Olivia was on the phone with Jax and told him that there hasn't been much progress in the son department. Jax covered when Carly approached and inquired whose son he was talking about. After he hung up with Olivia, Morgan entered the room. Jax advised him on how to behave when Michael returns and what to do when/if he loses control again. Morgan wasn't sure about "snitching" on his brother at his parents' request.

In Mexico, Michael explained to Jason that he needs to figure out his own life and stay there, adding that he's happy they arrived to take Kristina but he's not budging. Jason revealed that Alexis confessed so Michael is not guilty of the crime. He was floored but still didn't want to return to PC. Jason urged him to think of his family. Meanwhile, Kristina admitted to Sam that she forced Claudia off the road that night. Sam explained that she knows the truth and that it was too late when Alexis took the blame. Sam blasted her for not telling the truth and facing the consequences of her actions, adding that lying about it makes it worse. Kristina reasoned that Alexis covered for her because she's just an overbearing mom. Later, Jason entered and Kristina confessed to him. She apologized but didn't get the scolding she expected. Instead, Jason echoed Sam's sentiment about making mistakes and how you deal with facing them.

Back in PC, Alexis and Sonny tried to come up with the right plan of action regarding Kristina's crime. Sonny promised not to let their daughter suffer more than necessary but pointed out that she needs to come clean. Alexis said they must step up and be there for her to help her get through it. Sonny agreed and admitted that he's been an absentee father to Kristina. Alexis noted that Kristina started acting out when Michael woke up. Claudia was stunned as she overheard their conversation unnoticed and angrily went to Johnny to say that they're covering up for Kristina.

Olivia told Dominic that with Sonny's kids coming home, things will go back to normal and there's a chance his cover could be blown so she urged him to get out of town before Jason figures everything out. She threatened to find a way to force her son out of town if he doesn't do it on his own. Dominic begged his mom to trust him and chided her for being so overprotective; she worried that Sonny will kill him if he learns the truth. Dom surmised that Olivia's relationship with Johnny might thwart the plan. They told each other to be careful and parted ways.

Keifer brought cookies over for Molly and told her that he's not a big jerk like Morgan makes him out to be. Alexis came home. Keifer said he knew K was coming home, which is why he stopped by. Then he asked Alexis if he can still see her when she gets back. Keifer turned the tables and said Kristina made a huge mistake when she ran off with Michael, adding that he thinks Michael is dragging her down. Alexis asked Keifer to help support Kristina when she gets back, adding that she needs good influences. Meanwhile, back in Mexico, Kristina wondered why Michael isn't going home even now that he's off the hook and begged him to help her face her parents.

Sonny approached Dominic and summoned Carly and Jax as well to say that he assigned Dominic as Morgan/Michael's guard. They were all stunned and against it. Sonny pleaded his case; Dom was wary. Jax stepped in and surmised that having a guard would make Michael act out even more. Claudia entered and made some veiled comments to Carly about how great it must feel knowing her child is safe inside her and also thanked Carly for pulling her out of the car that night. Later, Carly could sense that Jax was uptight about Dominic and demanded he tell her what's going on. Carly got distracted when the baby kicked and pointed out the awkward moment when Claudia mentioned the baby. "I feel bad for her but that creeped me out," she said. Meanwhile, Johnny went to see Olivia to talk about Dominic and asked what he does for a living. She was thrown and said he's a firefighter.

Sam told Jason Mexico reminds her of Hawaii. She suggested they take a walk or swim until the jet arrives. Jason agreed and they kissed; Kristina and Michael interrupted. On the jet, Jason told the teens that he's keeping mum about Jerry shooting him until after Carly's baby is born.

Sonny told Claudia that they need to talk about Kristina and revealed the truth to her. Claudia tried to stay calm. "We lost our baby because of Kristina," she said. He apologized; she listened as he explained the plan to keep Kristina's actions under wraps and let everyone believe Alexis did it. Claudia brought up her own troubled youth and agreed to move past it.
