Portia (Brook Kerr) receives criticism from Curtis (Donnell Turner) for her dishonesty. She explains that Jordan (Tanisha Harper) and Stella (Vernee Watson) were aware of her ruse. The Jerome Gallery is where Trina (Tabyana Ali) and Spencer (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) go to hide. She updates him on the exciting events. The two then share an embrace.

Esme takes advantage of the chance to flee when Felicia (Kristina Wagner) gains the upper hand on Ryan (Jon Lindstrom). Ava (Maura West) and Felicia are under the control of an armed Heather while Ryan pursues his daughter.

In other scenes, Laura (Genie Francis) informed Kevin (also Jon Lindstrom) about the relationship between Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) and Ryan, and Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) figured out who The Hook was.

GH Recaps: Tuesday, February 21

Heather took great pleasure in telling Ava that Ryan had forced Esme on her. She then surrenders her weapon and urges Ava to finally put an end to Ryan. In a clearing, Ava approaches Ryan, shoots him in the arm, then steadies herself to fire the fatal shot. The group then adds another component of the jigsaw after Alexis informs them that Heather is The Hook: Esme’s mother is Heather. The police arrive at Wyndemere… Esme breaks into the palace while in labor. Curtis is urged by Marshall (Robert Gossett) to stay committed to his wife.

When Michael (Chad Duell) shows up, Sonny presents himself as the salesperson. Sonny yells when Michael refuses him.

Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) approaches Heather while posing as her attorney and observes in amazement as Heather conjures a tale for her own benefit. When Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), who had been informed by Cody (Josh Kelly), stops the conversation, Sasha makes it obvious that she intends to discredit Heather’s claim of insanity. Dex (Evan Hofer), who was working against Sonny, told Josslyn (Eden McCoy) what he was up to and then offered to let her determine how he should continue.
