Bottoms Up! Will General Hospital’s Serena Baldwin Charm Jason Morgan Out Of His Secrets, Or Pour Herself Into An All-Out War?

SERENA BALDWIN COULD POUR JASON MORGAN A VERY RISKY DRINK

TL;DR: Serena Baldwin has already tried a trade and a trick on Jason Morgan, so what happens if charm and a few drinks are next? Nothing here is confirmed, it’s all speculation, but the latest General Hospital spoilers have Jason in the middle of everyone’s plans.

A Diner Deal That Went Nowhere

Serena Baldwin has officially run out of polite options. At Bobbie’s, she offered Jason Morgan a trade: she would tell the cops she saw Carly Spencer at the Metro Court around the time Jack Brennan went missing, and in return Jason would hand Deception’s creative control back to her mother, Lucy Coe. Jason said no, because he wasn’t about to bet Carly’s future on Serena committing perjury. She kept pushing anyway, right up until Alexis called, and he left the diner with one request: stay out of it.

Stay out of it. Sure. Nobody in Lucy’s orbit has ever heard that as anything but a dare. This was already Serena’s second swing at Jason, after the Deception proxy stunt he calmly reported to Tracy Quartermaine and the ELQ vote where he sided with Tracy and Brook Lynn Quartermaine against Lucy. Serena even suggested walking away from Deception to build a mother-daughter brand of their own, but Lucy wanted a weakness in the Quartermaines to exploit instead, and Serena is the one who picked Jason as that weakness. So what does Serena Baldwin do when a trick and a trade have both crashed? Friday ended with her lingering at the PCPD doors, unable to decide whether to walk in.

Plan C Comes With A Nightcap

Here is where the speculation gets spicy. Nothing on screen has Serena seducing anybody, but she has tried every other door in the building. Charm is the one left, and a woman shut out of her own mother’s company has every reason to pour a few drinks, laugh at his jokes and ask what Jason knows about Carly, the Quartermaines and that missing-man mess at the Metro Court. A nightcap would be the least subtle move she has made all month, from a girl who once babbled about falcons so Jason couldn’t get a warning in.

And what Jason knows is the dangerous part. He knows Danny Morgan and Charlotte Cassadine found Jack’s body floating in the Metro Court pool, he knows Carly is protecting them, and he promised Tracy he would look after the whole family while she is off bailing out Dillon. If Serena Baldwin fishes in the right pond, she could land the one secret nobody in that house can afford to have floating around, and she wouldn’t even realize what she was holding.

Which storyline has you the most obsessed? Drop it in the comments below, we’re dying to talk about this!

Jason Doesn’t Bend, And The Family Doesn’t Forget

But Jason is not a man who spills on a barstool. He turned down a deal that would have handed Lucy her company, and the last time someone tried to work him, he gave the whole plan to Tracy. A man who answers a seduction with a poker face is the kind who nods, says very little, notices which questions keep coming, and then goes home to hand over the transcript.

That is where the war starts. Tracy and Brook Lynn already voted Deception into ELQ, and the minute Jason carries Serena’s fishing trip back to them, and to the people who love Carly, Lucy’s daughter stops being a nuisance and becomes the target. Tracy gleefully admitted she asked Jason about Lucy’s scheme because she knew Lucy would try something sneaky. Imagine how much she would enjoy catching the daughter, too. Would Serena see the trap before it snaps shut? Who strikes first, Tracy with a boardroom move or Carly’s corner with something nastier? And would Lucy back her girl, or finally learn what being too clever costs?

Who Blinks First At Bobbie’s?

If Serena Baldwin comes back with a bottle instead of a bargain, Jason will know exactly what he is looking at, and so will everyone he tells. Is one smile worth declaring war on the Quartermaines?
