“She makes the show”- General Hospital fans impressed with Tracy’s screen time in the latest General Hospital episode

General Hospital is one of the longest-running and most loved daytime soap operas. Since its premiere in 1963, the show has delved into the life of the residents in Port Charles and all their darkest secrets: medical drama, mob rivalries, complex family dynamics, and much more.

Fans were impressed with Tracy Quartermaine in the last installment of General Hospital, and it didn't take fans long to be enthralled once again by her sparring banter, charm, and uncanny knack for drama.

Played by Jane Elliot, Tracy dazzles in scenes that run the gamut from slapstick humor to moments that delve deep into the heart and remind us why she remains one of the show's most beloved characters.

Tracy's straight-shooter attitude and fast wit brought much levity to a storyline otherwise defined by tension and danger. But it didn't take long for fans to give out kudos on social media: they celebrated her impactful screen time and called her the heart of the episode.

General Hospital fans were clamoring for social media in droves to express excitement and appreciation for Tracy's role last night, with some proclaiming she truly "makes the show."

Comments pointed to her one-liners, of course, and interactions with other characters; but equally undeniable was the spark every time she stepped out on screen.

"Love Tracy, She makes the show!" said one fan on Facebook.

What has Tracy’s latest storyline been about on General Hospital?

Tracy Quartermaine was drawn into the Cody and Sasha drama, contributing her usual dose of candor and cunning to the story. Tracy's interaction with Cody over his feelings for Sasha showed the signature skeptical humor.

Even as she rendered harsh judgments, she acknowledged Cody's self-awareness as a "con man, drawing attention to how realistic such characters can be in tumultuous relationships.

The pragmatic Tracy, who, literally sat down with Cody and gave him his investment advice and told him to keep his distance from Drew, proved yet again why everybody loves and fears her in equal measure in Port Charles.

Her scenes also highlighted her intelligence and business acumen. Her interest in Cody's business and her advice on how to extract full value from an act of bribery recalled the several decades Tracy had spent managing family business as well as family dynamics.

Ava’s Trial: Can Ric and Anna see eye to eye?

As circumstances have taken a new turn, Ric Lansing confronts Anna Devane over Ava's arrest and raises questions about the origin of the evidence. He feels that Ava's incriminating photos, snapped by a private investigator hired by Sonny, are suspiciously convenient. He feels the Port Charles Police Department (PCPD) has mishandled the case.

Anna quickly changes the subject regarding Ric's pointed questions about Jason's involvement, insinuating perhaps his dislike of Sonny is causing him to lose his grip on reality.

The tables are turned as Ric assails Anna for being too friendly with Sonny and Jason to render fair judgments, implying she will look the other way on various legalities for them. This brings on tense one-upmanship by Ric and Anna as the trial approaches.

Even while Ric stands fast on challenging the legality of Ava's arrest, Anna refuses to budge in her position, accusing Ric of using Ava's trial as a vendetta against Sonny.

The tension between these two could mold not just the outcome of Ava's trial but also the PCPD dynamics as each tries to prove his allegiance to their respective cohorts.
