Port Charles is a tinderbox this week as tensions flare and alliances shift.

Carly Spencer, stung by new revelations, refuses to sit quietly — she presses Josslyn for answers about her hidden life with the WSB, not satisfied with partial truths.

She warns her daughter that no lie can last forever, and Carly makes it clear she’ll stop at nothing to uncover what’s really going on behind closed doors.

Meanwhile, Britt Westbourne steps into the fray in her own way.

Burdened by the weight of Nina’s legal predicament and the whispers around her brother Nathan’s return, Britt turns to someone she trusts — and asks for a favor.

It’s unclear what she needs, but any request from Britt comes with strings attached, and nobody expects it to be clean. Could this be the moment she draws others — maybe even Jason — into her orbit again?

Against this backdrop, Nathan West is not idle. He tracks down Dante Falconeri to press him with uncomfortable questions about Nina’s alibi, Willow’s involvement, and the hidden forces pulling strings behind the shooting. Nathan’s tone is insistent, almost accusing — he wants answers, and he wants them now. Dante, burdened by what he knows and what he’s kept secret, is pushed into a corner.

Meanwhile, Anna Devane is ramping up her investigation. She corners Jack Brennan, hoping to force him to choose sides in the battle over Faison’s legacy. Tensions crackle as allegiances wobble — Carly is digging, Britt is maneuvering, Nathan is demanding, and Anna is trying to sew together enough light to illuminate the darkness.

By the end of the episode, nobody’s safe. Secrets threaten to burst. Trust crumbles. And Port Charles watches, waiting to see who will be left standing when the lies fall.
