There's an embedded video clip of Laura and Sonny inside that Variety article, had to disable adblock to see it.

Attached here for easier viewing. it shows the new atrium set:

A new set for the hospital:  

Valentini in Variety:
“... the the new wing for Monica, which is a really beautiful set. It’s pretty incredible.”
The set of which he speaks is an “airy” atrium, which Valentini says gives a “more indoor and outdoor” look and feel to the show, something he plans on carrying further into the summer. “We’re always indoors, so I’m always looking for ways to challenge the production designers to figure out a way to open it up or bring us at least partially outdoors. That’s why Sonny’s house and the Quartermaine solarium came about, because they’re very open. They have big exteriors.”

Throughout the April 1 episode, there’s also a nod to the heart to the relationships in Port Charles — including the one between Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Laura (Genie Francis), as seen in the exclusive clip below — to those who have come through the hospital doors, both as staff and as patients, that have left behind loved ones. Many are remembered on a memorial wall in the new wing.

Dedication of of the Dr. Monica Quartermaine Cardiac Care Center
.... why is Sidwell in this photo?  Also, Sonny is completely irrelevant but the show promoted him being there.  And they didn't invite Jason?

Jason and Sonny’s plans are thwarted. Molly gets devastating news. Kai confides in Trina. Emma opens up to Anna. Drew feels betrayed.

All well and good, but I wish Frank worried about story as much as he does about sets.

And that short clip of Sonny and Laura? Forgive me, but I'm not feeling this closeness between them. Sonny is not a good guy, and hearing Laura tell him he always shows up when it counts made me feel nauseous.

I felt nauseous, too.  It's just gross.
Frank always insures that Sonny will always be written to appear in episodes that count (even if he's irrelevant).  And then gives those words to Laura because Genie is the voice of GH.  Gross.

Quoting the Variety article again:  "Throughout the April 1 episode, there’s also a nod to the heart to the relationships in Port Charles — including the one between Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Laura (Genie Francis), as seen in the exclusive clip below — to those who have come through the hospital doors, both as staff and as patients, that have left behind loved ones. Many are remembered on a memorial wall in the new wing."

My question: 
Is it just going to be the same photos from the previously-located wall of photos? Or will they add other prior staff and patients to the wall? 
Asking because I never saw the need for Britt Westbourne to be on the existing memorial wall -- they added her there after she died.  I know Britt was co-chief-of-staff briefly, but her character just wasn't important to the show.   But she shouldn't have been included with the mainstays of Lucille, Jessie, Steve, Tony, Bobbie, Alan, Amy Vining, Gail Baldwin, Epiphany, etc. on the existing memorial wall.

Perhaps if they expand the photos wall in the new cardiac wing, to have a "less important photos" in a side section to show minor characters who are deceased such as short-term staff and patients, then maybe I'd accept Britt there.   But not on the main wall.

    • It is so dumb and is dragging on already after a couple weeks. By the time Carly wraps this up Joss will be running the local branch office. And yes, Laura deserves better. It's like they tripled down on this Sonny apologia stuff with her and Anna after the Mulcahey saga.
    • A white twunk with no purpose?? On Days of our Lives??!!
    • It feels like the show hired Hank Northrop first and are still deciding what to do with him lol. I don't have a judgement on the character yet, but this non-story (so far) has been happening for at least a month and he's only made 2 appearances lol. Also, this may be a stupid question, but is Chad's name really Chadwick?  I can't find any evidence of that in a quick google search, so I assume it's just a silly nickname Leo calls him?  I feel like I've heard other characters (EJ?) call him that though too.
    • I know Anita mentioned that she no longer was investing in the trust, while Leslie had stated that the interest was multiplying at a decent rate... but I do have a feeling she'll wipe through the trust in a short amount of time with the amount of spending she's doing. The show always throws in tiny nuggets of foreshadowing and having Anita's remark and Eva warning her mother not to overdo the spending tells me that Leslie will be blowing through that money eventually.
    • I honestly don't care if Laura is friends with Sonny.  She's been friends with him for decades.  The way she goes about the friendship is stupid.   She has no sense of self-preservation or awareness about the optics of parading her friendship with Sonny around town.  She practically celebrates it.  There's no reason in the world she can't just keep the friendship low key and explain they share a grandchild and frame the relationship that way.  A lot of Laura's choices, like getting into a public fight with Dalton, just make her look silly and like a fairly incompetent mayor. Carly is another PC lady that's starting to look silly.  I know she's explained her plan a lot, but it's still stupid and moving at a glacial pace.  If Joss is 45 by the time her revenge plot unfolds, what's the point?  Just dump Brennen and move on please.
    • On that same note, it's astounding to have mobster Sonny in the same office with Mayor Laura chatting it up about their mutual grandson. Think about the reaction if John Gotti and Mayor Eric Adams had a friendship

      ?? I guess the Logic behind Sonny & Jason acceptance is like when i saw a documentary where FBI agents said they'd rather deal with the mafia than terrorists or cartels---they're the "lesser of 3 evils". Anyway I'm about 30 years late on this convo.
    • Im confused. Does Jessica know anything about June's relation to Tyrell? At the start of the episode, it seemed like June was gonna slip that he was her son but she caught herself but later in the episode she referred to him as "my boy" and Jessica had no reaction like that wasnt a surprise to her No, Anita was putting money in the account every 6 months but we werent told how much was in it when Leslie became a beneficiary. The show has set it up that it was multiplying based off the interest so that its really worth quite alot now. I dont buy it but thats what they've told us
    • What was the point in Lori's return as Mrs. Max Hollister? That little story never made much sense to me.  Were there plans for a permanent return? Or even a new family with her as the matriarch?  
    • I guess it depends on your device.  I can watch CW shows via their website on my Windows PC.
    • Ooooo A Liam episode? I'll watch it later today. They sure are churning the daily episodes out early.
