We triumphantly return!

Charlotte's game of musical parents continues, one of Hayden's dads is invited to town, more clues as to Nelle's parentage, Franco traps Tommy Baker in a dog cage, and we get a few more clues about the identity of The Silky Man!

Julian helps Alexis find a new rock bottom, Valentin and Nina make it official, Curtis and Jason dumpster dive for clues, Lulu finds more clues about Charlotte’s parentage, and we're still waiting for ninjas.

A bonafide Doctor Who reference, banter about Shakespeare, Alexis's ever plummeting rock bottom, and what happens when a Santa costume meets a fur coat.

Thanksgiving is spent getting married, getting evidence, getting drunk, getting blackmailed, getting even, and getting hit by a car.

Griffin and Valentin vie for custody, Alexis blacks out, a lot of talk about a freed rapist, and a mysterious shadowy hand!

The Port Charles Social Experiment introduces new variables, including a deadly pathogen, a paroled rapist, a concerned Aussie, and shady real-estate espionage. Oh, and Sonny brings a gun to the funeral.

Valentin Cassadine arrives in town and tries to charm Nina, offers a job to Alexis, claims paternity of Charlotte, and may be hiding a past association with Ana.

Returning Cassadines, competing investigations, and all of Port Charles tells it like it is about Morgan's death.
