"Undead about Town" - Stavros Storyline:
Stavros and Chloe meet at the Grill for dinner. Chloe comments on his interesting name, Lucien Kane. He starts talking about the Biblical Cain and Abel and how he would change the story and have the one brother come back from the dead and get even with his brother by going after the thing he desires. Then he confesses his true identity - Stavros Cassadine! Chloe screams and . . . we realize it was one of those daydreams GH uses from time to time.
Back in reality, Stavros turns on the charm. He says he knows Stefan, that they have mutual friends and enemies, which leads Chloe to ask if he knew Stavros. He says yes and that Stavros was not a monster, just misunderstood. He goes on about how Stavros was brilliant and tenacious, then asks if Chloe is taken with Stavros. Obviously uncomfortable, she decides to call it a night.
Stavros hangs around long enough to overhear Gia accosting the Grill manager, trying to get him to let Lucky and Liz have their wedding reception there, even though it's short notice. She tries dropping names, saying she's extremely close to Prince Nikolas Cassadine. The manager is not impressed, but she's got Stavros' attention; he oils his way over to her and pretends to be a fan. Gia's attention is drawn to Nikolas entering the Grill. Stavros stares at him across the room for an instant, then goes back into stealth mode and vanishes before Gia turns around. Gia goes over to join Nikolas, Lucky and Liz, while Stavros imagines a reunion with his son where Nikolas claims he will do whatever it takes to be just like him.

"A Walk Down Memory Boulevard" - Laura and Scotty Storyline:
Scott has whisked Laura off to Los Angeles, the location of their honeymoon. He presents her with an empty photo album titled "Laura & Scott's Excellent Adventure" and tells her they will fill it together. Then he gives her a purple parasol like he had all those years ago and a star with her name, Laura Webber, in it. He introduces her to the photographer who will accompany them as they relive their honeymoon. Giggling like she is apt to do around Scotty, Laura agrees to go along with the plan. They end up in a sound stage (reality shot) where Scott tells an incredulous Laura that he is going to make a movie with her as the star.

"Cut Your Losses, Daughter o'Mine" - Carly-Sonny Storyline:
At the penthouse, Bobbie advises Carly to divorce Sonny, pointing out how horrible he's been by leaving her. Carly refuses to give up on Sonny, blaming herself (and rightly so) for the rift in their marriage. When she runs upstairs in tears, Mike defends Sonny to Bobbie, almost letting it slip that Sonny is not alone in hiding. Of course, Carly overhears and demands to know who Sonny is with. Mike says she misunderstood. Bobbie again begs Carly to let Sonny go before she leaves. Watching a storm brew outside, Carly breaks down and asks Mike to stay at the penthouse for the night so she won't be alone.

"A Little Bit of Heaven on Earth" - Sonny-Angel Storyline:
Sonny says he's torn between leaving and staying. Angel finally admits she wants him to stay. His response is to start telling her how to cook. Out on the porch he demonstrates how to chop celery the correct way, which involves guiding her hand himself so they are touching. He flashes his smile a couple times, which she says is nice, and flirting commences. Angel notices his ring on the railing. Later when thunder booms, Angel observes that "a storm makes everything more powerful, heightens the senses." A particularly loud clap of thunder makes Sonny jump. The lights go out in the house. Angel and Sonny drift closer to each other . . .

"The Enemy of My Enemy" - Brainwashed Lucky Storyline:
Nikolas finds Luke in the hospital basement and tells him Helena still has control over Lucky. Luke is not surprised and can't resist rubbing in the fact that Nikolas' "protection" of his brother is pathetic. Nikolas offers to return to the Cassadine family fold but work as a spy for the Spencers. Luke is skeptical that the clan will welcome the young prince back. "They have to realize that there is someone else I despise more than them," Nikolas says. "That would be me," Luke says, smiling. "News flash!" Nikolas exclaims.
But Luke insists Nikolas is too "green" to pull off a major deception. Nikolas says he'll pretend he can't live without the money. Luke still says Nikolas will fail. They end up shouting at each other and Nikolas storms out, past Helena.
Helena accosts Luke in the store room (does she worry that he's down there?). He grabs her face and says he's changing the game: now it's Lucky for Nikolas. Then he kisses her full on the lips! For an instant, Helena appears to be enjoying it. Luke runs out and appears later at the Grill, where Nikolas is with Gia, Lucky and Liz. He punches Nikolas in front of Helena, who's followed him, and the lurking Stavros. Stavros watches with murder in his eyes . . .
