Sonny's Got His Hands Full!

The judge tells Scotty that he is the new guardian for Laura, stunning Luke, Lucky and Lulu. He tells Scott to make provisions for any type of familial visitation. Unable to take it, Lucky bursts out that Laura wouldn't want Scott in any part of her life! Alexis objects, telling the judge that taking away Nikolas' guardianship is wrong. "My decision stands," the judge says. Alexis tells him she will appeal. After the court is adjourned, Scott tells them that he is only acting in Laura's best interests. In the hall, Nikolas apologizes for not being able to stop Scott. Bobbie tells them things will be fine, that Laura will never know. Luke isn't so sure; he thanks Nikolas for trying to stop Scott. Alexis comes over, promising to appeal the judge's order. She asks them all to set up visitation before they leave and then takes off. Everyone leaves except Lulu and Luke, who are both in a daze. Angry, Lulu rages about the judge and Scott. Luke tells her to be strong, not to fold. Lulu realizes that what matters is that Laura's wishes be honored - and that includes having Luke in her life. "He's not going to get away with this," Luke promises and walks away.

Who Does Liz Love?

Lucky and Elizabeth argue over how Jason was arrested. "You didn't have to arrest Jason in front of me and Jake. You wanted to," she says! He tries to explain that Ric made him be a part of the arrest but Liz doesn't believe him. She wants to know why he didn't just tell her about the possibility of an arrest. He argues that he didn't realize that she would be at Sonny and Jason's. He slams out of the house. Emily arrives moments later. Liz fills her in on Jason's arrest. Em tells her to have faith but when Liz tells her how the arrest went down, she sympathizes with Liz. Elizabeth admits that she is worried about what might happen to Jason. "I care about him," she says. Emily wonders if Liz is still in love with Jason; the question makes Elizabeth think. She tells Emily that she loves Lucky - and only Lucky! But, she admits that she could have handled things differently, because she does have feelings for Jason. Lucky returns home with flowers. Liz apologizes to him for reacting the way she did. Lucky apologizes, too, telling her that he knows he is overprotective and asking her to forgive him. She tells him that he is still her hero. They kiss!

Lucky Arrests Jason.

Patrick and Robin are at work and a student nurse dreamily compliments his job in surgery yesterday. After she walks away on cloud nine, Robin chastises him for flirting. Later, he asks Emily if she thinks it's unacceptable when he's pleasant to other women. Emily says that his idea of being pleasant is flirting and it would drive her insane if she was Robin. Just then, Scott finds Patrick and wants to know about his experiences as Laura's doctor during her recovery. Patrick doesn't answer the question, but says that taking Laura away from Luke is highly detrimental to her welfare and he'll gladly tell that to the judge. Robin joins them and Scott asks what the chances are of finding another drug to help Laura. She says that she is in constant touch with the doctors in Switzerland and if there is every any news, she will go directly to Laura's family. Only.

"Luke Raped Laura."

The judge tells everyone in the court room that he wants to take his time to consider the case carefully. In the meantime, Laura will remain a ward of the court. As they all stand to leave, Leslie tells Scott that he must be so proud of the way he finally got Luke and devastated Lulu in the process. She tells him that she will never forgive him and then leaves. Lainey tells Emily that when Lulu's ready, she should come talk to her and suggests that Nikolas could use help with anger management. Nikolas thanks Alexis for trying to help and then apologizes the Luke. Luke sadly tells him that he just told the truth. He says that Scott's been waiting 25 years to play the victimized and dumped husband and today he got his chance. Bobbie approaches Scott and says that since Laura isn't able to do it herself, she will - and then she smacks him in the face! Eventually only Luke and Tracy remain in the courtroom. She tells him that he needs to go find his daughter and help put her back together.

Laura's Custody Hearing Begins.

Nikolas, Emily, Liz and Lucky are at Kelly's talking about the hearing. They are concerned that Lulu may finally learn about Laura's rape. Nikolas says that the record is sealed so the only place that she would hear about it is in the courtroom. Liz says that she could ask Lulu to watch Jake today instead and they all agree that would work - for one day at least. Over at another table, Amelia and Sam are having coffee. Sam says that she has an idea of how she can get Jason to tell her the truth about his baby. She is planning a picnic in the park.

Jerry is Free. For Now.

At the Metro Court, Mac wants to arrest Jerry for being "Mr. Craig", but Lady Jane says that his name is Jerry Jacks. Mac is livid as he accuses Jerry of shooting his niece and allowing Alan Quartermaine to suffer irreparable heart damage. Jerry continues to deny knowing anything about this James Craig person. He contends that he only came back to Port Charles to surprise his mother and brother. Emily, Nikolas and Alexis are holding their breath waiting to see what unfolds. Mac asks Jax if this is his brother or not and finally Jax says that he's sure his brother had nothing to do with the tragedy at the Metro Court. Alexis speaks up and says that she will represent Jax's brother in this matter. "Do you really want to defend a man who would blow up his own brother's hotel?" Mac asks Alexis. Emily speaks up and says that this man is certainly not James Craig. Mac asks Nikolas and he quietly says that Emily is right. Alexis tells Mac that he can't place a wrongful arrest and should let her client go. Ric arrives and Mac asks if he recognizes Jerry's voice from his negotiations on the phone that night. Ric can't be sure. Ric suggests that they do a DNA testing in order to be sure.

Liz wipes a tear away from her eye before she enters her home to find Lucky and Cam playing hockey on the rug. Lucky can see that she's been crying and she brushes it off to hormones. Soon Emily and Nikolas drop because they want to tell Lucky and Liz something. They say that Jax's brother Jerry is back in town and he looks just like James Craig. Elizabeth freaks out at the memory of the man who terrorized her when she was pregnant and Lucky asks Nikolas what he thinks. Nikolas says that if he really thought Jerry Jacks was Mr. Craig, he'd be dead. Liz and Lucky thank them from coming by with the news, and then they leave. After he closes the door, Lucky tells Liz to be extra careful until they are absolutely sure who Jerry Jacks is. He leaves to call Mac, and Liz whispers to Jake how lucky they are that Jason saved them in the Metro Court.

Mac Cuffs Jerry.

Jax is standing in the study at Wyndemere and taking Nikolas's outrage like a man. Emily looks on quietly. Nikolas finally calms down and asks Jax how he would rationalize Jerry's actions if Carly was the one who was shot? Emily says that what Jerry did to everyone, including her father, was awful, but he's a grown man and Jax isn't to blame. She asks Jax what he wants to do. Jax says that he wants to prevent Jerry from doing any more harm.

Nikolas and Emily have continued their conversation about how to handle Jerry and Emily wants Nikolas to let Jax handle it. Alexis arrives and says that fighting to the finish isn't the answer. Nikolas asks if her newfound softness on Mr. Craig has something to do with her having a "thing" for him. Alexis denies having anything for the psychopath, but she says that he was nice to her when she needed him. Nikolas yells at her and Alexis says that she's just praying that Jax will keep Jerry under control.

Jerry has called Jax, Alexis, Nicolas and Emily to meet him at the Metro Court. Once they're all gathered, a freshly combed Jerry comes him and enthusiastically greets his brother as if he hasn't seen him in years. Jax quietly asks him what he's up to and Jerry says, "Let's see how long it takes for your staff to call the police."
