Welcome to the General Hospital Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:

What happened on General Hospital

She didn't, did she? Yes, she did. Willow popped out of nowhere on Thursday toward the end of the episode and had us screaming with just two short scenes. The dingba (tentatively) fell into Drew's arms and allowed that lowdown, dirty, lying, smarmy politician to embrace her. And all we wanted to do was reach through the screen and smack her silly. What is even wrong with this girl that she believes every word this absolutely awful man says to her? We shouldn't be surprised that Willow is already caving to Drew and allowing him to touch her after learning he emotionally abused her son, but we are. It's exasperating to watch and more proof that this girl needs some serious inpatient therapy. If Michael can prove she was the one stalking Daisy, then maybe she will get that much-needed stint at Ferncliff after all. If not, send her to Shadybrook and call Kevin Collins back from DC or Andre Maddox back from a WSB mission (is that what he is doing now?) to give this girl the counseling she needs. Everything Drew does and says is worse than the last, yet Willow can't seem to resist it. What does that say about her? It's only a matter of time until she is back in his Dawn of Day house, wondering why nobody will let her see her children.
