Today on General Hospital, Carly opens up to Lucas about the new man in her life, Ethan and Lulu reconnect, and Willow picks a fight with Jacinda and threatens her.

Ethan is on the pier, on the phone, leaving a message for someone. He says he just got into town, and if they can’t meet him tonight, he’ll be at the pier every day around noon, and hopes to see them soon.

Why Is Ethan Back?
Lulu shows up, is shocked to see her brother, and rushes into his arms. He claims he dropped in to surprise his sister, but she asks who he is running from this time? He says he’s a professional and is shocked she thinks he would get caught. He insists no one after him, that he knows, and just misses his family.

Ethan tells his sister he just got back from France, saw his mom, Robert, Sasha, and Daisy, and now he’s here to see her. He says he was going to call her after he finished reminiscing here and thinks about The Haunted Star. Ethan still can’t believe their dad is gone.
After she catches him up on Rocco, Charlotte, Dante, and teasing that she’s seeing someone new, Lulu asks if he has met anyone. He says he never stays in one place long enough to, and calls Port Charles the closest thing he has to home. She asks how long he’s staying, and he says it might be open-ended.
Lulu insists Ethan stay with her, and he accepts. He says he’ll meet her at her place later as he still has one more stop to make.
What’s Laura’s Plan to Take Down Sidwell?
At Laura’s, Ezra finally stirs awake and asks the mayor if she leaked the video she took of him. She assures him she only took the video to show him how badly he was acting, and if she wanted him exposed, she would have left him there on his own.
Ezra asks why she did this for him, and she admits she has no idea. Laura says she knows they are both stuck under Sidwell’s thumb, and she has no reason to make his life more difficult. Ezra is overcome with guilt and tells Laura that he’s pretty sure he’s the reason Sidwell framed her.

Ezra explains that Sidwell thought he could charm her into working with him, but he made an offhand remark that he’d need leverage over her. She thanks him, saying it’s nice to hear him apologize, but the only person to blame is Sidwell.
Laura tells him she believes there is more to Sidwell’s new flight plan than just getting around quickly. She approved the flight path, and she needs Ezra to find out why it was so important to him. Maybe they can get the FAA, the WSB, and the feds involved.
Kristina Gives Michael Advice
Michael drops Donna’s backpack off at Sonny’s, as Kristina is babysitting her tonight. They chat about the opening of Charlie’s. Kristina pulls up comments online, and one in particular mentions Jacinda has a great voice, and too bad she’s dating a homicidal maniac.
Michael hates that everyone thinks he shot Drew and framed Willow. However, he knows Willow shot Drew, and he intends to prove it. While she can’t be tried again, Michael believes he can cost her her job and reputation, and use it to get full custody of the kids again.

Kristina cautions him and says that if he puts the kids through another custody battle, he’ll be doing what their parents did to them. She isn’t saying not to find the evidence to clear his name, but don’t use it to take the kids from Willow. It will only hurt them.
Who Is Willow Threatening Now?
Willow and Wiley are at The Bad Jen Café when Jacinda walks in. Wiley immediately runs over, hugs her, and tells her he got an A on his spider project.

Willow is clearly annoyed, especially when Wiley gushes about how Jacinda is a spider expert, and she’s excellent at the Tron video game. Jacinda takes off, and Willow tells the boy they should get him ready for his sleepover at Liam’s.

Later, Willow shows up at Crimson to see Jacinda and orders her to stay away from her children! When Willow calls her a danger to her children, Jacinda notes she’s not the one who shot Drew in the back, twice! Willow claims she’s innocent and Michael framed her. They bicker, trade insults, and Jacinda accuses Willow of looking for someone to blame for the mess her life has become, but it’s all her own fault.
Nina Has a Houseguest!
Nina returns home and is stunned to find Valentin in her living room sipping a drink. She asks why he’s come to see her and whether he’s been hiding in Port Charles the whole time. He asks if she’s asking or Jack Brennan?
Valentin wastes no time calling her out on trying to get information from Charlotte about him for Jack. Nina hates that Charlotte figured her out, and she never wanted to hurt the girl. She says she stalled Jack as long as she could, but he’s forcing her hand and is threatening to destroy Willow’s life.

Valentin knows she loves Charlotte and doesn’t blame her for any of this; he blames Jack. Nina says she has a way to keep him at bay for a while, but he’s obsessed with finding him. Valentin suggests Nina give him what he wants.
Carly Tells Lucas About Her New Man
At Carly’s, she and Lucas are preparing a meal and catching up. Lucas opens a package she says contains a new garlic press, but finds an electric razor instead, and wonders if she is making Jack shave his goatee. She claims he sometimes forgets his razor, so she got him one for when he stays over. Lucas notes his sister is acting very weird about this and keeps pushing her until she admits she’s seeing another man.

Lucas tells his sister that she’s been down the cheating road before and knows how it will end. Carly claims it’s a new relationship, but it has no future. Lucas soon realizes his sister really cares about this guy, and wonders why she’s not dumping Brennan for him. Carly says she has to be with Jack and can’t explain her reasons. She asks her brother to drop it.
As Carly ends up gushing about her new guy, Lucas notes he’s never heard her talk about a man like this in, well, ever! Carly explains that unusual circumstances brought them together, and when they inevitably change, it will be the end of their relationship. Lucas senses she doesn’t want to see that happen.
In The Show’s Final Moments
Ezra agrees to help Laura with her plan, and she tells him that, in the future, if the pressure of Sidwell gets to him, he should call her rather than go drinking. He says deal, and they bump fists.
Ethan drops by Sonny’s place and is surprised when Kristina answers the door. He calls this his lucky day.

Lucas and Carly sit down to their meal, which, as it turns out, is just a salad. The doctor says he’ll support whatever decision Carly makes about her men, and she wishes she had been more understanding regarding him and Marco. He then boxes her in, as she puts it, and he hopes she’ll be understanding about him staying at Wyndemere.

Valentin wants Nina to feed Jack information, but only what he wants him to have. She fears Jack’s retribution when he realizes she’s played him, but Valentin says he’s her best bet to take Jack down.
Finally, as Willow tells Jacinda that there will be hell to pay if she gets near her kids, Michael walks into the office!
