This episode originally aired on 1/18/99. It was rebroadcast during SoapNet's General Hospital 50th anniversary marathon on 3/29/13 through 4/1/13.

She thought she was "freeing," Jason from Carly, she never understood he didn't want to be free, even after he straight told her he couldn't imagine a future without Carly in it.

[@renealexander2703]

Jason loved Carly.

[@smickitoad]

[@jarlymorgan]

Jason did too 😂😂😂

[@TeresaWilliams-fz6ks]

Looking at thus now. Robin was right.

[@kaitykaity]

⁠@@TeresaWilliams-fz6ks Robin was an insufferable, hypocritical, jealous little Pwincess who threw a tantrum when she lost Jason to Michael and his mother.

[@carriesobek1591]

Robin did all this for the wrong reasons. She said so Carly couldn't do this or that. Yet Carly loved Jason more than Robin ever could. Never liked her. She just didnt want Carly to have Jason

[@OneGaurdian]

Shew loved that Jason always sided with her against everyone - including his own family, even when she's in the wrong.

[@kaitykaity]

“I did the right thing” is cold comfort for breaking your man’s heart.

[@arrianawilliams6368]

She didn’t do that for the right reasons in that moment she did that because she thought that she could control the outcome and It didn’t go the way she thought it was gonna go with Jason being Okai and say thank you robin for freeing him but instead she hurt him more than anyone else

[@Ashleyludwig901]

She only did it so Carly stay out of his life and wanted to control him like she always did

[@merylmaks8655]

Robin didn't realize how much he loved Michael and Carly, too.

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

Jason loved Michael even more than he loved Robin, and that should have told her all she needed to know.

[@brynne77]

Probably true. Carly should have never asked him to look after Michael or have him put his name on the birth certificate.

[@ladyd712]

I really hate Robin. She did it so she wouldn't be around Carly. What a snake.

[@kimberlywiederhold627]

She also revealed Nicholas was Spencer's father. Never tell Robin a secret.

[@ErinFindsHerWay]

Yeah, but one of the reasons is because Carly wanted to be Spencer’s “mom.” It’s doubtful he would have been better off with Carly and Jax.

[@kimberlywiederhold627]

@@ErinFindsHerWay my point was if you want to keep a secret don't tell Robin. As for who Spencer would be better off with I would look for an option C.

[@s.a.9382]

Michael was never going to be anyone's but Carly.

[@leaf_fan_b3829]

Robin didnt have a problem with Jason raising Michael as long she could be his mother and not Carly. Robin was jealous of Carly and her friendship with Jason

[@edennewsome]

Exactly 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😊

[@brynne77]

No, as Robin pointed out, Carly often used Michael to get what she wanted from men (Here, mainly those men were Jason and Sonny). I think she did the right thing, but unfortunately lost Jason over it. I think as someone else said, Jason loved Michael more than Robin. I would have been tempted to do the same thing. But so many people are so fascinated by Carly's scheming ways, they like her and want her and Jason to raise the baby, even though she often used Jason in mean ways that Jason didn't understand.

[@Ashleyludwig901]

Why is it her decisions to tell the truth when she didnt tell Patrick drake about her being pregnant i know he didnt want to be the father but still has the right to know

[@bettyboop90]

Everybody has blamed Carly for what went wrong in their relationships with Jason but she couldn't do anything that Jason didn't allow her to do when Carly had a problem Jason dropped everything to go help her whether it was big or small. Here it is 24 years later & if Jason was still alive nothing would be any different bc Carly holds a place in Jason's heart that's eternal no matter who's he with Carly will always in his life. Now for Robin she was wrong bc it wasn't her place to tell A.J about Michael being his son & she could've at least told Jason she was going to tell A.J the truth but she went to A.J first then came to Jason to explain why she did what she did but either way it was going to blow up in her face & destroy their relationship.

[@sandrajohnson4778]

So true....Robin and Robin alone ruined their relationship. 😊

[@aph1976]

I'm sort of torn about this because one hand i understand why Robin did what she did but on the other hand it wasn't her secret to tell.Plus she should have told Jason that she was going AJ the truth before she did it and that way at least Jason could hear Robin's reasons for doing it beforehand and not be caught off-guard.

[@jorydwilliams-negron59]

I think the 2024 term for Robin's behavior of telling AJ about his child would be.... she was being messy and petty af. Robin is very messy telling AJ about his child and then telling Nick cassadine about his child she was being very messy and Petty

She didn’t have any idea what a good Mom CARLY would eventually turn out to be; and that it is all a learning process. It was really none of ROBIN’S business. (But I grew to like ROBIN again later, tho.)

[@maureenmeagher6415]

The funny part is, Robin actually thought people were going to kiss her ass for telling AJ the truth about Michael, but she lost everything! I laughed my ass off when everyone turned on her! And then for her just to drop this bombshell and leave town, totally wrong! And Jason is the father on the birth certificate so he has as much rights to Michael as Carly! Robin just wanted to be a little brat and blow everything apart and then skip town.

[@brynne77]

No, Robin did that because Cary was using Michael as a MEAL TICKET and a way to use and manipulate Jason. But I don't think Jason saw it that way. I don't think he was able to understand that Carly was using him.

[@maureenmeagher6415]

@@brynne77 she should've let Jason find out on his own, he's a big boy. Robin was so jealous of the bond between Jason and Carly and Michael it wasn't even funny. She dropped the bomb because she realized that Jason wasn't going to leave Carly and Michael.

[@dianaschroeder9527]

All this time I thought, how could these writers put Robin and Jason together? That’s why I always skipped over most of their scenes (because I can’t stand the Robin character)…. But now I get it! She loves to feel superior over everyone! She’s the self appointed morals police in Port Charles so of course it would feed her ego to be with someone she felt she had to constantly correct and teach “right from wrong”…..now it makes sense!

[@brynne77]

No, you are very wrong, diana. Robin does not have a huge ego. But you can go on thinking that way because it sounds like you've convinced yourself you're right.

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

Carly is the one with the ego, that’s why other parasites and users look up to her.

[@redpia215]

Wasn’t Michael just blackmailing Nina (over her SEC lie to Sonny)? Jason was 100% right!

[@maureenmeagher6415]

I hated how people would say that Sonny broke his promise to Stone by writing Robin off, but Robin was completely dead wrong here.

[@sandrajohnson4778]

Agreed.....Robin did this to herself and I was very happy that they turned their back on her....she was the biggest hypocrite.

So did I . I loved the Robin who loved Stone but when it came to Michael, it wasn’t her secret to tell.

Robin was family to Sonny until Carly deposited herself into it. I felt bad for Robin she was never going to fit into that world. It was time for her exit. It was better that she controlled the narrative than being pushed out without a cause of her own making.

[@AriesMars203]

Robin did cause herself to be pushed out. Her relationship with Sonny is fine, At this time Sonny hated Carly. Her going behind Jason's back and asking Sonny to fire him is what killed her relationship to Jason. She told because she wanted Carly gone, but Jason didn't want Carly gone. You are right on the part where she was never gonna fit into their world.

Definitely one of the most selfless things Robin did. Took a lot of strength. Everything Robin said about what Carly was doing was spot on and the evidence is in the storylines. Scenes like this you really are reminds how much Jason has changed.

[@lordehooks7799]

I actually see Robin being the one who was manipulating Jason here. Carly is honest with him right or wrong and he made his choice. It was wrong what they did to AJ - agreed. But Robin had a long time playing family with J&M when Carly was away and didn't say a word. Robin was always trying to manage J. iMO, she was simply jealous and spiteful and turned him exactly toward the person she wanted out of his life. Should AJ know it was his kid. Absolutely. But Robin didn't tell him, at that moment, for that reason.
