• On Spoon Island, Nadine helps Nikolas assemble a train set for Spencer. Lulu makes another awkward attempt to convince Sonny that Johnny had nothing to do with Michael's shooting.

• Frantically insisting that her son is already getting better, Carly threatens to have Patrick removed from Michael's case unless the doctor immediately adjusts his negative attitude.

Alexis and Diane meet for drinks at Jake's, where the acting D.A. admits how upset she is about recent events and how angry she is at herself for ever sleeping with Sonny in the first place. Tracy warns Luke that allowing Johnny Zacchara anywhere near Lulu is tantamount to inviting another tragedy into his life.
