[ sighs ] do n't tease me just 'cause i 'm your mother . dante : [ chuckles ] olivia : [ chuckles ] dante : what ? it makes you smile . that 's a good thing , right ? olivia : yeah . dante : after all the crap sonny just put you through , i thought you were down for the count this time . olivia : is that your , uh , polite way of asking me if i still loathe your father ? the answer is a great , big , fat `` yes . `` [ knock on door ] shawn : hey . mac said i might find you here . sonny : how was your trip ? shawn : oh , productive . sonny : yeah ? shawn : yeah , we 're looking to send some business overseas and here , you know , assuming we can keep the peace with the jeromes . sonny : that 's a big assumption . shawn : something happen while i was away ? sonny : as far as julian goes , no . shawn : and ava ? sonny : uh , i was gon na end her ... but i - i moved her in instead . ava : sonny is more than happy to have you here . what 's going on between the two of us has nothing to do with you . delia : then why the hell are you so mad at each other ? ava : because he 's trying to kill me . delia : [ coughs ] ava : what 's the matter , mother ? do n't you like tension tamer ? delia : uh , well , it 's not the tea . i think it 's my hearing . you know , roger always said that was gon na be the first thing to go . now , i actually thought that i heard you say that sonny was gon na kill you . ava : i did . as soon as i give birth to this baby ... i 'm as good as dead . silas : you do n't mind waiting in my office ? shift ends in about half an hour . we 'll go to dinner and ... sound good ? rafe : yeah , sounds good . silas : okay . [ elevator dings , doors open ] sam : hey . silas : hey . any luck on the investigation ? sam : uh , i would n't call it luck , but we -- we have made some progress . patrick : yeah , we have , and it led us straight to you . silas : i 'm not following . patrick : we found the car that ran us off the road and killed my son , and it 's your car , silas . patrick : it was you , was n't it ? you were out on route 24 . you crossed the double line . car came right at me and sabrina and emma . silas : i have no idea what you 're talking about right now . sam : wait a minute , patrick . do n't you think you should let me do the questioning ? patrick : [ sighs ] silas : it 's starting to sound a little bit like an interrogation . patrick : oh , we can arrange that , 'cause i can call anna if you prefer . sam : stop ! do n't jump the gun . no . no . just want to clear the air . silas : `` clear the air `` ? what does that mean ? sam : okay , a black sports car ran patrick and his family off the road the night of the accident . silas : oh , well , i own a black sports car . it must have been me behind the wheel . sam : no , i 'm not saying that , but there is more . a nearby garage serviced a black sports car for cosmetic damage the day after the accident , and we looked at the records , and it was your car , silas . patrick : you gon na deny it ? ava : mother . are you all right ? delia : oh , you just knocked the wind out of me . let me see if i got this right . your baby 's father wants to kill you ? ava : well , actually , it may not be sonny 's child . delia : you fooled around on a mob boss ? ava : it 's complicated . delia : oh , yeah , it always is . so , tell me -- who 's the guy behind door number two ? ava : [ inhales deeply ] sonny 's son . delia : you slept with two generations of corinthisises , one after the other ? i mean , no wonder the guy is pissed at you . i mean , any guy would be pissed at you , especially a super - macho kingpin boss . [ inhales , exhales deeply ] okay , just tell me . it 's gon na be okay -- everything will be all right as long as sonny is the father , right ? ava : well , actually , no . i 'll still be just as dead . delia : well , that does n't make any sense . i think you 're holding back on me . what are you not saying ? shawn : when you say you moved ava in ... sonny : i mean she 's living with me . shawn : in your house ? sonny : there 's been a few developments since you took your trip , okay ? i 've discovered a few things about , um , our friend and ally , um , ava . i put her on house arrest . shawn : why ? what did you find out ? sonny : among other things ... olivia was n't the only victim . shawn : what do you mean ? who else did ava get to ? sonny : listen for yourself . olivia : i 'm sorry , honey . i do n't ever want to speak ill of your father in front of you . dante : what are you talking about ? you 're entitled to your opinion , especially if it 's about sonny and it 's negative . he does n't deserve you . he never did . olivia : yeah , well , you know what ? was taught to forgive . and that 's what i taught you , and god knows i have forgiven sonny for worse than this . dante : mm . olivia : and one day , i will forgive him ... for taking up with ava ... but this is not gon na be that day . and we will never get back what we had , but , um ... you know what ? maybe it was n't that great to begin with . dante : well , i hate what he did to you , and i made sure he knows that . olivia : i do n't want this to come between you and your father . dante : what kind of son am i if i do n't stand up for my mother ? my only regret is i did n't -- i did n't get more satisfaction out of it . olivia : yeah . well , what did he have to say for himself ? dante : nothing . he 's pissed 'cause i called him out on something he did wrong . i mean , he let me vent until the end , and then ... olivia : [ sighs ] dante : well , never mind . it 's ... olivia : what ? what `` never mind `` ? what -- you think i 'm not gon na make you tell me what he said ? dante : when i asked him why he betrayed you , he said it was ... something to do with connie . olivia : connie ? what does she have to do with any of this ? michael : thank you . well , the police are on their way . kiki : considering there was no harm done ... morgan : yet . kiki : ... i 'm sure michael would be willing to tell the police that it was a false alarm if you and your friend would just leave now . michael : very willing . maxie : well , i mean , that seems fair . we 've made our point . levi : we have not yet begun to fight . morgan : what is that -- a john paul jones quote ? or was he , uh , `` i regret i have but one life to give for my country `` ? michael : that 's nathan hale . kiki : that was impressive . morgan : well , whatever . he was the straight `` a `` student , and our parents wanted him to be a lawyer , but that was before he went to prison for manslaughter , so ... maxie : morgan ! michael is not gon na be slaughtering anyone . right , michael ? michael : given that the cops are on their way , no , not at the moment . [ sighs ] but what i 'd like to do is avoid this whole conflict . maxie , you 're a friend . i do n't want any trouble with you , and i - i definitely do n't want you arrested . maxie : that 's very sweet -- levi : an arrest would give us a media platform . the more attention we can draw to the cause , the better . morgan : yeah , it 's gon na be kind of hard to work the media from a jail cell . i do n't think you 're gon na have too many people tweeting on your behalf . maxie : he has a point . levi : but we have the moral high ground . this revitalization project is just a front for big business . michael : it 's an investment in the city of port charles . morgan : seriously , dude , there 's enough problems in the world . why are you trying to create them where they do n't exist ? kiki : it 's very simple . he 's trying to impress his girlfriend . levi : this is just so that elq can run out the honest , hardworking people of this neighborhood . morgan : what ? you mean the homeless people ? levi : you want to flatten the buildings and replace them with glass towers and wyndhams . i 'm going to stop it . max , i thought you 'd be by my side , but if you 're not committed to this , now is the time to back out . i 'll go it alone . what 'll it be ? tracy : look , i probably should get off the phone in case michael and kiki decide to , uh , rechristen the office . ugh . speaking of which ... luke , when are you coming home ? i know we have a cover to maintain , but i miss your snark . i - i ... i miss you . i - i 'm working as fast as i can . suffice to say the wheels are in motion , and soon enough , michael will be out of elq , and i will be reinstated as c.e.o . michael has absolutely no idea what 's coming . [ alice blows whistle ] tracy : whoa ! levi : well , maxie , are you going to stay and be an agent of change , or are you going to take a backseat while change erupts all around you ? maxie : [ sighs ] an agent of change . levi : that 's my ladylove ! [ chuckles ] morgan : oh , ladylove ? kiki : i - i got to get out of here . we 're not gon na get any work done here -- not as long as `` occupy port charles `` is occupying the brownstone . michael : yeah . kiki : and i really want to talk to my dad . i 'm worried about my cousin . michael : rafe ? what 's going on ? morgan : just -- i 'll -- i 'll fill him in . michael : fill me in on what ? morgan : oh , it 's fine . mikey and i -- we got -- we got it . kiki : okay . good luck with maxie and the revolutionary , okay ? michael : thanks . morgan : good luck with your , uh -- with your family . kiki : yeah . thanks for being there . i really liked our talk . morgan : yeah , if -- you know , if you need anything , just ... michael : let me know . kiki : okay . i will . olivia : sonny blamed his hookup with ava on connie ? dante : not exactly . look , you know how he gets in his head , and he -- i do n't even know what it is . he ca n't speak whatever he 's feeling or whatever it is , but carly came in . he was about to say something , but she came in and got him off the hook . olivia : well , to be fair , carly probably knows what 's going on in sonny 's head better than sonny does . dante : yeah . well , according to carly , sonny slept with ava to sabotage his relationship with you because he felt like he did n't mourn connie 's death long enough , and he got together with you too quickly , and he was trying to handle his own guilt . olivia : yeah ... no . no . no , carly is usually spot - on about this kind of thing , but this time , no , she 's -- she 's just dead wrong . sonny and i -- we went out of our way to always be so respectful of connie 's memory . and -- and -- if anyone had something to be guilty about , that would be me . dante : would you stop it ? you did n't do anything wrong . olivia : and i would go hare krishna before i 'd hang my bad behavior on my poor dead cousin , and so would sonny . no . no . he may have slept with ava , but even he 's not that far gone . no . no . this -- this excuse stinks like last week 's fish fry . shawn : this is for real ? sonny : carly tracked it down for me . [ clears throat ] shawn : ava killed connie , and aj figured it out . that 's when you walked in on them and found them together -- not what ava led you to believe . sonny : ava wanted me to see what she wanted me to see . aj 's dead because of it . i broke my promise to michael . and i shot aj for nothing . shawn : why did you -- why do you even let ava live ? sonny : why ? because , shawn , if i kill her ... i kill my own flesh and blood . delia : you 're telling me that , even if that little bun in the oven is sonny 's , he 's gon na ice you ? i mean , that 's a hell of a grudge for a guy to have against the mother of his baby . unh - unh . i do n't buy it . ava : never could get anything past you , mother . delia : all right , what 's going on here ? ava : [ sighs ] i did something ... that made sonny unhappy . delia : i 'm afraid to ask . what could you have done that made him so unhappy that he wants to kill you ? ava : i think it 's best if i do n't delve into that right now . delia : well , then do n't delve , but do n't end up like jimmy hoffa , either . why do n't you call the cops ? ava : if the cops were a viable option , i would have called them some time ago , believe me . delia : well , why are n't they ? ava : because if the police found out about this thing i did , they would be almost as unhappy with me as sonny is . delia : well , what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into this time , ava ? ava : does n't get much worse . sonny is keeping me prisoner here until i give birth ... and then he is gon na kill me ... unless you save me . patrick : did you or did you not bring your car in for service the day after the accident ? silas : yeah , i did . patrick : you son of a bitch ! sam : no , no , stop . stop . silas : chill out . i brought my car in . i did n't run anybody off the road . sam : let 's just hear silas out , please . patrick : [ sighs ] silas : there 's not a lot to hear . one morning , i came down to my car . i saw i had a little bit of damage , and i just assumed it got sideswiped in my building 's parking lot . patrick : sideswiped in the garage , silas ? silas : hey , listen , i understand your -- i - i want to know what you think . i need to know what you think . do you think -- do you think there 's any chance i ran this guy 's family off the road -- that i killed a kid , and i just went home , and i parked my car , and i did n't bother telling anybody about it ? sam : no , no . of course i believe you . but , silas , we ca n't ignore the evidence . your car was put at the scene . i mean , the only -- the only question is , was someone else driving your car the night of the accident ? tracy : geez , alice . you practically gave me a heart attack . alice : oh , really ? is that even possible ? tracy : [ scoffs ] why , because i have no heart ? gee , alice , that joke was old when alan was in grade school . alice : well , some things never change , do they ? tracy : i thought you were supposed to be at mother 's camp . alice : well , camp is over for the day . thank god , because those kids really ran me ragged today . [ sighs ] i need to get back in `` dominator `` shape . tracy : hey , i know what -- there 's a gym downstairs . alice : i do n't think i can do that today . my stomach 's kind of hurting . besides , i just brought this by to show michael . the kids are doing a project for him to thank him for funding the camp . it 's a puppet show about the family . monica . [ high - pitched voice ] hello . i 'll take your temperature . tracy : i recognized the hair , if nothing else . alice : [ normal voice ] i like that one . oh , oh . and here 's one . look -- it 's me . do n't mess around with me . [ chuckles ] tracy : charming . alice : wait -- i got this one . here 's michael . tracy : the noble hero . how charming . alice : oh , and here 's my favorite . you . tracy : fangs ? alice : it 's the prototype . tracy : and what is the purpose of this little exercise ? alice : well , i suggested they do a story about the family coming together in adversity , but maybe a better idea would be a story about betrayal , being that i just heard you plotting to overthrow michael and oust him from the company . maxie & levi : [ chanting ] housing 's for the little guys , too . stop the greed of elq ! housing 's for the little guys , too . stop the greed of elq ! housing is for the little guys , too . stop the greed of elq ! morgan : the demo guys left these , so we 're in luck . michael : uh , no , thanks . um , what was kiki talking about ? i mean , what 's going on with her cousin ? morgan : he 's just -- he 's got problems . michael : what kind ? morgan : uh , it 's -- it 's hard to say . kiki 's not sure , but from the sound of it , she 's not worried for nothing . [ maxie & levi continue chanting ] patrick : so , if you were n't driving your car , then who was ? someone else had access to your car ? silas : slow down . sounds like -- patrick : it sounds like you 're avoiding the question . you were either driving the car , or you 're trying to protect the person that was . maxie : so , like , we 're not gon na pull a gandhi for the waterfront , are we ? because i have to be honest -- i do n't think have a hunger strike in me . levi : i have faith in you . maxie : that 's really sweet of you to say . is that a yes about the hunger strike ? michael : [ sighs ] look , maxie , this is your last chance , all right ? i really -- i really hope you take it . levi : is that a threat ? michael : [ sighs ] once the police show up , and there 's a crime in progress , they 'll take over . it 's gon na be completely out of my hands . levi : the pcpd can do their worst . not a one of them will sway maxie and me from our cause . nathan : not even me ? dante : sweetheart ? hey . how you doing ? lulu : is it over ? dante : yeah . yeah , the orderlies just brought you back in . they said you did pretty good . lulu : did it work ? dante : we do n't know yet . olivia : we 'll know soon -- just as soon as dr. chu gets here . dante : hey . i just want you to know you 're my hero . lulu : no . dante : no , you have been through the wringer for this family . lulu : it wo n't matter if the operation failed . dante : you know , all that matters is that you and rocco are okay . everything else is icing on the cake . [ knock on door ] [ door opens ] dr. chu : how 's the patient ? lulu : ready for the verdict . can i carry our baby ? shawn : ava 's pregnant ? sonny : yeah . we do n't know if the baby 's mine or morgan 's . shawn : well , i 'm sorry to hear that , sonny . sonny : not as sorry as i am ... or morgan or olivia . shawn : i 'm sure they have n't taken the news well . sonny : uh , no , no . they did n't take it well at all . so , uh , ava 's gon na , you know -- i 'm gon na keep her at my place 'cause i do n't want her taking off with the baby . i want the baby to be treated well . but as soon as , uh , the baby 's born ... she 's done . shawn : that 's a long time to cohabitate with her . sonny : well , you know , i 'm patient . she can pull -- ava can pull anything she wants . she can , you know , have her mother move in and -- you know , bring it . shawn : who are we talking about here ? sonny : her pip - squeak mother . she 's got , like , a bird nest . shawn : [ chuckles ] sonny : you know , and she 's , like -- her voice sounds like a blender . shawn : okay . sonny : she thought -- ava thought she could move her in , right , and it would drive me out of my head . but the joke 's on her because i can leave my house . ava ca n't . shawn : [ chuckles ] sonny : so she has to stay with her mother . delia : wait a second . you want my help ? ava : is that so strange ? delia : ava , we 've had , like , two serious conversations , and i 'm not blaming you . i mean , i gave you up for adoption , and you did n't find me till you were a grown - up , so it 's not like i helped you pick out your prom dress . but still , you wanted one thing from me , and i told you who your real father was , and we know how that turned out . ava : i do n't have anybody else . delia : well , what about julian , your brother ? i hear he 's some kind of hot shot . ava : bridge burned . delia : kiki ? ava : well , i 'm not exactly kiki 's favorite person at the moment , and even if i was , i - i ca n't risk involving her in this . delia : oh , so you 're willing to risk your mother ? ava : i 'm trying to protect my daughter ! i 'm sort of hoping you have the same instinct here ! delia : what if i do n't ? ! ava : i 'm dead . and i 'll tell you something -- sonny will be sure that my child never knows his grandmother . delia : well , you never let me meet kiki . ava : and i 'm sorry . and i 'm trying to make amends here . i do n't want to make the same mistake again . please ... mom . if you wo n't do it for me ... would you do it for the baby ? delia : okay , so if i help you ... what do you have in mind for me ? shawn : you know , this -- this play of ava 's -- the irritating mother . sonny : yeah . shawn : there 's got to be more to that . sonny : look , you do n't think i know that , you know , ava did n't just move her mother into the -- into my house for no reason ? i know she has an angle . i 'm just trying to figure out what it is . ava : sonny has an audio recording of a conversation betw -- between me and somebody else . delia : and you were talking about what ? ava : this thing that i did . delia : the thing -- the thing that made sonny so unhappy ? ava : yeah . but there 's another item on the recording ... about sonny ... equally damning . delia : you know , it 's a shame that you and sonny do n't get along because the two of you are made for each other . ava : [ chuckles ] if i could just get my hands on that recording , then i would have the leverage i need to stay alive after i have the baby . delia : okay , well , where does he keep it ? ava : i do n't have the foggiest idea . delia : [ sighs ] that 's not good . ava : but that 's -- that 's just where you come in . delia : oh , yeah , 'cause i 've been known to have a nose for valuable items . ava : i 've searched the house , but the problem is , my minders never leave me alone for very long . but that could work to your advantage because while sonny is watching me ... delia : no one 's watching me . ava : exactly . and sonny would never suspect u . he -- he just thinks that you 're here to annoy him . delia : and why would he think that ? kiki : hi , sam . dr. drake . silas , can i talk to you for a minute ? patrick : actually , we need to talk to you first , kiki . silas : my daughter 's -- patrick : were you driving your father 's car the night of a.j . quartermaine 's funeral ? kiki : yes , i was driving . is -- i 'm -- there was a lot of confusion on how i was getting to the funeral that night . morgan drove me here to the hospital so i could pick up your car . what 's going on ? sam : your father 's car was used to force patrick and his family off the road . kiki : so you think i 'm the one who did it ? sam : no , we are not saying that . no . patrick : what time did you get home from the funeral ? that accident happened about 9 : 20 . kiki : i got home at 10 : 00 , 10 : 30 . patrick : so you had plenty of time to run us off the road and then drop the car off at the gage ? kiki : i did n't even have the car that night . sam : you -- you -- just said that you picked the car up from the hospital . kiki : i know . i - i ended up driving , uh , your car from the hospital to our apartment , and then morgan drove me to the funeral , and michael drove me home . you can ask either one of them . sam : did you take the keys with you , or did you leave them at the apartment ? kiki : no , i left them at the apartment . patrick : was there anybody else at the apartment ? sam : [ sighs ] there was one other person , was n't there ? rafe . levi : well , if it is n't the blue heelers . maxie : i do n't know what that means , but i 'm sure he meant it respectfully . levi : you come to trample our rights , coppers ? silence our voices ? nathan : dunkleman , there is n't a gag big enough . dispatch said there were trespassers ? morgan : yeah , as you can see . michael : you know , they really did n't need to send a detective . levi : well , `` overkill `` is the pcpd 's middle name . nathan : yeah , i saw maxie 's name on the report and thought that i might come down and try and defuse the situation before anybody got in trouble . maxie : the trouble was here before we showed up . morgan : no , i was here trying to get work done . levi : this project is unfair , and wee gon na put a stop to it . michael : mr. dunkleman here seems to have confused himself with che guevara . morgan : yeah , uh , we think he 's trying to impress maxie . nathan : maxie , levi , you need to clear out , okay , before this situation gets out of control . levi : control is what we 're taking . we 're taking control for the people of the waterfront . morgan : dude , okay , name one person that you know on the waterfront . levi : and we 're taking control for maxie . she needs a distraction ever since you sabotaged her bid to see her baby . nathan : that was nobody but you , dunkleman . levi : this again ? maxie : levi had nothing to do with that . morgan : you have any idea what they 're talking about ? michael : no idea . look , maxie , nathan does n't want any trouble . morgan and i certainly do n't want any trouble . the only person who seems to want trouble here is your boyfriend . okay , can you just please take him and go ? levi : ignore me all you want , but maxie and i are staying right here . michael : this is private property . morgan : dude , we are renovating it . levi : you ca n't -- not while we 're squatting over it , with squatters ' rights . nathan : nobody is squatting over anything . maxie : how do you know ? nathan : because we share an apartment . okay , legally , you can not be living there and squatting here . so , vacate the premises now . levi : or ? nathan : or i 'll arrest you . levi : i dare you . nathan : done . [ handcuffs click ] lulu : what was the diagnosis ? dr. chu : it was what we 'd hoped . your issue was a septate uterus , not a bicornuate uterus . repairing it was a very straightforward procedure . you should be up and at 'em soon . olivia : so , there were no complications ? dr. chu : none . olivia : and no side effects to worry about ? lulu : the only side effect i care about is whether i can have a successful pregnancy . olivia : [ sighs ] lulu : can i ? dr. chu : after a short period of rest and recovery , i can see no reason why you should n't be able to carry an embryo to term . congratulations . olivia : did n't i tell you guys that everything was gon na work out all right ? dante : you always do . olivia : well , this time , i was right , right ? and now there can be a little brother or sister for -- for baby rocco . [ chuckling ] and a new grandbaby for me . i was gon na say , `` for me and sonny , `` but , um ... lulu : i 'm sure he 'll be just as pleased . olivia : yeah . i was gon na say maybe we should give him a call , but , uh , i guess he 's got enough to think about with his new baby , huh ? delia : and why would sonny think that i 'm here to annoy him ? ava : [ sighs ] he -- he made me his prisoner . i 'm in no position to stage some kind of escape . so i 'm -- i 'm doing everything i can to make him reconsider forcing me to stay here , and i 'm doing everything i can to drive him crazy . inviting you here was another tactic . delia : meaning you think i 'm a pest . ava : i did n't say that . delia : do i annoy you ? ava : you are doing me a huge , huge favor here . delia : well , i have n't agreed to do that yet , and maybe i should n't do it because you find me so damn annoying ! ava : please ! you have to help me . if you do n't , i 'm dead . and sonny will never , ever let you see this baby . delia : assuming that 's true , which , in your case , is a big , big assumption ... ava : just do n't abandon me again . i need you . sonny : [ sighs ] do n't tell me the family reunion has hit the skids . sam : rafe had access to your car , did n't he ? patrick : rafe -- his nephew rafe ? sam : yes . silas . silas : no , the kid 's not allowed to drive the car . he does n't even have a driver 's license . he 's got a learner 's permit . i ca n't believe he would be involved in this . patrick : well , it sure gives him plenty of motive to not report the accident , does n't it ? sam : kiki , anything to add ? patrick : please , kiki , if you know something , you need to tell us , okay ? my son died because of this accident . i need to know what happened . kiki : i actually came to the hospital to talk to silas about rafe . sam : why ? what happened ? kiki : he has n't been himself lately . i saw him this morning , and he was really upset . sam : you need to tell us everything you know . this is really important . if he 's in trouble , we have to help him . kiki : he said that he stole money out of your purse . silas : have you ever noticed any money missing ? sam : yes , actually . yes , i - i did . i thought i put it in another purse . silas : okay . so the kid stole some money , all right ? sam : no , silas . it was n't the first time . silas : what ? what do you -- sam : the cops brought him to the house a couple of weeks ago . apparently , he stole some money off of a street artist . silas : when was this ? sam : uh , danny 's birthday . he said he was just -- he -- he wanted to get danny a really nice birthday present . silas : why did n't you tell me ? sam : because i could n't . your wife showed up , and then everything got weird . i was gon na say something , but it slipped my mind . patrick : okay , i 'm sorry . can we get back to the accident ? if rafe was the one that drove us off the road , we need to find out . sam : oh , my god . yes . yes , it could have been rafe . tracy : hmm . i think that you are hearing things alice , which is not surprising , considering the number of blows you 've taken to the head . i think you should sue the wrestling federation . now , if you 'll excuse me ... alice : i know what i heard , and i 'm disappointed in you , ms . tracy -- trying to betray your own grandnephew ? tracy : i 'm doing nothing of the kind . alice : well , maybe you 're not in your right mind . maybe this behavior of mr. luke 's has sent you ' round the bend . but , still , that 's no excuse for accepting michael 's generosity and then using it against him to oust him from the company . tracy : it 's my company . he stole it from me . alice : it 's the family 's company , and i just ca n't abide by this . tracy : really ? what 's that supposed to mean ? alice : it means that mr. michael needs to know what 's going on here . tracy : you would n't dare . alice : [ scoffs ] he 's doing good work . he 's doing work that honors your father and his father . tracy : put down the phone , alice . alice : [ sighs ] michael : hello ? alice : mr. michael ? it 's alice gunderson . maxie : wait . wait . let him go ! morgan : get him out of here . levi : i 'm not going anywhere . michael : alice , you there ? alice : yes , sir . i 'm right here . uh , we need to talk . michael : yeah , sure . what 's up ? nathan : read him his rights and take him to the station . maxie : levi . levi , what are you doing ? are you okay ? levi : just making them work for it , dar -- maxie : do n't hurt him ! nathan : maxie , let them do their job . maxie : so they can abuse my boyfriend ? put him down ! nathan : stop making a nuisance of yourself . maxie : let me go ! levi : yeah , you give him what for , maxie ! huh ? how do you like that , west , eh ? nathan : max , you should n't have done that . morgan : yeah , that 's an understatement . you just assaulted a cop in front of two other cops . maxie : well , i did n't -- i did n't mean -- look , you should n't have walked in here like you had the right to tell levi and me what to do . nathan : maxie , i am a detective that was dispatched to the scene of a crime in progress . that is exactly my right . maxie : well , i think that that sucks , and you 're just a bully . and i was always taught to stand up to bullies , so you know what ? i 'm not going anywhere . nathan : i beg to differ . tracy : alice , i ca n't be held responsible if you do n't put down that phone . not another word . michael : alice , you still there ? alice : yes , sir . i 'm here . i 'm here at elq offices . there 's something going on here that you need to know about . michael : what are you talking about ? [ handcuffs click ] maxie : um , get this off of me . nathan : i will uncuff you when you calm down . maxie : morgan . morgan , you are my witness to police brutality . morgan : come on , dude . is this really necessary ? nathan : it 'd be helpful if you 'd stay back . stop moving . morgan : look , look , look . i get that she pushed you , but she 's not dangerous . you do n't really need the cuffs . [ handcuffs click ] maxie : [ sighs ] dante : i gave her strict instructions -- no more grandbaby talk until i give her the okay . lulu : she was excited . dante : i know , but her excitement comes across as pressure . lulu : i promise i do n't feel pressured . dante : that 's good because there 's no need to be . we -- we do n't have to rush into this and make any decisions . we take as much time as we need to figure this out . lulu : yeah . it feels so nice , knowing that we have something to figure out . dante : yeah . it does , does n't it ? lulu : [ chuckles ] sonny : you two are n't getting along ? well , i know that ava can be a little touchy sometimes , uh , but i know how thrilled she is to have you here . she wants as much face time as she can get with you . all right , so , i 'll let you two get back to it . if you need me , holler to max . all right ? oh , and , uh , delia ? delia : yes , mr. corinthos ? sonny : you know , it 's -- it 's gon na -- it 's gon na be great . i - i love that you 're staying here . have fun , girls . [ footsteps receding ] ava : do n't let him snow you . delia : i 'll do it . ava : you will ? delia : yes . even though you think i 'm annoying , i am still your mother , and even though we do n't have the best relationship -- in fact , we do n't have any relationship at all . [ inhales , exhales deeply ] but you 're still the little girl i gave birth to . and you 're the little girl that i had hopes and dreams for . [ sighs ] so , since i brought you into this world , i 'll be damned if i 'm gon na let that bastard take you out . patrick : sam , what is it ? sam : i remembered something . i ran into rafe in the park after gabriel died , and i told him about the baby , and he -- he lost it . i have never seen him like that . he was completely distraught , and i thought he was just emotional because the baby died , and it reminded him of losing his mother , but now i know . it must have been him . it must have been rafe who was driving the car . [ next_on ] maxie : ( to michael ) he 's trying to hold me hostage ! alexis : ( to ned ) maybe tracy and luke are not so far apart after all . tracy : ( on the phone ) get me an ambulance immediately . molly : rafe does n't do drugs . silas : we 're really going to bring the police into this right now ? rafe : ( to nina ) i ca n't wait to see how you 're going to explain this one . | on the phone , tracy gloats to luke that michael is getting in over his head with the waterfront project . alice hears her . michael calls the police to come stop levi and maxie 's sit - in at bobbie 's old brownstone . nathan and two uniforms arrive . levi says he and maxie are exercising squatter 's rights . nathan says they ca n't squat in one place and also live in another apartment . levi refuses to leave . nathan cuffs him . maxie pushes nathan . morgan observes to maxie that she probably should n't have assaulted nathan in front of two other cops . nathan cuffs her , but she squirms so much that the other cuff winds up on his own wrist . despite tracy 's threats , alice calls michael to warn him about what 's going on at elq . |

[ scene_break ] luke : there 's got to be a clue in this photograph . laura : well , the boys are obviously being held in some kind of a warehouse . i mean , what are the odds that it might be nearby us ? holly : all things considered , pretty high . why else would they have lured us to this area ? dillon : if this were a movie -- and i know it 's not -- the villains would use your sons as bait to lead you to wherever they wanted you to go . they could be halfway across the world . lulu : dillon 's right , dad . this warehouse could be anywhere . we need more to go on before we start searching . luke : i 've got something . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : denise demuccio . ah , yes . i read about her in the paper -- ava jerome 's heretofore - unknown twin sister by way of queens ? franco : that 's my girl . dr. obrecht : i have to say , denise does n't exactly strike me as your type . franco : oh , what is a type , really ? dr. obrecht : you are a world - renowned artist . and what is denise ? a beautician . you can have any woman you want . why would you go after a low - rent version of your ex - lover ? franco : okay , well , here 's the thing -- dr. obrecht : not to mention the fact that you know nothing about this woman . after your disastrous near - miss wedding last halloween , it would behoove you to take things slow . franco : you need n't worry , liesl . there 's nothing to take , slow or otherwise . we 're not really dating . it 's all just an elaborate ruse . dr. obrecht : ooh . a scheme . finally , some method to this madness . but what do you hope to achieve through this subterfuge ? franco : oh , to make nina jealous , of course . dr. obrecht : nina is a possessive psychotic . how difficult could it be to incur her envy ? franco : mm . you 'd be surprised . here 's the thing -- nina shows up at the metro court and she goes on and on about how wonderful things are with her new hubby , ric , and how i 'm all alone , so i had to do something . dr. obrecht : so you fabricated a girlfriend ? franco : exactly . dr. obrecht : makes sense . continue . okay , well , here 's the funny thing -- you know , i just chose denise at random , and nina somehow -- dih - dih - dih -- sensed this , right ? so she marches right up to denise , and she -- she asks if -- if i was telling the truth . and i thought , `` well , then , i 'm done , `` right ? but denise , instead of busting me , much to my shock and awe , kissed me . dr. obrecht : that , i get . t - the fake - girlfriend routine , that is . franco : oh . here 's the thing i ca n't figure out , is why would denise go for this ?

[ scene_break ] luke : yeah . look at ethan 's hands . lulu : wait . what are you talking about ? his hands are completely empty . luke : no , it 's not that he 's holding anything . it 's what he 's doing with his hands . his right hand , his fingers are crossed . holly : you 're right . dillon : okay , so , what does that mean ? luke : when dodge and i were doing gambling cons , that was our signal for jacks . lulu : jacks ? wait . could they be telling us that jerry has them ? laura : ah , yes . i do n't think we can rule that one out . it is possible , but look , ethan is also holding out three fingers on his left hand . luke : okay , so what is that a signal for ? three jacks . laura : three jacks . lulu : wait -- lucky is signaling , too . look at his hand . he 's pointing at his chest . dillon : right . would that be hearts ? luke : no , that would be too obvious . we always pointed to our wrist for hearts . that indicates -- dillon : your pulse . luke : very good , once and future stepson . but the problem is i only used these signals with ethan , not with lucky . holly : what else could it mean ? he 's pointing at himself . could he mean his name -- lucky ? luke : three jacks lucky . three jacks l -- i do n't know what that would mean -- three jacks lucky . laura : okay , so we 'll just put a pin in that . and what else can we come up with ? holly : what else could he be indicating ? lulu : i do n't know . something else about himself ? not necessarily his name , but -- dillon : maybe it 's an occupation -- who he is to other people . luke : following that train of thought , lucky is a cop , he 's a father . laura : a son . three jacks . three -- three jacks son -- three jackson . three jackson ! three jackson . lulu : okay , wait , um ... got it . there 's a lumberyard at 3 jackson road . it 's only a couple of miles from here . luke : what are we waiting for ? let 's roll .

[ clears throat ] i 'm sorry . i do n't usually go around opening a vein on people . michael : it 's just , uh , what you said before about honor meaning something , i -- i grew up believing that . my uncle jason -- he taught me that . it 's the way you 're talking right now -- y - you -- you sounded just like him .

[ scene_break ] jake : that 's funny -- your friend , uh , spinelli thought that i reminded him of jason . told me that more than once . michael : jason meant the world to spinelli . so if he noticed any similarity , you should probably take that as a compliment . jake : yeah , i 'll keep that in mind if he ever mentions it again . mm . michael : i 'm sure -- i 'm sure , um , you found this out from sam or anyone , really , but jason worked for sonny . jake : oh , yeah . he was a hit man , right ? michael : yeah -- y -- he was his enforcer . jake : there a difference ? michael : well , security and strategy were only part of his job . he was -- he was sonny 's best friend . jake : seems like jason was a pretty popular guy . michael : well , not with everyone , but , uh , he was with me . jason , he , uh -- he raised me when i was a baby . i do n't really remember most of it , but the first year of my life , he was basically my father . jake : mm . michael : my point is , he taught me about honor . he taught me about keeping your word . and he taught me that when someone comes after what 's yours , you take them down by whatever means necessary . jake : well [ clears throat ] did your uncle have any words of wisdom about how to take on your enemy when , uh , you 're outfunded , outnumbered , and completely outgunned ?

[ scene_break ] michael : essentially , the only way to stop nikolas is to get him to sign back his shares , and i do n't see him parting with any of them . jake : just to be straight , the -- these shares are like bearer bonds , right ? whoever holds them owns them ? michael : right . which is why nikolas is probably guarding them with his life . there 's no way for us to get our hands on them . jake : mm . actually , maybe there is . [ scene_break ] holly : what are we waiting for ? we outnumber the guards five to two . luke : yes , but even with three of us holding weapons , we 're seriously outgunned , and we have no idea if there are recruitments behind that wall . holly : so what do you suggest we do -- just stand here and collectively try to will them to let our sons go ? laura : we work as a team . we ca n't go in with our guns blazing , but maybe we can come up with some way to make an end run around those guards . dillon : so we need a distraction . luke : right -- something that will allow us to get past the gunmen without using firepower . lulu : i have an idea . laura : no . absolutely not . lulu : well , do you have a better plan ? holly : we do n't , actually . laura : well , think of one . luke , i ca n't risk those bastards getting their hands on lulu when they already are holding our sons . lulu : that 's my point exactly . they have my brothers . i 'm gon na do everything i can to help free them . laura : talk sense into your daughter . lulu : he ca n't tell me what to do any more than you can . if you take a moment to think about this , you would see that dillon and i are the best choice . luke : lulu 's right . dillon : the kidnappers have n't been dealing with us . they instructed you not to tell anybody , which means they probably do n't know that we know . they wo n't be expecting us . lulu : even if whoever masterminded this knows who dillon and i are , there 's no chance that those guards do . laura : there is a chance , and i do n't want to play those odds . lulu : okay , we ca n't just spend all this time standing around here , arguing . while the guards are busy with me and dillon , you three find a way to make a drop on them . luke : i 'm afraid we have no choice . we have to let her do this . do n't let anything happen to my daughter . dillon : you know i wo n't .

[ scene_break ] alexis : you want me to -- to wear a wire to get the confession tape ? anna : yeah , you just said that it 's too awkward and a bit obvious to constantly keep pulling out your phone to record julian , so if i can get the da and jordan to sanction a wire , then it 's admissible in court . you know that better than anyone . alexis : yeah , i 'm well aware of that . anna : so , what 's the problem ? alexis : the problem is , i ca n't keep it together . i keep getting too angry . i told him the marriage was over , and i kicked him out of the house . anna : then you just say something to win back his trust . alexis : to what end , anna ? really , he does n't seem to care that i 'm standing trial for a murder that he committed . anna : okay , then you have to up the stakes , alexis . alexis : well , what do you want me to do ? anna : just tell him you want him back . alexis : even if i could choke out those words , `` julian , i want you back , `` he is never gon na believe me , because i told him i do n't want him anywhere near this baby . anna : well , he believes you love him . alexis : okay . i 'm sorry . i do n't know what you mean . anna : do n't you think that he is so arrogant that he believes you love him in spite of everything ? he believes that you think it is more important to be with him than , say , your own self - respect , maybe even your own freedom . so you got to turn that around . you got to use his ego against him . alexis : i think you 're making a lot of assumptions here . this is the man who killed carlos and has no problem with his wife taking the rap for it . anna : okay , and what is his rationale for that ? how does he justify it ? alexis : i have a better chance of being acquitted than he does . you know , which is just an excuse , because i 'm sure he 'll be very glad to get rid of me when i 'm convicted for his crime . [ scene_break ] julian : so , that 's it ? no congratulations ? nina : congratulations . good for you . babies are wonderful . having a child is great . julian : [ sighs ] well , under normal circumstances , i might agree with you . nina : so if alexis is convicted ... julian : mm - hmm . nina : ... she has the baby in prison ? is that how that works ? julian : alexis is out on bail right now . after she gets acquitted , prison 's not gon na be an issue . nina : you seem pretty confident that alexis is gon na walk . julian : the evidence is circumstantial . i mean , come on , no jury in the world is gon na believe that alexis killed carlos . nina : [ sighs ] so if alexis goes free , it 's you , alexis , and the baby makes three , right ? julian : i 'm honestly not so sure about that . thanks . [ sighs ] nina : babies bring couples together . it 's a cliché , it 's a fairy tale , but i bought it . i was convinced that everything would work out between me and franco if we just had a baby . oh , wow , i could n't have been more wrong . [ scene_break ] heather : i do n't understand . i thought you were trying to work things out with nina . why are you asking me about elizabeth webber ? franco : i 've given up on a future with nina . she 's an amazing woman , but ... we 've just ... grown apart . i mean , for one thing , there 's the fundamental difference in how we approach the idea of having a kid . heather : is the real reason you could n't work things out with nina because you could n't have a kid together , or is it because you 're having an affair with nurse webber ? i mean , the family connection must be a little confusing , awkward at the very least . i mean , she is steven lars ' half - sister . franco : okay , elizabeth and i -- i - i 'm not -- i 'm not having an affair with elizabeth . a - and ... we are not related you -- at all . we have completely different mothers and fathers . heather : i see you 've thought this through . you may not be having an affair yet , but you want to . franco : i do n't know . maybe .

[ scene_break ] jordan : who told you that shawn was your dad ? tj : nobody had the decency to tell me . i overheard you and uncle curtis talking about it right here . although i guess he 's not my uncle curtis anymore , now , is he ? jordan : curtis . that was the night of the cadets ' graduation . so you 've been holding on to all of this for that long ? tj : i can not believe you . you 're always focusing on the wrong things . yeah , so what ? i needed a couple days to wrap my brain around this . you 've been lying to me my entire life . how about we talk about that ? ! [ scoffs ] i mean , even if you did have your reasons when i was a kid , i 'm a grown - ass man now , and you still lie to me . why ? jordan : i did what i thought was best . and if i had it to do all over again ... i 'd still keep the truth from you . tj : i came here hoping against hope for some type of acceptable explanation , some reason that 'll make sense , and instead you 're doubling down on your lie and then telling me that you 'd do it again ? are you serious ? jordan : tj , the situation was so complicated . you have to understand that . tj : complicated ? ! is that the best you 've got ? jordan : what exactly did you hear curtis and me say ? tj : why ? is there even more to the story ? more to the fact that when you shipped me off to go live with shawn , you never even told me that he was actually my dad ? like , how many times are we gon na do this , mom ? how many times am i gon na find out that you told another life - trashing lie ? you ship me away , because i 'm out of control ? jordan : no . tj : it 's because you were in jail for dealing drugs . you go work for the mob ? no . you 're undercover with the dea . and every time -- every single time -- i 'm the last to know . but , hey , i guess i 'm in good company , right ? because obviously i did the same thing to my dad , and ... [ scoffs ] excuse me . i 'm sorry . you did the same thing to your husband and to shawn , which really must suck -- two best friends both in love with a total liar . jordan : okay , tj , that 's enough . i 'm your mother , and i deserve to be treated with some sort of respect . tj : you 've been lying to me my entire life . jordan : your entire life ? tj : how could you even mention respect ? jordan : that is enough . just stop . tj : [ scoffs ] jordan : tj , everything that i did , i did because i love you ... tj : [ sniffles ] jordan : ... to give you a better life . that 's all really a mother can do . i wo n't apologize for that . [ scene_break ] nina : kind of late for you to be carousing , is n't it ? does n't alexis need you to cater to her ? julian : i see . so you 're of the belief that the expectant father should be waiting on the mother hand and foot ? nina : yeah , i am . julian : mm - hmm . nina : a supportive partner is crucial . julian : okay . so what makes you an expert on the , uh -- in this department ? nina : [ sighs ] i do n't know . i just -- i know what i 'm talking about . i 've done research , and , alexis , she 's probably high risk . julian : high risk ? [ chuckles ] well , you do n't have to tell me . [ scene_break ] anna : you are being charged for a murder that you say you did n't commit . alexis : `` say ? `` you know very well i did n't do it . anna : all right , so the only way to exonerate yourself is to use a wire against the man who did . alexis : do n't you think it 's a little dangerous ? you know , sonny is convinced he 's gon na kill me . anna : okay , do you want ' round - the - clock protection ? then we can arrange that . alexis : i do n't know . is there a budget in the pcpd for that ? anna : there 's a budget if we want justice done . when carlos was brought into emergency after he 'd been stabbed , i was there , and ... i wanted so badly for him just to name names , you know , just to admit that julian ordered the hit against duke . and then at the end , i believe that carlos was trying to say `` julian `` not because of duke , but because julian killed him . so he should n't be allowed to get away with that at your expense . alexis : you know , this mess that i 'm in ... it 's on me . anna : no , it is n't . it 's on julian . he ordered that hit on duke . he murdered carlos . alexis : no , but i 'm culpable in my own way . i am . [ sighs ] and it 's about time that i admitted that and apologized to you . anna : you want to apologize to me ? alexis : mm - hmm . yes . and it 's long overdue . [ scene_break ] heather : you maybe want to sleep with elizabeth webber ? either you want to or you do n't . franco : [ sighs ] i thought i did n't , and then nina confronted me and accused me of having feelings for elizabeth , and i really had to think about that . and if i 'm honest , i admit that there 's an attraction . but there 's a messy history between me and elizabeth . i did -- well , before the brain tumor was removed -- kidnap her youngest son . heather : that kind of complicates things a bit , does n't it ? franco : we work together . i like her . [ chuckles ] i do n't know . we 're friends . and i 'm actually really proud of myself that i actually have a friend . and i 've been working with her son . he 's one of my art - therapy patients . heather : is he as talented as you are ? can he paint pictures of his mama like you do ? franco : okay , you know what ? you were married to her father , so i was wondering if you had any insight . heather : i have n't thought about jeff webber in a long time , but if you want to know , okay . let 's see . he was very handy around the house . give him a paperclip and a spool of thread , and he could start a car .

[ scene_break ] lulu : are you sure that you 're not covering for dad ? tracy : why would i cover for him ? the man has left me more times than i care to count . he is a liar , a cheat , and an unrepentant scoundrel . in fact , i think i should swear out a warrant at some point . lulu : my dad is all of those things , but you still have his back . if he was sick , you would n't want us to worry . tracy : lulu , if you have n't learned that worrying about your father is a complete waste of time by now -- lulu : we both know that if dad asked you to lie for him , you would do it . laura : tracy ... look , i know that we 've had our differences in the past , but we do have lulu and luke in common , and if something is wrong with him , we want to know about it . please ... tell us the truth . [ scene_break ] franco : why did it take me so long to figure out that you were trying to kill me ? ava : i ca n't deal with you when you 're like this . franco : when am i not like this ? what -- what -- like what ? ava : you 're convinced of things that only exist in your imagination . franco : are you kidding me ? ava : good night . franco : no , i 'm not done talking to you . we 're not finished here . hey . ava : you watch your step . i tried to kill you , did n't i ? it means i 'm dangerous . franco : yeah , i know . what i do n't understand is how i did n't see it . why did it take me so long ? you threatened to kill me at the police station . you held a letter opener to my neck . you turned the metro court into a shooting range . and that was all just so you could maneuver kiki and her elq stock , because i 'd be dead . but look at me . i 'm such a lucky , little sociopath , 'cause you missed me , did n't you ? you hit that poor , defenseless woman . ava : it was n't me . franco : miss me , miss me , now you got to kiss me . hey . what do you think sonny corinthos is gon na say when he finds out you shot the mother of his child ? [ scene_break ] olivia : sonny feels responsible for me getting shot , when it was all my fault . i was just overreacting to one of my cockamamie visions . connie : why would he feel responsible for you getting shot after now he knows he 's not the target ? he was n't responsible for the shooting , right ? olivia : he swears he had nothing to do with it . connie : so , then , there , he knows he 's not guilty , and you do n't have to have him take care of you to ease his guilt . olivia : that 's not what i 'm doing . connie : liv , you 're staying with me , and that 's that . all right ? so , now you can just call up sonny and tell him that he 's off the hook .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : finding out you slept with carly was a huge wake - up call . yes , i know we were n't together when it happened , but it still hurt , and i had to ask myself -- `` is this someone i can really trust ? is this a man who could hurt me again ? `` aj : did you come up with any answers ? elizabeth : well , yes , of course , you could hurt me -- just like i could hurt you . that 's the risk you take when you make yourself vulnerable to another person . aj : i 'd take that risk to be with you . would you ever consider taking it to be with me ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] aj , i have made so many mistakes , and i am scared to death to make another one , but you 've changed . you are not the same person you used to be . aj : thank you for believing that . elizabeth : and i 'm not saying that we have to be perfect , 'cause that 's impossible , right ? i mean , of course , we 're going to make mistakes , but the real mistake would be letting you go . i would have always wondered what might have been . aj : wait a second . are you -- are you telling me that you forgive me ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] i 'm saying there 's nothing to forgive . [ scene_break ] max : cheer up . how about a blt and shake -- my treat ? milo : [ sighs ] no , thanks . you know it 'll go right to my belly . max : right . would n't want to look like a regular guy . milo : what , fat and depressed ? no , thanks . it 's bad enough i 'm in the doghouse with the boss , bro . max : so get yourself out . follow orders . keep your mouth shut . stop questioning everything mr. c. says . he does n't care what you think . he just wants you to do what you 're told . milo : [ sighs ] i know . i know . max : so ? milo : so , what if i ca n't ? max : then you 're gon na lose your job . milo : would that be so bad ? max : what do you mean ? milo : i mean , maybe i do n't want this job anymore . maybe i want to do something else . [ scene_break ] franco : you have n't met morgan 's father yet , have you ? ava : well , he visited my apartment briefly . i was out of town . franco : 'cause he 's brutal . you know that ? he 's , like , volatile , arrogant . ava : then i guess the two of you have a lot in common . franco : we have nothing in common , okay ? he completely lacks creativity . he 's predictable . olivia falconeri , the mother of his children -- whoever shot at her will wind up in a shallow grave in some pine barrens or something equally unimaginative . ava : i 've done nothing wrong . franco : right . what if sonny were to get a different impression ? ava : and who 's gon na give it to him ? [ laughs ] a credible source like you ? [ both laugh ] ava : [ laughing ] how would that conversation go , exactly ? franco : `` ava jerome took a shot at the mother of your children . `` ava : well , since my name wo n't mean anything to sonny , i suppose you 'll have to explain to him how your ex - girlfriend , a mild - mannered , single mother and art dealer from tribeca , moonlights as a sniper . franco : right . i - i can see ... ava : good luck with that . franco : ... why sonny would be filled with doubt if that were the description . ava : perfectly accurate description . franco : no . perfectly inadequate . ava jerome ... you are so much more ... than what you let people believe . [ scene_break ] connie : go on . call sonny . tell him , `` thank you , but no thank you . `` olivia : i ca n't do that . he stood here and told me how he had his place all tricked out to help me convalesce . connie : tricked out . oh , that 's very thoughtful of him , but it 's not his job , liv . it 's my job . i 'm family , and i 've got this really big penthouse with two extra bedrooms . and i will take perfectly good care of you . olivia : except when you 're running crimson , which is all the time . honey , you 've got more deadlines than you 've got hours in the day , and what happens when you have an editorial emergency -- connie : oh , like sonny does n't have emergencies in his line of work ? olivia : sonny 's got a staff . connie : yeah , of armed goombahs . i 've got rodrigo . olivia : honey , look , i - i ca n't put you out like that . i know how you value your privacy . connie : you ca n't put me out , or you just do n't want to ? olivia : what is that supposed to mean ? connie : i want you to fess up , liv . if you had a choice , you 'd rather stay with sonny than with me . [ scene_break ] carly : i want to know what would have happened if olivia had n't recovered . sonny : it does n't matter . olivia recovered . the question is moot . carly : not to me . you and i have seen some hard times , sonny , and not always on the same side , but we always , always took care of each other , and we always had each other 's back in the end , even when we were n't together , even when we were at our worst , because we always loved each other . at least , that 's what i thought . was i wrong about us this whole time ? sonny : you 're not wrong . carly : then it makes me wonder . sonny : wonder what ? carly : for you to feel strongly enough about what happened to olivia to promise to kill someone that you claim to love ... i guess that means you love her , too . [ scene_break ] tracy : i 'm sorry . i ca n't help you . it was me going through the tests , and i am fine , and , by the way , so is luke . [ scene_break ] ava : if i 'm as bad as you say i am , cough up the evidence . right . 'cause you have n't got any . franco : i do n't need any . you 're just an art dealer like i 'm just an artist . ava : you 're a quartermaine like our daughter . you and kiki are both heir to a lot of money and a big chunk of elq stock . do you remember that ? franco : mm - hmm . ava : do you remember our plan to seize control of that company ... together ? then tell me , why would i want you dead when i have so much to gain with your heart beating ? franco : because you just did n't think it through . you did n't realize how ripe and susceptible i am . you saw danger . you tried to eliminate that danger . but you missed . and so shame on you . so for you it 's just on to plan `` b , `` right ? first you get control of elq through me , and then you kill me .

silas : he 's in my office . patrick : what are we waiting for ? let 's go . silas : hey , let me talk to him first , all right ? i 'd like to get his side of the story . patrick : what side ? he ran me off the road and killed my son . sam : okay . i 'm gon na go after them so they do n't kill each other . are you okay waiting here ? kiki : are you sure i should n't go ? i 'm rafe 's age . i might be able to calm him down . sam : no , i think the less people confronting him , the better . just stay here , okay ? kiki : yeah , o - okay . sam : thanks ! kiki : [ sighs ] nina : uh , was that sam with silas ? kiki : yeah . yeah . that was . nina : what 's going on ? kiki : we 're kind of dealing with a crisis . nina : is silas sick -- or sam ? kiki : no . um ... something happened with my cousin rafe . ned : you look like you have thoughts . alexis : [ chuckles ] yeah , i have several . ned : you 're not buying this , are you ? alexis : that luke cheated on tracy ? ned : luke has never been known for his fidelity , but yet somehow , he was able to convince my mother that this time , things would be different . and , of course , it turns out it was just one more scam . alexis : i know that you have misgivings about this marriage . i mean , if i were in your position , i would , too . believe me . ned : so , you still think i 'm being overprotective ? alexis : i know more than anyone that luke is an acquired taste . ned : haggis is an acquired taste . luke was caught red - handed cavorting with his masseuse . correction -- two massage technicians . alexis : well , how do you know that ? ned : my mother caught them . believe me , it was n't easy for her to admit how wrong she was . alexis : you must feel really vindicated . ned : i do . but no matter what doubts you may have about all this , michael is convinced , which is why he 's letting her come back to elq . tracy : alice ? alice ! oh , god . alice , are you all right ? alice ! michael : alice was trying to tell me something about tracy . then , suddenly , she was n't there anymore . morgan : okay . well , did you get disconnected ? michael : i do n't know . it did n't sound like she hung up . morgan : do you think something happened to her ? michael : i do n't know . i mean , it 's alice , but she 's not invincible . morgan : well , where is she , michael ? michael : she said she 's at elq . morgan : okay . then let 's go . what are you waiting for ? maxie : sometime today . nathan : look , i ca n't exactly get to the key with the hand that you 're handcuffed to . michael : excuse me , nathan . nathan : yeah ? what can i do for you ? michael : something came up , and morgan and i have to take off . is , uh , everything okay here ? nathan : slight snag but nothing we ca n't handle . michael : all right . maxie : no ! no ! michael , you ca n't leave me here like this ! he 's trying to hold me hostage ! nathan : look , as soon as i get my key , i 'll uncuff myself and finish cuffing your trespasser and take her down to the station . maxie : no . there wo n't be any need for that because michael can just drop the charges . that 's what you 'll do , right , michael ? morgan : come on . come on , mikey . alice could be in trouble . michael : sorry , maxie . i gave you every chance . maxie : michael corinthos , i ca n't believe you 're doing this to me ! nathan : he did give you every chance to leave . maxie : if you knew the things that i have done for him -- there was this one night his stepmother -- i 'm not gon na give you the details to that story , but all you need to know is i chose a bad night to go over to my former employer 's house to check on her koi pond . nathan : koi pond ? maxie : yes . there was a storm . it was raining . she used to live right next to michael 's father 's estate . you 've probably seen the house on shoreline . it 's , like , the really huge one with the granite walls and the guard house . anyway , i was across the street at the wrong time , and -- i - i ca n't tell you this . could you please just get us unlocked ? nathan : look , i am trying to reach the key . maxie : oww ! nathan : stop squirming . maxie : i 'm squirming because you 're hurting me ! nathan : i got it ! i got it ! maxie : oh , my god -- finally . please just unlock us , please . nathan : okay , hold still . hold still . let 's go . maxie : i am holding still . [ grunts ] let me do it . [ key clatters ] maxie : where 'd it go ? [ sighs ] molly : oh , no . tj : what is it ? what 's wrong ? molly : i forgot the snacks . tj : you what ? molly , what are we supposed to eat -- the grass ? molly : tj , there is no need to get that upset about it . tj : if only we knew someone who worked at a diner -- someone who might be able to score enough veggie bacon blts to last the summer -- or at least till morning . molly : i knew there was a reason i liked you . tj : oh , you 're using me 'cause i got the hook - up with the sandwiches ? molly : hey ! i 'm using you for other things , too ! tj : do n't i know it . molly : [ laughs ] tj : it 's funny . i 'm surprised your mom did n't drop off some full stocked cooler -- a nice little thoughtful gesture to get you to move back home . molly : yeah . my mom is n't exactly the cooler type . and she was n't my only visitor today . rafe stopped by . tj : what did he want with you ? molly : nothing . he was looking for sam . he had to talk to her about something , and ... he was acting kind of weird . tj : no kidding . molly : and then he told me he had something to say to me , too . tj : let me guess -- i 'm bad and you belong with him . am i close ? molly : actually , he apologized for ratting us out to my mom that night at the metro court . tj : too little , too late , if you ask me . molly : it took him a while , but rafe finally realized he was just jealous . now all he wants is for us to be friends . tj : yeah , i 'll bet . molly : okay , you have a right to be skeptical , but rafe promised me he would never do anything like that again . tj : [ scoffs ] right . molly : was n't that nice of him ? tj : yeah , so nice . molly : but you do n't buy it ? tj : no , molly . i do n't . that 's probably because i had my own run - in with rafe . nina : poor rafe . did you ever know his father , stephen ? kiki : no . um , i mean , i 've heard stories . he was n't a very stable man . rosalie : i 've been reading about the family . apparently , the guy had a complete psychotic break after his wife died . he convinced himself he was a vampire . nina : how do you know that , rosalie ? rosalie : i told you -- i read . okay . so , the best part is stephen clay vanished from a locked room in a locked mental ward between the hours of midnight and 1 : 00 a.m. on halloween . kind of makes you wonder . nina : um , i think we 're getting a little off topic here . tell me about rafe . what are the details ? kiki : i do n't know all of the details . all i know is that there was an accident and dr. drake 's car was run off the road . his baby died . rosalie : oh , i read about that , too . the paper said the driver 's still at large . kiki : actually , they think that it was my cousin rafe . nina : oh , no . well , how could that be ? he does n't even have his license , does -- where would he get a car ? kiki : [ sighs ] nina : oh , no . kiki : they think that he took silas ' car . nina : oh , my god . kiki : i know . they 're out looking for him right now . rosalie : once again , dr. clay leaves his wife to fend for herself . nina : rosalie , this is a family emergency . rosalie : and how are you supposed to get home ? kiki : i 'm sorry . i do n't know what to tell you . nina : oh , no . do n't -- do n't you worry . no , do n't worry . rosalie will take me home . silas ' nephew comes first . rosalie : yeah . of course , he does . when it comes to your husband , mrs. clay , everyone else comes before you . sam : did you find him ? patrick : he was n't there . silas : i do n't know where he went . i told him to wait in the office . patrick : are you sure about that , or is this some kind of stalling ? silas : i 'm sure about that . sam : hey , i know you 're angry and upset , but he 's been nothing but cooperative since we marched in here and wrongly accused him of all this . patrick : okay , fine . i 'm sorry . we just need to find the kid . silas : agreed . sam : okay . well , have we looked everywhere -- vending machines , bathrooms ? silas : everywhere -- we looked everywhere , all right ? maybe the kid got spooked , all right ? maybe he saw all of us looking for him and he just took off . patrick : honestly , i do n't care how he left . we just need to find him , so i 'm calling the police . silas : wait a second . let 's think this out , all right ? the kid 's already running scared . do we really need to bring the police into this right now ? dante : uh ... bring the police into what ? silas : [ sighs ] tracy : alice ? alice , are you okay ? alice ! alice , please be okay ! you 're the dominator ! this is tracy quartermaine . i 'm at elq on the fifth floor . a woman has collapsed . no , she 's not conscious ! she 's lying passed out on the floor ! get me an ambulance immediately ! alice ... hang in there . help is on the way . morgan : oh , my god . oh , my god ! dominator ! tracy , what happened ? ! michael : what happened ? alexis : tracy 's back at elq ? ned : she showed up , hat in hand , after she caught luke cheating . she even apologized to michael . alexis : your mother apologized ? ned : that 's when she was brought back into the company . alexis : just like that ? ned : well , she had to make a case for herself . she told him that she wanted to work with him and help repair the damage to the company . alexis : and he believed her ? ned : of course he did n't . michael may be forgiving to a fault , but he 's still a quartermaine . he asked her to prove that this marriage really was over . and so she did . alexis : the annulment papers ? ned : would you please make sure that this is on the up and up ? i want to be absolutely certain that luke ca n't get his hands on my mother 's money -- or , worse , the company . alexis : i can take a look at these , sure , but , uh ... ned : what ? alexis : ... i 'm wondering -- you think that luke is pulling a fast one on tracy , and i 'm thinking maybe tracy 's pulling a fast one ... on you . nathan : wh - where 'd it go ? maxie : how would i know ? you 're the one that threw it . nathan : i did n't throw it . i lost my grip on it and it flew out of my hand , thanks to you . maxie : yeah , blame the victim . can we please just find the stupid key ? nathan : what are you doing ? maxie : i 'm looking for it . it went over here . nathan : no , it went over there . maxie : could you please stop pulling me ? nathan : stop moving around . maxie : how can i move ? we 're handcuffed together . or have you forgotten ? nathan : trust me -- i have n't forgotten . maxie : [ sighs ] nathan : look , can we just cooperate and pick a direction and go in it ? maxie : fine . i 'm gon na go ... that direction , which means that you are , too . nathan : fine . please , after you . tj : i ran in to rafe a little while back here in the park , and , as usual , he was being a jerk . molly : you two do bring out the worst in each other . tj : well , he started attacking my mother -- and your father , now that i 'm thinking about it . when i tried to give it back to him a little bit , rafe punched me . molly : he hit you ? ! tj : yeah . i guess i hit a nerve . molly : i mean , i know you two have thrown punches before , but rafe seemed genuinely sorry . i ca n't believe he would do that . tj : i can . molly : why ? tj : because of the drugs . patrick : dante , we have a situation . silas : potential situation . patrick : i could really use you right now . dante : guys , listen -- i 'm here with my wife . she 's just had surgery . silas : go back to your wife . we 'll handle this . patrick : it 's an emergency , dante . olivia : honey , i can go down and sit with lulu . it seems like you need to be here for whatever this is . dante : okay . thanks . olivia : okay , honey . i 'll let lulu know what 's going on . dante : yeah . what 's going on ? what 's the potential situation ? patrick : we found the person that ran us off the road and killed my son . silas : think we found him . dante : well , who is it ? sam : silas ' nephew , rafe kovitch . rosalie : home at last , mrs. clay . now just give me one second , and i 'll get you on the nice , comfy couch and make you a nice cup of tea . nina : this is great . oh , this is just fantastic . rosalie : what are you doing ? sit down . we do n't know if anyone 's here . nina : oh , yeah . we do . we do , because we just left silas ' dippy love child when she was running around the hospital looking for his cokehead nephew . rosalie : you should still let me check . nina : whatever . [ sighs ] this day is horrible . it 's a horrible day . it was bad enough that i had to be prodded and probed by that pervy physical therapist . rosalie : for pete 's sake . he touched you for a nanosecond , and you backhanded him . nina : we bought him off fairly easily , did n't we -- student loans and all ? seriously , how expensive are student loans these days ? rosalie : yeah , do n't even go there . why do you think i put up with you ? nina : you like me . you just do n't want to admit it . rosalie : i sympathize with your cause , and i like what you pay me . nina : that 's good enough ... i guess . anyway , when we handled travis , i just -- [ sighs ] i thought that i would have some quiet times with silas . we could come back here and reminisce about the old times . rosalie : so , you reminisce tomorrow . no big deal . nina : no big deal ? really ? no big deal ? that 's so easy for you to say . you do n't have to relive those memories , do you ? you do n't have to think about the truly happy times that we had together . you do n't have to put on a smile and bravely just nod your head while your husband walks out the door to go on a date with his trailer - trash mistress . i mean , i was -- oh . i was doing so well breaking them up . i was making so much progress . and then his cokehead nephew has to put them back together . nina : oh . rafe . rafe : aunt nina . nina : uh , i 'm surprised to see you . i did n't think anyone was here . rafe : yeah . i , uh -- i got that . so , you 're -- you 're up and about now . nina : yes . it 's a miracle . we 've been doing physical therapy . you would n't believe the progress i 've made . rafe : you 're right . i would n't . rosalie : yeah . we were just trying out these exercises that the physical therapist gave to mrs. clay . this is the first time she 's been able to stand on her own . we wanted to surprise the good doctor when he got home . nina : oh , he 's gon na be so excited , do n't you think ? rafe : oh , yeah . i 'm sure your cheating husband and his trailer - trash girlfriend are gon na love hearing how you 're planning on breaking them up . i ca n't wait to see how you 're gon na explain this one . nina : i 'm not gon na explain this one . what do you have to say about it , baby killer ? dante : okay . so , the last anyone saw of rafe , he was headed to your office ? silas : yes . patrick : the door was wide open . he was n't there . dante : okay . we 're gon na find this kid . how 's he traveling ? silas : he usually takes the bus . wait a minute . dante : what ? silas : when i told him to wait in my office , the door was locked , so i gave him my keys . dante : your office keys ? silas : i keep all the keys on the same ring , including my car keys . molly : drugs ? what are you talking about ? rafe does n't do drugs . tj : maybe once upon a time , he did n't , but he sure does now . molly : oh , my god ! this is awful ! wait . how do you know he 's doing drugs ? tj : i saw him snorting coke here in the park . molly : what ? ! tj : yeah . on the bench , out in the open , in the middle of the day -- the idiot . anyway , when i called him on it , he started trash - talking my mom , saying that he was only doing drugs but my mom was worse because she was selling them . molly : oh , my god ! why did n't you tell me about this ? ! tj : i was going to , but you had so much stuff going on with your dad , you had enough to deal with . molly : well , i appreciate you thinking about me , but rafe needs help . maybe that 's why he was acting so weird . tj : what do you mean , weird ? how ? molly : i have to talk to rafe . ned : why would my mother pull a fast one on me after she caught luke cheating ? alexis : because maybe she did n't catch him cheating . maybe this is just a ploy to get her foot into the door at elq . ned : so , you 're saying my mother is lying to me ? alexis : is that so out of the realm of possibilities ? ned : if only it were . alexis : maybe the split is an elaborate scheme . maybe tracy and luke are not so far apart , after all . tracy : i do n't know what happened . i - i - i just walked in , and she was unconscious on the floor . michael : did you call 911 or the paramedics ? tracy : i did call 911 , and , yes , they 're on the way ! morgan : i do n't think she can wait . hey , dominator . hey ! hey ! it 's me -- morgan ! come on . oh , ma i ca n't get a pulse . [ breathing heavily ] hold on , dominator . it 's gon na be okay . nathan : [ sighs ] maxie : i ca n't believe it ! we searched this whole place ! nathan : yeah , we did . maxie : we looked everywhere and found ... nathan : nothing . maxie : that key is ... nathan : nowhere ... maxie : which does not make any sense . it could n't have just , like , disappeared . i mean , that would defy all laws of science and physics . nathan : i did n't realize you paid a lot of attention to the laws of science and physics . maxie : well , i do when it involves a missing handcuff key . i mean , one minute , it 's here , and the next , it 's not ? no . [ scoffs ] unless we discovered a rift in the time - space continuum . i used to know someone who would have been thrilled about that . nathan : it 's probably more likely that it went under a grate or loose floorboard or something . maxie : okay . still ... we do n't need to be freaking out . nathan : not that i 'm gon na disagree with you , but why not ? maxie : because that ca n't be the only handcuff key that exists . i mean , there are others , right ? we 're not gon na be handcuffed to each other for the rest of our lives , are we ? nathan : relax . relax . there are plenty of spare keys down at the station . maxie : well , why do n't you call the station and get them to send one over here ? nathan : i ca n't do that . maxie : what do you mean , you ca n't call the station ? you do have a phone , do n't you ? nathan : yes , i have a phone , but i 'm not gon na use it to call the station and tell everybody that i work with that i accidentally handcuffed myself to a perp . maxie : a perp ? you say that like i 'm some common criminal . nathan : [ sighs ] where to begin ? maxie : what 's that supposed to mean ? nathan : when i arrest somebody , they then , by definition , become a perp . maxie : well , if you want to get technical about it . nathan : besides ... i 've seen your rap sheet . maxie : you ... that 's private . nathan : i will concede this -- while you are definitely a criminal , there is nothing common about you . maxie : okay . well , this uncommon criminal is n't gon na spend one more second handcuffed to you because you wo n't call the station and tell everyone you made a mistake . nathan : hey , look -- you need to be quiet so we can regroup . maxie : no . in fact , i think your superiors need to know all the mistakes you make so they know what kind of cop they 're dealing with . then maybe they 'll let levi go . i 'm sure he 's cooling his heels in a jail cell right now . nathan : levi was arrested for trespassing . maxie : trespassing for justice . if you 'll excuse me ... nathan : and where do you think you 're going ? maxie : to get my phone . nathan : good luck with that . [ chuckles ] maxie : okay . fine . if that 's how you want to play it -- nathan : what are you doing ? what is this ? w - with your foot ? maxie : ugh ! ahh ! ha ha ! nathan : congratulations . maxie : okay . let 's see . nathan : nothing ? you got -- no ? i thought -- i thought you could n't wait to call the station and let everybody know what a lame cop i am . maxie : at this moment , i would love nothing more . nathan : so , what 's keeping you ? maxie : it seems i do n't have my phone . nathan : oh , you do n't ? maxie : all because of you . nathan : how is that my fault ? maxie : because i was upset when i left the house this morning . you were blaming levi for all that tension . nathan : yeah . poor levi . maxie : look , at least he was nice enough to take me to the park so that i could meditate and expel all your negativity from my aura and chakra and whatever that other word is that ends in a vowel . i left my phone at home 'cause i was on a quest for peace ! nathan : [ laughing ] oh , you did ? that 's just terrible . maxie : it is not funny ! nathan : okay . okay . okay . i know . it 's the worst . maxie : if i ca n't use my phone , i 'll just use yours . nathan : wait . what ? maxie : yeah . i know you have it on you , and i do n't think i 'll have a problem getting it . nathan : no , you can not have my -- you ca n't have my phone ! maxie : ohh ! emt : okay . what do we got ? michael : she 's not breathing . my brother 's been performing chess compressions . morgan : i 'm trying to get her pulse . she has n't got one . emt : okay . you 've done a great job , sir . we can take it from here . morgan : all right . emt : start at 150 . [ paddles charging ] emt : clear ! [ bang ] tracy : oh . emt : charge to 200 . [ paddles charging ] emt : clear . [ bang ] emt : all right . we got a pulse . let 's get her to the hospital . tj : i do n't think going to see rafe is such a good idea , molly . molly : if he 's doing drugs , something is seriously wrong . tj : which is exactly why you should stay away from him . molly : it 's rafe . you ca n't honestly think he 's dangerous ? tj : he had no problem socking me in the jaw . look , molly , i get that you have a soft spot for the guy . i even get why . but drugs change people , and not for the better . molly : i know , but what else can i do ? he 's my friend . in spite of everything , yes , rafe is my friend , and he needs help . tj : you 're right . someone should help him , but it does n't need to be you . what about sam ? molly : [ sighs ] i would , but sam 's got her hands full with patrick 's case . i know -- i need to talk to dr. clay . silas : keys are gone . dante : all right . i 'll put out an a.p.b . silas : an a.p.b . on a kid ? dante : yeah . patrick : it does n't change what happened to my son , does it ? dante : dr. clay , i 'm gon na need the make , model , and license plate of your vehicle . sam : i 've got all that information on my phone . here . dante : thanks , sam . i 'll call that in . patrick : so , where is he , hmm ? what kind of start did he have ? silas : 20 , 30 minutes . patrick : right . so , he could be halfway to canada by now . dante : okay . they 're putting it out there for everyone , and they 're setting up roadblocks . patrick : do you have patrols at the train stations and the bus depots ? silas : he 's not dillinger . sam : look , i know rafe is probably used to being on the run with his mother . he knows to ditch the car and probably find a new one . it 's not a bad idea for the police to be on this . dante : well , hang on a second . if this kid is on the run , he 's gon na want to pick up some belongings first . why do n't we start at your apartment ? silas : that 's a genius idea , all right ? maybe he 's not running after all . patrick : no . he knows what he did , and he knows we 're after him . he 's running . i 'm coming with you to clay 's apartment . dante : i understand why you 'd want to do that , but that 's not gon na happen , okay , patrick ? [ cell phone beeps ] patrick : it 's emma . i promised her i 'd take her to the fireworks . dante : then take her to the fireworks . patrick : no , because i 'm coming with you to his apartment . dante : no , listen . listen to me . you 're not coming with us to dr. clay 's apartment , okay ? so , spend the fourth of july with your daughter . sam : dante 's right . you should probably go be with your daughter . i 'll let you know if anything happened with rafe . i promise . patrick : you let me know as soon as you have any proof . sam : of course . nina : i 'm not trying to cause trouble for you , rafe . i 'm not trying to cause trouble for you . but who is the one -- who is the one who stayed silent ? i stayed silent when you had all that cocaine all over your face . rafe : you ? nina : yes , me . i did . okay ? i 'm gon na help you , and you 're gon na help me . rafe : how ? nina : how ? you 're not gon na tell anybody about what you just saw and heard . you 're not gon na tell anyone . you 're gon na keep it to yourself , and i 'm gon na let you go . rafe : i do n't even know where i 'm going . nina : you 're very resourceful and you 're very smart . you 'll think of something . rafe : the thing is uncle silas is supposed to give me $ 400 . nina : i 'll give you $ 500 . purse . rafe : i - i do n't know . uncle silas has been so good to me . what if i just turn myself in and tell him everything i know ? nina : you could definitely do that . you could turn yourself in and tell your uncle silas that you 're a cokehead and you 're a baby killer . thank you . what is your uncle silas gon na do for you then ? what will he do for you then ? what is he gon na do -- visit you in prison ? visit you when you 're 20 , 25 , 50 , 75 ? hmm ? that 's what 's gon na happen when the law gets through with you . you 're gon na be in prison . or -- or ... there 's a simple solution . i know you 're confused . i understand , rafe . i really understand . but all you have to do is take my money . that 's all . hey ... do we have a deal ? maxie : well [ sighs ] if you 're not gon na let me use your phone , can we please just find that stupid key ? nathan : it 's gone . it 's under a floorboard or lost in the space - time continuum . maxie : well , then , how are we gon na get away from each other ? nathan : look , i have a key . it 's back at our apartment . maxie : first of all , it 's not our apartment . you sublet from me . and , second , you could n't have mentioned that , like , a half an hour ago ? nathan : i tried to say something ! maxie : you should have tried harder . look at all the time we wasted . nathan : i know ! if only we could have done something like ... cooperate ! maxie : are you implying i 'm uncooperative ? nathan : no . i am saying i have a key in my room and we can leave anytime . maxie : right , 'cause we 're just gon na walk out of here handcuffed together . nathan : well , the sooner we do , the sooner we 're free . maxie : fine . nathan : fine . maxie : no . nathan : come on . maxie : you fir -- please . nathan : no , please -- allow me . maxie : thank you . nathan : all ri -- hey . morgan : hey , you 're gon na be all right , okay ? you 're gon na be fine . michael : tracy , before the phone went dead , alice was talking about you . tracy : well , i hope it was good things . michael : she said there was something she had to tell me about you . morgan : mikey , come on . tracy : [ sighs ] ned : if luke and my mother were plotting together , would they go so far as to annul their marriage ? i mean , it seems to me that that would weaken their position . alexis : well , that 's assuming that this annulment is all valid and legal . ned : and you ca n't tell if it is n't ? alexis : well , i can tell you that the paper is real , but i ca n't tell you if it was filed or not . ned : i get it . alexis : all right . so , i 'll check in to it , and i 'll get back to you . molly : [ sighs ] dr. clay 's office said he just left , but he 's not answering his cell . tj : look , molly , do n't worry , all right ? it 's the fourth of july . you can talk to dr. clay tomorrow . molly : no . i wo n't be able to enjoy the fireworks if i do n't settle this now . tj : so , you want to leave our prime spot for an intervention for rafe ? molly : no . you 'll save our spot , and i 'll head over to dr. clay 's and tell him what 's going on . tj : wait , wait , wait . molly , are you sure ? molly : i promise i 'll be right back . tj : i 'll be counting on it . kiki : dr. drake , did you find rafe ? patrick : no . sam and silas are looking for him now . i would be with them , but i promised my daughter i was going to the park to watch the fireworks with her . kiki : i 'm sure sam and silas have it covered . patrick : well , they have help now . detective falconeri is with them . kiki : you called the police ? patrick : dante happened to be there when we were talking about it , but now that the cops are involved , hopefully , they 'll find rafe as soon as possible . dante : the car is still in the parking garage , which means rafe could potentially still be on the premises . i do n't want to spook him , send him down the fire escape . we do n't have a key . i have to bust down the door . silas : wait , wait , wait . is that really necessary ? dante : the city will reimburse you . silas : look , i do n't give a damn about the door . i 'm concerned about rafe . sam : yeah . rafe must be scared out of his mind . if you break down the door with your weapon drawn , who knows what he 's gon na do ? dante : look , i promise you , my priority is to keep everyone safe , but i ca n't guarantee that until we find rafe . [ next_on ] maxie ( to nathan ) : you think that my eyes are beautiful ? nikolas ( to britt ) : we 're here to pick up elizabeth for the fireworks . emma ( to patrick ) : are you and mommy getting a divorce ? alexis ( to tj ) : tell me what rafe did . rafe ( to molly ) : what are you doing ? get out ! sam : rafe !

nikolas : rosalie , gather up a list of every elq contract . i want to make sure they do n't jump ship in case michael decided -- rosalie ? rosalie ? spencer : sorry , father , but rosalie is not in right now , so you 're gon na have to deal with me . [ scene_break ] sam : i just had a run - in with nikolas . mm - hmm . and i told him how disgusted i am with what he 's doing to michael and the quartermaines . i just ... i really wish there was something i could do about it . jake : maybe there is . sam : patrick , can i call you back ? okay . bye . [ scene_break ] kiki : i 'm heading straight to the park . franco : all by yourself ? kiki : no , i 'm meeting morgan there . franco : kiki , i 'm not so sure that 's a good idea . kiki : why not ? look , i understand morgan 's not exactly your favorite person , but let 's face it , how many people do you actually like ? franco : this has nothing to do with morgan and me . it has everything to do with morgan and denise . [ scene_break ] [ pounding on door ] morgan : denise ? what are you doing here ? ava : i 'm looking for you . [ scene_break ] [ dante returns home and slams the door ] [ scene_break ] cole : come with me . got a car just over there . i 'll take you to the hospital . lulu : um , honey ? aah ... dillon : um , sir , i am -- i 'm so , so sorry . uh , your gun is making my wife very nervous . would it be possible for you to leave it with your partner ? i 'm sure he can watch after it for you . lulu : [ groans ] dillon : shh . lulu : [ breathing heavily ] luke : sir , have you seen -- blake : stop right there , or i 'll shoot ! oh , you 're making a big mistake . luke : we 'll take that chance . hand over the hardware . man : what are you gon na do now ? [ grunts ] holly : and that takes care of that . luke : i 'm not so sure . this was too easy . holly : heh , easy for you . luke : why 2 guards and not 10 ? laura : you think it 's a trap ? luke : it could be . all right , let 's avoid it . let 's split up . i 'll get into the warehouse . you circle around the compound and see if there 's another way in . holly : and if we find any more men with guns ? luke : just lay low . do n't let them see you . do n't shoot unless you have to . remember , we 're gon na get the boys out with no injuries . laura : okay , we better move , then , 'cause lulu 's not gon na be able to decoy them forever . luke : i 'll be damned . ethan : of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world . luke : i had to walk into yours . hey , dodge ! ethan : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . do n't come any closer . i would n't want to kill you . [ scene_break ] jake : when you said that you wanted to undo what nikolas did to michael , were you serious , or were you just venting ? sam : well , [ sighs ] nikolas is family . but -- but so is michael . it 's not like michael stopped being family just because jason has died . he was special to jason . he 's special to me . yeah , yeah , actually , i mea -- i meant what i said . why ? jake : good . because i think there might be a way that we can get michael 's company back from nikolas . [ scene_break ] nikolas : spencer , we talked about that tone of yours . spencer : desperate times call for desperate measures . nikolas : desperate measures , huh ? dare i ask what happened to my assistant ? spencer : i righted a horrible wrong . nikolas : which means ? spencer : consider me shocked that you had rosalie working today . it 's a national holiday . i sent bob cratchit home , mr. scrooge . nikolas : that was actually christmas . spencer : and this is america 's birthday . nikolas : and that story was british . spencer : you do n't have to school me on dickens . every cassadine knows the classics . nikolas : what is it you want from me , exactly ? spencer : i want you to tell me why you stole this company from the quartermaines . [ scene_break ] kiki : aunt denise and morgan ? what about them ? franco : they 're , uh ... they 're , uh ... mm . kiki : thanks . [ scoffs ] i 'm sorry , but ... you -- you ca n't be serious . franco : have you not seen the way they look at each other ? am i the only one who sees that ? kiki : [ sighs ] look , franco , no offense , but you tend to get a little ... eh ... jealous when it comes to the people that you 're dating . franco : oh , you mean the way i behaved when i thought that sonny might be with carly . yeah , i was way off base on -- oh , no , no , wait . hold on a second . not off base . actually on base . they were indeed schtupping . kiki : oh , you 've got to stop hanging out with dr. obrecht . franco : i would prefer that morgan and denise not put you through that . would n't you rather stop them before they cross that line ? [ scene_break ] morgan : why are you looking for me ? ava : oh , uh ... i got to talk to you . i - it could n't wait . morgan : yeah . well , there 's probably a lot we need to discuss about what , uh , almost happened in michael 's office . ava : no , no . you said it yourself . nothing happened . morgan : well , let 's not kid ourselves . but , you know what , we ca n't be alone with each other , so if you need to pour your heart out , maybe do that with a friend or delia . maybe your new boyfriend , franco , would like to hear . ava : no , i ca n't talk to franco about this . morgan : why not ? ava : because he ca n't give me what you can . [ scene_break ] valerie : so , you are alive . i 've been calling you all day . dante : i have n't been checking my cell phone . [ sniffles ] you want to come in and have a beer ? valerie : sure . i guess . you look like hell . dante : thanks a lot . [ refrigerator slams , bottles clatter ] dante : have n't slept . just , uh ... just got back from canada . valerie : wait , what ? dante : well , i did like you said , you know ? i waited for the cold light of day to go -- to go look for lulu and dillon . so , i dropped rocco off at sonny 's , and i hopped on a plane to british columbia . valerie : and ? dante : and i was right . lulu and dillon are having an affair . [ scene_break ] dillon : do n't worry , honey . i 'm right here . lulu : i could n't do this without you . cole : i got to disable the alarm . lulu : okay , we can not get into this van . we 'll be sitting ducks . dillon : we ca n't let him get back to the warehouse . what are we supposed to do ? lulu : [ sighs ] cole : all right . let 's get you to the hospital . lulu : [ moans and drops to the ground ] cole : whoa , what 's going on ? lulu : ohh ... dillon : honey , are you okay ? lulu : we 're not gon na make it to the hospital . this baby is coming right now . [ moans ] [ scene_break ] luke : not exactly the greeting i was hoping for . what is the problem ? ethan : [ shakily ] uh , well , i 'm standing on a pressure bomb . a land mine . so if i move , boom . luke : how did this happen ? ethan : a very unfriendly gentleman pointed a gun in my face and said , `` stand here . `` said if i refused , then they 'd shoot me and lay my body on the bomb so that whoever came to rescue me would roll me over and ... well , you get the picture . luke : vividly . ethan : figured holly would be looking for me . luke : she is . ethan : so , uh , she would n't suspect i was booby trapped . so , in a roundabout way , i 'm trying to save my mother 's life . luke : very gallant . ethan : problem is , i 'm getting woozy . so i 'm just gon na say what i have to say , and you need to get the hell out of here . luke : okay . okay . first things first . tell me what you need to tell me . [ scene_break ] kiki : look , i think that maybe you 're a little nervous about opening yourself up to someone new after getting hurt . maybe that 's why you 're a little insecure in your new relationship with my aunt denise . franco : [ stammers ] your aunt and i are not even in a real relationship . [ scene_break ] morgan : denise , i know that there 's an attraction here , but we agreed that this was wrong and that we do n't want to hurt kiki . right ? so please go , because i need to get dressed and i need to meet kiki at the park for fireworks . ava : look . it 's not that you do n't look great in that towel , 'cause you do , but this is not about sex . it 's not about kiki . it 's about how i can not see my niece avery anymore , and it 's all your fault . [ scene_break ] dante : yeah , i tracked lulu and dillon to their hotel . i got there . i , uh , got a maid to let me in , and ... well , it looked like they were having a really , really nice time . they had breakfast laid out , and coffee , and clothes thrown all over the very unmade bed . valerie : unbelievable . what 'd lulu and dillon have to say for themselves ? dante : you know what , i did n't -- i do n't know . i did n't stick around to ask . [ scene_break ] dillon : she has to make it to the hospital . what are we supposed to do ? lulu : there 's no time . he 's coming . [ breathing heavily ] dillon : she 's gon na deliver the baby right here . cole : no way . she ca n't deliver here . it 's not safe . lulu : [ moans loudly ] dillon : so , what , you want to move her right now ? cole : we have no choice . i 'm not delivering a baby in the woods . help me get her up . dillon : okay , okay ! not too fast . be careful . cole : all right . lulu : no ! no , no , no ! dillon : stop . just take it easy , okay ? lulu : [ moans ] blake : we got a situation at the warehouse , man . this is a setup . [ scene_break ] ethan : first things first . lucky 's alive , and i think he 's free . luke : but you 're not sure . ethan : we were tied up together . he -- lucky managed to get loose , but the guards came before he could untie me , so he took off . i do n't know if they caught him . luke : how long ago ? ethan : before they stood me on this thing . i do n't know . time 's getting funny . it was dark , and then it was light , and now it 's dark again . so i do n't know . maybe 12 , 16 hours ? also , i -- i heard shooting , so lucky could be wounded . you should start searching for him . luke : what , and leave you ? ethan : look , do n't worry about me , mate . i wo n't be here much longer . luke : yeah , well , we 'll get to that part . do you know who 's behind this ? ethan : the guards are reporting to someone . i have n't heard a name . [ chuckles ] given their choice of hostages , i could say you managed to royally piss someone off . luke : watch ! ethan : [ breathing shakily ] okay . i 'm gon na pass out soon , so you need to go . luke : do you really think that 's gon na happen ? do you think i 'm just gon na walk away and let my kid die ? ethan : you have other kids , luke . worry about them . [ scene_break ] dillon : okay . everybody just calm down . i can explain this . cole : [ grunts ] lulu : aah ! blake : stop right there . dillon : all right . take it easy . blake : one more move , and i snap her neck . [ scene_break ] sam : yeah , i - i would love for michael to be reinstated at elq . that place means everything to him , and he was doing a really good job as ceo . i just do n't think that nikolas is gon na give up his majority stake willingly . jake : who said anything about willingly ? sam : what do you mean ? jake : well , [ clears throat ] we know that nikolas blackmailed tracy 's granddaughter into giving him her shares . sam : right . but we ca n't blackmail nikolas if brook lynn is n't gon na make a statement to the police . jake : she does not have to be involved . sam : okay . well , what are you suggesting ? jake : we do to nikolas what he did to brook . we blackmail him . and that 's where you come in . [ scene_break ] nikolas : it 's not stealing . i got a significant stake of the company and got the votes necessary for the board to back me as ceo . it 's perfectly legal . happens in the business world quite often . spencer : that 's not what everybody else is saying . nikolas : who 's `` everybody else `` ? spencer : i read the news . they 're calling you a corporal raider . nikolas : corporate raider ? spencer : ohh , that makes more sense . 'cause why would the head of a company be only a corporal ? nikolas : [ sighs ] spencer : maybe what you did was legal , father , but all the stories are saying that you lied to do it , and how is that any better ? you 're the one who always tells me that lying 's wrong . nikolas : you 're right , i did . it is wrong . spencer : so why 'd you do this ? nikolas : for you . [ scene_break ] lulu : so , let me get this straight . that whole time that morgan and i were on that double date with you and aunt denise , that was , what ? that was a con ? franco : nina did n't believe that i actually had a date at the metro court , and i saw you talking -- you and carly -- to some woman , and , well , i just thought nina would take my word for it . kiki : oh , i ca n't believe she would n't believe you . franco : yeah , well , the world is a suspicious place . nina insisted on meeting the woman . i did n't even know who denise was . i mean , i just chose her because you were talking to her . kiki : okay , but how does you lying translate into morgan and denise ... fooling around ? franco : well , i put your aunt denise on the spot , you know ? i mean , here i am , some guy she 's never even seen before , and i 'm pretending to be her boyfriend . and i thought i was dead in the water . kiki : but she backed you up . franco : well , at first , i did n't think she would . but then morgan walked in , and that 's when she decided to plant a great , big kiss on me . it could be that she was trying to get under someone else 's skin , as well . [ scene_break ] ava : i went over to the quartermaines to see my niece for my scheduled visit , and she was n't there . that brother of yours gave her back to your father . morgan : no , there must be a mistake . ava : nope . no mistake . sonny confirmed it . morgan : [ scoffs ] wow . he did it . michael came through like always . took him a while . damn , my brother is good . ava : [ scoffs ] oh , i beg to differ . he gave my niece back to sonny , and sonny wo n't let me see her . morgan : well , i 'm sorry . i am . but my dad 's had it in for you since the day you showed up in this town , so ... ava : and the fact that you told him what almost happened between us , that certainly did n't help matters any . morgan : oh -- ava : yeah , `` oh . `` you told sonny about our kiss . you told him what happened between us in michael 's office ? he thinks your head 's all mixed up and that your susceptible to me because i look like ava , and he wo n't let me see avery . and you 're gon na get your butt over there , and you 're gon na fix that ! [ scene_break ] valerie : you did n't talk to lulu or dillon ? [ bottles clatter ] dante : stick around there ? i wanted to get the hell out of there . valerie : then you do n't know what really happened . dante : the hell i do n't . [ scoffs ] valerie : okay , you need to speak to lulu . you could 've gotten the wrong idea . dante : how would i get the wrong idea , valerie ? how would i get the wrong idea ? why do n't we talk about what we know ? okay , you said you heard them saying they had something they did n't want to tell me , this secret , this lie . okay ? then -- then i follow lulu to the quartermaines , where she meets up with dillon . he 's waiting for her . then she calls me and tells me she 's going to italy to -- to take care of her sick grandmother . then i find out they 're actually in canada ? in a hotel together ? sharing a room together , sharing a bed together ? like i need to see them doing the act for me to know what 's going on ? no , if i stayed there , i would 've broken that son of a bitch 's neck . [ scene_break ] lulu : [ groans ] dillon : easy , man , okay ? just take it easy . cole : shut up ! blake : these two are part of some lame rescue attempt , cole . cole : oh , this pretty , little thing ? she 's part of the cavalry ? lulu : i do n't know where you get your information , but i assure you that i am not some pretty , little thing . blake : [ grunts ] lulu : aah ! blake : come here ! [ scene_break ] ethan : no , wrong way . you 're supposed to be leaving . luke : not without you . ethan : i was dead the minute i stepped up on this thing . i 'm glad i got to see you . luke : okay , well , here 's a thought . how about we get you out of here , and then we can see a lot more of each other ? ethan : i told you , worry about your other kids . lucky is in trouble . luke : oh , not as much as you seem to be at the moment . ethan : look , he called me , said he was on to something big and needed backup . i was on my way to meet him when the lights went out . luke : okay , pressure detonates the bomb . i have to disarm this without blowing us both to kingdom come . ethan : damn it , luke ! listen to me ! lucky could n't give me details . he thought his phone was tapped . but i could hear it in his voice . whatever he is into has him on a ragged edge . just go help him while you still can . luke : are you finished ? ethan : no . no . i have loved every day of my life . and i have made it this far without any regrets . and i will not let my last thought be that i was too selfish and stupid to step off of this thing before you walked through that door . luke : okay , i listened to you . now you listen to me . you are my son . i will save you or die trying . that 's my right as a father . [ scene_break ] kiki : did you at least ask denise why she decided to go along with your little scheme ? franco : well , of course , i did . and she said that she was trying to get you to back off from playing matchmaker with her and silas , which , if you ask me , was really hard to believe . kiki : sure . [ sighs ] except that 's the truth . [ scene_break ] morgan : denise , i would help you if i could , but i ca n't make my dad suddenly like you . ava : no . but you can tell him he 's completely mistaken about you and me . tell him . tell sonny there is nothing going on between us . morgan : i could tell him that . but that would be a lie . [ scene_break ] jake : i was supposed to help michael stop whoever was gunning for elq . we know how that turned out . sam : well , no one was suspecting nikolas . jake : point is , i owe michael , and i would like to help him get his company back . but the only way to do that is to coerce nikolas into stepping down . sam : okay , so , basically you want me to dig up dirt on my cousin . [ scene_break ] spencer : you stole this company for me ? nikolas : i did n't steal it . spencer : obtained by covert methods . i know i ask for a lot of things , but i did not ask for you to do that . nikolas : no . you did not ask for me to do that . but part of parenting means that , uh ... it means giving your children what they need instead of only what they want . spencer : i need this company ? nikolas : no . we do . our family needs the money . spencer : are n't we rich ? nikolas : [ laughs ] spencer : nobody else i know has a house on an island here , one in greece , and remember the house in italy , and the apartment in paris , and the flat in london ? nikolas : yes . we are what they call `` cash poor . `` spencer : and what does that mean ? nikolas : it means that our family can afford our estate and a few islands and a large staff because we had a savings . spencer : and money makes money . nikolas : exactly . but your great - grandmother and uncle victor , they , uh ... let 's just say they made some questionable investments on some personal projects of theirs . now we 're spending more than we 're making . spencer : we 're going to go broke . nikolas : no , i did n't say that . but if i had n't done anything , we definitely would 've had to downsize . look , elq is a very profitable company , but it will be even more successful under my control . i want you to be able to live the live that you 're accustomed to , okay ? to put it into terms that you understand , i would n't want anyone to think you were a [ laughing ] townie . spencer : and what would be so wrong with that ? [ scene_break ] dante : i am done . i am so -- i 'm so ... [ kicks table ] ... done with this . valerie : god , why would lulu do this to you and rocco ? dante : [ sighs ] valerie : she -- she made such a big deal about her marriage and her son . she got right in my face when she thought i was overstepping with your family . dante : of course , she did ! she 's overprotective . she 's , like , possessive of rocco . she was like that with me , too . but there 's this side of her , this side of lulu you do n't know about , and i have n't seen it in years . but it 's like she 's got this -- this part of her -- this part of her that lives for this shot of adrenaline . [ kicks table ] [ scene_break ] blake : [ grunts ] lulu : you okay ? dillon : yeah . thanks . i see you still know how to handle yourself . lulu : you held your own . what do you say ? shall we join my parents and save the day ? dillon : after you . [ scene_break ] luke : so far , so good . ethan : define `` far . `` luke : i can see the interior wiring . now i just have to disarm it . ethan : oh , i ca n't believe this . the only noble thing i do in my life , and you have to muck it up . luke : well , if you 're complaining about my parenting style , get in the long bloody line . ethan : honestly , i think this is the first time i 've ever had reason to complain . luke : well , then , you , my son , are not just woozy . you 're delusional . ethan : [ sighs ] you know , i wanted you to be my father before i knew you were . you remember the first time i showed up at the haunted star ? luke : [ sighs ] like it was yesterday . ethan : i knew right then we were two of a kind . luke : no , you 're wrong there . you ... are what i wish i was . what i wish i could be . you have all my grace and none of my flaws . ethan : i cheat at cards . luke : i consider that grace . no , i like the way you live life , dodge . you live for the game . you play hard , and you laugh whether you win or lose . you know , when you came to the haunted star , you came to learn from me , but i learned from you . ethan : [ gasps ] luke : hey , hey ! ethan : luke -- luke ... dad . almost lost my balance there . i do n't think i can stand up much longer . luke : i do n't think you 're gon na have to . i think i disarmed it . ethan : you think ? luke : well , i cut a wire and it did n't blow up . ethan : [ laughs ] luke : [ laughs ] i think the odds are in our favor . ethan : so what are the odds now ? over or under , what , 20 to 1 ? luke : yeah , give or take . ethan : we 've gone all - in on worse . luke : we have . ethan : [ sighs ] all right . okay . you get out of this warehouse , and i will step off . luke : no . no way . you give me your hand . ethan : you 've done more than enough . luke : we are in this together , live or die . give me your damn hand , jackass . [ scene_break ] ava : i feel it , too . but are you telling me you wo n't go to bat for me about avery because we 're attracted to each other ? morgan : of course not . i 'll talk to my dad . i just do n't -- i do n't think it 's gon na do much good . hell , i think a part of him thinks that you are ava . that you 're just scamming all of us . ava : that old line again , huh ? morgan : i told my dad that ava would never do that to kiki or me , make us think that she 's dead . she would n't be that cruel . ava : i just wish you had n't told sonny about our kiss . kisses . why did you do that ? morgan : because i am attracted to you , denise . i like you . too much . and -- a - a - and i needed to talk to someone , anyone , because you 're on my mind all the time . i ca n't stop thinking about you . [ scene_break ] franco : now , who said what now ? kiki : oh , it 's called the truth . i know it 's kind of a novel concept for you , but it 's true . i really did . i thought that my dad and denise would hit it off . franco : huh . she 's telling the truth . yeah . wow . kiki : obviously , nina and i -- we have our issues . i do n't think i will ever forgive her for what she did to my mom and avery . but i keep reminding myself over and over that she was sick then and she 's better now . she makes you happy . or at least she did when you two were together . now , i -- i just genuinely want what 's best for you , so ... do whatever you have to do . but if your plan does fall apart , it 's not gon na be because of morgan and denise . [ scene_break ] morgan : i look at you and i see the first woman that i was ever truly in love with . except everything that ruined us is wiped away . it 's a clean slate . i look at you and i -- and i -- and i see what could 've been , which makes it really , really hard to stay away from you . i see ava 's fire in you . i see her passion . and that 's why i ca n't risk getting too close to whatever this is and ruining everything good i have in my life . ava : like kiki . morgan : yeah . like kiki . she does n't deserve this . i do n't want to hurt her . ava : okay . yet here we are . morgan : but what i ca n't figure out is why you have n't been able to shake me . [ scene_break ] ethan : luke , you have people that love you , all right ? it 's not fair to throw your life away on me . luke : look , i am your father , and i not leaving -- ethan : then be a father ! live for the ones that you 've got left . luke : you listen to me . my old man was a poisonous son of a bitch who failed me every day of his life . i will not follow in his footsteps . now you take my hand , and we do this together . ethan : [ inhales deeply ] fine . be that way . luke : all right . on -- on three , okay ? one , two -- ethan : no , wait ! wait , wait , wait . luke : what ? what ? what ? ethan : [ breathing heavily ] love you . luke : i love you , too . one , two ! [ both grunt ] luke : [ breathing heavily ] ethan : what the hell was that ? luke : what was that ? we 're alive . i saved your life . ethan : yeah , but you -- you said count to three . you did n't count to three . luke : well , of course i did n't , because you were gon na let me go and fall backwards . ethan : of course , i was gon na let you go . luke : because you 're a cheat . ethan : yes , i was gon na cheat . i 'm trying to save your life . luke : well , i was trying to save your life , so i cheated first . deal with it . we 're alive . ethan : [ laughs ] you saved my life . luke : i know . [ footsteps approach ] cole : well , is n't this heartwarming ?

[ scene_break ] robert : curious practice for a doctor , no ? i mean , ignoring a page . patrick : well , i figured it could wait until after i saved a patient in the e.r . so what 's the emergency ? you look healthy enough . robert : well , i find myself troubled by recent events concerning my daughter . patrick : if this is about our decision to end our relationship , i was n't aware we needed to clear it through you . robert : look , relationships come and go . you know , both parts of the relationship sometimes do n't measure up -- lack of expectation , people go their own way . i can get that . now , what i do n't get is the way that you 've handled yourself here . you dropped my daughter like she was a hot brick . you showed her no respect . patrick : mr. scorpio , i have nothing but respect for your daughter , which is why our relationship had to end . i did n't want to mislead her about a future that did n't exist for us . robert : because of her medical condition ? patrick : if robin and i were to ever have a future , her medical condition would n't even be an issue . i admire the way robin lives her life , the way she deals with her condition . she 's a brave girl . but the bottom line is i 'm not looking for a relationship , and i 'm sure if you were to ask her , she 'd say the same thing . robert : oh , wait , wait , wait . were these her words , or were these your assumptions to patch your ego ? patrick : it was our understanding from day one . look , i 'm an inherently self- involved man . my career and my reputation are what is important to me . i do n't have enough left to give to someone who deserves more , and i 'm sure you can relate to that . robert : well , this is your lucky day because i 'm going to give you the benefit of my considerable experience with robin 's mother . strong , independent women -- well , they come along rarely in your life . the man who lets that slip through his fingers is a perfect idiot . [ scene_break ] robin : so it all started out because patrick is really fun to flirt with -- anna : mm - hmm . robin : you know , and he 's really good - looking . but unfortunately he knows it , and so does everybody else . i mean , every woman he comes in contact with wants him . anna : oh . i 'll reserve judgment on that . robin : so i figured , why not ? i had n't let myself have a purely physical relationship and -- all right , well , let 's be honest , i never have . are you sure you want to hear this ? anna : oh , my god , are you kidding ? i mean , we have french fries and we 're talking about sex . robin : okay . anna : this is hormonally very satisfying . [ robin laughs ] robin : great . first of all , he 's an amazing kisser . and everything else is pretty perfect , as well . i mean , it was the perfect situation -- hot guy , commitment - phobic , and he 's a doctor , so my h.i.v . status is n't a problem . he knows all the risks and precautions . and on the flip side of it , he 's so insufferable on every level that i knew i could never see myself really being with him . anna : it sounds perfect . what went wrong ? robin : things got complicated . i think he got scared , which is silly because we both agreed that we were just in it for the sex . anna : oh , robin . i love you , but that 's a lie . robin : excuse me ? anna : yeah . i mean , i do n't know this guy , but i do know you . and , you know , you 've been shut down for years because your heart was broken , right ? more than once . so you were done with it . i mean , closed for business . and then you let this guy kiss you , and suddenly things were possible . [ robin sighs ] anna : there 's no such thing as `` purely physical `` for a woman like you . you put a great deal of value in intimacy and trust , and -- you should . you know ? and this whole fantasy of yours about -- about the perfect man -- someone who 's fabulous in bed , with no strings attached -- he turned into flesh - and - blood . and he started to crack that shell that you 'd put around your heart . robin , your eyes are warmer , you smile more easily . [ robin laughs ] anna : no , i mean , this -- this insufferable , arrogant m -- he got to you , did n't he ? robin : well , it does n't matter now because he broke it off , and i 'm better off without him . anna : no , honey , i doubt that . robin : mom , i ca n't be with someone who does n't want me back . i mean , that 's not my pride talking , that 's just basic survival . anna : i 'm proud of you , anyway , for being willing to take the chance . robin : well , now look what 's happened . i did the one thing i promised myself i would n't do .

[ scene_break ] sam : now , you are just full of surprises , which is exactly why i ca n't take anything you say at face value . do you -- do you want to know what i think of your little story ? i think you knew maureen had jake all along . that would explain why you were so eager to have elizabeth make her appeal on the show for jake 's return . now , there 's a ratings grabber . `` kidnapped boy found courtesy of -- `` hmm -- `` ' everyday heroes .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : all right , we better get going . the park fills up fast and i want to get a spot . ric : yeah -- uh -- you know , why do n't you go ahead and i 'll meet you there later . i just have some last - minute work to do for alcazar . elizabeth : who does business on the fourth of july ? ric : south americans . it 's just another friday to them . elizabeth : do you promise me alcazar 's not getting you involved in something illegal ? ric : no , no , i swear it 's just some simple legal work , that 's all . i swear , okay ? and as long as that 's all it is , i think it 's best if i keep him happy . i will be there before the fireworks start , okay ? elizabeth : you better . ric : i will . elizabeth : all right . hurry up . ric : you watch it with that thing , okay ? elizabeth : okay . [ scene_break ] carly : elizabeth did n't look too happy when she left just now . hmm . she 's starting to doubt you just a little more each day . and you know what ? at this rate , she will have left you long before my baby 's ever born . ric : no , you 're the only one who 's been left already , carly . sonny mourned you all of five minutes before he jumped right into bed with faith . [ scene_break ] sonny : this is n't a good time right now . i got a lot faith : we 're supposed to be lovers . you know , that 's really difficult to do when you 're avoiding me like the plague . sonny : i do n't want you here . faith : that attitude is exactly why no matter how much you hate the idea , i 'm moving in with you . sonny : we already discussed this . it 's not going to happen . faith : i met alcazar in the park yesterday , and i led him to believe that i am working you . he has no idea that he is my real target . now , see , i have to move in here to convince him that i 'm your mistress , that i have some influence with you . sonny : i will not have you living in my wife 's home , and do n't you ever touch that picture again . [ faith sighs ] faith : you wo n't have a wife if you do n't cooperate -- not that carly is any great loss . i mean , what has she ever caused you but trouble ? she is too trashy to be a trophy wife and she 's not smart enough to be anything else , like a real partner . like i could be , if you just give me the chance . you know , really , just think of it as the first step in moving up to the real deal , because i guarantee you in bed and everywhere else , i can provide more than carly ever did . sonny : if i want a whore in my bed , i will pay for one i can stand to touch . leave . [ faith sighs ] faith : you know what ? i will be at the fireworks tonight . find me there . it 's the perfect opportunity for a public display of affection . and , after all , that 's what the feds let us out of jail for . oh , and if agent brown and company lose any more patience with you , you will lose any hope of finding your precious carly alive . sonny : bitch . [ scene_break ] dillon : since when did you start working at kelly 's ? georgie : mac flipped after maxie went to that party , so no fourth of july at the park for us . we work here tonight . maxie 's in back washing dishes . dillon : well -- okay . so why do n't you ditch the bogus punishment and save my life . look , i 'm supposed to be at some boring family fourth of july picnic , and , you know , it 's not going to be half as bad if you 're there to talk to . georgie : i would love to , you know that , but i just -- i ca n't take the risk . dillon : okay . well , that 's too bad . life 's a lot more fun when you break the rules just a little bit .

[ scene_break ] stefan : without lydia 's inheritance , the cassadine finances will collapse . your first duty is to your heritage , to your family . nikolas : my first duty is to emily . if the cassadine fortune is lost because i keep my promise to her , then so be it . if i have to actually go out and find a job and earn a living , i 'll survive . maybe it 's a good thing . maybe the cassadine legacy of pain and tragedy will finally collapse without the money to hold it up . stefan : uh - huh . how do you think you will feel living off emily 's trust fund ? nikolas : i wo n't -- stefan : thanking the quartermaines for any crumbs tossed your way . nikolas : i wo n't take charity . you know that . stefan : pride is expensive , nikolas , and the only way you can afford yours is by marrying lydia . nikolas : i 've made my choice . the subject is closed . [ scene_break ] emily : nikolas -- he forced me to go to a support group and listen , you know , jase , like really just listen to other women who are fighting cancer and who are beating it . and slowly i just -- i started to realize , you know , that i could be one of them , that i could live . jason : then i owe a lot to nikolas for helping you when you could n't come to me . emily : i could n't exactly push zander away by claiming to fall in love with my brother . [ emily chuckles ] emily : nikolas was really the only one who could do what i needed . jason : i 'm just glad you were n't alone . emily : yeah . oh , you know , i thought -- i thought i was protecting zander , but mostly i was hiding , you know ? i still want to . i know , it 's not fair to keep the secret any longer . it 's not only hurting zander and me . it 's wrecking something really important for nikolas . i have to tell zander the truth . do n't i ? jason : sounds like you made up your mind . emily : i still want to hear what you think . jason : just do what feels right . whatever is going to get you through this . emily : okay . [ scene_break ] lucky : what do you want , lydia ? lydia : you owe me , and i 'm here to collect . [ scene_break ] faith : hey ! in case you do n't have your own , they 're selling delicious lemonade for 50 cents a glass over by the gate . elizabeth : if you try anything , i 'll scream my head off , and every cop in the park will be here in 30 seconds . faith : that wo n't be necessary . i 'm no threat to you -- anymore . elizabeth : yeah . okay , i 'll believe that when you 're behind bars . faith : no , really , relax . i realize that ric is n't worth it . see , he 's weak and envious , and he knows that he 'll never be half the man that sonny is and so now i finally know that , too . yeah -- why settle for a wannabe when you can have the real thing ? yeah , he 's all yours . i 'm done with him . elizabeth : ric has been all mine for months . you 're the only one who could n't see it because you 're so demented . faith : oh . elizabeth : and i do n't buy the sudden change - of - heart act , so pay attention . i 'll do whatever i have to do to protect myself . faith : oh . you 're a feisty little waitress , are n't you ? have a nice life . [ scene_break ] lucky : i am on a picnic with my sister and grandma who are at the pony rides . they 're due back any minute , so if you could make this fast -- lydia : okay , look , i will be more than happy to buy your sister a pony as soon as i get my inheritance . but that is not going to happen unless you can convince nikolas to marry me . lucky : i do n't know what you 're talking about and i do n't care . lydia : well , you better care , unless you want nikolas standing next to you on the unemployment line . i mean , if we get married , we are going to get a multibillion - dollar inheritance . if not , nothing , zero . it all goes to charity . lucky : well , i guess it 's going to charity . nikolas and emily are engaged , or you do n't remember ? lydia : look , he does n't love her , you know ? and even if he did , that 's no reason to marry . money is . so would you please just talk to nikolas for me ? make him understand . lucky : now , why would i do that ? lydia : because i helped you . yeah , i covered with stefan when you were snooping around spoon island . lucky : i had nikolas ' permission to be on that island . lydia : i saved you a beating and possibly your life . i always did have a soft spot for courageous men without an ounce of sense . i just -- i did n't want to see you pulverized and thrown over a cliff by one of stefan 's guards . seemed like a tragic waste to such a beautiful body . of course , that was before i knew how bad your attitude was . lucky : hmm , i think you like my attitude . lydia : ha . you 're dreaming . lucky : hmm . i do n't think so . [ scene_break ] emily : hi . nikolas : hi . i have something for you . it 's a strange day for it , but nothing in our engagement has been that routine , so -- emily : nikolas , i need to say something . nikolas : it 's been in a vault for decades , and i give you my word helena never touched it , okay ? it belonged to my great - great - grandmother katya , and she was supposed to be somewhat normal , so -- emily : oh , my -- emily : i -- i think i would 've liked wearing it . but you need to give that to lydia . and i need to tell zander the truth . so that 's what we 're going to do . i 'm officially setting you free .

[ scene_break ] tracy : why do n't you use your money and your threats to buy your wife another job ? my mother was director of the hospital charity endowment from the moment she arrived in port charles till the day she died , and it was passed down to me . i 'm not about to give it up , least of all to carly corinthos alcazar or whatever it is she 's calling herself these days . monica : i agree with tracy . carly is completely inappropriate . lorenzo : no , she 's inexperienced , and she 'll learn what she needs to know to be effective . tracy : you ca n't learn the requirements for my job . you either have them or you do n't -- breeding , social standing , business acumen . carly comes up zero on all counts . alan : where she shines , however , is lying , scheming , blackmailing , and stealing other people 's children . maybe you can get her a job as an enforcer , and jason could give her tips . luke : look , lorenzo , i totally understand your need to get something for carly to do to keep her busy , but maybe being the head of a large charitable endowment is n't a good choice . lorenzo : well , your opinions are duly noted . please refrain from expressing them to carly or the deal will be off . tracy : have you not been listening ? there is no deal . lorenzo : so be it . skye : well , let 's not be so hasty , shall we ? of course we accept your generous offer . tracy will step down as director of the endowment , effective immediately . i 'm sure carly will make an excellent replacement .

[ scene_break ] carly : yeah , i need the number of a locksmith . lorenzo : carly ? there you are . carly : where else ? lorenzo : that 's what i 've been wondering . i left you several messages on your voicemail , none of which were returned , which makes me think you 've been up to something . would you like to tell me what ?

[ scene_break ] john : i was in a great deal of pain that night . i had no trouble at all feeling my legs . i woke up after the operation -- nothing . alexis : did you and ms. spencer have an argument prior to your surgery ? john : not immediately prior but , yes , there was an argument . in fact , if i had known that bobbie was going to be a part of the surgical team , i would have never allowed it . alexis : bobbie spencer has a reputation as being one of the best surgical nurses general hospital has to offer . why would n't you want her to treat you ? john : oh , gee , let me see . because she maybe threatened me earlier in the day ? bobbie : oh , that 's such a lie . ric : you 'll get your chance . bobbie : why ca n't you accept that what happened to you was an accident ? why are you trying to persecute me ? john : oh , you 're a fine one to talk about persecution . you take away my right , my chance to parent my only child . first , you neglect to mention that carly was ever conceived , then you gave her away to the first person that came along . why ? one reason and one reason only , bobbie -- revenge , because i dumped you , because i walked away from you , and i committed the cardinal sin of not returning your affection . but that was n't enough for you , was it , stealing my child , giving her away ? you saw me lying there helpless on the operating table . you saw your chance for permanent payback . this was no accident , and you are no angel , sweetheart , not that night and not today . you paralyzed me on purpose , and i 'm going to make damn sure that you suffer the consequences . [ scene_break ] carly : my father 's a lying pig . i do n't want you paying him one red cent . lorenzo : well , carly , we may not be able to avoid it . from my understanding , bobbie definitely acted outside the line of her job description . and if the decision that she made resulted in an injury , especially a serious one , general hospital will be liable and so will your mother . carly : she does n't have the kind of money durant 's looking for . lorenzo : no . she has the next best thing -- me . an out - of - court settlement is the best thing for everyone , so i put an offer on the table -- a conditional one , of course . carly : what did you ask for ? lorenzo : well , you mentioned needing a project , something you could focus on that has nothing to do with sonny . so i 've asked that you be made director of the general hospital charitable endowment . carly : are you serious ? lorenzo : it 's a complicated job , one that requires determination and fundraising ability , but you can learn that . and at the same time , you 'll be doing a lot of good . carly : ok , yeah , but this is -- i mean , it 's tantamount to being anointed queen of port charles . lila quartermaine headed the charitable endowment for years . tracy -- it was handed to tracy by divine right . lorenzo : well , now i 'm taking it from her and i 'm passing it on to you . carly : well , did my father accept the offer ? lorenzo : hmm . i 'm sure he will over time . and of course tracy balked , but i think she 'll come around when she realizes she has no choice . in the meantime , i 've called a board meeting for tonight -- carly : no , you did n't . jason : i need to talk to carly . carly : oh . lorenzo and i are just in the middle of something . i 'll call you later . jason : well , you know -- no , we need to have this conversation now , so whether it 's in front of alcazar or not , that 's up to you . carly : all right , well , speak freely . jason : ok . 15 minutes ago , you broke into reese 's penthouse , you hit her on the head , knocked her unconscious , and you left her lying there . i want to know why .

[ maxie sighs ] maxie : well , you have to admit -- it is pretty cool . [ phone rings ] mac : look , if you want to hear about the details , stick around for the press briefing outside . i have to take this . lucky : thank you .

[ scene_break ] mac : can i have your attention ? can i have your attention ? tonight , manuel ruiz was shot and killed by an officer in the port charles police department during the commission of a heinous crime . ruiz was a member of a well - known crime family and had a reputation as a cold - blooded killer . tonight , he was being sought for the kidnapping of samantha mccall . the officer responsible for the shooting secured miss mccall 's release and she is now safe . manny ruiz was in violation of probation and since his escape was wanted on a number of other violations . he has also been personally responsible for a 10-month reign of terror in the city of port charles . details of tonight 's events will be supplied to all of you as soon as we 're finished with the witnesses and we complete our reports . however , i would like to add that the officer responsible for bringing this monster to justice is in the eyes of this department and this city a bona fide hero . and i believe officer lucas lorenzo spencer jr. would like to make a brief statement . lucky ? lucky : thank you , commissioner . i have no comments on this evening 's events , but i would like to thank someone , someone who 's made it possible for me to be here tonight . she 's the bravest person that i know , and in recent months has given me more than i can say without asking for anything in return -- my wife . elizabeth spencer is a nurse at general hospital who was also once a victim to manny ruiz and survived to be the most loving , supportive wife any man could ever ask for . epiphany : you must be very proud . your husband is quite the hero . elizabeth : a hero .

[ scene_break ] heather : how dare you and that little cybergeek go after me . sam : look , if spinelli is investigating you -- heather : `` if `` ? i caught him trailing me . stealth is n't his strong suit , which seems odd , considering how dependent your business is on it . sam : no , spinelli and i are not business partners -- not anymore . so if he 's tailing you or investigating you , then you 've got to take it up with him . heather : your obvious virtues may fool men but not me . you 're awfully quiet . todd : i - i really do n't know what to say . heather : well , you could start by telling me what 's going on here -- the two of you , with your heads together on a holiday . and do n't lie to me . i 'm the gossip columnist . i know when someone 's feeding me a line . sam : todd was just about to tell me something . heather : that 's suspiciously vague . sam : it was ... something about my baby .

[ scene_break ] karen : do you believe in parallel universes ? dante : actually , ma'am , you know , i 'm having a difficult enough time with this one as it is . karen : somewhere , there is a karen anderson with a son who 's an artist , and perhaps there 's a detective named after a magnificent bird of prey who 's trying to find her , and he 's accompanied by a silent companion . but not here , not in woodstock . i 'm sorry your trip is wasted . dante : well , thank you for your patience , but we got to find the other karen anderson . it 's pretty urgent . karen : oh . i hope for her sake there 's no problem with her son . dante : actually , her son is in trouble , and we have reason to believe that he 'll come to her for help . you got to know franco pretty good . i mean , did he mention his family ever ? jason : no , never talked about his personal life . even at his loft , there were no pictures of his family at all , just art -- you know , pictures of crime scenes with dead bodies . franco was obsessed with death , and he liked to taunt the cops and get them to go wherever he wanted them to go . karen : he sounds like an artist , not a very nice one . misunderstood , perhaps . dante : and you have no relation ? you do n't know anything about him ? karen : as i said , i have no children . but violence is evil energy . i hope franco finds peace in this world . [ scene_break ] franco : i hope you like my gift . maxie : crime scene photo was a gift ? franco : yeah , a valuable one . my work 's selling better than ever . maxie : good for you . franco : see , people are fascinated by what they fear . death , of course , is one of our most primal fears . people like to believe if they own a photograph of death , somehow , they have control over it . they 're wrong . maxie : you would know . franco : i like the photograph 's composition -- body on the diagonal juxtaposed with the wall . it 's a nice balance , pleasing to the eye . maxie : oh , right , but it 's a real crime scene photo , which means someone 's really dead . franco : yeah . does it matter ? i mean , is your response to the photo any different just 'cause you suspect it might be real ? the photograph 's real , whether or not what it depicts really happened . maxie : is there anything else i can do for you ? franco : yeah . you can open your mind and stop thinking . what 's real and what you imagine to be real are the same thing . what i am is what you make me . maxie : oh , no . you are much more than i ever could have imagined . franco : try me . want to do something for me ? maxie : not really . franco : say hi to jason .

[ scene_break ] dante : well , thank you for the tea and for hearing us out . i 'm sorry we 've wasted your time . karen : everything happens for a reason . the universe unfolds as it will , whether we see it clearly or not . good luck with your search . dante : have a nice night . dante : well , that was a dead end . jason : yeah , we could check for other karen andersons . dante : the office already did . that was the only one that fit the profile . jason : so what do we do now ? dante : well , we 're back to square one . i mean , we know franco 's here . we know he 's back . we do n't know where he is . jason : well , then we might have to wait for him to make a move after all . dante : and then we 're reacting to the guy again . i do n't like that . it puts us in a vulnerable position . [ scene_break ] sonny : patrick , where 's kristina ? patrick : she was just brought in . sonny : how is she ? patrick : she 's remarkably well for being yards away from a car bomb exploding . alexis : how is she ? patrick : she 's stable . she 's in good condition . alexis : where is she ? patrick : with dr. webber . he 's doing some tests . and johnny 's with her . sonny : how soon can we see her ? alexis : i do n't think that you should go in there right now . that 'd just cause undue stress . sonny : really , alexis ? okay . you know what ? whatever you think is best . do n't shut me out of her life , please , okay ? [ scene_break ] maxie : spinelli , that sounds wonderful , but maybe we should wait a while . spinelli : well , opportunity knocks , as they say . maxie : i just ca n't be selfish . i mean , franco has been leaving his corpse calling cards all over town , and i really think you need to focus your skills on finding him . spinelli : as much as i wish to aid in his capture , i find myself having some conflicting emotions . maxie : where 's the conflict ? franco is a murderer . he needs to be locked up . spinelli : yes , but once he 's apprehended , stone cold goes back to prison . so i 'm kind of inclined to drag out the investigation as long as possible . maxie : no , you ca n't . [ scene_break ] dante : so , what do we got so far ? jason : well , we have 3 photographs of dead bodies at crime scenes . dante : real crimes , all unsolved , different parts of the country . franco either committed the murders himself , or he took the pictures of the victims after they were already killed . jason : and he sent 3 pictures to 3 different people -- you , maxie , who he used and slept with , and josslyn , who 's only a baby . dante : that 's the one that worries me the most , josslyn . i mean , he already threatened her once . he broke into the jacks house , spray - painted his signature tag all over the nursery wall , kidnapped her mother . why send the photos ? jason : 'cause franco wants us to know that he can get to josslyn if he does n't get what he wants . the question is , what does he want ? dante : well , we 're not going to get anything by standing around here . let 's get back to the station . [ scene_break ] skye : why are you hanging on so tightly to carly when you know she will always choose sonny over you ? jax : oh , no . that 's not true anymore . skye : oh , come on , jax . you know they share this long , complicated history . you ca n't even begin to compete with him . i 'm not saying it 's good or it 's healthy , but it 's there . jax : okay , i 'm aware of that , all right ? skye : please , okay , look . remove the rose - colored glasses and just accept the fact that sonny has been the number one problem since the day you and carly met . and yes , she 'll bitch and moan about the guy . but you know what ? she thinks he 's great . she thinks he 's this great father , you know -- jax : listen to me , okay ? it all changed when michael went to prison for killing claudia , okay ? she finally realized that sonny 's an unacceptable danger to her and the kids . skye : and you know this because ? jax : because she wants me to adopt morgan . that 's sonny 's biological kid , okay ? and she 's not doing that to be mean to sonny . she 's doing it because she knows what 's best for her child . and once i sign those papers , it 's a done deal . skye : your face really lights up when you talk about him . jax : yeah . he 's a wonderful , smart kid . he 's honest and dependable and funny . he 's great company . skye : it sounds like you could be describing yourself . jax : thanks . skye : oh . i know i sound prejudiced , but carly does not deserve you . jax : oh , carly 's a better person than you realize . skye : oh , please . all that aside , including sonny . what about jason ? jax : well , he 's another story . skye : does n't she describe him as her very best friend ? jax : yes , she does -- even more so now that he got himself sent to pentonville for 2 to 5 just so he can baby - sit michael . skye : hmm . quite a sacrifice . jax : okay , fine . it was an extraordinary thing to do . skye : yes . so jason will always be a permanent fixture in carly 's life . there will always be another man in your marriage . jax : yes . skye : and you 're okay with that . jax : no . skye : well , then , there 's your answer . jax : but i 'm still not willing to give up my marriage to carly . [ scene_break ] alexis : so , patrick , you saw her yourself , right ? so she 's okay , yes ? patrick : yeah . she was awake and responsive when she came in . alexis : okay . what tests are they giving her ? patrick : basic tests . they 'll probably do some bloodwork , a cat scan . it 's all standard procedure . it 's exactly what i would do if i was dr. webber . alexis : okay . so we 're not going to worry . johnny : kristina 's still with dr. webber -- alexis : hey , hey . no , no , no . you have no right to be here . you need to leave . i told you to stay away from her , and you did n't listen . she 's 17 years old ! what the hell were you thinking ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : stone cold had himself incarcerated solely to protect young sir , who 's now been freed , yet stone cold has to go back to prison . do n't you have any sympathy for that ordeal ? maxie : yeah . jason did an amazing thing . there 's no one on earth i would voluntarily go to prison for . not even you , spinelli , even though i love you . spinelli : yes . few people would make such a sacrifice . and it seems only fair that stone cold should be granted permanent freedom . but alas , it is not to be . maxie : it is unfair , but jason agreed to the temporary leave so he could catch franco . and i know he 's expecting your help . you do n't want to let him down , do you ? spinelli : of course not . maxie : and it does n't seem okay to give a serial killer extra time to stalk and kill and show up out of nowhere all creepy like franco the first time he was in port charles . i mean , who knows what he would have planned this time around ? spinelli : that 's a point well taken . just the thought of stone cold re- incarcerated -- maxie : it 's awful , i know . not as awful as franco on the loose . so maybe the answer is to figure out a way for jason to go on the run after franco 's caught . [ scene_break ] alexis : she 's in there because of you . sam : molly 's here . this is not appropriate . alexis : you do n't see her again . you stay away from her . johnny : i would leave . i would -- kristina made me promise that i would stay , and i told her that i would keep that promise . i 'm sorry . steve : interesting . we 'll get out of the way . patrick : yeah , of course . steve : kristina 's going to be fine , and i also checked shirley 's chart . she 's stabilized and doing well . patrick : great . steve : congratulations again on your brilliant surgery . patrick : thank you . steve : here comes your partner in crime . lisa : hey . let me guess -- you came back here to check on shirley , too . patrick : yep . steve : i was just telling patrick she 's doing amazingly well . lisa : oh , good . steve : after what you two pulled off , i 'm surprised you 're not out celebrating . lisa : oh , we were . we stopped by the metro court for a quick drink , and then , i came back here , patrick went home to check on emma , and then , he came back here , obviously . patrick : well , now that i know shirley 's okay , i 'm going to take off . lisa : okay . i 'll see you tomorrow . bye . oh . i need a coffee . i 'm going to grab one . steve : well , kristina has had a thorough checkup and came through with flying colors . alexis : oh , thank god . no concussion , no internal damage ? steve : there 's nothing , no . but i did order a cat scan as a precaution . her prognosis is excellent . sam : when can we see her ? steve : as soon as the test is done . molly : and then she can come home , right ? steve : i 'm not seeing why not , honey . sam : well , krissy got really lucky . alexis : yeah , she did . will you keep an eye on her ? i 've got to go somewhere . i 'll be right back . something i got to take care of .

[ scene_break ] sonny : kristina almost died tonight . max : what are you talking about ? sonny : johnny realized at the last moment what was going on , and he pulled kristina away . if he had n't , she 'd be dead . max : is she going to be okay ? sonny : thank god . no one can tie me to this , okay ? if anybody knows i put that bomb in johnny 's car , i wo n't be able to see my daughter . do you understand ? max : yes . no one is going to know , mr. c. all right , look . the demolition guy 's back in argentina . the setup points to the lopez brothers , who johnny 's been known to deal with . sonny : you need to get yourself an alibi . and down the line , we need to get one of the lopez brothers to take the fall for this . max : i got it . sonny : how long you been standing there ? michael : long enough . i know what you did , dad .

[ abby and ethan chuckle ] [ scene_break ] jax : you see , i want you on that stand because i want the judge to hear first- hand what a huge mistake carly made by allowing you to guard our daughter . you suffer from post - traumatic stress disorder , is that not correct ? shawn : i received treatment . jax : yes , and you are a mercenary who works for the highest bidder . not that i expect that you 'd admit that in court . shawn : jason hired me because he knew i could protect your daughter from franco . jax : you know what the best part about this is ? that you were dishonorably discharged from the marines , for reasons we both know . shawn : and we both know those records were sealed . jax : yeah , well , you know , carly would n't have seen them anyway , because she did n't bother to perform a proper background check on you . shawn : as soon as carly learned about my dishonorable discharge , she terminated my employment . you got what you wanted . i have n't even been in this town for the past month . jax : you should n't have been guarding my daughter in the first place . the fact that carly allowed that is further proof that she is not capable of providing a safe environment for josslyn . shawn : you know , josslyn 's got a great mother . you ought to be thankful , instead of fighting to take that poor child away from her . you know , you keep it up and i guarantee that karma 's gon na come back and bite you square in the ass .

[ scene_break ] michael : hey . kristina : do you know where your girlfriend is ? michael : she 's probably at her apartment . she 's not due in till later . kristina : she 's at kelly 's , hanging all over ethan . michael : that does n't sound like abby . kristina : michael , i know what i saw . she was holding ethan 's hand reminiscing about her good old days as a stripper , how she danced just for him , and she loved how appreciative he was and how he gave big tips . michael : well , i guess that kind of tells you something about ethan , does n't it ? kristina : michael , it was beyond sleazy . abby was totally hitting on him . michael : i doubt that . kristina : are you saying i 'm lying ? michael : no , i 'm saying if something sets you off , you can get a little carried away . kristina : well , i 'm sorry i did n't have a cell phone to take a picture . michael : when you called abby out , what did she say ? kristina : well , i did n't . i was too shocked . the whole thing was embarrassing to watch . anyway , i took off . michael : well , i trust abby , so whatever you think that you saw , you probably did n't . kristina : michael , i 've been warning you for months -- abby 's stringing you along for the money . ethan 's the guy that she wants , but she 's not going to get him . [ scene_break ] ethan : is your father around ? johnny : he 's at the park sniffing roses . what 's going on ? ethan : did he mention what he was up to last night ? johnny : no , i have n't heard any reports about corinthos warehouses being torched or body counts , so i imagine he was on his best behavior . ethan : he accosted kristina and dangled threats about how sonny killed his daughter and he needs to return the favor . johnny : kristina told you this ? ethan : i saw it . i told anthony to back the hell off . johnny : ooh , that must have scared him . ethan : this is not a joke , john . kristina was really shaken up . johnny : apparently you were , too . ethan : just please tell me you 're not gon na put on blinders while anthony targets women and children . [ scene_break ] alexis : you have no proof that carly has endangered josslyn , much less put her life at risk . jax : michael was shot in the head . are we all forgetting that ? alexis : how many times do we have to go through that , jax ? that does not constitute evidence . he was shot while he was with sonny on property that sonny owned . jax : right . and carly takes josslyn to sonny 's house . so ... alexis : no gunshot was exchanged there , so if you try to make sonny look like he 's a danger to josslyn because michael was shot , it 's like saying that a bus can crash , so carly should n't take josslyn on a bus because it 's dangerous . it 's a specious argument . jax : it 's ridiculous and i disagree with you . alexis : i 'm your friend . i know you 're a good parent . but this judge does n't necessarily know that . and from my lawyer perspective , carly 's looking better and better to this court . jax : it 's the judge 's job to make a decision in the best interest of the child , right ? alexis : yeah . well , the court 's interpretation and yours are two entirely different things . jax : i intend to demonstrate that i 'm better for josslyn , that i can keep her safe . ok ? alexis : obviously my lawyerly appeal is falling upon deaf ears , so i am going to talk to you as a friend . jax : oh , well , you 've tried that already and i disagreed with you , which you hate , but go ahead , please . alexis : so i 'm going to tell you what i think as someone who loves you . jax : oh , that 's just ... alexis : i think that carly hurt you , and you would be less than human if a part of you did n't want to hurt her back . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . shawn : hey . carly : glad to have you back in town . how 's the new job ? shawn : oh , it was a short - term gig . it went well . private security to cover a business trip in a hot spot . carly : well , they hired the perfect man . shawn : hey , how 's josslyn ? carly : uh , well , she misses you . it seems that you taught her cat 's cradle , so she keeps picking up yarn and string and trying to do it . [ laughs ] shawn : i 'm sorry i ca n't see her . carly : me , too . i just ca n't , you know , until after the custody battle is over . shawn : well , that 's what i wanted to tell you . a subpoena was waiting when i got back . jax is calling me as a witness . carly : yeah , i 'm not surprised . shawn : hey , i 'm sorry . carly : no , do n't apologize . shawn : well , jax is gon na drag up my friendly fire incident and twist it to claim you hired a murderous thug to guard josslyn . carly : jason wanted to keep her safe from franco , he said you were the best- qualified person for the job , and he was right . shawn : yeah , well , be that as it may , i should have told you about my past before i took the job . carly : even if you had , i would have hired you anyway . shawn : are you sure about that ? carly : yes , because i have great instincts . shawn : well , thanks to your instincts , you may lose your daughter . carly : stop blaming yourself . i should be apologizing to you . jax is trying to make me give in by targeting everyone i care about . [ scene_break ] sam : hey . how are you ? jason : you left early this morning . where 'd you go ? sam : i know . i did . oh ! mmm ... i went to work . i had to go to the office . but i brought us some bagels and coffee . jason : mmm . thank you . i guess you 're covering for spinelli now that he 's not himself . sam : yes , i am . he 's on the prowl . and he 's never at the office , and i do n't know anything about computers , so i am trying to pick up the slack . jason : maybe you need my help . sam : thank you . but no , you 've got your hands full . jason : that is true . carly came by and told me jax is gon na subpoena me to the custody hearing . sam : oh , i 'm sorry . that 's the last thing you need . jason : no , i figured he 'd do it , so ... sam : i just do n't get it . i thought jax would realize that taking the baby away from carly would be a really bad idea . jason : that 's what carly thinks . sam : she 's really upset , huh ? i mean , after all these years and then this . jason : yeah , carly made me promise never to let her get married again . [ scene_break ] carly : you went above and beyond while josslyn was in the hospital . you played with her , you made her laugh , you kept me company , you listened to all my family drama . you were a good friend . i owe you . shawn : i was glad to do it . it felt good to be doing something positive instead of getting paid to intimidate . carly : i 'm just so sorry that jax is gon na turn it all around . shawn : well , he never liked that i was guarding you or josslyn . but i had no idea how hard he 'd push back . carly : and his lawyer , alexis davis , she 's good , and she 's going to rip your past apart on the stand . shawn : you do n't have to worry about me . i 've learned to live with the consequences of my actions . carly : you know , sometimes when i look around , i see what this custody battle 's doing to all the people around me , i just want to ... give up . and then i think about being a visitor in josslyn 's life and letting jax dictate where and when i see my daughter , and i just ... i ca n't stop fighting . [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm not trying to punish carly . i 'm trying to save my daughter . and if you do n't believe me by now , i 'm not gon na convince you . alexis : i believe that you 're very sincere about your concern for josslyn . [ jax sighs ] alexis : in part because it 's an acceptable place to put your anger , and you 're -- jax : yes . and i have every right to be angry . i 'm trying to save my kid here . alexis : you wo n't allow yourself to be mad at carly for ending your marriage . you wo n't fight for the divorce , so you 're fighting for josslyn . jax : that 's ridiculous . i would never put any of us through this just to lash out at carly . alexis : oh . by any of us , do you mean michael and morgan ? because , you know , we do n't need the boys . jax : look , michael is a perfect example of what a horrible mother carly is . alexis : do you really want to hold him up there like some freak , like some brain - damaged ex - con who 's too dangerous to be around his sister ? jax : no , i do n't want to do that . i 'm hoping that it wo n't come to that . alexis : and what about morgan ? you 've been his stepfather for years . you take him sailing , disneyland , you endure all those karate tournaments . jax : i love morgan . alexis : then why would you put him through this ? why would you make him have to answer questions ? no matter what he says , no matter what happens , he 's gon na blame himself . jax : ok . you know what ? then schedule the boys ' deposition last . that way if carly decides to compromise , then the boys wo n't have to testify at all . alexis : by compromise , you mean that carly accepts visitation and you get sole custody ? 'cause she 's not gon na do that . i would n't do that . jax : well , she does n't have much of a choice , does she ? alexis : you are dangerously overconfident . jax : carly and i are gon na meet with the mediator tonight , and i 'm sure that this woman is going to see that i can provide a safer environment for josslyn . alexis : not if she thinks you 're smug , arrogant , and entitled . jax : that 's not very nice . alexis : like i said , i know you 're a great guy , but this mediator does n't necessarily know that . and this custody case is not bringing out the best aspects of your personality . so i would proceed with care . jax : i 'm sure that shawn butler has run to carly by now , and she 's livid . i 'm sure she wants to tell me in person how unfair i 'm being and that she 's never gon na give up fighting for josslyn , so the timing will be pretty perfect . alexis : so the mediator 's gon na walk in on carly unloading on you ? is that what you planned ? jax : i ca n't control what carly 's going to do . you know ? i better get back to the office , do some work . it appears your air - conditioner man is a no - show . alexis : good . then i 'll call them and scream at them , because it 'll help me unload some of my hostility . jax : ok , i love you . alexis : i love you , too . jax : bye - bye . alexis : bye . jax . jax : yes ? alexis : do n't get so locked in to what you want that you miss the chance to do what 's right for your daughter . jax : do n't worry about me . i 'm gon na be fine . alexis : i am worried about you . really worried . [ scene_break ] kristina : i know that you think abby 's irresistible , but ethan is not into her . michael : ethan just got divorced . he 's gon na be looking for women to date . kristina : well , in case you have n't noticed , ethan cares about me . michael : well , obviously not the way you want . look , i know you like this guy a lot . but this whole abby thing is a reality check . abby : whatever she told you , i can explain . kristina : please , i 'd really like to see you try to deny that you 've hanging on ethan . [ scene_break ] johnny : i doubt my father meant kristina any harm . ethan : you doubt ? johnny : he plays games . what can i say ? ethan : your father is psychotic . johnny : not that i disagree with you there , but in this particular case , i 'm sure he was hoping kristina would run to sonny and set him off . ethan : he told kristina that she 'd be on her way to class at pcu or on her way to the gym and simply vanish . johnny : he likes to manipulate people , get a reaction . ethan : tell me he 's never hurt a woman or a child . johnny : why are you so worried about this ? ethan : look , john , you 're one of my best friends , ok ? and i 'm grateful for all the work you threw my way , but you already took advantage of kristina once and it almost got both of you killed . johnny : that actually started out as her idea . ethan : i know it was her idea . i 'm just saying that you owe her more than a shrug . johnny : look , i like kristina . i do . but you 're overreacting . it 's not like she does n't have a line a mile long of men in her life trying to protect her . why are you so worried ? ethan : i happen to care about kristina . [ scene_break ] sam : marriage is one of those things that looks a lot easier than it is . jason : yeah , but , you know , people kind of get into it without really thinking it through . sam : exactly . they figure that since they 're in love or they think they are that that 's it , but it 's not . jason : yeah , but two people really have to know each other -- sam : yes , and have the same values and basic interests in life . i mean , come on , jason , at least 50 % of marriages end up in divorce anyway . jason : well , i guess that really depends on the couple . sam : it does . i mean , look at jax and carly , for example . i think jax thought that he could be with carly and coexist with you and sonny , and then he thought that he would be able to change her and be the only man that she needed . jason : that 's not how carly thinks . sam : no , but then he realized that , and then his resentment just grew and grew and grew . jason : ok . we are not like carly and jax . sam : yes , i know , jason . and the last thing i would ever want is for us to resent each other . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . robin : how 'd it go ? elizabeth : well , it 's kind of hard to tell . the board did n't show much reaction as i answered their questions , but they 're in deliberation now . matt : well , i told them you were an excellent nurse and that this hospital needs you . patrick : so did i . robin : we all did . elizabeth : oh , thank you , guys . i appreciate it . but i do take responsibility for my actions . i almost killed a patient . i understand if the board fires me . patrick : i do n't think they 'll do that . elizabeth : i hope not , 'cause i love this place . general hospital is part of my life . that 's probably one of the reasons why i came back to work too soon . i was just hoping it would help me heal the pain of losing jake . and i 'm really , really sorry that i put you all in a position that you had to cover for me . robin : and we 're sorry for not realizing what was going on . steve : well ... elizabeth : hey . so ? steve : the board is suspending you for three months , and when you return , you wo n't be allowed in the o.r . for another six months . elizabeth : ok . i mean , that 's not so bad . steve : your performance records have been exemplary over the years , and they 're putting your errors in context . elizabeth : what about you ? steve : two months probation . it 's minor in the scheme of things . elizabeth : i 'm so sorry to put you through all this . steve : you use this time wisely , and maybe now you can start to heal . elizabeth : ok . patrick : well , i guess it could have been worse . matt : yeah . robin : yeah . elizabeth : wow . siobhan : i see smiling faces . is elizabeth off the hook for trying to kill me ? [ scene_break ] ethan : losing maya was a kick in the teeth , and kristina helped me through it , as a friend . johnny : kristina 's a good kid . she does n't come without drama , but , hey , she 's her father 's daughter . ethan : ok , let 's say owe her , all right ? but if you and anthony are gearing up for war against sonny , you know i 'll help in any way i can . i 'm just asking that you leave kristina and the kids out of it . johnny : i 'll have a chat . anthony : look what the cat dragged in . [ door closes ] johnny : i hear you two had a little chat last night . anthony : i was having a pleasant conversation with that sweet girl kristina corinthos when your flunky came charging up to play hero , implying i was a threat to the little darling . it was insulting . he needs a lesson in respect . ethan : you 're lucky i did n't break your jaw . anthony : see what i mean ? ethan : look , you stay away from kristina or i 'll make you wish you had . anthony : what could you do ? ethan : i have a knack for improvisation . it 's a family trait . so you can either back off or i could improvise you back to prison or i could improvise you to a long overdue grave . your choice . anthony : i 'm not liking his attitude . johnny : i 'm not liking that you talked to kristina . anthony : that was just a start .

[ scene_break ] sonny : joe jr. has not changed . he 's still a liar and a coward . he tried to pretend that he did n't remember kate like he did n't -- he swore up and down he did n't rape her -- that she came on to him . jason : he did n't make you doubt her . sonny : no . i mean , i know them both too well . and i ca n't even think of kate as connie anymore , but she -- she always thought joe was dirt , tolerated him because i worked for his father . that 's why she made plans for us to go away . she was going to college . i was gon na get out of the neighborhood , and joe jr. stopped all that . had my finger on the trigger . ready . and who walks in ? jason : mcbain . sonny : i said to mc -- i said , `` look , just look away . let me do this . `` he refused . always the good cop -- upholding the law . [ scene_break ] mcbain : i was face - to - face with the guy who killed my sister . sam : who , sonny ? mcbain : corinthos did n't kill theresa . sam : wow . then who did ? mcbain : now , that 's a good question , sam . sam : hey , take it -- take it easy , friend . mcbain : oh . do n't worry . we , uh -- we go way back . here . sam : uh , i 'm -- i 'm okay . look -- wait a minute . if all the evidence pointed to sonny , how was it possible that he did n't do it ? mcbain : he took the fall for the dirt bag who did . that 's what i saw . i walked in , i saw theresa dead on the ground and sonny kneeling over her with a gun in his hand . you know , 9 times out of 10 , that 's your case . that 's what they teach you at the academy . this time , i was wrong . sam : you ca n't blame yourself . it was a cover - up . mcbain : oh , i can blame myself -- for good reason . [ scene_break ] jason : well , mcbain put his faith in the system . if joe jr. walks , he 's gon na have to live with it . sonny : that 's not all he 's gon na have to live with . before the cops showed up , uh -- mcbain insisted on questioning joe -- on why he killed his sister . should have left it alone . jason : why ? sonny : because it was mcbain 's fault she died .

[ scene_break ] mcbain : i was trying to help theresa . and that 's what i promised my old man , that i would find her and i 'd make sure she was okay . sam : what was she like ? mcbain : pretty . sam : [ chuckles ] mcbain : but guarded , defensive . i remember , she was always pushing her hair behind her ears , you know , like that . sam : that means she was nervous . mcbain : she told me she could n't just -- she could n't just quit the club . their boss would n't let her walk away . i told her i could protect her . i begged her -- to meet me again , but she told me she had to get back to work , and she said she 'd have to think about it . as she was walking away , she kind of looked back over her shoulder , and she gave me a little wave . that 's the last time i saw my sister alive . sam : she did n't have to go back into that club , you know . she could have made the choice to get into the car with you and drive away . mcbain : oh , she did n't even know me , you know ? i 'm just this guy that shows up one day , promising her to take her away from all this . it was a rookie move . someone -- someone saw her talking to me . that 's why they killed her . you know , i 'm sorry . you do n't -- you do n't -- [ scene_break ] jason : joe jr . killed theresa for talking to a fed ? sonny : that 's what he claims . the truth is , i never saw joe jr. pull out a gun on any other dancer , so maybe it was more than just him being pissed off 'cause she turned him down . jason : well , maybe he wanted mcbain to blame himself . sonny : mcbain should 've known better than to approach his sister in public . now , he did n't kill her directly -- but you know what ? definitely put her at risk . jason : and now he 's got to carry it . i definitely can , uh -- can relate to that . sonny : you 're not sympathizing with mcbain , are you ? jason : no , i 'm just saying . sonny : well , then why -- jason : i 'm not gon na make any judgments . i can relate . it 's my fault sam 's baby died .

[ scene_break ] anna : so just say heather webber is a person of interest . spinelli : heather webber is a person of interest . anna : what can you tell me about her ? spinelli : evidently , heather helped herself to olivia 's car the night of the storm , when the cell tower was knocked out . anna : oh , that 's when anthony 's body went missing . spinelli : what ? i 'm sorry . what ? anna : no . do you know where she went ? spinelli : well , she was observed by an officer out on route 59 . see , the road was closed , and the officer advised her to go back . anna : what was she doing by herself out on route 59 ? that 's -- spinelli : here 's the thing . the officer said she was not alone but she was accompanied by her husband . anna : i did not know she was married . spinelli : that 's where it gets interesting . according to ferncliff records , she 's not . but she told the officer that the man riding shotgun was , indeed , her spouse . anna : did the officer question this man ? spinelli : no , he could n't . the man was massively intoxicated .

[ both laugh ] michael : uh , well , there 's a canoe . i guess , technically , that would be considered paddling , but -- starr : yeah . that 's good enough . have you ever played rock the boat ? michael : rock the boat . no , i never played rock the boat . does n't sound too fun . starr : you know how to swim , right ? michael : yeah , i spent my summers -- well , all my summers -- at my dad 's island . starr : your dad has an island ? michael : yeah , it 's a casino resort , near puerto rico . between the ocean and the pool , i can definitely swim . why do you ask ? what does it have to do with rock the boat ? starr : you 'll see .

[ scene_break ] jason : i sent the guys after mcbain . he could n't get sam and the baby to the hospital . it 's my fault . sonny : this is the business we 're in . mcbain knows that more than anybody . should 've known not to provoke you . jason : sam 's baby still died , sonny . it does n't matter . sonny : there 's no way of even knowing that she was in mcbain 's motel room and he just delivered the baby . jason : i gave the order ! it 's my responsibility . sam ca n't forgive me for that . sonny : she could have been at her house or at her mother 's house or whatever . she did n't have to be nine - months pregnant in a motel room and then , once the baby was born , take a walk into the woods with him . jason : she was in shock . sonny : okay . so you can make allowances for her , but she -- jason : it 's nice that you 're sticking up for me . it 's more than just how the baby died . it was the fact that i could n't promise to accept him until it was too late . sonny : well , you know what ? i 'm sure that sam still needs you . she just -- she 's gon na realize it . jason : i 'm not so sure . whatever 's going on between her and mcbain -- it 's still happening .

[ scene_break ] luke : anna devane is n't your garden - variety cop , heather . she 's had years of experience tracking missing persons , solving disappearances . she 's gon na ask a lot of questions , and the answers are gon na lead her right here , to our little `` love nest , `` pookie . heather : well , i certainly hope not , for your sake . because if anna devane becomes , well , too difficult , i could be very assertive , in terms of problem- solving . luke : i thought you were cured . i thought this was the new - and - improved heather webber . heather : it is . i 'm branching out . [ chuckles ] luke : what 's that ? heather : proof you can teach an old dog new tricks . your precious anna devane could n't have come up with this . [ scene_break ] anna : could the officer have been mistaken ? could the man he saw with heather have actually been -- dead dead ? spinelli : i mean , nothing that the officer told me would contradict that theory . anna : could the man he saw with heather have been anthony zacchara ? spinelli : i 'm well - acquainted with the elder zacchara , and he is older with -- white hair and slender build , which perfectly fits the description the officer gave me . anna : what ? are you sure ? this is what the officer said , that this man was older , slight , with white hair ? spinelli : and it 's public record that anthony 's gone missing . do you think that heather webber killed -- anna : i do n't think anything . spinelli : no ? anna : no . i 'm just gathering information here . now , do you happen to have the officer 's badge number ? spinelli : uh , yes , yes , of course . anna : okay . anna : yeah , you just text it to me . spinelli : so , heather webber is chiron , eh ? ferrying the dead -- across the river styx . anna : yeah , i got it . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , out of everyone , sam reaches out to a cop who 's investigating us . jason : mcbain delivered sam 's baby . he was the only one who actually saw sam 's son when he was alive . maybe she feels like he 's the only guy who can understand . sonny : so she 's shutting you out . jason : yeah , just like i did to her . sonny : when ? jason : when she told me that franco was the baby 's father . look , all sam wanted to hear was that things were gon na be okay , and i could n't -- i could n't say it . then i find out she 's confiding in mcbain , i get angry , i shut down , i could n't say the things that sam needed to hear , and when i tried , it was -- it was too late . sonny : could you have loved the baby ? really ? jason : yeah . yeah , i could have . but sam does n't -- she 's -- she does n't believe it . she thinks i 'm glad the baby 's gone , and there 's no coming back from that . [ scene_break ] sam : heather webber -- former mental patient at ferncliff . they should 've never let her out of that place to begin with . that woman is obsessed with me in a major way . mcbain : yeah , i remember you talking about her . sam : yeah , well , guess what . she is not finished with me yet . heather somehow found out that jason sent those guys to beat you up . mcbain : how 'd she know that ? sam : i do n't know . apparently , she has her sources . and she also could n't wait to tell me that it was jason 's fault that my baby died . mcbain : you ca n't blame all this on jason , you know . he had no way of knowing what was gon na happen . sam : hey , look , i do n't want to talk about what jason did or did n't do . mcbain : okay . sam : the whole thing just -- it makes me really upset . it 's just that -- i do n't know why heather made it a point of telling me . she just wants to make me suffer . [ scene_break ] heather : when people cross me , i cross them out . but this is inspired , even for me . luke : [ chuckling ] you -- you are crazy as a bag of cats . heather : i 'll allow that . meow ! you know , i really am the puppet master . i just pull the strings , and everybody dances for me . right now , i bet sam is doing a texas two - step . luke : sam ? sam morgan ? what 'd you do to her ? heather : mmm . luke : does it got something to do with that paper you 're waving around ? heather : mm - hmm . luke : come on , heather . you know you want to show it to me . do it -- show it to me . come on , come on . heather : i 'd love to . but i do n't trust you . luke : really ? after all we 've been through here ? all that i can remember , anyway . heather : if you promise to behave , i 'll give you a chance to prove your loyalty . luke : bring it on , lady liberty . heather : all right . here 's what i want you to do . write a letter to anna devane and tell her it 's over . you said you wanted me to trust you . [ scene_break ] anna : so , if i 'm right and this officer can identify anthony as the supposed husband of heather , who was traveling with her , then she 's got to be able to tell us where the body is now . spinelli : is it your belief that heather has been conspiring with someone in particular ? if , indeed , anthony is dead and she is not the killer , then she must have got the body from someone . anna : yeah . well , first things first . we have to tie heather to anthony . spinelli : `` we . `` may i dare hope that the esteemed commissioner views my humble safe as a colleague ? anna : yeah . well , let 's not jump the gun , but , yes , i do definitely appreciate your help very much . [ cell phone rings ] anna : yes . commissioner devane . okay . yeah . okay . all right . yeah , yeah . no , i get it . thanks . spinelli : w - was that the officer ? anna : yeah , it was . so , while he says that anthony does sort of fit the general description of this man that was traveling with heather , he ca n't positively i.d . him . spinelli : okay . well , then the negative must also be true , that the officer can not say with certainty that it was not anthony zacchara . anna : i mean , he just confirmed that that 's the place where he pulled them over . spinelli : yes , and it is a remote spot . i mean , the only structure nearby is the rendezvous motel . other than that , it 's just open country and woods . anna : and that 's where heather caught you following her . spinelli : yes . at the very spot where she caused irreparable harm to my poor digital - recording device . anna : could you take me there ? spinelli : i would be honored . anna : let 's go . spinelli : okay . [ scene_break ] maxie : [ scoffs ] i wish spinelli were still speaking to me . he 'd be able to tell me if this is dangerous or not . you found it ? lulu : that one . you tell me . maxie : um -- yeah .

[ scene_break ] sonny : it 's like , for some reason , you 're looking backwards . that 's not how you think . you got to stop crucifying yourself over things you do n't intend . and stop trying to change everything . that 's what you got to do . jason : i 'm just trying to figure out how -- how sam and i got to this place -- sonny : right . right . jason : -- and what i 'm -- what i 'm supposed to do . if she really does n't -- want to be with me , if i 'm a constant reminder of -- of the child she lost -- i 'm hurting her by hanging on . sonny : well , at this point , i do n't think sam knows what she wants . and you know what ? she 's in a place where she 's hiding her pain with anger . jason : you know , i stopped by the , uh -- chinese restaurant -- where sam and i got married . you know , just for a second , i just -- i wanted to go -- i wanted to go inside . i wanted to -- just to visit that place where we were happy .

[ clears throat ] relationship with franco had ... gone stale ? nina : yeah , it went stale . he 's with someone else . [ scene_break ] franco : this is crazy . ava : imagine living through it . i survived the jailbreak . silas nursed me back to health . franco : you were shot . you were tossed off of a bridge . ava : yes . franco : you were a goner . ava : and how would you know ? you deserted me . you ran off like a rat , leaving me to carlos ' mercy . `` you 're all on your own , just how you like it . `` do you remember ? that 's what you said to me . [ flashback ] ava : franco ! franco : what ? ava : do n't leave me . franco : oh , come on . you 're all on your own . that 's just how you like it . ava : how do you know that 's what i said ? because i was there . because i 'm me ... ava . franco : hello , ava . ava : welcome to the show , franco . [ scene_break ] dante : i 'm sorry , lesley . lulu ca n't come to the phone right now . she 's , uh ... [ sniffs ] well , she 's dealing rocco . he 's feeling a little sick , and ... [ sniffs ] yeah , i will . i will , lesley . you , too . yeah , buona notte . valerie : how 's she doing ? dante : she 's fine . sounds like she 's fit as a fiddle . no sprained ankle . no lulu there to help her out . valerie : dante , i 'm so sorry . dante : why are you sorry ? sorry 'cause my wife is lying to me ? 'cause now i 'm lying for her . i do n't even know why i bothered doing that . [ slams cell phone ] dante : oh , man . valerie : because even though you 're angry ... dante : hmm . valerie : you still care enough about lulu to protect her . dante : yeah , almost as much as she cares about me , apparently . so much so that she ran out on her family to go and screw dillon quartermaine . [ scene_break ] dillon : think we 're in the clear ? laura : are you sure you 're all right ? lucky : yes , mom , i 'm fine , really . luke : some timing you 've got there . lucky : well , i would 've been here sooner , but i wanted to stop for a sandwich . luke : ha ! comedian . laura : [ laughs ] luke : come here , you . lucky : it 's good to see you , dad . luke : ah , same here . laura : not exactly the way i pictured our family reunion , but ... lucky : yeah . hey , where 's ethan ? laura : he 's at the hospital . luke : he , uh -- your brother 's fine . he just got shot in the shoulder , but , uh , holly took him to the hospital . lucky : holly . sutton ? luke : yeah . frank let her and ethan and dillon and lulu go 'cause he had what he wanted -- lucky : wait . lulu 's here , too ? lulu : where else would i be ? my big brother was in trouble . lucky : you just had to get in on the action , did n't you ? lulu : always . lucky : get over here . lulu : [ whispers ] hi . lucky : [ whispers ] hi . [ scene_break ] nina : you should see this woman . she 's horrible . she 's horrible . and at first , i thought it was just a sham , you know , that franco was trying to make me jealous , but ... [ sighs ] i saw them at the metro court last night , and they were all tongues and hands and boobs . silas : you know , franco 's whole life has been a big show . nina : yeah , well , they can take their show on the road to their outer borough . i 'm not interested in a ticket . silas : outer borough ? nina : yeah . [ chuckles ] queens . she 's from queens . i mean ... [ chuckles ] please . denise demuccio . [ scene_break ] ava : i had three options -- never come back to port charles , abandoning my family for good ... be sent back to pentonville the moment i showed my face ... franco : okay , so , what would option three be ? ava : you 're looking at it . creating a new me was the only way i could come back to port charles under the radar . franco : oh , 'cause this is under the radar . ava : eh . denise has everybody fooled so far . franco : not in the beginning , from what i heard . ava : well , then there was that dna test . franco : the dna test . right . how 'd you do that ? tough to tamper with results from inside a jail cell , right ? ava : the lab did n't test the dna i was born with . it tested my new dna . franco : oh , your new dna ? [ chuckles ] of course ! that makes sense . ava : it 's a long story . franco : [ sighs ] ava : all you need to know is that silas gave me a bone - marrow transplant back in april . franco : bone marrow ? great . and that somehow altered your dna to match the new donor . ava : because the donor and i are related by blood , it backs up my story -- ava 's twin , but not ava exactly . it 's -- it 's really perfect how it 's all worked out . franco : `` perfect `` is not a word i would use to describe any of this . so , the donor -- kiki . has to be kiki , right ? does she know that you 're alive ? ava : no . it was avery . franco : how 'd you get bone marrow from avery ? oh , my god . nina did n't kidnap that baby . it was silas . [ scene_break ] sam : i 'm surprised you took the night off . i thought you were working around the clock to help michael reclaim elq . jake : eh , well , even the most committed person should take time off to watch fireworks . besides -- oh , here you go , buddy . [ grunts ] we 're a team . i do n't wan na go after nikolas without you . sam : okay , so you 're sticking to your decision not to tell elizabeth ? jake : well , i ca n't . nikolas would probably use their relationship to manipulate her . sam : i agree , and i think the less she knows , the less she can tell . however , i think the same rule should apply to patrick . jake : you 're not gon na tell him . sam : [ sighs ] i do n't know . i mean , he told elizabeth that i was investigating elq when he was n't supposed to , and i do n't blame him because they 're really good friends , and i know he trusts her , but i think that ... this whole thing would be a domino effect . jake : yeah , patrick would tell elizabeth , elizabeth would tell nikolas , and we ca n't have that because he would shore up his defenses . sam : okay . so you and i will be the only ones to know that we 're working together . i do n't like this because i do n't like keeping anything from patrick . jake : yeah , well , we 're in the same boat . i do n't like keeping secrets from elizabeth , either . i know she would n't keep one from me . [ scene_break ] patrick : you okay ? elizabeth : yeah , why ? patrick : well , it just looks like you 're thinking about something . elizabeth : [ sighs heavily ] it 's just lucky . patrick : lucky ? is he back in town ? elizabeth : no . [ sighs ] no , and he 's not keeping in touch . and he 's missed several of his scheduled skype calls with aiden . i 've tried calling , e - mailing , but nothing . patrick : does lulu know anything ? elizabeth : i talked to her a few days ago . she did n't have a clue . said she would look into it when she got back from her visit with lesley , but ... patrick : hmm . elizabeth : i do n't know . i 'm just worried . patrick : yeah , i do n't blame you . but , i mean , lucky always travels to exotic places , going on adventures . i 'm sure he 'll check in . elizabeth : i hope so . i 'm running out of excuses to give aiden . patrick : yeah . elizabeth : i just wish i knew where lucky was . ca n't imagine what would keep him from calling his son . patrick : mmm . [ scene_break ] lucky : well , there 's never a dull moment in this family . laura : oh , yeah . you can say that again , huh ? luke : who ? us ? [ laughter ] [ scene_break ] valerie : okay , emotions are high , and you 're obviously angry . dante : [ sniffs ] you think ? [ cap clatters ] valerie : but you need to watch what you say about lulu , especially ... dante : she 's a liar and a cheater , valerie . valerie : she 's also rocco 's mother . dante : yeah . valerie : it 's important that you keep your head for his sake . dante : i know . and i will . i will . [ sniffs ] what 's crazy is that i still love her just as much now as i did before , but ... i do n't know how you can love someone and hate them at the same time . does n't make any sense to me . valerie : you do n't mean that . dante : yeah , i do . me and lulu , we worked ... we 've worked really , really hard to build something really good together . and it was not easy . valerie : yeah , well , love hardly ever is . dante : i 'm talking about real hurdles , valerie . we came from two different places , me and her . [ sniffs ] and , uh ... [ chuckles ] i mean , one time , she forgot -- forgot who she was , lost her memory completely , could n't remember who i was ... [ sniffs ] ended up going and staying with magic milo of all people . [ scoffs ] but we got through that . we worked so hard . we went through hell to build a family , and we did , but we en -- we endured things . you know what i mean ? we endured things that couples around us ... [ bottle thuds ] dante : they were being split up over -- over way less . it happened right in front of our eyes . [ sighs ] but we did it , you know , and we had rocco ... [ sniffs ] and we had each other , and we had this life that -- that was in a really nice place . we had a nice groove going on . and then she just went and smashed it all to hell , and i do n't know if those pieces can be put back together , you know ? valerie : so then what ? are you not even gon na try to save your -- dante : why would i try when no one else is trying ? ! i 'm sorry . valerie : [ whispers ] it 's okay . dante : it 's not okay . valerie : i just want to help , but i do n't know how . dante : you 've done enough . y - you 've done more than enough . you should go . you should get out of here . go home , okay ? valerie : you 'll be all right ? dante : of course , i 'll be okay . do n't worry about me . [ chuckles ] valerie : if you need anything ... dante : well , i know who to call . [ chuckles ] thank you . i mean that . thank you . i do n't know ... i do n't know what i 'd be doing without you here right now . valerie : you wo n't have to find out . [ kiss ] [ scene_break ] lulu : sorry , dillon . we 're just over here wallowing . dillon : wallow away . far be it from me to intrude on a spencer family reunion . laura : [ chuckles ] lucky : any word on ethan ? lulu : not since he left with holly . we should get to the hospital in case he needs us . luke : ethan did n't know that this was a frank smith operation . did you ? [ scene_break ] silas : did you say denise demuccio ? nina : yes , i did . [ sighs ] do you know her ? uh ... oh , wait . what am i thinking ? of course , you know her . she 's kiki 's aunt . poor kiki . she really drew the short straw when it came to having ava as a mother . now she has to deal with this hot mess of an aunt . silas : and you 're saying that she and franco are , uh ... nina : are together , yes . they left a whole slime trail at the metro court . what 's wrong ? why are you upset ? silas : i 'm not upset . nina : yes , you are 'cause you did that thing with your mouth . silas : i 'm not -- nina : you do that when you 're upset . silas : i 'm not upset . nina : what 's the problem ? silas : it 's not a problem . i just ... i never ... never imagined the two of them being a thing . nina : well , franco and ava used to date , right ? and denise is practically her identical twin , and ... i do n't know . maybe the exes would come sniffing around . oh , no , please . silas : what ? nina : no . are you into her ? silas : who ? nina : you . silas : me ? you know , i 'm gon na try not to take offense that you even asked . nina : the spitting image of ava , the mother of your child ? does that have no effect upon you ? silas : oh , it has an effect ... just not the one you think . [ scene_break ] franco : so , silas takes takes the baby from the hospital nursery , sucks its bone marrow dry and then puts the baby back , and the whole time he 's pinning the whole thing on nina ? ava : oh , he did n't know that nina would become a suspect . franco : he knew that nina had taken that baby at least once before . ava : with a little help , i might add . franco : everyone knew . [ sighs ] that 's unbelievable . no wonder she 's out of shadybrook five minutes and she 's already the town pariah . it 's because of silas . ava : you need to take it easy , okay ? franco : i need to tell her . ava : you ca n't . franco : why not ? ava : because nina loathes me . the moment she finds out i 'm alive , she 'll -- she will stop at nothing to be sure that i 'm sent back to pentonville . franco : but that 's your problem . my problem is getting nina away from her money - grubbing husband , and the best way to do that is to tell her truth about the kidnapping . ava : how is that the best way ? nina already knows she 's innocent . you 're the one that did n't believe her . you had your chance to stand by your woman , and you failed . telling nina the truth now wo n't get her back . but i can . [ scene_break ] sam : what did you think of the fireworks ? jake : i loved them . yeah , they were great . park gets a little crowded , though . sam : yeah . jake : [ clears throat ] is there a better place to watch 'em ? sam : yeah , there is , actually . there 's a , um , a footbridge out by blackstone canyon . jake : something bad happen there ? sam : why do you ask ? jake : i do n't know . you just , uh , kind of got a little sad all of a sudden . sam : oh , i did . i 'm sorry . um ... it was just a place that was really special to jason . he , as well , did not like crowds ... jake : [ chuckles ] sam : and he would like to go off by himself a lot . i just remember there was one fourth of july that he took me up there on his motorcycle , and we just -- we sat there watching the sky , and it was like we were the only two people in the world and the fireworks were just for us . jake : hmm . sam : [ sighs ] jake : you do n't go back there anymore ? sam : [ breathes deeply ] oh , no . no , no , no , no . i have that memory in my head , and , for me , it 's perfect , and i can not imagine going out there with anyone but him . jake : got it . you know , i do n't know what 's worse -- not remembering somebody that you love or ... remembering them and knowing that they 're gone . sam : well , put it that way , i mean , if someone told me they could take away my grief , but i would have to get rid of my memories of jason , no way . not in a million years would i let that happen . jake : yeah , that makes sense . sam : [ chuckles ] i know . jake : oh , hey . elizabeth : hey , hey ! jake : whoa , whoa , whoa ! looks like you guys are missing a few people , about this big ... cam and emma ? elizabeth : mac and felicia offered to throw them a slumber party . sam : oh , score ! patrick : yeah , we were n't arguing , the kids were n't arguing ... nice . and it was perfect . sam : huh . elizabeth : are you , uh , ready to go ? this one 's a little wound up . jake : oh , yeah ? well , me , too . let 's go . let 's get out of here , okay ? patrick : get your truck . get your truck . jake : all right . [ clears throat ] elizabeth : say goodbye , aiden . jake : hey , buddy . oh , i have to -- i 'm gon na see you later . patrick : say goodbye to jake . sam : thank you . elizabeth : you 're welcome . aiden : bye . patrick : bye , guys . good to see you again . sam : high fives all around . good to see you , too . jake : high five . good to see you . aiden : where are we going ? sam : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] [ both breathing heavily ] valerie : we should n't do this . dante : i know , but i do n't care . [ scene_break ] lulu : why do n't you guys stay here to deal with the authorities while dillon and i go to the hospital ? and i 'll call you with an update on ethan . dillon : lulu , watch out ! laura : aah ! frank : die , spencer ! [ frank 's gun clatters to the floor after luke fills him with bullets ] luke : we all in one piece ? lulu : are you ? luke : never better . after all that , you still lost , frank . frank : i had to try . luke : this time you 're gon na stay dead . i 'm gon na make sure of it . last words ? frank : lucky . luke : yeah , i am lucky . you ? not so much . frank : your son . luke : what about him ? frank : lucky . he was in on it . chew on that . luke : chew on this . [ gunshot ] [ scene_break ] franco : i 'll bite . how is it that you 're gon na help me win back nina ? ava : for starters , we expand on an idea that you already had . i 'll play your loving girlfriend -- tear up the town , hand in hand ... lips on lips . for nina 's benefit , of course . franco : of course . ava : and she has a very well - documented jealous streak , has n't she ? and so it wo n't be long at all before she 'll be coming after me with some meat cleaver . franco : right . and for little old me , you 're willing to put yourself in the line of cleavage ? ava : mm . franco : [ chuckles ] ava : i 'll do whatever it takes to get you nina back , as long as you promise to keep my secret about avery 's kidnapping . franco : yeah , right , and align myself with silas . ava : yeah , you owe me . it 's because of you that i was shot , thrown off a bridge , and nearly drowned . do n't abandon me again . franco : little unfair to put all of that on me , do n't you think ? ava : we can help each other , and that help starts with you staying silent . franco : and lying ... which , ordinarily , is my favorite thing to do , but ... i 'm not so comfortable with this . it 's kiki . ava : okay , but please , do n't tell me that you 're gon na grow a conscience now . this is a very simple transaction . you keep my secret , i help you win back nina . so , do we have a deal or not ? [ scene_break ] nina : what 's , um , on the agenda for the rest of the evening ? silas : [ chuckles ] not much . heading home . nina : me , too . silas : can i , um , can i walk you ? nina : oh , sure .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : well , i 'll let her tell you her side , but i think i 've been concentrating on emily so i would n't have to think about how bad my family 's financial crisis is . lucky : so you 're marrying lydia for money ? well , hey , while you 're at it , why do n't you just sell your soul , too ? nikolas : i do n't have a choice . lucky : nikolas , i know you . if you marry lydia , you will honor your vows . she wo n't feel the same obligation . she 's a little brat who will make your life miserable . she 'll sleep around , probably on your wedding night . nikolas : when did you become such an expert on lydia ? lucky : come on , lydia is n't hard to figure out . lydia does n't give a damn about you . do n't you want to have a wife who 's going to love you and respect you ? nikolas : it does n't matter what i want . lucky , i have to think about the future of my family . lucky : what future ? what about your future ? you got a right to something better than an arranged marriage to a girl you do n't even love . nikolas : i 've already agreed . i ca n't change it . i 'm engaged to lydia .

[ chuckles ] delia : so , you 're saying you ca n't sniff it out ? ava : no , i ca n't . but you can . lulu : are you sure that dante 's okay ? olivia : yes , honey , fine . he texted me a little while ago , and he told me that everything is under control . lulu : well , did he give you any details about the case , or ... ? olivia : well , i - i got the idea that it was a little too complicated to send back and forth through texts , so -- i - i promise you , honey . he 's not in any danger . lulu : i do n't mean to sound paranoid or anything , but you seem upset -- like there 's something that you 're not telling me . olivia : [ sighs ] yeah , i guess i am upset , but it 's got nothing to do with dante . [ inhales deeply ] i -- a year ago , on fourth of july , sonny and i kissed . but it was more than that . you know , it was -- it was the start of us getting together . you know , and -- and i opened my heart to him for the first time since we were teenagers , and all those feelings that i kept locked up -- i let that all out . and -- and now , a year later , you know , sonny and i are through . he 's living with ava jerome . delia : oh , no . i 'm not so sure about that . ava : a spare key to sonny 's office . turns out searching his room did reap a treasure -- if not the one i 'd hoped for . delia : okay , let me get this straight . you want me to break into a mobster 's office and then -- ava : well , who 's breaking in ? you have a key . delia : it 's stolen key , and if i get caught , i 'm gon na be sleeping with the whales . ava : fishes . delia : well , either way , i 'm gon na pass . ava : mother , please . stop being so dramatic . you 're acting like it 's inevitable that you 'll be caught . delia : this guy is not stupid . the second i leave here , he 's gon na have his goons tailing me . ava : that is not necessarily true . delia : no , he knows i 'm gon na be doing your dirty work , and guess what -- he 's right . ava : fine . delia : `` fine `` ? ava : fine . you win . as long as sonny thinks you 're loyal to me , he 'll still be suspicious . delia : [ inhales deeply ] oh , good . we can move on to plan `` b. `` ava : yeah . i just have to figure out what that might be . delia : how dare you ? ! alexis : i 'm afraid you 're gon na have to start at the beginning . patrick : you know that sam 's looking into the accident . alexis : yes . patrick : well , we figured out that it was silas ' car that ran us off the road , but he was n't driving . alexis : rafe was ? patrick : and when we went to confront him , he took off . tj : like , on foot ? patrick : no . in his uncle 's car . alexis : and this all just happened tonight ? patrick : sam and dante were on rafe 's trail , and they 're following him now . tj : maybe that 's why molly has n't called back . dr. clay probably told her what rafe did . [ sighs ] alexis : patrick , what ? patrick : molly 's not with silas . tj : then where is she ? patrick : she 's in the car with rafe . chest sounds are normal . pupils are equal and reactive . he 's bleeding from a laceration to the back of the head . let 's go . you ready ? right behind you . dante : hey , you ride in the back with molly . i 'll meet you there . sam : okay , i can do that . dante : you all right ? sam : just tell me they 're gon na be okay . dante : i 'll meet you at the hospital . sam : come on , mom .

[ both snicker ] [ scene_break ] sam : there is a part of this that i really ca n't explain to patrick . jake : why not ? sam : because it has to do with jason . jason and michael were really close . jake : yes , i know . michael told me that jason , at one point , helped him -- you know , took care of him when he was a baby . sam : no , it goes way beyond that . jason would 've walked through fire for michael . if he were still alive -- jake : then nikolas would have never taken over elq in the first place . am i right ? sam : probably not , yes . that 's exactly what i was thinking . no . and if he had , jason would 've found a way to get it back to michael by any means necessary . jake : so you 're not just doing this for michael . you 're doing it for jason also . sam : and that is the part that patrick would have a problem with . jake : oh , yeah . he would n't want to be told day in , day out just , uh , how great jason was and how much you owe him . yeah , i - i can relate . i get it . sam : does elizabeth do that to you ? jake : yes , she does . sometimes she does . sam : she does . mm - hmm . well , i bet you [ laughing ] carly probably does it a little bit more , though , huh ? jake : oh , it 's different with carly . i mean , with carly , yeah , she loved the guy . that 's clear . but she -- with carly , she tells you how much and how great jason was for her , not how he was just so great in general . sam : actually , no , jason was really great for carly . he was kind of like a built - in safety net . whatever disaster -- and , trust me , there were plenty of disasters carly got herself into -- someone was there to pick up the pieces all the time . it 's crazy . jake : and you were okay with that ? sam : i mean ... [ sighs ] they were best friends before i ever came along , so i really did n't get a choice . but to be honest with you , carly gets under my skin . she always has . jake : and i bet you 're gon na think it 's gon na get under patrick 's skin to know that you 're going after nikolas , at least in some part , because of your love for jason . [ clears throat ] sam : it 's just i really do n't want to tell him until it 's over . that 's all . jake : and i bet you would like to get it over with as soon as possible , right ? sam : assuming there is something that we could blackmail nikolas with , yes . but as far as i know , his hands are clean . jake : no , they 're not clean . he 's hiding something . sam : you sure about that ? why ? jake : [ inhales deeply ] call it a hunch . i 'm sure you 've had one of those . sam : [ laughs ] uh , yeah , i have . i do n't know -- i trusted you when i had every reason not to . that was ... jake : okay , then . so tell me , what are the next steps ? you are the seasoned pi here . how do we go about digging up dirt on nikolas ?

[ scene_break ] tracy : i was so grateful for your help the other day . sabrina : well , i 'm your friend . that 's what we do . tracy : but the tears are gone , and now i need to exorcise the ghost of luke spencer . and the only way i 'm gon na do that is if i put my focus on something else i care about . sabrina : see ? that sounds like a plan . tracy : i 'm gon na get elq back for my family . nikolas cassadine has no idea who he 's messed with . sabrina : good for you . but where are you going ? tracy : los angeles . my granddaughter and her band are performing there , and i 'm gon na get brook lynn to tell me what nikolas is holding over her head . sabrina : okay . well , suppose she tells you everything . well , then what ? tracy : hopefully she 's not gon na mind everybody knowing her secret . because if the board finds out that nikolas got his shares illegally , he will be out on his ass . [ scene_break ] dillon : my mom is gon na be so relieved when she learns luke did n't really break the engagement . lulu : well , technically , he did . dillon : well , now 's not the time for technicalities . lulu : tracy might disagree . i just hope she can understand why my dad made the choice that he did . dillon : my mom will listen when i tell her what happened . i have no problem vouching for luke . it has to help , right ? lulu : right . dillon : i wonder if he 's tried to contact my mom since , you know , the big shootout . lulu : that 's a good question .

[ scene_break ] patrick : no , no , no , no , no , no . this is not a conversation about me and sam and putting rings on fingers , okay ? we 're not going there . brad : i think it 's a very fair question . patrick : oh , really ? brad : yeah . you and sam started seeing each other , oh ... [ gasps ] right around the same time lucas and i got back together . lucas : huh . you 're right . he 's right . brad : and you lovebirds moved in together not long after we did , so if you think i 'm dragging my feet , well [ scoffs ] it just stands to reason that you must already have one hell of a proposal in mind for the lovely samantha . patrick : [ clears throat ] brad : huh . lucas : you know , my fiancé makes a very , very good point . when are you planning to make an honest woman out of my sister ? patrick : the point is taken . now can we please get back to work and talk about mrs. mcalister so this one can go home ? brad : yeah . i got to get back to the lab . see you when i get home . lucas : yeah , yeah , yeah . you know we were just kidding , right ? patrick : yeah , yeah , yeah . i know . lucas : okay . but , you know , when you have a wedding on the brain , sometimes it just seems to supersede everything else . patrick : believe me , i get it . and i guess it 's a fair question . in some ways , i think you two guys have it easier than us . lucas : well , i do n't know about that . patrick : well , yeah , that 's true . but i will say that we have a lot of baggage . i mean , i was just divorced within this last year , and in some ways , i do n't know , sam 's still grieving jason . [ scene_break ] jake : nikolas knows that i 'm coming after him . sam : mm - hmm . jake : he does n't know that you are . let 's keep it that way . sam : you know what ? maybe we 're being too passive . maybe we have to go on the offensive . jake : i like the sound of going on the offensive . sam : great . how do you feel about breaking into wyndemere ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : call me when you can , mom . elizabeth and i are getting a little worried . okay . elizabeth : thank you for doing that . nikolas : you 're welcome . i just hope i hear from her soon . look , everything will be okay . elizabeth : yeah , i - i know . a - and you 're probably right . i 'm probably just projecting . nikolas : how so ? elizabeth : ah . jason and i ran into sam and patrick at the fireworks , and little danny ran right into jason 's arms . nikolas : i 'm sure that , uh -- that was difficult . elizabeth : i 'm keeping that boy from his father . so what gives me the right to worry about my own sons ' relationship with their father ?

[ scoffs ] and besides , i would n't trust julian jerome . anybody that sabotages their own magazine is definitely gon na sabotage their photo shoot . nina : i have julian where i need him . [ crunching ] curtis : why is that ? nina : um , are you following the news ? you know that julian 's wife , alexis , has been arrested for carlos rivera 's murder ? curtis : yeah . i 've heard . nina : well , i mean , everybody was surprised . they thought that julian was the prime suspect . curtis : obviously the police thought otherwise . nina : why do you think they 'd think that ? curtis : well , i mean , it could be contradictory evidence or an iron - clad alibi . nina : oh , it 's not so iron - clad . curtis : you 're julian jerome 's alibi . nina : mm - hmm . he was with me the night carlos was stabbed . now , i was a little unclear about the timeline , seeing as i was going through my own , you know , personal stuff at the time . curtis : and did you make that clear to the cops ? nina : yes , i did , absolutely . and i guess it was enough to give julian an alibi , and ... he 's very grateful . but if he gives me any trouble , i could be a little more accurate about the time . curtis : okay , nina , i believe i told you i used to be with the dea , and before that , i was a cop . if you talk to the cops , tell the truth . do n't lie , okay ? if they ask you something , and for some reason you do n't want to answer it , lawyer up . do not -- please do not get on the bad side of the law , especially for the likes of julian jerome . nina : okay , i did n't lie . i never lied . i did n't lie . and i would n't lie or obstruct justice for anyone , including julian , but if i have the impulse to , i 'll remember what you told me . and thank you for the warning . curtis : my pleasure , nina .

[ scene_break ] aaron : so , i have a confession to make . when i was first introduced to your father , the only thing i knew about him was that he imported coffee and that he owned a classic restaurant . but after that , i wanted to know more about you , which led to me knowing more about him , so i , um -- i did some research . kristina : so you know there are a lot of allegations about my father ... like , a lot . aaron : right , yeah . but he was only convicted once , and he was pardoned by the governor . kristina : mm , that does n't mean he 's innocent , but ... aaron : are you trying to scare me away ? kristina : just the opposite . i like you a lot . and every time i see you is better than the last . i just -- i want to set the record straight . a lot of the stories about my father are n't true , but the ones that are have nothing to do with me . i mean , he 's very scrupulous about that . he keeps his business separate from his family . aaron : well , that 's good to know , but i 'm actually more interested in you . did you mean what you said ... about liking me ? kristina : what do you think ? aaron : [ chuckles ] i do n't know . um ... i mean , i know that we have a lot of fun every time we 're together . but -- i do n't know -- i just get this feeling that you 're -- [ sighs ] i do n't know -- uneasy about something . kristina : yeah , well , i mean , i 've [ sighs ] done a lot of stupid things in my life , and i would like to avoid doing any more . sometimes when i 'm with you , i check myself ... like , `` is this really happening ? could this cute , funny , sexy guy who can cook really be into me ? `` [ kiss ] aaron : does that answer your question ? kristina : i think so . i have another question . aaron : [ inhales sharply ] you can ask me anything . kristina : will you take me back to your place ? i 'd really like to see your bedroom .

[ laughs ] i , uh , pretended to be pregnant with his child ... because i was so desperate to win him . so , tonight , that one moment when claudette dropped her fun and friendly act , when she said that you 've made mistakes , too , i recognized that desperate tone immediately . nathan : she was hinting obviously at me shooting her lover to remind me that i 'm not so perfect myself . maxie : she 's threatening you . she 's threatening us . so i had to back off . if i told nina to fire claudette tomorrow , your ex - wife would run straight to the police and tell them everything . and i know you said that her lover disappeared , but what if she found him ? even if he did n't go to jail , you would lose your badge . nathan : you 're right . even after all this time , she still has the ability to blow up my life . maxie : so we do n't give her that power . we act first .

[ chuckles ] look , i mean , the last time you , and i talked about this , you told me that parker made it clear that you guys did n't have a future , and ... i 'm guessing now that that meant that this parker dude was over you , but you 're not over him . kristina : it 's honestly not that complicated . i was asleep . i had no idea what i was talking about . aaron : you know , kristina , i -- usually i would just kind of let something like this slide , but i like you a lot . i like you a lot , and i just get the sense that there 's more to this parker thing that you just do n't want to tell me about . but if you and i are gon na keep doing this , i need to know . so ... am i right ? [ scene_break ] officer : police ! freeze ! jordan : alexis ! go check it out . julian must have figured out what alexis was doing at some point 'cause that engine failure was not an accident . paul : julian definitely caught on to what we were doing . jordan : oh , no .

[ sighs ] why ? i mean , as soon as you -- as soon as you went into round two of trying to get me to confess , i knew you must have been wearing a wire . alexis : [ whimpers ] julian : so i went into the kitchen to make you that tea ... and i made a phone call . it did n't take very long for my people to find that surveillance van . and by the way ... they disabled it so we could get away and nobody could follow us . is that clear ? alexis : if you -- if you hurt me , it 'll just make it worse for you . julian : [ laughs ] how could it possibly get worse , alexis ? you 've already destroyed what we had . alexis : [ whimpers ] julian : i mean , i would have -- i would have saved you from that prison because i loved you . i mean , i managed -- [ sighs ] i managed to pull the only piece of physical evidence that they had against you from the pd . i did that for you , because you were my wife , and what did you do for your husband ? you wore a wire , and you got me to confess ... alexis : [ crying ] julian : ... when all i ever did for you was try to change , alexis . i mean , i -- i gave you my heart ... my life . i -- i gave you all my love . alexis : if -- if you ... love me ... ... if you 've ever loved me , please , please , please do n't do this . julian : no , no , no , no . alexis ... alexis , i loved you , and you betrayed me , so now you 're gon na die ... by the same knife that helena used to kill your mother . [ chuckling ] i mean , is n't -- it 's so morbid , is n't it ? i told you it was morbid . alexis : [ whimpering ] julian : i told you to get rid of the knife the day you brought it home , and what did you do ? you did n't listen to me , did you ? no , because you know better . you always know better , alexis , and that 's why -- that 's why you trusted the cops over your husband . alexis : [ exhales sharply ] julian : so now you 're gon na die because -- because you just could n't love me enough . alexis : no .

[ scene_break ] [ indistinct conversations ] [ soft pop music playing ] curtis : that 's , um ... that seems like a pretty reasonable offer . nina : you 're also gon na get an expense account . curtis : it 's very generous . nina : yeah . i think taking good care of my employees in this very uncertain job market instills loyalty , and then people do their very best . curtis : well , i hope my work as a pi gave you a good sense of my work ethic . nina : absolutely . curtis : so , tell me about this job and what exactly you 're hiring me to do . nina : well , why do n't you come to my office first thing in the morning , and everything will be revealed . [ scene_break ] aaron : i 'm not gon na judge you , okay ? i just -- i need you to be honest with me . kristina : i ca n't believe how straightforward you are . aaron : yeah , well , you know , that 's me . i do n't really like to play games . kristina : i 'm just [ clears throat ] not used to that . every relationship that i 've been in has always been so messy and complicated , including parker . aaron : so i 'm -- i 'm right ? there is more to the whole parker situation ? kristina : yeah .

[ scene_break ] emily : at least you 've toned it down a notch . nikolas : are you taking that as a good sign ? that my memory will somehow magically be restored and i 'll feel all warm and fuzzy toward you ? emily : i 'm assuming it has n't . you never used to be cutting and sarcastic with me . nikolas : oh , good . good . another scrap of information about nikolas cassadine that i did n't know . i 'm going to go ahead and file that away with all the other little fascinating little nuggets that i happen to learn at the library or find out from other people , and you know what ? who knows ? maybe i 'll be able to cobble together enough pieces to form a man that i recognize . but i got to tell you something , from what i know so far , i 'm not really that impressed . nikolas cassadine to me seems to be nothing more than a rich -- a useless dilettante descended from a long line of psychotic murderers . emily : no , you 're wrong . nikolas is a wonderful person . he 's kind and generous and forgiving . nikolas : yeah , well , i 'm sorry , but i do n't feel a connection to your cute little paragon that you 're describing , emily . i do n't feel kind . i do n't feel generous , and i do n't feel wonderful , and i certainly do n't feel like forgiving all the people who lied to me ! emily : i waited here all night for a chance to explain . can you give me that much ? nikolas : explain all you want . it wo n't change anything . emily : my older brother jason was brain - damaged in a car wreck , and he was left with no memory , no context for emotion . he changed overnight from a loving , responsible premed student to a dark , angry nightmare . he turned his back on everyone who loved him most , and i did n't want that to happen to you . nikolas : so you chose to leave me in ignorance and lie to my face ? emily : i was praying that you would remember in your own time . i did n't want to force you into a life that you were n't prepared for . nikolas : in other words , you decided to play god -- to choose how i should live my life , what i was and was n't capable of . emily : do you think that this has been easy for me ? i mean , it nearly killed me seeing you with mary , knowing that you felt obligated to a woman who was keeping you prisoner in a lie ! nikolas : you -- you helped her ! emily : i was trying to help you , to protect you , to give you time to remember on your own . nikolas : what did you imagine would happen , emily ? what , that i 'd wake up one morning and realize i was kind , generous , forgiving nikolas cassadine who loved you with all my heart ? emily : yes , that is exactly what i imagined . i dreamed of it . i still do . nikolas : well , look at me ! it has n't happened ! and i do n't feel anything for you . i want you to go . i want you to go right now . emily : listen to me -- nikolas : i want you to go right now . emily : listen to me . listen to me . be as angry -- be as angry with me as you want . just do n't give up trying to remember . nikolas : do n't tell me what to do , ok ? you have no right telling me what to do . i want you to go right now . just go . oh , god . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : i ca n't pay for a musical career for sage . i could pay for her to record a c.d . , pay for a video to be shot and released , but in the end , sage is going to rise or fall on her own merits . lois : right . so why not entrust her career to someone that has her best interests at heart ? really , you 're not going to do your niece any favors by surrounding her with a bunch of yes people because there 's no way they 're going to challenge her to be the very best she can be . no , because they 're going to be too busy tripping over themselves trying to anticipate her next bratty , spoiled whim . i 've seen it . i know whereof i speak , and that is why i 'm saying i think sage needs to be with a label of integrity . lorenzo : and that would be l & b ? lois : no doubt . lorenzo : yeah . lois : plus , she 'd get me as an added bonus . really . she gets the benefit of my expertise , my persistence , my intelligence , and my fabulous ear for music . tempted yet ? or do i need to stand on my head ? lorenzo : now , that 's tempting . i 'll tell you what -- i 'll give the matter some thought . but in the meantime , it has been a pleasure negotiating with you . lois : likewise , i 'm sure . by the way , you 're not so bad at this , either . lorenzo : well , coming from you , i will take that as high praise . lois : yeah . lorenzo : mr. ashton . ned : what the hell 's that about ? [ scene_break ] courtney : not to be -- ahem -- critical or unappreciative -- jax : oh , i love it when sentences start that way . courtney : well , maybe we should think about hiking out soon because , if we do n't , we are going to be a couple of very hungry campers tonight . jax : are you disparaging my fish ? courtney : i 'm only pointing out the obvious , jax . i mean , come on , it 's tiny . jax : well , i mean , you -- you know , you organized this . i thought you 'd be taking care of the details . courtney : oh , so , what , you want me to fish ? jax : no . i want you to admit that you ca n't . once you do that , then i will go out and catch us a feast . courtney : oh , i see . ok , so what , i 'm just supposed to look on in womanly awe while my he - man catches our next big meal and then brings it back for me to cook ? while you do what , exactly , hmm ? what , you sit back and bask in the glory of your manliness ? so , will i be expected to give you a back rub later , too ? jax : well , i would n't turn that down . courtney : mm - hmm . yeah , let 's just stick to your original assumption . i will catch the fish , and you will cook it . jax : it might not be as easy as you think . courtney : jax , you put bait on a hook and you throw it into the water . it is n't brain surgery . jax : ok , you just -- you know , be careful . the banks are a little slippery this time of the year , and the river 's high , and it 's snowmelt , so it 's pretty cold . courtney : i know how to handle myself . [ scene_break ] jason : the night i asked you to lie and say that the baby was mine -- i promised that i would protect you and your child , and that 's what i 'm going to do , no matter what it costs me . sam : no , this is n't fair , jason ! you had no idea what you were signing up for . you did n't know what i was hiding . jason : did you mean to kill your mother ? sam : absolutely not . jason : you swear it was an accident ? sam : on my baby 's life . jason : i believe you and that 's that .

[ scene_break ] alexis : for once , i 'm happy to run into you . i was on my way looking for you . ric : well , then allow me to save myself the misery of enduring another one of your harangues . i 'm a loathsome , repugnant attorney who misuses the power of my office to pursue some sort of bizarre courtship -- alexis : forget about our courtship . we do n't have a courtship . and this is important . i want you to find some way to put lorenzo alcazar into custody as soon as possible . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : i knew a little bit about nikolas cassadine . father and uncle dead , both murderers . mother clinically insane . family fortunes dwindling . my own family is n't quite as gothic , but they 've been a burden to me at times . when i saw you in that church and realized that you did n't remember any of that , i envied you . and i meant to leave you in peace until it occurred that you might be helpful to me . nikolas : how 's that ? lorenzo : the woman that i love , carly corinthos , is tied to jason morgan , who 's tied to emily , who 's tied to you . i thought i might be able to use that connection to my advantage . in the meantime , you made an excellent employee -- fearless , efficient . and then i came to sympathize with mary . people do desperate , misguided things in the name of love . [ scene_break ] emily : i kept telling nikolas how much i love him , how he did n't realize it , but he loved me , too . i told him i was only trying to protect him , and of course that made him even more furious . he not only thinks i 'm a liar , he resents me for treating him as if he were incompetent . jason : what do you want me to do ? emily : nothing . look , i should n't have bothered you . i know your focus is on sam right now . jason : sam is safe for the moment . i always have time for you . just tell me what you need . emily : maybe if you talked to him , not to plead my case or anything -- i mean , that 's a lost cause right now -- but i 'm sure he feels alone , and i think it would help him to have a friend to talk to -- you know , especially someone who understands what he 's going through . jason : yeah , i 'll try . but , you know , it 's not the same thing . my memory 's completely destroyed , and nikolas is actually going to remember . emily : i know . no , i realize that , but i do n't want the real nikolas , my nikolas , to wake up that morning and realize that he 's ruined his life in the meantime . [ scene_break ] georgie : it was so great to see lucas again . i mean , he looks great , does n't he ? i mean , he told me -- well , he wrote me that he was working out for soccer , but i did n't think he -- dillon : he 's writing you ? georgie : yeah , we e - mail a couple times a week . dillon : about what ? georgie : everything . nothing . dillon : uh - huh . and , um -- are we in the everything category , or is that nothing ? georgie : dillon , of course lucas knows that we 're dating . i mean , i really kept him informed when you were temporarily with sage . dillon : i was never with sage , georgie . georgie : dillon , dillon -- look , the thing is about lucas , no matter what kind of mood i 'm in , he always makes me feel better . ok , like today , for instance . it 's -- i was really stressed out about what brook lynn told you , but then he walked through the door and it did n't seem like such a big deal anymore . i mean , i know that 's a little weird , right ? dillon : weird ? no , no . that 's not weird at all . in fact , that makes perfect sense because when i came here a year ago , you had a raging crush on the guy , and evidently you have n't dropped that . georgie : what ? dillon : that 's the real reason we have n't made love , is n't it ? because deep down you 're saving yourself for lucas . [ scene_break ] lois : please give it a run through , just to see how it sounds ? ned : ca n't you just give it a rest ? lois : but it might be awful . just because someone can sing , it does n't naturally follow that they can write , too . hey , come on . are n't you dying to hear the music in our daughter 's head ? ned : all right . sage , i 'm going to need your help . sage : sure . ned and sage ( singing ) : something 's changed in the way that you 're not looking at me something 's changed in the way you 're not calling if i bring it up , you say it 's my imagination all i know is what i feel lois : i love what i 'm hearing . i think this could be a hit . sage : if you 're not feeling it anymore just tell me i will ned and sage : cry a few tears sage : and move on oh , baby brook lynn : i do n't believe this . you 're stealing my song ?

[ door slams ] [ scene_break ] sonny : i know what it 's like to be young and desperate and make choices that change your life forever . sometimes those choices backfire , and you end up hating yourself . you can be your own worst enemy and keep doing it , or you can make a different choice and change . claudia : yeah , but that 's all very glib and shrinky , but what if you ca n't change ? what if they 're right , and that 's just who you are ? sonny : that 's a cop - out . you can change . you know , there would have been a time that i would have taken advantage of you tonight , and we would have hated ourselves for it . but my life right now is -- is starting to feel right . i got -- i got too much to lose , and i 've been down that road way too many times . i 'm not doing it again . your father 's a pig . there 's no excuse for the way he treated you and the way he continues to treat you , and you are damaged because of him , but you are not damaged beyond repair . sonny : you 've grown up a strong woman . your father does n't get to define you . you define yourself . claudia : thanks . well , i will be sure and stop by next time i need some psychotherapy . in the meantime , if you change your mind , you know where to find me . [ scene_break ] jason : hey , you okay ? robin : hey . no , i 'm not okay . i am making a mess of this child 's life , and it 's not even born yet . jason : i doubt that 's true . robin : remember when we were together , and you would -- you would just be so clear about stuff that i was trying to figure out , not by preaching at me , but by just listening and pointing out flaws in my logic ? is it possible that you could do that now ? because i am so tired of fighting with everyone . jason : yeah , sure . what -- what are you fighting about ? robin : okay . i love patrick , i really do , but he 's not cut out to be a father . i have tried to assure him that he can see this child whenever he wants to , even if that is n't that often , because there are no expectations , but then i had this small , correctible , medical complication . jason : was it the baby ? the baby okay ? robin : the baby 's fine . but it flipped some switch in patrick , and now all of a sudden , he 's starting to hover , and then he started making plans for us to move in together , which is not what i want at all , and so i overreacted by completely pushing him out of my life , and then he overreacted by suing me for visitation rights with the unborn child . jason : okay , i 'm -- i 'm not exactly sure what you 're saying . i mean , are you saying that you want patrick out of your baby 's life for good ? [ scene_break ] kate : it 's absurd . what is the point of having a private plane if you have to spend half of the night in a holding pattern ? jax : the pilot will have us on the ground when it 's our turn . kate : go , go in there . go , go tell him it 's an emergency . jax : now , that 's not how it works . i do n't think air traffic control is going to care about you wanting to minimize , you know , the damage of your love life . kate : yeah . jax : that 's not how it works , you know . we 're in a queue . we land when it 's our turn , you know . kate : i am just so glad you find this amusing . i do n't -- jax : but that 's the way it is . kate : i do n't , jax . i love sonny . i 've spent half of my life loving sonny , and my fairy tale is finally coming true , and now this happens ? i 'm actually scared that i could lose him over this .

[ scene_break ] maxie : lulu already put logan in the hospital once . she cracked his skull with a pipe wrench , remember ? scott baldwin wanted to charge her for attempted murder then . lulu : but logan woke up , and he explained everything . that 's what throws me . how could he be someone who was so sweet and -- and compassionate and then turn into somebody capable of such mindless rage ? johnny : but baldwin 's not going to understand that either . i agree with what maxie 's saying . technically , logan was unarmed . you have no cuts or bruises . there 's no evidence that logan attacked you . lulu : but the door . maxie : we ca n't prove logan did that . we ca n't even prove he 's the one who attacked me . this whole thing could look like a setup . lulu : what are you saying ? johnny : she 's saying that baldwin could build a case against you for murder .

[ scene_break ] robin : i do n't really want to push patrick out of the baby 's life . i 'm just trying to deal with the hand that i was dealt . some guys are n't cut out to be fathers , and patrick is one of those people , so instead of letting him make some doomed attempt at fatherhood and it blowing up in our faces , i was just trying to head off a disaster . or is my mother right , and i 'm just trying to control the one thing that i can ? jason : it 's just -- being pregnant changed you , right ? robin : absolutely . jason : well -- becoming a father would probably change patrick , too . i mean , i know there 's a bunch of guys out there who have kids who could care less , but from what you 've told me and from what i 've seen , i do n't really think patrick is like that . i do n't think you should take his right away just because you 're afraid or just because you ca n't predict how it 's all going to turn out . [ scene_break ] kate : hi . so you 're probably a little surprised to see me so early . my plans got derailed . jax and i were in the back of a limo , and , well , i lost my ring . my -- my engagement ring , it slipped . okay , i 'm not doing this very well . this is what i 'm trying to say . i love you . sonny : mm - hmm . kate : only you . i mean , i 'm spending a lot of time with jax . he 's my business partner . we have the magazine to launch . but that 's where it ends . there was this little incident tonight , a little awkward -- sonny : okay , stop dancing . i know what happened . somebody took a picture of you doing -- jax .

[ scene_break ] robin : that is not right . i mean , he should n't have to take the fall for the rest of us . patrick : you know , i have to say , he was a good chief of staff . robin : yeah . i mean , even with the whole lisa thing , he handled that pretty fairly , considering there was never any concrete evidence . patrick : well , he could n't fire her , because then she would have sued the hospital . and in all fairness , he actually thought that elizabeth was n't ready to go back in the o.r . i was the one who was pushing her . robin : it 's just so sad . he should n't have to resign . patrick : i think we need a reward . robin : excuse me ? patrick : it 's been a really difficult past couple of months . robin : try suck beyond belief . patrick : my point exactly . so i think we need something to look forward to . robin : is the hot tub coming ? patrick : the hot tub is coming , and i ca n't wait to sit under those stars and soak in that hot tub with you , sipping a little wine , listening to a little sade . robin : you like sade ? patrick : yeah . you do n't ? robin : i mean , i would n't say she 's on my playlist , but -- patrick : oh . um , because i got tickets to her concert . robin : oh . when is it ? patrick : two weeks from next saturday , front row . center . but you know what ? i can find -- we can just give them away . we do n't really need to go . robin : no , i want to go . are you kidding me ? a sade concert with my husband , under the stars , kissing him ? hey . steve : hey . robin : how 'd it go with the board ? steve : so much for my resignation . i have been suspended indefinitely as chief . but i 'll be working as head of the er trauma unit . patrick : well , good . so we do n't lose you . robin : and you 're such a terrific surgeon . i mean , did n't you always say that the paperwork kept you from what you do best ? steve : hey , i got to admit , i 'll be glad to get back in the action . patrick : good . so it 's not all bad . steve : yeah . the board has asked me to recommend an interim replacement . it 's a big responsibility coming on the heels of the lockdown and the malpractice suits . we 're all trying to get our lives back on track . we 're going to need focus and stability , which is why i ca n't think of anyone better to guide this hospital during this time than robin . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . lucky : come in . elizabeth : so , how was the camping trip ? lucky : uh , it was an adventure . no , i mean , it was great . it was just what i needed . just hope the boys had as much fun as i did . elizabeth : i 'm sure they did . where are they ? lucky : oh , they 're down for the count . they were so exhausted , i just figured i 'd let them nap until you got here . elizabeth : that 's fine . i can wait . lucky : yeah . you know , i have such good memories of camping with my dad , and i just -- i thought they were lost to me after everything that happened with jake . but being out there with the two of them just made me realize how real those moments were with my dad . elizabeth : good . i 'm glad . lucky : it 's a tradition that i want to carry on with the both of them . elizabeth : they 're very lucky to have you . lucky : oh , hey . i wanted to let you know that i had a chance to talk to cam about the whole thing -- about , you know , that i 'm aiden 's real father . elizabeth : ok . what 'd he say ? lucky : he was fine . i mean , i do n't know how much he completely understood , but i just tried to make it clear that my love for them is the same . they 're both my sons , and they mean everything to me . elizabeth : ok . lucky : you all right ? something happen ? elizabeth : well , not with this . i 'm glad you got to talk to the boys . lucky , siobhan believes i tried to kill her . siobhan has filed a malpractice suit against me and the hospital . lucky : what ? elizabeth : she wants me held responsible for trying to kill her . she thinks i did it deliberately to get her out of the way . lucky : that 's crazy . elizabeth : i know , but not to her . lucky : ok . i 'm just going to talk to her . elizabeth : i do n't think that 's going to do any good . lucky : this is ridiculous . you know , she 's probably just still recovering , and if she 's angry with anyone , it should be me . i 'm the one who set the fire . elizabeth : lucky , i need you to understand something . when the two of you started seeing each other , you know i was n't thrilled about it , but by the time you got married , i honestly just want you to be happy . lucky : no , i know that . elizabeth : and i did not tell you the truth about aiden as a ploy to get you back . lucky : you do n't have to explain anything , elizabeth . i trust you completely . i do . siobhan just does n't know you well enough to know that you 'd never do something like that intentionally . i just need to talk to her . i promise , i 'm going to make this right . [ scene_break ] robin : i 've never thought of myself as an administrator . but i 'm honored that you suggested me . patrick : you know , i 'm just going to say this . why would you pick robin ? i have more experience . i 've already been chief of staff . robin : hey , you had your chance . patrick : you just said that you never saw yourself as an administrator . i have more experience . steve : that 's not necessarily always a good thing . i mean , no one 's questioning your brilliance in the o.r . you 're the reigning god . but your people skills remain somewhat challenged . patrick : really ? according to who ? robin : whom . i agree . your arrogance does inspire brilliance in the o.r . but in case you have n't noticed , it also makes people want to kill you . patrick : well , you ca n't run a hospital being friends with everyone . robin : i guess we 're about to find out . [ patrick chuckles ] [ scene_break ] sonny : this defeats the purpose of us driving over here in separate cars . this seems weird . what do you want to talk -- you want to talk about the weather ? gardening ? i mean , you know . brenda : i do n't really feel like talking right now , sonny . sonny : no , no . i understand . but see , i think that 's what jax wants . he wants to put us at odds . brenda : hmm . sonny : i mean , why else would he make a comment like carly gravitating towards me ? brenda : she does . sonny : the thing is , jax causes her nothing but grief . why would n't she want to keep her distance ? brenda : you know , it 's amazing . you have an answer for every single thing that has to do with carly , do n't you ? sonny : i just do n't want him manipulating you , that 's all . brenda : but why is it that you can help carly , and that 's ok , but if i help jax , someone must be manipulating me ? sonny : his main goal is to take josslyn away , and if he causes a problem between us , better yet . that way , he can walk away with josslyn like he can walk away with you . [ scene_break ] judge cole : this will be an informal hearing . i 'll be reviewing all witness testimony and various depositions starting with the recommendations of the mediator . then , i 'll render my decision . ms. yang , i 'd like to start the questioning with you . please state your name for the record . grace : grace yang . judge cole : and you understand you 're under oath ? grace : i do . judge cole : i 've been told you 've met with both parents . grace : yes , your honor . judge cole : can you give me your impressions ? grace : yes , your honor . mrs. jacks would like shared custody of their daughter josslyn , while mr. jacks feels that would not be in the best interest of the child . judge cole : and why is that ? grace : from what i 've been able to observe , carly jacks is quite volatile . carly : what ? that 's not true . no , i 'm not . judge cole : mrs. jacks , i 'll have to ask you to refrain from making any comment unless you 're answering one of my questions . grace : may i continue ? judge cole : please . grace : it would also appear mrs. jacks is unable to provide a safe home environment . carly : mrs. yang never bothered to visit my home . judge cole : if the court deems it necessary , that can be one of the things that comes out of this hearing . please continue . grace : from what i 've been able to observe , mrs. jacks has two other children from a previous marriage to an alleged crime figure , sonny corinthos . the two families continue to interact , and any repercussions from mr. corinthos ' criminal activity can easily fall on the children . additionally , michael , josslyn 's eldest sibling , is himself a convicted felon . he also suffered brain damage from a bullet wound -- a bullet apparently meant for his father . and as a result , he has severe emotional problems . judge cole : i see . grace : i 've also met with mr. corinthos . he is hostile and seemingly quite proud of his criminal background . he threatened mr. jacks in my presence . in my opinion , the man has no respect for the law , so how could he possibly have any regard for josslyn 's safety ? it is my belief , since mrs. jacks clearly has no intention of giving up her relationship with her former husband , that the child josslyn is in severe physical and emotional jeopardy whenever she 's in her mother 's home . therefore , it is my recommendation that mr. jacks be granted sole custody . [ scene_break ] sonny : what are you doing here ? kristina : it 's nice to see you , too , dad . sonny : no , no , no . it 's just that if this is about ethan -- look , carly 's going through a custody hearing . it 's a big deal . and i do n't want us to fight , 'cause it would n't be good for her . you understand ? kristina : do n't worry . we have plenty of time to fight later . i 'm actually here to support you . michael told me about the hearing , how jax is saying that it 's dangerous for joss to be around you . i want to tell the judge it is n't true . sonny : really ? how about the daughter who thinks that i 'm a -- butt ? [ laughs ] kristina : you 're also a great dad . you may be way overprotective and , sorry , more than a little sexist , but you love your kids , and you 'd do anything to protect us . we all know that . sonny : thanks , sweetheart . kristina : you 're not a threat to joss . she 's lucky to have you in her life , and the judge needs to hear that . [ scene_break ] judge cole : state your name , please . brenda : brenda barrett corinthos . judge cole : you understand you 've been called as a witness by mr. jacks ? brenda : yes . judge cole : you understand why ? brenda : yes , because i 'm married to sonny corinthos . judge cole : and mr. jacks believes your husband is a danger to his daughter . brenda : um , i -- i guess so . judge cole : do you agree ? brenda : i agree that my husband is a good man , and he loves his kids . you should see him with his kids . i 've -- well , i 've known sonny for a very long time , and i 've known jax for a very , very long time . and the truth is , they just do n't like each other . but i think everyone would agree that they 're both very devoted fathers . judge cole : that 's all well and good . but we 're here to decide a custody issue . the question before you is do you think your husband poses a threat to josslyn 'cause of his line of work and his relationship with mrs. jacks ? brenda : he does n't exactly have a relationship with mrs. jacks . they have two children together . judge cole : do your husband and carly jacks spend time together ? brenda : uh , yes , they do sometimes , but that 's always initiated by carly , because she does come to my husband for every little thing . and i have asked her , actually , to back off . but she refuses . so it 's up to her , i guess . judge cole : and mr. jacks believes that association puts his daughter at risk . brenda : um , well , i guess so . judge cole : do you believe your husband is a danger to the children around him ? you need to answer my question , mrs. corinthos . brenda : i do n't know if i can -- he 's my husband , so i do n't know if i can answer that question . judge cole : well , this is not a trial . this is an informal hearing . and you need to answer my questions . tell me this . do you believe mr. jacks should have sole custody of his daughter ? brenda : i believe that if mr. jacks had sole custody -- in fact , i know that he 's promised carly that she could be involved in every single aspect of josslyn 's life . so -- i mean , jax is a man who keeps his word . and he 's fair . he 's supportive . judge cole : now , let 's go back to my initial question . does your husband pose a danger to the children around him ?

[ scene_break ] jake : you ever think about the day that hayden was shot ? why did n't she just get the hell out of that garage ? sam : because she wanted to tell you who you are . jake : yeah , maybe . maybe she was lying . or maybe she was telling the truth . i do n't know . maybe she was trying to help me out , and she caught a bullet for her trouble . sam : that still is n't your fault . jake : it was my fault . i was the target . she was collateral damage , and now she 's lying in a hospital bed . you know , that was one of the risks of me having brain surgery -- that i might end up in a coma . and that scared the hell out of me , because i knew i did n't have anybody i could ask to kill me . sam : is that what you would have wanted ? jake : yeah . i 'm not afraid to die . sam : just -- just ... afraid to be helpless . jake : terrified , actually . valerie : chandler , can you do me a favor and call the launch captain ? tell him i 'll be ready in 15 ? jake : this one . sam : yeah , i like that one . valerie : sam ? sam : valerie ! hi . valerie : what are you guys doing here ?

[ scene_break ] dillon : luke did n't dump my mother . sabrina : since when ? dillon : it 's incredibly convoluted , but it all boils down to something pretty simple -- luke never actually cheated .

[ scene_break ] carly : what 's going on ? why did you want me to meet you here ? sonny : um , i have news about the source of josslyn 's donor kidney . carly : you know where josslyn 's transplant came from ? [ scene_break ] aaron : so i was right ? there is more to the parker situation ? kristina : yeah , and being with you here tonight like this -- whatever we become -- i think you deserve to know what it is . aaron : i do n't want you to feel like you have to share something with me . kristina : it 's been in the back of my mind every time we 're together , and i just want to put it out there and be done with it . aaron : okay , but whatever it is , you can trust me . kristina : i want to believe that . which is n't anything to do with you or anything that you 've done . it 's just i do n't have the greatest track record for picking the right people to trust -- something my mom and i have in common . [ scene_break ] anna : look at this . paul : that 's the evidence bag for the dagger that julian used on carlos . anna : yeah , and now that bastard 's gon na use it on alexis . jordan : i want checkpoints at every major junction . and i want increased presence at every bus and train station . yeah . we are gon na let julian know that he has no choice but to free alexis and surrender . anna : you tell your people to be cautious when approaching julian because if he gets cornered , he 's gon na lash out at alexis . [ scene_break ] julian : if you would have just believed in me the way you promised you would at our wedding , i 'd be free . you would be free . but here 's what 's gon na happen next , okay ? we have to take the next step , alexis . we do because , um , you left me no choice . why did you leave me no choice ? alexis : if you kill me , you kill our baby . is that what you want ? you really want to kill your own child ? julian , really think . if you kill me , you will kill our baby . [ scene_break ] sonny : ramona danvers . carly : i do n't know that name . sonny : try theresa adams . carly : theresa adams -- that was the woman -- - she was the administrator on josslyn 's transplant team . sonny : that 's the last transplant she supervised at general hospital . not long after joss ' procedure , theresa moved across the country , changed her name to ramona danvers , bought a big house , fancy car , membership at a country club -- the whole works . carly : living large for an administrator , huh ? sonny : well , it seems like she was supplementing her income with an organ- selling ring , and then she cashed out . carly : why change her name ? sonny : i do n't know , but you know what , something spooked her . i think it had to do with the circumstances surrounding everybody thinking that jake webber was josslyn 's donor . but i can tell you right now , this woman could shed light into what 's happening . carly : [ sighs ] some things are better left in the dark . sonny : come again ? carly : that 's what jax said . i finally got in touch with him , and he -- he does n't want to revisit the issue . he 's afraid of what 's underneath the rocks we 're flipping over . sonny : do you agree ? carly : um ... sonny : look , look , like i told you before , we can just shred the evidence and forget about it , or i can hold onto it until you need to see it again . carly : well , come on . you know , jax is right . we know something ugly went down , so what are we gon na find out ? on the other side , knowing the medical history of josslyn 's donor ... sonny : mm - hmm . carly : ... that protects josslyn in the future . sonny : jax ca n't argue with that . carly : no , okay , all right . how can you help me find this ramona danvers ? well , i do n't need to 'cause i kind of brought her to you . [ scene_break ] laura : so we overhear him talking on the phone . it sounds like he 's talking to his father . he says he 's talking to his father 's voicemail , so that he can hear his voice , because he misses his dad . now , that sounds reasonable . but just a few moments later , he 's gorging himself on hot dogs up on a stage , loving the attention . it does n't make sense . kevin : yeah , it does n't sit well with me , either . laura : you know , i hate feeling suspicious of him , but i ca n't help but feel there 's something more going on here . kevin : like what ? laura : i do n't know . but i need to find out . [ scene_break ] [ phone beeps ] spencer : oh , father 's gon na be so proud . it 's almost time for us to talk . [ scene_break ] nikolas : well , you two certainly are sure of yourselves . ava : you 're just figuring that out now ? i do not deserve this treatment . jason , what happened to that moral code of yours that i 've heard so much about , where you only punish those who move against you ? i am perfectly innocent . nikolas : ava , do n't waste your breath . they wo n't listen to you . sam : wow , that 's the first sensible thing you 've said in months . nikolas : 'cause they do n't know what 's good for them . if they had half a brain between them , they 'd skype jordan ashford when the storm clears and let her know that i 'm alive . and then we can all go our separate ways . sam : [ chuckles ] what happened to being able to take your own medicine ? jason : we 've already been over this . letting you go is not an option . so sit tight . nikolas : it is if you know what 's good for you . jason : [ chuckles ] okay . [ scene_break ] paul : i 'll coordinate with the state police . they 're gon na need to cast a wider net if julian slips out of town . anna : i know of another source . molly : what 's going on ? where 's my mom ? [ scene_break ] aaron : hey , we do n't have to have the `` ex `` conversation at this particular moment , okay ? kristina : i just want to clear up any misconceptions that you might have , starting with the fact that parker was my professor , never my ex . aaron : okay , and did parker ever want to be more than just your professor ? kristina : no , i wanted to be more than parker 's student , which is a big difference . aaron : but parker never returned the feelings . is that why you took a break from school ? kristina : basically , but not completely . [ scoffs ] i thought this would have gotten easier to talk about by now . aaron : hey , it 's okay . everybody 's got their whatever , you know ? and this thing with parker , it 's -- it 's over , right ? or are you still having feelings for him ? is that -- is that what you 're trying to tell me ? [ cell phone rings ] kristina : sorry . i 've got to take this . molly ? molly : come home right now . kristina : what 's wrong ? molly : it 's mom . [ scene_break ] alexis : julian , you have to really think -- think -- if you kill me , you will kill this innocent child growing inside of me , and that 's a baby we made together . it 's our baby . julian : i would never hurt any of my children . alexis : i know you would n't . you 're a good father . you love and you protect your children . julian : i do . i do . the ones i have , and not some -- not some make - believe baby . alexis : what ? julian : i know you 're not pregnant . i know there was never any baby . see , you lied . you lied , alexis ! you lied to get me to drop my guard and confess ! alexis : no , i ... took the pregnancy test that you provided . you were right there . julian : mm - hmm . well , you faked it , did n't you ? alexis : how could i have ? julian : i do n't know , but you faked it . alexis : and what if you 're wrong ? is that a chance you 're willing to take ? i know you . i know you wo n't kill your own child . i know you . julian : alexis , [ chuckles ] you did know me . you really did know me . now , you saved me . you made me a better man . you made me ... you made me the best man i could be . but then ... you destroyed me . alexis : no . julian : you destroyed me . so the man you knew is gone . and in a moment ... alexis : [ sobs ] julian : in a moment , you 're gon na be gone , too . alexis : [ whines ] julian : shh . shh . [ scene_break ] jordan : because your mother wore a wire , we were able to record julian admitting that he murdered carlos rivera and ordered the hit on duke lavery . kristina : okay , that 's great for you guys , but what about our mother ? i mean , she 's not an undercover cop . you risked her life because of some stupid -- paul : your mother chose to wear a wire . molly : julian is a psycho . did n't you guys know what might happen ? kristina : we just want to know exactly what you guys are doing to find our mother . molly : julian knows what she did , and he 'll hurt her for it , maybe even kill her . jordan : okay , molly , i swear to you , on my life , we are gon na find your mother . we 're gon na bring her back safe . anna : we have everyone at the pcpd working on this , as well as other resources , too . [ scene_break ] alexis : please do n't do this . no matter what , you still love me . julian : turn around and walk to the end of the pier . go . alexis : so you wo n't have to look me in the eye when you slit my throat and throw me in the water ? screw you ! i wo n't ! if you 're gon na kill me , you 're gon na look me in the eye when you do it , and then you 're gon na look in the eyes of your daughter and your grandson , who will hate you , because of what you 've done to me ! julian : so be it . [ gun cocks ] sonny : freeze ! that means do n't move , julian . [ scene_break ] carly : thank you for coming . i 'm sorry my husband was called away so suddenly . ramona : well , he still makes his presence known . i 'm properly intimidated , and let 's be real . it 's not like i had a choice about making this trip . carly : okay . i wo n't waste your time . i would like to ask you a few questions about my daughter 's kidney transplant . i know you were the pediatric transplant administrator for general hospital at the time . ramona : look , your husband told me about your little girl . i understand that you want answers , but you wo n't get them from me . do you have any idea of how many transplants i supervised ? and this was , what , six years ago ? carly : this was the last transplant you were involved with . i want you to walk me through that day , because you may remember something that will reveal the source of the donor kidney . ramona : you 're not hearing me . i do n't know about any illegal organs -- where they came from , where they went -- nothing . carly : i 'm not recording this conversation , and i 'm not a cop . but what i am is a mother who will stop at nothing to protect her child . and , lucky me , i have a husband with many resources , and i 'm not afraid to use them . so let 's say you adjust your attitude and answer my questions , or you will seriously regret it . [ scene_break ] kevin : spencer has been very tight - lipped on the subject of his father 's disappearance . now , i can justify his reticence with me , but it 's much more difficult to explain why he has n't opened up to you . laura : i 'm sure he 's opening up to someone . kevin : have anyone in mind ? laura : well , there is emma drake , although i ca n't understand why he would want to hide that . i do n't know . part of me feels like i should just leave this one alone , 'cause i do n't want my prying to interfere with a grieving process that might actually be working for him . kevin : and the other part ? laura : knows that there 's something more than spencer grieving his father in his own very unique way . i think there 's something more going on . i just want to know what it is . [ scene_break ] nikolas : jason , this is your last chance . let me go and drop this . for your own sake . you 're not taking me back to port charles . helena wo n't let you . sam : [ chuckling ] oh , come on . helena is dead . nikolas : she 's dead , but she 's not gone . ca n't you feel her ? in the walls and in the wind ? she had too much hate in her to let go of this world truly -- hate for people like you . you come into her home , and you threaten her grandson . you know what , you can forget about going back to port charles with me . you two are foolish to come here after she cursed you . you 'll be lucky to escape with your lives .

[ scene_break ] carly : you ready to talk ? ramona : it was n't about the money -- not completely . i did a lot of good . i saved lives . i helped people get organs who could afford them , and it made room on the transplant list for those neediest cases . carly : and the donors were n't exploited at all . ramona : dealing with the donors was n't one of my responsibilities . i have no idea who they were , where they came from , what their circumstances were . carly : what was your role ? ramona : i got word when there was a ... a transaction . i was told the name of the recipient and when the organ would arrive . i took care of the paper trail and oversaw delivery . carly : who delivered the organs ? ramona : i did n't know his name , and i knew well enough not to ask . i did my part . i kept quiet . i got paid . that 's how it worked . until ... carly : until what ? ramona : your daughter 's operation . before that , i 'd always dealt with the same guy . that day , somebody else showed up . carly : can you describe him ? ramona : it was a woman .

anna : because they love each other . and robin is only pushing him away because of her messed up childhood , and i feel responsible for that . i want to stop her from making a huge mistake . noah : well , i think you 're setting her up to make a huge mistake . i was there for patrick 's birth ; i was there through the whole thing . i was a terrible father . anna : i think you still are , quite frankly . noah : exactly , my -- my point exactly . i 'm his role model . robin : would you stop ?

'cause , you know , we got ta live in the moment . and , you know , you sucked it up and apologized . that took a lot of energy , so you must have worked up an appetite . so why do n't you stay for lunch , and guess what , i will cook it for you . claire : heh ! what , you cook ? sonny : another thing you do n't believe about me , but i 'll prove it to you . claire : no . no , thank you . sonny : why not ? claire : um , because it 's inappropriate . sonny : only if you end up as dessert . claire : i really have to go . sonny : ha ha ha ! come on . hey .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : maximista invited me to her place on the pretext of engaging in much - to - be - desired couples activity . i arrived to find the door calculatingly open . maximista was engaged in a disgusting ... a disgusting ... lip lock with the heinous dr. matt hunter in a misguided effort to inspire my jealousy . you know , to make the jackal lay claim to what is his by non - wedded decree . instead , i walked away . jason : it sounds like maxie , um , went to a lot of trouble to get your attention . i mean , is n't this kind of her way of -- her way of showing you that she loves you ? spinelli : ha . who cares ? yes , i guess love has many degrees and elevations , but i 've been seeing this coming for weeks . and whatever maximista 's previous romantic attachment , whatever we were , whatever ... it is clear that we are drifting -- beyond drifting apart . that she does n't have the heart , or dare i say , the guts to make the final and cruel break , so i have to do it for her ... for us . because things as they stand are not fair to me . [ scene_break ] maxie : let me clear something up . lucky and i are both adults , and we 're both technically available , with strings . so if we 're willing to accept each other 's strings and limitations , that 's not really anybody 's business , especially yours . elizabeth : why do n't you just let poor spinelli go ? stop using him to prop up your massive ego and fill your black - hole need for male attention . maxie : listen to the one - woman wrecking ball , the baby making machine . how many is it now , elizabeth ? 3 kids with 3 different fathers , and you 're calling me a slut ? lucky : okay , okay . that 's -- that 's enough . maxie : no , i 'm done now . thanks for the assist , hot lips . elizabeth : what did she just call you ? hot lips ? really ? lucky : come on . she 's -- that was n't what it looked like . elizabeth : oh , care to enlighten me ? lucky : no . no , not particularly . elizabeth : oh , okay . please do n't tell me this is happening again . do n't tell me you 're falling for her . i mean , the woman who disrespected our marriage , who manipulated your drug addiction , who faked a pregnancy and a miscarriage . i mean , really ? seriously ? lucky : look , elizabeth , there 's no point to rehash this , okay ? the past is gone . it does n't matter anymore . not what happened with maxie . not what happened with us . [ scene_break ] skye : here 's a tip . if you were to direct even half the attention my way that you 're sending carly , you might have a prayer of making her jealous . jax : sorry . skye : i forgive you . it 's actually nice to be with a man who 's not putting my hard body or soul at risk . jax : it was n't always like that , was it ? skye : no . once upon a time we inspired deep passion in one another . and yet here you are hopelessly in love with carly . who would have thought ? jax : you know what i do n't like ? that he 's an actual contender , you know , being a doctor and all at the hospital . skye : plus he 's sexy as hell . jax : not helpful . skye : sorry . [ scene_break ] steve : you know , i really hope this is n't the start of a trend . this is the second time in 48 hours a woman has decided to use me to make another guy jealous . carly : you should be flattered . i mean , the ploy would n't work if you were n't jealous - worthy . steve : that 's a way to look at it . carly : ha ha ha ! thank you for helping me out . it 's very nice of you . steve : yeah , you know what they say about nice guys . carly : well , they sometimes end up with naughty girls . steve : ha ha ha ! i love your relentless positivism . i 've tried that once before , ending up with a naughty girl . you were still spinning in sonny 's orbit back then . carly : free at last . steve : not exactly . i mean , now jax is your sun and moon . carly : jax is about to be my ex - sun and moon . i 'm just not gon na hand him over to skye . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : that looks fun . nikolas : hi . elizabeth : wow , spencer , that 's an awesome dinosaur . spencer : thank you . elizabeth : how 's it going ? nikolas : great , actually . i mean , you know i 've been kicking myself for so long about this . being afraid of getting it wrong seems like a lame excuse from this vantage point , does n't it ? elizabeth : you wear the role of dad very well . you 're about to do it all over again . nikolas , i was wrong for pushing you out of this pregnancy . i would like to make up for it . [ scene_break ] skye : you can always put down the game and go prostrate yourself . jax : you know what , carly only wants what she has to work for . but i do n't want to take advantage of you like that . skye : if not me , then who ? jax : that 's a good point . [ scene_break ] carly : you know , you have every right to be mad at me . i did ask you here under false pretenses . steve : i 'm deeply offended . but i 'm struck at how refreshingly uncomplicated this is . i 'm spending time with a beautiful woman and my heart 's not on the line . carly : truth ? steve : mm - hmm . carly : jax 's attention . i mean , this whole situation with michael , jax played a major part . and i thought he had done what i could n't forgive . and i know that 's rich coming from me . but now we 're through most of it . and i do n't know , i think there 's something worth saving . i love him . that 's got to count for something . [ scene_break ] lulu : i 'm sorry . you must think i 'm a nutcase . michael : no , i know you 're not . it 's fine . lulu : it 's just that this is really upsetting . michael : you guys obviously need to talk . i 'll just -- lulu : no . no , no , no . stop , stop , stop . that 's the last thing i wanted . i 'm not here to run you out . michael : no , look , i have to go anyways . i have a meeting with my parole officer , so i ca n't be late . i 'll see you guys . dante : hey , good luck . michael : thanks , dante . lulu : bye . dante : you want to tell me what happened ? lulu : it 's just hard seeing your best friend self destruct a little more every day . dante : what did maxie do now ? lulu : she set spinelli up . i mean , spinelli was supposed to walk in on her making out with matt . and in maxie 's magical world , he would get jealous and reclaim her or something . but instead of walking in , spinelli walked away looking like his heart was ripped out . dante : well , that would explain the mood . lulu : you saw him ? dante : yeah , with jason working on the franco thing . lulu : he was bad , huh ? dante : yeah , i 'd say so . lulu : and maxie does n't even see what she 's really doing to him . and that just made me think , i really , really do n't want that to be us . dante : we do n't play games with each other and we never will . lulu : okay . that 's all i want to hear . dante : yeah . it 's a good thing , too , because i have all the games on my plate right now that i can handle .

[ scene_break ] mcbain : hey , you know , there 's something that 's happened between us . it 's been happening between us . and the more -- the more we deny it , the more often it seems to happen . sam : yeah . it started when we met at the church . mcbain : yeah , at the church that day . sam : i was falling apart . mcbain : normally , i would have turned around , i would have walked right out . sam : but you did n't . you put your hand right on my shoulder , a total stranger . why ? why ? mcbain : i do n't know . i just did n't want to leave you there like that . sam : [ chuckles ] do n't take this the wrong way , but sometimes i wish you had . mcbain : [ chuckles ] sam : [ sighs ] mcbain : yeah , i can see that . i have n't exactly made things -- easier for you , have i ? or jason , for that matter . sam : jason and i have had our fair share of complications way before you came along . mcbain : yeah . complications . for both of us . sam : sorry about that . mcbain : no . i do n't -- i do n't have regrets . i do n't regret knowing you . whatever it is that 's between us , i 'm glad it 's there . i think i 'd miss it if it was gone . ooh . okay . sam : so , we are -- back where we started . we both have this connection that we ca n't put into words . what are you gon na do about it ?

[ scene_break ] mcbain : i 've been here before . drunk and angry , and suddenly there 's someone -- someone right in front of you , and they get it . one wrong move , and you 're doing something -- you ca n't ever take back . sam : what 's the wrong move ? mcbain : the wrong move for me would be to forget that i love natalie -- i love our son and that we have a good life together , and -- i do n't want to risk losing that . no matter how much i feel for you . sam : yeah , i - i um -- i agree no matter how much -- whatever this is going on , i 'm still married , and i do n't want to do anything that would betray my marriage . mcbain : you know , i know -- well , less about marriage than maybe anyone on the planet , and i have no right saying this to you , but -- you know , with all the -- pain you have in you right now and everything you 've been through with this loss , do you think that maybe you 're not fully dealing with it , sam , that maybe you 're putting so much of it on jason , maybe trying to punish him ? and what 's gon na happen ? what are you gon na have left when it 's all over ? sam : i do n't -- i do n't want you to betray your family . mcbain : i 'm going back to llanview first thing tomorrow . sam : when you go back , will liam and natalie be waiting for you ? mcbain : they 're still in london , visiting family , which is -- it 's good . it 'll give me a chance to go back and -- get my life in order . i 'll be there to welcome them home . sam : so -- when they get home , will things go -- back to the way they were ? mcbain : we 'll go back to living our life as a family . sam : are you -- are you gon na tell natalie that we kissed ? [ scene_break ] patrick : what kind of father do you guys think i am ? maxie : the kind who leaves amphetamines in an unmarked -- lulu : what if emma gets into your pills ? patrick : it 's not gon na happen . lulu : okay , fine . say it does n't . say that you 're able to continue taking the pills and emma never gets her hands on them . there is a bigger way for her to be hurt by this . look , i barely saw my father growing up 'cause he was always busy . he was busy on the road or in the club , just like you can be busy at the hospital . and when he 'd come home , he 'd have a drink . that was his thing . okay , it was a way for him to numb his reality . and you found a way to completely avoid dealing with reality altogether . if you avoid dealing with your pain , you can not be the father that emma needs . if you do n't deal with this , she 's not gon na deal with it ! and this detachment is gon na prevent you from showing her that you love her and that you care about her and you support her . and i am telling you from personal experience , no matter how sorry you are later and no matter how much you want to make up for it after the fact , the time is lost . and there 's some stuff that 's actually permanent damage . maxie : hey , just look at what happened with your own dad when your mom died and noah dove headfirst into the bottle . trashed his career . lost your respect . and almost lost your love . and think about how bad he hurt you . it 's the same way you 'd be hurting emma , and -- you just have to stop this right now , patrick . patrick : you guys are playing dirty . lulu : patrick , you have a choice . you stop taking the pills , and this is all over , or you keep taking them , and it gets worse . [ scene_break ] johnny : all right , you 're starr 's father , so you have every right to be concerned . so , todd , why do n't you lay it out on the table for me . what specifically are you worried about ? todd : your ulterior motive . johnny : which would be ? todd : i do n't know yet , but it does n't add up . there 's no reason for you to go out of your way for starr . johnny : she 's been through a lot . i 'd like to help the girl out . not to mention , she 's a hell of a singer . todd : there are generous , compassionate people in this world . my sister viki -- she 's one of them -- always doing things out of the goodness of her heart , complete pain in the ass , a real stickler for doing the right thing . the rest of us -- present company included -- are motivated by self - interest . you 're helping my daughter because there 's something in it for you , and i do n't know what , but i intend to find out . johnny : you 're right . i do have an ulterior motive for working with starr . [ scene_break ] starr : after we talked last night , i - i thought , okay , good . we got everything out in the open , and now things can be simple . michael : that 's a good thing , right ? starr : i know . i thought that when i went to bed . but then this morning , i woke up , and i thought of you , and i do n't want you to be my last thought before i go to bed or my first thought when i wake up in the morning . michael : right . you 're not ready . i respect that . starr : [ sighs ] michael : it 's just , uh -- being friends with you is turning out to be a lot harder than i expected . so i do n't know . maybe it 'll be best , easier , if maybe we do n't spend as much time together . starr : you want to spend less time together ? michael : i want to do whatever makes you feel right . starr : what makes me feel right is being -- around you -- and talking to you and -- i do n't know , michael . maybe we should give this a shot . [ scene_break ] anna : go ahead . right . any idea of cause of death ? officer : it appears to be a gunshot wound . but there 's too much decomposition to be sure . we 'll need a full work - up from the m.e . anna : okay . was there anything on the body ? officer : this was in his pocket . anna : oh . hello , anthony . officer : do we have a suspect ? anna : yeah , i 'm gon na need more information before i pull in anyone . okay , um , can we just listen up , everyone ? most likely this is anthony zacchara . as yet , cause of death unknown . until the m.e . 's report , i want everyone to just keep quiet about this . if we 're gon na make an arrest , we 're gon na need the element of surprise . [ scene_break ] johnny : i do have other reasons for helping starr . todd : okay , i hate to say `` i told you so . `` carly : no , you do n't . todd : you 're right . i love saying `` i told you so . `` i told you so . told you so . okay , johnny , cough it up . what do you get out of keeping starr in your clutches ? johnny : i get my shot at redemption . carly : i hate to say `` i told you so . `` todd : ho ! speaking of shots , i think i need some insulin . johnny : i used to profit off the pain i caused people -- exploiting them , their weaknesses , and their mistakes . but i 'm through with that life . i 'm not doing that anymore . i got something much better to live for . todd : you 're not actually buying this redemption act , are you ? carly : it 's not an act ! johnny 's trying to be a better man . why do n't you try it , todd ? todd : johnny and i have one thing in common , okay ? we share one fundamental truth . we will always disappoint the people that we promise that we will never hurt . johnny : speak for yourself . todd : i am speaking for myself . johnny will return to form sooner or later . sooner , probably , rather than later , if he has n't already . you have a secret , do n't you , johnny ? johnny : fine , todd . if we 're that much alike , then i 'm guessing you 've got a secret , too . i 'll tell you mine if you tell me yours . [ scene_break ] mcbain : will i tell natalie ? that 's a good question . sam : it 's just that when i was keeping all those things from jason about franco and the baby , you said that i should tell him the truth , even though a lie would spare him the pain . mcbain : yeah , i 'm good that way . natalie once kept something from me , and -- we nearly did n't make it past it . she told me she did it because she was trying to protect me . i - i did n't understand her then . sam : okay . you understand her now . mcbain : i know she would hate me for lying to her . sam : okay . i 'm -- i 'm probably in no position to give anybody advice about anything , but -- you have a family to think about . why ruin that over some pointless -- drunken kiss ? [ scene_break ] jason : i - i never , never want to hurt you . elizabeth : i know . and not that what just happened requires an apology , but if you need to hear it , then , yes , i forgive you . jason : thank you . elizabeth : what sam 's doing -- o - or why she 's doing it may be a function of grief . i do n't know . but it would be a mistake to react out of hurt . jason : that 's why i came up here -- to get away so i would n't make things worse . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] and then i show up and blow your good intentions all to hell . jason : no . no , i 'm glad you 're here . elizabeth : me too . [ scene_break ] maxie : look , we know you 're not an addict or anything -- lulu : patrick , there 's a better chance of you becoming one if you continue to take this stuff unsupervised . and you do n't have the luxury of messing around with your brain when you 're responsible for a little girl . patrick : okay . now what ? lulu : getting rid of them would be a start . maxie : yeah . uh , we know you have that bottle in your robe . do you have any others ? patrick : i 'll go get it . put this behind us , right ? lulu : i think you need to talk to a doctor . patrick : i do n't need professional help . maxie : we know that doctors do n't like to be patients , but you have to do this for emma . lulu : if a doctor thinks you need medication , he 'll write you a prescription , and he 'll make sure that you 're taking it properly . patrick : god , you just , like -- maxie : does that sound reasonable ? patrick : everybody just expects me to be okay and just -- i did n't know there was -- there was a time limit on grieving . lulu : there 's not . maxie : take all the time you need , okay . no one 's gon na judge you for it . patrick : really ? maxie : we just want to make sure that you do n't make yourself sick in some other way . [ scene_break ] anna : so , this autopsy 's a priority . i want a preliminary report on my desk first thing in the morning . officer : you got it . luke : [ muffled shouting ] anna : cadaver dog had such a strong reaction to the shed . officer : dead animal . or it could be used by transients . anna : mm . luke : [ grunting ] [ scene_break ] todd : i 've got nothing to hide . johnny : hmm . that 's two things we have in common . todd : what 's the other one ? johnny : starr . and her contract -- it 's not for sale . have a happy fourth , todd . todd : you hurt my friend carly , if you hurt my daughter -- if i find out that you 're playing either one of them , it wo n't end well for you .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you and alexis broke up . i 'm sorry to hear that . shawn : so , uh , this job you mentioned -- sonny : did it have anything to do with the job you did for me ? shawn : no . it had to do with me . you know , a decision i made . that 's all there is to it . sonny : we 've got to deal with franco . shawn : well , we tried dealing with franco once before . sonny : you tried with carly . now it 's my turn . shawn : the timing could be better . sonny : to kill him . but not to make him fear me . i 'm the reason he made bail . and now he 's walking around , messing with people that i care about . so i 'm gon na give him a reason not to mess with anybody . [ scene_break ] franco : so , this is where you take my daughter . morgan : yeah . i mean , she likes it . i kind of fixed up the place a little . franco : mm . a little primitive compared to the palatial digs across the lawn , do n't you think ? morgan : yeah , well , it gives us distance from all the crazies over at the mansion -- no offense . franco : oh , none taken . oddly enough , i passed all the tests . so , the minute i move in to have a little bonding time with my only born , you run away with her . morgan : yeah . uh , ava mentioned something about that . it 's funny . you guys are very similar . it 's probably why it was so easy for you to get back together after such a long time . ava : so , maybe if we can show her that we forgive each other , let bygones be bygones , maybe she will do the same for us . franco : i can see why my daughter likes you . you 're so bright and perceptive . hey , why do n't we rustle her up and we can fully embrace the quartermaine lifestyle . we can go for a sail on the lake or play lawn croquet or go poke poor people with sticks . that 's a joke , by the way . well , technically , it 's not a joke . it 's -- it 's irony . but , hey , only the truth is funny . morgan : yeah , the only problem is kiki 's not here . franco : where is she ? morgan : she 's helping her cousin . [ scene_break ] brad : oh , please , do n't stop on my account . kiki : well , you were -- you were leaving , right ? you signed everything , so you were gon na get going . michael : yeah , yeah . head out . brad : uh , you know , it seemed to me that you were giving a real up close and personal examination of the young lady 's esophagus with your tongue . michael : okay , what is it to you ? brad : i just find it odd . i mean , everyone being tested as a potential bone- marrow donor for danny morgan is in fact a blood relative , which would mean that , uh , your little display was n't a simple expression of love , but love inbred - style . j'accuse -- it 's incest . [ scene_break ] sam : silas managed to convince monica to make him gh 's head of oncology . alexis : has she actually met the guy ? sam : he must have impressed her . alexis : how ? he 's mean . he 's arrogant . he 's awful . sam : he is good at his job . alexis : a doctor devoid of bedside manner can not , by definition , be good at his job . sam : okay , silas ' personality may be a little bit challenging , but i think part of the reason why silas went after the job to begin with is because of rafe , so he would n't have to take him back to new york , so he would n't have to be away from everybody that cared about him . and the protocol that he recommended for danny seems to be working , even though it is in the early stages . alexis : do n't you think this is happening rather quickly ? sam : to hear silas tell it , he hammered monica , highlighting gh 's failures in oncology and presented his plan to make gh the premier cancer center in the northeast . she was suitably impressed and obviously offered him a truckload of money . alexis : ah ! you see . now the real motive . it 's not because he cares about danny . it 's not 'cause he cares about rafe . it 's all about the money . sam : i do n't -- i do n't care , mom . whatever the case , silas is the boss now , and his first priority was to revamp the staff . so dr. singh is out and , yes , silas is now taking on danny personally . alexis : are you sure this is what you want ? sam : i may not like the guy , but he was the one to -- to see danny 's symptoms and diagnose him before anyone knew he was sick . alexis : you 're prepared to have dr. silas treat him on a regular basis ? sam : mom , i do n't care if he takes over the whole damn hospital , as long as he saves my son 's life . [ scene_break ] ava : wow . silas . it 's been a while . silas : a while . yeah , that 's putting it mildly . ava : oh , my god . what -- what are you doing here ? you -- i thought you worked in manhattan . silas : i 'm here now . it 's a recent move . ava : you look ... good . silas : thanks . you too . now that we got that out of the way , i have a lot of work to get to . ava : silas , wait . you ca n't just walk away from me . not again . [ scene_break ] brad : and you say gays are sick . kiki : excuse me ? michael : nobody said anything about gays being sick . brad : oh , plenty of people do . and how many times do those same people on their high horses , casting judgment on everyone else around them , end up being the real deviants ? oh ! sometimes straight people make me ill ! michael : okay . we 're not deviants . kiki : you 're forgetting something , jackass . just because we 're both related to danny morgan does n't mean that we 're from the same side of the family . michael : right . did you ever think of that ? brad : yeah . you have a point . so , uh , tell me , are you related or not ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : ava jerome and franco are back together ? could you be wrong about this ? carly : no , i saw them kissing . and they made it clear -- very clear -- that they 're back together . spinelli : interesting . i mean , i just assumed that she would want nothing to do with him . she went to such great lengths to make sure he had no contact with her child . carly : i know . that 's exactly what he told me the first time i met him at that christmas - tree lot , that his daughter 's bitch of a mother wo n't let him see her . but obviously something 's changed for ava and franco to be running into each other 's arms . spinelli : they did conceive a child together . perhaps seeing each other again rekindled feelings that had long lain dormant . i mean , the heart is a mysterious organ . it would n't be the first time a child brought two people together . but may i ask , why does it matter to you ? carly : have you been talking to sonny ? spinelli : no . should -- should i have ? carly : no . never -- never mind . look , i just want information on this woman . i 'm not gon na do anything . i 'm just really curious about her intentions . spinelli : may i ask where your curiosity stems from ? carly : i 'm worried about morgan . spinelli : oh . yes , yes . i heard young morgan is returned to our fair city . it must be a comfort to have him home . carly : yeah , it would be if he was n't living under the same roof as ava jerome and franco . spinelli : they are residing together ? carly : yes , because kiki and morgan are now dating . and now that kiki is suddenly a quartermaine , they 're all living under the same roof . and with ava and franco joined at the hip , this is dangerous , and i do n't want my son getting caught in the crossfire . spinelli : like miss falconeri . carly : yes . exactly like miss falconeri . look , i just need to know what 's going on . ava was hiding morgan in new york city , and now they 're both living at the quartermaines ' . spinelli : such proximity could be reason for concern . carly : that woman is up to something , and i 'm gon na find out what it is . [ scene_break ] duke : surely you have other leads . anna : no . nothing so far . you know , in the first few days , i was just so focused on carly and sonny and shawn that i did n't pursue any alternate theories . duke : mm . understandable , given sonny 's reputation . anna : yes , but a good investigator does n't do that . you know , you do n't get married to one suspect or one scenario . it makes you blind to any conflicting evidence . and now , by the time that you found out there was a second shooter , so much time has passed . i just feel like the trail 's gone cold . duke : so there are no new suspects . anna : oh , there 's dozens of suspects . there 's no shortage of people who want franco dead . [ scene_break ] silas : what ? what is it ? we have nothing to say to each other . ava : i ca n't believe you think that ... after everything that 's happened . silas : that 's precisely why i do n't want to speak to you . ava : you may have to get over that . i recently moved to port charles , as well . silas : well , good for you . ava : silas . do n't make me beg you . just ... let me buy you a cup of coffee . okay ? you can spare the time for that , right ? it 's just , i ca n't help feeling like our running into each other , it is n't just chance . silas . just one cup of coffee . okay ? please . and then you 'll never have to deal with me again . [ elevator bell dings ] silas : one cup of coffee . [ scene_break ] shawn : okay , i 'll get to work tracking franco . sonny : no need for that . he 's at the quartermaines ' . so is morgan . shawn : well , we ca n't have that . sonny : morgan is with franco 's daughter , kiki . tracy and aj wo n't let her out of their sight , not with morgan . shawn : so the kid thinks he 's fighting for his relationship . sonny : well , you know , he 's -- morgan wo n't listen to reason . but franco might . shawn : and what if he wo n't ? sonny : you 're just gon na have to make him . shawn : after you . [ both chuckle ] [ scene_break ] franco : i 'm afraid your brother is too far gone to benefit from any help from kiki . morgan : yeah , well , i was n't talking about michael . franco : oh , hostile . morgan : i do n't want to talk about my brother . franco : you 're the one who said that kiki was helping her cousin . if you were n't talking about michael , who were you talking about ? morgan : danny , sam 's kid . he 's very sick . he could die . [ scene_break ] alexis : whatever works for danny works for me . i just do n't want silas to give you too much grief . sam : i can handle him . alexis : you should n't have to handle your son 's doctor . his job is to treat danny . you know , it 's also part of his job to have a rapport with danny and a rapport with you , and if he ca n't do that , then he should n't be in medicine . sam : mom , i 'm gon na save my review until after danny 's in remission . alexis : you 're right . let 's stay positive . sam : yeah . i mean , the chemo seems to be working well . i 'm sure he 's gon na be fine . and if he -- if he does n't ... and we do have to go through with the bone marrow after , spinelli put together a potential list of donors from my side of the family and from jason 's , and one of them will work out . alexis : good . now , did you go through everyone on the list ? can i make some calls ? sam : there are a few that i still have to run down . but there 's one that i may have to talk to in person . alexis : why ? sam : 'cause he , uh , he 's gon na need a little convincing . alexis : seriously ? who in their right mind would turn that baby down ? sam : franco . [ scene_break ] brad : it 's not a difficult question . are you or are you not related ? oh , uh , too caught up in your forbidden love to think straight ? never mind . i 'll just take a look - see in the files over here . michael : give me those . brad : whoa ! [ chuckles ] do n't even . these became hospital property once they were filled out by ... michael corinthos iii , son of aj quartermaine , who is daniel morgan 's uncle . and ... lauren katherine jerome . it says here your nickname is `` kiki . `` adorable . and you are the daughter of a robert frank , a.k.a . franco quartermaine , who is also daniel morgan 's uncle . so , in conclusion , aj and franco are half - brothers , thereby making you two first cousins ! boom ! advantage brad . kiki : you 're incredibly gross . you just spoke in the third person , did n't you ? brad : [ scoffs ] okay . time for a little attitude adjustment . i do n't need some family tree telling me that cousin plus cousin equals gross . i 'd just hate for this to come out and embarrass you . [ chuckles ] but is it not my duty as a medical professional to ensure the sanctity of the gene pool ? oh , what to do ? what ... to ... do ? [ scene_break ] anna : so we 've made this preliminary list of all the people that franco has wronged . duke : i would imagine that 's a very long list . anna : it is . it 's a very long list . yeah . and then the fbi -- they have him on this list of suspects of all these unsolved murders . but i 'm concentrating on victims closer to home , of which there are many . and this is a mammoth undertaking , i have to say . and we are sorely understaffed . duke : i 'm not so sure this idea will appeal to you , but i could go through other channels and speak to people and maybe get some information if you would like . anna : what ? duke : or if you do n't like . anna : i ca n't tell you what to do . but i would prefer it if you kept your distance from your former life . if not for your sake , but for others , as well . duke : all right . i was only trying to help . anna : well , you are being helpful . you know , just being here with me , just being someone i can trust and ... that 's being helpful . it 's not easy being commissioner . i can see why mac wanted to resign . duke : are you having second thoughts ? anna : yes . constantly . but i 'm not giving up that easily . i took this job , and i 'm gon na continue with it . and i 've got you here to buck me up when i feel frustrated , as i do now . duke : well , any time you need a really good buck , you let me know . anna : [ chuckles ] duke : there you are , smiling again . [ chuckles ] anna : well , anyway , i 'm gon na bring this person to justice , whoever it is , whoever shot olivia , once i find out . duke : ava jerome . ava : duke lavery . we meet again . [ scene_break ] alexis : i ca n't believe we 're at a point where we have to ask franco to see if he 's a donor match . sam : mom , i do n't like it either , but i would go to the devil himself to save my kid 's life . alexis : there 's got to be somebody else . sam : somebody ? the best candidate would be a full - blooded sibling , but danny does n't have that . so i have to cast a very wide net right now . alexis : okay , so we 'll ask every family member -- sam : ask everyone ! mom , i do n't have the luxury to do that ! this is danny we 're talking about . this is his life . franco is jason 's twin brother . he may or may not be a match , but i 've got to figure it out . alexis : well , as long as you 're entertaining nightmare scenarios -- sam : i know ! i know ! would i -- would i have a baby with franco ? i have already thought about this . mom , i would do just about anything to save my kid 's life . but a baby with franco -- that is -- that is the last resort . right now , all i 'm worried about is getting franco tested , so i might as well just get it out of the way . alexis : absolutely not . sam : mom , do n't you get it ? i do n't care who franco was or what he 's done , as long as he might be able to help my son . alexis : of course , i get it . you 're a mother . you would crawl through glass to protect your kid . but i 'm a mother , too , and i will not let that bastard worm his way back into your head . so if anyone 's gon na compel franco to do this , it 's me . [ scene_break ] franco : my little nephew -- my little nephew could die . morgan : yeah . kiki and michael went to gh to get tested along with the rest of the family . franco : no , i 'm family ! i 'm family ! me ! in fact , i 'm probably the best chance this kid has at a match ! his father was my -- his father was my twin . morgan : i - i do n't know exactly -- franco : so nobody asks me . nobody thinks to ask me . morgan : i do n't know . franco : kid 's life is at stake , and nobody asks me ? morgan : i do n't -- franco : nobody thinks that i 'm capable of having compassion for a dying little child ? ! you know what ? i 'm going to the hospital . i 'm gon na go to the hospital , and i 'll prove them all wrong .

[ scene_break ] alexis : it probably never occurred to skye that this might not work , and why would it ? i mean , it stands to reason that if she puts me face to face with alcazar 's twin brother that i 'm going to lose it and be carted off to a loony bin , and meanwhile , then she can help herself to my daughter . but i kept my cool , and now maybe we have what we need to convince judge farmer that the therapy is working , so i 'm going to call her right now . cameron : do n't you dare dial that phone .

[ scene_break ] skye : my plan to expose alexis by confronting her with alcazar 's brother was brilliant . the only thing we did n't count on was the fact that cameron was so willing to cover for her . ned : oh . well , you ca n't think of everything . skye : oh , you know , i will never understand that woman 's appeal , i swear . but not to worry . we will take care of the good doctor . no , the main objective now is to get alexis to admit that she faked the d.i.d . in such a way that we can bring it to judge farmer . ned : look at you . your eyes are blazing , your cheeks are flushed , and even your hair seems to be tingling with energy . you just love the heat of battle , do n't you ? skye : am i supposed to apologize for that ? i do n't ever recall pretending i did n't . ned : i guess it 's just the first time i 've ever seen you up close , in full throttle . you 're relentless . you have no limits . you will say or do anything to make sure that alexis loses custody of her baby . skye : she 's your baby , too , ned . ned : it 's nice to know you remember . skye : he 'll thank me later . yes , this is skye quartermaine . i need to speak to the district attorney right away . well , then call his cell phone . tell him this is urgent .

[ scene_break ] ned : i just saw scott baldwin leave , so i can pretty much guess what he was doing here . you are just determined -- absolutely determined to cause more trouble for alexis , are n't you ? skye : do you mean , am i doing everything in my power to keep kristina away from that lying , murdering , cross - dressing psychopath ? you 're damn straight . what is wrong with you ? i should think you 'd be happy about this . i just made a deal with scott baldwin to grant you full custody of kristina at the end of all this . ned : but at what cost ? skye : i 'm sorry , but i do not write the laws . alexis killed a man in cold blood , ok ? she premeditated , then went to elaborate lengths to cover it up after the fact . now , if a court says she needs to be punished for that , i 'm not going to cry over it . she brought this on totally by herself . ned : skye , i 'm part of this , too . and my goals are n't necessarily the same as yours . so you better be very careful about what lines you cross . skye : all right . well , then i guess you have a decision to make . just understand this . my whole reason for doing this is to protect kristina . that 's why i 'm going to expose alexis , whether you like it or not . [ scene_break ] mac : i -- i ca n't believe this . georgie 's run off with this kid , and you were going to keep it from me ? where did they go ? maxie : i do n't know . look , mac , just let this go , ok ? let georgie have some fun . mac : fun ? maxie : she 's upset , mac ! georgie 's been grounded practically the entire summer . and she did n't even do anything wrong . i did . and look , she did n't leave without letting me know she 's ok . she 's being responsible , just like she always is . kyle : uh , hello ? my bike was stolen . i want it back . put out an a.p.b . or something . maxie : no , that 's crazy . there 's no reason . georgie is not a criminal , kyle . mac : i have to deal with this . maxie : look , you 've beaten up dillon twice now . is n't that enough ? ca n't you just leave him alone ? kyle : i 'm blown away . you 're actually going to defend that loser ? maxie : i have to , ok ? he 's in love with my sister . [ scene_break ] dillon : what ? what ? georgie : nothing . it 's -- dillon : well , wait a minute . if there 's anything that i did that you do n't like , you need to let me know , because -- georgie : no , no , no , dillon , dillon , i swear , it 's -- this whole living - in- the - moment stuff , it 's all new to me . i ca n't help thinking about -- about the plan . i mean , do we even have a little one ? like , how we 're going to eat ? dillon : well , yeah . i mean , i 've got some cash put away . and thanks to my mom , we 've got a lot of plastic , which is going to last us a really long time if we 're smart , so -- georgie : ok . well , we 've got a couple months before we have to get back home for school , so -- dillon : home ? um -- port charles is n't home to me . georgie : well , not technically , but you were planning to go back , right ? dillon : yeah . yeah , i 'll take you back whenever you want . better ? georgie : i 'm a little scared . dillon : come here . come here .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : i do n't understand . i thought you hated sonny . ric : i -- i did . i -- i do . it 's just not -- it 's not clean , you know ? the hate is wrapped up with so many other things , you know -- anger and loss . i mean , not just the loss of my mother , but i lost sonny , too . [ scene_break ] sonny : what ? [ scene_break ] ric : i find out that i have this big brother who 's a powerful and an influential man . and then i finally find him , and he -- he hates me . no , actually , he thinks that i 'm -- that i 'm less than nothing . so the hate started all over again . blackmailing carly and doing all the other crazy things that i did , you know , just seemed worth it . did n't work , though . sonny loathes me , now more than ever . i wish i did n't care , but i do . elizabeth : does n't surprise me . i know the kind of man you are . ric : you are so precious to me , you know that ? no other woman would have put up with all the things that i 've done . that 's why i was afraid to tell you that i had n't let this whole thing go about sonny . i was afraid you would n't want to take that last step with me . am i right , elizabeth ? [ scene_break ] sonny : you have to admit , it makes a twisted kind of sense . ever since ric showed up in town to martha 's vineyard , he 's done nothing but try to prove himself to me . it goes with everything else he 's done . jason : unless he 's lying again . [ next_on ] georgie : i feel closer to you than anyone else in my family . mac : do n't move . emily : i have breast cancer . lucky : i 'm so sorry , em . you fell in love with emily for real . carly : you and i were friends once . ric : i like being your friend . sonny : what do you want ? edward : my great - grandson michael . | skye called scott to the q 's and told him that alexis was dobson . he told her that she and ned were guaranteed full custody of kristina if she could prove alexis really murdered louise . |

[ elizabeth and patrick laugh ] [ scene_break ] sam : so , does that mean you forgive me ? alexis : there 's nothing to forgive you for . you 're my daughter , sam . you 've been put through a horrible ordeal and you 're in a lot of pain and i want you to know that i am going to be here for you and i 'm going to help you through it , all right ? alexis : all right . i think you 've been through enough , huh ? let 's get you home . sam : that sounds good . alexis : i 'll just grab this . here we go . good . glad you 're here . ric : everything all right ? alexis : yeah . everything 's all right . sam 's going to come stay with us . sam : yeah , i 'm -- if that 's okay with you . [ scene_break ] carly : you got to stop . all right ? you got to stop because max is doing nothing but trying to help you , okay ? sonny : you -- you 're defending max now ? maybe it just does n't go , you know , one way . maybe you came on to max and you guys have been doing it behind my back . carly : sonny , come on . sonny : why am i not surprised ? i mean , were -- you know -- where does it start ? i mean , with a.j . and then jason and then alcazar , then tony jones ? was he the last man in port charles you could sleep with ? jason : sonny . this has to stop . carly : jason , what are you doing here ? you 're not well enough to leave the hospital . jason : i 'm okay . carly : no , you 're not okay . i told you i can take care of sonny . sonny : i do n't need anybody to babysit me . take jason back to the hospital . jason : i 'll agree to go back to the hospital if you agree to get help . [ scene_break ] dillon : are you okay ? lulu : i do n't know why people make such a big deal about the first time because the second time is so much better . dillon : good answer ! i was getting kind of worried there because you were less than enthusiastic the first time . lulu : well , i did n't expect to sleep with you the first time , and you were really sorry afterwards . dillon : no , wait . no , wait a minute . that was -- i was sorry for my losses with -- with georgie . i mean , she was the love of my life and i trusted her and i ca n't -- i ca n't get that back , but -- but i was not sorry for being with you , then or now . lulu : i do n't want to be sorry , either . tracy : oh , my god ! [ scene_break ] sam : i have been hostile to you from the start out of my loyalty for jason . he did n't like you , so i went out of my way to be difficult even after i had moved in . ric : okay , it 's been a big adjustment for all of us . sam : i know , i know . i just -- i do n't want to make excuses . i 'm going to be moving in your house , not the other way around , so if you do n't feel comfortable with me there , i 'd like you to be honest or , you know -- ric : no , it 's not your fault you adopted jason 's hatred of me . sam : right , i just want to take responsibility for my actions , that 's all . ric : right . all i want is a chance for us to have a relationship on our own terms , yeah . alexis : great . oh , good . sam : yeah . alexis : that 's good . settled , then , and kristina 's going to be really happy to see you . mayor floyd : miss davis , i 'm glad i caught you . alexis : i was just on my way out . mayor floyd : we need to discuss how to spin the manny ruiz case . alexis : maybe we can discuss that first thing in the morning . mayor floyd : fine . that 'll give me plenty of time to hang you out to dry with the press . [ alexis sighs ] ric : you know what ? you and mayor floyd obviously need a clarification session . i 'm going to take sam home . do n't work too late , okay ? sam : bye . alexis : see you in a bit . mayor floyd : you know , your qualifications as a jurist notwithstanding , your family ties are becoming increasingly awkward . alexis : my family is not open for discussion . as far as the manny ruiz case ; no spin , no press . the case is closed and my highest recommendation is that you leave it alone . [ scene_break ] patrick : why should i waste my time on patients who do n't respect my surgical skills ? elizabeth : uh - oh . did someone disrespect dr. patrick drake ? patrick : morgan checked himself out of the hospital . elizabeth : what ? but it 's too soon . patrick : well , exactly what 's indicated on his chart . obviously , he elected to not listen to his doctors . elizabeth : but did n't somebody call you before he left ? patrick : why would he listen to me ? i 'm only the guy that stitched up an artery two seconds before he was about to bleed out . look , the signature 's right there . jason knows if that artery opens up , he 's going to bleed to death . obviously , he does n't care . elizabeth : tell epiphany i 'm taking some comp time . patrick : where are you going ? elizabeth : to find jason , to get him back in the hospital . patrick : look , no disrespect , elizabeth , but if he does n't listen to his doctors , what makes you think he 'd listen to you ? [ scene_break ] carly : can you wait outside ? and do n't let anyone in . max : yeah , sure , mrs. c. i 'll have milo get the car ready just in case . carly : thank you . okay , sit down . the last thing we need is for you to be bleeding all over the place . sonny : you want to lock me up ? jason : i want to sit here , get through this . it 'll pass -- it always does . sonny : i do n't need you here . i do n't need anybody here . jason : what happened to your hand ? sonny : a broken frame . i was just trying to clean it up . jason : cut yourself ? look , i ca n't leave you with carly and max anymore . sonny : carly and max are doing it , you know that , right ? jason : no , sonny . there is nothing going on between carly and max and you know that . sonny : i do n't want carly here . i want -- i want her to go . carly : jason 's not strong enough to take care of you , sonny . jason : she 's right . i mean , if you were to come after me , i would n't be able to defend myself . sonny : why would i come after you , jason ? jason : well , i do n't know . why do you do anything when you 're like this ? [ sonny sighs ] carly : sonny , you 've been really sick and rose lawn might help . it 's a nice place ; the doctors can take care of you . they can give you some medicine to calm you down . sonny : i do n't want medicine . jason : okay , then we need to figure something out . sonny : oh . i ca n't breathe in a place like that . and i 'll fight you if you try to stick me in there . jason : hey .

[ scene_break ] alexis : here 's what i think -- the less said about manny ruiz to the press , the better , because the minute he took off his ankle bracelet , from that point on , he has made the police look absolutely ridiculous . mayor floyd : yeah , well , he 'd still be sitting on death row if you had n't gotten him a suspended sentence . alexis : which is no longer an issue because ruiz is dead . he was shot by a police officer in the line of duty . you see , the system works -- that 's a good thing . let 's move on . mayor floyd : is that what you want to spin ? alexis : i want you to say anything that 'll make this case go away . the man is dead and i suggest you let the story die with it . mayor floyd : all right , look . it 's true -- mistakes were made from the very beginning , starting with you . but everyone 's behavior in this case will not stand up to very close scrutiny , so how do we present this to the public ? alexis : you focus , keep the focus on lucky spencer . you make a speech at his promotional ceremony , you talk about how the streets are safer , you do whatever you want . but as far as this office is concerned , this case is closed . mayor floyd : okay . what about your airtight case against jason morgan for killing escobar ? alexis : i will quietly drop the charges . mayor floyd : oh , they were trumped up to begin with . alexis : i forced manny 's hand in an effort to save my daughter and you know that . mayor floyd : yeah , so why are you letting morgan off the hook now ? because he helped catch manny ruiz or maybe because he happens to be your daughter 's fiancé ? alexis : because there is no evidence to connect him to the murder of juan escobar . my dropping the charges against jason had absolutely nothing to do with my daughter . [ scene_break ] sam : it 's hard to believe that manny took me away from this place only a few days ago . i mean , it just feels like years already . ric : yeah , well , good thing it 's all over . it must 've been awful being manny 's captive . sam : yeah , i mean , it was -- it was terrifying thinking that i could die at any minute , but i had options and i used them . ric : yeah , well , that phone call you made probably saved your life . sam : i understand what happened with manny . i will get over that and move on , but jason ? no , i do n't think i 'll ever understand that , why he broke up with me , how he could claim to love me one minute and not the next . unless - unless he never really loved me at all . [ scene_break ] carly : you know , maybe it was n't such a good idea letting him go up there to clean up alone . if he 's not back soon , you 're going to have to go up there and check on him . jason : carly , he 's going to be all right . carly : what about you ? i can take care of sonny . you need to go back to the hospital , jason . jason : no . carly : what if he flips out and comes after you ? i have never seen him this bad . jason : you did great taking care of him . are you okay ? [ carly sighs ] carly : he kissed me . i went along with it , you know , and it caused a big fight and whatever . he keeps talking about drowning and i just kept telling him to hold on . jason : i 'm glad you were here for him . carly : yeah , i did the best i could . jason : no , you -- you came through like i knew you would . carly : you owe me big time , you know . jason : you 're right , i do . carly : i got to get out of here . i need to go check on the boys and shower and clean up . jason : wait , wait . carly : if you need anything , call me . jason : just tell the boys that -- that their dad is going to be okay . max : hey . carly : hey . max : milo went after the car . carly : okay . thank you .

[ scene_break ] sonny : how much longer you planning on doing it ? putting your life on hold , walking out of the hospital just to sit with me ? jason : i 'm all right . sonny : no , you 're not . what have i done to deserve this ? i turned my back on you . whew . here you are . why do n't you just cut your losses ? jason : because you 're sick . do you think i would just walk away ? sonny : sick or no sick , does n't take away that i lied to the police to have you arrested . i put a hit on you . now 's your chance to -- to pay me back . why do n't you ?

[ scene_break ] sam : go ahead . tell the world that i watched jake spencer being kidnapped . and while you 're at it , make sure you tell the world that jason morgan is the baby 's real father . i think it 's about time the truth comes out , do n't you ? amelia : you 're right . why go down alone when you can take lucky and elizabeth 's marriage with you ? i mean , he 'll be devastated , of course , but at least two people will have a happy ending . elizabeth will follow her heart straight to jason . he 'll be free -- assuming he 's out of prison -- to have the family he 's always wanted . sam : you have no idea what jason wants . amelia : if it 's a choice between a loving mother of his only child and the deceitful bitch who stood by and watched his little boy get kidnapped , how long do you think it 's going to take jason to make up his mind ? even if jason has to spend the rest of his life in prison , at least he 'll know jake will be provided for . when the truth comes out , no doubt jake will get all of jason 's money , and you 'll be left broke and homeless . unless , of course , you think your mother will be willing to take you in after she learns that you facilitated a kidnapping . sam : okay , shut up ! carly : wow . artistic differences ? amelia : would you like to update carly , or should i ? okay , then -- turns out sam actually knew more -- sam : i will update her . i blew off a shoot today , even though i knew amelia already paid for the location . carly : wow , it 's nice to see jason 's not the only one you 're taking advantage of . sam : i will be in work on time tomorrow . okay ? amelia : you sure about that ? sam : yeah , i 'm sure about that . the job you hired me for -- i 'll be there . see you then . amelia : wise choice . carly : you better hold on to that job . when jason gets back , he 's going to kick you out of here . sam : i do n't know what fantasy world you 're living in , but i 'm not going anywhere .

[ scene_break ] patrick : you okay ? robin : yeah , why ? patrick : well , you just tore into lucky in front of his wife and half the staff . thought you only saved that for me . robin : yeah , well , i made an exception . i 'm sorry , but you do n't throw someone in jail after they save your child . i mean , you say thank you , and you look the other way . patrick : what if the person in question is charged with murder ? robin : look , i 'm not defending who jason is or what he does for a living . but he put himself on the line to rescue a child , and he does not deserve to be locked up for that . patrick : so it 's the rescuing of the child that 's got you all fired up ? robin : no . a long time ago , michael corinthos was kidnapped . i found out that tony jones was behind it , and i went to him to try and talk him into giving michael back . but tony was in a really bad place then , and there was just no reasoning with him . if jason had n't shown up when he did , i would have died of pneumonia . patrick : so jason saved you ? robin : i still remember how it felt . i mean , i was too weak to even sit up . he put me in his arms and he carried me out . i do n't know -- maybe that 's why i went off on lucky , because -- say what you will about jason , but he is a good person , and he did an amazing thing . patrick : you know , it surprises me the way you talk about jason . i mean , at carly and jax 's wedding , you guys did n't say two words to each other . robin : well , we have different lives . does n't mean that i do n't care about him and what happens to him . patrick : hmm . robin : in a very platonic , nonsexual way , of course . patrick : yes , of course . robin : so you can just stop getting jealous , because you have absolutely nothing to worry about .

[ scene_break ] diane : you need a better alibi . spinelli : but i was -- i was with him . it 's the truth . diane : you are what is known as , in legal parlance , a biased witness , mr. spinelli . so who else can account for your whereabouts last night ? and for god 's sake , do n't say carly . jason : that 's who i was with last night , carly , spinelli , and robin , for at least 20 minutes . diane : good , good . excellent . in fact , a pregnant doctor . that will play brilliantly on the witness stand if this thing ever gets to trial . jason : why -- why would this go to trial ? i did n't kill logan hayes , diane . diane : and as thrilled as i am to hear that , that 's irrelevant . you are going to be a prime suspect , because a ) logan hayes worked for the zaccharas , b ) you have been known to do visible violence to mr. hayes , especially since he started beating up mr. spinelli , and c ) logan hayes was briefly employed by corinthos - morgan , where he failed miserably as a bodyguard for the corinthos children . spinelli : that was months ago . jason : yeah , and none of it is motive for murder . diane : there is a history of violence between you and the deceased , and given that your arrest and conviction will effectively neutralize the corinthos crime family , the police are going to want to question you , probably even charge you . spinelli : then for stone cold 's protection , we must ascertain who really did kill logan hayes . [ scene_break ] maxie : no , you can not do that . you can not call the cops . you ca n't do that to me , or johnny , or claudia , for that matter . we helped you cover this up . [ scene_break ] johnny : getting the door fixed and keeping it quiet is complicated enough . it 's a miracle that none of the neighbors heard logan busting the door down and they did n't call the cops . i 'm just saying that pulling the carpet up and dragging it out of here right now is a little obvious . claudia : yeah , but it 's better than having the dead guy 's bloodstain under the throw rug . [ scene_break ] lulu : i did n't ask anybody to cover up for me . maxie : the time to mention that would have been last night . lulu : yeah , well , i was shocked , okay ? logan smashed through the door with an ax . he completely flipped out . i did n't mean to kill him . i just -- i wanted to hold him off . maxie : `` i did n't mean to do it `` is not the best defense . [ scene_break ] johnny : for all the cops know , logan could have died in a bar fight . he had a short fuse , and he was very combative , and not just with me . claudia : johnny , you -- you just got into a very public brawl with the guy , given the fact that you have a history and you both dated the same girl . we can pretty much assume the cops are going to make a suspect out of you , so if they get a search warrant and they come in here , it 's -- it 's better that they find a new carpet than one with evidence that logan died here . [ scene_break ] maxie : you already put logan in a coma by cracking his skull with a pipe wrench , and you used the same excuse that you did n't mean to do it . lulu : because i did n't . i cared about logan , not the way that he wanted , but i would never intentionally hurt him , much less kill him . maxie : but you did , and i have no doubt that johnny and his sister have spent the entire night covering up evidence . lulu : i never asked johnny to . he just told claudia that he 's the one that killed logan . maxie : lulu , if johnny wants to cover for you , do n't you think we should let him ? [ scene_break ] claudia : johnny , the cops can suspect you all they want . they ca n't actually arrest you unless they have physical proof . the best thing to do here is just stay cool . be calm . do not volunteer any information to anyone . johnny : i can handle this . claudia : yeah , i 'm not so worried about you as i am about lulu and maxie . i do n't like having your life in their hands . [ scene_break ] maxie : if we both keep our mouth shut , we can pull this off . lulu : do you even care that logan 's dead ? because i do , and maybe i do n't want to pull this off . [ knock on door ] mac : maxie , it 's me . we need to talk .

[ scene_break ] morgan : i -- i 'm sorry . do i know you ? brad : regrettably , no . but i know your brother and his cousin -- kiki . you and i should probably talk . morgan : about them ? brad : yeah . see , the thing about michael and kiki is that -- michael : i 've been tested , and , uh ... kiki 's next in line as possible donors . i see what you 've got there , brad , but morgan and i have different fathers , so he 's not related to danny . kiki : right . so you do n't need to talk to him about being a donor , because he 's no more likely to be a match than anyone else in this world . morgan : yeah , i 'm sorry . i wish i could help you there . assuming that 's what you meant . [ scene_break ] sam : danny is n't due for another treatment until next week . silas : i meant rafe . sam : okay . now i 'm a little bit confused . silas : look , the custody problems , they 've -- they 've worked themselves out . i 'm not going anywhere , all right ? i 'm working at general hospital . there 's no reason why the kid ca n't move in with me now . sam : now ? like , now ? silas : now . why not ? sam : because you do n't have a place to live . silas : i 'll find one . sam : but -- i -- i do n't get it . where is rafe supposed to sleep ? on the floor of your hotel -- silas : i do n't want to argue about this ! i 've made up my mind ! sam : but this does n't make any sense to me ! it does n't make any sense . you 've been so reasonable about rafe during this whole danny situation . you have actually been acting like a human being . and now , all of a sudden , you 're gon na revert back to this arrogant jerk that i met in new york . what has changed ? silas : nothing 's changed . sam : nice try . somebody pissed you off , and it was n't me . [ scene_break ] tracy : let me guess -- your reunion with my serial - killer nephew did n't work out , not that i expected more when i heard you were shacking up with him in alan 's house . ava : mm . monica 's house . tracy : oh . does she have it monogrammed on the hand towels ? it was alan 's house . he gave it to her . and the only reason she is allowing you to squat here with franco is out of deference to alan . ava : well , thank you , sir alan . you did me a solid . tracy : so , what did franco do ? use your blood to tag a bus ? ava : [ chuckles ] who said i was talking about franco ? [ scene_break ] sonny : calm down , alexis . no one 's gon na hurt you . alexis : forgive me if i 'm not convinced . sonny : all you got to do is walk out the door and just forget whatever you saw here . alexis : yeah . so you can kill him ? you 've more than half accomplished that . and , what -- this is the higher calling you were telling me about ? you break up our relationship , because you ca n't give up this ? shawn : okay , dial down the outrage for a minute . think about who this man is ! remember what he did to your daughter . franco : i did n't do that . i did n't rape -- sonny : i told you to shut up ! franco : okay , okay . sonny : did sam tell you what he did to michael ? he made him a target for some freak in pentonville ! and then he said he was trying to protect michael . he did n't mean for my son to get raped ! you think i 'm gon na allow that predator to walk around ? ! i am not doing that ! alexis : you do n't get to decide that ! the court does ! you do n't get to ride around and dispense your vigilante justice ! sonny : he 's an animal ! nobody cares if he lives or dies ! alexis : i care ! because if you kill him , you could be killing my grandson , too ! [ scene_break ] britt : are you once again accusing me of lying ? sabrina : you know what ? forget it . i should n't have even said anything . britt : no . you know what ? i 've had it with your accusations , sabrina . had it . patrick : can we not do this here , please ? britt : why not ? because we work here , or because the two of you want to continue making out in front of patients ? patrick : no , because this is between the three of us , not everybody involved here . britt : it does n't matter . everyone knows our dirty laundry by now . why not keep them informed ? for the record , sabrina , each and every one of your insulting theories about me has been proven wrong . this is patrick 's baby . i did have hyperemesis gravidarum , and my labs will confirm that my condition has improved , and i 'm no longer on bed rest . sabrina : okay . will these labs be run by your little buddy brad ? britt : oh , and who would you prefer ? the not - so - irreproachable ellie trout , who went behind my back to run a paternity test using my blood samples without my permission ? i will match my supposed shadiness to yours any day of the week . patrick : please , this is getting out of hand . britt : really , why do you feel the need to keep after me , sabrina ? you won . you have the guy . i have no one . you call me a bitch , but i 'm not the one kicking someone when she 's down . patrick , i hope emma enjoys the doll . [ scene_break ] silas : i want my nephew , all right ? that 's what the court ordered . sam : how do you think rafe 's gon na like it , being taken away without any notice ? silas : what 's the right amount of notice , sam ? an hour , a day , a week ? what does it matter ? sam : i do n't know . maybe you could try spending a little bit of time with him first . silas : it 'll happen when i raise him . sam : are you serious ? take him out to dinner or ... have a cup of coffee with him . silas : oh , what is it with everybody wanting to grab coffee ? ! sam : do you get that you are totally being irrational , blowing up at me about some coffee ? come on . what 's really bothering you ? [ scene_break ] ava : i have no interest in opening up to you . tracy : why not ? truth be told ... of all the people residing under this roof ... you are the one i despise the least . ava : [ chuckles ] tracy : so , spill . ava : i ran into someone earlier . tracy : someone of the ex variety ? ava : yep . [ scene_break ] silas : she just came out of nowhere . sam : who ? silas : someone i used to know . [ scene_break ] ava : someone i have n't seen in years . [ scene_break ] brad : actually , morgan ... that 's exactly what i meant . i thought you were here to be tested . ms. jerome , i will be back shortly to conduct your swab test . michael , i still need you to sign a few forms on your way out . walk with me . morgan : hey . is everything okay ? you seem kind of weirded out . kiki : i 'm fine . i 'm just worried about my cousin . that 's all . brad : i held up my end . now it 's time for you ... to hold up yours . [ scene_break ] laura : the only reason i said yes to this whole deal was because we were going to be completely equal partners . that means total transparency . i mean , just because you call your company deception , it does n't mean that you get to deceive me . lucy : laura , you 're overreacting . laura : i 'm not overreacting at all . i am trying to voice a -- lucy : why do n't you just look in the binder and see how -- laura : you 're just totally dismissing it . i 'm not over -- scott : well , it 's good to see the partnership 's off to a great start . [ scene_break ] nikolas : uh , it 's britt , right ? yeah ? britt : yeah , hi . hi , nikolas . it 's nice to see you again . nikolas : you too . um ... i 'm sorry , but you do n't look any less upset than ... you did at the fireworks . you okay ? is the baby okay ? britt : uh , the kid 's fine , yeah . nikolas : well , you certainly look like you could use someone to talk to . britt : it 's ... just the baby 's father . we just had an argument , and things got ugly . nikolas : well , i mean , you know , a lot of couples argue during pregnancies . it 's a stressful time . britt : yeah , we 're not a couple . that 's the problem . i love him , and he will never love me back . [ scene_break ] morgan : you know , i think it 's great that you 're worried about danny . i do n't mean that , you know , it 's great that you 're worried . i just mean it 's great that you 're feeling a connection to your family . kiki : sure am . what are you doing here , captain ? morgan : i wanted to surprise you ... with this . kiki : you got me something ? that 's so sweet . morgan : open it . kiki : a compass ? morgan : yeah . listen , you 're the only one i want to roam around the world with . kiki jerome . i mean , we might as well know how to get there , right ? and how to find each other if we get lost . [ scene_break ] michael : uh , brad , look , there must be some kind of deal we can work out , right ? what do you want ? what do you want ? money ? i got a ton of it . brad : michael , michael , michael . we 've already covered this . i do n't want your money , honey . you know my price -- you spend one night with me . that 's all my silence is gon na cost you . [ scene_break ] kiki : morgan , this must have cost you a fortune . morgan : do n't worry about it . only the best for you , right ? kiki : okay . but how did you ... you 're gambling again , are n't you ? morgan : no ! no , no , no , no , no . i promise , that is over . kiki : then where did you get the money to pay for it ? [ scene_break ] ava : i was pretty green when i moved to the city . lots of ambition . but not quite enough brains to back it up . and then i met this guy . [ scene_break ] silas : this woman ... there was something about her . her energy -- i could n't get enough of it . [ scene_break ] ava : we spent every moment we could together . very quickly , the relationship became passionate . [ scene_break ] silas : intense . [ scene_break ] ava : i thought i was gon na spend the rest of my life with him . when i found out that was n't gon na happen ... i did n't handle it well . tracy : why did n't you end up with him ? [ scene_break ] silas : she meant everything to me . but then it all went to hell ... like things always do . sam : what went wrong ? [ scene_break ] alexis : danny may need a bone - marrow transplant . sam and i are looking for a match . we are testing every blood relative . he happens to be jason 's twin , which is danny 's best chance . are you following me now ? i need this bastard to live . franco : [ coughs ] thank you so much . shawn : hey , look , we were n't gon na kill him , alexis . alexis : oh , thank god for your restraint . sonny : alexis , just stay out of this , will you , please ? alexis : i need you to let him go . sonny : what ? alexis : i need you to let him get tested . franco : okay . alexis ? i appreciate the sentiment . that 's really ... that 's very thoughtful of you . however ... i ... do not remember agreeing ... to be tested for anything . [ scene_break ] sabrina : she 's got a point . i am kicking her when she 's down . patrick : okay . do n't be so hard on yourself . [ breathes deeply ] britt has given us plenty of reasons to not trust her . you only said what we were both thinking . sabrina : yeah , but i should take my own advice . i make this big show for emma about trying to be more accepting of the baby and of britt , and then i turn around and ... accuse her of lying again . [ scene_break ] britt : and when i realized i had a kid on the way , the father was already involved with the woman he wanted in the first place . and i thought that my pregnancy might get him back , but it did n't . nikolas : so , what ? he abandoned you ? britt : no . he 's been supportive of my baby and of my pregnancy , but that 's it . nikolas : well , i mean , i can relate to that . see , the woman i love , um ... well , it 's kind of a difficult relationship . we were living on different continents for over a year , and by the time i got back , she had already moved on , so i guess we kind of got a similar situation going on . britt : mm . except you 're not eight months pregnant . nikolas : [ laughing ] no , that 's true . i 'm not . but i do know what it 's like to have to let go of someone that your heart really wants , especially if you think that they 're making a mistake with someone else . listen , if these people ca n't see what a catch we are , then they just need to get over it , right ? yeah , see ? there we go . see ? things are looking up already . [ scene_break ] franco : mm . sonny : franco is a monster , alexis , that would let a child die . why would you want to protect him ? franco : i never said that i would n't get tested . just ... it 's nice to be asked . that 's all . alexis : will you please get tested ? franco : of course . alexis : thank you . franco : i do n't know why this is so hard for everyone to understand . i do n't know why i did the things that i did back then . i am doing everything i can to try and make things right ! i owe a lot of people in this town ... especially your daughter . [ scene_break ] sam : well , what went wrong between you and this woman ? silas : how 's danny ? any sign of fever ? sam : wow ! that was -- that was some sort of a pivot there . and you did n't even go back to rafe . does that mean that you 're not gon na force him into living with you right now ? silas : do you want me to check on danny or not ? sam : i see . you think that you share too much , so now you 're gon na shut down . silas : i 'm just concerned about my patients . that 's all . sam : okay . the last time i checked , his temperature was normal , but he is about to get up from a nap . i 'll go get him for you . silas : thank you . sam : you 're welcome . [ scene_break ] ava : why does any relationship fail ? one minute , this person 's your entire world ... and then , before you know it ... he 's gone ... leaving you to pick up his pieces . do you know what i mean ? [ breathes deeply ] tracy : i certainly do . [ scene_break ] lucy : instead of biting my head off for finding all the money and all the good stuff , you could at least act a little bit grateful . i think , scott , you should probably talk some sense into her , and i 'm gon na go clear my head by taking a little , tiny stroll . excuse me . scott : [ sighs ] laura : can you believe that woman ? scott : yeah , i can , but maybe she did a good thing for the company . laura : the company -- our company , you know ? we 're supposed to be doing things together . she just ran behind my back , did whatever she wanted , without telling me about it . scott : well , you got a point , and she probably should have said something to you , but maybe she 's saw an opportunity and she just grabbed it . is it possible you 're overreacting ? laura : possible . scott : what 's the matter ? is there something else on your mind ? laura : yeah . scott : you can tell me anything . laura : it 's luke . scott : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] ava : who 's this guy you 're hung up on ? tracy : [ clears throat ] someone i was once ... involved with . ava : and ? tracy : and he 's in trouble , and he wo n't let me help him , and i do n't know what to do about it . ava : hmm . that 's always how it is , huh ? it 's the ones you want to protect the most who push you away . [ scene_break ] kiki : morgan , this is obviously very expensive . you do n't have the kind of money to pay for this . if you did n't win it gambling , then how did you get it ? ava : i 'll work on kiki . in the meantime , you go and ... buy her something . morgan : slight problem with that . i do n't have any money or a credit card . ava : you can borrow one of mine . kiki does n't have to know . it 'll be our little secret . morgan : i -- i cashed in a savings bond that my grandma bobbie gave me for graduation . i know . romantic , right ? kiki : okay . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to accuse you . i just get worried . morgan : hey , hey , i get it . i get it . but , come on . i mean , do n't you like it ? kiki : of course , captain , i love it . i ... should n't you have used the money to pay back michael ? morgan : i wanted to do something nice for you . let me worry about michael . [ scene_break ] michael : okay , look -- if you 're looking to date somebody , i have plenty of friends i can set you up with . brad : i 'm not interested in them . i 'm interested in you . michael : well , that 's gon na happen , okay ? 'cause i 'm not gay . brad : i can work around that . michael : i ca n't . this is not gon na work . brad : oh , i promise you -- it 'll work . so , pick you up at 8 : 00 . kiki : hey , what happened with brad ? michael : uh , nothing . as far as what happens tonight at 8 : 00 , i have no clue . kiki : michael , you ca n't give in to him . are you kidding me ? it 's not worth it , okay ? michael : i do n't -- kiki : stop . we have to tell morgan the truth , okay ? even if it means that he 'll hate us . michael : he give that to you ? kiki : it does n't matter . michael : yeah , it does matter . you and i , we 're cousins , okay ? there 's no way we could ever be together , so there 's no reason to torpedo both of our relationships with morgan , as well . kiki : brad 's not going to give up . you ca n't spend the night with him , michael . michael : i do n't intend to . i 'm gon na go find him . kiki : and do what ? michael : i have no clue . i 'll figure something out . just wish me luck . kiki : good luck . [ scene_break ] scott : you 're upset about luke ? i thought we were past all of that . laura : we are . we are . it 's just that , i 'm worried about him . i think he 's sick . scott : what makes you say that ? laura : tracy quartermaine . [ scene_break ] tracy : why are men so pigheaded ? i had to drag him to the hospital when he got sick . and then we ran into people that we knew , and i covered for him . i let him tell them that it was me getting the tests , even though i thought he should be honest . ava : so , why 'd you do it ? tracy : some people you ca n't say no to , no matter how long it 's been . is that what it 's like for you ? ava : silas , wait . you ca n't just walk away from me ... not again .

[ scene_break ] maxie : i mean , all we were doing was sitting on the floor , chanting in protest . yes , it was a little annoying , but after everything i 've done for michael , you 'd think he could have shown a little more compassion . lulu : well , i 'm sure that michael did n't want you arrested . maxie : well , i did n't want michael to be arrested , either , which is why the night i unfortunately witnessed something i should n't have in regards to his stepmother 's death , i did n't call the police or make a statement . i stalled . i acted sick . i did anything i could possibly do to avoid being deposed . after what i did for him , you 'd think michael could overlook one teensy , tinesy protest with my boyfriend . lulu : maxie , did michael ask you to leave ? maxie : yes , michael asked me to leave . so did morgan . and that one girl who was married to one of them but is now dating the other -- kiki jerome -- she asked , too . but levi said it was a matter of conscience . lulu : `` levi said `` ? maxie : i said so , too . and then nathan showed up with two uniformed police officers , and before we knew it , levi was in custody for no good reason at all ! lulu : for trespassing . maxie : he was standing up for what was right . lulu : he was standing on private property . so were you . how did you not get arrested ? maxie : believe me -- nathan tried . we ended up spending the night together .

[ scene_break ] felix : rafe is the one who ran you off the road ? he 's the reason that sabrina went into labor early and that little gabriel did n't survive ? and you had to operate on him ? patrick : i was the only qualified surgeon that was available . obrecht insisted . felix : leave it to obrecht to put you through that . no wonder you look like hell . patrick : i 'm debating whether to tell sabrina or not . felix : juan said that she 's doing better . she sounds more like herself when we walk on the phone . but i do n't know whether knowing this would hurt her or help her . patrick : maybe we should n't . felix : i 'm so sorry , man . i do n't know what to say . patrick : thank you . [ scene_break ] brad : does that mean you still have feelings for me ? lucas : yes , i still have feelings for you , brad , but that 's not enough . brad : why not ? lucas : because i do n't know if i can ever trust you again after what you and britt did to lulu . that 's my cousin -- that 's my family -- you nearly destroyed . brad : but you can trust felix ? is that it ? lucas : that has nothing to do with any of this . this has to do with you hurting me . that 's why i ca n't be with you . it does n't have anything to do with how much time i spend with felix . brad : wait . so , there 's no part of either of you that wants to get back at me by jumping each other 's bones ? lucas : no ! no , brad ! that 's what you do . i 'm sorry . that was harsh . brad : but well earned . lucas : look , man , i wish that we could go back to that awesome guy that i met at the bar who just got me . i miss him . brad : i 'm still that guy . just let me prove it to you . lucas : [ sighs ] so much has happened , brad . i honestly do n't know if i can ever trust you again . i mean , i wish i could tell you that felix and i are just friends and nothing 's gon na happen , but i ca n't tell you that . yes , we 're just friends right now , but what i know of him already i like . he 's somebody who 's honest to a fault . he 's somebody who bends over backwards to help other people , even to his own detriment . brad : so , the anti - brad .

[ scene_break ] sam : i wanted to convince you to give up elq . i owe you a chance to come to your senses . i do n't give up on people easily , nikolas . like you said , we 're family . nikolas : i suppose that explains what you were doing on spoon island . that does n't explain what jake doe was doing there with you . sam : nikolas , i was at the docks waiting for the launch , and jake was there , and i told him i was coming up to see you one more time , and he asked to come with me . it 's just as well that you were n't there because , obviously , it would 've been a big waste of time . nikolas : sorry i kept you . tell danny i said hello . sam : yeah , i will consider that if you tell me what 's going on with you and hayden barnes . [ scene_break ] dante : it 's pretty simple , really . luke and laura went after lucky , and then lulu and dillon tagged along . the kidnappers said no cops , and luke said okay , so ... valerie : but you 're not just a cop , you 're lulu 's husband . dante : look , i do n't agree with all of lulu 's choices , but she 's not done with our marriage . she did n't cheat , i did . valerie : we did . it was mutual , remember ? dante : yeah , and it can never happen again . [ scene_break ] lulu : sonny went off on dillon about his supposed affair with me , which did not happen . i would appreciate it if you let sonny know that . carly : i will . i - i 'll tell sonny . i 'll tell him to call his men off dillon . lulu : sonny would n't really send his men after dillon , would he ? carly : no , i 'm just kidding . [ chuckles ] i think . [ scene_break ] dillon : look , i do n't agree with the lie , but luke felt he had to tell it . the point is that now my mom needs to know the truth . monica : and i 'm quite sure that when luke does find tracy , he will explain it to her in the most heroic and flattering of terms . dillon : well , i would like to stick around so my mother has me to lean on if she needs me , if that 's all right with you . monica : [ chuckling ] oh , right . listen , if i had my druthers , this whole house would be filled with nothing but quartermaines . sadly , there just are n't enough of us to go around anymore . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : my little boy was brain - dead . he was hooked up to life support . josslyn needed a kidney transplant , and so carly went to jason . he was grieving his own son , but she asked him to save her daughter . jake : that must 've been hell for them . and for you , too . elizabeth : lucky was jake 's legal father . jason had no parental rights , so he came to me and asked me if i would donate jake 's kidney . i just lost it . all i could hear was that he wanted to desecrate my son 's body for carly 's sake . i hit jason . i - i said all sorts of hateful things to him . i blamed him for not loving me enough , for not claiming his son . and , really , jason was the one that was able to put aside his own pain to save another child . i will always regret the way i treated him that night . [ scene_break ] lucky : how in the world did helena get jake ? luke : well , i think pretty much the same way she got you when you were living above jason 's garage . laura : oh . that fire . i guess helena and faison faked your death , right ? lucky : you saying she faked the car accident ? luke : no , i - i hit him . but that gave her the opportunity to move in and take him . she was -- she was in town trying to mess with aiden 's paternity test . lucky : right . she wanted everyone to believe that nikolas was aiden 's father . laura : so , it was n't enough for her to take aiden from you . she had to take little jake , too ? luke : she found out that he was in the hospital and then she sent one of her winged monkeys in to nab him . [ sighs ] that little boy 's been used as an instrument of torture against our whole family for so long now . laura : oh , my god . luke : but the important thing is he survived . lucky : proof is right there . luke : yeah . lucky : i mean , i -- i 'd know jake anywhere . he 's older , but he 's -- he 's exactly the same . same face . same personality . everything . laura : oh , honey . i 'm so happy for you . so happy . lucky : that 's why i had to go along with the kidnapping , because there was a chance that i would find him alive . here he is . we got to call elizabeth . let her know . laura : no , i do n't -- i - i - i think that 's the kind of news that a mother should get in person . she is going to want and need to see her son . i just think we should get him home . luke : yeah . the sooner , the better . let 's head for the boat . laura : no , wait , wait . uh ... this is the only home that little jake has known for the past five years . please , guys , let me talk to him . lucky : she 's right . i mean , this has -- this has got to be so crazy for him . laura : yes . really crazy , but ultimately good for him , and , really , for all of us . okay . hey . my name 's laura . do you know something ? i used to live here on this island a really long time ago , and i have n't visited in such a long time , i forgot where all the really cool , fun places are . do you think you could show me around ? jake : sure . laura : okay . thanks . come on . luke : how you holding up , cowboy ? lucky : i do n't know . i ca n't believe my son just ... just walked out the door holding mom 's hand . i was -- i was so afraid i was deluding myself . luke : i know . i had doubts of my own . lucky : but you backed me anyway . like you always do . thank you . luke : i can tell you honestly it was a pleasure . lucky : i just -- i do n't know what i 'm supposed to do . think i should -- i should go with them ? luke : no , no , no . i would n't do that , you know ? this is an awful lot for a little guy to take in . give him a little time . lucky : yeah , that 's better . luke : yeah . lucky : man , i wish i had a deck of cards . luke : well , are you in the mood for poker ? lucky : yeah . why not ? is n't that what you always used to say ? cards help focus the mind on the tangible . you know , a pair of jacks beats a pair of eights every single time . it 's just no question . it 's clear . there 's no confusion . luke : you liked poker because the rules never changed . they were clear . and you were good at it . you had a natural facility and a damn good poker face . lucky : well , i learned from the best . luke : well , you did a shady old gambler proud . lucky : [ chuckles ] man , all i ever wanted was to ... measure up to you . luke : oh , cowboy , aim higher . lucky : [ chuckles ] come on , man , there is -- there is no higher . i mean , you did n't just teach me how to cheat at cards . you taught me how to live . luke : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i would like to think that jason could hear me somehow , that he knows how truly sorry i am . jake : you know what i think ? i think if jason were here today , he would tell you you have nothing to feel sorry about . promise . elizabeth : that 's not true . jake : oh , honey , why would you say that ? elizabeth : [ sighs shakily ] there 's something i have to tell you .

[ footsteps approaching ] laura : we 're back . lucky : hey . jake : hi . lucky : hey . how you doing ? jake : good . laura : i just explained to little jake that we are all going to go back to port charles together . lucky : yeah , hey , man , your whole family is there . you -- you have an aunt , an uncle . you have an older brother , a younger brother , and your mom 's there . jake : i do n't have a mom . lucky : yes , you do . you do . her name is elizabeth , and she loves you very much . and we 're gon na take you to her . what do you say ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you do n't have to say you love me just because i said it to you . jake : no , no , no , no . i 'm saying it because i want to say it . i 'm saying it because i feel it . you were there for me the moment i opened my eyes , and we have had a connection ever since . when i could n't trust myself , i could trust you , and now i ... i 've got a family . i 've got love . i 've got a home . without you , i would n't have that . without you , i 'd be -- i 'd be nothing . do you understand me ? i love you . elizabeth : it means so much to me . jake : believe me , not half as much as it means to me . elizabeth : did n't you say you had plans ? jake : yeah , i did , but that 's okay . it can wait . it can wait . it can wait . you had a very long day . you need to relax . elizabeth : no , no , no . go , go , go , please . i - i , um -- i -- you do what you have to do . i just need -- i need to decompress . jake : you sure ? elizabeth : yeah . jake : okay . goodbye . hey . i love you . i 'll be back . elizabeth : okay . jake : you know , uh ...

[ scene_break ] alexis : the truth is , ric is determined to be a part of sonny 's life . i understand that . i think it 's a family connection that he wants -- he never had that . i think he also thinks that he can make a difference in sonny 's business . sam : well , sonny does n't have a business , so it should n't be an issue , right ? alexis : as long as it 's legit , i can give ric my blessings to do whatever he wants with his brother , but if sonny goes back to the mob , ric and i are going to end up on opposite sides of the law . that 's a problem . sam : have you spoken to ric about this ? alexis : a lot . i 'm lucky . i know how lucky i am -- i have a good husband . he loves me , he 's understanding , he 's patient , and i have absolutely no trouble reciprocating that . but on this particular issue , we do n't seem to be able to compromise . sam : have you ever considered quitting your job ? i mean , if it 's -- you know , if it 's such a conflict of interest . alexis : you mean quit my job -- my career , actually -- so that ric can get more involved in illegal activities and not feel threatened ? no . i 've never considered that . i do n't see where that has any integrity . sam : well , how about loyalty ? that must count for something . alexis : at what price ? i can see doing something like that possibly for a noble cause , but certainly not to accommodate a man 's ego or become a gun moll . sam : like me . alexis : i did n't say that . sam : oh , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry -- that was really unfair . i 'm just trying to come up with a way to alleviate the tension . that 's all . alexis : i did n't realize it was that obvious . sam : no , look , i really -- i really should n't have said anything . it 's not my place . alexis : yes , you have every right , sam . you live in this house with us . you 're bound to see things , and you have every right to say -- i want you to say something . i 'm not going to lie to you . i 'm -- i 'm glad sonny went legit , and i pray every night that he stays that way . and the fact that you and jason broke up , it -- it means perhaps that jason is going to stay where he is , which means that sonny will stay legit . sam : and that 's good for ric . alexis : it 's good for everybody . everybody 's safer . sam : yeah . and -- and i 'm safe , too , because i 'm not with jason anymore . alexis : are you not with him anymore ? i know how painful this is for you , sam . i know how much you hurt , and i know how hard you fought for jason . have you really given all that up ?

patrick : ha ha . this is hilarious . these medical assignments are really funny . did the new chief and ex - chief come up with these together ? robin : steve is running the er trauma unit , as you know , during his suspension , and it is my new responsibility to make the schedule . patrick : the first time , robin , it was mildly amusing when you gave me some bush - league procedure that an intern could do on their first day . but the fourth time -- this little prank 's getting a little old . robin : it 's not a prank . patrick : so you 're saying there 's nothing in this hospital that is deserving of my time and expertise . robin : i 'm saying that as acting chief of staff , that is my call , not yours .

[ scene_break ] brenda : i told you everything about the accident , and , um , exactly how it happened , so , um ... judge cole : you and your son were shot at , yet you maintain you were n't in danger ? brenda : no , i do n't maintain that . that 's the truth . judge cole : then that will be corroborated by the statement you gave to the police . and any forensic evidence collected at the scene . brenda : um , i do n't -- i do n't think you understand exactly what i 'm saying to you . there was an accident that happened on our property , and because no one was hurt , apparently we did n't report it to the police . judge cole : you may not be aware , but that opens the door to all kinds of charges . for the moment , however , we will focus on this custody hearing . at issue is the danger your husband poses to josslyn jacks . brenda : my husband is the most loving man that i have ever known . and he 's fiercely protective . and he puts his family and especially his children first . he would give his life for his children . so , in terms of this hearing , my husband is n't married to carly jacks . my husband is married to me . so he does n't spend enough time with carly to pose any kind of danger to josslyn . [ scene_break ] robin : if you thought that i was only going to keep steve 's seat warm and maintain the status quo while he 's on suspension -- patrick : did you just say status quo as in saving lives status quo ? you 'd better not let the board hear that . just to let you know , i have a proven track record . robin : you did n't always have that record . patrick : no , but i did n't get it by getting freebies and handouts . robin : this is not a freebie or a handout . this is an opportunity for the other surgeons to have more challenging cases . patrick : you just said that the patient deserves the best care possible . that is me . robin : ok . what if you have too many cases or you 're not here and a really difficult one comes up ? patrick : then those other cutters get their opportunity then . robin : an opportunity that only comes around when you 're on a , i do n't know , nascar weekend . i want to improve quality patient care by raising the bar by giving those surgeons more opportunities . patrick : robin , that plan sounds great on paper , but in the real world where there 's lives on the line , that 's not gon na happen . i am better , i am faster , which means the patient gets better care . robin : are you sure you 're fighting for the patients ? patrick : how dare you say that ? robin : i mean , you know , you do have a big ego . maybe you 're afraid matt and morucci will show you up ? patrick : i 'm not afraid of competition . robin : good .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : ok , you 're gon na be a good friend and pretend that you did n't hear any of that . robin : i am happy that you admitted that you still love lucky . elizabeth : he 's married . robin : that was a green card wedding . he married her to keep her in the country . elizabeth : i think he really likes her . robin : well , lucky is a good guy . if he makes a commitment -- but , if she follows through with this malpractice suit , she will be on the next boat to ireland . trust me . elizabeth : and it 's like you said -- it 's no secret that i will always love him . and now he 's aiden 's father , and it just so happened that his wife showed up on the operating table and i 'm assisting in the surgery . is it really that big of a leap to imagine that i could have -- robin : is it that big of a leap that you , what , drank the same water as lisa niles and all of a sudden you 're a crazy ex trying to kill his wife ? yes , that is a huge leap . that is grand canyon - esque , ok ? you 're making it sound reasonable that this woman is suing you . elizabeth : i 'm just acknowledging that i was at fault and that it was a terrible , terrible mistake . robin : made all the more complicated because of lucky . and if siobhan loves him , which i guess she does , she 's probably jealous of you . she sees exactly what everyone sees , that you will always love lucky , and he will always love you .

[ scene_break ] carly : i should have realized how far jax would go to win . while i 'm sitting here trying to compromise , he 's sharpening his knife so he can stick it in my back . jason : you ca n't blame yourself for what happened in there . carly : the judge only heard half the story . he did n't hear how much sonny and i love our kids . he only heard the bad , and i had to stop him . we did n't need to hear that . sonny : this is important . when were you notified who the mediator was gon na be ? carly : two weeks ago . sonny : how many times did you meet with this grace ? carly : just the once . jason : one time and she based her opinion on that ? carly : she said she was reviewing the various depositions . sonny : put your feelings aside . do you really believe that she genuinely thought that josslyn was better off with jax ? carly : she never came to see josslyn once . she had no idea about her living environment . she never had one conversation with michael , but she said he was an unstable felon . there is no way that she can make an objective decision to say that josslyn was better off with jax . sonny : take carly home , will you ? carly : oh , wait a second . this is my daughter , sonny . if you 're gon na do something , i want to know about it and i want to help . sonny : you got ta trust me . i 'm gon na make this right .

[ scene_break ] patrick : i thought you 'd be with rafe . sam : i was , but silas wanted to be alone with him ... to say goodbye . he thinks that you did this intentionally , and this is n't easy , but i have to ask you . did you ? was it on purpose ? did you take revenge on rafe ? [ scene_break ] lulu : a love triangle ? do tell . lucas : you know what ? [ chuckling ] let 's just forget it . i think i 'm making a big deal out of nothing . lulu : love triangles are not nothing . i 've been wrapped up in a few myself . i can tell you you are on a dangerous path that will only end in disaster . so , tell me everything . lucas : okay . um , well , felix dubois and i have been -- we 've been getting closer lately -- just as friends , at least so i thought . lulu : and when did things with you and felix start evolving ? lucas : when i got gunned down at my father 's dinner party . lulu : that 'll do it . lucas : mm - hmm . yeah , felix visited me while i was recuperating in the hospital , and i think i kind of like him . lulu : kind of ? lucas : mm , yeah . he 's smart . he 's chill . he 's cool . we have fun together . lulu : that 's great . lucas : yeah . [ inhales deeply ] lulu : who 's the other guy ? lucas : [ sighs ] hmm ? lulu : you ca n't have a love triangle with just two people , so who else is in the running ? lucas : brad cooper . [ scene_break ] felix : would you mind ? i 'm naked . brad : please . nothing that i have n't seen before . felix : okay , the only reason you 've seen any of this is because you 're a perv who used to spy on me in the shower . brad : you lured me to the shower , knowing that i 'd enjoy the show . you laid yourself out like a cheap suit . felix : okay , i do n't do anything like or with a cheap suit . brad : just like you 're doing now with lucas . felix : excuse me ? brad : admit it . you 're hungry for lucas . you 're a - a - a hungry , hungry hippo homosexual , and you 're famished . [ scene_break ] maxie : well , as exciting as that sounds , i do n't know anything about the status of anyone 's visa . agent scribner : levi dunkleman is an australian citizen whose permission to be on american soil has expired some time ago . maxie : as interesting as that sounds , i mean , what does it have to do with me ? agent scribner : when mr. dunkleman entered the country , he listed your apartment as his destination . maxie : how odd . agent scribner : if you knowingly harbor an illegal and refuse to produce him or information concerning his whereabouts , you 'll be in just as much trouble as he is . maxie : well , i - i do n't see the relevance , but , um ... [ clears throat ] ... hypothetically , how much trouble are we talking ? agent scribner : the government does not take these matters lightly . if you know anything , you had best speak up now before this situation escalates to something beyond your control . [ scene_break ] michael : okay , then , i 'll listen , but after you tell me , you have to promise you 'll get some rest . alice : okay . okay , remember what i said to you on the phone right before my heart attack ? michael : yeah , you said you had something to tell me . alice : yeah . it was about miss tracy . michael : what about tracy ? [ scene_break ] tracy : kiki , i 'm so sorry about your cousin . kiki : [ sighs ] thank you . tracy : i did n't know rafe personally , but i did hear that he was a fine young man with a great deal of potential . kiki : [ voice breaking ] he is a sweetheart . he had the hardest life of any kid that i 've ever known . tracy : what happened to him was just terrible . is it true -- did the doctors say that there was absolutely no brain function -- none at all -- that he -- he ca n't possibly come back ? morgan : tracy , how many times does she have to say it ? kiki : no , it 's okay . he made it very clear that there was no hope . tracy : okay , well ... [ clears throat ] ... there 's really no delicate way to put this . um ... i was wondering if you happened to know whether or not he was an organ donor . [ scene_break ] silas : apparently , a blood vessel ruptured while he was on the table ... and that was that . nina : oh . no . no , he 's young , and he 's strong . he 'll pull through the way that i did . silas : it 's not the same . nina : yes , it is . i mean , i was in a coma for 20 years , and i woke up . rafe will wake up , too . silas : i wish that were true , but ... nina : listen , silas , he needs -- he needs faith , and he needs commitment . he needs that from all of us . he needs to know that we 'll -- we 'll stick by him , and we 'll never give up , just like you never gave up on me . silas : rafe 's condition is very different from yours . there 's no chance he will ever wake up . never walk , never speak , or have a conscious thought again . for all intents and purposes , my nephew is dead . [ scene_break ] sam : i am so sorry , but i have to ask . rafe was my foster son , and i know it 's not the same as what gabriel meant to you , but i loved him , and i cared about him a lot , and silas is really angry right now , and i do n't want to do it . i do n't want to , but i have no choice . i have to ask you . patrick : i get it . and i understand you have a right to ask . sam : okay . are you gon na tell me ? [ elevator beeping ] [ beeping stops ] patrick : can we go somewhere private ? [ scene_break ] kiki : i 'm sorry . what ? tracy : i was wondering if you happened to know whether or not your cousin rafe is an organ donor . kiki : uh , yes , he is . silas gave us a big lecture about how important it is , so we both signed off on it . tracy : do you know where michael and monica are ? morgan : um , i - i 'm not sure about monica , but michael 's in the room with alice . [ scene_break ] alice : listen close , mr. michael . miss tracy did n't want me to tell you this , but she 's planning on -- tracy : stop everything . i have brilliant news . michael : [ sighs ] sort of in the middle of something . tracy : this trumps it . alice , i found you a heart . [ scene_break ] nina : i 'm so sorry . silas : [ sighs ] nina : i 'm , uh -- i know how much you care for rafe . i know he 's your last link to your brother . silas : thank you . nina : if it 's any comfort , i 'm sure that dr. drake did everything in his power to save rafe . silas : did he ? [ scene_break ] patrick : you were there when obrecht forced me to do the surgery , sam . i did n't want to do it . sam : no , i know . she did n't give you much of a choice . neither did i. i begged you to help rafe . patrick : you know that there was no other qualified surgeons on hand . if i did n't scrub in , rafe 's injuries go untreated . he would have died . so i did the operation ... and now he 's as good as dead , anyway . sam : but it was n't your fault , right ? i mean , you 're -- you 're a gifted surgeon . you 're objective . you treat every single patient with the same care and skill that you treated jason . i trusted you with jason 's life . i trusted you with rafe 's . i was n't wrong to do that ... was i ? [ scene_break ] lulu : brad ? really ? lucas : yeah . [ sighs ] lulu : i thought you were done with him . lucas : i am . no , i - i was . i -- we are . no , look , we 're done . we 're finito , but ... lulu : but what ? lucas : well , it 's just kind of nice , you know ? lulu : no , clearly , i do n't . lucas : no , the attention from brad -- it 's flattering . lulu : you have to get all kinds of attention from all kinds of guys . you do n't want to get with all of them , do you ? lucas : i -- it 's just that i - i really like brad -- or , i liked brad . when we first met , we had so much in common . i mean , we 're both adopted . both of our biological fathers are mobsters . lulu : and i 'll admit that that is quite a coincidence , but other than that , what is the draw ? lucas : the sex was good . [ chuckling ] honestly , the sex was great . um ... [ clears throat ] [ exhales deeply ] lulu : you know , i will take your word for it on that . you know , just go on . lucas : well [ sighs ] i mean , it seemed like just when we thought we had something that was really nice and was really gon na go somewhere , then brad up and ruined it . you know , i mean , once you find out your guy helped steal your cousin 's embryos , there 's really no going back . lulu : and obviously brad is not one of my favorite people . if you 're holding back from exploring a relationship with him just because of me ... do n't . [ scene_break ] felix : you need to take your jessica fletcher accusations back to cabot cove , because you 're so far off , you 're on the clouds . brad : [ scoffs ] are you actually gon na deny you 're not after lucas , after what i saw this morning ? felix : okay , not that it 's any of your business , but i did n't have sex with lucas last night . i stayed on the couch . brad : oh , i know you did n't have sex . lucas told me . [ locker door slams ] felix : then why the hell are you getting so upset ? brad : because , hello , `` golden girls `` ? really ? you are so transparent . felix : what do `` golden girls `` have to do with anything ? brad : you know all about the gays and `` the golden girls . `` sitting alone together , watching rose reminisce about st. olaf , sophia comparing dorothy 's sex life to the sea of tranquility . it 's foreplay . next thing you know , you 'll be watching `` knots landing `` in bed , and from there , it 's just a hop , skip , and jump to some over - the - top wedding , complete with chocolate fountains , ducks , and wilson phillips . felix : okay , first of all , chocolate fountains are gauche , and secondly -- brad : there is n't gon na be any second , because lucas is mine , so back ... the hell ... off . [ scene_break ] maxie : do you have a warrant ? agent scribner : i do n't need a warrant . i 'm not here to arrest anyone . maxie : you 're not ? well , then this seems like a huge waste of time . agent scribner : you 're right . now , could you please tell me -- is mr. dunkleman living here , or is n't he ? maxie : well , this is my apartment , and my name is the only one on the lease . i mean , i have a subletter , but his name is n't levi dunkleman . agent scribner : you 're giving me the runaround , ms. jones . maxie : i 'm not sure i know what you mean . agent scribner : you and i both know mr. dunkleman 's name need not be on the lease in order for him to live here . now , i want an answer . yes or no -- is levi dunkleman living here ? maxie : [ sighs ] no . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i do n't know any levi dunkleman . levi : so much for a restorative snooze . [ sighs ] i think old levi 's got a touch of the dunkleman insomnia . g'day , mate . who 's this ? [ scene_break ] kiki : okay , did tracy really just ask about rafe 's condition so that she could take his heart for alice ? morgan : that 's what i got out of it . [ scene_break ] tracy : i found a heart for alice . is n't that great ? michael : wait . slow down . what do you mean ? tracy : there is a young man here in this hospital that -- that was badly injured in a terrible accident . he -- he 's not gon na make it , so his organs are there for the taking . alice : miss tracy , that -- that 's horrible . michael : could you try for a little sensitivity ? tracy : look , i understand that this sounds inappropriate , but alice is my priority . she needs a heart , and rafe kovich has one to give . michael : wait . kiki 's cousin ? tracy : yeah , i - i heard it from kiki . she said that he 's a vegetable . it 's awful , i know . i know . but it 's true . he 's brain - dead . but he can save alice . she 's gon na live . and you have me to thank for it . [ scene_break ] nina : of course , dr. drake did everything he could to save rafe . si ? what is it ? what -- do you think that dr. drake did something or allowed something to happen to rafe ? silas : i do n't know what i think . nina : oh , my god . you must be so lost with no one to support you or anchor you . silas : you 're here . what do you think ? nina : um , i do n't -- i - i do n't want to say . silas : do it anyway . please ? nina : i do n't know the doctor . silas : but ? nina : but ... [ sighs ] i do n't know . it 's possible that dr. drake could have been so consumed with anger that he allowed himself to play god with rafe 's life . i 'm not saying it could have happened , but i would be a fool to say it could not have happened . silas : i saw the look in his eyes . at some point in that operation , drake wanted revenge . nina : i hate to say this , but you should never , ever underestimate a person 's longing for revenge . [ scene_break ] patrick : from the moment i made the first incision , everything was going by the numbers . retraction , cut , suction -- everything was going smoothly . i was focusing on the patient and not listening to the voice that was inside my head . sam : what voice ? patrick : the voice that was telling me this was rafe kovich , the one that took my son away from me . sam : okay . were you able to shut that out ? patrick : the harder i tried , the louder it got . kept telling me to avenge my boy . kept reminding me that rafe 's life is in my hands and that i could get even with one little cut . blood vessel would burst . it would look natural , and nobody would question whether i did it on purpose . rafe would be gone , just like gabriel , and i would have my justice for sabrina and for my boy . sam : [ sighs ] patrick : all i had to do was listen to the voice inside my head . sam : and ... did you ? [ scene_break ] agent scribner : did you say `` dunkleman `` ? maxie : no , he -- levi : levi dunkleman at your service , mister ... ? agent scribner : agent scribner . maxie : immigration and customs enforcement . levi : oh . what 's this about ? agent scribner : my department has come into information suggesting you 're here in the united states illegally . levi : uh , how ? agent scribner : i 'm following up on anonymous tip about your status , mr. dunkleman . maxie : [ sighs ] anonymous , my ass . i know exactly who ratted on levi . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] lucas : look , i ca n't get back with brad -- not after what he did . lulu : okay , you can do whatever you want . you can be with him . you can not be with him . either way , i 'm your cousin . i love you , and i do n't feel like you 're being disloyal , so do n't hang your decision not to on me . lucas : yeah , but he kept rocco away from you and dante for a long time . lulu : and now we have rocco back safe and sound , and dante and i have our other embryo , which , by the way , looks like i will be able to be the one to carry it to term . lucas : what ? ! lulu : [ chuckles ] lucas : oh , my god , congratulations ! lulu : thank you . mm . lucas : oh , that 's amazing . so , what are you guys gon na do ? lulu : i do n't know . we have to figure it out , but speaking of figuring things out , it sounds to me like you have strong feelings for both felix and brad . lucas : yeah , it looks that way . lulu : mm - hmm . so you 'll have to decide who you want . lucas : [ sighs ] lulu : yeah , ca n't keep waffling between them . lucas : waffling ? i 'm not waffling . okay , yeah , i 'm waffling . [ chuckles ] but , look , a decision like this is so much easier said than done . lulu : i have the sneaking suspicion that you already know who you want . so you need to go tell the lucky guy the good news . [ scene_break ] felix : get your dirty hand off of me . i do n't know where it 's been . felix : and how dare you besmirch the name of `` the golden girls `` ? that show is a television phenomenon shared by all people of good character and taste -- gay or straight , friends or lovers , which lucas and i most certainly are not , but even if we were , it 's not your say because what goes on between me and lucas is our business , and none of yours . brad : you and lucas do n't have any business and never will because you are a frigid , uptight prude who 'd faint dead away at the sight of an exposed ankle , whereas i am a red - blooded , virile , hot slab of a man who can give lucas the one thing you ca n't ! felix : what 's that ? brad : passion ! [ chuckles ] lucas : what the hell ? brad : ohh , okay . i - i - i - i know what this -- this looks like , but -- but this is n't at all what it looks like . felix , tell him . lucas : oh , yeah , no , really , do n't bother . brad : lucas . lucas , wait ! [ scene_break ] maxie : who squealed on levi ? levi : maxie , let 's not -- maxie : it was detective nathan west , was n't it ? agent scribner : i 'm not at liberty to say . maxie : yes , you are . this is america , and levi has the right to face his accuser . agent scribner : actually , mr. dunkleman does not have that right . in fact , his rights are few . he 's not a citizen and lacks a valid visa . now that i.c.e . is aware of his location , we can remedy the situation . levi : remedy ? well , that does n't sound -- maxie : how do you plan to remedy the situation ? agent scribner : by deporting mr. dunkleman , of course . [ scene_break ] kiki : i ca n't believe i just find out that my cousin is on life support , and he 's never coming back from it , and tracy is already circling to scavenge his organs . morgan : yes , tracy is ruthless , but ... kiki : but what ? morgan : but she 's trying to save the dominator . okay , i agree with you -- she is cruel . she is cold - blooded , but even so , i - i ca n't fault her for loving alice . [ scene_break ] michael : okay , let 's not get ahead of ourselves here . alice and rafe have to have the same blood type , or this is over before it starts . tracy : well , that 's easy enough to find out . michael : and i 'm pretty sure rafe is still a minor . for all we know , his family has to sign off . tracy : well , then let 's go and find out , instead of just standing around , wringing our hands over it . honestly , michael , you 're acting like you do n't want this to work out . michael : of course , i want alice to find a heart . tracy : oh , yeah ? well , i do n't see you doing anything about it . come on . let 's go . besides -- come on . let 's go . if there 's anybody here to trust , alice knows it 's me . [ scene_break ] silas : drake thinks he 's smart . he thinks he got away with something . i 'm gon na make sure he pays for what he did to my nephew . nina : okay , listen , i know you 're angry . silas : angry ? i am so far beyond angry . nina : which is why you need to think . you need to think about what will happen before you make accusations like this . silas : justice will happen , and drake will be held accountable . nina : si , you need to stop . you need to stop . you need to get the facts together and make a case . and thank goodness your girlfriend is a p.i . where -- where is samantha , by the way ? silas : she was here . kiki was here , too . i - i told them i needed a moment . nina : oh . i 'm sorry . and here i came wheeling myself in and intrude . silas : you 're not intruding . i 'm glad you 're here . it 's nice to have someone that understands . nina : sam understands , too , i 'm sure . i 'm sure she agrees with your theories regarding dr. drake , right ? silas : no , i do n't think she does . [ scene_break ] patrick : did i listen to the part of me that wanted to kill rafe ? i 've been asking myself that question ever since i stepped out of the o.r . did i turn a teenage boy into a husk to get retribution for taking gabriel away from sabrina and me ? i searched my soul , sam . i did n't do it . that blood vessel burst on its own . it was n't me . i did everything i could to save rafe , and now he 's gone . sam : yes , he is . patrick : it would n't have mattered who was on the table . it would have happened the same way . i did n't falter . sam , you got to believe me , okay ? tell me you believe me . [ scene_break ] michael : [ sighing ] i 'm sorry , kiki . i - i wish i could fix this . tracy : kiki , it is a tragedy that your cousin 's life was so violently cut short , but on the bright side , rafe 's heart could save alice . michael : damn it , tracy . kiki : no , it 's okay , michael . i know where she 's coming from . michael : you do ? kiki : yeah . morgan helped me come around . i already told tracy that rafe was an organ donor . michael : yeah , but to be a transplant candidate , rafe would have to have the same blood type as alice . tracy : alice is b - positive . is rafe ? kiki : i do n't know , but i could find out . michael : [ sighs ] how old is he ? kiki : 17 . michael : he 's too young . tracy : i 'll talk to dr. clay . morgan : whoa , whoa , whoa . is that a good idea ? tracy : why would n't it be ? morgan : because you piss people off , and i do n't want you messing things up for alice . tracy : thank you for that , but i 'm a better emissary than you would be . michael : i 'll do it . i 'll explain the situation . kiki : no . if anyone 's going to talk to silas about this , it 's going to be me . [ scene_break ] nina : i 'm sorry . are you saying that sam does n't share your suspicions regarding dr. drake ? wow . no reasonable person could deny that dr. drake might have intentionally hurt rafe , or -- or at least not been at the top of his game . silas : when i confronted drake about that ... sam stepped in to -- she stepped in to defend him . nina : she ... [ scoffs ] well , maybe -- never mind . silas : say it . nina : no . i just -- i 'm sorry . here you are -- your -- your nephew 's life is effectively over . you -- you -- you need support . you need an ally . and what -- sam is siding with dr. drake . [ scene_break ] patrick : please , sam . i do n't know what i would do if you thought i was capable of something like that . sam : i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't think that of you . i know you . i know you would never do anything to intentionally hurt rafe . i just ... patrick : you just needed to hear me say it . sam : i am so sorry i asked . patrick : do n't be . you needed to hear the truth . sam : no , i knew that you would tell me the truth , because you always tell me the truth , even when it hurts . convincing me was the easy part . now , silas -- he -- he blames you . convincing him -- that 's a whole other ball game . [ scene_break ] maxie : you ca n't just deport levi . agent scribner : the process will take a couple days , but , yes , i can . maxie : what is his crime ? overstaying his welcome ? i mean , this is his life , and he 's getting a new visa . agent scribner : that would have solved the problem , had he addressed it in a timely fashion . unfortunately , it 's too late for that now . maxie : okay , do n't worry , levi . we 're gon na call diane . she 's a legal barracuda , and by the time she 's done with them , they wo n't allow you to leave the country . agent scribner : i would n't waste your money , ms. jones . law is very clear on cases like this . might be best for mr. dunkleman to get packed and for the two of you to say your goodbyes . when i come back to retrieve him , i 'll be taking him straight to the airport , and he 'll be headed back to australia . levi : [ sighs ] maxie : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] brad : lucas , wait . i need to talk to you . what -- lucas : [ sighs ] brad : what you just saw now -- lucas : what -- you kissing felix dripping wet and naked ? brad : if you 'll just let me explain -- lucas : explain what , brad ? explain what -- that you lied to me -- that -- that -- that you fed me a bunch of bull about wanting me so bad ? brad : i do want you . lucas : `` oh , we belong together . `` only for you to take your first chance you could to jump on him . brad : i was trying to explain to felix what -- what i wanted to do with you . lucas : oh . really ? wow . you could n't have just -- i do n't know -- used your words , brad ? brad : i swear -- felix and i were just arguing about you , and i - i got carried away . lucas : [ laughs ] that is the most preposterous thing i 've ever heard . brad : yeah , too preposterous to be a lie , so it 's got to be true , right ? lucas : you 're really reaching , brad . brad : [ sighs ] lucas : i am such an idiot . brad : no , you 're not . i - i 'm the idiot . lucas : i came here to settle this between you guys , and now it 's worse than it 's ever been . brad : wait . settle it how ? lucas : i was gon na tell you which one of you i wanted to be with . felix : which one of us is it ? sorry for interrupting . brad : yeah , then do n't . ca n't you see lucas and i are in an important conversation ? felix : about all three of us , if i heard correctly . lucas : [ exhales deeply ] felix : did you say you came to tell either brad or me that you 're interested in pursuing a relationship with one of us ? lucas : i did say that . felix : [ sighs ] i got to be honest -- i did n't know that i was even in the running . i mean , i told brad that i was seeing you the other day because you 'd done the same thing . i thought he was bothering you , and i wanted to back him off . brad : so you lied ? you said you were dating when , in fact , you two are friends , and friends is all you 'll ever be , right ? so , uh , thank you for being a friend . now travel down the road and do n't come back again . you 're a pal and a confidante . that 's it . nothing more . godspeed . felix : okay , i 'm about to give you the gift of a fist , and the card attached is gon na say , `` sit your ass down . `` lucas : okay , i 'm out of here . brad : hey , wait , wait , wait . you did n't say which one of us you want . lucas : you know what ? after what i just witnessed , it does n't matter .

[ sighs ] your father staged his death so he could disappear . laura : yeah , this is starting to make some sense now . uh , nikolas has been , uh , exhibiting a little poor judgment lately . spencer : do n't blame him ! people have treated him so awfully , and he could n't catch a break . he only did this to save himself . kevin : from what ? laura : not `` from what `` -- `` from whom ? `` [ scene_break ] ava : i call the bed . nikolas : by all means . ava : [ sighs ] you know , this is surprisingly comfortable . nikolas : yeah , it was my grandmother 's . ava : helena had great taste . nikolas : yeah , she died in that bed . ava : okay . a dead woman 's bed , a storm on an island -- nothing ominous about that . oh , hello . nikolas : what 's that ? ava : hmm . `` the journal of helena cassadine . `` nikolas : aw , that 's a forgery . my grandmother never kept a journal .

'cause i do n't have children ? 'cause i 'm barren ? i was a mother once , for a short time -- a short time . so , i would -- i - i know what it 's like to have dreams for your child and then to lose it . i know what that 's like . anyway , i ca n't imagine what you 're going through , how worried you must be about your daughter . carly : i may never get the answers , but i have to try . i do . i have to pursue every possible avenue . nina : i think that 's what brought us together tonight . carly : i 'm not following . nina : i can help you , and you can help me .

[ thunder crashes ] [ scene_break ] ava : you killed your own grandmother ? nikolas : i did no such thing . my grandmother was paranoid on a good day . ava : are you trying to convince me you 're innocent ? nikolas : what , you do n't believe me ? [ thunder crashes ] ava : i do n't know . i 'm not sure . spending all of his time with you on our little road trip -- i thought we were kindred spirits . maybe i 'm wrong . [ thunder rumbling ] nikolas : look , i 've made my fair share of mistakes , done things i wish i had n't , things i wish i could take back . [ thunder crashes ] ava : have n't we all ? [ scene_break ] laura : so , did your father tell you how long this charade was supposed to last ? i mean , was he ever planning to tell me the truth about it or aunt lulu the truth about it ? you know , was i supposed to take care of you indefinitely ? spencer : okay , no . father was planning on coming for me . laura : when ? spencer : i do n't know , grandmother . he said to keep the burner phone with me , and we had scheduled times to talk . laura : so , your father asked you to lie ? spencer : oh , i 'm really sorry . i did n't mean to hurt anyone . just so many times , i wanted to tell you the truth . laura : it 's okay , honey . it 's really okay . it 's not your fault . i know how sorry you are . but not half as sorry as your father is gon na be when i get through with him . [ scene_break ] michael : you want to be a nurse again ? sabrina : [ sighs ] yes , i do . watching the nurses take care of teddy just made me realize what i was missing in my life , you know ? i - i 'm proud of my nursing degree . i was good at what i did , a - and i want to do it again . you know , i - i want to help people . michael : you know , i - i could -- i can make an appeal to my grandmother -- both of them , actually . uh , i 'm sure bobbie would be sympathetic to your situation . and together , we can , uh , convince her to give you a second chance . sabrina : michael , no . y - you 've already gone above and beyond for me . i mean , i ca n't ask you to do this . michael : you 're not asking . i 'm -- i 'm offering . sabrina : [ laughs ] oh , my gosh . thank you so much . oh , my gosh . i ca n't believe you 'd do this for me . michael : it 's the least i 'd do for you . [ kiss ] [ scene_break ] finn : tracy , really , this is -- this is above and beyond . tracy : i owed you . i do n't like owing anybody anything , even people i like . finn : [ sighs ] i was just doing my job . you -- you owe me nothing . tracy : i owe you for being my friend . thank you for that . finn : thank you . and , um , you know , there 's no time like the present to get back to work . tracy : what ? now , tonight ? finn : yeah . why wait ? you know , nothing but fear and common sense holding me back . tracy : well , you seemed a little -- a little tired . finn : yeah , well , a visit from hayden will do that to you , right ? tracy : well , i understand that . um ... look , do n't overdo it . finn : i would n't know how not to . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] jason : how 'd you get in the house ? theo : through the kitchen . jason : through the kitchen ? you know where the kitchen is . so you 've been here before , huh ? theo : a few times . sam : so , you know the cassadines ? theo : i sold fish to their cook , but this is my first time inside the house . [ thunder rumbling ] jason : how long you been watching us ? [ scene_break ] laura : okay , spencer , where is your father ? spencer : i do n't know . laura : what did i say about lying to me , hon ? spencer : i really do n't . father said he 'd be moving around a lot to make sure no one can find him . kevin : sounds like nikolas thought of everything . laura : okay , well , why do n't you go ahead and get dressed ? kevin : you okay ? laura : i do n't know . [ scoffs ] i guess i should be happy and relieved my son is alive . i 'm not . i 'm angry . i ca n't believe that he would do something like this . kevin : it seems like nikolas was in a pretty desperate situation , maybe really in fear for his life . laura : not his life -- the way he lives it . kevin : seems like you have a pretty good idea why he did this . laura : i 'd love to be able to confide in you , but it would n't be fair . kevin : why not ? laura : it might put you in sort of a tricky legal position . kevin : [ scoffs ] trust me -- i can stand up under pressure a little better than spencer can . [ scene_break ] ava : i 'm sorry to tell you , but your plan to disappear and start a whole new life appears to be quite the failure . nikolas : yeah , it does , does n't it ? ava : if it makes you feel any better , i failed just as badly when i tried it . [ thunder rumbling ] ava : i hurt my kids . i 'm not sure my older daughter will ever completely forgive me . but i 'm being ridiculous , because regrets ... [ sighs ] are worse than pointless . they do not inspire respect from one 's underlings or fear from one 's enemies . nikolas : but i 'm not an underling or an enemy . so , what am i to you ? ava : that remains to be seen . nikolas : you ever wish you had a - a do - over on this crazy adventure ? [ both chuckle ] ava : oh ... i guess i 'd have to find out what 's ultimately in store for us before i wish for a do - over . [ kiss ] [ scene_break ] michael : [ sighs ] that was too soon , was n't it ? i 'm -- i 'm sorry . that was -- sabrina : oh , oh , no , no , no . michael : no ? sabrina : no , not -- not too soon . michael : well , uh , all right , then . sabrina : [ chuckles ] [ elevator bell dings ] [ elevator door opens ] sabrina : oh ! dr. finn . finn : hmm ? sabrina : um , i have n't had the chance to properly thank you for -- for what you did for teddy . finn : no thanks needed . sabrina : oh , uh , well , if there 's anything -- finn : i 'm sorry . i do n't have time to chat . work to do . [ scene_break ] tracy : uh , water with lemon and a wine list , please . hayden : [ chuckles ] you can drink later . we need to talk about dr. finn . tracy : what 's to talk about ? thanks to my lobbying , he has been reinstated with general hospital . hayden : for all the good it will do . tracy : what does that mean ? hayden : dr. finn ca n't do much good at the hospital if he 's dead , which he will be if you do n't use all of your considerable influence to save his life . [ scene_break ] nina : how about using a major media platform to expand your search for a kidney donor ? carly : crimson -- i mean , it 's a fashion magazine . nina : we do n't just do fashion . we do human - interest stories , investigative stories . let me tell josslyn 's story . i mean , it could jump - start your search for a kidney donor , at the very least shed light on the trade of black - market organs . carly : [ sighs ] well , i know it 's a great human - interest story . it will draw new viewers to crimson . nina : see ? it 's win - win . carly : i do n't know . i do n't know . it 's a really personal , personal story . it was very painful , and i do n't know if i want to go public . nina : i just think , carly , it can get some questions answered for you . carly : you 're right . all right . let 's do it . let 's do it . [ scene_break ] [ thunder crashing in distance ] nikolas : what are you -- ava : exactly what we both want .

[ next_on ] anna ( to julian ) : ? ? for the rest of your life . hayden ( to tracy ) : i ca n't do this alone . i need someone with influence . theo ( to sam ) : cassadine is here ? nikolas : ava , just let it go . laura ( to lulu ) : your brother 's alive . griffin ( to finn ) : are you okay ? | carly is alone at the metro court when she runs into nina . she admits to her she 's lost in thought and incomplete regarding the unsolved mystery of her daughter 's kidney . hearing that , nina concludes she has the perfect new feature story for crimson and believes they might get some answers if they go public . at first , carly is not certain she wants to go through with that but then concludes she will . at the abandoned house in greece , jason and sam know they have to prevent nikolas and ava from going anywhere and do not trust them . ava is able to find that nikolas is carrying a pouch with the secret diamonds . sam and jason find a man who is spying on them who admits he 's `` working `` for secret people and we see that this unidentified man with a foreign accent has a very `` noteworthy `` tattoo . back in port charles , laura and kevin discover that spencer is carrying a secret extra phone and she is able to clearly see he has been calling and receiving calls from one specific number . he finally admits that he has , in fact , been in contact with his father who is alive and on the lamb and explains how it happened following the nurse 's ball when his dad asked him to `` cover `` for him and have all others believing he is dead . laura admits to kevin she is afraid to bring her son home , knowing he will be facing criminal charges . yet she also knows that an innocent man has been accused of the murder of her son who is alive and she ca n't let that happen to jason morgan . finn is desperate to find the drug he needs and indicates he has some secrets which he does not want to reveal to hayden or anyone . tracy comes to visit him and informs him she was successful in getting him reinstated to gh . he 's grateful but indicates he has a serious and detrimental secret . |
elizabeth : you 're here late . hayden : yeah . a few hundred more evenings like this , and i 'll be all caught up . elizabeth : can i ask you a question ? did dr. obrecht really get arrested for tampering for finn 's drug test ? hayden : well , i 'm not at liberty to say . elizabeth : oh . i was afraid of that . hayden : really ? i 'm surprised that you care . elizabeth : [ scoffs ] i do n't , but franco will . he 's been in manhattan . hayden : yeah , you know , i have n't seen him around . what 's up ? elizabeth : most of his assets were frozen pending a civil lawsuit . there 's a chance for a negotiated settlement , and if that happens , he might be able to reclaim a large catalog of his work and maybe some large bank accounts . hayden : mm . fingers crossed , then . elizabeth : still , i know he 'll be upset about obrecht . even though i could n't stand her , i guess she was a good friend to him .

[ door opens ] finn : i 'm here to see liesl obrecht . officer : it 's way past visiting hours . finn : oh . i got a message to come down to the station . i assumed it was about her . nathan : dr. finn . thanks for coming . i wanted to discuss the case against my mother .

[ sighs ] valentin : it 's okay . nina : what are you doing here ? [ scene_break ] hayden : the one i feel sorry for is detective west . he seems like an honest , straightforward guy . it ca n't be easy for a cop to have his own mother in prison . elizabeth : i do n't really know how close they actually are . i mean , he ca n't be completely oblivious to all the terrible things his mother 's done . but on the other hand , a son 's love for his mother can be very strong . i know . hayden : wow . i had given that absolutely no thought . elizabeth : speaking of -- how are you feeling ? hayden : better . i seem to be through the worst of the morning sickness . elizabeth : you know , i 've got a break coming up . can i get you a juice , or whatever the hip mothers - to - be are drinking these days ? hayden : i 'd like that . [ scene_break ] nathan : i believe you know , i 'm liesl obrecht 's son . finn : hm . and you 're gon na ask me not to press charges . nathan : i 'm just -- i 'm just asking you to hear me out , okay ? we both know what my mother did to you is wrong . she falsified tests , she tried to sabotage your career , and she deserves to face the consequences of her actions . i just do n't know that prison is the right way to go . finn : i get it . nathan : you do ? finn : i 've gone over the situation . i would n't be opposed to an alternative resolution . nathan : great . what did you have in mind ? finn : it 's a deal she 's not gon na like . nathan : yeah , well , she does n't really like much of anything , so ... finn : [ chuckles ] my ability to arrange her freedom rests solely in her hands . it all depends on what she tells me . nathan : and when do you want to do this ? finn : how about now ? nathan : all right . [ scene_break ] liesl : [ vocalizing ] [ door closes ] liesl : [ continues vocalizing ] [ keys jingle ] liesl : oh , nathan , i 'm glad you came back so quickly . the food here is almost as ...

[ scene_break ] valentin : you look like you could use one of these . [ sighs ] nina : i thought you were gon na be killed . valentin : i did , too . a wsb agent came to me in the middle of the night and put me in handcuffs and he threw me in a van . i thought for sure he was gon na take me to some remote location and shoot me . but i met with three of his wsb superiors , and they told me they were dropping the charges and that i was free to go . nina : just like that ? valentin : i did n't ask questions . i took my passport , took my release papers , and i left . and i had some time to think on the flight home . i think i know why they did it . nina : i do n't suppose it 's because they thought you were innocent . valentin : it 's because the wsb is more complicit than i am . they created the chimera in the first place . they do n't want the public humiliation of a trial . it 's much cleaner for them to let me go , bury the file in a drawer somewhere , pretend like none of this ever happened . nina : so , you 're free . valentin : i 'm free to come home to my wife and my daughter . nina : you do n't have a wife anymore . valentin : then why are you here ? [ scene_break ] liesl : nathan , why have you brought this man to me at this late hour ? do you want to give me schreckgepensts [ nightmares ] ? nathan : just hear him out . liesl : i am not interested in anything he might want to say . finn : it concerns your freedom . liesl : fine . talk . finn : alone . liesl : so you can lord your triumph over me in private ? nathan : look , i 'm gon na let you two talk this over , all right ? but listen to what dr. finn has to say , okay ? it might work out in your favor . liesl : i doubt it . nathan : mother , please . liesl : very well . for you , son . so ? finn : so , i 've been discussing the situation with monica . liesl : wunderbar [ wonderful ] . am i to be burned at the stake or drawn and quartered ? finn : [ chuckles ] she might have an alternative solution that might benefit all involved . liesl : which is ? finn : for starters , you need to resign from general hospital immediately . [ scene_break ] hayden : you did n't have to buy me dinner . elizabeth : i said i would . hayden : no , you said you would buy me juice . this is above and beyond . elizabeth : i remember what it felt like to be pregnant and ravenous . hayden : yeah , well , i wanted to wait for finn -- he 's supposed to meet me here in a little while -- but these cravings are insane . elizabeth : so , things are good between you and finn ? hayden : yeah . i mean , you know , this pregnancy took us both by surprise , but we 're adjusting . elizabeth : it 's a big adjustment . hayden : and a lot for him to cope with so early in his recovery ? elizabeth : yeah , that occurred to me . hayden : but i 'm doing everything in my power to help him stay clean -- even though i know there are no guarantees . elizabeth : if you think i should mind my business , will you just tell me ? hayden : will you listen ? elizabeth : no . but at least i 'll know it bothers you and i can bask in it . i think it would be a good idea for you to get familiar with the signs of a returning addiction . you know , just in case . hayden : yeah , i 've , um ... i 've read a little bit about it , but i do n't know anyone with first - hand experience . so , what are the signs i should be looking -- [ gasps ] elizabeth : what ? hayden : i think it 's the baby . [ scene_break ] dante : anna . lulu : how did this happen ? anna : hey . lulu : how did valentin go free ? anna : i do n't know . who told you ? dante : i got a call from a buddy at cbp . he said they detained valentin at jfk , ran his paperwork , everything checked out . no outstanding warrants . anna : robert had better have an explanation . just hold on . ugh , it 's voicemail . robert , it 's me . look , i know how determined you were to put valentin away . could you please explain how it is that he made a legal return to the us ? when you get this , will you call me back ? there 's a number of people who are very anxious for answers . [ scene_break ] valentin : i thought i was coming home to an empty house . nina : you were . i came in to get my stuff -- my jewelry and ... valentin : to fall asleep in my sweater . nina : the launch was chilly . valentin : keep it . nina : i do n't want your sweater . this is yours . i do n't need it . and by the way , i want to tell you , i did n't appreciate you making me think that you were going to be executed . valentin : well , i 'm sorry if i upset you , but i really thought i was gon na die that night . i wanted to make sure i heard your voice one last time . nina : okay . well , you did n't die , you 're alive . good . i 'm glad . i truly am glad . and we are divorced . valentin : it 's official , is it ? i was n't sure . nina : well , you signed the paper . you signed it . and so did i . so , i guess it has to be notarized and something legal has to happen . valentin : i still love you . nina : please do n't say that . valentin : why not ? it 's the truth . i love you . and now that i 've been married to you , i 've developed a taste for it . i do n't want to live my life with anyone else . nina : please do n't do that . valentin : all right . i wo n't pressure you -- tonight . i ca n't make any promises about tomorrow , because i will pull out all the stops , and i will convince you that we can make a family together again . nina : well , you should n't worry about me . you should be worrying about charlotte . valentin : well , i would 've gone to dante and lulu 's , but lulu has custody , and i doubt that they 'd let me in . nina : well , they 're at the metro court -- excuse me . dante 's mother got married and charlotte was a flower girl . valentin : well , why do n't we go over there together ? nina : no . i 'm leaving . valentin : jusqu ' à ce que nous nous reverrons , mon amour ? [ until we meet again , my love ? ] nina : did you just say something romantic to me ? valentin : i told you you were my love nina : listen , valentin ... i 'm glad you 're alive . i really am . i 'm glad you 're out of prison . but ... you should go to your daughter . i wish you well , but we are divorced . good night .

hayden : i think there 's something wrong with my baby . elizabeth : she 's having pains . can you tell me what it feels like ? hayden : it 's , like , sharp and dull at the same time . what 's happening ? andré : well , there 's no point in guessing . let 's get you to gh , and we can have one of the attendings check you out . hayden : i just want my baby to be okay . elizabeth : we all do . it 's okay . hayden : [ breathing heavily ] [ scene_break ] liesl : [ chuckles ] i see . while you go on with your career , which you gravely jeopardized with your chemical abuse -- i am to , what ? tender my resignation before going gently into that good night ? finn : you need to clear my name with the board and the hospital staff . you need to write a written apology , not only to me , but to the hospital itself . liesl : i knew it . your goal is to humiliate me . finn : well , truthfully , that sounds excellent . but this has more to do with the hospital than it does with me . liesl : just how do you figure that ? finn : i gave gh the money it needed to save itself . liesl : [ laughs ] so you remind us , over and over . finn : i do n't want to jeopardize the arrangement we have with the pharmaceutical company . if i 'm reinstated after failing multiple drug tests , that might reflect badly on the hospital . you need to make it a public record that you tampered with those tests and that i 'm clean . liesl : and if i comply ? if i publicly disgrace my name , my reputation , my life 's work ? then ? finn : all the charges will be dropped , and you 'll be set free . liesl : but i would n't be free -- not in the way i see freedom . so my answer is `` no . `` [ scene_break ] nina : hello . hey . i thought you might need a pick - me - up . nathan : oh , coffee , coffee . nina : yes . nathan : i 'm assuming you heard , then . nina : no . what happened ? is maxie okay ? nathan : what ? yeah , yeah , maxie 's fine . sit , maxie 's fine . nina : all right . what 's going on ? nathan : well ... my mother , your aunt liesl , has tampered with someone 's drug tests in an attempt to destroy said person 's career and life . nina : what ? do you know why she did this ? nathan : i have a pretty good idea . she blames dr. finn for her demotion at the hospital . nina : what ? that was forever ago . why would she still be holding a grudge . well , yeah , of course , she 'd be holding a grudge . well , what 's gon na happen to her ? nathan : i do n't know . i called dr. finn in an attempt to , i do n't know , negotiate some kind of truce or something . i 'm not sure i got through to either one of them . nina : j , she 's your mother and i know you love her , but she broke the law , and she has to face the consequences . you do n't need to bail her out . nathan : yeah , i -- she 's my mother , okay ? i know we 've had problems -- literally , since the day i found out -- but ... nina : that 's putting it mildly . nathan : yeah , but she loves me . i know she does . in her own ... unique , demented way , she loves me . and she 's in trouble . and never mind the fact that the trouble is of her own making , i ca n't just sit here and do nothing . nina : i know you ca n't . because you 're a good guy and you help everyone -- like you 're helping amy -- and that 's why maxie loves you , and that 's why i love you , and that 's why i 'm here . nathan : why are you here ? nina : yeah . nathan : what do you need ? nina : oh , just a reality check , please ... nathan : all right . nina : ... before i follow my heart into some trouble . nathan : follow you heart where , exactly ? nina : to valentin . nathan : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] anna : all right , thank you . thank you so much for that information . you know , would you do me a favor ? could you tell robert to call me when he gets out of that meeting ? valentin 's release is legit . they dropped the charges . lulu : how is that possible ? he sold a classified weapon to helena cassadine . anna : well , the wsb is concerned -- that 's their word -- about drawing attention to a weapon that was developed in a previous administration that is n't in line with the bureau 's current goals and methods . lulu : so , they let valentin go because they 're embarrassed ? anna : well , they want to avoid the embarrassment that could , you know , potentially arise through the publicity of a trial . dante : so , they 're covering it up ? anna : yeah . i mean , there 's not a lot to cover up . really , well , there is n't . i mean , my sister , alex , you know , she 's still at large . helena 's dead . if you think about it , there are n't any other witnesses that could testify against valentin . so , the rest of their case is ... i mean , it 's just circumstantial , really , at this point . lulu : they just let him go ? charlotte : papa ! valentin : hello , sweetheart . oh . charlotte : papa ! [ scene_break ] andré : i just saw the attending leaving . is everything okay ? hayden : everything but my dignity . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] hayden : laugh it up . i liked you better when i hated you . elizabeth : okay , now i have to go . hayden : yeah , you better run . elizabeth : but one day , i will trade pregnancy horror stories with you that 'll make you feel much better . hayden : i ca n't wait . elizabeth : you 'd better stay put until you sign those release forms . andré : so , how do you really feel ? hayden : grateful . i 'm really glad that both of you were there . thank you . andré : oh , my pleasure . i was happy to help . congratulations , by the way . i was n't aware you were pregnant . hayden : yep . andré : are you having second thoughts about the baby ? hayden : i 'm having second thoughts about my fitness as a mother . i mean , i 'm usually very cool , calm , and collected . now i panic at the drop of a hat . does that go away ? or am i gon na freak out every time i think something might be the tiniest bit wrong ? andré : a little uncertainty is perfectly normal . hayden : ugh . andré : though , in the future , i would definitely advise you to lay off the rich foods and the spicy ribs . hayden : yeah , yeah . andré : they 're really good , but ... hayden : yeah , they are . lesson learned . [ chuckles ] you know , when i found out i was pregnant , i was ... i was ambivalent . but after what happened tonight , i realized how much i want this baby and how much i want to raise him or her with finn . but the way i 'm going , i 'm probably gon na be , like , a helicopter mom tracking my kid every second throughout the day until he 's , like , 30 . andré : right now , you sound like a very normal mother to me -- nothing more , nothing less . [ scene_break ] finn : you 'd rather go to prison than admit that you were wrong ? liesl : you never understood why i hate you so much , did you ? finn : mnh - mnh . liesl : i took the job as chief of staff at general hospital so i could stay in port charles and get to know my son . i was able to acquaint myself with that beautiful , honorable man while curing patients and maximizing administrative efficiency at that -- that quartermaine - corrupted madhouse . and when you showed up , all of that changed . finn : i came here to treat one patient . and if you would n't have put up so many obstacles , i would 've treated tracy quartermaine and been on my way . liesl : so go . finn : i ca n't now . i have ... a life here . i have a child on the way . liesl : [ scoffs ] bully for you . finn : you know , if it were n't for your spite and your anger , i would n't have been cornered into the life that i have . so , in a strange way , i guess i have you to thank for that . liesl : then drop the charges . finn : write the apology and tender your resignation . liesl : the scandal will eclipse my work as a physician and a researcher . i 'll never get another job as a doctor -- at least , not in america . maybe anywhere . finn : you realize , the fate that you 're describing -- the one that you are facing -- is the same one that you were planning for me . liesl : that was different . it was happening to you , and you deserve it . finn : [ scoffs ] oh , obrecht . look , acknowledge what you did in writing ... and then , you 'll be on the path to rebuilding your life . and at least you 'll get to see your son -- and it wo n't be through plexiglas in some prison visiting room . so , what 's it gon na be ? [ scene_break ] nathan : wait , so you -- you heard from valentin ? nina : i saw valentin . he says he was legally and legitimately released . nathan : of course . what else is he gon na say ? did he show up at crimson ? nina : no . nathan : did he show up at your hotel room ? nina : no . nathan : okay , well , nina , where ? nina : [ sighs ] i was at wyndemere , sleeping on the couch , wearing his favorite sweater . nathan : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] valentin : oh . i missed you , sweetheart . charlotte : i missed you , too , papa . i was looking at our star , even though i knew you 'd come back -- like you said in the video . valentin : i was looking , too . i was looking , too . charlotte : where were you ? valentin : oh , someplace i do n't have to go to again . charlotte : why were you gone so long ? valentin : well , some folks made a mistake , but we made it right , and i never have to leave you again . charlotte : i 'm glad . i do n't like when you 're gone from me . valentin : i do n't like it , either . so , tell me everything . nina told me you were in a wedding . charlotte : i was the flower girl . valentin : i heard you were the prettiest thing i could possibly imagine , and she was n't lying . look at you . lulu : hey , charlotte , honey , you want to come get some lemonade with me ? anna and dante want to talk to your papa about where he 's been . valentin : vas - y , ma petite . je serai ici . [ go on , my dear . i 'll be here . ] lulu : [ sighs ] valentin : do you guys want to see my paperwork ? dante : yeah , i 'd like to . anna : that wo n't be necessary . i checked with the wsb . all the charges were dropped . valentin : yeah . shocked the hell out of me . anna : you thought they were gon na kill you . valentin : it crossed my mind . anna : well , i guess without alex to testify ... valentin : i think that 's probably why she was able to get away . anna : you think they let her go ? valentin : i do n't think that they want public record of the chimera , i certainly do n't think they want a trial , and i think it 's better to pretend that the chimera never existed . dante : well , this worked out well for you , huh ? valentin : yeah . it worked out great . i 'm free to collect my daughter . dante : yeah , that 's not gon na happen . [ scene_break ] liesl : your arguments are sound and , as much as i hate to admit it , generous . i will take all of this under advisement . this may indeed be the best way to go . finn : we 'll be in touch . [ scene_break ] nathan : okay , okay , so , you 're curled up on the couch at wyndemere in valentin 's sweater because ... nina : i do n't know . it was an impulse . nathan : an impulse to do what ? nina : i do n't know . [ sighs ] listen , the other day , i was getting dressed , and i realized that i did n't have my favorite opal bracelet , and it was in my jewelry case , and my jewelry case was at wyndemere . so , i decided to go there and get it , and i saw spencer . nathan : spencer cassadine ? nina : yeah , spencer cassadine . and he was there , and he was so sad . i felt so bad for him , because he wants to be at wyndemere , it 's his home , but he ca n't be , because it does n't belong to him , it belongs to valentin . nathan : okay , so , the kid showed up alone ? nina : no , no , with his grandmother and his grandmother 's boyfriend . nathan : you 're getting sidetracked . nina : i know . i know . it 's because i just do n't want to admit what i did . nathan : what 'd you do ? nina : okay . after i got my jewelry case , i came downstairs and i saw valentin 's sweater . and it 's my favorite sweater of his because it 's the same sweater that he wore the first night i stayed at wyndemere . so , i grabbed it , just so i could have something familiar of his . and then , i put it on , and i guess i fell asleep on the sofa , because i woke up to him looking down at me with this smiling face . and honestly , it was the happiest i 've ever been in my entire life , j . nathan : nina ... nina : i know . so , i 'm backsliding , and i need your help . i need you to tell me all the reasons that i should be better off without him . nathan : [ sighs ] hold that thought . dr. finn . finn : huh ? nathan : any progress ? finn : yes , i ... i think your mother may have seen the light . if she does what i 'm asking -- what the hospital 's asking -- you have my word ... the charges will be dropped . nathan : thank you . finn : yeah . nina : hey . nathan : look , i got to go follow up with my mother . nina : oh . all right . nathan : there 's a chance the charges might be dropped . nina : oh , okay , go ahead . nathan : look , i want you to stay here . nina , look at me . i want you to stay here and wait till i get back and think about all of the times that valentin lied to you . think about all the times that you convinced yourself to believe him . think about all the times that he left you to go be with anna . nina : right . nathan : think about it . [ scene_break ] valentin : i am grateful to you an lulu for taking care of my daughter . but i 'm back now . dante : you may be back , but lulu still has custody of charlotte . valentin : temporary custody . dante : and until that changes , we 're not letting that little girl out of our sight . charlotte : papa . have you answered all the questions ? valentin : you know what , i did . i think it 's best that i let you go , because it 's late and you need to go to dante and lulu 's to get tucked in and have sweet dreams . charlotte : can you come , too ? valentin : no . i wish i could . but i have to go back to the house and check on the horses , make sure they 're okay , and get everything ready for you to come back to stay .

[ scene_break ] lucky : look , if you and sonny want to blow each other up in private , that 's your business . but this incident happened in a garage with public access , and i ca n't just look the other way when innocent lives could have been lost . johnny : fine . what can i do to help you make your case ? lucky : just tell me everything you remember about friday night . johnny : the night of the bombing , sonny insisted that kristina be at her mother 's house for a family dinner , right ? but instead , she ducked out , came to see me , at which point , i told her , again , that she needed to stop trying to hang out with me , and i offered to drive her home . lucky : go on . johnny : so we 're walking in my garage . i got my keyless entry in my hand . i hit the button , unlocked the car , and i noticed something funny underneath the car . and instead of a friendly chirp , i got a loud boom . fortunately , i yanked kristina out in time . lucky : sonny could have lost his daughter . johnny : you could have lost your brother . ethan was supposed to be riding shotgun that night . we had a meeting with the lopez brothers . he mentioned something about luke asking him last - minute to run some sort of errand for him . lucky : you just got to love my dad 's timing .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i have 4 kids . one i shot , one got shot because of me , and one almost got killed as an innocent bystander in a hit that i ordered . no wonder carly wants jax to adopt morgan . jason : do you know why i gave michael your name ? i mean , you were gone , living on the island . i did n't think you 'd ever come back to port charles . you were the person who changed my life . you taught me how to make decisions and actually live with the consequences . you taught me my job , which most people might not approve of , but it 's what i wanted to do , and you taught me to do it well . sonny : you were brain damaged . i taught you to kill . jason : no , you taught me how to be a man , sonny . you were like a father to me . i know that you 're a good father . and i know you did n't understand until it was too late how this business would affect your kids . you did everything you could to protect them . sonny : even dante ? you think it 's okay to protect him , or do you still believe that i chose him over michael ?

[ sniffles ] i do n't know if you were watching from heaven when this whole thing started , but when dante and lulu decided to have a family , they went after it with everything they had , and when lulu realized she could n't carry a child of her own , she was devastated . georgie : you were trying to help . maxie : yeah , shocking , i know . georgie : not shocking . i 'm your sister , remember ? even if i was n't on a pass from the other side , i still know you better than anyone . you try so hard to make the people you love happy . you 're doing it now with this baby . you 're just -- you 're going about it the wrong way . maxie : i volunteered to be dante and lulu 's surrogate . it might be a mistake , but it 's too late now . i 'm pregnant with a baby that they think is theirs -- a baby that they have been longing for and planning for -- not me . what kind of person -- what kind of friend would i be if i took that away from them ? that would destroy lulu . georgie : not as destroyed as you 'll be once you give birth to your daughter , only to hand her over to be raised by lulu and dante . [ scene_break ] dante : franco 's in the hospital with a pretty professional - looking beatdown that he got tonight . i 'm trying to question him , and he tells me he walked into a door . lulu : and you think sonny had something to do with that ? dante : like i said , i - i know how sonny thinks . i 'm sure he 's behind this , but franco 's not talking and neither is alexis . lulu : wait . what does she have to do with it ? dante : oh , alexis is the one who brought franco to the hospital . i do n't even know what she was doing there , but i think she witnessed the beating , and now she 's covering for sonny . [ scene_break ] connie : i knew you two were getting closer , and i thought that maybe something might happen , but you swore to me that nothing was going on , olivia . olivia : and that -- that was the -- that was the truth .

[ scene_break ] lulu : how could nikolas do this to us ? how could he leave us all here to grieve ? i want to be happy that he 's alive . i - i am happy . i - i 'm thrilled , but i 'm furious . why would he hurt us this way ? laura : i know , i know . my mind has been spinning ever since i realized that that -- lulu : god , you -- you had a prayer service for him . and spencer . yes , spencer . remember how concerned we were about how he was behaving as if nothing had happened , so detached ? lulu : [ gasps ] oh , my god . what ? spencer knew ? laura : yeah , yeah , he did . that 's how i found out . actually , um , kevin and i sort of wrangled it out of him . lulu : okay , i - i want to throttle nikolas right now . how can you do that to your son ? you have the choice between letting your child lie to everyone that loves him or ... i do n't know , letting your son believe that you 're dead . okay , neither choice is acceptable , and that is why you do n't fake your death to begin with . laura : yes , and unfortunately your brother just did n't see it that way . lulu : if i were n't trying to get pregnant , there would n't be enough wine in here to help me deal with this . laura : [ sighs ] okay . so , help me figure out my next move here . because obviously nikolas will contact spencer again . i could just wait for that to happen and ambush my own son , or ... should i just go to the authorities now ? dante : go to the authorities about what ? [ scene_break ] julian : all you 've been talking about for months is how you wanted justice . well , here it is , anna . anna : yeah , indeed , here it is . julian : you almost seem ... subdued . `` careful what you wish for , `` is that it ? vengeance is n't all that it 's cracked up to be ? anna : no , no . i 'm just thinking about the waste . just that a vile , deceitful coward like you can dismantle so many people 's lives is just a waste . you know that statue , the one at the courthouse -- justice ? the woman with the blindfold and scales meaning justice . scales are supposed to balance . they never will for me . you took the love of my life , you get to spend the rest of yours in jail . that seems a really small price to pay . [ scene_break ] finn : i guess they were looking for proof against me and did n't find it . as a result , all my research , all my personal files are lost . griffin : are you okay ? finn : i 'm fine . griffin : you 're not fine . you 're -- you 're diaphoretic . finn : do n't do this now , griffin . griffin : when was the last time you ate or hydrated ? finn : you know , thanks for the help , all right ? i 'll do this myself . amy : he 's über moody , is n't he ? he 's either super fun with his pet lizard or he 's dr. mcbark - a - lot . griffin : have you seen dr. finn like this before ? amy : like i said , he 's either super moody -- griffin : or pale and sweaty ? amy : i guess . once in a while . seems like a loner , but his patients adore him .

[ scene_break ] dante : so , you did n't speak to nikolas yourself ? laura : no . dante : do you know where he is ? laura : i do n't . dante : does spencer ? laura : no . lulu : dante , my mom just found out earlier tonight . she was n't keeping it from you or from the police . laura : well , actually , i was . lulu : mom . but i knew once i told you that you would tell him , and i was kind of counting on that , actually . but i 'm counting on you to keep it within the family . dante : well , i 'm sorry , laura , i ca n't do that . laura : just give me three days to find him myself and to bring him home . i can convince him to come forward on his own . dante : whoa , whoa , whoa . i thought -- i thought you just said you did n't know where he was . [ scene_break ] ava : i 'd like to know just how this train wreck happened . what are you running from ? what did you drag me into without telling me ? nikolas : my wife 's got something on me . ava : ah , there it is . nikolas : not just the diamonds . something worse . something that could send me to prison and away from my son for the rest of my life . ava : i knew it . nikolas : you do n't know anything . [ sighs ] ava : then tell me . [ thunder ] nikolas : it 's always been between hayden and me . the thing that 's kept us at arm 's length even when we were falling in love . all of hayden 's lies paled in comparison . ava : i 'm going to guess that hayden has proof of this ... transgression of yours . nikolas : it was always the trump card . she knew it . [ scene_break ] julian : you want to make me pay ? huh ? here 's your chance . i 'm lying here helpless . so , go on , put me out of my misery and yours . come on ! anna : okay . two things . first of all , you 're a coward . and if i even attempted to kill you , you would gravel and whine and beg for your life . you 're just goading me , because you know i would never do it . and the second thing , my victory comes from living as a free woman . and the fact that you will spend the rest of your life in a cell . julian : do n't be so sure . anna : oh , no , you ca n't slither out of this one . there 's no witness protection waiting to give you a new identity . you will be tried and convicted , and there is no friend to alibi you . i 'm not even sure that your family is going to stand by you . well , maybe your sister , but nobody seems to know where she is . certainly alexis never wants to lay eyes on you again . julian : you do n't know anything about my wife . anna : i think i do . i do . i was on the other end of that wire that she was wearing . i heard you insisting how much you loved her . you do n't even know the meaning of the word , because you have to sacrifice the people that you love . you have to let them live their lives to the greater good ahead of your own . kind of like sonny . yeah . julian : no . anna : remember when he was being held up on charges for killing aj quartermaine and carly also was charged for accessory after the fact ? because she knew , but she kept quiet . julian : i do n't want to hear about sonny . anna : i know you do n't . sonny 's a criminal and so are you , but that 's where the similarities end , because sonny could have fought those murder charges , but he did n't . he decided to take a deal and plead guilty , so that carly could go free . he sacrificed his own freedom for the love of his wife . there 's no doubt in my mind that duke would have done the same for me . but poor alexis . she put a lot of faith in you and look what it got her . [ scene_break ] theo : i did n't know the prince was here . i did n't know he was alive . jason : well , now that you know , i 'm sure you 'd like to see him . theo : well , why would i. i told you i only met him once . jason : now you 've got a chance to meet him again . right up those stairs . yeah , go on . it 's fine . we 'll be there in a minute .

[ scene_break ] sam : julian , hey . i need to talk to you . julian : sam , how 'd you , uh , know i 'd be here ? sam : come on , you 're a creature of habit -- tuesdays , you go to the gym , and then you come here for breakfast . see ? i 'm a pi , it 's not that big of a deal . julian : well , listen , i 'm , uh , glad to see you since i literally thought you 'd never speak to me again . sam : well , it 's gon na depend how this conversation goes . julian : okay . what 's the topic ? sam : sonny claims that he 's done with the business and he 's going legit . julian : [ chuckles ] okay , well , that 's never gon na happen , even if sonny 's convinced himself otherwise . sam : okay , well , all i care about is keeping jason out of it . so if you ever want a chance at a relationship with me or your grandkids , you better care , too . julian : okay , i 'm sorry . did -- did i miss something here ? because i thought that , uh , jason was n't working for sonny anymore . sam : no , he 's not , but sonny made it very clear that he wants jason back . remember when you came to tell us about that threat from garvey ? jason dropped everything without even a thought of his own life , his own safety , to go warn sonny . julian : okay , well , look , just because he went to warn a friend does n't mean that he 's thinking about going back to the mob . sam : [ stammers ] maybe . but jason has a loyalty to sonny , and i know sonny . he will do anything he can to get him back in , and i 'm not gon na have that . julian : okay , listen , listen , listen . i applaud your initiative here , but just keep talking with jason . sam : talking to him ? ! no , i ca n't talk to him ! julian : he 'll listen to you . sam : no . there is no guarantee in that . i ca n't have that . if this were on you , what would you do ? julian : look , if you 're looking for a guaranteed solution , there 's only one option -- you got to get rid of sonny . [ scene_break ] jason : sonny , thank you , but ... this just is n't for me . sonny : it 's a legitimate op - opportunity . if you do n't want to put any money in , i - i got enough money to do it myself . i just -- i want you to participate 'cause no one can handle a big operation like you do . jason : you can hire somebody . there 's a lot of great people out there . sonny : i -- yeah , i know , but this is an above - board , nothing dirty , no ulterior motives . it 's about as vanilla and mainstream as it comes . jason : [ sighs ] look , sonny . there are a lot of people out there -- namely , your enemies -- who are gon na have a hard time believing that you 're out of the business . and if i 'm involved , they 're going to assume that it 's a front and that i 'm taking over your business . i ca n't risk that . [ scene_break ] bobbie : honey . carly : [ sighs ] bobbie : i know you want to protect michael , but he knows what nelle has done to this family , and he has made the decision to forgive her . and he 's not gon na accept you ushering her out of his life . and the one thing you do n't want to do is back michael into a corner because you might not like the choice that he makes . carly : so i have two options -- if i do things my way , i get rid of nelle and i could lose michael for good , and if i do things your way , i 'm stuck with nelle , who 's gon na take michael away from me out of spite . those two choices suck . bobbie : honey , i 'm not only your mother , i 'm a schemer from way back . did you honestly think i would n't give you a third option ? [ scene_break ] nina : please , nelle , if julian jerome shows up in the office when i 'm not here , please notify me immediately . nelle : yes , i 'm sorry . i should have done way more to warn you that he was here . i apologize for that . nina : it 's okay . i 'm just putting you on notice . nelle : okay . nina : our esteemed publisher , julian jerome , is a liar and a criminal , and he tried to sabotage this magazine . that 's the kind of slime we 're dealing with . please never , ever , ever trust julian jerome , and there 's somebody else you should n't trust . nelle : yes ? nina : i was gon na say valentin , but that 's not true . i mean , so many people in town have alleged he 's done horrible things , but honestly , [ sighs ] there 's not one ounce of proof that he 's committed a crime or broken a law . [ sighs ] he 's generous . nelle : so ... you 're happy he 's back ? nina : no ! no , no , no . i 'm -- [ scoffs ] please . we 're divorced . i signed the divorce papers , he signed the divorce papers . no , no , no , no . no , it does n't matter to me . it 's over .

[ scene_break ] sam : that 's all the advice you have to offer me ? the only way to deal with sonny is for him to die ? julian : hey , hey . i 'm just saying it 's not easy to walk away from the business , you know , especially for a guy like sonny . it 's almost impossible . i mean , he 's considered a threat . he just knows too much . unless he turns the territory over to someone he trusts . sam : and that would be jason . and while sonny tries to escape , he 's gon na suck jason back in . and i 'm gon na lose the peace that i 've tried to build for my family . [ ice clinking loudly ] sonny : there 's only one way to break my hold on jason . too bad you do n't have the guts to make it happen yourself . sam : i need to finish what i started . julian : excuse me ? sam : i 'm sorry . can you , um , can you do me favor ? do n't tell anyone about this conversation , not even my mother . julian : yeah . you know , sam , it means the world to me that you reached out , but is everything okay ? sam : [ laughs ] i came to you for help . obviously , i 'm not okay .

[ scene_break ] sonny : [ sighs ] jason : sonny , you know this is n't personal , right ? sonny : yeah . you got to take care of your family , right ? keep them safe , do what you got to do , and i ca n't argue with that . jason : i have every belief in you . if you say you 're getting out , then you 're gon na get out . sonny : yeah . jason : are we cool ? sonny : [ laughing ] yeah . look , i - i got to go talk to michael 'cause , uh , elq 's interested in the place , and the last thing i want is a bidding war with my son . uh , i 'm gon na ask michael if he 's interested in a joint venture . jason : that 's a good idea . sonny : yeah . so ... oh , uh , you go ahead and hold on to the papers . not -- not for yourself , just to give michael an honest opinion , 'cause i do n't want him to think that i 'm trying to force him into the business . sonny : i 'll tell you what . i 'm happy to look it over . and not that you need my opinion , but , uh ... i think you can make this work . [ cell phone ringing ] sonny : i got to get this .

[ scene_break ] carly : did you not just give me a lecture about how i need to suck it up and let michael date nelle ? come on , mom . bobbie : no . no , i told you that your plan to deal with nelle was overkill and would probably backfire and drive michael away from you . that does n't mean that there are n't other ways to handle this -- a plan to separate michael from nelle and not cause you any blowback . carly : okay . well , is this theoretical , or do you actually have a plan ? bobbie : mm , as a matter of fact , i do . we have to gather the facts about nelle and then arrange for them to become known to michael , and then all you and i have to do is sit back and watch michael choose to leave her on his own . carly : okay , but what kind of facts are you talking about ? we already know that nelle has a shady past . bobbie : yeah , some of it . but do you really think it ends there ? nelle is a bad girl . i mean , find one secret , surely there are 100 more . carly : i like your plan . i really like your plan . you know , it only works if two things are true -- first , if nelle has skeletons in her closet , and second , if we can dig them up . bobbie : oh , no . this only works if you keep your distance . carly : what are you talking about ? how do we dig for dirt ? bobbie : `` we `` do n't . hey , felicia . yeah , it 's bobbie . remember that job you did for me earlier this year ? yeah , yeah , about nelle . well , at the time , you told me you thought there was more to find . well , carly and i would like you to find out the rest of the story now .

[ laughing ] josslyn : are you saying we ca n't complain about our parents ever ? oscar : hell , no . i just mean there should be a limit . josslyn : okay . deal . what should the code word be ? oscar : something that 's meaningful to the both of us . i know . fireflies . josslyn : that 's perfect . sonny : josslyn . it took a while to track you down . can i talk to you for a second ? josslyn : um , no . my break just ended , actually , so i need to go back to work . sonny : look , it 's just gon na be a little bit , just one second . just give me one second . josslyn : i said no . sonny : i promise you it 's good news . oscar : how many times does she have to tell you ? she does n't want to talk . sonny : look , kid . i do n't know who you are to josslyn , but this does not involve you . oscar : are you going to leave joss alone ? or are we gon na have a problem ?

[ scene_break ] jason : my first memory is waking up in the hospital . you know , strangers coming in and out , claiming to be my family . my girlfriend , you know , always asking the same question -- `` do you remember me ? do you know who you are ? `` and always the same look of disappointment when i could n't answer and did n't remember . it was -- it was like it was hurting them to see me . so i avoided all of them , including the doctors who kept telling me i was hopeless . i met sonny . i built a life where the injury did n't matter , where it actually worked in my favor . because i do n't -- you know , i do n't really feel fear , so that makes me good at my job . but michael feels things . you know , he 's scared and he 's confused , and i have no -- i have no frame of reference . if i do n't understand what he 's dealing with because i 've never felt it myself , then i 've got nothing to offer . you know , it 's the first time that i 'm failing michael , and it just makes me feel like i could -- you know , i could fail you . sam : are you cheating on me ? jason : no . sam : no ? would you ? jason : never . sam : never . have you lied to me , used me , treated me like i was cheap or irrelevant ? jason : no . sam : no . then what makes you think you could fail me ? [ thunder ] jason : because i have brain damage , and i pretend it does n't exist , but it does . i do n't think or feel like a normal person . sam : like a normal person ? jason , what is normal anyway , huh ? normal is way overrated . until i met you , normal meant being used and dumped . it meant lying to myself to protect my heart and having it stomped on anyway . what is so great about that ? jason : if i could understand how michael feels , i could help him . sam : you have been helping him , jason . you help him every day . you are his touchstone . without you , that little boy would be so lost right now , and i do n't care what a bunch of self - important doctors say . i do n't even care how you feel deep down inside , because when i look at you , i do not see damage of any kind . i see an extraordinary human being who feels as profoundly as anyone i have ever known . i experience your capacity for love every single day of my life . i saw it in your eyes and i felt it in your touch when that baby we wanted so badly was inside of me . and i saw your grief when we lost her , and your sorrow mirrored mine and so did your healing . so do not -- do not talk to me about a bunch of doctors who do n't know you say about your inability to love . because i know better . [ scene_break ] jax : men put a lot of stock in pride , and sometimes we trip over that when we do n't think we 're fulfilling our -- our traditional role . you know , inadequacy can turn to anger and then to frustration , which turns to more anger , and then before you know it you 're trapped in this vicious cycle . elizabeth : hmm . sounds like the voice of experience . jax : yeah , yeah , i 've been there myself . but in my case , the -- the dependency was brought on by a physical injury . in lucky 's , it 's financial which , you know , is still the same emotion . you know , i 'm sure lucky feels the need that he has to provide , and now you 've taken that away from him , which is a huge ego blow . not to mention , you know , the way you 're providing -- by carrying another man 's child . elizabeth : cameron is another man 's child . jax : yes , but cameron 's father is dead , so there 's room for lucky in his life . maybe that 's one of the reasons why you and lucky bond -- you know , cameron 's need to see lucky as a father figure . elizabeth : yeah , and how willing he is to assume that role . jax : i 'm just sorry that this has caused problems for you . i really am . elizabeth : no , jax , none of this is your fault . i wanted to be a surrogate for you and courtney . i just -- i really hope lucky can get past his reservations and be with me through this experience . but if he ca n't -- i mean , if what we have is n't solid enough to see us through -- i guess it 's better we know now . [ scene_break ] carly : are you telling me that after a grand total of one month together you want a divorce ? lorenzo : i want to know why you married me -- the truth . and if it was yet another way of lashing out at sonny then , yes , i want a divorce . carly : i married you , even though michael begged me not to , even though my little boy refuses to live in the house with me . i am your wife , even though it put distance between me and jason , the person i trusted most in this world , even though that there is a rift between courtney that may never be fully repaired . lorenzo : all right , i realize you 've made sacrifices . carly : if i wanted to go back to sonny , i would be back with sonny . but i did n't want to go back to that pathetic , bitter cycle of love and betrayal and anger . i wanted something better . i did n't want to be in a marriage where i was always sorry and wrong . i 'm not perfect , lorenzo . i never claimed to be perfect . i only claim to love you , but maybe flawed love is n't good enough . maybe you can only truly love an idea .

[ scene_break ] jesse : when i came into your room , the only thing i was thinking about was finding a place to hide . then i looked over and i saw you . i remember moving to your bed . the whole time i was screaming at myself inside , `` stop . `` it was reckless and dumb . i could n't afford to be seen , but i wanted to be there when you opened your eyes . i knew they 'd be the most amazing blue . i should 've kept running . we both would be better off . maxie : speak for yourself . [ thunder ] jesse : you 're stranded in a cabin . a hurricane is coming down , and so is a bad cop that wants you dead . what part of any of that is an improvement on your quality of life ? maxie : the part when i 'm with you . i believe in you , jesse . you are a good person and i want to help you prove that . and i want us to come out of this on the other side and have a chance to get to know each other in the real world , in real time . but if that 's not meant to happen and we 're about to die , there 's no one else i 'd want to be with right now .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i know that it 's been a struggle with you and jason -- for the past few months in particular . i mean , you have amelia -- she 's drudging up your background and making your life difficult -- that -- that ca n't help . jason 's in pentonville , it completely cuts off your communication . you two believe in each other . if you keeping doing -- sam : we do n't . we do n't -- that 's the thing . there 's too many lies , too many secrets . jason , of course , had his lies and his secrets , and i had my secrets , and we just do n't trust each other anymore . alexis : well , but there 's always an opportunity to make something right again . sam : okay , fine , but why does it have to be me that has to make it right when jason is the one who has the biggest secret of all ? alexis : do you think that jason caused you pain on purpose ? sam : whatever he meant , it feels like a knife in my heart . and i can make all the excuses in the world , but i hate the fact that jason has ruined everything that was wonderful between us . [ scene_break ] jason : i do n't want you taking risks to see me . elizabeth : to quote someone i know -- `` it 's my choice and i 'll deal with the consequences . `` jason : okay , you know what ? that 's not fair -- using my own reasons against me . elizabeth : well , i 'm sure carly found a way in to see you . jason : yeah , she -- she pretended to be my wife . elizabeth : well , that was going to be my second choice . she probably could n't wait to tell you about the fight we had , how i defended lucky 's right to arrest you . jason : no , she never mentioned a fight . elizabeth : oh . well , carly attacked lucky for arresting you and i took his side , and now i feel like i betrayed you and i 'm sorry . jason : look , i 'm not in here because of lucky ; i 'm in here because i 'm being accused of murder , and for violating bail . elizabeth : a part of me wants assurance that you would never kill another man , and the other part knows better than to ask . i better go . it probably would n't be good for a detective to burst into tears while questioning a prisoner . please be careful . jason : i will . elizabeth ? please do n't take a chance like this again , okay ? if everything is fine with jake , then there 's no reason for you to see me . [ scene_break ] patrick : so this is what it 's like to have a mother who rappels in on a rope ? robin : yes , my mother is all about her work , so i do not want her knowing that jerry jacks is james craig . patrick : i thought you could tell her anything . robin : no , because she will spend her entire visit trying to bust him , so , shh , okay ? hi . anna : hi . robin : hi , you changed . anna : yes . well , i could hardly meet the rogue of rock ' n ' roll in my work clothes , can i ? robin : well , i just thought maybe you wanted to take a rest at the hotel or something . anna : are you trying to get rid of me already ? oh , no , come on ; `` please `` take me to see eli . `` please , `` please . come on , please . robin : i happen to have a patient right now . patrick : yeah , i -- i 'm busy . anna : oh , you know what ? you 're just lame . fine . it 's not like i need a chaperone or anything -- i 'm a grown woman , for god 's sake . oh , my god ! eli love -- i ca n't believe it . robin : mom ? anna : hmm ? robin : maybe i should show you where it is , just in case you get lost . anna : i broke into the louvre , and i cracked the code at mi6 . i can certainly find my way around this joint . so , uh , critical - care wing -- this way ? robin : uh , no , it 's that way . anna : oh -- they moved it . robin : please tell me she is too mature and sophisticated to fling her underwear at him ? patrick : i can pretty much guarantee you she 's not wearing underwear .

[ scene_break ] sonny : where 'd you get this idea that kate howard is n't who she says she is ? amelia : hmm , not confirming or denying -- tells me plenty . really , sonny , it 's not hard to figure out . i observed the two of you together and you did n't read as new acquaintances . sonny : i do n't think it 's anybody 's business . amelia : well , kate howard is a major media figure . i 'm a journalist ; i know a big story when i see it . sonny : you mean tabloids , right ? amelia : well , `` infotainment `` is the polite term , but we do n't care what it 's called , as long as it sells . sonny : mm - hmm . amelia : celebrity dirt is our bread and butter . the fashion icon known as kate howard sprang out of thin air when she was 18 . i followed the paper trail that we all leave , found out that constanza louise falconeri of bensonhurst changed her name , her history , her whole past . i assume that includes her history with you ? sonny : i 'm sure you did your homework on me a long time ago , right ? so you know that i do n't make idle threats . you go public with this story , and i 'll go public with what 's been going on with us . do you understand what i 'm saying ? i may even make insinuations like , you know , maybe i bankrolled `` everyday heroes . `` amelia : you did n't . sonny : paid off a few affiliates , you know ? your broadcast license wo n't be worth the paper it 's printed on . amelia : come on , you 're not serious ? sonny : oh -- dead serious . you do what you want with sam . i do n't care . but you leave kate howard alone . [ scene_break ] alexis : if what you 're telling me is that you think that your relationship with jason has run its course , then i 'm sorry . i honestly know how disappointing that is for you , because it 's very disappointing to have a vision for the future and how you think your life is going to be with that person and it does n't turn out that way . sam , if that 's how you feel , then my only advice to you is to get out of it as gracefully as possible , and sooner is better than later . sam : right . right , because it -- it -- i mean , it wo n't hurt any less , it 'll just be over with sooner . alexis : you just are making it very clear that you and jason seem to have failed each other somewhere . and if you 're ready to do this , sam , do it , because if you 're going to hang on beyond that point , it will get ugly . sam : i hate that love was n't enough . i do , and that it was just one more bad decision . alexis : why are you being so hard on yourself ? do you think no one else has ever done this ? do you know how many women would do the same thing that you did ? i mean , jason -- he 's difficult to resist . he 's handsome , he 's charismatic , he 's strong , he 's unpredictable , he 's dangerous , he 's a bad boy . and even though you want him to change , you hope that he does it for you . but you also know that he wo n't , because the signs are all over the place , and you ignore them -- sam : i think i -- i get the feeling that we 've changed the subject on to you .

[ scene_break ] maya : wow . you look gorgeous . maxie : thank you . it 's by this fabulous new designer -- gilberte . he 's a protégé of nea llorente . maya : ah , love her . looks like her protégé is not gon na be a protégé any longer . maxie : i know . seriously , `` crimson `` did a photo shoot on this , and i could n't wait to wear it . although , i kind of feel like i 've wasted it tonight , 'cause i agreed to go out with matt hunter , and i have no idea why . i mean , it 's just to make spinelli jealous . maya : i have to ask -- why do you try to convince everyone that you 're not attracted to matt , when it 's perfectly obvious that you are ? matt : maya , you just have this way of taking the words right out of my mouth .

[ maya chuckles ] maya : sounds brilliant . ethan : yeah . well , i thought so , too , until i tripped over an exhaust fan and nearly fell off the roof . but i managed to grab onto the ledge , but there was this something sticking out , and it just sliced my hand open . so , there i am dangling about 30 meters above the ground with blood streaming down my arm . and i just started laughing . maya : uh , you know what ? i ca n't do this . [ ethan snickers ] [ scene_break ] kristina : so , what , they just randomly assigned me a study partner that i do n't even know ? alexis : no . your history teacher wanted the transfer student to be with his most organized and prepared student , which i think is a big compliment . i really am impressed that you 've been able to be such a good student , considering everything that 's been going on with you . kristina : well , at least the new girl wo n't know that her study partner is a nut case who let her boyfriend beat her up and then lied about it . alexis : you are not a nut case . all right ? you 've been through a traumatic situation , and you 're getting a little bit better every single day . maybe she 's a really nice girl , and you 'll have yourself a new friend . kristina : i hope so . all the girls at my school are really getting on my nerves . what 's her name again ? alexis : taylor . uh -- [ knock on door ] alexis : that must be her right now . kristina : okay . taylor : you must be kristina ? i 'm taylor .

[ elevator bell dings ] nelle : maybe another time . carly : maybe . nelle : mm . carly : enjoy , baby . nelle : well , that was interesting . michael : what ? i 'm sorry . nelle : i 'm not sure who 's more shocked . me or carly . michael : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry if i threw you . i - i just -- it felt like i should reach out and make a gesture in the moment . throw her off her game . you know , maybe -- maybe do some good . nelle : yeah , you were doing your michael thing . what if she had said yes ? michael : well , then we would have had the shortest lunch on record . in a place that has no knives . nelle : [ scoffs ] michael : but , look , she did n't try and take your head off . that 's progress , right ? nelle : oh , yeah , yeah . that 's absolutely progress . for sure . let 's go . [ scene_break ] felicia : [ sighs ] i 'm not defending nelle . at all . but i do n't think i would be a good friend if i did n't warn you that i think you 're making a mistake . bobbie : well , i certainly did n't see that coming . felicia : i just do n't want to see you wind up alienating michael . i know that he 's your grandson , but he 's a man , and he gets to do whatever he wants . if you and carly keep at this , you 're only gon na wind up pushing him away . if you want my advice , friend - to - friend , you 'll suck it up and let michael live his own life . [ scene_break ] scott : hey , serena , uh , your mother just told me about what happened to your grandfather . i 'm -- i 'm sorry that you had to be there for all of that . [ sighs ] i 'm sure you were a huge comfort to gail . you guys are probably making the arrangements now . um ... so , give me a call as soon as you get this message , okay ? uh , we love you , and , um , maybe it was good that you were there . goodbye . lucy : that was a nice message . i 'm -- i 'm sure serena 's just swamped , like you say , with all the details and arrangements and such . scott : yeah , probably . uh , well , listen , um ... thanks for coming by , lucy . um , you can go . lucy : oh , um ... that 's okay . you know , i took the whole entire day off . scott : well , you know , that 's good . then maybe you should , uh , go get yourself a pedicure or a facial or something , because , um , you know , i can take care of myself . lucy : by downing that drink ? scott : [ sighs ] i 'm just getting started . lucy : hey , you know , i do n't like to speak ill of the dead , but lee did have his battle with alcohol , so ... given that fact , do you really think getting drunk is a fitting way to honor him ? scott : why not , lucy ? ! i was a disappointment to him in life ! so why should n't i be a disappointment to him in his death , as well ? ! [ scene_break ] nathan : i 'm out . amy : nathan , wait ! nathan : no , amy , look , i have a job , okay ? a career that i love and enjoy , and , as i 've explained , would not be helped if people found out that i was the face of `` ask man landers . `` so this has been fun , but ... amy : hear me out . it 's good news ! nathan : no . not from where i 'm standing . amy : it is ! my brother was on a very long wait list for a special surgery at the va hospital in dc , and the approval just went through ! he 's having the surgery ! nathan : well , okay , that -- that is good news . congratulations . i know what that means to you . amy : yeah , it 's great . except it means i 'll have to take a brief leave from gh to be there with him and help with his post - surgical care . nathan : uh , well , chet is really lucky to have a sister like you . i just do n't see what this has to do with me still being `` ask man landers . `` amy : i do n't have enough paid vacation , so i 'm gon na have to take a leave of absence from the hospital . and the book has n't even been published , yet , so there 's no money coming in . so i 've arranged for a little gig to help tide me over and cover expenses . nathan : what kind of gig ? amy : `` ask man landers `` is giving an interview ! [ giggles ] [ scene_break ] josslyn : i 'm so sorry you had to deal with sonny . please , please do n't tell anyone about this ! oscar : i wo n't , i swear . i mean , besides , it was my fault . i should n't have gotten in his face like that . josslyn : you would n't have to if i had just let him say what he had to say . god , it would have been over and done with . oscar : now that the terror 's starting to pass ... i 'm kinda glad i got to meet him . he 's cool . josslyn : well , he did have the good sense to compliment you on your improvised defense tactic . oscar : [ chuckles ] i 'd do it again , you know . you have the right to talk or not to talk to whomever you want , joss . josslyn : ease up , tough guy . you ca n't ever do that to sonny again . oscar : i ca n't not stick up for you . josslyn : i can handle my stepfather . and i do n't need you sticking up for me . even if you do it really well . oscar : [ chuckles ] josslyn : time to get back . [ footsteps approaching ] [ scene_break ] sonny : hey . carly : hey . oh , god . it is so nice to see you . you have no idea . sonny : what ? what ? you had a bad day ? carly : [ sighs ] well , i ran into michael on his way to his lunch date with nelle . sonny : ohh . carly : yep . and you would have been proud of me because i was very polite , i did n't scream , i did n't yell . i even kept my cool when michael invited me to join them . sonny : he what ? ! carly : yeah . i mean , you know michael -- he 's a strategic thinker . he only invited me so i would n't object to him and nelle . he did n't really expect me to say yes . sonny : maybe he was genuinely trying to make an effort . you know our son . carly : you think i should have gone ? sonny : that 's not what i 'm saying . carly : i mean , look , i know i 'm supposed to suck it up and put on a brave face , but i can not stand the position nelle is putting michael in . she 's driving a wedge between us , sonny . sonny : do n't think like that . it sounds to me like you 're making progress . carly : mm . sonny : unless you 're playing them . is that what you 're doing ? [ chuckles ] you 're gon na soften up nelle so you can drop the hammer ? carly : the one who played all of us is nelle . and as far as i know , she 's still at it with michael . i 'm just trying to put my family back together ... in difficult circumstances . can you blame me ? sonny : hell , no . [ scene_break ] bobbie : nelle took advantage of morgan 's death to sabotage carly 's family , to pretend she slept with sonny , whether or not it really happened . now she 's moving in on michael . it 's just really hard to watch and do nothing to help . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] felicia : think it over . weigh the risks against the benefits . and if you still want to investigate nelle , i 'll take the case . bobbie : oh , honey , i do n't want to ask you to do something you 're not comfortable with . felicia : the only thing i 'm uncomfortable with is having you take it to another pi . if you need to move forward , i 'll take the case , and i 'll help you . let me know . bobbie : okay . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] lucy : lee was not disappointed in you . scott : what do you know about this ? i know you think you 're doing me a favor , lucy , but , you know , i really want to be alone . lucy : no ! no , you just asked me a question , and i 'm gon na answer it . now , look ... i know i was not lee 's favorite [ sniffles ] of your many exes , but i did manage to do something pretty wonderful . i helped bring serena into this world . and from that moment on , lee and i , we were in each other 's orbits . come on . you know me . i sense things , and i want you to believe me . your father loved you very , very much . scott : no doubt about that . i mean , after my mother died , he adopted me , took care of me , school , law school . yeah , he loved me , lucy . but what did i do ? i failed him every step of the way . you know , when my mother married my father , i thought , `` oh , lucky for me . i mean , this is a great guy . `` [ sighs ] and what did i do ? i just took advantage of him . and i took him for granted . [ scene_break ] nathan : forget it . amy : one interview ! just a few questions about the book and the column , and what it 's like to be the man with all the answers ! nathan : i 'm not the guy with all -- i do n't have any of the answers . the person who does is not gon na be able to say anything . amy : i have a plan . i can shepherd you through the interview . nathan : no , amy , no . there 's not gon na be an interview ! look , i agreed to be the face of the brand . i even let you put my picture on the cover of the book . but that 's it . that 's as far as i go . amy : nathan , please . you know how tricky healthcare is now . i need all the money i can get for my brother , and that 's no lie . [ sighs ] we still have to survive after the surgery . both of us . nathan : okay , look , say i do this , all right ? what happens the next time , or the time after that ? `` ask man landers `` is popular because of you . people love the blog . they want the advice that you give , okay ? and as your audience grows , so is the need for interviews , okay ? and you ca n't hide behind me forever . maybe now is a good time to tell everybody that you 're `` ask man landers . `` amy : i 'm sorry i dragged you into this . believe me , i know it 's not fair . i really do appreciate everything you 've done for me . you 've been amazing . do n't worry . i 'll figure something out . [ elevator bell dings ] nathan : [ sighs ] amy , wait . how 's this interview gon na work ? amy : [ giggles ] oh ! [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] sonny : i - i was able to give josslyn some good news , for a change . carly : what do you mean ? you saw josslyn ? sonny : yeah , yeah . i tracked her down at -- at lila 's kids . carly : okay , what kind of news ? sonny : well , i , uh -- i pulled some strings and got jax 's deportation order rescinded so he can come back here anytime that he wants . carly : aww ! josslyn must have been thrilled . sonny : yeah , uh , i think she was glad . um , but , uh , i do n't think -- it 's gon na take a little while to make things right . carly : hey , hey , hey . all that matters is that you 're trying . and i really appreciate that . and josslyn will get there eventually . she will . sonny : well , i mean , we were real close at one time . carly : mm - hmm . i know . sonny : may -- maybe not as close as her and oscar . do you have any idea ? anything about this guy ? carly : did you say oscar ? [ scene_break ] oscar : so you like my swagger , huh ? josslyn : you do okay . but ego check -- you got lucky with my stepfather . do n't push it . oscar : me and sonny ? [ clicks tongue ] we 're good . josslyn : [ scoffs ] you know , morgan was the only one that could bust on sonny and , you know , not get challenged . oscar : yeah . i wish i could have met him . josslyn : me , too . i think he really would have liked you . oscar : just like ... generally ? or any specific reason ? josslyn : well , mostly because morgan liked anyone i like . but also because morgan was a really spontaneous person . it got him into trouble sometimes . but he did things in the moment ... leaped before he looked . oscar : do you think i 'm like that ? josslyn : well , you were when you stood up to sonny . and also when you asked me to meet you on the footbridge . that was pretty spontaneous and out of nowhere . you know , doing something just for fun , because it seems like a cool idea -- that 's very `` morgan . `` oscar : okay . a think - outside - of - the - box person . that 's cool . josslyn : only to a point . you have to promise not to challenge my stepfather like that next time . oscar : look , you have my word . as long as you promise there 's a next time . [ scene_break ] nelle : is she still watching us ? michael : i do n't know . i 'm a little too lost in your eyes to take notice . nelle : aww . michael : [ chuckles ] um , yeah , yeah , yeah . we 're still the center of attention . nelle : we should just go . we can get chinese . michael : no . no . i want barbecue . i 'm craving it . look , look . [ sighs ] the sooner everyone accepts that we 're a reality , the better it will be . nelle : hmm . well , maybe `` everyone `` will be gone by the time i get back from the bathroom . [ whispers ] or i 'll jump out the window . michael : no , do n't do that . you 're buying . nelle : ha ha ! michael : [ sighs ] not gon na say hi ? bobbie : i did n't want to interrupt . michael : you 're my grandmother . please interrupt . bobbie : michael , i do n't feel like pretending that i approve of this relationship . or that it 's not breaking carly 's heart . michael : okay , look , you -- you and my mom have every right to your feelings . all right , but , look , this is my life , and i have to be true to myself . bobbie : [ scoffs ] well , i think it 's ironic that you would use the word `` true . `` because nelle would n't know the truth if it jumped up and bit her in the face . she 's using your kindness against you . and i suspect that your relationship is just another ploy for her to hurt carly . michael : okay , grandma , look , i 'm really sorry you still feel that way . but nelle 's a good person . she -- she got a -- a raw deal in life , and she made some bad choices as a result , but she 's trying to make up for it . look , i would -- i would have thought that you and mom could relate . i mean , you made your fair share of mistakes , right ? but you always had people around you to forgive you , give you second chances , third chances . why should n't i do that for nelle ? [ scene_break ] scott : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] you know , lee never , ever forgave me for goofing things up with laura . lucy : come on . you were ju -- you were just kids . scott : yeah . we were . we were young . we were in love . and lee was thrilled for us , you know . i - i was gon na start practicing law . lucy [ sighs ] i was gon na be a real success story . and then everything just ... [ sighs ] just went downhill . [ scott remembers ] scott : ca n't you just put this aside and -- and help me out ? lee : open up all the old wounds ? who helps me , then ? scott : it 's gon na be different this time . lee : scotty , a father / son relationship is not something that you just sort of put on and then let go at your convenience , like a role in a play ! you burned all of our bridges a long time ago , and i just do n't think i have the heart or the desire to build them again ! scott : what if my life is on the line ? ! lee : what if mine is ? 'cause it is ! lucy : [ sighs ] no . no . no , you do n't . okay , listen , that is enough . if you want to feel sorry for yourself , go ahead . you 're completely entitled . but you do not get to rewrite history , okay ? [ voice breaking ] now , you 've been a jackass ! yes ! yes , you have . and have you done some really bad things ? yes . and did you disappoint your father sometimes ? yes . but that was a long time ago . i know you . that is not the sum total of who you are . remember , i was there . i was there when you fell in love with dominique , and that was magic , and it was a gift , and ... scott , there 's us . [ chuckles ] we , together , brought serena into this world . and you were a changed man . all that -- that stuff between you and lee , it just melted away ! he saw this new man , and when he saw serena , those tears in his eyes , they were n't tears of sadness . they were tears of joy and pride and love for the man that you had become . ca n't you see this ? do n't you see ? yes . you may have made some mistakes and disappointed lee sometimes . but your father ... he forgave you . [ scene_break ] oscar : i 'm gon na be late . josslyn : me , too . oscar : i mean , it 's good news about your dad . now you do n't have to go all the way to abu dhabi to see him . josslyn : not that he 'd have me visit him there anyway . you know , i 'm not sure i 'd want to . i check the temperature every day . it was 107 degrees yesterday . so i 'd have a choice between staying inside , in the air conditioning ... or risking heat stroke . oscar : that 's no good . better to spend the summer somewhere you can actually go outside . josslyn : for sure . things here are definitely better . [ scene_break ] carly : oscar is the boy my mother caught drinking with josslyn . sonny : i actually got a read on the kid . he did n't seem that bad . carly : sonny , i do n't care if he 's the future pope . i 'm not cool with some boy peer - pressuring my daughter into drinking . especially since she only has one kidney . and josslyn should know better . and if she 's gon na make these bad decisions , i 'm gon na have to step in . carly : but what ? josslyn is too young . [ chuckles ] i have to intervene , sonny . and i will . [ scene_break ] michael : so what 'll it be ? and please do not say salad , because the baby back ribs are calling our name . nelle : i heard what you said to bobbie . are you sure you 're ready for this ? michael : look , i , um ... will always respect my family 's wishes . but i ca n't live my life to please them . nelle : and what if you 're wrong about me ? michael : am i ? nelle : no . [ scene_break ] bobbie : i thought it over carefully , and i want to move forward . felicia : [ chuckles ] i had a feeling you 'd say that . i 'm at the metro court . do me a favor . have carly call hr for me . i want to get access to nelle 's employee records . i want to see if the contact numbers that she 's provided are real . bobbie : are you going back to atlanta ? felicia : if i have to . but something tells me the real dirt on nelle benson is where she got her start -- in florida . [ scene_break ] nathan : okay , so what is this interview ? amy : it 's a podcast thing . i 'm sure hardly anyone will even hear it . nathan : i hope so . especially nobody who 'd recognize me . i 'll probably sound like an idiot . amy : i told you . i have a plan . [ giggles ] nathan : yeah . [ scene_break ] lucy : here . scott : oh , come on . for crying out loud , lucy . i had two drinks . i do n't need any coffee ! lucy : you 're gon na take it , and you 're gon na like it , 'cause i made it just the way you always want it . i remembered . scott : i appreciate you coming by . i 'm sorry i snapped at you . so -- but ... i just really want to be alone . lucy : nope . ca n't do that . i promised serena . scott : i 'll tell you what . here . i 'm gon na release you from that responsibility , okay ? so , um , i 'm -- i 'm just gon na go . bye . [ knock on door ] scott : hey , lucy , whoever that is , just tell them i 'm not here . lucy : [ gasps ] oh ! [ sobs ] okay , okay . um , hey , you know , uh ... when you see who 's here at the door , i think you might change your mind . scott : serena ! [ next_on ] alexis ( to valentin ) : we have something important to discuss . laura ( to spencer ) : are you planning some kind of a move against your uncle ? scott ( to lucy & serena ) : did you orchestrate this ? amy : this is gon na work , nathan . kiki ( to ava ) : i brought you a special surprise , guaranteed to lift your spirits . dante ( to sonny ) : i 've got bad news . | someone knocks on scott 's door at the metro court he opens it to discover lucy . she has some bad news . his father , lee baldwin has passed away . serena called her up and informed her . she wanted scott to receive the news in person and not over the phone . scott starts to drink but lucy begs him not to . it would be disrespectful to the memory of lee who suffered from alcoholism . scott does n't care . he thinks he was a failure of a son . lucy feels that scott is wrong and believes that lee was proud of him . lee decides to go into his bedroom when someone knocks on the door . scott does n't want to talk to them . lucy opens the door to find their daughter serena . lucy tells scott to come see who it is . scott smiles when he sees it is serena . elsewhere , nathan and felicia are talking at the floating rib . felicia is offering nathan the chance to spend time with her and mac on saturday and sunday 's . she knows it must be hard having maxie out of town and maxie is worried that nathan is hiding something . nathan claims he is n't as he gets calls and texts from amy . nathan goes to the hospital where amy tells him he needs to go on a podcast as man landers so she can get more money to take care of chet . nathan reluctantly agrees . |
