Confused, Kristina says, “It was supposed to be Ava!” He asks what she means. Kristina says she cut Ava’s brake lines, and it was her car! She knows it was Ava’s car.

Cody and Molly Make Small Talk
At Charlie’s, Molly runs into Cody and wonders if he should be here, given that the last time he was there, he got arrested. Cody says Mac wanted to meet him here, and he thinks it’s sort of a test to see if he can behave like a human in public. He also needs to apologize to Lucky for punching him last time.
Molly knows Cody stepped in and talked to her dad, and her parents have called a truce. She calls him a miracle worker and says perhaps he’s a good guy. She gives him her card and tells him to consider it a get-out-of-jail card for when he gets in trouble next.
Mac arrives and notes Cody is in a bar and not fighting, so he’s proud of him. Mac and Cody grab a table, and Cody explains how he knows Molly and how they became friendly over her parents’ fighting.
Kristina finally appears behind the bar, and Molly is glad to see her. Kristina says she’s been busy with inventory, but she can hang out for a second.

Tracy Stands Her Ground
At the Quartermaine crypt, Anna places Emma under arrest and takes her away. The sheriff attempts to arrest Tracy, who warns him not to touch her. Yuri stands with Tracy, and Trina continues filming what is happening.
Tracy explains to Trina’s livestream that this crypt is the resting place of her mother, father, brother, and other family members. She goes on to say for fifty years her family has helped to keep General Hospital open and serving Port Charles. Bulldozing this crypt is nothing but Congressman Cutthroat Cain’s personal vendetta against her, and he’s been assisted by Councilman Boyle. Trina posts the speech, but Ezra says their time is up, and nobody is coming to help a rich old lady save her land. The sheriffs arrest Yuri and try to carry Tracy off.
Diane arrives with a cease-and-desist order and demands Tracy be unhanded. Ezra wonders whose authority this comes from, and Diane says, “From Dr. Monica Quartermaine.” Ezra looks it over and says it’s legit, and asks how Monica did this. Diane explains Monica struck a deal with the Port Charles Land Trust, and the Quartermaines donated another piece of land to the trust to keep the crypt. Gio and Emma’s plan worked. Tracy orders Ezra off her property.
Diane tells Tracy that Monica wanted her to tell her to come to her first next time there is trouble. Diane heads off, and Gio asks what they’ll do about Emma. Tracy says she’ll get her released, so Gio decides to accompany her to the station. Tracy thanks Trina for her part in helping protect her family.
Later, Kai shows up to see Trina and says her livestream was pretty edgy.
Drew Gets Bad News
Ezra drops by Drew’s office, and the congressman hopes the crypt is gone. Ezra says it’s not, and a deal was struck with the Port Charles Land Trust. Not only that, he is now legally obligated to return to using the Cain name. Drew asks how Tracy managed to pull this off? Ezra tells him she didn’t, Monica did.
Anna’s Disappointed in Emma
Anna takes Emma to the station, and in her office, she doesn’t know if she recognizes her granddaughter anymore. Emma says she’s grown up, a college student, and supposed to be figuring out who she is. She hates inequality and unfairness and wants to do something good in this world, which includes fighting for things she believes in. Anna says that is fine, but the Quartermaine crypt is not her fight to take on.
Anna tells Emma she is young and thinks she can save everyone, but that’s not the case, especially if she puts her own future at risk. Emma cries that she’s trivializing her involvement tonight, and she was at that crypt for her mom. Anna doesn’t understand. Emma says her mom always tells her about how she was sick as a baby, poisoned, and Edward Quartermaine was too. He chose to save her by letting her have the last dose of the serum to cure her. She would be d.e.a.d if not for Edward. Anna understands now.
Emma says it’s not just Edward, as Alan told Mom she was HIV+, and he stood by her mom’s side when she didn’t have anyone to count on. Anna says not being there for Robin is one of her biggest regrets. Emma says Edward and Alan saved her and Mom’s lives, so she couldn’t watch their final resting places be destroyed.
Anna says that even though her cause was noble, they still had to deal with her arrest. Anna assumes she’ll just get a slap on the wrist. Mac shows up and needs to have a word with Anna. They step out, and Anna explains better now why Emma was protesting today. She may be trouble, but she’s a good kind of trouble. Mac isn’t sure she’ll agree when she reads this and hands her a folder.
Anna heads back in to see Emma and is not happy. Tracy arrives with Gio and tells Emma they won and she’s here to pay all Emma’s legal fees. Anna says that, unfortunately, Emma will have to spend the night in jail and go before the judge in the morning. It seems Emma has several priors. Emma looks at Gio, who appears stunned.
Jason and Sonny Don’t Get Answers
In Toronto, Jason and Sonny are about to shoot the hitman, who won’t give them answers, but he quickly tells them to wait. He tells them to open his desk drawer as all his contact information with the person who hired him is there. When Sonny turns to open the drawer, the guy tries to run. Jason takes him down, and he ends up d.e.a.d. Sonny tells Jason to grab laptops, cell phones, and anything else that could help them.
Sonny and Jason fly back home. Sonny says Silenski was going to d.i.e one way or another, and his d.e.a.t.h is a warning to whoever hired him. Jason worries they’ll try again, and Sonny agrees there is still a real threat to him. He says Brick will find something in Silenski’s devices, and until then, they can’t show any weaknesses. Jason argues delaying his surgery is a bad idea. Sonny says he will give Brick a little time before he schedules his surgery, and he won’t let anyone hurt his family.
