What to expect on General Hospital

The last person Carly (Laura Wright) expected to see when she realized someone had broken into her home was Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart). The last she heard, he was safely tucked away in a maximum security prison. However, he did tell her that he would be in touch and now he is.

Carly tells Valentin that he needs to leave immediately, but he isn't about to go anywhere. He needs Carly's help, so Carly bites the bullet and takes a huge risk. With Lucas (Van Hansis) gone and Donna (Scarlett Spears) at Sonny's (Maurice Benard) so frequently, will she now be able to harbor a fugitive?

Panic sets in

As soon as Jack (Chris McKenna) learns that Valentin has escaped, he briefs Josslyn (Eden McCoy) on this latest news. She quickly freaks out because she thinks that Valentin is a threat to her mother. After all, he poisoned her champagne last winter, but he was really aiming for Jack, so does it really count?

When Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) get the news, they are sure that Valentin will try to find Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) immediately. Lulu panics and begs Charlotte to come home and not leave the house until she is told it's safe. Little do they know that Valentin decided to pop by Carly's house before looking for his daughter.

Meanwhile, Dante and Nathan (Ryan Paevey) put on their police hats and begin a manhunt. They would never imagine that Valentin is with Carly of all people.

Oblivious Lucas

Lucas has his blinders on at Wyndemere as Marco (Adrian Anchondo) treats him to an evening of romance. Lucas is now on the outs with his sister because of this man, but he seems to be in love. Too bad he is in love with an illusion, as Marco is well aware of his father's illegal doings and helps him.

Marco tries to go to bat for Carly because he doesn't want Lucas to not speak to his own sister, all because of him, but Lucas refuses to budge. Too bad he doesn't know what's been going on downstairs in the living room.
