05-23-2017 (Tuesday) The Ball Begins!

Carly tells Bobbie that she caught Sonny and her ex-lawyer in bed together; Bobbie is stunned that is the prior association.  Bobbie tells Carly there is still life to be lived and adventures to be had, and people to be loved; they hug.  Joslyn comes in and says she wants in on the hug; they head to the ballroom.  As the Nurses’ Ball begins, Valentin begs Nina for another chance; he asks her what he can do to make it right.  After assuring her that Anna will never come between them again, he turns to see Anna enter the ballroom.  Nina is the spokeswoman for Crimson, doing the red carpet introductions with  Lopez.  Lucy is a mess, as usual, trying to get ready for her presentation at the Ball.  Lulu and Dante come in shortly after Charlotte walks in with her father.  (Lulu is getting huge and is wearing a poof-y gown to try to cover it up.)

Michael talks to his father; he is upset that Sonny has decided not to go to the Ball.  He asks if he and his mother really can’t even be in the same ballroom together; Sonny says it wouldn’t be good for anyone.  Sonny decides to spend his time looking through Morgan’s medical records; he notices something and makes a phone call.  Andre shows up; he tells Michael that the pharmacy swears they dispensed 600 ml pills to Morgan, so they don’t understand where the 300 ml’s came from… but, he says, even that low dose wouldn’t have caused Morgan to spiral out of control like he did.  Andre says he had to have been taking no Lithium at all.  Sonny notices something crushed on the bottom of the bottle; Andre takes the sample and goes to have it tested.  Sonny sits down and turns the Ball on television; he sees Ava enter, bragging about her donation in Morgan’s honor.

Franco and Elizabeth, Jake, Sam and Jason, all show up together; Sam asks Jason what is wrong because she notices he is deep in thought.  He says he just can’t shake the feeling that something is wrong; Jake is prepared for his magic act.  He says he has been dreaming about Helena; he wonders, if everything is okay, why she is there.  Felix shows up with Aphiphany, and right behind them is Nurse Amy.  Mario asks her if she is there alone; Nathan runs up and takes her arm, telling Mario she is there with him.  Mario asks where his beautiful wife is and he says she is working, but there in spirit.Michael greets his mother at the Nurses’ Ball; he asks Bobbie if she saw Nelle today.  She says she did; Joslyn is surprised to hear that Nelle is in the hospital and asks what happened.   Bobbie tells her about the mugging.  They go into the ballroom and are greeted by Mario and Nina; Carly slyly avoids them, giving one short comment.  They get their picture taken.

Curtis and Jordan arrive; he tells the camera that there is going to be a surprise.  “George” asks what kind of surprise; Curtis says they will have to wait and see.  Lucy tells Ava that she hopes Sonny “skewers” her, but she’s happy it won’t be tonight.Lucy announces the start of the Ball; she says it was 24 years ago that they had the first Nurses’ Ball.  The nurses of GH put on a previously recorded song and dance routine, taped in the hospital.  Nurse Amy has a beautiful voice, singing, “You’re Not Alone Anymore.”  All of the sudden, all of the nurses, dressed in their scrubs, burst through the doors of the ballroom and end up dancing on stage.  Nina asks her brother how she can ever forgive Valentin; Valentin turns around to see Nina standing behind them.  Jason goes to the bar to get a drink for he and Sam; Jake shows his magic kit – and the “surprise” to Charlotte and Emma.  Anna catches Valentin and asks him once again to be honest with her about who he sold the Chimera project to; he is angry that her sister had tricked him.  Jason finds Anna’s Chimera necklace on the floor and picks it up.  Carly admits that she misses Sonny; Sonny steps in the door.
