Who is Mason’s Boss on General Hospital?
General Hospital Spoilers: Male Boss Rewrite Leads to
Shocking Reveal – Mason & Austin Working for Unexpected Villain
General Hospital (GH) spoilers indicate that the show has clearly decided to shift gears and take a
current storyline down a new path. GH fans know Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Grey) and
Austin Gatlin-Holt (Roger Howarth) are working for a mystery boss – one who was previously referred to as “she” and “her.”
However, Mason suddenly began referring to the boss as “he” and “him” instead in the August 14 episode.
It was a huge change that had social media buzzing about the reason for this gender swap, so let’s talk about that for a moment.
The obvious explanation is that there wasn’t a firm plan in place when the show kicked off this storyline.
There might’ve been a vague idea about a female boss and even a few possibilities, but nothing was set in stone.
There were other stories to tell until the show finally got around to the next phase of this one.
Now that this storyline’s heating up and the show’s locking in their final answer, they indeed have a boss in mind – and that boss is definitely a guy now.
Of course, that opens the door to new speculation on who this male mystery boss might be.
One option is Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) if he’s in charge behind the scenes in prison, but his recent behavior didn’t make it seem like he was running the show.
Instead, it seemed more like Cyrus was simply connected to Austin and Mason’s boss in some way – like he knew far more about their family and the whole operation than he was letting on.
However, there’s another boss option to consider based on buzz from a Bold and the Beautiful fan event about Ted King (ex-Lorenzo Alcazar) meeting with GH Executive Producer Frank Valentini.
If the show’s bringing Lorenzo Alcazar back from the grave, he could be the unexpected villain revealed at the end of all this.
That’d be a welcome twist for many fans – and it could set up the revival of Lorenzo’s feud with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) once the drama blows up.
It’s possible another blast-from-the-past character will be exposed as the boss instead, but at least this storyline is finally building toward a big reveal that’ll hopefully be satisfying.

Back in the summer of 2021, Roger Howarth debuted as his third General Hospital character. Well, fourth if you consider his brief time having Drew Cain’s memories implanted in him. The Emmy winner took on the role of Austin Gatlin-Holt, and his background was shrouded in mystery, aside from the fact that he was an apparent woods-loving, carefree hippie doctor from Pautauk, NY. It didn’t take long for him to reveal his last name, along with the fact that he had come to claim his father’s birthright as a Quartermaine and to disclose that as Edward was dying, he began to make amends with his estranged son, Jimmy Lee.

Before long, more twists regarding Austin’s past would come to light. His “cuz” on his mother’s side, Mason Gatlin, came to town and initially was tasked with trying to get him to return to Pautauk and — gulp — “the family.” Austin felt that he had paid his dues and was out, but Mason informed him that one never can fully leave the family. On several occasions, he alluded that their boss was a woman, and she still had big plans for Austin. Mason’s also referred to how twisted she is and that he and Austin learned everything they know from this woman.

After Ava conked her ex-husband Nikolas Cassadine over the head as he became violent and threatening, she hid his supposedly “dead” body in the Cassadine stables with Austin’s help. Unfortunately, before they could later move the stiff, they discovered it was gone. That’s what happens when you leave a body in a closet for a few days!
The unlikely tag team soon found themselves being blackmailed by Mason, who knew what had happened. Now, he has ordered Ava to use her connections to Sonny to find out all she can about his deals with the Pikeman group. Of course, there is also the fact that Mason has Nikolas, alive and on life support, at an undisclosed location. Not even Ava knows her ex is still breathing!
So who is this shady lady calling all the shots? It’s a question viewers have been trying to figure out for months now! Is her interest in Sonny’s territory a clue? Is the taking of Nikolas more than a means to control Ava? Is this devilish woman someone we know… or an entirely new villainess? Scroll through our gallery of suspects below, and be sure to tell us in the comments who you think the big bag boss is!
