Armed with her information, Carly is cornered by Jason so she shows her hand to Jason: she tells him that she has a person who could vouch that Dante and Brenda slept together 3 years ago. Jason however turns the tables on Carly and tells her that all she has is a guy's suspicion which she might have twisted for her own agenda. However, after Carly leaves, Jason talks to Dante and demands to know if there is anything else he needs to know. Dante maneuvers around the question, keeping his and Brenda's secret for a little bit longer.

Jason is not the only one calling out Carly. Uncle Luke spots dear Caroline encouraging Lulu to stay with Dante and to stay by his side. However, Luke does not buy it especially since he knows Carly is a Spencer- a person who is feisty and relentless. He finally pulls it out of her that she loathes Dante and cannot wait for him to fall on his face. When it comes to Lulu, Carly admits that Lulu betrayed family and deserves whatever she gets. Suspicious, Luke leaves her with a warning.

Of course Lulu is still oblivious that her main enemy is her cousin. She is so focused on being the perfect girlfriend and keeping her identity while keeping Dante's attention and affection. So insecure, she pesters Michael if Dante had spoken to him about her- making her young cousin uncomfortable. Michael was put into the position of protecting Dante by neglecting to tell her that Dante has been speaking of Brenda. Later, Michael confronts Dante and tells him that he overheard his conversation with Suzanne and believes that he does have an emotional attachment to Brenda.

He's not the only one. After talking to Robin and reminiscing about the old days, Brenda goes to see Sonny's old apartment above Luke's old club. When she gets there, she finds out that she is not the only one who wants a walk down memory lane. Sonny is there after he talks to Olivia about Brenda.  Together, they talk about the good old days and their young romance.

While Brenda is reliving her happiest moments, Robin is going through her own emotional rollercoaster. She wakes up to Maxie throwing her purse at Lisa who was standing by Robin's IV with a needle. Thankfully (or unfortunately, really) Maxie prevents Lisa from injecting whatever she had in Robin's IV and chases Lisa through the hospital. Along the way, Lisa passes by Johnny and hands him the syringe. Maxie, Patrick and Steve demand for the cops to come to investigate. However, the cops- headed by Ronni- find nothing. Yet, Steve finds Lisa's presence in Robin's room enough to put her on probation. Lisa is livid and Maxie is slightly justified until people start questioning if she framed Lisa.

Lisa, upset, is actually surprised and happy to hear Nikolas stupidly defending her to Steve. Knowing that she at least has one person on her side, she runs after Nikolas and thanks him for being "objective"- gullible would have been the word I would have used. Still playing innocent, she continues to bat her eyes at him not knowing that Johnny is in the alley watching everything with a knowing grin.

Things to consider/watch out for:

• Luke will be watching Carly closely who is going to up her game; she's going to be desperate to expose Dante and Brenda, especially when she sees how all of the men in her life are ready and waiting to help the "distress damsel".
• Brenda and Sonny are going to grow closer which is going to make the moment when her secret is exposed that much juicier
• Johnny is not going to let Lisa get away with everything for nothing. A partnership is going to grow out of this and possibly.... more?
