Long presumed dead since 2018 — his brain harvested for science after shooting his son Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) — Faison’s twisted genius could explain Britt’s faked death and her captivity at the Five Poppies Hotel.
With Nathan’s recent return adding eerie parallels, speculation runs wild that Faison survived through black-market tech or a body double, now orchestrating from the dark to reclaim his children. Is Britt’s “Huntington’s” a Faison-forged lie to control her, and will Nathan’s amnesia mask his own brainwashing?
Faison’s Survival: A Mad Genius Unburied
Faison’s “death” was theatrical — his brain “donated” after Nathan’s shooting — but soaps thrive on revivals, and fans see his intellect preserved in a lab, powering experiments that warped Nathan and ensnared Britt.
Perhaps WSB rogues or Professor Henry ‘Hank’ Dalton (Daniel Goddard) kept Faison’s mind alive via AI or cloning, using it to manipulate from afar.
His obsession with legacy fits: faking Britt’s death kept her compliant in Pascal’s (Marc Forget) lab, where she slaved for “meds” to manage a possibly bogus Huntington’s diagnosis.
Nathan’s crash and memory loss? A Faison-orchestrated “homecoming” to test his brainwashed son.
Faison’s Control Games as Cruel
Britt’s Five Poppies nightmare — forced lab work for healthcare — screams of Faison’s influence, with her “symptoms” and faked death a masterful con to isolate her.
Fans theorize Faison, alive in some cryogenic form, blackmailed her into silence, using her skills for his schemes while dangling a “cure.”
Her odd return behavior — pushing Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) away and snapping at him about Rocco Falconeri’s (Finn Carr) name — could be residual control, like implanted suggestions.
If Nathan’s amnesia ties to the same tech, their sibling reunion might be Faison’s trap, pulling them back into his web.
Is Nathan’s Return a Test?
Paevey’s Nathan West comeback, confirmed by DNA but blank on his past, hints at Faison’s hand — turning him into a potential weapon.
Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) joy could turn to horror if Faison reveals himself, demanding loyalty from Nathan and Britt, or unleashing chaos. Fans on Facebook are freaking: “Faison alive? Britt’s doomed!”
His experiments might link to Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota), blending mob and mad science. Will Nathan and Britt break free, or fall under Faison’s spell?
Fans are divided: some crave Faison’s villainous return for thrills, others fear it darkens Nathan’s arc. Will Cesar’s grip tighten, or snap? Sound off in the comments, and keep checking back for more GH news and spoilers.
