General Hospital (GH) spoilers hint that Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) may be proven wrong about being under Jenz Sidwell’s (Carlo Rota) protection.

Now that Marco has become a traitor by stealing Britt Westbourne’s (Kelly Thiebaud) medication doses, he’s in grave danger.

Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) voiced concern for Marco’s safety, but Marco insisted Sidwell wouldn’t physically harm him.

Although Marco acknowledged that Sidwell might cut his son out of his life, he doesn’t think Sidwell would take his revenge any further than that.

Of course, Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) might be a different story, but Marco assured Lucas that he knew Sidwell would protect him.

The fact that Marco is so certain of this feels downright ominous and could be a sign that he’s doomed!

Since Sidwell is such a terrifying wildcard, no one can rule out the possibility of him turning against Marco with tragic results.

Sidwell may not be willing to put Marco in this protective bubble he’s hoping for, which means Marco could be vulnerable to retaliation.

If Sidwell indeed disowns Marco, then Marco essentially won’t be his son anymore.

Could that change whether Sidwell’s willing to wipe Marco off the map or at least let someone else do it for him?

It’s tough to believe Sidwell would get angry enough to kill Marco or support his demise, but it’s a possibility to consider.

On the other hand, it’s possible that Sidwell simply won’t be able to stop whatever Cullum might set in motion.

Assuming Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) isn’t able to take Cullum out, you can bet Cullum’s going to cause problems now that he knows two of Britt’s medicine vials were stolen.

Pascal (Marc Forget) gave Cullum that news and clearly thinks Lucas is the real problem.

Cullum, on the other hand, may think Marco is the true threat since he’s so close to the operation and is obviously the one who had access to the safe.

If Cullum wants Marco gone for good, he might take matters into his own hands.

As powerful as Sidwell is, Cullum is the scarier villain between the two of them.

Cullum might take steps to eliminate Marco, so what happens if Sidwell can’t save him?

Even if Sidwell wants to intervene, there’s no guarantee he’ll be able to with Cullum running the show.

Whatever the case, Marco may have underestimated the price he’ll have to pay for going against Sidwell and Cullum.

General Hospital spoilers say Sidwell’s protection may no longer apply and leave Marco to potentially face a grim fate.
