07-24-2017 (Monday) Shots Fired

Dante tells Nathan to go home and get some rest; maybe take a shower too, he suggests.  Oscar comes in; he says he has some information about Spencer Cassadine.  He found some post-it notes… he says the counselors stick these foreheads of their foreheads and they have to guess who they are.  He says Fredrick Douglas was Spencer’s.  Dante thanks Oscar for his help.  Jos says she wants to help with the search; Carly tells her there is nothing she can do.  She reminds Joslyn that she is still grounded; she asks if she has called Oscar yet to invite him over.  She tells her mom Oscar is helping with the search.  Joslyn’s phone dings; Carly looks and sees it’s a text from Oscar.  He has something to tell Jos and wants to come over; Carly tells her to have him come on over, as she hands back her phone.

Oscar shows up, in a tie, with flowers; Carly is cordial but lets it be known that she wasn’t happy about him being there alone with jos drinking alcohol.  She goes to put the flowers in water.  After they sit down, they have a conversation about underage drinking; Oscar admits to succumbing to peer pressure a few times before, which he agrees is dumb.  He swears never to do anything like that ever again, especially if it will cost him his friendship with Joslyn.  Oscar makes it clear how much Jos means to him and how special he believes she is; Carly says she agrees and is going to stick up for her whether Jos wants her to or not.  He says that’s cool; Carly asks where they moved here from… Ohio.  He tells her about his dad not being present in his life; Carly asks how long he’s been playing piano.  After Oscar leaves, Carly tells Jos she likes him – and he’s super cute, she says.  She tells Jos she can keep seeing him.

Jason throws a bucket of water on Valentin’s head; he wakes up.  Jason holds Spencer’s “missing” poster; Valentin asks what he wants to know.  He asks where Spencer is; Valentin diverts the question with a question and then denies taking Spencer once again.  Jason says maybe his memory is just hazy; he pulls out a knife and says he is going to find out where Spencer is one way or another.  Sonny wonders who sent him this text with the picture of Spencer; he asks what they want… they reply “Meet at Black Duck Distillery, with $200,000.00; no cops or the kid dies.”  Valentin still insists he did not take Spencer and tells Jason he is wasting precious time that he could be spending looking for him; Valentin finally convinces Jason that he is not lying.  Sonny shows up at the designated location; a gun points out from behind a wall and fires.  Sonny drops to the ground.

The man steps out and walks toward Sonny; Sonny turns and fires, shooting the man in the arm.  It’s Garvey; Sonny says it’s a good thing he put on a vest.  Garvey says his arm is bad and he needs help; Sonny asks where Spencer is and Garvey tells him, in a structure behind an abandoned house on Poplar.  He swears he was only using the kid to get to him; Sonny says he is going to call the cops.  Sam calls out behind him; Sonny looks at her.  He asks what she’s doing here; she says she came for him.  Valerie shows Dante where the post-it notes were found; he finds security footage from the parking lot; he orders the area sealed off and starts going over the footage.  He notices a car with the trunk just out of camera view; the driver looks suspicious… the car turns down Cottage Street.  Valerie goes to check that out.  She brings back other footage; they track the car to a certain alley.  Sonny asks Sam to call Jason; she doesn’t.  Garvey starts to stand up and Sonny shoots him in the leg; he goes back down.  Sonny tells Sam to come with him, and he walks past her; she pulls out her gun and says she isn’t going anywhere with him.

Mac is eating (can’t tell if this is the same actor as years ago or not; I think it is)… he drops a fork and knocks over a bag at his feet; a satin nightie.  Nathan asks what the occasion is; Mac says he just wants to make his wife feel as special as she is, keep her interested and put a little ‘umph’ back in their marriage.  No more veggin’ out in front of the tv, he says; Nathan recalls his conversation with “Steve” during his interview.  Mac confesses that he wrote to Ask Man Landers last week and got his answer the other day.  He leaves; Nathan calls Amy and tells her things just got really weird.  Maxie approaches the table (looking much more like her healthy self again) and says she couldn’t agree more.

Oscar calls Jos; they talk about all the things they enjoy doing and can do together this summer now that he passed Carly’s test.  They say this is going to be the most awesome summer ever.  Carly goes to see Sonny and finds Jason sitting at the table; he tells her Sonny left there over an hour ago and hasn’t come back.  They wonder where he went.  Sam tells Sonny to put his gun down; he does.  She says that Jason will never be there for him again because now he is going to die.  (I think Garvey is going to get up again.)
