General Hospital ends the week with a big shock for Congresswoman Willow. According to spoilers for Friday, September 18, 2026, Ric delivers bad news, Charlotte is ready to put her plan into motion, and Molly has some questions for Lucas.

WSB Black Site

The last thing Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) expects Ric (Rick Hearst) to tell her is that the WSB has arrested her mother. She knew that the WSB had been asking questions, but she also knew her mother would never (purposely) hurt Jack (Chris McKenna). Willow insists that she needs to get to Nina right away, but Ric tells her it's too late.

Will Willow prove Jack right or wrong? He pretty much said that Willow would walk right over Nina's (Cynthia Watros) dead body, but will she let her languish in a WSB black site to save herself? She could come forward with her own information, but that would put her in a very difficult position, indeed.

Charlotte Takes Charge

Meanwhile, Drew (Cameron Mathison) has no idea what's coming. As he meets with Jordan (Tanisha Harper) to discuss Aurora business, two teens are plotting his downfall and they are both Cassadines, so Drew had better watch himself. They already distracted rogue WSB agents and international criminals on Spoon Island.

However, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) thinks Charlotte's (Bluesy Burke) latest idea for Drew is nuts. Is she ready to put Drew in a compromising position by using her underage self? It's quite a daring idea, but also one that could end up causing quite a bit of trouble. Perhaps Danny wants to call Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) or Lulu (Alexa Havins) to take care of their wayward child?

Around Port Charles

Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) happily visits Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) again with a big surprise. They take things into the interrogation room for a chat. Will Ric show up and not like what he sees? He already spent time in that interrogation room earlier.

And finally, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) is intrigued when she sees Lucas (Van Hansis) and Joe (Jonathan Bennett) working out and wonders if there is something going on. Lucas tells Molly that her radar is down, but Molly doesn't think so. She detects something between the roomies.

Will Willow lift a finger to help Nina? Is Charlotte about to get in way too deep? Sound off in the comments.
