General Hospital Spoilers: Ava’s Blackmail Empire Crumbles As Alexis And Lucky Close In

General Hospital spoilers reveal Port Charles is a pressure cooker, and Ava Jerome’s (Maura West) blackmail scheme is about to implode, threatening to strip her of everything she has clawed to maintain.

Ava has been taking Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) for a ride by holding the truth about Kristina Corinthos Davis (Kate Mansi) tampering with Ric Lansing’s (Rick Hearst) brakes over her head.

Alexis will do anything to keep her daughter safe, but with Damian Spinelli’s (Bradford Anderson) cyber expertise and Lucky Spencer’s (Jonathan Jackson) relentless pursuit, she may be hot on Ava’s trail after all. As Ava’s money train derails, will she lose her art gallery and face prison, or can she outmaneuver her enemies to stay afloat?

Spinelli’s Hacking Turns the Tide

Alexis is fighting tooth and nail to dismantle Ava’s blackmail, and Spinelli’s top-tier hacking skills could end up being her secret weapon. His latest dive into Ava’s digital trail — possibly bank records or encrypted messages — could uncover damning evidence of her extortion.

Ava’s attempt to stay one step ahead, moving Ric’s tampered car and leaving a taunting note for Alexis, is only going to fuel her resolve. Spinelli’s breakthroughs could expose Ava’s scheme and take Ric down with her in one fell swoop.

If Spinelli cracks the case wide open, Ava’s financial lifeline could dry up fast. Will his tech prowess be her undoing, or can she slip through the net?

Lucky’s Search Tightens the Noose

Lucky’s recent discovery of Ava and Ric’s blackmail plot has made him a wildcard in this drama. Driven by loyalty to Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst), a crash victim but also the love of his life, and given his disdain for Ava’s manipulations, he’s hell-bent on bringing her down.

Whether he’s feeding intel to Alexis or confronting Ava directly, Lucky’s involvement is primed to ramp up the pressure. His actions might spark an untimely unraveling, potentially costing Ava her art gallery and plunging her back into financial ruin.

If Lucky digs too deep, he could even uncover evidence that puts Ava at risk of prison — though Alexis will likely shield Kristina at all costs. Can Lucky’s tenacity topple Ava, or will she turn the tables on him?

Ava’s Empire is on the Verge of Collapse

As Ava’s blackmail plan crumbles, her glamorous life will be left hanging by a thread. Losing the blackmail money could force her to sell her beloved gallery, a symbol of her power, and leave her scraping by — a fate she’s fought to avoid ever since those Cassadine funds were snatched back out of her bank account.

With Alexis, Spinelli, and Lucky circling, Ava’s desperation might lead to a bold counter-move, like framing Ric or striking a deal with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
