This is a recipe for disaster, and Carly is the one who got it cooking. Carly Corinthos (Laura wright), wife of Port Charles mobster, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) was relieved when her daughter, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) disclosed that she doesn’t want to move to Australia with her father Jasper ‘Jax’ Jacks (Ingo Rademacher). Carly’s solution to keeping her daughter and Dev Cerci (Ashton Arbab) safe from Sonny’s enemies is to keep them home schooled, hiring one of their teacher’s to tutor Joss and Dev while they are avoiding public places such as school. Carly asked Joss if there was a teacher in particular whom she thought would be a good fit for the job. Josslyn immediately got a suspicious look on her face, indicating exactly who she had in mind.
General Hospital spoilers hint that Carly’s plan to keep her daughter safe may back fire but not in a way she would think. It seems as if Josslyn is a little smitten with Mr. Phillips (Mark Lawson). Joss and Mr. Dustin Phillips don’t have a lot of history or even an encounter that would be considered inappropriate thus far. However, Dustin was there for Josslyn in her time of grief over Oscar Nero (Garren Stitt). Dustin found Josslyn crying while visiting Oscar’s grave. Dustin offered condolences and support for the grieving student. He encouraged her to keep a journal of her thoughts and feelings as a coping mechanism for grief.
General Hospital rumors claim that Dustin and Joss working so closely together on a regular basis will cause some awkward tension, possibly leading to feelings that are not appropriate for a teacher/student relationship. It remains to be seen how this will play out, if Josslyn is the one who catches feelings, whether or not Dustin reciprocates, or if Dustin makes an inappropriate move on Josslyn first.
Dustin seems like he has always had an odd side to him, like he has a dark side or at least a sneaky one. Will Dustin jeopardize his relationship with Lulu (Emme Rylan) while teaching Joss privately?
