08-01-2017 (Tuesday) The Strength of Stone

Julian comes home; he asks Ava when she started wearing her mask.  She tells him Sam convinced her to put it on; she tells him she came by looking for him, was actually really nice to her.  She says she didn’t seem like herself; he tells her she wasn’t.  He says she is in the hospital now and might be dying; mentions the Toxoplasmosis, which he believes she got when their sister pushed her off that bridge.  She tells Julian about her conversation with Sam, and she says she couldn’t tell if Sam was encouraging her to move on from all Sonny has done to her, or to destroy him.

Hayden stands up, shocked to see Jared (her ex)  and asks him how he is there; he tells her he thought she would wait for him when he was serving time for her.  He says maybe it was naive but he thought doing the time would save their marriage.  She says they are done with each other; he says no they’re not.  He tells her he is happy for her, but kinda feels bad for the “good doctor.”  He tells her she owes him for what he did for her.  He tells her he wants money; she laughs.  She tells him she makes very little at the hospital and has nothing to give him.  He starts going off about what a horrible wife she was, always nagging about his deals on the tennis court, and what she did to him, bringing up her getting in a car, drunk and swerving down the road – hitting a girl who was walking her dog on the side of the road, throwing her up against a tree.  She screams she knows it was her who did that, but says he was the one who told the cops it was him; he say yeah, “you did the crime, I did the time.”  She lashes back with how he tried to blackmail her; she says she was so upset about his running around on her, she got drunk and made the biggest mistake of her life.  She says he took the most horrible thing she’s ever done and used it against her to get a payoff.  He leaves, telling her this isn’t over.

Finn goes to the Floating Rib, where he finds Curtis; he tells Curtis about his conversation with Hayden regarding marriage.  Curtis tells Finn that his Aunt Stella moved to town and ripped his relationship with Jordan clean apart.  Finn says he needs to tell Curtis a few things; he asks if maybe his aunt is using this convalescence to control him a little bit, maybe even subconsciously – Curtis says if he’s with Jordan, it makes his aunt sick.  Finn says, “no it doesn’t.”  He tells him he is a doctor and he knows neither he nor Jordan caused her stroke; he says if he wants to be with Jordan he can’t let his aunt stand in the way.  Jordan and Curtis run into each other when Curtis goes to the hospital to get his aunt’s meds; Jordan explains she has a perp up in surgery.  They have a little small talk, ending with “it’s always something, isn’t it?”  .  Finn comes home, pulls out an onion ring and asks her to indulge him; he takes her hand and asks her if she will marry him.  She hesitates, still regretting her past mistakes, but with his reminder of his ever-lasting love, she says she meant what she said the first time, and answers, “yes, I will marry you.”  They kiss.

Jordan tells Dante that they also founds strands of hair in Garvey’s car; they think they are going to match Spencer.  They can at least put him in jail on kidnapping charges; Dante asks if they didn’t find any evidence on Sonny’s whereabouts.  She says sorry.  Carly holds Garvey’s Morphine line in her hands; she tells him to tell her where he left her husband.  She tells him she knows other people that can make him talk, maybe even require him more surgery; Dante walks in the room and asks Carly what the hell she is doing.  Dante tells Carly she needs to leave; she says okay, but if he can’t get this bastard to talk, she’ll get someone else who will.  Jordan assures Carly she will do everything she can to find Sonny.  Sonny stares now at the figure standing before him; he asks if he is dreaming.  The man kneels doan and tells him its good to see him; and they hug… I don’t recognize this man – could this be “Stone”?).  Sonny stands, without a problem, and tells this man he has thought a lot about him over the years, the life he had and the way he died - he says it was unfair.  Sonny asks if he is there because he’s dying; the man says that’s up to him.  Sonny calls him “buddy” and says he isn’t afraid since he is there; he says if he goes with him, he can see Morgan.  Sonny tells Stone about Morgan; his namesake and Jason’s.  He says he has been trying to figure out how to live in the world without him; he thinks he may have just found out.  Stone asks if he is sure he wants to give up, reminding him of all his other kids, Michael, Kristina, Jos and Avery; Sonny thinks maybe Avery is better off without him.  Stone says if he really believes that, they can go right now; it’s Sonny’s call.

Dante introduces himself to Garvey, as a detective and as Sonny Corinthos’ son; he says he could either put a guard outside his door or let Carly do whatever she wants to do.  He asks him then, “Garvey, what did you do my father?”  He asks him one more time, after letting him know that they got all the evidence they need to hold him for Spencer’s kidnapping; Garvey losses consciousness.  The doctor tells Dante the rest of his questions will have to wait until tomorrow.  Michael and Nelle break the news about Sonny to Joslyn; Jos feels horrible for the way she has been treating him and bad-mouthing him to her mom.  Michael hugs her and tells her that Sonny understands.  Carly goes home; Jos apologizes to her, for everything.  She says she is really sorry for being so mean to her; Carly hugs her and tells her it’s okay.  Sonny changes his mind and decides that he wants to go home to his wife and kids; Stone tells him to close his eyes and feel that there are no walls that can stop him.  He tells him to open his eyes and look up; he says that’s the way out – he tells him he just has to fight, and reminds him that he is one hell of a fighter.  Sonny wakes up, struggles to his feet and determines to make it out of there

Nelle tells Carly that she is sorry for all they are going through, and tells her she is there if they need anything, but says she is going to go now… she turns to get her purse.  Dante comes in and says they’ve narrowed the search along the river bank; he says it’s not much but it is progress.  Carly suggests they all say a prayer for Sonny; Nelle starts to leave and Jos stops her, she says she is a part of her and she wants her to be a part of this… Carly says okay, and begins the prayer as they all hold hands.  She says the sky is darkest just before the light; prays this is true because it all seems so dark.  She asks God to fill them with his light and to make all right in the world as he has planned and wants it to be.  Sonny gets a burst of strength and hoists himself up onto some barrels.
