In the August 18 episode of General Hospital, Britt learned Jason walked away from Sonny and the mob and asked all the right questions. Britt even brought up one that Jason didn’t want to face because it would be the one thing that could force him to betray his word to Danny.
Key Takeaways
- Britt asked if Jason would stand by if Sonny were in trouble.
- Jason insisted Danny was his priority.
- Britt forced an issue that even Jason doesn’t want to think about.
The One Glaring Question Even Carly Didn’t Ask
It’s been a minute since Jason (Steve Burton) informed Sonny (Maurice Benard) he had to get out of the mob. Jason had a heartfelt conversation with Sonny, who completely understood why Jason quit working for him.
When Jason told Carly about his decision, it was a conversation about making Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) his number one priority. Jason even admitted some things to Carly about their past. Carly, like Sonny, never asked a very important question.
Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) turned out to be the person asking the question that everyone was really thinking about. Would Jason really be able to stand back if danger found Sonny?
Sounding Like a Broken Record
Look, Jason has been focused on Danny since he returned, and rightfully so. However, he has started to sound like a broken record as he explained his choice to no longer work with Sonny, even at Corinthos.
It was the same thing when Britt asked more than once about being able to walk away from Sonny, especially if Sonny was in real danger. Jason once again reiterated that Danny was his main concern.
Aside from the fact that Jason has another son that he never mentioned, the fact that Jason basically avoided Britt’s question speaks volumes.
The Truth Not Even Jason Wants to Admit
Jason and Sonny have a rich history that spans decades. It hasn’t always been a pretty history, but at the end of the day, Jason was always loyal to Sonny.
The question Britt asked proved that Jason doesn’t want to think about that scenario. Jason has one focus right now, and that’s Danny.
Any situation that could lead him to go back on his word to his son isn’t something Jason wants to face. The reason is simple: Jason doesn’t know what he would do. Jason’s loyalty to Sonny runs deep, as does his desire to finally be a father.
Being forced to choose between saving Sonny and betraying his son isn’t something Jason can think about right now. Unfortunately for Jason, he may not be able to avoid it.
Sonny may have left the mob, but he still has enemies coming for him, like Drew (Cameron Mathison). If Sonny’s life is on the line because of Drew, will Jason really sit back and do nothing?
That’s the million-dollar question Britt asked, and Jason didn’t really answer it, so only time will tell, since GH fans know it will happen at some point.
