GH Spoilers: Valentin Holds Brennan’s Black Box Hostage, His Demands Go Far Beyond Money

General Hospital spoilers and updates tease there may be more to the bargain regarding Valentin Cassadine’s (James Patrick Stuart) bargaining chip than the WSB freeing his money!

What else might Valentin have in mind in exchange for returning Jack Brennan’s (Chris L. McKenna) black box secure safe?

Key Takeaways

• Valentin uses Brennan’s black box as leverage.
• Brennan’s darkest secrets could be exposed.
• Unfreezing Valentin’s assets may not be enough.
• The black box could shift the balance of power.
• Valentin may have a bigger endgame in mind.

Valentin Wanted To Buy Wyndemere For Him And Charlotte Cassadine To Live In

Valentin wanted to buy Wyndemere for him and Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) to live in, but he needed the WSB to unfreeze his assets and free up his money.

When he met with his cousin, Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) she told him he couldn’t have Wyndemere, it belonged to Nikolas Cassadine’s (most recently Adam Huss) young son Ace Cassadine (Karis and Kieran Barry).

This is unfortunate, considering he and Charlotte already looked, and she was anxious to live there again and have a stable for her horse-but didn’t Valentin already know it wasn’t for sale?

However, even after that discussion with Alexis, Valentin still wants his assets unfrozen and his money freed up, which the WSB has to do. He shows up at the WSB field office ready to bargain with Jack for his black box, but may there be more to “the bargain?”

Jack, Once Valentin’s Friend And Partner, Has Betrayed And Become His Enemy

Jack was one of the ringleaders in the Pikeman Security Group, which was an aftermarket sales vehicle for WSB weapons-one of their pass-through points in Berlin, Germany.

That made one wonder if Alex Devane Marick (Finola Hughes) was truly dead or not, since she had been based out of Berlin and her body has never been found!

But Jack got caught-and lost the position of WSB Director and went to Pentonville for a time, in which Valentin took over Pikeman and ran it.

One day, Jack mysteriously was released from Pentonville and showed up as the field director of a new WSB office in Port Charles-how, and more importantly why?

That is a simple answer-he threw Valentin under the bus, made him the fall guy, and forced him to go on the run, much of the time with Charlotte in tow!

Valentin Is A Free Man-All His Charges Dropped, But From Jack, He May Demand More Than Unfrozen Assets!

Valentin may be a free man now, all his charges dropped, but from Jack, he may demand more than unfrozen assets!

When Jack sent him to Z (John Oliver) with the words “Ex Machina” he also told him to use his code-might that code have been to open the black box?

Valentin may already know all of Jack’s secrets, and instead of Jack using some of them as leverage against Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), Valentin may be using them as leverage against Jack!

No doubt Valentin will get all his money back, although how he’s going to buy Wyndemere back is another story entirely.

The only way that might happen is to make Ace and Charlotte joint heirs-a female heir unheard of in Cassadine circles!
