Spoilers for what happened on General Hospital on February 5, 2026

Jordan advises Justine

Justine runs into Jordan at the gym. The DA asks Jordan about old cases involving Sonny and questions about the suspects in those cases. As a former police commissioner, Jordan remembers how often Sonny was questioned but rarely charged due to a lack of solid evidence.

The two continue to discuss with Justine, favoring Sonny, and wondering if the authorities were so focused on him that they let the real culprit walk away every time. After a long talk, Jordan points out to the DA that Sonny might be influencing her to save Michael.

A date gone wrong

Chase and Brook Lynn are at Bobbie’s for lunch when he overhears Molly discussing Michael’s questioning over the phone. He interjects and asks for details, but Molly doesn’t entertain. Chase then returns to his table to discuss it with his wife, but she becomes furious for still trying to get involved.

Molly’s publishing concerns

Ric joins Molly at the restaurant. She confides in him about her worries regarding the book’s publication, which may upset Cody since the character was based on him. Ric suggests that Cody’s reaction may be due to his insecurities and encourages her to talk to him. Molly then returns the advice to Ric, asking him to fix things with Elizabeth.

A Corinthos gathering

Michael calls his parents, Sonny and Carly, over to the house and informs them about his custody agreement with Willow. Carly is upset about the arrangement and even shocked that Sonny suggested it. But Michael explains that it was the only way he could have handled it, knowing that there is a chance he will be put on trial. He also assures both of them that he didn’t shoot the congressman.

Curtis threatens Portia

Curtis seeks legal advice from Alexis on how to force Portia to take a paternity test. But the lawyer refuses to help and advises him to talk to his wife before taking a rash decision. Meanwhile, Portia returns to the hospital after getting her medical license back.

Later, Curtis arrives at the hospital and warns Portia that she has one week to get the paternity test done, or he’ll get a court order. She doesn’t take the threat well and pushes back. She says that she’ll not be forced into it and that he can get a court order if he so desires.

Willow makes a bold confession

At the hospital, Lucas is making the final preparations to discharge Drew. Liz explains to Willow about the risks she’s taking by caring for Drew at home, but Willow feels confident.

Meanwhile, Kai is making preparations at Drew’s house. Trina shows up and says that he needs to resign and get away from all the trouble. But before they can finish their conversation, Willow arrives with Drew. They help Willow and Drew settle down and visit Alexis to inform her that Drew is home.

Back at the house, Willow ensures Drew understands her by asking him to blink. When he does, she confesses that she is the one who shot him.
