Is Britt's Research on GH About Huntington's Disease?
General Hospital brought Britt Westbourne back in the most mysterious way. For months, viewers have tried to figure out what Professor Henry Dalton was working on. Being on the WSB radar doesn't just happen for no reason, so our interest was piqued. Now that we know Britt is also involved in some way, there are even more questions than answers.
Is Britt Working on a Cure For Huntington's?
Britt's (Kelly Thiebaud) link to Dalton (Daniel Goddard) has us questioning whether her research deals with the fact that she was experiencing signs and symptoms of Huntington's disease before she 'died.' Dalton was flagged by the WSB and tested on animals in California before being transferred to Port Charles. Why he ended up at PCU was unclear, but given Britt's home there, the pieces are starting to come together.
After learning she carried the gene for Huntington's, Britt was worried about the quality of her life. She inherited it from her father, Fasion (Anders Hove), and when her hands got shaky and other signs popped up, Jason (Steve Burton) became her confidante. Her reaction to the paperwork she received via courier from Dalton suggested she wasn't pleased with his work so far. Having it tied to genetics or a cure for the disease would make sense, but the part where the WSB is concerned is still murky.
Will the WSB or Jason Find Britt first?
Now that Jason has an idea that he saw Britt (and he did) get on a plane, he is determined to find out whether she is alive. He, of all people, knows all about being resurrected from the dead. He's been 'dead' twice over the last decade. After his conversation with Liesl (Kathleen Gati), he isn't convinced that Britt is dead. Liesl did a good job covering if she knows that Britt is alive, but given that she's been away from Port Charles, we suspect she might know the truth.
The WSB is supposed to be the best of the best, but after the courier's tracker was lost, they aren't much closer to learning what Dalton is up to. However, with their extensive resources, Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) may be quicker than Stone Cold. What do you think? Who will solve this case first?
