In the upcoming episode, the tension in Port Charles reaches a boiling point.

When the question “It can’t be true — are you positive?” is asked, it sets off a chain reaction of denials, desperate hope, and truths that might be hard to accept.

The focus turns to a discovery someone has made—something that disrupts the narrative everyone thought was settled.

Perhaps new evidence slips through that undermines a suspect’s alibi, or a trusted friend admits knowledge of something they’d sworn to keep secret. The doubt cast by “are you positive?” suggests this revelation colors everything: from loyalties to identity.

Jason Morgan is likely one of those confronted with disbelief. Having believed a lie—or trusted someone’s assurances—he may now be forced to face a possibility he never imagined. For Jason, this revelation could hit where it hurts most: in the sense of betrayal, or knowing he may have misjudged someone close to him.

Meanwhile, Molly Lansing-Davis could find herself in the difficult spot of confirming or denying rumors about Cody or Outback—something she hoped would stay buried. Her secret-keeping makes her both powerful and vulnerable, and hearing that voice of “are you positive?” could pressure her into revealing more than she planned.

Liesl or Britt may also be involved. Suppose Britt is asked this question about her return or her “fake death” narrative—could there be another layer to what she told Port Charles? Liesl’s reaction could range from deflection to emotional collapse if faced with a challenge to what she had claimed.

On the investigative side, Anna Devane and Dante might be gathering proof—photos, testimonies, or documents—that force someone to admit something long denied. A witness may step forward with contradicting details, or a piece of physical evidence could be revealed that doesn’t match the accepted timeline.

By the end of the episode, silence is no longer an option. “It can’t be true” will become something characters must respond to—either by admitting, denying, or trying to shut down the possibility altogether. The cost of doing so will be steep: trust will be undermined, connections strained, and relationships altered irrevocably.
