In the end, she chose Frisco.
Victor Jerome escaped from jail and died in the Quartermaine boathouse. Lucy claimed that he had choked to death. She stole the diamonds that he had with him. Alan and Lucy threw Victor's body into the harbor. They became lovers. Olivia got out of the mental institution to go to her father's funeral. Victor's son Julian heard that Duke was alive and planned to kill him. Olivia figured out that Lucy had the diamonds.
Duke went to a clinic in Brazil to have his face and voice changed so that he could return to Port Charles with a different identity. Anna thought she had seen him at the airport.
Simone gave birth to a son, Thomas Steven. Lucy was kidnapped, but wouldn't give up the diamonds. Katherine and Robert got back together. Robert proposed to Katherine as they were hanging in mid-air. She accepted.
Anna encountered Duke in the clinic, but didn't recognize him. In fact, she thought he was the man responsible for Duke's death and agreed to help Julian prove it.
After Olivia escaped from the mental institution, she kidnapped Colton. They were soon in a helicopter crash. She was going to leave him to die, but later returned to care for him. As they spent more and more time together, they began to fall in love. They were eventually rescued.
Edward's true will was brought to light. In it, he left Alan and Tracy ELQ, and made Ned treasurer of the company. Lila communicated with Edward's ghost.
Monica dumped Alan after Lucy secretly exposed her affair with him on the front page of the newspaper, which forced him to marry her. She told him that she was pregnant, but failed to tell him that she had also slept with Scotty, who assumed that the child was his. As a result, Scotty wrangled himself a prestigious position at ELQ, while he continued his affair with Lucy.
DNA tests proved that Harrison Davis was the father of Simone's child, and not her husband, Tom. To gain custody of the child, Harrison hastily wed Meg to form a complete family unit.

In his quest for a missing crystal, he discovered that the noted author P.K. Sinclair, who leased Spoon Island, possessed the other half of the crystal. Sinclair was revealed as DVX Chief Cesar Faison, whom had worked with Anna years earlier when she was a double agent. It turned out that he was still obsessed with her, and had a hold over Sean Donely as well.
Frisco and Felicia were remarried, but he secretly rejoined the WSB. Before Felicia could tell him that she was pregnant, she discovered that he was a spy again. She left him and went to stay with her grandfather in Mexico. She later returned to Port Charles and told Frisco that she was pregnant. He gave up working for the WSB and became a singer at Delafield's. They welcomed their first child, Maria Maximilliana Jones shortly thereafter.
Decker began to fall in love with Dawn, who was engaged to Ned. After Ned and Dawn married, Dawn discovered that her new husband had slept with her mother, and left town with Decker, who was being accused of murder. When they returned to Port Charles, Decker was cleared, and Dawn had her marriage annulled. Unfortunately, Dawn died in a fire.
Robin convinced Anna and Frisco that Casey was an alien. Together, they retrieved the crystal which allowed Casey to return to his own planet. Meanwhile, Scorpio discovered that Faison was still with the DVX and sought the help of Faison's old foe, Remondo, to kill Faison. On the night of Casey's departure, Anna met Shep Casey, who looked exactly like Casey Rogers. Shep was a newscaster who worked for Tiffany.

Once she was reunited with her baby, she told Robert he was the father, and left town. A blood test proved that the child didn't belong to him. Tony left Bobbie when he found out she had been lying to him about the baby.
Frisco rejoined the police department to help Robert when the Greenbelts were protesting the docking of the ELQ ship in the harbor. Meanwhile Robert was having lots of personal turmoil; his brother, Mac, whom he hated, turned up out of the blue, and Anna was driving him crazy! A new family, the Eckerts, came to town, and they turned out to be Bobbie's cousins. As a matter of fact, Bill Eckert was the spitting image of Luke!

While Anna nervously waited for news about Robert's surgery, Mac was fingered for the attempted murder of his brother. He went on trial and Jenny stood by him. Meanwhile, Sean and Scotty joined in the attempt to prove him innocent. The growing amount of evidence was all going against Mac and also Paul. A recovered Robert and Anna were growing closer and made love as a violent earthquake hit Port Charles.
The aftermath of the earthquake found Felicia and her daughter, Maxie (Frisco had left them to save the world from crime), trapped in the rubble of the brownstone. Although paralyzed from the waist down, she recovered rather quickly. During all the panic of the quake, Mac had escaped from jail.
Anna was shot on the waterfront and Robert was sure Mac was responsible. He caught Mac boarding a ship and during a struggle, Mac fell into the water. Robert was sure he had killed his brother.
Robert was indicted for Mac's murder, but he went on the run when he found out Mac was still alive. Frisco searched for Robert. Robert found Mac and learned of his innocence. Robert was shot by someone else. Anna arrived and gave first aid to Robert.

Mac and Dominique found out that Leopold, the guy who had imprisoned her, Robert and Anna in his mansion after Robert was shot, was in with Paul. Sean confronted Paul and Paul threatened him. Faison poisoned Tiffany's drink. She was hospitalized. Paul gave Sean some mysterious pills to give Tiffany. She suddenly recovered and went home.
Mac and Dominique (Leopold's wife) admitted they loved each other. Tiffany had a relapse and Paul told Sean that the pill only lasts thirty days and he'll need a constant supply for long term treatment. He blackmailed Sean into cooperating with him, but Sean informed Robert about the plot.
Monica and Alan eloped with one family witness in attendance--Lila Quartermaine. She threw a reception for everyone at the license bureau.
In an effort to escape Leopold's hold on her, and so she could be with her true love Mac, Dominique faked her own death. After getting into financial difficulty, Mac returned to Port Charles. Leopold discovered where Dominique was. Tracy cancelled her wedding plans after learning that Paul had a daughter he never told her about. They later reconciled and were wed.
Leopold was trying to make Dominique think she was going crazy. He had her committed to an insane asylum, but she escaped. She decided that she really did need therapy, so she returned voluntarily.
Nancy Eckert, Bill Eckert's wife, was murdered. There were a lot of suspects, but Bill Eckert was arrested for the crime. He was released on bail, and vowed to prove his innocence and learn the truth. Robert found a tape indicating that Lucy and Scotty had worked with Nancy; and A.J., Monica and Alan's now grown son, was being blackmailed by her. Scott was facing disbarment.
Felicia was shocked and overjoyed when she got a message from Frisco. In it, he expressed a desire to have she and Maxie with him. She would consider it, but the search for Connor's father was growing more important right then.
In a truly Agatha Christie type scene, Robert got all Nancy's murder suspects together and tricked Finian into confessing his guilt.
Robert, Anna, Bill and the WSB discovered the mystery of the cannery. Paul joined Sean. Mac discovered that Leopold was responsible for a questionable gathering of third world politicians and told Sean. They concluded that something nefarious was going on.

Bill was being pressured by the cartel to eliminate Robert permanently. Realizing that they were serious, the two staged a fake shooting. It was going to backfire when Harlan unexpectedly jumped out to shoot Robert, but he was shot by Bill. Bill told Leopold and Faison that Harlan was trying to stop the Robert assassination.
Lila continued her discussions with Edward's picture and one day he actually made a reappearance and answered her in person. He explained that he was being threatened by the cartel and was hiding in the Caribbean. Anna and Robert brought him back.

Jason wanted to impress Karen, so he took her out on one of the Quartermaine boats for an afternoon picnic. He didn't count on street rogue Jagger, who was also interested in Karen, stowing away with them. They soon got caught in a severe storm and the boat was destroyed. The three teens found their way to a deserted island. They were unaware that the storm also stranded Joseph Atkins, Bobbie's pen pal who escaped from jail, and his brother, Cal.

Determined to end her son's marriage, Tracy hired Marco Dane, formerly of Llanview (One Life to Live) to dig up some dirt on Jenny, which he did.
