The topic switches to Sonny. Drew wishes he would let their feud go. Michael isn’t about to do that. He’s determined to crush him and leave him to die. It’s already in the works.
Drew worries but Michael assures him he’s in the clear.
Willow vents to Carly about how angry she still is with Nina. Carly flashes back to reading the DNA tests again and then advises her not to let Nina live in her mind.
Willow says all of this has pushed her to a decision about finding her biological mother. Obviously, blood isn’t enough to make a family.
Willow doesn’t want to go looking for someone who could be as bad as Nina. She already has all the family she needs. Carly weeps and tells her she’s making the right decision.
In the stable, Olivia is thrilled that Leo likes his new horse so much. She and Ned tell each other how lucky they are. She takes her son off to get the horse some food and Ned welcomes the horse to the family.
Valentin pops up and suggests they name him Comet. They come around once a decade just like the offer he’s about to give him. After he admires the horse, he hands Ned a box of Charlotte’s old riding gear.
Valentin repeats his offer for them to work together before Michael and Drew push him out at ELQ. They begin bickering about everything that has happened since the Cassadine came in as CEO.
Ned refuses to betray his family but Valentin thinks Ned is the one being betrayed. Valentin assures him he can give him a suitable role at the company, but that doesn’t include CEO.
Ned doesn’t see what’s in this for Valentin. The Cassadine says he is being squeezed out too. Leo and Olivia return and Valentin exits.
Liv sends Leo off to get some lumps of sugar and tells Ned that he should sleep with one eye open with Valentin around. She tells him not to worry so much about his family fight. If he’s worried about being put out to pasture, he should make a deal with Michael and Drew.
