General Hospital (GH) spoilers for Thursday, January 18 indicate some shocking drama is about to unfold in Port Charles. First off, it seems as if Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) will be on the offensive and prepared for a face-off.

With this week’s GH preview suggesting that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) will tell Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) about the fact that her son knew about the SEC secret for a while now, but didn’t say anything, Michael may be gearing up for his mother’s meltdown.

Will Carly understand why Michael didn’t tell her that Nina was SEC’s informant? Fans will have to tune in to find out!

Across town, GH spoilers for Thursday, January 18 suggest that Esme Prince (Avery Pohl) will be scrambling and turn to someone very unexpected for help.

Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss) took Ace Cassadine (Jay and Joey Clay) during Tuesday’s show, so Esme’s bound to learn what happened by the time Thursday rolls around and she’ll be in an absolute panic.

Not to mention the fact that Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) may call her out about remembering everything and lying about it.

Who will Esme turn to for help? If it’s someone unexpected, it could be that she reaches out to Ava Jerome (Maura West), although everyone knows that Ava wouldn’t do anything to help (including Esme).

Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) once offered his assistance to her, “anytime” she needed it. Will she reach out to him?

In other interesting news, it looks like Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) will have a little bonding session as they find themselves in each other’s orbit.

Perhaps they stumbled across each other at the Metro Court bar or somewhere else?

Regardless, they chat about their respective woes, and they might find they have more in common than they realize.

This makes for an interesting scene as these two have never really mingled before.

Anna is now single, and Drew could be soon as GH spoilers hint that he and Carly will have issues as the days and weeks go by.

Could Anna and Drew become the newest Port Charles super couple?

Meanwhile, as the show rolls on, TJ Ashford (Tajh Bellow) will give his mom, Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) an update.

She may be wondering how Curtis Ashford’s (Donnell Turner) surgery went, and her son will likely provide her with the good news that there were no complications.

Lastly, Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) will get an unexpected visitor.

GH fans haven’t seen much of her and Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez), so perhaps her singer girlfriend was out of town on some business and has returned a bit early to surprise her!

General Hospital spoilers state that Thursday’s show will offer some stunning moments and plenty of drama, so fans won’t want to miss it.
