Color us surprised when we found out that One Life to Live's Eli was the person responsible for all the dastardly deeds going on these last few months in Llanview. And we thought he was just a nice lawyer who's in love with Blair! Wrong. To recap, here's a list of his crimes:
*He assaulted Ford
*He pushed Marty down the stairs
*He framed Hannah for the above two crimes
*He seemingly killed Kelly's mother, and that mute guy Rodney who was friends with Kelly's mother ...
OK, we can understand framing Hannah -- she's an easy scapegoat and he needs the heat off him. And Rodney (despite being mute) looked like he was going to expose him. But why the rest? Why target seemingly unconnected Marty, Ford, and Kelly's mom?
What are your theories on Eli's motives? Share them below!

Please lose the Mitch Lawrence story line...it's getting ridiculous. I thought Jess came to her senses before going all the way with Ford hmmmmmm. meaning the baby should be Brody's and what happened to using protection??? especially Natalie who acts like she's so street smart. Why couldn't they have made her preggo by her husband that died. They were making out at the drop of a hat and then suddenly she get some from Brodie and John on the same day and Kapow....Lol I just don't like Natalie she really turns me off sometimes from watching OLTL.
I believe Eli is working for Mitch. Ford n James are Mitch's sons . Mitch got Nates mom pregnant. I really wanted Rex to find out Bo was his father and possibly Nates mother may also be Rexs mother? Id also like to see Tea survive. Natalie & Jessicas lifes have been Dysfunctional enuff the way it is. Id like to see Natalie have Johns baby and Jessica have Brodys. Gigi n Rex get married. Starr & James be together. Cole probobly got Hannah pregnant. Bring back the hooker that married Clint. Dorian & Vickers belong together. Eli go to prison an everyone be honest for once.I liked Matthew & Daniella better together.
I believe he is working for Jessica father. Her biological father Mitch. Mitch is mad at John. John came between Mitch and Nat. Blair is Dorian's niece. Blair is also cousin to Kelly and Kelly's mother is also Blairs aunt. I also believe Mitch has some type of connection to Ford his Mother and Brothers. This is whats in my head. You can never tell with the stories.
Personally I don't really care for Eli or his story lines with pushin Marty, I don't like this chick anyway, she's always complaing saying " John will we ever findout what happened to our baby". WHO CARES JOHN WAS CHEATING ON U N DROPPED U AS SOON AS HE FOUND OUT U WEREN'T HAVING HIS KID !!! Plus the 1 who played Marty befor this chick was SOOO much hotter.. Don't really care about Kellys mom neither.. if it isn't obvious enough Eli is gonna be The Ford brothers (Robert, James and Nate) father, come on Im a guy who watches this at nightime when I cant find anything else to watch and I know that.. He isnt really a good Dad tryin2 kill his kids like this though.. Of course its gonna get real dramatic, probably Wedding Day and either Ross will show up n spill his guts about everything OR his own kids are gonna team up and have to kill his stupid a$$ anyway, how yeah and of course Robert and James won't be to excepting of Nate cause he didn't have to deal with this guy growing up, their Mom ran away from those 2 and Eli when she was preggers.. Too easy to tell, let me write a couple story lines.. Poor Hannah 1st being kidnapped by Todd is enough to make u go crazy and now she's tied in with Eli so that he doesn't go after Cole who should be with Hannah, she's way cuter than Starr who looks like a primate of some sort.. But she is the easy scapegoat.. The End
Eli probably has a lot to do with Mitch Lawrence, etc. and is doing what Mitch wanted as far as the Kramer girls go. Eli is probably lying about everything, even being, a brother to Ross. Eli had seemed to be attracted to Tea before. Now of course he wants to marry Blair probably to get back at Todd for something that might have happened in the past between Todd and Eli. I think also that Eli wanted to kill the unborn baby and Marty because he hates John McBain. He doesn't care one way or the other about Marty. He killed Kelly's mom because that's what Mitch wanted. Ford was probably a witness to the murder somehow. Maybe Ford worked at the institution at the time.
So far, that's my take.
I agree with the person who said that the writers are making this up as they go along. I also think that Ross and Eli/Bennett are probably not brothers at all. The show said that Tea had only met Eli late in her dealings with Ross which is odd for a brother. We know Ross is a con too so I think they were working some sort of scheme together. I don't think Ross has anything to do with what is currently going on. Eli looked shocked and scared when Tea told him Ross was alive. I think Eli works for Mitchin a whole other con and Ford works for Eli. I think Eli killed Kelly's mom for Mitch and then pushed Marty to get back at John and distract him off Kelly's case. I think Ford played with Langston's head as part of Mitch's get back at Dorian plan and maybe the same with Eli and Blair. Or Eli may just be using Blair to stay in the know of what's going on with the Cramer women. I think Ford and Eli had a business disagreement and Eli wanted to get rid of him and then framed Hannah because she was an easy target. The same with Todd for Marty's "fall".
I had wondered about a connection to Patrick or if he actually was Patrick too. I think I am more prone to believe the Mitch story line but with soaps you never know!
I knew that James, Bobby and Nate are brothers. I just could sense it. I think that Nate is their half brother if not blood brothers.
I think Eli could turn out to be Spencer Trueman. You know its daytime, and plastic surgery is always out there.
Eli obviously hate Todd and he figured the only way to get rid of him was to blame his dee on Todd to remove him out of the picture. ford found out that he is Bennett so he tried to take him out.
