General Hospital Spoilers: Cody Returns Home to Grim Discovery as Outback Targets Shallow Grave
A hastily buried secret in the woods surrounding the Quartermaine estate is on the brink of being exposed. General Hospital spoilers hint that Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) could have a major, horrifying surprise waiting for him as soon as he touches down in Port Charles following his trip with Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos).
While Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) and Ava Jerome (Maura West) believe they successfully hid Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) corpse in a forgotten patch of land, an inquisitive pup and an outdoorsy stable hand might soon blow their entire cover-up wide open.
Cody Resumes Pup Duties After Molly’s Convention
Currently, Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) has been stepping up to dog-sit Outback while Cody is out of town. However, once Molly’s book convention wraps up, Cody will immediately resume his usual pup duties.
It may not take long for Cody to end up chasing Outback around the area, mirroring Charlotte Cassadine’s (Bluesy Burke) recent sprint after the runaway dog.
Charlotte followed Outback directly into the nearby nature preserve—a piece of land that formerly belonged to the Quartermaine estate. Because the territory is now designated as a protected habitat, Drew assumes that virtually no one will be poking around or disturbing the area.
Drew’s assumption, however, completely ignores the instincts of a determined animal. Outback has already gone digging at Brennan’s freshly dug grave site, and the dog will undoubtedly want to head straight back to that spot at the very first opportunity.
Outback Leads Cody to the Disturbed Ground
Shortly after Cody returns home, Outback may break away and run wild, leading Cody directly to the hidden burial site.
Just as Charlotte attempted during her run-in with the dog, Cody may initially try to put Outback on a leash and haul her back toward the Quartermaine house.
Yet, Outback is likely to put up a fight, refusing to budge and alerting Cody that something is deeply off about this specific section of the woods.
Given that Cody is a skilled outdoorsman, he is naturally equipped to notice subtle changes in the terrain. He may quickly realize that the earth beneath Outback’s paws has been recently disturbed.
If Cody notices the fresh soil and senses that Outback has stumbled onto something truly ghastly, he will be forced to make a critical choice right on the spot.
A Shallow Grave and a Difficult Choice
The grave that Drew and Ava dug for Brennan was far from deep. Because of how shallow the hole actually is, Cody might be tempted to grab a shovel himself to see what Outback is so obsessed with finding.
If he decides to dig into the dirt, Cody could end up uncovering Brennan’s dead body himself, leaving him utterly reeling from the grim discovery.
On the other hand, Cody might recognize the telltale signs of a clandestine burial site and decide against tampering with the area.
Hoping to avoid getting into legal trouble for disturbing a protected nature preserve, he may choose to call the police instead, letting the authorities handle the excavation professionally.
Either way, the ultimate outcome remains identical: Brennan’s corpse will finally be found.
Outback seems poised to play yet another crucial role in driving the town’s chaos forward, proving once again that she turns up at the exact right moment whenever the plot demands it.
General Hospital spoilers indicate that Brennan’s body may not stay hidden in the dirt for much longer now that Outback is completely obsessed with the location.
Will Cody be the one to officially alert the authorities to Brennan’s body, or will he pick up a shovel and uncover Drew and Ava’s dark crime on his own?
