Carly wakes up, forgetting that Morgan is dead; she is confused as to why her mother is there.  Bobbi reminds her that Morgan is gone – she says it was just a dream, a nightmare that Sonny told her their son was dead.  But then she goes downstairs and finds Sonny’s jacket, covered in mud; she recalls his entrance and the look on his face, says she could hear the things that he was saying, but felt it couldn’t be happening; she says, “he can’t be dead, right Mom?”  Bobbi hugs her.  

Tracy is on the phone with another member of the board, arguing about the potential sale of the hospital; she gets told that security will be called, if she tries to come there.  She tells Monica that an investor wants to turn the hospital building into luxury condos; Monica tells her to wait while she changes her clothes.  They are going down there.  Lulu greets Laura upon her arrival back in Port Charles; they talk, at the Floating Rib.  Lulu asks her mother if she doesn’t think she can ever trust Kevin again; she is afraid that once she trusts someone again, they will prove her wrong, because that’s how it’s always been.  Olivia joins them, just as Dante calls to let Lulu know he is done working for the night; she leaves.  Ned shows up to talk to Olivia; Laura excuses herself.  Ned asks why they are still hiding their relationship, since Julian now knows; Olivia tells him that if they tell everyone, then it becomes real (and if it’s real, she can screw it up).  He gets her to agree to go to a movie in public and she kisses him right there in the dining room.  

Dante tells Michael that their brother is dead; Michael questions how this could have happened.  Dante explains that the bartender took Morgan’s keys, so Morgan stole a car – it happened to be Julian Jerome’s.  Michael immediately says no one hated Julian more than dad; Sonny walks in.  Michael begs his father to tell him he is not the reason that Morgan is dead; Sonny says he doesn’t know how this happened.  Michael insists he must have given the order; he asks Sonny if vengeance was worth Morgan’s life.  Jason pulls Michael out of the room.  

Dillon comes to see Kiki; she tells him she hasn’t been able to get a hold of Morgan to break things off – he won’t answer her texts.  Dillon goes on to work; Ava shows up to talk to Kiki.  She tells Kiki there was an accident late last night involving Morgan; Kiki gets up, ready to go to the hospital.  Ava tells her there is no where to go… Morgan is gone.  She asks how.  Ava explains; she says he was upset after he thought he saw her and Dillon together, being intimate.  Distraught, Kiki tells her mother she has to go.  Michael comes home to the mansion before Monica and Tracy leave.  Tracy starts mouthing off about Sonny, Jason asks her to stop and she starts in on him.  Monica tells her to lighten up; they leave Michael and Jason to talk.  Michael blames himself for not being able to help Morgan, but says the person responsible for planting that bomb killed Morgan.  Jason says it might not have been his dad; Michael asks if he really believes that.  

Kiki shows up at Crimson; she is obviously shaken… she falls into his arms, sobbing.  He tells her, whatever she needs, he is there for her; she becomes upset and says they can’t do this.  She says, they are the reason Morgan was drinking, because he saw them together.  Dillon says they didn’t do anything wrong; she says, she shouldn’t be there.  She runs to the elevator in tears.  Dante now explains to Carly the details of Morgan’s demise; he describes the reason Morgan ended up behind the wheel of Julian’s car, and that it was a bomb that caused the explosion.  She asks if Sonny had anything to do with that bomb… Dante says he can’t answer that.  She cries; “I begged Sonny not to do anything.”  Dante tells Carly not to say anything that he might have to repeat in an official capacity somewhere down the road; he leaves her with Morgan’s phone, still bagged as evidence.

She sits down, plugs it in and listens to the last message she left for Morgan, telling him how much she loved him.  Dante goes back to the station to wait for Lulu; he angrily hits the wall in the interrogation room.  When Lulu arrives and asks what’s wrong, he tells her that his brother is dead and he might have to arrest his father for killing him. She hugs him.  Sonny comes home.  Carly tells him that she knows he just couldn’t go without getting revenge on Julian, and now their boy is dead; “you killed him,” she screams, as she smashes a family picture to the floor.  Sonny starts crying.

10-11-2016 (Tuesday)

The search continues for Morgan; so far, there is so sign of him.  Jason goes to Sonny’s to give him the bad news; they return to the crash site, and Sonny becomes frantic.  The police have to hold him back.  He breaks loose and heads for the water; Dante and Jason discuss the possibility that Sonny planted the bomb that caused the explosion.  Sonny is pulled from the water and handcuffed to a car; then Dante gets news of discovered remains below.  Morgan appears to be dead.  

Julian tells Ava that someone tried to kill him; he explains the theft, the explosion, etc., and the fact that he is sure Sonny is behind it.  Dante is sure that Sonny ordered Julian’s murder, to end the war; and the casualty was his little brother.  Then he tells her that the driver of the car was Morgan; she says it can’t be… it doesn’t make sense.  She asks if they found his body; Julian says he doesn’t think so, but the bomb was meant to obliterate the car, meant to incinerate him, he tells her.  There wasn’t anything left to be found.  Now Ava feels responsible; she recollects her switching out his pills.  Julian says it was Morgan’s own fault, for mixing his psych meds with alcohol; Ava says, no… and tells Julian it was her fault.  He asks how; she says, she knew what was going on with him.  He tells her that doesn’t make it her fault; he says, it was him or Morgan and he’s glad it wasn’t him.  He walks away and leaves her crying.  She looks sincerely sad.  She drops her glass; it falls to the floor and breaks.  She remembers the first time she and Morgan kissed; and their first Christmas together, then dumping the placebo pills in his pill bottle… them telling each other they loved each other.  She crumbles to the floor, sobbing, “what have I done?”

Franco comes to get food for Elizabeth at the Metro Court, but he doesn’t have the money to pay for it; Nelle doesn’t fall for his lies.  Carly comes in and lets Franco take the food, just to get rid of him; he returns to Elizabeth’s where he finds Sam.  She brought Jake his Math book for school; an argument erupts when Franco gets too close for Sam’s comfort.  Jake comes down and asks why they are fighting.  He wants to know why Sam doesn’t like Franco; Franco takes time to explain that, once upon a time, he wasn’t such a nice guy.  He admits to hurting people, including Sam, and says she is right not to forgive him.  Jake asks if he is sorry; Franco says, every minute of every day.  

Carly commends Nelle on the great job she’s doing; complimenting her abilities.  Nelle tells her she will take care of the sprinkler problem; she tells Carly to go on home.  Sonny is allowed to go home; Jason goes with him.  Carly is calling him to see where he is.  Sonny gives Carly the bad news; it appears that somebody is watching through the window as Carly falls to her knees.

10-10-2016 (Monday)

Jason heads toward the explosion…he can’t see Morgan.  He goes back to his truck to call for help.  He tells the firemen that the driver is either trapped in the car or in the river.  As the emergency crew searches the area, Jason describes the events to Dante; he tells him the explosion blew the car over the cliff, and Morgan was on that side of the car.  He may have gone over the cliff.  Molly finds TJ, at the diner, with blood all over his face and cut lip/cheek where Morgan hit him; he tells her what happened.  They overhear Dante come in to take Julian’s report; they stand up and they discretely tell Dante they know who might have the car; Morgan.  

Kiki runs into Nelle at Metro Court; Nelle tells her she saw Morgan earlier, but doesn’t tell her everything that happened; she says he was not in good shape.  She doesn’t know what he’s done; Kiki says she needs to talk to him.  Nelle offers to listen, but Kiki says she has to talk to him first; she mentions how hard this is for her.  As she walks to the elevator, Nelle sneers “You think it’s hard on you, Princess…it’s harder on him.”  

Dillon tells Tracy that he and Kiki have decided to be together; she assures Dillon that she will be happy for him, no matter what.  Julian berates his driver for leaving the keys in the car; and fires him, he looks at his phone and sees the GPS tracker location.  Carly likes Sonny’s new attitude; although she is having a hard time believing that he is just going to let things go.  He assures her everything will be alright.  He tells her what he experienced at the church and how he feels now; she is happy to hear it; they kiss and decide to go home together.  They go upstairs to make love.  A nice love scene ensues.  

Finn and Hayden tell Tracy what they heard about the hospital being sold, a man named Grey, etc.; Tracy vows to stop it.  Finn and Hayden talk about his work in the lab; he says he’s making progress, maybe a breakthrough.

Alexis sits drinking; her girls show up at the door.  Sam asks her point blank if she’s been drinking.  She tells her it was Anna DeVane’s wine glass; apology accepted.  Alexis admits to her daughters that she did not get the contracting job; they assure her she will find something.  Alexis suggests she expand her horizons by writing a novel possibly; Sam tells her she may have the solution.  She offers her a consulting position with her investigation service; Alexis thanks her, and accepts but, after assuring Molly that the ‘words’ being spewed about her and spread all over the internet are only going to make her stronger; she tells her girls to go have fun.  As soon as she gets them out the door, she drinks her glass of wine.  

Sonny gets annoyed by Griffin’s assessment of him; and assures him that none of his children will pay for his sins because he protects them from that.  He tells Griffin God only helps those who help themselves, which only makes Griffin angrier and he states that is not a scripture.  He admits to terrible sins, wishing someone had reached out to him – tells Sonny he has the chance to avoid regret and recrimination by not doing anything to Julian.  He tells Sonny what he is contemplating is a mortal sin and he knows it.  Sonny argues from his perspective; Julian is a killer, who stabbed somebody and put a knife to his wife’s throat.  Besides, Sonny thinks, he is way past the point of redemption.  Griffin pleads with him to change his mind, for the sake of everyone who loves him.  Sonny calls to “cancel the job” but it might be too late.  

Ava tries to talk to Morgan; he is already getting drunk and even more angry.  He tells her she won; he found Kiki and Dillon “going at it” he says (not true, but…) after Dillon apologizes for kissing Kiki, she tells him she kissed him back; he says he took advantage, but she says he did not.  He thanks her for consoling him; she says the kiss was about more than his pain… it’s about the way they feel for each other.  He looks shocked and asks what about Morgan?  She tells Dillon that she has realized Morgan may not be the one for her.  

When Morgan tries to leave the bar, the bartender takes his keys.  Morgan leaves the bar on foot, then sees a car with a button ignition, with windows down.  He reaches for the door, but TJ stops him; he tells him he can’t let him go anywhere in that car.  Morgan tricks him into turning around, pushes him and gets in the car; Jason finds TJ on the ground.  TJ tells Jason that Morgan just stole that car.  When Sonny gets home, Carly notices a change in him; he tells her that he believes for the first time in a long time, that things are going to be alright again.  Kiki is somewhat devastated when she realizes Dillon is the one for her; she says she has to tell Morgan what is in her heart, and leaves in tears to find him.  As Morgan speeds down the road, Jason catches up to him in his SUV and calls him; Morgan puts the phone on speaker.  Jason does his best to talk him down and asks him to pull over to talk to him.  He does; however, the car Morgan stole apparently belongs to Julian, and when Morgan steps out of it, something explodes.

Wow... that means Morgan will be injured (or possibly dead) at Sonny's own order, because this would have been the "job" he was trying to cancel.  OMG

10-06-2016 (Thursday)

The shadows in the window, kissing, now drop to the floor; Morgan hears a female groan… he grabs an ice hook off of a tool rack and thrusts it into the door of the shed where he believes Kiki and Dillon are about to make love; he goes back to the floating rib, where he tells Nelle he just found out his girlfriend is cheating on him.  It turns out to be Olivia and Ned; they are out of breath and discuss how good they are together.  They kiss some more; they have sex again.  Olivia gets up to make sure the door is locked (after all this time) and finds it unlocked; when she opens it, she finds the ice hook.  She thinks somebody is sending them a message; she says this is Julian’s way of threatening them.  Ned determines that he is going to talk to Julian right now; Julian is unimpressed.  He denies any knowledge of the hook, says he really could care less that they are seeing each other, but tells them if they try to keep his son from him they will have to worry.

Morgan pulls out his pills, and orders a glass of water then tells Nelle he is tired of taking them because they are not working anyway; he says he can’t drink so he can’t be “normal” – Nelle lifts her glass and offers a toast, saying she can’t drink either; she asks him if he thinks she’s not normal.  He tries to kiss her, to which she objects promptly and sets him straight that it was not an invitation to kiss her.  Anna has lunch with Griffin; they talk about Emma (Anna Skyped with her this morning).  Griffin finds it sad that a little girl like that has to know such evil exists; he then mentions how he can’t believe Julian went free.  

Griffin says, he tries to tell himself it’s all part of God’s plan, but it’s not helping; in fact, he admits, he feels hatred and he does not like the feeling but he can’t get rid of it.  It’s not very Christian, he adds; Anna touches his hand and tells him, no, but it’s human.  Morgan keeps postponing the taking of his pills, while Kiki is at Dillons, helping him go through photos for the magazine.  Kiki tells Dillon he’s not alone; she knows what it’s like to know that your parent has done some horrible, horrific thing… but they are not responsible for it.  He says it helps knowing at least she understands.  They reminisce about the night of the Nurses Ball; their first kiss.  They end up kissing again.  Morgan throws his pills in the garbage once more and orders his regular (alcoholic) drink at the bar.  

Julian walks into Alexis’ house, uninvited; she screams and grabs the phone, saying she is going to call the cops.  Julian says she doesn’t need to… he just came to get his last box.  I guess she allows him to, because he is about to walk out the door when Anna arrives; she tells him it’s a surprise to see him there, of all places.  He says they are both free; she says that’s just a matter of time.  People are going to figure out all of his lies and he will eventually pay.  He excuses himself promptly; Anna asks to talk to Alexis.  Alexis tells her she is tired, she can’t talk long; Anna questions her behavior on the witness stand (and notes that she has been drinking at this time as well); Alexis breaks down and admits that it is all her fault that Julian is out there running around right now.  Anna agrees.  She tells Alexis she cannot let him in here again; reminds her it’s a violation of the restraining order, to which she is a witness.  

Sonny goes to the church, to speak with God… the priest welcomes him, asking if he’s there for confession.  Sonny says no thanks; he just wants to be alone; he proceeds to talk about having to do something about Julian and knowing God understands why.  Sonny hears someone else at the door; it’s Grffin.  He asks if he was listening…for a second, Griffin replies – sounds like they are both there for the same reason; he came to pray for guidance, he says and for humility.  Sonny asks why.  Griffin says, if he can accept the fact that he may not ever have all the answers, he calls it Grace.  He asks what Sonny wants God to do.  

Sonny says he doesn't want anything from God.  He says he knows God doesn’t approve of what he does, but He sees his heart and knows his intention.  He adds that he only does it for good, where Julian hurt good people.  Griffin tells Sonny he is with him on this one; he also wants vengeance, but he asks Sonny what gives him the right to be the one to deliver it.  Sonny explains that he lives in a world, where someone can come after you, or people you love, ..and well, you have to protect them.  He tells Griffin that God doesn’t really deliver; He just talks a really good game.  Griffin sits quietly for a while, but then gets angry and makes the suggestion that maybe Sonny doesn’t believe in God at all.  Sonny sits, stone faced.
