For many General Hospital viewers, it’s been rather shocking (and difficult) to watch Drew (Cameron Mathison) morph into the most infuriating man in Port Charles. Heck, there’s an argument no one in all of daytime is more loathed than the congressman. Drew has gone through such a drastic change that we decided to look back and focus on the moment his character shifted, in hopes of trying to figure out what happened.
Pinpointing the occasion, we surmised that Drew changed in the aftermath of him being stabbed in prison while he was serving a sentence to spare Carly (Laura Wright) from getting locked up. The shift in his demeanor was slight at the time, shown really in how he interacted with Nina (Cynthia Watros) upon his release from confinement and his insistence that Scout (Cosette Abinante) attend a private school. However, Drew upped the ante when he carried on in an affair with Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and tried to blackmail everyone in town.
