Mayor Collins, or more familiarly referred to as Laura Spencer (Genie Francis), takes on a complicated role. As if being Mayor of Port Charles doesn’t already come with its complexities, this dedicated mother and grandmother tacks more onto her plate.

Apparently, the dust doesn’t seem to want to settle for Laura Spencer Collins. Action and adventure catch up with Laura these days while she doesn’t have a moment to catch a break. Sadly, Laura’s son Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss), and her grandson, Spencer (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) have her running in circles yet again. According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Laura pays a visit to Esme’s mom, Heather Webber (Alley Mills). Little does Laura know, she isn’t Heather’s first visitor on a while.

General Hospital Spoilers: Valentin Makes Nina An Offer To Give Her The Upper Hand

So what will it be, folks? Will Nina and Carly quit while they’re still in one piece, or will it cost a lot more to “settle the score”?

At this point I can’t even remotely fathom how anyone is on Nina’s side. Don’t get me wrong because I think Nina is a crazy cool character, and Cynthia Watros is exceptionally talented. However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t see her problematic nature, faults, and flaws. In fact, Cynthia’s acting abilities is what makes me compare her to all the narcissists in my life. Simply put, Cynthia Watros plays it so well. How can anyone possibly hate on that? Now her character in the other hand, she’s fair game.

GH recaps recall Nina’s fierce reaction to Carly and Drew’s Crimson stunt. What’s the point of asking Carly if they’re finally even if she doesn’t plan on leaving well enough alone? It’s apparent that Nina has zero plans to leave things as they are with Carly Corinthos Spencer (Laura Wright). Obviously, Nina doesn’t care about playing fair when all she sees is red and Carly’s smirk every time she closes her eyes. If I didn’t know better, it surely looks like Carly and Drew ignite the evil spirits within Nina as they’ve been fighting to emerge. I’d I had to guess, I’d say that this feud is far from over.

According to General Hospital spoilers, Valentin makes Nina an offer. Evidently, the offer is so enticing that Nina contemplates her next move. GH turned give that Valentin’s offer would give Nina the upper hand over Drew and Carly’s son, Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell). Will Nina take on a new role at ELQ?

Drew’s dark path leads Carly to Sonny

Wow! Introducing Drew 2.0. It must be true what they say about serving time in a correctional facility. It definitely does change a person, not that I can speak from personal experience or anything.

Historically, the people of Port Charles have been kidnapped and held hostage on a boat, trapped in a hotel fire, chained to a bed in a panic room, poisoned water supply, and much more. And to think some of those events took place after 30-some years of daytime drama. But nothing rattles a PC soul like doing time in Pentonville, and it seems like everyone there is a criminal.

For 60 years, many bad deeds have committed by almost everyone in Port Charles. I don’t know if one person in that city has a clean slate. That said, if you haven’t made a member of The Five Families a target, or left a woman to give birth all alone in the woods, or randomly attack a so-called friend with a hook, then do you even live in Port Charles? It seems that you have to have an edge to get anywhere in that city, and that’s what leads us to Drew.

Recently, Drew has been a hot topic along GH fan pages across social media. General Hospital spoilers reveal that Drew is ready for a change. He’s tired of being the pushover, and has asserted himself in situations to overcome that reputation. First, it started with Michael, Ned, and the family business. No red flags were raised because it seemed like a typical Quartermaine business quarrel. Then, the issue with Scout’s school occurred, including his and Sam’s argument, and now his actions toward Carly.

Drew’s Dark Path Leads Carly To Sonny

General Hospital spoilers tease that Cameron Mathison takes Drew down a dark path. According to General Hospital spoilers, the stars align for Sonny and Carly as Drew becomes increasingly problematic. We knew it was only a matter of time before Carly and Drew began to fall apart. According to recent GH rumors, Drew 2.0 puts a strain on his and Carly’s relationship. The more time they spend together, the more Drew wants to control, pushing Carly away.

General Hospital recaps recall four years ago when Sonny went missing. Unforeseen evil tore Sonny and Carly apart, but their bond never wavered. Will fate bring them together again?

General Hospital Spoilers: The PCPD Uses Spencer To Lure Nikolas- Only Father Can Free Him

Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) is desperate to find her son. As far as she’s concerned, she would have been better off on her own with Ace than to have even half-heartedly trusted Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) and the Cassadines.

Although Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) brought it upon herself when she broke into Wyndemere, she blames Laura for the series of events that followed. GH recaps highlight that while Esme was in court, her son was taken right from her. Not only did Ace’s big brother fail to stop his father from kidnapping Ace, but he gave him up willingly. What’s worse is that he still defends his compliance.

According to recent GH rumors, Laura tells Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) the whole story, even the parts that incriminate her son and grandson. As a result, the PCPD uses Spencer (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) to lure Nikolas to Port Charles. Spencer committed a crime. No matter how you slice it, or how he blames Esme for her past, he and his father are the ones who just committed a heinous crime.

Spencer Is Arrested And Held Until Nik Turns Himself In

General Hospital spoilers reveal that the PCPD takes immediate action to begin the investigation. Dante wants to know every detail for the best chance at locating Nikolas (Adam Huss) and baby Ace. Therefore, it’s likely that Dante questions Spencer as well as Mayor Collins. That said, u can bet that Laura tells the truth even though she’s aware of the consequences.

GH spoilers and rumors teaser a shocking twist! Spencer is arrested while Nik still runs free. Although Spencer played his role in the whole thing, the PCPD has bigger fish to fry. In fact, child kidnappings are of the utmost priority. That’s why the PCPD could want to strike a deal. Spencer’s freedom for Nikolas to turn himself in and bring Ace home safely.

The authorities want baby Ace brought home ASAP. That’s why GH rumors claim that the PCPD uses Spencer to lure Nikolas back to Port Charles. That’s when Spencer is arrested and held in a cell until someone is able to reach out to Nikolas. It’s doesn’t stop there because then he’ll need convincing to return with Ace. Will Nikolas set Spencer free if that means giving up Ace and his own freedom?

General Hospital Spoilers: They’ll Have Plenty Of Time To Repair Their Bond- Nikolas and Spencer Sentenced To Pentonville

Nikolas and Spencer sentenced to Pentonville
Nikolas and Spencer sentenced to Pentonville

I’m gonna start off first by saying that I’m so disappointed in Spencer. I reviewed the situation in my head from every angle and I still believe that Spencer is completely in the wrong. Despite Esme’s checkered past and her memories floating to the surface, Spencer crossed the line. In fact, he committed a very serious crime.

Over the years the Cassadine family developed a Reputation🐍 for themselves. They’re known for their erratic behaviors at various degrees. That’s because not all Cassadine family members were created equal. Instead, they all have different levels of and forms of crazy. And over time, some sink deeper into the Cassadine darkness while others are lucky enough to find the light (i.e. Alexis Davis (Natasha)).

General Hospital recaps highlight Spencer Cassadine’s defining moment when he immersed himself into pure Cassadine culture. To be fair, Spencer has never really kept his side of the street all that clean. He has lied, schemed, and even committed crimes. But Spence and his loved ones put that in the past after he served his time. Eventually, things started to look up for Spencer. He started to become more comfortable with watching Esme raise his baby brother Ace (Jay and Joey Clay). Additionally, Spencer and Trina are still madly in love, and they plan to spend Trina’s semester abroad together in France.

Nikolas and Spencer Sentenced To Pentonville

According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, it’s quite possible that Trina and Spencer won’t get the chance to go to Paris together. Spencer lets Trina down yet again when his impulsive decision exhibits his inability to put others needs before his own wants. Let’s face it, Spencer didn’t need to do this. Aiding and abetting a kidnapping isn’t what anyone needs.

Esme Prince is desperate to find Ace

GH spoilers tease that Spencer feels the consequences surrounding all sides. First, he’s without the same little brother that he couldn’t bear to spend a moment without. Next, his grandmother Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) is fraught with the shocking news over Spencer’s actions. Finally, someone has to break the news to Trina. She and Spencer plan to indulge themselves in the wonders and romance of France, but GH rumors hint that this situation changes the course of their plans. Furthermore, GH spoilers tease that Spencer’s actions don’t just derail their France plans, but also his and Trina’s relationship.

GH recaps recall Laura’s reaction and the course of action taken to find Ace. Spencer’s grandmother implicates her own son when she calls the PCPD. She took the first step in finding Ace when she notified Detective Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna). At this post Laura hasn’t named names, but the Mayor of Port Charles is expected to play by the book. That means, if she implicates Nikolas, she’ll most like have to do the same with Spencer. It’s true that Spencer isn’t the one who kidnapped Ace. However, the involvement he has in this is ground for an arrest for aiding and abetting a kidnapping. I know this is poor Charles and all but it sounds to me like these two are headed for Pentonville.

General Hospital News and Spoilers: Adam Huss Studied Tyler Christopher Before Nikolas And Spencer’s Emotional Scenes

In 1996, the late Tyler Christopher originated the role of Nikolas Cassadine. As the first and most authentic Dr. Prince, Tyler set the stage and paved the way for his successors. Today, his depiction of a true Cassadine lives on to inspire others.

Over the years Tyler Christopher became a household name, and the role of Nikolas Cassadine was iconized by the Emmy winning actor. That’s why it’s not surprising that those who’ve played the role after Christopher look upon his work as a guide.

Fast forward some years and a few Nikolas Cassadine recasts later, General Hospital found the perfect fit. GH fans warned up to Marcus Coloma in no time, becoming comfortable with his portrayal of this beloved character.

General Hospital news reports confirm that GH is onto yet another Nikolas. Adam Huss seems to be the permanent fixture after Coloma’s shocking GH exit. Despite the fan backlash, Marcus Coloma has yet to return. However, Huss has made a big impression on fans after the emotional scene with his tv son. Shockingly, Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and his dad Nikolas reunited after dear old dad’s disappearance. The most shocking part of this all is that Nikolas and his son put their issues aside for Ace and for their own relationship. The scenes were natural and raw. Additionally, Nik and Spencer’s emotional scene seem to capture a familiar feel.

Adam Huss studied Tyler Christopher

General Hospital news and spoilers report that Adam Huss revealed his secret. There’s no question that scenes like those take preparation. Evidently, Adam Huss extensively prepared for his first major Nikolas Cassadine scene. Recently, Huss revealed to Soaps In Depth, “I watched a lot of scenes between Tyler Christopher and Nicolas Bechtel. What a beautiful dynamic they had, especially in the scenes around the fire when Spencer got burned and Nikolas was at the hospital.”

From there Huss then filmed the Nikolas and Spencer reunion scenes with Nicholas Alexander Chavez. GH spoilers reveal Adam’s take on Nik and Spencer’s relationship. He continued to Soaps In Depth, “I believe what transpires between them is sincere, and there is a sincere want and need from Nikolas to reconnect with Spencer. Which is why he is ready to face whatever he is going to face when it occurs. I also believe he would be willing to do whatever it takes in that moment to get what he needs. It’s definitely interesting, the direction it goes in.”

Are you ready to see what becomes of Nikolas, Spencer, Ava, Esme, and Ace?

Well, well, well, if it isn’t dear old dad. Once again, Spencer Cassadine’s father mastered his disappearing act. The way Spencer sees it, Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss) chooses himself over his son over and over again.

Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) is stuck between a rock and a hard place. He’s tangled in Esme and Nikolas’s web of deception and he doesn’t want his little brother to suffer. He knows that he must make the best decision for Ace, but when your two choices are Esme or Nikolas, it makes things difficult. How is Spencer supposed to choose between Ace’s parents? One is Spencer’s own father and the other is his semi-reformed, psycho ex-girlfriend.

Spencer Chooses Between Esme and Nikolas

Prior to Esme’s fall from the parapet, there’s no way in Hell that Spencer would have chosen to help his ex fight for her son. Retrospectively, Spencer despised Esme for the things she’d done. All the lies, the crimes, and the people she’s hurt were never going to get past Spencer. Then, his baby brother was born and Spencer saw a different side of Esme. The amnesia allowed the young mother to focus on her son instead of seeking revenge. But now that her memories have returned, Esme herself is torn between her old self and her new self.

General Hospital Spoilers: Esme Slipped Up, Will “Spence” Keep Her Secret?

Will Spencer keep Esme’s secret?

Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) was once in love with Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl). That was a life time ago in teen years, but the young couple can’t escape each other.

Fast forward and Spencer has moved on to Trina, and Esme is a mother. Things look a lot different these days after Spencer learned of all Esme’s betrayals. After Esme and Nikolas slept together Spencer couldn’t look at either of them the same way again. Today, Spencer’s moved on, and he and Trina are happy together.

Will Spencer Keep Esme’s Secret?

General Hospital spoilers and rumors indicated that Esme is in over her head. Since having those flashbacks, Esme can’t shake that old part of herself. In fact, she even justified her last actions to her mom, Heather Webber (Alley Mills). But now Esme pleads with Spencer for help while she says that she’s a changed woman. Is she really though? We know that Esme had flashbacks, that means she lied to Spencer after lying to Laura. But GH recaps recall that Spencer caught on to his ex-girlfriend after she accused him of dodging consequences his entire life.

General Hospital spoilers and rumors hint that “Spence” keeps Esme’s secret for Ace’s sake. She’s become a good mother and believes that Ace is better with his mom than without her.
