General Hospital
Who Shot Drew? ‘General Hospital’s’ Prime Suspects ‘Pass the Phone’ as Reveal Nears
What’s a game of “pass the phone” amongst friend, err enemies, right? Well, General Hospital has yet to reveal to its viewers just who is the real culprit who shot congressman Drew Cain! So, Cameron Mathison (Drew) leads an all-new social media video to try to get some clues and some background on the lead suspects, and to connect the dots full-circle to his Port Charles alter-ego.
Mathison shares, “I’m passing the phone to the love of my life who has been wrongly accused in my attempted murder.” Of course, he is talking about Willow Tait! In kind, Katelyn MacMullen as Willow, says, “I’m passing the phone to my ex-husband, who is framing me for custody of our kids.”
Next up, Rory Gibson, who as Michael shares, “I’m passing the phone to my mother, who will go way too far to protect me,” and then Laura Wright as Carly adds, “I’m passing the phone to the selfish mother who threw her daughter under the bus to save herself.”

That brings in Cynthia Watros as Nina, who explains,”I’m passing the phone to my friend who exposed my past fling with Drew right before his wedding to my daughter.” Nina is speaking of Curtis Ashford who dropped the mother of all bombshell’s on Willow, hoping it would stop her marriage to Drew.
Next, Curtis played by Donnell Turner brings it back around to Portia.”I’m passing the phone to my wife, who let Drew’s blackmailing get in between our marriage,” he snarls. That brings up Portia played by Brook Kerr, who has been looking like either the prime suspect or is being framed by multiple parties to make it look like she is the guilty party.
Portia says, “I’m passing the phone to the Congressman who got what he deserved.” In the end, it’s Cameron Mathison who buttons up the game of telephone with some juicy intel that this crime may be solved sooner than we may think! “Stay tuned in General Hospital to find out who shot Drew,’ says Mathison.
Take a look below at the GH stars and their characters giving us another look at the backstory of how we got to where we are today.
Then, weigh-in via the comment section below, and let us know if you still think, Willow, Michael, Portia, Curtis, Carly or Nina, could still be the shooter, or do you think it’s someone else? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
Pass the phone to whomever, just end this storyline please!
Amen!
This storyline has gone on WAY too long. At this point I don’t care who shot Drew.
Love how this storyline gets people riled up.
Part of the issue is Drew’s increased screen time in 2025. Through the end of October, Drew appeared in 130 episodes (second only to Carly). This compares to 78 episodes in the same time period in 2024 (behind 13 other cast members).
That said, Matheson continues to perfectly play the role of the town’s least liked citizen.
This has been a great storyline IMO! Can’t wait to find out who shot the congressman. Interesting that the phone was not passed to Tracy, who found Drew.
Detective Jason Morgan will solve the case.
Jacinda
Sure hope Jason solves it soon. Then can Willow stop mooning over Drew. She is just not the type for him, nor is Chase. He is so stupid, putting her before his wife.
I think Ezra did it !!
My money’s on Scout! She finally decided that enough was enough. Besides, if it were anyone that TRULY hated Drew, he would have been shot in the head!
My money is on drew I think it’s obvious he hired someone to shoot him and frame Michael because drew only wants Michael blamed no one else
You would have to have one HELL of a lot of faith and trust in somebody to allow them to shoot you twice in the back, and believe that neither death or paralysis would be the likely outcome.
Is Drew mentally twisted enough to hire somebody to shoot him? Maybe. But he’s also too paranoid to trust anybody like that. So, not likely that this is a “Bob Roberts” scenario
It makes sense drew hired someone he wants to be blame Micheal no one else
I agree. Would make this storyline interesting. Really would blow a lot of minds!
I think it’s Jacinda but would prefer for it to be Willow, who has blocked it out of her mind.
I would prefer it to be Willow as well. I just can’t stand that character anymore- they’ve ruined her. And is it ever going to come to light that Willow was the one playing sinister games with Sasha’s baby? A lot of folks around Michael
are confused as to why he thinks she shouldn’t be trusted around the kids. Wouldn’t that little fact coming to light justify his feelings? As far as Jacinda is concerned, I don’t understand what her motive would be. The crime was an act of passion and that wouldn’t include Jacinda.
I’m passing the phone to Monica Quatermain. I believe she discovered that he was not the real Drew; therefore, she set out to get rid of him. Not liking what he was doing to the family, and the fact that she was dying anyway, she decided to take Drew down with her.
Comet or Outback are more likely than Monica.
No. Just no. Monica didn’t do it. I wish folks would stop suggesting that.
What in the actual f**k?
We think it’s someone else.
OK. Drew blackmailed Portia to “shoot” him.but not kill him jusy do he can frame Michael. That’s my theory and im sticking to it! I hope we find out soon because this story is getting old.
Drew hired someone to shoot him and frame Michael so he could go to prison and willow could have The kids
That’s not actually a bad theory. The thing is though is that Portia actually HAS a good alibi – but it’s not one she wants to use. At least not until she’s in her second trimester and has that paternity test done. Because the night that Drew got shot was also the night that she hooked up with Dr Isaiah. So she would play that card to get out of prison if she had to, but wouldn’t want to mention it right now, because she don’t know who’s the baby daddy yet!
Would be interesting to see what Portia’s reaction would be if she finds out that not only were Trina and her boyfriend Kai present at the scene of the crime, but that they also disposed of the blackmail material which would have arguably made Portia & Curtis into viable suspects in Dragon Chow Drew’s shooting.
Drew hired someone to shoot him and frame Michael
And God forbid Portia tell Curtis the truth who may go on to be the next Taggert.
ummm I want to pass the phone to whomever can tell me where the F*ck is Anna? I want Anna back,where is Finola Hughes? Someone tell me!!!!!
With what is going on with Sidwell and her granddaughter, she is desperately needed, and Dante is in over his head as interim police commissioner dealing with his son being arrested. Worst possible time to have Anna vanish.
She’s dealing with a short term illness according to Facebook, but who knows if that is true.
“Facebook”, a.k.a. the known place for A.I.-generated fake spoilers. Unless Ms Hughes has said anything, then it isn’t true.
Oh, excuse me…
Sidwell hired someone
It’s definitely a woman, the shadow was to small for a man. They also had earrings on.
I don’t think Michael did it cause Drew would not be walking around
I still don’t understand the point of drew getting shot so far it has not changed anything to make things worse the story is over rated and boring
It’s time to reveal drews shooter and move on

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.
