It was one of those days in Port Charles where if you missed even a moment, then you probably missed out on something big. Sidwell gave Tracy business advice, Willow reconnected with an ex, and Michael knows that she was the one moving baby Daisy around.
Here is a full recap for the Tuesday, Aug. 5, 2025, episode of “General Hospital.”
Michael Is on to Willow
ABCDante and Michael returned from a workout, and Michael began thinking out loud about missing Daisy. He shares details with Dante about how the newborn was moved around the house and had her clothing changed. He explains that he doesn’t think someone connected to Sonny is involved because these are not the kind of things that mobsters do. Michael believes it was Willow doing it for payback.
He explains to Dante how she knows the layout of the house and the GH NICU, where incidents occurred. She also knows where all of the security cameras are and how to stay undetected by them. Dante offers to open up a case, but Michael suggests that he wait. Michael says that if it were Willow, then it would change everything. She’ll never be allowed near her children again.
Speaking of Willow, she bumps into Chase, her ex, at the hospital. The nurse asks if he can tell her anything about her kids, and the little bit that Chase mentions makes Willow realize that Wylie and Amelia are changing without her there. The two talk about how much work she has to do before her hearing in October, and Chase volunteers to testify on her behalf if it would help.
As their conversation wraps up, Carly appears. Willow begins to apologize to her for a handful of things, but Carly doesn’t want to hear it. She tells her that she’ll never believe her and she’s not the one needing the apology anyway.,
Sidwell Tells Marco His Foolproof Plan for Sonny
ABCTracy, Sidwell and Marco are seated at the Metro Court, and discussing Deception business. She tells them that they found out that a portion of Sonny’s investment in the company was freshly laundered money. They have severed ties and returned his investment, and now she is ready to bring everything to the police. Sidwell and Marco both tell her not to because she has waited too long.
Marco, as an attorney, explains that her assets will immediately be frozen and every scrap of paper will be analyzed, ultimately destroying her business. Tracy says that she doesn’t want to take advice from the likes of Sidwell and storms out, leaving the father and son alone. Sidwell tells Marco that he already has a plan in action to take Sonny down. He explained that he paid off the judge in Michael’s custody case using an untraceable wire.
Once the police are tipped off about the judge being bought, everyone will believe Sonny did it, including Michael. Plus, Willow will get the kids. Sidwell is sure that Sonny will do whatever he asks to prevent that from happening.
Sonny Also Has a Plan
ABCSpeaking of Sonny, he and Jason are talking after a baseball game. Jason tells him that he is positive that he saw Britt at the airport in France, and then over the phone while calling a resort. Sonny realizes Jason is serious and thinks he must be on to something. ADA Turner interrupts with a flirty interaction about playing baseball against each other in the next game. After she leaves, he tells Jason that she is building a case against him, so he is purposely flirting. By the time the case is filed, she will need to recuse herself because of their public flirtation.
Many people are enjoying a night out at the Metro Court. Portia and Curtis are having a celebratory dinner because he thinks he and Drew may have called a truce. Portia is hopeful, but not very trusting of the situation. More importantly, she and Curtis decide to get their marriage back on track. By her standing up and refusing to be blackmailed anymore, Curtis realized that she is still the woman that he married. He also now understands that if he had been approachable, then she wouldn’t have carried the secrets alone.
