[ scene_break ] patrick : i 'm surprised alan backed ms. sneed down . robin : why ? he is chief of staff . patrick : still a risk calling him in . robin : not really . he was stone 's doctor , and he was the first one that diagnosed me . i knew he 'd back us up . patrick : think he 's going to fire her ? robin : she 's just doing her job , you know . patrick : by interfering with emergency care ? i mean , if somebody was watching over that woman , there 'd be a lawsuit . what was up with the wisecrack about her personal life choices ? like it 's the 1980s . robin : unfortunately , a lot of people still feel that way . patrick : yeah , but still -- it 's like she was acting like it was 25 years ago and nobody knew anything about the disease . robin : right , a lot has changed . but if the patient has aids , there is still a concern . the risk of exposure is minimal in a controlled environment , but it still exists . patrick : how can you defend that woman ? that patient deserves the best medical care that we can give her . robin : i agree . but for all we know , ms. sneed could be out there scaring everyone out of signing up for the surgery . it is very possible that no one will operate on someone with aids . patrick : you really think we 'll have trouble finding a surgical team because she has aids ? robin : people surprise you . the ones that you think will be okay , are n't . the ones that you think would run stand up and deliver . patrick : okay . well , if we have to do it , we 'll do it alone . robin : that 's arrogant , even for you . epiphany : they 're prepping the o.r . , but we have a staff problem . patrick : guess you were right . fine . well , then if nobody 's going to help us , then we 'll do it by ourselves . epiphany : i 'm not finished . patrick : well , what is there to finish ? i mean , i knew we 'd run into problems in this backwater town . epiphany : will you ask dr. drake to review this list , please ? robin : my god . epiphany : you have three people for every position , so make up your minds . patrick : you 're on the top of the list . epiphany : i 'm doing my job . we all are . so do n't go around thinking that you 're anything special . robin : hmm . patrick : you ready ? robin : she 's wrong . patrick : about what ? robin : hmm , you may be a little special -- on a good day . [ scene_break ] emily : do n't be too hard on alfred . it 's kind of charming . nikolas : well , he needs to stop playing matchmaker . i mean , you have a life of your own . he has no right dragging you into mine . emily : i love john , and i 'm glad to see him and help out in any way i can . nikolas : emily , if you do n't let me say something to alfred , he 'll be dragging you out to wyndemere for candlelight dinners in no time , i promise you that . emily : yeah . well , i 'm kind of surprised that he has n't given up on me as a lost cause , but does he try to match you up with anyone else , like robin ? nikolas : no . no . no , he knows better than that . emily : what do you mean ? nikolas : alfred has figured out that i was the happiest i 've ever been when i was married to you . [ scene_break ] maxie : you 're feeling guilty . lucky : i 'm sorry , but this can never happen again . maxie : but if we need each other -- lucky : yeah , elizabeth is my wife . i know we 've been having our problems , but that 's just the way marriage is . and it does n't mean i do n't love her . maxie : i know . lucky : maxie , i never wanted to hurt you . maxie : hey , you know , it 's -- it 's not like we expected this to happen . if you need anything -- lucky : yeah . you 're amazing . i mean , i would n't have been able to do this without you . but it would n't be right if we kept it going . maxie : whatever you want . lucky : promise me one thing . that you 'll keep this between us and no one will ever know . maxie : i promise . lucky : thank you for everything . [ scene_break ] jason : if you called about the building permits , do n't bother . alexis : that 's not why i asked to see you . i heard about sonny . i heard about his bipolar condition . and ric mentioned to me that you did n't want him to go to therapy . jason : i do n't care what ric told you , okay ? i 'm fine with the treatment . i want him to get help . alexis : good , good . i 'm glad to hear that . now , do you think that he will continue his therapy and take the medication ? jason : well , sonny knows that morgan and kristina could be at risk , and he wants to do whatever it takes to set a good example for his kids . alexis : i 'm really glad to hear that . jason : yeah , he wants the best for them . alexis : i hope you believe that , jason . jason : i do , yeah . alexis : because i want you to understand why it was so important to me to have sam stay away from you . [ scene_break ] ric : hey . sam : hey . you going for a swim ? ric : yeah , i got to do something to cool off . sam : why ? why , what happened ? [ ric sighs ] ric : i do n't know -- it -- do you know it 's my fault that sonny 's bipolar ? and that i 'm a terrible husband and father because i did n't let alexis in on the whole thing from the very beginning ? and i 'm also a very bad person because i 'm trying to help my only brother . sam : you want to hear my big crime against alexis ? ric : it 'd improve my day . go ahead . sam : i did n't tell her that sonny was bipolar , either . ric : really ? you 're not normally this upset unless it has something to do with jason . sam : please leave jason out of it . ric : i 'm sorry . i just -- sam : no , seriously . i am not defending him for once , okay ? i 'm just -- i 'm tired of following him around . i 'm tired of waiting for something that is never going to happen . ric : well , do you really mean that ? sam : yes , i mean it . i finally realized that jason and i will never be back together . i just want it to be over now . this pain has got to stop . ric : well , that 's not going to be easy , sam . sam : i know . i know , ric . ric : well , i do n't think -- i -- i do n't think you do . you 're going to have to do something that will change everything between you and jason irrevocably , forever . [ next_on ] carly : i love that little boy . nikolas : that 's why i 've decided that you should be able to see him . patrick : the patient is suffering end - stage aids which means once i cut into ms. gilbert , i can not afford any panic or second thought . robin : you cut yourself . you have to stop . elizabeth : b.p .

[ ric chuckles ] ric : well , she only lived with jason for three years . i 'd say sam knows enough to put him away single - handedly . [ scene_break ] amelia : well , you have an interesting dilemma . you can use your testimony to punish jason for having a son with elizabeth , or you can cover for him , even perjure yourself hoping your show of loyalty will win him back . sam : yeah , but i am the one who broke up with him . amelia : was it easier on your pride to leave before he threw you out ? sam : jason would not have thrown me out . amelia : oh , please . you stood by and watched his son get kidnapped . i do n't know jason well , but i ca n't imagine he can forgive that . sam : well , that 's good , because i do n't want or need his forgiveness . i would n't take him back if he came crawling on broken glass . i was with jason for years , and he showed me absolutely no loyalty . he did n't trust me enough to tell me the most important thing that ever happened in his life . he destroyed everything that was good between us . amelia : so you 're going with option a , then -- revenge ? [ scene_break ] sonny : ric 's got that recording , you know , with the -- alcazar saying your name , and -- before a gunshot and a thumping sound . jason : yeah , but he -- they have nothing . no witnesses . and they will not find alcazar 's body . sonny : i understand that , but , you know , diane says ric still has a strong case . and she 's doing everything she can to discredit the recording , but the jury 's still going to hear it . and ric subpoenaed another witness . jason : who ? sonny : sam . how bad can she hurt you ? jason : whew -- huh . she does n't know anything about alcazar . sonny : okay . sam is very angry . she feels you betrayed her , so that 's reason enough for her to cooperate with ric . jason : i do n't -- i do n't think she would . sonny : i do , in a heartbeat .

[ scene_break ] [ noah whistles ] robin : so where did you and my mom go last night ? noah : oh , she -- she said that she was sick of fighting off the groupies , so i think -- i think she just wanted to get me alone so i could , you know , focus . patrick : to rehearse ? noah : yeah , yeah , i still do n't have all the songs down yet , so -- robin : and where did you do this , exactly ? noah : my place . we worked pretty late , so i whipped us up a little pasta dinner . patrick : that was generous of you . noah : well , anna is determined to mold me into eli love by the time of the concert . it 's the least i could do . robin : so you spent the whole time rehearsing ? noah : yeah , we worked till 2 : 00 this morning . patrick : wow . now , that 's dedication . noah : well , you know , lifebeat does a lot to fight aids . i mean , the least i can do is get this thing down as best i can , right ? robin : so my mom and you did n't talk about any personal stuff , right ? your life as a surgeon , her many adventures ? noah : she told me some pretty amazing stories , yes . robin : oh . did she also tell you that she 's basically an adventure junkie ? i mean , she is an incredible mother , do n't get me wrong , but -- i mean , as far as relationships go , it 's not so -- noah : wait , wait , wait a minute . look , who said anything about a relationship here ? robin : i 'm sorry . i was just curious , that 's all . patrick : so how are the songs coming ? you going to be able to fake it ? noah : uh -- ahem -- well , anna said i got to put , you know , more emotion into the singing , you know , so -- oh , boy -- she -- she said that i should picture having great sex while i 'm singing .

[ scene_break ] jerry : you know what , carly ? your impulsive streak is rapidly losing its charm . carly : i will be the best friend you ever had . all you have to do is keep jason from being convicted , so stop dragging your feet and make it happen . jerry : ooh . a bit impatient , are n't we ? carly : jason is being transferred from pentonville today . his trial starts tomorrow . jerry : well , not to play the devil 's advocate , so to speak , but you may not need me . you see , jason 's attorney appears to be quite competent . i 'm sure she 's prepared an excellent defense . carly : ric is calling more people to testify against jason , and his case is getting stronger by the minute . you need to find someone else who could have killed alcazar . find some piece of garbage off the street -- i do n't care . [ jerry chuckles ] jerry : i think there may be a cleaner solution . [ scene_break ] [ jason sighs ] jason : well , i do n't want to talk about sam anymore . sonny : she 's a witness for the prosecution . jason : i did n't discuss business with sam , sonny . sonny : she 's turned out to be a con woman . she will lie convincingly if she has to . you get what i 'm saying ? she was desperate to have a child with you . then you turn around , you have one with elizabeth , so what does she do ? she gets so twisted , she watches a woman kidnap jake . she is sitting on a mountain of rage . whatever loyalty she had for you is gone . she will bury you on that stand , unless you bury her first . jason : forget it . sonny : she aided and abetted the kidnap , and you turn her in , you cast doubt on her testimony . jason : then i would have to admit that jake is my son . sonny : you should have done that months ago ! jason : this is not helping me ! i get that the choice i made for jake is not the choice you would make for your own kids but i 'm asking you to respect my decision . and as far as sam 's testimony -- you know what ? you 're right . she could lie . i mean , she could tell the truth . and if she does tell the truth , she ca n't say anything about what happened , because she knows nothing . sonny : what about elizabeth ? she 's been subpoenaed , too . jason : elizabeth was with me when you called that afternoon . sonny : and you are positive that she wo n't testify that she heard you get that phone call ? jason : sonny , i do not want her to protect me . i want her to tell the truth and get off the stand before ric pushes her into a corner , and she 's forced to admit that jake is my son .

[ scene_break ] ric : personally , i ca n't see anything more compelling than behind - the - scenes access to the story of the law finally triumphing over organized crime . amelia : we have a backlog of stories we 're already working on . ric : but the public is fascinated by gangsters . crime and punishment is big business these days . you should think about your ratings . amelia : our audience tunes in to see sam , dressed as appealingly as possible , and maneuver her way through life - threatening situations . they might be alienated by a format change . ric : why are you resisting this , amelia ? amelia : maybe because you 're obviously using me for some agenda of your own . ric : you scratch my back , i 'll scratch yours . amelia : well , i 'm still not seeing how this benefits me or my show . ric : i will provide you with unprecedented access to every step at the trial , beginning with allowing you to document jason 's transfer from pentonville to the pcpd . could break new ground . impress all those network executives with your initiative . amelia : while you impress the mayor and the voting public with yours . ric : i 'll be getting the bad guys off the streets . televising jason 's trial would be a public service . amelia : hmm . doing this for the good of the people -- that 's a bit of a stretch , do n't you think ? ric : let me enlighten you here , ms. joffe . jason morgan is a professional killer . he 's careful and methodical , and up to this point , he thought he was way too good to be caught . he was wrong . i am going to put that murdering son of a bitch behind bars for the rest of his life , and i want it documented on camera and broadcast it prime time . [ scene_break ] sonny : airtight alibi . that 's right . carly : have you seen jason ? what are you doing to get him out of this ? sonny : if you want to help jason , you have to stay calm and rational . carly : that 's not an answer . it 's not an answer , sonny . sonny : ric is being overconfident . we 're going to use that against him . carly : you are not going to let jason go through with this trial . sonny : diane is a great lawyer , carly . carly : how many times has jason risked his life for you ? you 're alive today because of jason . his life and his freedom are on the line . you have got to do more than recommend a good attorney , sonny . sonny : ric is expecting me to make a move . i 'd be a fool to play into his hands . carly : okay . so ? so you have a plan ? what is it ? sonny : i did n't say i -- i did n't say i had a plan . carly : okay , all right , fine . you 're not going to tell me because you want me to have deniability . i get it . i get it . sonny : stop ! carly : but if you need an alibi , i am here , okay ? sonny : stop right there . think about how you want this to turn out . carly : i know how i want this to turn out -- i want jason free . sonny : okay . hypothetically speaking , if he breaks out and is on the run for the rest of his life , he 's never coming back . how are you going to feel about that ? carly : i would miss him every day . but i 'm not selfish enough to want jason to stay here and fight if that means he 's going to go to prison for the rest of his life . i would rather know jason was free , even if i had to fly to the other side of the planet to see him .

[ max chuckles ] [ scene_break ] sonny : all i know is what carly told me over the phone . warren went after kristina , michael intervened to protect his sister . warren walked away , came back with a gun . alexis : what are we doing here ? why are n't we over there ? sonny : no , where are you going ? alexis : why ? sonny : we ca n't get in , it 's in lockdown . alexis : what ? ! sonny : i made calls . somebody grabbed nikolas and elizabeth 's kid . alexis : you said warren had a gun . did anyone get hurt ? sonny : ethan lovett got shot . i do n't know how he 's doing . mac got hit pretty bad . alexis : mac ? sonny : yes . they took him to the o.r . in time . my understanding is he shot warren to protect kristina . alexis : oh ! my god , what about michael ? sonny : michael , too . michael was in between kristina and the gun . alexis : oh , my . [ sighs ] all this time i thought something bad was going to happen to her because of you . turns out i 'm the one who almost got her killed . [ scene_break ] jason : michael should have been able to get on with his life after sonny 's trial , but that did n't happen , because of you . dante : consider the consequences if claudia died at the cabin . what 's the follow - up for michael if you kill me that kid needs to move on with his life , not deal with another -- jason : you 're the reason he went to prison in the first place ! for what happened to him there . what he had to go through . what he 's going to have to carry for the rest of his life ; the permanent damage that was done to a kid who did n't deserve it because you were arrogant ! were wrong , dante , but you would n't listen . you blew michael 's life apart . why should n't i kill you right now ? [ scene_break ] diane : i know you think you are in control of sonny , that you 're manipulating him , but listen to me -- you 're not . claire : you seem to have managed . diane : oh , i 'm completely immune to the charms of sonny corinthos . however , i am more than susceptible to those of his sexy , spontaneous bodyguard . max : hmm . diane : you big lug . max : [ chuckles ] you know , the boss is much easier to deal with when he 's in a relationship , so you might want to move things along , if you know what i 'm saying . claire : there is nothing to move along , okay ? diane : oh , come on . sonny 's been hitting on you for weeks . you probably went over to his house , his office , just to set him straight . two of you argued , and then he gave you an earth - shattering kiss . max : and now 's about the time she gets a really nice gift . diane : that 's right . so my guess is that sonny has found some reason to summon you , and you are on your way to tell him up close and personal that the two of you have no future together . am i close ? claire : i have no idea what you 're talking about . diane : that means i 'm right on track . final warning -- you have no hope of outmaneuvering him . so i just have one request . please use birth control . max : hmm . [ scene_break ] alexis : with the exception of a couple things , every bad thing that ever happened to her was because of me . sonny : that 's not true . alexis : yes , it is true . it is true ! it is too true ! i 'm the one that told her that she should go out with kiefer . i encouraged her . i said he 's a real nice boy , until i ran him over with my car . and then mac , oh , god , he tried to help my kid , and look what happens to him ! sonny : alexis , the one who should be blamed for this is warren bauer . the son of a bitch is lucky to be dead . look , you should not blame yourself -- alexis : i 'm blaming myself ! i can feel bad if i want to ! you get to blame yourself for everything that happened to michael . let me blame myself if i want to . [ crying ] [ scene_break ] michael : maybe it 'll hit me later . kristina : if you had n't of come when you did , i know mr. bauer would have beat me . and then he wanted to blame you and have you arrested . michael : but it did n't happen . kiefer 's dad ca n't hurt anybody anymore . kristina : i wish i could be as calm about this as you are . michael : maybe i 'm a little too messed up to be upset . carly : i think we all handle stress differently . kristina : tell me about it . my mom will have a coronary . michael : well , dad was actually kind of calm . well , for dad . carly : sonny and alexis are going to be grateful that you both are okay . that 's all that really matters to a parent , you know . that your kid 's okay . [ scene_break ] lucky : call me when you have an update . elizabeth : so did you find anything on this jane morgan ? lucky : well , there 's no criminal record . there 's not a lot of records , period . she just moved to port charles a few months ago . they 're checking for referrals and references , but so far , they 've come up empty . elizabeth : so if she is franco 's plant , then is the name jane morgan , is it a joke , is it a taunt to us ? what is it ? lucky : i do n't know . but we 're going to find out . i 'm going to have her paged . nikolas : what ? you do n't really expect her to answer , do you ? lucky : well , she might , especially if she does n't want us to think she has anything to hide . nikolas : she might realize we 're onto her . elizabeth : what if she panics , what if she hurts aiden ? [ scene_break ] dante : you kill me , there are two ways this could go -- you 're apprehended , do maximum prison time for killing a cop , or you take off , spend the rest of your life on the run . either way , you 're gone . no way you go back to the life or the people that you -- jason : you know what , i thought about that . and guess what ? i 've decided it 's worth it , as long as you pay for what you did to michael . the people i care about will be better off if you 're not around . dante : you 're going to kill me because you want to . right now , you do n't give a damn who would suffer from it . you need to be thinking about michael . [ scene_break ] maxie : thank you , matt . matt : um , you 're welcome . maxie : you , dr. hunter , are truly me hero . [ scene_break ] alexis : how many times can kristina be lucky ? you know , i perfect hindsight , i 'd have taken the girls and moved them the hell out of port charles . sonny : it 's never that simple . you know that . alexis : i did the best i could with her . i really did . sonny : okay , you know what ... look at me , at me . look at me . kristina 's all right . her brother protected her and that 's what we need to focus on . we ca n't think about you understand what i 'm saying ? nikolas : let me take you back to your room so you can get se rest . aiden is still missing ? lucky : nurse morgan did n't answer the page . you know , the baby 's ankle monitor still has n't set off the alarm . elizabeth : she probably took it off . nikolas : you said yourself it 's a special procedure . if they do n't take it off -- elizabeth : who knows how long she 's been planning this ? she could have figured out a way around the security system before the lockdown started , and has our baby halfway out of the country by now . [ scene_break ] dante : michael would blame himself . not only for my death , he 'll go all the way back to claudia 's . is n't that enough guilt and misery for one kid to carry around ? add to that whatever messed up thing happened to him at penton -- jason : do n't talk about that ! dante : i wo n't say anything about that to anyone . look , i get that you hate me ! i hate myself for what happened to michael . but this is n't about you and me ! what do you think happens to michael if you kill me ? is your own satisfaction and need for revenge more important than his well - being ? if it is , then shoot me right now .

[ scene_break ] wes : i -- i do n't know . hold on -- can you see amelia ? sam : yeah . i mean , she 's there . it 's just hard to tell what 's going on . elizabeth : oh , please , god , do n't let jason be hit . maxie : what are we looking at ? elizabeth : it looks like someone was shooting at jason when they were transferring him back from pentonville . maxie : oh , my god , my dad or coop could be there . coop , it 's maxie . call me as soon as you get this , i want to know you 're okay . i think someone 's trying to kill jason morgan outside the police station . sam : i do n't think they 're trying to kill him , i think they 're trying to break him free . [ scene_break ] ric : this stunt is n't worthy of you , ms. miller . [ gunshots ] ric : but then again , i have seen how ethical attorneys seem to misplace their moral compass once they start representing sonny corinthos . diane : `` you `` are now going to lecture me on ethics and morality ? do n't let me interrupt you , because i need a good laugh . ric : let 's just stop the lawyerly dance , okay ? clearly , this was some feeble attempt to try and break jason out . now , if you have any information , you better share it with me right now and cooperate . diane : do n't insult my intelligence . you 're the one who chained my client like a rabid dog ; you are the one who made sure that everyone in this town knew exactly when you 'd be parading him by this police station ! you may as well have painted a -- a target on his back ! ric : i believe that 's called `` deflecting . `` diane : okay , you are so terrified that you 're not going to win a conviction in court , you set jason up like a sitting duck for his enemies , hoping that one of them would take him out -- and do n't pretend you did n't ! ric : oh , so this is my fault -- carly : you 're not fooling anybody , because everybody knows how you work , and you know what ? you 're not going to kill jason ! ric : the station is in lockdown , nobody is going anywhere ! carly : lucky , you get out there and you protect jason because you owe him ! [ gunshots ] jason : is everybody okay ? lucky : all clear . put the gun down . do n't make me say it again . [ scene_break ] noah : all right , it 's time to nip this in the bed -- bud . look , with all due respect to you , what anna and i do or do n't do is none of your business . okay ? you have no right to -- to make obnoxious demands or ask -- or ask improper questions . i mean , do n't you guys have something better to do ? robin : hmm . that 's it -- they 're definitely sleeping together . patrick : yep , he 's on his way over there as we speak . i 'm so sorry . robin : you ? you have nothing to apologize for . anyone with eyes can see that my mother glommed on to this whole eli love impersonation project . because eli was n't available to her in a sexual way , she latched on to the next best thing -- your poor , unsuspecting father . patrick : whoa , `` poor , unsuspecting `` ? look , do n't be fooled . if anybody 's taking advantage of this situation , it 's my father , the lady killer . i mean , before my mother was around , he was notorious , and we all know how a roving eye never settles . robin : is that a fact ? patrick : okay , you know what ? cast that evil eye somewhere else -- this is n't about me . i 'm afraid the -- the whole eli love thing is turning my father into a monster . [ scene_break ] kate : again , i 'm flattered that our night together meant so much to you . but at the risk of sounding callous , i really need to get sonny : here 's a suggestion . why do n't you drop the airs for a second and get real ? kate : hmm . okay , define `` real . `` sonny : you know , let your guard down . stop working so hard at -- at being kate howard , who 's better and classier than i am . look , i mean , just -- i 'm not asking you to -- to act like you did in high school , because i know that 's not who you are anymore . i want to get to know who you 've become . it 's not like i 'm -- i 'm saying , `` hey , you know , change your life for me . `` just -- just drop some of the walls down , you know , take them down . kate : okay , i think i -- i -- [ phone rings ] sonny : i 'm sorry . i got to -- i got take this . yeah ? diane : you need to get down here to the pcpd posthaste . someone just tried to kill jason , or your plan to break him out just blew up in your face . [ scene_break ] amelia : this man 's been shot , we need an ambulance . never mind , he 's -- he 's dead . lucky : you heard that ? the guard 's dead . [ siren ] det . rodriguez : hey , guys . lucky : hey , rodriguez , what do you got ? det . rodriguez : well , the other guard took a bullet in the leg , we got three dead shooters . he 's -- he 's some kind of sharpshooter -- no wonder sonny keeps you employed . lucky : all right , i want you guys to stay with patrick for the ambulance . let 's get the prisoner inside . [ scene_break ] carly : jason ? ric : keep ahold of her . carly : jason -- you let me talk to him , or you can throw me in jail . ric : that can be arranged . carly : let me talk to him ! jason : carly , calm down . ric : put him in interrogation one . carly : we 're going to get you out of here , jason , we 're going to get you out of here . diane : carly -- `` carly , `` listen to me . i know that this is very upsetting , but jason is in the safest possible place he could be for the moment . no one can get to him in lockup . carly : except for ric . diane : yes , well , there is that . det . rodriguez : one of our guards was killed . lucky : one of our guards was killed . we also have three dead assailants . reports say that morgan took them out with one of our guard 's gun . ric : oh . well , it looks like we can add three more charges of murder . carly : you son of a bitch -- diane : no , carly -- carly , do n't . do n't . [ scene_break ] maxie : well , thank god my dad and coop were in the field when all of that happened , but can we talk about jason ? he was handcuffed and shackled and being shot at from every direction , he still walked away without a scratch . what is he -- like superman ? elizabeth : what ? sam : what ? are n't you relieved lucky did n't get hurt ? elizabeth : of course i am . sam : really ? it 's -- just it 's hard to tell . wes : is that wardrobe from the metro court boutique ? maxie : uh , yeah . obviously , amelia ca n't check it out , but you can just tell me where to drop it off . wes : let 's go . follow me . elizabeth : jason could 've died , and all you can do is taunt me ? you do n't deserve him . you never did . sam : i have had just about enough of your preaching and posturing . get out of my studio . elizabeth : gladly -- but a word of caution before i go . if you use your testimony to get revenge on jason , you may feel vindicated in the moment , but when the consequences sink in -- [ sam snickers ] elizabeth : you will hate yourself more than you 've ever hated me . maxie : sam , you 're not actually thinking of testifying against jason , are you ? [ scene_break ] [ jason sighs ] diane : thank you . i need some answers . what the hell just happened out there ? did you know that that was coming ? did sonny set this up ? jason : `` did -- `` those guys were n't trying to free me , they were trying to kill me . diane : and they very nearly succeeded . all right , what 's your take ? jason : alcazar 's men avenging his death . diane : okay , here 's what troubles me . video footage now exists of you gunning down three men despite being shackled and handcuffed . that is compelling proof that you are a trained killer , and it would n't surprise me at all if ric lansing set it up that way . [ scene_break ] ric : well , you should n't have bothered showing up , sonny . as you 've already been informed , you 've been completely barred from getting anywhere near jason today . sonny : i 'm not worried about that , ric , because diane 's good at going over your head to overturn -- ric : well , that 's not going to happen , not today . but let me ask you -- how does it feel to know that your plan failed so miserably ? because as i see it , jason 's still in custody , and now i have -- count them -- four charges of murder against him . sonny : i did n't plan an escape attempt , ric . if you were n't so full of yourself , you 'd see the logic of the situation . why would i set up my own men for jason to take down ? ric : we both know that you would sacrifice 20 men to get jason back , and that 's what you do in your business -- you devour your own . sonny : it was n't me . but if we 're talking likely suspects , then i can see why you would think it was me -- with the cameras rolling . alexis : what the hell happened here ? ric : what are you doing here ? alexis : i 'm preparing a motion to have sam taken off the witness list . ric : well , unless diane miller has appointed you co - counsel , you 're not on the morgan case . alexis : i 'm sam 's attorney , which makes me a part of this case . and if this chaos is any indication of the mess that you 've made , it looks like i 'm going to be around for a while . [ scene_break ] sam : so elizabeth had absolutely nothing to do with my decision . i broke up with jason because i decided to be my own best friend for a change . my needs were n't being met , and i am totally convinced that he was only staying with me out of a sense of obligation , so , naturally , where do you go from there ? maxie : but do n't you still love him ? sam : yes . sure . and it 's really hard letting go , especially looking at that tv . the first thing i want to do is go over there and help him , and the truth is he would n't take it . he would rather have carly 's support -- or elizabeth 's , apparently . maxie : yeah , what 's going on with you two ? when i walked in here , the tension was so thick , i had to wade through it . sam : well , aside from the fact that elizabeth is an irritating prig , she and jason have a special kind of relationship -- sort of like with carly -- and , you know , it just got to be enough . maxie : say no more . if anyone understands how hateable elizabeth is , it 's me . she used to tear into me from her high , moral perch , telling me what a horrible person i was for using lucky . but she does n't even really love lucky ; she just wants an in - house daddy for her kids . but please benefit from my experience . no matter how much you want elizabeth to suffer , cut your losses and run into whatever comes next , because once elizabeth pulls that sympathy card -- man , she ca n't be beat . sam : well , do n't be so sure . maxie : any kind of specific payback in mind ? sam : well , it 's just , you know , i know things elizabeth would do anything to keep secret . and i would n't mind blowing her perfect little world all to hell . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : gram , lucky was n't even outside when the shooting started , he 's fine . okay , i -- i 'm calling because i wanted to see how your day was going with cameron . oh -- oh , good . well , okay . well , i 'm home if you need me . all right , i love you , too . bye . [ jake fusses ] [ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : well , that was a terrifying reminder as to why we can never be with your real daddy because no matter how much jason loves you , his life is just too dangerous . come here . oh . [ scene_break ] carly : i knew it . you crazy bastard , you almost killed jason . jerry : what are you doing ? carly : i am going to do what i should 've done a long time ago -- i 'm turning you in . jerry : `` that `` would be the very last mistake you make . you guys [ scene_break ] robin : okay , i am trying to be an adult about this quasi - incestuous relationship with my mother and your father , but i 'm sorry , it 's a little bizarre for me . patrick : i totally , totally agree . robin : i mean , gross - out factor aside , they do n't even know each other . this person that my mom is trying to make into eli love is n't even noah . it 's just some sort of nebulous idea -- some parts noah , some parts eli . patrick : okay , so that 's why i think my dad is the key here . he is who he is . now , as soon as this whole rock - star - fantasy thing is over , your mom is going to wake up to my grumpy father and basically rappel out of the room using the sheets . robin : okay , what if she does n't ? what if she decides to stick around ? can you imagine how awkward ? patrick : oh , god -- then it 's our fault that they 're standing side by side making small talk , trying not to look at each other in their eye at dinner and family occasions . robin : `` family -- `` [ patrick sighs ] robin : so does that mean you want to be with me forever ? patrick : okay , try not to kick me when i 'm down . robin : okay , maybe we need to take a step back and not give in to exaggerated fears . your dad did n't actually confirm sleeping with my mother . and the re that i think about it , she would n't do that . patrick : no ? robin : no . i mean , she has a thing for eli love , not noah . patrick : yes , but your mother is teaching my father to be eli love , teaching him to sing like him , dance like him , move like arty like him . and an affair would explain my father 's recent attitude change -- nothing loosens a guy up like new - lover sex . robin : ugh , this is a disaster . okay , not only did my mother grow up to be a groupie , she 's grouping your father . will you please just make it stop ? [ scene_break ] diane : i have to go , there is lots to do . jason : okay , what 's your -- what 's your game plan ? diane : well , first , i have to nip this media circus in the bud by petitioning the court for a continuance and change of venue . after that debacle , there 's no way we are going to get a fair trial in port charles . so i 'm thinking manhattan -- jurors in manhattan do n't even blink at , shall we say , `` complicated `` cases . [ scene_break ] max : look , i 'm telling you , i 'm -- i 'm on the list of people that can go in and see him , okay ? go talk to your chief . [ scene_break ] jason : diane ? looks like max has a problem getting in . can you -- can you help him ? diane : i 'll try . you hang in there . [ scene_break ] max : i need you to call him . listen , get somebody else up here , all right ? diane : officer , is there a problem ? officer : not as far as i 'm concerned . `` no visitors `` means no visitors . diane : yes , well , this man is here to assist me in preparation for my case . officer : well , i do n't care . lucky : it 's okay . mr. giambetti can see the prisoner . max : thank you . diane : well , well , well . support sometimes comes from the most unexpected sources . lucky : do n't get used to it . [ scene_break ] max : that was one hairy transfer . i 'm glad you 're okay . jason : yeah , me , too . why 'd you need to see me ? max : ric would n't let sonny in here , but he wants you to be aware . jason : oh . max : okay , our tail on sam checked in , he spotted elizabeth going into sam 's tv station . he followed her in , heard a pretty heated exchange . jason : do i even want to know ? [ max sighs ] max : it 's not good . you know , elizabeth seems convinced that sam 's going to use her testimony to get back at you . [ scene_break ] jerry : instead of throwing what could very well be your last chance to see your good friend jason , i suggest you adopt a civil tone and tell me all about this shooting you claim i orchestrated . carly : our deal was for you to free jason , not have him killed . jerry : i have no idea what you 're talking about . carly : really ? three snipers opened fire on jason in front of the police station in the exact spot you were standing in not two hours ago , obviously planning something . why did i trust you ? i should 've known better . jerry : i have nothing to do with this shooting . you see , breaking jason out of custody would be an exercise in navel - gazing . jason would never trust me , or if he did , he 'd be gone for good -- which would win me your hostility and not the gratitude and loyalty i so long for . [ jerry sighs ] carly : why were you at the pcpd ? jerry : because i was assuring myself that jason would n't escape , because i 've invested so much time in having him acquitted . but there 's a pretty sure bet who wants him free . so if this was a botched breakout attempt , i suggest you take out your frustrations on that ex - husband of yours -- sonny . [ scene_break ] alexis : what happened here today proves that this undertaking is lethal , and there is absolutely no way that i 'm going to let you drag sam into this so she can get herself killed . ric : nice tactic -- like the alexis of old . too bad it 's not going to fly . my office is providing security for all the state 's witnesses . [ alexis laughs ] alexis : you 'll forgive me if i do n't find that very reassuring . ric : sam is not a mob enforcer who is up on charges for killing lorenzo alcazar , so your argument , dear , has no merit . alexis : we 'll see , `` dear . `` [ scene_break ] ric : i 'm sure you 've overheard . i 'm going to be doubling security , so whatever attempt you want to get to break jason out is done . sonny : i do n't care if you quadruple security ; you 're not going to stop me from making sure jason 's okay . amelia : he is , sonny . jason 's in conference with his lawyer -- at least , that 's what i heard . after today 's sudden outbreak of violence , the d.a . has suspiciously kept me at arm 's length . officer : it seems as though the dead shooters -- they all have venezuelan i.d.s . sonny : do you need a building to fall on you ? it was for alcazar -- even you should be able to get that by now , ric . amelia : d.a . lansing , any comment on the bungled security attempt for jason morgan 's transfer ? ric : no comment . [ scene_break ] patrick : believe me ; throwing cold water on our oversexed parents is something i could wholeheartedly get around . but how do we do that without giving them the license to butt into our lives at any time they want ? i mean , you saw the way my father reacted -- he was stonewalled . robin : i ca n't even believe i said it . i mean , one minute i was thinking it , and the next it was just out there . and now , of course , because i said it , he 's thinking about it . patrick : what do we do ? robin : a complete 180 -- act like we do n't even care . that way , it takes the drama out of it , and they wo n't have to rebel . patrick : you know we 're dealing with our parents like a bunch of oversexed adolescents ? robin : yes . unfortunately , that 's exactly what they are . patrick : okay , my dad , 12 : 00 . noah : ahem . patrick : hey . done for the day ? noah : hey . yeah , yeah , i 'm actually going to see -- see anna . we 're doing a little bit more rehearsing -- we 're actually going to do the part in eli 's show where he pulls an audience member up on stage , you know , and sings to them ? so , it should be fun . robin : well , that 's nice . patrick : yeah , yeah . uh , have a good time . noah : see you guys . [ patrick sighs ] robin : i need a drink . patrick : this is war . it 's either them or us . [ scene_break ] lucky : one hell of a day -- three men just tried to kill jason while we were transferring him back to lockup . elizabeth : i know i was at sam 's studio when the feed came in . lucky : then you know he 's all right ? what were you doing at sam 's studio ? elizabeth : well , sam had mentioned that she was being called as a witness for the prosecution and -- you know , in jason 's trial . i just wanted to make sure that she was n't going to use her testimony to get back at jason . lucky : why is that your business ? [ scene_break ] sam : oh -- damn you , jason . [ knock on door ] sam : hold on . sam : what ? max : sam , uh , i wo n't take up much of your time . i just left jason , he 's fine . i thought you deserved to know . sam : yeah , uh , i did n't -- i did n't let myself worry too long . jason has this gift for self - preservation . max : yeah . well , i should be going , but if you need any help moving , just let me know . sam : okay . max ? thank you . i mean , thank you for coming over like this . i 've always appreciated how nice you were to me , and if -- when you see jason again , can you tell him that i 'll be out of here in the next day or two , and i guess i 'll just see him in court , then . max : yeah , um , i heard ric subpoenaed you . look , i could have my head handed to me for this , but sometimes you have to go out on that limb . if there 's any way that you can look past the breakup -- i mean , while you 're on the stand -- sam , i 'm sorry , it 's just -- sam : no . max : look , i 'm worried about jason . i guess he 's really not yours to worry about anymore , is he ? [ scene_break ] mayor floyd : do you have any idea how bad this looks ? my platform is law and order , and now we 've got gunmen opening fire in front of the damn police station ! ric : relax , relax . it 's going to work for you . mayor floyd : do n't try and spin this one , lansing . ric : it 's proof that morgan is a killer , and it 's going to make you look a lot tougher on crime when i get a conviction . mayor floyd : i think i 've heard that before . and since you 're so connected to this particular defendant , i 'm starting to think that maybe you should recuse yourself and let special prosecutor baldwin take this case . ric : no , no , you can not do that , absolutely not . i am going to be the one that puts morgan away for life . mayor floyd : that just proved my point -- you 're too involved . ric : i 'm motivated . mayor floyd : okay , lansing , i 'll back you . but you better be right about this . i 'm going to be sitting there in that courthouse . ric : oh , the law - and - order mayor is going to supervise work ? mayor floyd : i want the public to credit me with morgan 's conviction . you see , they 're going to see me sitting there in the courtroom . they 're going to hear me giving updates during my press conferences . and the very second i start to doubt that you can get a win , i am going to pull you out of there and put baldwin in . [ scene_break ] sonny : is this as bad for jason as i think it is ? diane : yes , it is . that 's why i 'm off to the courthouse now to petition for a continuance and change of venue . ric : are you really ? well , what a coincidence -- i 'm going there , as well . why do n't we take a nice walk together , nice and friendly ? but just so you know , i 'm not allowing any delays . diane : i 'll be back . sonny : okay . hey . carly : did you do this ? were you trying to break jason out ? sonny : hell , no . if i had put this plan in motion , it would 've been a different outcome . jason would be long gone instead of sitting in a police station in more trouble than ever . [ scene_break ] jason : how 'd you get in ? amelia : oh , i twisted the d.a . 's arm . i thought you might like an update -- the three shooters i.d . 'd as venezuelan . jason : i figured as much . amelia : nice you can be so calm about men who tried to kill you . i assume they worked for alcazar , wanting to avenge him ? all they ended up doing was getting themselves killed and murdering that poor guard . jason : that never should 've happened . seemed like a decent guy . you know , he was telling me about how he was planning a vacation with his family and -- amelia : i 'd be dead , too , if it was n't for you . that 's not the first time you 've saved me . jason : maybe you should find someplace less dangerous to do your tv show . amelia : no , i have a better idea -- i 'm going to keep you from going to jail . [ scene_break ] patrick : red or white ? robin : red . do you realize how unhealthy this is , borderline dysfunctional , where we race home to get a bottle of wine so we can obliterate the image of our `` parents `` making out with each other ? where is my wine ? patrick : right here . robin : oh , good . i need a drink . oh , that 's so politically incorrect , is n't it ? patrick : we 're not going to become overnight alcoholics just because our parents are dating . robin : they are , are n't they ? my mom and your dad are dating ? patrick : yes , they are , and there 's nothing we can do about it -- at least , not tonight . so , let 's put this bottle of wine to better use . a toast -- to us , who we are together , separate from our parents ' insanity . robin : hear , hear . hmm . patrick : another suggestion . robin : what ? patrick : i say we turn our phones to voicemail , go to the kitchen , prepare a meal with whatever is in there , have a nice , slow , leisurely meal where we talk about anything but your mother , my father , and eli love . we 'll open up the skylight , catch a breeze off the harbor , have dinner by the window and watch the sun go down , leave the cleanup for tomorrow morning , and go straight to bed . robin : do you realize that you have single - handedly managed to salvage this day for me ? patrick : well , i have ulterior motives -- i miss you . robin : it 's the downside of working together . we 're either caught up with a patient or hospital politics . we bring it home -- me as much as you -- and it cuts into what should be our time together . patrick : yes , but not tonight . robin : no , not tonight . what about dinner ? patrick : dinner does n't have to be ready till sunset . you look beautiful by candlelight . [ scene_break ] carly : at least jason 's okay . i mean , you should 've heard the shots -- they were bad . sonny : you were here ? carly : yeah , i was here . i wanted to come out and make sure he was okay , but at the same time i was terrified to open the door . sonny : well , i got here pretty fast . you were nowhere to be found . carly : i went home to check on the boys and make sure they were okay , in case this was bigger than the pcpd . sonny : thank god it was n't . carly : yeah . i 'm starting to really worry that they 're going to get a conviction , and there 's not going to be another time to set him free . [ scene_break ] alexis : hey . sam : hi . alexis : i need your signature . sam : my signature -- what for ? alexis : i 'm going to put in formal request to the judge , and with any luck , you wo n't have to answer to ric 's subpoena to testify . sam : wow . on what grounds ? alexis : well , obviously , the two of you were n't married , but you did live together for three years , so i 'm going to argue that palimony status should entitle you to spousal privileges . sam : impressive . really , i thank you for your concern -- i am grateful -- but i will not need these papers . you , take it . i fully intend to testify at jason 's trial . i 'm going to tell the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's obvious that sam blames me for her breakup with jason . i wanted to confront her so she could take her anger out on me , instead of using her -- her testimony to lash out at him . lucky : why is it your job to protect him ? elizabeth : he saved our son . i owe him a favor . lucky : how far would you go ? elizabeth : huh -- what do you mean ? lucky : would you , maybe , slant your testimony to protect jason ? elizabeth : i am not going to manipulate my testimony . i intend on telling the truth -- that jason was with me at the hospital the day alcazar disappeared . he got a phone call -- who it was from , i do n't know . lucky : you never told me any of that before . elizabeth : well , it was n't really worth mentioning . jason came by to see me and the baby , he -- he got a phone call , and then he left -- that was it . lucky : come on , elizabeth , you 're not that naive . you have to realize that you were there when jason got the call to kill alcazar . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm -- i 'm glad that you were n't hurt . no offense , i did n't set out to save you -- i was actually just trying to save myself -- so i would really appreciate you not doing any kind of news feature on my case . amelia : i get that you 're a very private person , but you do n't understand the true power of the media , i do . and i 'm going to use it to save you , whether you like it or not .

jax : you sure you want to watch tv ? carly : yeah . jax : um ... [ carly sighs ] carly : you know what ? jax : what ? carly : i ca n't believe that i almost had a stroke . jax : honey ... carly : just when things like that happen , it really makes you count your blessings , you know ? i mean , look where we are now compared to a year ago . i 'm with you . we have morgan , and we have this little ... this little baby . and michael 's awake from a coma . i mean ... it really gives you something to smile about , does n't it ? jax : yeah . [ scene_break ] robin : hey . jason : hey . thanks for coming . robin : when you called , i came . what 's going on ? jason : you remember when i would get busted for train surfing , and you 'd come get me out -- robin : please , do n't tell me you were train surfing last night . jason : michael thinks that he was driving the car that forced claudia off the road , and he confessed before i could stop him . robin : oh . and my uncle mac arrested him . jason : i do n't want him in lock - up overnight . you 're the only person who can help me get michael released . [ scene_break ] sam : hey , no , no , no , no , no . do n't walk away , please . i know this is n't easy for you . michael is your brother . you know what he 's been through , how he 's trying to get his life back on track ? you ca n't do this . if there is the slightest chance that you could have caused claudia 's accident , you have to say something . kristina : okay . i was driving . i was at the country club . and yeah , i was upset when i got home . but it was because i was in a fight with kiefer , not because i made claudia crash . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] [ crickets ] [ claudia sighs ] [ footsteps ] claudia : i guess john found you . sonny : i was in the chapel ... praying for you and the baby . claudia : well , not all your prayers came true . our little boy is dying . [ scene_break ] jason : i offered to put up bail , but mac refused to release michael to my custody , so i thought ... robin : uncle mac will listen to me ? jason : michael should n't even be in here . i 'm not even sure he caused the accident . [ robin sighs ] robin : that 's what he said , and , i mean , my uncle mac would n't have arrested him for nothing . jason : i know that michael was angry , and he was driving too fast . i know he remembers somebody swerving to avoid him . but that does n't mean it 's claudia . mac : oh , come on . you 're playing dirty , jason . robin : uncle mac ... can you just have some compassion and release michael ? mac : he confessed . robin : he 's a kid , and he was scared . mac : if i release michael , every one of his relatives , including the quartermaines , will help him run . robin : okay . what if i personally guarantee that jason will make sure michael does not leave town ? mac : why should i do this for you ? robin : you would n't be doing it for me . you would be doing it for michael . [ jason sighs ] [ scene_break ] sam : hey . i am really sorry for thinking that you could have caused claudia 's crash . i just -- i know -- i know you were upset , and i had no idea it was about your boyfriend . kristina : yeah , well , it was . sam : anything i can do ? kristina : no . it 's stupid . sam : i hate to tell you this , but relationships do not get any easier just because you get older . kristina : kiefer was with another girl , a senior , and i got a little jealous . we talked about it , and kiefer said it was no big deal . he was great . so we 're fine . i 'm fine . sam : really ? okay . i was just -- you know , it 's hard to think clearly when you are fighting with your boyfriend . kind of pushes all your buttons , and that makes you do things that you normally would n't do . i mean , i know , because i have . and then , i start lying to cover up everything i 've done , and that only makes everything worse . and i think i 've learned from it now , 'cause the bad thing about telling lies is ... well , i mean , it just -- it almost always ... catches up with you . [ scene_break ] [ jax sighs ] [ monitor beeping ] jax : you know , this is not how i planned to spend our first night in our new house . carly : you had plans , did you ? jax : well , yes . i thought we could barbecue by the pool , and then play lots of games , huh ? get morgan really tired so he sleeps soundly through the night . carly : you are devious . jax : yes , i am . carly : i like it . jax : well , you give plenty incentive . carly : so , what else ? what else did you have planned ? jax : oh . afterwards , i thought we could check our new master suite . carly : mmm . nice . jax : and then , you could take a nice , relaxing bath by yourself , or a co - ed steam shower , perhaps ? carly : i like co - ed . jax : really ? carly : mm - hmm . you know , it 's all going to happen . it is . i promise you , no more craziness like tonight . jax : well , you were just being a hero , saving claudia . carly : yeah , well , i 'm not going to do that anymore . i do n't want any more drama . i do n't . i -- i 'm going to focus on getting my blood pressure down , and i 'm going to look ahead to a stress - free delivery . jax : oh , i like the sound of that . carly : mmm . [ knock on door ] jax : oh . johnny : hey . i 'm sorry to bug you guys again , but you seen sonny ? jax : no , he has n't been here . johnny : why give a damn , anyway ? he does n't care about the baby or claudia . jax : what happened ? johnny : the force of the accident was too much , and the baby 's not going to make it . [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] claudia : that 's our little boy 's heartbeat , but it 's slipping away [ indistinct ] . sonny : you know what ? maybe you should n't -- you should n't even watch this . claudia : i did n't think that i would feel like this . i did n't think that being pregnant would change me , but it has . i ... did n't think that i could ever love anything as much as i love the idea of raising this little boy . i wish that there were more memories so i 'd have something else -- you know , something more , to hold onto . sonny : i guess it 's my fault . i should n't have been so unfair to you and the baby . claudia : well , as soon as you knew that it was yours , everything was going to change . sonny : you 're a good mother . you know , no matter what , even the short time this baby had , you already proved it . [ scene_break ] michael : i do n't get it . i thought i had to spend the night . mac : you got friends in high places . do n't disappoint them . jason : robin got your release . michael : thank you . i do n't know what to say . mac : it 's what you do that counts . all of you . let 's go . you got to go over here and sign for your belongings . let 's go . [ robin sighs and chuckles ] jason : thank you so much . robin : well , i 'm glad i could help . jason : and i 'm not going to take him out of the country . robin : i know . i know you wo n't . jason : he could still be innocent . i just -- i just wish he believed that . robin : i remember how you were after your accident , how you would n't let anybody help you . [ jason sighs ] robin : michael really needs you right now . you 're the only person that gets him . [ jason sighs ] michael : you should have left me locked up . jason : it 's going to be okay . michael : how ? jason : well , first , we 're going to get you home , and on the way , you 're going to remember that i 'm on your side . michael : okay . [ scene_break ] sam : here you go . so , i remember when jason and i were breaking up . it kind of felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest . i was really hurt and confused , a little bit angry . and , um , i did n't know , really . one minute , i hated him . the next minute , i felt like i would walk over broken glass just to be with him . anyway , one day , something happened , and i did n't do anything to stop it , and every minute after , when i should have said something , i kept lying . [ kristin sighs ] sam : digging myself in deeper . i will regret that moment for the rest of my life . but you know what ? i did learn from it . the only way out of something bad is to face it , and honey , i 'm not saying that it 's ever going to be easy , but i do think it 's the best way . kristina : maybe you should be having this conversation with mom . i mean , she 's the one who 's doing back flips to try to cover up that stupid affair with mayor floyd , and who knows what else ? maybe she 's the one who caused claudia 's accident . sam : why are you so angry with her ? kristina : oh , will you just forget it ? can you please just leave me alone ? [ scene_break ] jax : i do n't know if you 've heard , but michael confessed to driving the car that forced claudia off the road . johnny : yeah . jax : jason seems to think that he 's mistaken , but in any case , he 's down at the pcpd , and he 's under arrest . of course , carly ca n't know about any of this , 'cause after helping claudia , her blood pressure spiked , and if she has any more bad news , it could push her into a stroke . johnny : yeah . she 's not going to hear anything from me . jax : okay . johnny : carly did n't have to do it . she did , and i owe her . i always will . i hope she gets better . jax : thanks . johnny : you know , it 's ironic , is n't it ? sonny 's son caused this whole accident , and claudia would n't be alive if sonny 's ex - wife did n't save her . jax : yeah . yeah , that is ironic . [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] carly : what was that about ? not telling me is going to cause my blood pressure to rise . you know that , right ? jax : johnny was looking for sonny . told him we have n't seen him . carly : what 's going on ? why was he looking for sonny ? [ jax sighs ] jax : it 's sad news , i 'm afraid . claudia 's baby is not going to make it after all . [ scene_break ] sonny : you 've been through a lot . you 've got to let yourself cry . claudia : no . if i start crying again , i do n't -- i do n't know how i 'll stop . i just was thinking , wh - why ? i mean , if it 's because of the terrible things that i 've done -- what about the terrible things have been done to mean ? i mean -- sonny : listen to me . this is not going to help you . [ claudia sniffling ] sonny : shh . claudia : i just wonder if our son knew how much i wanted ... him , if he knew how much i ... i wanted to love him and have him love me and look up to me for everything , and ... how he was supposed to be a new chance for us , too . sonny : it should have been . [ sighs ] listen , i 'm sorry . look , um ... claudia : it 's not like you did this , so -- sonny : yeah , but i -- the way i -- you know , i was hard on you , and i let my anger take over . [ sighs ] i should have been with you when you had the amnio results , and i was n't . i was convinced it was ric 's baby . and ... i guess i wanted it to be . but when i found out it was mine , you -- things would have changed . you need to know that . claudia : does n't matter now . sonny : i -- i do n't know . i do n't know how to help you through this , but you know , if i did -- claudia : it 's okay . why do n't you go to the chapel and pray for our son ? because that 's something you do much better than i do , and not something i 'll ever do again . [ sonny sighs ] [ scene_break ] jason : okay . i just need you to sit tight for me . all right ? michael : do n't worry . i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm not even sure i ever want to drive again . jason : sure , you will . just be more careful next time . i mean , outside of giving a driver a moment of panic when you swerved into his lane , i do n't really think you did a lot of damage out there tonight . michael : you just want to believe that because you love me . i mean , you want to think the best of me . but i was n't even in my car 10 minutes before i started driving like a total crazy person . i mean , i went nuts because some guy tried to pass me . jason : that does n't mean that you caused claudia 's accident , michael . michael : but i did . okay ? i could have killed claudia and her baby , and i nearly killed my mom and her baby , too . i mean , they 're both in the hospital because of me . how can you even look at me ? jason : michael , you 're -- you 're getting -- michael : why are n't you pissed at me ? why ca n't you see that ... i wreck everything and everyone around me ? jason : okay . hold on . you 're forgetting what i told you about acting out of anger . it 's the same thing with guilt . and right now , you 're letting both of them control you . you need to shut it down . [ michael sighs ] jason : just try to stop reacting . you know this is going to take some time . you have to have patience , and you have to cut yourself some slack . just give me some time to sort things out . can you do that ? michael : i do n't know . jason : can you ... can you trust me ? michael : i can do that . jason : okay . you going to be all right here ? michael : i guess .

'cause when they said that the medication they were going to give me could hurt my baby , you wanted me to take it anyway . i was the one who said , `` no . i 'm going to have the surgery . `` johnny : yes . when it came down to choosing between you and your child , i chose you . i did n't want you risking your life . okay . this is an awful loss . i wish there was something i could do to help . claudia : there is . find the person who killed my son . johnny : okay . do n't do that . do n't turn your grief into anger . claudia : john , i need my brother right now , not a grief counselor . you know me . i need to know who killed my son , and i need to know that he 's going to pay . johnny : fine .

[ carly sighs ] [ door shuts ] [ scene_break ] jax : michael was arrested for reckless driving , and i 'm sure that carly would want to know about it , but at this stage , i do n't think it 's a good idea to tell her . kelly : no . carly 's blood pressure is already dangerously high . i ca n't stress to you enough the seriousness of her condition . any new upset right now could cause an additional spike and bring on a fatal stroke . jax : okay . kelly : look , deal with the michael situation any way you want , but make sure carly does n't find out about it until at least tomorrow .

[ scene_break ] epiphany : okay . that 's it . the both of you have three minutes . carly : it 's okay . i 'm calmer . it was a real shock to look up at that television and see michael 's face and realize that the police think that he 's the one who drove claudia off the road and , what , just drove away ? jax : you need to take it easy . carly : michael would n't do this . jax : take it easy . jason : i got -- i got mac to release michael . he 's at the quartermaines ' right now . carly : fine . then you call the police , and you tell them to get over here . i want to make a statement . jax : you heard jason . michael is fine . just -- carly : he 's not fine when the cops think he did this . [ jax sighs ] jax : carly , michael confessed . carly : i do n't care . he 's wrong . he 's wrong . i was at the accident , remember ? and i fought with sonny enough over that stupid car he bought michael to recognize it . the car i saw run claudia off the road was not michael 's . [ scene_break ] alexis : what happened to michael is horrible . i ca n't even imagine what he 's going through . but honestly , i mean , what is sonny and carly thinking ? they 're indulging him with this expensive , fancy sports car that they just bought him a month out of the hospital ? i mean , his brain injury that he 's still healing from -- he 's got behavioral problems , he has anger issues . [ sighs ] i 'm just glad kristina was n't in the car with him . sam : how do you know she was n't ? i mean , it 's just that you 're so convinced that michael is the one that caused this accident . you know , it very well could have been kristina , who was driving , too . alexis : that 's impossible . sam : she took the car tonight and went to the country club . she had a fight with her boyfriend , and she was all upset , driving on harbor view . she was evasive and erratic all night long . it 's very possible that kristina , not michael , caused that accident with claudia . [ scene_break ] sonny : what were you thinking out there ? michael : i was n't . i just -- sonny : how fast were you going ? michael : fast . sonny : what -- did you know it was claudia 's car ? michael : no . some guy cut me off , and i got really pissed off . i went to catch him , and -- sonny : what the hell were you thinking , driving your car at high speed chasing another car ? michael : i do n't -- sonny : what happened when you saw claudia 's car coming toward you ? michael : i swerved back into my lane . i did n't really see what happened -- sonny : how can you be so responsible -- i gave you the car . it was a privilege . michael : i 'm sorry . sonny : you are a danger to yourself and to others . did you even know that there was somebody injured in the other car ? michael : no , i just kept driving . sonny : did you even think that -- you got to listen to me . michael : i panicked -- sonny : did you even think to look back ? michael : i just -- i did n't know what i was doing . i just kept going -- sonny : so -- okay . so you were out joyriding , right , and you know what you did ? you ran a pregnant woman off the road ! michael : i did n't know that it was claudia in the car . sonny : you acted like an irresponsible coward . you could have killed claudia . you could have killed your mother . did you know she was there ? but you know what you did do ? you killed the baby . michael : what ? sonny : the baby did n't make it tonight . your baby brother died because of what you did .

skye : i know it 's unkind to speak ill of the dead , but i find it inexcusable that lorenzo would hide his ill - gotten gains in a place where his mother of his child could n't find them . jax : well , the real challenge is gon na be getting the money away from lorenzo 's accountant . skye : [ scoffs ] some accountant . you saw her . fernanda de la barca is a man trap in any language . jax : well , she 's good at managing money on the black market . she did an excellent job of hiding lorenzo 's funds . skye : so the plan will be that you 'll distract her while i sneak into her office to try to access lorenzo 's accounts . jax : yeah . skye : do you really think you 'll be able to distract her for that long ? jax : oh , i think i can manage . skye : okay , well , just remind yourself that you 're doing a very good deed for a very grateful ex - wife . jax : i will . although i still do n't think carly would be very happy if she knew i flew to spain to hit on another woman who thinks you 're my mistress . [ scene_break ] patrick : one drunken night does n't mean we 're in a relationship . lisa : how dare you stand there and pretend like i 'm some anonymous floozy that you hooked up with at a bar . all right , we have history . we have sexual history . i mean , i 've certainly known you a lot longer than your snippy wife . patrick : wow , lisa , that 's the most irrelevant thing you 've ever said . lisa : okay , i 'm defining `` relationships `` since you seem to be unclear on the concept . all right , minus the mind - blowing sex that we recently had , when i moved here , we basically picked up where we left off . we were one - upping each other , we were getting our drinks and darts on a bar , relentlessly flirting . patrick : that 's not the way i saw it . lisa : really ? how did you see it ? patrick : old friends joking around . lisa : ahh , well , hmm , you were n't laughing when you started acting like a jilted lover when i got serious with steve . all right ? and you certainly did n't seem conflicted when you walked me home that night . you were a man who knew what you wanted , and you got it . so do n't insult me by pretending in my face that it never happened . patrick : you 're freaking me out . what is it you expect from me ? lisa : what i want ... robin : i bet i can guess what this conversation is about . lisa : oh , well , you 're welcome to try . robin : you sleeping with my husband .

[ scene_break ] skye : you 'll be impossible for fernanda to resist . jax : oh , thank you . that is the idea , is n't it ? skye : between your style and my secret weapon , she wo n't stand a chance . jax : what secret weapon ? skye : a bronsino exactly like hers . i saw her carrying it around this afternoon . jax : that 's very clever of you .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i 've been checking the messages every second . from what we understand , kristina 's okay . claire : what happened ? alexis : warren bauer had some psychotic break . he went into the hospital with a loaded gun . he started shooting . he wanted to kill kristina , i think , and he ended up shooting ethan and mac . claire : oh , my ... dead ? sonny : no . apparently , mac was touch and go . ethan 's wound was bad , but they got him to the o.r . in time . claire : how did we miss this ? alexis : what do you mean ? claire : no , i mean , we should have seen this coming . sonny : how ? claire : well , warren 's been unspooling for a while . he 's called my office twice a day in the last month threatening , cajoling . i mean , whatever tactic he thought would pressure me into reopening the investigation into kristina 's abuse . sonny : well , you know what , warren 's not gon na be a bother to anybody anymore because mac blew him away . claire : wow . heh . all right . you look away for a moment and all hell breaks loose . alexis : welcome to port charles . claire : a madman almost shot your daughter . i do n't know how you 're holding it together . alexis : i 've had a lot of practice . claire : i 'm sure . i would think it would be difficult to share a child with sonny . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : as scared as i 've been since aiden went missing , i really have felt in my heart that everything was gon na be okay , you know , that aiden was in the hospital somewhere and it was just a matter of time before we found him . but now with this jane morgan , if she took him . i mean , the fact that she 's a neonatal nurse , she could have taken the monitor off his ankle . and she could have him anywhere by now . nikolas : just try and stay positive , okay ? elizabeth : what 's going on ? steve : well , i interviewed all neonatal personnel . and jane morgan was definitely around when aiden went missing . nikolas : okay . the police are on it ? steve : there 's been a bit of a distraction . elizabeth : what ? steve : the father of the boy who was abusing kristina showed up -- nikolas : warren bauer ? steve : yeah . showed up with a gun and went on a rampage . nikolas : what ? steve : mac scorpio and ethan lovett were shot . and somehow , with 2 bullet wounds in his chest , mac managed to get his gun and kill mr. bauer . elizabeth : are mac and ethan gon na be okay ? steve : yeah , we got ethan to the o.r . just in the nick of time . he 's resilient and making a speedy recovery . but mac needed a miracle . luckily he found one in matt hunter . [ scene_break ] matt : okay , look . look . i 'm not a noble person and your expression of gratitude is totally blowing -- maxie : no talking . no ... talking . [ scene_break ] lisa : well , i am impressed with your intuition , because sleeping together is exactly what patrick and i were talking about . patrick : can i speak to you in private , please ? robin : no , no , no . that 's not necessary . lisa is about as subtle as a sledgehammer . she 's already given me an earful . patrick : what did you do ? robin : she 's just trying to piss me off . i mean , dangling innuendoes , talking about how you cheated on her way back when , and how you 'll cheat on me now . i mean , nice ex - girlfriend , by the way . patrick : well , i never claimed to be discriminating in college . robin : then we 're agreed . we 're done letting lisa yank our chains ? [ scene_break ] michael : maxie . you all right ? maxie : um , yes . no . i 'm not sure . michael : you want to sit down ? or you can come back to the conference room . my mom 's in there . she can talk to you about whatever you 're dealing with . maxie : your mom ? no , i 'm fine . actually , i did something that i promised myself i was n't gon na do anymore . michael : what 's that ? maxie : have sex . michael : okay , i 'm probably not the best person to talk to about this . maxie : oh , do n't misunderstand me . i 'm not giving up on sex completely . i happen to really like sex . i mean , who does n't ? and i 'm very good at it . michael : all right , you probably should n't be telling me this . maxie : sorry ? michael : oh , i mean , it 's kind of personal , right ? maxie : yeah , no kidding . and even though i happen to be very good at it , i happen to also be very bad at picking who i have sex with . not that every guy i 've ever been with has been a mistake . i mean , i 've loved most of them . well , i thought i loved most of them anyway . and in a messed up , dysfunctional way , i know i loved lucky . and i 'm always gon na love spinelli because he 's the healthiest relationship i 've ever had , even though i ruined it . michael : sorry . maxie : yeah , me , too . really sorry . because no matter how hard i tried or spinelli tried , we could just never get things back on track after i slept with franco . it was stupid and wrong . not to mention he 's a serial killer . i just , i ca n't even think about it , but i ca n't stop thinking about it . i try to keep thoughts of franco just stuffed down inside , but see , franco is so handsome and charming even though he 's demented . no , he 's not charming . he kills people . he 's a serial killer . [ overlapping chatter ] carter : nobody does nothing for free . like that . i took an action , you had a reaction . not the one i 'd hoped for , but , hey , it 's a learning curve , right ? see , in pentonville , it 's not so much about doing your time , it 's surviving it . maxie : ... 10 years straight -- michael : all right , stop it . all right ? stop it . it 's talking about this stuff just makes it worse , okay ? [ scene_break ] lisa : is that right , patrick ? you 're done with me ? robin : you know what , do n't even talk to him , okay ? this is between you and me . i 'm onto your games and i do n't really want to play . i 'm not going to become paranoid , starting to monitor my husband 's every move . i am not blind enough , stupid enough , or insecure enough to buy into your lame attempt to sabotage my marriage . what happened to you anyway ? you used to be so much better at this whole snake in the grass thing . lisa : hmm . this probably is n't a good time for you to be insulting me . robin : then maybe you should n't make it so easy . you know , i took you at face value when you first showed up here , after i got over my initial instinct to be wary of you . i mean , come on , the old girlfriend showing up all sweet and innocent - like , covering her true intentions . i thought , no , lisa 's too smart . she 's too savvy to be an obvious cliché . but here we are . lisa : are you done ? robin : patrick and i are married . we are a unit . you are a memory in the past that he wants nothing to do with anymore . and you know what , my husband would never cheat on me , so you can stop wasting your time and your energy trying to make me doubt my husband . now i 'm done . lisa : well , are n't you lucky to score such a blindly loyal little woman ? robin : bitch . patrick : i 'm so sorry . i do n't even know where to start apologizing . robin : do n't even . it 's not your fault that that crazy woman is fixated on you . [ scene_break ] fernanda : you were expecting a mousy little bean counter ? huh ? jax : ha ha . yeah , something like that . fernanda : well , my research on you was somewhat more extensive , mr. jacks . your business connections are sterling . and aside from one plea of no contest to money laundering years ago , you are squeaky clean . almost heroic . jax : well , i have to admit , the money laundering was actually my brother . fernanda : that would be jerry . jax : that 's right . he can only operate on the black market for any number of reasons . and i 'd like to help him . fernanda : well , i 'm sure we can work something out . let 's take a look at the numbers . i just downloaded them into my phone . jax : actually , numbers can wait . fernanda : lovely . for a moment i thought i was losing my touch .

[ door opens ] [ guard speaking spanish ] [ scene_break ] maxie : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . you just watched 2 people get shot and almost got shot yourself , and here i am babbling on about having sex with some remorseless psychopath . there i go talking about it again . michael : look , i 'm sorry . i should n't have yelled at you , all right . what happened to you , you have every right to deal with it any way you need . maxie : the thing is , i was n't even thinking about franco when you walked up . not consciously anyway . i was kind of flipped out about something else . michael : yeah , mac got shot . he saved my life , by the way . i should have thanked him . maxie : you still can . when he wakes up . he will wake up eventually . mac lived through his surgery thanks to matt hunter , who was brilliant because i asked him to be . michael : so if you 're not scared about mac , then why are you so upset ? maxie : the thing is , after franco i promised myself that i was n't gon na sleep with anyone else on impulse . actually , i promised myself i was n't gon na sleep with anyone besides spinelli ever again , but that 's like promising to floss your teeth after you 've already gotten a cavity . michael : you 're not telling me why you were upset when i came up to you , though . what is it ? maxie : i slept with matt hunter . to thank him for saving mac 's life . i mean , it was n't exactly that cut and dry like , `` oh , hey , mac 's gon na live . where 's the closest flat surface ? `` but close . and now , i 'm not saying i regret it . i wo n't give you any inappropriate details , but nobody was disappointed . it 's just , do you think it 's okay to sleep with someone out of gratitude ? matt 's turned out to be so unexpectedly wonderful , but i did n't exactly think this through . and again , it 's impulse sex . i 'm just really tired of making terrible decisions . michael : look , maxie , this is what i think . i do n't think you lied to anybody and i do n't think you cheated on anybody . you wanted to thank matt , right ? and maybe just stop thinking and feel . there 's nothing wrong with that . maxie : thank you . i needed to hear that . okay . i think i can go sit with mac now . thanks for being a good listener . [ scene_break ] fernanda : a full moon in barcelona . jax : it is beautiful , is n't it ? fernanda : i consider it a good omen . jax : i usually do n't mix business with pleasure . fernanda : heh . well , then let 's get the business out of the way , huh ? i 'm just going to grab my phone . jax : on second thought ... why do n't we wait on that , go get a drink ? fernanda : i know the perfect bar in the lobby . follow me , mr. jacks . [ scene_break ] skye : do you speak english ? guard : i do . not that it will do you any good . skye : i can explain . guard : oh , do n't bother . i can connect the dots on my own . you let yourself in after hours using fernanda de la barca 's key and id card . that makes you a thief . skye : oh . no , no . that could n't be further from the truth . you see , i 'm just a desperate mother trying to support her child . you see , i have no money . my husband was murdered . and fernanda 's holding all of his assets and she wo n't release them to me . and i 've tried to convince her otherwise , but i 've had to take matters into my own hand . and if i do n't find financial relief for me and my daughter soon , we 'll be thrown out into the streets . [ sobbing ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : can i get you anything ? something to drink or eat ? elizabeth : no . no , i 'm fine . nikolas : you 've been through a hell of a lot . elizabeth : and every minute that goes by i become more and more afraid that i 'm never gon na see him again . nikolas : my instinct tells me that we 're gon na find him , okay ? we 're gon na find him . elizabeth : good . i 'm glad you feel that way . i 'm trying to be a believer , too . you know , i 'm trying to stay strong and positive just like shirley told me to right before she died , but it 's just really hard . steve : no news on aiden . no sign of jane morgan . but i did go through her personnel file . there 's nothing that would raise a red flag . elizabeth : all because franco has the resources to make it that way . we do n't even know if this jane morgan is her real name . i mean , come on , j. morgan ? it 's some message from franco . nikolas : we do n't know for sure that franco planted her . elizabeth : yes , we do . he was on every monitor in the hospital bragging about how he was gon na randomly steal some baby with the last 2 numbers on the i d bracelet being 66 . and obviously he could n't do it because he 's in l.a. , so he had to have somebody else do it . and what if this jane morgan saw the footage of franco going over the edge ? and what if she decided to just cut her losses and take the baby or dump him in a dumpster or -- nikolas : stop , stop . do n't say that . elizabeth : what if it 's too late and what if he 's already dead ? [ scene_break ] ethan : [ groans ] oh , i must on serious meds . i 'm having the most fantastic hallucination . maya : well , i 'm here . it 's the least i can do , right ? ethan : beating yourself up a little ? maya : try a lot . i can not believe how reckless i was . you were just lying there . shot , bleeding . and i just froze . how could anyone , myself included , think i have what it takes to be a good doctor ? ethan : well , i think freezing when a madman is shooting up the hospital counts as an extenuating circumstance . maya : you 're being too nice . you could have died , ethan . ethan : but i did n't so i 'll live to sing another day . maya : you sing ? ethan : like a hooker in handcuffs . maya : hey . carly : hey . maya : is the lockdown lifted ? kristina : i have to see ethan . are you really okay ? ethan : oh , yeah . i suspect i 'll have a bit of a sore throat . i 'm a little groggy , but in the most pleasant way . carly : you 're a glass half full kind of guy , huh ? ethan : i try not to wallow . kristina : that 's why i like ethan so much . 'cause he 's always bright and optimistic . if mr. bauer would have killed you because of me , i would n't have been able to take it . [ scene_break ] alexis : he has n't been a walk in the park . but quite frankly , neither have i. i mean , the havoc that i wreaked was more subtle and may have taken longer to blow up in everybody 's face . claire : what do you mean ? alexis : well , i went to absurd lengths to keep him way from kristina because i thought that she would be exposed to too much violence , and as it turns out , her exposure to violence was because of me . claire : well , you could n't have predicted warren bauer would snap like that . alexis : no , but i might have noticed that his son was beating the crap out of my daughter . see , that went right over my head . so i 'm not one to throw stones at him . sonny : are you -- no , seriously , you 're actually defending me ? 'cause i like that . claire : well , you 're not the first parent to miss the signs of abuse . and not to minimize it , but that was a one - time thing . sonny 's a mob lifestyle puts his children at risk on a daily basis . sonny : and , claire , why do you care ? 'cause you barely even know my kids , even then as a lady prosecutor who put their father away in prison forever . alexis : you know what , i 'm gon na -- sonny : and got michael instead . you know what i mean ? alexis : can i go , please ? you guys do whatever you 're gon na do . excuse me . i 'll be in touch . sonny : so let me guess . this has to be a day where you hate my guts . claire : you know , that 's one thing we 're gon na have to be really clear on . i do n't have to like you to take what i need from you . [ scene_break ] skye : this is my little pumpkin . is n't she beautiful ? guard : yes . beautiful . skye : well , it 's just the two of us now that lorenzo 's gone . may he rest in peace . it 's up to me now to make sure she gets what he envisioned for her . but all of lorenzo 's legal assets are gone and fernanda 's been managing the rest , and she refuses to release them to me . that 's outrageous . this is his child . of course he would want her to be provided for . guard : senora de la barca is a hateful woman . i must go now , complete my rounds . i trust you 'll be gone by the time i get back . skye : oh , thank you . that 's from me and my daughter . thank you , lorenzo . you may have thank you , lorenzo . you may have trusted your money to a soulless creature , but she gets a fantastic rate of return . [ scene_break ] jax : i have to admit , usually i 'm not easily distracted from business . i 've enjoyed this . fernanda : you are a fabulous dancer . jax : i was just trying to keep up with you . fernanda : little known fact . you can tell a lot about a man from the way he dances . you know , how he controls his body and handles a woman . jax : you got all that from a few twirls around the dance floor ? fernanda : you have to be a very perceptive woman , which i am . what would you like to do now ? jax : well , i see we have 2 options . we can talk business or i could turn on some music and we could have another drink . fernanda : second option . jax : that sounds good to me . [ scene_break ] michael : are you sure you 're okay ? kristina : i just feel awful about ethan . he 's been so nice and awful things keep happening to him because he knows me . you probably wish you 'd never met me . ethan : hey , not true . kristina : see what i mean ? ethan 's shot in a hospital bed and he ca n't even admit it 's my fault . ethan : have you met maya ? because , see , she thinks my condition is her fault . you two should start a club or something . carly : okay , let 's stop playing the blame game . the only person responsible for what happened in this hospital was warren bauer . and thankfully , he ca n't finish what he started . ethan : hear , hear . work . ethan : all right . well , thanks for sticking around . maya : somebody has to . i 'll check on you later . bye , kristina : bye . carly : okay , you know what , the lockdown is still in effect . we should get back to our designated waiting area . michael : yeah . kristina : i really do n't want to go back to that conference room . can i just stay here with ethan ? carly : that okay with you ? carly : okay . me , too . kristina : thank you . michael : you know where i am if you need me , all right ? kristina : i 'm so glad you did n't die . ethan : oh , come on . would i do that to you ? kristina : you better not . i intend to have you in my life for a very long time .

[ scene_break ] skye : i do n't expect much from you , jax , but i do expect you to honor any agreements we make . you 're only allowed to cheat on your wife with me . jax : okay , okay . you know what , this is not the time , because we have a guest . skye : a guest ? that 's your guest . you know what , i think i want her to go . jax : that 's not very hospitable , is it ? skye : if you do n't make her go , i will . jax : i 'm sorry about this . obviously you can see i have a little bit of a situation to deal with . she gets this way from time to time . fernanda : it 's okay , darling . let 's figure out a time tomorrow to go over the financial specs , huh ? jax : yeah . you know , on second thought , maybe ... i just do n't think i 'd be able to keep my hands off you , so maybe we should n't tempt fate by doing business together . fernanda : so this is good - bye ? jax : i 'm afraid so . fernanda : your loss . jax : yes , i know . skye : do n't let it hit you . jax : mission accomplished ? skye : yeah , worked like a charm . the money is in my hands , right where it belongs . jax : congratulations . skye : oh , jax , i could n't have done it without your help . jax : of course . you 're resourceful . you could have done this without me . skye : well , maybe , but it would n't have been nearly as much fun . and now i get to thank you . [ scene_break ] carly : you make it sound so simple . if i want jax back , go get him . what about all the stuff that tore us apart ? you know , that did n't magically disappear . michael : jax hates dad and always has , always will , but who cares ? that 's between them . it has nothing to do with you . carly : yes , it does . what affects my kids , affects me . michael : i 'm no relationship expert by any means , but it seems you got 2 options , mom . proceed with the divorce or forgive jax for what he did and try to make your marriage work . yeah , it 's simple .

'cause i can call my gossip columnist -- oh , that 's right . she 's in jail . you 're not exactly an after - the - jump , small - column - item guy , are you ? i mean , you shoot for above the fold . oh , again with the `` shoot . `` johnny : this is a private office . you got no right to be here . so whatever it is you think you know about me -- todd : oh , i do know , johnny . i was right about you . i was right about you all along . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm not divorcing sam . carly : well , then why do you need to use diane ? jason : because alexis is sam 's mother . carly : is alexis blaming you for what happened to that baby ? alexis can be so judgmental . who the hell does she think she is ? jason : stop . stop ! stop . you 're gearing up to fight for me . carly : you 're damn right i am . jason : there 's no point . i did what i did . sam feels how she feels . carly : sam is grieving , okay , and grief is a process , and soon she 's gon na be ready to deal with what happened and stop being so angry and stop punishing you . jason : it 's just -- it 's -- it 's gone -- it 's gone beyond that . carly : why ? jason : it 's because i kissed elizabeth . carly : what ? jason : yeah . you heard me . carly : does sam know ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : if i might ask what you 're doing -- and so boldly . what -- what if i had been todd ? sam : i am mr. manning 's new assistant . i was hired to poke around his life and figure out what he 's hiding . spinelli : as a matter of fact , we were hired to find out what heather webber was hiding , and we , or , more accurately , the police did exactly that . heather was hiding luke spencer . [ scene_break ] tracy : you look like you 're recovering . luke : spanky . i was n't sure you 'd show . tracy : it sounded like you were at death 's door . i did n't want to miss the opportunity to celebrate . luke : well , do n't hang up your dancing shoes yet . they 're keeping me here for a reason . tracy : their fee . i ca n't believe you 're still alive . kidnapped , held hostage . oh , and you took a bullet for anna devane . my , my , my . are n't you the hero ? luke : there 's no need to be insulting . tracy : even heather webber could n't kill you ? what a shame .

[ scene_break ] this is a closed ward . how did you get in here ? anna : it 's police business . i 'm looking for someone . [ scene_break ] ewen : i 'm sorry about the e.c.t . i had no choice . you would n't stop trying to escape . i know you want to go home to the people you love . but i 'm afraid that 's just not possible . [ scene_break ] anna : have you seen this woman anywhere -- on the premises , in this wing ? [ scene_break ] luke : you have every right to be angry at me . tracy : angry at you ? i hate you . luke : no , you do n't . tracy : [ scoffs ] you lied to me . you told me it was a bad idea if we got back together again , that the police would think it was suspicious , with my husband missing and all . luke : well , all that was true . tracy : no , it was an excuse because you did n't have the guts to tell me you were hot for anna . luke : oh , no . now -- tracy : wait . hold on . are you gon na deny it ? because while you were playing hostage with crazy , your gal pal slim was telling me all about your plan to let me down easy and then rush back to the hotel to have a romantic dinner . luke : it 's not that simple . tracy : were you planning on dumping me and rushing back to anna ? yes or no ? luke : yes . [ scene_break ] sam : i heard the cops found luke tied up in that shed . spinelli : yeah , he 's expected to make a full recovery , but the prognosis of our client remains in doubt . heather injected olivia with a massive amount of lsd . sam : ah - ha - ha ! ha ! look . oh , yeah , i know , i know . todd led the paper with it this morning . spinelli : hey , what do you say we go out for a cup of coffee ? i 'll buy . sam : thank you . i 'm fine , spinelli . spinelli : i just thought you might want to mark the -- the end of a successful assignment . heather 's in custody . you can quit your job here and get back to more important things , like your life . sam : you know me , spinelli . when something does n't make sense , i have to figure it out , and guess what . todd manning -- he does n't make sense . [ scene_break ] todd : i do not understand how anyone could ever believe you about anything . i mean , starr , yeah , she 's young , she 's naive . she 'd been through a lot . that kind of explains it , right ? she was n't thinking clearly . but , carly , right ? she 's a sharp woman . why would she so willingly dumb herself down to be with some ... bastard like you ? johnny : i do n't know . you promised carly that you would back off me . todd : well , the camera was there . was n't a whole lot i could do about that . johnny : hmm . so you lied to her . you kept spying on me . todd : i - i do n't lie to carly . carly 's my friend . i do n't have a lot of friends in this world . she told me that you 're a new man and that you changed . i said , `` fine , okay . it 's a done deal . i 'll erase all of the footage . `` johnny : so you got rid of it ? todd : well , i was gon na delete the files , but they opened ... and that 's when i heard you admit to killing my granddaughter . [ scene_break ] jason : diane just cancelled . i should go . carly : no , first tell me what happened with elizabeth . jason : it was -- it was nothing , okay ? it was just a mistake . carly : no , you do n't make those kind of mistakes . in fact , the only time you 've ever made a mistake like that with elizabeth is after you caught sam with someone el -- you found sam with someone else ? jason : i saw sam kissing john mcbain . [ scene_break ] sam : heather must have something on todd . why else would he hire her ? spinelli : it certainly was n't her way with words . look , heather is in custody , our client -- the ill - fated olivia -- no longer needs our services , and our balance sheet is swimming in red ink , so might i suggest that we just put this case to bed and move on ? sam : no , not yet , because i think whatever heather is holding over todd , it has something to do with me . [ scene_break ] johnny : you got it all wrong , pal . connie already took responsibility for shooting out anthony 's tires , all right ? so she is the one who is directly responsible for killing the boyfriend and the little girl . ask the cops , ask the judge , her shrink . goodbye . todd : getting a mentally ill woman to take the fall for you -- it 's an inspired piece of manipulation . ordinarily , i would applaud you , and it explains a lot , you know ? it explains why my daughter would sign a contract with you , why you would n't sell it to me . you wanted her to be grateful . you did n't want her to suspect that you were the kind of man that would kill her boyfriend , that would kill her daughter . johnny : i do n't know what you 're talking about . todd : i 'd like to talk about what it was like for that little 3-year - old girl to be strapped in the back of a car as it went over the cliff and burst into flames , 'cause i do n't think she even knew what was going on . johnny : shut up ! todd : you 're right . it 's probably time for us to stop talking . [ scene_break ] tracy : wow . i think that 's a first for us . you gave me an honest answer . luke : where are you going ? tracy : home . luke : spanky , wait . tracy : [ scoffs ] you do n't get to call me that ever again . luke : okay . but i need to tell you what it was i was going to say . tracy : 60 seconds . luke : i 'm sorry . tracy : [ chuckles ] that 's it ? luke : well , you only gave me 60 seconds . okay , wait . look , i know that i 've hurt you . what i was going to say ... is that my feelings for anna had changed . i was gon na say that i 'm sorry if i misled you in any way . i was gon na tell you how much you mean to me and tell you how sorry i am if i 've hurt you . tracy : and how much sorrier you 're gon na be when you ca n't get into my bank account . luke : damn it , woman , this has nothing to do with your bank account . i know i do n't deserve your forgiveness , but , what the hell , i 'm asking for it , anyway . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you have a lot of friends and family who support you . patrick : yeah . actually , m - maxie and lulu are the reasons why i 'm here . maxie found one of the pills , and she confronted me , and , um , i tried to white- knuckle it , but it was n't long before i lost control again . and that 's when lulu stepped in . elizabeth : oh . well , she 's been through it enough with her dad and her brother . patrick : yeah . she 's a tough one . she made me realize what i was doing , not only to myself but to emma . she brought me here . with ewen 's help , i 'm gon na check in to detox . elizabeth : oh , that 's good . i 'm -- i 'm glad you 're seeing ewen . patrick : yeah . um , you know , we talked , and he understands what i 've been going through with robin , and , um -- and how i 've been using the pills to kind of mask the pain . he 's a good guy . elizabeth : yeah . i agree . patrick : and he cares about you . i do n't know . maybe you should give him another chance . [ scene_break ] ewen : you 're not going home . and -- and -- and i know that 's hard to accept , but -- but your husband , your -- your little girl , your parents , and friends -- they 've -- they 've accepted your death . and i 'm afraid it has to stay that way . [ scene_break ] nurse : i 'm sorry . anna : it 's crucial that i find this woman . so if you have any information -- anything -- nurse : i 'm sorry , officer , but we 're not -- anna : commissioner . nurse : as i was saying , commissioner , i 'm sure you 're aware that the hospital is legally required to maintain confidentiality . anna : listen , i 'm -- i 'm not just here on a legal capacity . this woman is my daughter -- robin scorpio drake . so if you have any information , really ... nurse : i 'm sorry . i ca n't help you . [ scene_break ] ewen : you 're going on a trip to switzerland . there 's a very special clinic there that will see to your needs ... and no one will be the wiser . [ scene_break ] nurse : why do you think your daughter was a patient at ferncliff ? anna : a former patient said that she saw her here . nurse : really ? well , then i can certainly understand why you 'd want to check with us . who was this patient ? anna : heather webber . nurse : oh , dear . heather webber ? she was a handful . i 'm afraid you ca n't trust a word she says . she 's extremely disturbed ... anna : then why the hell did you people let her out ? ! if heather is extremely disturbed , she should still be here at ferncliff ! [ scene_break ] robin : mom ? [ scene_break ] tracy : you 're right . you do n't deserve my forgiveness . luke : that was sort of a figure of speech . tracy : i do n't accept your apology , and i do n't forgive you . you married me twice under false pretenses . luke : not true . tracy : and the first one was n't even legal . it was just a fraud -- a swindle you cooked up . luke : well , the second one was 100 % legit . tracy : it was . and you looked in my eyes , and you promised to love and cherish me . then you divorced me less than a year later . luke : tracy , my life was falling apart . you know that . i was completely messed up . and by the time i pieced it back together and realized what i had done to you , i knew i could n't make any more promises that i could n't keep . tracy : did it occur to you to ask me how i felt , if i wanted to be divorced from you ? luke : you were already involved with anthony zacchara . you married him like that . [ snaps fingers ] tracy : i was being blackmailed , luke . and if you had the teeniest amount of love for me , you would have seen that and helped me . luke : i tried to help you . tracy : months later , after i had been shackled to that degenerate , grinning through my teeth at his beck and call while he swindled me and he tortured my father ! i trusted you , i needed you , and you were too busy playing footsie with anna devane . luke : oh , no , no . that is not true . this thing with anna is very recent . it -- it came completely unexpected . tracy : oh , thank you for that . that 's good to know . and what am i supposed to do ? i 'm supposed to stand by and twiddle my thumbs and wait for it to blow over , like a bad fever ? luke : i did n't ask you to wait . [ footsteps ] luke : tracy , i need you in my life . you can walk out of here today , but i 'll come and find you tomorrow , and i wo n't give up on you . tracy : what about anna devane ? will you give up her ? luke : no . tracy : wow . you 're an idiot . luke : i never claimed to be otherwise . [ scene_break ] anna : confidentiality is one thing , you know , but releasing a deranged lunatic out on the street when you know full well that they 're a danger to themselves and everyone else -- you know , you have to answer to that . [ scene_break ] robin : mom ? is that you ? [ scene_break ] anna : you released heather into her son 's care , saying , `` everything is fine , `` but it 's not fine . and i think that you are liable for everything that happened . you know , she murdered a woman -- a doctor . she kidnapped someone else and drugged another woman . she may never recover . nurse : if i 'd only had the authority to keep ms. webber here longer . i 'm afraid it was n't up to me . anna : i am going to search this facility from top to bottom , so let 's go , please . nurse : of course . of course . why do n't we start with the rooms down this corridor ? [ scene_break ] ewen : anna devane is in the facility , and she 's searching every room in the ward . we do n't have much time . what do you want me to do ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : patrick , you need to focus on your own recovery . patrick : do n't worry . ewen and i were n't talking about you today . it was a few weeks ago when he came in for his follow - up . he asked me if i thought jason was an issue . i said yes . elizabeth : why would you say that ? patrick : my personal feelings aside , you and jason had a child together , and there 's no stronger bond in the world . elizabeth : he 's married . patrick : from what i heard , that 's falling apart . elizabeth : jason still loves sam . patrick : and you still have a soft spot for him , just like robin did , and i 'm never gon na understand that , so do n't ask me why . elizabeth : well , maybe you do n't have to understand it , and maybe i do n't really have to justify my feelings to anyone . patrick : look , elizabeth , clearly i 'm in no position to comment on anyone else 's life , but you 've always been a good friend to me , and i just -- i do n't want to see you get hurt . elizabeth : my feelings for jason are complicated , and right now he 's suffered a loss , and i care about him . patrick : and he 's unavailable . look ... i do n't want you to waste time pining for somebody that 's not there for you , whether it 's lucky or jason . and i 'm just saying that ewen 's a good guy . he 's smart , and he 's available . and life is short .

[ coughs ] you could have killed me . todd : i 'll kill you , all right . johnny : i said back off ! you 're right . [ coughs ] i hate myself for what i did that night . i did not mean to hurt your family . todd : you were trying to kill your family . do me a favor . next time you try and kill your grandfather , do it in the comfort of your own home , somewhere secluded . you do n't just go shooting a gun at a -- at a car without any regard for who 's in the car ! you do n't know what 3-year - old could be in the backseat sitting behind her parents ! johnny : i would give anything to take that night back . todd : oh , yeah . you were the picture of remorse , running off to try and frame sonny corinthos for your crime . when that did n't work , having revenge sex with his demented girlfriend . i do n't know how you managed to get her to take the blame for you , johnny . i was wrong . i stood right here . i said that you and i were alike . we 're not alike . i 've never killed anybody and whined so much afterwards . you killed a 3-year - old , and then you hide behind the dead child 's mother ? johnny : oh , please ? you feel good standing there , playing the righteous avenger ? you mean to tell me you do n't have anything that weighs on your conscience , huh ? you do n't have anything that you regret , that you 're ashamed of ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : assuming todd does have some sort of secret , why do you think it involves you ? sam : okay , spinelli . remember when we found that article about my baby 's death in his room ? why did he keep it and then crumble it up ? spinelli : i thought we agreed on this . it 's far more likely that the clipping belonged to heather . i mean , she 's been stalking you and your child ever since you went to visit her at ferncliff . sam : yes , okay , i agree . i do think that heather is involved , but i somehow think that it all tracks back to todd . why would he hire me as his assistant ? he knows that i 'm a p.i . , and i do n't think he bought for a second that i was looking for a fresh start . todd wants to know something about me , and i have n't figured out what it is yet . spinelli : hey , is it possible that you 're looking for something that does n't exist ? maybe you 're just trying to distract yourself from recent and painful events . sam : you know me , spinelli . i am not giving up . giving up is something i do not do . spinelli : with all due respect ... is n't that what you just did with your marriage ?

[ scene_break ] sam : i did not give up on jason or my marriage . he gave up on me . spinelli : in fairness , you chose to keep a great deal from him . i mean , you knew that franco was his brother and the baby 's father before jason did , and , granted , jason may not have reacted the way you wished , but he 's a good man . he would have loved the baby in time . sam : yeah , well , he -- he did n't get the time to do it . he had john mcbain beat up so bad -- he was in a ditch -- and my baby died because of it . spinelli : is that why you kissed mcbain , to get back at jason ? sam : [ scoffs ] is that what jason told you ? spinelli : no , no , no . jason did n't speak of it , nor would he , but i - i have many sources , and evidently there was a rather public argument . sam : oh , really ? did your sources tell you that jason had his mouth all over elizabeth webber ? spinelli : uh , my source was under the impression that jason kissed elizabeth only after you kissed ... sam : what are you saying , spinelli ? you think it 's my fault ? spinelli : look , i 'm -- i 'm just pointing out that both you and your husband are in a period of deep grief and hurt . if you two do n't find a way to turn to each other , then you most assuredly will pull even further apart . sam : spinelli , do you understand that if i could wave a magic wand and make it all go away , i would ? but i ca n't . spinelli : no magic is required . you just have to reach out to jason . sam : no , i have to figure out what todd manning 's hiding . spinelli : if such a thing even exists . sam : come on , spinelli . he hired heather webber to keep her mouth shut . we went through his computer . we went through the files .

[ carly laughs ] carly : thank you . sonny : no , i 'm just -- it 's just that i 'm starting to figure out that the definition of a good woman is not somebody who 's -- who 's just sweet and nice and all that kind of thing . you need to have some fire and you have to be able to stand up and you have to be able to protect your children when -- you know , at any cost . whew . i 've -- i 've kind of done a disservice , kind of been quick to judge with you , because i had preconceived notions and -- you -- you 're an amazing woman , and my -- my children are -- are very lucky to have you as their mother . carly : thank you . that means a lot to me . sonny : you know , i mean , you -- you took a big chance coming here , making me see what i did n't want to see . i mean , why , did you think that it would n't turn out ugly ? carly : because i know you . and whether you realize it or not , you 're ready to get better . i just was along for the process . i want to make something clear . i have never doubted in my mind , ever , that your mother did n't love you . i know that she would want you to be happy and she would n't want you to think about all the bad things that happened to her , and she would n't want you to think about what she did or she did n't do . she 'd want you to be whole , sonny , and she would want you to be happy . you have to make the choice .

scott : you two can make all the racket you want . johnny zacchara murdered my son and i want his head on a stick . nikolas : but you put up a reward to capture him and now lulu 's a target . scott : yeah , well , she knew what she was doing when she helped him escape . lucky : baldwin , if the wrong person sees that bulletin , lulu could wind up dead . is that really what you want ? [ scene_break ] reporter : john zacchara and lulu spencer were last seen stealing a city official 's car at gunpoint outside the police precinct in port charles . zacchara was under arrest for the murder of logan hayes . a reward of $ 100,000 has been offered for any information -- lourdes : sal , come here . you got to see this . reporter : leading to zacchara 's capture and arrest . [ scene_break ] johnny : the port charles police have no clue we 're in manhattan . we 've got a safe place to stay , a relatively plausible cover story , and -- hey , we do n't need to sneak away to the zacchara garden shed for some privacy . lulu : that 's the best part . lulu : no , no . johnny : what is wrong ? [ scene_break ] claudia : where 's the proof that you can save john from a murder charge ? ric : we 'll get to that . first , i kind of want to know what 's in it for me . claudia : blackmail ? or is this extortion ? either way , you 're speaking a language i understand . ric : claudia , what i want to know is what you 're prepared to give me in exchange for your brother 's freedom and his life . claudia : whatever you want . [ scene_break ] jason : like i said , there 's no evidence against me . cops are going to have to release me soon . sonny : meanwhile , everything i built , everything i entrusted to you is vulnerable . jason : the business is not at risk , sonny . sonny : you know that because ? jason : because the zaccharas are dealing with johnny right now . they do n't have any time to make any type of hostile moves . south american partners , that whole situation is stable . all shipments are on track . sonny : but who 's running things ? come on , diane ? bernie ? jason : i 'm running things . sonny : well , from in here , your rivals know that you 're out of commission . they could be making a move . they could be taking advantage of you . you know , you never know what 's coming in weeks or months . jason : bernie is keeping me informed . there 's nothing to worry about right now . sonny : yeah , but you -- you could be underestimating the damage . jason : why -- why are -- why are you pushing me so hard ? sonny : because i do n't think you 're being realistic about this situation . jason : if you came here to tell me something , just tell me . jason : i mean , do you want the business back ? [ scene_break ] ric : this is logan hayes ' service record . read it for yourself . claudia : `` corporal hayes pulled a knife on private krespy , accusing krespy of flirting with hayes ' female companion . a fight ensued . hayes stabbed krespy in the arm . `` so you 're planning on making a defense out of the idea that whenever there was a problem with logan and a woman , he would go after the competition with a knife ? ric : that 's an oversimplification , but yes . claudia : okay , well , a barroom brawl is a lot different than a murder charge . ric : it speaks to a pattern of behavior , claudia . look , i can argue that johnny probably killed logan in self - defense . claudia : then why did he cover it up ? ric : because johnny had been railroaded once before by logan 's father . special prosecutor baldwin was sure to get a conviction and johnny figures `` nobody 's going to believe my story , `` so he takes off . claudia : what about the kidnapping , ric ? what about fleeing custody ? i mean -- ric : look , all of those lesser charges can be pled down . the first order of business is to make sure that johnny beats the original murder charge . claudia : you know , you 're selling me a great big load of maybe here . the truth is you have no way of knowing whether or not you can make john a free man or even if you can keep him alive . [ scene_break ] scott : johnny and lulu , the lovebirds , they 're up to their necks in this . lucky : there 's no proof of that . scott : sure , there is . lulu , a chip off the old spencer block . nikolas : will you just -- you just listen to me for a second ? you put out a reward . it just brings out all the crazy people . they 'll shoot first and ask questions later . lucky : she could be killed . scott : well , she should 've thought about that before she got mixed up in this . nikolas : could you show a little bit of compassion here ? scott : where was the compassion for my son ? nikolas : he was obsessed with her . that 's not lulu 's fault . scott : yeah , it is her fault . she 's the one that messed -- started this whole thing . she played logan against johnny and then she cozied up to logan . she was running around with johnny . logan was in love with her and that provoked johnny to kill logan . lucky : you can not put this crime on lulu . scott : yes , i can . she killed logan . she might as well stuck the knife in herself . [ scene_break ] johnny : what 's wrong ? [ lulu chuckles ] lulu : my parents used to always tell me these exciting stories about being on the run . and it seemed like it was going to be a rite of passage for every spencer , and here i am , nervous wreck . johnny : you 're doing great . lulu : except for all my panic attacks . johnny : no , you 're braver than i am . you 're the one that went out and stocked up on food and supplies while i stayed here in this apartment safe and sound . lulu : i just wish that i could relax . johnny : just try to act natural . lulu : right , joe and linda from chicago . johnny : two ordinary people hanging out in my dead piano teacher 's apartment . lulu : i just thought of something . what if your dad remembers that you had lessons from professor siegel and he tracks us down ? johnny : my mother took care of all the lessons . my father never even thought about things like that . it 'll never cross his mind that we 're here , okay ? we made a clean getaway . sal and lourdes bought our cover story . we got nothing to worry about . lulu : right . [ scene_break ] reporter : john zacchara is the son of the reputed mob boss anthony zacchara , and should be considered armed and dangerous . sal : lourdes ! what are you yelling about ? lourdes : it was a funny commercial , but it 's over . you missed it . sal : que ? tu estas loca ? you almost gave me a heart attack here . i thought you had a psycho coming out of the closet or something . nina , estas loca .

[ carly sighs ] carly : okay . i have never been with a more sweet and kind and accepting man . do you remember the night that we were getting ready for bed and the reality of losing michael hit me like a ton of bricks and i could n't stop crying ? and you laid there with me and you talked to me and you calmed me down . and you were reminding me of all the wonderful , joyful times that we had with michael . jax : yeah . yeah , we were laughing about something . i ca n't remember what it was . carly : i do n't either . but you touched my heart , like you always do . and i know being married to you has been the happiest time of my life . and if you were honest with yourself , you 'll admit that you have been happy , too . jax : no , i have . carly : okay , but then can that just be enough for right now ? can , right here in this moment , we just be happy together ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i was just offering my help . it does n't mean i want to take back the business . jason : are you sure ? sonny : you agreed to take control on one condition , that i sign away my kids . i have done that to keep my family safe . nothing 's changed . i 'm out , i 'm staying out . jason : okay , so why do you keep showing up telling me how i should be running things ? sonny : because , as -- as your friend , i see that you 're not doing things right . i 've worked more than a decade , adding territory , building power , and i just see that you 're letting things fall apart . jason : what are you talking -- nothing 's falling apart . sonny : when things start to go downhill , they slip quickly . if you 're not strong enough to hold on to the territory , everybody 's in danger . [ scene_break ] ric : i 'm not a magician , claudia . the mess you and johnny made trying to cover up logan 's murder is not going to be easy to clean up . claudia : if you think it 's such a lost case , then why are you here ? ric : it 's called damage control , sweetie . we want to make sure that john does n't end up behind bars for the rest of his life , or worse yet , gunned down by the police . first things first , john 's going to have to turn himself in . claudia : yeah , i doubt that 's high on his to - do list . ric : really ? did he try to contact you ? okay , you know what , claudia ? if this is going to work out between the two of us , you are going to have to trust me . now , john 's on the run and he 's not by himself . he 's got an emotional young woman with him . claudia : i do n't give a damn about lulu spencer . ric : well , i 'm sure you do n't , but johnny does , and right now , johnny 's thinking about her and worrying about her and he 's not thinking too rationally right now . so sooner or later , that 's going to trip the both of them up . and scott baldwin will get his revenge . [ scene_break ] nikolas : all you 're trying to do is get revenge on luke and laura , scott , by persecuting their daughter . scott : lulu is poison . lucky : you make one more crack about lulu , i swear -- scott : i tried to warn logan that lulu was going to break his heart , but he would n't listen to me . he was in love with her . and guess what ? she ended up getting him killed . lucky : logan was violent . scott : he has a temper . so do i . it 's not a crime . lucky : we have testimony from independent sources -- kate howard , dr. matt hunter -- on the last days of logan 's life , that he was combative , that he was delusional for lulu , that he showed up at her workplace insisting they get back together . scott : well , you know , what it sounds a little bit like what your father did to your mother . but everyone said that he was , you know , romantic and he was the hero . so why is my dead son to blame for the fact that he went after lulu the same way that your father went after laura ?

[ scene_break ] carly : you got in a fight with the mayor 's wife , and then you pulled on to harbor view road driving like a maniac . you 're the one who drove claudia off the road . then you showed up later to check out the evidence . alexis : carly , where are you getting this from ? carly : i was there . it was n't michael 's car , and i 'm beginning to think it was yours . alexis : i saw the report -- the description that you gave to lucky . in that report , you said that you could n't clearly recall the car -- carly : i said that it was a small , light - colored car , kind of like the new white hybrid you 're driving around . alexis : i understand your need to protect your son . i would do the same thing if i were in your position . carly : you know what mac told me ? you were the only suspect until michael confessed . alexis : carly , i did n't do it , nor was i charged . carly : and now you 're taking advantage of michael , who is confused and -- alexis : michael walked into that police station on his own and -- carly : michael is innocent , and i am not gon na let you frame him , you self- righteous bitch , 'cause it 's not gon na happen ! do you hear me ? jax : alexis ? what are you doing here this late ? alexis : jax , i 'm sorry . carly : alexis is the one that caused the accident , and now she 's trying to frame michael .

[ scene_break ] kristina : maybe my mother 's wrong . maybe diane miller can get you out of this . she gets jason and our dad acquitted all the time . michael : yeah , and i 'm sure the quartermaines will help me out , too , but that 's not the point . i killed our unborn baby brother , and i should pay for that . kristina : you did n't mean to hurt anyone . you were just driving too fast . michael : i was trying to catch up with the guy who cut me off , then these headlights came out of nowhere , and i ran claudia off the road . i did n't even stop . kristina : are you absolutely sure it was claudia 's car ? michael : it had to be . kristina : you were n't the only person out driving the point tonight . maybe someone else -- michael : when i was little , um , and things got dangerous , my dad would send me and morgan off to the island . kristina : what was it like ? michael : paradise , you know ? beaches forever . dad owned everything -- the buildings , casinos , the island itself , you know ? we would hang out on the beach all day almost every day . kristina : i always wanted to go . michael : you were invited . kristina : is that what dad told you ? michael : i mean , yeah , i 'm sure you were . yeah , we would have had such a good time . kristina : my mom would have never let me go anyway . michael : well , it did get lonely , you know ? but the one thing i learned was that sometimes it 's a good idea to just disappear . kristina : you do n't mean now . michael : it 'll be better for everyone . kristina : where will you go ? michael : i do n't know . not the island 'cause that 's the first place dad 'll look . i 'll go ... who knows ? um , somewhere . canada ? mexico ? you know , i 'll just vanish like jason used to . i 'll change my name . i 'll get a job . kristina : what about school ? michael : dad barely even finished high school . he did fine . kristina : but your situation is completely different . you have serious medical issues ! michael : look , dad dealt with a lot of stuff when he was younger , too , but he never asked anyone to get him out of trouble . dad took care of himself , and so will i .

[ scene_break ] [ monitors beeping ] sonny : i need to tell you something . claudia : i know . it was michael . sonny : and i know that you think like i do , and you -- you want justice . you want revenge . in your heart , you want whoever did this to pay even though it was an accident . claudia : our baby deserved to live . sonny : it was -- it was my fault he did n't get the chance . i bought michael this car , and now ... he 's paying for my mistake . claudia : no , sonny . it 's our baby who paid . sonny : punishing michael is not gon na bring our baby back . claudia : i know . sonny : i ca n't lose another child . claudia : what are you asking me to do ? [ scene_break ] olivia : i know how to keep a secret , john , and this -- this just was n't one to tell . this was on jax . he felt guilty . he blamed himself for jerry being in town when claudia hired him . johnny : yeah , but claudia would have hired somebody else . she was determined , okay ? but why would jerry tell jax anyway ? olivia : i do n't know . some kind of twisted remorse or something ? i ... then carly found out that she was pregnant , and then she basically found out that she would die if she got stressed out . so it just seemed like the thing to do to keep it quiet . and so i did . johnny : wow . so you could have destroyed carly 's life at any time , huh ? olivia : well , i do n't want anyone 's murder on my hands , not even claudia 's . sonny would have killed her . and then she got pregnant . johnny : yeah , well , heh ! she 's not pregnant anymore . so now claudia 's back to square one , and when sonny finds out that she 's responsible for michael 's shooting , he 's gon na kill her . [ scene_break ] claudia : what 's gon na happen to michael now ? sonny : i got no right to ask you what i 'm gon na ask you , but my son 's future 's at stake , so ... did you see the car that ran you off the road ? claudia : i do n't remember anything except just the , um ... i remember the lights and , um , the crash , and the pain , then carly calling 911 . sonny : okay , here 's the thing . carly says that the car that swerved to hit you or whatever , it was not michael 's . and here 's what i need from you . could you back her up ? could you say that the car was n't michael 's ? claudia : i 'll say whatever you need me to . sonny : thanks . [ scene_break ] [ monitors beeping ] alexis : honestly , i was just trying to help . jax : i know , i know , but you should 've checked with me first . alexis : all right . i had no idea that she thought i could have caused the accident . jax : carly 's convinced the car she saw force claudia off the road was n't michael 's , okay ? alexis : do you believe her ? jax : of course i believe her , but i have n't seen much hard evidence either way . alexis : but michael confessed . jax : look , he is a minor recovering from brain damage . any competent lawyer can get his confession thrown out . alexis : [ sighs ] i hope so . but this is pretty serious since claudia now has miscarried . if michael did do this , covering up is only gon na make it worse . [ scene_break ] jason : so if -- if kristina did this , would she have michael take the fall ? sam : i do n't know . kristina is under relentless pressure to be perfect . i do n't think she has the option of confessing right now . jason : so she 'd let michael take the blame . sam : michael is surrounded by people who genuinely love him . he 's got you and carly and -- and jax and sonny and -- and the quartermaines . he 's got everybody . the more he messes up , the more people adore him . it is -- it 's a different story for kristina . she is desperately seeking alexis ' approval , and you know she has got pretty high standards . i just think that kristina 's afraid that if she confesses , she 'll lose her mom . jason : i 'm sorry , but i can not let michael pay for what kristina did . sam : i understand . and just like you feel like you have to protect michael , i have to protect kristina .

'cause it 's all about you . dante : apparently so . dante : there 's not anything i would n't do for you . lulu : really ? that 's good , 'cause i have a favor to ask you . dante : anything . lulu : could you not have so many close calls ? dante : i 'm just trying to remind you not to take me for granted . lulu : oh , well . you live a very charmed life , detective . dante : well , it became downright enchanted when you showed up . lulu : wow . that 's really sweet , or your worst line yet . jason : you should have seen franco 's art show . there was video running . footage of him and me projected on the side of a building . sam : what for ? jason : to push my buttons . and there was a girl who looked like you . and he had her in the exact same box that he had you in . and franco put a gun to her head and everybody acted like it was some weird art , something to entertain them . sam : yeah ? jason : and then there was the video of the dirtbag who went after michael in prison . sam : i do n't understand why he keeps trying to provoke you . jason : i 'm not sure . i still do n't know . but i chased franco out onto the roof of the museum . i came out of the stairwell , and he was already on the far side of the roof near the edge . and he yelled out to me . and then he jumped . disappeared over the side , smashing into the middle of the crowd . everybody thought it was part of the show . people started applauding . sam : that is so weird . jason : anyway , the cops think i pushed him , but i didn't . sam : of course -- no . come on , i believe you . jason : i know you do . but it 's just one more thing that franco did that made no sense to me . sam : hey , hey , hey . can we just ... i do n't want to talk about franco anymore . i do n't want to waste what little time we have left doing that . i just want to be with you . oh , this is good . jason : oh , yeah , this is good . spinelli : fair samantha , it 's happened , a breakthrough ! stone cold ! ah ! you 're back ! i have come up with a means to set you free . johnny : it 's hard to remember exactly where it all started . if i had to guess , it would be right around the time where sonny accused me for kidnapping michael and then shooting kate . you know kate , right ? brook lynn : no , but i have heard of connie . johnny : ah , ok , well , kate got shot on her wedding day . and sonny blamed me for the whole thing . he had his goons pick me up , that 's putting it nicely , and they dragged me to this abandoned psychiatric hospital where they held me and beat the crap out of me for days . tried to force me to cop to something that i never even did . so claudia , in typical claudia fashion , wanted retribution . took out a hit on sonny , hired this guy who ... long story short , the guy missed . bullet ricocheted , and it hit michael . brook lynn : oh . ok , so that 's how michael ended up in the coma . and then after all of this , sonny went and married claudia ? johnny : heh , match made in heaven , right ? man . and sonny finally found out that claudia was responsible for the shooting . he went ballistic , called her out in front of a room full of people . claudia , in turn , kidnapped carly . i 'm sure you know the events that happened the rest of the night . it was just a whole snowball . brook lynn : i 'm really sorry about your sister . johnny : thank you . she had her issues , though . my father treated her like crap . so in turn , she would always go after the guy who would treat her that way . and sonny had no problem using claudia , you know . he 'd call her his wife in order to get what he wanted , and that finally just destroyed her . and really , nobody 's ever held him accountable for any of it . that 's what i 'm here for . that should be your cue to run for the hills . brook lynn : you can take the last one . carly : you know , i 've never been in prison , but when you were a baby , i was in a psychiatric facility called ferncliff . and that was hell for me . you had no control at all and it just makes you feel so vulnerable . and there were some things that happened to me in there i never thought i could get over . but i did . michael : how ? carly : i talked to someone , and it really helped me . michael : look , mom , i did n't get out of prison so i can sit down and discuss my feelings with some stranger . carly : i 'm not talking about some stranger . i 'm talking about jason . michael : after franco 's caught , he 's not going to be around anymore . carly : you do n't know that . michael : mom , he 's going to be on the run or back in pentonville . carly : ok , you know what , how about me ? i 'm a good listener . you 're an adult . you 're way past the age of thinking talking to your mom 's lame , so you can talk to me . michael : yeah , you 're right , mom , i am an adult . but sometimes when i hear myself , i just sound like some whiny kid . carly : michael ... michael : look , i spent a few weeks in prison , so what ? kristina : hi . carly : hey . michael : were you with ethan this whole time ? kristina : i took a nap in the chair while he slept . and then the nurse came in and they had to take him for some tests , and the policeman said i had to come back and wait here . carly : i 'm going to go see how long this lockdown is going to be in effect . michael : no offense , but it looks like you have n't slept at all . kristina : i do n't know if i 'll ever be able to sleep again . every time i close my eyes , i have the worst nightmares . elizabeth : lucky 's right . the hospital needs to stay on lockdown . and i want to help find my son . nikolas : i 'm gon na go see if i can find anything new . steve : there must be some kind of compromise . i mean , we have a hospital full of patients who need more care than we 're able to give them under these conditions . lucky : ok . we 'll allow a limited number of medical personnel through one set of doors . we 'll need someone from hospital administration to identify and clear them . we 'll have a couple of officers take the visitors into the cafeteria and keep them there . and we 'll try to keep hallway traffic to staff and emergency care . steve : that works for me . no one is going to leave this hospital . i promise . we 're going to find aiden . elizabeth : what are you thinking ? lucky : something 's staring us right in the face and we 're not seeing it . dante : when i was in the plaza in l.a. , i saw this beautiful blond , and i thought , that is one hell of a double for lulu . and then it was you . so really , what were you doing in l.a. ? lulu : i told you , i was worried about you . dante : hmm . that 's nice . do n't ever do it again . lulu : what , you 're the only one who can take chances ? dante : well , it 's my job . you could have got hurt . lulu : but i was n't , and franco 's been stopped . dante : yeah , and this time tomorrow jason will be going back to pentonville . lulu : so what about you ? are you going to go after sonny ? [ elevator opening ] dante : you know , we really got ta work out a privacy plan for michael . lulu : how about this ? [ both giggling ] dante : uh , kind of busy here . ronnie : yeah , i can see that . dante : you know , new rule , maybe you call first before you just decide to show up . ronnie : well , why do n't you just answer me this -- why is n't jason morgan back in pentonville doing other people 's laundry ? spinelli : the jackal has used his superior cyber skills to sabotage the lock on stone cold 's ankle monitor . within mere moments , you could be free to roam far and wide . sam : ok , now when did you have time to figure this out ? spinelli : well , my intention initially was to give young michael the ability to roam around freely . you know , perhaps mr . sir would look more kindly upon the jackal if he was able to access his son without fear of michael 's re- incarceration . sam : i thought this was supposed to be foolproof . spinelli : well , i 'm certain no fool could have done what i have . jason : so you 're telling me that i can disable my ankle monitor without triggering the alarm ? spinelli : yes , disable and remove , creating ideal circumstance for you to disappear . we could then place the monitor in some obscure location , creating a perfect distraction . you could be halfway to anywhere you would like , and the law abiding ones will be pursuing the most confusing distractions . sam : yes ! i love you , spinelli . ah ! thank you ! spinelli : i 'm fond of you as well . sam : ok , now we just have to figure out where we want to go . to keep in balance after 50 , steve : more staff are on their way to take over some of the load , but i just wanted you all to know how impressed i am with how you 've handled this crisis . robin : well , the situation wo n't really be handled until elizabeth 's baby is found . steve : i agree . lisa : well , i 'm sure that steve is doing the best job that he can . patrick : does that mean the patients ' families can go home ? lucky : no , no one 's leaving . arrivals will be cleared by police and hospital security at the doors . steve : and in the meantime , while you all are doing your own job , please , please keep your eyes open for anything that seems off . sooner baby cassadine 's found , the sooner we can return to normal . man on p.a . : dr. rodriguez , call pediatrics . dr. lucia rodriguez , call pediatrics . robin : poor steve . his own nephew . patrick : well , he 's holding up pretty well . robin : i think steve 's the kind of guy , the more upset he is , the better he hides it . i ca n't imagine how elizabeth and nikolas must feel right now . patrick : no , a newborn baby , a preemie , it 's a parent 's worst nightmare . i -- robin : i called . emma 's ok . patrick : so did i . robin : judy told me that you sang her the happy puppy song ? patrick : she was n't supposed to tell you that . robin : well , you ca n't keep secrets from me . of course , i pretended i knew exactly what she was talking about . oh , yeah , the happy puppy song . but why you have not sang it to me ? patrick : it 's a song that we made up because she was missing you , and i wanted to make her feel better . robin : you 're such a good dad , and a wonderful husband . do you know how blessed we are ? patrick : you show me every day . robin : when i was sitting with my uncle mac , i realized how close i was to losing him . it just makes me so grateful for everything i have , and i really , i do n't tell you enough how much you mean to me and how much i depend on you . i love you so much . patrick : i love you , too . desk nurse : hmm , sorry . dr. drake . patrick : hmm ? desk nurse : you 've been paged to 305 . patrick : ok , thank you . duty calls . i 'll see you later . robin : ok . steve : just between us , are n't the first few hours a child goes missing the most critical ? lucky : usually , yeah . steve : so it 's already been too long . lucky : if i could just figure out what franco wanted with the baby , i might be able to find aiden . i mean , he had to have given his accomplise instructions . steve : like what to do in case of his death . lucky : yeah . that would be nice . you know , franco had a way of hiding in plain sight . you know what , i may have just answered my own question . dante : oh , he 's still here . ronnie : yeah . you know , according to jason morgan 's ankle monitor , he 's at home . but you 're here . which gives him another opportunity to escape . dante : yeah , you know what , the only place jason morgan is going is back to prison when i take him there at 5 : 00 p.m. today . ronnie : you know , it occurs to me that maybe you want jason morgan to run . dante : [ chuckles ] you know , i 'm curious . what possible motive would i have in assisting jason 's escape when my badge is on the line ? ronnie : ok , well , here it goes . jason is sonny 's enforcer , and he 's useless in prison , right . so if he escapes , he could set up shop on some tropical island and run the business offshore . and then that keeps your daddy untouchable . and by the way , i think your daddy would be really grateful to his firstborn for helping out with that . dante : wow . you know , i 'm pretty much done with all your digs about how easy i 'm going on sonny . ronnie : godfather shoots a cop point blank in the chest . now , said cop does n't press charges . you would have questions , too . dante : you know what , i think it 's time for you to leave . i 'll deal with jason . ronnie : you know , what a shame , you know . the lines start to blur , you start making excuses , and you think that just once you could turn your head and look the other way . but that is when you lose your moral compass . or , you know , maybe when somebody else 's son dies because of corinthos , maybe you 'll remember that . dante : so , how about some breakfast ? lulu : are you asking me to make it or to eat it ? dante : no , i 'll cook . you just stay there looking gorgeous , right there . lulu : what if he 's right ? what if jason tries to escape ? spinelli : passports , drivers licenses for 3 different states , and social security cards . sam : you 're kidding me , these are perfect , spinelli . spinelli : i would recommend that you drive to jfk , and then fly to one of the 5 locations that i 've selected . oh , here are your confirmations . sam : let 's see . what about money ? spinelli : well , my recent venture into post - maximista bachelorhood has left me plenty of time to focus on stone cold 's business affairs , particularly his offshore portfolio . so my arrangements have provided you the means to be financially free . i also had the good sense to select locations that have warmer winters and less humid summers -- sam : that 's so awesome . i ca n't thank you enough , really . ok , well , what about you ? what are you going to do ? spinelli : i will remain here , in my regrettably pink room . i will do my best to find a worthy partner for mccall and jackal p.i . , though no one could ever replace you , of course . nor stone cold , for that matter . um ... but i will soldier on . and maybe someday make the journey to join you . but in the meantime , we must make haste . i will fetch the tool necessary to disable the apparatus . jason : no . i appreciate everything you did . but i 'm not going to run . [ sighs ] jason : we ca n't leave . sam : why not ? jason : because we can't . you have to leave your sisters , your mom , your life . i 'd have to leave carly and her kids , especially michael right now at this point . and , you know , spinelli , the cops would be all over you if we leave for who knows how long . spinelli : stone cold , you are constantly sacrificing for those you value . why can i do the honorable thing and help -- sam : because jason would never let you suffer while he 's free , that 's why . jason : 'cause i made a choice , and i need to live with it . sam : spinelli , can you please give us a moment ? thank you . [ door closes ] sam : i have backed you up on everything so far , including you going to prison to protect michael . you have a chance at freedom , and you 're turning it down ? i 'm sorry , jason , i ca n't back you up on this . michael : the dreams will stop . the dreams will stop . or at least they 'll fade . but hey , until then , you 've got me , ok ? i do n't care if it 's the middle of the night . you call me and we 'll talk for as long as you need . kristina : i love you , michael . michael : i love you , too . carly : oh , i hope i 'm not interrupting . kristina : oh , it 's just me having a moment . michael : you 're allowed . carly : i think we 're all allowed . i called home . morgan and josslyn are fine . mercedes is taking good care of them . michael : good . kristina : i think i 'm going to sneak back over to ethan 's room . a lot has happened to him because of me , and the least i can do is keep him company . carly : how is she really ? michael : messed up . i told her to give it time . carly : michael ... [ cell phone rings ] michael : hmm ? carly : it 's the hotel . thought it might have been jax , you know , calling to check in or something . michael : mom , i 'm sure he would call if he knew what was happening . carly : yeah , he 's obviously too busy to check his messages . guess that 's what being separated is all about , right ? michael : what , you just stop caring ? carly : i can't . i 've tried . i love jax , you know . and i hate the idea of him moving on . johnny : thank you . brook lynn : you 're very welcome . ok , so i 'm still having trouble understanding how 2 people can see someone so differently . let 's take sonny , right ? he 's my godfather , and he has always been good , always been good to me . but then my father could n't stand him , and my mom , she was very close with him , their whole lives . johnny : wow . you know , you sound like that whole legion of sonny fans that 's got a million and one reasons why i 'm wrong and sonny 's deserving a sainthood . brook lynn : really ? johnny : mm - hmm . brook lynn : now , i would n't go that far . johnny : well , but you 're saying he 's a good guy , right ? that he 's good to his kids , he gives money to the hospital , he 's got a big heart . does n't drown puppies . brook lynn : did i say that ? no . what i was going to say is that this is your game with sonny . it 's all you . and you can feel however you want to feel and you can do the things you want to do , but that does n't mean i have to agree with you . the truth is , i should n't even care . johnny : why do you ? brook lynn : i trust my instincts . and i feel like , if you 're going to be so passionate and stubborn , then there 's got ta be more to it . johnny : then why give me the benefit of the doubt ? brook lynn : oh , ok , so are you saying i should n't ? patrick : ahh . um , i 'm gon na have to come back with a nurse . there 's no chart out here , and we 're a little bit out of the ordinary right now . lisa : you 've been working too hard , doctor , so let me help you relax . patrick : what are you doing ? what are you doing ? lisa : ok , so you do n't want your wife to know that we are involved . all right , that 's fine . so we can just -- we can meet and we can have sex whenever we want . this can be our little secret . patrick : don't . stop it . lisa : ok , it 's what we both want . and you know that i can be discreet . patrick : look at me . you need to stop what you 're doing . lisa : or what ? lisa : do n't worry , sweet robin does n't need to know . patrick : stop it , enough . lisa : oh , you 're in danger of becoming a very dull boy . patrick : you know what , i 've tried to be nice . but for god sake , have some self respect . lisa : ok , you do n't use me and then throw me away . patrick : if that 's what it takes to get through to you , that 's exactly what i 'm going to do . lisa : ok , you do n't do what we did , and then you turn around and act like i mean nothing to you . steve : hey , hey , if you need help , you should call a nurse ! elizabeth : is a nurse going to help me find my baby ? steve : lizzie , you have lucky and nikolas combing this place from top to bottom with a whole bunch of cops . and the staff has been alerted -- elizabeth : oh , the staff . it 's a little late for that , is n't it ? come on , you 're the chief of staff . do n't you take any responsibility for what 's happened in this hospital ? steve : i know you 're freaking out , but i do n't -- elizabeth : you tell me , you tell me which one of your big plans made it ok for a baby to be stolen . how someone who probably is n't even a nurse had access to the babies . is n't the nursery supposed to be the safest place ? steve : i know sorry is n't enough . but i swear , we 'll do a thorough evaluation -- elizabeth : he 's gone . steven , my son is missing and it 's all your fault . nikolas : lucky , i got your page , what ? lucky : nursery staff inventoried all the monitors . aiden 's was n't among them , so -- nikolas : ... had access to the equipment to do it with . lucky : yeah , i mean , it was probably here the whole time . i do n't know how we missed it . franco 's plant could have taken him out of the hospital before the lockdown even began . ok , ok . dante : this is a really bad idea . brook lynn : why is that ? johnny : is there something wrong , officer ? is it suddenly against the law to have breakfast in the company of a pretty lady ? dante : no . i mean , hey , the upside to whatever this is is i can tell my mother you 've moved on , which is great . but for the future , maybe you should consider brook off - limits . johnny : wow . since when did that become your call ? sam : you ca n't just expect me to just step aside and let you go back to prison . i love you . jason : i love you , too . i know it 's going to be tough , but i 'm going to do my time , and i might even get out early . sam : get out early ? i 'm sorry for being a realist , jason . you may serve 2 to 5 years , but considering how many people want you dead , i really do n't see that happening . jason : look , i can take care of myself -- sam : i know ! i know you can , and that is the problem here . what happens when you kill somebody because you have to defend yourself ? then that 5 years turns into a life sentence . i 'm sorry , the only thing that looks like an idea of a possibility of spending a life with you is doing what spinelli says -- jason : look , sam , i -- sam : i know , jason , i know . our families . we 'd be leaving everybody , everybody that we love . i want a life with you . and i thought you wanted one with me , too . jason : i do want a life -- sam : ok , so then let 's go . please . jason , i am begging you , please . leave with me , now . leave and never look back .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : so what 's the deal ? you lost the ring . morgan 's loaded , he can afford to buy another bauble . maxie : it is not a bauble . it is a shocking and unexpected display of jason 's good taste . not to mention it 's a symbol of how much he loves sam . a symbol that jason picked out on his own after he worked up the nerve to pop the question . so we 're gon na find it . [ scene_break ] nikolas : sort of feels like returning to the scene of the crime . blood 's been wiped clean , but you can still hear the screams inside these walls . lulu : mom did n't let what happened to her define her . you should n't either . nikolas : you act as if i have a choice . i 'm a cassadine . molded in the images of those before me -- my father and my grandfather , even my uncle . all monsters in their own right . lulu : helena wants you to doubt yourself , to think that you 're no better than she is . do n't let her inside your head . nikolas : oh , it 's not what 's inside my head that concerns me , lulu . it 's what 's in my heart . lulu : you have a good heart , nikolas . there is n't anything you would n't do for the people you love . nikolas : i 'm not as selfless as you may think , lulu . lulu : you donated your bone marrow when i was a baby and saved my life . you gave me a second chance . that 's exactly what you 're doing with lucky by letting him be a father to aiden . nikolas : lucky was hanging on by a string when jake died . he needs to believe that aiden is his son whether he is or he is n't . lulu : that 's the definition of selfless to me . nikolas : yeah . well , it 's more like a force of habit if you ask me . when i first moved to port charles , everyone was so concerned about how lucky would feel knowing that his mother had another son . never mind how i would feel needing the woman who left me behind . you understand ? i was the inconvenience , the big dark secret that came to town to haunt the perfect spencer family . that 's how i experienced it . lulu : but mom loves you and you know that . nikolas : it 's always about lucky , is n't it ? it 's always about lucky . what does he need ? how does he feel ? is he happy ? well , what about my happiness ? for years i begged and i begged and i begged for acceptance , trying to prove that i was worthy to be a part of your family . and with aiden , i finally had a family of my own . i was happy . he would grow up with his brother spencer , loving him the way it should be . and now i 'm expected to give that up so lucky can be happy . lulu : but you chose to walk away . nikolas : you know , i often wonder if it were the other way around would people rush to make sure that aiden ended up with me ? i think not . lulu : i ... i thought that you wanted lucky to heal and you wanted to move on . nikolas : yes , that is exactly what i want , to move on . no spencers , no cassadines . lulu : so is this a new nikolas ? to hell with everyone else ? nikolas : lulu , there 's nothing new about a cassadine living in darkness . that 's what we do . lulu : it 's amazing what happens to people inside this place . i mean , look what 's already happening to you . nikolas : ok . i do not care what people think of me or my motives anymore . ok ? the only one looking for approval right now is you . lulu : what ? do you know where my dad is ? has helena done something to him ? you know something ? nikolas : uh , do i know something ? yes , i know something . and that is you should leave here and never come back . [ scene_break ] spinelli : you know , i never figured morgan for grade - a domestication . maxie : people get married for all kinds of reasons . spinelli : it all boils down to one thing -- dame heats a guy up and he goes wall - eyed . maxie : the physical aspect is only part of it . sometimes two people who do n't even find each other attractive , who actually think each other are annoying , get to know each other and find what the person is underneath all those annoying qualities , and they become a different person , a better person , a person you did n't even really know that you were . and then you develop this special connection , you know , like two unique soul shapes fitting together . spinelli : sounds like 10 pounds of hooey in a 5-pound bag . maxie : and then that friendship turns into something more . something wonderful and unexpected . spinelli : do n't tell me you fell for it . maxie : he was an amazing man with an amazing mind . and he was kind and funny and smart . and braver than he ever knew . spinelli : well , get over it , sugar lips , 'cause he sure has . maxie : do n't say that . spinelli : naked ring digit on your left flipper says it all . the guy just was n't that into you . maxie : yes , you were . you loved me .

[ scene_break ] olivia : i tried to evict sonny tonight . he said he was n't gon na go unless you kicked him out , too . come on , i think he 's still there right now . carly : olivia , we 're having dinner . franco : no , no , i think this is a good idea . you should talk about this . olivia : no , no . i - i do n't want that lying cheater in our hotel one more night , especially not in connie 's office . carly : okay , i 'm sorry you guys broke up , but i 'm not gon na kick sonny out . olivia : why the hell not ? carly : because it 's none of my business . olivia : when has that ever stopped you before ? franco : she makes a valid point . carly : that 's not helping . ned : olivia , come on . let 's go get that drink . olivia : no , no , wait . i 'm not going until i get my answer here . carly : this is between you and sonny . olivia : well , i tried to kick him out myself , and he said he 's not going unless you kick him out . he 's the one that 's involving you . carly : okay , well , you know what ? as co - owner of this hotel , i 'm not gon na evict a tenant that has a valid lease with us . olivia : what about the morals clause that we used to kick out julian jerome ? carly : oh , come on . this is between you and sonny , okay ? you have to figure it out on your own . olivia : oh , my god . you are so predictable ! this is just what sonny said . he knew that this is how you would react . carly : what ? that i 'm not gon na evict him without cause ? olivia : oh , come on , carly . you would n't dream of going against sonny . you would back that man if you had to trample the pope to do it . carly : no one 's getting trampled here , olivia , okay ? olivia : what about me ? do you even care , the way that he treated me ? do you even care ? he treated me worse than dirt . of course , you do n't . you want to know why ? 'cause you still got a thing for sonny . and you always have , and you always will . [ scene_break ] sam : sonny , you know me . i never would 've broken patrick 's confidence , but silas was adamant that patrick left rafe brain - dead . so i did n't have a choice . i had to talk to him about it . because i thought i would be able to convince silas that patrick did everything he could to save rafe . sonny : right . but silas was n't convinced . sam : no . and patrick only told me . i told silas . that was it . no one else could have talked to the reporter . sonny : did you ask silas about it ? sam : yeah , i did . and he said he did n't say anything to anyone . he swore to it . sonny : but you did n't believe him . sam : at the time , no . but ... oh , i do n't know . it turns out it 's something that we both ca n't get past . sonny : well , you know what , trust is very important . it 's a deal breaker , you know ? sam : it 's a little bit more complicated than that , sonny . silas ' wife , nina , when she showed up , everything just felt weird . it did n't feel right . it was like ... we were trying too hard , or not hard enough . i - i do n't know . it was the final straw , and we broke up over it . sonny : i 'm sorry to hear that . sam : thank you . that 's why i just -- i ca n't let this go . i need to know if someone was eavesdropping on silas and me . sonny : i saw footage of you and silas on the roof , if that 's what you 're looking for . sam : you did ? okay , did you see anyone else with us ? sonny : i did n't -- i did n't look at the whole thing , but you can look at the dvds , they 're right there . sam : ohh . thank you . [ scene_break ] silas : sam and i , just everything that i thought we ... that we had , i just ... it 's gone . well , i do n't know . maybe i was blind , and maybe it was never really there . nina : i know what that feels like . to have a love that you believed in with all your heart . silas : oh , nina , what am i doing ? why am i -- i 'm sorry . nina : no , do n't be sorry . silas : no , i - i should n't be dumping all this on you . what -- [ sighs ] i must have drank a lot . nina : i - i think you 're probably exhausted , silas . you 've been through so much in the last 24 hours . why do n't you just ... why do n't you just lie on the couch ? silas : [ sighs ] nina : here . silas : what ? no . i 'm fine . nina : yes . yes . hey , do n't argue with me . just lie on the couch . take a rest . come on . silas : i am kind of tired . nina : yeah , i 'm sure . silas : maybe just for a minute . nina : okay . silas : [ sighs ] nina : there you go . silas : oh ... nina : hey , do you remember when i used to massage your shoulders when you 'd come home from a long shift during your residency ? after 24 hours shifts or something ? oh , you 'd be ... do you remember that ? you 'd be so exhausted , but so wired you could n't sleep . and so i 'd just help you relax . silas : oh , that feels nice . nina : good . i 'm so glad . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry about your nephew . i 'm sorry he died . and i 'm sorry that sam does n't trust you . silas : no matter what i said , she ... she just would n't listen to me . she still thinks i betrayed her . nina : to be honest , sam 's is n't right ? by not believing in you . to hold onto that ... silas : i just do n't understand , though . why ... if i did n't say anything to that reporter , and sam -- sam did n't say anything , how 'd that reporter find out what drake said ? [ scene_break ] mickey : jordan , what 's going on here ? jordan : i - i 'm so sorry . i ... i ran into olivia falconeri . um ... she 's -- she 's one of the owners , and she let me in , and ... i wanted to surprise you . um ... but i guess he followed me , and , uh , he knocked on the door , and -- and -- and when i answered , he pushed his way in . mickey : is that so ? jordan : he 's obsessed with me . look , anything that you think is gon na happen between us , you can just get it out of your head right now , okay ? 'cause whatever we had ended a long time ago . so do yourself a favor and just leave us , please . mickey : you heard the lady . she made herself pretty clear . so are you going to leave peaceably ... or are we gon na have trouble ? shawn : okay . i 'll go . but i do n't like it , jordan . jordan : i know what i want . shawn : you mess with this woman , you 'll deal with me . mickey : you still here ? shawn : but what 's the point ? you made your bed . i guess you 'll lie in it . jordan : i 'm really sorry about that . i 'm sorry . mickey : forget butler . i was just happy to get your call . when you said you wanted to pick up where we left off ... i hope that means we 're on the same page . [ scene_break ] alexis : yes , julian and i have decided to cool it . molly : that 's great news , is n't it , danny ? i mean , i know he 's your grandpa , but you have plenty of other relatives who are much more trustworthy . alexis : instead of turning danny against his grandfather , perhaps you and tj might put him to bed ? tj : uh - oh , buddy . busted by the bedtime police . alexis : yeah , the only bedtime police is his mother . and if we do n't get him to bed when she said he 's supposed to go to bed , we 're all gon na be in trouble . so i 'll order a pizza while you do that , okay ? tj : all right . come on , danny , let 's get you to sleep . molly : come on . [ danny cries ] molly : oh , i know . i know . we got to go night - night . alexis : all right . i love you . molly : oh , it 's okay . alexis : night - night , sweetheart . julian : hey , alexis , it 's , uh , julian . but i 'm sure you knew that . that 's why you did n't answer the phone . but do n't worry . i understand . i , uh , was just checking in on you , and ... [ scene_break ] julian : so , you confessed to shooting olivia , that 's why sonny 's holding onto a recording that taps him at aj 's death ? i do n't see it . the falconeri woman made a full recovery . it 's not quite the same as murder . ava : well , true , but i shot her . it 's enough to send me to prison . all the more reason to liberate the flash drive . julian : [ sighs ] okay , so where is it ? ava : well , it was in the safe in sonny 's office . i already sent someone to try to get it . julian : who ? ava : my mother . julian : i - i 'm sorry , who ? ava : my mother . julian : are you serious ? ava : i was desperate . julian : so , how 'd that work out for you ? ava : olivia caught her in the act , and now sonny has the flash drive stashed someplace else . maybe somewhere in his house , or maybe in a house that he 's got on a puerto rican island . who knows ? julian : so , if we ca n't get our hands on the proof , how is this gon na help us ? ava : you 're right . if sonny had the only copy , then this would be a lost cause . julian : someone else has a copy ? ava : well , i do n't know for certain . but i think that the person who gave the recording to sonny would be smart enough to keep one . julian : so , the copy 's our target . so who gave sonny the recording ? ava : carly . [ scene_break ] carly : excuse me . i understand you 're pissed off , i do n't blame you , but do n't take it out on me . ned : olivia , this is n't the time to have this conversation . olivia : no , no , no . i 'm not done here . i 'm not done here . no , i 'm not done here . i should 've known that sonny and i would never last . not because of ava and not because of my cousin , god rest her soul , but because of you . because of you . yeah , you . wife , ex , does n't matter . you and sonny always come first to each other , and all the rest of us -- you , me , everyone else -- we 're all just temporary dance partners , just so you know . carly : i 'm sorry . sonny betrayed you , not me . olivia : oh , yeah . and what would happen if he did ? oh , you would 've screamed and yelled , maybe put your kids through the wringer for a while . but when the dust settled , your first loyalty is always to each other . it always has been and it always will be . ned : and we are out of here . yes , you do n't want to do this in front of your staff and your guests . carly : i 'm sorry about that . franco : no big deal . just another person in the world who thinks there 's a magical connection between you and sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : it does n't look like anybody else is up there with you two . sam : mm , you 're right . but our conversation 's not over yet . i mean , when we 're right here , we were talking about rafe and -- and silas ' grief for him , and then we started talking about patrick . wait a minute . sonny : what ? sam : what was that ? look , right there . ah ! come on , the door opened . it 's too heavy to do that on its own . sonny : well , i ca n't -- it 's got to open further than that a little bit . i ca n't see . sam : you do n't see anyone 's face , do you ? sonny : no . sam : okay , that 's fine . this still proves that someone was eavesdropping on silas and me . it has to be nina . [ scene_break ] nina : do n't even think about that reporter , si . most important thing is that sam , she could n't trust you . she thought you lied to her . silas : i was just ... i do n't know . how 'd the reporter know ? [ falls asleep ] nina : silas ? si ? you want to know how that reporter knew ? i told him . i 'm the one who ended your relationship with sam . and now sam is off the list . and soon you will be , too . [ scene_break ] jordan : i want to be part of the organization . i want to be heavy - hitter , meet the big boss . and i 'm willing to do whatever 's necessary to get there . mickey : oh , i 'm glad to hear you say that , 'cause i appreciate loyalty . yeah , i 've found that some people in this business have their own agenda . jordan : hmm . mickey : yeah . unfortunately , i 've discovered recently that some people in our organization are in business for themselves , and i 've had to take steps to bring them in line . someone is going to have to learn the hard way . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] julian : hold that thought . alexis . alexis : i got your message . glad you were thinking about me , 'cause i was thinking about you . julian : and molly ? alexis : she came home with me . julian : well , that 's great . alexis : it is great . tj 's here , danny 's sleeping over , they 're putting the baby to bed , we 're ordering pizza . it 's perfect . julian : enjoy it . alexis : i am . i just wanted to call you back and tell you that i love you , too . julian : and ... ? alexis : and i ca n't wait to sneak around with you again . okay , look , i got to go , because , uh , the kids are gon na be done and back soon . julian : okay . listen , um ... means a lot to me that you called . you have a good night . alexis : you too . i miss you . julian : [ sighs ] okay . you can save your comments for when you do n't owe me proof that sonny shot aj quartermaine . so , you were saying about carly ? ava : she hates me . and the feeling is very mutual . so it only stands to reason that she -- she would n't give the only copy to sonny . she would keep one . to use against me . julian : well , it is true that carly and i briefly dated when i first got back to town , but we 're not exactly on the best of terms either . so however way we do this , she 's gon na see us coming from a mile away . ava : maybe there 's someone that she would n't see coming . [ scene_break ] franco : pasta 's good . carly : do you have a magical connection with it ? [ scene_break ] olivia : you got a skill for seeing me at my best . ned : please , i 'm a quartermaine . nothing you do can come close to what 's gone on in my family . olivia : still , you know what ? i 'm sorry that i keep dragging you into the middle of my messed - up life . ned : i do n't mind . [ scene_break ] sam : okay . i guess that 's it . sonny : sorry i could n't give you the evidence you needed . sam : no , are you kidding me ? this is amazing . i 've got to tell silas that someone was actually eavesdropping . thank you , sonny . thank you . sonny : of course , of course . sam . this silas guy , um ... he makes you happy ? sam : i thought so . i mean , i - i - i thought we were happy . i ca n't let it go , sonny . not until i know why things fell apart . sonny : do n't -- do n't let this nina get away with it . i could n't get olivia back , but maybe this will help you , you know , and silas ... get back together . [ scene_break ] nina : i think that drug worked a little too well . i wanted you to be receptive . ca n't really get a baby out of you if you 're unconscious . can i ? well , this is funny . so ironic . the reason i 'm in this predicament is because my mom drugged me . well , that 's the whole reason i 'm in this predicament , right ? oh , it 's poetic justice , is n't it ? [ sighs ] i lost my baby because of a drug . and now i 'm gon na get a baby because of a drug . silas ? silas . silas : what happened ? nina : um ... i guess my relaxation technique works . silas : i guess so . nina : yeah . silas : so tired . nina : yeah . listen , i - it 's been an exhausting day . you ... listen , i 'd love to join you on the couch . it would be a lot more comfortable than this chair . silas : okay . yeah . [ groans ] nina : i know . i 'm sorry . silas : [ groans as he picks up nina and places her on the couch with him ] [ scene_break ] shawn : hey . sonny : find anything in mickey diamond 's room ? shawn : oh , yeah . jordan . [ scene_break ] jordan : thanks . mickey : i think it 's time to get this party started . shawn : i do n't know what this is all about , but look , whatever it is , jordan , you do n't have to do it . mickey : something wrong ? jordan : no . no , no . i , um , i just think i want to freshen up a little . mickey : oh , all right . while you 're during that , i think i 'll make one for myself . jordan : mm . perfect . [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] alexis : you did n't get him to bed ? tj : he 's on strike . he refuses to sleep without his favorite truck . alexis : i do n't suppose it 's in the overnight bag ? molly : it 's in his room at sam 's . alexis : [ groans ] [ knock on door ] alexis : hey , chris . chris : hey , miss davis . i got your regular , but no pineapple this time . alexis : yeah , well , the pineapple craver 's not here . but i have the rest of my beautiful family here , so we 're gon na celebrate . so , what 's the damage ? chris : well , with your frequent - customer discount , it 's $ 16 . [ scene_break ] ava : like i told carly , franco has quite a jealous streak and poor impulse control . i can not imagine that he appreciates carly becoming some sort of avenging angel for another man . especially sonny . julian : so , i take it that franco and sonny do n't get along . ava : is there anybody that franco does get along with ? but , yes , there does seem to be particular enmity between sonny and franco . i think that franco might be willing to procure that recording for us . with the right motivation . [ scene_break ] franco : sorry i said that . carly : can you be a little more specific ? franco : i 'm sorry i brought it up at all . i should know better than to talk about the special bond that you have with sonny . although , in fairness , olivia 's the one who started it . carly : yeah , olivia is upset . her heart 's been broken , and sonny 's not here , so i 'm the next best thing . franco : okay , but what she said -- carly : what she said about me being loyal to sonny ? yes , i am loyal to sonny , which is why i 'm not gon na evict him or kick him out of his office for the crime of breaking olivia 's heart . whether she forgives him or not , that 's her business . franco : no , what she said , that you want sonny all to yourself . carly : that 's olivia thinking crazy things , all right ? there 's no basis in reality of that . franco : right , 'cause she 's the town crackpot , and we should all just be thankful she 's not walking around in a trance . carly : true . and look -- i - if you 're gon na decide to be jealous of sonny again , i 'm just gon na have to be jealous of your new friend at the hospital . what 's her name , nina ? franco : nina . carly : mm . franco : yeah , we -- we talked about that . i 'm not interested in her at all . besides , she 's married . [ scene_break ] silas : i - i 'm sorry . i must have lost my balance . .. i 'm hurting you . nina : no , no . no . no , no . you 're not hurting me . i 'm -- i 'm completely comfortable . this is where we belong . [ knocking on door ] [ knocking on door ] silas : someone 's knocking . nina : unh - unh . there 's nothing . maybe it 's just my heart pounding . [ pounding on door ] silas : i definitely hear someone knocking . [ pounding continues ] nina : it 's nothing . we 're the only two people in the world right now . [ scene_break ] ava : done and done . julian : you hope . ava : i 'm telling you , julian . it 's all taken care of . [ scene_break ] carly : i wo n't be long . i promise . franco : all right . i guess i 'll head back and see what bobbie and lucas are up to . maybe they want to watch `` shark tank . `` carly : oh , i 'm really sorry to miss that . franco : yeah , i bet you are . fellas . oh , you two have a strange sense of personal space . [ scene_break ] olivia : i really hope they find a heart for alice . you will all be in my prayers . ned : thank you . thanks for listening . it 's nice to be able to confide in somebody . olivia : oh , please . it 's the least i can do after you listened to me pour my heart out over stupid sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : what about jordan ? shawn : she was in mickey 's room . sonny : what is she doing there ? shawn : well , nothing good . you know , i ca n't quite figure it out , but for some reason , she is determined to sleep with the guy . there 's nothing i can do about it . [ scene_break ] mickey : [ sighs ] jordan : [ chuckles ] mickey : you 're still dressed ? jordan : well , i thought about taking off a couple of layers , but then i thought you might want to do that yourself . mickey : i might . jordan : you think ? mickey : yeah . i think that i wish we had gotten into business together a lot sooner . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] ava : what is it ? julian : it 's , um , from mickey diamond . [ scene_break ] jordan : why are you stopping ? mickey : i think we need to talk . about this .

[ scene_break ] dante : look , valerie , we , uh [ clears throat ] we ca n't do this . valerie : do what ? dante : uh , well , i 'm sorry . uh ... valerie : [ chuckles ] date : that 's my bad . i - i -- i was totally taking this the wrong way . valerie : no , i did n't come here because i could n't stay away from you . i came here because i wanted to give you a heads - up . dante : uh , heads - up about what ? valerie : that commissioner knows what happened between us . dante : yeah . yeah , i - i know that . we , uh -- we already had a little chat . valerie : oh . i 'm sorry . i did n't intend for that to happen . dante : no , uh , it 's fine . she 's our boss . uh , she 's gon na have her opinions about us fraternizing . valerie : yeah , i did n't think about that when i told her . i just needed someone to talk to . dante : right . valerie : things were up in the air , and i did n't know where we stood , and at the time , i thought lulu was with dillon , so i was still thinking maybe something might happen for us . [ scene_break ] jordan : the avery corinthos kidnapping -- that ceased to be a priority the day that she returned unharmed . nathan : so , you do n't care about catching the perp and taking this case off the books ? jordan : no , i 'm all for clearing a case , but chasing a dead lead is not the most efficient use of our time right now . nathan : well , this lead is very much alive . jordan : okay . let 's hear it . tell me about this new evidence . [ scene_break ] madeline : so , what happened with james ? ric : [ scoffs ] what , did n't your little boo - boo tell you all about it after he left here last night ? madeline : i could barely get a word out of him before that little girlfriend of his dragged him off . she 's trying to poison him against me . ric : [ scoffs ] i think that ball started rolling well before he even got involved with maxie . madeline : i beg your pardon . ric : look , whatever your son 's feelings for you are , his -- your words still miraculously carry quite a bit of weight . he would n't have shown up here looking for nina if you had n't primed him to do so . madeline : well , james loves his sister . it just took a mention of her being unwell , and he was off and running . so , what -- what happened ? what -- what did he do ? did he question her ? ric : did he ever ? only after he laid eyes on little avery 's baby blanket . [ scene_break ] jordan : and where did you find this baby blanket ? detective ? nathan : in my sister 's hotel room . [ scene_break ] nina : franco is so over me . ava : you could n't be more wrong . nina : well , from what i saw , uh , at the metro court , he 's completely into you . ava : a smart woman knows when she 's the object of genuine affection or merely a placeholder . mom and pops demuccio did n't raise no dunce . the fact is ... franco ca n't stop talking about you . nina : but you 're in a relationship with him . ava : the only relationship i 'm in is with the waiter , who keeps bringing me drinks while franco sits on the opposite side of the table , pining away over you . nina : [ clears throat ] ava : coffee ? the guy is head - over - heels in love with you . and let 's be real , okay ? you 're still in love with him , too . [ scene_break ] morgan : there 's nothing you have to say that i could possibly be interested in . franco : i 'll say it out here . i 'm pretty sure kiki and silas ' neighbors will be happy to hear about all your extracurricular ... morgan : hey , hey ! franco : ... activities ! morgan : what are you talking about ? franco : your activities . with denise . shall we ? [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] silas : [ sighs ] i ca n't do this . ca n't do this . i ca n't let nina suffer for what i did . [ door opens ] kiki : oh , hey . silas : hey . kiki : you on your way out ? silas : what happened to your vacation ? kiki : it 's still on . i just -- you left so early this morning , i did n't get a chance to say goodbye . silas : and you came all the way down here to say goodbye to me ? kiki : and to let you know that i left a few dinners in the fridge for you . just heat and eat . silas : you 're too good . i do n't deserve it . kiki : eh , well , it 's not gourmet . but it is better than just eating a power bar at your desk . do n't let it go to waste . silas : i wo n't . kiki : so , maybe you could , uh , have some people over while i 'm gone . there 's plenty to share . silas : people . kiki : yeah . silas : me . like who ? kiki : like , uh ... silas : exactly . kiki : like denise and morgan . that would be a great opportunity for the three most important people in my life to get to know each other better . silas : well , what 's to know ? [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] dillon : uh , dante kissed valerie ? lulu : for all he knew , i had just taken off to canada with you . those lies that i told came back to bite with a vengeance . dillon : [ sighs ] lies that i pressured you to tell . lulu : whoa , whoa . no . i refuse to let you take any responsibility . dillon : yeah , you wanted to tell dante . lulu : and my parents said that i could n't . so it was my call , just like it was my call to fly with you to vancouver . dillon : keep in mind that lucky 's life was at stake . lulu : but dante did n't know that . he thought that i betrayed him . he never would have kissed valerie otherwise . i -- i feel bad for putting him in a position to question my love , and dante feels far , far worse for acting on it . dillon : thus , the flowers . lulu : it 's part of his campaign to rectify the situation . he 's doing his best to put us back on solid ground , and i 'm doing my best to forget that he kissed my cousin . dillon : well , i wish i would have known that before . lulu : before what ? [ scene_break ] dante : i never meant to mislead you . i 'm sorry . valerie : no , you did n't mislead me . it was just one night resulting from a horrible misunderstanding . and we really do n't need to rehash it again . i 'm actually really happy that you and lulu are working things out . dante : uh ... valerie : and if it helps , i 'm moving on , too . [ scene_break ] dillon : before i asked valerie on a date . [ scene_break ] nathan : i stopped by nina 's hotel room just to see how she was doing , and i found a baby blanket , monogrammed with the initials `` ajq . `` jordan : and anything to directly tie it to the kidnapping ? nathan : see , i do n't know yet . i ca n't even tell if the blanket is actually avery 's . jordan : take it to michael quartermaine . see if he can id it , and then deliver it over to forensics for analysis . nathan : i ca n't . jordan : why not ? nathan : because nina 's husband refused to turn it over . [ scene_break ] madeline : how could you have been so careless ? james seeing that blanket is gon na lead him to all the wrong questions and all the wrong places . and if he realizes that it 's manufactured evidence , he may very well realize that nina is n't as compromised as she thinks she is . [ scene_break ] ava : you only got hitched to stick it to franco . and it worked . the guy , he 's tearing his hair out -- sit down -- as well he should for the way he behaved . not keeping the faith . but franco knows that questioning you about that little avery 's kidnapping , that was the biggest mistake of his life . nina : did -- did he tell you that ? ava : oh , nina . anybody with eyes in their heads can see that . but you proved your point . you really -- you got franco good . but now you know you 're not just torturing him . you 're torturing yourself . nina : no , i 'm not . i 'm not doing that . ava : [ scoffs ] what 's worse than a loveless marriage , huh ? depriving yourself of true love . and i ought to know . you know , 'cause i 've been there myself . nina : what -- where exactly ? ava : you make choices that keep you at arm 's length from the guy who really rings your bell . the guy who really knows you , really understands you . loves you . and there 's nothing you can do . you know , sometimes you just got to stay away . [ sighs ] nina : you -- but you said i should get back with franco . ava : oh , yeah ! no , no . [ laughs ] right , i 'm sorry . no . 'cause this is not one of those times . no . you are free to go and get him . franco believes in you so much . all of his doubts are just vanquished . and whatever got in the way before , the misgivings or the supposed lies and crimes , they 're out the window . as far as franco sees , there is no question of your innocence . nina : oh . well , maybe he should question my innocence . maybe he was right about me all along . [ scene_break ] franco : so , you and denise are having sex , i know that . you know that . denise 's elderly neighbor downstairs , white - knuckling it with the rosary beads , she knows it , too . morgan : you 've lost it . franco : you want to put it to the test ? morgan : kiki 's dad tell you something ? franco : oh , he sees it , too . well , 'cause he finally got the hair out of his eyes . but , no . it was n't silas . you want to guess again ? morgan : okay , i do n't know where you got this crap , and i do n't really care . i want you out of here . franco : so , i happened on the swath of destruction that you and denise cut through her apartment the other day , and she tried to explain to me that it was -- it was julian and alexis , but they were at the metro court . so , i - i started to wonder why , `` why , denise , would you lie to me like that ? what strange bedfellow are you trying to hide from me ? `` [ snaps fingers ] and then it hit me ... that it 's you . kiki 's not - so - devoted boyfriend . you and denise . you 're making a fool out of somebody that i care about . that is unacceptable . so , now i have this dilemma . what am i gon na do with you , morgan ? what am i gon na do with you if you ca n't keep your hands off of denise ? morgan : i do n't know , franco . what are the options ? franco : i was thinking about something very creative and very , very final . [ scene_break ] jordan : you have my blessing . go see a judge . nathan : but getting a warrant and taking that blanket may result in ... unanticipated consequences . jordan : unanticipated -- for whom ? your sister ? but you knew that already when you brought me this lead . why did you even bring it to me if you were reluctant to follow through ? nathan : despite the evidence , and i know how that looks , i do n't think that nina would have kidnapped the baby a second time . all right , i think it 's more likely that she 's being set up . [ scene_break ] madeline : you idiot ! do n't you know that if james wants that blanket , he 'll get a search warrant , and he 'll come and get it ? ric : hey , hey , hey , hey . not if it 's in ashes . madeline : you 'd tamper with evidence ? ric : [ gasps ] heavens no , madeline . i 'm an officer of the court . i know better than that . nina , on the other hand , she does n't . look , all i have to do is play dumb and let the police infer that she was trying to cover her tracks . and thanks to you and me , she does n't trust her memory too well . she could very easily volunteer a confession . madeline : so , now we 're framing nina for evidence tampering , too ? ric : that 's what gives you pause ? after everything you 've undertaken ? madeline : it all gives me pause . [ sighs ] but there 's no turning back now . [ scene_break ] ava : back up , sister . how could franco have been wrong about you ? you did n't take my precious niece . nina : how do you know that ? [ chuckles ] how do i know that ? ava : well , 'cause would n't you remember something like that ? nina : but what if i ca n't trust , um , my memory ? my husband would n't like me talking about this . i should go . ava : no , no , no , wait ! nina . you can trust me . we 're friends . nina : really ? are we ? ava : i mean , yes , you -- you terrorized my twin sister , and you kidnapped her baby , but , um , that was a long time ago . and i can see that you -- you 're past that . and you are no longer that screwed - up person anymore . and you did n't take my niece ... this time . nina : what makes you so sure ? [ scene_break ] silas : i can see this is important to you , so i will try to remain open to the possibility , okay ? kiki : wow , dad , your enthusiasm is just overwhelming . silas : okay . but just do n't get too hung up on the idea of denise and i being buddy - buddy anytime soon . kiki : why not ? you seem to have managed it with nina . and you two have an actual history of horror . silas : where did that come from ? kiki : what 's with the two of you spending the fourth of july together ? silas : listen , do n't misunderstand , all right ? nina and i have a history . that does n't mean we have a future . kiki : okay , but , here and now in the present , you two just spent a major holiday together . that 's what i 'm worried about . silas : i ran into her . she needed someone to talk to . it was the least i could do . kiki : yeah , well , your least is still above and beyond , considering what that woman 's put you through over the years . silas : sweetheart , i put her through plenty , too . [ scene_break ] nina : where do you get all this faith in me ? we hardly even know each other . this is the longest conversation we 've ever had . ava : you 're right . but i know franco . and he talks about you so much , i forget that we 're practically strangers . [ chuckles ] his belief in you is absolute , and that 's good enough for me . so , you tell whoever or whatever it is that 's telling you you 're guilty to go to hell . tune them out ! listen to your heart , not your head . nina : yeah , 'cause my head gets me in trouble . ava : then tell it to shut up , huh ? [ laughs ] put an end to that sham of a marriage and reward that heart of yours . nina : uh , this is a mess . this whole thing is like ... ava : that 's okay ! 'cause messes can be cleaned up . even this one . step one -- tell your husband that your marriage is over . and step two -- you go and find franco and tell him that you 're ready to try again . [ scene_break ] morgan : you think i 'm scared of you ? huh ? franco : that would be the intelligent response . hmm . then again , no one 's ever sponsored you for mensa , so at this point , i 'm not sure . morgan : you know what ? let me tell you something . the only reason you are alive is because my father allows you to be alive . so take one step near me -- franco : what are you gon na do ? you gon na tattle ? you gon na run , go tell daddy ? morgan : my dad has been looking for an excuse to pay you back for what you did to my mother and my brother , so if you think you got a shot , franco , take it , or back the hell off . [ scene_break ] dante : you got a date with dillon quartermaine . valerie : [ chuckles ] weird , right ? [ scene_break ] lulu : when did this happen ? dillon : last night . [ scene_break ] valerie : i ran into him at the floating rib , and we started talking . [ scene_break ] dillon : and suddenly , i 'm asking her out . [ scene_break ] valerie : dillon seems like a great guy . although , i realize you probably do n't agree after he ran off with lulu . [ scene_break ] dillon : i picked up on the tension between you and valerie , but i was clueless about the kiss . [ scene_break ] valerie : and now that the truth is out , i did n't think it 'd be a problem . [ scene_break ] lulu : i have to be fair to my cousin . the kiss is supposedly all on dante . he 's the one who initiated it . it was just this crazy moment where dante thought our marriage was over . i 've just got to let it go . dillon : it wo n't bother you if go on this date ? [ scene_break ] valerie : but i 've been wrong about you and your feelings before , so before dillon and do go out , i wanted to make sure . will it be a problem if we do ? dante : valerie , you do n't have to ask my permission to go out with dillon quartermaine . valerie : no , i was n't asking your permission . i was asking if it bothered you . our friendship is more important than me going on a date with a guy that i barely know . so , does it ... bother you ? [ scene_break ] dillon : the most important thing in this equation is making sure you and i are good . so , if me going out with valerie bugs you at all , say something , and it 's over before it starts . [ scene_break ] dante : i appreciate you asking , but , uh , who you date has nothing to do with our friendship . as for dillon , uh , he seems decent . does n't bother me at all if you want to go out with him . [ scene_break ] lulu : valerie and i have had our difficulties , but i want what 's best for her , and you 're the best . you should go on the date . i hope it works out . dillon : really ? lulu : yeah . you 'd be doing me a favor -- if valerie really has feelings for dante , then , you know , you 're the perfect distraction . dillon : mm . lulu : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] nina : i - i appreciate what you 're saying . i really do . it 's just not that simple . um ... it 's not as simple as just telling ric that i want a divorce . ava : why ? what 's the matter ? you catholic ? i 'm sure you -- you could get an annulment or something . nina : no , no , it 's -- it 's not -- not just that . um , not only is he my husband , he 's my lawyer . ava : well , what 's that got to do with anything ? nina : well , i have , um , a rather larger inheritance , and , um when i went to shadybrook , the court appointed a conservator to run my estate , and ric is trying to get the money back . ava : well , so , you get yourself another lawyer . nina : ric is a good man . he 's really so good . [ sighs ] he 's such a great guy , and -- in the last six months , he got his heart broken , and i just do n't want to do that to him again . ava : but what 's the alternative , huh ? sticking it out in a loveless marriage that you never really wanted to begin with ? saying goodbye to franco ? watching franco move on with somebody else ? mm . knowing that you will never really be with the man that you love ? nina : yeah , um ... [ sighs ] ava : ric is -- ric will get over it . look , if he could be publicly dumped one minute and then marry you the next , he 's , uh , what you call resilient . he 'll get over you , too . nina : [ laughs ] yeah ? ava : yes . absolutely . ric does n't want to get in the way of true love . not if he 's the man you say he is , not if he cares about you like you say he does . nina : 'cause he does say that a lot . he says he cares about me . ava : okay , so ... what are you waiting for ? ! nina : yeah ! what am i waiting for ? i 'm gon na do it . i 'm gon na say i love franco . oh , my gosh . i am gon na tell him i - i love him , and -- and he 's gon na be sad , and he 's gon na be hurt , but he 'll get over it . and then i 'm gon na go to franco , and everything is gon na be good . ava : yes , that 's a great idea ! nina : that 's great . ava : here , you have a doughnut hole , okay , 'cause you ca n't break up on an empty stomach . nina : i know ! thank you . ava : okay . nina : thank you so much . ava : oh , you 're welcome . nina : i really do n't deserve you . ava : everybody deserves love . nina : no , no , i mean i do n't deserve you . you know , 'cause i really wanted to just stab your sister 's eyes out . really . i like you better . ava : gee , thanks . [ chuckles ] nina : you 're welcome . and you know what , denise ? i hope you find love , too . [ chuckles ] [ door closes ] ava : way ahead of you . [ scene_break ] franco : that was good . morgan : yeah . franco : mm - hmm . i did n't know you had it in you . morgan : yeah , why do n't you try me ? you 'll find out there 's a lot more . franco : i would . but i 'm wearing my really good shoes . i can tell they 're my good shoes , because they 're the only pair that i own that do n't already have blood on them . morgan : so , that 's it , huh ? [ knife clangs ] morgan : that 's it ? you 're beating a retreat ? let me ask you something . when they took out that tumor , did they take out your spine , too , franco ? franco : you do right by kiki , or i will kill you . tumor or no tumor . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] kiki : you have denise 's number , right ? or i can text it to you , in case you change your mind about dinner . [ chuckles ] silas : you go have fun , all right ? you go have the time of your life . kiki : okay , dad . silas : hmm . kiki : you know , i think morgan might have it . you can get it from him . love you . silas : love you , too . he most definitely has that number . [ silas remembers ] nina : i 'm afraid i 'm losing my mind . silas : the only thing i know for sure -- you 've changed . nina : well , what if i have n't come far enough ? what if i 'm as sick as i ever was ? and -- and what if the crying that i 'm hearing , what if it means something else ? silas : like what ? nina : what if it means that i really did kidnap baby avery ? silas : i 'm sorry , ava . i ca n't do this anymore . it 's time for the truth to come out . [ scene_break ] dillon : so , i never told you why i 'm here . lulu : not simply for the pleasure of my company ? dillon : always , but i also have to ask you a favor . lulu : as long as it does n't involve lying to my husband or taking a trip , i 'm in . dillon : you may regret those words . this is the newest draft of my screenplay . incorporating your notes and with polished dialogue , i was hoping you could read it again . lulu : what if i have more notes ? dillon : i 'll be crushed and furious , and i 'll probably think about giving up filmmaking forever , 'cause that 's what happens every time i get notes , but then , i will calm down and think about what you said and probably agree with it . lulu : oh . dillon : the notes you gave me in vancouver made this draft so much better . lulu : okay , with a buildup like that , how can i refuse ? dillon : you ca n't . you already said you 'd do me the favor . lulu : oh , i did , did n't i ? dillon : teasing aside , i really appreciate this . lulu : teasing aside , i 'm happy to help . and i 'm flattered that you have so much respect for my opinion . dillon : and thank you for being so cool about me and valerie . if you ever need anybody to talk to about your dad or anything -- lulu : i 'll talk to dante . you 'll be too busy falling madly in love with valerie to bother . dillon : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] valerie : i 'm glad we talked about this . dante : yeah , me , too . we should be happy . valerie : thanks . and i 'm sorry again for spilling my guts to the commissioner . dante : no , do n't . stop . you do n't -- you do n't have to explain . valerie : no , she 's our boss , and i hope i did n't get you in any trouble . dante : no , you did n't , okay ? she -- she did n't say anything that was too much out of line . i complicated things with you and my work , and i need to uncomplicate them . valerie : well , i do n't think you need to worry . the commissioner seems to be pretty discreet . dante : yeah . yeah , i 'm sure she can keep what she knows to herself . [ footsteps approaching ] dillon : dante . dante : dillon . i got to go see my wife . thanks for the doughnut . valerie : yeah , you got it . bye . hey . dillon : fancy meeting you here . valerie : [ chuckles ] work . uh , some of the guys are patrolling down here , so i brought them sustenance . coffee and doughnuts . dillon : hmm . they 're lucky to have you . valerie : yeah . i am a crucial cog in the wheels of justice . [ both chuckle ] valerie : i 'm gon na head back to the station now . dillon : uh , i 'll , uh -- i 'll walk you to your car . maybe we can make a plan for that date . valerie : yeah , sounds good . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . dante : hey . lulu : i thought you were working . dante : yeah , i was . i just , uh , wanted to check on my flowers and say hello to my beautiful wife . lulu : hello . dante : hello . lulu : i 'm glad you stopped by . dante : yeah . ran into your , uh , buddy dillon on the dock . lulu : yeah , he was just here . dante : did he tell you that he and valerie are going on a date ? lulu : it 's good for them , right ? dante : yeah . i hope it works out for them . [ scene_break ] jordan : so , you think your sister 's being set up ? nathan : yes , in the kidnapping of avery corinthos , but i know she did n't do it . jordan : who 's framing her ? nathan : i 'm still working on that part . all right , but my money 's on her husband , ric lansing . jordan : ric lansing defended my son , so i tend to think well of him , but even if i did n't , you 're making serious allegations about an officer of the court . do you have proof to back it up ? nathan : not yet . look , but i 've had my qualms about this marriage since day one . even franco says that all ric 's after is nina 's money . jordan : franco ? you -- you believe franco ? nathan : i know how that sounds . trust me , i 'm not happy about being on the same side as that maniac , either , okay ? but i think that nina turned a corner at shadybrook , and i do n't think that she would have taken that baby again . all right , i think that the appearance of this -- this blanket is just part of a scheme to frame her and clear the way for ric to take control of her inheritance . jordan : then you need to get that baby blanket . maybe forensics will use it to either prove nina 's guilt or her innocence . [ scene_break ] ric : time to get rid of the evidence . [ door beeps ] nina : hi . what are you doing ? ric : hey ! there 's -- there 's my beautiful wife . come here . nina : oh , not anymore . i want a divorce . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone ringing ] franco : this had better be good . ava : how 's this ? i 've fulfilled my half of the bargain . franco : i do n't know what you 're talking about . ava : i mean i got nina back for you . expect a happy reunion in short order . franco : [ laughs ] ava , that is magnificent news . i could kiss you . ava : do n't use my real name . what if somebody hears you ? do n't you mess this up for me . franco : okay . denise , i could kiss you . chill out , will you ? ava : i gave you nina , and i can just as easily take her away again , and i will if you do n't come through for me . now you get that confession out of the hands of the police . i need that flash drive . franco : [ sighs ] working on it . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] ava : oh , franco . please get this done quickly so i can be done with denise . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] what can i do you for ? [ scene_break ] [ drawer rattles ] franco : [ sighs ] oh , okay . that 's beautiful . [ next_on ] morgan ( to ava ) : we need to talk . it 's important . ric ( to nina ) : you 'll never leave me . franco ( to silas ) : are you finally going to confess to framing nina ? sam ( to patrick ) : i 've been thinking about jake . michael ( to jason ) : have you considered the possibility that nikolas knows who you really are . laura ( to carly & sonny ) : it 's nice to see that some things do n't change .

[ scene_break ] nathan : maxie . hey , it 's , uh -- it 's me . after you left , claudette came by , and , um , we were able to clear some things up . i do n't think she wants me back . [ sighs ] actually , i think it 's possible that we may be wrong about claudette . just -- just call me before you do something that we both regret , okay ? [ scene_break ] claudette : rex , our awesome it guy , was looking into my e - mail history , and he found this cryptic e - mail that was supposed to vanish when it was opened . maxie : really ? nina : how does that figure into your graphics ? claudette : well , look . it was sent and opened when i was out of the office . it says `` sender unknown . `` nina : how can you trace it ? claudette : well , the software that rex installed -- one of the cool features is that it can trace formerly untraceable items . all you have to do is hit `` reply . `` nina : okay , let 's not wait . let 's hit `` reply . `` [ maxie 's computer beeps ] nina : maxie , you tried to sabotage the magazine . i do n't understand . why would you do that ? you , more than anyone , know how under the microscope we are . why would you do something like this ? maxie : because of her . [ scene_break ] lulu : it ca n't be a coincidence . meeting a woman who lives at that address ? helena wanted me to come here . ava : do you realize how crazy you sound ? helena had no idea that nikolas and i would end up here , or sam and jason , for that matter . this is n't all about you . [ trees rustling ] lulu : what was that ? dante : someone 's coming . [ scene_break ] kristina : it 's from a mentor of mine from wesleyan . do you mind if i ... ? aaron : yeah , no . go ahead . [ scene_break ] alexis : yes . parker is the professor that kristina propositioned . sonny : how long ? alexis : i do n't know . i -- maybe a few months . sonny : and you do n't think this was important enough information for her father to know ? alexis : i think it was important information for kristina to tell . not me . we were n't even sure how you were gon na react to her . you have this religious background . sonny : okay , we do n't want to go down there . how long were you gon na keep this huge information from me , her father ? we 're her parents . alexis : we are her parents . sonny : right . alexis : we both have very important roles . we both want what 's best for her . but that does not make us teammates . we have an obligation to kristina , not to each other . as you made clear to me when you said that i was dead to you . sonny : you were covering for a murder ! alexis : kristina is an adult . she told me something in confidence , and i felt that i needed to honor that . i mean , it 's not like you 're my husband . sonny : you told julian about this . you did n't tell me , her father ? alexis : i do n't want to talk about him , all right ? you know ? and i do n't even need this right now . i do n't need your outburst . sonny : outburst ? what do you mean , outburst ? alexis : yes , your outburst . you are angry because kristina did n't feel safe enough to tell you the truth about herself . [ scene_break ] nina : you tried to sabotage the magazine because of claudette ? maxie : it was n't sabotage . i do n't trust her , and you should n't , either . so i had to get rid of her . claudette : you wanted to get rid of me ? why ? nina : i 'd like to know the answer to that question , too . maxie : oh , come on , nina . you do n't trust her , either . you hired curtis ashford to dig into her background . claudette : uh , you did ? nina : no . maxie : you 're her brother 's ex - wife and you applied for a job here at this magazine under an assumed name . what did you think was gon na happen ? claudette : i explained that i -- maxie : that you were trying to cover your ass ? this whole thing is a set - up . you targeted crimson , you 're targeting me because i 'm gon na marry the man that you drove away ! nina : um ... i would like to apologize for ever doubting you , claudette , and i want you to know that ms. jones will be reprimanded for her actions . maxie : `` ms. jones `` ? claudette : please do n't . i should be thanking maxie . nina : you should ? maxie : you should ? claudette : yes . you know , you 've opened my eyes to something that i 've been too stubborn to see . there 's no place for me here .

[ scene_break ] alexis : you 're just upset that she 's hiding from you . sonny : of course , i 'm upset ! you can say what you want about me , what i do , my life , but i do the best i can to put my children first . alexis : okay . settle down . i 'm sorry that i implied otherwise . i 'm having a rough day , all right ? and apparently , so are you , so we 're taking it out on each other . so let 's not do that . i respect your role in kristina 's life . and i thought that you deserved to know . i just thought that it should come from her . sonny : instead of accidentally seeing parker and kristina saying goodbye to each other after a night at the metro court . [ sighs ] alexis : if it makes you feel any better , she was glad that she told you and she knows that you love her . sonny : well , it does make me feel good that kristina knows that i love her . but it does n't make me any happier knowing that she 's sleeping with an older woman who happens to be her professor . alexis : who happens to be newly divorced . honestly , i ca n't imagine what she was thinking . sonny : i do n't care what parker 's thinking . i care about our daughter . she 's vulnerable , and this woman -- i thought -- she 's taking advantage of her . alexis : i do n't disagree with you . i do n't . but i will tell you , your daughter does . sonny : i do n't like it . i 'm telling you right now , i do n't like it , and the longer it keeps going , kristina 's gon na get hurt -- bad . alexis : she 's at the kiosk . she 's working . why do n't you and i go down there and we 'll talk to her , calmly ... sonny : yeah . alexis : ... without confrontation ? sonny : as a team . alexis : as her mom and dad . [ scene_break ] kristina : [ sobbing ] aaron : hey . hey , kristina . what 's wrong ? kristina : it 's nothing . i 'm sorry . aaron : what 's the matter ? is it something in the letter ? kristina : no . i mean ... [ sighs ] yeah . it 's embarrassing . aaron : is it something about school ? i know you said that woman was from wesleyan . kristina : yeah . i asked my mentor if she thought i should go back to school [ sniffles ] in september after the suspension . and she said that there was n't a place for me there . aaron : hey . hey . it 's okay . everything 's gon na be okay . i promise , all right ? i 'm sorry that everything with school did n't work out . but selfishly , you know , i ca n't say that i 'm disappointed that you 're gon na be staying here in port charles with me . [ scene_break ] maxie : no place for you at the magazine , or in port charles ? claudette : do i think that we 're at each other 's throats ? of course . but i suspect that you and i have more in common than we have differences . you did like me before you found out that i was nathan 's ex . yeah , but you hid that from me . claudette : yeah . well , is there tension between us ? yes . and we 're not doing each other any favors by pretending that there is n't . fashion is your passion . not mine . and there are plenty of places for a graphic designer to go . nina : okay , what are you saying , claudette ? claudette : well , i got a job offer yesterday , and at first , i was n't gon na take it , but i think it 's really for the best . and now that rex has recovered , you know , the graphics , you should n't have any problem finding a replacement . nina : oh , um , wow . okay . well , is there anything i can say for you to reconsider ? claudette : no . but thank you . it 's been really great getting to know you after visiting you in the clinic with nathan . nina : oh . you came to visit me while i was in my coma . claudette : yes . yeah . well , you know , you were nathan 's family , and at the time , you were mine , too . nina : well , hey . it 's over . thank you for working with us . and listen , if you reconsider , we 're family here . you know ? always come by . love to have you . that 's right . yeah . our door is always open to you , claudette . you ... did the right thing . [ scene_break ] ava : daphne has been gone too long . we need to get out of here ! lulu : we can wait a little longer . ava : all right , good luck with that . i 'm going to that plane . sam : well , you can go to that plane by yourself . we 're staying . we 're waiting for kevin . ava : sam , you 're being ridiculous . you can bring me and lulu to the plane , and jason and dante can stay behind to carry kevin after he gets the drugs . it 's better if we split up , anyway . a group this big is more likely to be seen . [ trees rustling ] jason : take cover . hey . daphne : i 'm back . lulu : daphne ! jason : anybody with you ? you alone ? huh ? daphne : yes . yes . i brought the supplies . laura : did you find antibiotics ? daphne : yes . they were prescribed when i had surgery . jason : you good ? dante : yeah . jason : all right . daphne : they should help with the infection . laura : kevin , did you hear that ? you 've got to take these pills . can you hear us ? lulu : here . laura : great . okay . drink up . [ scene_break ] aaron : better ? kristina : a little . aaron : hey . earlier , you were gon na tell me something . what was that ? kristina : nothing . it seems so unimportant now . can you just hold me ? aaron : come here . for as long as you need . mr. corinthos , ms. davis . sonny : everything okay ? aaron : yeah . yeah , i think kristina just got some bad news . alexis : aaron , would you mind if we had a moment alone with our daughter ? aaron : yeah , of course . i 'll , uh , get back to work . alexis : what 's wrong ? kristina : it 's from parker . she left . sonny : back to wesleyan ? kristina : she left me . i thought we decided to give things a shot , and then she just bailed ? i mean , what did i do wrong ? why would she change her mind like that ? [ scene_break ] maxie : i thought you were totally furious at me . nina : oh , i was , and i am . why would you do something to undermine this magazine right now ? our publisher is being charged with murders -- plural . one full - on murder , and one , you know , attempted . now is not the time to screw anything up , maxie . let me tell you something . if you do anything to sabotage this magazine again , i will fire you in three seconds flat . do you get it ? maxie : totally . nina : good . now , i may not agree with your methods , but i completely agree with your motives . you were trying to protect your relationship with my brother . maxie : yeah . nina : hey , hey , hey . do n't be ashamed . you can own that . you have to fight for the people you love . you ca n't take anything for granted . and i saw claudette when you called her out . i saw it in her eyes . she 's still in love with my brother . she 's not ready to let him go . [ scene_break ] nathan : [ sighs ] claudette ? what -- what are you doing here ? claudette : i just came to say goodbye . [ scene_break ] daphne : i hope this will help hold the infection until you get him to a hospital . laura : yes . thank you . you thought of absolutely everything , even ouzo . kevin : well , might as well dull the pain while we can . ava : all right , then . so , what are we waiting for ? let 's get out of here ! jason : all right , sam , you take lead . dante and i , we 're gon na help kevin . let 's go , guys . [ clears throat ] all right , are you ready ? kevin : yeah . jason : 1 , 2 , 3 . kevin : [ groans ] jason : you good ? kevin : yeah . dante : watch that -- kevin : agh ! dante : watch out . laura : okay . okay . daphne , thank you for everything . i will not forget your kindness . thank you so much . dante : you all right ? kevin : yeah . dante : i got you . jason : 1 , 2 , 3 . kevin : [ groans ] jason : there you go . kevin : [ panting ] dante : you all right ? kevin : yeah . jason : so , uh , look . i 'm gon na need a co - pilot . dante : really ? jason : yeah . dante : well , i 'll let you know in advance , i 've never come anywhere close to flying a plane . sam : jason and i talked about it , and i really do n't have any experience -- jason : you guys , look . we do n't have a choice here . it 's an old model . the controls can be a little tricky . dante : i 'm in . jason : good man . sam : okay . dante : baby , you okay back here ? lulu : yeah , we 'll be fine . we 'll be fine . i love you . dante : i love you , too . i 'm not gon na let anything happen to you , okay ? lulu : okay . [ kiss ] dante : okay . sam : i 'm gon na sit up here just in case you guys need me for backup . jason : all right . i 'll tell you what . i 'll let you know when we 're ready to take off . laura : we 're gon na have you in a real hospital soon . kevin : you 're still my favorite doctor . [ scene_break ] alexis : i 'm sorry , sweetheart . i know how much this hurts . kristina : you both told me this would happen . sonny : but you know what ? i just want you to know that we got your back , okay ? and we always will . kristina : i think i finally get that now , about both of you . [ sighs ] i really blew it , did n't i ? here i had this great guy . solid . and -- and what do i do ? i reject him by going after someone who 's already pushed me away . that 's me , is n't it ? you know ? always going after the person who can hurt me the most . not only my professor , but my married , female professor . it does n't matter that she 's a female . alexis : there 's nothing wrong with having feelings for a woman , or women , for that matter . sonny : and i tell you what right now -- if you think that we 're gon na think anything less of you , let me just make one thing clear . you are our daughter . and we 're so extremely proud of you . okay ? kristina : okay . [ cries ] [ scene_break ] nina : if i were in your shoes , i would have done the exact same things to claudette . maxie : well , that 's troublesome . nina : oh , well , he 's a man , after all . their attention wanders . maxie : yeah , uh , i do n't -- i do n't think that nathan 's gon na actually cheat on -- nina : oh , first you think you 're in a relationship , a really good relationship , and he says he loves you . and then a nurse is turning down his checks for art camp and she 's giving him oogly eyes at work . maxie : okay , uh ... i do n't really think we 're talking about me anymore . but nathan and i love each other . okay ? i trust him completely . [ scene_break ] nathan : goodbye ? what are you talking about , goodbye ? claudette : maxie set me up at crimson . nathan : oh ... claudette : you do n't seem very surprised about that . nathan : she -- maxie may have mentioned something . i hope you do n't get into too much trouble at work . maxie , i 'm sure , will explain to nina -- claudette : she already did . nina was great about it , but it 's obvious that maxie and i ca n't work together . the magazine would suffer . and i know how much it means to your sister . [ sighs ] so i made the most logical decision . i 'm on the next flight out of port charles . nathan : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] dante : okay , what do you , uh , need me to do here ? jason : not much right now , not until we 're airborne . but once we are , i need you to keep your eye on these two gauges right there . got it ? dante : i got it . where we headed ? the nearest airport ? jason : no , actually we are gon na go north and west . that should keep us in greek airspace . and then we 'll hit mainland air , and by that time , traffic control should , uh , make contact . dante : let 's hope they do n't think we 're a hostile aircraft . the mediterranean is n't the most peaceful place in the world right now . jason : yeah , well , how about one crisis at a time , huh , buddy ? dante : okay . jason : let 's see if we can get this bad boy started . [ clears throat ] ready ? dante : ready . jason : away we go . all right . [ scene_break ] nathan : you 're leaving port charles ? claudette : i got a job offer in manhattan . and i booked my flight on the cab ride over here . i 'll send for my things later . nathan : after our lunch , i thought we 'd come to some kind of an understanding . let me talk to maxie . claudette : no . [ scoffs ] considering what we 've been through , you know , i was a fool to think that we could ever be civil . it 's too much to ask of us . i did love you once . nathan : yeah . i loved you , too , once . claudette : [ sighs ] at least this time , we can get closure . you know ? end things on better terms . [ scene_break ] nina : my brother would never betray you . but let 's be honest , claudette needed to go . we could n't trust her . maxie : yeah , but maybe that should n't matter if i trust nathan . nina : excuse me ? maxie : well , nathan does n't want anything to do with claudette . so who cares if she 's hung up on him ? this is between nathan and i and the fundamentals of our relationship . you know , we 're supposed to trust each other , and we ca n't blame outside obstacles if one of us does n't live up to our promises . nina : wait . that 's what you 're taking away from all of this ? maxie : yeah ! come on . you would n't actually act , like , you know , paranoid , and jealous , and ridiculous , and try and actually the sabotage the magazine just to make claudette look bad . you said that out loud so i would understand how crazy it sounds . nina : yeah . maxie : thank you . thank you , thank you , thank you . you 're best almost - sister- in - law in the whole world . i 'm gon na go and try and make everything right , okay ? nina : yep , that 's what i get for giving an employee a pat on the back instead of a kick in the ass . [ scene_break ] kristina : thank you , guys , for being so great about this . sonny : you know , aaron 's really concerned about you . kristina : i know . i have n't told him about parker yet . sonny : mm . kristina : he just thinks that i 'm upset because i 'm not going back to wesleyan . i 'm kind of dreading talking to him about it . it would have been nice to go out with someone who treated me right for a change . alexis : oh , honey . you were pretty adamant about being with parker . do you even have any feelings for aaron ? kristina : yeah . i think he 's great . i think that we could really have something if i could have just let parker go . alexis : happiness does n't come from another person or your peace of mind , right ? i mean , you 're not gon na find that in somebody else . just yourself . kristina : i think i see that . [ sighs ] i should probably have that talk with him . wish me luck . sonny : good luck , baby . i love you . alexis : i love you . kristina : love you guys . sonny : you were really good with her just now . alexis : yeah . so were you . sonny : thank you . you know , i guess we should count our blessings . i mean , i hate that our little girl 's heart 's broken , but i 'm not gon na shed any tears because parker left town . i do n't know why she decided to do the right thing , but i 'll tell you what -- [ whispering ] i 'm glad she did . alexis : about that . sonny : what ? alexis : yeah , i 'm pretty sure that i 've done something that 's gon na make kristina hate me all over again . aaron : looks like talking to your parents helped . is everything okay ? kristina : not really . there 's something that i need to tell you , after all . aaron : okay . kristina : i have n't been honest with you . and we do n't have a future together as friends or business partners or anything else until i ... i tell you the truth . so , uh ... [ sighs ] okay , here goes . last night , i slept with someone else . aaron : [ sighs ] wow . um ... that , uh , that hurts . a lot . but i guess we never really had the conversation about being exclusive , so i do n't even really know what to think , i guess . have you been seeing someone else ? kristina : no . it was my professor . aaron : the same professor who got you kicked out of school ? kristina : yes . we were talking , and one thing led to another . anyway , it 's over now . that 's what the letter was really about -- ending things . aaron : but the person who brought you the letter was a woman . kristina : yeah . she was . [ scene_break ] kevin : my god , you have beautiful eyes . laura : i think the ouzo 's kicking in now . kevin : i 'm serious . so bright . full of emotion . you know what ? i can always tell what you 're feeling but you always surprise me with what you 're thinking . laura : well , right now , i 'm thinking you should get some rest . kevin : you are a mystery , laura spencer . one i 'd love to solve . [ coughs ] thank you . laura : there 's no need to thank me . i 'm sure you 'd do the same for me if i were in your shoes . kevin : no . no , not this . it 's okay . the last few years of my life , i was sleepwalking . trying to save a marriage that was long over . i was burying myself in my work , letting my passions slip away . but you ... you brought me back , you woke me up . i just want to thank you for that . in case i do n't make it . laura : do n't say that . you 're gon na make it . i would n't have it any other way . do n't even think about that . kevin : yes , ma'am . [ scene_break ] lulu : 13 amiklon . ava : what 's that ? lulu : i just -- i still ca n't believe that daphne lives at the address helena gave me . ava : ugh , this again . you know , it 's not that big a coincidence that helena would mention an address on an island that she owned . sometimes a cigar is just a cigar , you know ? i do n't even know how you could be focused on that now that we 're free of that island . i thought we were all gon na die there . [ scene_break ] dante : they say the toughest part of flying is take - off and landing . so , uh , we 're doing okay . jason : yeah , so far , so good . sam : hey . any idea how long this is gon na take ? i 'm kind of worried about kevin back there . jason : i really have no idea . as long as it takes to get us home safe . dante : uh , jason . jason : yeah , i see it . sam : see what ? jason : we 're running out of fuel . dante : gauge is falling pretty fast , man . we 're running out of gas . jason : yes , i know . it must have been valentin 's plan all along . sam : what do you mean ? dante : he means that if we escaped , our plane just `` mysteriously `` crashed ? jason : okay , we need to put this plane down . dante : how are we gon na do that ? we 're in the middle of the sea . jason : i understand that . we need to find an island . otherwise , we 're gon na have to ditch in the water . ava : does it feel like we 're losing altitude ? lulu : we seem to be . ava : what the hell are they doing up there ? lulu : wait , where are you going ? stay in your seat ! ava : who appointed you air marshal ? lulu : i mean it , ava ! stay in your seat or -- ava : or what ? sam : bad news , everybody . we 're leaking fuel . we only have minutes left to fly . strap yourselves in and brace for an emergency landing . [ scene_break ] sonny : what 'd you do , alexis ? alexis : i just kind of nudged parker out of kristina 's life . sonny : nudged how ? alexis : i was mean , and i told her to leave . and i got her worried that the college and her ex - wife would think poorly of her for living with her former student , and i did n't tell her anything that she did n't know . sonny : so , what 's the big deal ? i would have done the same thing . but if kristina finds out you strong - armed parker ... alexis : well , i would n't put it exactly -- sonny : the point is , she 's gon na think she has a chance with her . right now , she 's crying and she 's heartbroken , but you know what ? she accepted that the relationship 's over . can we keep it that way ? alexis : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] aaron : so , this professor you 've been hung up on is a woman ? so , this whole time ... are you gay ? kristina : no . i mean , i do n't know . aaron : you 're not completely straight , right ? so , what am i , huh ? just a guy to show to your parents ? kristina : no , it was n't like that . aaron : did you even want to sleep with me ? was that just , like , a test to see if you could even do it ? kristina : no , of course not ! i would never ... aaron , i 'm truly attracted to you . i like you . and i think we were building to something real before i messed it up . can we at least be friends and see where that goes ? aaron : [ inhales sharply ] i just -- i , uh -- i need time to process all of this . kristina : what does that mean ? aaron : i just need some time , okay ? please . you know what ? can you please take over here for me for today ? kristina : sure . i 'll see you tomorrow . aaron : kristina , i do n't think that we should -- kristina : for work . aaron : right . kristina : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie . hey , it 's , uh -- it 's me . after you left , claudette came by , and we were able to clear some things up . i do n't think she wants me back . [ sighs ] actually , i think it 's possible that we may be wrong about claudette . just -- just call me before you do something that we both regret , okay ? claudette : [ sighs ] i do n't believe this . nathan : what is it ? claudette : the car that i called to take me to the airport just canceled . i 'm never gon na make my flight now . nathan : i could drive you . claudette : you do n't have to . no , i mean , i -- i do n't think maxie would like that very much . nathan : no , maxie will understand . besides , if this really is goodbye for good , then it 's the right thing to do . and like you said , leaving things on better terms . claudette : thank you , nathan . always a hero . [ cell phone rings ] maxie : hi , nathan . it 's me . uh , i just heard your message . a little late , obviously , but it 's okay . it all worked out for the best . um , i realized it does n't matter what claudette thinks or how she feels . we love each other , you know ? nothing 's gon na change that . [ scene_break ] jason : dante , your 1 : 00 , there 's a land mass . i 'm gon na get us there as close as possible . when i do , you get everybody off the plane . i 'm gon na stay here and try to turn off these engines . sam : jason , no . jason : dante . dante : yeah ? jason : you see that lever ? dante : yeah . jason : i need you to pull it . we need to lower the flaps . ready ? dante : okay , yeah . jason : go . kevin : laura , what 's going on ? laura : i ... think your book just got another chapter . lulu : when we 're down , we 're gon na unbuckle kevin , and we 're gon na carry him off the plane . if it 's a water landing , there should be a raft stowed behind the galley . ava : oh , it does n't matter . we 're gon na die . laura : no , we 're not ! we 're gon na make it . it 's gon na be okay . we 're gon na make it . jason : we 're coming in too fast . brace for impact . 3 , 2 , 1 !

's son -- we could 've made up for so many mistakes . monica : actually , i 'm quite surprised that carly agreed to let us have michael in the first place . alan : once again , michael was taken from us just like a.j . , just like jason . monica : oh , i am so tired of you talking about jason like he is dead . alan : he might as well be , monica . monica : oh . alan : the person that woke up from that coma is not my son . monica : jason suffered brain damage , it changed his life . it was n't his fault . alan : no , it never is . it 's always a.j . 's fault . he was drunk ; he was driving the car , something which you reminded him of every single day of his life . i do n't understand you , monica . how could you forgive jason so easily when he became one of sonny 's hit men and you could never forgive a.j . ? do n't you think he felt that you did n't love him in the same way that you loved jason ? or maybe you did n't think about him at all . monica : my love for a.j . was never in question . but unlike you , i never supported the choices he made or the man he was becoming . alan : you have no idea , monica -- the pain that he went through -- monica : oh . alan : the guilt that warped his life . he could never shake off the accident . he blamed himself every single day . he needed your forgiveness . you turned your back on him . monica : you are sounding so much like a broken record , alan . i have heard -- skye : come on , you guys . please stop fighting . i know dredging up a.j . 's murder again is upsetting but do n't lash out at each other . monica : well , i 've had enough . actually , i 've had more than enough . alan : you should get down on your knees and thank god that you were not raised in this house , that you did n't go through the hell that a.j . went . skye : come on , alan . you ca n't blame monica for the way a.j . turned out . at some point , responsibility reverts . alan : i do blame her . i blame everybody , including myself most of all . a.j . never had the unconditional love and support in this family . maybe if he had , he would n't have gone down the road where he met up with the person who eventually killed him -- a doctor . of course -- it had to be a doctor . [ scene_break ] michael : i remember that blond lady , dr. adair ? she 's the one who killed a.j . carly : ok . i never mentioned rachel 's name to michael and i never said anything about what happened to her . michael : i saw the whole thing . dr. adair said a.j . was evil and she did n't want him to hurt anybody else . reese : and you just remembered this all of a sudden ? did -- did jodie help you ? carly : i do n't think we need to be talking about jodie right now . michael : jodie is n't real . i do n't see her anymore . reese : since when , michael ? sonny : reese , reese , reese -- you 're not investigating a crime , so -- michael : since my session with dr. thomas today . sonny : the only thing that matters right now is that you did not kill a.j . you only thought you did because you were confused ; you were upset . carly : and you 're right about dr. adair . she admitted to everything in a letter . [ scene_break ] courtney : ok . the meeting 's on for monday and we are so out of here . nikolas : yeah . hi . wow -- looks like you got caught in the rain , too . [ scene_break ] michael : give me my -- come on . i 'll tickle you . ric : well , does n't this look festive . sonny : ric . ric : i 'm sorry . i was under the impression that i was invited . carly : you were . you were -- by me . sonny : you must be in a fantastic mood . carly : well , whether i like it or not , ric 's your brother . that makes him family . and after the way he handled my father today , listen , inviting him over here was the least i could do . sonny : all right . well , i appreciate what you did . ric : that 's not a problem . i enjoy sticking a pin in durant 's massive ego . sonny : well , it 's more than that . i think all durant wants to do now is take michael away from me . and you used your position to stop him from doing that , so -- you know what , ric ? sometimes -- i do n't know . you 're getting to the point where you 're starting to feel like a -- like a real brother , you know ? michael : hey , dad ? come here . sonny : yes ? [ scene_break ] reese : ahem . ric : what 's up ? reese : i 'm not convinced that rachel killed a.j . , and i know sonny and carly do n't want to hear this right now . they just want this whole thing to be over . ric : yeah , do n't we all ? reese : of course . i -- ric : what , you just ca n't let it go ? well , that 's the story of my life , too . reese : i spoke to rachel the night before she was murdered . she told me she saw dr. thomas coming out of a.j . 's room at the exact moment that he was killed , so of course i go over there , i question him . he knows . i 'm thinking maybe dr. thomas killed rachel to keep her from busting him . ric : so how do you explain rachel adair admitting that she killed a.j . ? huh ? reese : timing is very convenient . ric : yeah , come on , come on . reese , reese , look -- rachel 's dead , a.j . 's dead , michael is home . it 's over , ok ? let it be over . [ scene_break ] sam : yeah , can i speak to dr. thomas ' assistant nella , please ? oh . could you have her call me ? it 's sam mccall . no , no , i -- i do n't need to speak to dr. thomas . can you just have her call me as soon as she gets this message ? ok . jason : sam . sam : is michael ok ? jason : yeah , he 's fine . sam : does n't sound like it . jason : michael thinks he 's fine . sonny and carly want to believe it . sam : you do n't ? jason : michael says he remembers seeing rachel adair kill a.j . sam : what ? just like that after all these months ? jason : i mean , it 's a lie , right ? it 's got to be -- sam : oh . jason : and the only one who could convince michael is dr. -- sam : is dr. thomas , and the only way he would do that is if he killed a.j . and killed and framed rachel . jason : i do n't know . maybe it does n't even matter , sam . sam : what , jason ? jason : a.j . deserved to die for what he did to michael , and rachel adair tried to frame courtney and blackmail her . sam : and , what , she deserved to die just like that ? dr. thomas is allowed to walk away ? jason : i do n't give a damn about dr. thomas or rachel adair ! the only one i care about in all this is michael . i mean , you should 've seen him at sonny 's . he was happy . he has n't smiled that way since before the kidnappings . i mean , this kid has been through hell and he thinks it 's finally over . and what am i supposed to do -- just start it all again ? for what ? sam : to protect him , jason . jason : there 's other ways to protect him . dr. thomas could disappear ; he could have a traffic accident . sam : and -- and the truth is supposed to stay locked up inside of michael ? is that what you want ? [ scene_break ] jax : courtney locked herself out on the roof . what 's your excuse ? nikolas : nothing quite that dramatic . i just forgot my umbrella . [ scene_break ] monica : whew . [ noise ] [ noise ] [ noise ] [ scene_break ] sonny : let me tell you something about your mom . did you know that when you and morgan were missing , she never gave up hope ? she always , always , always believed that you guys would be found and be home safe . and i want you to know something , buddy -- do n't forget how great your mama is . ok ? [ morgan babbles ] carly : now , was i right or was i right ? look around , there 's not a bad thing in sight . sonny : no ? lorenzo : what 's so funny ? sonny : uh -- just the timing of . michael : perfect . lorenzo : you ready to go now ? carly : i want to stay here tonight . [ scene_break ] sam : i am trying to reach dr. thomas ' assistant , jason . it is a long shot , but if a.j . called dr. thomas the night he died , then maybe she picked up the message . jason : yeah , that 's good . it 's worth a try . sam : are you ok ? jason : yeah , i just -- i just want to run through , you know , everything , how it happened , make sure we 're not missing anything , ok ? 10 years ago , a.j . drives into a tree , i 'm brain - damaged , lying in a hospital bed comatose . dr. thomas is called in to treat me . now , it 's -- it 's possible that a.j . had contact with dr. thomas then , but we ca n't be sure , ok ? last april , a.j . 's in the hospital with a broken back , he 's facing kidnapping charges , he 's going to try and plead insanity , he needs a psychiatrist to back him up . sam : so he calls dr. thomas . jason : but we do n't have any proof that a.j . actually spoke to dr. thomas . sam : ok , jason , let 's just say that he did , ok ? a.j . wanted his insanity plea , dr. thomas refused to give it to him . a.j . blackmailed him . jason : with what ? sam : with -- with whatever happened with your accident 10 years ago . jason : sam , that 's just -- that 's a huge assumption . sam : ok . let 's just say that it 's true , jason . everything else fits . dr. thomas killed a.j . to shut him up . michael witnessed it . jason : ok , the only problem is michael remembers being in a.j . 's room , he remembers seeing carly . why is dr. thomas the only piece that 's missing ? sam : because michael probably feels guilty for seeing and witnessing his biological father being murdered . it 's not his fault . i -- jason : no , none of this is michael 's fault . i mean , this kid has spent his whole life paying for other people 's mistakes including mine . [ jason sighs ] sam : where did that come from , jason ? you have done nothing but love and protect michael . jason : i told the first lie of michael 's life . i said michael was my son . he loved me . you know , he did n't know not to . we had spent one year together and i was gone . he did n't understand why . he just thought i 'd disappeared . i 'm tired of failing michael , ok ? i promised him that this would be over . it has to be over , sam . no more lies . no more confusion . i got to find out what happened the night a.j . died so i can tell michael and he can let it go instead of carrying it for the rest of his life until it finally destroys him like the accident destroyed a.j . ! [ scene_break ] nurse : the patient 's brother , a.j . quartermaine , is on the phone . he says it 's important and he 'll only speak with you . dr. thomas : ok . ahem . sam : hey , hey , hey . what just happened ? jason : i -- i remembered something . maybe there 's a connection with a.j . and dr. thomas . dr. thomas ' voice : dr. adair said a.j . was evil and she was n't going to let him hurt anyone else . then she took the pillow and smothered a.j . until he was dead . do you understand , michael ? when i count to three , you 're going to wake up and remember dr. adair killed a.j . , not me . [ scene_break ] dr. thomas : you know , i 'm really flattered , but if you ca n't stay away from my office -- which i 'd prefer -- the least you could do is knock before you enter . reese : i 'm retracing the final hours of rachel adair 's life . when did you last see her ? dr. thomas : i barely knew the woman . reese : you know she 's dead . dr. thomas : yes , and it 's tragic . reese : hmm . and convenient , too , given the fact that rachel told me she saw you coming out of a.j . 's room the night he was killed and i came and questioned you about it . [ next_on ] nikolas : you knew i was on the roof with courtney -- why did n't you bust us for lying ? lorenzo : you want to stay here tonight ? carly : i just wanted us to be together as a family . jason : if there is a connection , how far do you think he 'll go to protect that secret ? reese : it 's almost as if somebody planned it that way .

patrick : fascinating , is n't it ? robin : what ? patrick : all these people setting up for the show by running around , fixing lights , sound , tuning guitars , all for one guy . no wonder his ego has no boundaries . robin : i do n't know whether to say `` look who 's talking `` or `` it takes one to know one . `` patrick : it also explains why my father fell for his world so instantly and completely that he fell off the wagon . robin : heh . patrick : hey . robin : hmm . patrick : my father disappoints me on a regular basis . he 's not going to do that to you . he said he 's going to get your mom here and he will . robin : i hope so . my mom needs to get a little bit of revenge . [ scene_break ] lulu : i can understand why you 're so angry to have your father taken away like that . it must have been abso -- sal : you mean murdered ? any day that zacchara 's in was a bad day . lourdes : at least old man zacchara eventually went down for something . sal : he did n't get what he deserved . zacchara did n't even end up in prison . they threw him into some cushy nut house and even that did n't stick . the guy comes out , `` oh , feel sorry for me . i 'm mentally ill . `` his fancy lawyer just gets him released . some day , zacchara 's gon na pay . [ scene_break ] sam : thank you very much for meeting with me . karpov : i was intrigued by the application . one does n't often run into women with salvage experience , especially such an attractive one at that . sam : are n't you sweet ? well , you know , being on the ship makes me realize how much i 've missed it . i do n't think anything can compare . karpov : well , perhaps you 've keen keeping the wrong company . sam : perhaps . karpov : i assume you can captain . sam : ah , in my sleep . karpov : i took the liberty of having my people speak to the harbor master . he recommended you as not only competent , but discreet . nothing is more critical to me than discretion . sam : i -- i completely understand that . as long as i get paid in cash every week , i could n't care less what your cargo holds . [ scene_break ] jason : whatever miracles ric is promising you on johnny 's behalf , he 's lying . ric : oh , you 're so sure of yourself , are n't you ? you sit in judgment of the whole world , smug in your own superiority , living that inviolate code of loyalty -- jason : you know nothing about loyalty . ric : really ? jason : yeah . ric : neither does sonny , apparently . so he 's working with andrei karpov ? i can only imagine how happy andrei karpov must 've been to have locked into a partnership with sonny , who clearly is showing that he wants to get back to his old mob king ways . that 's the shortest retirement in history , is n't it ? what was it this time for sonny , two months ? you can see now how clearly it was a good idea to dump the organization on you because that freed sonny the ability to trade up . you 're looking at a formidable pair of adversaries . jason : you might as well just stop because i do n't believe a word that comes out of your lying mouth . [ scene_break ] carly : hey , honey . how was your meeting ? jax : i thought i covered my tracks pretty well . i guess i forgot how resourceful you can be . carly : i do n't mind you forgetting . it keeps the element of surprise alive . jax : how 'd you find me ? carly : give me a cell phone , five minutes , and motivation and i can find anybody . jax : no , really , how did you find me ? carly : i know my husband . i figured it out . i know you would n't stay at the belle maison because you would figure that 's the first place i 'd look . and you like being close to your hotels , just like when you lived next to the metro court . you like to walk through anonymously and watch people work . this place fit the bill . you can even see the belle maison from across the street . [ jax chuckles ] jax : yes , very impressive . carly : thanks for noticing . jax : oh , excellent choice . carly : i thought you 'd approve . jax : you seem pretty sure of yourself , do n't you ? carly : no , just sure of us . jax : so how did you get in ? did you pick the lock or bribe a housekeeper ? carly : i did n't have to run a scam . i told them who i was . we may be separated , but i 'm still mrs. jacks and that 's a title i plan on keeping for the rest of my life . [ scene_break ] robin : mom should be here by now . maybe noah was n't able to convince her after all . she can be very , very stubborn . patrick : sounds like somebody else i know . robin : i do n't know what you 're talking about . patrick : robin , at the risk of sounding obnoxious and hovering , i 'm going to say it anyway . stress is not good for you and the baby . frankly , considering all the reasons you should be worried about your mother , like rebel uprisings and kung fu battles over nuclear codes , showing up to an eli love concert is not a big deal . robin : listen , eli was a jerk . he cast her aside because she 's about to be a grandmother , which is something she was already struggling with . patrick : yes , what eli did was very insensitive , but i do n't think he meant to hurt her . robin : well , he did and she needs to be here to get over it . patrick : for herself or so you can implement this crazy plan of yours ? eli : hey , hey , look who 's here . patrick : hey , yeah , thanks for the tickets . eli : you 're very welcome , mate . like i said , no hard feelings , but you did try to damage the merchandise . i mean , in this business , you know , faces matter . so i gave you the backstage passes on the condition that you would bring anna . is she here ? robin : i was under the impression that you wanted nothing to do with her because she 's about to be a granny . so why would you care if she 's here or not ? anna : i 'd love to know the answer to that myself . [ scene_break ] jason : karpov might have been in manhattan . sonny might be there at the same time . it does n't mean they 're conducting business . ric : come on , jason , you 're running a crime network . you ca n't afford to be this naive . organizations are always looking to expand their network . karpov has been in port charles for the last two weeks . he set up shop at the curtain restaurant . he 's been taking meetings . sonny 's had two of those meetings with him . on the second one , he handed over his pocket congressman on karpov 's behalf . now , look , i -- i understand that you would 've known about all this activity if you had n't been tied up with the whole johnny - lulu melodrama . but i am telling you the truth here . whatever sonny 's intentions were when he originally handed over the mob to you , they changed when you were n't looking . sonny wants back in . and instead of giving you the respect of asking if he could have the business back , which he so impulsively gave over , sonny got in bed with the enemy . jason : you should be careful who you let in your house . claudia : you just made a really big mistake . [ scene_break ] lulu : um , so what happened to your father 's diner ? did you take it over ? sal : no . to continue this cycle ? protecting the same thugs that killed my dad ? you know what ? i make my living other ways . me and my buds do , you know , guys that i grew with that i know have my back . lulu : well , sometimes friends make all the difference . sal : yeah . lourdes : hey , those guys are n't sal 's friends . friends do n't bring you down or force you to take chances that will land you in jail or even worse . sal : i would n't look down my nose if i were you , lourdes . it 's because of those guys that you do n't go hungry . it 's because of those guys you get to buy your trendy clothes and school supplies , not to mention piano . and maybe you 're right . everything would 've been different if those animals had not killed papa ! i 'm sorry . you guys do n't need to be hearing this . lourdes : poor joe looks shell - shocked , like the thought of real gangsters killing real people never occurred to him . is chicago mob - free now , joe ? [ scene_break ] jax : carly , i really , really appreciate the effort , you know , expensive candles , rare wine , but it 's a wasted effort . carly : i would n't say that . jax : nothing has changed , okay ? we 're still separated and i 'm not sure if i can continue in our marriage . carly : wow , that was n't the vibe i was getting on the airplane . jax : look , i 'm still attracted to you , but that does n't make our problems magically disappear . carly : you 're not just attracted to me , you 're in love with me . our separation has n't changed that . the only way you could get distance from me was to jump out of the stupid airplane . jax : i was late for a meeting . carly : no , you felt your defenses coming down , just like they are now . admit it . [ knock at door ] carly : guess who that is . jax : why ? who do you think it is ? carly : it 's room service . i ordered strawberries and whipped cream . yes , i pulled out all the stops . giselle : hello . jax , i 'm so pleased we agreed to do this . [ scene_break ] claudia : the way that you just handled jason is a perfect example of why i do n't trust you . ric : care to elaborate ? claudia : you did n't have to tell jason anything about sonny working with karpov . you did it out of spite . and all you managed to do was take an already volatile situation and make it worse . even my -- my freak - show of a father would slam you for making such a stupid move . ric : i think you 're missing the bigger picture here , claudia . if jason were inspired to launch a preemptive strike against the karpov organization , then they would take him out , which would save the zaccharas the trouble . more so , if there were a karpov - morgan mob war , then that would funnel funds away from the manhunt for johnny , which would save his life . so as i can see it , you should be thanking me , twice -- claudia : you know what ? you know what ? rationalize it all you want , ric . the only reason you told jason that sonny was working with karpov was to hurt him , was to throw it in his face that sonny 's not loyal to him anymore . ric : come on . claudia : you know what ? you know what that tells me ? it tells me that you have brother issues that you ca n't get past and that you 're volatile . you 're dangerous . and i 'll tell you , i do n't want anything to with you . [ scene_break ] spinelli : stone cold , the jackal has been awaiting your triumphant return . do- do - do ! the brusque lady of justice phoned with news of your impending release . and i planned a small , but -- jason : okay , okay , that 's fine . thank you . i need you to focus right now . i need you to get on the computer because i need your help right away . spinelli : jackal senses a dire situation ? jason : i hope not , but i need you to prove it for me . ric just told me that sonny 's working with a european boss named andrei karpov . spinelli : well , that -- that does n't ring true . why would mr. sir endanger his family all over again by detouring back into the underworld ? surely , darth lansing , who 's been known to lie as easily as breathe , was just trying to rattle you . jason : well -- well , it 's possible , but i want to know for sure , so get on it . get on it right now . let 's go . find out everything you can on andrei karpov at his last known location . and i want you to find out if there 's a link between sonny and him . spinelli : and if there is ? jason : it would n't be good . [ scene_break ] carly : well , jax was n't expecting me when he made whatever plans with you . jax : yes , carly 's right . i was n't expecting her , so i did n't get a chance to tell her yet that i bumped into you and decided to take the opportunity to get some `` crimson `` business done while i 'm here in montreal . giselle : i 'm hearing two different things . are we having this meeting or not ? jax : yes -- carly : not . giselle : forgive me for being not subtle , but a word to the wise -- possessive wives are so passé . `` secure `` and `` independent `` are the buzz words this season . jax : yes , well , on that note , giselle and i better get to business before it gets too late . now , if you rush to the airport , you 'll probably make it home in time to tuck morgan in . so , safe trip . [ scene_break ] eli : look , anna , i am so glad that you decided to grace me with your presence . anna : mm , yeah , i almost did n't because you 're an ass . and quite frankly , i have better things to do . but a good friend reminded me that i do n't actually have to like you to listen to your music . eli : you 're still mad at my little faux pas . anna : faux pas ? do you even know what that means ? you dismissed me as being too old for a perennial adolescent such as yourself . eli : i apologize , okay , from my heart . the thing is , anna , i am crazy about you , all right ? and if you doubt that , then consider the fact that i got my jaw pounded on , not once , but twice , in your honor . i still want you backstage . anna : well , that 's saying something , is n't it ? eli : look , i -- what i said was really , really rude and disrespectful . i do n't know , i just -- you know , spur -- spur of the moment thing . i do n't know why . i do n't know . i got caught up in it . i want a second chance with you . anna : i do n't know why i should . i mean , really . fool me once and all that . [ anna sighs ] anna : but i guess you 're allowed one egregious mistake . besides , i hear your new single 's pretty cool . eli : oh , i 'm so excited for you to hear it . chip : five minutes , eli . eli : all right , five minutes . chip : here we go . eli : here we go . my favorite part , just five minutes before we go on . do you feel excitement ? [ scene_break ] robin : do you see him ? patrick : yeah , he 's right there . robin : oh , hey , thank god . i did n't think security would let you through . max : oh , well , when i realized they were doing a body search , i went back to the car to stow the special equipment you requested , assuming we 're still a go ? robin : yeah , yeah , why would n't we be ? max : well , i -- i just thought you might 've reconsidered . i mean , as far as plans go , this one is pretty drastic , carly - worthy even . patrick : max , i think you should be the one to reconsider . you know you 're taking orders from a pregnant hormonal mother - to - be ? robin : shh . sonny told you to do whatever i want , right ? max : he did . robin : okay , then all you have to do is kidnap eli love at gunpoint and we 're good . [ scene_break ] ric : you know , i really wish you would n't have this knee - jerk reaction , claudia . you could do a lot worse than having me on your side . to be perfectly honest , boy , you need me . claudia : i need you ? ric : yes , you tend to lose focus , dear . claudia : oh , i 'm so -- you 're accusing me of being unfocused when you do n't know whether or not you want to destroy sonny or be his best friend ? ric : oh -- claudia : about the only thing you 're clear on , ric , is jason . ric : mm - hmm . claudia : you hate jason -- ric : yup . claudia : because he 's closer to sonny than you will ever be and there is nothing you would rather than to drive a permanent wedge between the two of them . that is the only reason that you told jason about sonny 's deal with karpov . and that tells me that you 're incapable of rational strategy when your brother is involved . ric : you know what i 'm hearing ? claudia : hmm - mm . ric : i think it 's the same thing that your father would be hearing right now and that is sympathy for the enemy , for sonny , for your bedmate , for -- claudia : ah -- ric : or for jason . claudia : i slept with him once . ric : i do n't know . well , whatever that -- claudia : once . ric : relationship is that you have with him , but obviously it 's personal . otherwise , why would you care if jason knew what sonny 's deal with karpov was ? claudia : i do n't know . maybe i do n't want to wake up one morning and find out that a mob war broke out in the middle of the night . ric : okay , once again i ask , why do you care ? should n't your main focus be johnny 's survival ? see ? it 's a clear indication of how your focus is split . look , claudia , i can help you with johnny , and i am more than willing to do so in exchange for a few considerations . so i 'm going to put the offer out one more time . deal or no deal ? claudia : bring johnny home safe and get him acquitted , you can have whatever you want from me . [ scene_break ] johnny : i guess it 's safe to say i 've been unaware of the reality of certain things . lulu : joe 's all about music . real world stuff does n't even penetrate . he would n't be aware of what mobsters are doing in chicago or anywhere else . sal : yeah , well , you know , you should consider yourself lucky because the zaccharas are a sorry fact of life around here . they extort you for protection . they run the loan sharks . they flood the streets with drugs . johnny : i can only imagine the pain that you guys have been put through . lourdes : you want to know something creepy - weird ? professor siegel used to teach one of them . this kid ? a zacchara .

[ scene_break ] claudia : when i confronted sonny about his meeting with karpov , he not only defended his actions , he stressed that his association with karpov would not hurt you in any way . jason : you did n't -- you did n't tell me all this when i was in lock - up and you were desperate for my help . you did n't step up and say ric was right when he laid the story on me . why are you doing it right now ? claudia : i considered warning you before , okay ? but sonny practically blackmailed me into keeping my mouth shut . and to be honest with you , i took him at his word . but for what it 's worth , i think he was being completely honest and telling the truth when he said he did n't mean you any harm . jason : none of this concerns you , so i suggest you make a smart choice and you stay out of it . claudia : fine , i just thought you deserved to know . you know , um , do you remember when spinelli was rambling ? he was delirious with fever and he was going on about the weird dynamic between you and sonny ? he spoke a lot of truth . sonny 's going to back you into a corner , whether he 's conscious of it or not . and , jason , you 're going to have to make a choice here . you 're going to have to be sonny 's friend , or you 're going to have to react like a bona fide mob boss . step up , do whatever it takes no matter what the cost . good luck with that one . [ scene_break ] johnny : i 'm not stupid . i 've always known that my family profits from other peoples ' pain . that the power and the money , it comes at the expense of real human begs . but i 've just seen it from afar . i 've never had to stare at it like that , right in the face . lulu : you 're not responsible for what your father or trevor have done . johnny : okay , but i never lifted a finger to change anything . i was too busy jockeying for position . [ johnny sighs ] johnny : all right , that 's it . when this is over -- lulu : no , but we do n't know if this will ever be over or if we 'll ever be able to go back home because of what i did . johnny : no regrets , lulu . hey , sal was right . what he said , it just proves that the way i was living my life before was wrong . but we 're going to change that , together . i love you . logan 's voice : you 'll never get over me .

[ scene_break ] jason : sam thinks kristina could be the one that caused the accident . spinelli : is n't mr. sir 's only daughter a little too young to drive ? jason : yeah , but she sneaks out all the time and takes the nanny 's car . spinelli : well , what makes you think she was behind the wheel that night ? jason : carly saw something . um , she remembers seeing the car that forced claudia off the road , and she said it was n't michael 's . but she remembers seeing a light or a , uh , white - colored compact car , possibly a hybrid , and alexis owns two of them . spinelli : okay , but with greatest deference to the valiant valkyrie , do n't you think her mind may well have unconsciously twisted the heart - rending memory ? jason : i think carly 's telling the truth . spinelli : so you wish to exonerate michael by proving kristina 's guilt ? jason : no , if we could prove that michael was nowhere near claudia 's accident scene , we could exonerate him without bringing kristina into this . [ scene_break ] sam : yeah , i mean , of course jason and i are looking into claudia 's accident . he wants to prove that michael 's innocent . alexis : at your sister 's expense ? sam : are you kidding me ? there is no way in hell i would ever frame my sister for jason or for anyone else . alexis : she did n't do it . sam : she was driving . alexis : she does n't have a license . she 's an intelligent , responsible girl . she knows better than that . sam : everybody makes mistakes , even kristina . gosh , she has to live up to your impossibly high standards . alexis : stop saying that . sam : i do n't know how she does that . alexis : she sets her own standards . sam : she was clearly hurt and confused , and she 's harboring a lot of guilt right now , and the sooner we can find an answer , the sooner we 'll have a solution here . alexis : i want you to leave . molly : hey . where 's kristina ? she said she 'd help me collect rock specimens for science camp this morning . alexis : is n't kristina in her room ? molly : no . and her bed 's all made like she did n't sleep in it .

[ scene_break ] edward : i 'm admitting nothing . but if i was successful in manipulating her away from you , i did it with a clear conscience . nikolas : wow . did you just imply that you actually have a conscience ? edward : more than you do , young man . the cassadine family tree is littered with kidnappers and murderers and psychotics . you know , you brought nothing but misery to emily , and i 'll be damned if i 'll let you do the same thing to rebecca .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i know it was probably rough , but you did a great thing protecting your sister . michael : yeah , i could handle mr. bauer . jason taught me how to fight in prison . sonny : okay , that 's great that he taught you how to fight , but , you know , now that you 're out , you got ta be a lot more careful fighting . warren bauer is one thing , but getting in a fight on the road crew , you ca n't be doing that . do you understand me ? because your parole officer could think now you 're being reckless and violent . and you know what ? it could jeopardize your freedom .

[ scene_break ] johnny : you 're comparing me to warren bauer . a psychopath ? olivia : well , you know what ? warren bauer did n't start out psychotic . he was a father who wanted revenge for his dead son . and he went further and further until he lost all his perspective . johnny : the guy took a gun and shot up an entire hospital full of innocent people . olivia : and where 's your violence going to end , john ? i see you going down that same road . because you want revenge on sonny , you 're justifying your actions and you 're getting out of control . and i am so afraid for you . johnny : uh - huh . you 're not afraid for me . you 're afraid for sonny . olivia : oh , how can you say that ? you know that that is not true . johnny : no , no , no . you think that i 'm gon na break sonny and show him the same lack of mercy that he showed my sister . you 're right . olivia : john ... please ... take the blinders off . i 'm trying to save you from yourself . because i love you . johnny : i love you , too . but can you love me the way i am ?

[ scene_break ] carly : oh , god , that 's terrible . enh . no . not me . sonny : why do you even bother ? carly : no way . huh ? what ? sonny : well , you know , none of the girls in those magazines are as beautiful as you are . carly : you caught me . i was just looking for just some ideas . sonny : you do n't strike me as , you know , the type that would look at bridal magazines . carly : oh , a girl has to have some trade secrets . sonny : well , every time we got married , i mean , you looked effortlessly beautiful . carly : really ? sonny : yeah . carly : oh . takes a lot of effort to look effortless . sonny : if you say so . carly : i do . i think i 'm getting ahead of myself , though . we have n't even told morgan yet . [ scene_break ] ava : morgan . what are you doing here ? morgan : we need to talk . it 's important . franco knows about us . [ scene_break ] [ rattling ] franco : [ sighs ] beautiful . [ door opens ] silas : what are you doing here ? franco : this is my father 's office . i ... w - what are you doing here ? silas : none of your business . franco : oh , really ? why -- why would you come visit the district attorney ? are you finally gon na confess to framing nina ? [ scene_break ] ric : time to get rid of the evidence . nina : hi . what are you doing ? ric : hey ! there 's my beautiful wife . nina : not anymore . i want a divorce . ric : i beg your pardon ? nina : you heard what i said . our marriage is over . [ scene_break ] sam : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to get distracted . patrick : [ chuckles ] well , obviously , something 's bothering you , so ... what is it ? sam : remember when i told you i ran into little jake at the hospital yesterday ? he looks so much like jason it 's crazy . patrick : little jake . yeah , i -- i thought the exact same thing when i saw him . sam : c - carly , she was -- she was wrecked . and she did everything she could to keep it together in front of little jake , and it was n't until jake and elizabeth took him away that she finally broke down . and i get it . i totally do . i mean , i think it 's wrong that jason is never gon na know that his son is alive . i think it 's wrong that little jake is never gon na get to know him . but i was also thinking how great it is that little jake and danny , they -- they have each other . anyway , i want them to . patrick : yeah , i think elizabeth does , too . sam : i do n't know about that . i kind of get the idea that she 's ... reluctant for some reason . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so sonny and carly are getting married again ? what is this , like the fourth time ? jason : um , it 's the fifth , apparently . elizabeth : wow . jason : yeah . elizabeth : well , you know what ? good for them . i always thought they were better together than apart . jason : she seems really happy . i 'll give her that . elizabeth : and you know , it must be a trend because her brother lucas is also getting married , which means you , my dear , should get suited for a tux 'cause i have a feeling you 're gon na be on carly 's guest list . jason : yeah , it 's crazy , two people exchanging vows , promising to be with each other for the rest of their lives . that sounds nice . daunting . elizabeth : [ laughs ] jason : sounds nice . i could imagine myself doing something like that . i mean , wanting something like that , something real . [ scene_break ] carly : you know , i have n't seen much of morgan in the past few days . sonny : mm - hmm . carly : he 's not returning my calls . the best i could get was a text . sonny : what 'd he say ? carly : well , i said i was missing my little boy , and he said , `` k. `` i think he 's avoiding me . sonny : well , you know , he 's got a lot going on . carly : what does he have going on that he ca n't call his mother back ? sonny : no , i 'm just saying in general . he 's got a lot -- you know how he gets . carly : like i know how you get when you do n't want to tell me something . so , what is it ? sonny : um ... carly : okay . well , it 's not work 'cause he 's bartending , right ? sonny : mm - hmm . carly : mm - hmm . not michael 'cause they 're still talking , right ? sonny : mm - hmm . carly : i know it 's not kiki because they 're ... do not tell me that he is mixed up with that denise woman again . [ scene_break ] ava : you told franco about us ? morgan : hell , no . why would i tell that freak anything ? ava : well , then relax 'cause i did n't tell him , either . morgan : but he knows , denise . showed up at silas ' right after kiki left , okay ? he even pulled a frickin ' knife on me . ava : did he threaten you ? morgan : no . he pulled a butcher knife out of the knife block , started waving it around in the air , and said that he was gon na do something creative because i was cheating on kiki . does that sound like a threat ? ava : okay . what exactly did he say to you ? morgan : he saw julian and alexis at the metro court after he came from here . figured out real quick that you were hiding me in your room . ava : we -- we could 've been doing anything in there . you know ? you could 've been helping me hang some art or painting the walls , even . morgan : denise , you were in a robe , okay ? it 's not a far stretch for him to figure out that we were n't hanging pictures on the wall ! ava : i can handle franco . morgan : you 're not listening . he knows . he is threatening to tell kiki the truth . ava : no . he 's not gon na do anything that stupid . morgan : how can you be so sure ? [ scene_break ] silas : as usual , i have no idea what you 're talking about . franco : do n't do that . do n't act all superior . i know what you did . i know the truth . i know that you kidnapped baby avery corinthos to take her bone marrow to save ava 's life . silas : who told you that ? franco : ava . or denise . denise demuccio . i do n't know which is a bigger crime against humanity -- manipulating dna so that you can create a grating alias or framing nina for snatching a baby . silas : i never did anything to frame nina . franco : yeah , no , ava said that , but ... you sure as hell had no problem letting your ex - wife take the blame for something that you did . [ scene_break ] nina : i know this is coming out of left field , and that 's -- that 's very , very unfair . ric : are you that unhappy with me ? i mean ... nina : you 've been my rock for the last few weeks . and for that , i 'm so grateful . and i hope that we can remain friends . you 're so great . you 're such a great guy , ric . you 're so amazing , and you deserve the best , and -- and you deserve better than me . you deserve someone who loves you , and that 's not me . i do n't love you . i love franco . i love him . i always have . and i always will . and i was just too stubborn to admit it . and then you were rebounding to get over elizabeth . come on . and i used that to hide my feelings for franco , and i 'm so sorry . ric : look , i think you -- nina : no , let me finish . let me -- let me finish . i think we need to be honest with ourselves , and i think we need to be honest about our feelings , or we can never move on ... ever . do you understand ? ric : no , nina , i 'm afraid i do n't . nina : what ? ric : i 'm sorry , nina . i ca n't allow you to leave me . [ scene_break ] morgan : what makes you think that franco 's not gon na tell kiki about us ? 'cause the guy 's twisted . i mean , he likes making people suffer . ava : from what i understand , franco cares a lot about kiki . i thought i read somewhere that he thought he was her father for a while ? morgan : yeah , but , you know , things were just a mess back then . ava : well , my point is that , while franco might enjoy making certain people suffer , he 's never gon na want to hurt kiki . morgan : you did n't see him , denise . the guy was in overdrive . i have n't seen franco like that since after my mom 's wedding . ava : okay . it 's gon na be okay . i promise you that . if franco cares about kiki the way he says he does , he 's not gon na hurt her by telling her something she does n't need to know , especially if he thinks it was just a one - time mistake . morgan : but we both know that 's a lie , do n't we ? [ scene_break ] silas : i never wanted nina dragged into any of this . franco : oh , come on . i know all about the kindness and the consideration that you have for nina . you cheated on her . then she 's in a coma for 20 years . she wakes up , she 's understandably a little out of it , you have no compassion for her . you ca n't wait to unload her . i see no reason why you would n't frame nina for kidnapping if it saved you and your precious ava . silas : ava was dying ! she had cancer . i had to do everything i could to save her . i took an oath ! franco : yeah , the hippocratic oath . you know that that does n't mean that you 're swearing to be a hypocrite , right ? silas : you 're gon na lecture me on hypocrisy ? you ? franco : ava survived ! it was all done . why -- why could n't you confess then ? you could 've exonerated nina . silas : i could n't do that ! franco : no , you could n't . you could n't do that because then ava would go up the river , and you , too . silas : i know what i did was wrong . franco : silas clay ... did you just tell me that you did something wrong ? silas : what i did goes against everything i believe in , and ... i came here to tell your father everything . franco : why ? why now ? what 's changed ? why speak up now ? you let nina twist in the wind for months . silas : i ca n't live with the fact that ... i 'm the reason nina 's losing her grip on reality again . [ scene_break ] nina : listen , i know i 've had a lot of emotional problems in the last year , but , um ... i 'm doing really good now . i 'm thinking clearly , and this is what i want . ric : oh . i - i 'm glad that 's what you want , but you 're definitely not thinking clearly . nina : what are you doing with that ? ric : with this ? oh , i was gon na destroy this for you . nina : i do n't understand . ric : nina , the walls are closing in , okay ? your brother 's asking a lot of questions about your role in avery 's disappearance . this blanket is the only evidence that connects you to the crime . okay . with this piece of evidence gone , then there 's nothing that would connect you to the kidnapping . except my testimony . [ scene_break ] morgan : we can keep lying to everybody else , but we both know that this was n't some one - time mistake . ava : morgan ... morgan : just stop . ava : ... listen to me . morgan : please stop . ava : okay . so , it was n't a mistake , but that does n't make it right . i do n't want to hurt kiki . you know , she 's my ... she 's my family . morgan : um , i do n't want to hurt her again , either . we 've been through so much together . she 's been really great to me . ava : i know . morgan : but i ca n't stay away from you . ava : [ sighs ] morgan : i 've tried , and i just ca n't . ava : morgan , do n't -- [ scene_break ] carly : first ava and now her evil twin has her claws into our son ? sonny : i never said that morgan did anything -- carly : you did n't have to . i could tell . sonny : the situation 's under control . i had a long talk with morgan . it 's all gon na work out . carly : what 'd you say ? sonny : what i said was , if he goes anywhere near that woman , it 's serious trouble . carly : and our son 's really great at staying away from serious trouble . wonder where he gets that from . sonny : well , do n't look at me . that 's your side of the family . carly : what are you talking about ? what about your family ? sonny : you -- yeah , i guess so . i guess we 're both in trouble here . carly : no , it 's not that bad . laura : wow . nice to see that some things around here do n't change . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you want to get married someday ? jason : i -- well , no . maybe . i was just saying that i could eventually -- [ doorbell rings ] jason : it could be a good thing -- hey , there 's the door . elizabeth : oh . i 'm gon na get it . monica , michael , this is a surprise . michael : i 'm sorry we did n't call . i was telling my grandmother your good news , and -- monica : and i just had to see my grandson . elizabeth : right . of course . come in . monica : thank you . elizabeth : come in . he 's upstairs with cameron and aiden . i 'll go get him . monica : well , jake , it 's good to see you again . jason : you too , dr. quartermaine . monica : no , no , no . remember ? i said it 's monica . jason : yes , ma'am . thank you . monica . got it . hey . how are you ? i , uh -- i stopped by your house the other night to see you , and your grandmother was kind enough to let me wait . monica : oh , excuse me . he is just being polite . i made this poor fellow sit and listen while i went on and on and on about my son . [ scene_break ] sam : jason ... is gone . and i think the closest that danny and little jake are gon na get to him is to know each other . patrick : yeah , no , i agree . but , i mean , as excited as you are about this for danny , which i completely understand , it 's a lot for elizabeth . it 's a little overwhelming . when i saw her , she seemed ... you know , i just think she needs a little bit of time . sam : i -- i get that . i really do . i actually started thinking about when i thought i had lost danny and the grief of losing a child . i mean , you know more than anyone -- it swallows you whole . so i understand why elizabeth is being protective of jake . but the way she was acting -- i do n't know . i just -- i feel like she just ... wanted off the subject , indefinitely . patrick : what makes you say that ? sam : i do n't know . it was the ... tone of her voice ... the look in her eye . i mean , i think she said all of the right things , but she could n't actually commit to a time . and like i said to you , when carly came in , it was like all she could do to get out of there as fast as possible . patrick : so you 're -- you 're worried about pressing the issue . sam : yeah . i am . i -- i do n't think i 'm in any position to do that . but you are . [ scene_break ] monica : oh , jake was incredibly gracious . i told him more than he ever would want to know about your uncle jason . jason : no . no , i meant it when i said it -- i really enjoyed our talk . monica : oh , please ! jason : oh , do n't believe me if you do n't want to , but i certainly hope that we get a chance to talk like that again soon . monica : well , if you are definitely serious , i would really like that . jason : well , good . monica : [ laughs ] jason : you are extremely lucky to have a woman like this in your family . michael : on that we agree . monica : and i think you two are both very lucky to be working together . and i do n't know what it is , but i think i could tell you anything . go figure . jason : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] nina : you would testify against me ? ric : not willingly . but they could call me as a hostile witness . nina : you would tell them what i told you to punish me for leaving you ? ric : of course not . nina , come on . look , i 'm not gon na lie -- it does hurt me that you want to leave me . and i will miss you . but if you want to be with franco , i -- i 'm not gon na stop you . nina : thank you . ric : but -- but ... you got to be smart about this . nina : what do you mean ? ric : well , as long as i 'm married to you , the da ca n't compel me to testify against you . [ scene_break ] franco : what happened to nina ? what are you talking about ? silas : no , this is between me and the da . franco : no . no . you just said that nina 's losing her grip on reality . you need to tell me what 's going on . you need to give me details . silas : nina came to me . she told me she 'd been hearing a baby crying . there 's no baby . franco : okay . silas : nina told me she thinks it 's her guilty conscience telling her that she kidnapped avery and that she blocked it out . franco : you do know how fragile her grip on reality was before all this started , right ? silas : yes , i do . franco : and she 's worked really hard -- right ? -- to get to an okay place , to get to a healthy place , and you and ava , you just destroyed everything that she 's accomplished . silas : that was never my intent . franco : oh . she 's getting pointed at . everybody 's pointing at her , calling her guilty and crazy , and she 's none of those things . she 's just suffering . she 's just suffering . and -- and why ? for what ? she did n't even do anything . what -- what is this all for ? so that ava can live another day to screw morgan behind kiki 's back ? silas : what 'd you just say ? [ scene_break ] ava : no , this -- this is wrong . morgan : no , not now . [ scene_break ] patrick : are you asking me to try and convince elizabeth to let danny and jake be ... ? sam : hey , i do n't want to put a wedge in between your friendship . i just do n't think it 's appropriate for me to press the issue . and things get really tense with me and elizabeth every time we bring the subject of jason up . patrick : i think that 's kind of understandable because jason was able to commit to you when he was n't able to commit to elizabeth . but , i mean , that was a long time ago , so i 'm pretty sure she 's over it . sam : i do n't know . it was n't that long ago when elizabeth did something pretty extreme to hold on to jason . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : here he is . here 's my boy . monica : hi . my name is monica . elizabeth : this is one of your grandmothers . monica : mm - hmm . and , uh -- and this is your cousin michael . michael : nice to meet you , buddy . jake : hi . michael : hi . jason : [ chuckles ] monica : i can see he 's a man of few words , just like his father .

[ laughs ] laura : yes , you 've certainly succeeded . carly : thank you . sonny : it 's too bad we did n't get a chance to talk at luke and tracy 's engagement party . laura : yeah , uh ... i 'm sorry i was less than forthcoming about why i was really there . sonny : no , i -- you know , i get it . it was your son 's life on the line . luke told me the whole story when he was going out of town yesterday . carly : i ca n't believe he 's gone . i ca n't . a while back , he gave me this incredible compliment . he told me that i reminded him of his mother -- my grandmother . laura : really ? carly : yeah . and he said that she was a strong , beautiful woman and that so was i , and i was so honored . and now he takes off and leaves without even saying goodbye . [ both laugh ] laura : yeah . he did n't say goodbye to me , either . that 's just how luke is . carly : well , he left an amazing gift , huh ? he brought little jake home . laura : yes . we are so lucky to have a second chance with little jake , even if there are so many unanswered questions , thanks to helena . carly : yeah , i know what you mean . oh , my god . that little boy -- he looks and acts just like jason . it 's heartbreaking , really . it 's unfair that jason did n't live to see his son come back . laura : uh , yeah . yeah , it 's a shame . sonny : you all right , laura ? [ scene_break ] silas : are you telling me that ava and morgan are sleeping together ? franco : no , it -- it was just , like , a poor choice of words . um , i know that ava 's got the hots for the kid , so , figuratively , i know that she would really like to , you know -- to , um -- silas : there 's nothing figurative about it . morgan is an immature little twit who 's chronically unfaithful . ava is a complete narcissist who cares about nothing but herself , including her own children . how long have ava and morgan been cheating on kiki ? franco : all of ava 's shortcomings aside , i think we should focus on your confession and how that 'll help -- silas : are ava and morgan sleeping together ? ! yes or no ? ! franco : i 've never actually seen them having sex with my own eyes , so i really could n't say . silas : you know , for a world - class liar , you 're getting pretty crappy at it . franco : i resen -i resent that . silas : you should . i 'm out of here . franco : no , you 're gon na -- your confession . silas ! got to help nina ! you got to save nina ! silas ! [ scene_break ] ric : look , i 'm the only one who really knows that you think that you took avery . nina : no , not exactly . ric : this blanket is the only physical evidence , nina , that connects you to the kidnapping . once it 's gone , then we only have my testimony . because you and i are married , spousal privilege applies . court can not compel me to testify about anything that you and i have discussed . nina : how can i stay married to you when i 'm in love with franco ? ric : nina , you have -- you 're in so much trouble right now , okay ? this blanket and your -- your behavior is gon na point to you as the kidnapper . the only way to keep you out of pentonville , at this point , is for us to stay married . i mean , at least for the time being . nina : i just -- i - i just have to think . i - i 'm just so confused . everything is coming at me at once . i just have to think . [ baby cries ] nina : no ! no ! [ crying continues ] [ scene_break ] patrick : `` extreme `` is n't exactly an adjective that i would use to describe elizabeth . what did she do ? sam : uh , she 's one of your closest friends . i do n't want it to seem like i 'm ragging on her right now . patrick : i would n't worry about that . it does n't sound like you are . sam : okay . look , this is n't ... really public knowledge , but ... when danny went missing , um , a baby was found , and jason wanted to make sure that the baby was danny , so he had a dna test run . and elizabeth was the first one to see the results . she knew the baby was danny , and she also knew that danny would bring me and jason together , and she wanted him for herself , so ... she tampered with the test . she falsified the results . patrick : are you kidding me ? how -- how did i not know about this ? sam : i do n't -- i do n't know . but she only knew for like a day , and then she came clean . i guess her conscience got the best of her . patrick : i guess that 's not surprising . elizabeth is n't one to hold a secret like that for very long . [ scene_break ] monica : your cousin michael helped me pick this out for you . jason : thank you . monica : aww . you are more than welcome . michael : man , he still looks so much like jason . jason : yeah , i do n't think your mother was ready for that . carly 's a strong woman , no doubt , but when she saw him ... she crumbled . michael : yeah , the way my mom feels about jason , she , uh -- she misses him every day . so do i . and with little jake being back , seeing how alike they are , it 's ... it makes you mad that jason 's not here . but , um , there 's no point in thinking like that , though . jake 's home . at least we have him back in our lives . jason : yeah . let 's see -- he 's got the quartermaines , the spencers , the webbers , danny morgan -- this kid has more family in his life than he knows what to do with . michael : yeah , he deserves it , after what helena did . jason : yeah . she basically did to him what she did to me -- took him from everybody that loved him . i 'm glad he made it back . [ clears throat ] michael : actually , speaking of the cassadines , have you , um -- do you have any update on nikolas ? jason : hey , look , i have told you before -- [ clears throat ] -- there 's a conflict of interest where elizabeth and nikolas are concerned , so she does n't know about this investigation , so we really ca n't ... michael : okay . i understand . but i have n't heard from you in a couple days . jason : okay . all right . sam and i did find something . apparently , nikolas had a prior relationship with hayden barnes . michael : the woman that ric hired to pretend to be your wife . jason : mm - hmm . and apparently , before she was shot , hayden claimed to know who i really am . [ scene_break ] laura : i 'm sorry . i 'm a little distracted . sonny : well , i do n't blame you . i mean , jake 's back home , but you got -- luke 's gone , lucky 's gone . and i 'm -- you know , i was a little surprised . i 'm sorry that lucky did n't stick around . laura : oh , me too . but you know , lucky 's a restless soul . he was born with all of these really big questions about faith and meaning and -- you know ? he just ca n't stop searching , and we love him , and got to let him go . carly : yeah , but i just -- i ca n't help feeling bad for elizabeth and the boys . especially little jake . i mean , a man drops out of the sky and tells little jake that he 's his father and takes him away from the only life he 's ever known and puts him in a new house with a new family and then just disappears . laura : are you saying that you think that jason would never have done that ? carly : i know he would n't have . laura : oh , okay . well , i 'm not gon na disagree with you , but i know , in my heart , that lucky was doing what he thought was best for elizabeth and those kids . carly : well , cameron and aiden are used to it , but little jake -- this is all new to him . laura : lucky knew that little jake was going to be surrounded by love and have the support of a family . sonny : laura 's right . jake 's got his mother and his brothers , carly . carly : well , let 's not forget his namesake . [ scene_break ] michael : hayden knew the truth about you all along ? jason : i 'm not sure . she slipped into a coma before she could tell us what really happened . michael : what about ric ? does he know who you really are ? jason : apparently , ric was in the dark about my true identity . michael : okay . so , ric brings hayden to port charles , and she just happened to know nikolas . jason : well , according to nikolas , he had met hayden in europe , and they had some sort of affair , and then , uh , she just showed up at his doorstep , looking for help , after everything that went down at the nurses ' ball . michael : that seems pretty convenient , do n't you think ? jason : [ sighs ] maybe . i do n't -- hey . elizabeth : look what i found . another one ! jason : look , hayden has a lot of dirty laundry , so if she and nik share a secret , it could be the key to bringing him down . michael : do n't get me wrong here . i think it 's great that this connection between hayden and nikolas could help me get elq back , but do n't you think you 're missing the big picture here ? jason : how do you mean ? michael : have you considered the possibility that nikolas also knows who you really are ? [ scene_break ] laura : little jake 's namesake ? carly : oh , i do n't mean literally . i was referring to elizabeth 's boyfriend , jake doe . laura : oh . yes . i 've heard of him . right . carly : well , he 's a good friend of mine , and he 's a really nice guy . sonny : yeah , he 's a great guy . carly : the point i 'm trying to make is that he 's strong , he 's steady , and he 's really kind . and little jake 's crazy about him . i saw them together at the hospital the other day . sonny : mm . laura : uh ... you know what , you guys ? i really have to get going . carly : i 'm sorry . sonny : no , hey . laura : but it has been so nice to see you both . sonny : so , you gon na stick around port charles for a little bit ? laura : yeah , that 's the plan . sonny : all right . well , then you can come to our wedding . laura : you 're getting married again ? sonny : [ laughs ] carly : yeah . i 'll save you the math . fifth time . laura : oh , my goodness . wow . i admire your perseverance . sonny : well , you know what ? it 's not gon na be a big thing . just , like , a small ceremony with , you know , family and close friends , so you 'll be getting an invitation in the mail . laura : thank you , sonny . thank you so much . i hope i can make it . bye , you two . carly : bye . sonny : so , um ... i like laura . she 's got a good soul . carly : yeah . sonny : good person . carly : uh - huh . sonny : what 's -- what 's the matter ? carly : i do n't know . just felt weird , you know ? felt like something was troubling her . i do n't know . maybe it 's ... luke , lucky , or ... something else . [ scene_break ] jason : yeah , i -- i 've considered that nikolas may know my real identity , but , uh ... he claims helena never told him . michael : we 're talking about the cassadines here . kind of known for lying . jason : yeah , well , look , there 's a very large difference between raiding a corporation and stealing someone 's life . no matter what he has done to your family or elq ... sam just does n't think that he would hide who i truly am . michael : what do you think ? elizabeth : this is kind of intense . what are you guys talking about ? jason : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] sam : um ... for 24 hours or so , elizabeth got down in the dirt . but thankfully , she is still guided by a pretty strict moral compass . how else would she have come clean about what she did so quickly ? patrick : i guess that 's true , but , i mean ... it 's shocking . sam : yeah . i mean , i 'm not thrilled about it , but i 've made peace with it and put it behind me . patrick : must have been difficult . sam : time helps . and i 'm in no position to judge because when i thought i was losing jason to elizabeth , i did some things that i am definitely not proud of . i just do n't want my past with elizabeth to affect danny being able to know his big brother . i mean , little jake and danny are jason 's sons . they have every right to be in each other 's lives . patrick : i 'll talk to her . sam : it 's not asking too much ? patrick : i 'll do anything for you . sam : thank you .

franco tries to break into scott 's desk drawer . silas goes to scott 's office and finds franco sitting in scott 's chair . franco asks if silas is visiting the district attorney 's office because he 's finally going to confess to framing nina . silas confirms that he came to tells scott everything because nina is losing her grip on reality again . franco thinks it 's unfair that nina is suffering just so ava can live to screw morgan behind kiki 's back . carly figures out that morgan must be involved with denise . sonny assures her that is under control . morgan tells denise that franco knows about them and that he 's going to tell kiki . denise says franco would n't do anything to hurt kiki . silas goes to nina 's place , lets himself in the open door , and catches morgan and denise in bed together .

[ scene_break ] cameron : i 've been trying to reach you . alexis : why is that ? cameron : i want to thank you for putting yourself on the line for me at the quartermaines ' . alexis : i walked right into their trap . john , could i get another ? thank you . cameron : it kept me from being arrested . and i think the worst is over . no more butler disguises and nobody charged you with violating the restraining order . what could 've been a total disaster -- alexis : was a disaster . see , now there 's a new restraining order . i 've lost my little girl . and as grateful as i am to you for everything that you 've done for me , i wish i never met you .

[ scene_break ] lydia : everything i wrote in the note is true . you may not love me , but i 've fallen in love with you . [ lucky scoffs ] lydia : i tried telling you , but you would n't believe me . lucky : give me a break . nikolas : let her finish . lydia : could you leave us alone , please ? lucky : no . nikolas : my brother can hear whatever it is you have to tell me . lydia : i know you think i 'm a liar , that i 'm incapable of any real emotions , that all i want is the money . but i swear , i 'm being honest . i 've been falling in love with you all along . you were just too busy with emily to notice , but it did n't stop me from noticing . you have strength , character . you 're tender , you 're smart . you actually know what it means to be a gentleman , and you act accordingly . that 's a rare quality , nikolas . if you did n't want me to fall for you , you should 've never let me see how you treat emily . lucky : you 're only in it for the dollar signs . lydia : i 'm not so shallow i 'd kill myself over money . my parents and my grandparents barely acknowledged me . it did n't occur to them to love me . when you said that you never would and you walked out -- i do n't know . something in me gave up . nikolas : oh , boy . do you even know how not to lie , lydia ? [ scene_break ] courtney : you know , just because i 'm queasy does n't mean that i 'm pregnant . jason : i was n't thinking you were . i was just remembering carly sitting on the couch one day , probably telling me something i did n't want to hear , and all of a sudden , she got sick . she said that breathing thing usually helped her feel better . courtney : yeah , i 'm just -- i do n't know , i have n't been eating right or getting enough sleep because of all the stress over carly , that 's all . getting pregnant right now would n't be good for anyone . jason : no , it would n't .

[ scene_break ] faith : first you killed my husband , and then ric , and now it is your turn . i should 've done this a long time ago . michael : your sundae 's on the counter . you want me to eat it for you ? sonny : uh , do me a favor , ok ? just go in there and wait for a second , all right ? i 'll be out in about three seconds . michael : ok . sonny : do n't come back out . faith : never would 've pegged you as the fatherly type . but that 's your problem because you just sent away your one chance to get out of this alive . sonny : you 're not going to kill me because then you 're not going to know where i got ric . faith : you are lying . you are bluffing to save your miserable life . sonny : ric 's alive in one of my safe houses . faith : prove it . sonny : first things first -- you cooperate , you may get to see ric permanently . faith : i cooperate ? i 'm the one holding the gun here . sonny : yeah , but i got what you want -- not just my worthless brother , but a way to help you stay out of prison . you help me bring down alcazar , right ? faith : mm - hmm ? sonny : and you 'll be keeping your deal with the feds . if you refuse , i will throw ric to alcazar , who wants him dead worse than i do . faith : why does alcazar want ric for ? sonny : well , you 're going to have to ask him . there 's an offer on the table . either you shoot me now or let 's go over details . faith : what do you want me to do ? sonny : first , put that gun down . all right . how would you feel about getting into the drug business ?

[ scene_break ] alexis : thank you , john . cameron : well , that would explain my unreturned phone calls . alexis : it was a bloodbath . cameron : the quartermaines ? alexis : no , the follow - up hearing . ned got full custody of kristina and the corrupt judge farmer has denied me any visitation at all or i go to jail . cameron : well , i 'm sorry to hear that , but allow me to present you with the blue ribbon for ingratitude . i compromised my moral and professional integrity to protect you , alexis . alexis : oh , i do n't know , i think you got a little kick out of me being in debt to you . fed your ego to keep my little secret , huh ? cameron : and what about my career ? did n't i put that on the line for you a hundred times to go along with your phony insanity plea ? not to mention your brilliant butler charade -- both of which were your ideas . alexis : uh - huh , and i wanted alcazar to kill my sister , threaten me , forcing me to go into premature labor . i wanted all the bad , bad things to happen to me just the way they happened . cameron : i let my son think i was gay . i protected you when you kidnapped kristina . i committed perjury and obstruction of justice . i put everything on the line for you , alexis , because i cared about you . obviously , i 've wasted the emotion . but if you can stand there and actually blame me for how your choices have come back to bite you , well , you 've either had too many manhattans or you really are too unstable to raise your child .

[ scene_break ] lorenzo : it 's bad manners to let a woman drink alone . but in your case , i 'll make an exception . i like breathing . faith : if i were as lethal as you seem to think , how could i possibly stay out of jail ? lorenzo : good question . you were supposed to get the goods on corinthos . what happened to that ? faith : well , my deal fell through . seems the d.a . dropped the attempted murder charges . lack of evidence . so my incentive to work with the government just disappeared . lorenzo : so why have you called me ? sonny : i want carly back , alcazar wants to land his shipment , faith wants ric . the only way she 's going to get to see him is if i give her access . that 's how i know she 'll keep her end of the deal . [ scene_break ] faith : i have a very interesting proposition for you .

[ scene_break ] alexis : my daughter was rushed to the hospital . what do you expect me to do as her mother ? what do you expect me to do , just sit and wait for someone to call me and tell me that she 's ok ? skye : kristina is getting treatment , ok ? there is nothing more to be done and no reason for you to be here . alexis : you do not have custody of kristina . it is not your place to make decisions . skye : ned went out of town . he left kristina in my care . alexis : well , he should n't have done that . stop playing house with my daughter . get one of your own , skye . skye : you know i ca n't have a child . alexis : then adopt one . of course , they do n't usually give privileges to alcoholics . skye : oh , you know what , i am not even going to listen to this . i 'm going to see kristina . alexis : you do n't care about kristina ! you 're just using her to get to ned . skye : i love that little girl . alexis : you do n't love anyone but yourself . skye : oh , i hardly think you are in the position to criticize , alexis . you lost custody because you proved that you are incapable of putting kristina 's needs first . you do n't care about her security , her happiness . in fact , you do n't think about kristina at all except as a possession that by god belongs to you because she came out of your womb . well , you know what , here 's a little tip -- mother does not equal owner . alexis : here 's another little tip -- i am going to see my daughter , and you and the quartermaines and judge farmer can all go to hell . [ scene_break ] stefan : lydia , why keep up the pretense ? i know you staged the overdose . lydia : are you implying i ca n't have real emotions ? stefan : real emotions are something you exploit in other people . lydia : oh . the way you exploit the nephew you claim to love so much ? stefan : i do love nikolas . lydia : if you did , you 'd want him to be with emily . what they have is real . do n't worry , i have n't turned into a hopeless romantic . i 'll marry nikolas -- the sooner , the better -- but the day it 's done is the day you leave town . i wo n't let you go on manipulating me or nikolas . stefan : you 're in no position to give ultimatums . lydia : oh , really ? push me too far , i 'll go straight to the police and tell them the real story behind summer halloway 's tragic death . [ scene_break ] nikolas : if emily and i just -- just said the hell with everything and got together , it would be doomed from the start . lucky : emily loves you . nikolas : she loves zander , too . lucky : maybe . maybe because of -- she feels obligated to him , because of their past . nikolas : look , the only reason that emily and i even came close to getting together was to help her push zander away . it 's all about him for her . it always will be . lucky : well , who is it about for you , nikolas ? what do you need ? [ scene_break ] faith : you have to sell your merchandise to someone . why not me ? lorenzo : i already have distributors waiting for my product . faith : and how much are they willing to pay ? lorenzo : $ 2.5 million for the first shipment . faith : i 'll double that . lorenzo : why ? faith : revenge . sonny does n't want drugs in his territory . it 's a strange double - standard , really , since he has no problem littering the bay with dead bodies , namely my husband 's . i want to rub his nose in my rise to power , and your drugs give me that chance . the stronger i get , the weaker sonny will be till i bury him . lorenzo : i 've made sure there 's no way this merchandise can be traced back to me , so if this is a setup , mrs. rosco -- faith : do i look stupid to you ? lorenzo : you 're dangerous , mrs. rosco , to yourself and to others . i need to decide if you 're dangerous to me . faith : i will be profitable for you , lorenzo . so are we in business or not ?

jason told courtney to breathe in and out slowly while she sat down , feeling nauseous . jason told her that it had worked while carly was pregnant with michael . courtney said she was n't pregnant , and jason said he was just drawing a parallel . courtney agreed with jason that having a baby would n't be good for either of them at the moment . at home , she did a home pregnancy test . she looked at the result with dread , and it confirmed that she was in fact pregnant ( yay ) ! ! ! !

sonny : milo , just do what i tell you -- stay close to the courthouse , keep checking in with me . kate : sorry if this is a bad time , but -- sonny : okay . your lips are doing that thing . kate : i was subpoenaed to testify at jason morgan 's trial . sonny : by the prosecution ? kate : apparently , i was with you the afternoon lorenzo alcazar disappeared , and then again with you yesterday when there was some shootout during jason 's transfer from prison . you know , it just makes me wonder how many times you set me up to be your alibi . [ scene_break ] ofc . riley : sorry , closed courtroom . carly : i 'm sorry , but is n't this the good old u.s. of a. ? we 're entitled to a speedy and public trial . ofc . riley : the judge closed the courtroom for security purposes . carly : well , i 'll take my chances . that 's my best friend on trial and he needs me . ofc . riley : go through that door , and i 'll throw you in jail . [ scene_break ] officer : go right in . we 'll call you when it 's your turn . elizabeth : thank you . [ sam sighs ] sam : now , this makes the day perfect . elizabeth : i 'm not going to fight with you . sam : really ? you know , jason is the one with the fight on his hands . and i ca n't help wondering , when this day is over , who is going to end up hurting him the most . [ scene_break ] ric : on behalf of the district attorney 's office , i would just like to thank you all for giving up your valuable time to execute your civic duty . this will not be a long trial , because the evidence that we have is irrefutable . jason morgan -- that man sitting right over there - is guilty of first - degree murder . his crime was not fueled by greed , it was n't committed in the heat of passion , or even in self - defense . lorenzo alcazar 's death was calculated , premeditated , cold - blooded murder -- but that 's what mr. morgan does . see , he is a professional killer . shooting lorenzo alcazar was just another day at the office for him . but the fact is , a man is dead , and jason morgan should be made to pay for his crime . [ scene_break ] robin : hey , mom , it 's me . i do n't know of you plans , but i would like to do something with you -- if you 're not too busy with noah , or whatever . call me back . bye . patrick : hey , have you seen my father ? i got paged for a consult ; i thought he might want to take it . robin : no . i ca n't get in touch with my mom , either . patrick : what do you think that means ? robin : i do n't know . she either left town to stop a rebel coup , or she does n't want me to question her about noah , or they 're together and they turned their phones off to do god knows what . patrick : or not . noah : thank god you 're here . look , can you cover for me ? i 've got to get to the metro . oh , how does eli love get along in life without a freaking watch ? patrick : you know what ? he 's got people that get him where he needs to be , when he needs to be . do n't worry , i got you . noah : [ as eli ] it 's all rock and love , people . [ noah chuckles ] noah : ahem . robin : the metro court ? i bet you he 's meeting my mother for a -- patrick : a quickie . [ patrick sighs ] [ scene_break ] kate : well , this explains why you showed up yesterday on my terrace , and your sudden desire to start a romance with me . it was a calculated ploy to use me and my good reputation . sonny : that 's a hell of a conclusion you 're jumping to . kate : you needed an alibi . so now when the judge asks where you were during jason 's attempted escape , i can say , `` oh , your honor , it was so special -- sonny declared his affections for me , and then we got pinned . sonny : those gunmen had nothing to do with me . they were there to kill jason , not set him free . kate : the paper said that three of the gunmen died -- sonny : yeah ? kate : and also a police guard . sonny : okay ? kate : i believe they call that `` collateral damage `` in your business . sonny : if jason had been hurt or killed because i was distracted with you , i could never forgive myself . kate : well , i can not forgive you for using me . sonny : we got caught up in something -- memories , possibilities -- but i never used you . kate : so you 're saying it 's just a coincidence ? sonny : all of it . kate : hmm . oh . sonny : i mean , look , ever since , you know , your car broke down outside my office , all -- all you kept saying was `` we can never go back . `` kate : so you 're saying i 'm right ? sonny : not about using you as an alibi . but what happened between us the other day , the business with jason -- it 's -- they were warning signs , and it 's just starting to add up . you -- hey , i hate to admit it -- you were absolutely right . i mean , it 's not a good time right now for either of us to get involved . [ scene_break ] carly : i probably did n't make myself clear , but the man on trial -- he 's my family . okay , not by blood , but i think that family by choice can be as strong as any biological bond , do n't you think ? i mean , do n't you have anybody like that in your life -- `` riley `` ? someone who will accept you for who you are , no matter how crazy you get ? you probably do n't get too crazy , do you ? okay , someone who will do anything for you , so when the time comes for you to be able to repay that person for being your rock and your anchor , and you can support them completely -- i owe that to jason , i really do . ofc . riley : you 're lucky to have such a good friend . carly : yes , i am , i -- and so are you , so are you . so why do n't you close your eyes and say a little prayer of gratitude , and i 'm going to walk right in and no one will be the wiser . ofc . riley : better yet , i 'll keep my eyes open and watch you leave -- that way . carly : you know what ? i 'm being punished because you have a dull , boring life with no friends . you have no friends . ofc . riley : hire a lawyer , petition the judge -- it 's the only way to get past me . [ scene_break ] sam : so , is lucky going to be in court ? elizabeth : i do n't know , we did n't talk about it . sam : gee . i wonder why . elizabeth : if you do n't mind -- sam : it 's a direct feed from the courtroom . [ elizabeth sighs ] sam : so what are you going to say on the stand ? elizabeth : depends on what they ask me . sam : like , about your relationship with jason . elizabeth : i 'm going to be honest . sam : good for you . elizabeth : well , are n't you ? sam : well , the truth could be a problem , especially in this case . i was on the inside , i know a lot about jason 's work . if i tell the truth , i could be jason 's worst nightmare . elizabeth : i ca n't believe that things went so wrong between the two of you that you would be willing to hurt the man who has given you so much . [ scene_break ] diane : the district attorney failed to mention his very real , personal vendetta against my client , jason morgan . that man has accused jason morgan of everything from murder to moonshine . and in every case , the charges were without merit , and so they were dropped -- as they should 've been dropped in this case , because , once again , the district attorney is , quite simply , wrong , and jason morgan is not guilty . the d.a . never bothered to look at one other suspect in this case . and he also failed to mention that this is a murder trial without a dead body . there 's no body . lorenzo alcazar is a well - known crime figure and an international arms dealer . he calls venezuela home , he holds a venezuelan passport . he is also a person of interest in the recent hostage crisis at the metro court . but before he could be questioned about that , lorenzo alcazar disappeared . he is , quite simply , no longer in port charles but instead of finding lorenzo alcazar -- wherever he may be -- the district attorney has , once again , decided to railroad my client , because it has become standard procedure to lay any and all crimes -- unsolved crimes in the greater port charles area -- at the feet of jason morgan . i will agree with the district attorney on one thing only -- this is going to be a very short trial . because i have every confidence that after you see past the d.a . 's smoke and mirrors , past his so - called evidence , that y will find jason morgan not guilty . judge : mr. lansing , are you ready to call your first witness ? ric : yes , i am , your honor . the prosecution calls samantha mccall . [ scene_break ] sonny : it says a lot that you think i 'd use you as an alibi . kate : your career puts you in desperate situations , i assume you use whatever is available . sonny : i do n't work that way . kate : are you saying you never used carly ? sonny : carly 's different . i mean , she -- she knows my life , she threw herself into it headfirst . i did everything i could to try to protect her from the worst of it , just like i would 've tried to protect you if we had moved on . but you 're right , you know ? we cut our losses , and that 's the way it goes . kate : glad you agree . sonny : it 's just that i got carried away , you know ? because sometimes i 'd see -- i got to admit -- and i 'd see connie from a long time ago , who -- huh -- who left me , who wanted a better life for herself . well , you know what ? you got that . you have great instincts , kate . you knew what you wanted , you went after it . kate : yeah , well , that 's what i 've been trying to tell you . sonny : yeah , well , you know what ? thank god we -- you know , we caught it early here , right ? no harm done . kate : oh -- right . hmm . you know what 's ironic , is that i came here with all righteous indignation , to -- to tell you that i was finished . instead , you blow me off . i wish i never walked in this place . [ scene_break ] ric : ms. mccall , you lived with the defendant for how long ? sam : a little over three years . ric : may we assume that you know jason morgan and his lifestyle intimately , then ? sam : yeah , i 'd say so . ric : would you consider jason morgan to be a dangerous man ? diane : objection . your honor , this calls for a conclusion beyond the witness ' qualifications . judge : sustained . ric : does mr. morgan keep any guns in his house ? sam : yes . ric : how many ? sam : i 'm not sure . ric : how about a ballpark figure ? diane : objection . asked and answered , your honor . she 's not sure . judge : overruled . rephrase , mr. lansing . ric : yes , your honor . to the best of your knowledge , ms. mccall , does mr. morgan own less than three guns ? sam : no . ric : more than five ? sam : yes . ric : well . that 's pretty much an arsenal . diane : objection , your honor . the d.a . is stating his personal opinion , not a fact . judge : sustained . the jury will disregard the d.a . 's last remark . ric : ms. mccall , to the best of your knowledge , has mr. morgan ever taken any of his more than five guns out and used them to shoot people ? sam : he 's taken them out of the house , but i have no idea -- ric : have you ever seen him shoot and kill anyone with any of those weapons ? sam : yes , i have , but it was -- ric : so how many people actually have you seen mr. morgan shoot and kill in the time that you 've known him ? less than three ? more than five ? sam : more than five . ric : well , that averages out to about 1.25 victims per year that you 've known him . diane : objection ! judge : sustained . ric : have you ever been shot , ms. mccall ? [ sam sighs ] sam : yes . ric : by mr. morgan ? sam : no . ric : by who ? sam : manny ruiz . ric : and what was his motive ? sam : he wanted revenge on jason . diane : objection . calls for speculation . judge : sustained . ric : have you ever had to use a gun while in the company of mr. morgan ? sam : yes . ric : is mr. morgan 's closest friend the reputed crime boss michael corinthos jr. , better known as sonny corinthos ? sam : yes . ric : hmm . the same sonny corinthos who was on trial for shooting lorenzo alcazar ? diane : objection , your honor . mr. corinthos is not on trial here today , and mr. alcazar apparently was n't dead in any of those cases , either . judge : sustained . careful , mr. lansing , get to where you 're going . ric : yes , your honor . is it not true that mr. morgan has been a long - standing employee of mr. corinthos ? diane : your honor ? ahem -- the defense stipulates a working relationship . mr. corinthos and mr. morgan are partners in a coffee business . ric : all right , then fine . let 's -- let 's review , ms. mccall . in your experience of living with mr. morgan , you 've known him to be a man who owns more than five guns , which he has used to shoot more than five people . again , i have to ask you , ms. mccall , would that make mr. morgan a more dangerous man than someone who simply imports coffee beans ?

robin : do you mind if i join you ? the baby 's really craving french toast . anna : you do n't have to use the baby as an excuse . i 'm not going to fight with you . sit down . robin : that 's good , because i was n't sure that you even wanted to speak to me after what i did last night . anna : you 're my daughter , and i love you . that being said , setting me up to save eli from a staged kidnapping was not only unnecessary , but it was probably one of the more humiliating moments of my life .

[ scene_break ] diane : anna devane attacked you ? max : she thought me and milo were trying to kidnap eli love . diane : well , how did she get that impression ? max : well , we were wearing masks , and we tried to grab him as he got into his limo . diane : i assume they did this under your orders . sonny : uh , well , robin scorpio is an old friend of mine . this character , eli love , was treating her mom badly , and robin wanted this guy to see anna kicking butt . diane : specifically max 's butt ? sonny : i -- wait . max and milo , they were just doing what robin told them to do , because i told them to do whatever robin told them to do . and robin 's happy . i 'm happy . now , i 'm going to give max and milo a bonus , and they 're going to be very happy . and right now , we do n't -- we do n't need to hear any lectures , right , max ? diane : that 's easy for you to say . you 're not the one whose face was beaten to a bloody pulp -- by a granny . max : it looks a lot worse than it really is . diane : do n't try to put a good face on this . not that you could , because it 's easy to see that you are hurting . max : my neck is a little sore . diane : would a massage make you feel any better ? max : you brought the table ? diane : of course . it 's out in the car . why do n't you go start setting up while i finish with -- finish with sonny ? max : all right . sonny : you got a massage table ? diane : max appreciates it . you know , i just might get one as a wedding gift for you and kate . sonny : do n't bother . diane : all right . back to these contracts . you need to look them over and make sure that they reflect -- sonny : uh , diane ? diane ? sit down . does jason know about my deal with karpov ? [ scene_break ] anna : see , there was nothing worse than a past - her - prime spy buying into a staged scenario designed to help boost her self confidence . robin : that was n't the only reason i did it . anna : well , i do n't believe that you seriously wanted sonny 's men to kidnap eli and -- and break his kneecaps . robin : that would have been a perk . anna : yeah . but violence is never the answer , ever . it 's a necessary evil in some occupations , however . robin : okay . i admit that i wanted eli to see you in action . because i do n't want you to think that being a grandmother changes who you are . you 're still the same incredibly sexy , super spy that you 've always been . anna : thank you . i appreciate the thought . but it 's unnecessary . you know , eli may have bruised my ego , but i 'm certainly not going to let him undermine my self confidence . robin : good . well , i 'm sorry that i went overboard . i just wanted to remind you that you 're my hero . anna : as long as you believe in me , i do n't give a damn what eli thinks .

[ scene_break ] ric : since when do you care if sonny and jason are best of friends or mortal enemies ? claudia : karpov is the wild card in this entire equation . there 's just no telling whether he 's going to respect the boundaries that are being set . ric : well , there 's always a chance that karpov could go back on his word . take sonny out along with jason . claudia : is that what you 're hoping for ? that jason will kill sonny for betraying him ? ric : if that were my plan , would it bother you ? [ scene_break ] sonny : it 's obvious you do n't approve of my deal with karpov . diane : i am concerned . sonny : concerned enough to tell jason ? diane : as you pointed out , our conversations are covered under attorney - client privilege . sonny : so you have n't told jason ? diane : no . sonny : and you ca n't tell me if maybe , you know , somebody else might have said something to him ? diane : neither jason nor any of his associates have ever mentioned the name andrei karpov to me . sonny : good . diane : which means that there is still time for a full disclosure . pcpd visitor log indicates that you went to see jason shortly before his release . sonny : i offered to help jason . he turned me down . diane : well , i 'm sorry to hear that . sonny : you know , he 's going to have to -- you know -- he 's going to run the organization the way he thinks fit , and if i see he 's making a mistake , i ca n't do anything about it . so he 's just going to have to fix it on his own . diane : i just assumed that , had jason been receptive to your overture , you would have told him about andrei karpov . so , with that objective in mind , might i suggest a meeting between you and jason ? sonny : no , no , no . listen . there 's -- there 's nothing to discuss . jason 's doing what he thinks is right , and so am i .

[ scene_break ] sam : if you came here to warn me again that this plan is dangerous , save your breath , lucky . i 'm not changing my mind . lucky : i 'm not trying to change your mind . sam : okay , but you still hate the idea that i 'm going undercover . lucky : no , it 's that i hate what it means , us pretending to break up . sam : okay . lucky : i miss you . sam : it will be over soon . i promise . lucky : but i need you now . especially with lulu somewhere still out there with johnny .

[ scene_break ] sonny : the only reason i 'm working for karpov is to keep him out of jason 's way . if i go public by stepping in , then it would imply that i have doubts about the way jason 's running the organization . i do n't want to undermine jason in any -- in any way . i want to just stay behind the scenes . diane : i do n't doubt your intentions . in fact , i find them reassuring , as i 'm sure jason would if you would simply tell him . sonny : he has too much to worry about , diane . diane : what if he hears about it from somebody else ? sonny : he knows i would never betray him , diane .

[ scene_break ] jax : okay , first you stow away on my plane , then you sabotage me in the middle of a meeting , and now you handcuff us together . when is this going to stop ? carly : when we 're back together . jax : handcuffing us together and pretending to lose the key , carly , is not going to impress me . carly : you know , i 'm serious ; i have no idea where the key is . jax : just tell me where you left it . carly : if i knew where the key was , we would be uncuffed by now . i do n't know where it is . jax : where did you see it last ? carly : i -- i think right here . jax : well , it 's not there , is it ? carly : no . jax : so you must have moved it , because i certainly did n't move it . maybe it 's over here . carly : i did n't move it either . you know , what if it 's on the floor ? oh ! jax : are you okay ? carly : yeah -- better . jax : i knew it ; the whole thing 's just a set up . where 's they key ? where 's the key ? carly : i do n't know .

[ scene_break ] michael : hey , i 'm glad i caught you before you to pentonville . jason : i 'm not going back yet . turns out , franco 's not dead . michael : but i thought you pushed him off a building -- jason : no , that whole thing was a set - up . franco is still out there . dante has decided not to take me back . why were you even at the hospital ? michael : heh , where do you want me to start ? um , i got into a fight and i burned my hand . jeez , that seems like a million years ago . jason : okay , you get into a fight on your first day ? michael : yeah . my boss sent me to the hospital to get it checked out . then the hospital went on lockdown because somebody grabbed a baby . and then i heard somebody screaming . it was kristina , and mr. bauer was about to hit her . and i stepped in and i did the things you taught me , and i kinda got a little carried away . lucky and ethan had to pull me off . jason : well , it 's good that you protected kristina , michael . michael : yeah . dad 's worried about the other fight , though . the one at work . jason : yeah , but he does n't want you to go back to pentonville . michael : yeah . anyway , lucky and mac basically let me get away with hitting mr. bauer . and i guess it pushed him over the edge , because he came back with a gun , completely out of his mind . he was going to shoot kristina . i got in the way of that one , too . jason : did anyone get hurt when bauer lost it ? michael : yeah , mac got shot in the chest , actually . and ethan got shot in the neck . he almost bled to death , but he 's going to be okay . but yeah , i was in that hospital for so long , i started to feel like i was in prison . jason : i 'm sorry , michael . i know that you have more than enough to deal with right now , but i do n't know how much time i have , so i got ta tell you what happened in los angeles . michael : that does n't sound too good . jason : franco put a lot of stuff in his exhibit . there was video footage of carter . so i know for sure that franco sent carter after you as a way to get to me . and i ca n't tell you how sorry i am for that . michael : look , carter would have came here regardless . that 's the way prison works . do n't blame yourself . jason : as carter was dying , he told me franco says hi . michael : that does n't matter . that does n't matter , jason . carter saw something in me . i made him think he can do anything . jason : you survived . okay ? that 's what matters . you 're out of prison , you 're free and carter is dead . michael : you said that franco had carter in his exhibit . jason : yeah . michael : was i in the exhibit , too ? jason : there was a copy of your prison id photo on display . but i do n't think anybody knew who you were , except for me . michael : okay . thanks for telling me the truth . i mean , i know you could have covered it up but you did n't . i appreciate you telling me that . jason : you ca n't change ... you ca n't change what happened . michael . you got ta focus on your life as it is now . find a way to move on . michael : i almost killed mr. bauer . i was about to stab his neck like you taught me . i would have done it , jason . jason : you do n't have to let the anger take over . you can find a way to control it . michael : maybe you need to teach me that . [ scene_break ] lucky : okay , so , let 's put together what we know . dante : well , franco lures me and jason to l.a . it turns out this thing is all about the number 66 . lucky : yeah , and there 's a 66 on aiden 's hospital id number . dante : so basically that kidnapping was random . lucky : yeah , it was all about the number . dante : everything at franco 's exhibit was about the number 66 , too . lucky : okay . dante : i mean , complete with recreations of places he 's been to in port charles with a double of sam inside a plexiglas box . it was like an alternate universe . everything was basically to goad jason . lucky : yeah , in the meantime franco showed up on the hospital monitors , said that he took the baby . and at some point , it switched over to a live feed , and franco almost had to have tech support to make that happen . dante : jason chases franco up to the roof . we think he pushes franco off , but it 's not franco . lucky : so while franco 's faking his own death in los angeles , a nurse that he planted in the hospital with a not - too- coincidental name jane morgan handed off the baby to someone who in turn got aiden to franco . and nurse morgan was probably expecting a big pay - off . instead , she gets killed . dante : this still all tracks back to jason . he 's the only person we know that spoke to franco in l.a . lucky : okay , then we 'll talk to jason . we hear everything that franco told him , word for word . dante : let 's go . [ scene_break ] sam : i completely understand that you have been through hell in the past few months . i mean , considering everything that 's gone on with kiefer , blaming your father seems like a pretty convenient substitute . kristina : if you 're about to give me the `` sonny tries so hard to be a good father speech '' - sam : no , i 'm not . i 'm just letting you know that sonny , your father , has a lot of issues . and maybe instead of repeating the same mistakes , you can learn from them . kristina : what do you mean , repeating ? sam : come on , krissie . i mean , for starters , your father can hold a grudge longer than anyone i have ever met . kristina : that 's not what i 'm doing . sam : just think about it for a second , please . okay , look . okay , fine , your father wasted a lot of time being angry with mike because he left him to the mercy of his stepfather . you know that his childhood was hell , and he stayed really , really angry . and look at what he threw away because of a dad who actually wanted to be close . i mean , i , out of anyone i wish i had that . i 'd take that over anything . but in some small way , sonny still blames mike for everything that went wrong in his life . kristina : i 'm not blaming my dad for my problems . sam : come on . sure you are . you are using all that anger to justify yourself destructive behavior . you went after johnny zacchara . kristina : this is starting to sound like a lecture . sam : no , please . i 'm ... i 'm not trying to lecture you . please . your parents have given you a really , really good life . you 've never had to work a day in your life . you get whatever you want . your parents practically fall all over themselves to make you happy . all i 'm trying to say is that blaming other people for your own problems , you kind of lose control of your life . kristina : so i 'm supposed to just ignore how unfair dad 's being to michael ? sam : this is n't about michael right now . i just want you to focus on yourself , and take the time to figure out what it is that you really want . because if you spend your entire life with a grudge against your father , you are not going to be happy . [ scene_break ] johnny : it 's time to take this thing with sonny to the next level . ethan : oh , i hate it when you say that . johnny : i 've already nabbed two of his big suppliers . and the rest of them are going to jump ship when they find out he 's got no security . ethan : okay , yeah , assuming that the proof of that exists . johnny : the proof does exist , and it 's going to piss him off . and when sonny gets pissed , sonny gets vulnerable . ethan : and it 's also gotten to the point where sonny blows up cars , in case you forgot . johnny : okay , sonny ca n't risk another big move like that . he 's too exposed with no way to fight back . and when his customers see that , sonny 's going to be out of business . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm having a private conversation here about a very personal situation . olivia : absolutely right . i should n't have said a word . i apologize . claire : you know what , wait . i 'm actually interested in what you have to say . olivia : no , no , i should not have interrupted . sonny : yeah , but you did , and now she 's all curious . so , by all means , let 's hear what you got to say . olivia : you 're serious ? sonny : yeah . olivia : okay , speaking personally , from my own experience , having a child with sonny corinthos is a difficult , if not dangerous situation . i knew that at the age of 15 , which is why i chose to raise my child as a single teenage mother . sonny : yeah , but if i had a chance with dante , i might have had a relationship with him . olivia : i thought it was more important to keep our child away from the mob . and i would think , given your line of work , that you would see things the same way . claire : oh , believe me , i do . all i want is what you used to have , ms. falconeri -- a beautiful , intelligent child with no connection to sonny at all . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] ethan : come in . kristina : how are you doing ? ethan : oh , hey . are you ready to break me out of this joint ?

[ scene_break ] alexis : i just got your message . so what 's going on with kristina ? under the circumstances , she was in pretty good shape when she left the hospital . sam : yeah , that 's what i thought you had said . no , she actually called me here . okay , she 's still holding some pretty major resentment against sonny . alexis : sonny just told me that things were getting a little bit better between them . sam : yeah , i know , apparently not . mom , she needs us . she 's still really angry with him . alexis : could you be a little more specific ? sam : all she said is that she does n't like the way he treats michael . alexis : he dotes on michael . everybody knows that . sam : i know , that 's what i said , but she does n't agree and she 's angry and she 's sticking to it . alexis : look , she 's got a lot of issues with her father , but i think she 's misdirecting a lot of the anger , she 's angry at kiefer , and unfortunately she ca n't take it out on him so she 's taking it out on sonny . sam : i know , i told her the same exact same . she does n't seem to agree . alexis : i wish the two of them could figure out what to do and then move on . sam : yeah , i know , but unfortunately , they 're a little bit too much alike . alexis : they are more alike than i care to admit . [ scene_break ] sonny : well , olivia , she was really young when she got pregnant , so the situation does n't apply . olivia : you asked for my opinion and you knew i would give it to you . proceed at your own risk . claire : you know , you really do have a way with the mothers of your kids . they always seem so content . serene . sonny : yeah , yeah . but it does n't really matter , because i 'm not going to have any more children , not with you , not with anyone who asks . you want to have this baby thing , you know why ? because you want to keep yourself away from me . claire : and how would that work ? sonny : well , you have this condition that you know i 'll never meet , right ? because that way you do n't have to admit that you want me . claire : i do n't need an excuse to stay away from you . if you wo n't give me a baby , i do n't think there 's anything to talk about . [ scene_break ] johnny : hi . olivia : hi . i owe you an apology . johnny : no , you do n't . olivia : yes , i do . i was way out of line to compare you to warren bauer . you are nothing like him . i know that , and i wish i could take those words back . johnny : you said exactly what was on your mind , and that 's one of the many things i love about you . but you 're not going to change my plans for sonny . [ scene_break ] lucky : so you chased franco up to the roof ? jason : yeah , lucky , please , we 've been through this . he shot at me , not to hit me but to slow me down . lucky : okay , is there anything else that you remember ? jason : i mean , franco said something about how babies were trusting and fragile and that how having a connection with someone from the time they were born changes everything . then he said something to me about how i would be the only person who could appreciate what was about to happen , and that 's when he went onto the roof and i was a flight or two behind , i do n't know , 20 or 30 seconds . by the time i got up there , he was across the roof near the edge . dante : i looked up , he yelled , `` do n't kill me , i know where the baby is , `` and then he fell . dante : except it was n't franco . lucky : so where the hell did he take the baby ? dante : well , why do n't we find the one person we know franco 's connected to ? his mother .

'cause i have so much on my plate right now , sonny , with olivia in the hospital . sonny : now , dante told me that heather webber shot up olivia with lsd ? kate : they still do n't know how -- how much it has affected her yet . sonny : yet . hey , olivia 's tough . she 's gon na get through this , and we 're gon na -- we 're gon na cover everything , all the medical expenses . you know that . whatever needs to -- kate : sonny , dante and olivia are -- are too proud to accept your money . sonny : well , we 'll tell them that you sent the money . kate : [ scoffs ] that would be a tad suspicious considering i 'm unemployed , and it looks like it 's gon na stay that way . sonny : what are you talking about ? kate : todd manning . sonny : what ? kate : [ sighs ] i told him that i was gon na evict him from his brand - new office -- my office -- if he did n't give me back crimson and start publication immediately . sonny : manning did n't go for that ? kate : no , he called my bluff and said that carly would never agree to evict him , and he was right . sonny : well , i thought carly was being polite right now . kate : she 's fine . she does n't have any ill will toward me , but she does n't like that i share her hotel and she would never -- she would never , ever back me against todd manning . so , you know , if there 's another argument that can sway him , i do n't know what it is . [ scene_break ] johnny : i know everything . and if you do n't want anybody else to find out , i suggest you end that call . now . [ scene_break ] carly : i can hear voices . what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] todd : carly . i 'm gon na have to call you back . johnny : smart move . [ scene_break ] carly : well , that was todd , and i could hear people talking , and then he said `` i 'll call you back . `` that 's it . jason : why is todd manning calling you in the first place ? carly : i think he 's in a bad place , you know . his ex - wife came into town . he thought they were getting back together . turns out , she 's engaged to somebody else . jason : and why do you care ? carly : because he 's my friend . jason : he 's -- he 's your friend ? do you know anything about this guy ? carly : okay , i know he 's done some questionable things . jason : questionable ? bernie put together a whole file on him . you want bernie to come over and show you ? carly : i 'm not gon na sit down with bernie and hear all the horrible things -- jason : he 's got a history of violence . and -- and do n't -- do n't say i do , too . carly : i - i was n't going to . jason : this guy has taken hostages . he shot somebody because he pissed him off . carly : maybe he 's different now , okay ? jason : carly , he 's impulsive , and that 's what makes him dangerous . you 're just better off staying away from him . carly : it 's gon na be a little difficult . michael 's dating his daughter . jason : [ sighs ] yeah , i already know . i think that 's a horrible idea . [ scene_break ] michael : hey . i was hoping i 'd find you here . starr : well , today is your lucky day . hi . [ laughs ] what 's up ? michael : i 'm sorry i took off right after breakfast at the metro . i had to get to class . starr : well , yeah . we really did n't get a chance to talk about your dad 's reaction on us dating . michael : look , my dad is usually pretty truthful , so if he says he 's okay with it , i think he is . starr : okay , but my dad is the opposite , and he 's been really great about us , which makes me nervous because it makes me feel like he 's planning something awful . michael : right . [ chuckles ] and then my dad will retaliate , and then next thing you know , a total war , right ? starr : okay , and why are you laughing about this ? it would be a pretty big damper if they shot each other over thanksgiving dinner . michael : starr , i - i think we 're safe . we are . i mean , they -- they 've got their own enemies to worry about . [ scene_break ] johnny : now , sam , she works for you , does n't she ? how do you do it ? how do you look her in the eyes all day , every day knowing what you deliberately did to her and her baby ? todd : i gave her full benefits . johnny : hmm . todd : hey , in this economy . and i think i 'm a reasonable employer . and i hired her even though she has no experience at all as an assistant . johnny : like i said , i know everything . sam 's baby did n't die in that storm . he was perfectly healthy . in fact , his only problem was that you gave him away to somebody else . [ scene_break ] michael : you want to know the truth ? i do n't care what our parents think . nothing can stop us from seeing each other . starr : yeah , when you are n't in class and i 'm not recording my album . michael : i think i can pull myself away from homework for you . starr : no . no , i 'm not going to be the reason you fail out of a class . michael : look , starr , my grades are my responsibility , okay ? and hopefully they 're good . that 'll make it that much easier to get into classes i want this fall . starr : you 're really planning ahead . michael : yeah , well , registration 's next week , and , uh , well , this is the semester where i have to declare a major . it 's time to figure out what i really want for my future . [ scene_break ] carly : look , all i want is for michael to be happy . and when abby died , i was so afraid that he was gon na close himself off and not see the point in anything . but starr makes him happy and excited about the future . jason : carly . carly . carly . he -- he was there the night of the accident . he tried to save starr 's boyfriend and her daughter and he could n't . carly : so you think he feels guilty ? jason : [ sighs ] i think he 's -- i think he 's trying to save her , you know . i think he 's trying to fill the void that was left , you know , in her life , and that 's just not how loss works . you ca n't heal somebody -- carly : you do n't know that . maybe -- jason : maybe what ? carly : maybe starr and michael can heal each other . jason : she 's grieving . you know how easily grief can turn into anger . what if -- what if michael does something to upset her and she goes running to her father ? we could have another face - off with todd and sonny . carly : that 's not gon na happen . jason : because you say so ? carly : i know i have a tendency to see things the way i want them to be , but that 's not what 's going on this time . jason : okay , well , you can see it however you want because part of my job is to protect sonny , and i have to pay attention to anybody who is gunning for him . [ scene_break ] trey : dad , i do n't understand . okay , you said sonny was after your girl , right ? but -- but she chose you . so how -- joe jr. : look , my girl was just part of it . sonny had a dysfunctional family . he saw everything that i had and he decided to take it . my father , my girl , birthright . trey : yeah , but i thought you did n't want any part of my grandfather 's business . joe jr. : i may have had a problem with how my father made his money , but he was still my father . trey : so , you guys were close ? joe jr. : we should have been closer . you know , would have been if it were n't for corinthos . you know , a son wants his father 's love so badly , he 'll turn a blind eye to his failings , even his crimes . [ scene_break ] sam : is there any chance you 're gon na give up `` mob princess `` ? kristina : are you kidding ? i helped come up with the concept . the series is really important to me . besides , it 's -- it 's keeping trey in my life . sam : you really like this guy . kristina : not that it matters . he wants to keep things strictly professional . sam : okay , are you prepared to accept that ? kristina : why would n't i ? kristina : please , this has nothing to do with ethan . sam : are you sure ? kristina : yes . ethan was a stupid crush . i mean , i was in high school . things with trey are completely different . i feel like when we 're together , he understands a part of me that no one sees . sam : sweetie , you barely even know this guy . kristina : it feels like i 've known him forever . i do n't care what dad says . sam : what does sonny say ? kristina : he thinks trey 's keeping a secret . [ scene_break ] trey : it must have been hard loving your father when you did n't agree with him . is that why you did n't want me to know my grandfather was a gangster ? joe jr. : yeah , maybe that was a mistake not to tell you . trey : no , dad , you said it yourself . this is a violent world full of old vendettas , right ? so , if sonny wanted to suck up to your father , wanted to do his dirty work , be the surrogate son , hey , that 's his choice . but you were smart to walk away from it , dad . joe jr. : maybe . the only problem is that sonny walked away with my father 's empire worth millions . [ scene_break ] sonny : if manning does n't want to give you back crimson , you know what i 'm gon na do ? i 'm gon na pay for you to start another magazine . kate : sonny . sonny : mm - hmm . kate : are you kidding me ? sonny : mnh - mnh . kate : that is very gallant of you , but not practical . do -- do you -- launching a new magazine , building up brand recognition -- that is a complicated and arduous task . sonny : you telling me i ca n't hack it ? kate : no , i 'm saying i ca n't do it . sonny : okay , listen to me . kate : i ca n't . sonny : i know , i know , i know . listen , what we should do right now is , we should -- we should go take a little walk , right , right on the water in that place we like , have an early dinner , maybe kiss a little bit , whatever you want to do . you know what i mean ? kate : that is lovely . sonny : okay . kate : thank you , but i ca n't . i have to go see dr. keenan . sonny : how 's that going ? kate : [ sighs ] it 's difficult because i never dealt with it at the time , and so , it 's fresh , you know ? everything is fresh . i have to address all my feelings about the rape and joe jr. and everything . i mean , i 'm making progress , he says . but i still have to face the terrible thing that i did . [ scene_break ] todd : it 's an interesting story . you should write fiction . johnny : too bad it 's all true . todd : to me , it sounds like a bunch of groundless accusations . johnny : okay , let me break it down for you , all right ? this all started the day before that storm hit . and detective falconeri alerted me that anthony 's body had disappeared , which really was a shame because i had worked so hard to plant it in that quartermaine boathouse . todd : so you admit you killed your grandfather . johnny : oh , please , do n't be shocked . do n't pretend to be shocked . you mean to tell me you have n't killed a family member ? todd : well , i have , but i 've been acquitted . you 're still gon na have to stand trial for what you 've done . johnny : and how 's that ? you 're the only one who knows , and i do n't think you 're talking . todd : well , let 's just say remains to be determined . johnny : [ chuckles ] okay . well , maybe you should let me finish my story then you can make your choice , hmm ? naturally , i was concerned as to , well , the whereabouts of anthony 's corpse . [ scene_break ] you were supposed to report back to me as soon as luke and tracy were hauled in . what do you mean , moved ? moved where ? where the hell is anthony 's body ? ! [ scene_break ] my men saw heather webber take off with the body , so they followed her . [ scene_break ] all right . just stay on her . let me know what she does with the corpse . [ scene_break ] and they tailed her pretty close , which was n't easy because it was dumping rain that night . but as luck would have it , heather pulled off onto route 59 , and she actually parked next to the woods . that 's where you come into the story . [ scene_break ] starr : what do you want to do when you graduate ? michael : well , if it was up to my great - grandfather , i 'd be running the family business someday . starr : you used to work for him , right ? michael : yeah . and i was actually pretty good at it . but , uh , that 's edward 's dream , not mine . and i thought i wanted to work for my father . starr : in the coffee business ? michael : well , um , i grew up on the other side of the business . and i understand how it works . and when i first got out of prison , i thought that 's the only place i starr : you 're wrong . michael : yeah , my father agrees with you . he absolutely forbade it , and it actually became a pretty big problem between us . i even tried working for johnny . starr : my johnny ? michael : you refer to johnny zacchara as yours ? starr : well , he is my manager / producer and holds my music career in the palm of his hand , so , yes , my johnny . or more accurately , i 'm his . michael : should i be jealous ? starr : no . you should be telling me whether you want to be a gangster . michael : [ chuckles ] we do n't call itb `` be a gangster . `` we call it , `` join the business . `` starr : okay , michael , do you want to join the business ? michael : i - i - i think i 'd be good at it . i am good at it . i - i - i ... i understand it . i - i know what it means , what it costs . but there 's tradeoffs . if you want money and power , you have to give up your safety ... and sometimes give up love . and that 's not something i want to do . starr : i 'm glad . michael : i do n't know . maybe i 'm -- i 'm -- i was just trying to get my father 's attention . but ... it seems like i 've passed that torch on to kristina . [ scene_break ] kristina : dad does n't have any proof that trey 's hiding some deep , dark secret . he is just being paranoid . sam : no , i - i think the word you 're looking for is `` cautious . `` kristina : dad hated trey ever since he found out we were doing this reality show together . but he does n't even know the first thing about him . sam : well , neither do you , really . i mean , trey is holding back something with his private life or his personal life . kristina : i told you . trey wants to keep things professional . sam : okay . krissy , when a guy does n't share the same feelings -- kristina : oh . he shares my feelings . sam : he does ? kristina : we kissed , and trey said if we were n't working together , he would want to try at a real relationship . sam : okay . simple . then you wait until the show is over . kristina : but i do n't want to wait that long , and i do n't think trey does , either . like , i was so sure he was about to change his mind , and then he just started acting really weird . sam : weird how ? kristina : distant . like , at the reopening of the haunted star , i thought this would be a perfect place to see where this could really go . but then he barely noticed me . sam : did something happen ? kristina : i do n't know . his attitude change started right after the thing with his father . [ scene_break ] trey : you would n't have wanted your father 's dirty money . joe jr. : dirty or not , it 's mine . and yours now . look , i - i always figured that i 'd inherit someday , and when i did , i was gon na try to turn things around for my family . you know , use my father 's money to do good as a way of making up for how he earned it . trey : that -- that would have been great . joe jr. : well , you know , woulda , coulda , shoulda . sonny stole my inheritance . he controls that money now . and he 's as bad as my father ever was . no . sonny 's worse . [ scene_break ] sonny : you need to stop torturing yourself over the accident . it was not your fault . kate : i 'm not talking about the accident . i 'm -- i 'm not talking about anything that connie did . i 'm -- this is about why she existed in the first place . sonny : because joe jr. attacked you . kate : and i had a baby , and i left the baby in a boarding house . and for all i know , he 's dead . sonny : this is why i did n't want you talking to that bastard because he was gon na twist everything around , make -- make you feel guilty for what he did to you . kate : no , because joe jr. blames me for keeping him from his child . sonny : the child would not have existed if he did n't rape you . kate : i still denied him his son . sonny : he does n't deserve to be a father ! and i 'll tell you something else . no kid deserves to be raised by a lowlife pig . [ scene_break ] joe jr. : we ca n't let sonny get away with this , i mean , locking me up in here . i have to get back my legacy , your legacy . trey : but , dad , i do n't -- i just want you to go free , okay ? i do n't care about the money . joe jr. : i love you for that , son . but fathers are supposed to provide for their sons . now , one thing i can promise you , joey , is that once we have what 's ours , you 'll never have to waste your talents on another reality show . trey : well , it has n't been all that bad . joe jr. : when your dream is to be a film director , it 's beneath you . but we 're both gon na get what we want . trey : how ? it all belongs to sonny now . joe jr. : i 'm gon na need your help . [ scene_break ] carly : todd moved to port charles to get a fresh start and to be close to his daughter . the last thing he wants is a feud with sonny . jason : i 'm just saying you 're quick to defend him . carly : 'cause he 's my friend . kind of . jason : just be careful . carly : i 'm not stupid , okay ? i - i 'm not gon na believe everything that todd tells me . i 'm not gon na put my life in his hands . i just think he 's kind of interesting to talk to sometimes . that 's it . jason : i just hope you know what you 're doing , carly . carly : are you gon na forbid me to be friends with todd the way you tried to forbid me to date johnny ? jason : why would i bother ? you do n't listen . carly : i listen . i always listen . i just do n't always take your advice . johnny 's turning his life around . so is todd . jason : well , is that what todd told you ? carly : no . i mean , that 's one of the things i like about him . he always makes himself out to be worse than who he is . he 'll never admit to doing anything nice , and he was absolutely insulted when i mentioned how kind he had been to sam after the baby died . jason : why would todd manning care about sam 's baby ? [ scene_break ] johnny : so , i waited a couple of days for my guys to get back to me with information regarding anthony 's body , and i had to find something to do to busy myself , and that 's when i acquired this place . i needed a fresh start . finally , a few days later , my guys washed up here with information on anthony 's body and his new best friend . [ scene_break ] what the hell happened , you guys , huh ? what did heather do with anthony 's body ? i got to tell it in order or it wo n't make any sense . we followed heather into the woods . johnny : she did n't see you ? no , we kept our distance . the woman left anthony 's body in the car , took off into the woods , and came back with a wheelbarrow . johnny : a wheelbarrow ? she brought the body to some shack . she went inside for supplies , i guess , when some guy runs up with a baby in his arms . [ scene_break ] johnny : imagine that . heather webber running along in the woods alone but with my grandfather 's corpse when a guy with a baby runs up . that would be you . [ scene_break ] and after a while , heather comes out of the shack , wheels anthony away . johnny : and the guy with the baby ? stayed behind , so i sent donnie to follow heather while i waited to see what happened . donnie : heather took the body about 100 yards into the woods , dug a hole , buried it . johnny : and the man with the baby , they -- they were still inside the shack ? donnie : right . and then a woman comes up to the shed . she 's also carrying a baby . moving a little she seemed a little out of it . she stops on the porch , puts the baby in a planting box , rests for a minute , and then goes inside the shed . johnny : wait . she took the baby inside ? donnie : she left the baby in the planting box and went inside alone . [ scene_break ] johnny : you walked out and found sam 's baby . let 's just skip to the fun part , shall we ? so , after awhile , your friend tea -- that 's her name , right ? tea ? -- shows up to this shack , and in her arms , you place sam 's live baby . and a little while after that , heather shows back up , and a little while after that , you and tea walk out of the shack with sam 's live baby . and then heather walks out with a dead infant in her arms , places it in a planter 's box . you stole sam 's live baby , and you replaced it with tea 's dead one . you really gon na deny that ? [ scene_break ] carly : todd 's a father . of course he would understand how much it would hurt to lose a child . he even came to the cemetery the day of the service to pay his respects . jason : did sam see him there ? carly : i do n't know . but clearly she does n't have a problem with it or she would n't have taken the job . jason : whoa , whoa . wait , wait . what -- what job ? carly : you have no idea what 's going on here , do you ? jason : no . what -- what job ? carly : sam is todd 's assistant . jason : assistant ? she 's got a business with spinelli . she 's a p.i . carly : and she did n't feel comfortable working with spinelli because he 's your friend . jason : no , it does n't make any sense , carly . she loves being a p.i . she would n't -- she would n't give it up . carly : what ? what ? jason : unless she 's working a case . carly : why would sam be investigating todd ? [ scene_break ] johnny : so , any thoughts , huh ? or do you need me to run through it again , how you left sam with a dead baby that was n't hers and how you gave away her living one ? todd : it 's an interesting story . johnny : hmm . todd : i do n't think you can prove a word . johnny : it does n't matter . i do n't need to . todd : who -- who you gon na call as a witness , huh ? your employees ? how you going to explain how they were in the woods that night ? johnny : the only one i need to convince is sam . and once i have piqued her curiosity at all , she 's gon na get on a train to llanview , pennsylvania , and check out tea and the baby in person . and while she 's made the trip , well , she might as well get a dna test done , right , to determine the baby 's paternity . todd : tea 's an attorney , right ? johnny : mm - hmm . todd : she 's not gon na let some desperate woman fall out of the sky demanding a dna test on her baby . that 's just not gon na happen . johnny : see , that 's the thing . it 's not her baby . and even though franco 's the real father , i would imagine that sam probably wants her baby back . todd : [ clears throat ] johnny : so , can i use your phone ? i got to call sam . [ scene_break ] sam : why do n't you tell me a little bit more about this thing with trey 's father . kristina : well , trey was really into getting footage of dad 's coffee warehouse . i guess he was hoping he 'd find dad doing something illegal . sam : wait a minute . does sonny know about this ? kristina : he gave his permission , which , of course , means we were n't gon na find anything incriminating . but trey insisted on bringing the cameras . and as soon as we got to the warehouse , he got a call from his dad , and then he ditched the shoot and took off . sam : did he say what the call was about ? kristina : he had n't heard from his dad in a couple days , so i thought when he got it , he 'd be relieved . but it was the opposite . and he 's just been distracted and just kind of distant ever since . sam : kristina , what exactly do you know about trey 's father ? [ scene_break ] trey : okay , dad . i - i - i think we can use this reality show to our advantage . joe jr. : how do you figure ? trey : well , i 'm filming kristina 24/7 , right ? so , total access to her family . what if we use that to get inside sonny 's business ? or -- or hell , maybe even inside that -- that fortress he calls a house . joe jr. : no . trey : but , dad , there 's -- there 's got to be some sort of incriminating evidence there , something that proves sonny 's a criminal . joe jr. : what ? and you 're gon na find it ? even the feds could n't pin anything on corinthos . trey : let me try . joe jr. : no ! now , i appreciate your offer , and i love you for it , son . i truly do . but there 's no way that i would ever let my son spy on someone as lethal as sonny corinthos . [ scene_break ] kate : see , that baby was helpless , sonny . he was a few minutes old . and he was still breathing when i left the room . and now i have no idea what happened after that . sonny : you were sick . you were too traumatized to know what you were doing . kate : circumstances do n't change the fact that i ... i ... brought a living human being into the world and then i left it to die . sonny : why are you punishing yourself by reliving it , asking questions when you do n't -- you do n't know the answer ? kate : because i have to ask questions . that 's the only way that i will acknowledge what i did . where is the baby , sonny ? was i wrong ? [ voice breaking ] did he die when i left the room ? is he out there ... somewhere ? [ scene_break ] joe jr. : there 's another way you can help me get to sonny . [ scene_break ] kate : you know , it comforts me to think that someone found my son ... that some parents raised him and gave him a better life than i could . sonny : it 's possible . kate : [ voice breaking ] no , it 's not possible . i 'm rationalizing so i do n't feel like a murderer . sonny : listen , come here . kate : i 'm sorry . sonny : you have nothing to be sorry about , because -- look at me -- you are not a murderer . you left that baby there because you were young , you were desperate , and you did n't know what else to do . kate : that 's what i 'm working with dr. keenan -- about to live with that -- live with the guilt . because no matter what i tell myself , sonny , deep down , i know he did not survive that because nobody knew he was there . joe jr. was the only one that knew i was pregnant . [ scene_break ] trey : just -- just tell me , dad . i 'll do anything . joe jr. : i have a plan . it involves mob princess . trey : well , that 's -- that 's what i was saying , that we can use the reality show to -- joe jr. : no , i 'm not talking about `` mob princess `` the tv show . i 'm talking about mob princess the person . trey : kristina ? [ scene_break ] kristina : seriously , you think something 's going on with trey 's father , too ? you sound just like dad . sam : no , i 'm just looking at the facts . if trey started acting different after the phone call -- kristina : sam , please . sam : please , what ? kristina : can we just stop the p.i . stuff for like a day ? sam : i am sorry . that 's how my brain works . kristina : well , i 'm not asking you to investigate trey . i 'm asking your advice on how to get him to go out with me . sam : okay . okay . i 'm sorry . all right , you said that trey did n't want to go out with you because of your involvement in the show , right ? kristina : he thinks it 's gon na compromise the integrity of the piece . sam : okay , so it seems like a pretty simple solution . quit . kristina : what ? i - i ca n't quit my own reality show . sam : what are you talking about ? you 've already proven your point to mom and to sonny , and if trey makes you happy , why would n't you quit ? kristina : but the reality show makes trey happy , and , i mean , the job could open a lot of doors for him , and if i take that away from him , he could end up hating me . sam : okay , so what you guys need to do is just be honest with each other . if he 's honest with you , then you 'll be honest with him . kristina : honesty does n't always work . sometimes it makes things worse . sam : ouch . you know what ? you are right . i 'm probably the absolute last person who should be giving any advice about relationships considering the state of my marriage .

lulu : yes . maxie : did he convince dante that he did n't call immigration on levi ? because , lulu , the call came from his cell phone . who else could it have been ? lulu : i do n't know -- maxie : i mean , nathan is obviously trying to ruin levi 's life . he 's trying to sabotage it . lulu : that 's not even what i 'm talking about . maxie : okay , so you do n't believe nathan 's story ? lulu : oh , no , i absolutely do believe his story . maxie : what ? ! lulu : he 's a good guy , maxie . he 's honest , he 's upstanding . maxie : ha . lulu : dante says that he 's e best partner he 's ever had , so if he says he 's telling the truth , i buy it . maxie : unbelievable . you are siding with nathan over me . lulu : you used to have such good instincts . where did they go ? maxie : what does that even mean ? lulu : what does it mean ? it means that i think you 're lying to yourself when it comes to nathan . maxie : oh . this should be good . lulu : you do n't hate him . maxie : i do n't ? lulu : no . you have feelings for him . nathan : anyways , look , i 'm -- i 'm sorry for coming by so late . i just wanted to make sure you were okay . nina : did i say something to upset you , j ? nathan : no , no , no , no . nothing like that . nina : oh . i 'm still your big sister . you are obligated to tell me what 's going on with you . nathan : there 's nothing going on . nina : you 're a liar . i could always tell when you were hurting because you touch your eyebrow . and you still do it the same way you did when you were little . what is it ? nathan : you got enough to deal with . nina : oh , no , please . please talk to me . i mean , you would actually be helping me . you would be giving me something else to focus on than myself for a change . please . i want to help you . nathan : i do n't think you can . nina : try me . nathan : my roommate 's getting married . nina : and i take it this is n't a good thing ?

[ scene_break ] carly : okay . just relax , all right ? lainey did n't share any gory details . she said you were having a rough time in therapy . it does n't come as a surprise -- you 're digging up some tough stuff , sonny . sonny : and part of that was about you . i did n't treat you well at times . carly : hey -- sonny : what ? what -- carly : it was mutual , okay ? sonny : not really . couples have a -- they have a -- an edit button that they push before they say truthful things or they , you know , get mad , walk out , you know , or -- or turn it into angry sex . carly : wait a minute . you 're not telling me that you shared that with lainey , are you ? sonny : that 's the whole -- yeah , well , that 's the whole point . you know , you keep digging , you stay open -- carly : how much did you tell her ? sonny : it does n't really matter . i mean -- carly : yes , it does ! sonny : no , it does n't . i -- carly : how much did you tell her ? sonny : i told her enough . i mean , i 'm sure you and lainey have sat in the -- that office and talked about us , right ? carly : we talked about the stuff that was going on at the time . i approached it in a very general way -- you know , a big overview . sonny : well , maybe you should go back for a couple of sessions . carly : oh , my god . okay , so tell me -- how mortified am i supposed to be when i see lainey ? how much did you tell her ? sonny : ah -- i told her , like , we fight and then it turns into other things . carly : that we 're screaming and yelling at each other one minute and then ripping our clothes off the next ? sonny : yeah , and it was spectacular , the sex , and -- no , i mean -- carly : oh , that 's great . sonny : i mean , most of the time , it was . carly : that 's great . sonny : and then , lainey -- lainey knows pretty much all of it . carly : that 's great , sonny . sonny : what are you supposed to do when you 're in an office with a therapist ? you got to tell the truth , right ? carly : sometimes discretion is the better part of valor . sonny : what the hell does that mean ? carly : lainey must think i 'm a masochist . i married you three times . sonny : maybe you are . carly : okay , did you at least balance it out with something nice ? sonny : `` nice `` ? carly : did you tell her about the times we were wonderful with each other ? sonny : name -- name one time when i was wonderful to you . [ scene_break ] jason : i mean , i knew something was wrong with sonny but i did n't -- i did n't feel right about stepping in . sonny breaking down was the reason i did n't want emily with him in the first place , and then to , you know , step in and help seemed very hypocritical . and i was really afraid that he would n't trust me the way he did before and , you know , it really could 've messed things up and then manny grabbed you . and my whole focus shifted to getting you back . you know , and sonny was well into his breakdown , he needed help , so that 's why i went to carly . sam : sonny needed you and you chose to look for me . jason : it was n't a choice . it was necessary , like breathing . sam : there 's always a choice . jason , you could 've given this to the police . you could 've thrown it in my mother 's lap . sonny is your oldest , dearest friend . he was coming apart at the seams . jason : you needed me more . sam : that has n't changed , you know . i have ... [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . patrick : hey . elizabeth : thanks for meeting me here . patrick : of course . elizabeth : i know you 're dealing with a lot right now , so if you 're just here to be polite , you 're totally off the hook . patrick : the fact that i 'm at risk for contracting hiv 's exactly why i could use a distraction . i 'm assuming this is about lucky . elizabeth : do you remember when you implied once that lucky might have a drug problem ? i think you might have been right . patrick : what happened ? elizabeth : i found a bottle of pills in his pocket . it was by complete accident . i was n't even looking for them . i -- i had n't even suspected anything . patrick : did n't you say that lucky threw away the rest of his pills ? elizabeth : yes , he did , weeks ago into the harbor as a grand symbolic gesture , but , obviously , he had another source . i 'm afraid that lucky might be the person who 's stealing the meds . [ scene_break ] lucky : you know what ? nothing elizabeth does surprises me anymore , but i thought you were above this high school garbage ! emily : what are you talking about ? lucky : do n't cover for her ! i know elizabeth sent you down here to spy on me ! emily : i just came here from wyndemere . i had no idea that you were going to be here . what in the world is wrong with you ? lucky : i needed elizabeth . i confided in her for the first time and about something very important , and was she there for me ? hell , no . elizabeth just jumped all over me . you know what ? sometimes i do n't even know why i married her . emily : hey , look , i do n't know what 's going on between you and elizabeth , but when someone you love is in trouble , when you 're upset and emotional , things do n't always come out the way you intend . instead of indulging your feelings and letting them morph into anger , maybe you should think about where elizabeth is coming from and why . because i promise you , lucky , whatever she said , however it sounded in the moment , came from a place of love . you say that you needed elizabeth ? then do n't be a fool and push her away . [ scene_break ] robert : look , it 's clear you have good intentions towards the child and you want to be a good dad . but you should 've thought about that before you resumed your wicked , wicked ways . skye : my feelings about your business have never been anything i 've ever tried to hide . your world is too dangerous for a child . robert : i can attest to the fact because i 've been in a similar situation , but if you do n't put the child first , you live to regret it . lorenzo : i do n't recall asking for your advice . robert : ah , yeah , but i -- i know you 'd do the same for me . look , skye here 's got the interest of the child -- it 's safe and its well - being -- first . you should do well to take a leaf from that book instead of acting like a petulant child that 's about to lose its favorite toy . lorenzo : you speak as if you know something about me . you know nothing . i have a son . i was n't there when he was born . i did n't raise him . i barely know him . now , i 'm not going to let that happen again . i will do whatever i have to , pay whatever it takes . and , skye , it will be with my deepest regret , but i will go to the ends of the earth to be with this child . robert : we 've had enough intimidation for one day . you 've got an appointment . lorenzo : well , then you wo n't mind if i tag along . [ scene_break ] carly : one of the many times you were wonderful to me , the best you 've ever been , was when i went through my breakdown . sonny : well , it 's the least i can do . i mean , i pretty much caused it . carly : are we back to that again ? you did n't cause my breakdown , sonny . talk to lainey . i made choices , i made a long series of choices . and it backed me into an emotional corner . i used up my reserve and i cracked . sonny : are you ever afraid it 's going to happen again ? carly : i 'm terrified it 's going to happen again . that 's why i am trying so hard to live in a very self - conscious way . i 'm trying to recognize my flash points , see everything coming so it does n't blow up in front of my face . i 'm trying to avoid disaster at all costs . that 's what i 'm trying to do . sonny : you 're doing good . no , i 'm serious . i mean , jax left . you did n't spin out and do something stupid , unless i missed it . carly : i got by with a little help from a friend . you know , i -- i recognized the pattern , i tried to avoid it . i hope i did . sonny : that 's kind of cryptic . carly : that 's all you 're getting . sonny : you know , we -- we 've seen each other through a lot . carly : it was n't all bad . do you remember when we lost our baby ? sonny : yeah , that 's a laugh riot . carly : it was you at your best . [ music plays ] carly : yeah , you were dealing with your own pain . but you took care of me instead . you took me to the island -- do you remember that ? it 's so quiet here . the stars are so close . sonny : no light pollution . carly : that means street lights , right ? traffic , television , all the stuff we do to fill up the dark so we can push the stars away . sonny : when i first moved here , i -- i could n't stand it because it was so quiet that i spent time in the casino just , you know , so i 'd -- i 'd get myself so tired that i would sleep . and then i would and i -- i hated to dream . so i switched to fishing . carly : i can not see you fishing . sonny : no , i was good at it -- kind of , you know ? the boats would go out . i 'd go with the crew . have you ever pulled a net out of the water ? your back strains , you get -- you know , your hands get shredded , but i 'll tell you what . it 's -- it gets you real , real tired . and the best part is -- the stars and the water and , you know , how they 're connected . so i started -- i started swimming at night . i 'd go all the way out there , as far as i could , you know ? and my arms would get -- would get tired and i 'd have to swim back . and then to rest , i 'd put my head up , lay back on the water , look at the stars . and i 'd finally get to shore and i 'd sleep without any dreams . carly : is that why you brought me here ? so i 'd stop dreaming about our baby ? sonny : yeah , that 's why . carly : oh . how 'd you get so wise ? sonny : the only thing i know about loss is how much i hate it . you ca n't fight it . it does n't do any good to be angry , it does n't do any good to hurt yourself . all you 're going to do is what the people you love would want you to do . let 's say if our baby had been born , if he 'd been , he 'd about what -- 6 years old ? 20 years old when he died ? what do you think he would 've wanted for you ? carly : for me to be happy ; for me to love his brother ; to help his daddy . sonny : we owe him that , right , to help each other ? [ carly sighs ] carly : do you think there 's a heaven ? sonny : well , it 's hard to look at the stars and just -- and think this is just a coincidence , you know ? carly : and our baby 's up there , right ? he 's happy ? he 's -- sonny : god is n't cruel . you said that to me once . and you were right . singer : looking for something more carly : do you think our son sees us helping each other ? do you think he knows that he gave that to us ? sonny : he knows . carly : that 's when i knew i loved you .

[ scene_break ] carly : well , we both know it 's hard to figure out the difference between love and dependency . and somewhere i crossed the line and i started living my life for you . sonny : the thing is , sometimes the line gets blurred once you 're in the thick of it with someone . and you -- it 's easier to see it when you 're on the outside looking in . people can tell you what they want to tell you . it 's -- you 're asking for trouble . but you start justifying it , and you -- the dysfunction starts to feel like home . and you do n't want to be alone . at least , i do n't , because as you know , being alone is one of my greatest fears . i 'm just curious -- do you think -- i do n't know -- i mean , it 's like -- you think that 's why i connected with -- with emily ? i mean , nobody was around . she was here , and it was -- it was easy ? carly : only you can answer that . sonny : i know , i know . you were against it from -- from the start . were you a little jealous maybe or were you convinced that i was going to have a breakdown ? carly : it was both . i was n't at the place where i believed that we were over . but i was afraid that you were going to slide back into darkness , and i knew that emily could n't handle that . but since we 're putting the cards on the table -- you knew it , too . did n't you ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : lucky came home early . he had some problems at work . and i went to comfort him , and i put my arms around him . and that 's when i found the bottle in his back pocket . and i asked him if he had continued to take these pills , and he completely freaked out on me -- and then accused me of setting him up . i tried to reason with him , but he did n't want to hear it . he just slammed out . i have never seen lucky get so mad so fast . and it was extremely manipulative . i mean , he used his anger to put me on the defensive and to distract me , so that i could n't get any more answers . patrick : that would be consistent with someone who 's developing a dependency . want my advice ? elizabeth : yes , please . patrick : you 're lucky 's wife . talk to him . listen to him with the ears of a woman who knows and loves him more than anybody in the world . you 'll get a lot of double talk , a lot of false promises , but do n't buy into it . lucky 's going to need to go to rehab . you got to try and get him there . but there 's only so much you can do . elizabeth : oh -- patrick : lucky has to want to get clean . another thing -- make sure you have a support system . if that means getting into a group , then do it . you 're going to need all the help you can get . elizabeth : i feel so guilty . like somehow , this is my fault . patrick : elizabeth , listen . you 're falling into the biggest trap . you are not responsible for this . lucky makes his own choices . elizabeth : thanks for hearing me out . patrick : well , i hope it helped . you know , you can come to me anytime . elizabeth : i might make you sorry you said that . patrick : not a chance .

[ scene_break ] lulu : where do you get off warning maxie about me and coop ? logan : she is dating the guy . i figure she has a right to know that her boyfriend 's messing around on her . lulu : oh , please , this has nothing to do with maxie . you 're just pissed at coop for warning me about you , and so you 're trying to get even by telling maxie that something 's going on between us ? logan : looks like i was n't far off . you were just up in the guy 's room , were n't you ? lulu : and if i was , how is that any of your business ? logan : oh , come on , lulu , the guy is playing with you . lulu : ha -- that 's actually funny coming from you . logan : what is that supposed to mean ? lulu : you have been playing me from day one -- acting like god 's gift one day , and then the next day some poor , misunderstood vet , and i actually almost bought it . i wanted to believe that underneath all that attitude was a decent guy worth getting to know , and then you go and pull something like this ? why ? do you want me to hate you , because it 's actually working . [ scene_break ] kate : who called you as a witness ? carly : no one -- i volunteered . elizabeth : you ca n't do that . carly : i do n't care . after what sam did to jason , he needs someone in that courtroom who cares and loves him . [ elizabeth snickers ] kate : well , and that person would be you ? carly : yes , it is . elizabeth : well , there 's nothing you can do . carly : yeah , you would think that . you would , because you 're passive . you never put yourself on the line for jason , even though he 's done it for you a thousand times . jason and i are different . he needs me , and i 'm here . elizabeth : yeah , well , that 's real smart , carly . scheme your way into a courtroom -- that 's going to help . kate : you ca n't just waltz up to the stand claiming you 're a witness . you have to be on the guard 's list . [ door opens ] officer : ma'am , i 'm going to need to see a copy of your subpoena . [ scene_break ] diane : the district attorney is trying to imply guilt by inundating this jury with images of my client firing a gun . he 's insulting their intelligence and wasting this court 's time . we have all seen the so - called evidence . can we please move on ? ric : what the jury saw , ms. miller , was a terrifying blur -- things were happening so fast that there was n't time to react . the reason for showing the tape in slow - motion was to see how mr. morgan reacted , and that is with the precision of a cold - blooded killer . diane : objection . your honor , my client was obviously acting in self - defense , and the district attorney is well aware that no charges have been brought to indicate otherwise . as i have pointed out to this court , my client was in police custody , handcuffed and shackled at the time that this attempt was made on his life . ric : the tape speaks to the ability of the defendant to carry out the crime that he is on trial for , your honor . judge : i 'll allow it . [ gunfire ] [ gunfire ] ric : that 's the last image lorenzo alcazar can remember -- jason morgan firing a gun . diane : objection ! judge : sustained . strike that from the record . mr. lansing , you know better than to address the jury . ric : your honor , the state calls to the stand mrs. elizabeth spencer . [ scene_break ] logan : i ai n't the one working you here . lulu : right -- coop is . logan : why do you think he keeps feeding you all that garbage about how dangerous i am ? lulu : maybe because coop 's a decent guy who does n't want to see me get hurt . logan : are you really that blind ? all right , coop likes you , okay ? he saw us getting close and he did n't like it , so he tried to scare you off . why do you think he keeps telling you about this supposed -- horrible thing i did over in iraq ? lulu : well , judging how you just attacked coop , i would say it was more than something you `` supposedly did . `` logan : you know what ? i was not going to stand there and let the guy trash me . you 're the one good thing that i 've got -- lulu : oh , god , save the act . i do n't believe a word you say . logan : because of coop ? lulu , the guy just wants you all to himself . lulu : oh , great -- let 's settle this once and for all . logan thinks that you have a thing for me -- is that true ? coop : i 'm with maxie . lulu : i told you . logan : okay , do you honestly expect him to admit his feelings for you when his girlfriend 's standing right behind him , hmm ? coop : we need to talk -- alone . [ scene_break ] judge : i think we 've all seen enough for one day . court resumes at 10 : 00 tomorrow . the jury is dismissed until then . bailiff : all rise . court is now adjourned . mayor floyd : so far , so good . ric : trust me ; it only gets better from here . mayor floyd : you were right about the ambush tape -- after the jurors saw it , they were looking at morgan like he belongs in a cage . ric : he does . mayor floyd : well , do n't get overconfident . and you might want to rethink calling lucky spencer 's wife as a witness . she used to be your wife , too , did n't she ? ric : you know she was . mayor floyd : then why muddy the waters by risking a conflict - of - interest allegation ? ric : elizabeth is going to give me what i need to convict jason . [ scene_break ] diane : do you have to be so good at your job ? ric did a lot of damage with that footage . he wanted to paint you as a cold - blooded killer , and your actions on that tape just proved his point . jason : what was i supposed to do , let them kill me ? diane : no , of course not , jason . look , i can argue that you were acting in self - defense till i am blue in the face , but it is not going to erase what that jury just saw . and they saw you -- not scared . they saw you calm and focused and lethal . and it just validates the d.a . 's allegation that you are a professional killer . [ diane sighs ] jason : what are my chances ? diane : yeah , well , considering the evidence that lansing has in reserve , i 'd say we need all the help we can get . [ scene_break ] carly : it 's in here somewhere . officer : hmm . ma'am , you ca n't be in the witness room without a subpoena . until you find it , you 're going to have to wait in the hall . second officer : court 's been adjourned for the day . the witnesses can go home . kate : oh , it 's about time . officer : all of you need to report back first thing in the morning . bring your subpoena , or you wo n't be allowed in . carly : not a problem . kate : if you say so . [ scene_break ] carly : just a peek . let me in for five minutes . how 'd it go ? diane : ahem . ric lansing had a strong case before this trial even started . the footage that he just played of jason shooting those three men who ambushed him outside the pcpd just improved it . carly : so it 's bad ? diane : to be honest with you , as an attorney , i can not imagine being in a worse position . and i just tried to tell jason that , and he showed very little reaction . carly : jason needs me . diane : i 'm sorry , carly , but that 's impossible . carly : you -- diane : the judge has closed the trial to the public . carly : can you call me as a witness ? that 's the only way to get me in that courtroom . [ scene_break ] officer : you 're free to go , ma'am . court 's adjourned until tomorrow . elizabeth : i know . i just needed some time alone , it helps me think . [ scene_break ] spinelli : ah -- lucky : the desk sergeant said you wanted to speak to a detective ? spinelli : yes . um , i have information on the murder of lorenzo alcazar . lucky : okay , let 's hear it . spinelli : stone cold did n't do it . lucky : can you back that up ? spinelli : well , as a former employee , i can attest that evil al is a -- a denizen of darkness with legions of evildoers who would 've been happy to pull the trigger . lucky : okay , can you provide jason with an alibi during the time of the murder ? spinelli : well , i -- i was n't with stone cold at that exact moment , but that does n't mean -- lucky : unless you can provide jason with an alibi during the time of the murder , there 's nothing else you can do . spinelli : look , stone cold does n't deserve to be locked up for life . lucky : jason has got the best lawyer money can buy . spinelli : yeah , and -- and few that he can trust to stand up for him in court . i mean , even fair samantha turned her back on him . the jackal will not rest until stone cold has secured his freedom . lucky : do you want to help jason ? spinelli : more than anything . lucky : yeah ? then let his lawyer do their job and stay out of it . you ca n't even be involved in this . spinelli : what is wrong with you ? why wo n't you help the guy that gave you your son ? [ scene_break ] coop : what is wrong with you , saying all that stuff about me and lulu , while maxie 's standing right there ? logan : i 'm just returning the favor , pal . you want me to lay off , stop trying to scare lulu away from me . coop : i told you to leave lulu alone . logan : who the hell are you to tell me to do anything ? coop : somebody who does n't want to see lulu get hurt . logan : hey , i would never hurt her . coop : yeah , that 's what you say now , and then something happens and you lose it . all right , i know what you 're capable of , logan . i saw you in iraq . logan : listen to me , okay ? that has nothing to do with this . coop : sure it does , if only because you 're still mad at yourself . all right , do n't take it out on lulu spencer . logan : i would never do anything to that girl . i care a lot about her . she 's one of the first people i found that i can actually be myself around . coop : if you really cared about her , you 'd tell her what happened over there . let her decide if she still wants to be with you . [ scene_break ] jerry : well , well , well . i was n't expecting to see you in port charles . man : this meeting is n't about what you expect . it 's about what i need you to deliver . [ scene_break ] diane : carly , i 'm sorry , but there is no way i am going to call you as a witness . carly : you have got to counteract sam 's testimony . i know jason better than anyone . i should be on that stand telling the jury what kind of person he is . diane : look , i appreciate you wanting to help a friend , but your testimony could do much more harm than good . carly : we go beyond friends , okay ? i do n't know how to explain it to you , but i 'm connected to jason in ways i 've never been to anyone else . that 's how i know right now he needs me . diane : jason is handling this remarkably well . he 's not angry , he 's not frustrated . on the contrary , he seems to -- carly : he 's shutting down inside , okay ? he 's trying to make himself feel dead inside so he can deal with being locked up . do n't tell me that you are buying into ric 's crap that he 's feeding the jury ? jason feels things deeper than anyone i know , okay ? he 's just not showing it , and right now he 's feeling alone . he needs someone who loves him and believes in him . i 'm asking you to let it be me . [ scene_break ] lucky : i will always be grateful to jason that he brought jake back home . spinelli : no offense , dude , but you have a seriously messed - up way of showing it . i mean , the guy saved your son , okay , and -- and your thanks is to haul him away in handcuffs ? lucky : okay , i arrested jason because it was my duty . spinelli : the d.a . of darkness has an agenda , okay ? with stone cold out of the way , mr. corinthos , sir is that much more vulnerable . lucky : okay , the bottom line is that jason broke the law . there 's nothing you or i can do about it . spinelli : i worked for evil al , and then he tried to kill me -- the dude is seriously lethal . i hated him , i `` hated `` him , and you did n't investigate me -- nor the other legions of evildoers that would want to kill him , as well -- like covert - ops type people that can order his termination from the luxury of their yacht . lucky : okay , if the jury finds jason guilty , you ca n't do anything to change it ! spinelli : ah . stone cold ? i , the jackal , am here to testify on your behalf . lucky : i 'm going to let you try to explain to him why that 's a bad idea . [ door closes ] spinelli : look , dude , i -- i know this is hard for you , okay ? jason : i -- i 've been in lockup before . spinelli : no , no , no , no . i 'm talking about fair elizabeth 's spouse . i mean , the dude is walking around oblivious to the fact that he 's been entrusted with your most precious progeny . you know , perhaps lucky would be more keen to secure your freedom if he -- if he knew the truth . [ scene_break ] lulu : elizabeth ? what are you doing here ? elizabeth : i 'm just trying to figure some things out . lulu : how 's that going for you ? elizabeth : i 'm still working on it . what are you doing here in the courthouse ? lulu : um , i was looking for lucky -- i -- i need a favor . elizabeth : oh . well , is there something i can do for you ? lulu : huh -- not unless you can pull someone 's military record ? elizabeth : is this about that logan guy ? lulu : how do you know about logan ? elizabeth : nikolas came to the hospital . he had mentioned that logan was n't the type of guy you should be seeing . lulu : okay , i 'm not seeing logan . we had one date -- technically , half a date -- and that 's probably all that we 're ever going to have . so nikolas can just relax and mind his own business . elizabeth : well , he 's always going to worry about you , lulu . lulu : well , it 's not just nikolas . one of logan 's old army buddies came up to me and warned me about him , saying there was a lot i did n't know about him . elizabeth : hmm . well , i 'm sure lucky will be more than willing to help you . he probably could use a distraction right now . he 's so uptight . i mean , with the whole jake 's kidnapping , and then jason 's trial -- it 's really hard not to think about it , much less objectively . after everything that jason has done for us , i do n't know how i 'm going to get up on that stand and testify against him . lulu : it 's probably not going to be as bad as you think . i mean , i would n't worry about it . nothing 's going to come out in court . elizabeth : what do you mean ? [ scene_break ] ric : lucky , hey , just the man i wanted to see . lucky : why is that ? ric : well , i want to talk to you about elizabeth 's testimony . believe me ; if i did n't think i needed it to secure a conviction , i would 've never had her subpoenaed . lucky : i do n't see why putting elizabeth on the stand is going to help you win your case . ric : well , i would think that you , of all people , would understand what i 'm up against here . jason has subverted the law for years , and i want to change all of that . lucky : yeah , i just do n't want it to come at elizabeth 's expense . ric : i 'm not going to put elizabeth up on that stand and grill her . but the fact remains she is the last person that we know of to have seen jason before lorenzo alcazar was murdered . lucky : for five minutes when he stopped by her room at the hospital . ric : at which time he received a phone call -- presumably from sonny -- ordering the hit on alcazar . look , i need to question elizabeth in order to establish a chain of events for the jury . all she has to do is get up on the stand and tell the truth . believe me ; it 'll be over before elizabeth knows it . [ scene_break ] lulu : ric wants the jury to think that jason 's some kind of cold , heartless monster , right ? but the minute that you get on that stand , you 're going to blow that image apart . think about it -- how many times has jason saved your life , not to mention jake 's ? three ? more ? he 's not going to give you the chance to make jason look like some kind of hero in front of the jury , so , you know , if anything , he 'll probably have you up there long enough to answer one , maybe two questions . elizabeth : yeah . yeah , ric -- he did say that my testimony was going to be used mainly to establish that jason was in my hospital room when he got the phone call , so maybe you 're right . and ric knows how i feel about jason , so why -- why keep me on the stand any longer than he has to ? i 'm just going to get up there , confirm that jason got the phone call , and -- yeah , it 'll all be over . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i -- i know you gave up baby jake martin in respect to fair elizabeth 's wishes , but do n't -- do n't you think it would be better for everyone if the truth came out now rather than later ? jason : the longer this trial goes on , the more i know i can never -- i can never claim jake . spinelli : why does the jackal get the feeling you 're giving up ? jason : things did n't go really well today . spinelli : that 's why you 're determined on keeping the secret , right ? you think you 're going to be convicted , and you do n't want baby jake to know that his father 's incarcerated . jason : i do n't want jake to hear his father described the way i was in the courtroom today , or grow up feeling ashamed or afraid of me . spinelli : oh -- baby jake would be proud to have you as a father . and , yes , some of your -- some of the aspects of your chosen career path are a bit dangerous , but , i mean , you would never do anything to put the small stone cold one -- jason : i do n't want my son to get caught in the crossfire the next time somebody decides to try and take me out , okay ? [ scene_break ] marty : oh , good . look , we 've got a problem . the charity guild just called to verify the -- carly : who 's that guy ? marty : the man with mr. jacks ' brother ? carly : is he a guest here in the hotel ? marty : not that i 'm aware of . why ? carly : has he been talking to him long ? marty : just a couple of minutes , if you want me to call security -- - carly : where 's my husband ? carly : tell me where i can find jax . i need to know that my husband is all right . jerry : i can assure you that things will be handled in exactly the same way that we discussed . if you 'll excuse us -- carly : do you know who i am ? i 'm carly corinthos -- does that name ring a bell ? because if anything happens to jax , you 're going to pay . do you understand -- you are going to pay . jerry : yes , yes , yes , that 's right , darling . why do n't come with me here ? yes . do you know what ? it would be a shame if jax came back from his little trip to find that his blushing bride was prematurely `` dead . `` carly : i 'm not afraid of that man . jerry : a bit of advice -- know who you 're dealing with before you start making threats . carly : well , how am i supposed to do that , because you wo n't tell me anything , and you will not bring my husband home ! jerry : and you running your mouth wo n't bring him back any sooner , nor will it make you safe . i mean , i 'm amazed that you have managed to live so long -- you 're nuts ! carly : who is that man ? jerry : no one you need to know about . understood ? good . [ scene_break ] irina : sorry to keep you waiting . i had to go on deck to discuss a change of course with the captain -- it 's imperative for us to stay on the move . i would n't want anyone to interfere with our operations or my plans for you . jax : so how do you know my brother ? irina : there was a time when -- jerry and i were as close as two people can be . i 've heard a lot about you , jax . needless to say , i was thrilled to discover that jerry arranged for you to show up in this part of the world . jax : so jerry does n't know that i 'm here ? irina : you thought he might somehow be involved in all this ? that speaks volumes about your relationship . jax : look , whatever you 've got planned for me , i can double your profits -- as soon as you let me go irina : as i said , i 'm not interested in money . jax : everybody 's interested in money . irina : not only money , then . irina : you know , you 're far better looking than your brother , and you have more stamina than i would ever imagine . but then again , so did jerry . i wonder -- are you better in bed than your brother was ? jax : well , that 's something only you can judge . [ scene_break ] [ phone rings ] jerry : yes ? what happened ? god ! agh ! find him ! no matter what you do , make sure my brother is alive and safe , you idiot ! idiot ! [ scene_break ] spinelli : yeah , you -- you want the innocent one to be safe , of -- of course . but , you know , what if there 's a way that you could be a part of your son 's life and not put him in peril ? jason : there 's not . spinelli : okay , remaining a trusted family friend , right ? i mean , you could -- you could be there to -- to witness your progeny 's milestones , and i 'm sure that the blond one would happily assist you . i mean , she is baby jake 's aunt and also privy to the truth -- jason : no , i want you to leave lulu out of this , spinelli . spinelli : no , i think she would want you to participate , to be there to support jake 's choices -- good and bad -- and also , you know , impart pearls of stone cold wisdom along -- along the way . come on , is n't it better to have some part in your son 's life rather than none at all ? jason : you officer : time 's up . the d.a . needs to speak with the prisoner . ric : if you 'll excuse us , mr. spinelli , mr. morgan and i have some business to discuss . spinelli : you know , you will be consumed by darkness in the end . i mean , you are already an orc and soon - to - be gollum -- or much worse . ric : get out of here . ric : today was just a little taste of what i got in store for you . you cooperate , or tomorrow when elizabeth gets on that stand to testify , she 's going to have to admit some rather unhappy truths . [ scene_break ] jerry : what did i tell you ? i told you to keep an eye on my brother . i told you to follow jax and make sure he was safe . was that so hard to do ? now you tell me that you 've lost him , and this is the first time i hear about i if i do not find my brother very soon , you will wish that you had never been born . do i make myself clear , you imbecile ? [ pounding on door ] jerry : yes ! [ pounding ] jerry : what ? carly : this is my hotel . my hotel , which means i get to know who 's doing business here . what happened ? jerry : what do you think happened -- the lamp broke . carly : i can see the lamp broke . what 's going on here ? is this about jax ? jerry : no , actually , it 's about your precious little jason . carly : did you find a way to help him ? jerry : that 's what you wanted , is n't it -- the price of your friendship ? i mean , it would be a lot easier if you did n't have these angry outbursts and ill - timed interruptions such as now . carly : i want you to help jason , but i need to know if jax is okay . jerry : he 's fine . there is nothing to worry about my brother . i promise . [ scene_break ] irina : if you 're half as good as your brother is in bed , this could turn out to be an enjoyable afternoon . jax : well , unfortunately , we 'll never know . irina : why is that ? jax : because i 'm a happily married man who does n't cheat on his wife . irina : it 's only cheating if you get caught . jax : thanks for the offer , but i 'll have to pass . irina : how can such a decent , loyal man like you be related to such an uncaring bastard like jerry ? jax : i take it things did n't end too well between you and my brother , huh ? irina : you might say that . jax : and that 's why i 'm here , is n't it , because you 're still holding a grudge ? irina : very perceptive . irina : i 'm going to enjoy having you here -- at least until your brother arrives . then we 'll have to get down to business . jax : yeah . and what is that , exactly ? irina : i 'm going to kill you while jerry watches . [ scene_break ] maxie : coop -- please wait , i need to talk to you . coop : what ? maxie : i 'm sorry about how i flipped out in your room before . lulu just drives me crazy sometimes -- okay , all the time -- and when i saw her with you , i just lost it . look , i do n't know what it is about lulu that sucks guys in , but i do n't want that to happen with you . just promise me you 're not going to fall for lulu . coop : do n't you have any faith in me at all ? i am with you because i care about you , maxie . now , if that changed for any reason , i would tell you . maxie : i know -- i know that -- at least , i thought i did . coop : well , you trust me or you do n't . maxie : of course i trust you . it 's just sometimes i do n't trust myself .

[ lulu sighs ] spinelli : okay , um , stone cold -- stone cold gave up baby jake for his safety . if -- if the truth comes out -- lulu : i know , this is a disaster -- lucky ca n't find out in the middle of the courtroom that jason is jake 's real father . [ scene_break ] lucky : elizabeth , are you all right ? elizabeth : oh , yeah . yeah , i 'm just sitting here thinking . lucky : about what ? [ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : about my testimony . lucky : i -- i ran into ric earlier . elizabeth : well , did he tell you why he 's calling me as a witness when i do n't know a thing about alcazar 's murder ? lucky : he said that if you testify that jason got a call right before alcazar got killed , that he will try to convince the jury that it was most likely sonny who ordered the hit . elizabeth : i do n't know who was on the phone . jason picked up , he hung up , told me had to go , that was it . that 's all i know . lucky : okay , then you tell him that , then you get out of it . jason 's fate is in the jury 's hands , not yours . [ scene_break ] ric : this is a one - time deal . if you plead out to second - degree murder , you can end this right now . you 'll serve 20 years without parole , but you will save elizabeth the pain of having to testify against you . so i guess you got to ask yourself a question . what 's more important to you -- your freedom , or elizabeth 's peace of mind ? now , you think about that , jason . because if i get elizabeth up on that stand , i am going to ask her about the nature of her relationship with you . and since she 's already been sworn in under oath , she 's going to have to admit that the two of you were lovers , and while i 'm there , i might as well go all the way and ask if little jacob martin -- interesting choice in initials , by the way . i will have to ask elizabeth under oath if little jacob martin spencer is really your son . [ next_on ] jax : you 're going to kill me ? irina : but not until your brother arrives . jerry : i 'm glad you showed up , because i need your assistance . kate : i did n't realize you had been called to testify . sam : i am going to wreck elizabeth 's life . bailiff : do you swear to tell the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth

[ scene_break ] nadine : yeah , i 've been hearing that my whole life . i remind people of their sister . it 's just so condescending and unimaginative , and coming from someone who already is those things , it makes it worse . nikolas : unimaginative ? look , what i said to you was meant to be a compliment . nadine : `` almost like a sister `` is not a compliment . it implies that i 'm not your equal . it implies that i 'm not even a woman . nikolas : nadine , i 'm your employer . what do you -- what do you want me to say ? nadine : so -- so i guess that means you ca n't take me seriously ? nikolas : no , that 's not it . nadine : well , guess what ? you do n't just get to -- to dish out orders and expect me to fall in line , okay ? because i -- i am a grown woman . nikolas : i know -- nadine : and i am most certainly not your sister , okay ? nikolas : okay , okay . nadine : so i want to go undercover or -- or put my life at risk or go dancing down main street , i am damn well going to do it . nikolas : okay . nadine : and do n't you dare say you think i 'm cute .

[ scene_break ] patrick : whether you meant to or not , you have -- noah : what 's going on ? anna : your son is giving eli some much - needed enlightenment . eli : talking about -- trish knew the deal going in . i mean she -- she was n't waiting in the back of the tour bus with me because she thought i 'd make a good father . patrick : you helped create another person , and there 's no escaping that , and that person has a right to expect certain things from you . you can and should expect certain things from yourself , like getting to know who he is , figuring out what he likes , what he needs , expecting something of yourself . and i know it takes time out of your glamorous , fast - living lifestyle , but there 's a reward in it . raising a child is a privilege , and the fact that you 're running away , abandoning your son , it 's a direct insult to the other guy who 's trying to do the right thing . you 're exactly what women hate about men . [ scene_break ] lourdes : i knocked , and when no one answered , i figured no one was here . i was just going to leave a note , and -- awkward . lulu : i did n't realize that you had a key . lourdes : yeah , i used to come up and water professor siegel 's plants . i am really sorry . johnny : so you were going to leave a note ? lourdes : yeah , sal needs help with the compressor in the truck , so -- whenever . johnny : all right , i 'll do it now . it 's okay . lourdes : joe 's a great guy . lulu : yeah , he is . lourdes : so is there anyone else like him back home ? lulu : i -- i 'm sorry ? lourdes : his family , are they all into music , too ? lulu : no . lourdes : oh , so he 's a -- a renegade . lulu : when i -- i met joe , i did n't know that he was into music , but when i heard him play , it was like seeing into his soul . lourdes : so he 's it for you ? was n't there another guy ? [ scene_break ] monica : you know , you have the luxury of distance now , jason . you can see what you could n't before , all that you walked away from to go and work for sonny . you can see that your family loved you , however imperfectly , and that you had a chance at a whole completely different kind of future . jason : i just ca n't wonder about things that did n't happen . i made choices , and i have to live with those choices now . monica : and sonny took a world of options away . jason : no , sonny warned me about the consequences before i ever took the job . monica : and that 's how you have rationalized it for so long . you 've been telling yourself that sonny is an honorable man , sonny is a loyal friend . well , sonny has shown by his behavior to others and to you that he is none of those things . and jason , he is not worthy of your loyalty . [ scene_break ] claudia : loyalty is a funny thing . you know , people count on it , but it does n't always last , and sometimes it was never there to begin with . i mean , take the two of you , for example . you 're brothers . one might assume you have some sort of loyalty to each other . sonny : well , loyalty is n't one of ric 's strong suits . that 's the problem , see . ric : well , loyalty is a two - way street . otherwise , it 's blind obedience , which some people are better at than others . claudia : what about you , sonny ? sonny : what about me ? claudia : are you loyal ? sonny : extremely , to those people who are loyal to me . claudia : that 's exactly how i feel . if you 're loyal to me , i ca n't do enough for you , but if you burn me , you 're dead to me . ric : what is the point to all of this ? claudia : the point is , how far can any of us really trust each other ? [ scene_break ] chip : have the limo meet us at the loading dock . i do n't want anyone seeing eli in this condition . eli : i hope you 're not having any regrets . anna : oh , me ? no . you know , the only thing i regret was ever trying to get to know the man behind the musician you know , the real eli love . you 're just a shallow narcissist . noah : you know , i think eli suffered more brain damage than we thought in that operation last year . otherwise , he 'd realize that the groupie parade 's going to come and go . he 'll never find anybody quite as amazing as you . anna : oh , thank you . i just ca n't believe it took me so long to work out what a loser he is . noah : we all -- we all fell for it , though . i mean , you know , when you see the guy putting all that energy and passion on stage , you think there 's more to it . but people can surprise you , and where you found that stuff out about being a father , i 'll never know . if you put that into practice , then you 're going to be an amazing dad .

[ scene_break ] claudia : you claim to be out of the business . sonny : it 's not just a claim . i am , cross my heart . claudia : and hope to die . ric : what do you want , claudia ? claudia : the zacchara family is taking you at your word that this is n't just a ploy , that you 're not biding your time to come after us , and you are the legal representative of this family , so we trust that you 're always working in our best interest , doing your best to get john home safe . sonny : let 's just say for the sake of argument that i 'm secretly still in the business . why would i put in with ric ? claudia : oh , because he 's brilliant and highly motivated . sonny : yeah , but we do n't really like each other . claudia : no , well , you know what ? churchill did n't really like stalin , but he still needed him to win the war . now , maybe you got the idea that the zacchara family would be thrown into chaos and vulnerable if johnny were to disappear , and ric here is in a unique position to make that happen . ric : you know what ? these are all really interesting observations , claudia , but i have some place i need to be . thanks , sonny . sonny : i do n't like to be threatened . claudia : i do n't recall making any threats . sonny : well , you were dangling that you might tell ric that i 'm doing business with karpov . claudia : i got your attention , did n't i ?

[ scene_break ] carly : i want the details . i wan na hear how alexis confessed . jax : well , the idea was to clear alexis , actually , so you would stop worrying . i got diane to get the judge to order forensics on both of her cars , and it turns out they found a paint chip on one of the bumpers that match claudia 's car . carly : ha ha ! yeah , and i bet that 's when alexis argued that there 's a million cars out there that have the same paint chips . jax : no . that 's when she -- that 's when she confessed , okay , and i could n't believe it . carly : why did n't she just tell the truth in the beginning , then ? jax : well , that 's what got me thinking . see , alexis bought two white hybrids , one for herself and one for the nanny . carly : which car had the paint chips on it ? jax : nanny 's car . carly : why was she driving the nanny 's car ? jax : hmm . maybe she was n't . put yourself in her shoes . what would make you confess to a crime you did n't commit ? carly : if i were protecting my kid . jax : right . carly : it 's kristina . oh , my -- jax : kristina was driving the car . she caused claudia 's accident , and alexis confessed to protect her . carly : wow .

[ scene_break ] joe jr. : look , you know , i - i 'm sorry that i yelled at you like that . trey : it 's okay . joe jr. : it 's always been you and me against the world , right , joey ? you -- you still got your medal ? trey : yeah , i wear it every day , right here , close to my heart , like you taught me . joe jr. : people told me that , you know , i was crazy trying to raise a boy on my own after your bitch mother left us . one friend even said i should give you up for adoption . i mean , can you believe that ? there 's no way that i would ever abandon my own flesh and blood . i would n't trade the good times we 've had -- not for nothing . trey : me either , dad . joe jr. : you know , parents sacrifice for their kids . sometimes they 're disappointed , but not me . every time i look at you , my heart fills with pride . trey : it 's not like i 've done anything great yet . joe jr. : it 's true , son . i gave you the best of me . trey : i know you did , dad . but now i 'm asking for something -- one thing -- in return . you go back to port charles , and you reclaim what 's ours . [ scene_break ] sonny : you 're thinking that i 'm right . i do n't think i 've ever heard those words come out of your mouth , especially about trey . kristina : i am not saying you 're right . just that you might be . i 'm not saying trey is untrustworthy or that he is using me . sonny : so , what -- what -- what was i right about ? kristina : maybe all he really does care about is the show . sonny : what got you thinking that ? kristina : when i first met him , trey was friendly , interested . you know , coming up with the show concept , it felt like we were part of a team . but ever since we got to port charles and actually started filming , he 's just been keeping me at arm 's length , which i 'm sure you love hearing . sonny : no , no . not when it upsets you . kristina : i 've given trey every opportunity to show that he cares . and just when i think that we 're making progress , bam , suddenly he 's all about the show again and how unprofessional it would be if we -- we got together . sonny : what are you gon na do ? kristina : i could quit . sonny : mm - hmm . kristina : but without the show , there would be nothing standing between us . but what if the show was the only thing that was connecting us ? i 'll lose him . sonny : can i tell you something ? i do n't want to upset you or ... make you sad or whatever , but it 's something for you to think about . do you -- do you really want to be in a relationship with a guy who cares more about a reality show than he cares about you ? [ scene_break ] shawn : okay , you expect me to believe you not only play strip pool at all , you play strip pool in a public place ? alexis : that 's right , my friend . right here , right here , at this very pool table . what do you man , `` at all `` ? shawn : i mean , i 'm thinking you probably shower fully clothed . alexis : coleman , do i shower fully clothed ? coleman : alexis , i would n't know . i have n't had the pleasure . alexis : there 's a side to me that you are not acquainted with , and i can assure you it is un - uptight . shawn : okay , she 's pulling my leg , is n't she ? coleman : no , she 's not pulling your leg . not only did she play , she kicked my ass , man . shawn : did she ? coleman : yeah . hustled me down to my skivvies . mac scorpio , too . no , she 's a shark . proceed at your own risk . alexis : told you . shawn : yeah , i 'm still not buying . i think you put him up to it . alexis : fine . rack 'em ! shawn : you 're on . alexis : that 's it . shirt off . shawn : [ chuckles ] you want to do it ? alexis : do wha -- what ? shawn : it 's okay . i got it . winners break . alexis : no problem . [ scene_break ] carly : what are you waiting for ? turn around , apologize to johnny . todd : johnny does n't like -- i do n't like him . carly : i do n't care . you planted a camera in johnny 's office and all you got was some accidental home porn . now turn around and apologize to johnny . johnny : you know what ? i do n't want his apology . all i want is a promise that this ends here -- now . carly : you hear that ? that 's awful generous of johnny , do n't you think ? [ cell phone ringing ] carly : i have to take this . it 's josslyn 's camp . hello ? [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] johnny : smart move -- keeping your mouth shut . todd : so , you do n't want carly to know that you killed my granddaughter , huh ? johnny : what , so all of a sudden you 're on this moral high ground ? are you forgetting that you let your ex walk out of town with sam 's baby ? todd : at least the child i hurt is still alive . was n't strapped into the back of a car that went over a cliff and burst into flames . johnny : it does n't matter which one of us is worse . what matters is we keep each other 's secret . because if not , our lives -- they go to hell . so i 'm gon na need that promise now . [ scene_break ] sam : i might as well tell you , since you put it all together anyway . i did not start out investigating todd . i started out -- i was hired to investigate heather webber . jason : okay , so what 's the connection between heather and todd ? sam : well , i think that heather has something on todd and todd has something on heather . it 's a mutual extortion . jason : yeah , but heather 's in custody , so that case is over , right ? so , why -- why are you here ? sam : well , because if todd knows anything and heather 's involved , i need to find out what it is . jason : well , carly thinks he just feels bad because he lost his granddaughter not too long ago . sam : jason , you have not seen the two of them together . when they 're together , the tension with them -- it 's weird . it 's strange . and he 's brought up my baby a couple times , out of nowhere , for absolutely no reason . i just ca n't imagine how it all connects . my baby is dead , and that has absolutely nothing to do with todd manning . [ scene_break ] molly : with sam being so upset about jason and the baby and kristina obsessed with trey and her reality show -- i do n't know -- i 'm feeling kind of left out at home . i do n't know what i 'd do if i did n't have you . t.j. : back at you . do n't you like your carpaccio ? molly : i think they forgot to cook it . t.j. : it 's supposed to be raw . i read that on the internet . molly : but it 's beef . you ca n't serve raw cow . t.j. : you eat sushi , right ? that 's raw fish . what 's the difference ? molly : i do n't know . mad cow disease ? t.j. : who knew you could be so squeamish ? molly : i 'm not . i 'm practical . t.j. : do n't forget cute . molly : what if my mom walked in and saw you touching my face ? is n't that inappropriate ? [ scene_break ] shawn : ah , a shirt for a shirt . it 's only fair . alexis : fine . i would object if i were uptight , which i am not . singer : do you want to kiss me ? do you want to kiss ? do you want to kiss me ? coleman : all right , shawn ! whoo ! about time someone took her down , man ! shawn : so , you always win at this , right , which means you actually never strip ? coleman : hey , man , the best we could do last time she played was get her to take off her watch and her earrings . shawn : watch and earrings . alexis : rack 'em . singer : do you want to touch ? do you want to touch ? want to touch do want to touch ? do you want to touch me ? [ instrumental solo ] coleman : [ chuckles ] alexis : [ blows ] coleman : whoa ! whoa ! whoa , man ! no ! no full frontal , uh , in -- in my establishment , brother . no , no . shawn : see , we -- we do n't want coleman to lose his license , do we ? alexis : welcher . shawn : oh , yeah . coleman : let 's , uh -- let 's just call it a tie , all right ? alexis : all right . i 'll let you keep your boxers on ... if you admit ... that i have never , ever been uptight . shawn : all right . all right . i 'll take it all back . you 're far from uptight . singer : do you want to touch ? shawn : [ chuckles ] singer : do you want to touch ? alexis : whew . whew ! [ both chuckle ] [ scene_break ] johnny : what 's it gon na be , todd , huh ? are we gon na destroy each other 's lives , or are we gon na keep each other 's secrets ? either way , it 's your call . [ scene_break ] carly : well ? did you make that promise to johnny ? todd : johnny and i have an understanding . johnny : oh , yeah . we understand each other . todd : i 'm so sorry . i invaded your privacy . carly , in the short time i 've known you , i - i 've come to admire everything about you , except for your atrocious choice in boyfriends . carly : this is an understanding ? todd : i do n't like johnny . johnny does n't like me . that 's the understanding . we 've agreed to coexist . but ... if i hurt your feelings or if i made you uncomfortable , i 'm sorry . carly : apology accepted . todd : okay . i 'll get on with my life and leave you to yours . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] jason : heather is obsessed with franco . maybe that 's why she 's interested in the baby . sam : yeah , because franco was his father , but what does -- what does that have to do with todd ? jason : i do n't know . what have you found out ? sam : nothing so far . i 've been trying to crack the safe open , figure out what 's in there , and i know i could have been and out , but i keep being interrupted by everybody . jason : what -- what if i guard the door for you ? sam : i 've got three numbers down , one to go . jason : let 's do it . sam : let 's do it . [ beep ] sam : jason ! i got it . [ scene_break ] t.j. : do i have sunchoke on my face ? molly : [ chuckles ] thank you . t.j. : for a dinner that neither one of us really liked ? molly : yeah , so the dinner was a little weird . that 's what made it fun . and you worked so hard and saved up and did all that internet research for me . i really appreciate that . so , where is my mom and your parental equivalent ? t.j. : probably out somewhere , having a really hot time . molly : [ laughing ] yeah , right . [ scene_break ] shawn : [ clears throat ] alexis : it 's getting late . shawn : yeah . i guess we got caught up in the game . alexis : the kids . oh , my god . the kids . shawn : yeah . alexis : oh , my god . molly 's gon na wonder where i am . i 'm certainly not gon na tell her that mommy took off her clothes in a bar . that would n't be very helpful at this point , would it ? all right , listen . coleman , call me a cab . i 'll meet him outside . shawn : alexis ! alexis : what ? shawn : you better put on your shirt . we do n't want to give the kids any wrong ideas . [ scene_break ] joe jr. : do n't let me down , son . [ smooches ] [ sighs ] trey : [ exhales deeply ] [ scene_break ] sonny : i can tell you how pretty and smart and accomplished you are and how everybody should treat you with respect , but it 's not gon na matter until you believe it yourself . until you value yourself inside . then it 's not gon na matter what trey or anybody else thinks . kristina : i know . i know . sonny : i 'm never gon na love this reality show , as you know , but you know what bothers me ? is that you could be doing it for the wrong reasons . to get back at me and your mom or to impress trey . kristina : i thought the show was what i wanted , but now i 'm not so sure about anything , especially trey . i just wish i knew how he really felt about me , but part of me is afraid that -- trey : kristina ! hello ? kristina : trey . trey : hey . kristina : hey . trey : mr. corinthos . kristina : i did n't know where you were . trey : um , yeah , i - i 'm sorry . i had to take care of something . sonny : where are the cameras ? trey : um , i called them off . look , kristina , i 've been giving this a lot of thought , and i 'm starting to think that `` mob princess `` is a really bad idea . kristina : what ? trey : i 'm saying we need to rethink doing the show . [ scene_break ] johnny : you think , uh , your friend todd -- you think he 's gon na keep up his end of the deal ? carly : i do n't think he 's gon na plant any more cameras in your office . johnny : yeah . just to be safe , i think i 'll sweep the place myself daily . carly : [ sighs ] i ca n't believe he watched us having sex . how embarrassing . johnny : by embarrassing , you mean creepy ? yeah . carly : i - i 'm just glad that was the worst of it . i thought he was gon na tell me you had done something horrible , and ... johnny : yeah , well , given my track record , i would n't be surprised . carly : all of todd 's predictions about you hiding some big secret -- they 're wrong . so maybe now all the craziness can be over between the two of you . johnny : i hope so . [ scene_break ] todd : hi . who are you ? why are you in my office ? jason : i 'm jason morgan . my wife works for you . todd : i did n't realize you two were still together . sam : jason , what are you doing here ? jason : you know , i - i 'd like to talk to sam , if that 's okay . sam : i do n't think now is the time or place . todd : well , if my assistant does n't want to talk to you , then i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . jason : you want me to go ? todd : yeah . i can call security . jason : or you can call carly , ask her to have me removed . todd : she 's busy . she 's with her deadbeat boyfriend . you know , if you 're such a good friend of carly , why do n't you tell her that she can do better than johnny zacchara ? jason : i 'm sure she 'll figure it out . todd : i hope so . it was nice meeting you . you need to leave .

[ scene_break ] michael : looking for your mother , nikolas ? you know , for someone who prides himself on taking care of his family , it certainly did n't stop you from messing with mine . [ scene_break ] morgan : silas took off like a bat out of hell . did n't say one word to me , which i guess is a good thing , but what about you ? did you convince him to keep his mouth shut ? ava : [ inhales sharply ] i do n't think so . morgan : that 's bad . that 's really , really bad , denise . ava : i tried like hell , but silas -- he seems determined to tell kiki everything . [ scene_break ] silas : hey , kiki . it 's your dad . i know you 're still at your bachelorette party . i -- i hope you 're having fun . look , i need to see you as soon as you get home . there 's something i need to tell you . kiki , it 's really important . [ scene_break ] nina : i was just talking a - about you , and here you are . franco : and here i am . nina : yeah . i do n't understand . are you being committed ? franco : no , no . i ca -- i came here for you . nina : y - you came for me ? franco : yeah , i ran into your mother , and she said that you were having a really hard time . and she refused to tell me where you were , but ... nina : how 'd you find me ? franco : well , she said that you were getting the help that you need , and i took a wild guess , thought you might be back here . nina : 'cause i 'm broken . franco : no . because this is a place where people come for comfort . i found comfort here when i found you here and , uh , when you and i got closer here than most people do anywhere else . yeah , it 's , uh ... i - i came back here for you . nina : [ chuckles ] oh . um ... is it true , all those things , um , that denise told me ? franco : first time for e - everything , i guess . why ? what 'd she say ? nina : she said that , um , when you 're with her , all you can do is think of me . franco : well , can you blame me ? look at you . you 're amazing and fierce , and you 're funny , and you 're the best friend i ever had . nina : you do n't have any friends . franco : i 'm not a friendly person . nina : [ chuckles ] franco : the only reason you 're alone is because your mother stole 20 years of your life when she put you in that coma , and you spent your whole life in that bed . and i ca n't stand the idea of you being locked up here again . nina : all these things that you 're saying , you 're saying -- you 're saying them because you love me . franco : i never stopped loving you . nina : i never stopped loving you . [ scene_break ] ava : what are we gon na do ? morgan : you know what ? silas clay 's a hypocrite 'cause he cheated on his wife . he was married to nina , cheated on her with ava , got her pregnant , so i do n't know where the hell he gets the stones to act all righteous and moral towards us . ava : morgan , we need to focus on coming up with a plan to stop him . morgan : silas is judging us . you got to be kidding me . yet he was mixing it up in bed just like we were , except he was married and his wife was pregnant . [ scene_break ] franco : you know i never stopped hoping that we would be together , right ? nina : i 'm sorry . franco : no , i 'm sorry . i - i 'm sorry that i doubted you . i am . i know i was just trying to protect you , but i know how much it hurt you that you thought i was n't on your side . nina : no , no , you -- you were just trying , yeah , to protect me . you were just trying to help me . i mean , like -- like , um -- like you have from the moment we met . franco : well , maybe that 's the problem . maybe i 'm not good at helping . nina : no , you 're so good at helping . you broke out of prison to -- to protect me from heather . franco : and i did shoot myself ... nina : with lsd . [ laughs ] you did that to protect me . listen ... ... no one ... [ voice breaking ] ... no one has ever tried to do that for me . no one 's ever , ever , um , tried to protect me or help me . i mean , silas just threw me away for ava , and my mom , you know , she just threw me away , so -- franco : it 's over now . all of that 's over . you 're okay . and i 'm here , and the first thing that we 're gon na do together is get you out of here . [ scene_break ] michael : how 's it going over there at my great - grandfather 's company ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] it 's -- it 's going quite well , actually . michael : really ? that 's -- oh . because i saw that the , uh , the stock took a nosedive this week , despite all that press you did about guiding elq with a steady hand and increasing profits . now , it would seem that the shareholders hold no more confidence in your leadership than the quartermaines . nikolas : m - michael , come on . you know as well as i do the stock prices tend to fluctuate , especially when there 's a takeover . i can assure you , the company is thriving with me in charge . within a matter of weeks , the shares will be above and beyond what they were before i took over . michael : within a matter of weeks , you could be gone . [ scene_break ] sam : elizabeth seemed a little hesitant about letting little jake and danny meet , but i guess -- i guess i just made a bigger deal about it than it was supposed to be . patrick : she mentioned that , and she did n't mean to make you feel that way . but i think it was what we were talking about , you know ? a lot 's happened in a short amount of time , and she 's just being cautious . sam : wow . so jason 's sons are gon na be able to be in each other 's lives . thank you . patrick : yes . sam : thank you . patrick : of course . sam : i love you . patrick : i love you , too . as much as i hate to pull myself away from you , i 've got a couple patients . sam : no ! mm . patrick : but i 'm not gon na be that long -- like 45 minutes , so if you want to stick around , we can go grab dinner after . sam : oh , yeah , i 'll stick around . patrick : yeah ? sam : mm - hmm . patrick : okay , perfect . i will see you in a little bit . bye . sam : bye . [ sighs ] jason : hey . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : laura , i do n't know what nikolas told you , but you must have misunderstood . laura : i overheard nikolas when he was talking to you at wyndemere . elizabeth : what ? laura : when i took little jake into the kitchen to get a cookie , he had dropped his toy , so i came back to pick it up . elizabeth : then you must have heard us out of context . laura : no . please do n't do this . after you left , i confronted nikolas , and he admitted to me that jake is jason . elizabeth : oh . oh , um ... he did n't tell me that you had spoken with him . laura : maybe he did n't want to upset you . now , listen , he made a very compelling argument about why i should keep this secret , but i am struggling with this . i - i do n't know what to do with this knowledge that you and my son are keeping from jason who he really is . elizabeth : laura , i - i have good reason for keeping quiet . i do . laura : look , i know that you love jason . he 's little jake 's father , and , of course , you want him in your life . elizabeth : he was just here . y - you were with him and you -- you did n't say anything , so d - does that mean you 're gon na keep it to yourself ? you can just pretend like you never heard nikolas and me . laura : no , honey . no . i have decided that i have to tell the truth about jason . [ scene_break ] michael : did you really think i 'd let you have elq without a fight ? it 's my great - grandfather 's legacy . he wanted it to remain under family control . now , you , see , you are nothing but an opportunist who took advantage of luke 's psychotic break . you obtained that stock through -- through blackmail , coercion , or , you know , outright theft . nikolas : o - okay . but none of that can be proven . [ chuckling ] michael , no matter how many ways you run the numbers , i have the largest block of shares , regardless of how i acquired them . there 's nothing you can do to change that . michael : taking you down has nothing to do with shares or numbers . i 'm thinking of something a little more creative to get you to surrender elq . [ scene_break ] jason : i just -- i wanted to talk to patrick about hayden . hopefully there 's an update in her condition . sam : oh , y - you know what ? um , he 's on his rounds but will be done in like 45 minutes . i was gon na wait . you 're more than welcome to wait with me . jason : yeah ? sam : yeah . we can sit over there . jason : sounds good to me . sam : okay . jason : um . [ clears throat ] hmm . you know , i - i was at elizabeth 's when , uh , patrick came by , and he pitched introducing danny to his big brother . sam : yeah , about that -- are you sure elizabeth is okay with the whole idea ? i could have sworn i heard a tone in her voice , and i just was -- jason : no , no , no . look , look , look -- i - i think that , uh -- i think elizabeth is just being a good mother . that kid has been through a lot , and she 's trying to protect him . and maybe she 's being a little bit overprotective . i do n't think she wants him to leave the house . sam : yeah . [ chuckles ] ugh , i could kill helena cassadine . that woman has caused so much pain . she let everyone believe that little jake was dead . that whole family grieved . jason : yeah . sam : i mean , especially jason . it went so deep , he could not even express it . and now ... little jake is here and jason is never gon na -- jason : you 're right . he 's here . he 's alive . he is here . and now jake and danny -- they get to grow up as brothers , and that means a lot . that 's pretty amazing . sam : you know what ? you -- you are absolutely right . i need to focus on the good and stop dwelling on what ca n't be changed . jason : what happened happened . all you can do is move on . you know , something else happened at elizabeth 's that i want to run by you . sam : oh , yeah , wh -- uh , what 's up ? jason : well , michael came to visit , and , uh , i told him about the nikolas and hayden connection . sam : oh . really ? what 'd he have to say about that ? jason : he brought up a good point -- if hayden knows who i really am , um ... maybe nikolas does , too .

[ scoffs ] what , to help out michael quartermaine ? i - if sonny corinthos got custody ? i mean , w - why would he do it ? franco : it has nothing to do with -- with any of them . nina : well , then , why would he kidnap a baby ? franco : to help ava . nina : ava 's dead . franco : no , nina . denise demuccio is an alias . the accent is fake , the hair is dyed , and the woman underneath ... is ava . [ scene_break ] morgan : you do n't want me to give silas hell ? why not ? silas : to spare kiki 's feelings , i kept my mouth shut because i thought you and morgan had broken it off . now that i know you 're still going at it , i 'm telling kiki everything . ava : if you expose me , it 'll all come out . silas : stop threatening me . ava : all of it . what you did to help me . and i 'll go to jail for killing connie falconeri . silas : good ! you should . ava : well , you 'll be right there with me for kidnapping little avery . silas : you know something , ava ? i 'm good with that . ava : his mind was made up . and you 'd not only be wasting your time , you 'd be making things worse . morgan : worse ? how can this be worse ? he 's gon na tell kiki that we 're sleeping together . ava : silas is already out of control . if you go to him and -- and -- and fight some more , he 's gon na blow a gasket . he could tell kiki before she gets back from her little bachelorette trip . we do n't want that , do we ? morgan : no . but i ca n't do -- i ca n't do nothing . if someone 's gon na tell kiki , it 's gon na be me . i 'm gon na do damage control , okay ? maybe i can spin it somehow , salvage my relationship , make her not hate you . ava : that 's real sweet , but i 'm not sure . [ sighs ] morgan : i ca n't leave clay out there on the loose knowing that he could tell kiki any minute . no way . i will do whatever it takes to shut clay the hell up . [ scene_break ] sam : nikolas swore that he had no idea who you really are . jason : i think the elq takeover proves that your cousin can keep a secret . sam : okay , true . jason : and it would explain why hayden was able to , uh , [ chuckles ] know my true identity . no one else could . she was living with your cousin . sam : wait a minute . when hayden was shot -- when you went after shawn -- she said that someone else knows the truth about who you are . jason : yeah . could have been nikolas . it would explain why hayden insisted whatever she had to say would affect you , too . i mean [ clears throat ] maybe she wanted to let you know what your cousin had done . sam : hayden did seem convinced that knowing who you are would matter to me , but i ca n't imagine nikolas knowing and keeping quiet about it this whole time . jason : look , i get it . i get it . he 's your family . you want to give him the benefit of the doubt . sam : no , you know what ? i just -- i was afraid of this . i ca n't -- i ca n't believe it . but maybe storming the gates of elq is just the tip of the iceberg . maybe nikolas has become a true cassadine , and he 's taken to plundering people 's lives and not just the quartermaine family business . jason : i 'm sorry that i 'm going down this road , but i think we have to . sam : [ sighs ] yes , we do . but if it is true , how do we get nikolas to admit it ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : nikolas and lucky both know that jake is really jason . everybody would be furious with them for hiding that . laura : [ scoffs ] well , that 's hardly the point . elizabeth : and especially nikolas . he 's known this for months . and right now , sam 's already mad at him for taking elq away from the quartermaines . now , she 's going to get past that , but she would never forgive him for keeping her husband away from her . do you really want nikolas to lose his -- his cousin and alexis , the entire family ? you realize everybody is going to turn against him . are you willing to make your son a pariah ? laura : you know , i think that 's a chance that i 'm willing to take . i believe my son would understand , and i think he 'd forgive me . elizabeth : well , even if he does , what good is it gon na do either of you if nikolas is in prison ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : so , what is this , uh , oh - so - creative plan of yours ? michael : maybe i 'm taking a page out of your book -- exploiting my enemy 's weakness . now , in my -- my family 's case , we mistakenly placed our trust in you . we did n't think that you would violate emily 's memory by raiding our company . and now you assume that you are securely in charge , and there 's nothing my family can use against you . nikolas : well , nothing that you could use as leverage in business . michael : are you sure about that , nikolas ? everyone has secrets . everyone . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : there 's someone else who knows the truth about jason . her name is hayden barnes . she was blackmailing nikolas , threatened to tell . she tried to make good on her threat , but moments before she told jason the truth , she got shot in the head . laura : my god . are you -- are you saying ... elizabeth : i think nikolas was responsible . laura : no . no , nikolas did n't have someone shot . he 's not capable of that . elizabeth : i - it took me a while to put it all together . but the shooting was blamed on one of sonny 's enforcers , shawn butler . it was seen as a failed attempt to kill jason , of all people . everyone just thinks the bullet went astray and accidentally hit hayden . laura : did nikolas ever say that he wanted this girl -- hayden -- dead ? elizabeth : no . no . he would n't want me implicated in the murder . anyway , after hayden got shot , i - i do n't want to say that i was relieved , but i - i could n't believe how things unfolded . nikolas was so committed to keeping jason 's identity a secret . he even had hayden move into wyndemere with him . and then the day of the shooting , this -- it was like this change came over him , and he -- he actually told hayden t - to go ahead and t - tell jason the truth . laura : [ sighs ] elizabeth : he was so -- he was so calm . and he kept reassuring me over and over again that it was all gon na work out . of course , i did n't believe him , because i did n't know how far he would go to keep hayden quiet . laura : is she dead ? elizabeth : no . no , she 's in a coma . i did n't want to think about nikolas ordering hayden shot until her condition changed . her vitals started to improve , and it looked like she might be waking up , so i -- i told nikolas this , and he -- he said that if hayden comes to , he 'll take care of it . the look in his eyes and the sound in his voice -- it was just so cold and flat . laura , i do n't -- i do n't want to believe this is true , but it all adds up . i think nikolas was behind the shooting . and this is why the truth about jason can never come out . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 're better off admitting your failure and moving on . michael : i did n't fail . you illegally grabbed my family 's stock . nikolas : you only have yourself to blame , michael , for losing elq . i mean , if -- if you had n't spitefully taken sonny 's daughter away from him , i do n't know , maybe lucy coe would have never used her tie - breaking vote against you . michael : i 've already addressed the sonny situation . avery is back with her father . you add that to the fact that my track record as ceo is more profitable than yours , and then when we have another vote , i 'm sure lucy will actually change her mind . so enjoy your time behind my desk while you can because pretty soon , you 're gon na be out in the cold with the rest of the cassadines . [ scene_break ] sam : i know nikolas . i know that confronting him wo n't work . if he knows the truth about you , he will take it to his grave . jason : [ clears throat ] do you have any idea why my identity would be so important to him ? i mean , why would n't he just come out and tell me what he knows ? sam : no , i - i ca n't imagine why he would want to mess with someone 's life like this . jason : look , i -- i 've told you that i 'm okay with not having a past . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm content . what i have with elizabeth and her boys , it 's -- it 's pretty great . it 's amazing . i love this woman . but when michael tells me that nikolas might know who i am , i - i do n't know . something seizes me up . i get really worked up , and i -- i want to know who i am . [ scene_break ] nina : um , all right , so , you 're telling me that -- that silas , uh , was hiding ava , and he took that baby 's bone marrow so he could save her life ? franco : yeah . silas did n't want anyone to know that ava was alive , because then he 'd get in trouble for helping her escape , and then he saw avery at the hospital , and he just grabbed her . nina : he 's a son of a bitch . he kidnapped that baby , and he 's trying to pin it on me . [ scene_break ] ava : silas said he 's gon na tell kiki about us when she gets back from her trip , which means he 's not gon na do nothing about nothing tonight . morgan : oh , i 'll make sure of that . ava : you 'll have time to head him off at the pass without going postal on silas . morgan , you have got to calm down . morgan : calm -- how can you be calm ? ava : 'cause i 'm gon na figure out a way to stop this from happening without confronting silas . so you go . you go home and -- and let me work on figuring out a way to make this right by tomorrow . just promise me -- you cross your heart and hope to die -- you will not see silas tonight . morgan : okay . ava : swear it . morgan : i swear . ava : good . now go home . i have to put my thinking cap on , and that 's not very pretty . morgan : sorry , denise . ca n't keep that promise . [ scene_break ] ava : oh , pick up , silas , please . [ ringing ] silas : you 've reached dr. silas clay . if this is a patient emergency , call -- ava : damn it . oh , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . he is not gon na do this to me . who gives a damn about the affair ? if he tells kiki who i really am , i 'm going to prison . my life will be over . [ scene_break ] nina : lying bastard . he 's a liar . he took the baby . do you know , when i thought i took her , when i thought i took avery , i went right to him ? i went to him , and i told him everything that happened . he sat there , and he just listened to me , but he took the baby . he took the baby the entire time , right ? franco : yeah . nina : oh , my god . he 's a dirtbag . he is a dirtbag . i can not believe this . i ca n't believe that i -- i sat there and i talked to him and -- and i trusted him , and he went off and he said all this gratuitous , lovely stuff to me , but it was all a lie . he did n't give a damn about me . he 's trying to pin this on me . do you know he 's trying to pin this on me ? he 's -- i - it 's -- he 's trying to take me down for a crime that i did n't commit . that 's what he 's trying to do . he 's -- he 's trying to take away my life again . he 's trying to take away my life . i 'm as worthless to him now as i ever was , and he once again has chosen ava over me ! once again ! franco : he 's a hypocrite . a total hypocrite . nina : he 's not gon na get away with it . do you know that ? he 's not gon na get away with it this time . franco : no , he wo n't . wait , wait , wait , where are you going ? nina ! man : franco ! oh , you 're back ! fancy a game of `` chutes and ladders `` ? i 've been practicing . franco : i do n't have time right now . man : oh , sure there 's time . franco : no , there is n't . my friend -- i have to get -- man : y - you have time , no . we could play `` chutes and ladders `` and work our way up to `` battleship . `` franco : look over here ! nina ! [ scene_break ] jason : let 's stay focused on the task at hand -- getting nikolas out of elq and michael back in there where he belongs . sam : yeah , but if nikolas does have the knowledge about you , we can take him down in a heartbeat . we just need proof . but the only one who can do that is hayden barnes , and she 's still in a coma . jason : yeah . [ scene_break ] nikolas : as entertaining as all of your hypotheticals have been , i need to find my mother . michael : well , i actually know where she is . nikolas : could have said that to begin with . where is she ? michael : elizabeth 's . my grandmother and i were leaving while she was arriving . i 'm assuming she was there to see little jake , but when we left , she was talking to jake doe . [ scene_break ] laura : if your theory were right , the police would have already found out about this , because the bullet that hit hayden would n't match the one that 's in shawn butler 's gun . elizabeth : the investigation never got that far . shawn butler pled guilty so he could n't be used to implicate sonny . he was taken off to prison days after hayden got shot , and i 'm willing to bet that shawn 's misspent bullet is somewhere in that garage . and the bullet they took out of hayden 's head has been filed as evidence . if the truth about jason comes out , they will reopen the investigation . laura : i do n't see why . elizabeth : because sam and jason were witnesses , and they knew that hayden was on the verge of telling them something right before she got shot . and if the police figure out that she was actually the intended target , how long is it gon na take them to trace it back to nikolas ? laura : and if that were to happen and if the police were to question you , would you implicate my son ? elizabeth : it does n't have to come to that , laura . i love your son . i 'm trying to protect him , and i want you to protect him . laura : stop , please . [ groans ] oh , my god . you know -- wait a minute , wait a minute . you want the truth about jason to stay buried . do n't you think that maybe that 's coloring your judgment ? maybe nikolas is really innocent , and how do you think he would feel if he knew that you thought that he would actually have somebody shot ? elizabeth : i do n't believe he is innocent , and i do n't think you do , either . i 've had obviously a long time to think about this -- longer than you -- and i have realized that it is better for everyone , laura , especially nikolas , if jason stays jake . i 'm gon na go check on my boys . i need you to think about this , because this is n't a case of right and wrong . the wrong was already done long before we ever got involved . it 's about doing the best we can for the people we love , okay ? laura : [ sighs ] oh . [ crying ] oh . elizabeth : i just got all the boys down . did you have enough time to think ? laura : yeah , i did . i 'm gon na go talk to nikolas . i 'm gon na ask him what really happened with hayden barnes . elizabeth : no , you ca n't . nikolas does n't realize that i 've figured it out . laura : i can not assume that my son is guilty without at least giving him a chance to defend himself . elizabeth : are you really going to put him in this position ? where he either has to lie to his mother or admit to your face that he had a woman shot ? [ scene_break ] jason : do you think , uh , there 's another place that nikolas might keep sensitive documents , besides the wyndemere safe ? i mean , maybe a safe - deposit box ? something ? sam : um , i do n't know , but i can definitely check it out . patrick : sam . sam : oh . patrick : hi . sam : you caught me . it 's just a snack . i 'm -- i 'm still gon na want dinner . [ chuckles ] patrick : it 's quite all right . sorry -- - sorry i was late . it took a little bit longer than i expected . sam : oh , that 's okay . jake was waiting with me . patrick : hey . jason : i actually wanted to talk to you about hayden . has her condition changed ? patrick : well , uh , funny you should ask . your timing is right - on . i just left her room . she 's waking up . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : laura , i know it 's not a perfect solution , but the alternative will hurt so many people , especially nikolas . you ca n't tell him what i 've told you . just leave it alone , okay ? please . [ knock on door ] elizabeth : nikolas . nikolas : hi . elizabeth : come in . nikolas : mother , here you are . michael quartermaine told me you might still be here . laura : yeah . yeah . uh , we had an awful lot to catch up on . nikolas : guess so . elizabeth , i - i need to speak to my mother about jason . i did n't get a chance to tell you that she overheard us . elizabeth : yeah . uh , yeah , i - i know all about it . laura : actually , that 's what we were discussing -- jason . elizabeth : [ inhales sharply ] [ scene_break ] michael : morgan ? morgan : hey . michael : hi . morgan : what 's up , man ? michael : everything okay ? morgan : yeah . yeah , yeah , no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . i just -- i need a drink , that 's all . michael : did something happen ? morgan : no , nothing for you to worry about . michael : well , guess what ? i 'm worried . so ... what 's going on ? morgan : nothing . i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm fine . michael : all right , um , look , there 's somewhere i got to -- i got to be . morgan : okay , that 's -- go . michael : [ sighs ] morgan , the whole point of having a truce is that we can start talking to each other again . so if you need me , you have my -- my cell phone number , right ? morgan : mm - hmm . right . michael : all right . morgan : michael . why do you still care about me when all i am is an ass to you ? michael : i - i 'm your big brother . it 's my job . call me . morgan : okay . excuse me . i need a double tequila -- anything . as soon as you can , please .

[ scene_break ] valentin : i ca n't tell you how much i appreciate you bailing me out . your faith in me is ... well , it 's everything . nathan : too bad her faith in you is misplaced . man , you are not only everything everybody says about you , you 're worse . you did all this on your own . you 've earned it . nina : stop . stop . he 's not perfect . he did n't kidnap spencer . he 's telling the truth about that . nathan : just because spencer did n't id him does n't automatically clear him . valentin : okay , this is a witch hunt . spencer accused me , and then he retracted . so , let 's look at what 's really happening here . he has a civil suit against me . one that both laura and alexis told him that he could actually win . now , the pcpd ca n't pin kidnapping charges on me , but they will call me a `` person of interest . `` why ? to help with the case . why else would they be focusing on me and not trying to find a real kidnapper ? [ scene_break ] carly : i was on my way into the hospital and i saw elizabeth with garvey . dante : what do you mean -- what you mean `` with him ? `` carly : well , she did n't want to be with him . he was holding on to her arm . he told me if i did n't cooperate , he was gon na hurt her . dante : what did he want ? carly : he wanted medical supplies so elizabeth could patch him up . dante : well , that 's not a very well - thought - out plan . carly : no , but i let garvey believe i was going along with that plan , and then , when he let his guard down , i jumped him . dante : you took quite the risk , carly . i mean , he could 've had a gun . carly : i figured , if he had a gun , he 'd be pointing it at me . so , i knew he was unarmed and he was weak . i saw an opportunity and i took it . dante : you know , you uh ... maybe you should 've been a cop . carly : [ laughs ] officer : i think i found the car . and i checked it out . there 's no gps , but i 've got the plates . i also found this . dante : run the plates . carly : that 's the cassadine crest . dante : so , the car sounds like it fits the description of the vehicle used in spencer 's kidnapping . carly : garvey took spencer ? why would he do that ? dante : he 's obviously been in port charles longer than we thought . maybe he was stalking sonny and saw the two of them together . carly : okay , so , what ? he took him for revenge , for ransom ? dante : no . for bait . what better way to set a trap for sonny than taking his nephew hostage ? [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : that 's just an overview . there 's more intel where that came from . jared : that wo n't be necessary . rachel -- or , hayden -- has brought me nothing but bad luck . i 'm cutting my losses . i suggest you do the same . auf wiedersehen . dr. obrecht : coward . no wonder she left you holding the bag .

[ scene_break ] lorenzo : how did you and sonny meet ? carly : through a mutual friend . why ? lorenzo : you 've asked me a lot of questions about my past , and i 've answered them . does n't that entitle me to know a little bit about yours ? carly : all right , i 'll give you the abridged version . i grew up in a rented dump in florida . i was furious with my adopted mother , and i was jealous of my rich best friend . once i found out who my biological mother was , i was hell- bent on ruining her life . that 's why i went to port charles . i did n't want to make the world a better place . i just wanted to find a rich and powerful man and take him for all he was worth . no noble intentions , no goodness of heart or spirit . i was the complete polar opposite of your lost sophie in every single respect . lorenzo : are you saying you 're using sonny ? carly : are you insane ? no one uses my husband . and those who try , they get chewed up and they get spit out and then they mysteriously disappear . lorenzo : so you love him ? carly : he 's everything to me . lorenzo : and the fact that he just happens to be rich and powerful is , what , an amazing coincidence ? carly : it 's a collateral benefit . sonny and i were n't supposed to happen . he could n't stand me , and the feeling was mutual . lorenzo : how do you cross that bridge ? carly : carefully . painfully . see , sonny and i -- we slept together for all the wrong reasons , and i wound up pregnant . and then it was a pretty specific hell for a while until something happened . and then we sort of just learned to love each other . lorenzo : are you sure about that ? or are you and sonny just making the best of a bad situation ? [ scene_break ] courtney : michael still asleep ? sonny : why ? is there a problem ? courtney : no , he just -- he had a nightmare , but jason calmed him down . sonny : jason 's great with michael . courtney : do you ever feel like you took something from jason since he was michael 's father first ? sonny : where 's this coming from ? courtney : i do n't know . it 's just sometimes it 's like jason thinks that his life is less valuable than yours . and , sonny , i mean , it would never even occur to him not to put it on the line for you or carly . sonny : ok , if you 're asking me to leave him behind , i ca n't do that . i 've got to get carly away from alcazar , and i need jason 's help to do that . courtney : no -- i know , i know . i 'm not trying to interfere . look , i guess i 'm just asking for you to please just show some caution for jason 's sake since he wo n't do it for himself . sonny : i know this is hard for you to understand , but the reason jason 's valuable to me is because he is n't cautious . he does n't second - guess , you know ? his work comes naturally to him , and he 's not going to leave that behind . i 'm telling you this because i know . the best thing for you to do is let him go tonight , have a smile on your face , so that way he does n't have to worry about you , ok ? jason : everything 's ready . sonny : all right . all right . jason : i just -- i just realized that you did n't tell me about the surprise . courtney : it -- no , it can wait . jason : ok . i 'm going to bring carly home . courtney : ok . i love you .

's hospital room the night he died , and then -- sonny : right . reese : suddenly she up and kills herself ? sonny : ok , when you talked to her , did she seem suicidal ? reese : no . not at all . and then dr. thomas , he saw her shortly after i did . he tells the cops that she seems upset and agitated . sonny : you think he 's lying ? reese : sonny , i think he 's been lying about a lot of things . sonny : ok , what would his motive be to kill a.j . ? reese : i do n't know . that 's what totally frustrates me . i do n't know . i mean , on paper , it looks like i should n't even be investigating this process at all . but there it is . rachel , she confesses , she kills herself , and dr. thomas is in the clear . sonny : but your gut is telling you something 's off with this guy . reese : it might seem like i 'm just grasping at straws here , sonny . sonny : no , no , no , no , no , no , hey , you know , there 's a lot of unanswered questions about -- i do n't like this shrink . but i 'm not going to take a chance with my son . what 's done is done . reese : i am so happy to hear that , because that is a huge weight off my mind . sonny : and i know that i 've told you a lot , and i 'll keep telling you a lot , that it means a lot to me that you 've done what you 've done for michael . reese : well , you know i care deeply for michael and his father . carly : oh ! i did n't know you had a visitor . reese : i did n't know you were here , either . carly : as a matter of fact , i 'm spending the night .

spencer : yes , and if you 're not going after him , then why are you trying to break into carly 's e - mail to , and i quote , `` get the goods `` on him ? franco : that 's not what i 'm ... not ... i know you from somewhere ? spencer : yeah , we met at the park . franco : no , no , no , no , no . i - i 've seen you more recently than that . spencer : i do n't know . maybe . franco : wow . do yourself a favor . do n't get old . it 's horrible . hmm . sonny : ava told you she had the goods on me ? julian : you think i 'm bluffing ? sonny : i do n't think about you at all . julian : [ chuckling ] well , you might want to start , considering i know you murdered aj quartermaine . yeah , i got the whole sordid story , how ava helped you cover it up , got carlos to take the fall . [ sighs ] sonny : you believe this ? julian : well , why should n't i ? sonny : well , i do n't know . i mean , yeah , i mean , ava never lies , right ? julian : [ laughs ] yeah , except she has proof . sonny : have you seen it ? julian : does it matter ? i know it exists . sooner or later , i 'm gon na get my hands on it . ava : wait . if you 're julian 's boss , you 're also the man who sent my brother to kill me . fluke : what choice did i have ? you were feeding information to corinthos . ava : true . but things have changed since then . fluke : indeed . it appears you 've had a falling out with mr. corinthos . and you 've tried to convince your brother to bring you back home . if i 'm not mistaken , you 're safe in your own penthouse . ava : funnily enough , i do n't feel all that safe talking to a man who wanted me dead . fluke : if it 's any consolation , ava , the order to kill you was n't personal . just business . ava : no one understands or appreciates business more than i do . in fact , mr. spencer , maybe you and i ought to be in business together . sam : okay , yeah , so i know it 's a leap . patrick : and technically she ca n't leap . sam : come on . i - i - i personally do n't think nina is as wheelchair bound as she pretends to be . patrick : why would she pretend to be in a wheelchair ? sam : oh , i do n't know . being helpless and -- and , uh , fragile has its advantages . patrick : how would you know ? you 're such a tough , badass chick . sam : you think i 'm a badass ? patrick : [ chuckles ] you do n't ? sam : well , yeah , but i did n't think you did . nina has wanted silas ever since she came out of the coma , right ? so this is a sure - fire way to get in between both of us . patrick : if she was the one behind the door . sam : [ sighs ] you do n't really think it was silas , do you ? patrick : let 's just say i 'm keeping my options open . but if it was nina and she 's the one that told the reporter what she heard , did you confront her ? sam : i tried . patrick : what ? she would n't talk to you ? sam : no , more like she could n't . it was -- it was pretty hard for her to talk with silas ' tongue down her throat . nina : maybe you 're coming down with something . how do you feel ? silas : is that an actual question ? nina : [ chuckles ] i mean , besides the hangover . silas : oh , besides the hangover , if that 's what this even is . [ sighs ] nina : it looks familiar . silas : what does that mean ? nina : my cousin 's wedding . silas : oh , no . do n't even bring that up . nina : [ chuckles ] i 'm just saying , this is how you looked the morning after . silas : [ chuckles ] yeah , that was -- that was a bad night . i remember now . i think i drank a case of champagne or something . nina : remember you were so mad that they were n't serving beer ? silas : what self - respecting open bar does n't have beer ? nina : it was a high - society event , darling , so there 's no beer . silas : i do n't miss those people . nina : i do n't , either . no way . but i do miss those sausage - egg- cheeses at that bodega on second . silas : i would kill for one of those right now . nina : so , my toast is n't cutting it ? is that what you 're saying ? silas : would it have killed you to put a little butter on it ? nina : [ laughs ] we can order something . silas : hmm . oh , wait a minute . do n't you have physical therapy this morning ? nina : oh , but i 'm doing great . that 's -- that 's my therapist 's words . those -- those are n't my words . he -- he -- silas : i know you 're doing great . that 's -- that 's why you got to keep with it . nina : can -- can i take care of you , please ? i mean , you 've helped me so much . can i -- can i help you , please ? i 'm your wife . at least on paper . silas : you promise you 'll go this afternoon ? nina : i cross my heart . in fact , i 'll call them right now and make the appointment . what ? silas : i just remembered sam wanted to tell me something last night . silas : it 's strange that sam would just show up here after ending things . nina : well , maybe she 's having a hard time letting go . i speak from experience . silas : [ sighs ] i guess if it would have been important , she would have stuck around , right ? nina : in all fairness , she did walk in on us making out . silas : do you think it was important ? nina : no . i do n't . want the truth ? silas : please . nina : i think that sam is finally accepting that we belong together . sam : so , there they were making out in all their glory . ugh . patrick : i have to say , i 'm kind of surprised . sam : really ? not as surprised as i was . patrick : i mean , i know that nina and silas are still married , but ... sam : what ? you did n't think that they still had feelings for each other ? patrick : god , sam , i 'm sorry you had to see that . sam : it 's okay . i 'm the one who broke up with him , anyway . patrick : yeah , still , it could n't have been easy . wait a second . did -- did they see you see them ? sam : [ chuckles ] oh , yeah . patrick : no . sam : yeah . patrick : what did silas say ? sam : oh , not much . he seemed , uh , a little drunk or out of it . i have no idea . who knows ? maybe with his inhibitions gone , he acted on his true feelings . patrick : maybe it was just that . maybe it was a drunken mistaken . sam : can we just stop talking about their kiss , please ? that 's not the point . patrick : all right . what 's the point ? sam : i wo n't let nina get away with what she did to you , patrick . patrick : or what she could be doing to silas . brad : it 's a win / win . you could put an end to nikolas ' suffering while making him eternally grateful to you . britt : you think it 's that simple ? brad : yeah ! he 's already begun to thaw with you just being here . imagine if you return his child to him . you would n't have to be the britch anymore . you could be on the straight and narrow from here on out . britt : but i 'll still know what i did . brad : it wo n't erase the guilt , but it 's better than losing nikolas , is n't it ? britt : yeah , i ca n't do that twice . brad : okay , then . operation bring spencer home is a go . britt : [ sighs ] except there 's only one problem . i do n't know where he is . franco : you are missing . spencer : no , i 'm not . i 'm right here . franco : oh , yes , you are . no , it says it right there . you 've been missing for days ! everyone 's looking for you -- your father , the police ! how long have you been in this house ? ! spencer : makes you think , does n't it , the things that can go on right under your nose . franco : not anymore . i 'm ending this . i 'm calling the police . if only there was a number for them that i could call and they 'd come . oh , that 's right . 9 - 1 - 1 . spencer : that 's for emergencies . franco : yeah , well , this is kind of an emergency , right ? missing children ? you know what ? scratch that . i got a better idea . i 'll call that number right there . spencer : i would n't do that if i were you . sonny : believe it , do n't believe it -- i do n't care . but you know what ? i would n't go repeating that story , if i were you . it could be dangerous to your health . julian : you know , we already went over this . you ca n't kill me . sonny : i know , 'cause danny may need your bone marrow someday . you -- you hear about that guy , dr. clay ? his -- his wife , 20 years , woke up out of a coma . it 's an incredible story . completely unresponsive . but everything inside her was working , you know ? heart , check . lungs , check . julian : what 's your point ? sonny : there are a lot of things i can do to you without killing you . i can take this gun right now ... shoot your kneecaps . the rules do n't say you ca n't donate bone marrow from a wheelchair . fluke : what are you suggesting ? ava : a mutually beneficial arrangement . fluke : beneficial how ? ava : julian can be -- shall we say -- squeamish about certain aspects of the business . i assure you , i have no such qualms . and then , of course , there 's also the fact that julian just blew away your second - in - command . fluke : yes , i heard that my associate met with an unfortunate accident . ava : your organization is coming apart at the seams . you need someone here in port charles making sure everything is in line . fluke : an on - site representative ? is that what you suggest ? ava : yes . and perhaps that person could be me . ava : i know the business . i 'm focused , ambitious , and i will have no trouble keeping julian in line . fluke : all desirable attributes , i 'm sure . ava : and we also share a common enemy . sonny . fluke : rumor has it that you are holding some information about mr. corinthos , ava . dirt of the darkest , most destructive kind . ava : the rumors do n't exaggerate . what i have could take sonny out of the game permanently . fluke : by all means , share . ava : i share with those who share with me . fluke : tempting offer . but you have been less than reliable in the past . ava : my circumstances have changed . i have a baby on the way . i need to protect my future . fluke : i could care less about your maternal struggles , ava . i have my own goals , my own objectives . tell me what you know about corinthos , otherwise you 're wasting my time . ava : oh , on the contrary . i think this conversation has been very beneficial . you have a vacancy . i need a job . and a bonus -- i have information on your -- correction -- our worst enemy . all the more reason we should be in business together . so , what do you say ? do we have a deal ? sonny : you know what ? there 's no point . why waste the bullets ? you 're gon na do yourself in anyway . julian : really ? how 's that ? sonny : well , living with your sister . i mean , she screwed me over in no time flat . how long before she does you in ? julian : i can handle her . sonny : you know what ? now that you said that , i need a request . actually , no , it 's an order . julian : well , that 's interesting , 'cause i do n't take orders from you . sonny : ava 's carrying precious cargo -- my flesh and blood , to be exact . i 'm gon na do everything i can to protect that baby , which means i want to keep it in city limits . you understand ? julian : well , i do n't think it 's rocket science you do n't want ava fleeing port charles with your child -- or grandchild . sonny : yeah . that 's why i had her at my place . yeah . so i could look after her . now it 's your responsibility . [ laughs ] julian : aye , aye , captain . sonny : anything happens to that baby , it 's on you , and i will make you pay . julian : are we done ? sonny : yeah . we 're all set . hey ! hey , guys ! come on out ! [ sighs ] what do you think of that , huh ? you know what ? i was looking at this one earlier . it 'd look great in the tasting room . go ahead . take that one . that 's nice . really like that . yeah . go ahead . pleasure doing business with you . and one more thing . ava thinks that , you know , she 's locked up so tight that i ca n't reach her . but do n't forget that there is no fortress that can not be broken into . franco : why would you not want me to call that number and report you missing ? would n't that be a relief to your no - doubt - concerned parent or guardian ? spencer : well , 'cause then i 'll have to tell josslyn 's mom that you 're trying to break into her e - mail . franco : no . you would n't do that . spencer : oh , i would . so here 's how it 's going to be . franco : okay . spencer : i 'm not gon na tell anyone what you 're up to . and you 're not gon na tell anyone what i 'm up to . franco : okay . it 's a deal . spencer : i 'm not finished ! you 're gon na stop whatever you 're trying to do to hurt my uncle sonny . now do we have a deal ? brad : wait , wait , wait . i thought you have been talking to spencer . britt : i have . but i 've been sticking so close to nikolas that i have n't been able to get a location out of him . should i call him right now ? brad : yes . get the kid on the phone . britt : okay . brad : hurry up . britt : okay . brad : all right , i got to get back to the hospital . i guess i 'll be taking these . britt : thank you so much for everything . brad : well , with any luck , you wo n't be needing these . let me know how it goes . britt : i will . [ door opens ] britt : [ sighs ] spencer , it 's britt . we ca n't keep worrying your father like this . i need to know where you are so i can bring you home . will you call me as soon as you get this message ? enough is enough . [ sighs ] sam : forget what nina is doing to silas . this woman cost you your job . patrick : actually , that 's not entirely true . even if nina was the one that told the reporter what she heard , it was n't a lie . sam : yeah , but , patrick , no one was supposed to know . patrick : yeah , but , sam , i did have a thought of killing rafe on the table when i was supposed to be saving his life , and that 's why i lost my job . busting nina 's not gon na change that . sam : no , i understand that . i know you 're not gon na get your job back . but my whole point is , it was a -- it was a dirty move , and i am not okay with that . patrick : but you 're okay with her duping silas ? sam : no . no , of -- of course not . and i know what you 're thinking , and do n't do that . i am not some teenager who 's out for revenge . patrick : [ chuckles ] sam : stop . i 'm not . i 've just -- i 'm -- i want closure , do n't you , to know what the hell happened . patrick : yeah , i would love that , but i also think you have to be honest . i mean , there 's a part of you that 's concerned for silas . sam : well , yeah , i mean , of course i 'm concerned for silas . if nina 's lying about being in a wheelchair , he needs to know . patrick : okay , so first we need to prove that nina was the one listening . sam : `` we `` ? patrick : yeah . yeah , yeah . i 've never been a big adventure guy . sam : what -- what are you talking about ? you used to drive racecars back in the day . patrick : that was different . there was method to the madness , you know . there was guidelines , procedure , kind of like medicine , but this ... sam : this . [ chuckles ] this is crazy . it is . patrick : let 's go on a mission . let 's solve some crimes . it 's probably the only time that i can actually get out of my own head . sam : oh , i know exactly what you mean . when jason died ... there is no better cure for grief than adrenaline . patrick : okay . so , first things first . we find out if nina 's actually physically capable of being on the roof . sam : yeah . we need to know what nina 's medical condition really is . silas : i ca n't believe you talked me into this . nina : [ laughs ] we used to play this all the time . come on . show me what you got . silas : yeah ? nina : yeah . oh . nice . um ... but i so win . silas : no ! nina : yeah . read 'em and weep . [ laughs ] so , take ... it ... off ... doctor . silas : will you stop throwing cards at me ? you really want me to do this ? nina : yes ! yes ! silas : come on . in this condition ? you want me to actu -- ohh . you 're a horrible person . nina : [ laughs ] silas : all right . here we go . nina : horribly good . silas : whoo - hoo ! nina : whoo ! [ chuckles ] it 's a lot sexier than somebody stripping from their wheelchair , so ... silas : i think you could pull it off . nina , i - i ca n't do this anymore . nina : okay . so , we can just play straight poker . silas : i 'm all - in . nina : you deal . silas : okay . that way i can cheat . nina : [ chuckles ] you always did . silas : thanks . nina : so , i forgot to tell you that j came by after you went to sleep . silas : oh , it 's kind of late . nina : it 's never too late for j . we have n't seen each other in awhile . he wanted to check up on me . silas : did you pass inspection ? nina : with flying colors . silas : good . nina : hmm . in fact ... i have a surprise for you . silas : you know , i hate surprises . nina : well , you 'll like this one . silas : ca n't you just tell me ? nina : i have to show you . silas : okay . whoa , whoa ! nina : no , no , i got -- shh . just ... [ sighs ] [ grunts ] [ sighs ] ta - da . julian : oh . i 'm glad to see you 're taking care of the baby . ava : since when do you care about your niece or nephew ? julian : well , we are still family , ava , even if you do make it difficult sometimes . ava : oh . so there is a sibling bond after all . i 'm so glad to hear that . in fact , i 've been thinking , we should start working together again . like the good , old days . julian : as i recall , they were n't all that good . ava : is that a no ? julian : [ chuckles ] well , let 's just say i 'm not thrilled at the prospect . ava : well , that 's too bad . because i just had a long conversation with your boss , and he thinks it 's an excellent idea . franco : i do n't feel good about this . spencer : you do n't have to feel good about it . you just have to do it . franco : okay . fine . i wo n't tell anybody what i know , and you wo n't tell anybody what you know . spencer : i 'm glad we understand each other . franco : right . spencer : [ clears throat ] franco : yeah . nikolas : arguing with your brother again ? britt : [ chuckles ] guy 's really gon na regret i ever came into his life . nikolas : i seriously doubt that . britt : any leads on the tip line ? nikolas : no . i 'm really running out of ways to keep going here , britt . britt : maybe you should just stop . please , nikolas . just go lie down , rest your eyes . nikolas : i ca n't . what if he -- what if he calls or something ? britt : i 'll answer . you are verging on mental and physical exhaustion . i know . i 'm -- i 'm a doctor . nikolas : there 's no way i 'll be able to relax , okay ? please -- britt : come on . just for a little while . i promise i wo n't let you miss anything . nikolas : okay . silas : how long have you been able to stand ? nina : not long . silas : why did n't you say anything ? nina : oh , i wanted it to be a surprise , not that it 's that big of a deal , but ... silas : no , this is -- this is incredible . nina : yeah . silas : wait , wait , you okay ? easy , easy . nina : yeah , i 'm sorry . i can only do it for a few seconds . silas : a few seconds more next week . i - i think i told you physical therapy 's very important . nina : i know you did tell me . we 're making it all about you ? silas : no . nina : [ chuckles ] silas : this is your accomplishment . you did really good . i 'm proud of you . nina : i worked really hard , really , really hard . i have a long way to go . silas : one day at a time . nina : definitely . it 's -- it 's gon na be awhile before i can , you know , run up and down stairs again . patrick : if nina 's lying about her condition , she 's definitely lying to her therapist . sam : well , if we want to find out what 's really going on with nina , there 's only one place to go . patrick : her mind . sam : you 're hysterical , you know that ? patrick : i try . thank you . sorry . go ahead . sam : okay , uh , the place is called crichton - clark . it 's in westchester . it 's -- it 's the place that she woke up right after her coma . we 're gon na find answers at that clinic . it 's the only way to get to the truth .

valerie : so , the vial i found on franco tested positive for derisifol ? jordan : it looks that way . amy : that 's what i said . jordan : the lab 's doing scans on the samples from ms. prescott . curtis : wait , derisifol . that 's the drug that killed all those other patients , right ? amy : and franco just happened to be carrying a vial ? [ scoffs ] i knew that guy was bad news . jordan : okay , well , we ca n't jump to any conclusions . amy : i think we can . i read some of the report on my way up to you . i saw the results of the fingerprint testing . jordan : nurse driscoll , you are not a police officer , okay ? you were told to deliver these files , not read them . valerie : what 's it say , boss ? jordan : uh , that the only fingerprints on the vial ... ... were franco 's . [ scene_break ] franco : [ blows ] elizabeth : so , where exactly are we ? franco : this is my studio . and , uh , i brought you here because this is a place where i feel very alive -- truly alive . i 've been here a lot lately . i ca n't eat . i ca n't sleep . i 've just been making art . and , uh , in those moments , nothing else matters . all the rules and judgments of the world just fall away . elizabeth : franco , what do you want with me ? [ scene_break ] [ slow - tempo music playing ] nina : [ sniffles ] bartender : i 've heard of crying in your beer , but this is your first drink . you okay ? nina : thank you . yeah , i 'm fine . i just , um -- i 'm reading all of these responses that i got to the organ - donor story that i wrote for crimson , and , um ... it just spurred all these people to tell me their stories . i mean , they 're ... [ voice breaking ] these are incredible , incredible parents who , um , were willing to do anything for their children . i 'm just inspired by them . while other parents -- they 'll do anything to exploit their children .

[ smooching ] [ scene_break ] sam : okay , there 's still no sign of any boats passing . dante : well , i do n't think anyone saw us go down . sam : [ sighs ] ava : well , once again , we 're stranded on an island in the mediterranean . the upside is we 're not dead ... yet , anyway . lulu : hey . how 's kevin ? laura : sleeping in the most comfortable spot i could find for him . ava : oh , is there room for all of us back there ? sam : someone has to stay awake to make sure we do n't miss a boat passing . dante , i nominate you . dante : yeah , sure , if you guys want to take a rest . sam : i 'm gon na go look for jason . i 'm heading back to the crash site . i 'm gon na start there . dante : okay , then i go with you . lulu : no , dante ! sam : i have to find him . laura : but we should stay together , and i 'm not gon na leave kevin . lulu : what if jason finds his way back here , and you wind up lost instead ? dante : okay , look . what if we just wait a little bit longer , till the sun comes up ? i got to go back to the wreckage and look for a radio , anyway . sam : no . what -- what if jason is hurt ? he 's not gon na make it through the night . i have to look for him now . [ scene_break ] valerie : franco had a plausible explanation for why he was in the patient 's room . he said he was bringing her a small statue that she made in art therapy . and amy checked and confirmed that the statue was in her room . curtis : you know , um , ms . prescott could have taken the statue into the room herself . did , um , she confirm franco 's story ? valerie : no , she was sleeping . amy : i checked . ms. prescott was fine . all of her vitals were stable , and her monitors were functioning normally . curtis : what made you suspicious in the first place ? amy : franco , obviously . i saw him go into the patient 's room , and he was acting all ... shifty . curtis : shifty . would you say he was acting suspicious , maybe , or on edge ? amy : no . he was just ... ominous . and he was holding a flower , like one you 'd put on someone 's grave . valerie : a flower ? or like you 'd give to someone who 's in the hospital . amy : i guess . but i was right , was n't i ? he killed her . jordan : okay , we do n't know that for sure . curtis : where exactly did you find that vial ? jordan : curtis . it 's fine . i 'll take it from here . curtis : right . uh ...

[ chuckles ] franco : yeah ? okay . i mean , i wanted to create a space that was separate from the world , that was separate from reality , and , yeah , it 's a little weird , because i 'm a little weird . and i brought you here because i was hoping you 'd get to know me a little better 'cause i really want to get to know you a little better . and the floating rib -- i 'm just not comfortable there , where half the hospital staff goes after work for a drink . a drink . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] franco : a drink . i did promise you champagne , right ? [ clatter ] franco : all right . so , uh , be prepared to be impressed by how well i can pop a cork . unless -- i 'll tell you what , why do n't -- why do n't you do this , and , uh , i 'll let you pour it in the glasses , too , if you want . elizabeth : okay , that -- that sounds good .

[ scene_break ] jordan : we need to find franco now . valerie : okay . willis and i will go to his place and pick him up . jordan : okay . amy : you could do that , but you wo n't find him there . jordan : and why is that , nurse driscoll ? amy : he 's on a date with elizabeth webber . jordan : mm . amy : i have a feeling that she would only agree to go on a date with him if it was in a very public place . i may have heard something in passing . jordan : right . call elizabeth webber , please . do you have her contact number ? we need to find out where franco could have gone . does he have an office ? amy : not really . he mostly keeps to the art - therapy room . jordan : i mean , what about -- what about coworkers ? i mean , there must be someone that we can talk to who he shared his information with , his plans . amy : franco usually works alone . besides elizabeth and dr. obrecht , everyone who works here pretty much wants nothing to do with him . jordan : okay , well , there must be someone -- someone who can give us a little insight into franco 's plans . valerie : do you think he 'd hurt elizabeth ? jordan : well , i mean , who can really say , right ? franco -- he has a well- documented history of violence . he got off on a technicality . i mean , people believe that getting rid of the tumor did not get rid of the threat . [ elevator dings ] amy : dr. maddox does the psych evaluations on everyone on staff , which i think is pretty smart [ chuckles ] 'cause some of the people here are real doozies . [ chuckles ] not that i 've ever peeked at any of their files . jordan : elizabeth 's phone number . amy : right . jordan : dr. maddox . andré : commissioner ashford . were you looking for me ? jordan : uh , not exactly . okay . but i - i could use your help . [ scene_break ] franco : sorry about that . i thought i had the glasses ready , but they were still packed up . here you go . elizabeth : mm . franco : how 'd that phone call to the cops go ? elizabeth : i 'm texting my babysitter . franco : mm - hmm . with your exact location ? i get it . elizabeth : well , i do like her to know where i am . it 's just not going through right now . franco : i told you . reception 's crappy down here . elizabeth : oh , there it goes . it went through . [ chuckles ] franco : great . you feel better ? come on . [ glasses clatter ] pour us these glasses of champagne . elizabeth : oh , right . of course . it 's kind of dark in here . do you want to turn the lights on so i can see what i 'm doing ? franco : yeah , sure . no problem . elizabeth : what is all this stuff ? franco : just stuff . stuff i found inspiring , stuff i found along the way and just held onto . [ champagne fizzes ] elizabeth : is this all new ? franco : mm , i do n't know . i mean , kind of . i have n't been here that long . i only got the space after nina broke up with me . been painting like a madman . i mean -- okay , i 've been very productive . that 's what i mean . it 's just that , to date , my work has always been very dark , very angry . that seems to bother a lot of people . [ scene_break ] curtis : nina , what are you doing ? nina : hey . i told you when i texted you , i 'm working on something for carly . curtis : is this still that , um , organ - transplant story you 've been working on ? nina : mm - hmm . yeah . carly told me not to pursue it , but i think she 's getting some pushback from family members . i 'm not related to any of those people , so i do n't have to consider their feelings . curtis : so you 're pursuing it . nina : yeah . curtis : okay . nina : carly needs my help , and i 'm gon na help her . curtis : by doing the very thing she clearly asked you not to do . nina : yeah . you want to help me ? [ scene_break ] sam : jason could be disoriented . he could be walking in the wrong direction . i have to find him . dante : sam , sam . you have to face the fact that jason might not have made it . sam : he got off of that plane before it exploded . dante : he stayed behind to shut the engines down to try and prevent an explosion . ava : and he failed . lulu : shut up , ava . laura : sam has every right to hold out hope , ava . ava : sam is delusional . and you 're not doing her any favors by enabling her . it 's sad . it is . we all owe jason our lives . he gave us time to get away , but there 's no way he -- he could have gotten away himself . i 'm sorry , sam . jason 's got to be dead . [ scene_break ] finn : you -- you two know each other ? jax : yeah , you could -- you could say that . carly : dr. finn -- dr. hamilton finn -- this is my ex - husband , jasper jacks . of course . josslyn 's father . finn : she talks about visiting you all the time , and she certainly shares your appreciation for bearded dragons . jax : i was just complimenting dr. finn on his companion . carly : josslyn was watching roxy for dr. finn . jax : of course . this is who she 's been telling me about during our phone conversations . carly : does josslyn know you 're here ? because she did n't mention it to me . jax : well , i texted her earlier tonight , but she 's probably too busy on the lacrosse field to notice . i just had some business in town , so i thought i 'd surprise her . finn : i do n't have to tell you , but you have a great daughter . jax : i 'd have to agree . carly : dr. finn is , the , uh , one who helped me uncover the name of the administrator who assisted in josslyn 's transplant . jax : well , thank you for your efforts , but we wo n't need you to look into that anymore . [ scene_break ] nina : so , these e - mails are just the tip of the iceberg . i know that if i pursue this , i can help carly find the organ donor . curtis : okay , so -- and you want me to look , too . what exactly do you want me to do ? nina : well , i mean , i do n't want you to do anything illegal . but , um , you 've been so great on all the other investigations i 've given you . what 's one more ? curtis : all right . as long as you 're paying . i suppose i could ride along and fact - check and find out what these fools have been telling you . what are you doing here , anyway ? you 're a beautiful woman . why are you at the bar alone ? [ pool balls clacking ] nina : it turns out that my life partner -- he was n't in it for life , which means he 's not much of a partner at all . curtis : mm . [ scene_break ] franco : so , i - i had brain surgery , right ? and i thought , when they removed the tumor , that they 'd removed my motivation and my ability to paint . but lately , i just -- i - i really feel the urge to paint again , and i have all these new feelings that i 'm trying to express . it must feel so good to just paint . franco : it might be terrible . i do n't know . i ca n't tell anymore . well , no , art is subjective . everybody might not like or appreciate your work , but you certainly have n't lost your talent . your confidence , on the other hand , is -- franco : really ? you think i lack confidence ? it sounds to me like you 're getting it back . art is how we see the world . franco : i really hope you 're right . there 's something i want to show you . okay . franco : it 's , uh ... [ sighs ] it 's something that i made , and it 's not motivated by anger . it 's motivated by a whole - new set of feelings , and i just hope that it is n't something that you find too disturbing . [ scene_break ] andre : so , the latest victim died after a visit from franco . jordan : and a vial that he was carrying tested positive for traces of derisifol . valerie : commish . elizabeth 's phone keeps going to voicemail . jordan : what ? damn it . andre : elizabeth webber ? jordan : yes . we think that she might be with franco , but , obviously , we need to talk to him , but we 're having a little difficulty tracking him down . so , in the interim , i 'm just trying to cover as much ground as possible here at the hospital . andre : well , i did do a psych eval on franco when he was first reinstated at the hospital . jordan : and ... i suppose those records are confidential ? andre : well , not necessarily . they 're a part of franco 's employee history , so it 's at the discretion of the hospital whether or not to release them . jordan : okay , well , we all know about franco 's violent past . is there anything that you found unusual about franco ? andre : [ sighs ] franco did seem to have an unnatural fixation with death . [ elevator dings , doors open ] amy : here are the keys to franco 's art - therapy room . jordan : thank you . uh , valerie , can you check all of the supply closets here with nurse driscoll ? see if franco left anything behind in one of them . i will check the art - therapy room . valerie : okay . andre : good luck . jordan : hey , uh [ clears throat ] would you join me ? i mean , i do n't -- i do n't know if we 'll find anything , but it sure would help to have a professional there to analyze it . andre : of course . jordan : i really do appreciate this . i do . uh , are you sure you do n't mind ? andre : why would i mind ? we 're just working together in a strictly professional sense . we 'll leave our personal lives out of it . [ clears throat ] [ elevator dings ] [ scene_break ] sam : i mean , i made the mistake of giving up on jason once before . i will never make that mistake again . he is alive , and i 'm gon na find him . ava : well , you -- you ca n't search in the dark . you should at least wait till morning . dante : look , if you go looking now , something could happen to you . then we have to come searching for you . you become a liability . sam : oh , gee , thanks . dante : look , look . just wait for the sun to come up . it wo n't be long . i 'll go with you . i 'll be right with you searching for him . sam : no , you can wait for the sun to come up . i 'm not . i 'm going now . [ breathing heavily ] dante : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . you all right ? [ scene_break ] valerie : commissioner . the closets appear to be undisturbed . nothing out of the ordinary . jordan : i wish i could say the same . we need to track down franco asap . valerie : what did you find ? amy : that 's mr. ellis . he was the first derisifol victim . wait , is he dead in that picture ? jordan : no , it -- it would appear that franco has drawn this portrait in the style of a death mask . valerie : what 's in the corner ? jordan : it 's a number 1 . and this is mrs. jenkins , number 2 . dr. mayes -- number 3 . amy : ohh . i ca n't believe it . franco 's drawing pictures of all his victims ? jordan : well [ sighs ] only the ones who have died . he did n't draw anything of bobbie spencer or lucas jones . andre : well , truth be told , this does n't mean franco had anything to do with the murders . valerie : well , you use inkblots to determine a patient 's mental health . an actual picture of victims is n't good enough for you ? andre : franco works in a place where people are dying in a frightening way . amy : so does the rest of the staff . i do n't draw any creepy photos . andre : franco is used to expressing himself through his art . this could be viewed as a coping mechanism . jordan : well , that does n't really explain the next page . `` 4 . `` valerie : and it 's blank . how would he know there 'd be another victim ? jordan : we need to question franco now and find out where exactly is he taking nurse webber ? [ scene_break ] you want to show me one of your new paintings ? franco : i did . yeah , i ... [ stammers ] i do . [ sighs ] i 'm a little nervous . [ chuckling ] why ? why are you nervous ? you 've shown your art all over the world . franco : yeah , but this is you . what ? franco : i painted you . i told you on the elevator , i think about you . [ sighs ] i just ... promise me you wo n't laugh . yeah , n - no , i 'm not gon na laugh . franco . it 's beautiful . [ scene_break ] curtis : you 're still hurting over franco ? [ slow - tempo music playing ] nina : [ chuckles ] yeah . franco is one of the few people in my life who really understood me , who really loved me for who i was . i just ... [ sighs ] i got to a point in my life -- i think i outgrew him , and i changed . and i just do n't think he could follow . i mean , do n't get me wrong . i 'm far from perfect . i have a lot of faults , but i 'm working on them . but i 'm proud of what i 've done . i 'm proud of what i 've accomplished as a woman . and i really like myself . i do n't think franco could deal with that . curtis : why do you think that is ? nina : i think there 's a part of franco that even he 's afraid of -- a part of him that he ca n't trust . curtis : so franco ca n't trust himself ? nina : um , i think there 's a part of franco that even he ca n't control . [ scene_break ] finn : um , sorry . carly was the one who asked for my help , not you . carly : i - i was gon na tell you when -- when you got back from your trip that i was dropping the search . finn : you were so insistent about finding josslyn 's donor . why the sudden change of mind ? jax : well ... because joss asked us to stop , and as her parents , we respect her wishes . finn : yes . that is one way of looking at it , but you 're making a mistake . [ scene_break ] laura : poor thing 's probably dehydrated . lulu : we should try to find some freshwater . laura : yeah . dante : hey . you okay ? sam : what happened ? lulu : you fainted . just stay still and rest , okay ? sam : no . no , i got to find jason . lulu : no . you are in no condition to go wandering off looking for him . laura : yeah , they 're right , honey . you should stay here . what if you were to faint again ? sam : i appreciate your concern . i was just a little bit dizzy . but i 'm fine now . [ rumbling ] ava : wait ! do you hear that ? i think there 's a boat out there . we 're saved . [ scene_break ] finn : i , uh , certainly understand that josslyn might be -- [ sighs ] what 's the word ? -- embarrassed about her transplant , and , certainly , the decision about finding the donor is ultimately up to you , but i - i just want to make sure it 's an informed decision . jax : well , thank you for everything you 've done for us , doctor . we do appreciate it , but we 'll take it from here . finn : of course . of course . well , i - i 'll be on my way . i 'll ... such a beautiful night . i think i 'll take roxy for a walk . carly : good night . jax : good night . carly : you did n't have to push so hard . i told you i was dropping the search . i was just about to tell finn . jax : you were ? carly : yes , of course . why would n't i ? jax : [ scoffs ] well , it depends . i mean , you 're not one to give in easily . have you really changed your mind ? are you backing off the search ? [ scene_break ] nina : hi , there . what 's up ? curtis : [ chuckles ] commissioner . i did n't think i 'd be seeing you again so soon . jordan : really ? you 're always one step ahead of me . curtis : you know me . jordan : nina , uh , i 'm actually really glad to see you . perhaps you could help . we 've been trying to track down franco . [ pool balls clacking ] jordan : we need to ask him some questions . there was a coworker who thought maybe he 's bringing elizabeth here . nina : uh , i ca n't help you with that . he 's not here . see ? they are n't here . curtis : we have n't , um , seen either one of them . why is this so urgent ? valerie : i know where franco is . jordan : you managed to reach elizabeth ? valerie : no , but i called her house . the babysitter said that elizabeth texted her that she and franco are at the art studio . jordan : okay , uh , thank you . sorry to interrupt . let 's go . nina : wow . wow . well , franco is not wasting any time moving on , is he ? curtis : screw franco , okay ? besides being a psychopath , the guy 's a damn idiot . [ chuckles ] nina : you think so ? curtis : yeah . well ... you are a beautiful , intelligent , vivacious woman . i ca n't believe you 're at the bar alone drowning out your sorrows . look , i 'm gon na find you a cab . come on . come on . nina : uh , no , no , no , no . i 'm -- i 'm okay . thank you . i 'm gon na finish my drink . i 'm just gon na cut my losses . i 'm good . [ chuckles ] curtis : that does n't sound smart , okay ? look , you 're not losing me . i will be around tomorrow . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i always knew objectively you were talented , but i did n't know until this very moment -- you 're really gifted . franco : you 're not just saying that ? you really think that ? elizabeth : no . yes , i really , really think that . what made you paint me like this ? franco : you 're beautiful . this is how i see you . you 're a vision of beauty in a world of chaos . elizabeth : i never expected to see myself like this . it kind of reminds me of a renoir . [ both laugh ] franco : that 's funny . [ chuckles ] all my old - school , back - in - the - day , new york , snobby art friends -- they 'd scoff at the impressionists . they said they were prosaic , that their eyes were gauzed with romanticism . i 've always secretly admired their work , as like an escape to another world . as a kid , i spent hours just wishing i were part of `` the boating party . `` elizabeth : is there a reason you wanted to escape ? franco : i think the impressionists -- you know , they had -- they had the right idea . art should be about finding beauty in an imperfect world . or -- or , if the world fails you , you know , just creating an entirely improved reality . elizabeth : well , i think the impressionists were masters of light and that they did n't try to improve reality . i think they painted it accurately for the first time . franco : really ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . franco : wow . you 're completely wrong . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] franco : but i had no idea you knew so much about art . elizabeth : i used to dream about being an artist . franco : really ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . franco : you should do that . why did n't you tell me that ? elizabeth : [ scoffs ] i do n't know . i ... [ sighs ] i became a nurse and then i had three kids , and it 's just not who i see myself as anymore . and i kind of like to think that i have n't completely lost my talent . [ chuckles ] franco : i 'm sure someone as beautiful as you would have no problem creating beautiful things . elizabeth : why would you think that would be disturbing ? franco : because i painted you without you knowing that i was painting you . i do n't know , i can see why someone would that that was a little stalker - y . elizabeth : i do n't think so . franco : that 's great . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] franco : 'cause i 'd really like to paint you again . elizabeth : on one condition . franco : okay . what ? elizabeth : i get to paint you . [ scene_break ] [ indistinct conversations ] amy : hi , dr. finn . finn : oh , hi . amy : oh , you 've got your lizard again . i do . she , uh -- she has a name . she prefers `` roxy , `` and the kids down on the fourth floor , they love her . amy : what if she runs away and jumps on somebody ? finn : you have nothing to worry about . or does she ? amy : [ chuckles nervously ] well , you look a lot better than the last time i saw you . finn : well , thank you . thank you for noticing . and i was wondering if maybe you could help me . amy : with what ? finn : re - establishing my lab . amy : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] ava : there goes our one chance at rescue . lulu : okay , first of all , that is not our only chance . second of all , for all we know , those could have been valentin 's men out searching for us . dante : well , unfortunately , we 're not gon na be able to tell if a boat is hostile or not . laura : i 'm gon na go check on kevin . dante : hey , are you okay ? lulu : yeah , i 'm fine . do n't worry about me . dante : all right , well , that 's not possible . what happened ? did you get hurt or something and you did n't tell me ? lulu : no , no , no . i , um ... i found something back on cassadine island that upset me . dante : are those luke 's ? lulu : i sure hope not . i found it in one of the access tunnels . it was on a skeleton .

[ coughs ] yeah , well , no , actually , somehow things got a little turned around , and somehow , she ended up asking me . curtis : well , that was n't wise at all . look , i 'd like to think that i 'm as enlightened as the next guy , but there 's something to be said about tradition . now , beneath hayden 's hardened exterior , she 's really mushy , you know ? she 's a softy , and it 'd have been a good look if you asked her . finn : i was going to . she beat me to the punch , all right , but i 'm gon na make it up to her . curtis : good , 'cause she 's a hell of a woman . finn : you do n't have to tell me . curtis : the first time i met her ... finn : i suspect you 're gon na tell me . curtis : ... that girl was a hot mess . she had issues . some of them self- inflicted , some not so much . now , i will say , no one has worked harder to turn it all around . no one .

[ scene_break ] carly : you kidnapped sonny 's nephew . you used a child to lure sonny somewhere , because you wanted to ambush him . but i know sonny . he figured out that it was a trap . hell , you could n't kill him in puerto rico . i know you could n't do it here . garvey : [ breathing heavily ] i did . i killed him . carly : okay , let 's say you got the jump on sonny . so maybe he 's ... hurt or you left him somewhere . let me tell you how it 's gon na go down . sonny 's people , they know you 're here , and they know you 're vulnerable . and if i can get to you , they can , too . and they 're a -- well , they 're a lot more persuasive than i am . they will make you tell them what happened to sonny . and you may not be able to walk when you 're finished , and you may need more surgery . hell , you may just bleed to death , but you will tell them . so why not spare yourself a whole lot of pain and just tell me ? garvey : [ breathing heavily ] [ door opens ] dante : carly ? what the hell you doing ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i been thinking a lot about you over the years ... ... you know , the life you could have had . the way you died was so unfair . stone : i had a great life , sonny , and a lot of that was because of you . sonny : stone , i was n't there to save you . you know that . i should have been . stone : you 're wrong . you did save me . it is not how long you live . it 's what you do with the life you were given . sooner or later , everybody dies . sonny : is that why you 're here ? because i 'm dying ? stone : that 's up to you .

[ scene_break ] julian : so you said that , um ... sam did n't seem like herself . how so ? ava : well , she ... she seemed fragile . and she seemed ... feverishly , um , determined . and when i say `` feverish , `` i mean literally . julian : can you remember what she said ? ava : i remember that she seemed to be very angry with sonny . julian : yeah , she 's -- she 's been going on about that . ava : sam made a point of blaming him for this , for the fire . she also gave me sort of a pep talk , and i really could n't tell if she was encouraging me to -- to move on from all that sonny has done to me or encouraging me to destroy him . [ scene_break ] finn : there was a time that hayden and i had more baggage than an airport at christmastime . curtis : hm . i hear you . finn : somehow , hayden was able to unload hers just in time to help me through my addiction . curtis : it 's a process . finn : hey , you were there for a lot of that , and i just want you to know , i 'll always appreciate it . curtis : well , you know , i ai n't going nowhere . but i do have some expert advice to give you . finn : let me stop you there . am i gon na find any of this advice either `` a , `` preachy , or `` b , `` annoying ? curtis : almost certainly . finn : okay , that 's good to know ahead of time . go ahead , lay it on me . curtis : about the aforementioned addiction ... happiness ai n't gon na protect you from a relapse .

[ scene_break ] curtis : addiction is complex . you can never let your guard down , you know ? you got ta stay in control of those cravings and go to meetings . finn : i been doing all that . curtis : good . because then the need to use will fade , and it will sound less like a scream and feel more like an echo . sometimes that echo is far away . sometimes it 's up close . finn : yeah , it 's getting really close . curtis : but either way , it 's always there . finn : you still think that ? you hear the echoes ? curtis : from time to time , man , i think we all do . but the important thing is that we fought it once , we can fight it again . but , uh , as for now , yeah . i , uh , got mine under control . finn : for now ? what ... what 's going on ? curtis : man , while hayden 's been able to push her past off a cliff so successfully , jordan and i , we , uh ... we have n't been so successful with that .. finn : what happened ? curtis : my aunt stella is what happened . she moved to port charles , and she unearthed all this history between jordan and me , and it ripped us clean apart . [ scene_break ] carly : just got off the phone with michael . he confirmed that no one has seen sonny , not one of his associates . jordan : i have every available resource at the pcpd looking for sonny , okay ? now , we have n't been able to locate his car or where he might have met garvey , but i am telling you , i am working so hard until i find out . carly : since when did you become so diligent on sonny 's behalf ? you 've been trying to put him in jail since you came to town . jordan : carly -- carly : so if he winds up dead , you can cross your big search for him off your to - do list . [ scene_break ] dante : you come clean about what you did to sonny , and i 'll see about getting you a reduced sentence . garvey : no , no prison . dante : no prison ? no prison ? what do you mean ? yes , prison . yes . you broke parole . you bribed u.s . marshals . you took a child . you took a child from a park , and you kept him as your prisoner alone overnight . garvey : i do n't know what you 're talking -- dante : i do n't think you understand . we have enough dna evidence to secure a conviction , okay ? what i 'm saying is , i can maybe send you to a nicer prison , or i can make sure you do n't go to that prison for the rest of your life if you talk to me , okay ? so i 'm gon na ask you one more time . one more time , garvey . you tell me . you tell me what you did to my father . garvey : [ breathing heavily ] i -- [ monitor beeping ] [ scene_break ] sonny : you know about my boy ? stone : tell me about him , anyway . sonny : morgan stone corinthos . named after my two best friends , you and jason . stone : i 'm honored . sonny : he was a sweet little boy . he loved baseball and penguins . and [ sighs ] he 's the only boy in the world that ate his broccoli . [ laughs ] but as he got -- as he got older , he started getting reckless and impulsive and volatile . not that he was a mean kid , 'cause he had a generous heart , but for a long time , i did n't see what was right in front of me . i did n't recognize what i had passed to him . carly was the first to face it . he was -- he was bipolar , like i am . he had that darkness , and , you know , the high highs and the lows that were crushing . and i thought the bipolar was gon na destroy my boy , but he was so strong . he just fought his demons , and he won . but he died . for no good reason . and i guess i been -- i been trying to figure out how to live in a world without him . maybe i just found out . [ scene_break ] josslyn : [ sighs ] oh , my god . nelle : it 's okay , joss . josslyn : no . no . all i 've been doing is bad - mouthing sonny up and down to mom . like -- i thought -- i mean , since the way he 's lived his life , you know , he deserves whatever 's coming to him . i 'm sorry , michael . i 'm so , so sorry . michael : oh , hey , it 's okay . look , sonny understands why you 're mad at him , and he 'd be the first one to forgive you . [ scene_break ] jordan : carly , i understand why you think i have a bias towards sonny . carly : yeah , 'cause you view him as a criminal . jordan : no , because sonny is a citizen of this town , and it is my responsibility to protect and serve him , regardless of what i think about his business practices . and that 's not even why i have people working double shifts . carly : then why ? why would you spare even one of your men to save my husband ? jordan : because of my son . sonny was a friend to him when he really needed somebody by his side , so that makes this search personal to me . trust me when i tell you , carly , i 'm doing my very best . [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] dante : what 's happening with him ? doctor : he 's bleeding internally . we need to get him back into surgery . your questions will have to wait till tomorrow .

[ door slams ] hayden : [ crying ] [ scene_break ] finn : regrettably , curtis , it 's probably my turn to tell you a few things that you probably do n't want to hear . curtis : aw , damn . finn : i know . curtis : turnabout , right ? finn : yeah . curtis : okay , lay it on me , brother . finn : you think there 's any chance that your aunt is using her convalescence to control you a little bit and maybe get back at jordan for whatever it is she did to her ? curtis : the woman is sick . i never thought about motives . finn : just saying , i 've seen patients do this , even subconsciously use their illness to manipulate loved ones . they do n't even know they 're doing it . curtis : i do n't really care what my auntie 's movies are . i 'm with jordan . it makes her sick . finn : uh ... no . no , it does n't . curtis : what do you mean ? i was there . finn : [ chuckles ] uh , listen , last time i checked , i 'm a doctor , one who actually specialized in illnesses that makes people sick . curtis : it 's not my day today . finn : bacteria , viruses , mutant cells , cheese fries -- these are all things that make people sick . curtis : okay , what about stress , emotions , all that kind of stuff ? finn : well , stress can undermine a compromised immune system , but her body was already under siege by something physical . neither you or jordan caused her stroke . curtis : okay , but the events and the relationships that cause the stress , what about that ? finn : well , of course , it does . look , i 'm not talking to you as a doctor right now . i 'm talking to you as a -- a friend . if you want to be with her , do n't let your aunt stand in the way of you being with jordan . [ scene_break ] jordan : for what it 's worth , i 'm so sorry this is happening . carly : thank you . and anything you can do to find sonny will be greatly appreciated . dante . jordan : what 's going on in there ? dante : internal bleeding . they have to open him up to stop it , so there 's nothing we can do till morning . carly : did they say how long the surgery would take ? jordan : why do you ask ? dante : they do n't know , and you 're not waiting around . carly : garvey said he killed sonny . dante : garvey could be lying . like you said , sonny 's smart enough to not let that guy get the jump on him . carly : we have to be sure , dante . dante : you have to go home , carly , be with your family . they need you now . [ scene_break ] sonny : can you take me to morgan ? stone : is that what you want ? sonny : yeah . stone : are you sure ? are you ready to give up ? on the rest of your life , on your other kids ? dante , michael and kristina , and little avery ? she 's not gon na remember morgan . she wo n't remember you , either . you will be just a face in a picture frame . a lot of stories , and not all of them good . there are a lot of people that hate you , sonny , people that will want to tell your daughter the worst about you . sonny : what if avery 's better off without me , safe from the pain that i 've caused my other kids ? stone : if you believe that ... we can go right now . it 's your call . [ scene_break ] carly : josslyn , what are you doing here ? josslyn : i got your text , and i thought you might be here with sonny , so i came over . and then michael told me sonny 's disappeared . i 've just been so mean to you , mom . that was unfair . i 'm sorry . carly : come here . it 's okay . hey , everything 's gon na be okay . everything 's gon na be okay .

[ scene_break ] [ judge pounds gavel ] diane : your honor , my client does not need to be restrained . he did n't attack anyone , he poses no threat . he simply had a justifiably adverse reaction to the district attorney 's persistent badgering of this witness , but i can assure this court it will not happen again . the d.a . 's line of questioning is both invasive and irrelevant . as was already stipulated , mr. lansing was once married to this witness and is now using this trial as an opportunity to punish her for the divorce . the district attorney has railroaded my client before , your honor , but this may be the most egregious violation because he has brought murder charges against my client for a man who may not even be dead ! ric : your honor , defense is making closing argument . diane : oh . judge : mr. lansing , do you intend to call any witnesses you have n't slept with ? diane : oh ! ric : your honor , i hold no more malice towards mrs. spencer than i did to samantha mccall . diane : then you should be finished questioning her , because she told you everything she knows about the afternoon in question . my client received a phone call about coffee . ric : i am establishing that mrs. spencer 's testimony might be biased towards mr. morgan . and in light of that fact , the prosecution would like to continue this line of questioning . [ scene_break ] kate : everything else aside , it was nice of you to bring this to me . sonny : yeah ? well , it was great the way you handled ric 's questions , and i was kind of surprised since he accused me of using you as an alibi . kate : oh , i was just being honest . i found the d.a . 's whole line of questioning absurd . so , what , you get one phone call in front of me and supposedly it 's to order this alcazar person 's murder ? sonny : mm - hmm . kate : it 's melodramatic and silly . i mean , business people get lots of phone calls , at least 50 a day . sonny : it was a setup . ric got you on the stand to establish that i made that call . that way , he can get elizabeth on the stand to testify she saw jason get the call . then , he can harass elizabeth , make jason blow up , and prove jason is dangerous . kate : well , if i were still connie falconeri from bensonhurst , i 'd tell your brother , ric , to get a life . sonny : hmm . michael : hey , dad . so uh -- michael : hi , miss howard . um -- can we get our ball out of your pond ? kate : koi , lily , or meditation ? sonny : okay , hold on one second here . first of all , love you guys . what are you doing here , and where is your mother ? [ scene_break ] carly : you know , spinelli may be strange , but he managed to come up with a lot of information on lorenzo . i mean , if this does n't prove that he 's still alive , nothing will man : got her .

[ scene_break ] jax : you know , i 'd be interested to hear your version of what happened with my brother . irina : why ? jax : because jerry -- jerry thinks you 're dead . and , actually , he 's been living with a lot of guilt . irina : one must have conscience to feel guilt , which means jerry has neither . jax : my brother 's always been a rogue , but he 's also always had a conscience . and then he met you . next time he showed up , you were supposedly dead and he took more than a dozen people hostage , which begs the question -- are you the reason my brother lost his soul ? irina : torture changes you . it makes you realize exactly how far you 'll go to stay alive . for me , that meant cooperating . jax : you were tortured , too ? irina : you reach a point where all you can think is , `` how do i make them stop ? `` i finally agreed to let them use me against jerry . jax : oh , so you 're angry at jerry for betraying you when you really betrayed him , too ? how does that give you the moral high ground ? ah ! [ scene_break ] amelia : i was called to testify by the prosecution . while i waited , i watched on closed - circuit television in the witness room . became clear they were n't going to get to me today , but before i left , i saw ric grilling elizabeth on the stand , asking if she 'd ever slept with jason . sam : what did she say ? amelia : well , the defense objected and they were all arguing when i left , but i can only assume that elizabeth -- the paragon of virtue that she is -- will admit the truth . and if the d.a . 's line of questioning leads right to `` who 's jake 's daddy , `` you 'll get everything you wanted . elizabeth and jason will both be exposed as liars . sam : no , if you had listened to anything that i had ever said , you would know that that 's not what i want . amelia : right , right -- it 's all about the baby you ca n't have . well , at least little jake comes out of this once the truth comes out , there 's nothing to stop jason and elizabeth from being together and raising their own child . [ knock on door ] sam : oh , excuse me . nikolas : hi . sam : hi , come in . nikolas : well , why -- why 'd you want to see me ? sam : get ready to prop up your brother because it 's about to hit the fan . nikolas : what ? what 's wrong with lucky ? sam : well , lucky is about to find out what kind of a liar he married . [ scene_break ] judge : the court sees no reason to restrain the defendant at this time , but be warned , mr. morgan -- one more outburst like the one we just witnessed and i 'll reverse my decision . diane : my client fully understands , your honor . it will not happen again . judge : additionally , i believe the prosecution 's line of questioning regarding the nature of the witness ' relationship to mr. morgan is relevant . the d.a . may continue . ric : thank you , your honor . mrs. spencer , we 've already established a friendship with mr. morgan . did it ever progress to a romantic level ? elizabeth : yes , we dated a long time ago . ric : was it serious ? elizabeth : not really . when we broke up , we were able to remain friends . ric : careful , mrs. spencer . you are under oath to tell the truth . elizabeth : that is the truth . ric : did you have sex with the defendant when the two of you were dating ? elizabeth : no . ric : did you ever have sex with jason morgan ? mrs. spencer , you 're under oath . have you and the accused , jason morgan , ever had a sexual relationship ? elizabeth : yes . [ scene_break ] amelia : d.a . lansing has introduced elizabeth and jason 's personal relationship into her testimony . sam : look , amelia , there 's no reason to sugarcoat it . nikolas knows all about what they did last summer . amelia was at the courthouse , and she could n't wait to run over with all the gory details . she 's good that way . nikolas : i 'm -- i 'm sorry , this is n't something i care to discuss with a stranger , so if you could -- amelia : oh , privacy is n't an option at this point . elizabeth is about to admit under oath that she 's intimately involved with jason . by the end of the day , the whole town will be dishing about it . enjoy it while you can . oh , no doubt you 'll want to comfort poor lucky . sam : oh -- amelia : someone needs to . sam : please go . [ door closes ] nikolas : well -- [ sam sighs ] nikolas : how much does she know about my brother ? sam : okay , i -- i made the mistake of confiding in amelia . i wanted the truth to come out a long time ago , but i did n't want to mess with lucky 's sobriety . but it 's time . the truth needs to come out . [ scene_break ] ric : mrs. spencer , how long have you and jason morgan been lovers ? elizabeth : we 're not lovers . it was one night . ric : hmm . and when did that one night occur ? was it within the last year ? winter ? spring ? when ? elizabeth : just after you had sex with your stepdaughter . judge : the witness will answer . elizabeth : last august . ric : hmm . and you 've remained close with the defendant since then , correct ? elizabeth : yes , we 've stayed friends . ric : well , with benefits . diane : objection . ric : sorry , your honor , i apologize . how many times would you say you have seen your friend mr. morgan since that night last august ? diane : oh -- your honor , we have already established that the witness had sex with my client on one occasion . the d.a . 's continuing this line of questioning is both pointless and prurient . judge : i 'll see you both in chambers . [ judge pounds gavel ] judge : court is in recess for 10 minutes .

[ scene_break ] trey : your ex hit you ? kristina : yeah . trey : where is he ? does he live here in port charles ? kristina : he died . trey : your father . kristina : no . he did n't even know it was happening while it was happening . look , it 's a long story . i do n't want to get into it , but kiefer -- he 's no longer an issue . trey : except he is , kris . kristina : yeah . look , i only brought it up because if this -- if us -- is gon na go anywhere , you deserve to know . trey : you said , `` while this was happening . `` so it means this happened more than once ? kristina : yeah . it got pretty bad . kiefer had a temper . we were arguing , and ... i ca n't even remember what it was about , but he slapped me . but he -- he ... apologized right after . it was really , really contrite , and i forgave him . it was just a slap , you know ? and he was so sorry ... and by forgiving him , it made me feel important , as if he needed me to make everything okay . trey : so let me get this straight -- he hits you , and then somehow , it 's your job to save him ? kristina : i thought i loved him . trey : so you slept with him . kristina : [ breathes deeply ] he was really intense about our relationship . i was the one who started to pull back . but ... he did n't like that . the fights got worse . one night , hew completely lost it , beat me up ... put me in the hospital . trey : he was sick . kristina : i used to try to cover the bruises with makeup . and i still ... catch myself checking in the mirror , but the bruises are gone . it 's just ... anyway , i have n't been serious with anyone since . it 's just too hard for me to trust without thinking i 'm gon na get hurt . [ scene_break ] alexis : you were happy with jason at one point because i 've got the wedding pictures to prove that . sam : yeah , i know . believe me . alexis : you know , he was n't my first choice , but i did come around , eventually . until he proved that he was unable to show you or your baby any support . sam : mom , come on . alexis : well , i 'm not prying . i 'm not . i just want to know how things stand between the two of you . sam : they do n't . [ scene_break ] jason : you know all this . you know , sam blames me for the baby 's death . and she ca n't forgive me . i guess some things you ca n't get past . sonny : when was the last time ... [ scene_break ] alexis : ... you saw jason ? sam : yes . last night , he came to the office . alexis : okay . so , how did things go ? were you happy to -- did you talk ? sam : i thought you were n't gon na pry . [ scene_break ] sonny : you have to resolve this with sam . at least talk to her . [ scene_break ] alexis : honey , you have to be willing to hear each other out . sam : yeah , but talking is n't gon na solve anything , mom . that much i do know . alexis : i do n't blame you for being angry with him . you would n't have ended up at that godforsaken motel if it -- sam : i do n't want to go over this again -- who did what to who and who was wrong and who was right . the whole point is that whatever happened caused this distance between us , and we ca n't seem to find our way back together again . [ scene_break ] jason : i 've tried to reach out to sam , but ... something always happens . sonny : like what ? [ footsteps approaching ] [ scene_break ] lulu : you do n't owe me anything . dante : i 'm your husband . if you 're happy , i 'm doing my job . if you 're miserable , then i 'm obviously not doing a very good job . lulu : i 'm not miserable , and my problems are mine . dante : you do n't have problems . you were living your life . i just got a little bit controlling . lulu : okay , you were a little controlling . but i -- you know , i was the same way . when you were shot , i was upset that you were going back to work so soon . dante : i should -- i should remember that and how much i did n't like that . i know that you would n't like it , either . lulu : oh , my god . you 're allowed to have an opinion . dante : here 's my opinion . i will support you ... through all your plans and all your dreams ... just like you support me through mine . our marriage is n't perfect . i do n't know whose is . but if you ... if you are willing to work at this a little bit ... and give it a try , i think we 'll have an amazing life together . [ scene_break ] trey : i would never hit you , ever . or any other woman , for that matter , okay ? that -- that 's not who i am . kristina : i believe you . as much as i like you , i 'm not ready to sleep with you . it 's not a test to see if you 'll stick around , and i 'm not a tease . trey : oh , no , i did n't think that . kristina : i just need time to feel safe with you . i guess i should have said something before you called off `` mob princess . `` trey : no , no , no . look , you -- you told me when you felt like you could . kristina : anyway , it 's a lot to ask for you to wait , so ... if you want to call this off , i 'll understand . [ scene_break ] dante : so that was me apologizing . lulu : [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry for making the deal with johnny without consulting you . and the dress . i should apologize for the dress that we could n't afford , but i wanted it , and ... i felt like i deserved it . it was my night . dante : you did . and you do . when i went through the opening alone ... i thought that you were gon na be there and you did n't show up . dante : honestly , i meant to call you -- lulu : i know . i know you were stopping heather and you helped save my father , but even if you had n't ... i realized something -- that i got what i wanted . i got the dress , and i got the club . but that does n't mean anything without you . dante : i really wanted to be there . i 'm really proud of you . lulu : i know you are . i love you . it 's just that `` forever `` word scares me . dante : you want a guarantee . lulu : yeah , i do . dante : there is n't one . [ scene_break ] alexis : the distance between the two of you may seem hopeless , at the moment , but i 'm an attorney . i bring warring parties together all the time . the secret is you just put the two people in a conference room , walk away -- sam : tsst ! it 's not just two people anymore . alexis : what do you mean ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hi . jason : hey . elizabeth : sonny , you remember dr. keenan . ewen : mr. corinthos . elizabeth , uh , suggested we try this place for lunch . i hear the ribs are pretty good . [ scene_break ] sam : after the baby died , i really did n't know what to do with myself , and i started taking these long walks on the pier , and ... one night , john mcbain was there . alexis : am i gon na like where this is headed ? sam : no more than jason liked where it wound up . [ scene_break ] ewen : i 'm glad we could do this at the spur of the moment . elizabeth : you said you wanted to try the ribs . they 're the best here . [ scene_break ] sonny : what was that about ? [ scene_break ] sam : mom , john was dealing with his own problems that night , and he had a bottle with him , and i helped him finish it , not that that matters . i 'm not gon na make any excuse . it was two people ... who needed comfort , and that 's the bottom line . [ scene_break ] jason : look , i do n't know what you 're talking about . sonny : you do n't know what i 'm talking about ? she just introduced me to the psychiatrist who 's been treating kate for months . was that for your benefit ? jason : no , i have n't met dr. keenan . sonny : you know what i 'm talking about . is there something ... going on with you and elizabeth ? [ scene_break ] alexis : so when you say you kissed john mcbain , what -- a little peck on the cheek ? sam : no , no , it means we were both alone and hurting , and we both needed some sort of comfort . it was that kind of a kiss . alexis : so it was serious . sam : oh ! it gets worse . [ sighs ] jason saw us . [ scene_break ] sonny : mcbain and sam ? son of a bitch . jason : i know . i just -- i had to get away , and i went up to the bridge to think ... and elizabeth was there . [ scene_break ] sam : i know how it sounds , but i was not the only one who was wrong . if you can even call it wrong . alexis : now , i 'm not judging you . i 'm just surprised . sam : surprised ? do you want to hear surprise ? then let 's talk about what jason did . [ scene_break ] ewen : elizabeth , are you sure you 're comfortable here ? elizabeth : yeah . why not ? ewen : well , your -- your friend . [ scene_break ] sonny : you and elizabeth -- i mean , that 's a lot of history , a lot of pain . jason : yeah , i know . sonny : i guess you were n't thinking about that when you were kissing her . [ scene_break ] alexis : it 's just juvenile . you kiss mcbain , so then jason kisses elizabeth ? [ scene_break ] jason : the last thing i want is to hurt elizabeth or sam . they 've both been hurt enough . sonny : but here 's the thing -- no matter what 's happened ... sam is still your wife . [ scene_break ] alexis : so jason admits that he kisses another woman -- sam : no , mom , it 's not just another woman . please , let 's be clear on that . they are people that were sharing a bad moment , but jason and elizabeth ... they had a -- they had a baby together . and it does n't matter that jake is gone . they still share this connection . alexis : [ sighs ] okay . so he hurt you again . not the first time . apparently , it wo n't be the last . what do you want to do ? do you want a divorce ? [ scene_break ] dante : there are no guarantees . you just have to take that leap of faith and know that i 'm gon na be there to catch you . lulu : [ chuckles ] dante : i remember the first time i saw you . and i thought you were someone and i wanted a chance with you . that 's why i let your brothers kick the crap out of me at the bar -- so that you would feel sorry for me . lulu : i know . why do you always tell the story like you let them kick your butt ? dante : because i could have run away if i wanted to , but then i would n't have had my chance with you . that 's the way i feel now , and that 's the way i hope i feel in 50 years . lulu : that 's really sweet . dante : i want to spend every day that i can with you . and if that turns into forever , then even better . [ scene_break ] sam : i had n't really thought about divorcing jason . alexis : you have grounds . sonny : so , look , um ... you 're gon na have to make some decisions . the quicker you make them , the easier it 's gon na be on everybody , all right ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm sorry , ewen . ewen : it 's okay . you care about him . obviously . if things had been different , you might have wound up together . but that 's not the case . [ scene_break ] sam : it 's not about ending a marriage , mom . it 's about trying to find a way to forgive him , but every time , i try , i ... i do n't know . something just stops me . alexis : what ? [ scene_break ] ewen : jason 's marriage is failing . you want to help him , but you do n't want to get in the way of him working things out with his wife . you know , that says a lot about your empathy and generosity . they 're qualities that make me want to spend as much time with you as -- as you 'll allow . [ scene_break ] sonny : after brenda left , the pain buried me , and i took it out on everybody . but do n't let it get that far . if you think you ca n't fix things with sam ... call it quits now , for everybody 's sake . [ scene_break ] alexis : what stops you from patching things up with jason ? sam : because what if , deep down , i ca n't forgive him ? i know myself , mom . i 'm gon na keep trying to find ways to punish him , and i ca n't do that to him . i love him too much . alexis : sometimes , the most loving thing you can do is to let someone go . [ scene_break ] kristina : say something ... even if it is goodbye . trey : goodbye ? no . come on , no . not even close . look , i 'm just trying to wrap my head around everything you just told me . the thought of someone ... the thought of someone hitting you ... it 's just wrong . kristina : oh , thank you for understanding . trey : we can take this as slow as you want , okay ? you set the pace . let 's just get to know each other and see what happens . hmm ? kristina : what you just said , how you reacted , it tells me so much about you . [ sighs ] what 's your father gon na think ? trey : you want to know what my father 's gon na feel about you and me ? kristina : at some point , i guess , but i meant the show . did n't he put a lot of money into `` mob princess `` ? trey : yeah , yeah , but he 'll -- he 's gon na -- he 'll get a write - off , so ... kristina : are you sure he wo n't be angry with you ? trey : [ chuckles ] if my dad finds out that i have a chance with you , he 's gon na be thrilled . that 's assuming i have a chance . kristina : is n't that what we just decided ? trey : i 'm just checking . kristina : i should go . i told molly i would bring her brownies back from kelly 's . but thank you ... again . trey : hey , any time . kristina : i hope not . we do n't have to get all serious every time we see each other . i just wanted you to know . trey : i get it . okay ? i just want to make sure you 're comfortable . kristina : me too . trey : [ chuckles ] kristina : call me ? trey : absolutely . kristina : [ breathes deeply ] [ scene_break ] lulu : i wish we had done this days ago ... and talked it through . of course , we would have if i had n't hidden the letter from you . dante : it would mean a lot if your father did n't think we could n't make it . lulu : actually , that should have been my first clue that he did n't write the letter . 'cause he ... would say to live my own life and to make my own rules . he would n't say to love you or to not love you . he always tells me to trust my own instincts . dante : hmm . and what do your instincts tell you ? lulu : my instincts tell me that the smartest thing i ever did was marry you ... dante : mm . lulu : ... and that , if i 'm scared of forever ... dante : mm - hmm . lulu : ... the only person that i want to do that with ... dante : mm - hmm . lulu : ... would be you . dante : but i 'm just -- i 'm so boring , you know ? lulu : i did n't say that . i said i was boring . dante : oh , well , then maybe we should , uh ... do something about that . [ scene_break ] sam : i ca n't make any decisions right now . i 'm too confused . alexis : if you decide you want out , i can represent you . for free . and i 'm the best there is . sam : you are the best there is . speaking of ... is there any way you can get me out of this parking ticket ? alexis : no way . sam : no . alexis : consider it a lesson in staying too long in a place you should n't be . i adore you . sam : i love you . alexis : love you , too . [ scene_break ] jason : i ca n't -- i ca n't divorce sam . sonny : okay . what if she wants to divorce you ? jason : i 'm not gon na fight , you know ? i 'm ... look , i do n't want to be the one who gets the lawyers involved and draws up the papers . sonny : what , are you afraid that she 'll think that you 're punishing her for what happened with mcbain ? jason : i do n't want to punish her . sonny : right . jason : i just -- i just want ... i just want this pain to stop . sonny : you can -- you can love somebody and get to the point where your choices hurt them . then you got to figure out what 's the least of the damage . if you leave , it 's gon na hurt . if you stay , it 's gon na hurt more . so you 're gon na have to do what needs to be done . jason : yeah , but sam and i have a life together . sonny : i know . jason : how do i just walk away ? [ scene_break ] ewen : seems like a long time since our first date . elizabeth : yes , when i discovered your deep , dark secret . the harmonica . ewen : oh , right . yeah , the harmonica . elizabeth : what ? is there another deep , dark secret ? [ scene_break ] sonny : jason . jason : um , what else can you tell me about joe jr. ? sonny : why are you changing the subject ? jason : if there 's even -- even a chance that he 's gon na come after your family , we need to be ready . sonny : joe jr. 's a coward , a liar , and i just want to give him room to make a mistake . i 'm sure he 's already got something planned ... something in place , a way to move against my kids . [ scene_break ] trey : dad . hey , how you doing ? yeah , listen , i 'm glad you called . i kind of wanted to talk to you a bit about kristina . look , okay , i know you 're trying to get back at sonny and all by having me marry his daughter , but ... you know , the thing is ... kristina 's really nice . but , okay -- but how would you feel if someone was trying to get back at you by coming after me ? kristina does n't deserve to be used like that . yeah , okay , i understand we 're family . you were wronged . we were wronged , yeah . okay , dad . i 'll do whatever you want . yes , i 'll marry kristina . [ next_on ] starr : maybe the person that killed cole and hope also killed anthony . jason : you stopped seeing dr. keenan because of me ? john : you ca n't just take my little boy and leave the country , natalie . maxie : i ca n't bring natalie back from the dead . todd : what are you lookin ' for ? sam : maybe it was something about my baby .

[ scene_break ] spencer : brendan , are you awake ? [ scene_break ] franco : okay . this one here already interrogated me at the hospital about my really suspicious flower -- a flower that was for a date with elizabeth , which , as you can see , you 're interrupting . so if you do n't mind -- jordan : actually , we ... have some new questions for you , franco . franco : seriously ? jordan : yeah . franco : what are you gon na ask me ? you want to see the receipt from the florist ? jordan : no , there was another suspicious death at general hospital tonight . elizabeth : what ? ! jordan : and you , franco , are a person of interest . is there anything you 'd like to tell us now ?

[ scene_break ] carly : jax , you stood right there , and you heard me tell dr. finn that i was -- i was giving up the search for josslyn 's kidney donor . i 'm respecting her wishes . i 'm dropping the matter . jax : i heard you , carly , but i was also married to you , which is how i know you 're lying . carly : i think i 'm offended . jax : and i think you 're deflecting . i know how you operate . when you want something badly enough , your default setting is to lie . carly : you know what ? this conversation 's over , jax . jax : oh , this conversation 's just starting . look , i am here to protect josslyn , and your mission to find josslyn 's kidney donor -- it 's horribly misguided , and it 's got to stop . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : another death ? tonight ? are you sure it 's connected ? jordan : everything in this case suggests that it 's linked to the others , which is why you need to come with us to the station tonight . elizabeth : hold on . i - if this death just happened right now , franco and i have been together for several hours . we went to the floating rib , and then we came here . i 'm pretty sure that rules him out . jordan : well , we 've got some new things that have come to light . franco : what new things ? jordan : we have a statement , and we need to question you about that statement . and we 're definitely gon na ask you about that vial that officer spencer found on you when you left ms. prescott 's room . franco : really ? what -- what are you gon na ask me about ? look , ms. prescott was a really sweet woman who came to see me in art therapy . i went to her room , because i heard she was being discharged tomorrow , and i wanted to give her this little statuette that -- she really liked it , and i saw a vial on the floor . i picked it up . what are you gon na charge me with ? littering ? jordan : we need to ask you questions about that vial because ms. prescott is the latest murder victim . franco : she 's dead ? jordan : and that vial that officer spencer found on you tested positive for derisifol , the same drug found in all of the other victims . [ scene_break ] valentin : forgive me . this is manifestly none of my business , but your ex sounds like a real tool . nina : [ chuckles ] `` manifestly . `` yeah . he is . i do n't want to bore you with the details of my ex . i do n't care about them anymore . valentin : of all the words i would use to describe you , `` boring `` would not be one of them . nina : thank you . i 'm gon na call it a night . oh , shoot . it 's not my day . valentin : allow me . nina : hmm . thank you . valentin : i 'm sorry you had such a bad night . nina : thank you for making the end of my night not suck . valentin : i hope you take this as the compliment it 's meant to be , but if your ex does n't appreciate you , you 're better off without him . nina : i keep telling myself that . valentin : well , good night . sleep well . [ clicks tongue ] uh ... are you somehow associated with crimson magazine ? nina : uh , a little bit . i 'm the editor - in - chief . valentin : are you nina reeves ? nina : yeah , you know my name ? valentin : i did not grow up with much , but i always dreamt of a better life . magazines like crimson totally inspired me 'cause i wanted to be one of those powerful guys in the ads , the guys in the gray suits . but i did n't have anybody to teach me about ... the finer things . so i had to educate myself . [ scene_break ] sam : i am so glad you 're okay . i was n't leaving this island until i found you . jason : we 're good . we 're good , okay ? sam : okay . dante : what happened to you , jason ? jason : well , i , uh ... i did manage to turn off the plane 's engines , but that really was n't any help because something ignited during the landing , and the flames were spreading . i was able to get off the plane . when i was running away from it , the explosion knocked me out . i came to halfway in a pond , which , let me tell you , tastes pretty bad , but i 'm lucky because if i was face - down , i 'd , uh -- well , that would have been it . lulu : it 's amazing that you survived . laura : yeah . jason : yeah , like i said , lucky . sam : you need to get some rest . jason : i 'm fine . i 'm just glad to be here . where 's kevin ? laura : he 's over there sleeping . he 's still very weak . lulu : the rest of us are fine , except for not knowing where we are . ava : or how we 're gon na get off this island . lulu : we heard a boat earlier . jason : you heard a boat ? ava : yeah , but we had no way of knowing whether it was part of valentin 's crew or not . dante : greek radar could have spotted us going down . maybe that rescue boat 's still out there looking for us . jason : oh , this is fantastic . then we need to find some wood , build a signal fire . they can see us , okay ? let 's go . come on . sam : okay . ava : wait . w - w - w - wait . what ? do you really think that it 's a good idea to build this signal fire ? it could lead valentin 's men right to us . [ scene_break ] valentin : crimson helps keep me current . i also like the features . you -- you did one recently on old - money families -- the quartermaines and the cassadines . was that based on any personal experience ? nina : um , well , i know the quartermaines better than the cassadines . one of them is my staff photographer . and , um , i just know the cassadines by reputation -- nikolas cassadine , who recently died . valentin : yeah . yeah , i 'm acquainted with the prince 's demise . nina : you know nikolas ? [ scene_break ] morgan : joss , did you know your dad was coming to town ? josslyn : i had no idea until i got his text . he 's at the metro court right now with mom . he said he 'd call when he gets a chance . morgan : hmm . sonny : there 's nothing like a visit from your old man . you know , why do n't we ... surprise him at the metro court ? [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm josslyn 's father . her welfare has to come first . carly : i could n't agree more with you , jax . that 's why i started searching for josslyn 's donor . i mean , knock on wood , nothing 's gone wrong , but what if , god forbid , something happens ? would n't it be smart to have the medical history ... jax : oh , here we go . carly : ... from the donor ? but josslyn asked me to stop the search , so i did . and i thought she called you and told you that . jax : oh , no , no , no . she did . she called me and she told me how relieved she was . and i think that she believes that you stopped the search . carly : [ chuckles ] jax : but i know you , carly . when you think you 're right about something and somebody tells you that you 're wrong , you just agree with whatever they say , and then you secretly go behind their back and you go on with whatever it is you were doing . this is our daughter we 're talking about . carly : i know that ! i took the article down from the web site , jax ! jax : which proves nothing . i mean , from the moment you started the search , i told you to stop . but you did n't . you did n't listen . you -- you went public . so when joss called me to tell me that -- that you changed your mind after just one conversation , you did a complete 180 ... it 's just not you , is it ? not even remotely . but lying about something -- well , that has you written all over it . [ scene_break ] valentin : i did n't know nikolas cassadine . i read about his death , and i was aware that he and his son lived here for a long time . nina : mm . i mostly just covered them for charity events , but recently , i was exploring the idea of doing a profile on nikolas for crimson . valentin : what a gloomy conversation . i 'm sure that there are more cheerful things that we could be talking about . nina : what do you want to talk about ? i do n't know your name . valentin : theo hart . and i do n't want to talk about me 'cause i will put you right to sleep . my life is just not that interesting . nina : something happened to you that was interesting recently . valentin : yeah . i met you . nina : i 'm talking about the cut over your eye . what 's the story ? valentin : well , i guess you could say somebody treated me ... unkindly . but not to worry , because i 'm pretty sure that that person who injured me is very , very sorry right now . [ scene_break ] ava : it 's pretty obvious that valentin sabotaged that jet , right ? he wanted us to crash . do n't you think he 's gon na send guards here to follow up ? jason : then we 'll risk it . he shows up , we 'll take care of him . we need some wood . we need to start this fire . come on . sam : yeah . come on , dante . dante : you 'll be okay over here ? lulu : yeah , yeah . go with them . the sooner we light the fire , the s - sooner we 're out of here . dante : right . ava : or the sooner we 'll be dead . lulu : [ sighs ] what is with that woman ? what , she knew nikolas for all of two weeks , and now she has a monopoly on grief ? laura : i ca n't believe i got to see him for , what , 10 minutes ? that 's it ? and then he -- he 's just gone . i mean ... lulu : i know . for the last few weeks , all dante and i could think about was creating this new life . laura : mm . lulu : and now all i can think about is death . laura : no , come on now . we are gon na get through this , okay ? lulu : yeah . laura : we have to . spencer needs us .

[ scene_break ] jax : so , this whole , uh , search for the kidney donor -- it 's , uh -- it 's done , right ? josslyn : oh , totes . i told mom how everyone was staring at me after the story was published , and she got it taken down . jax : yeah , well , that was good of her . josslyn : i never did get why she made such a big deal out of it , though . i mean , i 'm totally healthy . jax : well , she 's your parent , and just like me , it 's -- it 's our job to worry about you . i hope you know that there 's nothing that i would n't do for you . josslyn : okay , then , finish this because i 'm super stuffed . jax : whoa . josslyn : i 'm gon na go wash my hands . jax : it 's me . i have an update . [ scene_break ] franco : well , then , you have to turn around and let me go , because you 've found nothing . nothing 's turned up because i 've done nothing wrong . what kind of public apology can i expect from you ? jordan : are you done ? franco : am i done ? this is garbage . you know that , right ? this is just garbage they 're throwing at me , because i 'm the easiest target . by this time tomorrow , this 'll all be over and done with , and we can pick up where we left off , right ? turns out i am done . [ scene_break ] morgan : it 's funny . i thought aaron was a cool guy , actually . i 'm a little surprised he reacted so harshly . kristina : oh , come on , morgan . morgan : what ? kristina : how would you react if kiki told you that she had slept with a woman and that she might possibly be in love with her ? morgan : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . wait up , you 're in love with parker ? kristina : you answer my question first , and i 'll answer yours . morgan : okay . um ... if kiki told me that she had feelings for somebody else , it would definitely kill me . i do n't think it would matter whether it was a - a boy or a girl . i just -- i just do n't want to share kiki with anybody . kristina : see ? and i think that 's exactly what aaron was thinking . morgan : do n't think i forgot what you said . you 're in love with parker ? kristina : [ sighs ] i do n't know . i mean , the logical part of my brain thinks that 's ridiculous . i mean , we have n't even been out on a date . and how could i be in love with her ? morgan : but ... what ? kristina : but ... ... the night we spent together -- i 've never felt like that with anyone . if -- if that 's not love , then i do n't know what is . it 's just -- it 's all just so extremely confusing , because i also still -- i really liked aaron . morgan : mm - hmm . kristina : but , i mean , now i do n't have parker or aaron , so ... morgan : come here . kristina : [ sighs ] morgan : you do , though , have your big , dysfunctional family ... kristina : [ chuckles ] morgan : ... including me . kristina : right .

jerry : who is this ? who are you trying to reach ? who are you ? jerry : i lost the call . carly : what 's wrong ? jerry : it 's probably nothing . carly : then why are you worried ? jerry : do you know what ? your badgering is -- is really getting tiresome . stop it . carly : do you think that call was about jason or jax ?

[ scene_break ] nikolas : elizabeth 's testimony should n't be taking this long . sam : it 's going to take as long as it takes . i just -- i do n't understand how ric can do this . i mean , he -- he claims to have loved elizabeth at one point in his life , and now he 's forcing her to swear in open court that she was unfaithful to lucky ? what ? [ scene_break ] ric : mrs. spencer , by your own admission , you slept with jason morgan in august of last year . nine months later , your son jake was born . so i will ask you again -- is jason morgan , the defendant , the father of your son ? elizabeth : my baby 's father is my husband -- lucky spencer . [ scene_break ] lulu : i hate to admit this because i 've lived in port charles my whole life , but i have never been to vista point . logan : yeah , i happened on to it when i was hiking . it looks like some kind of landmark or something that everybody forgot about . lulu : i should start working out , though , because i got completely out of breath hiking up here . logan : and that 100 % humidity ai n't helping any . maybe this was a bad idea for the first date . lulu : well , it beats being wedged against the back wall of the catacomb club . logan : i 'll give you that . lulu : well , it 's , uh , too bad i did n't bring any water . i bet there 's zero chance of a fountain being up here . logan : oh , i think i can do a little better than that . [ scene_break ] carly : i made a serious mistake . jerry : oh , really ? carly : yeah . jerry : really ? just one ? after all , you 're jetting off to south america with a man you repeatedly called a `` psychopath . `` you assign me the dubious task of proving that lorenzo alcazar 's alive , which would free jason morgan -- never mind that alcazar 's dead and that jason morgan killed him , you know . which would free him , and he would come after me to kill me . you know what ? in the interest of self - preservation , i should have jason convicted . after all , i mean , who knows that we 're going to caracas at all ? carly : you did the same thing at the metro court . jerry : what are you talking about ? carly : when you did n't want to answer a question , you created a horrible diversion . you shot robin , you dragged sonny off to another room , and you made emily choose between her father and her best friend . jerry : there must be a point there somewhere . carly : you 're deflecting the question because you 're trying to scare me . jerry : what question ? carly : this whole time i 've been assuming that jax was safe because you love him and you would never put him in danger . jerry : that 's true , i love him . carly : then why are you worried ? jerry : i 'm not worried ! carly : yes , you are ! if jax is in danger , i want to know right now !

[ scene_break ] ric : you seem fairly certain that jason morgan is not your child 's father . did you take a paternity test ? diane : your honor , how is any of this relevant to the disappearance of lorenzo alcazar ? judge : i 've allowed this line of questioning because it goes to bias in favor of the defendant . however , the district attorney appears to be straying from the topic . wrap it up , mr. lansing . ric : did you take a paternity test ? elizabeth : yes ric : and it is your testimony that this test clearly indicates that it is lucky who is your child 's father ? elizabeth : yes . ric : yet you still maintained a relationship with jason morgan ? elizabeth : jason is a close friend , as i have already stated . he is kind , loyal . he saved me and all the other metro court hostages , including your stepdaughter , samantha mccall . judge : just answer the question , mrs. spencer . elizabeth : your honor , with all due respect , mr. lansing did n't ask me a question . he made a comment which implied the worst about my friendship with jason morgan , and i would like everyone here to understand what kind of person jason is . i was grateful when he risked his life to bring my son home to me after he had been kidnapped . but , really , it does n't surprise me that he did that because that 's what jason does for his friends . ric : yes , we 're referring to the time that mr. morgan jumped bail on first- degree murder . elizabeth : yes , and the fact that he was able to save my son 's life when the pcpd could n't even find him . ric : would you say that you are inclined to think the best of mr. morgan , maybe even be biased in his favor ? diane : objection , argumentative . judge : sustained . ric : i 'm sorry , i 'll rephrase . mrs. spencer , has your testimony been accurate and truthful in regards to the visit that mr. morgan paid you on the afternoon of may 23 , and the phone call that he received while in your presence ? elizabeth : here is the truth once again , mr. lansing . yes , jason came to visit me in the hospital because he is my friend , and during the course of that visit , he received a phone call . he said he would take care of it , and then he left -- end of story . that is what this trial is supposed to be about . and no matter how much pain you cause , or how many people you deliberately hurt , that is my statement . and nothing you say or imply or twist around is going to change it . [ scene_break ] jax : not that i 'm in a hurry to die , but i assume the sooner i call jerry , the sooner you two can work out your differences . irina : you assume nothing of the sort . you are trying to save yourself and your worthless brother . but that is n't going to happen . we will do everything exactly as i want on my timetable , no one else 's . jax : you trying to convince me of that or yourself ? irina : i would have done anything for your brother . i loved him . i risked my life to save him , and he sold me out . jax : jerry 's never recovered , you know . he 'll never love anyone again . his heart died when he betrayed you , and he 's going to suffer for the rest of his life . should n't that be enough ? irina : jerry got on with his life as if i were nothing . jax : no , that 's not true at all . irina : your brother 's had this coming for a very long time . jax : look , revenge is no way to live , okay ? it tears you up inside . it costs you more than you can imagine , and it does n't give you anything in return . revenge wo n't pay the rent any more than love will . irina : i disagree , because love -- or something close to it -- has paid my rent on any number of occasions . and now it 's your turn . [ scene_break ] logan : i did n't know it was -- whew -- it was going to be so damn hot . maybe we should 've had this day at the beach . whew . lulu : you know , my parents lived all over the world before i was born -- actually , they lived in texas , now that i think about it -- that 's where lucky , my brother , was born . logan : really ? where at ? lulu : someplace close to mexico , i think . my dad used to sneak over the border . he would talk about these great clear - channel radio stations he could hear late at night -- [ logan chuckles ] lulu : and -- and they lived in ireland , and in turkey and london and canada . anyway , they went camping a lot , and they had these great stories . you know , they 'd see a couple bears , and my mom fell in a creek , and my dad stepped on a hot marshmallow and hopped around -- you know , family stuff . but even when lucky was born , they would go camping a lot , and my dad used to say he would take me when i was older , but it never happened . i wish it did , but -- i do n't know . it 's just -- it 's -- it 's something that i 'll never get back , so who cares about the weather ? you gave me something that i 've always wanted . logan : hmm . [ scene_break ] sonny : carly left a message that she took off to save jason , which means she has a plan , and that is never a good thing . one time she -- she took on a roomful of my associates with a baseball bat . kate : that 's a little scary . sonny : well , carly acts first , thinks later , you know ? kate : oh , i can see why you 're worried . sonny : well , you know what ? i do n't -- i do n't really need to be , because i know carly can take care of herself . but it 's just that if she tries to save jason , it 's just -- you know , a lot of times , it 's going to cause more problems . and , you know , i think she can learn a little bit from you . your -- your testimony helped jason . thank you . kate : i was just telling the truth . i do n't care what kind of evidence the d.a . has , his line of questioning was ludicrous . sonny : yeah . you shut down ric with style . kate : huh . maybe you 're starting to appreciate kate howard just a little bit . sonny : you know , i -- you 're a standup . i 've always known it ever since i met you . i 'm just saying , you know , sometimes i think you do n't have to be so ice cold all the time . you should let your true self shine through more often . kate : `` my true self `` ? sonny : yeah . kate : who 's that ? sonny : like you are right now a little bit , you know ? just a beautiful woman who 's smart , who 's , you know , funny , and she 's good with my kids and -- kate : mm - hmm . sonny : she just likes to live life . kate : mm - hmm . you mean someone who behaves the way you want ? sonny : all i know is when i walked in here , you were laughing , just like u used to do back in bensonhurst . you did n't care what anybody thought , you just -- you were having fun . ai n't nothing wrong with that . kate : no , not a thing . [ scene_break ] diane : mrs. spencer , has jason morgan ever received phone calls in your presence before ? elizabeth : yes . diane : does he generally explain the nature of those phone calls to you ? elizabeth : no . diane : mm - hmm . so other than the day at the hospital , has jason morgan ever received a phone call and then left ? elizabeth : yes . diane : so it did n't -- it did n't seem unusual to you ? elizabeth : no , no , not at all . diane : at any point before , during , or after that phone call , did mr. morgan say the name `` lorenzo alcazar `` ? elizabeth : no , he did not . diane : thank you . no further questions for this witness . i do reserve the right to recall this witness , your honor . judge : we 've all had a very long day , and this seems a logical place to stop . you may step down , mrs. spencer . court is adjourned until tomorrow morning . [ scene_break ] jerry : todo esta bien , gracias . hasta luego . carly : i 'm not sleeping in the same room with you . jerry : oh . well , i 'll be very glad to arrange for you to have a room by yourself . but you should know that lorenzo alcazar 's people are probably tracking us as we speak , so you could be in very serious danger , which means that i 'm going to have to pass as one of your bodyguards . carly : fine -- get a rollaway bed . i do n't sleep with my bodyguards . jerry : yes , as max can readily attest . but , you see , my brother would never forgive me if anything happened to you . so i 'll stay close to you at all times , whether you like it or not . carly : do n't touch me ! jerry : agh ! agh !

[ scene_break ] ric : i know i hurt you today . and i 'm sorry . elizabeth : no , you 're not . you 're thrilled you made jason look bad . you do n't care about anything else -- not lucky 's pain , not my privacy . because that 's the type of person you are -- cruel , self - righteous . you want what you want , and you 're willing to do anything to get it . ric : i did my job . elizabeth : in a weird way , i 'm kind of relieved . because i can finally see you for who you really are -- a spiteful little man who is still mad at his brother . ric : this has nothing to do with sonny . elizabeth : oh , please . where would you be without sonny ? not in port charles , not in this courtroom . you certainly would n't be d.a . and now i can finally understand and accept why just about everybody in my life warned me to stay away from you . you 're pathetic . ric : do n't blame me , elizabeth . blame yourself .

what about the mother ? ewen : anna devane ? uh , she -- she left ferncliff convinced that her daughter had never set foot in the place . jerry : ms. devane has a formidable reputation , an instinct for lies and cover- ups . are you sure she discounted heather webber 's statements ?

and i 'm so grateful about all your hard work . i am . i really am . i mean , i could n't have accomplished anything without you . ewen : well , i 'm sure you 'd have found a way . jerry : nonsense . nonsense . your position in the hospital gave us unfettered access to restricted areas . clearance , you know , to make it possible for us to get into the lab undetected and smuggle the good doctor out . last but not least , i mean , you provided the anonymous corpse that was to be found charred beyond recognition . you know , a little dna tampering during the autopsy , and -- voil -- robin scorpio rests in peace ; and her poor , little family can heal at last . i mean , no one cares about an anonymous mental patient in a swiss clinic , do they ? ewen : and what about the explosion that , uh , that supposedly killed robin ? jerry : well , you know , it was a necessary diversion . ewen : you know , maxie jones blames herself for that blast . that could n't be any further from the truth , could it ? maxie : look , when i called and told you that patrick had n't made it home , you said that it was no problem , that he was with you on the haunted star because he forgot something . lulu : which was technically true . maxie : okay , look , please . lies of omission are my thing , not yours , okay , lulu ? lulu : look , maxie , i wanted to tell you -- i wish i could have -- but patrick was standing right there and he was in really bad shape . maxie : then that 's exactly what you should have said to me . lulu : you do n't get it . he was hallucinating . maxie : what -- what are you talking about ? lulu : i was walking out onto the deck and he called me `` robin . `` he thought he was seeing his dead wife . maxie : wow . the wife i took from him . jerry : poor maxie . carrying so much guilt for an accident that never happened . you see , the lab explosion -- that took very careful planning . robin 's death had to be very convincing . ewen : she 's still alive . jerry : and , uh , does that redeem me ? but , i mean , which is worse ? to kill someone outright or to leave them alive while their family grieves for no reason ? what do you think , hmm ? mcbain 's voice : `` i hope it was worth it . you 'll have all the time in the world to decide . goodbye . `` mcbain : where is she ? you obviously took natalie somewhere . tell me . franklin : mr. buchanan had me take miss natalie and the boy to the airport . that 's all i know . mcbain : tell clint you did what you came for . get out . come on . come on . natalie , do n't hang up . todd : you told starr about the hidden camera . johnny : why not ? i figured she 'd want to know that you and i have a friendly agreement . todd : did you learn that kind of thing bouncing up and down on anthony zacchara 's knee ? johnny : actually , anthony would have just offed you by now . todd : well , maybe that 's what you should do . but if that 's what you decide , you should know that i have proof . i 've got a full confession -- digitized , downloaded . johnny : i got no idea what you 're talking about . i just figured starr would want to know we had a meeting of the minds . todd : must give you such a thrill to see my daughter grateful to you . do you like to look at her and see that she 's got trust in her eyes ? you know what she would think of you if she found out that you killed cole ? johnny : you can stop right there , because if you breathe a word of that to anybody , i 'm gon na tell sam what you did to her baby . got to go . detective . a little late for the opening , do n't you think ? dante : yeah , i 'm not here for the music . johnny : right . you know , lulu was pretty upset that you were a no - show . dante : that 's why i 'm here . we need to talk about lulu . todd : hang up on me ? i 'll call you back ... hang up on you . no way you 're ever gon na tell anybody what it is that i 've done . questions ? me how you feel about my partnership with lulu . dante : look , i was a jerk . johnny : past tense ? dante : lulu wants to work with you . i respect that . i will not be causing any more problems here or anywhere else . johnny : all right . look who 's become the modern husband . dante : this place makes her happy , and that 's all i care about . johnny : is that why you were a no - show opening night ? dante : lulu knows the reason i was n't here is because i was saving her father and my mother from a psychopath . johnny : right . i heard about that . how 's olivia doing ? dante : they 're keeping her sedated till the drugs get out of her system . johnny : i 'm sorry . no matter what goes down between us , i - i still do care about her well - being . dante : so , why did you blackmail her boyfriend ? starr : johnny . johnny : hey . starr : hey . johnny : starr , i - i do n't believe you 've met lulu 's husband , have you ? dante : we 've -- we 've crossed paths but never met . dante falconeri . starr : yeah . hi . you 're michael 's brother . dante : i am . starr : you two get along a lot better than me and my brother do . uh , i guess i 'm interrupting . i heard something about blackmail . johnny : oh , it 's just part of my past , is all . starr : you can tell me . i know all about your past , remember ? johnny : right , but , see , it 's exactly that . it 's my past , and i am done with that life . dante : you sure about that ? johnny : you know , i 'm not hearing a lot of enthusiasm out of you . dante : i want lulu 's business to succeed , but i 'm still a cop and your grandfather 's murder is still unsolved . maxie : look , all that matters is you convinced patrick to get treatment . i should n't be criticizing how you made that happen . lulu : but you 're mad that i did n't include you . maxie : it 's just the frustration talking , okay , lulu ? i ca n't help patrick , so i take it out on my best friend . lulu : but that 's the hard part -- patrick has to help himself . maxie : just -- [ sniffles ] i thought when i moved in -- i thought i could make everything better . but then i realized that i ca n't give patrick the one thing he needs . i ca n't bring robin back from the dead . jerry : and now you 're treating robin 's husband -- the bereaved patrick drake ? ewen : yes . he 's -- he 's having trouble coping . jerry : oh , i 'm sure he is . you know , there 's -- there 's a certain symmetry there . see , in his grief , he turns to one of the few people who knows his wife is still alive . ewen : robin -- robin -- robin is as good as dead , thanks to you . jerry : oh , come on . do n't be afraid to share some of the credit . come on . ewen : now patrick -- patrick has to learn how to live without her . jerry : and how fortunate of him to have a man of your particular talent at his disposal . ewen : no doctor can cure patrick , and how is any man supposed to move on after a loss like that ? jerry : yeah , i know it 's sad , is n't it ? hmm . jason : i hope i did n't make things awkward for you and -- and dr. keenan . elizabeth : why , because we ran into each other at the floating rib ? jason : well , i mean , we were kind of sitting , you know , and he looked at me a couple times . elizabeth : that was completely my fault . i kept staring over at you and -- and sonny ... you know ... 'cause i - i notice you when you 're around . jason : um , i notice you , too . elizabeth : dr. keenan 's -- he 's -- he 's very perceptive , and i 'm sure he picked up on the tension between us . jason : [ sighs ] it 's because i - i kissed you , and i - i really need to apologize . elizabeth : no . stop . do n't . stop apologizing . jason : i - i just do n't want to mess things up for you and dr. keenan . that 's -- that 's all . elizabeth : it was lunch . jason : it was n't a -- a date ? elizabeth : i mean , we 've been out a couple times , but , you know , i slowed things down . jason : can i ask why ? elizabeth : my relationship with you . mcbain : look . just tell me where you and liam are . no . london is not your home . this is your home . this is your family -- the three of us . and i know you 're mad , but you ca n't just take my little boy and leave the country , natalie . i know . i hate myself , and i 'm sorry , and i will spend the rest of my life trying to make this up to you . but right now , you and i need to have a face - to - face so we can talk about this , all right ? so i - i 'm on the next flight to london , okay ? where 's my passport ? natalie , where 's my passport ? you took my son , and you took my passport . you really think that 's gon na stop me ? [ dial tone ] mcbain : natalie ? natalie ? ! todd : the charity that i contribute to . i insist on remaining anonymous , you know , 'cause once you 're on a list , they -- they e - mail you during dinner . i hate that . sam : um , i just wanted to see if you needed anything before i got settled . todd : actually , um , yeah , could you grab me something from my safe ? sam : your safe ? todd : yep . my safe . i 'm sure there 's something in there that you need . sam : uh , i do n't have the combination . todd : i never told it to you ? sam : no . todd : oh . i find that surprising . i mean , i trust you so much . go ahead . i - i do n't think you even need the combination . i - i 'm sensing now that -- that it 's already open . so , uh , why do n't you , uh , go ahead ? sam : hmm . todd : should be a -- a piece of paper in there -- just for you . sam : what the hell is this ? mcbain : son of a bitch ! sam : this is what you wanted me to get from your safe ? todd : yeah . what ? sam : you 're firing me ? todd : you broke into my safe , did n't you ? that 's why you 're hit - man husband was out here guarding the door . sam : [ sighs ] yeah , you 're right . todd : what were you looking for ? because my uncut diamonds , you know , they 're in my daughter 's old iguana tank . sam : i do n't know . todd : you do n't know ? you broke , you entered , you violated my privacy , and you do n't even know what you were looking for ? sam : i do n't know . maybe it was something about my baby . starr : you think that johnny is the one that killed anthony ? you already arrested the woman that buried his body in the woods . johnny : right . heather webber . looks like a prime suspect to me . dante : miss webber had no motive to kill anthony , and we think she buried the body in a misguided attempt to protect luke spencer . johnny : okay , so luke 's guilty , right ? i - i told you , anthony heard luke and tracy plotting . dante : okay , luke and tracy are still suspects , but every bit of evidence we have , johnny , corroborates their story . johnny : which is ? dante : anthony was dead when they found him in the quartermaine boathouse . and they moved the body and tried to dispose of a weapon -- that means they 'd be facing obstruction charges , not murder charges . starr : maybe the person that killed cole and hope also killed anthony . lulu : can you please not put this on yourself ? patrick missed robin so much , he needed to find a way to keep her present . maxie : yeah , that 's why he 's taking the pills . lulu : he told you about that ? starr : we talked about it when i first got here . [ scoffs ] patrick said that , by the end , when he was using , it was like robin was right there with him . so kicking the pills also means letting her go . lulu : how 's he doing ? maxie : well , he had a rough night , but he made it through . he 's in group therapy now , which , i guess , is kind of a requirement , but [ scoffs ] i do n't know . patrick 's a pretty proud person . arrogant , even . it 's got to be tough to open a vein in front of a couple of strangers . lulu : well , maybe he 'll feel supported , like he 's not the only one . maxie : yeah . whatever . i just hope this works . lulu : he is in good hands . dr. ewen keenan has taken a personal interest in patrick 's case . ewen : look , i - i gave your update . now we 're done , okay ? jerry : wait , wait , wait . you were a little sketchy on some of the finer points . for example , how many of the staff at ferncliff have saw robin , and is there anything to connect our `` anonymous `` patient to the late doctor robin scorpio drake ? ewen : there 's nothing , okay ? ! jerry : why are you so terse ? i mean , come on . i mean , i 'd almost think you did n't like me , after i 've given you such interesting and stimulating employment . ewen : [ scoffs ] you 're enjoying this , right ? jerry : yes , i am . i mean , you know what they say ? `` love what you do and you 'll never work a day in your life . `` [ chuckles ] come on . so , walk me through the transfer from ferncliff -- from the moment you wheeled her out of the room to the moment you loaded her up onto the airplane to switzerland . ewen : you know what ? maybe some other time . i - i have plans . jerry : really ? is elizabeth webber included in those plans ? jason : you stopped seeing dr. keenan because of me ? elizabeth : that 's what ewen thought . do you remember that night he came to my house for dinner and you had shown up ? well , he knew that we were dealing with something personal . he did n't ask me . he went straight to patrick and steven , and they told him that we have this connection . jason : okay . why -- why not ask you , uh , directly ? elizabeth : i do n't know . maybe he felt like we do n't know each other well enough . like i said , we 've only gone out on a couple dates . and then i backed things off , and i guess he assumed it was because my feelings for you run deeper than just a friendship . jason : i mean , is -- is there anything to that ? i - i would never want our friendship to keep you from being with somebody else . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] you do n't have to worry , jason . jason : i just -- i had -- i had no reason complicating your life by kissing you . elizabeth : you did n't complicate things . i mean , yes , something happened that night for me . but what i realize is that i 've been holding back , and i thought that all this time it was because of what happened to jake , but the truth is , i do n't have a very good track record with relationships , and i feel that if i start one , it 's doomed to fail . jason : i 'm sorry if i ever made you feel that way . elizabeth : no , it was n't -- it was n't you . i made my own mistakes . and regardless of how my relationships ended , i had good times . we had good times . and i want to remember those . i want to feel those feelings . i just want that again . jason : y - you should try again . i just -- i just do n't want to get in the way . elizabeth : well , i was n't holding back with ewen because of you . i mean , there was something else . ewen : how do you know about my relationship with -- with elizabeth ? jerry : i make it my business to know everything there is to know about the people i 'm working with . actually , i have fond memories of elizabeth -- lovely girl . i mean , when she was my hostage , we played this most amusing game . [ chuckles ] we had to give ourselves a title . for instance , i was commando one , so i called myself `` fun one . `` she called herself `` baby 's breath elizabeth . `` a little saccharine -- i mean , considering she was carrying a baby at the time . i believe that jason morgan was the father , actually . have you ever met him ? ewen : y - yes . briefly . yeah . jerry : i 'd never say this about anyone else , but , uh , jason morgan can be lethal . does he know you 're sniffing around his paramour ? ewen : he 's -- he 's married to someone else . jerry : oh , come on . when has marriage ever stopped anyone , especially for jason and elizabeth ? i mean , come on . [ chuckles ] actually , i believe that she was married to someone else when he got her pr -- ewen : enough , okay ? ! jerry : have i touched a nerve ? ewen : yes . i - i like elizabeth . jerry : i have to admit ... that 's not the answer i was hoping for . maxie : you know , dr. keenan was really able to help kate , so hopefully he 'll be able to help patrick . lulu : and do you know how long his group - therapy session is gon na be ? maxie : oh , no , patrick did n't say how long , but i 'm gon na wait here for a little while if you want to go check on your dad . lulu : no , i 'm taking a break . my dad tried to convince me to smuggle him cigars . maxie : [ chuckles ] so i guess he 's feeling better . lulu : yeah , it 's gon na take a while , but the doctors say he 's gon na make a full recovery . maxie : that 's great news . so , um , how 's olivia ? lulu : unfortunately , it 's serious . maxie : i 'm sorry . poor dante . lulu : he 's worried about her , but olivia 's tough , and she 's gon na get through it , and she 'll be so happy to know that her crisis brought me and dante back together . maxie : wait . what do you mean , `` back together `` ? 'cause i really ca n't handle another breakup . lulu : no , not a breakup . dante and i were just drifting apart . maxie : why ? lulu : i - i felt like if i was trying too hard to be a wife , i 'd stop being me . maxie : yeah . i can completely relate to that . lulu : [ chuckles ] so , my way of dealing with it was by not dealing with it , and that 's not what i want . when i have problems with dante , i want to work them out . maxie : are you sure this is just about your independence , or is there something else that 's maybe causing you and dante to drift apart ? lulu : no , it was also about johnny . starr : kate howard 's alter tried to kill anthony when she shot out his tires . maybe this time , she tried to kill him again and she succeeded . dante : kate howard was in police custody when the murder happened . starr : so two people wanted anthony dead ? johnny : more than two . the guy had a lot of enemies . dante : including you . johnny : that 's not news to anybody -- anthony and i did n't get along . did i kill him ? no . i had plenty of opportunities to off the guy or just to leave him to die , but i could n't do it . he 's family . what makes you think i would do it now ? dante : look , john , you are still a suspect . so if you are innocent , it is in your best interests to come forward and cooperate fully with this investigation so we can solve the case . starr : dante , wait . there is no way johnny would have killed his own grandfather . dante : what makes you so sure of that ? starr : because i have been working with johnny for months . i think i would know if i was working with a murderer . todd : why would there be something about your baby in my safe ? sam : i do n't know . why was there an article about my baby 's death crumpled up in your motel room ? todd : so heather was right ? that 's why spinelli was babbling in the hallway -- because you were inside my hotel room searching it . you lied to me . on your job application , you said that you were no longer a p.i . , but you 've been investigating me all along . sam : no . actually , spinelli and i were investigating heather . todd : yeah . understandable . sam : we just did n't understand why you hired her . i mean , we figured that she had to have had something on you . todd : i ca n't recruit fresh talent ? sam : from a mental institution ? todd : maybe i felt sorry for her . sam : you still have n't told me why you had the article about my baby 's death . todd : you broke into my office . you broke into my safe . you 're fired -- you . you do n't get to stand there and interrogate me . sam : i want to know why you hired me . i want to know why you showed up at my son 's memorial . you do n't even know me . why are you so obsessed with me ? what is your real interest in me and my baby ? maxie : did n't i say that working with johnny might be a problem ? lulu : is that an `` i told you so `` ? maxie : maybe . look , i 'm sorry , but you 're my best friend and it took you forever to figure out what everybody else knew -- that dante 's perfect for you . and johnny -- i mean , he has his good qualities , yeah , but he 's kind of like a slow - motion train wreck , and he 's never gon na make you happy , and i 'm not gon na tolerate him messing with your marriage . lulu : no . no , no , no , no , no . no . dante and i -- we 're in a really good place . last night was one of the best nights of his life ! what about you ? maxie : what about me ? lulu : your marriage . maxie : oh , right . um , well , i go visit matt on a weekly basis , so ... lulu : how 's he doing ? maxie : he 's doing good . he got a job as an orderly at the infirmary . and i know that 's not the same as being a doctor , but matt likes helping people . and , you know , as hard as prison is , he 's pretty glad that i 'm looking out for patrick and emma . lulu : well , it sounds like you 're doing good taking care of your family . and speaking of , i should probably go check on my dad and make sure he has n't bribed some orderly to smuggle him those cigars or something . maxie : hey , tell your dad and olivia that i 'm thinking about them . lulu : i will . [ door closes ] maxie : [ sighs ] lulu : hey . dante : hey . hey . lulu : how 's your mom ? dante : i 'm just gon na go see her right now . lulu : i 'll come with you . dante : yeah , oh , first , i , uh , i just went to see johnny . lulu : how 'd that go ? dante : good . i - i told him -- well , i apologized for being an -- an insecure jerk and told him i was over it and that i did n't think he was a threat to our marriage . lulu : definitely not . dante : and that he was still a suspect in his grandfather 's murder . starr : it 's just not fair . he 's treating you like you have something to hide . johnny : it 's not your fault . starr : he must be desperate for leads . that 's what my dad always says . johnny : yeah , from what i understand , your dad has a lot of experience being interrogated by the cops . starr : yeah , but he 's usually guilty . you , on the other hand , you would have never killed anthony or anyone else . todd : it 's a done deal . i 'll erase all of the footage . johnny : so , you got rid of it ? todd : well , i was gon na delete the files , but they opened . and that 's when i heard you admit to killing my granddaughter . johnny : thanks . it means a lot for you , of all people , to say that . starr : what do you mean , me , `` of all people `` ? johnny : nothing . it was just an expression . the cops do n't have any evidence on me , and they never will . todd : all right , then . before you pick up your severance pay and hand me your parking pass , i 'll tell you why i cut out that article . because i was grieving . i was feeling guilty . sam : about my son ? todd : about my granddaughter . she was strapped into a car seat in the back of a car that went over a cliff . it may astonish you to hear this , but you 're not the only person that 's ever mourned the loss of a child . sam : you said you were feeling guilty . todd : i was on trial for killing my brother . that 's -- starr and her family -- they were on their way to llanview to support me . i should have sent them a plane . i -- there 's a million different things that i could have done to keep them off the road that night . i did none of them . i have to live with that . starr has to live with that grief of losing a child for the rest of her life . so i cut out that article because it -- it resonated with me . and then i realized that , you know , regret is for losers , so i - i crumpled it up and i threw it in the trash . sam : okay . if it was about your granddaughter , then why give me the job ? why go to my son 's memorial ? todd : because i could n't go to my granddaughter 's memorial because i was in jail . and i gave you a job because you asked for a job . you came to me . you said your life was a mess , you wanted a fresh start , you had split with your husband . you had just lost your baby . jason : what was the other reason ? elizabeth : for not moving forward with ewen ? jason : yeah . elizabeth : my babies . any man i bring into the house affects them . jason : so you -- you were worried they would n't get along ? elizabeth : cameron seems to really like ewen . aiden 's a little more standoffish , which surprises me , because he 's generally very friendly . but i did n't want my boys getting used to somebody who 's not gon na be there . jason : that makes -- that makes a lot of sense . elizabeth : and there was -- there was just this -- there was something else with ewen . jason : what ? elizabeth : something that happened on spoon island . jerry : you know what ? i fear your relationship with miss webber may prove problematic . ewen : let 's -- let 's just leave elizabeth out of this . jerry : well , i will if you will . ewen : and what is that supposed to mean ? jerry : well , you see , love has a tendency to make people sloppy . one night of pillow talk and all our secrets are revealed . ewen : revealed ? i have n't revealed anything to elizabeth . jerry : keep it that way . we would n't want elizabeth or anyone else to suspect that you 're working for me , would we ? todd : i gave you a job because you were in crisis . you said you were all alone , no husband at your side . you took advantage of my compassionate nature , 'cause that 's just the kind of guy i am . i help people . i - i care about their problems . mcbain : manning ! you 're gon na pay for what you did .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : i know what we 've asked is n't easy , but i think in the long run , keeping jake 's identity a secret is -- is the best decision . laura : well , i 'm not so sure about that . elizabeth : laura , monica 's gon na be able to spend time with her grandkids , and sam has moved on to a great life with patrick , and jason can have the family he always wanted without the threat of violence hanging over him . laura : yeah , i 've heard all the justifications . i 'm sure they all apply . but at the same time , you 're denying jason the truth about himself . it 's just never gon na sit well with me . nikolas : well , wait . should we be concerned that you 'll change your mind and tell jason the truth ? laura : no . i 've agreed to stay silent about this . so let that be enough for now . [ scene_break ] patrick : hayden , my name is , uh , dr. patrick drake . do you remember me ? hayden : [ weakly ] uh , i do n't know . where am i ? patrick : you 're at general hospital in port charles , new york . hayden : why am i in a hospital ? patrick : you were shot . hayden : shot ? patrick : yeah . do you remember ? hayden : no . why would anyone shoot me ? what did i do ? jason : it was an accident . you came to see me in the garage where i used to work . i was talking with sam . said you had something to tell me . does -- does any of this sound familiar to you ? hayden : yes . patrick : take your time . jason : before you were shot , you said that you knew who i really am . you knew my real name . is that true ? hayden : yes . [ scene_break ] nathan : judge chua signed off a couple hours ago . ric : [ scoffs ] for all the good it 'll do . nathan : gon na go get that blanket for me now , or am i gon na need to execute a full search of this place ? ric : that 's all right . it wo n't be necessary , detective . here you go , per your warrant . you 're wasting your time . that blanket is not gon na connect you to avery 's kidnapping . nathan : well , i do n't know , ric . forensics does some pretty impressive stuff these days . ric : no , i do n't think you understand , detective . that , uh -- that blanket is useless . it 's not avery 's . it 's mine . [ scene_break ] julian : i 'm gon na say this in the simplest way i can . i 'm no longer in the mob . ava : hmm . you know , i do n't think you 're quite as retired as you want people to believe . maybe you 're just biding your time , regrouping so that when the moment 's right , you can strike and take it all . julian : [ chuckles ] would n't you like to know ? ava : damn straight . julian : hmm . you know , even if your theory were true , do you honestly think i 'd tell you ? ava : um , yeah . i 'm your sister . you can trust me . julian : [ chuckles ] just like you trust me , denise ? ava : well , how about this , then , big brother ? i 'll tell you my secrets if you tell me yours . [ scene_break ] sonny : you cheated on kiki with this woman who 's -- who 's supposedly her aunt ? this has got to stop , because you ca n't keep treating kiki like this , yeah ? you understand ? morgan : you 're right . i know . sonny : okay , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm disappointed in you , no question , but this woman is guilty , and more so because she 's old enough to know the difference . morgan : you do n't understand ! whatever this is between denise and me , it 's not lust . it 's something else . it 's something deeper , a deeper connection , okay ? sonny : more than what you have with kiki ? morgan : i do n't know . sonny : well , you 'd better figure it out really quick , because the longer this lasts , the longer you 're disrespecting kiki -- morgan : i understand that . sonny : well , you 'd better , because that secretary , rosalie , walked in on you and this woman . it 's just a matter of time before somebody else finds out . morgan : well , someone already did . dr. clay walked in on me and denise in bed . [ scene_break ] nina : oh , my god . he 's dead . oh , my god . he 's -- silas is dead . franco : sit down , sit down . nina : silas is dead . franco : nina , you need to tell me what happened . nina : um , i 'm okay . okay . um , when , um , you told me that -- that silas is the one who took avery , yeah , i lost my mind . i could n't believe that a man that i loved for so many years , that he would lie to me like this , and he would do something like that to me . and so i was just -- i was so furious , i just saw red , right ? franco : you came here , then ? you came straight here ? nina : yeah , i came straight here because i wanted to look him in the eye . i wanted to ask him why he would do something like that to me . and so i just -- i pounded on the door . i just -- i - i just -- i kept on pounding on the door , and he would n't open , and then i just -- i - i turned the knob , and -- and -- and it opened . franco : and then ? nina : and then i just saw him , just lying there , with a knife in his back . franco : wait . uh ... where -- where was the knife ? nina : in his back . i told you it was in his back . franco : yeah , but , nina , when i walked in here , you were holding it . nina : i know , because i pulled it out . i did n't know what to do . franco : that 's everything ? nina : yeah , that 's everything , that 's everything . you do n't believe me , do you ? franco : no , i do . nina : god , i 'm on my own . i 'm on my own again . franco : no , you 're not , you 're not , you 're not . i 'm right here . i 'm right here . i 'm right here , and i 'm -- and i 'm with you . nina : are you really with me ? franco : yes , i really am . and i believe you , nina , every word .

[ scene_break ] sonny : so silas caught you in bed with this woman . what did he say ? morgan : [ laughs ] sonny : you think this is funny ? morgan , what did he say ? morgan : what do you think he said ? he ripped me apart , and then he went after denise . sonny : what do you expect ? it 's -- it 's kiki 's father , right ? morgan : i do n't care . he 's no one to judge anybody . he cheated on his wife . sonny : okay , you know what ? you do n't get to do that . you do n't get to deflect the blame . it does n't matter what -- what silas has done . what matters is he caught you in bed with this woman . morgan : and i do n't think he has any right to judge anybody . sonny : but that 's your problem , is n't it ? you do n't think . now the secret is out there . the next question is , what is silas gon na do about it ? morgan : what is he gon na do ? sonny : yeah . morgan : i 'll tell you what he 's gon na do . he 's gon na tell kiki right when she gets back from her trip , 'cause denise and i already tried to talk to silas about not doing that , but he wo n't listen . sonny : you 've got to get ahead of silas and tell kiki yourself . morgan : yeah . i thought of that . sonny : what are you waiting for , then ? if you want to make things work with kiki , you 've got to tell her the truth before her father does . morgan : that may not be necessary . sonny : why not ? [ scene_break ] nina : you believe in me ? franco : of course , i do . nina , i believe in you . i do . if you say you did n't stab silas , then you did n't . that 's the end of it , period . nina : why do you believe in me ? franco : because i love you . if you say you 're innocent , then you -- were innocent the last time , right ? you 're innocent now . nina : i 'm innocent . franco : and if i had just listened to you when you said that you did n't take avery , we probably would n't even be in this mess , right ? nina : thank you . thank you for believing in me . franco : you do n't need to thank me . i do believe you . [ sighs ] i do n't think anyone else in the world will believe you , though , so we need to get you the hell out of here . [ scene_break ] ric : i had it made for my -- my niece avery when she was in michael 's custody . i had hoped to use it as an olive branch to help , uh , clear a path of visitation for sonny , but , you know , michael beat me to the punch , and he gave avery back . so now i 've got a blanket that has the wrong initials . i ca n't really give it to my brother , you know ? nathan : and why did n't you tell me this the first time i asked you about this blanket ? [ scene_break ] jason : do you know who i am ? [ monitor beeping ] hayden : my husband , jake barnes . jason : that 's what you remember , huh ? patrick : um , hayden , let me ask you a question . do you know who the president is ? hayden : [ chuckles ] are you kidding ? obama . sam : hey , look , you -- you and jake are not married . you never have been . hayden : yes , we are . we live in beecher 's corners . sam : you know , that 's -- that 's a lie . ric lansing paid you a lot of money to pretend to be jake 's wife . he wanted to break up jake and elizabeth . hayden : sorry . i 'm sorry . ric lansing , elizabeth -- i do n't -- i do n't know who these people are . jake , please tell me what 's going on . jason : okay . [ clears throat ] okay . i 'm not your husband . i do n't even know what my real name is . i was hoping that you did . patrick : okay , hayden . she 's gon na have to get some rest . she can talk to you again once -- if -- if you 're not my husband , then who are you ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : i 'm glad , uh , we were able to reach an understanding . elizabeth : i could n't agree more . nikolas : hopefully , things can get back to normal . [ laura remembers ] laura : no , nikolas did n't have someone shot . elizabeth : laura , i do n't -- i do n't want to believe this is true , but it all adds up . i think nikolas was behind the shooting . and this is why the truth about jason can never come out . laura : you know , i need some time to get used to all of this , and , um , i do n't think i 'm gon na be able to do that here . nikolas : w - what does that mean ? laura : i ca n't look monica and sam in the eye , knowing that i 'm keeping a son and a husband away from his own family . nikolas : okay . but you -- you agreed that this is what we would do , so -- laura : yeah , which is why i 'm gon na just go out of town for a little while . nikolas : okay . so where would you go ? laura : i think i 'll probably go visit lucky . i have a feeling that this is weighing pretty heavy on his soul , too . nikolas : i understand that , i - i guess . but you 'll be back , right ? laura : when i have figured out how to live with this the way you two have , yes . nikolas : okay . laura : i love you , nikolas . nikolas : i love you , too . [ scene_break ] hayden : this does n't make sense . how can you not know your real name ? jason : look [ clears throat ] it does n't matter . you know what ? you just woke up . you need some time to figure things out . you need some sleep . hayden : how do i know you if you 're not my husband ? sam : i - i have a few ideas , starting with the fact that you did nothing but lie . jason : okay . patrick : okay , that 's enough . sam , jake , you 're gon na have to leave . hayden needs some rest . sam , please . jason : uh ... all right , so you do n't believe her . sam : why do you ? jason : i do n't know . because i know what it 's like to wake up in the hospital without knowing why you got there . sam : are you kidding me ? there is a huge difference between you and hayden . jason : you 're right . you 're absolutely right . i did n't get shot in the head . sam : i know you feel guilty , but that does n't make you obligated to accept what she 's saying at face value . you blame yourself , so you are probably too close to this situation to think clearly , but i 'm not , and i am telling you , based on her prior behavior , there is an excellent chance that she 's faking . [ scene_break ] nathan : so why make me go through the formality of getting a warrant when you knew that this blanket was n't evidence in the kidnapping ? ric : well , you really did n't give me a chance to explain , you know ? your badgering was upsetting nina so much , i wanted to get you out of here before you did any kind of serious harm . but , unfortunately , uh , it was -- it was too late . nathan : what are you talking about ? too late for what ? ric : nina voluntarily committed herself to shadybrook . she had a serious break . nathan : nina 's in shadybrook ? ric : before you -- nathan : when ? ! ric : listen , do n't overreact , okay ? this was nina 's idea . nathan : oh , the hell it was ! you talked her into this . nathan , look , your sister needs help . your mother agreed that shadybrook was the best option . nathan : of course , she did . of course , she did . you know , franco was right from the start . you and madeline are working together . ric : okay . take it easy , detective . you know what ? you 're about to cross a line here . nathan : oh , i pulled your file , lansing . you chained a pregnant woman to a wall . you want to talk to me about crossing a line ? ric : all right , now you 're conjecturing , slandering . now you 're leaving . nathan : you know , just 'cause they did n't throw you in prison like you deserve , that does n't change what you are . ric : what ? your sister 's husband ? nathan : dangerous . [ scene_break ] franco : right . let 's get you back to shadybrook . y - you checked into the minimum - security wing , right ? nina : um , yeah , yeah . franco : okay . nina : yeah , all -- all the voluntary commitments start there . franco : perfect . well , well , let 's just hope that nobody saw that you were gone , and we 'll -- we 'll sneak you back in . piece of cake . we 'll just pretend like you were there the whole time , and -- and it 's the perfect alibi . it 's the best way to protect you . nina , you ca n't tell anyone that you know that ava 's alive , because that would be motive to murder silas , and you ca n't tell anyone that you know that silas took the baby , because that would be motive to murder silas . is that clear ? nina : yeah . i got it . franco : great . nina : i ca n't tell anybody about silas and ava . it 's a motive . i got it . franco : okay . nina : i got it . franco : good . come on . let 's get you back to shadybrook . nina : i ca n't go . i ca n't leave . [ scene_break ] sonny : you got to stop making excuses . like i said , you got to -- you got to own up to it , face her , tell her . if she hates you , so be it . morgan : i do n't need to hurt kiki like that . silas is n't gon na say anything .

[ scene_break ] jason : why would hayden make this up ? why claim to be my wife now ? it does n't make any sense . sam : to get out of having to tell you the truth . jason : you saw her at the garage . she wanted to tell me who i was . it was important to her . it was important to me . you saw her . why -- why the reluctance now ? what -- what -- what 's changed ? what 's -- what 's different now ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : why did n't you warn me your mother knew the truth ? nikolas : honestly , i thought i had the situation under control . never even considered that she would broach the topic with you . elizabeth : what if she decides to change her mind and broach the topic with jason ? nikolas : she wo n't . she wo n't . my mother understands that , uh , having the truth come out is n't worth the consequences . no one will talk . trust me . the secret is ours and ours alone .

[ scene_break ] sam : i ca n't come up with a logical reason for that woman 's 180 , but it does n't mean that there is n't one . lying is her natural state , and she 's probably lying now .

[ scene_break ] valerie : you 'll need to wait in here until a detective can question you . [ cell phone rings ] valerie : i 'll , uh , be right back . [ door closes ] griffin : what happened last night ? you were nervous about going out with franco . elizabeth : [ sighs ] yep . griffin : did you go ? elizabeth : i did . yeah , i did . it was , um -- it was a first date to remember . it ended with franco being hauled off as a person of interest in the murder of ms. prescott , which makes him a suspect in all the other hospital killings . [ scene_break ] scott : well , good call on the blueberry muffins , but as far as the coffee goes , it 's corinthos ' , so do n't get me started . franco : wow . like a full - service attorney -- breakfast and legal advice . scott : a - a - are you kidding me ? there 's nothing funny about this . they 're about to throw the book at you for all those hospital murders , not to mention the failed attempt on lucas jones ' life . you have no alibi . they saw you coming out of the latest victim 's room . franco : mm , does n't mean i killed her . scott : [ sighs ] they are about to get a search warrant , and they 're gon na search your apartment and your art studio . franco : they ca n't do that . scott : yes , they can do that , and if they find anything more incriminating than the sketches of the dead people . franco : oh , no . they found those . scot : yeah , they did , in your art therapy room at the hospital . franco : but that 's inadmissible , right ? because they did n't have a warrant , so that 's like fruit of the poisoned tree . scott : they do n't need a warrant . it 's hospital property . franco : oh , yeah . all right . i guess that makes sense . scott : are they going to find anything that 's gon na bury you deeper ?

[ scene_break ] nathan : claudette 's still in port charles . maxie : because she suddenly changed her mind , decided she wanted to stay ! and you just went along with it . nathan : maxie , no . no , no , of course not . maxie : then why is she still here ? nathan : we were arguing last night . i accused her of arranging to have us stranded . maxie : uh , i 'm pretty sure she actually did that . nathan : okay , so she got pissed off , and she decided to go for a walk , so she got her suitcases out of the back of the car , she walked off , made it about 10 feet , and she fell and twisted her knee . maxie : could n't see that one coming ? nathan : no , maxie , she -- she aggravated an old injury . she twisted it one time when we were camping . maxie : why am i hearing this right now ? ! nathan ... where is claudette ? nathan : she 's here at general hospital . i , uh , i took her in to have her knee checked .

[ scene_break ] griffin : yeah , i heard about franco getting arrested . did you sense anything strange about his behavior last night ? elizabeth : you mean more than usual ? no . the date got off to a - a bumpy start , but then he took me back to his studio and ... i do n't know , it was really nice . that is , until he was arrested on suspicion of murder . griffin : i 'm sorry about this , elizabeth . elizabeth : yeah , me , too . 'cause there was a moment when i actually thought that there might be something between franco and me . [ scene_break ] franco : i have no idea what they 're gon na find . as an artist , i 've kind of always been a little out there . scott : out there ? they found sketches that you drew of all the people that were lethally injected . franco : yeah . whose side are you on ? scott : i 'm on your side . i just -- i ... i do n't understand . why did you make those drawings ? franco : you do n't understand at all , no . why would you ask any artist why they create what it is they create ? scott : [ sighs ] franco : andy warhol painted marilyn monroe , does n't mean that he killed her . scott : marilyn monroe was n't murdered . franco : there 's a sicilian photographer , letizia battaglia , she took pictures at crime scenes , murders . they 're called art . they hang in galleries . they 're worth a fortune . scott : listen , this is n't helping . franco : mark vallen made all of these incredible drawings of all of these mass graves of people killed in the ' 80s in el salvador . did anybody ask him , `` hey , did you kill all those people -- `` ow ! scott : yeah , well , they did n't have a history of murdering people . you do . franco : yeah , but that was a long time ago . and i had a brain tumor . is any of that admissible ? scott : no . none of that matters , because i am going to have a very tough time finding an untainted jury unless we change the venue to , say , you know , mozambique ! ? they are gon na inject you , and they are gon na put you to sleep . franco : i did not inject ms. prescott or any of the others . i 'm not the hospital killer . you believe me , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : the commissioner said that officer spencer caught franco coming out of ms. prescott 's room with an empty vial that tested positive for traces of derisifol . griffin : did franco have an explanation ? elizabeth : he said he found it on ms. prescott 's floor when he went in there to drop off some art she had made . he said he was gon na throw it out . griffin : so ? what do you think ? could franco be responsible for all the murders here at general hospital ?

[ giggles ] oh , yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah . what about this ? look at the dining room . the alcove is big enough . you could have a full dinner party in it . morgan : oh , my parents are gon na love that . lucy : yeah , and listen , places like this do not come on the market all the time , so you need to jump . so you just need to sign , get me a certified check , and then i can have those keys to you probably by supper . [ giggles ] oh , and i did everything easy for you . i 've got my little file here . all you have to do is sign , and i even put little stars where you initial . you know , if i could -- kiki : if , uh ... if you could just excuse us for a moment . morgan , i need to talk to you privately , so ... what 's going on ? morgan : okay , kiki . kiki : no , really , morgan ? you talked to a realtor , you found a place , and you drew up paperwork without ever asking me ? morgan : i was trying to surprise you . i was sure that you 'd want the place just as much as i do . lucy : hey , uh , i can see that you two need a little time to discuss , and that 's fine , because fortunately , my next client is here . so take your time , it 's fine . dillon , hey , i 'm gon na be right with you . [ scene_break ] scott : it does n't matter whether i believe you or not . i 'm your attorney . i 'm here to prepare you for the worst . now , right now , you have only been detained , but if they find anything incriminating , they 're gon na arrest you . now , are they gon na find anything else ? franco : my work lately has been influenced by urban decay . there 's some pretty weird found objects . the police , though , they can make something out of nothing . that 's not the point . scott : that is the point . franco : no , the point is that you are my father , you 're my lawyer , and i need to know that you believe in me . scott : i 'll do what i can . franco : okay , great . not exactly the resounding pledge of faith i was hoping for . [ sighs ] do you have a phone ? i need for you to call elizabeth . i need to know what she 's thinking right now . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : when the police first showed up and started questioning franco , i defended him . but we all know empty drug vials are n't left lying around a patient 's room . griffin : that got you suspicious ? elizabeth : it was just a weird explanation , and then franco flat - out refused to let the police search his studio without a warrant . it was just -- he was being completely uncooperative . griffin : which does n't prove anything . elizabeth : no , it does n't , but it does n't help , either . and then when they escorted him out , he made this huge declaration about how the accusations were groundless and -- and that in 24 hours , he would be out , and we could pick up right where we left off . and i know he wanted me to reassure him , and he wanted me to tell him that i believed him . i could n't . i could n't say it . griffin : how did he take it ? elizabeth : he was hurt . i could see it in his face . he was shutting down . and i was up all night , thinking about it , and i got here early , so i could talk to the guys in security , just 'cause i need -- i need clarity on the timeline . griffin : and what did you find out ?

[ clears throat ] you know , last night , things were just going so amazingly well , and it all changed in like a second . scott : you know , uh , franco , i know you did n't want to hear this before , but i think you should think about this very seriously . i think you should make elizabeth webber off limits . i mean , she has a son with jason morgan , and he does n't like you , for -- for good reason . franco : i 'm not afraid of jason morgan . scott : you should be , because he 's a lethal weapon . so if you get out of this mess , i would stay away from elizabeth . but what about nina , huh ? what happened there ? she loved you ! s - she 's devoted to you . she would be by your side right now . franco : uh , not so sure about that . she told the cops that she thought there was a part of me that i could n't control . scott : what ? franco : scratch that . she told , not the cops , the commissioner herself . scott : [ sighs ] great caesar 's ghost . franco : should be used to it by now , but it 's official . no one believes in me -- not you , not nina ... and now , apparently , not elizabeth .

[ scene_break ] griffin : you really went to bat for franco . elizabeth : i hope the security footage proves my theory . nathan : you were right . we have clear footage of franco exiting the hospital with you at a time when ms. prescott 's monitors were still active , so he could n't have been the one to turn them off . elizabeth : so franco 's in the clear . nathan : [ chuckles ] i would n't say that , but we have no reason to arrest him at the moment , so he 'll be free to go . thank you both for your time . griffin : yeah , no problem . elizabeth : hmm . griffin : all that you 've done for franco -- does this mean you 're starting to believe in him ?

nathan takes claudette to the hospital , feeling `` obligated `` after she 's tripped and hurt her leg and has no transportation or means to go the airport in order to leave town . in all this time , however , maxie is unaware of her fiancé 's whereabouts or whom he 's been with . at first , she is not ok knowing that he 's been with claudette , assessing it 's all too convenient that her vehicle broke down as did his , that claudette missed her flight , and nathan left his phone behind and was out of contact , right when they were going to celebrate being rid of claudette . yet they both determine that claudette is not a threat to their relationship . while claudette waits to see a doctor , she has no clue who it will be . nor does griffin know the patient he 's about to treat . when they run into each other , they both make it very clear they 've known each other before and are stunned , shocked and in awe to unexpectedly come face - to - face again . morgan `` surprises `` kiki by meeting with lucy and having her doing real estate to find them a new place yet has not asked nor discussed it with kiki beforehand . in response to that , she is not ok and finds it very irrational that he 'd assume they should do this nor not discuss and ask her first . at that point , he can tell that she is implying he 's losing it and not taking his meds and he admits he resents her assuming this about him . she angrily tells him he 's behaving just like he 's having a manic episode . not far away , dillon overhears and finds out that they are moving in together , not knowing what to say , think or do .

kevin : now here 's a good example of a loft bed , the kind we were talking about for spencer . it 's not as spacious as his suite at wyndemere , but , you know , it 's tough to compete with a castle . but it gives him plenty of room for a desk and ... a space where he can get away from us . laura . is everything okay ? laura : yeah . yeah . i -- [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i - i just -- i ca n't stop thinking about everything that spencer has been through . kevin : well , that 's understandable . he gave us quite a scare . but he 's safe , and he 's getting back to his everyday life . and it 's -- it 's great that he felt comfortable about going back to camp today . laura : yeah . he 's very resilient . kevin : and the man that kidnapped him -- uh , garvey ? laura : yeah . kevin : he 's in custody at the hospital . laura : yeah . yeah , i know . you know what is really strange about that , though ? spencer does n't seem to care at all about the man who actually did this to him . he only seems to care about valentin and making him look guilty for it . he still is fixated on this idea of avenging his father 's death . [ scene_break ] spencer : scroll down to the arts section . there 's a very interesting piece about modernism .

[ scene_break ] [ both chuckle ] sam : i 'm not some delicate little flower , you know . jason : yeah , i know you 're not a delicate little flower , but what you 're recovering from , i need support just saying the names -- toxoplasmosis , encephalitis . i mean , come on . sam : okay . i think i 'm weaker than i thought . jason : yeah ? sam : mm - hmm . jason : okay . want to go back ? sam : yeah . jason : all right . we can do that . sam . what is it ? sam : that man -- i know him .

[ scene_break ] josslyn : it 's not like the stuff you see at the mall , you know ? manufactured by the billions and sold all over . no , this is unique . i think it 's the most unusual necklace i 've ever seen . nelle : yeah , it 's definitely unusual , joss . uh , michael .

[ scene_break ] valentin : you 're trespassing . spencer : au contraire . staking a claim at what 's mine . valentin : au contraire , huh ? you are having a very difficult time grasping the very simple concept that wyndemere does n't belong to you . spencer : not at the moment it does n't , but i still have my civil suit . you know , the other day , i was watching a wonderful documentary on espn about a famous football player who was acquitted of murder . i do n't know , but it was before my time . but after the victim 's family sued him , he bought a lavish home . why , that is ? because his primary residence could n't be seized in the settlement . so i 'm establishing residency here , muddying up any attempt that you make to keep my birthright from me . valentin : okay listen , kid . this house , these grounds , the whole spoon island -- they 're part of the cassadine estate , left to me by my father . that would make it my birthright . and in his will , he did n't mention you . spencer : hmm . valentin : so this is where you get on the launch and run along home . spencer : and what are you gon na do if i do n't ? pick me up by my collar , throw me out onto the launch ?

[ scene_break ] laura : spencer really worried me the other day . he came very close to just letting the police believe that it was valentin who kidnapped him . kevin : but ultimately , he told the truth . laura : yes , but after a lot of pressure from me . he 's really angry , and i do n't blame him . i mean , there are times when i think i would have a little bit more peace of mind if i knew that valentin was gon na be punished . kevin : it 's terrible that valentin has n't paid a price for nikolas ' death . laura : it is . but ... spencer 's starting to think that the ends always justify the means , you know ? he 's starting to think like a cassadine . it scares me . kevin : spencer has a mind of his own . now , he 's precocious , but he 's still a kid . valentin is amoral and ruthless , but he 's not stupid . he wo n't do anything to spencer .

[ door closes ] carly : hey . look -- who 's your new lawyer , and please do n't tell me it 's him . sonny : what 's going on ? carly : jason got called in for questioning . and i knew it was bogus , but it makes complete sense now . you put your wife up to it so you could buy some alone time with your brother .

[ alexis coughs ] jason : charge me with something or let me go . alexis : ahem . it turns out that the south american mob -- members of the mob are here , and i 'm concerned that you might be a target , so i 'm holding you here for your own protection . do n't ever say i never did anything for you . while you 're here , maybe you can give some thought to how to make this better for sam . jason : oh . what do you want ? alexis : i want you to stop running into her . i want you to not speak to her if you do run into her . just give her a chance to get over you , jason .

[ scene_break ] diane : i do n't think you have fully evaluated the potential consequences of your confession . alexis : i 'm much more concerned about what will happen to my daughter if they find out that she was the one that was driving the car , because she 's a teenager without a license , and she left the scene of an accident where a pregnant woman lost her baby . no wonder she ran off with michael . diane : i assume you 're here to release my client . mac : not just yet . diane : oh , come on , mac . it 's absurd to continue to hold alexis on what amounts to a traffic accident . mac : it 's more than that now . i 'm afraid alexis could be charged with murder . [ scene_break ] robin : these are a rush . okay , that does n't make any sense . why would alexis let michael take the fall for so long ? patrick : i do n't know . maybe she panicked . i mean , if she was driving so recklessly to run claudia off the road and not stop , then she must have been pretty upset about something . which would validate andrea floyd 's story that she showed up at their house in hysterics that night looking for the mayor . robin : which , in turn , would also make it seem like she did send those emails , and she is obsessed with the mayor . patrick : heh . robin , if alexis is obsessed with the mayor , that gives her motive to kill brianna hughes , which makes her a prime suspect . robin : i get your line of thinking , but i do n't believe it .

[ scene_break ] claudia : i know it was a dream , but it felt real . i was holding our baby in my arms , our son . i could feel him . he had warmth . he had weight . and he was making these little gurgling noises . and then i realized that we never thought of a name for him . sonny : i know , we should have done that , but , i do n't know , it was my fault . claudia : and then ... in the dream , you came in to take us home . and i was so excited about that . i just felt so at peace and ... happy . i do n't think i 've ever felt anything like that in real life before . and , um ... then i just jolted awake , you know . and i realized ... sonny : hey , i 'm sorry . i do n't know what i was thinking . you all right ? claudia : no , it 's fine . it 's just a stupid dream . i 've had bad dreams before . i 've certainly had my share of nightmares . sonny : sometimes the good ones are the worst . i 've lost a lot of people in my life . people i 've loved . and i 've had a lot of rough dreams , bad dreams , but the ones that stick ... the ones that -- that hurt the longest ... are when everything 's okay . you 're with everybody you love and whatever happened ... that took them away , did n't happen . and you 're thinking everything 's great . and then you wake up and you ... reality sets in . and all the pain , the loss , and the grief ... starts all over again .

[ door opens , closes ] diane : consent , right of inher ... well , i think we can assume that word is inheritance , so , yes , there is no doubt in my mind , this document that franco 's been attempting to hide from you -- this is an adoption contract . spinelli : the brusque lady does indeed have a keen eye for legal jargon . sam : if franco is setting up an adoption , that means the baby could be alive and well , jason : right . that also means franco 's planning on keeping the baby . diane : well , i think it 's safe to say that he wo n't be leaving any clues as to his whereabouts . spinelli : yes , on the contrary , he 'll do everything in his power to remain hidden . sam : you know what , i 'm gon na go to the hospital to see if i can find any records , dna , blood types , anything . spinelli : that would be helpful in identification if aiden is found . sam : no , when aiden is found . spinelli : do you think us finding this clue might give stone cold a reprieve ? diane : unfortunately , i doubt anything will delay your imminent return to prison . my dad ... matt : you 're doing great . i 'd say i 'd like to take all the credit , but you were in excellent health before you got shot . and your vitals look strong . things are moving quickly . mac : i could say the same about you and maxie . stop taking advantage of my daughter . matt : i am not . maxie just kissed me . if you really want to know , she is the one who wanted to take things to the next level . mac : what next level ? you two are having sex ? i do n't want to know that , all right . just whatever 's going on , i want it to end , now . maxie : mac , i love you , but you are so predictable . mac : i 'm just looking out for you . maxie : no , you 're a mother hen or father rooster or whatever . mac : sweetheart , you 're in an emotional place . you 're worried about me , ok , and this guy is taking advantage . matt : this guy ? maxie : did it look like he was taking advantage ? mac : yes . maxie : i kissed him . matt : my point exactly . mac : stay out of this . maxie : you are so knee - jerk about the guys in my life . you ca n't possibly be upset about me and matt . mac : there is no you and matt . i 'd rather have you be with spinelli . you know , the guy was a nincompoop and a social misfit , but at least you loved him . matt hunter is an ego - driven surgeon who 's treating on your fear that i 'll die . matt : i 'm still here , by the way . maxie : matt is everything that you want for me . he 's secure , he has social polish , and nothing to do with the mob . you should be happy about this . matt : ok , you know what , i do n't want you to be with me just 'cause it makes your dad happy . or spinelli jealous . either you want me for me , or i 'm not interested . brook lynn : hi . johnny : hey . brook lynn : so , um , are you here to reserve a table for my saturday show ? johnny : ah , can i take a rain check ? brook lynn : yeah , that 's -- ok . johnny : i 'm serious . i just , uh , well , i think carly was very smart by hiring you . brook lynn : thank you . johnny : yeah . speaking of which , is she around here somewhere ? brook lynn : yeah , she was here earlier , so ... johnny : right . i 'll go check her office -- brook lynn : johnny , i actually had a really great time last night at jake 's . johnny : i did , too . carly : brook . sound guy 's here . why do n't you go talk to him ? brook lynn : ok . sure . see you around . johnny : uh - huh . carly : hi . johnny : hi . carly : what brings you by ? johnny : this . you left this at my place last night . carly : did i leave that there ? johnny : yeah , you did . carly : oh . johnny : yeah . carly : thank you . johnny : you 're welcome . carly : last night was fun . johnny : yeah . carly : you 're easy to talk to . johnny : and you kind of surprised me . carly : how 's that ? johnny : well , you get it . no judgments , no lectures on how i should find a good , decent job . carly : you should , by the way . johnny : thank you . carly : but you never will . you 're addicted to the risk , and you do n't seem to care that you 're probably going to die before your time . johnny : like i said , you get it . carly : we should get together again . johnny : because it 'll make sonny see red ? carly : because we talked about common goals . johnny : heh . keep our options open , huh ? carly : yeah . nikolas : yes , tell the pis to check in so we can coordinate our efforts . thank you , alfred , thank you . and thank you for your concern . all right . lulu : hey . nikolas : hey . lulu : how are you holding up ? nikolas : as well as expected , i guess . lulu : well , dante and lucky are pulling out all the stops to find aiden . nikolas : yeah . lulu : have you gotten any sleep ? nikolas : no . but this is n't fatigue , this is frustration . my grandmother just decided to drop by and blame elizabeth for losing aiden . lulu : what ? that 's cruel , that 's ridiculous . your baby was stolen from a hospital . what could have elizabeth done ? nikolas : well , according to helena , elizabeth willfully worked herself into an early labor , and if she 'd only let me take care of her , franco would have never had access to aiden . lulu : well , that 's convoluted . nikolas : and on top of the hell that she 's already in , now she 's doubting herself . lulu : i 'm sorry . i should have been there for you and elizabeth during this pregnancy . i was just -- nikolas : no , it 's fine . you were busy , i understand . lulu : no , i was selfish . i was throwing all kinds of judgment at you and elizabeth , and that was wrong . everybody makes mistakes , nobody 's perfect , least of all , me . so ... you 're my brother . i love you and i 'm here now , you know , if you want to talk , and -- nikolas : thank you . thank you , i appreciate that . diane : however noble your motives , the fact remains you pled guilty to a class d felony and are now in the untenable position of having to serve out the rest of your sentence . jason : i do n't regret my decision . diane : yes , well , be that as it may , the authorities have the right to put you back in prison any time they want , and i have no legal means to stop them . so do me a favor , please . try not to kill anyone else in prison so you can get out 2 years , early parole . jason : ok , diane , i 'll do my best . diane : i 'm sorry . if i sound annoyed , it 's because i am . sonny 's obsession with john zacchara is making him more erratic every day . max is walking around on eggshells . i spend half my time with him trying to sooth his frayed nerves . jason : poor max . diane : yes , well , it would n't be so bad if my nerves were n't also frayed from having to take care of you . [ knock on door ] dante : hey . any progress ? spinelli : the jackal continues to toil . dante : we 're running out of time . diane : considering that attorney - client discussions are privileged , this is my cue to leave . dante : look , claire walsh 's superiors are putting on the pressure , and we need to maybe get you back to pentonville sooner than we thought . [ computer beeps ] spinelli : success ! ha ! the jackal has a location for the demented one . johnny : hey . glad i ran into you . olivia : yeah , i got ta get back to work . johnny : no , listen , i want to clear a few things up about last night . olivia : you know , john , you do n't owe me any explanations . johnny : well , carly showed up on my doorstep , uninvited . olivia : yeah ! and she stayed and you talked and you flirted . it 's your life . it 's not mine , ok ? but you know what , i really got ta say , it 's getting a little bit on the nose here the way you just keep pinballing around between every woman that has any connection at all to sonny . first to me , then kristina and now carly ? with a slight detour through brook lynn , whose family is close to sonny ? i mean , who 's next on your stud list , john ? uh , alexis ? how about my cousin connie ? johnny : oh , you honestly think i 'd show you that level of disrespect ? olivia : i do n't know what to believe anymore . johnny : carly and kristina have their own issues with sonny , all right ? they came to me , unsolicited . olivia : yes , and you played right into it . you stoke their anger because you hate sonny and you want him to pay for what he did to your sister . but you got ta ask at some point , john , how is this affecting everyone around you ? there is a ripple effect that you are ignoring here because you 're so blinded by your hatred . sonny is really worth all this ? to make sonny suffer ? johnny : see , there it is . there it is . every time . you just wanted to protect sonny , as always . nikolas : thank you for letting me be here with you . he 's just perfect . he 's perfect . elizabeth : there 's only one problem . nikolas : problem ? what , there 's 10 fingers , 10 toes , that 's what i count at least . elizabeth : he does n't have a name . nikolas : oh , right . elizabeth : have you come up with any ? nikolas : i was n't sure that you wanted my opinion on the subject . elizabeth : oh , i 'm really , i 'm sorry for shutting you out . nikolas : it 's ok . elizabeth : so what do you want to name him ? nikolas : mmm , spencer suggested we call him buzz lightyear . elizabeth : buzz lightyear cassadine ? nikolas : it 's easier to pronounce than most of the names in our family . elizabeth : that would definitely get cameron and jake 's vote , but i think we should go with something a little more traditional 'cause i do n't want social services showing up at my house . nikolas : what if we name him after your father ? elizabeth : jeff cassadine ? that would n't be a -- i was n't really close to him , anyway . but you know what name i have always liked ? nikolas : hmm ? elizabeth : aiden . nikolas : aiden cassadine , ok . elizabeth : aiden . nikolas : but , you know , technically , he would have to be called aiden alexi nikolosovich cassadine . elizabeth : that just rolls right off the tongue , does n't it ? [ giggles ] nikolas : is that a yes ? elizabeth : i think we just agreed on something . nikolas : ok . then welcome to the world , aiden cassadine . lulu : cappuccino , no sugar . nikolas : oh , thanks . lulu : is that aiden 's i d bracelet ? nikolas : yeah . it 's the only thing we have left of him . this , and what , 5 photos . lulu : dante and lucky will find him . nikolas : i 'm really trying to hang onto that . lulu : what helena said about it being elizabeth 's fault that your baby was taken ... does part of you believe that ? nikolas : what ? no ! no . elizabeth was in good health . she had every right to keep working . i mean , come on , she had no way of knowing that aiden was going to be born early and franco would target him . she 's devastated . and now helena 's accusations are only making things worse . lulu : but you wanted her to quit and move in with you to wyndemere . nikolas : i know , i know , we fought about that , about how hard she was pushing herself . but part of that was just me trying to control her . i do n't fault elizabeth . at all . on the contrary , i feel terrible for stressing her out in the first place . she 's a great mother . she tried to do everything right for aiden . i have nothing but admiration for her . lulu : i can see what this is costing you . nikolas : yeah . lulu : i 'm so sorry that i ever judged you . nikolas : thank you . steve : epiphany said you wanted to see me . elizabeth : i want to check myself out of this hospital . if aiden was with me , i 'd already be home . i miss cameron and jake , and they need me to help them understand what has happened to their baby brother . steve : i 'm still concerned about you . i know you do n't want to hear it -- elizabeth : and i really want to apologize . steve : lizzie , you had every reason to be upset about hospital security . you have no idea how terrible i feel . my own nephew stolen right out from under us . elizabeth : i know , i know . and i 'm sorry i lashed out at you . and i know you 're just as upset as any of us . but the truth is , i 'm not exactly blameless here . franco would n't have been able to take aiden if i had carried him to term , which probably would have happened if i listened to nikolas and just taken it easy . steve : i do n't know what idiot told you that , but it 's absurd . you are not to blame for any of this . spinelli : the jackal 's managed to discern the remaining numbers from the zip code on the demented one 's document . it 's for the city of astoria . astoria , oregon . jason : oregon . are you sure about that ? spinelli : yes , the image is clear , 97103 . dante : well , that would make sense . i mean , if he wants to adopt this kid , he 'd want to keep a low profile , right ? people on the opposite coast would n't be as familiar with the kidnapping . jason : i think that could work to our advantage 'cause franco ca n't hide in a place like astoria . spinelli : he might not even deem it necessary to hide . as far as he knows , he 's concealed his dealings even from his closest conspirator . jason : you 're right . this is the first clue that franco did n't leave on purpose . [ cell phone rings ] jason : he wo n't see us coming . dante : it 's lucky . hey , we got a lead . looks like franco might be in astoria , oregon . as a mom i believe books brighten a child 's future . maya : [ chuckles ] that bad ? ethan : chicken broth , applesauce and orange juice . maya : it 's healthy . ethan : yeah , i 'd recuperate faster with a beer . ahh . at least i have a pretty visitor to keep me company . maya : well , i actually came by to thank you . you have done your good deed for the day . ethan : oh , i am beaming with pride . or i will be , as soon as you tell me what my good deed was . maya : well , a girl came into the e.r . today with a gash on her arm , and i just , i took charge , i treated her , and i sent her off . it was just stitches , i know , not brain surgery , but i did n't freeze , so i 'm happy . ethan : see ? i told you , you were being too hard on yourself . maya : well , somehow it helped that you had confidence in me . it was like picking it up through osmosis or something . ethan : through osmosis , that 's doctor speak right there . maya : well , anyway , thanks . ethan : you know , for my good deed , i 'm going to need a reward . maya : i 'm afraid to ask . ethan : i think i 'm going to start with a sponge bath , and we 'll make it a quickie , like 15 , 20 minutes . and then , from there , my shoulder 's a little achy , so you can throw in a massage . maya : that is so tempting . but , no , i have patients i need to get back to . ethan : all right . some other time , then . maya : you know what , why wait , right ? i 'll get epiphany to get right on that . ethan : no , no , no ! maya ! i just remembered , i had a sponge bath last night ! maya ! brook lynn : ok , great . all right . well , i 'll catch him later . thank you . carly : what the hell are you doing here ? you 're supposed to be cozying up with dante . brook lynn : yeah , and i just got off the phone with a neighbor who saw dante leave . which means he 's not home , carly . but even if he was , he 's working the case like i told you . carly : it 's just one excuse after another with you , is n't it ? brook lynn : dante is working a case , which means he 's not in the mood for wine and candlelight . but , johnny on the other hand . carly : i told you to stay away from johnny . brook lynn : yeah , why ? 'cause you want him all to yourself ? johnny : it was always about sonny with you , is n't it ? even when i do n't want to see it . olivia : why is it so hard for you to believe that it could be you that i 'm trying to protect ? johnny : you got a child with the guy . olivia : that i conceived when i was 15 years old ! i grew up , john . i moved on . johnny : yeah , until sonny moved right back into your life . olivia : i 'm really starting to think here that you just keep putting this on me because you do n't want to admit the fact that you are the reason we 're breaking up . johnny : you 're wrong . olivia : no , and you are a stuck record . no matter how many times i tell you that this is not about feelings that i 've had for sonny , you just keep trodding out the same old tired accusations . johnny : ok , olivia , you know what , i have not wanted to nor have i been with another woman since that first night we got together . i love you . and i 'm not the one who ended this , you are . olivia : because i do n't want to see you dead . i can not be with you knowing that at any moment of any day , that you could get killed . i ca n't love a man that could be taken away from me at any moment . johnny : so there it is . so you 're not afraid for me . you 're afraid that i 'm going to win , and that your precious little sonny is going to be destroyed . well , actually , get ready 'cause i 'm not going to stop until he is . olivia : no matter who you have to use . johnny : you 're damn right . elizabeth : well , that 's that . i can officially go home . nikolas : here , i got this . elizabeth : thanks . nikolas : hmm . elizabeth : and thank you for not fighting me on this . nikolas : i know why you want to leave the hospital , i feel the same way . elizabeth : it 's crazy that we came here so excited and full of anticipation . it 's amazing how life can just change on a dime . nikolas : we 'll find aiden . elizabeth : i really want to believe that , but we do n't know anything , so -- nikolas : i know , i know . but whatever 's happening to aiden right now , it 's out of our control . we have to have faith he 's going to be with us soon . hope is all we have right now , we have to hold onto it , all right ? elizabeth : ok . i 'm really glad you 're with me . nikolas : we 'll get through this . so will aiden . let 's go . dante : all right , lucky , yeah , i 'll check in again when we get there . spinelli : the jackal has reserved 2 seats on the 3 p.m . flight to portland , oregon , with a connection to astoria . jason : ok , good , print it out and we 'll get going . dante : i 'll alert the astoria police . jason : no , no , no . we need the element of surprise . dante : well , how 's franco going to know if we alert the cops ? jason : i do n't know , but we ca n't take any chances . dante : yeah , but we might need the help of local law enforcement there . they could have information for us -- recent activity , house rentals , that kind of stuff . spinelli : i can do all that , and more -- security camera footage , and -- dante : all right , you just do it . jason : dante , we need to keep this trip quiet . if franco vanishes , we have nothing to go on . good morning ! ethan : you know , thanks for the offer , but , you know , i 'm well enough to bathe myself . you know , i got full range of motion ... epiphany : it was n't an offer . ethan : no , but i do n't want to waste your time . i 'm sure there are plenty of patients who require your expert care . epiphany : uh - huh . and first i 'm going to start by shaving you as clean as a baby 's bottom , because that chin scruff has got to go . ethan : johnny ! johnny ! buddy . great to see you , mate . i 'm so sorry to cut this short , so to speak , but i need to confer with my business partner . johnny : we 're business partners now , huh ? ethan : yeah , we have that very important business thing to discuss . johnny : ah . ethan : it 's top secret . epiphany : ok . i 'm gon na go and finish my rounds . but , um , i 'll be back . hmm . johnny : ha ha ! ethan : help me break out of here , before epiphany gets her hands on me . johnny : i think it 's safer here , actually . ethan : why , what now ? johnny : well , carly is coming onto me pretty strong . ethan : what the hell for ? johnny : i do n't know , must be my charm and my good looks . [ both laugh ] ethan : no , seriously . what could carly possibly want with you ? johnny : look , she 's pissed at sonny , and like everybody who 's angry with the man , i seem to be in their default position . ethan : ok , tell me you 're not seriously thinking about going there . johnny : well , she 's probably just blowing steam , but if she is serious , nailing carly could be the best way of getting revenge . carly : why i want johnny is my business . your business is to sleep with dante . so back off johnny and get on it before i fire your ass . brook lynn : i am not your puppet , carly . all right , you ca n't just push me around . carly : i 'm paying you $ 50,000 . i got you an apartment . i gave you a singing gig at the metro court . but , hey , if you want to throw all that away and go back to bensonhurst , go on . you were running a pretty good scam with the local pretzel vendor . brook lynn : is that a threat ? carly : take it any way you want it . brook lynn : really ? ok , well , then let 's make a deal . back off of me , leave johnny alone , and i wo n't tell jax that you 're spending time with yet again another mobster . got it ? nikolas : here we are . elizabeth : maybe we should have picked up cameron and jake on the way home . nikolas : no , i think you were right to ask audrey to wait to bring them by . you need to get settled in first . elizabeth : the house is going to seem so empty . karen : look at that beautiful oak tree , pablo . maybe when you 're a little older , we 'll build you a tree house . and we 'll have picnics on the lawn . this place is just perfect for us , sweetheart . oh , i 'm so grateful to bobby for picking it . and for bringing you into my life . mmm . spinelli : ok , here is your ticket . i took the liberty of printing out additional information about astoria . and if anything else comes up , i 'll email it to you . jason : you 're the best . tell sam , you can basically fill her in on everything . i 'll call her as soon as i get to oregon . spinelli : yes , of course .

'cause you did n't get to stick it to him one more time . you 're not gon na be able to stick it to me , either . it had nothing to do with me , like i said . but i guarantee if you make the mistake of making this personal between us , it 's gon na be your downfall . sonny : and yours is gon na be your daddy .

[ scoffs ] have n't you noticed your girlfriend always makes everything about herself ? cameron : i think she 's just worried . josslyn : emma has nothing to be worried about . i know for a fact that spencer did n't run away because of her . cameron : how do you know that ?

'cause you know what ? i 've been doing a lot of wallowing lately , and , honestly , what the hell good does that do anybody ? really ? you know , i got to start making some positive choices , taking some positive actions . i do n't know exactly what that 's gon na be ... kiki : [ chuckles ] olivia : ... yet , but right now , i 'm gon na start with helping you get this coffee to your car . kiki : well , thank you . i appreciate that . olivia : and you know what ? not for nothing , but you can not live on muffins and coffee , definitely , even if it 's coming from kelly 's . eventually , you and the quartermaines are gon na have to eat some actual decent food . kiki : [ chuckles ] tell me about it .

[ sighs ] this is something that she wants me to do that would be mutually beneficial . that 's all . nina : and you 're worried about your girlfriend carly 's ex - husband ? franco : uh , no . he 's an arrogant , ruthless bastard , which kind of describes the woman that i 'm talking to you about . nina : the one with whom you 're not having an affair ? franco : right . nina : right . franco : she wants something from me , and i would have to go behind carly 's back to give it to her , and that -- that just sounds like too big of a betrayal for me .

[ scene_break ] william : well , as you can see , our extended - care facility is state - of - the - art . patrick : oh , it 's very impressive . do you have research labs at the facility ? william : we do , and between you and me , our experimental research program is astounding . patrick : oh , i 'd love to get a tour of that . sam : excuse me . um , is a ladies ' room by ... ? william : just , uh , down the hall to the right . sam : oh , thank you . [ chuckles ] thank you . i 'll be back . patrick : so , william , are these , um , privately funded ? william : we have , uh , pharmaceutical companies funding research , as well as private donors . patrick : right . you know , i did an experimental procedure a few years back -- uh , kind of a tragic case , actually . teenage boy , son of an alleged mobster -- he was hit in the head from a ricochet bullet aimed at his father . boy was comatose for nearly a year . i was able to wake him up with , uh , an experimental procedure . william : that 's one of the reasons our board is so eager to meet with you . patrick : right . well , there were some , uh , factors -- some -- some -- some very unique factors involved . one of them was the boy 's age . i 'm not quite sure the surgery would have been quite successful if the boy was , let 's say , 10 years older . so , i 'm wondering -- have you had any success with coma patients in your care facility here that have spontaneously awakened ?

[ scene_break ] patrick : [ chuckling ] i do n't mean to drone on about my accomplishments . i am really excited about what i see here at crichton - clark , so let me -- let me hear more about the facility . now , you say that your funding comes from pharmaceutical companies as well as private estates , right ? william : we have many individuals who are very interested in our research . patrick : right . william : `` cutting - edge `` does n't begin to describe it . patrick : and it all happens [ clicks tongue ] right behind that door , huh ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : 24 hours , right ? that 's what they say . the best chance of finding a missing child is within the first 24 hours . he 's been gone way longer than that . britt : only spencer is n't missing . he ran away to a luxury hotel , and knowing spencer , he 's probably holed up in someplace even better eating olives and -- nikolas : what if he 's not , britt ? what if he 's -- what if he 's not ? britt : spencer will be fine . you 're not . you need to rest . nikolas : i ca n't -- i can not rest right now . britt : you need to lie down and let yourself sleep for just one hour -- one hour . okay ? i 'm gon na find spencer . nikolas : [ sighs ] thank you . i do n't know how i could get through any of this without you .

[ scene_break ] patrick : i 've got to tell you , william -- i 've got several research projects under way , and i really like what i see here at crichton - clark , but it would be really nice to see what 's behind that door there in the lab . william : [ sighs ] i wish i could . unfortunately ...

[ scene_break ] britt : i said an hour , spencer . [ sighs ] where are you ?

[ scene_break ] silas : i guess i understand why sam feels that way , but i 'd like to think -- you know , i know nina , and the woman i married does n't have a malicious bone in her body . kiki : if you ever need to talk , or if you just want to brood silently with another person , you know where to find me . silas : thank you . that means a lot .

nina babbles about patrick intentionally trying to hurt rafe and sam 's willingness to believe patrick over silas . silas says fate will sort it out and that he just wants to make peace with the situation . nina persuades him to wait until she can walk down a flight of stairs by herself before he goes to thank the physical therapist for his efforts . franco lets nina hang out in his studio while she should be in physical therapy . he tells her that he used her as an excuse when he did n't want to tell carly where he had been . he tells her that someone caught him trying to do something behind carly 's back . she figures out that it was the missing kid that caught him , because he kept looking at the flyer while he was talking . on the phone , spencer tells britt where he is . josslyn tells cameron that spencer is hiding at her house ; so of course , he tells his mother . while britt waits for spencer in the park , elizabeth finds him at carly 's house and takes him home .

[ scene_break ] lucas : [ sighs ] you know , man , i remember the day when sam found out that silas was already married . everything she thought she knew completely turned upside down . she did n't deserve what silas did to her any more than i deserve this . morgan : can we stop talking about silas , please ? lucas : i 'm not talking about silas . i 'm talking about sam . morgan : it 's not about silas . it 's about you and brad , okay ? silas was n't cheating , technically , 'cause nina was in a coma for 20 years . lucas : what , so what are you saying , brad has a husband in a coma somewhere ? morgan : [ sighs ] i 'm saying we do n't know what brad 's deal was . maybe his husband was okay with him cheating . he obviously was n't keeping you guys a secret 'cause you guys live together . lucas : no , the point is brad should 've been honest with me instead of stalling our wedding plans . i mean , what , was he hoping that we would just never actually make it down the aisle ? morgan : yeah , it 's a little crazy . lucas : a little ? [ scoffs ] i mean , it 's like he thought that if we argued about cake long enough , one of us would die first . i mean , come on , man . did he actually think that he could keep this charade going once carly started talking about a double wedding ? morgan : my mom said what ? lucas : you know , that brad and i could get married with her and sonny . morgan : what are you talking about ? my -- my parents are getting married ? lucas : oh , god . what -- nobody told you ? morgan : huh . lucas : oh , geez , man , i - i - i ... [ sighs ] well , i mean , brad 's the one who can keep a secret . obviously , i ca n't keep my big , fat mouth shut . i - i 'm really sorry , man . morgan : no , no , no , no . lucas : i thought ... morgan : no , no . lucas : ... you would have already known . morgan : it 's fine . it 's fine . i 'm sure that 's what all the missed calls were about . lucas : what , you never returned them ? morgan : no . i guess i 've been occupied with my own problems . [ scene_break ] ava : i do n't know where you got your info , but you 're wrong . carly : do n't bother denying it , okay ? i know that you had your hands and your mouth all over my son . and morgan is young and impulsive , and you are clearly taking advantage of him . ava : look at you . are n't you the mama bear . tell me something . do you always make the rounds when you think your son is getting a little action ? or am i just special ? carly : oh , you 're special . 'cause you have the same face as your sister . and that 's why it 's confusing for morgan . ava was a sexual predator who took advantage of my son . ava : did it ever occur to you that ava might have had real feelings for your boy ? carly : no . ava only cared about ava . she killed an innocent woman , denise . connie falconeri was unarmed . she shot her point blank , because she found out that your brother was really julian jerome . that defines a cold - blooded murderer . ava : well , like i keep telling you , i ai n't her . carly : yeah , but see , you 're following the same pattern . ava was selfish , and you 're clearly selfish , because you 're taking advantage of my son , and you do n't give a damn about kiki . ava : no . i would never want to do anything to hurt kiki . carly : wow . you 're getting really defensive . is this about morgan , or did you do something else to hurt that poor girl ? [ scene_break ] kiki : why do n't you want me to call the police ? franco : because -- kiki : because why ? ! franco : because i ... because if they get here and they -- and they see this , they 're gon na -- they 're gon na jump to conclusions . they 're gon na think that i had something to do with this . kiki : why ? why would they think that you had something to do with this ? franco : because i 'm the prime suspect in anything that happens in this town , whether i had something to do with it or not . kiki : oh , my god . you knew . you tried to stop me from coming inside . because you already knew that my father was dead . [ scene_break ] nathan : okay , so , if it 's not madeline and it 's not ric , then who else would frame you for kidnapping avery ? franco : listen , you ca n't tell anyone that you know that silas took the baby because that would be motive to murder silas . is that clear ? nina : i do n't know . um ... nobody . nobody . i 'm sorry . i should n't have said anything . nathan : hey , hey , hey , hey . nina . nina , listen to me . i love you . i 'm your brother , and i 'm a cop . if you can trust anybody , it 's me . nina : i know that . nathan : okay . so let me help you . all right ? what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] kiki : no . no . franco : kiki ... kiki : no . franco : look , how could i have known that silas was dead ? kiki : [ crying ] you did n't even wait for me to check his pulse , because you knew ! franco : i can explain this . kiki : you knew -- you knew that he was stabbed even though there was n't a weapon . what 's in the bag ? you said that it was takeout . i want to see it . show me . i want to see it . franco : calm down . calm down . let -- let 's all just take a breath and relax for a minute . kiki : [ breathing heavily ] hello ? please help me . it 's an emergency . my father has been murdered . [ scene_break ] brad : lucas seemed more interested in the fact that i lied to him rather than knowing why . felix : wow . he 's taking it worse than i thought . brad : thanks . felix : but once he has a chance to cool off , i 'm sure he 's gon na want to hear the whole story . brad : [ sighs ] and what happens when i tell him ? hmm ? all the explanations in the world wo n't change the fact that i 'm still legally we d to someone else . okay ? i - i can never make good on the commitment i made to lucas . [ scene_break ] lucas : listen , morgan , i ... [ sighs ] i 've been going on and on about my own situation , here , and did n't even ask you what was going on with you . 'cause obviously something is , so tell me what 's on your mind . you been having problems with kiki ? morgan : no . kiki 's been great . lucas : then what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] ava : i did n't do anything to kiki . you think i 'd want to hurt her ? she 's part of my new family . i would never want to jeopardize that . carly : then you should 've thought about that before you started making inappropriate advances towards my son . ava : i do n't answer to you . carly : [ scoffs ] ava : and for you to come over here at this hour and accuse me of hurting my niece , that is lower than low . carly : the more self - righteous you get , the more obvious it is that there 's something going on between you and morgan . ava : well , i 'm not saying there 's something going on , and i 'm not saying there 's nothing going on . what i 'm saying is that morgan is a big boy , and i do n't think he 'd appreciate his mommy butting in his personal life . so why do n't you do all of us a favor and get the hell out of here ? [ scene_break ] morgan : thanks . but , uh , i just do n't want to get into it . lucas : you sure ? we 're family . you can tell me anything . morgan : not about this . lucas : why not ? morgan . you in some kind of trouble ? [ scene_break ] kiki : you stay away from me ! franco : okay . all right . but you and i , kiki , we need to get our story straight . i 'm gon na need for you to tell the police when they get here that you and i came in here together . kiki : you want me to lie for you ? or what ? you 're gon na stab me ? like you stabbed my father ? [ scene_break ] dante : that was , uh , dispatch . i just got called in to work a case . lulu : i kind of picked up on that . dante : uh , sorry to cut everyone 's evening short . lulu : well , who says we all are gon na go home just because you have to go to work ? dillon : lulu 's right . the night is still young . valerie : yeah , just try not to think of us having a beer while you 're out walking a crime scene . dante : yeah , you know , your sympathy moves me . [ laughter ] dante : it really does . uh ... next round 's on me . dillon : thank you . we will take you up on that . dante : are you gon na get home okay ? lulu : yeah , i 'll be fine . go stop the bad guys . dante : i love you . lulu : i love you , too . [ scene_break ] nina : you have to understand , what i 'm about to tell you is going to sound insane . even for in here . but , um ... um ... you have to believe me . okay ? nathan : okay , i will . i will . nina , i promise , okay ? whatever you tell me , i 'll believe you . nina : okay . um , tonight , i found out that there is someone else framing me . [ cell phone rings ] nina : do you -- do you have to get that ? nathan : yeah , i ... um ... it 's dante . i got to take it . it might be important . yeah , what 's up ? dante : 911 got a call from silas clay 's address . possible homicide . meet me over there . nathan : all right . all right , i 'm on my way . nina : what 's that about ? nathan : police business , you know . nina : okay . nathan : i got to ... nina : you have to go ? nathan : i got to go , yeah . nina : oh . nathan : i 'm sorry , nina . i 'm sorry , but we got to pick this up tomorrow . nina : o - okay . yeah , we 'll do that . nathan : i 'll be back tomorrow , okay ? i promise , all right ? [ scene_break ] franco : i know what this looks like . i did n't do this to your father . i would n't -- i would n't do something like that . kiki : you would n't kill someone ? franco : not silas . 'cause i know that that would hurt you . kiki : oh , right , because you care about me so much . [ sniffles ] franco : i do . and i know what this looks like . but that 's not what happened . kiki : then what did happen ? if you did n't kill my dad , who did ? [ scene_break ] valerie : so much for date night . [ chuckles ] dillon : i 'm guessing that happens a lot , dante getting called away like that . lulu : unfortunately . but it 's part of his job , so i understand . dillon : a lot better than i would . if i was married to a cop , and i had to worry about her risking her life every day , forget it . i 'd be a basket case . lulu : oh , you get used to it . although i will admit that i 've spent more than a few nights waiting by the phone . they say that no news is good news , but no news is pretty rough , too . valerie : then you must know how dante felt while you were in canada . lulu : what ? valerie : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to ... i 'm gon na run to the ladies ' room . dillon : um , i do n't think she meant anything by that . lulu : i spent a lot of time annoyed that she was the third wheel in my life , and how here i am doing the exact same thing to her on her date . [ chuckles ] dillon : just admit it . you hate being wrong . lulu : what ? dillon : you always have . you will slog for miles through the jungles of the markham islands without complaint . lulu : [ scoffs ] dillon : you will face down your father 's enemies . you will handle any adventure that is thrown your way . but the minute -- the minute that somebody points out that you are possibly wrong or the smallest bit unfair -- lulu : what -- i am a very fair person ! dillon : you do that . you do just that . you get all flustered , your face turns red . lulu : i - is my face red ? dillon : it 's a little bit flushed . it 's very attractive . lulu : okay , thank you for the compliment . and now that we have established that i am wrong , unfair , and the third wheel ... dillon : and you are beautiful and smart and courageous . lulu : [ sighs ] dillon : i mean , you have to have some flaws or nobody would be able to stand you . lulu : not even you ? dillon : well , i 'm different . we 're related through a fraudulent marriage . i 'm fully able to appreciate how amazing you are . lulu : for the record , you are the only person who can criticize me ... and make me smile at the same time . dillon : well , what can i say ? it 's a gift . [ scene_break ] morgan : thanks for the offer . lucas , i just , you know ... last thing i want to do is dump all of this on you . lucas : sounds kind of serious . morgan : no . do n't worry about it . i have a feeling it 's gon na be okay . [ scene_break ] kiki : tell me , franco . if it was n't you who killed silas , then who was it ? franco : i do n't know . kiki : you do n't know . that 's your answer ? franco : yes . but if you would give me a second to explain -- dante : police . freeze . [ scene_break ] carly : you 're as big a liar as your sister . but even more grating , if that 's even possible . ava : then what are you sticking around for ? carly : [ chuckles ] i 'm gon na leave . 'cause i know morgan 's not here . but you know , denise , you stay the hell away from my son . and if i find out that you did anything more than kiss , there will be hell to pay . ava : mm . i do n't take threats very lightly . when somebody comes after me , i take care of them . you thought my sister was dangerous ? well , let me tell you something worth knowing -- runs in the family . [ scene_break ] franco : i know what this looks like , but i did n't do this . dante : drop the bag , franco . put your hands in the air . kiki : [ crying ] franco : okay . nathan : kiki , are you okay ? okay . he 's dead . dante : i think i found our murder weapon . [ scene_break ] [ soft rock music plays ] lulu : to fraudulent marriage . dillon : the gift that keeps on giving . lulu : i hope you know that , even if i do n't always act like it , i appreciate your honesty . dillon : [ sighs ] well , speaking of honesty , have you had the chance to read the latest chapter of my script ? lulu : are you ready for some criticism that 's for your own good ? dillon : lay it on me . lulu : i ca n't . i did n't read it yet . dillon : and here i am , all braced and everything . lulu : [ laughs ] dillon : ready . lulu : things have been really crazy lately . i 'm sorry . i will read it soon , i promise . dillon : okay . okay . but just so we 're clear , honesty does not have to be synonymous with brutal . lulu : mm , we 'll see about that . valerie : what 'd i miss ? lulu : the saddest game of pool i have ever seen . valerie : those guys are finally finished ? thought they 'd never sink one . dillon : i think we need to show these guys how it 's done . actually , i know this really great three - player game . either of you ever heard of cutthroat ? lulu : i ca n't say that i have , but i 'm willing to learn . dillon : all right . valerie : you know what ? i think i should call it a night . i have to be to the station early tomorrow . dillon : right . what were we just saying about the life of a cop ? lulu : that was ... valerie : yeah . lulu : [ chuckles ] dillon : i 'll take you home . valerie : thanks . dillon : uh , do you need us to drop you off at your apartment ? lulu : oh , uh , thanks . know what -- since i 'm here , i 'll just grab some takeout for me and dante . dillon : okay . we 'll see you later . [ scene_break ] felix : i think i have a solution . brad : what 's that ? felix : get your married ass up , go to carly 's , and make things right with lucas . brad : what ? i just ca n't show up at his sister 's house in the middle of the night . felix : fine . then call him . brad : i tried . felix : well , try again . you ca n't make things right until you tell lucas everything . brad : felix , i already tol -- felix : everything . [ scene_break ] lucas : [ sighs ] i think i 'm gon na turn in . i did n't get much sleep last night . morgan : well , you 've got a lot on your mind . lucas : yeah . seems like it 's going around . morgan : mm - hmm . lucas : i 'll see you in the morning . morgan : [ sighs ] [ turns tv on ] newscaster : we have a news van on the scene , and we 'll be bringing you further updates as the situation unfolds . insiders at city hall say the mayor has been advised . no word yet on whether a statement will be forthcoming , although the incident clashes with the mayor 's promises to reduce violent crime in the city . sources inside the pcpd confirm that an investigation is underway .

[ scene_break ] ava : is that really you ? valentin : it used to be , yeah . ava : i can almost see ... the man that you are now . it 's very hard to believe . valentin : our situations are different . and i did have a lot to overcome . ava : one would think it would 've made you a better person . valentin : are your burns responsible for your sunny outlook on life ? is that why you 're hiding out in here ? ava : [ sighs ] i suppose you have a choice when life hands you a misfortune like this . you can develop compassion and understanding , use your pain to be sure that others do n't suffer . or you can become bitter , inured to the pain of others . valentin : i do n't see it black and white like that . see , i was born handicapped . i found a way to remedy that . it was n't cheap , so i had to make certain compromises to get what i wanted . i 'm neither saint nor sinner . i 'm a little bit of both . ava : it was n't a little thing when you killed nikolas . and now you want me to change my testimony to help exonerate you -- and for what ? so i can once again be pretty ? valentin : i 've already been exonerated . all charges regarding nikolas ' death have been dropped . ava : then why do you care about my testimony one way or the other ? valentin : spencer is being indulged my the adults in his life , and they are encouraging him to pursue his civil suit . ava : and you 're afraid he 's gon na win . valentin : no . no , i 'm not afraid . a lot of unpleasantries are gon na come up about me , to be sure , but also nikolas . and spencer may be a brat , but he does n't deserve to have his illusions of his father dashed in front of an open courtroom . ava : mm . how benevolent of you . valentin : to a point . my real concern is for charlotte . i do n't want her watching all - out warfare between her relatives . so , i think what 's best for my daughter is that this all just goes away . that 's what i want . [ scene_break ] laura : spencer , i do love you . never , ever doubt that . i love you with all my heart . spencer : i want to stay here with you . laura : and i want that , too . spencer : [ sniffs ] laura : but more than that , i want you to be safe . now , listen ... spencer : [ sniffs ] [ sighs ] laura : ... valentin is a very dangerous man , okay ? kevin and i saw that firsthand . you know , and when i think about you being with him alone this morning , that 's terrifying , you know ? what if he lost his temper and he hurt you , or even worse ? you know , like what he did to your father , and then , he just ... covers his tracks . he escapes justice . and ... and then , you would be gone , and ... [ sighs ] ... you are all i have left of your father . i could not bear to lose you . spencer : then do n't send me away . kevin : spencer ... this is a very , very difficult decision for your grandmother , and for you . i know . for me , too . we love having you here . you make us laugh and ... think and ... you challenge us . we do n't want you to leave but we have to act in your best interests . you seem to think that you wo n't be hurt , that there are no consequences . that 's understandable . boys your age always believe they 're immortal . but spencer , you 're not . valentin is an ongoing threat , and that scares your grandmother and me , even if it does n't scare you . spencer : there 's only one thing that scares me . kevin : what is it ? spencer : being all alone . [ scene_break ] valentin : spencer 's a fortunate child . he was born healthy , knowing he was loved and wanted . ava : a love you stole from him when you killed his father . valentin : well , regardless of what you think happened -- ava : i do n't think it ! i know it ! i know what i saw , and i saw you shoot nikolas in cold blood . valentin : well , you and i see it differently , but it does n't matter . my goal is to avoid rehashing what happened , both here and in court . ava : by bribing me with some miraculous transformation . valentin : ava , you are far from the path to overcoming your current circumstances -- sequestered here , mirror covered . what good are you ? what are you doing for the world ? ava : before i can consider the world , i have to take stock of myself . and you 're right about me . i am not a good person . i have visited pain on people that makes me wince to think of now . i 'm gon na nurture the one thread of decency i have left inside me . i 'm gon na hold on to it , and i 'm not gon na let it go . i 'm gon na prove that i am not as ugly on the inside as i am on the outside . valentin : that 's gon na be a lot easier when the world does n't see you as a monster . ava : even if i believed that you could connect me with these miracle workers , i will not change my testimony . i remember what happened . i know what happened . i know that you threatened me , nikolas defended me , and you murdered him . and i do n't understand how you could 've done that . he was a father , too . and his child deserves to know that this world is not as unfair as you 've made him believe . [ scene_break ] laura : spencer , you 're not alone . spencer : i 'm an orphan . laura : oh . spencer ... kevin : your mother and father may not be here now , but you have your grandmother , your aunts , your uncles , cousins , and me . laura : and even though i 'm not there with you physically , i always have you in my heart . you know , spencer , i want you to go back to boarding school , because i want to protect you . it 's not 'cause i want to get rid of you . you know that , right , honey ? spencer : but if i 'm not in port charles , how will i keep an eye on valentin ? laura : and that 's just it . it 's not your responsibility . spencer : but he 'll escape . i wo n't even get to sue him , which pales in comparison to putting him in prison . but it 's the best thing i can do for my father . kevin : spencer , you will make your dad proud every single day of your life by honoring his memory and just being the fantastic kid that you are . but your grandmother needs to honor your father , too . and the only way she can do that is by protecting you . your dad would want you to have a long and happy life . spencer : okay . i 'll go to boarding school . that way , we shall both honor father . laura : [ sighs ] i love you so much , so , so much . [ scene_break ] jason : like i said , we should concentrate on the here and now and what 's real . and what 's real is , you 're improving . sam : but my mind -- are these the memories or hallucinations or nightmares ? jason : shh . just stop . you 're exhausted . you need your rest . you need to get some sleep and heal , so just try to get some rest . sam : okay . jason : okay ? close your eyes . sam : i will . jason : close your eyes . now , dream of coming home to me and the kids , how happy we 're gon na be . and all of this will be over soon . i promise you that .

[ chuckles ] what about you ? what 's going on with sam ? jason : she 's good . she 's good . the antibiotics are starting to work . she 's confused . she does n't know what 's real and what 's not . sam : just being around you puts the people you love in danger ! and i 'm not gon na let scout or danny end up like morgan . no , i am saving their lives right now . sonny : i would never want anything to happen to your children . sam : oh , that 's just the problem , is n't it , sonny ? you never want anything to happen to anyone . it just does . you pull death and destruction toward you , just like you pulled jason back in . and it ends now .

's room the night he died . and then michael was remembering things and , you know , i had to make some hard choices . jason : yeah , you let michael think he did it . dr. thomas : that 's right . that 's right , i did . and it would have worked if you 'd just allowed him to believe what i was saying . sonny : hey ! sam : no , no ! jason : no , no , no ! dr. thomas : get over there ! put the gun down . sonny : it 's not going to work ! dr. thomas : put the gun down . yes , it will . it has so far . sonny : let go of her , i 'll put the gun down . jason : put the gun down ! dr. thomas : i swear to god i 'll do it ! now , you guys are just going to relax , right ? you 're not going to call anybody . you 're not going to call 911 , you 're not going to call security , you 're not going to call the nurses ' station . you 're just going to stay here and be very quiet if you ever want to see sam alive . come on . sonny : wait , wait , wait -- wait , wait , wait ! we 're doing this the smart way .

[ lulu sighs ] lulu : i told you about me and johnny . i was stuck between him and logan . but now logan hayes is dead , and johnny confessed to killing him . johnny should n't have been locked up in the first place . i had to break him out . i mean , you would 've done the same thing for dad . so i went to the quartermaines and i stole a gun and i put it in my purse and i snuck into the pcpd . it was very wrong and one of the most stupid things i could have done , but i have n't been thinking clearly lately . and he grabbed me and dragged me out . i was terrified . i still am terrified . and i 'm -- i 'm not supposed to be like this . i 'm a spencer . i 'm supposed to be tough and resourceful , but i am -- i 'm not like dad . i 'm like you . lulu : when you thought you killed rick webber , you lost your mind . i 've killed logan hayes . i 'm afraid i 'm losing my mind , too .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : you do n't want justice for logan . you want revenge because laura dumped you for luke . scott : that 's ancient history . nikolas : well -- sam : well , maybe , but the parallels are obvious . laura did choose luke over you , just like lulu chose johnny over your son . scott : lulu lied to logan , led him on . sam : yeah , is n't that what laura did to you ? nikolas : you just ca n't get over it , can you , scott ? that 's why you made sure lulu found out about the rape in open court . that 's why you tried to -- tried to prosecute her , oh , the first time that logan attacked her . scott : she clubbed him with a monkey wrench and put him in a coma . sam : well , he probably deserved it . scott : and now she 's aiding and abetting the guy that killed my son and left him for dead in the street . nikolas : you do n't know who killed your son . oh , wait , you do n't -- you do n't particularly care , do you , as long as you can use the power of your office to destroy lulu ? laura would be really proud of you for that . scott : i wonder what laura would think right now , what her daughter turned into . sam : oh , and i -- i just -- i 'm not sure what -- what that would be , really , a scared young woman you 're hunting down like an animal . scott : lulu is the reason why johnny attacked logan at the metro court . nikolas : you do n't have any proof of that . scott : he was a threat . logan was a threat and johnny wanted him out of the way . sam : oh , i -- i 'm -- is that what you 're planning on saying in court , or are you going to make sure johnny 's dead before that happens ? nikolas : why do n't you hold your revenge on the real target here ? luke . i mean , it 's him that you want , right , not really his daughter . scott : luke -- he 's a has - been . he 's a drunk . he 's destroyed his own life . he does n't need my help to do anything . nikolas : what would laura think if she were to wake up right now ? how would you explain this to her ? how would you justify allowing the police to shoot at her daughter ? do you believe she 'd forgive you for that ? [ scene_break ] lulu : i did n't mean to kill logan . logan loved me more than i ever loved him , like you and scott baldwin . and if i had just been honest with him , but i was n't . i let him believe that i had more feelings for him than i really did . i wanted love to be safe and manageable . and i knew i had that with logan , but johnny -- [ lulu chuckles ] lulu : oh , nothing about me and johnny makes sense , not even the first time i got in the car with him . i knew i was safe . i knew the first time i met him , i 'd changed . my life had changed . and if i just accepted how i felt from the start -- but i did n't . and i led logan on . and i ca n't seem to get away from him . [ lulu sighs ] lulu : i see him sometimes . did that happen to you ? did you see rick webber when you knew there was no way he was there ? i 'm scared all the time . i 'm scared to sleep . i 'm scared to be awake . [ lulu chuckles ] lulu : in a way , fear is what started all of this . i was afraid of my feelings with johnny , so i hid behind logan and that 's why he 's dead . [ scene_break ] carly : of course sonny does n't see this as betrayal . in his mind , he never betrays anyone . it 's always the other way around . jason : well , if sonny wants back in the business , why did n't he just take it when i offered it to him ? carly : because that would be admitting a mistake . it means he was wrong for trying to retire early and forcing you to take over the business , not to mention he 'd lose kate . and as far as i 'm concerned , that would be the upside . jason : sonny says that he 's working with karpov to keep in him in line , to guarantee that karpov will not be a threat to me . carly : okay , do you believe that ? jason : i want to believe it . but if sonny really wants to protect me , why 'd he go behind my back ? carly : i do n't know , honey . he 's just trying to punish himself more for what happened to michael . giving up his life 's work was n't enough . he had to push you away . and now he 's trying to force you to work against him . he does n't realize how his actions are affecting everybody else here . jason : i do n't want to believe that sonny would purposely set out to undermine me . but if he does n't respect me as the head of this organization , what am i going to do ? he should 've come to me when he heard about karpov . carly : what are you going to do , jason ? jason : i do n't know . carly : jason , you 're the head of the organization . if sonny 's a threat , you have to treat him that way . [ scene_break ] maxie : mac , the boarder from hell has already broken the most basic rule of the rental agreement . he was having unbelievably loud sex upstairs during the day . i mean , it was so loud , even i was offended . oh , hey ! matt : commissioner scorpio , matt hunter . i 'll be more than happy to explain to you what actually happened at your convenience . but just so you know , i am enjoying living here and have every intention of staying . speak to you soon . maxie : it 's too late . mac 's really strict about anyone having sex in this house . matt : which apparently has n't stopped you from having sex pretty much everywhere else . maxie : who i sleep with and where is absolutely none of your business . matt : just like my personal life is none of yours . maxie : just admit you had a quickie with nadine . matt : i 'm not going to admit to anything . but i am going to find out what the hell nadine was doing here . [ scene_break ] nikolas : nadine , would you call me back when you get this , please ? i sincerely hope you 're not hiding under matt hunter 's bed or in jail for breaking into the police commissioner 's home . thank you . lucky : i have some bad news . nikolas : i -- i already heard . lulu 's been officially listed as johnny 's accomplice and baldwin came here to gloat about it . lucky : yeah , well , i spent all morning arguing with mac , the fbi , and anybody else that would listen , but of course i did n't have much to work with . i mean , lulu is the only one who could 've slipped him that gun , right ? nikolas : you should have heard baldwin go on about it . lucky : i can only imagine . i mean , i -- i do n't think lulu expected johnny to actually hold her hostage at that particular moment , but now she 's definitely in on it . nikolas : well , i 'm sure he 'll protect her the best he can . and i 'm somewhat sure that he wo n't hurt her . lucky : i hope you 're right because lulu is in some real trouble now . nikolas : i know . i 'm not sure how long she can last on the run . lucky : what 's that supposed to mean ? [ scene_break ] lulu : now i know why you always had a soft spot for scott baldwin , why you could never let go . it 's how the guilt works . and it 's even worse when you 're keeping a secret . i should tell somebody what i did . i should just confess . but then johnny will blame himself and -- i ca n't think about that . i ca n't . i need to focus on keeping the secret . lulu : you did n't even kill scott baldwin . you just broke his heart . lulu : logan was coming after me and i was begging him to stop , but he could not hear me that night . he was so far gone . he did n't even know what he was doing . and i had to protect myself . i had to defend myself , so i did . lulu : talking to you just helps me relax so i can see things more clearly . i wish you could just tell me what to do .

[ scene_break ] carly : if anyone else in the organization went behind your back to work for the enemy , what would you do ? jason : sonny is n't anyone else . he 's not my enemy . carly : but you know sonny . he is going to keep pushing you to punish you for helping me get michael and morgan away from him . jason : then let him push . carly : you do n't have that option , jason . sonny 's not like you . he does n't respect boundaries . hell , he does n't even see them half the time , jason . he does n't know when to stop . jason : what do you want me to do ? do you know what you 're saying right now ? if i treat this as a business and sonny is a threat and i treat him like anybody else , then he should be eliminated . [ scene_break ] scott : they should n't leave the window open like this . i 'm going to have to talk to the staff . or maybe you could use a little fresh air . laura , i 'm sorry i missed a few visits . i 've been in the bahamas with serena . if i knew what was going on , i would -- lulu 's in a lot of trouble . and i 'm not going after her because you chose luke over me , in spite of what everybody in this town seems to think . johnny zacchara murdered my son in cold blood . i was just getting to know him . he was a good kid . you know , he flipped for lulu , the same way that i flipped for you . but what did that get him ? a knife in the stomach and he was left on the side of the road like a piece of garbage while that coward zacchara just ran off . see , lulu is helping him by choice . and johnny is going to pay for what he did to my son . so lulu -- she may have to pay , too . [ scene_break ] johnny : lulu would n't go to the cops . lourdes : are you sure ? i mean , she seemed pretty upset the last time i saw her . anyway , girls turn against their guys all the time . johnny : not lulu . lourdes : but what if somebody recognizes her ? what if she gets a speeding ticket or into a car wreck ? johnny : are you trying to make me feel better ? lourdes : i 'm just saying , it 's dangerous for you to be here while she 's out there . let me take you out of the city . we could run away together . johnny : so on top of all the other crimes that i 'm wanted for , i 'll be transporting a minor over state lines . lourdes : well , we could say i 'm your little sister . you know , and if they 're looking for a blonde , they would n't think twice if they saw you with me . johnny : i appreciate that you 're trying to help , but let 's give lulu a chance to come home . i know she will . [ scene_break ] carly : no one wants you to kill sonny , but you ca n't let him tie your hands so karpov can come after you . jason : i wo n't . carly : jason , if sonny gets in the middle , do n't you push him out of the way and take a bullet for him . that 's not your job anymore .

[ scene_break ] sonny : as we all know , johnny has been a problem from day one . the only reason i did n't take care of him back then was because , you know , i married his sister . bernie : yeah , but if johnny dies , there could be complications . i mean , anthony zacchara has not mellowed in pentonville . sonny : yeah , he 's losing traction . the longer he stays in prison , the less power he has . but let 's assume that you 're right and he gathers up enough force to retaliate . okay . he 's gon na go after santos lopez . that 's the beauty of all this . tommy 's gone , johnny 's gone . and let 's say anthony decides to take out santos , that 's another thorn removed from my side . now , what if anthony dies in prison ? it 's a win - win situation no matter how you cut it . claire : i would n't bet on it . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] spinelli : friend or foe ? diane : i beg your pardon ? i received an urgent text message that my services were -- spinelli : yes , of course . the brusque lady of justice is most welcome . stone cold is in direst need of your services . diane : which means he 's either on the run and has become a fugitive from justice or -- spinelli : if only that were so . the jackal had the means to assure stone cold 's safe escape , but nobly , or foolishly , he refused . diane : so he 's been taken into custody ? spinelli : by the pernicious policeman ronnie dimestico , who could not wait to drag stone cold back to pentonville . so now you must find a way to subvert his sinister intent . diane : i think you want me to assure you that i can keep him out of jail . spinelli : yes , i do . diane : ca n't . spinelli : okay , with deepest respect , in light of the exorbitant retainer that stone cold pays you to look after his legal affairs , a sum of which the jackal is most familiar it is i who oversees stone cold 's financial affairs -- diane : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . hold up . you are in no position to comment on the size of my retainer . 'cause believe me , i earn it . and second , you seem to have wandered far from whatever your original point was . spinelli : perhaps i can make it clearer . jason pays you a fortune . the least you could do is try to keep him out of jail . diane : okay . all right . i can go to the pcpd . i can try and make ronnie dimestico 's life a living hell . i might even be able to delay jason 's return to pentonville by a few hours , maybe . but the bottom line is , jason 's going back because that 's what he agreed to do . spinelli : it 's not fair . stone cold just agreed to an amorphous class `` d `` felony just so he could protect michael in prison . diane : spinelli , that 's what a plea bargain is . it is a transaction between the justice system and the accused . jason got what he wanted , the ability , the chance to try to protect michael in prison . now jason 's got to hold up his end of the deal . and that means 2 to 5 years behind bars . spinelli : how is that justice ? michael should never have been behind bars in the first place . had dante the betrayer not vilely thrown the young sir under the proverbial bus , none of this would be happening . diane : i know ! i know . it stinks . do you think if there were a point of law that i could argue , if there were a precedent that i could cite , that i would n't ? i would do so happily . but jason made this deal with his eyes wide open , and now he 's got to pay the price . spinelli : you said you could maybe delay the transfer to pentonville . diane : a couple of hours maybe . spinelli : i guess any reprieve would be welcome . diane : are you sure ? you sure it would n't hurt more to drag it out ? spinelli : i know it may seem like a petty or shallow form of vengeance , but , i mean , if , as you say , you can make detective dimestico 's life miserable , make him wait a little longer or work a little harder to incarcerate my friend , that would be some small oasis of consolation in a wasteland of injustice . diane : well , now that you mention it , there is a judge who owes me a favor . [ scene_break ] ronnie : do n't get too comfortable . you 'll be processed before your ass can even warm that chair . you know , it 's a good thing that you did n't try to run , because had you , i would have hunted you down like a rabid dog . jason : are we done ? ronnie : are we done ? no , you 're done . all that 's left to do is file the paperwork . and then put a fork in you . because that 's how done you are . and then i 'm gon na put you in pentonville so you can rot . and , you know , it 's just a matter of time before sonny does something stupid and careless . and when he does , i 'll be waiting . and then maybe you guys can end up being roommates . man : got morgan 's transfer paperwork .

[ scene_break ] jordan : the fact that you were in custody just a few hours ago does not give you a free pass to loiter around my squad room . jason : i 'll tell you what , you tell me what i need to know , then i 'll be out of your hair , just like that . jordan : you know what we do ? valentin killed nikolas cassadine to get control of his estate . the only person standing in his way right now is spencer . so if you 'll excuse me , i have a search to conduct . if you 're here when i get back , you 'll spend the night in lockup . jason : [ sighs ] hey . lulu . from that message that spencer left , it sounded like he was giving some sort of performance . can you tell me where ?

[ scene_break ] alexis : nikolas was murdered by valentin cassadine ? sam : nikolas died trying to save ava 's life . whatever wrong turns or bad choices that he made , he died courageously . alexis : cassadines do n't die . they rise from the ashes , and they plot revenge . this is not how it seems . sam : okay , how much do you know about valentin ? alexis : next to nothing . luke said that even helena was afraid of him . sam : well , what do you remember from before ? alexis : i do n't . i left cassadine island when i was a teenager , and i mercifully never went back . however , i did hear that my father may have had some bastard son somewhere , and i did n't know his name . i did n't want to , because the less i knew about my family , the less i was connected to them . the only person i was connected to was nikolas . he was the good one , and whatever has happened to him recently , i ca n't speak to that , but i will tell you this is not done . sam : i 'm -- i 'm just really worried about spencer now . alexis : okay , i get that . so he needs love and support . sam : what about you ? how are you holding up after everything julian put you through ? [ scene_break ] ava : what the hell happened ? julian : [ sighs ] alexis was confused and upset . she was tricked by people with bigger agendas . ava : and you reacted by trying to kill her ? julian : i had a moment of weakness , all right ? all i could see was the woman i loved wearing a wire . ava : oh , no . julian : i still love her , ava . god help me , i do . ava : did you not just tell me she was wearing a wire on you ? how could you possibly love her after that ? ! julian : because i 'm the one who told all the lies . i 'm the one who broke our vows . i 'm the one who screwed everything up . now everything 's gon na be okay . ava : okay . how ? julian : i 've got a plan . i 'm gon na get it all back -- all of it -- alexis , my family , and my freedom . ava : and so you think that alexis will cover for you , that she 'll take the stand , that she 'll tell the court this was all some kind of mistake ? julian : well , it 's gon na take some time and effort , but alexis and i -- we 're gon na find our way back . ava : from pentonville ? do you even have a lawyer ? julian : [ sighs ] scotty baldwin . ava : scotty bal -- [ sighs ] i like scott . you know that . but not enough to bet your freedom on him . julian : it does n't matter , ava . no lawyer is gon na get me out of this . i 've got to escape , and you need to help me . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't want to go to war with you , jax , and i 'm pretty sure you do n't want to go to war with me . jax : that 's a poor choice of words . carly : you think ? jax : should i come in ? carly : you are not gon na use my mother 's birthday to have an excuse to come in here and start a fight with me , are you ? jax : of course not . let me just start again , okay ? we both want what 's best for josslyn . we want her happy and healthy , right ? carly : yes , but yesterday you implied that i do n't give a damn about my daughter 's well - being . jax : i know , and that was wrong of me , but i need you to see this from my perspective . our daughter called us in tears , because of some article that her mother published online . carly : i understand that josslyn feels like i violated her privacy , but at the time , i felt getting accurate medical information was way more important , jax . jax : look , we need to take josslyn 's concerns seriously . carly : even at the risk of her health ? jax : look , i 'm willing to , uh , continue talking about this , provided in the meantime , you do n't do anything , okay ? carly : i told you yesterday i had nina take the article down from the crimson website . jax : i know that 's what you told me . carly : okay , stop for a second . i heard every word you said yesterday , okay , and i listened to you , and you made some valid points , and i took it all to heart . you and i are on the same side , jax . neither i nor nina will do anything to hurt josslyn . you have my word . [ scene_break ] curtis : well , welcome to the human race , you know ? i think we 've all had at least one morning - after regret . nina : i just fell for it . i fell for all the nice things he said to me . curtis : look here , you deserve all the nice words in the world . you 're -- you 're a good woman , nina . i believe that . and believe me when i say there are good men out there , maybe even a couple , who are worthy of you . nina : thank you . why are you so nice to me ? curtis : you pay me . nina : oh . okay . curtis : oh , speaking of , are you ever gon na look at that ? nina : the josslyn jacks project . curtis : yeah . i may have just the answers you 're looking for . [ scene_break ] jax : whatever happens , we need to stay on the same side . i agree . carly : we are . josslyn 's welfare comes first . but that also means we have to handle our disagreements in private . josslyn ca n't go to you behind my back , or vice versa . she has to know that she ca n't play us against each other , jax . jax : i wonder where she learned that skill . curtis : uh , you 're the ruthless negotiator that 's in her gene pool , not me . i have to go check on my cake . jax : you baked ? curtis : yeah , i followed a recipe , with graciela 's help . jax : [ chuckles ] [ cell phone chimes ] jax : carly , hey . [ scene_break ] sam : everyone told me what happened . sonny saved your life after julian tried to kill you ? alexis : [ sighs ] surreal , right ? sam : yeah . how did this happen ? alexis : i mean , how am i wearing a wire against my own husband ? i - i - i do n't know how i got to the point where i would even have to . he -- he [ sighs ] he found it on me , and then he dragged me to the pier and then he -- if it were n't for sonny ... sam : i 'm so sorry . i wish that i was there for you . alexis : i did n't want you involved . sam : why ? why did n't you tell me about this ? were you protecting me , so i did n't know what julian was putting you through ? alexis : because julian is your father . sam : mom , he is a lying bastard who tried to blame you for a crime that he committed and then tried to kill you . as far as i 'm concerned , i do n't want to have anything to do with him . he has nothing to do with our family . alexis : it 's not that simple . sam : i - i - i do n't want to talk about him anymore . i just -- i just want to make sure you 're okay . will you please let me know if i can do anything for you ? alexis : i will . i just want your love and your support . that 's all , all right ? the rest i need to do for myself . and right now , i want you to -- to -- to go , and i want you to get back to the rest of your life . sam : but i can stay with you . alexis : i - i do n't want you to . i want you to go . i - i 'll be okay . sam : okay . but you 'll tell me if you need anything , all right ? alexis : i will . sam : okay . i love you . alexis : i love you ... more . go . sam : okay . mom ... fighting julian takes guts . do n't you dare stop fighting him . [ scene_break ] ava : escape ? julian : yeah . ava : you ca n't be serious . julian : we 've done it before . you remember pentonville ? ava : actually , that 's a chapter of my life that i 'd rather forget . julian : we made a few logistical mistakes . we 're not gon na make them again . ava : you need to stop talking like that . julian : okay , and what you need to do is gather up a few men . i 'll set the time , and you just make sure that you have a jet waiting for me . ava : julian , listen to me . i ca n't do what you 're asking me to do . i ca n't . julian : but you 're here . that must mean you want to help me . ava : something happened while i was away . nikolas cassadine -- he sacrificed his life for mine . i would n't even be here if it was n't for him . i 've been given another second chance to be the mother that my daughters need . julian : but i 'm your brother . ava : and i love you . i 'd do anything . i 'll do anything , just -- except for that . i ca n't risk going back to prison . i 'm so sorry . good luck . [ scene_break ] carly : my cake is turning out great . you know , i think i have a knack for baking . jax : you might want to check your messages . carly : you went through my phone ? jax : i was trying to be helpful . i was gon na give it to you . nina -- uh , nina reeves , i assume from crimson magazine -- she 's really eager to talk to you , `` and leave surferboy out of it . `` carly : okay , let me explain nina to you . jax : what , are you gon na explain with another lie ? i asked you to do something for the sake of our daughter . carly : i did exactly what you asked me to do , jax . jax : i 've listened to your lies for so many years , because i believed that you would protect josslyn at all costs . carly : that 's exactly what i 'm doing . that 's what we 're doing . jax : if you would just listen to me -- i told you what would happen if you pushed me . do n't be surprised when i push back . [ scene_break ] sonny : you ca n't -- you ca n't just leave right now . valentin : i have a gift for spencer . spencer : yeah , it 's something father arranged upon his , you know , death . valentin : nikolas asked that i give it to him privately . spencer : so , you see why we have to go . sonny : ca n't you leave after the performance ? spencer : well , the thing is , is that theo 's here now . sonny : well , theo can -- he -- he can -- he can wait . i 'm sure he appreciates what you and the cast have done in your rehearsals . you ca n't leave in the middle of the show . spencer : yes , but this is of utmost importance . sonny : well , this is the show . i came here to see you . you tell me -- look me in the eyes , and you tell me you would n't feel a little disappointed if your understudy stole all the glory . spencer : i 'll see you after the show . a horse , a horse , my kingdom for a horse ! sonny : that kid is a pistol . valentin : yeah . well , if you 'll excuse me , i 'm gon na grab my seat . sonny : i hope you 're as proud of your nephew as i am . valentin : oh , spencer and i are not really ... sonny : spencer ? i know a cassadine when i see one . [ scene_break ] curtis : so here 's a list of the ten most likely candidates for josslyn 's donor , um , from the available pool . now , i did n't do a background check entirely , but they meet the basic criteria . same age , same timeline , compatible blood types , same socioeconomic background . that 's it . nina : you would n't be wasting my time unless you found something significant , right ? curtis : no , you 're good , nina reeves . nina : what is it ? curtis : that one right there . that would be josslyn 's donor . [ scene_break ] carly : okay , let 's not get ahead of ourselves . ever since that first trip to family court , that hideous trip , we 've always been able to work things out , jax . jax : until now . you 've completely ignored josslyn 's wishes and mine . carly : our daughter does n't know what 's best for her , and you should ! what if that kidney fails ? would you be so mad at me for doing the right thing then ? jax : you 're not even listening anymore , are you ? you 're just gon na do whatever you want , and to hell with everyone else , right ? carly : i 'm doing what 's best for our daughter , and josslyn will thank me one day . jax : i would n't be so sure about that . and i 'm pretty sure a judge is not gon na side with you this time , either . carly : are you seriously threatening to take me back to family court ? jax : josslyn 's old enough to speak for herself now . we both know what she 'll say if she finds out what you 've been up to . carly : jax , come on . do n't do this . jax : tell bobbie `` happy birthday . `` i 'll see you in court . carly : jax ! ava : back to court , eh ? well , i hope for your sake , sonny has something to blackmail your ex with . [ scene_break ] valentin : that 's very observant . sonny : valentin cassadine . you tried to kill my son and his wife , among others . valentin : dante and lulu . yeah , they were minor annoyances . [ cheering in distance ] valentin : i sense you 're gon na be a bigger problem . sonny : you do n't want to make me your enemy . valentin : that 's a coincidence 'cause people say the same thing about me . i have a temper . and it burns slowly . but it burns hot .

[ chuckles ] sonny : i guess i 'll take him to the cops . jordan : that wo n't be necessary . we 'll take it from here . can you cuff him ? so , when i called lulu to find out where spencer was going to camp , she said that she already spoke to you . jason : yeah , that 's right . jordan : it did n't occur to you to notify the department that you have reason to believe that valentin cassadine was here ? jason : no , it did n't . jordan : i guess that law - abiding lifestyle of yours only goes so far , huh ? officer : commissioner . jordan : thank you . valentin cassadine , aka theo hart , you 're under arrest . valentin : for what ? ! i 'm the victim here . this man attacked me . jordan : i believe he was disarming you before you could harm another . so , first charge is gon na be possession of illegal firearms . second -- i 'm sure that the greek authorities are going to have a laundry list of charges ready for you . you have the right to remain silent . if you give up that right to remain silent , anything you say can and will be held against you in the court of law . [ scene_break ] carly : what the hell are you doing here ? ava : [ chuckling ] oh , carly . well , i 'd ask you how you 're doing , but it seems pretty clear that life here at casa corinthos ai n't so grand . carly : what do you want ? ava : one does have to appreciate the symmetry , though . you and sonny -- you forced me to relinquish custody of my daughter . and now josslyn 's father is preparing to force you to relinquish custody of yours . karma . such a little bitch . carly : i 'm really busy here . get to the point . ava : well , if you 'll bring avery down , we 'll be off . carly : [ laughs ] yeah , that 's not how our arrangement works . see , we need a full 24-hour notification before you can pick up avery . ava : damn it , carly , i just want to hold my daughter . i have n't seen her in weeks . maybe you do n't know what that feels like , but it seems if you 're not careful , you soon will . carly : you can go upstairs . avery 's in her crib . [ scene_break ] jax : what happened to the old place ? did you get sick of lakefront living and those amazing views ? alexis : it burned down . jax : really ? because of sonny ? alexis : you 'd think . no . not this time . he was innocent . jax : anyone hurt ? alexis : mnh - mnh . how long do you get to stay ? jax : it was supposed to be just a short trip -- fly in and see josslyn and carly and fly out . alexis : josslyn and carly ? jax : yeah , carly and i are having some issues right now . alexis : what kind ? jax : the kind that might need some legal intervention . alexis : are you gon na ask me to represent you ? jax : well , you 're the best there is . it 's a complicated case involving josslyn 's custody , but much more -- i might be in a little bit of trouble here . alexis : i 'm gon na have to stop you right now , because i - i ca n't represent you , jax .

jax goes to talk to carly about the situation involving josslyn 's kidney and unexpectedly delivers a threat to her of fighting her for custody of their daughter , knowing she 's been going behind josslyn 's back and not respected her wishes to call off the search for her kidney donor . as soon as he leaves , ava appears , overhearing the conversation and reminds carly that she may be in a very similarly vulnerable position regarding custody of her daughter . she further reminds carly that she almost died while held hostage in greece and merely wants to see avery , to which carly first argues but later realizes that one thing they have in common . she overhears ava , on the baby monitor , sounding emotionally invested in wanting to fight so nobody keeps her away from her daughter again . she also realizes ava knows she may be facing a similar custody battle and could potentially use that against her . at that point , she contacts nina and curtis and asks them to call off the search for josslyn 's kidney . julian is desperate to fight what has happened to him , realizing he 's going to prison and asks ava to help him escape , urging her to know it 's pointless to expect a lawyer to help him or to rely on any legal means . in response to that , she informs her brother she can not help him break the law and does not want to risk being taken away from her daughter and so he 's on his own with that . sam returns to her mom and adamantly informs her that she intends to protect her from her father and will never trust or want any relationship with julian again after what he 's done to alexis . she goes to talk to her father in the interrogation room , informing him of that . he reminds her she and danny once relied upon him for bone marrow in order to save her son 's life , but she informs him she now knows she has jason for that and no longer needs julian and so he has no more power over her . when sam goes to leave , she suddenly passes out and collapses and julian calls for someone to help . valentin goes to the summer camp and introduces himself to spencer as uncle theo who will take him to his dad . sonny shows up just in time , but valentin threatens him with a gun . jason arrives just in time to save sonny and spencer followed by jordan and her officers who take valentin away , leaving sonny to figure out how to tell spencer that his dad is dead . valentin is clearly not ready to give up and decides to call nina with his one allowed phone call . jax goes to see alexis and informs her he 'd like her to represent him in his custody battle with carly . yet she informs him that due to the big mess she 's just gotten herself into , she may never be able to practice law again . at that point , he lovingly assures and encourages her not to give up and to lean on the many friends she has .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i went to stefan for help . all my life , he 's been my friend . he 's been my ally . he paid for my law school . and at best , i would say that stefan is calculating , and at worst , i would say that he 's a very bad man that does very bad things . but , really , i mean , what was i supposed to do ? because the justice system failed me , which is ironic in that i 've spent my life justifying and defending it . and then when i needed it to protect me , it protected the perpetrator instead . so where is the justice in taking away my daughter when all i did was try to defend her ? and then this judge , who 's being paid off by the quartermaines , puts her in a house filled with this lunatics , in the custody of a blatant liar and a chronic alcoholic , so i turned to stefan . i hate his methods , but in this case i truly believe the ends justifies the means . cameron : what methods are you talking about , alexis ? alexis : he 's going to ruin ned . he 's going to make him look like an unfit parent . cameron : time - out . i do n't want to hear any more of this . you are nuts . alexis : great . thank you . that 's your professional opinion ? cameron : absolutely . i 'm appalled at the extent of your rationalization , alexis . you 're agreeing to -- no , actively participating in the destruction of a man 's life . what has ned done to you to deserve that ? alexis : he stole my daughter . cameron : but ned is kristina 's legal father . that means for all intents and purposes , he 's a real father . he loves her , he wants to take care of her . why should n't he ? alexis : he 's trying to take her away from me . cameron : alexis , you lost kristina as a result of your own actions . now , granted , there were extenuating circumstances , but nothing that justifies giving your brother carte blanche to ruin a man 's life . alexis : then fix me , cameron ! that 's why i 'm here ! that 's why i came . cameron : you came here for absolution , alexis . you 're about to do something reprehensible . you claim that you have no other choice , but you know that that 's a lie . you 're hoping that if you come here and wallow in remorse that it will somehow wipe the slate clean . you want to go on telling yourself that you 're a good person , that it 's circumstances that forced you to assassinate a man 's character . you came here for validation , alexis , but you 're not going to get it from me . you 're not confused . you know exactly what you 're doing . and you know it 's wrong , which means you have a choice to make . [ scene_break ] faith : do you know who lorenzo alcazar is ? dillon : yeah , we 've met . faith : mm - hmm . then i do n't need to explain to you how much trouble you are in . so give me the money now . dillon : listen , i 've got somebody helping me , ok , and i do n't want them to get hurt or in any trouble . faith : that is why you need to give me the money , see , so i can give it back to alcazar , and we all wo n't end up in tiny little pieces in the lake . what 's your name ? i need to have something to call you . dillon : dillon . faith : you 're in over your head , dillon . now , the good news is that i am feeling inclined to help you . now , i have a lovely bottle of wine here that i would like to share with you while we discuss how you are going to handle this . you do drink wine , do n't you ? dillon : um -- i 'm not a -- i 'm not a wine person , per se . i do n't -- i do n't really drink this early in the day . i do n't drink this early -- faith : you want me to believe that you are boy scout now ? is that it ? well , that 's convenient , see , because that means you 're really , really good at rubbing things together to make a spark .

[ scene_break ] carly : so what are you going to do now ? lorenzo : i 'll have to treat you like ric did -- lock you in a room , chain you to a wall . is that what you want ? carly : of course not . lorenzo : i like you , mrs. corinthos , but not enough to let you take advantage of me . if you somehow managed to lead sonny here , you 're going to be bringing him to his death . now , i do n't want to kill sonny . i want to make him pay . but if you put me in a position where i have to defend myself , you 're going to end up a widow . [ scene_break ] alexis : what are you doing ? cameron : the session 's over . alexis : i 'm nuts . are n't you going to counsel me ? cameron : counsel implies advice , alexis -- not that you 've ever taken mine before , but here it is . cease and desist before you lose whatever shred of integrity and self - respect you have left . if that 's not an option , leave me out of whatever comes next . i 've helped you cover up a murder , lie under oath , and masquerade as a butler , but i refuse to be a cheerleader while you and your reptilian brother deconstruct a man 's life . alexis : fine . stefan : alexis ? i found exactly what we need to destroy ned ashton 's credibility . [ scene_break ] dillon : what exactly are you doing ? faith : this someone who is helping you -- is she your girlfriend ? dillon : not exactly . it 's complicated . yes . yes , she is . so all this with the touching is really -- faith : you need someone who knows the ropes , dillon . a mentor , someone with experience . dillon : in what exactly ? faith : you 're about to find out . [ knock on door ] faith : do n't move a thing . what is it ? georgie : i -- i ca n't exactly explain , but i think i 've got what you want . dillon ? faith : ahem . looks like i have what you want , too .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i made ric look like the psycho that he is when i testified at sam 's hearing . but i 'll tell you what . he 's going to be looking to come back at me , you know ? carly : listen , sonny , the court accepted sam 's confession . she 's been exonerated . sonny : yeah , but , you know , the confession that set sam free is a lie . carly : well , obviously , ric ca n't prove it . otherwise , he would have . sonny : yeah , but you know what ? he 's not going to rest until he can . max : hey , this guy was across the hall knocking on jason 's door . danny : where 's sam ? i have to see my sister . [ scene_break ] ric : ok , i want surveillance in place at 10 : 00 on pier 52 . right . sam : ric , i confess . i set fire to my mother 's place , and i fully intended to kill her . jason : sam , stop . do n't say another word . ric : well , i think she said more than enough . it seems your girlfriend -- or whatever she is -- just confessed to premeditated murder . [ scene_break ] emily : i 'll do anything i can to help , but i have to be honest . you did n't do yourself any favors by overpowering those orderlies and escaping from the police station . nikolas : i was n't about to let helena have me committed to a mental institution . emily : ok , this is about your grandmother wanting control of the cassadine estate . she has proven time and again that she will stop at nothing to get what she wants , and unfortunately , you played right into her hands . nikolas , if you had agreed to a psychiatric evaluation , then it would have been clear that there 's nothing wrong with you , and helena would have been thwarted . but by fighting your way out , you basically made her point . emily : i want you to think . helena is lethal . you need to get control of your anger and come up with a strategy or she 's going to destroy you . [ scene_break ] courtney : admit it , jax . i mean , come on , the real issue is n't my safety , it 's jason . jax : you really think the entire world revolves around this man , do n't you ? courtney : all right , look . we have come a long way . far enough that i 'd hope we could be honest with each other . especially when the truth is so clear . look , if you 're concerned that i am still in love with jason and that i 'm drifting back to him , just say so . jax : i 'll tell you what concerns me . that you 're still loyal to this man . that 's not my focus at the moment . violence is about to break out between sonny and some other mob faction . yeah , it could be faith or lorenzo -- i do n't know . but i do n't want you in the line of fire . ok ? you 're sonny 's sister and jason 's ex . you make for a really good target . if i can just take you to the other side of the world , and , you know , at least -- we 'll have plenty of time to discuss your appalling taste in men . courtney : thanks so much for the offer , jax , but i 'm not going anywhere .

[ scene_break ] courtney : you turned out to be a really good friend . and thanks to you , after this bet is over , my foundation will be $ 10 million richer . jax : maybe . courtney : ok , jax , look , i like you , so do n't take this the wrong way . i do n't want or need your protection . jax : well , then i should look after my own best interests , but you might not agree . courtney : meaning ? jax : i like you , too . i enjoy spending time with you . that stubborn streak is somewhat endearing at times , which means i 'm not ready to lose you from my life . but i wo n't facilitate you placing yourself in danger by adhering to some draconian code of silence , which i certainly never signed up for . so i 'm going to do what i should have done when the shooting started . i 'm going to take this to the police .

[ scene_break ] monica : look , scott , as we explained the last time you barged in here , we have no idea where lulu and johnny are hiding . scott : well , i think that she does . that 's why she 's so anxious to get a hold of her drunken husband . tracy : i miss the man i married . are you going to arrest me for that ? scott : well , the man that you married , tracy , is a freeloader , and so is his daughter . why ? why the loyalty ? he is taking advantage of you . all you people . edward : now , i 'm no fan of luke 's alice : but i am . edward : well -- but -- but lulu is a very lovely young girl . course , she does have a propensity for making bad choices when it comes to the opposite sex , but -- scott : oh , come on , edward . open up your eyes . she is conning you . all right ? she -- she might even be capitalizing on your grief for emily . monica : oh , no . no , scott . wait . you do not bring my daughter into this . scott : lulu lied to logan . she played johnny and logan against each other . and then johnny killed my son . monica : scott , listen to me . nobody knows better than me what it is like to lose a child . i know what grief is about . i know that grief can turn into bitterness if there are regrets , if there are missed opportunities , what ifs . but i 'm telling you that lashing out like this is not going to make it any easier . believe me . anthony : hello . how you doing ? scott : well , well , well . look what just got wheeled in . so you 're all in cahoots . what , are you trying to get lulu and johnny out of the country ? anthony : for me , you could n't be more wrong . regretfully , i have no idea where my son is . scott : yeah , well , then what other possible reason would you be doing here ? anthony : i came to ask tracy out on a date . scott : well , now , i kind of find that hard to believe . tracy : but i do n't care what you believe . and not that i owe you an explanation . i do n't feel any obligation to be any more faithful to my husband than -- he is to me . scott : well , no , tracy -- as much as i know you hate your husband 's womanizing , would n't it really be trading one old fool for just another old fool ? anthony : there 's no need to be insulting . scott : yeah , there is , because this is all just a smoke screen . nothing has changed . your son is a fugitive and lulu is an accomplice . tracy : look , we get that that 's what you think . is there a larger issue ? scott : yeah , there is . lulu and johnny will get caught because we always catch them . and if they resist arrest , somebody might get shot . so if you have any contact with them , i suggest you tell them to turn themselves in . tracy : would you wheel him out please ? anthony : are you sure you do n't want to set up that date ? tracy : i would rather die a long , slow , painful death . anthony : that could be arranged . tracy : are you threatening me ? anthony : i was just making a little joke . are you always so touchy ? tracy : for the second time , why is this man in my house ? anthony : i wanted to make sure we all understand each other . lulu is the reason my son is a fugitive . if any harm comes to him because of her , i 'm going to tear this town apart brick by brick .

[ scene_break ] claudia : you know , i could ask you the very same thing about michael 's shooting . but then i already know the answer . why should you feel bad ? the bullet in that little boy 's brain got you everything you wanted . kate : excuse me ? claudia : oh , it did . it was the final break between sonny and carly . and sonny 's so messed up in the head now -- well , he 's completely dependent on you . it 's a great way to guilt him out of the mob . kate : wow , you really are evil . to imply that i would actually skew the horrible tragedy that happened to his son for my own advantage ? claudia : but that 's what you 've done . i mean , it 's what you do every day , kate . it 's what you do every single day . and by the way , you 're living in a fool 's paradise . there 's no way this fantasy can hold sonny . he 's still the same man he 's always been . he 's hooked on power , he 's dangerous . he 's borderline psycho , kate , and he 's drawn to his industry because he 's really good at running it . it 's where he feels confident , it 's where he feels comfortable . and i 'll tell you something , he is never going to be happy hiding from life behind you or some ridiculous career as a coffee merchant . i do n't have to chase after sonny or try to lure him back to the mob . because he 'll come back , all on his very own . because it 's who he is . kate : mm , yeah , see , you 're really good at this smoke and mirrors thing . but my particular strength is focus . so i have n't been distracted by you or what i came here for . and it 's simple , okay , so you can probably understand it . sonny loves me and we 're getting married . because ultimately that is the life he chose for himself , all right ? good . claudia : mm . kate : good , so there 's no room for you and your trashy world . i want you to stay the hell away from sonny . enjoy your ice tea . claudia : hey , can i get a vodka rocks , please ? ric : hello . claudia : you owe me big time . [ scene_break ] maxie : i do n't really get why you do n't want my help . unless it 's because we slept together . are you having a delayed reaction ? i mean , now we ca n't be friends because we had sex ? spinelli : no , no -- look , the jackal would never -- would never abandon maximista . it 's just that he 's simply concerned . there is reason for -- maxie : spit it out , spinelli . spinelli : stone cold will be most displeased that i 've taken you into my confidence about the emergence of the russian mob boss . maxie : i think that implies jason does n't think i 'm trustworthy , and i 'm offended . spinelli : no , i 'm sorry , that was not the jackal 's intention . maxie : you just have to tell jason that i 'm in the loop . i mean , i 'm helping you research this guy , and if he does n't like it , too flippin ' bad . spinelli : not a phrase to be used when addressing stone cold , please ? kate : spinelli , out -- maxie and i have work to do and i need her undivided attention . spinelli : yes , the jackal obeys . kate : my wedding has to go off without the smallest hitch or heads will roll . [ scene_break ] jason : carly , i do n't want you waving any red flags at sonny . there 's enough anger between you guys , and you know what ? you promised me that you would not confront sonny about karpov , and i 'm going to hold you to that . carly : i wo n't , i do n't want to put any more pressure on you , okay ? but i wo n't pretend that i 'm not furious with sonny . because i ca n't believe he 's doing this to you . jason : everything 's going to work out . carly : who 's taking care of you ? jason : come on , i do n't need anyone to take care of me . carly : yes , you do . jason : look , everything 's fine . anthony 's focused on finding johnny , karpov 's still finding his way . there 's nothing to worry about right now . carly : you 're a terrible liar , which is one more reason i have to lie for you . jason : carly . carly : marty , hey , it 's me . could you do me a favor and check and see if there 's an andrei karpov staying with us ? great , yeah . send him a bottle of our best vodka with my compliments and ask him to meet me for a drink . thank you .

[ scene_break ] jason : hey . spinelli : whaaa ! jason : you got anything ? spinelli : aaahh , i 'm exploring a new , um , avenue of information gathering by way of , uh , karpov 's personal life . i may be able to utilize the purchase records of a girlfriend to , um -- as a starting point for information . jason : okay , i do n't know what the hell you just said , but if it works , just do it , okay ? spinelli : okay , i 'll start the search . hey , while we 're waiting , um , it might be a good time for the grasshopper and his master to have a -- jason : what is , what is -- stop right now . what is wrong with you , why are you twitching ? spinelli : you know , we are indeed a good team . and i mean , yes , her thought patterns are n't necessarily linear and her ideas are often unconventional but her insights are useful , even inspiring at times -- jason : hey , hey -- what are you talking about ? spinelli : despite stone cold 's instructions pertaining to anything privileged vis - à - vis anything related to mob activities or karpov in particular -- jason : this is about maxie . what did you tell her ? spinelli : not much . jason : spill it . spinelli : i may have alluded to the threat that karpov poses . [ scene_break ] kate : so theoretically i have signed off on both dresses . maxie : theoretically . kate : yes , i realized last night that there is a problem with the fabric federico wants to use . and when i told him about it , i got back artist attitude . now you need to call him and tell him that he can either make the changes or he can sell the dress to someone else and i 'll get another designer . you 're hesitating , maxie . did you not understand the instructions ? maxie : do you maybe want to count to ten or something ? kate : excuse me ? maxie : no offense , but you 're just about to blow up on federico for no reason . and you are the one who taught me to disregard the first conversation you have with talent about their work . because their first reaction will be defensive . i mean , he probably perceived what you were saying as criticism . and he needs just a little bit of time to let it settle in before he can truly understand your point . kate : well , i like that you listen when i try to teach you . maxie : are you kidding , i 'm sponge , your water . anyway , federico 's an ongoing important relationship for you . i just do n't think now 's the time to throw him an ultimatum . kate : thank you , maxie , you are right . in fact , i 'm going to do you one better , i 'm not going to deal with any of this right now . because clearly i 'm obsessing over dresses and wedding plans because they 're dependable even when my groom is not . sonny : why would you think i 'm not dependable ? [ scene_break ] claudia : you know , see , uh -- jason confronted sonny about karpov . did n't say who told him . ric : i ca n't imagine why jason would want to protect me . claudia : he was n't protecting you , he was protecting sonny . he does n't want things to get too confrontational . the point being , sonny wants to know who pulled jason 's coat . i protected you , and i want you to consider it a sign of my goodwill . ric : oh , i do . see , i always knew we 'd be a good team . so in light of that , maybe we can start being more effective , huh ?

[ scene_break ] jason : i ca n't trust you if you 're going to blab everything i have you do to maxie . did you forget her dad 's a police commissioner ? spinelli : maximista would never betray my confidence . jason : she would n't have to do it on purpose , something could slip out . the cops would be crawling all over us . even more important , if the wrong people realize that maxie knows too much -- she 's at risk , spinelli . spinelli : i know , the jackal knows that all stone cold says is true . and i 've already resolved to distance myself from fair maximista , but stone cold , it is so hard . her flame , it draws this moth -- [ computer beeps ] spinelli : ooh , results . jason : what is it ? spinelli : information of a most dire nature . uh , two of karpov 's female acquaintances have met violent ends . most notably one who was -- well , having sex with him on a tenth floor balcony that plunged to her death . karpov called it a tragic accident . [ scene_break ] carly : you 're a little behind on your town gossip . i have n't been mrs. corinthos in over a year . i 'm happily married to someone else . karpov : oh , so happily . otherwise , why are we here enjoying cocktails and each other 's company , hmm ? carly : i co - own this hotel . karpov : i doubt you give every guest such personal attention . carly : that 's true , i do find you intriguing . karpov : the feeling is mutual . i 'd like to know you better . but this is your place of business . take a drive with me , mm - hmm ? so we can be alone .

[ scene_break ] diane : your ill - advised confession as to being approximate cause of claudia 's accident has had the very unfortunate side effect of validating andrea floyd 's assertion that you were a hysterical wreck when you left the mayor 's house . which , of course , lends credence to those hysterical -- there 's that word again -- emails that you sent from you -- alexis : yes , we know the domino effect . everyone has read those emails . i 'm obsessed with mayor floyd . i stalked his mistress , and then i murdered her ... of course , on the one night where i do n't have an alibi . diane : any prosecutor worthy of that name is going to bring up in court the fact that one of your very best friends owns the metro court . which , of course , gives you access to a key card , also known as opportunity . this is an unmitigated disaster , alexis . you could very well be charged with murder unless you take that first very damning domino off the table and recant your false confession about claudia 's accident . alexis : why is this so hard for you to understand , diane ? i do n't know . maybe it 's because you do n't have children , but i do . and if the authorities find out that one of mine has caused that accident , her whole life will be derailed . and as her mother , i am not gon na let that happen .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you need to really pay attention , because this is what johnny does best . he does something , gets caught , and he spins a sob story , and everybody 's coming after him , especially big , bad sonny . just like what sonny did to claudia . you think i killed lopez ? claire : i do n't know . sonny : you think i 'd be stupid enough to do something like that ? claire : stupid , no . cunning enough ? distinct possibility . sonny : i do n't know whether to be flattered or insulted . claire : you are perfectly capable of framing johnny for a crime you committed . sonny : no more capable of johnny actually doing it . claire : well , johnny 's been taunting you for months , and he has n't bothered to be discreet about it . he 's costing you money . he brought me photographic evidence of you engaging in illegal contraband . with johnny out of the picture , your life 's a whole lot easier . sonny : well , i do n't deny that , but i did n't kill tommy lopez , and i did n't frame johnny . johnny : i only told you what happened to go on the record . i do n't exactly expect you to believe me . so what you 're going to do is you 're going to wrack your brain to try and find any excuse in the world for this not to check out , not to be true . let sonny make jackasses out of you and the rest of the pcpd ; make sure he sees how far you 're going to protect him . dante : yeah . you know , whether your account of tomas lopez 's murder is true or not , does n't matter to me . it 's not my job to sort it out . i 'm just here to take you in . johnny : shame this ended so abruptly . carly : ahh , a rain check ? johnny : count on it .

[ scene_break ] starr : what is going on with you ? trey : what do you mean ? starr : there 's no insults , no tirade about how i 'm not allowed to touch your food . you locked your keys in the apartment . this is not the roommate that i know and tolerate . trey : i 've had a lot on my mind . i pulled the plug on `` mob princess . `` starr : you what ? ! did you lose funding ? trey : no . nothing like that . i just -- i - i decided if i was gon na have a relationship with kristina , i had to give up the show . starr : what kind of relationship ? trey : we 're seeing each other . starr : since when ? [ scene_break ] kristina : why would he go back to new haven ? he graduated . alexis : yeah , i know . i - i just thought maybe he had a family or a home somewhere . where 's he from , anyway ? kristina : it does n't matter . i mean , he 's staying here with me . that 's why he canceled the show . he thought it was making problems for my family , so he made this huge sacrifice . alexis : i see . kristina : `` i see `` ? okay , you only say that when you 're trying to think of something to say . it 's a courtroom trick of yours when you 're trying to come up with a counterargument or more questions . alexis : all right . all right . i 'll be honest with you . i think that he is a very ambitious young man . kristina : and that 's a bad thing ? alexis : i just find it difficult to believe that he would just cancel the show . kristina : for me ? that 's what you 're trying to say , because i 'm not worth it . alexis : no , that is not what i 'm trying to say , honey . i 'm saying that he went to a lot of time and trouble to make this television show , and that he would just give it up on a whim seems kind of ... kristina : you just could not wait to tell me that i 'm too stupid to believe in trey . i ca n't believe i ever thought for a second you 'd be happy for me . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : ewen pulled me out of the water the night lisa niles was killed , and he did n't tell me about it until months later . jason : wait , wait . y - you almost drowned and he left you there on the beach ? elizabeth : he got me breathing and said i was gon na be okay . jason : if you found somebody in the water , would n't you call for help or take somebody inside or at least put a blanket on them ? elizabeth : he had a patient . he said he had a patient . jason : oh , okay . what about an anonymous 911 call ? elizabeth : okay , i know . but this does n't matter , because spinelli showed up and then he took me to the hospital and everything was fine . jason : no , it does matter . why keep it a secret ? unless dr. keenan did n't want you to know he was out at wyndemere . elizabeth : well , he told me that his mother said it was bad manners to take credit for a good deed . jason : bad m -- bad manners ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] i know . it sounds stupid . but i 've gotten to know ewen , and he really is quite humble . i - i honestly do n't think he would want to take credit , and he surely would n't want me to feel obligated . jason : look , that -- that could all be true , but there 's still something missing . elizabeth : i do n't know . i 'm not so sure anymore . i was cautious at first . jason : are you sure you trust dr. keenan ? [ scene_break ] jerry : you know , the lovely miss webber would be troubled , to say the least , by our acquaintance . i mean , she has less than fond memories of me . ewen : well , she 's -- she 's never gon na find out . jerry : in my own defense , i was kinder to her than most of the hostages . i mean , i even offered to release her at one point , but , you know , it did n't work out . one thing led to another , and elizabeth and her unborn child were caught in the explosion . ewen : what -- what explosion ? jerry : oh , i can assure you , it was nothing like dr. scorpio 's lab . the metro court explosion was much larger , although not nearly as hot . no gas lines were involved . it 's a miracle anyone survived . ms. webber had the advantage of being saved by mr. morgan . ewen : is there -- is there a point to this lecture ? jerry : no , no . i 'm just simply reminiscing . does n't it strike you , though , that things seem to come back to jason morgan for ms. webber ? does n't it trouble you that your romantic rival is a professional killer ? ewen : no . i told you . i 'm not -- i 'm not about to discuss elizabeth . jerry : i thought i made it clear -- i dictate the terms of our association . ewen : oh , as far as i 'm concerned , our association is -- is over . i 've done everything you 've asked of me , and now -- jerry : yes , yes , you 're right . you 're right . you 've been very helpful about robin scorpio . ewen : you got what you wanted . we 're done . jerry : no . we 're not done . we 've just begun . you see , i have big plans for port charles , and i require your assistance . [ scene_break ] dante : so , no more `` mob princess `` ? that -- that was your shot at fame . you know that . sonny : i 'm heartbroken . dante : [ chuckles ] how 's kristina taking the news ? sonny : well , you know , trey , this producer guy , he says he tanked the show for her sake . dante : what , you think there 's something else ? sonny : you have n't met trey , have you ? dante : no . sonny : he 's a cheap hustler . slick promises with no follow - through . i 'll tell you why he quit the show . he 's got an agenda . [ scene_break ] kristina : of course you think it 's impossible for trey just to do something nice . he has to have an agenda . alexis : sweetie , he does have an agenda . he demonstrated that in this house and at the courthouse . kristina : he realized he had to choose the show or me , and he chose me . alexis : while i 'm sure that 's very flattering , i think it 's impractical that he 'd just abandon the project unless there was some way for him to recoup his loss . kristina : just say what you think , mom -- trey has to have an agenda 'cause he could n't possibly want me for myself . [ scene_break ] sam : your poor niece . this picture makes it look like john 's cheating on her . todd : john is cheating on her . sam : no . it was just a kiss . and now natalie 's life is turned upside down , and for what ? so you can have one over on john ? shame on you . todd : at the time of that grope , john was not a free man . he was living with my niece and their child . i - i do n't blame you , all right ? clearly , you were in a very vulnerable state and lieutenant mcbain took advantage of you . sam : who took this picture ? todd : as a journalist , i - i do n't think it 's a good idea for me to reveal my -- my sources . you should just be lucky i did n't put it on the front page . mcbain : why would you ? natalie does n't read the port charles sun . todd : well , because i was concerned about sam and not just because she has a professional hit man for a husband . because i was worried about her . she just lost her child . has n't she been through enough ? and how do you pay me back ? you spy on me , you break into my safe . it just goes to show you -- no good deed goes unpunished . sam : nothing good can come out of this . todd : you got that right . except for this . how does it feel , lieutenant mcbain ? does it feel good ? how does it feel to have your halo tarnished ? mcbain : [ scoffs ] so many ways you could have come after me , manning . did you have to do something so hateful to natalie ? [ scene_break ] jason : has there been anything else you found out about dr. keenan after the fact ? elizabeth : the night i checked myself into shadybrook , i thought he was a fellow patient and not the doctor who was supposed to be treating me . jason : was n't it important you to know that ? elizabeth : dr. keenan is a very unorthodox psychiatrist . he wanted me to relate to him as a person and not have to edit myself . it does n't matter anyway , because i checked myself out of there before he had a chance to treat me . jason : yeah , it just seems kind of strange . elizabeth : my point is , he 's been nothing but kind and decent , and if there 's been any hesitation on getting involved with him , it 's been my own history . aiden : [ squeals ] elizabeth : hey , look who 's waking up . hi , buddy . are you hungry ? [ scene_break ] jerry : you know , i was always mystified when jax decided to settle here . but , you see , my little brother always leads with his heart . he was always moving here for one woman or another . and then i came to realize that this city has its charms . ewen : oh , you -- you stay as long as you like , jerry . just -- just leave me out of it . jerry : you know , port charles is endlessly amusing , with its risks and hazards , if you 're into that sort of thing , which leads me to , once again , talk about your mr. morgan . ewen : he 's not my mr. -- mr . nothing . jerry : oh , forgive me . forgive me . yes . elizabeth 's mr. morgan . ewen : [ scoffs ] you 're implying that there 's a -- there 's a relationship ... jerry : you see , i 've tried and failed to kill jason morgan several times , and i 'm very confident that one of these days i 'll get it right . in the meantime , his presence here raises the stakes , and he 's not the only one . his lord and master , sonny corinthos ; and luke spencer ; and other players , including anna devane , who has a formidable reputation in espionage circles . ewen : how does -- how does robin 's mother have -- have anything to do with this ? jerry : well , suffice it to say that there are some few challenges that lay ahead , that the payoff promises to be very worth it . ewen : what are you dragging me into , jerry ? jerry : you 'll see . [ scene_break ] starr : why would you cancel `` mob princess `` if it brought you and kristina together ? trey : i do n't know . look , maybe i just do n't have the stomach for reality tv . you -- you have to manipulate the footage to hook the audience . you have to create a villain , which , in this case , was supposed to be her father . starr : right . i thought kristina did n't care about that . trey : she may try to deny it , but she would have been hurt to see her father portrayed that way . so it 's better for her if we just stop production . starr : a kinder , gentler trey ? trey : that 's me . starr : come on ! i watched you work your butt off to create that show , and now you 're just giving it up ? trey : i 'm fine with it . starr : no , you 're not . something else is ticking you off , because you , my friend , are desperately unhappy . trey : and you care ? starr : yeah . yeah , actually , i do . so , tell me , what is going on ? trey : it 's my father . [ whimpers ] starr : your father ? what does he have to do with any of this ? trey , you can trust me . i 'm not going to say anything to anyone . trey : my father 's in jail for a crime someone else committed . [ scene_break ] sonny : trey 's always running at the mouth , working some kind of angle . he -- he convinced himself that he 's the smartest guy in the room . so why would he cancel the series that 's gon na make him money ? dante : any chance you made things a little uncomfortable ? sonny : no , i could have made it worse for him -- equipment failure . he 's using a non - union crew . i did n't lift a finger . dante : maybe there were complications you do n't know about . sonny : kristina has badgered mostly everybody in the family except michael to sign a release . it 's a done deal . so this trey guy -- he 's got his eye on a bigger payoff . dante : well , then , let me look into it . sonny : no , no , no , because you got too much on your plate . listen to me . kristina -- we 're -- we 're kind of on better terms . i do n't want to rock the boat , you know , give her another reason to be mad at her parents . [ scene_break ] kristina : trey could have made a name for himself and money , but he -- he gave it all up because he honestly cares about me , and i know that you think it 's impossible for anyone to care about me . alexis : you know that 's not true . kristina : you and dad have no faith in me at all . alexis : of course we do . kristina : i was n't smart enough to get into yale , and now i 'm not smart enough to see through trey . i 'm just -- i 'm just a clueless loser who goes for guys who just want to use me , right ? alexis : wrong . you had a bad experience , and your father and i are just trying to protect you . kristina : protect me ? by lying to me , letting me believe i achieved something when i did n't ? you know what that tells me , mom ? that tells me you just do n't think i can handle disappointment and certainly not a relationship . alexis : listen . af -- after everything that happened with you and kiefer , you ca n't blame me for trying so hard . kristina : you think someone smarter or stronger would have broken up with kiefer the first time he hit me . alexis : no , i do n't think that , because you were manipulated . you were victimized . kristina : i do n't want to be a victim . i want to live my own life . i want to make my own choices , my own decisions , and deal with the consequences . but i 'm unable to do that until you and dad let me go . [ scene_break ] jason : i do n't mean to question how you feel . if dr. keenan makes you happy , you -- you should go for it . elizabeth : i 'm not sure i 'm gon na go for it . jason : well , i just mean i - i wish i would have known that he was out at wyndemere , that -- that he kept it a secret , that he was working for helena cassadine . elizabeth : from what ewen told me , it was the daughter who hired him and he never even had contact with helena . jason : still , weird . elizabeth : please do n't make it more than it is . [ scene_break ] ewen : have n't i done enough ? you know , i faked robin 's death . i helped you get her out of the country . what -- what more do you want ? jerry : you see , dr. scorpio drake 's apparent demise was a means to an end , and there 's plenty more to come . ewen : yeah , well , i 'm not interested , jerry . after what you had me do to robin and her husband , i 'm done . jerry : oh , come on . do n't be naive . you 're in too deep . there 's no way out . ewen : yeah , well , i 'll -- i 'll go to the authorities and tell them everything . i 'll -- i 'll explain that robin is still alive , and i 'll tell them where you sent her in switzerland , and they will throw you in prison , where you belong . jerry : [ chuckles ] really ? no one 's ever managed to do that ... boy . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i think you have a suspicious nature . jason : no , it 's just , you know -- it 's part of my job -- part of my job to notice things . elizabeth : it must be exhausting . you never get a chance to relax . jason : well , it kind of becomes automatic , you know . if i see an inconsistency , i pay attention . elizabeth : okay , i do n't want to give you the wrong impression . i do n't think ewen has anything to hide . jason : okay . elizabeth : you do n't believe me ? jason : i , uh , i think you might believe that . elizabeth : he 's a respected psychiatrist . i mean , he 's treating kate , which means sonny trusts him . does n't that carry any weight ? jason : that 's true . dr. keenan has helped kate . elizabeth : that was n't an answer . jason : mm - hmm . it was an answer . elizabeth : oh . okay . let me try this again . you trust sonny , sonny trusts ewen , which means ... aiden : [ coughing ] elizabeth : aiden ? honey , are you okay ? come on , baby . sit up . sit up . open your mouth . aiden ? [ scene_break ] mcbain : answer me , huh ? come after me any way you want . take your best shot . why 'd you have to hurt natalie like this ? todd : i was doing natalie a favor . mcbain : you do n't give a damn about natalie . you only wanted to get back at me . todd : yeah . that 's right . sam : why ? todd : why ? because i actually love the mother of my children . i actually want to have a life with blair , and i almost did . i was together with blair before lieutenant mclaw and order barged in . mcbain : to arrest you for murdering your brother . todd : nobody liked victor . you despised victor . you just did n't want me to be with blair . you appointed yourself her protector . you should know . you 're gon na get involved with him . he 's got a whole stable of women who he saved . as far as i know , natalie 's the only one that he 's ever knocked up and then abandoned . sam : so you trashed john 's family 'cause you 're gon na get revenge on him ? todd : no , john trashed his family when he got involved with you ! and he trashed blair 's life when he broke down the door ! blair said her whole world had been blown apart . well , that 's what i 've done . i blew natalie 's whole world apart , and you know what ? i hope she never forgets the way this feels right now . mcbain : you finished , manning ? todd : yeah . mcbain : yeah ? todd : i think i 'm finished . mcbain : that 's good ... ... 'cause i 'm just getting started .

[ chuckles ] why did n't you tell me last night that she woke up ? jason : because of what she said about me . [ scene_break ] [ door closes ] hayden : we met yesterday , right ? you were with jake ? sam : yes , i was . hayden : did you tell me your name ? sam : [ chuckles ] i did , actually . it 's samantha morgan , but you already knew that , did n't you ? [ scene_break ] patrick : sam and i found out about dr. clay last night . she 's understandably upset . dr. obrecht : that 's right . she and dr. clay were once involved . patrick : yeah , they were , but more importantly , dr. clay saved her son 's life . dr. obrecht : as well as many others ' . that 's why i do n't understand how he could meet such a violent end . patrick : i do n't know . honestly , as far as i know , he did n't have any enemies . dr. obrecht : and the police are n't releasing very many details . we can only wonder who could have committed such a heinous crime . [ scene_break ] franco : you think i killed silas . nathan : let me tell you what i think , franco . i think that my partner and i arrived at dr. clay 's apartment late last night to find him stabbed to death and laying on the ground , and you there with a bag containing a butcher knife . we also have kiki jerome 's testimony detailing her arrival at her father 's apartment -- finding you there in front of the door carrying the aforementioned bag containing the aforementioned knife . franco : does n't prove that i killed silas . nathan : no , no , it does n't . however , the initial report from the coroner shows that the type of knife that we found you carrying is consistent with the stab wounds on dr. clay . and the report from csu shows that the blood that we found on the knife is a match to dr. clay , and the one print that we found -- a partial -- is yours . you want to explain that to me ? the knife appeared to be wiped clean , but in your hurry ... you left us one . franco , you left a partial . now , i do n't need to be the one to tell you this , but you 're in deep trouble . and if you 've got anything to say to exonerate yourself , now is the time .

[ doorbell rings ] morgan : but , um -- ava : hold that thought , okay ? somebody 's at the door . morgan : but we really need to talk . ava : but nothing . we 'll talk later . [ sighs ] oh , detective falconeri . what brings you by ? dante : morning , ms. demuccio . i wanted to , uh , ask you some questions about the murder of silas clay . [ scene_break ] nathan : all right , franco . you know the drill . with the evidence that we have here , things are not looking good for you . franco : are you familiar with the phrase `` rush to judgment `` ? nathan : we are proceeding with the theory that you murdered silas clay and were making your escape when were caught by the victim 's daughter , kiki jerome ... unless you can , uh , provide me with any information that points to someone else . [ franco remembers ] nina : you believe in me . franco : of course , i do . nina , i believe in you . i do . if you say you did n't stab silas , then you did n't . that 's the end of it -- period . nina : why do you believe in me ? franco : because i love you . if you say you 're innocent , then you -- you were innocent the last time , right ? you 're innocent now . nina : i 'm innocent . franco : and if i had just listened to you when you said that you did n't take avery , we probably would n't even be in this mess , right ? [ back to present ] franco : nope . nothing -- i got nothing . nathan : well , then , we 'll just have to charge you . franco : charge away . so , last night , i was supposed to be able to make a phone call . your boss would n't let me . i 'll make that phone call now . [ scene_break ] ric : nina . nina : oh , ric . thank you for coming . ric : hey , hey , no . of course . you said it was urgent . but you know we ca n't make a habit of this . we agreed that we could n't communicate for a while , remember ? nina : i know , but something happened . ric : okay , look , i understand that it 's very lonely here , but you have to concentrate on getting better . nina : no . i - i had to call you . everything is different ... now that silas is dead . [ scene_break ] [ telephone ringing ] morgan : come on , kiki , where are you ? [ doorbell rings ] morgan : kiki , oh , my god . kiki : my father 's dead . morgan : i know . come in . i 'm so sorry . i - i - i - i was trying to find -- i wanted to get ahold of you so i could -- i - i - i could tell you myself . i left you a bunch of messages . kiki : i 'm sorry . i -- my phone was blowing up , but i turned it off . i 'm so sorry . morgan : no , no , no . do n't be sorry . i was just -- i was just worried about you . kiki : i spent the whole night at the police station . morgan : did the police call you about your dad ? kiki : no . i 'm the one who found him . morgan : oh , no . [ scene_break ] ava : you got questions about dr. clay for me ? dante : yeah , for you . may i come in ? ava : yeah , of course . where are my manners , right ? i was just reading about him in the paper . dante : yeah . ava : it 's terrible what happened to that poor man . you know , i 'd only met him a couple of times , you know , but he was my , uh , niece 's father . dante : right , kiki . yeah . ava : so do you have a suspect or something ? the paper did n't say . dante : uh , i 'm sorry . i ca n't comment on an ongoing investigation , but i do need some information from you . ava : right -- the questions . you know , i really wish that i could help you . i do , but i do n't think i can be of much help . i -- ava had a history with him . i did n't know him very well at all . dante : really ? then why did you call him last night ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what did hayden say about you ? jason : that she recognizes me -- that i 'm her husband , jake barnes . elizabeth : what ? jason : yeah , it seems the only memory she seems to have are the lies that ric paid her to tell . elizabeth : [ laughing ] oh . well , i d - did not expect that . jason : yeah , neither did i . trust me . but i explained to her that we are not , never have been married , and , uh , what she thinks she remembers was part of an elaborate con . elizabeth : well , how did she take it ? jason : she was a bit confused . yeah , to say the least . but , um , she seems to understand that the only thing between us was the con . elizabeth : and that was it ? just that ? jason : yeah . yeah , i have to admit , i was a little disappointed . i thought maybe when hayden woke up , i 'd maybe hear something about -- elizabeth : that she could tell you who you are . jason : yeah . elizabeth : i 'm sorry . jason : that 's okay . just because she does n't remember now does n't mean she wo n't . i mean , patrick seems to think that everything could come right back to her . [ scene_break ] patrick : i do n't know who could have done something like this to -- thank you -- to dr. clay . but it 's in the pcpd 's hands to bring the person responsible to justice . now if you do n't mind , i 've got work to do . dr. obrecht : dr. clay 's death is a terrible loss for the hospital , not to mention our patients . speaking of patients , you must be pleased that hayden barnes has emerged from her coma . patrick : yes . she 's still reacclimating , but she 's alert and coherent . she seems to be responding quite well . thanks to your surgical skills , i 'm sure . it 's fascinating , is n't it ? the body 's ability to heal ? for all those months , ms. barnes was effectively gone from our world . who knows what she -- what she felt , what she experienced ? now that she 's awake , one can only imagine the enlightenment she has to offer . [ scene_break ] hayden : i do n't `` already `` know anything about you , and i 'm pretty sure i do n't want to . sam : look , i am , um -- i 'm not buying this whole amnesia act . hayden : you think this is an act ? sam : you wake up from a coma , and instead of remembering your real life , all you remember is this fiction you peddled about being mrs. jake barnes . hayden : you know , dr. drake said it was perfectly normal for me to be disoriented . sam : yeah , dr. drake may give you the benefit of the doubt , but i 've had your number since day one when you lied to jake about who he was just so you could get some big score from your partner in crime , ric . hayden : what , so now you think i 'm some kind of con artist ? sam : well , i mean , it takes one to know one . [ laughs ] that bullet may have messed up your scheme a little , but i got a glimpse of the real you when i walked in the door just now . obviously , you 're not gon na be able to keep this up for long , so why do n't you just save us all the trouble and admit that you know exactly who you are . hayden : if you think suffering a traumatic memory loss is some kind of con , try living through it . sam : look , i do n't -- i do n't know what kind of game this is , but i am not playing it anymore . life is too short , you know ? i -- i actually lost somebody really close to me last night , and it made me realize that we do n't have any time to waste , so here 's the deal . i think you know exactly who jake is . i do n't know why you 're holding back or what you plan on doing with the information , but you better believe i 'm gon na figure it out . patrick : hey . what 's going on ? hayden : what 's going on is this woman came into my room uninvited and started throwing around all kinds of accusations . i do n't know her and i do n't want to , so , please , get her away from me . [ scene_break ] jason : i can talk about giving up on a past that i do n't remember . but , uh , it 's still out there -- the possibility that i may have another life . elizabeth : the idea that you could have a family or there 's -- another woman out there who loves you , is -- jason : hey . [ sighs ] elizabeth : i try not to dwell on it , but every night i go to bed , and i wonder if it 's all gon na disappear when i wake up in the morning . if somebody 's gon na show up and take you away from me . i have a confession . part of me hopes that you never find out who you are . and i know that makes me terribly selfish . jason : [ sighs ] no , it does n't . i do n't want to lose you either , because i love you . elizabeth : i love you , too . jason : you do ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . jason : mm - hmm ? good . mm . you ca n't get rid of me , and your coffee is cold . ooh , look at that . got to -- [ groans ] elizabeth : [ laughs ] jason : i 'll get you another cup . elizabeth : you 're gon na spoil me . jason : ai n't nothing wrong with that . [ knocks on door ] jason : i 'll be right back . elizabeth : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] nikolas , it 's me . we need to talk . [ scene_break ] morgan : oh , kiki . you found the body ? you found your dad 's body ? kiki : [ sobbing ] oh , god , morgan , it was so horrible . he was just lying there ... so still . i think that i knew right away that he was dead . i just -- i did n't want to believe that it was true . morgan : i 'm sorry . i ca n't even imagine . but , uh , w - were n't you supposed to be in the hamptons ? wh - why 'd you come back ? kiki : my dad left me a message . he said he had something important to tell me . [ scene_break ] ava : i beg your pardon ? what call are you referring to ? dante : uh , we have dr. clay 's cell phone , and in the call logs , there 's an incoming call from you last night , not long before he was found dead . do you remember making that call ? [ ava remembers ] ava : [ sighs ] pick up , silas , please . silas : you 've reached dr. silas clay . if this is a patient -- ava : oh , damn it . [ sighs ] oh , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . he 's not gon na do this to me . who gives a damn about the affair ? if he tells kiki who i really am , i 'm going to prison . my life will be over . [ back to present : ava : yeah . you know , actually , i do remember making that call . dante : yeah ? can you tell me what it was for ? [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : nathan , hello . nathan : hey . silas -- you heard about silas , huh ? dr. obrecht : yeah , it was a tragic loss for the hospital . nathan : yeah , i can imagine . well , hey , listen , we will catch this murderer , and we will bring him to justice . dr. obrecht : that 's why i 'm here . liebchen , you have the wrong man . franco is innocent . nathan : wait . how do you even know that we arrested franco ? we have n't released any information to the public yet . dr. obrecht : he told me when he called me a little while ago . nathan : oh . i thought he was just talking to a lawyer . he called you ? dr. obrecht : indeed . he asked to speak to me in person . so , may i see him ? nathan : [ sighs ] yeah . come with me . you 've got a visitor . dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] oh , mein lieber , franco . how i hate to see you like this . franco : [ sighs ] thank you for coming . dr. obrecht : of course . where else would i be in your time of need ? [ door closes ] dr. obrecht : but i thought you had moved on from your past , learned the error of your ways . what possessed you to murder silas clay ? franco : nothing possessed me . i did n't murder silas . dr. obrecht : oh , gott sei dank . i knew it had to be a dreadful mistake . franco : oh , thank you for your faith in me . i appreciate it . dr. obrecht : of course . but you 're going to need a lot more than faith to rectify the situation . why did n't you call an attorney ? why reach out to me ? franco : well , because you 're the only one i can trust . you 're the only one who can help me . dr. obrecht : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] ric : how did you know about silas ? nina : i saw it on the news last night . ric : it must have been very upsetting . nina : it is . you have no idea . it is . ric : yeah , i -- i was gon na call you the minute that i heard about it , but then i -- i did n't want to make you more upset than you already were . i mean , i know how hard it is to deal with the fact that you kidnapped that baby . nina : i did n't kidnap the baby . [ scene_break ] morgan : your dad wanted to talk to you , but he did n't say why ? kiki : all he said was that it was important . i called him right back after i got the message , but he did n't answer . and besides , the bachelorette party was n't all that much fun . i do n't know , it 's just -- it 's been so long since i knew those girls . we do n't really have anything in common anymore . they kept asking me about who i was dating , and i 'd talk about you , and that just -- it made me miss you . morgan : i miss you , too . i miss you , too . kiki : so between the message from my dad and missing you , i -- i decided to come home early . but who knows ? i mean , if i had made my mind up an hour earlier , maybe my dad would still be alive . [ scene_break ] dante : you say you do n't know silas very well , so why were you calling him ? ava : about kiki . dante : what about kiki ? ava : she was out of town for a couple of days , and i wanted to throw her a dinner party , you know , when she got back to welcome her home . and i thought i would invite silas . i figured i -- i should get to know him a little better , you know , seeing as how we 're family , sort of , you know , through kiki . i wanted to normalize things . dante : so , why did n't you leave him a message ? ava : well , i -- i never do . i hate the way my voice sounds on those things . [ laughing ] dante : really . ava : and 50 % of the time , nobody listens to them anyway , right ? and i figured i 'd call him back later . you know , now , clearly , i 'll never have that chance . so ... any other questions ? dante : yeah , just one . can you tell me about your relationship with franco baldwin ? [ scene_break ] morgan : did the , uh -- the police tell you anything at the station ? like , do they know who did it ? 'cause they did n't say on the news . kiki : yeah , the police know who killed my father . they arrested him last night . morgan : him ? kiki : yeah . it was franco . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : franco , i 'm touched by your confidence in me , and i 'll do whatever i can to help you . but the law 's not my area of expertise . you need counsel . franco : okay , but doctor / patient confidentiality -- that works the same way as attorney / client privilege , right ? dr. obrecht : sort of . franco : so anything that i say to you , you ca n't talk about with anybody else , right ? dr. obrecht : uh , i 'd have to be providing medical services at the time . franco : okay . what , um -- what about a hangnail ? uh , does that count ? dr. obrecht : ow . i suppose . let me get my first aid kit . franco : ow . okay , so now anything i say to you , you ca n't repeat , right -- to anyone ? dr. obrecht : of course . whatever you tell me now is protected by the privilege . [ blows ] so , what is it ? franco : i found nina at the scene of the crime . [ scene_break ] ric : [ scoffs ] nina . i - i know it 's very difficult for you to face what happened , but we 've been over this . you may not remember kidnapping avery , but the evidence speaks for itself . nina : it 's circumstantial . you ca n't prove that it happened . ric : okay . if you did n't -- if you did n't take that baby then who did ? nina : hey , j ! nathan : hey . hi . hey ! ric . [ clears throat ] nina : what are you doing here ? nathan : actually , i , uh , i have some bad news . ric : well , that wo n't be necessary . nina already knows . [ scene_break ] sam : what was that ? you practically threw me out of hayden 's room . patrick : sam , i know that you 're dealing with silas ' death , but come on -- she just woke up from a coma . are n't you coming on a little bit strong ? sam : a little strong ? no , the woman is a fraud , and i would have been able to prove it if you let stay in there like , two -- prove what ? come on , patrick . you 're not buying this whole amnesia act . she 's a con artist . patrick : until that is proven by a medical professional , i have no choice but to treat her condition as genuine . sam : but she 's lying . patrick : if she 's lying , what does it matter to you ? [ elevator doors open ] [ scene_break ] [ slow music playing ] elizabeth : [ sighs ] nikolas : here you go . elizabeth : thank you . nikolas : you sure you do n't want some coffee ? elizabeth : oh , caffeine is the last thing i need right now . nikolas : okay . so hayden just woke up ? and all she remembers is that lie she told about being jake 's wife ? elizabeth : apparently . nikolas : you think she 's lying ? elizabeth : to what end ? before she -- she got shot , she was gon na tell jake the truth . i do n't see how it would serve her to start lying again . nikolas : okay , so , we 're in the clear . she does n't remember anything . elizabeth : well , it does n't mean she wo n't . you know head injuries are unpredictable . she could regain her memory , and if she does , everyone is gon na find out that jake is really jason , and that the two of us were covering up the entire time . nikolas : do n't worry . i will take care of it . elizabeth : you know , that 's the second time you 've said that to me . the first time was after i told you there was a spike in hayden 's vitals . nikolas : i said do n't worry . i will handle it . elizabeth : what exactly does that mean ? [ scene_break ] jason : uh ... sorry to interrupt . everything okay , guys ? sam : not really , no . a friend of mine died -- actually , was murdered last night . jason : oh , i am sorry . uh , is there anything i can do ? sam : no , but thank you for offering . jason : okay . sam : are you here to see hayden ? jason : yeah , i wanted to check up on her . is that okay ? patrick : yeah , it should be fine . i do n't think there should be a problem with it . jason : thank you , and i am sorry about your friend . sam : look , i 'm sorry . look , i - i - i was out of line before . i understand that hayden is your patient . it 's just i do n't trust her as far as i can throw her . patrick : sam , i 'm not questioning your instincts . i 'm just not sure why it 's important to you . sam : [ sighs ] it 's about nikolas . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i 'm not exactly sure what you 're asking me . elizabeth : you just said you were going to `` handle everything `` , which implies you 're going to handle hayden . i -- i just want to know -- what exactly are you planning to do ? nikolas : i will not be back in the position that i was before -- allowing her to hold the truth over us , knowing that at any moment , she might expose our secret to the world ? no way . there are ways to deal with her . elizabeth : the last time hayden threatened us , you called her bluff . less than an hour later , she was shot in the head -- an innocent bystander caught in the cross - fire . or was she ? [ scene_break ] nathan : [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry . i know how much you loved your first husband . ric : there , uh -- there was n't much news last night about the whole thing . do the police have any leads ? nathan : well , i 'm not entirely sure that this is the time , being that nina is grieving , and i 'm not here as a cop , i 'm here as her brother . nina : no , i -- i want to know . nathan : yeah . we do have someone in custody .

[ scene_break ] ava : there is nothing incriminating in this bag , at least not directly incriminating to me . julian : so , why do you look so nervous ? ava : i was just reacting to something that somebody else did . julian : caused a lot of problems ? ava : problems that somebody else caused . mm . julian : so , let me guess -- you want me to undo all these problems that somebody else caused ? [ inhales sharply ] so , tell me , ava , um , this sudden urge to `` do the right thing `` , was it influenced by a certain , uh , st. griffin ? ava : as a matter of fact , this crisis of conscience is just as much your fault as it is his . you told me that you would n't use your brass knuckles on bensch , and you said that you could n't because you wanted to be a better man for kim .

[ scene_break ] jordan : you are entitled to a lawyer . nelle : yeah , i also have the right to remain silent , so why do n't i stick with that one for the time being ? jordan : why ? nelle : is that a serious question ? jordan : you just lost a baby , nelle -- not to mention a husband and the chance to inherit his money if he died without a will , like you planned . so , what would you possibly have to gain by keeping silent about what you did to carly ? nelle : now , who says i did anything to carly ? jordan : you did .
