'General Hospital' Weekly Recap: July 20-24

At the Quartermaines, Tracy was still angry about Luke's lies. Dillon defended him and how hard it was for Luke to keep the truth from her. Then, Paul came in with pancakes. Tracy was impressed that he had the skill to make them. Dillon found all of this beyond weird. Then, Paul explained that he was there to make amends with his son, not get back together with Tracy. Dillon defended Luke again and accused Tracy of being childish. Later, Paul asked Dillon out to lunch, but Dillon said it would have to wait and advised him to stay out of Tracy's relationship with Luke.

Dante called Lulu and they arranged to have dinner later. Lulu then greeted her father at The Haunted Star. He explained that he caught Tracy in bed with Paul. She then filled him in on everything that happened with Dante. She wanted to put the kiss between Dante and Valerie behind her but it was hard. She then added that it was time for her to probe Valerie about everything that really went down. After she left, Tracy came in.

At the PCPD, Dante got off the phone when he bumped into Valerie. They then headed into the interrogation room and rehashed putting what happened behind them. He then warned her that Lulu might come after her and hoped that Valerie would forgive him for this mess. She assured him that everything would be fine. Once he left, she told herself to get over this. Then, when she turned around, she saw Lulu had arrived.

Jake/Jason paid Carly a visit at Sonny’s house. He then told her all about little Jake being alive. She was shocked. "It's so unfair that Jason isn't here," she replied. Eventually, she realized that Josslyn didn't get a kidney from the little boy and freaked out. Jake/Jason then reassured her about what a good mom she was. They then decided to go to GH for some answers.

Elizabeth brought little Jake to GH to meet Patrick for his check-up. Patrick was shocked to see him. When little Jake stepped away, Elizabeth vaguely explained his reappearance. Patrick then said that he knew the feeling of the dead coming back. He then added that he hated himself for letting Elizabeth down and that he was sorry for the loss she went through. She then requested that Patrick give little Jake a check-up. They then all headed down the hall to an exam room. After Patrick looked him over, he and Elizabeth stepped into the hall. He told her that little Jake was healthy. Patrick then reminded Elizabeth that she needed to tell Sam about all of this and wondered how she felt about Jason's widow being involved in little Jake’s life. Elizabeth replied that she didn’t have a problem with that, but that she needed a little time. Then, she and little Jake left. Jake/Jason and Carly arrived moments later to get answers about the mystery kidney.

Laura dropped by Wyndemere and she gushed about Spencer. Nikolas then told her about Lucky leaving. She wishes he would have stayed around to raise his sons. Nikolas then replied that he was sure that his brother believed that little Jake was in good hands. Nikolas then said that he was glad that the Luke and Laura reunion was all a ruse. Then, he asked Laura if she had someone special in her life. She replied that she was still looking. Laura wondered if moving into Wyndemere would cramp his style. Nikolas insisted that she stay as long as she wanted. Then, Elizabeth and little Jake arrived. When Laura took him away for cookies, Nikolas informed Elizabeth that Lucky was gone. She wasn’t surprised. As he explained that Lucky knew that Jake/Jason was really Jason, Laura overheard them from the doorway.

Maxie returned to her apartment and found that Nathan had decorated the place to welcome her home from Portland. She told him that after her trip she just wanted a shower, so he scooped her up and took her there to make love. Afterwards, Maxie grilled Nathan about what had happened with Lulu and Dante, but he didn’t know much. The two then headed to the bedroom to make love again.

Lulu and Valerie argued about what happened between Valerie and Dante at the PCPD. Lulu told her cousin that Dante had told her everything, but that she wanted to hear it from Valerie. Valerie told her that Dante was furious when he found out that she (Lulu) was in Canada with Dillon and she tried to calm him down, which was when the kiss happened. Lulu then asked if Valerie kissed him back. Valerie said that the kiss stopped as soon as it started and that she left right after. Valerie then apologized for the kiss and said that she never intended for it to happen. She then swore that she wasn’t into Dante nor was she a threat to Lulu’s marriage. Valerie then asked Lulu if they could get past this.

Meanwhile in Jordan’s office, Jordan ordered Dante to pick up Sonny and bring him in. Dante warned her that she wouldn’t accomplish anything by ruffling his feathers and suggested that she go through the evidence she had to build a case against him. Jordan then switched the subject to what had happened between him and Valerie. Dante assured her they had talked and that Valerie was okay, but Jordan wasn’t so sure. She then warned Dante about fraternizing with co-workers and that if anything else happened that there would be consequences. Later, Lulu met up with Dante and told him that she and Valerie had worked through what happened and that they were all moving forward.

At Sonny’s house, Sonny told TJ that he didn’t have to worry about his safety there just as Julian arrived to see Sonny. TJ then left them to talk. Once TJ was gone, Julian swore to Sonny that he didn’t make a move on his shipment. Sonny didn’t believe him and thought Julian was protesting too much. Julian then assured him that he was out of the mob and that the death of his and Olivia’s child was what turned him around. Sonny then asked if it wasn’t Julian then who hijacked his shipment, who did? Julian replied that there was no shortage of people who would want to take his (Julian’s) place. Sonny then warned Julian that he better not be lying about this. After Julian left, Sonny worked to keep his next shipment safe.

At The Metro Court, Sam questioned Alexis about the hit on Sonny’s organization and Julian’s involvement. Alexis believed that Julian had cleaned up his act, so Sam agreed to try and have faith in her father. Julian later joined them as they were discussing Nikolas and how they all believed in him, yet he was lying to everyone.

Luke and Tracy met on The Haunted Star. He apologized to her for not telling her the truth and she forgave him. Luke still had the engagement ring and would like to get back to where they were and asked her to marry him. Tracy replied that she forgave him, but she couldn’t marry him. She explained that this past year had been hell for her what with him and ELQ and when Paul showed up she found herself laughing and having fun for a change. Tracy then added that she needed to just be herself for a while and that he had to recover from all that he went through. She then said that she felt that he only wanted to marry her so he could feel like the old Luke, but that he still needed to make peace with his history. He thought that if he did what she asked then there could be hope for them, but she told him that they couldn’t have a life together and that she felt that he needed to find his way without her. Luke then realized that she was right. Then, Tracy and Luke hugged and professed to love one another forever.

At The Metro Court, Tracy explained everything to Sabrina about Luke's lies in order to rescue his sons and discovering little Jake was alive. She then added that she knew that Luke would never stopped loving her, but that she has ended things with him because he still needed to rid himself of his past demons. Tracy then said that she didn’t know what she should do next with her life. Sabrina encouraged her to find herself.

Michael arrived on The Haunted Star to talk business with Luke. Luke thought he was here to defend Tracy’s honor, so he explained everything to Michael about the sham with Laura. Michael was stunned to learn that little Jake was alive, but explained that he was here to discuss tearing down the old Spencer home. Luke then told Michael that he was done with that house so tear it down. Michael thanked him and then he headed out. Once he was gone, Luke walked over to the safe, opened it and reached inside for something.

At Wyndemere, Laura interrupted Nikolas and Elizabeth’s conversation about Jake/Jason and started asking questions about why he was so valuable to Helena. She said that she thought he must have been someone important. Elizabeth replied she had to get little Jake back to GH for some test results, so she and little Jake rushed out. Once they were gone, Laura confronted Nikolas and told him that she knew that Jake/Jason was Jason. Laura then asked how her Nikolas could keep such a secret and to give her a reason or she would tell Jake/Jason who he was. Nikolas explained that by time he learned the truth that Elizabeth and Jake/Jason had fallen in love. Laura reminded him that Elizabeth wasn’t Jason’s family. Nikolas then pointed out that Jason being Jake was better for everyone and that Jason had brought nothing but pain and misery to his family. He also explained if Jake/Jason learned who he really was then he (Nikolas) would lose ELQ and Spencer’s future was at stake here. Laura was disgusted that this was about money when it should be about keeping parents and children from one another. Nikolas then reminded her that she had lied about him to protect her own family and that was all he was doing. Laura then wished she never overheard the truth.

At GH, Lucas had no answers for Carly about Josslyn’s real kidney donor, but felt that Brad may be of help. He then noticed the ring on Carly’s finger and she told him the news. He was happy for her and as they talked about wedding plans, Lucas opened up about his fear that Brad was holding something back from him. Carly thought it was just his cold feet talking. Then, Carly had to go and left.

In the hallway, Jake/Jason ran into Sam, who assumed he was here because of Hayden. He had no idea what she was talking about, so she filled him in on how Hayden’s condition seemed to be improving, but remaining unchanged. Jake/Jason then explained that he was there with Carly about Josslyn’s kidney. He then told her that it turned out little Jake was never dead. Just then, Elizabeth walked in with her son. Sam introduced herself to little Jake, who said hi and then ran straight to show Jake/Jason a toy he had just got. Sam wanted little Jake to meet Danny since she didn’t want them to miss anymore time together. Suddenly, Carly arrived and saw little Jake. She introduced herself with tears in her eyes and little Jake wondered why everyone cried when they saw him. She told him that they were just happy he was home. Then, Elizabeth, Jake/Jason and little Jake then left to go find out the boy’s blood-work results.

Felix and Brad had a run-in in the GH locker room. Felix saw something was bothering Brad, so Brad revealed his secret, which the viewers didn’t hear. Felix was stunned and agreed that Brad was in a huge mess. He then suggested that Brad tell Lucas the truth about this. Brad replied that he couldn’t, so he felt the only thing he could do was to call off the wedding. Later, Brad went to see Lucas and asked that they talk. Lucas thought he wanted to finally talk about the wedding plans, but Brad shocked him and told him that he couldn’t marry him.

Luke headed to the old Spencer house. He then pulled out a gun and said, "When this house goes, so do I."

Michael went to The Metro Court and met with Sabrina. He told her that he had Luke’s blessing to tear the house down.

Luke returned to the old Spencer house and pulled out a gun, which he then points at his chest. Suddenly, his father’s ghost appeared and told him to get it over with and join him in hell. Then, the ghost of Luke’s sister, Patricia, ran down the steps and told Luke not to do it since their father held no power over them anymore. Yet, Luke’s father, Tim warned Luke that he would never be rid of him and then he stumbled out the front door. Patricia’s ghost then told Luke that their father was wrong and if he killed himself then everything she did for him was in vain. Luke then reminded her that he killed their mother and that he couldn’t live with that. Then, Luke’s mother’s ghost arrived and Patricia’s ghost left them to talk alone. His mother told Luke that his accepting the truth of what happened to her should be the beginning of his life, not the end. She then pushed him to stand up and figure out who he was and who he wanted to be without all those demons inside. Luke then put the gun down and hugged his mother, who told him she was so proud of him.

At The Metro Court, Bobbie met with Valerie to discuss Lucas’ wedding since she felt that he and Brad were dragging their feet. Bobbie saw something was troubling Valerie and asked about it. Valerie then brought Bobbie up to date on what had happened to Lucky, Lulu running off to help and what went on between her and Dante in regards to the kiss. Bobbie let Valerie know that if she ever needed someone to talk to or to rely on, that she was there for her. Bobbie then saw a text from Michael about the old Spencer house being torn down today.

Maxie and Lulu talked on The Haunted Star about Lulu and Dante’s issues. After being filled in, Maxie said that she knew she was right about Valerie all along, but Lulu says it was Dante who initiated the kiss. Maxie still refused to believe Valerie is blameless, but Lulu felt she was partly to blame for all of this with her lies. Maxie felt she should have stopped things and remembered finding Dante and Valerie together on the fourth. Lulu then recalled that Valerie had left out the part of the story that Maxie and Nathan dropped by that night. However, Lulu wanted to just let it go and she asked Maxie to drop it so that things could get back to how they were.

Nathan and Dante worked out at the gym. Dante confessed to Nathan that he had jumped to all the wrong conclusions in regards to Lulu and screwed up with Valerie. He then swore Nathan to secrecy and admitted to sleeping with Valerie. Dante then said that he felt like his father, who cheated and then rationalized it away. Nathan thought perhaps it would help to come clean with Lulu, but Dante said that he couldn’t ruin Lulu and Rocco’s life that way. Nathan then promised to keep his secret. He then said that believed had Lulu been truthful then none of this would have happened. Later, Maxie arrived at the gym and told Nathan everything she had learned from Lulu. Nathan admitted that Dante, who had left, told him the same.

At GH, Brad told Lucas that he couldn’t marry him. He swore that he loved him, so Lucas asked why he didn’t want to get married. Brad said that he wanted to, but he that couldn’t. Lucas asked if this was about his parents. Brad said not directly and then he confessed that he was already married. Lucas was stunned and demanded that Brad tell him everything he had been keeping from him. Before Brad could tell him anything, Lucas was called to the ER because emergency victims were being brought in.

Michael and Sabrina hung out at the docks near the Quartermaines. Michael pretended to threaten to throw Sabrina in, but stopped, only to have her push him in. He then got out and said it was her turn, so she pleaded that she would do anything to avoid getting wet. Then, Michael kissed her and the two made love in the dock house. They then admitted to one another they were falling for each other.

Back on The Haunted Star, Dante surprised Lulu with roses. He then told her that he was committed to getting their marriage back on track and that he wouldn’t let anyone come between them again.

Bobbie arrived at the old Spencer house and found Luke alone. Luke then told her that he had made a decision about the rest of his life.
Bobbie found Luke at the old Spencer house. She noticed there was a gun on the table. He explained that was just a bad idea and that he actually decided to leave Port Charles. She didn’t think the timing was right since his family needed him. Then, he explained that he and Tracy weren’t going to reconcile and that she had pointed out that there were a lot of things that he still needed to learn about himself. He then told Bobbie that the ghosts of his past had been speaking to him, that he wasn’t trapped in the past anymore, so now he needed to find his future. Bobbie wished he would do that there and sobbed. Luke then thanked her for the good she had brought into his life and that they would always have each other's backs. After they embraced, they agreed not to say goodbye, just arrivederci. Once she left, Luke then turned to his younger self and told him that he was sorry for squandering his potential. "Who knows what good we could still do?" young Luke asked. He then put down his baseball bat and they left together.

Maxie and Nathan arrived at their table at The Metro Court only to be interrupted by Madeline. She demanded an introduction to Maxie and then invited herself to join them for dinner. Madeline then went on about seeing him on the red carpet with Ellie and then teased about Maxie about taking a tumble at the ball. She then asked Maxie to leave so she and Nathan could discuss Nina. Nathan insisted that she stay. Madeline then told Nathan that she suspected that Nina was on the verge of another breakdown and suggested that it could be the result of Nina's guilty conscience. Nathan found that hard to believe. He then went off to see Nina, leaving Madeline to chat with Maxie about her with Nathan.

Meanwhile, Laura joined Scott at the bar. She filled him in on her recent adventures with Luke. They then reminisced about the past until she explained that she had recently overheard something that she shouldn't have. He offered to listen to whatever was weighing on her and promised never to reveal it to anyone else. Before she could say anything, Bobbie arrived and informed Laura that Luke was about to leave town.

Nina was disturbed when she walked into her hotel suite and found a crib inside. When she then heard a baby crying, she looked inside and found a baby doll. She then dropped it and ran out. Then, Ric came in and turned off the baby crying recording. He then had the crib wheeled out and then called for Nina. She was startled to see that the crib was gone and told him what happened. "I think you may have imagined it," he said before turning on the baby recording again. Panicking, Nina started searching the room for the doll. Ric insisted that she wouldn't find anything. She then became convinced that she must have kidnapped baby Avery again. "Don't worry about it," Ric replied, offering to protect her. Moments later, Nathan arrived and noticed the baby blanket.

Morgan was at the gym working out, all the while distracted by thoughts of Ava/Denise. Then, Kiki interrupted his thoughts and wondered why he was so worked up. He changed the subject by asking if they could take a rain-check on their plans for the night. She then told him that she was leaving tomorrow for a bachelorette party and was planning to see Ava/Denise before she left.

Ava/Denise was in Julian’s penthouse thinking of her romp with Morgan when Franco showed up. He told her that he couldn't get her the recording and that he wanted to talk about Morgan. Franco then said that he knew that she was in bed with her “boy toy” the last time he dropped by. She admitted it but, added that Morgan didn't know who she really was. He then lectured her for sleeping with her daughter's boyfriend. Ava/Denise replied that she didn't plan this, but couldn't shake her renewed attraction to Morgan. She then wept over how much she hated lying to Kiki. He offered to tell Kiki the truth. Then, Kiki arrived at the door.
