General Hospital Recap: Tracy Blackmails Nina Into Helping Her Destroy Sonny

General Hospital Recap: Tracy Blackmails Nina Into Helping Her Destroy Sonny originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's General Hospital recap: Lucas worries Sonny grabbed Marco, but Carly says she spoke with Sonny. Lucas says he'll check the church but is certain Marco won't' be there. Marco continues to bang on the door, yelling at whoever grabbed him to let him go, and not to escalate the violence. Jason tells his goon to guard the door and not let Marco out. After Jason leaves, Marco claims he's diabetic and needs to eat something. When the goon opens the door, Marco tries to crack him over the head with the chair. Sidwell demands to know what Sonny has done to Marco, claiming he's done nothing to provoke Sonny. Sidwell claims he didn't set the fire at Charlie's, as it was Selina but Sonny doesn't believe him. Sonny says family shouldn't be targeted but Sidwell came at him first. Sidwell says Marco saved Kristina, but Sonny says he dragged Marco into their mess. Sonny says he wants Sidwell to clean up the political mess and get out of his way. Sidwell puts the blame on Laura, by putting Measure C on the ballot. Sonny tells Sidwell to make sure it doesn't pass. Sidwell says Sonny has alienated everyone and will lose his piers and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Sonny warns him to figure something out or he won't see his son again. Sonny tells Sidwell to pull all of his money from Measure C and fix what he created. Lucas gets to the church, but Jason stops him from going in. Lucas demands to know where Marco is, but Jason tells him to leave. Lucas begs Jason to tell him whether Marco will die. He says it's not right to bring innocent people into the war, but Jason says Sidwell started it. Lucas says Jason's "code" will be a lie and he'll be as bad as Sidwell. Lucas begs Sonny to let Marco go and says if he doesn't show up alive, he'll tell the police all about the deal Sonny made with Natalia. Sonny says the police already know and tells Lucas to leave it. Sidwell tells Lucas that Sonny has Marco and asks him to intervene. He says Lucas needs to save Marco, but Lucas says if Marco is alive then he should give Sonny what he wants. Lucas yells at Sidwell that when he set fire to Charlie's, he put a target on Marco's back. Lucas says Marco's life is in Sidwell's hands. Previous General Hospital (GH) Recap: Jason Leaves Marco Bound and Gagged Tracy tells Nina she has a proposition for her that will benefit both of them. She says she despises Sonny and worries about the bond between him and Gio. Nina defends Sonny but Tracy's determined to protect Gio. Tracy wants Nina's influence with Crimson to get voters to vote for Measure C. Nina says Aurora has already done a hit piece on Sonny and defends him more. Tracy says Sonny killed AJ and won't allow something like that to happen to Gio. Nina says Sonny will do anything to protect his children, but Tracy brings up Morgan. Tracy then brings up Wylie and Amelia and thinks Nina would want them as far away from Sonny as she does. Nina says she still cares for Sonny and wants Tracy to help Willow get access to her kids in exchange. Tracy refuses, saying Nina will do what she wants, or she'll tell Willow she slept with Drew. Nina is shocked but Tracy says she had a PI confirm it. Nina admits it, saying it was brief and meant nothing and was over before Drew and Willow started, but begrudgingly agrees to do what Tracy wants. Willow interrupts Michael to ask about the children. He says Wylie is still confused because of her. Willow blames Michael for everything and warns Sasha he'll do the same to her. Michael says Willow deliberately created the scene at the pool, but Willow says Wylie is her son. Michael says she can't be trusted with the kids and Diane has pushed the visitation hearing to October. Willow says she can't go three months, but Michael tells her to take that time to dump Drew. Willow says she's marrying Drew and Michael says she won't see her kids again. Willow tries to appeal to Sasha, saying her kids need her, but Michael says they don't need her in her current state. Drew shows up at Carly's telling her it's her last chance to save her grandchildren. Drew brings up the altercation at the pool, but Carly blames Willow. Drew says Willow deserves to see her kids and wants Carly to get Michael to compromise. He warns her things will get really ugly if she doesn't. Carly says Michael told Willow she could see the kids if she dumped Drew, but he says he won't abandon Willow. Carly says Willow is always doing what Drew wants rather than taking care of her kids. She says Willow is only devoted to Drew and will never ask Michael to back down. Drew calls her a hypocrite but Carly says Willow doesn't even think for herself. Drew warns if Michael refuses to compromise, it will cause him more misery Carly summons Sonny and argues with him about Marco and Lucas' feelings. She begs him not to do anything else; she doesn't want anyone hurt. When Jason returns to the warehouse, his goon has overtaken Marco and handcuffed him to the chair. Nina runs into Sasha and Daisy on her way out. Sasha tells her that she's leaving and says goodbye. Michael tells Tracy he's sending Daisy away to keep her safe.

'General Hospital' says goodbye to Sasha actress Sofia Mattsson: 'You'll always have a home to come back to'

General Hospital is bidding adieu to Sasha Gilmore. After seven years on the ABC soap, Sofia Mattson departed GH in Friday's episode of the show. The ep saw Sasha reunite with her dad, Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers) for the second time this week, following Rogers' real-life announcement that he has been diagnosed with cancer. Sasha ultimately decided to leave Port Charles to spend time with her parents and her newborn daughter, Daisy, who was being threatened back home. Jason (Steve Burton), who escorted Sasha out of Port Charles, wished her goodbye — in such a way that leaves the door open for her return. "You'll always have a home to come back to," he said. A representative for the show explained the actress' exit to TV Insider on Friday — and noted that Mattsson's departure may not be permanent. "There was a good time in the storyline for Sofia to leave to pursue other opportunities in film and TV," they shared. "But she is open for a return in the future." Mattson described her final day on set in an interview with TV Insider. "It was emotional for sure," she said. "Cleaning out my room and knowing that I wouldn't see all my friends there like usual every other day felt sad. But everyone was so supportive and excited for me." The actress said departing the show feels "bittersweet," and she looks forward to the new opportunities ahead. "I've had such a great time, but I'm also excited for a new chapter and to continue my acting journey in new projects," she said. Mattson also said she'd consider returning to soap acting if the right opportunity arose. "I'd have to see what the role was, but I'm definitely not opposed to coming back to the soap world," she said. "I think being on a soap is one of the best jobs you can have as an actress."Mattson first joined GH in September 2018, and went on to appear in over 500 episodes of the show. Her sister, actress Helena Mattsson, stepped in to play Sasha in her absence for two episodes in February 2022. Outside of General Hospital, Mattson has appeared in episodes of NCIS, Two and a Half Men, and StartUp. She has also appeared in movies like Becoming Bond, Jurassic City, and Adrenochrome.
