- Liz walks into Jake’s with an attitude and asks Coleman to give her the strongest thing he’s got. After moving the hair from her face, she turns to her left and sees Jason with red eyes, looking like he's dealing with a lot of stress.

“They say,” she told him, “the eyes are the windows to the soul.”

“It’s been a rough night,” Jason says as he tosses back another drink. “On top being punched in the face by your husband, I received a letter in the mail addressed to Sam. It was some invitation for her to attend an event for mothers who have lost children. It’s been one hell of a day. Why are you here?”

Liz couldn’t hide her troubles and didn’t even want to: “Lucky’s being an ass so I decided to take a little time for myself. Cam’s with my grandmother and I just needed a night out to think you know?”

“Keep em’ coming Coleman,” Jason says he pats Liz on her shoulder. “It’s gonna be long night.”

- Dillon lies in his bed thinking of well, the person who’s been on his mind for the past few months. Why is he feeling this way about Lucas? He’s not gay….is he? He can’t be. He loves Georgie. He has sex with Georgie. There’s no way he can be gay. But a part of him is very attracted to Lucas. Unfortunately for Dillon he doesn’t have the time to find the answer because Georgie comes into his room and jumps on his bed. Feeling a little abandoned over the past few months, Georgie kisses Dillon and says that she wants to have a romantic night with him. “I am so not in the mood tonight Georgie,” says Dillon as he puts on a shirt.

- Lucky feels as if he’s been pacing for hours when Nikolas shows up at his door. Lucky fills his brother in on what went down at General Hospital. Nikolas asks what happened afterwards and Lucky says that he got into an argument with Liz. Nikolas angers Lucky when he says that Lucky’s jealousy of Jason and Liz’s friendship will end up costing him his marriage.

- While on her way to the MetroCourt, Monica is flooded with pangs of guilt, fear and anticipation. Is she really going through with this? Is she really going to meet this man, this “Dr. Mindbender” tonight for dinner? What would Alan say?

“What would Alan say,” Monica says to herself. “It’s not like I’m doing anything wrong. It’s just dinner and nothing more. Alan’s had plenty of dinner dates in the past. I’m doing nothing wrong.”

Inside she knows she is though. While it’s true Alan has gone on dinner dates, many of them were about business. This is personal. Monica has been having an emotional affair with this man for months now. Though she feels connected to him, she doesn't really know a lot about him and vice versa. She's guarded her business, such as her being married to Alan, but as far as this guy knows, she's separated and filing for divorce.

It’s partly because of him that she fought going to therapy with Alan. There’s a connection between this man and Monica that she can’t explain. She feels drawn to him in a way, the way that she used to be drawn to Alan. It’s weird for her to feel this way, especially since she’s never seen a picture of this man before. But she knows that she feels this way for a reason. Finally Monica pulls into the parking lot. After taking a few minutes to make sure she goes through with it, Monica gives her keys to the valet and proceeds to make her way into the MetroCourt.

- Back at Lucky’s, Nikolas tries to calm Lucky down. Maybe he (Nikolas) shouldn’t have said that his brother was jealous of Jason, but it was true.

“It’s obvious that I am not her priority anymore Nikolas. While she hasn’t come right out and said it, I know that Liz doesn’t want to be with me anymore.”

Unable to hide his anger with his brother anymore, Nikolas lashes out. “Do you know how stupid you sound,” he says as he throws Lucky’s jacket to him. “You need to stop being so damn stubborn and allow her in. You tell her that you wanted her to help you, but you make it about other people instead of about you.”

“I was in pain, she wasn’t –”

“You were in pain, you were hurt, you were going through issues,” interrupts Nikolas mocking Lucky. “So was she Lucky. So was she. Don’t make this about anyone else other than you and Liz. Go to her Lucky, tell her how you feel. Don’t make everything her fault. Accept some responsibility for what has happened between the two of you these past few months and move on….before you lose you wife.”

As General Hospital comes to a close, Lucky takes Nikolas advice and takes off after Liz. Monica prepares to get onto the elevator to meet her online date. Liz kisses Jason on the cheek for being a great friend to her. Liz apologizes but Jason grabs her hand. She looks deeply into his eyes as he looks deeply into hers. It’s unspoken, but the buried feelings that have been coming to the surface more and more finally can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
