Jason dated beautiful Karen Wexler in 1992, but she had eyes only for bad boy Jagger Cates. In 1995, Jason made love for the first time with fellow virgin Keesha Ward. Following a terrible car accident with his drunken brother, A.J., at the wheel, Jason was left with brain damage - and no memory of his family. In 1996, the new Jason - Jason Morgan - began a sexual relationship with Carly Roberts but fell deeply in love with Robin Scorpio. In 1997 Jason took over Sonny Corinthos's empire when Sonny left Brenda at the altar. Jason went along with Carly's lie to hide the truth that his brother AJ was the father of her child. In 1998 Jason had the baby christened and named him "Michael" after Sonny. Jason rescued Robin and Michael after Tony kidnapped them. 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 same 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. When Elizabeth was forced to choose between Lucky and Jason, she chose to be with Lucky. Jason soon left town again to hide out from mobster Sorel. When Jason came back to Port Charles he was given an order by Sonny to watch over his half sister Courtney Matthews. Courtney was married to AJ and working as a stripper to pay back damage AJ had done to the club. Courtney found herself being stalked and Jason promised to protect her. Courtney and Jason found themselves closer than ever when it was discovered that AJ was Courtney's stalker.Courtney and Jason could not deny that they were falling in love. But they would not tell Sonny because they knew he would not approve. Meanwhile Jason was also protecting Brenda Barrett who was a suspect in the murder of Luis Alcazar. Jason soon married Brenda to keep them from being forced to testify against each other. Eventually Brenda and Jason annulled their marriage, allowing Courtney and Jason to get engaged. When Sonny found out Jason and Courtney were involved in a relationship, he was less than thrilled for his sister to be marrying into the mob life. Finally Sonny was forced to accept their relationship and Jason and Courtney went ahead and planned for their wedding. But their wedding was unable to avoid problems. A pregnant Carly was kidnapped before the ceremony causing the wedding to be postponed while they all searched for Carly. It turned out that Ric Lansing had taken Carly hoping to steal her baby when it was born. Sonny and Carly's son Michael told Jason he saw Ric take Carly. But before they could rescue Carly, she was kidnapped again by Lorenzo Alcazar. Jason, Sonny, and Ric went to South America to rescue Carly. Right before Jason left to go, Courtney found out she was pregnant. But she didn't want to tell him because he had already expressed his doubt about bringing a child into such a dangerous life. Unbeknownst to Jason, Courtney decided to follow them down to South America to help them rescue Carly. But she got herself into trouble when Alcazar found her on his ship and demanded Sonny and Jason trade her for Carly. Courtney decided to take matters into her own hands and jumped over board to escape Alcazar. When she got to land safely, she was told she had lost her baby. When she and Jason got back to Port Charles, he saw that something was bothering her. She finally confessed she had been pregnant and had not told him. Feeling guilty with nowhere else to turn, she sought comfort in pain killers. While Courtney was under the influence of drugs, she ran down Elizabeth Webber with her car. At first she did not remember the incident, but eventually it came back to her and Jason convinced her to turn herself in. Jason and Courtney found their way to each other and exchanged vows in France with Carly and Sonny by their side. But it was not soon after Carly was accidentally shot by Sonny that Courtney realized the extent of danger she would be forced to deal with by being married to Jason. To keep the children safe while Carly was recovering, Courtney took Michael and Morgan to live in the country for awhile. There they met Brian, a policeman who helped them adjust to staying in the country. Jason was suspicious of Brian and did not trust his motives with Courtney especially when he took a job at the Port Charles Police Department. Carly's feelings for Alcazar grew after she came out of her coma. When she checked herself into a mental hospital, she stabbed Jason with a hallucinogenic drug that she had been administered. Still under the influence of the drug, he found himself at Courtney's loft where his true feelings came out. Unfortunately for Courtney, when he came out of the drug, he didn't remember any of it. Courtney shot Brian when he and Jason got into a gunfight. Courtney wanted to turn herself in, but Jason insisted on keeping it a secret. During the Port Charles Hotel fire, Courtney and Jason shared a romantic moment, but it was short lived when they survived and Jason was arrested for Brian's shooting. He was handcuffed to a railing, and left to die until Nikolas found him. Jason felt betrayed by Courtney when she purchased property on the docks with money she inherited and would not allow Jason and Sonny to use it for illegal activity. Their relationship got worse when Courtney knocked Jason unconscious to keep him from killing Alcazar. They finalized their divorce. When Jason found out Sam McCall was pregnant with Sonny's child, he offered to claim the child as his own to protect Sonny and his family. In the beginning of her pregnancy, Jason talked Sam out of having an abortion. He promised her he would raise that child as it's own. What he didn't count on was developing real feelings for Sam, his best friend's mistress. While developing a relationship with Sam, Jason is framed for the shooting of Carly's father, John Durant. Sam promises to stand by her man no matter what. Evidence reveals that Jason wasn't the shooter and he is freed. Jason has time to take care of Sam during her pregnancy. Unfortunately Sam's pregnancy ends unexpectedly, but her unborn baby saves another one of Sonny's children, Kristina. Kristina was diagnosed with aplastic anemia and Sam's child was the only donor match. Her stem cells saved Kristina. As Sam deals with the lose of her child, she becomes closer to Jason. He asks her several times to move in with him and when she does, their relationship grew stronger. Jason and Sam attend Emily and Nikolas's wedding. Sam drinks a little too much and shares a kiss with Jason. Durant is determined to drive Sonny out of Carly's life. Durant has Sonny and Jason arrested on RICO charges, but thanks to a fire in Ric's apartment, the damaging evidence is thought to be destroyed. It becomes clear that Alexis has stolen the evidence and plans on using it to blackmail Sonny into giving her full custody of Kristina. At the custody trial for Kristina, Sonny tries to make peace with Alexis, but she will have no part in that. Much to Alexis' chagrin, Ric's cross examination makes Sonny out to be the favorable parent for Kristina. When Durant comes forward and admits the damaging evidence was obtained illegally, the charges against Sonny and Jason are dropped. Carly thanks her father but cuts all ties to him. Betrayal is one thing she can't forgive After a bumpy start, Sam and Jason are again living together. They become foster parents of sorts by agreeing to care for a baby that Bridget, one of Courtney's foundation kids, has given them. Jason isn't so sure at first but then supports Sam and the baby. Jason even proposes to Sam. He loves her and wants to be with her. Sam happily accepts. Bridget decides she wants her baby back. To avoid a serious court battle, Jason decides it would be best for baby Hope to be raised by Bridget and her grandmother. Sam tearfully returns Hope to Bridget, but makes it clear to Jason she will never forgive him for this. Sam spins out of control as it looks like she has kidnapped Kristina. But when it comes out that Faith has not only kidnapped Kristina, but Michael and Morgan as well, Jason and Sam team up to find the kids. Their investigation takes them to Louisiana where after a shootout with Faith, they find Kristina and Morgan. Michael is still missing. Jason and Sam start looking into Faith's activities and find out she had something going in the Caribbean. But before they can go any further, Faith is shot and killed. Jason and Sonny track down the sniper and find a Polaroid of Michael, dead. Sonny's grief over Michael's death leads to a huge mob hit that Jason isn't suppose to be anywhere near. When he realizes that Courtney will be in the line of fire, he has to get to her, but it's too late. Although Courtney is okay, someone saw Jason at the hit. Durant is determined to use this to destroy Sonny. The witness ultimately confesses but FBI agent Reese Marshall decides to give the evidence to Sonny. Sonny makes it clear to Jason that he now trusts Reese. Jason refuses to believe that Michael is really dead. He continues to search for clues and with the help of Sam, they figure out that Michael is indeed alive. They get a lead from Rachel that takes them to the very much alive AJ Quartermaine's Bahamian home. They just miss AJ and Michael. Jason and Sam rush back to Port Charles (after a brief stop in Sienna, Italy) and discover that AJ is in town with Michael. With Skye's help, they track AJ down. Jason and AJ engage in a fight that sent them both over the staircase railings at the Quartermaine estate. Michael has witnessed so much that he becomes withdrawn but Sam is able to reach out to him. When the truth about AJ's murder came out, Sam sets up therapy session for Michael with Dr. Thomas, a local psychiatrist. Jason is leery of the idea at first, but then sees that maybe professional help is what Michael really needs. Jason continues to deal with Carly and her antics. She is positive that Reese is up to no good, and does stupid things like breaking into her apartment to prove it. Jason continually has to monitor Carly and bail her out of her own messes. Jason and Sam are determined now more than ever to start a family but the doctor warns Sam that it would be another six months before she is ready to conceive. Jason loves Sam more than anything and will wait until she's ready. They continue to focus on Michael's mental health and helping him deal with his trauma. Sonny gets a call from Reese that someone knocked out her out at the penthouse. Sonny figures out it was Carly and is ready to deal with her. Jason tries to explain that there may be something to Carly's suspicions about Reese. Sonny wants Jason to back off Reese or find another employer. A hurricane hits Port Charles. Jason, Sam, Michael and Morgan are staying at Sonny's house when Dr. Thomas shows up. He's dropping off Michael school bag, but then ends up having to stay because of the storm.
