on the ABC
daytime drama, General Hospital
, played by Bradley
. He is the father of Kiefer Bauer.
Warren first appears on March 17, 2010, when Lucky Spencer
questions him in order to establish a timeline of the night of Kristina Davis's first attack. Being a lawyer, Warren is resistant and dismissive, but eventually agrees. After a bit of questioning, Mac comes to them and says Mayor Floyd feels the Bauers have shown good faith by coming in and their interview is over. The Bauers are sympathetic to Kristina, but feel since her father is a mob boss, anyone could have attacked her.
Warren reappears on April 2, where he speaks with Jasper "Jax" Jacks
and Skye Quartermaine
, and subsequently speaks to Kiefer about Lucky and Dante
's ongoing investigation into Kristina's attack. Warren bluntly states that he thinks Kiefer never should have gotten involved with Kristina and encourages his son to talk to her. Lucky and Dante, having already deduced that Kiefer was the one who attacked Kristina, later question Warren and his wife, Melinda, over the attack, but they are not much help.
On April 6, Warren meets with Jax on business, and discovers from Olivia Falconeri
that Kiefer has been hit by a car and brought to the hospital. Upon arriving, Melinda and Warren find Lucky questioning Kiefer. Warren pulls Lucky out of the room and criticizes him for trying to question Kiefer in his condition, and Lucky informs him that Kristina has been attacked again and that she has finally named Kiefer as her assailant both times. Kiefer dies from his injuries, and Warren immediately gives a press conference, offering a reward for information on their son's killer.
Warren discovers from Mac Scorpio
that Alexis was the one who hit Kiefer and that it was an accident. Outraged, Warren convinces himself that Alexis did it on purpose and swears revenge on both Alexis and Kristina. Later, Warren harasses an already-overwrought Kristina until Alexis and Jax arrive and force him out of the room.
Subsequently, Warren posts a memorial page online, painting Kiefer as an ideal person and student and also adding a video, where he gives his own scenario; he states that Alexis deliberately ran down Kiefer, and also claims that it was Ethan Lovett
(whom Kristina had originally accused of beating her to protect Kiefer from her father
's wrath) who attacked Kristina all along, and that Alexis and Sonny had convinced Kristina to lie and tell everyone that Kiefer was the one who attacked her because of their friendship with Luke Spencer
, Ethan's father. He later confronts Kristina in her own home and, in an attempt to get her to change her statement, fuels her grief and guilt by repeatedly reminding her that Kiefer loved her. When Alexis arrives home, she criticizes Warren for his actions, and his demeanor immediately changes; Warren calls Kristina a pathological liar and Alexis a child killer, and vows that he will make Alexis pay for what she did to Kiefer.
Warren subsequently confronts Mac at the police station and demands to know why Alexis is still running around free. When Alexis arrives, Warren demands to know why she did not stop and refuses to believe her story. Alexis calmly asks Warren to stop making everyone miserable, but Warren stops her and promises to send her to prison. Alexis' oldest daughter, Sam McCall, arrives to see Alexis arguing with Warren. Warren furiously continues to deny Kiefer's abuse of Kristina, and angrily declares that he will not stop until the whole world knows that Alexis is a murderer and that Kristina is nothing but a "promiscuous little tramp" who deserved to get beat up, at which point Sam loses her temper and punches him in the face.
Lucky is roped into the confrontation as Warren and Sam exchanged heated words. Warren points out the evidence they had originally found against Ethan and accuses both Lucky and the Davis women of framing Kiefer. Dismissing any and all evidence against Kiefer, Warren leaves, but not before telling Alexis that she belongs in prison and he will see to it personally that she is sent there.
On May 13, Alexis goes to court for Kiefer's hit-and-run. Much to Warren's outrage, the jury rules in Alexis' favor, and she gets off with a suspended sentence and community service. Warren subsequently files a civil suit, vowing to take Alexis for every penny she has. On May 18, Nikolas Cassadine
confronts Warren and attempts to get him to back down. Despite Nik's best efforts, Warren refuses to drop the case.
Proceeding these events, however, Warren begins to unravel and begins to call Claire Walsh
's office twice a day for a month and using whatever tactic he can think of to try and pressure her into reopening Kristina's abuse investigation, to no avail. Warren later approaches Kristina, Alexis, Molly, and Sonny
at the country club to inform Alexis that he is going through with the civil suit and that her court date is coming up soon. Warren continues to heckle Kristina and Alexis, and just as he begins to get really aggressive, Sonny gets in his face and warns him to back off. Asserting that abusers learn their habits from others, Sonny openly accuses Warren of having abused Kiefer himself. Though Warren denies it, it is obvious from the look on his face that Sonny is correct. Nonetheless, Warren leaves without causing any more trouble, vowing that Kiefer will get justice.
Subsequently, on July 21, Warren arrives at General Hospital and demands Kristina's medical records from Epiphany Johnson, but she refuses to give them to him. Just as Warren begins to criticize Epiphany for helping to protect Sonny's "little lying slut of a daughter", Olivia enters and calls him out. After the argument, Warren threatens to sue Epiphany and the hospital for obstruction of justice unless he gets Kristina's medical records by the end of the day. After he leaves the room, Epiphany throws his court order in the trash.
Coincidentally, Kristina is in the hospital with a sprained ankle, and Warren corners her in a room shortly after the hospital is locked down due to Franco
kidnapping the newborn Aiden Cassadine. Warren demands that Kristina sign a release for her medical records, but Kristina openly refuses and berates him for abusing Kiefer. Warren snaps and attempts to slap Kristina, but just as he is about to do so, Michael, having heard Warren screaming at Kristina, rushes to Kristina's rescue.
In the ensuing skirmish, Michael quickly overpowers Warren and brutally strangles him to near-death, but is stopped from doing so by Lucky, Ethan
, Maya, Mac, and Steve
. Warren claims that the attack was unprovoked and demands that Lucky arrest Michael, but Lucky and Mac immediately deduce what really happened and cleverly make it impossible for Warren to press charges against Michael. Subsequently, Warren suffers a psychotic break and induces a shootout, critically wounding Mac and Ethan before turning his attention to Michael and Kristina. Before he can pull the trigger, however, Mac garners enough strength to shoot him in the back. Warren quickly succumbs to his wounds, but not before telling Kristina, "This is all your fault."
Theo Hoffman first appeared in Port Charles when he checked into General Hospital, complaining about a number of vague symptoms. Theo was certain that he suffered from a serious illness that would prove to be fatal if left untreated. The doctors ran a battery of tests, but determined that the old curmudgeon was fit and healthy.
Theo demanded to be seen by more competent doctors, so Dr. Robin Scorpio
quickly took the case. Theo took an instant liking to Robin when he learned that she had been educated in Paris. However, Theo continued to remain at odds with the other doctors on staff, including Robin's estranged husband, Patrick Drake. Things reached a crisis point when Steve Webber
and Patrick Drake decided that it was time to discharge Theo. Theo threatened to sue the hospital and several of the doctors, so Robin quickly stepped in to defuse the situation.
Robin gently explained that Theo suffered from a psychological condition called hypochondria and recommended that he see a therapist. Surprisingly, Theo was grateful that Robin had been the only doctor to properly diagnose him, so he agreed to leave. However, he insisted on following through with the lawsuit. Theo headed straight to Diane Miller's law firm, where he was promptly hired. Diane had been in desperate need of someone to oversee a wrongful death lawsuit that had been filed against mobster Sonny Corinthos
' fiancée, Brenda Barrett
, and his newfound son, Dante Falconeri
. Brenda had shot a man named Anton Banovic, who had been sent by an international crime lord named the Balkan to kidnap Brenda. The lawsuit claimed that Detective Dante Falconeri, Sonny's son, had given Brenda preferential treatment after the shooting.
What no one realized was that Theo Hoffman was the Balkan and he had arranged for the lawsuit to be filed. Theo had decided to infiltrate Port Charles's society to get closer to Brenda, so that he could arrange to kidnap her. Theo was after Brenda because in 2007 she had shot and killed his son, Aleksander Janacek. Brenda and Aleksander had been involved in a brief affair, but she had ended things when she had realized that Aleksander was an abusive criminal with strong ties to the mob. Aleksander stalked Brenda to New York City in an attempt to reconcile, but Brenda had refused to consider it. Brenda lived in fear of Aleksander, so she reached out to the New York City police for protection. Young rookie Dante Falconeri had been one of the police officers assigned to guard the world famous supermodel.
During that time, Brenda had learned that she was pregnant with Aleksander's child. Dante quickly fell in love with Brenda, who only viewed Dante as a friend. One night, during a walk, Aleksander approached the couple. Aleksander grabbed Brenda as he demanded that she talk to him. Dante stepped in, and a brief struggle ensued. Brenda was horrified as it became clear that Aleksander intended to kill Dante, so when Aleksander's gun fell to the ground, Brenda picked it up and shot Aleksander. Aleksander collapsed to the ground and died. Dante decided to cover up the death to spare Brenda further trauma, so he arranged to dispose of the body in a swamp. Brenda left New York City and Dante Falconeri soon afterwards, but not before Dante signed some custody papers claiming to be the father of her child and relinquishing all rights to the baby.
Theo was determined to make Brenda pay for Aleksander's death. Brenda's wedding day presented the perfect opportunity for Theo to snatch Brenda. Brenda's close friend and the director of Brenda's pet charity, the Alliance to Save Exploited Children, Suzanne Stanwyck, had been secretly revealed to be Theo Hoffman's wife. Suzanne was just as eager as her husband was to hold Brenda accountable for their son's death.
After Theo kidnapped Brenda, he learned that Brenda had been pregnant and that his wife had known. Suzanne explained that she had not told him about the baby because she had not wanted to add to his sorrow so soon after the loss of their son, Aleksander. Theo seemed satisfied with the answer until Brenda revealed that she had fallen ill during the seventh month of her pregnancy while on a trip to Africa. Theo was stunned to learn that Suzanne had been at Brenda's side the entire time and that Suzanne had claimed that Brenda's son had been stillborn during Brenda's illness. Theo was certain that Suzanne had spirited the baby away, so that Theo would not know his grandson.
Theo confronted his wife with his suspicions, but Suzanne steadfastly insisted that the baby had died. Theo did not believe his wife because he knew that she had always resented how he had raised Aleksander. Suzanne conceded that she hated that Theo had groomed their son to follow in his footsteps, but she was adamant that their grandson had been stillborn. Suzanne also insisted that she wanted Brenda to answer for killing Aleksander.
On March 31, 2011, Theo is tricked into believing that he is going to meet his grandson but is killed by Suzanne.

soap opera
, General Hospital
. He was portrayed by Josh Duhon
from March 7, 2007 to September 2, 2008.
Logan Hayes was an ex-army buddy of Coop Barrett from Hollingsbeck, Texas
. Soon after Logan's arrival in Port Charles
, he and Coop became involved in a plan hatched by Maxie Jones
to blackmail Scott Baldwin
. The three had information that showed that Scott is the one who really killed Rick Webber
almost five years ago and let ex-wife and Rick's daughter Laura Spencer
take the fall for it. The three of them made it seem to Scott as though Laura's daughter, Lulu Spencer
, was behind the scheme, although Logan's developing feelings for Lulu had him second-guessing the plan. Lulu discovered their racket when Scott confronted her.
Lulu saved Logan from harm in a shootout with Alcazar's men. In turn, he has tried to protect her on multiple occasions, defending her against threatening characters like Scott Baldwin
.In early June 2007, Logan forcefully kissed Lulu in Sonny's coffee shop; she did not reciprocate, and he was forced to apologize profusely for his actions. Since the kiss, the two of them have grown closer. Lulu took care of Logan in July 2007 after he was shot, and during that time, she admitted that she cared about him. The two of them shared a mutual kiss. Lulu and Logan have began a forbidden relationship. Logan surprised her with balloons and a cake, the two made love together for the first time. Lulu moved in with Logan in early September 2007. Soon after, Maxie revealed the bet to Lulu, shattering her trust in Logan. After storming out of Logan's apartment, Lulu hitched a ride with Johnny Zacchara. When Lulu returned, she decided to forgive Logan, but it has not been a blissful reunion. Lulu and Logan struggled to learn to trust each other and appeared to slowly be drifting apart.
Logan's paternity has become a central part of his storyline; Lulu suspected that his father was Scott Baldwin
, who was revealed to have fathered a son in Texas around the time that Logan was born. Baldwin and Logan had a contentious relationship even before they were revealed to be father and son; Logan hates Baldwin not only because he needles Lulu but also because Baldwin ruined Logan's family with a bad business deal years before. On June 29, 2007, Logan confirmed that Baldwin is indeed his biological father, and on July 3, he admitted that he'd come to Port Charles to find him. Logan has known that Scott is his father since he was ten or twelve.
Scott continued to deny that Logan is his son but has agreed to take a DNA test to prove it. Logan had doubts about the test at first, but in early September 2007, he finally agreed to go through with it. The test came back on October 3, 2007 and proved that Scott and Logan are father and son; since then, Scott has begun to try to establish a relationship with his son. On April 24, 2007, Logan took over Coop's old job as a security guard at the Metro Court hotel, though he considers the position temporary. Sonny Corinthos secured the job for him.
Logan has been pushing Sonny Corinthos to give him a job with his mob organization since he arrived in Port Charles. Logan's even gone so far as to try to extract information from Alcazar's men to try to impress Sonny, and he has got into some violent altercations as a result. Logan's continuing efforts to be hired by Sonny's organization have got him on the mobster's bad side. After learning that Lulu had been present for some of the violence involving Logan and Lorenzo Alcazar
's organization, Sonny threatened that if anything happened to Lulu because of Logan, Logan would be killed. He also vowed never to hire Logan. However, after Logan provided Sonny with information that prevented him from being killed, as well as information about the whereabouts of James Craig
, Sonny went back on his previous word and hired Logan to work with the organization. When Jason Morgan was arrested for Alcazar's murder, Logan was put "in charge" at the coffeehouse. Sonny has assigned him to supervise some shipments as well; on July 11, 2007, he was shot by his friend (and police cadet) Coop while watching a shipment at the pier. In early 2008, Lulu mistook Logan for the Text Message Killer and hit him in the head with a wrench, putting him in a coma. Soon after Logan woke up he took a job as a bodyguard for Sonny's rival, mobster Anthony Zacchara.
Logan's career aspirations may be more varied than just mafia work, however. During a hospital stay after the gunfight at The Cellar, Coop revealed that Logan once aspired to be a doctor. He originally joined the military to help pay for medical school. Logan has appeared interested in medicine in many of his scenes. In his first meeting with Lulu, he advised her on caring for the stitches from the injuries she sustained during the Metro Court hostage situation. While a patient at General Hospital, Logan asked Maxie, a hospital volunteer, for a medical journal to read.
Logan served in the same army platoon in Iraq with Coop Barrett. On April 30, 2007, he mentioned that he had served two tours of duty in Iraq
, meaning that he probably spent at least two years in the Middle East. He sold illegal merchandise while in the army, and in his very first episode, he was shown to carry both a gun and a propensity for doing things the easy way even if they are not right. After a gunfight in The Cellar, Coop told Mac Scorpio
that he and Logan were both MPs
and that Logan is licensed to carry a gun. Logan's military service record has prompted Damian Spinelli
to dub him, among other things, "the Crabby Commando."
Due to Logan's association with the Zacchara family, he'd seen Lulu and Johnny together a few times, growing jealous. Although Logan had not been featured prominently since his breakup with Lulu, he still had strong feelings for her and longed to get back together with her. Logan held a grudge against Maxie, due to the bet, and how it led to his breakup with Lulu. Logan attempted many times to get back together with Lulu and "rebuild what Maxie destroyed", only to be turned down. Lulu even said she was grateful to Logan for sleeping with Maxie, for if he had not, she would not have run away and met Johnny. Logan finally snapped and headed to Kate Howard's office to confront Maxie, who he blamed for losing Lulu. He physically assaulted her, then noticed that Lulu was watching, and made a desperate plea for her to stay so he could talk to her. Upon his arrival at Johnny Zacchara's penthouse, Lulu would not let Logan in, forcing him to chop down the door with an axe. Logan entered the penthouse, but Lulu was hiding behind the couch, holding a knife. After disarming Lulu, Logan begged for her to take him back. When she refused, Logan threw her to the ground. As he ran after her, Lulu picked up the knife in which Logan accidentally shoved himself into the knife. He haunts Lulu in her mind for months until Laura finally gives her the strength to move on. He permanently departed on September 2, 2008.

When Sam grew up and was a teen, Cody told her all about Evelyn and Danny. Wanting to confront her mother for abandoning her, Sam set out to find her and ended up in Bailey’s Beach. When Sam went into her mother’s house and began to look around, she was horrified to find her brother Danny chained up in the basement. She quickly unchained him and helped him escape, promising him that she would care for him and give him a better life. As they were sneaking out of the house Danny accidentally knocked over a candle that set the house ablaze with fire. Sam and Danny had no idea that their mother was inside the house when it burnt down and she was killed.
After leaving Bailey’s Beach, Danny and Sam went on with their lives and Sam did the best that she could to care for herself and Danny and give her brother a good life. Years later, the night of the fire came back to haunt them, when Sam was charged with setting the fire that killed their mother, when in actuality it was Danny who had knocked over the candle and started the fire. Wanting to protect her brother, Sam confessed and took the blame for starting the fire that killed their mother. After a few months of being on the run and hiding, Sam's close friend and future lover, mobster Jason Morgan was able to get the charges against Sam dropped, by paying an inmate on death row to confess to starting the fire. Both Sam and Danny were now in the clear and able to move on with their lives. Jason also graciously arranged for Danny to attend a specialized school in Hawaii. However, Danny misunderstood his sister’s intentions and believing that she was trying to send him away he harbored resentment towards her and refused contact with Sam.

In February 2006, Danny returned to Port Charles just in time for an encephalitis epidemic. Sam quickly fell ill, and after caring for her in the hospital, so did Danny. An antidote was found, but there was only enough to be given to one person and the two candidates were Alexis Davis and Danny. Alexis was given the dose and Sam grieved for the loss of her brother. The dying Danny told Sam how glad he was that their parents "chose her," to be his little sister, leading Sam to the discovery that she and Danny were not biological siblings and she was adopted into the McCall family. Sam and Danny shared a sad and tearful goodbye, and as Danny was dying he told Sam that he could hear the angels and could see his niece, Sam’s late daughter Lila McCall coming to greet him. After Danny died, Sam held his favorite red baseball cap near and dear to her heart.
Danny made one last appearance in the form of a vision in May 2006 after Sam was shot and almost died. In the vision Sam had to choose between dying and going with Danny or fighting to live and embracing her new family, which included her two new little sisters Kristina Corinthos-Davis and Molly Lansing and a woman she hated, Alexis Davis, who was revealed to be Sam’s biological mother. Ultimately Sam chose to fight to live, and recovered from her comatose state.

soap opera
General Hospital
.
Stefan is the second son of villain Mikkos Cassadine — who once attempted to freeze the world with a weather machine in the an infamous 1980s Luke and Laura storyline — and his equally evil wife Helena
. The complex and often dark character alternated between playing protective uncle to nephew Nikolas Cassadine
and tender would-be lover of Laura Spencer
, and his obsessive vendetta against Luke Spencer
, whom he blamed for the death of his brother Stavros Cassadine and for his own loss of Laura.
Stefan first came to Port Charles
in 1996 with his teenage nephew Nikolas Cassadine, the secret son of Laura Spencer and Stefan's older brother Stavros. The Cassadines are descended from a titled, aristocratic Russian family who fled to Greece following the 1917 Russian Revolution. Stefan had raised Nikolas since infancy after Laura had escaped the captivity of Stavros and been forced to leave Nikolas behind, after Helena murdered Laura's mother when she tried to contact him.
Stefan battled his mother Helena Cassadine for control of Nikolas and control of the family company and was official head of the family by the time Nikolas was seven. His mother, emotionally abusive to him during his childhood, viewed him as weak and soft, which he was only in comparison to the more homicidal members of the Cassadine family. Helena strongly favored his older brother Stavros and alternately ignored and belittled the more sensitive Stefan. Stefan loved and protected Alexis Davis
, who was raised as his first cousin but later turned out to be his half-sister, both children of Mikkos. He paid for her to attend boarding school in the United States as a teenager and encouraged her to go into the legal profession. However, he also dominated her and expected complete loyalty and obedience from her. Alexis was charged with doing much of the legwork for "Timoria", Stefan's planned vendetta against the Spencer family and General Hospital, both of which Stefan blamed for the presumed death of his brother Stavros. In their first years on the show, fans detected romantic chemistry in Stefan's scenes with Alexis. Stefan expressed disapproval of Alexis's relationship with Ned Ashton and she later went to great lengths to break up his engagement to Katherine Bell, whom she disapproved of. Fans of the romantic pairing called themselves the "Gutter Rats", though no actual romantic relationship was ever alluded to in their scenes together.
Laura Spencer contacted Stefan after her baby daughter Lulu Spencer
was diagnosed with aplastic anemia
and was in need of a bone marrow transplant from a matched donor. Nikolas turned out to be a match. True to the love-hate relationship Stefan always had with Laura, Stefan forced Laura to beg for her daughter's life. He then allowed Nikolas to donate the life-saving bone marrow to his sister. At the same time, Stefan launched his Timoria plot, to exact revenge on Luke and Laura for (presumably) killing his brother, Stavros, while he was attempted to rape Laura Spencer fifteen years prior. Stefan later married Luke's sister Bobbie Spencer
as part of his revenge plot against the Spencers. The marriage ended in divorce after Stefan caught Bobbie investigating his actions against the Spencers.
In the intervening years, Stefan had an affair with and later became engaged to Katherine Bell. This relationship was derailed for a time after his "cousin" Alexis produced proof that Katherine was Stefan's half-sister Natasha. This was eventually exposed as a falsehood, when it turned out that Alexis was the real Natasha. This revelation rocked Stefan and he reacted as a true Cassadine. Stefan banished Alexis, but eventually forgave her. Katherine fell off a parapet during her engagement party to Stefan, the victim of a failed attempt to murder Helena by Luke and Alexis. Katherine was rescued by Helena Cassadine and restored to health, but died in a second fall from the parapet (this time assisted by Helena) soon after her return.
Meanwhile, Laura was harboring a secret about Nikolas, which strained her relationship with her husband and family. Eventually, Luke discovered that she had slept with Stefan and believed that Stefan, not Stavros, was Nikolas' father, and had lied to him about it. Meanwhile, Stefan had to face Nikolas about the secret that Stefan, too, had kept. Nikolas lashed out at Stefan, moving out and depending heavily on his brother, Lucky Spencer, and his friend, Emily Quartermaine, for support. Stefan did not approve of Nikolas's choices for companions, feeling that they were below his stature as a Cassadine. In particular, Stefan felt that Nikolas should always be wary of Spencers, and not trust them as he had come to trust Lucky. Eventually the two reconciled. Nikolas had always loved Stefan like a father, after all.
DNA testing later proved that Stavros was actually Nikolas's father, much to Stefan's bitter disappointment. The damage was already done to Luke and Laura, however, and they divorced. Shortly before Luke and Laura divorced, Stefan and Laura began a relationship, and Stefan felt hopeful that he could regain his relationship with Laura, the woman he had so loved and hated over the years. Unfortunately, their relationship ended bitterly, after Stefan learned that Laura's presumed dead son, Lucky, was alive, and temporarily withheld the information from her. Laura eventually learned about this from Luke, and violently confronted Stefan. Laura could not forgive him for the lie, and Stefan finally accepted that he and Laura had no future.
Stefan later fell in love with Quartermaine cousin Chloe Morgan and was framed for her murder when his back-from-the-dead brother, Stavros, killed her. The plot was eventually revealed and Stefan was cleared.
He appeared more aggressive and continually more deranged and desperate in his final year on the show. Stefan returned to the show after an absence. He had plotted an arranged marriage for Nikolas with Lydia Karenin, a wealthy Russian heiress, to restore the Cassadine family's wealth. He ordered Nikolas to marry Lydia, but Nikolas was reluctant to follow through. Stefan attempted to kill Nikolas's real love, Emily Bowen-Quartermaine
, but pushed Lucky's girlfriend Summer (a Laura look-alike), off the cliff by mistake. His secret was well hidden, though, he thought. Stefan's loan from Lorenzo Alcazar was due (this loan transpired as Stefan re-entered the show); Stefan and Lorenzo's henchmen fought quite a bit with him in his final weeks. At this time as well, Luke Spencer kidnapped and put Stefan on "trial" in front of the entire Port Charles television audience, taped by Dillon Quartermaine
. Luke intended for Stefan to admit to the attempted murder of Emily Bowen-Quartermaine and actual murder of Summer Holloway. Stefan apparently died after he was burned (and disfigured) and later stabbed in a knife fight with Luke Spencer.
Luke was arrested for Stefan's murder but was released when Stefan's suicide note was found, where Stefan admitted that he had set Luke up for his staged "murder."

Lois first appeared on General Hospital in 1993 when she saw Eddie Mane perform at a New York concert, Lois was a band manager and quickly hired "Eddie". Unbeknownst to her, Eddie Maine's real name was Ned Ashton. She believed that he was a singer by night and a traveling pharmaceutical salesman by day, and Ned let her. They soon fell in love and got married. After their wedding, Ned moved them to his hometown, Port Charles
. There she was re-introduced to her old friend, Sonny Corinthos
, whom she had known since their childhood in Bensonhurst. She also quickly became friends with Sonny's girlfriend, Brenda Barrett
, and the two opened their own recording company, L&B Records.
Lois was still in the dark about Ned's true identity. Meanwhile, Ned was being forced to marry Katherine Bell, who was blackmailing his family, the Quartermaines. Ned refused to tell Lois the truth because he did not want to hurt her. She found out anyway, while watching TV, and saw that Eddie Maine was actually Ned Ashton, and that he was married to Katherine. During Katherine's birthday party, she popped out of cake, saying "Happy Birthday to Mrs. Ned Ashton, from the other Mrs. Ned Ashton!" Soon after, Lois left Ned.
Ned was not ready to give up on Lois, and persistently pursued her. Eventually, Lois accepted his marriage proposal - under one condition - no more lies. He agreed and they married again. Their marriage went through tough times, starting with Ned telling Mac Scorpio
that Sonny was a mobster, after Lois confided this to him. It was Ned's family, however that put strain on their union. Lois wanted Ned to distance himself from the dysfunctional Quartermaines. His mother, Tracy Quartermaine
, hated Lois from the first moment they met.

and its spin-off Port Charles
. He was portrayed by Jon Lindstrom
on General Hospital from 1993 to May 1997. On June 1, 1997, Lindstrom brought the character to spin-off, Port Charles, where he remained until the final episode on October 3, 2003. Lindstrom made a special appearance on General Hospital on July 16, 2004, when Kevin and Lucy returned to attend the funeral of Lila Quartermaine.
Dr. Kevin Collins arrived in Port Charles in the early part of 1994, in an attempt to rehabilitate his twin brother, serial killer Ryan Chamberlain. Kevin believed his brother was as much a victim as the women he had murdered. Hethought his own therapeutic methods could help him. Kevin had a difficult time gaining acceptance by the people of Port Charles, due largely to the fact he was the spitting image of a man everyone hated and feared. Though it took a while, they came to accept Kevin's presence in their lives, including Felicia Jones, who was Ryan's primary victim for nearly two years. The same could not be said for Felicia's fiancee, Mac Scorpio
, who was instantly suspicious and hostile towards Kevin. Though he thought he was making progress with Ryan, Kevin failed to realize his brother was simply using him to escape from the mental hospital.
One night, Kevin visited Ryan in his room alone. Ryan found out enough about Kevin to knock him out and impersonated him back in Port Charles. Kevin eventually managed to prove to authorities and hospital personnel he was indeed Kevin and not Ryan. He raced to the church to stop Ryan from ruining Felicia's wedding to Mac. After that ordeal was over, Ryan was apprehended. Kevin saw him at the prison and confronted him. Kevin wiped his hands of Ryan again. However, Ryan was not through with Kevin. He managed to escape the prison and impersonate Kevin briefly in order to kidnap Felicia's baby at General Hospital. Kevin helped Mac and Felicia find Ryan and the baby in 1995. Ryan killed himself instead of being apprehended. Kevin still felt some guilt about Ryan's fate.
Starting in 1994, on a more romantic note, Kevin found himself befriending and counseling Lucy Coe. Lucy came to Kevin with a moral dilemma. He helped her as best as he could, but found himself attracted to her at the same time as he was exasperated with her. They started dating soon after. They got closer when Kevin found himself haunted by the death of his former lover, Grace. Kevin confided in Lucy that Grace had drowned in a car he was in. He was to blame for her death. Lucy helped him work through the past and got him to see a psychiatrist. Kevin went under hypnosis and came to the conclusion Grace was driving when the car went into the lake. He was unconscious in the car and could not save her in time, only himself.
Lucy moved in with Kevin and they started a strong, loving relationship. However, Kevin could not continue moving forward until he dealt with his whole history. In 1995, he helped a young man named Stone Cates with dyslexia, and then helped him out emotionally when Stone was diagnosed with AIDS. Kevin was profoundly affected by Stone's eventual death. He also found himself becoming very close friends with a former foe, Mac Scorpio. The two men buried the hatchet. They even dressed in drag to help expose a fraud, named Madame Mia.
However, by 1996, things began to unravel for him. Kevin found himself having blackouts, where he could not account for certain times of the day. He also started acting erratically while teaching a psychology class at PCU. Mac's niece, Robin, who was taking his class, noticed and called him on it when he mistreated a student. Kevin started to lose more time he could not account for. He started stalking Felicia Jones like his brother Ryan had. He tricked her and kidnapped her. He held her captive at knifepoint at the summer home of his childhood, called Jasmine Island. Lucy found him and talked him into letting Felicia go.
Lucy talked to him and got him to tell her what happened to him and Ryan as children. It turned out Kevin and Ryan's mother had been molesting Ryan. Kevin found out when he was 4 years old by pretending to be his twin to find out what his mother did with Ryan in the bathtub. Lucy stood by him after he was charged with kidnapping and stalking Felicia. Felicia was angry and pressed charges against him. She eventually dropped them when she realized he did not intentionally try to hurt her. Kevin began treatment with Dr. Gail Baldwin and had his medical license suspended.
He decided to write a fictional murder mystery novel called General Homicide. The novel was a bestseller. The characters were based on people who worked at General Hospital he knew. However, the book caught the attention of a real psychotic killer. The killer started copying the style of the murders and killed several doctors and nurses at GH. Kevin enlisted the help of his friend Mac, the Police Commissioner, to help solve the murders. Kevin ended up stabbed when he got close to solving the crimes. The killer turned out to be Greg Cooper, a doctor who was kicked out of his internship because the Quartermaines gave the position to Karen Wexler after Greg was found to be unstable, according to his files.
When things got back to normal, Kevin proposed to Lucy. She accepted. Lucy was also thrilled to learn she was pregnant. However, tragedy struck when, several months in her pregnancy, she miscarried. Their double wedding with Felicia and Mac also took a different turn when Kevin learned Lucy had lied to him about her indirect involvement in the car accident which left Lucy's surrogate daughter, Serena, blind. Kevin called off the wedding to Lucy. He was in for a shock, however, when he went to tell Lucy he wanted her back and found her in Florida with Scott in a hotel room. He was devastated and turned to his friend, Dr. Eve Lambert for comfort.
Kevin found himself falling for Eve. They started dating. They eventually fell in love, and got married. They were happy for a while, until a new doctor named Ian Thornhart came to town and got Eve's attention. Kevin did not realize Eve was falling for Ian, because an explosion outside of a club was presumed to have "killed" Eve and Ian in a car. Kevin was devastated and leaned on his friend, Lucy, for support. Shortly before the explosion, Kevin had to deal with his past again, when his ex-lover Grace's sister, Rachel Locke, got a job at GH as a psychiatrist, and tried to get revenge on him by trying to ruin him. Kevin also was treating a young girl, named Livvie who Lucy met and tried to help. Kevin helped her through hypnosis to find out about recurring nightmares where she was drowning. Kevin started to see parallels between Livvie's dreams and his past history with Grace.
With Lucy's interference, Kevin learned Livvie's biological mother was not Rachel, but Grace. Lucy used Kevin's hair as a sample for a DNA test to match with Livvie's hair sample. The DNA test proved Kevin was Livvie's father. Kevin was happy with the news, since he was growing quite fond of Livvie as her therapist but found they had a deep connection from the get-go. Livvie's adjustment was rough, with Rachel losing her mind and ending up in a mental hospital, but Livvie eventually accepted Kevin as her father.
Kevin started leaning on Lucy more and more. They eventually became lovers again. Eve and Ian returned alive and well. Eve lost her memory for a time but eventually told Kevin she was in love with Ian. Kevin realized he still loved Lucy. He and Lucy got engaged again but dark forces, specifically vampire Caleb Morley, caused them to drift apart.
He was last seen when he and Lucy returned to town to attend Lila Quartermaine's funeral. It's later mentioned he and Lucy had reconciled and moved to Paris with Serena and Christina.

In 1998, Taggert began dating Assistant District Attorney Dara Jensen after pursing her for quite some time. Taggert could not shake the feeling something more was going on between Dara and Justus Ward
than Dara let on.
Taggert and Justus had previously butted heads. Taggert had a prime opportunity to get Justus Ward out of his life for good when a tape came into his possession. On the tape was a confession from Justus, to the murder of Damian Smith, a crime he had committed in 1996, when he caught Damian trying to burn down Ward House, an orphanage founded by Justus' grandmother, Mary Mae Ward
.
Taggert brought the tape to Dara's attention. Out of concern for Justus, she asked Taggert to compromise his principles and burn the tape. Because Taggert truly cared about Dara, he complied.
Within a year, Taggert and Dara's relationship came to an end—not because of Justus Ward, but because of Dara's devotion to her job. Taggert felt there was not enough room in Dara's life for both him and her job. When Taggert asked if Dara could devote any more time to making their relationship work, Dara made her choice. She had put as much as she could into their relationship. They parted ways.
Taggert soon took on a new role when he volunteered to look after Juan Santiago
after his father, Armando agreed to allow Juan to remain in Port Charles.
In 2000, Taggert was surprised when his maternal half-sister, Gia Campbell, arrived in Port Charles, with Taggert furious to learn she had taken time off from school.

Shortly thereafter, Taggert's mother, Florence Campbell, also came to Port Charles to be near her children.
Taggert and FBI agent Hannah Scott continued to grow closer and became lovers, despite Dara's warning the trouble she brought the FBI was trouble that followed Hannah everywhere. Taggert, however, continued to enjoy his newfound relationship, and continued to be annoyed by Hannah's friendship with AJ Quartermaine. Hannah had made it clear to AJ she was involved with Taggert. They would never share more than just friendship. AJ clearly wanted more with Hannah.

, Courtney Matthews
and his sister Gia. Liz's life was threatened by the crash, and Gia was at fault, but Liz had no memory of it.

was the true guilty party. Gia was an unwitting accomplice. Taggert placed an undercover officer, Sharifa, in Wyndemere to uncover proof of Nikolas's dealings.
At this time, Nikolas' grandmother, Helena Cassadine
managed to escape from police custody. Helena took refuge in the tunnels of Wyndemere, where she overheard Nikolas and Gia discussing their cover-up of the automobile accident. Helena blackmailed Gia into helping her escape.

was abusing his power as District Attorney
to push his own agenda against Sonny. Taggert wanted to take Sonny down as much as Scott did, but could not agree with Scott's illegal methods. Scott, not wanting Taggert to get in his way, set Taggert up as a scapegoat in Scott's sudden campaign to do away with "dirty cops". Offering Taggert no other choice, Scott forced Taggert to take a job on the police force in Portland, Oregon
.
Sarah came to town to take care of Audrey Hardy after she had had major brain surgery. When she arrived in Port Charles she instantly won the heart of Lucky Spencer, and they became close friends.

Shortly after Sarah's arrival, resentful younger sister Elizabeth "Lizzie" arrived. Lizzie plotted against Sarah for months, even planting test answers in her backpack, but she eventually stopped.
After getting to know Nikolas better, Sarah began developing feelings for him, and they were seriously dating. Then Nikolas was shot in the throat at Luke Spencer's club and consequently suffered a stroke, which caused him to lose the ability to speak properly. He was quite angry and depressed, this crisis put great stress on his relationship with Sarah. He refused to see her or speak to her for months.
Sarah became quite manipulative, asking Emily to deliver notes for her, then telling the Q's of Emily's secret journeys to Wyndemere once she began to fear Emily and Nikolas were growing too close. This move backfired, as he grew closer to Robin Scorpio, and lost any interest he ever had in Sarah. The two then broke up.
Sarah informed Lucky he could date her if he wanted to, but he was more interested in her sister Liz. Liz had changed after her rape, causing her and Sarah to become much closer. When Audrey arranged for Sarah and Liz to visit their parents in Europe, Sarah left Port Charles. She returned in early 2002, getting a job interning at the hospital. The old tensions with Liz that were mended before she left town started beginning to flare up.

Sarah was deeply drawn to him and although neither she nor Lucky wanted to hurt Elizabeth, they began seeing each other behind her back. She found out and cut them both out of her life. Sarah now had the chance to openly date Lucky, but the magic was apparently gone. Sarah vanished from town and when last mentioned by Audrey, had returned to Europe to spend time with her parents.

from the ABC
daytime drama General Hospital
and its now-defunct spinoff Port Charles
. Originating on General Hospital
. Herring si set to return to the soap as Lucy Coe as a series regular in the Summer of 2011. Lucy came to Port Charles
in 1986, and she was a mousy librarian. She was involved with Kevin O'Connor, and she was an alibi in his murder case. After she was duped by him, she wrote a tell all book to make some money. The mousy Lucy was now gone forever. She had an affair with Bobbie Spencer's then-husband Jake Meyer
and then miscarried his child. After that, her Aunt Charlene managed to set her up with Tony Jones, whom she eventually married. After Tony, she married Alan Quartermaine wearing a red dress, thus angering the Quartermaines. While married to Alan, she had an affair with Scotty Baldwin and became pregnant. She also miscarried that child. After her marriage to Alan, she ended up with Scotty, but she ended up leaving for New York
with Greg Bennett.
When she returned to Port Charles, Scotty had fallen in love with Dominique Taub. Dom was diagnosed with a fatal brain cancer, and she saw a kinder, gentler Lucy and convinced Scotty to let Lucy be the surrogate mother for their child. Lucy gave birth to the child, Serena, in a cabin during a blizzard. Soon after, Scott was forced to flee town after being pressured by the mob. Lucy took this very hard. She ended up meeting Damian Smith, and she reverted to her scheming ways temporarily. She made a bet with Damian that he could not bed Bobbie, which eventually led to the beginning of the breakup of Tony and Bobbie's marriage. She met Kevin during this time, and he helped her return to the considerate Lucy she had become because of Dominique's influence.
They faced a very rocky road to get where they are today, though. Despite her fledgling psychic powers that helped in the capture of Damian Smith, Lucy's brief marriage to evil Rex Stanton to keep an eye on Serena, and Kevin's mental breakdown, they managed to stay together. However, when she tampered with Eve's car during their engagement, it caused Eve's car to have an accident while Serena was in it. Serena lost her eyesight but regained it afterwards. Kevin called off the wedding when they were about to say their vows.
Around this time Lucy was trapped in a cabin with brisk Dr. Ellen Burgess, and a strong friendship began, lasting with ups and downs until Ellen vanished in 1999. After their plane crashed, Lucy and Scott found love again and eventually married. A baby girl, Christina, came into their lives after Lucy found her at the Nurses' Ball. Unbeknownst to them, Julie Devlin was Christina's mother, and a bitter custody fight ensued. Lucy reacted angrily to Julie's visitation rights, Frank's visitation rights, and the news that Scott had adopted Christina under his name, and could not under hers. When Julie kidnapped Christina and fled town, Lucy irrationally blamed Scott, and ended their relationship. They eventually divorced amicably, and she sees Serena regularly.
After working together to sort out the machinations of Dr. Rachel Locke, and uncovering the identity of Kevin's daughter Livvie, Lucy and Kevin realized their love for each other had never died. They reunited, with Lucy moving back into the Lighthouse she loved. The duo depended on each other more than ever at this time, with Livvie constantly in danger and enthralled by unknown forces, and the town under a dark cloud. As the few months went by, Lucy pieced together the clues and discovered Port Charles had a vampire. In spite of his rationally-trained mind, Kevin put aside his doubts and believed her. Not only was she right, a trip to Transylvania brought news that she was one of the last in a line of vampire slayers dating back centuries (not related to Buffy). She also gained a cousin, Rafe.
Lucy, Kevin, and several others managed to vanquish Caleb, but only temporarily. He returned weak, slowly gaining power by tapping into their fears and weaknesses. He planted seeds in Lucy's head to make her think Kevin wanted to resume his relationship with Eve. With help from Rafe, Lucy and most of the other victims escaped his duping, but he is now using their children as weapons, making Lucy think Christina has contacted her. In the midst of the constant chaos, Lucy has been the major force behind the Nurses Ball since 1994, and takes great pride in its success. Through a series of misunderstandings and Caleb and Livvie's manipulations, a needy Lucy had a one-night stand with Eve's estranged husband Ian. Caleb was destroyed for good, and with the help of Lucy's cousin Rafe, Kevin/Lucy and Eve/Ian were able to patch up their differences.
Lucy then became suspicious of Kevin's meetings with a mysterious veiled woman, but that was resolved when Kevin threw a surprise wedding for Lucy, with Christina as a surprise guest! Finally, after nearly a decade, Lucy was Mrs. Kevin Collins. After the wedding, Lucy learned Julie (Kevin's mystery friend) had returned to town to give Christina to her other mother, because Julie had a terminal illness. Lucy tearfully agreed and promised that Christina would learn how much Julie loved her.
With her new family together in the lighthouse, Lucy had to contend with an old friend of Kevin's, Paige, showing up on his doorstep and moving in. Considering that she was supposed to be Kevin's age, Lucy was amazed by the quality of her skin. As Paige grew closer to Kevin, asking him to paint her portrait, she claimed her husband had been killed in a car accident. What they did not realize was that Paige was also killed in that accident, and back on Earth only to resolve her relationship with Kevin. Paige got other ideas, and began plotting to take him and Christina from Lucy, seeing them as her family. When Kevin was electrocuted, Paige appeared in her angelic form and nearly pulled him into death.
Lucy, already suspicious of Paige, left Christina with her and went upstairs to find Paige gone and Christina alone (Paige had been beamed up to Heaven for a reprimand). Lucy was outraged and threw Paige out of the house as soon as she returned. Soon, Kevin was similarly disenchanted, and cut her out of his life. He did agree to paint her portrait. At this time he finally managed to piece together her identity as an angel. Lucy walked in on him and Paige in a private moment, and he told Lucy about Paige's real persona. Since Paige had said her few months on Earth were supposed to be spent exploring why she was brought, Lucy bought 3 plane tickets to London, making Kevin and Paige go along. They visited Paige's family's mansion, to put her portrait on the wall. Only a portrait of ancestor Rebecca Barrington was missing. Paige realized she must be related to the Barringtons, and after sharing a tearful goodbye with Kevin, saved Alison's life, then vanished.
Lucy's peace of mind was shattered within a day. Kevin's former wife and Lucy's former rival, Eve Lambert, was killed in a car accident. Lucy had grown to become friendly with her, and was devastated by the loss. She then managed to help Kevin come to terms with his grief, as well as Ian.
Victor and Mary were turned on by a scented candle, which Lucy realized. She soon discovered Alison was responsible for the candles being passed around, and funded a candle business for Alison. Her good idea hit a rough patch when her stepdaughter, Livvie, vehemently opposed this "witchcraft". Kevin took her side, opposing Lucy. Within a few weeks, he had vanished after making contact with the spirit of Rebecca in the candle shop. Lucy lashed out when many assumed Kevin was dead, and tried to help Alison after she was arrested for Kevin's murder. With the support of Ian, Victor, and others, she kept a rein on her emotions and began trying to bring Kevin back. She got clues from the other side which she could tell were from Kevin. They led her to Rebecca's portrait, which had been slashed by Livvie. Lucy and Ian began repairing the portrait, hoping to bring her beloved "Doc" back to her. Kevin shows up in the "nowhere world" of Barnadoon with Rebecca. He tries to call out to Lucy, who vaguely hears him, and she and Ian channel Kevin several times over the next few weeks. It works, but leaves Ian more and more debilitated each time afterwards. Lucy refuses to continue to put Ian at risk, as she cares for him too much to lose him, too.
Lucy eventually realizes that if she and Alison can clear Rebecca's name, maybe it will let her rest in peace and return Lucy's husband. Lucy, Alison, Ian, Kate, Jack and Jamal all work on it, and a judge overturns Rebecca's conviction. In Barnadoon, Rebecca fades away to heaven right in front of Kevin. Before vanishing completely and leaving Kevin alone, she tells him that someone on Earth has to light the special candle for him to return.
Back in PC, Victor informs Lucy that "Kevin's" remains (really ashes from the urn of Kevin's twin brother Ryan) are found, and Lucy loses all hope of finding her husband. Just then, a sketchpad appears in front of Kevin and he draws a sketch of Lucy (adding the date), which floats its way down to her, restoring her faith. Days later, at the hospital chapel, Rafe pulls the magic candle out of his backpack and lights it. Kevin appears in front of Lucy and the two share a wonderful reunion.
With Kevin back, and Rafe revealed to be back as well, Lucy turns her energy to helping Rafe realize that (despite his amnesia) Alison, not Livvie, is his true love. This drives a little wedge between Lucy and Kevin, since Kevin naturally takes his daughter's side. Lucy does not back off though, and (with some help from above) realizes that Rafe sold his soul and that if he does not fall back in love with Alison, he will lose it forever. Eventually, even Kevin admits that Livvie is acting very odd, and when he checks her medical records, he notices some records are missing. He gets the young assistant that Livvie blackmailed to admit that she changed the paternity results. Kevin tells this to Lucy, then prepares to go talk to Livvie. When he enters her apartment however, she takes him for Frank and injects him with a psychotropic drug....making him crazy.
Kevin assumes the personality of his dead twin Ryan, and seduces Lucy then tries to kill her. It is also revealed that a young prostitute on Jasmine Island (where Kevin retreated to after being injected) was murdered. After he tries to hurt Alison, Lucy has Kevin committed to a psychiatric center. In pain, Lucy grows closer to Ian who is still suffering from the pain of losing Eve. Kevin does not seem to be getting any better, in fact he is getting more angry by the day, and is particularly agitated by the connection between his wife and Ian. That connection grows stronger and stronger, and as it becomes increasingly clear that Kevin will not be returning to his normal self, Lucy and Ian begin to admit that they are falling in love.
About this time, the band The Stephen Clay Experience comes to town. They release a song that everybody seems mesmerized by... everybody but slayers Lucy and Rafe. When eventually Stephen Clay is revealed, he looks exactly like Caleb, and Rafe and Lucy go into Slayer mode to protect the town from the vampire. Alas, Elizabeth Barrington is turned into a vampire, and she turns Ian. Lucy comforts him, and the two realize that her slayer powers lessen his need to feed when they make love.
Lucy, Rafe, Alison and Ian devise a plan to rid the town of vampires: there is a healing spring that runs below Port Charles. When submerged in the water, any vampire who has fed will be "healed" and returned to their human selves. The group plans to toss all the vampires in. Unfortunately, the plan does not go off as well as hoped (Joshua tries to blow the spring up): people are hurt, and Lucy also falls in the water. Also, since Ian has not fed, he cannot be healed. After the explosion, Lucy begins not feeling well. She is anemic, tired and her hair has been falling out. Ian soon discovers that she has a disorder in which her own blood is poisoning her. Lucy also realizes that she has lost her slayer powers. But this does not deter Lucy, as she is still determined to save Port Charles from Joshua and his vampire clan.
She was last seen in July 2004 when she and Kevin came back to town to attend Lila's funeral. It's later mentioned that her and Kevin had reconciled and moved to Paris with Serena and Christina. Lucy Coe is set to return to Port Charles in the summer of 2011, but without Kevin.

were a major storyline. Alan attempted to kill Monica and one of her lovers, Dr. Rick Webber
, more than once after he learned there was a chance Rick might have fathered Alan "AJ" Quartermaine Jr.
However, the plot was foiled and AJ turned out to be Alan's son. Alan later fathered a son, Jason, with his mistress Susan Moore. Alan eventually reunited with Monica, who legally adopted Jason when Susan died.
Years later, Alan and Monica adopted Emily
, the 11-year-old daughter of Monica's friend Paige Bowen, who lost her battle against breast cancer. Over the past three decades, Alan has also battled drug addiction. Stories in recent years have centered over AJ's alcoholism and later his death; the Quartermaine family's battle for custody or contact with AJ's son Michael
; and their loss of Jason, who lost the memory of his life as a Quartermaine after he was injured in a drunk driving accident when half-brother A.J. was at the wheel and turned to a life of crime as a mafia hitman. Alan was largely a back burner character through 2006, though has had a larger part during the Sweeps period of February 2007, where his character was forced to suffer through the effects of a major heart attack while being held hostage. On February 26, Alan died of heart failure at General Hospital. His memorial service was held on March 5 with nephew Ned Ashton delivering a touching eulogy.

However Damon was kept on the show in a recurring role. Despite his death, Alan remained on General Hospital for the next year and half, as Alan's ghost, who haunted his sister Tracy after she tampered with his last will and testament. Alan's ghost acted as a conscience for Tracy when she engaged in questionably moral activities.
On November 26, 2008, Robin Scorpio and Patrick Drake visualize an alternate universe of their relationship. As part of this alternate reality, Alan is still alive, and was responsible for hiring Patrick's brother Matt Hunter.
Alan's last will and testament stated he wished to leave a quarter of his fortune to the first child of his son, Jason. That child was Jacob Martin Spencer, a.k.a. Jake Spencer, who was legally Lucky Spencer's son, but Jason's biological son, and thus, should have inherited a quarter of Alan's estate, but the child was killed in a hit and run accident in 2011. Tracy and her husband, Luke, stole his will and made many changes far from Alan's wishes. Since then, Alan has haunted his sister as a more mellow, humorous spirit wearing a black jogging suit. His haunting has caused the Quartermaines to think Tracy has gone insane. No one other than Tracy can see him, although Luke will often acknowledge Alan's presence. Alan has cast lightning bolts and refuses to leave unless Tracy admits she forged his will. It has been recently revealed Alan is not actually a ghost but a manifestation of Tracy's conscience. Alan's ghost continues to frequently appear, and last appears on Christmas Eve 2008 in an emotional reunion with Monica to tell her he loves her.

By now social climbing Williams, (who remained in the mob's pocket) was running for the State Senate. Tracy gleefully financed his campaign. With Tracy controlling the purse strings, Mitch had no choice but to give in to her demands to crack down on organized crime—starting with the mob's rumored control of the Campus Disco ran by head mobster Frank Smith. Smith who was not happy with Mitch's harassment arranged for his manager of the disco, Luke Spencer
to carry out a hit on Mitch. In order to save his good friend, Roy DiLucca attempted to carry out the hit himself. The attempt failed and Roy was shot by Mitch's security detail. He was presumed dead but Roy really was sent to Pentonville federal prison. Mitch was now running for governor of New York. Later, Edward Quartermaine
agreed to give Tracy two million dollars, which could only be spent on Mitch's race for the governorship. Tracy tired of competing with Susan for Mitch's affections, used the money to lure the greedy Mitch away from her. Mitch chose money over love and he left Port Charles for Albany. Tracy knew she could not compete with Susan so, she left with her tail between her legs and joined Mitch in Albany. Their marriage did not last long. Mitch and Tracy quietly divorced and she returned to Port Charles searching for love yet again.

Warren subsequently confronts Mac at the police station and demands to know why Alexis is still running around free.

Alexis calmly asks Warren to stop making everyone miserable, but Warren stops her and promises to send her to prison. Alexis' oldest daughter, Sam McCall, arrives to see Alexis arguing with Warren.

Though Warren denies it, it is obvious from the look on his face that Sonny is correct. Nonetheless, Warren leaves without causing any more trouble, vowing that Kiefer will get justice.

. Brenda had shot a man named Anton Banovic, who had been sent by an international crime lord named the Balkan to kidnap Brenda. The lawsuit claimed that Detective Dante Falconeri, Sonny's son, had given Brenda preferential treatment after the shooting.
What no one realized was that Theo Hoffman was the Balkan and he had arranged for the lawsuit to be filed. Theo had decided to infiltrate Port Charles's society to get closer to Brenda, so that he could arrange to kidnap her. Theo was after Brenda because in 2007 she had shot and killed his son, Aleksander Janacek. Brenda and Aleksander had been involved in a brief affair, but she had ended things when she had realized that Aleksander was an abusive criminal with strong ties to the mob. Aleksander stalked Brenda to New York City in an attempt to reconcile, but Brenda had refused to consider it. Brenda lived in fear of Aleksander, so she reached out to the New York City police for protection. Young rookie Dante Falconeri had been one of the police officers assigned to guard the world famous supermodel.
During that time, Brenda had learned that she was pregnant with Aleksander's child. Dante quickly fell in love with Brenda, who only viewed Dante as a friend. One night, during a walk, Aleksander approached the couple. Aleksander grabbed Brenda as he demanded that she talk to him. Dante stepped in, and a brief struggle ensued. Brenda was horrified as it became clear that Aleksander intended to kill Dante, so when Aleksander's gun fell to the ground, Brenda picked it up and shot Aleksander. Aleksander collapsed to the ground and died. Dante decided to cover up the death to spare Brenda further trauma, so he arranged to dispose of the body in a swamp. Brenda left New York City and Dante Falconeri soon afterwards, but not before Dante signed some custody papers claiming to be the father of her child and relinquishing all rights to the baby.
Theo was determined to make Brenda pay for Aleksander's death. Brenda's wedding day presented the perfect opportunity for Theo to snatch Brenda. Brenda's close friend and the director of Brenda's pet charity, the Alliance to Save Exploited Children, Suzanne Stanwyck, had been secretly revealed to be Theo Hoffman's wife. Suzanne was just as eager as her husband was to hold Brenda accountable for their son's death.
After Theo kidnapped Brenda, he learned that Brenda had been pregnant and that his wife had known. Suzanne explained that she had not told him about the baby because she had not wanted to add to his sorrow so soon after the loss of their son, Aleksander. Theo seemed satisfied with the answer until Brenda revealed that she had fallen ill during the seventh month of her pregnancy while on a trip to Africa. Theo was stunned to learn that Suzanne had been at Brenda's side the entire time and that Suzanne had claimed that Brenda's son had been stillborn during Brenda's illness. Theo was certain that Suzanne had spirited the baby away, so that Theo would not know his grandson.
Theo confronted his wife with his suspicions, but Suzanne steadfastly insisted that the baby had died. Theo did not believe his wife because he knew that she had always resented how he had raised Aleksander. Suzanne conceded that she hated that Theo had groomed their son to follow in his footsteps, but she was adamant that their grandson had been stillborn. Suzanne also insisted that she wanted Brenda to answer for killing Aleksander.
On March 31, 2011, Theo is tricked into believing that he is going to meet his grandson but is killed by Suzanne.

, Sonny went back on his previous word and hired Logan to work with the organization. When Jason Morgan was arrested for Alcazar's murder, Logan was put "in charge" at the coffeehouse. Sonny has assigned him to supervise some shipments as well; on July 11, 2007, he was shot by his friend (and police cadet) Coop while watching a shipment at the pier. In early 2008, Lulu mistook Logan for the Text Message Killer and hit him in the head with a wrench, putting him in a coma. Soon after Logan woke up he took a job as a bodyguard for Sonny's rival, mobster Anthony Zacchara.
Logan's career aspirations may be more varied than just mafia work, however. During a hospital stay after the gunfight at The Cellar, Coop revealed that Logan once aspired to be a doctor. He originally joined the military to help pay for medical school. Logan has appeared interested in medicine in many of his scenes. In his first meeting with Lulu, he advised her on caring for the stitches from the injuries she sustained during the Metro Court hostage situation. While a patient at General Hospital, Logan asked Maxie, a hospital volunteer, for a medical journal to read.

Due to Logan's association with the Zacchara family, he'd seen Lulu and Johnny together a few times, growing jealous. Although Logan had not been featured prominently since his breakup with Lulu, he still had strong feelings for her and longed to get back together with her. Logan held a grudge against Maxie, due to the bet, and how it led to his breakup with Lulu. Logan attempted many times to get back together with Lulu and "rebuild what Maxie destroyed", only to be turned down. Lulu even said she was grateful to Logan for sleeping with Maxie, for if he had not, she would not have run away and met Johnny. Logan finally snapped and headed to Kate Howard's office to confront Maxie, who he blamed for losing Lulu. He physically assaulted her, then noticed that Lulu was watching, and made a desperate plea for her to stay so he could talk to her. Upon his arrival at Johnny Zacchara's penthouse, Lulu would not let Logan in, forcing him to chop down the door with an axe. Logan entered the penthouse, but Lulu was hiding behind the couch, holding a knife. After disarming Lulu, Logan begged for her to take him back. When she refused, Logan threw her to the ground. As he ran after her, Lulu picked up the knife in which Logan accidentally shoved himself into the knife. He haunts Lulu in her mind for months until Laura finally gives her the strength to move on. He permanently departed on September 2, 2008.

Danny McCall
When Danny was born, it was discovered that he carried the Fragile X gene, which caused him to be born with a mental handicap. A few years after his birth, his parents Cody McCall and Evelyn Bass decided that they wanted another child, but they did not want to risk having another child naturally. They feared that if they had another child naturally, that child could also inherit the gene and develop a mental handicap. Cody and Evelyn could not afford to provide for two children, with a mental handicap, so they decided to adopt instead of having another child naturally. After making the decision to adopt, they soon brought home a newborn baby girl that they named Samantha McCall.When Sam was only three years old, Evelyn decided that she did not want Sam anymore and she no longer wanted to deal with Cody’s drifter ways. So Evelyn left Sam with Cody and took Danny with her when she moved to Bailey’s Beach, Rhode Island. Evelyn was very distant and emotionally abusive towards Danny because of his mental handicap. No longer wanting to deal with him, she kept Danny locked up in the basement, while she went on with her daily life.When Sam grew up and was a teen, Cody told her all about Evelyn and Danny. Wanting to confront her mother for abandoning her, Sam set out to find her and ended up in Bailey’s Beach. When Sam went into her mother’s house and began to look around, she was horrified to find her brother Danny chained up in the basement. She quickly unchained him and helped him escape, promising him that she would care for him and give him a better life. As they were sneaking out of the house Danny accidentally knocked over a candle that set the house ablaze with fire. Sam and Danny had no idea that their mother was inside the house when it burnt down and she was killed.
After leaving Bailey’s Beach, Danny and Sam went on with their lives and Sam did the best that she could to care for herself and Danny and give her brother a good life. Years later, the night of the fire came back to haunt them, when Sam was charged with setting the fire that killed their mother, when in actuality it was Danny who had knocked over the candle and started the fire. Wanting to protect her brother, Sam confessed and took the blame for starting the fire that killed their mother. After a few months of being on the run and hiding, Sam's close friend and future lover, mobster Jason Morgan was able to get the charges against Sam dropped, by paying an inmate on death row to confess to starting the fire. Both Sam and Danny were now in the clear and able to move on with their lives. Jason also graciously arranged for Danny to attend a specialized school in Hawaii. However, Danny misunderstood his sister’s intentions and believing that she was trying to send him away he harbored resentment towards her and refused contact with Sam.
In October 2005, Jason and Sam moved to Hawaii to start their new life together. While there Sam and Danny reconciled and Sam was able to explain to Danny that she was not trying to send him away, but only wanted to provide a better life for him. Danny understood and forgave his little sister. Sam and Danny enjoyed their time together in Hawaii until Jason and Sam had to move back to Port Charles, because of a mob threat in the form of the sinister Ruiz family.
In February 2006, Danny returned to Port Charles just in time for an encephalitis epidemic. Sam quickly fell ill, and after caring for her in the hospital, so did Danny. An antidote was found, but there was only enough to be given to one person and the two candidates were Alexis Davis and Danny. Alexis was given the dose and Sam grieved for the loss of her brother. The dying Danny told Sam how glad he was that their parents "chose her," to be his little sister, leading Sam to the discovery that she and Danny were not biological siblings and she was adopted into the McCall family. Sam and Danny shared a sad and tearful goodbye, and as Danny was dying he told Sam that he could hear the angels and could see his niece, Sam’s late daughter Lila McCall coming to greet him. After Danny died, Sam held his favorite red baseball cap near and dear to her heart.
Danny made one last appearance in the form of a vision in May 2006 after Sam was shot and almost died. In the vision Sam had to choose between dying and going with Danny or fighting to live and embracing her new family, which included her two new little sisters Kristina Corinthos-Davis and Molly Lansing and a woman she hated, Alexis Davis, who was revealed to be Sam’s biological mother. Ultimately Sam chose to fight to live, and recovered from her comatose state.

in 1996 with his teenage nephew Nikolas Cassadine, the secret son of Laura Spencer and Stefan's older brother Stavros. The Cassadines are descended from a titled, aristocratic Russian family who fled to Greece following the 1917 Russian Revolution. Stefan had raised Nikolas since infancy after Laura had escaped the captivity of Stavros and been forced to leave Nikolas behind, after Helena murdered Laura's mother when she tried to contact him.
Stefan battled his mother Helena Cassadine for control of Nikolas and control of the family company and was official head of the family by the time Nikolas was seven. His mother, emotionally abusive to him during his childhood, viewed him as weak and soft, which he was only in comparison to the more homicidal members of the Cassadine family. Helena strongly favored his older brother Stavros and alternately ignored and belittled the more sensitive Stefan. Stefan loved and protected Alexis Davis

He paid for her to attend boarding school in the United States as a teenager and encouraged her to go into the legal profession. However, he also dominated her and expected complete loyalty and obedience from her. Alexis was charged with doing much of the legwork for "Timoria", Stefan's planned vendetta against the Spencer family and General Hospital, both of which Stefan blamed for the presumed death of his brother Stavros. In their first years on the show, fans detected romantic chemistry in Stefan's scenes with Alexis. Stefan expressed disapproval of Alexis's relationship with Ned Ashton and she later went to great lengths to break up his engagement to Katherine Bell, whom she disapproved of. Fans of the romantic pairing called themselves the "Gutter Rats", though no actual romantic relationship was ever alluded to in their scenes together.

and was in need of a bone marrow transplant from a matched donor. Nikolas turned out to be a match. True to the love-hate relationship Stefan always had with Laura, Stefan forced Laura to beg for her daughter's life. He then allowed Nikolas to donate the life-saving bone marrow to his sister. At the same time, Stefan launched his Timoria plot, to exact revenge on Luke and Laura for (presumably) killing his brother, Stavros, while he was attempted to rape Laura Spencer fifteen years prior. Stefan later married Luke's sister Bobbie Spencer
Bobbie Spencer

as part of his revenge plot against the Spencers. The marriage ended in divorce after Stefan caught Bobbie investigating his actions against the Spencers.
In the intervening years, Stefan had an affair with and later became engaged to Katherine Bell. This relationship was derailed for a time after his "cousin" Alexis produced proof that Katherine was Stefan's half-sister Natasha. This was eventually exposed as a falsehood, when it turned out that Alexis was the real Natasha. This revelation rocked Stefan and he reacted as a true Cassadine. Stefan banished Alexis, but eventually forgave her. Katherine fell off a parapet during her engagement party to Stefan, the victim of a failed attempt to murder Helena by Luke and Alexis. Katherine was rescued by Helena Cassadine and restored to health, but died in a second fall from the parapet (this time assisted by Helena) soon after her return.
Meanwhile, Laura was harboring a secret about Nikolas, which strained her relationship with her husband and family. Eventually, Luke discovered that she had slept with Stefan and believed that Stefan, not Stavros, was Nikolas' father, and had lied to him about it. Meanwhile, Stefan had to face Nikolas about the secret that Stefan, too, had kept. Nikolas lashed out at Stefan, moving out and depending heavily on his brother, Lucky Spencer, and his friend, Emily Quartermaine, for support. Stefan did not approve of Nikolas's choices for companions, feeling that they were below his stature as a Cassadine. In particular, Stefan felt that Nikolas should always be wary of Spencers, and not trust them as he had come to trust Lucky. Eventually the two reconciled. Nikolas had always loved Stefan like a father, after all.
DNA testing later proved that Stavros was actually Nikolas's father, much to Stefan's bitter disappointment. The damage was already done to Luke and Laura, however, and they divorced. Shortly before Luke and Laura divorced, Stefan and Laura began a relationship, and Stefan felt hopeful that he could regain his relationship with Laura, the woman he had so loved and hated over the years. Unfortunately, their relationship ended bitterly, after Stefan learned that Laura's presumed dead son, Lucky, was alive, and temporarily withheld the information from her. Laura eventually learned about this from Luke, and violently confronted Stefan. Laura could not forgive him for the lie, and Stefan finally accepted that he and Laura had no future.
Stefan later fell in love with Quartermaine cousin Chloe Morgan and was framed for her murder when his back-from-the-dead brother, Stavros, killed her. The plot was eventually revealed and Stefan was cleared.
He appeared more aggressive and continually more deranged and desperate in his final year on the show. Stefan returned to the show after an absence. He had plotted an arranged marriage for Nikolas with Lydia Karenin, a wealthy Russian heiress, to restore the Cassadine family's wealth. He ordered Nikolas to marry Lydia, but Nikolas was reluctant to follow through. Stefan attempted to kill Nikolas's real love, Emily Bowen-Quartermaine

. Stone lived in Sonny's apartment above the club. Soon, Karen was addicted to stripping, Sonny, and pills! Karen kept her new life a secret while she worked at Kelly's and the hospital and went to class at Port Charles University. Jagger and "Stone" were reunited.
After Jagger and Stone argued over Stone's going back to school, Jagger followed Stone to the Paradise Lounge. He saw Karen stripping! Later, a stunned Jagger found Karen in bed with Sonny and beat Sonny up. Sonny put a hit out on Jagger. Marco promised Sonny a piece of Jagger's boxing action in exchange for Jagger's life. Sonny liked the idea of "owning" Jagger and agreed.
Slipping into the strip joint, Brenda's eyes popped when she saw a drugged-out Karen taking her clothes off. Brenda saw it all, and told everyone.

Before Jagger and Karen's wedding day, a suicidal patient at the hospital almost plunged out a window with Karen! A new orderly, Miguel Morez, saved them both. Miguel saw how Jagger felt about Karen and had a pang. He had once been in love like that with a girl named Lily.
Jagger stopped his brother Stone from driving the getaway van that would carry Frank Smith out of jail. Tragedy struck when the bike Jagger was riding crashed and he was knocked out! Jagger recuperated from his motorcycle spill in time to marry Karen in a touching wedding ceremony. It was a day filled with love—and surprises. Karen's mother revealed to Karen that Scott Baldwin was her father.

Karen and Joe had been childhood friends in Port Charles. Although Karen was now married to Jagger Cates, a police officer stationed in San Francisco, she was still attracted to Joe. And Joe was attracted to Karen!
Karen's marriage to Jagger was on shaky ground but she wanted to make it work. Although they constantly found themselves in close situations, Karen and Joe resisted their impulses as Karen tried to stay faithful to her husband. Afraid of her feelings for Joe and needing to see Jagger, Karen went to San Francisco. While there, Karen learned that Jagger had been having an affair and that their marriage was truly over. Karen returned to Port Charles and her friendship with Joe grew deeper and the two began dating.
In 2008 Jagger returned to Port Charles with his son Stone, named after his deceased brother. It is revealed that Stone's mother is suing for custody of their son and probably would get him.

, who was instantly suspicious and hostile towards Kevin. Though he thought he was making progress with Ryan, Kevin failed to realize his brother was simply using him to escape from the mental hospital.
One night, Kevin visited Ryan in his room alone. Ryan found out enough about Kevin to knock him out and impersonated him back in Port Charles. Kevin eventually managed to prove to authorities and hospital personnel he was indeed Kevin and not Ryan. He raced to the church to stop Ryan from ruining Felicia's wedding to Mac. After that ordeal was over, Ryan was apprehended. Kevin saw him at the prison and confronted him. Kevin wiped his hands of Ryan again. However, Ryan was not through with Kevin. He managed to escape the prison and impersonate Kevin briefly in order to kidnap Felicia's baby at General Hospital. Kevin helped Mac and Felicia find Ryan and the baby in 1995. Ryan killed himself instead of being apprehended. Kevin still felt some guilt about Ryan's fate.
Starting in 1994, on a more romantic note, Kevin found himself befriending and counseling Lucy Coe. Lucy came to Kevin with a moral dilemma. He helped her as best as he could, but found himself attracted to her at the same time as he was exasperated with her. They started dating soon after. They got closer when Kevin found himself haunted by the death of his former lover, Grace. Kevin confided in Lucy that Grace had drowned in a car he was in. He was to blame for her death. Lucy helped him work through the past and got him to see a psychiatrist. Kevin went under hypnosis and came to the conclusion Grace was driving when the car went into the lake. He was unconscious in the car and could not save her in time, only himself.
Lucy moved in with Kevin and they started a strong, loving relationship. However, Kevin could not continue moving forward until he dealt with his whole history. In 1995, he helped a young man named Stone Cates with dyslexia, and then helped him out emotionally when Stone was diagnosed with AIDS. Kevin was profoundly affected by Stone's eventual death. He also found himself becoming very close friends with a former foe, Mac Scorpio. The two men buried the hatchet. They even dressed in drag to help expose a fraud, named Madame Mia.
However, by 1996, things began to unravel for him. Kevin found himself having blackouts, where he could not account for certain times of the day. He also started acting erratically while teaching a psychology class at PCU. Mac's niece, Robin, who was taking his class, noticed and called him on it when he mistreated a student. Kevin started to lose more time he could not account for. He started stalking Felicia Jones like his brother Ryan had. He tricked her and kidnapped her. He held her captive at knifepoint at the summer home of his childhood, called Jasmine Island. Lucy found him and talked him into letting Felicia go.
Lucy talked to him and got him to tell her what happened to him and Ryan as children. It turned out Kevin and Ryan's mother had been molesting Ryan. Kevin found out when he was 4 years old by pretending to be his twin to find out what his mother did with Ryan in the bathtub. Lucy stood by him after he was charged with kidnapping and stalking Felicia. Felicia was angry and pressed charges against him. She eventually dropped them when she realized he did not intentionally try to hurt her. Kevin began treatment with Dr. Gail Baldwin and had his medical license suspended.
He decided to write a fictional murder mystery novel called General Homicide. The novel was a bestseller. The characters were based on people who worked at General Hospital he knew. However, the book caught the attention of a real psychotic killer. The killer started copying the style of the murders and killed several doctors and nurses at GH. Kevin enlisted the help of his friend Mac, the Police Commissioner, to help solve the murders. Kevin ended up stabbed when he got close to solving the crimes. The killer turned out to be Greg Cooper, a doctor who was kicked out of his internship because the Quartermaines gave the position to Karen Wexler after Greg was found to be unstable, according to his files.
When things got back to normal, Kevin proposed to Lucy. She accepted. Lucy was also thrilled to learn she was pregnant. However, tragedy struck when, several months in her pregnancy, she miscarried. Their double wedding with Felicia and Mac also took a different turn when Kevin learned Lucy had lied to him about her indirect involvement in the car accident which left Lucy's surrogate daughter, Serena, blind. Kevin called off the wedding to Lucy. He was in for a shock, however, when he went to tell Lucy he wanted her back and found her in Florida with Scott in a hotel room. He was devastated and turned to his friend, Dr. Eve Lambert for comfort.
Kevin found himself falling for Eve. They started dating. They eventually fell in love, and got married. They were happy for a while, until a new doctor named Ian Thornhart came to town and got Eve's attention. Kevin did not realize Eve was falling for Ian, because an explosion outside of a club was presumed to have "killed" Eve and Ian in a car. Kevin was devastated and leaned on his friend, Lucy, for support. Shortly before the explosion, Kevin had to deal with his past again, when his ex-lover Grace's sister, Rachel Locke, got a job at GH as a psychiatrist, and tried to get revenge on him by trying to ruin him. Kevin also was treating a young girl, named Livvie who Lucy met and tried to help. Kevin helped her through hypnosis to find out about recurring nightmares where she was drowning. Kevin started to see parallels between Livvie's dreams and his past history with Grace.
With Lucy's interference, Kevin learned Livvie's biological mother was not Rachel, but Grace. Lucy used Kevin's hair as a sample for a DNA test to match with Livvie's hair sample. The DNA test proved Kevin was Livvie's father. Kevin was happy with the news, since he was growing quite fond of Livvie as her therapist but found they had a deep connection from the get-go. Livvie's adjustment was rough, with Rachel losing her mind and ending up in a mental hospital, but Livvie eventually accepted Kevin as her father.
Kevin started leaning on Lucy more and more. They eventually became lovers again. Eve and Ian returned alive and well. Eve lost her memory for a time but eventually told Kevin she was in love with Ian. Kevin realized he still loved Lucy. He and Lucy got engaged again but dark forces, specifically vampire Caleb Morley, caused them to drift apart.
He was last seen when he and Lucy returned to town to attend Lila Quartermaine's funeral. It's later mentioned he and Lucy had reconciled and moved to Paris with Serena and Christina.

Sarah Webber
Sarah Webber was a fictional character on General Hospital.Sarah came to town to take care of Audrey Hardy after she had had major brain surgery. When she arrived in Port Charles she instantly won the heart of Lucky Spencer, and they became close friends. Soon after she met Nikolas Cassadine and their initial encounters left a lot to be desired (Sarah thought he was arrogant). Shortly after Sarah's arrival, resentful younger sister Elizabeth "Lizzie" arrived. Lizzie plotted against Sarah for months, even planting test answers in her backpack, but she eventually stopped.
After getting to know Nikolas better, Sarah began developing feelings for him, and they were seriously dating. Then Nikolas was shot in the throat at Luke Spencer's club and consequently suffered a stroke, which caused him to lose the ability to speak properly. He was quite angry and depressed, this crisis put great stress on his relationship with Sarah. He refused to see her or speak to her for months.
Sarah became quite manipulative, asking Emily to deliver notes for her, then telling the Q's of Emily's secret journeys to Wyndemere once she began to fear Emily and Nikolas were growing too close. This move backfired, as he grew closer to Robin Scorpio, and lost any interest he ever had in Sarah. The two then broke up.
Sarah informed Lucky he could date her if he wanted to, but he was more interested in her sister Liz. Liz had changed after her rape, causing her and Sarah to become much closer. When Audrey arranged for Sarah and Liz to visit their parents in Europe, Sarah left Port Charles. She returned in early 2002, getting a job interning at the hospital. The old tensions with Liz that were mended before she left town started beginning to flare up.
Sarah had ignored Lucky during her last stint in PC, but in her time away he had grown into a hunky young man. Sarah was deeply drawn to him and although neither she nor Lucky wanted to hurt Elizabeth, they began seeing each other behind her back. She found out and cut them both out of her life. Sarah now had the chance to openly date Lucky, but the magic was apparently gone. Sarah vanished from town and when last mentioned by Audrey, had returned to Europe to spend time with her parents.
In August 2010, Elizabeth and the boys went to visit her for a bit in northern California.

She also miscarried that child. After her marriage to Alan, she ended up with Scotty, but she ended up leaving for New York

with Greg Bennett.
When she returned to Port Charles, Scotty had fallen in love with Dominique Taub. Dom was diagnosed with a fatal brain cancer, and she saw a kinder, gentler Lucy and convinced Scotty to let Lucy be the surrogate mother for their child. Lucy gave birth to the child, Serena, in a cabin during a blizzard. Soon after, Scott was forced to flee town after being pressured by the mob. Lucy took this very hard. She ended up meeting Damian Smith, and she reverted to her scheming ways temporarily. She made a bet with Damian that he could not bed Bobbie, which eventually led to the beginning of the breakup of Tony and Bobbie's marriage. She met Kevin during this time, and he helped her return to the considerate Lucy she had become because of Dominique's influence.
They faced a very rocky road to get where they are today, though. Despite her fledgling psychic powers that helped in the capture of Damian Smith, Lucy's brief marriage to evil Rex Stanton to keep an eye on Serena, and Kevin's mental breakdown, they managed to stay together. However, when she tampered with Eve's car during their engagement, it caused Eve's car to have an accident while Serena was in it. Serena lost her eyesight but regained it afterwards. Kevin called off the wedding when they were about to say their vows.
Around this time Lucy was trapped in a cabin with brisk Dr. Ellen Burgess, and a strong friendship began, lasting with ups and downs until Ellen vanished in 1999. After their plane crashed, Lucy and Scott found love again and eventually married. A baby girl, Christina, came into their lives after Lucy found her at the Nurses' Ball. Unbeknownst to them, Julie Devlin was Christina's mother, and a bitter custody fight ensued. Lucy reacted angrily to Julie's visitation rights, Frank's visitation rights, and the news that Scott had adopted Christina under his name, and could not under hers. When Julie kidnapped Christina and fled town, Lucy irrationally blamed Scott, and ended their relationship. They eventually divorced amicably, and she sees Serena regularly.
After working together to sort out the machinations of Dr. Rachel Locke, and uncovering the identity of Kevin's daughter Livvie, Lucy and Kevin realized their love for each other had never died. They reunited, with Lucy moving back into the Lighthouse she loved. The duo depended on each other more than ever at this time, with Livvie constantly in danger and enthralled by unknown forces, and the town under a dark cloud. As the few months went by, Lucy pieced together the clues and discovered Port Charles had a vampire. In spite of his rationally-trained mind, Kevin put aside his doubts and believed her. Not only was she right, a trip to Transylvania brought news that she was one of the last in a line of vampire slayers dating back centuries (not related to Buffy). She also gained a cousin, Rafe.
Lucy, Kevin, and several others managed to vanquish Caleb, but only temporarily. He returned weak, slowly gaining power by tapping into their fears and weaknesses. He planted seeds in Lucy's head to make her think Kevin wanted to resume his relationship with Eve. With help from Rafe, Lucy and most of the other victims escaped his duping, but he is now using their children as weapons, making Lucy think Christina has contacted her. In the midst of the constant chaos, Lucy has been the major force behind the Nurses Ball since 1994, and takes great pride in its success. Through a series of misunderstandings and Caleb and Livvie's manipulations, a needy Lucy had a one-night stand with Eve's estranged husband Ian. Caleb was destroyed for good, and with the help of Lucy's cousin Rafe, Kevin/Lucy and Eve/Ian were able to patch up their differences.
Lucy then became suspicious of Kevin's meetings with a mysterious veiled woman, but that was resolved when Kevin threw a surprise wedding for Lucy, with Christina as a surprise guest! Finally, after nearly a decade, Lucy was Mrs. Kevin Collins. After the wedding, Lucy learned Julie (Kevin's mystery friend) had returned to town to give Christina to her other mother, because Julie had a terminal illness. Lucy tearfully agreed and promised that Christina would learn how much Julie loved her.
With her new family together in the lighthouse, Lucy had to contend with an old friend of Kevin's, Paige, showing up on his doorstep and moving in. Considering that she was supposed to be Kevin's age, Lucy was amazed by the quality of her skin. As Paige grew closer to Kevin, asking him to paint her portrait, she claimed her husband had been killed in a car accident. What they did not realize was that Paige was also killed in that accident, and back on Earth only to resolve her relationship with Kevin. Paige got other ideas, and began plotting to take him and Christina from Lucy, seeing them as her family. When Kevin was electrocuted, Paige appeared in her angelic form and nearly pulled him into death.
Lucy, already suspicious of Paige, left Christina with her and went upstairs to find Paige gone and Christina alone (Paige had been beamed up to Heaven for a reprimand). Lucy was outraged and threw Paige out of the house as soon as she returned. Soon, Kevin was similarly disenchanted, and cut her out of his life. He did agree to paint her portrait. At this time he finally managed to piece together her identity as an angel. Lucy walked in on him and Paige in a private moment, and he told Lucy about Paige's real persona. Since Paige had said her few months on Earth were supposed to be spent exploring why she was brought, Lucy bought 3 plane tickets to London, making Kevin and Paige go along. They visited Paige's family's mansion, to put her portrait on the wall. Only a portrait of ancestor Rebecca Barrington was missing. Paige realized she must be related to the Barringtons, and after sharing a tearful goodbye with Kevin, saved Alison's life, then vanished.
Lucy's peace of mind was shattered within a day. Kevin's former wife and Lucy's former rival, Eve Lambert, was killed in a car accident. Lucy had grown to become friendly with her, and was devastated by the loss. She then managed to help Kevin come to terms with his grief, as well as Ian.
Victor and Mary were turned on by a scented candle, which Lucy realized. She soon discovered Alison was responsible for the candles being passed around, and funded a candle business for Alison. Her good idea hit a rough patch when her stepdaughter, Livvie, vehemently opposed this "witchcraft". Kevin took her side, opposing Lucy. Within a few weeks, he had vanished after making contact with the spirit of Rebecca in the candle shop. Lucy lashed out when many assumed Kevin was dead, and tried to help Alison after she was arrested for Kevin's murder. With the support of Ian, Victor, and others, she kept a rein on her emotions and began trying to bring Kevin back. She got clues from the other side which she could tell were from Kevin. They led her to Rebecca's portrait, which had been slashed by Livvie. Lucy and Ian began repairing the portrait, hoping to bring her beloved "Doc" back to her. Kevin shows up in the "nowhere world" of Barnadoon with Rebecca. He tries to call out to Lucy, who vaguely hears him, and she and Ian channel Kevin several times over the next few weeks. It works, but leaves Ian more and more debilitated each time afterwards. Lucy refuses to continue to put Ian at risk, as she cares for him too much to lose him, too.
Lucy eventually realizes that if she and Alison can clear Rebecca's name, maybe it will let her rest in peace and return Lucy's husband. Lucy, Alison, Ian, Kate, Jack and Jamal all work on it, and a judge overturns Rebecca's conviction. In Barnadoon, Rebecca fades away to heaven right in front of Kevin. Before vanishing completely and leaving Kevin alone, she tells him that someone on Earth has to light the special candle for him to return.
Back in PC, Victor informs Lucy that "Kevin's" remains (really ashes from the urn of Kevin's twin brother Ryan) are found, and Lucy loses all hope of finding her husband. Just then, a sketchpad appears in front of Kevin and he draws a sketch of Lucy (adding the date), which floats its way down to her, restoring her faith. Days later, at the hospital chapel, Rafe pulls the magic candle out of his backpack and lights it. Kevin appears in front of Lucy and the two share a wonderful reunion.
With Kevin back, and Rafe revealed to be back as well, Lucy turns her energy to helping Rafe realize that (despite his amnesia) Alison, not Livvie, is his true love. This drives a little wedge between Lucy and Kevin, since Kevin naturally takes his daughter's side. Lucy does not back off though, and (with some help from above) realizes that Rafe sold his soul and that if he does not fall back in love with Alison, he will lose it forever. Eventually, even Kevin admits that Livvie is acting very odd, and when he checks her medical records, he notices some records are missing. He gets the young assistant that Livvie blackmailed to admit that she changed the paternity results. Kevin tells this to Lucy, then prepares to go talk to Livvie. When he enters her apartment however, she takes him for Frank and injects him with a psychotropic drug....making him crazy.
Kevin assumes the personality of his dead twin Ryan, and seduces Lucy then tries to kill her. It is also revealed that a young prostitute on Jasmine Island (where Kevin retreated to after being injected) was murdered. After he tries to hurt Alison, Lucy has Kevin committed to a psychiatric center. In pain, Lucy grows closer to Ian who is still suffering from the pain of losing Eve. Kevin does not seem to be getting any better, in fact he is getting more angry by the day, and is particularly agitated by the connection between his wife and Ian. That connection grows stronger and stronger, and as it becomes increasingly clear that Kevin will not be returning to his normal self, Lucy and Ian begin to admit that they are falling in love.
About this time, the band The Stephen Clay Experience comes to town. They release a song that everybody seems mesmerized by... everybody but slayers Lucy and Rafe. When eventually Stephen Clay is revealed, he looks exactly like Caleb, and Rafe and Lucy go into Slayer mode to protect the town from the vampire. Alas, Elizabeth Barrington is turned into a vampire, and she turns Ian. Lucy comforts him, and the two realize that her slayer powers lessen his need to feed when they make love.
Lucy, Rafe, Alison and Ian devise a plan to rid the town of vampires: there is a healing spring that runs below Port Charles. When submerged in the water, any vampire who has fed will be "healed" and returned to their human selves. The group plans to toss all the vampires in. Unfortunately, the plan does not go off as well as hoped (Joshua tries to blow the spring up): people are hurt, and Lucy also falls in the water. Also, since Ian has not fed, he cannot be healed. After the explosion, Lucy begins not feeling well. She is anemic, tired and her hair has been falling out. Ian soon discovers that she has a disorder in which her own blood is poisoning her. Lucy also realizes that she has lost her slayer powers. But this does not deter Lucy, as she is still determined to save Port Charles from Joshua and his vampire clan.
She was last seen in July 2004 when she and Kevin came back to town to attend Lila's funeral. It's later mentioned that her and Kevin had reconciled and moved to Paris with Serena and Christina. Lucy Coe is set to return to Port Charles in the summer of 2011, but without Kevin.

Alan was largely a back burner character through 2006, though has had a larger part during the Sweeps period of February 2007, where his character was forced to suffer through the effects of a major heart attack while being held hostage.

In December 2006, it was reported Stuart Damon had been fired from his role as Dr. Alan Quartermaine on General Hospital, with his last air date initially scheduled for February 2007. However Damon was kept on the show in a recurring role. Despite his death, Alan remained on General Hospital for the next year and half, as Alan's ghost, who haunted his sister Tracy after she tampered with his last will and testament. Alan's ghost acted as a conscience for Tracy when she engaged in questionably moral activities.
On November 26, 2008, Robin Scorpio and Patrick Drake visualize an alternate universe of their relationship. As part of this alternate reality, Alan is still alive, and was responsible for hiring Patrick's brother Matt Hunter.
Alan's last will and testament stated he wished to leave a quarter of his fortune to the first child of his son, Jason. That child was Jacob Martin Spencer, a.k.a. Jake Spencer, who was legally Lucky Spencer's son, but Jason's biological son, and thus, should have inherited a quarter of Alan's estate, but the child was killed in a hit and run accident in 2011. Tracy and her husband, Luke, stole his will and made many changes far from Alan's wishes. Since then, Alan has haunted his sister as a more mellow, humorous spirit wearing a black jogging suit. His haunting has caused the Quartermaines to think Tracy has gone insane. No one other than Tracy can see him, although Luke will often acknowledge Alan's presence. Alan has cast lightning bolts and refuses to leave unless Tracy admits she forged his will. It has been recently revealed Alan is not actually a ghost but a manifestation of Tracy's conscience. Alan's ghost continues to frequently appear, and last appears on Christmas Eve 2008 in an emotional reunion with Monica to tell her he loves her.
On August 26 & 29, 2011, Alan appears alive in Monica's dream sequence as Jason is having brain surgery.
