The hunky young man is just what Emma needs after watching her grandmother lose it and having to leave her in the mental health facility in France. Even though Emma had Felicia (Kristina Wagner)<\/a> and Mac (John J. York) by her side when she saw her grandmother, what she really needs now is Gio.<\/p>\n

In the preview, Emma\u2019s happy to see him waiting for her; it\u2019s just what she needed. These young lovebirds have the sweetest moment before things get real.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had to leave my grandmother in France. It\u2019s worse than we ever thought it could be, and I\u2019ve lost her. I\u2019ve lost the grandmother that I knew,\u201d Emma informs Gio as she breaks down in tears.<\/p>\n

The situation with Anna is taking a toll on Emma, which will play into her relationship with Gio. Lucky for Emma, Gio has proven time and again that he always has her back.<\/p>\n

General Hospital fans<\/a> have even stated that Emma and Gio\u2019s romance gives them \u201c90s soap energy.<\/a>\u201d It\u2019s so true, and the drama involving Anna will certainly bring more of that vibe because Emma\u2019s going to need to lean on Gio while she deals with her grandmother\u2019s breakdown.<\/p>\n

This week, Bruner and Hughes delivered powerhouse performances<\/a> in their scenes as Anna feared for her granddaughter\u2019s life and Emma had to be dragged away from her.<\/p>\n

What Emma, Felicia, and Mac don\u2019t know is that Sidwell (Carlo Rota), Pascal (Marc Forget), and Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) kidnapped Anna and tormented her into believing Faison (Anders Hove), the man who tormented Anna and her family for decades, was still alive.<\/p>\n

That is the reason Anna was freaking out when she saw Emma. It\u2019s also why she informed Mac and Felicia that Faison is still alive and coming for her family.<\/p>\n

Fans know that the three men needed Anna to have a breakdown and believe Faison was still alive to have a break, so she would stay out of their shady business as they try to finish Faison\u2019s cold fusion project.<\/p>\n
