[ scene_break ] alexis : you look this over , and i 'll be right back . skye : oh , sure . yeah . skye : you ? felicia : skye , i 'm glad i caught you . have you remembered any more details about the woman you saw the night that alcazar was murdered ? any details at all ? if her hair was curly , if her hair was straight ? her physique , her build , how big her shoulders were ? alexis : hi , felicia . how are you ? felicia : i 'm fine , thank you . oh , i do n't know if you know , but jax hired me to find the woman that murdered alcazar so skye could be cleared . alexis : any new leads ? felicia : i 'm following up on the woman that skye saw the night that alcazar was murdered , and i was just asking her if she remembered anything more .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's -- it 's cold out here . why do n't we go back up to your room and we can warm up ? ric : yeah , that 's the best offer i 've had in a long time . elizabeth : then come on . we can just -- we can relax . we can listen to some music -- ric : elizabeth , elizabeth -- i am -- i 'm incredibly flattered , but i know what this is about and i just -- i do n't think i can take advantage of the situation . elizabeth : you 're -- you 're turning me down ? ric : because you do n't mean it . i wish that you did . [ scene_break ] jason : you need to listen to me . courtney : okay , well , we 'll talk on the way to the loft . you need to lie down and rest . jason : i -- i ca n't see you anymore . courtney : sonny must have gone crazy when you told him about us -- jason : i wo n't be going back to the loft or spending time together . it 's just best that we do n't -- we do n't see each other at all . [ scene_break ] carly : how can you look at jason in the eye and ask him to give up his chance at happiness ? sonny : i do n't want courtney risking her life . carly : do n't make this all about courtney . sonny : well -- carly : jason has always done everything that you have ever asked him to . so you know what ? if he is dangerous , it 's because you made him that way . and now you 're telling him he ca n't have love in his life ? sonny : jason 's always known . this life comes with a price . carly : oh , has he ? sonny : yes , he has . carly : are you sure ? maybe he thought that someday he could have a family like you do . sonny : i do n't know . carly : sonny , you and i are together because we betrayed jason . somehow he found a way to forgive that . he 's always put your happiness ahead of his own . it 's your turn now , sweetie . you owe him . sonny : you think i 'm proud of myself , carly ? you think this is easy for me ? it 's killing me ! [ scene_break ] skye : i 've told you all that i know . there was a woman -- dark hair , dark coat , jeans -- and i 'm sure that that piece of black material the police found is probably from her coat . i 've tried to remember more details , but i 'm afraid that 's the best i can do . felicia : all right . then i 'll check the surveillance tapes at the hotel and then crosscheck alcazar 's business contacts . skye : oh , you know , i could help you with that legwork . felicia : that 's all right . skye : oh , felicia , you must have a ton to do , and i know alexis would probably rather be here with her baby instead of dealing with all this tedious stuff . felicia : i appreciate the offer , but i can handle it . skye : okay . alexis : you let me know if you remember anything else . skye : oh , absolutely , i will . alexis : we should go over the transcripts . do you have a minute ? skye : you know what ? i really need to get to an a.a. meeting . could we maybe do this tomorrow ? [ scene_break ] summer : did you draw this picture here on your daddy 's shelf ? lesley lu : yes . summer : really ? wow . it 's wonderful . you 're a very good artist . lesley lu : that 's what mommy says . summer : she must be very proud of you . lesley lu : it 's a polar bear . summer : it is a polar bear eating ice cream . mint chocolate chip ? that 's my favorite . maybe we could go get some ice cream together sometime . what do you think ? lesley lu : can i , daddy ? luke : we 'll talk about it . right now i need to get you home to grandma lesley because she 's -- she 's been worried . so say bye . lesley lu : bye , summer . summer : good - bye , lulu . i hope to see you again soon . luke : i wo n't be long . can you wait here ? summer : uh - huh . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : this is really embarrassing . ric : no , let 's not confuse the issue here . i would like nothing more than to go upstairs with you right now , elizabeth , but i just do n't think that this is about me . elizabeth : yeah . yeah , you 're right . not that i feel any less stupid . ric : i know , i know . it 's about jason , is n't it ? elizabeth : him , lucky . it 's just hitting me that all my ex - boyfriends are happily riding off into the sunset with these other women . i 'm happy for lucky . really , i am . we 're good friends now , and i hope that we 're friends forever , but losing him really hurt . and it still does with jason . ric : you feel like doing something about it , huh ? elizabeth : okay , will you stop being so nice ? you make me feel like more of an idiot . ric : do n't , all right ? listen , i -- i had ulterior motives for turning you down . elizabeth : like what ? ric : well , you did come to me because you were hurt , not because you thought i was incredibly irresistible , right ? elizabeth : well , i would n't put it quite so bluntly . ric : okay , sure . look , we could go back to my room , but you would definitely regret it . just about the time you 'd be thinking to yourself , `` i hope i never see that guy again , `` that 's when i would start thinking to myself , `` boy , i ca n't wait to see her . `` i just want to take it slow . i do n't want to risk losing you before we even get started . elizabeth : well , i do n't know whether to thank you or die on the spot . ric : do n't do either . why do n't you let me walk you home ? elizabeth : that 's a good compromise . ric : come on . show me the way . [ scene_break ] sonny : i know i 'm responsible . i taught jason everything he knows . that 's why he ca n't be with courtney . asking him to give her up was one of the toughest things i 've ever had to do . courtney : sonny , you have a wife and a family . it 's not your life that 's changing . it 's jason 's . and if you ask him to give up his love , it 's going to hurt him terribly . sonny : yeah , but you know what ? she 's going to still be alive and have a great life ahead of her . carly : maybe , maybe not . things happen every day . it 's dangerous to walk across the street . there 's a danger in that . sonny : what are the odds ? one out of how many people ? jason and i are in danger every day . carly : yeah , and you still married me . sonny : yeah , but you know what ? i did n't want to , remember ? i tried not to . carly : yeah . sonny : right . and you said did n't matter because you could handle it . carly : that 's right , and i still feel that way . it is worth it to me , sonny , because i am happy right where i am and i would not change places with anybody . maybe courtney feels the same way about jason . sonny : courtney just moved to port charles a year ago . she just got together with jason . nothing 's set in stone . she can make other choices , go down another path . i mean , come on . carly : she does n't want that . what if she does n't , sonny ? sonny : i told you already . she can go to college . she can get a degree , have a nice career . instead of waiting on tables , she can meet a man who maybe will have a regular job , can give her security and safety . jason wants that , too . carly : courtney can meet a thousand men -- a thousand men . they could be white - collar types , ivy league types , medical students , lawyers . i do n't care . no one is going to hold a candle to jason . sonny : you do n't know that . carly : yes , i do . sonny : you do n't know that . carly : do n't you think he 's special ? sonny : to us he 's special , yes ! carly : sonny , just stop it , stop it ! this is nothing -- this is all about your need to control courtney 's life . admit it . sonny : yes , it is , damn it ! because i do n't want her going down that road if i know what 's going to be at the end ! carly : you do n't know . you have no idea because this is not your choice to make . it is courtney 's choice . and you know what ? the only reason you have a say in this is because you are going to use jason 's loyalty against him . sonny : i told -- i told jason the truth -- that he 's too dangerous . i did n't order him to give her up . i did n't have to because he knows what 's best for her . he 's going to do that on his own . carly : you know what ? jason has been loyal to you for so long that you ca n't even appreciate it anymore . finally he finds happiness in his life and something he needs and something he wants , and what do you do ? you make him choose because you know damn well he is never , ever going to fail you . you know what , sonny ? that is betrayal . i do n't care how it makes you feel and i do n't care what you want to call it . you just betrayed your best friend . think about it . [ door slams ] [ scene_break ] courtney : i was hoping sonny would n't do this . jason : it 's my decision . courtney : he 's forcing it on you , jason . he 's making you choose between him and me , and it 's not fair . jason : sonny does n't make me do anything . courtney : but suddenly , out of the blue , you just want us to be over ? jason : i should have never let it get as far as it did . courtney : do n't . do n't pretend that 's what you want . come on . you and i -- we 'll go to sonny together , and we will make him understand -- jason : you need -- you need -- jason : to understand that i 'm -- that i 'm done . courtney : no , those are sonny 's words . jason , you told me that you love me . that does n't just disappear . do you just think that you have to do everything that he tells you to prove your loyalty to him ? jason : just let it go . courtney : no . you put your trust in me . you let me get close to you . jason : stop . just stop pushing -- courtney : why ? do you want me to just pretend that it meant nothing , that it never happened ? that you never helped me ? we never spent christmas together ? we never met in secret at our loft and listened to each other and planned all the things we -- you just want me to pretend that it meant nothing , jason ? jason : just -- i need you to understand that -- courtney : no , i understand . i understand what you do , and i accept it . i want to be a part of your life . how can you just throw that away ? jason : it does n't matter . courtney : it does matter , jason . you love me , and now you 're so determined to end what we have . but you know what ? in a day or maybe even a week , it is going to come crashing in on you , and you are going to feel the pain and the loss and wonder if it could possibly be worth it . jason : i got to go . courtney : just first be honest with me . did sonny tell you it had to end ? jason : sonny said what i already knew -- you stay with me , you 're going to get hurt . there 's no way around that . i ca n't let that happen . courtney : no , you do n't mean that . tell me you do n't love me . you ca n't do it , can you ? say it . i want to hear you say it . jason : good - bye . [ scene_break ] skye : hey , felicia -- thanks for coming . felicia : you wanted me to meet with someone ? skye : yeah , me . i have some new information . felicia : okay . what is it ? skye : well , i remembered more about that woman who was seen running out of alcazar 's suite , and i think you 're not going to believe this , but i think it may have been alexis . felicia : did you see her face ? skye : well , quickly , in profile . felicia : could you be wrong about this ? skye : possibly . but i honestly think that it was her . felicia : this just seems incredible . skye : well , maybe not . i mean , alexis hated alcazar . she blamed him for the death of her sister . felicia : and he left her lying in the snow when she was in labor . skye : it makes perfect sense that alexis would kill alcazar . i mean , when jax confessed , she rushed to his side to represent him even though her baby was still in neonatal i.c.u . and then again when jason and brenda were charged with the murder , she represented them . and when the guilty verdict came out , she could have been the one that provided that evidence to the police that cleared them without giving herself up . felicia : she was the first one to see the body in the alley . skye : but now she 's agreed to represent me , which is a perfect way for her to keep covering her tracks . i ca n't believe this , felicia . i think my lawyer is the killer . what am i going to do ? felicia : nothing . absolutely nothing . before we implicate alexis , we have to be sure . [ scene_break ] alexis : did you get the test results back ? cameron : yeah , i was just with the technician . we went over the scans thoroughly . alexis : and ? cameron : there 's no sign of any abnormality in your brain . in other words , alexis , there 's no physical reason for your behavior . alexis : i 'll speak to the neurologist myself . cameron : he 'll tell you the same thing . alexis : that may be the case , but i would like to speak to him myself . this is not your area of expertise . cameron : alexis , i 've seen hundreds of these scans . alexis : i understand that . cameron : you know , most people would be thrilled to find out that there 's nothing wrong with them , but your need to be in control is so strong , you 'd actually prefer a physical reason , would n't you ? alexis : do you really think that this line of therapy is helping me right now ? do you think that speaking to me this way at this particular time is what i need ? cameron : no , but what you need is to face reality , alexis . now , the answer as to why you 've been assuming your sister 's personality wo n't be found in an x - ray or any other medical test . if , as i suspect , you have this dissociative disorder , you 're going to have to find the courage to face it and go through therapy -- if not for yourself , then for the good of your daughter . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] man : ric lansing is here on business . i 'll be downstairs if you need me . ric : well , i brought some information on colleges for courtney to look over . some of the deadlines are past , but i can make some calls to the admissions offices . sonny : just go ahead and leave them because i do n't think courtney 's going to be very receptive right now . ric : give her time . sonny : you think so ? ric : well , yeah , you 're -- you 're a concerned older brother trying to protect your sister . i 'm sure she does n't see that right now , but -- i 'm sure jason does n't , either . but you know what ? i have a feeling that they both will . you know , sonny , if i were jason right about now , i 'm sure i 'd be pretty upset . but once -- once i had a chance to calm down and see everything clearly , i think i 'd be grateful . sonny : okay , first of all , you 're not jason . you are a smarmy suck - up selling a line of bull i can see coming a mile away . [ scene_break ] courtney : i do n't care what the rules are . i have to leave now . nurse : dr. jones wanted you to stay overnight . courtney : just get the papers , okay ? i 'm just going to leave , anyway . nurse : i 'll be back with the forms . courtney : fine . great . carly : you might want to cool down before you head out of here . courtney : you know what , carly ? if you 're here to tell me to accept this or just give up on jason because it 's for the best and sonny 's just trying to protect me , you can just save your breath , okay ? carly : jason broke up with you ? courtney : no , no , no . jason did what sonny told him to do . but i wo n't . sonny is wrong on this , and jason and i -- we 're going to be together no matter what . [ scene_break ] brenda : hey . brenda : you okay ? brenda : can i do something ? you look bad . jason : no , thanks . brenda : you know , you should n't have checked yourself out of the hospital . you should probably rest so you can heal -- jason : brenda , what do you want ? brenda : um -- it 's just that jax wants to get married right away , so -- jason : why ? brenda : i do n't know . he 's rushing me . it 's kind of scaring me -- jason : you should tell him that . brenda : i tried telling him , but it does n't matter . i 'm probably just being paranoid . it 's probably just my stupid fear of happiness . jason : look , jax is dependable . he 's safe . no one 's trying to kill you . the only thing stopping you , brenda , is you . you know that , right ? brenda : yeah , i know . you 're right . you okay ? jason : yeah , i 'm fine . brenda : you do n't look like you 're fine . something happened . brenda : did you break up with courtney ? jason : do you want me to sign the papers or not ? [ door opens ] jax : i heard you checked yourself out of the hospital . i think it 's time you sign these and they end your marriage to brenda . [ scene_break ] felicia : skye is almost certain that alexis is the woman she saw the night of the murder . you do n't seem very surprised by that . do you think that alexis murdered alcazar ? cameron : it 's possible , but she may not remember doing it . felicia : what 's that supposed to mean ? cameron : well , i ca n't tell you . felicia : is alexis a patient of yours ? cameron : let 's just say i 've been privy to some confidential information . felicia : but if this information has proof that alexis murdered alcazar , you 're going to have to come forward and tell the police about it . cameron : no , i do n't have any proof . i 'm just trying to piece together what happened that night . felicia : well , if there 's anything i can do to help you -- cameron : what about alexis ' childhood ? did she suffer any serious emotional trauma ? felicia : probably . after all , she is a cassadine . cameron : felicia , i need some time . can you stall the investigation ? felicia : stall it ? cameron : slow it down until i find out what 's going on with alexis . felicia : well , my obligation is to skye . i 'm supposed to prove that she 's innocent . cameron : yeah , i want that , too , but not at the expense of alexis . this could ruin her life . felicia : well , if she 's guilty -- cameron : if she 's guilty , she could lose her child . as a mother yourself , i 'm sure you know what that could be like . felicia : i did n't commit murder . cameron : felicia , i may be able to help alexis . now , i know what it 's like to lose a child . i do n't want her to suffer the same loss . felicia : this sounds personal . cameron : yeah . so if you could just sort of sidetrack the investigation until we 're sure , i 'd appreciate it . alexis needs all the time we can give her . [ scene_break ] ric : next time i 'll remember not to offer my opinion about jason . sonny : let 's get something straight here , hmm ? occasionally you 've been useful to me , and carly needs your help for the club . i will pay you nicely for your services . but you are hired help . i do n't want your friendship . i do n't want your advice . stop sucking up . stop dropping by with lame , transparent excuses , because it wastes my time . it insults my intelligence . there are a lot of young hotshot lawyers out there where you come from -- yeah -- and you can be replaced -- like that . am i clear ? ric : perfectly . sonny : good . get the hell out of here . [ scene_break ] jax : just sign them . you 've been using your marriage to brenda as a way to whitewash your mobster image while the d.a . 's been breathing down your neck , but that 's over now and we want to move on . jason : i 'm not doing this tonight . jax : it 's just one signature . brenda : jax -- jason : like i said , i 'm not signing . brenda : listen , if -- if you 're feeling up to it -- i mean , if you really want to sign it , you can go ahead and do it . jason : are you sure ? brenda : yeah . you 're right . the only person standing in my way is me . i 'm going to go ahead and take that chance that someone might actually love me forever . jax : thanks . shall we go ? brenda : i 'll meet you outside . jax : okay . brenda : i 'll be right out . brenda : i know you do n't want to talk . jason : there 's nothing left to say . brenda : i know . i just -- i just want you to know -- jason : brenda , please , i do n't really want to hear this . brenda : that if you did break up with courtney , i know that she must be really upset , and then that must be killing you , and that she thinks that she 's lost everything . you 're a good man . you know , you could always take off and leave this stupid business and have a few jason juniors with that girl . jason : ca n't happen . brenda : how do you know unless you try ? jason : good night , brenda . brenda : i just want you to know that if you did leave her and you know in your heart that there 's no way you could walk away from this business , you really , really did the right thing . brenda : call me if you need anything . [ scene_break ] carly : courtney , i know that you 're hurt , but -- courtney : try angry , carly . sonny does n't care about anyone but himself . i mean , who cares if his orders make other people miserable ? carly : he 's not trying to make you unhappy . courtney : so , what , am i just supposed to thank sonny for his kindness and consideration in ordering jason out of my life ? carly : he is honestly trying to protect you . and he 's trying to keep jason from feeling the hell of responsibility if something were to happen to you . courtney : no . sonny is trying to run my life , just like he has from the beginning . carly : he wants what 's best for you , courtney . courtney : do you believe that i love jason ? carly : yes , i believe that you do . courtney : okay . well , do you believe that jason loves me ? carly : that i know he does . courtney : then , carly , stop trying to talk me out of this . stop asking me to give up jason because sonny is against it . carly : okay . you 're right . you want to be with jason , you deserve to be with him . courtney : so how do i convince sonny ? carly : you ca n't . you ca n't . there 's no middle ground with him . courtney : well , i 'm not giving up . carly : good . you fight for jason . you fight for him with everything that you have .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i did what every abused kid does -- covered , pretended . `` that 's the last time it 's going to happen , you know , 'cause god 's not going to let it happen again . `` but you know , it was just not fair because deke had all the power . my mother , you know , and i , we just did n't -- we did n't have any . as i got older , i started hanging out with the cerullos , pretending , again , that they were my real family . i mean , you know , mrs. cerullo could give you a good whack upside the head , but there was n't any beating going on over there , you know . and then , i , uh , i had olivia . she was an angel -- not to everybody , 'cause she was tough , but she was my light . then , i 'd have to go back to the apartment from hell , where all the beatings , you know , all that , the abuse would start again , and ... but i knew that eventually , i 'd figure out a way to get out . so i started doing odd jobs for joe scully for the cash . olivia did n't want me to do that . she wanted me to quit . dante : well , why did n't you quit , then , if , like you say , it was for the cash ? sonny : well , you know , i asked myself that a thousand times , but maybe i was just kidding myself that i had all this ambition . so i stayed , and olivia left me . dante : and then , you started going with cousin connie . sonny : olivia went her way , i went my way , and then , one day , she turns up pregnant . and i got to -- i 'm going to be very honest with you . i did not know that i was the father . i believed olivia when she told me she had gone wild for a minute and , you know , she 'd been with a few guys . phew . but now that i look back , you know , she did n't tell me it was my child because she 'd already decided that i was too deep into the business . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : ooh . take your jacket off , please . [ sighs ] [ cameron grunts ] elizabeth : so cameron , what did your art teacher say about your art project ? cameron : she said it was great . elizabeth : she did ? see , i told you we had a budding artist on our hands . there we go .

[ chuckles ] such a wary look when i am here to say thank you . [ scene_break ] [ door shuts ] sam : okay . if you do n't want a sauna , now would be the time to speak up , because maxie spent at least a half hour in here taking measurements . jason : yeah . well , why do n't i just let maxie have this place ? sam : you okay ? jason : yeah . i just , uh ... just bumped into elizabeth at kelly 's , and she 's in a bad way , and ... [ sighs ] i tried to comfort her . she was upset . she was fighting me , and i put my arms around her , and that 's , of course , when lucky walks in . sam : oh , no . and he went ballistic ? jason : no . but the way he talked to elizabeth was so cold . i do n't know . it was just really strange for me to see because i 've known lucky since he was a kid , and today was the first time that i actually saw the toll all the lies have taken and the betrayal . i had a part in that , you know . sam : how do you mean ? jason : well , i lied for months . i let lucky believe he was jake 's biological father . then when he found out , he was devastated . yeah , he bounced back , but you know what ? at some point , the spring just snaps , and you ca n't bounce back anymore , and you get stuck where you are , and you get angry . you start to change . and i 'm afraid that 's what 's happening to lucky right now . [ scene_break ] morgan : you 're right . dad 's looking at spending the rest of his life in prison . it 's so unfair . dad did n't even kill claudia . he was just protecting michael . molly : but that wo n't matter because michael wo n't be a factor . and who 's going to bring him up and say that he did it ? certainly not uncle sonny . and even if he did , it could backfire . morgan : how ? molly : well , a jury could believe your father killed claudia and go even harder on him for trying to blame his son . on the other hand , the evidence against uncle sonny is pretty much circumstantial . diane can probably spin a lot of it away -- well , enough to raise reasonable doubt , anyway . remember , all it takes is one juror . [ door opens ] michael : hey . what are you guys up to ? molly : nothing . morgan : um , molly 's helping me with my homework . michael : really ? since doing homework is such a guilty thing to do . what 's really up ? morgan : we 're talking about what 's going to happen to dad if he 's found guilty of killing claudia . michael : life in prison . hardly seems fair , does it , considering i 'm the one who murdered claudia ? molly : but you did n't mean to . morgan : you were just protecting mom and josslyn . michael : yeah , but at some point , that 's not good enough . what matters is dad did n't kill claudia . he should n't have to spend the rest of his life in prison for something that i did . [ scene_break ] sonny : i was about 16 , 17 when deke hit me for the last time . and i do n't know what it was about that particular fist to the face . but i got to tell you , my head exploded , and i saw red . i went after deke like a bat out of hell . i 'd have killed him if my mother did n't stop me . so she told me to leave and never come back . dante : your mother sided with your abuser over you ? sonny : well , you have to understand , back then , you know , there were no resources for help . you drew a card , you lived it , and you pretended . plus , deke was a cop . and that was dangerous on a whole other level . my mother was trapped . dante : right . you never blamed her ? sonny : not for one single minute . anyway , joe scully offered me a job . i started working for him . i needed to get set up , you know . i did n't expect it to be a life choice , or , you know ... i just wanted to get into a better position in the world . dante : something must have happened to change that . sonny : i was away from home ... about a year , and deke beat my mother so bad that he put her in a hospital . so i told joe what happened . joe said be out in the public the next night . dante : where 'd they find deke 's body ? sonny : in an alley , shot execution style . that was my point of no return . i was going to be loyal to joe for the rest of his life . so that 's my path . i just wanted you to know how i got here . dante : that 's , uh ... that 's a pretty terrible story , sonny . it 's pretty painful to hear . i ca n't even imagine living through it , or even remembering it . i feel sorry for the boy you were . but you know what ? the prisons are full of lowlifes with crappy back stories , so that does n't excuse anything . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you 've got 5 seconds to get out of my house before i call the police . helena : oh , really , elizabeth . there 's no need for histrionics . as i said , i have come to say thank you . and i brought a small token of my appreciation . elizabeth , because of you , nikolas has come into his own as a true cassadine . and in a matter of months , you managed to achieve a goal that has eluded me since my grandson was born . i 'm eternally grateful . elizabeth : get out . get out . just get out of my house ! [ door opens ] ethan : what did you do to her ? elizabeth : get this woman out of my house . ethan : you need to leave . helena : well , as another token of my gratitude , the cassadines have controlling interest in several pharmaceutical companies , and if you decide to go the antidepressant route , i will make sure that you get a lifetime discount . good luck , my dear . [ elizabeth sighs ] [ scene_break ] jason : you know i ca n't fix what 's broken between lucky and elizabeth , but i can take better care of my life . [ sighs ] i appreciate what we have together , and i 'm very grateful for you because when things get really crazy , you keep me grounded , and that means a lot to me . sam : well , i feel the same way . i do . i mean , i 'm really grateful that we got a second chance . it 's so unexpected , jason . i just never thought that ... [ whispers ] so , what about that sauna ? jason : are you being serious about this ? you really want a sauna ? sam : yes , i do . it could be relaxing and take away all those muscle strains because , like , we do dangle from buildings and stuff , and i 've got to crawl through air ducts all the time , and it 's like , ow , it hurts -- jason : so you 're telling me it would actually help you do your job better ? sam : absolutely . yes . and your job . jason : and my job . sam : uh - huh . jason : i do n't know . i mean , sitting in a hot room with no windows does n't sound like a lot of fun . sam : oh , it does n't ? a hot room , no windows , wearing towels or less ? steamy ... jason : yeah , okay . sam : warm . i do n't know . it sounds pretty good to me . yeah . jason : sounds pretty fun . sam : mmm . honey . maybe we do n't have to wait for the sauna . oh . [ chuckles ] [ jason sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : hey . sonny : what are you two doing ? carly : uh , i convinced diane that we need to discuss your case . sonny : i 'm not in the mood for it right now , you know . carly : you need to get there , sonny . we need to work on your defense here . sonny : i said not now , please . carly : you okay ? sonny : i just got back from dante 's hospital bed . carly : is dante okay ? sonny : he do n't need me , that 's for damn sure . carly : so what i 'm hearing is , you opened a vein , and you bled for dante , and he rejected you anyway ? sonny : yeah . yeah . pretty much sums it all up . carly : all right . well , you can work on that . you can beat dante down . but you ca n't do it from prison . i know you have a lot on your plate right now , but you need to prioritize . you need to beat these murder charges , sonny . diane : i agree wholeheartedly with that . and to that end , i have formulated a plan . you are going to plead not guilty . i can not stress how vital it is for you to tell the court the truth , that you did not kill claudia . now , i can try to create -- sonny : you can stop right there , diane , because that 's not going to happen . [ scene_break ] [ dante exhales ] lulu : hey . look how good i am to you . i went by your place and picked up some sweats and shirts for you . dante : that was thoughtful . lulu : yeah . well , i do n't want to create any false hope or anything . you 'll be here for a while . but i thought you might be more comfortable in your own clothes . dante : thanks . lulu : ca n't leave you alone for 10 minutes . what happened ? dante : sonny was here . he was trying to -- ahem -- make me understand how he became the biggest crime boss on the eastern seaboard . it 's not a pretty story . lulu : i vaguely know something about him being physically abused as a kid . dante : i am pissed at my mother right now -- so much that i can barely even look at her . she does wrong , she has faults , but she would never -- like , no chance in hell would olivia falconeri let a guy who beat me stick around . i mean , first , she 'd probably smack him up the head with an iron skillet . then , she 'd probably run them over with her car . i mean , sonny 's mother , she kicked him out , meaning sonny . she sided with his abuser over her own son . lulu : does this change things ? dante : [ scoffs ] what , you mean , like , do i feel sorry for sonny ? i guess maybe i do , but not now . i feel sorry for who he was back when he got my mother pregnant . agent rayner : last chance , detective falconeri . tell me the truth about how you caught that bullet or turn in your badge .

[ scene_break ] diane : the evidence against you is circumstantial . sonny , there are arguments i can make , precedents i can cite , to discount most of it . in fact , in theory , depending on the judge we pull and the jury we empanel , i can create a hole big enough for reasonable doubt to creep through . sonny : if i deny killing claudia , and they find me not guilty , the case stays open . right , diane ? diane : technically , yes . there is no statute of limitations -- sonny : so that means the cops will keep looking , right , diane ? and they could find michael as the killer . that 's unacceptable . carly : you will beat the murder charges . we can protect michael . we have so far . sonny : too risky . too many variables . diane : sonny , if you plead guilty , i can try to spin self - defense . but our chances of winning on that are vanishingly small , especially in light of your stated lethal intent in front of a room full of witnesses just hours before claudia died . carly : are you listening to diane , sonny ? do you hear what she 's saying ? sonny : i do n't care what diane says . i 'm not risking michael . i 'm going to say that i killed claudia . end of discussion .

what have you done ? naturally , i was terrified . i needed to keep you calm , so i said the only thing that came to mind . i asked you what happened . you did n't answer me . instead , you dropped the gun and staggered off . i look toward my brother 's office , not knowing what to expect . i was terrified i might find julian inside , hurt or killed . i almost called the police , but i had to know what had happened to him first , so i went in . but it was n't julian . it was connie . sonny : we 've already had this conversation , morgan . morgan : will you just listen ? sonny : i get it . i get it . you 're in pain and you ca n't shut off your feelings for this woman because i ask you to . morgan : you did n't ask me . sonny : the jeromes are our enemy . not just mine . she 's a danger to our family and to your brothers . do you understand ? morgan : i understand , but it does n't have to be that . sonny : well , how does it have to be , then ? ! morgan : this is what i 'm saying ! ava does n't have to be against us . not when she can be with us . a.j . : you saw connie ? ava : right here on the floor , in a pool of blood . a.j . : then what ? ava : what else ? i got the hell out of here . a.j . : wait a second . she was still breathing when sonny came here . what are you telling me ? you just left her here to die ? ava : her eyes was closed , she was n't moving . i thought she was dead . connie was sonny 's girlfriend . if anyone found me there with her body , they would have started asking questions . questions that could have exposed julian . if sonny learned the truth about us before our protection was in place , sonny would have killed us both . all i knew was i had to get out . so i did . i left very quietly , and i went to find you . a.j . : you 're lying . anna : hello , it 's commissioner devane . i need you to do a bed check on a patient . heather webber . she 's right here . anna : are you certain ? scott : [ inaudible ] i 'm looking at her right now . she 's snug as a bug in a rug . heather : oh , son , you disappoint me . back in the arms of that hussy ? franco : you get out of my way or i 'll kill you . heather : what ? you talk like that to your mother ? franco : are you my mother ? are you ? is that true or is that just another one of your desperate lies ? heather : i do n't know what you 're talking about . franco : you are pathetic ! you would be pathetic if you were n't so good at survival . you 're a cockroach . that 's what you are . that 's your one true talent ! you 're a cockroach ! as soon as everyone thinks you 're dead , you just crawl away . heather : you 're comparing me to an insect -- your own mother ? franco : you are not my mother , are you ? how do i know ? how do i know ? the only person who told me is you . you -- you lie to everyone about everything . heather : no . not about this . i am not lying about this . you are my son with scott . franco : even i deserve a better mother than you . i reject you as my mother ! i reject you ! susan moore is my mother ! alan quartermaine is my father ! jason is my twin ! jason -- i love jason ! he taught me to love violence ! he did , not you ! you never gave me anything ! nothing ! carly : please . stop . stop . franco : i 'm gon na put you down , okay ? and then i 'm gon na pick you up . heather : what ? franco : i would love to slit your throat and watch you choke on your own blood . the woman that i love will never , ever look at me again like i 'm a monster . ever . i 'm gon na ask you one last time to get out of my way . fine . heather : oh , son ! have n't you ever heard the old saying ? never bring a knife to a gun fight . silas : so , one minute ava mentions nina 's will , and the next minute , that will shows up in the detective 's mailbox . sam : i know , i know . look , that was my first reaction , too , but the more i think about it , i do n't think it was ava . silas : oh , really ? sam : yeah , it 's just that her reaction to telling me about the will was n't very subtle , so why be hush - hush about it ? it 's not like it 'll make a difference if the police knows that she sent it or not as long as it moves the suspicion off of her and onto you . silas : she is a sociopath , sam . her reasons do n't have to make sense to anyone but her . sam : i get that . i understand that . and my mother and i , we questioned her . we really did , and she denied it . she denied putting that will in detective west 's mailbox . silas : did you expect her to say something else ? sam : no , but i guess it was the way that she said it that really kind of confused me . she was n't being her normal self . it was almost the opposite . like she could n't wait to get out of there . silas : could have been a tactic . sam : my gut says no . silas : well , i trust your gut . [ keys jingle ] silas : so , if ava did n't drop off the will , who did ? alexis : i hope you 're not too comfortable . silas : please tell me you have some good news for me . alexis : detective west made one more attempt to get scott to charge silas and got rejected . sam : rejected ? so , does that mean he 's out of here ? alexis : it means you are free to go . a.j . : no . no , your story does n't add up . ava : actually , it does . a.j . : what about the gun ? because i know i dropped it before i got on that elevator . ava : you did n't let me finish . i saw the gun lying where you left it . i picked it up using a handkerchief . and put it in my purse . and then i got the hell out of here fast . a.j . : well , if you picked the gun up here , how the hell did it wind up in my family 's boat house ? ava : for all i knew , connie 's shooting was an accident . but there 's no way sonny or the police would have believed that . until i could find out what actually happened , i did what i had to do to protect you . a.j . : oh , to protect me ? yeah . [ scoffs ] ava : kiki loves michael . michael loves you . a.j . : pure motives . ava : then i went back to the house to find you . and i did . passed out from your bender , with michael trying to revive you . a.j . : no , i was n't out that long . why did n't you stay ? ava : well , my brother called with an emergency and i had to go . so i told michael to sober you up and i rushed out . a.j . : wait a second . that still does n't explain how the gun wound up -- ava : that is when i tried to get rid of the gun . was halfway to my car when i remembered i still had it on me . i could n't risk the police finding it . you would have been sent up the river -- if sonny let you live . so i run around the back of the house . i was in a hurry . so , instead of dropping it right in the lake ... i threw it as hard as i could toward the water and took off . i could have sworn i heard a splash , but apparently that was just wishful thinking . instead , the gun landed in the bushes -- honestly , a.j . i was just as surprised as anyone when it turned up . sonny : ava working with us ? no , it does n't make any sense . morgan : what do you mean ? it makes perfect sense . sonny : no , it does n't . morgan : yeah , it does . she wants to ditch her brother and come over to our side . sonny : oh , come -- what are you talking about , morgan ? morgan : will you hear me out ? okay ? sonny : go ahead . morgan : all right . i told ava that we had no future together as long as she was working with julian against us . she made the decision right there . sonny : just like that ? morgan : yes . to be -- to be with me , she is willing to turn her back on her brother and help us take him down . sonny : okay , i just got one question . how the hell am i supposed to believe that ? a.j . : how do i know that you did n't pick the gun up after i dropped it and come back in here and shoot connie yourself ? how do i know that you did n't take that gun and plant it at the boathouse to frame me ? nathan : so , heather webber is secure at miscavige ? anna : they confirmed it . does n't add up . nikolas : hey , anna , i need to speak with you . it 's urgent . anna : of course . what is it ? nikolas : franco approached -- actually spoke to my son and his friends . anna : oh . where ? when did this happen ? nikolas : about a half an hour ago in the park -- spencer , emma , and cameron webber all saw him . anna : where are they now ? nikolas : britt and robin and elizabeth took them back to elizabeth 's house . anna : okay , i need to speak to the children myself . will you get the s.w.a.t . , secure a perimeter around the park . nikolas : listen , i do n't think franco is there anymore . in fact , there 's good reason to believe that he might be at wyndemere . anna : why would he go there ? nikolas : according to spencer , franco took off when the kids told him that heather webber was on the grounds . anna : heather ? nikolas : i know it sounds crazy , but spencer recognized heather 's picture from a photograph in the newspaper and claims that she 's been lurking around the island claiming to be a stablehand . i do n't know . nathan : how could she be at two places at once ? scott : spencer ! do you have anything to add here ? luke : hutch -- do n't trust hutch . he 's a killer . scott : listen . we 're in a bit of a mess here , so i need you to be as lucid as possible , okay ? for once in your miserable life , can you do that ? luke : watch out for sally . sally 's a man , man . she 's got -- [ groans ] is that all you got , baldwin ? scott : [ sighs ] anna : detective west , we 're going to wyndemere . nikolas : i should probably go with you . anna : oh , no . i would prefer it if i did n't involve any civilians . is there any staff at your house ? nikolas : yes , just alfred , but he 's probably asleep by now . are you sure you do n't need a guide or anything ? anna : trust me . there 's only one place a rat like heather is gon na hide out on spoon island . and i know the catacombs like the back of my hand . franco : [ gasping ] carly : [ crying ] no ! franco ! franco : [ groaning ] heather : oh , you , quiet ! carly : no ! heather : this is between me and my son ! franco : oh , god ! oh , god ! no ! leave her out of this , please ! heather : all those terrible things you said to me -- you were trying to hurt me . well , this is how i hurt you . oh , yeah . franco : [ groaning ] carly : you 're his mother . you 're pathetic . you 're a liar . heather : oh , you , quiet ! carly : you are -- heather : just shut up ! carly : you 're awful . franco : aah ! heather : oh ! franco : [ coughing ] heather : oh . franco : [ gasps ] ava : well , how do you explain that only your fingerprints were found on the gun ? how could i possibly have wiped my prints away , but not yours ? a.j . : okay , well , why did n't you just -- just let me pay for what i 'd done , then ? ava : i did it to protect you . sonny : ava 's playing you , son . morgan : no , she 's not . sonny : no , she 's got you wrapped around her little finger . morgan : dad , if you would just let me explain . sonny : let you what ? explain ? try to convince me that she 's gon na go against her brother and throw in with us after everything she and her brother have done to try and take me down ? she 's just gon na switch sides ? morgan : yes . for me . which that 's what you ca n't believe , is n't it ? sonny : that 's not what i said . morgan : yeah , but that 's what you 're thinking , though . sonny : no , what i 'm thinking is she would n't do that for anybody , not even for you ! i love you . you 're my son . and i want you to be happy . but not if it 's gon na affect the rest of the family , and i do n't want you to try to guilt me into welcoming this -- this -- this snake into the fold . she can not be trusted ! morgan : yes , she can , dad ! i would stake my life on that . sonny : how about michael 's life ? how about dante 's life ? would you bet on that ? what about mine ? morgan : i 'm just asking you to talk to her . sonny : i already know what she 's gon na say , son . morgan : just look her in the eye and ask her . you 're good at reading people . you 're great at reading people . just ask her and find out for yourself whether or not she can be believed . a.j . : you know , ava , you 're a lot of things , but sentimental ? that ai n't one of them . you do n't give a damn whether i rot in a prison cell for the rest of my life . ava : that 's not true . a.j . : come on , ava ! you have no use for me . as a matter of fact , when i was fighting for control of elq , you were on tracy 's side . ava : by the time connie was killed ... tracy had washed her hands of me . the news about kiki not really being a quartermaine had come out . tracy had all the shares she needed , and she kicked me to the curb . do n't you remember ? i told you all about this when we ran into each other at the floating rib before you came here to confront connie . you may have given up , but i was n't ready to let go of elq . i just needed another in . a.j . : so i was just a backup plan . ava : you may have been deposed as c.e.o . , but you still had your shares . and i knew that together we could find a way to turn the tables on tracy . but not with you in prison . so i had to keep you out . so , you 're right , a.j . i did n't protect you for the children . i protected you for me . a.j . : well , that 's at least a little more plausible . ava : unfortunately , ditching the gun was n't enough . the entire murder was caught on tape by security cameras . so , if i was gon na save you , i had to destroy that footage . luke : is this miscavige ? scott : well , that 's a good guess . what was it ? the padded walls ? gave it away ? luke : how long have i been in here ? scott : i do n't know . i 'm not your social secretary , spencer . luke : well , are you here to get me out ? scott : [ sighs ] luke : huh ? scott : what ? luke : are you here to get me out ? scott : i 'm here for meat loaf monday ! i 'm looking for heather . luke : you thought i was heather ? scott : well , this is her room . you know , with that wig on , you do kind of resemble her a bit . you know , crazy - eyed and everything . luke : yeah . scott : wait , hold on a second . you know what ? i think -- luke : oh , do n't do that . scott : yeah , yeah , yeah . i got to have something to tweet about . you do n't really take good pictures , do you ? luke : oh , i 've looked worse . scott : uh - huh . luke : well , get me out of this ! scott : all right , keep your wig on ! luke : we have got to get to carly before heather kills her . scott : heather has carly ? luke : yeah . scott : so he was telling the truth . luke : who ? who ? scott : never mind . how do you know that heather has carly . luke : [ sighs ] carly was in tracy 's boathouse . i went down to get her . and i almost had her out of there , but then one of heather 's goons clocked me and they stuck me in here . we 've got to get her ! heather 's gon na kill her if i do n't get to her first . heather : you 've got to be punished ! franco : [ grunts ] carly , get out of here ! carly : no ! franco : carly , go ! heather : you 're gon na watch her die . franco : no ! heather : yes , you are ! franco : not if i kill you first . [ groans ] aah ! aah ! carly ! oh ! heather : they ca n't hear you , carly . carly : somebody help ! heather : no one could . no , they ca n't hear you now . carly : oh , my god . heather : i 'm gon na teach you a lesson . this is all for you , my son . all for you . franco : [ groans ] no . [ groaning ] heather : [ gasps ] please . let me finish . anna : heather webber , you are under arrest . feel free to resist . heather : you should let me finish . silas : thank you for standing by me and doing everything you could to get me out of here . alexis : well , as happy as i am to take credit where it 's due , and you are getting billed for this , by the way , the person that you should be thanking is this one over here . silas : thank you , sam . sam : um ... you 're welcome . and you 're gon na get billed for this , too , by the way . silas : oh . alexis : all right , you two . if you 'll excuse me . silas : well , speaking of my bill . sam : mm - hmm . silas : how will i ever repay you ? sam : well , i , um ... could take it in trade . silas : yeah ? i owe quite a lot . i think maybe i should get started now . anna : you have the right to remain silent . if you give up that right , anything you say can and will be held against you ... nathan : i need medevac for two patients and prisoner transport . anna : ... one will be provided for you free of charge . do you understand your rights as i 've explained them to you ? heather : as if it matters . nathan : medevac 's on the way . carly : there 's so much blood . there 's so much blood . heather : how 's my baby ? anna : how do you think he is ? you shot him . heather : it 's carly 's fault . she drove me to it . carly : get her out of here ! heather : i have to stay with my boy . carly : he 's not your boy ! heather : do n't you say that . do n't you ever say that ! anna : what he is is one in a long line of your victims , and we 're gon na get a statement from him . if he lives . nathan : you need to keep pressure on it . carly : i 'm trying . franco : maybe not that much pressure . that 's a lot of pressure . carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . franco : it hurts . it 's okay . it 's okay . carly : you 're gon na be okay . look at me . look at me . franco : i have to be okay . carly : yeah . franco : 'cause ... you really need me . carly : i do need you . i really need you , so i need you to stay with me . hey ! i need you to stay with me . ava : if i was gon na keep you out of prison , i had to get my hands on the security footage from connie 's office before the police did . so i came back here and i broke into the security office . i did n't have much time . i had to get in and out quickly . i took everything i thought would place either one of us at the scene . then i rigged a flood to cover my tracks . and got the hell out of there . unfortunately , i was in such a hurry to get out undetected that i missed a disc -- the very disc that scott baldwin tried to enter into evidence at your trial . a.j . : that disc that showed me coming into the office with a gun . sonny : ava 's proven she ca n't be trusted . morgan : i trust her . does that not count for anything ? sonny : well , we 're working on that one , morgan . morgan : all right , fine . i deserve that . but our family deserves peace . sonny : uh - huh . morgan : and that 's what ava wants . she wants that so much she 's willing to sacrifice her brother to get that . sonny : no , what she wants , morgan , is you . morgan : okay , and if it means taking down julian and protecting everyone we love , what difference does it make ? sonny : she 's working on an angle . that 's what she 's doing . morgan : what if you 're wrong ? what if by the slightest -- the slightest chance this could end the war between our families ? that 's worth checking out , is n't it ? that 's what i 'm saying . just talk to her . find out for yourself . there 's no harm in that . sonny : [ sighs ] where is she ? morgan : she 's at the metro court , waiting for us . sonny : all right . morgan : great ! that 's great . sonny : you 're gon na stay right there . morgan : why ? sonny : because if i 'm -- look . i do n't want her working you . if i 'm gon na do this , i 'm gon na do this alone . a.j . : did you see the footage ? ava : i did . i was hoping that the shooting was an accident . that you 'd been waving the gun around trying to scare connie and it went off . but i had to know for sure . i played them back . and i saw what you did . there was no sound , but you were clearly irate . and irrational . and connie was afraid for her life . i saw it happen , a.j . i saw you murder connie . a.j . : [ sighs ] luke : it 's just a matter of sleeves and straps , man . scott : yeah , but this is -- this is not an ordinary straightjacket . harry houdini himself must have designed this thing . luke : harry houdini -- just get me out of here ! scott : [ grunting ] luke : come on ! scott : i ca n't . it 's gon na take the jaws of life to get you out of that thing . luke : well , do n't just give up ! scott : hey ! hey , hey , hey ! come on ! let us out of here ! luke : yeah , i 've always found that when you 're locked up in a rubber room , the best thing to do is just yell . scott : hey -- you got a better idea ? luke : i got nothing ! scott : i did n't think so . luke : yell away ! scott : let us out of here ! we do n't belong in here ! i 'm a public official ! luke : help ! alexis : so , the family manse now is not only housing uncle victor , it 's housing heather webber , it 's housing chupa -- nikolas : chupacabra . i do n't understand why you 're so surprised . mean , the place attracts a wide variety of freaks and nut cases . alexis : [ chuckles ] yes , it does , but not usually at the same time . [ clears throat ] so , did anna mention what heather webber is up to this time ? nikolas : no , not a word . but if franco and heather are involved , it 's a good bet that carly is , too . carly : s - she killed somebody else . some poor guy . she dragged him around the corner and took him back into the tunnels . anna : oh , my god . is there no end to your madness ? is there ? heather : just tell me about my son . nathan : paramedics just radioed in . they 're on their way down . anna : all right , we 're gon na need to leave them some room . let 's get her out of here . heather : no , i have to stay with my son . anna : no , i do n't . franco : i 'm not your son . i 've never been in your son and i 'm never gon na be your son . heather : that 's not true . you are my son ! you 'll always be my son ! franco , please ! please ! franco : hi . carly : hi . do n't try to talk , okay ? franco : no , i want to -- i want to talk . carly : you can talk later . not now . do n't try . franco : i have to tell you something . seems like a good time to tell you something . i just want to say thank you . carly : you 're the one who saved me . franco : yeah , i know . thank you . i love you . i did n't know what that meant . i did not know what that felt like . and you taught me that . thank you .

[ clank ] anna : what was that ? hello ? luke : looks like an alley cat or something tipped over a trash can . anna : okay . possibly . mason ? hey , okay , it sounded like there was somebody back there . can you go around there and have a look for me ? thanks . i have to get back to work now . luke : i know you do , and i 'm gon na let you go . i just need to say something first . mac : you know , frisco 's been out of sight and out of mind for so long , it never occurred to me that he 'd show up again . but i should have realized he 's always had a hold over felicia . he always manages to reel her in . lulu : [ scoffs ] well , maybe she 's learned to recognize the difference between the trappings of a romance and the reality of making a life with someone , like what she has with you . mac : oh , boring , stable bartender mac ? lulu : mac , who 's raised her daughters ! mac , who 's made her happier than she 's been in a long time ! she gets to spend time with maxie and work at the bar . she 's got a life . why would she give that up ? for what ? for a man who has let her down more ways than she can count ? frisco 's a flame . flames burn out . you 're a rock . that 's forever . mac : [ chuckles ] thanks for the reality check , lulu . i 'm sure there 's nothing to worry about . felicia : what do you mean you came back for me ? frisco : i love you . i always have . you know that . felicia : you love me . frisco : since day one . felicia : all the time that i chased after you , and you 'd dump me in these god- forsaken spots and just take off . i mean , is that love ? frisco : i was an idiot . felicia , i was lost , searching for something . felicia : you were doing your job . it 's an important job . you save people 's lives . but there 's no room for that , for family . you know that . you know that , and i know that . so why are you trying to change the rules now ? frisco : because i realize ... life 's about more than just a job . everything i ever wanted was right here . you . felicia : [ sighs ] do you realize all the other times you 've said that to me , the other apologies and the other promises that things would be different ? frisco : i made so many mistakes . i let you down . and i let the girls down . but i 'm back , and i want to start over , and i want to start over with you . and something tells me ... you feel the same way . lulu : you either send me my delivery by tomorrow morning , or i 'm gon na cancel our beverage contract with you . thank you . [ scoffs ] unbelievable . laura : oh , i 'm sorry . lulu : mom ! oh , my god ! mom ! laura : [ chuckles ] lulu : [ gasps ] t.j. : molly was with this guy rafe right before it happened . she saw the weapon . i mean , he was caught kneeling over his mother 's body . molly still defended him . she even went to see him in jail . shawn : oh , so that 's what you two were arguing about when you showed up after kristina 's arraignment . i had a feeling you were n't going too crazy over some `` russian novel . `` t.j. : you know , molly 's such a good person . and she does n't have it in her to tell a convincing lie . i mean , at least , not up until now . kristina : molls ? molly : kristina ? kristina : hey . i - i saw the light under your door and thought maybe we could talk . molly : um , why do n't we go to your room , and we can settle in there ? kristina : why ? we 're already here . molly : okay , but i have to warn you , my room 's a mess . kristina : yeah , knowing you , that means you have , like , three whole paper clips left on your desk . mcbain : hey , if there 's something going on with the case , i 'd like to know . dante : well , good . that goes both ways . mcbain : when have i ever cut you out of an investigation ? dante : let 's start with today . mcbain : okay . dante : all right . the surveillance cameras outside the cell show you talking to the kid , right ? mcbain : yeah . i told you i wanted to go over his story . dante : well , they also caught you when you came back and escorted him out of his cell . mcbain : i just told you i never went back down to the cell block ! dante : the surveillance video shows you leaving with rafe and officer carlson . mcbain : well , there 's a mistake somewhere , 'cause that -- that was n't me . let -- look , let 's just talk to carlson . dante : well , we ca n't do that . mcbain : why 's that ? dante : because he 's dead . molly : i thought you were gon na take a nap . kristina : i could n't sleep . how 'd you know i was hungry ? molly : wishful thinking . kristina : mm . molly : i mean , you 've barely eaten in weeks . kristina : no . you know why . i keep thinking about connie . what i did to her . molly : you had a bad moment . kristina : a bad moment ? molly , in that moment , i wanted her dead . you know , if i 'm capable of strangling connie falconeri , maybe anyone is capable of murder if they 're pushed hard enough . johnny : i ca n't change what i did , nor can i change how we met . starr : [ sighs ] johnny : but i do care about you . you 're an incredible person . starr : johnny , no matter what you say to me , no matter how nice or sincere , it does n't change how i feel or what i 've lost . they are gone now . johnny : you 're right , and i can not bring them back . but i can give you this . mcbain : carlson 's dead . what the hell happened ? dante : oh , he was murdered down at pier 52 . mcbain : murdered ? dante : yeah . mcbain : you said he was with the kid . where 's the kid now ? dante : well , the kid 's gone . he fled the scene . mcbain : you really think rafe could kill a police officer ? dante : actually , no . we 're pretty sure it was someone else . t.j. : okay , so , if rafe 's telling the truth that he did n't kill his mother , who did ? lieutenant mcbain ? shawn : what , mcbain ? no , no . mcbain is committed to the badge . i do n't see him killing anyone , least of all a defenseless woman . t.j. : but rafe swears up and down that he saw it happen , which means he 's lying , which means he did kill his mother , which means he should n't be anywhere near molly . and somehow she just does n't see that . shawn : but did n't you say he was locked up where he ca n't do much harm ? t.j. : she 's going down to the cells to talk to him . shawn : right . hey , you know our rules . no cell phones on pool night . come on . t.j. : i know . i know . shawn : look , maybe we could break it just this once . go ahead . give the girl a call . t.j. : what the hell ? frisco : admit it . you still love me . felicia : one thing has n't changed -- your ego . frisco : that 's not an answer . felicia : i 'm with mac . frisco : and that 's an excuse . felicia : no , it 's what is . i 'm not available . frisco : so you 're telling me that what you have with him is better than what you had with me ? felicia : that 's not a fair question . frisco : but it 's the only question , and i know the answer . mac 's a decent guy . he loves you , and you have a decent life , but you 're settling , felicia . you know it , i know it , and mac knows it . because i was n't around . and i do n't blame you . felicia : oh , my god ! some things never change with you ! frisco : i 'm not comparing myself to mac . he 's a good man . but , felicia , what we have is something special , and you know it . felicia : had -- past tense . and three - quarters of the time , it was an illusion , a romantic fantasy with no place in the real world . frisco : you do n't believe that . we were meant to be together . and we always will be . felicia : hello mac . luke : i did n't plan on falling in love with you . anna : [ chuckles lightly ] luke : you 'd been through a terrible loss , and i just wanted to be a friend . i just wanted to be somebody you could count on , somebody you could confide in . anna : you were . you were that . luke : but then when you got on your feet , it became more than friendship , at least , for me . look , we 're both very independent people . we 're both more than capable of going down this road on our own . but why should we ? why should n't we take the ride together ? anna : this is what i 'm trying to explain to you . i - i 've lost faith in my own judgment . you know , i ca n't make these kind of decisions right now . i 'm not in any kind of position to do that . luke : look , i want to fight for us . but i need to know that there 's something to fight for . so just be honest . have i already lost this battle ? lulu : i ca n't believe that you 're back ! are you okay ? laura : yes ! yes , i 'm fine . i saw the doctor before i left , and my levels are fine . i passed all my tests with flying colors . it 's just when i heard that you were gon na make me a grandmother , i just went straight to the airport . and so here i am ! [ laughs ] and look at you , my beautiful girl , so happy ! lulu : i am happy ! i 'm so happy ! and dante 's happy . and maxie 's ... showing a little . laura : oh , really ? it 's so exciting . i know how much you wanted to have a family , sweetie . lulu : does lucky know that you 're here ? laura : no , i do n't think he does . uh , you know , i get a postcard from him every month or so . but he never really got in the habit of checking in by phone . lulu : oh , he did n't visit you in paris ? laura : uh , no . i saw him last year in ireland . found him sitting in a churchyard , of all places . lulu : [ scoffs ] how did you know where to find him ? laura : it was part detective work and part sort of maternal instinct . um , but , you know , it was a really , really nice , long visit , and we talked about everything under the sun . and we even went back to this little village that your dad and i lived in when lucky was a little boy . lulu : wow . i 'm very happy that he got that time with you . laura : yeah . i 'm happy i had that time with him . and now i get to have time with you , the little mother - to - be . lulu : [ chuckles ] oh , my gosh . i just -- i feel like i hit the lotto ! both of my parents in the same place at the same time . laura : i know . lulu : does dad know that you 're here ? laura : no , he does n't . uh , i think it 's gon na be a big surprise for him . anna : i do n't want to talk anna : i do n't want to talk about this right now . luke : that does n't sound good . that sounds like you 're breaking up with me . anna : oh , we have n't been together for quite some time . luke : is this because of lavery ? anna : not the way you mean . seeing him again has reminded me of what it was like when i was first with him , when we were in love -- the intensity , you know ? god , i just used to look at him , and i could n't breathe , i could n't think . and ... i just needed to be near him . luke : that was such a long time ago . anna : of course it was ! i know . and things might not even work out between him and me . but it just ... it 's made me feel the way i used to . i want that again . i want to feel that way again if i can . i want to feel that once - in - a - lifetime thing that i had with duke . well , that y - you had with laura . laura : so , how 's your dad ? lulu : exactly the same . uh ... he was shot in a turkish prison . he 's okay . but , uh , with stunts like that , i 'm not sure i trust him to babysit . laura : you turned out all right . lulu : 'cause of you . laura : is he seeing anyone ? lulu : um ... anna devane , sort of . laura : `` sort of `` ? what do you mean `` sort of `` ? lulu : i - i do n't know where they stand . why ? laura : [ chuckles ] mac : i know i mix a mean martini , but somehow i doubt that 's why you 're here . frisco : oh , do n't sell yourself short , mac . you 're a good man . felicia and i were just talking about -- felicia : we were talking about maxie and her attitude and how frisco just seems to think that he can just show up and just forget about everything that happened in the past . mac : i do n't know . i mean , i was the one who told maxie and georgie that your leaving was not a reflection on them . i was the one who told maxie and georgie that they were wonderful , special , and worthy of love . i told maxie and georgie about your important work and the lives you were saving . i do n't know . somehow ... somehow there was always this hurt behind maxie and georgie 's eyes the never completely went away . i think when you -- when you do that kind of damage , when you value someone 's love so cheaply , they may not be inclined to forgive . starr : johnny , why are you doing this ? johnny : you deserve it . starr : you trying to buy my forgiveness ? johnny : [ scoffs ] that 's not what this is about . i know it ca n't make up for anything . but i want you to have it . i want you to ... i want you to do something good with it . molly : feelings are n't facts . you can feel like murdering someone , but that does n't make you a murderer . i mean , it 's not like you 're a hardened criminal like johnny zacchara . kristina : johnny 's always been pretty decent to me . molly : yeah , i used to like johnny , too . i mean , i knew he was supposed to be dangerous , but i always thought deep down he would never hurt someone . but i was wrong . kristina : do n't say that . molly : well , i 'm sorry , kristina , but after what johnny did to starr 's family , he deserves to be in pentonville . kristina : yeah , well , johnny 's not the only one heading to pentonville . looks like i am , too . mcbain : you got a suspect in carlson 's murder ? dante : well , there was a witness . a nurse from g.h . , she saw someone standing over the body with a bloody murder weapon . mcbain : he was n't shot ? dante : no , he was stabbed with a strange metal weapon -- cross between a dagger and an arrow . mcbain : just like rafe 's mother , alison . okay , so the nurse -- she was able to positively i.d . someone . who ? dante : you , john . mcbain : the nurse claims she saw me kill a cop . dante : she says she saw you at the scene , standing over the body with the murder weapon . mcbain : you recover the weapon ? dante : yeah . right here . mcbain : it 's just like the weapon that was used -- dante : no , that is the same weapon . mcbain : dante , that 's not possible . that weapon 's down in the evidence room . dante : well , someone removed it . mcbain : someone removed it . well , then you check the footage , all right ? if someone signed out for it , they should be there . dante : yeah , way ahead of you . so as you can see , it 's a pretty clear picture . molly : how can you be going to pentonville ? i thought the whole point of pleading to a lesser charge was so that you would n't go to prison . kristina : i wo n't be an inmate , but i 'll be working at pentonville as part of my suspended sentence . molly : at pentonville ? are they crazy ? you do n't belong there . kristina : well , the judge said community service . molly : i thought they were gon na let you work on some adolescent hotline or something . i do n't know , maybe pick up trash in the park . kristina : i guess the judge thought it 'd be a good idea for me to see what prison life is really like . molly : no wonder you could n't sleep . kristina : actually ... i 'm starting to feel pretty sleepy after all . i think i 'm gon na take that nap . um ... thanks . talking ... it really helped . molly : yeah , anything i can do . you know that . are you gon na eat that ? molly : yeah . i mean , i will later . unless you want it . kristina : no , no . i was just gon na take the tray down to the kitchen . molly : no , i got it . you go get some sleep . kristina : okay . thanks , molly . molly : good night . okay , she 's gone . i 'm really sorry about the sandwich , but you can start on this one , and i 'll go make you another . rafe : look , molly , i ca n't stay here , okay ? it 's not fair . i ca n't cause problems for you and the people you care about . molly : you let me worry about the people i care about . t.j. : i signed up for auto alerts from the sun . it says that rafe 's out of jail . shawn : well , let 's see what they 've got on their home page . [ sighs ] well , it 's not saying that he escaped . t.j. : it 's saying he 's `` at large , `` which does n't make him sound exactly innocent . shawn : it 's hard to tell what it 's saying . t.j. : maybe it 's enough to convince molly she 's putting her faith in the wrong guy . frisco : you make a good point about forgiveness . all i can do is ask . it 's up to felicia and maxie if they want to give me another chance . i was thinking maybe tomorrow night we could have dinner , the three of us . mac : felicia and i have plans . felicia : we do ? mac : yeah , well , i was , uh , gon na surprise you , but , uh ... there 's a valentine 's day party at the haunted star . felicia : thank you , mac . i would love that . mac : [ chuckles ] luke : no , no . laura has her own life in paris . we 've been over for a long time . anna : yeah , but have you ever felt what you felt with her with anyone else ? no , you have n't . luke : it was a remarkable time in my life . anna : right . luke : but it 's over . and it 's been over for years . the worst possible thing is to try to recapture the past . it poisons the present . anna : right . luke : and it twists your memories so that you ca n't even recognize them anymore . life moves in one direction , slim -- forward . i pride myself on appreciating my past and then letting it go and moving on . anna : i think maybe you and i -- we have ... different expectations for our lives , you know . and is n't it better that we realize it now ? you know , do n't you think so ? luke : so this is goodbye . anna : you helped get me back on my feet after i lost robin , and i 'll never forget that , and i 'll always be grateful to you for that . luke : you do n't have to be grateful . i was happy to do it . i was happy just to be near you . you are an amazing woman . anna : oh , god ! no , i 'm not . can we still be friends , anyway ? can we ? luke : sure . yeah . we 'll always have the metro court , wo n't we ? [ both laugh ] anna : it 's not quite paris . [ sniffles ] luke : [ sighs ] laura : i just want our family to be happy . that 's all . and if anna makes your dad happy , we -- starr : lulu , we need to talk ! i -- i 'm sorry to interrupt . i ... lulu : um , can we do this later ? my mother and i are catching up . starr : you 're laura ? laura : yes . hi . and you are ? starr : hi . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i 'm starr manning . i know that that was very rude , but i -- my late fiancé read me this story about port charles -- something about a left - handed boy and freezing the town and luke and laura . you 're a legend . you were star - crossed lovers . laura : yes , we were . we still are . lulu : i 'm sorry . can we talk later ? laura : you know what ? why do n't you two talk now ? because i really need to unpack , and i need to get some sleep . lulu : okay . you 're staying at the -- laura : metro court . i will call you tomorrow . lulu : okay . laura : okay . lulu : yay ! i love you . i 'm so happy to see you . laura : oh , me too , honey . me too . nice to meet you . starr : nice to meet you . sorry about that . lulu : [ sighs ] uh , so what 's up ? what do want to talk about ? starr : johnny zacchara . pretty good mood for someone with a 20-year bit . johnny : i 'm not thinking about me . thinking about somebody else . starr : johnny is being transferred to pentonville as we speak . but he asked me to come see him . lulu : he was tortured by what he did . and i know it 's no excuse . but i know that he was very sorry . starr : and he said that this is n't about buying forgiveness , but i 'm not sure if i believe him . seemed very important to him , so i accepted . lulu : accepted what ? starr : johnny gave me his half of the haunted star . i 'm your new partner . lulu : [ gasps ] mac : [ chuckles ] frisco : valentine 's day . yeah , i never was much of a valentine 's day guy . it 's just a day to me . if you 're really in love , what 's one day compared to a lifetime ? mac : how ironic coming from you . no , the idea is just to simply show appreciation for the one you love . give them a special day , a special acknowledgment to let them know they come first with you . felicia : [ chuckles ] and as a girl who loves champagne and chocolate , i am very grateful for the person who invented valentine 's day . [ chuckles ] frisco : talk to maxie , please . pick a date . i 'd like to have that dinner together . i 'm not giving up on either one of you . happy valentine 's . felicia : promise me you 'll ignore him . shawn : the police are asking for help finding rafe . anyone who 's seen him is supposed to call in . t.j. : well , then i better warn molly he 's out there . shawn : here . t.j. : all right . rafe : this is great . [ clears throat ] molly : i 'm glad you like it . rafe : look , as soon as i 've eaten , i 'll take off . molly : no , you wo n't . rafe : technically , i 'm a fugitive . molly : there 's nothing technical about it . you walked out of police custody . you 're definitely a fugitive . rafe : what i mean is i do n't want to drag you down with me . molly : my mom 's an attorney . she 's not afraid of the cops . neither am i . [ cell phone rings ] molly : t.j. ? t.j. : molly . molly . uh , are you okay ? molly : i 'm fine . why ? t.j. : rafe is out of jail . molly : yeah . i know . t.j. : it 's all over the news . the police are looking for him . they ca n't find him . maybe i should come over and check on you . molly : no , no . um ... it 's late , and my sister 's supposed to be sleeping . i ca n't have people over . but thank you for calling . i 'll see you tomorrow . [ sighs ] rafe : and now i 've got you lying to your boyfriend . molly : i did n't lie to him . rafe : but you will . molly : if i have to . rafe : okay , look , you are n't the kind of girl who would do this , molly . you do n't lie . molly : how do you know ? rafe : your room . your sister was right . you 're neat . you 're on time . you 're nice . molly : these are bad things ? rafe : no . they 're perfect . i 've never been neat or on time in my life . molly : you 're nice . rafe : i do n't know how nice i am . i 'm putting you in danger . molly : how ? rafe : two people have been killed . molly : even more reason for you to stay here . rafe : while you lie to everyone ? molly : maybe hiding you is wrong , but it feels right . so until we can figure out a way to keep you out of danger , you 're staying . anna : so , what is the time line on this , exactly ? dante : right before john took rafe out of his cell with carlson . mcbain : hey , look , i do n't care what 's on the surveillance camera , all right ? i did n't take a weapon out of the evidence room , and i sure as hell did n't take rafe out of his cell . dante : except it kind of looks like you did . mcbain : hey , i do n't know what 's going on , all right ? i ca n't explain those images . but you know me . i did n't kill anyone ! anna : i 'm sorry , john . i ... you know , with the footage and the eyewitness , i do n't have any choice . you 're under arrest . laura : hey . it 's me . yeah . i 'm in port charles .

[ chuckles ] not with you . with julian . apparently a.j . did n't get the memo that my brother 's been evicted . and now with tracy running elq , a.j . thought that he would take his chances with julian and see if maybe there was a position in the publishing wing of the jerome family . is n't that right ? sam : you 're not gon na tell me you 're guilty , are you ? silas : no . sam : good . good , because i think i 'd have to kill you . silas : i did n't do what they 're accusing me of . but i feel guilty . sam : about what ? silas : the will . nina leaving me the money , not telling you about it . sam : okay , well ... any idea why you did n't ? silas : yeah . but even the short version is n't very short . sam : well , then , it 's a good thing that you are out of the slammer , because guess what we have ? plenty of time . alexis : what are you doing here ? julian : did n't you get my message ? alexis : no , but i was hoping you got mine when i sent your call to my voicemail . julian : all right . just hold on . i -- [ sighs ] can i just come in for a little bit ? i really need to talk to you . alexis : there 's nothing to talk about . we 're not getting involved . the end . julian : it 's not about that , okay ? i do n't care about that . well , i do care about that very much , but this is n't about us right now . alexis : so , what is it about ? julian : my relationship with my son . lucas : excuse me . i 'm looking for my sister , carly jacks . cubicle one . lucas : thank you . bobbie : she 's home ! your sister is home ! lucas : [ sighs ] yeah . come on . let 's go see for ourselves . we have you on pain meds and iv fluids . we need to get you rehydrated . carly : what about franco ? he 's being treated in the other cubicle . someone will be down shortly to take you to x - ray , but from what i can see , you should make a full recovery . [ monitor beeping ] bobbie : [ gasps ] oh , honey ! thank god ! carly : mom . bobbie : i thought i might never see you again . carly : i 'm okay . i 'm gon na be fine . lucas : [ chuckles ] leave it to mom to get the sympathy when you 're the one in the hospital . bobbie : [ laughs ] carly : lucas ? lucas : yeah , well , do n't sound so surprised . i had to come down from seattle just to make sure my big sis was okay . but this adventure is above and beyond , even for you , carly . bobbie : we were so worried . lucas : yeah , let 's put it this way -- it 's a good thing i was here to drive mom to the hospital when the cops finally told us you 'd been found . bobbie : [ chuckles ] carly : franco saved me . franco , stay with us . we just got to take care of a few things , then we 'll take you up to surgery , get that bullet out of you . sound good ? franco : [ weakly ] sounds good . where 's carly ? start a central line . franco : is she okay ? someone has to save carly . franco ? franco , can you hear me ? call blood bank to initiate a massive blood transfusion protocol . alexis : i 'm not sure what i have to do with your relationship with lucas . julian : you do n't . [ sighs ] i ran into him earlier . suffice it to say it did n't go very well . alexis : shocking . julian : [ sighs ] look ... i just really need someone to talk to , okay ? alexis : you chose the woman who ignores your phone calls ? julian : well , i could n't think of anyone else . i know . [ chuckles ] depressing . alexis : what about your sister ? she seems nice . julian : uh , yeah , well , we 're not on the best of terms right now . besides that , ava is n't the greatest parent or listener . alexis : and you think that i am both of those things . julian : this is n't what you think . alexis : what do i think ? julian : i 'm not here to make some kind of a move on you . alexis : oh . julian : now , can we please go in ? i 'm freezing ! please . alexis : fine . but you ca n't stay long . julian : [ sighs ] silas : you know , some people say marriage is always about the money . that 's not true . when i first met nina ... we did n't even -- i did n't even think about that . maybe i was being naive . but i loved her . i did n't give a damn about her family 's wealth . you know , neither did she . we never even -- we never even talked about it , you know ? it did n't even occur to us to get a prenup . sam : but it occurred to her family . silas : oh , yeah . you know , they thought so little of their daughter that they assumed i had only married her for her money . sam : that must have been uncomfortable . silas : especially when she put me through medical school . [ chuckles ] she thought they were gon na stone her for that one . sam : well , that could n't have been easy . i do n't know how you dealt with that . silas : yeah , i remember the accusations . they -- they took their toll , but the hard part for me was i never really understood why they felt that way about me . sam : until ? silas : until nina went into the coma and i saw the will . sam : okay , did you have any idea that nina had planned on leaving you everything ? silas : no . i did n't even know there was a will . knowing nina , she probably did that , just to get back at her parents . sam : [ chuckles ] silas : it did n't matter , though , you know , those -- just one minute i thought ... maybe they 're right . maybe i like the money . maybe i liked it so much that , you know , somehow , subconsciously , i had pushed her into doing what she did . sam : what are you talking about ? by having the affair with ava ? silas : no . i lost my wife . you know , when your world starts crumbling down like that , your mind , it starts playing tricks on you , starts telling you these crazy things that -- i do n't know . things like -- maybe -- maybe this is your way , this roundabout way , of getting something that you really wanted . sam : come on , silas . you know that 's not true . even if you -- even if your wife tried to take her own life , you could have never predicted that . it 's a crazy , horrible , tragic accident . nothing more . silas : i knew that in my head . sam : but in your heart ... silas : i felt responsible . michael : just so we 're clear , you 're telling me that ava 's gon na flip on her own brother . morgan : yeah . michael : she 'd really do that ? morgan : she 's doing it right now . michael : just because she told you that does n't mean -- how do you know she 's not playing you ? morgan : come on , dude . you think i 'm that stupid ? michael : that 's not what i 'm saying . look , it 's obvious how much you care about ava , and you talk about how she understands you and everything . but just because you want to trust her does n't mean that you can . morgan : look , mikey , ava loves me . she loves me , i love her . what is so hard to understand about that ? michael : it 's just a move like that -- going against your family -- you know it 's huge . morgan : it 's the only way we can be together . i laid it out for her . she agreed . so , you can believe whatever you want , but it 's true . michael : [ sighs ] she really convinced you , did n't she ? morgan : now she 's just got to convince dad . sonny : is it true ? a.j . , you sniffing around , trying to get with jerome ? ava : imagine what that would have done to michael , to your mother , for them to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you did murder connie in cold blood . a.j . : yeah . yeah , i need a job , all right ? not that it 's any of your business . sonny : why would n't you work for my worst enemy ? it was n't enough to take connie 's life , now you 're gon na work with the scum that tried to take me down ? is that what you 're gon na do ? a.j . : yeah , with my big , bad , publishing job . sonny : it 's not gon na work , 'cause it never does . ava : i think it 's best if you leave . a.j . : no reason to stay . ava : i am so sorry about that . i know he 's the last person you 'd want to see . sonny : you know what ? people are walking around free . there 's nothing i can do about it . on the other hand , morgan said that you were legit . are you willing to stab your own brother in the back ? alexis : what exactly happened between you and lucas ? julian : i found out that he was gay . carly : it was heather , not franco . bobbie : it 's okay , honey . anna told us . lucas : wait , heather 's the one who took you ? she was gon na take you and make it look like franco killed you , but somehow franco figured it out ? carly : he found me . and she shot him . lucas : i 'll tell you what . i 'll go check , see how franco 's doing . but you have to promise to lie here and let mom fuss over you . bobbie : do n't you worry . carly is not going anywhere . carly : thank you . [ monitor beeping ] bobbie : g.h . is one of the best hospitals in the country , and they will do everything they can for franco . carly : i have a bad feeling , mom . pressure 's dropping . hang three units and order up a cryo . he 's in v - fib . damn it . he 's crashing . charge to 150 . [ defibrillator charging ] clear . again . [ defibrillator charging ] come on , franco . again . [ defibrillator charging ] alexis : so , you did n't know ? julian : you did ? alexis : sure . before he left for seattle , he was out and proud . julian : [ scoffs ] alexis : what ? julian : i just do n't know what there is to be proud of . alexis : you do n't want your son to feel good about himself ? julian : of course i do . alexis : ah . you just do n't want him to be gay . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : why do n't you approve ? julian : well , it 's not my place to approve or not . alexis : but that 's exactly what you 're doing . julian : look , i 'm not thrilled , okay ? if i had the choice between having a straight son and a gay son , i 'm sorry , i would choose a straight son . sue me . alexis : careful . you 're talking to a lawyer . julian : well , i was hoping i was talking to a friend . [ sighs ] alexis : look , i know you did n't raise lucas , but he is your son , and you 're gon na have to accept him for who he is . julian : [ sighs ] just like that ? alexis : just like that . julian : okay . [ chuckles ] let me -- let me ask you a question . alexis : okay . julian : molly comes to you and she says , `` mom , i 'm a lesbian . `` you 'd have no problem with that ? alexis : no . i would hate the thought of her facing any kind of adversity or judgment as a result of that , but , no , i would have absolutely no problem having a gay child . so why do you have a problem ? julian : [ sighs ] sam : pizza ! silas : pizza ? w -- when did you order pizza ? sam : you know , i 'm actually pretty efficient . when you were in the shower , i talked to my mother and i managed to order pizza . silas : you 're an angel . i 'm starving . sam : good . now feast your eyes on this . silas : what is that ? sam : pizza . silas : no , i know it 's pizza . what 's -- what 's that on top of the pizza ? is that pineapple ? sam : [ chuckles ] yeah , that would be pineapple . what 's wrong with pineapple ? silas : as a fruit in a salad with other fruit , there 's nothing wrong with it . on top of pizza ? [ gags ] sam : what are you talking about ? the other half is pepperoni . silas : as god intended . sam : here , just take your piece of pizza and eat it . it 's so good . mmm . what ? silas : i 'm sorry , i -- i - i ca n't believe you just -- i ca n't believe you just ate that . sam : why would n't i eat this ? do n't -- do n't do that . do n't yuck my yum . silas : hmm ? sam : it 's something my brother used to say . well , we both -- you 're just supposed to keep your mouth shut . silas : no . i 'm yucking your yum big time . sam : you do n't even know what you 're missing . silas : [ chuckles ] i 'll take my chances . sam : yeah ? silas : mm . sam : try some . silas : mnh - mnh . sam : no time like the present . silas : mnh - mnh . sam : come on . silas : mnh - mnh . sam : try it ! silas : i thought there were rules against torture in this country . sam : what are you talking about ? you 're being such a baby . i just got you out of jail . i let you wear my robe . try the pizza . [ laughing ] try it . silas : did you just call me a baby ? sam : i did . you 're being one . eat it . silas : one bite . sam : huh ? what 'd i tell you ? it 's delicious , is n't it ? it 's really good . my favorite . silas : if i 'm being honest ... sam : mm - hmm ? silas : ... that might be the worst thing i 've ever tasted . sam : you 're lying . silas : no , i 'm being totally honest with you . i hate it . sam : for real ? silas : for really , really real -- forever real . sam : oh , wow . then i think you should try it again . silas : mnh - mnh ! mnh - mnh ! sam : one more time . silas : mnh - mnh ! sam : try it ! you said you were hungry ! silas : i am . sam : then try it ! silas : i am hungry ! sam : yeah ? silas : i 'm starving . morgan : i 'm sorry . i just -- i still can not believe that kiki helped franco escape . what was she th -- what was she thinking ? michael : that franco is innocent . morgan : he 's not innocent ! does she not care that franco is the reason you got raped ? michael : does n't matter . morgan : it does matter . it does matter , mikey , and -- look , i get that you do n't want to talk about this , because if it happened to me , i probably would n't want to talk about it , either , but kiki makes this huge deal about loving you , and then she 's just gon na ignore the worst thing that 's ever happened to you ? because why ? because it 's more comfortable for her to , you know , pretend like franco was n't involved ? michael : she wants to think that he 's changed . morgan : that 's a bunch of crap , dude ! they found a knife with his prints and our mom 's blood on it . michael : i know , i know . franco says that he was framed and kiki believes him . she believes in him . morgan : did you ask why she believes in him ? morgan : all she said was that there was more to it . morgan : to what ? michael : the story , i guess . she would n't say . morgan : michael , listen to me . if kiki knows something , dude , we need to pull that out of her . michael : i tried . morgan : well , then , try harder ! this is mom we 're talking about ! michael : you do n't think i know that ? ! [ cell phone ringing ] michael : [ sighs ] it 's grandma bobbie . morgan : oh , god . michael : hey , grandma . bobbie : michael ? honey , you need to get to the hospital . michael : why ? did something happen ? bobbie : something wonderful . your mother 's been found , and she 's going to be all right . michael : [ sighs ] okay , thank you . morgan : what ? what is it ? michael : she 's okay . morgan : are you sure ? michael : mom 's safe , man . morgan : [ laughing ] no way ! aw , man ! ava : turning against my brother is n't something i relish doing . but i have n't got a choice . sonny : because of morgan . ava : we love each other . you may not agree , but there it is . if the only way for us to be together is for me to leave the jerome organization , then so be it . sonny : so , that 's all it takes -- a suggestion from a teenager and , boom , you 're gon na sell out your family ? ava : it 's not as if julian and i are close . sonny : well , you could have fooled me , 'cause you guys -- you 're , like , hanging all over each other . it 's just -- it 's really creepy . ava : [ chuckles ] that 's the point . sonny : to be creepy ? ava : [ laughing ] no . to present a united front . sonny : ah . ava : but the reality is julian and i were n't raised together . we did n't even meet until we were adults . my relationship with him is purely business . sonny : so , you have no problem turning your back on that business . ava : i was never the equal partner that i wanted to be . not with julian always putting me in my place . now that he 's found his long - lost children ... i 'm barely a blip on his radar anymore . sonny : sounds like somebody 's jealous . ava : no , no . [ sniffles , chuckles ] i sound practical . julian 's made it clear that he puts their interests ahead of mine . it 's not exactly what you want in a partner , is it ? sonny : how did julian put his kids ahead of you ? ava : sam 's convinced him that i had something to do with silas clay 's case . he all but accused me of a frame job . [ chuckles ] why on earth would i waste my time framing a man for a crime he did n't commit ? a.j . : [ sighs ] not really sure what i 'm doing here . i just ca n't seem to shake it . is ava telling the truth about what happened that night ? you 're the only one who could tell me . god , i just wish i could talk to you for a minute . connie : i guess this is your lucky night . a.j . : connie ? connie : yeah . a.j . : how is -- how is this -- how is this happening ? this is n't happening . this is n't happening . this is all in my head . this is n't real . connie : boo ! oh ! wa - hoo ! maybe it 's all that vodka you 're swilling . some people see pink elephants . you just happen to see a dead fashion editor . a.j . : so , then , you 're still dead . connie : dead ? yeah . as a doornail . shot at close range right in my office . a.j . : yeah , but by who ? i mean , was it me or was it ava ? ava : you 're still not sold , are you ? sonny : you and your brother did everything in your power to bring me down , including using my son against me . ava : well , it could be said that you did that all on your own . sonny : morgan 's angry , you know , no question about it , but he would n't have joined your organization if you two were n't pulling the strings . and he definitely would n't have infiltrated mine . ava : using morgan as a spy was not my idea . it was julian 's idea . sonny : you knew nothing about it ? ava : nor the threats that julian made against morgan 's family . when i found out , we had a big blow - up about it . sonny : you did ? ava : i hated julian manipulating morgan in that way . you have ever right to be wary of me . but my feelings for your son are real . i would never ... never do anything to hurt morgan . sonny : but you ca n't say the same about me . you say you love my son , but that does n't give me a reason to trust you . ava : then let me give you one . give me the chance to prove myself . sam : okay . this is the last thing i 'll say . silas : please -- no more of the stupid pineapple talk . sam : you do n't even know what you 're missing . silas : no . i do know what i 'm missing , and i could n't be happier . sam : all right , fine . suit yourself . silas : i mean it , you know ? sam : i know . pineapple is the devil . i get it . silas : no . right here in this bed with you , eating pizza -- i 've never been happier . sam : mm . me too . it 's been a really long time since we 've been able to be around each other without some sort of a crisis going on . when was the last time ? new year 's , i think ? silas : i hate to burst your bubble . sam : do n't do it , then . no , no , no . stop . do n't . no ! no ! silas : we 're still in crisis . i mean , i have n't been charged , but ... sam : [ sighs ] you still have all the legal stuff hanging over your head . silas : for whatever reason , the cops are not -- not gon na let go of this . sam : well , then , you know what we have to do ? we 've got to get the goods on ms . jerome . julian : my views on life and the world -- i got most of those from my father , and he drilled into me what it was to be a real man , you know ? and in the mafia ... [ sighs ] ... that comes with a very strict definition . alexis : i can imagine . julian : never really hit me until i was in high school and i wanted to try out for the school play . my father told me that that kind of stuff was for sissies . his exact words were , `` real men do n't wear makeup and prance around on stage . `` alexis : that 's too bad . did you have any other male role models ? julian : nope , not really . ca n't say that i did . and my only other exposure to homosexuality was this distant cousin we had . he was a hairdresser . i used to see him once and again at family gatherings . alexis : did you like him ? julian : he was fine . but on the way home , my father would make these disparaging comments about him . to victor jerome , people like that were freaks . no , being gay was a weakness . it was n't something to be proud of . so , me , i , you know , i just wanted to make my father proud . alexis : well , i know what it 's like to have difficult parents . believe me . but you are a parent now . you 're a role model . and at some point , we do n't get to blame our parents anymore . you have to put it in another compartment . julian : i do n't know how to do that . alexis : you 're gon na have to learn . otherwise you 're not gon na have a relationship with your son . julian : [ sighs ] michael : gram , where is she ? where 's mom ? bobbie : she 's right in here . she 's gon na be so happy to see you two ! michael : oh , mom ! morgan : they said you were all right ! michael : it 's so good to see you . carly : oh , i missed you so much . morgan : we were freaking out . [ sighs ] michael : mom , what did franco do to you ? carly : it was n't franco . it was heather . michael : heather webber ? bobbie : the police said heather took your mother . she was trying to frame franco . carly : franco found me . bobbie : franco rescued carly , and then heather shot him , so he 's in the trauma room right now . lucas just went to check on him . lucas : [ sighs ] carly : how is he ? how is he ? ! alexis : i 'm just curious . how does lucas feel about you being in the mob ? julian : [ chuckles ] not good . alexis : did he say that ? julian : mm . alexis : how did you respond ? julian : that i 'm more than just my business . alexis : mm , you see how that works ? and lucas is more than his sexual orientation . you want your kids to overlook this huge part of your life and just see you for you , yet you 're not extending the same courtesy . julian : lucas made the same point . alexis : smart kid . julian : mm . smart kid who wants nothing to do with me now . alexis : so fix it . julian : oh , sure , yeah , just magically be okay with the fact that my son is gay . alexis : no one is asking you to change how you think overnight , but you can change your action . julian : [ sighs ] and how am i supposed to do that ? alexis : you apologize . and you tell the truth . you tell him that this caught you off guard and that you did n't react well , and regardless about how you feel about homosexuality , you love your son . you do love him , do n't you ? julian : you really think that 'll work ? alexis : it 's worth a shot . julian : you 're right . alexis : i know . julian : [ chuckles ] i 'm really glad i came here tonight . and i do feel a whole lot better . alexis : well , that 's just the scotch talking . julian : no . it 's not . michael : you went to check on franco ? lucas : yeah , when i got to his cubicle , he was crashing , but the doctors stabilized him , but it 's still touch - and - go . they 're getting ready to take him to the o.r . now . carly : i got to go see him . michael : whoa , whoa , whoa . mom , mom , take it easy . morgan : no , you 're hooked up to all that stuff still . bobbie : listen to your sons , honey . you really do need to rest . lucas : yeah , looks like you 're outvoted , sis . carly : i need see him . michael : mom , mom , mom , mom , mom , there 's nothing you can do . okay ? the doctors will take care of him . you need to take care of yourself . after all , if he did save you , he wants you to get better , right ? carly : franco did n't give up on me , michael . i ca n't give up on him . silas : nina 's will had to have come from ava , you know ? no matter how badly she denies it , you know , it 's just too coincidental . one minute she tells you a will exists , the next thing you know it shows up in west 's mailbox . sam : yeah , i know , but , look , something just does n't feel -- silas : she 's simultaneously trying to build a case against me while covering her own ass . sam : he seems ... silas : what ? sam : never mind . silas : no , he seems what ? sam : [ sighs ] i do n't know . he seems to , like , actually genuinely care about getting justice for nina . i mean , i know he thinks that you 're guilty , i get that . but ... i think he actually cares about what happened to her , and the thought of her just -- silas : being trapped in that bed for the last 20 years -- he hates that . here 's a newsflash -- i hate it , too . in that sense , we both have something in common . we both want to find out who did this to nina and make them pay for it . sam : okay . ava covered her tracks by making the pharmacist lie . maybe we can get to him and have him tell the truth . that would make her look really guilty . silas : how do we get nakamura to change his story ? sam : easy . we visit him . go to new york city . ava : no one knows the ins and outs of julian 's business better than i do . i can deliver you what you want most . sonny : what 's that ? ava : my brother on a silver platter . you do n't trust me . and i respect that . i 've given you no reason to . sonny : i 'm glad we both agree . ava : until now . sonny : [ sighs ] what do you got in mind ? ava : wait and see . sonny : i 'm not big on surprises . ava : i think you 're gon na like this one . and the best part ? you do n't have to do anything . you can just sit back and relax and watch me work my magic . you want julian . let me give him to you . ca n't we at least start there ? connie : ava ? what does ava have to do with this ? a.j . : she was in your office the night you were shot . i ran into her after i ... connie : you murdered me ? a.j . : so it would seem . she said she saw me do it on the security footage . connie : `` she says `` ? what do you mean she says ? did n't you see the footage ? a.j . : no , she -- she burned it . connie : why ? a.j . : to protect me . the same reason that she ditched the gun . connie : wow . she really went out of her way to clean up after you , huh ? a.j . : yeah , i thought it was strange , too , but then she pointed out that she burned her bridge with tracy , and she figured if i owed her a favor , maybe it might pay off . connie : well , how do you know her story is n't just a cover ? ava could be the true culprit . a.j . : i asked her the same question ! connie : and ? a.j . : she pointed out that when the gun was found , my fingerprints were the only ones on it . i mean , if she had shot you , then -- connie : her fingerprints would have to be on it , too . it 's a real toughie . a.j . : connie , why are we even talking about ava when you can clear this whole thing up right now ? please tell me what really happened that night . bobbie : hi . lucas : oh , hi . bobbie : you all right ? lucas : yeah , carly 's safe . why would n't i be all right ? bobbie : it has been an eventful day , has n't it ?

[ knock on door ] alexis : honey ? molly , why is the door locked ? [ doorknob rattling ] alexis : molly ? lucy : oh , doc , are you all right ? are you okay ? kevin : do you care ? lucy : yes , i care . i - i - i suffered completely when you -- you took that blow . i think -- i think it hurt me more than it hurt you . kevin : i seriously doubt that , lucy . lucy : but you came back . doc , i ca n't tell you how much it meant to me that you came back and you wanted to help me and you swore that you were on my side . kevin : and look at the thanks i got . one of your co - escapees cracked me over the head . do you know i had to go to the hospital ? lucy : oh , my god . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . i had no idea they were gon na do that to you . anna : he thinks that todd hit him . is that right ? kevin : a force like that -- no offense , ladies -- could only come from a man . lucy : well , not necessarily so . do n't count that fruit loop heather webber out . heather : [ grunts ] todd : what are you doing ? i was here first . heather : be quiet . he 's out there . todd : who 's out there ? heather : john mcbain . do n't make a sound . mcbain : should you even be down here ? do n't want to get you in any trouble . sam : let 's focus on you . my mom said that she was up most of the night working on the case . mcbain : i have to remember to thank her . sam : from the looks of it , it does n't look like you got too much sleep , either . mcbain : no . sam : is it true -- what i read in the sun ? is there really that much evidence against you ? mcbain : i would n't have believed it if i did n't see it with my own eyes . sam : so there 's actual footage of someone that looks like you , or -- mcbain : a guy that looks like me took the weapon that killed alison barrington right out of the evidence room . sam : was it shot from the back ? mcbain : no , no . you see his face . you see his face , and then you see him right over there , and he takes rafe out of his cell and leads him right down that corridor . sam : what about the nurse from g.h . ? mcbain : she identified me as the man she saw kneeling over bud carlson as he bled out . sam : with the same weapon that killed alison barrington ? mcbain : this guy -- he 's -- he 's a dead ringer for me -- you know , the way he dresses , the way he walks -- everything . he 's got it down . sam : yeah , but -- okay , but it 's not you . mcbain : no . no , it 's not me . this is funny . this is weird . i ca n't tell you how many times i 've been on that side of the bars , listening to some perp go on and on about , `` hey , man , i 've been framed . it 's not me . i 'm being set up . `` i guess now it 's my turn . sam : no , it 's not . it 's just that that 's the theory . but you do have alison , who thought it was you , and -- and lucy , as well , thinking you are this vampire -- caleb morley . it does n't make any sense . mcbain : listen to me . you -- you forget the whole supernatural part of it , all right ? this guy that looks like me -- he 's real . he 's real , and he was here in the pcpd impersonating me . that 's the only way to explain this . sam : you know this looks really bad for you . they say the police commissioner tried to call you all night and you did n't pick up your phone . john , where were you ? sabrina : why do i have to talk to dr. webber ? patrick : because he 's the head of e.r . when something like this happens -- a potential mistake -- there 's an inquiry . sabrina : oh , my god . oh , my god ! this is it . i 'm fired . patrick : no , no , sabrina . it 's nothing like that . this is just protocol , all right ? so come on . i 'll go with you . hey . you 're gon na be okay . come on . hey , steve 's a good guy . he 's not gon na judge you . come on . steve : sweetie , i 'm going to keep you safe this time . i promise . olivia : it 's not you that i do n't trust . steve : i know . you have every right to be on guard . olivia : i 'm not just talking about heather , either . i - i 'm sorry to say this . i know that this sounds crazy . we 're getting married , for pete 's sake . i know that you love me . steve : okay . olivia : okay . but if i was right with the hallucination about heather , what about the one about the nurse ? steve : sabrina ? olivia : it was a very detailed hallucination . you were enjoying that shower just as much as she was . steve : liv , come on . olivia : i know . i know . but i 'm just saying , all of my visions have come true so far , or at least they 've had some kind of meaning behind them . why would this one be any different , huh ? steve : [ sighs ] can we talk about this later ? olivia : of course . i 'll just go back to worrying about the other woman in your life . heather : i do n't know what kind of a game he 's playing , but john mcbain was right there . todd : you need to have your eyes checked . he 's in a jail cell . heather : what for ? todd : he killed a cop . heather : well , he must have escaped . he was holding me close enough to kiss . todd : ew . heather : real close -- like this -- tight ! todd : okay . not that this is n't every man 's fantasy , but you need to let me go . i 'm waiting for someone . heather : who ? todd : okay , do you remember the last time we were together and you asked me where i was going ? and i said , `` like i 'd ever tell you , `` or something like that . do you remember that ? heather : yes . todd : well , it 's happening again . heather : i do n't understand this . if it were n't for me , you 'd be rotting in ferncliff . why wo n't you tell me what your plans are ? todd : if i tell you , will you let go of me ? heather : sure . todd : i 've chartered a boat . he 's gon na take me anywhere i want , no questions asked . heather : `` just ask for quint . `` todd : yeah . wait . how did you know that ? heather : because i read the same ad in the advocate . todd : oh , no . tough noogies . i hired him . heather : no , todd . i hired him . todd : oy vey . we 're gon na need a bigger boat . kevin : heather ? anna : yeah . lucy could actually be right . lucy : ah ! finally ! anna : heather 's capable of anything , especially assault . lucy : yes , and i was completely beyond upset with old heather . kevin : and you still took off . you just left me lying there . for all you knew , i was dead . lucy : i would n't do that . i did check to see if you were breathing , and you were okay . doc , please . please try to understand . i knew that todd and heather would just ditch me , whether i was gon na go with them or not , so i could n't stay there . i had to escape . kevin : because of caleb ? lucy : yeah , because of caleb . doc , you 're my big , strong guy . i know you 're perfectly capable of taking yourself , but rafe is not . he 's just a boy , and he was all alone . he had nobody protecting him . [ gasps ] oh , my god , anna . he has nobody protecting him . rafe is just out there , with caleb on the loose . kevin : oh , here we go . lucy : and caleb is impersonating an officer of the law ! anna : you do n't have to worry about john mcbain . lucy : `` i do n't have to worry . `` yes , i do ! we all have to worry ! he could be out there right now murdering rafe ! anna : no , he 's not ! john mcbain has been apprehended . he 's currently in a cell . he is no threat to rafe . alexis : molly , open the door right now ! come on . molly : sorry . i was just sleeping . [ sighs ] good morning . alexis : good morning . molly : you know i do n't have school today , right ? alexis : uh - huh . yep , i know . molly : i was hoping to sleep in . alexis : is t.j . in here ? molly : what ? ! no ! alexis : well , i remember what happened last time you locked the door . [ drawer opens , closes ] molly : mom , look at me . i swear to you , t.j. is not in my room , okay ? alexis : okay . why 'd you lock the door ? molly : i do n't know . i must have accidentally pressed it . so , please , what is this big emergency that dragged me out of bed ? alexis : sam dropped danny off this morning . can you watch him ? molly : yeah , of course . alexis : i would have asked kristina , but kristina 's doing community service . molly : mom , it 's okay . i 'm happy to do it . i love babysitting danny . alexis : thank you . molly : you just go ahead . do what you need to do . alexis : i 'd rather just sit here and talk to you . i 'm not very anxious to get to work , anyway . i got two people in lockup . you know , lucy cuckoo held the commissioner at gunpoint . and then this john mcbain -- he killed a police officer . and that was after he broke this rafe kovich out of jail -- you know , that kid that accused of killing of his mother . molly : oh , yeah . right . alexis : he 's still on the loose . mcbain : i was at the university . sam : what were you doing there ? mcbain : meeting with a professor . sam : okay . why -- why would -- why would you go there and meet with a professor ? mcbain : i had asked rafe to give me some more details about the guy he saw murder his mom . sam : the guy he says is you . mcbain : i wanted to know if there was anything that really stood out about this guy . and it took him a while , but then he realized the guy 's wearing a ring . sam : okay . well , a wedding ring ? mcbain : no . it was more distinct than that . he was able to describe it . sam : so you went to the university to find out more about it ? mcbain : exactly , and i had to wait around a little while 'cause the guy was teaching a class , and i had to wait for him to finish . sam : right . did you talk to him ? mcbain : yeah , for quite a while . sam : what 's his name ? mcbain : jay mosser . dr. mosser : excellent timing . i was just about to call you . come in , detective . caleb : please , call me john . kevin : this is good news . everyone 's safe . lucy : everyone is not safe . doc , please , do you really believe that bars and a cell can hold caleb ? he can do anything he wants anytime he wants , and nobody can stop him . kevin : except you . lucy : except me . we do n't even know . he could be out there right now , hunting rafe down , wanting to claim him . kevin : but you just said that caleb would kill rafe . lucy : yeah , he would . that would be his last resort . if rafe refuses to be turned , then he will . kevin : lucy , do n't start ... lucy : no . listen to me . alison was here . doc , the last thing alison did was come to this police station , and she was looking for me . she wanted help . she wanted an ally to try and hide rafe from caleb . kevin : even if you are right , that just proves that alison shared your delusion . that does n't make it true . lucy : no , no , no ! listen . caleb seduced alison . rafe is caleb 's son , and that is why he is going to try and get him and claim him . and that 's why -- oh , my god . that is why he allowed himself to be captured . anna : no ! mcbain is the focus of a detailed investigation . lucy : he 's not even using the alias anymore . do n't you see ? he does n't even care . he wants to take rafe , and he will kill anybody that gets in his way . molly : so , um , what 's gon na happen to john ? alexis : i do n't know . molly : well , do you think he 's guilty ? alexis : no . absolutely not . molly : so there 's no hard evidence ? alexis : oh , yeah . there 's a lot of evidence , most of which i hear is indisputable . molly : how are you gon na prove john did n't do it ? alexis : well , it would help if we could find that rafe kid . an eyewitness said she saw him on the pier when john allegedly killed this police officer . molly : i ca n't even imagine . that must have been really traumatic for him -- rafe , i mean . alexis : right . i do n't doubt that , and i 'm sure that he 's loathe to revisit it . however , as sole witness , he could shed some much - needed light . molly : maybe he 'll turn up . alexis : well , i hope so . all right . nice talking to you . i got to go . all right . when danny wakes up , it 's six ounces ... molly : ... of formula . alexis : good girl . oh , you 're the best . molly : it 's really no big deal . alexis : and i 'm sorry that i did n't trust you . it 's just that you girls give me so much reason to be paranoid . molly : it 's okay , mom . alexis : i love you . molly : i love you , too . rafe : look , i 'm sorry you had to lie to your mom , okay , but she 's wrong . john mcbain is a killer . sam : what did rafe say about the ring ? mcbain : it had this kind of crest on it ... along with a bat -- you know , the flying mammal kind . sam : the one often associated with vampires . mcbain : yeah , the one and the same , yeah . sam : well , when you mentioned this to the professor , he did n't laugh you out of the room ? mcbain : yeah , you would think , right ? but it turns out this , uh , this jay mosser -- he 's kind of an expert on the occult . sam : seriously ? mcbain : mm - hmm . he started showing me all these illustrations of rings that vampires wore through the ages , you know , in art and literature and all that crud . sam : wow . mcbain : yeah . he was able to work up a sketch based on rafe 's description . sam : did you get any answers ? dr. mosser : please excuse the mess . caleb : no problem . i love what you 've done with the place . dr. mosser : oh , i was meaning to ask , uh , is your inquiry into the ring part of that case i was reading about ? caleb : what case is that ? dr. mosser : oh , what was her name ? it 's some deranged woman -- attacked someone she believed was a vampire . caleb : i 'm afraid i 'm not at liberty to say . dr. mosser : well , she was clearly mistaken . there has n't been a vampire sighting here for years . caleb : do tell . dr. mosser : oh , here it is . the bat on the ring is common , but the crest is rare . caleb : hmm . dr. mosser : uh , yeah . it could be from a minor clan -- the julii . they were descendents of remus . caleb : the twin of romulus ? let 's see . if memory serves , their parents abandoned them , and they suckled from a wolf . dr. mosser : the julii were wiped out thousands of years ago during an inter- clanal war . but some vampire scholars believe a few survived , fleeing to a remote area of transylvanian alps in what is now romania . caleb : fascinating . and no one 's heard anything from them since ? dr. mosser : they 've been living in seclusion for generations . the last vague record we have of them -- from the last century , mind you ... caleb : that is pretty , pretty vague . dr. mosser : ... has them going by the prosaic name of morley . caleb : no kidding . dr. mosser : you think this is absurd , do n't you ? caleb : no , professor . not at all . dr. mosser : well , then , i think you 'll take me seriously when i tell you that the wearer of that ring embodies enormous power , and he wants revenge . todd : what have i done to deserve this ? heather : you want a list ? i 'm sure i do n't know the half of it . todd : i 'm pretty sure your list is longer than my list . heather : why do n't you get over it ? i 've already hired captain quint . todd : why do n't you get over it ? i hired him first . heather : well , we 'll have to share . todd : greedy bastard , letting us both hire him . where the hell is he , anyway ? heather : we 're not supposed to set sail for another hour . there 's something i need to take care of . todd : oh , yeah , what ? you 're gon na see your son at the hospital ? heather : as a matter of fact , i am gon na go see my son at the hospital . todd : oh , good . i think that 's a great idea . i hope it goes a lot better for you this time than it did the last time . [ whistling ] heather : todd ... todd : yes ? heather : ... that was in very poor taste , even for you . todd : true , nonetheless , right ? [ chuckles ] heather : okay , so i was planning on sneaking in and visiting steven lars , and now i -- i 've considered the consequences . todd : really ? that 's a first . heather : he 's probably still upset with me . todd : yeah , probably . you shot up his girlfriend , pushed her down a flight of stairs . two things not on my list , by the way . heather : yeah , well , if you 're such a paragon , then why did you have to hire a boat to smuggle yourself out of the country , just like i did ? todd : i 've been asking myself that . i 've been trying to figure out , how did i end up here in such a lonely , desperate situation ? and the only answer i can come up with is it 's all your fault . heather : mine ? todd : i was getting my life back , i was putting my relationship with my daughter back on track , i was about to launch a successful entertainment business . and then , tragically , one rainy night , i opened the door and saw you -- heather webber , lunatic baby switcher -- in a yellow slicker , and i was too traumatized to think straight . you took advantage of me . heather : i hope you did n't try to sell that story to the court . todd : why not ? it 's the truth . look , i 've done a lot of bonehead things in my life -- but nothing dumber than letting tea think that that baby was hers . and i only did that because you told me that sam did n't want that kid . heather : have you finished whining yet ? todd : i 'm not gon na finish whining till i get on that boat and get away from this town ! heather : well , if you want a speedy departure , you best not delay my errand . todd : why ? where are you going , anyway ? what 's so damn important ? heather : do n't you ever listen ? i 'm going to see my son . sabrina : i was in a rush because we were losing officer carlson . patrick : he was bleeding out in front of us . sabrina : dr. drake asked me to get phenylephrine and dopamine , and i checked the labels three times , just like nurse johnson always says . `` check thrice for me to stay nice . `` and i vividly remember doing that . patrick : i 'm sure she did . sabrina : then i found that vial on the floor . i realized i gave you heparin . i gave an anti - clotting med to a patient who was losing blood . steve : okay , let 's -- let 's not jump to conclusions . we 're still waiting for the autopsy results . they should be here any minute . patrick : we 'll know exactly what was in his system when he died . brad : is dr. webber up here ? i have the report he wanted . told me to put a rush on it . britt : from the death in the e.r . last night ? are you new ? i - i have n't seen you here before . brad : this is my first week . britt : wow ! i 'm dr. westbourne . you can call me britt . brad : oh . britt : welcome to g.h . brad : thanks . britt : do you have a name ? brad : sorry . i -- yeah . uh , brad -- brad cooper . britt : brad . mm . you do n't mind if i - i take a peek , do you , brad ? brad : uh , uh , is that procedure ? britt : [ chuckles ] do you want me to look it up ? brad : no , that 's not necessary . go for it . britt : thank you , brad . brad : no problem . britt : you did a very thorough job . oh , and -- and look . dr. webber 's right over there .

[ chuckles ] nikolas : how 's the wrist ? britt : it 's okay . just figuring out how to maneuver . nikolas : all right , well , spencer and i will give you all the help you need . just , uh , do n't push yourself , okay ? britt : it 's just a broken wrist . and it was such a silly , stupid accident . nikolas : oh , come on . do n't be that hard on yourself . it 's not all that uncommon to slip and fall in the snow . spencer : are we finished talking about the cast now ? nikolas : you 're being rude . spencer : and so are you . britt : hey . your father is never rude . spencer : i disagree . it 's valentine 's day . have n't you thought about what to get britt ? nikolas : dude . britt : i - i got kisses chocolates from you , and ... living here with my three guys is all the gift i need . spencer : lame . nikolas : spencer . spencer : i mean , it 's nice and all , but it 's not gon na cut it . come on , dad . you 're a prince . nikolas : so are you . britt : tell you what . i need to get ben bathed and changed , and i will leave you two to talk in private . nikolas : all right . i 'll help you carry him out . come here , bud . [ grunts ] britt : thank you . spencer : she 's hot . nikolas : okay , if by hot you mean , uh , attractive , then , yes , britt is very beautiful . okay ? but more important is her personality . spencer : duh . i would n't like her so much if she was n't so great to me and to you , too . nikolas : [ sighs ] spencer : so , how are you gon na show her you appreciate her ? nikolas : what would you think if i asked britt to marry me ? felix : this is britt 's fault . i ca n't believe i 'm letting the britch control my life again . elizabeth : your life ? felix : yes . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] felix : because of her , i 'm about to jeopardize the first real relationship i 've had in ... longer than i care to admit . not to mention , if brad finds out that i do n't trust him , we 'll be over before we begin . brad : what a shock . the mob father 's unable to accept his gay son . lucas : [ chuckles ] yeah , i should have expected that , right ? brad : eh , my adoptive father completely lost it when i came out to him . in fact , he was happy i inherited my dna from my bio - dad instead of him , that way my gay was n't his fault . lucas : that sucks . did he ever come around ? brad : eventually . [ sighs ] at least we talk now . maybe your father will come around , too . lucas : nah . it does n't matter . i do n't give a damn about him . brad : [ scoffs ] yeah , you do . lucas : i - i just do n't know what i 'm supposed to feel . you know , i mean , other than a dna accident , i have nothing in common with the guy . he 's got a criminal history a mile long , so why should it even matter what he thinks ? i - i -- [ groans ] i feel so confused .

[ clears throat ] had her on heavy painkillers last night . she was dehydrated , some cuts and bruises . they thought she had a fractured leg , but it was just a deep contusion . but -- but they said she -- she 'll be okay . kiki : heard franco got to her just in time . michael : yeah . he , uh -- he saved her life . sonny : can you give a minute ? i got to make a phone call . morgan : i guess you do n't , you know , fully trust me , yet , so that 's fine . sonny : morgan , i just do n't want you involved in some aspects of the business . that 's all . morgan : it 's cool . i 'm -- i 'm just gon na step outside . but ... you 'll see . i 'm right about ava . alexis : well , julian does have some antiquated views about sexual orientation . ava : yeah , tell me about it . i 've heard him expound on that topic . i 've never been able to talk any sense into him . alexis : well , i tried . and i - i think he may have heard me , which is why i came by . i wanted to see if he took my advice . [ cell phone rings ] ava : excuse me . uh , i have to take this . morgan , hi . morgan : hi . my dad told me about your talk . are you gon na have something soon to prove to him you 're ready to take down julian ? ava : i 'm working on it right now . morgan : i hope so . 'cause i - i really want to celebrate getting back together with you tonight , on valentine 's day . i ca n't wait to be with you again , ava . ava : i feel the same way . i 've missed your arms around me . alexis : you know , i did n't get that e - mail at all . my smartphone is n't being very smart . hey , you know what ? i 'm looking at a computer right now . let me see if i can get in on here . ava : hey ! what the hell are you doing ? michael : you were right . franco did n't kidnap my mom . kiki : even the police believed that franco was guilty . heather did a great job of pointing the evidence all in franco 's direction , so everyone jumped on the bandwagon . michael : except you . kiki : maybe it was easier for me to believe that he was telling the truth because i do n't have a bad history with him . and you do . so does practically everyone in your family . obviously , that clouded your judgment . michael : yeah . well , you know what ? it -- it did n't help that , uh , franco was n't truthful about heather 's threats or what he did to her . kiki : he was truthful about being innocent . and i kept telling you that . but you would n't listen to me , and i really wish that you had . i wish that you had trusted me . morgan : hey . um , i - i just called ava , and she 's already working on getting you something to use against julian , so ... you see ? she 's true to her word . sonny : morgan , can you really trust a woman who lied to her daughter about the identity of her father for 20 years ? morgan : dad , dad , ava 's -- she had her reasons , all right ? we both know that you 've lied to the family before when you thought that was the right thing to do . but that has nothing to do with my relationship with her . sonny : you do n't think it has anything to do with it ? morgan : no . sonny : did n't ava use kiki to lure you in -- to butter you up to work with the jeromes ? yes or no ? morgan : yes . yes , she did . but that turned into something different , okay ? she 's changed . all that stuff she did to kiki , dad , that was -- that was in the past . i mean , ava bailed kiki out of jail after kiki helped franco escape . sonny : okay , you want to focus on the future ? let 's -- let 's do that . uh , if ava comes through , what kind of life are you gon na have with your ex - mother- in - law ? i know you 're all passionate about everything , but once you settle in , right , what kind of future are you two gon na have ? alexis : relax , will you ? i was checking my e - mail . honestly , i do n't care enough about you to hack in to your computer . ava : oh , i find that hard to believe . but this is n't my computer . it 's julian 's . he 's downloading some files , and i know he would n't want you messing with it . julian : do you mind if we , uh , talk ... alone ? brad : is that what you want ? lucas : yeah . it 's cool . julian : so , uh ... how 's carly ? lucas : she 's been through a rough time . but the doctors say she 's gon na recover . julian : well , that 's good . lucas : yeah . though i suspect that the reason you 're looking for me is n't to talk about my sister . julian : you 're right . look , i wanted to , uh , apologize . um , when you said that you were , um ... lucas : gay . julian : right . look , i was being a jerk . and i hope that you 'll ... forgive me . lucas : i can accept your apology if you can accept me for who i am . brad : hey . uh , oh , oh , were you waiting for this , uh , paternity test ? elizabeth : yes . thank you . brad : uh , uh , uh . not so fast . nikolas : britt and i were just getting used to living together without some , uh , major crisis going on . we were n't sure if it was gon na work out , but it has , better than expected . spencer : i told you . nikolas : uh , yes . i know . you 're a genius . spencer : what were you so worried about ? nikolas : [ sighs ] well , britt and i , uh , have both lived some ... complicated lives . and we were n't looking for love when we first met . but she needed help , and i was there when things went haywire and ben was kidnapped and , you know ... spencer : no joke . i 'm really glad you got ben back . nikolas : yeah . me , too . so , anyway , britt and i ... got to know each other through crisis , right ? but then i realized how strong and smart and funny she was , and ... you know . look , i know it 's -- i know it 's really soon , but ... that 's the way -- spencer : dad . does she make you happy ? nikolas : yeah , she does . spencer : then you have my blessing . go for it . dante : when you left , i was , uh , empty . i did n't think it was possible to actually feel that bad . the baby was gone , then you were gone . all i could do was go to work and bury my head in cases . i - i probably did more overtime in the last two months than i did in the entire year . [ voice breaking ] anything to stop me from coming home , sitting on the couch , staring at the wall , and ... thinking about what i could have done differently . lulu : why ? why ? i was the one that was wrong , not you . dante : no , but you know what ? 'cause i was wrong , too . i kept saying all this stuff -- that she was n't biologically our child and she was n't ours to keep ... 'cause i thought i had to be strong ... you know , instead of just telling you how much -- how much i miss being a father ... and how much i - i ached for that little person . lulu : [ sniffles ] come here . elizabeth : is there a problem ? brad : [ chuckles ] yeah . obrecht is on the war path . i 'm being forced to do everything by the book in triplicate . and i ca n't seem to find any of these names on the hospital records . so -- so who 's this guy that wants a paternity test ? elizabeth : it 's dante . dante falconeri . kiki : i wish that you would have tried to believe that franco was innocent or at least just tried to see it from the other side . michael : i - i - i thought you said you understand why i could n't trust franco . kiki : i do understand why you do n't trust franco . i do n't understand why you would n't trust me ... or trust my judgment and believing that franco was telling the truth . michael : trust you . trust you after -- after you lied about hiding franco in my apartment ? kiki : wow . i thought it was our apartment . michael : it is . look , there was a warrant out for franco 's arrest . he was the prime suspect in my mom 's disappearance . her life was on the line , and dante , my brother , the cop -- he asked you if you 'd seen him . kiki : i know , but i knew that the cops would n't give franco a chance . michael : they -- they might have if he told the truth . kiki : he was telling the truth . he did n't take carly . he did nothing to hurt her . michael : nothing to hurt her ? kiki , heather was escaping from miscavige on a daily basis , making threats against my mom , and franco never warned my mom . he -- he just stabbed heather . kiki : yeah , because he was protecting carly . michael : he never called the police . he never warned them that there was some crazy woman with a murder history in his hotel room with a knife . he just dumped her body in -- in an unmarked grave . why ? kiki : it was complicated . michael : no , no . because he did n't want anyone else finding out that he killed again ... not after he got his brain tumor removed and suddenly became a changed man . kiki : he is a changed man . and he did n't tell anyone because he knew they would n't believe that he was innocent . [ sighs ] michael : then -- then he tried to cover it up , right ? he tried to cover it up , but heather was n't dead . she was out looking for revenge . kiki : how was he supposed to know that ? even when i told him that i went to see heather at miscavige , he said that it was impossible because ... michael : wait . that -- that was the something else that you could n't tell me . franco told you that he killed heather . and you knew there was a big difference between him telling you that he killed heather and her supposedly being in her cell at miscavige . kiki : that 's why i had to help him escape , so that he could figure out what was going on . michael : you still do n't get it , do you ? you caused a distraction that helped franco escape . you probably helped him get free of his handcuffs . that 's aiding and abetting -- felony charges . you can do serious time . kiki : so , what ? ! your mother is alive . if franco had n't escaped , if i had n't helped him , she would be dead . did you ever think about that ? ! sonny : do you really want to trust a woman who would sell out her brother ? morgan : yeah . i trust her even more because she is willing to give up her family for me . she 's willing to give up her business with julian for me . she 's loyal to me . that 's what i 'm saying . i 'm more important to ava than julian is . julian : i 'm trying to accept you , lucas . i 'm sorry . [ chuckles ] i want to . truly , i do want to have a relationship with you . but i have to admit that it 's , um -- it might take me some time to process all of this . and i am sorry for the way i reacted . [ chuckling ] you definitely -- uh , definitely caught me off guard . i 'm gon na share something with you , not because it 's an excuse but because it 's the truth . i grew up in an environment where my father was very conservative , to say the least , especially when it comes to stuff like this . i just grew up thinking that his closed - minded attitudes were right and then i automatically just started thinking the same thing without even really thinking about it . so , um ... regardless of what i think of ... homosexuality now and my feelings on it ... you are my son . and i would really love to , uh -- i 'd really love to get to know you . lucas : i accept your apology . julian : [ sighs ] thank you . thank you . lucas : [ sighs ] i have to say i 'm surprised . why the sudden turn around ? julian : um , let 's just say that , well , i had somebody tell me the error of my ways . lucas : well , maybe you should listen to that person more often . julian : maybe . ava : check your e - mail someplace else , will you ? i 'm busy . alexis : okay . would you at least tell me where your brother is ? ava : i heard him on the phone with the hospital . he 's trying to get some information about carly . alexis : thanks for the tip . it 's a pleasure . ava : as always . ciao . [ sighs ] can i really do this to julian ? lulu : oh , i could n't stand being away from you . i was so lost . but i was ... afraid to come home . i was ... afraid to face my grief . and i should n't have been , because ... you 're here with me . [ sighs ] and now what scares me the most is how close i came to losing you . dante : no , you did n't come that close . [ smooches ] i would have fought like hell to keep you . lulu : oh , thank god for that . [ chuckles ] i love you , dante . dante : i love you , too . nikolas : all right . spencer : can i see the ring you 're giving britt ? nikolas : well , i have n't picked it out yet . i wanted to talk to you before i made another move . spencer : maybe great - uncle victor has one . he has a lot of fancy old things to give away . nikolas : yeah , you 're right . he probably does . but i do n't want to give britt just any -- any old ring , you know ? besides , with our family , you never know what heirlooms are cursed . spencer : seriously ? nikolas : yeah . yeah . trust me . the cassadines have a long and , uh , twisted history . i do n't want to risk it . we need to -- we need to pick out a ring that 's special just for britt . spencer : we ? nikolas : yes . yes , we . i need a wingman to advise me on the perfect one . are you gon na help me or not ? spencer : look at jewelry ? nikolas : yes . come on , man . i need you . spencer : for britt , i 'll look at jewelry all day long . she 's that awesome . nikolas : [ chuckles ] i 'm glad you feel that way . 'cause not everyone thinks so highly of britt . spencer : like who ? brad : uh , detective falconeri wants a paternity test using someone else 's name ? elizabeth : yes . the lab at the pcpd is still really backed up , so dante asked if i could run this for him for an investigation he 's doing . that 's why you could n't find the names in the computer , 'cause it 's not a g.h . patient . brad : oh , uh , dr. obrecht does n't want us to do any more tests for the police . uh , to quote frau doktor , `` the incompetent scarecrow , `` that would be commissioner devane , `` can run her own tests . `` elizabeth : oh . i did n't know . brad : but since i ran it before checking the records ... what 's the harm , right ? i mean , work 's already done . so , can you deliver this to detective , uh , falconeri ? or should i deliver it ? felix : no , not you . i mean , you 're busy , right ? elizabeth : it does n't matter . i can do it . brad : oh , great . thanks . there you go . felix : you got a minute ? brad : for you ? always . so , uh , what you got to tell me that miss webber over there could n't hear ? felix : [ chuckles ] i just wanted to , um -- what are you doing tonight ? brad : oh , well , i do n't know . what 's -- what 's tonight ? felix : only the night of a thousand expectations . brad : [ chuckles ] christmas eve . felix : very funny . would you be my valentine date ? i 'll cook you dinner . uh , i want to make up for what i did to you . brad : wait , what you did ? what did you do ? felix : when sabrina needed me , i stood you up . brad : oh , that . that -- that was no big deal . but i 'd love to go out with you . felix : well , this would be more of a stay in . i mean , i can cook only at my apartment . brad : works for me . felix : good . i promise to make sure that no one gets in our way tonight . brad : neither will i . lucas : [ sighs ] alexis : julian . julian : alexis . alexis : there you are . i 'm glad i found you . i wanted to see , uh , if you were able to smooth things over with lucas . julian : yes . yes . actually , i , uh -- i think i may even have a chance to have a relationship with my son . and , uh ... i owe that all to you . lucas : i just wanted to let you know my dad did apologize to me . yeah . and you were right . i do care about him , what he thinks about me . it , uh , feels good to know that we might actually get to know each other , that at least he 's willing to try . brad : i 'm happy for you . lucas : thank you . [ chuckles ] so , uh ... any chance you might want to come out and celebrate with me tonight ? brad : not tonight . felix is making me dinner . lucas : oh . okay . well , um , maybe ... later in the week or -- brad : not any other night , either . i mean it , lucas . i - i like you . and i empathize with your situation . but i 'm serious about felix . it took us a [ chuckles ] long time to get to this point , and ... i do n't want to mess it up . so , please , no more sexy selfies , no more ... accidental one - night stands . if you need a friend , i 'm around . if you need more , i 'm not available . lucas : got it . brad : [ sighs ] okay . lucas : hey . happy valentine 's day . brad : same to you . julian : so , how did you know how to find me here ? alexis : i went to your sister 's . actually , ava and i had a little bit of a run - in . julian : no good need goes unpunished . what 's ava 's problem today ? alexis : had a little bit of a work issue , so i needed your computer . i did n't think you 'd mind , and she went ballistic and said you were downloading files and that you 'd be furious if i messed it up . julian : she said that , huh ? i was n't downloading any files . morgan : ava . ava : morgan . morgan : see , dad ? i told you she 'd come through . sonny : can we see what she 's got , first , morgan ? ava : i have this -- all of julian 's confidential files . michael : you two risked my mother 's life by withholding information . now , that makes sense that franco would do that , because he 's a psychopath , but you -- you lied to my face when my mom 's life was at risk . kiki : i was the one who was trying to help save your mother . michael : by supporting franco . kiki : why ca n't you just believe that you were wrong about him ? michael : okay , look , i - i was wrong about franco kidnapping my mom , but none of this would have happened if she would have just stayed clear of him . kiki : so now it 's franco 's fault what his mother did ? heather is the one who kidnapped your mother . heather is the one who almost killed her . heather is the one who set up franco , michael . and now franco is fighting for his life because he did break out of jail to save your mother . michael : okay , look . i - i 'm grateful that franco rescued my mom . i am . but every time that franco had a choice , from heather 's first threat all the way up until the end , he chose to run , he chose to hide , to save his own ass , and you chose to back him . kiki : [ scoffs ] franco is just as much of a victim as your mother was , and if you ca n't see that , then you ca n't see anything . britt : hey . where are you two going ? nikolas : we will be back soon with , uh , a very big surprise . [ chuckles ] hey , ben . um , listen . do n't let your mom take any other offers from any other guys tonight . okay ? hey . you got my back ? britt : he 'll have to fend off a dozen , i 'm sure . nikolas : that 's why i live on an island . spencer : dad , we 're on an important mission . let 's go . nikolas : okay , okay . let 's go . britt : in my whole life , i can never remember being this happy . felix : so ? what does the paternity test say ? elizabeth : i was right . dante falconeri is the father of britt 's baby . | julian warns kiki that her mother will want something in return for bailing her out of jail . michael tells kiki that carly will be ok and concedes that franco saved her life . she is disappointed that michael rallied everyone to point fingers at franco instead of trusting her . he tells her that aiding and abetting a criminal is a felony . she says his mother would be dead if she had n't helped franco escape , and now franco is fighting for his life because he saved her . she wishes michael would admit that he was wrong and that franco was just as much heather 's victim as carly was . |

[ scene_break ] alexis : you were spying on me ? ned : no , i was not spying on you . i just , um , happened to see you . alexis : because you were spying on me . ned : because i was concerned about you . you canceled lunch , so i decided to track you down . alexis : for your information , ned , i went there to tell julian that the authorities had called off the search for his sister . ned : oh . oh , okay . so -- well , that must have been very difficult for you . alexis : no , it was very difficult for him . he took the loss very hard . ned : so you stayed to comfort him ? alexis : in point of fact , i was there with julian to consult for his defense . ned : wow ! so you 're now representing that dirtbag ? so much for washing your hands of that guy ! [ scene_break ] olivia : sleeping with julian jerome -- not something i 'm exactly proud of . mel : oh , yeah . no good ? olivia : no , he was actually very good , but that 's not the point . i slept with the guy for all the wrong reasons . mel : oh , come on . you must have got some satisfaction out of it . you stuck it to alexis by sticking it to jules . olivia : yeah , but all i wound up doing was upsetting alexis , and upsetting ned by proxy . i almost lost the guy as a friend . and he 's too important to me to lose . mel : okay , wait , i thought you were the one that told ned that you could n't be just friends . olivia : yeah , yeah , yeah , i tried that , but i just -- i could n't do it , mel . i - i need him in my life , even if it 's just as a friend . bartender : can i take that from you ? olivia : yeah . hey , you can take mine , too . mel : w - whoa , whoa , whoa , hold up , hold up . that wine is too good to waste . i 'll finish this . olivia : no , no , put that down . i think i 'm coming down with the flu . do n't touch that . mel : wait , you did n't get the shot ? olivia : you know i hate needles ! mel : ah . well , kid , this has been great , catching up , but i got to go see my son . my unsolicited advice -- you 're lying to yourself , girl , all right ? you got it bad for this ned . if you do n't tell him soon , it might be too late .

[ georgie babbling ] maxie : well , this is n't some misunderstanding about why i helped johnny . it 's that i helped him at all , in the first place . you know , i - i honestly thought that i compromised by leaving the room , but i did n't even realize what a terrible position i 'd put nathan in . spinelli : well , how do you mean ? maxie : nathan was the detective ordered to find johnny , so , essentially , i forced nathan to cover up a crime he was ordered to solve . [ scene_break ] natalia : no smashed locks , no broken windows . how exactly did mr. zacchara break into your girlfriend 's apartment ? nathan : well , johnny and maxie were friends a long time ago . i do n't know . i guess , uh -- and he dated her former roommate . must have known where the spare key was . natalia : well , that poor thing . that criminal took advantage of their friendship like that . she must feel so violated . nathan : it 's hard when someone you care about lets you down . natalia : why are you even here ? y - you should be with her . [ scene_break ] maxie : nathan should be here with us right now . he 's just so upset with me . that 's the thing about nathan -- what he lacks in body fat , he makes up for in integrity . he really believes in right and wrong and has a moral compass -- which , do n't misunderstand , i think is a great thing , but he just does n't see the shades of gray . and asking him to cover for me to cover for what i did for johnny is asking him to compromise his ethics , and i 'm just worried that for us ... we 're not gon na come back from that .

[ scene_break ] dante : i assure you we will authenticate this recording and examine it from every angle . ava : why do n't you just ask julian ? i 'm sure he can clear it all up since he 's the one who had this mystery conversation . dante : well actually , he 's being questioned as we speak . ava : oh , well that 's great . dante : i need to get a sense of your movements today , ava . ava : i got up . i went to work . i was accosted by sonny . is that enough sense for you ? dante : you know what ? i do n't get it . i do n't get you ava . you 're gon na sit here and talk all this big love you have for morgan and all you 're doing is dragging your feet and we 're trying to find out who murdered him . how do you square that ? all i can figure is that maybe you 're not as innocent as you claim . ava : i woke up around 7 , i had some breakfast . grapefruit with sugar . i took a shower . 15 minutes maybe . [ scene_break ] julian : charges were dropped , huh ? does the da know this ? jordan : yes , of course . some new evidence has come to light that absolves sonny of all wrongdoing . julian : what kind of new evidence ? jordan : where were you this morning ? julian : what does that have to do with anything ? jordan : i do n't know . maybe nothing . i wo n't know until you tell me . [ flashback ] ava : oh , you 're up bright and early this morning ! julian : i was at home and then i went to the metro court ford meeting , mrs. davis was a witness so you can ask her , since she was there . jordan : well that 's good to know . what time was that ? julian : bout 11 : 30 . jordan : and before that ? you were at home all morning with ava ? julian : yes , but ava left for work early . jordan : can anyone confirm your presence ? julian : neighbors , doorman . what 's with all the questions ? jordan : well uh , what time did you leave home to go to the metro court ? julian : do n't remember . jordan : and you do n't remember stopping anywhere ? julian : not that i recall . jordan : no ? ca n't remember stopping off to pick up , say i do n't know some ginseng or lotus root ? something ? julian : you know this is getting ridiculous right ? jordan : i know for a fact that you went to the koshing remedy shop at 10 : 30 and that is way before your meeting at the metro court . julian : i 'm sorry . what makes you think that i was ? jordan : oh this ... [ playback recording ] julian : no more threats ! no more bombs under my car we 're done . i 'm tired of living in fear of my own sister . jordan : that sounds like sonny was n't the one who wanted you dead . your own sister tried to kill you . and you knew about it all along . [ scene_break ] anna : excuse me ? oh , my god . these migraines . i ca n't even see . can you see my pills ? please , can you help me ? can you see my pills anywhere ? please can you help ? are you still there ? i ca n't find my medication . can you see it ? [ scene_break ] valentin : i explained earlier . i think it 's best we communicate through our lawyers . do n't you think ? lulu : no need to involve the lawyers . i was just looking for nina and she was n't at our office . valentin : well she 's at home with charlotte . and they 're expecting me so if you 'll excuse me . lulu : wait . do you have time to hear my apology ? [ scene_break ] felicia : why on earth did i think you were from atlanta ? did i make that up ? nelle : no , i mean i mentioned that i lived there for a while . and i did . before i came to port charles . felicia : you know what ? i do n't detect a trace of a southern accent . no accent at all really . nelle : well i 'll take that as a compliment . i worked really really hard to get rid of it . you know ? because some yankees hear the florida accent and they think ignorant corn pone hick . and i 'm anything but that . felicia : oh , well cheers . [ scene_break ] sonny : you never asked me why i broke house arrest . carly : you went after the person who set the bomb . sonny : you never asked me who it was . carly : it was ava . was n't it ? [ scene_break ] dante : good news . ava . we spoke to your assistant . your story checks out . ava : of course it does . dante : mostly . ava : excuse me ? dante : what time did you get to work again ? ava : well i told you . 8 a.m. my assistant was already on the premises . i was there all day . i sold a couple of pieces . i arranged some shipments with the movers . curtis ashford showed up this afternoon . dante : see that 's the part where i get a little lost . the morning time is just confusing . your assistant does confirm your arrival , the sales , the movers . but she also said you stepped out for a little bit . ava : yes ! yes she 's absolutely right . i did . i went back to my place to pick up some contracts that i had left . dante : what time was that ? ava : around 10 : 30 . dante : anyone see you there ? anyone at your apartment ? ava : no , but i went right back to the gallery . i could n't have been gone longer than an hour . dante : so from 10 : 30 to 11 : 30 you were out of the gallery by yourself ? ava : yeah , i 'm a grown up , detective . i frequently travel alone . dante : it seems you could do a lot of things , ava . the one thing you ca n't seem to do is account for your whereabouts between 10 : 30 and 11 : 30 . the exact time your brother made this recording julian : no more threats ! no more bombs under my car we 're done . i 'm tired of living in fear of my own sister . dante : care to comment ? [ scene_break ] jordan : decide on an answer yet ? julian : i decided i have nothing more to say . jordan : all right , because you sure had a few things to say on that recording . julian : ha ha ha . you know that was n't my voice . jordan : how about that ? hmm ? is that your face ? listen if you cooperate . you help us build this case against ava . i might be able to do something for you . julian : yeah ? something like what ? jordan : well , i can see to it that the charges are brought against you . julian : against me ? why would you bring the charges against me ? i 've been fighting for my life . jordan : exactly . you can see the jury will believe you . or you could actually cooperate with me . and i will make sure i 'm not charging you with obstruction of justice . julian : obstruction ? i 'm the victim . jordan : oh , i 'm sorry . this recording proves that you knew that sonny corinthos was not responsible for the bomb that killed his son . i 'm not sure that a jury would be sympathetic to a man that knowingly led an already grieving father to suffer unnecessarily . it kind of makes you out to be a heartless bastard . julian : okay , look . i was afraid for my life . somebody was trying to kill me . jordan : somebody . yes , we know . your sister , ava . who you never named in any of your statements to the police about the attempt on your life . that is perjury , by the way . and you know what ? a good prosecutor . they might be able to build a case . conspiracy . collusion . julian : you know you have no cause to keep me here . so either you arrest me or you let me go . [ scene_break ] carly : ava killed morgan , huh ? sonny : yup ! she denies it but there 's proof she was involved . carly : what kind of proof ? sonny : brick let us borrow his surveillance equipment , and he played the tape for me . he 's the one who took off the ankle monitor . carly : you went after her . sonny : absolutely . i went there . and of course , she denied it . she said i was wrong . she was crying . fake crying . and said , `` i would never hurt morgan . i 'm in love with morgan . `` and then jason came in and interrupted . he basically saved her life , so i assume that jason took her to the police station . she 's there right now . carly , are you ok ? carly ? no , no , no no . carly : get out of my way . get out of my way ! sonny : where are you going ? carly : i 'm going to go find ava , and i 'm going to kill that bitch with my own two hands ! [ scene_break ] dante : that photo was taken at the same time that recording was made . the same time you were absent from the gallery . ava : is that supposed to be me ? i do n't know who that is but it certainly is n't me . oh ! ask my brother . he 'll straighten this out . jordan : you know the drill . do n't even think about leaving town . ava : julian , the cops have mistaken me for some associate of yours . would you come in here and set them straight , please ? please tell them that 's it 's not me in the recording or in that photo . julian : you did nothing wrong . we 'll get through this . just tell the truth . ava : what ? no , julian you tell them . julian , come on ! do n't leave me here . [ scene_break ] karl : anna ! what happened ? anna : i 'm having a really bad migraine . i ca n't see very well . i dropped some pills . yes . thank you . olivia : i 'll be seeing you anna . anna : where is that woman ? is there a woman in here ? karl : what woman -- the nurse ? do you want me to get the nurse ? anna : no , it 's fine , do you have my pills ? thank you . ok . oh , god . i know you do n't i ? karl : i should hope so . we spent some of our formative years together . training with the wsb . you , me and valentin cassadine . [ scene_break ] valentin : by all means , have your say . but remember you came in peace . lulu : i wanted to apologize to you and nina for what happened earlier . valentin : when you went behind nina 's back to steal time with charlotte . hurt her a second time . lulu : upsetting my daughter is the last thing i want to do , okay ? and for that i am truly sorry . valentin : no , you 're not sorry . you are thoughtless , selfish and you are massively entitled . you ca n't help but put charlotte 's needs , second to yours . it 's like they do n't even matter . well they matter to me . you hurt my daughter . you traumatized charlotte and for that i do not forgive you . [ scene_break ] felicia : you know who else is from florida ? nelle : no . felicia : bobbie spencer . nelle : ugh . i mean i guess that 's one thing we have in common . felicia : hmm . oh i need to take this . excuse me . nelle : sure . michael : hey . what 's all this , huh ? are you getting into business as an interior decorator ? nelle : actually i have an interior decorator of my own . felicia scorpio has offered to redo my bedroom . she 's trying to build up her portfolio . michael : really ? i had no idea felicia was into interior design . nelle : oh , maybe she 's trying something new . i do n't know . i hope that wo n't be awkward for you . with me working with her . michael : why would that be awkward ? nelle : i know she and your grandmother do n't exactly get along . michael : are you serious ? those two are like thick as thieves . the best of friends . [ scene_break ] felicia : she says she 's from somewhere in florida . but there 's nothing new on the boyfriend angle . sooner or later nelle 's going to give something up . [ scene_break ] nelle : so bobbie and felicia are best friends ? michael : yeah . beyond best friends . nellie . it 's a port charles legend . i 'm surprised you have n't heard about it . nelle : well , tell me . michael : ok . so maxie is the daughter of felicia and a man named frisco jones . now frisco had a brother , named dr. tony jones . he was married to bobbie and they had a daughter named bj . nelle : yes , i remember joss referencing bj in her family tree . michael : so when maxie was little , she had a serious heart condition . it got so serious that she needed a heart transplant . and everyone thought she was n't going to make it . she almost did n't . but bj died in a bus accident . my grandmother and tony jones gave bj 's heart to maxie . nelle : so felicia owes her daughter 's life to bobbie . michael : i guess you can relate to that story . ca n't you ? nelle : yeah , i guess if i were felicia i 'd do just about anything for bobbie . [ scene_break ] carly : i want you to get the hell outta my way . sonny : carly , stop . carly : ava did it . she killed our son , and i will make her pay . sonny : it 's not like that . i 'm not letting you go down that road carly : i was his mother and it was my job to protect him . and he should be here right now with us and he 's not . he 's gone . our son is gone forever . and ava , that bitch is out there walking around free . it has to stop . ava has to stop , and i 'm going to be the one to stop her . sonny : that 's what i went to do . i went to kill her . i pointed a gun at her . jason came in and said do n't kill her , because we 're not sure it 's her . carly : i do n't give a damn ! sonny : i do n't give a damn either . but i 'm not going to let you throw your life away . for ava . it 's not worth it . [ scene_break ] jordan : we appreciate your patience . thank you for answering our questions . ava : well i certainly hope that julian cleared everything up . because this has taken much too long . and i have more pressing matters to move onto . like filing assault charges against sonny . jordan : well we can certainly discuss that once we 've ruled out your involvement in the corinthos murder . ava : but you just talked to julian . it was n't me on that recording . what is going to take to get that through your heads . jordan : you can submit to an audio lineup . [ scene_break ] olivia jerome : i warned you not to come here . it 's too dangerous . julian : any less dangerous than meeting you at the herb shop . the cops made your front . it 's compromised . olivia : is that why you were at pcpd just now ? julian : you knew ? olivia : i thought i made it clear i always got eyes on you . julian : okay . well , you 're not the only one . because the cops are breathing down my neck and it 's only a matter of time before they 're breathing down yours . olivia : calm down . frantic is not a good look for you . julian : well , how would you like it if i took you down to the commissioner 's office right now . how would you like it ? olivia : are you threatening me ? julian : no i 'm not i 'm just .. okay , look , i 'm trying to make you see the urgency of the situation here . they have a recording of our conversation this morning . they have me on tape talking about my sister . planting a bomb in my car . they have a photo of us . olivia : you idiot ! [ scene_break ] anna : karl browning . right ? karl : at your service . anna : wow . it 's been a long time . karl : obviously since you did n't even recognize me . anna : no , no i have these migraines . they 're really affecting my vision . a fair amount . thank you so much for coming to my rescue . i appreciate that . karl : of course . unsurprisingly you look wonderful even in pain . it 's good to see you anna . despite the circumstances . anna : how did you get here so fast ? i literally spoke to robert this morning . karl : i grabbed the next shuttle out of dc . certain names demand prompt attention . ivan theodore or valentin cassadine -- same man , same danger . anna : do you think you could fill in the blanks for me ? karl : i could try . but if i were you , anna , i would be grateful for some of those blanks . you should keep as much distance between yourself and valentin cassadine as possible . [ scene_break ] lulu : i just want to spend time with her . ca n't you understand that ? valentin : i understand . i understand you do what you want to do regardless of the cost . well , here 's the rub . i reject your apology . because actions are a judge of a person , not their words . lulu : and how do you reconcile shooting kevin collins and murdering my brother ? sanctimonious hypocrite ! [ scene_break ] karl : how are you feeling ? anna : the medication is starting to work a little bit actually . i 'm still confounded though . why ivan / valentin would end up here in port charles with an agenda and i seem to be at the top of it . just because i would n't let him kiss me . i mean there has to be more to it than that . karl : well , of course , there is . anna , valentin has much more cause to hate you than unrequited love . [ scene_break ] michael : where did you get the idea that my grandmother and felicia are n't cool with each other ? nelle : oh , i must have just gotten my wires crossed . michael : oh , i should go . i 'm about to be late for a gh board meeting . nelle : this time of night ? michael : it 's all hands on deck . nelle : ok . michael : well , i 'll see you later . nelle : all right . bye . michael : bye . felicia : sorry about that . nelle : oh . is everything okay ? felicia : right as rain . so , where were we ? florida , right ? nelle : oh , that 's so boring . i 'd rather talk about my boyfriend , if that 's okay with you . [ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't know . i do n't know what the hell to think right now , because i feel like a hypocrite telling you to back off when i was gon na do the same thing ! i swear to you , i was on the verge . if jason had n't come in and reminded me that i was gon na lose my family , i would 've pulled the trigger just like you want to pull the trigger . but we ca n't do that until we know 100 % that it 's ava . carly : when will that be ? [ scene_break ] olivia jerome : how could you be so stupid , letting the police get onto you ? we are this close to getting us what we want . and , no , my imbecile brother lets it all come crashing down ! julian : okay , okay . liv , cops overplayed their hand . commissioner played me the recording . she showed me the photo . it 's just the back of your head . what 's worse is that the cops think that the woman who planted that bomb in my car was our sister , ava . olivia : [ scoffs ] of course , they do . [ scene_break ] ava : what do you need an audio lineup for ? dante : we have an eyewitness to the bombing . an active participant . ava : okay , good , 'cause if you have an eyewitness , then what are we doing here ? jordan : 'cause that eyewitness can clear me . well , the eyewitness can identify two core members of the conspiracy -- one by sight and one by voice . dante : if the witness does n't know your voice , ca n't make a positive id , then you 're free to go . ava : [ scoffs ] and if i refuse ? jordan : well , i mean , that 's certainly within your rights . i 'm -- we 're just gon na get a warrant , so , you know , if you really want to clear this up , it 's just best to cooperate . ava : okey - doke , fine . let 's get this over with . and once i 'm cleared , i 'm going after sonny . 'cause i am through being on the losing end of things . [ scene_break ] lulu : have i made mistakes coming at charlotte too soon ? yes . i will admit that , because i love her , and i want her in my life . but what 's your excuse ? how will you explain to charlotte that you killed her uncle ? valentin : you ever read `` richard iii `` ? lulu : what ? valentin : i 'm guessing no . one of shakespeare 's greatest villains . but here 's the thing , the play 's a lie , written by his enemies to make them look good , him look bad , but if richard had won , it 'd be a different story . so , here 's the thing . truth is subjective . history 's written by the victors , so the answer to your question -- charlotte will know what i tell her . she 'll understand my definition of the truth . i 'll see you in court . [ scene_break ] anna : what other reason would valentin have to target me ? karl : you truly do n't remember ? anna : no . karl : you have no recollection of what happened to him ? anna : i - i have n't heard from him . i have n't even thought about him since our training days , and -- and no . i mean , i - i tried accessing his file , but i was denied access to that , and it was like it did n't even exist . karl : hmm . did you get , uh , `` access denied - top secret `` ? anna : well , yes , at first , and then when i -- i - i could n't even download it . it just -- the file completely vanished . karl : then it 's probably entirely redacted . all right . uh , here is the rundown . uh ... one day , valentin simply failed to show up for work , incommunicado , vanished . i suspected he got word of what was coming . anna : what was coming ? karl : anna , you were there for all of it . he was targeted for `` forced disappearance . `` anna : the wsb sanctioned his assassination ? karl : valentin was put on a kill - list . and you put him there . [ scene_break ] sonny : i shot aj believing he killed connie . i was wrong . it was ava covering her own ass . carly : yeah . exactly . we know that ava killed connie , which means we know she 's capable of murder . why are we giving her the benefit of the doubt when it comes to morgan ? sonny : we 're not . we just -- we have to be sure , that 's all . because if somebody else planted the bomb , somebody else killed morgan , we do n't want them getting away because we 're so sure it 's ava . carly : okay , fine . does jason have any other suspects ? sonny : well , he -- he -- his gut says it 's not ava , and my gut says , uh , there 's something else going on . carly : what does that mean , sonny ? sonny : when i had her in my sight , ava said that she did something she regretted to morgan . if she did n't kill morgan , she had something to do with it . and i sure as hell am gon na find out . [ scene_break ] felicia : so , tell me about your boyfriend . what colors does he like ? blue for the ocean ? is he from either of the coasts ? nelle : you know , let 's just forget about themes and unifying pieces . i just need the basics , you know , decluttering and organizing . felicia : oh , yeah ? nelle : more room , you know ? felicia : why is that ? nelle : well , i have a feeling that pretty soon my unavailable boyfriend might not be so unavailable . who knows ? he might even move right on in with me .

just take it easy . carly : why are you being so uptight ? are you afraid your little angel robin is going to find out about us ? jason : carly -- carly : do n't i show you a good time ? jason : it 's the fever talking . we have n't been together for years . carly : no way . i would have to be crazy to ever give you up . courtney : you have so many reasons to be angry with me . i left you alone and said i needed to be by myself . i treated you badly . i just ca n't -- nikolas : courtney , courtney , listen to me . look around here . look at what 's going on , ok ? there 's no time for resentment . i just want to be honest with each other about what we feel . i asked u once before , courtney , to marry me . courtney : and i walked away like a fool . nikolas : then turn around and walk back to me . say you 'll be my wife , please ? courtney : are you sure ? nikolas : i bought you an engagement ring . it 's on the dresser . i promised myself that i would offer it to you the first time i saw you again . courtney : no matter how often i told myself i was doing the right thing , i could n't get you out of my mind or my heart . i knew whether we were together or apart i would love you for as long as i lived . yes , yes , nikolas , i 'll marry you . father coates : dillon and georgie , these vows are sacred and should not be entered into lightly . dillon : we won't . do you mind if i say something ? georgie : no , dillon , you should save your strength . dillon : what 's more important than this ? georgie , my whole life i felt like something was missing , and i did n't know what it was until i met you -- my soul mate , my inspiration , the thing that filled that void in my heart . the best day of my life -- before tod -- was when you told me that you loved me , too . you 're my best friend and my hero . you 're -- you 're the person that i respect more than anyone in the world . you gave me the courage to love and the faith to dream , and now you 're part of that dream . georgie : dillon , you 've changed my entire life , your faith in me and -- and your trust . you taught me to believe in myself and all my possibilities . you already have my heart , and now you have my hand as i vow to love you until the day that i die . dillon : take this ring as a token of my faith and abiding love . georgie : maxie ? thank you . take this ring as a token of my faith and abiding love . father coates : having pledged themselves each unto the other and having sealed that pledge with the joining of hands and the exchanging of rings , i now pronounce dillon and georgie husband and wife . what god has joined together , let no man put asunder . you may kiss your bride . dillon : as soon as i 'm not contagious , i 'm kissing the stuffing out of you . georgie : and i am holding you to that . mac : congratulations , you two . georgie : thanks . thank you . mac : i wish you happiness -- and a little backup when your mother gets home . maxie : do n't worry , dad , there 's plenty of room for you at the dorms . tracy : ok , can we get dillon back to his room , please ? geore : yes . [ maxie moans ] lucas : maxie , what 's wrong ? maxie : nothing . my heart 's just pounding really weird . it 's kd of , uh -- it 's probably from the excitement . i ca n't believe my baby sister just got married . lucas : waityou ca n't take any chances , maxie , not with your heart . maxie : lucas , why are you so worried about me ? your father just died . lucas : which is the reason why i 'm so worried about you . go find monica right now and have her check you out . i 'll cover with your dad . jax : how you feeling ? courtney : i feel a little better . whatever medicine they gave me helped with the dizziness . the baby likes it , too . it just kicked . nikolas : courtney and i are getting married , jax . i just want you to know that i 'll never come between you and your child . i think we all owe this baby more than that . monica : courtney , we need to go over your options . nikolas : yeah . i think a pregnant woman moves up to the top of the waiting list for an antidote , no ? monica : nikolas , what are you doing out here ? you 've been touch - and - go as it is . nikolas : if you 're telling me to go back to my room , monica , forget it , i 'm not leaving her . carly : jason , i need your help . i need your help . tony and a.j . , ty hate me . they hate me , and i 'm not even sure which one is the baby 's father . they want to take my baby . jason : no , no , no , carly , no one is going to take michael away . carly : jason , i have told so many lies . and i just keep thinking just one more -- just one more lie . i even lied about who i am . my real name is caroline and bobbie spencer is my mother and she left me and she hates me . jason : carly , bobbie loves you . carly : no , i did something you 're really not going to like . jason , i told tony that you 're my baby 's father . please do n't be mad at me . jason : whatever you need , i 'll help . carly : you 're the best friend i 've ever had . monica : nikolas , you 've got to get back to bed . nikolas : i ca n't hurt courtney by being here , monica . she 's already infected . monica : if we do n't get your fever under control , your life could be at risk . courtney : nikolas , please do what monica says . monica : maxie , would you grab that wheelchair and get nikolas back upstairs , please ? maxie : sure . your taxi , sir . nikolas : you 'll be fine . i love you . courtney : all right . so , what other options do me and my baby have other than waiting for the antidote ? monica : well , we ca n't wait , courtney . jax : monica ? i need a moment with courtney . it 's important . monica : well -- all right , but just a moment , ok ? jax : sure . courtney : something somebody 's not telling me ? jax : if we try to save the baby , it could cost you your life . nikolas : you all right ? maxie : um , yeah . we 've all just been going nonstop since things started , and i 've been running around trying to help my sister . besides , a shallow girl like me , i 'm just not used to working this hard . nikolas : well , for a shallow girl , you 've certainly risen to the occasion . maxie : do n't speak too soon . i have n't gotten you back to your room yet . what was that ? nikolas : i think we 're stuck . ric : hey . i do n't know how to do this . sam : what ? ric : praying . i do n't know the rules . i mean , are you supposed to light a candle , or is begging out of the question ? sam : i guess it 's really your call . ric : religion was n't a big thing in my family . my father and my stepmother never really went to church . they sure as hell never -- oh , boy . there it goes . probably not the bt thing to say in a place like this , huh ? they never -- never took me to church or -- or sunday school . not like sonny , you know ? i mean , his mother -- our mother -- she took him every week , you know ? she was a very religious woman . the mother i never knew . you know , uh , dr . drake -- the young one -- said that sonny got the serum . that 's good . i bet it 's a reward for all of those -- those sundays in church , huh ? ric : well , my mother would be happy . she loved sonny . she chose him . carly : jason ! jason ? jason : it 's ok , it 's ok , it 's ok . i 'm right re . i 'm right here . how you feeling ? carly : oh , like i 've been hit by a fleet of trucks . jason : well , at least you 're -- hey . at least you 're not hallucinating anymore . carly : was i hallucinating ? jason : uh , yeah . you thought we were in my old room over jake 's . carly : oh . what else did i say ? jason : you asked me to pretend to be your baby 's father . carly : so did you agree ? jason : do n't i always ? carly : yeah . you know , at 's still the single most desperate moment of my life . i was falling fast and all my lies were crashing around me , and you were there to catch me . you mattered from the first moment . yeah , the sex was great , but you came through for me . and you helped me with no questions asked , and that 's why i fell in love with you . do you ever wonder what might 've happened if things had ended up differently ? georgie : thank you , everyone . georgie : dillon ? what are you doing ? dillon : can i have this dance ? georgie : you really need to get some rest , mister . dillon : just -- just one dance with my bride . hmm ? georgie : i love you , husband . dillon : i love you , wife . georgie : dillon ? dillon ? no , no , somebody , please help me ! we need a doctor in here ! somebody please help me ! patrick : your temperature 's almost normal . your vitals look strong . i 'd say the serum is working . sonny : so what happens now ? patrick : we 're going to keep you for observation , then you can go home . sonny : why would i do that when everybody i care about is here ? patrick : the important thing is that you do n't push yourself . you got the last dose of serum . we have to make sure your recovery sticks . sonny : thank you . emily : thank you , patrick . so it 's good news . sonny : well , it 's not good news until carly and jason come with the antidote . emily : i , for one , am going to remain grateful that you 're doing so well . meanwhile , you need to rest . you heard him . sonny : emily ? there 's something else i need from you . carly : you know , when you think about it , we had two real chances . jason : what do you mean , two ? carly : well , the first time was before robin told a.j . that he was michael 's father . i mean , think about it . if it were n't for robin , i would n't have had to come up with my plan to marry a.j . and then divorce him . jason : ok , carly , you know what ? you 're sick , you 're tired . you know , do n't waste your strength -- carly : it took a whole year for me to find my way back to you . oh , god , that was so hard . you 're pretty tough , you know that ? jason : yeah , thanks for clearing that up for me . carly : i was so close to having you right where i wanted you . i even got you to kiss me a few times . and then i had to go and trash everything by sleeping with sonny . for a while , i thought that was the worst mistake of my life . jason : it wasn't . we both know it . you know what ? i can answer your question . where would we be if we 'd gotten together ? nowhere . carly : i do n't believe that . you love me . jason : of course i do . but i can only love you the way you need because i 'm not in love with you . you ca n't break my heart . and you know we 're both better off . sam : hey . you 're awake . alexis : i 'm awake and i 'm embarrassed , sam . i 'm so sorry . sam : do n't , please . i think we have all had fevery dreams . did danny hurt you ? alexis : he was just protecting you -- i understand that -- and i 'm glad ric came in when he did . that way , no one got hurt . sam : i just -- i hope it did n't put a strain on him . i just saw him in the chapel and -- alexis : is he ok ? sam : i 'm not sure . i mean , he was n't delirious or anything . he was -- alexis : did you call a doctor ? sam : everyone 's running around . i pushed the call button , though , alexis . i pushed the call button . a nurse will be there -- alexis : ok -- sam : hey . are you ok ? alexis : i 'm a little dizzy . but that 's ok , i can do it . jax : look , dr . lee said at this stage in your pregnancy , if the baby 's born , he or she will -- will be at risk for so many complications . and you 're already sick . your body wo n't be able to take the added strain of a c - section . it could kill you . courtney : a caesarean ? why -- why would i have a caesarean ? the baby 's not ready yet . jax : because the virus will most likely infect the baby and it probably wo n't survive if you carry it to term . courtney : then i want to have the c - section as soon as possible . jax : no , you ca n't -- you ca n't risk it , courtney . courtney : jax , it 's the best chance our baby has . jax : listen to me . listen very carefully , ok ? our baby is probably going to die anyway . i know , i know that 's a terrible thing to say -- i know it is -- but we have to face reality here before you just throw your life away . courtney : i 'm a mother . jax , i will do whatever it takes to give this baby the best possible chance . jax : what about nikolas ? i just heard you pledge your life and your love to him . does n't he get a say in this ? maxie : we 're stuck between five and six . woman : i do n't know if maintenance is still in the building . maxie : ok , well , i have a patient in here . what am i supposed to do ? woman : just stay calm and someone will get back to you . maxie : ok , great . nikolas : ok , well , i guess we 'll just have to hold back and take it easy , wo n't we ? happy valentine 's day , by the way . maxie : right . you know , i should be somewhere nice with jesse right now , but instead i 'm stuck in an elevator with you -- no offense -- and jesse 's fighting a fever in a hospital bed . at least georgie 's having a decent valentine 's day . you know she and dillon just got married ? nikolas : what , here in the hospital ? maxie : yeah . they had a really , really nice wedding in the chapel . it was everything they wanted -- to get married and love each other for the rest of their lives . must be nice to have a life with no doubts . nikolas : yeah . robin : we have dillon on fever - reducers . all we can do now is wait . tracy : why do n't you tell them the truth ? you think dillon 's going to di and i knew this was going to happen as soon as he married her ! georgie : stop it ! stop it ! dillon is not going to die ! he promised me . so you can take your negativity and your pessimism elsewhere . take it away from this room and away from my husband . georgie : we have to prove them wrong . please , dillon , please come back to me . we really need a happy ending . nikolas : i 'm happy for your sister and dillon . i hope they spend the rest of their lives as in love as they are right now . maxie : yeah . makes you wonder how one person can end up with the right person and the other one just keeps making mistake after mistake , you know , like they either hold on too long or let go too soon . they can never seem to end up with their perfect person -- if such a person even really exists . nikolas : i 'm probably not the best person to talk about this , ok ? i mean , i had no doubt in my mind that my marriage to emily would last forever , i mean , as certain as dillon and georgie were today , so -- maxie : yeah , but you were going to prison . you needed to believe in something good . nikolas : yeah , but so many other things went wrong . you know , most of them were n't our fault and , ultimately , i mean , i just could n't make our marriage work . it 's not hopeless , though . i mean , i fell in love again . maxie : yeah , but love is such a mishmash of things . i mean , sometimes i 'm -- i 'm certain that what i feel for jesse is real , and then other times i 'm so worried that i 'm just so in love with the idea of being in love and that i want what georgie has so badly i kind of talk myself into it . nikolas : there 's nothing wrong with wanting love . it 's as natural as breathing the air . maxie : yeah , but how do you know when it 's real ? nikolas : if you have to ask me that , then it 's probably better for you to wait and be sure . because when you ask someone to open their heart to you , that 's a big responsibility . alexis : ric ? ric : how did you get here ? alexis : sam , would you wait for me in case i need help getting him back to his room ? sam : i 'll wait . alexis : sweetie , you need to go back to your room . ric : why do you care ? you never did before . adela : of course i care . i love you . ric : no , you do n't love me , you love sonny . it 's always been sonny . alexis : that 's not true . ric : you chose sonny . you left me with my father and you never looked back ! how could you do that ? why did n't you le me enough to keep me ? carly : must be nice to be you , never worry about what might have been . i 'm jealous . jason : no . no , you 're not . you would n't trade one minute of your life . carly : i would n't change anything that gave me my kids or that made you my friend . and i would n't change the good times with sonny . i 'd happily trade my nervous breakdown for a trip to tuscany . jason : well , you got through your nervous breakdown , thank god , and you made your way back , and now you 're ok . carly : i realized i 'm always going to love sonny , but i need to have my own life . jason : that 's a good thing . that 's a good thing for me . carly : i 'd be lying , jason , if i said i did n't miss what sonny and i had , you know ? but sonny and i , we were way too intense . we almost destroyed each other . emily : how are you feeling ? sonny : like i can breathe again . i felt trapped in there , you know ? emily : yeah . it does feel good . emily : sonny , i do n't think we should stay long . i do n't want you to relapse . sonny : i know what you 're thinking , emily , really . i 'm not going back to carly . when you walked in on us , we were kissing -- it was n't real . it was -- i wanted to push you away . i was wrong . i 'm sorry . sonny : you 've been nothing but kind and honest . you know , i mean , you trusted me with your pain and your fear , and when i was sick in bed , i realized that i was betraying your trust . and i was not going to die with a lie between us . emily : so now i know . you let me believe that you were with carly to make me walk away . is that what you want ? sonny : i want to protect you . i want you to be safe and i want you to be happy . emily : do i get a say in how that happens ? sonny : wh i 'm with you , you take me back to a really good time in my life . you make me less cynical and you make me believe that there are better days ahead of me . emily : then why push me away ? sonny : i ca n't anyme . carly : when 's the helicopter going to be here ? jason : soon . hopefully , the local police is going to provide backup for us . whoa , whoa , whoa . carly ? ok , come on . carly : jason ?

olivia jerome : there 's an old chinese proverb . it says , `` dig your well before you 're thirsty . `` it means ... be prepared . julian : [ sighs ] what did you do ? olivia : rudge reached out to an individual named buzz , a man who is much less fortunate than we are . has nothing -- no family , no home , no job . but make no mistake , he is no random indigent .

[ scene_break ] michael : you said there 's a recording of julian talking to his sister . that has to be ava . carly : i agree , but jason said there are so many things that just do n't make sense . michael : like what ? carly : okay , well , we always believed there was a woman in charge . you know , a woman calling the shots . but jason was never able to get any information on her . and when he was finally able to tail julian to a meeting with her , the audio was bad . he got a picture , but they could n't see her face , just hair that was blond . michael : that sounds a lot like ava to me . carly : i know , but supposedly there are other elements . like , there 's some kind of involvement with an asian quarter that does n't connect to ava . and why would they have a secret meeting ? they live together . michael : probably to give them both deniability . carly : maybe . i do n't know . i do n't know . i just know that ava is in police custody and that police are investigating . michael : she 's been in custody before . i know . i want to believe in the system , i do , but if she finds another technicality , another way to get away with it , like her brother did when -- when he killed duke . carly : hey , she wo n't . michael : how -- how can you be so sure ? because your father promised me that if ava is responsible for the bomb that killed morgan , she will pay .

[ scene_break ] ava : i never signed any lease . what is this ? i 've never even been to an herb shop in the asian quarter . jordan , i 'm telling you -- somebody is setting me up . jordan : who ? ava : i do n't know . but julian , he 's made vague references to somebody else being in charge . he 's been worried about the safety of his family . jordan : is that so ? he never mentioned that when he was here . ava : then bring him back ! jordan : we 're gon na talk to julian again . do n't you worry . ava : [ clears throat ] you know , maybe it 's the pcpd that 's setting me up . maybe you 're behind that fake lease . after all , your brother - in - law , curtis , he showed up at my gallery today , pretending to be interested in buying a piece of art . jordan : he did ? ava : uh - huh . or maybe he was there to plant evidence so you could haul me in for a crime i did n't commit .

emily : no , you already told me the reason -- because sonny has a family , right ? nikolas : i did it for you , emily . yeah , i do n't think he 's good enough for you , that 's true . but i know that you love him , and i just want you to be happy . emily : well , i hope you and courtney are going to be happy , too . nikolas : thank you . i -- i have to believe that she 'll make it through this . kelly : i ca n't perform the c - section when your fever is this high . the procedure will almost certainly kill you . courtney : well , what about the baby ? how much time does it have ? kelly : it 's difficult to say . hopefully your fever will come down and plateau . that has been the pattern with many of the other patients . then we could go ahead with the c - section , and both you and your child would have a good chance at survival . courtney : what if my fever does n't level off ? kelly : i do n't want to get caught up in the `` at ifs . `` courtney : ok , i need you tell me the truth , dr . lee . if you do n't get my fever under control , what 's going to happen to me and my baby ? kelly : there 's a good possibility that both of you will die . carly : oh , god . jason : oh , hey , hey , hey , hey . carly : you 're going to have to go on without me . i ca n't make it . i 'm going to hold you back . jason : come on , carly , you ca n't quit now . we 're so close . carly : jason , the only thing that matters is finding lucky and the lab , ok ? jason : and we are going to do that together . it was your idea to go after this monkey , so you need to follow through now . carly : why do n't you just admit that you need my help ? jason : fine , i need your help , carly . carly : finally , after all these years , you admit it here in the jungle where no one can hear you . that 's great . jason : we need to keep moving . carly : oh , my god , do you think it 's lucky ? [ monica sighs ] mac : how 's she doing , monica ? monica : well , the fever has put a strain on her heart . maxie : what are we going to do ? monica : a lot of the patients have been stabilized , at least temporarily . what we have to do is find a combination of drugs that 's going to make this fever manageable . we ca n't cure the virus , but at least we can control it . georgie : dillon , your fever 's breaking . can you feel that ? how are you feeling ? dillon : better . yeah . georgie : oh . i guess you just really needed your sleep . dillon : i had the most amazing dream . georgie : oh , me , too . we got married in a moonlit park . dillon : georgie , i was at the gazebo . you were wearing a long white wedding dress . you were carrying red roses . georgie : i do n't believe this , dillon . we had the same dream ? tracy : oh , my god . he 's awake . luke : uh - oh . looks like you got your miracle . having a bladder control problem is bad enough . [ next_on ] courtney : promise you are going to do everything to get me this c - section . patrick : you can make arrangements to go home today . sonny : home ? patrick : i ca n't believe you 'd want to stay . luke : what ? have you heard from lucky ? elizabeth : i think he was calling to say goodbye . | lucky calls liz just to hear her voice and tell her she has made him happy . courtney insists on having the c - section over jax 's wishes . emily calls down instructions to nik on how to breathe for maxie while rescue efforts continue . he saves her life . tracy bargains with god for dillon 's life . carly wants to follow a monkey to lucky . dillon wakes up after a dream about georgie . nik tells emily he let sonny have the serum for her sake . courtney 's fever is too high for surgery . |
edward : is alan awake ? monica : no . no . and i do n't know if he is going to regain consciousness . [ scene_break ] luke : alan made it through surgery . lucky : is he going to be okay ? luke : too soon to tell . lucky : so we gave up our one chance to get elizabeth and lulu out of that hotel for nothing ? luke : not for nothing , pal . come on . the man is still breathing . he would n't be if we left him lying on the pavement . [ scene_break ] georgie : do you have any idea how awful i 've been to maxie these past few months ? dillon : georgie , what are you talking about ? maxie was trying to trap lucky by faking a pregnancy and a miscarriage . that is seriously messed up . georgie : exactly , dillon . she was crying out for help . and did i help her ? no . no , i just judged her , like everybody else , and now she 's stuck in there . dillon , if anything happens to her , i will never forgive myself . [ scene_break ] maxie : small enough to fit in a briefcase and worth a lot of money . do you think it 's something you could wear ? three : i do n't know . maxie : well , you were willing to risk your life for whatever 's in this briefcase , so do n't you want to know what it is ? i do . three : don � t . do n't touch it . maxie : why not ? three : the case is on a timer . we do n't know when it 's supposed to self- destruct and i do n't want to see you get hurt . [ scene_break ] skye : if we ca n't get that code to mr. craig , everything inside that suitcase will be destroyed -- along with the chance to get those hostages out alive . so i need you to think , lorenzo . 7 - 6 - 7 -- do those numbers mean anything to you at all ? lorenzo : sorry , i want to help you , but i ca n't think of what -- [ phone rings ] skye : don � t . you ca n't answer that . [ scene_break ] sonny : being in here has reminded me why i fell in love with you . why my life feels so empty without you in it . we ca n't waste any more time , so i 'm just -- i 'm -- i 'm asking you -- when we get out of here , i want you to marry me , for real this time . carly : sonny -- sonny : no , no , no , i 'm serious . carly : it 's so hard to -- sonny : what -- what ? carly : it 's really hard to think of your future when you 're in a lobby full of explosives . sonny : that 's not an answer . just tell me . carly : you want an answer ? ask me again if we live through this . [ scene_break ] sam : it 's jason . he 's dressed in one of the guard 's outfits . he 's over there by the door . james : would you like to share with me what has the two of you so captivated ? [ scene_break ] [ phone rings ] skye : that phone was given to you by your covert - ops contact . it 's a dedicated line so they can reach you anytime they want . lorenzo : you think they 're calling to check on the shipment ? skye : the exchange was supposed to take place in a few hours . i 'm sure they 're calling to make sure everything 's going to take place . or maybe they 've seen the news , and they want assurance that that briefcase is nowhere near the metro court . in any case , lorenzo , you can not answer that phone . you 'd be putting both our lives in danger . ric : i agree with skye . it 's probably best that you do n't answer . [ scene_break ] patrick : i 've decompressed mr. danza 's skull fracture and evacuated the hematoma . he 's on his way back to post - op now . russell : dr. morucci did n't seem to think the patient had much of a chance . patrick : the tissue was n't nearly as ischemic as the mri indicated . mr. danza will be back to being a bigot in no time . russell : well , bigot or not , he deserves the best chance we could give him . patrick : yeah . i did my part . russell : you 're still on call , doctor . another patient comes in that requires your expertise , i expect to see you here . [ scene_break ] monica : he -- he suffered a massive heart attack . and we -- we tried angioplasty , but actually , the damage had already been done edward : would it be all right if i -- if i sat here for a while ? monica : i think he 'd like it . edward : oh , poor monica . she is beside herself with worry . so is your sister . although , tracy would never admit it . they 're both afraid that you may never come out of this . but i 'll be damned if i will let you sleep what 's left of your life away -- when there 's something that i need to say . alan , you have been seeking my approval for years , wanting to know what i really thought about what you made of yourself . if you wake up , i 'll tell you . how 's that for motivation , huh ? [ scene_break ] maxie : god , it 's like a sauna in here . you know , the least you could do is thank me . three : what for ? maxie : well , you have to be a lot cooler without that mask on . three : why do n't i return the favor ? maxie : you found a fan ? it 's gorgeous . how much do you think it 's worth ? three : as long as it moves the air around , i could care less . maxie : oh -- seriously , i would give anything to be standing in the water right now with a cool breeze coming off the ocean , a margarita in my hand . oh . you know , if i get out of this alive , i 'm heading straight for the airport and catching the first flight to cancun . what about you ? what are you going to do ? three : i do n't know . maxie : you do n't know ? there has to be something you want to do with all that money you 're going to get from this job . three : it 's not like i 'm the one that 's going to be spending it . maxie : who will be ? three : my girlfriend . [ scene_break ] sam : i heard some movement outside , and i was hoping the swat team was getting ready to come in here and blow your head off . james : you know , this impulsive streak of yours must keep your boyfriend on his toes . but i should warn you that you should be wise to exercise some restraint . after all , you have eight demerits . elizabeth : demerits ? james : oh , well , did i fail to mention that we 're all operating on a point system here ? each act of willful disobedience gets a demerit . sweet sam has four , for hitting the silent alarm and locking up the vault , two more for trying to take the mask off my head without my permission , and two more for pulling that stunt with the knife . i should warn you , sweet sam , 10 demerits and you die . well , we have less than three hours before the vault opens . would anyone please tell sweet sam what will happen if a swat team comes to do an extraction of hostages before the vault opens ? anybody ? please ? hmm ? speak up , or she gets two more demerits . emily : the lobby 's rigged with explosives on a 60-second delay . if the swat team tries to enter the lobby , you would trigger the detonator before we had a chance to escape . james : oh , wow . bravo , intern emily . two credits and a gold star . i was hoping that you 'd become the teacher 's pet . [ scene_break ] [ max groans ] mateo : how are you feeling ? you okay ? max : yeah , i 'm all right . seven : show me your hands . max : hey , take it easy , all right ? i was just applying a little bit more pressure to the wound . seven : tough it out . mateo : can you see that this man is suffering ? seven : so ? say a prayer to ease his pain . looks like he could use one . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay , so , what is it exactly that you 're doing ? spinelli : i 'm looping the mainframe to override the emergency sequence that shut down the vault . lulu : okay , but you 're not seriously going to open the vault early , are you ? spinelli : i mean , come on , the dude did n't give me much of a choice . either i get him in there by 4 : 30 , or -- you 're toast . james : keep an eye on mr. and mrs. corinthos . i need to talk to six . [ scene_break ] jason : luke gave craig the wrong code . sonny : did you get the right one ? jason : uh - uh . sonny : get carly out of here . carly : no . sonny : whatever it takes . [ scene_break ] edward : when you refused to go into business , i called you weak . and i could n't wait to predict how fast you would fail . hmm . but lila -- she always believed in you . and she knew that you would make something of yourself , in spite of me . hmm . and she was right . i 'm proud of you , alan . i am proud of -- of all that you 've accomplished . and i 'm proud that you never turned your back on this family , no matter how many reasons tracy and i might have given you . and i am -- i am very proud that you 're my son . i do n't think i 've ever told you that before . which is why you need to wake up . so that i -- that i can tell you and know that you 're hearing me . oh , you -- you have to pull through this , alan . your family needs you . and -- so does your father . [ scene_break ] bobbie : well , your rescue of alan -- it 's all over the news . luke : oh , i hope he makes it . bobbie : yeah , so do i . you did the right thing . luke : yeah , well , i do n't care much about right or wrong . right now , i just care about getting lulu out of there . bobbie : what can you do at this point ? luke : i do n't know . that 's the question , barbara jean . lucky and i got inside , but then we came out again to take care of alan . then i offered myself and a bogus code in exchange for the hostages . you can see how that worked out . and now we 're running out of time . i think as soon as they find out that the code does n't work and they 're not going to get what they want , all the hostages are expendable . i -- i got to see if i can find something else out . bobbie : okay . [ scene_break ] maxie : how could you take a job that could get you killed when you have someone waiting for you at home ? three : it 's not like that . i mean , there are no strings , no commitments . maxie : do n't you want to be with someone who cares about you ? three : it 's easier when there 's no expectations . maxie : oh . so you have no problem with being used ? three : well , we 're using each other . i me , the difference is , is we 're upfront about it . i mean , not like that guy lucky you were with . i mean , you deserve better . maxie : now you sound like my stepdad and my sister . three : you talk about them a lot . but you barely talk about your mom . maxie : yeah , well , my mom has n't been around a lot . in some ways , she 's a lot like you . hates to be tied down , always looking for something better . three : what 's wrong with that ? maxie : nothing at all if you want to end up alone . but i don � t . i want to fall in love with someone and have it last . just once . [ scene_break ] skye : it 's getting late . you should get some sleep , okay ? lorenzo : are you leaving ? skye : i 'll just be out in the hall . what do you want ? ric : take it easy , skye . i 'm not the enemy here . if anything , you probably could use my help . skye : i doubt it . ric : look , whoever hired alcazar to move that shipment is n't just going to give up and walk away . they 're going to want an update . and i do n't think it reassures them when you do n't answer the phone . skye : what am i supposed to say , ric ? `` sorry , but your sensitive shipment is in lockdown in a hotel surrounded by police , `` or how about `` lorenzo ca n't remember the code he programmed into the self - destruct timer `` ? ric : listen to me . by now , they know that this transaction has gone wrong . they 're going to do whatever they can to manage the fallout by making sure that that briefcase is not traced back to them . if that means killing alcazar and letting the hostages die , i think that 's an acceptable loss to them . [ scene_break ] carly : i am not going anywhere without you and lulu . sonny : you can get carly out of here . all you got to do is wait till craig leaves the lobby again . walk her towards the offices and get her out the back . carly : there 's another way . if we can figure out the code , we can use it as leverage against craig . jason : 7 - 6 - 7 . sonny : do those numbers mean anything to you ? carly : no , why would they ? sonny : because you used to be married to alcazar . maybe , you know , the code means something to him -- an anniversary , a birthday or something . [ scene_break ] lulu : it 'd be better for all the hostages if the briefcase stayed in the vault . spinelli : okay , my mission was you , not them . lulu : well , what about sam ? do n't you care what happens to her ? spinelli : stone cold wo n't let anything happen to sam , just like i 'm not going to let anything happen to you . [ scene_break ] james : if the briefcase is an equinox , then alcazar could have reset the timer . it could have self - destructed in the vault . six : it 'll be fine . james : do you know how much money we could lose if the contents were reduced to ashes ? [ scene_break ] sam : when the vault is opened , it 's going to be chaos in here . you 're not going to have time to think . you need to run straight to jason and he 'll get you out . elizabeth : what about you ? sam : i 'm going to be okay . you need a doctor . the priority is you and your baby . james : you two are becoming a dangerous liability , one that i ca n't afford . james : it 's time to separate you from the flock before the rest of the sheep go astray . six -- sonny : hey , man ? james : bring mrs. corinthos along . that 'll give her a chance to say goodbye to her husband . if sweet sam does anything to earn her last two demerits , hold off on her punishment . i 'll do the honors myself . [ scene_break ] mateo : here , up . max : yeah , i 'd rather be able to see what 's going on . besides , if i lie down , i might go to sleep . i 'm not liking my chances of waking up . seven : aw . does n't look like your prayers are working , father . what happened ? i thought you priests were supposed to have a direct line up to god . maybe the lord does n't like that picture you got on your neck . mateo : it 's of my brother manuel . he lived and died by violence . i would have , too , had i not found the lord . you see , it serves as a reminder . seven : that you 're a coward ? [ scene_break ] lulu : spinelli , i really appreciate what you 're trying to do for me , but there is no way that i can leave here without my brother and elizabeth . spinelli : come on . we 've been over this blond one , okay ? i mean , if -- if we get a chance to run , we run . stone cold -- lulu : i do n't care about stone cold 's plan . there 's no way that jason can save everyone in this room . he needs our help . [ scene_break ] edward : do n't you ever knock ? alice : well , i heard dr. q was out of surgery . how 's he doing ? edward : well -- um -- monica is afraid that alan may be too weak to recover . so of course , it fell to me to come in here and -- and try to talk some sense into him . alan has to hold on for monica . alice : and for you . edward : well , in a manner of -- of speaking , yes , maybe . alice : dr. q knows how much you love him . i mean , you may never say the words , but he knows . and for all the bickering and backstabbing and plotting against one another your family does , there 's love underneath it all . i 've seen it -- real love , no matter how twisted it may appear . tracy : can i be alone with him ? edward : take as long as you need , dear . tracy : it 's okay , wake up . you 're about to get the one thing you have waited your entire life for . [ scene_break ] bobbie : it is freezing out here . hey , why do n't we take a break , and we 'll go back to kelly � s and warm up ? georgie : what if they let people out ? i kind of -- i want to be here . bobbie : yeah , but you know what ? if they let them out , these people are going to need to do their jobs , so why do n't we just get out of the way and let them do it ? georgie : hey -- um -- do you want to go to kelly � s with us ? dillon : uh -- i think i 'm going to stay a little longer . georgie : okay . [ scene_break ] patrick : luke , i heard on the radio you ran up to the lobby doors and tried to make a deal . what happened ? luke : nothing . i failed . [ scene_break ] carly : no flirtatious comment ? do n't tell me your mood 's gone south just like your exit plan . james : it 's possible to be too clever for your own good . just ask your husband . sonny : you were n't worried about the hostage revolt . you wanted me here , because you need me , after all . james : i think you two should take this opportunity to say your goodbyes , because if i found out that i do n't need you , michael corinthos jr. , someone will be back to put a bullet in both your heads . sonny : that would be the biggest mistake you could make , mr. craig . because you need me to get into that briefcase . james : you 're bluffing . sonny : you better hope not . i 'm the only chance you got to get what you came for . i know -- i know the code . james : so do i , thanks to lulu 's father . sonny : luke would 've said anything to keep you from killing his child . he gave you six numbers , right ? but not the code to disarm the briefcase . james : we 'll see . come on . sonny : `` we 'll see . `` carly : what are we going to do now ? [ door closes ] carly : you do n't know that code any more than luke did . sonny : you know it . carly : what are you talking about ? i do n't know it . sonny : you used to talk to alcazar , he said things to you . carly : he never told me a six - digit code for programming exploding briefcases , sonny . sonny : carly , you know more than you realize . [ scene_break ] tracy : all right , alan , you and i have spent the majority of our lives competing for daddy 's love . [ tracy chuckles ] tracy : this time , you really outdid yourself . a heart condition ? i would 've gone for something a little more original , but i have to admit -- it worked brilliantly . you had daddy in here singing your praises and whining for forgiveness . wake up . you 're going to want to savor every minute . besides , if you leave now , i win . and i know you would n't want that . so just wake up ! and make me regret telling you how much i love you . [ scene_break ] patrick : what about trying to negotiate again ? luke : there 's no negotiating with this bastard , doctor . if he does n't get what he wants , i believe he will kill the hostages . the cops are just waiting for the vault to open , hoping that that distracts him long enough to get some of those people out . patrick : which works for your daughter , but not for robin -- she can barely move . her only chance is if that psychopath releases her . luke : the only thing craig wants is the code to disarm the self - destruct mechanism on that briefcase , and alcazar could only remember three of the six digits . patrick : thanks to me . [ scene_break ] robin : patrick ? emily : robin ? honey , he 's waiting right outside . how are you feeling ? robin : uh -- pain 's back . it 's just it 's -- i do n't know . it 's different than before . emily : how ? robin : oh -- like it 's coming from far away . nikolas : you just need to hang on a little longer , okay ? robin : you know how much blood i lost in me . emily : robin , you 're going to live . you 've come too far to give up now . [ scene_break ] seven : your brother 's soul is burning in hell and here you are wasting your life , praying for his lost soul ? i 'm not sure which one of you is more pathetic . max : father ? father ? [ scene_break ] lulu : okay , okay . what is all this ? spinelli : um -- okay . i -- i generated an algorithm to reset the internal timer . i 'm tricking the vault into opening early . lulu : wow , you really are the assassin of cyberspace . spinelli : the jackal appreciates your praise . lulu : so if you can trick the vault into opening early , can you do the exact reverse ? spinelli : only with , like , two clicks of a button . why ? lulu : because we need to stall . there 's no way that mr. craig is going to keep us alive once he gets his hands on the briefcase . [ scene_break ] [ elizabeth moans ] jason : if anything goes wrong and you get a chance , you head straight for the door . sam ? warn the police . sam : no . jason : just wait for my signal . james : oh , is n't this cozy . [ scene_break ] tracy : and another thing -- you are the only one that knows how to manage daddy -- and monica , for that matter -- and without you here , by the way , she will throw us right out on the street . i do n't know why you gave her that house . you never should have , and after all these years , you still owe me a decent explanation for why you did it . oh , looky here -- right on cue . monica : i have to check on him . tracy : of course you do . you know , monica , you have never been a very good wife to my brother . for some reason , he loves you . give him a reason to go on living . monica : she 's right , you know . i have been a really lousy wife . and if you die , it 's going to be all my fault . [ scene_break ] three : so what were you doing here tonight ? maxie : i work at the boutique . it 's the only store in town that sells couture . three : oh , right -- fashion . maxie : high - end fashion , all of the hottest designers . three : do you like working retail ? maxie : well , it 's not like i have a lot of options . i 'm not smart like my sister or driven like my cousin . pretty much , the only thing i 've ever been really good at is lying , which is exactly why this job is perfect for me . i have no problem telling people why they need to buy some extremely expensive outfit that really should only be worn by an anorexic model from milan . and , who knows ? maybe in a few years , i 'll make manager . three : why would you want to do that when you could be so much more ? [ scene_break ] james : if were you , i 'd be very , very careful . you see , sweet sam is a treacherous little thing . one minute she 's smiling at you , and the other , she 's slitting your throat . go check on the computer kid 's progress and remind him that he 's on the deadline to open the vault . james : you trying to work one of my team ? elizabeth : it -- it 's not sam � s fault . i was just asking for some water . james : well , then , i 'm going to have to punish you . from now on , i 'm going to make you responsible for her behavior . if she steps out of line , you get her demerits , and believe me , they add up very quickly . so i think it would be in your best interest and your child 's to discourage sam from cooking up any mischief . do i make myself clear ? [ scene_break ] seven : what 's with the look ? mateo : i 'm praying for your soul . [ seven snickers ] seven : pray for yourself . mateo : oh ! max : hey , why do n't you leave him alone ? seven : come on , padre . max : go ahead , father . seven : you want a bullet in the other shoulder , or maybe one in the head ? huh , father ? turn the other cheek . i dare you . [ scene_break ] carly : there 's no way we 're going to be able to figure out that code . sonny : did alcazar have a plane or a yacht , or maybe even a car with the numbers 7 - 6 - 7 ? carly : not that i know of , no . sonny : okay , you did n't want to go with jason , so you 're going to have to just , you know -- carly : jason is not just going to take me and leave you and everyone else here , and you know it . sonny : please , carly , just think of the past . it could be the key to solve this . carly : oh . sonny : what the hell are you doing ? carly : i am trying to call for help . sonny : mr. craig 's people turned off all the phones except in the lobby . carly : yeah . well , maybe they forgot one . oh , great . sonny : what 'd i tell you ? carly : no dial tone . you told me , i know . sonny : of course i did . carly : sonny , you are not listening to me , okay ? there is nothing from my past with lorenzo -- no phone number , no bank account , no anniversary that starts with 7 - 6 - 7 . sonny : okay , listen to me . [ carly sighs ] sonny : what if the numbers are n't really numbers -- they 're letters ? [ scene_break ] monica : i tried to stay detached -- i did . i thought i could focus right on the problem a not think about the person that was on that operating table . but i couldn � t . i looked at you and i froze . i 've never done that . i wanted so badly to fix you , alan , and i could n't do it . i am so sorry , because i do n't know now if anybody can . your heart 's a mess , you know ? well , sure you know . you know because i 've broken it enough times -- that 's for sure . all the affairs , and all the lies . and not just to you -- to myself . and it has taken way , way too long for me to realize that you -- that you are and always have been the love of my life . i was going to the hotel to tell you that . and now i do n't know that i 'll ever get the chance . alan : monica ? monica : alan ? oh .

[ scene_break ] sam : where did you get all this knowledge about cars and police procedures ? elizabeth : i 'm just trying to help nikolas . sam : really ? because everything you were spouting off -- it just sounded so logical and clinical and vaguely illegal , and i was just wondering , you know , who do we know like that ? and jason was at the scene of the accident for no good reason , so maybe i need to have lucky check into that angle a little harder . [ scene_break ] ian : it 's marked `` nh08 `` -- it 's for liver damage . it 's available in certain facilities in south america and got on the black market for the troops . robin : why ? ian : well , it 's been known to be an immune boost , as well as an adrenaline enhancer . anyone can be a hero on one of these , and it only has a few side effects . robin : bring me up to date . ian : well , it sometimes starts to interfere with your sleep patterns , and if taken regularly , your body begins to secrete a sweet smell in the trenches -- that ca n't be all that bad , now , can it ? maxie : oh , my god .

jax : i guess i really should n't be surprised at this . any chance to jump back into bed with sonny , right ? carly : who i sleep with is none of your business . you lost that right when you lied to me . jax : oh , that is just great , carly . what a wonderful mother you are . carly : go to hell , jax . jax : josslyn would be so proud of you . it took you , what , oh , 24 hours to completely disregard everything we ever talked about after michael got shot ? carly : be careful bringing up michael 's welfare when you did everything you could to expose him to a police investigation . jax : the investigation was already underway , and he was always the suspect . carly : you knew about it ! sonny : give it up , jax . you lost it . accept it . you threw away your family . you got no one else to blame but yourself . [ scene_break ] dante : you know , i 'm starting to think that the only reason why you want me on the pcpd is because i 'm sonny 's son . it 'd be pretty convenient for you guys . mac : i 'm offering you the job because i know what kind of cop you are . i 've seen your work , and i respect it , dante , regardless of who your father is . look , you said you want to nail sonny . well , this is the best way . if we get michael to testify that he saw sonny kill claudia , it 's a guaranteed conviction . dante : but i 've already got that with the evidence i 've already provided . mac : it 's a strong case , but it 's still circumstantial . michael 's testimony would change that . dante : i just -- i want to try to find a way to stop involving michael in this . he 's been through enough already . mac : you 're not thinking like a cop right now . you 're thinking like michael 's brother and sonny 's son . [ scene_break ] lulu : i do n't think i 'll be needing those , but you should definitely use them with spinelli . maxie : are you sure you just do n't want to take them anyway ? it 's always better to be prepared . lulu : um , dante just had a bullet removed from his chest . i do n't think we 'll be having sex , even if he wanted to . maxie : if he wanted to ? lulu , he is a man , and that man has a sex drive . whether he 's injured or not , sex . how romantic would it be if your first time together was in a hospital bed ? it would almost be like you helped him recover . lulu : yeah ! and then , i could give him cardiac arrest . i just do n't think that this is worth the risk . we 've waited this long . we can wait a little longer . maxie : oh . so , even if dante wanted to have sex , you would just say no . lulu : i 'm saying that we are both adults , and we 're doing the responsible thing , and there 's plenty of time for -- what ? maxie : there 's more to it than that . you 're , like , trying to avoid having sex with him .

[ sighs ] mac : your father and his organization are the biggest problem facing this city . that means we go after them and take them down by whatever legal means that present themselves . [ scene_break ] dante : okay . i have no problem going after sonny , as long as it 's done by the book . but you and your department have been trying to nail him for years with no results . i do n't want to be part of any personal vendetta . mac : personal vendetta ? dante : you try to bully michael into a confession , getting him to testify against his father ? to me -- that crosses a line , in my book , especially when we 've already established a pretty solid case against sonny . mac : you should know michael came into the station earlier and offered a full confession . he said he killed claudia to protect his mother and sister . we both know , dante , that he was trying to protect his father . so i sent him home and kept it off the record . dante : okay . michael does things like that to try and impress sonny . he probably thinks that if he saves sonny , he 'll get some credibility . mac : and how sad is that , huh ? trying to prove yourself to your father by trying to commit perjury ? there 's no personal vendetta here , all right ? i 'm not trying to persecute sonny 's family . i just want to bring him to justice . and i could use a good cop like you on my team , as long as you play by my rules . dante : i need your word that me being sonny 's son does n't factor into our work . mac : you got it . [ scene_break ] jax : the fact that you 're defending sonny , knowing the kind of man he is and the threat he poses to the kids really says a lot about who you are , carly . now that you 've trashed everything , i hope you 're happy . carly : i 'm not the one who lied , jax . i 'm not the one who snuck around and did everything i possibly could to make sure the father of my boys went to prison . that was you . you are the one who made it impossible for me to trust you . jax : oh , but you trust sonny , the man who 's a threat to his own children ? he shot his own son point - blank . sonny : i did n't know he was my son , but you did . i would n't have shot dante if i had known the truth . of course , you knew the truth , and you did it for your own stupid reasons . hope it was worth it , jax . jax : i did what i had to do to protect my family . and it seems like i 'm the only one who ever cared about them . carly : you put michael at risk . you put my son at risk , jax . and now you 're telling me that you did it to protect our family ? that 's not true . it 's another lie . jax : oh , it does n't really matter now , does it , carly ? 'cause clearly our family and our baby girl mean as little as our vows . so go ahead and do whatever you want , because i do n't care . go ahead and sleep with sonny . [ door opens ] sonny : you know he 's expecting you to chase after him . [ door shuts ] sonny : i appreciate you still have my back . i know that i 've caused you and jax a lot of trouble . carly : you loved every minute of this . sonny : well , yeah . i got to admit . but look , you know , jax and i do n't mix very well , and the fact that he tried to get me arrested does n't surprise me . at least he 's consistent . carly : he 's consistently lied to me , that 's for sure . sonny : i always thought you deserved better . i mean , he thinks he 's god 's gift , and that you should be grateful to have him , and if he knew you the way i know you , he should be on his hands and knees begging for forgiveness -- carly : you 'd never , ever do that . ever . sonny : no , no . i would n't .

sonny : i want everything the zaccharas are in control of . shawn : that sounds like a smart plan . except the last i checked , the guy had a wife . i mean , you want any of johnny 's legitimate assets , you 're gon na have to go through connie . diane : you kidnapped your husband , you assaulted starr manning , vehicular assault on one ellen trout , the woman you ran over in the fog -- connie : that was an accident . she was standing in the middle of the road , diane . diane : yes , but you were in the middle of committing a felony , which means that any -- any ensuing damage you are responsible for . you 're culpable , including all the damages to miss trout and mr. mitchell . connie : you mean the death of my son ? i never meant to hurt him . diane : okay . there 's no way that the prosecution can prove that you lured this vehicle , this other vehicle , you enticed it to follow you , so i am fairly certain that i can get the manslaughter charge dismissed . connie : which means i wo n't go to prison ? diane : no . because the other charges also carry prison time , and there 's a lot of evidence against you . connie : that 's what i 'm paying you for , diane , so you can come up with a strategy . diane : already done . we pin it on someone else . connie : who ? diane : kate . mmmm ! this is microwaved ? connie : diane , look , if i claim that kate caused that accident , that means i 'm not integrated . they 're gon na send my ass right back to shadybrook . diane : that is one possible outcome , yes . connie : well , that 's not acceptable to me . we got to come up with another strategy . diane : i am perfectly capable of conceiving an alternate line of defense , but , connie , it 's gon na come cheap . and may i remind you that you are already on the hook , as it were , for many billable hours . connie : i do n't have the money right now . diane : well , certainly there 's somewhere you can turn . connie : there 's always johnny . johnny : 500 hours of community service . kristina : starting now . or as soon as my supervisor gets here . johnny : well , hey , come on , it could have been worse , right ? you did say connie wanted you brought up on attempted murder . kristina : she did , the day it happened . johnny : what 's changed ? kristina : all i know is that when connie showed up in court , she completely backed off . johnny : we talking about the same connie here ? connie : that 's it . i 'll get the money out of johnny 's account . diane : well , if you 're sure ... connie : hey , it 's community property , right ? he 's my husband . his accounts are my accounts . diane : [ chuckles ] matrimony -- the gift that keeps on giving . let me know when you can write a check that clears . connie : hey , hey , you 're not leaving . diane : connie , i have three rules for my very successful practice . number one , i scrupulously guard my client 's privacy . number two , i make no moral , no value judgments on my client 's actions . and number three , i bill on time . i expect payment on time . connie : all right , i 'll get you the money . diane : yes , because there 's no miller defense with no recompense . sonny : i do n't -- i do n't think it 's a good idea to involve connie . shawn : why ? 'cause you do n't want to ? sonny : because , uh , johnny 's marital assets is -- is separate from his territory . shawn : well , you do n't think he would put a couple of things in her name , make sure the feds ca n't touch it ? sonny : he 's too smart for that . he would -- he would have just buried , you know , his family holdings , that way connie ca n't get ahold of them . shawn : and you want me to dig them up . sonny : yeah , that 's right . and there 's something else i want you to do . i want you to find out who else is looking for it . shawn : you want me to hold them off . i can handle that . sonny : i have no doubt . shawn : [ sighs ] tomorrow . sonny : uh , how about tonight ? shawn : it 's valentine 's day , man . and nothing 's gon na keep me from spending it with the woman i care about . connie : oh , come on . what kind of accountant are you if you ca n't get money out of the grand keys ? all right . that 's what i like to hear . ah , spare me the details . just let me know when the check clears , okay ? ciao . sonny : mind if i sit down ? molly : this is wrong . rafe came to me for help , and you ca n't turn him in . alexis : you are such a compassionate girl , and that 's such a nice quality . however , helping the needy is not synonymous with harboring a fugitive . molly : okay . but rafe never should have been arrested . he told me he did n't do anything , and i believe him . why would he kill his own mother ? that just does n't make sense . alexis : well , sometimes , honey , things do n't make sense . sometimes people behave in irrational ways , like you are doing right now . molly : i disagree . helping an innocent person who 's been charged with a crime is totally rational . alexis : you let this boy , who is wanted by the police , into our home , into your bedroom . you let him babysit your sister 's baby , and then he got kidnapped ? rafe : do n't make this molly 's fault . okay , she trusted me with danny . i 'm the one that screwed up . alexis : i 'm not making this molly 's fault , the kidnapping part . i 'm not even making that part your fault . but you , my friend , are wanted by the police . molly : how can you be such a hypocrite ? you get paid to defend uncle sonny when you know he 's totally guilty most of the time ! rafe : molly , your mom 's right . molly : what ? you did n't do anything . rafe : no , i did n't , okay ? i would never hurt my mom . but running from the cops was a bad idea , okay ? and coming here and staying with you was even worse . molly : i told you , i wanted to help . rafe : okay , and i 'm grateful . but you 've done enough . i 'm ready to turn myself in . molly : well , can you at least represent him ? rafe : molly , no . you do n't have to do that . molly : she 's represented plenty of guilty people . she can represent somebody who 's actually innocent . is n't that what you tell me , mom ? that everyone has the right to a vigorous defense ? alexis : not that i do n't like my own words spat back at me , but i can not defend rafe because i 'm defending john mcbain , who he accused of killing his mother , so it 's a conflict of interest . molly : well , just let john mcbain get another lawyer . he has money . rafe does n't . he is all alone . rafe : i do n't need a lawyer . i did n't do anything , so they 're gon na have to let me go eventually . molly : is that how it works , mom ? rafe did n't do anything , so they 'll have to let him go ? alexis : get your coat . molly : if you 're going to the police station , i 'm coming , too . t.j. : happy valentine 's day . todd : john mcbain can not be at the police station because he was just right here . anna : and yet he 's nowhere to be found . todd : he was right here . we were struggling over the baby stroller . we heard sirens . we -- we looked to see if you knuckleheads were showing up . and when i turned back , he was gone . anna : which is why when we arrived , there was just you and the baby . todd : yeah . is that so hard to understand ? anna : no , it 's not hard to understand . todd manning , you 're under arrest for attempted kidnapping . you have the right to remain silent . anything you say can and will be used in a court of law . todd : i think you would have memorized that by now . anna : you , too . you have the right to an attorney and for that attorney to be present during questioning . if you desire and you can not afford one , one will be appointed to you . todd : i have lied to you . i have lied to everyone my whole life . you told me if i were honest with you that you would have stood by me . i 'm being honest with you now . i was not trying to steal that baby . i was trying to save that baby . so help me , that 's the truth . anna : do you understand your rights as they have -- todd : yeah , i get it . anna : go . mcbain : assuming everyone 's telling the truth , this caleb has now killed alison barrington , bud carlson . and since professor mosser was my alibi , he 's killed him , too . dante : do you know how ridiculous this is , this theory ? you know how much evidence is against you right now ? mcbain : forget the evidence . dante : okay . mcbain : you 're my partner , man . you know me . dante : i do ? how long have i known you ? mcbain : you tell me , huh ? how long did i know you when ronnie dimestico framed you for beating all those women , huh ? when all the evidence pointed to you as a dirty cop , i still joined up with you to help you find your wife . look , dante , i 'm ... i 'm not asking you to believe me . i 'm just asking you to give me the same chance . and i can do a hell of a lot more good out there than i can in here . you got to let me go , man . kristina : just as i was about to enter my plea , connie showed up and told the judge that it was all a complete misunderstanding . johnny : a complete misunderstanding that -- that trashed her office . kristina : she actually said i only had that bat because i was trying out for some , uh , corporate softball team . johnny : wow . [ chuckling ] and the d.a . bought that ? kristina : he seemed pretty pissed . but , i mean , what could he do ? the victim completely recanted her statement . johnny : i do n't believe it . kristina : that connie lied under oath ? johnny : no , that i believe . i ... [ sighs ] i 've seen connie do that myself . what i do n't believe is that why would connie lie to help anybody other than herself ? i mean , that -- i just do n't understand that . what would make her want to do something like that ? connie : to what do i owe the pleasure ? sonny : uh , i just -- i just wanted to let you know that , uh , kristina is starting her community service today . connie : ooh . i hope it 's not too harsh . sonny : she can handle it . um , anyway , thank you for backing off , you know , the charges . connie : you 're welcome . hope i 'm this lucky in my trial . sonny : diane 's the best . she 's gon na find a new way to , you know ... connie : oh , yeah . she already decided on that . she wants to blame kate for everything . sonny : you got a problem with that ? connie : yeah ! i got a problem with that . if we tell the judge i have an alter , i 'm going back to the funny farm , sonny . and who 's got time for that , huh ? want a cookie ? really good . sonny : huh . one way to celebrate valentine 's day . connie : oh , yeah . real romantic . sonny : [ laughs ] connie : well , let 's see , i 'm planning my defense in a diner , my husband 's in the slammer , and i 'm sitting here all alone . sonny : that makes two of us . t.j. : what 's going on ? why -- why is he here ? alexis : he 's leaving . you 're staying . t.j. : are you okay ? molly : yes , i 'm fine . really . t.j. : you know , i knew i should have came over as soon as i heard he escaped . molly : there was no need . i was never -- t.j. : but i knew he would come after you . molly : rafe did n't try to hurt me . t.j. : so , what ? did the guy break in for some milk and cookies ? molly : he did n't break in . i let him in . t.j. : why would you do that ? after i just called to warn you , you let him ... did you let him before i called or -- or after ? molly : when you called , rafe was already here . sam : oh , it 's cold out here . i do n't want you getting chilled . carly : i do n't get it . i do n't get why todd would go anywhere near danny again or why he would make up this crazy story about john mcbain . sam : you know , i 'm not sure how crazy it is . dante : you realize what you 're asking me to do here , john ? mcbain : not asking you to walk me to my car . just make yourself busy and look the other way . dante : [ chuckles ] mcbain : what ? you want this guy caught , do n't you ? dante : [ sighs ] mcbain : it 's time to pick a side , dante . do you believe me or not ? dante : let 's go . todd : well , for the first time in my life , somebody 's gon na have to believe me . mcbain : believe you about what ? todd : i saw you , john . i saw you kill heather , and i saw you try and take that baby . kristina : that day in court , connie was different . i mean , on the stand , she still sounded the same , being borderline obnoxious , running her mouth , and giving the d.a . plenty of attitude . but her motivation just did , like , a 180 . instead of her trying to bury me , she was trying to cover for me . johnny : so , something 's changed . kristina : i think she did it for my father . johnny : [ chuckling ] come on . kristina : you do n't believe it ? johnny : and if you do , i 've got a bridge to sell you . why the hell would connie ever help sonny ? she ca n't stand him . and the feeling 's mutual . ever since connie emerged , sonny 's wanted her in treatment and therapized so that she can go away and kate could resurface . kristina : i thought that , too . johnny : but you do n't anymore ? kristina : things just seem to be changing between them . connie : i do n't know why i 'm complaining . it 's not like i 'd be buying johnny candy hearts if he was n't in the slammer . hello ? earth to sonny . sonny : what ? connie : what are you thinking about ? thinking about kate ? it 's okay . you can say it . sonny : i was ... yeah , i was thinking about kate , and i was thinking about you . connie : and how i ruined everything ? sonny : i was putting things together , you know . it 's like ... and thinking back , it was , what ? valentine 's day last year you -- you were already in the picture . and i know -- i know that now . and you know what ? i 'm gon na be honest with you . i knew that then . i mean ... kate was different . and i ... i was so happy to just be together . i - i did n't -- i did n't question it . i did n't care what excuses she made . it did n't matter to me 'cause i just ... she was acting strange . and the whole thing , i just accepted it . and i was getting , you know , closer and closer to kate ... and you were part of it . connie : yeah . i was . i was just sitting on the sidelines wondering what the hell she was doing with her life . sonny : you hated me . connie : what a difference a year makes , huh ? molly : it 's not how it sounds . rafe was in trouble . he had nowhere else to go . he had just witnessed another murder . t.j. : or committed one . molly : no ! rafe swore to me it was n't him . t.j. : so , let me get this right . you believe him , but you lie to me . molly : look , i know i should have told you what was going on , but i was afraid you would turn him in , and i -- t.j. : yes , molly ! i would have turned him in ! just like your mother 's doing right now ! but you told her the truth . molly : well , yeah , i did n't really have a choice . t.j. : oh , yeah , figures . 'cause she noticed a fugitive spending the night . which ... he spent the night . he spent the night here , did n't he ? molly : yes , but not like that . he slept on the floor ! t.j. : he did ? molly : yeah . there is nothing going on with rafe and me . how can you even think that ? you know you can trust me . t.j. : i 'm really not so sure about that anymore . alexis : oh , diane , i need to speak to you . diane : honey , i 'm in a hurry . i just got a call from todd manning . apparently they have apprehended him again . alexis : i have a client for you . diane : never let it be said i did n't have time for a potential client . who 's the felon ? alexis : him . mcbain : what the hell are you talking about , manning ? anna : you know what ? that 's what i would like to know . let 's hear your story from the top , please . can -- let 's get him booked in . todd : it 's not a story . i showed up at pier 52 expecting a boat that would take me to a country with no extradition , but what i saw was detective mcbain with his hand around heather webber 's throat . and before i could react , he tossed heather into the water , and heather never resurfaced . anna : he threw her in one - handed ? todd : well , yeah . you 're a lot stronger than i gave you credit for . mcbain : what happened next ? todd : well , you know what happened next . we -- we struggled over the stroller , and then you said some incomprehensible garbage about keeping the kid , and -- and i do n't know . then the cops showed up , and you just disappeared . mcbain : what about danny ? is danny okay ? todd : yes ! danny is okay because i saved him -- from you ! mcbain : i 've been here the whole time . i 've been here the whole time . you got , uh , you got a station full of cops , and you got video surveillance to prove it , all right ? do you believe me now ? there 's someone else out there you need to be looking for . sam : john was arrested last night . he was accused of killing a woman named alison barrington and a cop named carlson . carly : wow . well , do you think he 's innocent ? sam : yeah , of course i think he 's innocent . he 's not capable of murder . carly : well , the police must have a reason -- sam : a simple case of mistaken identity . obviously it 's someone who looks exactly like him . carly : someone who looks exactly like him ? sam : yeah . carly : okay , well , does john have any idea about this person who looks exactly like him ? sam : nothing that he can prove , but todd 's theory backs up what john says . carly : i 'd like to believe todd . but it does n't matter because whatever happens to todd has nothing to do with me . i need to go . i have a date with josslyn tonight for valentine 's . sam : oh , nice . carly : yeah , we 're gon na make heart - shaped pizzas and eat cupcakes . sam : well , you two have a good time . carly : yeah . hey , happy valentine 's day , danny . just as handsome as your daddy . sam : is n't he ? carly : happy valentine 's day , sam . sam : you , too , carly . [ groans ] what do you say , big guy ? i think you and i are gon na have a really nice valentine 's day with ourselves . yeah , i should probably get you home . john . you scared me . diane : this is my potential client ? the penniless urchin who allegedly killed his mother then pinned the whole thing on john mcbain ? alexis : i see rafe 's reputation precedes him . i ca n't represent him . i 'm representing john . diane : so naturally you thought of me . alexis : pro bono work is an important element of every responsible law firm . diane : yes , alexis . and as much as i want to participate in helping the greater good , my plate 's a little full right now . alexis : do you want to know who his mother was ? diane : who ? alexis : alison barrington . diane : of the main - line barringtons ? alexis : amanda barrington was her grandmother , so you know there 's a trust fund or 2 or 10 . whenever there 's a trust fund , i always think to call you . diane : well , my -- my ability to sniff out a retainer notwithstanding , why is it so important to you that this young man has representation ? alexis : it 's important to my daughter . molly : no , of course you can ... trust me . i 'm the same person i was when you met me . t.j. : oh , yeah . back when you trusted me , even though you did n't have a reason to . except , you see , that 's faulty logic . you see , i do pay attention . maybe you have n't noticed , but i 'm not some loser that you have to take a chance on anymore , molly . molly : i never said you were a loser . t.j. : i 'm your boyfriend ! and you went behind my back . and i ai n't talking about cutting class ! you broke the law to cover for a potential murderer . and somehow you still make me out to be the bad guy . molly : i 'm sorry , okay ? i 'm sorry . i do n't want to fight with you . t.j. : good . neither do i . that 's why i 'm leaving . happy valentine 's day .

[ scene_break ] maxie : you know what your problem is ? you need to see the hostages as people , just like you see me . three : no , i do n't . maxie : you know , i do n't have many girlfriends -- women do n't seem to like me for some reason -- but i did recently make one friend . her name is sam . she 's in love , trying to have a baby . i 'm pretty sure that 's what she would be doing right now if she was n't being held up in a lobby with your psycho partners . and then there 's nikolas . he just got his son back from a kidnapper , and he would probably be at home celebrating right now with the love of his life if he was n't here . and , yeah , i know it sounds corny to say `` love of his life . `` but nikolas and emily , they have this real - life , fairy - tale romance . did i mention emily 's in there , too ? so is my cousin , robin . she 's a doctor . robin 's life has real value , not just to me and my family or her boyfriend , patrick , but to the world . three : i do n't need to hear this . maxie : and then there 's elizabeth . i mean , i ca n't stand her , but it does n't mean i want her to die . i mean , she 's carrying lucky 's baby . not only would you be killing her , but you would be responsible for the death of an innocent , unborn child . three : it was n't supposed to turn out like this , all right ? maxie : how did you think it was supposed to be ? your boss gave you a mask and a gun and told you not to let anyone leave . three : it was a job -- five minutes , in and out . he made the plan we followed . there was n't supposed to be real flesh - and - blood people involved . [ scene_break ] luke : you 're not down with this . come on , lucky told me -- lansing 's screwed you over more than once . mac : what 's your point ? luke : my point is , do n't chain me out here while that idiot gets my daughter shot . no . officer : what 's that about ? det . rodriguez : spencer 's being detained by the pcpd . he 's a danger to himself and the hostages . he 's probably going to ask you to help him out . under no circumstances are you to do that . he 'll act on impulse and end up getting a bunch of people killed . officer : well , that 's the police department 's business , is n't mine . luke : thanks a lot , pal . maybe i can do something for you sometime . clown . god -- cops , huh ? [ luke laughs ] luke : you got any kids ? i got two . maybe you know my son , lucky -- he 's one of these stupid cops . i know -- what are you going to do ? i did my best . but my daughter , she 's 18 . she 's got her whole life ahead of her . i just want to make sure she lives to see it . she 's in there . come on , i 'm not one of these guys that 's going to go off halfcocked and get a bunch of people killed . i 'm not ! officer : i know who you are . luke : i 'll cover you , i swear . i 'm -- i 'll make sure that they think i got myself out of this . [ scene_break ] patrick : okay . glad to see you . this is a good start . we need to get a triage set up -- at least three tents and enough supply -- epiphany : it 's covered . patrick : look , i just put in the request a couple minutes ago . how could it be covered ? russell : we were already on our way . you 're not the only one who can see a potential for serious casualties , dr. drake . [ scene_break ] james : you 're missing all the excitement . the tattooed priest killed one of my men , but not to worry -- he was shot for his trouble . i knew you 'd want to come back and be a part of things . sonny : i 'll make you a deal . i told you that i know the code to the briefcase . i 'll give you the code if you let carly go . james : oh , wow . what have you done to win such devotion ? i mean , this man would lie to st. peter to protect you . carly : he 's not lying , he knows the code . james : well , then i take it to reason you know it , too ? carly : no , i do n't . james : well , there 's no way for me to find out if you 're really telling the truth . sonny : listen to me , luke spencer gave you three numbers . by the time he got to the fourth he was bluffing . james : and i have your word on that , do i ? sonny : the next number in the sequence was 4 . i 'll give you the last two once you release carly . james : oh , you 're quite a wheeler - dealer , are n't you ? sonny : the cops know you 're waiting for the vault to open . as soon as it does , they 're going to come get you , mr. craig . james : well , then how fortunate that the vault 's going to be opened earlier than they think . [ scene_break ] emily : do you want more vodka ? it might help the pain . robin : i do n't -- i do n't feel anything right now . emily : she 's getting weaker . nikolas : we ca n't count on this guy releasing us . when that vault opens , we 're out of time . emily : we 're not giving up . we 're going to get out of here somehow . nikolas : i ca n't stop thinking about spencer -- all the time i 've already lost with him . jax and carly took him , then colleen . i mean , my god , his first birthday is coming up . emily : hey , look at me . we 're going to be around to celebrate it , okay ? nikolas : not if we do n't come up with a plan , and i mean right now . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i 'm not sure if i just saved the universe or set us all up for certain death . lulu : you did what you had to do . spinelli : yeah , but the unhinged one seems totally psyched about the vault opening early . lulu : and you think whatever makes him happy is really bad for us . spinelli : yeah , i just -- i just hope i did the right thing . spinelli : uh -- blond one ? what are you -- what are you doing ? lulu : it 's my mom 's engagement ring . my dad gave it to me on christmas for safekeeping . and it 's a symbol of their love , and i only wear it on special occasions , and i feel like facing near certain death qualifies as special . i find it makes me feel closer to my mom . it may sound silly , but i feel like the ring connects us , like she 's watching over me . [ scene_break ] mateo : please do n't help me . i have to pay for my sins -- and for manny 's . i 'm sorry . sam : okay , i think it 's time for me to slip away . elizabeth : wait for jason 's signal . james : good news , ladies and gentlemen . thanks to our friends the jackal and michael corinthos jr. , our little gathering will come to an end in a matter of minutes .

[ scene_break ] alexis : any sign of sam or nikolas ? ric : we think we heard nikolas shout out to luke from the lobby . as far as sam 's concerned , no . sorry . but at least we know what the gunmen want now -- this briefcase that alcazar had stored in the metro court vault . we 're going to storm the lobby as soon as the lock releases . alexis : you ca n't storm the lobby , you could get everybody killed . you need to keep negotiating , ric . ric : oh , do -- do you think we have n't tried that , alexis ? the leader is not interested . he pretty much cut off communications right away . alexis : well , you ca n't just give up . it 's just like you -- you 're just going to give up . you do n't like half the people in there anyway , do you ? you especially hate my nephew and my daughter . ric : oh . you know what ? you should n't be here . alexis : i 'm fine . ric : no , you 're not fine . you know what ? you 're going . come on , come on .

[ alexis sighs ] russell : you are a fool . you should 've stayed in the hospital . alexis : my nephew and my daughter are in that hellhole . i 'm not going to sit in a hospital room on the other side of town waiting to find out if they 're alive or dead . [ scene_break ] james : the police are most likely planning their rescue attempt at 5 : 30 a.m. , just when the vault is scheduled to open . but we 've got a surprise for them , do n't we ? it 's going to unlock sooner than that -- correct , mr. spinelli ? spinelli : yeah , any minute , dude . james : yeah , which gives me ample time to secure the briefcase and open it . that 's where mr. corinthos comes in . if what is in the vault is actually an equinox case , mr. corinthos will give me the rest of the code . if it is n't , then i stick to my original plan . i 'll blow this lobby to kingdom come and use the many deaths to cover my escape . there 's a chance that some of you might survive the blast , but no chance at all that you 'll survive a gunshot wound to the head . so keep behaving , and pray to whatever you believe in that michael corinthos jr. is telling the truth for once in his life . lulu , jackal , come with me -- now . faster . out . [ scene_break ] jason : wait for my signal . sam : okay . emily : if mr. craig blows up the lobby , we 're going to be lucky to get out of here alive . robin 's not going to stand a chance . nikolas : well , when the time comes , i 'm just going to pick her up and run . okay ? stay -- stay close behind me . [ scene_break ] four : why are you in the door ? spinelli : uh -- you -- you see that keypad ? i have to tap in a manual command . james : do it . if either you or corinthos are playing games with me , i 'll make sure lulu dies slowly and painfully . [ scene_break ] three : you have to believe me . i do n't want you to get hurt . maxie : then just stick to what we talked about . hand over the briefcase and -- [ vault unlocks ] three : it 's too soon to come open . james : get in . well done , mr. jackal . sorry about the lockdown . now , hand over that case . three : the self - destruct is armed . there 's no way of knowing how much time is left . james : an equinox indeed . fortunately , we have a hostage to pressure sonny into giving me the code . and if he 's not on the level , this beautiful , young lady dies . well ? what are you waiting for ? hand it over . james : thank you . [ scene_break ] russell : breathe . [ alexis coughs ] russell : obviously , you 're not to be trusted . breathe . [ coughing ] russell : how long after i got called away before you checked yourself out of the hospital ? alexis : two minutes . russell : breathe . alexis : my daughter and my nephew and the father of one of my daughters is in there , and this is where i need to be . russell : quiet . what good are you doing them sitting here in the cold , inviting a secondary infection d making yourself even weaker ? alexis : doctor , you tell me that your wife died of cancer . if she were alive , and you were being held hostage in that building , would she be here right now and would you blame her ? russell : stay here , get your breath . luke : hey , way to go , natasha . alexis : what did you do ? luke : nothing but ask that dimwit d.a . a couple of reasonable questions . now i 'm -- i 'm , you know , looking at my options , and you happen to be one of them . we both got daughters that we need to get out of there . you can help me make that happen . [ scene_break ] ric : okay , let me get this straight . so we have to storm the lobby at 5 : 30 a.m. because that 's when the vault automatically opens , the theory being that we 're cutting craig 's men off between the vault and the lobby area . now , he 's going to know what our strategy is , so we 're going to cut the power 15 minutes before we go in to shake him up a little bit and make him think that we 're actually going in early . is that about it ? captain : yes , sir . mac : after , we fire the smoke grenades and the tear gas through the windows , secure the lobby and the surrounding offices , then move toward the vault . lucky : okay , wait a minute , elizabeth is pregnant . tear gas could hurt the baby . mac : we have no choice . lucky : then we do n't do it . captain : it 's part of the protocol . mac : lucky , i know you 're concerned about the baby , okay -- robin 's in there , too . her injuries must 've compromised her breathing , but there are other people in there that are counting on us to give them every possible chance at survival . [ scene_break ] james : watch that one . i may need her in a minute . [ scene_break ] sam : okay , as soon as jason gives me the signal , i 'm out of here . [ scene_break ] james : you were right -- it is an equinox . but if you 're lying about the access codes , you better tell me -- if you do n't want to have carly 's blood on your hands . sonny : i already told you what you needed to know . james : very well . then give me the last two numbers . sonny : i will ! you got to release everybody . james : you trying to change the rules midstream ? she will shoot carly as easily as she shot the priest . now , give me the complete code ! [ scene_break ] mac : whoa . some new doctor at the hospital -- ford ? -- he 's concerned you might present a problem in triage . patrick : yeah , and as he was so quick to point out , i am off the clock . so my time here is personal and i have every right to it . mac : that 's what i told him . do n't make me regret it . do you need something ? patrick : mac , i -- i want to go in . i need to be the one that carries robin out . mac : lose that thought . this is a police action , not some amateur free - for - all where people get a number to race in after loved ones . the only people going in that building will be law enforcement . patrick : listen to me , if -- if she 's still alive , then she 's holding on to anything she 's got . when we get the signal -- or whatever -- it 's going to be chaos in there -- cops looking for gunmen , hostages running for the exits , and what -- what 's robin going to do ? nobody 's going to carry her out . you 're her uncle . how can you not care about what she needs ? mac : what she needs is for you to stay alive , not get caught in the crossfire . look , in this instance , you 're not equipped for the job . as soon as i get a handle on the situation , i 'll send in a search - and - rescue team -- patrick : mac , robin does n't have time for that . mac : i have already cuffed luke spencer to a drain pipe to keep him from going off halfcocked . do n't make me do the same to you . [ siren ] [ scene_break ] luke : i got to pick the lock here . check your pockets , see if you got a ballpoint pen or a hairpin or something like -- alexis : oh , sure . let me just take the hairpin out of my wig that i use to embed into my bald head . luke : i 'm sorry , but you 're going to have to scold me later . right now i need your help . alexis : why should i ? luke : because the idiot that put a mortar through your family is about to get them killed -- along with my daughter , daughter - in - law , and a whole bunch of other people . or does `` storming the lobby at dawn `` sound like a great solution to you ? listen , natasha , those people took that lobby 12 hours ago . that was n't their original plan . they planned to get in there and get out . but what they came for , they could n't get , and they have waited -- with all of port charles ' heavy artillery surrounding them . that means they 're not going to leave till they get what they want . that also means that those hostages could very well be collateral damage . alexis : so you 're going to run in to the rescue ? luke : are you going to trust their lives to ric lansing or me ? russell : i said `` catch your breath , `` not `` free a felon . `` luke : hey , mind your own business . if you had spent more time thinking than -- than barking at good - meaning medical personnel and cancer patients , you 'd know that if you freed me , i could help you keep the death toll down ! epiphany : do we look like prison guards to you , or police officers ? we are medical professionals gearing up to save lives . now , you might not like it , but the only contribution that anyone wants you to make around here is to sit there chained to that drain pipe and keep your mouth shut ! if you do n't , i can -- and i will -- sedate you . ric : that wo n't be necessary , epiphany . you just continue to focus on your work . i 'll deal with mr. spencer here . epiphany : good luck . [ ric sighs ] ric : i had a feeling that you would ask alexis to free you . you know , in case it was n't obvious to you , she is debilitated on chemo and she really should n't be out here . alexis : which should show you how important this is to me and to him . would n't you do the same thing if molly were in there ? now , stop acting like such an ass and unchain him and let him go get his daughter ! [ scene_break ] skye : wo n't be long now . a couple more hours , it 'll be over soon . lorenzo : tell me again how that 's going to happen . skye : at 5 : 30 -- ahem -- the hotel vault will automatically open , and either mr. craig will get his briefcase and get away , or he 'll get caught . i 'm not quite sure how i feel about that . lorenzo : what do you mean ? skye : on the one hand , i want craig arrested . i want him tried and convicted and put away for all the fear and terror he inflicted on those poor , innocent people . lorenzo : skye , you said `` on the one hand , `` as if you want him to get away equally as much . skye : the other outcome would be better for us . if craig could somehow get past the police and vanish with his precious briefcase , there 'd be a glimmer of a chance that we 'd be safe . those covert - ops people you were just talking to -- they would n't feel like they 'd have to clean up loose ends . they could deny any knowledge of the transaction because there 'd be no proof . lorenzo : there 's only one flaw in your logic . for craig to get away , those hostages would have to die .

[ scene_break ] robin : this is much better , right ? all warm and cozy . it 's hard to believe that only a few hours ago we were ... stuck in a blizzard . but that 's one of the many things you are going to learn about life , my little girl ... is that things can turn around in a second ... for better or for worse . but let 's -- let 's concentrate on the better for right now . i think the lesson in this for both of us , really , is ... that when all hope seems to be lost , you just have to keep going and fight your way through it . yeah , that 's what happened tonight . tonight , we had our first really scary night together . and you got sick , and our car broke down . we got lost , and your daddy was trapped in a fire . but now everything 's okay . here we are , warm and cozy together . everything turned out all right . [ scene_break ] matt : is it just me or is there some weird tension going on here ? nadine : it 's not just you . rebecca : i apologize . just a little -- ah -- unsettling . apparently i resemble mr. -- um -- nikolas : nikolas cassadine . rebecca : right . i seem to bear an uncanny resemblance to mr. cassadine 's late wife . nadine : i can vouch for that . and , uh , yeah , it is unsettling . um , i 'm a nurse . i 'd like to check your vitals , if you do n't mind . rebecca : no , i 'm fine . i 'm not so sure about him . nadine : were you hurt ? rebecca : he got knocked unconscious trying to save my life .

[ kate clears throat ] kate : oh . oh , you 're glad ? i guess i thought you 'd show more personal interest . something along the lines of , i do n't know , defying all the odds to sweep me off in a helicopter . it 's romantic , i know , but just goes to show old habits die kicking and screaming . sonny : carly and i -- we got stuck in a corridor . we could n't go back up , just down . olivia : all 's well that ends well , right ? that 's what matters . kate : if only it were that simple . olivia : you might want to lighten up just a scootch . kate : there are things that you and sonny do n't know . sonny : what is that supposed to mean ? kate : well , i suppose this is as good a time as any . [ door opens ] agent rayner : i 'm so sorry to interrupt . claudia : not a problem . agent rayner : the ambulance is here to transport you and miss howard to mercy . olivia : i want to ride with my cousin to the hospital . agent rayner : that 's not a problem . you , mr. corinthos , are going to have to answer a few questions . [ scene_break ] carly : i was so scared when i heard you took the helicopter up , and then when i saw it crash -- jax : yeah , yeah , it was a little windy . carly : how did you get out ? jax : lucky , i guess . carly : what were you thinking , jax ? you could have died . jax : i was trying to save you , carly . and you were n't even there . carly : that 's because when i saw the helicopter crash , i could n't wait around for someone to tell me what happened . i had to come find you . jax : all i could think about all night long was how much i love you . and my life only makes sense when i 'm sharing it with you . carly : say it again . jax : my life only makes sense when i 'm sharing it with you .

[ scene_break ] luke : you 're making a terrible mistake here , deputy . you know that i 'm entitled to a phone call . now , get me a phone and let me call my son . we 'll get this whole unfortunate attempt at rehabilitation resolved . he 's a cop , i told you . at the very least , he can get us put in the custody of the pcpd . look what that will do for you . it will get me out of your hair . you can go back to dating your sister full time . man : if your son wants you , he can get to finding you . luke : why are you talk -- you ca n't do that ! i demand a phone call . come back here . [ luke groans ] ethan : look , i do n't know you that well , but if i had to guess , i 'd say that bit about the cop son is true . luke : sad , but true . lucas lorenzo spencer jr. , fruit of my loins . somehow , he grew up to be a cop . he protects and serves . and all too often , he issues moral judgment from his high white horse . i do n't know how it happened . that remarkable kid that i raised -- how the hell did he turn into a handcuff- carrying , `` step out of the car , please `` officer of the state ? one of the great mysteries of my life . [ scene_break ] mac : i got all the messages you left every five minutes . what 's so urgent ? edward : mac , there was a young woman on the 10th floor at general hospital named rebecca shaw . and she could be emily 's twin sister . monica : yeah , her hair is a little lighter and it 's shorter , but other than that , mac , there are no physical differences . edward : we need to be reassured that she was evacuated safely , and you find her and then bring her here to us . mac : wait , let me see if i got this straight . you 're looking for a woman who looks like emily , and her name is rebecca shaw . and that 's all you 've got ? no address ? no reason why she was in the hospital ? or even if that 's her real name ? and you want me to magically pull her out of a hat and drag her to you ? edward : mac , listen to me . if you looked up , and you saw a young woman who looked exactly like georgie , and she suddenly was gone , you 'd move heaven and earth to find her , would n't you ? mac : i 'll see what i can do . monica : thank you so much , mac . mac : if there 's anything else , i have family to visit . monica : okay . edward : thank you , mac . we are going to find that little girl . monica : i really think the odds are against us , edward . edward : oh , monica , damn the odds . that little girl with dear emily 's face was put into our path for some reason , and we are going to find out what it is . [ scene_break ] carly : last time i saw sam , it was a few hours ago and she was fine . she was helping out , and she had n't been affected by the poison or anything . alexis : she 's still unaccounted for . jax : well , according to patrick , quite a few people are unaccounted for . anthony zacchara , trevor lansing , and jason and spinelli are still missing . alexis : well , trevor lansing has been heard form . his broken body is in the middle of the street . apparently he took a header off the roof . carly : what the hell is that about ? alexis : we have n't heard from anthony zacchara , and jason and spinelli and sam are unaccounted for . do you think they 're together ? carly : yeah , i think there 's a good chance they 're together . and jason 's never going to leave sam and spinelli in there . sam 's going to be okay . she will . lulu : oh , my god . thank god you 're okay . carly : yeah . are you okay ? lulu : yeah , i 'm fine , i 'm fine , i 'm fine , except i do n't know where johnny is .

[ scene_break ] [ jason and sam cough ] sam : ouch . jason , you 're bleeding . jason : i 'm okay . sam : no , you 're not okay . you 're going to have to get this re - bandaged . jason : we 've got to get rid of the poison . [ sam coughs ] sam : fortunately , that should n't be a problem , considering the whole tenth floor is engulfed in flames . jason : okay , just go . just go . [ scene_break ] sonny : do n't take this personal , but i -- i -- usually i do n't talk to fbi agents without my attorney . agent rayner : well , that 's fine , that 's fine . all you have to do is listen . sonny : okay . agent rayner : we 've got search and seizure warrants ready to serve on anthony zacchara 's residence , as well as several offices which we have reason to believe he utilizes as fronts . sonny : good for you . what does that have to do with me ? agent rayner : well , mr. zacchara is your father - in - law , and you 've run your own rather notorious organization . sonny : so ? agent rayner : well , it follows that mr. zacchara would want to get you into the family business . which means that there is a better than good chance that we 'll uncover enough evidence to charge you with various rico violations as well . you could be going away for a very long time . sonny : but i -- i have n't done anything wrong . why you looking at me like that ? agent rayner : you seem just a little bit over - confident , which leads me to believe that you may have entered into some sort of agreement with jason morgan . [ scene_break ] ethan : this is -- this is a rather astonishing development . i mean , you 're one of the most devout anarchists i 've ever met . must be weird to eat the holiday pudding face to face with the law . [ luke chuckles ] luke : weird is an understatement . it 's more than weird , it 's -- oh , well . what the hell ? who am i to judge ? he 's a grown man ; he can make his own choices . he 's probably a very good cop . ethan : you 're disappointed . luke : and i guess you 're going to tell me that i have no right to be disappointed , that i 'm just an irresponsible old drunk who hates cops and does n't care about his kids . ethan : no . all right -- i get it , all right ? i mean , a bloke like you would want his son to grow up to be a notorious outlaw . luke : right . ethan : yeah . luke : right . exactly . you do get it . i do n't know what happened . lucky and i had a spectacular start . but i do n't know .

[ johnny coughs ] [ scene_break ] rebecca : why do n't you go check on your friends ? nikolas : my friends ? rebecca : yeah . nadine , the doctor we rode in the ambulance with . nikolas : i 'm sure that they 're fine . you 're my concern at this moment . rebecca : just to review , you 're the one who got knocked unconscious . nikolas : yeah , so did you at one point this evening . rebecca : wow , we have so much in common . nikolas : look , i do n't know what your situation is in terms of medical insurance , but i 'd be happy to cover any costs that you may incur while you 're here . rebecca : i 'm sure that 's very nice of you . i 'm used to paying my own way . besides , you 're probably going to need more attention than i do . nikolas : well , that reminds me , i never got a chance to properly thank you for saving my life . thank you . rebecca : thought we called it even . nikolas : doctor , this is rebecca shaw . she needs a full battery of tests , no expense spared . rebecca : excuse me ? since i 've known you all of two hours , i think i can handle my own exam . can i have a little bit of privacy here ? nikolas : yeah , sure . doctor : all of two hours ? i thought that guy was your husband . [ scene_break ] sonny : let me give you a tip on your interrogation technique . when you tell someone that you plan to prosecute them for somebody else 's crime , they are not going to be as willing to cooperate . agent rayner : well , i appreciate you looking out for me . so why do n't i just take another approach -- total honesty . zacchara 's been doing very bad things for a very long time , and we finally amassed enough evidence to take him out of play . we 're not going to let that go to waste . now , at the end of the day , we would truly love to have zacchara . however , if he proves elusive , we will settle for another high - profile get that sends the same message to organized crime , and that would be you . and no special arrangement that you have with jason morgan will be enough to save you . [ door opens ] alexis : what is the status of the evacuation ? sonny : if you 're here to get answers you can use , forget about it , because agent rayner is onto his next high - profile case . now , i 'm wasting time here . i 've got a wife who 's at mercy . i 've got to get to her . if you 're going to arrest me , do it . if not , i 'm getting the hell out of here . [ scene_break ] claudia : what now ? olivia : consider me on record . i think this whole conversation , confrontation , whatever you want to call it , is a terrible idea . she insisted . kate : um , olivia ? olivia : yeah ? kate : thanks for bringing me over here , but i 'd appreciate it if you did n't treat me like a child with a behavioral disorder . olivia : i 'm treating you like a person who 's just been poisoned and that was before you got trapped in a fire . all right , you got 10 minutes . claudia : take her now , really , because you 're not going to hurt my feelings . olivia : 10 minutes . be succinct . kate : i know what you did . claudia : you sound like a bad movie . kate : no , you 're sonny 's worst nightmare . you had his son shot . now , please , do n't waste any time with denials . you heard olivia . we 've only got 10 minutes for me to figure out what i 'm going to do about it . [ scene_break ] ethan : did little lucas always have his -- luke : lucky . we always call him lucky because he got his mother 's hair . ethan : did he always have his eye on running the straight and narrow ? luke : oh , hell no . i have no idea when that happened to him . when he was a kid , he was the best second i ever had , truly . and when i say a kid , i 'm talking -- he used to run a con with me when he was five years old . ethan : now you 're exaggerating . luke : no , i 'm not . i swear to you . he was born with a gift , that boy . when he was 11 , he made his way all the way from vancouver to new york , clear across the continent , all along fleecing the pigeons all the way . ethan : how could a prodigy like that end up in law enforcement ? luke : i have no bloody idea . ethan : maybe -- maybe lucky just wanted to shake off the legacy , you know ? i mean , it ca n't be easy to follow in the footsteps of a man like you . luke : flattery -- that will get you nowhere . you still owe me $ 600 . ethan : it 's not flattery , man . i call it like it is . i mean , you live large and cast a mighty shadow . you know , i -- there 's this quote that always stuck with me . `` no one lives their lives full up , except for bullfighters . `` and i think you 're a bullfighter . i only hope that someday i have enough guts to say the same . luke : that 's impressive . you read hemingway . ethan : who ? luke : the author you just quoted . ethan : oh , no , i got it off a matchbook . [ both laugh ] [ scene_break ] claudia : you have to be , hands down , the most paranoid woman i have ever met in my life . were you born like that , connie , or did kate teach you that ? [ kate chuckles ] kate : maybe you honestly do n't know how devastated sonny is with michael 's shooting . i mean , after all , your marriage is a business arrangement , right ? i do n't imagine you two sit by the fire discussing your innermost feelings and thoughts . and if i had to make a bet , i 'd say michael is not an easy topic for you . claudia : you know what you are ? you 're a piece of work sitting there . i mean , michael 's -- michael 's shooting was horrible . that 's unspeakable . and it 's really disgusting that you would sit there and try to exploit it . kate : you know what 's disgusting , claudia ? arranging the shooting of an innocent child . claudia : i did not do that . kate : yes , you did . sonny has been suspicious for a very long time that ian devlin did not work alone . and he 's about to find out that he was right . you 're the missing link , claudia . devlin was acting on your orders . let 's see . you chose the time , mm - hmm . you chose the place . you chose the method . so michael 's shooting is on you . claudia : no . kate : i want sonny to have the closure that he desperately needs . my only issue , claudia , will be his reaction , and that will be to kill you . you see , i 'm not like you . i do n't want to be an instrument of death , even yours . unfortunately , i just do n't see a way around it . [ scene_break ] alexis : i realize that you are not directly responsible for the events tonight . that said , there are still people trapped in a burning building . a fire started as a direct result of the fbi losing track of a controlled substance . i would think that would command your attention , rather than him with something he did in the past that could clearly be taken care of in the future . agent rayner : do n't leave town . and if i were you , i 'd locate anthony zacchara . alexis : one more thing , if you do n't mind . we are all impressed with your single - minded dedication to this mission , but i , for one , would like to hear what , if anything , is being done to get the rest of the people , one of whom happens to be my daughter , out of the hospital . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay , why would johnny go back into the fire ? carly : he said he was looking for maxie , that she went in to find spinelli . so he went after her . [ scene_break ] mac : hey . robin : hey . mac : good news . patrick 's been evacuated . robin : where is he ? mac : pcpd for questioning . robin : what kind of questioning ? mac : robin , look , he was the only eyewitness to the poisoning in o.r . 2 , okay ? the fbi has to debrief him . now , as soon as they 're done , i 'll have a car drive him here immediately . if anyone screams favoritism , they can choke on it . robin : all right , good . mac : how 's my little grandniece ? robin : she 's doing so much better . her fever is down . her lungs are clearing . emma 's just going to be fine . are n't you ? mac : what about you ? sounds like you 've been through hell tonight . robin : i do n't know what i was thinking , getting out of the car in the middle of a blizzard and dragging emma through it . mac : well , if i had to guess , i 'd say you were thinking that forward motion was probably better than freezing to death in a broken down old car . robin : all i can say is thank god maxie and johnny showed up when they did . tonight could have turned out very differently . mac : yeah , well , you made the right choice under the circumstances , like you always do , so do n't be too hard on yourself , okay ? you and your beautiful little daughter are safe . it came out right . robin : i was telling emma the exact same thing . [ scene_break ] nikolas : hi . monica : hi . nikolas : rebecca is fine . i just left her in an exam room . monica : my god , she 's here at mercy ? nikolas : yeah , she 's right downstairs . edward : did she say anything ? monica : did she say where she was from ? edward : or where she 's living now ? nikolas : no , no , she did n't . edward : well , did you ask her if she were adopted ? nikolas : i did , but she did n't answer me . she certainly had no idea that there was this other woman , emily , who looked exactly like her . she does now . she 's a little overwhelmed by everyone 's reaction to her . edward : that 's understandable . monica : i just ca n't stand the thought that we 're going to run the risk of her just disappearing and we 're never going to see her again . nikolas : once things calm down a little bit , hopefully , we can get some answers . [ scene_break ] sam : we have to move fast , because there 's no telling how much longer we have power . jason : sam , we can keep going . i 'm okay . sam : that 's what you always say , jason . you said you 're just okay , but you know what that 's taught me ? jason : what ? sam : well -- here , you 've got to take off your jacket -- to ignore you -- [ jason groans ] sam : oh -- judge for myself . okay , you 're going to have to -- jason : oh , god . sam : just sit tight and let me take care of this , okay ? jason : okay . [ scene_break ] ethan : how long do you think we 're going to be stuck here ? luke : that depends on how accomplished you are with digging through a cement wall with a spoon . ethan : what do you mean ? luke : what do you say you and me bust out of this flea - bitten dog kennel ? [ scene_break ] jax : i can take the chopper up again . alexis : that is a horrible idea because the winds are worse than they were . the fire department has said the building is unsafe . you 're going to land your helicopter up there , jax ? the roof is going to collapse . jax : i 'm willing to take that risk . alexis : well , i 'm not . listen , we can assume that spinelli , jason , and sam are together . they 're smart enough to get on the stairwell . they 're not going to be waiting on the roof . jax : okay , okay , you 're right . i 'm just -- i just want to help you . alexis : you already have . [ scene_break ] lulu : oh , my god , maxie drives me crazy . i mean , i understand the impulse to want to help spinelli , but realistically , what does she think she 's going to do ? carly : i guess she thinks she 's going to go in there and grab him by his hair and drag him out kicking and screaming . lulu : so now -- and now johnny has gone after her , which is brave and wonderful , but , my god , that 's what the firefighters are for . i know i sound hateful and selfish . carly : i do n't blame you . vent all you want . i 'm fine with it . lulu : no , venting is not going to do anything . i need to go do something . carly : no , lulu [ scene_break ] johnny : okay , look , i get it that you care for spinelli , that you 're scared for him , but there is no way up to the 10th floor . all the stairwells are either blocked or collapsed , and the fire is still spreading . maxie : spinelli is not only my very best friend in the entire world , he is my essential person . i 'm not going to let him burn to death . johnny : spinelli is not as helpless as you think he is . besides , do you really think jason is going to up and leave him ? maxie : how should i know ? maybe . look , i do n't have blind faith in jason like spinelli does . i do n't think he 's made of kryptonite or faster than a speeding bullet or whatever . gosh , you know , that 's wrong . [ johnny coughs ] maxie : spinelli would be able to set me straight . he 's a superhero fiend , knows all about who 's -- who 's invulnerable , who needs a special outfit to help their powers . what if he dies ? johnny : he wo n't . look , as much as you need to get to spinelli , he needs to get to you that much more . there 's no way in hell he 's going to die tonight . but we got a pretty good shot , maxie , if we do n't get out of this hospital now . i can drag you , but our odds improve if you just cooperate . [ scene_break ] sam : have i ever told you that i really hate the sight of blood ? jason : only about 200 or 300 times . sam : well , i guess some things never change , huh ? i think this is going to do until you 're able to see a doctor . jason : it 's going to have to , because we do n't have much time . we got to find spinelli and get out of here . sam : all right . the question is where do we start ? jason : where do we start ? ow . spinelli left his laptop , which means there had to be some kind of emergency or he thought he was going to be right back . sam : wait a minute -- jason : what ? sam : he said something about a wi - fi signal kept dropping out , and that he was looking for a hard cable line -- jason : so he was looking for a utility closet . sam : i have no idea , but jason , why would he leave his laptop behind ? jason : well , he would n't want his computer near the fire . he would want to make sure that the closet was accessible first , then he 'd go back for his computer . okay , that 's where we 're going to start . let 's go . [ scene_break ] nikolas : so i must have pushed rebecca too hard . she ran away from me , took a wrong turn down a corridor that was on fire , and this wall collapsed on top of her , pinned her down . edward : i thought you said she was okay . nikolas : she is , she 's fine . i managed to -- i managed to get her out just before i got knocked unconscious . she could 've left me there to burn to death , but dragged me down another corridor . and i woke up . i looked at her , and i -- i thought it was emily . monica : can you imagine what it 's got to be like for this rebecca ? i mean , there 's total strangers that are just treating her like she a -- an alien . if i were her , i 'd be unnerved , too . edward : but you see , if we could just explain -- nikolas : well , we can . we can . she should be done with her exam . i 'm going to go downstairs and bring her up , okay ? monica : would you ? that would be wonderful . nikolas : yeah . edward : thank you , nikolas . nikolas : you 're welcome . i 'll be right back . monica : okay . edward : he 's not fooling me . that young man is going to use any excuse , or none at all , to stay near that woman . [ scene_break ] kate : feeling a little bushwhacked , blindsided ? whatever -- do n't worry about it , because i 've thought about this a lot . and i 've come up with a solution . claudia : oh , good . i 'd love to hear it , really -- without admitting i 've done anything , of course . kate : oh , no . no , no , no , no , that 's not going to work . you see , the whole point is for you to own what you 've done without ending up at the bottom of a river . so my plan is that you confess here , in this environment , having just barely survived a poisoning incident . see , that will allow sonny to have some time to think about it . he wo n't be able to act on his first impulse . he wo n't be able to shoot you in a hospital . and you know , sonny is smart . and once he 's had some time to evaluate what he should do next , he 'll realize that killing you really does n't solve anything . and , in fact , his best course of action is to divorce you and put all his efforts to getting you charged and convicted . claudia : you 're some piece of work , you know that ? come on , sitting there all superior . you 're going to dictate what sonny 's going to do and what my punishment should be ? you know what you 're going to sound like ? because there 's this little -- there 's this little hole in your magic plan , and that 's that you do n't have any proof , kate , whatsoever that i did anything wrong . so you 're going to sound bitter and rejected -- [ kate clears throat ] kate : claudia , this is your last chance to save yourself . i suggest you not blow it . sonny : are you going to tell me what 's going on now ? kate : eventually . but for now , it 's just between me and claudia . for now . sonny : olivia , do you know what 's going on between these two ? because they do n't -- she does n't want to tell me , and i do n't know . olivia : i assumed you knew . it 's obviously about you . you ready ? kate : we 'll talk again soon . sonny : sorry . claudia : do n't look at me . i did n't seek kate out . sonny : what is this about ? [ scene_break ] robin : there were a lot of heroes tonight , emma -- doctors and firefighters , people helping other people ... robin : like maxie and johnny helped us . not only did they find us , but they brought emma to the hospital for me so i could help with the evacuation . i do n't know -- maybe that was the wrong decision . i probably should 've been the one to bring my baby to the hospital , but i do n't know . at the time , it just seemed selfish with a hospital full of people that needed to be evacuated . patrick was trapped inside . mac : welcome to the wonders of parenthood . you 're always struggling between your life and your baby , you know , your duty as a cop or a doctor and the needs of your daughter . robin : yeah . i guess it 's no secret i 've been ... struggling with the idea of being someone 's mother . but tonight really put everything in perspective . when my little girl needed me the most , i did what i thought was right . i tried to comfort her , and now she 's okay . [ scene_break ] lulu : my friends are still in there . it is your duty to get them out . firefighter : i ca n't . the fire is spreading to the lower floors . i 've got to pull my men . lulu : you ca n't just leave people in there to die .

[ scene_break ] maxie : it 's not that hard , spinelli . you just -- you sit ellie down , and you explain to her you 're not in love with me , you love her . spinelli : all right , obviously , it 's within my capabilities to form the requisite words maxie : well , then just do it already . honestly , spinelli , you have , like , the most amazing vocabulary , but sometimes it keeps you from communicating . remember that time that you insisted on speaking in iambic pentameter , and it took you like ten minutes to ask me to pass the sugar ? spinelli : yeah . maxie : this is so much more important than that . you need to clearly explain to ellie you 're not in love with me . spinelli : it 's not that simple . maxie : because ... ? [ scoffs ] spinelli ... is ellie right ? are you still in love with me ? spinelli , i - i do n't understand . when i saw you and ellie at christmas , you seemed happy . spinelli : yeah , i -- i thought so . but after you left , ellie was different . you know , she started spending more time at the lab , avoiding me on weekends . i thought she was just tired , maybe , from the hullabaloo of the holidays , but when her reticence persisted , i questioned her , and she -- she admitted that she thought i still had feelings for you . maxie : well , i - i do n't know why . all we ever did when i came to see you was spend time with georgie . it 's not like you whisked me off to some sewer . spinelli : right , but it was -- it was in those family moments that ellie saw something that troubled her . she -- she said it looked like we belong together . we look like a family . maxie : well , i could see how it would look that way . we 're both related to georgie , and even though i think she 's looking more and more like me every day ... [ chuckles ] she still looks and acts a lot like you . spinelli : yeah , i - i think we 're getting a little off track here . just ... so , after ellie made her observation , i - i started to think , you know , what if she 'd seen something that i 'd overlooked ? you know , she 's a gifted scientist . she 's nothing if not perceptive . so , i thought about it . you know , what if -- what if i 'm denying my feelings , sublimating my true desires ? maxie : desires . okay . spinelli : oh , okay -- and i could n't -- and i could n't come to a rational explanation . and -- and i had no idea how to proceed , but -- but ellie did . she -- she said she thought the only solution was for me to -- to take an honest look at my situation , that until i did , i - i could n't move forward . and since we 'd already planned this visit to come see you in port charles , it seemed like the perfect opportunity . maxie : opportunity for what ? spinelli : ellie decided to stay home ... to give me a chance to see how i felt around you and our daughter , to see if maybe the three of us could be a family . [ scene_break ] nathan : [ exhales sharply ] and i know in maxie 's head , because she did n't physically put the cash and the car keys in johnny 's hands and then mapquest him directions to get out of town , that she was n't aiding and abetting . dante : yeah , that sounds like maxie . nathan : [ sighs ] see , and here you were worried that it was gon na be lulu , that johnny was gon na pull lulu into something illegal , but it 's maxie that gets sucked in . dante : and you ... just cover for her . nathan : just do n't worry about that , all right ? it 's not your problem . dante : you are my partner and my friend . that makes this my problem . but putting aside the legal technicalities for the moment ... the big question is , do you guys think you can get past this ? [ scene_break ] michael : now , these are all sonny 's local legitimate financial holdings . he does a lot of business down in the caribbean and south america . rum distilleries , casinos -- those would be harder to get to , but right here in port charles , he owns several warehouses . he controls a block on the waterfront where he runs a coffee business . sabrina : okay , but you just said that those are legitimate businesses . michael : yeah , well , he funnels the proceeds from his criminal activities through it . now , if i can find a way to shut down the coffee business , he has no way to wash his dirty money . sabrina : and you can do that ? michael : oh , yeah . i 'm the ceo of elq . i can ruin him . sabrina : [ exhales sharply ] michael : what , you -- you do n't agree ? sabrina : look , i understand revenge . i completely lost myself , michael , and i do n't want that to happen to you . michael : look , i 'm sorry , sabrina . that must have been hard for you . and i - i appreciate your advice , but our situations are completely different . ava was far from innocent , but she 's not the one who caused the accident that made you lose your baby . aj was unarmed , and sonny shot him at point - blank range . sonny took my father 's life . and i 'm gon na make him pay .

[ door closes ] [ scene_break ] olivia : alexis stormed out . so what ? i 've been known to lose my temper on occasion . it does n't really mean anything . all you got to do is go make up with her . go find her and apologize or something . ned : you see , i 'm not sure i want to do that . olivia : what are you talking about ? ned : after alexis left , this woman shows up -- the guest chef 's mother , if you can believe it . and she basically read me the riot act . olivia : the chef 's mother ? ned : uh - huh . olivia : who the hell does she think she is ? ned : actually , you know who she is . the two of you grew up in bensonhurst . olivia : god . melissa picard ? mm . yes , she said that her son was in town doing some kind of a catering gig . ned : [ breathes deeply ] yes , he was , at my house . so , she came over to see her son , and she found me and gave me a piece of her mind . olivia : what did she even say to you ? ned : we talked about you . olivia : me ? ned : she thinks you and i belong together . olivia : all you got to know about melissa is that she does not know when to keep her big mouth shut and keep her own opinions to herself . i do n't know where she got the idea that you and i should be together , but i 'm telling you one thing -- i did not send her over to your family 's estate . ned : oh , i know . like i explained , she came over to see her son . olivia : and the next time i see her , i 'm gon na give her a piece of my mind . ned : olivia , you do n't need to do that . olivia : what -- what exactly did she say to you ? ned : that i 'm an idiot , that alexis is hung up on julian , and that you and i are perfect for each other . [ scene_break ] maxie : all of that rain in portland must have warped your brain , spinelli . do you remember what happened the last time i told you that i loved you ? you told me that you moved on . spinelli : yeah . maxie : and now what ? you 're -- you 're back here asking me to make a life with you and our daughter ? spinelli : no . [ sighs ] that might have been my original intention , but as soon as i got on the plane , i came to my senses . i - i simply -- i simply planned to enjoy a visit with you and our daughter while attempting to figure out if what ellie was saying was true , but it was never my intention to inflict my sentiments on you . maxie : okay , then why even bring it up ? spinelli : well , because when i arrived , you told me that you and nathan had argued , and -- maxie : [ sighs ] spinelli : and it made me think , you know , what if we do have a chance ? maybe that was a sign that i should say something . [ scene_break ] nathan : i do n't want to change anything about maxie . i appreciate everything about maxie . i love that she 's creative , that she 's impulsive , and that she leaps before she looks . and i 'm sure in the moment , she just thought she was helping an old friend , but , see , that 's the problem here , though -- maxie does n't understand the trouble that she 's caused . and i do n't mean for me . i mean for herself . dante : if there 's one thing i 've learned from marriage , it 's about compromise . one of you is gon na upset the other at some point , no matter what . so , what you have to ask yourself is , if you and maxie are gon na be together , can you find a way to accept it ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i want to be more hands - on this time , you know ? i missed so much with the other kids . this is kind of like my second chance . carly : well , that 's great , and you have the benefit of all you 've learned about being a parent . and what he does n't know , i 'll teach him . i promise . [ laughs ] sonny : i 'm counting on that . i mean , three months in pentonville , thinking i was gon na spend the rest of my life there , i could n't even let myself think about what 's happening right now with that beautiful , little angel here . but you know what ? carly : hmm ? sonny : um ... [ avery coos ] sonny : i 'm free , right ? i 'm gon na dedicate myself to being a better father . [ scene_break ] franco : look , i 've never met sonny . if i ever met him , i 'm pretty sure i would n't like him , but even a sick , screwed - up bastard with a propensity for violence can be a better person if he 's a parent . the thing is , kids -- through their innocence , they see you as strong and good and noble . and even if you are n't any of those things ... kiki : [ sighs ] franco : you try to be for them . you give them your best . you just do . and even if you ca n't do that , you fake it . and if you fake it long enough , you hope that they believe it . this i know -- being a father to a little girl can make you a better man . kiki : [ sighs ] so , you do n't think i should sue for custody of avery . franco : you have to make a decision that provides your little sister with a stable home . kiki : [ sighs ] franco : and you have to make a decision that allows you to sleep at night . but ultimately , you 're the only person that knows what 's right for you . [ scene_break ] alexis : michael . michael : hey , alexis . alexis : hi , sabrina . sabrina : hi . alexis : i 'm looking for ned . michael : um , he 's not here . did we commandeer your table ? alexis : no , that was over before we started . i 'm glad somebody 's able to enjoy it .

[ kiki calls alexis ] alexis : i 'll be in touch . michael : was , uh , was that kiki ? alexis : yes . michael : i could n't help but overhearing . it sounded like you were talking about avery 's custody . alexis : michael , i know that i 'm your attorney , but i 'm really not at liberty to discuss this with you .

[ scene_break ] olivia : what makes her think she 's even remotely qualified to give you advice on who you should or should not be with ? you know , this is the kind of behavior that gives bensonhurst girls a bad name . we 're not all a bunch of big , pushy , loudmouth buttinskies . you know that ? ned : i - i really was n't offended . olivia : [ sighs ] well , you should have been . i was offended . she owes me an apology , and she owes you an even bigger apology , and you 're about to get it right now . ned : no , no , no , i 'm not . [ sighs ] melissa was right . [ scene_break ] maxie : spinelli , you should not be saying this . spinelli : okay , i - i owe it to myself , to -- to ellie , to georgie , and to you to at least talk about it . maxie : [ sighs ] spinelli : look , i like nathan . he 's a good guy . maxie : [ scoffs ] spinelli : and i would never -- i would never try to insert myself if i thought your heart was committed elsewhere , but this -- this -- this argument that you had with him suggests to me that -- i do n't know -- maybe you two are n't ideally suited . you clearly have fundamentally different ideologies , and it 's starting to cause cracks in your relationship . so , despite his dazzling good looks and the fact that he cares for you -- i do n't know , maybe you -- maybe you two are n't the perfect couple . maybe you and i are . maxie : you and me , the perfect couple ? spinelli : well , [ chuckles ] two flawed halves coming together to make a flawless whole ? we certainly created a magnificent baby . maxie : georgie is perfect , but -- spinelli : yeah , and she 's not the only thing that bonds us , right ? and we were friends for so long -- and more . i mean , yes , we 're very different . but we 're very much alike , and we 've seen the best of each other and the worst . and you appreciate me even when you completely disagree with me , and i - i 'd like to think that i do the same thing for you . so ... we have a foundation built of mutual regard and respect . and that 's -- that 's something that we could build on if we move forward . do n't you agree ? i mean , is n't there at least something to what i 'm saying ? [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] spinelli : [ sighs ] maxie : i 'm gon na get that . you 're back ! nathan : yeah . yeah , i am . maxie : uh , what 's going on ? any news on johnny ? nathan : no . johnny 's still at large . maxie : oh . nathan : can i come in ? maxie : yeah . of course . spinelli , hey . spinelli : hey . nathan : glad to see you made it . spinelli : gracious greetings . nathan : where 's georgie ? maxie : oh , sleeping . nathan : [ chuckles ] with ellie ? spinelli : uh , actually , ellie 's not here . nathan : really ? why not ? i thought ellie was coming with you . did i miss something ? spinelli : no , no , that -- that was the plan . nathan : yeah . so , what changed ? spinelli : well , actually , i - i came al -- maxie : she had to work . [ sighs ] that lab of hers just ca n't manage without her . right , spinelli ? spinelli : apparently so , yeah . [ scene_break ] olivia : melissa was right ? right about what ? ned : i did n't want to admit what was staring me in the face . i mean , i had the best of intentions , and i 'm sure alexis did , too . but the simple truth is , alexis is hung up on julian . olivia : [ sighs ] which makes it even more complicated . [ voice breaking ] i 'm pregnant with julian 's baby . [ scene_break ] sonny : i may need your help . carly : with what ? sonny : her room . i just do n't like it . carly : oh , what are you talking about ? that is the sweetest nursery . sonny : well , the lady at the store -- she , you know , put it together at the last minute . i just want something nicer for avery . carly : okay , well , define `` nicer . `` sonny : well , that 's what i need you to tell me -- should -- you know , how should the room be ? like , the ... pink walls -- we should paint them pink or , like , a different crib ? what ? carly : hmm . well , i mean , when it comes to pink for a little girl 's room , i think it 's perfect . i do n't know if you remember , but josslyn 's room was all pink . but it backfired on me , because when she was old enough to have an opinion , all she wanted was yellow and green . sonny : well , when avery 's old enough to have an opinion , she can have what she wants . carly : hey , be careful . do n't want to spoil her . sonny : hell , yes , i do . carly : [ laughs ] sonny : i mean , look , i did n't get to see kristina much , and , i mean , alexis had her own reasons . i 'm not gon na get into that . but i want to be there for avery . so , if she wants pink horses and rainbows , that 's fine . if she wants skateboards and speedboats like josslyn ... carly : yes .

[ scene_break ] sam : i have n't been this happy in since [ chuckles ] well , i - i do n't remember . alexis : aww . i 'm so glad to hear that , and that 's because of jason , right ? sam : i do n't know , mom . it 's because i do n't have to look backward anymore or wonder `` what if ? `` i do n't have to remind myself not to miss him or not to wish for things that can never happen . jason is here , and so am i . and we 've changed -- we have -- but in a lot of ways , we 're still the same . jason can still make a really great bowl of pasta ... alexis : [ chuckles ] sam : ... and we can talk about everything and nothing , and i like it , and i ca n't wait to see what happens next . alexis : i do n't blame you . sam : okay , well , with that said , i was wondering if , um , there 's any way i could bring him to your wedding . [ scene_break ] jason : jake needs specialized treatment , so elizabeth and i are gon na take him to philadelphia shriners hospitals for children . carly : i made a donation after spencer was there in boston . it 's a great organization . there are 22 shriners hospitals for children in the united states , canada , and mexico . they treat children from all over the world , regardless of the family 's ability to pay . monica : and the orthopedic department in philadelphia is excellent . carly : then that 's where jake should be . and , look , you guys , if you need anything or any help , i 'm here . okay , elizabeth ? elizabeth : thank you , carly . okay , i 'm going to finalize the arrangements with the boys , and i 'll meet you later . monica ... thank you so much for all your help with jake . monica : well , he 's my grandson . and i will organize the transport arrangements as quickly as i can , and i 'll keep you posted . jason : thank you . carly : how are you really doing ? jason : hey , you know , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . carly : i meant what i said . you know i did . if you and elizabeth need anything while you 're out of town , do n't hesitate to ask , please . jason : [ chuckles ] you know i have to ask , can -- can you keep an eye on sam for me ? [ scene_break ] sonny : so that 's it ? you 're dumping me ? griffin : you do n't need a neurosurgeon , mr. corinthos . you need a collaborator . you 're using your wheelchair to feign weakness to your enemies . what you do with your life is none of my business , but using me to promote it is . i 'll have no part of it . sonny : fine . i 'll find a new doctor .

[ scene_break ] anna : you still make movies ? dillon : yeah . i mean , that 's the plan . i actually tried to make one here , but that did n't really work out . fortunately , i got this gig with crimson . anna : oh , yeah . how 's that working out ? dillon : it 's going great so far . so i 'm just gon na go with it for now . anna : your parents must be very proud . dillon : yeah .

[ scene_break ] anna : so , you and susan have completely lost touch with each other ? dillon : she used to send me a christmas card every year , but not anymore . anna : oh . does she live abroad like you did growing up , or is she stateside ? dillon : some tiny island off the coast of maine . i do n't know why . she went to some top-10 school in new england , and then she just took off and opened a gift store . called it suki 's . but [ sighs ] i hope she 's happy . i would n't know . anna : sounds like something happened to her . you know , like bad relationship or maybe she got into some kind of trouble she does n't want to be reminded of . dillon : are you interrogating me ? [ scene_break ] paul : when dillon looks at me right now , it feels like he resents me so much he just wants me to disappear . and you , of all people , should know that sometimes you can sense what people are thinking , even if they 're not saying it . like you are right now . tracy , are you all right ? tracy : uh ... where -- where were we ?

[ scene_break ] maxie : you can thank me anytime . elizabeth : thank you ? maxie : you know , matt was just waiting for an excuse to dump me so that he could go running to you , and you were just waiting to be the victim . now matt can be the hero , and you can use him just like you 've used every other guy that you 've ever been with . i gave you both exactly what you wanted . elizabeth : wait a minute . you actually feel like you were the one who was treated unfairly ? maxie : oh , i 'll admit , i stepped in it . i should have known that you were setting me up . matt : okay , this is enough . this is insane . maxie : elizabeth pushed me and pushed me , and she took every chance she could to rub my nose in it . i should have known that she was setting me up to look like the bad guy . elizabeth : i was setting you up ? you told monica i was stealing drugs from the hospital . hello ! you were stealing drugs from the hospital . you told me all about when we were trapped in that miserable warehouse together . oh ! and by the way , not that you care , but she was completely useless . if it was n't for me , we would n't have survived , because i know how to handle myself in dangerous situations . matt : you 're absolutely right . i do n't care , because the only thing you are proving right now is how childish and selfish you are . elizabeth : you know what 's really funny about all of this ? i was never even after matt . [ scene_break ] epiphany : do you ever answer your pages ? patrick : i was in the e.r . with a patient . unless it 's about jason , i do n't want to be interrupted . epiphany : then you only have yourself to blame . patrick : all right . are you gon na fill me in here , or are you just gon na dangle it like a carrot ? epiphany : your daughter and her grandmother were here , waiting for you and dr. scorpio - drake to join them for dinner . patrick : anna brought emma here ? epiphany , why did n't you -- epiphany : page you , yes . patrick : when did they leave ? epiphany : oh , last i heard , they were on their way off to the cafeteria about 15 minutes ago . patrick : which makes sense . emma loves hot dogs . i 'm gon na find robin and try and see if she can take a break . sam : hi , patrick . patrick : hey , sam . um , i do n't have any news on the protocol . sam : okay . um , does jason have to stay here in the meantime ? patrick : yes , he does . sam : why ? he hardly asks for anything . why ca n't he just go home ? patrick : if he has another seizure , he needs to be here , so he can get immediate attention . sam : will he survive another seizure ? patrick : i do n't know . sam : okay . fine . we 'll wait for robin .

[ smooches ] jason : monica ... monica : yes ? jason : do you have any movies of me when i was a -- a baby ? monica : home movies ? oh , i have thousands . jason : how about when i was a newborn ? monica : i do n't have those , because you were still with your biological mother -- with susan . jason : uh , no reason . monica : just so you know , i 'm not giving up on you . [ scene_break ] sonny : you see , what happened is , anthony needed leverage for a business deal he was doing , so he pimped out his teenage daughter . and as a result , it 's johnny zacchara . i know it 's sick , i know it 's sad , and we should pity him ... but that 's why he 's so jealous of dante . that 's why he ruined tonight . johnny : the night ai n't over yet . anthony : john -- johnny : take your hands of me , old man . anthony : i 'm gon na burn your life down , corinthos . i 'm gon na make you glad to die . max : time to walk . carly : proud of yourself , sonny ? sonny : ay . uh , i 'm sorry for the , uh , disruption . i hope it does n't , you know -- that everybody 's willing to make a generous donation and -- i 'm sorry . have a nice evening . are you okay ? kate : do n't touch me .

[ doorknob rattling ] patrick : [ as the big bopper ] hell - o - o - o , baby ! what you doing ? how come you 're not ready ? i told you this morning i was taking you out for valentine 's day -- our first valentine 's day since you came back to me . hmm ? robin : sorry . i 'm just not really in the mood for celebrating . patrick : what do you mean ? what 's wrong ? robin : patrick , i 'm leaving port charles . patrick : what do you mean , you 're leaving port charles ? robin : [ sighs ] i 've decided that i 'm -- i 'm gon na go back to africa and continue to my aids work . patrick : what are you -- i do n't understand . what are you -- what are you talking about right now ? robin : amfar -- they reached out to me , and their board and their medical professionals would like me to join them . patrick : when do they want you to go ? robin : as soon as possible . patrick : uh , well , when are you gon na be back ? robin : i 'm not sure . patrick : robin , i do n't understand . what -- what 's going on here ? what do you mean , you -- robin : it 's an open - ended trip , meaning that it depends on what work that i want to do when i 'm -- patrick : you need to explain to me what 's going on . how did this -- you ca n't just tell me -- you ca n't just announce to me that you 're going to africa and you do n't know when you 're gon na be back . robin : but i am . patrick : that 's not good enough . you ca n't do that . where is this coming from , robin ? dr. obrecht : oh . it 's you . victor : i was hoping for a more enthusiastic response . [ chuckles ] you left wyndemere so quickly after our reunion , i felt compelled to track you down . dr. obrecht : i hardly think that was difficult . you have the entire wsb at your disposal . victor : yes . hmm . well , i wanted to give you this . dr. obrecht : i 'm watching my weight . victor : nonsense . you 're beautiful . and to pay tribute to that beauty , a cassadine heirloom for a woman for the ages . emeralds to match your eyes and white diamonds for your ice . dr. obrecht : and where do i wear this -- the hospital ? it is n't practical . victor : liesl , what can i do to make you happy ? dr. obrecht : you can find out what happened to césar . felix : [ sighs ] brad : oh , uh , i have something for you . felix : [ chuckles softly ] katy , miley , cher , gaga ? these are my favorites ! wait . wait , wait , wait . i thought you loathed this music beyond all comprehension . brad : i - i do . [ laughs ] but you love 'em . felix : wow . i - i - i never , uh ... [ sighs ] i feel awful . brad : oh , please . you did n't have to get me anything . you 're the one having me over for dinner . felix : no , no , no . i mean -- that 's [ sighs ] that 's not the reason why i feel guilty . brad , i have a confession to make . dante : what 's on your mind ? elizabeth : it 's about britt westbourne . lulu : oh . we already know . elizabeth : you do ? lulu : my brother told us today . you know that nikolas is proposing to britt . nikolas : elizabeth ? did something happen with her again ? britt : well , yeah . um , she came over . nikolas : why ? britt : to return ben 's hairbrush . as i suspected , she took it . nikolas : really ? why ? britt : uh , she said it was an accident . nikolas : well , of course it was . mystery solved . now , can we drop the subject of elizabeth , please ? it 's valentine 's day , and the staff has prepared a very special dinner for us . i promise it will be a night you 'll never forget . now go on . go get changed . i 'll be waiting here for you . britt : okay . well ... be right back . nikolas : okay . [ sighs ] hey , ben . hey , ben . see what i got your mom ? as they used to say , i 'm gon na make an honest woman out of her . and i 'm gon na make you my son . carly : okay , franco . listen to me . i 've been sitting here , waiting patiently for you to wake up , so i can thank you for saving my life . but i 'm sick of being nice , okay ? i did n't survive weeks of torture with your mother to lose you , so i need you to wake up now . franco ! open your eyes and wake up ! wake up ! oh . hi . hi . how do you feel ? franco : not so bad . glad to hear it . but you need rest . franco : do not . yes , you do . i 'll be back to check on you shortly . franco : [ moans softly ] carly : hi . franco : hi . carly : do you remember what happened ? franco : got shot again , did n't i ? carly : heather shot you . and you were in really bad shape . franco : found you . i 'm sorry it took so long . are you okay ? carly : i 'm okay now . franco : me , too . victor : faison is back in steinmauer . robert scorpio personally delivered him to his forever home . dr. obrecht : then why wo n't the petty bureaucrats running that gulag let me speak to him ? i go through the proper channels , jump through all their ridiculous hoops , yet they never let him come to the phone . i suspect something is amiss . victor : you know what i do n't understand ? is how an amazing woman like you -- what she sees in this man . dr. obrecht : please , victor . wo n't you help me ? when i said i was watching my weight , it was n't true . i can not eat your beautiful candies because my anxiety has erased my appetite . i have not heard cesar 's voice since i last saw him at wyndemere months ago . victor : you know , given the scope of faison 's crimes and the fact that multiple governments consider him to be a threat , it 's not unexpected that he 's being held incommunicado . dr. obrecht : no . he was dragged away by anna devane and robert scorpio . i trust neither of them . they 're still upset with me for making their precious daughter disappear . victor : yeah , i was thinking about that . if all goes according to plan ... robin is about to disappear again . patrick : robin , what -- what do you mean , you 're -- africa ? robin : [ clears throat ] because i can make a difference in people 's lives , and -- look , i 'm sorry . i realize that this is totally unexpected , and i -- patrick : yeah , you think so ? you -- you just got back . i mean , you were just gone for two years , so ... you would n't do this to me . you certainly would n't do this to emma . robin : trust me -- the last thing that i want is to be away from our daughter . patrick : okay . well , that 's good , because she 's been without you for two years . so , i just do n't believe that you 're gon na go to africa , no matter how many people need help , so you need to tell me what 's really going on here . robin : [ sighs ] okay . i 'll tell you . brad : wow . you , uh -- you sound so serious . well , what do you need to confess to me ? felix : i lied . brad : about what ? felix : the dna test that elizabeth asked to you run -- you gave her the results today . brad : the one detective falconeri needed for some police investigation ? the one i squeaked through today before frau doktor 's ironclad edict against doing any work for cops kicked in ? felix : look , the last thing anyone wanted was for you to get in trouble with obrecht . brad : she does n't know , and there 's no reason she 'd find out . i only flagged it because it was a paternity test , and i could n't find the father 's name in any of the hospital records . felix : right , be -- [ sighs ] because elizabeth made the name up . brad : wh - why would she do that ? felix : the investigation was n't for the cops . it was for me and elizabeth . elizabeth : i 'm so sorry , elizabeth . i know that britt is n't your favorite person . lulu : you know , i did n't like her , either . i certainly did n't trust her after everything that happened with the baby . dante : yeah . i mean , we , uh -- we wish she would have made a different decision , but we understand she was in a no - win as far as maxie and the baby were concerned . lulu : it 's taken a while , but britt has grown on me . she makes nikolas happy , which thrills me to . e he spent so long grieving for emily , just going from one bad choice to another . anyway ... when nikolas came by , asking for my blessing , i gave it to him . elizabeth : you did ? lulu : i honestly think that britt makes him happy . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] lulu : so , if you 're here to recruit us to try to talk him out of proposing , we would have to turn you down . elizabeth : okay . well , that 's not why i 'm here . i actually had no idea nikolas was proposing to britt . dante : uh ... so , what 's going on , then ? tell us . britt : wow . i ca n't believe you arranged all of this . nikolas : as i said , i - i want it to be memorable for you . britt : everything looks wonderful . [ sighs ] nikolas : i hear the first course is the best . you should try it . [ smooches ] britt : what is this ? nikolas : open it and see . britt : ohh . nikolas , it -- it 's gorgeous . nikolas : spencer always said , `` go big or go home . `` britt : [ sighs ] nikolas : britt westbourne ... will you marry me ? franco : you know , i just ..... franco : i 'm sorry my mother 's so crazy . i would totally understand , carly , if you made a decision -- carly : can you stop , please ? franco : she was n't supposed to hurt you . she was n't . carly : i want you to stop and listen to me for a second . i 'm on your side . we are in this together . i am with you always , okay ? i do n't want you to ever doubt that . franco : i did . that first night you were gone , i thought you dumped me . carly : [ sighs ] franco : you know , i just ... prayed you 'd come back . and then when i realized that there was something really wrong , then i really prayed ... that someone would find you , someone would bring you home . carly : oh , my god . oh , my god ! someone did find me ! franco : who found you ? carly : i have to call the police . brad : wh - why did you lie to me about a dna test ? felix : elizabeth and i were afraid that if you knew the truth , you 'd try to tamper with the tests . brad : why did you think i 'd do that ? felix : because of the names of the people involved . [ sighs ] elizabeth suspected that dante is the father of britt 's baby . brad : and , uh , the dna test proves that he is ? felix : it did . britt borrowed dante 's donation to give herself a baby . elizabeth and i did n't want to tell you anything because we were afraid you might be in on it with the `` b. `` were you ? did you know that dante is the father of britt 's baby ? dante : elizabeth , what 's going on ? [ cell phone rings ] elizabeth : guys , i found something out that i think i -- dante : sorry . uh , it 's the station . one second . yeah , falconeri . okay . yeah , sure . yeah . i 'll be right there . all right . uh ... it 's carly . something 's going on with her . i got to go . lulu : is she okay ? dante : no , she 's fine . she just wants to talk to me . apparently , it 's urgent . lulu : okay . elizabeth : of course . go . dante : sorry . uh , i 'll be back as soon as i can . lulu : do n't worry . we 'll reschedule dinner . dante : no . are you kidding me ? i 'm not rescheduling you for anything , okay ? we got a lot to celebrate . lulu : yeah , we do . [ smooches ] elizabeth : [ sighs ] maybe i should go . lulu : no , no . stay . it 's just us . maybe this makes it easier . elizabeth : is it that obvious ? lulu : you seem like you 're having a hard time , and i think i know why . you 're still in love with nikolas , are n't you ? britt : oh , nikolas . i do n't know what to say . nikolas : look , i - i know it 's sudden , okay ? but i feel like we 've already had to weather more emergencies than most couples do their whole lives , you know ? and you just -- you really make me happy . britt : [ crying ] nikolas : i love waking up next to you every day . i - i get -- i get this , like -- this thrill every time i hear you coming home , and when i 'm gone , i ca n't wait to rush back to you . and i - i know that spencer really loves you . and , britt , i - i love ben as if he were my own son . i really do . i want to spend the rest of my life with you . will you be my wife ? britt : [ crying continues ] i ca n't . i 'm sorry . [ sniffles ] dr. obrecht : you 've recruited that irritating twit robin ? she 'll drive you to distraction with her insipid whining about her undying love for her beloved husband and daughter . victor : perhaps , but she is a brilliant scientist . dr. obrecht : hmm . i assume you want her to revive helena and stavros ? victor : well , after you told me about their location , how could i allow them to rest in peace , as it were ? dr. obrecht : has she agreed ? victor : yes , she has . dr. obrecht : unexpected . she 's such a sour little thing . her only joy is being contrary . whatever you ask for , she wants the opposite . victor : well , it 's just a simple matter of the right incentive . besides , i 've offered robin the opportunity to revive jason morgan . dr. obrecht : i see you 've put the information i gave you to good use . victor : i do what i can . but none of this matters unless robin cooperates . i 've got to find a valid reason as to why she 's leaving port charles so soon after she returned . dr. obrecht : she does n't have a job here . she was too good to work at my hospital . maybe she could say she got a better offer somewhere else . victor : well , whatever excuses she makes , she 's got to be convincing . and this must remain a secret . patrick : what is it ? robin : [ sighs ] patrick : why -- robin : i do n't know -- [ sighs ] i do n't know -- i do n't know -- i do n't know if i can tell you . patrick : robin , yes . of course you can tell me . robin : [ sighs ] patrick : you can tell me anything , okay ? we 'll get through this together . robin : [ sighs ] patrick : why do you feel like you have to go to africa ? robin : [ sighs ] patrick : hey . robin : [ sighs ] it 's because of obrecht . patrick : what does obrecht have to do about this ? robin : because -- because -- because obrecht hates me , because she blames me for everything . like , she thinks it 's my fault that faison got arrested . patrick : okay . listen , i 'm not gon na let obrecht do anything to you , okay ? i 'm never gon na let anything bad happen to you ever again . robin : but what about you and emma ? patrick : what about us ? robin : [ scoffs ] well , if faison and obrecht -- they used my parents to get to me , why would n't they use emma to get to me ? patrick : they would have to kill me in order to do that . robin : i know that you would give your life for emma . that 's why i do n't want you to have to do that . that 's why the best thing for me to do to keep both of you safe is to leave . patrick : no , that 's not happening , okay ? do you understand that ? we 'll call your mother . we 'll call the wsb , and we 'll get them involved . robin : wait . no . no . do n't do that . patrick : what do you mean ? robin : the wsb are the ones that gave obrecht immunity , okay ? the largest , most powerful intelligence agency in the world let her go , and my parents did n't even know about it . patrick : that does n't mean that they ca n't do anything about it now ! robin : the wsb -- they -- [ sighs ] they ca n't stop obrecht . whatever information she gave them was so valuable that they let her go , okay ? they 're not going to protect us . patrick : then we 'll protect ourselves , okay ? we 've got family here . we 've got a support system here in port charles . we can take care of ourselves . robin : please just listen to me , okay ? the best thing for me to do is to go very far away from here -- okay ? -- to disappear to africa and come back when it 's safe for me to be here again . patrick : okay . okay . if you 're that worried about it , you 're that scared , then -- then we 'll go to africa . me , you , and emma -- we 'll disappear together . patrick : look , we 'll be safe , the three of us , from whatever threat obrecht poses to us , okay ? the three of us will go to africa , and we 'll be fine there . robin : no , no . that 's not fair . you have a life here . you have a career here . patrick : no , my life is here , robin , with you . that 's where my life is . robin : what about emma ? we ca n't just uproot her and drag her halfway across the world . patrick : yes , we absolutely can . in this circumstance , we can definitely do that . robin : no . i am not gon na take her away from her support system . she has my mother here . she has elizabeth ... patrick : robin , no . she wants to be with us . robin : ... and a lot of people that love her . patrick : me and you , the both of us , together -- that 's what emma wants . robin : look , i know that emma will miss me , okay ? but the two of you -- you had a life together . you did when i was gone . patrick : we made do because we thought that you were gone , okay ? we did n't have a choice . but now you are back , and we are a family , and we will handle this together , as a family , the way we are supposed to do it . robin : [ sighs ] patrick : we will go to africa as a family , and we 'll be -- we 'll be fine there . robin : what about your baby ? what about the child that you 're having with sabrina ? nikolas : did i read this wrong ? britt : [ sniffles ] nikolas : i was sure that you cared about me as much as i do about you . britt : i do . i love you . nikolas , do n't ever doubt that . nikolas : then what 's wrong ? britt : [ sighs ] the reason elizabeth ... took ben 's hairbrush was to take his hair from it to run a dna test . nikolas : [ sighs ] what -- what kind of dna test would elizabeth need ? britt : a paternity test . she wanted to prove ... who ben 's father is , and ... she did . nikolas : and who is ben 's father ? britt : dante . dante : hey . carly : hi . dante : i got a call saying you want to talk to me -- it 's urgent ? carly : yes . yes . and i think you should handle it for lulu 's sake . dante : okay . what 's going on ? how does this affect lulu ? carly : when heather had me locked up at the quartermaine boathouse , luke showed up , and he tried to save me , okay ? but then these two guys showed up out of nowhere . dante : two guys ? carly : yeah . there were two of them . there -- there were two of them , and they knocked luke out and they took him away , and i do n't know if he 's alive and i do n't know what this is gon na do to lulu . elizabeth : nikolas and i are just friends . i obviously care about him . britt is going to destroy him . lulu : nikolas does n't think so . elizabeth : well , i know her pretty well . i 've seen the tricks she 's pulled in the hospital -- the way she demeans sabrina , the way she tried to railroad patrick with that baby . what about what she did to you -- kept maxie 's secret about their baby ? lulu : i know . dante explained . britt was bound by patient confidentiality . elizabeth : no ! that was a stupid excuse . she 's a nightmare . lulu : i had the exact same concerns . i feel like having ben changed britt -- and meeting my brother . maybe she just needed to be loved . look at who her mother is and her father . she needed the stability that nikolas offers , and ... elizabeth : [ sighs ] lulu : ... you know , after they got together , she really went the distance for me and dante . she tried to help us have another baby . elizabeth : well , that is her job . lulu : no , it was more than that . it was like she was as devastated as dante and i were when she discovered that i do n't have any more viable eggs . she wanted us to use a donor so that we could use dante 's sperm for another in vitro fertilization with another gestational mother . actually , that 's our only option . elizabeth : if you do n't mind me asking , why did n't you pursue it ? lulu : this is gon na sound selfish -- 'cause , i do n't know , maybe it is -- but i just was n't comfortable with it . you know , i felt like it would n't be my child . it would be dante 's baby with another woman . nikolas : dante is ben 's father ? well , how -- how did elizabeth even know to check ? i mean , what gave her the idea to even compare their dna ? britt : she noticed that both dante and ben have the same allergy . she was aware that dante had made a donation when he and lulu were trying to have a baby , and she knew that i used a sample from the g.h . lab , so she just put two and two together and had the test run behind everyone 's backs . nikolas : this is -- this is really bad , you know ? dante and lulu wanted a baby more than anything . britt : yeah , i know . and now ... ben is dante 's son . nikolas : britt ... when your mother came up with the plan for you to get pregnant from a sample at the g.h . lab , you did n't know whose sample it was , did you ? tell me you did n't know it was dante 's . felix : this is n't about me minding your business , brad , but ... you 've lied for britt in the past . and if she forced you to be a part of stealing dante 's sample to make herself pregnant , that 's -- that 's illegal . [ sighs ] brad : and ? felix : and -- and you could lose your job . hell , you could even lose your lab- tech license . dante could press criminal charges if you were knowingly helping britt . so , i need you to tell me the truth . brad : [ sighs ] yes . i knew dante was the father . [ sighs ] nikolas : you did n't know that the donor sample came from my sister 's husband , did you ? britt : my -- my mother con -- i mean , she controlled the whole procedure from beginning to end . i do n't know if she knew that the sample was dante 's , but i - i certainly did n't . but the problem is that elizabeth thinks that i knew all about it , and she 's probably telling dante and lulu right now . nikolas : all right . well , just -- look , look . we 'll just go to them , go to dante and lulu , and we 'll explain that you had no idea that dante was ben 's father , okay ? britt : okay . you 're right , but -- nikolas : but what ? britt : but what if they try to take ben away from me ? lulu : i know that it should n't matter , and i know that plenty of parents are thrilled to have a baby that way , but i feel like every time i looked at that child , i would feel inadequate . elizabeth : really ? a - are you sure ? lulu : it 's like the baby would be this constant reminder of what i could n't do . i sound horrible , do n't i ? elizabeth : no , no . god , no . you -- you 're being honest . it 's okay . lulu : britt tried to help us , but i would n't let her . she 's really not that bad . dante was amazing . he understands . he does n't want me to feel like a failure . oh , god . i have just been going on and on about myself . i have n't let you get a word in edgewise . what was it that you wanted to tell me ? elizabeth : it 's nothing . it does n't matter now . britt : i ca n't lose ben . nikolas : you 're not gon na lose him , okay ? you 're not . britt : but when patrick thought that ben was his son , he threatened to sue me for custody . i mean , what if dante and lulu do that ? nikolas : dante and lulu are not gon na take ben away from you . britt : they filed a suit against maxie , claiming that she was an unfit mother . i mean , what if they claim that about me ? nikolas : those were completely different circumstances , okay ? dante and lulu spent maxie 's entire pregnancy thinking that she was carrying their child . you are ben 's mother . you 're not gon na lose him . i promise you , i will not let that happen , and neither will my sister . i know her , all right ? let 's just -- we 'll go to dante and lulu and explain to them that this was n't your fault and it was your mother 's . dr. obrecht : i know robin scorpio extremely well , and for some reason , that automaton jason holds a place in her heart . victor : that 's how it seems . still surprises me , though . robin -- she 's a healer , and he -- what is a kind word for him ? assassin . dr. obrecht : mm . she risked her life for him before . and césar told me she wept vulgar tears when she found out that jason had most likely died . victor : yes . well , i 'm grateful for the leverage . i just hope it 's enough . dr. obrecht : do n't worry , victor . robin will come through for you , and she wo n't divulge this to anyone . victor : well , thank you , liesl . i trust your judgment , and i appreciate your reassurance . dr. obrecht : i 'm happy to help you . so , now , perhaps , you 'll come through for me ? see if robert scorpio actually delivered césar to steinmauer or if there was foul play . victor : [ chuckles ] dr. obrecht : please ? victor : [ laughing ] dr. obrecht : for me ? victor : for you ?

[ scene_break ] jason : carly 's strong . we both know that . but that does n't mean she does n't hurt . maybe seeing you and brenda was too much for her -- sonny : i never stopped loving carly , and i never will . you know that . so what -- jason : yes , i -- i believe you . i 'm not the one who matters here . sonny : okay , you know what ? forget that -- forget that . i do n't think she ran away . not this time , not for this long . come on , she would n't do that to michael .

what is that ? this does n't make sense , so just tell me what is going on . it 's got to be something , robin . i really think that you might have post - traumatic stress because -- robin : what ? no . i do n't have ptsd , okay ? patrick : well , this does n't make sense , okay ? because the last time you went to africa , your medication was n't working . your protocol was n't working . so is that what 's going on ? robin : no , i 'm fine . i 'm healthy . it 's not that . patrick : what is it ? please , just tell me , because ... robin , i 'm your husband . will you look at me , please ? i love you . you have to tell me what is going on , because i can deal with it . what i ca n't -- robin : it 's jason . patrick : what ? i 'm doing this because of jason . elizabeth : well , are you gon na say something ? nikolas : liz ... dante : well , someone better start talking . britt : it 's true , dante . ben is your son . dante : i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't understand . how is that even possible ?

nikolas : liz , could you possibly summon a bit of tact here , please ? elizabeth : i 'm sorry . they 're never gon na get a straight answer out of her . the truth is , britt stole your sperm sample from the lab and used it to father her child . brad : here 's the deal . felix : who 's lucas ? ava : i did n't touch your computer . why would i touch your computer ? julian : you tell me . ava : i do n't even know your password . julian : not what alexis said . ava : davis ? julian : do you know any other ? oh , yeah , yeah . she said she was here . you claimed she could n't use my computer because i was downloading files , which is interesting , because i was n't . so the only person who could 've been downloading files ... was you . sonny : ava was n't lying . julian has been tracking corinthos coffee finances for months . shawn : it makes sense now why he was attacking the imports and the warehouse . sonny : crippling our legitimate business , which makes impossible to funnel through our other non - legitimate finances . shawn : he keeps this up , the money the team brings in wo n't be worth the paper it 's printed on . let 's see what else he 's got going here . what the hell is this ?

ava : i do n't even know what you 're accusing me of . based solely on the word of alexis . julian : i trust her . ava : oh , please , julian . have you forgotten she 's sonny 's attorney ? julian : so ? ava : [ scoffs ] so , on the night of the art show , when the truth of your identity came to light , alexis was squarely on sonny 's side . and why should n't she be ? she shares a kid with him , too , not to mention years of history and the fact that he 's got her on retainer . julian : mm . ava : you add all of that up and it 's clear that alexis is trying to sow seeds of discontent between us . julian : possibly . or maybe you double - crossed me . felix : `` hope you 're having a great v - day . call me . let 's hang out again sometime . `` brad : oh , right ! lucas . sorry . it was just so out of context . yeah , he 's a -- he 's a friend of mine . no big deal . felix : a friend . brad : yeah , he 's -- he 's not even gay . felix : really ?

ava : i would never do a thing like that . julian : oh , i do n't know , ava . you did n't have a problem with pointing a gun at me when you discovered that i 'd threatened morgan 's family . ava : i was upset . that 's a far cry from out - and - out betrayal . julian : well , i hope so . because , sister or no sister ... if y push me against the wall , i will take you out , ava . dante : is that true ? you used my sample to get pregnant with ben ? nikolas : yes , but she did n't know that it was yours . britt : nikolas , i appreciate you having my back , but it 's on me to explain . elizabeth : oh , please . we 're all ears . britt : [ clears throat ] yes . dante : yes , what ? britt : i used your sperm to father my child . lulu : why ? britt : i was in a really bad place last year . elizabeth : ugh ! do n't tell me you 're making excuses . britt : it 's not an excuse . it 's a fact . okay ? i mean , you all were there . you remember how patrick kicked me to the curb , and i was so hurt and so desperate to hold on to him that ... enter my mother . i -- dante : your mother ? what does your mother have to do with any of this ? britt : well , she was the one who came up with the brilliant plan for me to get pregnant in order to hold on to patrick . i still ca n't believe i let her talk me into it , but i did . elizabeth : so this is all dr. obrecht 's fault . britt : she 's right . i was the one who decided to go along with the crazy plan . dante : i 'm sorry . i do n't get this . i still do n't understand . i just -- i just -- i do -- i do n't understand ! britt : by the time that we decided to go through with it , we had to act quickly . lulu : otherwise , patrick would n't believe that the baby was his . britt : exactly . and there could n't be a paper trail , obviously . so we decided the fastest and easiest way to go about it was to use an existing sample from the lab . and we used yours . dante : so this is actually happening . your son , ben ... he 's mine . lulu : dante ... you 're a father . robin : jason is n't dead . i 've seen proof . patrick : you 're not going to africa . robin : no . i 'm not . patrick , i 'm so sorry ... that i lied to you . he said that i could n't tell you . patrick : who ? robin : victor cassadine . apparently , he 's nikolas ' uncle and the new head of the wsb , which nobody knows about , not even my parents . patrick : what does victor have to do with anything ? robin : because he showed up here ... to this house the other day ... and he told me that jason 's body was pulled from the water before he could die . and he offered me the chance to save him . patrick : `` offered you . `` robin : yeah , it 's supposed to be some incentive for me to help him with his family , but bottom line is that i have the chance to bring jason back to his wife and to his son . but that means that i have to leave port charles and it means that ... i have to leave you . patrick : he 's blackmailing you , okay ? this -- how do you know you can trust him ? this could be an old picture . jason could very well be dead . robin : because he showed me evidence that jason is still alive . but you 're right . you 're right . i do n't know if i can trust him . but what else -- i mean , what other choice do i have ? patrick : what ? you have a choice to stay here , where you belong , with us , not run off on some ... adventure five minutes after you got home . robin : an adventure ? patrick : well ... robin : that 's what you 're gon na call this ? my friend , his life is hanging in the balance . i ca n't just ignore that . patrick : did you already tell victor that you would do this ? robin : i did n't at first . patrick : but eventually you -- you said you would ? robin : yes . patrick : right . so you were just gon na leave , right ? you were gon na leave without saying sorry or come up with some fake excuse ? you were just gon na abandon emma ? robin : do n't say that . patrick : that 's exactly what is happening , robin ? can you not understand that ? i can not believe that you 're doing this to us again ! felix : that 's the same guy that was in the exam room with you . you said he was a patient . brad : okay , technically , you assumed that . felix : fine . but you had no problem letting me believe it . brad : [ sighs ] felix : look , i 'm not mad , okay ? we never made any promises to each other . but i think you owe it to yourself to be up front . are you and lucas sleeping together ? brad : we did . felix : you slept with him . brad : it was weeks ago . you and i had that big fight at work , and for a couple days afterward , we were n't even speaking . i went down to the floating rib one night to drown my sorrows , and -- felix : and there he was . brad : we got to talking . weirdly ... it turns out we have a lot in common . before i knew it , one thing led to another , and ... but then the next day , you and i made up . felix : and you did n't say anything because ... ? brad : i thought i 'd never see him again . felix : it was just that one time , when we were on the outs ? brad , it was just one night , right ? brad : not exactly . morgan : this is kind of awkward . lucas : oh , look . i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to put you on the spot . morgan : oh , no , no , no . look , i know julian 's your dad . i just do n't want to lie to you . lucas : no . please , truth . i can handle it . morgan : okay . he 's really bad news , man . he 's , like , really , really bad news . lucas : okay . but ... i mean , people say the same thing about your father . morgan : yeah , yeah , i -- that 's true , but -- but ... julian did something that my dad never would 've done . lucas : what did he do ? morgan : when i wanted to quit julian 's organization ... he threatened to hurt people i care about -- michael , my mom ... lucas : what kind of threat ? lucas : he said that i 'd walk around the rest of my life knowing that someone innocent died because of me . lucas : all because you did n't want to work for him anymore . morgan : yeah . and he was n't just threatening my family . he was threatening yours , too . okay , look , look , i -- i 'm not telling you what to do , 'cause , trust me , i know how annoying that is ... lucas : no , no , i -- i totally get it . i 'm -- i 'm grateful . morgan : it 's completely your decision if you want to let julian into your life . i 'm just letting you know who you 'll dealing with . ava : you would n't kill your own sister . julian : really ? well , we both know i 've done it before . olivia , my dear sister , may she rest in peace , pushed me too far . i advise you to avoid making the same mistake . ava : maybe you 're the one who does n't know who he 's dealing with , huh ? do n't underestimate my willingness to end you , either . julian : oh , feisty tonight , are n't we ? ava : i will do whatever i have to do to survive . sonny may not be able to take you out because of danny , but trust me -- that little brat you call a grandson means nothing to me . sonny : he 's even got danny 's medical records here . shawn : amazing , is n't it ? that kid 's the only thing keeping jerome breathing . sonny : i 'm more interested in finding out what 's keeping him in business . is that what i think it is ? shawn : damn . is ... is that for real ? sonny : get ava over here now . ava : do n't smirk at me like that . i will kill you ... even if little danny is the one who pays the price . [ ringtone sounds ] ava : now , if you 'll excuse me , i have to go before i say ... or do something i 'll regret . julian : let me guess -- kiki again ? ava : good night . sleep tight . dante : why should i believe you ? elizabeth : because it 's true . i ran a dna test . britt : behind everyone 's backs . elizabeth : [ sighs ] britt : but it 's okay because you 're `` saint `` elizabeth . elizabeth : do n't even go there . dante : you ran a dna test ? how ? w - why ? i noticed that you and ben had the exact same allergy , and it set off alarm bells . lulu : why did n't you tell us ? elizabeth : because i know how much you guys have gone through trying to conceive , and what if i was wrong ? dante : so -- so you got suspicious . and then what ? elizabeth : i took some hair from ben 's brush and compared it to a water bottle you 'd been drinking from . they were a match . dante : you 've been keeping this a secret the entire time ? britt : no , i -- i swear . i did n't know . i just found out you were the father today . elizabeth : oh , my god . britt : i had no clue until elizabeth confronted me with the test . dante : and your mother ? what about her ? britt : i do n't know . if i had to guess , i 'm sure she knew the truth . but as far as i was concerned , we used an anonymous sperm donor . elizabeth : you are n't really buying this , are you ? britt : it never crossed my mind that ben could be yours . if it -- if it had ... dante , i knew how badly you wanted to be a father . i could 've never kept something like that from you . nikolas : listen , man ... i know this is all a shock to you , but ... can you say something ? anything ? dante : i , uh ... i want to see my son . patrick : your child has been without you for two years . i -- i do n't even know how you -- how you consider leaving . robin : what about jason 's child ? what about the child that he does n't even know he has ? do you really think that it 's the right thing to do to let danny grow up never knowing his own father ? patrick : i do n't care . robin : what ? patrick : i do n't care . robin : you do n't care ? about a defenseless little baby ? patrick : i care about our baby ... the one that slept with a picture beside her bed every single night because she thought you were watching over her . what were you gon na do ? just ... say you 're sorry ? `` jason 's son is more important than you `` ? robin : that is not fair . patrick : no , robin , you 're right . this -- this is not fair . robin : can you please , just this once , try to understand about jason ? patrick : i think i got it . yeah . i think i have it . jason is untouchable . i 'm -- i 'm never gon na get to -- to jason 's level . robin : just stop it ! patrick : no . i get it . he 's the most important thing in the world to you . i understand that . but you do n't understand jason was a gangster . robin : he was n't to me , okay ? and you 've never understood what jason meant to me . patrick : come on ! robin : do n't -- do n't say `` come on . `` do n't say `` come on . `` if it was n't for him , i would n't even be here , okay ? we would 've never met , never gotten married , we never would have had a little girl . he literally saved my life . patrick : yeah , i thought the meds did that . robin : right . who do you think got me to take them , okay ? when i had 40 pills a day to take with no guarantee of them ever working , ever , who do you think convinced me that my life was even worth living ? ca n't you understand that if i have a chance to save his life -- even a small chance -- i have to take it . patrick : you do n't . look , i 'm grateful for jason . i 'm glad that he was that person for you , but there are limits to what you can do ... to try and pay him back . robin : he needs me right now . patrick : god , i ... robin , we need you . robin : patrick , he 's going to die if i do n't save him , okay ? sabrina needs you here . i mean -- patrick : why would you even bring that up ? robin : why ? because i had to give you weeks -- weeks -- to make your choice . okay ? and ... because this just fell into my lap , and it -- and it 's jason . patrick : and it 's jason , right . 'cause he 's more important than our family . right ? patrick : oh , come on . robin : doing something that is right , even when it is so difficult -- patrick : robin , do n't do that . do n't -- do n't turn it around like that . robin : that is what i 'm doing . patrick : no , you 're not doing this for emma . that 's a cop out . you 're putting jason before our family . but you know what ? i should n't be surprised because it 's not the first time that you 've done that . morgan : what are you gon na do ? lucas : i do n't know . i guess i have a lot to think about . lucas : uh , anyway , for what it 's worth , man , i 'm really sorry about you and ava . morgan : oh . lucas : i guess you 're probably having a pretty crappy valentine 's day . morgan : yeah . uh ... so -- so w - what about you ? are you seeing anyone right now ? lucas : uh ... morgan : oh , come on . get out of here . mom was saying that you 're , like , some kind of don juan or something like that ? lucas : what ? no ! morgan : yeah . lucas : well , okay . i guess there is this one dude . morgan : see ? there it is . lucas : well , there 's this one guy ... [ both laugh ] lucas : yeah , but he 's -- he 's made it pretty clear he 's into someone else . felix : so are you still seeing this guy ? brad : no . i mean ... he came out to his biological father . it did n't go well . he needed someone to talk to . felix : does he always take off all his clothes when he needs to talk ? brad : there was n't supposed to be a second time . in fact , i told him we could n't anymore because i wanted to make it work with you . felix : that 's what i wanted . that 's why i said we should take it slow , and you agreed . guess now i know why . brad : felix ... i - i 'm sorry . felix : for what ? i 'm -- i 'm the one who made assumptions , not you . i guess i thought since we were exchanging gifts and spending valentine 's day together that there was no one else in the picture . [ chuckles ] i even had a romantic notion about you staying the night . brad : and now ? felix : now i think you should just go . dante : where 's ben ? is he at wyndemere ? is he at lesley 's ? nikolas : it 's late , dante . maybe now 's not the best time . dante : you 're not gon na stop me from seeing my son . nikolas : no one 's trying to stop you . just if you -- if you wake him up now , trust me -- you 'll regret it . it 's probably best to wait till tomorrow . britt : nikolas is right . i 'll be in touch with you in the morning , okay ? dante : all right . i 'll , uh ... i 'll await your call . nikolas : we should go . britt : i 'm really sorry . i never meant for you to get hurt , either of you . [ door closes ] elizabeth : are you guys okay ? dante : [ scoffs ] lulu : why ? something just happen ? elizabeth : lulu ... lulu : so this is what you came here to tell us , right ? elizabeth : yes . dante : but you were gon na leave without saying anything . elizabeth : i wanted to protect lulu . she just finished telling me how you guys opted out of having an egg donor because you really wanted to have a child together . i thought that there might be a better time for you to find out ... that you have a child with someone else . britt : nikolas , i am so sorry . you had this amazing , beautiful valentine surprise planned , and -- and , per usual , i found a way to ruin it . nikolas : no , it 's ... britt : how relieved are you that we did n't get engaged ? nikolas : why would you say that ? britt : is that an actual question ? nikolas : britt , you told me you did n't know who ben 's father was , and i believe you . but more than that ... i love you . i love you , and ... i still want to marry you ... if you want to marry me . so what do you say ? robin : i 've never chosen jason over our family . patrick : two years ago ... today . can you still hear the alarms ? because i can . robin : what ? patrick -- patrick : lab was about to explode , jason needed his protocol . i asked you -- i begged you not go in there , but you went anyways . robin : to -- to save my friend . patrick : you were willing to -- to die for him . you were willing to -- to lose me and emma forever to save jason . robin : then jason would be dead . patrick : exactly my point , robin . he 's more important . robin : no . patrick : the last time that you did this , you were gone ... for two years . so what is it this time ? is it a week , is it a month , a year , 10 years ? robin : all i know is that i -- i spent two years as a prisoner ... hoping and praying that someone would come to find me , knowing that nobody would . patrick : do you ... we could n't come and search for you because we thought you were gone . i mean , we thought you were dead . robin : and so everyone thinks jason is dead . he 's in the same place that i was , except it 's worse . he 's -- he 's immobilized . he 's not living . he 's not dead . i mean , i ca n't just leave him like that . patrick : yes , you can . robin : even if i did and i stayed here , i could n't have a life . i would just be going through the motions . patrick : no , you would n't . you 'd be here with ... you 'd be sleeping in our bed . you 'd be sitting on the couch . you 'd be loving me and emma . robin : but i do love you and i love emma more than anything in the world ! this would n't change that . patrick : yes , it would , robin . it would change everything because you would be gone . robin : i need to save jason , okay ? for sam , for his son ... and , yes , even for me . jason has just as much of a right to his life as you do yours . patrick : no . no , see -- see , i do n't see it that way because jason risked his life every single day . if it was n't the tumor , it would 've been a bullet . it was a bullet . robin : but he survived . patrick : yeah . what about the next time ? how many times do you leave to go save jason ? robin : i do n't know . i do n't know . i just know that he would do it for me . patrick : really ? you think so ? you think he 'd leave his wife and his son ? robin : if it meant saving my life , yes . patrick , listen to me -- this is -- this is not about abandoning you . patrick : oh , come on . i do n't know how you even say that . robin : because this is about -- this is about saving someone that i truly care about ... someone that has never , ever let me down . patrick : and i have . is that what this is about ? is this payback ? robin : god , no . i love you . i love our daughter . you have to believe that . patrick : then stay . say no to victor cassadine . say no to jason . and stay . robin : wait . patrick , do n't ! elizabeth : i 'm gon na leave you guys alone . i know you have a lot to talk about . dante : is elizabeth right ? are you ... are you upset about this ? britt : nikolas , you ca n't be serious . i mean , you just found out that i have a kid with your brother - in - law . and you want to propose ? tonight ? nikolas : it kind of looks that way . so , what i hope is for the last time ... [ laughs ] ... will you marry me ? britt : [ sighs ] yes . yes , i 'll marry you . [ chuckles , sniffs ] nikolas : okay . just for now , i 'm gon na put it on your right hand , till your wrist heals , okay ? britt : okay . nikolas : okay . i really love you . britt : i love you more . lulu : how could i be upset ? dante , this is what you 've always wanted . dante : yeah , but it 's what ... it 's also what we 've always wanted . lulu : yeah , and your son ... he 's gon na be a part of both of our lives . dante : [ breathes deeply ] lulu : are you okay ? dante : yeah . it 's just ... hearing you say that -- hearing you say that , `` my son `` ... [ both laugh ] dante : i got a son . lulu : yeah . brad : i 'm really sorry . felix : no , no , enough with the sorrys . i do n't blame you for being with someone else . we 're both adults , right ? i just -- it 's just not the way i envisioned the night going at all . brad : this is not how i envisioned it , either . felix : hey , better we know now , right ? you know , that we 're looking for different things . maybe you and lucas are more on the same page . brad : felix , come on . felix : i 'll see you at the hospital . ava : i assume this summons is about the information i gave you . i told you it 's authentic . sonny : so far . i got a question , though , about the jump drive . ava : ask away . sonny : who do you answer to ? ava : no one . despite what julian thinks , he and i are -- were equal partners . sonny : that 's not what i meant . 'cause according to your records , your brother 's media company ... has a money man . ava : no . julian -- he built that company himself . the only help he got was my art gallery , to launder funds . sonny : take a look yourself . ava : i ... i did n't know anything about that . sonny : looks like your brother 's been keeping secrets from you . you two did n't rebuild the jerome empire by yourselves . somebody else has been bankrolling your organization for years . [ beeps ] julian : well , well , well ... speak of the devil . [ next_on ] sonny : britt 's little boy ? dante : he 's my son . lulu : ( to tracy ) dante found out that he has a son ... with another woman . elizabeth : ( to robin ) i want nikolas . i 'm still in love with him . patrick : ( to lucy ) she 's not going to be here for the nurse 's ball . franco : ( to kevin ) last time i saw my father , he was on his way to miscavige . anna : ( to heather ) tell me what you 've done with luke . | nikolas and britt go to dante and lulu 's loft . elizabeth tries to stop nikolas from talking , but he spills that dante is ben 's father . elizabeth ca n't wait to fill in the detail that britt stole dante 's sperm sample from the lab . britt reveals that saint elizabeth ran an illegal dna test . lulu ca n't believe elizabeth did that without telling them . elizabeth claims that she did n't want to get their hopes up and be wrong . britt says her mother obtained the sample and swears that she did n't know who the father was until today when elizabeth confronted her . lulu wonders why elizabeth did n't tell them the minute she found out . elizabeth says it was when lulu told her that she did n't want to use an egg donor , because she thought she would regard the child as dante 's child with another woman , so she did n't think it was the right time to mention it . dante asks lulu how she feels knowing that he does have a child with another woman . she says she is not upset that he has a son and that he will be a part of both of their lives . she asks him how he is taking it . he is overwhelmed to know that he has a son . britt tells nikolas that she ruined his valentine 's day plans and that he must be relieved that they did n't get engaged . he says he has n't changed his mind and offers her the ring again . elizabeth watches unseen as nikolas goes down on one knee to ask britt to marry him , and britt accepting his proposal . |

[ door closes ] [ elevator bell dings ] sam : hey . patrick : hi . sam : hi . patrick : how are you ? sam : anxious . any word on jake ? patrick : he , uh , he 's got a tough decision to make . jake : pretty simple choice . elizabeth : is it ? jake : yeah . look , on one hand , i could do nothing . chip stays in . i 'm still at the mercy of helena . i 'd be alive , but , uh , that 's not living , not really -- knowing somebody can control you with a word , use me to hurt people . no . i could have the surgery . maybe it kills me , maybe it does n't . but , uh , either way , like i said , simple choice . live free or die .

[ scene_break ] ned : you must be relieved that , uh , well , you 're not having ... uh ... olivia : [ sighs ] ned : ... that is to say you 're not -- olivia : spit it out , ned . ned : well , that the baby 's not julian 's , that it 's someone else 's . olivia : no , it 's not i 'm having someone else 's baby . i 'm saying that -- that there is no baby . i 'm not pregnant . ned : you 're not ? olivia : no , it was a false alarm . ned : wow . well , no baby is better than a julian baby , right ? olivia : just out of curiosity , uh , whose baby did you think that i might be having if it was n't julian 's ? ned : um , johnny 's ? sonny 's ? olivia : ned , i would sooner jump into bed with julian jerome again . ned : well , did n't you once date that guy , coleman ... ? olivia : t - ta -- d -- okay , enough , enough . just -- just -- i had no idea that your list of my possible baby daddies would be quite so , uh , e - extensive . ned : sorry . i misunderstood . olivia : yeah . ned : so the initial tests were wrong ? olivia : yeah , i was reminded t - t - that frequently home - pregnancy tests do -- do give you a false positive , so i went back , i took another one , and -- and turns out , i 'm not pregnant , so that 's a -- that 's a big relief , right ? ned : but you told me that you had a blood test at the hospital . olivia : i said that ? ned : you did . olivia : oh . ned : you really are pregnant , are n't you ? olivia : [ voice breaking ] yeah , i really am . [ sighs ] ned : so , why did you lie that you 're not ? [ scene_break ] helena : so , when the clinic was destroyed , i relocated to amsterdam . i knew that jerry jacks kept a safe house there . tracy : you were in amsterdam when we went to see jerry jacks ? helena : [ chuckles ] you 're missing the point , as usual . no , jerry had another guest -- luke spencer . well , i was rather put off , because last we 'd met , luke shot me ... and left me for dead . tracy : well , that sounds perfectly reasonable to me . and yet here you are , not dead , again . what did luke do this time ? helena : well , he made an ... unexpected but extremely welcome overture . nikolas : what kind ? helena : `` i think it 's high time that we lay down our weapons and join forces , no ? `` `` well , to what end ? `` i asked . and then luke ... he started to explain -- he was going to break sonny corinthos , he was gon na take control of port charles , and he was going to destroy anyone who got in his way . [ scene_break ] luke : barbara jean . bobbie : [ gasps ] you remember my name . luke : well , yeah . you 're my sister , are n't you ? bobbie : and you might as well be a stranger , given the things you 've done . luke : oh , god , here we go . you may as well give it a rest , bobbie . there 's nothing you can say that the whole herd of sheep have n't already said , who came through here bleating at me . bobbie : well , none of them grew up with you . none of them share our history . you and i fought our way up from nothing together , brother and sister , a team . [ voice breaking ] so start talking , and make it good , or i swear no amount of bars is gon na keep me from tearing you apart ! luke : look , sweetheart , you might as well calm down , because you are not gon na get an apology . bobbie : then then tell me why ! give me an explanation ! how could you put a bomb on a boat full of people that i love ? luke : yeah , well , you know what ? that bomb did n't go off , did it ? your grandson and sonny corinthos played relay heroics . there was an explosion , a big splash of water , and no one was injured . worse , that slimy bastard turned five seconds of stupidity into a full pardon . bobbie : i do n't give a damn about sonny corinthos . luke : neither do i . bobbie : i want to know about you , my brother ! what was going on inside of your head -- if not on the haunted star , then last spring , when you ordered my son 's murder ? [ scene_break ] jake : at least now i have answers , right ? [ chuckles ] i still do n't know who i am or what my life was before , but i did find out that i can , uh , well , i can take a hostage . i can hit a target . i can , uh , plant a bomb . elizabeth : oh , my god . jake : not really a happy or reassuring skill set , but , uh ... i also found out that i did all those things because helena ordered me to . elizabeth : yeah , but do n't you feel better knowing that you 're innocent ? jake : [ sighs ] you know , i can blame helena for all those things up to this point , but if i choose to leave that device in my head , then the next bomb i 'm ordered to set , or person i 'm ordered to kill , that 's on me . elizabeth : why are you acting like this is your fault ? you did n't ask to have that thing put in your head . jake : it does n't really matter . you see , i ca n't trust myself as long as this is in my body . i ca n't look you in the eye and tell you that i know for a fact that i 'm not gon na hurt you or your kids . there was a moment when i heard that bomb go off , and i thought i 'd killed everybody on that boat , and i do n't want to go through that again . i 'm not gon na go through that again . i 'd rather die . so that is a huge plus in the surgery column . [ chuckles ] elizabeth : there 's also a big minus . if you do n't survive the surgery , you 'd be taken away from people who care about you . jake : yeah . there 's so many . elizabeth : at least one . [ scene_break ] patrick : the way the chip is positioned , removing it could leave jake incapacitated , a shell . or he could die . sam : wait a minute , those were the options you gave jason in his first surgery . patrick : yeah , i remember . sam : it was almost 10 years ago that he was diagnosed . i remember he did n't want to go through with it . we moved to hawaii . i mean , jason was n't afraid to die , but ... [ sighing ] gosh , i begged him to live , and then he finally said he would do the surgery . you did it , patrick . you saved his life . patrick : there are some parallels between the two . but , then again , no two surgeries are alike . and in the end , jason and jake -- completely different people . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i feel so powerless . i wish there was something i could do , something i could do to help . jake : you believed me when i said i did n't willingly commit those crimes . you somehow got helena to admit the truth . that 's more than help . that 's a lifeline . elizabeth : [ sighs ] jake : and you 're willing to be left alone in a room with a violent , dangerous , mentally - unstable character . elizabeth : oh , please , stop . jake : no , i 'm serious . i - i - i do appreciate you being here with me . it means more than i can tell you . elizabeth : well , we just ... started this friendship . i do n't really want it to end . jake : you counting me out ? elizabeth : no ! no , never . if anyone can fight helena , i know it 's you . jake : hm . yeah , well ... elizabeth : although you should n't have to . this is very unfair . it 's unfair that she did this to you . she should just undo it . i wish there was a way she could just , like , neutralize that chip in your head . jake : the only person who would know would be helena . elizabeth : i could go to nikolas . he can force her to cooperate . jake : yeah , that would be the way to go , if we could trust helena . [ scene_break ] tracy : just get to the point . we want to know what caused luke to end up in a cell , spouting power - hungry nonsense . helena : well , luke and i formulated a plan to reinsert him into port charles . nikolas : [ chuckles ] but by making a fall guy out of faison ? helena : yes . and once faison was in place , i went to miscavige to ensure that luke was rescued . but when i arrived , i ... i found him -- i found him changed . lulu : changed how ? helena : well , he treated me like an enemy . he had no memory of our collaboration . luckily , the change was fleeting , and after a threatening word from me , he -- he once again became my comrade . lulu : you 're talking about my father like he 's two different people . [ scene_break ] luke : i did not order lucas to be murdered . bobbie : you did n't order a hit man to infiltrate julian jerome 's dinner party and put a bullet in my son ? luke : no . i ordered a hit , but i did n't specify which one of julian 's family it should be . i mean , i just had to put the message out to julian that he could n't just waltz away from the fold without consequences . it could have been sam . it could have been alexis . i did n't -- bobbie : it was your nephew , my son ! luke : he 's not flesh and blood . bobbie : lucas is as much a part of me as you are . i raised him . i named him after you . luke : [ laughing ] i did n't ask for that honor ! bobbie : no , no , no , no , no . this does n't make any sense . i saw you after lucas was shot . you came to his hospital room . you held his hand . you sat with me and waited for him to wake up . luke : oh , for god 's sake , bobbie , follow the bouncing ball ! i was n't there holding vigil over lucas ' hospital bed . i was there to finish the job . and i would have , if julian had n't stopped me and spoiled the fun . [ scene_break ] julian : that 's classic alexis -- you want me , you do n't want me , you sidle up to me , then you pull away . alexis : julian -- julian : you know , i 've had it with your merry - go - round , so just let me off , okay ? alexis : fine , but before you disembark , you should know that the reason i did n't cut ned loose was because i was so busy cutting you loose from police custody . [ scene_break ] olivia : i 'm so sorry , ned . you 've been such a good friend to me , and you really -- you deserve better than my half - baked lies . i 'm sorry . ned : it 's okay . it 's okay . i just wish you ... did n't feel like you had to lie . olivia : [ sighs ] ned : have i done something to make you feel like you ca n't trust me ? olivia : oh , no , no . i trust you . ned , god , i would -- i would trust you with nonna falconeri 's meatball recipe . my god , those things were so good . it 's like she knew just the right amount of pecorino . like , they would melt in your mouth . ned : olivia . you could just -- olivia . olivia . i 'm happy to talk about your grandmother 's meatballs , but i have a feeling you 'd rather talk about babies . so , why did you want me to think that you were n't pregnant ? olivia : because , ned , you 're the only one that knows . and if i had my druthers , nobody would . ned : now , or ever ? because you 're not gon na be able to hide this pregnancy much longer . olivia : [ sighs ] ned : unless ... you 're not going to have the baby . are you going to terminate the pregnancy ? olivia : so , what are you saying ? i should get rid of this baby , huh ? is that what -- is that what you mean ? ned : no , no , no , no , no . i am not suggesting any course of action . i was just stating that obviously it 's an option , right ? olivia : well , not for sister mary eunice 's star pupil , it 's not . i - i mean -- i mean , of course , technically -- technically , that is always an option , and thank god it is an option in america . it is my body . it is my choice . but honestly , ned , for me , i - it -- it really is n't an option . it was n't when i was pregnant with dante , and ... and it is n't now , so ... ned : so , why do n't you want anyone to know you 're pregnant ? you 've obviously been down this road once before . olivia : so -- so , what , i - i should have no shame ? right , is that what -- that what you 're saying ? ned : no , no , no , that 's not what i -- i did n't mean it like -- olivia : ned , ned , i 'm not -- i 'm not embarrassed ! okay , i do n't give a damn if the whole wide world knows i 'm pregnant , okay ? except for the father . god forbid julian knows that i 'm carrying his child . [ scene_break ] julian : so , what exactly did you , um , say to baldwin ? alexis : i told him that you would give your full cooperation to any prosecution of luke . julian : not exactly my preferred method , but yeah , okay . go ahead . alexis : and then i told him that pursuing your case would be another black mark against his tenure as da , and that the charge that you killed zacchara is groundless , because you took the rap to protect yourself and your family against luke , the real luke , who was n't even a prisoner at miscavige in the first place . julian : well , yeah , i fell for luke 's charade , just like everyone else in town . alexis : and then i told him that the taxpayers ' money would be best spent in providing an airtight case against luke , rather than pursuing a loser case like yours . julian : well , i 'm convinced . what did baldwin say ? alexis : he said a lot of things that i ca n't repeat , except you 're free to go . julian : i 'm free ? alexis : congratulations , jackass . and you 're welcome . julian : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] jake : even if [ chuckles ] i could trust helena to neutralize this device , which i certainly do not , there 's no way i 'm gon na leave it in my head . i ca n't handle knowing that any minute , she can just take control of me again . since i woke up , my life has not been my own , a - and i do n't want to live like that anymore . i 'm not going to . elizabeth : ca n't talk you out of this ? jake : no , you can not . let 's go find dr. drake . [ clears throat ] elizabeth : okay . patrick : i know elizabeth is worried about the odds . and believe me , i want to reassure her , but the placement of the device -- it 's tricky . and then the last 12 months -- if it 's proven anything , it 's that i 'm not infallible . jake : hey , sam , dr. drake , you have a minute ? sam : i - i think i 'm gon na go . jake : please stay . you deserve to hear this . patrick : i take it you 've made a decision ? jake : yes , i have . i ca n't risk hurting anyone else . i want the surgery . so let 's go . cut me open and get this out of my head . [ scene_break ] helena : i would speculate that whatever afflicts luke would n't fit neatly into a box . tracy : were there any other incidents where luke appeared to ... come back to himself ? helena : well , i followed him one day , back to that old house of his , and i heard an argument coming out of the basement -- but only one voice -- luke 's . and he was raving , but i later learned he was raving at bill eckert 's corpse . nikolas : he was arguing with a dead body ? ! tracy : did he acknowledge it ? helena : he threatened to void our partnership if i pursued the matter . lulu : and you caved ? helena : well , i was having so much fun with him . i did n't want to risk losing him , so i let it go . we never spoke of it again . tracy : you have told us nothing . helena : i have given you the pieces of the puzzle . now put it together . luke is deranged . now , it 's very clear that the source of his problem is somewhere in the ruins of that family home , his childhood home . but something ... traumatic happened there , and it gave rise to luke 's -- to luke 's dark half . [ scene_break ] bobbie : how could you be so inhumane ? luke : it 's easy when you do n't give a damn . bobbie : you do n't care about me , either ? we 've always had each other 's backs . when times were tough , i always knew everything would be okay because my big brother would save the day . even when we were kids , you always protected me , no matter what happened , no matter who came after me . do n't you remember that ? we were spencers , and we did n't have a whole lot , but by god , we had each other . and all those times i was really afraid . but with every lie i told and every mess i made , i always knew that i had you to turn to . and i stood by you , too , luke . when our hearts were broken , and we did n't have a dollar between us , we were scared and screwed up , but we were never alone . at least , that 's what i thought . [ voice breaking ] i thought my big brother would always be there and that when things got really bad , all i had to do was reach out my hand , and you 'd be there to take it and rescue me . where are you , luke ? ! when did you stop being my brother ? luke : bobbie . bobbie , what 's go -- what 's going on ? what -- w - w -- what 's happened ? what 's happening ? bobbie , what 's happening ? [ scene_break ] olivia : i ca n't let julian in on this thing . it 's not just because he 's a sleazy mobster . the guy does a piss - poor job of protecting his family . ned : but how do you really feel ? olivia : no . lucas got shot . alexis ' house got firebombed . alexis , molly , and baby danny were supposed to be in the house at that time . you just think about that . danny came within moments of dying because he was julian 's grandson . there is no way that i 'm putting my kid through that . ned : but how are you going to keep julian from finding out ? olivia : [ sighs ] there 's only one thing to do . it 's time to relocate . i got to leave town . [ scene_break ] julian : i could kiss you . alexis : ah , but for that , you would need your guard to come and take that handcuff off . julian : that 's a good point . get him in here so we can do this . alexis : for that , you would need me to want to kiss you , which i did before you went off on me for devoting my valuable time to liberating you and not dumping ned . i 'm not so interested in kissing you now . [ sighs ] i wanted to kiss you , and now i do n't . classic alexis , right ? julian : mm . [ scene_break ] helena : i like this version of luke . oh , we had a marvelous time working together . tracy : that 's it . let 's go . i need some air . nikolas : if i learn anything else , lulu , i 'll call you . lulu : thank you . helena : oh , please have the staff bring a late breakfast . confessions are tedious , but they do whet my appetite . maybe a little crème fraîche on top of a caviar omelet . nikolas : not so fast . let 's get back to the discussion we were having before my sister arrived . [ scene_break ] patrick : you do understand there 's no guarantee you 'll come out of this surgery unscathed . you could end up incapacitated , or you could die . jake : do i get a choice ? because if i become a vegetable , i want you to turn off the machines . elizabeth : jake . jake : no , i 'm serious . either i wake up from this free and clear , in my own control , or otherwise , i do n't wake up at all . patrick : [ sighs ] the two most common outcomes are gon na be full recovery or you could die . jake : okay . that 's fine . those are both acceptable . just ... i do n't want to hurt anybody else . although [ chuckles ] there 's , uh , the matter of dr. o . patrick : what about her ? jake : well , i still do n't have insurance , and doubt she 's gon na give me a freebie . elizabeth : oh , do n't even worry about dr. obrecht . patrick : we 'll take care of that . sam : yeah . the important thing is to get helena cassadine out of your head . elizabeth : and that you come out of this in one piece . patrick is gon na make sure of that . patrick : but i 'm not perfect , jake . i think it needs to be said -- the last major brain surgery that i performed , i left the patient beyond repair , and he ultimately died . sam : yeah , but rafe would have died without the surgery . we know that . patrick : i just do n't think you should make that decision without factoring that in . jake : elizabeth says you 're the best . elizabeth : he is . jake : i 'm sorry about your patient , doctor , but , uh , my decision stands . i want this surgery as soon as you can make it happen . [ scene_break ] nikolas : when lulu arrived , you were about to tell me who jake doe really is . let 's finish that conversation . helena : as you wish . i think what i can offer you on the subject of my soldier boy might be far more satisfying to you than what i could tell you about luke . [ scene_break ] luke : what happened ? where -- where am i ? bobbie : what are you doing ? luke : no , w - what 's g -- what 's going on ? where are we ? bobbie : what does it look like , luke ? you are in your jail cell in the pcpd . luke : jail cell , what ? but why am i here ? bobbie : you know damn well why you 're here . luke : what did i do ? bobbie : i am so sick and tired of these games ! i am not gon na stay here and listen to this , not for one more minute ! luke : no , barbara , please ! i did n't do -- bobbie : stop it , luke ! stop it right now , okay ? i 've had it . we are done ! luke : no ! whoever -- whoever did this , it was n't me ! it was a guy who stole my face ! do n't you see that ? bobbie : i see plenty . the blinders are finally off . all these years of defending you -- well , i finally recognize my so - called brother for who you really are . luke : no . no . bobbie : and you are nothing to me ! no , barb -- barbara , do n't say that ! guard ! bar -- barbara , where -- what am i doing in here ? ! barbara , what 's happened ? ! what 's happening ? ! barbara , come back !

[ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] bobbie : helena said there are two lukes ? well , we 've already established that faison posing as luke was just a decoy . he was n't julian 's boss . lulu : not two separate lukes . tracy : two sides of luke in the same body . bobbie : i have known my brother my whole life , and i have never seen this side of him that you are talking about . when would this have happened , and why ? tracy : helena thinks that it occurred when luke was a boy , that something happened in that house on elm street , something terrible . lulu : do you have any idea what that could be ? bobbie : a lot of terrible things happened in that house . tracy : something bad enough to cause this split ? bobbie : i do n't know . i mean , i was just as kid . a lot of those years are just a blur . but , you know , if something happened in that house to make luke the way he is , i do n't know what it is . but i do know someone who might .

alexis : i 'm so glad we 're doing this . julian : mm . what ? skipping the expected wedding rituals ? alexis : mm - hmm . yeah . julian : mm . yeah , i kind of like that we 're doing our own . kind of feels like a pre - honeymoon honeymoon . besides that , it 's my last night to enjoy , um , alexis davis , single woman . mm . alexis : mm - hmm . julian : mm . [ knock on door ] alexis : why does this keep happening to us ? i - i told the girls we wanted to be alone tonight . julian : well , do n't look at me , because i gave the same instructions to lucas and ava .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : hello . sam : come in . nikolas : thanks for agreeing to meet with me . you must have a lot on your plate with your parents getting married tomorrow . sam : we are not here to talk about my parents ' wedding . we 're here to talk about your wedding to hayden . so , why exactly do you want me to investigate your new wife ? [ scene_break ] diane : [ whistles ] wow . that 's very nice . of course , i would expect nothing less from a prince . now , down to business . i was actually a little surprised to get your call retaining my services , considering that i still represent jason morgan , with whom you have , shall we say , a conflicted past . hayden : yeah , well , before we get into all that , were you able to prepare everything we discussed ? oh , yeah . yeah . seems like it 's going to be perfect . [ scene_break ] morgan : i was n't planning on having sex in the warehouse . it just kind of happened . i did n't know it was a big deal . obviously , it 's a big deal . so , you know what ? it 's not gon na -- it 's not gon na happen again . sonny : no , it 's not . you know why ? because you 're fired . morgan : you 're firing me ? sonny : yeah . i do n't have a choice , morgan . morgan : what are you talking about ? it 's your company ! what are you talking about , you do n't have a choice ? you do n't have to fire me . carly : what the hell is going on here ? morgan : dad 's firing me right now . sonny : you gon na tell her why , or should i ? [ scene_break ] paul : you can definitely accuse me of being a bad husband , a worse father , but i am not a killer . anna : really ? why do n't you tell that to kyle sloane ? oh , wait , you ca n't , because you already killed him , and you passed his body off as carlos rivera . that body that was pulled from the harbor , the one that you were so quick to have cremated , that was n't rivera , because for one thing , it had n't been in the water long enough , and that man , he was killed right around the time that sloane disappeared , which is what led me to believe that you killed sloane , and you had his body passed off as carlos rivera . paul : you 're right . i killed sloane . given the chance , i 'd do it again . [ scene_break ] julian : premonition ? this could n't wait till tomorrow ? olivia : you know me . i take my premonitions very seriously . alexis : mm . have n't had one in a while , huh ? yeah , olivia has premonitions . were you even in town the last time she had one ? julian : uh , could n't say , but i 've certainly heard about them . olivia : well , it 's true , alexis . i have n't had one for a while . that 's why i figured this one must be important , so i figured i better rush right over here . alexis : okay . what 'd you see ? olivia : i saw ... the two of you ... having a wonderful life together ! [ laughs ] julian : i do n't -- i do n't get it . alexis : me , neither . olivia : okay , okay , you guys . there was no premonition . there was no premonition . but i did have just a gut feeling that everything was gon na go really great tomorrow , so that 's great , right ? julian : yeah , that 's good . that 's excellent . olivia : well , you got to admit , i am one of the most intuitive people around , so when i say that something 's gon na be terrific , it probably means something , right ? alexis : right . yeah . julian : it does . alexis : yeah . so , what does your intuition say about the candles and the wine and the music and the ... olivia : you guys -- you totally wanted to be alone . i 'm totally interrupting something . oh . [ cell phone rings ] julian : oh , look at that . another person who apparently did n't get the memo . excuse me . hello . olivia : i am -- i am so sorry . i will get out of your hair right now . who knew you were gon na have a romantic evening before the wedding ? usually , people save it till after . alexis : well , we like to shake it up . did you really think we wanted company tonight ? olivia : well , i mean , honestly , i thought it would be a nice gesture for me to come over and wish you well before your wedding . but i would have stopped over regardless , because you are marrying the father of my child . we got to get one thing perfectly clear . [ scene_break ] diane : why hire me instead of using in - house counsel at elq , or one of the many attorneys the cassadines have on retainer ? after all , i was opposing counsel when jason was charged with intent to kill . hayden : which is exactly when you first came to my attention . i knew you 'd be a perfect fit for this . i mean , between that ridiculous lawsuit michael filed on behalf of elq and the reading of helena 's will , a lot is in play , financially speaking . it 's imperative that nikolas and i keep our business dealings on the down - low . diane : well , in addition to my legal services , you are also paying for my silence , which is why very few of my clients ever quibble with my hourly rate . i 'm not cheap , by the way , but i 'm worth every penny . no , what you and nikolas decide to do with your finances is strictly your business -- no one else 's . speaking of which , is your husband going to be joining us soon ? he is aware of this plan , is n't he ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : there are plenty of reasons to look into hayden 's past , including something that happened on our wedding night . but before i give you any details , are you gon na take the case , or did you just agree to meet with me so you could tell me off ? sam : i assume you already know the answer , but just in case you need to hear the words , you can go to hell , nikolas . [ scene_break ] morgan : dad 's overreacting to something minor . it 's very minor . sonny : really ? remember that girl who introduced herself to us in the warehouse the other day ? carly : darby , the brunette ? sonny : yeah . well , morgan and darby were having sex -- morgan : no , it -- no . sonny : shut up ! in the warehouse . my manager saw the security cameras . carly : what the hell ? why ? why ? morgan : chill out ! please , chill out . sonny : hey ! carly : do n't you tell me to chill out . what the hell is wrong with you ? what are you thinking ? what are you doing ? what about kiki ? carly : does she know about this ? morgan : uh , yeah . carly : you told her ? morgan : no , she walked in on us , okay ? ! which is why i do n't need you two on top of that , giving me a bunch of problems ! carly : calm down , all right ? your father and i have a right to be concerned about you , morgan . morgan : it was an accident . it was an accident . it 's not like i got in a truck , and i crashed it in the warehouse and hurt someone . the warehouse is fine . your beans -- they 're fine . he 's overreacting ! he 's overreacting to this . carly : you really think that ? morgan : yes , i do . carly : are you taking your pills , morgan ? morgan : oh , my -- mm ! why is everybody asking me this ? ! sonny : because you 're acting manic ! like you 're not taking your medication ! which is unacceptable ! [ scene_break ] paul : why deny it anymore ? you already know the truth . anna : you 've been working overtime to cover your tracks . you even had robert and me apprehended in canada so that carlos could get away . paul : you 're right . i did . anna : but carlos murdered duke on julian jerome 's orders . he 's the only one that can testify to that . i need him . i need him so i can get justice for duke . why are you doing this ? what is it , to control me ? paul : you did admit to shooting the man four times . anna : that whole thing was staged ! sloane and carlos , they were somehow working together . and it happened even before you arrived in port charles . how do you factor in to any of this ? why would you kill sloane and then -- and then cover ... it 's sonny , is n't it ? paul : sonny ? anna : ava told me that carlos shot sonny , and i knew at the time -- i - i thought that was impossible , because i believed that i had killed him already , back in may . but i now know that he was alive and well then . so what would be his motives for shooting sonny ? who was carlos working for ? julian ... or you ? paul : me . anna : yeah . that 's why you 're covering for carlos , because he did your dirty work . or maybe you shot sonny yourself . paul : now , why would i do that ? anna : because sonny is an obstacle to anyone who wants the power in this city . maybe you wanted him out of the way . maybe sloane knew that , and -- and that 's why you killed him . paul : no , you 're way off the mark ! it had nothing to do with shooting sonny . i killed kyle sloane , because i had to !

[ scene_break ] nikolas : i know you 're still angry . sam : angry , nikolas ? angry ? you and elizabeth stole jason 's life from him . you kept him from me and danny for almost a year . and for what ? so elizabeth could play house with a husband who was n't hers ? so you could get a little bit more money by holding on to elq ? do you understand how selfish you are ? and i ca n't believe you could be that arrogant to actually stand here and ask me to do something for you . the answer is no . nikolas : do n't do it for me , then . do it for spencer . i do n't want him to suffer because i made a poor choice . if hayden is not who she claims to be , i need to protect my son the same way i know you would protect danny . sam : okay , i see your point . it 's nice to see you actually still have a heart , at least where your son is concerned . nikolas : so does that mean you 'll do it ? sam : yes , i will investigate hayden . just tell me what you know .

[ scene_break ] anna : sloane destroyed your daughter 's life ? how ? paul : your pal mac is quite the private investigator . he 's probably uncovered all the gory details . you can ask him . anna : i 'm asking you . paul : shortly after i cut off susan financially , she moved in with sloane . she kept in contact with jenny , her stepmom . and jenny told me that she met sloane a couple of times . he seemed like a man with some swagger but appeared to really care for susan . anna : yeah , sounds like sloane . paul : so , over time , sloane became rather controlling . and he , uh , would demean susan . he would undermine her self - confidence . if she questioned him or disagreed with him in any way , he would lash out at her verbally and physically . and unfortunately , susan was so angry with me that she did n't ask for help . anna : did she not tell jenny any of this ? paul : susan knew that if she told jenny , that jenny would tell me . susan endured this abuse with this creep for over a year . and when she finally summoned up the courage to leave him , he became enraged . and he beat her ... and he raped her ... savagely .

[ sighs ] anna : oh , paul , i 'm so sorry . i ... i did n't know . paul : jenny and i , uh , we managed to get her to an er , and ... when i was comfortable with the care that she was given , i went out to look for sloane . and i swear to you , anna , if i had found him that night , i would have killed him with my bare hands . anna : yeah . paul : but he must have known i was looking for him , or something , 'cause he took off . anna : you never found him ? paul : [ scoffs ] she refused to press charges 'cause she was too traumatized . so sloane managed to move far away somewhere . and i was never able to confront the bastard . but then the strangest thing happened . see , i - i came back to port charles . and i renewed my professional relationship with janice lomax . and she mentioned to me that she was having some trouble with her ex - police- commissioner . anna : kyle sloane . [ scene_break ] morgan : you can think it , but you ca n't say it , huh ? you think i 'm crazy . carly : your father did n't say that , morgan . sonny : you 're not taking your medication . you 're acting irresponsibly . you have to learn that your actions have consequences . morgan : i do n't care ! sonny : well , you should care ! morgan : i do n't care ! i do n't want the stupid job , all right ? i came to you that day 'cause i wanted to work for your organization , your real business , the territory , not haul around stupid coffee beans all day long ! okay ? ! carly : your father was trying to give you a chance -- morgan : stop defending him , please . stop . carly : morgan , we 're trying to make you understand what 's going on here . morgan : i understand . i understand . i understand that i need to leave . that 's what i understand . carly : where are you going ? morgan , where are you going ? morgan : i would do anything for you two . anything . but all you guys do is see me as a problem that you have to fix , a screw - up . but that 's fine . screw both of you . carly : morgan .

[ scene_break ] paul : when lomax first mentioned kyle sloane , i thought , `` this has got to be a mistake . it 's someone else with the same name . it 's -- it 's coincidence . `` but then i saw his picture , and i realized it 's the same son of a bitch who abused my daughter for well over a year . now , he had been fired from the police department at that time . and i had no way to start looking for him . but before i could even think about that , fate put him in my path again . and you were there when it happened . anna : i was ? paul : at the police station , the night that michael corinthos informed us that carlos rivera had possibly shot his father . there was an apb and a reward out for rivera . do you remember ? right ? anna : yeah , yeah . paul : so the desk sergeant on duty that night had told me that i had a call , that somebody was -- was demanding to speak to me . i took the call . and it was sloane on the line . he had no idea who he was talking to . he said he had some information about carlos rivera , and he -- he asked that we meet . so since he had no idea who he was talking to , he must not have valued my daughter enough to remember her father 's name . right ? anna : what happened ? paul : so i met this creep down at the dock . and it was so surreal . it was as if i was standing outside my body . and we had a conversation . and he told me that , uh , he and rivera were going to set you up , so that you would believe that you had murdered rivera . he gave me carlos 's wallet , and he gave me the gun that you had used . so all the while that i 'm listening to the story , i 'm trying to figure out how i can avenge susan . so when our business was concluded , i said , very calmly , something about killing two birds with one stone . and then i shot him to death . and the only thing i regret is that somebody saw me do it . [ scene_break ] alexis : you saw blood on julian 's hands ? olivia : it was -- it was just a - a flash , you know , like an image . i 'm sure it does n't have anything to do with your wedding tomorrow . i - i got to go . julian : see ya ! alexis : well , that was disturbing . julian : well ...

'cause there 's no murder without a body . paul : and it happened to benefit carlos , as well . anna : of course . by confirming his so - called `` death , `` then that would end all the efforts to bring him in for shooting sonny or murdering duke . paul : mm , once i realized that you knew that carlos was still alive and would stop at nothing to find him , i had to intervene . so i was able to help carlos evade you and robert . anna : ah . you 're still helping him , are n't you , you son of a bitch ? you have been playing mind games with me for months . you 've been manipulating my guilt about killing carlos , when all along , you knew he was alive . paul : it 's not like you 're innocent in all of this . carlos was unarmed . you could have arrested him , yet you chose to shoot him four times . you wanted the kind of justice the courts could n't provide to you , the same kind of justice that i was looking for susan ! anna : even so , i think jordan needs to hear about this . at the very least , the world needs to know that carlos is still alive . he has to be apprehended and answer for killing duke . paul : [ sighs ] i was hoping that if you knew the whole story , you would see things differently . but if you want to call jordan , that 's your choice . but , anna , there -- anna : could you just go ? get out . go !

[ scene_break ] alexis : i 'm just going over some of nikolas ' papers . he never had a chance to change his will . emily : what does that mean ? alexis : it means that the cassadine estate -- or what 's ever left of it -- is being equally divided between kristina and lesley lu . emily : mm - hmm . luke and helena are both going to hate that . alexis : well , finally they have something in common . emily : will there be enough money to send the girls to college ? [ alexis sighs ] alexis : i obviously had planned to send kristina to college myself , but it was very generous of nikolas to provide for her . he also left a trust to cover laura 's medical expenses so that she 'll be able to remain in her present facility . emily : that 's good . alexis : emily , you -- you bought him this house . i know he wants you to have it , and if you want it , it 's yours . i will do whatever -- emily : no , no , no , no , i do n't -- i do n't need money . if the quartermaines went bankrupt tomorrow , jason would give me anything i wanted . he has more money than he needs and he never spends it on anything anyway . yeah , i knew it would be him . alexis : excuse me ? emily : coming out of that hotel . they pulled all the firefighters out , and they said that -- they said anyone left in that building was dead . and i kept explaining that nikolas and jason were still in there , but no one would listen . and then i saw someone through the smoke . and i wanted it to be nikolas , but i knew -- even before courtney ran in , i knew that it was jason and that only one of them could live . when courtney ran in , he was holding her so tightly , and i was screaming inside because i knew that nikolas would never hold me again .

[ scene_break ] jason : hey , what are you doin ' here ? carly : i was here trying to talk some sense into dante . jason : okay , see , that 's just the problem , because dante 's a cop , and you can not trust that guy . he could repeat anything that you say to him . carly : somebody has to do something , all right ? i told him he needed to lie at sonny 's trial , say he falsified the evidence -- jason : that 's not gon na happen . carly : you do n't know that . you do n't know that . he 's all over the place . he wants to take sonny down , but he does n't want to send his father to prison . jason : i do n't like sonny 's choices here . if he claims that he killed claudia , he 's going to prison , or he 's gon na have to leave the country , which it 's not gon na be good for michael . and if sonny somehow gets acquitted , the cops are still gon na look at michael for this . carly : no , they wo n't . they 're just gon na think that sonny got away with it again , and we 'll be okay . jason : okay , if sonny says he killed claudia , you 're gon na have to change your testimony to help him . carly : are you worried that i wo n't be able to lie well enough to convince a jury ? jason : no . i know that you 're gon na do what you have to do . i just wish sonny would listen to diane instead of doin ' this the hard way .

[ scene_break ] maxie : i tried to tell you that i 'm a terrible person . i mean , setting up sabrina to believe she killed someone -- it 's just the latest worst example . frisco : well , even terrible people generally have a motive , so there has to be a reason why you did what you did to sabrina . maxie : my doctor hates her . frisco : your doctor ? are you two friends ? maxie : god , no . i ca n't stand her . frisco : okay , i 'm a little confused . why would you purposefully ruin someone 's life for a doctor that you ca n't stand ? maxie : i do n't have a choice . she knows my secret . frisco : what secret ?

[ scene_break ] frisco : you 're gon na have to fill me in here , maxie , because it sounds like this doctor 's blackmailing you . maxie : dr. westbourne said she would tell everything that she knows unless i agreed to help her ruin sabrina 's life . frisco : well , then , we 're back to the big question -- what is this secret ? why are you allowing this doctor to control your life ? [ scene_break ] britt : patrick , i did nothing wrong . i approached you and your daughter in a place we both work , and i offered her a box of candy . sabrina : emma , honey , what 's wrong ? emma : i 'm scared . sabrina : you 're scared ? patrick : britt tried to apologize for upsetting her a few weeks ago , and she was n't having it , and she ran away . sabrina : but you 're okay how , right , honey ? you 're with your daddy , and you 're safe . felix : and look what i 've got for you . sabrina : ooh . it 's okay . he 's my friend . patrick : yeah . this is felix . he 's a student nurse with sabrina . felix : and i 've got a magic wand just for you . emma : will it make her disappear ? felix : ooh . patrick : do you mind leaving us alone ? britt : i 'm waiting to talk to sabrina . felix : uh , the nurses are having a party in the break room . emma : daddy , can i go to the party ? patrick : yeah , yeah . you want to go ? as long as it 's okay with felix . felix : oh [ chuckles ] she 'll be the belle of the ball . patrick : okay . felix : i have a coecoe makeup kit just for you . emma : can i put it on all by myself ? felix : a girl after my own heart . [ chuckles ] emma : poof ! you 're gone . felix : come on , honey . patrick : i 'm asking you not to speak to my child again . do you understand ? britt : i think you 'll find that if you allow emma free rein and let her be openly rude to adults , you 'll quickly have an out - of - control child . patrick : just leave her alone , okay ? you understand that ? britt : fine . if you insist on misinterpreting everything that i do , there 's nothing left to say . i wrote to dr. quartermaine about you . i thought it was only fair to give you a copy . [ footsteps depart ] [ scene_break ] maxie : on second thought , this father / daughter bonding moment is not exactly working out . you have more important things to do , like save the world . and i have my own life , which you never really cared about before -- frisco : sorry . too late . maxie : what 's too late ? frisco : you confided in me . your my daughter , you 're miserable , and i 'm gon na help you no matter how long it takes . now , what is this secret ? what has this doctor got over you ? maxie : you 're gon na hate me . frisco : it 's not possible . by the way , i 'm far from perfect . if anybody knows about making mistakes -- a lifetime 's worth -- it 's me . maxie : dad , this is so much more than a mistake . it 's unforgivable . frisco : maxie ? maxie : dr. westbourne knows the baby i 'm carrying does n't belong to dante and lulu .

[ scene_break ] connie : you want me ? sonny : yeah , i do . connie : [ chuckles ] sonny : it took me a while to figure it out , but -- i 'm not gon na -- i 'm not gon na hide anymore , you know ? for months , we wanted different things . we were driving each other away , and we even made some sort of true . i d -- i did n't see this coming . this is n't -- this is n't about kate anymore . this is -- it 's about you . you got to believe that . you got to believe me . [ scene_break ] steve : all clear . olivia : well , everything seems to be where we left it . i do n't see anything missing , so -- steve : i - i must have left the door unlocked . i was a little distracted about that call about my mother . olivia : would you please not say your `` mother `` and `` unlocked door `` in the same breath , please ? steve : i 'm sorry . olivia : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i know . i need to be a little bit more sensitive . steve : you are sensitive . olivia : you think ? steve : i know . olivia : did you check the shower ? steve : no . why ? olivia : maybe sabrina 's in there . you know , we never did figure that out -- why i had that vision of you two , uh , lathering it up the other day . [ scene_break ] sabrina : `` dear , dr. quartermaine , as you probably know , one of our student nurses , sabrina santiago , made an egregious error in the e.r . the other night that resulted in the tragic death of a decorated police officer . in light of that , i feel compelled to inform you that in my many experiences with her , i have found sabrina to be grossly incompetent and hideously unprofessional . `` patrick : she 's calling -- you 're calling her unprofessional ? that 's ridiculous . britt : i guess we 'll agree to disagree . keep reading , sabrina . sabrina : `` not only is she slovenly , but she is frequently distracted by her crush on one of our prominent male physicians . given that her graduation is approaching , you should ask yourself if miss santiago is someone we want on staff at general hospital . yours truly , britt westbourne . `` patrick : sa -- [ scene_break ] lulu : i miscarried dante and lulu 's baby on new year 's eve . it was the same night that spinelli thought his girlfriend had dumped him . we met up by accident . he was drunk , and i - i was a wreck , and we slept together . but spinelli loves ellie . and by the time i found out i was pregnant , they were back together . and then she was paralyzed in an accident , and , i mean , there was no way he was gon na leave her then . frisco : so , this about loyalty ? spinelli feels obligated to this girl ? maxie : that 's what i thought or -- or what i wanted to think . but spinelli chose ellie . i mean , she 's a genuinely good person . she 's funny and -- and smart , and i can see how much she cares about him . and even now , when it looks like she 's gon na be okay , i - i just ca n't destroy them . i ca n't do it . [ scene_break ] ellie : oh ! this is my favorite song . maybe we should save the dancing for next year . i mean , i ca n't even stand on my own . spinelli : do you trust me ? ellie : yeah , of course , i trust you . there 's just -- there 's limitations , you know , that anyone can -- spinelli : so we work with them , okay ? [ chuckles ] i talked to your physical therapist . he gave me a few guidelines , okay ? so -- [ slow , romantic music plays ] spinelli : all right . now put your arms around me . ellie : oh . singer : what you mean to me -- [ scene_break ] maxie : i - i did n't get a chance to tell dante and lulu that i miscarried , because they were away . and i was pregnant again by the time they came back . and i thought that it was like this miracle , that i could just keep my mouth shut , and dante and lulu could have the baby that they wanted , and spinelli could feel free to be with ellie , without feeling obligated to me or a child that he did n't plan to have . i thought everyone would be happy , and then my doctor found out , and she threatened to tell unless i did what she wanted , and what she wanted was for me to sabotage sabrina . [ cries ] do you think i 'm awful ? frisco : no , i do n't . i think you 're amazing . you 're my daughter , and i love you . and i believe you 've been sacrificing your happiness for everyone else 's . [ scene_break ] lulu : i thought the ice princess was a diamond . this looks like a burnt cake pop . laura : well , honey , before a diamond is cut and polished , it looks just like an ordinary rock . luke : when the ice princess first surfaced -- it looked like that . it was uncut . nobody knew what was underneath . laura : lulu , are you sure this was meant for you ? lulu : yeah , that 's what the note said . dante : here . take a look . it does n't say who sent it . laura : well , there can only be so many possibilities , right ? luke : she 'd have to get her hands on it first . lulu : who 's `` she `` ? luke : well , your mother and i had so many enemies in those days , it 's kind of useless to speculate . dante : sure , but you two obviously have a pretty good idea who it might be . laura : helena . luke : cassadine .

[ scene_break ] maxie : i was fine with my decision , and dr. westbourne was n't thrilled , but she was keeping the secret about the baby , until suddenly she insisted that i mess with sabrina or she 'd tell . frisco : sounds like a woman who uses leverage whenever she can find it . maxie : there 's a part of me that wanted to call her bluff . i mean , she 's a doctor . she could probably lose her license at this point . but i do n't want to risk it . i really want dante and lulu to have this baby . dad , what about sabrina ? frisco : yeah . sabrina . i 'll take care of that . maxie : how ? frisco : i 'm your father . i may not have been around for most of your life , but i 'm here now . and you 're very lucky because i am very experienced at dirty tricks . let 's go . [ scene_break ] lulu : you think helena cassadine sent me this ? seriously ? luke : well , i ca n't be sure , but she was always obsessed with the ice princess . dante : so , the note says , `` saw this and thought of you . `` why would helena be thinking about lulu ? luke : i do n't know . laura : she used it to control lucky . lulu : well , if she thinks that she can control me with this , she 's out of her mind . luke : well , you 're right there . she 's always been a couple of aces short of a full deck . the last time i saw the ice princess , it was tucked away safely in vault in zurich . ah . see there ? like i said , she 's crazy . she 's nuts , but she 's not without some smarts . dante : so there 's no way that helena has this diamond ? luke : well , the last time i saw it , it was in switzerland . but i suppose she could have gotten her hands on it . laura : but what is she trying to say to lulu ?

[ scene_break ] helena : tell sam ? why on earth would you want to do a thing like that ? nikolas : [ scoffs ] because she 's my cousin , because she thinks her husband is dead , and he is n't . helena : but jake is n't her husband . as far as sam knows , he is the man who took her hostage . nikolas : on your orders ! i 'm sure jake would have -- [ sighs ] jason had no say in the matter . i - i bet you were pretty proud of yourself , were n't you , forcing jason to free faison , the man who tried to kill him ? helena : well , what can i say ? i have a deep appreciation for irony . nikolas : game over . helena : says who ? nikolas : says me . sam deserves the truth , and i 'm gon na make sure she gets it . helena : you will do nothing of the kind .

[ sighs ] you know , i would say `` i told you so , `` but ... you know , to be honest , jake did n't know what he was doing . we did n't know all of the facts . and , yes , he did all the things that i thought , but it was n't his fault . carly : i just feel bad that i abandoned him . sam : what are you talking about ? you were his biggest defender . carly : yeah , until i was n't . i mean , i turned the evidence in to the police , and they arrested him , and i basically disappeared . sam : you had a lot going on . carly : [ laughs ] you think ? i was home with josslyn when i got that call that there was a bomb on the haunted star and that michael and sonny were the ones who got rid of it . i tore down to the pier , and there 's michael standing there telling me how sonny took the bomb out of his hands and got it into the water . i was ... i mean , i could have lost them both . sam : i know . but because of them , because of michael and sonny , they saved a boat load of people , literally . carly : i know . thank god . yeah . yeah . sam : i , um , i heard -- i heard about the pardon . carly : yeah , it 's good news , huh ? sam : yeah , it 's really good news . i mean , especially for sonny . i mean , with ava gone , now he can take care of his daughter . carly : not if michael has anything to say about it . [ scene_break ] michael : before you even start , i already got the same lecture from carly . sabrina : no , michael , i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to lecture . i 'm just ... i just want to make sure you 're doing this for the right reasons . michael : and you think i 'm not , that it 's all about revenge , right ? sabrina : is n't it ? michael : look , yes , yes , i want payback for what sonny did to my father , but more importantly , i want to protect avery . look , she 's in danger , sabrina . you of all people should understand that considering what you almost did to her . [ scene_break ] duke : i 'm not sure that i follow . i was only filling in 'cause you were out of commission . but now that you 're back and you 're free , you can take over running your territories . sonny : under normal circumstances , i would . but i ca n't be associated with my business right now . not until this custody case is resolved . duke : what custody case ? [ scene_break ] anna : they 're good . sloane : just take it . anna : are you sure ? sloane : mm . i 've lost my appetite . anna : that 's a pity . where were we ? what were we saying ? oh , uh , so , while i was in d.c. , i spoke to some of my friends , you know . and they confirmed for me that there was , in fact , this vacancy in justice , you know , because you 're here . you decided to focus all your talents on ridding the city of crime and corruption . sloane : is there a point in here ? anywhere ? anna : yeah . a little point . um , point being , while i regret the fact that i ca n't actually finish what i started as commissioner , i saw this as an opportunity for me to serve my adopted country in a different way . sloane : different how ? anna : i 'm special agent anna devane , and as such , my first order of business ... is you . so , i 'm launching an investigation into the recent mayoral election . sloane : what does that have to do with me ? anna : oh , please . let 's not pretend like we did n't have this conversation . sloane : i 'd hardly call it a conversation . more like an assault of baseless accusations . anna : it 's not baseless if it 's -- it 's true , is it ? you conspired with mayor lomax to have her elected illegally . sloane : why would i do that ? anna : well , so she could install you as commissioner . sloane : interesting . is n't it ? my only question -- how you gon na prove it ? anna : you do n't need to worry about that . all you need to know , kyle ... is i 'm gon na bring you down and anyone who helped you along the way . [ scene_break ] nikolas : what are you gon na do ? you gon na sic your goons on me again ? and then what ? how long do you think you can keep me locked up , honestly ? helena : would you cease with your dramatics ? no , i do n't need to resort to physical force . there are other ways to keep you quiet . nikolas : you have nothing to threaten me with . helena : oh , on the contrary . what about your relationship with the commissioner of police ? i 'm sure the authorities would be more than intrigued with your secret dealings . nikolas : dealings which have only been to your benefit . helena : true . but i 'm not the one who fixed the mayoral election . i have proof . oh , nikolas , i would be so happy to keep that information to myself -- as long as you do the same thing with what you know about jason . [ scene_break ] patrick : the way the device is embedded , it 's right next to a major artery . elizabeth : but you can remove it ? patrick : i can ... but it might kill him . [ scene_break ] sam : so , michael is suing for custody of avery ? [ scene_break ] duke : what would drive him to such extremes ? [ scene_break ] carly : the pardon set him off . sam : okay , i - i get that it must be upsetting . michael wants sonny to be punished for aj 's murder . carly : yep . and since the courts did n't do it , michael has taken it upon himself . sam : wait a minute . by stealing sonny 's child ? carly : he does n't consider it stealing . he considers it justice , you know , taking sonny 's child the same way sonny took michael from aj . sam : wow . carly : yeah . sam : i ca n't imagine how much pain michael must be going through . carly : i tried to talk to him . i tried to get him to back off . i think it just made him dig in even harder . i mean , these are the times that i miss jason the most , you know . he would know exactly what to say to get through to michael . sam : how 's sonny dealing with it all ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i ca n't believe this is happening , but it is . i got to -- i got to make a strong case 'cause i can not have my character called into question . duke : and in order to do that , you have to stay as far away from the business as possible . sonny : which means i still have to have you running things . [ scene_break ] carly : sonny 's fighting with everything he 's got . he loves that little girl . sam : no , i 'm -- i 'm sure . i mean , say what you want about sonny , but he 's always been devoted to his children . carly : michael disagrees . i mean , i was talking to michael , and i 'm telling him how much sonny loves him , and he 's standing there listing all the ways that he 'd been hurt or in danger because of sonny . and he admits that he wants avery out of revenge . but he insists that he also wants to protect her from physical danger . sam : i get that . i mean , you have to admit that , in the past , sonny 's life has been dangerous for children . carly : michael 's hitting sonny right where he 's most vulnerable . where do you think michael learned that tactic ? sonny , of course . my worst nightmare , sam . michael and sonny going head to head . [ scene_break ] sonny : since the case clearly is n't going away ... i 've got no choice but to deal with michael directly . [ scene_break ] sabrina : i do n't know why you would bring that up . michael : i 'm not trying to attack you or open up old wounds . it 's just you admitted that out of a need for revenge , you were trying to hurt avery . sabrina : yes , i did that . and i will forever regret it . but it was n't about avery . i mean , it was , because i put her life at risk , but , look , i understand that . but it -- it was ava that i was trying to hurt . i wanted ava to suffer . michael : and she would have . but in you setting out to hurt ava , the one that would have suffered the most would have been avery . sabrina : that 's exactly what i 'm talking about . are n't you afraid the same thing could happen now ? michael : are you comparing me trying to get custody to you almost causing a premature birth ? sabrina : not physically , no , but , michael , think about what you 're doing , okay ? you 're taking a child away from her rightful father all so you can get satisfaction . michael : no , this is all so i can protect my sister . i grew up in sonny 's house . i 'll spare you the full list of the times i was in danger , but i - i spent a year in a coma because i took a bullet that was meant for sonny . as long as avery is in sonny 's house , she 's in danger . she has a target on her back . i do n't want that for her . do you ? sabrina : no . of course not . i do n't -- i would n't want that for any child . michael : i just want to give her a better life . i mean , how can you argue with that ? [ scene_break ] alexis : please do n't end our friendship over this . ned : well , i - i want us to be friends , but i also want you to be happy , and i just do n't think julian 's the man to make that happen . alexis : i know you feel that way , and i appreciate -- ned : he 'll bend over backwards now , but that 's because you helped him beat the charges against him . but what happens next time , when you fail to get him out of jail ? alexis : can we at least hope there wo n't be a next time ? ned : do you really think he 'll want to still be around to be there to hold on to you ? alexis : so , what are you saying ? he 's using me ? ned : i 'm saying he may need a competent lawyer more than he needs a relationship . that 's all i 'm saying . alexis : wow . julian : is there a problem ? alexis : yes ! ned : no . olivia : well , that clears that up . julian : okay , for your information , i love this woman , not that it 's any of your business . ned : i thought you just said it was for my information , you idiot . alexis : you know what ? ! olivia : this is a hospital ! it 's not -- nurse : ms. falconeri ? olivia : yes . nurse : dr. chu was called in to an emergency c - section , so she 's gon na need to reschedule your appointment . olivia : got it . thank you . nurse : mm - hmm . olivia : [ sighs ] where were we ? julian : are you pregnant ? olivia : i 'm sorry . did you just ask me if i was pregnant ? why would you ask that ? julian : because you have an appointment with dr. chu , who , last i checked , is an ob / gyn . ned : this does n't concern you , julian . julian : well , i beg to differ since i could be the father . olivia : of what ? some imaginary baby ? julian : are you pregnant ? alexis : there are a thousand reasons why a woman goes to see a gynecologist , personal reasons . olivia : thank you . ned : thank you . julian : okay , if they 're so personal , why did she bring him ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : you 're absolutely right . i want nothing but good things for avery , especially after what i nearly put her through . and if you can keep her safe and protected , then ... i 'm all for it . michael : i hear a `` but `` in there . sabrina : i 'm just not sure you 're being honest with me or with yourself . michael : about what ? sabrina : about why you 're really doing this . michael : [ sighs ] i 'm very , very clear on why i 'm doing this and who it benefits . avery . look , sonny likes to think of himself as a good father . i used to think that way , too . and if you would have asked me growing up if i were happy , i probably would have said yes . i mean , i did n't -- i did n't mind the bulletproof glass or the bodyguards . i was proud of the way i handled the danger . and i did everything i could to make sure that morgan and kristina were okay , 'cause i knew even as a child , we were targets , that sonny 's enemies would threaten us to get to him . just like they 'd threaten avery . yes -- yes , i - i want to make sonny pay . i want to hurt him . but more importantly , i want to protect my sister . [ scene_break ] sloane : so , how exactly did you turn this around ? you were about to be indicted ... anna : i was , was n't i ? sloane : ... for turning an international terrorist on the general population . anna : hmm . sloane : now you 're handed the reins to your own investigation ? anna : yeah , that 's correct . sloane : someone 's palms are mighty greasy in the d.c. area . anna : i 'm sorry ? sloane : clearly you 're in bed with someone . who is it ? anna : oh , i can relate to your anger and frustration , being pursued doggedly with no end in sight . it 's very upsetting . sloane : watch your step , anna . anna : oh , yeah ? why ? what if i do n't ? sloane : you might not like the consequences . duke : get your hands off the lady . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 'd do that ? you 'd send me to prison just to keep your secret ? helena : well , if i must . but you 're looking at this all wrong , nikolas . nikolas : really ? exactly how should i be looking at it ? helena : as incentive to be the cassadine i know you strive to be . nikolas : i 'm cassadine enough . maybe too much . helena : never . nikolas : why tell me at all ? you could have avoided this entire conversation . helena : well , in the first place , you asked . in the second place , i need you to have all the facts , as this affects our takeover of elq . now , read this . go . you 'll find all of the answers .

[ sighs ] i never wanted aj to be michael 's father . ever . i did n't want michael to learn the toxic combination of self - pity and entitlement , you know ? nothing was ever aj 's fault . he never took responsibility for anything . he was weak , and i despised him . you know , i wanted my son to be strong . i wanted him to be like jason and sonny -- fearless , smart , to go for what he wanted and be willing to pay the price , and that is exactly who michael is . he watched sonny . he learned from sonny . michael is the man that sonny , jason , and i made him , and now he 's using everything we taught him to go against sonny . sam : hey , i 'm so sorry . carly : it 's just so crazy . michael was always the fixer , you know ? he had this strength , and he would use that strength to hold our family together , and now he 's ... he 's tearing it apart , you know ? he is , and i - i ca n't get through to him , sam . i ca n't reach him . my son -- he 's my baby , and i miss him . sam : i know . carly : i really miss him .

[ alarms beeping ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : skye quartermaine 's elq shares ? how did you get these ? helena : [ chuckles ] from luke , of course . he used his spencer magic to charm that tart into handing hers over . nikolas : between skye 's and her daughter 's , that 's 16.5 % . helena : yes . so add that to what you have -- nikolas : i can do the math . helena : by all means . nikolas : it 's only 32 % -- not enough to take over the company . helena : but this is just the beginning . no , there are other quartermaines out there without strong allegiances -- dillon quartermaine hornsby , maya ward , oh , [ laughs ] and that unfortunately named brook lynn ashton . they are all ripe for the picking . now , if you were able to persuade them to join your side , that would give you well over 50 % . nikolas : and put me ahead of michael . helena : precisely . unless everyone were to learn that jake doe is jason morgan . no , that would cost you samantha 's 9 % , which was acquired by tracy . nikolas : it 'll cost me more than that . jason was devoted to michael . he went to prison to protect him . if jake learns that he 's jason , he 'll back michael , and the rest of the quartermaines will back jason . he was the heart of that family , whether he liked it or not . helena : well , that 's very astute of you . nikolas : [ sighs ] the quartermaines were my in - laws . i 'm familiar with their dynamic . helena : you realize that by keeping your mouth shut , you not only keep yourself out of prison , but you will get something in return .

[ scene_break ] rafe : i do n't know who this guy is or what he 's done . todd : nothing . well , nothing lately . rafe : but i know you . you killed my mother . todd : oh , snap . rafe : and then -- then came back to me , swore you did n't , took me out of my cell with some lame excuse about wanting to go back to the scene to walk through what happened , all so you could kill that other cop . why ? todd : why ? why indeed ? rafe : why did you have to do it in front of me ? what , was it a message that i was next or what ? todd : i know , yo . right ? when i saw him kill heather , i was like , `` what ? ! what is this guy capable of ? i mean , am i next ? is he gon na kill me next ? `` and you know he might have if the cops had n't shown up . rafe : i 'm not the only witness anymore . look , you ca n't intimidate me anymore , okay ? todd : go on , son . rafe : so what 's it gon na be ? you finally gon na change your story ? mcbain : no . it was n't me . i did n't do any of those things . rafe : well , then who did ? mcbain : his name is caleb . todd : caleb .

[ scene_break ] duke : of course , it 's possible , anna . that 's exactly what faison did to me . he stole my identity . he stole my memories . he took my love , the love i had for you , so he could try to win you over . anna : i know . i almost fell for it . i was just so happy to have you back that i could n't even see -- i could n't think . that 's what i mean when i talk about my instincts . duke : you 've got to stop blaming yourself . anna : i ca n't . oh , god , now i 'm in a position where i really have to use my gut , and i 'm scared . duke : i 'm not . you can handle anything that life throws your way . you 're anna devane . anna : [ chuckles ] duke : and we finally both know who i am . i 'm not faison . i 'm not this person lucy coe thinks i am , this joshua temple . i 'm duke lavery . anna : yes , you are . duke : more than that , i 'm a husband who 's still very much in love with his wife . anna : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] luke : did you just call her your fiancée ? scott : yeah , that 's what i called her , because that 's what she is , spencer . laura : it 's true . scotty and i are engaged to be married .

what happened between caleb and heather ? todd : i - i 'm -- [ sighs ] look , i was focused on escaping and then this whole thing -- i mean , you 're you , but it 's not you . it was all very bizarre . mcbain : let 's talk about caleb and the baby . you know , why 'd he want the baby ? must have been pretty significant if he was willing to kill for it . todd : yeah . he would have killed me , too , if the cops had n't come . mcbain : well , make sure it 's noted in the report , all right ? did he say anything to heather before he killed her ? todd : [ sighs ] he was -- he was upset at her for taking something that did not belong to her . mcbain : we 're talking about danny . todd : i do n't know . i mean , he said that -- that now it would be easy for him to get the mother to come with him . i do n't know . whole thing 's totally weird , but what the hell , right ? mcbain : no , it 's not at all . it all fits . todd : it fits . mcbain : yeah . rafe , did your mom ever mention a woman named livvie locke ? rafe : uh , yeah . i think she said they used to be friends or something . todd : okay , come on . who 's livvie locke ? mcbain : she 's a woman who apparently resembles sam as much as i resemble this caleb . todd : right . okay . so now there 's two double people running around port charles ? mcbain : when your mom was at the pcpd , she kept calling sam `` livvie . `` and lucy said that -- caleb was obsessed with this livvie . it was the reason for everything he did . todd : right . and nothing impresses a chick more than killing four people . mcbain : so if caleb 's after livvie -- then danny 's just the bait . caleb wants sam . [ scene_break ] duke : i know it must have been difficult for you , putting the brakes on things with luke . anna : yeah , i think we 'll end up friends . you know , that 's how we started , so i think that 's -- duke : may i be honest with you ? anna : oh , god , i think we 've earned that , do n't you , at this point ? duke : i 'm glad you 've ended things with him .

epiphany : well , that was a bust . sabrina : have to agree . 2014 nurses ' ball is n't getting off to the best start . epiphany : thanks to lucy coe . the ball 's biggest cheerleader and she could n't be bothered to show up for her own meeting ? sabrina : well , i 'm sure that lucy had good reason . just wonder what it was . tracy : what 's keeping anna ? lucy : i do n't know . she should 've called by now . god knows what heather did at miscavige to poor scott . tracy : and luke . lucy : well , we ca n't exactly ask heather , can we ? because she 's been put back downstairs in her cozy little cell . tracy : well , they 're not stupid . they know if i get within 5 feet of that bag of crazy , i 'm gon na wring her neck . and i 'm gon na wring anna 's , too , if she does n't find luke . lucy : and scott . anna : i have a warrant to search the premises . strunk : and you are ? anna : i am police commissioner anna devane . i have reason to believe that luke spencer and district attorney scotty baldwin are being held here at miscavige . sabrina : i 'm not even sure how i feel about participating in the nurses ' ball this year . epiphany : what are you talking about ? you 're the reason why the nurses ' ball got resurrected in the first place . sabrina : well , to honor robin , but now that she 's back ... the whole thing would be a little ... awkward . epiphany : mm - hmm . especially since you 're having drake jr. 's baby . patrick : i know what we can do to fix the situation . robin : you do ? patrick : yes . we need to go to your mother and we need to tell her everything that 's happening . robin : no . my mother ? no . patrick : and your mother is the only one that can fix this situation . robin : i 've already told you , nobody else can know . patrick : do you understand that i am not just going to let this happen ? i 'm not just gon na hand you over to nikolas cassadine 's long - lost uncle . nikolas : [ gasps ] elizabeth , what -- what are you doing here ? britt : [ clears throat ] dante : britt . uh , what are you doing here ? britt : i ... thought you might like to see your son . dante : [ chuckles ] britt : i 'm sorry . i -- i should 've called . i just assumed that you would want to see him right away , and i thought that i would bring him over , but if this is a bad time , i ... dante : well , uh ... we -- lulu 's father is in trouble . we were , uh ... we were just gon na go to the station to -- to -- lulu : you know what ? tracy 's there . she will call us if she has any news . right now , you got to spend time with your son . elizabeth : i am so sorry . i do n't mean to intrude . i ran into your uncle downstairs , and he told me to come right up . nikolas : oh , my uncle told you you could come up to my bedroom , did he ? elizabeth : i 'm sorry . i was n't thinking . nikolas : no , no , it 's -- it 's not your fault . it 's just my uncle . he 's , you know ... look , let 's just say that most cassadines have an overdeveloped sense of entitlement . my uncle victor , he just thinks he runs the world . elizabeth : yeah , i kind of got that . nikolas : but you and i have never stood on ceremony before . uh ... what can i do for you ? you 're obviously here for a reason . robin : but he 's not married yet . tell him how you feel about him . sabrina : so , you know about this . epiphany : everybody knows , sabrina . it 's a little hard to miss . sabrina : i mean , that patrick is the father . epiphany : well , your b.f.f . felix is n't quite known for his discretion . sabrina : yeah , tell me about it . trust me , this was n't part of the plan . i mean , initially , i did n't even want patrick to know about it , and i never would 've forced him to be involved , but ... he insisted . epiphany : well , drake jr. is an honorable man . sabrina : yeah , he is . [ scoffs ] he 's told me over and over that he wants to support me in any way that he can and that he wants to go to all of my appointments , which actually he should be here right now . i have an appointment with dr. chu . epiphany : huh . well , something must have come up . patrick : there 's a way out of this . robin : patrick , i already explained to you -- victor -- patrick : listen to me for one second , please , okay ? i ... i was at the hospital , and i ran into lucy . robin : you did n't tell her , did you ? patrick : no . no , i did n't tell her . robin , we have been through too much . i 'm not just gon na let you jet off on some mission for the wsb . it does n't matter what 's at stake . robin : patrick , i 'm gon na be safe , okay ? i 'll probably be in a lab somewhere , working , and when i can come back -- patrick : you just told me that you do n't know when you 're gon na come back . you just told me that you ca n't tell me where you 're going , you ca n't tell me what you 're doing . that is dangerous enough for me to not let you out of my sight , okay ? so we 're gon na go to your mom , and we 're gon na tell her everything that 's going on so she can get ahold of nikolas cassadine and -- robin : stop ! my mom can not know about any of this . anna : have you seen either of these men ? strunk : nope . sorry . anna : oh , you 're lying . he 's lying . we do n't like that . so that means you must be one of the staff that heather convinced to cooperate with her . strunk : heather webber 's certifiable . anna : yes , she is . she 's also quite shrewd and forthcoming , when it suits her . see , she 's already confessed to the fact that she is stowing luke spencer here , and i know that the d.a . came here to see heather , and he 's never returned . so , as ms . webber 's accomplice , you 're facing a long list of charges , not least of which is kidnapping and false imprisonment . now , we 're quite happy to tear this place apart , go room to room . are n't we , boys ? officer : mm - hmm . anna : yeah . if you 're the least bit interested in helping yourself , you will take us to where these men are right now . tracy : i knew luke was in trouble . he is more than a match for one little stinky raccoon , and yet he vanishes from the boathouse . anna does n't want to hear a word about it , says , `` not to worry . he 's probably on one of his walkabouts . `` and all along , he was locked up in miscavige . lucy : well , scott hates hospitals , and i forced him right into going there . i guilted him into worrying about his son . i told him , `` you got to make sure that you take care of franco 's needs , `` and all the time , scott needed me . where was i ? he has been suffering , and i did n't even know anything about it . tracy : why do you care so much about scott baldwin ? lucy : of course i care about scott . he is my ex - husband , after all , and we do share a child together . actually , we never really set out to share a child together intentionally . i just sort of did it to be a pal because i cared so much about scotty and dominique , and i wanted to carry their baby ... tracy : stop . lucy : and then , over time , our relationship deepened . tracy : did you think that i wanted a recap of your entire sordid relationship with scott baldwin ? and by the way , if memory serves , the child you were carrying was due to inherit a great sum of money . i do not doubt that you were well - paid . lucy : i most certainly was not . tracy : whatever . the bottom line is , it 's ancient history , and i do n't know why you 're dredging it up . lucy : because you happened to ask me about it , and i 'm very polite , and so i just told you all about it . tracy : uh - huh . lucy : unh - unh . no , no , no . no , no ! no , no . you do n't get to say `` uh - huh . `` what is that supposed to mean ? tracy : well , i just think there must be more to it . lucy : well , there is n't , and that 's actually none of your business . tracy : did i hit a nerve ? anna : you made the right choice , mr. strunk . it 's always wise to cooperate with the authorities . strunk : this is it . anna : well , open it . open it . oh , my god . robin : i want to say that i believe you . patrick : then do it . robin : but jason 's life is at stake . if my mother finds out , she starts an investigation , victor hears about this . i mean , i do n't think you understand . all he has to do is turn off the machines , and then ... jason dies . if that happens , i mean ... i 'll never forgive myself . patrick : jason 's the bait , robin . victor needs you . you remember that ? robin : listen , i spent the last two years of my life locked up in a lab , away from everyone that i love , including you and our daughter . there is no part of me that wants to do this . but i have to . i ca n't let jason die , which means i ca n't go up against victor . i mean , for all i know , he 's probably listening to us right now . wait . what are you doing ? patrick : we 're going to see your mom . robin : no . patrick : yes , we are . robin : patrick -- victor : oh . hello . i hope you do n't mind me dropping by . just happened to be in the neighborhood . britt : i 'm really glad i caught you . this is the best time of day to see him . he tends to get a little cranky right before his nap . dante : well , that 's hard to imagine . britt : oh , believe me , there are times i think he 's trying ... [ pager beeping ] britt : ... to set a new world 's record . it 's the hospital . just ... oh . i 'm sorry . dr. chu had an emergency , so i have to cover . um ... dante : uh , what are you gon na do with ben ? britt : well , i do n't have time to take him back to wyndemere , so i 'll just bring him with me and drop him off at the hospital daycare . dante : well , you could -- you could leave him here . he can -- he could hang with us . britt : uh , are you sure ? dante : yeah , i 'm sure . i mean , ben and lulu are already good buddies , and , uh ... i mean , he is my son . lulu : we would be happy to look after him . britt : okay . uh -- uh , great . um ... there 's extra clothes , diapers , formula . it 's -- it 's almost time to feed him , so if he starts fussing , just give him a bottle . um ... okay . hey , you be good for -- for your dad and lulu . okay ? see ya later . thank you . dante : yeah . hey , britt . thanks for bringing him by . elizabeth : there 's something i want to talk to you about . nikolas : sounds serious . do you mind if i ... go get dressed before we continue our discussion ? elizabeth : no . please . nikolas : thank you . elizabeth : [ sighs ] oh , come on , elizabeth . it 's now or never . sabrina : hey , patrick , it 's me -- sabrina . i 'm here at g.h . , and i 'm about to go into that -- um , that appointment that i have with dr. chu , and when we spoke , you said that you wanted to be here . anyway , um , maybe there 's some sort of mix - up or something . give me a call when you get this . epiphany : well , that drake jr. 's a very busy guy . sabrina : yeah , no , i know . anyway , i told him he did n't have to come , that i could handle it . epiphany : of course you can . you 're as tough as they come , sabrina santiago . [ both laugh ] epiphany : and i 'm sure that patrick will be able to make it to the next one . but if you are in need of some moral support , i 'm sure that i could pinch - hit for him this time . sabrina : really ? epiphany : sure . i mean , i 'm in the middle of my shift , but i have a half and hour i could spare . sabrina : you know what ? actually , maybe you should n't , because if obrecht finds out , she 's gon na ... epiphany : do you really think that i 'm afraid of frau doktor ? if she wants my respect , she 's gon na have to earn it . trust me -- i ca n't wait for that woman to cross my path . nikolas : hey , what 'd you want to discuss ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] it 's actually kind of awkward . nikolas : is this about what happened at dante and lulu 's ? because if it is , the last thing i want is for that to come between us , okay ? britt said she did n't know that dante was ben 's father , and i believe her . elizabeth : i understand . this has nothing to do with the baby . dante : hey , man . you 're happy you 're out of that stroller , huh ? wow . what 's up ? i ca n't believe i have a son . sabrina : patrick could n't make it , so it 's just me and you , dr. chu ... nikolas : you 're not here about the baby ? elizabeth : no . i know you got engaged . nikolas : oh . you do ? elizabeth : i saw you . when i was leaving lulu and dante 's , you ... were proposing . nikolas : i 'm sorry . i did n't see you . elizabeth : well , understandably . you were focused on what you were doing . i did n't want to interrupt . nikolas : of course . yeah , yeah . it 's true . i proposed to britt , and she ... accepted . is that why you 're here ? you -- you have something to say about that ? elizabeth : yes . please do n't marry her . lucy : no , you did n't hit a nerve . in fact , you did n't hit anything at all . [ fingers clicks ] more to the point , complete miss . tracy : really ? methinks the lady doth protest too much . lucy : no , she does n't . i 'm just trying to nip you in your bud . tracy : uh , you know , i think it 's you and scott baldwin that need the nipping . lucy : no , it 's not . me and scott are just perfectly fine , thank you very much . tracy : really ? and how does your husband feel about that ? lucy : he does n't happen to know anything about it at all ! tracy : about what ? i thought there was nothing to know . officer : you have the right to remain silent . anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . strunk : you do n't say . officer : listen , you have a right to an attorney ... officer : mr. baldwin . sir . sir . mr. baldwin . mr. baldwin . luke : [ groans , mumbling ] officer : he 's coming around . anna : luke , can you hear me , luke ? luke . luke : where am i ? anna : call it in . we need to get them to the hospital . luke : where am i ? anna : luke , it 's anna . luke : oh . anna ? anna : yes , yes . luke : [ mumbling ] patrick : is this him ? victor : oh . uh , forgive me . victor cassadine . ah , well . we have n't been formally introduced . you must be dr. patrick drake . yes . a great neurosurgeon , husband to the brilliant dr. robin scorpio drake . but i want you to know that my great - nephew , spencer -- i mean , he 's so taken with your daughter , emma . patrick : do n't say her name . victor : oh . patrick : do n't ever say her name again . victor : well , as you wish . patrick : i 'm gon na make this brief , mr. cassadine -- my wife is not gon na help you with your plan . victor : oh , dear . you 've told your husband . robin : [ sighs ] do n't play games . you know that i told him . that 's why you 're here . victor : that 's very perceptive . but i also expect that the daughter of robert scorpio and anna devane to be familiar with the rules of espionage . robin : well , the rules are that there are no rules . victor : i 'm afraid we 've had your wife under surveillance -- a necessary evil under these complicated times . i 'm also aware of your plans to go to the very formidable ms . devane . patrick : right . so how do you think she 's gon na feel when she finds out that you 're coercing her daughter ? victor : well , i made robin an offer . but the agreement , however , is contingent to certain restrictions ... which you 've already violated . robin : so , what are you gon na do ? victor : well , it 's up to you , robin . i mean , you 're welcome to go to your mother and tell her everything , but know this -- once you open your mouth , then your friend jason morgan is ... what is that wonderful american expression ? ah . yes . toast . tracy : now that i think about it , you and scott baldwin are not known for your moral integrity . lucy : and you are ? tracy : no . but i have never pretended to be reformed . you , on the other hand , went from being a money - grubbing tramp to the patron saint of the nurses ' ball . and scott , at one point in his illustrious career , managed to finagle himself into a position to steal a child 's inheritance , and now he is district attorney . congratulations ! all shiny and redeemed . your once - dingy reputations are now whitewashed . but i wonder if it 's only skin - deep . i think that you and scott baldwin are still the lying cheats you always were . lucy : there is no `` me and scott baldwin . `` it is me and kevin , and we are married , happily , thank you very much ! tracy : uh - huh . lucy : no , no , you do n't get to do that -- [ cell phone rings ] lucy : oh , my god . hello ? oh , thank god . right . right . okay . okay . anna , thank you . thank you very , very much . we 'll be there . they found them . they 've got luke , they 've got scott . they 're taking them to general hospital . tracy : oh , my god . let 's go . i 'll call lulu on the way . no , i 'll drive . lucy : i 'll drive . tracy : i 'm not getting in a car with you ! you 're too crazy ! do n't push me !

[ laughs ] dante : do you want to share ? sabrina : this is awkward . britt : yeah , i could n't agree more , but dr. chu was unavailable , and i agreed to take her appointments , so ... we 're stuck . sabrina : well , i guess if i can deliver your baby , you can scan mine . britt : wow . this is really happening . you 're having patrick 's baby . sabrina : if you think that i 'm gon na try to use this baby to win him back , you 're wrong . that 's not my style . britt : well , okay . i suppose i deserve that . and i certainly did everything i could to come between the two of you . sabrina : [ scoffs ] that 's one way to put it . britt : i saw the connection that you and patrick ... had right from the beginning . it was exactly the same connection i wanted to have with someone . i thought if i could manipulate the situation , i could get him for myself . clearly , i had a lot to learn about love . uh , what i 'm trying to say is that ... i 'm sorry . i hope you accept my apology . nikolas : i know you do n't approve of britt , and that 's you 're right -- elizabeth : this is n't about whether i approve of britt or not . she 's hurt a lot of people i care about . nikolas : yeah , well , we 've all hurt people that we care about . we 've all done things that we regret . elizabeth : you 're right , you 're right . none of us are perfect . i 'm not here to judge britt . in fact , this is n't about her at all . it 's about you . nikolas : about me ? elizabeth : yes . the reason i do n't want you to marry her ... i 'm in love with you . nikolas : what did you just say to me ? elizabeth : i 'm in love with you . i 've been trying to deny it for months , and when you came back to port charles and told me you still loved me , i was -- i was so afraid because -- nikolas : liz , you -- you -- you rejected me . remember ? you chose a.j . elizabeth : i was afraid because we hurt so many people the first time we were together . i did n't want to make those same mistakes . i did n't want to reopen old wounds . nikolas : i do n't e -- what -- what changed , then ? elizabeth : i thought a.j . and i could help each other start over . i was wrong . and i know i was n't fair to him , because when i chose him , i was still in love with you . nikolas : but , see , you did n't -- you did n't tell me that ! elizabeth : but do n't you understand ? i was trying to do the right thing , and i did the wrong thing , of course . and now you 're engaged , and you 're about to start a whole new life with someone else . and maybe i should 've stayed silent , but for once , i had to do what was right . i had to tell you ... that i love you ... before it 's too late . britt : even if you do n't believe me , i -- i truly am sorry . sabrina : i do believe you . anyway , it 's all in the past now , you know ? britt ... of course i accept your apology . britt : thank you . so ... you ready to look at the baby ? sabrina : yeah . [ both laugh ] [ heart beating ] britt : oh . the baby is looking good . sabrina : [ chuckles ] britt : heart beat 's strong . do you want to know the sex ? sabrina : um , yeah , i do . i just , um ... not this time . i think patrick should probably be here for that . britt : okay . i understand . it 's a major revelation . the father should be here to share it . sabrina : you know , people keep asking me if i have a feeling , you know , one way or the other what the sex is , and ... honestly , i do n't . did you ? britt : i do n't remember . i mean , i just -- i love ben so much . not that i would n't love a girl , but he 's just such a character . he sings to himself to put himself to sleep . and it 's like this little hum . and i hear it on the baby monitor , and ... i do n't know . it 's -- it 's dumb . sabrina : no . [ chuckles ] no , it 's not . britt : i just did n't expect to feel this way . i mean , let 's face it -- i got pregnant as a way to hold on to patrick . but now ... being ben 's mother , it 's changed my whole life . it 's like you have this little child , and you have all this love for him . i just -- i would never want anything to come between us . lulu : oh , my god , tracy , i 'll be right there . thank you for calling . they found my father . dante : they did ? that 's great . where ? lulu : heather had him locked up at miscavige , with -- are you ready for this ? -- with scott baldwin . they 're bringing him to g.h . right now . dante : okay , i 'll go with you . lulu : no , no . you should stay here with ben . dante : i can bring him . he 's portable . lulu : you guys are just getting to know each other , and i can handle this on my own . dante : you sure ? lulu : yeah , it 'll be better . i can focus all of my attention on my dad . i have no idea what heather did to him , but the fact that they 're taking him to the hospital means someone thinks that he needs to be seen by a doctor , and the fact that he is going along with it and not refusing ... worries me . dante : okay . well , uh ... we 're here . you know where to find us . lulu : i know . in the meantime , i will spend time with my father while you spend time with your son .

'cause if it had been left up to me , i would 've left you two big babies in those straitjackets and saved ourselves a whole lot of trouble . scott : thank you , commissioner . and i 'm sorry about that crack of your head on a stick . anna : yeah . you 're welcome . so , i need these two gentlemen to be checked out thoroughly . do you understand ? scott : listen , i -- i need a shower , and i need a phone . epiphany : oh , lord , save us . anna : no , no . scott : i 'm the district attorney . i got to get back to work . anna : you need to be examined . epiphany : they will be examined , from head to toe . scott : well , the important thing is that franco and carly are safe , and i need to see them . anna : yeah . you will . after your exam . lucy : [ gasps ] you 're safe . you -- oh ! you 're safe . i was so worried about you ! but i did n't even know i was supposed to be worried until today , and if i had n't been , i would 've known to come get you . i would 've rescued you . thank god you got out of that god - awful place . scott : well , it 's -- yes . yes , that 's good -- good to know . tracy : how could you let yourself be kidnapped by heather webber again ? anna : tracy , he 's not in very -- tracy : i send you to do one small chore -- get rid of a raccoon in the boathouse -- and you go missing for weeks . and when i try to report you missing , everybody ignores me . because everyone is so used to you taking off on a moment 's notice , they do n't even notice when you 're gone . you are so damn lucky that i took the time to miss you . anna : you know , he 's been through such a big ordeal -- tracy : and you know how i knew you were in trouble ? because my bank accounts were intact . you did not embezzle a dime . how sad is that ? i knew you were in trouble because you did n't steal anything from me . what do you have to say for yourself ? luke : hello , tracy . tracy : [ laughs ] hello ? what 's wrong with you ? scott : who knows ? he was drugged when i found him in the insane asylum . anna : yeah . tracy : drugged ? anna : mm - hmm . miscavige is a mental hospital , after all . you understand that . tracy : epiphany , call a doctor . luke 's been drugged . patrick : how dare you threaten robin and make her choose between her friend and her family . victor : oh , dear . that 's not what is going on here . i would never threaten an american citizen . patrick : you threatened jason morgan . victor : in point of fact , i 've been keeping jason morgan alive . and now i 'm giving your wife the opportunity . the wsb requires her help . but as a private citizen , we can not force her to help us . no , we 're trying to make it as attractive as possible . patrick : and if she says no ? what if she goes public with the offer ? what happens ? victor : well , unfortunately , doctors with these types of skill are -- are very short supply . i do n't know if you know this , dr. drake , but your wife is one in a million . if she does n't help us , then i 'm out of options . so , there we are . she stays here , tucked in with you and your daughter , and jason morgan dies . or she comes with me as agreed . but in no way am i implying that this is a contractual obligation . no , no , no . this is all done in good faith . it 's really up to her . patrick : get out of my house . victor : of course . excuse me . oh , robin , my plane leaves tomorrow from port charles . i do hope you 'll be on it . robin : feels like i just made a deal with the devil . patrick : this does n't have to end this way , robin . nothing is set in stone yet . robin : patrick , you heard him . if i do n't go , jason dies . patrick : jason risked his life every single day , okay ? you do n't have to go and save him . robin : we already had this fight . i 'm not doing it again . patrick : so what do you want me to do ? you want me to just ... wave as the plane takes off , leaving us behind ? robin : i do n't know . i 'm not telling you what to do . you 're the one that 's telling me . and you 're just not gon na change my mind . and you wo n't change what jason did for me and how much he means to me , and ... why i have to do this . robin : what he did for you , years ago ... before you met me , before we had emma . you barely even saw the guy the last few years . robin : it does n't matter . if i had n't spoken to jason in 10 years , i would still do that because he would come after me . he would come get me . and i 'm going to get him . patrick : well ... robin : patrick , i love you . and i love our daughter . and believe me , i want to stay home . but i ca n't let jason die . when that plane leaves tomorrow , i 'm going to be on it . britt : well , the baby is , um ... right where the baby wants to be . uh , you are due back in a month . i can schedule the appointment for you right now , if you like . sabrina : oh , yeah , sure . britt : how are your wednesdays ?

[ scene_break ] luke : you believe me ? tracy : i do . luke : [ exhales sharply ] thank you . i do n't know why you would believe me , because i have trouble believing , because it 's ... crazy . tracy : helena cassadine tells a similar story . luke : hel -- helena ? what has she got to do with this ? tracy : you do n't remember ? luke : uh ... she -- she came to visit me in miscavige . she came into my cell . maybe that 's it . maybe she did something to me . tracy : no , no . she did n't do anything to you , luke . you 've been working with her .

[ scene_break ] patrick : i have no idea what the device did or what effect it had on jake 's behavior , but i was able to remove it and patch him up . sam : good . i mean , that 's all jake wanted was to be free of helena 's control . carly : he was fighting her the whole time , and he did n't even know he was doing it . i mean , trying to make sense of those memory flashes ? jake was literally terrified of himself , of what he might do , what he might have done , and -- and he had no control over it . and i turned him in to the cops . sam : well , i mean , i think it 's a good thing you did because maybe he would never have confronted this . we would 've never known that there was a bomb on the boat . carly : i know . i know . i know you 're right . i just -- i just ca n't ... i hate the fact that he was arrested , and -- and that someone 's going to hold him responsible . and most of all , i hate that jake might hold himself responsible . sam : yeah . look , i know . i put a lot of energy into hating him , too , but , really , that guy is just ... i mean , he 's a lost soul . patrick : might not be so lost , actually . according to elizabeth . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what a relief to hear helena will soon be out of port charles . helena : oh , i assure you , i never remain in this dreary place longer than necessary . elizabeth : and it was necessary to be here to torture jake , to force him to do your bidding ? nikolas : elizabeth , i hope you know how sorry i am for all of this . and i know it wo n't make up for what jake has suffered , but i 'd like to cover his medical expenses . elizabeth : you do n't have to do that . nikolas : i insist . my family has put that man through hell . and from what i understand , he does n't have access to insurance because he does n't know who he is . elizabeth : that might not be the case anymore . [ scene_break ] luke : tracy , she 's lying . when it comes to the cassadines , you have to trust me . helena is capable of anything . she -- she may have done some mind control on me . tracy : luke , she did n't do anything to you except take advantage of your mental state . luke : whatever is going on in my head , i would never throw in with the dragon lady . tracy : luke , we have not begun to scratch the surface of what 's wrong with you , but you 're clearly not in control of yourself . luke : well , that 's my point . she 's done something to me ! tracy : luke , listen to me . i spoke to your other side . and based on what helena and you have both said ... we believe it has something to do with ... what happened when you were growing up . luke : well -- no , no . good lo -- she 's lying . you ca n't believe her . s - she 's lying . tracy : i believe her . i believe helena cassadine . luke , something ... terrible happened to you in that house where you were growing up . tell me what it was . tell me what happened to you . luke , whatever happened to you in that house , you can tell me -- no matter how awful . luke : [ chuckles ] i would n't -- i would n't know where to begin . growing up with tim spencer as a father was hardly christmas with the osmonds . tracy : you never talk about your childhood . something ... must have happened . luke : no , i really do n't know what you 're talking about . tracy : well , maybe you 've blocked it because you -- you do n't want to remember something about your parents or your sister bobbie or pat or bill eckert . luke : stop ! no more . tracy : luke ? luke : you mind your own business , you miserable bitch . [ scene_break ] ned : alexis , i can certainly understand your suspicions . alexis : oh , come on . can we just be adults about this ? everybody knows what 's going on . we all know that olivia slept with julian . olivia : okay . it was a regrettable night of mutual bad decision - making . alexis : fine . but the point is , you 're pregnant . i understand that you do n't want the father to be julian , but that does n't change the fact that julian is the father and that ned is covering for you . ned : now , see , that 's not what 's going on here . alexis : really ? ned : really ! i would have to be a complete idiot to make up the same story twice . olivia : especially with alexis so involved . ned : exactly . julian : ted , since i 've yet to underestimate your intelligence , i think alexis may be onto something here . ned : you can take as many shots at me as you want . it does n't change the facts . julian : let 's just say i 'm willing to believe you . when exactly did you conceive this baby , there , ted ? alexis : when exactly was this baby conceived ? because we broke up like , what -- five minutes ago ? and we 've been dating for the better part of six months , and olivia 's not that far along . olivia : not quite . alexis : which begs the question -- exactly when did you cheat on me ?

[ scene_break ] lulu : spinelli has feelings for you ? maxie : yeah , like , um , romantic , `` let 's be a couple and parents to our child `` type of feelings . lulu : that 's unexpected . maxie : mm . how do you think i felt ? i finally started to get my life together . i 'm allowed to see georgie , and spinelli and his `` adorkable `` crush are supposed to be living happily ever after . lulu : well , no disrespect to spinelli , but just because he 's had a change of heart does n't mean that you have to change yours . did you make it clear to him that you 're with nathan now ? maxie : yeah , i did . except now i do n't know where i stand with nathan . [ scene_break ] sam : what does elizabeth have to do with this ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i was with jake as he was going under the anesthesia . he told me something .

[ scene_break ] ned : alexis ... i 'm sorry . alexis : not looking for an apology , ned . just trying to nail down those dates . ned : i do n't want to hurt you . alexis : little late for that . so , when exactly did this dalliance occur ? ned : well , it was actually more than just a dalliance . alexis : when and where ? ned : okay . if you insist . it was a while ago , obviously . olivia and i had been spending some -- julian : you know , i want to know what olivia has to say . olivia : me ? julian : yeah . we know when you and i got together . new year 's eve . so , when exactly did you and old ted hit the sheets ? olivia : i - i do n't want to cause any problems here . alexis : well , a little late for that . olivia : well , is n't it kind of obvious , alexis ? it was right after you rescued luke from miscavige . you came to the quartermaines . you were defending julian , as usual . ned was defending his father , and you got all huffy , and you stormed out . alexis : that was thanksgiving . you 're three months already ? olivia : i 'm not saying that . ned : by the time you and i got back together , it was almost christmas , so it was during those few weeks . and olivia and i were spending a lot of time together . olivia : yeah . ned : one thing led to another . olivia : you actually walked in on us . ned : she did ? n - not actually on us , you know , but right after . alexis : when was that ? olivia : it was at the quartermaines the night that you guys made up . alexis : oh ! i 'm sorry . i - i did n't mean to scare you . am i interrupting something ? i remember that . it 's when you both had the silly glasses on and were watching the silly movie . olivia : it 's actually a modern classic -- pioneering work in the genre . ned : we were talking about what had just happened . olivia : y - yes . i mean , between us , not in the movie . ned : we were about to discuss where we wanted to take our mutual attraction , and you walked in and apologized to me . alexis : and you did n't think it was a good idea to tell me that you had just had sex with someone ? ned : i did n't want to hurt you , so i did n't say anything . instead , i ended up hurting olivia . why else do you think she was so rude to you at the metro court that day ? olivia : when was i rude to anyone at the metro court ? ned : that comment about the cold feet . olivia : right , right , right . yes ! exactly . i had slept with your boyfriend , and so i felt rejected , and i took it out on you . alexis : you cheated on me . ned : well , technically , since we were estranged , it was n't really cheating . but , yes , i slept with olivia before you and i had a chance to sort things out , and for that , i apologize . i did n't mean to hurt you , but i obviously did . i should 've just been honest from the very beginning . that way , you and julian could 've ridden off into the sunset , and olivia and i could 've avoided this interrogation about something that 's really a private matter . julian : okay . alexis , are you believing this story ? alexis : i mean , do i believe that he would sneak around behind my back and have sex and lie to me and make me feel guilty when he was the one who was really cheating ? yeah , sure , i believe that . [ slaps counter ] you 're a smarmy son of a bitch .

[ scene_break ] greg : what can i do for you , mr. corinthos ? sonny : i need another background check on ric lansing . greg : that first dossier was pretty thorough . sonny : yeah , but not thorough enough to reveal his ties with alcazar . greg : yeah , that information was buried pretty deep . sonny : okay , my point exactly . there was a reason for that , just like there 's a reason that ric lansing is plastered all over my life all of a sudden . i want you to find out what he wants and what he 's planning to do . greg : well , i do n't know that i could discern his motives through a simple background check . sonny : okay , you know what ? leave the discerning to me . all i want you to do is find out everything you can about him -- where he was born , who his parents were , who he slept with in college , and how he ended up with alcazar . but , most important , where and when his life intersected with mine . [ scene_break ] ric : so , that 's it . look , there 's a precedence for it . you know , luke operated some games out of his backroom . his place turned quite a profit . carly : a game room ? ric : yeah . sure . look , it 's just another way for your customers to spend money . carly : i 'll think about it . ric : yeah . listen , thanks for going to bat for me before . carly : yeah , for the good it did . ric : yeah , it 's all right . sonny -- sonny 's going to realize that i do n't scare away so easily . i 'll just hang out . who knows ? something may happen to change his mind . carly : i would n't count on it . ric : yeah , you forget i got a secret weapon . carly : really ? what 's that ? me ? no , ric . i know when to back off my husband . i can not help you with this . ric : oh , sure , you can , carly . especially considering the circumstances . carly : are you threatening to blackmail me ? ric : just sit down and relax , okay ? do n't draw attention to yourself . sit down . [ scene_break ] greg : if you do n't mind me asking , sir -- if you 're so suspicious of ric lansing , why is he still around ? sonny : well , he would n't be if he had n't come forward with the information to get jason and brenda acquitted . besides , he 's working with my wife . it gives me the opportunity to keep him close just in case , you know , something happens , and i need to figure out what he 's after and what he 's capable of doing to get it . [ scene_break ] ric : i think you misunderstood . carly : no , i do n't think so . i 'm very good at reading between the lines . ric : mm - hmm . carly : and what i heard you say was , `` either convince sonny to give me a job , or -- or i 'm going to tell him that we slept together . `` ric : see , carly , you 're thinking of this in the wrong way . this is n't blackmail . okay ? this is a favor that you 're doing for a friend . and in exchange , we 're just keeping a little secret . come on , carly , it 's nothing evil that you 're doing here , and in return , you 're getting something that 'll benefit you , as well . all due modesty aside , i 'm very good at what i do . as a matter of fact , people have said that i am the best at what i do . carly : oh , well , excuse me for not being impressed , but i heard that for years from alexis . ric : well , sure . but sonny still needs an attorney , a capable one that can keep him out of trouble . now , i would think , as his wife , that 's worth the extra effort , you know , considering the fact that you guys are doing so well and brenda 's out of town now . carly : when are you going to realize that if sonny finds out what happened in that motel , you are not going to need a job , all you 're going to need is a casket ? ric : oh , good . then we both have reasons to make sure that he does n't find out . now , the way i would configure this backroom is very simple .

[ scene_break ] lulu : i mean , it 's not like i 'd blame brenda for having second thoughts , because sonny does n't exactly have a great track record with weddings and wives . spinelli : uh , i mean , for a relationship to be successful , each party has to trust the other implicitly . i mean , who knows what secrets the bride and groom may be keeping ? lulu : yeah , well , sonny 's a mobster . secrets are part of the deal . maybe brenda realized that she could n't handle that . has she been acting weird ? spinelli : uh , you know , i 've been too preoccupied with my own pet project , uh , an intriguing look into the workings of a detective agency run by a suave sleuth . lulu : oh . okay , well , maybe you can use your p.i . skills to find out what made brenda change her mind . [ scene_break ] alexis : you 're showing an amazing amount of restraint . i 'd think you 'd be doing a jig in the aisle now , hoping that brenda stood up sonny . jax : well , i would love nothing more than to think that brenda had a moment of clarity and thought about all the reasons why marrying sonny would be an absolute disaster , but there 's still a chance that she 's going to walk down the aisle . [ scene_break ] steve : well , sonny seems to be taking this all in stride . at what point do you think he should be getting nervous ? olivia : i do n't know . sonny does n't think like that . patrick : well , maybe he should start . we 've been sitting here for a while . the only thing that 's happened is robin came in to get edward . that ca n't be a good sign . olivia : well , in my experience , sonny knows exactly what he wants and he knows how to get it . [ scene_break ] luke : carly 's a determined woman . are you sure she has n't given those dim wits the slip ? sonny : i would have heard about it by now . luke : i do n't know . maybe not . it 's a tough job market out there for buffy boys in bad suits . maybe they 're trying to wait to sound the alarm until they 've done damage control ? sonny : this has to be about jason , because he was supposed to walk brenda down the aisle . so if he 's not here , he might have some news about the balkan . luke : look , i 'm not one to support anything my niece does , but you sure there is n't some legitimate reason she does n't want this wedding to go forth ? sonny : are you serious ? luke : i 'm just putting it out there . there 's a lull in the action . sonny : you know , at this point , i really do n't care what carly thinks . because nothing 's going to stop this wedding .

[ scene_break ] carly : so you claim to have this big , scary love for sonny ? let me tell you what i know . love 's sacrifice . so if what you and sonny have is real , you 'll walk away . and leave sonny with his precious illusion of you and dante . i mean , it would be better for sonny to suffer a small heartbreak with you leaving than to find out that you had a kid with dante . brenda : did you sleep with your mother 's husband ? and lie about who michael 's father was to about a million different men ? and now you 're trying to make sonny unhappy . and we all know why , carly . we all understand what 's happening here because carly needs to be front and center at all times in sonny 's life . right ? and that is why your marriage with jax never had a chance . [ orchestra playing `` the four seasons `` ] carly : there 's your cue . so you can walk outside and get in the limo i have waiting for you , or you can walk down the aisle . but if you do that , the whole world 's going to know about this . so what 's it going to be ? [ scene_break ] ethan : hey , i saw the conference in the corner . does sonny have any idea what 's keeping the bride ? luke : could be any number of reasons . tracy : ha . any of them involve bullets ? ethan : [ chuckles ] i guess kristina neglected to mention i 'd need my kevlar for this evening 's festivities . luke : just keep your head down , you 'll be fine . i 'm not sure about everybody else , though . [ scene_break ] spinelli : whew . lulu : are you okay ? spinelli : oh , um , the jackal 's pallor is due in large part to the extensive amount of internet scouring he does during peak daylight hours . pasty white complexion is the price you pay for cyber dominance . lulu : you 're very sweaty . spinelli : oh , well , the jackal has a condition called hyperhidrosis . it 's very common among adolescents -- lulu : are you worried about brenda ? did she get threatened by the balkan ? spinelli : there are potential other obstacles to the nuptials . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : the music changed . maybe that 's some tactful way to tell brenda to hurry up because we 're all waiting . nikolas : well , clearly it 's not effective . brook lynn : maybe i should go see what 's going on . i might be able to help , so . sonny : go ahead and sit down . i 'll take care of it . we 're going to start in a few minutes . i appreciate your patience . [ music stops ] sonny : what 's going on ? dante : no one 's heard from jason . robin is trying to buy some time before she broke the news to brenda . robin : i was trying to convince edward to walk brenda down the aisle , but he 's flat - out refusing . edward : see , i have certain principles . i refuse to be a party to marrying someone off to a mobster . sonny : but you 'll sit in there , right , and watch us say our vows ? that 's not hypocritical ? edward : oh , i 'd be more of a hypocrite if i married her off to you knowing that she could do much better . sonny : yeah , could we not do this right now , edward ? please ? my daughter 's right here . edward : i talked with her earlier , and if in the future , god forbid , she should attempt to marry a blackguard like you , you 'd see to it that the man disappeared that day . robin : edward , of course you 're entitled to your opinion , but whatever you may think , brenda and sonny are getting married today . edward : oh , god . sonny : okay , i 'm out of here . robin : oh , wait , where are you going ? sonny : i 'm just going to get brenda , because we have to do this now ! kristina : no , you ca n't see the bride before the wedding ! it 's bad luck . molly : kristina 's right . you and brenda have overcome so many obstacles to get here , so why jinx it now ? robin : and brenda would n't want you to see the wedding dress until she 's walking down the aisle . edward : talk about bad luck . it could n't get any worse than the fact that this travesty is actually going to happen . brenda : hi . [ scene_break ] lisa : do n't you think you 've had enough ? johnny : you 're not here to baby - sit me . lisa : okay , well , i do n't have time for games , so will you tell me what you want ? johnny : you can start by taking off your clothes . lisa : go to hell . johnny : you want me to keep your secret , you 're going to have to find a way to make me happy . lisa : okay , you know what , you only have a syringe . you could have gotten it from anywhere and you have no proof that i was going to use it on robin . johnny : okay , fine , walk out . my next call will be to patrick . confirm what he already suspects . you know , he 's been looking for any excuse to make you the villain . i call patrick and it 'll kill any chance you ever had of being with the guy . patrick will be done with you . johnny : you 'd do it , would n't you ? wow . you really are just like my sister . [ scene_break ] lucky : after the balkan 's men grabbed you , do you remember them saying anything specific ? megan : only to keep my mouth shut . or they 'd cut out my tongue so i could n't scream for help . lucky : i know this is n't easy . but you may have the key to catching this bastard . megan : all i remember is being terrified . siobhan : take your time . no detail is too small . lucky : when the balkan 's men were speaking to each other , was it in english ? megan : mostly . some of them had accents , so certain words were harder to understand than others . lucky : did you ever hear them call each other by name ? megan : not in front of me . lucky : and what about the balkan ? did you ever speak to him in person ? megan : as far as i know , neither did his men . they 'd sit around waiting for the balkan to phone with instructions . he did n't much like it when they called him . lucky : the guards told you that ? megan : they did n't have to . i heard the balkan yell at one of his men for interrupting his time with his wife . lucky : the balkan has a wife ? [ scene_break ] tracy : daddy . edward : hmm ? tracy : what did robin want ? edward : for me to compromise my principles . but i stood firm . wish i could say the same for brenda . ethan : cheer up , mate . there 's an open bar at the reception . edward : there is n't enough scotch in all the world to avoid this disaster . we might just as well be passengers on the titanic . luke : titanic had a better band . [ tracy laughs ] [ classical music playing ] lulu : well , it seems all that worrying was for nothing . looks like the wedding 's going to happen . sonny : so here 's what 's going on . i apologize for the delay again . but a member of the wedding party did n't show up . so we decided to start the ceremony without him .

[ scene_break ] johnny : get dressed . lisa : okay , what the hell is going on with you ? first you tell me to get undressed and now you 're telling me to basically leave as quickly as possible . how am i supposed to give you what you want when you do n't even know ? johnny : i know i do n't want to be anything like sonny . lisa : then you should probably find a different line of work . johnny : this is n't a joke , lisa . this road that you 're traveling down with patrick , same road my sister traveled down with sonny . i stood by for months and watched as claudia degraded herself by chasing after a man who despised her until it eventually drove her insane . she would have done anything for sonny 's affection and his love . and she did . she let sonny 's brother blackmail her into sleeping with him , and she followed through with it , just like you were about to do with me . lisa : well , you did n't give me much choice . johnny : how about the choice of respecting yourself , huh ? and finding a man who will do the same . but it ai n't gon na be patrick . it never will be . lisa : you do n't know patrick the way i do . johnny : i know he loves robin . come on , lisa , you are a beautiful , smart , strong woman , just like claudia . who could have been anything and done anything . and she threw it all away to be with sonny . the guy treated her like dirt , used her up and eventually destroyed her . now he 's marrying some supermodel and she 's rotting away in the ground . do n't you see ? that 's exactly what 's waiting for you . [ scene_break ] siobhan : are you certain ? the balkan has a wife ? megan : as certain as i 'm sitting here . lucky : okay , i need to know everything that was said . megan : the man guarding me was falling over himself to apologize . he said he was sorry for interrupting him , that he did n't know the balkan was with his wife . does that help ? lucky : well , it means the balkan has a weak spot . siobhan : well , it gives us a whole new way to go about finding him . lucky : okay , first , we need to get you out of here . i booked you on an 8 : 00 flight to barcelona . megan : i want you to come with me . siobhan : i ca n't leave lucky . megan : you just got through telling me he made you a target . one of these days , lucky 's going to get you into a mess he ca n't save you from . you have to come with me now before it 's too late . lucky : your sister 's right .

'cause i have very limited experience in this area , you know ? after what happened to nina and losing her , i - i stayed away from anything serious . kiki : until sam . silas : until sam , and i almost ruined that . i mean , i neglected to tell sam that , technically , i 've been married for the past 20 years . kiki : but it 's not like you were cheating with sam . your wife is in a comma . silas : no , but it -- it 's still a lie , like the one you told michael . you know , and i , for one , feel terrible about that . kiki : oh , well , i do n't . silas : okay , then . kiki : well , i had every right to lie . i had to . i had to in order to protect franco and to cover for him . silas : no , but you see , i do n't think michael sees it that way . i would guess that he more looks at it as a - a breach of trust , like sam did . kiki : so , what am i supposed to do ? silas : you need to get michael to trust you again , all right ? i mean , sam was good enough to forgive me , and now we have a second chance at something . i 'm sure if you reach out to michael , he 'll forgive you , too . kiki : forgive me ? silas : yeah . kiki : michael should be the one begging me to forgive him . sam : you know about my brother danny ? julian : well , you are my daughter . i 've made it a point to learn as much as i can about you . sam , i found out what you did for your brother danny , the tough choices you had to make to protect him , and i guess some of your actions were , uh ... sam : criminal . is that what you 're gon na say ? yeah . maybe -- maybe they were , but i did what i had to do . julian : sam , i understand . more than you know , actually . your adoptive father -- he taught you to be a con artist , to break the law . the thing is , sam , my father -- he -- he taught me to do the same thing . so , we 're really not that different . when you think about it , you know , we actually have a -- have a lot in common . sam : okay . julian : my point is lucas has agreed to give me half a chance . i was hoping that his thaw might inspire you to ... do the same thing . alexis : where are you going ? molly : carson 's . we 're studying for the sats . the scores we get this spring will be the ones we use for the college apps next year . alexis : oh ... all right . listen . i have an idea . why do n't you invite carson over here ? molly : well , i mean , now that danny 's spending the night , you know we would n't be able to resist playing with him . alexis : yeah , i know . he does have a powerful pull , does n't he ? molly : yes , he does . alexis : yeah , well , we understand . we do . but we 'll miss you . and i 'm very proud of you . olivia : so ... tj : so ... olivia : what 's with the hotel room ? tj : um , you know , shawn 's having a girl over tonight -- you know , wine , flowers , the works . olivia : mm . tj : so , he wanted the place to himself . olivia : mm - hmm . tj : you know , i could have gone , uh , to the library and waited it out , but who knows , when that closes , if i would have been barging in on anything , so ... olivia : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . i get it , i get it , i get it . tj : you get it . right .
