On yesterday’s episode of ABC’s General Hospital, Ava (Maura West) yet again saved herself from certain death!
After Sonny (Maurice Benard) finally has the evidence (thanks to Carly) that Ava shot and murdered his beloved Connie Falconeri (Kelly Sullivan), Sonny wants to rid the world of Ms. Jerome once and for all.
In showdown scene between powerhouse performers Maurice Benard and Maura West, as Sonny is about to pull the trigger, since now Ava had basically admitted she was the culprit in Connie’s dearh, she tells Sonny there is something he doesn’t know, and then reveals she’s pregnant! And that leaves us with this question: Who is the baby daddy of Ava’s baby? Is it Sonny or is it his son Morgan’s (Bryan Craig(? Either way, according to Ava, it’s a Corinthos offspring!
Elsewhere, finally after months of wondering just what is going on with “Luke Spencer” crime lord, Fluke (Anthony Geary) goes to what looks to be Miscavige to a high security padded room where none other than the real Luke is stashed away. And as previewed in On-Air On-Soaps recent interview with GH head writer Ron Carlivati, he revealed to us that viewers would learn a clue to the true identify of the Luke crime lord within short time. From the looks of this, we now know that the real Luke is locked away!
Watch the moment where Ava tells Sonny she is pregnant after the jump! Then, let us know what you thought of Ava’s announcement to Sonny that she is preggars to save her life? Who do you think is the bio-dad …. Sonny or Morgan? What did you think of the Fluke/Luke scene? Share your thoughts below!

‘General Hospital’ SORAS’s Scout Cain and Casts Kayden Brenna Tokarski in the Role of Drew and Sam’s Daughter
In General Hospital casting news, none other than Scout Cain just grew up right before our eyes! In a case of SORAS (Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome) the daughter of Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) and the late Sam McCall (formerly played by Kelly Monaco) has been recast.
According to Soap Opera Digest, Kayden Brenna Tokarski takes over the role from Cosette Abinante who has played Scout since 2022. If you caught yesterday’s GH 16,000 episode on set cast celebration video, you may have witnessed Kayden at the festivities. The young actress will make her debut in July since GH tapes about six weeks ahead of air.
Taking to her Instagram on Tuesday, June 2, Kayden confirmed her casting by posting: “A DREAM COME TRUE. So honored to be joining the General Hospital family!! Biggest thanks to Mark Teschner (casting director, GH) and Frank Valentini (EP, GH) for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime to work on this iconic show.”

The decision to make a sharp turn with the age of the character was for upcoming story purposes, and to open up Scout for more teenaged and young adult storylines; especially since Drew Cain is eventually going to come out of his locked-in state and perhaps Scout can go at war with Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) for what she did to her father? Stay tuned.
SCOUT CAIN READY FOR TEENAGE ROMANCE?
As General Hospital viewers know, Scout was born in 2017, which makes her about 9 before the SORAS occurred. Some rumors are circulating that a more teenaged Scout could become a love interest fo Finn Carr’s Rocco Falonceri? Previously, the two characters bonded over Sam’s death, since at the time Rocco’s father, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) was engaged to Sam, and the two, along with Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn), tried to stick together as “brothers and sister,” after her mom passed. But will that relationship dynamic change?
Tokarski who is 16, has an impressive acting resume which includes: Gaslit on Starz. Lifetime’s My Professor’s Deadly Secret, where she played Lauren the on-screen daughter of Passions and Y&R alum James Hyde (ex-Sam and ex-Jeremy Stark, respectively) character of John, and another Lifetime thriller, Killer in the Woods.
More recently, Kayden completed production on the indie thriller Quads & the Kicker, and can be seen in the upcoming Curse of Vandor starring Dee Wallace (ex-Pat Spencer, GH). The actress has also appeared in numerous national ad and branding campaigns including being featured opposite Joey Fantone in a Red Lobster commercial and voicing the part of “Wednesday Addams” in a Wendy’s commercial as a tie-in to the Netflix series Wednesday.

Steve Burton and Finola Hughes Back Taping Episodes at ‘General Hospital’
Monday, June 1, ABC’s General Hospital celebrated yet another milestone in their iconic history with the taping of their 16,000 which will air on July 13th. To mark the occasion the cast and crew took some time out to acknowledge the big day.
General Hospital’s Instagram and social accounts posted a video of the cast cavorting on the set where it was revealed that longtime favorites, Steve Burton and Finola Hughes are back in action and taping all-new episodes of the series in their signature roles of Jason Morgan and Anna Devane.
Today marked Steve Burton’s actual return date, while according to Soap Opera Digest, Finola Hughes has already been back for some time. As GH fans know, Steve went on an extended hiatus from the show in February, his last episode till now aired on March 25, but the two-time Daytime Emmy promised to be back in June and here he is.
THE WHEREABOUTS OF JASON AND ANNA
In story, Jason took the fall for Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) who shot WSB director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) who was attempting to kill Jason and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud). Now that Cullum has figured out Rocco is the one who shot him, Rocco fled Port Charles along with Britt and they remain MIA. Might they find Jason, while they are on the run?
As for Anna Devane, the character was last seen on-screen in February. Hughes was written out after Anna was kidnapped and given hallucinogens by Sidwell (Carlo Rota), Cullum and company believing that her nemesis Cesar Faison (Anders Hove) was alive. Eventually, a gaslighted Anna wound up at a mental health facility in France, tried to break free, and was captured again and put back in the facility.
Recently, Congresswoman Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) helped ensure that the French authorities would drop any legal charges against Anna potentially paving the way for Anna’s return to Port Charles? We shall see!
Below you can check out the special video marking General Hospital’s 16,000 episode with the accompanying words, “There’s nothing like celebrating a milestone with family, friends, and cake to cure a case of the Mondays. 63 years and 16,000 episodes later, we’re still going strong thanks to all of you! Thank you so much for watching.”

‘General Hospital’ Casts Dean Geyer in the Role of ‘Tristan Roberts’
Today on June 1, General Hospital marked another milestone with the taping of their 16,000 episode. And along with that, came some very intriguing casting news when actor Dean Geyer was spotted in the social media video that made the rounds of the cast celebrating on set.

Dean may look very familiar to primetime fans having appeared in some major television shows including: Terra Nova as Mark Reynolds, Glee as Brody Weston, Zoey 1o2 as Todd, plus 9-1-1 as Zane Williams.
The talented Geyer is also a singer/songwriter having appeared on season 4 of Australian Idol, where he came in third. In 2007, Dean released his album titled Rush.

Dear God… PLEASE don’t let Fluke pull off a rubber mask!!! Hopefully RC will come up with something new (but I doubt it…)
I am with you; how utterly ridiculous-the masks.
Fluke story line needs to go! And, ewww, Ava & Sonny, yuck, yuck, yuck!
I kind of figure they would have to bring a pregnancy into the picture but woukd that stop Sonny from doing the deed after Ava gives birth? I still think that is Luke’s cousin Bill Ekert but I do not remember Bill being so evil when he was on the show.
Another question might be is Ava really pregnant or is this just a way for her to keep Sonny from killing her?For now it buys Ava time because if she is indeed pregnant it keeps her alive and if she isn’t then she could use the time to come up with another plan to keep Sonny from killing her.If Ava is pregnant with Sonny’s child that could be the final nail in Sonny and Morgan’s relationship.As for Luke i think it was a given that the guy walking around the last few months wasn’t the real Luke.Now the question becomes who is he really?I think it could be Luke’s identical cousin Bill Eckert.
The child could be Morgans?
Andrew, Ron would never do that as that would completely replicate the Claudia storyline.
Oh wait, this is Ron we’re talking about. Nevermind.
I’m RC is not the first head writer to repeat a story another writer did.Plus the Claudia story happened years ago.So if RC wants to do a similar story now i have no problem with it.
GH has gotten its largest May sweeps ratings in 7 years!!!
Big deal, abc wants out of the soap business. Abc is only giving gh 1 year one year contracts at a time. THey are not confident with gh anymore. Its only a matter of time, when gh gets cancelled. Yes the ratings are up, so what, that doesn’t mean anything anymore. Say bye bye gh, and hello to new talk shows and more reality shows. I quit watching gh, last week. Very painful to watch. I watch days and young and the restless.
I don’t care if ABC is just giving GH one year deals because it just means GH will be on the air for at least one more year.Plus maybe one year deals is better than multi-year deals because it means GH knows they can’t get complacent or they could be cancelled.
I didn’t see any power in Maurice Bernard’s performance. All I saw was Bernard stalling so he could remember his lines.
Loved the ‘real Luke’/’fake Luke’ mini-scene, but I will be glad when this story is over. Once again a story has been dragged out so long that it has lost all its power. Now we are going to be thrust into a who’s the daddy story with Ava’s latest reveal. Do I really care whose spawn she is carrying — if she is pregnant at all — ? No, I don’t care.
Maurice Bernard/Sonny is a very powerful actor.. He owns Sunny and always gives a great performance..
I love the 2 stories, they are intriguing and high drama..
I can’t wait to see whats next and how it all turns out..
🙂
I, too am tired of the storyline with Eva. All the lying and deception has gotten boring. She’s sitting around on the island drinking Mai-Tai’s and now she’s supposedly pregnant. But, nice to know they have drugstores on Sonny’s island where folks can buy pregnancy test kits? Yea, right. The Sonny character ran out of steam years ago. Betraying both his sons by killing AJ and then sleeping with Eva has taken him even more out of whatever “integrity” he had.
The only fun part of this mess would be if Carly ends up becoming a grandmother…and to Ava’s brat, no less!!!!
Saw all this comes months ago! Please tell me something I don’t already know! Come on RC surprise me! PLEASE!!!
And hurry up, I’m not getting any younger!
It can’t be sonny’s cuz they JUST slept together, it would be too early it has to be Morgand
Sonny and Ava slept together a few weeks ago.So it is possible she could be pregnant now.However if she is pregnant then i’m sure there’s going to be a paternity test done when she’s further along when there’s less risk.
Not exactly the most shocking plot twist ever. Lol. Watching a greasy murderer threaten a pregnant woman and tell her he wants to watch her bleed out….just what I and so many others want to watch after lunch. Gross!!!!!! Sonny’s code of “honour” comes and goes to suit his needs. He threatened to kill Carly just last year and she is the mother of one of his children. Why do these people love murder so much? Snarly sat there and snarled at Rick for locking her in a panic room…as she sat there all doe eyed and in love with the serial killer and rapist right beside her. These people are very selective about their sociopaths!
Johnny, you’re so right. Sometimes I become so anticlimated to the insanity of the writing I forget to see how truly insane it really is.
I predicted Avas pregnancy some time ago(maybe its Lulu’s stolen embryo…kidding…lol)…child could still be Morgans(i like Sonny and Ava together…kind of reminds me of Barnabas and Angelique of Dark Shadows…Angelique was responsible for Josettes death…Ava for Connies…Barnabas confronted Angelique when he found out she was a witch…Sonny confronted Ava when he found out she killed Connie…some minor similiarities but it still reminds me of those two DS characters just the same)…maybe fluke is really Bill but still could be Jerry, The Balkan, a Cassidine, or Mr. Marbles who next will go after Epiphany…lol…Lulu still hasnt seen a picture of Lucas’s shooter which i thought would happen and Anna seems to have forgotten the Patrina car accident!!!
What happened to Olivias visions…i thought she’d see Morgan in a diaper and sucking on a binky…lol
on Fridays ep: when Morgan kissed Olivia
“lets do like they did to us” “take me back to your place”
LOL… nice! easy ! I think….
I was actually screaming in my mind… “do not go their, do not sully up anymore this relationship” !!!! ????
Whew ! thank good ness Olivia whetted her libido and stalled
her cojones with full bossom were invited
I did think…. woah! Nice to see Livia in the scene doing some stuff… that intrigues the audience… not to be saddled with Sonny… after Steve
she has potential with
Luke, fluke, bill… or whomever he is
Duke… would be riveting, passionate, and romantic
pressing for Connie’ cousin… she has it
Do not drink the water in Port Charles!! How many baby stories do you need to have.. I have had enough and lets move on to something besides a baby being involved… RC .. get some babies of your own if you are living vicariously through GH storylines.. I usually only praise you , but come on .. enough is enough… is enough.. is enough.. is enough…. ……NO MORE BABY STORIES>>>>
Thing is-
We have no idea if this is even a baby story..
Ava preggers haa not going to happen..
However; saying so is a life-preserver..
RC loves to bait and some people gobble down his bait.. lol
It should be Morgan’s. Sonny has infected the world enough with his spawn, let someone else have a turn to be a better dad than him (although that’s definitely not a very high bar to climb). I loathe Sonny with the fire of a thousand suns, so here’s hoping it’s an Ava/Morgan baby!
Ewwwwww this show has gotten gross
Mark, as long as GH is on and im enjoyng it im going to watch but if it gets cancelled i wont loose any sleep over it!!! (yes, it has its gross moments but i still like other parts of it) I watch Days which is better written but i only watch Y&R on occassion…as for May sweeps it is a big deal even if abc could care less…it shows people will still watch soaps…anyway, ill survive even if my soaps dont!!!
I found it interesting that Anna referred to Barrett Enterprises as “B.E.” which are Bill Eckert’s initials. I think Faux Luke is Luke’s cousin Bill. Especially after that reference. Ava is clearly lying. Just what we need, another spoiled spawn of Sonny’s from yet again, another baby mama. Please, no more Micheal and Kiki “love” scenes. Ugh.
Yes, no more love scenes especially in Tracys old office! Micheal shouldnt be C.E.O of E.LQ.,…he looks like a bag boy at the local Piggly Wiggly, lol
Him and David Thom should start a boy band! “Ladies and Gentleman, “OutofSync!”
Ava Jerome needs to suffer now, I love Maura West she is a wonderful actress, but Ava needs to die now. Bring back Vanessa Marcil. Brenda needs to kick Ava’s ass. Lol
I’m really surprised at the number of fans, a lot of women, here and on Facebook, refer to Ava being pregnant as “gross” because they think she is too old to be with Morgan, too old to be pregnant but not a word about Sonny always being with younger women and knocking them up. Sad when women perpetuate the double standards that put them down.
Excellent point mfarris! I agree. Both men and women can be dogs. Let’s not have a doublever standard when we all know Sonny was tearing it up with Emily.
LOL
Ava is not pregnant
Ava is using being pregnant to save her life..
RC is saying;
ha! and ha ha ! (at the gullible) lol
I think Sonny is a total manwhore who takes no responsibility for birth control (or self-control for that matter.) He makes me sick. But I kinda love to hate him and enjoy his character in small doses. As far as the women in his life? I have no double standard as I think all consenting adults should bear personal responsibility and self-respect. But Crypt-sex? In the Q Crypt? On the final resting place of the man they murdered? It doesn’t get much more disgusting than that. Not to mention, I believe his one-time “love” Emily Q is laid to rest there as well. SMH.
Have zero interest in another Corinthos baby, and if someone doesn’t kill FLUKE asap, I won’t even be recording this show to FF through. I keep expecting him to sprout horns and a tail.
There just aren’t words to express HOW sick I am of Fluke.
Don’t forget that we’ve seen Ava having cocktails and thanking the butler for his bar tending skills. I think the positive pregnancy test was a back up plan that she’s probably kept in her back pocket (literally) for a while. Now for the made scramble to get pregnant for real…
Plus maybe Ava knew eventually Shawn would tell Sonny that she was the one who shot Olivia last year.So Ava may have known that Sonny would try to kill her whether it was because she killed Connie or because she shot Olivia.So pretending to be pregnant was her way out but i’m wondering if the surprise will be on Ava if she turns out to be pregnant for real.
I’m not complaining too much about GH these days. Ava dropping the pregnancy bomb wasn’t surprising but I loved seeing Sonny’s reaction because he thought he had her D-E-A-D! I hope they will tell us who is Fluke by next week, or at least give us more clues!!
Wow! Shocking! NOT! We all saw this coming since crypt-sex.
I like Maura West and her “Ava Jerome” & I hope she sticks around. But please, NO MORE BABY STORYLINES! Enough with the kids already!
For the just concluded May Sweeps ratings period, ABC’s “General Hospital” attracted its largest audience in seven years in Total Viewers (3.068 million) and best performance in three years in Women 18-49 (747,000/1.2 rating) and Women 25-54 (999,000/1.6 rating) – since May Sweeps 2007 and 2011, respectively. The soap ranked as the #1 daytime show in Women 18-49 (tied in rating). Further, “GH” stood as the #1 program in Women 18-34 (252,000/0.7 rating), hitting a 4 year high in the demo – since May Sweeps 2010.
The iconic soap posted gains of 8% in Total Viewers (3.068 million vs. 2.851 million), 6% in Women 18-34 (252,000 vs. 237,000) and 4% in Women 25-54 (999,000 vs. 964,000).
Finally the fluke storyline is moving forward and I’m enjoying GH again, and hooray to Anna for not excepting to help Julian, at first I thought she was being vendictive, but finally Anna was acting like her old self and not being filled by Julian , hopefully she’ll catch on quickly that Rick is being set up. I’m hoping GH is getting back on track and that RC can keep himself or someone can keep him checked. Keeping my fingers cross. One last thing, I could care less if Jason comes back but if he’s being recast I give my vote to billy miller.
Those two skunks–Sonny and Ava–deserve each other.
LOl I agree with you
I don’t think Ava is really pregnant, it’s just a manipulation tactic. If she truly was, then why didn’t she say so at first instead of trying to manipulate Sonny into not killing her?
As for Fluke, the scenes with him and Luke were very creepy and made me despise Fluke even more, which I didn’t think was possible. But it’s starting to make sense now… Barrett Enterprises… B.E. … Bill Eckert?! Anna said it herself: “B.E. that’s interesting.” It could be a famous RC red herring but what if it is actually true?
Yeah Ava could be lying about been pregnant but the joke could be on her if a doctor confirms that she is indeed pregnant.Plus maybe she told Sonny she was pregnant because she knew he would take her back to Port Charles to get confirmation.On the island Sonny could easily kill her and get rid of her body.In Port Charles it might be a little harder for him to kill her.
The spawn from hell. Sonny and Ava’s genes.???Ha ha ha . This show makes sure I am never tempted to turn back in. Omen, Rosemarys baby, the bad seed, etc etc,etc. GMAB.
I think she might be pregnant…with Morgan’s child. Doesn’t correlate with her drinking on the island, unless it was non-alcoholic
The concept of a Jerome/Corinthos baby could be interesting…two families so twisted and at odds with each other…Sonny stifled from killing the woman who killed his love…coupled with his guilt over killing AJ made worse now by knowing that AJ was innocent.
I think there are many explosive possibilities with this storyline should they decide to pursue the baby route. I’s the only way they can keep Maura on the show which they want to do.
I must be losing my edge because I honestly did not see Ava pregnancy coming. I thought RC had written her in a corner and I did not know how they would get her out it– then boom a Corinthos baby— buys her at least nine months, and in nine months Ava can think of thousand ways to avoid Sonny’s wrath.
As for Fluke I don’t know who he is, all I know is after watching him on screen I feel the need for a shower to get his slime off of me.
“… I thought RC had written her in a corner”
that’s exactly what I thought
theres’s been a lot of angst, emotional upheaval, with Sonny’s part of the GH pie.
1st there was Connie’s death
2nd there was AJ death
and now… it caught me : Morgan is going to be a father!
I totally am on board… with how Ava and Morgan have caught on… fire it up
I like this romance….
I certainly hope it’s Morgans.
if Sonny claims to be all that about HIS family… then so be it… Ava has him in a corner and locked up… as well… with AJ’s murder… and vice versa
perhaps… this will be a rekindling time… renew of Ava and Morgan
he let’s go his childhood…. mans up… and stands by Ava… and forgives his father… and all is right with the world… for now
I’ve grown weary of all the parenting… lack of… by Sonny and Carly any way… interfering
I don’t know… Ava and Morgan… really are a stand alone pairing… they don’t need a lot of show… support… for or against… they just ring true
unlike watching Michael and Kiki…. which i have to ignore
PS : you know what really floored me… I can’t recall the exact day…
sparks flew… fireworks ignited … tantalize
but when FLUKE was at the hotel.. and he started chatting it up with Olivia…
woah… tame your horses… this was ignite HOT
I’m against Luke having an affair… OK it may be Bill.. but… for arguments sake… when the real Luke is back… maybe he won’t get married… I saw so much prospect with AG fLUKE and Olivia… I’m sorry tracy… for now…
viewers… lessen some backlash… I really am in to Ava and Morgan… it’s unfettered came about giddy love and romance… it is that easy
You realize that this is the end of Anthony Geary for the summer. Perfect way to write him out for his summer leave. We will all be up in the air until he comes back. Great goodbye for the summer but annoying for the audience.
Last year i think Anthony Geary split up his Summer vacation.In that he came back for few weeks during the Summer for a few weeks but then left again until the Fall.So maybe he’ll do the same thing this year.That way Luke and “Luke” won’t be offscreen for the whole Summer.
Did Ava ever actually admit to Sonny that she shot Connie?
She denied it all the way. Her facial expressions after Sonny told her about the recording gave it away.
