A manic Carly, sporting a shiner, burst into Sonny’s place with a picnic basket and suggested (Well, kinda demanded) they take Morgan and Michael out to the park. She flipped when Sonny suggested she see a therapist. Michael walked in and asked why his parents were fighting. Carly started chattering about how exciting it would be to go to the park. After asking why his mom was so worked up, he declined. When the boy left, Carly accused Sonny of turning their son against her and stormed off.
Jax and Emily commiserated over their marital woes during the flight back to Port Charles. He announced that he was divorcing Courtney. Em was surprised that he was willing to give up on his marriage just like that. He advised her to dump Nikolas. Back in the Bahamas, Nikolas pointed out to Courtney that their marriages were in rubble and pulled her into a long kiss; they ended up making out on the bed. Court pulled back and they both agreed they loved their spouses too much to cross the line.
At G.H., Alcazar asked Skye to take over as head of the Charitable Endowment. Skye said she wouldn’t take the position if he was just offering it to hurt Carly, but Lorenzo talked her into it. Carly, who had already changed her outfit, arrived and was furious to discover that her estranged hubby had fired her. She started crying and screaming and carrying on…. Ric and Reese were also at the hospital and he was glad to hear she was sticking around Port Charles. She acknowledged that she was going to fight for Sonny…. Later, Sonny met with Ric and asked his brother to represent him, but only if he dropped his partnership with Reese. Ric turned the offer down and Sonny played the guilt card by bringing up all of his sib’s misdeeds. Ric told Sonny he was an idiot for ditching Reese and walked out.
Em turned up at the hospital (Wow, she got through the baggage carousel fast!) and told Elizabeth, she was tired of talking about her rape and having it impact her life. Liz tried to make Em feel better by saying Nik turned to another woman for comfort, not sex. Jax barged in on Lucky to rant about Nikolas. He was all “your brother this” and “your brother that”. Elizabeth arrived and pointed out that Jax was jumping to conclusions by assuming his wife cheated on him. Jax continued to insist Courtney had slept with Nik, prompting Liz to wonder what this meant for her unborn baby. Jax said he’d raise the child alone, and Liz balked… Emily visited Sonny and recounted her problems. Sonny wanted to know who the other woman was and furrowed his brow in an uh-oh way when he realized that Courtney was involved. Corinthos assured Em that the matter was in his hands now.
In the Bahamas, Nik, now with a shirt on, told a packing Courtney, he didn’t regret anything, but would fight to get Emily back. Not so fast, their plane was delayed.
Andrew implored Alicia, really Sam, to defy Allegra and marry him that night. She agreed. Meanwhile, Jason, in a violent rage, demanded that Allegra reveal Sam’s whereabouts. Once she complied, he started to run out, but got all tremor-y and collapsed. Meanwhile, “Alicia” and Andrew exchanged vows. She said she couldn’t go through with it, but he urged her on and a teary “Alicia” visualized Jason’s face, completed her vows and they were pronounced married. Then, the dancing began, just as you knew it would. Twirl around the fountain. Everybody twirl. Slow dip. More twirling. And it was over. But then Andrew had to make it all uncomfortable by bringing up how much he wanted to make love to his wife. In the meantime, Jason awoke in handcuffs and Allegra filled him in on the wedding. She released Jason, who stumbled about in a groggy fashion. In the meantime, Andrew led “Alicia” to the bed and promised to take her to paradise. She said she had to call her mother.
