Monica sees Tracy looking at Joe's medallion. She asks Tracy what is going on with her and the "hanger on." Tracy informs Monica that she has asked Joe to move in. Monica says she is going to run a background check. She asks Tracy what Joe's last name is. All Tracy knows is that it begins with "S" because of the initials on the medallion. Monica can't believe that Tracy is bringing home another stray after Anthony Zacchara. Tracy assures Monica that Joe isn't deranged, vengeful, or a mobster. Monica tells her she should find out his last name if she is going to do anything more than sleep with him. Kristina tells Sonny that she married Trey as a grand finale for the reality show so that Trey's father wouldn't lose all the money he invested. Sonny wants to see Trey's father. Kristina says he can't. Alexis comes home with the news that Jax survived. Sonny breaks the news to Alexis that Kristina married Trey. Alexis immediately sets her mind on getting Kristina's marriage annulled. Kristina manages to convince Sonny not to confront Trey. Michael tells Kate about Kristina's nuptials. He reveals his concern that Trey didn't just marry Kristina for money, but that it has to do with his father's association with Sonny. He says he thinks it is part of a plot to get back at Sonny and asks Kate if she knows anyone from Brooklyn that might have a grudge. She says she knows one person, but he doesn't have a son and his name isn't Mitchell. Trey tells Joe that Kristina thinks they are going to annul the marriage. Starr comes home and, observing that Trey and the stranger look alike, concludes that he must be Trey's father. She asks him about his history with Sonny. Joe denies ever having heard the name "Corinthos" before Trey started working on "Mob Princess." Trey and Joe go out in the hallway to talk. Trey tells Joe that Starr is dating Kristina's brother, but not to worry because no one knows his real name. Joe tells Trey to go to Sonny and tell him that the marriage was an act, but that he loves Kristina and wants to stay married. Starr calls Michael to tell him that Trey's father is out of jail and at the apartment. When Michael arrives, Trey and Joe are gone. Starr tells him that Trey's father said he didn't know Sonny. Michael asks her if she believed him. She tells him that she wasn't completely convinced and that Trey was acting a little sketchy too. Joe goes to the Quartermaine estate. Tracy tells him that she will give his medallion to him when he tells him what the "S" stands for. Trey goes to Sonny's house. Kate answers the door and tells him that he'd better hope Sonny doesn't come home after the stunt he just pulled. Trey says he came to tell Sonny that it wasn't a stunt; he genuinely cares about Kristina. She asks him if he has anything else to tell Sonny, like the history that his father has with him. He pretends not to know what she is talking about. She notices the medallion he is wearing. She asks him where he got it. He tells her that he got it from his father and that he has one just like it. She has a flashback to her rape. She breaks the chain snatching the medallion off Trey's neck. She sees JMS engraved on the back and says aloud, "Joseph Mitchell Scully." Alexis gives Sam her divorce papers to sign. Sam tells her mother that she has come to realize that Jason wasn't responsible for the baby's death and that she thinks she may be able to forgive him. Alexis tells her to go tell Jason. Jason sends Spinelli on a quest to find the tissue cells from Sam's baby to see if they are a blood type match to Sam. Spinelli tries to charm a lab tech into helping him, but she says she can't release the information to him. Spinelli manages to persuade her to help him. She does the test and confirms that the tissue from the baby is AB-Negative and can't possibly have been Sam Morgan's child. Elizabeth drives Jason home from the hospital. When he opens the door, he finds that she has decorated the penthouse for his birthday. She tells him that the only reason she went out with Ewen was that she couldn't have Jason. She tells him that she doesn't want to miss another opportunity now that he and Sam are getting divorced. Sam goes to the penthouse and sees Jason and Elizabeth kissing.
Jason: Thank for, uh -- thanks for helping me out with this. Spinelli: Yeah. We will soon unlock the mystery that is fair Samantha's baby boy. Jason: Now, do you think you can get your hands on that tissue sample? Spinelli: Once tested, we will know for certain the baby's blood type, and if it's not type-o, like his biological parents... Jason: Then it's not Sam's baby. Spinelli: Elizabeth. Hey. It -- it is a pleasure to see you looking so well after your recent brush with death. Elizabeth: Which one? Spinelli: I'm -- I'm sorry for what Dr. Keenan put you through. Elizabeth: If not for you, he may have gotten away with it. Jason: That's true. Spinelli: All the gratitude should be directed to Jason. Jason: No, no. You found their location. Elizabeth: Exactly, so thank you both. Spinelli: Well, you are most welcome. Now, if you'll excuse the abrupt departure, I have things of great importance to take care of. Oh, and, um, happy birthday. Elizabeth: Yeah. Happy birthday. Jason: Yeah. I've never been really into, you know, birthdays, and now that I share one with Franco, I just want to erase it altogether. Sonny: So, okay, you -- you got married for a reality show? Kristina: Trey's dad put up all the money, and so we didn't want him to lose everything. So we got married to give the show a grand finale. Sonny: So you did all this for Trey's dad? Kristina: Yes. We were just trying to save him. Sonny: Who is this guy? I want to see him. Kristina: You -- you can't. Sonny: Don't tell me what I can or can't do. I want to see Trey's father. What's his name? [Hurried footsteps approach] Alexis: I've got really great news. They found Jax. He survived the explosion. Sam: He did? Sonny: I know that. Alexis: What do you mean, you know that? Sonny: 'Cause I saw Jax at the hospital. Alexis: Why didn't you tell me? Sonny: I got sidetracked. Alexis: Oh. Oh! Honey. Hi. It's so good to see you, sweetheart. Kristina: I was totally freaking out, thinking about Sam and Molly getting sick. Alexis: It's all good now. It's all good. Now we can just focus on you and why you didn't call me and tell me where you were going. Sonny: Because you'd lock her up and throw away the key. Kristina: Dad, please. Alexis: Should I just sit down? Sam: That might not be a bad idea. Alexis: Yeah. Sonny: Kristina, are you gonna say something to your mom, or you want me to? Alexis: Want me to what? What? Sonny: Okay. Here it is. You ready? Alexis: Ready. Sonny: Kristina, um, went to Vegas to marry that sleaze -- Trey. Kate: Your father must have been so relieved to see you. I know he was glad that you weren't here for the jerry madness. I was, too. Michael: Yeah, I'm just thankful everybody's okay. Kate: Well, how was Vegas, well, before you thought your whole family was dying, of course? Michael: Oh, well, it wasn't too much fun. I was only in Vegas with Starr to stop Kristina. Kate: Stop Kristina from what? Michael: Getting married. Trey: Kristina thinks we're getting an annulment. Joe Jr.: Let her. It doesn't mean it's gonna happen -- not when me and my son are about to get everything we want. Starr: Trey? Is this your dad? Trey: No. I-I mean -- Starr: Well, you guys look exactly alike. You are, aren't you? You are Trey's famous -- or should I say infamous -- father. Monica: What's that? Tracy: Daddy's hat. Monica: [Sighs] No. The thing in your hand. Tracy: Oh. This. Um, it is a medal. Um, Joseph wears it all the time. It came off when we were -- it broke. Monica: Well, now that you've brought him up -- Tracy: I didn't. Monica: What's happening with you and the hanger-on? Joe Jr.: Guilty as charged. And you must be Starr, right? Trey's dad. You didn't tell me your roommate was so cute. Trey: Dad. Starr: Uh, look, I don't -- I don't mean to be rude, but I thought that you were, um, in -- Joe Jr.: In jail? Yeah, well, the charges were dropped. They finally figured out I was innocent. Trey: It's great news, huh? Trey: I'm -- I'm sorry for being so weird. It's just that -- that my dad literally showed up, like, seconds before you got here, so I'm still trying to wrap my head around all this. Starr: Are you proud of your son? Joe Jr.: Uh, always. Starr: No, I mean for talking his girlfriend into marrying him so that you could get your money back. Joe Jr.: Oh, cute and fiery. I like it. And, yes, my son's the best. Because of him, I won't lose my shirt. Starr: What about what everyone else loses? I'm sorry. Forget it. You know what? Actually, Mr. Mitchell, can I ask you a question? Tracy: Excuse me? "Hanger-on"? Monica: He must be after your money. Why else would he have stuck so closely to you at the hospital? Tracy: The man is not allowed to show appropriate concern? Monica: He could have picked a better time and place to hit on you. Tracy: Mm. I'm so sorry, Monica, if we, uh, violated your sense of propriety. We were in a crisis situation. Monica: [Scoffs] I was there, Tracy. Tracy: And now that we have survived...I've asked Joseph to move in. Joe Jr.: If it's about Trey's habits around the apartment, I-I did my best. Starr: No, that's not what I was going to ask. Joe Jr.: Oh. Starr: This is about your history with Sonny Corinthos. Kate: Trey, as in Kristina's smarmy producer -- Trey? Michael: Yeah, that's the one. Kate: They got married? Michael: Yeah. I tried to stop them, but I showed up too late. Well, the good news is it won't last long. Kate: What do you mean? Michael: Well, supposedly they only got married for the reality show, and they're gonna get it annulled. Kate: What?! I thought Trey stopped production on "mob princess." Michael: Yeah, I mean, I-I guess the producers threatened to sue if he didn't come up with 10 episodes, including the wedding. Kate: Sonny won't care about that. When he hears about this, he's gonna flip out. Michael: Oh, he definitely heard, and he, uh, definitely flipped out. Kate: Oh, God. Michael: Yeah, that's why I'm here. I wanted to tell him the whole story. Kate: There's more? Michael: Yeah. Supposedly Trey's dad dumped all of his cash into "mob princess," and when Trey tried to pull out, he couldn't get it back. Kate: Do you believe him? Michael: Maybe that part's true, but I-I think marrying Kristina's about more than just money. Kate: What do you mean? Michael: Trey told Starr that his dad has a history with mine. Kate: Wait. Trey's father knows Sonny? Michael: Yeah, and he isn't a fan. Alexis: You married Trey because of that ludicrous show -- a reality show that he supposedly gave up for you? Kristina: I married Trey to help his father out. If we deliver 10 episodes, plus the wedding, the producers would sue for breach and Trey's dad would get all his money back. A little help here? Sam: I plead the fifth. Alexis: At least one of my daughters makes sense. Kristina: What is the big deal? Alexis: This, my darling! This is the big deal! You are legally married! Kristina: Yeah, for like the next five minutes. Obviously, I'm gonna get it annulled. Sonny: Damn right you are. Kristina: Where are you going? Sonny: I'm gonna have a little chat with Trey -- Kristina: Dad. Sonny: With his father, because he needs to learn how to fight his own battles. Kristina: Dad, stop! Sonny: No, I don't want to hear it. [Door slams] Alexis: Let's just put this in perspective -- right? -- After everything that we've just been through. Sam: It's gonna be okay. One of your kids made a bad decision. It's not life or death. Alexis: That's right. It is not life or death. And -- and as soon as the marriage is ended, her so-called husband will be out of her life for good. Elizabeth: Something of great importance? Spinelli's looking into the blood discrepancy, isn't he? Jason: If anybody can find out if that baby was really Sam's, it's Spinelli. [Knock on door] Spinelli: Um, pardon the interruption. Excuse me! Uh, excuse me. Ellie: Don't say it. [Sighs] You gave me a final warning before we all got sick, and now you're gonna fire me. Spinelli: Uh, no. Actually, I have no intention -- Ellie: Oh, you're not Dr. Traina. Spinelli: No, no, no, I'm not...which perhaps means y-you'd be more likely to help me? Elizabeth: I know you don't want to talk about birthday, but I have a little present for you. Jason: What? Elizabeth: You can go home. [Chuckles] Jason: The surgeon said 24 hours. Elizabeth: I know, but I pulled some strings and I got Steven to sign off on the papers. I figured it would save you the hassle of sneaking out. Jason: Thank you. I'll call max for a ride. Elizabeth: No, no. You don't have to. I'm finishing up work. I can drive you home. Jason: No, you don't -- you don't have to do that. Elizabeth: Please, that's the least I can do. Jason: You're sure? Elizabeth: Yeah. Now that things are calming down here, there's something I've been wanting to tell you, and the hospital's not the place. Sam: Hey, mom, are you sure you're okay? Alexis: I'm great. Sam: Really? Kristina's annulment can wait. You don't have to do this right now. Alexis: No, it really can't. [Sighs] Sam: What? Alexis: I forgot about this. With the sky falling, I forgot that I had your divorce papers drawn up. Sam: Oh. Alexis: Actually, all they need is your signature...and the marriage is over. Monica: Do I still have to remind you that this is my house? Tracy: Please. I haven't had a reminder in at least the last 10 minutes. Monica: And you expect me to allow a stranger to move in? Tracy: He is not a stranger to me, Monica, and he makes me feel fabulous. Monica: Oh, well, in that case... Tracy: I don't expect you to, uh, understand. You haven't had a man since the industrial revolution. Monica: I'm gonna do a background check. Tracy: Are you out of your mind?! Monica: No, but he could be. You don't know. He could be some drug-peddling psychopath. What's his last name? Tracy: Um [Clears throat] It begins with "S." Joe Jr.: Sonny Corinthos -- that's Kristina's father, isn't it? Starr: Trey told me that you had issues with Sonny that go back a long time. Trey: And then I told you that I fabricated all that for the show, remember? Starr: Yes, and I know that that's what you said, but Michael doesn't seem to believe you, and I'm not sure I do, either, so I'm asking your dad. Do you have issues with Sonny? Do you have a history with him? Joe Jr.: I'll tell you what. You know, as dramatic and made for TV as that sounds, it's just a story -- a good one, my man, but still... Starr: So you don't know Sonny at all? Joe Jr.: I never even heard the name "Corinthos" till Trey started working on "mob princess." Look, Starr, my son went so far as to get hitched to make sure the show had fireworks. Is it really a stretch to think he'd fabricate bad blood? A wife's mobster father and his own dad. [Imitates dramatic music] [Chuckles] Hell, I'd tune in. Wouldn't you? Kristina: I had to ask. Excuse me. Joe Jr.: Nice meeting you. Get over here. What the hell is wrong with you? You spilled your guts to your roommate. Why? Trey: Why do you think, dad? Because of you. Kate: What kind of problem does Trey's father have with Sonny? Michael: I don't know. But when I confronted Trey about it, he said he made the whole thing up to raise the stakes for "mob princess." Kristina believes him. Kate: Do you believe him? Michael: Trey had no reason to lie to Starr. He's covering something about his father. Kate: And you think this marriage to Kristina is a part of it? Michael: Maybe a way for Trey and his dad to get back at mine. Kate: Does Sonny know anything about this? Michael: No, not yet. Kate: Oh, God. Michael: Look, you and my dad grew up in Brooklyn together. Do you remember anybody specific that had a serious grudge against my dad? Kate: Sonny had a quick temper. He had many enemies in Brooklyn. Michael: You know what I mean, like somebody -- something that someone would still be hanging onto. Kate: There's one person, but he doesn't have a son. What's Trey's last name again? Michael: Mitchell. Kristina: I'm telling you, there's no way you can talk to Trey's father, because I don't know where he is. Sonny: Oh, this just gets better and better, doesn't it? You know what I'm gonna do, then? I'll just go talk to Trey, 'cause I'm sure he'll tell me what I need to hear. Alexis: Sam... Sam: Yeah? Alexis: You know I only did this because you asked me to. Sam: [Sighs] Yeah, I know. Alexis: Are you having second thoughts? Jason: All right. Here we go. Who did this? Elizabeth: I did. Please, don't get mad at max. I practically had to force him into giving me the key. And I know you're not big on birthdays, but I thought after what we had just been through, it would be kind of nice to celebrate life, you know? This was, of course, before you reminded me about the whole Franco thing. Jason, I'm really sorry. I'm just gonna put it all away. Spinelli: So, as you can see, both parents are -- are blood type o-positive. Ellie: So the baby's type-o, as well. Spinelli: No, at least not according to this. Ellie: You think someone made a mistake? Spinelli: I don't know. Is that common? Ellie: Well, it wouldn't happen on watch. Spinelli: Well, perhaps it wasn't a mistake at all. Ellie: Which would imply that the baby belongs to someone else. Spinelli: It's -- it's possible. Ellie: And you came to me why? Spinelli: Um, the mother of the baby had the -- had the foresight and the fortitude to allow her son's body to be used for tissue donation. Ellie: And the tissue is here in this lab. You want me to test for the baby's blood type. Spinelli: Precisely. Jason: No, Elizabeth, just -- just leave it. Elizabeth: Jason, it's okay, really. You don't have to pretend. Jason: No, I'm not -- I'm not pretending. Elizabeth: But you hate your birthday. Jason: That's true. But, I mean, you did this for me, and I appreciate it. And I appreciate you. Alexis: You know I don't want to make this harder on you. Sam: Yeah, I don't think that's possible at the moment. Alexis: I just need you to tell me what you want me to do. Do you want me to file this? Do you still want a divorce, or have you changed your mind? Joe Jr.: Don't even think about putting this thing on me. You're the one who couldn't keep his mouth shut. Trey: I was freaking out, dad. What do you expect? You threw all this stuff on me, like, all at once. Jason: When did you become so fragile, huh? Trey: Fragile? Really? Are you serious? I'm being forced to lie here, dad, not just to Kristina, but to my roommate. To everyone. And I'm making a total fool out of Kristina. She's gonna be destroyed, all because you have some stupid grudge with her father. Joe Jr.: Hey, don't belittle what that bastard did to me -- to us. Sonny Corinthos stole our future. Without this marriage, we got nothing, Joey. Trey: [Sighs] I'm sorry, okay? I-I'm sorry. I-I got confused, and I needed someone to talk to. Starr's a friend. Starr: Trey? Joe Jr.: You know, your roommate has an interesting way of expressing her friendship. She thinks you're lying. Trey: Yeah, but Kristina doesn't, and that's all that counts. Joe Jr.: What about this Michael character, huh, the one that Starr said didn't buy your story? I'm assuming that this is Michael Corinthos, as in Sonny's kid? Trey: Yeah. He's -- he's Starr's boyfriend. Joe Jr.: Hey, perfect, right? He's probably running off to Corinthos right now, telling him all about me. Trey: Relax. Dad, relax. No one even knows your real name. Monica: You want this man to move in, and you don't even know his name. Tracy: I don't know his last name. Monica: I mean, this is outrageous even for you, Tracy. Tracy: Monica, what can I say? It was spontaneous combustion, kind of like you and all the men you cheated on Alan with. Monica: Don't even go there. You are about to move in with a man you literally know nothing about. Tracy: Monica, we clicked. I saw the way he handled himself in life-and-death situations, and it made enough sense for me to open my heart and my home to him. Monica: I'm upping security. Tracy: Oh, Monica! Monica: Can you blame me, Tracy, for being wary? The last stray you brought in here -- Anthony Zacchara, a deranged mobster intent on revenge. Tracy: There is absolutely no comparison between this man and Anthony Zacchara. First of all, let us remember, I was forced into that marriage. Second of all, Joseph is not deranged, he is not vengeful, and he's definitely not a mobster. Joe Jr.: Yeah, Sonny's not dumb. He knows how much I hate him. Trey: Yeah, but he still has no idea that there's a connection between you and me. Joe Jr.: You told Starr that Sonny and I have a history. If he hears that much, he'll figure out the rest. Kate: Mitchell. I don't know any Mitchells from Brooklyn. I guess Trey possibly made it up. [Cell phone ringing] Michael: It's Starr. Kate: It's okay. Take it. Michael: Hey. What's going on? Starr: Michael, you'll never guess who's here. Sonny: [Groans] Kristina: Would you just chill out for a minute? I barely even said the word "married" before you were already out the door, ready to do who knows what to Trey and his father. Sonny: If someone messes with my kids, I fight back. That's my instinct. I got to do what I have to do. Kristina: And I love you for it... some of the time. But nobody's messing with me. Sonny: I don't believe that. Kristina: Do you know why I agreed to do the wedding? Sonny: No. Kristina: I can see just how much Trey loves his father and how badly he wants to protect him. You and I get into it a lot. But you're still my father. And who's to say I wouldn't do something this crazy for you? Sam: Jason and I were in the hospital together, and I just -- I started to play "what if," you know? What if I had never gone to see Heather Webber? What if I had never found out that Franco was my baby's father? Alexis: It's really tempting to think about what might have been. Sam: Yeah. Mom, it broke my heart. Imagining how happy Jason and I could be right now. We would be home together with our son. And I felt so close to Jason -- closer than I've -- than I've felt in a really long time. So I just -- I just started talking. Alexis: What did you talk about? Sam: That night. I think I've been so focused on blaming Jason. [Sniffles] I've never really stopped to think about what I did wrong. Mom, I wrapped my child up in a scarf, and I took him out in the middle of a storm. I was so stupid. Alexis: Honey, you were trying to go for help. Sam: What are you talking about? I followed a light into the middle of the woods, and I left my child alone outside, and my baby died there -- not because of what Jason did. Because of what I did. Ellie: Only the mother, Mrs. Morgan, can access information regarding the child. Are you the baby's father? Spinelli: Um, no. Ellie: Then I'm sorry. I can't help you. Spinelli: Um... Ellie: Oh, you're a detective. Uh, do you have a warrant? Spinelli: I guess you missed the "private." Ellie: So you're a P.I. Spinelli: Yes. Yes. Yes, I am. Ellie: Look, Damien -- Spinelli: Actually, you can just call me Spinelli. And you are? Ellie: Uh, Ellie. Spinelli: Oh. It's a pleasure to meet you. If you don't mind me asking, is -- is your given name Eleanor, Elena, or some variation of... Ellie: I was named after my great-aunt Ellen. Spinelli: Oh. Ellie: And I still can't help you. Spinelli: Look, Mrs. Morgan is -- is my business partner and -- and a very, very dear friend. Ellie: Great. Then just ask her to come down here and give authorization. Spinelli: I can't. Jason: Did I -- did I thank you for helping me through that stuff about Sam's baby? Elizabeth: Well, I don't think I really helped you that much. I mean, you don't know any more now than you did before. Jason: It was just nice to have someone to talk to. Elizabeth: Jason... Jason: Yeah? Elizabeth: Uh, there's been something I wanted to tell you, and the last time I tried, we were interrupted. Jason: By, uh, Sam and McBain. I think you were talking about Dr. Keenan. Elizabeth: Y-yeah. Yeah. We were. Well, what I -- what I want to say to you has nothing to do with him -- not really. Jason: Okay. What -- what does it have to do with? Elizabeth: You. Sam: Jason was there, and for the first time since my son died, I needed him, and he was there for me, mom, and I let him hold me. [Sniffles] I don't know. And then Patrick came in. He said that he -- he wanted to take me away for some tests, and Jason went out of his way to ask him how and why my baby died. Alexis: You know why. It was respiratory failure. And if he had gotten to a hospital and been put on a ventilator -- Sam: No, mom, it would not have mattered. Alexis: I don't understand. Sam: Patrick said that my -- my baby's lungs weren't fully developed and even if I would have gotten to a hospital in time, he -- he would have died. It wouldn't have mattered. Alexis: Well, then, that proves that it wasn't your fault. Sam: It wasn't Jason's fault, either. Sonny: I know what you're trying to do, Kristina. You're trying to draw a parallel here, but it's not the same. You know why? Because I'd never ask you do something as extreme as marrying somebody you barely know. Kristina: True. But have you ever been to jail for a crime you didn't commit? Sonny: Dirtbag's been in jail? Kristina: He was innocent, but haven't you ever been unfairly accused? Sonny: Yeah, you know, a few times. Kristina: At least you have this big family who loves you, friends who support you. Sonny: Right. Kristina: All Mr. Mitchell has is his son. So I-I married Trey to help his dad out. Can you just try and understand? Joe Jr.: I'm sorry, you know? Maybe if your mother had been around, you know, to balance things out, I'd have learned to be less overbearing. Trey: You're great. You're the best. Joe Jr.: Yeah, who's forcing you into something that you're not comfortable with. Trey: I understand what we're doing, and I understand why. I just got a little stressed out there for a minute, but -- okay, maybe I shouldn't have said anything to Starr. It was -- it was stupid. Joe Jr.: You think? It's okay. Maybe there's a way to make this right. Trey: How? Joe Jr.: Stay married to your mob princess. Trey: Dad, you still haven't told me how staying married to Kristina is gonna get back what Sonny stole from us. Tracy: Monica, Joseph is a decent, hardworking man. Monica: What does he do? Tracy: He's an antiques dealer. Monica: That explains his interest in you. Tracy: Ha. Look, Monica, I'm sure if the roles were reversed, I would be the one making the jokes, but the man has done something to me. He makes me feel alive. Okay, maybe it's just physical. If it is, so be it. But I think it's worth finding out about. Joe Jr.: Leave the logistics to me, all right? Trey: Dad, what if Sonny finds out who you are? Joe Jr.: We'll head him off at the pass. You say that you like Kristina, right? Trey: I do. Joe Jr.: Go to her father. Tell him. Say the marriage started out as an act but then now you've fallen in love. Trey: Dad, going to Sonny is -- is not gonna make him like me. Joe Jr.: No. You are... by showing him who you are and what you're made of. You are Joseph Mitchell Scully iii. Hmm? Trey: W-where's yours, dad? Joe Jr.: What? I don't know. I'll find it. In the meantime, go make things right. Win Corinthos over. Trey: Okay. Okay, I'll try. Joe Jr.: And you'll succeed. Son, be patient, huh? It'll all be worth it. Trey: Yeah. Michael: Wait. Hold on. I thought Trey's dad was in jail. Starr: Apparently he got out. He's still in the hall. Michael: Okay. I'll be right there. Spinelli: This woman -- my friend -- she just lost her son, and I'm -- I'm loathe to open any old wounds unnecessarily. Ellie: In this case, you don't really have an option. Spinelli: Come on. Don't you want this child to rest in peace? Ellie: Yes. Of course I do. But my supervisor is a tyrant. Didn't you see me jump out of my skin before? Spinelli: You did seem a bit twitchy. Ellie: Yeah, well, she won't let us listen to anything while we're working, and I recorded myself reading medical textbooks. Spinelli: Killing two birds with one stone, as it were. So there are some rules that you deem breakable -- rules that don't make sense, rules that if followed cause more harm than good. So, please, won't you break one of those rules now? Alexis: Jason had his henchmen attack John McBain, preventing him from getting you and the baby to the hospital. Sam: Yeah, mom, I know. I'm -- I'm not excusing what Jason did to John or the way he shut down on me when I was pregnant. He was wrong about a lot of things, and I was wrong, too. I am not perfect. Neither is he. But, mom, I know he is not the reason why my baby died. Alexis: So, does that mean you can forgive him? Elizabeth: I swore to myself that if I survived all of this, I wouldn't waste any more time and that I would stop being scared and just tell you how I feel. Jason: Okay. Elizabeth: For such a long time, everyone was encouraging me to go out with Ewen. I mean, they all told me that we made a good match, because he was smart and nice. Jason: And you didn't think so? Elizabeth: No, I thought he was all of those things, but that's not why I gave him a chance. The reason I decided to go out with Ewen... is because I couldn't have you. Ellie: Are you trying to manipulate me? Spinelli: No. No. No, no. I'm just trying to show you the shades of gray between all right and all wrong. Ellie: Traina doesn't do gray. Spinelli: Okay, with all due respect, we're not talking about your supervisor. Ellie: Aren't we? 'Cause that's who I answer to if I get caught. Not that she has room to talk. She is all about following the rules, but she keeps us here way longer than she's supposed to. Spinelli: Oh. Another hypocritical authoritarian asserting power over an underling. Ellie: If I even think of giving you access to these records, that's it. I kiss my job goodbye. Spinelli: Okay. That's if you get caught. The far more likely scenario that you don't -- in the process, you'll be -- you'll be vanquishing a bureaucrat that -- that thrives on torture and, in the process, scoring one for the little guy. I mean, isn't the most noble of causes standing up to oppression, doing something good for one in need? Ellie: Wow. You make me sound like a superhero. Spinelli: Well, I think we all have a superhero lurking inside us. You know, that part of us that instinctively wants good -- good to triumph. So follow that instinct. Please, Ellie, help me. Don't let the bad guys win. Elizabeth: Jason, we've been growing closer, right? And we kissed on the bridge. Jason: Yeah, I know. Elizabeth: And I-I completely understand that that was just a rebound thing. I get it. But, still, I needed to find a way to forget about you. And what better way than with Ewen? And you told me he had all kinds of secrets, and I wouldn't listen to you. Jason: Elizabeth, I'm sorry... Elizabeth: Sorry? Why are you apologizing? You saved my life -- again. Jason: No. I-I was just -- Elizabeth: I was so terrified when Ewen had that gun against me, but I completely trusted you, because I always have. Even since that moment you rescued me at Jake's, there's been this -- this pull between us, right? And it's something that I can't -- I can't explain it, and I don't want to ignore it. And when I look at you, I not only see Jake's father or Emily's brother, I see my friend. There have been so many missed chances, and I don't want to miss another one. And since you and Sam are getting divorced... maybe we don't have to. Sam: I think that is what I mean. I-I think I -- I think I can forgive Jason. Alexis: Okay. So, there's no deadline on those divorce papers. I'll put it aside until you figure it out. Sam: Okay. Alexis: Okay. Sam: [Sighs] Alexis: Should I ask you about John McBain? Sam: No. Alexis: Okay, can I -- can I give you a piece of advice? Would that be all right? Go talk to your husband while he's still your husband and tell him everything that you just told me. What do you have to lose? Sam: Thank you for reminding me of that. Alexis: Well, I didn't really mean to bring that up right now. Sam: No, I mean it, mom. Thank you. You're right. I need to go talk to Jason. I need to go tell him how I feel. [Sniffles] Alexis: Anytime. [Smooches] Sonny: You can be pretty persuasive when you're not yelling at me. Kristina: You can be pretty reasonable when you decide to listen. So, are you gonna lay off Trey? Where are you going? Sam: Um [Chuckles, sniffles] There's something I need to do. Bye. Sonny: All right. Um, if I agree to leave Trey alone, there's something I need you to do. Michael: Where's Trey and his dad? Starr: I'm sorry. He must have left while I was getting changed. Michael: [Sighs] I wanted to ask him a few questions. Starr: Okay, well, if one of the questions were whether he knew your dad, the answer is no. Apparently he never even heard of the name Sonny Corinthos until Trey started doing the show. Michael: Okay. Well, the only question I have now is, did you actually buy that? Tracy: You don't think he's a danger, do you? Monica: I don't know, Tracy. I don't know him. But what I did see at the hospital -- I mean, he seems -- he seems to care for you on some level. Tracy: Thank you. Monica: Well, it doesn't mean I'm not gonna keep an eye on him, for sure. And may I suggest that if you're gonna do more than just have sex with him, you find out his last name. Tracy: Will do. Monica: I'll take Edward his hat. And, uh, don't forget -- cook's funeral is this afternoon. [Knock on door] Kate: Coming. What do you want? Trey: Is Sonny home? Kate: No, he's not, and you better hope it stays that way. Some stunt you pulled, marrying Kristina. Trey: Okay, I know it looks like a stunt, but it's not. Kate: It's real? Trey: Yes, it's real. That's why I'm here. I want to talk to Sonny and let him know that I legitimately care for Kristina. Kate: Is there anything else you'd like to tell him, Trey? How your father has some grudge against him? Trey: That's -- that's not -- that's not true. Kate: Oh. Well, that's what Michael says. He asked me if the name "Mitchell" rang any bells from Brooklyn. Trey: Huh. Okay. And -- and did it? That's what I thought, because I made all that up, and Michael knows that, so... Kate: Where did you get that? Trey: What? What, this? My dad. Starr: Did Mr. Mitchell completely sell me? No. And Trey was acting super- sketchy. But maybe it's because he hasn't seen his father in a long time. I don't know. Hey, where were you? Were you with your little sister? Michael: After I saw joss, I went over to my dad's house. Starr: Did you tell your dad about Trey's dad? Michael: He wasn't there. I saw Kate, though. I talked to her, and I asked her if she remembered any Mitchell when she was growing up in Bensonhurst, but... no. Starr: Are we ever going to figure this out? Michael: I know my dad can take care of himself. I'm just -- I wish Kristina wasn't involved in this. Alexis: What are you still doing here? I thought you went to deal with Trey or his dad or whatever. Sonny: Well, your daughter talked me out of it. Alexis: Yeah, she's my daughter when she runs off and gets married. Sonny: Not for long. Did you draw up the papers? Alexis: I got distracted, but it was a good thing, 'cause I think that Sam and Jason may have a chance of making it. Kristina: She didn't sign the divorce papers? That's amazing. Sonny: Do not get any ideas, please, 'cause if you don't end this marriage... Trey's a dead man. Joe Jr.: Hello, gorgeous. Alice let me in. Tracy: Hi! Welcome home. Joe Jr.: I like the sound of that. Let me ask you something. You didn't happen to find my, uh, med-- oh! Tracy: You mean this? Joe Jr.: Yeah. Tracy: It think it came off when we were playing doctor. Joe Jr.: Is that what we're calling it now? Tracy: Mm-hmm. Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh. You don't get it back until you tell me what the "s" stands for. Kate: Your father gave that to you? Trey: Yeah, he's got one just like it. Why? Kate: [Gasps] Oh! Bastard! Trey: What -- what -- what are you doing? Kate: J.M.S. [Inhales sharply] J.M.S. Joseph Mitchell Scully. Ellie: I did it. Spinelli: Dare I ask what you found? Ellie: You were right. The baby's blood type is a-b-negative. Spinelli: And it's not possible that parents with o-positive blood could have a child with a-b-negative blood. Ellie: Not a chance. This tissue doesn't belong to Sam Morgan's baby. Spinelli: So that means... Sam's son may still be alive. Elizabeth: Unless something has changed. Jason: Nothing's changed. Elizabeth: So, you and Sam are still getting a divorce? Jason: Yeah.
