General Hospital wrote Pascal out on the June 4 episode, ending Marc Forget’s run as Sidwell’s butler and one of Port Charles’ more useful villains for now. The character was hauled off to the airfield after helping untangle, then widen, the mess around Sidwell, Sonny, Laura, Lucas and Marco.
That is why viewers looking for Soap Opera Digest updates were paying attention on Wednesday. Pascal had been woven into the show’s blackmail and cover-up machinery from the Five Poppies to Wyndemere, and his exit lands right in the middle of storylines that have been feeding off his loyalties, lies and grudges.
Forget first began playing Pascal in July 2025, when the character arrived at the Five Poppies as a foil for Britt. From there, Pascal became a fixture in the darker corners of the show’s current plots. He held Britt captive, strapped a bomb to her ankle, publicly served as Sidwell’s butler in Port Charles and quietly helped Sidwell and WSB director Ross Cullum in illegal activity. He also helped hide the fallout from Henry Dalton’s shooting, cleaned up the crime scene and even disposed of Dalton’s body by planting it in the trunk of Laura’s car.
Pascal’s final stretch turned on the same instincts that made him dangerous. He nursed intense feelings for Marco while at Wyndemere, lashed out at Lucas because of those feelings and played a role in Cullum learning that Marco and Lucas were conspiring against him. Britt later told Sonny that Pascal had helped cover up Dalton’s murder, and Sonny passed that information on to Laura. The two of them then enlisted Lucas to pressure Pascal into turning on Sidwell, setting up the endgame that played out on June 4.
That endgame came with an offer and a warning. On Pascal’s last episode, Sonny offered to help him flee the country if he flipped on Sidwell, and Pascal responded by giving Lucas the combination to the safe so he could retrieve incriminating photos of Sonny and Laura. Sonny then had one of his men drag Pascal off to the airfield, where he was sent away from Port Charles and out of the current action.
For now, that looks like the end of Pascal’s run, but not necessarily the end of the character. A General Hospital representative said this is the last viewers will see of Pascal for now and that comebacks are always possible in Port Charles. For a show built on reversals, that leaves the door open even as the airfield scene closes this chapter.
