In the October 27 episode of General Hospital, Gio visited Curtis and Dante and got brutally honest about his suspicions that Sonny wasn’t lying about the attacks. Gio wore his heart on his sleeve as he struggled to accept what Dante and Curtis were telling him because he believed his grandfather.
Key Takeaways
- Curtis reminded Gio of his friendship and working relationship with Trina.
- Gio admitted to Dante that he wasn’t convinced Sonny was guilty.
- The situation with Sonny has left Gio guilt-ridden, and that could cost him.
Gio Meets With Curtis
From the second Gio (Giovanni Mazza) learned that Sonny (Maurice Benard) was behind the attacks on Sidwell (Carlo Rotta) and Curtis (Donnell Turner), he has struggled to figure out the truth. Gio moved out of Sonny’s house, but that didn’t mean he believed Sonny was guilty.
On a mission to gather more information, Gio visited Curtis and asked whether he might have been wrong about Sonny. In true Curtis fashion, his mind was made up, and nothing Gio said made a difference.
Before he left, Curtis told Gio he would do him a favor and not tell Trina (Tabyana Ali) that Gio had stopped by for a visit about Sonny. It wasn’t a warning but rather a reminder for Gio about what was at stake if he continued to fight for his grandfather.
Dante Doesn’t Back Down
After he met with Curtis, Gio popped by Dante’s (Dominic Zamprogna) for a father-son visit. It was the first time they had seen each other since Gio walked in on Sonny and Dante’s fight.
They discussed Dante giving Gio space after that day, which Gio appreciated. Things took a turn when Dante declared he was glad Gio saw the light about Sonny and moved out.
Gio pressed his father about whether they judged Sonny too quickly, citing how broken up Sonny was that his loved ones didn’t believe him. Dante reinterred to Gio that that was just Sonny’s way.
That Sonny lies and has used his family as an excuse for it. Gio was broken up as he listened to Dante, clearly conflicted over who and what to believe.
Gio Is Right About Sonn,y but It Could Cost Him
It was easy to see watching Gio that his heart and gut are Team Sonny. The internal struggle Gio has been feeling has been eating him up. Gio isn’t the type of guy to turn on someone he loves, especially when he isn’t convinced that person is guilty.
That’s the case with Sonny. Gio seems hard-pressed to walk away from Sonny. In fact, he appears to be gearing up to stand by Sonny, which will pay off at some point. The truth will come out that Drew (Cameron Mathison) and Ava (Maura West) were behind the attacks.
However, until that point, some of Gio’s important relationships are in jeopardy. Trina has made it clear to Gio how she feels about his grandfather. Pushing the narrative of Sonny’s innocence will strain that friendship.
Emma (Braedyn Bruner) has stood by Gio’s side as he dealt with the reality of being Sonny’s grandson. She has no problems with Sonny, but she also values her close friendship with Trina. Problems between Gio and Trina could strain his relationship with Emma.
