Act I
Carly invites Sam into the gazebo. She asks what she's doing in the rain walking in the park. She says it was a coincidence. No one believes her. Michael insults her; Carly insults her; she takes off.

Jax asks Emily how far along Sam is. Emily says she couldn't tell him, even if she knew. Jax has a flashback of the last time they had sex. Jax and Emily leave.

Mary asks Lorenzo not to tell Nikolas the truth. He asks why not. She explains that her husband died in Iraq and when Nikolas came along it was a chance to fill the emptiness and it really worked. If Lorenzo tells the truth she'll lose that. Lorenzo says he'll keep the secret and do "Connor's" paperwork.

Jason tells Courtney that Carly needs a friend. Courtney doesn't get how he can just turn off his feelings. She says her attorney wants her to change back to Matthews from Morgan. Jason says maybe she should.

Act II
Luke shows up at the Qs and tells Skye that Laura disappeared from the hospital and spent one night at a motel close by. Apparently she switched IDs with a new patient and it took the staff awhile to catch on. Skye asks if Laura might've killed Ross. Lucky heads to the station to check on a lead.

Lorenzo asks Sage if the Qs know something about her that he doesn't. Sage says he's not going to like it. Sage says it's all Tracy's fault. Dillon shows up and asks Tracy why Sage is there. Sage looks at Dillon. Lorenzo looks at Sage.

Mary returns to the church after having left dinner early. She tells Nik she doesn't want him to take the job. Nik asks why.

Sonny, Carly and Michael return to the penthouse. Carly asks Sonny if he wants to go see Sam. Sonny says nothing will get in the way of the time he spends with his family.

Sam writes goodbye notes to Jason, Sonny, etc.

Act III
Luke tells Skye the last time he saw Laura she was staring at a wall. Skye asks if she could've killed Ross. Luke says maybe he's being led to think Laura's recovered.

Nikolas and Mary argue over whether or not he should take the job with Lorenzo.

Courtney shows up at the penthouse. Sonny doesn't kick her out but goes upstairs. Carly tells Courtney this is a perfect excuse for Sonny to call Sam.

Sonny indeed calls Sam. She doesn't pick up the phone. Jax shows up and asks to come in. She lets him in and he asks if he's the father of her baby.

Nik phones Mary and says he's picking up his check, then leaving.

Emily and Jason enter the church and discuss Sam and her pregnancy some more.

Act IV
Sam tells Jax that it's been over between them for a really long time & he just needs to accept it. He says if the kid's his there's no way he wants it around Sonny. He also points out she has a lot of incentive to lie about the paternity in order to hold onto Sonny.

Courtney tells Carly she can't live this way just for her sons. Sonny eavesdrops. He then comes down the stairs in a black leather jacket and tells Courtney it's time for her to leave. She plays the "I'm Carly's best friend and the boys' aunt" card but he says that he is being civil by simply not kicking her out. She leaves on her own. Carly is not too impressed with him.

Jason and Emily continue to discuss Sam's pregnancy in the church. I'm surprised the walls aren't bleeding. Jason takes off; Emily decides to stay.

Nikolas tells Mary that he wants to make things work with her but he needs the independance offered by Lorenzo & his job.

Skye and Luke discuss the Laura situation until Luke leaves with Lucky to go use the police computer.

Act V
Rosie gets away from Courtney and flies into Jason. Jason and Courtney start screaming at each other again. He says it's easier for her to seem to him like someone he used to know rather than someone he knows now because it's just too hard to think of how she betrayed him.

Mary tells Nikolas to take the job.

Carly tells Sonny that she wants him to compromise where Courtney is concerned. He takes off. Michael wonders why.

Tracy proposes a toast to Lorenzo who proposes one right back to her - dedicates it to a woman who has nothing better to do than blackmail teenage girls. Tracy leaves the room, embarrassed. Dillon tries to calm her down. Ned asks Lorenzo to be an investor in L&B as Dillon looks on. Lorenzo says he will -- with one condition.

Act VI
Lorenzo says he'll invest if Ned gives Sage an audition. If he likes her voice he wants her to have the best of everything which includes Dillon directing her video. Sage is thrilled. Dillon? Not so much.

Nikolas stops by the church to get his pay check. He sees Emily sleeping on a pew and approaches her with a candle in his hand.

Skye heads to the gazebo in the park and is scared when a figure shrouded in black holds up a big shiny knife.

Sonny goes to see Sam on the boat but finds instead a note. hee - that rhymes!

Jax shows up to see Carly at the penthouse. She says she's had as much of Sam as she can stomach. Jax says - so you know everything. Carly isn't sure what constitutes everything.

Jason tells Courtney he's sick of this, and, very much like their first kiss, pulls him to her and kisses her.

Preview
Jason says he shouldn't have kissed Courtney. She asks why not
