AUGUST 31 - SEPTEMBER 4, 1981:
Sky concocted a scheme to goad Gavin into shooting Gunther with a gun loaded with blanks, then forcing Gavin to leave town rather than face conviction for Gunther's "murder".

Before Miles could call for an ambulance, Sky knocked him unconscious and removed the watch from Gunther's body. After Miles phoned with news that Gunther died, Gavin returned to the studio to turn himself in, but fled when he saw a cop, who fired shots at him.
