General Hospital is doing everything in its power to make viewers think that the newly returned Ethan may be Little Orphan Phoebe’s biological father. And if that’s the case, then that puts Ethan on a collision course with Brook Lynn. Which could be a good thing. Or a bad thing. Or a life-changing thing.
Key Takeaways
- Ethan is connected to Delilah.
- Delilah is Phoebe’s biological daughter.
- Brook Lynn assumes Phoebe has no living relatives and is available for adoption.
Ethan’s Connection to Delilah Could Upend Brook Lynn’s Plans for Phoebe
Ethan (Nathan Dean) has been away from Port Charles for years. We have no idea what he’s been up to in that time. Except we know that he was planning to meet up with Delilah (Lily Cardone). And that was when he found out she’d died, he tearfully burned a Polaroid photo of her. (Does the man not own a phone?)
This being soap land, it is natural to leap to the conclusion that Ethan will turn out to be Phoebe’s biological father. (Which would also make Phoebe Luke [Anthony Geary] and Holly’s [Emma Samms] granddaughter. Counting Sasha’s [Sofia Mattsson) Daisy, Holly sure has a lot of grandchildren for a woman who never wanted kids.)
GH May Be Setting Up Ethan and Brook Lynn for a Major Collision
While Ethan was away, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) swooped in to foster Phoebe, assuming she’d be able to adopt her down the road. If Ethan turns out to be the Daddy, that will put a crimp in Brook Lynn’s plans.
We can see Brook Lynn turning to Grandma Tracy (Jane Elliot) to convince her stepson to give up his daughter to Tracy’s granddaughter. But Ethan is a con man. He knows how to play all the angles. And the best angle is for him to claim his baby.
Brook Lynn’s Future With Phoebe Could Change if Ethan Is Hiding a Bigger Secret
If Ethan takes Phoebe away from Brook Lynn, she won’t be able to give the tot up. She’ll want to hang around Ethan, teaching him how to take care of Phoebe. Brook Lynn might even get so desperate that she’ll throw herself at Ethan, as a way of staying close to “her” daughter.
And what will that mean when it comes to her marriage to Chase (Josh Swickard)? Is it triangle time?
