So, I don’t find it risky. I find it current and true to humanity. We’re just telling people’s stories. I don’t know if it’s risky to tell the Alzheimer’s story or the transgender story because we are reflecting people in the world today and I think that’s important.”

General Hospital previews and spoilers indicate that Carly is ready to close her chapters with Sonny and move on while he dwells on his past. Carly and Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) friendship somewhat mimics her iconic friendship with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). She and Jason only started to develop and act on their feelings after many years of sharing an unbreakable bond. Even though Drew can’t replace Jason, maybe Carly will be able to take their friendship to a romantic level faster than she ever did with Jason.

General Hospital previews indicate Carly makes her decision to keep this news a secret. It looks is though this won’t be one of those storylines that drag out for months, having Carly dance around the truth, doing we drunk for she can to keep this from Nina and Willow.

Since Drew knows what Carly has been up to, GH spoilers and previews claim he will not let Carly keep this to herself.
GH spoilers suggest that Drew can’t have something that heavy weighing on his conscience and tries to convince Carly to come forward with what she knows. If Carly doesn’t listen, Will Drew take matters into his own hands?

What is Stockholm Syndrome?

Sonny has pushed away the ones who have always been by his side, now staying loyal to a liar.
General Hospital fans can’t help but to agree with Carly, questioning whether or not there is something deeper going on with Sonny.
