General Hospital puts Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison) and Ava Jerome (Maura West) working together against their enemies. So, they’ve been spending a lot of time together lately and they are getting closer.
And I suspect that those lines may blur soon and then Drew and Ava may become something a little more than just partners in crime. We’re going to talk about how Drew and Ava Jerome might go from being revenge buddies to bed buddies.
General Hospital: Drew & Ava’s Immediate Chemistry
So, from the moment Ava started chatting up Drew up at the Metro Court, I had a distinct feeling that these two were going to end up teaming up together and that manifested. Ava opened up to Drew about how difficult it is co-parenting with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
And of course, she has all those worries that he will turn Avery Corinthos (Scarola twins) against her. And Drew told Ava he was pretty much going through the same thing. Drew was worried about Scout when he was locked up because he feared that Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) was filling Scout’s head with negative things about him.
Plus, Ava is probably the only person that seemed happy to see Drew on his feet and fully recovered and genuinely mean it. So Ava and Drew did some bonding and Ava was happy to hear about Drew’s big plans to take down Sonny.
Drew & Ava’s Plan in Motion on GH
That’s something that Ava is totally on board with. The thing is Drew’s got a lot more enemies than just Sonny. And Drew, I think, is going to try and use Ava to help him with all of these. So this week, Drew and Ava’s plans heat up. And we’ve got Drew telling Ava there’s an obstacle he needs removed.
Drew also tells Ava that he needs her to keep Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) busy while he searches his hotel room. So, I’m curious to see if Drew will admit to her what he’s searching for. Viewers know Jack’s got blackmail info, evidence of Drew doing dodgy campaign fraud stuff. And because of what Jack has, Drew can’t get revenge on Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) for shooting him and then drugging him and keeping him locked away all those months.
General Hospital: Drew’s Revenge Mission
And Drew really wants revenge. The General Hospital weekly promo shows what looks like Ava drugging Jack’s drink. And what’s interesting about Ava drugging Jack at this time is that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) was just raging at Jack for threatening Willow, which is kind of insane because Nina wasn’t happy with Willow.
Nina told Willow to destroy that recording of Jack because Nina’s worried that this will put Willow in danger. But of course, her daughter won’t listen. So Nina went to Jack trying to get him to back down, but he’s actually annoyed at Nina for defending Willow. And Jack warned Nina, “Take a step back from Willow.” Jack has a good read on Willow, who is a constant source of chaos.
But of course, Nina got angry at Jack because she’s incapable of hearing the ugly truth about her daughter, Willow. Instead, Nina demanded that Jack get Willow what she needs, which is evidence against Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson). And Nina said if he doesn’t then Jack will be the one who’s destroyed.
General Hospital: Ava & Drew Start Scheming
And Drew overheard this threat. And so he may assume if Jack realizes he’s been drugged and his room was rifled that he might think it was Willow or maybe even Nina. I expect Drew might think he can fly under the radar and get away with it and hopefully steal the evidence that he needs. Ava’s one concern about playing revenge games with Drew is that she does not want to lose her best friend Nina.
And Ava may worry that Nina would be upset with her for targeting her boyfriend Jack. However, with Nina and Jack arguing and on the outs, Ava may think, “Okay, it’s fine.” She might even think she’s doing Nina a favor by helping Drew with Jack since they seem doomed. Anyway, we also have Ava feeling slighted this week. And it might be these feelings are cropping up with her and Drew.
So, Ava may be upset that Drew wants her to help with Jack instead of them focusing on Sonny. After this week, Drew and Ava get much closer because they will have pulled off their first caper together. Whether it goes well or not, they’ve still done it. They’ll bond over it. And I could absolutely see things turning not romantic, but maybe into something else. Maybe something with sparks and sizzle between Drew and Ava.
Ava & Drew Heat Up on GH
We know Drew was going to need a romantic interest eventually. We even recently did a video on it speculating on who he might end up with. And Ava was one of the top of the list. She’s currently single and has been since her new fling, Ethan Lovett (Christian Howard), ran out of Port Charles. Ava and Ethan slept together, but then he abruptly left the country when Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) popped up in town because he’s scared of him. And in fact, Ethan was on a date with Ava when he saw Hudson and he ran to Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) and hopped on the first flight out of town and didn’t even call her. So, Ava’s feeling pretty salty about Ethan running.
Meanwhile, Drew is freshly divorced from his murderous little wife, Willow. So I think them teaming up for strategic things could open the door for Drew and Ava to hit the sheets and maybe eventually getting some feelings involved. Plus, let’s be real. Who else would date Drew or Ava? They are both town pariahs without a lot of hot romantic prospects.
You know, for a while, Drew was a really good guy, a Navy Seal, respected and beloved, but ever since he went to prison to protect Carly Spencer (Laura Wright), he’s been a true villain. And on the reverse side, Ava started out a true villain and has gradually gotten to be much less villainous. They’re kind of meeting in the middle where they’re the same amount of villain at this point. And with that in mind, I feel like Drew needs somebody who is as conniving and devious as he is.
General Hospital: Ava & Drew a Perfect Match
And Ava certainly fits that. Drew needs a partner and he is persona non grata with everybody else. So he might be working with Ava because he has no other options, but they still may click. I think there is real potential for Drew and Ava to become a sort of evil power couple in Port Charles. That could be really interesting.
You know, she and Drew could cause some serious damage to anybody who dares to cross them. I mean, Ava and Drew individually are pretty volatile, but together they could be a tangible threat. I’m sure that half of Port Charles would freak if they saw Ava and Drew publicly canoodling.
We know Sonny and Carly would definitely flip their lids if Ava and Drew got together since both are their toxic exes. Plus, Nina may wind up furious with Ava, not necessarily for targeting Jack, but just because of how much Nina hates Drew and hates everything he’s done to Willow.
General Hospital: Nina & Ava’s Friendship at Risk
I mean, this could seriously threaten Ava and Nina’s long-standing friendship. But I don’t even know if that would stop Ava. And honestly, their friendship has faced worst things. Plus, Ava was dating Nina’s ex-husband, Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst), and Nina didn’t seem to mind that too much.
So maybe she actually won’t care if Ava winds up with Drew as long as he’s leaving her and Willow alone. Not that he plans to do that. So Nina, I think would be unbothered up until the point Drew starts targeting Willow.
And this could also, by the way, end the Alexis and Ava truce. So I think Alexis would be furious with Ava if she started canoodling, dating, sleeping with whatever with Drew. And Alexis might just wash her hands of Ava.
So, this week we have Drew and Ava formalizing their wicked partnership when she helps him target Jack. And from there we may see Ava and Drew doing their next batch of scheming in private. And if he is alone with Ava now that Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) has moved out.
I could see her asking if Drew has taken all of his parts for a test drive since he recovered from his ordeal. A couple of martinis and bada bing bada boom. And we’ve got Ava inviting Drew to her bed and from there maybe they’ll catch feelings.
