In the bridal suite at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, Brenda, dressed in black, aimlessly roamed the room until a knock on the door brought her back to the present. She opened the door to Jason and assumed that he was there on Sonny's orders. Brenda told him that she needed some favors, and Jason said he was happy to oblige. She wanted Jason to get rid of anything that had to do with the wedding. As Jason was picking up the strewn clothes and wedding paraphernalia, he found Brenda's diamond bracelet and necklace on the floor. Brenda sadly reminisced that Sonny had given her the bracelet at the beginning of their relationship, and the beginning had turned out to be the worst mistake of her life, "Diamonds at the start and diamonds at the end" she said. Brenda ordered Jason to take the diamonds to Sonny and tell him to stay gone, and that went for Jason too.
Alone in the bridal suite, Brenda looked back on some of the key moments in hers and Sonny's tumultuous love affair starting with their first meeting.
Brenda experienced a series of flashbacks. Sonny introduced himself. "I'm Sonny Corinthos. Brenda responded, "And I'm leaving." Finally Sonny convinced her to tell him her name was Brenda. Sonny asked Brenda how old she was. "I'm 18, do you have a problem with that?" she said. Sonny's answer was, "Not even a little."
She continued to remember as she and Sonny kissed passionately in the front seat of a car. Later, Sonny told Brenda that this time there was no turning back and they made love. As she snapped out of her reverie, a pensive Brenda surveyed the empty bridal suite.
Her hand shaking, Brenda tried to pour a cup of coffee at the table that was set for her wedding breakfast, and more memories kept flooding back. Brenda remembered as she and Sonny kissed passionately in a hot tub, and later as they made love. She recalled a time she and Sonny ran for their lives and jumped onto a moving boat.
Brenda recalled a time that she and Sonny made love at sunset on the beach. Brenda remembered when she finally got Sonny to say, "I love you." Another time, while Brenda was taking a shower at Sonny's penthouse, bullets riddled the shower. Back in the present, Brenda spilled her coffee.
One of Brenda's most painful memories was when she wore a wire to prove to herself that Sonny was not a mobster. It had unleashed Sonny's anger and had caused a devastating impact on their relationship. At that painful juncture in her life, Brenda couldn't help remembering that moment.
Because he had trusted Brenda more than any other woman, Sonny demanded to know the truth. He had loved her more than he could imagine and had thought that she loved him too. He demanded to know why she'd spied on him. Sonny went into a rage, throwing Brenda's clothes out of her drawers while looking for a bug. Brenda tried to convince Sonny that all she wanted was for him to tell him her the truth. She insisted she had to know that she would have stuck by him through anything. Sonny lost control and started to get violent. He accused Brenda of turning him into his abusive stepfather. Afraid of what he might do, Sonny ran out, leaving Brenda hysterical and begging him not to leave her.
Alone in the bridal suite, Brenda wondered aloud why she hadn't let go.
The wire wasn't the only painful memory. Memories flashed through her mind. Sonny called Brenda a whore. He reamed Brenda out for disrespecting him by strolling into his club on someone else's arm and added that hanging all over Miguel was as disrespectful as it got. Brenda told Sonny to "go to hell."
Then there were the times that Brenda and Sonny couldn't be together but couldn't bear to be apart. Brenda remembered when she told Sonny that all she wanted was for him to be okay. Another time, Brenda tried to seduce Sonny with a kiss because she reasoned that every time he kissed her, she could tell how much he wanted her. She reminded Sonny of how good they were together. Sonny tried in vain to resist.
She reminisced about when Sonny had just found out that Lily was pregnant and he'd tried to explain to Brenda that "a long time ago I swore on everything holy that no child of mine would ever have to live with a big hole in his heart the way I did." Even though he loved Brenda with all his heart, he couldn't do that. Brenda knew that she'd lost him. "Be a good father," she said. "Make it worth it." Back in the present, Brenda realized that Sonny was like a drug.
Brenda found a single pearl earring on the floor of the bridal suite and remembered Sonny's several proposals of marriage. She flashed back to when Sonny asked Brenda, "Will you marry me?" On another occasion, he got down on one knee, and asked Brenda if she would be his wife. Brenda responded, "There's no other option for me. Yes, I'll be your wife." Her memory took her through a montage of romantic dances that led up to Brenda in her wedding dress at the church.
Brenda walked down the aisle alone and turned lovingly to look at Sonny, but Sonny wasn't there. Worried, Brenda asked Jason if Sonny was hurt. Jason confirmed that Sonny was all right. The only thing Jason knew was that Sonny was gone. Brenda wanted Jason to take her back to the penthouse. She had planned to sit at the front door until Sonny told her why he had done it. Jason wondered if she was ready to do that "until the day you die?" Jason tried to make Brenda understand that Sonny was gone and he wasn't coming back. Brenda demanded to know exactly what Sonny had told him to tell her. Jason reported that Sonny told him to tell her "it was a great ride."
Sonny was alone in a car, waiting for Jason. When Jason arrived, Sonny asked where Brenda had gone. Jason told Sonny that Brenda had gone back to the bridal suite at the Cosmopolitan Hotel. Sonny wanted to know everything that had happened at the church. Jason told him that Brenda was at the altar when he arrived. She had walked down the aisle alone because she had thought that Sonny would be there. She'd asked Jason if Sonny had been hurt. Sonny wanted more details.
Jason confirmed that he'd told Brenda what Sonny had instructed him to say, and she believed him. Sonny wanted to know if Brenda hated him. He got his answer when Jason handed him the diamond bracelet and necklace. Sonny tried hard to convince himself that it was better that way. He ordered Jason to protect Brenda because Jason was the only one Sonny trusted with her life. Jason promised Sonny that he wouldn't let anything happen to her.
Jason wanted to know Sonny's plans. Sonny said he planned to go to Puerto Rico on business then leave on a flight to Port Charles but never arrive. They talked about how Jason had learned everything Sonny had to teach. Jason said that Sonny had changed his life. Sonny said that Jason had done the same for him. Jason's parting words to Sonny were "Don't you die on me now." Sonny responded in kind, "Don't you die on me." Sonny instructed Jason to let the pilot know he was ready. Jason nodded and walked away, leaving Sonny stoically staring into space.

That he was leading her on just to stay out of jail. She doesn't believe him. She yells at him, you're lying, I know that you feel something for me. But relentlessly Stefan doesn't give in. He holds his ground. She yells at him one more time, look at me Stefan! Look at me in the eyes, tell me you never felt anything for me. You are a gluten for punishment. He looks at her, and tells her what she wanted to hear.
Mike arrives at Jason's apartment demanding to know where Sonny is. Jason says, I can't tell you. Mike looks at him and says, you have a brain and a mouth, you can tell me you just don't want to. Don't just stand there like stone, damn it! I can't go into it with you right now, when I get back I will tell you what I can. When he returns home, he still isn't much help. He tells Mike that he has feelings. That you once told me that the only way Robin would ever be free is to let go, Mike , Sonny has to let go. I can't tell you anything.
Keesha waits patiently for AJ to get off the phone. He finally walks over to her and says, thanks for waiting. She looks at him and says are you nuts, why would you meet that girl anywhere. What does she have on you any ways? You are going to have to trust me Keesha, she has nothing on me. I can't tell you anything else right now. Well all I can say is that I'm going to follow you just in case she knocks you down the stairs or something, I will call 9-1-1! Just as he's getting ready to leave his mother walks into the room. Mom he says, I expected you to be gone longer. Is everything all right, is Emily OK? We are fine, but I expected you to be in rehab. What happened? Keesha says she has to get back to work. After she leaves, Monica drills AJ but she can't get anything out of him. He tells her that when he can he will explain everything to her. She tells him that she knows that he talked with Lila. Did you learn everything you wanted to know? Yes I did, he looks at his watch and says, I really must go and he walks out of the room.
She picks up her purse and walks out into the other room. Keesha is standing there when Monica says to her, I need to talk to you. I couldn't get anything out of AJ as to why he didn't go to rehab. I need your help. You need to convince him to go. I can't! Is it because you are afraid you will be codependent. I know you went to ALA non. AJ had a terrible set back Keesha. Do you forget not long ago I found him drunk in the apartment alley. I'm afraid the next time it will kill him! Keesha looks at Monica and says, it won't happen again because he wasn't drunk the last time. He's been sober for months.
Over at the penthouse Mike shows up at Brenda's front door. The bodyguard says to him, good luck , she won't talk to anybody. She invited me over. He knocks on the door and in the back ground you hear, who is it? It' s Mike! She opens the door and says thanks for coming. She starts to close the door, she pokes her head out and says I thought I told you I didn't want you here. You work for Sonny, don't you? If I see your face again around here, I will call the police. Mike, there is only one thing left I have to get rid of and she walks over to the counter and picks up the ring and hands it to him. Here this is yours it doesn't belong to me. But Brenda, he loves you. Something must be wrong. Mike I don't want to think of him, I don't care if he's safe or anything else. I am rid of him. The best thing that happened to me was not to marry Sonny. I'm worried about you Brenda. We all are. Well don't, I just need to be alone!
At Wyndemere Katherine and Stefan are still fighting. She says to him I don't believe you. I know you felt something for me. Don't you get it Katherine, I only wanted you so I wouldn't go to jail. She looks at him and slaps him right across the face. He looks at her. She says look at me! He screams at her, I want you to leave my island now! I'll leave but there is one thing I have to do first and she makes a fist and socks him right in the eye. Then she walks out of the house and heads for the pier. She runs until she looks over at some bushes and says I don't believe it, I've come full circle. She sits on the bench and starts to remember when she met him, then thinks to her self. He's lying. Inside the mansion Alexis comes down the stairs and says I heard shouting. It's done. She won't be back. Maybe we should go to Greece she say. Maybe later we will go for a visit. No Stefan I meant for good. Is there anything to keep you here. No, I guess not. But I didn't know you wanted to leave Port Charles. If you need to go, we will! All of a sudden the door opens, it's Katherine. She walks over to him and says you lied. I want to know the truth now!
