Carly and Sonny were stunned when Willow announced that she would be making decisions as she had Michael’s medical proxy. Drew said if they gave Willow back her kids, they could see Michael again.
Nina pleaded with Sonny to let the kids remain with the one parent they still had, and Carly was upset when he agreed to return the children.
Sasha clashed with Willow over her actions, and separately, Nina blasted Drew for being selfish and controlling Willow. Dante wanted Sonny to let the police handle the attempt on his life so it didn’t turn into a mob war, and Nina arrived to inform Sonny that Tracy was refusing to return the children.
After learning about the clinic where Ava’s burns had been healed, Carly asked Jack about the place, and he said it closed but the doctor had another and he’d get Michael in.
Sonny asked Tracy to hand over the kids, but she refused. Jason arrived and Tracy forced him to choose between Monica and Sonny, and he chose his mother. Sonny stormed out and had more chest pain so he took some pills. Nina urged Willow to stop following Drew’s lead and compromise with Sonny and Carly.
Upset, Willow then opened up to Chase, who urged her to do what was right for the kids. Carly took her turn trying to talk Tracy into giving up the kids, but Tracy threw Carly’s past in her face and refused.
Chase gave it a go but when Tracy continued to refuse to budge, Martin and Drew arrived with officers to place Tracy under arrest! Willow told Sonny and Carly she wouldn’t stop them from seeing Michael and they all worked to figure out the next steps in his care.
Willow wanted to keep him close but Carly thought the European clinic was the best option, so they agreed to wake Michael up and let him decide himself.
Cyrus Under Suspicion!
Isaiah and Lucas stabilized Michael and suspected that the change in his condition was due to digitalis so they sent the IV bag to be tested. Portia privately asked Brad to do some unofficial investigating to find out if other deaths in the hospital had been caused by digitalis.
After speaking to someone from Cyrus’ mission, Lucky and Josslyn exchanged information about the villain. After Lucas told Liz about Michael their suspicions, Lucky joined in and they tried to find a connection between all the patients to figure out why Cyrus wanted them dead.
Lucky and Liz had a meal at the Port Charles Grill to watch Cyrus and spilled a drink so Lucky could berate him and Liz could get on his good side. Josslyn wanted Anna to arrest Cyrus but all she could do was bring him in for questioning. After he was released, Josslyn put up a stink about him stabbing Dex, and Anna was annoyed that now Cyrus knew exactly which of his tracks to cover.
Lulu Gets Desperate!
Lulu complained to her mom about losing her chance to get Charlotte back, and Laura reassured her daughter she’d help her get another. She also filled Lulu in on Charlotte stalking Anna leading to the tragic shooting. Lulu turned to Tracy to see if she’d help fund her search for Charlotte but Tracy could tell she didn’t have a solid lead or plan and didn’t want her wasting time or money. Lulu went to Deception to apply for a job at Deception so she would have money to search for Charlotte and get a place to bring her home to, but Maxie wondered if she could really work as Brook Lynn’s assistant.
More Bad Luck for Cody!
Cody wanted to invest the $50,000 he got from Drew in a crypto company but after Tracy warned him not to, he decided to place a big bet on an upcoming PCU football game through Brad and his Aunt Selina. Unfortunately, PCU lost. While Cody was reminiscing with Dante about his always sneaking off to the girl’s camp to see Brook Lynn, Selina visited but Cody insisted he was done with gambling. Cody gave Brad a check that didn’t quite cover the full amount of the bet and Brad warned his aunt wouldn’t be happy. Lucas wondered what was going on and when Brad happily came clean about everything, he appreciated it.
Trina Worried About Kai
Kai revealed to Trina that he was torn between staying in school and entering the NFL draft now and she urged him to do what was best for himself. Emma joined Gio and Trina at the Brown Dog Bar to watch the PCU game and when Felicia arrived, she warned Emma not to get in trouble again. During the game, Kai was injured and Trina feared it was serious. Ava noticed Trina was distracted at work and sent her to visit Kai at the hospital. There, he admitted that his injury would keep him out of the draft this year, but now he could focus on school.
Around Port Charles
Alexis expressed to Drew her concerns about Scout, who Sam wanted living with her brothers, not in a hotel. Drew refused her offer to let Scout stay with her and insisted Willow could be just what Scout needed. Jordan kept Drew from getting into a fight with Cody in public and warned him to start acting right. Chase and Brook Lynn both went for examinations to find out why they were having difficulty getting pregnant. Sidwell came to the gallery looking for art for his new home and was surprised when Ava revealed she used to live in Wyndemere. She helped him choose a painting and he invited her to come help him find the perfect place for it. Ric took the check Sidwell gave Ava as her first payment for services rendered.
