In the September 8 episode of General Hospital, Jason was the voice of reason that Anna needed as he pleaded for her not to kill Britt. Anna showed just how unstable she was, but Jason still knew what she loved most. Jason used that as he tried to stop his friend from taking unnecessary, drastic measures.
Key Takeaways
- Jason said what Anna needed to hear.
- Peter was on hand to make things worse.
- Anna can’t hide her mental state anymore.
Jason Shows Up Just in Time
Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) never expected to be fighting for her life when Anna (Finola Hughes) called her about information on Cassius (Ryan Paevey). However, once she arrived at Mount Emerson, that’s what happened.
Lucky for Britt, Jason wasn’t far behind. Jason assessed the situation as he begged for a gun-toting Anna to put the gun down. Anna showed just how fragile her state of mind was as she threatened to shoot Jason if he got in her way.
While Anna held them at gunpoint, Britt explained that Anna had fooled the mental health facility into thinking she was just fine, and that wasn’t the case. Jason pleaded with Anna to see that Britt was also a victim of Cullum’s (Andrew Hawkes), just like Anna.
Giving Anna a Harsh Reality
When it became clear that Jason’s words weren’t getting through to Anna, he listened as she explained that Faison’s (Anders Hove) evilness lived on through his children, so Britt had to be dead.
Jason then brought up her family that is connected to Faison: Maxie’s (Kirsten Storms) kids. He mentioned James (Gary James Fuller) and Bailey Lou (Miley & Riley Plonski), since the kids are technically Faison’s grandchildren.
Anna looked stunned as Jason asked if she planned to kill Bailey Lou and James, too. It was as if a lightbulb went off in Anna as Jason made the connection between a family she loved and Faison’s evil family.
The Truth Is Out
Jason forced Anna to realize that not all of Faison’s family is evil. He also had her see how that theory will have a grave impact on her loved ones, who she is so desperate to keep safe.
It was as if Anna had forgotten that Faison’s lineage doesn’t end with Nathan (Ryan Paevey), Peter, Britt, and Cassius. If her theory is correct, then the bad from Faison will live on through his grandkids, who Anna deeply loves.
There’s no question that Jason hit a nerve with Anna by mentioning Maxie’s kids and her harming them. However, with ghost Peter in her head, will it be enough to save Jason and Britt without any bloodshed?
