GH RECAP WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11th
At Aurora, Curtis meets with Jordan about the planned esplanade in honor of the late congressman she and Drew have been working on. He has a better location for it and will make it happen after heās named CEO. Curtis tells Jordan about Drewās backstabbing and that heās teaming up with Michael, just not the way Michael thinks. He doesnāt even think Michael has Auroraās best interest in mind and only wants to hurt Drew. Jordan says sheāll slow down the esplanade project as best she can. He thanks her.
Portia arrives and asks if sheās interrupting. Jordan gets a text that Dex is out of surgery and decides to head to the hospital. Once alone, Portia asks what is going on. Curtis tells her that heās going to take Aurora away from Drew. Sheās so sorry that Drew betrayed him, but he could walk away as they donāt need this company. Curtis says it may be Drewās company, but he founded the Wellness Division, so he canāt walk away. She asks how Jordan fits in and if she is helping him with his plan.
Curtis explains he is, and he only got confirmation today that Drew is planning on not naming him CEO. He called her to let her know he will be working late a lot and heāll need her support. She says he has it. Curtis will need people he can trust by his side to pull this off. He is counting on her and Jordan. She asks about Michael. He says Michael will be useful, but for now, heās running the show.
Anna visits Dex, who is out of surgery, at the hospital. She says they are investigating what happened and need his account of what he recalls. He recounts what happened with the drunk football players, and that he was stabbed while pouring out their alcohol. Dex asks if he could have been targeted because heās a cop.
Joss bursts in, interrupting them, and Anna leaves them. Joss asks how he is and who did this to him. Just then, Dr. Gannon arrives to discuss his surgery. He tells Dex and Joss that he is going to be just fine. Gannon says the knife hit a rib, missed any arteries, and Dex should have a full recovery.
After Dr. Gannon leaves, Joss again asks Dex what happened. He tells her, and she wonders if Sonny could be behind this. Dex doesnāt believe this was Sonny, as he gave him his word that he wouldnāt retaliate against him. Joss thought she wouldnāt have to worry about him getting hurt after leaving Sonnyās organization. Dex promises Joss heās going to be okay and suggests that after finals, they head to a beach somewhere. Joss says sheās already mentally packing her bags.
Jordan arrives to see Dex, but Isaiah tells her that heās with his girlfriend. She assumes he signed the contract if heās working here, and he confirms it. She welcomes him to Port Charles. She decides to go to Rice Plaza and prove to the citizens their Christmas fair is safe. He offers to accompany her, and she accepts.
In the park, Martin leaves a message for Cyrus, asking him to call him as heās been hearing many unsettling things about him. Suddenly, someone grabs his shoulder.
Jason hauls Martin off to the warehouse. Martin asks what this is about. Jason says heāll ask the questions. Anna soon arrives, and Martin asks what is going on and why they are working together. Anna explains they want Valentin, and heās going to help them get him.
Martin insists he has no idea where Valentin is, and he hasnāt been in contact with him. He says if he knew where Valentin was, he would have told her as Charlotte is his grandniece. Anna tells Martin they will do whatever it takes to find Charlotte and tells Jason to jog his memory.
Martin tells them to wait and says they can take his phone, as it has all his contacts, including Valentin, along with his account numbers. Anna asks why he didnāt tell her that from the beginning. Martin tells her sheās working with a killer, heās been kidnapped, and sheās gone so far over the line. Anna doesnāt care if Martin doesnāt like her methods, as her priority is finding Charlotte and bringing her home. Martin asks what sheāll do to him if his phone does not help them.
In Ninaās office, she tells Maxie about her run-in with Lulu. Maxie says sheāll talk to her, but she is a mother desperate to find her daughter. Nina understands, but she is also not the enemy. She has sympathy for Lulu, given she went through a similar experience, but she has no idea where Valentin and Charlotte are.
As Maxie heads out, Drew shows up to speak to Nina. He informs her heās making Michael CEO of Aurora, and Curtis is out. Nina is furious as Curtis is her friend. Drew says Michael stepped up and did a good job running Aurora. Plus, heās doing this for Michael and Willow. He says this could even save Michael and Willowās marriage.
Nina asks if he thinks he can just buy Michael off? Drew says Michael has agreed to this, but Nina asks how Curtis is going to feel having worked his tail off for months. Drew says Curtis can still run Aurora Wellness. Also, this is where she comes in, as he needs her to soften the blow to Curtis. She canāt believe he wants her to stab Curtis in the back. He asks what is more important, Willowās happiness or her friendship with Curtis?
In Carlyās office, Lulu demands Jack call Valentin. He pulls out his phone and calls Valentin, but nobody picks up. Jack explains Valentin has a burner phone, and he canāt trace it. He explains Valentin contacted him, but he doesnāt know where Valentin is. Lulu says sheāll find her daughter if she has to burn the WSB to the ground and smashes Jackās phone. He snarks that he sees the family resemblance between them. He tells them good evening, departs, and Carly informs Lulu that was the wrong move. Lulu asks Carly if she really thinks Jack is being honest. Carly does.
Carly explains Jack has come through for her a lot lately, though he still works for the WSB, so she doesnāt fully trust him. Carly begs Lulu not to go after the WSB. Lulu shifts the conversation and compliments Carlyās new hairdo, and mentions how much has changed. Out of everything, including Luke and Spencerās deaths, Charlotte being gone is the one thing she canāt deal with. Carly tells Lulu that Jack can help them, but not if she goes after the WSB.
Lulu still thinks Nina is lying about Valentin and Charlotte, but Carly says she isnāt. She explains Nina and Valentin split long ago, and she married and divorced Sonny of all people since then. Carly also breaks the news about Bobbieās death and is sorry to give her another shock on top of all sheās been through these past few days. Lulu says Bobbie was such a rock. Carly says her mom would tell her to hold tight, that theyāll find Charlotte, and Spencers donāt give up on each other.
Maxie appears in the doorway and says, āThere you are. Were you ever going to call me?ā Lulu walks to her, and they embrace. Lulu says she was going to call her, and she saw her son and canāt believe how big James got. Maxie has so much to tell her. She apologizes for interrupting Lulu and Carly, but Carly says they can stay as long as they want and gives them space.
Maxie mentions Nina and assures Lulu that Nina would tell her if she knew where Charlotte was, but they will find her. Lulu says they have so much to catch up on.
They sit down, and Maxie tells her about Bailey Lu and Spinelli. Lulu is glad she dumped Peter for Spinelli. Maxie says itās a little more complicated, and sheāll tell her all about it later. Maxie says she finally got out of her own way and accepted she loves Spinelli. Lulu feels the same about Dante, but she knows about Sam. She owes Sam her life and never got to say thank you. Maxie tells her that Sam was proud to help her. Lulu feels blessed to have a special connection with Sam now, but doesnāt know how Dante will ever look at her again. Maxie says she is not to blame for what happened to Sam. Lulu says maybe not, but things were a mess when she went into the coma, and they are a mess now. Maxie tells her that Spinelli is helping to find Charlotte, and they will bring her home.
In Jackās office, he speaks with Collette about finding Valentin. He notes Valentin is now a liability to him and the WSB, and this group of outsiders could succeed in finding him where they canāt. Collette is concerned that he shouldnāt have let Valentin get away in the first place, and he should have let Valentin take the fall for Pikeman. He insists he didnāt let Valentin escape, and while he felt he owed him a debt, that debt is now paid. When Collette brings up Charlotte, Jack begins brainstorming how they could use Charlotte to locate Valentin. After all, how long can a teen go without using their phone? He thinks sheāll want to go online, especially with her mother awake.
Jack tasks Collette with finding Charlotte online. He says she is fluid in French and loves horses. Collette understands and notes that while Anna and Jason are professionals and can help them, what can Carly do for them? He says sheās useful, but Collette isnāt so sure. He thanks her for her advice, but this is a chance heās taking. Once Lulu has Charlotte back, Valentin will become impossible to track.
Back at the warehouse, Jason has Spinelli search through Martinās phone on Spinelliās computer. Carly appears with news, saying Jack found the bug, and he only knows how to contact Valentin through a burner phone. Jason thanks her but says she shouldnāt be here. Carly insists she wants to help them find Charlotte. She says she has connections with Jack. As they bicker, suddenly, Spinelli gets a hit. There was a withdrawal from one of Valentinās accounts in Zurich.
In the office, Martin tells Anna that hurting him wonāt help her find Charlotte or change the fact that she shot her. Anna knows, and she has to live with that for the rest of her life. She owes Charlotte and will do everything she can to bring Charlotte home and back to her mother.
