Johnny was flattered by Olivia's desire to protect him. After they kissed, Johnny received a text message. He apologized to Olivia because he had to leave. After Johnny left, Olivia made a phone call. She introduced herself as Olivia Falconari, Dante's mother. A short time later, Olivia walked into the laundromat where Ronnie was folding laundry. Ronnie was annoyed because Olivia had called his boss to arrange the meeting. He warned Olivia that she was compromising Dante's undercover assignment. Olivia didn't care; she was determined to have Dante transferred to another case. When Olivia returned home, she found Johnny waiting in the hallway. Johnny apologized because he couldn't stay. He had stopped by to ask Olivia out for a real date. Johnny was tired of meeting at the garage and at her apartment. Olivia was touched by Johnny's desire to take their relationship out of the shadows, so she agreed to go to dinner with him.

At the Jacks residence, Carly was reluctant to agree to Morgan's request to go to the Yankees game with Dominic. While Morgan, Carly, and Dominic discussed it, Jax walked in. Jax apologized for not being able to take Morgan to the game because of a business meeting. Morgan revealed that he had invited Dominic to go with him. Jax wondered how Morgan knew Dominic. Jax bristled when Morgan revealed that Dominic had been the man who held Carly, Morgan, and Michael hostage and then later went to work for Sonny. Jax decided that he could take Morgan to the game, after all. As soon as Morgan left the room, Jax turned his attention to Dominic. He made it clear that he knew what Dominic did for a living. Jax informed Dominic that he wasn't permitted anywhere near Morgan. Jax couldn't stop Sonny from visiting the boys, but he could restrict Dominic's access to them. Carly supported Jax's decision. She instructed Dominic to call them the next time Morgan tried to make plans with him. Dominic understood Jax and Carly's concern.

In an old Mexican church, Jason remained buried beneath the rubble of the collapsed balcony. When Jason finally opened his eyes, it was clear that he was in tremendous pain. Despite the agony of his grave injuries, Jason managed to free himself from the debris enough to sit up. While the gunshot wound in his shoulder bled profusely, Jason drifted in an out of consciousness and delirium. At one point, Jason thought he heard Michael calling out to him. When Jason opened his eyes, Michael was kneeling before him. Jason begged Michael to return home, but Michael refused to go. Jason explained that Michael had not been responsible for Claudia's accident, but the information didn't sway Michael. Michael insisted that he made his own choices. When Jason blinked, Michael was gone. Next Jason saw Kristina. The vision of Kristina suggested that Michael was a prisoner of Jerry Jacks. The next person that Jason saw was Carly. Carly was angry because Jason had not protected Michael. According to Carly, it was Jason's fault that they had lost Michael again. The next time that Jason opened his eyes, he saw Sam. However, Sam was real. Jason pleaded for her to find Michael, but Sam refused to leave Jason's side. As Sam pulled the rubble off of Jason, she assured him that Michael and Kristina had escaped Jerry's clutches.

Michael and Kristina were delighted that they had landed jobs at a popular resort in Mexico. As they worked in a souvenir shop on the beach, the teens talked about Carly and Alexis. Both kids seemed to miss their mothers. A short time later, a young French tourist entered the shop. The girl was close to Michael and Kristina's age. She wanted to rent a WaveRunner for the day. When she saw Michael, the young lady smiled.

Rebecca was smiling as she walked into Nikolas' living room. Unaware of Nikolas' dark mood, she confided that she didn't think Alfred approved of their trip to Greece. According to Rebecca, Alfred had been unable to make eye contact with her. Nikolas was expressionless as he watched Rebecca. With drink in hand, Nikolas slowly walked over to his desk and then took a seat. Rebecca finally realized that Nikolas hadn't spoken a word. Prompted by concern, Rebecca asked him what was wrong.

On the next General Hospital...

• Nikolas confronts Rebecca with her lies.
• Sam comes to Jason's rescue.
• Sonny wants answers from Dominic.
