‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: Is Dex Heller the Hook Killer?
General Hospital’s Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) is about to become the #1 suspect in the hook attacks. And he may take the fall while the real psycho runs free and plans their next attack on the ABC sudser.
General Hospital Sets Dex Heller up as Red Herring
Currently, things aren’t looking too good for GH newbie Dex Heller. When Brando Corbin (Johnny Wactor) was questioned about his attack, he said he heard jewelry jingle. Then, the scene cuts to Dex’s dog tags making noise.
But, there’s something the writers didn’t consider — special forces soldiers like Dex have rubber frames around their dog tags. So, they don’t make noise. In fact, most soldiers do that nowadays.
That being said, all signs are starting to point to the mob errand boy on General Hospital. And he might become the top suspect. Soon, he’s in the hot seat, and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) demands answers.
So, the kingpin may wonder if his righthand man is guilty. After all, Brando was suspicious of him since day one and they never really got along.
Also, his real boss, Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) hates the first victim, Ava Jerome (Maura West). Plus, Dex Heller is overly eager to please his bosses.
And he was close by at the time of both attacks. So, the newcomer has a lot of explaining to do soon on General Hospital. However, if the PCPD focuses on Dex, it gives the real culprit an advantage.
Esme Prince Deranged Hook Killer on GH
It seems likely that Dex is a red herring because odds are evil Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) is the attacker. Indeed, the psycho teen despises Ava. Plus, it’s clear that Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) was the second target.
But Brando showed up at the wrong time. And General Hospital fans know how much Esme hates Joss. So, it is highly likely the she-villain is not dead and is running around Port Chuck trying to knock off her enemies.
Soon, another life is at risk, and Hamilton Finn (Michael Easton) struggles to save a new victim at GH. So, the Hook Killer attacks again and likely follows the same pattern.
Who Gets the Hook Next on General Hospital?
Next week, someone else’s life hangs in the balance and whoever it is likely has a connection to Esme. Recent spoilers suggest it could be Rory Cabrera (Michael Blake Kruse).
He is connected to Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) who’s at the top of the crazy teen’s enemy list. So, the villainess may target Rory to hurt Trina. However, it could go a different direction on General Hospital.
The not-so-dead teen might go after Trina and Rory may save her life. Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) could also be in danger from his demented ex-girlfriend. But he’s in prison right now.
So, it’s not as easy for her to get to him. Soon, the crime spree continues. But if Dex is in police custody during the next attack, it should clear his name.
It’s one twist after another on GH. Port Charles will never be the same after Brando’s death. And Dex Heller may pay the price while Esme strikes again on the ABC sudsfest.
