Carly's Shocking
Confession- Mac and Taggert overheard Angel say she knew what Carly
had done. Unable to find an alibi, Carly dodged Taggert's questions by
pointing the finger at Angel, saying Sorel's daughter was framing her in
order to win Sonny. Soon after, Carly traded barbs with AJ. When Mac began
aggressively questioning Roy about the night of Sorel's murder, Melissa
tried to help her beau out of the hot seat.
- 9/14- Sonny
and Jax nearly came to blows during Chloe's memorial service as Sonny
berated Jax for not protecting his woman. Carly tried to step in to
tell Sonny about Angel's connection to Jax, but Sonny brushed her off.
After seeing Angel smirk at her, Carly went into Sorel's memorial room
to confront her rival. Taggert and Mac secretly listened as the women
exchanged barbs. Their attention was piqued when Angel told Carly that
she saw what she did the night that Sorel was murdered. Unfortunately
for the cops, nothing more was said than that. Still, Taggert
questioned Carly, who didn't have a plausible alibi for the night of
the murder. In response, Carly pointed the finger at Angel, suggesting
that Angel was trying to frame her in order to steal Sonny.
- 9/17- Unnerved by Angel's
coldness, Taggert told Mac that he suspected she could have killed her
own father. Mac told him to investigate his suspicion at the same time
that he checked out Alan Quartermaine. Taggert was surprised to learn
that Mac considered the doctor a suspect.
- 9/21- Stefan insisted to Mac and
Taggert that he did not murder Chloe, but based on the evidence, they
had no choice but to arrest him.

Anna returned to her
Valley Inn room to find the door ajar and someone moving about. Anna grabbed the
man only to discover that it was her brother-in-law, Mac Scorpio. Mac chastised
Anna for not telling him face-to-face that she remembered Robert had died in the
boat explosion. Anna admitted that telling Robin about Robert was difficult
enough, and she didn't have the courage to face Mac. Anna asked Mac about his
loved ones in Port Charles, and he asked Anna to return there with him. Anna
refused, saying she was remaining in Pine Valley indefinitely. Anna piqued Mac's
curiosity, prompting him to question her as to why she wouldn't return home.
When she remained vague about her reasons for staying in Pine Valley, Mac
surmised that Anna was up to something.

Mac spotted Felicia at
GH, and he asked for her help in the Sorel investigation. Felicia told him that
they could talk about it, but only after she visited a sick friend. Felicia
slipped into Luke's room, and he eventually remembered who she was. She
apologized to him for not understanding that he was sick when he was so mean to
her, and he forgave her with a hug. Once she left, Mac caught up with her and
realized that she had seen Luke. He asked if there was anything she needed, and
a grateful Felicia said no. Mac offered her a welcome distraction by convincing
her to start helping him with the case right away.

Meanwhile, Felicia and Mac worked together on a
plan to root out Sorel's killer. They went over the list of suspects and their
various motives, but there was still no definitive evidence to work with.
Felicia suggested that they gather all of the suspects together in one room and
see what they would reveal under group pressure. She theorized that the innocent
people would loudly proclaim their innocence while the guilty remained quiet.
Mac thought that it was a brilliant plan, and he expressed how happy he was to
be working with her again.

Mac continued the Sorel investigation at GH by bringing in a janitor who identified Bobbie as the nurse outside of Sorel's room.
Bobbie told Mac that she was visiting Zander to thank him for saving Carly's life, and his room just happened to be across from
Sorel's. Melissa butt in to say that it was perfectly normal for any nurse or doctor to be in any part of the hospital. Alan and
Monica chimed in to say that Mac really needed to stop turning GH into his office. Mac made them understand that he was just
trying to solve a case, and that he really didn't want any of his friends to be guilty. However, he couldn't ignore the fact that they
all had ample motive.

Mac and Felicia used an abandoned mansion as the holding place for the suspects in the Sorel murder case. Mac sent out
several officers to round up the suspects (usual and otherwise) and bring them to the mansion. He told Felicia that he was
relying on her incredible instincts to help ferret out the real killer. Mac halted the sideshow of AJ and Sonny exchanging barbs
by unveiling a portrait of Sorel. He said that no one was leaving until the case of the unsolved murder was solved.
- 10/24-
In the abandoned mansion, the restless suspects berated Mac when he said that he was waiting for evidence from the lab that
would prove who the murderer was. They all separately railed at him for detaining them for so long. Most angry was Angel,
who stormed out of the mansion once she realized that she wasn't being charged. Alan, A.J., and Monica headed home, though
Mac advised Monica not to leave town since she was one of his prime suspects. Though none of them realized it, Mac and
Felicia had deduced that Angel was the most likely killer, and they were on their way to get her.
- 10/25-
Carly, Jax and Sonny took the fight out to the porch, where Mac and Taggert had a clear view of them. Jax threw "Carly" over
his shoulder to take her away from the lake house, while "Angel" and Sonny kissed inside. In reality, Carly had donned a brown
wig, and Angel a blonde one. Jax took Angel to the airport, where he had his jet fly her to an island in Greece. The friends said
a sad goodbye and wished each other well. Back at the lake house, Taggert and Mac waited for a warrant before going in to
arrest Angel.

At the same time, Mac and Taggert interrupted a passionate interlude between Sonny and Carly. Mac left to question Jax at the
station, while Taggert grilled Sonny and Carly. Gia was stunned to find a picture of Stavros holding a baby Nikolas, because
Stavros looked exactly like Lucien Cane! She rushed to the police station and asked Mac to find Lucien and arrest him. After
all the false alarms she had pulled, Mac gave her no attention. Jax, however, was all ears when she confessed to him that
Lucien was actually Stavros Cassadine.
- 11/9-
Felicia barged into Mac's office and told him that several of their friends were missing and she suspected Helena of capturing
them in the lab. She told Mac that she knew how to get there, but he initially refused to let her go because of the great danger.
Felicia reminded him that she would simply follow behind and he relented. Outside of the maze, everyone embraced and rejoiced that they were all safe. The crowning moment came when Mac and
Taggert placed Helena under arrest. The only worry left was Luke who had yet to emerge from the maze.
- PC 11/9- Mac questioned Kevin's
motives for helping Eve and wanted to make sure that Kevin wasn't
neglecting Lucy. Kevin admitted that he had probably been guilty of
hurting Lucy's feelings and knew that he needed to be more sensitive
to her needs. When he told Mac that he had hired a P.I. to investigate
Ian, Mac thought that was a terrible idea that could lead to more
trouble than Kevin wanted.
- 11/14- Luke was thrilled to see Felicia and outlined his
plans for an exciting future. Felicia thought it all sounded lovely, but she
realized that his future didn't include her. They thanked each other for a
memorable time and said a final goodbye. Felicia cried as she walked away and
Luke contemplated his divorce papers from Laura.
