General Hospital‘s Scout has grown up overnight. She is older, wiser, and proving herself to be a true Quartermaine. This teen may give even Tracy a run for her money.
Key Takeaways
- There is a new Scout in town.
- She knew exactly the right way to ask Tracy for a favor.
- Tracy knew what she was up to and respected the way Scout handled herself.
- Scout got what she wanted.
How Scout Got What She Wanted
A brand new Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) has emerged, and she knows what she is doing. After having Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) drive her to the Qs, she went straight to Tracy (Jane Elliot) with a request. She didn’t start with someone easier, such as Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) or Michael (Rory Gibson). Scout went straight to the top to get what she wanted.
She began by asking to swim in the lake, explaining that it was for a race for a charity event. Then she carefully added that it was to honor Grandma Monica (Leslie Charleson), with the proceeds going toward fighting breast cancer. The teen knew that saying charity, Monica, and breast cancer would be all she needed to hook Tracy.
This is not Great Aunt Tracy’s first rodeo, and she knew exactly what Scout was doing. It was obvious to her that her niece would ask for more than just the lake, and she was, of course, correct. The real ask was for her dad to be there to cheer her on.
Tracy Recognizes a True Quartermaine
Tracy hates Drew (Cameron Mathison, who revealed the scenes that changed Drew forever). It would not shock anyone if Tracy had immediately turned down Scout’s request. But she didn’t.
The look on Tracy’s face said it all. She saw a little of herself in her great-niece, and she was proud of the way Scout handled herself to get what she wanted. It wasn’t manipulation; it was understanding the way her family communicates and using their own system to her advantage. She was practically brilliant. Tracy suddenly has a newfound respect for Drew’s daughter.
There is a new Scout in town, and she may just take Port Charles by storm. It looks like we have a true Quartermaine on our hands, and we cannot wait to see what happens from here. She may even have signs of a young Tracy. What do you think of the new Scout?
