Despite growing up in the mob, Michael sings praises of Carly as a mother to Brenda. Brenda remains adamant that Sonny love Lucian as his own, but we realize that Sonny’s concern is valid and Suzanne reveals her agenda. Jason tells Sam that if she wants to have a child, he is willing to try. Michael affirms that Jason would be a wonderful father. Seeing the rekindled brotherly love between Lucky and Nik, Liz is unable to pull the trigger on telling the truth. Matt urges Maxie to keep her mouth shut about the truth of Aiden’s paternity. Liz finds Nik with the results in hand. Siobhan brings Lucky back from the darkness of grief, and they make love. Jason warns Carly of Johnny may be recruiting Michael for the mob. Johnny visits Anthony in prison, who claims no involvement with Brandon’s murder. Carly confronts Johnny and we see Anthony knows more than he claims. Jason and Sam finally decide they should try to have a baby. Liz realizes Nik has not yet looked at the results and dissembles. Siobhan plans to leave for Ireland without telling Lucky. Patrick and Robin have their first official marriage counseling session, leaving them both feeling gut-punched and daunted.  A worried Robin confides in Maxie her fears that Patrick will evolve past her. Lisa masks a narcotic as an herbal supplement, giving it to Kristina. Kristina asks Ethan to the prom, but he turns her down.

Carly and Sonny try their own methods to keep Michael from joining the mob. Anthony urges Johnny to get Michael under his wing before Sonny interferes. Anthony tries to hire Shawn, but he refuses. Sonny gets a great birthday surprise from the kids – but an innocent comment from Molly sets Carly off on Brenda. Jax offers Shawn $10 million to leave Port Charles and never look back. Lisa comes on to Johnny, pretending she is fully over Patrick. Patrick and Robin hope Kristina will take over babysitting Emma. Concern for Michael is growing on several fronts. Abby counsels Michael that he has nothing to prove and instead should pursue the best life possible as Jason advised. Lulu visits Johnny, appealing to him not to involve Michael in the mob. Dante gets word there is cell phone footage implicating Michael in Brandon’s murder. Ronnie advises Michael to confess or Dante will lose his badge. Carly and Brenda have a showdown and Carly warns Brenda NEVER to come between her kids and Sonny. Jax visits Brenda, and they get into a heated discussion over Sonny’s dangerous influence on children. Shawn refuses Jax, insisting he wants to see through protecting Josslyn from Franco. Sam enjoys teasing Jason about what happens during a gynecological visit. Carly finds Sam in tears after her appointment with Dr. Kelly Lee.

Sonny confronts Anthony in jail, and then presses Dante to break whatever laws necessary to protect his brother. Diane is concerned Michael is covering for Abby. Ronnie arrives at Abby’s with an arrest warrant. Johnny insists to Lulu that he sees Michael as a kindred spirit. Johnny arrives home to find Anthony ensconced in his penthouse – free from prison and ready to wreak havoc. Sonny overhears Jax’s warnings to Brenda, and they have an angry confrontation, leaving Brenda shaken. Jason reels from Michael’s words that he has modeled his life after Jason. Sam arrives home with the news that she is able to have Jason’s baby.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Learns Britt Died and Tells Anna He Has Been Working For Cates Since November 2021

On the Tuesday, March 26th of General Hospital, Anna (Finola Hughes) and the viewers learn about where Jason (Steve Burton) has been for over two and half years. However, Jason gets some news of his own.

Anna is visiting Jason at the PCPD interrogation room. She asks him if he shot Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), which he flatly denies. Anna believes him, but she tells Jason it doesn’t matter, because video footage shows him on the roof at the time of the shooting

When talk turns to Jason not willing to speak without his lawyer present, Anna can’t grasp why Jason would instead spend an hour alone talking with John Cates (Adam J. Harrington).

It is then that Anna brings up that John went by “Jagger” and that the two of them knew each other in high school. Jason doesn’t recall much of his time in high school following his brain injury, but then he gets furious realizing John knew about “Jason’s” past. That is when Jason slams the table and tells Anna, “I’ve been working for John Cates since November 2021.”

Next, Jason explains further that he has been working as an informant for the FBI. Anna wants to know how this came about and he tells her that after the tunnel collapsed, and he couldn’t make it to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud)… all of a sudden he sees Anna’s face drop.  Anna is the first person to tell him that Britt died and was murdered. She tells Jason the killer is in custody, but he continues to be shocked, overwhelmed with tears welling up in his eyes. Realizing he has to pivot to save his life, Jason continues telling Anna how he wound up working with John.

Jason explains that after the tunnel collapse in Greece, FBI agents grabbed him and placed him under arrest and took him to Quantico where he met John. At Quantico, John played a recording of RICO violations and offered Jason a deal if he agreed to be an informant against Pikeman, the illegal arms dealer.

Anna hears from Jason that he thinks Pikeman is selling illegal arms to anyone flagged by the NSA but has ties to the WSB which they needed a civilian to infiltrate their organization as a military soldier, a mercenary.

Jason tells Anna he was a part of the team brought into eliminate Sonny (Maurice Benard). Every time an attempt was made on Sonny’s life over the last two years, a different team was sent to do the job. Anna gets furious when she learns that John told Jason his job was to kill Sonny and she was with John at the warehouse that night. Jason ensured the sniper missed Sonny and left the rifle behind. However, they were supposed to meet an extraction team. Before he was shot, Dante saw it was Jason on the roof and when he turned around with his hands over his head, Dante was shot by the other guy. Jason says if Dante dies, he’ll be charged with capital murder and then will be useless to the FBI.

Meanwhile, John visits Bobbie’s and runs into Carly (Laura Wright). She learns Jason is in custody and is going to head to the PCPD. Before she does, Carly has some words with Cates when she learns not only does John have a vendetta against Sonny, but Jason too.  Carly tells John he should recuse himself from the case.

So, what did you think about the moment when Jason learned Britt died? What do you think of Jason’s return storyline thus far and what we learned about Jagger/Jason and more? Comment below. But first, check out a moment from today’s GH with Jason and Anna.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Is Danny Becoming a Mini-Jason?

Which one of Jason’s (Steve Burton) sons would wind up being closest to their dad in personality traits when they are all grown-up? While many thought it would be Jake (Hudson West). However from Tuesday’s, March 19th episode of General Hospital, it looks to be Danny (Asher Antonyyzn).

One of the best things about Jason’s return, and that of Steve Burton, is that we will now get to see father/son scenes, their relationships and how they have been affected by Jason’s life and his absences now that the actors have aged-up.

With Hudson West as Jake (whom we have seen grown up before our eyes), and now Asher Antonyzyn as Danny, it looks like GH fans are in for some heartfelt and dramatic scenes in the months ahead.

However, a major clue dropped in key scenes between Jason and Danny on yesterday’s GH. Danny stops by the Quartermaine boathouse to see his dad where he has been hiding out, just as Jason tried to stand up and is unsteady on his feet recovering from his gun shoot wound. Danny rushes to his dad’s side, so he does not fall.

The father and son get into a conversation where Jason wants to know more about what Danny likes, after Danny admits he doesn’t like school. He tells Jason he doesn’t have a phone. But that he likes skiing, dirt biking, mountain biking, etc. Danny even says he wants to take auto shop, too!

He tells his dad, he would like to play football, but his mom (Sam) wouldn’t sign the waiver for him to play because she was worried about brain damage. That is when Danny questioned Jason, “You had brain damage, right?” Jason says, “yes,” but it was from a car accident, not playing football. The two have their talk interrupted by Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), who tells Danny he needs to get back to the house.

Meanwhile at GH, when Aiden (Enzo De Angelis) stops by to talk to his mom, Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst), he tells her he is worried about Jake. Apparently, Jake believes Jason is guilty and is the person who shot Dante (Dominic Zamprogna). Aiden tells his mom that Jake will not discuss his feelings with her, because Jake believes no matter what she will defend Jason.

So, it appears that Danny is becoming the mini-Jason of GH.  Do you like the way GH is seemingly writing the story? Do you think Jake and Danny will ultimately be on opposite sides of their opinions of their dad, long term? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Explains Part of Where He Has Been; What Do You Think Will be Revealed as the Rest of the Story?

GH fans received a part of the backstory of just where Jason (Steve Burton) has been for the last two plus years on the Thursday, March 16th episode of the ABC daytime drama series.

In story, as Jason (Steve Burton) is hiding out at the Quartermaine boat house, Michael (Chad Duell) brings him a change of clothes and when Jason lifts up his sweatshirt, and is in then in only a tank-top, his arm is exposed showing his tattoo. Michael is shocked to see that on Jason (in real life, Burton now has that tattoo).

When Michael questions Jason as to where he has been for over two years after the tunnel collapsed on him, Jason explains. He tells Michael he found his way out of the tunnel. However, on his way out there were two gunmen waiting fo him who kidnapped him and he was taken prisoner.

Next, Jason shares he was flown out of Greece and ended up in a windowless room. He reveals a man wanted him to do a job and had leverage on him to force him to agree to take it.  When Michael asks Jason what exactly was the job, he says he’s been working as a private military contractor, i.e., a mercenary.

On the night of Dante’s (Dominic Zamprogna) shooting, Jason explains he made his way to Port Charles and was working with the other shooter, Hamish. However, he was unaware that the target was Sonny (Maurice Benard).  When Jason realized what was up, he made sure Hamish missed his shot. Michael inquires if Jason would have even come back to Port Charles if Sonny wasn’t the target.

At that point, Jason shared that the job he was given isn’t done, and if he doesn’t finish it, bad things will happen. At the end of the episode, Jason is having a flashback where it’s revealed he is in custody at Quantico and it’s John “Jagger” Cates (Adam J. Harrington) from the FBI who is holding him there. John tells Jason he has a recording proving RICO violations that will carrying a twenty-year sentence. We fade to black.

So, what do you think is really going on here? Jason looks to be working with John Cates and the FBI as part of a deal to bring someone to justice to get out of a 20-year sentence for RICO violations. But, who is the man that Jason and potentially John want to bring down? What did you think of the backstory of Jason’s two-year disappearance thus far? Share your thoughts in the comment section, But first, check out the key scenes from yesterday’s GH below.
