GENERAL HOSPITAL: WSB Agent Josslyn Jacks
On General Hospital, the WSB may soon have its newest spy if Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) has anything to do with it. Jack has taken control of cleaning up the scene where Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) shot and killed Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) after firing two bullets from her late boyfriend, Dex Heller’s, gun.
In the pick-up on the Friday, February 21st episode, Jack comes into the cabin, where a dead Cyrus Renault is on the ground and Josslyn is holding the gun. Joss had called Jack for help after she defended herself against Renault who was coming at her with an ax!
Jack tells Josslyn to hand him the gun; they need to take care of this themselves without involving the police. Josslyn says that no one will believe that she killed Cyrus in self-defense. Jack says once the WSB is involved, no one can know what happened. He tells her she must keep quiet about the whole night and the shooting. Josslyn promises she can stay quiet. He tells her he’ll take care of this, and implores her to tell no one she was there at the cabin.

Now back at the WSB bureau’s office in Port Charles, Jack tells her to go shower off any evidence, and that there are clothes for her to put on and to leave everything she had on behind. Josslyn is stunned. When she goes to shower, she has a flashback of the moment where she kills Cyrus. In the present day, she runs to the toilet to throw up.
Colette (Mercedes Lopez Renard) enters Jack’s office and he informs her that Josslyn killed Cyrus. He explains Cyrus attacked Lucky and Elizabeth and there is now an APB out on him and it won’t take long before Anna will find the cabin. She must hurry and make sure the cabin is cleaned up with no signs of the shooting, except for one thing.

Josslyn returns as Jack puts the gun in his safe. All of a sudden things take a turn. Jack shows Josslyn the photo of Cyrus with a knife behind Dex; which means he had the evidence to go to the police with. However, he says he wanted to see what Josslyn would do. Suddenly, Jack tells Josslyn she’s special and she would make a great agent for the WSB and wants her to join his team.

Shocked and stunned, Josslyn says that protecting herself doesn’t make her a spy, but he disagrees. When Jack questions on her and what happened at the cabin, Josslyn shares she found the hospital ID bracelets of Sam and Dex and the others and how Cyrus showed up with an ax. Next, Jack gives Josslyn cash for a new phone. He instructs her to tell everyone she lost her other phone. Jack also gives her the keys to her car, which he had brought to the bureau. He checks that she will keep this all between them. As she exit, Jack says “We’ll be in touch.”

As she exits, Collette returns and says to Jack that she cannot believe she just gets to leave here, just like that. Jack counters with, “Yes, and when she comes back, it’s better she thinks it’s her idea.”
As previously reported, General Hospital’s head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten noted on the storyline: “We’ll soon learn why. Brennan’s presence in Port Charles and his proximity to Carly is no accident. His feelings for Carly are accidental, though, and those feelings will come into direct conflict with his intentions for Josslyn.”
So, what is going on here? Does Jack have a plan to bring someone down and is going to use Josslyn do it who would be unassuming to her family, friends and the community? Is Jack trying to help Joss or going to ultimately blackmail her into working for the WSB? What did you think of the twist? Can you see Josslyn as full-fledged WSB spy and enjoying it?

just when you thought the writing could not get worse…..
I know, right?
It’s awful.
The writer’s chose the wrong person, as usual to be WSB agent, should have been Emma!!! Joss did everything wrong at that crime scene! I realize it’s a soap, but make it make sense!
That’s hilarious! They have ruined Emma who’s acting more like some high school kid than a college student. Maybe the Girl Scouts could use her money raising skills. I’m not crazy about Joss, but it’s hard believing they grew up together , vying for Spencer’s attentions.
Joss should have called Jason to help her out, and not Brennan. Either one could have effectively disposed of Cyrus’s body and cleaned up the scene. But there wouldn’t have been “strings attached” if Jason did it. Or even Sonny, for that matter.
That’s what I said too if she called sonny n jason
This is a while later, but I was just thinking back to howJoss got stuck joining the WSB when it was not her intention. Why didn’t she call Jason ? Or Sonny . Either one would’ve taken care of it with their best intentions for her safety only . She is family to them . Why call Jack? I don’t like how Jack basically made her join the WSB . She’s just a a college kid. ! Today he had her bfc. Vaughn Taken away from Vivan for ignoringhis orders to stay away from Joss .Jack is attractive and charming but too dangerous! , I’m glad Carly is now on to him.! I’m surprised he didn’t notice that she was much colder to him today..
That little twit, all she does is cause trouble and gets in her own way. The writers apparently don’t know her like we do!
Well, she is Carly’s daughter after all… nuff said.
Not necessarily feeling chemistry with McKenna & Wright. He is selling it, however, as a powerful WSB agent. His methodical delivery when explaining the situation to Joss and details to Colette was spot on.
Actually like the concept of Joss as a WSB agent – if the writers can pen plausible stories for her in that position.
I agree. As a WSB agent, he is cunning, sinister, and dangerous, but the ship with Carly has sailed.
She can play “Spy Girl” but it doesn’t mean she’ll be good at it, she’s too emotional, among other things.
I remember when there was talk of Emma following in her grandparents footsteps instead they turned her into a bratty teenager even though she’s supposed to be in college and in her early 20’s now, so although I love everything WSB, I wish the show would have the old WSB we loved with Anna and Robert, and they should bring in Annie, Sean and Tiffany daughter who is supposed to be an actual WSB agent. I’m not mad at bad WSB agents like Jack lurking around but I’m not sure I like this twist with Joselyn being forced to work for the WSB, is she going to the “farm” or do they just hand out WSB badges to anyone ? is the criteria killing someone? these two writers need to be fired, they made alll of 2024 of GH painful to watch, I’m not quitting my show but they really got to go.
I guess someone like Jack can recruit who he thinks is right for the job, even with him knowing that Carly will be livid when she finds out. Joss isn’t really being ” forced” but certainly coerced into something that certainly is her cup of tea, I don’t think Jack will have too much trouble signing her up.
Joss did everything wrong from the start:1.She blabbed to Cyrus letting him know he was the suspect in Dex’s murder. 2. She went to Cyrus’s cabin without telling anyone or requesting backup and 3. She left her fingerprints all over the ace, the gun and the cabin. I guess the writers are grooming her to be the next Anna Devane, aka, Emma Peal. I predict that Sidwell’s son will be Joss’s new love interest, hence creating a starstruck WSB universe reminiscent of Anna and Robert and later, Anna and Duke.
You’ve got some valid ideas but I’m concerned that this son of Sidwell and Natalia will most certainly not be a good thing for Joss. Didn’t his singer sister , forgot her name already, have some unpleasant things to say about her brother when she was still there in P.C?
I agree writers are terrible and I really dislike the new Brennan he’s as slimy as Drew blackmailing a young girl to be a WSB agent. I hope Carly and Jason find out and shut him down. We need to writers before General Hospital gets canceled
I’ve pretty much quit. Making Sonny kill Cates made absolutely no sense. Cy, ok, I get that, but having the feds sniffing around?
I think it made plenty of sense, it got rid of him, didn’t it? He was such a pain in the butt.
Emma is not a teen; she’s 21. She mentioned that when she spoke to Anna; that she’s over 21. She, Joss, Trina, and Gio are supposed to be around the same age now.
I think it’s actually one of the best storylines I have seen in a while. I think Joss’s character would be a great spy and she seemed to enjoy and be a natural at finding the evidence on Cyrus. Taking her in a new direction is gonna save her, what else is she gonna do now if she doesn’t do this? , So I like where this one is going.
But Joss didn’t “ find” any evidence. It was spoon fed to her by Brennan.
Joss makes no sense… now if you told me someone was recruiting Trina, our favorite art historian in training (i.e., built in travel cover) to the WSB I would buy it more. The only way this tracks for me is if Uncle Jerry is actually alive & well
I guess if ABC was going to produce a reality show called,”WSB’s Dumbest Agents”, sure, I could see a place fir Joss.
I guess the writers have been binge watching Alias. It could be worse. They could have Joss, Trina and Emma become Brennan’s Angels.
And this gets dumber and dumber by the day
This show gets deeper & deeper into poor storylines & way more poor writing!!!!
I watch in 10 minutes on tape just to see what I want & definitely NO Drew!!!
This is the worst plot twist. Fans aren’t happy.
Also bad is the way they changed Drew and Willow. The chemistry isn’t there .
Ya think?
I absolutely love the idea of joss being a WSBagent she is such a natural badass! I just don’t like that she would be hiding it from her mom I DO NOT WANT TO SEE this be a reason for Carly & Joss to have a problems in their mother/daughter bond. I absolutely Love LOVE LOVE their relationship.
Oh, my God! Do you really think Joss would be able to do her job, without her mother constantly interfering and tell her what to do and how to do it? What show have you been watching?
Please do not have Josselyn joining ranks with Brennen. That storyline is off the rails.
This story is fail, Joss cannot do an Alias storyline. Frank focus on wrong character in young twenty’s age group. This storyline also cheapens Sam death. Makes Dex death more important. Eden is a weak actress, makes this story harder to sell. Emma more suited for an Alias storyline. The new Emma is a better actress.
I’d think you’ll find most disagreeing with you. Eden is NOT a weak actress. You might not like the way Joss is written, but Eden delivers. If she didn’t, the show would’ve recast a long time ago.
I’m joining this discussion months later happened since but I will never understand why Joss called Jack instead of Jason or Sonny after she killed Cyrus and self-defense. Jason and Sonny would’ve fixed everything cleaned up the place etc ! and taken her home safely and that would’ve been the end of it. She should be enjoying her college been following the orders of Jack Brennan who is now her mother’s boyfriend Carly knows the whole story to doesn’t like it and is getting a goods on Brennan by pretending to still be interested in him. At the end of the show he has.Vaughn d dragged away because apparently he was told not to see Joss and he did anyway . I missed a few episodes here and there so I’m not up sure what’s going on regarding Vaughn.

The veteran actor was found dead on August 1st in his home in the Bronx, New York. Pastore was 80-years-old. The cause of death is yet to be determined.

According to Soap Opera Digest, Pastore told Soaps In Depth back in 2009, after appearing in a SOAPnet promotional campaign as a celebrity fan of General Hospital: “‘I’d love to be on the show. So they called up GH’s casting director (Mark Teschner) and Bobby (Robert Guza Jr. ex-head writer, GH) and they wrote me in!”
Pastore was a huge General Hospital fan from way back, who at one point told producers that he would watch the ABC soap opera while working in bars and nightclubs in the 70s and 80s.
Throughout his decades long career, Pastore appeared in films including: Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way and Men of Respect, The Jerky Boys: The Movie and the 1996 HBO TV movie Gotti.
In TV, besides The Sopranos, Pastore’s credits included: Law & Order, The Practice, Son of the Beach, Queens Supreme, Hawaii Five-0, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, plus the miniseries The Last Don II. Most recently, Vincent was a series regular on Gravesend and guest starred on Yellowjackets.
