Monday, July 23, 2018 (S56E79): Baby On The Way

Alexis talks to Lucas about the adoption; the birth mother could go into labor any time now.  Kim offers to help Julian move into the Metro Court for the time being; she brings up Julian having referenced their future together.  She tells him, she likes him, but she doesn’t want them to get ahead of their selves; he tells her he is happy for the first time in a while, because of her.  She says she just likes it being “easy” and isn’t looking for a commitment; she is most concerned about Oscar, she tells him.  She admits she has never really had the time for or interest in anyone else.  Lucas admits that he is pretty nervous about becoming a father; he also dreads the thought that the mother might change her mind at the last minute.*Finn goes back into the burning stable to look for Peter; he finds him passed out on the floor and picks him up.  Maxie offers to perform the breathing, while Finn pumps Peter’s chest; Maxie begs Peter not to die.  She tells the paramedics, when they arrive, that they have to save him.  Finn calls Anna when the arrive at the hospital; Lucas takes Peter back to examine him.  He is stable.  Maxie asks to have a minute with him; she tells him she doesn’t care about him at all – she just doesn’t want to see any more death.  She says she read the book, and assuming that any of it is true, she is sorry for the bad things that happened to him… but, “so what” she says… “so do a lot of people,” but most don’t chose to take their garbage out on other people.  She tells him he owes it to those people who saved him, to “do better” and she leaves the room; Jordan comes in and places him under arrest.  Nina thanks Valentin for saving her life… he kisses her on the head.  He tells Alexis that Nina is going to need her help.  Jos and Oscar are alone at the house; she suggests they “take it upstairs.”  Oscar hesitates; she asks him what’s wrong.  He says he doesn’t think it’s a good idea; she can’t believe he doesn’t want to have sex – he says he does, just “not yet.”  She asks why and he tells her that he doesn’t want her to regret their first time.  She doesn’t get his reasoning and ends up telling him to leave, saying she wants to go to bed early tonight.
