Carly comes to see Morgan at his new job, at Perk’s.  She asks how he and Kiki are; he mentions seeing Dillon with Darby yesterday.  Then he asks about her search for Joslyn’s kidney donor; she tells him that Nina’s article, on Crimson Online, has gotten a lot of interest and maybe a lead.  He tells her not to give up; they hug and Carly leaves.  She sees Kiki on the way out; tells her she hopes she has truly made up her mind to be with Morgan.  

Michael comes back from his trip, acting slightly cold when Sabrina comes in excited to see him and hugs him.  She asks what’s going on and he asks, “why don’t you tell me?”  He mentions them kissing before he left, and now he finds out she has applied for an apartment – he wants to know when she was going to tell him that she was moving out.  He gets a little angry saying, all the way back, all he could think of was them starting a life together; and she is thinking of running away.  She says that’s the last thing she’s doing; she’s just giving him space.  He tells her he doesn’t want space; he wants her.  He says she is all he needs; she looks surprised.  He talks her out of leaving. 

Recovering now from his “episode,” Julian sees Carlos in his hospital room; he tells him to get out, he’s not real.  Carlos eggs him on, telling him he took too much of that drug… he may be joining him soon.  Griffin comes in to check on him, and he tells him there was someone in his room.  Griffin assures him there wasn’t; checks his vitals and leaves.  Carlos pops out from under the hospital bed; he laughs about how Alexis tricked him and got him to admit to killing him AND Duke.  Says now the world knows exactly who he is and there is no going back (unless, maybe…).  

Dillon and Darby end up in bed; they both agree they like each other.  Alexis asks Cristina if she is going to see Parker while she’s in town giving that lecture; Cristina claims not, saying there’s no point.  She just needs to get over her; she leaves.  Alexis looks at a photo of herself and Julian; she remembers their wedding – and tears the picture out of the frame.  She goes to the hospital to serve Julian with divorce papers.  Cristina shows up at Parker’s, tells her she is dating a really great guy; Parker looks at her questioningly.  She tells her that her journey is hers to figure out, but that she needs to be honest with herself.  She tells her she should probably go.  Cristina notices she is not wearing her wedding ring; Parker tells her she took it off… her marriage is over.  Cristina apologizes; Parker tells her it wasn’t because of her; she says it’s been a long-time coming, she just couldn’t admit it.  She says she feels like a complete failure; Cristina immediately goes to comfort her.  She  tells Parker, she understands being confused – tells her this boy is really a great guy, but she can’t help of think of her.  Parker kisses her; they end up in bed.  

Morgan and Kiki go to a room at the Metro Court; Kiki is a little concerned, feels maybe not ready, herself, but senses Morgan needs this, so goes along.  When she takes off her shirt, Morgan sees the scar and gets sad; she tells him it may be ugly, but it’s beautiful because it reminds her that they didn’t die… they got through this, together.  He kisses her, then gently kisses her belly and they finish undressing, slowly, kissing – very romantic.  Well done guys!  Nicely concealing what needs to be concealed for television, they showed an extremely loving, yet erotic love scene between these two young actors.  Sadly, when they are done, Kiki does not seem as content as Morgan.  Carlos continues haunting Julian – telling him he needs to kill Alexis if he wants to get out of this – the same way he killed him.  Julian says he wishes he could go back and undo it all, because he loves her; and as he says that, repeating, “I love her so much,” Alexis steps in the door of his room to hear him (talking to himself).  Then he drifts off to sleep.  She walks in and throws the papers on top of him as he sleeps.  There’s a knock on the door at the Quartermaine’s; Sabrina answers it… sees a man, and says, quietly, “no.”  Who is this man?????
