General Hospital (GH) spoilers and rumors tease Austin Gatlin-Holt (Roger Howarth) lost his cool with Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Grey) and attacked him as TJ Ashford (Tajh Bellow) watched through the window. TJ had just come from being angry that he couldn’t get justice for Mason kidnapping him for Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober)-might TJ join Austin and cover it up and frame Cyrus?

General Hospital Spoilers – Austin Gatlin-Holt Provoked By His Cousin

Austin was severely provoked by his cousin, who taunted him that he told the police he kidnapped Ava Jerome (Maura West) for Austin, throwing him under the bus.

Cyrus was the one who put the hit on Ava, then changed his mind and called it off-Mason got mad and decided to kill her anyway.

Austin was already mad at Cyrus for calling that hit to begin with, and held a scalpel to his throat, after which Cyrus called Mason to take Ava home.

At the point where Austin shut off the heart monitor, locked the door, and started smothering Mason with the pillow, TJ had returned from talking to his mother back to GH.

The blinds on the window were just open enough he could see what was happening through the window-and he was as mad at Mason as Austin was!

GH Spoilers – TJ Ashford Wants Justice, Austin Gatlin-Holt Revenge

TJ wants justice for Mason kidnapping him, which of course was at the orders of Cyrus, who was blackmailing his mother, Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) at the time.

Austin wants revenge against Cyrus for years of blackmail and forcing him to work for “the family” of which he wanted nothing to do with.

Austin has been forced to operate on drug mules and remove the drugs, even since he’s been working for GH, a huge risk to his reputation and career.

TJ and Austin both want to take down Cyrus, and both wanted to have Mason dealt with-why not frame Cyrus for Mason’s attack-presumably, Austin smothered him long enough to kill him.

General Hospital Spoilers – Two Birds, One Stone

No one would vouch for Cyrus, even if he wasn’t in the hospital at the time-he had been earlier, when he reprimanded Mason, then he headed for the Jerome Art Gallery.

Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) told him off and then Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) showed up, escorting him out.

Who knows where Cyrus went from there-perhaps back to GH, looking for someone else to “apologize” to, or perhaps, to reprimand as well, as he previously did Mason.

Austin’s a smart guy, and he probably already knows how to delete security footage from the system; after all, those “operations” would have to be secret.

Cyrus would have motive to eliminate Mason, Mason went rogue-and TJ knows Mason worked for Cyrus-the more they think about it framing Cyrus for Mason’s murder eliminates their problems!
