Here are your General Hospital spoilers for Monday, September 16, in Port Charles.

What to expect on General Hospital

Alexis warned Sonny that she was about to be arrested, but Sonny remained in denial until Mac showed up at Alexis' door. Mac hauled Alexis off in handcuffs right in front of Sonny's face, charging her with a murder he committed.

Now, Alexis has to find a way out of this mess, since Sonny doesn't seem to want to help her by confessing. Sam joins her mother at the Port Charles police station so she and Alexis can put their heads together and come up with a solid plan. Perhaps they should figure out a way to get Sonny to do the right thing after murdering a man in cold blood. Alexis is going to need a good lawyer. Can Sam help her find one?

Kristina on the warpath

Kristina confessed to Michael that she considered shooting John that fateful night at the Quartermaines', but she lost her nerve and drove away. However, she is pretty sure Molly is the one who told the police that Kristina left Alexis' house that night, putting suspicion on her and their mother.

A furious Kristina confronts Molly and wants to know why Molly would be so vindictive as to put her own family in legal danger. Kristina and Molly may be on the outs, but Kristina assumed that family would stick together at a time like this. Can Molly and Kristina put their differences aside and stand behind Alexis like their sister Sam is doing?
