In flashbacks, we saw Gwen wearing Sarah Horton’s mask and threatening Abigail with a scary syringe. However, Abigail tore off Gwen’s mask and understood Gwen was trying to implicate Sarah.
Apparently, Gwen wanted to scare Abigail so she could win Xander’s affections. The syringe only had saline, but Abigail was furious and threatened to call the cops. Of course, Gwen tried to assure Abigail that she did not kill Laura intentionally and wanted to return to prison. Abigail agreed and threatened Gwen from making any more moves in the future.
