She had to be honest with him, even if she risked losing him.
Brook Lynn says Chase was so understanding, but she didn’t tell him that Dante was the father. She knew it would kill him, and then he’d have to keep the secret from Dante. Lois agrees, not telling him that part was the right choice. Brook Lynn feels like she can put the past behind her now.

Laura and Martin Discuss Their Brother
At the hospital, Laura thanks Felicia for everything she’s been doing for her family. Felicia knows her family has been on a rollercoaster lately. Laura wishes she had never crossed paths with Cyrus. Suddenly, Martin appears.
Felicia leaves Laura and Martin to talk. Martin asks about Lucky, and she tells him he’s stable and expected to recover fully. He’s sorry it took him so long to arrive, but the PCPD was at his door this morning. He found out what their brother did, and now he’s missing. Martin doesn’t know how he could do something like this to his own nephew. Laura breaks the news that he also tried to kill Lulu, and more than once. Martin feels sick and blames himself. He wanted to believe Cyrus had changed. That his religious epiphany was real. Laura says in a way, it was.
Laura explains Lulu was one of Cyrus’ first victims. He was visiting her for months and injecting her with drugs, which caused her liver to fail. She should have barred him, but she wanted to believe he was doing good work. Cyrus almost killed both of her children. She goes on to tell him that Cyrus killed a lot of patients at Turning Woods, Sam McCall and Dex Heller. Martin wishes he had seen it, and that with his brother so upset he’d been barred from GH, but Laura says they both wanted to see the best in him. She says Cyrus claimed he was on a mission from God to release trapped souls.
Martin recalls when he fought Cyrus over the care of his mother, and Cyrus wanted to release her from her pain, but he stopped him. He thinks Cyrus turned his mission from his mom to others, and this will kill his mother. He notes it gets worse as he made a complaint against Jason with the PCPD for threatening Cyrus in public, and it turns out Cyrus was the monster. Laura says if they don’t find Cyrus, then they are all in danger. Martin hates to say this about his own brother, but maybe if Jason took care of him then they are all better off.

Anna Has a Theory
At the station, Anna calls someone and leaves a message for them to come to the station, and they know what it’s about. Chase asks if she has a lead on Cyrus. She says only one, Jason. Chase asks if she has evidence, but she doesn’t. It’s the lack of evidence that is troubling, and finding that cabin so clean made her think it was Jason.

She says that cabin was spotless, and it screams of a professional job.

Quinn tells Kai he sounds like someone else, and he doesn’t seem to care about football or the team. Quinn notes Kai hasn’t been the same since he’s been hanging out with Trina.

He explains that last night when he left here, he went to Sam’s grave and then to see Drew.

Jason asks why she thought it was him? She explains they found a cabin where Cyrus was hiding out, and there was no evidence left behind. The cabin is spotless. She wonders maybe Cyrus was never there. Jason notes if the place was that clean then it sounds like someone killed Cyrus and wiped the place of evidence. Anna asks, “If not you, who?”
Dante arrives back at the station, and he and Chase get the forensics report back on the cabin. Chase goes into the interrogation room and reveals that only two hairs were found at the cabin, and they are Jason’s.
