Zach drove to Oak Haven to see Kendall one last time before they transferred her to Shadybrook Sanitarium in Port Charles, New York. She hadn't been doing well since Aidan's death and they hadn't let Zach visit her, but since it was her last night in Pine Valley, they had made an exception.
He walked into the room and Kendall was staring out the window with an empty, vacant look in her eyes that made his heart break. He wished that there was a way to resurrect Aidan for her sake, but there was nothing he could do. He was dead and eventually Kendall would have to accept that fact and stop living in the fantasy that her mind had created.
"Kendall, it's me...it's Zach," he said as he took her hand.
"Zach, are you here to see Aidan? He's not home right now, but he'll be back soon," Kendall stated.
"Kendall, Aidan's not coming home...he's dead. I know it hurts you to hear that, but I'm not going to lie to you. I love you and I promise you that I will do everything that I can to make things right for you."
"Why are you lying to me? Is it because I left you to be with Aidan? Take it back, tell me that he's not dead," Kendall shouted as she hit him over and over again.
The nurses came into the room and inserted a sedative into her arm as she screamed for Aidan.
"I'm sorry, Kendall...I'm going to go now. I love you and I promise that we'll be together soon," he whispered as she quieted down in his arms. He kissed her on the forehead and left the room wiping the tears from his eyes.

He waited until she was asleep and then he crept into her bedroom. He filled the needle full of LSD and injected it into her arm. "I wish that it didn't have to be this way Greenlee, but the sooner you're out of my brother's life the better off we're all be," he said and then he disappeared as quickly as he had come.
Greenlee fluttered her eyes awake and gasped as she saw him sitting by her side.
"Greens, I've been waiting for you," he said as he smiled at her.
"Leo," she gasped out.
XOXOXO
"Please Collin, please let me go," Nora whimpered.
"I can't do that...I've waited far too long to be reunited with you, Scarlett. Write the letter to Bo or I will make that call to the men who are watching Matthew and you can watch him die instead," Collin threatened.
"What do you want me to write?" Nora asked.
"I want you to tell Bo that you've been so depressed over his affair with Lindsay and you've lost the will to live. Tell him that you're going to spend some time being treated for your depression in Shadybrook and that you need some space from him so that you can recover from his betrayal," Collin dictated while Nora wrote everything down.
"Thank you, Scarlett. Now it's time to go. You have an appointment with the doctor," Collin said as he injected her with a very powerful sedative.
"Where are you taking me?" Nora asked as the effects of the drug started to hit her.
"I'm taking you to Shadybrook of course. The doctor's been waiting a long time to get his hands on you," he said as he picked her up in his arms and carried her to his van.
XOXOXO
"Are you sure that you want to do this Kelly?" Joey asked as they pulled up to Shadybrook.
"I have to...the best stories are always written from experience. In order to write about what life is like in a mental institution, I'll have to experience it first hand," Kelly explained.
"I know, but I had to ask. I've put the microphone and camera in your wedding ring. I'll be watching you and If you ever need me, just say the word and I'll be here."
"I know...I love you, Joey," Kelly said as she kissed him.
He took her into the institution and signed the commitment papers. "I'll see you soon," he whispered in Kelly's ear before he left.
XOXOXO
Vivid hallucinations bombarded Marty on the drive to Shadybrook. She cried out in the backseat as John drove her to the mental hospital where she would be receiving psychiatric care after having stabbed Kelly and throwing Natalie off of the roof of Angel's Square.
"Marty, are you alright back there?" John asked.
Marty could hear nothing but Todd's voice. "You're no better than me, Marty, after what YOU did," he sneered. "You stabbed Kelly Cramer... and you tried to kill my niece."
"You're not real," Marty spoke to Todd's apparition. "The REAL Todd had plastic surgery."
"I'm real to you," he taunted. "And that's all that matters."
A few minutes later, John pulled up at Shadybrook and escorted Marty inside as the nurses brought her in on a gurney. Marty shuddered as a nurse who looked just like Alison Perkins helped her get settled into her room.
XOXOXO
Blair would never forget the day when she found her wife and legal partner lying on their living room floor in a puddle of blood. Tea had slit her wrists. Despite her happiness with Blair, Tea was still grieving for her husband Victor Lord Junior and her infant son who had died at birth. Blair had no other choice but to have Tea committed.
When she was brought to Shadybrook, Blair didn't leave her side. "I'm right here, Tea," Blair said as she held her hand.
"Don't leave me, Blair. Please don't leave me," Tea begged.
Blair bent down and kissed Tea gently on the lips. "I will never leave you," she swore.
XOXOXO
The incident with Caleb had made Sam suffer a breakdown. She believed herself to be Livvie Locke, a vampire. Her mother had no other choice but to commit her to Shadybrook for treatment.
"I hate to leave her here," Alexis fretted as she saw her daughter lying so still in her bed.
"I promise I will look out for her," Elizabeth said. She had been working at the sanitarium as a nurse to earn some extra income.
Alexis thanked Elizabeth, then she left. Elizabeth went to get Sam her evening meds. "Sam, it's Elizabeth. You need to take these pills," Elizabeth gently coaxed.
"I'm so hungry," Sam said seductively. She made a hissing noise as she grabbed Elizabeth and tried to pull her down on the bed with her. Elizabeth shuddered as Sam started nibbling her neck.
XOXOXO
"Sonny, open the door!" Mike called out. Sonny had barricaded himself in his house because he did not want to leave. He couldn't face this day. It was far too painful.
He opened the door with Mike's urging, and Mike could see that his son had been drinking. "I can't do this, Mike. I can't go to Michael's funeral."
"Sonny, I only want to help you."
"It's my fault my son is dead. Because of me, my enemies shot him. I killed my son!" Sonny yelled.
"No, Sonny. It's not your fault..."
"I killed Michael!" Sonny screamed as he began speaking incoherently. He threw anything he could get his hands on, shattering mirrors and windows.
After Sonny had ransacked his living room, he fell on the rug, sobbing uncontrollably. "Sonny, I don't want to do this, but I have no other choice," Mike said to his son. He got on the phone and called the closest mental institution. With tears in his eyes, he had to commit his son.
XOXOXO
Carly arrived at the funeral alone, barely able to stand. Her precious Michael was gone. How could she ever say good bye to her oldest child?
"Michael, I am sorry. This is my fault," she said as she stood over her son's casket.
Footsteps approached and suddenly a gun was pressed against her temple. She gasped as she could smell the heavy scent of alcohol on his breath.
"AJ," she gasped as he crushed her close.
"You killed our son. You killed Michael," he sobbed. "I blame you. You let Sonny Corinthos get close to him."
Very slowly, Carly reached up and wrapped her fingers around the gun. "If you don't pull the trigger, I will," she told him. She was prepared to die. She couldn't live without her son.
"Maybe we should both die together," AJ whispered.
Fortunately on that sad day, neither Carly or AJ died, but their families had no other choice but to have them committed to Shadybrook. Michael's death had given AJ reason to hit the bottle. Carly was only a shell of her former self as she grieved for her oldest child. Bobbie said good bye to her daughter as the doctors promised to help her.
"Get well, Carly," Bobbie said with tears in her eyes.
XOXOXO
"Come in," she called when she heard a light tapping on her door.
"All of your patients have arrived just like you wanted and Collin is getting ready to make the rounds," Allison announced.
"That's excellent, now the real fun can begin," Irene announced with a cackle.
