General Hospital Recap: Natalia Dies
General Hospital Recap: Natalia Dies originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's General Hospital recap: Jason tells Sonny the plane is ready, but Natalia hasn't shown up yet. Jason then gets a call and tells Sonny about the fire at Charlie's. Chase comes knocking on Natalia's door and is joined by Anna who find her passed out on the couch. Natalia is taken to the hospital where Liz and Isaiah work on her, but she dies. Chase and Anna go through Natalia's room. Chase mentions seeing the guard at the door, walking away. Anna knows they need to find out who the guard was. Kristina tries to put out the fire with an extinguisher, then decides to stand there and watch it burn. Marco breaks down the door, runs in and helps her out the back door. Dante gets to the scene and Kristina says someone tried to kill her. Molly gets to the mansion at the tail end of the celebration then gets a call about the fire at Charlie's. Cody offers to drive her there. Molly is upset and ranting about the worst case scenario but Cody tells her to wait and see what the situation is. Alexis meets with Sidwell and reminds him that despite Marco being his lead attorney, nothing gets filed until she gives the okay. Jenz assures her everything is aboveboard and thinks she doesn't trust Marco. Molly calls Alexis and tells her about the fire. Josslyn gets home to find Lucas cleaning up from his dinner with Marco. She tells Lucas Natalia showed up at the church. Liz calls Lucas, who heads to the hospital. He wonders why Marco isn't there and where he is. Sonny and Jason get to the scene and Sonny's not happy to see Marco is there. Kristina tells them Marco saved her life and explains to Dante what happened. Marco remembers his mother and wants to leave, but Sonny refuses. Jack stops by to talk to Josslyn about their plans with Dalton. Josslyn wonders if he's really there to see Carly, but Jack reminds her that he's her superior and to mind her beeswax. Carly arrives and tells Jack about the fire at Charlie's and how it brought her back to Michael's accident. Jack says she's experiencing PTSD, and she's grateful he understands what she's feeling. Carly blames Sonny and doesn't know what she would do if she lost Donna. Chase and Anna head to the hospital and question Lucas, who tells them about Natalia's drunk texts and Marco leaving to check on her. Anna wants an autopsy done right away to determine the cause of death, but Lucas says they have to wait for Marco. Dante calls Anna to update her about the fire and tells her Marco is at Charlie's and saved Kristina. Molly and Alexis get to the scene, grateful to find Kristina alive. Alexis blames Sonny and screams at him. Sonny tries to defend himself but she's not listening. Kristina defuses it, asking her mother to go with her to the hospital to be checked out. Michael remembers getting caught in the fire at Sonny's. He gets a text and tells Sasha that Kristina will be okay. Michael mentions he's still taking pain pills, and she's surprised he's still experiencing pain. Michael says he has residual nerve damage but it's better than the treatments right after the fire. Sasha brings up how Michael asked for her when he was in the hospital, and he says he wanted to tell her to take care of the baby. Michael is determined to make sure his kids stay safe and won't be like Sonny. He promises her nothing like that fire will happen to his kids. Marco gets to the hospital and insists on seeing his mother. Sidwell makes a call to berate them for setting the fire while someone was inside. Sonny tells Jason they need to find out who set the fire. Jason points out Kristina was not supposed to be at work, but was called in. The firefighter updates Dante the fire was arson. (*To my fellow Canadians, Happy Canada Day!! For the American posters, Happy Tuesday!!) Keep checking back for the latest General Hospital recaps!
