Many storylines have been building to their exciting climax and Friday set us up for what is to come...
Jason struggles with the fact that in his mind, Sam turned to John McBain instead of him. She has shared intimate details and secrets that no one else knows. In Sam's mind she justifies her betrayal by insisting that she was trying to spare Jason the awful truth- Franco is his brother and the father of her child.
Will Jason stand by Sam or is this relationship unrepairable?
Elizabeth now knows the truth about Sam being raped by Franco and tried to be a good friend to Jason by listening to his reasons for being so upset with Sam. She is also in the middle of the quest for finding the real killer of Lisa and seems to have realized that Spinelli could be right- Matt could have killed Lisa that night and not remembered doing the deed. Much to Elizabeth's horror she remembered how drunk Matt was that night.
Elizabeth finds Ewen laying on the floor of his office unconscious. Will she figure out that it was Kate who did this to him?
Will Ewen survive this attack?
