Carly didn’t care how Kate spun it, she wanted everyone out. Then Jax showed up and was caught between the women: his wife with the grudge against Kate, and his business partner who had overstepped a bit. As Jax tried to explain both sides to the women, Carly accuses Kate of setting up the shoot as a way to get to Jax and the two start taking personal shots at each other. Finally Jax tells Kate that she shouldn’t be discussing his and Carly’s personal life, and tells Carly to let the shoot continue.

While the drama unfolds with Carly, Jax, and Kate, Lulu starts taking bets on who is going to win. Maxie protests, saying Lulu is a traitor to Kate for betting against her. The two continue their personal/professional battle with each other until Maxie send Lulu to pick up proofs from the photography lab. Lulu takes the opportunity to play hooky with Johnny and take him to the Quartermaine boat house for some aquatic fun.

Maxie finds out what’s up when Tracy shows up at the shoot to tell Carly to keep Lulu away from Johnny and they’re at the boat house as they speak. Instead of getting mad to find out Lulu ditched work, Maxie throws on a two-piece and heads to the Quartermaines' to crash the couple’s good time.

The more this story unfolds, the more I am not liking Lulu as a character. I know she’s young and impetuous, but this self-involvement streak that she has and the way she flies off the handle at the littlest provocation is wearing on me – much like Epiphany’s constant presence around Robin is wearing on her.

Robin and Patrick scheme to get Epiphany out of the house long enough for the couple to have a visit and maybe some food. Epiphany has already chased Dr. Daddy away from phoning Robin for consultations or personal conversations. But the couple will not be deterred. Patrick calls Epiphany and sends her on a wild goose chase for faulty meds at the hospital. He then stops orders in Chinese for him and Robin. Epiphany catches them together and tells them that they should’ve been straight with her. Robin had been feeling guilty about lying to Epiphany and apologized for the ruse. She also said that it’s her pregnancy and her house and her uncle did not have the right to make these kinds of decisions.

Mac caught wind of what was going on and headed to Robin’s place to make sure Patrick wasn’t there. Robin stashed Dr. Daddy in the closet while she assured her uncle she’d be fine and she didn’t want to move back in with him. She also said that she wants Patrick to take care of her. When he protested and started berating Patrick, Dr. Daddy came out of the closet to answer the charges Mac made against him. Patrick’s declarations of love and commitment touched Robin, but incensed Mac. Patrick ended up in handcuffs with Mac leading him to the PCPD. So much for no stress for Robin, but thankfully, there seems to be a purpose to this storyline as Patrick and Robin get closer.
