General Hospital Fans Think Drew Was Brainwashed in Prison

Fans of General Hospital are proposing an intriguing theory to account for the sudden change in Drew Cain’s character. Known earlier as a man with a strong sense of right and wrong, Drew’s recent descent into morally questionable acts such as blackmail, manipulation, and emotional attacks has left fans puzzled. However, they argue that this transformation didn’t occur spontaneously. Instead, many suspect that Drew might have been subjected to mind control while in prison.

General Hospital fan theory reveals how Drew became evil

Drew’s ordeal following trauma is something well-known. Earlier, Victor Cassadine had abducted him, imprisoning him at a foreign research center where he underwent experiments and faced mental manipulation. Despite being rescued by Jason Morgan and others, the deep emotional wounds have left lasting impacts on him.

Upon his comeback to Port Charles, Drew worked hard to reestablish his life, reuniting with his daughter Scout and accepting blame for Carly Spencer’s stock market scandal, resulting in a return to prison. While imprisoned at Pentonville, Drew was viciously attacked by fellow inmates, requiring hospitalization. Despite an early release, the ominous gloom that now shrouds his ethical choices hints at more than just trauma. Given recent events on General Hospital, viewers have begun to speculate that someone may have influenced or even mind-controlled Drew during this period.

As a devoted follower, I observed on Facebook that Drew isn’t just unhinged; rather, he might have been subjected to brainwashing once more. Given his past ordeal – being abducted, having all memories wiped out, and undergoing brainwashing not once but twice, it’s plausible that during his imprisonment, he was subtly influenced again.

Following the broadcast of the episode on July 23rd, fans have been keeping a keen eye on events. Interestingly, Willow, who was involved in kidnapping Sasha and Michael’s baby in the past, has shown no reluctance in backing Drew’s plan to extort him. When Portia unveiled Drew’s plot to falsely accuse Michael of being an opioid addict, Willow stated unequivocally that she would go to any lengths to regain custody of her children.

As a devoted fan, I find myself questioning whether Willow could have played a role in Sasha’s sudden departure from Port Charles with the baby. This fresh theory seems to revisit Drew’s harrowing past, which might explain his recent transformation and potentially pave the way for redemption, if the writers choose to explore this path.
