'General Hospital' weekly recap: Week of 11/18-11/22

In the courtroom, Diane asked Dante if Lulu was lying. He pretended that the question was unclear. Diane reminded him that he was under oath and an officer of the law and the judge asked him to respond truthfully. Dante answered, "Yes, she lied." He then elaborated that Lulu didn't mean it and that there was no plan to run away with Connie. Diane then got Dante to admit that he talked Lulu out of running away with baby Connie. Dante then returned to Lulu's side and apologized for not having a choice. Lulu claimed that he did and that he just didn't choose them. At the opposing table, Spinelli worried about Lulu. Maxie and Diane didn't care and agreed that it was a gift that Lulu had lied. Diane was now ready to close but Spinelli wanted to take the stand. He addressed Dante and Lulu and said that he couldn't believe it had come to this. He then reminded them that they were friends...family…all hurting each other. He then affirmed to Diane he did want to raise his daughter. After, Diane and Alexis gave their closing statements. The judge broke for a recess. Lulu pulled away from Dante to rush out of the court room while Diane invited Alexis for a drink. Alexis told her she wasn’t interested. Mac and Felicia told Maxie that they believed things will work out in her favor. Later, the court reconvened and they wait for the judge’s ruling.

At GH, Patrick gave Luke and Tracy the news that there was no trace of polonium in Luke's system. Sabrina held Connie while Tracy hugged Patrick, but he said he wouldn't accept credit and that they should thank their mysterious doctor. Luke then wanted to see Anna. Patrick told him that Anna hadn't been heard from since she left the clinic with Robert and that Duke thought they went to track Faison after he escaped with Obrecht. Luke then told Patrick that Obrecht was on Cassadine Island with Jerry. Patrick thought Nikolas might know something since hadn't seen Duke since he went to Wyndemere. Luke then left for Wyndemere.

In the lab, Carlos realized Robin wasn’t Sabrina but said he thought he knew her from somewhere. Robin claimed that her name was Epiphany and asked if he was Sabrina's ex. He realized she sounded as thrilled as he did about the impending wedding. Robin told him that she hoped it works out between him and Sabrina. Carlos left and then saw a photo of the real Epiphany in the hall. Then, Carlos remembered seeing a picture of Robin at Patrick's house. Alone, Robin finished her work on the cure and left for Wyndemere. Meanwhile, Carlos ran back to the lab, bumped into Sabrina and told her that Patrick's wife was alive.

In the catacombs of Wyndemere, Duke encouraged Obrecht to go after Faison. Faison didn't think she would dare but she wielded the knife in his direction. Duke watched, helplessly, as Obrecht and Faison struggled until Faison overpowered Obrecht and knocked her unconscious. Faison then tied her up next to Duke and promised that he'd never stop until he had Anna. Then, Faison left them. Alone, Obrecht came to and thought Faison would never have Anna, not with Jerry holding her captive. She then taunted Duke with the fact that Anna was being held prisoner with her ex. Duke still told Obrecht that she needed to turn on Faison.

Upstairs, Nikolas and Britt stopped kissing. Britt said that she didn't see that coming. He laughed when she blamed it on them being held hostage. Nikolas said that was a load of crap and that she must know there was something between them. Britt replied that she didn't want to hurt him. Nikolas confessed that he's made mistakes in his life too. She then added that had never been with someone who was good for her and that she was scared. Nikolas admitted he was too and he kissed her again. They kissed until Faison came out of the wall. Faison told them to stop kissing and that his daughter could do better than Nikolas. Britt told him that he didn’t have a say in her actions then asked where her mother was. Faison lied saying that he didn't know where she was. Britt and Nikolas found Faison's demeanor creepier than usual. Then, Robin returned and admitted to almost being detected. She then told them that the cure will be ready soon. Suddenly, Luke announced his arrival.

On Cassadine Island, Robert's gum-thumb scan worked to open the lab’s inner doors, bur an alarm sounded and two guards and Jerry waited outside the outer doors. Anna and Robert knocked out the guards with their lunch trays before Jerry rushed in. Anna and Robert held him at gun point and asked Jerry to drop his gun. Jerry then warned them that to kill him would be killing Duke. Jerry then showed them a picture of Duke in captivity. Robert ignored Jerry's threat and shot him in the leg. He was ready to kill him when Jerry told Robert that they'd never find Robin if he did. Anna then promised to shoot Jerry if he didn't tell her where Robin was. He replied that he would take them to Robin, but he needed to be under their full protection first.

At GH, Brad realized he was supposed to be doing something important at the lab when he returned with Felix from wedding dress hunting. He asked Felix to dinner and was shocked when Felix agreed. Patrick saw the exchange and warned Felix after, not to trust Brad. Felix said that he respected Patrick's feelings but thought Brad probably was having a hard time accepting a child that didn’t look a thing like him and told Patrick that he was giving Brad a chance. Patrick replied that he didn’t have time to hold a grudge now that he had Sabrina. Felix then said that he couldn’t wait for them to get married but wanted to know if Patrick loved Sabrina with his whole heart. Patrick confessed that Robin always came first but now that she was gone, Sabrina came first.

Outside the lab, Sabrina was “so over” anything Carlos had to say about Patrick. He then asked, "What if I tell you his wife is still alive?" Sabrina shook her head in disbelief and asked where he saw her. He pointed into the lab. Sabrina thought he must have been mistaken but Carlos said she was claiming to be Epiphany and knew it was Robin because he remembered seeing her photo at Patrick's. Then, Brad interrupted and refused to tell them anything about who was working in the lab. He peeked in the window and wondered aloud, "Where the hell did she go?" Sabrina asked, "Who?" Brad tried to leave but Carlos stopped to ask him if he was looking for Robin. Brad realized Nikolas was up to something with the woman he brought to the lab earlier but told them he was looking for Ellie. Once they were alone, Carlos asked Sabrina if Ellie looked like the woman in Patrick's family portrait. Sabrina said that she didn’t and thought it was crazy. He then warned her that all of her wedding preparations would be for naught. Later, Felix went to the lab and invited Brad to be his date for the wedding. He accepted. Meanwhile, Carlos saw Patrick embracing Sabrina as he left.

At Wyndemere, Robin told Britt and Nikolas that Jerry's cure would be synthesized within 48 hours. Suddenly, Luke announced his arrival and Robin hid. Luke filled Britt and Nikolas in on Faison and Obrecht's activities. Nikolas told him that he wasn't interested in going to Cassadine Island but Luke wouldn't let that stop him and told Nikolas that he'd go to “Wacko Island” on his own. Suddenly, Robin came out of hiding and said, "Luke, no!" He was shocked to see her alive and was surprised to learn that she was the doctor who saved him. He wanted her parents to know she was alive and that he must help them. Robin explained to Luke that he was already helping them because she was working on another dose of the cure from his blood. Luke wanted to save Sean instead and to let Jerry die. Robin said they couldn’t do that or Jerry would kill her parents.

At the courthouse, everyone speculated why the judge called them back so soon. Ellie rushed in and sat behind Spinelli. Lulu pulled her hand away when Dante tried to hold it. Maxie worried when the judge recognized that Lulu and Dante had been raising Connie as their own but soon Lulu was crushed. The judge ruled that baby Connie wasn’t Lulu's child and that perjury was a serious offense. Lulu screamed that she was sorry that she lied and begged him not to take Connie away, but the judge's decision had been made and he threw down the gavel as Lulu ran out of the court room alone. Dante thanked Alexis, and then ran out before the judge finished. Maxie then asked the judge when she would get baby Connie but the judge said that he wasn't awarding her custody either. While Diane calmed Maxie, the judge awarded baby Connie to Spinelli. Maxie asked Spinelli to do something so he stood up and asked if Maxie could baby Connie. The judge replied that he wouldn't allow Maxie visitation for six months and requested that Maxie think about the damage she had done. Maxie was stunned and distraught.

Olivia startled Tracy when she brought baby Connie back to Luke's room at the Metro Court. She was about to call the police but Tracy promised her that no one would take Connie from Lulu and Dante. Olivia told Tracy that she knew that the judge would make that decision soon. Olivia then thanked Tracy for the roses for her cousin Connie's funeral. Tracy told Olivia that she felt responsible for Connie's death but Olivia reminded her that she wasn't the one who pulled the trigger. They both couldn’t wait for Dante and Lulu and decided to head to the courthouse, but Lulu was at the door when Tracy opened it. She lied about winning custody of baby Connie when they asked. Olivia said that she knew the judge wouldn't take the baby away from her and Dante but Tracy looked at Lulu suspiciously. She then told Lulu there was no rush as Lulu grabbed baby Connie's things and tried to leave. Then, Dante burst in and Olivia rushed over to congratulate him. Lulu wanted to leave but Dante announced they had lost the baby. He told Lulu that he was sorry but couldn’t let her take baby Connie. Tracy told her to listen to Dante. Lulu replied that she couldn’t accept losing baby Connie.. Dante replied, "We already lost."

At Maxie's, Spinelli was preparing to vacate the apartment even though Maxie was their baby's mother. Diane showed up to remind him that Maxie wasn’t allowed within 20 feet of Connie or he'd lose custody. Maxie nodded in agreement. Diane then gave Spinelli his bill and waived Maxie's fee. Before Spinelli left, Maxie asked him to take care of baby Connie. Later, when Mac and Felicia arrived, Maxie yelled that she didn’t want to see anyone., but they comforted her anyway.

At GH, Elizabeth put the paper with the headline that read "Did AJ Kill Connie?" down. and that the article said it was an open and shut case. Ellie then arrived and told Elizabeth that Maxie was found to be unfit. Elizabeth told Ellie that she didn’t intend to ruin things by testifying about what Maxie did to Lucky but that she had to tell the truth and added that she hated courtrooms. Ellie wondered if Elizabeth would be at AJ's trial. Later, Spinelli arrived worried about Maxie. He then received a text that it was time and Ellie agreed to go with him to get baby Connie.

Dante asked Lulu if she was okay as she carried baby Connie around the apartment making plans to take her to the park. Then, Olivia and Sonny arrived to say their goodbyes. They told baby Connie that they wouldn't have gotten through losing her namesake if it weren’t for her. Lulu couldn’t believe Maxie would be raising her. Then, Olivia announced that she wouldn’t and that the judge awarded full custody to Spinelli. Olivia and Sonny left and Lulu pined over their hollow victory and blamed Dante for losing baby Connie. Lulu then brought up that Dante lied about Sonny shooting him, so why couldn't he lie to save his wife or daughter? Dante replied that he couldn't because Connie wasn’t their daughter, that she didn't belong and they had to face this. Dante then confesses his love for Lulu as they bonded with baby Connie until Spinelli arrived. They said their goodbyes and handed baby Connie to Spinelli. Afterward, Lulu collapsed in Dante's arms at the door.

Felix was discussing Patrick and Sabrina's wedding with Carly at The Metro Court when she blurted out, "I slept with Franco." She asked him not to judge but how could he not? Felix didn’t think that Franco not being a Quartermaine gave him an excuse for sleeping with Diane. Carly told Felix that Franco wasn't sleeping with Diane but Felix still thought she should run the other way if Heather was his mother. Nearby, Heather peeked around the corner as Carly told Felix that Franco had changed. She then promised not to judge his decisions with Brad if he didn’t judge hers. Felix reminded Carly that he always had her back, but added “don't say I didn't tell you so.”

Upstairs, Franco called the nut house to verify that Heather was locked up. He grabbed a vase when there was a knock at the door and swung it in the air when he opened it. Scott stopped him, and saw Franco thought it was his mother. Franco then showed Scott the note Heather sent, threatening Carly, and asked what the new D.A. intended to do about it. Scott told him it was a bad time because Lazzaro was mobilizing a recount because of Heather's declaration that Franco was their son. Scott added that he didn't want to get involved with the situation while he was reestablishing his reputation in Port Charles. Scott then said that he didn't know Franco was his son, but would like him to keep his distance. Franco showed him the door. Later, Heather showed up. Franco wanted her to leave Carly alone or he told her he'd kill her. Heather didn’t think he'd kill her but he threw her up against the wall and said, "Watch me." He added that everyone thinks he's changed but he still has it in him. Then, the nut house employees arrived and as they took her away, Heather joked that they we’re the same men who helped her escape.

Kiki stopped Michael at the courthouse to pick up a heads-up penny for him. Monica joined them as AJ was brought out in shackles. AJ said he was grateful for the support but one person was missing…Elizabeth. Outside the courtroom, Sonny confronted Scott with Olivia on his arm. He told him that believed he was in Julian's pocket and didn’t want him to lose AJ's trial. Scott warned Sonny against threatening him. Diane pointed out that Scott had a lot to lose when she showed up. They followed Elizabeth in who didn’t have a chance to talk to AJ. Opening arguments began with Scott certain that the jury would find AJ to be a cold-blooded killer. Diane claimed there was a miscarriage of justice and the real murderer was still out there. Sonny was first on the stand. He recounted the night AJ choked and threatened Connie before explaining how he found her the night she died. He confirmed that he found “AJ” drawn in Connie's blood. On cross examination, Diane suggested Sonny had motive to write “AJ” himself but Sonny denied it. Scott then called Elizabeth next, who didn't see AJ strangling Connie at Sonny's but did hear him threaten her there and later, when he told her "if he had a gun he'd kill her." Olivia yelled at Elizabeth for not saying anything and AJ hung his head down as Elizabeth left. Olivia was called next to the stand to authenticate security footage from The Metro Court of the night Connie was murdered.

At the Metro Court, Felix wondered how Sabrina would make it up to him for being late. She promised him a massage at Deception Spa when it opened. He told her that he was worried this wedding would never happen and she worried it wasn’t for a lack of Carlos trying to ruin it. Sabrina then told Felix how Carlos told her that Robin was alive. Felix considered it could be Robin's ghost haunting the lab where she died but Sabrina was certain Carlos was just trying to stop the wedding. Before they checked out the restaurant, Sabrina asked Felix to be her “person of honor” and she said that she couldn't get married without her best friend. Sabrina looked crushed when he said no before saying, "I'm joking."

At GH, Patrick checked to see if Elizabeth was okay and asked how court went. She told him that she hated testifying against AJ and feared she might have sent him away for the rest of his life even though she thought AJ was just blowing off steam. Patrick said she couldn't defend him and the jury had to do their job. She then said she regretted that he’ll end up alone and whatever happened between them was over. She then said she was glad Patrick found Sabrina and then Patrick asked Elizabeth to be his best man. She couldn't say no after he thanked her for always being there for him provided he call her his best person. She then promised him a bachelor party. Later, Felix tried to make a date with Elizabeth to beatify her before the wedding but said she was leaving for Patrick's pub crawl.

Back at The Metro Court, Patrick and Sabrina were happy with the venue. He was surprised she was being superstitious and wasn’t going home with him. She told him that she wasn’t taking any chances, even after all his kisses.

Ava found Carlos looking troubled at the pier. He told her that he was upset over Sabrina getting married tomorrow to a married man. Ava thought Robin was dead but Carlos told her that she was very much alive, that he saw her and that she lied about who she was. Carlos didn’t have proof so Ava thought it was possible that his mind was playing tricks. He admitted that Sabrina didn't believe him either and he hardly believed it himself. Ava advised Carlos to go to Patrick. Carlos said he thought about that and couldn't do it because Patrick wouldn't believe him anyway and Sabrina had made her choice and he had to accept it. Ava told Carlos that she knew what it was like to love someone who didn’t love you anymore. She refused to talk about who spurned her and offered to go to Patrick for Carlos. He thanked her but knew Patrick wouldn’t believe it until he saw Robin himself. Once she was alone, Ava burned Metro Court security videos in a trash can.

At Wyndemere, Robin stared at Sabrina and Patrick's wedding invitation. Nikolas joked about his getting lost in the mail and asked whose invite this was. Robin believed it was Ellie's; Sabrina left it while she was in the lab talking to Patrick. Nikolas said he was glad Robin didn't get caught and was sorry she had to listen to the couple's intimate moment. Robin admitted that Carlos saw her instead but he had no idea who she was. Nikolas was concerned but Robin couldn’t make him “unsee” her. She was more worried that Patrick is in love with another woman. Nikolas reminds her she's almost there but Robin questions if Patrick's feelings for Sabrina would disappear when she returned. Nikolas said he knew that Patrick and Emma would always need her but Robin said, "They have Sabrina, they don't need me." Nikolas didn’t want her to go down this road. In 24 hours she'd have the cure, save her parents, and then she could tell Patrick she was alive.

At trial, Diane objected to allowing security footage from The Metro Court to be entered into evidence because the defense was never given a copy. Sonny yelled that the proof should be allowed. The judge shut him down only to have Scott agree that the jury should see that AJ was a cold-blooded murderer. The judge allowed the court to see the video without the jury. Kiki asked Michael if he was sure he wanted to stay. He told her that he had to – for both of his fathers. Olivia suggested that she and Sonny leave, but he wouldn't. Diane warned AJ to control his looks when the jury returned. Scott started the video and AJ was seen falling over drunk, making his way to the elevator. Diane's objections were overruled and the video continued to show AJ pull a gun out of his pocket on the way to Crimson. AJ thought he really did it and said, "I killed Connie." Diane didn’t have a problem with the footage as long as they saw the rest. Scott then said they didn’t have more footage, it was destroyed. The judge then ruled that the footage wouldn’t be allowed but AJ still thought he killed Connie. Diane was certain that no one would know what really happened until the remaining footage was found.

At The Metro Court, Luke advised Dante how to handle Lulu on the phone when Robert arrived and wanted Luke to tell him how much he'd missed him. Luke wondered why Robert was on his doorstep thinking he had been kidnapped by Jerry, when Anna showed up with Jerry in tow. Luke was jealous that Robert got to shoot Jerry. Luke then bragged to Jerry that he was polonium free. Jerry replied that he was waiting on his cure from his doctor. Robert and Anna then explained he meant Robin. Luke knew and told Anna that he saw her. Anna then told Luke that Faison had Duke and Jerry gave them one hour to get the cure or he was dead. Robert was up for the challenge and got ready with Anna. They wanted Luke to watch Jerry but he said that he had unfinished business with Faison and handcuffed Jerry to the bed so he could join them.

Nikolas invited Britt into his bedroom when she knocked. She told him that she worried about Obrecht. Nikolas thought she could be anywhere in Wyndemere but Britt thought Faison was acting funnier than usual and Obrecht hadn't slept in her bed. Something must have happened…but she didn’t know why she cared. Nikolas told her that he understood because he had a complicated relationship with his uncle, and even on Obrecht's worse day Nikolas thought she'd never be as bad as his father. Britt joked that they were a sorry lot but Nikolas was glad they had each other. Downstairs, Faison asked Robin why she was sad as Robin looked at him with tears in her eyes. She wanted him to leave her alone but he advised her to change her tone or he'd call Jerry. Robin said that she believed that Jerry was the one in control, not Faison. Faison then got angry and pulled out a gun. Nikolas then came in armed with Britt and threatened to shoot Faison. Britt then asked him what happened to Obrecht. Faison thought Britt should be more concerned about the cure. Robin agreed, but Faison only allowed Britt to go to the lab. Nikolas promised to look for Obrecht. Britt was thankful and kissed him goodbye before he headed through a wall. Once they were alone, Robin told Faison she wasn’t afraid of him, that she pitied him and wondered what he'd do when this was over and he had no power and no Anna. Faison warned her to be careful and shoved her out of the room at gunpoint when he'd heard enough.

In the catacombs, Duke argued with Obrecht over her setting Faison free. She blamed Luke for the mess they were in. Duke thought she was mad but Obrecht shared the story of Luke's search for his cure. He found it and she knew the scientist who created it and hinted that Duke did too. Duke was more interested in getting loose to get back to Anna. He thought he could get her loose but she wasn’t certain she could reciprocate. Suddenly, Nikolas saw Duke and started to untie Obrecht. It was too late when she yelled, "Nikolas." Faison knocked him out. Obrecht cried to Faison that this was a mistake but she had already proven where her loyalties lied. Faison dragged Nikolas away as Obrecht broke free and picked up Nikolas' gun. Duke asked her to untie him, but she said that she couldn't and pointed the gun at him.

Back upstairs, Luke, Anna, and Robert stormed the living room. They wondered where everyone was and split up. Anna offered to go down the rabbit hole and headed into the catacombs. Robert burst through a locked door and found Robin. Luke was calling for Faison to come out into the living. Suddenly he was there pointing a gun at Luke. Back in the catacombs, Obrecht was sorry it had to be this way as she prepared to shoot Duke, but from behind, Anna yelled, "Drop it!"

Sabrina was on the phone with Patrick at her apartment. She told him that she couldn’t wait to become Mrs. Patrick Drake and hoped he wasn’t calling to stand her up. He confessed, "Nothing was going to stop me from marrying you today." Felix hustled in with Sabrina's dress and wanted her to get off the phone. He surprised her with her new dress. She wasn’t thrilled. It wasn’t her mother's dress which she thought would make everything right after all she and Patrick had been through. Felix promised everything was going to go perfect and that love was the main event.

Elizabeth arrived at Patrick's wearing sunglasses to cure her bachelor party hangover. She was impressed that Patrick fared better. After Emma arrived with Mac, Elizabeth received a call from Felix. After she left with Emma, Patrick hoped Anna got back from wherever she ran off to. He thanked Mac for being supportive. They remembered the time they didn't get along and Mac told him that just because Patrick was starting a new family didn’t mean he was leaving Mac's. After Mac left, Patrick was surprised by someone at the door.

Elizabeth brought Emma to Sabrina's. Felix was worried about Sabrina not liking the dress. Elizabeth said her friend would try to help. Sabrina overheard and asked what they were concerned about. They claimed nothing and Elizabeth looked at the dress. She loved it and thought Patrick would too. Sabrina had to get the door and Felix thought it was someone he and Elizabeth were expecting. Sabrina was surprised by who she saw.
