General Hospital

Guiding Light

Sandy, Tammy and Jonathan had a fateful standoff at the cliff. Trying to save Jonathan, Tammy lunged at Sandy, sending him to his death. When Tammy insisted to Jonathan it was her fault for not being able to choose between them, Jonathan revealed that he was responsible, since he had paid a lawyer to lose Sandy’s divorce papers and tipped off the cops about the bigamy. At the cabin, Alan told Harley that Gus didn’t make it, but neither she nor Mallet saw the carved letter G on the floor.
