At Jordan's apartment, Jordan and Andre cuddled after they made love. Andre wondered if Jordan had any lingering doubts about his interest in her, but she smiled and admitted that he'd proved his point -- several times. Andre kissed her but pulled away when he suddenly heard strange noises spilling from her sound system. Jordan explained that the sounds were of an ocean and whales, which helped relax her when she was stressed. Andre offered to fetch them each a glass of wine and turn off her "sad whale friends" along the way. After Andre climbed out of bed, Jordan checked her phone and noticed that she'd missed eight messages.
At the loft, Lulu entered the living room to let Dante know that Rocco was asleep. Dante smiled and asked if Lulu had any regrets about moving back in with him. Lulu admitted that staying at the castle hadn't been any fun without Dante and that she'd rather be with him, regardless of where they were. Dante hoped she meant it because he had a surprise for her. Lulu was elated when Dante suggested that they begin looking for a house with a backyard where Rocco could play.
Dante regretted what he'd put Rocco through, but Lulu assured Dante that they had shielded their son well and reminded Dante that Rocco was young enough that he'd likely forget Dante and Lulu's time apart. Dante admitted that losing Lulu had been like losing a part of himself, and he was determined to not repeat the mistake. After he kissed his wife, he suggested that Lulu check her email because he'd sent her links for a couple of listings. Lulu grinned and jumped up as Dante's phone rang. It was Jordan.
Jordan explained that she'd just checked her messages and wanted to know what had happened to the eyewitness against Carlos. Dante quickly filled her in on what had transpired at the hospital and how Anna had hoped to force a confession from Julian by accusing Alexis of killing the young man. Jordan realized that Anna was heavily invested in the case, but Jordan agreed that Anna was right to question the timing of the eyewitness' drug overdose. Dante revealed that he'd received a text message that the security footage from the parking garage had been sent to the police station, so Jordan asked him to take a look at it.
After Dante ended the call, Lulu heard him sigh and knew that he had to leave. Dante confirmed that he had to go to work. Lulu assured him that it was fine, but she asked him to call her if it turned into an "all-nighter." Dante kissed his wife and told her that he couldn't wait to return home to her.
Meanwhile, Andre slid back into bed with Jordan and handed her a glass of wine. Jordan told him about the turn of events with the eyewitness against Carlos. Andre felt terrible for Anna because he knew that Anna had depended on the witness to testify against Carlos. Andre noticed that Jordan had grown quiet and asked if it was okay for him to talk about Anna. Jordan rushed to assure him that it was fine, but she was worried about Anna. Andre decided that he was more concerned about Jordan and kissed her, but he quickly sensed that her mind was elsewhere.
Jordan gently explained that she was needed at the police station, but she invited Andre to stay. Andre appreciated the offer, but he felt energized and decided to head to work too. He started to kiss her again, but Jordan pulled away because it wouldn't take much for her to change her mind.
At the police station, Maxie expressed her frustration with Nathan's lack of input in planning the wedding. Nathan insisted that he only cared about exchanging vows with her, but Maxie argued that the ceremony had to reflect both of them. Nathan relented and promised to help Maxie with the decisions after his shift. However, he warned Maxie that he didn't want it to turn into another interrogation about Claudette as it had in the past. Maxie insisted that she had more important things to worry about than his ex-wife. Relieved, Nathan gave her a quick kiss and told her that he would see her after work.
After Nathan walked away, Maxie unfolded a piece of paper that had Claudette Beaulieu written on it along with an address: 2649 West 49th Street, New York, New York 10019. A short time later, Maxie stopped by to visit Lulu. Maxie warmly greeted Lulu because Maxie was delighted that Lulu had moved back in with Dante and restored Maxie's faith in love. Lulu confessed that Maxie and Nathan had inspired Dante and Lulu to take the step because it was clear how in love both Maxie and Nathan were. Maxie squealed with happiness because both Maxie and Lulu's lives were in sync, and each was with a man she loved.
Lulu smiled and asked about Maxie's wedding plans. Maxie admitted that she couldn't imagine getting married without Lulu by her side and wondered if Lulu would be the "maid of honor." Lulu was touched by the request and gladly accepted. The conversation turned to Maxie's wedding dress. Maxie revealed that she intended to fly to New York City to pick out a dress -- and pay Nathan's ex-wife a visit.
At the hospital, Finn was stunned when Liesl informed him that Mr. Ellis had died. Finn refused to believe it and rushed to his patient's side to check for himself, but Liesl assured Finn that it was true and added that Mr. Ellis had gone into cardiac arrest. Finn checked Mr. Ellis' EKG reading as Liesl added that Finn had obviously missed a grave ailment, which had led to the man's death and proved that Finn was not infallible. Liesl was confident that an autopsy would shed light on things and expose Finn's incompetence.
Finn resented Liesl's snide remarks and questioned why she was in Mr. Ellis' room when she'd been assigned to work in records. Liesl reminded him that she was in charge of reorganization of the department and explained that she'd paid Mr. Ellis a visit to get an update on his records. However, due to Finn's incompetence, she'd be able to close the file once the hospital issued a death certificate. Disgusted, Finn left the room, but Liesl followed him and continued to taunt him for losing a patient. Liesl was certain that the autopsy would confirm that Mr. Ellis' death could have been prevented.
After Liesl left, Carly walked up and asked Finn about the argument she had witnessed. She feared that Liesl was mad about Finn and Carly's earlier request for Josslyn's records, but Finn assured Carly that it was about another matter entirely. Carly proudly confided that she'd managed to get her hands on the schedule for the hospital's staff on the day of Josslyn's kidney transplant. Finn was impressed, but he advised Carly to hold onto it because he couldn't be seen with it. However, he promised to help her figure out who on the list might have hypothetically been involved in the organ transplant. Carly was grateful because she was certain she would need his guidance.
Seconds later, Liesl returned to inform Finn that Mr. Ellis' family had declined an autopsy, citing religious reasons. Liesl conceded that it had been a lucky break, but she warned Finn that she intended to let the board know about the patient's death. Finn welcomed a full investigation because he was eager to know what had killed his patient. "We'll see," Liesl sneered. After Liesl left, Carly asked if Mr. Ellis had been the elderly gentleman she'd seen Finn with earlier. Carly's expression filled with sadness when Finn nodded.
"I'm so sorry," Carly said. Finn reminded Carly that sometimes patients died, and he assured her that he'd be fine. Finn announced that he had to get back to work, so Carly left. A short time later, Andre approached Finn to introduce himself and explain that Mr. Ellis had been Andre's patient. Andre offered Finn his condolences because Andre knew it was difficult to lose a patient, but Finn suggested that sometimes death was a release.
Surprised, Andre wondered what Finn had meant. Finn explained that he'd been referring to a spiritual release because Mr. Ellis had been in and out of the hospital with medical complaints. Andre agreed with Finn, but Andre thought it was a strange view for a doctor to have. Andre became concerned when he noticed that Finn seemed pale, but Finn brushed it off and claimed that he needed some time alone to process everything. Finn quickly found an empty room, locked the door, collapsed on the ground, and pulled out his syringe.
In Sonny's office, Sonny spoke to Max on the phone. Sonny made it clear that he wanted to be notified if Alexis filed a motion to dismiss Carlos' case. After Sonny ended the call, Jason knocked on the door and entered the office. Sonny was surprised when Jason told Sonny that Sonny might have a problem. Jason revealed that he'd tracked Micheal
