General Hospital recap for Wednesday, October 5, 2022. In today’s GH episode, Carly goes on television to plead her case, TJ worries about Willow, while Sonny   

We also have Thursday’s GH recap where Valentin offered Michael a deal and Drew convinced Carly not to blame herself for what her friend’s father did, while Ava taunted Ryan.

With Drew at her side, Carly fights on WHJV-TV about moving the cemetery. The reporter asks where she was months ago.

Why should residents listen to her now?” Carly explains her friend was taking care of everything for her.

Tara, the reporter says if she’d visited her mother, she would have seen this happening.

Carly knows but either way, this is the same story of the haves protecting themselves from the have-nots.

The reporter and her camera crew take off and Carly remembers the day her mom was put to rest.

She should have done more like be on the paperwork. She could have been a part of the original fight for this change. She says some nice things about her mom.

She thinks Virginia deserved better. Carly wonders why she hasn’t changed her name and thinks it’s time she stopped being Carly Corinthos and became someone else.

She knows Monica would go nuts if she used Quartermaine. They laugh. She asks if Drew was tempted to use another name. He says no because he’s proud of his tours.

Later, they read a story online about Carly and how she’s got a history of erratic behavior and has been institutionalized and involved in an automobile accident….”Yeah. They’re coming after me,” Carly says to her sounding board.

TJ finds Willow at the hospital looking at her latest bloodwork, which isn’t good.

He asks what she’ll do about it. He worries she has too much on her plate.

Willow doesn’t want to hear it but he’s telling her as a friend that her schedule would exhaust anyone not in her situation.

She knows but she can’t let Michael know what’s up or he’ll only worry.

He says he’ll support her. They embrace.

Nearby, Nina talks to Curtis about planning next year’s Nurses Ball at Metro Court.

He takes in her excitement and thinks running the place agrees with her. She says it’s despite Carly and Joss, who sets the tone for Avery and Donna.

It’s clear Joss hates her. Curtis can understand. Trina hates him, too. Later, Nina walks by TJ hugging Willow, and stops in her tracks to watch. She thinks Willow is cheating on Michael.

She stops Willow once their embrace ends and asks slyly if she got good news.

She puts Nina off and Nina questions if she’s taking on too much since she looks pale. She’s got so much on the go.

She wonders what’s there at the hospital that Willow can’t seem to take her eyes off of it. Willow narrows her eyes. Nina talks about that embrace with Dr. Ashford and how it might look to some.

Elsewhere, Curtis and TJ talk about Trina taking the offer and how angry she was at him. All the progress they made has evaporated. TJ doubts she’ll stay mad for long.

At Spring Ridge, Ava tells Ryan about Esme not watching her step.

She doubts anyone will lay eyes on her again.

Ryan makes a fist with his hand and Ava comments that he looks genuinely upset.

She’ll talk to his doctor about his neuro to see if there’s no change.

She goes and he wonders what she did to his daughter.

He fantasizes to himself that he stood up and attacked Ava and choked her, demanding to know what he did to his daughter.

Esme spies on Trina outside Kelly’s as she calls Ava to meet.

When Ava arrives, she says she lost track of time seeing Ryan at Spring Ridge.

Trina asks why she’d do that. Ava says he once used a hook to kill someone. She needed to ensure he was not the Hook Killer.

Esme watches as Ava says she doesn’t think it was him. Trina worries about her but Ava’s healing well. The cops call.

Dex doesn’t feel good and asks her not to, causing Joss to take off. Dex goes after her and Michael demands to know what happened to Sonny.

Sonny asks the man who calls himself Carver, “What’s with the knives?” They never talked about using those on the man.

Carver says they work faster. He wanted a confession.

Sonny wanted the truth, not a made-up confession to get the dude to stop cutting him.

He shares that Diane thinks a woman attacked her which means Dex is innocent. “Lucky for you!” Sonny’s pissed and won’t be using his services again.

Back at Kelly’s, Joss appears and Ava tells the women that Diane woke up and says a woman attacked her.

Joss talks about how terrible Sonny is for what he did to Dex. Ava takes off.

Joss continues her tirade and Trina wonders if the reason Dex didn’t want to call the cops is that he doesn’t hate Sonny as much as Joss. Trina points out that she’s been where Joss is.

With Spencer. Getting involved with those two men can cost.

Michael finds Dex and fires him and hands him a big check. He didn’t intend for him to die when taking Sonny down.

Dex knew it was a risky job. Michael didn’t know his father was capable of torturing him with a knife. Job is over.

Dex can’t accept it. Michael has to get his dad on organized crime.

Dex thinks that Sonny feels bad for misjudging him and he’ll be able to use it to get closer to him. Michael nods.

Dex sees honor in fighting Sonny who decided to hang him in a meat locker overnight. He could have been killed or cut to ribbons and the next guy may not be that lucky.

Michael agrees not to fire him and says to stay away from Joss. He believes they’re better off without Sonny in their lives.

Dex agrees to it but he’ll stay away from Joss since he doesn’t like lying to her.

Ava goes to Sonny at Pozzulo’s to tell him that Dex saved her life and Diane reported that a woman attacked her.

She’s concerned about the man’s welfare. Sonny says he’s in no danger.

She’s glad but questions the reason behind it. He says he was protecting his family. Ava thinks Dex is a keeper.
