General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Zeroes in on His Target, Marco Gets His Hands On Britt’s Meds Believing Sidwell Will Protect Him
Emotions were running high and are about to reaching their tipping points after the Thursday, March 19, episode of General Hospital. First, Jason (Steve Burton) is preparing to eliminate Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) inside his storage unit, but has a series of flashbacks of the goodbyes with the people he loves, before he tries to kill the man that is a threat to him and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud).
The flashbacks are tender and deep for Jason, as he remembers talking with Tracy (Jane Elliot) after his mother, Monica Quartermaine died, Carly (Laura Wright) advising him to not promise his son, Danny, when he would return, but that she will watch over him while Jason is gone, plus promising Carly if she died because of her relationship with Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna), he would kill him.
Jason prepares the long-range rifle, packs it his duffle bag. and locks the storage unit and heads out. Steve Burton once again brings the heart to the hitman in what is turning out to be his final scenes before his hiatus from the soap.

LYING TO MY FACE
Meanwhile, in an excellent performance from Laura Wright, Carly sits across her kitchen table from Jack Brennan. Armed with the knowledge of how Jack is deceiving her about her own daughter being in the WSB because of him, she tests him. She says, when people aren’t who you think they are, it’s probably because they aren’t being honest – and that’s not real love. Jack responds that he hated his job because it requires him to keep things from Carly, and while he is well-aware he wasn’t enough of a partner for her, he truly loved her.
An emotional Carly, with tears in her eyes, says that sometimes loving someone meant risking being honest, and asked Jack if he loved her enough to do that. However, before Jack could answer, duty called when he got an important message and had to leave. As he does, the camera reveal a devastated look on Carly’s face.

At his office at GH, Lucas (Van Hansis) is concerned because he hasn’t heard from Marco (Adrian Anchondo). While at Wyndemere, Pascal (Marc Forget) told Sidwell (Carlo Rota), once again, his concerns about Lucas. Sidwell headed him off at the pass, because he knows he has a crush on his son and wants Marco all to himself. Marco arrives with contracts for his father to sign, so Pascal exits.
In a seemingly touching moment (but is it?), Sidwell thanked his son for sticking around, even though it’s taking time to avenge his mother’s death and bring down Sonny. Sidwell heads out to meet Ava on the mainland. Marco is then able to break into the safe and obtain two vials of Britt’s medication.
Later at Wyndemere, Pascal opens the safe and sees two vials missing and calls Cullum. He puts the blame on Lucas, Cullum says he will handle it. Cut to: an anxious Lucas worried about Marco, when suddenly his boyfriend shows up and hands Lucas two vials of Britt’s medication. Marco tells Lucas to get them to Britt ASAP because it’s only a matter of time before someone figures out they are missing. Marco reassured Lucas that everything will be alright because his father will protect him.

While Jason is an outside stairwell with his gun aimed at Cullum, the WSB director is at WSB headquarters telling off Jack for the Five Poppies debacle and demanding a resolution to the situation now. Suddenly, when Jack walks into the rifle’s view, and both he and Cullum are in range, Jason hesitates and tries to decide what his next move will be. We fade to black.
What did you think will happen next? Will Jason be able to shoot and kill Cullum? Will Sidwell turn on his own son, and potentially end his life? Will Lucas be in the line of fire, because he has the vials to reverse engineer the medication that saves Britt? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
Britt told Josslyn that Faison had FOUR children. I only know of 3(Peter, Britt, & Nathan). Many on social media claim he had a child named Sonny that was mentioned on Night Shift. I watched it & don’t even remember Faison being on that show. Does Faison really have a fourth child & if he did who is it? If anyone would know the correct answer to this question it’s you Michael.
It’s possible that the writers just messed up. Like they did a few months ago when they said Scout was 12 years old… which would have been impossible, because her father (Dragon Chow Drew) wasn’t even heard of then.
Double agent Cullum does resemble Faison a little bit. So it wouldn’t be out of the question if he were a chip off the old literally brainless block. But it would seem a little odd that neither Britt or Nathan have reacted to him as if he were a “long lost brother”.
And having Cullum as a son would be a major contradiction to Dr Obrecht’s past narrative of why she hid the fact that Nathan was her son from him and everybody else for decades. She said that she knew Faison would be obsessed with his son if he knew about him, to make sure he was raised up as a proper heir to the evil empire. But he wouldn’t have as much reason to be obsessed with Nathan if he already had a son. And Cullum is definitely older than Nathan. Or Heiny, for that matter.
Before they cut to Lucas (who was in the hospital) for his first scene, there was an establishing shot. That building looked nothing like LA County Hospital, which has been used as the exterior of GH since at least 1978. What gives, Frank? Wasn’t there enough backlash to the Wyndemere (cheap hotel) shot earlier this year, than to change the exterior of the building that’s still at the end of the opening credits? Heck, the building even looked the same when it was rebuilt after it blew up in the late 2000’s.
It feels like someone is having fun utilizing AI generated images. It’s stupid and tacky.
It seems they have copied this idea from Days of Our Lives, who has been using these AI generated “external” shots for a while. Some of which make no sense at all, like showing the Horton house – which has been standing since the show’s beginning in 1965 – looking like it’s right in the middle of a recently built subdivision.
LA County Hospital built a new, modern hospital several years ago. That may have been a picture of the new building. That old hospital is a broken down mess. Since the sets for the show are updated, they may feel it’s time to show an updated exterior.
I noticed the same thing. Having once lived in LA, and driven past the old General Hospital many times, when I saw the new building in the recent episode, it made me wonder if there had been a new addition built somewhere near the main hospital. In the far background, it looked like the very top part of the old hospital showing behind the new building. Llanviewer717 mentioned a new addition built, earlier.
I had a gut feeling the medication in the safe wasn’t the real thing.
So the butler is gay too?

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.
It’s been over two-years since his last appearance on General Hospital, now fan favorite Kin Shriner (Scott Baldwin) has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the casting of his grown-up TV daughter, Serena Baldwin now played by Kelly Kruger.
Kelly took over the role of Serena on-screen starting with the July 30, 2026 episode and has been ensconced in the storyline with her mother, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), in trying to win back full creative control of Deception for her.
In fact on the Monday, October 19 episode of the ABC soap opera, Serena tried to dupe Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) into signing over Michael’s (Rory Gibson) shares of the company. Jason caught on and wondered why she was doing this. She claimed she just wanted to help her mom gain creative control from Tracy (Jane Elliot) rather than full ownership, and begged Jason to keep quiet about it, which he agreed to for now.

WHERE IS SCOTT?
On Monday, Shriner also took to X and said, “I think Kelly Kruger is doing a great job on General Hospital, and she and Lynn Herring work well together.” That was followed by comments in his thread about the show needing to bring back Scott too.
In fact, back on August 25, Shriner also took to X with a reminder that Scott is still around and ready to come back to Port Charles, sharing, “Scotty Baldwin always fits in he just needs the right sport coat !!!!”
The last time Serena mentioned her father Scott was when Kruger made her debut and informed Lucy that her father was, “living his best life in Key West.” Meanwhile, Shriner posts on his X account continually and shared back on August 2, that it has been 49 years since he made his on-screen debut as then teenaged, Scotty Baldwin and thanked the fans for al the love and support.
So, now let us know, are you enjoying Kelly Kruger as Serena Baldwin? Do you want to see GH bring back Scott Baldwin into the story, so Serena has both her parents in Port Charles? Do you like the potential of Jason and Serena pairing? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
