At the hospital, Alexis was on the phone with Adrian. She warned him that if he printed one more word about Kristina, he would have to answer to her.
Jordan found T.J. at the hospital, and she wanted to check in, as she felt like something was bothering him. T.J. told her about his and Molly’s recent problems with Kristina regarding the baby, and he remarked that he could feel himself and Molly pulling in opposite directions because of it. Jordan wondered if it was time to talk to a lawyer, but T.J. didn’t want the child’s life to start with a custody battle. Jordan promised that if things ended up in court, she would fight right alongside T.J. and Molly.
Later, Jordan was gone, and Alexis found T.J. She assured him that she loved him and that he was an important part of their family. She hoped that T.J. would give things time and keep the peace, but he wondered if that also applied to Kristina. He demanded to know what would happen if she tried to keep the baby.
Sam and Molly met up at the Port Charles Surf Lodge to catch up. Molly told Sam all about what had happened with Kristina, their fight over the termination papers, and Molly’s subsequent apology. Sam commended Molly for being the bigger person. Molly continued with Ava’s subpoena, and she remarked that it had felt good being on the same side as Kristina again. Molly said that she felt more hopeful, and she thought that everything would work out.

At the Metro Court pool, Brook Lynn told Lois all about the record label. She talked about how grateful she was to Sonny, and how great of an opportunity it was. Lois was concerned about Sonny’s involvement, but Brook Lynn assured her that he was only involved financially. Blaze arrived, so Lois left so they could have their meeting. Brook Lynn excitedly told Blaze about the record label, and Blaze loved the idea. Brook Lynn admitted that it had been Natalia’s idea, and it was up to Blaze whether or not she wanted her mother involved.
Just then, Natalia approached and asked what she’d missed. Brook Lynn excused herself so Natalia and Blaze could talk. Natalia made a long speech about how genuinely sorry she was for everything that had happened as a result of her words. She promised to respect whatever decision Blaze made about Natalia’s involvement in Blaze’s career. As grateful as Blaze was for everything her mother had done for her, she was moving on to a new phase of her career and personal life, and she couldn’t see Natalie involved in either. She continued that it was because of Natalia’s inability to accept who Blaze was and had always been, and if Natalia couldn’t accept it, Blaze didn’t know where they would go from there.
Across the deck, Josslyn complained to Giovanni about how hot it was. He remarked that he would probably take a dip in the Quartermaines’ pool that night, and Josslyn invited herself and Trina along.
A few minutes later, Brook Lynn approached Giovanni and asked him to recommend something for her to order to celebrate the good day she was having. She observed that he seemed to like working there, but she wondered if he would be interested in some local session work, as well. “Absolutely!” he exclaimed, and she told him that there was a new record label that could use his talent.
In Sonny’s office, he told Brick on the phone to keep an eye on Ava’s suite, as he wanted to know everything she was doing and everyone she was seeing. He requested 24-hour surveillance with photos. When he hung up, Kristina entered his office and told him about Ava’s subpoena. Sonny assured her that the case wouldn’t make it to court. Scott arrived and informed Sonny that the courts had ruled against blocking Ava’s visitation with Avery, and he handed Sonny the paperwork proving it. He told Kristina that he'd see her the next day for her deposition. “Go to hell,” Kristina muttered, and she stormed out. Scott left, and Sonny crumpled up the paperwork.
A few minutes later, Sonny told someone on the phone to block Ava’s visitation, as he wanted her nowhere near Avery. Lois arrived after Sonny hung up, and they caught up. Lois wanted to talk to him about the record label, as she wanted to look out for Brook Lynn. She loved him and wanted to trust him, but she asked point-blank if the label was going to be “clean or not.” Sonny accused her of turning on him like everyone else, and he invited her to leave.
In Ava’s hotel room, Ava talked to Trina about work shipments, and Trina was taking notes. Trina was startled when Jagger emerged in a towel, and Ava explained that he was using her shower because it had better water pressure than the place he was staying. Trina excused herself to go to work and left. Ava advised him that using discretion would have been better, but he reminded her that she’d had no problem with him walking around naked the night before. She informed him that he couldn’t stay there, as it would look bad with the custody battle going on.
A short while later, Jagger emerged fully clothed, and he remarked that he wasn’t eager to parade Ava around on his arm, either. She cracked that he seemed to have trashed his reputation just fine without her help. She advised him to take his bags with him, but he replied that he couldn’t because he was going to work. He figured he would pick them up that night, so they could see each other again. He gave her a smoldering look and left.
Trina found Josslyn at the pool and stammered that she’d just seen something she wasn’t supposed to see. She told Josslyn about Ava and John, and she didn’t know what Ava was thinking. Josslyn replied that Ava always had an agenda, so Ava thought that John would be helpful to her in some way.
There was a knock on Ava’s door, and she let Kristina in. Kristina demanded that Ava withdraw her subpoena of Kristina, but Ava refused, citing that she was doing the best she could to protect her child. Kristina commented that she wouldn’t be at the deposition or the hearing, and Ava coolly replied that Kristina could do what she wanted as an adult. “Withdraw it, or you won’t like what happens next,” Kristina growled.
“You are your father’s daughter,” Ava observed. Kristina felt sorry for Avery being stuck with Ava for a mom, but Ava reminded Kristina that she hadn’t exactly hit the “parent lottery,” either. As someone took photos through the window of the room, Kristina screamed that she would tell the court that Ava had killed Morgan and Connie. “Listen to me,” Ava interrupted as she grabbed Kristina’s arm. “Don’t touch me,” Kristina demanded as she jerked back. She tripped on John’s bags and fell into the window, falling through and landing in the pool below, to the shock of every pool-goer.
