He says he knows what it's like to see a man who isn't one's father come into the life of a child and hurt its mother and he won't let that happen either.

Alexis shows up at the PCPD for a beatdown from not just Emily, but Elizabeth too. She says she has to help Carly, plus she can't represent Nik because it's a conflict of interest. The girls loathe the fact she chose Carly over her own nephew. I wish they'd just get over themselves.

should tell him right now. For once, Sam is all out of
words.

On the boat, Faith tells Justus she wants to make him an
offer.

And in a move I'm still trying to figure out, I think he kind of touches her hair, or her neck or something. It looks like a goodbye wave to Carly, but it was just really... um... unexpected. More sparks in that moment than what we were supposed to sense in the earlier scene between husband & wife team Journey.
