He wants to talk about Sam and Lucky but he promised not to contact Liz again. When he gets done leaving the message for Emily, Jason notices that Spinelli is happy knowing that Logan will be ok.

There are no facts and nothing solid, but it is "the darkest of all".

Trevor storms out.
Ric comes over to see Sonny and he tells Ric it's a bad time right now. Ric asks if it is because his dad is in town and sleeping with Kate or if it's because Zaccara is headed to town. Sonny tells Ric that he better hope Zaccara isn't headed to town. Zaccara targets families of his enemies. Since Ric and Sonny are brothers, Ric could lose his life. Ric asks if that's a threat. Sonny tells him, "It's a warning little brother." Later, Milo and Max bring Logan is. Sonny is furious that Logan didn't do his assigned duty and guard the boys.

Maxie tells her about Logan's recent threats to her to stay away from Lulu and not to tell her what happened between them. Georgie has a hard time believing that Maxie didn't pursue Logan on her own and get him into bed.

Ric takes his threat seriously and calls Diane, Sonny's attorney over to talk to her. He tells her about his situation with his father.

Trevor acts like he is sympathetic and tells her that Ric has never been a compassionate man. Trevor changes the subject and tells Sam that she looks very familiar and asks her if they have met before. Sam tells him they haven't but explains that he may have seen her on television since she hosts a program called "Everyday Heroes."
