Heather asks Laura to stand down

General Hospital Recap for Thursday, July 11, 2024

Felicia arrived at the stables to see Cody, and he told her to "let me have it," as he deserved it. She advised him not to give up on Mac and not to leave town. She asked for his side of things, as Mac believed that Cody had an agenda. Cody believed that no one would want a son like him, and he'd been alone so long that he didn't know how to feel when suddenly becoming part of a family. He continued that Mac would never trust him again, but Felicia advised him that if he gave Mac some time, they would both get what they wanted.

Mac arrived at Maxie's, and she informed him that she wanted to talk about Cody. She didn't understand why he was taking such a hard line with Cody, as Mac had always forgiven her when she'd messed up. Mac replied that Cody clearly didn't want love and acceptance from Mac. Maxie replied that Cody had made a mistake, and he'd changed. Mac thought that Cody had an ulterior motive.

Just then, Felicia arrived, looking for her phone. Maxie called it as they all looked around, and Cody answered, as Felicia had left it at the stables. Maxie made sure that Cody had heard their voices, and she hung up. A short while later, there was a knock on the door. Maxie answered it to Cody, who had Felicia's phone, and he and Mac spotted each other.

There was a knock on Jordan's office door, and Portia entered. She revealed to Jordan that she was thinking about gathering signatures to put a measure on the fall ballot, recalling Laura from office. Jordan knew that it was about Heather, and she assured Portia that Laura was only asking questions with no specific goal in mind. Portia countered that Laura wasn't thinking about the consequences. Jordan explained that Laura's main concern had always been fairness, but Jordan didn't think it was fair for Heather's victims and their families. Jordan advised Portia to give it time and see what happened. Portia wondered how Jordan would feel if her son had been targeted by Heather, and she stormed out.

Heather sat down with Laura at Pentonville, and Laura handed a grateful Heather a photo of Ace. Heather informed Laura that she knew that Laura was looking into her case. She appreciated Laura caring about her, but she urged Laura to stop. While she hated it there, Heather said that she needed to stay locked up, and she didn't want to be "put to the test" out in the real world, just in case her murderous feelings returned. Laura wanted to help Heather, but Heather replied that if Laura wanted to help, all she needed to do was care for Ace and visit occasionally with photos of their grandson. "Let me pay for my crimes in peace," she concluded. Laura agreed if that was what Heather really wanted, and Heather nodded.

Kristina arrived at the Quartermaines' and talked with Brook Lynn about Natalia. Kristina clarified that Ava was the one who'd released the recording, so she should be the one to pay. Blaze arrived, and Brook Lynn explained that she wanted to set up an interview for them to respond to everything that had happened in order to show who they really were. Blaze thought it was a great idea, and Kristina chimed in, "We're in."

A short while later, Brook Lynn had just hung up the phone when Chase found her. They talked about how happy Violet seemed with the other kids and all the activities. Brook Lynn updated Chase on the interview she was setting up for Blaze and Kristina, and he thought it was a good idea. He mentioned that his bereavement leave was over the next day, but he believed that they needed to be physically present for Violet. He wanted to talk to Anna and Mac to see if he could work three days a week, and Brook Lynn added that she could do most of her work from home. She counted herself lucky to be able to see what kind of father Chase was going to be in the future. She expressed that she was certain she'd picked the right guy, and they shared a kiss.

In Ava's room, Sonny refused to leave. "Is there a problem here?" John asked from the doorway of the room. Sonny ordered him to mind his own business, but Ava chimed in that she was having a difficult time getting Sonny to leave. She added that he'd threatened her, and it was all recorded on Sonny's phone. Sonny didn't know why he would do that, and he deleted the recording.

John sarcastically said that he was surprised to hear Sonny fighting. Sonny shot back that he fought to protect his kids, and he wondered where John's son was. "To be continued," Sonny said, and he left. Ava thanked John for stepping in, and she invited him to stay for a drink.

A few minutes later, Ava explained her custody battle with Sonny, and she remarked how volatile he'd been. She didn't think he had any business having sole custody of their little girl, and John agreed. She wondered if he would be willing to make a statement to Scott about it. He explained that he was in town in a professional capacity, but Ava clarified that she was asking him as a father, not as an FBI agent. He promised to think about it, and she commented that she would need all the help she could get. John replied that she wouldn't have to worry about Sonny for much longer, as Sonny would soon be behind bars where he belonged if John had anything to say about it.

Sonny arrived at Alexis' and told her about Ava's custody suit. He asked for Alexis' support, but she was uncomfortable keeping a mother away from her child completely. Rethinking it, he asked if she would take the stand and say that he'd been a good father to Kristina. She replied that she could do that, but if she was asked for her approval on what he did for a living, she would have to tell the truth. A few minutes later, Kristina arrived, and she told her parents about the interview. Sonny and Alexis agreed that it was a good idea and that Kristina was very brave. Kristina thanked them for teaching her to stand up for what she believed in, and Sonny talked about how proud he was of her.
