Scout is back on General Hospital, and she is now a teenager, played by Kayden Brenna Tokarski. Scout is reconnecting with her family, but we know that, on soaps, if you don’t have a love interest, you don’t have a story. And that’s where Scout’s prospects are… limited.
Key Takeaways:
- Scout is related to almost everyone in her peer group
- Scout is related to almost everyone in the next age group, too
- Scout needs someone new
Brotherhood of Man
Scout is Port Charles’ new teen! (Which is a little weird, when you think of all the stories the current teens had about needing to protect the much younger girl. But that’s soaps for you!) Let’s take a look at potential love interests for her. Scout and Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) share a mother, the late Sam (Kelly Monaco). But Scout also considered Rocco (Finn Carr) a brother because Sam spent a few years raising her children alongside Dante (Dominic Zampronga).
Other teens who are kind of, sort of still on the canvas include Elizabeth’s (Rebecca Hearbst) younger sons, Aiden (Colin Cassidy), who is gay, and Jake (Hudson West), who is Scout’s cousin via their dads, identical twins Jason (Steve Burton) and Drew (Cameron Mathison). (Scout is also cousins with Jason’s son, Danny. So yes, they are siblings and cousins.)
For the Girls
There are fewer girls for Scout to date in her age range, and even then, there are bloodlines. Charlotte’s (Bluesy Burke) father is Valentin (James Patrick Stuart). His father is Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessey). Victor’s niece is Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn). Alexis is Sam’s mother, and Scout’s grandmother.
Maybe the show could age Donna (Scarlett Spears)? They don’t seem to be related in any way. (Well, except for the fact that Donna’s dad, Sonny (Maurice Benard), once lost a daughter with Scout’s mom, Sam. But that’s ancient history.) So how will poor Scout keep from being lonely?
