Parry Shen, who plays Brad Cooper on General Hospital, continues to churn out hilarious videos on social media. With Van Hansis taking over the role of Brad’s ex-husband Lucas Jones, it seems like sparks are starting to fly between them, and they may be headed for a reconciliation. Shen took the time to make a video that takes place on another Earth, changing the outcome of a scene with hysterical results.

Alternate Brad was eavesdropping

Previously-“ish” on #GH: Carly tells Lucas to stay away from Brad. Imagine in an alternate universe, if Brad had heard this.

The General Hospital scene that he was referring to was when Lucas went to the hospital locker room and beat himself up over the death of Sam (Kelly Monaco). Brad cautiously approached, and although Lucas had previously told him to just keep their relationship professional, the two commiserated, with Brad lending a kind ear to Lucas’ tale of woe. Carly walked in and nearly flipped her wig when she saw the two in an embrace.

When Lucas and Brad were married, they had adopted a baby. One night, Lucas went to work at General Hospital, Brad was tasked with caring for the child. Sadly, the baby died of SIDS, and a panicked Brad took him to the hospital. However, along the way, he was overcome by grief and pulled over where he met the evil Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) who had just given birth to her own baby on the side of the road. She coerced Brad into swapping his dead child for her living one, and he agreed.

Eventually, the secret got out, and Lucas was so furious that he left Brad. He ultimately divorced him, leaving town shortly after. So this time around, Lucas wasn’t concerned with Brad’s past misdeeds as he was too worried that he may have caused Sam’s death during the surgery where he took part of her liver that was to be implanted in a comatose and dying Lulu Falconeri (Alexa Havins).

When Carly caught the two together, she yelled at Brad to get away from Lucas and leave him alone.

Shen’s video had text overlaid, stating:

Previously-“ish,” on General Hospital…#Brad #Lucas #Carly #GH
*Not actually part of episode.

The scene with Carly scolding Brad played out, as Carly screamed:

What the hell makes you think Lucas would want anything to do with you?!

It continued with Brad exiting and Carly warning a distraught Lucas that Brad was a no-good schemer who would attempt to turn the tragedy of Sam’s death into an excuse for them to get back together. Meanwhile, Shen dressed in Brad’s hospital attire steps out of a room as if he was still in the scene and could hear them through the door.

Shen listened to the conversation as it played out, and when Carly stated:

There are so many people you can turn to for support. Please don’t let it be Brad.

At this, Shen reacted in horror with perfect comedic timing.

Fans loved the video, as well as the idea of a possible Brad/Lucas reunion. @cpczimback0928, a viewer with a forgiving heart, lovingly responded to Shen’s video:

I’m so glad Brad is back! And I think they will get back together. It’s been long enough since Brad stole a baby and lied about whose baby it was 😂.
