As all of us celebrate and honor our fathers and father figures, SOAPnet will also celebrate by airing a mini marathon on Sunday, June 20 with back-to-back episodes of ABC’s General Hospital in a block they’re calling “Sins of the Father.”
Mobster Sonny Corinthos has grown to respect and admire his newest employee Dominic Pirelli. But their relationship takes a turn for the worse when the mafia boss learns that the man he’s considering entrusting his empire to is really an undercover cop. Sonny gets his revenge for the betrayal by shooting Dominic, but he’s in for the shock of his life—he’s actually just shot his own son, Dante Falconeri.
