Ava wakes up coughing – and chokes up a
feather with blood on it, then looks down and sees blood all over her lap; oh, wait... it’s
just a dream. Cristina greets Alexis
when she walks in the door, asking how her business trip was and what type of
case she was working on (then tells her she knows exactly where she was). Anna is on the phone telling someone she has
to get going; she doesn’t want Carlos to relocate again… Sonny rings her
doorbell. Paul tries to talk to Carly
about Carlos, but she is trying not to get involved – he tells her his office
is doing everything they can to catch him and she tells him they are not doing
a very good job. Ava condemns Scott for
allowing someone into her bedroom; he says he didn’t see anything. Julian shows up to look at the scene.
Paul has suspicions now that Anna might have
tampered with his phone… Sonny asks Anna where she’s going and insists on going
with her when he finds out she’s going after Carlos. DA Hornsby shows up at Anna’s door as Sonny is leaving; he
deduces that they are going hunting for Carlos Rivera. Alexis admits she was wrong thinking she
knew Cristina better than Cristina knows herself. Sam and Jason discuss their afterglow, and their feelings about
being back together – they look very happy.
Ava believes it is Sonny who left the dead bird in her bed; Julian isn’t
so sure. He reminds her that she
doesn’t have the backing of the family to retaliate even if it was him – he
thinks it’s their own associates doing.
Carly is mad when Sonny tells her he’s leaving. She begs him not to go.
Alexis apologizes over and over and over,
asking for Cristina’s forgiveness. Sam begins
to worry about what other people are going to think about them spending the
night together; Jason comforts Sam by saying they are starting fresh, but not
starting over. Cristina admits that
this is not entirely her mother’s fault; it isn’t the first secret she’s kept –
and she’s still confused about who she is.
They agree to be confused together… and then Alexis asks what they are
going to do about Cristina’s father.
Sonny and Carly are still having it out over his planned departure;
Carly is getting pretty upset. She
suggests Ava might take advantage of Sonny being gone and come take Avery
away. Ava asks why Julian did fix
things like he said he would… he told her he tried, there’s just no coming back
from her betrayal to the family, as they see it. Cristina asks her mom not to tell Sonny. Sonny tells Carly he knows she can handle
this; he has to go. They kiss, but
Carly is obviously worried.
Ava tells
Julian she will have to accept Paul’s offer of protection; he tells her no she
doesn’t… he’s not going anywhere. He
says he is going to take care of this – she reminds him that he said that
before. He tells her he knows what
measures are needed to take care of this now.
Paul is asking Anna to leave this alone (he doesn’t want her going after
Carlos because he doesn’t want Carlos to be able to testify against him). Paul asks her to think about their families,
if they get locked up… Anna says she would prefer that her family sees that she
lives in truth, rather than die a liar.
Carly goes to Jason’s new place to ask him for help; she is surprised to
see Sam there. Julian meets with his
associate – tells him that his sister is off limits, says whoever didn’t back
off when he told them to is going to be very sorry. Ava fires Scott when he returns; she tells him to leave, but then
asks him to stay (at least to share his cream cheese). Sonny comes downstairs to find Carly
gone. Carly explains that this is
really urgent; she tells Jason that Sonny needs him. Hahaha… Paul tries to call and turn Anna in so she can’t leave,
but when turns his back she pours chloroform on a rag, and when he sits down on
the couch she covers his mouth and holds him tight, until he drops to the
floor.
As a faithful viewer of General Hospital for thirty+ years, I'm getting concerned for the fate of the show. My other two favorites were cancelled a few years ago; All my Children and One Life to Live, ever-so-briefly revived on the internet, not to yet be seen again, are lost for good it seems. My intention is not only to keep viewers who might have missed out on episodes informed of what is going on, but also to point out the stupidity occasionally written into episodes. Watch out writers!

Alexis goes to
meet Parker, and asks if she took advantage of her daughter. Carly asks Sonny to ignore the lead he got
on Carlos. Curtis tells Nikolas that
they had proof he tried to kill ‘his wife’ - Hayden tells Nicolas he is not calling
the shots anymore. Sam is wondering
what happened to Nicolas, that he would try to kill someone to keep them in the
dark – he was always the “good Casadine” – she says it just doesn’t make
sense. How could he have gone this
far?
Julian comes to talk to Cristina because Alexis told him what was going on with her… he tells her Alexis is disappointed in herself. Parker tells Alexis questioning your sexuality can lead to an entire identity crisis; Alexis explains how dysfunctional all of Cristina’s relationships with men have been. Parker swears all she has tried to be to Cristina is a friend – Cristina took it in a direction it shouldn’t have gone. She is terrified of rejection now; afraid of losing her family’s love. Alexis realizes she didn’t handle things well, and she needs to do better. Lucas tries to tell Cristina to give her mom a break… Sam confronts Nikolas. It turns into an all-out brawl; Curtis tries to step in, Jason knocks him to the ground and bloodies Nikolas’ face. Sam stops Jason short of killing Nikolas; they get out of there. Hayden ponders what she would have done if Jason had killed Nikoas (seems she really still loves him). I hate the way they never actually clean a wound or wipe blood away in a television show; Hayden dabs a napkin in water and pats Nikolas’ forhead lightly then holds his face, blood streaming down his check, left unwiped.
Back at home, Sam and Jason proceed to make love. Parker tells Alexis she hopes Cristina finds someone who’s worthy of her love; Christina calls Parker and Parker tells her Alexis just left. Sonny and Carly talk about keeping Avery and their chances in court. Ava gets ready to go to bed and finds a dead bird under her covers. When Hayden and Nikolas lay down for bed, they each grab a knife for protection. The episode ends with a scene of Sam and Jason making love.

Nikolas tells
Elizabeth he is going home to Hayden and that’s all she needs to know; he packs
his bags. Griffin plays with Emma
(cute). Anna gets a visit from Sonny;
she reminisces about Duke. Dante asks
Michael if he knows what Sonny’s plans are for Carlos Rivera; Michael denies
any knowledge. Tracy wakes up from her
most recent seizure; her boys come in, not yet knowing what happened. Dr. Finn tells Dillon and Ned that the
larval cyst has caused fluid swelling in the brain; she may need surgery.
Hayden tells Curtis she doesn’t have a death wish and is not giving up what’s
hers – Nikolas owes her for trying to take her life. She explains she grew up a certain way; she had things, and she
can’t be left without a cent. Curtis
tells her the need for money is like an addiction (well said). Elizabeth gets called to the hospital. Griffin gets called to the hospital too, and
Sonny gives Anna a flash drive (probably from the bug in his office). Sam comes to visit Nikolas and tells him
that Hayden was working with Tracy against him. Hayden denies being addicted to money; she tells Curtis that the
money isn’t for her – she wants to pay back her father’s investors. He doesn’t buy it. Nikolas thanks Sam for her work and tells her he is going home to
his wife ‘to work things out’ – Sam is stunned. Anna manages to get her hands on Paul’s phone and switch the SD
card back… he is none the wiser.
Nikolas walks in the door and says, “honey, I’m home” – he asks what the
plan is. She has a surprise for him…
Curtis is going to be staying with them for a while, to make sure they see
things eye-to-eye. Sam and Jason figure
out that Hayden was coming to the garage to tell him who he really was, and
Nikolas had her shot before she could.
Ta-da-da-da!
Monday 04-04-2016
Maxie isn’t taking the news
about Claudette well… and to think, she was ready to leave it in the past. Boy, Nathan might be sorry he didn’t listen
to her and stop talking when she told him she wasn’t going to borrow
trouble. Curtis tells Nina he knows who
is behind the sabotage… in walks Julian.
Now Curtis looks uncomfortable.
Nikolas asks Hayden what she means by ‘what she knows about him’ – she
says it’s time for him to pay for his bad decisions and even faultier
execution. Maxie is really mad; she
doesn’t want Nathan to even touch her right now… he asks her to please hear him
out. Nina introduces Curtis to Julian;
after a few minutes, it dawns on Nina that it was Julian. Dr. Finn has some anxiety issues; Elizabeth
seems to be a little taken by him – Albrecht tells her not to get used to him
being around… she says he won’t be there long.
Hayden tells Nikolas that she knows there was another hitman at the garage that day… the one he sent to kill her. Nina is throwing a fit, literally, throwing everything she can at Julian. Ok, Maxie says, tell me everything. He proceeds to tell her how he and Claudette met; and that he asked her to marry him on their second date. Jason and Sam go to visit Shawn in prison – she asked if he knew who she was; he didn’t. He tells them they aren’t the first ones to come to him with the theory that she was the intended target… Hayden herself thought the same thing. She tells Nikolas she found proof. She wants him to play the part of adoring husband and sign everything over to her; she calls it ironic. He tells her he thinks she still loves him. He tells her they could have a chance at something real, but not if she forces him to stay in this farce of a marriage.
Franco tells Elizabeth he is proud of her for standing on her own two feet; she thanks him. Tracy tells Dr. Finn she wants to go home; he tells her no, in fact, he says he will stay with her to make sure she stays. Elizabeth walks in on the end of Nikolas’ conversation with Hayden; she tells him dinner with be at 7, for two – and tells Elizabeth wherever she and her brats stayed last night, they can stay there again; she is no longer welcome at Wyndemere. Looks like Nikolas is contemplating killing Hayden once again. Hayden is asking Curtis to hide all the evidence he found on Nikolas, in case something happens to hers. He is surprised that she wants to stay with the guy… he advises her not to go back to Wyndemere at all. He walks Hayden home, even though he thinks it’s a bad idea for her to be there, unless she has a death wish. Elizabeth asks Nikolas if he is thinking about trying to have her killed again.
Nathan explains that he married Claudette because her greencard was expiring; it was a marriage of convenience, at first – he fell in love, but supposedly she didn’t. She left. He swears to her that she is the only one he thinks of now… it was the drugs talking, because of the glove Maxie found in his tux – it was Claudette’s. Dr. Finn walks with Tracy to the vending machine, until she gets a nose bleed and has another seizure.

Nathan and Dante come into the
gym to work out; Curtis is there. Nina
calls him to see if he’s found anything out about who is sabotaging the
magazine. Hayden shows up at Nikolas’ hotel
room door; she tries to convince him no to throw their marriage away, saying
the love was real. Maxie is hard at
work preparing the office for a special guest interview. Curtis insults Dante when Dante says that he
should treat Valerie with respect. Sam
comes to see Jason’s new apartment; he tells her the pictures he found make it
feel like home, even though he doesn’t remember them. I like the way they are working in a serious conversation,
between Cristina and Lucas, about a modern-day issue (the way many parents
react to a child telling them they are “maybe-possibly” gay); hopefully, this
will help somebody that might happen to have that conversation with their kid
to handle it with grace and love. Sam
fills Jason in on Raymond Berlin and his ponzi scheme; she tells him that they
need to keep investigating Hayden, she’s the best lead they have.
No matter how much Hayden tries to persuade Nikolas, he can’t seem to get over the fact that she was lying to him the whole time. Alexis talks to Julian about Cristina’s confession and how she handled it; she says, though, that she has a legitimate reason to be concerned. Maxie tells their special guest how much she admires him; he tells her she’s wearing a great pair of shoes. Maxie mentions that her boyfriend got them for her and a conversation ensues; he advises her not to “borrow trouble”, to leave the past in the past. Sam and Jason try to figure out if the bullet that hit Hayden might have actually been meant for her. They think there might have been a second shooter. As Nikolas holds Hayden’s head in his hands, he looks as if he wants to choke her; he tells her their farce of a marriage is over. He tells her he is having it annulled; she closes his hotel room door and says, “I don’t think so.” Lucas tells Cristina to trust her own feelings and not worry about putting a label on herself or her sexuality. Maxie introduces Nathan to their special guest, Joe Z… he gets a call and has to fly back to L.A. He’ll facetime the feature; he’s thinking footwear. Nathan asks Maxie to go for a walk… he tells her that Claudette was his wife. Hayden tells Nikolas they are not getting a divorce – because of what she knows about him.
