General Hospital Recaps: Wedding Miss & Villains Unleashed

Catch up on this week’s juicy events in Port Charles on General Hospital.

The General Hospital recaps for February 13–17, 2023, included broken marriages, homeless criminals, damsels in distress—well, one dame and one dame—and much more.

General Hospital Recaps: Monday, February 13

Katelyn MacMullen’s Willow (Chad Duell) begs Michael (Chad Duell) to let her go home.

After berating Carly (Laura Wright) for hiding the fact that Willow and Nina (Cynthia Watros) were related biologically, Liesl (Kathleen Gati) asks her to speak up for Nina with Willow. Instead, Carly proposes to create a link between Willow and Liesl.

Michael is warned by Dex (Evan Hofer) that Sonny (Maurice Benard) would shortly deliver a consignment of illicit cargo to the Port Charles harbour.

As Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) go to London, they decide to find Maggie Fitzgerald, Esme’s (Avery Kristen Pohl) old nanny.

Tanisha Harper’s Jordan attempts in vain to persuade Portia (Brook Kerr) that her best move would be to let Curtis (Donnell Turner) know that he could be Trina’s biological father.

Family members of Portia and Curtis enter the chapel in anticipation of a white wedding. Officiant Laura Collins (Genie Francis) requests any and all objections as the ceremony begins.

GH Recaps: Tuesday, February 14

The marriage of Portia and Curtis goes off without a hitch…

Stella (Vernee Watson) and Jordan express their sorrow about Portia and Curtis starting their relationship without the truth being revealed.

Trina (Tabyana Ali) and Spencer (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) stealthily leave the reception after noticing Curtis’ sadness at Stella’s absence and make their way to the woman’s hotel room.

When Sam and Dante ask Heather Olt, a local bartender, about Maggie, they receive the runaround. The detectives grudgingly go, and Maggie (!) prepares to run away. Ryan (Jon Lindstrom) is given a shiv by Heather (Alley Mills), who also warns him that it’s almost time for their escape and promises to enlist Esme. Ryan makes the strategy more difficult by insisting on making a particular stop.

Sam discovers that Maggie and the bartender are identical. Opposite this, Dante returns to the pub, stymieing Maggie’s planned getaway… The best-laid plans of Heather and Ryan are seriously derailed when Ryan is forced to kill a guard in front of Esme.

Stella revealed to Trina that her mother was hiding something from her despite her reluctance to speak anything about it.

The celebration for Curtis and Portia went on seriously. The bride and groom notice Trina is not there. Trina arrives back just in time to see Portia throw her bouquet.

GH Recaps: Thursday, February 16

Trina and Portia go to a hotel suite, where Portia confesses an uncomfortable fact: she doesn’t know who the girl’s biological father is.

Ryan knocks Mac (John J. York) down cold after he suddenly crosses paths with Heather and Esme.

Maggie is persuaded by Sam and Dante to divulge her knowledge about Esme’s parents. The assertion that Esme is Ryan’s daughter astounds them.

Austin (Roger Howarth) arrives at Wyndemere with the intention of assisting her in moving Nikolas’s body, but Felicia’s (Kristina Wagner) unexpected entrance prevents the desecration. Felicia asks Ava for assistance in catching Ryan. The irony of ironies is that the monster himself soon traps the two women.

General Hospital Recaps: Friday, February 17

Ryan waves a rifle about, herds Ava and Felicia into the living room, and takes great pleasure in implying that he killed Mac. Later, Ryan tortures the two and makes Felicia accept a call from her husband. Just one of Ryan’s hostages will make it through the night, he tells the others. Threatening Austin is a man with a hook. The story of Heather, Esme, and Ryan’s escape spreads widely.

A lackey is tasked by Victor (Charles Shaughnessy) with finding Nikolas.

Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) and Anna (Finola Hughes) intensify their frightening of Eileen Ashby (Heather Mazur)…

Curtis and Taggert learn Portia’s secret via Trina.

Trina is reassured by Taggert that he will always be her father.

Curtis chastises Portia for her omissionary falsehood.
