This script should work. You can try it in a background script

var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
var today = gdt.getDayOfWeekUTC();


if(today == 1){ //today is monday
gdt.addDaysUTC(-3);
}

else if(today == 2){ //today is tues
gdt.addDaysUTC(-4);
}

else if(today == 3){ //today is wed
gdt.addDaysUTC(-5);
}

else if(today == 4){ //today is thurs
gdt.addDaysUTC(-6);
}

else if(today == 5){ //today is fri
gdt.addDaysUTC(-7);
}

else if(today == 6){//today is sat
gdt.addDaysUTC(-1);
}
else if(today == 7){//today is sun
gdt.addDaysUTC(-2);
} 



gs.info(gdt.getDate());

Hi, 

var dt=new GlideDateTime()
var dayow=dt.getDayOfWeekUTC();
var ad;
if(dayow<5)
ad=-(dayow+2)
else if(dayow>5)
ad=5-dayow;
else
ad=-7;

dt.addDaysUTC(ad)
gs.info("Last Friday is on: "+dt)
