General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal Nina Reeves Corinthos (Cynthia Watros) has done a better job than anyone expected at breaking ties with ex-hubby Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
Although she lost her best friend, Ava Jerome (Maura West), in the process, she’s putting her best foot forward and trying to forget about losing the man she loved while her bestie pretended to care.
Underneath all of Nina’s hurried work at Crimson and fiery new escapades with Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) lies a burning desire to see to it that Ava gets what’s coming to her. When Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) offers up just that on a plate, will Nina have the nerve to turn down the opportunity to stick it to Ava?
General Hospital Spoilers — Valentin Cassadine Has Pegged His Target
Valentin knew something was amiss as soon as the GH Chief Pharmacist called him claiming he had been paid a visit by Sonny’s wife.
After all, Sonny no longer has a wife. Confirming that Nina wasn’t getting back together with the mob master, and learning of Nina’s new distaste for Ava, Valentin put two and two together — Ava was poking her nose in where it didn’t belong.
Obviously, Valentin can’t have Ava botching his entire plan with Pikeman to take Sonny down.
He’ll have to reel her in somehow, and in the meantime, he just might solidify his place in Nina’s good graces by offering her a leg up in the revenge game.
GH Spoilers – Hint Nina Reeves Learns A Thing Or Two
Nina already knows Ava was playing her when she was pretending to be working on Sonny to score Nina another shot at her marriage.
All the while, Ava was working her own agenda to weasel her way into Sonny’s heart — and bed. But that’s water under the bridge.
Nina knows she can’t undo that, but she can punish Ava for being so deceitful. Ava’s track record with Sonny isn’t good.
In the past, she was guilty of swapping Morgan Corinthos’ (Bryan Craig) Bipolar meds out with placebos — which led to him going off the rails and to his untimely death she hadn’t planned on.
Nina could leverage that history against Ava if Valentin loops her into his plan somehow and makes her aware of what Ava is up to.
Will Nina take the opportunity to pin this on Ava when she knows it’s Valentin pulling Sonny’s strings?
General Hospital Spoilers — The Hard Choice
Nina could do the right thing here. She could tell the truth. She could go to Sonny and tell him everything Valentin is up to — and that he’s working with Pikeman.
But faced with that choice — or with getting revenge on Ava, we don’t have to spend much time mulling over her options to figure out which path Nina will likely choose.
Revenge is always more important to Nina than anything else. So it stands to reason that she won’t opt for keeping Sonny safe if it means forsaking the chance to get Ava back.
Stay tuned for more GH news and spoilers to see how this shakes out.
