Cameron has come to talk to Alexis and he warns that if she doesn't let him in, she will assume that something is wrong. He can tell that something terrible has been going on with her. He has been following her and found her at her sister’s grave and before that, she was talking to her baby in some kind of trance that he had trouble breaking her out of. He had to practically shout at her to get her to come to and talk to him. She didn’t remember how she got to the hospital or even where she was for a moment. That caused Cameron some great concern and he even gave up a board meeting to follow her to see what she was up to.

Alexis is in the house in her get-up to make her look like Kristina. She has on a wig and has been applying makeup the way that Kristina likes it, to her face.

She has to bite the bullet now. Courtney doesn’t understand why Sonny doesn’t just take off with his family and live safe and happy. If he really loved them, that is what he would do for them.

He is way out of his head and his league if he really wants to play with the big boys. If he pulls a weapon, he better make sure that he means business or that may come back to haunt him. Shooting with blanks isn’t a good move for most mobsters.
