Welcome to the General Hospital Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:

What Happened on General Hospital

It looks like Dark Michael is officially here and was one step ahead of his bonehead ex-wife and her smarmy boyfriend. There's no doubt that Michael knew exactly what was going to happen. He seemed to be up to something when he visited Willow at Elizabeth's house last week, and as far as we know, he had some time alone until Willow got home. He could have easily planted Edward's gun in Liz's home, knowing the police would go looking there. We can't even feel bad for Willow because she had no problem doing the same thing to Michael with Drew's help. It's just that Willow and Drew hadn't gotten around to it yet. The only issue we have with how Michael handled this is that Willow should not have been arrested in front of her children. We are not sure if Michael timed the whole thing right. How could he have known the cops would get their answer while Willow was having her supervised visit with Wiley and Amelia? If he did know and went along with it, that's pretty ick, Michael. Honestly, Anna could have taken Willow out into the hall and not arrested her until her children were out of sight, but what's done is done. Michael did what he set out to do, which was to make sure that Willow could never have custody of Wiley and Amelia again.
