Monica visited A.J. and they discussed Alan. Monica told A.J. that things
would be better between A.J. and Alan if Alan knew that A.J. was still sober;
however, that would mean revealing Carly's setup.  A.J. explained that he is
not protecting Carly so much as protecting the baby. He agreed to tell Alan
the truth after Carly has the baby. After Monica left, A.J. called somebody
[an attorney probably] and asked if the court order to determine the baby's
paternity [via a blood test] was ready.

Lorraine went to a meeting with Tony at GH. She thought she was going for a
job interview but Tony got her in his office and grilled her about Carly. What
is the big secret she knows about Carly?  He is convinced that Lorraine is
blackmailing Carly and threatens that she'll never hustle another bedpan in
Port Charles if she doesn't come clean.

Stef and Kath awakened in bed at Serenity, still basking in the afterglow of
their strenuous aardvarking the night before. Mooney-Gooney talk before they
dressed and returned to Port Charles.

Mike dropped into Luke's Club to RSVP the invitation for the big party Luke is
throwing. They chatted a bit about Sonny before Jason joined them. Mike asked
Luke if he invited Brenda to the party. Mike left and Luke quizzed Jason about
why he is having Brenda watched all the time.  Jason explained that if
anything happened to Brenda it would probably flush Sonny out of hiding. Right
now, he said, it looks like Sonny is still running the show. Luke asked him to
please not bring mob violence into his nightclub. Later on, Luke was surprised
by a visit from Alexis who showed up to turn down his party invitation in
person.  They talked about her being Natasha and she stressed how dangerous it
would be if Helena knew who Alexis really was.

At the Nurse's Station, Amy and Bobbie discussed having Tony and Carly for
Thanksgiving dinner. Bobbie commented that she hoped Carly wouldn't show up
for Christmas. Carly, who was cruising nearby, overheard her remark and flew
into a rage. She and Bobbie mixed it up, verbally, for a bit but Carly managed
to shut both Bobbie and Amy up when she played her trump card: she is the one
carrying Tony's baby and she's not going to let Tony get away ... ever!
