Now that General Hospital's Tracy (Jane Elliot) is going to be away, helping her son, Dillon, in Bangkok, all sorts of things can go wrong in the Quartermaine family during her absence. Here are five potential disasters that could happen while Tracy is gone.
Jude might succeed in taking Phoebe from Brook Lynn

Now that Jude Jacks (Wil Traval) has darkened the Quartermaine's doorstep, claiming to be Phoebe's biological father, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) has a huge problem on her hands. Tracy would like to be there for her granddaughter during this time, if only she could be. After all, Jude claims that he's the son of serial killer Jerry Jacks (Sebastian Roche). Brook Lynn and Chase (Josh Swickard) legally adopted Phoebe, so this is all very confusing and messy.
Jude claims that he has proof that he's Phoebe's father. What if he somehow manages to secure custody of Phoebe while Tracy is away? Brook Lynn sure could use her grandmother's support right now, because her battle with Jude is about to get ugly.
Lucy and Serena could regain control of Deception

When Serena tried to offer Jason a fake alibi for Carly (Laura Wright) in exchange for full control of Deception Cosmetics, many GH fans were shocked and annoyed that Jason sat there listening to her for so long. Why did he give her so much of his time? That was unlike him.
And now that Joe (Jonathan Bennett) told Serena that Carly has been released from police custody, Serena is trying to pull another fast one on Jason. She's trying to make him think that she was the one who got Carly released when it was actually Tristan (Dean Geyer) who did that.
Will Jason buy her story? Let's hope not. If he gives her back control of Deception, then Tracy will have a fit upon her return. She will never trust him again. The GH writers have spent too much time establishing a nice bond between Jason and Tracy, so we would hate to see it all fall apart just because of Serena's shenanigans.
Ned could suffer a setback in his health

A few weeks ago, Tracy was horrified when she caught Ned (Wally Kurth) eating a burger. She immediately put Jason on notice, telling him that all of the Quartermaines need to keep Ned's dietary habits in check, since he had a heart attack last year.
Tracy gave Jason a multitude of duties to oversee in her absence. What if Ned sneaks another burger or some other unhealthy meal while Jason is otherwise preoccupied with ELQ or Deception? We can't imagine that Jason will be able to monitor every single thing that Ned eats. After all, Ned could always go to Bobbie's diner and order a cheeseburger without anyone in his family knowing.
What if Ned has a medical crisis while Tracy is away? With both Tracy and Michael (Rory Gibson) out of the country and Brook Lynn preoccupied with the Jude situation, Jason will most likely get the brunt of Tracy's anger.
Danny's rebellious behavior could spiral out of control

Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) has been mixed up in all kinds of trouble lately. He stole Chase's truck, he left Jack's (Chris McKenna) dead body in the Metro Court pool without calling the police, and he got into a physical fight with Rocco (Finn Carr).
Danny is also struggling with grief since he lost his mother, Sam (Kelly Monaco). To make matters worse, Drew (Cameron Mathison) can't stand him, and he won't allow Danny to see his own sister, Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski). And to top it all off, Danny was shocked when he caught Rocco and Scout kissing.
Danny has been spiraling emotionally for a while now. He's been struggling with so many different issues that have been piling up, one after another. What if something finally pushes him over the edge while Tracy is away?
Willow could do something unpredictable and dangerous

Tracy hates that Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) is living in the gatehouse, right there on the Quartermaine grounds. We know she isn't stable, considering that she shot Drew twice and injected him with a paralytic drug that kept him in a wheelchair and speechless for months. Sometimes we wonder whether the Quartermaines are safe with Willow living on the property with them.
What's worse is that Michael isn't home and keeping an eye on her. He's in Germany with Jordan (Tanisha Harper) while she undergoes surgery to remove her facial and neck scars. And the way that storyline has been dragging on, who knows how long it will be before he actually does return home?
Jason assured Tracy that he has everything under control and that he can handle everything she wants him to do. But we get a bad feeling that something is going to go wrong. He has to juggle so many tasks while she's gone that we feel like there's going to be some kind of catastrophe. If everything goes smoothly, then that wouldn't be soapy and dramatic.
Do you think something will go wrong for the Quartermaines while Tracy is away? What do you think will happen? Sound off in the comments.
