Sonny has more problems than Carly's legal woes. Ava is intent on destroying him and watching from the sidelines. Thanks to Ava, Sonny is taking placebos now so it's no surprise to her when he takes a swing at John outside the courtroom. Will he be arrested for assaulting an FBI agent?

Brennan gets bold

Jack Brennan also reappears this week. He is wearing a suit and a smirk after his stint in Pentonville -- a stint that has been erased from the records as if it never happened. Will Anna get to the bottom of this mystery?

Anna and Jack were WSB trainees together and she knows just how cunning he can be. However, she might want to keep an eye on Carly because Jack might make a beeline to wherever she ends up. After all, they became quite friendly when he was behind bars.

Surrogacy surprises and pool calamities

At Kristina's apartment, she and Molly try to hash it out but things go from bad to worse when Kristina is served with more legal papers. It looks as if T.J. has taken matters into his own hands. Does he plan to fight Kristina for custody of his baby?

T.J. also takes the matter up with Alexis, the grandmother of this child no matter which daughter raises the baby. Will Alexis take T.J.'s side and talk sense into Kristina?

As the week comes to a close, Port Charles lives are upended when Gio reports an accident at the Metro Court pool. Last year, Ned fell in the pool and nearly drowned. When he woke, he believed he was washed-up rock star Eddie Maine. Do we have a similar incident this year? If so, which character's life is on the line? Does something happen to a pregnant Kristina? Stay tuned to find out the answers to these burning questions.
