9832_225	John and Natalie accept the offer of a double wedding. On the day of the wedding, Clint's employee,
9832_226	Vimal, stops the wedding and reveals the paternity switch he did on Jessica's child, and the fact
9832_227	Natalie also had a paternity test done. Natalie then tells John the paternity test for Liam says
9832_228	Brody is the father, and John leaves her, devastated. John initially sleeps with Kelly Cramer (Gina
9832_229	Tognoni) to hurt Natalie, but continues to do so for months. John is shown to be conflicted with
9832_230	his love for Natalie, but being hurt by her betrayal and his love for Liam but not being able to
9832_231	accept he was not the father. Marty is released from the institution, and is intent on getting John
9832_232	back.
9832_233	Marty soon reveals to her psychiatrist she switched Natalie's paternity test. John is Liam's
9832_234	biological father. When Natalie finds out, she tries to tell John, only to be thrown off the roof
9832_235	by Marty. Marty also stabs Kelly, and escapes with Liam. Eventually, Marty leaves town, and Liam is
9832_236	found, and returned to Natalie and Brody. John and Natalie have a conversation about his inability
9832_237	to 'get past' Liam being Brody's even though he wants to. Natalie, believing John can never forgive
9832_238	her, decides to move on with Brody. John realizes he's still in love with Natalie, and breaks up
9832_239	with Kelly. When he goes to tell her, though, he finds out Brody proposed to Natalie, and she
9832_240	accepted. John decides to leave town and heads to Seattle to be with his brother's family. However,
9832_241	at the airport, Natalie shows up and tells John about him being Liam's father, and how Marty had
9832_242	switched the results. Natalie also found out Brody knew, and kept it a secret. Natalie and John go
9832_243	back to her house to be with Liam, only to find him gone. They realized Brody had taken Liam. They
9832_244	tracked Brody down to his family home, and he eventually handed Liam back. Natalie and John tried
9832_245	to talk about their relationship, but kept putting it off. After Natalie is kidnapped by Mitch,
9832_246	John saves her, and they reconcile.
9832_247	"Todd Manning" is actually revealed to be Victor Lord, Jr., Todd's twin brother who had taken his
9832_248	place for eight years. Victor is found dead soon after, and John helps Téa try to find his killer.
9832_249	Initially, evidence points to Tomás Delgado (Ted King), Téa's brother, but both John and Téa figure
9832_250	out the real Todd Manning (Roger Howarth), recently returned, framed Tomás to cover up his crime.
9832_251	John arrests Todd in the finale.
9832_252	2012–13
9832_253	When One Life to Live ended January 13, 2012, John was happily reunited with Natalie, and planning
9832_254	on raising their son together. However, commercials aired that John would be heading to Port
9832_255	Charles General Hospital for a crossover event with Starr Manning, Todd Manning and Blair Manning.
9832_256	It was not clear how his relationship with Natalie and his son would be resolved as they were not
9832_257	announced to be a part of the initial crossover. Viewers soon find out when John arrives in Port
9832_258	Charles, he is still in a relationship with Natalie.
9832_259	John McBain arrives in Port Charles after Blair calls him to inform him Todd has jumped bail to
9832_260	come there. John comes to the courthouse, where Todd is holding a gun on Sonny Corinthos (Maurice
9832_261	Benard), threatening to kill him because he believes Sonny is responsible for the car crash that
9832_262	killed his granddaughter Hope and her father Cole. John arrests Todd and takes him back to Llanview
9832_263	to stand trial for the murder of Victor. He is released, and comes back to Port Charles when Starr
9832_264	is arrested for trying to kill Sonny. John decides to return to Port Charles to take down Sonny,
9832_265	whom he blames for his half-sister Theresa's death years before. John's half sister was a new
9832_266	character created by Ron Carlivati to help facilitate the crossover. The explanation given to the
9832_267	audience why Teresa was never mentioned by Eve, Michael or Shannon McBain on One Life to Live was,
9832_268	John and Thomas McBain were the only family members which knew of her existence. Thomas McBain was
9832_269	shown on One Life to Live as a ghost and in recreations of John's history, but he did not mention
9832_270	Teresa on the show. John goes to see Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), whom John knew while he was with
9832_271	the FBI, and she is able to pull some strings to get him FBI clearance of 40 days to investigate
9832_272	Sonny. John makes it clear to Sonny he wants to take him down because he killed his sister, and
9832_273	Sonny maintains he is not responsible for her death. Sonny blames Joe Scully Jr. (Richard
9832_274	Steinmetz), and is proven to be true. During John's conversations with Anna, Anna warns him his
9832_275	need for revenge could cost him his family.
9832_276	During this time, John meets Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco), the pregnant wife of Sonny's enforcer Jason
9832_277	Morgan (Steve Burton). Sam confides in John about her problems with Jason and her pregnancy and
9832_278	that she was raped by Franco (James Franco). John uses his experience with the paternity debacle he
9832_279	went through with Natalie as a common ground they can relate. After Sam finds out Jason and Franco
9832_280	were twin brothers, John is able to get Sam a DNA sample of Franco from the FBI so she can have a
9832_281	paternity test done on her baby. After it is revealed the baby is Franco's and not Jason's, Jason
9832_282	cannot accept the baby and Sam moves out, at which point she leans on John for support even more.
9832_283	Jason doesn't like Sam spending time with John and is worried he is using her to take him and Sonny
9832_284	down.
9832_285	John helps Sam give birth to her son, and tries to get help but is prevented by Jason's hired
9832_286	thugs. On the day Sam's baby (Danny Morgan) is born, Todd Manning and Heather Webber switch Sam's
9832_287	live baby with Téa Delgado's stillborn son, Victor Lord III. Téa tells John that Todd saved her
9832_288	son's life, and she takes the child home to Llanview, Pennsylvania. On a night when John is
9832_289	depressed about the role he might have played in his sister's death, and Sam is sad about the
9832_290	passing of her baby, John and Sam kiss, but decide they cannot go further. Todd, upset with John
9832_291	about the role Todd believes John played in the destruction of Todd and Blair, mails Natalie a
9832_292	photo of John and Sam kiss at the harbor. John, who had been back to living in Llanview, returns
9832_293	home with dinner to discover Natalie and Liam gone. Clint's driver arrives and delivers a note in
9832_294	Natalie's apparent handwriting telling him she hopes it was worth it referring to his cheating on
9832_295	her. John calls Natalie, and she tells him she's in london. Although John is prepared to follow
9832_296	her so that he can grovel for her forgiveness, he discovers she took his passport with her. John,
9832_297	upset his life is falling apart, returns to Port Charles to confront Todd for destroying his family
9832_298	by sending Natalie the picture. John receives a restraining order from Buchanan enterprises, where
9832_299	Natalie's father owns, supposedly filed by Natalie. Unable to stay in Llanview, John stays in Port
9832_300	Charles and enlists Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn), Sam's mother, to help him see his son again.
9832_301	John hopes once the restraining order is lifted, he and Natalie can reconcile. John gives up on
9832_302	that aspiration, when he gets a letter in Natalie's handwriting from Buchanan Enterprises telling
9832_303	him, she has moved on and is in love with someone else. Meanwhile, Jason approaches John with the
9832_304	suspicion Sam's child is alive, and was switched with Téa's baby. They get the proof, and John
9832_305	helps Sam and Jason reunite with the baby, and also helps Téa realize the truth about her son being
9832_306	stillborn.
9832_307	Jason is shot the night Sam reunites with him, and presumed dead. John tries to help Sam deal with
9832_308	her denial over Jason being dead. Sam tells John that Heather tampered with the paternity test.
9832_309	Jason is her son's biological father. In November, John has been in Port Charles for a few months
9832_310	unemployed, waiting for Alexis to resolve his visitation. Alexis explains to John, his chances of
9832_311	getting to see his son again would improve if he can show he can provide for the child. As a
9832_312	result, John asks Anna, now Commissioner of PCPD, for a job. She hires him as Detective Dante
9832_313	Falconeri's (Dominic Zamprogna) partner. Together, with the help of Anna's ex, Robert Scorpio
9832_314	(Tristan Rogers), they capture Cesar Faison (Anders Hove), a wanted criminal who shares a history
9832_315	with Anna. John reveals to Sam that Faison was the one who shot Jason, helping her realize Jason is
9832_316	dead. The restraining order is later revealed to have been filed by Natalie's father, Clint
9832_317	Buchanan, without her knowledge. Clint felt John was not a worthy partner for his daughter, or
9832_318	father to his grandson, after he cheated on Natalie, while she was taking care of their son.
9832_319	Once, when John is watching Danny, Sam's son, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) sees him, and calls him
9832_320	"Caleb," the king of vampires. Sam comes back, and Lucy calls her "Livvie." Lucy stabs John, and
9832_321	Sam takes him to the hospital. Lucy is declared insane, but later a woman named Alison Barrington
9832_322	(Erin Hershey Presley) shows up, and also calls John "Caleb." Soon after, Alison is found dead, and
9832_323	her son, Rafe Kovich, Jr. (Jimmy Deshler), becomes the primary suspect. At the station, however,
9832_324	Rafe points the finger at John as the killer, and there proves to be evidence to back it up. John
