I never could wrap my head around DrewAs drugging scenario.
Presumably, he wanted to keep Brennan away. But, it seems to me his first destination would be his bed, if he started feeling drowsy.
Brennan appeared to be feeling more than just drowsy. He was stumbling
around and very disoriented.
I think Drew expected him to pass out and finished him off in the pool. I think he disabled the cameras way in advance. He was always strong. And having abandoned his cane, (which he probably never needed), was able to carry and drag Brennan to the pool.
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Drew didn't drown Brennan (or
whomever it was floating in the pool). Drew was too focused on searching Brennan's room for blackmail material to hunt Brennan down, wait until
he passed out, then drag him to the pool and throw him in. He couldn't
have known where Brennan would pass out, and it might have happened in
an area full of witnesses.
It probably *is* Brennan floating in the pool, but until we see the
person's face, we can't be 100% certain it's him and not some poor
drunken schlemiel who got lost on the way back to his room from the bar
and fell in. Tho what the writers' game would be in misleading us like
that would be anyone's guess. (BTW, in my state there is a law requiring
public pools, including pools in private hotels, spas, and etc, to be
locked down when the pool is closed for swimming and is unsupervised.
I'll bet there's a similar law in NY state, too. And yet....)
Still on the subject of the body floating in the pool...try letting out
a blood curdling scream without reflexively gasping a lungful of air
first. Can't be done. Yet Charlotte managed it. More than once.
Underwater. Yes, she's a Cassadine, so...vamp. But even a vamp, who is
undead and does not breathe air, would underwater, end up swallowing the
water that rushed in the minute they opened their mouth. I've never
tried it, but I can imagine that it's not possible to scream bloody
murder while choking.
Dante is quite the social gadfly. Looks like a working weekday, but he is holding court at the metro court.
So were Chase, Brennan, Ava and Britt. And all were day drinking. Except
Britt, until she went up to the restaurant and started downing alcoholic concoctions with Illegally Sitting blah blah blah blah Willow P Tait,
who also has a job, tho you'd never know it.
