The blond-haired stranger hid nearby and heard Monica join AJ. She told AJ she was sorry he had come home after Alan and Jason were gone. AJ told her that he regretted the fact that Jason will be remembered as a Morgan and not a Quartermaine. He also confessed to Monica the reason he was thinking about Jason and showed Monica the mysterious invitation. She wondered why she didn't get one and AJ said it was probably because whoever was throwing the party didn’t want Jason’s mother there. He then persuaded her not to crash the party. Then, they left and the blond-haired stranger exclaimed to Jason's plaque before leaving, "No wonder you were so quiet, everyone in your family talks too much." He then realized there was 15 minutes till the party was due to begin and ran off.

She then stopped Luke when he wanted to make a toast, again bringing up his drinking problem, which he denied having. Luke asked her to accept him as he was or they could call the whole thing off. Then, Tracy backed off and started to discuss the missing heir. She turned from closing the patio doors to shut out the storm and found Luke passed out on the floor.

Lulu inspected The Haunted Star for the party. Maxie interrupted as Lulu had a vision triggered by the flowers on the bar. She realized Lulu must not have her memory back and was curious about the party. Lulu admitted to not sending the invites but said she knew who did. Then, Sam entered with Spinelli and wanted to know everything about who was throwing the party. Lulu was a tad shaken by Sam's directness. Then, Maxie jumped in and introduced Spinelli and Sam as Carly, Michael, and Elizabeth arrived. Carly also overwhelmed Lulu with introductions and questions. Unfortunately, Lulu couldn’t tell them what they wanted to know about who was throwing the party. Then, Dante arrived with Sonny and Dante told Carly to leave Lulu alone.

Maxie talked to Spinelli about all Jason did for them and refused to leave although Spinelli wanted her to. In the party room, Sonny asked Sam if she was okay. She replied that she was angry that she was hoping Jason was alive. Carly wondered why they had been brought there as Michael, Elizabeth, Maxie and Spinelli waited with them.

Carly said they all thought Jason had killed him, and he conceded that Jason was thorough, but “not thorough enough.” Then, Sonny pulled a gun on him and offered to finish the job. Franco told him to hold off because he had cheated death and maybe Jason did too. Sam begged Sonny to back down and he granted Franco five minutes. Franco wanted to the truth to Sam, not just about Jason and said they had so much to discuss. He then took a moment to comment on how hot Elizabeth looked. AJ then warned Franco to stay away from her and Elizabeth yelled at Franco for stealing her baby from the hospital. Franco apologized for keeping her child from her and confessed that the same thing had been done to him. Carly then piped up but Franco accused her of causing all of this for revealing Lauren’s existence to the Quartermaines in the first place. Sam didn’t care about Franco’s daughter, she just wanted to know what Franco knew about Jason. Franco the said he wanted to talk about Sam and Jason’s honeymoon. Sam was disgusted at him for bringing up the place where he had raped her. He then cast doubt on that assertion. “Considering you were passed out, how would you know what really happened?” He then said that he could tell her the truth, but watching the video will be so much better. On film, Franco placed an unconscious Sam on the bed. Then he took off his shirt and covered the camera up. Sam began to cry as Carly held her. As the footage continued, Franco got on top of Sam and told her that he wouldn’t touch her, but Jason would always wonder if he had. Franco didn’t rape Sam after all and he said he was so sorry that she thought that he had. Carly didn’t think that changed what he did to Michael. AJ demanded Carly tell him what that was.

Dante promised her that she did the right thing and they owed her their lives. She then told him that the wedding was just the beginning.

Ava then reiterated how dangerous and unstable he was so she had to keep him a secret to keep her safe. Kiki wondered what was so bad about him and Ava told her that he was the famous artist Franco. “He was charming and talented, but deeply troubled. He killed people,” Ava told Kiki, who wondered why she was telling her now. Then, Ava revealed that Kiki, like Franco, was from a family in Port Charles called the Quartermaines, that she was entitled to an inheritance, which meant Kiki was rich… “stinking rich” to be exact. Ava then handed over some papers and urged Kiki to sign, but she balked when she started to read about signing over her shares and freaked out on Ava, who told her that if Tracy got Kiki’s vote, Ava would get a lump sum of money. Kiki then threw the contract at Ava and told her she had lost her. Ava called to Kiki as she stormed away!
On The Haunted Star, AJ demanded that Carly tell him what Franco did to Michael. She refused and Sonny asked AJ to back off, but Michael decided it was his story to tell and recounted about killing Claudia to save Josslyn and going to prison for it. AJ was confused as to how Franco had anything to do with it. Carly didn’t want Michael to reveal anymore if he didn’t want to, but Michael said he was okay and was in control.

Then, Sam got angry when AJ appeared to make the whole thing about him after all Jason did to try to protect Michael. She then pointed at Franco and yelled, "Blame him." Carly then told AJ that Franco hired Carter and then AJ tackled Franco to the floor and started choking him, but Sam wanted AJ to stop hoping Franco knew something about Jason. Once Franco recovered from nearly being choked to death by AJ, he denied being responsible for what happened to Michael, then thanked Michael for the opportunity to prove himself and played a video of him hiring Carter to bait Jason but to protect Michael NOT attack him. Franco then told Michael that he was truly sorry and that he couldn't predict Carter would hurt Michael. Meanwhile, Elizabeth consoled AJ who was upset that he wasn’t there to help Michael. Franco hoped Michael could accept his apology at some point. Michael replied by talking about what Jason meant to him and how it angered him that Franco was trying to hurt Jason and not him. Then, Carly screamed at Franco but he dismissed her, only caring what Michael thought. Sonny was happy to hear there weren’t any more videos to watch and wanted the information Franco had to share on Jason and Sam also wanted no more games and asked Franco if Jason was alive. Sonny then pulled his gun after Franco admitted using Jason just to gather them together in his attempt to give them peace and make things right. Sam then asked Sonny for the gun and aimed it at Franco. "Look around," she yelled, reminding him of the pain and suffering he had caused all of them and the added grief knowing that Jason left the world never knowing the truth that he never raped Sam, but she couldn’t pull the trigger, wanting her son to grow up knowing his mother. She then knocked Franco out with the gun after telling him to enjoy prison.

Then, she told Dante how Stavros ordered the hit on Nikolas and threatened to do the same to Luke, Laura and Dante, since Lulu wouldn’t consummate their “marriage.” Stavros then promised to reward her coldness with a “deepfreeze” of his own. Dante replied that the Lulu he knew stood up to Stavros and he said he was proud of her. He then asked her to put it in the past. Then, in a flash, she heard all the names of her family and friends and saw them as pictures in her mind and then Lulu’s memory returned!. She was so excited and Dante wanted Lulu to tell him a memory, any memory. She mentioned her Yankee jersey and then, they kissed as she kept recalling things like remembering Maxie and the baby she was carrying for them. Then, they made love.
