In the September 24 episode of General Hospital, Justine admitted how she really felt about Sonny to Jordan. However, her admission not only showed how deeply she’s in denial about the reality of the romance but also what she’s willing to risk for it.
Key Takeaways
- Jordan confronted Justine about her kiss with Sonny.
- Justine was honest with Jordan but not with herself.
- The two men are living in a delusional world regarding the romance.
Justine Comes Clean About Dating Sonny
The day after Jordan (Tanisha Harper) spotted Justine (Nazneen Contractor) kissing Sonny (Maurice Benard) outside the Brown Dog. Justine was embarrassed, but also confirmed she had something going on with Sonny.
Along with that, Justine also confided in Jordan that she has real feelings for the former mob boss. Justine was almost like a giddy schoolgirl as she discussed her relationship.
The more that Justine gushed over Sonny, the more things became clear to Jordan that Justine was in deep and in denial. Justine insisted there was something about Sonny she couldn’t quit.
Jordan Plays the Good Friend
There’s no question that Jordan and Justine are great friends. Jordan proved that as she clocked that Justine wasn’t fully grasping the impact Sonny can have on her career.
She warned Justine to be more careful, or the relationship would end up public. That warning was met with a smile and an admission that Jordan was right. Justine had gotten carried away the night before and she needed to not let that thappen again.
However, on the other hand, Justine waxed about the possibility of her and Sonny making a go of the relationship since he was out of the mob now. Jordan seemed concerned about this as she reminded Justine of her career goals, aka becoming the new Port Charles DA.
The Reality of Being With Sonny Is Lost on Justine
For a very smart woman who has spent months working to keep her romance with Sonny on the down low, suddenly the reality of her relationship seemed lost on Justin. She came across as a teenager living in a dream world because she knows Sonny in a certain way.
The reality is that Justine won’t be DA and have a relationship with Sonny. Even though he’s out of the mob, for now, the optics of being with him will destroy her career. Plus, let’s be honest, he’s so getting back into the mob and probably sooner rather than later.
Justine can bury her head in the sand, much like what Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) has done with Chase (Josh Swickart), but the reality will come back to haunt her and cost her. The question is just how much will Justine lose before she realizes she’s in denial about her relationship with Sonny?
