Family is a big theme in the General Hospital spoilers for October 1. It’s a father-son face-off when Dante confronts Sonny. Willow pulls some strings, most likely to get her mother out of a supermax prison. It’s a sibling showdown when Scout and Danny clash. Michael counsels his cousin, Brook Lynn. Lulu seeks out her stepmonster stepmother, Tracy. Here’s your Thursday preview.

Key Takeaways

  • Dante confronts Sonny about the Sidwell attack and must decide whether to believe his father.
  • Willow pulls some strings as Nina remains locked away in Steinmauer.
  • Scout clashes with Danny after his anger at Rocco boils over.
  • Lulu seeks out Tracy, while Michael counsels Brook Lynn.

Sonny Denies Ordering the Hit, But Will Dante Believe Him?

How did Sonny (Maurice Benard) get back here? When Sidwell (Carlo Rota) came to town, he framed Laura (Genie Francis) for killing Dalton (Daniel Goddard). But Sonny got caught up in it as well. And so Sidwell had leverage over the coffee importer. Sonny had to sell his waterfront property to the man.

And now Sonny is most likely being framed for ordering the beatdown that sent Sidwell and Curtis (Donnell Turner) to the hospital. According to Ric (Rick Hearst), they were beaten within an inch of their lives. Sidwell is in a bad way. And now all signs are pointing to Sonny. In fact, one of the thugs dropped Sonny’s name as they left the cell.

Sonny insists he didn’t do this. He wanted to protect Sidwell because he knew that if something happened, he would get the blame. Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), the acting police commissioner, removed himself from the investigation.

But he has been highly suspicious that his dad was behind this. Well, Sonny will get to make a case for his innocence when Dante confronts Sonny. Will Dante believe his father?

Willow Makes Some Behind-the-Scenes Moves

Nina (Cynthia Watros) has supported Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) through all of her crimes, misdemeanors, and breakdowns. Willow is finally the one who has to do the rescuing. Drew (Cameron Mathison) framed Nina for Brennan’s disappearance.

Even though the WSB doesn’t have a body, they are holding Nina responsible and sent her to Steinmauer. But Willow is a congresswoman. The weekly teasers suggest that she pulls some strings. So maybe this is her best chance at getting her mother out of that supermax prison.

Trouble Teen Thursday as Siblings Battle

Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) and Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) clashing on Thursday isn’t a shocking development. After all, on Wednesday’s episode, Danny will take out all of his anger and frustration on his brother.

In both the daily and the weekly video previews, we see Danny punch Rocco (Finn Carr). Danny is heartbroken over Charlotte (Bluesy Burke, who has exited GH for now) going to boarding school, and he blames Rocco for it. And now he’ll have to answer to his sister.

In Other Port Charles News

Lulu (Alexa Havins) seeks out Tracy (Jane Elliot), someone who will help her make sense of what she just had to do. She had to make the heartbreaking decision to align herself with Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) and agree to send Charlotte away to a boarding school in Maine.

Meanwhile, Michael (Rory Gibson) counsels Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton). Is Michael the best person to help Brook Lynn right now? He doesn’t think she should save her marriage.

And he’s actively rooting for Chase (Josh Swickard) and Willow to hook up so he can keep the upper hand with Willow. Maybe he’ll attempt to put those things aside for Brook Lynn’s greater good.
