With Monica Quartermaine gone, Port Charles is bracing for the biggest will reading in General Hospital history. Will the Quartermaine fortune land with Michael, Jason, or Tracy? Fans are already placing bets—and taking sides.

General Hospital just pulled the rug: Monica Quartermaine is gone, and while the characters are deep in their grief, fans have already pivoted to the most Quartermaine question imaginable — who gets the house, the money, basically the whole estate? Because of course they have.

The September 17 episode set it up in classic GH fashion. Wiley and Scout were on their way to Grandma Monica for her traditional first-day-of-school blessing. Meanwhile, Michael and a very vengeful Willow were at it again, this time with accusations flying over Drew's shooting. In the background, Tracy was scrambling to protect Michael from whatever fallout was coming. Then came the gut punch: Jason had been sent to deliver bad news to his mother, but he returned with red eyes, head down, and dropped the line that ended the day.

"Monica is gone."

And with that, the fan theorizing machine kicked into high gear. On Facebook, people are literally placing bets. One person put it bluntly: "Place your bets on who will inherit everything from Monica. I say Tracy gets the house." Others are arguing the bloodline angle, pushing for Michael since he is Monica's biological grandson. Another fan — clearly anticipating the inevitable power plays — joked, "Only if everyone is forced to say, 'It's Tracy's house. Monica gave it to her.'"

There is some classic soap foreshadowing in the mix too: several viewers pointed out that Monica's sister is coming to town, which usually means a will-reading grenade is about to roll into the living room. And then there is the heart-over-blood case for Jason. He is not Monica's biological son, but she raised him and, as one fan put it, always saw the best in him. Another prediction floating around is a split scenario: the estate gets divided between Tracy and Jason now, and they eventually pass their shares to their kids — which would put Michael and Jason's son in the mix down the line. Inside baseball? Definitely. But it is the Quartermaines; the house is practically a character.

Where the fan bets are landing right now

  • Tracy: The most ruthless option. Some think Monica left her the mansion outright, setting up a "say it with me, it's Tracy's house" era.
  • Michael: The bloodline argument. As Monica's biological grandson, he could leapfrog the rest in a straightforward will.
  • Jason: The heart choice. Monica raised him, backed him, and might have prioritized their bond over DNA.
  • Monica's sister: Wild card alert. Her arrival screams "surprise clause" or some last-minute amendment.
  • Split decision: A tidy soap compromise — Tracy and Jason split it now, then their kids inherit their shares later.

So, will Tracy tighten her grip on the mansion? Does Michael's bloodline win the day? Or does Jason's history with Monica trump biology? Until the will is read, we are all just circling the foyer and waiting for the next bomb to drop.
