General Hospital Spoilers: I Think I’ve Seen This Film Before- Nina Takes Olivia’s Man, Goes After The Other Half Of The Metro Court

Nina takes Sonny and Ned?! …Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) is on a roll. She’s been on a lucky streak lately, while taking Ws at every turn. In the wake of Nina’s recent victories, those around her have taken one L after another.

If you’re a little lost on this ongoing saga, General Hospital recaps recall just how Nina and Sonny got started. It’s been over two years since Nina found Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) in Nixon Falls. That was when she decided to keep a brain-injured man who she knows has a wife and family, who was also presumed dead, all to herself. Who even does that?! Moreover, if that wasn’t bad enough, she stole more than Carly’s man. Before becoming Sonny’s fiancé, Nina took Carly Corinthos’s (Laura Wright) half of the Metro Court.

“I think I’ve seen this film before, and I didn’t like the ending.” -TS

According to recent GH spoilers and rumors, history resembles itself now that Ned Ashton (Wally Kurth) thinks he’s someone new. Similarly, Nina is manipulating Eddie Maine as she did Mike back in Nixon Falls. Manipulation is her claim to fame and the tactic used to take advantage of the victim. By using their own words and twisting them for her own benefit, Nina’s manipulative behavior keeps yet another father away from his wife and family. We don’t know about y’all, but this gives major Corinthos family vibes. The damage Nina caused Sonny and his family is irrefutable. And by the looks of things and GH rumors, the Quartermaine’s are next to fall victim to Nina.

GH rumors hint that Nina takes Sonny and Ned! What’s done is done with Sonny. Sadly, Nina got him to fall in love with her. But that is soon to be over. Meanwhile, Nina is all up in her business pattern’s personal life. Once again, Nina benefits by preying on victims. And it just so happens that they are none other than two bestie’s husbands. If history repeats itself, then Nina is going for Olivia’s half of the Metro Court next.

Austin gets Avery’s nanny fired Sonny Ava Mason Austin Pilar Avery Corinthos

Austin handles Pilar! By that we mean that Austin gets Avery’s nanny fired! …Austin Holt (Roger Howarth) knows exactly how ruthless his cousin is. That being said, he knows what it’s going to take to give Mason (Nathanyael Grey) what he wants- Sonny on a silver platter.

General Hospital previews indicate that Pilar (Brenda Barberena) loses control of a situation that gets her fired. Except it wasn’t Pilar who lost control at all. Instead, Austin set his plan to get rid of Avery’s nanny in motion. Operation Get Rid of Pilar is now underway.

According to the latest GH spoilers, Pilar comes running with devastating news. That’s when Ava gets wind that her’s and Sonny Corinthos’s (Maurice Benard) daughter Avery (Grace and Ava Scarola) is missing. However, have no fear because GH rumors hint that this isn’t what we think. Instead, Austin gets Avery’s nanny fired! GH spoilers and rumors tease that Austin set Pilar up to fail so that she’d no longer be an obstacle. Anyone who gets in their way is collateral damage. Odds are that Ava doesn’t have a clue about Austin’s plan at first, causing mass hysteria. As a result, Ava might just fire Pilar herself before Austin then conveniently fills her in.

General Hospital Spoilers: Nina Takes Advantage Of Yet Another Amnesiac, But This Time Things Won’t End In Her Favor

Ned plays Nina at Sonny’s

Ned plays Nina at Sonny’s!?!?! Just when you think there’s no other way out for Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) than the truth, she goes and jumps on the next opportunity to lie. It never fails that she gets herself into and out of her self inflicted dramas with her own lies. Simply put, Nina can’t stand watching others get what would have passed her by. But you know what they say, never say never.

Therefore, she’ll do anything to get what’s caught her eye, especially if she sees someone else giving whoever or whatever a second look. GH recaps remind us of how she stumbled upon a very married Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). She didn’t do what an empathetic and compassionate person would do. Instead, Nina lied, kept him from his wife and family, took advantage of his fragile state of mind, and so much more irreparable suffering. And let’s not forget that she got away with it.

Ned plays Nina at Sonny’s

It’s a setup?! Fast forward to current times and General Hospital fans noticed something oddly familiar. But GH spoilers tease that things are different for Nina this time around. First, she took advantage of Sonny, an amnesiac whose family thought he was dead. Now, she thinks she’s about to do that same thing (yet different) to Ned Ashton (Wally Kurth). So far, Nina believe she Roman to use Ned’s certain type of amnesia for her benefit. Sound familiar? However, General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease the joke is on her.

According to GH spoilers, Sonny opened his home to Eddie Maine as a kind gesture to Olivia (Lisa LoCicero). That means Sonny, Ned/Eddie and Nina will have lots of quality time together. What’s his plan?

Austin works for Tracy Pikeman Mason Sonny

Who is Austin Gatlin working for? Well, we know it isn’t Mason Holt (Narhanyael Gray). When Mason first popped up in Port Charles Mason began making demands. Immediately, it was assumed that Mason called the shots. However, that GH rumors was quickly squashed. This Summer, things are heating up in PC, and Austin and Mason’s boss remains a mystery. Odds are we find out soon! As the story line unfolds, we think we might be into something here… Since he’s a Quartermaine, GH rumors claim Austin works for Tracy.

According to GH recaps, Austin Gatlin Holt is Jimmy Lee Holt’s son. General Hospital history tells us that Jimmy Lee Holt is Edward Quartermaine’s illegitimate son with Charity Gatlin. Additionally, Mason is said to be Austin’s cousin, seemingly from his mother’s (Charity Gatlin) side. Still, she was married to a Quartermaine and bore his child. This lesson on the Quartermaine family tree explains Tracy’s connection to Austin and Mason, supporting the rumor that Austin works for Tracy, Mason too!

It’s A Family Affair! Mason and Austin Work for Tracy

General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that the Pikeman threat is getting real in these Port Charles streets. Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his family work together to protect each and every member, even those who are at odds with each other. Currently, they’ve banned together to help get Carly (Laura Wright) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) out of this insider trading mess. One way or another, they’ll find out who snitched and the situation (and those responsible) will be handled.

Tracy’s involvement in ELQ gives her reason to set this in motion. And her detestation for Sonny Corinthos and his mob operation is why SHE put in a call to get the Feds on Sonny’s tail. GH rumors tease that Tracy knew Sonny’s M.O. Obviously, most people do. He’s do anything for Carly, even go to jail. It was the perfect plan for Tracy to get Sonny out if the way. Why? Because GH spoilers claim that Tracy is Pikeman.

General Hospital Spoilers: Tracy Quartermaine Is Pikeman!?!

Tracy Quartermaine is Pikeman

Tracy Quartermaine is Pikeman?! …The Quartermaine family has always been a ruthless bunch. They treat the family business (ELQ) better than most family members, protecting it at all cost. I’m doing so they lie, cheat, steal, and who knows what else, all in the name of ELQ.

Although familiar with illegal business dealings, unlike Sonny’s organization, ELQ is a legal business. Clearly, Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) isn’t too fond of PC’s most influential mobster. It’s no secret that Tracy doesn’t want Sonny or any of his employees near her family. Unfortunately for Tracy, Sonny’s entanglements are weaved tightly to some Quartermaines. Because of this, General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest Tracy would love nothing more than to see Sonny lose his power. What better way to accomplish her desires than to involve the big dogs. Therefore, GH rumors speculate that Nina isn’t the only one who snitched.

See, GH recaps remind fans that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) had her attorney Martin Gray (Michael E. Knight) send the SEC an anonymous tip. The tip incriminated Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) in insider trading. However, there was no mention about Sonny or The Feds. So then how come the Feds showed up so quickly? According to recent GH spoilers and rumors, Nina and Tracy both have a hand in this, individually. Word out on the stress is that Tracy is the one who got the Feds involved because she IS PIKEMAN! ????

What do you think? Could Tracy be calling the shots?

General Hospital Spoilers: Laura Never Arrives In Chechnya!?!?

Laura never arrived in Chechnya. Austin and Ava stop Laura.

Laura never gets to Chechnya? …Austin Gatlin Holt (Roger Howarth) isn’t the man his colleagues and new friends think he is. The soft-spoken doctor from the small town of Pautuck shows his dark side in a shocking twist. He went from Maxie Jones’ (Kirsten Storms) hero, to Ava Jerome’s (Maura West) partner in crime. Next, he’ll show his true colors. And let’s just say they aren’t very bright.

General Hospital Recaps: Over at the hospital Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) managed to escape Dr. Austin Holt’s unsolicited advice. It was obvious to Laura that Dr. Holt’s behavior was strange, but remains unaware of his role in Nikolas Cassadine’s disappearance. Meanwhile, Ava Jerome (Maura West) poked around Sonny Corinthos’s (Maurice Benard) office for some dirt on Pikeman. But was interrupted by nanny Pilar, and the mission was aborted.

Laura Never Arrives In Chechnya

According to GH spoilers, Austin and Ava’s troubles become the other’s now that they are partners in crime. Pilar became Ava’s problem, and Laura Spencer reminded Austin that she is his and Ava’s. Laura could foil they entire operation involving Mason. Nikolas Cassadine is missing, and little does Laura know that Ava, Austin, Mason, and their mystery boss know where he is. Technically, only Mason and the boss know that answer. And Austin and Ava only know what they’re told. Austin knows better than Ava that Mason doesn’t mess around. There’s no wiggle room when it comes to negotiating a deal with Mason. That’s because Mason isn’t even the one calling the shots.

General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease Ava and Austin become determined to stop Laura Spencer from getting to Chechnya. They can’t risk her interfering while under Mason’s direction. Furthermore, Mason isn’t even the one in charge. Whoever is giving orders wants to be taken very seriously.

General Hospital Spoilers: Nina Was Never Cut Out For This, Sonny Calls Out Nina’s Strange Behavior

Sonny calls out Nina

Sonny calls out Nina! …Sonny prides himself on doing whatever it takes to protect his family. In his line of work threats are part of the territory. Sadly, it’s not uncommon for enemies to send messages through spouses and even children. Moreover, whichever enemy makes the threat against the family will be dealt with. That is, if he outsmarts the enemy.

The mob is no place for the faint of heart. If you sign up for this lifestyle, you better know what you’re getting into. So basically, choosing this path takes a special type of person. While falling in love with a mobster is a choice, having been born to a mob family certainly is not. No matter how you look at it, the boss, the spouse, and the children must know their role.

Over the years, Sonny and his family have made a name for themselves around Port Charles. And when we refer to Sonny’s family, Carly Corinthos immediately comes to mind. After all, she and Sonny were the most powerful couple in PC. Individually, Carly and Sonny are forced to be reckoned with. And with put together, they were unstoppable. General Hospital recaps recall the dynamic duo and the strength they display as a team. But when Nina came into Sonny’s orbit, things began to unravel.

Sonny Catches On, Calls Out Nina

General Hospital previews indicate Sonny calls out Nina for her strange behavior. Unlike Carly, Nina isn’t cut out for the mob life. She doesn’t understand how one small act can send a domino effect in motion, taking down everyone he loves, one at a time. Because Nina was never cut out for this, she made a move any mob wife would never make. She didn’t think things through, ultimately putting Sonny at risk. Now that that Feds are involved in Carly and Drew’s SEC scandal, Sonny could be skating on thin ice… all thanks to his lovely bride-to-be.

According to recent General Hospital spoilers, the walls are closing in on Nina. As she feels pressured by friends and her own conscience, Nina’s erratic behavior raises red flags. Sonny calls out Nina for her strange behavior. Will she crack?

General Hospital Spoilers: Nina Calls Off The Wedding!

Nina calls off the wedding will Sonny and Nina get married

Nina calls off the wedding!?!? …Will Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) make it to the altar?

GH Spoilers: Well, what do you know? This just might be the first unselfishly motivated act that we’ve seen out of Nina in a long time. Honestly, I’m impressed, and even surprised by this. So, let’s stop and think before we give her credit. Odds are that her decision is not completely selfless.

Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) has a one-track mind. She holds onto hope that her chosen path will lead to everything she’s ever wanted. The problem is that Nina doesn’t consider the damage inflicted on others. In her quest for a happily ever after, she sets the fires and then plays the victim. Because in Nina’s mind the end justifies the means. Additionally, anyone in her way is collateral damage.

General Hospital recaps highlight Nina’s latest revenge tactic. She’s got her eyes on the prize but gets in her own way with her jealousy and insecurities. Obviously, Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) is the source of Nina’s insecurities. So it’s just like Nina to try and eliminate the competition. Despite Sonny’s proposal and profession of love, Nina’s insecurities caused her to take action against her enemy.

How would she ensure that Carly is out of the picture?! Easy. That’s when she pulled out the incriminating information about Carly sent to jail. Although the plan seemed like a good idea to Nina, she’s quickly learning what a colossal mess she’s made. Most importantly, she fears she’ll lose Sonny when he finds out what she’s done to Carly and the entire family.

Ava Advises Nina On The Sonny Situation- Nina Calls Off the Wedding!?!?

Luckily for Nina, she still has a friend left in her corner. But, this friend isn’t going to tell her what she wants to hear. Ava Jerome (Maura West) has ties to both Sonny and Carly. According to recent General Hospital spoilers, Ava gives Nina some advice. So, what could Ava possibly say that would make Nina call off the wedding?
