Alexis and Sonny were less than thrilled to hear Drew banging on the door, looking for Scout. Alexis asked Sonny if she could shoot Drew, but Sonny pointed out that she used to frown upon such things. Finally, Sonny opened the door and told Drew that Scout wasn't there.

Drew let himself in to check around and was not surprised to see Alexis, as she assumed she had something to do with Scout's whereabouts. He tried to call Scout, but it rang in the living room, which made it clear that Scout had left her phone. Drew assumed she was sneaking a visit with Alexis and Danny.

Alexis warned Drew that he was trespassing on Sonny's property and needed to leave. Alexis channeled a tiny bit of Natasha as she told Drew that this was all his fault. Scout was miserable because she had to spend all her time with him. "When I find my daughter, you better believe there's going to be legal consequences," Drew warned before storming off.

Sonny and Alexis took it onto the patio so Alexis could vent. She had tried everything she could with Drew so that she could see Scout. "Now it's time to change tactics," Alexis declared. She was going to allow Scout to see her in secret. "I am done letting him shut Scout out of my life."

First Kiss

Outside the Q boathouse, Scout and Rocco came up for air after their first kiss. "Was that okay?" Scout asked. "Uh, yeah," Rocco said. "Us kissing was definitely okay with me." They admitted they had been wondering what it was like to kiss each other.

The teens hadn't known how the other had felt, but now they did. They were ready to kiss again, but then Scout realized that Outback was missing. They set out on a search and finally found him. Inside the boathouse, they played with Rocco until Sonny called to warn his grandson that Drew was on the warpath.

In a GH exam room, Ava continued insisting that she had no idea where she had come in contact with a tick. Isaiah wanted to trace Ava's whereabouts with a map, warning Ava that the county health department would come calling if they didn't have answers.

Ava finally lied and told Isaiah that she had been petting a dog outside her gallery, so maybe that was how a tick found her.

After her trip to GH, Ava headed straight for Drew's house, where she found him on the phone still looking for Scout. Ava couldn't imagine why he was calling the sheriff to find a teenage girl who was likely out with a friend.

Drew was sure Scout was at the Quartermaines, so Ava grabbed his phone and asked why he would call the authorities to search where they had just buried a body. Ava also didn't want Drew to humiliate his teenage daughter. She asked if she had checked with any of Scout's friends. Drew had to admit he didn't know who her friends were.

Drew couldn't believe that Chelsea didn't even know where Scout was. "Drew, if you don't know your daughter's friends or where she likes to go, Chelsea is the least of your problems," Ava said. Just then Scout walked in, innocent as can be, while Rocco waited in the car to make sure Drew didn't lose it on her.

Scout explained that she was letting Donna borrow her hoodie, despite it being too big for her. Then, she left her phone at Sonny's. Silly her. Drew didn't believe her. Scout admitted she had seen her grandmother, but she had no idea Alexis would be at Sonny's house.

Drew asked where else Scout had been, so she lied and said she was with her swim team friends. Finally, Drew asked if Scout was with Danny. She lied and said she was.

Uh-oh, Brook Lynn

In the Q living room, Brook Lynn remained silent as Trina accused her of being the "other driver." Tracy immediately jumped into defense mode, playing dumb and asking Trina where she would ever get such an idea. Brook Lynn finally decided to tell what in her head was the truth. "Trina and Jordan, I am the other driver of the car Curtis has been looking for," Brook Lynn confessed.

Chase was sure Brook Lynn had to be covering for Danny, but a tearful Brook Lynn just wanted the truth out there. "It wasn't Danny. It was me," she cried. Brook Lynn turned to Jordan and swore she never knew Jordan had crashed. There was another car coming right at her and she swerved, hit the guardrail, and drove on.

Everyone piled on Brook Lynn. Kai, Jordan, and Trina were furious. Brook Lynn kept quiet and now Curtis was in jail, at least according to Trina. Curtis is in jail because he punched Isaiah. End of story. Tracy made sure to point that out. "Curtis alone is responsible for his actions," she correctly stated.

Brook Lynn continued to tearfully apologize to Jordan for allowing Jordan to nearly kill her when she kissed Curtis. When Ned walked in, Trina told him that Tracy was "defending your daughter, who is guilty as he**."

Trina kept going. "If you had just had the guts to speak up, none of this would be happening," she shouted before leaving. Ned needed more clarification, so Chase spoke up. He said that he had been digging and was sure that Brook Lynn had to be covering for someone. He never imagined that his wife was the infamous "other driver."

"I never thought my wife would keep something from me that was so important. I guess I was wrong about that and wrong about you," Chase said, before also storming off. Brook Lynn chased after him. Tracy tried to do damage control in the living room, while Chase and Brook Lynn argued in the foyer.

Chase begged Brook Lynn to tell him why she hadn't spoken up until now. "Because I didn't want us to lose Phoebe," Brook Lynn cried. She explained that she had one glass of wine and worried that she'd be accused of driving drunk. Chase noted that Brook Lynn's lies would jeapordize their adoption more.

"The fact that you framed Willow for something you did...I actually can't describe that," Chase said. "But I can't spend every day wondering what you are lying to me about now."

More Fallout

In the living room, Michael and Jordan walked off, while Gio still had questions. He realized that Tracy knew. She admitted she had. Ned was furious his mother had convinced Brook Lynn to keep quiet. Gio was also furious and took his anger out on Tracy.

"Is the accident the reason Brook Lynn offered to set up a showcase for Trina?" Gio asked. Tracy spoke up. "Gio, don't forget. Your mother is a good person. She never meant to hurt anyone," she said. Gio still didn't want any part of his family. He and Emma left, while Ned comforted his sobbing daughter on the staircase. Her husband had already run to the gatehouse.

Michael and Jordan made it to the docks outside the boathouse, where she admitted she was having PTSD flashbacks. Michael understood after his experience following the fire bomb in Sonny's penthouse. Jordan was still reeling and asked Michael when he had learned the truth.

Michael said he had only suspected it, but he did not know. And he certainly didn't offer her the CEO position out of pity.

As for Trina, she and Kai rushed to GH and told Portia and Isaiah that they knew who the other driver was.

Anna's Got a Gun

On Mt. Emerson, Anna trained her gun at Britt and told her to turn around and get on her knees. A stunned and frightened Britt did was she was told, but assumed she was under arrest. "This isn't police business. This is personal," Anna corrected.

"Are you going to shoot me?" Britt asked. "It's the only way I can be sure," Anna said. Britt told Anna she wasn't trying to hurt her. "But your father has," Anna said. Suddenly, Britt understood what this was about and reminded Anna that her father was dead.

"Anna, stop wasting everyone's time. Kill her now," Hallucination Peter ordered. Britt did her best to reason with Anna from a doctor's perspective. She explained to Anna that she wasn't well, nor was she thinking clearly. Anna said that Faison was living through Britt.

Britt once again explained that she had been forced to complete the cold fusion project. Anna didn't care. "That just leaves you as the last Faison standing. It's up to me to make sure that you don't hurt anyone else, especially not my family," Anna said.

Just then, Jason appeared. Anna began to cry, telling him she wished he hadn't come, but she remained steadfast in her determination to kill Britt. Jason claimed he didn't have a gun, but Anna wasn't sure she believed him. She also promised Jason that she would hurt him if he got in her way.

Jason reminded Anna that Britt was not her father, but Anna insisted that Jason didn't know the real Britt. "Britt and Cassius held me captive," Anna said. Britt gently denied that accusation. "Faison is dead. That's true. But you're his last living child. I am sorry, Jason, but because of that, she needs to die," Anna determined.

Anna accused Britt of knowing she was being held captive at Wyndemere, but Jason defended her. Anna insisted that Britt was not a victim. "I didn't know that Anna was on Spoon Island until Cullum turned up in Port Charles," Britt told Jason.

Jason finally brought up Faison's grandchildren. "What about James and Bailey Lu? Are you going to kill them too?" he asked. Hallucination Peter then appeared to inform Anna that Jason was just trying to confuse her. Jason reasoned that if she did this, she'd give Faison what he wanted. Faison would have turned her into a cold-blooded killer. Anna seemed shaky, but she didn't put down the gun.

Do Rocco and Scout make a cute couple? Should Alexis just sue for custody already? Sound off in the comments.
