General Hospital Spoilers – A Month Of Surprising Returns

Fans will be excited to hear that Ric Lansing is making a comeback, along with Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig) and Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson) returning to the show.

This nostalgic moment may provide answers to questions about what these characters have been up to outside of Port Charles, although Morgan’s appearance is expected to be short-lived.

Morgan will likely appear in a nightmare or as a ghost, as he is presumed to still be deceased-he’ll be on for one episode.

Ric Lansing’s return is connected to the surrogacy pregnancy drama involving Molly, TJ Ashford (Tajh Bellow), and Kristina. Hearst teased that Ric’s comeback will revolve around taking care of his daughter and everything that comes with it.

GH Spoilers – Rick Hearst Teases Family Friction

It’s definite that there’s tension brewing between Alexis, Sonny, and Ric, and it’s definitely going to create some more serious drama between Molly and Kristina.

It’s actually looking more and more certain that a custody battle is on the horizon, especially since it’s unlikely that Alexis will want to pick sides.

Ric might step in to support his daughter, and his legal expertise could come in handy if things escalate; looks like things are about to get really interesting.

Ric once held the same position of Assistant District Attorney in Port Charles that Molly does now, plus he was also District Attorney-a position now occupied by Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers).

General Hospital Spoilers – Ric Hearst’s Ripple Effect Across Port Charles

Certainly, Ric’s involvement is sure to create a ripple effect in Port Charles; take Sonny, for instance; as half-brothers, their relationship is extremely tumultuous.

The mob boss is unlikely to welcome his brother’s presence in town, especially if it means facing off against his daughter in a custody dispute.

Sonny remains oblivious to Ava Jerome’s (Maura West) tampering with his meds, and with his recent unpredictable behavior, a reunion with Ric in such a situation could lead to big trouble.

Sonny is currently embroiled in a custody dispute with Ava, so it is essential for him to maintain his composure. Sonny definitely does not want Ava to enlist his brother as a witness in her case against him.

GH Spoilers – The Rest Of Port Charles Reacts

Carly (Laura Wright) and Jason (Steve Burton) are unlikely to welcome Ric with open arms. The close friends have always harbored distrust towards Ric, making it clear that they will remain cautious around him.

Additionally, it is worth noting Elizabeth Baldwin’s (Rebecca Herbst) current single status as both Ric and Lucky return to town.

Despite her past with Ric, it seems improbable that a romantic relationship will rekindle between them, when Elizabeth was the one who saved Carly from Ric’s panic room while she was pregnant. Lucky, on the other hand, may get a little more lucky!
