Basic Hospital sees Ava Jerome (Maura West) reveling in her newfound wealth because of blackmail. Soiled, soiled blackmail. She was broke. Her funds had been a wreck. And now she’s residing giant. However everyone knows Ava’s days of blackmailing Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) will come to an finish. And it seems like a lot sooner relatively than later. We’re going to speak about how Ava’s terrible blackmail scheme ends. I’ve little question she goes to lose her leverage. And her money move goes to finish abruptly. These cash issues could come crashing again down round her ears.
Basic Hospital: Ric and Ava’s Greed
So, proper now, each Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) and Ava are being fairly grasping, cashing in on the blackmail from Alexis. Because of Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi)’s brake line reducing homicide plot, Ava went from monetary disaster to a gentle move of money that Alexis is embezzling from the Cassadine property.
Ava thinks she’s golden. She thinks that is going to simply be this limitless stream of cash. But it surely seems like her days of blackmailing Alexis are practically over. I imply, let’s be actual, she couldn’t get away with it without end. So, now we have just a few concepts based mostly on latest episodes on how this blackmail scheme of hers goes to explode in her face very quickly.
Spinelli Investigates: Uncovering the Reality About Ric’s SUV in GH Blackmail Plot
So, clearly, the primary manner that Ava could lose her leverage over Alexis could possibly be because of our favourite grasp hacker, Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson). Alexis met with the Jackal this week as a result of she employed him as her non-public investigator.
After all, he’s thrilled and can do something to assist Alexis as a result of she’s Sam McCall’s (Kelly Monaco) mother. Spinelli and Sam had been besties, did their PI factor collectively, and Alexis instructed Spinelli what she needs him to do may save Kristina.
Then we noticed Alexis ask Spinelli to search out Ric’s SUV that was totaled within the crash. And Spinelli didn’t assume that might be onerous, however he’s questioning why Alexis is even asking about this.
Basic Hospital: Spinelli Searches
Alexis would relatively not say, however he went forward. Spinelli began looking, and it didn’t take him very lengthy in any respect to kind it out. Ric’s automotive was supposedly destroyed, however Alexis knew that wasn’t true and she or he instructed Spinelli, “Maintain digging.”
So, he went into the police impound issues and Alexis requested him, , go see if there’s a tow truck that may have come to the lot. And certain sufficient, he discovered three tow vans that left and just one went someplace unusual. That was to a storage facility and Ava had rented a unit there. So, yeah, they hit pay filth.
Destroying Proof: Can Alexis, Spinelli, and Jason Finish the GH Blackmail?
So, now that Alexis is aware of the place the SUV is, she’s probably going to attempt to have it destroyed as a result of Kristina’s fingerprints are throughout it on the brake traces particularly. Now, I’m not sure if Alexis will ask Spinelli to maintain destroying it, however Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) is somebody that Alexis may ask.
As a result of Jason is nice at making every kind of issues disappear, together with folks, . And naturally, Jason wouldn’t hesitate to assist Alexis and Kristina. And naturally, Jason’s all about defending Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) members of the family, and he doesn’t like Ava in any respect.
However would having Ric’s SUV smashed to smithereens and the items burned to remove Kristina’s fingerprints resolve the entire blackmail drawback? Possibly, however possibly not. Don’t overlook, there’s nonetheless that footage Ava has of Kristina rifling by means of the software bin within the storage after which creeping round Ric’s SUV.
However from what we noticed the video, it doesn’t really present Kristina tampering with the brakes. However nonetheless, Alexis must do away with that video. That will be sure there are not any unfastened ends left to tie Ric’s accident again to Kristina and even suggest that she may need had a hand in it.
Basic Hospital: Will Alexis Go for the Footage?
So, that could be the subsequent mission Alexis has for Spinelli to delete the footage from Ava’s cellphone, from the constructing safety system, and any cloud backups that Ava may need. So, Alexis could ask Spinelli to additionally hack Ric’s cellphone in case Ava despatched the video to him as a backup. And , to date, Alexis hasn’t instructed Spinelli the precise nature of the issue she’s making an attempt to repair.
She is skirting across the sensitive topic of how it will assist Kristina, however , Spinelli’s no fan of Ava‘s, and he would probably be cool with serving to Alexis even when it crossed authorized traces. And this type of stuff is little one’s play for Spinelli. He may simply hack Ava and Ric’s telephones and the constructing safety system and wipe out that footage. So, if there’s no video and no bodily proof, meaning no extra blackmail and Alexis may inform Ric and Ava to kick rocks.
Kristina’s Alternative: Accountability Might Finish the GH Blackmail Scheme
Nevertheless, there’s nonetheless yet another possibility if that doesn’t work out that might cease Ava from blackmailing Alexis and forcing her to steal from little Ace Cassadine’s (Jay and Joey Clay) inheritance. Think about if Kristina really accepted accountability and confronted penalties for her actions when she tried to kill Ava.
She may shut this down. There’s an opportunity that Kristina could come clear and switch herself in. Or higher but, do what Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennesy) advised to Alexis, verify herself into Shadybrook, after which have Diane work on a plea cope with the DA’s workplace.
As a result of very quickly Fortunate Spencer (Jonathan Jackson) goes to do some poking round as a result of Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) instructed him concerning the reminiscence she recovered of the crash and it contradicts what Ric stated. Liz stated through the crash, proper in the beginning occurred, Ric stated the brakes weren’t working. However when she instructed Ric about her reminiscence, he stated, “No, no, it was black ice.”
And Fortunate seemed slightly unsettled when he was listening to what Liz stated due to course he is aware of Kristina lower the brakes and he could surprise why Ric isn’t being trustworthy with Liz. And naturally, Ric instructed Liz simply let it go.
Basic Hospital: Fortunate’s Getting Shut
And naturally he needs her to let it go as a result of he’s cashing in alongside with Ava on this blackmail scheme. Ric’s acquired a brand new sports activities automotive which could ship Fortunate’s Spidey senses tingling simply on the timing.

And like Spinelli, Fortunate could discover out that Ric’s automotive was taken to a storage facility. This week, Fortunate will get in entrance of Alexis and he asks her why Ric is mendacity. As a result of Fortunate is aware of what Kristina did. And if he is aware of Ric is mendacity and Alexis lies to his face, Fortunate could do the mathematics and work out what’s occurring.
And if Alexis comes clear to Fortunate and tells him Ava and Ric are blackmailing her as a result of they know Kristina lower the brake traces, properly, Fortunate could go and he could inform Kristina, “ what? For this reason Alexis was making an attempt to have you ever dedicated. She was making an attempt to avoid wasting your butt, making an attempt to maintain you out of jail.”
After which Kristina may really feel responsible, not just for her mother being blackmailed, however for a way onerous she’s been on Alexis over these dedication papers that Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) dropped at her.
Basic Hospital: Kristina Goes to the Psychiatric Hospital
And that could possibly be what triggers Kristina to move to the psychiatric hospital. Verify in, get slightly remedy, let Diane work with the DA and put an finish to the blackmail and get her some sweetheart deal. The underside line is Ava and Ric’s free trip on the Cassadine money practice is about to come back to an abrupt finish. And I’m betting it’d hit by the top of sweeps, which for those who didn’t know is Could twenty first.
So the large query is, is Kristina going to maintain this? Or as soon as once more, is Alexis going to scrub up her mess with Spinell’s assist? Possibly with Jason’s assist. Diane retains telling her, Molly retains telling her, Ric retains telling her that Alexis cleansing up behind Kristina isn’t doing her any favors. And possibly Kristina will see that and step up and do the suitable factor. We’ll see. But it surely seems prefer it’s all going to explode subsequent week.
