Monday
Nikolas spotted Helena talking with Rebecca on the docks. When Rebecca saw Nik, she loudly ordered Helena to stay away from her. Nikolas was suspicious and asked what the two ladies could possibly have to talk about. Helena suggested that Rebecca spill what they were discussing. Rebecca claimed that Hels advised her to exploit her resemblance to Emily. Helena departed and Nik wondered why Rebecca would talk to his wicked grandmother after being warned to avoid her. Nikolas walked away and returned to Wyndemere. Rebecca followed him and barked that she resents him thinking that she has a secret agenda. Rebecca was furious that Nik doubted her. Nikolas suddenly pulled Rebecca into a kiss and just then, Alexis walked in and caught them. "Helena would be proud of you," she told Rebecca. When Alexis accused Rebecca of
working for Helena, Nik said she shouldn't make unsubstantiated claims. Alexis agreed, then pushed back Rebecca's hair to reveal a plastic surgery scar.
Jax was stunned to find Jerry by Michael's bedside. Jax wasn't buying Jerry's remorse and asked what he was really doing there. Jerry told Jax that he never intended for Michael to be hurt. "Go away, Jerry," Jax asked. Jerry advised Jax not to say anything to Carly because it would jeopardize his marriage. "How many times do I have to say I'm sorry?" Jerry asked. Jax ordered his brother to leave, "Or I'll kill you myself."
Sonny nearly caught Claudia with a pregnancy test. She told him she was looking at a new lipstick, then asked if he had found Jerry yet. Claudia again professed her innocence regarding Michael's shooting. Sonny said he wanted to believe her but wasn't quite there yet.
At Carly's house, Jason read the results of her pregnancy test: it was positive. Carly was thrilled and troubled at the same time. She discussed her desire to give Jax a baby girl, then mentioned the complications due to her blood disorder. Carly said that Kelly gave her 50/50 odds of carrying the baby to term, then questioned whether or not she could terminate the pregnancy. Carly decided that she wasn't going to tell Jax about the pregnancy just yet, until she had more answers. Later, Jax came home and found the pregnancy test results. "Are we going to have a baby?" Jax asked
Carly.
At the hospital, Epiphany was having trouble with the new computer system. Robin then caught Patrick and Elizabeth talking about her. Robin told Patrick about her therapy appointment and swore that she wanted to get better. Patrick was happy that Robin was taking her meds and looked forward to being able to trust her again. Matt and Liz watched the exchange from a safe distance.
Sonny bumped into Luke on the docks. Luke said Bobbie had mentioned it was the one-year anniversary of Michael's shooting. Luke conveyed his regrets and walked off. Sonny stated, "You have something I need." Sonny then asked Luke to use his contacts to try and get a location on Jerry. He added that he wants to hear Jerry say if he was working with Ric or Claudia. Luke warned Sonny to be careful what he wished for.
Johnny came to the house to find Claudia over the moon. "I'm pregnant," she smiled. "I took the test twice." Johnny didn't think that Claudia getting pregnant would save her skin if Sonny found out the truth about her involvement in Michael's shooting.
Later at G.H., Robin and Patrick differed on how to treat a patient. Matt warned his brother about letting his personal problems affect his work. When it came time to go into the O.R., Matt strongly advised Patrick not to go in there with Robin while they were going through their marital troubles. Patrick assured Matt that they were fine. During the surgery, the patient ran into a problem on the operating table.
When Sonny came home, Claudia called Johnny and, pretending that she didn't know he was there, tearfully said that her husband doesn't want any more children and she needs to schedule and abortion immediately.
Tuesday
At Wyndemere, Rebecca pushed Alexis and barked, "Don't ever touch me again." She denied Alexis's accusations of working for Helena and relayed that her plastic surgery scar was from a childhood bicycle accident. Rebecca pointed out to Nikolas that he was the one who has been following her, not the other way around. Rebecca claimed she didn't care what they thought but Alexis asked if that was true, why was she still there? Rebecca left in a huff.
Helena showed up at The Haunted Star, where Ethan turned on the charm. At Helena's request, he told her the story of how he met Luke. But, when Ethan tried to steal out of her purse, Helena grabbed a knife and held it at Ethan's throat. Luke entered and talked Helena out of slitting Ethan's throat. Helena watched Luke and Ethan's frothy repartee and smiled, "Well, well, well. Isn't this delicious?" "What?" they asked in unison. Luke sent Ethan on an errand and Helena told Luke that, "It's so obvious. Ethan is your son." "You are the queen of mind games," he replied. As Luke wrapped his hands around Helena's throat, Ethan entered and broke up the clinch. Helena told Ethan that she's sure they'll meet again, then she left.
In the O.R., Patrick's patient stabilized and he and Robin proved to be a good team during the operation. Afterward, Patrick said it was starting to feel like old times. They agreed to get Chinese food after their shift ended. The couple returned home to relieve Mercedes and settled down to eat. Robin suggested they take a cooking class together. Patrick said they should do sports together instead. Patrick then gave Emma to Robin, who immediately put her down for a nap.
Jax found Carly's pregnancy test and asked if she was expecting. Carly smiled and nodded her head. Jax was overjoyed. Carly assured Jax that she was fine and that she was hoping for a little girl. Jax said that Carly made him the happiest man on Earth, then he ran out of the house and said he'd be right back.
Sonny overheard Claudia on the phone asking to schedule an abortion. He grabbed the phone out of her hand and said that he needed to speak to his wife and hung up. Sonny was unaware that Johnny was actually on the other end of the phone. Claudia cried and pretended the pregnancy was an accident. Sonny said he needed time to think. Johnny went to see Claudia. She relayed that Sonny didn't seem suspicious. She was worried, though, that Sonny might want her to get an abortion and that would blow her plan to smithereens.
Down at the docks, Sonny ran into Olivia and confessed that Claudia was pregnant with his child. "I messed up big time," he told Liv. "I got nobody to blame but myself." Olivia offered him muted congratulations. Sonny couldn't figure out how it happened, as they always used protection. Olivia said that he needs to consider the woman's feelings here, besides just his own. Sonny returned home and told Claudia that he doesn't want her to get an abortion. "A child has been conceived and I will give that child the best life I can," Sonny stated. Claudia vowed to do her best to be a good mother to their baby.
Jax met with Alexis on the docks and shared the good news of Carly's pregnancy. Alexis was genuinely happy for her friend. Then, he broke the news that Jerry was alive and was involved in Michael's shooting. Alexis was stunned. Jax asked her to keep the truth from Carly, as to not upset her pregnancy. Later, Jax returned home with bags full of baby gifts. Jax confessed that he bought out the entire baby girl section of the store. "Thank you for being the man of my dreams," Carly told her husband.
Helena returned to Wyndemere, where Nikolas was studying the painting that his grandmother had requested. Nik feared that giving her the painting would somehow come back to haunt him. Helena took the painting and bid her grandson farewell. On the docks, Lucky ran into Rebecca, who was still furious with Nikolas and his family. Lucky stuck up for his brother but Rebecca vowed that she was done with him. Nik showed up and was upset to see the two of them so chummy. On her plane, Helena slit open the back of the painting and pulled out a birth certificate.
Wednesday
Maxie showed up at the Penthouse, lamenting to Jason about her separation from Spinelli. Maxie professed that Spinelli is and always will be her "essential person" and they need each other back in their lives. Jason countered that Spinelli seems to be doing just fine. He added that Maxie needs to be talking to Spinelli, not him.
Aboard The Haunted Star, Luke demanded some answers from Ethan. Luke asked Ethan about his biological parents, who he claimed were killed in a car wreck when he was 15. When Luke asked more questions, Ethan claimed that the adoption records were sealed, so he doesn't know anything about them. Luke didn't like that answer. Tracy entered and admitted they were both suspicious of Ethan. Tracy wondered if Ethan was in cahoots with Helena. Ethan said that his adoptive parents were good people but he wasn't cut from the same cloth as them. He said he left home when he was young to see the world. Ethan claimed the reason he sought out Luke was to find an example of someone who knows how to live life to its fullest. Then, Lulu entered to borrow a
chair for her apartment. Luke asked Ethan to give the girl a hand. Tracy and Luke both agreed that Ethan's story sounded rehearsed. Tracy came clean about finding the old photo of Luke and Robert in Ethan's wallet. Tracy assumed that Holly was Ethan's mother and either Luke or Scorpio was his pop.
Patrick brought Emma home from their walk in the park. Robin was pleased to see that Emma had fallen asleep. However, Emma woke up and Patrick decided to change her. He also noted that Robin's meds seem to be working. Later, Robin went to her therapy appointment but rather than go in, she left.
Carly set up an appointment with Kelly to take tests to evaluate what her options are now that she's pregnant. Jax entered and Carly covered her conversation. Jax was elated about them having a baby. He wanted to join Carly at her appointment but she managed to dissuade him. Later at G.H., Carly kept her appointment and told Kelly that she wanted to do whatever she had to in order to keep this baby.
Spinelli visited Lulu at the apartment and announced that his P.I. firm was open for business. Lulu apologized for hurting Spinelli's feelings during her last fight with Maxie. Spinelli noted that his heartbreak has sharpened his cyber skills. "Stay strong," Lulu advised. Spinelli returned to the Penthouse and found Maxie there. "I've got to be somewhere," noted Jason, who made a hasty exit. Maxie said she needed his cyber assistance. Spinelli said he would
help Maxie with her computer problem but that was all. She replied that he meant much more to her than just tech support. Disappointed, Maxie walked out.
On the docks, Alexis bumped into Robin and joined her on the bench to enjoy the beautiful day. Alexis offered Robin a brownie and asked how Emma was. The women chatted about motherhood. Robin asked Alexis if she had any regrets. Alexis admitted there are some days where she wants to scream — and does — but she loved being a mother. Alexis told Robin that she needs to find balance. "From one perfectionist to another, Robin, give yourself a break," Alexis advised. "Breathe, and know that you're going to be okay."
Jason went by Carly's house and Jax told Jason that Carly was pregnant. He asked Jason not to do or say anything that would upset Carly. "You mean like the fact that Jerry was partly responsible for what happened to Michael?" Jason asked. Jason demanded to know if Jax knew where Jerry was. He said he didn't and asked Jason to drop it. Jason countered that Michael deserved
better than that, then left. Later, Jax went through the delivery of baby goods from the store when Kelly called regarding Carly's test results. Just then, Carly came home.
Ethan helped Lulu find a spot for the chair in the apartment. Lulu tripped and fell into Ethan's arms. Maxie walked in and thought they were an item. Not wanting to get in the middle, Ethan bid the girls a hasty adieu. Maxie sighed that she missed Spinelli; Lulu stated that Maxie got exactly what she deserved.
At G.H., Patrick found out from Dr. Brown that Robin skipped her therapy session. Robin returned to a messy home and decided to clean the house. Later, Patrick returned home, where Robin showed off her new organizational system — and Patrick caught her in a lie about what she did with her day.
At the Penthouse, Spinelli tracked down Jerry's location and told Jason that Jerry was in Port Charles.... Alexis showed up at Sonny's and was stunned to come face-to-face with Jerry.
Thursday
Patrick caught Robin in a bold-faced lie when he confronted her about skipping her therapy appointment. "Happy now?" Robin asked. "You caught me." Robin accused Patrick of following her but he admitted that he found out by accident. Robin suggested they both see the therapist. Patrick said fine and he called the shrink. The couple went to see the doctor, where Robin vocalized her resistance to therapy. When the session began, Patrick
admitted that he was frustrated and the doc asked if he was ever tempted to just walk away. He copped that after seeing his wife with another man in Rochester, he wanted to explode. Robin broke into tears and assured Patrick that she still wants him. Later at G.H., they both admitted that therapy helped. Just then, a wheelchair came tumbling down the steps.
Jax handed the phone over to Carly and Kelly requested that they meet to discuss her test results. Carly said okay and assured Jax that the baby was fine.
At the penthouse, Jason was surprised when Spinelli informed him that Jerry was back in town. Sonny showed up and Jason filled him in. Sonny demanded that they find Jerry immediately. Spinelli left the men alone and Sonny informed Jason in that Claudia's pregnant. Jason thought the timing was suspicious.
At Casa de Corinthos, Jerry told Alexis that he missed her while he was away. Jerry stated that he returned in order to belatedly make amends. "You really are insane," Alexis uttered, unaware that Claudia was eavesdropping. They argued about the night of Michael's shooting and Alexis asked point-blank whose idea it was to target Sonny in the first place. Jerry declined to name a name but Alexis wondered if it might be Claudia. Jerry warned Alexis to stay out of it for her own safety, then walked out. Alexis went after him, and Claudia chased after them both.
At the Haunted Star, Luke was upset that Tracy accused Ethan of being his son. Tracy relayed how she believed that Holly had schooled him to take Luke for all of Tracy's money. Tracy was shocked when she realized that Luke was actually hoping that Ethan was indeed his son. Ethan entered and Luke asked if he'd heard from Holly. Luke said he was thinking of calling her and Ethan said that would be a great idea. Tracy then ordered Ethan out and Luke admitted he liked the idea of Ethan being his son.
Claudia returned to the house and and ordered a car bomb be placed in Jerry's vehicle. Claudia told the assailant she'd pay him whatever he wanted. Ric entered and wondered what she was up to. Claudia poured him a drink, then tossed it in his face. She reminded him that he had no proof that she was involved in Michael's shooting. Ric then poured Claudia a drink. When she didn't accept it, he rationalized that either the liquor was poisoned or she was pregnant. He called her "Brilliant."
On the docks, Alexis told Jax about her visit with Jerry. She stated that she followed him and Jerry said if she wanted answers, she could meet him later at the 10th Street Garage. Jax advised his friend to just let Jerry go so they could wash their hands of him forever.
Sonny went to Carly's and told his ex that Claudia was pregnant. Carly was not thrilled with the news, then she told Sonny that she was with child, too. Sonny was happy for her, adding that he remains committed to Michael. He and Carly agreed to being Michael back to GH. After Sonny left, Carly called Kelly, who informed her that she did indeed have a blood disorder. Jax walked in and asked, "What's wrong?" Meanwhile, Sonny returned home and walked in on Ric proposing a toast to Claudia's baby.
Sam met with Jason and offered to provide backup when he goes after Jerry. Jason thanked her but declined the offer. Sam wondered if Jerry was trying to set up Claudia, then Jason informed her of Claudia's pregnancy. Sam was taken aback. "It's a huge mess," Jason admitted. Spinelli called and informed Jason that Jerry was at the 10th St. Garage. Jason met up with Jerry and pulled a gun on him. He then demanded the car keys. When Jason
clicked on the remote, Jerry's car exploded.
Friday
Kelly confirmed that Carly has CPT and warned the mom-to-be that she's in danger. Jax asked if something was wrong with the baby because Carly looked so emotional. She blamed it on hormones, and Jax rambled on about their miracle baby. Carly said she was so happy to be able to give him a child.
In the parking garage, Jerry and Jason were both lying unconscious near Jerry's flaming car. Alexis came upon the wreck and called 911. She checked their pulses and reported that both men were alive. Meanwhile, Sonny noticed that Claudia had a smug look on her face. While Sonny was at the hospital, Ric accused Claudia of trying to pass off his baby as Sonny's.
Jax came running when Alexis called to say Jerry was admitted to the hospital, while Carly met with Kelly. The doctor suggested that Carly terminate the pregnancy because the medication she needs for the clotting factor could harm the baby. Carly was certain that she could carry the baby to term and explained that Jax is so thrilled and she can't let him down. Despite Kelly's continued warnings, Carly demanded that Kelly help her have this baby. Kelly revealed that there are some experimental treatments for her condition that might help.
Jax went into Jerry's room and threatened his unconscious brother. After he swore he'd pull the plug if there was one, Jerry's eyes opened. When Jax returned, Jerry was gone.
At the diner, Mike remarked how unsettling it is that Rebecca looks so much like Emily and warned Nikolas to be careful. Rebecca showed up and Nikolas tried to apologize for accusing her of associating with Helena. While Elizabeth and Nikolas were having coffee, Lucky blew in and announced that he's taking Rebecca on a date whether they like it or not. When Rebecca came downstairs and sat down, Elizabeth pointed out that she's sitting in Emily's chair.
Since Patrick was busy in the ER, Robin agreed to bring Emma in for her checkup, insisting that everything would be fine now that she's on her antidepressants. But while Robin was getting the tot ready, she remarked how glad she is to not be on those pills anymore. Nevertheless, she managed to get Emma to her appointment just fine. Afterward, she revealed to Kelly that she cured her PPD all her on her own. Kelly called Robin irresponsible and while they were arguing, Robin stepped back and sent the stroller with Emma in it tumbling down the stairs.
Dr. Hensen confused Sonny with her fancy doctor talk but Sonny just wanted the truth: Will Michael wake up? She revealed that there's a 6 to 10 percent chance that will happen. While sitting alone with Michael, Sonny squeezed his son's hand and asked for a sign to let him know what he should do.
When Carly heard from Epiphany that Jason is in the ER, she rushed down to see her BFF. The stress of seeing Jason caused her to collapse.
