Joss, Carly and Valentin Team Up, Sort of — Plus, Laura and Ezra Do the Same!
Thursday, April 16, 2026: Today on General Hospital, Cullum threatens both Britt and Cassius, Dante tries to reconnect with Rocco and Danny, and Lucas decides to take Cullum and Sidwell down.

Joss stops by her mom’s house to see Valentin and won’t take no for an answer. Carly asks what “Agent Jacks” will do if she refuses, and Joss says they both know she can get through her if she wants.
Carly brings Valentin down to the kitchen, and Joss wants intel on Ross Cullum. She says they need to work together if they are going to take Cullum down. Valentin notes he’s going to need something from her first, so she tells him that Cullum is a double agent and working with Sidwell.

Valentin reveals Cullum is the agency’s real expert on Faison. He may have been undermining the WSB the entire time by bringing down Faison. Valentin also believes whatever happened to Anna is Cullum’s doing, as she clearly knew too much and was in the way.
Valentin warns Joss that Cullum will eventually figure out who she is, and then, she’ll be as good as dead. Carly wants Joss out of this, but Agent Jacks says this is bigger than all of them, and the stakes are too high. She storms out, and Carly knows Joss won’t stop, and she’s scared. Valentin says she should be!

Is This a New Ezra?
At The Brown Dog, Laura watches as the bartender cuts Ezra off, and she begins filming on her phone as the councilman threatens to take the bar’s liquor license away.
Laura finally intervenes and tells the bartender that she’ll handle Ezra. Laura shows him the video she taped of his ranting, and he asks if she’s going to leak it to the press or put it online. She says she didn’t take the video to hurt him, but to show him how badly he’s behaving in public. Laura says she could call Dante and put him in the drunk tank, or he can come home with her.

Laura gets a very drunk Ezra home, and he assumes she brought him there for some hanky-panky. She shoots him down quickly, so he asks why he’s here. She says he’s drunk in the middle of the afternoon and is here to sober up in private.

Ezra, showing a rare sympathetic side, reveals he knows about Dalton’s murder and that Sidwell has framed her. He doesn’t want to be the next corpse she finds in her truck. Ezra laments that he wishes he’d seen it before now: he’s in business with a killer and is just in too deep to get out clean.
Ezra cries that he’s expendable, as Sidwell has Laura now. Laura says they are in this together, and maybe they can get out of this together. Laura goes to make him a cup of coffee and warns him not to get sick in her living room!

Sidwell Wants Results!
Cassius arrives at Wyndemere to see Jenz and reveals that he’s been made the lead detective in the investigation into Marco’s murder. Jenz would rather a real detective investigate his son’s murder. Cassius says he’s working with a team of real detectives, and frankly, Sidwell won’t like what they’ve found out.
Cassius tells him both Jason and Sonny have airtight alibis, and given the photos he has of Sonny, he wouldn’t cross him like this. Also, the murderer got close enough to Marco to stab him, which means Marco knew and trusted his killer.

Cassius points out that there is a gap in Lucas’ timeline. They can’t account for his whereabouts when Marco was murdered. Sidwell refuses to hear it, as Lucas loved his son, so he should concentrate on finding the real killer. Cassius says whoever did this took Marco’s phone, which could be a problem given the evidence on it against them.
Sidwell orders Cassius to speak to Cullum, as they need to get more of his sister’s meds. Sidwell asks if there is anything else. Cassius thinks about his conversation with Joss regarding Faison, but says there is nothing more.

Boys Play Ball
Danny and Rocco meet Dante at the batting cage, but neither boy is up for batting practice. Danny speaks with Rocco privately for a second and asks what has been up with him, as he barely even answers his texts these days. Rocco explains that his hand got infected, and he just hasn’t been feeling great.
After Dante pulls his shoulder, warming up, and blames it on his tight shirt, the boys laugh. Dante is glad to see them smiling and laughing again. Dante tells Danny they are here for him, and his mom would want them to stick together. Danny decides to practice and leaves Dante to talk with Rocco.

Dante notes Rocco is still pretty quiet and assumes his son is still upset at how he treated Gio. Dante notes that things between him and Gio are improving. Rocco says that’s not what is bothering him, and claims he just feels bad for Danny, who has neither of his parents now. The boy also feels guilty, as Rocco explains he doesn’t know how to talk to him. Dante suggests he fix that now.
Rocco speaks with Danny and apologizes for not being around lately. Danny knows Rocco cares about him, and the fact is nobody can do anything, and nobody knows anything about what happened that night. That’s what bothers Danny the most.

Britt and Lucas Play a Dangerous Game
At General Hospital, Britt goes to see Cullum, who knew she’d show up to beg for her life eventually. She tells him she worked things out with her brother and Sidwell, and he is back in line and just wants her medicine.
Cullum says he has a bullet hole in his back, so their deal has changed. She’ll get her doses when she produces results. He also wants to know who shot him, as they both know it wasn’t Jason. She tells him she saw no one else, she was unconscious, and when she woke up, Jason told her that he shot him.

Lucas interrupts them and tells Britt it’s unprofessional for her to be here, as her boyfriend shot this man. Britt leaves, and Cullum thanks Lucas for saving his life.
Lucas later meets with Britt in her office to discuss Cullum. Britt says Cullum has Marco’s phone and likely knows Lucas’ part in what happened, so they have no choice but to try and survive and hope the WSB busts Sidwell and Cullum. Lucas won’t accept that and vows to stop Cullum himself.

Meanwhile, Cassius checks in on Cullum, and to warn him that Sidwell has been erratic, and wants him to find Marco’s killer.

In The Show’s Final Moments
Laura returns to her living room and finds Ezra passed out on her sofa. She covers him with a blanket.
Danny asks Rocco if Britt has mentioned what happened on the pier and why his dad did this. Rocco says he hasn’t spoken to her. Danny comments that he figured, as if Rocco knew anything, he’d tell him… Twist that knife a little more, Danny!
Lucas tells Britt that he’s staying at Wyndemere, which puts him in the perfect position, and Cullum and Sidwell won’t see him coming. She calls this a death wish.
In his living room, Sidwell looks at a photo of Marco and Lucas, and Cassius’ words about Lucas start to get to him. Oh, brother, watch out, Lucas!
Cassius tells Cullum the PCPD has no suspects at this time in Marco’s murder. In the meantime, his sister needs meds. Cullum says Britt will get her meds when he gets progress. Cullum reminds Cassius he can blow up his life just as easily as he can Britt’s.

Joss goes to the hospital and begins stalking Cullum’s room. She spots “Nathan” leaving it.
Finally, Carly tells Valentin that this news changes everything, and Sidwell and Cullum are a bigger threat than Jack. They have to face the fact that they may have to let Jack walk free, as she can’t lose Joss. Valentin promises nothing will happen to her or her daughter while he’s around.
On the next General Hospital, Nina finds someone shocking in her living room (Valentin), Willow warns someone (likely Jacinda, as she’s at Crimson) to stay away from her children, and Kristina asks Michael if he’s saying he has proof that Willow shot Drew.
