10-09-2017 (Monday) Jason's Surprise

Jason makes a phone call after Sam leaves to get him lunch; Michael sees her at the counter and asks for some advice.  He is glad to hear that Jason is home, but, he says, he is struggling a little with his relationship to Nelle.  Sam tells him that he just has to find “a new normal” with her, and things will work out.  Curtis comes to visit Jason; he tells him that things are about to change.  Jason says he will do whatever he has to, to protect his family.  Curtis welcomes him home and says he has to get going, just as Jason gets a phone call from Julian; he accepts the charges.  Sam reminds Michael that she was kind of a con artist when she came to town; she says he may not remember because he was pretty young.  He says he’s heard stories.  Sam suggests he investigate himself, to see that there is nothing to worry about; Curtis comes in and Sam introduces him to Michael.  Curtis is surprised when Michael tells him what he wants him to investigate… an accidental death involving his girlfriend.  Curtis says it shouldn’t be too hard to prove that she’s guilty; Michael tells him he wants him to prove that she’s innocent.  Jason hangs up the phone just as Sam comes back in, telling Julian he won’t “regret it.”  He tells Sam he is planning a surprise; then tells her he has to go to New York.  She tells him he is not going anywhere, period.  He tells her he needs to do this; she reminds him he was just released from the hospital.  She says, if he is going to go, he has to take her with him and get permission from the doctor first; he kisses her.

Nelle brings Nina back a coffee from Perks; she tells her she tried to fake it but she doesn’t think she’ll ever make it with Michael’s family.  Nina asks if Michael defended her; she says she didn’t give him the chance.  She tells Nina Michael says all the right things; Nina realizes Nelle isn’t sure she believes him.  Nelle questions why; she says his whole family thinks that all she is after is Michael’s money, enough to kill for it.  Nina tells Nelle that actions are all that matter now.  Carly and Sonny go to the chapel; she says she can’t believe it’s been a year already.  They talk to Morgan in the chapel, telling him what they are doing in his name, and that he is still with them everyday, every where… Avery’s smile, etc.  They light candles for him, together; Griffin comes in.  Sonny says he doesn’t look well and asks if he’s all right.  Griffin mentions Ava and Sonny’s response is negative; Griffin says they will have to agree to disagree about her.  Griffin leaves; Carly and Sonny sit down together.  Nelle makes a phone call and says she needs help from this person, who doesn’t know her.  She tells them she knows she is doing the right thing.  Curtis questions Michael’s request.  Michael insists he believes Nelle is innocent of the murder accusations, but he feels she may be hiding something else.  Curtis says he may not like what he finds; Michael says, as long as it’s the truth he will take it.

Lynch tells our Jason (“Patient 6”) that the date is correct; the year is 2017.  Jason says, “it’s been five years.”  Lynch is confused, asking what he means; Jason offers to untie Lynch, reminding him that if he makes one wrong move, he could kill him without meaning to.   Lynch asks what is so important about the date; “Patient 6” (Jason) says he ran into some trouble and “lost track of time.”  Our old Jason leaves the room he’s been hiding in and goes to investigate the ship he is on.

Franco finally comes clean with Elizabeth about the picture and the twin boys, after she finds his sketchbook and sees that he has been re-sketching the painting.  He tells her the other boy is Jason’s twin brother, raised with him for the first three years of his life and then supposedly dying.  She looks at the photo, stunned.  She finally understands when he tells her the whole story; he apologizes and says he was trying to protect Betsy, as well as himself.  He was afraid it would change things between them; he asks for her forgiveness.  Liz says her heart breaks for him, and this boy, and Jason; Franco asks if she thinks Jason wants his life turned upside down right now with this information.  She says he needs to know; they argue over who she is protecting.  She says if he keeps this secret, I won’t end well for him.  Liz and Franco see Jason and Sam in the hall, they say there is something they have to tell Jason.
