Is Dante being killed off on General Hospital?
In the episode’s climax scene of General Hospital (released on March 4th), Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and a gunman attempt to target Sonny (Maurice Benard) from the warehouse's rooftop while John and Anna are questioning Sonny and Selina.
When a shot is fired, it causes Chase and Dante to go to the rooftop after the suspects. Dante approaches Jason and another man on the dock, where he is shot twice in the chest, severely wounding him. But the bullet does not kill off Dante.
The character of Dante remains in a coma. Some fans predict that Dante will die in what occurred as an unexpected story twist; others still hope that he will triumph against all the odds.
Since Dante is a beloved part of the show, he may return to General Hospital soon. Looking at his record, he also left the show, only to return in November 2018 and later in March 2019.
The makers likely decided to keep him in a coma to create more suspense and drama, as Dante is the only one who knows Jason did not shoot him. Waking him up too early would not cause tension when Jason's allies are revealed.
Did Sonny really shoot Dante? Plot explained
No, Sonny Corinthos( Maurice Benard) does not shoot Dante in GH. Though he plays the role of the manic-depressive mob kingpin living in Port Charles and has been involved in numerous conflicts and confrontations throughout the series, he also fathers Dante.
It was Valentin Cassadine who wanted Sonny Corinthos dead and was the mastermind behind the plot of hiring a gunman along with Jason to take a shot at Sonny. But as Dante intervened, he fell victim to the almost perfectly planned assassination attempt.
The bullet was indeed meant for Sonny, as it is revealed that there is a hole in his shirt’s sleeves after the first shot was heard; the bullet missed him and pierced through the fabric instead.
Daily soaps thrive based on suspense and unpredictability. General Hospital’s storyline is known for challenging and pushing characters to their limits. Dante’s character will be allowed to grow and evolve due to his current situation, which is becoming more vital than before.
Dante Falconeri's fate remains a mystery that only time will reveal. What we can be sure of is that Dante's role in GH is far from done, and viewers can expect an intense and emotional ride regardless of the ending. Viewers will support Dante as he battles for his life and future in Port Charles and takes on his biggest test.
