Esme Gets in Trina’s Face and Trina Threatens Her, Michael Stops Brando From Attacking Smoltz

General Hospital recap for Friday, April 29, 2022. In today’s GH episode, Spencer continues manipulating Esme, Trina and Esme have it out, Sasha reveals to Willow her part in the accident, and Ava and Nikolas try to sort out their relationship. 

We also have Thursday’s GH recap where Harmony was rushed to the hospital after the car accident.

Ava wanders into the mansion and tries to sneak to bed. Nikolas appears out of nowhere. She asks if he’s been lurking there for her. He opens the doors to the living room and shows her the room set for romance with champagne. What could be better than spending time alone with his wife?

Nik tells her that Esme’s leaving but since she’s not gone yet, that pisses Ava off. She wants Esme to stay on the mainland. She doesn’t have her trust fund yet.

She’ll be leaving Spoon Island soon and so will their problems. Ava denies that their problems will just go away. Ava doesn’t trust him. He looks surprised but she tells him he doesn’t trust her, either.

He thinks this is because he chose his son over her. She denies that but says Esme’s not a part of their agreement, not as long as Esme remains a threat to Trina. He reminds her she went to Sonny when she had a problem, not him. She tells him that he was giving “that horrid little monster” the time of day.

Nik asks if she’s looking for a divorce. She tells him to stop pushing her away but reveals she couldn’t go through with the divorce. She loves him. He doesn’t believe her so she kisses him.

They move to the sofa for sex and she stops them. Sex isn’t the answer. He can’t fix them with a few grand gestures. She goes and he puts out the candles with champagne.

At the gallery, Trina will leave him a to-do list so he can go home to his phony, twisted witch who is the love of his life.

Spence denies that’s what she is and Esme pops out of hiding to ask what he was disputing. She brings up his jealousy earlier and he denies it.

When cites him for throwing away their friendship for a psycho, Esme shows herself. She calls Trina a psycho. Trina reminds her she’s just been hiding in the shadows — for who knows how long.

Esme says that Laura fixed it so she’s safe now. She lashes out at Trina for having a “good girl act.” She threatens that there will be consequences the next time Trina lies about her.

Trina tells Esme she sees her and soon, everyone else will too. “An entitled psychopath.”

She’ll be left alone with “nobody to fool except that idiot,” she says, looking at Spencer. She takes off and Esme growls that whenever she comes upon them, they’re sharing a moment.

He tells her that’ snot what happened. He lets her know about Rory being there. “You’re the one I have my eyes on,” he lies. Trina returns and stops when she overhears the two still talking.

When Esme says she can’t wait to have a front-row seat to Trina’s court case, Spencer yells at her to stop it. She’s scowling and for no reason. When this is over, she’ll never have to see Trina again.

At the hospital, Carly hugs Joss, who asks why she’s in the ER. Carly fills her in on Harmony attacking her and the events leading to the accident. Joss is astounded.

She asks why Harmony attacked her. Carly recalls Harmony burning documents that prove Harmony’s not Willow’s mother.

Carly vaguely tells her that she found a secret about her that Willow doesn’t know. Michael and Willow embrace as she wonders why her mother was walking down the road alone in the woods. They talk about forgiving her and how she never gave up on Willow.

Elsewhere, Sasha has a meltdown and reaches in her bag for drugs. She doesn’t get to take one when Gladys rushes up, wondering what’s become of Harmony. When Brando appears, she rushes into his arms. “It’s alright. I’ve got ya,” he tells her.

She sobs that it’s not okay and tells him about Paparazzo Felty (played by Brian Norris) who took photos of her, chased her in his car, and how she couldn’t see Harmony run into the road because his high beams were on. Brando calls it an accident but asks why he was following her. Gladys admits she stole his memory card so he couldn’t exploit her daughter. Sasha’s beside herself, knowing Willow will be horrified to learn what she did. She won’t forgive her and what’s more, Sasha won’t forgive herself.

Brando, Gladys and Sasha appear at the chapel. Sasha needs to talk to Willow, so Michael and Brando leave while Sasha reveals she’s the cause of the accident.

Willow’s jaw drops in shock. Sasha’s quick to apologize and Willow asks if she was with Carly and Alexis. Sasha wasn’t. Willow asks if it seemed like her mother jumped in front of her car on purpose.

Sasha stammers. She doesn’t know. It happened so fast but it seemed as though she didn’t see her. Willow cries and Sasha again is sorry this happened because of her.

“You’re the last person who deserves this.” She offers to get Michael. Willow just wants this to make sense.

By the elevators, Brando and Michael are stopped by Smoltz who reveals his source told him that Sasha ran down a pedestrian tonight. Michael’s mouth drops open.

Smoltz wants a quote and taunts Brando until Brando comes at him. Michael comes between them.

Brando threatens that he’ll ensure the reporter won’t be able to write another story if he gets in his face or near his wife’s again. Smoltz takes off, chastened, and Brando details the accident.

Michael’s shocked and asks how Sasha is. Brando says she’s devastated but hates hurting Willow.

Nearby, Gladys finds Carly and asks how Harmony is. She reveals Sasha ran her over. Carly asks where Sasha is and learns she’s telling Sasha the truth right now.

Gladys leaves when Joss turns up. Carly hugs her daughter. It’s been a devastating night. She dries tears and goes to see Willow, asking Sasha to leave them alone.

Meanwhile, Gladys holds the memory card from Felty’s camera as she gets on the elevator.
