Background
Brando Corbin is first mentioned on June 25, 2019 by Mike Corbin. Mike mixes up Dev Cerci with Mike’s cousin’s son, Brando. Sonny Corinthos gets the idea to pass off Dev as Brando’s son, “Devin Corbin”. Sonny tries to pay off Mike’s cousin Gladys Corbin to claim that her son Brando had a fictional wife who he married in Iraq and brought back to the U.S. where his wife died giving birth to Dev.

Storylines
On January 30, 2020, it revealed that Brando is alive and he was disguised as one of Sonny’s warehouse men. He is shot during a gunfight in Sonny’s coffee warehouse while protecting Carly. Sonny’s warehouse man Tony tells Carly that the man who saved her doesn’t work for Sonny. Then Gladys comes out of hiding and recognizes her son Brando. On the episode that aired on January 31, 2020, as Brando recovers from his wound at General Hospital, Carly finds a picture of Gladys and Dev within Brando’s belongings. On February 3, 2020, Carly tells Sonny about the picture. Gladys is questioned by Sonny and she explained that Brando was dead to her since he had gotten involved with some bad people. Brando tells Sonny that he got in a big fight with Gladys and left Bridgeport. He followed Gladys on her MyFace page and she mentioned that she was staying with Mike’s son Sonny.
