Anna has lived through enough experiences for three people on the ABC soap, yet she sensed something was wrong this week.
Anna Knew Something Was Wrong
Anna felt a twitch in her stomach, that familiar instinct that arises before danger reveals itself-she attempted to dismiss it, attributing it to ghosts and past trauma, but the sensation persisted.
When she finally confessed to Jason that she couldn’t shake the thought of Cesar Faison possibly being alive, fear echoed in her voice. Jason suggested it was merely enemies exploiting the one vulnerability she never completely escaped.
Anna nearly accepted his explanation…until she got into her car, took a deep breath, and a hand covered her mouth.
Suddenly, she found herself chained to a chair in a grimy cell, where a voice emerged from a speaker with a Danish accent, mechanical distortion, the entire Faison nightmare reconstructed from the ground up.
That’s Where Things Started Getting Interesting
Anna’s anxiety about Faison possibly being alive resurfaces just before her kidnapping. Jason thinks their foes are using Faison’s memory to unsettle her, but the altered, Danish-accented voice in that bunker indicates something much more deliberate.
Whoever has recreated Faison’s voice understands precisely how to hit Anna’s most sensitive spot-GH has a long history of memory manipulation, DVX technology, disguises, and memory transfer.
This makes a digital version of Faison-an “uploaded” version of Faison created from surveillance recordings, journals, and DVX tests could enable a villain to manipulate her without ever entering the room.
If GH embraces this twist, Anna isn’t confronting a revived man; she’s battling a programmed echo designed to exploit everything Faison ever was.
Anna Never Recovered From Faison’s Years Of Torture And Fear
Every significant transition in Anna’s adult life has been overshadowed, distorted, or completely exploded by Faison. This man didn’t merely fixate on her; he reshaped his entire perspective around possessing her. Master, tormentor, stalker, puppeteer… the labels no longer fit neatly.
He impersonated Duke Lavery (Ian Buchanan) and abducted Robin Scorpio-Drake (Kimberly McCullough); at one point, he attempted to present a kidnapped child as a perverse “gift.” He etched himself into her narrative in ways that are meant to never fully fade away.
Anna’s And Faison’s Lives-A Double Helix
Anna’s existence and Faison’s existence weren’t merely parallel; they were intertwined like a double helix, corrupted and knotted. Even his demise — confirmed, analyzed, documented-didn’t erase his presence; the DVX, The Cassadines, Liesl Obrecht’s (Kathleen Gati) unwavering loyalty…Faison’s influence remained long after the body was sealed away.
So when Anna finds herself bound to a chair and hears that voice- or something resembling it-it’s anything but subtle. It’s as if someone is delving into the deepest recesses of her mind and flipping the most ancient switch.
And if GH aimed to resurrect a version of him without actually bringing back a corpse-there’s already a template.
