General Hospital Recap, May 21: Lulu tells Lois she knows all about Gio

Here is your General Hospital recap for Wednesday, May 21, 2025, when Lulu confronted Lois about Brook Lynn and Dante's son.

What happened on General Hospital

Backstage, Nurse Amy came to the rescue when she located Lucy's first gown of the night. Lucy took a deep breath and gave everyone a pep talk before the talent portion of the night began.

When Willow and Drew walked into the ballroom, Willow could tell all eyes were on her. People stared, then looked away uncomfortably. Willow tried to keep a smile on her face before telling Drew she needed to go change for her performance with the other nurses.

Drew took his seat just as Lucy took to the stage and offered a little history of the ball. She started the event back in 1994 to "raise awareness and funds in the fight against HIV and AIDS...I thought it would be a one-time event." She explained how much it has grown over the years. "And this is what we do. We all get together as a community, and we do it for the greater good," Lucy said.

Lucy finally introduced the opening act —the General Hospital and nurses, who sang and danced to their own version of Celebration by Kool and the Gang. When the number was over, Brook Lynn and Chase ordered drinks and discussed the situation with Granny Tracy.

"I know how much my grandmother hates Drew, but she would never do anything that horrible," Brook Lynn said. Dante wasn't so sure. "Her Drew anger has reached epic proportions," Dante said. "Who could blame her? The guy's trash with abs," Cody commented.

Josslyn caught up with Willow in the ladies' room and started in immediately. "I didn't think you could sink any lower, but somehow, you did. You being here. Fawning all over Drew. It takes a lot of nerve," she said. "Well, I am here and I'm not leaving," Willow responded.

Josslyn warned Willow that she'd never take Michael's kids from him. "What happens with my children is none of your business. I am their mother. Wiley and Amelia belong with me," Willow calmly insisted. Josslyn asked about Michael, so Willow told her that Michael refused to see her in Germany. "It made me realize I just sit there waiting for him to come home. At the moment, nothing is more important to me than moving on with my life and being with Drew," Willow added.

Just then, creepy Drew began banging on the ladies' room door. "Oh wow, there's your hero now. Do you think he's late to come to your rescue because he and his white horse were out scoring blow?" Joss asked. Drew barged in, but Josslyn wasn't done. "You're in the ladies' room, Drew. Are you looking for another girlfriend or maybe another hooker?"

Portia and Curtis spent some time alone in the Metro Court Gardens, where Curtis gave Portia a shock. He knew Drew was blackmailing her. Portia admitted it was true and explained how Brad was blackmailing her about Heather's test results, but then Drew got involved, and things grew out of control. "That's when it escalated and it became something much bigger," she said.

Curtis grew furious, pointing out that he had gotten past 20 years of secrets and lies just for Portia to do this. "I didn't tell you cause I was afraid of exactly what's happening right now," Portia pointed out. Curtis worried about what this could do to their family. "This could destroy everything," he said, not even knowing about he ketamine part of the tale.

Portia told Curtis that Drew wanted her to get Curtis to give him positive press. So, Curtis grew even more furious that Portia manipulated him and ruined their marriage.

Back in the ballroom, Sonny and ADA Turner made some small talk. It was her first time at the Nurses' Ball. "It might be the last one that we're together at. You might have a hard time doing business in Port Charles if Measure C passes. Perhaps you'll relocate to a more welcoming climate," she said. "Port Charles is my home. Nobody's throwing me out of her," Sonny assured.

Lucy soon introduced the next performer. "He combines classical sophistication with fresh street energy," Lucy said before Gio took to the stage. He had the audience bopping along to his violin performance that was as fresh as Lucy promised. Lois looked on in awe as Lulu looked at Lois suspiciously.

After the performance, Lois praised Gio backstage. Lulu made sure to listen in as Gio told Lois how much he missed performing back home in Bensonhurst. "I feel so close to my mom when I'm on stage. I felt like she was up there with me," he said. Lulu made her presence known and asked to talk to Lois alone, but Lucy dragged Lois away to deal with a crisis.

Carly and Olivia introduced the next number as Anna, Felicia, and Lucy danced onto the stage in cowgirl attire. Cowboy Spinelli made an appearance on lead vocals for a rousing rendition of "These Boots Are Made for Walking."

After the number, Lois was once again right there to offer praise backstage. Lulu found her again, but this time she dragged Lois into a dressing room and told her that she knew Gio was Brook Lynn and Dante's son.

In Alexis' living room, Alexis told Kristina that she knew she had tried to kill Ava. Kristina denied the allegations. "Whatever you think you know, you're wrong," she claimed defensively. "I can explain. Ava provoked me, and I wasn't thinking clearly. And I tried—"

Alexis interrupted her daughter before she could say another word. "You stop. Doesn't matter why you did it. You did it, and now it can't be undone. SO, now we just have to cover it up," she told a confused Kristina. "I did cover it up. Only Lucky knows. Did he tell you?"

Kristina insisted that she didn't mean to hurt Ric and Elizabeth. "I meant to cut Ava's brake lines," she said with her usual lack of self-awareness and knowing right from wrong. That caused Alexis to snap. "Who the hell cares whose brake lines you planned to cut. You tampered with a car with the intention of hurting somebody, and you did," she shouted at her delusional daughter.

Kristina claimed she felt bad and tried to stop it, but it was too late. She was also surprised that Ric and Ava had evidence against her. "No, no, no, this can't be happening," a befuddled Kristina lamented.

"It gets worse. They have the car. They hid the car, and Ric and Ava are the only people who know where it is. If the police find that car, they will see that the brake lines were cut, and you will be charged with attempted murder," Alexis informed Kristina.

Kristina finally had a moment of remorse when she learned that Alexis was stealing from a 2-year-old to pay off Ric and Ava. "Ace is suffering now because of me," she lamented. "Ace will be fine. The real issue is that I am now involved in an embezzlement scheme with the two of them," Alexis shouted.

Kristina decided they needed Sonny to take care of things because it's not like he just had heart surgery or anything. Alexis warned Kristina not to involve her father. "Kristina, you do what I say, cause this isn't just about you. I am doing this for your sister, too," Alexis said. She explained to a baffled Kristina how Molly's knowing the truth could ruin both her personal and professional lives.
