Thursday, August 2, 2018 (S56E): We’ll Get Through This

Sonny asks Michael if he is ready to go; Michael says no… he needs some answers first.Kim comes in to tell Nelle that she is being discharged; Nelle asks if she can find a reason to keep her there longer, because as soon as they release her, she is going to jail.  Kim brings Michael into the room and says she has the coroner’s report on their baby; he lists the death as “unexplained.”  Nelle gets angry and insists it was the crash that killed their son; Kim says, they checked for that.  The baby didn’t suffer any injuries from the crash; Nelle says she doesn’t believe her and continues blaming Michael.  Kim says no one is to blame.

Curtis and Sam dress up as investigators for a mental health association and go to Ferncliff; they first say they want to know some things about the Carly Corinthos escape, but then tell Mary Pat this facility has been granted some “innovative” award.  They just want to make sure everything was by the books in the Corinthos case; she obliges.  Sam gets the supposed consent form; Jason says he hopes it’s enough, together with Nelle’s arrest, to get the D.A. to back off of Carly’s charges.  Chase comes back to see Nelle, but finds her bed empty; he checks the bathroom.  The guard says he just “got called away for a minute” – Nelle is on the run.  Michael shows up at the safe house; he hugs his mother.  She tells him Jos went to see him at the hospital; Jos catches Nelle walking the back halls, grabs her arm and asks where she thinks she’s going.
