Port Charles is bracing for emotional aftershocks on Tuesday, February 10, as General Hospital unleashes an hour driven by fear, fractured loyalty,

and decisions that may permanently reshape the power structure of the city. At the center of it all stands Anna Devane — a decorated hero, a survivor, and now

a woman whose certainty about one terrifying truth could cost her everything. Because Anna is saying the unthinkable again.

Faison is alive.

And every time the words leave her mouth, the temperature in the room drops.’

Anna’s Warning No One Wants to Hear

Anna isn’t floating theories or indulging paranoia, at least not in her mind. She speaks with the conviction of someone who has seen a shadow move and refuses to pretend it didn’t. Faison is out there, she insists. Breathing. Waiting. Watching for the right moment to strike.

To Anna, it’s a tactical reality.

To everyone else, it sounds like the past clawing its way out of a grave.

Felicia Scorpio tries — she truly does. She listens with compassion, nodding at the right places, offering gentle murmurs of understanding. But there’s a strain behind her eyes, the fragile effort of someone attempting to hold up another person’s certainty without collapsing under its weight.

Felicia buried Faison a long time ago. Emotionally, psychologically, spiritually. Now she’s being asked to exhume him for Anna’s sake, and it feels dangerous.

Yet what truly unsettles her is not the claim itself.

It’s Anna’s fear.

You can’t fake fear like that.

A Request That Changes Everything

Anna doesn’t ask for reassurance. She asks for action.

She wants Felicia to go to Jason Morgan.

Warn him.

If Faison is coming, Anna believes the fallout won’t land on her alone. Old enemies will be targeted. Old wars reignited. Jason’s name sits high on that list.

Felicia hesitates. Once Jason is pulled in, events develop momentum. Plans form. Lines are crossed. There’s no gentle way back from that.

But refusing Anna might push her further toward the edge everyone is afraid she’s nearing.

So Felicia agrees.

Jason Listens — and Calculates

When Felicia repeats Anna’s fears, they sound thinner somehow, less convincing in open air. Even she rushes to soften them, suggesting trauma, stress, exhaustion. Maybe Anna is seeing patterns that aren’t really there.

Jason listens the way he always does — still, focused, absorbing.

He doesn’t dismiss Anna outright. He never dismisses danger, no matter how improbable. But he weighs it against another possibility: that his friend is unraveling.

Then Felicia says the word no one wants to say.

Help.

Professional help. Somewhere safe. Somewhere supervised.

Jason’s jaw tightens. Containing someone for their own protection has never sat easily with him. It feels like surrender disguised as mercy.

But if Anna can’t trust her own perceptions, what happens to the people depending on her judgment?

The Mayor Steps In

Across town, Laura Collins is done whispering.

She convenes a closed-door meeting with Mac, Felicia, and Dante — and the gravity is unmistakable. This isn’t gossip. This is governance. Liability. Responsibility.

Laura is terrified for her friend.

But she is also mayor.

If Anna’s mental state is deteriorating, every decision she’s made could be challenged. Investigations reopened. Criminals released. The city thrown into chaos.

The word suspension isn’t formally spoken, but it breathes in the space between them.

Laura presents the only solution she believes might stabilize things.

Dante.

An Heir Apparent Who Never Asked

Dante Falconeri is steady. Experienced. Respected.

And horrified.

Anna mentored him. Believed in him. Pushed him to lead. Now he’s being asked to step into her job while she is still standing in it.

They call it temporary.

Soap fans know what that can mean.

Dante doesn’t feel triumphant. He feels like a man being handed a crown carved from guilt.

Anna Learns the Truth

No one tells Anna directly.

She senses it.

A glance held too long. A conversation cut short. The subtle shift in how people stand around her, as if she might break.

When she demands answers, they come in fragments: concerns, evaluations, stepping aside.

She laughs at first — sharp, incredulous. They’re wrong, she insists. She is the only one seeing clearly.

When hospitalization is mentioned, betrayal detonates.

Felicia reaches for her, speaking of love, of worry.

But Anna hears pity.

And pity is unbearable.

Jason watches, helpless. There is no enemy to punch, no threat to neutralize. This battle is internal, intimate, devastating.

Whether Faison is alive almost stops mattering.

The belief already has consequences.

Meanwhile, Trouble Brews Elsewhere

While Anna’s world narrows, other fault lines are spreading across Port Charles.

Lucy Coe is reeling after her clash with Ava Jerome, painfully aware she may be losing her grip on Sidwell. What hurts most is not confrontation — it’s silence. The man hasn’t called.

Ava, meanwhile, is unapologetic. Sidwell offers influence, protection, perhaps leverage in the fight for her daughter. In Port Charles, practicality often wins over romance.

Sidwell may think he’s choosing freely.

But Ava has always been very good at arranging the options.

Carly and Valentin Steal a Moment

Elsewhere, Carly Corinthos and Valentin Cassadine try to carve out a pocket of happiness, joking about Valentine’s Day, pretending looming threats can be postponed by desire alone.

Brennan’s name hangs between them, a reminder that danger never sleeps for long.

So they drink. They flirt.

They live anyway.

A City on the Brink

By episode’s end, the lines are drawn.

Anna stands increasingly alone, fighting a menace no one else can see.

Dante is being pushed toward power he doesn’t want.

Felicia is torn between loyalty and fear.

Jason is calculating the cost of every outcome.

And somewhere, in memory or reality, Faison wins simply by being spoken.

Because monsters don’t always need a pulse to destroy lives.

Tuesday’s episode promises heartbreak, political upheaval, and a painful question with no safe answer:

What if Anna is right?

And what if she isn’t?
