Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard) met with Detective Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) at the Metro Court rooftop restaurant to continue legal counsel. The Miller & Davis attorney was poised to draw up a legal separation now that her client was ready. They discussed Chase’s next steps.
WSB Agent William Baines (Alimi Ballard) received a visit from Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). Instead of getting an update on the young agent’s current assignment, Baines learned that Jacks wanted to go after Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). He advised her to stick to her assignment and not her personal vendetta.
Meanwhile, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) welcomed Giovanni Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) into her apartment. Palmieri told the songstress that although he had spoken with Sonny Corinthos, he still didn’t believe in his grandfather’s innocence regarding the prison attack that put Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) in the hospital.
Trina Robinson had no faith in the former mob boss to look after her father. Nevertheless, the Port Charles University graduate told her friend she wouldn’t begrudge him continuing his relationship with his grandfather.

Dr. Blake Nichols (Kearran Giovanni) met with her client, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), at General Hospital for a therapy session. Dr. Nichols helped the former police commissioner work through her feelings on a multitude of topics, including how she would move past her trauma from the WSB organization and the late Cesar Faison (Anders Hove).

Curtis Ashford was pleased when Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) visited him at General Hospital. After he updated her on his progress, the former Aurora Media CEO learned his girlfriend had been invited to receive treatment at the exclusive Baden-Baden burn clinic.
Jordan Ashford remained unsure about leaving her boyfriend during such a trying time, but Curtis Ashford didn’t want her to waste the opportunity. The Savoy owner convinced his lover that going abroad for facial reconstruction was the right move for both of them. The former deputy mayor then visited Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) to let him know that she was ready to leave for treatment in Germany.
At the Bad Jen Cafe, Mitchell prepared to go over the legal separation papers she’d drawn up for Chase. However, the meeting was cut short when an article about Chase’s ex-wife and good friend, Congresswoman Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen), was released.
Later, Mitchell visited Curtis Ashford in the hospital once again and explained why she thought an appeal was possible, starting with the judge’s errors in instructing the jury. The former private investigator wanted to pass the information on to his current lawyer, but Mitchell positioned herself as more competent. Curtis Ashford ultimately agreed to hire her.

When Mitchell dropped the bomb that she’s Jordan Ashford’s sister, Curtis Ashford couldn’t believe it. The Miller & Davis attorney explained that they’re half-siblings who had tough childhoods and, as a result, weren’t close.
After revealing that her big sister knew she was in town, Mitchell acted surprised that Jordan Ashford would keep secrets from her boyfriend, on top of leaving him injured for scar surgery abroad.
Curtis Ashford brushed off Mitchell’s attempts to bait him and asked what her angle was. She professed her determination to prove herself professionally.
At General Hospital, Dr. Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) admired a photo of her son, Desmond Robinson-Ashford. Stella Henry (Vernée Watson-Johnson) welcomed Dr. Robinson back to work with open arms.
The former hospital chief of staff was so happy to be a working mom again but worried that Henry and Marshall Ashford (Robert Gossett) would rearrange their lives to care for baby Desmond. Henry insisted that Desmond being around family was best for him.
Meanwhile, Dr. Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson) thanked Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) for backing him up before they entered Jenz Sidwell’s (Carlo Rota) hospital room. When Sidwell expressed reservations regarding his history with Dr. Gannon, the transplant doctor said he would still provide the proper duty of care.
Dr. Gannon had an affectionate reunion with his girlfriend, Dr. Robinson, and they talked about missing baby Desmond with Henry. Once the General Hospital chief administrator left, Dr. Robinson marveled at the love in her life.
Aware of the awkward feelings his presence could cause for Henry and Marshall Ashford, Dr. Gannon suggested limiting his time with Portia Robinson and Des to weekends. Dr. Robinson was touched, but she insisted her former in-laws would need to accept the man in her life.
Later on, Henry checked on her nephew and found Mitchell in his room. After the two women introduced themselves to each other, Henry ushered the attorney out upon learning her connection to Jordan Ashford.
The hospital chief administrator affirmed that if Mitchell was a sibling no one had ever heard of, she couldn’t be up to anything good. Mitchell defended herself and walked away certain that she’d get an apology once she successfully appealed Curtis Ashford’s case.
Henry confided her lack of trust regarding Mitchell to her nephew. Though the former Aurora Media CEO felt the same, he believed he had nothing to lose by hiring Mitchell.
Viewers can watch “General Hospital” Monday through Friday, airing on ABC at 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. EST.
