Valentine's Day is finally over. Hurrah!

Sonny's ready to go out but Diane drops by. He wants to see Dante but Diane wants to talk about their case. Why, Diane? You know how stubborn he is.

Dante starts to get out of bed. Rayner comes in, thinking Dante's trying to undermine his own recovery to get out of testifying against Sonny.

The Haunted Star Valentine's party that we read about in the crumpled flier was apparently a hit according to Luke although we never got to see it. Tracy drops the bomb: Elizabeth is pregnant.

Speaking of Crazy Gal, she informs Lucky that she feels much better. Outside, Steven tells Nikolas that the room is ready at Shadybrook and asks if he's told Elizabeth yet. Shouldn't he tell her as her doctor and brother? Liz can't wait to get home. I just can't wait for the new credits.

Credits: 6 Days and counting.

Robin and Patrick argue about stupid things. Their Valentine's day didn't go very well.

Liz thinks it's all going to be OK. Lucky remains silent. Outside, Nikolas reassures Steven and himself. He softens the blow by calling her a wonderful mother. Sure. Finally he tells her about Shadybrook.

Traci tells Luke about the church and the hypothermia and the pregnant and the questionable paternity and the suicide attempt. Luke's kinda flabbergasted.

Sonny calls Diane a pain in the ass which she doesn't seem to mind. They bring up the same old arguments, for and against, and it's really all futile because we know who is going to win. And Diane makes great arguments because she's a lawyer but Sonny is so idiotic and stubborn that he can't wrap his mind around it. He thinks everything is going to be all right because the writers will write it that way.

Dante informs Rayner about his new job. Rayner is worried that Dante is going to continue to cover for his father. Dante seems to sincerely believe that it was his fault that he got shot. Rayner warns him one more time about lying on the witness stand as Olivia walks in. Olivia cuts him off threatening a lawsuit. Which? Shut up, Olivia.

Agent Rayner brings up the blackmail and Olivia brings up the lying and really? Pot, meet kettle. She threatens him again. And he informs Olivia that she'll be a witness. He warns her to tell the truth on the stand. Dante tells Rayner to back off Olivia or he'll "develop sentimental amnesia."

Hospital: Lisa's in a good mood. Patrick and Robin are in a pissy mood. They argue some more about stupid things as Lisa listens. Lisa brags that she had a good Valentine's day. Patrick thinks it's because she got laid.

Liz begs Lucky not to make her go and outside the room Nikolas and Steven talk about who should have told Elizabeth. Too late now... Steven thinks it's important that Elizabeth doesn't always see Lucky as her savior. Lucky convinces Elizabeth that committing herself is the best thing. Laura's chair is waiting, Elizabeth.

Lulu visits Dante. She's been working all morning for Kate. She jokes about how she almost killed him yesterday. He tells her about Rayner and court.

Steven talks to Robin about Elizabeth; about the hypothermia and the crazy and the pregnancy and the Shadybrook. Robin gets distracted by...

Lisa and Patrick chatting about some car race that Lisa went to. Patrick thinks Lisa slept with one of the drivers. Robin takes Elizabeth's recent crazy as an excuse to pull Patrick away.

Luke gets a visit from Sonny. Luke: "Kids, huh?" Sonny wants to know how Luke finally connected with Ethan. Luke: "Well I didn't shoot him in the chest, for one thing." HEE! Awesome, Luke. Awesome. He apologizes for his awesome joke. Why? Luke tells Sonny about Liz and the case of the two potential daddies. Sonny: "That's horrible." Really, Sonny? More horrible than shooting your own son in the chest?

Lucky tries to convince Liz to go to Shadybrook but Liz just wants to go home and ignore her kids. Lucky said that rehab worked for him...but Liz reminds him that he's still drinking. He says he's going to a meeting and if it doesn't work, he'll check himself into rehab as well. Liz rightly argues that rehab is different then being in the mental ward. She begs him not to make her go. Nikolas comes in. He too tries to convince her. Lucky says that the boys will be taken care of by him and Audrey. She finally agrees but makes it clear she is just doing it for her kids.

Sonny knows something about being mentally ill. His words. Sonny gives a PSA about bi-polar disorder. The more you know!

Robin comes in with Liz's clothes. Nik and Lucky leave them alone. Robin and Liz discuss Robin's struggle with the crazy last year. She gives Liz a little pep talk.

Lulu is on the phone with Maxie convincing her to cover a little while longer. Dante tells Lulu that he knows she has a life and doesn't expect her to be with him 24/7. Lulu likes caring and worrying about him. They make out and are interrupted by Michael. He says he's glad that Dante's ok and isn't just saying that because he wants a favor. Except he does.

Lulu, who by the way looks great in a silky cheetah-skin like dress, excuses herself but Michael says she can stay since Dante doesn't keep secrets from her and she knew he was undercover trying to bring Sonny down for months. Michael: "I thought you liked my dad". Lulu slyly avoids the question/accusation telling Michael that it must be hard for him. Michael defends Sonny that he makes mistakes and sometimes does the wrong things but for the right reasons. Geez, this kid is brainwashed. He tells Dante he's made mistakes as well. He talks about the night Claudia was murdered which makes Dante a bit suspicious. After Michael leaves, Dante tells Lulu about Michael confessing.

Olivia is at Sonny's meeting with Diane. She just wants Olivia to just tell the truth. Olivia says she will but then gives a fake version of the truth. Diane thinks her story is ridiculous. Sonny comes in and wonders what Olivia is doing there. Diane frustratedly leaves. Olivia wants to leave too but Sonny stops her. He needs help. ...with their son.

At the Drake/Scorpio household, Robin apologizes for being snarky. Patrick, too apologizes which leads them to the bedroom.

Steven escorts Liz to her room at Shadybrook. It looks remarkably like Laura's room complete with rocking chair. Steven encourages her that it's the right thing. She's convinced that her baby is Nikolas'.

Haunted Star office. Lucky visit's his dad. They talk about Elizabeth. He feels guilty about the nasty things he's said to Elizabeth. He wants to know why he still cares about her.

Sonny tries to guilt Olivia about keeping the secret but Olivia says she'd do it again. She doesn't want to intercede between Sonny and Dante.

Morgan visits Dante. Morgan is upset that his mom and Jax are splitting up. He's also upset about his dad going to jail. He wants Dante to help stop him Sonny from going to prison.

Luke tells Lucky to take things one day at a time and to not worry about what do to about Elizabeth until after she gets well.

Liz talks to her unborn child. Helena comes in and congratulates her for being a slut! Helena thinks it's great that she committed herself to Shadybrook and that she's carrying the Cassadine heir.
