05-15-2017 (Monday) Where is Anna?

Julian, in handcuffs, sits at a table; the district attorney has an offer for him.  Scotty sees Alexis and asks if she is there for Julian’s arraignment; she tells him, even if she had her license back, she wouldn’t be defending him because she’s a witness.  She tells him she has to go.  The D.A. offers Julian his freedom in exchange for Sonny Corinthos; he wants him to “be a rat.”  The plan is for him to “provoke” Sonny while they keep him under surveillance; the D.A. says, they’ll get Sonny when he goes after Julian.  Julian turns down the deal; he says it’s not for him.  The D.A. gets mad and says that’s okay; he tells Julian that his guilty verdict is a sure thing.  He tells Scotty that the arraignment has been postponed.  Scotty is mad when Julian tells him the D.A. made him an offer; he says offers are supposed to go through him.  He then gets mad at Julian for turning the offer down, saying he is going to lose and screw up his winning streak.  Scotty tells Alexis Julian just blew the best chance he had; she goes in to talk to him.  She tells him that despite everything that has happened, she doesn’t want him to go to prison, but she doesn’t know how to stop it.

Elizabeth hugs Franco when she sees him; she asks about the bruises on his face.  He says that’s the thanks he gets for helping Jason; he tells her, thanks to him, Jason had a breakthrough about Jake.  He asks where Jake is; Jake is on top of the hill, looking at his Chimera thermos.  Elizabeth is horrified when Franco tells her he beat up Jason to recreate him being disoriented; he tells her it’s okay though, because it worked.  They go looking for Jake when Aiden says he didn’t want to play with him; Jake closes the lid to his box quickly when he hears his mother calling him.  Franco asks to see his magic box, but Jake says it’s for his eyes only; Elizabeth tells him to come eat lunch and he leaves his box on the park bench.

Sam hugs Jason when he walks in the door; she says, it’s not how long he was gone, it’s where he was.  She asks what the bruises are from; he tells her Franco followed him.  Jason describes the whole expedition to Sam and says he is worried about what Jake saw; Sam says it is a lot to process.  Jason says they can’t waste any more time and calls Liz; he says he needs to see Jake.  She tells him where they are and Jason says they are on their way; Jake asks if he has to talk about when his dad looked different and says he doesn’t want to talk about that, ever again.  When Jason shows up, he asks Jake to go talk privately with him; he tells Jake he doesn’t have to worry about him… or the scarecrow.  Jake gets a nervous look on his face; Jake tells his dad, it’s not about what he did… it’s about what he didn’t do.  He says his mom always taught him if he saw something bad, he should tell someone, but there was no one to tell when he saw the man beating his dad up.

Jason assures Jake nothing that happened on the island was his fault; he says just the fact that he wanted to help him, means everything in the world to him and tells Jake he is very brave for surviving all he went through.  He promises Jake “that woman” is gone and will never hurt him or his family again; Jason kisses Jake’s head.  Jake looks at his magic box and tells his dad there is something else he doesn’t know; he says there’s something else he needs to tell him.  Jason tells him he can tell him anything, reminding him there’s always a fix.  Jake just tells him that he loves him and doesn’t care what he looks like; he says he’s the best dad ever.  Then he tells him Spencer sent him a magic kit and he wants to practice, without Aiden; Jason says he will go play with Aiden to keep him busy.  Jake tells him he’s the best dad ever.  Jake gets upset when Aiden comes up behind him and sees the Chimera container; he tells Aiden it is a secret and he can’t tell anyone.  Franco apologizes to Jason for thinking Jake was afraid of him, instead of afraid for him; Jason says he started to think the same thing, and admits that it was Franco who got Jake to open up so they could find out about this.

Valentin takes Anna to an empty house; he tells her it’s almost like he still doesn’t know her.  He offers her a glass of champagne; Anna wakes up, again, in a hospital bed – in London, England – the nurse asks her if she knows where she is.  While still talking to Valentin, Anna says she deeply regrets what she did to him and is trying to make amends; she brings up the Chimera project again, asking for more details.  He tells her Nina left him because of her; in London, the nurse tells her they knew she wouldn’t be able to speak when she woke up.  She says her doctor is Dr. Lancaster, she thinks Anna is “Doctor Alex Merrick” and she says she is Sister Caroline Crane. Anna is told she’s had a medical incident and they’ve been caring for her there at the clinic.  Anna says she didn’t know he and Nina had broken up and apologizes if she had anything to do with it; he tells Anna to stop talking.  He says he loved Nina and he thought of Anna as an adversary; someone who denied their mutual past.  Since she has admitted everything, good and bad, he says, he can’t blame Nina for leaving him; in the hospital, Anna grabs her mouth.  The nurse says she knows it’s frightening, not being able to speak; she tells Anna Dr. Lancaster found her “in her flat” and brought her here.  Anna grabs the nurse when she says she is going to get him; Anna passes out as she strains to say something.  The nurse runs for help.

Valentin tells Anna that Nina left because she sensed that he still felt something for Anna, as strong as it was all those years ago; Anna says she has feelings for him too, but tried hard to fight them, for his marriage.  She says that’s why she has to make sure she hasn’t left any wreckage behind, like the Chimera project.  She says he stole it for her, so it’s her fault it’s out there, adding that it should be locked up in a lab somewhere at the WSB.  He says the WSB should have never created it and assures her there is nothing to worry about anymore; he steps closer to her.  She starts to get seductive and says she wants to talk about them now, what they were and what they could be; the doctor says she needs another sedative.  The nurse questions it being too soon for another injection; he says he knows what she needs.

Anna tells Valentin they have a connection and they should just accept it; he tells her if she keeps asking for it she is going to get it.  He says she may have second thoughts because deep in side he is the same man he used to be; she says he was always beautiful inside.  He says he was weak compared to her, but not anymore; she tells him he is strong and handsome and equal in every way, adding that they shouldn’t have any secrets from each other.  She kisses him; he kisses her back.  Anna asks Valentin to make love to her; he asks her if she's sure that’s what she really wants, then he pulls off her Chimera necklace, and tells her he is one step ahead of her.
