General Hospital: Josslyn Jack is the best of the WSB?

On General Hospital, Josslyn Jacks did what no other agent could do, she found and took down Valentin, does that maker her the best the WSB has?

What Happened on General Hospital

It's hard when a character undergoes a massive career shift, like Josslyn (Eden McCoy) ditching college ( please, go back) for the international intrigue and mystery world of the WSB, only to perform like a rookie, that would have much more oversight.

For someone supposedly training for international espionage, you would expect a range of skills, that matches the jobbut instead we see an amateur agent taking down the best of the best, a master spy. This is rather unlikely and watching the scene back, Valentin had every opportunity to instead take her down.

Josslyn has become a carbon copy of her mother, Carly (Laura Wright), but without any of the presence and, well quite honestly, any of the many things that made Carly a powerhouse. The character has this self-righteous attitude that makes it impossible to actually root for her success. Whether she is confronting a villain or discovering that her mother is dating a criminal, the disappointment was real when she took Valentin down...how on god's flat earth did that happen.

The WSB needs better agents

Josslyn is currently fully read in on the "Five Poppies" mission under the guidance of Jack (Chris McKenna), and with the revelation that Jason (Confirmed by Steve Burton) is set to take a temporary exit from Port Charles, things couldn’t be more important for Josslyn. There is some heavy speculation that she might actually go missing alongside Jason, which would certainly shatter Carly's world, and honestly, if she is going to anchor these major plot shifts, she needs to bring more to the table than just a gun.

Speaking of Carly, how awesome was that kiss scene with Valentin (James Patrick Stewart)? I for one loved that moment of vulverability and I'm here for it. Those two looked great togther and there's the none too small matter of their children would have GREAT hair.

It is high time for the story to move past the "mini-Carly" tropes. We need a WSB agent who actually looks like she can handle the pressure. Not fold like an origami plane.
