We couldn’t have predicted that when John Cates (Adam J. Harrington) rejoined the General Hospital canvas he would have ushered in so much drama.

It turned out he was the reason Jason (Steve Burton) was away for two plus years, he almost sent Carly (Laura Wright) to prison for racketeering charges, he managed to get under Anna’s (Finola Hughes) skin, he weaponized Ava (Maura West) against Sonny (Maurice Benard) and he disgustingly arrested Kristina (Kate Mansi) for a ****** she didn’t commit, even as she was grieving the ****** of her baby. Let’s just say that in his last few weeks alive in Port Charles, he racked up a lot of enemies.

Then came the fateful night when Sonny shot John on the Quatermaine estate. Viewers saw Sonny ***** him and Michael (Chad Duell) leap into action to cover his father’s tracks. However, as in life, John is causing a number of problems in ******.

For starters, Carly now has to run around town pretending that she’s rekindling things with Sonny, and for now, that can’t be further from the truth. However, since she provided him with an alibi the night of the *******, alluding to them having a night of passion, the exes have to play up a fake romance for appearance’s sake.

Poor Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) has found herself to be the prime suspect in John’s *******. While a number of people in town believe Sonny is the guilty party, the evidence points to the lawyer, and Sonny and Michael are trying to figure out a way to free Alexis from police custody without shifting the ******* investigation in Sonny’s direction, or that of Kristina’s.

With Alexis in deep trouble, Kristina, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) and Sam (Kelly Monaco) are worried *****. The sisters are desperately trying to prove their mother is innocent. Sam even recently vowed to ***** into the choppy waters where Alexis threw Sonny’s unused ****, hoping the **** would prove Alexis didn’t ***** anyone. Now given the danger that’s been played up about Sam going into the water, we tend to believe that may bring about Sam’s ****** with Monaco’s tenure with the show coming to an end. However, this last bit is more of a theory at the moment.

Having said all of this, it just seems like the John Cates problem is spiraling out of control. Although we previously proposed that a fall guy be used to pin the ******* on to keep the main players of Port Charles out of prison, we’re beginning to believe that there’s a better solution here. John Cates needs to return.

Yes, viewers saw Sonny ***** him in cold blood. However, what if John didn’t actually ****? What if the FBI agent met with Sonny that night with the intention of provoking Sonny to ****** him so authorities would have a solid case against the kingpin that could land him in prison? In this hypothetical, John knew Sonny would ****** him, but was prepared to fake his ****** in an effort to see Sonny get charged with *******. You should remember that John was desperate to take down Sonny, so the idea isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

But with Alexis taking the fall, John could return to town and work in the shadows to get the police to redirect their attention back to Sonny. Is it possible that John could slip an audio clip to authorities of Sonny ********* him?

We rewatched the scene of the *******, and we noticed John loudly proclaiming obvious things like he’s a “federal agent” and he’s on the “Quatermaine estate.” It was as if he wanted someone or something (a phone or another recording device perhaps) to capture what was happening. We also couldn’t help but notice how John was baiting Sonny. Take a look at the clip for yourself.

Let’s say our theory proves right here. If authorities anonymously receive an audio clip of events, they could shift their attention back to Sonny. However, Sonny, Jason and his team would likely go searching for who recorded the file. That could lead to Sonny’s team tracking down a rogue John.

If Jason finds John, we could picture the two men struggling until Jason ****** John in self-defense. Jason could have his name cleared of wrongdoing in an investigation led by Anna. Additionally, the FBI, so distraught by the number of problems John caused them (including going rogue after Kristina and Sonny), the organization chooses to drop any charges against Sonny, fearful the audio won’t be admissible in court anyway.

If this were to happen, Alexis and Sonny go free, Carly and Brennan (Charles Mesure) could kick off a romance without her having to keep up appearances with Sonny and the residents of Port Charles could start to put the John Cates chaos behind them.
