Who is Jenna Ortega?
Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth) had been seeing Dr. Andre Maddox (Anthony Montgomery) and shared with him childhood memories of an imaginary friend named Andy, according to Soap Central. Over time, Franco began to realize that Andy was an actual person that he grew up with. Andre suggested that Franco keep the knowledge to himself. Years ago, Franco believed himself to be Jason Morgan’s twin. When he heard about the two Jasons, he suggested that they look to Andre for answers.
When confronted, Andre admitted that he was an associate of Dr. Klein (Gene Farber) who worked at the Russian clinic Patient 6 escaped from. Andre explained that he conducted memory research for the World Security Bureau (WSB) in an effort to help patients with Alzheimers or dementia (via Soaps in Depth). He created technology that could read and copy someone’s memories and allow them to be transferred, but the WSB shut the program down due to ethical concerns. Later, Andre had been contacted by Dr. Klein and asked to perform the memory swapping procedure on two of his patients — Jason Morgan and Drew Cain. Drew was ultimately implanted with Jason’s memories; Drew’s memories were placed on a flash drive.
Andre was also able to confirm Patient 6 was the real Jason. He offered to restore Drew’s memories using the flash drive but warned that the procedure might cause the man to lose the memories he’d made since arriving in Port Charles. Not wanting to risk it, Drew decided to remain as he was and move forward with his new (true) identity.
