More Heartbreak for Carly.

Sonny goes home and finds Diane waiting for him. He asks her to drop all her other projects and file for emergency guardianship of Michael. As he explains his reasoning, Kate comes in and tells him that he can't do that to Carly. Diane leaves them to talk alone, and Sonny tells Kate about Morgan shaking Michael to wake up. He says that he has to do right by Morgan at least. Kate suggests that he take a step back and have some faith in Carly as a mother. Sonny asks why Kate would defend Carly of all people and she explains that Carly will come to the right realization - at the right time.

Let's Hear It For the Boys.

Jason has spent the night in jail. Alexis finds him in the interrogation room and says that his story about protecting Maxie holds up and all she needs to know is what Devlin said before he died. Jason won't talk without Diane, but he doesn't have to wait long because she appears in just a few minutes. As if Jason isn't in the room, Alexis and Diane argue over the legality of Jason's actions in the name of protecting Maxie. Alexis turns to Jason and promises that she will go after Michael's shooter if only he'll tell her what Devlin said. She says that she doesn't want Morgan and Kristina to be the next in line and then leaves. Once alone with her client, Diane asks Jason if Devlin said anything and Jason says, "Not anything you need to know." She promises to get him out in about fifteen minutes and apologizes that she wasn't able to do so last night because she was otherwise engaged. She asks Jason not to mention it to Sonny and he says that one night in lockup is nothing compared to what Michael is facing.

One Less Evil Citizen in Port Charles.

Alexis is at the Metro Court bar acting as if she's not waiting for Jerry. He arrives right on time, plucks her blackberry from her hands and then kisses her. "Pot Meet Kettle!" Diane jumps up from behind the bar and asks who has the weakness for a bad boy now? She storms off jubilant over her bust and Alexis tries to explain to Jerry how strange her friend is. Jerry points out that her friend is sleeping with Sonny's body guard and Alexis is stunned that he knows that. He simply points to the other side of the dining room and reveals Diane and Max making out. Alexis makes her way over and tells Diane she's making a fool of herself. Diane claims that she and Max were simply talking about the Dodgers and points out that Alexis is canoodling with the Metro Court hostage taker. Alexis abruptly returns to her table with Jerry, and Diane and Max quickly leave to go take a room upstairs. Her phone rings, but she decides to let it ring. Alexis, however, answers hers and finds out that Jason killed Ian Devlin.

Harsh Realities.

Over at Sonny's house, Diane informs Sonny about Claudia's "admission" on the stand that she spent the night with Jason. Sonny tells Jason that he will regret it, but he denies any such thing. Diane chastises Sonny for trying to control everyone's love life and then leaves. Then Jason explains what really happened with Claudia and Sonny says that she isn't to be trusted. Sonny walks Jason out and they find Diane and Max making out while they still can before Max gets shipped away. Sonny tells her to have an alibi ready for him in case things get ugly and maybe Max can stay put. Diane calls it blackmail, but smiles at her beau after Sonny passes through.

Beginnings.

Claudia has taken the stand in her father's hearing. Alexis is trying to get Claudia to admit that her father has threatened her life, but Claudia isn't cooperating. When asked, she says that her father didn't tamper with her brakes, she just had a little car trouble that's all. Alexis continues to question her whereabouts last night and Claudia sheepishly admits that she had a date with Jason! Diane takes over the questioning because Alexis is flustered at her own witness's change of direction. Claudia doesn't answer Diane's questions either and merely makes a point of saying that her daddy loves her.

Sonny and Max are working at Sonny's house, when Jason comes in and announces that AZ has been released. Before he can react, Diane comes in and Sonny tells her that he is NOT happy with her performance. He reiterates his fear that she is too busy panting over his bodyguard and as a result is off her game. Diane objects, but he announces that he's sending Max to Puerto Rico permanently. Max "mans up" and tells Sonny not to interfere in his personal life ever again! (For some reason, Sonny seems to take it.) Next Diane pipes up and tells Sonny that he should be telling Jason not to date Claudia Zacchara.

Nuts or Not Nuts, That is the Question.

Diane finds Alexis in the courtroom and offers her services as 2nd chair in hopes of keeping Anthony behind bars. Alexis says that she is tainted by her association with Sonny, but Diane argues that Ric has an entire medical team to attest to AZ's newfound sanity. Alexis won't budge, so Diane sits behind her and says she'll be ready to jump in when she needs her.

Back at the courthouse, the hearing is about to get underway. Spinelli shows up and tells Diane that he is the "eyes and ears" of Sonny and Stone Cold. Anthony is wheeled in and sizes up his offspring who have seated themselves on the D.A.'s side. When the judge appears, Alexis announces that Diane Miller will be 2nd chair. After Trevor and Ric have had their say, Spinelli jumps up and objects prematurely. He proceeds to list all of AZ's crimes as only he can do and is thus escorted out of the courtroom. Alexis makes her case of how dangerous AZ is and then Ric speaks about his client's illness at the time of his crimes. (An illness that he has now recovered from by the way!) Alexis calls Claudia to the stand, who tells the court that her father sent her out of the country years ago. Alexis tries to establish Claudia's opinion as to whether her father is sane or not and then asks if AZ has ever threatened her life. Claudia glares at her father and doesn't speak.

Shortest Casino Opening in History?

The Haunted Star is swinging when Diane comes in looking for Max. Luke greets her and she waits at the roulette table. Next it's Lucky and Sam who arrive and Luke stakes them some chips. Nik and Nadine come in a little later and she tells him to pay attention and learn from her. He scoffs and says that it's all in the odds and he'll teach her later back at Wyndemere. Johnny shows up to talk business with Luke. After Luke gets Tracy out of his hair he tells his partner that he received the first deposit and will "clean it up" right away. Johnny seems satisfied.

The Morgue Gets a New Body.

Max has asked Diane to meet him for a drink at the Metro Court. When she arrives, he acts as if it was an accidental meeting. Diane doesn't want to give in to Sonny's demands and urges Max not to either! She compliments him for his sexuality (and flexibility) but tells him that he has to "man up" when it comes to his boss. As she talks to him, her foot is getting playful until Max finally asks for the check.
