General Hospital (GH) Spoilers: Olivia Plays Matchmaker For Dante and Sam?

General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that for awhile Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zomprogna) and Samantha McCall (Kelly Monaco) were becoming more than just friends. Dante was supportive through Alexis Davis’ rock bottom alcoholic binge. Alexis had shown no signs of even wanting to quit drinking until a heated exchange between her daughter Sam and Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth) was convincing enough to Alexis in her drunken state that she picked up a syringe loaded with Lidocaine (although Alexis had no idea what it was at the time) and ran toward Franco with the intent to inject Franco and save her daughter. Dante stepped in between Alexis and Franco and before Alexis realized what she was doing, she had given Dante the drug instead. Dante fell to the ground in pain!

General Hospital Spoilers – Dante Falconeri recovered from the attack and testified on Alexis Davis’ behalf!

The doctors and nurses at General Hospital were able to save Dante. This was good news for Alexis would at least wouldn’t have to face a murder charge, but she knew there was no getting around what she had done. She finally took responsibility for her drinking and part of that meant she was planning to plead guilty to the remaining assault charge. In the meantime, Sam cared for Dante as he recovered in his hospital room.

The were both have a rough time of late with the people they thought they were going to be with forever. So the two of them began to bond and Sam was touched Dante not only accepted Alexis’ apology but he testified on her behalf at the trial. Since there was a guilty plea, all that remained was for the judge to sentence Alexis. While it was a 3 year sentence, it could have been much worse. Sam was upset of course, but then she turned her attention to Dante’s strange behavior.

General Hospital Spoilers – Dante Falconeri had been programmed to obey Leisl O’Brecht!

Dante hasn’t been back in Port Charles all that long as he had been brainwashed during an undercover mission in Turkey. Not able to fully trust his actions when he returned he checked himself into the WSB Treatment Facility located in Geneva, Switzerland. But unknown to anyone, Leisl O’Brecht (Kathleen Gati) was transferred there as well and convinced Dante’s doctor to keep his programming but let her control him with a click of her pen.

The doctor complied and Dante soon returned to the states with O’Brecht following as soon as Dante found proof that she had been framed for the crimes she had been arrested for. So once she was able to travel freely, O’Brecht returned to Port Charles. First she ordered Dante to protect Franco at all costs, which is why he saved Franco from Alexis lethal injection! But it was his next assignment that would have led Dante to murder Peter August (Wes Ramsey).

General Hospital Spoilers – Dante Falconeri returns to a seriously understaffed Police Department

With Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) struck down by a mysterious illness, Dante temporarily return to help out at General Hospital after Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) escaped police custody while being treated for minor injuries. Sam is not happy with Dante because she isn’t fond of the police. It almost seems as if her attraction to Dante had evaporated when something began to happen. Sam pretended to want to work with Dante to find Jason, but her real goal was to help Jason stay on step of the police so she could join him on the run! But Sam and Dante’s sweet friendship changed at that point to antagonistic banter. But it was obvious that now there was a sexual tension between them that wasn’t present before.

General Hospital Spoilers – Sam Morgan was sent home by Jason Morgan!

Sam eventually found Jason and Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) at one of Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Bernard) safe houses. Assuming that Jason would rather be with her, Sam tried to send Britt home. But Jason shocked Sam by sending her home instead and asking Britt to remain. Jason reminded Sam that they had broken up so his lifestyle wouldn’t bring any harm to their kids. Once again, Sam was trying to have what she didn’t have at that moment. So a dejected Sam has returned to Port Charles, where she and Dante seem not to be able to do anything but verbally spar with each other. While Sam may have seen Dante as just a friend before, once he returned to the force, she seems to have a sexual interest in him and vice-versa.

General Hospital Spoilers – One person who will certainly notice Dante Falconeri and Samantha McCall’s behavior change is Olivia Falconeri!

Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero) has already sort of pushed Dante in Sam’s direction. But there didn’t seem to be any spark or romantic interest between them. So you can be sure she will take notice immediately of sudden physical attraction to one another. So look for Olivia to play matchmaker for them with a renewed vigor even though Dante will tell her to butt out. He will Sam all by himself, he will likely assure his very pleased mother!

General Hospital Spoilers – What will happen?

Are Sam and Dante past the friend zone now that Dante is back on the police force? Is there now a more physical attraction brewing for them or will they continue to miss their exes and be miserable? And will finding out that Jason and Britt have slept together sending Sam right into Dante’s bed? Will Olivia continue to meddle in Dante’s life? Sam seems to want a very specific type so stay tuned to General Hospital airing weekdays on ABC.
