General Hospital Spoilers: Sonny is horrified to discover that Brick is a traitor
In a stunning turn of events on General Hospital, Sonny Corinthos finds himself confronting a betrayal that cuts deeper than any he’s faced before. The longtime mob boss of Port Charles has long suspected that a traitor was embedded within his inner circle—someone close enough to sabotage deals, leak confidential plans, and compromise his operations with precision timing.
The tipping point comes when Sonny, hospitalized following a cardiac emergency, narrowly escapes an assassination attempt by a nurse disguised in scrubs. The attack confirms his worst fear: someone with inside access wants him dead.
Following the botched hit, Sonny launches a covert investigation, scrutinizing every ally, every communication, and every alibi.
The methodical search leads to an unthinkable discovery—Brick, Sonny’s trusted confidant and cybersecurity specialist, is the mole.
Evidence piles up, from encrypted messages to suspicious bank transfers, and when confronted, Brick doesn’t deny the accusations—he runs.
Sonny sets a relentless manhunt in motion, deploying every resource to track Brick. Eventually, Brick is lured out of hiding by false intel and apprehended alive. Under interrogation, Brick reveals a far more sinister reality: he was blackmailed by a coalition comprised of Tracy Quartermaine, Selena Wu, and the elusive financier known as Sidwell. Their objective? To dismantle Sonny’s empire and divide his territory.
Each member of the alliance played a strategic role—Selena orchestrated the assassination attempt, funded by Sidwell’s offshore accounts; Tracy provided financial cover and political influence; and Brick’s betrayal was coerced through threats to his sister’s life. Despite the betrayal, Sonny chooses not to kill Brick. Instead, he exiles him permanently from Port Charles.
Now fully aware of the alliance’s coordinated attack, Sonny initiates a calculated counter-offensive. Selena’s operations begin to falter under a string of mysterious setbacks—raided warehouses, intercepted shipments, and legal entanglements. Tracy finds herself under IRS scrutiny when Sonny exposes her illicit financial dealings. Meanwhile, his team digs into Sidwell’s background, uncovering links to a dismantled intelligence network and draining his assets one by one.
Despite recovering from heart surgery, Sonny’s health continues to decline, exacerbated by stress and relentless pressure. Carly urges him to abandon the path of vengeance before it consumes him, but Sonny is unwavering. “I’m not coming back,” he tells her. “I’m going through.”
The fallout is far from over. As Sonny wages war against his enemies, the lines between loyalty and betrayal blur. With old alliances crumbling and new threats emerging, Port Charles braces for the next chapter in this escalating battle for power.
