General Hospital Friday, October 23 Update: Fast-Track Divorce, Drew’s Wild News, Hudson’s Meltdown

General Hospital (GH) update for Friday, October 23, indicates that Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) will get some alarming news and speak his mind.

Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will also have an enticing proposition for someone to consider.

GH fans will see Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) get spooked as well, so there’ll be a lot happening on Friday’s show.

Now that Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) and Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard) have gone off the rails at the legal meeting, Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) is fed up.

It looks like Brook Lynn will plead with Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) to go back to their original goal of splitting up amicably for Phoebe Chase’s (Luna and Lucia Creighton) sake.

Chase should be on board with that plan, but what happens once a document is presented that would finalize their divorce?

Brook Lynn and Chase will apparently be given an option to fast-track the process, but do they truly want to end their marriage?

As for Monet, it looks like she’ll question Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) about Drew and his thoughts on Lulu Spencer’s (Alexa Havins Bruening) claims.

However, Drew may speak for himself soon enough by denouncing Lulu’s article publicly.

That could leave Lulu fearing the worst when it comes to the lawsuit drama she’s currently facing.

At GH, Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) and Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) will put their heads together on a mystery.

Whether this is about Britt Westbourne’s (Kelly Thiebaud) sudden change or something else, Dante will bond with Liz as they mull it over.

Back with Drew, he’ll be thrown for a loop when Ava Jerome (Maura West) says they have to move Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) body.

Drew may ask if Ava has lost her mind and contend that digging up Brennan’s corpse is the worst possible thing they could do.

This will be an outrageous plan as far as Drew’s concerned, but Ava will think it’s the right call.

Now that Joe Fitzpatrick (Jonathan Bennett) could be getting too close to the truth, Ava will get panicky and want to find a better hiding spot.

Across town, Hudson will have a meltdown in front of Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy).

There’s a chance Hudson might spot the listening device Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) placed in his briefcase, so he could assume Sonny is monitoring him.

Then again, maybe Sonny will simply summon Hudson for a tense conversation.

Either way, it looks like Hudson will meet with Sonny and try to figure out what his agenda is now that Josslyn’s struck the first blow.

Sonny will extend a tempting offer on Friday’s episode, but Hudson may refuse to be swayed by bribery or vague threats.

If Sonny really wants rid of Hudson, he may have to think bigger and get more creative.

After Sonny sends Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) to gather more information from Josslyn, they’ll have a tense discussion of their own.

Jason will apparently ask Josslyn if she framed Sonny for the recent prison mess, but Joss won’t take any responsibility for that.

Instead, Josslyn may push Jason to accept that Sonny is guilty since that’s what she believes.
