Longtime fans of General Hospital and anyone with half a heart, who caught today’s episode were most likely in a puddle of tears due to the heart-tugging performances of Steve Burton (Jason) and Jane Elliot (Tracy).

In story, Jason has just informed Tracy that when he went up to talk to Monica at her request, he found her no longer breathing and with no pulse. Monica must have passed away in her sleep. Next, Tracy tells Jason to call 911.

The next moment, Tracy and Jason share an emotional hug just before the paramedics arrive. The sheriff also arrives and tells Tracy how highly regarded Monica was in in Port Charles.

Feeling all of the moments of grief, Jason and Tracy sit down together in the Quartermaine living room, as it should be to remember Monica. It was touching to see GH bring together the two characters who loved Monica and had such history with her, made all the more emotional with Steve Burton, who always felt a special bond with Leslie Charleson, and Jane Elliot, who was one-half of the best bickering duo on daytime.

Tracy recalls how Alan gave the house to Monica and how they always argued about it. Cue the flashback to one of their arguments. Tracy says in the present that she and Monica, always argued but she always respected her.

In perhaps, the most hankie-induing moment, Tracy reminds Jason, how he had such a special relationship with Monica. At first, Monica wanted nothing to do with Jason, since he was the child of Susan Moore and Alan. But things changed one night when he was left all alone as a baby. Cue the flashback to baby Jason in the arms of Monica. Tracy says eventually Monica saw Jason as her son.

Jason recalls how it took awhile after his accident and life-changing brain injury to realize Monica loved him. Cue the flashback of young Monica and Jason. In the present, Jason shares he wishes he had memories of growing up with Monica as his mom, and regrets he didn’t ask her when he had a chance. Tracy pipes up; she can tell him all about. She reminds Jason that Monica loved him and the two share a sorrowful hug.

So, what did you think of the scenes between Jason and Tracy, as portrayed by Steve Burton and Jane Elliot, who in tears and sadness connected over the loss of Monica? Share your thoughts via the comment section.

Steve Burton and Jane Elliot did outstanding work in today’s episode. Kate Hall was the right person to be involved with the script for today’s episode, and this is purely the beginning.

What wonderful scenes with Tracy and Jason. And the flashbacks were good to see. Steve and Jane brought their A-game in today’s episode.

Steve Burton and Jane Elliot broke my heart. The next several weeks are going to be very, very painful for us long term viewers.

Slightly off topic here but… since when does Port Charles have a “Sheriff”??

Can’t remember ever seeing or hearing about a Sheriff before, and now they show up because Monica dies, presumably of natural causes, in her own home. If they needed some sort of official documentation of her death, wouldn’t the paramedics who were already on the scene be qualified to do that? And if any sort of police presence was required, surely they are aware that two PCPD detectives currently live in that very residence?

Just seems like a random thing they threw in to interrupt some otherwise great scenes between Tracy & Jason. And oddly enough, the Sheriff’s name tag said “Lewis”. Any chance he could be the son of 80’s PCPD chief, Guy Lewis??

It’s not that weird where I live we have Sheriff dept and we have a regular police dept

I found it very endearing. Monica and Tracy had a very unusual relationship. They acted like sisters. Tracy, can be as hard as nails. Also, as soft as a kitten. She has been able to ad excitement To the show.

That was pure love and kindness.
It was a beautiful seen

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.

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.
