As the mob war in Port Charles continues to heat up, the question about who is really iving orders around town still has not been answered on General Hospital.

Ric's Arrest Stuns His Loved Ones?

It is now widely believed that Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) is the one who has been the behind-the-scenes boss of Julian Jerome's (Michael DeVry) operation, and he has been sitting in jail ever since he was set up by Julian to take the fall. However, he truly always has been just his lawyer -- and Fake Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary) has been the real boss.

Unfortunately for Ric, no one really believes his protests that he is innocent, least of all his half-brother and the other major town mobster, Sonny (Maurice Bernard). Still, despite the overwhelming evidence seemingly stacked against him, he will make one last plea to his sibling to believe him.

Luke Gives Julian Orders To Start 'Moving Product' Again?

"I am not your enemy! I'm being set up," Ric says in a preview clip for the Tuesday, June 10 episode.

Though Sonny may have a hard time believing in his brother's innocence, Julian could confess to his newest confidante and organization member, Jordan (Vinessa Shaw), who took the fall for him when his shipment of drugs into Port Charles was thwarted.

"Ric Lansing is not the man I answer to," he says.

Julian is unaware, however, that Jordan is actually a DEA agent who is working undercover in his organization -- and if he tells her who his real boss is, it could mean big trouble for the organization.

General Hospital airs Monday-Friday at 2 p.m. on ABC.
