General Hospital predictions suspect Spencer Cassadine may very well be baby Ace Cassadine’s father instead of his brother. And when Esme Prince gets her memories back, we may learn that she’s been lying to everyone on the ABC sudser.

Spencer Cassadine’s Strong Connection to Baby Ace on General Hospital

Currently, on GH, Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) is fully devoted to his baby brother, Ace Cassadine (Jay and Joey Clay) — almost a little too much. Of course, it’s understandable that Spencer wants to protect Ace.

He doesn’t want his little brother to experience the same loneliness and disappointment he did during his childhood. He believes that he needs to shield Ace from their father, Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss).

Although, Nik is still running from country to country, plotting on General Hospital. While it’s admirable for Spencer to step up the way he has for his brother, it’s causing problems.

In order for him to be a part of Ace’s daily life, he must co-parent with his ex-girlfriend Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl). Indeed, it’s putting a strain on his relationship with his girlfriend, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali).

No doubt, Trina has been more than understanding and patient. But from time to time, she needs to remind Spencer that little Ace isn’t his full-time responsibility because he is not his father. Or is he?

Evil Esme’s Last Scheme on GH

Before Esme was hit with amnesia on General Hospital, she was a horrible person — she was downright evil. Indeed, it makes total sense seeing as her parents are Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Lindstrom) and Heather Webber (Alley Mills).

Plus, she was following Ryan’s orders when she seduced Nikolas. So, it wouldn’t be surprising if she lied about Nik being her baby’s father. That way, she could split him and Ava Jerome (Maura West) up so she’d be free for Ryan.

Plus, she’d have access to the entire Cassadine fortune on General Hospital. Besides that, Esme was furious with Spencer because he was in love with Trina, and she wanted to punish him.

So, it’s more likely that she was already pregnant with Spencer’s baby when she slept with Nik. And her last devious move before she lost her memory was to lie to Spencer and then drop the bomb that Ace is his son.

General Hospital Predictions: Spencer Is the Father

Recently, on GH, there have been a few subtle hints suggesting Spencer could be Ace’s dad — not his brother. But the biggest one is that Trina continues to point out to Spencer that he and Ace are not father and son.

Of course, she wants him to have a big role in his life. But not so much that he has to spend all his time with Esme and not much time with her. Plus, she believes that Ace needs his real father around, and that’s Nik. Or so she thinks.

Chances are Spencer will turn out to be the daddy on General Hospital. Indeed, it will cause a lot of angst for him and Trina, and it may be a deal-breaker for her. Their relationship may not survive if it turns out he’s bonded to Esme forever.

There may be some major twists ahead on GH. Be sure to tune in every day to see if Spencer Cassadine is Ace’s daddy on the ABC daytime drama.

It was the week many had been waiting for on General Hospital, someone finally discovered Nina’s secret… Michael! But then, nothing happened. Actually, that pretty much sums up most of this week in Port Charles… nothing much happened.

Michael Knows… So Now What?

So Michael finally found out that it was Nina who turned his mother and Drew into the SEC… and then sat on the info. The storylines shifted, and we were left waiting for the next ball to drop. All this build-up with the wedding, and family bonding, only to be left hanging. As I noted in last week’s column, I could see Michael forcing Nina to leave his father, and town, or he’ll reveal what she did. It just seems like he’s not going to expose her, but use this info to his advantage instead.

It still boggles my mind to continue to hear Drew, and even Michael, downplay the crime of insider trading. Drew mentioned to Carly that the person who turned them in is responsible for his and Carly’s suffering, and Michael made a comment about how his mom’s “minor crime” was used and twisted into something bigger than it was by the person who turned her and Drew into the SEC to cause maximum damage and pain to his family. What power Nina had in forcing the SEC’s hand with what she knew!

Then there is Michael, who spent the last year plotting to send his father to jail, only to use his mobster dad as a threat to force Martin to confirm it was Nina who had him call the SEC. Seems like Michael isn’t too different from Sonny, and is willing to use power, violence and blackmail when it suits his needs! I still want to see Michael in the hot seat when someone learns the truth about his scheme involving Dex, and really hope that intel falls in Nina’s lap!

All Roads Lead to Pautauk

After Mason was caught attempting to kill Ava, and Sonny learned that Cyrus had been released from Pentonville, he finally connected the dots that Cyrus was the big bad boss who has been targetting him. It took him long enough! That no one ever thought to consider it was Cyrus all along, who was the biggest threat in Pentonville to Sonny, is absurd. But as I said last week, it feels like this storyline had no long-term planning, and was just made up as it progressed. What could have been if they had only stuck with the mysterious female boss as it started out…

Meanwhile, Laura’s home and Cyrus is eager to connect with her. Things should get interesting when more dots are connected and it comes out that Cyrus, Austin and Mason had the very much alive Nikolas all along. Which begs the question, when is someone going to tell Ava that her ex isn’t dead? I mean I know she went through a lot this week, but come on! Then again, she did ignore Austin’s attempts to call her…

Then there is Mason, who is like a bad toe fungus that won’t go away. Though if Dante had shot and killed him, he’d probably be in a lot more trouble than he already is for shooting an unarmed civilian.

Deception Disappointment

Much as with Cyrus being the big bad boss, the Deception and Deceptor storyline started out strong but just fizzled out. It made great use of the vets, it brought in fantastic guest appearances from older ABC soaps, and it even had a good little mystery going as to who Tracy was working with and why.

However, Lucy caved into Tracy’s demands and gave up 51 percent of her company and her ELQ voting stock to save the company. The end? And then when Lois confronted Tracy for blackmailing her daughter for greed, Tracy revealed she went after the company to give it to Brook Lynn in the end so she’d have something other than music to fall back on. Say what? Why would Tracy even think Brook Lynn would want to own the company that was stolen from her friends? The friends who currently are former friends who don’t trust her? Though thanks to Felicia’s advice, it looks like Maxie will forgive Brook Lynn soon.

Then there is the fact that the entire mystery about Martin, The Deceptor, and his ex-wife Blair just up and went nowhere. The Deceptor is being marketed again, and what happened to Blair blackmailing Martin into marrying Lucy or else? Did the scab writers simply come in and decide to write their own endings to these storylines? Because that’s what it feels like.

The Bad Seed and Other Odds’n’Ends

Laura, having been brought up to speed on what Charlotte’s been up to, managed to do what Valentin couldn’t and connect her behavior to Victor. This storyline is still not sitting well with me, as it feels like a stretch to think Charlotte would believe Victor’s lies over what she knows to be true. There needs to be more of a backstory here, more conditioning going on than just a letter and some tarot cards from Grandpa…

In Friday’s episode, Liz told Drew that Jake was dating Charlotte, the most popular girl in the school. Meanwhile, Charlotte confided in Laura that she had no friends at school. Did the writers not communicate with one another on this script?

Alexis channeled her inner lawyer in dealing with Judge Kim, and it looks like she’s succeeded in getting Drew’s sentence remitted and helping to free him. The conversations between Alexis and Gregory about her love for the law, and Judge Kim bringing up her disbarment, actually had me hopeful that Alexis may get her license back. Alexis as an editor has just become stale.

So even though “Eddie” thought he knew Lois, he still really hasn’t recognized her. She was only a face in his dream. Still, it seems that is an indication his memory could finally start to return. However, that would be even more bad news for Nina, as he too knows she tipped off the SEC.

Sasha’s wanting to relocate is understandable, but we know she won’t be going anywhere. Cody and Maxie have both been advised to tell her that they don’t want her to leave. Plus, “the move” just seems to be the catalyst for Cody finally admitting the truth that MAC is his father to someone other than Dante. That’s a story I’d like to see front and center now, along with Cody and Sasha becoming something more than just friends.

I almost felt a little bad for Spencer this week, as everyone was putting him on notice about the fact that he wasn’t Ace’s dad and had to accept he might not play as big of a role in Ace’s life in the future as he thinks he is. Both Trina and Kevin drilled that into him, but he is clearly living in denial. Trina is also onto the fact that Esme is into Spencer. Finally, someone is seeing it! Sorry ‘Sprina’ fans, but it’s looking to me like Spencer could do something rash and marry Esme in order to keep his place in Ace’s life. Something is going to happen between them, it seems inevitable that Spencer is going to have to choose between Ace and Trina and soon. It also could pave the way for Nikolas’ return to Port Charles.

So Finn’s friend has a cabin in the mountains, and he and Liz are off to have a romantic weekend and stay in it. Why does it feel like this cabin is going to be located in Pautauk?
