It’s official. Whenever Ava and Grace Scarola appear as Avery Corinthos on General Hospital, they steal the show. Today, they stole the month.

With so much gloom and doom surrounding two deaths in two months (Sabrina and Morgan), Sonny (Maurice Benard) contemplating suicide and Alexis’s descent into alcoholism.

Let’s not forget creepy Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) walking free and raising a kid, an old rapist back in town, Hayden contracting Finn’s seemingly fatal disease, among other things–seeing this little girl rising above it all living a happy-go-lucky life is refreshing.

Sure, her mother is a sociopath who stole her brother’s bipolar meds, leading him to a manic episode that led to his death. And, of course, her father is a bipolar crime lord now under house arrest, and her uncle held a dagger to his wife’s neck earlier this year–but don’t tell Avery.

Then, William deVry leaves the scene as Julian and she has to know, “What happened?” Maura West (a mother of six, so no stranger to kids) just went right along and didn’t miss a beat.

Ava and Grace, you did a good job, and we hope you light up our GH screens for years to come.
