On Friday's
General Hospital, Sonny makes a deal with a new mobster, and is seen by Claudia. Matt asks Nadine out on a date, which completely catches her off guard. Jax tells Carly that if she messes with his investments one more time, he'll leave her. Kate tells Clarice that she plans to try to break up Jax's marriage. Lulu is about to take out her gun when Johnny grabs it from her and pretends to hold her hostage in order to keep her safe.
Johnny holds Lulu at gunpoint and when someone fires a shot, they use that distraction as their opportunity to head out on the run. Maxie worries about being named as an accessory in Logan's murder case. Lucky drags Jason into the interrogation room to try to figure out what he knew about the escape plan. Claudia tries to warn Sonny about his new business associate.
Carly defends herself and says that she is protecting her marriage - at any cost. Soon after, Jax gets a phone call that he missed a crucial business meeting that Carly didn't tell him about, which is a lie set up by Kate. Claudia throws it in Sonny's face that he can't seem to give up the mob life. Mac calls Maxie to let her know that Johnny is on the run with Lulu and asks her to get down to the station immediately. Lulu panics and tries to turn them in but Johnny throws her phone out the window.
Nadine tries to let Nikolas know that Matt seems to know more than he's letting on and is exhibiting odd behavior. Johnny and Lulu hide out in the warehouse district after dumping their getaway car. Carly shows up at Crimson to clear the air and get Kate to admit that she lied about giving her two messages for Jax. Carly asks Jax to admit that he believes her but he tells her that he can't. Word travels to Nikolas that Lulu has been taken hostage and he rushes off to the police station.
Diane tells Jason that he will be implicated since it seems that his move to help Johnny escape will be perceived as a sign of peace with the Zacchara organization. Kate calls Sonny to invite him over to celebrate after closing a big business deal for Crimson. He tells her that he has things to take care of first but he'll think about swinging by.
Mac informs Claudia that Johnny better surrender peacefully or the cops have been given orders to kill him. Johnny tells Lulu that he loves her and would rather be with her than anywhere else. Nadine goes to dinner with Matt, in an attempt to get some dirt on him. When Carly arrives home, Jax tells her that he's leaving her. Sonny meets with Karpov, the Russian mobster, and says that he won't come out of retirement but he can advise him about business deals in the area. He also demands that Karpov leave Jason alone and not compete with him in any way.
Jason is visited by a guy with inside information who lets him know that Karpov is making a move on the piers in Port Charles. Nikolas tells Lucky that he thinks that Lulu and Johnny were working together but he doesn't want to believe it. Claudia storms into Spinelli's place and tells him to find Johnny and Lulu right away.
