‘General Hospital’ (GH) Spoilers: Hayden Bargains With Franco Over Elizabeth’s Life [VIDEO]
She's the only one who can save Elizabeth's (Rebecca Herbst) life and she has no idea of the real reason why, but knowing a life is on the line won't stop Hayden (Rebecca Budig) from trying to get what she also wants by confronting Franco (Roger Howarth) and trying to convince him to make a deal with her on General Hospital.
Elizabeth fell down the stairs during the blackout at the hospital when Paul (Richard Burgi) pushed her, and her spleen has since erupted, but she hasn't been able to get the needed surgery to save her life because she has an extremely rare blood type, and Hayden is the only match. Hayden agreed to donate the blood initially, but after the charges against her for the assault were dropped, she will change her tune.
Before the entire incident unfolded, Hayden had learned Elizabeth came into possession of her diamonds that she was supposed to turn in to the police after her father was arrested. Knowing that when she's better, Elizabeth will once again resume her plan to turn the diamonds in to the feds and send Hayden to jail for a long time, Hayden will make an enormous request of Franco, warning him that if he doesn't comply by getting the diamonds and handing them over to her, then convincing Elizabeth it was the right thing to do, then she won't donate the blood and Elizabeth will end up dying.
"My freedom for Elizabeth's life," she says in a preview clip for the Monday, September 12 episode.
Franco will be stunned by her attempt to bargain with Elizabeth's life, especially since either way, it can turn into a losing situation for him, since either Elizabeth would die, or she would be upset with him for foiling her attempt to get rid of Hayden for good. However, he will also be stunned because he knows a secret about both-they're half-sisters who don't know it-and he will be appalled that Hayden would actually treat her sister in such a way. However, her bargaining attempt is also distracting her from trying to figure out how Franco knew she was a match for Elizabeth's blood type, allowing him to continue keeping the secret, so he will possibly agree to her terms as a result.
General Hospital airs Monday-Friday at 3 p.m. on ABC.
