Agent John Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) popped back into Port Charles out of the clear blue sky. One minute John “Brennan” was sniffing around Bobbie’s (formerly known as Kelly’s), then the next he whipped out his FBI badge and began flashing is all over PC.

Previously, General Hospital news reports confirmed that Adam Harrington joined GH’s cast as a past character. He took over the role as Jagger from Antonio Sabato Jr. The change caused a stir among General Hospital fans, and they took their concerns to social media.

Does Agent Cates Have a Vendetta Against Jason?

So, why did General Hospital decide to bring back Jagger, aka, Agent John Cates? According to recent GH spoilers and rumors, Jagger is the string that ties some PC people together. Some find it interesting that Jagger returned around the same time as Jason, also while Dex Heller’s (Evan Hofer) is in question. When he first arrived in Port Charles, Dex’s family background was a mystery. Then, he revealed that he didn’t get along with his brothers, and his home life was pretty rocky. That’s when rumors really began to take flight. Suddenly, GH rumors claimed that Dex was adopted. And his biological parents are none other than Jason Morgan (Quartermaine) and Karen Wexler.

What do you think? John is displaying red flags when it comes to Jason. Agent Cates’s personal vendetta against Jason Morgan could very well be because of Karen… and Dex!

On December 18th, 2020, Sonny and Carly’s relationship changed forever. That’s when he and Julian fell off a bridge. Although Julian Jerome was confirmed dead, Sonny Corinthos’s body was never found. He was presumed dead and his family had to go on without him.

According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Sonny and Carly’s failing external relationships aren’t direct indicators for a CarSon reunion. Despite the fact that Sonny filed for divorce and Drew is breaking up with Carly, the mobster and the former hotel owner may not make their way back to each other just yet.

Sonny and Ava’s bond has grown stronger over the last few months. Like two peas in a pod, Ava Jerome and Sonny Corinthos have mobster blood running through their veins. Sonny is under a lot of pressure and there’s little hope for his marriage to Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros). Furthermore, Jason Morgan’s return has driven a wedge between Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison). Carly’s feelings for Jason are so immense that she can’t even describe them with words. Sadly, Drew came to a realization that Carly will never love him as much as she loves Jason. Not even as much as she loves Sonny. So, where does that leave any hope for a CarSon reunion?

General Hospital Spoilers: Carly and Jason’s Bond Is Stronger Than Ever

Laura Wright said it herself. Carly stands by Jason, no matter what. She believes in him wholeheartedly, but she can’t pass along her faith in him to others. Sadly, it’s up to each individual to decide whether or not they believe in Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) innocence. Right now, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) is torn whine his son lies in a hospital bed, and Jason Morgan is thought to be the reason.

Carly Stands By Jason When Others Doubt Him

General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Carly’s faith in Jason grows stronger as others doubt him. Her support is unwavering for her best friend. Sadly, even Sam has doubts about Jason’s involvement with Dante’s (Dominic Zamprogna) shooting. She knows that it doesn’t sound right in her heart, but Sam may seek out for someone to blame.

According to the latest GH spoilers and rumors, Carly and Jason’s bond is stronger than ever. So far, only Carly and his son Danny have displayed blind faith in Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). Not even Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco) is completely convinced that Jason didn’t shoot her boyfriend Dante. Besides, Sam’s objectivity may be compromised as Dante fights for his life.

Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) is tired of taking the back seat. Since his return from Pentonville, Drew is a different person. As expected, his new lease on life has been a shock to those who are closest to him, including Carly.

However, the adverse impact of Drew’s harder personality doesn’t end with Carly being the only recipient of his wrath. In fact, the mother of his daughter Scout was the first to notice the change within Drew.

According to General Hospital spoilers and previews, Jason’s return has a devastating impact on Drew. The old Drew may have taken a few steps back and allowed Carly to take time to figure things out in regard to Jason. But this new Drew doesn’t have the patience for all of that. Instead, he’s got a no-nonsense attitude about Jason’s return and he’s not afraid to tell Carly how he sees it.

Drew Can’t Compete With Jason

GH spoilers tease that Carly and Drew can’t see eye to eye on this, which leads to irreconcilable misunderstandings about Jason. Previously, General Hospital news reports confirmed that Laura Wright spilled the tea on Carly and Jason.

Wright admitted that Carly stands by Jason no matter what, and adds that some problem can’t handle that. Recent GH spoilers and rumors hint that Drew definitely can’t handle Carly’s loyalty to Jason. At this point it looks like Carly and Drew are over for good.

General Hospital Spoilers: Sonny Breaks The News To Sam

Detective Dante Falconer (Dominic Zamprogna) is stable after having been shot in the line of duty. His family continues to pace the floors as his life hangs in the balance. Thankfully, his mom Olivia (Lisa LoCicero), and his girlfriend Sam (Kelly Monaco) have each other for support.

The recent hype surrounding Jason Morgan’s rebirth has led to many fans questioning his love life. According to General Hospital recaps, Jason was involved with Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud). He’s currently unaware of her passing, but Jason and Britt had something special.

90s hopefuls hold out for two main possibilities. The JaSam fans want Jason and Sam to get back together, of course. And the Liason fans still hold a candle in hope of a Liz (Rebecca Herbst) and Jason rekindling. But first, these ladies already have someone special in their lives. In fact, Sam has Dante and Elizabeth has Dr. Finn (Michael Easton). Next, Liz and Sam need to become aware of Jason’s status.

According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Sonny breaks the news to Sam this week. The recent GH previews show Sonny and Sam discussing who shot Dante. Mistakenly, Sonny believes that Jason shot Dante. How will he finally learn the truth?

General Hospital Spoilers: Jason Morgan Works Undercover- He Has Good Reason For What He’s Doing

General Hospital fans and Port Charles residents alike cannot figure out why Jason would go against Sonny. Stone Cold is seemingly against Sonny. From the looks of things, Jason’s prepared to hurt Sonny when given the chance.

Things aren’t always as they seem since clues indicate that Jason doesn’t want to hurt Sonny- or anyone else from his past. Instead, General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest that Jason’s (Steve Burton) protecting Sonny. Everyone knows that Jason’s highly skilled at what he does. The man doesn’t miss a shot. According to General Hospital recaps, the attack at the island was one of the first clues that Jason is the “shooter.” Like Ava said, Jason knows Sonny’s organization inside and out. Including the layout of the island.

Jason Works For The Enemy…

Since no one can figure out why Jason would ever go against Sonny, let alone shoot at him, perhaps it’s because she’s pretending? GH rumors hint that Jason Morgan works undercover to protect Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Is it possible that Jason is working with one of Sonny’s enemies, but only to oversee the operation, and to ensure Sonny’s safety? We all know that Jason would never hurt his best friend, they’re like family.

Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) has it out for Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), now and always. Their feud dates back to the early 1990s when Sonny was as bad as they come. Strip clubs, drugs, vulnerable women- Sonny was involved in it all.

Jagger Forced Jason to Work for the FBI

Apparently, times hasn’t healed Jagger’s wounds as he still feels pain from what happened to Karen. It might sound like over dramatic excuses to Sonny, but Jagger is very serious. Like Ava said, Jagger will never believe that Sonny was trying to help Karen all those years ago. Furthermore, Ava’s mob experience makes her no stranger to Sonny’s situation. She knows damn well than an FBI agent with a grudge is not someone you want on your tail. Presumably, an agent that has an issue with a certain criminal will hint them down until they’re caught.

General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Jagger is holding back. He knows more about the situation than he’d like to admit, and he’s more involved than he wants anyone to know. His anger and high emotional reactions suggest that he has it out for Sonny. The FBI is desperate to bust Sonny so they use the perfect tool to get the job done.

According to the latest GH news and spoilers, Burton revealed the decision for Steve to return came before the recent writer switch. As a result, Jason’s storyline took a different direction.

GH spoilers reveal that Burton opened up to Soap Opera Digest about his storyline. “So apparently there was a whole different story planned and then the head writer switch happened and then they kind of rebooted (the story arc). I know Patrick (Mulcahey, one of the new head writers) a little bit, but I really know Elizabeth Korte (who was promoted to co-head writer).” Burton disclosed to the news outlet.

“There’s no one in the building that loves that show, knows the history of the character, and is invested in it 100 percent than Elizabeth. There has never been a more deserved promotion, ever. Once I know that she was (one of the head writers), I was like, ‘Oh, this is gonna be good! I cannot wait.’ And it has been exactly that. Everything has been amazing.”

It sounds like Steve is just as excited about his comeback as the rest of us! His faith in the new writing team gives hope for an exciting future at General Hospital.
