GENERAL HOSPITAL: Who is “C?”; Tracy Breaks Down Over Monica’s Death
On the Monday, September 22nd episode of General Hospital, the mystery deepened, not only with the arrival of an injured Nathan West (Ryan Paevey), apparently back-from-the-dead, but a puzzling and ominous gift received by Britt (Kelly Thiebaud), as Anna (Finola Hughes) tries to put two and two together that seemingly both siblings Britt and Nathan are alive!
After Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), Anna (Finola Hughes), Lucas (Van Hansis) and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) are shocked that the injured man from a car crash at GH looks just like Nathan West, Anna had his fingerprints run in the PCPD database and they came back as a match! Anna is not so sure this is all as it seems, especially since Britt and Nathan are the children of Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) and her arch-nemesis, Cesar Faison.
Meanwhile, after a verbal fight with Lulu (Alexa Havins), over Ben/Rocco, (Finn Carr), Britt reopens the gift box to find several vials and a note that reads: “Don’t Forget to Take Your Medicine.” It’s signed simply by the letter “C”. Is “C” actually Cesar Faison? Is the medication to help with Britt’s Huntington’s disease remission, or is something else going on?

As Port Charles continues to learn of the passing of Monica Quartermaine, Tracy (Jane Elliot) has yet to let it all out, over the death of someone she loved very much. The woman who her late brother, Alan, cared more about than anyone, too.
Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) shows up at the “Q’s” unaware that Monica has passed, and is insistent on talking to Tracy about Deception. Finally, Tracy tells Lucy about Monica, and GH does a great job in the writing of the scene, harkening back to how Lucy stole Alan from Monica, and wore red at the wedding, just like she is now. Lucy is quick to point out that Tracy wore black to the nuptials. The two exchange some tense moments about the past, before finally getting emotional until they finally share a drink and toast to Monica.

After Lucy leaves, Tracy, who has been doing her best to be stoic, crumbles on the staircase that goes up to Monica’s room and cries as the episode comes to its conclusion.
So, who do you think is “C”? Do you think it’s truly Nathan West who is at ‘General Hospital’ recovering from a car accident that seems to maybe have been fabricated to get him into the hospital? What did you think of Tracy crumbling on the Q staircase in grief over Monica? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below. But first, take a look below at what went down after the PCPD saw Nathan seemingly alive at GH, but ‘seemingly’ injured!
The literally brainless Cesar Faison is still sitting on his couch, here in Hell, watching FAUX Noize and reality TV all day long. He’s barely capable of operating the TV’s remote control at this point. He’s not about to escape from Hell again. Though he did that a couple of times in the past – when he actually had a brain!
I don’t think it’s Cesar Faison or Cyrus Renault. My theory is that it’s either a Cassadine, or the person everyone thinks is “Nathan” is really his twin, perhaps Cesar Jr.?
Identical twins share DNA, but they do not share fingerprints. So even if Nathan had a secret twin brother, his prints would not match Nathan’s.
Back when Billy Miller’s Drew thought he was Jason, there was some sort of “glitch” in checking his fingerprints (forget the specifics of how or why, but it was probably Helena Cassadine’s doing) but his DNA matched Jason’s, and nobody had any reason to believe Jason had a twin brother, so the lack of fingerprints wasn’t an issue.
Until the real Jason showed up in 2017, of course.
Also, Nathan having a twin would be even more problematic than Jason having one. When Jason was born, you only had Alan, Susan, and her crazy cousin Heather in the loop. So if they write a backstory decades later where Susan hands off a second baby to Heather to have her pass off to her weirdo friend Betsy whatever her name was, and by the time any of this comes out, both Susan & Alan are dead, that’s a really small loop of people who would know the story.
However with Nathan, you have his real mother Dr Ooblech. His father Faison. He was raised by Nina’s mother and grew up with Nina as a significantly older sister (at least until her 20 year stint as a vegetable) and apparently Victor Cassadine was around often enough for Liesl to claim he was Nathan’s father at some point.
And none of those people would have known Nathan had a twin? Nope, that’s even more of a stretch than somebody taking Faison’s brain out of a jar of Formaldehyde and putting it back in his head so he could escape from Hell.
(that didn’t happen either, of course)
And Brit has to take her meds. She was in the lab getting her 6 million dollar parts. Now she’s bionic so she has to take drugs her entire life, or her body will reject all the parts.
Cyrus, his abrupt end a few months ago could not be the last of a great character and great actor.
Another day, another outstanding performance from Jane. And, yes, the writers played it right with the Tracy-Lucy interaction.
Hoping all the talk of Alan on Monday’s episode doesn’t preclude flashback scenes with Stuart Damon later in the week.
As for who is C:
Cesar Jr. as some mention is a possibility.
Otherwise:
Dead characters…
Cyrus Renault – if he’s not dead-dead, the WSB has him somewhere
Cesar Faison. Three family members would be extreme – even for a show that featured an alien.
Cassandra Pierce. She’s more in Valentin’s orbit than the Faison clan.
Connie Falconeri. Just for giggles.
“Living”…
Curtis – too preoccupied
Chase – too nice
Charlotte – too young
Cody – too dumb
Cameron – too off the canvas
Which leads us to… Carly. She has to be the center! Okay, I’ve had my fun.
The interaction between Tracy and Lucy was brilliantly written and brilliantly executed by two acting masters. Tracy breaking down on the stairs was so incredibly touching.
To TPTB: Please, don’t let “C” be Faison again. Maybe it’s the Cassadine guy that’s in prison. The one that Brennan wants a favor from.
Casey the Alien!
OMG – perfect!

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).
On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..
In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”
GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW
So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!
FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD
As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”
Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.
So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL
Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.
The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.
In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”
So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
