General Hospital (GH) spoilers update for Monday, July 19, teases that Peter August’s (Wes Ramsey) pilot will face Valentin Cassadine’s (James Patrick Stuart) fury while Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) has one last baby visit before leaving town. Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) will also have a secret gift in mind, so here’s what fans can look forward to.
At New York Methodist Hospital, “Mike” aka Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will continue his plea to Nina. Sonny has just admitted that Nina’s needed back in Nixon Falls, so he’s hoping she’ll come home.
Of course, Nina’s been wondering exactly where “home” really is these days, but she’ll know that Sonny wouldn’t ask this unless it was truly important.
“Mike” may admit that Lenny got some terrible health news, so Phyllis Caulfield (Joyce Guy) is an emotional wreck. Sonny isn’t doing so great himself, so they could all use the light Nina brings to their lives.
Once Nina presumably agrees to meet back up with Sonny, Lenny and Phyllis in Nixon Falls, she’ll make another phone call and set up some sort of gift to repay the Caulfields’ kindness.
Nina might offer a donation so Lenny can pursue treatment options or just a present to lift the couple’s spirits.
Back in Manhattan, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) will take the lead at Ryan’s Bar. David Hopkins was Peter’s pilot and could offer answers about the last day Peter was seen. Anna will prepare for her meeting and force Valentin to wait in the distance.
Once Anna moseys up to the bar, she’ll try to charm David into giving her some information. It looks like David will get the wrong idea and make a move on Anna.
Naturally, that’s not going to go over well with Valentin, who’s feeling especially protective these days since his feelings for Anna have grown stronger.
Valentin will grab a guy and pin him down before vowing to break his wrists if he moves. If this is indeed David, Valentin might end up being the one who pries the most info out of him.
At the rooftop pool, Cameron Webber (William Lipton) will slather Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) in sunscreen as they adjust to becoming more than friends.
There’ll also be an adjustment for Trina Robinson (Sydney Mikayla), who may be wary of things not working out.
Trina has been fighting hard to get her crew back to normal, so she might worry Cam and Joss will break up eventually – which could put them back at square one when it comes to awkwardness.
However, Josslyn may assure Trina that they’ll all remain friends no matter what.
Joss should find a way to get Trina on board with the change while Ava Jerome Cassadine (Maura West) keeps things short with Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma).
Ava and Nikolas will interact briefly at the Metro Court, but she’ll send him back to Spencer Cassadine’s (Nicholas Chavez) table soon after.
Spencer will see that Nikolas is in pain, but he’ll argue that maybe this is for the best. He’ll try to act like there’s real danger to Ava and will bring up the cockroach that was encased in plexiglass.
After Nikolas pauses for a moment, he’ll seem suspicious and wonder how Spencer knew about that.
Spencer will realize he messed up and could blow his stalker cover if he’s not careful.
While Spencer tries to explain away his knowledge, Ava will join Austin Gatlin Holt (Roger Howarth) and perhaps apologize for her recent behavior.
Ava may admit she’s been going through a rough time due to her divorce, so despair and alcohol didn’t end up being a good mix.
Maybe Ava will hope they can start over as friends and get Austin’s approval. Austin will ask how something’s working out for Ava, so he may sense that coping isn’t as easy for her without being inebriated.
There’ll be some fun and flirty scenes, so GH might want to pair Ava and Austin up if this Nikolas divorce actually happens.
Austin will remain a concern for Maxie and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton), but there’s no need just yet. Although Austin could become a threat later, he has no inkling about the baby deception at this point.
Since Maxie will be spending a few weeks in Texas, she’ll happily accept Brook Lynn’s offer to spend a little time with “Bailey Quartermaine” aka Louise August (Harper and Scarlett Bloom) before she goes.
Maxie will have to say goodbye for now, but she’ll be back to reclaim her daughter down the road.
We’ll offer updates as other GH news pops up. General Hospital spoilers say Brook Lynn will have to navigate this tricky situation without Maxie in the meantime, so stay tuned.
