Jason is at the police station with Diane. He wants to see Sonny but Diane tells him that no one is allowed to see Sonny. She says they're waiting see if Dante lives or dies to know what to charge Sonny with. Jason looks to see a prostitute being taken in by a cop into the PCPD. The prostitute is Sam. [sic] Jason's eyes are all: You've got some 'splaining to do!

Jax house: MIchael tells Jax that he wants to go to the PCPD to tell them he killed Claudia.

Hospital chapel: Carly is being uncharacteristically nice to Olivia, especially after what she found out. She explains that she knows everything and empathizes with what she's going through. Maybe Carly is growing? Gosh.

Post-Surgery. I guess Dante didn't die: Lulu is at Dante's bedside egregiously comparing their situation to the opera they saw on their first date. She optimistically plans their next date. She notices that Luke has appeared at the door and goes to hug him. Aww, Lulu needs her daddy.

Credits.

Patrick is looking over Dante's chart when Robin walks over. She's still mad at him for keeping Dante's secret. Lisa is looking for Dante's chart. Patrick compliments her on a job well done but she says Steven was the one who should take the credit. His ears ringing, Steven walks over and asks Lisa if there are any improvements. Patrick compliments him as well as if he's shocked that the chief of surgery could save a life.

Luke tells Lulu he heard all the recent news from Nikolas. The only thing he didn't find out is that Dante is an undercover cop which Lulu gladly tells him. Luke is befuddled by all the self-delusion; that Dante thought he could bring the Corinthos organization down and that Sonny could think he could shoot a cop and get away with it. Lulu can't believe that Sonny could shoot his own son. He didn't know, Lulu. Otherwise killing is perfectly OK.

Olivia brings up what happened to Michael. She says that Michael's situation confirmed that hiding the secret was the right thing to do. Carly defends Sonny that he didn't have a choice when he was younger. Olivia rightly insists that everyone has a choice. They agree to disagree. Carly wonders why she didn't tell Dante when he was assigned to the case. Because then there wouldn't have been a year of drama!

Michael is seriously considering going to the police; even asking for a lawyer. Jax thinks it's too late for Michael to confess, especially since Sonny destroyed the evidence. He also knows that Sonny would never let him.

Sam, who is calling herself "Taffee Ryan", is sitting in a ridiculous outfit. She charms the poor gullible police officer in a fake southern accent. She's actually kind of funny as she slyly gets the information on Sonny from the cop who is trying to impress her. She really only finds out that the evidence against Sonny is strong.

Diane tries to get info out of Jason but he can only look at Sam. Diane finally realizes it's Sam and then pounces on Jason to let her know if they're up to something.

Jason has no idea why Sam is there. Diane thinks Sam may have been brought in having been mistaken for a prostitute while undercover on one of her PI assignments. She offers to help but Jason wants to talk about the case. He thinks the biggest problem Sonny has is the gun he was arrested with. Diane thinks Sonny has lots of problems. That's an understatement. She thinks that she can prove reasonable doubt with Claudia's murder but thinks the Dante part of things is going to be difficult.

Sam fishes some more. She "accidently" spills coffee on the officer's desk who goes off to get another form leaving a plastic bag with a gun alone. Really? First of all, who left the gun on some random officer's desk? I hope he gets fired. Sam puts the gun in her hooker boot. Renier arrives on the scene but it's unclear yet if he knows what's going on. Diane looks worried whereas Jason just looks constipated. Diane is pissed that Sam is interfering with a federal case.

Olivia, lighting a candle for Dante, asks Carly what she would have done differently. Carly says she did the same thing with Michael and AJ. They both agree they tell the truth as a last resort. They also agree that they like each other...and Dominic. And then they make out.

Evidently Luke didn't know that Dante was Sonny's son either. So...what exactly did Nikolas tell him? They recap everything that happened from when Dante was conceived until now. Lulu finally makes sense saying that Sonny's paternity shouldn't have been the only reason not to shoot Dante. Luke thinks it's just business.

Agent Rayner (I've totally spelled his name wrong for the past few reacps) wants to know why a "perp" is walking around the the police station unsupervised. Before Sam can turn around, Jason runs out to distract him. He asks Rayner when he can see Sonny. Rayner threatens to arrest him too but Diane throws out some legal jargon. Office Gullible comes back and apologizes but Rayner isn't hearing it. Apparently Sam got arrested for "loitering". Rayner tells him to not waste valuable resources and cut her loose with a summons. Do people really get arrested for loitering? I guess that was Sam's ingenious plan. He let's her go. Diane wants to know where the warrant is that was issued to arrest Sonny.

Davis house: Molly lets Michael and Morgan in. Kristina informs Michael that she already knows their dad was arrested. What she didn't know was Dante's real identity. Kristina can't believe it. She thinks it's sick that Sonny has killed/hurt two members of his family.

Now Tracy and Ethan get the news from Luke. Can't they just send an e-mail?

Carly brings food for Lulu. They agree that Dante is strong. Lulu praises Dante while slamming Sonny. Carly remains uncharacteristically quiet about the latter. She feels guilty that she pushed him away all that time. Carly thinks she needs to give Dante a reason to live.

I'm excited for Modern Family tonight. Great show y'all! Gotta watch it!

Carly defends Sonny (there it is!) and Lulu gets angry. Carly thinks Lulu needs to use that anger for Dante and talk to him. Lulu says that Dante can't hear him but Carly thinks one of the reasons Michael woke up (after a year) is because they spoke to him. She gives her some more inspirational talk.

Tracy thinks the last thing Lulu needs is to be involved with a Corinthos kid. Ethan just wants to know what he can do to be a loving brother since he's new to all this. Luke tells him to just be there. Ethan leaves. Luke thinks Sonny's going to go to jail. Tracy is surprised that Luke is sad about that. Luke says that Sonny has been a friend. He adds that he doesn't see anything positive coming out of Lulu dating Dante.

Robin wants to know what's up with Dante. Steven says he's stable. Robin thinks that's good news and she compliments Steven for a job well done. He walks away, taking the compliment in stride. Robin and Patrick argue about some other case. Robin is still pissed about the secret Patrick kept.

Kristina and Michael fight on the side of Dante and Sonny respectively. Morgan and Molly side with Kristina. Sometimes this show learns a new phrase, be it medical, legal or otherwise, and then constantly repeat it over and over again. In this case, our new phrase of the month is a legal one: "Murder with special circumstances." It's uttered for like fourth time this episode; this time by Molly.

Patrick insists that it wasn't his secret to tell. He also compares that Robin didn't tell him about Liz and Nik's affair. She justifies that it's two different things. She says that when she found out about AJ, she told. Patrick snarks that that didn't help anyone. Robin storms off. ...which gives Patrick a perfect excuse to ask Lisa to go get a beer. Lisa is happy!

Luke thinks it's ironic that Lulu fell in love with an undercover cop that turned out to be the son of a mobster. Yes, Luke - it's like two thousand spoons when all you need is a knife. Tracy wants to know how long Lulu has known. He thinks it had to be at least several months. They wonder if Dante really loves Lulu since according to Luke, being an undercover cop is being a liar by nature.

Jax is at the hospital chapel when Olivia walks in. He's praying for Dante. He's also praying that Carly will forgive him. Olivia wants to know what Jax thinks the outcome of all of this will be. Jax thinks that Dante will most likely press charges against Sonny if he makes it through. But Sonny has the General Hospital Powers That Be to protect him.

Lulu orders Dante to live as Carly instructed her before. She goes on and on about how he's the love of her life. She's interrupted by Ethan. Ethan encourages and comforts her. Dante wakes and is happy to see Lulu.

jax home. Jason comes by and tells Carly that Spinelli is working on the Franco DVD. He says Diane is trying to get Sonny released on bail and asks her to talk Sonny into leaving the country.

The kids are still arguing about Sonny. It gets heated until Michael confesses that he killed Claudia.

Olivia doesn't know what to say to Dante when he wakes up.

Lulu tells Ethan to find a doctor. Dante likes that Lulu is using his real name. She tells Dante that he flat-lined on the table. He thinks that Sonny being his father was just a dream.
