Ric releases Reese and tells her that her ex-husband had just tried to kill him. Ric also refers to Reese as Charlotte just moments before Sonny and Jason arrive at the scene of Evan's shooting. Sonny immediately demands to know what is going on. Ric quickly explains that he killed Evan in self-defense and called the police. He warns Sonny and Jason to leave before the police arrive, certain that John Durant will find a way to pin the murder on Sonny. Jason is reluctant to leave, not trusting either Ric or Reese but Sonny sees the merit in Ric's warning and insists that they go. When John Durant arrives, he is full of suspicion about Evan's death. Ric explains that he had seen Evan and recognized him. When he approached Evan, he pulled a gun which resulted in Ric and Evan struggling over it. During the ensuing struggle, the gun went off and Evan was subsequently shot. Durant questions Reese about her involvement. Reese explains that she had arranged to meet Evan but had arrived after the shooting. Durant remains doubtful and warns both of them that he intends to interrogate them further on another day at the police station. Neither Ric nor Reese is surprised. Left alone, Reese asks Ric why he is protecting her given that she obviously has plenty to hide. Ric tells her that he wants to hear her version of events after learning from Evan that Reese knew Carly in high school. Reese reluctantly confirms Evan's claim and goes on to explain that she and Carly had a typical teenage girl argument which resulted in Reese getting into her car, driving off and then being hit head on by a drunk driver. What followed were weeks in a coma and months of extensive plastic surgery to her face. Her appearance was altered to such a degree that Carly no longer recognized her. Ric points out that Reese of course recognized Carly. He asks her when exactly Reese knew about Carly. Reese admits that it was two years ago when a file about Sonny came across her desk. She saw that Carly was married to a handsome, powerful man and had a son the same age her own son, Jamie, would have been had he lived. She goes on to admit that it didn't seem fair that Caroline had everything that Reese was suppose to have had. Ric quickly concludes that is the moment that Reese decided to take it all back from Carly. Reese doesn't deny it. She resents Carly. Ric finds that too mild of a term. He shares his own experiences with Sonny when he first came to town to convince her that he truly does understand how she feels but he goes on to warn her that revenge is pointless. Reese tries to convince him that she no longer wishes to take from Carly what she feels she herself was entitled too. Reese is attracted to Sonny because she's attracted to him, not for any other reason. Ric is skeptical but makes it clear that he won't say anything. He tells her that she better hope Carly doesn't eventually recognize her and advises Reese to tell Sonny the truth.

He's also still hurt that Emily had refused to leave with him when Sonny had ordered Nik out of the house. Emily tries to explain that Sonny had the wrong impression about the nature of their relationship. Sonny erroneously believed that Nik was abusing her. Nik doesn't really care what Sonny thought. He's more concerned about the state of their own relationship. Emily admits that she's been using Michael to hide, not from Nik but from herself. She clarifies that she is frustrated that her healing is not progressing faster and so rather than deal with it she's been focusing on Michael. Nik is disappointed. He tells her that being together used to come easy for them but lately it's too much work and it shouldn't be that way. He feels his love seems to be hurting her rather than helping her so he decides that from now on he will keep his distance and give her space in the hopes it will help her. As he leaves, Emily tells him that she loves him.

Later, Emily seeks some advice from Sam. Sam promises that whatever Emily tells her will remain confidential. Emily appreciates the gesture and opens up to Sam about her problems with Nik. Sam feels that sex has become a pink elephant to Emily and Nik. Both are trying to avoid it when they shouldn't be. Sam's advice to Emily is to end the stalemate and go to Nik. They should be making love not avoiding it. Emily takes Sam's advice and goes to Nik. She tells him that she doesn't want space. She wants him to make love to her. Nik feels it's too soon but Emily is determined and eventually convinces him. Before kissing her, Nik makes Emily promise to tell him if she starts feeling uncomfortable or panicked.

Carly tells Bobbie how growing up she had a best friend whom she tried to pretend was a sister but it was just make believe because there wasn't a real sisterly bond between them. She never met BJ but she always felt a sisterly connection to her because of what she saw in Bobbie's eyes every time she talked about BJ. Carly offers to do whatever Bobbie needs to help her through this difficult time. Bobbie is deeply moved by Carly's words and thanks her for them. After she gives Carly an affectionate hug, Bobbie leaves to check on Maxie and Georgie. Lorenzo walks up to Carly just then and after a few words they make up.

Jason is not happy to have left the scene of Evan's shooting. He is convinced that there wouldn't have been any repercussions for either him or Sonny had they stayed. Sonny disagrees. Jason is certain that Ric wanted them gone so that they wouldn't be privy to what he told the police. Sonny shocks Jason when he tells him that he knows Reese is capable of lying but not Ric. Jason asks Sonny when he started trusting Ric. Sonny replies "Say what you want, but Ric came through for me when he acquitted me of AJ's murder. He lost his marriage and his career." Jason isn't impressed. He doesn't think that proves anything. He reminds Sonny of all the things that Ric has done since coming to town including kidnapping and holding a pregnant Carly in a panic room, chained to a wall. Sonny admits that he won't ever forget what Ric did but he now realizes that Ric had a breakdown. He was a grieving father and an envious brother who snapped. Sonny questions how he can hold that against his own brother, when Sonny himself has suffered breakdowns more than once. Jason drops the matter of Ric and decides to focus in on Reese, asking Sonny how he can trust her after all the lies she's told. Just then Reese walks in. Once they are left, Sonny and Reese talk. When Sonny theorizes that Reese sent him to a false meeting place because she feared he was going to kill Evan, Reese admits that is the exact reason she lied to him. She tells him that she didn't want Evan dead, she just wanted him to go away and take her past him with him because that part of her life was over. Sonny senses that Reese is still keeping things from him. He can't take lies, having gone down that path with Carly too many times.

Durant says that Michael's problems aren't helped by Carly's choice of husbands. Carly explodes at Durant, and Bobbie comes running over. When Carly explains the situation to her mother, Bobbie tells them they won't be able to take Michael away from Sonny and Carly. Durant tells Bobbie that she wasn't exactly the best mother to Carly, so she probably shouldn't be giving advice. Jason steps off the elevator and rushes over to find out what's going on. Jason says that Michael knows where he wants to live, so they should leave him alone. Alan thinks that Jason is the last person who should have an opinion, considering he abandoned his family.

She says she is glad he is dead, but she didn't want Sonny to shoot him. Sonny thinks that now that Evan is dead, Reese probably shouldn't stay with him, considering all of Michael's problems. Reese agrees that she needs to find her own place and make a name for herself in Port Charles. She tells Sonny that she plans to open a law office with Ric. Michael overhears her tell Sonny that she is going home, but will leave her door unlocked in case he wants to come over later.
