General Hospital Recap, June 13, 2025: Maxie attempted to broker a truce, Dante is still angry, Sonny has a plan for Natalia 

Here’s what happened in Port Charles today on the General Hospital recap for Friday, June 13, 2025.

What happened on General Hospital

Due to two news reports, a small portion of the General Hospital was not seen. The full episode will air tonight on ABC.com.

Maxie texted Lulu to meet at her house. When Lulu asked if she was still speaking to her, Maxie said, “How can I be mad at you? I’ve been you, meddling in other people’s lives until it all blows up in your face. That was my jam.”

Indicating she didn’t believe she really did anything wrong, Lulu said she had the best of intentions and then focused on the good that could come out of the situation. Maxie reminded her that her actions affected a lot of lives.

She told Lulu what she did destroyed Gio’s memory of who he thought was his mother, and went against a dying woman's wishes. Lulu defended herself by saying she was not the one who lied. Maxie accused Lulu of thinking she had the right to do it because it was Dante’s son. Lulu said she’s not the one who had 22 years to tell Dante she had his baby and chose not to.

Lulu felt that if Dante wanted to be mad at someone, it should be Brook Lynn and not her, but Maxie didn’t agree. Maxie focused on Brook Lynn’s impossible choice to give Gio up for adoption, but Lulu didn’t see that as the problem. Lulu understood the hard decision and felt no one, including herself, was judging Brook Lynn for deciding to give up Gio for adoption. Maxie pointed out that Gio saw it differently.

Lulu argued it was Brook Lynn’s decision to not tell Dante the truth that she took issue with, but Maxie pointed out that it was not her truth to tell. Maxie asked, “But why you?” to which Lulu countered, “Because I know what it’s like to be kept in the dark when it comes to my child.”

Lulu felt Dante deserved to know about Gio, just like she deserved to know about her children, who were both kept from her. She assured Maxie she was not trying to make her feel guilty about what happened with Georgie when she was a baby. Lulu considered that a mistake. But what Britt and Valentin did with Rocco and Charlotte was actual crimes. Maxie told her in order for everyone to move on, she needed to take accountability for what she did.

Brook Lynn arrived, surprised to see Lulu. She accused Lulu of using Maxie to trick her into coming over there so she could ambush her and get Maxie to run interference. As the two started arguing, Maxie interjected and told both of them they needed to shut up.

Maxie said she wanted them in the same room because they needed to see each other face-to-face with no Dante, no Chase, and no Quartermaines, and just have it out. The two of them did not think it was a good idea, but Maxie pointed out that what they were doing was affecting more than just both of them. It was affecting the people they love…Tracy, Dante, Gio, Rocco.

“I’m not asking you to do this for me, even though I am very tired of this. I’m not asking you to do this for yourselves. I would love it if you could do this for the people you both love”, Maxie argued, trying to get them to see reason.

A truce was almost brokered. Lulu admitted to not considering the long-term effects on Gio and Rocco. Maxie added that if Gio saw the two of them put their anger aside, then maybe he would also. They could show him that anything was possible. Brook Lynn said, for Gio and Rocco's sake, she was willing to accept Lulu’s apology. And that’s where the truce fell apart.

Lulu emphatically believed she did not owe an apology to her, but to Gia for the pain she caused him and felt terrible about. To Brook Lynn, she said, “I’m not sorry for what I did to you, and I never will be.”

Earlier, at the Q mansion, Brook Lynn was packing to leave for Maxie’s when Tracy walked in. The topic of revenge was brought up. Tracy said she was happy to see Brook Lynn focus on work instead of revenge and thought it would be a good way to rechannel her hurt and rage. Getting to eviscerate “Erica Kane on the phone is a very worthwhile outlet”, Tracy noted.

Tracy told Brook Lynn she was glad to see her letting go of the ill-conceived vendetta against Lulu, but Brook Lynn quickly let her know she hadn’t. She angrily pointed out that Tracy would not be so willing to let everything go if this were anyone else but Lulu and made it clear that she had no intentions of letting it go.

Tracy tried to get her to focus on what was important and let her know that she, Maxie, and everyone just wanted her to heal.

Later, Alexis came over to meet with Tracy, asking what legal entanglement she had gotten herself into this time. Tracy complained that Drew was a thorn in her side and would be a problem for Alexis, too, because of Scout.

Tracy reminded Alexis, as Scout’s grandmother, she had legal standing in the state of New York and wanted her to sue Drew for custody of Scout. Tracy felt Drew “doesn’t know about love, he just knows how to mimic it.” Alexis told her Sam believed in him and his love for Scout, so she had no intentions of suing for custody.

However, she continued to be concerned that, if pushed, he would take Scout and move to D.C. and warned Tracy to find another way to get back at Drew because she was not going to let her use her granddaughter to do it.

Tracy shifted to ask her about getting out of the ridiculous Ketamine drugging charges. Alexis said even if Tracy didn’t do it, she was certainly capable of it and her fate was in Drew’s hands right now. Alexis gleefully told Tracy she should beg, plead, and grovel to get Drew to drop the charges.

Anna and Molly met in Anna’s PCPD office. Reviewing current cases, Molly told her she had to recuse herself from Natalia Ramirez’s case because of her complicated relationship with her family. Anna noted that ADA (currently acting DA) Turner took the case, which raised her suspicions.

Meanwhile, Chase was reviewing Natalia’s file as Dante entered the station. Chase acknowledged they hadn’t spoken and asked how Dante was. Dante said everything would be fine if they kept it to just work, but Chase questioned if that was possible. Keeping a bitter tone while speaking to each other, the two began to discuss Dante not being assigned to Natalia’s case.

After Molly left, Dante went to see Anna. Anna told Dante he had every right to feel the way he did about the Gio situation, but he didn’t have the right to express it at work. Upset, Dante shared that Chase had known for a while that Brook Lynn had his baby and didn’t say anything.

“I gotta put my life in this guy’s hands every day, right? How do I trust him now?” he asked.

Anna said that she could see why they might have kept this from him, and she had empathy for Brook Lynn because she hadn’t told Robert about Robin.

She agreed Dante had the right to feel angry and betrayed, but advised that no decision is ever clear-cut. In her case, she surmised that better decisions could have been made, but they weren’t, so she and Robert had to keep their “eyes front” to focus on the present & future and not the past. Regardless, she insisted he needed to keep things professional with his partner.

Still bitter, Dante went back out to the station. Chase, ignoring the power of a good ‘ol apology, told Dante that he was letting his personal feelings impact his work, and he shouldn’t do that. “Or what?” Dante replied. “Or nothing”, said Chase, who went on to tell Dante to just calm down.

Chase’s words had the opposite effect and triggered Dante even further. Dante angrily asked how Chase could not say anything to him. Chase argued that he was protecting his wife, and it wasn’t his secret to tell. As the argument began to escalate, Anna walked in to intervene.

At the law office of Miller & Dave, Marco thanked Alexis for agreeing to help with his mother’s DUI case. Natalia showed up, surprised that Marco cared. She admonished him for not being there for her at the PCPD when she needed him. He told her he didn’t get the message until the morning and set up the meeting as soon as he heard it. Alexis reassured her that Marco cared and wanted to help.

Natalia said she already handled it and got a deal from the DA. Alexis cautioned that representing herself and navigating a deal without consulting was precarious. Natalia didn’t want Marco to let his father know he was helping her.

They sat so Natalia could explain what happened and the offer made by the DA. She shared that Turner wants her to turn over every single thing she has about Sonny. At that point, Alexis had to recuse herself since Sonny is Kristina’s father and a close friend. She left to meet with Tracy. After their meeting, Natalia went to update Sonny.

Later, looking for her mom at the office, Molly met Marco for the first time. He said he wanted to discuss his mom’s case, but Molly let him know that it's not her case, so she is not able to discuss anything.

He asked for advice on how to handle Turner. Molly told him she was fair, but ambitious, and was determined to make a name for herself. She cautioned that if Turner wanted something, she'd stop at nothing to make it happen.

Desperate to pursue an appeal, Drew met with Martin at the hospital. Martin explained that the judge’s ruling may be harsh, but it was straightforward. In the eyes of the court, Willow demonstrated a “pattern of disregard for the father’s rights.”

Drew recognized that everyone thought he was the problem, even though he did not agree whatsoever. He wondered if he left Willow and went to D.C. with Scout, would Michael give Willow access to her children. Even though he claimed to love Willow and she loved him, he wondered if Willow would be better off without him.

After Martin left, Jason met Drew at the hospital. Drew called him there to ask for his help with Michael. He wanted Jason to take a proposal to Michael for him.

Before Jason met Drew, he was at Sonny’s “restaurant”, Pozzulo’s. They discussed how Willow was not the same as she was in the beginning, but Drew was the main problem. Next, Sonny filled Jason in on his meeting with Natalia, whom he said was starting to view as a real problem for him.

After Jason left, Natalia met with Sonny. She told him about meeting with Marco and let him know she didn’t say anything about tipping him off. Sonny told her he found a way out for both of them.

He said he would send her to Belize to start over with a new life and new identity.

Natalia didn’t want to give up being able to see her kids, even if their relationships were strained, but Sonny made it seem like she didn’t really have much of a choice.

She realized by tipping him off, she sacrificed her future. Sonny told her that she may have sacrificed a future in Port Charles, but she guaranteed a life somewhere else. He gave his word to ensure she stayed protected and had a great life.
