However, she goofs up a bit by mentioning her boat and AJ questions about what her grandfather got his fortune from, oil or shipping. Skye shows up with Dillon. She recognizes Sam from the hotel and confronts him about allowing Sam to lie to the family and claim to be an heiress when she really is some white trash maid.

Nikolas tells Luke that he isn't going to turn Luke in for killing his uncle and informs him that as far as he is concerned, the war between the families died along with his uncle. Luke isn't so sure it is over since Helena is back in town and will want to get revenge even if she didn't love Stefan. Nikolas tells Luke that Stefan was never an evil man until he came into the picture and they feuded. He feels that Stefan did everything for him even if was wrong. Luke feels that Stefan was never a good man and deserved what came to him. Helena shows up and disagrees with Nikolas about being naive enough to believe the war between the Cassadines and Spencers is over now. She tells Nikolas that she loves him and that he is the prince and the future. Nikolas rejects her and tells her that he will banish her from existence if he has to. He leaves her alone with Luke.

He asks her where Carly went. She tells him that she doesn't know where she is but that she was upset about him standing her up for dinner. Sonny takes off. He goes off to Alcazar's apartment to see him. Alcazar is there as well as Marcella, a.k.a.

He tells her she did what he wanted her to do. Sonny knocks on the door after the bodyguards search him for weapons. Marcella hides in the other room. Sonny tells Alcazar that he is through with him playing mind games with him and that Faith is working with him and that Alcazar is a gambler like his father and that he has overplayed his hand this time and will pay. Alcazar tells Sonny that Carly met with him because of how he treats her and gloats about it. Sonny leaves. Marcella warns Alcazar that Sonny meant something when he said he overplayed his hand this time and worries that Sonny doesn't buy the scheme anymore. Alcazar tells her not to worry and Sonny will leave his wife and then will realize it when it is too late what he did and by then Carly will be with him. Carly returns home with Jason and they learn from Courtney that Sonny was just there and wondered where she went and then took off himself again. Carly feels that she is again the villain but that it is o.k. for Sonny to abandon his wife and children. Jason asks her if Johnny was with her and took her to the park to meet Alcazar. She tells him he did but to not blame Johnny for allowing her to be alone with Alcazar since he has a soft spot and she took advantage. He doesn't care about that and asks her if Johnny was with her or if he took off. She tells him he left. He goes to take care of business. Sonny returns to the penthouse. Carly comes back from across the hall. He asks her where she went. She is honest with him and tells him that she was with Alcazar. He tells her he already knows that since he just saw Alcazar and he told him. Carly tells him nothing happened and that she just met with him. Sonny doesn't believe her and accuses her of doing something since she has already helped save Alcazar's life.

Carly asks him if he really thinks she would do anything with Alcazar when she is close to 9 months pregnant. Michael comes downstairs and stands in front of Carly and tells Sonny to leave her alone and not to hurt her. Sonny instantly quiets down when he sees the look of fear in Michael's eyes. They sit down with him on the couch. Sonny reassures him that he would never hurt Carly with his hands. Michael asks them what they were fighting about. Carly explains that they got upset with each other and starting yelling but that they love each other. Michael agrees to go up to bed after Sonny tells him how proud he is of him for protecting his mother and that he should always do that. After Michael goes to bed, Carly returns to Sonny and tells him she doesn't ever want to fight like that again while Michael is around. Sonny agrees with her. Carly tells him she loves him but can't take much more of this and agrees to divorce him if he wants one. She goes to leave. Sonny grabs her arm and tells her to wait. Meanwhile, Jason goes to some alley near the warehouse and witnesses one of Alcazar's men hand Johnny, Sonny's bodyguard a package of money, thanking him for doing a good job for him. Jason waits until Alcazar's man leaves, and comes up behind Johnny while he is looking at the money. Jason confronts him about it. Johnny's face whitens when he sees Jason. Jason asks him why he betrayed Sonny and asks him if he was the one who let the woman in to Sonny's place to pretend to be Lily. Johnny gets really nervous and tries to explain that he needed the money because he got in too deep with gambling debts and didnt' know what to do. Jason isn't interested in his excuses and demands to know what he knows about Alcazar's scheme against Sonny.
