Trina meets Stella at the café for breakfast. She tells her aunt how she’s been selling many pieces at the gallery. Stella is glad her art appreciation has returned, but it’s time for her to return to school. Stella can see she is stalling and thinks she’s afraid of taking the next step. She advises that Spencer wouldn’t want her to put her life on hold forever, and it’s time for her to reach for her dreams again. Stella knows that Spencer died, but Trina didn’t, and she still has her life ahead of her.

Trina is uncertain GH

Stella reminds her that she used to talk about wanting to be a professor of art or a museum curator, which would require degrees. Trina admits going back to school feels scary. Stella understands but suggests she do it for her future self and the options school today will give her tomorrow. Trina knows she’s right, and Stella suggests they go to PCU and get her registered for the fall. Trina replies, “Let’s do it; let’s get unstuck.”

Nina and Sasha chat GH

Outside the boathouse, Willow is doing yoga when a wet Drew emerges fresh from a swim. Willow gets slightly off balance and almost falls over, so Drew swoops in to catch her. She quickly pulls away, and after some small talk, Willow says she should get going and can’t run away from him fast enough.

Drew catches Willow GH

Back in the kitchen, Sasha asks if Nina and Drew have been taking time out of their busy schedules to spend time together, but Nina says they haven’t. Sasha can see how dedicated she is to helping Drew. Nina admits they could pick things back up after he wins. Suddenly, Willow appears on the porch and appears to have overheard them talking.

Willow finally steps into the kitchen, saying she smells Sasha’s famous scones.

Sasha returns with tea, and Willow congratulates her on the catering gig. Sash admits she’s still unsure about it, and Willow notes there is a lot of that going around. Sasha finally comes clean about the Fourth of July, and that she saw her and Drew kissing. She gets the feeling what happened is weighing on her, and if she needs to talk, she’s here. Willow calls it just a kiss, and they were simply caught up in a moment. A second later, she breaks down and says it happened a second time.

Willow's life is a mess GH

They sit down, and Willow admits she has feelings for Drew, but she loves Michael and her life with him. Willow cries that she’s trying to keep her distance from Drew, but Sasha points out they all live together, so that has to be difficult. Willow insists she’s done everything she can to avoid Drew, including returning to General Hospital. She thought being away from Drew would stop these feelings, but it hasn’t, and she cries that she feels so out of control. Sasha comforts her and understands how she could have feelings for Drew as he saved her life. However, if she loves Michael, she needs to keep staying away from Drew and says they have all made mistakes. Willow thanks her for not judging her. Sasha admits she’s far from perfect. Willow still doesn’t know what she’s to do.

Sasha supports Willow GH

Nina heads to the boathouse, where Drew is drying off. Nina tells him about the fundraiser she is planning, but he cuts her off and says it’s not working for him. He’s starting to doubt himself, his private life is a mess, he’s down four points, and his opponent has the whole family thing going for her. Nina tells Drew that he has Scout, but he won’t use her as a prop. Nina suggests, “Then use me.” She says she could be with him at every event on his arm, and there is no harm in letting the voters assume they are the newest power couple. He asks, “You’d do that for me?” She admits she owes him one, and he laughs, “You do.”

Nina and Drew get an idea GH

At Michael’s office, Sam grills him about Kristina and where she was the night John Cates died, noting they’ve been attached at the hip lately. Michael admits he wasn’t with her but knows she didn’t kill Cates. She says he sounds sure, so does he know who did? He steers the conversation back to why she’s concerned about Kristina. Sam knows her mother is protecting Kristina and has now framed herself for a murder she didn’t commit. The only way to free her mom is to find the person who killed Cates, and they both know either Sonny killed him or gave the order.

Sam wants answers GH

Michael again shifts the topic and says finding the guilty party is not the way to go, as it will take too long, and they need to find the gun and clear Kristina and Alexis. Sam says she hopes they find the evidence to clear her mother, but if they don’t, will he let an innocent woman go to prison? She then storms out.

Sam questions Michael GH

At Sonny’s, he’s on the phone telling someone that Alexis doesn’t know he’s called them for help, and money is no object. He has to end the call when Molly shows up at his door. He invites her in, and she tells him that her mom is being arraigned today. He knows and is going to the courthouse to support her, but Molly says that is the worst thing he can do. She says he will taint her by association. Sonny says he wants to be there for Alexis and Kristina, and he will pay her bail. She says he won’t, the family will find a way to pay it, and this isn’t about Kristina but her mother.

Sonny and Molly talk GH

Sonny says Kristina has been through a lot lately, so he needs to be there to support both Alexis and his daughter. Molly lashes out Kristina’s dutiful devotion to him is what led her to Ava’s suite and the loss of her baby. Sonny argues she never went there expecting to lose a baby, and this is all Ava’s fault. Molly retorts that Kristina should never have gone there and tells Sonny they don’t need or want him in court today. As for what is best for Kristina, she says that is to see their mom make bail. Sonny says her point has been made, and he won’t go. However, since he can’t be there for Kristina, she must put her anger away for now and be there for her sister. He doesn’t think Kristina will be able to handle this. Molly won’t make any promises and walks out.

Molly gives orders GH

Michael arrives later and asks if he disposed of the gun, and Sonny says Jason took care of it. Michael warns him that Sam has her suspicions about him and will do anything she can to find the evidence to clear her mother. He also says Kristina has time she can’t account for, and knowing Kristina, she won’t let her mom take the fall for this.

Michael and Sonny talk GH

Sonny never wanted his son to see what he did. He admits that when he saw Michael standing there, for a moment, he thought, “He’s got me now.” Sonny says he had the power to put him away, but Michael chose not to. Sonny says he’ll never forget that, and he loves him. Michael says he loves him too, and he’ll always choose their family. They embrace.

Kristina is let in to see Alexis in the interrogation room at the station. She hates seeing her mom like this, so she plans to confess. She admits she went to the Quartermaine mansion that night to kill John, but she couldn’t do it, and that’s when she went to the cemetery. Kristina thinks if they tell the police, they can retrace her movements that night and get her mom off the hook. Alexis says it won’t help, it will only make her look even more guilty.

Kristina wants to confess GH

Alexis tells her if she doesn’t make her look guiltier by coming forward, then she’ll only incriminate herself. Alexis councils Kristina what she just said about wanting to kill Cates, that she should never say it again and not try to help her. Dex interrupts as it is time for the arraignment. They are left alone again, and Alexis tells Kristina she likely won’t face charges as the real killer will be found and to let her handle this.

Alexis warns Kristina NO!

Kristina meets with Sam outside the courtroom and asks if she’s seen her dad. Molly appears and announces Sonny won’t be here, and that’s for the best. Kristina assumes Molly told him not to come. Molly confirms she did, as she’s trying to do what’s best for their mother, and she should be too. Kristina walks into the courtroom and sits down in a huff. Molly sits behind Kristina, while Sam sits next to Kristina.

A prosecutor is brought in, and Molly doesn’t recognize him. Alexis is then escorted in. She gives a nod to her girls. The court begins, and the judge asks the councilor to introduce himself. The man states his name is Reynolds, and he’s an FBI agent who is there to prosecute the killer of one of their own.

Alexis makes her case GH

When asked how she pleads, Alexis states she is not guilty. She asks for bail to be set and for her to be let go on her own recognizance as an officer of the court. Reynolds argues Alexis is dangerous and should be held in custody without bail. Reynolds points out that the defendant has been to prison on assault before and procured a firearm illegally. She counters this is a bail hearing, not a trial. Reynolds points out that she shares a child with Sonny Corinthos, who could quickly fly her off to any country they don’t have an extradition treaty with.

Alexis objects to Reynold’s speculation about her. She points out that she is a mother and grandmother and is not a flight risk. She also says the evidence is circumstantial, so she again asks for bail to be set. The judge notes she is a talented lawyer but decides to hold Alexis without bail, and she will be remanded to Pentonville until trial.

Kristina and Molly are shocked GH

Next on General Hospital, Kristina cries out in court after the judge refuses to grant Alexis bail. Liz tells Ric, “That almost sounded like an apology.” In Pentonville, Heather is hopeful. Felica offers someone her help. Dante isn’t thrilled by what he’s told. Natalia tells Sonny they are bound to catch the real killer eventually.
