As things fall apart in different ways for both Detective Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) this week on General Hospital, there is nothing like some “hot” company and a little booze won’t cure for one night? Right?
Well, from the looks of this sneak peek scene from ABC.com, it looks like it! After drowning their sorrows at the bar, Nathan asks Britt “Do you want to get out of her?” To which she replies: “Why the hell not?”
So, will Britt and Nathan hit the sheets? Is this the beginning of a new romance? Or, just a messy one-night stand? Or, will they never have sex and Britt will pass out drunk?
Watch the video teaser after the jump and then weigh-in how you think this will play out!

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.
It’s been over two-years since his last appearance on General Hospital, now fan favorite Kin Shriner (Scott Baldwin) has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the casting of his grown-up TV daughter, Serena Baldwin now played by Kelly Kruger.
Kelly took over the role of Serena on-screen starting with the July 30, 2026 episode and has been ensconced in the storyline with her mother, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), in trying to win back full creative control of Deception for her.
In fact on the Monday, October 19 episode of the ABC soap opera, Serena tried to dupe Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) into signing over Michael’s (Rory Gibson) shares of the company. Jason caught on and wondered why she was doing this. She claimed she just wanted to help her mom gain creative control from Tracy (Jane Elliot) rather than full ownership, and begged Jason to keep quiet about it, which he agreed to for now.

WHERE IS SCOTT?
On Monday, Shriner also took to X and said, “I think Kelly Kruger is doing a great job on General Hospital, and she and Lynn Herring work well together.” That was followed by comments in his thread about the show needing to bring back Scott too.
In fact, back on August 25, Shriner also took to X with a reminder that Scott is still around and ready to come back to Port Charles, sharing, “Scotty Baldwin always fits in he just needs the right sport coat !!!!”
The last time Serena mentioned her father Scott was when Kruger made her debut and informed Lucy that her father was, “living his best life in Key West.” Meanwhile, Shriner posts on his X account continually and shared back on August 2, that it has been 49 years since he made his on-screen debut as then teenaged, Scotty Baldwin and thanked the fans for al the love and support.
So, now let us know, are you enjoying Kelly Kruger as Serena Baldwin? Do you want to see GH bring back Scott Baldwin into the story, so Serena has both her parents in Port Charles? Do you like the potential of Jason and Serena pairing? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

Couple o’ comments…
They make a great looking couple.
As for Nathan’s acting…it’s so bad it’s good! LOL…What I mean is that I got used to him and now I actually think his stilted, almost clipped way of speaking fits the role. It’s sort of like a…”just the facts, man…just the facts.” He’s beyond cute…there’s something very earnest about his role…and I like him!
As for the two of them, could be an interesting match. Seems like all the cops in Port Charles fall for people who are either criminals or have criminal family. Is that a crime? Ahem…
lol…the reason cops fall for criminals on GH is because almost everyone in PC is a criminal!!!
You are so right Mr leave it to beaver..I thought with the new regime we, as fans, will get less of the “mini Sopranos” act, but it actually is the same like before but more so..Dark, gloomy and cartoonish but I still love my GH.
As for the possible pairing of Britt and Nathan, good! Kelly is a good actress and I hope she gets more screen time with a different storyline..Maybe it will help Ryan become more comfortable with his role and let loose.
Rebecca… you captured my thoughts exactly. I hope Carlivati writes Nathan as a heroic character. The audience would like a balance in mob-filled Port Charles.
We can count on poor decision-making by the head writer. He does not write character-driven stories or romance well.
Excepts that according to Dr. O. , they are siblings…Britt and Nathan, that is .
Ya lol. But today we found out they are siblings, so they’re probably gonna start dating That’s just how GH is
They most likely will! Because, hey, they don’t know they’re siblings. So who could blame them for wanting to date? They met and they instantly clicked and got along great. Nathan usually doesn’t just invite any random girl to his house. And it looks like he has interest in her, in my opinion.
No, Mel. I hope not…not even GH would go that low…that is gross. Incest? No way, no how. All the fans would be up-in- arms about it.
I think a Britt will get back with Nikolas and Elizabeth with Rick.
I dont like either of these characters but I like the move. This guy is good looking and he really could pick up whomever he wants and we all know Britt is a Hoochie so this is believable. I hope they hook up and head off into the sunset! See ya!
Please make her pass out drunk. I’m looking forward to MAXIE’S return, and a chance to see her
with Nathan.That should be interesting and lots of FUN.
I want Maxi to walk in on them as they are making out in her apartment!!!
i want them all to make out with each other! its high time for daytimes first three way and these three are the one to get it started.
According to rumors… they are brother and sister… Nathan is the son of Doctor O…. … Dr O gave him to his sister Madeline to raise…
I keep thinking that Britt is not the bio-child of frau doctor and Faison, but was taken in similar fashion to try to please faison so many years ago. Seeing how he was so entranced with having a boy, can’t think she would have given a boy to her sister…. time will tell all secrets.
I think Nathan was given to Maddie because Nathan is the love child between Victor Cassadine and Dr. O!
I have not seen today’s show yet, but dating my thought on the Britt’s true parenting…. just had a thought…. she could be Nina’s child, then being Nathan’s niece. Know their ages are close, but I was only 7 when my nephew was born, so could happen. And Madeline did not say if she was successful in aborting the baby… since Silas was not able to see Nina, he did not see her PG so baby is born and given away.
Ya. I think Britt is going to be Nina’s child, because they never said it died. And Silas said she was in a coma for over 20 years and Britt is probably in her 20ties.
Oh my, very interesting!
i though they were related….Det WEST, Dr WEST-bourne? either way, YUCK. they should have paired her with her real-life beau, Morgan but I guess since he is LuLu’s cousin it might be too soon? LOL
I also thought Nathan was related to Britt.For example maybe his mom and Dr.Obrecht are siblings.So Madeline’s maiden name might have been Westbourne.However maybe when Nathan became a cop he took his mom’s maiden name as his mom’s last name but shortened it to West.If the show does make Britt and Nathan related somehow then i don’t see them having sex.As for a potential Britt and Morgan pairing i don’t see that happening anytime soon.
s or hot company nd a little booze,you would have to ask Liz about that;she got 3 babies from half drunk men.
Lol I thought I read that it was going to turn out that Nathan and Britt were brother and sister lol!!!!
Oh My Gosh…. I hope not as I have read that Nathan is indeed Dr O’s secret son making he and Britt siblings… In addition, Madeline and Dr O are sisters… in some form.
I do like Britt, she ha grown on me. I can’t help but hope she rises above it all and redeems herself somehow from her insane mother. Nik should understand crazy families.
I simply cannot stand Elizabeth, so I am hoping there is still some life left in Nik/ Britt.
On a side note, whoever you re right now, GO ANTHONY GEARY! Such an amazing actor… he makes us believe anything! My one fear right now, he is going to take his normal extended vacation sometime around May until almost October…will that mean this story line will be in limbo for the next months?
It probably wouldnt matter if Geary went on his vacation or not…itll probably take until Oct. to reveal who he is!!!
I think those were rumors. I don’t think they’re related. Considering Nathan seems to have interest in Britt it would be very awkward. Just because their last names are similar doesn’t automatically mean they are related some people can have the same last names and not be related.
His name isnt even West…Nathan West is his undercover name!!!
True, Fey. But, this is a soap. There needs to be a twist.
They are related, I know it sucks. But maybe the show could throw in a twist and make Britt Nina’s baby who Madeline tried to kill. It never said what happened so I think this would be a nice plot twist
Yeah it very much sucks that they’re siblings. However, I may very well be wrong, and there’s a 90% Chance I’m wrong, but what if Obrecht stole Britt? I’ll elaborate. In the preview to the next episode she is yelling that Nathan and Britt are siblings. This seems weird, why would she find the need to yell that? Perhaps she kidnapped Britt, and Madeline knows it. Madeline wants a way to get under Obrecht’s skin, so she brings that up. And Obrecht isn’t pleased to be reminded that she stole Britt. That’s why she yells it. However I could be very very well wrong, I just really want Nathan and Britt to date. Lol.
All I can say;
a one-nighter with Nathan would be a very good thing 😉
((quote Janis= ”get it while you can” …. lol
and- they will become whatever ..
DITTO.. as long as he does not talk.. just do the deed and move on…
Not with your own brother, you don’t. Yuck.
I don’t think the greatest of the great, Janis Joplin was referring getting it from one’s own brother…lol
I’LL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IF THE TWO OF THEM GET TOGETHER. I WAS HOPING FOR MAXIE TO GET INVOVLED WITH HIM. OH WELL, JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN. BOTH ARE DRUNK AS A PIG. HOPEFULLY THEY WON’T DO ANYTHING AND JUST GET KNOCKED OUT FROM DRINKING, OR THEY WON’T REMEMBER THEIR NAMES. TIME WILL TELL.
Quite honestly, I’ve disliked Britt since she came on the show and I can’t stand Nathan. I hope they’re both off the show soon.
I haven’t heard any rumors about them being siblings but West and Westbourne do sound similar, so maybe there is a connection. But making Madeline and Dr. O sisters would be beyond ridiculous, they look and sound nothing alike.
I was kind of hoping Madeline turns out to be Victor Cassadine’s ex wife and Monica’s sister, or maybe even a third Q child (sister of Alan and Tracy). Then she’d have ties to two powerful families, and seeing her in scenes with Monica and especially Tracy would be amazing.
Ive written that too…Madelyn and Monica as sisters with Madelyn raising Monicas daughter Nina and marrying Ninas father James Reeves who was Monicas first love…and Madelyn having an affair with Victor Cassidine and Nathan is Victors son and thats why James left all his money to only Nina but only Maddie knows this and never told Nathan! However i do like your suggestion making Maddie Alan and Tracy’s sister…its a slim chance either way but we can still hope it happens!!!
my guess (and this probably sounds very silly) is that Dr O and Victor did once have a love child, Christina Cassadine who was raised by Madelyn as “Nina” Reeves. This makes the ‘killing-my-daughter-and-her-Silas-baby’ storyline more palatable, no?
I am so curious..Why so many people want Madelyn and Monica to be sisters? It sounds like a good idea and it will probably be delicious seeing these two actors go at it but why do I see so many post about this? What Ms Charleson on Knots Landing or what Ms Millls in GH at some point?? I really do love the ideas you guys are putting out there…GH needs this kind of comic/dramatic force.
My reason for wanting Donna and Leslie to play sisters is it would be sort of a nod to when they played sisters Iris and Laura Donnelly on ‘Love Is A Many Splendored Thing’ 40 years ago plus with the killing of A.J., and very little family left for Monica, making them sisters could provide Leslie with more story for years to come, especially if Nina is alive and turns out to be Monicas daughter…i had written how this could be possible in another post. Unfortunately, i doubt tptb will do this story…they most likely dont read these posts and even if they did i still doubt theyd use fan ideas in fear that sometimes most fan ideas look better than their own and they dont want to admit that for obvious reasons!!!
Knowing Ron’s lack of imagination, she’ll get pregnant and then Nik will want to reconcile w/ her — a la Carly/AJ and Tony.
Nathan is Dr. O’s son!
I really like Britt..Hate Liz…but I might be able to stomach her if she were with Ric…not with Nik though..that ship has sailed…Britt is human unlike some of the other characters that are hypocrites..I saw that rumour on this website that Michelle Stafford is going to be Nina..now that could definitely be interesting…
I hope they are not siblings because the fact that they almost sleep together is beyond gross! I really can’t see Madeline and Dr. O as sisters but stranger things have happened.
And they may actually sleep together, so yeah that would be awkward. So hopefully not! :p they’d be a great couple too! 🙂 I would love to see Britt be Nathan’s first love interest on GH. 🙂
I love the idea of these two! For some reason I always thought these two would instantly ‘click’ when they meet eachother. I don’t know if this will happen, but what if they did end up sleeping together, to which a week later Britt finds out she’s pregnant and doesn’t know if the baby is Nikolas’s or Nathan’s. That would be lovely drama. :p
Id agree with you but GH has had enough baby drama this year but you still could be right!
I like both characters and actors but would prefer Nathan with Maxie and Brit with Nicholas.
What is up with Britt and connecting to men who have terrible family members? First Nikolas, now Nathan. Considering the situation both of them are in, it’s not a shocker they hook up. I like the idea of them as a couple. I hope they’re not siblings either. After the failure of Kiki and Michael cousin storyline I am so sick of GH trying to do this incest stuff. Don’t make it happen. Make them a couple.
Both of them are beautiful people. Google Ryan and you’ll see some hot pix!
I know!!…he is deeeelish.
Well yes…Now can we move on…
Sam
Silas
Alexis
Danny
Recast for Jason
that’s all I’m interested in
Awww shucks I was hoping for a Britt and Luke pairing, since the new Luke likes her “tail” so much LOL.
Well, they can certainly bond over their respective “mommy issues!”
Please don’t put Nickolas and Elizabeth together…… They are not a handsome couple, and its going backward not forward. Elizabeth is the Amy Vinning of Port Charles, ( a filler, background player,eyou get the point…) She is just not a lead player to me. Perhaps if she gains some weight, and look more like a woman, oppose to a teenager in size, that may help her become more convincing as a lead actress, opposite a handsome hunk.
PLEASE DON’T PUT NICKOLAS WITH ELIZABETH……
I want Nathan and Maxie together! 🙂
britt and nathan are fraternal twins!
It will be sick if they sleep together–they are siblings.
Lo and behold! For once, Elizabeth is thinking of someone else before herself! How long will it take for that little imp inside of her to rear its ugly head again?….her past is not so stellar.
I do like the premise someone suggested, that is…Nathan and Britt being twins. Dr. O kept Britt but gave Maddie Nathan, for reasons that are a mystery right now. So, does that mean that Faizon has that long-awaited -for son? And if Dr. O wanted so desperately to give him a son, why stash him away? ….I am really loving GH right now…..enjoying the mystery.s
Hi, Christy. I think I posted this before….Britt is too old to be Nina’s and Silas’ daughter…..as is Nathan. Nina went into a coma 20 years ago. Britt is a doctor. In order to hold this position in the medical field she had to have gone through medical school and then do her internship. She must be close to thirty . But, anything is possible on soaps….I don’t want to put my foot in it. Lol
It’s almost silly how GH is trying to pass this guy who plays Nathan off as an actor. He’s so baaad. For the first time (in foreveer..wait, stop it!) I don’t care how attractive a guy is because the acting takes away so much of the appeal. I’d rather have a guy not as conventionally attractive as him who knows how to act. A guy who, just through his expression or show of emotion, can make me think he’s a million times hotter than he is. COME ON!
