GH Getting Closer to Unveiling the Fluke Mystery

General Hospital has never had a better kept secret. Fan reactions range from all ends of the spectrum when discussing the never ending Fluke mystery. For a year now, residents of Port Charles along with General Hospital fans have been wondering who in the world could be impersonating Luke Spencer.

As far as the majority of the PC residents go, they think that Cesar Faison was the one duping the town for all those months. We the audience know that is not the case. Julian Jerome also knows that Cesar Faison is not actually Fluke, but merely a decoy to throw off Anna and the rest of the PCPD along with Tracy and Luke’s family and friends.

Luke’s sister, Bobbie Spencer has always had a close relationship with him. The two siblings have been through a lot together throughout the years. On today’s episode of GH, Bobbie was talking to who she thought was her brother. Unknowingly to Bobbie, he is still an impostor. In conversation, Bobbie brought up their cousin, Bill Eckert. Bill and Luke never really saw eye to eye, although the two were identical cousins. (Strange, we know). Judging from Fake Luke’s reaction when Bobbie was talking about Bill in a negative way, even bringing up the way he treated his son Sly, there is reason to believe that the Luke impostor may be Bill, Sly, or have some ties to that story line involvement.

General Hospital rumors have claimed Bill Eckert to be a great explanation for someone being able to run around town with Luke’s face and body for all this time. Since there wouldn’t have to be any plastic surgery or masks involved, it seems to make perfect sense. Of course, like every other theory fans have had, there are holes in this one as well. Such as the fact that Bill Eckert died some time ago. We all know that soap opera death is never permanent, and there is a very likely chance that Bill could have resurrected from the dead and stolen his identical cousin’s identity -and life.

Do you think the writers are getting closer to revealing Fluke’s true identity? Could Bobbie and Fluke’s scene today have dropped the bomb? Let us know if you think Fluke is actually Bill Eckert.

The Spencers Are Keeping A Secret!

Just as we thought the whole Fluke story couldn’t get any more frustrating and complicated, it turns out that a new aspect in the story does just that.

General Hospital spoilers reveal that for the week of January 5th, the audience will learn that the Spencer family is hiding a secret. Luke’s sister Bobbie Spencer, has a conversation with Fluke, and they are in deep discussion about an old family secret that has been kept under wraps for many years.

General Hospital spoilers also state that Bobbie shares a secret with her grandson, Michael Corinthos, who is now working on turning the old Brownstones into a clinic. Does Bobbie’s secret have anything to do with that old building?

A Frisco Jones Return?

In the last year or so, the executives at GH have been known for bringing back fan favorites and vet characters. With all of the WSB and Frisco Jones talk that went on last week, could the writers be giving the audience a hint? Last week when Maxie was in her air plane dilemma, she reached out to her father, Frisco Jones to come to her aid and get her home to Nathan before the new year. Also last week, Agent Sloan brought up the fact that Frisco was now the head of the WSB to Anna Devane.

If Jack Wagner does return to his role as Frisco Jones, there are many possible story lines he could tie into. For one, his daughter Maxie will always hold a special place in her heart for her father, also he has many long time friends and colleagues that could be part of a Frisco story line. Since he is now head of the WSB, there is potential there as well with the involvement in the entire Fluke, Jerry Jacks, Helena Cassadine saga, since Victor Cassadine and Anna Devane have been linked to the WSB for many years.

Many times, name dropping like this is a way for the writers to hint that a certain character may be on their way back to Port Charles… but not always. Jack Wagner (Frisco Jones) was most recently part of General Hospital during the 2013 Nurses Ball. When the character was written off, fans had expressed opinions that implied their favorite character had been written out of character this go around. Jack Wagner himself had trouble with the direction the writers had taken Frisco and it was no secret that Wagner left the show on rocky terms with the executives. That being said, are the General Hospital rumors about Frisco returning true, or is it pretty unlikely to see Wagner back in the role of Frisco Jones? Perhaps fences have been mended between the actor and TPTB over at General Hospital. General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated with any information confirming or denying this GH rumor.

What do you think? Would you like to see Frisco return to Port Charles to possibly redeem his character from his most recent visit? Comment below!
