General Hospital recap for Tuesday, March 21, 2023. In today’s GH episode, Michael has a warning for Dex and Joss, Sonny tells Dante about his problems with Nina, and Anna orders Maxie to follow Lucy’s commands.
We also have Monday’s GH recap where Lucy surprised Maxie when she came out of hiding, Carly bumped into Valentin, and Sonny told Nina she needs to stay away from him.
Dante stops by Sonny’s penthouse to check on him. The cop explains that Rocco noticed Nina was upset. Sonny admits it and it’s his fault.
He explains that Nina has come in contact with the realities of his world. He’s taken steps to protect those around him. He hopes that Nina will come back when this is over.
Dante asks why she would walk away. Sonny says things have been relatively peaceful since he got back from Nixon Falls. He thinks he misrepresented his life to her.
His son asks him if the life of crime is the life he wants if Nina isn’t in it. Sonny says it’s too late for him to choose anything else.
Dante tells him he liked that “Mike” was calmer and prioritized family over business. Sonny says it can’t be like that any more.
He’s determined to resolve this situation and get Nina back. Dante points out there will always be another situation.
He tells his father he will always be there for him. They hug.
Michael starts banging on Dex’s door and yelling in. Dex and Joss pull on their clothes as her brother barges in.
She immediately guesses he’s Dex’s mystery boss. Michael tells his sister to go. She explains she already knows everything.
Michael is miffed and declares the job is over. He orders Dex to leave town tonight.
Dex says he can fire him but can’t make him leave. He can’t leave Joss.
She says the best option is for Dex to finish his mission and give the dirt on Sonny to the Feds. Michael says he’s prepared to take the fallout from the rest of the family for this but he doesn’t want it to fall on her.
Michael wishes he’d pulled the plug on this months ago. Dex admits he’s lied to him about Joss but nothing else.
He tells Michael there was an attempt on Sonny’s life. Now Sonny trusts him more than ever.
Stomping, Michael tells his sister again that she can’t be part of this. If Sonny finds out they are together, this will fail and Dex won’t live through this.
Once frustrated Michael leaves, Dex makes it clear he can’t risk being seen with Joss. She doesn’t like it but gets it. He offers to figure out a way for them to meet in secret.
They kiss. Neither of them have any regrets. She leaves looking worried.
