Sasha was shocked to learn that she was Robert Scorpio’s daughter on General Hospital. She yelled at her mother, Holly, about it. But this woman has no idea of what’s ahead for her. Luckily, we do. We remember the last time Robert ended up with a long-lost child. And how she upended the Port Charles canvas.
Robin’s Way
Robin (Kimberly McCullough) may have still been in pigtails when she learned that “Robbie” (Tristan Rogers) and “Luv” (Finola Hughes) were her biological parents. Robin instantly kept Robert from moving to Australia like he’d planned with Holly (Emma Samms) — and, presumably, kicking off her transformation from lovable, righteous heroine into… whoever it is we’ve been forced to suffer through for the past almost 20 years.
She then promptly got kidnapped. For the first time. But oh, so, so, so not the last. The child was a magnet for every psycho passing through town.

Two Sides of the Same Coin
Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) knows about suffering. She’s already suffered more than any person should have to, what with losing her newborn son and then her husband. But the good news about being Robert’s child is that, in addition to the nonstop Perils of Pauline, there is also the fact that you become a saint.
A real-life, honest-to-goodness saint. Everyone loves you. Grown men literally drop what they’re doing to rush over when a third-grader summons them. (This happened. The men in question were Frisco [Jack Wagner], Sean [John Reilley], and a guy named Buzz. Don’t worry if you don’t remember Buzz. It’s a blessing.)
Handy Man
This “Whatever Robert’s daughter is automatically right and whatever anyone else does is automatically wrong” will come in REAL handy once words spreads throughout town that you slept with Michael (Chad Duell).
If a daughter of Robert does it, then it cannot be a bad thing. So, yay, congrats! The only fly in the ointment might be if Robin’s hallowed status came not from being Robert’s daughter but Anna’s. At which point, you’re on your own!
