ead GH Spoilers for the week of April 20: Ethan Reconnects, NYC Excitement, Criminal Secrets

Carly And Lucas Catch Up

At Carly Spencer’s (Laura Wright) house, she’s in the kitchen as her brother, Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) drops in for a visit; but it seems he wants to discuss a sore subject.

Carly tells Lucas that she’d greatly appreciate it if he’d just drop it, but most likely he’ll keep it up.

Perhaps Lucas is still trying to arrange a dinner party at Wyndemere, even though Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) is no longer in the picture.

Lucas stood his ground with Britt Westbourne, (Kelly Thiebaud) when he told her he intended to complete Marco’s mission and get more of her medicine to reverse-engineer.

He isn’t in the loop about Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) needing to order some more, since he must have another source than Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) but Lucas still needs a diversion!

Lulu’s Surprise

Lulu’s down by the docks by Pier 55 as she comes upon a familiar figure looking at the harbor-her half-brother Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean) has come to Port Charles.

This is the first time in years that Ethan’s shown up, and especially by himself-Lulu first asks, “Do I know you”? and then when he turns around, “Who are you running from this time?”

All indications are that he’s not running from anyone but rather coming to handle a problem-likely a problem named Sidwell.

Sidwell had been a problem not only for his and Lulu’s brother Lucky Spencer, (Jonathan Jackson) but his mother Holly Sutton (Emma Samms) and other half-sister Sasha Corbin (Sofia Mattson) as well!

Behind-the-scenes photos also show Ethan showing up at Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) house.

Nina’s Shock

Nina comes running into her place and can’t believe who she sees, as she confronts her unexpected guest with shock!

She demands, “What the hell are you doing in my living room?” and per the GH weekly promo, she’s addressing Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart)!

Nina will receive an intriguing offer-it looks like Valentin might make her a better deal than Jack Brennan (Chris L. McKenna) did to protect her daughter Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen).

Valentin knows that Nina was being blackmailed by Jack to use Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) to find Valentin so Jack could arrest him.

But Jack’s not the only spy who knows how to make video evidence disappear and reappear; maybe Valentin offers to delete the incriminating footage from wherever Jack is keeping it!

Ezra’s Sorry

After Laura brought an extremely drunk Ezra home from the Brown Dog Bar to sober up, his ending up passing out on her couch, now he’s slept it off.

Laura looks a mix of worried, offended, and sympathetic as he tells her he’s the reason Sidwell framed her for the murder!

Viewers will remember that Sidwell himself shot and killed Professor Henry Dalton (Daniel Goddard) in the living room of Wyndemere, in front of Britt and Pascal (Marc Forget).

Then “someone” took photos of his corpse in Laura’s trunk, with Sonny and Laura looking at them after she got a flat tire, perhaps intentionally.

Laura will propose an alliance, as she can tell Ezra is truly sorry!

Kristina Is Taken Aback

Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) is taken aback and questions Michael Corinthos, (Rory Gibson) asking “Are you saying you have proof Willow shot Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison)?

Willow can’t be tried for the crime again because of double-jeopardy rules, but it sure could make a case for sole custody for Michael of their children!

Right now they have a joint custody arrangement but that could easily change with that kind of proof.

What kind of proof does Michael have that he didn’t have before, when Willow was tried and he was nearly accused?

Of course, there is that thing that Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) and Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) were keeping secret, that they were hiding in Drew’s bedroom at the time.

Willow Confronts Jacinda

In the meantime, Willow is confronting Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell) as she works at her job at Crimson Magazine. Willow is livid as she tells her, “From now on, stay away from my children!”

Perhaps when Willow was talking to Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn Quartermaine’s (Amanda Setton) social worker she heard about Wiley Corinthos (Viron Weaver) asking what a hooker was!

Of course, that phraseology came from Olivia Quartermaine (Lisa LoCicero) but the fact is, Jacinda had been working as an escort, the street term for the job being “hooker”.

Is Willow afraid that her children’s morals will be corrupted or something?
