Monday
Robin asked Robert to walk her down the aisle. Robert told her he couldn't; he didn't have the right. Robin assured Robert that even though Mac was close to her, Robert was always her father. He told her he'd think about it, then went out for a walk, confusing Robin. Patrick and Anna arrived with food. Anna assured Robin that he'd come around and then was caught off guard when Robin asked her to be matron of honor. After a few moments of apprehension she said yes.
Jason held a dying Sasha and demanded she tell him where Sam was. Sasha whispered "white lock" before fading out. Jason took her phone and ran off. Luke arrived at the docks looking for his cuban cigar dealer, who claimed to have bursitis, then stumbled upon a dead Sasha, just as Robert walked by. "Nice work, Spencer," he said. After exchanging witty quips, the two headed for a bar but were stopped by cops. Mac arrived just as the pals were being arrested. "If I wasn't so happy to see you I'd punch your lights out," Mac
told Robert. Mac didn't know why Robert was in town, then mentioned that he arrested the cigar dealer while he was at the free clinic looking for bursitis cream.
Spinelli made some phone calls to see if Jason was alright. Spinelli called a Red Alert just as Jason walked in the door. Meanwhile, Sam dreamt that when Elizabeth's children were kidnapped she didn't just let it happen. In the dream, Elizabeth thanked Sam for saving Jake. Sam woke up. She tried to get up but was in pain and fell to the ground. Jason stormed in and told her she was going to be alright. Spinelli went to get help. Sam was tired, and Jason tried to get her to stay awake by talking. She told him about the dreams she had and apologized to Jason for what she'd done in the past.
Morgan was happy to see Sonny. Morgan asked Sonny and Carly if Michael knew it was Christmastime. Sonny assured Morgan that Michael wanted Morgan to be happy. When Morgan went upstairs to get Sonny's present, Carly told Sonny that she didn't want Morgan to grow up lonely and missing his father and brother and told Sonny she hoped they could heal. Sonny wanted to be able to see Morgan more often, but Carly didn't feel comfortable. She explained that
although she still maintains a friendship with Jason, he doesn't come to the house and doesn't see Morgan. Carly told told Sonny she didn't want to fight. Carly explained to Sonny that if he wanted to see Morgan he would have to keep him safe and understand that he has a life in his hands. Morgan came down and showed Sonny an ornament he made. Sonny smiled as they put it on the tree.
Claudia watched the DVD again. Panicked, she started looking around the house and was startled when Ric walked in. She explained that she was looking for Michael's broken ornament. Ric found it and noticed the DVD case. Claudia brought Ric upstairs, but Ric was concerned that there was
something going on. After sleeping together, Ric told Claudia not to get on Sonny's bad side. Sonny came home to Claudia lying on the couch. "Merry Christmas, Mrs. Corinthos," Sonny told his wife.
At Metro Court, Jax ran into Kate and told her he was going to Australia for the holidays. Taken aback, Kate said she was hoping they could spend the holidays together. Jax suggested Kate visit her family, an idea she nixed. Carly and Morgan arrived bearing mistletoe. Morgan told them they were supposed to kiss — so they did.
Back at Robin and Patrick's, the entire Scorpio clan (sans Maxie) ate dinner. It was agreed that Robert would walk Robin down the aisle. Robin toasted to her family, and they all said "to family."
Tuesday
Spinelli walked by the docks and found a Santa Claus ornament on the ground. When he got home, he was caught off guard to find Santa Claus waiting for him — he needed help with his cell phone! Santa asked Spinelli to fix his phone and find out what everyone wanted for Christmas by midnight. When Maxie arrived, Santa disappeared. A skeptical Maxie wondered what had gotten into Spinelli, but then believed him when they found Santa's suit.
Lucky, Lulu and Nikolas all got together at the Spencer house. Luke unexpectedly arrived with pizza and a Christmas tree. Spinelli and Maxie showed up and asked what everyone wanted for Christmas. Spinelli and Maxie heard sleigh bells and a key appeared in his pocket! He gave it to Lulu, telling her it would give her a perfect Christmas. After they left, the
Spencers began to decorate the tree. Luke told the kids a story about how he and Laura looked for the perfect tree topper angel. Lucky came downstairs with some decorations and Christmas memorabilia. Lulu noticed a locked box
and following a hunch, used Spinelli's key. Inside the box was the angel Luke and Laura bought all those years ago! Luke was happy when Laura called. As Lulu put the angel on the tree, the family wished Laura a Merry Christmas over the phone.
Robin bit Patrick's head off when he showed up at the apartment with eggnog lattes but not anything he was supposed to pick up, including dessert. A frantic Robin couldn't find her special necklace. Robert and Anna arrived, followed by Maxie and Spinelli. Spinelli gave Robin a small white bag. When they left, Robin opened the bag to find some cookies. When Anna, Robert and Robin tried one, the room lit up. Robin realized that they were the same recipe that her grandmother used to make but never got to write down. Patrick went to take a cookie and dropped it under the couch. When he knelt down to pick it up, he found Philomena's necklace! Robin told the story of her grandmother's necklace and kissed Patrick. Later, the couple enjoyed their time together with baby Emma.
Diane and Max met on the docks. Diane could have sworn she saw deer on the roof of Metro Court. Diane was angry when Max booked a room at Metro Court; she wanted to spend it at Max's house, but Sonny had some "associates"
staying there. Diane nearly called herself Max's girlfriend and then ran off. Spinelli and Maxie came by the docks and gave Max a pawnshop ticket.
Diane vented to Bernie about Max as he set up his menorah. Bernie told Diane that the holidays are a time to think about family and spend time with your loved ones. Bernie asked Diane what Max liked to do for Christmas, and she
wasn't sure. Maxie and Spinelli arrived with a gift for Diane: a phone. Diane spoke to Max over the phone and ran off to find him. Spinelli then handed Bernie a gift. Bernie lit the menorah.
Diane arrived at the docks to find that Max had decorated them with candles. The two shared a passionate kiss. Max gave Diane a beautiful snow globe that he got from a pawnshop. Maxie and Spinelli walked by and sang "Jingle
Bells."
The Scrooge-like Quartermaines were none too pleased when Alice showed up with eggnog and a tree. Edward reminisced about Lila. Tracy remained a Grinch until Alan showed up as her conscience again. He asked Tracy to tell Monica he loved her. Spinelli and Maxie showed up and Spinelli took a gift out of his pocket: reading glasses. Cranky Edward and Tracy left for the hospital Christmas party. Monica didn't want to take the glasses so Spinelli left them under the tree. Out of
curiosity, Monica tried on the glasses — and saw Alan! Alan told Monica to stay strong, to which she replied that Alan was still a pompous ass. The two argued in their loving way and embraced.
Spinelli and Maxie returned to the penthouse to find Santa waiting for them. After taking a picture with Santa, Maxie took off to see Mac. The next morning, Spinelli and Maxie woke up to find a gift: their picture with Santa! The two wished each other — and everybody — a Merry Christmas.

Sam woke up to Lucky standing at her bedside. "Jason?" she asked. She quickly tried to cover her tracks but would not apologize for getting herself into another mess. Lucky left. At home, Sam told Alexis how she had a dream about her and how it helped her stay alive. When Alexis found Lucky at the apartment, they told her they faked the breakup. Once Alexis left, Sam asked Lucky what was really going on between them. Lucky called the kids to wish them a Merry Christmas. He then told Sam he still loved her and they kissed.
Spinelli was relieved to find Jason home safe and sound. After talking business, Spinelli asked about Jason's relationship with Sonny. Maxie arrived to pick up Spinelli and told Jason she was worried that disaster would strike at the wedding. "Something terrible's going to happen to Robin and Patrick before they get married!" Maxie exclaimed as the lights flickered!
Sonny ordered a shipment to go to one of Jason's territories. Claudia overheard and warned Sonny he was asking for trouble. The two debated Sonny's motivations. Claudia didn't think it was a good idea to go to Robin's wedding. He then brought up the subject of the secret Claudia was keeping. Claudia covered by telling Sonny that she'd been sneaking around because Sonny didn't want sex. He didn't seem to care. Claudia didn't believe in true love. Sonny began to tell Claudia the story of Robin and Stone but then decided she wouldn't understand and left for the wedding.
Claudia watched the video again and tried to figure out where Jerry hid the DVD. As she looked around the house, Jason walked in. Jason demanded that she tell him what she was looking for. Claudia dismissed herself in a huff. Jason saw an ornament on the tree with Michael's picture.
Patrick told Emma about the exciting day ahead. Maxie arrived
in a frenzy with something for Patrick and told him not to go anywhere near the hospital. Maxie took the baby and told Patrick to go to the church. Robin enjoyed her breakfast while Maxie remained hyper and panicked. Mac arrived and showed Maxie to the door. As Mac watched Robin with her baby, he remembered back to when Robin told him she was HIV+. Mac told Robin he was always afraid that this day would never come. Robin and Anna got ready for the wedding. Outside, Mac tried to calm down a
nervous Robert. He admitted he was scared and thanked Mac for being there for Robin through the major events in her life. When Robin had a moment alone, she recalled showing Stone her mother's wedding mantia veil. Robin was happy when Sonny knocked on her door. The two discussed Stone. Sonny told Robin that she had turned into the most amazing woman and that she was so lucky for finding happiness.
Sonny found Patrick at the church. He told Patrick that he wasn't
going to stay for the wedding because of the potential danger. Sonny then told Patrick how important it was that Robin be happy. Patrick promised he'd give her everything she deserves. The two shook hands. After Sonny left, Robert sat down next to Patrick. Robert asked Patrick what he would want the man marrying Emma to say to him. Patrick told him that he would want that man to love her, honor her, make her happy and never take her for granted. Patrick told Robert that's what he wanted for Robin. Matt showed up putting on his tuxedo, excited for his brother. Patrick told his little brother how excited he was to marry Robin.
Claudia watched the video again and tried to figure out where Jerry hid the DVD. As she looked around the house, Jason walked in. Jason demanded that she tell him what she was looking for. Claudia dismissed herself in a huff. Jason saw an ornament on the tree with Michael's picture. Sonny came in and Jason asked him to end his alliance with the Zaccharas.
Luke arrived to give Robert a pep-talk. Anna saw Luke and warned Robert that he had better not be planning his getaway. The two got serious and Anna apologized to Robert for depriving him of Robin's first few years. Maxie interrupted the quiet moment by announcing that a catastrophe was inevitable. Patrick knocked on Robin's door and recalled the first time he met Robin. He opened the door to find his beautiful daughter ready for her wedding.
Patrick greeted the guests at the wedding. Edward congratulated Patrick for being on time to his own wedding. Epiphany was grateful that the courtship was over. Spinelli tried to convince Maxie everything was all right. As the ceremony began, all of Port Charles watched as Robin walked down the aisle. Maxie prayed that nothing bad would happen. Robin and Patrick prepared to say "I do!"
