Ava, still wrapped up like a mummy, is sent home; Julian comes into the hospital looking for her.  He says he was just at her apartment and she’s not there; he wonders where she might be.  Carly and Sonny stand to leave Morgan’s grave; they turn around to see Ava standing there.  She apologizes for intruding; they ask why she’s there.  She says Morgan has been on her mind; she says he’s always on her mind.  Sonny welcomes her to his son’s grave and asks why this is the first time she’s been there.  He angrily tells her she will eventually pay for what she’s done.  She says she isn’t sure how much more she can pay; Sonny suggests she confess and go to prison.  Carly asks if she hurts, then gloats about it being the ultimate punishment; this happening to someone so vain.  She tells her, no her face is as ugly as her soul; they walk away.  Back at the bar, Carly tells Sonny, “Ava is not free, and we won’t be either until we let her go.”  She insists they cannot give Ava one more moment of grief; she tells him he is her everything and, together, they win.  Sonny tells her he has some loose ends to tie up; she asks him what if it isn’t possible for him to get out of the business.

Felix asks Ava if she is ready to go; she tells him she still needs a minute.  She tells Morgan if she could go back…she cries; she says she feels sick all the time and doesn’t know what to believe anymore.  When she arrives home, Julian is waiting for her; he says he’s been concerned.  Felix offers to help Ava remove some of her bandages; Ava asks Julian if he would do her a favor and cover all the mirrors.  He does; they talk about his upcoming trial.  Ava says she’s pulling for him; he says, “right back at ya.”  Julian gets a little uncomfortable after Felix takes off the wrap; Felix gives her instructions to put on ointment and the mask.  Julian says he has to go, but will be back; Ava looks at one of her pictures, then looks in the mirror at her scars.  She talks to herself, hatefully; she says, “this is all your fault.” 

Jordan and Curtis meet; he tells her about his Aunt Stella’s confession to him.  She says it sounds like they had a great morning, and asks why he looks so upset; he tells her his aunt’s story and says he feels so guilty for all she sacrificed.  He says it’s a game changer.  He talks about how awful he was to his auntie, having told her once that she should have had a “damn life of [her] own” – Jordan says he has to forgive himself, and asks what that means for them.  He tells Jordan his feelings for her knocked him off his feet; he says he thought they were going to go the distance.  She says so did she; he tells her he just can’t break his aunt’s heart after all she’s done for him and they agree to break up again, as they are holding hands.  Jordan says she thinks it’s the right thing (but she doesn’t know his aunt has now given Curtis her blessing); Curtis says it still feels wrong.  He says maybe when Stella gets better; Jordan says she doesn’t live in the “maybe.”  They agree to still be friends; they both says they are really going to miss each other.

Laura gets a call that there has been an “incident” – she tells Joslyn she will be right there.  Spencer is thrown down a set of wooden stairs; he screams, “you’ve messed with the wrong kid” and demands that he be let out right now.  He says to himself, “alright Valentin; game on.”  He notices a window and tries to figure out how to get up to it.  Laura arrives at Lila’s Kids to find Charlotte sitting on the bench; she asks where her pappa is; Laura tells her they couldn’t reach him so they called her.  She hugs her; Charlotte asks if it’s really true that her father killed Spencer’s father.  Laura tells her it is and hugs her again; Valentin shows up.  Spencer tries throwing a rope up to a nail on the wall above the window; he tries repeatedly and eventually gets it.  He tries to climb, but falls and breaks his glasses.  Valentin tells Laura he has been granted temporary visitation for the next three hours; he shows Laura the paperwork.  They begin to fight over Spencer again; Valentin calls him a bully.  When he makes remarks about Nikolas, Laura slaps him; he grabs her arm.  Jos returns with Charlotte, now ready to go; Laura asks her to go get Spencer for her.  Joslyn comes back and tells Laura that no one seems to know where Spencer is; Laura calls the driver, Chandler, but he doesn’t have him.  Laura says she thinks Spencer is in trouble.  Valentin tells Charlotte they will be a family again, and no one is going to stop that from happening… least of all Spencer.
