General Hospital spoilers hint the truth about Drew Cain’s captivity may take a while to emerge, but fans already have plenty of theories. Helena Cassadine may have been involved, even though she is believed to have died years ago.
Helena Cassadine Held Drew Captive Before
There would undoubtedly be a reason for Helena to be interested in Drew if she were still alive, given what she previously did to him. General Hospital fans have speculated since Helena’s death that it might not be real. There have been some hints and teasers to that effect on and off over the years, but nothing concrete proving she’s still alive.
Helena not only held Drew captive for years but also coordinated the plot with Peter. General Hospital viewers know Peter initiated Drew’s disappearance two years ago. However, fans may remember Peter’s agitation when his contact revealed the plane had gone down and authorities presumed Drew was dead. That hadn’t been a part of Peter’s plan. Drew was not plucked from the ocean water by anyone.
There Are Other Possibilities
Granted, it’s entirely possible Helena didn’t orchestrate this. There are many other plausible possibilities, some more probable than others. SomeGeneral Hospital viewers wonder if Jerry Jacks could be behind this. Jerry has been absent from the screen for some time, but his fans often express their desire to see him back.
It was recently revealed that Victor Cassadine is still alive to be “The Boss” here too. Charles Shaughnessy now plays Victor, and General Hospital spoilers hint he’ll be around for a while. They are tapping a soap veteran like Shaughnessy to play Victor, and All My Children veteran to play Drew signals significant storyline developments ahead. Victor is a frontrunner in this mystery; viewers should think so.
As soon as Peter August “died,”General Hospital fans theorized he was still alive. That was recently revealed to be true, and he’s evil enough to be involved. So, there has been speculation he’s “The Boss” keeping Drew away from Port Charles or at least involved. Additionally, Nurse Chloe is in prison and has only ever had a connection to Peter. Could it be Peter’s mysterious associate or partner heading up this effort, and will this person be someone viewers know?
Fans think that there may be another option. Cassandra’s been off the canvas for a while too, but she’s referenced here and there. It’s also possible she has ties to Cyrus Renault, which could somehow tie to Drew’s captivity.
The Mystery Hostage
Drew has realized he is not the only person being held at this foreign prison. A woman is there too, and General Hospital spoilers tease this is something significant. Helena may be alive, or perhaps she is being held captive. Hayden Barnes could be the one. Soap Hub mentioned Holly Sutton as a possibility, too, since it’s known someone’s holding her hostage, and that’s been a loose end for a while.
