We have reached the final chapter of our Cesar Faison retrospective, and this one covers 2014 and 2018.

Jason walked in on Carly and Valentin. Nathan cannot swing a bat anymore and Shannon has a theory about why. Maxie and Lulu had it out, and honestly Maxie has a point.

César Faison's 2012–2013 return to General Hospital was his most personal and elaborate scheme yet — not a diamond heist or a political conspiracy, but a sustained act of identity theft driven entirely by obsession. Wearing the face of Duke Lavery and the trust of Anna Devane, Faison came closer than ever to getting exactly what he wanted. Meanwhile, Robin Scorpio Drake wasn't dead. She was just waiting to come home.

Carly and Valentin finally gave in to the tension that’s been building between them. After an emotional confrontation with Josslyn about the dangers surrounding the WSB, Valentin stepped in to comfort Carly—and the moment quickly turned into something much more.
