Lucas tells Elizabeth and Jason that there was a slight complication during surgery; a second source of bleeding (but they repaired it) and he should be okay.  The cord in the basement is now smoking, as it continues sparking.  Sam is still passed out.  Molly talks to Cristina; tells her she knows she is in some kind of trouble.  Urges her to tell what’s going on – Molly assumes it has something to do with a guy.  Nina tells Franco she wants to start looking into adoption, filing out applications and whatnot.  Franco now tells her that he is sure no one will let them adopt a baby with their history.  Nina says she will figure out how to do it on her own, if he doesn’t want to. 

Morgan insists he just needs to leave now; that makes Kiki a little angry and she starts ranting and calling him names – he tells her “its not working” (she thinks he means their relationship and is still mad)… he explains, it is his penis that is not working.  Probably side effect of the meds.  They both agree they really want to make their relationship work, so they are going to continue taking it slow.

Sonny goes to the chapel; finds someone else there.  He invites him in, “plenty of room”.  He offers assistance; Sonny tells him he has it under control.  They talk about asking for influence over events they can’t control themselves; Sonny says everyone can use a helping hand, ‘even control freaks like us?’ this stranger asks.  He questions Sonny about the wheelchair… Sonny expresses his gratitude for the hospital and their staff.  Carly tells Elizabeth she and Sonny wanted to be there for Jason – and for her too.  She offers words of encouragement to Elizabeth, saying they have a lifetime to be bitter toward each other.  Jake wakes up after surgery and says that it was an accident; he didn’t mean to hurt her.  Before Jake can answer who he didn’t mean to hurt, Elizabeth comes to tell Jason that the doctor needs to speak to them.  He just tells them Jake needs to rest now. 

Molly pushes Cristina for more information and Cristina tells her a partial truth; she and her professor, tragic love story of sorts, but there’s a wife involved (everything except the fact that her professor is a woman).  The gentleman Sonny is speaking to in the chapel is appreciative of Sonny’s words about the hospital and the town – he gets up to leave and drops a necklace; St. Aloysius (he explains, it is usually worn, these days, by people with AIDS and those who care for them).  Sonny mentions that he lost someone to that too.  He wishes Sonny well – Carly comes in; “friend of yours?”  Sonny tells her they didn’t get around to names, but he felt like a friend. 

Jason leaves again, to go get food.  Jake wakes up, crying out, "I'm sorry" - when Elizabeth asks him what he's sorry for, he says, "I killed her".  The smoke detector is going off in the basement now; Sam starts coughing.  She is waking up.  Griffin Monroe is the name of Sonny’s new friend – turns out, he is the new neurosurgeon – an old friend of Lucas from med school.  Jason is now looking for Sam… Molly tells him last she saw her, last night, she was headed to Elizabeth’s house.  Now he senses something is wrong... he heads to Elizabeth's.

Nina expresses to Franco that she doesn’t want to do it without him, but she really, really wants a baby – he asks her, why now?  She says she just feels the instinct; she has more love to give.  He asks if she really thinks its time to test their relationship by adding a third person to it; she resolves that she has faith in them, but he doesn’t.  Franco convinces her that he just wants to enjoy some time, the two of them, to catch their breath and be responsible for each other before they are responsible for another life.  She says ok.  Morgan tells Kiki that he wants to stop taking the pills.  Frustrated, not able to do the one thing he really enjoys – Kiki tells him their relationship means more to her than sex; it’s a bonus.  She can be ok without it for now.  He said he’s not; he leaves.  She’s confused.  Morgan throws his pills in a garbage can ; goes into the bar and orders a beer.
