In her hospital room, Kristina insisted that Blaze go on tour with Miguel Morez, but Blaze refused. Blaze said she couldn't just leave Kristina when Kristina needed her. Kristina countered that Blaze was a singer, and performing was her life. Blaze argued that there would be plenty of chances to tour, but Kristina pointed out that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity Blaze shouldn't pass up.

Blaze asked why Kristina was pushing her away. Blaze explained that she had put her career first in the past, but she had found love and didn't want to lose it. "I'm not going to leave you alone to deal with this because I love you," Blaze said.

Kristina tearfully told Blaze that the baby had taken all the love Kristina had felt inside when she'd died, and Kristina felt empty. "I don't have anything left to give. Not even to you. I can't love anything or anyone right now," she said.

Blaze felt Kristina's grief was talking. Blaze wanted to see her through it, but Kristina said Blaze would eventually hate her for keeping Blaze from touring. "I'm telling you that you have to live your best life, and right now, your best life is not here with me," Kristina insisted.

Finally, Blaze agreed to go, but she reminded Kristina that she would only be a phone call away. Blaze didn't want to break things off, but Kristina said she couldn't put a timeline on her grief. In the end, Kristina and Blaze agreed to at least check in with one another.

After Blaze left, Molly stopped by to see her sister. Kristina asked how Molly was doing. Molly said that she had just been at the cemetery with T.J. She also mentioned that she had seen Ava in jail and had told Ava that Ava would pay for what she had done. Kristina told Molly that she was sure Ava wouldn't get away with anything.

Molly said she wasn't sure if the case against Ava was strong enough, but Kristina thought the photos would be all the proof they needed. When Kristina showed Molly the pictures Michael had sent her, Molly scrolled through them and zoomed in on Kristina angrily yelling at Ava while pointing her finger. Molly looked back at her sister and appeared to have a realization on her face that Kristina was more of an aggressor than Ava in the argument that had led to the fall.

When Natalia later dropped Blaze off at the airport, she told Blaze that she knew leaving Kristina was hard, but the tour would do wonders for Blaze's career. Before Blaze got out of the car, she told Natalia not to meet her in Hong Kong. "Kristina broke up with me, and now I am breaking up with you. You're fired," Blaze said.

When Brennan told Anna that he planned to stay at Metro Court on a long-term basis, she immediately knew he was the one who had deleted the evidence the FBI had against Carly. "It was you, wasn't it? I knew it," Anna said.

Brennan feigned confusion and asked Anna to be more specific, so she told him her theory about him allowing the recording of Carly to conveniently disappear. Brennan refused to confirm or deny Anna's accusation. Anna asked why Brennan would take such a risk to help Carly and what Brennan wanted from Ms. Spencer. "Don't the table and wine kinda give it away?" Brennan asked Anna rhetorically as he gestured to the wine and glasses in his room.

Anna wanted to know why Brennan had use such a romantic tactic on Carly, so Brennan explained that he enjoyed Carly's company and had no reason not to try. Anna wasn't sure if she believed Brennan's motives were innocent. "There is something big definitely in the works. Why else would the WSB open a station here?" Anna asked.

Brennan admitted that the WSB was up to something, but he didn't know what it was. "Right now, the bureau's hidden agenda remains hidden, even from me," Brennan said.

Anna found that hard to believe, so she sat down and poured herself a glass of wine to glean more information. Anna said she still believed that Brennan's arrest had just been a way for the WSB to distance itself from Pikeman. She even believed Valentin wasn't on the run but was, instead, under the WSB's protection. Anna soon got a mystery call and said she had to leave.

In the Metro Court restaurant, Carly was shocked to see John, Scott, and Ava walk in. Carly approached them and learned that Ava was ready to celebrate her freedom after being released on bail. Carly was incredulous that Ava would be celebrating anything after Kristina had nearly died and the baby she'd been carrying had died. "You just sail in here like you don't give a damn. I don't know why I'm surprised. You've never been capable of any shame," Carly said.

Ava tried defending herself, but Scott warned her not to say much else about the case until the trial. Carly also informed Ava that her room was a crime scene, so Ava would have to find somewhere else to live.

After Carly walked away, Ava, Scott, and John got a table and toasted their success in court. John had even testified that Ava wasn't a flight risk and that Ava was a witness in an FBI investigation. Carly was listening in and had a question. "If I were to contact the FBI, how surprised would they be about this ongoing investigation?" Carly asked.

Carly warned Ava that John was using her just as he had used Carly and Jason, because he only cared about sending Sonny to jail. John was shocked that Carly would question his integrity when she had just escaped RICO charges. Carly walked away, prompting Scott to also leave. Once they were alone, Ava told John not to let Carly get to him. Ava also told John that she feared her life was in danger.

John asked if Ava would ever tell him who had initially switched out Sonny's meds. Ava said she didn't know, but John had a hard time believing her. John was surprised to see Brennan walk into the restaurant and ask the hostess if she'd seen Carly. Right on cue, Carly arrived and agreed to let Brennan buy her a drink.

Back at John and Ava's table, John informed Ava that he planned to use the pharmacist as bait to trap Sonny.

Jason arrived at Sonny's penthouse with an update on Ava. Jason told Sonny that Ava had admitted that she'd known Sonny's meds had been replaced with placebos, but she wasn't the one who had replaced them. Jason said Ava had claimed to know who had done it, so Sonny asked if Jason believed her. "I haven't decided, but if she's telling the truth, that means you have another enemy," Jason said.

Sonny instructed Jason to go to the pharmacy and get the answers they were looking for. Sonny then got a call letting him know that Ava was out on bail. Sonny said he was pleased because "it makes it easier to even the score."

Sonny relayed Kristina's request to make Ava pay, but Jason gave Sonny the same response that Alexis had. Jason said Kristina was angry and wasn't thinking straight. Sonny countered that Kristina knew exactly what she was asking her father to do. Sonny worried that if Kristina had to sit through a trial, it would worsen her emotional state. "Kristina deserves peace," Sonny declared.

Jason was relieved to learn that Sonny didn't plan to make any moves yet because Sonny knew the cops were watching. Jason worried that Kristina would try to kill Ava herself, but Sonny didn't think so.

Just then, Anna arrived and warned Sonny that she would "come down on you with full force" if anything happened to Ava. Sonny said he understood. He claimed that his children's well-being was more of a priority than revenge on Ava. Once alone, Sonny told Jason he would use the photos of Ava and Kristina to help him gain full custody of Avery and send Ava to prison, where "bad things happen."

In the Quartermaine kitchen, Tracy helped Violet host a tea party for her stuffed animals. Violet commented that they were using the most beautiful tea set she had ever seen, so Tracy explained that it had once belonged to her mother, Lila. Tracy proceeded to tell Violet all about Lila, including how beautiful, down-to-earth, and nice she had been.

Tracy and Violet enjoyed their tea while discussing Lila and the definitions of the words tacky and elegant. To Tracy, Lila had always been elegant, but Tracy was only sometimes elegant. Tracy also expressed her disdain for Annabelle II and said she didn't like a dog running all around Monica's house. Violet pointed out that it was only Monica's house because Alan had given it to her.
