In the Maarkham Islands, Luke and Robert were out of options as the bounty hunters planned to collect their money. Lulu attempted to get the bounty hunters to release them all by pointing out that they could take Holly’s jewels instead. The goons took the gems, all right, but refused to release the prisoners. As Robert and Luke bickered and assigned blame to one another, Robin screamed for them to shut up. The distraction was all Robert needed to bust his ropes and overtake his captors. He and Luke succeeded in taking the goons down and freed the others, with a little help from Lulu and Dillon. Outside, the gang realized they had no vehicles of transport to escape, that is, until a chopper appeared in the sky. But it wasn’t Luke’s pilot, Waldo. “Then who’d come here to rescue us?” quizzed Robert. Uh, we know!
In Australia, Lady Jane Jacks was surprised to find Carly in her home and exclaimed, “What on earth are you doing here and what have you done with my son?” Carly explained that all the kids were at the beach with Leticia and Jax was on a phone call with brother, Jerry. Jane noted that it was a good time for them to have a talk. That would have to wait, though, because Carly brought John in to meet his grandmother. As Jane doted over the baby, Michael and Morgan entered and caused a ruckus, ruffling Mrs. Jacks feathers — especially when Michael accidentally sprung the a lizard in the room. The lizard, it turns out, was one of an endangered species that Jane had collected to study. Oops!
Just as Sam’s operation was about to begin, Alexis burst into the O.R. with the injunction to halt the proceedings. Jason and Ric followed, and Patrick cancelled the surgery. Elizabeth tried to talk Ric into using Patrick, but he pointed out it wasn’t their call to make. Jason didn’t want to hear Alexis’s rationalizations, while Alexis feared for Sam’s well-being. In the hall, Patrick and Noah argued about Patrick’s true motivations for wanting to perform the surgery. Noah told his son to leave Sam alone. When Jason implored Patrick for help, Dr. Drake, Jr., asked Liz for her help in performing the surgery, despite the injunction. Later, Epiphany came into Sam’s room to take her for a test, while Alexis fretted with Ric about whether or not she made the right decision. Liz told Jason the plan was in action, and reassured him he was making doing the right thing for Sam. Downstairs, Alexis reminded Ric that Kristina had a dance recital. He agreed to take care of it and left. Then, Alexis went in to check on Sam and discovered the ruse. “Where the hell is my daughter?” she demanded to know. Meanwhile, Jason kissed Sam as she went back into the O.R.
Max drooled over Sonny’s Maserati and fantasized about having it for his own. Outside, Sonny pointed out to Emily that in light of Sam’s condition, it’s their duty to live their lives without regret. When it was time for them to go out on their date, Max was crestfallen when Sonny wanted to drive — without him. As Sonny and Emily took off, Max expressed concern about Sonny’s newfound happiness. Sonny and Emily drove to the local make-out spot, where he reiterated how happy he is to be free of the business and be able to have a regular life for a change. Em was shocked when Sonny wanted to have sex in the public place, since he’s normally such a private person.
Back in the Maarkham’s, the rescuer climbed down the helicopter ladder, removed her helmet and revealed herself to be…. Anna Devane! Anna hugged Robin and upon seeing Robert alive and in the flesh, karate-kicked him in the face and called him a bastard…. Carly and Jane rolled the dice to see if Carly would stay or go. Jane planned to do whatever she could to prevent Carly and her son from being together, but when Carly talked back and said that wouldn’t happen, Jane fainted…. Alexis found Jason and was furious, vowing that if Sam died, she’d have him put away for murder.
