For those watching the November 7 episode of ABC’s General Hospital, a mystery man appeared hovering around the nurses and doctors hub, while Felicia (Kristina Wagner) was on the phone going on and on about James (Gary James Fuller), Maxie (Kirsten Storms), Cody (Josh Kelly) etc.

At first, viewers were thrown, believing something very intriguing was up; that either the mystery man had prosthetics and was actually Cesar Faison or even Peter August, and it seemed like he was up to something very shady.

In the interlude, the mysterious man wearing an employee badge, handed Felicia a folder, and then demonstrated he had quick reflexes by grabbing her pencil when it rolled off the desk. Before he headed to the elevator, he gave Felicia back her pencil. However, Felicia was thrown and told him to wait! But instead, the guy ignored her and got inside.

Some viewers realized the guy was actor Peter Stormare. The longtime motion picture and television veteran, also plays the role of “The Replacer” in the video game series Call of Duty. As it turns out, Stormare’s GH appearance was actually sponsored by the video game and was tied to the upcoming release, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 dropping next week on November 14.

The scene between Kristina Wagner and Peter Stormare didn’t just end when the mystery man got into the elevator at GH, not at all! Shortly after today’s airing, an extended scene showed up on the official GH Instagram account. In the set-up, when Felicia tells the mystery guy that the insurance file he gave her is for one of Stella Henry’s (Vernee Watson) patients, he tells her that Stella is home today playing Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and “I’m, The Replacer,” which is a play of his video game role. Later, the man continues to get soaked  by water thrown at him by Felicia.

You may recognize the Swedish-born, Stormare from his 1996 role in the Oscar nominated film Fargo, 1998’s The Big Lebowski, 2000′s Dancer in the Dark, and 2002’s Minority Report. On TV, Peter has appeared on: American Gods, Longmire and The Blacklist to name but a few.

Now below, check out the sponsored post from Call of Duty: Black Ops 7  in an extra scene between Peter “the mystery man” Stormare, and Kristina “Felicia” Wagner. You will notice that two of GH’s younger set, Giovanni Mazza (Gio) and Asher Antonyzyn (Danny) were very excited in the Instagram post comment thread when they saw the synergy used between GH and the video game!

So, were you confused and intrigued when a suspicious mystery man showed up at GH? Did you recognize him as Peter Stormare right away? Did you think he was wearing a prosthetic mask as we have seen Faison pull off numerous times, especially given the fact Stormare and Anders Hove are both of Danish-descent?

So thank you for identifying who the actor is and where we know him from. But how about a hint as to who he is within the context of a GH storyline? I like the actor. He’s damn good but I would like to have some semblance as to what role he will be playing.

It was just a cameo for product placement for Call of Duty

I haven’t seen the episode yet, but the video extra looks like campy fun, lol! Hope they enjoyed doing the bit. The character could have been used as an appropriate Faison reveal in the show, too.

The video adds a bit of context. The scenes on air were a bit confusing.

Here’s Felicia showing up midway through the episode. Nobody else at the nurse’s station or hub. An ominous looking individual stalking. Given her past with Faison, it wouldn’t be a stretch to connect those dots.

Then with the file transfer, I thought maybe it was background on what Portia was doing the night Drew was shot – as Felicia’s now investigating the case.

Weird filler, but if it brings in $ for the show, not an issue.

I instantly thought, He looks like the replacer on Black Ops game, but I shrugged it off until I was thinking about The week on GH and the thought of that guy popped up with the possible Faison storyline. wondering if this will continue, my interest is peaked now.

I’ve never been a fan of stunt casting.

Really GH, that is so far from the soap sogga, I wished yal would lv some that hv bn killed off or died lv them off!!! Sazon Fasion is one of them!!! Drew Cain Matheson is another send him bk to Hallmark with his crazy self!!! I’m tired of his bullying and threats, he is just what some of them r in Washington is we dont nd to b reminded we got real life things go n on right here in usa , writers pls get him off!!!

Published

Jason and Britt

On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.

Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.

However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON

Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.

He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.

Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”

General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”

So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.

If Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) new therapist on General Hospital looks familiar to you, it’s because actress Kearran Giovanni, who plays Dr. Nichols, previously played a doctor on One Life to Live!.

Viewers tuning-in to the Thursday, September 10 episode of GH got their first look at Dr. Nichols who has been brought in to help Anna recover from her PTSD and trauma following the reveal that she has been suffering from a break in reality since before being put in mental health facility in France, after being gaslighted by Cullum and company earlier in the year.

One Life to Live fans will recall that Kearran Giovanni played Dr. Vivian Wright in 2009, and it was then she first worked with current General Hospital EP, Frank Valentini, who at the time was at the helm in Llanview.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Anna Breaks Down in Front of Jason and Britt After Shots Are Fired

Published

Finola Hughes

The Wednesday, September 9 episode of General Hospital featured top-notch performances by Finola Hughes and Steve Burton, as Anna holds Jason and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) at gunpoint on Mount Emerson.

Anna is not in her right mind as hallucinations of Peter (Wes Ramsey) overtake her, egging her on to shoot and kill Britt. Jason begs Anna to put down the gun, but it’s clear Anna is speaking to someone who is not there, but in a direction that is just past Britt.

Suddenly, Anna screams at Britt, “You’re just like your father!” Anna also tells Britt that she knew Britt was aware that she was locked up on Spoon Island and did nothing to save her. Britt turns to Jason and tells him she had no idea Anna was on the Island, “until Cullum showed up in Port Charles.” That declaration gave Jason pause.

“PETER” TAKES A BULLET

Next, Anna is overcome with angst, filled with tears and screams out, “I won’t let you beat me!” She fires the gun where the imaginary Peter was standing, as Britt screams and Jason dove to cover her. Now completely shaken, Jason took the weapon from Anna and ordered Britt to leave the scene as Anna collapsed in Jason’s arms.

Jason was so concerned for Anna. She reveals she’s been seeing visions of Peter August since France. Jason shared his theory with Anna that she was manifesting her worst fears about Faison. However he knows deep down Anna would never have shot Britt. Jason promises to come back and clean up the area, but would take Anna home first.

ANNA ADMITS TO EMMA SHE TRIED TO KILL BRITT

At Anna’s, Jason brings her in the front door as Emma is there. Jason tells Emma (Braedyn Bruner) he would like to return and spend the night. A confused and worried Emma get the full story from her grandmother.

Anna explains she tried to kill Britt and she is not as well as she was pretending to be in France. Cut to: Jason cleaning up the site of Anna’s plot against Britt on Mount Emerson. He moves over and finds bullet casings on the ground and examines one of them.

The story climax also signaled the end of the run for Wes Ramsey, who has been showing up on episodes over the last several months as Anna’s dark side conscience. Now that Anna was able to break the psychological hold visions of “Peter” had on her, it ends this latest return of Ramsey’s.

So, what did you think about the scenes between Anna and Jason? Do you think Jason and Britt’s relationship will come to an end now that seemingly Britt revealed she knew Anna was held captive after Cullum came to town? Glad to know Anna won’t be haunted by visions of Peter August anymore? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
