GH Week of July 27, 2009
Monday
At G.H., Jax turned on the television and cuddled with a recovering Carly, who admitted that her brush with death made her realize just how lucky she is. She closed her eyes just as Jax looked up and saw Michael's mug shot on the news. They made plans to steer clear from all the drama and focus on a stress free life together when she gets out of the hospital. Johnny stopped by and informed Jax that Claudia's baby isn't going to make it. Jax relayed the news to a stunned Carly, who acknowledged what a tragedy it is and vowed to Jax that she'd take care of herself so they don't have to go through anything like it. Jax stepped out and Kelly informed him that Carly can't know about Michael's involvement because her blood pressure is already dangerously high and she could have a stroke if she's agitated anymore.
Meanwhile, an emotional Claudia admitted to Sonny that being pregnant has changed her and she was in love with the idea of raising their child. He held her hand and they watched the monitor as the fetus's heartbeat slowed. Sonny admitted he doesn't know to help Claudia; she advised him to go to the chapel. Claudia cried and wondered if it's punishment for all the terrible things she's done to others in the past. Johnny came by. Claudia told him the baby is gone and asked him to find the person who is responsible for killing her son. "I need to know he's going to pay," she declared.

Later, Michael admitted his behavior was out of control and took the blame for hurting Claudia. Jason urged him to cut himself some slack and follow his lead on how to handle the situation.
Sam tried to comfort a distraught and depressed Kristina, who was still reeling from her fight with he boyfriend. Sam encouraged her little sister to face the bad things and tried to get to the bottom of her anger toward Alexis. She tried to tell the teen that being a rebel isn't what it's cracked up to be and that there's nothing worse than getting caught up in a web of lies. Alexis came home and informed them that Michael might go to prison because he fled the scene of the crime. Kristina demanded that her mom help him. "You're the DA!" she cried and ran out. Sam explained to Alexis that Kristina was also emotional and on the road when the accident happened, adding that she could be the one who caused it, not Michael.
Back at G.H., Kelly explained to Claudia that the surgery she had didn't harm the baby, but that the pressure from her seat belt during the crash did. Elizabeth gave her condolences to Claudia, pointing out that she's had two miscarriages and knows what it's like. Claudia refused to be pitied. In the waiting room, Jax informed Jason that Claudia lost her baby. Carly's monitors started beeping and her blood pressure spiked again. She panicked when she saw Michael on the news and said she needs to make things right, adding that she can't believe the police are blaming innocent Michael for the accident. "The car I saw run Claudia off the road was not Michael's!" she explained.
Sonny went to the chapel and said a prayer for his son. "Make me remember what I did and didn't do," he added. Johnny approached and informed him that he knows Michael caused the accident. He explained that Jason called Jax with the news. Sonny felt immediately responsible, adding that Carly warned him not to buy Michael a car and the kid shouldn't have been behind the wheel at all. "I need to deal with this now!" he said.

Then they shared a tender moment as Johnny told her that she would have been a great mother. Meanwhile, Sonny went to see Michael and demanded that his son explain what happened. Michael admitted that he did run Claudia off the road and drove away but didn't know it was her. Sonny called him an irresponsible coward for not stopping to check if everyone was okay.
