General Hospital The Rinse January 9: Alexis Makes A Shocking Play Against Michael

Alexis is pulling out all the stops at Willow’s trial in order to exonerate her, even if it means bluffing to a witness during the January 9, 2025 episode of General Hospital.

• Alexis bluffed about evidence in order to get Tracy to admit she saw Michael.
• Michael asserted he did not shoot Drew.
• Trina and Kai remembered hearing a specific ringtone in Drew’s house that night.

Did Michael Shoot Drew?

Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is still banging out witnesses to send to the stand, and after getting Jacinda (Paige Herschell) to admit she was with Ezra (Daniel Cosgrove) at the time of the shooting, she re-called Tracy (Jane Elliot).

With a folder in her hand titled “Personal Home Security Footage – Crestview Lane,” Alexis asked Tracy if she had seen Michael on Drew’s (Cameron Mathison) street that night.

The second Tracy spotted the folder, she knew the jig was up. She was forced to admit that she had seen Michael, and that was all Alexis needed.

Tracy was free to go, while it was Michael’s turn to take the stand, where he kept his cool despite Alexis’ badgering about his hate for Drew.

But it was one small detail Michael shared that sparked something for Trina (Tabyana Ali) and Kai (Jens Austin Astrup): getting a call from Wiley (Viron Weaver), who he has a special ringtone for. That sent Trina and Kai straight back to that night, when they heard a strange song after hearing the gunshots.

Tracy’s Realization

Meanwhile, Tracy went to Lulu’s (Alexa Havins) to vent about the trial. After explaining what she knew about that night, then how Alexis had video footage, Lulu asked if Alexis made Tracy identity Michael in the footage.

When Tracy told her Alexis never even showed it, Lulu wondered why Alexis would have proof that she didn’t enter into evidence, and Tracy realized she had been played.

Now that Tracy admitted to seeing Michael on Crestview Lane and Trina and Kai remember hearing what they think was Wiley’s ringtone, Michael’s assertion that he did not shoot Drew is unravelling at the seams, and will only get worse when he’s left taken aback in court according to General Hospital spoilers for January 9.
