Maxie Jones actually bought a clue on General Hospital and decided she couldn’t be with Austin Gatlin-Holt after finding out he’d blackmailed Damian Spinelli.
He was lying to her and exploiting her friends — something Maxie didn’t recognize about Peter August until it was too late.
But is Maxie wrong to conflate the two men? Should she have given Austin another chance?

Maxie (Kirsten Storms) should have given Austin (Roger Howarth) more of a chance to explain, 12% of the audience insists.
He had his reasons, and stupid and selfish though they may be, if anyone understands about stupid and selfish decisions, it’s Maxie.

Maxie may have been right, but she was way behind the times, according to 26% of you. This relationship was dead on arrival, and Maxie should have pulled the plug months ago.

Maxie dumped Austin for going behind her back to exploit Spinelli (Bradford Anderson), and she’s got your complete support.
It also didn’t escape your notice that she’s been bumping into Cody Bell (Josh Kelly).
Now, of course, he’s an even bigger liar than Austin. But at least we see the spark between them.
Is Cody Peter 2.0? Maybe. Let’s see how long it takes Maxie to figure this one out.
