In an unexpected turn of events during the week of January 13, 2025,
Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) found himself aligning with Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) in a standoff against Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
This shocking alliance has left fans questioning what’s next for the Corinthos and Quartermaine families,
particularly as they continue to navigate Michael’s (Chad Duell) critical condition and the ongoing custody battle for his children,
Wiley (Viron Weaver) and Amelia (Sequoia & Serenity Mork Macko).
Michael’s Custody Battle Heats Up
As Michael fights for his life in the hospital following a harrowing incident, his family is embroiled in a fierce custody battle. Carly (Laura Wright), always fiercely protective of her son, took the matter to court. She advised Diane (Carolyn Hennesy) to ensure Michael’s wishes for full custody of his children were carried out, despite the complicated circumstances. A judge ruled that for the time being, Wiley and Amelia were to remain at the Quartermaine Estate, under the care of Michael’s loved ones.
Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), deeply upset over the situation, took drastic measures by banning Carly, Sonny, and the rest of Michael’s family from his bedside until the children were returned to her care. This decision created a massive rift, with tensions running high between the families. However, it was Sonny who tried to take matters into his own hands, attempting to get the children and bring them to Willow. But Tracy, as always, was firm in her stance, refusing to let the children leave her care.
Jason’s Unlikely Alliance with Tracy
Amidst the chaos, Jason found himself caught in the middle. Always loyal to Sonny, Jason’s involvement in this family drama has often seen him siding with his best friend. However, in this case, Jason surprised many by siding with Tracy. As the situation escalated, Tracy reminded Jason of the importance of keeping the children at the estate, not only for their well-being but also for Monica’s (Leslie Charleson) sake. With Monica’s health in decline and Michael fighting for his life, Tracy argued that having the children around would bring her mother joy and help lift her spirits.
Jason, ever the practical thinker, conceded to Tracy’s point. While his loyalty to Sonny and his desire to see Michael’s family reunited were paramount, Jason also saw the wisdom in Tracy’s argument. This moment of cooperation between Jason and Tracy marks a significant shift in their dynamic, one that may not sit well with Sonny, but could prove beneficial for the Quartermaines in the long run.
Monica’s Absence and the Future of the Quartermaine Estate
Tracy’s increasing influence at the Quartermaine Estate has led fans to question what will happen to the family’s iconic home in the wake of Monica Quartermaine’s absence. Leslie Charleson, who portrayed Monica, has been absent from the show due to health issues and, sadly, passed away on January 12, 2025. While the show has yet to make an official statement regarding how it will handle Monica’s departure, it’s likely that her character will be written off in a way that honors Charleson’s legacy.
With Monica’s passing, the future of the Quartermaine Estate is up in the air. As Tracy continues to assert her authority, one question looms large: who will inherit the estate? Given the history between Tracy and her family, many wonder if Monica may have left the estate to Tracy, despite their complicated relationship. However, there’s a strong possibility that Monica could have made a different choice, perhaps leaving the estate to her son, Jason.
Jason: The Unlikely Heir
The idea of Jason inheriting the Quartermaine Estate would be an ironic and dramatic twist. Once estranged from the family and having even changed his last name, Jason was never considered a true Quartermaine in the eyes of many. But over time, his role as a protector and father figure has solidified his place in the family. Jason’s recent return to the estate, where he’s been living with his son and niece, suggests a growing bond with the family.
Could Monica, in her final days, have decided to will the estate to Jason, her only surviving son? This would be a remarkable gesture of reconciliation, especially considering Jason’s tumultuous history with the Quartermaines. Such a move would no doubt ruffle feathers within the family, particularly for Tracy, who has always seen herself as the rightful matriarch of the estate. However, once the dust settles, Tracy may find that she can still assert her dominance and “run the place” as usual, even if Jason holds the title of owner.
The Road Ahead for the Quartermaines
As Jason and Tracy find themselves on the same side for now, the fate of the Quartermaine Estate—and the power dynamics within the family—remain in flux. With Monica’s passing, changes are inevitable, and the future of Port Charles may look very different as the Quartermaines adjust to their new reality. Will Jason take the reins of the estate, or will Tracy continue to wield her influence from behind the scenes? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: the Quartermaines are in for another dramatic chapter.
