General Hospital (GH) spoilers for the week of August 1-5 tease that Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will deliver a new assignment while Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson) is on the verge of hitting rock bottom. Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) will also face a memory trigger, so let’s talk about what’s in store.
For starters, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) will finally take the stand and offer her side of the story in court.
Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennesy) will use her best strategy and work hard to show Trina is an innocent woman, but she’ll be facing quite a battle.
Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) will keep working to get info that could clear Trina, but Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) will be busy having a major faceoff with Ava Jerome Cassadine (Maura West).
It looks like Ava will know the truth about Esme and Nikolas Cassadine’s (Marcus Coloma) hookup by then, so they’ll have a confrontation that ultimately turns physical.
Nikolas will corner Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) and perhaps try to explain his actions, but Spencer will surely be hopping mad.
Although Spencer’s reunion with Esme was a ruse, Nikolas didn’t know that and had no business sleeping with his son’s love interest anyway.
This was still a huge betrayal that Nikolas deserves to be ripped to shreds over.
Nikolas will eventually try to explain himself to Ava as well, but there’s no way she can forgive him for sleeping with the enemy.
Ava will no doubt want to move forward with the divorce and make sure it sticks this time.
Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) will eventually take someone into custody and put this person through a grilling session.
That could be Esme unless Ava does something drastic like throw her off the parapet! In that case, Ava herself could land in trouble with the law.
At GH, Hamilton Finn (Michael Easton) will offer support during Liz’s first day back on the job.
However, Elizabeth has a big surprise headed her way – and it looks like it’ll involve something that triggers a forgotten memory.
Liz may finally start to uncover some trauma of the past, which Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom) thinks would be beneficial to her recovery.
Over with Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen), she’ll face some difficult test results and sit down with her medical team regarding her next steps.
Terry Randolph (Cassandra James) will help Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) explain what Willow is up against, so Terry’s involvement points to a cancer crisis.
While Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) is on the phone plotting, Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) will appear.
There’s the potential for Sam to overhear Michael scheming against Sonny, so we’ll see how it all plays out.
Regardless, Sam will turn to Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) for help with a case later.
Spinelli will take a break from all the Society Setups drama while Britt gets irritated with a persistent Cody Bell (Josh Kelly).
At the Metro Court Gardens, Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) will bump into Sasha and notice that she seems on edge.
Sasha’s intense grief and drug problem will continue to make a mess of her life, so her job as the face of Deception could be on the line.
There’ll indeed be some news that Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms), Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) meet to discuss, so we’ll see if that’s regarding Sasha and her downward spiral.
Brando Corbin (Johnny Wactor) will turn to Sonny for advice after Sasha’s latest outburst.
As Sasha pushes Brando away and refuses the help she needs, Brando won’t know what to do and will need Sonny’s guidance.
Sonny will also have a new assignment for Dex Heller (Evan Hofer), so Dex will have another chance to prove himself and potentially become the new Jason Morgan (Steve Burton.
Since Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) wants his plant to become part of Sonny’s inner circle, he’ll be pleased over Dex’s progress.
At the Metro Court, there’ll be some police drama after a shocking altercation.
Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) will also mull over his future at the PCPD and have a significant conversation with Jordan about it.
Finally, Gregory Chase (Gregory Harrison) and Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) will have a little meeting – one that’ll reveal who won their latest bet regarding the content at The Invader.
No matter who comes out on top, Alexis and Gregory seem to be headed in a romantic direction.
