Meanwhile, in Dubrovnik, Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) needs more from the boss.

 

Anna Encounters Obrecht

“Hello Scarecrow,” Obrecht greets Anna as she catches her off guard on the pier-they discuss how Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) brought her back to the town.

Liesl constantly thinks about Britt; she will never forget the trouble she caused Anna-Obrecht wanted to come back to reflect on Britt’s final moments before her death. She has been recalling her last brave actions. (Make sure to check out our weekly GH spoilers, here!)

Anna informs her that Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) claims he spotted Britt in Paris. Obrecht is aware and feels happy that someone else envisions seeing her-she wishes she had been a better mother and not so tough on her.

 

Anna And Liesl Continue Discussing Their Mothering Failures Of The Past

It took her an excessive amount of time to understand how to love her, and they both express their grievances about the losses incurred due to Cesar Faison (Anders Hove).

Liesl reminds Anna that she left Robin Scorpio-Drake (Kimberly McCullough) for the WSB- Anna acknowledges that she is not mistaken and feels remorse for her actions.

She wishes to believe she made a positive impact in the WSB, but her doubts grow stronger with each passing day.

 

Obrecht inquires what advice she would give to her younger self. Anna confesses that she would have advised them to choose a different career and prioritize her children above everything else.

Kristina And Cody Catch Up At The Hospital

At GH, Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) visits Cody Bell (Josh Kelly), who is keen to have his mole examined.

 

Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) stops by to inform him that the dermatologist is on the way; after his examination, he discovers that he has a freckle. He and Kristina discuss her intentions for Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos), and she proposes an additional ten thousand to help him complete his seduction of Ava Jerome (Maura West).

She encourages him to “bump into” Ava at her mother’s office and invite her out for a martini-before he leaves, he inquires if she knows why Molly is upset with him.

Kristina explains that Molly has been feeling down since losing TJ Ashford (Tajh Bellow) and reassures him that it’s nothing personal; however, to him, it felt very personal.

Joss Gets Her Mission Packet

In Jack Brennan’s (Chris L. McKenna) office, he gives Josslyn her fake passport and tells her what to do at the Five Poppies. Carly calls him, and they set up a date-he informs Joss that she now knows how to find her mom.

Joss heads to the Metro Court and tells her mom that she’s going to Australia to help a family friend who got hurt on her ranch.

Carly mentions that Joss’ father, Jasper Jacks (most recently Ingo Rademacher), could handle this in five minutes. Joss insists she’s doing this because the woman was a friend of her paternal grandmother; her mom suspects that there’s more to the story.

Josslyn Explains More

Joss confesses that she has been contemplating her cautions regarding Vaughn (Bryce Durfee) and feels the urge for some space. Just then, Jack appears, and Joss makes her exit.

 

Carly and Jack engage in a conversation about how Vaughn has set Joss against Emma Scorpio-Drake (Braedyn Bruner).

Just then, Anna reaches out to her on the phone and requests a meeting to share some information about Joss. Carly recommends that Anna meet her at that location and further clarifies to Brennan that Anna is heading there to talk about her daughter.

Chase And BrookLynn Discuss Adoption

Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn Quartermaine Chase (Amanda Setton) are also at the Metro Court-at their table, Chase tells BLQC that they need to start the adoption process again.

She isn’t ready to adopt yet-her focus should be on building a connection with Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza); Chase understands this, but it might take a long time.

She can’t fully commit to adopting right now-Brook Lynn needs to make some headway with Gio first so he doesn’t feel like she’s replacing him.

This frustrates Chase, but she’s firm in her decision-does this mean they will have to pause for years-she isn’t sure, it’s all about timing.

He questions if everything that has happened with Gio has altered her views on adoption-it hasn’t, Chase replies that he can wait and then steps away to make a work call.

Ric And Molly Meet For Lunch At The Metro Court

Ric Lansing (Ric Hearst) has dinner with Molly and confesses he has no clue what Ava is doing tonight; she inquires if he wants to talk about it-he declines.

They discuss her return to writing, and he expresses his enthusiasm for her. What sparked this; she isn’t sure why she stopped but got an idea while riding horses.

He wonders if her new story will be a western-she thinks of Cody and mentions it began as a romance, but she altered her plans. The conversation shifts back to Ava, and she tells him he can do better.

 

Elizabeth Shows Up And Molly Leaves, But Later Returns

Liz arrives, although she was meant to meet a friend who ended up not showing-Molly steps away to let them talk. Liz thanks Ric for stepping up for Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen), but she cautions him that she disregarded his counsel and paid a visit to Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) nonetheless.

He urges her to persuade Willow to consider his advice and display kindness and affection, as otherwise, she won’t leave a favorable impression on the judge. Then Molly comes back, and they invite Liz to join them for soufflé.

Ava Arrives At Alexis’ Office-With A Favor

In her office, Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is taken aback when Ava reveals her intention to do her a significant favor.

Although Ava has no plans to return any of the money she extorted, she does want to eliminate Ric from the equation.

The Jerome states that she has a clear perspective, but Ric’s hostility makes her uneasy-she proposes a final payment of 1.5 million, after which they can cut Ric out.

Alexis believes they should halt their actions immediately, as Laura Collins (Genie Francis) is already probing for answers.

Ava then produces a key that will provide her with all the evidence against Kristina; the lawyer remains doubtful but ultimately consents-just then, Cody arrives.

Emma Wants The Facilities Key Back From Gio

At the pool, Emma informs Gio that she wants the facilities key returned she stole from Vaughn. She feels it’s essential for her to break into Professor Henry Dalton’s (Daniel Goddard) office; he reminds her that she must be enrolled in Dalton’s class.

Additionally, if she were to get caught, it would count as two strikes against her, potentially leading to her being sent home or even locked up.

Gio points out that he has much less at stake-he encourages her to consider the risk of losing her family. Unlike him, she enjoys a strong relationship with them, then Gio confesses that he misses his family.

Emma Agrees To Let Gio Break In-Then He Runs Into Chase

He had deep feelings for Lois Cerullo (Rena Sofer) and even finds himself missing the Qs. He’s not prepared to make contact and is uncertain if he ever will be.

Emma consents to his plan to infiltrate the lab by himself. Joss appears, prompting him to leave-she informs Emma that she has quit her job with Dalton.

 

She advises her against accepting the position if it’s offered. She mentions that while there’s no evidence of animal testing, Dalton is untrustworthy and made advances towards her; as Gio departs, he encounters Chase.

In Croatia, Britt Needs More From Greta, While Anna’s Kidnapped On The Pier

At the Croatian resort, Britt expresses her dissatisfaction to Pascal (Marc Forget). She insists that he should reach out to their boss to request more details from Greta (Carolyne Maraghi), as the last set of data she provided was lacking.

Left alone, she browses through Rocco’s photos on MyFace, then her boss calls, and she voices her frustration about being stuck there constantly.

After hanging up, she takes out a needle. Meanwhile, back in Port Charles, Anna is just about to leave the pier when someone suddenly places a hood over her head and seizes her, causing her to kick and scream.
