Sonny, at the gym, begins to make plans about Julian; Jason shows up, saying he has a possible solution.  Sonny tells Jason that he has an independent blind contract; no money trail – Jason asks Sonny to let him check this guy out, to make sure nothing will come back on him.  Carly tells Morgan she is really proud of him, giving him a gift of a Jade necklace (for the power of ‘balance’); he is obviously distraught, hiding the fact that he is already falling behind in school, but tells her he’s alright.  Dillon shows up at the Metro Court, to meet with Anna… she asks him if he can possibly help her figure out where his father is.  Dillon asks what’s going on; Anna tells him she needs to get a hold of him to get information for a case.  

Dillon tells Anna that his mom went to find his sister, somewhere up in the Finger Lake Region.  Anna attempts to call.   Sam goes to see her dad, simply to tell him that there is nothing left for him in Port Charles anymore; she tells him point-blank that he needs to leave.  Sam goes on to say that she despises him and despite what he did for Danny, she wishes he never came into her life… but she has seen enough bloodshed in Port Charles and doesn’t want to see his added to it.  He asks her how much she knows about Sonny’s plans; she says she knows nothing about any plan, just knows the rules they play by.  She thinks he should disappear tonight and promises him nobody will ever come looking for him; she says they all just want to forget he ever existed.  When she gets back, Jason and she exchange their respective conversations; Sam fears that Julian is not going to be the only one getting hurt if something goes down between him and Sonny.  Julian tells one of his men that he has a heads up that Sonny is making a move, and they need to stop him before he gets the chance.  

Ava goes by to see Kiki, and stresses her concerns about Morgan’s temper; she tells Kiki she thinks she should leave him.  Tracy tries, as a last-ditch effort, to tell Paul that if he kills her, he is guaranteeing his own death; she Luke Spencer will avenge her, even if the police don’t figure it out.  She also does her best to convince him that he needs her to get out of this; she says Dillon knows she was inquiring into Susan’s whereabouts, and if she doesn’t make it home, the police will come looking for her.  She tells Paul that she understands his motive, although she doesn’t agree with his methods; she swears she will help him cover it up.  Her phone rings (it’s Anna); Paul tells her not to answer it, but she does, and she screams as loud as she can for help.  Paul gets ahold of her, destroys her phone, and ties her up and gags her.  

After sending away a concerned neighbor who happened to hear Tracy scream, he goes back to Tracy – he tells her he has to do this, but he concedes he cannot strangle her; he goes to a drawer and gets a syringe out instead.  Anna bursts in the door.  Paul tells her to put her gun down or he will shove the needle in Tracy’s neck; Dillon walks in and tells his dad that if he kills his mother, he will have to kill him too
