At General Hospital, Britt grabs the chocolates Brad has brought. He hopes he’s forgiven. She knows he didn’t set out to make an ass of her. He assumes she needs him to do something to make amends.

The doctor announces that she found Cody beaten to a pulp and has been trying to figure out what happened. He already knows. They head into her office and he tells her that Cody was at his aunt’s poker game and won big, infuriating her.

He asks her about the look she shared with Liesl the last time she kicked him out. He assumes something heavy is going on. Before she can explain, she gets called away. This isn’t a conversation she wants to rush.

ABC

Cody joins Dante at Kelly’s. The cop is surprised to see him off his couch after the beating. He needs him to answer some questions, like why he wound up on his doorstep beaten up.

Cody admits he won it playing cards and was attacked. He’s not going to ID who did it and doesn’t plan to stick around. Dante is surprised that Britt bothered stopping to help him. That’s not in character.

He fills him in on her stealing his and Lulu’s embryo and the time she’s spent in prison and on the run as a fugitive with Faison. When Cody can hardly stand, Dante insists on taking him to the hospital.

When they get to the hospital, they request to see Britt. She’s not enthusiastic. Cody tells her he doesn’t have any money. Dante offers to cover his bill. After they walk off, he quizzes Brad about working for his aunt.

ABC

Britt takes Cody to an exam room. He takes off his clothes and she checks him over. Cody tells her she has a healing touch. He brings up what Dante told him about her and says it must be hard to live up to her dad’s legacy. “Meaning what?” she asks.

She won’t talk about her father and wishes him bon voyage before walking out.

When Britt walks out, she finds Brad is still waiting for her. He promises to be there for her whenever she wants to have that conversation they keep delaying. After a hug, she insists she’s fine for now.

Meanwhile, Cody tells Dante that he needs to stick around awhile to heal. The cop is happy to hear it. After he wanders off, Cody spots Britt and tells her that he’s sticking around now that he’s found a reason.

ABC

Linc meets with Jordan in her office to discuss Chase assaulting him. Linc knows he’s already on suspension and suggests he hasn’t learned his lesson. She doesn’t condone what Chase did but suggests the courts may see this as a nuisance lawsuit. He asks what the options are otherwise.

ABC

Brook Lynn and Chase sit outside of Kelly’s. He’s waiting for a call. She wonders how bad things could get for him. Will the commissioner kick him off the force? It’s a possibility. She gets inspired and that makes him worried.

ABC

He demands to know what she’s plotting. Reluctantly, she suggests she go to the police and change her statement to make Linc look worse. He was just doing his civic duty.

Chase refuses to let her lie to the police. It means a lot that she would do such a thing, but he got himself into this mess and will face whatever is next. Jordan’s assistant calls.

After the cop takes off, she heads inside. Linc arrives and informs her that her song will be used in a paper towel commercial. He’s sure they could make more money if she wrote jingles. She agrees to that if he’ll recant his accusation against Chase.

He’s tempted but turns it down. The only thing he cares about now is Chase losing his job. Some things are priceless.

ABC

Chase arrives in Jordan’s office. She tells him how disappointed she is in him. He was provoked but says there is no excuse. She’s convinced Linc to drop criminal charges. He won’t be going to jail but Linc still wants him to lose his job.

No one was in danger and Chase had demonstrated he can’t keep his head. She wonders why she shouldn’t fire him.

Brook Lynn meets him when he walks out of the meeting. It doesn’t look like things ended well.
