Asher is the tenth actor to play Danny since the character’s creation in 2012, and the fifteenth if you include the twins. Jason and Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) got married on September 22, 2011, and left for their honeymoon in Hawaii in early October.

During the honeymoon, Sam became pregnant with Jason’s baby, but she only found out on New Year’s Eve after taking a pregnancy test.

Franco, (originally James Franco) had a strange fixation on Jason; he followed them on their honeymoon and played a cruel trick, making them think Sam had been raped.

He later retracted this when the character returned, played by Roger Howarth, saying it was a sick joke; he later became known as Franco Baldwin.

At first, people thought Danny was Jason and Sam’s child because of a paternity test; Sam dealt with severe morning sickness and some cramping, along with a lot of stress.

Later, in late April to early May, Sam was kidnapped at gunpoint by Lt. Ronnie Dimestico (Ronnie Marmo) but was rescued by Det. John McBain (Michael Easton).

After Jason was presumed dead for the first time, Dr. Silas Clay (Michael Easton) found out that baby Danny had leukemia, leading to a search for a bone marrow donor.

Julian Jerome (William DeVry), who was in witness protection as Derek Wells, turned out to be a match, revealing that he was Sam’s biological father.

Danny recovered and has not had any leukemia issues since, although Julian stored some of his bone marrow just in case.
