Wed Mar 20, 2024: Molly urges Alexis not to return to the law, Chase wonders to BLQ if he should quit being a cop, and Sonny gives Natalia parenting advice.
Tuesday’s GH recap: Anna turned Dex away when he confessed that Sonny ordered him to put a hit on Cyrus, and BLQ taught Danny to lawyer up.
Tracy arrives at the stables and finds Cody teaching James about lassoes.
She asks the stable hand about how her horse is doing.
James accuses her of being mean to him while his friend is in the hospital.
He explains he’s there to cheer Cody up.
Tracy tells him he’s a really good friend. She explains she went to see Dante today.
They send James off to sweep and she notes how much kids seem to like Cody.
She’s surprised when he mentions he’s been giving the kids riding lessons.
James has been coming by to see him after hearing what happened to Dante.
James calls for help after spilling some oats.
He and Cody clean them up and James asks Tracy to help.
She says she’s the boss and the kid says a boss should help too and hands her a broom.
Once they clean, James gets a high-five from Tracy and tells her she’s a good boss.
She invites them to the house for hot chocolate.
BLQ goes home, complaining about cops before noticing Chase is thinking.
She assumes something is wrong.
He says there has been no chance with Dante.
The cop worries about his partner and what happened and she tells him not to worry about what-ifs.
He did his job and Dante is still breathing.
Chase wonders if he shouldn’t be a cop anymore. She says he should quit and they can pick up his singing career where it left off.
He doesn’t want to be a singer. He wants to be a cop.
She tells him what a great cop he is because he follows all the procedures.
She starts complaining about Cates interrogating Danny.
That sounds out of character to Chase. She thinks that Cates is a jerk.
He’s startled to hear she threatened the Fed. He points out that’s a federal crime.
He’s on her side, but she should be more careful. She agrees to show mercy.
Chase admits he wishes he could have seen her lay into him. He loves it when she’s hot and fired up.
Molly joins her mom at the cafe. Alexis tells her she might not be missing the law for much longer.
She explains that Diane may have found a loophole to get her back to the law.
She never had the chance to defend herself and can attack the character of Julian and Britt.
Diane has filed a petition to get the appeal going. All Molly can say is wow.
Her mom expected more. “Don’t do it,” Molly suggests.
This surprises her mother so Molly explains that she grew up wanting to be her.
If this were just about the law, she would support this.
But she likes her better sober than drinking. If this doesn’t work out, she could fall off the wagon again.
Alexis admits that it will likely end in disappointment but Diane’s suggestion got her heart beating again.
If there’s even the tiniest chance that she could do what she loves them most, she need to take it.
Molly agrees to support her if she wants to go ahead with this, but begs her to monitor herself and keep going to meetings.
Her mom promises to stay the course but she can’t promise that she won’t drink. Molly feels selfish but her mom tells her to be selfish.
“I really need my mom right now,” says Molly.
Valentin arrives at The Invader office.
Nina complains that Alexis is supposed to be there to meet with them but blew them off.
She explains that Alexis is trying to force her gossip columnist to quit and pitches what a great idea it was to bring him in.
Alexis decided to delay his pieces until they were old news and irrelevant and published an extremely biased article against Sonny.
Valentin thinks the paper went too easy on him. She worries Sonny could think he’s lashing out.
Valentin says the article won’t make any difference if the mobster wants her back.
Nina can’t control the divorce but thought she could control the newspaper.
He wonders why a brilliant woman is torturing herself with Sonny.
He hates to see her bend over backward for an erratic hypocrite who isn’t worthy of her.
It was a relief to him to hear she and Sonny were headed for divorce.
He doesn’t feel worthy of her either.
But he hopes she can remember who she really is. A marvel and a rule-breaker.

That made it clear to him he had to let her stand up to make her own decisions.
