Short version: ABC ran an encore on Labor Day, so Tuesday is the first new hour since Friday — 2 p.m. ET / 1 p.m. CT on ABC — and it picks up with Anna Devane's gun still raised.

Tuesday, September 8, 2026 · Season 2026, Episode 175 (production episode #16040) · 2 p.m. ET / 1 p.m. CT on ABC. Listings via TVmaze.

One small thing worth noting: Friday was production episode #16039 and today is #16040. The numbers run straight on, which is the paperwork confirming that Monday's Luke Spencer tribute was a replay and not a lost hour of story.

What did we miss over the long weekend?

Friday put two clocks on the screen at once. At the Q estate, Chase pressed Brook Lynn about the scrape on her car and where she was on Route 91, Trina heard enough of it through a door, and she asked the question in front of Jordan before the credits hit.

Out on Mount Emerson, Anna finished a trap she had been building all hour — a shooting range, a stocked trunk, a phone call promising Britt news about Cassius. Britt drove out. Anna drew. Our Friday recap has the full sequence, and the week in review covers how the burial plot got there.

Does Jason talk Anna down on Mount Emerson?

He tries. Soaps.com's week-ahead sums Tuesday up as Britt facing a life-or-death situation while Jason makes a desperate plea, and both Daytime Soap Stop and Soap Opera Spy describe him arguing with Anna rather than rushing her — asking her to lower the weapon and remember who she is.

Daytime Soap Stop is the one source saying he pieces the location together through Tristan and Sonny. Treat that as one outlet's detail, not a settled fact.

👉 Nothing published says who walks off that ridge. The spoilers stop at the plea.

Tuesday's GH, in one card.

What is Trina accusing Brook Lynn of?

Of being the driver. Two years ago Curtis and Jordan were left on Route 91 after a crash, and Chase's questioning gave Trina the piece she was missing.

Brook Lynn tried to buy time with a promise to explain after the Labor Day party. Tuesday is Trina refusing to wait, which is the version both Daytime Soap Stop and Soap Opera Spy report.

Why is Drew ready to call the police?

Because he cannot find Scout, and because of who she has been spending her time with. Soaps.com has him lashing out at someone; the day-ahead columns have him considering the authorities.

The two detailed reports disagree on where he turns up — Daytime Soap Stop puts him at Sonny's, Soap Opera Spy at Alexis's. He may well do both. Scout, meanwhile, kissed Rocco at the boathouse on Friday, which is the part of this Drew has not heard yet.

What does Isaiah want from Ava?

An address. He pulled a Lone Star tick off her head on Friday, told her the species has not been seen in Port Charles, and said he would flag it. Tuesday he starts asking where she picked it up.

She picked it up in the preserve where Jack Brennan is buried. Soaps.com also has something catching Portia and Isaiah off guard, and Ava trying to steer Drew away from making that call.
