GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason is Taken Into Custody By the WSB, Marco Dies Sending Lucas and Sidwell Reeling
The Wednesday, March 25 episode of General Hospital facilitated the temporary exit of Steve Burton in the role of Jason Morgan, the final exit of Adrian Anchondo as Marco Rios, and left the door open to the continuation of a huge umbrella storyline that has everyone in the know keeping secret the fact that Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) is the person who shot WSB Director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes).
As viewers previously saw, Jason took the fall for the young man and now finds himself in a situation he may never get out of. The episode featured such strong performances by the men, in particular, the aforementioned Burton, plus Van Hansis (Lucas), Carlo Rota (Sidwell), Finn Carr and Asher Antonyzyn (Danny). Here’s what went down!
At Lulu’s (Alexa Havins), she finally is able to get Rocco to explain what happened at the pier. He tells his mother he shot Cullum to protect and save Jason, which is how he injured his hand. Lulu wants to make sure no one saw him. Rocco swears Cullum or Britt knew he was there. Lulu says no one can know about this, and in his tears and through his confession, he promises not to tell a soul. Lulu then offers up some ominous words saying, “she’ll take care of everything.”

ONE LIFE SAVED, ONE LIFE LOST
Back at the intense drama in the operating rooms at GH, Lucas is able to get the bullet out that’s lodged in Cullum’s back. Meanwhile, Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) keep finding more and more stab wounds and problems during Marco’s surgery in their attempt to save him.
After Lucas finishes his surgery on Cullum, he goes to call Marco, but gets his voicemail again. Suddenly, near the hospital elevators, Elizabeth tells Lucas she needs to talk to him and tells him Marco is dead. Lucas is overcome. She takes him to see Marco after explaining he was stabbed multiple times. Lucas says goodbye to his love in an exceptionally sad scene. What Lucas does know yet, is that the man he saved in the OR, killed his boyfriend!

At the PCPD interrogation room, Jason is not talking to Dante (Dominic Zamprogna). Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) shows up as Jason’s lawyer, she talks to him privately and informs him Marco was stabbed on the floor of her law offices. Talk turns to Danny and Jason wants Alexis to be Danny’s legal guardian, which she agrees.. Suddenly, Brennan (Chris McKenna) and a gaggle of WSB agents show up, saying they are taking Jason into custody. Meanwhile, at Carly’s (Laura Wright), Danny is pleading with Carly and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) to help Jason who shot a WSB agent, and its Cullum. They are stunned.
THE WSB THROWS ITS WEIGHT AROUND
Back at the PCPD, Brennan tells Jason that Cullum has pulled through his surgery thus far and the WSB is taking over his case. We learn, Jason is being charged with attempted murder of an agent and it is considered an international incident. The agents tells Dante, Justine (Nazneen Contactor) and Alexis, the WSB supersedes the PCPD and Jason is going into their custody and they shackle Jason and take him out of the police station to a waiting van.
At Wyndemere, Sidwell and Ava (Maura West) are making out, when Chase (Josh Swickard) shows up and informs Sidwell about Marco and if he knew who would want to hurt him. By the time, Jenz gets to the hospital, Dr. Gannon informs him that his son died. Then, Sidwell goes to sit by his Marco’s body, and with anguish, rage and heartbreak, he promises to make Sonny suffer for both his and his mother Natalia’s death.

EVEN MORE ANGUISH
Ava finds Lucas outside of GH, but he doesn’t want to talk about Marco being dead, because then it becomes too real, and he tells his aunt he’s not ready to grieve. As he breaks down, Ava hugs him.
A heartbroken Britt, who is beside herself, gets to the outside of the PCPD just as Jason is being taken away. In a very emotional performance by Kelly Thiebaud, she tells Jason she loves him as she breaks down. Jason tells her he loves her too as he knows this may be the last time they see each other. In the climatic ending, Danny shows up and says goodbye to his dad as he tearfully watches the van carrying his father drive off.

The question becomes will the story progress while Steve Burton is on his hiatus? Will Valentin and Carly help Jason escape off-screen and he becomes a fugitive and we don’t see his whereabouts, or might that happen later when Burton is set to return? The two-time Daytime Emmy winner wrapped filming on February 6, but is slated to be back this summer to pick-up taping all new-episodes.

Now let us know, what did you think about how GH sent Jason off the canvas? What did you think of the performances of the cast? Which moments gutted you the most? Share your thoughts via the comment section.
The writers deserve a lot of credit for crafting an umbrella storyline that makes a lot of sense and appears to be covering all the beats. Having Isaiah be the doctor operating on the son of the man who nearly had him killed while Lucas operates on the man who killed Marco – well thought out!
Prison (or some form of it) as the temporary exit for Jason much better than a fake death or coma. Having the WSB be involved leaves open the opportunity for Jack to be the hero down the line (with Carly eating crow).
Rota, who often overacts, was quite moving in his scenes.
Minor annoyance…
the show really needs another nurse. Elizabeth can’t be the only one. In the operating room, Lucas was talking to an under-5 instead of Felix, Deanna or Amy (who apparently are only asked on for the Nurse’s Ball.)
Have to agree with you OG Steve. The show really needs more nurses. Poor Elizabeth can’t do everything. Bring back Felix, Deanna and Amy. The hospital needs life. If this Amy is anything like the original Amy Vining, beautifully portrayed by the late Shell Kepler, she’ll keep hospital information flowing.
Amy Vining would have had a field day with Portia and her melodrama.
Another superb episode. Everyone did excellent work. I’ve been especially impressed by Asher Antonyzyn and Finn Carr. Both can really bring it when given meaty material. Congratulations to both of them.
My opinion is that Lucas was the weak link in this very well done story.
When he was in the room with the love of his life who had just died, I felt no emotion or real grief.
Honestly? I’m not a big ole cry baby but he had me in tears. His grief was so apparent that it was palpable. But he played it with quiet intensity. Had he shrieked and cried, I’d agree with you. It was the power of an understated performance. In my opinion, Van Hansis played it with perfectly.
with perfection. Sorry.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason and Britt Reach an Impasse; Is This the End of Their Relationship?

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.

Kearran Giovanni Debuts on ‘General Hospital’ as Anna Devane’s New Therapist

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

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.
