In Rome, Brenda and Jason continued to have their battle of the wills as Brenda was trying to convince Jason that she needed to go to the gala and it was not just because of her celebrity. Thanks to Suzanne, who decided that she needed to dress a little bit more feminine for the "charming", "creative", "cuddly" Jason, she was able to prove that Brenda's attendance was important and a job so that they can help children who are working in slave conditions. Properly schooled of the seriousness of Brenda's attendance, Jason surrendered in letting Brenda go to the gala- with him as her bodyguard of course.... IN A TUX. Paparazzi were ready to point and flash their camera at the couple which only means one thing: Tabloid Shots. I wonder who in Port Charles is going to see it first? Carly?

Well Carly should be more focused on her family. Jax is back home and her family is complete. They all agree to be honest with one another which opened a new can of worms. Morgan might not want Jax to adopt him. How are they going to wheedle out of this? I'm sure Jax is slightly hurt and is going to argue that being the son of Sonny is a hindrance and is dangerous. He might find a unlikely partner in Michael is knows first hand how cruel the world is to the children of Sonny Corinthos.

As his sons are having dinner at home, Sonny shared a tender moment with Claire after they made love. Claire took responsibility of her actions and told Sonny that he was the loneliest man she had ever known. Boy is she getting sucked in like so many other people. They see the sensitive person Sonny is and forget about all the danger that his life evokes. To bring some comedy and craziness to this, though, Sonny and Claire stumble on Max and Diane on the patio. Clothes half falling off and limping on one heel, Diane gathered her dignity and happily told Claire that she had just been played. I personally love Diane. She has some of the best lines.

In Ireland, Lucky thought he was going to open the door to The Balkan but it is Siobhan who rushes in to warn him that three Slavic men were on their way to get him. She pleaded him to leave with her but he refused. When he finally convinced her to leave, she kissed him goodbye and left. The girl has guts and a stubborn streak- perfect for any woman who wants to tangle with a Spencer. After she left, Lucky called Dante requesting any information he can get on The Balkan. When Dante found out that Lucky was dealing with The Balkan he warned Lucky to get out but it was too late. He hung up the phone and answered the knock on the door- the Slavic men who were there to take him to The Balkan with a bag over his head.

Knowing Lucky was in trouble, Dante finally broke down and told Lulu and her brother is in over his head. More calm than Dante, Lulu questions Dante- just as Spinelli had- about his connection with The Balkan. Dante slightly admitted that on a case, he was able to get some information this mysterious man who was vicious, unpredictable and ruthless- not someone you want to tangle with. So will Dante and Lulu decide to fly to Ireland to save Lucky?
