Perkie's Observations: Carly Plots to Usurp Cyrus on General Hospital
On today's General Hospital recap: Nikolas gives the order for his men to take the house where Florence is being kept. Carly realizes that Nikolas has found Florence and calls her men to get her out. Carly and Laura head to Wyndemere (breaking all land speed records apparently) to confront Nikolas.
Nikolas gets the call that his men have taken the house. He learns that Bobbie and some of the Corinthos men have been neutralized. Laura wants Nikolas to shut it down before someone is killed trying to extract Florence.
Nikolas says if he doesn't get Florence, then Alexis will be hurt. Laura says she can speak with the warden and get protection in place (and she hasn't already, why?).
Carly begs Nikolas to stop, claiming it's her only leverage against Cyrus. She tells Nikolas if Cyrus gets his mother back, he'll turn Port Charles into a drug den. Nikolas says he can't risk Alexis' life and tells Carly to have her men release Florence.
Anna pays Jason a visit and notices his bruised knuckles. Jason says he can take care of himself and she's not to blame. Anna explains her plan to help Jason is on hold and he realizes it's because of Peter.
Jason deduces that Peter is threatening someone Anna cares about. She says she's trying to fix things, but her hands are tied. Anna says she needs Jason's help in getting Carly to take a step back before she does something stupid.
Anna says she's going to get as much evidence against Peter to send him to prison. Otherwise, she'll do whatever's necessary, even if it means eliminating Peter.
Hilda wants to mess with Alexis, but Steph and her crew show up to save her. Alexis thanks Steph and is surprised at her cryptic comment that she's being paid to help her.
