[edit]

[edit]

Stone and his sister Gina Williams were raised by their older brother Jagger Cates after their parents abandoned them. Jagger wasn't able to take care of them and they became separated and entered the foster parent rut. Stone met Karen Wexler at a party. Someone slipped something into her drink and Stone helped her. Stone did not know that she was dating his older brother Jagger. Karen felt she wasn't good enough for Jagger so she ended their relationship. Stone was living with Sonny Corinthos. Sonny was seeing Karen and got her hooked on drugs. Jagger found his little brother at his girlfriend Krystal's grave site and they began to build a relationship. Jagger became a cop and became engaged to Karen. Jagger saved his brother when he was supposed to drive the get away car to break Frank Smith out of prison. Jagger had a motorcycle accident but recovered and married Karen. Stone started to date Robin Scorpio. The pair fell deeply in love. Mac Scorpio, Robin's uncle, proved to be a big obstacle in their relationship as he did not approve of his niece dating a street kid. He came down with the flu and Robin took care of him. He told her that he had been tested for HIV and they had sex for the first time. They used protection at first, but eventually they stopped; this was a decision that would change Robin's life forever. Stone had the flu for a while and decided to get tested for HIV again. The test came back positive. He did not know how to tell Robin. Stone was shot and his blood got on Robin. He ran away from her. She found him in the same motel where they previously had sex. Stone told Robin that he was HIV positive. Dr. Alan Quartermaine ordered that they both be tested. Stone's test revealed that he now had AIDS. Robin's test came back negative. Alan started Stone on drug therapy. Mac Scorpio, Robin's uncle was furious when he found out, but he cared for Stone and even saved his life during a seizure, and later bonded with the kid. Robin later tested positive for HIV. Towards the end of his life, Stone was cared for by Robin and Sonny Corinthos at Sonny's penthouse. Stone's eyesight started to fail due to CMV retinitis worsened by his illness. Right before he died he was able to focus on Robin and see her for one last time. His last word were, "I see you...Oh, Robin, I see you." Stone was like a brother to Sonny and Sonny took his death very hard. Brenda Barrett took his death hard as well, and the two comforted each other. Sonny, Brenda, and Robin had Stone cremated and threw his ashes over a bridge where he had gone bungee jumping to fulfill one of the wishes on his "bucket list", which he made once he knew he would not live many more months.

Afterlife and legacy

[edit]

In May 1996, Sonny lost his pregnant wife, Lily. He donated her inheritance to General Hospital to open the Stone Cates Memorial AIDS Wing. Sonny later named his son Morgan Stone Corinthos, after Jason Morgan and Stone. Stone's name comes up regularly on the show, unlike most soap opera characters who are quickly forgotten after being killed off. The annual Nurses Ball, ceased in 2001 for some unexplained reason, was always dedicated to Stone and featured his NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt, a robin on a bridge (to commemorate not only his life, but the love he shared with Robin Scorpio) created by Mac Scorpio, at the entrance. Robin tells many characters how she contracted HIV from Stone, and even did this when she discovered her mother Anna Devane was alive on All My Children in 2001. Sometimes, Stone, or a great coincidence, messes with the lights after blackouts whenever Stone's name is mentioned, leaving Sonny and Robin to often wonder if Stone's spirit checks in on them from time to time. In 2008, Jagger returns to Port Charles in General Hospital: Night Shift. He visits Robin and later introduces her to his son, Stone, who later is determined to be autistic. Stone returns as a ghost to his former girlfriend Robin Scorpio on September 28, 2010, when Robin, kidnapped and held captive by Dr. Lisa Niles in an underground hole and urges her to have a positive attitude that she'll be rescued. Stone returns, once again, as a ghost to his former friend Sonny Corinthos on August 1, 2017, when Sonny is attacked by the sick Sam Morgan and left to die in a warehouse.

Creation and development

Conception and writing

Stone Cates was introduced in 1993 as the younger brother of Jagger Cates, an established character whose popularity prompted writers to expand the family's role in storylines, incorporating streetwise youth elements linked to the town's criminal activities. Under Claire Labine, the character served as a to emerging mob figure , portraying two societal outcasts navigating loyalty and vulnerability within dynamics. This development aligned with General Hospital's shift toward "womansense" narratives emphasizing emotional depth and relational complexities amid 1990s urban challenges. The scripts crafted Stone with a hardened exterior concealing emotional fragility, drawing from contemporaneous issues such as drug experimentation and high-risk behaviors that facilitated transmission via unprotected intercourse. Labine's team integrated these traits to advance plots exploring personal consequences of street life, including protective instincts evident in Stone's debut intervention at a involving a drugged peer, without delving into overt moralizing. The arc, conceived as a central progression, aimed to confront the epidemic's realities among young people, marking an early effort to depict transmission through heterosexual needle-sharing and subsequent sexual contact, thereby raising awareness without sensationalism. This approach reflected empirical data on rising adolescent cases in the early , prioritizing causal pathways over stigma.

Casting and portrayal

Michael Sutton was cast as Stone Cates in mid-1993, debuting in the role on July 23, 1993, as a contract actor who remained with the series until 1995. At age 23 and with minimal prior experience in daytime soaps, Sutton was selected to embody the streetwise, troubled youth archetype central to the character, bringing a raw, brooding edge that aligned with the producers' vision for an authentic urban outsider. Sutton's portrayal emphasized the character's hardened facade and underlying emotional complexity, leveraging his fresh perspective to deliver performances that resonated with viewers and critics alike. His on-screen rapport with ensemble leads amplified the role's intensity, fostering scenes of notable dramatic weight despite his novice status in the genre. This approach garnered acclaim, culminating in a 1995 Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series, which underscored how Sutton's interpretation elevated Stone's reception as a pivotal, empathetic figure in the soap's landscape.

The siblings shared a challenging upbringing after their parents died or abandoned the , with Jagger assuming responsibility for raising Stone and Gina as a teenager. Jagger honored his late brother by naming his son Michael Stone Cates II, who appeared as a child character on the spin-off General Hospital: Night Shift. No other immediate family members, such as additional siblings or living parents, are detailed in the series' canon.

Personality and background

Stone Cates, born Michael Cates, was orphaned following the death of his parents and raised initially by his older brother, John "Jagger" Cates, who was himself a teenager at the time. Unable to provide adequate care for Stone and their sister Gina amid the family's instability, Jagger arranged for Stone to relocate to Port Charles, New York, where he came under the guardianship of Sonny Corinthos, a local nightclub owner involved in organized crime. This separation from siblings and absence of parental figures left Stone without stable guidance, fostering a reliance on surrogate relationships for support in a challenging urban environment. The character's backstory reflects the causal consequences of familial abandonment and socioeconomic hardship, positioning Stone as a product of disrupted upbringing rather than inherent . Prior to his formal introduction in June 1993, Stone resided with , engaging in the periphery of ' underworld as a means of survival and affiliation, which underscored the risks of adolescent autonomy without oversight. His early associations highlighted vulnerabilities stemming from limited opportunities and peer influences in 1990s , where petty associations with illicit activities served as adaptive responses to instability. Stone's core traits include pronounced loyalty to those who provided him structure, such as , whom he viewed as familial, and a compassionate evident in protective behaviors toward acquaintances in distress. Portrayed as resilient yet impulsive, he embodied street-smart shaped by against adversity, often denying personal frailties to maintain —a realism drawn from the unromanticized perils of unchecked youthful risk-taking in the absence of . These attributes, grounded in environmental over idealized heroism, oriented his interactions as a cynical yet bond-driven teen navigating in a fractured social landscape.

Storylines

Arrival and early arcs (1993)

Stone Cates, portrayed by Michael Sutton, made his debut on on July 23, 1993, appearing at a social gathering in . There, he intervened to assist Karen Wexler after an unknown individual spiked her drink with ecstasy, demonstrating his protective instincts and quick involvement in local crises. This incident marked Stone's initial entry into the community's interpersonal dynamics, highlighting his streetwise demeanor amid the town's undercurrents of vice and vulnerability. Following the encounter with Wexler, Stone established a close alliance with , a club proprietor entangled in activities, who took Stone under his wing and provided him informal lodging. Stone began assisting Corinthos in rudimentary operations at the Paradise Lounge, a venue linked to stripping and illicit dealings, reflecting his youthful affinity for high-risk environments over structured paths. These early associations exposed Stone to ' waterfront elements, where he navigated minor disputes and opportunistic ventures, underscoring his bravado and reluctance to heed authority figures like . Throughout mid-1993, Stone's arcs emphasized tentative bonds within Corinthos' circle, including flirtatious interactions and low-stakes schemes such as club errands and evading scrutiny from rivals or officials. These episodes portrayed Stone as a restless adolescent estranged from his siblings, drawn to the allure of informal power structures while foreshadowing escalating ties to the criminal milieu, without yet delving into deeper personal commitments. His actions consistently prioritized loyalty to Corinthos, cementing an early mentor-protégé dynamic amid the port's gritty social fabric.

Relationship with Robin Scorpio

Stone Cates' romance with commenced in 1993, characterized by an opposites-attract dynamic where refined, intellectually driven background as the daughter of spy clashed with Cates' gritty, street-hardened persona shaped by his ties to mobster . Despite initial familial opposition, particularly from Scorpio's uncle who deemed Cates unsuitable due to his rough edges and criminal associations, the pair pursued their connection, fostering genuine affection through mutual vulnerability. A pivotal moment occurred when Cates fell ill with the flu, prompting Scorpio to nurse him back to health, which deepened their emotional bond and led to intimate discussions revealing Cates' gradual openness about his aspirations beyond ' underworld. Their relationship progressed amid shared risks inherent to Cates' environment, including brushes with Corinthos' operations that tested Scorpio's loyalty and highlighted the perils of their unprotected encounters—depicted realistically as relying on Cates' recent HIV-negative test results and Scorpio's , without condoms, reflecting empirical transmission pathways later underscored in the narrative. Unlike typical romances that gloss over consequences, Cates and Scorpio's arc portrayed relational harmony alongside tangible health vulnerabilities, with milestones such as their first consummation following Cates' health assurances emphasizing causal realism in intimacy's outcomes. This evolution from tentative attraction to profound partnership, spanning late 1993 into 1994, solidified their status as a before external pressures intensified.

HIV diagnosis and progression

Stone Cates' stemmed from unprotected sexual encounters with a previous girlfriend, , who engaged in intravenous drug use, a high-risk for transmission through shared needles or sexual contact.) In the storyline, Cates had initially tested negative for prior to beginning his relationship with , but subsequent testing after prolonged flu symptoms in early 1995 revealed he was HIV-positive and had progressed to AIDS, characterized by severely weakened immunity and opportunistic . This depiction aligned with 1990s medical understanding, where late often accelerated progression from to AIDS due to untreated depleting cells, leading to symptoms like persistent that Cates exhibited. Upon diagnosis by Dr. Alan Quartermaine, Cates was prescribed antiretroviral drug therapy, reflecting the era's primary treatment with AZT (), the first FDA-approved medication for since 1987, though limited to monotherapy with significant side effects such as and limited viral suppression in advanced cases. Cates experienced phases of denial, initially struggling to disclose his status, which compounded his isolation amid the prevailing stigma and paucity of effective options, as combination therapies like HAART were not available until later in the decade. Hospitalizations ensued for complications including seizures and vision loss, underscoring the physiological toll of untreated or inadequately managed on the and overall immunity. The progression strained Cates' interpersonal dynamics, as he refrained from with Scorpio out of fear of transmission, emphasizing behavioral choices in risk mitigation; however, his prior lapses in highlighted personal in contracting and potentially spreading the virus through casual or uninformed encounters.) This narrative avoided unsubstantiated blame, instead portraying the causal chain from high-risk activities—such as sex with partners involved in drug use—to clinical outcomes, mirroring empirical data on where unprotected intercourse with infected individuals accounted for a significant proportion of heterosexual transmissions in the pre-ART era.

Death and immediate aftermath (1995)

In the General Hospital episode that aired on November 29, 1995, Stone Cates died from AIDS-related complications while hospitalized in . As his eyesight deteriorated due to the disease, Stone asked to position herself by the window, where the light enabled him to focus on her face clearly for the last time; he whispered, "I see you, Robin, I see you," before passing peacefully at age 19. Immediately after his death, Robin, , and fulfilled Stone's prior wishes by cremating his remains and scattering the ashes from a bridge overlooking the city, a that underscored his acceptance of mortality. , who had taken Stone under his wing as a surrogate brother figure since his arrival in , expressed profound devastation, with the loss straining his emotional resolve amid ongoing criminal entanglements. Robin's grief deepened shortly thereafter upon confirming her own HIV-positive status from unprotected exposure to Stone, prompting intense personal turmoil without narrative resolution through improbable medical intervention. The storyline's depiction of unrelenting disease progression aligned with clinical realities of AIDS in the mid-1990s, prioritizing causal fidelity over sentimental evasion.

Legacy and impact

Influence on General Hospital narrative

Stone Cates' storyline catalyzed a pivot in 's narrative toward integrating chronic health conditions into core character arcs, particularly through Robin Scorpio's prolonged management, which intertwined with and romantic subplots without resolution via miracle cures. This approach sustained serialized tension, as Robin's condition informed decisions like her travels and 2000s returns, balancing medical realism with dramatic imperatives. The arc's familial reverberations persisted via Jagger Cates, Stone's brother, whose 2008 return introduced his son, Stone Cates II, explicitly named in tribute to the deceased youth, embedding legacy motifs into subsequent generations. Jagger's 2024 reappearance as FBI agent John Cates further evoked these ties, with references to his son's autism spectrum challenges underscoring inherited vulnerabilities absent contrived redemptions. This reinforced causal continuity, linking early street-level conflicts to modern federal intrigue without resurrecting Stone. Sonny Corinthos' evolution exemplified enforced maturation, as Stone's demise—viewed as a surrogate brother—prompted Sonny's covert funding of treatments and later philanthropic gestures, including a hospital wing dedication post-1996, fostering paternal depth amid mob entanglements. Such developments bridged youth subcultures with organized crime, yielding hybrid plots like mentorships and loyalty tests, while averting soap tropes of undead returns to preserve stakes in survivor trajectories.

Cultural and social significance

The portrayal of Stone Cates' HIV diagnosis and progression to AIDS in General Hospital marked a significant departure in 1990s daytime television, depicting the illness affecting a heterosexual male character primarily through injection drug use-related transmission, thereby countering prevalent misconceptions linking exclusively to . This narrative choice reflected empirical realities of , as Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data from the era documented rising AIDS cases attributed to heterosexual contact and intravenous drug use, with such exposures accounting for increasing proportions of diagnoses beyond male-to-male sexual contact. By illustrating behavioral risks like needle-sharing and subsequent heterosexual transmission, the storyline underscored causal mechanisms of viral spread—blood and bodily fluid exchange—independent of , aligning with foundational virological understanding that transmission hinges on exposure volume and rather than identity. Advocates and media analysts at the time commended the arc for fostering public education on prevention measures, such as use and avoiding shared , which prompted discussions on personal responsibility in risk reduction amid the epidemic's peak. The depiction humanized the disease's community impact, contributing to destigmatization efforts by showing emotional tolls on families and partners without moralistic framing tied to lifestyle judgments. However, critics of formats highlighted how narrative demands for dramatic pacing often sensationalized disease progression, compressing HIV's variable timeline—from infection to symptomatic AIDS, which could span 8–10 years without treatment—into accelerated decline for viewer retention, potentially distorting perceptions of clinical realities like opportunistic infections' onset. This artistic liberty risked overshadowing evidence-based emphases on behavioral interventions as the cornerstone of prevention, given that no medical cure existed in and transmission remained preventable through modifiable actions rather than post-exposure reliance on emerging therapies. In broader societal debates, the storyline exemplified television's dual role in epidemic response: amplifying awareness while inviting scrutiny for blending factual with serialized exaggeration, where plot-driven inevitability could inadvertently downplay long-term survival prospects even pre-antiretroviral advancements. retrospectives, often from outlets with established progressive leanings, tended to emphasize empathetic breakthroughs over rigorous dissection of inaccuracies, reflecting institutional tendencies to prioritize uplift amid crises. Ultimately, Stone's arc advanced causal realism by grounding transmission in verifiable behaviors but illustrated media's limitations in conveying probabilistic risks without the contrivance of fiction.

Reception among audiences and critics

The portrayal of Stone Cates garnered significant praise from audiences for its raw emotional depth, with many viewers describing the 1995 HIV progression and death arcs as profoundly moving and authentic, often citing tears during the episode as a testament to the storyline's impact. Fan recollections emphasized the relatability of the young character's struggle amid the era's AIDS peak, positioning it as a pivotal, heartfelt milestone in history that resonated with teenagers and families alike. This reception contributed to the arc's enduring popularity, evidenced by retrospective discussions marking anniversaries as culturally resonant moments. Critics and industry observers commended the narrative for injecting realism into , highlighting how Stone's storyline—contracted via a prior partner's intravenous drug use and transmitted sexually to —mirrored the heterosexual dimensions of the epidemic while showcasing disease devastation without immediate resolution. Michael Sutton's performance as Stone earned a 1996 Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding in a Drama Series, recognizing his emotive range in conveying vulnerability and decline. The arc was viewed as groundbreaking for soaps, blending romance with education, though some noted formulaic elements like accelerated tragedy for dramatic effect. Counterpoints from detractors included accusations of exploitative , arguing the focus on inevitable victimhood overshadowed causal factors like Stone's street-life associations and risky relationships, potentially glossing personal responsibility in favor of pathos-driven plotting. While praised for emotional authenticity by supporters, these critiques highlighted a perceived prioritization of tear-jerking over balanced , with the rapid deterioration serving narrative convenience amid soaps' sensational tendencies. Despite such views, the storyline's overall reception solidified its legacy as a high-water mark for character-driven impact, sans quantifiable ratings surges tied directly to the arcs.

Actor's career and returns

Michael Sutton's tenure

During this period, Sutton appeared in 27 episodes, portraying Stone's transformation from a hardened street operative tied to Sonny Corinthos's criminal activities to a vulnerable figure confronting diagnosis and decline. His tenure aligned precisely with the character's narrative lifespan, culminating in Stone's death from AIDS-related complications, which afforded the storyline a definitive, unrecasteable resolution that preserved emotional authenticity. Sutton's performance emphasized Stone's initial rogue persona—marked by defiance and loyalty in confrontations—before shifting to raw depictions of denial, isolation, and physical weakening as the progressed. In reflecting on the , Sutton highlighted the nature of embodying a young man with AIDS on , noting the personal challenge of conveying the disease's unrelenting toll without exaggeration. This approach lent credibility to Stone's arc, distinguishing it from more sensationalized soap elements and amplifying the plot's focus on realistic progression from via shared needles to . The authenticity of Sutton's portrayal contributed to the storyline's resonance, as evidenced by its role in elevating General Hospital's handling of HIV/AIDS beyond typical drama to a platform for public education on transmission, stigma, and end-stage suffering. By anchoring Stone's evolution in understated grit rather than overt pathos, Sutton avoided melodrama, allowing the character's relationships—particularly with —to underscore themes of love amid inevitable loss. His exit via the death scene, filmed as Stone's final moments in Sonny's penthouse, marked a pivotal closure that reinforced the narrative's commitment to permanence in portraying the era's AIDS crisis realities.

Guest appearances and revivals

Michael Sutton briefly reprised the role of Stone Cates on September 29, 2010, appearing as a hallucination to while she was trapped in a well by Lisa Niles, urging her to fight for survival and return to her family. This spectral guidance reinforced Stone's enduring narrative role as a anchor for Robin without altering his death from AIDS complications in 1995. Sutton returned again on August 1, 2017, manifesting as a hallucination to Sonny Corinthos, who was injured and confined in a dumpster following a shooting; Stone advised Sonny during this crisis, echoing their original mentor-protégé dynamic. These appearances maintained the finality of Stone's demise, utilizing visions to integrate his influence into ongoing plots rather than resurrecting the character physically. In subsequent years, Stone's presence has been evoked through mentions rather than on-screen returns, preserving narrative integrity amid General Hospital's revival trends. On March 5, 2024, John "Jagger" Cates, Stone's brother, referenced him during conversations tied to the character's FBI arc, highlighting familial echoes without prompting a full revival. Similarly, on August 1, 2025, Felicia Scorpio mentioned Stone in dialogue, linking to broader Cates family lore but avoiding any supernatural or flashback depiction of Sutton's portrayal. Such nods, alongside occasional anniversary reflections like those on the 29th anniversary of his death in November 2024, underscore fan interest while respecting the storyline's closure on AIDS awareness. Sutton has engaged in external discussions reflecting on Stone's legacy, including a November 2021 podcast appearance on Maurice Benard's State of Mind, where he addressed the character's impact without tying to new on-screen content. These efforts, combined with indirect revivals via nephew Stone Cates II's backstory in the General Hospital: Night Shift spin-off, sustain thematic resonance without exploiting the original arcs.
