It's almost New Year for the characters of ABC's hit drama series "General Hospital," and just before New Year's Eve, a lot of changes will be occurring, especially for Jason Morgan, Sam Morgan, Nikolas Cassadine and Liz Webber.

The four characters, who are currently in the center of the series, will soon hit a turning point in their lives for their actions in the past year such as Jason throwing Nikolas from the balcony and having him hospitalized in critical condition.

Soap Shows reports that Nikolas, being victimized by Jason, will soon wake up and take advantage of his situation to bring Jason down. Nikolas is well aware that he will be the determining factor of what will be Jason's future.

Liz will try to stop Nikolas' plan of putting Jason behind bars and will use her friendly relations with the currently hospitalized Nikolas; however, it will not work this time. Celeb Dirty Laundry reveals that Liz will suggest that it was only an accident, but Hayden Barnes will back up Nikolas and insist that Jason really did attack Nikolas.

As Hayden remains to be by Nikolas' side, still uninformed that Nikolas once tried to kill her, Sam Morgan is on Jason's side waiting if he will get back with her after finally telling the truth about Liz's lies.

According to the publication, Sam's future will be determined by the decision of the men in her life. Since Jason is preoccupied with his current case with Nikolas and the possibility that he might be imprisoned, and Patrick Drake has just reunited with Robin Scorpio, Sam will remain idle and will just wait for Jason since she knows that she and Patrick are practically over.

In fact, Patrick will be upfront with Sam and tell her that he will be with Robin and not her. Patrick and Robin will leave Port Charles next year, according to spoilers. The news outlet even speculates that the year might end with a proposal from him to Robin just before they leave and start a new life.

Although it remains to be mere speculations, "General Hospital" promises a week of new beginnings and endings for the characters in Port Charles, including a sneaky kiss between Johnny and Lulu.

All these and more will happen this week in "General Hospital," which airs weekdays on ABC.
