GH Hump Day Hot Takes: Popcorn, Pools, Parties, and Natasha Cassadine Coming out to Play

General Hospital's Josslyn thought she could fool everyone, so it's a good thing half the town won't look dumb again for the junior super spy's latest assignment. But let's hope the WSB has funding, as Willow is playing games that Natashsa...we mean...Alexis wants to end.

Just Like That...

And Josslyn (Eden McCoy) thought that she could just tell her mother and her BFF that she thought things over and said, "Thanks, but no thanks" to the WSB. How did she (and Jack, who is not as much of a super spy as he thinks he is) think that was going to work?

Carly (Laura Wright) saw through her immediately, but since she didn't have a code word for her mom, Carly basically gave Josslyn a wink and said, "Sure."

Trina heard "popcorn" and that was all she needed to know that she had to stop asking questions.

Now, if only we knew who the heck Hudson (Troy Appell) was and what he's really up to in Port Charles. Having him involved with the baby plot and the JJE plot is just weird and it makes us wonder if there was some sort of behind the scenes mix-up or change. Does GH even know who Hudson actually is?

Willow Gets a Win?

Welp, it looks like Jack (Chris McKenna) and Nina (Cynthia Watros) are over before they ever really got started because Nina's nutjob of a daughter thought she had it all planned when she recorded Jack admitting to...questionable acts.

And we thought Nina would be outraged at Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) for doing such a thing to her man, but instead, she worried that the WSB might kill Willow. So, instead, she was outraged at Jack for having the nerve to tell her the truth. She could die tomorrow and Willow wouldn't shed a tear. And well, he's right. She wouldn't. That's how diabolical she has become.

Think Again, Willow...

But Willow forgot all about threatening Kai (Jens Austin Astrup). She actually thought he was just going to roll over and lie down because she told him to. Wrong, Willow. Of course, he went to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn). And of course, he went to Alexis in January.

Willow really didn't think this whole shoot Drew (Cameron Mathison) twice thing over well, did she? Sure, she may have been found not guilty, but that didn't make her not guilty. Someone was bound to find out and since she took the stand in her own defense thanks to Drew, well...

And guess who arrived? Natasha Cassadine. She has been staying quiet for far too long, but she is not playing anymore. Willow, you in danger, girl.

About the Metro Court Gardens

The number of times characters meet with meals at the Metro Court Gardens is actually astonishing. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks, no food or beverages at all...it doesn't matter. Come back multiple times a day, even after some time at the pool. Heck, it's the only place Drew and Ava ever seem to be. They aren't even invited to Sonny's big party.

And the pool? Don't get us started on how many people come to the pool in business attire. And Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) swam laps in that pool? We actually saw the other end of it this week. It's the size of half a backyard pool. Nobody is swimming laps there, but nice try, GH.

Are you glad nobody believed Josslyn's lies this time? Is the Metro Court Gardens getting ridiculous? Do we need to see Natasha more often? Sound off in the comments.
