Her association with him nearly put her in extreme danger, and now, Patrick (Jason Thompson) will begin putting up resistance when it comes to Sam's (Kelly Monaco) unexplainable connection and friendship with Jake (Billy Miller) on General Hospital.

Jake and Sam Try Figuring Out What Hayden Knows

Patrick never was overly fond of Sam's willingness to forgive him for all the things he did while under Helena's mind control, but now, after realizing she was at the garage with him, confronting him about potentially being responsible for Duke's murder despite promising he didn't want anything to do with the mob lifestyle, when Hayden (Rebecca Budig) was shot, he is less than thrilled about the other man taking up time in her life. And now, following the news that Hayden is going to potentially be in a coma for the rest of her life, Patrick will confront his live-in girlfriend about the connection she keeps seeming to have to Jake.

"I need to know why you were in the line of fire with somebody who was trying to kill you," Patrick says to Sam in a preview clip for the Thursday, May 21 episode.

Jake/Jason In Danger After He Is Blamed For Duke's Murder

Sam won't likely be able to really explain her connection with Jake very well however, as it is something she can't understand either--since she is unaware he is really her back from the dead husband, Jason.

Meanwhile, knowing that there are potentially still hits out on him following the reveal that he is believed to be Duke's murderer, Jake will once again try to convince Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) that it's too dangerous for them to be together--something she won't handle well since she knows the truth about his real identity--and is keeping it a secret so she can finally have a chance with the man she never got to keep.

"I can't see you anymore," Jake says to her in the clip.
