Britt Showed Up At The Hospital
Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) was not happy to see Britt at the hospital, especially when Britt mentioned how she had given birth to “Ben.”
Britt needed some prescriptions, so Liz put her on the walk-in list, but Dr. Westbourne tried to assert her authority since her photo was on the prestigious memorial wall. Liz firmly told Britt to wait her turn like everyone else.
Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) came to the hub to get his next case and was surprised that he had to treat Britt. She was also not excited about being Dr. Jones’s patient, but she agreed to an examination so she could get the medications to manage her Huntington’s disease.

Britt Check Up & Plea For Work
Britt shared that she had been taking an experimental drug, and Lucas was impressed that she showed no symptoms of the illness. As he left the exam room, Lucas mentioned that the prescriptions would be quite expensive, and Britt became concerned about her financial situation.
Returning to the hub, Britt inquired with Liz about seeing Dr. Terry Randolph (Cassandra James) or Dr. Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr). She then met the co-chiefs of staff, who were both shocked to find her alive and well in Portia’s office.
“It feels amazing to be back at G.H.! I understand how busy you both are, so I’ll spare you the trouble of asking,” Britt said cheerfully. “Absolutely, I’ll return to work.”

Portia Pushed For Britt’s Employment Reconsideration
Terry observed that Britt’s return was a case of medical fraud because she had been declared dead by someone at the hospital. The doctors sought clarification, but Britt was unable to reveal much about her recent confidential project.
Terry recommended that Britt focus on getting her license back and apply for a job at the nearby Mercy Hospital, but Britt preferred to work at G.H.
While Terry struggled to overlook Britt’s record falsification, Portia showed more understanding of the tough situation Britt might have been in and proposed that they could possibly find a role for her.
After discussing with the hospital board, Terry and Portia offered Britt a position as intake supervisor in the ER with a one-year probation period- Britt accepted the offer.
Tracy Didn’t Want To Believe Monica Was Gone
Tracy couldn’t believe it at first when Jason told her that Monica had died; they both started to cry as he, heartbroken, shared how he found her unresponsive. After Jason called 911, Tracy unexpectedly hugged her nephew as they both wept.
While waiting for the paramedics, Tracy was thankful that it was just her and Jason at the mansion, with Jason agreeing that Monica would have disliked a fuss being made over her.
“Given the influence she’s had on this family and the whole community, that’s a fight she’s going to lose,” Tracy laughed. While Tracy spoke with the sheriff, Jason went into the living room and broke down while holding a picture of his mother.
Tracy & Jason Remembered Monica
General Hospital recaps confirm that after the sheriff departed, Tracy and Jason stood in the foyer, gazing up at the magnificent staircase; “I’ve never experienced this place without her here,” Jason acknowledged.
“Naturally, you haven’t. It’s Monica’s home,” Tracy replied through her tears, softly cradling his face with her hand. Then, Tracy complained that giving Monica the house was the most foolish decision her brother Alan Quartermaine (Stuart Damon) had ever made, and Monica always used it against her.
Tracy flashed back to a disagreement they had one Christmas regarding the items in “Monica’s house.” Then Tracy informed Jason that although she and his mother seldom saw eye to eye, she held a great deal of respect for Monica.
Jason Remembered The Rough Patch He And Monica Went Through
Jason remembered the difficult time he and Monica experienced following his accident, and it took him a while to understand that Monica’s love for him was unwavering.
Reflecting on a heated discussion he once had with her, Jason confessed through tears, “I wish I had memories of growing up with Monica as my mother. He then expressed his deep regrets, saying, “
I should have asked her when I had the opportunity.” Tracy volunteered to help him fill in the gaps, as she and Monica frequently discussed Jason during their evening tea gatherings.
Tracy proceeded to share some memories she had of Monica and him when he was a baby.
Tracy Talked About Alan’s Affair With Susan Moore
Monica was deeply hurt by Alan’s affair with Jason and Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) birth mother, Susan Moore (Gail Ramsey). Initially, she refused to let baby Jason into her home due to the situation. ‘
However, one night, when Jason was just an infant and fell ill, Monica was called to care for him. “She entered that gatehouse knowing you were the child her husband had with another woman,” a tearful Tracy recounted;
“But when she left, she said — and I quote — ‘You were my son.” “Her love for you was immense,” Tracy comforted Jason, gently wiping a tear from his eye; “I know she loved you, too,” he replied, and they embraced, sharing their sorrow.
Lulu, Rocco & Charlotte Meet Up About Outback
After distributing more missing flyers about Outback throughout the town, Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) met her mother at Bobbie’s.
Lulu finally revealed that Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), via Jack Brennan (Chris L. McKenna), had asked for a visit. But Charlotte was reluctant to see her father in a maximum security prison.
Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) showed up at the restaurant, having had no success in locating their dog and still feeling guilty for Outback’s disappearance.
Lulu reminded her children that the dog was resilient, having been a stray not long ago, and expressed her pride in them for all their efforts to find the pup.

Molly Discovers Cody’s Secret
When Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) arrived at the Quartermaine stable to see Cody, she instantly fell in love with the stray dog he had found.
Cody mentioned that he hadn’t informed the kids at the main house about the dog yet, as he wasn’t really allowed to have pets. He didn’t want the Quartermaines to make him take the dog to a shelter; Molly promised to keep his secret about the dog and then apologized for sharing his private matters.
Specifically, his arrangement with Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) to charm Ava Jerome (Maura West) — with Liz; Cody turned away to hide his grin, making Molly feel bad.
He thought she thought he was just a “money-grabbing himbo” before forgiving her for gossiping about him, and encouraged Cody to tell the Qs about the dog he had rescued.
Gio Arrives At Sonny’s – Asks For A Big Favor
At Sonny’s house, Donna Corinthos (Scarlett Spears) playfully teased Gio about being her “favorite nephew” and questioned why he looked so down.
After receiving a hug from his “favorite aunt” that lifted his spirits a bit, Gio requested Sonny to lend him $10,000 as reward money for Outback.
Sonny consented, without any conditions, but suggested that Gio think about joining the family cookout with Kristina, Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson), and Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna).
The atmosphere became tense between father and son when Dante and Kristina showed up, yet Gio decided to stay for a little while.
Dante & Gio Had A Small Connection
As Sonny, Donna, and Gio stepped outside to ignite the grill, Kristina encouraged Dante to ease up and take a small step toward Gio by discovering some shared interests to discuss.
“You can address your concerns later,” she suggested. Later on, while the group relaxed on the patio, the discussion shifted to the missing Outback.
Dante and Gio exchanged a heartfelt moment when Dante remarked that Rocco was grateful for all that Gio was doing to locate the dog. It was a small point of connection, but it was a start.
