Love Hurts.

"1 hour earlier. 4 a.m."

Nikolas's voice says, "You can love someone forever, yet lose them in a heartbeat." Jason has come across Nikolas yelling at Emily in a corridor. The two men are fighting to the finish and Emily gets knocked down in the process. She gets up slowly as Jason beats Nikolas just enough so he will be temporarily out of commission. Then, he quickly ties him up. When Nikolas wakes up, he's delirious as he asks Emily if he hurt her. Em says that he didn't mean to. Nik tells Jason to take Emily away so that he can't hurt her again. He is terrified as Emily kisses him and then is taken away by her brother.

Jason brings Emily to the stables to be with Liz. Em begs him to keep Nikolas safe and he says that he will be once he finds Anthony Zacchara. He leaves, and Emily explains what's happened with Nik to Liz. "I can't stand the thought of him being alone, anything can happen," Em says. Liz asks Em if she'd like a distraction, and then tells her that Jason told Lucky that he is Jake's father. Em isn't surprised, and asks how Lucky took it. Liz says that he won't forgive her any time soon. The person she is really mad at is Sam. Em reminds Liz that it's Lucky's choice if he turns to Sam now. Liz promptly tells Em that Sam watched Jake get kidnapped and then hired two thugs to threaten her and her boys in the park. Em is stunned. Liz asks Em if she hates her for keeping this from her for so long. Em assures her that she loves her and is her best friend! Em asks what's next for her and Jason, and Liz says that they need to make it through the night and go from there. Em decides that she needs to go be with the man she loves. She says, "The sun's going to be up in a few hours. Everything's going to be back to normal! Nikolas will be treated and get well, and then you and I will go sit at Jake's. We'll drink tequila and make wedding plans." The two women are smiling through their tears as Em asks Liz to be her maid of honor.

After they've both headed off in different directions, Nikolas steps out from the shadows. He sees a white mask on the floor and bends down to touch it. As he does, he remembers Emily hours earlier as she was getting dressed. Just then, Emily rushes in and they give each other a hungry embrace. He tells her that HE is the one that she needs to be afraid of! He whispers a menacing message, "You can't stay here, you have to leave, do you understand me?" Emily tearfully assures him that he would never hurt her. Her last word is "Nikolas!" Unless you count the gurgling sound she makes right before her body hits the ground.

Leyla!

Em is wandering the halls looking for Nik, who is wandering the halls looking for her. Instead, Jason finds her. She quickly tells him that Nik's blackouts are getting worse, so she locked him in the wine cellar, only now he's gone! Jason wants to take her to the stables, but Em won't leave without Nikolas. Jason tells her how dangerous it is for her in this house and Em jerks her arm away from him. Nik jumps up behind Jason and takes him down as Emily shrieks for him to stop.

Lucky (Finally!) Learns the Truth.

Emily has locked Nikolas in the wine cellar - at his request. Through the heavy wooden door he tells her that she did the right thing. Soon, they both hear a noise and she tells him that she's fine, but feels like she should go to the north parlor with the others. Nik tells her that he should come out and take care of her, and then begs her to let him out. First he's calm, but then he starts screaming and banging on the door. Finally Emily tears herself away from the door and leaves.

Scott and Logan are able to get Luke back to the room where Tracy is and she thinks he's drunk. Emily appears and when she hears of Luke's condition, asks Tracy if she happens to have Edward's heart meds in her purse. Tracy says that she does! Scott goes to the main staircase to see where her purse landed after her fall. Emily is in ER mode and tells Logan to go look for the portable defibrillator.

Emily and Tracy are talking to Luke. Em tells him that he needs to lie still or he could trigger another heart attack. Scott comes back in with Tracy's purse. They put a nitro pill under Luke's tongue and Tracy says that he will not make her a widow! Scott returns with the defib and seems mad that Luke's heart is back to a normal rhythm and doesn't get a shock. Em makes Logan and Scott leave the room so Luke won't be upset and then Em tells Tracy she needs to leave, too. Outside the door, Scott tells Logan that he wouldn’t know what to do with himself if he didn't have Luke to despise and insult.

Emily returns to check on Nikolas and finds the wine cellar empty.

Miss McCall's Revenge.

Meanwhile in another room, AZ is strangling Nik as Emily tries to get a clear shot of him with a gun. Finally, Johnny rushes in and pulls AZ away from Nik and begs him to come home with him. AZ fires a shot and tells his son that the next bullet will go right between his eyes, then turns and leaves the room. Nik is struggling to get some breath, but when he does, he says, "What the hell was that?" Maxi rushes into the room and asks Nik how to get back to the ballroom. She explains that AZ just tried to force her to play Russian roulette! Then she says that she saw Lucky in the hallway, but they went different ways. Nik and Emily are thrilled to hear that Lucky's okay, and they tell Maxi that no one is in the ballroom anymore. They've all moved to the parlor near the north entrance, and Johnny will take her there.

Em and Nik are alone again as he recovers from his fight with AZ. Emily comforts him by talking about a trip to Italy so that they can regroup when this is all over. He says that he just wants to be happy with her. He is tearful as he says that the blackouts are more frequent and worsening. He tells her that she is too good to him, but Emily says that she's just selfish that's all. Nik says that all she's ever done is love him and it has brought him back from his evil Cassadine roots more times than he can count. He tells her that she needs to protect herself from him. Emily says that she trusts him and that he will never hurt her. She says that she'd like them to hide out together alone until this whole nightmare is over. Nik tells her that he has to go help his guests! He ends up on top of her screaming that she needs to trust him. He pulls himself out of it and is horrified at his behavior. Emily promises to get him help and he says that he needs her to protect herself…from him. Right now.
