12/28- Johnny
bristles when Trevor preps him for his meeting with Moreau, a powerful drug
trafficker. Jason knows the implications of Johnny's meeting and realizes it
doesn't bode well for Sonny. Johnny makes it clear he means business as he
asserts his newfound power. Jax is disappointed when Jerry doesn't
take him up on his offer to go into business together. Alexis tells Jax that
Jerry is different from the man he was before. We see that Jerry's keeping a
big secret from Alexis and Jax: He's actually Moreau, the drug
trafficker. Sonny gets a taste of Kate's high fashion world, including
a co-worker of Kate's that hits on him! Nikolas reveals to his family
his medica condition, a brain tumor, which he indicates could be genetic.
He's happy to once again be visited by Emily, who didn't appear to him while
he was in Switzerland. 12/31- Sonny
is out of his element as he suffers through an art gallery opening in
Manhattan with Kate. Try as he might, Sonny can't escape his reputation and
is arrested after assaulting a man he overheard badmouthing Kate. Jax
and Carly are miserable when a flu bug prevents Jax from attending the New
Year's Eve party they're hosting at the Metro Court. At the party, Carly
suspects Jerry is up to his old tricks when she overhears part of his phone
conversation. Not wanting to spend the holiday without the man she loves,
Carly leaves the party early to be with Jax. Elizabeth's plans to
spend a romantic evening with Jason are dashed when he calls her to say he
needs to take care of business. Nikolas fears he's lost Emily for
good. Robin and Patrick remain at odds. Epiphany is hurt when she
fails to hear from her son Stan, but is cheered by a call from Toussaint.
Nikolas spends times with Emily. 1/2- A
potential disaster is surely in the making when Alexis and Diane are both
nominated for the Litigator of the Year award by the Women Attorney's
Association. Jerry goes to drastic lengths to cover his role as the
crime lord Moreau--he has Epiphany's son Stan, who was working for him,
killed. Epiphany is on the phone with Stan when her son gets into a fatal
accident. Sam confides in Lucky that Nikolas' brain tumor is genetic
and remains uncertain about getting herself tested for the potentially
deadly condition. Ric tries to charm Skye into selling Alcazar's property to
Johnny Zacchara (and thus hurting Sonny), but Skye holds her own and remains
non-committal. Jason is frustrated in his attempt to find out where
Sonny is being held after being arrested on assault charges. Spinelli and
Max find themselves on the receiving end of the Health Inspector's ire after
Spinelli is caught hacking into their system. 1/3- After
collapsing, Luke finds himself in purgatory court where he acts as judge,
prosecutor and defender. Luke is sure he's done for when the string of
witnesses, including his own family, don't pull any punches. Surprisingly
enough, Tracy is the one who comes to Luke's rescue but he still isn't off
the hook. Epiphany gets the news every parent fears: Her son Stan is dead.
Jerry is privately pleased that things are working out the way he intended
regardless of who gets hurt in the process. Although seemingly sincere in
his desire to pursue a relationship, Ric may still be planning on taking
advantage of Skye. Sonny is impressed when Kate goes to bat for him. 1/4- Carly
desperately wants to have Jax's baby but her plans for romance are
interrupted when she and Jax must deal with Michael, who got in a fight at
school while defending Sonny. Jax is able to help get Michael to see
fighting is wrong. Elizabeth clashes with Sam and makes it clear she
doesn't want Sam anywhere near her kids. Jason and Elizabeth are able to
have their romantic rendezvous at the safe house after all. Looking to cause
trouble, Sam tells Carly that Jake is Jason's son. Sonny and Kate are
miserable being away from one another. Lulu is being held against her
will--and the culprit is Jerry. Alexis and Diane make unlikely
seatmates when they're forced to endure each other as they wait for their
plane to take off (they are heading to the Female Litigator of the Year
awards, for which they are both nominated). As her patience wears thin,
Diane takes her frustration out of the flight crew but Alexis surprisingly
comes to her rescue. Unfortunately, the flight crew isn't happy with them
and kicks them off the plane. Skye comes to Ric's rescue when he has his
hands full babysitting Molly and Kristina. They grow closer and kiss, but
Ric ruins the moment when he suggests the two use Skye's piers to become
power players. Felicia and Mac find footprints in the police station that
seem to match those of the Text Message Killer. 1/7- Clashing
with Sam, Elizabeth warns her to stay away from her kids. Later, Jason and
Elizabeth are able to have their romantic rendezvous at the safe house after
all. Meanwhile, Sonny and Kate are miserable being away from one another.

into a fight at school. Then, Sam drops a bombshell on Carly. At the same
time, Lulu is held against her will. Unlikely seatmates Alexis and
Diane are forced to endure each other as they wait for their plane to take
off. As her patience wears thin, Diane takes her frustration out on the
flight crew. Surprisingly, Alexis comes to Diane's rescue. Soon, Diane and

he has his hands full babysitting Molly and Kristina. The two of them grow

refuses to believe Sam's claim that Jason is Jake's father. Meanwhile, Jason
and Elizabeth make the most of their time together at the safe house and are
reluctant to return to their separate lives but know they must. Carly
confronts Elizabeth and realizes that Sam was telling the truth after all.
After dealing with Carly, Elizabeth lets Lucky know that Sam told Carly the
truth about Jake. Carly confronts Jason about Jake being his son. Skye
sees the similarities between her and Ric and tells him she's scared by
them. Although tempted to see what could develop between them, Skye decides
to protect herself and walks away from Ric. After getting kicked off
the plane, a bickering Alexis and Diane set off for the award ceremony in
Chicago in a rental car. The car breaks down and soon the two find
themselves stranded in a biker bar in the middle of nowhere. Trevor

Johnny has an unsettling visit with his father, who we see is slowly

so many other people knew the truth. Despite Jason's protests, Carly rants

Jason claims Jake as his own. Logan shocks Johnny with the news that Lulu is
missing. Pretending to be
Moreau, Jerry lets Johnny know that he holds Lulu's fate in his hands. With
no other choice, Johnny has to team up with Logan to find Lulu. Meanwhile,
Lulu makes a desperate call to Spinelli. After breaking into the now empty biker bar, Diane and Alexis discover that
they have more in common than they realized. 1/11- Sonny
wants Carly to mind her own business where Jason and Jake are concerned.
Jason confronts Sam over telling Carly the truth about Jake. Sam defends her
actions, recalling how much Jason has hurt her in the past. Jason warns
Carly not to get involved in his situation with Jake. Jax tries to make time
with Carly, but she's too focused on Jason. Elizabeth can't help but be
touched when Lucky tells her he wants to make sure that Jake is always loved
and safe, regardless of any problems between them. Cameron plays with some
matches, starts a fire in the trash can, then runs out of the house.
Elizabeth chases after him, then gets locked out--just as the living room
catches on fire. Elizabeth freaks, because Jake is upstairs. Sonny can't
stay away from Kate. Tracy tells Luke she's going to monitor his every
moment to keep him alive. Skye says goodbye to the Quartermaines, Jax, and
Luke. Skye helps Luke escape from the hospital, and the two share a poignant
goodbye. Skye leaves Port Charles. A man and his pregnant wife are turned
away from GH because they lack proper insurance. The man returns with his
wife, demanding care--or he'll set off the bomb strapped to his chest. 1/14- Jason
pays Anthony Zacchara a visit to try and determine if he's getting his
sanity back. Zacchara, who clearly is not sane, claims he'll be mobile again
and will come after Jason. Anthony also states he did not kill Emily. Trevor
has no intention of letting Johnny call the shots. Spinelli finally shakes
off the effects of the cold medicine and hears the message Lulu left for
him. Having no other choice, Spinelli tells Logan and Johnny about Lulu's
message as the three unlikely allies join forces to find her. A determined
Lulu refuses to give up until she finds a way to free herself. Tracy covers
her worry with anger when Luke goes missing from the hospital. She drowns
her sorrows in alcohol, and Jax has to help her after she passes out. Jerry
makes mysterious plans. As the flames spread, a frantic Elizabeth races to
Jake after crashing through the window and saves her baby from the fire. In
the process of the rescue, Elizabeth cuts herself. An arriving Jason takes
off like a shot when he learns Elizabeth took Jake to the hospital. At GH,
Sam tries to calm Joe, who's threatening to detonate the bomb strapped to
his chest unless his wife Angie gets the treatment she needs. 1/15- As Joe
remains a literal ticking time bomb at the hospital, Mayor Floyd manages to
call Scott and orders him to take care of the situation discreetly. Scott
brings Lucky in on the case and tells him to take Joe out. Lucky enters
through a stairwell and prepares to shoot Joe. Meanwhile, Joe, suspicious of
Jason, grabs Monica and puts his finger on the detonator. Jason and Sam
realize that Joe's bomb will go off if he removes his finger from the
button—just as Lucky prepares to shoot him. Leo tends to Elizabeth after
she collapses from blood loss due to the cut on her leg. Leyla, and later
Robin, don't pull any punches when they let Patrick know they think he's
disrespectful of women. Even Emily's presence isn't enough to calm Nikolas
during another one of his episodes in which he ends up pushing Robin, who
falls and bangs her head. Patrick tells Robin he believes he can help
Nikolas' condition if he gets a blood sample during a rage episode. When
Robin questions how he'll do that, Patrick states his plan to provoke
Nikolas. Nadine seems very intuitive where Nikolas is concerned. Sonny,
who's breaking the restraining order by being in Manhattan, barely avoids
detection when an overzealous cop arrives at Kate's door. In the aftermath
of their road trip, Diane and Alexis have formed a newfound kinship of
sorts. Ric informs Alexis that he's leaving town for a while to think things
through and admits he doesn't know what he'll decide to do with the

Jax have it out over the increasing amount of time he's spending with Kate:
They're work together on the magazine launch and the fact that he's giving
Kate office space in the Metro Court. Sonny takes further steps to go legit
and leaves his world of violence behind. Kate suggests that she take Michael
to the warehouse that night to witness Sonny's legit business side
firsthand. Ian prepares to carry out the hit on Sonny. Trevor grows
suspicious of Claudia and Johnny. Claudia and Luke are worthy adversaries as
they trade threats. Jason and Elizabeth's reunion is cut short when she's
called to the hospital on an emergency. 4/4- Carly is
furious to learn Jax is leaving town to attend a business meeting in Kate's
place and that Kate is picking up Michael to take him to Sonny's warehouse.
Claudia has ulterior motives (read: she wants an alibi for the upcoming
Sonny hit) when she picks a fight with Carly at the Metro Court. Sonny tells
Alexis about the changes he's making in his life to keep his family safe and
that Michael shot Kate. When Jerry learns Michael is at the location for
Sonny's shooting, he tries to stop the hit. Claudia and Johnny's plan
against Sonny goes terribly awry when Ian aims at Sonny, who covers Kate and

Michael. Jax struggle to get to see Carly. Patrick informs Carly and Sonny
that Michael is in critical condition with a bullet lodged in his head and
will need surgery. Sonny takes his misplaced anger out on Jason. Carly
accuses Sonny of being the one who didn't protect their son. Patrick refuses
to allow Robin to assist him in the operating room as she's too emotionally
tied to Michael. Lulu and Johnny kiss, but are interrupted by Spinelli, who

the hit that inadvertently resulted in Michael's shooting) but Claudia talks
him out of it. In front of Alexis, Johnny tries to implicate Trevor for the
shooting but Trevor has an ironclad alibi. Claudia is wrecked with sobs as
she breaks down in Johnny's arms over what she did to Michael. Ian can't
help but not to be affected by the shooting. Carly and Jason take their
anger and frustration out on Sonny and Kate, and vice versa. Michael
survives the surgery thanks to Patrick's expertise but still remains
unconscious. Jax finally connects with Carly but remains stranded out of
town. Elizabeth is very shaken by Michael's shooting and realizes she can't
put her own children in jeopardy--thus a future with mob enforcer Jason
seems unlikely. Nadine innocently overhears Nikolas with Patrick and learns
of the illegal drug Nikolas has been taking. Nadine accuses Nikolas of being
selfish by letting himself die and leaving Spencer without a father. 4/9- Patrick
and Robin give Carly and Jason a medical update on Michael: He's likely
never to regain consciousness. Claudia denies to Luke that she had any
involvement in Michael's shooting. Ric tells Alexis he fully supports

Alexis a reality check when he tells her that Sonny's enemies could find her
wherever she goes if they wanted to. Sam gives Jason her heartfelt sympathy
about Michael. Lucky tells Elizabeth he now understands why she lied about
Jake's paternity - if Michael can be hurt by violence, so can Jake. Nikolas

him. Nikolas and Nadine's friendship grows over their mutual love of horses

wonders what kind of role he'll have in his child's life. Claudia tells

Nadine's pleasant afternoon with Spencer comes to an abrupt end when Nikolas
sees Emily. Emily believes Nikolas knows he's doing the wrong thing by not
having the surgery to rid himself of the tumor that causes visions of her.

be hurt. 4/11- Carly
continues to rant against Sonny, saying he doesn't deserve to be a father.

choices she made. Carly finds Claudia in Michael's hospital room and orders
her out. Kate tries to ease Sonny's guilt but he pushes her away. Monica
hopes that Jason will be able to forgive himself one day. Jason talks to
Elizabeth about their future, concerned that Micahel's accident is evidence
of why they can never be together - she and Jake could be targets. Alexis
gets quite an eyeful when she walks in on Max and Diane in bed together.

him Carly's wrong to blame him for Michael's tragedy. Sonny decides he needs
to be by Michael's side but Carly doesn't want him anywhere near their son.
Jax finally returns to Port Charles and is reunited with Carly. Jax feels
like an outsider as he witnesses the comfort Carly gets from Jason. Jax
later turns to Elizabeth for answers about Michael and what needs to be done
for him. Claudia and Johnny form a pact that no one will ever find out they
are indirectly responsible for Michael's injuries. Diane accuses Alexis of
being a hypocrite when Alexis chides her for sleeping with Max. After
telling Sonny a father should be with his child, Robin realizes she needs to
practice what she preaches–and makes an effort to extend herself to
Patrick with regards to her pregnancy. Jason and Elizabeth reach an
incredibly difficult decision: They can't be together. Jason cites Michael's
injuries as a perfect example of why he can't be with Liz and Jake, because
Jason's enemies might come after them. Johnny pushes Lulu away. Logan
surprises Lulu with a romantic dinner. 4/15- Carly
continues to blame Sonny for what happened to Michael and also blames
herself for allowing him to be a father to the boy in the first place. Carly

that Michael needs his father. Sonny pours out his heart as he sits by
Michael's side and later finds comfort with Kate. After speaking with

condition may not improve. Jax urges Carly to go home and explain to Morgan
what's happened to his big brother. Claudia seeks guarantees from Jason that
her family won't be targeted. Jason tells Spinelli he'll never allow himself
to have a family - after what happened to Michael, he knows how vulnerable
his loved ones are. Jerry warns Claudia that Ian will turn on both of them
if he's ever tied to the shooting. Jason and Spinelli might have uncovered a
clue that could lead them to Ian as Michael's shooter. As the re-opening of
the Haunted Star gets underway, Luke worries about Lulu's involvement with
Johnny while Tracy worries about Luke's health. Lulu encounters Johnny just

Emily). Nadine seeks Nikolas meeting with Ian. Lulu and Maxie fight like
cats and dogs as they work together at Kate's new magazine, Crimson. 4/21- Despite
opening his eyes, Michael doesn't respond to Carly. Carly remains in denial
as Patrick explains there hasn't been any change in Michael's condition -
opening his eyes was a reflexive action. Robin and Patrick are faced with
the difficult task of telling Carly Michael will not likely recover, and she
needs to think about long term care. Jax appeals to Jason to try and get
through to Carly and make her face the reality of Michael's condition.

but theorize he did it to get back at his father, Trevor. Anthony threatens
to kill Claudia if Johnny doesn't do what he wants in regards to the

press if she doesn't stay away from Sonny. Sonny (trying to get close to get

responsible for shooting Michael. Ian arrives at Kate's and lets her know he
shot Michael. He tells Kate unless she pays him $1 million to leave town,
