Storylines[]
He knew that Victor Cassadine and Liesl Obrecht are the evil versions of Damian Spinelli and Ellie Trout because he may know that they're wearing masks of Spinelli and Ellie because the real Spinelli and Ellie were in Portland, but after Victor is dead and Liesl is alive after taking off their masks, James knew that the real Spinelli came back, then the real Ellie afterwards.
After he knew that Patrick Drake and his sister Robin are divorced, he was devastated and therefore, James moves out of Patrick's house and lives somewhere else in Port Charles and he always gets relationship advice from one another in Port Charles, and his new boss Kyle Sloane who he never likes because Sloane took his sister Robin's life away from her while Robin is being held hostage by Helena Cassadine in Paris right where Serena Baldwin is at. The only reason why is his sister Robin hates Sloane is that Robin is trying to reveal that Sloane is acutally Jerry Jacks with a facelift and a new identity to protect his original identity because he came back to Port Charles from Amsterdam. James now lives in Scott Baldwin's old home where he and his daughter Serena lived.
After Sloane was fired because he was like his cousin Maxie's ex-boyfriend Peter Harrell, Jr. (aka Levi Dunkleman), then his new friend Jordan Ashford is appointed to commissioner of the PCPD and James likes it. After Sonny's brother Ric was fired by Mayor Lomax and replaced by Paul Hornsby, James knew what was coming after Paul shot Sonny under Jerry Jacks' orders.
He and his parents go together to find his sister Robin held by Jerry Jacks, Paul Hornsby, Ava Jerome, and Johnny Zacchara at Crichton-Clark (aka General Hospital's rival). On December 22, he and his parents Robert and Anna cornered Jerry Jacks with the help of Corinthos mob family including others like Judge David Walters, Commissioner Jordan Ashford, former district attorney Ric Lansing, General Hospital Head Nurse Mary Wells, and Sonny's son Michael Corinthos on Sonny's behalf because Sonny was hit and disabled by Paul Hornsby under Jerry's orders.
In March 2017, he sensed his sister Robin being kidnapped by Olivia Jerome who was wanting revenge for Faison who was nowhere to be found and is working with Valentin Cassadine who James suspected in his sister Robin's kidnapping. He also found out that Olivia was the prime suspect in the crime that framed his sister's longtime best friend Sonny Corinthos after James arrested Olivia's henchman and Valentin's associate Winston Rudge who bores an uncanny resemblance to Valentin.
In November 2017, James was at an awards ceremony to see Sonny being awarded the Medal of Valor for saving everybody's lives at Drew and Sam's party at the Metro Court Hotel from two of Faison's men by Commissioner Jordan Ashford.
Sometime after Janice Lomax resigned as Mayor of Port Charles, he felt that the city was left unprotected and it was enough for Cesar Faison to come back to Port Charles. He also sensed that his friend Nathan West was Faison's son with Obrecht, and also Jim Harvey of Niagara Equities had collusion with Faison wanting good riddance of Nathan.
One month after the deaths of Nathan West and Faison, the earthquake hits Port Charles and he can't call his sister Robin about the earthquake revealing that the phone lines are dead.
In August 2018; his mother Anna was missing and found out that Michael Carson and Shawn Phillips are getting revenge for former Ferncliff staff members Mary Pat Ingles, Rupert Watson, and Kurt Lasaris. He, his father Robert, Harrison Chase, and Zoe Raleigh have arrested them and took them into custody after rescuing his mother Anna and new friend Hamilton Finn while working alongside the WSB and the New York State Police. After the two were taken into custody, Cassandra Pierce disappears without a trace as she was abducted by an unknown man. Ryan Chamberlain is on the loose as James takes on the case as Cassandra Pierce is nowhere to be found.
In 2019, James believes that he and department have the wrong person like Franco Baldwin who James also suspected him of holding his sister Robin against her will.
On July 1, 2019; James was happy to have his uncle Mac as Acting Commissioner and his father Robert as the District Attorney of Port Charles. James was surprised when Hayden Barnes was back in Port Charles and is Franco's sister-in-law.
On July 19, he received bad news that Dante and Lulu are getting divorced and he started to get worried about Lulu as Hank Archer aka Shiloh who bores a striking resemblance to Nathan West made bail the same day. So, he makes his promise to protect Lulu and her family from Shiloh as he and Lulu grew closer together. He also feared that Jerry Jacks who had escaped from Pentonville Penitentiary would be in Berkley where his sister Robin is currently living in, hiding in Beechers Corners with a new identity to protect his original identity, or have collusion with Shiloh. He has an officer in Berkeley guard Robin and her family and informs it to his father Robert, his uncle Mac, and his sister's longtime best friends Sonny and Jason.
On July 31, he heard that Arthur Cabot had been released from prison and colluded with Shiloh.
On August 9, James was happy that Shiloh is behind bars along with his accomplice Arthur Cabot who had been aiding and abetting Shiloh. He is still worried about his sister Robin.
On August 21, his closest friend Lulu and her husband Dante are divorced.
On September 30, James sees a suspicious woman named Sherri Anderson at the PCPD so he keeps a close eye on her as he thinks that the woman is working with Dawn of Day.
On October 10, James made a decision to start investigating his own brother Peter August and his accomplice Bryce Henderson as he calls his sister Robin to stay put in Berkley with the help of Jason Morgan and his attorney Ric Lansing. He also contacts Peter's half sister Britt.
On December 23, James was stuck at General Hospital during a snowstorm which he stays at where General Hospital Chief of Staff Monica Quartermaine reads to the children there.
James gets a lead on "The Hook" whose gender is revealed to be a female which helps him narrow it down, but not much of a lead on her.
After James found out that "The Hook" is identified as Heather Webber, he knew that Jason would've shot and killed The Hook if Jason were still around. After Heather has been captured, he and his family and friends are relieved that it is over because James predicts that Heather is going to be locked up in prison.
When James found out that Victor Cassadine is dead, he and his family and friends are happy that it's justice after Linc Brown was captured by his friend Dante Falconeri. The True Believers are now defunct knowing the fact they're like Dawn of Day rising from the ashes like a phoenix and also like DVX/EuroTech 2.0 as the True Believers as a worldwide terrorist organization. He and his family and friends can now have peace.
As he and his family and friends are having peace, he saw Hayden Barnes once more and is a blonde via hair color swap with Maxie as he barely recognizes her.
On February 6; James is happy to meet John Cates as well as having his mother Anna being Commissioner again seeing his family together while his sister, niece, and nephew are absent since he always knows Ava and her daughter Avery after the presumed deaths of Spencer Cassadine and Esme Prince at River Seine in Paris.
In March, James is shocked to see Jason Morgan alive.
In July; James knew that if Shawn Butler were still around in Port Charles, he would've fought back against Valentin. James also faced another dilemma, he found out that Ava Jerome began to work with Adrian DeWitt about the recording.Crimes Committed[]
