General Hospital: Leopold Taub’s Body Won’t Be Exhumed — Because His Grave Is Empty


Spoilers for General Hospital hint Years ago, when it was said that she was slain by the WSB as he attempted to elude capture by the police, Leopold Taub (Chip Lucia) had already left Port Charles. But is it possible that Taub was actually hidden away for safekeeping and safeguarded by the WSB for some sinister reason? Nobody anticipated hearing anything about the man again until Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) arrived in town in search of riches.

Suffice it to say Taub doesn’t lend many good memories to the people of Port Charles, but no one has held it against Cody for being his kin. Of course, Mac Scorpio (John J. York) is Cody’s real father, but he doesn’t get to know that. Cody’s pursuit of a lawsuit against the WSB for destroying what was left of his alleged fortune rests on the lie that he is Leopold’s son. Proving that will require another DNA test, this time between Cody and his late dad’s remains. That’s going to become problematic when they can’t be found.

Cody Worries He Won’t Be Able to Pull This Off

Cody panicked when Scott Baldwin (Kim Shriner) mentioned the need for a DNA test as a precaution. He expects the WSB will allege that anyone could come forward claiming to be Leopold’s child and for that reason, Cody has to prove that he has the genetic ties before the lawsuit can move an inch forward. Legally, it’s a pretty solid formality that needs to be addressed. Scott likely expects that Cody will cave to that realization soon but he has no idea that Cody is spinning a web of lies.

GH Spoilers Leak Scott Stuns Everyone

Scott will be shocked to hear that Leopold’s remains aren’t in his coffin. Rather, there will be nothing at all in his place, suggesting nothing was there to begin with. What he thought was going to be a slam dunk case will be anything but. Scott will have to break the news to Cody and everyone else involved that things are about to get much more complicated. If Leopold remains are not in his grave, where are they?

Where is Leopold Taub?

Nobody will know how to interpret this discovery. Everyone has believed Leopold Taub to be a relic of their past for many years, and they are content to leave him there. Now, it appears that they could have to deal with having to reintroduce themselves to the man who caused so much destruction in their beloved town. Is it conceivable that Leopold is still alive and not in his grave? Almost everyone will be troubled by that query. Others will hold out hope that there was a mix-up or that he was buried somewhere else, but it won’t seem likely.
