Remember when General Hospital’s Willow was something of a wallflower? Well, those days are clearly gone as the increasingly-manic mom proves herself a master manipulator willing to do anything if it means regaining custody of her kids!

But more than a few viewers were stunned when Willow blackmailed Alexis by threatening to prevent her from spending time with grandchild Scout. In fact, many stormed social media to say that it’s time for Alexis (and the writers) to remember who she is… or at least once was!

As Caroline H pleaded on X, “Can we get Natasha [back] please?’

For those who might not remember, Alexis’ birth name is Princess Natasha Alexandra Mikkosonva Cassadine. And there was a time when the attorney had absolutely no problem going to the dark side once inhabited by her notorious father, Mikkos Cassadine.

As many have said on social media, Natasha wouldn’t put up with the crap Willow’s dishing out of late.

While Willow’s portrayer, Katelyn MacMullen, admitted she’s enjoying getting a chance to play her alter ego’s dark side, she also knows “eventually, this is all going to come back to bite her!”

Meanwhile, although Carly would probably love nothing more than to see Michael’s ex run out of town, portrayer Laura Wright definitely wouldn’t agree. “I love that we get to tell fun stories that have characters who are flawed,” she admitted during our recent chat.

“I get wanting to wring the neck of a character,” she continued, “but that’s what we love about our flawed characters!”

That said, viewers still wanna see a showdown between Dark Willow and Natasha. As WhoKnowsTV said on X, “Natasha should look straight in Willow’s eyes and say, ‘Girl, you have the nerve to bloackmail the daughter of Mikkos Cassadine?’”

Where will this madness end? “There are big twists ahead,” warned MacMullen. “Even I’ve been surprised by what’s in the scripts!”
