Ethan comes to the Haunted Star and overhears Luke and Tracy arguing about Holly. Tracy again tells Luke if he walks out on her, he should just keep walking. Luke warns her she is making it a self-fulfilling prophecy, but Tracy tells him this isn’t fun for her anymore. She hopes he stays, but she won’t hold her breath. Tracy leaves and Ethan understands Tracy’s stance. Luke tells Ethan he won’t leave because everything he wants is there. He says he may take off one day though and hopes Ethan will come with him if that happens. Ethan still doesn’t believe Holly is his mother and they debate the issue. Luke says the test results are coming in today, but Luke already knows in his gut that Ethan is his son. Ethan wants Luke to be his father, but that doesn’t mean he is. Luke is confident that he is, but if he’s not he will love him like a son anyway. Ethan can’t just sit around waiting and leaves.
Rebecca goes to the Haunted Star to see Ethan under the guise of talking about the poker game, but he's not there. Helena reveals herself and taunts her about her scam, as Luke watches from the shadows. Helena threatens to tell Nikolas she is conning him if she doesn’t team up with her. Helena will contact her with instructions to get several things from Nikolas, but Rebecca tells her not to count on her help and leaves. Luke confronts Helena and as he starts to blackmail her, Helena's new bodyguard knocks Luke out. Helena says it’s been far too long since she’s had Luke at her mercy.
Luke and Ethan meet up at The Haunted Star and Luke shows him the DNA tests he bought. Luke says all it needs is a cheek swab and they mail it in to check against the markers the FBI uses and they can check the results online. They agree to have no expectations and no judgments about each other. Luke and Ethan prepare the results to be shipped out, but Ethan doesn’t want Luke to be disappointed. Luke doesn’t think that will happen and Tracy walks in. She sees their guilty looks and is suspicious asking them what they are hiding. Ethan leaves with the tests and Tracy thinks he is up to something. She wonders if when Luke leaves the next time, will he take Ethan with him or leave him there for her to take care of?
Lucky lays into Luke, but Holly defends her former love. Lucky grows furious and Luke tells his son to take his anger out on him instead of Holly and Ethan. Holly won’t apologize for what’s gone down between her and Luke and doesn’t think he should judge Luke for one mistake. Holly wonders if Lucky is error free and suggests he stop being self-righteous and appreciate that he has a father who loves him. She tells him Luke should get credit for walking away from her in Singapore because he loved his family. Luke tells his son Ethan is a fact and there’s no wishing him away, but Lucky is past caring.
After Lucky leaves, Holly and Luke discuss his first-born and Luke hopes Ethan likes him better than Lucky does. Holly believes he already does, but thinks their son hates her. Ethan walks in and says he’d like to work on that and thanks her for giving him to a good family and seeking him out years later. Luke notes Holly is leaving now and Ethan is shocked. Holly only wanted to introduce the two of them and now she wants to leave on a positive note. Ethan doesn’t like getting played. He wishes her a good trip and is sure he’ll hear from her again the next time she needs something.
Holly and Luke toast to their son and Luke tells her he doesn’t hold a grudge against her. Holly hopes one day they have their chance and Tracy comes in as the two of them are in a close moment. Furious and fed up, Tracy admits she tampered with the DNA test and Holly says that was cruel. Tracy tells her that’s the pot calling the kettle black. She tells Luke to have his Holly and to never come after her again. Luke is so mad at Tracy he could kill her, but he won’t because she is the reason he is alive to enjoy being a father to Ethan. He tells her he is not leaving her for anybody. Holly tells Tracy if she mistreats Ethan or fails to cherish Luke she will be back to claim them both. Holly leaves and Tracy and Luke engage in their special brand of banter, thereby making up. Luke makes her a martini and Tracy tells him her life is in his hands.
After hearing Luke is his father, Ethan isn’t sure he should believe anything Holly says. Holly tries to explain why she never told Luke she was pregnant and why she gave Ethan up, but Ethan isn’t happy with her recounting of things. Holly gets emotional as she tells Ethan giving him up was the hardest thing she ever had to do, but she couldn’t keep him with her and drag him around from place to place. Ethan tells her his parents were wonderful, but it doesn't excuse all the lies she’s told since she found him. Holly didn’t know how Luke would react so she set the wheels in motion and left it to chance; if they were meant to connect they would. Luke tells her they could have had years together, but she kept Ethan from him. Holly doesn’t know why she played all these games, but she just wanted more. Ethan is proud to be Luke’s son, but Holly makes him sick and he walks out.
Lulu and Lucky meet up at the house and debate the Ethan issue. Lulu defends Luke’s infidelity, but Lucky only sees it as Luke betraying their mother. Lulu wonders what exactly he can’t forgive and Lucky recalls how he thought of Luke as his hero before Lulu was born. Lulu tells her brother people aren’t perfect, but you have to love them anyway because they are the only family that you have.
Holly wonders if Luke hates her too. Luke could never hate her, but this con makes no sense to him based on her sloppy work of it. Holly is just as confused and didn’t realize he’d have a life in Port Charles that he’s invested in. Luke says wanderlust aside, he is invested in his life there. Holly would love for him to come away with her, but she’ll accept it if he’d rather stay there. Luke tells her his kids are in Port Charles and he has a life there and a wife he loves. He says riding into the sunset with her is tempting and Holly tells him it’s an open invitation. Luke says goodbye for this roll of the dice and Holly looks forward to the next. Luke kisses her, as Lucky walks in and sees it. He yells at Holly to take his dad and get out of there!
At the Haunted Star, Ethan and Luke discuss Holly and the possibility that they might be related. They assume Holly is long gone and Ethan asks if Tracy will give Luke the boot. Luke doesn’t know and laments his wife fixing the DNA test. He suggests they do another one by mail so they know for sure. Ethan thinks they should just leave it alone, but Luke says he doesn't have time to squander so if he is his father, he’d like to know it and enjoy it.
