Dante Tasks Nathan With Questioning Michael
Confused by the discovery of a key to Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) house on Michael Corinthos’ (Rory Gibson) key ring, Dante and Nathan questioned if they had caught Michael in another deception.

The acting commissioner instructed Det. West to question his brother.

Meanwhile, Michael was in the Quartermaine kitchen with Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) and Wiley Corinthos (Viron Weaver), getting ready to take the kids to see Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) when Nathan called him to the station.

As Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor), Nathan, and Dante awaited Michael’s arrival, Justine and Dante decided to watch the interview from outside the interrogation room.

Justine praised Nathan for thinking to check Michael’s keys, to which Nathan replied that it was actually Harrison Chase’s (Josh Swickard) suggestion.

Wiley Gave Ric A Big Clue
Dante reminded them that having a key didn’t mean Michael was the shooter, and Nathan doubted he could get a confession from Michael.

Justine thought Michael’s words during questioning could affect if they charged him with attempted murder; meanwhile, at the Quartermaine mansion, Michael asked Ric to take the kids to Willow’s house.

After Wiley left the kitchen, Michael revealed that the PCPD had come earlier with a warrant for his keys. He insisted he never had a key to Drew’s house, and Ric questioned why the police were bringing him in for questioning.

After Michael went to the police station, Wiley asked Ric if his dad was in trouble, but Ric was worried when Wiley innocently asked, “The keys Uncle Chase took?”

Drew Looked Panicked As Willow Talked About Spending Time With Her Children
At his home, Drew looked panicked as he watched Willow excitedly talk about spending time with Wiley and Amelia Corinthos (Serenity and Sequoia Mork Macko), despite the challenges, including him.

Willow then welcomed Alexis, who came to oversee the kids’ drop-off but seemed annoyed when Willow hugged her, thanking her for the help.

Willow mentioned she was happy Alexis and Ric would be there to keep the kids from feeling any tension between her and Michael.

Alexis talked about her tough relationship with Ric and how it affected Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos). She advised Willow to set aside any issues with her ex for the kids’ sake.

Alexis Wanted To See Drew And Elizabeth Came With Cupcakes
Next, Alexis wanted to see Drew to check if his situation might upset Scout Cain (Cosette Abinante) during her visit.

In the bedroom, Willow explained that Drew could only communicate by blinking and offered to do whatever Alexis thought would help make Scout’s visit easier.

After getting a text from Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst), who was dropping off cupcakes Aiden made for Wiley and Amelia, Willow left the bedroom.

She expressed her concerns about her kids feeling distant, but Elizabeth reassured her that even if things felt awkward at first, they would reconnect soon.

Ric Arrived With The Kids
Ric arrived to drop off the kids, and Willow had an emotional reunion with her son and daughter. Once inside, the kids enjoyed cupcakes, and Willow asked Liz to stay for support.

Wiley wanted to save a treat for Michael, mentioning that his dad was at the police station because the police had his keys.

This reminded Willow of the day she put Drew’s house key on Michael’s key ring and told Elizabeth she didn’t know why the police might question him about it. Meanwhile, Drew blinked rapidly as Alexis updated him on Scout, trying to get her attention.

Drew Tried To Ask For Help
Eventually, Alexis noticed Drew was trying to communicate, but she couldn’t understand his three blinks. Feeling she was bothering him, Alexis said goodbye, promising to bring Scout to see him soon.

She went back to the living room where Willow was giving Wiley and Amelia their late Christmas gifts.

Pulling Willow aside, Alexis mentioned she had told Drew about Scout, but he seemed very upset, and Willow became worried when Alexis said it seemed like Drew was trying to say something.

Willow Dosed Drew Again As Liz Watched The Kids
Once Alexis departed, both Willow and Elizabeth found themselves in awe of the sheer joy radiating from Wiley and Amelia.

This delightful sight prompted Willow to proclaim that every effort she had made to arrive at this moment had truly been worthwhile. Subsequently, she turned to Liz and requested her to watch over the children while she went to see how Drew was doing.

As she stepped into the bedroom, Willow confronted Drew with intensity for attempting to inform Alexis about her plans. And without hesitation, she administered another dose of medication to him.
