The announcement over who received the coveted Chief of Staff position will drive Robin (Kimberly McCullogh) over the edge on General Hospital.

General Hospital: Monday, Jan. 20, 2014

It was previously believed that the top position at the hospital would be given to either Robin, her husband Patrick (Jason Thompson), Silas (Michael Easton), or Britt (Kelly Thiebauld). However, in a surprise twist, Britt's psychotic mother, Dr. Olbrecht (Kathleen Gati) got the job.

Because Olbrecht kidnapped Robin and kept her away from her family for nearly two years, she especially will not take the news well, and in a preview clip for the Tuesday, Jan. 21 episode, she will attack Olbrecht.

"Coming back here was a mistake, I'm going to kill you!" she shouted as she moved to strangle Olbrecht in the clip.

After she is presumably pulled away from Olbrecht, Robin will then enlist the help of her parents, Anna (Finola Hughes) and Robert (Tristan Rogers), to take the doctor down once and for all.

"We've got a big problem," Anna said to Robert. "It's Olbrecht."

How Olbrecht's daughter, Britt, receives the news isn't clear, though her own bad behaviors may soon catch up to her as well.

Britt previously stole Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Lulu's (Emmee Rylan) embryos and implanted herself with them. Her son, Ben, is actually the couple's. The fertility struggles have caused the couple to split up, because Lulu blames Dante. She is till unaware of Britt's involvement, and has placed no blame on her as a result.

"It's not like she stole my last chance at having a child," Lulu said to Nikolas (Tyler Christopher) in the clip.

If Britt's secret gets out however, that could all change.
