General Hospital spoilers taunt Officer Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) was looking forward to granting that deal with Austin Gatlin Holt (Roger Howarth) in exchange for information on who he has been working for — Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober).
General Hospital Spoilers Highlights
Austin made a significant decision there, and he was aware of the danger in even going to the PCPD and requesting anonymity.
He most likely ought to have known better that Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Grey), Cyrus’s follower, would have him follow.
Now that Austin has passed away, Ava Jerome (Maura West) will have to deal with the fallout. Dante will be staring at her because he thinks she has the key to solving Austin’s death, among other things.
Austin Wanted to Tell the Truth
The fact that a doctor and apparently decent man is dead because he was unable to give Dante the deal he required in a timely manner will break Dante’s heart.
Nevertheless, Austin probably would have returned home and been executed in cold blood even if he had been able to tell Dante that knowledge.
They will never know now, and if Austin had been the only honorable soldier to come forward and identify the man at the center of everything, there might never be a resolution to this case.
GH Spoilers Claim Ava’s Reaction Will Say a Lot
Dante is going to be taken aback by Ava’s response to the news that Austin is dead — and even more so to her reaction to the news that he wanted to come clean.
That could have saved her from harm once again, and it may only then dawn on Ava that Austin had been telling the truth.
He really did have feelings for her, and he was always trying to protect her — albeit in his own way that left her feeling betrayed and toyed with.
Nevertheless, her emotional reaction, surprise, and recoil will leave Dante wondering just how much Ava knows that she isn’t letting on.
Dante Gets Down to Business
Dante knows Ava well, and that might give him a leg up in this fight. He doesn’t want any harm to come to her or his little sister.
He might emphasize that Austin has already been taken care of by whatever is behind all of this, and it might just be a matter of time until they target her. However, given that it appears that Ava’s actions led to Austin’s termination, she must be equally afraid to speak.
She has no idea that it might not have been Cyrus or his goons who pulled the trigger. It’s still plausible that Adam Huss’s character, Nikolas Cassadine, her ex-husband, is back and ready for fight.
