General Hospital Fans Erupt After Marco Betrays Lucas
General Hospital fans are seething after Marco’s latest move, calling it a ruthless betrayal of Lucas — and many now fear he’s following his father Sidwell down the same path. Social media is ablaze with backlash as viewers question what Marco does next.
Well, that escalated fast. General Hospital just handed Marco a villain starter kit, and fans are not subtle about how they feel. After his latest move, the consensus online is basically: he betrayed Lucas, and he is absolutely his father Sidwell’s son.
So what set everyone off?
Marco has been cozying up to Lucas under the guise of friendship, then feeding what he learns straight to Sidwell. If that sounds familiar, it’s because it’s the exact playbook you’d expect from someone raised in Port Charles’ shadier circles. The part that stings: Lucas genuinely trusted him.
The receipts: how Marco played Lucas
- He steered conversations to get Lucas to spill sensitive info, then passed it along to Sidwell.
- He leveraged the bond to gather intel on the Corinthos family, which is not nothing in this town.
- Despite warnings from Lucas’s family — including Carly and Ava Jerome — Lucas moved in with Marco at Windermere. Yeah, that went well.
- Once Lucas was under the same roof, Marco turned the friendship into surveillance and advanced his father’s agenda behind the scenes.
- With each step, Marco’s loyalties looked less and less murky and more like a direct extension of Sidwell.
What fans are saying
The GH Facebook fandom lit up, calling Marco two-faced and saying Lucas should have listened to his sister. A lot of commenters said the episode made it obvious where Marco stands now.
'Marco is now fully involved in his father's activities. Poor Lucas will be crushed...lol.'
Others put it more bluntly: he showed his true colors, he fooled Lucas, and he’s just as bad as his dad. The tone isn’t exactly forgiving, and honestly, pretending to be someone’s safe place while reporting back to your father is a hard one to walk back from.
Where this leaves Lucas
In a brutal spot. He trusted Marco, ignored red flags from people who actually care about him, and moved into Windermere thinking he had an ally. Instead, he got a handler. If the show is aiming for a redemption arc, they’ve given Marco a pretty deep hole to climb out of.
General Hospital is streaming on ABC and Hulu if you want to catch up or rewatch the fallout in real time.
