Sonny’s Darkest General Hospital Hour: SUICIDE!

Published by

The writing was on the wall in Thursday’s episode of General Hospital. Sonny’s guilt overwhelms him, and he needs to do something to relieve his conscience. Carly didn’t go for the idea of a philanthropic effort to help others like Morgan, and he feels he has no place to turn.

Telling Nelle (Chloe Lanier) he’s planning to just leave town doesn’t sound like Sonny at all. He knows no matter where he goes, he’ll always be a sitting duck for some mob rival and so will his family. When he left that note with Carly’s name, it felt ominous.

It’s clear Sonny has fallen into his lowest pit of despair and may not even be taking his meds. Will Jason (Billy Miller) be the one who has to save him again–or will Carly be there for her husband–despite her anger and pain?
