While there were several instances where “General Hospital” fans speculated that Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) shooting John “Jagger” Cates (Adam J. Harrington) during last week Friday’s episode would turn out to be a dream, those ideas were dashed on Tuesday when the drama series released its weekly promo indicating the mobster would seek solace from his ex-wife, Carly Spencer (Laura Wright), to help him get out of his latest bind.
In the promo, the Port Charles Police Department are shown casing the scene at the Quartermaine mansion boat house where John’s body is discovered, with Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) pointing out the deceased FBI agent was shot as Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) takes in what’s happening on his family’s property.
At the main house, Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) declares, “Agent Cates is dead, and everyone here is going to need to be questioned!” Those present at the time are Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton), Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), and Sonny and Carly, among others.
Speaking of Sonny, he demands Carly help him cover his tracks when he tells her, “If anybody asks, we’ve been up here for the last half hour.” In response, Carly asks “Why?” We’ll soon find out if he reveals the truth, but knowing Carly, she’ll cover for him no matter what. He’s her ride-or-die after all, at least when Jason (Steve Burton) is not in the room.
Elsewhere, Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson) is in for a surprise when he meets Holly Sutton (Emma Samms) face-to-face for the first time.
