At the Nurses' Ball, AJ declares that anyone who gets AIDS is an idiot. Stone retorts that he has the virus and also fill in Ned and Lois. Robin later informs Mac that Stone has AIDS. She explains that her test was negative, but she has to be tested regularly because she and Stone had unprotected sex. Mac freaks out and heads to Felicia's. Why did she encourage Robin to go on the pill? She tells Mac to calm down. They've got a long road ahead of them. A jealous Bobbie later flies off the handle when she catches Tony consoling Felicia. Mac confides in Kevin that he's failed as Robin's guardian. He should have done everything to keep her away from Stone. Lily comforts Sonny, who rages against Stone's AIDS. 

Mac keeps busy by concentrating on his work. After Laura refuses to reveal any information about Sonny, Mac recruits Felicia to find out about Sonny's ties to Harry. A disguised Felicia visits Fritz, a bookie, and lays down a bet on a horse race. She asks Fritz for a line of credit, so he refers her to Ronnie, a man who works for Harry. Felicia arrives at Harry's office, where Harry approves $5,000 of credit. Felicia fills Mac in on her fishing expedition.

Mac runs into Stone outside Kelly's. Mac freaks out and says that Stone may have killed his little girl. Mac storms off and leaves Stone crying in the alley. Sonny is furious that Mac would treat Stone so badly, so he heads to the Outback. Sonny warns Mac not to dump on Stone or else. After his run-in-with Sonny, he is even more determined to put Sonny away. Felicia grabs a walkman and listens to the horse race- she wins the exacta! Later, Felicia plants a bug in Harry's office while placing her next bet. 

Busted 
Sonny tells Harry that something's going down in Puerto Rico, which Mac and Felicia catch on tape, thanks to the bug. They play it for Ned. After Sonny lies about Lily's dad, a furious Brenda tells Ned she'll wear a wire to bust Sonny. Mac agrees to get Garcia involved so that the tape will be admissable in court (with Brenda's consent). Ned, Lois and Mac discuss Brenda's plan to catch Sonny on tape, which Lily overhears. Ms. Rivera blabs the scheme to Sonny. After busting Brenda, Sonny escorts Lily to Puerto Rico. He and Harry have discovered the bug before Corinthos departs. Felicia and Mac realize that with Sonny out of town, it's the perfect time to search his apartment. Felicia brings dinner to Stone as a cover, and they chat for a while until Stone goes to bed. Felicia pretends to leave, and then starts snooping around the apartment. Luke returns to the club and comes upstairs. Felicia is busted.

Luke asks Felicia why she is snooping through Sonny's drawers. Felicia lies that she's getting a pair of sunglasses for Brenda. She holds up a pair of glasses that are in her hand; when Luke notices that there's a blonde hair in the hinge, Felicia covers by saying she tried them on. After Felicia bolts, Luke checks the apartment for bugs.

The ex-lovers have a nasty argument outside, which Ned breaks up after hearing Brenda yelling at a violent Sonny to let her go. Sonny then decks Ned, causing Luke to break up the fight. Laura, becoming angry after learning that Ned had a tape of Sonny's criminal activity but it was not permissable in court, walks off. Luke warns Corinthos that he won't allow any violence at his club, then rushes after his estranged wife. He manages to calm Laura down enough to snuggle on the grass outside their home but is stunned when Laura tells him that it's over between them and goes inside.
