Joss Tries to Reach “Nathan”

Elsewhere, “Nathan” checks in on Joss while she remains captive.

Carly Faces Cullum

General Hospital Recap: What Secret is Emma Hiding?

Back at home, Carly updates Valentin about everything that has been happening.

Not long after, Cullum unexpectedly shows up at her door.

Carly makes it very clear she has no interest in speaking with him, but Cullum insists the conversation could benefit Jason Morgan.

Nearby, Valentin quietly stays hidden with a gun, prepared to step in if necessary.

Cullum tells Carly he knows Jason did not shoot him. However, he also admits he cannot clear Jason just yet because he still believes Jason is protecting someone.

As the conversation continues, Cullum notices a framed photo of Jason and Danny.

Even so, Carly insists she has no idea who Jason might be protecting.

Once Cullum finally leaves, Valentin emerges with the gun still in hand. Carly is stunned, but Valentin calmly explains he would have killed Cullum if he had tried to hurt her.

Valentin also suggests they need to come up with a believable explanation for Josslyn’s disappearance because right now, it is safer if nobody knows where she really is.

Chase and Brook Lynn Move Forward

Isaiah and Curtis Explode

Elsewhere, Isaiah and Portia enjoy a romantic date night together.

Isaiah talks about Derek’s upcoming surgery, and Portia expresses confidence that he is about to change the young man’s life forever.

Things briefly turn tender when Portia allows Isaiah to feel the baby kick.

That is exactly when Curtis walks in.

Instantly furious, Curtis demands that Isaiah take his hands off “his child.”

The confrontation escalates quickly as Curtis accuses Isaiah of refusing to cooperate with the ADA despite claiming he had nothing to do with the accident.

Isaiah insists he made mistakes in the past, but says he was not the person responsible for leaving Jordan and Curtis for dead.

As tensions continue rising, Portia decides to leave with Isaiah, but before they can walk away, the two men exchange even more heated words.

Then Isaiah crosses a line.

He taunts Curtis by claiming he will be a better father to the baby than Curtis could ever be.

That is all it takes.

Curtis punches Isaiah.

More Trouble in Port Charles

Meanwhile, Justine stops by to see Jordan and even brings a yoga mat in hopes of convincing her to return to class.

Dante claims the evidence was accidentally misfiled, but Cullum clearly does not buy it.

In fact, he suspects Justine may have tipped Dante off ahead of time.

Dante insists the evidence still exists somewhere in the warehouse, but admits things are currently a complete mess there.

According to a new General Hospital preview video, Emma’s emotions boil over.

Emma is Emotional on General Hospital

The latest General Hospital preview video is here! The scene kicks off on a bright note as Felicia stops by to check in on Emma. Emma is incredibly grateful to have her there, but Felicia insists she wouldn’t have missed it for the world.

After all, this is a milestone event—Emma is preparing her very first home-cooked dinner for her boyfriend! Emma explains that she wanted to do something special to thank him for their incredible trip to New York.

Felicia completely validates the idea. She tells Emma that it is the perfect gesture because it’s personal, thoughtful, and coming straight from her own two hands.

Emma jokingly admits that “her own two hands” might be a bit of an exaggeration. She reminds Felicia that she had originally asked her for her famous almond cake recipe because she absolutely loves it.

However, when she asked for the recipe, Emma fully expected a piece of paper with instructions—not for Felicia to show up with the entire cake already baked and put together!

Felicia brushes off the thanks. She tells Emma that baking the cake was her way of thanking Emma just for being so happy lately.

A Sudden Accident Triggers a Breakdown

Hoping to keep the lovely visit going, Emma asks Felicia if she can fix her some tea, and Felicia happily accepts. Emma steps over to the kitchen to get things ready. As she reaches for a cup, she casually asks Felicia how her Uncle Mac is doing.

But before Emma can even finish the sentence, her hands betray her. The teacup slips from her fingers, crashing onto the floor and shattering into pieces.

The accident instantly shatters Emma’s composure as well. She completely breaks down. She gets incredibly emotional and screams, “No!” as the tears start to flow.

Felicia immediately jumps into action. She rushes over to soothe her and offers to help clean up the broken ceramic. A distraught Emma can’t seem to shake the panic, crying out that she can’t believe she just did that.

Felicia tries her best to de-escalate the situation and calm Emma down. She gently tells her not to worry about it. She reasons that it’s just a mug—Anna has plenty of other cups in the house, and if worst comes to worst, the two of them can simply head out and buy a replacement.

But Emma drops a heartbreaking truth that explains her intense reaction: they can’t replace it. Through her tears, Emma reveals that she personally made that specific mug for her grandma Anna when she was only 10 years old, and it has been Anna’s absolute favorite ever since.
