General Hospital has woven two stories together – and while it hasn’t made a great deal of sense, it did give us a couple of great moments on today’s episode.
First, there’s mortal enemies (okay, that may be a bit melodramatic but still…) Hayden and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) finding out they’re half sisters.
The other story involves Dr. Hamilton Finn and his fatal mystery disease where the supposed cure is something that brings joy to junkies everywhere, making people think those with this illness are in fact drug addicts. Today, both stories took a step forward… for a minute.
A Shocking Development
Finn finally gave Hayden (Rebecca Budig) the test results we all feared (well, those of us who don’t realize it’s a soap and know there’s no way they’re killing these two popular characters).

Nothing Can Stop Her

The second story also finally gave us a moment worth savoring. A desperate Finn (Michael Easton) was trying to figure out how he could score more of the magic drug, now that his current stash of magic meds have to help them both.
Feeling defeated, his best asset in his fight for life, declared for him why he shouldn’t give up. “I’m Tracy Angelica Quartermaine. Nothing, nothing, nothing is impossible.”
We should all have someone like Tracy (Jane Elliot) in our corner when the chips are down, the turkey is poisoned, and your ex-husband’s a serial killer.
