General Hospital has turned Willow into an evil villain who has become beyond unlikable. However, Willow had one conversation that may have been a tease that the old, good, decent Willow isn’t gone forever.
Key Takeaways
- Willow had a touching moment with Scout.
- She not only reassured Scout but also put her needs first.
- Willow even hinted she will make sure Scout isn’t separated from her family again.
It’s About Time Willow Showed She’s Not All Bad
In the June 17 episode of GH, Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) brought Drew (Cameron Mathison) for a checkup at the hospital. When they arrived, Drew and Willow saw Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) putting ice on Scout’s (Reagan Park) ankle.
Molly (Kristen Vaganos) showed up frantic that Scout was hurt. Once she saw that Willow and Drew were there, panic set in. Danny and Molly feared that they would lose access to Scout again.
Willow, though, showed her one redeeming quality in a sweet conversation with a very worried Scout. The young girl didn’t want to be taken away from her brother, grandmother, or aunt again. Willow reassured Scout she would make sure that did not happen.
There was a softer, gentler version of Willow as she talked to her stepdaughter. Willow has Scout’s best interests at heart, which was clear, and she knows Drew may not think the same way when he’s no longer incapacitated.
GH fans saw the look on Drew’s face when she saw Scout with Danny. It was a hint of what was to come. However, Willow also hinted that, in her blackmail plans for Drew, she could include a demand that he allow Scout to see Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn), Danny, and Molly.
For once, Willow wasn’t all about revenge or getting the upper hand or her own selfish needs. Willow was all about Scout, and it was written all over her face. After seeing nothing but despicable Willow for so long, it was a refreshing change of pace to see her actually be a decent person and not for an agenda.
Yes, she has been helping Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) with baby Phoebe (Luna and Lucia Creighton). However, that has been all about getting close to Chase, even if Willow won’t admit it.
The moment with Scout was real, nothing else, and a reminder to GH fans that Willow used to be a good person. Willow loves Scout and wants her to be happy.
Now, that doesn’t mean she won’t use her desire to make Scout happy to her advantage at some point, because, let’s be honest, she will.
