Jason and Carly Ruin Drew and Willow’s Celebration
Willow and Drew are celebrating at The Port Charles Grill when Jason and Carly show up. All four exchange dirty looks before Carly and Jason grab a table. They discuss the trial, and Carly fears that if Willow is acquitted, Turner will go after Michael.

Jason is certain Michael didn’t shoot Drew, as he would have told him if he did. He feels the one they should be concerned about is Drew, who will want payback. Carly knows Drew will want the world to think Michael is guilty of shooting him.

Across the restaurant, Drew suggests to Willow that they can go elsewhere, but she refuses. After waxing about his love for her, Willow goes off on Jason hurting him, but as awful as Jason is, Carly’s worse. She used to be so close to Carly, and now she despises her. She recalls Carly not allowing her to see her children after their wedding fell apart, and Michael and Carly both showed her no mercy.

Drew says that soon, Michael will be the one begging for mercy. The congressman gets worked up over how Willow has been treated and decides to confront Jason and Carly, stating it’s their turn to grovel!

At Trina’s, she and Kai discuss all the evidence in the case that points to Willow being the shooter. They also realize that if Willow is exonerated, Michael could be charged, and Willow could get full custody of the kids.

At his place, Sonny tells Laura that he misses Luke too, and as much as they hate what is happening, they are doing the right thing. Sidwell thinks he has the upper hand, and he’ll get cocky and eventually make a mistake. All they have to do is wait.

At the hospital, Brad continues to tell Britt that Jason will only break her heart, and when he does, he will be there for her and won’t say, “I told you so.”

At the Qs’, Jacinda says Michael didn’t read things wrong. Michael doesn’t know what will happen with Willow, but being with her has been the one bright spot in this whole ordeal. He asks her to stay. She cries that she promises to stick around as long as she can, and they kiss.

At The Grill, Drew waltzes over to Jason and Carly and reminds Jason that he won’t hesitate to press charges if Danny gets near Scout. Carly calls him pathetic for keeping siblings apart, but he says she’s keeping Willow from her children, so he’s just following her lead.

Drew gloats that when Willow is found innocent, and Michael is sent to prison, he’ll feel nothing but pleasure when Carly comes begging at his door to see her grandchildren, and he’ll slam the door in her face. Carly throws her drink in his face and tells him to go to hell. Willow watches with a smirk.

Finally, Kai and Trina turn up at Alexis’ office, and Trina says, “We know who shot Drew.”

On the next General Hospital, Willow tells Nina everything she’s done has been for her kids, and Tracy tells someone, “It was you!”
