General Hospital spoilers indicate things are about to heat up as the intensity of shocking news flows through Port Charles. You do NOT want to miss this week on, General Hospital!
Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) is trying everything in her power to hold on to Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth). He has been diagnosed with a brain tumor which has the potential for him to become a danger to others as he was back before his tumor was treated.
Franco (then played by James Franco) terrorized the people of Port Charles, especially Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). Now that Franco is faced with such a horrible diagnosis, he fears that he will revert back to that dangerous man who once inflicted so much pain on others.
General Hospital spoilers indicate there is a long road ahead for Franco’s struggles with this brain tumor, including the risk of the wrath of Peter August (Wes Ramsey). Franco doesn’t want to become the man he once was and has asked Jason Morgan to kill him if ever he became a danger to his family and others. Sam spilled the tea RO Liz, letting her in on Franco’s request. Not only was Liz furious that Franco would ask Jason to do such a thing, and without discussing the matter, she is furious with Jason for his response.
General Hospital previews show Elizabeth tracking down Jason to confront him, expressing her anger, and demanding answers. Liz and Jason are former lovers and share a child, Jake Webber. She has always held Jason in high regard, but this time she doesn’t think he’s so great. Could Jason’s agreement with Franco be the end of a life long friendship and mutual respect between Elizabeth and Jason?
Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco) have been to Hell and back together. They’re love has seen them through so much darkness, it’s hard not to think of them as being together forever. Late last year, Sam decided it would be best if she and Jason went their separate ways in terms of the relationship, since at the time, high risk of threatening danger lurked over Jason, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright), and those close to them. Due to the escalated threat of violence from Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober), Sam decided to call it quits with Jason.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Sam is on edge now that she and Elizabeth Webber Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) discussed Franco’s current brain tumor diagnosis. Immediately, memories of the Hell Franco put herself and Jason through came rushing in, as Liz insisted things were different this time. Jason was there for Sam during Franco’s torture, and to be honest, Jason went through his own form of second hand torture, knowing what was happening to the love of his life. As we know, Franco led Sam and Jason to believe he had raped her, and as a result, he had her believing she was pregnant with his child.
General Hospital rumors indicate Sam could have a change of heart about her separation from Jason. He is the only one who knows the intimate details of what Franco put them through, and she likely won’t want to face that fear again alone.
General Hospital rumors hint that Jason may be headed in a different direction- with Britt (Kelly Thiebaud)! Will Sam regret her last decision to separate now that she fears Franco’s diagnosis and Jason is already ready to move on?
