The promo begins with a flashback scene to when Brad and Lucas had just found out that they had been approved for adoption and were going to become parents. Brad, happy, tells Lucas “It’s happening – we’re going to become parents!”
Lucas laughs and says “I know, I’m going to be a father!” They bring the baby home when they are notified he has been born. Then, something goes wrong – terribly wrong! Brad, with Lucas at work, bends over the crib to check on their new baby who they have named Wiley Cooper-Jones (uncredited baby actor). Brad is horrified as the baby doesn’t respond – he cries out, “Are you okay? Please be okay, little guy!” He drops the baby bottle he’s holding and starts to cry when he realized the baby is dead of SIDS, or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome!

Flash Forward Several Months Ahead
Flash forward several months ahead, Willow and Michael have gotten acquainted through a grief group at the hospital. They become close friends and she confesses she is not in the group because she lost a child but that she put one up for adoption. She tells him the baby is still there in Port Charles. Julian, concerned, tells Brad at Charlie’s Pub that Willow thinks she’s Wiley’s birth mother as a scene flashes of Willow holding Wiley up to her cheek.
At the Corinthos home, a scene flashes of Carly playing with Wiley when Lucas and Brad have brought him over, and Carly tells Michael it’s crazy how much Wiley looks like Michael when he was a baby as Brad looks nervous! Michael says he hopes Lucas and Brad don’t mind him staying close to the little guy – Michael becomes Wiley’s godfather. Brad starts worrying more and more that the truth will come out somehow and tells Nelle he’s about to lose everything if Sonny realizes that he took Michael’s son away from him!
Flash Forward Several More Months Ahead
Flash forward several more months ahead, and Wiley is fifteen months old now! Brad’s guilt and anxiety over the baby lie has caused problems in his marriage with Lucas! Lucas tries to get Brad to tell him what’s bothering him so bad in a flashback scene before the car crash that put Lucas into a coma for several months, and the two are arguing at the hospital.
Lucas, irritated, says “Talk to me Brad – what’s eating you? You don’t have to go it alone – we’re a team!” Flash forward again to Thanksgiving night – Lucas and Brad are in the car driving to the Corinthos home for family Thanksgiving; they intersect with a crazed Kendra Bauer (Michelle Argyris) who has placed Alexis Davis, (Nancy Lee Grahn) in the road and prepares to run over her! Alexis manages to roll out of the way, as Brad and Lucas are arguing in the car. Brad is crying, and tells Lucas there’s so much he hasn’t told him – Lucas, angry, shouts “What does THAT mean?” Brad shouts, “Wiley’s not the baby we adopted, he’s Michael and Nelle’s son!” They are then hit by Kendra’s car, and forced off the road where Lucas is unconscious from a head injury.
Flash Forward Again Several Months
Flash forward again several months, and Lucas has regained consciousness in Turning Woods’ rehabilitation wing, where he was transferred to from GH where he had been on life support. Julian and Brad talk in a hallway as Julian tells him they’d better get their stories straight now. By now, Julian knows that Wiley is Jonah. Brad tells Julian not to worry because Lucas doesn’t remember anything from the night of the crash – he had previously told Julian that he confessed everything to Lucas before the crash occurred. Julian tells Brad, “He doesn’t remember – I see. A man that doesn’t remember is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode!”
General Hospital Spoilers: This Week Lucas Remembers!
Up to now, all the scenes in the promo have been flashbacks – this is what is ahead this week; Lucas sits with his mother, Bobbie Spencer (Jacklyn Zeman) on the couch in the Corinthos living room as Julian, Brad, Michael, and Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattson) are there probably in a welcome home party for Lucas.
