Drew Cain’s consuming desire for vengeance threatens to tear Port Charles apart, setting off a dangerous chain reaction that could leave an innocent man dead and send shockwaves through the entire town. Fueled by a bitter obsession to make Sonny Corinthos finally pay for his past crimes, Drew appears ready to cross lines he can never uncross. However, in his rush to bring down two of his biggest enemies at once, Drew’s calculated scheme may include crucial miscalculations that carry devastating real-world consequences.
Drew’s Obsession with Sonny Drives a Reckless Plot
According to Sonny’s fall preview information, his enemies are preparing to use his dark past against him. Even though Sonny may be out of the mob life, his foes are determined to ensure his lethal reputation comes back to haunt him. That tactic fits Drew’s current mindset perfectly, given how obsessed he has become with making Sonny answer for his many past transgressions. Drew deeply feels that Sonny has gotten away with his crimes for far too long, making a relentless takedown his ultimate priority.
That burning hatred makes it entirely reasonable to assume Drew might be the mastermind behind the plan to put Jenz Sidwell in grave danger while pointing the finger directly at Sonny. Drew loathes Sidwell just as intensely, meaning he certainly won’t mind if Sidwell suffers in the process. After all, Sidwell was the monster who supplied the paralytic doses to Willow Tait, leaving Drew trapped in his own body, unable to speak or move for agonizing months. It was Sidwell’s sadistic idea to use that paralysis to keep Drew in line and force Willow into his Congressional seat instead. For Drew, prison simply isn’t punishment enough, making a double-edged plot against Sidwell and Sonny the ultimate form of revenge.
Curtis Ashford Becomes Tragic Collateral Damage
In the preview video for the week of September 21-25, the dark reality of this scheme begins to take shape inside Pentonville. One of the attackers explicitly warns Curtis Ashford not to be in his cell after lunch. Drew may have personally ordered this warning in a desperate effort to keep Curtis out of harm’s way, but the situation quickly spirals out of control.
Despite the advance warning, the plot goes horribly wrong, and Curtis ends up critically injured in the brutal violence. Curtis will soon be rushed to the ICU in a fight for his life, serving as tragic collateral damage in a war that wasn’t his. Once the horrifying news breaks, Drew may coldly decide that Curtis’s life-threatening injuries are merely a small price to pay, as long as both Sidwell and Sonny endure the agonizing downfall he believes they deserve.
Leaked Scripts Point the Finger at Sonny as Dante Steps Aside
The fallout from the Pentonville attack will quickly reach the highest levels of law enforcement. Thanks to leaked General Hospital scripts, fans know that Dante Falconeri will officially recuse himself from investigating the case due to the glaring conflict of interest regarding his father’s suspected involvement.
The evidence left behind will prove to be damning. Paperwork and proof will indicate that the men connected to the brutal prison assault are directly on Sonny’s payroll. This trail of evidence will leave ADA Justine Turner deeply concerned that Sonny broke his explicit promise not to go after Sidwell. It seems highly likely that Drew is pulling all the strings from behind the scenes, meticulously crafting the evidence to ensure Sonny looks indisputably guilty to the law.
General Hospital spoilers suggest that Sonny will inevitably be cleared of these false accusations sooner or later. As the dust settles and the truth behind the Pentonville chaos begins to unravel, will Drew be exposed as the true villain behind this deadly setup, or will his relentless quest for payback cost Curtis his life before anyone uncovers the truth?
