For a time, Drew believed he was Jason because Jason’s memories had been implanted in his brain.
During his time at Aurora, Peter tried to form a relationship with Anna.
Maxie was pregnant with Nathan’s baby, and eventually she and Peter became lovers.
But that’s only the beginning.
Peter helped Shiloh escape prison, and framed Sam McCall for the crime.
Alex was dark and twisted, and Peter felt there was no escaping that heritage.
Peter’s crimes only got worse from there.
He murdered Franco Baldwin and framed Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) for that as well.
A furious Finn tossed Peter down a flight of stairs and thought he’d killed the villain.
However, Peter survived and went on a rampage.
He hired a bogus nurse to take care of Maxie Jones, who was now pregnant with his child.
The nurse was to induce labor and steal the baby for Peter.
When that failed and Maxie put the baby in hiding, Peter stalked her.
Sonny saved the women and Peter escaped (viaSoaps She Knows).
The nefarious Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) was working with Peter August to facilitate this.
Maxie’s mother Felicia Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) and Anna Devane were hot on their trail.
Eventually, they cornered Peter, and Felicia clubbed him with a tire iron, putting him near death.
“It needed to be bigger.
It needed to be spectacular,” said O’Connor.
“We always knew the final moment had to be between Anna and Peter.
There was no other consideration.
The story started with Anna and it had to end with Anna.”
