Love Child Born in Italy, little Robin believed she was an orphan and was
raised by her "grandmother" Filomena. Only a close family friend,
"Luv", was Robin's other constant companion. During the summer of
1985, Robin was secretly kidnapped from her summer camp and delivered to the
doorstep of Police Commissioner Robert Scorpio. He immediately fell in love with
the little tyke and decided that if her relations didn't turn up, then he wanted
to adopt her. An upset Anna returned to Port Charles after finding Robin gone
and was shocked to find her with Robert. She then confessed that Robin was their
child and the trio became embroiled in the Asian Quarter storyline during which
the dastardly Mr. Wu kidnapped both Anna and Robin alternately. After Robin was
recovered and the case solved, her parents explained why she was raised as
Filomena's relation and three men were declared Robin's god-fathers- Sean,
Frisco, and Buzz.
