He is next in a straight line.
We know a chemistry test when we see one, and General Hospital is most definitely chem testing Alexis and Sidwell. On paper, it doesn’t make much sense. He is an evil lawbreaker. And she is good, noble, honest, and pure of heart. Well, when she isn’t covering up her daughter’s attempted murder. Or covering up what she thinks is her daughter’s earlier successful murder. Or her own criminal acts. Or lying about her kids’ paternity. Or…the point is, Alexis isn’t nearly as good, noble, honest, and pure of heart as she likes to claim she is. And she has a type when it comes to men. Boy, does she have a type when it comes to men, which is why Sidwell is a perfect fit.
Best Man
Sonny (Maurice Benard) is the father of Alexis’ (Nancy Lee Grahn) most messed-up kid, Kristina (Kate Mansi) — oh, gosh, we wonder why the gangster’s daughter is so messed up? He is a mobster who orders killings and kidnappings like he has same-day shipping on Amazon.
He is the biggest and the baddest criminal Port Charles has ever seen. But he has the most adorable dimples. This means that Alexis will not only overlook the situation but also defend his actions.
Runner Up
Ric (Rick Hearst) is the father of Alexis’ most levelheaded daughter, Molly. Ric is Sonny’s half-brother. And he is half the criminal Sonny is. Ric has kidnapped Carly and kept her prisoner. He married Nina (Cynthia Watros) for her money while sleeping with her mother, Madeline (Donna Mills).
Currently, he is in the middle of a blackmail scheme. But he is one hot, silver fox. This means that Alexis might not defend him as passionately as she does Sonny, but she won’t completely condemn him.
Mistakes Were Made
The father of Alexis’ oldest daughter, Sam (Kelly Monaco), was Julian (William DeVry). He was also a mobster. Who also held a knife to Alexis’ threat and threatened to slice her on the spot.
But did you see those abs? Those abs helped Alexis overlook…a lot, which brings us to our main point. Sidwell (Carlo Rota) is Alexis’ type exactly. If she claims otherwise, she should be encouraged to take a stroll down memory lane. And reminded of it.
