General Hospital Spoilers Wednesday, September 23, 2026: Monet Arrives, Drew Watches

Short version: Wednesday is new — Ep. #16051, 2 p.m. ET on ABC. Chase sits down with a lawyer nobody in Port Charles has met yet, and that lawyer is Monet, Blythe Howard’s first day on the show. Before the hour is out, Drew sees Chase and Willow share a moment he will absolutely try to use.
If you only read one thing before 2 p.m., make it the table. Everything below it is the detail.
| Thread | Who | What moves on Wednesday |
|---|---|---|
| Custody | Chase, Monet | Chase wants to keep Phoebe; Monet has ideas |
| Chase & Willow | Chase, Willow, Drew | A close moment, and Drew is watching |
| Nina’s case | Ava, Willow | Ava asks whether Willow thinks Nina did it |
| Quartermaines | Tracy, Brook Lynn | Tracy backs Brook Lynn and goes looking for help |
| Drew’s rivals | Sonny, Ric | The brothers plan their next move against Drew |
| Side stories | Trina, Kai | Trina makes a call; Kai hears an offer |
What happened on Tuesday?
Jordan walked out of the Brown Dog and caught Sonny and Justine kissing in the spot where they first did. Valentin, done with Charlotte’s setup of Drew, took her phone and cut off her contact with Danny.
Anna and Britt finally shared a room and, after a rough start with Emma in the middle, called things even. Tracy also leaned on Danny until he agreed to come clean to Jason. Monday’s fallout is in our recap of the Charlotte bust.
What happens on General Hospital Wednesday?
Chase hires help
Chase lays out his situation to Monet, a new litigator at Diane and Alexis’s firm. He and Brook Lynn only recently adopted Phoebe, and with the marriage in trouble he wants a plan to stay in her life.
Drew gets his leverage
Chase and Willow get closer than either should, and Drew sees it. The spoilers disagree on where it happens, so we won’t guess. What matters is that Drew, fighting Willow, now holds something on her.
Ava tests Willow
Ava asks Willow flat out whether she believes Nina is guilty. Willow insists her mother was set up. Given what Ava knows about Jack Brennan, that answer lands differently for her than for Willow.

Tracy picks a side
Tracy tells Brook Lynn that if Chase walks over her secret, he’s the one lying. Then she recruits someone new to the cause. Fall previews point to Michael, though Wednesday’s spoilers stop short of naming him.
Sonny and Ric vs. Drew
Sonny and his brother map out a way to get ahead of Drew. Reports tie it to Jenz Sidwell’s holdings going up for sale, and Sonny sounds more than ready for a fight.
Trina and Kai
Trina faces a choice about her music career, and Kai is handed an offer that could pull him in a new direction. Small beats today, but both look built to grow.
Who is Monet on General Hospital?
Monet is an attorney who has just joined Miller & Davis. Executive producer Frank Valentini has said she has an unexpected tie to someone already in town, which is not revealed yet.
The actor, Blythe Howard, makes her daytime debut here. Her primetime credits include Yellowstone, Mindhunter, Walker and Bel-Air. Our honest take: giving her a custody case on day one is a smart way to plug a newcomer straight into the biggest marriage story on the show.
