Garvey

**Garvey** was a fictional character on the ABC daytime soap opera *General Hospital*.

He was portrayed by actor Rick Ravanello from June 20 to August 4, 2017.

## Storylines

Garvey is first seen interviewing Nelle for a job. Bobbie chases Nelle away. Garvey then meets an old criminal friend Julian Jerome. Garvey has just gotten out of jail after five years because he wouldn’t tell on any of his West Coast partners.

Garvey tries to convince Julian to bring down Sonny. Garvey’s brother was killed last year by Sonny’s men. Julian turns him down and goes to Sam’s place to warn her and Drew (as “Jason”).

On June 23, Garvey holds a gun on Sonny at The Island. Sonny recognizes the name Garvey and asks if he is related to Brett Garvey. Garvey says that was his brother. He plans to kill Carly in front of Sonny as revenge.

Sonny taunts Garvey who almost shoots him but Carly hits Garvey to stop him. She grabs a gun and misses when she shoots at Garvey. He is shot by “Jason” who is also grazed in the arm by Carly’s bullet.

Sonny says the police are transporting Garvey to San Juan. He will be in the hospital a few days and will make a full recovery. Then he will be extradited back to the US so he can face attempted-murder charges. “Jason” explains how Julian warned him about Garvey.

Garvey is next seen on July 24. He has kidnapped Spencer from the park and sends Sonny a text picture of Spencer in a basement. Sonny arranges to meet Garvey at the Black Duck Distillery. Garvey shoots Sonny in the chest and Sonny shots Garvey’s arm. Sonny reveals he had a vest on. Garvey assures Sonny that Spencer is fine and is behind an abandoned house on Poplar.

Sam shows up and tells Sonny she followed him. Sonny shoots Garvey again after he tries to escape. Sam is sick and shoots Sonny who falls into a hole.

Jordan explains to Dante that she just got a call from the U.S. Marshal's office. Garvey was on parole when he went after Sonny and was doing time for RICO charges. He never went back to prison. After he was extradited from Puerto Rico, he went missing, and it is suspected he paid off the two marshals that transported him as they have also disappeared. Somebody matching his description abandoned a stolen car just outside of Delaware. It’s likely he is heading back to Port Charles.

Garvey sees Sonny in the hole and leaves him to die as Garvey has lost his gun.

Elizabeth hears Garvey coughing in the GH parking garage. He grabs her by the throat and says he needs drugs and to be patched up. Carly suddenly walks in on them. She later explains that she convinced Garvey she is going along with his plan. When he let his guard down, she jumped him.

Garvey is next seen being brought in a gurney into the hospital. Carly says that he knows where Sonny is even though Garvey claimed he killed Sonny. Liz saw a dirty white sedan in the garage and it is realized that Garvey took Spencer.

Carly sneaks into Garvey’s hospital room when she hears he is out of surgery. She threatens to deny him morphine if he doesn’t tell her where Sonny is. Dante walks in on her and makes her leave. Later “Jason” threatens Garvey and is told that Sonny was shot but not killed. Garvey says “Jason” will have to ask her and then he dies of cardiac arrest before he can say anything else.
