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

While Nina and Portia's little stunt with Drew was definitely underhanded, it was undoubtedly deserved. However, it almost felt like GH was trying to make us believe he was a victim here. Okay, technically he was, but look at what he's done to warrant what Nina and Portia did to him. He is no angel and Willow needed something to wake her up to the man Drew really is. Should it really matter if that something was staged? And let's not start claiming that Drew has this altruistic love for Willow, considering how controlling he has been since she first left Michael, plus how creepy he was stalking her for months before she finally decided to be with him. With both Curtis and Alexis stressing how unlike Drew this was and how they never thought he'd do anything to hurt Willow, it sure seemed like General Hospital was trying to paint a perfect love story between the couple fans now call The Grusome Twosome. There is nothing lovely and loving about Drew and Willow. He is selfish and conniving, while she is just plain selfish and entirely stupid. Drew is a nasty person who just tricked her into thinking that her estranged husband didn't want to see her after she flew all the way to Germany to talk to him. He once again menacingly threatened Portia just yesterday, and he tried to have the mausoleum containing the remains of his grandparents, his father, and his son bulldozed with their bodies still inside. That is not a good person — and it's about time Willow learned this the hard way.
