Outside the gallery, Sam confided to Silas all of the bad things that Heather had done to destroy her family, but he reminded Sam that Danny was safe and healthy. Sam thought Silas was the real hero since he saved Danny's life with Derek. Silas replied that he's as strong and determined as she is and also someone who will ask for what he wants. He then asked to kiss her and she obliged. Meanwhile, inside, Sonny announced that the party wasn’t over and suggested that Michael ask his brother why he was there. Ava worried Sonny knew about the bug and thought he had a gun. Sonny then accused Morgan of spying and wanted to know why he would stab him in the back. Derek wouldn’t let Ava stop the confrontation, because he was anxious to see how it played out. Morgan admitted to bugging Sonny’s office and giving the recording to Scott of Sonny and Lazzaro's conversation about Julian's file. Alexis didn’t understand why Sonny was having this conversation in front of other people. Sonny then asked who she thought put Morgan up to this as he looked at Derek. Kiki and Michael thought Ava was responsible for coercing Morgan and Sonny asked her if that was true, but Morgan admitted no one made him do it and that he did it on his own when Sonny chose Michael over him. Michael then tried to explain to Morgan how the Jeromes were playing him, but Morgan wouldn’t listen. Sonny's heart was broken when Morgan said that he meant to betray Sonny. Michael followed Morgan out when he left. Silas and Sam saw each leave and neither responded when she called after them. She and Silas went back inside and found Kiki accusing Ava of playing her too. Sonny stopped Kiki saying that Ava wasn’t “the brains of the operation.” Derek then pointed out that Sonny was talking about him but Kiki blamed Ava and ran to find Michael and Morgan. Alexis updated Sam and Silas about the bug in Sonny's office but questioned Derek's involvement. They weren’t surprised after learning Ava was a true Jerome. Derek then revealed that his name wasn’t Derek Wells…it was Julian Jerome! Sam then said that Julian was dead, but Sonny then revealed the information about him being in witness protection. Sam still couldn’t believe it was true and calmly questioned Derek. Derek told Alexis he remembered their one night in New Hampshire and it all came together after he held Danny. He went on to say that he had no choice but to keep the truth from her and Sam. He also said that he loved them and wanted to claim them as his family but it wasn't meant to happen. Sam asked why and Julian replied that once he left the gallery, he was a dead man because Sonny had people waiting for him outside to take him out!
At The Metro Court Franco heard someone come in and told Diane to go away but it was Carly. She told him that she was worried about him after Heather dumped the news on him that she was his mother. Franco didn’t believe he could blame his craziness on his tumor anymore and believed his crazy genes came from his mother. Carly didn't want him to let Heather do this to him because he was still who he was. He wondered who he really was and blamed Scott Baldwin for his existence. Franco didn't want to talk about what happened anymore and yelled at Carly “to go back to your boyfriend.” He was surprised when she was still there. Carly then said she wasn't kicking him out and she wasn’t involved with Derek. He then confessed that he wasn’t involved with Diane either. They then argued about their fake relationships with Derek and Diane. Franco then told Carly that there was only one woman in the world for him. Carly replied that she only wanted the truth and that he could have told her about Heather. Franco replied that he couldn't let her know that he had sunk that low after he couldn't make art and that he didn't want to lose her. Carly said she knew he would be an amazing artist again after a little time but Franco didn't know. He went on to say that he used to be defined by something else and focused on Jason, but it was all a lie and he had nothing to give to her. She replied that she didn't want to leave him and that he needed a friend. He said he didn't want a friend or her pity. She said it wasn't pity and kissed him.
Michael found Morgan at the docks. He was angry about the danger Morgan was putting Sonny in. Michael warned Morgan about how the business worked but Morgan thought Michael was overreacting. Michael said that if this was all about him and Kiki that Morgan would have taken this up with him instead of serving up Sonny on a silver platter to the Jeromes. Michael told Morgan that Sonny loved him too and was out of his mind when he ruined his marriage, but Morgan blamed Michael for stealing Kiki and was tired of Michael's “poor me act.” He warned Morgan not to hit him again and punched him then Morgan went after him. They fought and Michael told him to think about Sonny lying in a pool of blood the next time he was in bed with Ava. Morgan replied by saying that he would never forgive Michael for stealing his wife and Michael said he would never forgive Morgan if something happened to Sonny. Kiki arrived while they were struggling and screamed for Michael to stop. He did but Morgan hit him instead. Michael's head hit the pier’s floor and he fell into the water.
Carly and Franco kissed passionately in his room. Carly wanted Franco but tried to fight it. He asked, "Why?" She replied that she didn’t know if she could trust him with her children. He replied that he never meant for Michael to get hurt and realized it wasn’t enough. Carly cried that she wanted him, but she couldn't. She left as Franco stood behind telling himself to let her go.
Ava was certain that Shawn was waiting for Julian outside. Sonny said he was just protecting his family and asked if Alexis wanted that too. Sam worried about her family too and asked if anybody thought about Danny because if Sonny had Julian killed, they'd have to search for months to find a new donor if Danny's leukemia returned. Alexis wanted Sonny to drop whatever he had planned. Sonny then said that he never meant to put Danny in danger. He apologized to Sam before accusing Julian of not going to the hospital to have tests done in advance. He then pointed out that Julian was holding Danny hostage to save his own skin and left. Sam wondered if that was true and asked if she'd see him at the hospital tomorrow. Julian replied that he loved Danny but if Silas had a way to bank his marrow he'd be in danger of Sonny killing him. Sam thought Sonny was right and left angry. Ava wanted Silas to get Sam to see reason but he didn't want Ava talking to him. Alexis wouldn't let Julian go after Sam and warned him against playing games with her family. She then advised him to worry about his relationship with Carly since “she and Sonny are tight.” Julian then told Alexis that he was never interested in Carly, realized Alexis was angry but asked her to trust him like she did once a long time ago. She asked if she was being seduced and he kissed her passionately. He pulled away and said, "I remember you. See you soon," and left. Outside, Carlos startled Shawn, who pulled a gun on him. He claimed he was the security guard and knew Shawn worked for Sonny. Carlos told him he had no business there. Then, Sonny came out as Shawn advised Carlos to stand down. Sonny said they could leave because it was over. Once they were alone, Shawn mentioned that he didn't get Carlos' name. Carlos replied that he didn't give it but thought they'd see more of each other since their bosses were on a collision course. Shawn didn't agree and said, "You won't even see me coming."
At the pier, Kiki screamed, "Morgan, what have you done?" after Michael's head hit the floor and he fell into the water. She was desperate for Morgan to help but he thought his brother was fine when Michael surfaced. He then pulled away from Kiki and left. She yelled for Michael to swim towards the dock but he went under. No one answered her calls for help so she jumped in. A moment later she was up for air as Franco and Carly rushed over and pull her out of the water. She was choking and told them that Michael hit his head and was down there. Franco jumped in as Carly called 911. Franco pulled Michael out and Carly gave him CPR until he came to. He didn't let Kiki tell Carly that he and Morgan were fighting. Michael then refused medical treatment and everyone left the pier. When everyone had gone, Morgan walked over to where Michael fell in. Ava found him, was sorry he was been injured and said she tried to warn him that there would be a cost for going against his father.
Max dragged Olivia back into the restaurant against her will and complained about the black eye she gave him. He told her that he knew she cared about “the boss” and that Sonny cared about her too. Olivia hoped Sonny was ready for a relationship but worried their moment had come and gone. Later, Sonny returned and confessed how Morgan deliberately betrayed him. Olivia wanted to help. He told her that he just wanted her there. Then, they made love.
At the penthouse, TJ told Molly that he was worried about Shawn, who was working for Sonny, because he wasn’t answering TJ's calls. Molly said Alexis works for Sonny too, and insisted they we’re fine. TJ then commented that Alexis didn't carry a gun to work. They we’re playing a video game when Silas and Sam came in. Sam rushed upstairs to check on Danny and Silas sent the kids out for pizza. Once they were alone, Silas offered to stay. Before they could kiss, Danny started crying and they talked about another rain check.
In bed, Kiki thought Michael should have told Carly about the fight at the pier. She told Michael how she was upset that Morgan left him there to drown. Michael replied that he still had hope that Morgan could be saved from the Jeromes.
Carly returned to Franco's room to give him his jacket but before she left she admitted that she wanted to take that leap because she could now trust him since he saved Michael’s life. He pulled her into a kiss and they ended up making love.
At the courthouse, Diane congratulated Scott on the news he had a son. He said that he didn't want to hear the name. Diane didn't think Franco was bad but denied being his girlfriend saying that Carly was the only woman for him.
On the phone in his room, Julian told Ava he hadn't spoken to Sonny and answered Alexis' knock. She came in with his newspaper. The headline read, "Good Morning Port Charles, I am Julian Jerome." She asked if he was proud but he joked that she must really want to be there after their kiss last night. She slapped him when he asked if she had come back for more. She told him that she broke up with someone who was in the mob and told him not to go near Sam or Danny. He replied that was Sam's decision. Besides, there was no proof he was after Sonny and he'd never hurt Sam or Danny. He then said that he cared about Alexis too and thought something was going on between them. What they had now was more mature, like red wine. She replied that his lies have soured the wine for her and she left for court. Scott came by later, knowing that Julian was responsible for the recording of Lazzaro conspiring with Sonny. He realized it wasn't out of the kindness of his heart and asked what Julian wanted in return. Julian claimed he was now a legitimate business man and offered to do a spread of him and Lucy in his paper. He remembered Lucy was involved with his father…and responsible for his death. He then insinuated that nothing would happen to Lucy, knowing he and Scott could work together.
Sonny asked Olivia to talk about what happened last night when she woke up in his bed. Olivia reminded him how upset he was about learning that Julian was Danny's grandfather. She then said she was glad she was there but it didn't have to mean something. He reminded her how she'd always been there for him, even when she gave him room to be with Connie. He then said that he didn't know where this would go but told her how beautiful she was. She thanked him and got up to get ready for the custody hearing but he wasn’t ready for her to leave and they kissed.
At The Metro Court, Luke was eager to get to the cops instead of the hospital. Dante overheard him at the door and wanted to know what Tracy didn't want the cops to know. Tracy covered then fussed over Connie while Lulu hugged Luke. She told him she was worried that he had to go to the hospital. He told her that it was just a checkup. Tracy and Luke were surprised but supportive to hear about the custody battle for Connie and agreed to babysit during the hearing.
Carly woke up in Franco's bed and kissed him. He asked if in the cold light of day she thought this was a mistake since he was the son of a second rate D.A. with a crazy mother who hated his guts. Carly corrected him that Heather hated her guts but Franco wondered if this was when she dumped him and went back to Derek. Carly told him that she wasn’t interested in Derek and wanted Franco to stop pushing her away. She then showered while he answered the door. There was a delivery of dead roses for Carly and a note that read, “Stay away from my son,” it was signed Heather Webber. When Carly rejoined him she asked him why he got her dead flowers. He hid Heather's note and chased Carly back to bed to make love.
At GH, Ellie thought she was the luckiest person alive to have Spinelli and regretted she couldn't accompany him to court. She wondered about Diane's strategy and Spinelli shared that he was advised to marry Maxie. Ellie was worried but Spinelli said he wouldn't perpetrate fraud and that when he walked down the aisle, he planned on doing it with her. Later, Ellie was pleased to see Luke was doing well but wondered what he and Tracy are doing with Spinelli's baby. Luke and Tracy thought the judge would have a say in that.
In the courtroom, Felicia hugged Maxie for Mac while he was busy tracking down Robert and Anna. Maxie said she was doing her best to not look like an unfit mother but was really scared. Diane and Alexis came in and Spinelli joined Maxie. Lulu and Dante arrived, followed by Sonny and Olivia. Alexis confirmed to the judge she was there to show Maxie was an unfit mother. Then, Elizabeth took the stand. She testified how Maxie had an affair with Lucky, supported his drug habit, and faked a pregnancy and miscarriage. During the break, Dante was sorry Maxie had to hear that. Alexis asked how far they wanted to push this. Lulu said she was ready to go all the way but Dante had reservations. Nearby, Maxie worried who they will call next. The judge restarted the proceedings and Alexis called Maxie to the stand. Maxie testified that she regretted what happened to Lucky and Elizabeth but that didn't make her an unfit mother. Alexis then asked, "What about the fact that you are a murderer?"
Elizabeth returned to the hospital and told Ellie that things weren't going well for Maxie and Spinelli.
In the lab, Brad gave Felix a photo of them together at the Halloween party. Felix liked the gift and was about to kiss Brad when Ellie burst in. Felix left and Brad snapped at Ellie for her bad timing. She snapped back, mad about him not giving her the day off to attend Connie's custody hearing.
At Patrick's, Sabrina gave Emma her flower girl dress before Patrick announced that the wedding was next week. Emma hoped that Spencer and Cameron wouldn't be there to ruin her dress like they did at the Halloween party. Then, she remembered the lady who was nice to her and asked if they could go to Wyndemere and invite her to the wedding. Patrick told her they couldn't, then he had to go to work and Felix arrived with wedding dresses. Sabrina was disappointed that they were the only ones that could be ready by next week. Then, Emma asked if she'd like Robin's dress. Sabrina thought Emma should wear the dress at her wedding someday, like she always wanted to wear her mom's. Felix wanted a picture, but Sabrina said she didn’t have one because her father shipped her off with no pictures of her mother. He promised to find her the perfect dress anyways.
At Wyndemere, Robin was worried because Patrick was engaged and could get married at any time. Nikolas sympathized. She then told him that the cure had been in Luke's blood long enough to have created the antibodies that she needed to save Jerry. Nikolas knew Luke had an appointment at the hospital. In the living room, Britt couldn't believe her eyes when she saw Obrecht coming out of the wall. Obrecht claimed she was taking a stroll down memory lane with Faison. Britt thought they were estranged and thought Obrecht was lying. She wondered where Faison was and planned to go look for him when Robin and Nikolas came in asking for help. Britt agreed to call Brad in the lab and then left to check on Ben. Nikolas thought Obrecht could start packing but she reminded Robin she had been gone a long time and asked Robin how she knew that Patrick would choose her over Sabrina? Britt joined them and confirmed that Luke's blood was in the lab. Obrecht warned Robin not to be seen. Later, Britt saw Obrecht take food to the wall.
At GH, Tracy hoped Ellie hurried up Luke's lab results while Luke wondered if Connie sensed her parents were in court fighting for her. They ran into Patrick, who was surprised to learn Luke had taken a cure for his polonium poisoning. He told them that he’d love to meet the genius doctor who came up with it. They replied that they couldn’t give Patrick her name and just wanted Luke's lab results. Back in the lab, Ellie and Brad's argument was interrupted when Britt called to ask if Luke's blood was there. Ellie thought it was odd that Britt called asking about Luke’s blood. Brad acted like he didn't have time and told her to leave and leave Luke's blood where it was. Later, Nikolas showed up and told Brad to not let anyone into the lab but he later left to take Felix's call. Robin came in and remembered that the lab was the last place Patrick saw her alive. Meanwhile, Patrick approached the lab.
At the courthouse, Maxie was surprised when Alexis questioned how she murdered someone. Alexis exchanged a look with Lulu before announcing that she killed Robin. Dante wanted Lulu to tell Alexis to back off. The judge restored order and asked Maxie if she was responsible and she confirmed that she was, which caused Spinelli to scream out in her defense. Maxie confessed to the judge what happened that night after Matt called her a bad person for getting Elizabeth fired. Robin wouldn't go to a party with her and Maxie stormed out breaking a gas nozzle, which caused the explosion. She stared at Lulu as she said how she regretted not being able to tell Robin how sorry she was. On cross examination, Diane asked Maxie if she intentionally killed Robin. She answered no and the judge called for a break. The courtroom cleared, Dante shrugged Lulu off him and told her to stay. She found herself alone with Maxie, who asked her how she could use Robin's death against her. Lulu replied that she was mad that Maxie had hurt her, just like she hurt Robin. Outside, Sonny asked Dante how he was holding up. He said that he wanted to keep his daughter but he didn't want to do it like this. Sonny advised him that he needed to. When everyone returned, Dante and the lawyers separated Maxie and Lulu from their argument. Once she was alone, Maxie decided it was time to go after Lulu like she had gone after her. On the stand, Lulu agreed with Alexis that Robin's death was an accident, but added that Maxie had a lot of accidents. She questioned if Connie could die because of her carelessness while Dante hung his head down. Nearby, Ellie joined Spinelli. On cross examination, Diane pointed out that the only one in the custody battle who was a murderer was Lulu.
At the courthouse, Diane accused Lulu of being a murderer twice. Dante couldn't believe it. Mac and Felicia realized Diane was as mean as Alexis. Felicia asked Mac about his search for Robert and Anna and Mac whispered back that there was no sign of them before Lulu confirmed knowing Logan Hayes. She claimed his death was self-defense so Diane asked how she justified killing someone who posed no threat…her unborn child. Lulu yelled to Maxie, "How could you?" She then addressed her decision to have an abortion saying she wasn't ready to be a parent then, but she was now. Sonny asked Alexis to do something. Then, Diane changed directions and asked Lulu about her decision to flee the country with Connie. Lulu denied making that claim and said, "Maxie is lying." Ellie was surprised as Maxie whispered that Lulu was lying. During a break, Maxie told her parents that Lulu brought Dante in on the plan. Nearby, Dante argued with Lulu about perjuring herself. The break ended and Diane called Dante to the stand. She recounted Lulu's testimony and asked Dante if Lulu was telling the truth.
On Cassadine Island, Robert got shocked while messing with the door lock. Anna thought they'd never get free but wanted Robert to prepare to jump the guards when they brought food. He knew they were the best of the best and came up with an idea. They chewed gum until the guards came. After they left, Robert and Anna recreated the guard's finger print with tape, salt, and gum. With gum on his thumb, Robert tried the lock. Anna was shocked when the doors opened.
Britt caught Obrecht ready to enter the tunnels of Wyndemere with a tray of food. She said she was taking a picnic to Faison. Britt thought Faison was up to something and she wanted to know what. Obrecht didn't want Britt to follow her and slipped on a dark path. When Nikolas came in, Britt admitted to thinking her parents were up to something. Nikolas laughed about her concern over the catacombs and reminded her that she was in good company since his family was crazy too. Britt was concerned when Nikolas told her that he left Brad in charge of watching the lab but he admitted to not wanting to leave her alone with her parents. He added that he didn't blame her and was more interested in finding a solution to handle the situation…even if it meant murder. Britt didn't think he could kill anyone, and he admitted that he wouldn't. Britt said she knew he wouldn't because he was too good and he was her hero. She then said she’d stick by him through this just like he has stuck by her. He promised not to take any unnecessary risks, but said he cared too much about her to let something happen. Then, he kisses her and she kissed back.
In the catacombs, Faison taunted Duke and said that he planned on keeping him a prisoner for a long time. Obrecht arrived with food and warned Faison that they couldn't keep this up much longer because Britt was growing suspicious. Obrecht thought Duke posed a threat and should be eliminated, but Faison said he had the situation under control and got angry with Obrecht. She grabbed a knife when Faison knocked the tray out of her hand. Duke then said he knew Faison wanted him alive to get to Anna and Faison told Duke to stop baiting Obrecht. Obrecht thought he had given up on Anna, but he hadn't. Faison then said he had Anna before and thought he would have Anna again. Duke begged Obrecht to end this. Faison didn't think she would but she went for him with the knife and they struggled.
Carlos visited Sabrina at Patrick's and saw a room full of wedding dresses. She thought he had better things to do for “Mr. Wells” after seeing the newspaper. Carlos denied knowing anything about Derek being Julian Jerome and said any business he had with Julian Jerome would be legit. She replied saying why she should care. Carlos then confessed that he intended to spend the rest of his life with her. Sabrina replied that she wanted him to be happy but she loved Patrick. She threw him out after he tossed a few dresses around.
At GH, Robin heard Patrick approaching the lab. Dr. Dosky stopped Patrick to congratulate him on his wedding telling him that he thought Robin would approve. Dosky said he saw Brad leave but knew Patrick knew his way around the lab. Robin hid under a desk before Patrick came in. She worried when he dropped some papers on the floor but he was distracted when Sabrina came in. He was happy to see her but upset when she told him about Carlos' visit to his house. Robin overheard that Carlos works for Julian Jerome. Patrick told Sabrina that he didn't want Carlos near his family. They decided they'd call Anna about it before kissing and leaving the lab. Once she was alone, Robin read the wedding invitation that Sabrina left behind. Elsewhere, Carlos was looking for Sabrina. When he found the lab, he thought he was confronting Sabrina, but he turned Robin around and saw her face.
