General Hospital Spoilers – Explosive Storylines Started One Way, Ending Another
Of course, with so many writer switcheroos some storylines started one way and seem to be ending another, leading to some minor continuity errors and unexpected conclusions.
One recent storyline that may ban e excellent example of that is what started as a custody battle storyline regarding a surrogate pregnancy.
It started with Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) carrying a baby for TJ Ashford (Tajh Bellow) and her sister, Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos).
In the meantime, Molly’s lawyer father Ric Lansing ( Rick Hearst ) was announced returning and assumed for the custody battle between the sisters.
The storyline was heading for a custody battle where Kristina would refuse to give Molly and TJ their baby, but instead, the baby died due to Kristina’s fall!
