General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) may pose as “Bailey Quartermaine” aka Louise August’s (Odell-Diaz Twins) new baby daddy. Will Chase lie for Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) and Maxie Jones (Kristen Storms) to protect Louise from Peter August (Wes Ramsey)?
Let’s consider some crucial clues since at least part of the baby secret is ready to blow. For starters, the show had Chase form a special bond with “Bailey” from the beginning.
Who can forget all the sweet moments between them – like when Chase held “Bailey” in his arms and sang her a lullaby? Chase cares about this precious little girl and wants to protect her.
Of course, Chase also has experience in telling lies for the sake of protecting a child.
GH fans will recall that Chase and Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson) were willing to fake an affair – all so Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) would be willing to marry Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) and have the best shot against Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) in the custody case.
Despite all the issues that resulted, Chase can’t regret helping to protect Wiley Quartermaine-Corinthos (Caleb and Kyler Ends). Now there’s a new child that needs Chase’s help – and her name is Louise!
That brings us to Gladys Corbin’s (Bonnie Burroughs) newfound knowledge.
The writers could’ve just as easily had Gladys find out “Bailey” actually belonged to Maxie, but that’s not what she recorded Brook Lynn saying. Gladys doesn’t know this baby is linked to Maxie and Peter at all.
All Gladys knows is that “Bailey” isn’t Valentin’s daughter, so there must be a good reason the writing team went with that distinction. They can use it to create a twist and keep the story going a bit longer.
General Hospital spoilers say Maxie and Brook Lynn will work out a new plan, but Austin Gatlin Holt (Roger Howarth) may blow it out of the water.
Austin will become curious about what Gladys is up to and will do some investigating.
Austin will also deliver some important info to Valentin during the week of November 8-12, so that could mean he’ll learn Valentin isn’t the true father and share that news with him.
That could force Brook Lynn and Maxie to come up with another solution.
Maxie will question Chase’s motives after all this goes down, so maybe he’ll volunteer to help with a new baby daddy cover story.
Chase’s reasons could be all the ones we mentioned. He loves “Bailey” no matter what her real identity is – and we’ve established that he’ll go to extremes to protect a child.
Brook Lynn could still use the excuse of lying to Valentin as part of her ELQ plan. She might also act like she didn’t want to ruin Chase’s shot at potentially reuniting with Willow.
Brook Lynn could argue that the lie got out of hand and sell all this to Valentin once Austin exposes the not-the-father shocker.
Chase could do his part by pretending to be outraged and acting like he indeed slept with Brook Lynn at the right time for conception.
That way Peter wouldn’t know to come looking for Louise. They could continue to leave Maxie and Peter out of this narrative entirely.
It sounds like things could get even more complicated once Chase gets involved, so stay tuned! GH spoilers say some exciting baby drama is set to explode.
