Sure Ava Jerome [Maura West] is a murderer, liar and cheat, but she’s also a great character and ‘General Hospital’ spoilers indicate that Ava is far from over and we’ve got lots more story to get out of her. Ava’s trial starts this week but this won’t go as easy as Ric Lansing [Rick Hearst] hopes – in fact, this could be the case that ends Ric’s short career as DA.
Admittedly, right now it’s not looking good for Ava. She’s in the PCPD lock-up, done up in jailhouse denims, no make-up and she’s looking pretty haggard. And when Julian Jerome [William deVry] came to visit, she lamented the loss of everything in her life including baby Avery and cried that Carly Corinthos [Laura Wright] would be Avery’s mom. But then look how things turned around (in a sick way) for Ava.
She told Julian she wished she could stop the wedding but is stuck in there with no recourse. Then, lo and behold, the wedding doesn’t happen because Sonny Corinthos [Maurice Benard] got shot. Ava’s also due to go on trial soon for the killing of Connie Falconeri and that seems like a slam dunk case, or does it? Scotty Baldwin [Kin Shriner] is going to volunteer to be her lawyer.
Now why would Scotty do that if he can’t win? Does Scotty know something about that critical piece of evidence against Ava that Ric doesn’t? Has it gone missing? Been corrupted? Or will Scotty, Franco or Julian get it out of Ric’s office and dispose of it? There’s no way Scotty will take a case he can’t win. He wants back in as DA and that means he needs to make Ric look bad and beat him soundly.
Plus Scotty wants revenge against Ric for him going so hard against his son Franco [Roger Howarth] when Franco was on trial for no reason. There’s also a mystery visitor coming to Ava’s trial who will help get her off on the murder charges. Sonny won’t like this, but Ava will walk out free and clear in a very short while. What then? Ava will have three targets: her lover and her two daughters.
‘General Hospital’ rumors indicate that Ava may already be pregnant again – this time with the child of her hot young lover Morgan Corinthos [Maurice Benard]. Plus, since she’ll be exonerated on the murder charges for Connie’s killing, Ava can go after custody of baby Avery. After all, Sonny and Carly are not married and, if Sonny is still hospitalized, it makes sense the baby would go to Ava.
That just leaves Kiki Jerome [Hayley Erin] but don’t look for Kiki to be an easy sell, especially if her mom is able to get back with Morgan using the baby as leverage. The dynamic between Kiki and Ava will be one to watch in coming weeks. Ava and Carly also have some face offs coming over who will be mother to baby Avery – plus Sonny will come out of his shooting furious that Ava got off on the murder charges.
But whatever you do, don’t count Ava out anytime soon. She’s like a cockroach you can’t kill – she came back from death, so don’t think the PCPD and Ric Lansing can keep her down…
