“General Hospital” gears up for one of its most turbulent Fridays yet, as the November 22, 2025 episode delivers a powerhouse hour of emotional devastation, criminal intrigue,

and unraveling alliances. The walls of Port Charles are closing in on multiple characters, and this episode plants the seeds for a seismic shift that will redefine family loyalty,

romantic trust, and the city’s delicate balance of power.

SUNNY AND MICHAEL CORNER JUSTINDA — AND HER WORLD BEGINS TO COLLAPSE

The episode opens inside the hushed luxury of the Metro Court suite, where the atmosphere is suffocatingly tense. Justinda Bracken sits with her hands trembling on her knees as Sonny Corinthos orders her into the quiet corner of the room. It’s her first sign that her carefully crafted façade is cracking.

Michael Corinthos stands silently by the window, arms crossed. His silence cuts deeper than Sonny’s interrogation — a cold, wordless judgment that shakes Justinda to her core. She recognizes what’s happening. She has rehearsed excuses, polished lies, and fabricated timelines. But none of them can shield her from the two Corinthoses now closing around her like jaws.

Sonny begins methodically. He repeats her own words about the night Drew Kane was shot. Her “perfect” timeline — a night alone, no calls, no witnesses — was too polished. Too clean. Too rehearsed. And Sonny Corinthos never accepts stories that are too clean.

Now, he reveals the cracks she never expected him to find.

Her hotel key card log doesn’t match.
Her rideshare history is nonexistent.
Someone — likely herself — paid cash to wipe any trace of her movements.

And Sonny followed every faint breadcrumb.

Then comes the killing blow: he knows she wasn’t alone that night.

Justinda’s voice shakes as she tries to deny it, but Sonny isn’t angry. Not yet. His calmness is far more frightening — because it means he already knows most of the truth.

Michael steps forward, his voice trembling with fury as he repeats her promises of innocence. Her betrayal hits him like a blade. His disappointment stings her worse than Sonny’s threats. When she finally cracks and admits she wasn’t alone, she can’t even lift her eyes to Michael.

But she reveals only part of the truth. She hides the name of the man she was with — Ezra Bole — though she knows Sonny will eventually find him. And when he does, the fallout will be catastrophic.

Sonny then shifts from interrogator to strategist. With Justinda’s partial confession exposed, the danger becomes clear: the police are closing in, and one wrong detail could land Justinda — and the Corinthos family — in the line of fire. Sonny demands absolute obedience as he rebuilds her alibi from scratch.

Michael, though heartbroken, ultimately agrees. Protecting the family comes first, even if that means protecting the woman who deceived him.

BRITT WESTBOURNE FACES A KILLER — AND A TERRIFYING ULTIMATUM

Across town, another secret threatens to reshape the landscape of Port Charles.

Britt Westbourne stands in the cold shadows behind the medical research building, staring into the chilling eyes of Jen Sidwell — a man who casually admits he killed Professor Henry Dalton. His jacket still carries the scent of gunpowder. Britt tries desperately to mask her terror.

Sidwell warns her with a calm ruthlessness:
If she tells anyone what she knows, he will kill her too.

When Sidwell leaves, Britt collapses against the wall, realizing the trap she now lives inside. Silence is her only survival tactic, but silence also makes her a witness who could be eliminated at any moment.

Unbeknownst to her, someone else in Port Charles has already seen a fragment of Sidwell’s crime — and that evidence is making its way toward the authorities.

WILLOW SEES A GLIMMER OF FREEDOM — BUT NINA’S RISKY PLAN LOOMS

Meanwhile, Alexis Davis delivers documents to Willow Tate proving the alibi protecting Michael Corinthos is fake. For the first time in months, Willow feels hope. The courtroom door she thought sealed shut may now open — giving her a path to reclaim her children and her independence.

But Nina Reeves senses this shift and arrives with a frantic determination. She swears she’ll help her daughter no matter what. But Willow recognizes that dangerous spark in her mother’s eye — the one that signals Nina is about to cross legal and moral lines.

And she’s right.

Nina has already identified a person she intends to pressure into providing false testimony. Willow doesn’t yet know the details, but she senses the instability and desperation in Nina’s voice. One wrong step, and Nina could land herself in prison while derailing Willow’s case entirely.

CHASE DISCOVERS THE TWIST THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING

Detective Harrison Chase faces a double battle: supporting Willow while leading the investigation into Dalton’s shocking death.

Laura Collins, who hit Dalton with her car, remains a person of interest — but Chase’s forensic review paints a very different picture. Dalton was shot before Laura’s car ever reached him. The collision was staged to frame her.

This revelation dismantles the entire timeline and forces Chase to widen his investigation. He discovers a small but significant piece of shell casing near where Dalton was found — physical proof that a shooter stood on that street before Laura arrived.

And as fate would have it, Britt walks past the same location minutes later, unaware she is inches from the evidence that could expose Sidwell — and potentially cost her life.

LUCAS ENTERS WINDMIR — AND STUMBLES INTO A DEADLY CONSPIRACY

At Windmir, Lucas Jones defies Carly’s desperate warnings and moves in with Marco Rios. But the mansion’s dim corridors conceal more than tension.

Late at night, Lucas overhears Marco speaking with a sinister voice — one he doesn’t recognize at first.

Then realization hits him like ice.

The voice is Sidwell’s.

Lucas listens as they discuss Dalton’s murder, Laura’s framing, and Britt’s rising fear. He hears them admit Britt could be a liability — and that if she “slips,” they’ll “clean up the mess.”

Lucas stumbles away in horror, realizing he may be the only person who now knows the full scope of the conspiracy.

And Sidwell doesn’t leave loose ends.

PORT CHARLES IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE

This episode brings Port Charles to the brink of total chaos:

• Sonny and Michael are more vulnerable than ever.
• Justinda is collapsing under the weight of her own lies.
• Britt is trapped in a deadly secret.
• Willow sees freedom — but Nina’s desperation may destroy everything.
• Chase is inches from uncovering the real killer.
• Lucas is now a danger to the most violent man in town.

Every storyline is a fuse inching toward detonation.

And when the explosion hits, no one in Port Charles will be safe.
