Valentin is back and ready to cause all-new trouble for Port Charles, but it seems not everyone can be trusted after the December 8, 2025 episode of General Hospital.

Key Takeaways

  • Valentin showed up at Carly’s house, looking for a hide out.
  • The PCPD and WSB were in scrambles after learning Valentin had escaped.
  • Lulu panicked while Charlotte revealed her true intentions.

Valentin’s New Hiding Spot

Everyone found out at once: Brennan (Chris McKenna) received an alert, the PCPD got a call, and Carly (Laura Wright) got the real thing. Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) had escaped his prison transfer and was back in Port Charles. More specifically, in Carly’s house.

Carly initially declined Valentin’s request to hide him out there, considering she’s got not one but two WSB agents in close quarters. But Valentin assured her that her house was the last place anyone would suspect, just before Joss (Eden McCoy) walked in.

Valentin hid on the porch before Joss could discovery him, but she did warn her mother that he had escaped, reminding her of Valentin’s relationship with her boyfriend. While Joss went up to her room to stay the night, Carly finally agreed to let Valentin hide out in the shed.

Meanwhile, the rest of Port Charles wound up in shambles over the news, starting with Lulu (Alexa Havins), whose panic was enough for her whole family. Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) was asked into the PCPD to make sure Valentin hadn’t reached out to her, and Chase (Josh Swickard) arrived at Wyndemere to see if the fugitive had shown up at his old family home.

Charlotte’s Confession

The only person not panicking nor protesting Valentin’s arrival was, of course, Charlotte (Bluesy Burke). Her only concern was her papa’s safety, and she outright admitted to her mother that if Valentin found her, there was a chance she would take off with him again.

While wherever Charlotte is has become the prime lead for both the PCPD and the WSB, it appears Valentin is smarter than the two of those combined. He chose the one location no one would look, with the one person no one would suspect. Now, he’s going to be right under the WSB’s noses.
