General Hospital – Episode 9-26-25
Transcript
00:00I consider myself very, very lucky to have gotten to spend the time that I did with my grandmother over these past few years.
00:12And there's some consolation in knowing that I should never really be gone.
00:18And not as long as we remember her.
00:21So I hope that you all help us in remembering and celebrating the incredible life that she lived
00:28by joining us back at Monica's house.
00:36So, unless there's anyone else who would like to say something.
00:58What the hell is this guy thinking?
01:05He knows.
01:07Talk about inappropriate.
01:08And you were worried about me.
01:15My name is Drew Quartermain, and I am here to honor my mother, Monica.
01:21Allow me to fact-check.
01:28Your name is Drew Quartermain.
01:31You are in no way related to Monica.
01:36And you are in no way invited to this ghetto.
01:39I have every right to be here, Joseph.
01:41You're delusional.
01:42You deny me the family name, that's fine.
01:45But Monica called me her son.
01:47That's what she called me.
01:48I have every right to say goodbye.
01:52You forfeited that right when you broke her heart.
01:55What are you doing, Trace?
01:56What are you doing?
01:57I am escorting you out.
01:59You can stop, Trace.
02:01Oh, no.
02:02I'm just getting started.
02:03Your presence is neither required nor desired.
02:12In fact, it's detested.
02:23Wow.
02:24That felt good.
02:26I guess I'm supposed to say something nice about my sister-in-law.
02:40I don't want to do it.
02:44I have.
02:48I've tried to avoid it.
02:53I just don't know if I can do it.
02:56Okay.
03:02Well, I'm going to try.
03:05Because I know if I don't, I'll, um, I'll regret it.
03:13Because.
03:18Because.
03:18Monica means that much to me.
03:26I don't think so.
03:48I don't think so.
03:50so when i
03:59when i first met monica she was already engaged to my brother alan
04:07my initial thought was she's beautiful it'll never last i assumed my brother would
04:16grow tired of her as he usually did then it would be over just as quickly as it started
04:25she was beneath us she wasn't good enough to marry into the quarter main family much less
04:35carry a quarter main heir but somehow she bamboozled my father my mother and my brother
04:44and it was up to me to make sure that all their eyes were open
04:49but i underestimated monica she was nobody's victim least of all mine and she gave as good as she got
05:04and somewhere between during or because of our epic battles
05:16i grew to respect her in fact that respect
05:24grew to love
05:27in the 45 years that we were family i came to accept
05:35that she was not only good enough
05:39to be one of us
05:41she was the best of us
05:49the quarter main family wouldn't be who we are without her she would do anything for the quarter mains
05:57she took care of us when we lost both my parents and my brother
06:04she's the one that kept their memories alive
06:09it did so much to me
06:15i'm so sorry i never told her maybe i did
06:20i probably
06:22phrased it like an insult
06:25that was our love language
06:33it was how we knew we cared
06:38i never for a moment thought
06:45that i would have to live my life
06:52without her
06:54but i was wrong
06:56again
06:57i do
06:57i am going to have to
07:00i'm gonna have to find my way in this world without her
07:06that won't be easy
07:11my brother made her my sister-in-law
07:17but she became my sister
07:24so my sister
07:32looks like i'm the last one standing
07:37but don't you worry
07:40that house
07:43is yours
07:44alan gave it
07:47to you
07:49and as long as i'm alive
07:54i promise you
07:57it'll stay that way
08:01well that was fast
08:23you changed your mind about going to the ceremony
08:26no i went
08:27briefly it was
08:30yeah tracy kicked me out
08:31or she said she rolled me out
08:34and nobody there tried to stop her
08:36i'm shocked
08:37it's not right martin
08:40it's not right
08:42there was a time
08:43when monica
08:45she loved me
08:47like she really loved me
08:49i'm sure she did
08:50once upon a time
08:52and i loved her too
08:54she was
08:55she was amazing
08:58she was there for me
08:59when i lost oscar
09:00she sat with me here in the hospital
09:02and she held my hand for hours
09:05and
09:06now all of a sudden
09:08that's not supposed to count for anything
09:09like that just gets erased
09:12like it never even happened
09:14no
09:14drew
09:15it happened
09:17along with a lot of other things
09:20since then
09:20okay
09:21so
09:21yeah
09:21now the quarter mains
09:22like
09:23they see me as the enemy
09:25they're angry
09:26the role you played
09:29in what happened
09:30between michael and willow
09:31yeah
09:32i'm angry too
09:33but
09:33the point is
09:34that shouldn't even matter
09:37what do you mean
09:38we shouldn't say
09:38what
09:39because we're all angry
09:39like
09:40are you kidding me right now
09:41the quarter mains
09:42they live for a good fight
09:45and then
09:45then they always come together
09:48in the end
09:49because
09:49because
09:50family
09:51comes first
09:53not always
09:54it didn't happen today
09:56no it didn't
09:58which is the ultimate proof that
09:59that they don't see me as family
10:03so it is
10:05more clear
10:07than it's ever been
10:08that i
10:09i'm not a quarter main
10:14and i never will be

13:07oh yeah she knows
13:09that i'm
13:09i'm good with a serving tray
13:10you uh
13:11you look like it might be a dropper
13:13how you holding up
13:17pretty much how you'd expect
13:20is there any truth to the rumor that uh
13:23lois and tracy were gambling in atlantic city last night
13:26oh i
13:27i don't think that they were gambling
13:30together
13:31i mean
13:31ma said that tracy wasn't doing much
13:35winning
13:35and ma won't put a dime on the table
13:38if the vibe or the math is off
13:40no that's true
13:40look i'm not done being mad at her
13:43but i do have to admit that she really came through for us
13:47yeah i mean i'm not happy with her either
13:50but uh
13:51it's true what they say about the quartermans
13:53they stick together
13:54even if they quite literally
13:55try to kill each other sometimes
13:57they always show up when it really matters
13:59yeah hey
14:00even the ones who uh
14:01don't even like us
14:02i was hoping that geo would come to the service
14:06but i didn't expect him to
14:07no me either
14:08it may be next time he'll say more than hi and bye to us
14:12yeah i don't know
14:13maybe my shields are more worn down with everything that's going on
14:18but geo's anger just hurt more than usual today
14:22like it's just times like these
14:24everything lands a little harder
14:27i just hope i live long enough to
14:30see geo be a little less angry
14:33not just for our sake but for his
14:35we just gotta keep showing up
14:38all right
14:38that's all we can do
14:39yeah
14:40speaking of showing up
14:42tracy's speech
14:43that was incredible
14:44it was perfect
14:45i was so proud of her
14:47yeah
14:47it's interesting
14:49she uh
14:49she reminded me of you
14:51i thought i might find you out here
14:57i saw you greeting people at the church
15:04that must have been a lot
15:07yeah i did it for monica you know
15:12i can't do it again here
15:15i don't blame you
15:19and i think everyone would understand if you wanted to take off
15:23i mean it's tempting
15:26but i need to be here
15:30and there's so many times i wasn't
15:33and i should have been
15:34no that's not true
15:37what that i wasn't here
15:39no
15:40that you weren't present
15:42when i lived here with my dad
15:45i don't think there was a day that went by
15:49that monica didn't mention you
15:51she loved telling stories about you
15:55gave her a lot to choose from
15:58so even though you weren't physically here jason
16:03your presence was felt
16:07your mom made sure of it
16:10monica were close once
16:14and not even the almighty quarterman can take that away from you
16:18right
16:19but michael is the golden boy
16:22always has been
16:23i just
16:25i thought
16:26that monica still loved me enough to get past the whole michael willis situation
16:30maybe if she had more time she would have
16:33with tracy spewing poison in her ear
16:36yeah i doubt that
16:37that the only thing
16:39that has stopped me from going full steam ahead
16:43and telling the police that michael was the one who shot me
16:46was because i wanted to protect monica
16:48but now that she's gone
16:50forget it
16:51like
16:52all bets are off
16:54wait
16:54are you saying now that you remember that it was michael that shot you
16:59i don't remember a damn thing
17:01but the police don't have to know that
17:04i can tell them that it all came back to me at any time
17:08whoa
17:08you just take a deep breath
17:11you know it's possible you don't have to perjure yourself to get revenge
17:15perjuring myself is the least of what i'll do
17:18i will stop
17:19at nothing
17:21to make michael pay for what he's taken from me
17:24and if convincing the cops that he's the one who pulled the trigger
17:26and put two bullets in my back
17:29is the way to do that
17:31so be it
17:34thanks for being here guys
17:36oh
17:36dude are you kidding like
17:38monica opened her home to me and the kids when sam died
17:42and that was
17:44that was everything
17:46and she was great with my mom and leo too
17:48same here
17:50monica welcomed me to the family from day one
17:52she was such a special person
17:55it's just weird you know
17:56like to refer to her in the past tense
17:59it's like you don't think you can get used to that
18:01i still can't really believe that she's gone
18:03wait whatever you need
18:06all right
18:07i'm doing it man
18:08not showing up

25:41kind of relieved to hear there weren't going to be any kids at the service
25:44made him feel less guilty
25:46so that was by design
25:48because i was wondering
25:49yeah well since scout wasn't allowed to go
25:52oh the restraining order
25:54that's right
25:55and jake couldn't be here
25:57so michael and tracy just thought it was best to not include the kids
26:00well they were probably right
26:02with drew crashing the service
26:04but you know even
26:06even if the kids had been there
26:09and seen everything
26:10i don't think it would have mattered
26:11because nothing could dampen her memory in their eyes
26:14the bond she had
26:16with those grandchildren
26:17and great-grandchildren
26:19it was strong
26:20those kids will carry her memory with them
26:23forever
26:24that's her legacy
26:44no hand to god
27:00the elevator doors open
27:01and there is monica
27:03on top of my mother
27:04strangling the life out of her
27:06or at least she's trying to
27:07well tracy is nothing
27:10if not difficult to snuff out
27:12drew
27:12man this family is insane
27:15it is
27:16it is
27:16but we wear it with pride
27:19maybe a little too much pride sometimes
27:21no
27:22never
27:22gotta say i love all these stories
27:27monica had a really full life huh
27:29yeah she remembered everything
27:31and usually when she'd tell you this story
27:33she'd have a picture in her hand
27:35kind of
27:35made you feel like you were there
27:36yeah she told me one recently
27:39never heard it before
27:42mommy could do
27:43well don't leave us in suspense

32:36don't you think you're missing the mark here
32:38tracy's the reason you're not in that church
32:40she insisted you change her name
32:43don't you think that tracy is the quarter main
32:45deserves all this fury
32:47she's gonna get it
32:48she orchestrated my exile
32:50she turned the whole family against me
32:52she deserves
32:53a world of pain
32:56but michael
32:58out destroyed them all
33:00and with one phone call
33:01with one
33:02phone call
33:04i can take them all down
33:05yeah but tracy
33:07only suffers
33:08if the quarter main legacy crumbles
