Tuesday, October 2, 2018 (S56E125): Laura Comes Home

Carly and Jason discuss Mike’s wishes not to tell Sonny what he remembered about the gun; he says he wants to tell Sonny himself.  Carly asks what if he forgets in the morning; Jason says then they will have to tell Sonny themselves.  Oscar is still pissed at his mom for not telling him he was sick two years ago when she found out; he asks her what the sense in trying a drug trial now is… he says, “the result is going to be the same; I die.”  He goes to see Joslyn, and asks if they can talk, outside; she asks what’s wrong.  He says, “nothing.”  She tells him that she knows something is going on and she wants to know what it is; he tells her he just needs some time to himself right now… he says he can’t be in a relationship at this time, that’s all.  Joslyn is stunned; he starts to walk away.  She grabs his arm and he pulls away; he tells her, “just leave me alone” and he leaves.  She stands there stunned.Margaux and Jordan discuss the case of the body in the wall; Jordan says, without solid evidence they may have to accept that this will go unsolved.  Margaux protests; she says they need to try to “flip Sonny’s right-hand man.”  Jordan tells her it isn’t going to work, and says she thinks Margaux is too close to this case.

Valentin tells Nina that he found her daughter; he shows her Sasha’s picture.  She says, “I love you so much… we are still divorced.”  He asks her what she wants to do now; she says she wants to wait for the results of the second test, just to make sure before she reaches out to her.Chase thanks Lulu for dinner; she tells him Rocco thinks he is his new best friend.  He says he’s a great kid; Lulu tells him she likes having him around because it makes her feel closer to Dante, “wherever he may be.”  Chase says he feels like he is doing his duty, watching over his partner’s family while he is gone.  Valerie gets news from Jordan; the results from the detective exam are in… Valerie passed with flying colors.  Jordan congratulates her, calling her “Detective.”  She says Chase will be her new partner, temporarily, and tells her to use Dante’s desk for the time being; Lulu is a little upset about Dante’s desk being used.  Chase tells her, “he’ll be back… this is temporary."  She says, "I know” and leaves.

“Kevin" opens the door, expecting to see Lucy, and is surprised to see Laura.  She tries to kiss him and he pulls away, asking “you’re back already?”  She says that wasn’t the warm reception she was expecting; he says she caught him at the end of a trying day.   He seems pleased when she tells him that she hasn’t even told Lulu she is back; no one else knows she is home.  (She may be in danger.)  She is a little surprised when Lucy shows up with a bowl of chicken soup; Lucy is definitely surprised to see Laura.  She hands over the soup and says she was just coming to check on “Doc” but she sees he is in good hands, and she leaves.  Laura tells “Kevin” she wants to show him how much she missed him; he tells her he really is sick… he thinks it might be the flu.  He ends up sleeping in the guest room, claiming he doesn’t want to get her sick.
