As the life-threatening incident leaves one of the three characters fighting for survival, many viewers are wondering whether a potential exit could be on the cards.

Who got shot on General Hospital?

Nathan Dean’s Ethan got shot on General Hospital. However, there are no confirmed reports that suggest Dean is departing the show.

The tragic incident takes place at the Jerome gallery. Sidwell had Ethan, Ava, and Justin held at gunpoint. He also warns that he might take away Ava. He then specifically aims his gun towards Ava, who confronts him about his behavior. Ava tells Sidwell that Marco won’t be happy with him after learning he was responsible for Lucas’ demise. Marco’s name triggered Sidwell, who attempted to pull the trigger on Ava and planned to take Justine hostage. Fortunately, Ethan came in the middle and saved Ava’s life; meanwhile, Justine dealt with Sidwell.

The reason he targeted Ava was that he believed Sonny might come to negotiate with him to rescue his beloved. Though Ethan was badly hurt, he and Ava somehow made it to the storeroom to hide. He revealed that he had been hurt on the butt. They didn’t have a phone to call for help; therefore, Ava used clothes to cover his wounds and stop the bleeding. Despite being in a critical situation, the duo continued their arguments, with Ava asking Ethan why he saved her. In pain, Ethan responded that it was just his instinct.

Meanwhile, Sidwell asks Justine to call Sonny and summon him to the gallery alone. Sonny ultimately comes, only to see Justine being held at gunpoint. Sidwell asks him to be careful while reacting.
