General Hospital’s Nina has been making poor decision after poor decision to “help” her daughter. She finally did the right thing by not injecting Jack a second time, which may change everything for her.
Key Takeaways
- Nina tried to make herself inject Jack, but she couldn’t do it.
- She did not follow Willow’s instructions.
- Her conscience may have finally gotten to her.
- Or she may just be afraid of going to prison because Jack was watching her.
Did Nina Follow Her Conscience?
Nina (Cynthia Watros) has been wracked with guilt ever since she injected Jack (Chris McKenna) while he was fighting with Valentin (James Patrick Stuart). She has been holding vigil at the hospital, and her nerves are shattered.
Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) instructed her mom to inject Jack again so that he doesn’t come out of his locked-in state. Nina will do anything for her daughter and planned to follow Willow’s instruction, but changed her mind at the last moment. She couldn’t do it.
Nina has been protecting Willow, who has been manipulating and threatening her, but this was too much. It’s about time. The Crimson Editor finally listened to her conscience and went against her daughter’s wishes. She could not bring herself to purposely hurt Jack.
Or Did She?
Nina may not have reached her moral limit. The only reason she may not have given Jack the injection was that he was watching her. The first time, she gave him the shot in his back so he didn’t see her do it. This time, his eyes were on her.
If and when he came out of this state, he would know that she purposely hurt him, and he is a WSB Agent. Nina would be in deep trouble if he survived.
She also knows that Willow would be happy to throw her under the bus. Her fingerprints are on the syringe, and her daughter would let Nina take the blame for both Drew (Cameron Mathison) and Jack. Willow would not hesitate to let her mom go to prison for her crimes.
This may be when Willow and Nina part ways, which would be the best thing for Nina, although she may not see it that way. Do you think Nina’s conscience got to her, or is she just afraid of going to prison? Let us know in the comments section.
