The fallout of Brook Lynn lying about being the other driver in Curtis and Jordan’s car accident remains front and center on General Hospital. Chase has all but given up on his marriage, while Brook Lynn remains certain he will forgive her. The problem is that what Chase wants from Brook Lynn in order to forgive her, she won’t be able to do, and it spells trouble for them.
Key Takeaways
- Chase desperately needs Brook Lynn to regret keeping her secret.
- Brook Lynn would make the same decision again for Phoebe.
- This could be the breaking point for Chase.
Brook Lynn and Chase Are Way Past the Apology Point
There’s no question that Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) have different morals and values. It’s one reason why Brook Lynn apologizing to Chase for her secret won’t fix anything.
Sure, Brook Lynn expressing remorse and saying she’s sorry means something to Chase. However, what he really wants from his wife is for her to admit she would make a different choice if she could go back in time.
Brook Lynn, though, admitted to Tracy (Jane Elliot) that she has no regrets about her choice because of Phoebe (Lucia & Luna Creighton). She will never be sorry for not putting Phoebe’s adoption in jeopardy and making Phoebe her priority.
Unfortunately, Chase isn’t focused on that; he can’t get past the decision Brook Lynn made. Chase needs her to regret that she didn’t report her part in the accident, but she doesn’t and won’t.
Is This the End of the Road for Chase and Brook Lynn?
Brook Lynn has been filled with remorse since she realized she was the other driver in the accident. Once the secret was out, Brook Lynn owned her mistake of keeping the secret and has shown remorse for the damage she caused.
Chase doesn’t seem to need her remorse. What he needs or wants is to see a change in her that she just isn’t going to give him. If Brook Lynn were to tell him that she would make a different choice, it could give Chase hope for them.
Since Brook Lynn has admitted she isn’t sorry for keeping quiet because they ended up adopting Phoebe, these two are at an impasse in their marriage. Chase can’t seem to find a middle ground with his wife after this incident, and that won’t help them.
All signs point to Brook Lynn and Chase getting separate,d as she can’t give him the one thing he thinks he needs from her.
