Emotions were running high and are about to reaching their tipping points after the Thursday, March 19, episode of General Hospital. First, Jason (Steve Burton) is preparing to eliminate Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) inside his storage unit, but has a series of flashbacks of the goodbyes with the people he loves, before he tries to kill the man that is a threat to him and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud).

The flashbacks are tender and deep for Jason, as he remembers talking with Tracy (Jane Elliot) after his mother, Monica Quartermaine died, Carly (Laura Wright) advising him to not promise his son, Danny, when he would return, but that she will watch over him while Jason is gone, plus promising Carly if she died because of her relationship with Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna), he would kill him.

Jason prepares the long-range rifle, packs it his duffle bag. and locks the storage unit and heads out. Steve Burton once again brings the heart to the hitman in what is turning out to be his final scenes before his hiatus from the soap.

LYING TO MY FACE

Meanwhile, in an excellent performance from Laura Wright, Carly sits across her kitchen table from Jack Brennan. Armed with the knowledge of how Jack is deceiving her about her own daughter being in the WSB because of him, she tests him. She says, when people aren’t who you think they are, it’s probably because they aren’t being honest – and that’s not real love. Jack responds that he hated his job because it requires him to keep things from Carly, and while he is well-aware he wasn’t enough of a partner for her, he truly loved her.

An emotional Carly, with tears in her eyes, says that sometimes loving someone meant risking being honest, and asked Jack if he loved her enough to do that. However, before Jack could answer, duty called when he got an important message and had to leave. As he does, the camera reveal a devastated look on Carly’s face.

At his office at GH, Lucas (Van Hansis) is concerned because he hasn’t heard from Marco (Adrian Anchondo). While at Wyndemere, Pascal (Marc Forget) told Sidwell (Carlo Rota), once again, his concerns about Lucas. Sidwell headed him off at the pass, because he knows he has a crush on his son and wants Marco all to himself.  Marco arrives with contracts for his father to sign, so Pascal exits.

In a seemingly touching moment (but is it?), Sidwell thanked his son for sticking around, even though it’s taking time to avenge his mother’s death and bring down Sonny. Sidwell heads out to meet Ava on the mainland. Marco is then able to break into the safe and obtain two vials of Britt’s medication.

Later at Wyndemere, Pascal opens the safe and sees two vials missing and calls Cullum. He puts the blame on Lucas, Cullum says he will handle it. Cut to: an anxious Lucas worried about Marco, when suddenly his boyfriend shows up and hands Lucas two vials of Britt’s medication. Marco tells Lucas to get them to Britt ASAP because it’s only a matter of time before someone figures out they are missing. Marco reassured Lucas that everything will be alright because his father will protect him.

While Jason is an outside stairwell with his gun aimed at Cullum, the WSB director is at WSB headquarters telling off Jack for the Five Poppies debacle and demanding a resolution to the situation now. Suddenly, when Jack walks into the rifle’s view, and both he and Cullum are in range, Jason hesitates and tries to decide what his next move will be. We fade to black.

What did you think will happen next? Will Jason be able to shoot and kill Cullum? Will Sidwell turn on his own son, and potentially end his life? Will Lucas be in the line of fire, because he has the vials to reverse engineer the medication that saves Britt? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

Britt told Josslyn that Faison had FOUR children. I only know of 3(Peter, Britt, & Nathan). Many on social media claim he had a child named Sonny that was mentioned on Night Shift. I watched it & don’t even remember Faison being on that show. Does Faison really have a fourth child & if he did who is it? If anyone would know the correct answer to this question it’s you Michael.

It’s possible that the writers just messed up. Like they did a few months ago when they said Scout was 12 years old… which would have been impossible, because her father (Dragon Chow Drew) wasn’t even heard of then.

Double agent Cullum does resemble Faison a little bit. So it wouldn’t be out of the question if he were a chip off the old literally brainless block. But it would seem a little odd that neither Britt or Nathan have reacted to him as if he were a “long lost brother”.

And having Cullum as a son would be a major contradiction to Dr Obrecht’s past narrative of why she hid the fact that Nathan was her son from him and everybody else for decades. She said that she knew Faison would be obsessed with his son if he knew about him, to make sure he was raised up as a proper heir to the evil empire. But he wouldn’t have as much reason to be obsessed with Nathan if he already had a son. And Cullum is definitely older than Nathan. Or Heiny, for that matter.

Before they cut to Lucas (who was in the hospital) for his first scene, there was an establishing shot. That building looked nothing like LA County Hospital, which has been used as the exterior of GH since at least 1978. What gives, Frank? Wasn’t there enough backlash to the Wyndemere (cheap hotel) shot earlier this year, than to change the exterior of the building that’s still at the end of the opening credits? Heck, the building even looked the same when it was rebuilt after it blew up in the late 2000’s.

It feels like someone is having fun utilizing AI generated images. It’s stupid and tacky.

It seems they have copied this idea from Days of Our Lives, who has been using these AI generated “external” shots for a while. Some of which make no sense at all, like showing the Horton house – which has been standing since the show’s beginning in 1965 – looking like it’s right in the middle of a recently built subdivision.

LA County Hospital built a new, modern hospital several years ago. That may have been a picture of the new building. That old hospital is a broken down mess. Since the sets for the show are updated, they may feel it’s time to show an updated exterior.

I noticed the same thing. Having once lived in LA, and driven past the old General Hospital many times, when I saw the new building in the recent episode, it made me wonder if there had been a new addition built somewhere near the main hospital. In the far background, it looked like the very top part of the old hospital showing behind the new building. Llanviewer717 mentioned a new addition built, earlier.

I had a gut feeling the medication in the safe wasn’t the real thing.

So the butler is gay too?

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

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.
