Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) made his much-anticipated return to Port Charles. Despite being thought of as dead for two years, Jason was very much alive.  He’d been working with the FBI as an informant.

Jason’s return put a wedge between his brother Drew (Cameron Mathison) and Carly (Laura Wright.) Upon his return to Port Charles, Jason was caught up in the shooting of Dante (Dominic Zamprogna.) After the shooting, Jason made a beeline for Carly. Drew showed up, accusing her of harboring a fugitive.

  1. I would hate for them to send away the character of Drew if for some reason Mr. Mathison chooses to exit from GH. Before Steve Burton was let go the brothers were getting to know each other while chained on Cassadine Island. It would be nice to see Drew help Jason after his informant days are over. It appears that Jason is going to be suffering from PTSD and what better than his veteran brother help him get through it. If anyone remembers how angry Jason got after his head injury it would be a good storyline to see that anger come out and how it gets it back under control, it would also be nice to see Jason’s life away from Sonny. After all Jason could become a security manager or a private detective with Spinelli.
