General Hospital July 1 Episode Recap: Did Kristina Survive the Firebomb at Charlie's Pub?
Marco, who is on the way to meet his mother, spots fire and runs to help. With only a blanket to keep out the smoke, he gets himself and Kristina out of the pub from the back door.
Suffering minor burns, the duo set themselves free from the flames, but the visuals were enough to give Michael a recollection of his PTSD. Worried, he recalls how he was trapped in fire at Sonny's Penthouse and also reveals to Sasha that he needs his medications once in a while.
Is Natalia dead?
Chase and Anna make it into Natalia's room, only to find her unresponsive. Chase finds an empty bottle of pills and alcohol remains. Natalia is rushed to the General Hospital and declared dead.
Meanwhile, Marco, too, arrived to be checked out for his burns, where he is confronted about his mother by Chase and Anna. Shocked at the news, Marco runs to the hospital room, only to find Natalia deceased.
At Charlie's, while no one was dead or intensely burned, Sidwell was furious after learning that Kristina was present when the fire started to spread out. He calls someone and reprimands them, saying that the firebomb was to be thrown only when the pub was empty.
With Sidwell being behind the fire at the pub, there is a high chance that he lit Sonny's penthouse too, with Michael being trapped.

Why General Hospital Won't Air a New Episode on July 4 and What ABC Will Broadcast Instead
ABC has confirmed that General Hospital fans won't see a new episode on Friday, July 4, 2025. The long-running daytime soap is taking a short break for the Independence Day holiday. Instead of airing a fresh installment, the network will broadcast an encore episode to keep its holiday tradition alive. Holiday preemption for General Hospital The network follows this schedule every year. On major U.S. holidays like July 4, General Hospital usually takes a pause. ABC plans the break because viewership often drops during national holidays when people travel or spend time outdoors. As in previous years, the soap will air a rerun to fill the slot. This year's repeat episode originally aired on November 24, 2024. New episodes will return on Monday, July 7, 2025, in the show's usual time slot, 1:00 PM Central / 2:00 PM Eastern. Here's the encore episode ABC will air instead The episode airing on July 4 has some memorable moments. In the repeat, Kristina Corinthos-Davis breaks down in court. Lulu Spencer shares an intense scene with her son, Rocco Falconeri. Meanwhile, Lucky Spencer and Elizabeth Baldwin confront Cyrus Renault. Maxie Jones supports Sasha Corbin during a tough moment. Damian Spinelli is left shocked by new developments, adding to the drama that day. One major storyline focuses on Rocco Falconeri discovering a big secret. He finds papers on Brook Lynn Quartermaine's desk and learns details about his birth. In the episode, Rocco asks his mother, 'You didn't give birth to me, she did?' This line changes everything for Rocco as he learns about Britt Westbourne's role as an unknowing surrogate. The encore also shows Brook Lynn facing Cody Bell. She admits, someone "has to be the bigger person." Brook Lynn had once used Rocco's birth records to get back at Lulu, but did not expect Rocco to find them. Josslyn Jacks is also part of the repeat. She ends things with Vaughn, her WSB handler. In the scene, she says, 'This isn't working, we're done.' Their breakup happens near a location decorated for the Fourth of July, adding to the holiday vibe. When will General Hospital return with new episodes? This short holiday break only affects Friday's episode. General Hospital will pick up again on Monday, July 7, 2025. According to upcoming storylines include the fallout from Kristina's fire rescue, Natalia's overdose, and more courtroom drama in Port Charles.

Why General Hospital is taking a break on July 4 — no new episode this Friday; here's what ABC has planned for the holiday instead
General Hospital will not broadcast a new episode on Friday, July 4, 2025. ABC has confirmed that the soap will follow its usual holiday pattern by airing an encore episode instead. As with previous years, the network is preempting the daily drama to accommodate the Independence Day holiday and potentially reduced viewership. The episode that will air in place of the new one is a rerun from November 24, 2024, featuring major moments involving several key characters. New episodes will return to ABC starting Monday, July 7, 2025. What episode will air on July 4? The encore episode set to air this Friday is from November 24, 2024. In this episode, Kristina Corinthos-Davis has a courtroom breakdown, while Lulu Spencer has a tense face-to-face with her son, Rocco Falconeri. Meanwhile, Lucky Spencer and Elizabeth Baldwin confront Cyrus Renault, and Maxie Jones provides support to Sasha Corbin. The episode also includes a moment where Damian Spinelli is left surprised by unfolding events, contributing to the overall intensity of that day's storyline. Kai's proximity to Drew and the Quartermaines makes Trina extremely uncomfortable. Can she talk some sense into him?Tune in to a tense, new #GH - STARTING NOW on ABC! @iamaliford Rocco's discovery and confrontation A key storyline in the rerun focuses on Rocco Falconeri, who demands answers after discovering information left on Brook Lynn Quartermaine's desk. Rocco learns about the circumstances of his birth and questions his mother, Lulu Spencer, after finding out about Britt Westbourne's role as an unknowing surrogate. Rocco is left confused and shocked when he asks Lulu directly, 'You didn't give birth to me, she did?' This marks a turning point in his understanding of his origins, something neither Lulu nor Dante Falconeri had told him before she fell into a five-year coma. Brook Lynn, Cody, and unintended consequences The episode also touches on Brook Lynn's interaction with Cody Bell, where she admits someone 'has to be the bigger person.' She appears to be reflecting on her past conflict with Lulu and possibly acknowledging her own role in escalating tensions. Earlier, Brook Lynn had attempted to use Rocco's birth records as a form of revenge, not realizing that Rocco would eventually find them on her desk. Her decision not to tell him earlier backfires, as Maxie had previously pointed out that she hesitated when the moment came. Josslyn ends things with Vaughn The episode further features Josslyn Jacks, who is seen losing her temper with Vaughn, her WSB handler and a potential romantic interest. Despite their earlier closeness, Josslyn ends the relationship abruptly, telling Vaughn, 'This isn't working, we're done.' The conversation takes place near a location decorated for Independence Day, underlining the holiday setting. Why ABC made the change The decision to air a repeat episode is not new for the network. ABC has traditionally preempted General Hospital on national holidays like July 4, in line with viewer habits and programming adjustments. For instance, a repeat episode also aired on July 4, 2024. This year's preemption affects only one day—Friday, July 4. New episodes and ongoing storylines will resume as usual on Monday, July 7. According to upcoming developments will include the aftermath of Kristina's fire rescue and Natalia's overdose, along with courtroom drama and rising tensions across Port Charles. When to tune in again General Hospital will return with fresh episodes on Monday, July 7, 2025, in its regular slot—1:00 PM Central / 2:00 PM Eastern on ABC. Viewers can expect the ongoing plot to pick up from where it left off before the holiday break.
