The power plays in Port Charles often happen quietly—and this week, on Oct 23, the rumble begins to roar.

Drew Cain and Ronnie Bard, two players previously on opposite sides of the board, may now be uniting their chess pieces in a bold attempt to take down Tracy Quartermaine.

According to spoilers, the alignment isn’t symbolic—it’s strategic.

It starts with a discovery: Ronnie Bloom—once perceived as a newcomer toeing polite waters—is revealed to have met Drew.

The handshake was not simply a greeting; it was the opening move of their mutual ambition. Drew, ever tactical, is said to have asked Ronnie what she wanted…and how he could help her get it. In other words: the enemy of my enemy might become my partner.

Meanwhile, Tracy finds herself increasingly isolated in the very mansion she once commanded. Her own family appears to be turning in favor of Ronnie, and whispers suggest that Brook Lynn and Olivia may have drawn lines she’s not crossed yet. The once-untouchable matriarch sees the foundations shifting beneath her.

The stakes are more than ego. This is legacy. For Tracy, the Quartermaine name is everything. For Ronnie, stepping into that legacy has meant battling for respect, recognition—and now perhaps power. For Drew, taking down Tracy could serve as a major bridge in his larger schemes. The alliance, if real, threatens to collapse the baroque world of the Quartermaines from the inside out.

But as with any soap-town coalition, there are risks. Can Ronnie trust Drew’s motives? He’s known for playing many sides. Can Drew rely on Ronnie’s loyalty? Her calm mask hides something sharp. And I ask: will their alliance survive the moment they strike Tracy—or will the spoils prove too big, the egos too naturally conflicting?
