Tristan Roberts Debuts

The Monday episode marked the show’s 16,000th episode plus the return of Stone Cold—more on that in a minute.

Geyer’s credits include “9-1-1,” “Zoey 102,” “Zoey 101,” Brody Weston on “Glee,” Mark Reynolds on “Terra Nova” and Ty Harper on the Australian soap opera, “Neighbours.”

If the name Tristan Roberts sounds familiar, that’s because it is. The Aussie newbie was named to honor the late Tristan Rogers, the Australian actor who debuted as Robert Scorpio on the ABC soap in 1980. \Rogers passed away in 2025 after a battle with lung cancer.

Head honchos Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten said that Rogers’ passing will be addressed on-screen: “He is sorely missed, and we aim to pay tribute to Tristan and Robert the same way that we did for Leslie [Charleson] and Monica [Quartermaine].”

Tristan Roberts Makes a Splash

We met Tristan on a plane flying to PC, and it was clear he was accompanying Jason safely back home. He said as much but played it coy when Jason asked where he was headed.

It turns out the newbie headed straight to GH where he introduced himself as the new surgeon to Head Nurse Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst).

Did sparks fly between them? It’s too early to tell, but fans are speculating that he could hit it off with her or fellow GH doc Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud).

Then again, there are tons of eligible ladies in town, including Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins) and Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen).

Is Tristan WSB?

There is also speculation about Tristan’s connection to Jason—is he WSB or just a friendly doc who treated Jason at some point?

It’s a bit mind-boggling to think that a humanitarian doctor would be tangled up in the WSB, but anything is possible. For now, we have to wonder if Tristan has an agenda, and if so is he friend or foe?

What Happens Next in PC?

It will be fun to watch the upcoming chem tests with the ladies, and we have no reason to doubt that Tristan is a credible doc, probably brought in to cover for injured Isaish Gannon (Sawandi Wilson).

Beyond that anything is possible and that’s what makes this casting so exciting.Will Tristan follow in his namesake’s shoes and have a WSB connection like Robert Scorpio did?

Both men are Aussie so there could be past history between them—did Tristan pack his digeridoo?
