General Hospital Recap: Lesley Saves The Day Against Cyrus

The General Hospital recap for Friday, February 26, 2021, features Lesley saving the day, Jackie pleading her case, Franco planning a move, and Maxie looking for a sign from the other side.

General Hospital Recap Highlight

Thanks to the publishing of a salacious, though no less truthful, article about his past exploits, plus a spirited plea for reason from Lesley Webber (Denise Alexander), Cyrus (Jeff Kober) learned that his proposal before the GH board of directors had been rejected.

In response, Cyrus stomped off, and a jubilant Lesley reveled in her victory with Laura (Genie Francis). She let her daughter in on the fact that Monica had helped, shocking and pleasing Laura that they found a way to work together. Then Lesley announced she was heading off to check on her granddaughter.

Ex Factors

After Sam (Kelly Monaco) tipped his hand, Curtis (Donnell Turner) was forced to explain his change of employ to Jordan (Briana Nicole Henry). She was surprised that he’d give up his P.I.’s license, while he was a little surprised that she still cared so much, and both of them agreed that they looked fantastic in their wedding attire.

Meanwhile, Finn (Michael Easton) cut a bonding session with Gregory (Gregory Harrison) and Chase (Josh Swickard) short so he could sneak off to GH and pick up the DNA test he ordered all those week’s ago.

Jackie caught his arrival; he admitted to running the tests to prove Chase’s paternity, and she scolded him for taking action despite the potentially devastating consequences. Once he was properly chastened, Finn agreed to put a pin in the debate…at least for the time being.

Night Moves

Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) walked in on an argument between Franco (Roger Howarth) and Cameron (William Lipton), and learned about Franco’s near attack on his step-son as well as Cameron’s plan to forgo college.

Raucous discourse followed, and it was decided that Cameron’s scholastic decision would be tabled and that Franco’s living arrangements were changing. Then Jason (Steve Burton) arrived with questions concerning Franco’s freak out at GH. Color him shocked to learn that Franco’s been hearing Peter August’s (Wes Ramsey) voice in his head.

Runaway Bride

With only hours to spare before her wedding ceremony’s commencement, Anna (Finola Hughes) welcomed Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) into her home and began formulating a plan on how to best neutralize Peter…preferably BEFORE he and Maxie (Kirsten Storms) say, “I do.”

Maxie, for her part, forwent wedding day preparations, and instead headed for Nathan’s grave…hoping against hope that she’d recieve some divine sign that her  impending marriage wasn’t a mistake. Instead, she was blindsided by an unseen presence! General Hospital airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
