Double your trouble, double your fun, get two General Hospital bitches back, instead of just one! Liesl Obrecht is back in Port Charles, and her daughter, Britt, is back in the land of the living. We’ve got two, no, three reasons to celebrate!
The Mother of All Bad Girls
Liesl (Kathleen Gatti) was a fabulous, terrible villain. She kidnapped Robin (Kimberly McCullough). She schemed with Faison (Anders Hove). She lied about Nathan (Ryan Paevey), which we still don’t understand why, but she did it, anyway. And she butchered singing karaoke. She was an awful mother to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud, who is thrilled to be back at GH), but the two kind of, sort of worked it out. (After Liesl kidnapped Ben/Rocco -Becco?—and handed him over to Faison.)
Liesl isn’t the woman she used to be, but she’s still a pretty cool badass. We loved how, more or less, straightforward she was with Rocco (Finn Carr) about his weird birth story. And how she figured out that Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) was going a bit wacko, coo-koo, faster than pretty much… anyone. Welcome back, Dr. Obrecht!

Chip Off the Old Mom
Britt did steal Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante’s embryo and gave birth to Becco, raising him for the first seven months of his life. (Except during the whole Obrecht steals her daughter’s baby for her bad boy obsession.)
But she was a good friend to Brad (Perry Shen), and she did truly fall in love with Jason (Steve Burton), who is kind of a bad guy himself. But the two of them were better together than they were apart—until Britt died.

Second Chances
Seems her death didn’t take. Britt seems to be alive. Jason “sensed” her. How? Heck, her mom has pulled off bigger scientific feats. And she’d hardly be the first person to come back from the dead, in Port Charles, or in soapland.
So Britt is back, Liesl is back, and we, the viewers, are back on the edges of our seats!
