At the Quartermaine mansion, Michael told Edward his night's adventure was no big deal, but Tracy revealed that Michael caused a brawl at the country club, prompting Sonny to threaten the director. Tracy noted Michael is a Corinthos, not a Quartermaine. At the penthouse, Jason feared Michael could be destroyed by the realization that he caused Claudia's accident. Sam suggested it could have been Kristina, but asked what if it was Michael? "What else can I do but cover for him?" he replied. "It was an accident." Sam balked at covering up manslaughter, but agreed to keep quiet. At the lake house, Kristina told her mother she merely assumed another car was involved, Alexis noted there was no evidence of another car. Then Kris said, "I have to make a confession." She revealed that she was with Keifer. Alexis gave her credit for being honest, and didn't ground her. At the accident scene, Lucky found another set of skid marks, and Mac figured out another driver caused the accident. Mac called Alexis and told her there would be an investigation. Kris summoned Michael and told him another car was involved in Claudia's crash on Harbor View Road. He confessed he went nuts behind the wheel and almost hit a car. "It had to be Claudia," he admitted. Later, Alexis asked Sam to come to her office and told her she went to Mayor Floyd's house and got into an argument with Andrea — on security cameras. She wondered if Spinelli could erase the tapes. Sam noted that Floyd lives on Harbor View Road, and Alexis was there around 9 p.m.

At G.H., Claudia asked everyone to leave so she could deal with the "catastrophe" with her husband. Claudia bemoaned actually being happy for once, and feared she and the baby could die. Sonny promised to stay by her side, but she has to fight — and she has to win. When Johnny returned, she told her brother she would work it out with Sonny. In the lobby, Olivia told Carly she feels guilty because at the time of the accident, she had her tongue down Sonny's throat. "I really hope you know what you're doing," Carly warned. Liv admitted kissing him was hypocritical and wrong. "Nothing tastes sweeter than forbidden fruit," Carly acknowledged. "I know the Sonny drill. You fall hard." She asked what Liv would do if Sonny was free and showed up at her door? Sonny walked up and said he wants to know the answer to that one, too. Olivia deferred her answer while his wife and child were fighting for their lives, then left. Sonny recapped about the paternity question, and how part of him wanted Ric to be the daddy so he could walk away from the marriage. He returned to Claudia with Patrick and Robin, and Patrick cautioned — pending test results — that he may have to "intervene" with her head trauma, and that could harm the baby. Johnny wanted to what's best for his sister. Sonny followed Patrick and Robin to the Hub, and demanded to know his baby's chances. "The baby is at risk, no matter what," Robin said. When Jason arrived, Sonny told him Johnny told him about the amnio — right after catching him kissing Liv. Sonny vowed to step up and be the father his baby deserves. He dispatched Jason to tell Olivia how he feels. Sonny returned to Claudia. Then Patrick and Kelly revealed that Claudia's head trauma needs "intervention." Surgery is possible, but the safest option for Claudia is medication, they explained. Since the drug could cause a miscarriage, Claudia flatly refused to take it. Later, Robin collided with Patrick on the stairs, injuring one of his fingers!

Olivia returned home to find Dante waiting. She reminded him she loves him, and ordered him out of town. She noted she makes stupid personal choices, and Dante figured out she has hooked up with a married man — but he's not judging her. Then Jason knocked on the door. Meanwhile, Carly went home to tell Morgan about Claudia's accident. He called her a hero. Then Carly abruptly collapsed.
