Act I
Michael wakes up long enough to ask Jason if his plan worked.

Georgie and Dillon find the dead body.

Skye and Luke use false flattery on Edward to keep him away from the boathouse.

Dillon and Georgie bust into the Q living room to call the cops. Edward calmly asks how the guy died; who he was and if they know who did it. Dillon suggests maybe they call the cops but Edward says no -- if someone in the family killed the guy, they've got to think up a cover-up.

Mary and Nikolas go back to the church to retrieve his cross. She asks why it's so special to him. He says it's because she gave it to him.

Sonny threatens to take Kristina away from Alexis just because he can. Ric steps in and asks if she wants to press charges. She says no. Carly says that Alexis is the one who should be arrested for harrassing Sonny. She says that the lies should end now. Alexis looks at her witheringly.

Act II
Georgie, Edward and Dillon go to meet Lucky & another officer at the boathouse. When Lucky goes inside he comes out and announces there's a problem -- there's no body.

At the Qs, Skye and Luke decide to put the dead guy in the basement. Alice is in the living room though, so Skye has to convince her to leave. Once she does, Skye and Luke drag the body through.

Jason tells Michael in a roundabout way his plan sort of worked. Courtney shows up and says she wants to see Carly but Jason would prefer she go home and quit bugging them. He'll call with any news.

Alexis tells Ric, Carly and Sonny that what Ric might not know is that Michael was admitted to the hospital tonight and that she clearly picked the wrong time to go over something from the custody trial with Carly. Carly insists Alexis is still in love with Sonny. Alexis leaves and waits in the background. For Ric, perhaps? Once alone with the toxic twosome, Ric says he's sorry that Michael was hurt. Sonny tells Ric if he goes near Michael he'll snap him like a twig.

At the church Mary asks Nik why it's so important for him to have found the cross. He says he wants to stay and pray. On the steps Emily shows up and asks what Mary is doing there.

Act III
Alexis is seated at Kelly's when Ric sits down. She asks why he's following her. "Is there a panic room in my future?," she queries. He smiles. He tells her she should understand about being pushed to the limits and going to extremes. She still wants to know what he wants.

At the church, Nikolas prays for guidance. He says he wants to help Mary but not at the expense of his own soul. He's about to go outside and run smack-dab into Emily when he sees the priest instead.

Outside, Emily is about to enter the church and run smack-dab into Nikolas. Mary suggests they go have coffee somewhere.

At the hospital the doctors tell the C's that Michael might have to have an operation if his kidney starts bleeding. They're all worried, inasmuch as they can focus on something other than themselves. Jason shows up and they update him.

Lucky thinks Dillon & Georgie lied and wants to take them downtown.

Skye and Luke put Ross in the freezer and hope for the best.

Act IV
At Kelly's, Alexis is more interested in her palm pilot than Ric. He tells her she needs to put herself in a public bubble & take on some high-profile cases. She says as a matter of fact she just took Eileen Sheridan's case. Ric says it was armed robbery; Alexis claims police brutality. Alexis tells Ric it's always nice to see him (sarcastic of course), then leaves. He calls the office and tells them he wants to take on the case and prosecute it himself.

At the PCPD Dillon and Georgie face the wrath of Mac and Felicia whose first comment isn't to pat them on the back for doing the right thing but rather to ask why they were in the Q boathouse in the first place.

Carly visits Michael and tells him when he's recovered they have to have a talk. He tells her if she gets back together with Sonny he'll stop doing things like this.

Lorenzo waits. Jason wishes he wouldn't. Courtney shows up. Jason wants her gone too. She wants Lorenzo gone. She remarks that loving Michael really brought a whole lot of people together.

Act V
Emily tells Mary she was in love with Nikolas since she was a teenager. Mary says the same about Connor. Emily remarks about how lucky they are to have found the men they loved way back in high school and to have gotten the chance to spend time with them at all.

Sonny visits Michael. Michael apologizes. Sonny tells him he needs to be a man; take care of his family; not worry them. Michael apologizes again and asks if he can come home yet.

Sam shows up and Lorenzo fills her in on Michael's condition.

Skye and Luke drink coffee at Kelly's. Luke thinks the police will write Dillon & Georgie's stunt off as a silly prank.

At the PCPD, Mac apparently hasn't learned what happens when he doesn't trust the young girl in his life to make a responsible decision. Like Robin before her, Mac forbids Georgie to see Dillon. It didn't work a decade ago; it ain't gonna work now.

Act VI
Michael tells Jason that Sonny didn't answer him when he asked if they could come home.

Courtney looks wistfully at Jason and Michael.

Lorenzo tells Carly he'll leave if she wants him to. She says she doesn't know why he bothers with her. He says he loves her. She goes into his arms for a hug and he reluctantly embraces her.

Sonny tells Sam if she hadn't told Alcazar that Michael was missing, he wouldn't have been saved in time. He then tells her that Michael wants to come home but that the home he wants doesn't exist anymore; his marriage to Carly is irrevocably altered and it's just over.

Nik talks to the priest who tells him to do what he thinks is right. Nik tells Mary he won't turn himself in; he'll give them a chance.
