At the Grille, Sonny and Jax argue bitterly over who did what to Brenda.
For Robin's sake, however, Sonny calls a halt to their battling. Jax takes
Robin aside and advises her to remove herself from Jason and Sonny's
troubled lives, but she refuses. Jax then tells his brother he's prepared
to fight sonny if it comes down to that. Felicia advises Robin to follow
her instincts regarding the Carly and Jason mess. Jax
once again tries to warn Robin against staying with Jason and Sonny, to no
avail. Sonny can help her with the Jason/Carly situation, explains an
optimistic Robin. Meanwhile, Jason and Sonny discuss the recent tension
between Jason and Robin. Sonny voices his concern that Jason's love for
Michael could wind up costing him his relationship with Robin. Sonny also

beseeches Sonny to help her get Jason less attached to the baby, but he
refuses. The next day, Robin is even more stunned when Jason announces
that he's going to move in with Carly- for Michael's sake. Brokenhearted,
Robin breaks up with Jason for good and leaves the penthouse. Carly, of
course, is overjoyed by the development and blabs all to AJ. Later, Carly
and Robin face off and battle over Carly's manipulations of Jason. Pushed
to the brink by this out-of-control situation, Robin breaks down and tells
AJ that he is really Michael's biological father.

leaves, Felicia tells Bobbie the reason Mac's upset is that it's the
anniversary of Robert and Anna's death. She knows Mac's hurting but he
won't talk to her about it, though Felicia's sure that he will call Robin
today to make sure she's okay. Mac does come home early though and is
surprised to find Felicia waiting for him with a romantic meal. They
discuss Robert and Anna's death and the man who was responsible. Mac
explains that Robert's death hit him as he was handling some files at
work, including Faison's, and realized that his big brother probably
touched them. Reflecting on Robert, Mac tells his wife, "He was an
incredible guy, my brother. As a kid, I always felt safe around him. When

same way." A sadden Felicia adds, "They were an incredible
couple. I miss them too." [Click here

Luke answers, "Oh, man, we hated each other. We were so
competitive." Meanwhile, Faison smugly tells his lover that he killed
Robert and his lovely wife Anna and that they are now with the fishes. He
brags that he escaped the explosion though the world believes he died.
After Lucky leaves, Faison, as Herr Kreig, calls Luke to say he has
someone interested in buying another cut of the Ice Princess. A somber
Luke refuses and hangs up. In answer to his mistress's question of who was

was through. Unable to share his grief with Laura, Luke throws his wedding
ring into the harbor during a fit of anger. He later calls back and
informs him that he's ready to do business again. Meanwhile, Lucky uses
the wires on his computer to open the door to his room. But he barely gets
down the hall when Faison stops him. There's no escape, smiles the
villain. Faison then shows Lucky live footage of Liz at Kelly's and
cautions the teen that he can have Liz killed at any time.
Lucky refuses to believe
that Faison's video feed of Liz is live, so Faison has his operative
(who's tailing Liz) ask her a question. She answers and Lucky realizes
Faison's telling the truth. Faison challenges Lucky to a game of chess. If
Lucky wins, he can ask one question. Faison wins but allows Lucky to ask a
question anyway. Spenser's stunned when Cesar tells him he's holding Lucky
as bait and then spends his time studying the computer's chess tutorial.

frustrated. Just then, a woman's hand covers Faison's. What took her so
long? smiles Faison.

Lila's Two Suitors- Luke
informs Felicia that the dead child wasn't Lila's, then convinces her to
continue investigating. Lila tells Felicia that she knows about the trip
to Oyster Bay and gives Felicia a box of mementos. Felicia suspects Lila
is trying to throw her off the track. She and Luke later discover that
Lila's former fiance, Elliott, and Edward looked a great deal alike and
then notice discrepancies in the letters.
The duo wonder if the
burned note- signed with a letter E- was from Edward or Elliott, but soon
realize that the handwriting is the same as Edward's. Felicia theorizes
that Edward wrote it to Lila after visiting Elliott and asking him to
release Lila from their engagement. She and Luke return to Oyster Bay to
meet with a former employee of Edward's family. She informs them that
Edward's father died shortly after arguing with Edward and had threatened
to cut him out of the will if he married Lila. Luke speculates that Edward
killed his father but they decide to break into the family crypt to verify
this.
I Hear Dead People-
Faison has Mac and Felicia followed then sneak into see Helena. Later, Felicia
was unnerved to run into Faison. When she and Mac confronted Faison, he denied
being responsible for Anna and Robert's deaths. Laura grew concerned that
Felicia had not heard from Luke. When Taggert presents Mac with a recording of
the jewelry fence they've been after, Mac freezes upon hearing the voice-
Faison. He then makes Felicia hear it but she assures her shaken hubby
that Cesar's dead.
Cryptic Encounter-
In the crypt, the two snoops find two skeletons in Edward's father's
grave. Felicia screams as Luke holds up the two skulls. They speculate as
to who the second body belongs then decide that an autopsy must be done to
both skulls. Luke asked Tony to take a look. Tony later reports that one
of them belonged to someone in their 60s and the other to someone in their
20s, who died from a blow to the head. A nervous Felicia insists they
return the skulls.
Returning to the crypt, Luke and Felicia became trapped inside when the doors
slam shut. As Felicia tries to get the door open, Luke finds the cell
phone they had left behind previously but the batteries are dead. Luke
speculates that the Qs locked them in and that Edward murdered Elliott and
concealed his body in the crypt. Felicia disagrees, and as she
optistimatically states that Mac will find them she has a flashback
fantasy about Lila and Edward. She admits to Luke that he always plays
Luke in her fantasies. They then trade stories of past adventures.
Mac to the Rescue-
Back in Port Charles, Mac searches for his missing wife. After Lila and
Edward provide little clues to Felicia and Luke's whereabouts, Mac
questions Tony who tells him about doing an autopsy on two skulls. Tony
also tells him that Felicia wanted to return the skulls to the
tomb.
Waiting to be rescued,
Felicia rests in Luke's arms and the duo think they may die there. Luke
thanks her for helping him through his grief over Lucky. Just as the two
are about to kiss, Mac barges through the crypt door. He chews out Luke,
then takes Felicia home. Unseen by all, someone lurks nearby. 
Once home, Felicia soothes
her upset hubby. Mac gives Felicia his blessing to continue her
investigation and hands her a file containing Elliott's war records. Mac
tries questioning Emily after a beaten up Juan is rushed to the hospital
but the girl refuses to cooperate after Sonny tells her to keep
quiet.
Raising the Past-
Meanwhile, "Krieg" grew irritated with Luke's ambivalence toward their
deal. Felicia overhears Mac listening to Faison's tapes and realizes he's
obsessed with finding Faison. After finding Elliott's Army ID photo- which
is actually a shot of Edward- Luke deduces that Edward shot Elliott in
order to have Lila to himself. Felicia nixes the idea and decides they
should go back to Oyster Bay. As she heads home to discuss things with
Mac, Faison secretly follows her.
Felicia and Luke return to
the cypt to look for a murder weapon. There, Luke finds a fireplace poker.
Felicia reluctantly concurs with Luke's theory that Edward killed Elliott
in a fit of jealous rage. On their return home, Luke and
Felicia accused Edward of having killed Elliot. After initial denials, Edward
confesses but is interrupted when Lila enters and admits that she did the
deed. A stunned Luke and Felicia listen as Lila explains that after she
returned Elliott's ring to him, he tried to force himself on her. She then
killed him in self-defense. Reginald then appears and states without
remorse that he locked Luke and Felicia in the crypt- to protect Lila.
Luke and Felicia promise to keep Lila's secret.
Afterwards, Felicia meets
Mac at Kelly's and tells him the investigation is over. From afar, Faison
watches the Scorpios. With the adventure over, Luke meets with Krieg to
discuss their partnership and the mysterious fence leaves to get more
money. Kreig returns with the cash and Luke takes off. Spenser tells Felicia he was leaving town to embark on another adventure.
