Taggert tried to tell Sonny that he was wrong in suspecting that he had been involved with the drug trade in Port Charles. Before Taggert could explain himself to Sonny, Mac arrived and informed them that Matt had died of a drug overdose. Taggert was shocked by the news and he blasted Sonny and Mac and told Mac that he was too close to Sonny. Mac defended his treatment of Sonny and threatened to fire Taggert if he continued his personal vendetta against Sonny. Taggert assured Mac that he was being objective and they began working on a strategy. Brenda arrived at Jax's penthouse only to see that Miranda was also there. Miranda tried to lure Brenda into confessing about her night with Sonny, but an unaware Jax defended Brenda and asked Miranda to leave. Brenda, however, was unable to tell Jax that she had slept with Sonny. Later, Miranda confronted Brenda and told her to come clean. Meanwhile, Luke goaded Stefan about Katherine and his ability as head of the Cassadine family. Luke mentioned the Faberge egg that Nikolas had given to Lesley Lu, and Stefan later saw that the mysterious egg had been replaced by another in his safe. An enraged Stefan then threw the phony egg against the wall which alarmed Bobbie. Nikolas tried to put the damper on any potential Katherine and Stefan romance by reminding Katherine that Stefan was happily married to Bobbie. Nikolas covered his feelings for Katherine by insisting that she contact him for help instead of Stefan. Luke called Laura and told her that the game was about to begin again.

Luke told Laura that Stefan now knew that they had the egg and would be making a move soon. Bobbie was unable to fathom why Stefan was so mad at Nikolas for giving the egg to Lesley Lu.

Meanwhile, Brenda learned that Miranda knew that she had slept with Sonny in the catacombs. Miranda said that if Brenda did not tell Jax the truth, she would.

Carly thanked AJ again for "helping" her during their night together at Jake's. AJ remembered that Carly's perfume was the same one that she had been wearing on the night they had meet at Jake's. Sonny told Jason that Dorman was responsible for the drug trade in Port Charles. Sonny saw that Jason wanted to retaliate immediately and had to order him to stay cool for now.

Luke passed out flyers at the hospital for the big event at the club and saw that Bobbie had received a "welcome back" gift from Stefan.

A sad Katherine told Bobbie that there was nothing going on between her and Stefan, but a devastated Bobbie left unconvinced. Bobbie later vented her marital woes to Tony and broke down in his arms.
