Monday

At Crimson, Nina (Cynthia Watros) wasn’t listening to anything Maxie (Kristen Storms) was saying. “I had the best afternoon and I can’t stop thinking about it, ” Nina told Maxie. Willow (Katelyn MacMuellen) told Michael (Chad Duell) how she and Wiley ran into Nina at The Metro Court Pool. Dex (Evan Hofer) smiled at Josslyn (Eden McCoy). Drew (Cameron Mathison) told Curtis (Donnell Turner) he was thinking about running for Congress. Chase (Josh Swickward) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) told Tracy (Jane Eliott) they needed her help with Finn (Michael Easton). Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) walked in on Finn (Michael Easton) with another woman. “Hey, what are you doing here?” a drunken Finn asked. “You’re not the wife are you?” The woman asked. “No, just the ex-girlfriend,” Elizabeth answered angrily. Josslyn told Dex she had a cool day and hoped the rest of the summer was the same. “Ready for dinner?” Dex asked Josslyn, who said she just needed to shower and then she was all his. Nina told Maxie it was worth dancing with the devil (Drew) if she got to spend time with her daughter. Drew told Curtis he needed his opinion about running for Congress. “Because if I do this it’s going to affect Aurora and you. Willow told Michael she just wanted to be up front with him. “Full disclosure” Willow said. Michael asked what changed that has made her feel suddenly safe being around Nina. Chase and Brook Lynn told Tracy about Finn’s drinking. “Finn is drinking on purpose and he doesn’t want us to know about it,” Chase told Tracy. Elizabeth told the woman (Barb) to go home and sleep it off. “You’ve got some nerve” Barb said angrily then left. Finn angrily asked Elizabeth where she’s been, accusing her of abandoning him and not wanting to be around him when he wasn’t perfect. Willow told Michael how Nina seemed to be respecting boundaries and not trying so hard the way she used to. “I know it sounds crazy. Nina’s changed and it’s because of Drew.” Nina told Maxie how it was a turn on watching Drew with kids. Drew told Curtis that he’s going to have to be in charge of launching the wellness campaign while he focuses on running for Congress. Curtis told Drew he thought he should do it because he has integrity and would fight for what he believed in. Drew told Curtis he would make the announcement soon. After Curtis left, Drew received a text from Nina. Chase and Brook Lynn how they needed to keep Violet (Jophelle Love) away from Finn’s destructive behavior. Tracy reminded Finn had sole custody and wouldn’t take well to them wanting to get Violet away from him. Finn cried and tried to apologize. Elizabeth said she just wanted him to get the help he needed, but they were done. Finn grabbed her arm. Jason (Steve Burton) and said “Let her go.” When Dex and Josslyn arrived, Michael asked them to join him and Willow. But Willow said they probably wanted to be alone. After they left, she commented that it was good to see Dex and Josslyn together. Willow told Michael if Drew could forgive Nina, maybe she should put aside her anger as well. “Nina, what the hell is your problem?” Drew asked, interrupting Nina and Maxie. Chase and Brook Lynn told Tracy about their plan to have Violet stay with the Quartermaines for a while so they could convince Finn to go into rehab. Tracy told Chase that Finn may disappoint him. Finn asked Elizabeth whether she called Jason. He said he stood by Elizabeth through everything so if she wanted to go, leave her keys. Elizabeth put the keys in a glass. “Don’t go near her” Jason ordered as he and Elizabeth left. Jason and Elizabeth took off their shoes and put their feet in the water at The Metro Court Pool. Tracy told Chase in the condition Finn is in, he’ll justify his addiction. Elizabeth told Jason how she wanted to support Finn through the difficult time of Gregory’s passing. Josslyn apologized again for being too hard on Dex when they broke off. Willow told Michael how Drew was choosing the future over the past and she should do the same. After Maxie left, Drew and Nina bickered. Jason told Elizabeth that Jake (Hudson West) called him. “He was so worried about you that he actually reached out to me for help. That’s how much your son loves you” Jason told Elizabeth. “I can see myself dating a cop,” Josslyn told Dex. Willow told Michael she thinks Drew could see good in Nina, despite all she’s done. Willow told Michael how it felt good to have everything out in the opening with Nina. Despite saying they could stand each other, Drew and Nina again gave into passion. Jason told Elizabeth he’d do whatever he could to make up the time he lost with Jake. Tracy told Chase he had her full support. Chase said they’d tell Chase tomorrow before Violet got home. “Let’s just hope he can hear you,” Tracy said. Finn thought about moments in his relationship with Elizabeth.

Tuesday

“What is so important that I had to cancel a meeting to come down here?” Anna (Finola Hughes) asked Jack (Charles Mesure), who told her he wanted to give her a heads up before he was transferred back to Pentonville. John (Adam Harrington) entered and asked what the police commissioner and former head of the WSB possibly had to discuss. Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) told Sam (Kelly Monaco) he cracked through the FBI’s firewall but was no closer to finding out what they had on Jason (Steve Burton). Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) left a voicemail for Chase (Josh Swickward). Aiden asked his mother who’s going on. Chase and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) entered Finn’s (Michael Easton) apartment and found the place in scrambles and an open bottle. Chase called out for Finn. When he entered the room, Finn asked what brought them by. Spinelli told Sam he couldn’t access the FBI’s file without an agent’s credentials. Sam had a plan to get Agent Cates’ access. Anna told John that Brennan called her there. After John left, Jack told Anna that Agent Cates now believed she was the head of Pikeman. Elizabeth told Aiden and Jake (Hudson West) she and Finn broke up. Although he didn’t care whether he ever saw Finn again, “What about Violet?” Jake asked Elizabeth. Finn told Chase and Brook Lynn he and Elizabeth broke up. Chase and Brook Lynn told him they were moving into the Quartermaines for a while and asked whether Violet could come to stay too as there will be kids around for the summer. “You think I don’t know what you’re doing…there’s no way you’re taking my daughter away from me” Finn said. “Violet is still your cousin and that will never change” Elizabeth said then questioned Jake how he saw Finn coming out a part far away from where he said he was going to be. After Finn told them they weren’t taking Violet, Chase asked Brook Lynn to leave so he could talk with his brother alone. Finn told Chase he should have left too. Sam donned a disguise and pretended to fall and John caught her. Anna told John she wasn’t worried because she had nothing to find. John told Anna that Agent Cates was a true believer who would rather wreck himself than give up his beliefs. Anna said she knew people like that. Sam pretended her ankle was hurt and John carried her to a lounge. He asked for an ice bucket. While he helped her wrap and put ice on her ankle, a disguised Spinelli lifted John’s wallet. John told Sam she should keep the ice on her ankle for about twenty minutes. Sam said she could do that but it would get lonely. Chase told Finn if he had a problem. Elizabeth told Jake she appreciates her telling her about seeing Finn at the bar and also that he called his dad. Brook Lynn told Lois (Rena Sofer) that “Finn is in a full blown alcoholic spiral.” Spinelli scanned Agent Cates’ FBI badge. Sam introduced herself and told him she’d been divorced for six years and how she thought her ex-husband was dead but then he turned up alive. John told her how his ex-wife died and how he often wondered how his life would be if she hadn’t and they were still together. “I wonder what time it is. Maybe I should get my phone” John said. Spinelli puts John’s phone back into his pocket and zips it up. He gave Sam the thumbs up. Sam told John it was good getting to know him. Anna asked John if he sold out to Pikeman. “The irony isn’t lost on me that Agent Cates is trying to take me down for something you actually did” Anna told Jack. Lois talked about her uncles’ drinking problems. “I don’t want that for Finn. I just pray that Chase can get through to his brother” Brook Lynn told Lois, vowing to protect Violet even if it was from her father. Chase told Finn he didn’t have to do this alone. “I just lost my dad, I can’t take losing my brother too” Chase told Finn. Aiden was glad Jake was talking to his dad again. Elizabeth told Jake it meant a lot to his dad that he called, adding Jake wasn’t off the hook for going to a bar. Spinelli told Sam because of all the files the FBI stores, it could be at least a month before he found out what Agent Cates was holding over Jason (Steve Burton). Anna asked Jack whether he would have killed her if she hadn’t arrested him first. “I’ve never been good at hypotheticals,” Jack answered. Anna left his hospital room. Brook Lynn vowed she and Chase would get through what life threw at them. “Violet is the only good thing in my life and I won’t let you and Brook Lynn steal my daughter from me” Finn vowed and ordered his brother to leave. But after Chase was gone, Finn broke down and cried.

Wednesday

At The Metro Court Pool, Cody (Josh Kelly) put suntan lotion on Sasha’s (Sofia Mattsson) back. Carly (Laura Wright) introduced herself to Gio (Giovanni Mazzei). Alexis (Nancy Grahan) told Laura (Genie Francis) that Adrian DeWitt was responsible for the clickbait article about Laura’s interest in having Heather Webber’s (Alley Mills) case reopened. Laura gave Alexis a file about Heather to review. Carly stopped talking with Gio and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) when Jason (Steve Burton) entered The Metro Court Pool. She told him she was texting him because she was afraid he’d leave again. Molly (Kristen Vaganos) admitted to TJ (Taj Bellows) she’s been keeping something from him and felt badly about it. Sonny (Maurice Benard) arrived at his daughter’s apartment to speak with Kristina (Kate Mansi). He asked Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez) to stay, saying she needed to hear this. Sonny told Kristina what she saw the night of the wedding was ugly and unacceptable and not the way a father should act. He thanked Blaze for supporting Kristina that night. Jason told Carly he hadn’t called her back because Jake (Hudson West) called him because Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) had a situation and needed him. Josslyn told Gio how Jason was a super VIP and anything he uses should be comp. Alexis told Laura although there could be a case there for Heather but reminded she’s no longer a lawyer. Cody and Sasha enjoyed their time at the pool. Cody called out for Gio to get them drinks. Gio told Sasha he was happy to serve her to thank her for all the great meals she’s been making. After Molly told him what happened between Sonny and Kristina at the wedding, TJ said he was done and Kristina had to stay away from her father until after their baby was born. Sonny told Kristina he needed her in his life. Kristina asked whether he meant it when he said he’d kill Dex and Jason. Sonny told Kristina he struck a truce with Dex. He told her nothing was more important than her and even if she wanted nothing to do with him, he’d always be her father. Sonny gave her a gift for the baby: A plush Fantasia Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey Mouse. Kristina commented about having one when she was little. TJ angrily told Molly if they hired a surrogate like he wanted, Kristina wouldn’t be in control. She thanked her father for the memory then Sonny left. Alexis told Laura the outcome of the case could be unpredictable. Seeing a bruise he got from protecting James, Sasha reminded Cody how happy Mac (John J. York) would be if he found out he was his son. Sonny approached Jason and Carly and asked whether Jason thought he tried to have him killed. Kristina told Blaze the man who left the apartment was the father she’d always known so now she’s conflicted. TJ and Molly argued about each other agreeing to let Kristina be their surrogate. Molly felt TJ was blaming her for wanting a biological connection to their child. She told TJ if they didn’t leave Kristina alone until after she’d given birth she could decide to keep the baby for herself. Kristina told Blaze she knew her dad loves her. With a case like Heather’s, Alexis commented to Laura this was one time she was glad she wasn’t a lawyer. Jason admitted to Sonny at first he thought he ordered the hit. He added he never would have given him up. Cody told Sasha he wasn’t brave enough to come clean to Mac. “It’s really hard to maintain a lie forever and there’s something really freeing about telling the truth,” Sasha told Cody. Alexis told Laura that the old Alexis would say “Let the law take its course.” Alexis left Trina (Tabayana Ali). “I think I know what you’re here to see me about,” Laura said. “I don’t think you do,” Trina said. Blaze told Kristina sometimes she wished the baby she was carrying was theirs. Sonny told Jason he wished he could trust him. “But I can’t,” Sonny said then left The Metro Court Pool area.

Thursday

Tracy (Jane Eliott) joined Stella (Vernee Watson) and sat on Gregory’s (Gregory Harrison) bench in the park. Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez) made Kristina (Kate Mansi) freshly popped popcorn and raspberry ice tea. They talked about having kids and a house with three bedrooms and a big backyard. Alexis (Nancy Grahan) berated Adrian DeWitt for turning The Invader into clickbait. Trina (Tabayana Ali) asked Laura (Genie Francis) about giving up the idea of reopening Heather’s (Alley Mills) case. “I don’t know this guy” Heather said when she saw Curtis (Donnell Turner) had come to visit her. “Maybe not…but I know you,” Curtis said. Stella said the spot was peaceful. She and Tracy talked about Gregory and the memorial service. Kristina told Blaze how Alexis was a great grandmother. She commented Blaze’s mother would be a great grandmother too because she thinks their baby would mellow her out. A tearful Molly (Kristen Vaganos) arrived. Curtis introduced himself “Curtis Ashford. I’m Trina Robinson’s father…do you know her?’ Trina told Laura because she knew her and she was Ace and Spencer’s (Nicholas Chavez) she had to hear it from her herself. Trina asked Laura if Heather’s medical condition was known at the time of her trial, would she want Heather to go free? Adrian asked Alexis whether The Invader or Laura Collins knew more about what they needed. Diane entered Alexis’ office. Molly told Blaze and Kristina she and TJ (Taj Bellows) had a big blowup fight. Adrian refused to tell Diane where he got his information for the story. After DeWitt left the office, Diane noticed the official file on Alexis’ desk and asked whether she’s going to help Heather get her freedom. Tracy admitted she wished she knew Gregory sooner. Molly talked about how she and TJ may be growing apart. Kevin (Jon Lindstrom) entered his wife’s office and told Trina how The Invader previewed she was giving an interview. Trina assured she’d never give any interview to The Invader. Before leaving, Trina asked Kevin’s expert opinion if the cobalt poisoning made Heather a killer. Heather apologized to Curtis, who asked what her plans had been for his precious daughter. Alexis reminded Diane of the case of New York vs. Robert Frank. Curtis accused Heather of rehearsing what she’ll say if her case was reopened. “Why would my case be reopened?” Heather asked Curtis. Kevin told Trina now that the poison hip has been removed they’d have to wait and see about Heather. Kristina told Blaze how TJ was having buyer’s remorse because he viewed her as a flake. Before leaving, Molly assured her and Kristina would be fine. Diane told Alexis if her would-be murderer was set free she’d have no one to blame but herself. Curtis told Heather that Laura Collins was the one pushing for her case to be reopened. Stella told Tracy about the love of her life Marcus and how she broke their engagement to help raise her nephews. Heather told Curtis she remembered all of it and she was exactly where she belonged. “Thank you for your time. You’ve given me a lot to think about. I won’t be back” Curtis told Heather. Laura told Kevin she didn’t think Heather was completely innocent but thought she deserved to get a fair hearing. Alexis told Diane if her goal was to keep Heather in jail she should hope no one stumbled on her brilliant defense that helped save her son. Kristina questioned what her rights and responsibilities to the baby would be if TJ and Molly broke up.

Friday

Trina (Tabyana Ali) introduced Ava (Maura West) to Gio (Giovannia Mazzei), who told her his Uncle Sonny (Maurice Benard) would have paid for his tuition if he hadn’t gotten a full scholarship. Congressman McConkey asked Drew (Cameron Mathison) whether he decided to run for his seat. “What happens to the baby if Molly and TJ break up?” Kristina (Kate Mansi) asked Alexis (Nancy Grahan). Chase (Josh Swickward) met with Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) at The Bistro. Finn (Michael Easton) was startled by Violet (Jophelle Love) who asked “Daddy, what’s wrong?” Gio played his violet for Ava. Kristina reminded Alexis how she said if Molly and TJ weren’t together the only people who would have legal custody of the baby were TJ and Kristina. Violet asked Finn whether he remembered he said they could go to the pool after his nap. Elizabeth told Chase about finding Finn with a woman. She said she couldn’t subject herself and her kids to Finn’s behavior. Drew told Congressman McConkey it would be an honor to run for his seat. Elizabeth told Chase how she’s seen Finn addicted before. She told Chase he wasn’t responsible for Finn and couldn’t enable him. Chase told Elizabeth how he and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) came up with a plan for Violet to stay with them at the Quartermaines but Finn shot the plan down. Elizabeth suggested she talk with Finn to try to convince him. Finn told Violet to give him ten minutes to get cleaned up and then they’d go to the pool. Congressman McConkey urged Drew again to think about changing his name to Quartermaine for the recognition. They were interrupted by Nina. Ava told Gio he had the job to perform at the art benefit then they went into the back to discuss it. Josslyn (Eden McCoy) arrived to take Trina to look at apartments. Trina told Josslyn she was right about Gio and how he played the violin. “He’s an artist,” Trina said. Alexis told Kristina she’s been prepared for her questions because it’s been her worst nightmares since they agreed to the surrogacy. Alexis said she wouldn’t choose between her daughters. Trina said that Gio’s playing was like giving the music a voice. Ava and Gio came back into the room. After Ava left the gallery, Gio told Trina and Josslyn there was an available apartment above the Quartermaine garage. Congressman McConkey asked Nina’s opinion about Drew running for his seat. Alexis sent Kristina a link to statutes. She told Kristina to think about the consequences if she broke the promise she made to TJ and Molly. Elizabeth knocked on the door of Finn’s apartment and hugged the little girl when Violet opened it. Gio showed Trina and Josslyn the apartment above the Quartermaine garage. After he left, Josslyn told Trina she loved the place. Chase was surprised to learn Finn had drank at the wedding before their dad died. Finn sent Violet to the lobby to get their mail. Once they were alone, Finn told Elizabeth he knew a wellness check when he saw it. Trina called the apartment too good to be true. When he returned, Gio asked what they thought of the apartment. Nina said Drew was perfect for Congressman McConkey ’s seat. Once they were alone, Nina told Drew she needed a favor. “Of course you do,” Drew said matter of factly. Alexis told Chase he had to take his cue from what Finn did and not what he said. Finn told Elizabeth that Violet was his daughter and she was staying with him. Trina said she loved the apartment Josslyn would speak with Michael (Chad Duell) who would talk with Monica (Leslie Chrleson) so the apartment was basically theirs. Nina told Drew she needed his advice because it was Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) birthday and she wanted to make sure she didn’t do anything to overstep. Drew told Nina that Michael was throwing Willow a birthday party, adding he could help but Nina had to do what he said. Alexis told Chase since Finn’s sponsor isn’t available, she’ll have to talk with him. Elizabeth told Violet she’d always be there for her no more what happened then left the apartment.
