General Hospital‘s Ezra has been an almost comical villain, always creeping around and starting trouble. But that may be beginning to change.
Key Takeaways
- Ezra is a constant troublemaker in Port Charles.
- He is now doing Sidwell’s dirty work.
- There may be more to Ezra than we previously thought.
- The councilman showed some empathy toward Laura.
- Ezra cares about Jacinda.
One-Dimensional Ezra
Ezra (Daniel Cosgrove) appeared in Port Charles as Drew’s (Cameron Mathison) sidekick. He was in with Sidwell (Carlo Rota), and Laura’s (Genie Francis) opponent in the never-ending mayoral race. The man was constantly popping up to cause trouble. There was nothing more to him, just a bad guy.
Up until now, Ezra hasn’t had a backstory. No family, no friends, and we don’t even know where he came from. He was originally just an annoyance, but now he is doing Sidwell’s dirty work. The councilman gets worse by the minute.
Understanding Ezra
Ezra is a bad guy, but there may be a reason behind his atrocious behavior. There was a hint of something soft in him when he was talking to Laura in her apartment. We saw a tiny bit of empathy toward the mayor. The councilman even alluded to a reason why he was working for Sidwell and tried to warn Laura not to cross the evil villain.
Not long after that conversation, he met with Jacinda (Paige Herschell). Ezra seemed to care for her and asked to begin a relationship. She left the situation, but not before we saw an almost sad side to the councilman. There may be more to him than meets the eye.
Fans are starting to see something more in Ezra and are hoping to get more from the character. One theory is that Sidwell is blackmailing him, just like Laura. The hope is that he comes clean to the mayor, and they begin to work together to take down the bad guy.
