Fluke arrives at the party, and apologizes for being late – he tells Lulu he ran into Dante at the Elm Street house, he isn’t going to make the party! Lulu asks if anything happened at the house? He claims Dante isn’t coming because of his feelings about Johnny, and there was no point telling Lulu himself.

Brad and Lucas arrive at the party with Bobbie, they tell her Sam and Patrick are at the police to report the stolen phoenix.
Jake at the station
At the PCPD, Carly tells Sam and Patrick she filed a report about Jake Doe and apologizes to Sam – Jake was the gunman who held her hostage and shot Nathan. She fills them in on the duffel bag – the gun was a match, and Nathan is at the Haunted Star to arrest him. Sam is distraught, but Carly says it’s not that simple.. when Jake arrives in cuffs!
Carly confronts Jake – he claims he met with Kevin Collins, and he isn’t the gunman who took Sam hostage. He repeats the claim that Sam planted thoughts in his head, but Carly tells him he never saw Dr Collins. What he remembered didn’t actually happen! He flashes back to seeing Helena.. tells them someone else was there! A cop tells Nathan the prison van was hijacked by four prisoners.
In the Elm Street basement, Dante is unconscious.. and starts to stir. He grabs the crowbar while his phone rings.. he sees someone in a chair.. and staggers to his feet.

The Prison Gang are en route to Port Charles, Ava wonder why Franco is with them! She hears all about Nina at Shadybrook, he needs to save her from Heather. Ava hopes Heather draws and quarters Nina real slow.. as long as it took her to drug her and steal her baby. Franco reminds her she is no saint herself! He calls her a poisonous bitch who deserves everything coming to her. Ava says it will be karma for both of then, but Franco insists Nina is blameless. Sonny tells both of them to shut up – he didn’t send the guard to kill Ava, Julian tells them it was Bill Eckert. They have to warn Lucas and Michael.. Sonny asks Julian to call Lucas, who makes the call!
