General Hospital: Ava Reels in Drew and Takes Charge!

General Hospital fans know Ava Jerome (Maura West) is stuck with Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) right now because they are in this Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) mess together. But very soon we could see Ava getting even closer to Drew, like a lot more closer because she’s got an agenda to benefit herself.

Today we’re going to talk about how Ava might seduce Drew to further her own agenda.

General Hospital: Ava’s after Sonny

All right, so we know Ava is furious with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) right now for taking Avery Corinthos (Scarola twins) out of school without consulting her. Ava marched right over to Sonny’s and she confronted him. Ava ranted that this is the last time that Sonny will go behind her back when it comes to their daughter Avery.

Now, we know Ava originally teamed up with Drew because she wanted his help because of her daughter. Ava’s tired of Sonny treating her like garbage, which is accurate. But also deserved. And Ava wants to make sure that Sonny never takes Avery away from her again and that Sonny doesn’t turn their daughter against her. So, Ava knows Drew is ruthless and he’s got powerful contacts and Ava needs somebody in her corner who is dangerous.

And now Drew and Ava are bound together because of this sticky situation with them drugging Jack Brennan and what they assume was his accidental drowning death. Ava has assured Drew if she goes down for Jack’s death then Drew is going to go down with her. You know that saying that a friend will help you move and a good friend will help you move a body. Despite Ava and Drew not being friends before, they are forced together. Because of their mutually assured destruction if the Jack stuff gets out.

But it’s also very complicated because Ava’s also angry that Drew framed Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) for Jack’s disappearance. But bottom line, Ava needs Drew to help take Sonny down. And Ava will prioritize her daughter Avery over her friendship with Nina. Because don’t forget, she induced labor and stole Avery from Ava. So, she did forgive Nina. But Ava’s also got to protect Drew because he is her best shot to get Avery away from Sonny and shut down the way he treats her.

General Hospital: Ava Blames Carly

So, instead of telling Willow Tait Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen) that Drew framed her mom, Ava pointed Willow at Carly Spencer (Laura Wright). And yeah, it’s accurate. Carly did rat out Nina to Agent William Baines (Alimi Ballard). And I’m sure that Carly knows that Nina wasn’t capable of kidnapping or doing something violent to Jack. But Carly just couldn’t resist being petty to Nina because she hates her and she always will and is dating Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), Nina’s ex-husband. So the good news is that Willow will go after Carly and Ava will enjoy that. Because she also hates Carly.

So, now I think Ava is going to get even closer to Drew and winds up seducing him. And the reason I think so is because of something Ava said to Drew really recently when Ava got that tick on her. Remember she went over to see Drew and told him to strip. And it sounded sketchy. But then Ava said he needed to check himself all over for tick. And Drew claimed he’s not interested in Ava that way when she said strip.

She clapped back at Drew and said, “If I was trying to seduce you, you’d already be naked and grateful.” I laughed out loud at that line and I feel like it was foreshadowing. So, we may see Ava and Drew heat up. But I don’t think Ava’s going to go after Drew. Because he’s irresistible. I mean, his body’s hot. But his personality is not. I think if Ava seduces Drew, it’ll be calculated and for Ava’s own benefit. Getting in Drew’s bed will give Ava greater access to him and to his house and she needs to be as close as possible to Drew to keep pushing him about destroying Sonny.

General Hospital: Ava’s Bad-Boy History

We know Ava wants Sonny out of her life as soon as possible to ensure she never loses Avery. And this would not be the 1st time Ava has used her sexuality to get what she wants. But I will say usually when Ava gets involved with a guy, she is looking for something or falls into something. She had feelings for Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth), also for Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig). Of course, Sonny was a one-off, hateful one night stand, and Paul Hornsby was a weird fling.

But other relationships saw Ava falling head over heels, like with Griffin Munro (Matt Cohen), like with Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Lindstrom) when he was pretending to be Kevin Collins (also Jon Lindstrom). Ava and Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss) started out sketchy, then they fell in love. But her last relationship was more transactional. That was Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst). So, I think Ava getting sexual with Drew could be carefully calculated as part of an agenda.

General Hospital: Ava Needs to Keep Drew Close

Also, remember Nina warned Ava about getting involved with Drew. We saw Nina asked if Ava was romantically involved with Drew and Ava seemed appalled. But that could have been another piece of foreshadowing info that Drew and Ava are going to hit the sheets soon.

And not only will it help getting her getting closer to Drew with her Sonny situation. But Ava might also be hoping to get some evidence on Drew so she can protect herself if this Jack thing blows up and if he turns on her. Because thanks to that little dog, obviously Jack’s body is going to be found and then Drew and Ava may really get paranoid and there’s the chance that 1 of them could turn on the other on General Hospital.

As I said before, Ava made it clear to Drew he better not turn on her. Because if Ava goes down, so does Drew. But I can see Ava wanting an insurance policy. If she can find something to hold as leverage over Drew, that’ll protect her in case he ever considers throwing Ava under the bus. And in fact, the seduction plan maybe spur of the moment.

General Hospital: Ava Searches for Insurance Policy

We know that there are more scenes that have been filmed of Drew and Ava at his place, them together there also. So, we might see Ava sneaking into Drew’s house to poke around looking for some dirt on him as insurance blackmail leverage. And then Drew catches Ava and she may pivot and pretend she was there to seduce Drew because she just can’t resist. You know, Ava could tell him she just couldn’t stay away. Drew’s been locked in for a while, so he’s not had anybody in his bed.

And his ego is so big he may think Ava’s drawn to his muscles and manliness. I’d like to see Ava find some evidence against Drew to implicate him without implicating herself. So, this seduction may come into it. And maybe if she finds a way to tie Drew’s hands, and I mean that literally, maybe to the headboard. But also metaphorically. You know, I think Ava could do naughty things to Drew and convince him to totally be on her side.

General Hospital: Sonny Flips His Lid

And as an added bonus, Drew being with Ava would aggravate Sonny to no end. He hates Drew and he hates Ava. And I’m sure Sonny would think if Drew and Ava are together, they’re conspiring against him. Ric would probably agree and they’d be right. But also, sleeping with Drew and acting like they’re dating would be a great cover story.

Because if Ava and Drew look like they were in some kind of situationship, then it wouldn’t be surprising for people to see them out and about together. If Ava and Drew aren’t dating, there’s no reason for them to be chatting together. Lately, when people have seen Ava with Drew, they’re like, “What are they doing together?” Because it looks suspicious.

If they’re together looking involved, looking sexy, then people will assume that Ava’s just made a terrible relationship choice with Drew. And vice versa, we’ll assume that they’re shagging and that’s it. And if Ava does wind up seducing Drew to get him to do everything she wants, there’s always the chance that Ava could develop feelings for him. I’m not sure that Drew would reciprocate because his heart seems ice cold at this point, but Ava tends to fall for bad guys.
