Tracy, Luke and Ethan flew home aboard the ELQ jet without Holly, but Luke vowed not to give up on her. Tracy suggested playing 21, with the winner asking a question the loser must answer truthfully. Winner Ethan asked Tracy why she hates him. She said she doesn't hate him, she just doesn't trust him. Tracy won next, and asked Luke why he chose that dive bar in Singapore. Luke said it had sentimental value. Back in Port Charles, Lulu found Johnny on the deserted Haunted Star, looking over the books as he mulled selling his shares to Sonny. Johnny told Lulu that Michael had an operation, but hasn't woken up yet. After the flight, Luke was enjoying a drink at the Star when Holly strolled in and told him they need to celebrate "their own little blessed event."

Jason wondered if Ric and Claudia were working together, and when Jason set out to warn Sonny, Claudia suffered abdominal pains. Jason noted Ric's genuine concern before Claudia threw Ric out. Claudia suggested Ric might try to steal her baby. Jason related how Sonny would never hurt the mother of his child, but she doesn't deserve to be alive. He accused her of hiring the shooters, and noted, "Baby or no baby, you are gonna pay." Claudia insisted there's no evidence. He claimed she gave herself away by hiring Fredo to bomb Jerry's car. He said when he finds Fredo, the incompetent hitter will sing.

At G.H., Jax voiced his concerns about Carly's health to Olivia, who said Carly needs his support. And he also has to make her understand that she needs to take care of herself and her unborn child. At Michael's bedside, Carly told Sonny that they need to believe in Michael, but he was skeptical. Jax brought in Liv and suggested they talk. "I'm not giving up on my son," Carly maintained. Liv advised her to go home and rest, and Jax backed her up, but Carly was defiant — even when Sonny joined the chorus. Carly accused everyone of giving up on Michael. Sonny left, followed by Liv, but Jax refused to be pushed away. He reminded her that she's risking her own life — and their child's. She reluctantly agreed to go home and rest. At the hub, Monica told Edward that Michael won't wake up. Edward lamented not fighting Sonny harder for Michael. When Monica was paged, Rebecca came over and hugged Edward. She maintained that she knows all about regret. He said she reminds him so much of Emily. Nikolas wandered by and brought her back to Wyndemere. There, Alexis burst in and scolded him for hanging with Rebecca. "Helena is setting you up!" she wailed. Then she demanded to know what Rebecca did in Greece. In the G.H. chapel, Sonny prayed that Carly won't have to pay for his mistakes the way Michael is. Olivia came in, and remarked how Sonny always found solace in churches. She said every kid deserves a good life and a family that loves him. He lamented his stupidity for getting Claudia pregnant. He vowed not to repeat the same mistakes with Michael. Liv urged him to give his child with Claudia all his love. Claudia, meanwhile, cautioned Jason to consider what sowing dissent between her and Sonny will do to the baby. Then Sonny returned and asked what was going on. Jax brought Carly home, and admitted he stopped work on Michael's room. She remarked how everything reminds her of Michael. She recalled that the last time she saw Michael she yelled at him. She promised to take care of herself and their little girl, but fretted about not being there when Michael wakes up. When she saw a photo of Michael, she swooned. Back at the hospital, Lulu visited Michael and said, "I can't believe how much you've grown." (Wink, wink.) She took his hand — and he squeezed it! She looked up to see his eyes were open! "What happened?" he croaked. "What happened to me?"
