General Hospital‘s Ric has been trying hard to change his ways. He has repaired his relationship with Sonny, and he is back with Elizabeth. Now his jealousy may be bringing out the old Ric.
Key Takeaways
- Ric has always been in love with Elizabeth.
- He is jealous of the spark between her and Dante.
- Ric wants to propose for the wrong reasons.
Ric And Elizabeth
Ric (Rick Hearst) has always thought of Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) as “the one who got away.” Unfortunately for him, she was with Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) when he returned to Port Charles. Once Lucky left town, he did everything he could to get her back. He has tried to be on his best behavior since then.
Jealousy is once again rearing its ugly head, and Ric may be returning to his old ways. In the past, he has gone to great and dangerous lengths to keep her in his life, only to drive her away. This time, he is planning to propose, hoping to lock her in. This is probably a bad idea.
Ric Is Jealous Of Dante
Elizabeth has gotten very close to Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), and there is a definite spark between them. Ric has noticed this, and he is not very happy about it. His not-so-brilliant solution is to ask her to marry him, and he discussed this with Sonny (Maurice Benard).
What Ric told his brother was very telling. He admitted to being insecure and jealous without mentioning Dante’s name. He is suddenly in a rush to propose to keep her from falling for someone else. That is never a reason to get married, and deep down Ric knows this. Fear is fueling his decision, not love.
Walking in on Elizabeth and Dante in what looked like a very compromising position will only make things worse. It may have been innocent, but Ric will not be able to contain his jealousy. Do you think they will get married, or is their relationship at the beginning of the end?
