Police surrounded the Metro Court Hotel and watched as Sam jumped off of the hotel and ran toward them to warn them about the hotel being about to explode. Nikolas ran out of the hotel with Robin in his arms. He laid her down, and Patrick ran over to check on her condition. Sam and Nikolas yelled for their loved ones as an explosion rocked the hotel.
12 hours earlier in Port Charles:
Bobbie tracked down Jason at the coffee shop. She asked him to help Carly deal with the Sonny situation before Carly did something crazy.
Mr. Craig, disguised in a ski mask and black clothing, told everyone to stay where they were and not to move. He told them that his men were going to go around the room with bags and wanted everyone to put all of their valuables inside the bags. Sam tried to push the silent alarm behind the service desk, but Mr. Craig noticed it and told her to put her hands up where he could see them. She did manage to activate the alarm somehow because the police responded on the scene outside the front entrance of the hotel.
Jason also showed up at the hotel and looked inside the window before the hostage-takers painted all the windows black. Jason saw what was going on and reported to Mac what he had seen. Mac set up the SWAT team and his other cops. He told Jason that they had a protocol they followed in hostage situations. Luke showed up and learned from Lucky who was inside the hotel because of the hospital fundraiser.
Elizabeth took out her cell phone and tried to get Lucky's help, but Mr. Craig noticed her and had his men grab for the cell phone and rough-handle her a little bit. Emily yelled at them to be gentle because Elizabeth was pregnant. Maxie was standing behind the desk with Sam and made a remark to Elizabeth about how Elizabeth shouldn't endanger Lucky's baby by trying to be heroic because it was stupid. Carly stepped up and told Mr. Craig off. She told him she was one of the owners of the hotel and that she was responsible for the welfare of her guests and employees. Mr. Craig ordered everyone to take out their cell phones, beepers, or pagers and put them in the bag. Mr. Craig ordered Carly to take off her engagement ring and put it in the bag also.
Carly refused to give up her ring, in order to keep Mr. Craig talking so she could try to remember why his voice was so familiar to her. Sonny stepped in and tried to get Mr. Craig to let her keep the ring. Carly gave up the ring anyway. Carly and Sonny tried to create a diversion so that Sam could set off another silent alarm and close the vault shut. Sonny whispered to Carly that he didn't think it was just a simple robbery and that Mr. Craig and his men were there to look for something. Sonny thought it involved the shipment that Alcazar was waiting for that had made Alcazar desperate enough to try to kill Sonny when Sonny had learned about it. Sonny went over to one of the clerks and asked if Alcazar had stored anything in the vault earlier that day.
Carly confronted Mr. Craig again to divert attention onto herself. Mr. Craig had two of his men go into the vault and take a hostage with them. They grabbed Maxie, who protested as they dragged her into the vault room. Sam hit the button behind the desk to close the vault down, and Sonny motioned to her not to do it just as Mr. Craig turned around.
A man returned to report to Mr. Craig that the vault door had shut completely, he hadn't been able get the briefcase out with him, and the other two were sealed inside. Carly informed Mr. Craig that the vault would remained sealed for the next twelve hours, and only then could they activate it to open again. Mr. Craig tried to not let it bother him. Sonny told Mr. Craig to leave while he was able because a lot could happen in twelve hours; Sonny said the police might enter and shoot them before Mr. Craig could get into the vault.
Suddenly Mac's voice could be heard from outside, announcing the police's arrival and stating that the building was surrounded. Mr. Craig told everyone that he wouldn't be able to escape and took everyone as hostages. He notified everyone that he wanted them to play a game. He had some sort of black box in his hand and told them he was going to toss it to someone, and he wanted them to say their name and give themselves a nickname that told Mr. Craig something about them -- and they'd get points if they rhymed.
The hostages tossed the box around and did what Mr. Craig asked. One of the hotel clerks froze and couldn't think of a nickname. Mr. Craig pointed a gun at the clerk, who asked if Mr. Craig was going to kill him. Mr. Craig also took Sonny's gun away as well. Mr. Craig shocked everyone when he took his gun and shot Robin all of a sudden for no real reason. He told them he'd done it to show that he was in charge and they needed do what he said, or they would be next.
