Storylines[]
Holly was first introduced when she met resident bad boy Luke Spencer while skinny dipping on a camping trip. Luke was immediately smitten with her and they ended up having a one night stand. But what Luke didn't know was that Holly was a con artist and set the whole thing up. Holly had previously played a principal role in an oil scam designed to bilk the citizens of Port Charles out of millions, but Luke refused to believe Holly was a professional grifter and went to great lengths to prove her innocence. In the end however, Holly was forced to admit the truth to Luke and help Luke to bring down her corrupt family. However during her efforts, Holly was kidnapped and Luke with the help of Robert Scorpio traveled to Vancouver, British Columbia to rescue her and recover the money that was stolen by her ex-cohorts.
After rescuing Holly, Luke and Holly returned home, but Luke was still hurt and angry over Holly's deception and felt that he could no longer trust her. They ended up having a terrible argument and in a fit of anger, Luke packed up his things and headed towards the mountains. Shortly afterwards, news arrived that there had been an avalanche and Luke was presumed dead. But in actuality, Luke had only broken his back and was recuperating in a remote hospital. A grief stricken Holly later found out that she was pregnant with Luke's child and she was also about to be deported. In honor of Luke's memory, Robert offered to marry Holly to keep her in the States and to help her raise Luke's child. Holly agreed and they were married, but unfortunately after the wedding Holly suffered a miscarriage. Through it all, Robert was there to support Holly and help her through and from there, their love story began.
Robert and Holly were both shocked and dismayed when Luke returned alive and well. Luke was devastated to discover that his best friend and ex-lover had not only gotten married, but had also actually fallen for one another as well. This ignited one of General Hospital's best love triangle stories. Holly found herself torn between the two men for a while; however, she came to realize the only man she ever truly loved was Robert. Robert and Holly Scorpio went on to become one of the most successful couples in GH history. Luke reunited with his first love Laura Webber Spencer and later Luke and Laura left town together, leaving Robert and Holly to continue on with their lives. When Luke and Laura left, the Scorpios took over as the main Supercouple on the show and helped maintain the show's stellar ratings. Robert and Holly were hailed by the fans and the press as the most romantic couple in Daytime. They broke the mold of soap couples by being happily married, totally devoted to each other while never being boring and always being frontburner. The chemistry, romance, class, sexiness and charm of this couple would delight millions of fans for the next few years to come.
In 1985, Robert and Holly's marriage was put to the test when Robert's secret ex-wife Anna Devane came to town. This shocking development drove a wedge into Robert and Holly's relationship, but they were able to reconcile with one another and decided to move to Australia to get away from all the unwanted drama. Holly went to Australia first, but Robert stayed behind to tie up loose ends. However, just after Holly left for Australia, Robert found a young girl in his home and it was soon revealed that the girl was Robin Scorpio, Robert's daughter with Anna, that she had kept hidden from him. After an adventure in the Asian Quarter with Robin and Anna, with Robert getting to know his daughter, he finally was able to join Holly in Australia.
In January of 1987, Holly crossed paths with Luke in Singapore. Luke was married to Laura at the time, but the two had a one night stand and Holly became pregnant. She concealed her pregnancy, never told Luke and disappeared. After her son was born, she left him with an adoptive family to be raised.
Later in 1987, Robert returned home to Port Charles with the sad new that Holly had been killed in a plane crash. Robert spent the next few years mourning the loss of his wife and going from one failed relationship to another before remarrying Anna in 1991 after the death of Anna's own husband, Duke Lavery. In 1992 Holly returned to Port Charles, making Robert and Anna's marriage invalid, and it was revealed that she had been in a car accident and fell into a coma. The coma lasted for two years and during this time, Holly's family did not let Robert know that his wife was alive. When Holly awoke, she found her husband engaged to another woman and feeling that it was too late to regain her life and happiness with Robert, she made the painful decision to stay away from him, to allow Robert his happiness.
When Robert and Holly's paths crossed again, Robert was shocked to find Holly alive. During their bittersweet reunion, Holly kept her true feelings for Robert a secret, so that she would not destroy his happiness with Anna. Robert was hurt and angry over the circumstances that had kept them apart, but in a short amount of time, he came to entrust Robin into the care of both Holly and his brother Mac Scorpio, while he left town to find Anna, who had been kidnapped. While Robert was gone looking for Anna, Holly and Robin forged a strong bond that became even stronger when the news arrived, that Anna and Robert had died in an explosion. Before going in search of Anna, Robert had divorce papers drawn up upon Holly's request to dissolve their marriage. However, after his and Anna's deaths, Holly tore up the divorce papers in grief. Devastated over Robert's "death", Holly continued to help Mac care for Robin and later dated Bill Eckert, Luke's look-alike cousin, before leaving Port Charles in 1993.
In February of 2006, Robert turned up alive and well and this news brought Holly back to Port Charles. After seeing her supposedly dead ex-husband Robert on TV and very much alive, Holly decides to get even with him by demanding a huge payout for the antidote to cure a mutant strain of encephalitis that had infected several residents of Port Charles, including Robert's daughter Robin. This was a very different Holly than had ever been seen before. Holly claimed that her drastic and rash actions were a result of her extreme hurt and anger over Robert really being alive all these years and not telling anyone.
During this storyline, she reunites with both her exes, Robert and Luke, before being hauled off to prison. Holly later manages to escape and goes on the run from bounty hunters with Robert and Luke. In the Markaam Islands, the trio are joined by Robert's daughter Robin, Luke's daughter Lulu Spencer, Patrick Drake Robin's boyfriend, Tracy's son Dillon Quartermaine, Anna Devane, Robin's mother and Luke's current wife Tracy Quartermaine. The rivalry between Luke and Robert for Holly's affections is briefly rekindled during this adventure and Holly plans a great escape with some found jewels, but her plan is thrwated when Anna interferes. Holly was last seen briefly in June 2006, taking a bubble bath, and calling Luke to lead him on a wild goose chase for the jewels.
Holly once again returned to Port Charles in 2009 to answer the question of whether or not new arrival, Australian born, Ethan Lovett was her son and also to reveal if Luke or Robert was his father. Ethan had previously met Holly while off on his travels, after his adopted parents died when he was 15, but he had no idea that Holly was his biological mother. During this encounter, Holly told Ethan about Luke and Robert and gave him a picture of the two men, which he carried with him when he went to Port Charles to find Luke. Holly confirms that she is Ethan's mother and initially reveals that Robert is his father on May 22, 2009, but after Robin tells Ethan that Robert was in Port Charles and not with Holly when he was conceived, Holly confesses that Luke is Ethan's father. After a DNA test between Luke and Ethan, this truth was confirmed. Both Luke and Ethan were angry with Holly for keeping this secret and Ethan felt hurt and abandoned, but Holly made peace with them both before she once again left town for London, England on June 2, 2009, presumably to be with Robert.
Holly returned to Port Charles again in 2012, just in time to stop Helena Cassadine from killing her son Ethan, at Wyndemere castle. Helena wanted revenge on Luke for killing her son Stavros Cassadine, so she was going to kill one of Luke's sons, Ethan, for retribution. Holly runs into the room and stops Helena just as she gives the order to kill Ethan. Holly explains that Helena would have nothing to gain by killing Ethan because he was Robert Scorpio's son and not Luke's. Helena does not believe Holly at first, but after Holly continues to stress that her story is true, Helena halts her revenge and orders a DNA test on Luke and Ethan. Helena and her minions leave to conduct the test leaving Holly, Luke and Ethan alone.
With Helena gone, Luke and Ethan demand the truth and Holly tells them she lied to save Ethan and Ethan really is Luke's biological son. Luke then leaves the two to go find Anna Devane and comfort her over the loss of her daughter Robin, which left Holly and Ethan time to bond. Luke finds Anna who shares with him that she is really worried about Robert, so Luke goes off to find him. Luke finds Robert on the side of a bridge about to jump off out of grief over losing Robin. In an effort to save his best friend and give him a purpose to continue living, Luke lies to Robert by telling him that Ethan is Robert's son, not his. Luke also tells him that Helena has taken Ethan captive and he needs to be rescued immediately. Luke then returns to Wyndemere and asks for Ethan's help in keeping up the lie. Holly is hesitant of of the plan, but finally agrees to go along with it, because it would keep Ethan safe from Helena. Ethan says goodbye to his parents and then leaves Port Charles. Soon after he leaves, Robert arrives at Wyndemere ready to save Ethan. Holly decides that she should accompany Robert to keep him off Ethan's trail and keep the ruse up for as long as possible. Holly and Luke say goodbye and then Holly leaves with Robert to find "their son."
In early January 2013, Anna Devane (with the real Duke Lavery) is at the medical institution in Switzerland and she says that Holly (off-screen) is there too since Robert Scorpio was injected with a deadly dose. On August 2nd, Luke is trying to get information from bank executive about Jerry Jacks' summer 2012 ransom scheme. Luke hits a roadblock with the executive and men dressed in all black come in. Someone shoots Luke, maybe Holly herself and the people in black get the bank executive to unlock the bank computer. The rest of the black-dressed crew escorts the bank executive and two security guards, while a mysterious person tries to find the information. Luke starts talking to the person nonchalantly. She takes off her mask and reveals herself to be Holly. Holly and Luke then go to Corinth, Pennsylvania (the setting for the now-cancelled soap Loving) that they suspect is Jerry Jack's hideout. They find an abandoned building and Dr. Liesl Obrecht arrives. Holly tries to get information from Dr. Obrecht, but Obrecht escaped from Holly's gunpoint while Luke go to investigate a mystery door. Luke finds Laura and learns that their "granddaughter" is being born. They split up with Holly tracking down Dr. Obrecht and Jerry Jacks, while Luke and Laura went back to Port Charles for the birth.
During the summer of 2015, Holly (off-screen) became aware that her son Ethan was staying at an apartment. She went to that apartment to visit him but was surprised and distraught to see the apartment was in shambles and in disaray, but not the slightest sign of Ethan. But she did find something interesting among all the mess, she found a book of matches that had a logo on it belonging to some hotel in Vancouver, Canada. So then she went there, gun-in-hand in case she ran into danger.
She then picked a hotel suite to raid and that when she--by chance--encountered Luke and Laura (this is when she appears on-screen). The two women point guns at each other because one thinks the other plays a role for her son's abduction until Luke makes the women lower their weapons. At which point, Holly is shocked when Laura reveals Lucky has been abducted as well. The two ladies team up with Luke to recover the two boys.
When they do find Ethan he is standing on a bomb, but Luke gets him off safety but then Holly and the rescue team are held hostage by Frank Smith. After Frank shoots Ethan, he lets Holly and Ethan go. Holly is last seen taking Ethan to the hospital. Meanwhile, Luke kills Frank to save his loved ones.
On April 14, 2020, Peter August ordered his henchman to provide a distraction for Robert Scorpio. On April 20, Robert received a phone call and was devastated to learn that Holly was killed when she drowned in a sinking ship. He is heartbroken and grieves for her. On May 6, it was revealed that Peter only wanted his henchman to "distract" Robert and didn't want him to kill Holly at all, but the henchman he hired claimed that he didn't kill Holly.
Robert becomes suspicious of the events surrounding Holly's alleged death and believes that she may still be alive. Others believe he is in denial, but he devises a plan to investigate what really happened with the ship.
On September 10, when Robert was in England with Olivia Quartermaine for Holly's memorial, he receives a distress call from a woman who sounds just like Holly, begging for help. The call originated from Monte Carlo, Monaco and Robert sets off to figure out what's going on with Olivia tagging along.
On September 17, while Robert and Olivia were at the Le Lucien Casino trying to gather intel on Holly's whereabouts, they found her son, Ethan Lovett there as well. Ethan revealed to Olivia that he was trying to find out who killed his mother and was keeping an eye on the owner, Winston Rudge. Olivia told Ethan that Robert believes Holly's still alive and when Robert saw Ethan, he punched Robert in the face which got them both escorted to a back room and tied up back to back in chairs. Ethan revealed that he staged the scene so they would be put in the back on purpose which Robert called a "classic Spencer move". After they got their ropes untied, Rudge and his men came in aiming guns at both of them.
On September 18, before being hauled off by the WSB, Rudge tells Robert and Ethan that he had been holding Holly prisoner at the Le Lucien, but they killed her when she got out of hand. After finding a burned body with Holly's wedding ring on top of it, Robert and Ethan accept Winston's account of the story, not realizing that it's a lie. Later, Holly is seen alive and being held captive in an undisclosed location by an unknown captor.
In November 2021, after Drew Cain, Britt Westbourne and Liesl Obrecht were saved from Cassadine Island, he told Anna Devane about a mysterious woman that was held in a nearby cell in the Compound Prison where Victor Cassadine held him for two years. Anna told him that they did a sweep but they didn't find anyone else in the prison.
On October 19, 2022, a mysterious woman was seen struggling to swim to shore and collapsed in the mud. She was laying still before she suddenly moved her hand. The mystery woman then stood up and walked barefoot between some large rocks, making her way to a path. The mystery woman then made her way to the Quartermaine boathouse.
Willow Tait was talking a walk and saw wet footprints near the boathouse, so she went in and screamed when she saw the mystery woman. Michael Corinthos found Willow on her way back after everyone heard her scream and Willow told him about the mystery woman, suggesting that she might've been the one who killed Brando Corbin. Michael grabbed a meat tenderizer from the kitchen and went after them.
Willow, Michael, Olivia and Ned Quartermaine went to the boathouse and after Willow told them to be careful, Olivia opened the door and was stunned when she saw who it was. When Detective Dante Falconeri and Robert got there, Olivia told him to brace himself for who he's about to see. When Robert went in, he was surprised to see Holly alive and well and she greeted him by saying, "Hello Robert".
When Robert tells her he thought she was dead and asked where she's been, she tells him she thinks she was being held on a boat but can't remember anything else. Robert gets her checked out at the hospital and her doctor, Austin Gatlin-Holt can't find anything wrong with her. While Robert leaves her alone, she asks to borrow his cell phone to call Ethan. She switches Robert's phone to "Do Not Disturb" instead.
On November 1, Holly reluctantly called a mysterious man to report on Robert, revealing that she's being forced to spy on him.
On November 3, after Robert walked Holly back to her room at the Metro Court, she pretended to be tired and went inside after they kissed, but she later went down to the footbridge and met with Victor, who was revealed to be the mysterious man she was reporting to. Holly reluctantly told him that Robert planned to find a judge to grant Anna bail before Victor asked her if any of her friends knew she was lying to them. Holly told Victor that betraying her friends wasn't fun - it was torture and Victor threatened to send her back to her cell, revealing that she was the mysterious prisoner in Crete, Greece. Holly reminded him of their arrangement - if Anna was sent to prison then he would let her go but Victor corrected her by saying once Anna was convicted then he would let her go but reminded her not to forget who she left behind. Holly threatened to kill Victor if he hurt "him" in any way, revealing that he's holding a mysterious man hostage to keep her in line.
On November 17, it was revealed that Holly was the one who shot Lucy Coe back in October. Victor had ordered her to impersonate Anna by wearing a prosthetic mask so when the drone footage was captured, it would look like Anna shot her.
On November 18, while Robert and Holly were at the Metro Court having breakfast, they talked about their history before Robert got a call about the safe-house Anna was hiding out in. When Holly had an opportunity, she looked at Robert's phone and got an address before he and Holly both left the Metro Court.
After Holly met with Victor on Pier 55, she gave him the address to the safe-house before he mentioned that he might have another assignment for her.
After he left, Robert sat down next to Holly and furiously told her that she had a lot of explaining to do. Holly tried to act innocent but Robert revealed that he set a trap and she took the bait before Robert furiously demanded an answer to how long she's been working for Victor. Holly finally admitted that she's working for Victor but told him that it's not by choice. Robert then said that everyone's in danger including her before he said he could help her but she needed to tell him everything. Holly began by revealing that she lied to him and she remembers everything about the past two years. Robert then gently told her to start from the beginning so she told him about how she was investigating Winston Rudge because rumor had it that Victor was alive and well. She said word must have got out because her cover was blown and she was held in the casino for weeks until she was able to make the call to him for help. Holly then revealed that as punishment, Victor revealed himself and made her watch as he murdered her half-sister, Paloma Perez. Robert remembered that Paloma looked just like Holly and remembered that the W.S.B. found a woman matching her description with her wedding ring. Holly added that with Paloma's body and falsified records then everyone would be led to believe she was dead.
Holly then revealed to Robert that she was held in luxury before her temper got the better of her and she was moved down to the prison level of the Cassadine Compound in Crete, Greece. Holly said that Victor moved her from place to place until he could see that she was useful to him, so he sent her to distract Robert and frame Anna. Robert was horrified when Holly revealed that she shot Lucy, but Holly swore that she didn't kill Lucy and she's alive. Holly told Robert about how Victor made her wear the prosthetic mask of Anna's face before she shot Lucy with a rubber bullet and fired a real one into the water to leave a shell casing and some residue. She revealed that Victor's men pulled her out of the water immediately and took her hostage. Robert wondered why Holly didn't go to the cops but Holly pleaded with Robert not to say anything because Victor can't know she betrayed him. Robert realized she was being blackmailed and wondered what Victor had on her, but Holly said "Not what. Who."
Holly then revealed that Victor kidnapped Ethan and is holding him hostage to keep her in line. She revealed that Ethan went back to the casino because he had some suspicions that she was still alive but then was kidnapped by Victor's men. Robert wondered why Ethan didn't tell anyone and Holly suggested that he may have wanted to find proof. Holly then got a text from Victor and told Robert he had to go, but Robert told her to put him off. Holly refused and said she couldn't before also saying that she's doing her best for Lucy, Anna and Ethan but something has to give. Robert agreed with her before he left.
When Victor arrived on the pier to tell her he wonders if Robert is as distrusting as she led him believe, she informs him she'd done everything she could to convince Robert she has no memory of the last two years and that he believes her but Victor angrily tells her to stop lying to him. Holly counters this by telling him he's the only person she isn't lying to and that she's betraying everyone she cares about because he's holding Ethan hostage. Victor says he's come too far and worked too hard that one more life means nothing to him, threatening to kill Ethan just as easily as he killed Luke but not quite as quickly as he killed Paloma, Holly's half-sister. Holly tells Victor he doesn't need to remind her of the people he'd taken away from her but Victor tells her she has a lot more to lose. Victor is about to make another threat but Holly reminds him that Robert miraculously believes her story. Victor then questions why Anna wasn't at the safehouse when police moved in to arrest her but the only explanation she has to offer is that Anna is an evasion expert and that if she doesn't want to be found, she won't be found.
Holly taunts Victor by asking him why his son Valentin isn't aiding and abetting his crimes, telling him he's going to be so lonely because he has no one to share the world he's creating for himself with. But when Victor warns her to be careful where she treads as he teaches her "the true meaning of loneliness", intimating him killing Luke and Paloma and his threat of killing Ethan, she sarcastically apologizes telling him she knows how loved he is, as she knows Robert loves her.
Holly asks to speak to Ethan, only for Victor to deny this request, saying "can't come to the phone right now." Holly then questions how she knows he's okay if he hadn't already been killed, but Victor says she'll just have to trust him. Holly counters saying he'll just have to trust that she'll take care of Robert. Their conversation is interrupted by a phone call from Gavin, a henchman Victor hired who tells him Robert has come into possession of a $35 million necklace, which Robert acquired from Britt and Cody with a policeman in tow after acquiring a warrant to confiscate it. The necklace had been placed into a briefcase which the policeman handcuffed to his wrist before Robert leaves the hospital with it. After taking the call, Victor tells Holly her "time has come", meaning Robert has something he wants and Victor is going to send Holly to get it from Robert for him. Victor explains that Robert is en route to the Metro Court with the briefcase and that Holly's job is to intercept him and get the briefcase from him. She agrees, saying that task is easy enough until he then tells her the briefcase had been handcuffed to his wrist. A bewildered Holly then questions how she's supposed to get him off him but Victor doesn't know, with "let Ethan be your inspiration" being his only advice for her. Holly insists that what he's asking her to do is impossible but Victor believes she's capable of getting it for him, unless for some reason Robert is on to Holly after all but Holly tells him it's a matter of logistics, not trust. Victor then tells Holly if that's the case she needs to get going and get to the briefcase before the WSB gets to it first.
Sometime later, Robert meets with Diane at the Metro Court where the two had a date. They discuss the rock, paper, scissors game, which Diane wonders what it has to do with the contents of the briefcase. He explains it contains a $35 million necklace. Holly arrives, where she takes a call from Victor reminding her of her mission to get the briefcase from Robert, threating her to not let the WSB get it first or Ethan will pay for her failure with his life. Holly then sits at Robert's table where she meets Diane for the first time. Holly gleefully mentions that they both have something in common -- they've both cheated death.
In November, Selina worked with Holly to drug Victor's drink in order for Holly to blackmail Victor into releasing her son Ethan.
On March 9, 2023, Selina calls Holly to let her know the drug they gave Victor to chemically castrate him is taking effect.Crimes Committed[]
