Expanded Descriptions Wednesday, September 2, 2009 - At the hospital, Edward was feeling optimistic after a cardiology checkup. Patrick advised Edward to take it easy at the carnival. Edward insisted that he had the heart of a 40-year-old man, not an 80-year-old man. Nearby, Andrea eavesdropped on the conversation, while clutching a bottle of digitalis. She was startled when Matt approached her from behind. Andrea immediately went on the defensive, claiming that she'd been trying to avoid Robin and her false allegations of murder. Matt didn't believe Andrea, but she left before he could call her on it. After Edward departed, Matt warned Patrick that Andrea had been spying on him. Patrick suspected that Andrea was nervous. As the brothers talked about Robin's investigation, Matt confessed that he was impressed with Robin's instincts. Patrick agreed, but he didn't want Matt to encourage Robin. Patrick feared that Robin might end up donning a catsuit to rappel into the Floyds' bedroom in order to prove that Andrea was a killer. Matt was curious what kind of evidence Robin had gathered. Patrick revealed that Robin had obtained a list of people who had used their credit cards in the hotel during the three hours prior to Brianna's murder. Robin hoped to discover a witness who could place Andrea at the scene of the crime. Andrea sought legal advice from an attorney; she wanted to know if a lawyer would be obligated to report a client who had murdered someone . The attorney explained that lawyers were bound by attorney-client privilege. However, he warned Andrea that if there was a witness to the crime, the police were likely to find that person. Andrea suggested that it might not matter if the elderly witness passed away before the police had an opportunity to question him. Monica tracked Edward down at the Metro Court restaurant. Edward was celebrating because he had passed his cardiology tests. Monica was relieved; however, she had a different reason for seeking Edward out. She showed him a flier for the upcoming carnival and then explained that she wanted Edward to "schmooze" all of the big spenders at the kick-off party. Edward agreed because the money would go to Michael's foundation. When Edward mentioned drinking at the party, Monica offered to send a car, which would take him to the carnival afterwards. Edward declined Monica's offer; he insisted on driving himself. Monica didn't like the idea, but she wasn't in a position to stop Edward, since she would be out of town. Monica explained that big events in Port Charles had a habit of ending badly, so she had decided to forgo the carnival. At home, Andrea sipped on a drink while she looked up the side effects of digitalis. According to what Andrea had read, digitalis could cause cardiac arrest if improperly administered. Andrea smiled as she admitted that she never really liked Edward. Maxie and Spinelli stopped short when they entered the penthouse to find Jason and Sam in a passionate embrace. Spinelli beamed with joy while Maxie tried to gracefully exit without embarrassing Sam. Maxie's efforts were in vain, because Spinelli clapped his hands as he congratulated Jason and Sam on reconciling. Jason ordered Spinelli to be quiet, while Sam stammered an excuse and then fled the penthouse. Maxie was stunned when Jason didn't follow Sam. She explained to Jason that Sam had been mortified. Jason refused to discuss Sam with Spinelli and Maxie. Maxie tactfully changed the subject to inform Jason that Spinelli had something important to ask him. Spinelli took exception to Maxie's interference; he assured Maxie that he could handle things on his own. Maxie decided to check on Sam. Before she left, Maxie advised Spinelli to save the discussion about the pink tie for last. After Maxie departed, Jason wondered what a pink tie had to do with anything. Spinelli tried to turn the discussion back to Jason and Sam, but Jason remained tight-lipped about the subject. Spinelli kept prodding until Jason admitted that Sam had helped him find Michael and Kristina, but he would not elaborate beyond that. Spinelli decided to share the news about his upcoming nuptials. When Spinelli asked Jason to be his best man, Jason hesitated. Jason didn't relish being part of a big, elaborate wedding. Spinelli pleaded with Jason; according to Spinelli, he couldn't imagine anyone else standing next to him on such a momentous occasion. Jason eventually capitulated, but he made it clear that he would not wear a pink tie. At Sam's apartment, Maxie questioned Sam about her relationship with Jason. Sam insisted that nothing was going on with Jason; she claimed that they simply worked well together. Maxie didn't appear to believe her. However, she let the matter drop in order to tell Sam about her engagement. Sam was surprised when Maxie confided that she didn't want to get married. Maxie feared that her marriage would negatively impact her career. Sam suggested that Maxie discuss it with Spinelli. Maxie admitted that she had tried, to no avail. A short time later, Maxie returned to the penthouse. Upon entering, she demanded that Jason invite Sam to the carnival. Maxie insisted that it was the only way for Jason to make amends for embarrassing Sam. At Greystone Manor, Sonny and Kristina had a heart-to-heart talk. Sonny revealed that he didn't blame Kristina for what had happened. He blamed himself for not being around as much as he should have been. Kristina took responsibility for her actions. She realized that she had made many poor choices including leaving the scene of the accident. Sonny reminded Kristina that she had been terrified. Kristina didn't think that fear excused her behavior. Sonny wouldn't let Kristina beat herself up; he pointed out that she had eventually told the truth. Kristina argued that she'd only confessed when she had to. Sonny insisted that Kristina had been through enough. He didn't want her confessing to something that would follow her for the rest of her life. Sonny felt that it was too high of a price for Kristina to pay. Max interrupted their talk. He claimed that there was an urgent matter, which required Sonny's attention. Kristina told Max that she and her father were in the middle of something, but Sonny interjected. Sonny explained that Max wouldn't have interrupted them if it weren't important. Kristina appeared disappointed until Sonny promised to take her to the carnival the following day. Before she left, Sonny handed Kristina some money to buy herself something pretty to wear. After Kristina's departure, Max revealed that a shipment had been intercepted. Sonny was surprised; he realized that it was likely someone in his organization was in cahoots with the police. Olivia and Johnny enjoying postcoital pillow talk on her living room floor. When Johnny invited Olivia to the carnival, she explained that she had to work in one of the booths on behalf of the Michael Corinthos Foundation. She didn't think that Johnny would want to wait all day until she was finished with work. Johnny suspected that Olivia was just trying to avoid running into Sonny while she was with Johnny. After Olivia and Johnny got dressed, Olivia denied that she was worried about Sonny's reaction to seeing her with Johnny. As if on cue, Sonny knocked on the front door. Olivia was eager to show Johnny that she had nothing to hide from Sonny. Johnny smiled as Olivia opened the door and Sonny saw Johnny standing in the living room. Sonny ignored Johnny; he explained to Olivia that he intended to take his children to the carnival. Citing security reasons, Sonny wanted Olivia to arrange for the children to be moved to the front of the line. Olivia pointed out that Sonny's demands would simply draw more attention to his children. At the Jacks residence, Michael was surprised when Carly and Jax announced that Sonny had assigned Dominic to protect Michael and Morgan. Morgan was delighted with the arrangement, but Michael refused to have a bodyguard watch over him. Dominic asked to speak privately to Michael. After everyone cleared out, Dominic reminded Michael that Sonny had dangerous enemies. Dominic also believed that Morgan would follow Michael's lead. If Michael refused to have a bodyguard, then Morgan would likely object. Michael admitted that Dominic had a point. However, Michael was distracted because he had a sense that his conversation with Dominic wasn't as private as he had hoped. When Michael dared his family to show themselves, Carly and Morgan stepped forward from different hiding spots. Neither Carly nor Morgan apologized for their behavior. When Jax returned to the living room, Michael announced that he would accept Dominic as a bodyguard. Carly smiled while Morgan whooped with joy; Morgan was excited because Dominic would be attending the carnival with them. A short time later, Sonny arrived to welcome his son home. Sonny took the opportunity to assure Michael that he would have forgiven him, if Michael had been the one to cause Claudia's accident. Carly, Morgan, and Jax entered the living room moments later. Olivia was not pleased to find Dante standing on her doorstep. She warned Dante that he couldn't keep dropping by unannounced. Olivia worried that Dante would cross paths with Sonny or Johnny. Dante appeared unconcerned as he made himself comfortable on the sofa and then casually revealed that he'd been assigned to protect Michael and Morgan. Elizabeth was on break from the hospital when she spotted Nikolas standing on the piers. She hesitated, seemingly undecided about whether or not to acknowledge him, until Nikolas saw her. Elizabeth returned Nikolas' smile as she approached him. Nikolas confessed that he'd been thinking of her and the picnic. Nikolas went on to explain that he had hoped that they could all get together again. Elizabeth suggested that Nikolas and Spencer join her, Lucky, and the boys at the carnival. She thought it might help take Nikolas' mind off of his troubles for a while. Before Nikolas could reply, Rebecca walked up. Elizabeth was startled when Nikolas affectionately greeted Rebecca and then invited her to the carnival. Rebecca agreed, provided that it was okay with Elizabeth. Elizabeth didn't raise any objections, but she did excuse herself moments later. After Elizabeth walked away, Rebecca confessed that she had been surprised by Elizabeth's reaction. Nikolas explained that Elizabeth just wanted him to be happy. According to Nikolas, Rebecca made him happy. Rebecca admitted that she felt the same way about Nikolas. She also confided that she was relieved that everything was out in the open. At Wyndemere, Alfred handed Nikolas a package that Nikolas had ordered. Alfred confessed that he was curious about Nikolas' intentions toward Rebecca. Nikolas confided that he planned to let Rebecca take Emily's place. Nikolas had decided to start with the clothes; he had purchased a dress for Rebecca similar to one Emily had owned. Once Rebecca was comfortable and secure in her position, Nikolas intended to pull the rug out from under her. Nikolas wanted Rebecca to pay for what she had done. Rebecca arrived at Wyndemere a short time later. She was surprised when Nikolas presented her with a gift: a dress that he wanted Rebecca to wear to the carnival. Kristina chatted on the phone with one of her friends as she walked along the pier. After Kristina disconnected the call, she spotted Claudia approaching. Claudia hugged Kristina as she welcomed her home. Kristina immediately began apologizing for the accident. Claudia assured Kristina that she didn't hate her. To Kristina's astonishment, Claudia insisted that they should put everything behind them. Kristina thought that it was an incredibly generous gesture for Claudia to make. Lucky went to the hospital to invite Elizabeth and the boys out for cheeseburgers. When Lucky mentioned inviting Nikolas to join them, Elizabeth told him about her encounter with Nikolas and Rebecca on the pier. Lucky agreed that it seemed odd that Nikolas had forgiven Rebecca so quickly. Elizabeth admitted that she was worried. As carnival music began to play, Jason called Sam to invite her to the festival. Sam happily accepted. Elsewhere, Rebecca opened her gift while Dante left his mother's apartment. At that same moment, Andrea sat in her home, sipping on a drink and contemplating murder. Across town, Edward enjoyed a martini at Metro Court. On the piers, Kristina and Claudia waved goodbye to each other as they parted ways. At the Jacks residence, Sonny spent time laughing and visiting with Carly, Jax, and the boys. Meanwhile, Elizabeth and Lucky entered the elevator as they left the hospital with Cameron and Jake in tow. Lastly, Spinelli and Maxie stood kissing in the penthouse. Thursday, September 3, 2009 - At Jason's apartment, Sam stopped by and was surprised when Jason asked her to attend the carnival with him. She knew it wasn't something he would typically attend, so she guessed that Maxie and Spinelli had convinced him to attend the fair and said Sam should accompany him. They talked back and forth about whether or not each one really wanted to attend, or if they really wanted to attend with each other. Sam and Jason's discussion regarding the carnival abruptly ended when Carly stopped by to thank both Jason and Sam for taking Michael and Kristin home. Although Sam made a quick exit, Carly had already seen the signs that Sam and Jason were back together. Jason was worried when Carly started gasping for air, but she revealed that she was just in shock that he was back together with Sam. She gave him some advice that she didn't always follow herself, and warned him to be truthful with Sam. Later, Sam again arrived at Jason's apartment and told him that he didn't have to take her to the carnival, because she had to work. Jason knew Sam didn't have to work, so he called her out and told her she would attend the carnival with him. Sam was happy at Jason's insistence that they spend the evening together. When Maxie stopped by Sam and Spinelli's detective agency, Spinelli told her he had to work and would not be able to attend the carnival. That didn't sound like Spinelli, so Maxie pushed until she convinced Spinelli to reveal the truth. He was afraid of clowns. Sam stepped in and required that Spinelli attend the carnival with all of them. Maxie decided that if Spinelli dressed up as a clown, it would cure him of his fear. At Kelly's, Dominic ran into Lulu and asked what time he should pick her up for the carnival. Just as Lulu was turning Dominic down, Matt walked in and also asked if Lulu would like to attend the carnival with him. Matt, embarrassed, realized that Dominic was also there to ask Lulu out. Lulu ended all of Matt's embarrassment when she accepted his offer to attend the carnival. Dominic smiled, defeated but not dejected. Lulu immediately rushed to the hospital and confided in Carly and Olivia about her new crush, Dominic. Olivia immediately started coughing when she heard the name, and tried to make excuses to leave. When Dominic showed up, he put on his usual charm, but Lulu accused him of following her. Dominic said it was just fate, but Lulu ended up leaving and allowed Olivia a chance to lecture Dominic. At the hospital, Robin found Patrick and Elizabeth, and told them her good news. She had found a witness who could place Andrea at the Metro Court on the date of Brianna's death, Edward Quartermaine. Meanwhile, Edward was drinking at the Metro Court with Andrea. When Edward's back was turned, Andrea dumped a vial of poison into Edward's drink. Instead of drinking it, though, he offered Andrea a drink of his own ,since she had turned down his offer to buy her a drink. Andrea had to think quickly, and decided she would like her own drink. As they toasted to Edward's health, though, Edward's drink fell from his hands, saving him from the poisonous concoction. When Rebecca arrived at Wyndemere, Nikolas told her she looked beautiful, but suggested she go back to her natural hair color. Rebecca worried that he wanted her to look more like Emily, but Nikolas insisted that her natural hair color would make her even more beautiful than she already was. Later, Rebecca arrived at the docks with Spencer to greet Elizabeth, Lucky, and the boys. Although Lucky complimented Rebecca, Liz noticed the dress she was wearing was very similar to something Emily would have worn. When Rebecca mentioned that the dress was a gift from Nikolas, Liz made up an excuse to allow Rebecca and Lucky to take the kids to the carnival without her. Liz arrived back at Wyndemere and demanded to know why Nikolas was dressing Rebecca like Emily, his deceased girlfriend. Meanwhile, Anthony was in his prison cell and said he was planning to send a surprise over to the carnival. Friday, September 4, 2009 - At the carnival kick-off party, Jax and Carly mingled with the guests while Andrea gestured to the bar as she invited Edward to pick his poison. Edward ordered a martini, which Andrea managed to lace with a deadly dose of digitalis. However, before Edward could consume the tainted cocktail, he spotted Deirdre Evans across the room. Andrea snarled with frustration as Edward placed his martini on the bar and then approached Deirdre. Edward was delighted when Deirdre confided that she had rented room 705 for the night. Edward promised to meet his paramour as soon as he could get away. As Deirdre headed to the room, Andrea appeared at Edward's side with the martini. As Edward lifted the poisoned drink to his lips, Monica swept in to snatch the glass out of Edward's hand. Monica refused to allow Edward to drink and drive. Temporarily stymied, Andrea returned to the bar to re-group. Andrea was livid when she overheard Mac apologizing to Alexis. Andrea accused Alexis of murder, and then suggested that Mac was covering up Alexis' crimes. Alexis reminded Andrea that she was not an officer of the court; therefore, Andrea's constant public accusations could be considered harassment. Mac stepped in before the situation escalated. Alexis decided that she'd had enough of Andrea's antics, so she walked away. Monica offered to arrange for a car to take Edward to the carnival. She refused to allow Edward to drive after he'd been drinking. Edward assured Monica that he was as "sober as a judge." Monica didn't have time to argue, because she was preparing to leave town. She advised Edward to be careful and then promised to call him once she arrived in Toronto. Andrea pounced as soon as Monica walked away from Edward. She pretended to be upset about her encounter with Mac and Alexis. Edward advised Andrea to maintain a low profile until the situation had resolved itself. Andrea kept trying to tempt Edward to drink his martini, but Edward didn't seem interested. Eventually, Andrea claimed that she was somewhat hurt by Edward's refusal to drink with her. When Andrea toasted to Edward's health, Edward finally lifted the glass to his lips and drank the deadly martini. Andrea watched Edward intently as an expression of satisfaction slowly crossed her features. At Wyndemere, Elizabeth confronted Nikolas about his plans for Rebecca. She realized that Nikolas intended to break Rebecca's heart. Elizabeth implored Nikolas to stop before it was too late. She reminded Nikolas that he had Spencer to consider. If Nikolas went through with his plans, Spencer would be hurt when he lost another person that he had grown to care about. At the carnival, Lucky and Rebecca were surprised to find Ethan working at one of the booths. Ethan noticed the dress that Rebecca was wearing; he commented that it looked like a dress that belonged to someone else. Rebecca tried to hide her discomfort behind a strained smile. Later, Nikolas met up with Rebecca at the carnival. Rebecca was annoyed when they ended up at Ethan's booth. Nikolas smiled as Ethan handed him the game balls. Nikolas' smile hid his true intent; he targeted Ethan with the balls. Ethan immediately returned the volley. Rebecca managed to stop their childish behavior before someone was hurt. Spinelli stood in the penthouse, dressed as a clown. He thanked Sam for taking over his case, so that he could conquer his fear of clowns at the carnival. Spinelli screeched when he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror, but he recovered quickly from the fright. After Spinelli left, Sam smiled up at Jason. She showed him the case file as proof that she had to work, after all. Sam was surprised when Jason offered to help her with the investigation. Later, Jason and Sam were staked out in Metro Court's hallway, near room 705. Sam explained that she had been hired to follow Deirdre Evans because Deirdre's business partner suspected her of wrongdoing. After Deirdre entered her hotel room, Sam received a text alert that Deirdre had recently purchased a negligee in the hotel's boutique. Sam was certain that Deirdre was meeting a lover. When a hotel guest spotted Jason and Sam lurking in the hallway, she immediately suspected that they were thieves who were casing the hotel rooms. She threatened to call security if Jason and Sam did not leave. Sam introduced Jason as her fiancé before she launched into a story about how they were trying to decide if they should book a honeymoon suite. The guest apologized for the misunderstanding, advised Jason and Sam not to spare any expense for their honeymoon, and then left. Jason admitted that Sam was good at what she did. Sam smiled with pride; she confessed that she enjoyed her work. However, she didn't understand why most of her cases revolved around sex. Just then, a bellboy arrived with chilled champagne for Deirdre's room. Sam considered the champagne delivery to be further proof that Deirdre was meeting a lover. Diane and Max were in bed after making love. Max admitted that it bothered him that Diane didn't seem to be interested in things such as what Max liked to read. Diane argued that she was curious about his life, but Max wasn't swayed. When Diane remembered that she was expected at the carnival kick-off party, she suggested that Max wait for her in bed until she returned. Max bristled; he asked her if that was her way of saying that he was good enough to sleep with, but not good enough to take to the party. Diane clarified that she hadn't asked him to go to the party because she thought that he would have been bored to tears. Max announced that he was tried of being Diane's "plaything." He decided that he would go to the carnival without her. Moments later, Max left. At Greystone Manor, Claudia assured Sonny that she did not blame Kristina for their son's death. Sonny wondered if Claudia should go with him to the carnival. He was worried that seeing Kristina would stir up painful memories. Claudia insisted that she was fine. She argued that it might help Kristina move forward if she felt comfortable around Claudia. Dominic, Michael, Morgan, and Molly arrived at the carnival. Michael had an uneasy feeling, but brushed it off in order to enjoy the day. As they made their way through the carnival, they met up with Sonny and Claudia. Claudia resented Dominic's presence; she managed to quickly persuade Sonny to dismiss him, so that they could enjoy some time together as a family. After Dominic walked away, a clown approached Sonny. Sonny was annoyed by the clown's balloons. However, he wasn't surprised when the clown turned out to be Spinelli. Patrick sat on the bench in the dunking tank waiting for Robin to hit the target. To Robin's frustration, she had failed to dunk Patrick. When Lulu and Matt came along, they tried their hand at throwing a ball at the target, but without success. Max was the next person to make an attempt to dunk Patrick; like the others, Max failed. Eventually, Sonny and the children approached the booth. Molly was confident that she knew how to dunk Patrick. Michael doubted her ability, but Sonny didn't. He bought Molly an opportunity to test her theory. Molly dunked Patrick on her first try. Soon Johnny, Dominic, and Ethan took turns sitting on the bench while Molly successfully struck her target with each throw. Everyone laughed while they cheered on Molly. Later, Sonny and Kristina went to see a fortune-teller. The old woman acknowledged that Kristina was a child of privilege. According to the gypsy, despite Kristina's advantages, she felt alone and abandoned. The fortune-teller promised Kristina that her cry for help would be heard and answered. However, she warned Kristina that the danger to her was real and it would come from where Kristina least expected it. Sonny accused the gypsy of knowing who he was, but the woman denied it. After Sonny and Kristina left the fortune-teller, Kristina went to see some of her friends. A short time later, Sonny met up with Molly, Morgan, and Michael. As they walked through the carnival, they bumped into Alexis. Lulu was in the hospital's lounge, waiting for Matt, when Dominic stepped off of the elevator. Dominic commented that he had seen her at the dunking booth. Lulu smiled in remembrance. Moments later, Matt approached. Matt apologized and then explained that he had to work because of a staff shortage. Lulu assured Matt that she understood. After Matt walked away, Dominic looked at Lulu with an expectant smile. In the hospital's locker room, Patrick dried off while Robin announced her decision to go to Metro Court. She wanted to check on Edward. Robin was worried that Andrea might try to harm Edward if she realized that he could place Andrea at the Metro Court on the night of Brianna's murder. Kristina was rattled after her encounter with the fortune-teller. Kiefer managed to say the right things to ease Kristina's fears. As Kiefer leaned down to kiss Kristina, Claudia approached them. Claudia immediately chastised Kristina for sneaking off with Kiefer. Claudia reminded Kristina that Sonny did not approve of the young man. After Kiefer left, Kristina started to open up to Claudia about her relationship with Sonny. Claudia suggested that they take a ride on the Ferris Wheel, so that they could speak privately. In jail, Anthony smiled with maniacal glee because his diabolical plans were moving forward. Anthony was confident that Sonny's world was about to be destroyed. In an undisclosed location, Anthony's henchmen armed themselves with an arsenal of weapons. no show Monday, September 7 Tuesday, September 8, 2009 - At the carnival, Sonny found Alexis with Molly and Morgan, who were shooting pretend assault rifles in a game Coleman was manning. Sonny knew Alexis wasn't happy over the choice of game, and he reminded her that he wasn't to blame. Alexis countered and said that although Sonny had not actually recommended the game, his lifestyle promoted violence. Morgan and Molly were both upset when they couldn't hit the target. Sonny asked Coleman if he was taking money from children for a game that was rigged. Coleman said it was all for charity, but Sonny bribed Coleman to fix the gun. Morgan was thrilled when he hit the target and won the Yankees helmet he had wanted. Claudia and Kristina were in line for the Ferris wheel when Michael found them and told Kristina that Alexis was looking for her. He actually managed to convince Kristina to leave, despite objections from Claudia. Before they left, though, Kristina mentioned that Michael had a feeling something bad was going to happen and talked about the fortune teller. Claudia told the kids not to pay any attention to a carnival fortune teller. They were only there to take money away from carnival attendees. Keifer found Kristina with Michael as they were looking for Alexis. Kristina begged Michael to give her a little time to be with Keifer. Michael wasn't happy, but Keifer and Kristine headed off towards the rides. Rebecca asked what the point of the game was, since hitting each other with the baseball was all Ethan and Nikolas seemed capable of. Ethan said he was just trying to knock some sense into them. Rebecca showed she could throw a baseball by knocking down all three jugs with just one throw. Nikolas helped Rebecca pick out a teddy bear that Spencer would like, and Rebecca left to give the bear to the little boy. Nikolas told her to return with Spencer if he was awake. After Rebecca left, Nikolas told Ethan to have patience. Nikolas intended to dump Rebecca after he was done with his revenge. Even though Ethan didn't like Rebecca with Nikolas, she didn't deserve to be hurt. Elizabeth walked over and heard the conversation. She asked Nikolas what he was doing, and Nikolas said he thought people were supposed to play games at carnivals. Nikolas walked away, and Ethan told Liz to stop Nikolas from hurting Rebecca. He told her she was supposed to be the almighty ethical one. In the Metro Court, Jason and Sam were investigating Deidre, when Spinelli texted Sam and gave her the phone number with whom Deidre was talking to. Jason and Sam recognized the number as Edward's, and Sam decided to drop the investigation. It was apparent that Deidre and Edward were an item, and Sam didn't want to get in the middle of the old man's joy. Meanwhile, Edward was enjoying a drink with Andrea. Unbeknownst to him, the drink was poisoned. As soon as Edward polished off his drink, Andrea told him she had taken too much of his valuable time and prepared to leave. Andrea didn't get far, because Robin and Patrick spotted her. Robin told Edward and Andrea to wait, because she had something she wanted both of them to hear. She said Edward had rented a room within eyesight of the room where Brianna Hughes had been murdered. Edward denied renting a room at the Metro Court, but Robin said she had the credit card records to prove it. Andrea told them she wouldn't be a part of that invasion of privacy, and she warned Edward to stay away from Robin. Robin said that Edward could testify that Andrea was in the area at the time of Brianna's murder, but Edward denied that he would testify against Andrea. After Andrea left, Robin wondered aloud what gave Andrea her confidence. Back at the carnival, Dominic and Lulu approached Alice's game. Dominic wanted to give it a try, but Lulu told him the cards were always stacked in favor of the house. It was something she had learned when she was five years old. Dominic was surprised Lulu had learned anything about gambling when she was only five, but he offered her a deal. If he could ring the bell, she had to stay with him at the carnival and try to have some fun. If Dominic didn't ring the bell, Lulu could leave. Dominic approached Alice and bribed her to make sure he hit the bell. Alice thanked him and stepped away, and Lulu tried to give Alice money to make sure Dominic didn't ring the bell. Alice took her money and walked away, leaving for a break and allowing Mercedes to take over. As it turned out, Dominic didn't need a bribe and won a stuffed animal for Lulu. She thanked him for the platypus, and he didn't know what she was talking about. When she said duck, he understood, though. He told her she didn't need to use fancy words, even if smart girls did impress him. When Dominic's phone rang, he apologized and left to answer it. While Lulu was alone, Johnny approached her and complimented her stuffed beaver. Lulu said it was a platypus, but Johnny asked who could tell with a stuffed animal. Lulu told him girls could always tell what kind of stuffed animal they had. Dominic approached them and apologized to Lulu. He had to go to the warehouse; it was one of the bad things about being the low man on the totem pole. Johnny offered to go in his place, and Dominic thanked him and said he owed him. Johnny said no, because he owed it to Lulu. Sonny found Carly and Jax, and Carly asked where Morgan was. Morgan was on a ride, and Carly was excited to see him. Jax and Sonny thought Carly meant to ride, also, but Carly said she just wanted to watch her son. As Carly and Jax left, Sonny turned to leave and bumped into Olivia, spilling her popcorn. They reminisced over the old days at Coney Island as Sonny bought Olivia new popcorn. Sonny told her that the days at Coney Island were some of the best of his life, and Olivia was touched. Sonny told her it meant a lot to him that he had been Olivia's first. Dominic ran into Sonny and Olivia, and the Olivia became nervous and tried to escape. Sonny reminded Dominic that he was supposed to be watching Sonny's kids, though, so Dominic was quick to make his exit. Olivia had put a lot of hard work into the carnival, so Sonny didn't think she should have to leave. Sam and Jason walked into the carnival, and Sam talked about how much she had missed all the fun carnivals were. They were barely there when Spinelli, dressed as a clown, and Maxie appeared. Sam and Jason were amused at the sight of Spinelli. Maxie, though, looked less than thrilled to be there. Spinelli asked what had happened to their client, and Sam explained that she dropped the case due to a conflict of interest. Michael walked into the fortune teller's tent, and the woman said she had expected him. She asked what had taken him there, and Michael said he was just looking for a laugh. The fortune teller said that Michael had a gift, but he didn't know it yet. He hadn't been born with it but had acquired it after a deep year-long sleep. Michael couldn't figure out how she had known that, but then he said that Keifer and Kristina must have gone to the fortune teller earlier and set him up. As Alexis and her girls were talking, Andrea walked over and threatened Alexis. She told Alexis that she would soon be arrested, so she should enjoy her last family outing. Alexis was furious that Andrea would say anything in front of Kristina and Molly. The girls quickly left, but Alexis and Andrea continued their bitter argument. In jail, Anthony Zacchara told his visitor that he wanted every one of Sonny's warehouses hit. Anyone who got in the way also needed to be dealt with, starting with their old henchman, Dominic. The hit would take place right away, during the carnival. Meanwhile, Maxie helped Spinelli wipe the clown makeup off. They started to kiss but were stopped when the phone rang. Spinelli answered, and it was a business associates looking for Jason. The caller simply needed paperwork delivered to one of the warehouses, and Spinelli offered to help. There was no need to get Jason involved with something as simple as paperwork. Jason and Sam approached the game Coleman was running, and Sam mentioned she wanted a bear. Jason paid Coleman and started to shoot. After numerous attempts with the rigged gun, Jason pulled out his own gun. Coleman decided to avert a disaster and handed Jason the bear that Sam wanted. Jason and Sam walked away from the game but stopped when Jason saw Liz with Jake on the merry-go-round. Lucky was snapping pictures, and they seemed to make a happy family. When the ride was over, Jake started to run away from Liz. She yelled out to him, and Jason watched the scene from a distance. Edward got in his car and called Deidre to apologize for not making it up to his room. He hung up the phone and started the car. Just as Edward put the car in reverse, he started coughing. He continued backing out and started towards the carnival. Suddenly, Edward grabbed at his chest, obviously experiencing chest pains. He passed out and slumped onto the steering wheel, and his foot pressed down on the accelerator. As he neared the carnival, the parking lot attendant tried to stop Edward and was hit. Max was the next victim to be hit by Edward's car. The Port Charles residents watched as the car continued barreling into the fairgrounds. Spinelli arrived at the warehouse, but no one appeared to be there. Just as Spinelli turned on the lights, the gunmen entered. Spinelli tried to leap out of the way as the hail of gunfire started. Wednesday, September 9, 2009 - In jail, a guard entered the visitor's room to handcuff Anthony. Anthony grinned as he looked up at the clock and noted that it was 4:30 p.m. At the carnival, the fortune-teller warned Lulu, "Something wicked this way comes." As Edward drove to the carnival, he suddenly clutched his chest and then collapsed. The car crashed through the carnival ,and mowed down people and rides in its wake. One of the first causalities was Andrea Floyd, who had been arguing with Alexis just moments before. Max was also injured as he pushed a woman out of the way from the oncoming car. As Morgan stood frozen watching Edward's car careen toward him, Dominic sprang into action. He managed to shove Morgan to safety before Edward's car hit Dominic. Elsewhere at the carnival, Jason, Elizabeth, and Lucky stood frozen in horror as Jake wandered off seconds before Edward's car tore through the carnival. Jason, Elizabeth, and Lucky raced to the area where they'd last seen Jake. As they frantically dug through the wreckage, they heard a baby cry out. It was Jake. Elizabeth snatched her son up in her arms the moment they found him. Paramedics quickly loaded Jake onto a gurney and then raced him the hospital. Elizabeth and Lucky followed Jake. Jason remained behind, wandering through the devastation in a state of stunned disbelief while the injured crowd slowly made their way to medical aid. Ethan rushed to Edward's car. Edward was unconscious as Ethan pulled Edward out of the car. Robin and Patrick quickly surmised that Edward had suffered cardiac arrest. After Edward was taken to the hospital, Nikolas joined Rebecca. Nikolas explained that he had sent Spencer home with the nanny. Rebecca was relieved that Spencer had not been harmed. Nearby, Olivia raced to her son's side when she realized that he had been injured. Dominic insisted that he was fine, but it was apparent that Dominic had been gravely hurt. Sonny found Olivia's concern for Dominic curious. Olivia managed to explain it away while she watched the paramedics work on her son. Before Dominic was taken away, Sonny thanked Dominic for saving Morgan's life. At one of the rides, Molly called out for her sister. Claudia was forced to hold Molly back when the young girl attempted to run to the ride where she'd last seen Kristina. Claudia warned Molly that it was unsafe for her to search for her sister. When Claudia spotted Lulu, she asked Lulu to take Molly to the hospital. Molly refused to leave until Claudia promised to stay behind to search for Kristina. Claudia stopped one of the rescue workers to ask if they had found Kristina in the debris. The rescue worker explained that the ride that Kristina had been on had disintegrated; he did not hold out much hope that there had been any survivors. Inside the hospital, Robin checked out Molly. Robin quickly determined that Molly had only suffered minor scrapes and bruises. However, she asked that Lulu keep an eye on Molly in the event that Molly started to show signs of shock. Lulu decided to take Molly to the cafeteria. Molly was grateful for Lulu's company. Alexis was anxious to find her daughters. When she ran into Mac at the hospital, she begged him to help her. Max advised Alexis to check with the emergency room in case Molly or Kristina had been admitted. Moments later, Molly ran up to the mother. Alexis dropped to her knees in relief as she hugged her daughter fiercely. Afterwards, Alexis asked Molly where Kristina was. As Claudia continued to search for Kristina, a leg was seen poking out beneath the rubble of one of the rides. Patrick was concerned about Dominic's injuries, but Dominic continued to downplay them. Dominic refused to cooperate when Patrick asked Dominic for the name of a family member to contact. Dominic claimed that he didn't want his mother to worry about him. Dominic was also bothered by the number of people waiting for an update on his condition, so Patrick offered to send everyone away. After Patrick left, Morgan entered the examination room to talk to Dominic. Dominic tried in vain to hide that he was having difficulty breathing. Morgan thanked Dominic for saving his life, and then offered to give Dominic his New York Yankee helmet. Dominic wanted Morgan to hang on to it. Moments later, Dominic was seized by a coughing fit that produced blood. When Morgan returned to his family, Carly suggested going home. Morgan didn't want to leave, but Carly insisted that it was best for everyone. When Michael overheard that Kristina was missing, Michael took off to search for his sister. Carly tried to call out for her eldest son, but Michael ignored her. Sonny was stunned when he approached Olivia while she was saying some Hail Marys for Dominic. Sonny questioned Olivia's concern for a man that she barely knew. Olivia appeared to panic for a moment until Sonny unwittingly provided Olivia with a logical excuse. Sonny suspected that Dominic reminded Olivia of Dante. Moments later, Patrick emerged from Dominic's examination room. Sonny immediately offered to cover all of Dominic's medical expenses. Patrick appreciated the assurance; however, he was more interested in contacting Dominic's family. Patrick explained that Dominic was bleeding internally, but they were unable to determine the source of the injury. When Milo arrived at the hospital, a woman approached him. She introduced herself as Louise Addison; she claimed that she had been talking to Max when the car crashed through the carnival. According to Louise, Max had saved her life by pulling her away from the path of the car. Milo was shocked when Louise revealed that Max was unconscious and the doctors suspected that Max had suffered a spinal cord injury. Epiphany questioned Rebecca about Monica's whereabouts, because she didn't know how to reach Jason. Epiphany explained that someone needed to make medical decisions for Edward. Rebecca confessed that Monica had flown to a medical convention and that her flight wasn't expected to land for several hours. Ethan, who stood nearby, informed Epiphany that Tracy was also unavailable. According to Ethan, Tracy had gone to Manhattan and he had not been able to reach her on her cell phone. Nikolas suggested that Rebecca was the closest thing that Edward had to family. Later, Nikolas met Rebecca outside of Edward's room just as Robin approached. Nikolas had spoken to Alice, who had promised to contact Tracy and Monica. Robin explained that Edward had suffered a massive heart attack and had sustained injuries during the accident. He required immediate surgery. Rebecca told Robin that Edward was not ready to die; he would want every effort made to save his life. Rebecca spent some time with Edward before he was taken to surgery. Nikolas quietly approached as Rebecca spoke to Edward. She told Edward that she had always appreciated how Edward had accepted her; she confessed that she'd grown to view Edward as her grandfather. Rebecca wept as she begged Edward to fight to survive. At the hospital, Jason stood in the hallway as Jake was wheeled away for tests. Inside an examination room, the doctor explained to Lucky and Elizabeth that Jake's pupils were reactive, but that he had sustained some head trauma. When Elizabeth pushed for more information, the doctor admitted that it was possible that Jake had suffered a skull fracture. Lucky insisted on accompanying Jake for the tests. Elizabeth agreed; she had to call Audrey to let her know what had happened. After Lucky and the doctor left, Elizabeth sat down on the bed and then broke down in tears. Jason walked in moments later. When Elizabeth saw Jason, she tearfully told him about their son's injuries. Jason sat down next to Elizabeth, quietly put his arm around her, and then held her while she cried. Later, Elizabeth returned to the room. Jason was still there. She apologized for falling apart, but Jason waved the apology away; he was just as worried about Jake. The doctor popped his head into the room to ask Elizabeth to meet him in his office, where Lucky was waiting. Elizabeth promised to update Jason on Jake's condition as soon as possible. After Elizabeth left, Jason stepped out into the hallway just as Jake was being wheeled by. Sam appeared moments later. In Jake's hospital room, Lucky was frustrated because the doctor had not updated them on Jake's progress. Elizabeth was hopeful that the lack of news boded well. Meanwhile, Jason stood in the hallway watching them through the room's window. Sam stood next to Jason. She offered to get Jason anything that he needed, but Jason declined. As Sam started to walk away, Jason reached for her hand. Sam was startled by the action and looked up at Jason. Jason continued to stare into his son's hospital room. In the morgue, Mac was handed Andrea's personal effects. Mac couldn't believe the mayor's misfortune; first his mistress was murdered and now his wife had been killed. Spinelli was in the line of fire when Anthony's men ambushed him at a warehouse. Luckily for Spinelli, Johnny was on hand to save him. As the Zacchara men sprayed the warehouse with bullets, Johnny and Spinelli ducked for cover. Afterwards, the men were confident that they had killed whoever had been inside. Spinelli waited until the Zacchara gunmen had left before he turned to check on Johnny. Johnny had been shot and was bleeding heavily. Spinelli managed to help Johnny out of the warehouse. When they reached a safe location, Spinelli called 9-1-1. Spinelli was frustrated when his initial attempts to get through to an operator failed. By the time Spinelli did reach someone, Johnny's situation was dire. Thursday, September 10, 2009 - Outside of Jake's hospital room, Jason vowed to Sam that whoever hurt Jake would not get away with it. Sam told Jason that the tests were inconclusive about Jake, so maybe he did not have a skull fracture. She explained that the test would have said skull fracture if that was what he had. Sam told Jason that maybe Jake had a concussion or something less. Jason watched as Lucky and Elizabeth sat with Jake and waited on news from the doctors. Lulu approached and wanted an update on Jake. Jason told her that the doctors had told them to just wait. Lulu told Jason that it was awful that Edward was driving the car. Jason was surprised to find out that his grandfather had caused the accident. Lulu said that she'd heard that Edward had suffered a heart attack and was in emergency surgery. Sam said that was awful and asked Jason if Edward knew that Jake was Jason's son. He said no. Sam said that it was good, because she thought that Edward would be very upset to know that he hurt his great-grandson. Lulu walked inside the room and watched as Liz and Lucky sat with Jake. Elizabeth told Jake that he was a brave little boy and that his mommy and daddy loved him very much. Lucky looked lovingly at Liz, who was lying in bed cuddling Jake. Jason watched through the window of Jake's room and observed the three. Sam went to Jason and put her hand on his to comfort him. Lucky emerged from the room and told Sam, Jason, and Lulu that Jake just had a concussion and some bumps and bruises. Lucky said that Jake would be kept overnight for observation. Sam said that was a good idea. Lucky told Jason that he thought Jason should know. Jason thanked Lucky and so did Sam. Lulu said she would go tell everyone that Jake was okay. Sam thanked her, and Jason let out a huge sigh of relief. Jason and Sam sat in the waiting room. Jason said that he did not know if he should stay in the hospital, since he wasn't hurt, he wasn't helping anyone, and Jake was okay. Sam said that Edward was not okay. Jason said he needed to know why the accident had happened. He wanted to kill the driver before he knew it was Edward. He needed to know if it was a heart attack or if Edward was drunk. Jason expressed his sadness that Edward did not even know that one of the people he injured was his great-grandson. Then he said that it would not help Edward to know that. Jason said that he felt sorry for Edward, that the accident might be Edward's fault if he had been drinking, but that Edward had lost too much already. Sam recounted for Jason about the time that she worked for Edward. She told Jason that Edward only kept her around to be closer to Jason. Sam told him that his grandfather really missed him. Jason said that he didn't know how to feel about Edward, and that it had been really easy to hate him in the beginning. Jason said that Edward had not needed him because he had Alan, Justus, and A.J. to control, and his grandmother and Emily to love. However, all of them were gone. Sam said that Edward needed Jason and that Jason needed Edward, too. Jason expressed the difficulty of the situation that Edward and Jake were both injured, and that both didn't know that they were connected to each other through Jason. Sam told Jason that he knew about the connection and that was enough. She also said that Jason stayed in the hospital for Edward and for his son. She told him that it mattered that he was there. Jason thanked her. Patrick told Sonny and Olivia that they needed to contact Dominic's relatives because he needed surgery and a kidney transplant. Sonny said that he would handle contacting Dominic's mother. Olivia said that she would handle contacting the mother instead. Sonny said that Dominic had saved Morgan, so he should do it. Then he asked Olivia if she had a problem with him finding Dominic's mother. Patrick told Dominic about the seriousness of his condition and said that his family needed to be contacted. Dominic urged Patrick to just leave it alone. Olivia told Sonny that Dominic's mother might not know that he was in the business. Sonny said that she might be upset, but at least she could help her son. He called Bernie and said to get back to Sonny about Dominic's contact information. Claudia was outside searching near the collapsed ride and called Kristina's name. Under the wreckage, Kristina opened her eyes and saw Claudia's red high heeled shoes. Claudia walked off, still searching for Kristina. Michael approached Claudia and asked if she had found Kristina yet, and she said, "No." Michael told Claudia that he had to go look for Kristina. Claudia said that the rescue workers were looking and had not found anything. Michael said that Kristina must be trapped, and she had to be there somewhere. Claudia started to tell him about how the "accident" happened and, while she talked, Michael had a flashback memory of Claudia sitting by his bedside at the aftercare institute. He remembered when she had said that his getting shot at the warehouse was an "accident," and that she did not know he was going to be there. After the flash, Claudia was still talking about the ride collapse and apologized to Michael over and over. He said that his sister was not dead and they he had to go find her. Alexis and Molly went up to Sonny and asked if he had seen Kristina. Sonny was shocked to learn that Kristina was missing. Sonny asked Olivia to tell Patrick that he had to leave because one of his kids was in trouble. Alexis, Molly, and Sonny ran into Claudia, who relayed to them the events of how Kristina got trapped under the ride. She told Sonny that Michael went to look for Kristina. Sonny was surprised to find out about Michael going there. Sonny yelled that he had to go find his kids. Alexis thanked Claudia for saving Molly. Michael stood outside the Kite Flyer ride and called Kristina's name. He told her to answer him and then he spotted what appeared to be his trapped sister. Sonny stood by the nurses' station and said that he really wanted to do something, Alexis said that they were not allowing people in the search area. Before Sonny could go, Michael ran up and said that Kristina was on her way in. Kristina was wheeled in on a gurney and everyone expressed how worried they had been worried about her. Kristina told everyone that Michael saved her. Alexis and Sonny were very relieved. Sonny asked Kristina how she was, and she said she was happy to be safe. She told her father that she was surprised he was there. Sonny said that he wouldn't be anywhere else, that she was his daughter and he loved her. She said that she loved him, too. Rebecca talked to an unconscious Edward before he was taken to surgery. She called him grandfather and said that he had to be okay because she still owed him $10,000, and because Monica and Tracy would never let her hear the end of it if something happened to him. She told him that he needed to make it through surgery, because a lot of people loved him, including herself. Nikolas watched Rebecca from a distance. Rebecca cried and waited in a room alone for Edward to get back from surgery. Nikolas watched Rebecca from outside of the room. Rebecca felt a hand on her shoulder and when she turned around, it was Ethan. He kneeled by Rebecca and told her that he could stay or leave, whichever she needed. Rebecca said she wanted him to stay. Rebecca told Ethan that he had saved Edward's life. He said all he did was pull Edward out of the car. She said that Ethan was the first one there, and that he convinced Nikolas to carry Edward through the crowd, thus Edward got to the emergency room faster. Ethan joked that maybe he would get an award for it, and Rebecca told him that was not the reason he did it. Rebecca said that she did not understand how the accident happened. She told Ethan that Edward had undergone a complete cardiac work-up the previous day, and that he was in perfect health. She could not understand why he had a heart attack that day. Mac questioned Rebecca about Edward being at a party before the carnival. Rebecca told him that she was at the carnival beforehand with Spencer, and that she had not seen Edward since breakfast. Ethan asked Mac why he was even questioning Rebecca about that. Ethan said that Edward had a heart attack and there was no need to interrogate Rebecca. Mac said that if Edward was drinking before he had the heart attack, then he could be in serious trouble. Milo sat by the hospital bed of his brother, Max. Louise, the new A.D.A., also arrived to visit Max. She told Milo that she barely k new Max, that they met at the Dunk-a-Hunk, he bought her a stuffed animal, and then he saved her life. She wondered how she could thank him for that. Max woke up and Milo explained to him that he was in the hospital. Max looked up and asked Louise if she was okay. She said that she was, thanks to him. Lulu ran into Nikolas and told him that Jake was fine. He did not know that Jake had been hurt. She explained that Jake was spending the night at the hospital, but was going to be fine. Nikolas asked if Elizabeth was okay. Lulu said that Lucky and Liz were okay. Nikolas said that he would go check up on them. Olivia went to Dante's room to check on him. He told her to leave so that she would not blow his cover. Patrick listened outside the room as Olivia talked about Dante being her son. She told Dante that she was going to save him, even if she had to tell the doctors that Dominic Pirellidid not exist and that he was her son, Dante. Dante said that Olivia could not tell anyone about him being her son. Patrick continued to listen at the door. Dante told his mother that she had to keep Sonny from finding out that Dante was undercover, or Dante would be dead even sooner. Patrick walked away. Olivia told Dante that if he needed a kidney, then they had a lot of relatives that could help him. Dante wanted her to keep quiet until they found out if he needed the kidney, but she would not promise him. She only promised that she would not let him die. Olivia prayed in the chapel for Dante. She asked God to give her a sign about how she should handle the situation with Dante. She said that all her choices would put Dante in danger, so she turned it over to God. Elizabeth stepped outside of Jake's room and Lucky handed her a cup of coffee. Lucky told her that he did not know what they would have done if they had lost Jake. Liz said that they were not going to lose anything and that Lucky had told her to have faith that everything was going to be fine, and it was. Lucky said that Liz was the strongest person that he knew and that she was someone who he and the boys could always count on. She responded that she was just glad that Cameron had gone home early to have a sleep-over at the Goodsons'. Lucky asked Elizabeth if she was going to stay at the hospital for the night, and she said that she would not be anywhere else. He said that he had to go do some police work because of the huge accident. Lucky asked if Liz would be okay, and she said that she and Jake would be fine. Lucky expressed his gratitude in having Liz in his life and the boys . He said that they were the family he always wanted and that he was glad to have Liz in his life. She said that she was happy, too. Lucky went to say goodnight to Jake, and Liz stayed behind quietly with a tear in her eye. Jason walked up to Epiphany and asked her about Edward. She said she was sorry about not contacting Jason, but he said that it was okay that they could not get in touch with him. He was just happy that Edward went into surgery. Michael startled Claudia, who stood alone by the elevators. She asked him why he was staring at her. He told her that everything was fine. She told him that he was a real hero because he saved Kristina. He told her that it was crazy out there and that she must have walked right past Kristina. Claudia responded that she and all the rescue workers must have, and that Kristina must have been unconscious. Michael said that Kristina was awake when he found her. Later, Michael went to check on Kristina, and she told him that someone found her before he did. She said that a woman had walked away and Kristina just saw her shoes.

Sonny said that he was going to have to contact Dominic's family, and that was the last thing that any parent would want to hear. Lulu went to Dominic's room and told him that he was a hero. He continued to flirt with her, and asked her if she felt sorry enough for him to go out with him. She thanked him for saving her cousin, Morgan. Dominic had a very bad cough. He tried to downplay his pain and said he would be out of the hospital in no time, because he was a quick healer. Lulu told him that the day he got out of the hospital, she would go out with him, anywhere he wanted to go. Jason went to Edward's room and found Rebecca waiting by Edward's side. Rebecca talked to Jason near the door and told him that she was sorry about authorizing the surgery. He said that it was fine that she helped Edward. She asked him if the police had questioned him about Edward drinking and driving. Jason said no, but that the Quartermaine family had experienced issues with alcohol in the past. Rebecca said she did not believe that even if Edward was drinking that he was drunk when he had the heart attack. Edward opened his eyes, and Jason and Rebecca kept talking unaware of that. Rebecca talked about how much damage was done and how many people were hurt. She expressed that Edward would be heartbroken to know the damage he caused. She asked Jason to stay and said that Edward would probably rather see him than her. Jason said that Edward would probably rather see Rebecca. She asked Jason if she could tell Edward that he came by. Jason said she should tell Edward if she thought it would help. She thought that it would. Elizabeth sat beside Jake's bed. She heard a noise and went outside the room. Nikolas ran up to her and they hugged. He kissed her on the cheek and she kissed him on the mouth. Jason walked around the corner and witnessed this kiss and embrace. Robin entered the room where Andrea's autopsy was being conducted. She asked the attendant if she could go through Andrea's personal effects. The guy said that she could, so she opened Andrea's purse and, after a brief search, she found the drug that Andrea had given to Edward to cause his heart attack. Later, Robin saw Sonny and told him that Kristina was going to be okay. Then, Robin went up to Epiphany at the nurses' station and asked if she could go through Edward's blood work chart. Epiphany said that she had orders to not release the results without permission and that reporters had been asking for them. Robin expressed that she was a consulting physician on the case and could look at the chart. Epiphany insisted that she couldn't show Robin the results. Then Epiphany said that if she put down the chart and a doctor happened to read them without her permission, there was nothing that she could do about that. Robin said she understood. She took the results once Epiphany turned her back. Rebecca turned around and saw that Edward was awake. She said she would get the doctor. Edward asked her what he had done. Rebecca told Edward that he should rest. Ethan entered the room. Edward demanded that one of them tell him what he had happened. Mac entered the room and questioned Edward about the pre-carnival party and the accident. Ethan offered to get Edward's lawyer. Edward answered the questions, not knowing why he should need a lawyer. Edward said that he only had one martini and that he did not even want to go to the carnival. Edward could not believe what he had done. Robin entered the room and said that Edward was not drunk. She said that someone had been trying to kill him. Molly, Alexis, Sonny, Michael, and Claudia all waited for Kristina. Alexis thanked Claudia again for saving Molly. Sonny told Michael he was a hero for going after his sister and hugged his son. Sonny went to check on Dominic and told Michael to go back to Carly's. The Davises all got into the elevator with Michael, and Kristina looked back and thanked Claudia. As the elevator doors closed, Kristina noticed Claudia's red high heeled shoes. Patrick went to see Dominic and told him that his mother needed to tell his father about him. Dante said that his mother did not even know who his father was. Sonny entered the chapel and told Olivia that the nun from their old church would be proud of them praying. Olivia told him that she had been looking for a sign, and at that moment she knew what she had to do. Friday, September 11, 2009 - Robin entered Edward's room to find Rebecca, Ethan, and Mac gathered around him. Robin revealed that digitalis had been found in Edward's bloodstream, indicating that Edward had been poisoned. Robin shared her theory about Andrea's intention to kill Edward. Edward confirmed that Andrea had been hovering around him nearly the entire time that he'd been at the kick-off party. Ethan found it ironic that Andrea had been killed in the crash that she had, in effect, orchestrated. Despite Andrea's criminal activity, Edward felt responsible for having injured so many innocent people. Robin and Rebecca insisted that Edward was just as much a victim as the people who had been hurt in the crash. Mac decided to have his forensic department verify Robin's theory. If everything checked out, then Edward would be cleared of all wrongdoing. Rebecca lingered behind after the others had filed out of Edward's room. Edward feared that he had disappointed Lila with his behavior. During a break, Patrick and Robin talked about Andrea's attempt to kill Edward. Patrick admitted that it frightened him to think of what Andrea could have done to Robin. Robin confessed that she'd never been concerned for her own safety throughout the entire investigation; however, she conceded that she would be more careful the next time. Patrick was surprised by the comment. Robin admitted that she had enjoyed the challenge; it had been addicting. Elizabeth was spending time with her son when Rebecca approached her. While a nurse watched Jake, Elizabeth stepped into the hallway with Rebecca. Rebecca explained that Edward had suffered a heart attack and that his car had slammed through the carnival. Rebecca confided that Edward was guilt-ridden over the incident; she hoped that Elizabeth could talk to Edward to ease his conscience. Elizabeth admitted that she was still grappling with the reality of nearly losing Jake. Elizabeth confessed that she wasn't quite ready to face Edward, but she promised that she would visit him soon. |
