Not all accidents or incidents needed explosions or over-the-top chaos following this week’s GH weekly recap.
There’s a perfectly healthy man (Jack Brennan) who got stabbed in the back followed by another man (Ross Cullum) walking away discharged from GH.
Finally, a heated brawl has erupted elsewhere by also two different men at the Metro Court outdoor restaurant.
Sports Benches is the place to be for your weekly GH recaps, particularly Australians who enjoy other soaps.
With Sports, we’re taking a break this week since it’s a NASCAR non-points race.
We will return for the Coca Cola 600 alongside Super Netball and the Sports Benches Super Rugby regular season-finale for Round 15/16 with NSW Waratahs v ACT Brumbies for Monday May 25, 2026.
What Just Happened? The aftermath with Brennan v Valentin
Can’t help but wonder why two perfectly healthy men got stabbed with a syringe containing locked-in medicine the past three months — only at Willow’s home.
First, Willow did this on Drew as a way to keep him hostage followed by Nina on Brennan earlier this week despite calling this an “accident”.
Nina trying to stop the fight between Brennan v Valentin was her poor impersonation of John Oliver who would scream drama much better than the error-prone one herself.
As far as Brennan is concerned, he’ll be okay but he would have to wait for the drugs to come off naturally before speaking again.
That’s where Drew tried to move around a bit for the first time in a while before Willow put the brakes again unfortunately.
Don’t forget Sidwell sees Willow as his political property who was also indirectly behind Drew’s locked-in state when Ezra Boyle couldn’t fulfill his orders and later sided with Madame Mayor Laura Collins.
Mr C hits the road again while Rocco begins hiding
Meanwhile, his WSB boss at-large Ross Cullum is back still standing like he’s Elton John for unfinished business.
Who shot him in the back? He knows it wasn’t Jason whose arrest warrant was made before the Pier 55 shooting. Jason was involved in a physical brawl with Cullum as there’s no way he’s going to relax these punishments all the way to “The Pit” in Jakarta, Indonesia.
The real person behind the pistol, however, is Rocco Falconieri.
He just told his detective dad Dante everything after being on the pump against Danny & Charlotte about sneaking into Wyndamere together to expose Sidwell.
I’m sure Dante and Lulu will do everything they can to protect Rocco when running away off GH isn’t an option but then Cassius will find another way to protect his own associates first like Cullum and Pascal than pretentious loved ones including Maxie Jones & James West.
You can see Josslyn tried to convince Cassius by pleading to help him out while being held captive earlier today but no, just no.
Isaiah v Curtis: Round 2
Now this was the moment we’ve been waiting for in this week’s GH recap, Dr. Isaiah Gannon v Curtis Ashford.
Geez those events are worth free to watch at the Metro Court outdoor restaurant but twice the laughs following Sidwell’s own comedy roast lately with Lucy v Ava over his heart lol.
It comes after Curtis was repeatedly convinced that Isaiah almost left them for dead including Jordan’s face now covered in scars.
While there’s still no footage yet of Dr. Gannon going through Route 91 behind the black BMW SUV, Isaiah’s remarks on being a better father – who isn’t biologically linked to Portia’s unborn child but Curtis – is what landed with a punch to his face.
Yes, that was unnecessary from Curtis causing a scene — at least it wasn’t against Drew lol.
That doesn’t mean Dr. Gannon gets a free pass though for avoiding questions with ADA Turner and neither does Brook Lynn when adopting Phoebe may not happen in more ways than one.
There’s Ethan standing in its way whose relationship was with the baby’s mother Delilah prior to her death, the same Brook Lynn is still a suspect from Curtis & Jordan’s car crash and now PI Mavis just took a picture of exes Chase & Willow hugging each other at the park.
It’s not looking good either way but that’s where this aftermath is heading very ugly going into next week.
