Elsewhere in the hospital, Ethan stood by as Nikolas urged Rebecca to go home with him. Ethan tried to warn Rebecca about Nikolas' revenge plot against her, but she did not believe him. Nikolas smirked in the background. Rebecca was tempted to go with Nikolas, but told him she did not want to be away from Edward in case he woke up and needed her. After she left, Ethan wanted to know if Nikolas was merely plotting payback or if he intended total annihilation against Rebecca. Nikolas smiled as he told Ethan that Rebecca was a good actress, because portraying grace and compassion, as she did with Edward, was her best act.
Spinelli was at Johnny's side in Mercy Hospital where he had been transported because the emergency room at GH had all it could handle with the carnival accident. Johnny was in dire shape after suffering several gunshot wounds. He begged Spinelli to protect Olivia from Claudia, and Spinelli agreed. He was about to share more information about Claudia, but passed out and was taken to surgery before he could. Bernie went to Sonny's to tell him about the attack on the warehouses by Anthony's forces, but found Claudia instead. He told her about the attack and Johnny's shooting. Claudia was enraged. Ronnie, Dante's friend and superior officer, was talking with Dante about how Dante's heroism had endeared him to Sonny and put him in a position to bring down the mob, but Jason walked in. Dante quickly reverted to his Dominic persona and introduced Ronnie as a friend who had worked for the Zacchara organization. When Ronnie left them alone, Jason told Dominic how grateful he was that Dominic had risked his life to save Morgan's. Jason offered his hand and said that Dominic could call on Jason for anything.
Claudia caught up to Spinelli at Mercy. When she learned that Johnny was in surgery and not expected to recover, she slapped Spinelli and told him that if Johnny died, the entire town would feel her pain. Olivia visited Dante and gave him the good news. She told him to rest and try to stop being a cop for one night. He told her that she had been right, that in some ways he wished he could resign from his job, because the more he got to know Sonny and his family, the more he liked them. When Olivia asked him what he would do, he remained firm that he would do his job and take the mob down. Even though he liked them, he said that they were still criminals who must be brought to justice.
Jason caught up to Spinelli and got the whole story of what had happened when Spinelli had attempted to deliver papers to Johnny at the warehouse. He told how Johnny had saved his life and taken several bullets in the process. Spinelli also told Jason that he and Johnny had heard the four thugs say that they were acting on Anthony's orders. Spinelli also told Jason that Johnny had asked him to protect Olivia from Claudia, but had been taken to surgery before he could elucidate further. Jason told Spinelli that he was never to take another assignment. When Spinelli tried to protest, Jason said that Spinelli was his friend, and he thought of him like a brother. Spinelli was touched and agreed to stay out of harm's way in the future. Jason and Spinelli were still at Mercy when Johnny returned from surgery, which had gone well. Both were delighted that Johnny was expected to make a full recovery. Claudia visited Anthony in prison and told him that Johnny was in surgery, not expected to live. Anthony was devastated. Claudia told him that the only reason she was there was to see his face when he found out that he had ordered the death of his son. Then she told him that if Johnny died, she would take revenge on him, and he would pray for the mercy of death.
On the next General Hospital...
