Coping

Jason struggled to digest the "truth" that Sam told him. He asked her why she held onto these secrets and lived alone with them, unknowing that she had shared the truth with John McBain.

Spinelli and Matt continued their investigation into Lisa's murder hoping to find the real killer. Spinelli decided that perhaps Patrick was responsible and Matt forbid him from questioning Patrick.

Epiphany tracked down Patrick, who missed his shift at the hospital. She found him at home, watching home movies of Robin and drinking. She told him that he cannot live like this and warned him that he needs to pull himself together.

Sonny confronted Michael about lying to him about Starr. He asked Michael if he doubted his innocence and Michael said no. He then invited Michael to his birthday party that Kate is throwing for him.

Starr spoke to Johnny about getting justice for Cole and Hope. Johnny told Starr about Sonny's history and told her that there was not the one who shot out the tires on Anthony's car.

Johnny then shocked Starr when he bought out her recording contract from a sleazy promoter. Starr wondered what she was getting herself into. Johnny told her that he wanted to do something for her but it was also a good business move for him.

Anna convinced John to go home and tell his family about what he is really doing in Port Charles. She made him see that not telling Natalie about his true mission is keeping secrets. Anna promised him that she would keep an eye on Sonny and if there was anything new she would call him.

Now that Jason knows the truth, will he and Sam be able to move forward and accept that their baby is really Franco and Sam's?

Will Spinelli and Matt be able to save Maxie from herself?

Will Patrick be able to find a way to move on from losing Robin?

What does Kate/Connie have planned for Sonny's big birthday bash?

What does Johnny want from Starr? Will Michael protect her?

What will Anna find out about the accident that killed Starr's family? Will she be able to talk John out of his vendetta against Sonny?
