UnLucky in Love.

Nikolas insists that Helena hand Spencer over to him. She says she won't let him and Emily fritter away his heir's life. She tells Nikolas that she'll raise him as a Cassidine should be raised so that he can grow up and claim his birthright. She offers a deal. "Either you let me take him, or he dies while you watch."

In Greece, Helena realizes that she can't run from Spencer, so she tries to reason with him. She explains that Nikolas can have other children. Emily jumps in and offers to exchange herself for Spencer. Helena realizes that Emily is more expendable, so she agrees. Nikolas doesn’t waste a second to pluck his son out of Helena's arms. As soon as her hands are free she wraps her arms around Emily's neck and holds a knife to her throat. As Helena taunts her for being so innocent and naive, Emily says, "I wonder when you'll stop thinking of me as defenseless." She twists herself out of the old lady's grasp and breaks free, getting caught by the knife in the process.

Finding things.

Nikolas and Emily bust into a private ceremony in which Helena is declaring her heir's new name. Nikolas interrupts and says, "My son's name is Spencer."

Maxi's Mouth is Back!

Nikolas and Emily are on their plane heading back to Port Charles. He says that Helena is probably taken the baby to Greece, where she has people in her back pocket and can help her to pull it off. Meanwhile, we see Helena rocking a sweet Spencer on her knee while discussing possible names for him. She suggests Stavros and Mikkos, but dismisses them because the Cassidines who carried those names in the first place weren't all that fortunate. Stephan is dismissed because he wasn't a worthy Cassidine. "How about Nikolas?" Helena muses. She tells Spencer, "Your father does have qualities that are admirable. This time things are going to be different. You are Nikolas the 2nd and I am personally going to do everything I can to make sure that you are going to be a Cassidine worthy of the name!"

Fatherhood is so Fleeting.

Meanwhile we see Helena and SPENCER on a private jet. Helena tells the boy that Colleen's death will be the "touch of authenticity" that he is gone forever. She says that Nikolas will go on to have other children and Helena will rear him to be the Cassadine heir that he was born to be. But first, she tells the little guy that he needs a new name.

Rick Secures His Position.

Emily and Nikolas have located Rocky Gap on a map and it's only an hour's drive from Denver. Outside of the apartment building, the guy who took the toy to Spencer is in Helena's car receiving his payoff for giving Nikolas a bum steer. Helena says that Nikolas is so gullible that he almost deserves what's coming next.

Emily convinces Nikolas to focus on Colleen.

Nikolas frantically searches the manger but can't find the baby. He is clearly relieved when he looks over and sees Emily and Mike with the stroller. He makes his way to them and says that he's so glad she has the baby. But she doesn't. They start yelling, and everyone begins looking for the baby. Helena comes out of hiding and says that his former nanny must have abducted him. Nikolas approaches her and asks what she was done with his son. Helena denies it. Mac arrives on the scene and Nikolas wants Helena put into custody, but Emily tells Mac to find Colleen McHenry instead.

At the church, Mac tells him team to check airports for Spencer and talk to everyone on the scene. Nikolas insists that they are wasting time; Helena is the kidnapper. Helena tells Mac to send a forensics team to the Parapet at Windemere. She explains that they'll find Colleen's DNA because she was holding her captive there. Nikolas concedes that he knows about the parapet and Emily is shocked. Meanwhile, Colleen is talking to Spencer on the plane about how happy they are going to be together.

Mac has received the forensic report from the Parapet and it proves that there are indeed two sets of prints: Helena's and Colleen's. But there is no way to tell which of the two was held captive. Helena explains that she knew that Colleen was a threat to her great grandson before anyone else. She insists that Mac issue an Amber alert. Mac decides that Helena should be arrested for the kidnapping. Nikolas changes his mind and tells them to let her go.

Once freed, Helena is on the phone ordering someone to track down Colleen because this is the perfect opportunity to reclaim her great grandson.
