Here’s everything that happened.
Loose Lips
Hudson lingered while Josslyn went over paperwork for Jasper Jacks Enterprises at the Quartermaine boathouse. When Brook Lynn and Chase arrived with Phoebe and Josslyn congratulated the couple on finalizing the baby’s adoption, Hudson’s curiosity pinged.

Hudson and Josslyn brought their work up to the garage apartment, where he asked Josslyn about Phoebe’s adoption. As he learned the story of Phoebe’s birth — and that Phoebe’s “father” had consented to a closed adoption — Hudson grew suspicious. Josslyn ordered him to return to Australia until she named a CEO, but he adamantly insisted that he needed to stay in town until she found a candidate.
Family First
Back at the boathouse, Chase asked Brook Lynn how she was feeling about Willow moving back into the gatehouse. Chase also shared that he realized that he’d gone too far in defending Willow during the attempted murder trial. Brook Lynn admitted that she was uncomfortable with Willow living on the property, but the couple ultimately agreed that Willow wasn’t a threat to their marriage because Phoebe had put their relationship into perspective.

Remote Possibility
Anna stopped by to see Sonny. After they discussed his decision to take his coffee business legitimate, Anna opened up about her mental breakdown, a struggle that Sonny was able to relate to. Claiming that her time in the French clinic had made her claustrophobic, Anna asked Sonny to sell her a parcel of his mountaintop land where she could build a private retreat.
Sonny suggested Anna seek therapy, but she was non-committal when he offered to get her a referral from his psychiatrist. Before leaving, Anna again asked about the land. Sonny told her to get in touch with Diane, and she was adamant that her transaction remain a secret and stay between them. Once she got outside, Peter appeared and told Anna she didn’t need to see a shrink — because she had him.

Couple Goals
At the park for softball, Jason (clad in an ELQ uniform) informed Britt that he was no longer working for Sonny nor was he a partner in Corinthos Coffee. Britt understood Jason’s desire to distance himself from the dangerous lifestyle for Danny’s sake but wondered if Jason would truly be able to walk away.
The couple also chatted about Cassius, and Britt revealed that because her mother was so devastated by Cassius’ death, Britt had asked to get information about her brother’s death. Jason apologized for not being around to help her with Cullum, but she was grateful that Jason had saved Rocco.
Now that she and Rocco were safe and he had a chance to make things up to Danny, Jason was determined to do better moving forward. After Britt shared that she was confident he could make the change, Jason said he’d do anything for the people he loved and kissed her.

Home Sweet Home
Before agreeing to sign the lease on the apartment at Marina Towers, Joe asked Lucy for clarification on her statement about Willow being on Route 91 the night of Curtis and Jordan’s accident. Although rattled, Lucy covered by claiming that Drew likely contradicted himself on the witness stand so Curtis would owe him a favor. Joe then electronically signed the lease, but it wouldn’t process through Lucy’s tablet. She guaranteed him she’d take care of it back at the office and left, while Joe stayed behind to take some measurements.
Across town, Lucas broke the news to Ava over lunch at the pool that he was moving into a new apartment that Elizabeth helped him find. Ava was concerned that her nephew was going out on his own too soon after losing Marco, but Lucas was insistent that he needed to move forward. Since he already had the keys, Lucas brought Ava over to see his new place, which she offered to help decorate. When Ava got sad that Lucas was truly moving out, he quipped that he’d only be across town, prompting her reply that she was done with men ghosting her. Ava shared that Ethan had left town to protect someone, and she hoped the sacrifice would be enough.

Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing?
Trina and Gio met up at the Surf Lodge to discuss their music before a meeting with Simon. Trina confided that she’d been distracted lately because of her father’s upcoming prison sentence, which inspired her to write a song about regret. She was surprised when Emma arrived with Quinn after the pair had volunteered at the animal shelter together.
As he waited for his takeout order, Quinn questioned Trina about her change from art to music and learned that she and Gio had a gig coming up in a few weeks. After Quinn left, Trina commented to her friends that her first impression of Kai’s former teammate had been wrong. But as she and Gio shared photos of their cute baby siblings, a stalker watched Trina from outside the café…
