Anna tells Valentine that even though he is Charlotte’s biological father, that doesn’t give him custody; she says Griffin was trusted with Charlotte’s care and if she has anything to do with it, Valentin never will get custody.  Jordan is concerned about Dante being involved with Sonny’s questioning; he asks if she wants to remove him from the case.  She says she trusts him; he says he can do it.  As he starts into the interrogation room, Diane shows up and tells them that she wants to talk to her client alone.  Dante tells Diane it’s too late; Sonny already confessed in front of numerous witnesses.  Jason sneaks in and tells Sonny that he is not responsible for Morgan’s death; he says he doesn’t know who did it yet, but he knows it wasn’t him.  

Jordan isn’t happy to see Jason in the interrogation room when she comes back in; Dante asks Jason if he is trying to cover something up.  Jason says that is the last thing he wants to do.  Jordan and Dante are disappointed, but Diane is thrilled, when Sonny says that he has changed his mind and has nothing to say after all.  Dante asks him what Jason could have said that changes everything… he doesn’t explain, only saying he is taking the advice of his lawyer.  Diane says she can argue that he was speaking metaphorically in the church, as a grieving parent would do, taking responsibility for his inadequacies.  

Franco goes looking for the man who raped Elizabeth, who is now out on parole.  He told Olbrecht he just wants to ‘size him up’ and do whatever he needs to do to make sure Elizabeth is safe.  He finds the address the man was paroled to, in a not-so-good part of town.  At the hospital, Olbrecht confronts Elizabeth and is obviously angry with her, but doesn’t explain why; as she turns, she drops the note that has the address on it, which she had taken from Franco.  The man refuses to open the door when Franco knocks, but is watching from inside; he follows Franco after he leaves.  Franco somehow sneaks back around and goes into the guy’s house; he is sitting there when the man comes back in.  He asks if he is a friend of his brother’s; Franco smiles and shakes his head no, saying he is a good friend of his rape victim, Elizabeth Webber.  

Nina talks to Valentin; he asks if he can call her as a character witness.  She tries to tell him she isn’t taking sides, but he says she already has; she is on Charlotte’s side, and he can’t be more grateful.  He tells her she would be a wonderful mother; she smiles.  Nelle talks to Michael and tells him that he shouldn’t have to be the one to fix everything; he says it’s what he does… he fixes things.  She asks who fixes him; she tells him he has to allow himself to grieve – he says he can’t right now because he has to be the one to hold his family together.

Jason goes to find Carly, who stops him before he can even say anything; she tells him she doesn’t want to heart anything more about Sonny.  He tells her she has to hear this; he tells her that Sonny’s guy did NOT plant that bomb…he got the message in time.  She asks who put it there then; Jason promises her he will find out.  Jordan goes forward with placing Sonny under arrest, for the attempted murder of Julian Jerome, and for the death of his son.
