At General Hospital, Maxie saw Matt talking to Elizabeth and told Spinelli to do something to make Matt jealous. Spinelli immediately gave Maxie a long deep kiss, which Matt did not observe, but Spinelli let Maxie think that Matt had seen. When Matt approached them, Maxie pretended that she had spent the previous evening at a romantic movie with Spinelli. Matt told Maxie that the patient he had intended to see the previous evening had cancelled the appointment and he had taken Elizabeth to dinner at an Italian restaurant instead.

Maxie asked to speak to Matt alone. After Spinelli engaged Elizabeth in conversation, Maxie demanded to know why Matt had not called her after his patient had cancelled. He told her that if he had called, Maxie would not have had time to play games with Spinelli. On the other side of the room, Elizabeth cautioned Spinelli that Maxie was using him. Spinelli defended Maxie and Elizabeth wondered if Maxie understood that Spinelli truly accepted Maxie for who she was. Spinelli said Elizabeth had to be aware of Matt's interest in her and asked what Elizabeth wanted.

Elizabeth said that she and Matt were just friends, but that she did not want Maxie to hurt Matt either. Spinelli said there were worse outcomes than having Maxie fall in love with a person. Spinelli said that he had another mystery to unravel and showed Elizabeth a picture of Cassandra. Spinelli told Elizabeth that Cassandra lived at Windemere with Ewen. When Elizabeth showed surprise, Spinelli hastened to tell her that it was a doctor-patient relationship and Ewen was known for his unconventional methods of treatment.

Spinelli asked Elizabeth if she had made any further progress in finding out who had rescued and revived her after Lisa Niles had tossed her off the boat and into the ocean. Elizabeth said that she had not and that it made no sense that someone had not claimed responsibility for her rescue. Spinelli said that maybe the rescuer could not afford to be seen or have it known that he was on Spoon Island.

Meanwhile, Maxie told Matt that she was sorry that his patient had cancelled. Matt said that the patient would reschedule. Maxie asked if they could reschedule. She said that she liked antipasto. Matt said he was not sure if the restaurant where he had taken Elizabeth was right for Maxie. Maxie was upset that it was okay for Elizabeth, but not for her. Matt told Maxie that it had only been one dinner. He went on to say that if things were going to work out between him and Maxie they had to stop playing games and be honest with each other and keep everything above board. Maxie agreed. As he walked toward the elevator, Matt told Maxie that the first thing he wanted to know way why she was such a good friend with Anthony Zacchara.

Kate returned to the Chicago hotel room where she had left Sonny sleeping. She was startled when Sonny greeted her. She said that she had been unable to sleep and had gone down to the bar to have a drink and get some work done. Kate said that she was sorry if she had worried Sonny. Sonny said that he was glad that he knew everything and she should not be ashamed that she was having therapy. He told Kate that she could tell him anything. Kate made a joke and said that they would soon be the couple that left the bathroom door open. Sonny jokingly replied that they could have a threesome between him, Kate and Connie. Kate got upset. Sonny said that she should take it easy because he was just joking.

Kate said that it was not funny because she woke up every day wondering who she was. Sonny said that she was the woman standing in front of him and that was the woman he wanted. Sonny said that he did not know why Kate was so defensive. He said that he knew that they had a lot of walls to break down. He wanted to know if Kate was willing to try. She said that she was.

Kate changed the subject and showed Sonny the invitations and plans for a benefit they were planning for the 20th of February when Sonny would make the charter donation to a new hospital wing in Dante's name, despite Dante's earlier rejection of Sonny's attempt to donate the money in Dante's name. Kate was momentarily distracted when she found a napkin with the name "Marc" and a phone number written on it. She hastily put it away and pretended that it was related to her magazine, "Crimson."

Sonny did not notice Kate's anxiety as he wondered if both Alexis and Carly should be invited to the function. Kate said it would be okay because Sonny was making the gesture for his children. He said he hoped that Dante would eventually see Sonny for the man he was and could separate that from what Sonny did. Sonny said that he wanted Dante to see the real him. Kate said that eventually Dante would.

Sonny started kissing Kate, but she stopped him and said that they had to get home immediately because both had businesses they needed to attend. Kate started packing. Sonny stopped her and said that they had the room and should take advantage of their time. He said that they could pretend that they had met in the bar and did not know each other. Kate accused Sonny of treating her like a sleazy pick up. Sonny wanted to know why she was so touchy. Kate said she did not know what had gotten into her. She said that she really could pretend a make-believe story.

They started kissing, but Kate stopped Sonny and said that she could not stop thinking about work. She said she had to get home so that she could get all the plans for the benefit in place by the 20th. Sonny said he would get dressed while Kate called the airlines. Kate looked at the napkin again. When Sonny emerged from the bathroom fully dressed, he apologized for jumping to the wrong conclusions and told Kate that he was not trying to change her. He said that all his talk about pretending was just an effort to let off some steam like they had done as kids. He said it was nice to have Connie emerge every once in a while. As they were about to leave the room, Kate said she had left her earrings behind. She sent Sonny to the lobby and she went to the bathroom. Kate looked at the napkin with the name and phone number on it, then tossed it in the trash and followed Sonny to the hotel lobby.

On the Haunted Star Ethan called Luke and left a message asking him to call back. Ewen showed up and wanted to know if Cassandra was there. Ethan said that he had just escorted Cassandra back to Windemere. Ewen warned Ethan that Cassandra had a dark side that Ethan had not seen. Ethan said that it sounded like Ewen was afraid of Cassandra and wondered why Ewen followed Cassandra around. Ewen said that Cassandra had a way of making him do things. Ethan asked why Ewen did not lock Cassandra up if she was dangerous. Ewen said that he had no knowledge that Cassandra had ever harmed herself or anyone else.

Ethan was puzzling about the letters "IC" that Cassandra wrote everywhere. Ewen said that they could mean anything, but Ethan suspected that they were initials and given Cassandra's fascination with Windemere, the first thought that sprang to mind was "Cassadine." Ethan said that it was probably not a coincidence that she was so attracted to Spoon Island and Windemere. Ewen said that there was a purity about Cassandra as if she had been kept from the world. Ethan said that she had been kept in the dark. Ewen said that Cassandra did not want to be dragged into the harsh light of reality and told Ethan to do Cassandra a favor and leave her where she was.

After Ewen was gone, Ethan took out a napkin on which Cassandra had written "No one." He crossed out the "No," and wrote "Some." Then, out loud he asked, "Who?"

At Windemere, Helena and Cassandra acknowledged that they had a history together. Cassandra accused Helena of turning her into an assassin. Helena told Cassandra that her disrespect was getting tiresome. Cassandra accused Helena of locking her away and keeping her away from other people. Helena said that she did not want anyone to know that Cassandra existed because Cassandra was being held in reserve until the time was right for Cassandra to act. Helena said that there were penalties to be exacted for the loss of her children. Cassandra said that it was supposed to be Lucky, but he was gone. Helena said that there were others.

Helena wanted to know why Cassandra had slashed Laura's portrait. Cassandra said that she would have rather slashed the real thing. Helena called Laura insipid and wondered why Laura had exerted such influence on Helena's sons. Cassandra said that it was called, "love." Helena snorted and said that love could make the smartest man stupid and the strongest man weak and that was when she and Cassandra would move in. Cassandra said that she had met Luke and that he was interesting. Cassandra said that Luke was smart and might figure things out.

Helena said that by the time he did it would be too late. Helena told Cassandra that she was there to play a part and if she needed sympathy she should talk to her psychiatrist. Helena told Cassandra that she was there for one purpose and that was to take revenge on the gutter dwelling peasants who had destroyed Helena's son. When Cassandra accused Helena of being melodramatic, Helena grabbed Cassandra and held a knife to her throat. She told Cassandra that the game was young and Cassandra's death was still an option. Cassandra said that death did not frighten her as much as it did Helena who feared dying before she could pass on the Cassadine legacy.

Cassandra reminded Helena that it had been Helena's idea to set the stage. Cassandra said that if the plan was going to work it had to be gradual. Helena said that Cassandra was stalling. Cassandra said that she was being smart so that the mouse was not lost before the trap was sprung. Helena noticed a pad that had "No One," written on it. Cassandra said that it was a game she played with Ethan. Helena warned Cassandra not to fall for Ethan because he was a Spencer. Cassandra said that Ethan was a good person. Helena said that she doubted that Ethan would feel kindly to Cassandra when he learned that he had been a pawn in Cassandra's game.

Helena told Cassandra that she would be waiting and watching. She ordered Cassandra to focus and to play Ethan for all he was worth and to lead him into the trap he so richly deserved. When Helena left the room through the secret passage, Cassandra screamed, threw a glass against a wall and burst into tears.

Kelly went to the penthouse to give Sam and Jason the results of the paternity test. They were relieved to find out that Jason, not Franco, was the father of Sam's baby. Kelly told them that the baby was healthy and she could even tell them the gender if they wanted to know. Sam said she was content just knowing that the child was Jason's. After Kelly was gone, both Sam and Jason were smiling and happier than they had been since before Franco had intervened on their honeymoon. Jason told Sam that she never had to think about that horrible night again. He said that he was glad to see her smile again. Sam said that she was glad that she could smile again.

Sam thought that they ought to be reading or doing something to prepare to be parents. Jason said he just wanted to sit and hold her. Sam said it was amazing to thing that in time they would be sitting on their terrace staring at the stars and knowing that a whole world of possibilities was staring back at them. Jason held her close and smiled.

Epiphany handed Elizabeth a file when Ewen got off the elevator. He was buttoning up his shirt as Epiphany told him that there was a jumper in room 1015 that needed transport to Shadybrook and there was a reason for turtlenecks. Elizabeth asked Ewen to accompany her to the art show he had mentioned to her earlier and he agreed. Ewen told Elizabeth that the show was waterscapes that seemed as if the hands of the sea were cradling the viewer. As he walked away, Elizabeth had a flashback to her rescue on Spoon Island.
