General Hospital Spoilers Preview: Friday, February 6, 2026 — Willow’s Trap Tightens as Michael Faces a Nightmare He Can’t See Coming

Port Charles is heading into Friday’s episode with the kind of tension that doesn’t feel like drama anymore—it feels like inevitability. General Hospital spoilers for Friday, February 6, 2026, tease that Willow’s most dangerous move is no longer a theory whispered in hospital hallways. It’s already in motion. And the cruelest part? Michael may be carrying the very evidence meant to destroy him—without even knowing it.

At the center of this storm is a single, ordinary object turned into a weapon: the key to Drew’s room. If the key has truly ended up on Michael’s keyring—quietly planted, carefully positioned—then Willow isn’t just fighting for custody. She’s building a narrative designed to survive police scrutiny, courtroom pressure, and public opinion. Every tear she sheds, every “reasonable” compromise she offers, every soft-spoken reference to the children is starting to feel like stagecraft. Willow isn’t negotiating anymore. She’s arranging the board.

And while Michael is bracing for a legal war, he may not realize Willow is setting him up for something worse than losing time with Wiley and Amelia. If Drew suffers another crisis—if he deteriorates at the wrong moment, behind the wrong locked door—Michael could be framed with brutal efficiency: motive, access, opportunity… and a key that tells the story for her.

Curtis Seeks Alexis — But His Heart Keeps Steering the Wheel
Across town, another kind of crisis unfolds—one built on hurt, pride, and unresolved intimacy. Curtis heads straight to Alexis, not to explode, but to ask for legal direction as his tension with Portia reaches a breaking point. He admits he’s been pushing hard for a DNA test, convinced the truth has to come out. But Alexis doesn’t just hear a client seeking clarity—she hears a man who’s still emotionally tethered to the very conflict he claims he wants to end.

Her advice is firm, cautious, and laced with warning: forcing the issue could backfire. Pressuring Portia could deepen the divide, ignite a legal mess, and create consequences Curtis can’t walk back. Alexis urges patience, timing, and strategy—letting events unfold instead of trying to control them.

But Curtis leaves with legal guidance, not emotional peace. Because the truth Alexis doesn’t say out loud is the one hanging between them: Curtis may call it “closure,” but his anger reads like heartbreak. And heartbreak has a way of pulling people toward familiar comfort—especially when that comfort comes in the form of Jordan.

Curtis and Jordan — Comfort That Could Turn Into Escape
Spoilers suggest Curtis seeks Jordan out, and with her, the mask falls. He doesn’t need to explain the betrayal, the confusion, the ache of not knowing what’s real anymore. Jordan already understands him in the way only shared history can.

Their conversation begins like release—pressure spilling out after days of restraint. But the closeness is charged, unresolved, and dangerously easy. If Curtis and Jordan cross that line again, it won’t be framed as romance. It’ll be framed as escape—two people reaching for something familiar because everything else feels unstable.

And if that happens, it won’t stay contained. In Port Charles, nothing like this ever does.

 

Willow’s “40%” Offer — A Compromise or a Smokescreen?
Meanwhile, Willow sits across from Michael and calmly agrees to a 40% custody arrangement. On the surface, it looks like progress. She appears reasonable, even selfless—like she’s willing to accept less just to keep peace for the kids. But Michael doesn’t relax. He hears the words, yet something in the delivery doesn’t feel like surrender. It feels like positioning.

He takes the proposal to Sonny and Carly, hoping for perspective. Sonny, pragmatic as ever, sees the logic: 40% is still meaningful, and avoiding a brutal courtroom battle could spare Wiley and Amelia more trauma. He urges Michael to consider stability over pride.

But Carly reads Willow with a different kind of instinct—one built on years of surviving people who smile while sharpening knives. Carly doesn’t trust Willow’s sudden flexibility. Not after the manipulation, the lies, the emotional whiplash. She senses what Michael is only beginning to fear: this isn’t compromise. It’s strategy.

Because the custody percentage may no longer be the real battlefield.

If Willow’s planted-key scheme is real, then whether Michael signs the agreement could become irrelevant the moment the police decide he looks guilty. A custody fight is one thing. A wrongful conviction is another. And Willow’s plan—if it reaches its final phase—could make her look like the grieving, devoted mother forced to protect her children while their father faces charges.

The narrative writes itself. And Willow knows it.

Kai and Trina Start Connecting Dots — And That Makes Them Dangerous
Not everyone is asleep at the wheel, though. Kai—young, underestimated, and increasingly alert—begins noticing inconsistencies that won’t settle in his gut. The timing of Drew’s condition. Willow’s emotional performances. The way her mood shifts depending on how custody talks go. The way everything seems staged, like she’s always a step ahead of the reaction she claims to fear.

Kai shares his suspicions with Trina, and once the possibility is spoken aloud—once it becomes real—their focus sharpens. What if Willow wasn’t just present for Drew’s medical crisis? What if she engineered it?

Kai doesn’t stop at theory. He watches. He tracks behavior. He listens harder. And if he stumbles onto proof—if he connects Willow to the key, to Drew’s access, to a deliberate attempt to frame Michael—he could become the one person standing between Michael and disaster.

The bigger question is whether Kai can prove it in time.

Liz Offers Help — And Walks Right Past the Danger
In a parallel thread, Elizabeth steps in with genuine compassion—completely unaware of how close she is to the edge of a trap. Wanting Drew to heal in a more personal environment, Liz offers to move him into her home, believing stability and consistent care could make a real difference.

Willow refuses immediately—but carefully. Softly. Like devotion. She insists she needs to be the one by Drew’s side. She presents it as love, responsibility, commitment.

But spoilers hint the truth is far darker: it’s control.

If Drew leaves the hospital environment—or leaves Willow’s orbit—Willow loses oversight. She loses access. She loses the ability to manage the narrative and the timing. Liz walks away thinking Willow is a dedicated partner. She doesn’t realize she just brushed up against someone who may be orchestrating the most dangerous kind of crime: the kind that looks like tragedy.

Nina Starts Seeing the Mask Slip — A Mother’s Worst Realization
Support for Willow may be limited, but she isn’t alone. Chase reportedly stands firmly in her corner, pushing the idea that 50/50 custody is the only fair outcome. Willow responds with practiced humility—insisting any time with her children is enough—earning sympathy where she can.

But Nina is watching, and a mother’s intuition is hard to silence. She sees the cold calculation beneath Willow’s tears. The way Willow steers conversations toward Michael’s “instability.” The way her timing is too perfect. The way she seems less like a desperate mom and more like someone constructing a story.

And once Nina starts asking herself the unthinkable—Could my daughter be capable of something truly criminal?—she faces an impossible choice: protect Willow… or stop her.

Friday’s Warning Sign: Everyone Thinks This Is About Court — Willow Thinks It’s About Erasure
By the end of Friday’s episode, spoilers suggest the pressure around Willow tightens from multiple directions. Michael senses something is wrong, but exhaustion and disbelief dull his instincts. Carly’s dread grows. Kai’s suspicions sharpen. Liz feels unease she can’t name. Nina watches her daughter like she’s seeing a stranger.

And Willow? Willow keeps moving—calm, composed, and terrifyingly patient—because if her plan succeeds, she doesn’t just win custody.

She erases the obstacles.

Drew becomes silence. Michael becomes a headline. And Willow becomes the only “stable” parent left standing.

The question Port Charles is about to answer isn’t whether Willow will fight dirty. It’s whether anyone will catch her before the trap snaps shut—for good.
