Anna, Jason, Sam, and Drew all cursed Faison for playing mind games, even in death. Jason asked to hear the provisions again, just in case they'd missed something, so Diane complied. She added that the man who'd been in charge of Faison's safe had died, and no one seemed to have any information of another contact. Next, Diane handed Anna a silver figurine in a glass case. She explained that Faison had left Anna the figurine, which was "Freya, the Norse goddess of fertility, beauty, love, and death."
Anna didn't want the figurine, as it reminded her of Faison's "sick obsession" with her, but Diane advised her to at least have it appraised. Anna replied that Diane could sell it and donate the money to a charity. Diane agreed to facilitate the sale after Anna chose a charity. "Anything else?" Anna wondered. Diane concluded that the rest of the estate had been left to "my son." She revealed that, while there was no indication of which son Faison had meant, the will had been written after he'd found out that Nathan had been his son.
Anna suggested that Maxie technically had a claim to the estate. Diane agreed, but she revealed that Henrik also had a claim. Jason hoped that Henrik would emerge from hiding to stake his claim. Anna offered to talk to Maxie about it, as she planned to see Maxie that day. "And that's the last word from Cesar Faison," Diane stated.
Peter set down a bouquet of flowers at Nathan's grave. He insisted that he'd never meant for his "little brother" to get hurt. He thought that the only way to make amends was to leave Port Charles, but he wished there was something else he could do. "I think you've done enough," Maxie said as she walked toward the grave. She brushed the snow off of Nathan's headstone and thanked Peter for saving her and the baby in the Crimson office.
Maxie continued that she was "annoyed" at all the flowers at Nathan's grave, and she asked Peter if it was selfish of her want no strangers near Nathan. "Not at all," he answered, and he started to walk away in order to give her some time alone. She said that she knew Nathan was dead, but at the same time, she didn't. Peter reassured her that grief was tough to accept. She thanked him for not trying to make her feel better, because only Nathan could do that for her. Peter offered to take her home, and she agreed.
A few minutes later, Maxie invited Peter into the apartment. He looked around at the happy photos and remarked that it looked like Maxie and Nathan had had a happy life. "The best," she replied. Peter wished he'd done more for Nathan, but Maxie called Peter a hero. She revealed that he was the first person she'd been able to talk about Nathan with. She added that he was easy to talk to, and he was "a good man, like Nathan." She hoped that Peter would help her tell the baby about how brave Nathan had been.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Maxie let in Anna, who had a gift for Maxie from Robin. Peter excused himself, and Maxie hoped they would have a chance to talk again soon. When he was gone, Anna told Maxie that Robin and Patrick had donated to the Port Charles Police Fund in Nathan's name. However, she also had some bad news to give Maxie. She updated Maxie on Faison's will. "Nothing tainted by that murderer comes into this house," Maxie stated sternly.
Anna understood, but she reminded Maxie that Faison had been extremely wealthy. Maxie yelled that she didn't want Faison's "blood money" and that she and the baby would be fine. She added that Henrik could have the estate, because she didn't want any connection with the man who'd killed her husband.
Drew confided in Sam that he was very tired of following leads just to get nowhere. He wondered if Sam was afraid that he and Jason would go after each other, but she thought they were "too smart to play [Faison's] game." She assured him that they would use the resources Aurora had given them to find the flash drive. There was a knock on the door, and Peter entered, wanting to talk about his resignation. He revealed that, after some "soul-searching," he'd realized that he wasn't ready to leave Port Charles. He told them that he had a life and people there that he didn't want to leave.
Griffin wondered if Mike remembered the words Griffin had asked him to repeat, but Mike only stammered. Moving on, Griffin showed him some pictures of animals and asked Mike to identify them. Mike identified a picture of a lion as a cat, and a picture of rhino as a cow, which upset Sonny. Sonny left to get some water for himself and Mike and returned to find the tests over with. Griffin's phone went off, and he excused himself, promising to be right back.
Mike shrugged off whatever answers he had missed due to his age and explained that he was only there because Robin had asked him to go. Sonny appreciated Mike agreeing to a checkup and promised that they would spend some time together when Mike was done. Griffin returned and divulged that he wanted Mike to have a CT scan in order to rule some things out. Mike was reluctant, but Sonny urged him to just get the test out of the way. Mike finally agreed, and Griffin left to set the test up.
Sonny followed Griffin out and wondered what was wrong with Mike, "hypothetically." Griffin asked Sonny if Mike had had any head traumas, and Sonny only remembered that Mike had had a "rough life" full of fights. Mike emerged from the exam room in a hospital gown and gave his watch to Sonny to hold. He revealed that Sonny's mother had given him the watch, and he didn't trust anyone not to steal it from a locker.
When Mike was gone, Jason appeared next to Sonny. Sonny confided in Jason that he feared he couldn't be the kind of son that Mike needed. Jason promised to help with anything he could. Sonny wondered how the reading of Faison's will had gone, and Jason explained the situation to Sonny. He promised that, if Henrik surfaced to stake a claim on Faison's estate, Jason would be waiting.
Ned and Alexis stepped into adjacent voting booths and closed the curtains. When they were done, they emerged to flash bulbs, smiled, and shook hands for the cameras. When they were done with the photo opportunity, Ned and Olivia went home to the Quartermaine estate. They discussed the race, which was "too close to call," until Jim entered. He assured Ned that "a few key votes in a few key districts" would make all the difference for Ned. He assured Ned he could relax, so Ned took to working on his speeches. Ned appreciated Jim's support, and Jim left. Outside the door, Jim made a phone call. "Run it," he said into the phone.
Ned thanked Olivia for her support, and she honestly believed that he could win. She went off on a tangent about all of the great things Ned would do for the city, and he joked that she should have run for mayor. She thought that he would better the lives of the people of Port Charles. Olivia's phone went off, and she stared at the phone in shock. "Oh, my God," she stammered.
Curtis entered Charlie's and made small talk about the election. Molly entered the bar and ordered "two of Julian's girlfriend's coffees to go." Jordan entered and told Curtis that Stella and T.J. were still out getting people to vote. She wondered where Alexis was, as she hadn't been at her headquarters.
Julian took the trash out and found Alexis practicing her speeches behind the bar. He thought she would win, but he commended her on always being prepared. He advised her that Molly was proud of her, and although he recognized that it wasn't his place to say, he was proud of Alexis too. As he went back inside, he told her that he would miss having "Madame Mayor" next door.
When Julian returned, Curtis informed Julian that he'd done some more digging on Stella's mugger. He'd uncovered that the mugger had gotten two large deposits into his bank account, one the day before the attack and one the day after. Jordan entered the conversation, and Curtis explained that it was about "throwing the election."
Molly kept checking the election results, but they still said "too close to call." As Alexis practiced one of her speeches, Molly suddenly got very upset about something on her phone. She showed Alexis the article entitled "Con Job!" Alexis read the short story alleging that Alexis was the one who had coerced Nora into getting Olivia Jerome to make a statement vouching for Julian.
