Granddaughter of Audrey Hardy, Elizabeth was a scheming teenager who came to live with her grandmother and sister Sarah after her parents left the country. Though naturally antagonistic towards her more amenable sister, Elizabeth had a specific axe to grind with Sarah -- she was the object of Lucky Spencer's affections, and Elizabeth was trying to turn the boy's head in her own direction.
Elizabeth was raped on the night of the school Valentine's Day dance. Lucky became a pillar of support for Elizabeth in her time of need. After Lucky told Elizabeth that Luke had once raped Laura, the bond between them became stronger.
Emily Quartermaine turned to Elizabeth, Lucky and Nikolas for help when someone started blackmailing her with altered photos in which Emily appeared to be nude. In the process, the friendship between Elizabeth and Emily deepened and Lucky and Nikolas put aside their differences. As it turned out, a photographer named Tom was the person blackmailing Emily. When Elizabeth and Emily realized this, Tom held them at gunpoint and locked then in the darkroom at the photography studio. In the process, Tom also admitted that he had been the person who had raped Elizabeth in the park. Lucky and Nikolas rescued Emily and Elizabeth and Tom was arrested. Elizabeth and Lucky were more in love then ever and agreed to go steady.
Elizabeth and Lucky set their sights on a future together and Elizabeth was surprised when Lucky suggested she attend an art school in New York City. Elizabeth was hesitant, until Lucky promised that he would go to New York with her. Lucky surprised Elizabeth when he bought her a new dress and hinted at a big Valentine's Day surprise. When Valentine's Day arrived, Lucky took Elizabeth to a romantic empty church and they vowed to love each other forever
Elizabeth was devastated when she thought Lucky had been killed in the fire. In time, Elizabeth allowed herself to be comforted by Emily and Nikolas, but wondered how she would continue to live without Lucky.
Elizabeth found herself overcome with grief for Lucky and needed to take action to try and reclaim her life. One night, Elizabeth went to Jake's looking for trouble and she found it in the form of a male patron who wouldn't take no for an answer. Jason came to Liz's rescue and she ended up confiding her troubles to him. Jason also found it easy to talk to Elizabeth and both were comfortable with their easy rapport.
Elizabeth came to Jason's aid after he was shot by Moreno and took Jason to her studio. Jason refused to let Elizabeth contact either the police or Sonny, but Elizabeth took matters into her own hands and arranged for Bobbie to treat Jason's wound. Elizabeth convinced Jason to stay at her studio with her and he eventually made a full recovery. In the process, Elizabeth and Jason became very close friends. Elizabeth almost fell victim to Sorel's violence after a bomb was placed in her studio. Jason rescued Elizabeth as Roy defused the bomb, but Jason realized his friendship with Elizabeth was placing her in danger. Soon thereafter, Elizabeth was crushed when Jason left Port Charles.
Elizabeth had come to grips with the pain over losing Lucky and was shocked when Nikolas told her that Lucky was actually alive. With Laura's blessing, Elizabeth and Nikolas set off for New York City to search for Lucky. Lucky saw Elizabeth and Nikolas in New York City, but didn't make his presence known. At the end of April, Elizabeth came face to face with Lucky for the first time back in Port Charles.
Elizabeth was overjoyed when she saw Lucky, but he wasn't the same person he was before the fire. Every time Elizabeth reached out to Lucky, he would push her away and claim that things had changed. Elizabeth still felt in her heart that Lucky still loved her and was baffled by his behavior. Elizabeth and Lucky even shared a kiss at the boxcar, until Lucky suddenly pulled away again. Elizabeth was later stunned when Lucky suggested that she and Nikolas should become a couple.
Liz, Lucky and Nikolas teamed up over the summer and came to Emily's rescue when she was blackmailed. Elizabeth and Lucky were able to connect on several occasions but Lucky would always end up pushing Elizabeth away again. By the end of the summer, Lucky realized something was wrong with his mind, but still didn't know that Helena had brainwashed him, A short time later, Elizabeth witnessed Helena using her trigger phrase on Lucky and realized he was under her spell. Lucky then started seeing Kevin Collins in an effort to erase the hold Helena had over him.
With Lucky seemingly out from under Helena's spell, he and Elizabeth were free to express their real feelings for one another. Lucky told Elizabeth that he loved her.
Elizabeth and Lucky started to rebuild their relationship. Elizabeth tried her best to keep Lucky happy including taking a job as the Face of Deception even though it brought up bad memories of her rape and was the last thing she wanted to do. Elizabeth needed someone to turn to, since she couldn't confide her true feelings to Lucky. Fortunately Jason returned to Port Charles after learning Sorel and Carlos had joined forces to eliminate Sonny permanently. Elizabeth was thrilled to see Jason back in town and he asked if he could hide out at her studio as he needed to keep his return a secret. Jason also told Elizabeth that she couldn't tell Lucky that he was back in town. Elizabeth was torn about lying to Lucky, but agreed to help Jason and keep his secret. Jason and Elizabeth spent his last stay in Port Charles fighting their feelings for each other, unfortunately a bomb delivered to Sonny's home took Jason out of town before anything was truly resolved.
Jason then left Port Charles again but returned in January 2001 when he learned that Sorel and Carlos had joined forces to eliminate Sonny permanently. Elizabeth was thrilled to see Jason back in town and he asked if he could hide out at her studio as he needed to keep his return a secret.

Elizabeth reconnected with Lucky but Helena reared her head again. Under her control Lucky began to push Elizabeth away. Nikolas and Elizabeth plotted to beat Helena at her own game, unfortunately it included Nikolas pretending to return to Helena's side. To prove his devotion to Helena, he asked her to remove any memories Lucky had of loving Elizabeth. Then Helena made a counter offer, asking Nikolas to kill Elizabeth. Determined to help Lucky, Elizabeth agreed to the a dangerous plan to fake her death. Elizabeth and Nikolas were able to outsmart Helena but the damage they did to Lucky's brain would never be fully repaired.
Elizabeth tried to help Lucky recover his memories of their love but nothing worked. After months of faking his feelings Elizabeth, decided she deserved better and declared her independence.
.: Jason's History
A lot of people in Port Charles would say that Jason Quartermaine died the day he was involved in the car accident that left him with brain damage. Others know better. He may not act the same or dress the same, but deep down, he loves the same.
In 1991, Jason came home from boarding school and quickly learned to contend with his big half-brother, A.J., by cutting him a lot of slack. A year later, Jason found a kindred spirit in fellow high school junior Karen Wexler, whose mother, Rhonda, was, like A.J., an alcoholic. So preoccupied with Karen was Jason, in fact, that he completely ignored underclassman Robin Scorpio, who harbored a big crush on him. He had more important things to worry about - like Karen's obvious chemistry with her Kelly's co-worker, Jagger Cates. Even though Karen agreed to go steady with Jason and even though they were crowned the king and queen of the Valentine's Day dance, she couldn't deny her attraction to Jagger, and that very night, she left the dance with him, breaking Jason's heart.
By 1995, Jason had found new love with pert Keesha Ward. On spring break, the couple didn't head to the beach but to Paris, where they admitted that they both were virgins. They didn't come home that way.
A year later, a single event changed the course of Jason's life - and in fact, Jason himself - forever. Intent on stopping A.J. from driving drunk, Jason got into a car with his brother. The accident that followed left Jason with permanent brain damage and no memory whatsoever of his family or of Keesha.
Jason couldn't stand the way
people looked at him after the accident, always hoping to see some glint of
recognition in his eyes. He pushed both his relatives and Keesha away, went to
work for mobster Sonny Corinthos and changed his name to Jason Morgan. His
birthday, he would declare, wasn't the day he was born but the day of the
accident.The one person who was able to get through to Jason was his old high school classmate, Robin. She was patient with him and had no expectations. She just accepted him for who he was - not for who he used to be. What began as a friendship turned into a deep and abiding love.
But there was a complication: All the while Jason was falling for Robin, he was sleeping with scheming Carly Roberts. When he ended their affair, she threatened to blab to Robin. But Carly was all talk; she was just hurt that Jason didn't want her.
Because of Robin's HIV-positive status, when she and Jason consummated their love, they had to do so very carefully. Beforehand, they spoke frankly about their fears and their desire, and although their lovemaking may not have been the same as other couples', it was just as intense and certainly more meaningful. Jason and Robin's romance was threatened when Carly's manipulations ripped them apart.
Jason became a father unexpectedly when Carly broke up with Tony and claimed that Jason was the father of her child. Carly claimed that she had been having an affair with Jason and he went along with Carly's lie. Carly told Jason the truth about Bobbie being her mother and her night of passion with AJ and how AJ could be the father of the baby.
After Carly gave birth to her son, Jason took the child into his care when she left town suffering from post-partum depression. Even though Tony's dream of becoming a father came to an end when the paternity test proved that he was not the father of Carly's baby, Tony swore to get even with Jason and Carly.
AJ incorrectly concluded from the test results that Jason was the baby's father. However, that did not stop Edward, Alan, AJ and Tony try to take Carly's baby from Jason when he brought him to the Quartermaine mansion for Emily's birthday. Their plan failed miserably and the family lost both Jason and Michael for good. Justus became disgusted with the Quartermaines and ELQ life and agreed to be Jason's legal counsel.
Jason and Robin were back together and Jason wanted to guarantee that Robin and Michael would always be safe. To that end, Jason met with his rival, Moreno, and announced his resignation from the organization. Jason went to work as a mechanic and he and Robin moved into Brenda's vacant cottage with Michael.
Robin and Jason were very much in love. One day, Jason returned to the garage and was shocked to find AJ there alone with Michael. Jason was furious and couldn't accept the fact that Robin had no choice but to leave Michael with AJ. Jason felt betrayed and a rift developed between him and Robin. Jason and Robin quickly reconciled, but Robin was concerned over Jason's deep attachment to Michael. Robin also continued to worry about what the future would hold once Carly was released from Ferncliff and hated the fact that her and Jason's lives revolved around Carly.
Jason proved to Carly that he could still make things happen even after leaving the organization when he arranged for her release from Ferncliff. Carly moved into the cottage with Jason, Michael and Robin and secretly planned on a future of her own with Jason.
By this time, however, mob violence was starting to rear its ugly head in Port Charles again and Mac was seriously wounded in a shootout at the Outback. Carly urged Jason to return to the organization, but he remained hesitant to do so.
Robin was thrilled when Sonny returned to Port Charles as she hoped he would be able to help her with Carly, who continued to use Michael to manipulate Jason. Robin reached her breaking point when Jason announced that he was going to move into the brownstone with Carly and Michael in order to solve everyone's problems. Robin was stunned by Jason's "solution" and they broke up. Thinking she was protecting Jason from future pain at the hands of Carly, Robin did the unthinkable. Robin went to AJ and told him the truth - AJ, not Jason, was Michael's biological father. Jason was furious over Robin's betrayal and made it clear he would never forgive her.
AJ shocked the Quartermaines with the news about Michael and battle lines were quickly drawn. Jason assured Carly that no one would take Michael away from him and they prepared to do battle with the Quartermaines.
Jason and Carly planned to leave Port Charles and go on the run with Michael. Jason left town with Michael and Carly planned on joining them later. Carly, however, changed her mind and didn't rendezvous with Jason as planned. Instead, Carly went to the Quartermaine mansion and said that Jason had kidnapped Michael. Carly started spinning a tale of lies and was able to convince the Quartermaines that she was on their side. Carly even moved into the mansion!
Sonny was furious over what Carly had done to Jason and he told Jason about Carly's betrayal. Sonny was then incredulous when Jason defended Carly and decided to return to Port Charles with Michael. Alone with Jason, Carly explained herself and told Jason of her latest plan. Carly planned on winning AJ over to her side and then marrying him. Carly explained that she would then divorce AJ and return to Jason with Michael. Jason didn't think Carly's plan would work, but he went along with it anyway. Alexis agreed to represent Jason in his custody battle against the Quartermaines.
Sonny and Jason were devastated to learn that their coffee warehouse had burned to the ground and they suspected Moreno was behind the fire. Jason then received even more bad news when he was forced to take Michael to the Quartermaine mansion to live. Jason also lost visitation rights to Michael.
After teaming up to prove that Hannah Scott was actually an undercover agent for the FBI, Jason and Carly grew closer while watching the FBI raid Moreno's warehouse. Soon thereafter, Jason and Carly shared a kiss and Carly was certain she and Jason could have a future together. A short time later, Carly misinterpreted a close moment between Jason and Liz. Carly turned to Sonny and their mutual pain and anger lead to an outburst of passion and they made love. At this same time, Jason filled in for Sonny at a meeting with Moreno and ended up getting shot.
After being shot by Moreno, Jason returned to Sonny's penthouse and was stunned to discover that Carly and Sonny had slept together. Jason turned his back on Sonny and Carly and collapsed outside in the snow. Liz came to Jason's aid and took him to her studio. Jason refused to let Liz contact either the police or Sonny, but Liz took matters into her own hands and arranged for Bobbie to treat Jason's wound. Liz convinced Jason to stay at her studio with her and he eventually made a full recovery. In the process, Liz and Jason became very close friends.
Carly was devastated by Jason's rejection, but was determined to make him love her again. Carly was also determined to keep custody of Michael and end her marriage to AJ, but AJ made it clear that neither Carly nor Michael would be going anywhere. Fearing for her safety, Jason distanced himself from Liz. A short time later, Jason said goodbye to Sonny, Emily, Monica and Lila and headed out of town.
Although Jason didn't return to Port Charles, he did come to Carly's rescue once again. Jason phoned Sonny and told him that AJ had been responsible for hiring an arsonist to burn down their coffee warehouse. Armed with this information, Sonny forced AJ to relinquish all rights to Michael and give Carly a divorce.
Several months later, Jason returned to Port Charles.Jason offered Sonny an alternative to marrying Carly and said he would take her and Michael out of the country. Jason admitted to Sonny that he only loved Carly as a friend, but said he would do whatever Sonny wanted. Carly, who truly did have feelings for Sonny, realized she couldn't run away with Jason. Carly then agreed to marry Sonny, who promised they would try to make a happy home together. The Justice of the Peace arrived at Sonny's penthouse, but Carly got a case of cold feet. Jason spoke to Carly but Sonny misinterpreted their conversation and thought Carly still loved Jason. Carly and Sonny were then married as planned and Sonny was thrown when Jason explained that Sonny was the man Carly loved.
During this time, Emily had been kidnapped by Zander but she soon realized he was just another one of Sorel's victims and went from being his hostage to being his friend. Jason and Lucky tracked Emily and Zander down and were prepared to rescue Emily and turn Zander over to the cops. Jason and Lucky were then shocked when Emily begged them to let Zander escape. Jason and Lucky did as Emily asked and Zander took off for Canada. Jason brought Emily home, much to the delight of the Quartermaines.
Jason then left Port Charles again but returned in January 2001 when he learned that Sorel and Carlos had joined forces to eliminate Sonny permanently. Liz was thrilled to see Jason back in town and he asked if he could hide out at her studio as he needed to keep his return a secret. Jason also told Liz that she couldn't tell Lucky that he was back in town. Liz was torn about lying to Lucky, but agreed to help Jason and keep his secret.
