Victor Cassadine Is Gleeful That His Pathogen Is Safe

The General Hospital recap features Victor Cassdine finding a long-buried pathogen that could save the Earth — with a price.

General Hospital Recap Highlights

In this episode, Victor and his hostages arrived at an underground lab in Greenland and hoped for the best. Back in Port Charles, Anna was the one who pretty much deduced what Victor was up to. But, there was still a wedding for Willow to get ready for despite her stage four cancer. Nina tried to hide her hurt but when left alone with Ava, she revealed that Carly was about to face some consequences for her actions. Now, let’s dig a little deeper into the details.

General Hospital Recap: Victor Cassadine Finds The Pathogen

Somewhere in Greenland, Victor (Charles Shaughnessy) was so thrilled to find his underground pathogen-filled bunker that he hugged the door with glee. When he finally made it to the other side of the door, he was thrilled to see a lab ready for his big plan to save the world while killing off half of humanity. When his goons brought Spencer (Nicholas Alexander Chavez), Trina (Tabyana Ali), and Liesl (Kathleen Gati) into the lab, he told them this was the future. Too bad Liesl said she could not work in such an old, cold lab, but Victor didn’t care because this was the dawning of a new age.

Right there, sitting on ice, was his pathogen, and Victor looked like he could jump for joy. Victor was proud to show off the pathogen to his hostages, but Liesl still seemed hesitant to do Victor’s dirty work. He needed her to make sure the pathogen would still work. He insisted the pathogen wasn’t active, only activated by UV light. Liesl asked for protective clothing and a controlled environment.

Liesl told him the pathogen was no longer effective, so he said she would take it to the surface to test it, so Liesl was forced to admit she had been lying. Victor told her if she was quick with her scientific work, he would send her back to Port Charles so she could save her niece’s life.

General Hospital Recap: Figuring Out Victor Cassadine

Back in Port Charles, Anna (Finola Hughes) was worried that Laura (Genie Francis), Valentin (James Patrick Stuart), Drew (Cameron Mathison), and Curtis (Donnell Turner) were walking into a trap, knowing that Victor was using technology he and Mikkos developed back in the 1980s. Holly elaborated on Ethan’s (James Ryan) info and told Anna and Robert that the only people who would be safe from Victor’s plan are the ones closest to him, meaning his loved ones.

Holly theorized that Victor may have had a bomb, but nobody could figure out why Victor took Liesl. They certainly didn’t think Liesl was considered someone Victor now loves. All Holly could remember was the kind of person that Liesl was 10 years ago, but Robert (Tristan Rogers) acknowledged that she now changed. Finally, it hit them that Victor might have a bio-weapon and that is why he needed Liesl — he wanted her scientific expertise. All Anna could do was hope the WSB would now step in.

GH Recap: Willow Is A Blushing Dying Bride

Carly (Laura Wright) gushed over the bride and groom as they sat on the couch looking into one another’s eyes. Joss soon arrived with her dress, and everyone just smiled and hugged one another. Michael (Chad Duell) left for the main house, where he happily had a drink with Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Chase (Josh Swickard), but it was hard to look too far into the future with a dying bride. When Sonny (Maurice Benard) arrived, things got awkward as Michael didn’t even look like he wanted his father there.

Back at the gatehouse, Maxie (Kirsten Storms), Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), and Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) got Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) all made up, and she looked less like she was dying of cancer than ever before, which is a hard feat for someone who already looks so good when at stage four for months with almost no treatment. They all assured her that Drew would find Liesl so they could get her hands on that prized bone marrow. When Bobbie (Jacklyn Zeman) showed up, she told Willow that the allegedly late Luke (Tony Geary) would have liked Willow, and she was touched.

General Hospital Recap: Nina Wants Carly To Face Consequences

Nina (Cynthia Watros) covered for herself when Sonny asked why she was talking to Martin (Michael E. Knight) on the phone, saying she wanted to open a trust for Amelia and Wiley. Soon, Ava arrived with flower girl Avery (Ava and Grace Scarola) so Sonny could take her to the wedding. Sonny took her into the kitchen for a snack, leaving Ava and Nina alone to talk. Nina had a gift for Willow in her hands, but Ava warned her that giving her daughter a beautiful bracelet like that would cross the boundaries Willow had set up between them.

After Sonny and Avery left, Ava insisted on staying to make sure Nina would be okay. Ava brought up Carly’s and Nina’s visits to Wyndemere and told her to get used to Carly’s presence cause she wasn’t going anywhere. The two women soon decided to just have a drink and relax, but that was easier said than done for Nina. Nina was incredulous that Carly gets to have a close relationship with Willow after lying to both of them for nine months. She admitted she has also done wrong things, but she’s faced consequences when Carly never has. Well, Nina said she intended to balance the scales, and Ava knew her BFF had done something dumb.
