The PCPD is in the middle of a major shakeup after the November 11, 2025 episode of General Hospital. While Nathan gets his badge back, it’s under a new police commissioner with an uncertain new partner.

Key Takeaways

• Dante has been named acting police commissioner while Anna is “away.”
• Dante hired Nathan back as a detective.
• Nathan will be partnered with the man who replaced him, Chase, who Dante knows can’t be trusted in Willow’s case.

When Nathan (Ryan Paevey) got a call that the police commissioner wanted to see him, he expected to have a meeting with Anna (Finola Hughes). Instead, he was greeted by Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), who is now acting commissioner now that Anna is supposedly on a WSB mission.

Dante told his former partner that his psyche evaluation was perfect, and revealed that he also went through a rough period when he returned to Port Charles after being away. But in the end, it was Dante who got to hire back Nathan as a PCPD detective…with a slight catch.

Nathan will be partnered with Chase (Josh Swickard), which is sure to be interesting for a few reasons. Not only is Chase the man who replaced Nathan as Dante’s partner after Nathan’s supposed death, but Dante warned Nathan that when it came to Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) case, there’s a chance Chase can’t be fully trusted. Then, of course, there’s the fact that Chase is a hardcore Red Sox fan, which the two Yankees fans shared eye rolls over.

General Hospital spoilers for November 12 tease Willow’s side of things now that she’s unexpectedly released from Pentonville. She just walked in on Wiley (Viron Weaver) having dinner with Michael (Rory Gibson) and Jacinda (Paige Herschell), and odds are, she won’t be too thrilled about her son befriending the escort who drugged Drew (Cameron Mathison).
