[ scene_break ] sam : just because jason was married to brenda for a few months a long time ago does n't mean that he has to take care of her forever . i 'm just kinda curious why you 're not taking care of her . suzanne : brenda listed jason as her next of kin and her emergency contact . all i did was pick up the phone . maybe you should ask jason why he was on the next plane to rome and taking over her life . [ scene_break ] candy : well , shall we give it a try ? michael : i 'm warning you i am really bad . candy : you 're doin ' great . how 's that ? michael : it 's okay . singer : and somehow when it all feels lost , we 'll find a way to carry on , on again candy : see ? that was n't so bad . singer : so wipe away the tears of the day and lie awake till it 's light michael : get off me ! singer : all we need is time michael : i 'm so sorry . i did n't mean to . are you okay ? or -- stupid question . of course you 're not okay . why would you be ? candy : it 's not your fault . okay ? i was moving too fast . i 'm sorry . michael : you 're apologizing to me ? that 's crazy . candy : you are a great guy . really . okay , i was trying to make this nice for you . just come sit with me . it 's okay . michael : i did n't mean to hurt you . i 'm sorry . candy : you did n't hurt me . i 'm fine . so come sit . we can talk some more . michael : no . this is n't gon na work [ scene_break ] olivia : 2 beers . thanks . coleman : would you like some cheese fries with those ? brook lynn : nah . i already ate . but thank you . yeah , and the food was way better than the conversation . heh heh heh heh . nikolas : like i said , the first thing she told me was , `` take me to jake 's . `` you should feel flattered . coleman : ooh . you 're welcome here anytime , sweetheart . brook lynn : thank you . all right , mister . nikolas : all right . brook lynn : i would like to thank you for your generosity . nikolas : well , i certainly could n't have asked for a lovelier escort . brook lynn : thank you . well , i suppose that this is as good a time as any to hear about your new proposal . nikolas : okay . well , it 's more of the same , actually . the holidays are coming up , so the next few months will be filled with various social events , parties , charity things like that , and i 'll have to go to most of them , and i do n't wan na go alone . i want you to go with me . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] steve : everything all right ? olivia : well , looks like i just got stood up , which means we got an extra beer here . all yours if you want it . steve : so johnny 's loss is my gain , huh ? this is the first good thing that 's happened to me all day . [ bottles clink ] [ scene_break ] lulu : you think you can go back to sleep ? dante : you know , i do n't think i want to . why waste a golden opportunity ? lulu : are you suggesting here ? dante : well , i 've definitely had worse ideas . lulu : well , i would consider it if the blankets were n't the size of a handkerchief . dante : well , what happened to your spencer sense of adventure ? i mean , here we are at 30,000 feet . we have no phones , no text , no maxie barging in , no emergency calls from ronnie or kate , and i just want to , you know , hold you in my arms without anyone interrupting . lulu : are you sure you 're not changing the subject ? because if the balkan bothered you , you would talk to me about it , right ? dante : look , do you know what bothers me is we came all the way to ireland to be backup for lucky , and the car breaking down and interpol booting us out of the country , i did n't get the job done . lulu : well , you acquitted yourself pretty well . i guess i 'll have to keep you around . [ scene_break ] jason : everybody knows brenda 's a pain . sam : jason , doing your job is one thing . i totally get that . we 've already talked about it . but when this woman here is dismissing me from your office , i 've got a problem with that . suzanne : you wan na talk problems ? this is n't a simple threat . the balkan is an international crime figure . he 's a killer . i do n't think brenda deserves to die just because you do n't wan na share your boyfriend . [ scene_break ] michael : this is a bad idea . candy : i do n't agree . sam said that i would like you , and i do . michael : okay , you 're gon na have bruises . candy : you did n't do it on purpose . i should have gone slower . michael : it would n't have mattered . you just do n't understand . candy : i knew a guy once . i met him right after he got out of prison . he would n't talk about it much , but he said you survive however you can . he also said that when they set you free , you need to leave the cell behind . i mean , part of getting over it is letting yourself be happy again and doing things you enjoy , trying new adventures . i mean , i do n't wan na brag or anything , but he used to say that i healed him better than anything else . michael : look , i 'm sure you 're wonderful . candy : well , i was hoping that you would let me show you . i promise i 'll take it really slow . michael : no . i 'm -- you 're beautiful , and this is n't your fault . i 'm just a mess , and i thought i could handle this , but i ca n't . candy : you do n't have to do anything you do n't wan na do . michael : thing is what i want to , but -- look , i 'll pay you for your time . candy : no , do n't worry . there 's no money . michael : i 'm sorry . candy : do n't be . i can tell you 're uncomfortable , so i 'm gon na leave now . but if you change your mind , i 'd really love to see you again . just tell sam . she 'll find me . bye . [ scene_break ] suzanne : when i was a journalist , i wrote about things my publishers would n't print . they were too ugly for people to wan na read with their morning coffee . and besides , we all know the public is much more interested in the lives of celebrities . so when i started asec , i found someone who could give them a little sugar with their child prostitution and slave labor . brenda may be spoiled and headstrong , but she 's golden . sam : okay . that 's good . at least you admit you 're in it for the money . suzanne : you 're damn right i 'm in it for the money . brenda generates publicity , and that generates donations , and that makes a difference in the lives of thousands of children . i adore brenda . she 's an amazing woman , and , yes , she 's high - maintenance , but so what ? sam : so why are n't you the one who can keep her in line ? suzanne : i 'd love to , but these days , the only person who seems capable of keeping brenda in line is your fella . unless you 've decided she 's not worth the time and trouble . jason : i 'm not gon na let her die . sam : look , i get it . okay ? [ cell phone rings ] sam : excuse me . hello . what ? oh , no . all right . i 'll be right there . jason : no , what happened ? sam : it 's michael . jason : what are you saying ? sam : i do n't know . something -- i 'm gon na handle this , okay ? you stay here and handle -- i 'll call you . jason : okay , you call me . sam , you got ta call me . sam : i will call . suzanne : well , i do n't know who michael is , but that sure pushed your buttons . [ scene_break ] mac : you know , there is n't much that hurts more than watching your marriage shatter . take me and felicia . i could n't love a woman more than i loved her , but it was n't enough . i had to let her go . i survived . we both did . robin : but , uncle mac , this is different . patrick did n't abandon me . in fact , i abandoned him when i went to africa . mac : i do n't wan na listen to you blame yourself . robin : no , i 'm not doing that . i 'm just trying to understand my part in all this . you know , patrick stood by me when i had postpartum depression . i was irrational . i shut him out emotionally . i came pretty close to cheating on him . mac : you were recovering from an illness . patrick made a conscious choice to sleep with another woman . robin : and the minute he sobered up , he regretted it . mac : oh , so that 's the excuse , because he was drunk ? robin : no . he did n't make any excuses . and , you know , lisa , she pursued him relentlessly . every time she 'd rub up against him , she would remind him how he was in danger of becoming boring . and i tried to play that game . i tried to keep up , but i could n't . i would rather be at home with my family than at jake 's getting wasted , so sorry if that 's boring . mac : look , i 'm not gon na listen to you justify patrick cheating on you . robin : i 'm not . i 'm just trying to understand how all this happened . you know , i used to tell myself that cheating was a deal - breaker , that if he was unfaithful , i would kick him out on his ass , but i do n't know . i 'm just not sure . maybe it 's too soon to be calling divorce lawyers . [ scene_break ] patrick : this is on me . i might lose my family , and i got nobody to blame but myself . matt : okay , you 're owning it , right ? that 's a good first step . patrick : i need to get my wife 's trust back . that 's the most important thing . i 'll go to marriage counseling . i 'll do whatever it takes . matt : well , your problems are a lot worse than that , brother . patrick : if this is your idea of helping me , it needs a little work . matt : well , if you want me to call you a selfish jerk , i will . we can all join the pity party , but i promise you that 's not gon na get you what you want . which actually leads me to my next question . what do you want ? patrick : i wan na turn back the clock to the night i lost my mind and slept with lisa . that 's what i want . matt : well , what 's your second choice ? patrick : i want my wife to stop hurting because of what i did . i want my family back . i love my wife more than i think i realize , and i ca n't let her leave me . matt : all right , man . you need to just take a step back , and you need to breathe , because you ca n't force robin to be with you . you ca n't smother her , all right ? you need to just earn her trust back the way you did the first time , so go to couples therapy if you think that 's gon na help . yeah ? and go to individual therapy if you want . that 's fine , but my advice -- not that you asked for it -- the only way you 're gon na figure out what you really want is when you understand why you did what you did . [ scene_break ] jason : michael is my nephew . he 's 18 years old , and his parents and i made a lot of bad decisions for him . suzanne : young person in trouble , it breaks your heart , and it 's rarely of their own making . jason : he was exposed to a lot of violence , as you can imagine . and we did everything we could to protect him , but he still ended up in prison . suzanne : drugs ? jason : he killed somebody in self - defense . suzanne : taking a life changes a life . i saw that firsthand in the war with child soldiers -- children , innocent children brainwashed and trained to commit obscene , violent crimes . jason : yeah , i tried to protect him from violence , and then i had to teach him how to be violent . suzanne : well , at the risk of sounding like a pollyanna , there is hope . i 've seen people change . it 's not easy , takes a lot of patience and a lot of love to undo the damage , but i 'll bet if you 're willing to be constant with him and put in the time , you can probably help your nephew heal . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] sam : michael . what happened ? are you okay ? michael : did n't work out with your friend . i 'm sorry . sam : i do n't -- why are you sorry ? she called me . she said everything was great . michael : did she say how i embarrassed myself ? sam : no . she did n't say anything like that . michael : well , her real name 's abby . we talked . i mean really talked . i thought maybe it would work out , but i blew it . sam : what do you mean you blew it ? i 'm sure everything 's fine . you 're probably overreacting . michael : sam , you could n't possibly understand . [ scene_break ] dante : home . lulu : wow . bed . i could seriously sleep for a week . dante : i like the way you think . [ knock on door ] maxie : lulu , it 's maxie . let me in . i know you 're in there . dante : not her . no ! i got a gun . we 'll say it 's self - defense . it 's cool . [ baggage clatters ] [ lulu laughs ] maxie : hi . fashion never sleeps . we have work to do . lulu : i just got off a plane , so -- maxie : actually , according to your text message , you landed over an hour ago . i gave you 30 minutes to get home , but i thought i might find you here . sorry . i only brought coffee for lulu . dante : cool . so it looks like i 'm probably not gon na sleep , right ? maxie : probably not . i need you to focus , and he 's a distraction . dante : all right . well , what the hell . there 's probably nothing in the fridge , so i will go get us some takeout and bring us back some dinner . for 2 . maxie : subtle . see you later . lulu : okay . so what 's so important ? maxie : brenda barrett , the cover girl of kate 's dreams , and we 're gon na get her . [ scene_break ] [ laughter ] coleman : looks like cousin olivia just scored a new one . lucky s.o.b . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : well , thank you , but i just do n't think i wan na be a professional escort . nikolas : all right . well , we can call it something else if you 'd like . brook lynn : really ? nikolas : yeah . you could be like my assistant . you know , bodyguard ? brook lynn : better . nikolas : backgammon coach . any of those do it for you ? brook lynn : well , you know what they say . a rose by any other name ... nikolas : i know . i know . just do n't think of it as a career . okay ? just think of it as a short gig just for a few months and earn some money and turn your focus back onto your music , assuming that 's what you want . [ scene_break ] steve : lisa definitely had a thing for patrick . she pursued him relentlessly . did it turn into a dangerous obsession ? i do n't know . if yes , then shadybrook is exactly where she needs to be right now , but if not , she might be the victim here . just the rumor of being crazy is hard to bounce back from . olivia : i know . people get a lot of crazy ideas , and it can be really hard to shake . i mean , take john , for instance . everyone assumes that he 's reckless and , you know , self - destructive , and every now and then , he goes out , and he proves it . so ... steve : you think you can save him ? olivia : you think you can save lisa ? steve : no . and at the risk of being self - serving , let this be my teachable moment . or you can tell me to shove my wisdom . olivia : i would n't dream of it . dr. webber , one of these days , my life might be in your hands . [ both laugh ] kate : another notch on your belt , cuz . olivia : what 's it to you ? coleman , i think someone 's been overserved over here . kate : a word of advice . do n't let the bodywork fool you . olivia has a lot of miles on that chassis . olivia : you got exactly 2 choices here , con . you can either shut your freakin ' mouth , or you can get bitch - slapped into next tuesday . kate : oh . you know , it 's really embarrassing how you get knocked from guy to guy . olivia : look who 's talkin ' , con . you wan na talk embarrassing , wait 'll i knock you down on your fat ass . kate : do n't you threaten me . steve : let 's just chill . olivia : that was n't a threat ! that was a promise ! kate : what happened , olivia ? ! did your boy toy abandon you ? ! huh ? ! you lookin ' for a new man ? olivia : ha ha ! do n't worry , con . i 'm not interested in coleman , but i think we both know ... [ both yelling ] dante : all right , all right . kate : dante , stay out of this ! it 's between me and your mom . dante : ma , just -- olivia : you guys knock it off ! kate : cut it out ! steve : all right . dante : okay . hey , coleman , a little help here , buddy . steve : calm down . coleman : come here , wildcat . whoa ! whoa , baby ! whoa ! come on . come here . come here . it 's all right . dante : what the hell you doin ' , ma ? olivia : nothin ' . i 'm just fine . i 'm just teachin ' that self - righteous bitch a lesson ! kate : keep tryin ' . olivia : honey , i 'm so glad you 're home . ha ha ha ! [ scene_break ] maxie : what are you doing ? we have work to do . lulu : this whole brenda thing is a waste of time . jax already said he does n't want her on the cover . maxie : i think jax would love to have brenda on the cover . lulu : yeah , well , carly would never let it happen . maxie : okay , well , kate is the one who can make and break our careers , and i think she will be ecstatic if we can get brenda to do the cover . lulu : have you even spoken to brenda ? maxie : i thought maybe we could do that together . lulu : so we do n't even know if she would be interested . maxie : look , i 'm not exactly excited about this either , okay ? spinelli has developed this insane crush on brenda . he 's walking around calling her the divine one . if i got to choose , brenda would be doing catalog work for a discount chain or modeling snowsuits or maybe support bras and granny panties . but , look , brenda 's hot , kate wants her , so we have to get her . lulu : oh , is that all ? maxie : no ! look at this . every guy wants brenda barrett . every girl wants to be her . we have to deliver her to crimson . [ scene_break ] suzanne : who do i have to sleep with to get another glass of wine ? milo : that would be me . i mean , you do n't have to sleep with me . i mean , i have wine , but you do n't have to -- red or white ? suzanne : white . milo : white . okay . suzanne : and it was a joke . milo : okay . suzanne : max , may i ask you something ? max : sure . what do you need , ms. stanwyck ? suzanne : oh , please . it 's suzanne . is this the entire contact sheet for brenda barrett ? because if i do n't have the whole list , i am basically screwed . max : that 's the list jason gave me . suzanne : okay . and are you 2 fellas ready to keep my girl out of harm 's way ? max : yeah , we 'll do our best . we understand that ms. barrett can be a tough one to wrangle . suzanne : aw , max . i have a feeling you are a man with a gentle touch when it comes to handling difficult women . max : i do have a knack for handling difficult women . diane : oh , i did n't hear that . milo : ouble - tray . diane : ouble - tray ? seriously , milo ? pig latin ? really ? milo : yeah . max : um , diane miller , suzanne stanwyck . suzanne runs brenda barrett 's charity . diane : a.s.e.c . suzanne : yes . you 've heard about us , the work we do ? diane : well , all i know is that every time i turn around , i 'm getting a solicitation for another donation . must be very nice having someone like brenda barrett hitting up the rich and famous for your money . suzanne : well , you obviously do n't know what work we do or how a nonprofit works . diane : i know that i 've sued charities for accepting contributions that then go into the administrator 's pockets . suzanne : we have a 4-star rating . i take a nominal fee . 95 % of our monies go into program services . diane : really ? hmm . well , then tell me , who pays for brenda barrett 's security ? because it 's my understanding that she 's incredibly high maintenance , requires round - the - clock attention , and frankly , i do n't think the burden of brenda 's security should be shouldered by my two clients . suzanne : oh . and these 2 lovely gentlemen are your clients ? [ diane laughs ] diane : no , i was referring to jason morgan and sonny corinthos . suzanne : i do n't know where you got your information , but sonny corinthos does n't get anywhere near brenda barrett . [ scene_break ] jason : you do n't have to wait out here . michael : i do n't wan na see sam or brenda . jason : i think brenda 's sleeping , and sam said she was gon na see you , so come on . michael : sam tried to help me . it 's not her fault i 'm a train wreck . jason : what happened ? michael : sam found me this really great girl . she 's nice and beautiful , and i thought it was gon na work out , but i blew it . i do n't know what i 'm gon na do , man . michael : i ca n't . jason : there 's nothing you ca n't say to me , michael . i mean , it might help to just talk it through . michael : i was nervous , which is normal , right ? i mean , it 's my first time . i tried not to be too weirded out about it . jason : yeah . anybody would be nervous . michael : she tried to get me to relax . she asked me to dance . then we kissed , and that was okay . i mean , that was actually more than okay . but then she tried taking my shirt off , and i just lost it . for a split second , i was n't in the hotel room anymore . i was in prison with carter , and i wanted to kill him . i grabbed her arms really hard , and she tried to pretend that she was n't freaked out , but of course she had to be . how messed up is that that i ca n't even be with a girl ? jason : you ca n't be too hard on yourself . you know , a lot of that stuff you felt , nerves , it 's all normal . michael : no , it 's not . it 's not normal . i 'll never be normal . [ scene_break ] suzanne : i know women like you . i used to be like you . diane : except for the bad taste in shoes . suzanne : you do n't give a damn about justice , but you 're brilliant at manipulating the law . diane : i protect my clients ' rights . suzanne : yes , as long as they 'll pay top dollar for the privilege . diane : that 's what capitalism 's all about . suzanne : that 's what capitalism is about for the top 2 % who control the wealth . diane : the top 2 % who own the businesses , who create the jobs . suzanne : who pay the politicians to write those tax reforms and the loopholes in the laws so that the jobs can go overseas , where there are no laws . diane : free - market economy . suzanne : yes . you tell that to the 9-year - olds who work their fingers to the bone , literally , sewing and ironing and working on machines that cut off their limbs . it 's criminal . oh , but you do n't care about the people who are making your cheap goods , not as long as your clients can profit . diane : i notice how you have no trouble trotting out brenda barrett to dazzle those captains of industry so that they can pay for your little charity . suzanne : the difference between you and me , aside from the shoes , is that i retain my bank account and my humanity at the same time . diane : yeah , well , you can despise those criminals who hold the purse strings and run the world all you want , but now might be a good time to compromise , because sonny corinthos is all over your precious brenda like white on rice , and he is as criminal as they come . [ scene_break ] kate : i 'm fine ! olivia : so you wan na tell me why i had to hear from a total stranger that you left the country ? dante : who told you ? olivia : maxie . i mean , she 's not a total stranger , but i was worried when you did n't call . dante : well , lulu and i went to ireland to help lucky out with a project , and basically that was just an excuse for me to take my girlfriend on vacation . olivia : okay . honey , you know how much i love you and lulu as a couple , but you 're still my baby , and you could have given me a heads - up . dante : okay . next time . olivia : okay . dante : i 'm gon na get some takeout and go back to my girl , but could you try and keep the brawling to a minimum ? olivia : maybe so , maybe not . if connie looks at me wrong , all bets are off . yeah . i am so sorry that you had to witness that . steve : remind me never to get on your bad side . [ olivia laughs ] [ scene_break ] coleman : i tell you , i love it . when you get all bensonhurst on me . just next time , girl , maybe just give me a warning . i 'll get the mud - wrestling ring out . huh ? kate : why is it that family can make you madder than anyone , huh ? i left connie falconeri years ago , and yet 5 minutes with my cousin , and she comes roaring back .

[ glass shatters ] nina : you need to calm down , franco . franco : oh , no . do n't tell me to calm down ! do n't tell me that ! i was right ! i was right ! nina : okay , yeah -- you were right . franco : right is right ! nina : yes , you 're right . i know how you feel . it happened to me . but , trust me , you need to delete the app . franco : no , no , no . i love the app . the app is my best friend . the app is the only reason that i know that my fiancée is screwing her ex - husband behind my back ! sonny : you should n't feel guilty . carly : that 's easy for you to say . you 're not engaged . sonny : he 's not worth -- he 's not worth your time or your guilt . carly : we 're not having this conversation , sonny . sonny : we have not been having this conversation for months . carly : because i feel terrible . i do . i feel terrible . i feel guilty . i mean , i 'm lying to someone i love , and for what ? look at us ! we ca n't even keep our hands off each other in our son 's apartment . sonny : why is that ? because we belong together . if you would admit that , then you would see that this is the best thing that ever happened . carly : [ scoffs ] because we had enough manners not to do it in michael 's bed ? or , unlike your tryst with ava , we did n't screw on his father 's grave in the quartermaine crypt . elizabeth : okay . ahh . there was a ... car ? elizabeth : yes . yes . you were hit by a car . the driver called an ambulance , and they brought you here . here ? elizabeth : you 're at general hospital in port charles , new york . you did n't have any i.d . on you , so we have n't been able to call your family . you 've been unconscious for the past three days . you 've been a total mystery . can you tell me your name ? monica : jason died never knowing that danny was his son . but he loved that little boy like it was his own , regardless of dna . it 's the same way with me and jason . i did n't give birth to him , but i was his mother in every way that counted . if jason were here right now , i know he would be so grateful to you . because of you , he lives in that little boy . and the other good thing is that sam has found some happiness with you . silas : i 'm sorry . i guess you did n't hear . sam and i are no longer together . geert : i hope your work does n't keep you from enjoying amsterdam . patrick : do you mind taking our bags ? we 're just gon na check on a colleague that 's staying here . geert : you must be here for the graphic - design convention . patrick : here you go . geert : no problem , sir ! patrick : thank you . sam : okay . this is it . patrick : what are we waiting for ? sam : just ... prepare yourself . tracy : just put -- what are you two doing here ? ! tracy : excuse me ! i told you i could handle this on my own ! patrick : and i told you that if spencer was right and luke had anything to do with my son 's death that i was gon na be here for your little rendezvous . tracy : patrick , i am sympathetic -- i truly am -- but let 's not forget all of this is based on the word of a highly imaginative , disastrously precocious little boy . sam : no , and of a word of an undercover informant . tracy : why would i trust what a nameless , faceless person says ? ! sam : tracy , you know how serious these allegations are and what it means to patrick . we need to be here when this goes down . monica : i am so sorry . i had -- i had no idea that you two were n't seeing each other . silas : it 's okay . monica : well , for what it 's worth , i - i really wish you and sam all the happiness in the world , even if it is n't together . silas : thank you . monica : hey , listen -- have -- have you ever thought about , uh , putting yourself out there ? silas : um , i 'm sorry ? monica : well , you know , you 're -- you 're quite a catch . and i know you 're busy . i 'm busy , too , and that 's why this online dating service is so great . silas : oh , i really had n't considered -- monica : no , no . that it was your style ? i did n't , either , believe me , until two of my friends -- they pushed me into it , and i 've got to say i 'm going to dinner tonight with a very nice gentleman . silas : [ chuckles ] okay . monica : honestly , i never would have thought i would be in that situation . but all of a sudden , i got to thinking , `` gee , i could really , you know , play it safe . do n't take risks or chances , `` and that would be kind of a really boring life . so ... here i am . i am going on my first internet date . and what the hell ? if i can do it , you can do it . silas : well , that 's -- that 's a nice thought , but , uh ... monica : yeah . silas : ... i guess , in some way , i 'm -- i 'm already seeing someone -- my wife . nina : oh , my god . did she just say that ava jerome and sonny had sex on a.j . quartermaine 's grave ? franco : yes . nina : what a creepy slut . franco : worry about the slut on your time . i 'm more worried about my bride - to- be . sonny : i do n't need to be reminded that ava was the worst mistake i ever made , carly . carly : okay , i 'm sorry . that was unfair . sonny : you know how it went down -- how i let ava blindside me . i think about that every -- every -- every night that i got to live with that guilt ... for the rest of my life . i 'm the one -- i 'm the one who put a.j . in that grave . i 'm the one who took michael 's father from him when i shot the bastard . nina : sorry . what ? [ monitor beeping ] jason : my name ? uh ... my -- i do n't know . elizabeth : it 's okay . you 've been through a severe trauma . disorientation is completely normal . you just need to rest , and i 'm gon na get your doctor . i 'll be right back . i promise . maxie : well , you clean up nice . i 'm used to seeing you wear ... not much , actually . nathan : yeah . now you 're making me sound like an exhibitionist . maxie : i was not complaining . in fact , your nurses ' ball dance rehearsals were my favorite . nathan : [ sighs ] do n't remind me . maxie : [ chuckles ] i admire you for putting yourself out there for a worthy cause . nathan : i am definitely not a born dancer . maxie : you were n't bad . and it 's okay . you have a lot of other hidden talents , like you can make good quinoa and you can pick a lock with a paper clip . and you seem as much in your element here as you do at the floating rib . nathan : this is how i grew up . you know , the fancy clothes and elegant restaurants -- it was the reeves family way . now , granted , i have n't spent a lot of time in that world since i became a cop , but , you know , you can take the boy out of the upper east side ... maxie : but he 'll never forget how to wear a suit . that 's a good thing . sommelier : bonsoir . i will be your sommelier tonight . any thoughts on what you would like to drink ? nathan : may i ? maxie : knock yourself out . nathan : let me see . let 's , um -- let 's start with the bottle of the châteauneuf - du - pape -- the ' 07 . sommelier : oh . excellent choice . and excellent pronunciation . vouz parlez couramment en français ? nathan : pas assez bien , mais un peu . merci . sommelier : ah . bravo . nathan : what ? maxie : you 're just ... full of surprises , are n't you ? oh , yeah . you know what you 're doing . wow . i ca n't believe that we lived in the same apartment for months and i had no idea you were a wine connoisseur who is fluent in french . nathan : i 'm not fluent , at least not by french standards , but let 's just say i can hold my own . maxie : i bet . nathan : well , that 's the point of a date , though , right -- to get to know each other better ? i mean , you said you barely even know me , except i guess about my favorite color ... maxie : cerulean blue . nathan : ... which is not far off . but you also said that i do n't know myself well enough to open up to you , which is wrong , though . dna or no dna , i do know myself , and i want to share that with you . so ... where do you want to start ? maxie : i do n't know . um ... what 's your favorite book or movie or food ? nathan : the answer to all three is ... both : `` fried green tomatoes . `` maxie : oh , that 's a `` simpsons `` line . nathan : i love `` the simpsons . `` i used to watch it every day after school when i 'd do my homework . it used to drive my mother nuts . maxie : at least you would do your homework . i was a terrible student . all my high - school notebooks were filled with drawings and fashion designs . nathan : did you always know you wanted to get into fashion ? maxie : well , i knew i had a knack for it . nathan : yeah . you saw the high / low hemline coming before anybody else . maxie : i ca n't believe you remember me saying that . i think i was chained to a wall when that happened . nathan : which is exactly why i remember you saying it . it seemed a little odd at the time . anyways , you were telling me about your career in fashion . maxie : oh , right . um , well , i had sort of a good thing going at crimson before julian jerome bought it . he 's such a creep . but i do n't know , really , what my future holds . i do n't have , like , a clear path . nathan : that 's good , though . that means you 're open to all kinds of possibilities . maxie : yeah , maybe . what about you ? did you always know you wanted to be a cop ? nathan : i was , um -- i was 5 when nina went into a coma . madeline used to take me to the hospital to visit her all the time , and i would sit by her bed , and i promised her that i would find a way to make it right , which i could n't do , so i had to settle for finding justice , and that meant i had to become a cop so that i could investigate and i could find out who hurt her . maxie : and now that the truth is out and nina 's back ? nathan : do i still want to be a cop ? absolutely . i love my job . i respect the people i work with . dante and the commissioner -- i trust them , and that 's more than i could say about anybody in my family . and i want to help people . maxie : well , i think you 're good at it . nathan : thank you . maxie : and at the risk of sounding obvious , what i 'm learning about you tonight ... i like . nathan : me , too . nina : sonny corinthos just confessed to murder . that 's huge , right ? franco : hmm ? nina : sonny corinthos -- he confessed to murdering somebody . that 's a big deal , right ? franco : oh , i already knew that . no , the big deal is i finally have proof . carly : i 'm sorry , sonny . i should have never thrown what happened with a.j . in your face . sonny : [ sighs ] carly : you know me . when i 'm wrong and i 'm cornered , i just -- i lash out . sonny : no , it 's fine . carly : besides , i 'm complicit in all of this . i helped you cover up what happened so michael would never know the truth . i 've been lying to him as much as you have , and i 'm just struggling with all this guilt of what we 're doing and what we have been doing and what we 're doing to franco , you know ? it just ... [ sighs ] sonny : what 's done is done . we ca n't keep torturing ourselves , you know . we 've got to live our lives . we got to move on . same with franco . you got to move on . carly : sonny , we ca n't be together . we ca n't be together because you know -- you know what happens . you know it 's wrong . and i - i love franco , okay ? sonny : do you know him ? carly : yeah , i know him . sonny : no . carly : i live with him . i know him . sonny : yeah , but that does n't mean you know him . you do n't know him like you know me . i mean , you may know his bad habits and his history , but he 's not part of you . you know what i mean ? have you ever lost yourself with him -- so lost that you do n't know where he stops and you begin ? you do n't have that with him . you had that with me . you know , we can -- we can -- we can fight this forever . you know , the bottom line is what we 've got -- it 's -- it 's -- it 's ... it 's deep love . nothing can touch it . monica : you are , uh ... seeing your -- your wife ? that sounds ... involved . silas : it 's a little , uh -- it 's a little complicated to explain . i 'd rather not get into it right now . monica : ah , i got you . that 's fine . silas : so , this is date night , huh ? monica : [ chuckles ] well , yeah , and i 'm a little out of practice . i would say i have n't had a date since the first bush administration . silas : i think if you remember one thing , you 'll be fine . monica : oh ? what 's that ? silas : he 's a lucky guy . monica : well , thank you , dr. clay . that 's very sweet . silas : you know , i 've been here -- it must be about a year now , and i think it 's probably okay if you call me `` silas . `` monica : it 's okay to call me `` monica . `` silas : i 'll work on that . monica : okay . silas : have fun tonight . monica : thank you . silas : okay . not too much fun . monica : [ laughs ] tracy : patrick , i want answers as much as you do , and if i 'm being honest , luke has not been himself the last few months . i ignored it for a while . i just chalked it up to some kind of p.t.s.d . from being locked up in a mental ward . and , for the record , i still believe that 's the case . i do n't think luke spencer is going around , causing accidents and threatening small children . but i do want to put this whole crime - boss business to rest . patrick : and what if he says something you do n't want to hear ? are you gon na cover for him ? tracy : i already told you that i do not believe that luke is responsible and he will come up with a logical explanation . sam : okay , okay . but what he 's saying -- if luke is guilty , will you accept that guilt , or are you gon na keep on defending him ? tracy : if that happens to be the case , i will ... tell you what you want to know because that would mean that i also am being taken advantage of . sam : look , i am so sorry . i just -- do you think luke is gon na tell you the truth ? tracy : he knows that i 've been talking to dante . he knows that the police have been asking questions . he obviously trusts me enough to meet with me , and if he lies ... sam , i 'm gon na know it . i - i know him better than anybody . i 'll get you the answers you want . patrick : good , because if you do n't , i will , and my approach wo n't be nearly as gentle . [ monitor beeping ] dr. franklin : vitals are good -- surprisingly so , considering the severity of your injuries . you 're a lucky man , mr. , uh ... jason : um ... elizabeth : he 's having a hard time remembering his name , although he does have memory of the accident . dr. franklin : temporary memory loss is not uncommon with severe trauma . odd are , in time , it 'll all come back to you . jason : i remember something . elizabeth : do n't force yourself . just let it come back naturally . jason : i remember something . elizabeth : okay . what do you remember ? jason : elizabeth . dr. franklin : i 'm sorry . who 's elizabeth ? someone you know ? elizabeth : i think he means me . dr. franklin : oh , right . of course . elizabeth webber . i just assumed he meant a family member . you said you did n't know him , so ... elizabeth : i do n't . i 've been here , though , talking to him ... sitting here . is that what you meant ? do you remember me taking care of you ? elizabeth : [ distorted voice ] do you know how hard it is ... to lose the only person who believes i can figure out my own life ? elizabeth : am i the elizabeth you 're talking about ? jason : yes , you are . sam : hey . luke wo n't be here till tomorrow . there 's no point in getting all worked up . patrick : i wish there was something we could do . i mean , how do we know that tracy has n't been in on this from the beginning ? let 's be honest -- the quartermaines do n't trust her as far as they can throw her . she 's been in bed with the mob before . she was married to anthony zacchara . sam : look , if this is gon na work , i 'm telling you , forget tracy . patrick : forget tracy ? sam : yes . forget her . come on . you trust me , do n't you ? patrick : yes . i do trust you . [ knock on door ] patrick : hi . geert : is everything satisfactory ? patrick : i think so , yeah . we 're good here . sam : yeah , actually . um ... i 'm really jet - lagged . i 'd like to get checked in to my room . geert : your room ? sam : yeah . i have another room . geert : uh , i 'm sorry . something must have got lost in translation . we have you both booked in this room . patrick : oh , no , no , no , no . i booked -- i booked two rooms . geert : again , i apologize . there must be some misunderstanding . sam : that 's okay . i 'll book another room right now , then . geert : no , that 's not possible . the hotel is completely booked . monica : hello . waiter : hello . monica : um , i 'm a -- i 'm a few minutes late . uh , i wonder if my party is already here . uh , reservation was for 9 : 00 -- uh , two . the -- the name is walters . waiter : walters ? let 's check . monica : okay .

[ soft mid - tempo music playing ] waiter : are you folks ready to order ? maxie : um , i 'm actually still deciding . nathan : you need a couple of minutes ? we can -- maxie : no , no , no . you go ahead and order . everything looks so good , i ca n't make up my mind . nathan : i 'll have the fillet , please , rare , and french fries . waiter : and for the lady ? nathan : i hear the steak 's really good . maxie : oh . i will have the , uh , lentil patties over sautéed kale . thank you . not that the steak is n't great , i 'm sure . nathan : you want to call him back ? maxie : no , no , no . i love steak . i used to love steak . but i 'm a vegetarian now , so ... nathan : ah , right -- except for ribs . maxie : ribs . right . ohh ! i guess i do n't really know what i am anymore . that whole vegetarian thing was something i thought i believed in , but maybe i was n't ready to just go full vegan and just give up everything . i thought i could commit to it , but then it turns out that the loser who shall remain nameless -- his principles were -- nathan : i 'm sorry . who ? maxie : the loser who shall remain nameless . nathan : oh . and that would be ... maxie : right . him , okay ? i could use other descriptive words for him , but we 're at a fancy restaurant , so i 'm gon na refrain . anyway , um , when his principles ended up being some huge scam , i guess i just started to wonder what i actually do believe in . maybe this is a mistake . you know , if i ca n't order dinner without having some sort of existential crisis , what business do i have going out with you ? carly : [ breathes heavily ] oh , god , sonny . do n't stop . franco : i 've seen a lot of disgusting things in my life , but i do n't think i 've ever seen anything so depraved . nina : okay . we 're gon na have to , uh , turn that off . you 're just gon na drive yourself crazy . franco : yeah , nina . you do n't know this about me because you were in a coma , but there was a period of time in my life where i kind of had the market cornered on crazy . i think it 's time i reminded those two of that . carly : i ca n't believe we did that again . sonny : i can . [ grunts ] carly : [ sighs ] sonny : [ sighs ] carly : i got to get home . sonny : why ? carly : why ? because franco is probably looking for me . sonny : so let him ! carly : so he can ask me more questions about what 's going on between us ? sonny : no , that 's the best thing . carly : what do you mean , that 's the best thing ? sonny : yeah . i think it 's time we -- we let this out in the open . elizabeth : i 'll let the on - call know about all the amendments in his chart . dr. franklin : all right . elizabeth : thanks .

[ sighs ] he -- he selected those things because he knew that they would strike a chord with you . you know what ? he 's a terrible excuse for a human being , and he pretended to support all these worthy causes because he knew they would appeal to a good person like you . maxie : okay . you need to take a look at my rap sheet again , because `` good `` does not describe me at any phase of my life . nathan : you , maxie jones , are a good person , okay ? you can be a yoga - doing , veggie - loving , world - saving version of yourself , or you could be a committed fashionista or some combination of the two . you 'll still be amazing . maxie : oh . thank you . waiter : you 're welcome . nathan : thanks . look , i will accept you for whoever you want to be , if you can accept me for the caveman that i am . maxie : deal . nathan : bon appétit . judge walters : they have an excellent menu . monica : mm . judge walters : but i 'm sure you 've been here many times . monica : uh , well , yes , i have . but what i have n't done many times is have dinner with someone i met over the internet . i have to say i 'm a little nervous . judge walters : well , not me . i googled you . monica : [ chuckles ] well , i googled you , too . judge walters : [ laughs ] you know , it 's a new world , monica . the last time i went out on a date , computers were something that only nasa had . monica : mm - hmm , and they were as big as this restaurant . judge walters : mm - hmm .

morgan : damn it , kiki . woman : ahh ! [ scene_break ] anna : this was a really good idea of yours , insisting we have dinner . griffin : thank you . i figured you could use a distraction . anna : yeah . it 's been a very complicated week to say the least . griffin : i mean what would port charles law enforcement do without you , anna ? anna : oh , they 'd get by -- um , for the most part . [ chuckles ] griffin : that 's not true . you took down paul hornsby before he could harm anyone else . anna : i hope they can reopen the hospital again quickly now that he 's in custody . griffin : [ sighs ] yeah . with any luck . anna : i skyped with emma this morning . griffin : how is she ? anna : she 's good . she 's still very upset about sabrina obviously . griffin : i hate that a beautiful little girl like her has to know that this type of ugliness exists in the world . anna : she knows it exists . she had to accept the way your father was taken from us . griffin : [ sighs ] i still ca n't get over the fact that julian went free . i mean , i just ca n't -- i just ca n't understand it . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] alexis : what the hell are you doing here ? [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] sonny : do you know why i 'm here ? julian 's a free man . i have to take action . priest : i did n't realize anyone was waiting . sonny : hello , father . i 'm sorry . i just let myself in . priest : of course . are you here for confession ? [ scene_break ] bartender : hey . the usual ? morgan : where 's darby at ? you seen her ? bartender : not tonight . i just got on . morgan : hey . nelle . nelle : rough day ? morgan : [ sighs ] yeah . i just found out my girlfriend 's cheating on me . [ scene_break ] olivia : [ breathing heavily ] ned : [ sighs ] olivia : wow . ned : `` wow '' ... is right . olivia : [ sighs ] ned : [ sighs ] olivia : did you hear something before ? ned : mnh . nothing but my pounding heart . [ both laugh ] ned : that was really intense . [ sighs ] olivia : well , what can i say ? you inspire me . [ laughs ] ned : you inspire me . i am so glad to be sneaking around with you . olivia : mm , really ? ned : mm - hmm . olivia : having sex in a boathouse to keep julian from finding out about us ? ned : well , you got to admit it 's kind of hot . olivia : [ laughs ] super hot . ned : now , do you think it 's the keep - the - secret part that 's making it that way , or that ... you and ... are amazing together ? olivia : mm , how about both ? [ laughs ] ned : mm . [ scene_break ] dillon : you know , you really did n't have to drive me . kiki : yeah , well , you really did n't have to change my tire that night , but you did , so this is my way of paying you back . dillon : yeah , uh ... since i spent the entire day redecorating my family 's boathouse , i got some work i got to catch up on . kiki : i 'm sure that nina would give you a break . dillon : yeah , probably , but , uh , i would n't feel right asking . it 's not a big deal anyway . i just got to pull some shots and get some archived photos . kiki : do you need some help ? dillon : you did a great job on my hand . i 'm fine . kiki : i 'm not just worried about your damn hand , dillon . dillon : i know , and i 'm good . kiki : no , you 're not . your father is a -- dillon : my father is the reason that i want to work until i ca n't keep my eyes open , kiki . if i keep working , then i do n't think about him . kiki : yeah , you will . dillon : [ sighs ] not if i can ... kiki : what ? [ scene_break ] anna : at least we know now why julian was acquitted . paul basically sabotaged his own case . he tampered with the warrant for the wiretap . he impaneled jurors who were favorable to the defense . i do n't think that he killed sabrina to keep her from testifying , but that was certainly a collateral benefit . the one thing that he appears not to have had anything to do with is why alexis fell apart on the stand . griffin : look , nothing 's gon na change the fact that the man who ordered my father 's murder will never pay . i 've been trying to make peace with it since it happened . anna : how 's that working out for you ? griffin : [ chuckles lightly ] well , i have a slightly more religious bent than you do , so i try to tell myself it 's all part of god 's plan . anna : does that help ? d - does it help with the anger ? griffin : no . no , not so far . in fact , when i see julian , i have a visceral reaction . it 's actually new to me . anna : what is ? griffin : hatred . i am not happy with these feelings , but even with prayer i ca n't get rid of it . it 's not very christian . anna : no . but it is human . [ scene_break ] alexis : get the hell out of my house , julian ! i 've got a restraining order . i 'll use it . julian : i never would have come over if i would have known you were home . your car 's not in the driveway . alexis : let me explain something to you about a restraining order . it means you do n't come near me or my residence , whether the car is in the driveway or the car is n't in the driveway , so turn around , walk out the door , keep walking , and do n't come back . what is wrong with you ? ! do you want me to call the police ? you will be arrested . julian : you do n't need to call the police , alexis . i just came here to pick up my last box that you told me was in the basement . so let me go get it , and i will go . i promise you i will leave , and i 'm never gon na get in your way again . [ scene_break ] sonny : i did n't come here for confession , father . i just -- i just want to talk to god on my own tonight . priest : by all means . sonny : i stopped going to confession a long time ago . i - i do n't have the right to ask for forgiveness when i ... when i know only sin and i 'm gon na ... continue to sin . i ca n't follow the laws of the church . i got my own code . it 's pretty much right and wrong . [ sighs ] i let the courts deal with julian , and they failed . ca n't have a man like him free . it 's a threat . so , i got to get justice myself . i know you know everything , god ... so you know why i have to do this . [ footsteps approach ] [ scene_break ] nelle : she 's your girlfriend , morgan . morgan : yeah , well , i probably should have seen it coming . he was there the first night i went to see kiki . he never really backed off . i guess i just thought that she would . but , anyway , you 're sitting here on your phone , private . you probably do n't want to hear this . nelle : no , it 's okay . i was just looking through some real - estate listings . morgan : oh , uh , you 're looking for a place ? nelle : yeah , um , now that i 'm working for your mom , i can afford someplace decent . morgan : mm - hmm . i did that . i did that for kiki and i , and that completely backfired on me . nelle : you know what , morgan ? sit down . i do n't need to do this right now , seriously . here . sit down . do you want to talk ? morgan : [ clears throat ] ehh , i do n't know . nelle : you know , no pressure -- i just thought if you wanted to , i would listen , but , you know , you came to the bar for a reason . morgan : yeah . bartender : your usual -- club soda . [ scene_break ] [ both breathing heavily ] olivia : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] god , i hope nobody heard us . [ both sigh ] ned : well , i speak from experience -- you can never hear anything that goes on down here from the main house . olivia : well ... i guess it would n't hurt to make sure ... ned : whoa , whoa , whoa , where you going ? olivia : ... to make sure -- we 're going through all this trouble ... ned : olivia , where you going ? olivia : ... to make sure julian does n't find out about us . it would n't hurt to make sure the door is actually locked . ned : it 's -- [ sighs ] olivia : look at this . it 's wide open . ned : [ groans ] olivia : [ gasps ] oh , my god . ned : just -- look , just close the door and lock it . olivia : oh , my god . n - ned , no , you got to see what 's here in the door . [ sighs ] ned : what ? olivia : someone is trying to send us a message . [ scene_break ] julian : thank you for letting me get it . alexis : well , i would say , `` good night , `` but that would imply that i wanted to have one . julian : you know , uh -- alexis : oh , so close . julian : look , i know i do n't hold any sway over you anymore . alexis : you never did hold any sway over me , julian . julian : but i still care about you , alexis , and , you know , it looks to me as if you may have a problem . alexis : really ? julian : yep . alexis : is that what you think ? you 're right . i do have a problem -- you . [ scene_break ] sonny : i was , uh -- i was just talking things over with the boss . griffin : yeah , i heard . sonny : you were listening ? griffin : for a second . it sounds like we 're here for the same reason . sonny : oh , i doubt that . griffin : we both put our faith in the justice system and wound up disappointed . now we 're here to put our faith in god instead . sonny : that 's one way to put it . griffin : i came to pray for guidance , so that i could learn to live with the fact that the man who killed my father before i could even know him is free -- and for humility . sonny : what does that get you , being humble ? griffin : if i accept the fact that i may not know why something happened , that i may not have access to all the answers i seek , there 's grace . what do you want from him ? what do you want god to tell you ? [ scene_break ] dillon : i 'm good , kiki . you do n't need to worry about me . kiki : i recognize those words . i 've said them myself after finding out about some horrible thing that my mother has done , my head spinning , screaming at me that this woman who swears that she loves me has done something horrible , something that i despise . what does that say about me ? dillon : nothing . we went over this . kiki : exactly -- you 're not responsible for your father , and i 'm not responsible for my mother , remember ? and i know that rationally in my head , but deep down , where i 'm scared and irrational , i have trouble believing it sometimes . so , if you 're feeling that way , you 're not alone . dillon : [ scoffs ] [ sighs ] i just feel like i 'm , like , one of those people in one of those disaster movies or something , you know , just walking around in the aftermath in total shock . i mean , obviously , i never even knew my father . he never showed his true self to me . maybe i should be grateful for that . kiki : your father was a sad excuse of a parent , but you wanted him not to be . you wanted to see the best in him , not the worst . you wanted to matter more to him than ... whatever it was that he was doing . he claimed that he loved you . and he let you down , and that sucks . and i 'm sorry . i have n't been where you are , but ... i 've been pretty close . dillon : thanks . it helps knowing that you at least understand . so , you want to help me with this ? kiki : yeah , i do . [ scene_break ] nelle : so , you do n't drink ? morgan : not anymore . [ sighs ] wow , that 's really , really refreshing , but you know what ? it 's not as refreshing as these . let me tell you about these . see that yellow one ? nelle : mm - hmm . morgan : that 's the one that i take to stabilize my mood , but [ chuckles ] good luck with that . that white one right there , that 's the one i take to make me happy when i 'm depressed , but that has n't really been working too well lately . you know what the crazy thing is ? the crazy thing is -- no pun intended -- is that everybody around me , my mom , my dad , my whole family , my shrink , my girlfriend -- actually , well , my ex - girlfriend now -- tells me that if take these pills everything 's gon na be fine . but you know what ? i take them . i take them day in , and i take them day out . i even have a reminder programmed into my phone to take them so i do n't miss any . and you know what ? i feel like hell . i feel like hell , because i take them and i ca n't drink . i ca n't be normal . nelle : [ sighs ] morgan : what are you doing ? nelle : i thought we could clink glasses and make a toast . morgan : i 'm sorry is -- are you trying to make a -- nelle : uh , this is straight cranberry juice . i ca n't drink , either . you think i 'm not normal , too ? [ scene_break ] olivia : y - you see this ? you see this ? this is exactly what i said would happen . ned : you said someone would slap a hook into the door of the boathouse ? olivia : are you kidding me ? this does n't freak you out ? ned : do we know how this happened ? olivia : i got a pretty good guess . julian found out . ned : about us ? no , it 's crazy . olivia : it 's a message , ned . this is a threat . ned : [ sighs ] liv , come here . [ sighs ] do not panic . olivia : ned , this is julian 's way of telling us he 's not going to stand by and let you become the man in leo 's life . [ sighs ] ned : well , you may have a point . olivia : of course , i 've got a point . he 's an arrogant narcissist who views leo as a piece of property . oh , also , he 's an abuser and a murderer who tried to slit his own wife 's throat . ned : well , i refuse to let julian jerome threaten us . so we 'll just go find him right now and settle this . olivia : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] julian : anna . anna : this is a surprise . julian : oh , i bet . anna : i wondered when this would happen -- when i would randomly run into you . in 1,000 years , i did n't expect it to be here . julian : [ sighs ] yeah , well , first and last time -- here , that is . i 'm sure we 're bound to see each other around town . i mean , after all , you 're free , and , uh , i 'm free . anna : i would n't be so smug about your freedom . julian : really , and why 's that ? you have some plans for me , anna , or maybe you know somebody who does , huh ? anna : i just think it 's fair to say that your path to freedom is lined with people who think your not - guilty verdict was a travesty , and really it 's just a question of time before they remedy that situation . julian : you 're kind of walking a fine line there , are n't you , anna ? anna : i 'm just stating the obvious . what goes around comes around . you know , you 've -- you 've done a world of damage , julian , and it 's coming back to bite you . julian : [ sighs ] you know , anna , i 'm pretty sure that i have the full protection of the pcpd to keep sonny corinthos in check , if that is indeed who you 're referring to . anna : okay . but sometimes your allies are really your enemies . can i come in ? julian : have a good night . [ sighs ] alexis : you can come in , anna , but you ca n't stay long . anna : okay . alexis : i know why you 're here , and i 'm not in the mood . [ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't -- i do n't expect god to tell me anything . griffin : but yet , you 're here , in church . sonny : uh , yeah , out of respect . i do n't -- look , god is not gon na approve of what i 'm doing , but he sees my heart , and he knows why i do it . [ sighs ] griffin : i take it there are people in your life who do n't share the same understanding ? sonny : uh ... [ sighs ] my wife . she married me knowing who i am and how my business operates , and now she wants me to change . griffin : so , maybe -- maybe that 's why you 're here . sonny : maybe , you know ? i did what carly wanted . she wanted me to trust the system . it failed , so now i got -- you know , i got no choice . i got to get justice . griffin : carly disagrees ? sonny : well , look , this justice i 'm talking about is n't just for me . i mean ... julian 's hurt a lot of people . you 're high on that list . griffin : that 's true . i am . and i 'm with you on this , sonny . i want justice served as much -- maybe even more -- than you do . but i got to ask you a question . what gives you the right to be the one to serve it ? [ scene_break ] morgan : i 'm sure that you mean well , but our situations are completely different . i mean , you take the pills because you have to . nelle : and so do you , morgan . morgan : you have kidney problems , okay ? my brain 's a train wreck . nelle : do you really want to have an argument about who 's sicker ? morgan : the point is you 're sick because you gave my sister a kidney . nelle : okay , do n't paint me as some sort of saint , okay ? my parents chose to sell my kidney . it was n't my choice . and neither is your bipolar disorder . morgan : but -- nelle : no , `` but `` nothing . when you 're raised by parents who are willing to sell your kidney , it kind of does a number on your head . so do n't think for a second that you 're the only one at the bar with problems . morgan : so , what are you saying -- we 're two of a kind ? nelle : if you want to see it that way . morgan : maybe i do . [ scene_break ] [ indistinct conversations ] ned : so , you 're sure julian 's going to be here . olivia : yeah , he called in a reservation 10 minutes ago and said he was on his way . ned : great . as soon as we settle this , the better . julian : [ sighs ] olivia : [ sighs ] there he is . ned : let 's do it . olivia : just what exactly in the hell do you think you are doing ? julian : about to have dinner , unless you 're about to tell me that i 'm not welcome in this establishment . and , if you do , see , i have a case for a civil suit , and i 'm getting really good at that whole courtroom stuff . olivia : i got your warning , julian , and i have a warning of my own . julian : you 're gon na have to translate because i have no idea what you 're talking about . olivia : the only thing that you and i have in common is leo , and you may not like it that i 'm bringing another man into his life , but that does not give you the right to threaten us . julian : again , no idea what you 're talking about . ned : julian ! save it . no one ever believed you were innocent except for alexis , and look where that got her . you are a murderous thug , and if you go anywhere near olivia again , you will find yourself back in court , but this time you wo n't have a corrupt da to save your ass . do you hear me ? julian : oh , i heard you , but see the thing is if you 're gon na threaten me , you might as well tell me what this is all about . olivia : oh , god , do not play dumb ! did you really think that i would n't come running right over to you the minute that i saw this ? julian : what am i looking at ? olivia : the hook in the boathouse door . you were obviously sending us a message -- a death threat . [ scene_break ] alexis : you can save the lecture , anna . i already know that i blew it on the witness stand . but , you know , you 're team really blew it , which is why his confession got thrown out , right ? even still , my testimony should have been enough to damn him . i mean , he told me that he had duke killed . he killed carlos . he almost killed me . and i knew all those things , and i should have said all those things , but i did n't say them . my testimony was an incoherent mess . [ throws down a packet ] anna : does that have anything to do with it ? alexis : what , that ? anna : mm - hmm . alexis : no , that has nothing to do with it . anna : okay . i 'm just asking . alexis : i had one drink at lunch that day , anna -- one -- and i did n't even finish it . so i know you want some sort of an explanation as to what happened to me up there , you know , and why i was so compromised that i did n't say what i needed to say , but i really do n't have an answer . i just do n't . you know , maybe it was nerves . maybe it was stress . maybe it was just the fact that i was up there on the stand opposite of my husband and wondering how the hell that happened . anna : okay . so , julian has been tried for all three offenses , and he 's been acquitted . and now double jeopardy applies , and he wo n't ever pay for any of it . [ bottles clink ] alexis : anna , let 's just be honest , all right ? anna : sure . alexis : okay . there 's only one charge that mattered to you , the conspiracy in the murder of duke . anna : yeah , obviously , i wanted justice for duke . but i wanted it for you , too . and this may sound hypocritical -- i also kind of wanted it for carlos . as much as i hated him , i knew that it was julian that was always pulling the strings . and now -- oh , god , alexis . that was our one chance to get him . it was our one chance . alexis : i know that , anna . nobody is more aware of that than me . nobody has dressed me down or been more angry at me than me . i have read this unintelligible transcript line by line . i am sick to my stomach over it . i am mortified . i am embarrassed . nobody is more disappointed in me than me , because julian should have been locked up and spent the rest of his miserable life in jail , and i botched it . anna : well , you protected him for the better part of a year ... alexis : [ sighs ] anna : even though , as you said , you knew he killed duke . but you never gave it away , right ? you were very guarded with everything you said . you kept your wits about you , and then the second it comes that we can get him to pay -- alexis : i get it ! anna , i get it . how many different ways do you want me to tell you that i get it ? i failed . i 'm a miserable , miserable failure . julian is out running around , because of me . i get it ! so , whatever you came here to tell me , i think that i 've said it all , do n't you ? anna : i do . i think you said it all . [ scene_break ] griffin : what gives you the right to exact your own personal brand of justice against julian ? sonny : first of all , i do n't go after innocent people . i go after bad people , and i have resources that other people do n't have . griffin : wait , so , might makes right ? sonny : let me tell you something about living in my world , griffin . it 's a world where somebody like julian can come after me , which he already did . griffin : no , i -- sonny : hold -- hold on . the worst part is , he can come after people that i love . so you want me to just sit on my hands and do nothing ? griffin : `` ' vengeance is mine , ' saith the lord . `` sonny : i would love to leave vengeance to god , but here 's the thing -- god does n't deliver . he talks a good game , but he actually does n't do a damn thing . [ scene_break ] nelle : no . morgan . morgan : hm . nelle : no . morgan : what ? nelle : i was trying to show you some empathy . that was n't an invitation to kiss me . morgan : okay . um , i guess i just read the signals wrong . nelle : maybe you were trying to bury the pain of your breakup with kiki . morgan : i 'm sorry . yeah , i 'm sorry , too . i 'm sorry you found kiki with that guy , and , you know , i hope , whatever happens , it works out for you , okay ? [ alarm beeps ] [ scene_break ] kiki : [ chuckles ] you definitely did n't take this one . dillon : what makes you so sure ? kiki : 'cause you 're in it . dillon : [ chuckles ] we were pretty incredible that night , and i do n't say that about myself , like , ever . kiki : i mean , the truth is the truth , right ? dillon : exactly . that was a really fun night . kiki : yeah , it really was -- getting the act together at the last minute and then killing it . i mean ... you know , doing , like , a really good job . dillon : you stole the show . kiki : we did . it was a duet . it takes two to tango . dillon : i remember being really happy that night . kiki : so do i . [ scene_break ] anna : yeah , that must have been really dreadful for you in the courtroom . alexis : impossibly so . anna : why was julian here , then ? alexis : he said he wanted to get something out of the basement and that my car was n't in the driveway . anna : you ca n't let him in here again , alexis . alexis : he used his key . anna : so change the locks . alexis : i 'm doing it . anna : jordan said you have a restraining order against him . this is in violation of that . i 'm a witness . report it . [ scene_break ] julian : just to be clear ... [ sighs ] you two think i put , um , this hook in a door to send you both a message . is that right ? olivia : a message , a warning , a threat , whatever you want to call it , julian . obviously , you found out that ned and i were back together . and you hated it , and you wanted to make us stop . that 's why we were meeting in secret in the first place , because we were afraid of what you might do . julian : okay . all right . here 's the thing -- um , i did n't put any hook in any door . olivia : oh , my god . stop lying ! julian : and , until you just told me , i had no idea that you two were back together , so somebody else must have sent you that message / warning / threat , not me . ned : it was n't you ? julian : no , it was n't me . i mean , it 's creative , i have to admit , but , uh , it was n't my work . and , as far as you two getting back together , well , you know , congratulations . olivia : `` congratulations `` ? julian : yeah . i mean , you know , your personal life is of no concern to me . it does n't interest me . i mean , i 'm sorry if that hurts you , but it 's the truth . and as far as leo goes , well , since i 've been exonerated , i can see my kid whenever i want . olivia : no , you can not . julian : uh , yes , i can . you see , you -- you and i , we have a visitation agreement . olivia : which was drawn up by your ex - wife , whose throat you tried to slit ! ned : if you choose to take this to court , i 'm sure alexis will be more than willing ... julian : [ sighs ] ned : ... to testify on olivia 's behalf . julian : hm . well , if you try , you 'll really have to worry about giant hooks . [ scene_break ] sonny : where was god when deke was beating up my mother ? where was god when my first wife was murdered by her father ? i did n't see god swooping down and giving out punishment . i had to do that . you know what , one more thing -- i got to do what i got to do , because it 's the only way that i know how to take care of the people that i love . so until god decides he 's going to take care of business , i have to do the dirty work . [ scene_break ] olivia : do you think julian meant what he said ? ned : that he intends to see leo ? yes . olivia : yeah , but do you believe him when he said he was n't the one who put the hook in the door ? ned : i do . he really did n't seem to give a damn that we were seeing each other . [ sighs ] olivia : okay , so , then , who would do that and why ? ned : i think it was dillon . he spent the better part of the afternoon tearing apart the boathouse . olivia : because of his father ? ned : mm - hmm . dillon and paul were never that close , but it 's a big leap from being estranged from your father to finding out that he 's a serial killer . dillon put that hook in the door to vent . i hope he got some satisfaction . [ scene_break ] dillon : that night ... kiki : that was the first night we kissed . dillon : it was one of the best nights of my life . kiki : mine , too . [ scene_break ] [ alarm beeps ] morgan : [ sighs ] bartender : hit you again ? morgan : yeah . make it a double vodka -- straight . [ scene_break ] anna : i walk in here , and julian 's standing in your living room . that is a clear violation of your restraining order . you know , it might not be enough to get him arrested , but i would certainly want that violation on the books . would n't you ? alexis : i think the most i can hope for is that he just does n't come back . anna : okay , so , just make sure you change the locks , then . alexis : do you think sonny will find him ? anna : go after him , you mean ? alexis : mm - hmm . anna : you tell me . i mean , sonny is kristina 's father . i think you know a little something about how he deals with people he regards as a threat , because duke was working for sonny when julian had him killed . and that 's a direct insult to his pride and authority , but yet he could n't retaliate , because julian was hiding behind danny and you . but danny does n't need him anymore , and presumably you do n't have any interest in protecting him . do you ? because , i certainly do n't . alexis : have you ever ? anna : absolutely , i -- yeah . i wanted julian brought to justice in a court of law . i wanted him tried and convicted by a jury of his peers and sent to prison for the rest of his life , to spend all those years that he 'd stolen from duke rotting in a cell , cut off from you and his family and everything he valued . that 's what i wanted . and to that end , i made it clear to sonny that if he killed julian or had him killed , i would see him prosecuted . and i used every method at my disposal to make sure that sonny did n't take revenge . now , i 'm not gon na do that again . [ scene_break ] julian : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] griffin : sonny . sonny , you 're right about one thing . what you 're doing is dirty work , but it is n't god 's work . if god did n't take vengeance on the people who harmed you or your loved ones , then he had his reasons -- reasons you ca n't know , which means the actions you took were for your satisfaction , not god 's . sonny : what are you saying ? are you saying that i kill people because it makes me feel good ? griffin : do n't you ? sonny : [ laughs ] griffin : i mean , you can tell yourself you 're protecting your loved ones or whatever helps you sleep at night , but you 're not serving god . believing in god is accepting his infinite wisdom , even when you do n't understand it . that 's what faith is -- willingly surrendering yourself to a higher power , giving and serving something greater than yourself . if you are n't willing to let god decide when to exact vengeance , maybe you do n't actually think he 's there to make the decision . maybe , sonny -- i - i do n't know -- maybe you do n't believe in god at all . [ next_on ] jason ( to julian ) : you got a problem ? carly ( to julian ) : do we ? sam ( to alexis ) : mom , have you been drinking ? kiki ( to dillon ) : i do n't think i ever completely got over you . scott ( to ava ) : you should stay as far away from him as you can . griffin ( to sonny ) : you have a chance to make things right . tj ( to morgan ) : i 'm not gon na let you go anywhere .

morgan is drinking and unraveling after he 's gone to find kiki and it appears she and dillon were together in a cabin kissing . kiki and dillon return to crimson and bond over their common struggle of being the child of a dishonorable person and afraid of following in their respective parents ' footsteps . he offers her support and encouragement with how she feels about being ava 's daughter as she offers him support after finding out his father is a serial killer . meanwhile ned is with olivia secretly sleeping together at the cabin where morgan just found dillon with kiki . they acknowledge that they are secretly together hiding from julian when they get what appears to be a threatening note which they assume is from julian . yet when they go to confront him , it appears he has no reason to threaten them , does not care if they are together and has no worries or struggles involving seeing his and olivia 's mutual son . at that point , ned concludes he knows where it came from . alexis is alone and in a bad state of mind when julian comes to the house to collect his things and she angrily demands he never come near her again . anna comes by , admits to alexis she 's disappointed in her but is also willing to protect her from julian at any cost . sonny makes it clear to griffin that he has no choice except to take the law into his own hands with julian .

heather : i told you my plan would work . the police are more convinced than ever that skye killed detective duncan , and of course luke 's letter proves it . not that it was easy to get him to write the thing , but drugs can be very persuasive . all i had to do was pop it in the mailbox . it was almost too easy . and with skye back in prison , luke is free to come back to us once and for all , just as soon as i 'm ready . and then i 'll take care of him , just the way you would if you were n't so very ill . do n't worry -- you 'll be safe here while i make all the arrangements . and in the end , luke will be very happy .

[ scene_break ] emily : i 'm grateful for your concern , nikolas , but you do n't have to worry . i 'm perfectly fine . my parents would n't allow me to be released if i were n't and , you know , as for going home , i 'm still staying at sonny 's . and max is waiting for me outside , so i need to get going . it 's michael 's back - to - school night and -- nikolas : listen , emily , have n't you done enough for sonny 's kids already ? you just literally just put your life on the line for those people . i mean , carly attacked you because she does n't want you near her children , you understand ? emily : carly 's not responsible for what she did . nikolas , she 's having a complete nervous breakdown , ok , and besides , she 's not around . sonny had carly committed , so i 'm not in any danger . nikolas : yeah . do you hear yourself right now ? you 're going to sonny 's house . that 's where danger lives . emily : do n't ask me not to , nikolas . sonny 's kids just lost their mother . i ca n't abandon them , too . [ scene_break ] sonny : since roselawn wo n't let me visit carly , then i want her somewhere that will . lainey : any decent facility is going to deny you access to carly . at this stage in her illness , contact with you does more harm than good . sonny : ok , explain that to me , please . lainey : well , carly does n't simply love you , sonny . she 's dependent upon you . and that 's not healthy for a damaged person who 's trying to get well . it 's counterproductive . carly needs to focus on her own problems . she needs time to be alone to figure out who she is and what she wants , and only then can carly deal with you . sonny : thanks for coming by . that 's very nice . lainey : well , what does that mean ? sonny : well , that means i just -- go ahead and you tell carly 's doctors that i 'll do what they want for now , but i want regular updates on her condition . that is nonnegotiable . lainey : of course . sonny : all right . lainey : sonny , you 're doing the right thing . sonny : i hope so . reese : honey , i know how difficult this is for you , but lainey is right . you 're doing the best thing for carly . sonny : she 's not going to see it that way . these doctors , they do n't know carly . you know , she 's a file , a case number . i know carly , and carly 's going to see it as like i threw her in a place that scares her the most and i just abandoned her .

[ skye laughs ] luke : 100 % . and to call my money here stolen -- i mean , that 's a bit harsh . lorenzo : no , actually , torture is what 's harsh , and that 's what you 'll be facing if the money in question was stolen from the ruizes . [ scene_break ] sam : here , i stocked up on all your favorites . danny : why ? sam : why ? because i was hoping you 'd come visit me , that 's why . danny : you 're not mad at me because i did n't want to see you ? sam : no , i knew that you were upset with me , but i could never be mad at you , danny . danny : that 's what jason said . he told me to let you explain and then i would n't feel mad anymore , either . sam : well , do you ? danny : no . are you and jason going to live here forever ? sam : well , we really are n't sure yet . jason and i are still kind of figuring things out so , you know , if things go my way then , yeah , we 're going to be here for a really long time . danny : when you told me to live here , you said you could n't come because jason had an important job protecting people in port charles . what happened ? do n't the people need jason to protect them anymore ? [ scene_break ] reese : jason is gone , god knows where . the ruiz family is ready to attack . sonny needs me now more than ever , and he 's just not letting me in . ric : i hope you 're not looking to me for sonny clarification . look , how my brother thinks and why he makes the decisions that he makes is difficult to understand at best . all i know is if i were in sonny 's position and you were fighting to be with me , i think i 'd let you . reese : oh , you 're so sweet . ric : hmm . hi . alexis : i -- i 'm sorry to interrupt , but ric and i were supposed to have a meeting to discuss some legalities . reese : sure . i 've taken up too much of ric 's time anyway . thanks for listening . you 've given me a lot to think about . ric : mm - hmm . reese : alexis . ric : you ok ? alexis : yep . oh . just a friendly tip -- if you want to continue bonding with sonny , you should probably stop paying so much attention to his girlfriend . [ alexis sighs ] [ scene_break ] justus : you know , it 's been my experience that people who are overly defensive about their past have something in it that they 're trying to run from . lainey : and this experience you speak of -- is it professional or personal ? justus : both . on a personal level , i made some mistakes years ago and i tried to outrun them by moving to manhattan . i got a new job , new friends , completely disassociated myself from my past , and when people would call me on it , i would get defensive , just like you . lainey : if you were going to come here and tell me how you faced your demons and you came back and you 're stronger and better than ever , not everybody has the luxury of being able to go back and confront their past . [ scene_break ] courtney : obviously , i ca n't keep the pregnancy a secret indefinitely , dad , but everywhere i look , there are land mines . you know , jax and elizabeth are still dealing with the aftereffects of the miscarriage , and nikolas , he 's already told me he has no desire to be a father . besides , his feelings for emily are so unresolved . mike : all right , i thought the marriage was over . courtney : yeah , well , elizabeth does n't . she was just here pointing out the obvious , like i do n't have eyes in my head . look , nikolas and emily are still connected . ok , look , if they want to pick up the pieces of their lives together , i do n't want the baby or my feelings for nikolas to get in the way . mike : all right . it 's your decision , honey . but we both know the truth is going to come out eventually , so why not tell it now ? a father wants to know that he 's going to have a child , so the sooner you tell nikolas , the better . [ scene_break ] luke : look , lorenzo , i may be many things , but suicidal is n't among them . the ruiz clan -- they 're a bunch of feral dogs with an uncouth sense of revenge . i would n't take anything from those people if they gave it to me . skye : so who did you steal the money from ? luke : i earned it . lorenzo : no , not that kind of money . luke : lorenzo , you paid me for my expertise . what makes you think there are n't a whole bunch of people lining up to do the same ? skye : all right , then . how did you earn it ? luke : profits from a little money - laundering scheme that i did for a local bookie . lorenzo : you know , i 'm just curious . what kind of local bookie can afford to lay out a million dollars ? luke : why are you still here ? do n't you know three 's a crowd ? we 're due for a barnstormer of a reunion . lorenzo : hmm . are you sure about that ? luke : wait a minute . do n't tell me you 're still playing footsie with tall , dark , and bearded . skye : well , lorenzo has very many attractive qualities . for starters , he 's single , or at least in the process of getting a divorce , which is more than i can say for you . luke : do n't hold tracy against me . skye : she 's your wife . luke : for a reason . skye : yeah , for your reasons , not mine , ok ? [ phone rings ] skye : i mean , really , why should i stand in the wings waiting for all these opportunities that are passing -- hello ! are you going to get that ? luke : i 'm talking to the only person that matters . skye : well , then i will . luke spencer 's suite . and whom shall i say is calling ? a vinnie blue eyes ? he wants to discuss his money and your wife . luke : what ? vinnie : give me the million and your wife will be returned unharmed . luke : is my little cupcake there ? vinnie : you bet , and she 's not very happy about it . luke : well , hold out the phone , because i want you both to hear this . are you ready ? vinnie : go on . luke : the million is mine . i 'm keeping it . feel free to do the same with mrs. spencer . tracy : ugh .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : i marched over to courtney 's , knocked on her door , and told her flat - out to break up with nikolas so he can go back to emily . how 's that for meddling busybody behavior ? lucky : hmm . elizabeth : i 'm sorry , i just ca n't keep quiet . lucky : no , it 's good for you . elizabeth : wait . you approve ? lucky : i saw nikolas and emily at the hospital . they 're still awkward , you know , still keeping -- making excuses to stay away from each other , but it 's obvious they still love each other . elizabeth : yes . yes , i agree . so if courtney would just stay out of the way , maybe nikolas and emily could find their way back to each other . [ scene_break ] courtney : hey , thanks for coming over . nikolas : yeah , of course . and , you know , if you had n't have called , i would have called you anyway . it 's just obviously things have been a little crazy lately , but they 're starting to calm down . emily , she was released from the hospital tonight . nikolas : yeah . yeah , i mean , i 'll -- i 'll always care about her . hey , come here . but i want you to know that i care about you , too , ok ? courtney : yeah . nikolas : what ? courtney : no , i -- i mean , i believe that , and the feeling 's mutual . you mean so much to me , nikolas . but i 've had a lot of time to think , and i 've come to a decision . nikolas : ok . courtney : you and i are over .

[ kate chuckles ] kate : oh , i must look awful . sonny : you look beautiful , what are you talking about ? kate : see ? he 's handsome and diplomatic . i knew there was a reason i was marrying you . sonny : i like to hear you talk like that , because it makes me feel like you 're going to be fine . kate : i was n't going to die , sonny , and leave just when we 're about to get everything we wanted . sonny : you did not deserve what happened . kate : it happened to both of us . we 're going to get through this together . sonny : you need to rest . kate : do n't leave . sonny : no , it just that , you know , doctor 's orders and , uh -- we 've got plenty of time to talk . you -- i do n't want -- you 're going to get tired , you know what i mean ? kate : well , will you stay with me until i fall asleep ? sonny : yeah , yeah , yeah .

[ scene_break ] claudia : i do n't want you to go to sleep , okay ? you could have a concussion . we 'll just stay up and watch movies , old movies like we used to . we 'll do all the dialogue , okay ? johnny : stop nursing me and tell me why the hell you would sleep with ric lansing . claudia : i did . i told you . you just did n't like my answer . hey , i find the guy attractive , okay ? i get him . he gets me . and there 's the little fact that he saved your life , little brother , who i love more than anything else in the entire world , so -- johnny : you saved me , claudia . you and nobody else . you have no obligation to ric lansing , so i want you to promise me right now that you 're not going see him again . [ scene_break ] [ anthony laughs ] anthony : let me see this . oh , you got in some kind of fight . ric : yeah , no fight , actually . your son attacked me . anthony : eh , i 'll give you a bump in salary . we 'll call it hazard pay . ric : gee , thanks . anthony : it 's understandable that johnny 's volatile right now . his little lulu cracked like a coconut smacking cement . ric : yeah , this seems to be a little more than frat boy antics , anthony , okay ? john lost it . he tried to kill me . he went that far . makes following in daddy 's footsteps all the better , right ? you must be proud . anthony : careful . ric : you have a seriously dangerous blind spot when it comes to that son of yours . anthony : claudia can handle john . ric : you 'd better hope so . because now that you 've shot kate and you 've set this whole plan into motion , that 's a complication that you 're not going to need . anthony : ric , it 's my plan . i am aware of the players , and i know what has to be done . johnny letting off a little steam is not going to affect my plans for co - opting the once great sonny corinthos . ric : yeah , you know , if you are successful in bringing sonny into this organization , you might want to put john on a leash . because if he goes after sonny the way he did me today , one of them is not going to live through it . [ scene_break ] olivia : the smartest girl in the world and you 're still stupid over that guy . oh , i tried to warn you he was dangerous , but you always thought -- well , you knew i was jealous that sonny fell in love with you . probably made my warnings pretty easy to ignore , right ? but , uh , see , the thing -- the thing i loved about sonny was the thing that scared you away . you know , that danger , that feeling like anything could happen . scared you right off to princeton , but you made your dreams come true . yeah , you should have stayed there , connie -- katherine hardwicke howard . you should have stayed there in your snobby world with your made up name . you should have run and not walked when you saw sonny corinthos again because no matter how that man gets to you , he is dangerous . heck , if you want to wreck your life over sonny corinthos , you go right ahead , but i will be damned if i let you drag my kid down with you . [ knock on door ] olivia : yeah ? diane : hi , i 'm diane miller . i 'm a friend of your cousin 's . olivia : olivia falconeri . nice to meet you . diane : we did n't get a chance to formally meet at the ceremony . olivia : yeah , there was n't a lot of time for introductions . you know , a real friend would have talked her out of this . [ diane chuckles ] diane : yeah , well , believe me , i tried , right up until the moment that she was going to walk down the aisle . kate : diane , is that you ? diane : hi . oh , it 's true what they say , you know , you can not keep a good woman down . kate : thank you for coming . diane : the doctors assure me that you are going to make a full recovery . and i am so glad because the world of fashion can not keep spinning without you . this woman right here is a woman of vision . her seminal layouts have set the bar for the entire industry . and my personal favorite -- when she broke a fabulous shoe designer , christian cartullo . [ cell phone rings ] olivia : i got to take this . dante , are you all right ? it 's a reflex when you 're son calls unexpectedly . you what ? [ olivia sighs ] [ scene_break ] kate : diane , i need you to be completely honest with me . did andrei karpov shoot me because sonny is still in the mob ? [ scene_break ] man : everything i got , i owe to you , mr. corinthos . you always took good care of me . sonny : i appreciate that you stayed on after the power transferred . um , after my son was shot , i made an unwise choice and i gave jason more responsibility than he could handle , and he 's paralyzed by the leadership . he 's unable to act . i 'm sure you know the russians made a public attempt on my life . they shot my wife - to - be at the altar . jason does n't want to retaliate . makes him look weak , makes everybody vulnerable , so i had no choice but to take over . jason : it 's not going to happen . [ scene_break ] claudia : my personal life is off limits , just like yours . johnny : you can not have anything resembling feelings for ric lansing . claudia : you 're going to tell me what i feel now ? johnny : that guy is half crazy and he 's a user . ask anybody around town about half the crap he 's been involved with . claudia : you know , given the collective mental state of our family , i do n't think any of us is in a position to judge -- present company included . i maybe just saved you from killing ric . give me a break here , john . come on . what would i have done ? how would i explain that to a jury ? a terrifying altercation that you saved me from yet again , what , for the second time this year ? i really do n't think that even i could sell that to a jury . johnny : nice try at a diversion , claudia , but if you care at all for ric lansing , you will end this right now . claudia : that does n't make any sense . johnny : it does make sense because the second that he hurts you , betrays you , or makes you cry , i 'll kill him . [ scene_break ] anthony : what specifically did john do to set you off ? ric : look , the details are n't important . the fact is that john is a loose cannon . he could blow this plan of yours all to hell . anthony : i already moved to the next phase . i went to sonny tonight . i made a very compelling argument for coming to work for us . but as expected , he turned me down , but the seeds have been planted . all they need is time to grow . in the mean time , jason will keep shutting sonny out , and sonny 's pride and his anger will build until he has no choice but to turn to us . and then with sonny as the figurehead , we will take jason and his entire organization down . [ scene_break ] milo : we do n't even work for jason anymore . you ca n't just walk in here . milo : and drink his liquor . max : shut up . i need to think this through , okay ? i ca n't risk getting the boss involved yet . milo : involved in what ? max : when i was visiting dad in sicily , he was so impressed with everything i told him that he 's coming for a visit . milo : wow , good . it 'll be good to see him . max : idiot . i told him i 'm running the port charles mob . milo : whoa . [ scene_break ] diane : there is no question that sonny loves you . there is nothing more important to him than your full and complete recovery , so this is no time to be asking questions like that . there 's plenty of time -- kate : carly would do or say anything to sabotage my relationship with sonny , but still , diane , after all that i 've seen , it hurt . i have to wonder , did i want to believe too much ? diane : look , see , you are just going to upset yourself all over again for no good reason . kate : no good reason ? diane , there is plenty good reason if carly is telling the truth , right ? she told my cousin that karpov shot me because sonny backed out some deal , that it was retaliation . and she implied that sonny never left the mob . it 's not true , diane , right ? carly 's lying . diane : okay , i can tell you this much without betraying attorney / client privilege . sonny may have changed who he does business with , but he has not entirely changed the business he does . [ scene_break ] olivia : i told you , i do not need you to check on me . no , i am your mother and i told you . dante , i do not want you in port charles . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm sorry you had to hear that . i -- i just got nowhere else to turn right now . you created this situation . jason : the men all know what 's at stake , sonny . they know if the organization turns against itself , everybody loses . this is what you wanted . it was your choice . you 're not -- you 're not getting back in . sonny : now is the time to strike . i 'm telling you that right now . tommy , tell them you agree with what i 'm saying , and then -- tommy : i 'm sorry , mr. corinthos , mr. morgan 's in charge . that 's the way you wanted it , and it 's good business for everybody . jason : i 've been in contact with all the other lieutenants . there 's nothing you can do . this is not your organization anymore . sonny : so you 're going -- you 're going to do this to me in the time that i need you most ? i really , really hope one day you do n't regret it . jason : i already do .

though sonny turns down anthony 's offer , he 's confident the former boss will eventually have no choice but to give in to temptation . olivia is sure that he already has and begs kate to reconsider marriage , but kate appears certain of him and also that olivia only asks because she is attracted to him and because she is the mother of sonny 's son . olivia swears her again to secrecy , fearing the boy could be drawn into sonny 's lifestyle . jason once more turns down sonny and learns sonny has been trying to contact his former men who now work for jason . nadine is shaken by falling right in front of nikolas and later assures him their romantic encounter will not change her work or their friendship . he 's bemused . finding ric and claudia together makes johnny go postal . max has told his father he runs the organization , and now , papa is coming for a visit .

carly : michael , i need you to take a second and count to 10 . michael : stop talking down to me . carly : you do n't have to let the anger control you . michael : if you do n't want to see me angry , then back the hell off . [ scene_break ] jason : did you find anything ? sam : no , not yet , but i did leave a message -- jason : sonny told me to back off claudia . sam : he 's protecting her ? jason : you know , she 's the reason that michael got shot . so i do n't care what sonny says or what i have to do -- claudia 's not getting away with this . [ scene_break ] olivia : you know that all i have to do is tell jason that claudia 's responsible for michael getting shot , and she 'll be dead within the hour . jax : you 're not going to do that . olivia : yeah ? try me . jax : the only reason you know the truth is because of me . i will handle this . now , you let dante do his job . once he shuts down the corinthos organization , sonny will go to prison , and claudia will be right beside him . [ scene_break ] johnny : tell me what you did , claudia . tell me what you did to olivia ! claudia : stop it ! what is the matter with you , john ? johnny : you gave her trouble at the metro court , and a few hours later , she broke up with me . tell me what you did ! claudia : nothing . nothing . you 're so much better off . johnny : no , i am not . and neither are you . and let me tell you -- i promise you , you are going to pay for this dearly . [ scene_break ] sam : if we ca n't come up with some sort of physical evidence that ties claudia to dr. devlin , i 'm afraid we 're not going to be able to prove that she was involved at all . jason : okay . just answer me this question . do you think that claudia is innocent ? sam : ohh . i do n't know , okay ? she 's dangerous , clearly , and i think she 's a little bit insane like her father , and i do n't think that she has a conscience , but i do believe that she could have easily been involved in michael 's shooting . but it does n't make a difference what i think or not . without any proof , we ca n't do anything . so i 'm going to take a page from your playbook here and just reserve absolutely no judgment . jason : i 'm just -- i 'm too close to this . i ca n't even be objective . every time i think about michael getting shot , and i see that bitch claudia walking around pretending to feel sympathy , it 's a -- [ clatters ] jason : i think it 's a joke . i 've got to stop her . [ scene_break ] jax : no one has ever gotten deeper into the corinthos organization than your son . he 's about to bring them all down . claudia 's so entrenched in sonny 's business , she 's going to go to prison , too . olivia : and if she goes , johnny goes , too . jax : well , not necessarily . but if it happens , johnny knew the risk . [ olivia sighs ] olivia : i 'm just so afraid that if sonny finds out about dante , it 's going to ruin dante 's life , jax . jax : you 're protecting your son by breaking up with johnny and making claudia think that she 's winning . okay ? you 're buying your son time to do his job . and claudia 's so focused on hurting you , she does n't really know what 's going on . olivia : yes . i begged him , jax . i begged him to find another case , to find another syndicate to bring down , but he would n't do it . and now , because my kid is so good at his job , he 's about to find out that the criminal that he 's actually chasing is his father . [ scene_break ] carly : you know we were n't talking about you in a negative way . we 're on your side . i have no doubt that you can control this anger , michael . michael : let go of me . carly : i 'll let go of you when i know you 're okay . i get that you 're upset , but you do n't have to fall apart . it 's a choice right now . michael : okay . michael : i 'm good . i 'm good . morgan : you did it . you did n't flip out . molly : congratulations . michael : i did n't mean to scare you guys , okay ? i 'm sorry . carly : hey , you just shut down a rage episode . give yourself a little credit . after you clean up that broken glass . michael : sure . morgan : i 'll get a dustpan . kristina : you seemed pretty cool when we were in mexico . what 's so different here ? michael : i mean , i just -- i was in charge of my own life , you know ? nobody expected anything , and i could just live . carly : so you feel like that here , huh ? michael : i know you guys all love me , and i love you , too . it 's just i have all these things inside , and the tiniest thing can set me off . molly : so what 's inside ? memories ? michael : yeah , and i mean , i ca n't make sense of them at all . i ca n't control them , and they 're coming back faster and faster now . molly : man , that must be very disconcerting . michael : yeah , it 's weird . and it just makes me mad , and then , i lose control and then do something stupid . morgan : i have an idea . carly : we 're listening . morgan : why do n't you tell us everything you do remember , and then , we 'll help you sort it all out ? that way , you wo n't be so mad . [ scene_break ] claudia : you ca n't blame me because olivia broke up with you . maybe she found some other young stud to get her sick fantasies off -- johnny : no , no , no . actually , she said she was in love with your husband . claudia : what did she say about sonny -- johnny : i said she said she was in love with your husband , and that it was unfair to lead me on . claudia : how is that my fault ? johnny : because it 's a pack of lies that you 're forcing her to tell . claudia : you know what 's pathetic ? the way that olivia still holds a torch for my husband . johnny : oh , please . claudia : he made his choice . he wants to be with me . and that rusty old cougar is not a threat to anyone . johnny : heh . you sure about that , kid ? claudia : yeah , i am . dominic : you know , i 'm just going to let you two fight this out . claudia : dominic , please , do n't . i hate to see my brother this upset . maybe we could all just have a drink and calm down . johnny : oh , come on . a drink 's not going to solve anything , claudia . you did this . you destroyed the most important thing in my life . dominic : look , i think you had a tough break tonight , but i really do n't see how your sister 's involved . claudia : it does n't make sense , john . why ? why would i tell olivia , make her break up with you , when i know how she feels about sonny ? not that i 'm worried about it , but why do i want some hooker sniffing around my husband ? johnny : come on , claudia . because you do this . you get mad , and you make choices that are impulsive , that hurt people , innocent people who ca n't defend themselves . claudia : i 'm sorry . i do n't know what you 're talking about right now , johnny . johnny : you do n't think things through , claudia . you do n't think about who may be in the wrong place at the wrong time . is that right ? so i 'm giving you one chance to make this right -- one chance to tell me what you know about olivia and how you forced her to break up with him . [ scene_break ] jax : let me help you , okay ? i 'll transfer you to another hotel for a while . there 's no reason for you to stay in town and watch the collapse of the corinthos empire . olivia : i 'm not leaving dante . jax : all right . fine . if you 're not going to leave , the best thing for you to do is just let it play out . i mean , there 's a good chance that you and dante will walk away from this without a scratch , right ? olivia : always , the optimist , jax . [ chuckles ] jax : no reason to expect the worst in any situation , is there ? olivia : you know , i spent my whole life trying to protect my kid from the mob , and now look where he is . he 's deeper in than any cop has ever been . jax : he 's exactly where he wants to be . olivia : i know that , but i just -- i know that claudia 's got another move up her sleeve . i can just feel it . jax : maybe . but if you tell sonny the truth , she loses her power over you , and his focus will be shifted somewhere else . believe me , she does not want that . olivia : i never meant to hurt anyone , you know , certainly not dante . and not johnny , either . i just -- i never meant to care about him this much . you know ? it was just supposed to be a stupid fling or some romantic adventure . but he just -- he gets to me , jax . i ca n't explain it , you know ? he just makes me feel like anything 's possible . i ca n't believe i 'm going to let that psycho bitch take him away from me .

' `` lucky : you calling me a fool , father ? luke : is n't there something in here about not looking a wee gift horse in the mouth ? lucky : if there 's a god , why is there evil in this world ? tell me that . you know , starving children , fires and destruction , ambushes in a dark alley when all any decent man can do is defend himself . luke : ah . here we are in `` jeremiah . `` `` and i will gather the remnants of my flock together from all the countries , and i will bring them again into the fold , `` whether they want me to or not . lucky : what about personal responsibility , then ? you know , getting into a scrape , and then getting out of it on your own ? luke : `` a wise man follow the instructions of his father . `` lucky : my parents taught me well -- to rely on no one , even if they 're wearing a collar . luke : `` the journey 's too far for you . `` and you must repent . lucky : if you 're going to quote something , i 'd rather hear football scores . honestly . luke : ohh . you 're a hard case , ronan o'reilly . guard , i 'm afraid he 's a harder case than i thought . but i still think that we can save his poor and tortured soul if the two of us could do a little bit of praying in a real church . now , there 's a sweet , small , wee chapel around the corner . i 'd like to take him there . robin : yeah . i do n't know if stone was a vision or a dream , but he helped me . he helped me hold on for emma . and he also made me realize that blaming patrick for everything is n't necessarily a good thing , that i need to understand what went wrong . brenda : well , sure , but what went wrong is some crazy woman seduced your husband . robin : yeah , but let 's be honest . patrick was not marriage material . i knew that from the beginning . brenda : yeah , but he 's still responsible for what he did . anyway , who cares about patrick ? i want to hear how you feel . robin : how i feel ? brenda : yeah . robin : i 'm sad . i 'm confused . before i went to africa , i spent a lot of time thinking about stone , and i shut patrick out . brenda : yeah , but he -- it 's still his fault , too . robin : i know . but there 's always two sides to every story . brenda : mmm . well , i ca n't stand him already . robin : i could n't stand him at first , either . but you know what ? patrick is a good father , and just because we love each other does n't mean that we should spend the rest of our lives together . can we just not talk about this right now ? brenda : i have a really , really good idea . let 's talk a lot about me .

[ laughs ] robin : well , you come visit . but i 'm so happy you 're here . i 'm it worried about you , though . brenda : no , no . do n't worry about me . jason is the best bodyguard . do n't tell him i said that . robin : oh , believe me , i could never get involved in your relationship with jason . brenda : robin , wait . i 'm sorry . jason . you -- remember this . you er somebody who never listens to you and orders you around all the time . robin : o aro well , then , i just have more question . brenda : what ? robin : have you seen sonny ? sonny : well , who ? do we have to reach to get the case just find a way , diane . thank you . jax : well , well , well . i see it 's buss as usual . sonny : i 'm sorry , jax . i 'm busy right now . jax : well , i 'll keep it brief . sonny : ok . jax : brenda 's in town . leave her alone . brenda : i saw sonny in rome . robin : how did that happen ? brenda : i do n't know . how did that happen ? he said he got my email and my phone number from you . [ robin chuckles ] brenda : you know , when i saw him , it seemed like we 'd been away from each other for hours rather than eight years . robin : him , so you got along ? brenda : it was really good . we talked , and he said good - bye , and that was it . i actually did n't think i was going to see him again . robin : but here you are . you 're back in port charles . brenda : i went over there bit away to tell him i was going to be here for a while , and that i was going to avoid him for all the right reasons . and sonny pops a bottle of champagne and can get it right this time . robin : well , maybe you can . i mean , is that what you want ? brenda : i do n't know what i want . i know what i do n't want . i do n't want to get hurt again , happening . robin : that 's what happened before , and for reasons that no longer apply . you 're free now . so is he . maybe it will actually work out this time . brenda : do you know how many times i 've cried over sonny ? i mean , strung out , curled up in a ball , ca n't eat , ca n't sleep , ca n't move , and then , finally just -- i do n't feel anything , over anything . robin : maybe he was too much for you before . maybe you actually needed time away to grow up , figure things out . you 've done so many wonderful things with your life . maybe you 're ready now . jax : brenda 's built a good life for herself . have the decency nofor sonny : you see , here 's what happened . i got home yesterday . brenda was in my home , ok , waiting for me . and we had champagne . we chatted . and -- very nice . the bullets start flying , is n't that it ? sonny : what are you doing here ? are n't you married ? off again ? sonny : again ? i do n't know . whatever . does carly know where you 're at ? jax : oh , i 'm a fool . sonny : yes . jax : because here , i thought that , you know , with everything your kids have been through lately , that maybe , just maybe , you 're ready to take some responsibility , to realize that you are an ongoing threat . i first . sonny : let me give you a word of advice . i know this is hard for you , ok ? but you go home , and you take care of your wife , and i 'll do my brenda .

[ exhales deeply ] what 's going on ? carly : before i even say anything , you are taking your medication , right ? sonny : yeah . carly : it 's a fair question . because if you 're not , you should n't be involved at all . sonny : well , you were there when i took the first dosage , and i 've been taking it ever since . and you , out of anybody , should know , 'cause i 'm not really , you know , yelling , losing my temper , and all that . but i am worried , because how does this affect our family ? carly : it 's about morgan . morgan : whoa , whoa , whoa , fellas , fellas , fellas . let 's put that , like , right over here , all right ? location of the couch is pretty key . it needs to be , you know , a position for easy access . ava : [ chuckles ] morgan : yeah . ava : okay , well , thank you so much , gentlemen , for your very prompt delivery . sure thing . just hope your son takes it easier on you than he did on us . ava : what ? ! morgan : oh , come on , ava . ava : [ chuckles ] morgan : come on . ava : [ clears throat ] he thinks you 're my son . [ chuckles ] it 's -- well , seriously , why would n't he ? i mean , if you do the math , you 're actually younger than my daughter . [ chuckles ] morgan : yeah , but age -- age is just a number . ava : [ clears throat ] some numbers are more relevant than others , morgan . morgan : all right , well , do n't let one dumbass make you think that you have oedipus complex . ava : jocasta complex , actually . morgan : what ? ava : read a book . morgan : or -- or ... i could help you christen this place . ava : [ sighs ] derek : i 'm -- i 'm sorry , but , uh , did miss jerome leave a forwarding address ? it 's really important that i get in touch with her . well , you could try the desk . but i doubt it . she kind of left in a hurry . derek : oh , thank you . i 'll -- i 'll find her myself . [ sighs ] ava : morgan . morgan , we c -- hey , we ca n't -- [ chuckles ] we can not do this . you are my daughter 's husband . morgan : who cares , all right ? kiki 's probably off having sex with my brother right now . who 's she to judge us ? ava : well , there are other ways to deal with loss and disappointment other than crawling into bed together . morgan : well , that 's too late , 'cause we already crawled into bed , and we 've tried the floor , so i think it 's time that we try the couch . ava : see , we 're not -- [ chuckles ] we 're not even trying to be discreet here . morgan : what ? i think we 're a little bit past discretion , i mean , considering kiki , michael , and my mom -- ey all know that we 're sleeping together . ava : i know . that 's my point exactly . your -- your mother 's already on a warpath . morgan : look , this is our own little world . no one knows we 're here . why do we have to be miserable when we make each other feel so good ? [ cell phone vibrating ] ava : you 've reached ava jerome . leave a message . [ beep ] derek : ava , where the hell are you ? and who 's this , uh , young kid you 're mixed up with ? it sure as hell does n't sound like silas clay . look , i do n't know what you 're up to , but we do n't have time for this . you can dodge my calls , but i will track you down . we 've got some business to take care of . luke : what the hell are you doing here ? tracy : were you expecting somebody else ? perhaps , uh , let 's see , holly , uh , skye , anna ? you know , the ones you take on your adventures with you ? the ones that you allow to help you ? luke : this ai n't no pleasure cruise , darling . tracy : do n't i know it . do you expect me to stay home with my knitting while you go off to die ? luke : you knit ? tracy : do n't change the subject . you deliberately left me behind . luke : i was trying to keep you safe , tracy . tracy : well , too bad . too bad . i 'm here . i snuck in because you asked for my assistance . luke : i did ? tracy : you absolutely did . olivia had one of her visions , and ... she saw you in a coffin . luke : were you talking to her about my present physical condition , or was this a spontaneous premonition ? tracy : i did not say one word to her about your polonium poisoning . luke : did she see me dead ? tracy : no . you were in a coffin , but you said something . luke : what message did i convey across the astral plane ? tracy : you said , `` i need spanks . `` note , you did not say , `` i need blaze , english , or slim . `` you said you needed me . luke : when i 'm right , i 'm right . anna : so , look , this is insane , robert . it is not possible that robin is alive . robert : no , no . but it is ! anna : it 's not possible ! robert : it is ! you think of the times that our demise has been greatly exaggerated for whatever reason ! anna : we 're experienced agents ! robert : [ sighs ] anna : we 've been trained in life - threatening situations . robin -- she was a civilian . she was a doctor . she could not have saved herself . robert : we 're survivors . she 's a survivor . she 's carrying on the family tradition . she 's out there . we got to find her . anna : stop , stop , stop . the longer you do this , the worse pain you 're gon na be in when you have to accept that it is n't true . robert : but it is true ! i 've seen her with my own eyes ! anna : stop . stop . duke and i , we came into the room . robin was not in there shackled or otherwise . it was just you . robert : obrecht took her ! robert : step away ! robert : she was about to inject robin with a syringe . she was about to kill her ! i tried to get her out of there . the doctor got the jump on me . robin : dad ! robert : sorry ... robin . robin : what was in the syringe ? what 's in it ? ! robert : the next few moments were a blur , but the next thing i knew , i was lying there helpless while she simply took our daughter away . robin : dad ! robert : i could n't save her . that bitch took her away , and we 've got to find her ! jerry : you 're not thinking of leaving so soon , are you ? robin : stay away from me . jerry : i 'm impressed . how did you manage to get out of your private lab ? robin : i took out your friend dr. obrecht , and i 'm not afraid to do the same to you . jerry : oh , let 's not get ahead of ourselves , shall we ? and -- and what will you do to me , exactly ? you look a little encumbered for hand - to - hand combat . we would n't want to hurt the child , would we ? robin : i 'm not letting you get anywhere near this child . jerry : and we agree . he 's far more comfortable with you . as for that little private trip outside the lab , we had a deal . robin : what more do you want from me ? i 've already developed a treatment for you . jerry : a temporary one . the deal was for a permanent fix , you see . robin : well , i 'm practically done . all my research is already inside . jerry : `` practically done `` is of no use to me . i spent too long as an invalid . i need the cure . that 's the arrangement . robin : screw the arrangement ! let me go right now , or i 'll ... jerry : you 'll do what , dr. scorpio ? robin : i will send your lab into a deep freeze , and you will lose all of my research , and you will never find a cure . please . i have been down this road before . [ sniffles ] and what you think of as hope is not . it 's denial . we create the most elaborate scenarios , and we pin it to the flimsiest evidence . do you understand me ? i know . i 've done it more than once . i do n't want you to make this mistake , okay ? robert : i know what i saw , and i saw it with my own eyes . i spoke with her , anna ! anna : stop it ! robin is dead ! god , i wish to god every day it was n't true , but it is ! you saw her body ! robert : what did i see ? i saw a burned corpse on a table ! that could have been anybody ! anna : oh , well , who was it ? ! they took the wedding ring off her body ! she was in the lab when it exploded ! patrick was right there ! i 'm sorry . it is not possible that she survived . robert : it 's entirely possible when you consider who 's behind all of this , who 's involved with her , who brought duke here to begin with ! it 's entirely possible ! [ monitor beeping ] robin : stay back , or i 'll do it . if my samples are destroyed , you 'll have paid faison all that money for nothing , and you 'll never find a cure . jerry : and do you think pressing that button will accomplish ? robin : oh , i 've kept my eyes and ears open . i know that the cassadines use this room for cryogenics . and if i press this button , hell 's gon na freeze over in there . jerry : are n't you forgetting something ? what about dr. obrecht ? [ laughs ] you forgot the good doctor was still inside , did n't you ? unconscious , unable to save herself . you 're no killer . robin : do n't be so sure . jerry : oh , it takes one to know one . you see , there are certain signs -- an ability to disconnect , a lack of empathy , or being totally irrational , which is clearly not the case with you , dr. scorpio . you 're in full possession of your faculties . robin : you have been holding me for over a year . you have no idea how desperate i am . jerry : not desperate enough to take someone 's life , even if she did hold you hostage . you 're bluffing . robin : no , i 'm not ! jerry : well , then , go ahead , my dear . i dare you . go on . [ alarm buzzes ] luke : got to tell you , i 'm impressed . you busted into the cassadine compound disguised as a guard . that 's no small feat . tracy : if i really am the bonnie to your clyde , you have to realize i can handle myself . do not underestimate me . luke : how 'd you find me in this hellhole , anyway ? tracy : [ chuckles ] it 's a long story . i will tell you when we get out of here . the s.s. lila is anchored off shore . let 's just go . luke : no , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . we ca n't leave . tracy : why not ? luke : because jerry jacks has got a doctor working on a cure . and he 's gon na test it on me . tracy : he 's gon na cure you , too ? luke : not likely . he 's just gon na give me enough to make sure that it does n't kill me . he 's afraid the doctor is trying to kill him . so if i survive it , then he 's going to take the cure himself . tracy : so you 're a guinea pig for a psychopath ? luke : hey , look , i 'm not thrilled about the concept , either , but if i leave here empty - handed , i am a dead man . sonny : well , you know what ? i ca n't really help you with morgan , 'cause he says he hates me and he does n't trust me . carly : okay , that 's not true . sonny : yes , it is . he asked me to do one thing for him -- keep a secret . i could n't do that . carly : well , the truth needed to come out ! not in the way you chose to do it , but ... sonny : and connie said to me , you know , `` you 're gon na hurt both of your sons if you keep the secret . `` and what did i do ? carly : okay , i - i understand that you wanted to support morgan , okay ? that 's why you chose to keep his secret . sonny : right . carly : but , sonny , we do n't want morgan with a girl who does n't love him completely and who 's hung up on his brother . sonny : the truth had to come out eventually . i mean , but the way it did , it was n't good for anybody . carly : no , it was out of control . you were out of control . you were off your meds . and when you got going on that toast , you just could n't stop yourself . but morgan does n't understand how your illness affects you . sonny : he thinks i chose michael over him . carly : well , you got to stop . you got to stop . you ca n't buy into that manipulation ! sonny : well ... carly : michael and morgan are two different boys , okay ? and we parented them differently , mainly because we have to . but we love them equally , and if we buy into morgan 's pity party , it 's gon na hurt him down the road . sonny : okay , it does n't matter what i buy or do n't buy . i 've been trying to call morgan nonstop . he 's not answering . i do n't know where he is . carly : um ... i do n't know where he is , but i know who he 's with . sonny : who ? carly : ava jerome . sonny : what ? carly : that bitch seduced our son . ava : [ breathing heavily ] i can not believe i let you talk me into that again . morgan : [ chuckles ] i do n't remember much talking . ava : i 'm serious . morgan : i am , too . what 's the big deal , ava ? seriously ? you know , if this , whatever this is , is helping me get over kiki and it 's helping you get over silas , then , i mean , is it that bad ? hey . hey . we 've made mistakes , okay ? but we did n't mean to hurt anyone . you need to stop punishing yourself . seriously . you deserve to be happy , too . ava : thank you . morgan : mm - hmm . now , i 'm gon na go check out that shower , 'cause it 's got like four nozzles in there . i want to see that . ava : [ chuckling ] okay . morgan : all right . ava : knock yourself out . morgan : all right . [ sighs ] you want to join me ? there 's plenty of room in there . ava : next time . morgan : all right . [ knock on door ] derek : ava , it 's me . [ knock on door ] derek : ava . open up . i know you 're in there . ava , quit messing around ! [ knock on door ] [ knocking on door ] derek : ava ! ava : [ clears throat ] derek : stop messing around . ava : hey . hey , julian , um , before -- derek : i can see you finally bought the place , huh ? would have been nice if you left me a forwarding address . ava : okay , well , i 'll be better at keeping in touch in the future , okay ? derek : i went to your hotel room . you already checked out . i called you . you did n't answer . finally occurred to me that you must be here . it 's a good thing i 'm such an intrepid detective . i 'd hate to have wasted any more of my night of tracking you down . ava : hey , uh , jules , this really is n't a good time . derek : yeah , i know all about your , uh , boyfriend . but just do n't let that distract you from the main goal . we still have sonny to , uh , take care of . ava : morgan . how long have you been standing there ? morgan : not long . sorry to interrupt . ava : i thought you were taking a shower . morgan : yeah , i was , but i could n't -- could n't find the shampoo . ava : well , i 'm -- i 'm sure i have some right -- right over here . derek : i 'm sorry , miss jerome . i did n't realize you had some , uh ... company . uh , derek wells . ava 's my art dealer . you 're , um , morgan corinthos , are n't you ? morgan : yeah . how 'd you know that ? derek : well , connie falconeri used to work for me , and , uh , i was at the funeral . my condolences . it 's a terrible loss . um , how 's your father doing ? morgan : i do n't know , and i do n't care . derek : problems with the old man ? ava : uh , here 's the shampoo , morgan . i 'm sorry it 's -- it 's a little floral . [ chuckles ] morgan : i 'll manage . thanks . derek : [ sighs ] nice to meet you , morgan . morgan : yeah . derek : [ laughs ] when i heard you were shacking up with some kid , i did n't know it was sonny 's . hmm . sonny : you 're telling me morgan is sleeping with his mother - in - law ? carly : i would n't have believed it if i had n't walked in on them myself . i mean , i did n't see them in the act , thank god , but they were half - dressed , and morgan threw it up in my face that they 're both adults . he does n't see that ava 's manipulating him ! sonny : just when i thought it could n't get any worse for morgan , now ... carly : i tried to get him to come home with me , but he wo n't leave her side . he says that she is the only person who has n't betrayed him ! sonny : he 's lashing out because , you know , his wife left him for his brother , and he blames me for that . carly : i know that , but ava 's taking advantage of the situation ! and morgan , he 's acting like a victim in this whole thing ! he thinks he was justified in lying and that he had every right to marry kiki under false pretenses ! in morgan 's mind , he thinks kiki and michael are the bad guys ! sonny : his heart 's broken , so he ca n't be objective right now . carly : okay , but ava has walked right into the situation , and our son is vulnerable ! she lured him into her bed ! and to what end , sonny ? i am worried sick about our son ! sonny : it 's got to stop . carly : it 's got to stop soon , because the longer she has her claws in him , the harder it 's gon na be for us to rip them out . tracy : you always complicate things , do n't you ? luke : hey , listen , i ca n't leave without the cure . tracy : okay , so then there is only one course of action . we get our hands on the cure before jerry jacks does . luke : how do you suggest we do that ? tracy : i misspoke . we 're not doing anything . i am . luke : wait . tracy . tracy : [ sighs ] luke . luke : you ca n't go off and do something reckless without me . tracy : luke , you ca n't even walk ! and i 'm the one in the lovely disguise , remember ? luke : but this lovely disguise is not gon na last a second glance . baby , come on . you 're no spy . you 're great in the boardroom . but this place takes cutthroat to a whole new level . tracy : i was standing right next to jerry jacks , and he had absolutely no idea . nobody knows i 'm here . i can investigate . luke : spanky -- tracy : oh , do n't `` spanky `` me ! not now ! i am going to get the cure , and then we are going to leave this god - forsaken island . luke : tracy ! be safe . tracy : you , too . [ door closes ] robin : [ sighs ] i do n't understand . nothing happened . jerry : an impressive attempt . i 'll give you that , doctor . luckily for your colleague , dr. obrecht , the cryogenics technology was moved to make room for your private lab . robin : [ exhales deeply ] no . [ exhales deeply ] jerry : oh , come on . do n't be so disappointed . you prove to be more ruthless than i expected . your parents would be so proud . [ monitor beeping ] anna : you think faison faked robin 's death ? robert : he 's quite capable of it . i mean , he 's done it before with other people . anna : she was here when duke was here ? robert : it all adds up . robin and duke are here . faison -- he 's out there pretending to be your boyfriend , and no one 's any the wiser . anna : [ sniffles ] oh , god . robert : what ? anna : faison thought someone was on to him . robert : what do you mean ? anna : duke told me that faison was furious because someone had figured out who he was . [ sniffles ] and when duke asked , faison said , no , he was n't referring to me . at the time , the only person i thought it could be was robin because she 's the only one who knew duke well enough that she would be able to realize that fais was an impostor . robert : is it remotely possible that you 're giving me the benefit of the doubt ? dr. obrecht : teufel ! you petulant , little girl ! jerry : no , no , no . now , come on . dr. scorpio got the better of you , fair and square . dr. obrecht : she tried to escape with my grandson ! jerry : well , then are n't you fortunate that i arrived in time to detain them both ? despite her valiant efforts , robin is n't going home just yet . until she provides me the cure , everyone in port charles will continue to believe she 's dead . ben : [ whimpering ] robin : shh , shh . tracy : [ sighs ] sonny : i 'm with you here , carly . believe me . this thing with ava and morgan , it 's wrong , it 's messy , and who 's gon na get hurt ? our son . carly : then let 's go get him . sonny : what do you want to do ? grab him by the ear and then drag him out here ? he 's over 18 . carly : well , what the hell are you saying ? we just sit back and we let it play out ? sonny , we do n't even know where he is ! sonny : i promise you i will track them down , and when i find them , we have to play this smart , because the way morgan 's feeling , the fact is , we do n't like ava . he 's just gon na stay with her because of that . carly : i know , okay ? i know . i see that . i just ... it 's easy for you to be detached . you did n't walk in , i mean , ava barely in a robe , morgan half- dressed . it 's a picture i do n't want in my head . sonny : okay , look , we got to think about morgan , and what we got to do with this is , we ca n't push him away any further . you understand what i 'm saying ? carly : yes , i know ! we have to hope that he sees what a huge mistake he 's making . okay , i get it . sonny : let 's hope . now , i got to -- i got to get down to business here . carly : you -- you and shawn , you guys , um ... you seem really intense . everything okay ? sonny : we 're just trying to figure out who attacked my shipment , and i need to send a message . you do n't cross me . and i want to give that jackass derek wells a headline reminding people who 's in charge of this town . [ clicks tongue ] [ knock on door ] sonny : yeah . shawn : oh , thought you 'd be done . i 'll come back . sonny : no . carly : no , i 'm -- he 's all yours . see you later . sonny : what 's going on ? shawn : well , our men on the street do n't have any firm details yet , but they 're keeping their ears to the ground . sonny : good . shawn : good . anything else ? sonny : yeah , i want you to do something for me personally . i want you to track down ava jerome . ava : listen , this is n't what you think . derek : oh , i think it 's pretty impressive , sis . i admire your dedication , your , uh , creativity . ava : what ? derek : yeah , well , you tried to marry kiki into the corinthos family . that did n't pan out , so you , uh , went after the boy yourself . ava : no , that 's -- [ chuckles ] that is not what this is . derek : whoa , whoa , you 're not starting to have feelings for the , uh , for the boy , are you ? ava : of course not . derek : [ chuckles ] forget it . i 'm kidding . i 'm kidding . i know you better than that . well , uh , i guess i 'll leave you to it . and , uh , keep up the good , um -- what 's it called ? -- work . anna : you have to stop this , robert . i 'm not gon na let you take us down this rabbit hole again ! i 'm not ! robert : i see the look in your eye . you feel it in your gut . anna : [ sobs ] robert : you know she 's alive . you 've never given up on robin . anna : oh , stop it ! [ monitor beeping ] anna : it 's been so hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that she 's gone . i ca n't process it . i ca n't accept the fact that she 's gone . that does n't mean she 's alive , though ! robert : she is alive . anna : oh , stop it . i 'm not gon na let you do this . i am not gon na let grief cloud my judgment . because that 's how faison got to me in the first place . robert : okay . anna : i was so blinded by missing robin that i could n't see what was right in front of me . robert : i 'm not looking for a leap of faith . i know the truth . and i 'll prove it to you . you go out and find me obrecht , and you 're gon na find our daughter . anna : [ sighs ] jerry : no , no , no . the excitement 's over . off you go . back to work . dr. obrecht : or you can kill her right now . jerry : and deprive your grandson of a babysitter ? we 've never been closer to our goal . inside . now . go . the treatment will be ready any time now . and it will all be over . ben : [ crying ] robin : let me out ! let me out ! [ door closes ] derek : [ sighs ] what now ? can i help you ? carly : you sure can . you can tell me where the hell i find ava jerome . morgan : ava ? you , uh , you finish your talk with that guy ? ava : oh , yes . my client made it quite clear what he needs from me . morgan : you know , it 's funny , because you said that guy was here to buy art , but i could have sworn i heard him mention my father . sonny : stay on it , max . yeah , listen , id'ing that family 's head is top priority . i just want to find out who 's moving against me . [ knock on door ] sonny : yeah ! shawn : hey . i 've got news . sonny : yeah ? tell me . shawn : did some digging , reached out to a few sources . sonny : uh - huh . shawn : i know where you can find morgan and ava . ava : what do you mean , your -- your father ? morgan : well , when i came back to get the shampoo , that guy , you know , before i saw him , i heard him say something about taking care of sonny . what was that all about ? anna : finding obrecht is easier said than done . she 's wanted for several crimes in port charles . she tried to kill duke . robert : is he all right ? anna : well , yeah . he is . he recovered . but she gave him propofol , enough to kill him , the same as you . and her latest crime is she 's kidnapped a child . robert : yes . she 's kidnapped our child . anna : [ sighs ] robin : let me out ! let me out , please ! ben : [ crying ] robin : i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . it 's okay . they 're not gon na let us out . i 'm sorry . it 's okay . it 's okay . dr. obrecht : i still say a wiser course of action would be to finish off the doctor . i could complete her research . jerry : and why should i trust you ? it was your incompetence that almost let her get away . dr. obrecht : i underestimated her cunning . i will not do that again . jerry : let me deal with her . do n't you have somewhere to be ? dr. obrecht : of course . there 's someone who needs to know about the birth of my grandson . anna : i was in the middle of tracking obrecht , you know , uh , when we got the call that you were awake . i mean , i had n't made much progress . she already hopped a plane , and she vanished . robert : so let 's get back on the trail . she 's got robin . huh ? anna : no ! i need proof before i go down this road ! robert : so , where you gon na go for answers if the trail 's cold , huh ? [ monitor beeping ] anna : to someone who can lead us right to obrecht . robert : her boss . anna : i have to see faison . dr. obrecht : i must see faison . luke : did you find it ? did you get the cure ? tracy : no . i could n't see the doctor because jerry jacks and that german woman were there the whole time . luke : if he 's hanging out down there , the drug must be almost ready . tracy : that 's what i heard him say . luke : well , if he 's between us and the doctor , how are we gon na get our hands on the medicine ? tracy : we 're not . we 're gon na let it come to us . luke : what do you mean ? tracy : you said that jerry jacks is gon na come here and give you the cure when it 's ready . so , when he comes ... luke : we 'll be waiting to strike . [ chuckles ] you are full of surprises . [ chuckles ] anna : thank you , yes . i 'll be there first thing in the morning . yeah . thank you . [ sighs ] i 'm in to see faison . robert : they 're holding him at steinmauer ? anna : yeah . he has no chance of escape . he has n't seen anyone in months , so maybe he 'll be ready to talk . robert : good . let 's get to it . anna : what are you doing ? you just got out of being in a coma , robert . robert : 12 months . i 'm bored ! anna : stop . no . robert : i 'm not letting you go to see faison on your own . he has a hold over you . anna : that was a long time ago . i have nothing but contempt for faison . he makes my skin crawl . i will be fine . you stay here with mac . robert : mac does n't know about robin . anna : we do n't know about robin . do n't tell mac or patrick or emma -- no one . you understand ? robert : mac can be trusted . anna : it 's not about trust . i know what it feels like to get your hopes up only to have them crushed . robert : we 're gon na keep this to ourselves ? anna : until we know for sure robin is alive . robin : come here . there you go . there you go .

alexis : since i made them . julian : with ... ? alexis : i 'm having dinner with ned . ned : is this seat taken ? monica : well , as a matter of fact , yes , it is -- by my date , who is , uh , awol at the moment . maxie : i 'm really glad that i came on this date . i 'm having a good time . nathan : me , too . can i talk you in to some dessert ? judge walters : i 'd advise you both to just get the check . maxie : good evening , your honor . nathan : judge walters . judge walters : mind if i join you ? maxie : [ scoffs ] nina : um ... silas : what the hell 's going on ? nina : what do you mean ? silas : what do i mean ? what do i mean ? first i see franco running out of here , and then i see you bolting after him in hot pursuit and not in your wheelchair ! carly : sonny , we 're doing the right thing . i mean , i know it 's gon na be difficult , but , in the end , this is the best thing for michael , okay ? sonny : are you trying to convince me or yourself ? carly : franco can be unpredictable . he 's a better ally than enemy . franco . wh- what are you doing here ? franco : i was looking for you . elizabeth : do you remember something else ? jason : yeah . i remember a name . elizabeth : [ distorted voice ] you chose not to parent jake , just like you chose not to be with me . elizabeth : you remember a name ? that 's good . what is it ? jason : jake ? elizabeth : what did you say ? jason : jake . yo s au2w elizabeth : why did you say , `` jake `` ? what do you mean by that ? elizabeth : [ distorted voice ] and he 's just being kept alive by machines right now . jason : i remember , um ... elizabeth : what ? what do you remember ? jason : i - i remember jake . sam : wow . nothing really gets by you , does it ? yes , yes , you are absolutely right . there is only one bed here . patrick : this room is not meant for two people . i mean , well , technically , it is , if those two people are ... but we 're not , so ... sam : stop . there 's an easy fix for this . patrick : what ? sam : just give me a second . hi . this is sam morgan in room 817 . yeah . i was wondering if you could bring up a cot . um [ chuckles ] a cot . it 's like a really uncomfortable rolling bed . a cot . how do you say , `` cot `` in dutch ? patrick : [ dutch accent ] `` cot . `` sam : [ clears throat ] um , a cot . c - o - t. cot . okay . thank you . no cot . nina : you 've see me stand before . remember when i showed you ? silas : yeah , for a moment or two ... at best . i 've even seen you take the occasional step . each time required a herculean effort , or so that 's what you led me to believe . nina : but i 'm making progress . si , this is good news . silas : progress would be walking slowly across the room , mostly likely with the aid of a crutch or a cane ... nina : okay . i know you want some answers . silas : ... not a full - on sprint through the hospital ! you know what that suggests to me , nina ? nina : can i explain ? silas : it suggests to me you do n't need a wheelchair at all , so you tell me how this works -- how you go from being wheelchair - bound in one moment to a full - on sprint on two healthy legs the next . carly : how did you know i would be here ? franco : fiancé 's intuition . something told me that you 'd be here -- the same ... thing that ... told me that sonny would be here with you . maxie : please , make yourself at home . judge walters : i will . maxie : 'cause why would n't i want to spend time with the judge who wo n't let me see my daughter ? judge walters : look , i know i 'm not your favorite person . i 'd be baffled if i was . but to be fair , i made that decision in part because you lied to the court , as did you , detective . nathan : so , uh , what brings you out tonight ? judge walters : dinner with a friend . i spotted the two of you across the room , and i just thought , `` well , why not come over and say hello ? `` maxie : well , hello . judge walters : i also came over to express my relief . i read about what happened to you downstate . is it true that the two of you were almost killed ? maxie : it is . nathan : quite the adventure . judge walters : and at any time during this adventure , did you ever stop to think about what effect your demise might have on your child ? monica : do n't look at me like that . ned : like what ? monica : the way you 're looking ! ned : i ca n't help it ! i 'm just proud of you for putting yourself out there again . it 's time . monica : well , it never would have occurred to me . when alan died , i thought that part of my life was over . ned : but ... ? monica : but gail and audrey would n't let up . for ages , they kept hounding me to go out with this one or that one , and ... so , finally , i 'm here . ned : here you are . as it turns out ... i 'm doing a little dating myself . julian : whoa . whoa , whoa , whoa . plans with ned ? what are you doing -- playing the field ? alexis : is that an option ? just kidding . relax . julian : you know what ? alexis : we 're just getting together to talk . julian : what 's his phone number ? alexis : why ? julian : because we 're gon na have a little chat . better yet , i 'm gon na do this face - to - face , man - to - prepster , and make it clear to him where he stands with you . alexis : no , you are not going to call or face - to - face ned , okay ? because the big deal here is that we 're gon na just talk about that dating probably is not a good idea and that we like each other very much as friends . julian : mm - hmm . you sure there 's nothing more to it ? alexis : yes . julian : yes , you 're sure , or yes , there 's more ? alexis : ooh . julian has a jealous streak . julian : i 'm not jealous . alexis : really ? then why do you care what i do with ned ? julian : i just do n't want him to get the wrong idea . you know what else i do n't want ? alexis : what ? julian : you ... away from me for one second more than is absolutely necessary . alexis : i am not gon na be gone for very long . julian : screw that . ned can wait . nathan : that is in no way fair . what maxie went through has no bearing on her ability as a mother . judge walters : does n't it ? maxie : i am always thinking about georgie , okay ? there 's not a moment that goes by that my daughter is not on my mind . but this situation was out of my control . i was kidnapped . judge walters : yes , by your own fiancé . maxie : what -- so that makes it my fault ? he was a con man , for god 's sakes -- the polar opposite of the person that i thought i fell in love with . judge walters : `` thought `` being the operative word . nathan : no disrespect intended , but it sounds like you 're blaming the victim . judge walters : our choices mean something , detective . they reflect on our character , our judgment . nathan : what about maxie 's choices now ? the criminal , peter harrell jr. , a.k.a . levi dunkleman -- he 's out of the picture . maxie 's picking up the pieces . maxie : i 'm moving on . judge walters : with detective west ? maxie : well , i mean , that 's a little too soon to say , but , yes , we are on a date . nathan : our first date . judge walters : first and last . monica : and who , pray tell , has managed to catch your eye this time ? anybody i know ? ned : you could say that . i 've been seeing alexis davis again . alexis : that was ... julian : yeah . tell me about it . alexis : i have to take another shower . julian : why ? alexis : because i 'm meeting with ned . julian : you have to take a shower for the guy you 're kicking to the curb ? alexis : well , you know what they say . julian : remind me . alexis : always leave them wanting more . julian : well , i know i do ! carly : um ... i ran in to sonny here . franco : oh . yeah , right . i figured . carly : i mean , after what happened to michael last night , we both had the same instinct -- you know , to check on him . franco : yeah . my god . your son is almost murdered . of course your natural instinct would be to check on him . carly : right . that -- that 's why we 're here . franco : where 's michael ? sonny : let us worry about our son , franco . carly : sonny thought that it would be a good idea if michael got out of the public eye for a little while . franco : he 's not in any kind of danger , is he ? carly : no . i - i mean , we hope not , you know , but it 's better to be safe than sorry . franco : right . did he argue about that ? carly : he was n't crazy about the idea , but , after a while , he realized that it was probably a good idea . franco : so , how long is he gone for ? sonny : as long as necessary . franco : oh , good . good . good . [ exhales sharply ] 'cause , you know , the last thing we need around here is more bloodshed . elizabeth : can you think of a reason why jake came to mind ? [ monitor beeping ] jason : uh ... i 'm not sure . elizabeth : is it you ? are you jake ? patrick : it 's not a problem . sam : right . patrick : i 'm a doctor . i 'm used to sleeping in uncomfortable places . make it an art form . sam : what ? patrick : hotel room in amsterdam -- way more comfortable than the bench at the locker room at gh . sam : wait a minute . i hope you do n't think i was suggesting that -- patrick : i 'm just gon na sleep right here on the floor . sam : are you crazy ? patrick : what are you talking about ? it 's gon na be fine . plus i do n't see a pool table here anywhere , so you ca n't hustle me to get into bed . no , this is an executive decision . you -- bed , me -- floor . it 's gon na be great . you 'll see . nina : you saw all that with franco ? silas : i saw enough . nina : okay . [ inhales deeply ] okay . well , there 's , um , no hiding it . i 've been keeping something from you . silas : would that be `` keeping something from me `` or `` lying to my face `` ? ! nina : okay . okay . listen , can we just -- can we talk about this in private , please ? silas : not until you tell me the truth . nina : i 'm embarrassed enough as it is . please , let 's not make a spectacle of this . please , can we just talk somewhere in private and then i 'll tell you everything you want to know ? ned : okay . `` the equalizer . `` olivia : hey , there , monica . monica : olivia , hi . olivia : hi . ned : good to see you . olivia : it 's good to see you , too . um , can i get you two anything at all ? monica : oh , no . i 'm not having dinner with ned . i mean , i have a date . ned : no . no , no . we 're not having dinner . olivia : oh . okay . i ... ned : in fact , i need to get a table of my own . do n't stay out too late . monica : back at you . olivia : monica , if i can get anything for you , just let me know . monica : thank you . thank you . olivia : okay . can you just give me 10 seconds while i get the foot out of my mouth ? ned : [ laughing ] okay . olivia : god , ned ! i did n't mean to imply the two of you were on a date . i just thought that after what you told me before that maybe it was possible . ned : i understand . it 's fine . olivia , it 's okay . olivia : god , what is wrong with me ? it seems like every time i see you , i 'm either saying something stupid or tripping all over your feet at the gym . ned : i 'm not complaining . it made for a very interesting workout . olivia : yes , it did . so , um , i guess you 're waiting for alexis . ned : yeah , i 'm supposed to be . olivia : oh , my god . the two of you should go see `` the equalizer . `` ned : so , you saw it ? olivia : oh , ned , it is so good . i mean , denzel -- well , you know , he always delivers . they should call his next movie `` the deliverer . `` ned : `` the delivery . `` olivia : `` special delivery `` ! ned : `` deliverance `` ! olivia : they already did that one . ned : oh , yes . that was a great flick . olivia : mm . ned : okay . `` the equalizer . `` olivia : mm - hmm . ned : ca n't wait to see it . i 'll definitely be seeing it without alexis because she does n't do blockbusters . if the movie does n't have subtitles , it 's trash . olivia : well , i guess the lady 's got taste . ned : she 's got something . olivia : well , you know , if you really did n't have anyone to see `` the equalizer `` with , i would , uh -- i would go see it again ... i mean , if you think that 'd be okay with alexis . alexis : okay . the shower 's all yours . ned : i 'm still not sure why we could n't shower together . alexis : because you know what would have happened , and i really , really have to go . julian : yeah . yeah . see you later . alexis : [ chuckles ] [ cell phone rings ] alexis : god . hey , honey . i 'm sorry . i am so sorry i did n't get back to you . i do n't know where the time went . sam : no , mom . it 's fine . alexis : uh , i talked to julian . sam : i just wanted to make sure you had n't fallen and could n't get up . alexis : ha ha . you want to know what i found out or not ? sam : actually , there 's no need . alexis : i asked julian if he was in the wyndemere stables with luke the night of nikolas ' engagement party , and he assured me that he was n't . so , you can take that theory right off the table . sam : wait . actually ... alexis : what ? sam : ... patrick and i heard something different from tracy quartermaine . alexis : how different ? sam : she said that she saw luke in the stables with julian that night , so either tracy is lying or -- alexis : or julian is . julian : julian is what ? alexis : sam , i got to go . julian : so , what did our daughter have to say ? alexis : you lying son of a bitch ! [ sighs ] nina : [ sighs ] should we sit down ? silas : sure . oh . i mean , unless you need it . nina : knock yourself out . silas : you have n't needed it for a while , have you ? nina : no . silas : why did n't you tell me ? i mean , and do n't feed me some line of bull about wanting it to be a surprise . nina : that 's not the reason . i was scared . silas : of ... ? nina : what you would do ... when you found out that i was better . i was afraid that you would leave me and go back to sam . patrick : i 'm done with the bathroom if you need to use it . sam : no , i 'm good . patrick : okay . what time is it ? sam : late . or early , i guess , depending how you look at it . patrick : well , i guess we should get some sleep , huh ? got a big day tomorrow . sam : yeah . patrick : [ groans ] sam : hey , are you sure you do n't want a pillow or something ? patrick : nope . nope . i 'm good . i got everything i need down here . sam : except a bed . patrick : [ chuckles ] just throw something at me if i start snoring , okay ? i wo n't be offended . sam : okay . good night , patrick . patrick : good night , sam . elizabeth : it obviously feels familiar to you . do you think jake is your name ? jason : i do n't remember . elizabeth : well , it 's a good one . i had a son named jake . jason : you had ? elizabeth : he died . jason : i 'm sorry . how old ? elizabeth : he was only 4 . he was , um ... playing with his trucks . he loved -- he loved anything with wheels . i 'm telling you , that kid was fearless -- a mother 's worst nightmare , really , 'cause i 'd spend my days just worrying about him skinning his little knees if he went too fast on his scooter or bonking his head as he would climb over the banister . i always kept such a close eye on him ... except for those 30 seconds . that 's all that took him -- just 30 seconds for my baby to wander out into the street . jason : i am sorry . i 'm sorry for your loss . carly : why do n't we go home and you can tell me about your day ? franco : oh , my day was great . i had a really productive day . carly : great ! well , let 's go . come on . franco : you know what ? i 'm not in a rush , carly . in fact , i 'm in the opposite of a rush . i 'd like to stay . i 'd like to talk to sonny for a little bit , if you do n't mind . carly : why ? franco : well , i have n't seen him in a while , and i just -- there 's something i want to talk to him about . sonny : what 's that , franco ? franco : come on . you know . look , we all know . i want to talk about what 's going on between you and carly . maxie : who do you think you are -- chris harrison ? judge walters : who ? maxie : nobody tells me who gets my roses . nathan : maxie -- maxie : no ! where do you get off ending our date ? for your information , i can do a lot worse than nathan . i have done a lot worse than nathan . nathan : thanks ? maxie : he is a good person . judge walters : be that as it may , how am i to interpret you flaunting your budding relationship with a man who blatantly lied to me -- a man who was willing to commit perjury in a court of law ? let me give you a hint . your hearing for visitation comes at the end of this year , ms . jones . if you hope to see your daughter again , you 'll have nothing more to do with nathan west . maxie : you can not do that . it 's an abuse of power . nathan : she is right . maxie 's personal life has zero bearing on her fitness as a parent . judge walters : oh , i beg to differ . it 's a judge 's prerogative to determine what type of home life a child is exposed to . maxie : well , my child will be exposed to a highly decorated officer of the p.c.p.d . judge walters : who fouled his badge and the court with a lie -- a lie which i have discreetly left unmentioned to your superiors . nathan : i was not under oath that day in your chambers . therefore , i could not have given false testimony and have done nothing to befoul my badge . maxie : nathan 's right . all he did was try to help me . judge walters : by lying ? maxie : and what -- liars and people who associate with them are not fit to be parents ? because then you 're just discounting like 98 % of the population . judge walters : i 've checked in on your daughter , ms . jones . she seems to be thriving under damian spinelli 's care . maxie : even so , that does not mean she does n't need her mother . judge walters : look , if you expect for me to adjust a situation that 's working fine as is , then you would be wise to stay away from detective west . but feel free to test me . just do n't say i did n't warn you come the hearing and my ruling . good evening . julian : what the hell 's gotten into you ? alexis : oh , i wish i knew . i wish i knew what is wrong with me ! why do i keep doing this ? i keep buying in to your stories and turning a blind eye to every shred of evidence . i am pathetic ! julian : what are you talking about ? alexis : i 'm talking about your association with luke spencer -- you know , the one that you did n't have . well , it turns out that sam talked to tracy quartermaine , and tracy said that you and luke had your heads together in the wyndemere stables the night of nikolas ' engagement party ! julian : just because tracy may or may not have seen me -- alexis : no , stop lying ! stop -- stop lying . you swore on everything that was holy to you ... that luke was not your boss . julian : he is not . you have to believe me . alexis : no , i do n't have to believe you . i believed you when you said you were no longer in the business . you were lying then . you are lying now . i ... am ... done . julian : alexis , please . it 's complicated . alexis : no , it 's not . it 's simple . we are through . elizabeth : i 'm sorry . jason : for what ? elizabeth : it 's not very professional of me to be sharing personal stories with a patient or to be breaking down like this . jason : well , i 'm glad i could listen . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] like you had a choice . you 're kind of a captive audience . jason : [ laughs ] elizabeth : oh , god . i 'm sorry again . jason : again ? elizabeth : i did n't mean to sound inse -- that sounded insensitive . i did n't mean it like that . jason : relax . you 're fine . you 're fine . you 're fine . i 'm sorry if i upset you . elizabeth : there are other people in this world with the name jake . i just have to remember that . jason : if it even is my name , but ... it feels right for some reason . elizabeth : it does ? jason : yeah . let 's go with it . it 's nice to meet you , elizabeth . elizabeth : it 's nice to meet you , jake . [ crunch ] patrick : [ groans ] sam : patrick . patrick : yeah ? sam : are you awake ? patrick : unfortunately , yes . why ? sam : i just heard you . that 's all . patrick : sorry . did i wake you up ? sam : no . i was already awake . are you okay ? patrick : yeah . i just stabbed myself with one of your boots . you got some heels there . sam : [ laughing ] did they impale you ? patrick : slight indentation . sam : i 'm sorry . patrick : it 's fine . sam : no . this is n't fine . [ groans ] this is crazy . come here . get in . patrick : [ sighs ] nina : you felt obligated to take care of me , and that 's what initially drove you and sam apart . it forced you to spend more time with me and allowed you to ... rediscover your feelings for me . when i started getting better , i freaked out . i just freaked out . i was just worried about what would happen to us . i 'm sorry . i know i should have been honest , but i did n't want to lose you ... after having just found you . does this make any sense to you at all ? silas : it was the wrong thing to do . nina : i - it was . silas : but i think i can understand why you did it . nina : really ? silas : now , why were you chasing after franco ? franco : sonny , i know that you were trying to get back together with carly , and i know that she rejected you , and i do n't know if you 've heard or not , but we are engaged . and it 's not , you know , officially official because i have n't gotten her a ring yet , but -- sonny : piggy bank still not full ? franco : that 's funny . i got her this necklace , though . sonny : yeah . franco : is n't it great ? sonny : no . it 's ugly . franco : really ? sonny : yes . probably one of the ugliest things i 've ever seen . franco : coolest thing i 've ever seen in my life . sonny : oh , wow . franco : let 's just agree to disagree . sonny : okay . franco : she was really up front with me , sonny , when she told me what was going on between the two of you , or , more importantly , what was not going on between the two of you . and i 'll be honest -- i did n't believer her at first . i thought that she was n't being honest with me . i thought she was n't being honest with herself . but then ... i asked this woman to marry me , and she said yes . and then it clicked . of course she 's over you . this woman is in love with me . why else would she agree to marry me , right ? carly : right . franco : so ... i 'd like for us to move forward . i feel like we can all live in peace together . sonny : you think that 's possible ? franco : yeah , it 's totally possible . all you have to do is apologize . carly : sonny , no good is gon na come of this conversation . sonny : i 'm not the one who started it . but i 'm curious -- what does he want me to apologize for ? franco : for kissing my girlfriend . oh , no . you 're right . i 'm sorry -- my fiancée . sonny : yeah . all right . i - i am sorry .

[ sighs ] [ monitor beeping ] [ scene_break ] ava : well , i realize that i do n't have her medical records . i do n't even know what vaccines she 's had , and so i got scared , you know , that maybe she has the measles , or maybe it 's something worse than that . elizabeth : no , do n't worry . we 've got all of her records . and dr. murray is her pediatrician . he 's one of the best . ava : it 's so sad that i do n't know that . i just -- i just got my daughter back from sonny and carly . elizabeth : [ breathes deeply ] she 's up to date on all her vaccinations . is she eating ? ava : yes . she just -- you know , she seems a little uncomfortable . elizabeth : i have a feeling it 's just eczema , which is basically harmless . both of my boys had it when they were toddlers . i 'll call a dermatologist , though , and have them check her out for you . ava : thank you . elizabeth : i bet he 's just gon na give her a low - dose cortisone cream . [ computer keys clacking ] ava : really ? elizabeth : yeah . ava : you think that 's all it is , then -- then , the rash maybe is n't a symptom of something else , something worse than that ? elizabeth : no , i do n't . i think your little girl 's gon na be just fine . ava : [ laughs ] that is such a relief to me .

[ breathes deeply ] would n't it be sort of a gift for elizabeth if you could tell her who you really are , your life , your history ? would n't that make your commitment to her mean so much more ? do n't you love her enough to want to give that to her ? [ scene_break ] felix : here , try it ! sabrina : no , get that away from me . felix : mm - hmm . sabrina : look , just because i 'm not chowing down does not mean i 'm with child . felix : i remember the symptoms from last time . sabrina : i 've been under a lot of stress . michael 's been at the hospital 24 - 7 . and i know you 've read the papers . carlos is the prime suspect in sonny 's shooting . felix : it 's all donny can talk about ... when he 's not talking about me . sabrina : look , i 'm really worried that michael 's gon na go after carlos . felix : your technique has improved exponentially . but do you really think you can distract me from pursuing my line of questioning about your possible pregnancy ?

jake needs to know what was up with hayden 's mysterious phone call to elizabeth which elizabeth is clearly evading answering truthfully to him about . he wonders what elizabeth is hiding . she tells him she does not appreciate or trust hayden after they both know that hayden got paid to scam jake into believing she was his wife . yet jake knows there is something else going on that she is not telling him . he first goes to ask hayden , at wyndermere . she tells him something he never heard from elizabeth regarding that she wanted to find out what it was that elizabeth ( and nikolas ) knew and she supposedly also knew , before she got shot and lost her memory , regarding who jake really is and how it relates to sam .... both nikolas and laura silently listen very worried that hayden could regain her memory , turn many peoples ' lives upside down with the revelation that jake is jason , and she could very well find out more than that . jake somehow knows that he needs to contact sam in order to unravel this mystery although he is completely unaware of how or why . jake informs hayden , as well as nikolas and laura , that he intends to marry elizabeth . at that point , laura admonishes jake to maybe not do that given that he knows nothing about his past . for all he knows , she reminds him , he could have a wife and child somewhere and it will only cause more pain for too many people if he marries elizabeth and later that is discovered .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't know what 's happened to you in your life , griffin , what kind of demons or trouble you 've had to deal with . that 's between you and your maker . but i got to -- i got to , uh , deal with my life , my family . this is the best way i know how . griffin : look , i understand that . sonny : okay , let me just say this about -- let 's talk about julian , who he is , what he 's done , and the -- and the threat he poses . first of all ... put a hit on your father . killed carlos , and he put a knife -- he put a knife to alexis ' throat . a woman ! if i did n't show up , he would 've -- he would 've -- he would 've killed her . so , that -- that pretty much tells me he does n't value life . he does n't respect innocence . griffin : look , i do n't excuse julian for anything he 's done . sonny : he would -- he would -- i know . i know that . nobody does , right ? he would go after an innocent child and a woman just as quick as he -- he 'd come after me . as a matter of fact , he did come after me . out in public a couple days ago , he says to me , `` i 'm taking you down . you 're gon na be in the ground . `` what am i supposed to do ? go and just be in the garage while his hit men come and ambush me like they did duke ? use harsh language ? when am i gon na be able to stop turning the other cheek and defend myself ? ! griffin : you sound like you 're trying to convince yourself of something , sonny , and you 're having doubts . sonny : no , i just got to do the right thing . [ sighs ] griffin : let me tell you what i learned about this statue when i was in the seminary . the sacred heart is about love . w - w - we ca n't walk on water , turn water into wine like jesus , but that 's not our purpose . what we can do is love like jesus , forgive like jesus , offer up all injustice to god the father , the way his son did on the last day of his earthly life . sonny : jesus is divine . i 'm human . i 'm way past the point of redemption . griffin : hey , i do n't know what you did in your past . but i know what you 're planning to do today , and it 's wrong . you have a chance to make things right , for you , for carly , for everyone who loves you . will you ?

[ laughs ] jason : okay , i 've got to take off . carly : all right . jason : okay . carly : well , you know what ? thank you so much for stopping by . as always , your timing is perfect . jason : okay . what 's going on ? what 's wrong ? carly : i ... i got it . i got it . thank you . jason : hey , i know you got it , but you want to humor me and tell me what 's going on ? carly : [ sighs ] it 's morgan . you 're gon na hear about it anyway . he was expelled from pcu . plagiarism . jason : oh , come on , morgan . [ sighs ] i 'm sorry to hear that . carly : he 's angry . he 's humiliated . i mean , he was doing so well , and now it 's like his bipolar is n't in check at all . jason : is he taking his meds ? carly : he swears he is . he does . and he was doing so well for so long . and i 'm trying not to hover , because he gets really mad at me when i do , but these past few weeks , it 's been really bad . he 's sleeping all day . he 's home all the time . he 's missing shifts at work . but then he 's waking up , and he 's really focused on something new . jason : well , sometimes it takes a while for these meds to balance . you and i both know how long that process can take , but ... they work . look at sonny . carly : i know . i hear you , okay ? it 's just , he 's my baby , you know ? he 's my baby boy , and i just feel like i 'm not doing enough for him . jason : you 're a good mom . you do enough for all of your kids . you 're always there to support them , even when they might not want it . carly : [ laughs ] most of the time . you 're right . i mean , it 's all gon na be fine , right ? it 's all gon na work out . thank you .

[ scene_break ] julian : all right , this should n't take long . so , uh , just stay with the car . man : you got it , boss . [ muffled rock music playing ] man : this patch is supposed to kill the cravings . this 'll only take a minute . [ cell phone ringing ] man : hello ? [ scene_break ] kiki : when morgan first got out of freedman , things were a little bit awkward . but little by little , we reconnected . and at first ... [ chuckles ] ... things were great . i really thought that we were gon na be okay . and then almost overnight ... morgan changed . dillon : so , that 's what you 've been dealing with the last couple of weeks ? kiki : i love morgan . i do . i always will . but the love that i feel now ... it 's not strong enough to build a life on . [ sighs ] you must think that i 'm the worst person in the world . dillon : no , i think that you 're human , and i think that you 're finally being honest with yourself . kiki : it almost feels like my relationship with morgan , it 's a crutch for both of us . dillon : how so ? kiki : morgan leans on me to get him through the day without ever having to deal with any of his own issues , and then here i am doing backflips trying to make everything right for him . i mean , i 'm losing sight of who i am and -- and what i need . [ sighs ] maybe that 's ... that 's the bigger problem here . i made morgan think that he 's the one for me . and maybe he 's not . [ scene_break ] [ rock music playing ] julian : so , i 'm on my way out , minding my own business . she accosts me with this eviction letter . so what the hell do i do ? scott : do n't do it . ava : but he 's been drinking . scott : it 's not your kid . it 's not your problem . we have business to discuss . julian : yeah , do one of you two want to tell me what the hell 's going on ?

[ scene_break ] dillon : if morgan 's not the one for you , does that mean someone else is ? kiki ... are you talking about me ? kiki : yes . but it 's not fair . i - i 've been giving you such mixed signals , and i 've been wanting to get closer to you , and then i 've been pushing you away . dillon : kiki , i 'm a big boy , okay ? i can take it . kiki : are you sure ? because all i know is that i can not make a choice and stick to it . first i was with morgan . then i was with michael . then i was with morgan again . and then when -- when morgan was in the hospital , i started to get close to you . and then i ditched you for morgan . then here i am thinking about you again . i keep bouncing around from guy to guy when all i want to do is the right thing . dillon : kiki . stop , okay ? please . listen to me . i did what i thought was the right thing to do , okay ? i got back into the friend zone . i gave you and morgan your space . but i never got you out of my system . not ever .

morgan is clearly losing it and everybody is worried about him . he drinks at the floating rib until the bartender stops serving him , takes his keys so he ca n't drive and urges morgan to call a cab . not far away , ava meets with scott baldwin and they both observe morgan , knowing what has happened to him and why . carly has evicted julian from his apartment at the metro court and taken legal action to keep him away from her hotel . he goes to meet with scott and we see that his hired man has left the keys in julian 's car after getting a phone call where he 's distracted and he leaves the car unattended . ava is mindful about what is happening to morgan although julian asks his sister why she could care less and why is n't she happy to know that morgan is really losing it and very possibly kiki will dump him once and for all , just as they both know ava has always wanted ? yet only she and scott know why she feels guilt and is worried about what could happen . without his car nor money for a cab , morgan finds julian 's car unattended with the keys in it , gets behind the wheel and drives drunk . jason goes after him and after a long attempt to convince him not to give up and believe his life is over , he persuades morgan to pull over so they can talk . right then , however , julian finds out that his car has been stolen . as soon as morgan steps out of the car to talk to jason , there appears to be an explosion and the car appears to have blown up . at the chapel , griffin talks to an argumentative sonny about mercy and forgiveness . although sonny protests to griffin that julian got away with murdering griffin 's father , as well as carlos and almost slit alexis ' throat , griffin urges sonny not to ruin his life as well as the lives of carly and his kids who need him by doing what he wants to do . at that point , sonny gets on the phone to call off his previous plan . griffin stays at the church and thanks god for helping sonny to do the right thing as he prays for sonny to find peace . kiki is with dillon and they both admit they have never gotten over each other , she has mistakenly thought morgan was right for her when he has only dragged her down in his mess . she then concludes she will have to be honest with morgan and break it off with him .

robin : you 're giving yourself way too much credit . patrick and i broke up for many reasons , and none of which have to do with you . leyla : i never said they were . robin : patrick and i want different things out of life , we have different goals . so if you want to go after him -- correction -- if you want to blatantly chase after him , knock yourself out . but do n't throw it in my face . leyla : you are n't angry with me , dr. scorpio . you regret breaking up with patrick , and you want him back . [ scene_break ] epiphany : may i help you ? woman : i 'm nadine crowell . my sister , jolene , is in the icu ? spinelli : whoa ! uh -- the falsely fair one has a sinister sister ? nikolas : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . is there -- is there a problem here ? spinelli : most certainly . if the seemingly sweet one is actually related to the angel of death , jolene , she -- she may be as equally lethal . nadine : i just want to visit my sister . epiphany : your sister sabotaged this hospital , and deliberately caused patients ' deaths . so do n't expect a warm welcome from the staff . nikolas : wait -- apologize to her . [ scene_break ] alexis : i do n't think that i need to remind everyone here that a long - standing relationship is being dissolved , and both parties have a lot to lose . diane : and your point would be ? alexis : my point is that one of these parties has to back down before there 's a -- a grudge match where innocent people get hurt . diane : and that should be your client -- although , his innocence is in question -- make that nonexistent . alexis : elizabeth , it can be proven that you married lucky under false pretenses . you need to be the one to back down . [ scene_break ] carly : this is my house , trevor is my guest and if you have a problem with it , i 'm sorry , but it 's not your call . sonny : so what 's your plan ? you 're going to pour him a drink , he 's going to tell you everything ? carly : you 're interrupting , okay ? it 's time for you to go . sonny : you may think that you 're working him , but in actuality , he 's working you . [ scene_break ] leyla : i enjoy patrick 's company . i do n't apologize for that . robin : so i 've noticed . leyla : okay , look , patrick 's been friendly to me . he helped me deal with a very demanding program , and we enjoy working together . on a more personal basis , we have some common interests . at this point , it 's nothing more than that . robin : please ! you have been flirting with him since you met him -- you practically follow him around the hospital . leyla : and the same could be said about you . robin : patrick has a history of taking whatever is offered to him if she 's pretty and she 's available . so do yourself a favor and do n't make the mistake of thinking that there 's any kind of connection between the two of you . leyla : okay , look , if you 're having doubts about your breakup with patrick , tell him . all i 've done is accept a perfectly nice , perfectly ordinary , dinner invitation . [ scene_break ] dr. julian : okay , okay , all right , hold on -- just hold on . kelly : hmm ? dr. julian : look -- kelly : what ? dr. julian : do n't take this personally , all right ? look , i am very attracted to you -- kelly : okay . dr. julian : extremely tempted . kelly : mm - hmm . dr. julian : very flattered , but are n't you supposed to be in recovery right now ? kelly : you know , sexual addiction is n't like alcoholism or smoking -- you ca n't just quit . humans are sexual beings , it 's natural . dr. julian : yeah , i -- i agree . kelly : yeah . dr. julian : but i do n't want to mess you up if you 're going through any changes right now . kelly : no , no , the recovery program i 'm in allows me to feel attraction , and i am very attracted to you . dr. julian : yeah . kelly : i mean , we 're consenting adults ; no one 's going to get hurt . do n't you need to build up on your stamina ? kate : oh -- excuse me . kelly : oh -- dr. julian : ahem . kate : yeah , this is kind of awkward . dr. julian : yeah . kate : forget i was here . dr. julian : okay . [ scene_break ] nikolas : this very pleasant woman would just like to visit her sister , and i do n't like the way that you 're treating her . spinelli : okay , do n't judge a game by its light fort . nikolas : whatever . nurse johnson , as a staff member here at this hospital , i expect you to have more compassion for anyone who would want to visit a relative in icu . epiphany : i have nothing but compassion for you , if jolene crowell really is your sister . she sabotaged this hospital to pave the way for medcam 's takeover . my patients suffered , and some died -- on my watch . nadine : the police explained about the charges against jolene . i still ca n't believe she did any of those things . spinelli : okay , the falsely -- the falsely fair one claimed to be distraught over her father 's untimely death in a hospital environment . nadine : our father died during a routine procedure -- it was tough on the whole family . but jolene would never hurt , much less kill , anyone . spinelli : the seemingly sweet one appears to be most thoughtful and kind , but so did her sinister sibling . nikolas : well , the increasingly angry major benefactor thinks that the jackal is being rude and out of line . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : lucky and i have both made mistakes -- that 's why we 're ending this marriage . however , i do not have any intention of allowing lucky to dictate this divorce . diane : you 've heard my client 's response . all future communication will be done through the court or at scheduled mediation . excuse us . brace yourself -- alexis davis is a barracuda and she has definitely turned this divorce into a brawl . oy . elizabeth : realistically , what are the chances of getting the settlement i want ? i mean , i 'm not even asking for alimony . diane : right , and you need to rethink that . you 've got to ask for more than what you want -- that 's how you leave room to negotiate . that goes for child support , too . elizabeth : no , i -- diane : at least -- at least for jake . elizabeth : i do n't want lucky 's money ; i just want to make sure my children stay with me . diane : do n't worry . one way or another , you will definitely get full custody of your children . [ scene_break ] alexis : we need to prioritize , so you 're going to have to tell me what matters most . lucky : well , full access to cameron and jake . alexis : okay , that could be problematic due to your abuse . have you been going to meetings ? lucky : i have been clean and sober for over a year . alexis : good , good , lucky . all right , diane 's going to cite your infidelity , but we 'll neutralize that by referencing elizabeth 's involvement with jason . now , in court , you have to come from a position of strength . you ca n't just react to what the other person is throwing off . so jake is your biological son -- this is your ace in the hole because that gives you lots of rights under the law . lucky : okay , so what 's next ? alexis : diane is going to try to mediate this for as long as possible , which is more costly than either you or elizabeth can afford . so you need to give elizabeth some sort of incentive to settle and settle quickly . lucky : how do i do that ? alexis : by asking for more than you 're willing to settle for , to leave room to negotiate . you 're going to have to file for primary custody of jake . [ scene_break ] trevor : sonny , listen to me . i am no threat to carly . sonny : you ripped kate 's life apart to get to me , trevor . trevor : but carly is not interested in my quarrel with a woman she barely knows . carly : i have more important things to worry about than kate howard , okay ? can you please leave ? sonny : why do n't you tell him what you 're trying to do ? carly : i 'm trying to have a conversation over a halfway decent martini . are you happy ? go . sonny : carly wants to know whether or not johnny zacchara murdered our nanny , leticia . [ scene_break ] diane : of course , there is one simple and obvious way to make certain that lucky does not get custody of jake , and that is to tell the court -- and lucky -- that he is not jake 's biological father . elizabeth : i 've already sworn under oath that he is . diane : i can prove emotional duress . or , we can have the court order a paternity test , and you can be completely surprised at the results . elizabeth : no . no , it 's too dangerous for jake . i do n't want anyone else to know that jason is his father . [ scene_break ] lucky : jake -- he 's my son . cameron -- he might as well be . now , i love them both and elizabeth knows that . she ca n't regulate when i see them . alexis : just to be clear , cameron could be a problem because you never legally adopted him . lucky : but cameron thinks of me as his father , he calls me `` daddy . `` i -- i just ca n't disappear from his life . alexis : if you get custody of jake , she may be more generous with cameron . lucky : well , do n't count on it . alexis : she 's not going to want the two of them separated , trust me on that . all right , now , is elizabeth still seeing jason ? lucky : she swears she 's not . but -- alexis : if she is , we can argue primary custody on the fact that she puts jake in danger every time she allows him contact with jason . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i am well aware that medcam paid jolene crowell to sabotage patient care in efforts to undermine this hospital . however , being someone who has more than just a few dubious relatives , i find it unacceptable to condemn nadine here for something her sister allegedly may have done . and as for you , given your current employer , you 're in no position to criticize or pass judgment on anything . spinelli : okay , the slightly battered princely one may be correct in a strictly philosophical view , but had you been here and actually witnessed the -- the mayhem and loss caused by the falsely fair jolene , you would not be so quick to defend her sister . nadine : i do n't care what jolene is supposed to have done , i just want to see her . epiphany : family can visit the icu at any time . spinelli : given that one can not auto - select one 's relatives , the -- the jackal would be willing to escort you to the room where your sinister sibling lies comatose . nadine : `` the jackal `` ? spinelli : oh , yeah , i -- i am he . nadine : your name is `` jackal `` ? spinelli : no , actually , `` the -- the jackal . `` see , i 'm the assassin of the internet , i own cyberspace . epiphany : do you need to see a doctor , mr. cassadine ? emily : lainey did n't tell me you got hurt . [ scene_break ] kate : um , i -- i just wanted to apologize again for interrupting . kelly : oh -- no , i 'm done . just -- do n't mention it to anyone , okay ? kate : oh , no , of course not . i 'm extremely discreet . andy : why would you need to be ? [ andy sighs ] andy : did you have a slip ? kelly : were you eavesdropping ? andy : i 'll take that as a yes . kelly : okay , i kissed leo . [ andy sighs ] andy : you know , we have a deal -- you 're supposed to stay clean . kelly : it was one kiss , and it has nothing to do with me being a sex addict . andy : of course it does . kelly : no ! leo nearly died , and i was glad to see him . oh -- and , okay , he 's a sexy man ! andy : oh , god -- you know what ? look , if you 're having trouble controlling your addiction , you need to get to a meeting . kelly : no , no , you are not in charge of my meetings or my sex life , okay , so just back off . kate : ahem . excuse me . andy : i 'm just saying that if you 're already starting to backslide , then you need help . kate : excuse me ! andy and kelly : what ? kate : you might want to have this conversation somewhere else privately . not that i have n't heard worse at numerous cocktail parties , but usually the protagonists were drunk and did n't remember what they said the next morning , and you two most certainly will regret having said any of this in front of me . sonny : you see , carly suspects that you 're protecting johnny zacchara , and i do n't blame her because everybody knows that you work for his father . but the kid 's nuts . somebody should really look out for him , because , you know , carly 's not the only one who thinks that he strangled my nanny , leticia . trevor : sonny , how many times do i got to tell you ? johnny was nowhere near port charles the night that your nanny was murdered . sonny : oh , i know , i know -- you 'll do anything anthony zacchara says , you 'll protect his son . whatever he wants , you 'll do , right ? trevor : come on , sonny , smarten up ! why do n't you investigate your own list of personal enemies before you try to pin a murder on a young guy that you do n't even know ? carly , look , it 's always nice to see you -- even under these circumstances -- and i do hope we 'll have a chance to have that martini in the future . carly : were you thinking ? that was my one chance to question trevor and you blew it . sonny : you should n't be talking to the guy , much less inviting him to your house , getting him drunk , asking about a murder . carly : i will ask trevor anything i want , okay , anything i want if it helps me figure out who killed leticia . sonny : you 're not figuring out a damn thing ! [ scene_break ] elizabeth : lucky loves cameron and jake and they love him . they need him , and i want him to be a part of their lives , but i also want primary custody . diane : you will probably get it . you are a responsible person with a stable job and a strong support system . lucky is a recovering drug addict in a high- risk profession . elizabeth : you know , he 's worked really hard to stay clean . i 'd rather not use his drug addiction against him . diane : i know -- that 's why you have a lawyer , who will do the unpleasant things necessary to win . [ scene_break ] alexis : elizabeth has repeatedly allowed a man with a history of violence and who 's been shot at several times to hold jake -- in public , correct ? lucky : yeah -- at the coffeehouse , the park , the hospital . alexis : are there any witnesses ? lucky : i 'll start putting some names together . alexis : before we go any further , i want you to consider the implications . if you play the daddy card , and if we argue that elizabeth is putting your son in danger , you are essentially saying to the court that elizabeth is a bad mother . let me tell you something from personal experience . when you accuse a good woman of being an unfit mother , you are in volatile , deeply emotional territory . are you listening to me ? i can still remember every negative thing that ric ever said about me in court , and i ca n't forgive him . no matter how many times i try , and even though i know that it 'll be better for molly if i do , i ca n't . so hear me when i tell you that elizabeth is going to be furious . she is going to be deeply hurt , and any feelings that you have between the two of you or that you 've had between the two of you , any good feelings might very well be destroyed . so if you want to go down this road , lucky , you better make damn well sure this is the road you want to go down . [ scene_break ] emily : i heard about what happened at the police station . you were very brave . not to criticize a hero or anything , but maybe next time you could leave the restraining of the prisoner to the cops . nikolas : what -- what am i supposed to have done ? emily : what , you do n't remember ? nikolas : no . i spoke with lucky at the pcpd , paid the fine for the misdemeanor charge that scott filed . next thing i know , i 'm walking down the street with blood on my hands . [ scene_break ] nadine : why are you following me ? spinelli : i just -- just in case the seemingly sweet one has questions about her sinister sibling 's nefarious activities . nadine : i still ca n't believe things , especially after what happened to our father . spinelli : is that true ? did he really die in surgery ? nadine : he never woke up from the anesthesia . jolene and i were devastated . i -- it 's when we made the promise to help other people -- so that no one would have to go through what we did . that 's why we became nurses . spinelli : well , perhaps the seemingly sweet one used her training to help people . but the falsely fair jolene used her hard - won position as student nurse to kill . [ scene_break ] kate : oh , now , that 's just tragic . epiphany : what , is -- is there something wrong ? did we do something -- kate : no , that woman -- look . why would anyone wear that ? epiphany : not everybody wants to look like a painted - up , starving , 14-year - old model in a fashion magazine . and if you ask me , those girls are the real tragedy -- along with everything else i 've seen in `` couture . `` kate : well , you do n't have to take every page literally . fashion should be wearable art . epiphany : now , why would i wear art to general hospital ? and if i did , i would n't buy it out of `` couture . `` all the clothes in your magazine cost ridiculous amounts of money and have absolutely nothing to do with real women . kate : `` couture `` is cutting - edge . it 's one of the most influential magazines in the business . epiphany : i do n't care about the business , i care about my life . and when i open up a magazine , i want to see something that i can use , huh ? a pretty dress . a hairstyle for me and not some skinny blonde . maybe even a piece of furniture that i can actually afford to buy . i want a magazine to help me put a little style in my life . now , get back to work . jax : hey . i got your message . i understand you want to discuss a business proposal . kate : you and i may be in a position to help one another . [ scene_break ] sonny : do you have any idea how dangerous trevor lansing is ? carly : yes , i do . sonny : okay , so why do n't you leave him alone ? carly : because i 'm the only one n get to him , sonny . sonny : and who are you , nancy drew now , trying to solve the mystery of the twisted stairs ? carly : are you reading nancy drew ? sonny : i do n't read nancy drew . carly : then why did you bring it up ? sonny : because every time that i get shot and i 'm in the hospital , you insist on taking care of me . i 'm trying to go to sleep , you read out loud about , you know , some rich girl driving a roadster , solving some stupid mystery -- i do n't know . carly : it was a convertible . sonny : okay , we 're not changing the subject , because that 's what you do -- carly : i 'm not trying to change the subject -- you just need to admit that you like nancy drew . sonny : i do n't want you involved ! carly : i left leticia here that night , okay ? i did n't think -- and i found her dead on the floor , and i am going to find who 's responsible . sonny : it 's too dangerous . carly : the killer is text - messaging you , right ? johnny zacchara is text- messaging lulu . sonny : it does n't mean he 's the killer . carly : i know , i know . i feel the same way . when i met him , it did n't feel right . sonny : what ? when did you meet johnny zacchara ? carly : i ran into him . sonny : where ? carly : at the park . sonny : did he threaten you ? carly : no , he did n't threaten me . sonny : you 're lying to me . what did he do ? carly : nothing . he did n't do anything . sonny : why did n't you call me ? carly : okay , okay , you know , i want you to stop for a second . i want you to consider something , okay , consider this . what if johnny is just the decoy ? maybe that 's why trevor is spending so much time on him . what if this is all just a diversion so we do n't find the real killer ? sonny : i do n't want you anywhere near this . it 's not a game ; it 's not a novel mystery . leticia was found dead right here on the floor . i do n't want that happening to you . [ scene_break ] emily : a prisoner got loose the squad room . he was out of control ; he was on drugs . nikolas : lainey told you this ? emily : yeah , she was there visiting someone . she said that he went after the gun , and then you attacked him and you threw him down on the floor . nikolas : well , i 'm a hero , then . it ca n't be that bad . emily : yeah , lainey was concerned about the level of violence on your part . nikolas : well , is a little unsettling that i do n't remember , but at least i did something good this time . emily : i 'm going to page robin and patrick and order a full neurological workup , nikolas . nikolas : no , no , no -- no , i 've already had all the blood work done , along with a battery of all kinds of other tests , they did n't find anything . so whatever 's wrong -- emily : you have gaps in your memory ; you have fights that you do n't remember . your violence is escalating -- nikolas : it 's my problem and i 'll deal with it . so why do n't you support me for once , instead of trying to control every damn thing in my life ? [ scene_break ] kelly : andy -- andy ? hey ? i 'm sorry i snapped at you before . you were right , i -- i definitely had a slip . andy : you do n't have to confess to me , i 'm not the sex police . kelly : but we have a deal going . you know , 68 more days and we get to celebrate . andy : i do n't -- i do n't know . you know , i 'm new with this whole addiction / recovery thing . if you slipped , go to a meeting , leave me out of it . kelly : why did i expect any understanding from you ? you 're not even an addict , right ? you 've got it all under control . [ scene_break ] jax : okay . what do you think we can do for each other ? kate : picture this -- new magazine . classy , cutting - edge , but for real women . jax : i 'm listening . kate : picture a magazine for women who work every day . they may have a career . it may just be a job , they may choose to work from home -- it does n't matter because their lives are busy , complicated . they do n't have time for haute couture , but they still -- they still want to have some style . jax : i know a lot of women who would fit that profile . kate : do you think that they would buy a first - class magazine ? i 'm talking high - end photographers , a - list writers , gorgeous layouts , and , of course , tons of beautiful ads . but it would focus on the clothes and the hair and the accessories and maybe even some furniture , but it would all be something that a working woman could afford . jax : mm - hmm . sounds like a great idea . kate : it 's an expensive idea , and it would require significant startup funds . jax : of course , it will . kate : which would mean i would need a backer with very deep pockets . in other words , you . [ scene_break ] diane : just find me an expert on the tendency of drug addicts to relapse -- during the early years of recovery . as soon as possible . thank you . trevor : you think i should take cover ? you going to lob another heel ? diane : i allowed myself to get a little carried away , did n't trevor : no -- diane : which is not to say that i was wrong . trevor : you got a mean right arm -- yankees should 've pitched you against the red sox . diane : mm - hmm . what i have , mr. lansing , is an appreciation for fashion . no one understands american fashion and style better than kate howard . you did a terrible disservice to the public when you got her fired from `` couture . `` trevor : no , i was just helping to enforce a morals clause . diane : oh , my -- really ? well , that sounds like -- like undo influence -- or maybe it 's just good old - fashioned coercion . i wonder what the american bar association would have to say about it . trevor : i tell you , if i were you , i would concentrate on my high - dollar client , forget about me . diane : what makes you think i 'm the tiniest bit interested in your advice ? trevor : because i just left sonny at his ex - wife 's house . he was really upset -- almost incoherent . diane : i 'm his lawyer , not his shrink . trevor : fine . but he 's going to get himself into a lot of problems if cooler heads do n't prevail . my advice -- take it or leave it . [ scene_break ] sonny : why do you think i wanted you to stay on the island ? because i knew you would try to , you know , get involved , and -- and i was right . you 're running around , baiting a killer , risking your life when our kids just lost leticia . carly : that 's why i 'm doing this -- i owe her . sonny : you 're putting yourself in the middle of a mob war -- having drinks with trevor lansing , meeting with johnny zacchara , a kid who -- who 's psychotic , whether he killed leticia or not . carly : okay , it 's not just about leticia . i 'm trying to protect my children , and i want to protect lulu . sonny : do you trust me at all ? carly : of course i trust you . sonny : do you understand that we 're following the same leads , tripping all over each other ? let me take care of this . carly : i ca n't . sonny : why ? carly : because you 're too close to the situation . trevor pushes all your buttons , and it 's too painful for you . sonny : it does n't help that i come in here and you 're pouring him martinis . carly : then you need to keep your distance . sonny : the man is dangerous . carly : i agree with you , i know he 's dangerous ! but let me protect you for once . i know what trevor 's cost you . sonny : i 'm doing okay . but every time you get involved , then i worry , and it makes things worse . carly : okay , i know that the pain is real for you . i can see it , sonny ; i can feel it when you and trevor are in the same room . that pain affects the choices you make , and i know how you think , so let me think for you for a little while . sonny : i need you to stay out of this . because nothing , no amount of pain , nothing that -- that trevor lansing can dredge up will stop me from protecting my family , and that includes you . [ scene_break ] leyla : mrs. levin 's updated vitals . epiphany : okay , thank you . leyla : so my shift 's over . if you do n't need anything , i 'll be going . epiphany : sounds like you 're in a hurry . leyla : i have to get ready for my date . epiphany : please tell me it is not patrick drake . leyla : let 's just say i have to meet somebody at the metro court , who shall remain nameless . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . emily : hey . i did n't expect you back so soon . elizabeth : behar wants me to assist in surgery ; i need to review the chart -- which i think you have . this is mr. adams ? emily : mm - hmm . elizabeth : thanks . you okay ? emily : yeah , i just worry too much , that 's all . elizabeth : nikolas ? emily : mm - hmm . just more of the same , really . he 's been volatile and moody . i 'm sure we 're going to get through it . how was your meeting with diane ? elizabeth : well , you were right -- about bringing lawyers into the divorce . i 'm afraid things are going to get ugly . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the falsely fair jolene planted a canister of laughing gas in an ambulance , then punctured it -- the canister , not the emergency vehicle . but it caused a terrible explosion and a patient got seriously injured . nadine : that 's awful . spinelli : and then she -- she hastened the death of a sweet and elderly woman , who all she wanted to do was create needlepoint images of clowns -- which are terrifying to some , but reassuring to others . and then your sinister sibling sabotaged an elevator , trapping a woman that was in labor . nadine : that was in the police report . it must 've been terrible . spinelli : it -- it was . um -- but the baby , the charmed one , lives on . nadine : and you are absolutely positive that my sister was behind all of this ? spinelli : yeah . the falsely fair jolene once told me that if you wear scrubs , you can go anywhere in the hospital undetected , and i -- the jackal had no idea that she was referring to herself . she was a loyal and well - paid minion of the corporate giant medcam , who are trying to take over general hospital and turn it into a -- a profit - driven medical mill . nadine : jolene may have been misguided , but signing on as a hired assassin for a corporation ? i do n't believe that . spinelli : but it 's the truth . and since you 're not doing anything to hide her sisterly ties , do n't be surprised if people treat you with suspicion . nadine : i understand why you do n't like me , mr. jackal . spinelli : that 's what your sinister sibling called me -- mr. jackal . nadine : i -- i do n't mean to be rude , but i have a lot to think about . spinelli : oh . yeah -- no , of course . the jackal is patient . he can wait . huh . nadine : would you please leave me alone ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : locker room is for hospital staff only . lucky : i told epiphany it was an emergency . elizabeth : is it ? lucky : about what happened earlier , i just want to stop this fight before it gets out of control . elizabeth : yeah ? well , so do i . lucky : then fire diane . let alexis draft up our custody agreement . elizabeth : no . lucky : elizabeth , if you do n't , then i 'm going to have to file for sole custody of my son . [ scene_break ] carly : i want you to keep watching him , okay ? yeah , get back to me as soon as you have that information . great . jax : hey . carly : hey . jax : everything all right ? carly : yeah , i 'm just making sure all the windows are in right before the winter hits in montréal . jax : you are doing a great job with the renovations . carly : thank you . jax : and i would appreciate your input on another project , too . carly : okay . jax : kate howard approached me about a new fashion magazine that focuses on women who work for a living . carly : that was my idea . i pitched that to her boss on father 's day . jax : well -- well , she wants me to back it . carly : well , forget it . my husband is not going into business with sonny 's new girlfriend . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm glad you got my message . kate : well , i had to take some time to put on some real clothes . sonny : so , how was the hospital ? kate : ah , it was n't terrible , but this is heaven . sonny : you like that ? kate : i do . sonny : you know , i got this urge , you know , that -- i do n't know -- to take care of you . and you 're probably exhausted , so -- kate : actually , i 'm inspired . sonny : do n't tell me you like community service . kate : uh -- i 'm -- i 'm having some new ideas for a new magazine . sonny : hmm . kate : it 's funny , because trevor and warren were so anxious to get rid of me , they forgot to put a non - compete clause in my exit papers . and so i double- checked my original contract -- i can do anything i want . sonny : so what 's the magazine about ? kate : well , i actually have two or three ideas i 'm playing with , but i 'm thinking about shifting focus and building on something for real women . clothes that are more accessible for women on a budget but who also appreciate style on their own terms . sonny : kind of like you would 've been if you were still back in the old neighborhood ? kate : yeah . possibly . but i think i might already have an investor . sonny : and who would that be ? kate : jasper jacks . sonny : jax ? why not ask me ? are sonny : i 'm just saying , you know , you lost `` couture `` because of me , and i 'd be -- well , honored to help you start a magazine . kate : sonny , i appreciate your generosity . but we are involved , and i think i just learned a very valuable lesson about mixing business and emotion . sonny : is that the only reason you 're not taking my money ? kate : i am sure that your money is well - laundered , and you seem to have plenty of it . but i would imagine that every dollar of it has been earned by some criminal activity , and i ca n't , sonny , i ca n't have anything to do with anything illegal . i 'm sorry if that offends you . do you want me to go ? maybe i should just go . sonny : no , no , no . you think i made this dinner and now i 'm going to let you just get out of here that quick ? kate : you kind of went to a lot of trouble . sonny : yeah , i did . so can we just forget about business for one night , and just , you know , do whatever it is we want to do ? kate : um -- business ? what business ? [ scene_break ] carly : i think it 's unfair that kate got axed from `` couture , `` okay ? but that 's what she gets for hanging out with trevor lansing . jax : she 's just trying to turn a bad situation into something positive . carly : fine -- let her do it with someone else 's husband . jax : okay , she really knows what she 's doing , and i think it 's a good investment . carly : what if i asked you not to ? jax : what if i asked you to trust me on this ? carly : i 'd say you 're wasting your time , because i wo n't . i 'm jealous , i 'm possessive , i know kate stole my idea , and i think she 's after my husband . jax : okay , we can negotiate the intellectual property , and i am extremely married . carly : what if kate wo n't respect our wedding vows ? jax : you 're -- you 're infuriating , but i love you . i really love you , and i promise you that you are the only woman for me . hmm ? carly : you 're trying to distract me with sex .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : this is exactly why we should have our own attorneys -- let them fight so we do n't have to . lucky : we agreed to make this as easy as possible for the boys . then you went out and hired jason 's lawyer , and now diane is trying to keep my time with jake down to weekends . elizabeth : we agreed the boys would live with me . but you can see them whenever you want -- nights , weekends , whenever . a piece of paper is n't going to change that . but making threats might . lucky : well , i have concern for jake 's safety . elizabeth : how can you say that to me ? i 'm a good mother and you know it . lucky : well , good mothers do n't let mobsters hang out with their kids . elizabeth : jason has n't been around jake for weeks . lucky : your friendship with jason is a constant danger to my son , and you know alexis will have no problem proving it . elizabeth : oh , i do n't want this to get ugly . but i will not stand back and let alexis bully me on your behalf . and if you or your lawyer even think about implying that i 've endangered my son in any way , i 'll have diane drag up your addiction to painkillers so fast , you wo n't even know what hit you .

[ scene_break ] carly : i narrowed it down to these two colors . jax : let me guess . for the solarium and the new spa addition ? carly : yes , but since the windows are boarded up because of the construction , i had to come down here for the sunlight . jax : i already knew all that as soon as i saw you floating around here with that look on your face . you know -- the one you get when you 're visualizing . carly : well , it 's -- it 's nice to be so known . which one would you choose ? jax : i 'd probably go with , um -- carly : oh , let me guess . blue - green , because it reminds you of the color of the water in fiji . jax : well , if i were to commemorate a honeymoon , i would go with the rosy red . carly : why ? jax : color of your butt after you sat on that sea urchin . carly : you 're never going to let me live that down . that could have happened to anybody . jax : oh , i beg to differ . that was an urchin of particular taste . he zeroed in on the finest butt in fiji . alexis : hello . jax : hi . alexis : i was in the restaurant waiting for you . jax : i 'm sorry . i -- we had a meeting . carly : does n't take a genius to figure out what that meeting 's about -- our divorce .

[ scene_break ] epiphany : i like you both . you 're two of the finest doctors i 've ever had the privilege of working with . you 're good human beings , and you 're probably going to make exceptional parents . a little over indulgent maybe , but that 's neither here nor there . so , i 'm asking you nicely -- work out your problems on your own time . now , your tests have already been ordered and rushed , and here 's your chart . i was bringing it to your office when i got waylaid by dr. scorpio ordering the same tests for a second time , with an attitude no less . now , will there be anything else ? robin : no . patrick : no . epiphany : thank you . i think i need a break . patrick : ouch . robin : is my face red ? patrick : yeah , we kind of deserved that one . robin : yes , we did okay , i need to say something . patrick : okay . robin : i was really disappointed that you turned down my proposal , even though i completely respect and understand why you did what you did . it does n't change the fact that i love you , and i 'm totally committed to raising our child together . so , in the mean time , i will be more professional so that we do not get yelled at by epiphany again . okay . [ scene_break ] jason : okay , max , i -- listen , i am sorry that you are in some kind of bind right now , but sonny 's trying to poach my lieutenants . i need to figure out who 's loyal and who is not loyal , and i do consider you a good friend , but technically you are working for a guy who is trying to take over my organization . max : what 's happening between you and mr. c is terrible and wrong , okay ? if i could do anything to stop it , i would , but i ca n't . and -- and -- i kind of got some big problems of my own right now . milo : did he agree to help ? max : jason is n't appreciating the magnitude of the situation . which is why , busy or not , you have to hear me out so you 'll understand -- jason : okay , max , okay . just make it fast . max : since you know who my father is , you must be familiar with at least some of his history . jason : yeah , maximus giambetti . legendary old - school gangster . he 's feared , ruthless , and deported . max : right , right , and he 's been in retirement in palermo for close to 20 years . i figured there 's no way he could ever even come back to the states . milo : i think what max is trying to say here , is that he was hoping that dad would n't find out about his lying through his front teeth . jason : so , what does this have to do with me ? max : dad does n't like surprises , and he 's on his way . [ scene_break ] lucky : elizabeth ? i 'm surprised she 's not home . sam : well , i 'm actually glad that she is n't , because it 's not a good idea to just walk into a woman 's house without any warning . she could be busy . lucky : yeah , well , i did n't think about that . sam : that 's a typical male . lucky : yeah , well , you know what ? maybe i should call her . see how long she 's going to -- sam : no , come on . just -- just let her be . the kids are crabby and cranky and a little bit tired . we 'll just put them down and wait for her . lucky : you -- you do n't mind ? sam : of course not . why would i ? lucky : well , you know , big boys weekend . thought you 'd might , you know , be tired . sam : no . not even close . i actually love having you and all your sons all to myself .

[ scene_break ] nadine : that probably sounded like i was making assumptions , and you know what they do . it could have been completely different . nikolas : what could be completely different about what ? nadine : well , i -- i could have stayed in the guest room and still have been unable to sleep -- same outcome , different location . does n't have to hinge on making love or having sex . let 's not make this a bigger deal than what it is , -- um , right ? i mean , not that you would have wanted me , anyway . i mean , god . i 'm not exactly sex goddess of the universe with this bruised and battered face . not that we 're even talking about sex . nikolas : oh , we 're not ? nadine : no . um , no . this -- this is about the counterfeit drugs that i got from general hospital . yes . which means that , despite all of the precautions we 've been taking , these drugs are still getting through . so , we need to step up the investigation . what i am telling you is to keep your ears open and , um , let me know if you hear anything , okay ? [ scene_break ] jason : i -- i still do n't understand what you 're asking me to do . max : bottom line -- okay , my father got his hands on a fake passport . he 's going to be here soon . all of a sudden he wants to visit both of his sons . the good news is he 'll only be here for a few days . so , i just need you to help me out while -- [ phone rings ] jason : hold -- hold -- hold on . yeah ? elizabeth : hey , it 's me . jason : hey . elizabeth : i need to see you . can you come to my studio ? jason : right now ? elizabeth : if you can . jason : yeah , yeah , sure . i 'll be right over . max : so -- diane : jason , i have reviewed all the contracts concerning the division of assets between you and sonny , and i can assure you they are iron clad -- jason : okay , we 're going to discuss this later . i got to -- i got to be somewhere right now . max : no , no , no . wait , wait , wait . i 'm not done here . jason : okay , can you -- can you do me a favor and just figure out what max is asking me to do . find out if i can help , and just bill me for however long it takes , okay ? diane : getting paid to spend time with my guy ? [ diane laughs ] diane : why do i love my job ? [ max groans in pain ] diane : sweetheart , you look upset . milo : he should . max : you think this is funny ? diane : what in the world is going on ? max : you people have no idea what is about to hit the fan . [ scene_break ] jerry : do i detect an edge of cynicism ? alexis : what can i say ? carly brings out the best in me . jerry : well , i happen to have a higher opinion of carly than you do . as far as this breakup is concerned , i 'm far more optimistic . alexis : are you ? you 're optimistic ? that 's funny . jerry : i guess it 's part and parcel of the new improved me . alexis : how gullible exactly do you think i am ? jerry : well , i happen to believe that , you know , jax and carly are going through a bit of a rough patch . they may even believe that they 're over . alexis : that 's usually what divorce indicates . jerry : well , it can also be temporary , you know ? a way to may a break , to reassess the damages , make the appropriate adjustments . alexis : you think they 're going to get back together ? jerry : well , my brother is incredibly good at winning , and when he realizes that he is going to win bigger by having carly at his side , he 'll woo her back within an inch of her life . alexis : if you encourage that in any way , i will kill you . i 'm not kidding . i will . it 's going to be ugly , too . wo n't be pretty . jerry : i 'm sure . [ scene_break ] jax : i ca n't believe you 're turning your nose up at the belle maison . you love that place . carly : i love this place more . jax : you love this place more . well , i do n't want to sell my shares , okay ? carly : well , i do n't want a divorce , but i do n't seem to have a say so in that , and since you 're going through with this , and we have to split our assets , my preference is the metro court . i do n't want to move . jax : well , i do n't want to move either . [ scene_break ] mac : hey , no sleeping on the job . robin : hi . are you clairvoyant ? because you 're exactly the person that i need to see right now . mac : well , i 'd like to take credit for my unerring instinct , but anna told me you might be feeling a little down . so , i thought i 'd come by and try to cheer you up . robin : mission accomplished . mac : i brought a smoothie -- raspberry . robin : yum , thank you . what 's in the bag ? mac : oh , take a guess . robin : chocolate chip cookies ? mac : give the pregnant lady a prize . robin : i 'll settle for the cookies . mm . chocolate chip cookies -- the all purpose remedy . you know , this reminds me of all the zillion times that you would bring them home and make me feel better . mac : yeah , well , i did bring them by just as many times as a bribe , remember ? i mean , i was flying blind for awhile -- no clue ? so , bribery was a perfectly acceptable response . robin : you learned fast , though . mac : i had a great teacher . robin , you are the smartest , bravest person i know , and i am your biggest fan . so , know something going in -- no matter what you do , or have done , it 's going to be all right . robin : what i 've done is made a mess of everything . [ scene_break ] diane : my darling , you are many things . you are tall , handsome , charming , flexible , sweet , gallant . did i mention flexible ? the thing you are not , most assuredly , is a fraud . honesty and guilelessness are two of your most attractive qualities . milo : you might want to ask dear old dad what he thinks when he finds out that max here is only a lowly bodyguard -- just like me . max : how many times are you going to play that broken record , dumbkoff ? dad was deported out of the country . how the hell was i supposed to know he would ever come back ? for 20 years , we 've been the ones who 've traveled . always , vacation meant a trip to palermo . never once the other way around . now , all of a sudden , he 's here -- diane : whoa , whoa , whoa -- wait a minute . wait a minute . stop . slow down . back up . what -- what do you mean your father was deported ? what do -- wh -- wh -- am i afraid to ask this question ? max : probably . my father is maximus giambetti . milo : mine , too . diane : you got to be kidding me . maximus giambetti was one of the most notorious mobsters of modern time . milo : a legend . max : and so good at his job law enforcement was never able to convict him of anything . so , they had to settle for booting him out of the country . diane : why have n't you ever told me this ? max : it was never a factor who my father was . diane : but he was your father , and this is a very interesting missing puzzle piece . so , go ahead , enlighten me . max : well , after my parents divorced , i stayed in the states with my mother . milo : i did , too . diane : you had different mothers ? max : oh , his was wife number -- milo : i was four . diane : how many are we talking ? milo : six . max : seven . dad 's final divorce was finalized the day i left palermo . maximus : you call this an empire ?

[ scene_break ] [ knocking on door ] elizabeth : i was going to toss this and decided not to . thought maybe i 'd keep it as a memento of the trip to italy i almost took with you . jason : elizabeth , i 'm sorry . elizabeth : then i realized that you actually paid for this . so , here . it 's yours . you can do whatever you want with it . jason : i bought it for you . you can , you know , keep it -- trade it in . elizabeth : and do what ? go to italy by myself ? cash it in and go shopping ? jason : you can do whatever you want . elizabeth : it never turns out the way i want . jason : i was looking so forward to going away with you , spending time together alone , away from -- just everything that 's going on . but now more chaos has erupted because kate got shot , and sonny wants to start a war and i refuse -- elizabeth : and i 'm sure it 's very dire and urgent and , for the record , i realize i am being completely selfish here . but , still . i just have to ask -- does all this mean you 're never going to have time for me ? [ scene_break ] robin : it figures , right ? the second i decide that i really , really want to marry patrick , he finally believes that i do n't . i mean -- we give new meaning to the word `` irony . `` mac : i can understand why your first instinct was to reject marriage . it scares you . robin : it scares everybody . mac : to a degree . robin , look , i do n't want to sound like a shrink or anything , but you have some serious abandonment issues . right ? you 've had to learn early on how to be self - sufficient . you 've spent most of your life learning not to depend on anyone but yourself . i mean , to turn everything over -- your life , your baby -- to a flake like patrick must terrify you . robin : wait a minute . he is not a flake . mac : he turned down your proposal . robin : because he does n't think that i really want to marry him . mac : in patrick 's world , a person 's not allowed to change their mind . robin : it 's a lot more complicated than that and you know it . mac : it usually is with women . you 'd think i 'd know that by now . [ robin laughs ] robin : yeah , well , maxie and georgie and i tried to give you the best education possible . mac : and the rules change so often , i can hardly keep up . robin : well , see , then out of all people , you should be able to sympathize with patrick . mac : yeah , well , i might , but you 're heart 's on the line . robin : that 's why i love you . because no matter how big a fool i 've been , you always find a way to stick by me . i should have just listened to you the first time you told me to marry patrick when i had the chance . mac : okay , well , you can make up for it now by hearing me when i say everything is going to work out . robin : think so ? mac : i know so . [ scene_break ] matt : closed for renovations , huh ? nadine : what are you doing here ? matt : well , i ca n't just sit around and do nothing . it 's not in my nature . nadine : have the police been in contact with you about the fire ? matt : they found some sort of detonator or remnants thereof . nadine : do they think it 's arson ? matt : looks that way . nadine : guess someone 's not too happy with our suspicions into the drug ring . matt : yeah , well that 's an understatement . we could have both been killed . nadine : well , it makes it even more imperative that we catch these guys . do you remember anything at all before you passed out ? matt : anything ? uh , yes , actually i remember a pair of shoes . nadine : anything distinguishing ? matt : they were black . oh , and they had some sort of dragon insignia on them . yeah , it was weird . why ? nadine : i feel like i 've seen those somewhere recently . [ scene_break ] jerry : however intriguing the thought of torture at your lovely hands , i have no intention of injecting myself or my opinions into jax 's relationship with carly . i mean , who am i to give advice ? i mean , my personal life has pretty much been a personal disaster . until now , of course , darling . alexis : because we 're so perfectly matched . jerry : yes , where it counts . alexis : i was n't referring to sex . jerry : oh , we could go upstairs and have some . alexis : i ca n't . jerry : why not ? alexis : i 'm on the clock . jerry : i 'll be quick . alexis : no fun for me . jerry : i 'll be quick and creative . alexis : see , now that 's tempting . jerry : oh , come on , give into your basic nature . it 's good for the soul . alexis : well , why do n't you keep it warm for me . i 've got to go to work . i take it we wo n't be discussing your divorce today . jax : i 'm sorry -- i 'm sorry that i wasted your time . alexis : please do n't make a habit of it . call my office , and we 'll reschedule . in the meantime , i 'm going to advise you to stifle the urge to make an early christmas present out of your assets . jax : well , i 'm going to take my attorney 's advice . i 'm going to keep interests in both of the hotels . so , i guess when it comes to business , we 're stuck with each other .

[ diane laughs nervously ] [ scene_break ] jason : see , this is exactly why i did n't want us to start up again . it 's not -- it 's not fair , elizabeth . you deserve a full commitment from me , and that 's not something that i 'm able to give you . i 'm not necessarily proud of what i do , but i 'm running things now , and there 's a lot of people who depend on me . and if i screw up , they will die . okay ? i 'm not going to sit here and make excuses about that because it 's a life that i chose . and despite what sonny tried to do , once you make that choice , there is no turning back . so i ca n't -- i ca n't stand here and promise you that things will ever change or even get better . elizabeth : why not just give the organization back to sonny ? [ scene_break ] jax : what business do you have in this hotel ? nikolas : what ? anyone who walks through the door has to state their business ? jax : no , just you . nikolas : well , not that i owe you an explanation , jax , but i 'm here because carly 's assistant called me and asked me to stop by . jax : why ? nikolas : i guess i 'll find out when i go upstairs . jax : turn around and leave , nikolas . carly has nothing to say to you . nikolas : do you make a habit of speaking for carly ? or actually a better question would be -- is she aware of it ? jax : no , i just do n't want you snooping around my hotel . or manipulating carly into a business arrangement that she does n't need or want . nikolas : well , i 'm going to need to hear that from her . you see , i respect carly 's ability to open her mouth and say what she means . jax : i 'm warning you , nikolas . you back off while you still have the chance . [ scene_break ] nadine : housekeeping . nadine : housekeeping . anyone in here ?

[ lucky chuckles ] [ scene_break ] elizabeth : kate 's icu room was mob information central . i mean , just from working there i heard enough to know what 's going on . sonny wants revenge on whoever shot kate . what i do n't understand is what does holding on to an organization that you did n't even want in the first place give you ? why ca n't you just step down ? give it back to sonny . jason : i ca n't do that . elizabeth : why not ? jason : because things are too unstable right now . i do n't trust sonny to make the right decisions . he never does when he acts out of anger . and if i do n't do what i feel is right , and i just give sonny the business back , and that 's the easy way out , i 'm a coward . elizabeth : god , jason , that does n't even make sense . why is it cowardly to let yourself be happy ? jason : with everything i 've done , do i deserve to be happy ? i just wish we had made it to italy . [ scene_break ] carly : great , you guys are here . we can hammer out the details . jax : oh , yeah , let 's have a friendly conversation about hammering out the details . that sounds great . carly : i realize that we 've been operating with some tunnel vision . which is kind of surprising since you pride yourself with thinking out of the box . and nikolas , i do n't know you very well , but i do know you come from a very eccentric family -- kind of crazy . so , i would think that creative thinking would come naturally to you . and guess what ? it 's going to have to if we 're going to make this work . nikolas : i 'm almost afraid to ask . jax : then do n't , because whatever this is , it 's not going to happen anyway . carly : well , there you go making pronouncements again . and i 'm sure you 're operating with some good intentions . but you do n't get to tell me what to do . nikolas : well , i 'm still interested in hearing what you 're proposing . carly : good . because i 'm thinking about selling you half my shares of the metro court .

[ scene_break ] carly : nikolas made me an excellent offer , and i 'm inclined to take it . jax : well , selling out to nikolas is not in the best interest of the metro . nikolas : she would n't be selling out . carly : no , i love this place . i want to stay involved . nikolas would be buying half my shares . jax : like hell he is . [ scene_break ] jerry : dear , dear , dear , you are an intrepid little thing . playing detective , as if it was a game . as if no harm could possibly befall you . now at last for you -- i have a long history of amoral -- and some would say psychotic behavior . as your friend nikolas knows well . now let 's get down to business . you broke into my hotel room to find some illicit drugs . luckily for you i have some right here .

[ clears throat ] i was younger than you . i was n't remotely ready to have sex . actually , thinking about it now , i had sex for all the wrong reasons . you know , i was truly lacking in self - confidence . and i thought that by sleeping with a boy , that it meant ... pleasing him . and i thought having sex meant that they cared about me . when really , i think i wanted to feel like i mattered to someone . kristina : maybe you did . sam : no . i did n't . they were using me ; i was just too stupid to see it . but you are not going to make that same mistake , because you actually come from a family who loves you , and you know that . kristina : i guess . sam : i know that you have already thought this through and you 've made up your mind . i just was ... forget it . forget it . i told you i was n't going to lecture you , so i am not going to lecture you . kristina : no , it 's okay . i can take it . sam : krissy ... i really , really wish that you would wait until you were older . it just -- it 's just going to give you a chance to have a genuine ... a genuine emotional connection . kristina : kiefer and i already have that . sam : okay . i mean , maybe you do . i 'm just speaking for myself . because i was an adult before i had a relationship that was based on mutual love and respect . and i 'm just afraid that if you rush into sex , you are going to miss out on what 's truly special and what really , really feels right .

luke , irish accent : well , sure there 's been a wee mistake here , mate . officer . officer : like i said before , you heard the charges -- theft , larceny , and impersonatin ' a priest . luke : impersonatin ' ? ! but i am a priest ! officer : we 're particularly interested in the missin ' funds . luke : officer , i 've done nothin ' to warrant such attention from such fine gentlemen as yourselves . my name 's father lucius , and i 'm here to save young ronan o'reilly 's immortal soul . would you be backin ' me up now , son ? [ scene_break ] sonny : you 're the first to tell me to try with brenda again . robin : well , i 'm a big believer in following your instincts . sonny : yeah ? well , my instincts are kinda tellin ' me to try again . robin : well , this is me cheering you on . sonny : right . but , you know , brenda is afraid of opening that door again , and i got ta tell you i 'm terrified , too , because we were n't always good for each other . there was a lot of pain on both sides , and i do n't wan na go through that again . so maybe it 's best that i just do what she wants and just , you know , leave her alone . [ scene_break ] lulu : so kate called with 20 minutes worth of revisions on the lip color piece , and she did n't like any of the 15 scarves and accessories sent over , and i know that you are not listening to a word i 'm saying . maxie : there has to be a way to convince brenda to do this . lulu : jax is not gon na do it because of carly . wait . does carly know that brenda 's in town ? maxie : i do n't know . lulu : this wo n't be pretty .

[ scene_break ] jason : whoa , whoa , whoa . what are you doin ' ? spinelli : in researching all things girlish , the jackal came across pertinent information regarding flowers and how to get the most out of their blossoms and fragrance . turns out you have to change water every day . jason : okay , why do you care about flowers ? spinelli : because the divine one does . jason : okay . sit down . spinelli : no , no . i 'm sorry . she may be coming home any minute , and i ca n't leave the appropriately pink room -- jason : you need to put the vase down right now and sit . this is ridiculous , the way you 're acting . i 've seen it over and over , guys falling all over themselves for brenda . do not get sucked into that . spinelli : stone cold , i am entering the brenda vortex willingly and happily . jason : yeah , but you should n't be running around in circles for flowers . you got more important things to do , like finding me a lead on the balkan . do you understand that ? spinelli : yes , and research into the fiend known as the balkan proceeds apace , but i 'm sorry . i have to go now . jason : no , spinelli -- spinelli : the farmer 's market that sells the organic produce that she 's craving is closing soon , and will you water those for me ? thanks . [ scene_break ] brenda : hi , carly . i thought i might run into you . carly : you 're in my husband 's office . brenda : yes , i am . ahem . congratulations on your marriage and on your baby girl . carly : what are you doin ' here ? i thought jason was baby - sitting you in rome . brenda : yes . he is , you know , very overprotective , as you know , and he forced me to come back here with him . i fought him on it because i actually would rather not be here right now , but , you know , jason can be very stubborn . but he is the best at what he does , so in any case , here i am . carly : here you are . brenda : yeah . carly : and i bet you guys have a lot to catch up on . jax : did you want to see me ? carly : no , nothin ' that ca n't wait . enjoy the reunion . you 're a traitor . max : mrs. j ... [ scene_break ] brenda : i do n't think she likes me . jax : i think the feeling 's mutual . brenda : ha ! i ca n't believe you 're married . i ca n't believe you have a baby with carly . [ scene_break ] sonny : when i was in rome , i got a glimpse of brenda 's life when she 's on top of her profession , using her celebrity to give , you know , these kids a voice that -- you know , would n't have one if it was n't for her . robin : yeah . that 's very admirable . sonny : yeah . yeah . i 'm very happy that she 's doin ' that , but i 'm not surprised , because , you know , brenda was always a lot more than how she looked , but not everybody thought that . robin : you did . sonny : and you did , too . anyway , you know what ? she 's with this boyfriend now or not . i do n't know what 's goin ' on in that -- what 's that guy 's name ? robin : what 's ... [ sonny laughs ] robin : yeah , only you would n't know . murphy sinclair . you know , he 's like a big movie star . sonny : yeah , he 's an actor . whatever . robin : yeah . sonny : he seems like a nice enough guy who loves her , and even if they did break up , it would n't take much to get 'em back together , and if this murphy actor guy is who brenda wants , then that 's who she should have . robin : what about you , sonny ? what do you want ? sonny : i want brenda to be happy . i want to believe that i 'm the man who can give her that . [ scene_break ] [ luke laughs ] luke : no , i think i understand what 's happenin ' now . you see , it 's not the first time that i 've been mistaken for a scoundrel , an american scoundrel by the name of spencer . it seems that we bear some kind of resemblance . now , i 've seen a picture of the lad , and i 'll tell you , i do n't think that we look alike . i think the good lord graced me with a much more handsome visage . officer : we 're takin ' you in for questioning . luke : well , i 'd like a little backup here , son . tell the good officers how long we 've known each other , you been in my parish your whole life , and that i 've devoted myself to my vocation . tell them . lucky , irish accent : i have no idea what this joker 's talkin ' about . i do n't go to church , never seen him before today . luke : ahh . officer : right . so you 're comin ' in with us . luke : ohh . it 's gon na be like that , is it , young ronan ? well , i hope that the lord makes you see the error of your ways . [ line rings ] [ cell phone ringing ] tracy : what do you want ? lucky , normal accent : well , hello to you , too . tracy : are you calling to give me a report on luke 's whereabouts ? because i do n't wan na know . i do n't care what happened to him . lucky : you sure about that ? tracy : did you find him ? lucky : in a jail in ireland . for reasons i ca n't get into right now , i 'm not in a position to help him , but you could . tracy : well , i 'm not interested . however , i think i 'm gon na have my lawyers contact the authorities in ireland , so why do n't you give me his exact whereabouts and the name he 's using , okay ? [ scene_break ] max : hey , watch where you 're goin ' , dummkopf . milo : sorry . little distracted here . max : yeah ? what are you lookin ' at ? milo : pretty darn hot , huh ? max : wow . yeah . milo : mm - hmm . max : what the hell 's wrong with you , huh ? real men do n't buy fashion magazines . milo : come on . give it back to me . max : when i 'm done with it . beat it . [ scene_break ] brenda : she 's beautiful . jax : yeah . well , i think so . brenda : she 's definitely your child . she 's blonde and perfect . [ both laugh ] jax : well , not only is she the most gorgeous kid ever , she 's also the smartest . brenda : oh , you can tell that ? jax : yeah . just look at her . i mean , you can tell she knows all the answers to the mysteries of the universe . brenda : oh , i 'm impressed . jax : yeah . you wait . she 's gon na set a whole new standard for women all across the globe . and if she does n't , you know , if she 's not very smart , then i guess that 's okay , too . brenda : well , you can never be a great man if you 're not a great father , so i 'm really happy for you and -- what 's your wife 's name ? jax : carly . brenda : carly . jax : i 'm happy for you , too . you 've made an incredible life for yourself . brenda : yeah . i guess you leaving me was n't as much of a disaster as i thought it was , right ? jax : so no regrets ? brenda : i would n't say that , but the things that i love definitely outweigh any fleeting regrets i may have . jax : and what are those ? brenda : things i love . i love my charity , and i love the kids that i work with , and i love living in rome a lot . so life 's been really good to me after port charles , so i guess what i really should say to you is , well , thank you , i guess . jax : you 're welcome , i guess . [ scene_break ] jason : yeah . just let me know when the shipment gets in , okay , bernie ? thanks . carly , what 's wrong ? carly : what 's wrong ? like you ca n't figure it out . jason : no , and please do n't make me . i already have a headache . carly : how could you bring brenda back to port charles and not warn me ? jason : whoa . that was n't part of the original plan . carly : i mean , there are a thousand guys that are more than happy to hold her hand and get her through anything . she does n't need you , jason . i need you . jason : okay , i 'm sorry i did n't call . i was in work mode . carly : you were in brenda mode , and everything else takes a back seat . you were supposed to be different . jason : this is starting to feel like a conversation i ca n't win . carly : you do n't owe brenda anything . you were married to her for 5 minutes . you 're not at her permanent beck and call , and , hell , i do n't expect brenda to realize that , but i would expect you to realize that . you 're letting her use you . jason : use me ? carly : yes , use you . brenda is a spoiled brat who has forgotten a toy , and now she wants to play with it again . now , who that is , i do n't know if it 's jax or sonny , but she wants back in , so she calls you . why could n't you just say no ? hell , why could n't you keep her in rome ? jason : what ? do you think i want brenda livin ' with me ? she drives me crazy . i would n't have brought brenda back here if it had n't have been the only way to save her life . [ scene_break ] dante : well , i guess michael called himself in sick to school today , and the principal called carly , and then she showed up to figure out what 's goin ' on . lulu : is he okay ? dante : she made him go to school . but now she wants to petition the judge for michael to go and live with her and jax . lulu : oh . well , how do you feel about that ? dante : i tried to talk her out of it . carly is not one of judge carroll 's favorite people . i mean , as awkward as the living situation is , i think michael is better off and more at ease with me , us . lulu : oh , no , no , no . tell me you did n't tell her that . dante : no . that would have been like putting a match to gasoline . lulu : yeah . pretty much . dante : so , you know , that is taken care of , but the current problem is how is it gon na affect michael if i prove that sonny put the bomb in johnny 's car that almost killed kristina ? [ scene_break ] robin : i knew that when i told you i saw brenda in africa , you were more affected than you let on . sonny : well , i 'm not gon na lie to you , you know . it got to me . robin : yeah . you tried to play it off , but you could n't fool me . sonny : well , it 's like it opened up a lot . you know , i started thinking about her a lot , and i taught myself for a long time not to think about her . then you bring her name up , and , you know , you got all these memories , good , bad . robin : you lived your life very big together . sonny : very big , all - consuming , and it was n't always good , you know ? but that 's what we had right from the start . robin : yeah . it was obvious that you two would either become the greatest loves of all time or you would end in disaster . you know , no in between . sonny : well , i 'm thinkin ' , you know , maybe this time , we got a chance to get it right , as long as we 're both brave enough to take that chance . [ scene_break ] luke : ah , mr. o'reilly . me prayers have been answered . i had faith that you 'd be a - comin ' . lucky , irish accent : father . thought you might be missin ' these . luke : ah , thank you , son . i 'm lost without me bible . what 's the plan ? lucky : there 's no plan . luke : well , there 's got ta be a plan . i ca n't just stroll out of here , man of the cloth or not . lucky : i 'm undercover . there 's nothin ' i can do . luke : well , you can work your interpol connections . lucky : i already called them for my release . if i stick my neck out for you , may as well wear a big sign on my chest that says , `` i 'm not ronan . `` i 'm sorry . you 're on your own . luke : i understand . well , then what be you doin ' here , mr. o'reilly ? lucky : i called tracy . you know , since she thinks i 'm lookin ' for you at her behest , thought she might step up . luke : well , it was a good move . when 's me wee darlin ' comin ' ? lucky : she 's not . in fact , she threatened to pile on charges to help the irish out . luke , normal accent : damn , that woman can hold a grudge . [ irish accent ] and here i was a - thinkin ' that absence 'd make her heart grow warmer . lucky : well , i would n't rule it out . she did hesitate a little . i mean , it was just for a second , but i heard it . luke : well , with tracy , a second 's a long time . i 'm gon na take that as encouragement . i 'm gon na think positive about it . yeah , but i ca n't do nothin ' from in here . last chance . you sure you do n't want to help me out , mr. o'reilly ? lucky : i 'd love to , but i 've got my own problems to worry about , like finding the woman who can blow my cover , convincing her not to . [ scene_break ] sam : spinelli . i got here as fast as i could . is everything okay ? spinelli : the jackal urgently requests fair samantha 's assistance , as she is the only one that possesses the gift of reason when it comes to stone cold at his most stubborn . sam : oh . of course . what 's goin ' on ? spinelli : okay , well , as you know , we have a new guest at casa de stone cold , one lovely of visage and sensitive of nature . sam : ah , brenda . yeah . mm - hmm . spinelli : anyway , she 's a delicate flower , and she requires care and handling , but stone cold does n't understand that . he treats her harshly when he should be doing more to see to her comfort . sam : more ? jason keeping brenda safe is an entire inconvenience to his lifestyle . that 's not enough ? spinelli : well , the divine one hides her vulnerability behind a charmingly tough exterior , but it is a front . she needs reassurances in these times of danger , maybe even a distraction , not that i 'm suggesting any sort of romantic attachment , 'cause everyone knows that stone cold 's heart belongs only to you . sam : well , brenda may need reassurance , but i do n't . i had a moment of insecurity , but i 'm over it . spinelli : great . that 's great to hear . so you 'll talk to him ? sam : spinelli , look , here are the facts , okay ? jason and brenda , they rub each other the wrong way , to put it very lightly . he is keeping her safe , letting her live in his house . if i were you , i would n't expect anything more than that . and also , i would n't worry . i 'm sure brenda wo n't have any trouble finding whatever support she might need . [ scene_break ] jason : then we got back to port charles . her hotel suite , her apartment was trashed . this is not a game , carly . carly : okay , fine , but brenda is a big , international celebrity . her fashion house ca n't provide security ? jason : well , they do , but it 's not good enough . brenda 's been gotten to way too many times . carly : then why not protect her in rome ? why the hell did you have to bring her back here ? jason : because europe is the balkan 's territory . carly : who ? jason : the balkan is the guy who 's after brenda . i want him to come to port charles . it 's to my advantage . carly : what the hell 'd she do to him ? jason : well , the assumption is that he 's pissed because brenda and her charity shine way too many lights on his operation . i personally think there 's way more to it , but she 's not talkin ' , and i ca n't prove anything . carly : you see ? right there . that 's why i ca n't stand her . she has information that would help you save her , but she wo n't tell you , because she 's too consumed in her own drama . i hate this . i hate that brenda is back , ruining everything . jason : she 's not gon na stay here , if you 're worried . carly : and how can you be sure ? jason : because once the balkan is taken care of , she said she 's gon na be on the first flight home . carly : yeah . well , she may just have found a reason to stay . jason : what does that mean ? carly : i just saw brenda in jax 's office right before i came here . i 'm afraid he 's fallen back in love with her . [ scene_break ] jax : tell me about your charity work . brenda : okay . what do you wan na know ? jax : well , what are you most proud of ? brenda : i just helped to build this school for girls in africa . we save a lot a girls from the brothels . it 's great work , and it breaks my heart in all the right places . jax : that 's wonderful . brenda : yeah . i have a partner , really , who does most of the work . her name is suzanne . she 's really incredible . we have to do a lot of press , you know , to keep the money coming in , so -- i guess what i really wan na say is thank you for all of your generosity . jax : i did n't realize you knew . brenda : i do . jax : well , try to help any way i can . but i hope you 're not just saving the world . i hope that you 're happy in your personal life as well . brenda : yeah , i am . there was a great guy , and -- jax : would that be the famous murphy sinclair ? brenda : oh , are you paying attention a little bit ? jax : here and there . brenda : uh - huh . yes . there was murphy . jax : but not anymore ? brenda : no . jax : well , i 'm sorry . brenda : it 's okay . jax : for a couple of reasons , actually . you know , one , no one wears happy better than you . brenda : ha . what 's 2 ? jax : now that you 're not with murphy , you might be vulnerable to outside influences . brenda : oh , right . outside influences . jax : yeah . and there 's a part of me that -- i 'm really happy to see you , but i just hoped that you would n't come back to port charles and get , you know , dragged back into your past . brenda : oh , there 's -- trust me . i look back on my life here in port charles , and i realize there was nothing bad about my past , so i have a whole new appreciation for the word `` home `` these days . jax : so are you planning to stay ? brenda : no . no . course not . it was great to see you . jax : yeah . thanks for stopping by . brenda : yes . okay , well , see you later , daddy . [ scene_break ] robin : stone and i always rooted for you and brenda . i think he 'd be happy to know there 's still a possibility . sonny : i do n't think there 's a possibility . i mean , brenda turned me down last time i talked to her . robin : look , i love brenda , okay ? i always will , but let 's be honest . she came to see you to tell you that she does n't want to see you anymore . that 's your cue to change her mind . sonny : and i tried . look , i thought i put it away , the hope of us getting back together again , but i walk into my house . she 's there . she came back from rome , and we still had , you know , the history and the spark and the whole thing . i just , you know , do n't wan na let brenda get away again . [ scene_break ] lucky : siobhan was the girlfriend of a man o'reilly offed . she came after him -- or me with , you know , probably murderous intent . but she changed her mind , decided to save me . luke : did she , now ? lucky : we spent some time together , and she was resourceful , even brave . she 's a lovely girl . luke : is she ? and how is it that you managed to make the turnaround with her , mr. o'reilly ? lucky : well , she knew ronan , so i had to explain the changes since then , so i gave her a version of the truth , that i hit rock bottom one night , realized that i 'd gone as low as i could go without completely fallin ' off the map , that this was n't what i wanted with my life , was n't what god wanted for me , so i dusted myself off and resolved to be a better person whenever possible . luke : that was a good move . that particular scheme has worked very well for mr. sonny corinthos all these years . lucky : the problem is i think siobhan may be back to square one . luke : murderous intent . lucky : she overheard a conversation i had with dante and lulu . luke : you 're draggin ' lulu into a dustup with the balkan ? lucky : i did n't drag lulu in anything . come on . you know how she is . she just showed up with dante . he was gon na act as a backup , but he could n't pry her off with a crowbar . look , they 're both gone . you do n't have to worry . the point is siobhan feels doubly betrayed , and she has knowledge that could seriously blow me out of the water . luke : well , then you know what you have to do now . lucky : i 'm open to suggestions . luke : do what it is that i do whenever a woman wants to shoot me where i stand . give her a look that she can pour on a waffle . break out the candles . turn on the violins , and pour on the romance , mr. o'reilly . [ scene_break ] dante : yeah , that 's right . i need the forensic evidence from the zacchara car bombing , soon as you can . thanks . lulu : hey , sorry . i had to run . dante : no , no , no , no . i barged in your place of business unasked . it 's okay . lulu : no , i actually like it . i like that you want to discuss things with me . dante : well , you 're the woman i love , the woman i share my life with , but you 're probably bored to tears of all the conflict of business . lulu : no . sonny is a mobster , and he 's your father , and you 're a cop , so the conflict is permanent , and it 's spurred this time by you being reassigned to johnny 's car bombing . dante : but he is guilty . i mean , he pretty much admitted it to my face , and if i prove it and convict sonny , that 's gon na tear michael 's life apart again . i mean , morgan 's and kristina 's life will be torn apart as well , but michael 's more invested in what happens to sonny . lulu : well , i mean , if you do n't work this case to the fullest , is n't that gon na send the wrong message ? because the whole point of trying to get sonny convicted for claudia 's murder was to teach michael that the law works and that it should be respected and , if it is n't , then there 's gon na be consequences . dante : that was the message , but it got garbled in translation , obviously , so you 're right . i should just work the case and start off by asking sonny some questions . i 'll see you later . tracy : detective . dante : tracy . tracy : hi , sweetheart . lulu : hi . tracy : i 'm sorry to bother you . i just heard from lucky . he found your father . he 's being held in a jail in ireland . i thought you might wan na contact him . lulu : is he okay ? tracy : i assume he is . i do n't know . lulu : okay . well , then it 's on you to handle . tracy : i personally do n't give -- lulu : yeah . no , i heard you , and i think that you need to get your butt in gear and go chase down my dad , because we both know that 's what you wan na do . [ scene_break ] maxie : hey . what 's all that ? spinelli : fresh , organically grown produce to tempt the taste buds and further the health of the divine ms. barrett . maxie : seriously , spinelli , brenda 's not divine . she 's mortal just like the rest of us . spinelli : i happen to think the beauteous one is in a category all her own . not only does she embody physical perfection , but her soul is empathetic and pure , as evidenced by her determination to continue working on behalf of exploited children despite grave peril to life and lovely limb . maxie : oh , my god . sounds like you 're in love with her . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] suzanne : it 's suzanne . brenda : come in . suzanne : i just got a call from cartullo . we have to talk about scheduling . brenda : i ca n't talk about photo shoots right now . i 'm kind of in the middle of something . suzanne : you 're sitting on a chair . brenda : i 'm having a life - changing realization . suzanne : have it on your own time . you have an obligation to the fashion house that keeps your face in the public . brenda : i know . i always work . but that does n't mean i do n't get to have a life of my own . suzanne : well , i 'm all in favor of you having a life of your own . that 's why we 're here in port charles , to keep you alive . brenda : you wan na know what 's going on ? suzanne : well , i 'm afraid to ask . you have n't been very predictable lately . brenda : heh . suzanne : what is it ? brenda : i have been hiding from myself for a very long time . i do n't know if you 're aware of this or not , but i just feel like it might be time for me to have the courage to face that . [ scene_break ] lucky , normal accent : i 'm glad you 're here . siobhan : i bet . probably be anxious to hear whether i 've given you up to the balkan 's men . lucky : you would n't be here if you had . siobhan : you do n't know me well enough to have any idea what i 'd do . maybe i 'm lyin ' now . maybe i 'm playin ' games . lucky : i do n't blame you for being angry . i would be , too . and i apologize . i lied to you because i did n't see another choice . siobhan : there are lies , and there are lies . you could have convinced me you were ronan without makin ' me like you , givin ' me some sob story about your redemption . i mean , you knew i was vulnerable . lucky : i tried to tell you in the alley . i was honest . i was honest about everything i could be , everything i went through and how it changed me , siobhan . all of it was real . [ scene_break ] suzanne : i ca n't keep up with you . first you do n't wan na come to port charles . you 're kicking and screaming . `` it 's an emotional trap , `` you say . and now you 're rushing into something full speed ahead . brenda : no , i 'm not rushing , and i was n't strong enough before , but i know what i want now . suzanne : which is ? brenda : i just want to be able to love who i love and know that i 'm not gon na lose myself . suzanne : and is this an emotional philosophy , or is there a flesh - and - blood candidate ? brenda : there 's a flesh - and - blood candidate . [ scene_break ] spinelli : jackal 's not in love with brenda . what would be the point ? she would n't love me back . maxie : i happen to think you 're extremely loveable . spinelli : yes , well , apparently not loveable enough . maxie : spinelli , we broke up because of me , not you . brenda would be lucky to have you . not that i want her to . i mean , i have to say it 's kind of disturbing to hear you talk about her the way you used to talk about me . spinelli : you know , i do n't think this conversation is beneficial to either of us . and time is short . i have to hurry home and prepare this healthy repast for the divine ms. barrett . [ scene_break ] lulu : yes , i 'm trying to find out if you have my father in custody , luke spencer . what do you mean you ca n't tell me now ? okay . i 'm gon na call back tomorrow . sam : hey , lulu . i 'm returning these outfits that maxie had loaned me . it turns out i wo n't be needing them at all . lulu : oh , really ? well , i mean , they 're not really your style , but you could pull 'em off . sam : actually i do n't even want to look at them , because it 's a really bad reminder of a dumb impulse that i had . lulu : what happened ? sam : okay , i got insecure about brenda 's relationship with jason , but i 'm over it . i 'm gon na rise above it . jason loves me , and i have decided to trust that . [ scene_break ] suzanne : well , this does n't make me happy . jason : what ? suzanne : you 're here , and brenda just left . jason : well , she 's got max and milo . suzanne : that does n't help . i do n't have half as much confidence in those two goofballs as you do . jason : well , i ca n't be with her 24/7 . you have to trust that they 're gon na do a good job . suzanne : jason , they 're so besotted with brenda that all they can do is open the door for her and let her walk through it to god knows where . jason : well , just try not to worry about it . suzanne : maybe not about her physical safety , but how worried should i be that she 's decided she loves sonny and she 's on her way to tell him ? [ scene_break ] lucky : i was trying to protect you . i mean , i knew that you 'd already been through enough without getting involved in my undercover work . siobhan : you 're a cop here to do a job . i was a means to an end . let 's not insult each other by pretending any different . lucky : well , maybe it started out that way , but you ca n't deny that there was a connection between us . i did n't expect that . i genuinely like you , siobhan . siobhan : you 're a liar , and i hope you burn in hell . [ scene_break ] jax : hey . glad you got my call . carly : did you have a nice visit with brenda ? jax : i 'm sorry . okay , i 'm sorry that you walked in . i had no idea that she was coming over . carly : did you get a good look ? no . if you love me , you will never see brenda again . [ scene_break ] lulu : well , i would have probably had the same reaction if dante had jumped on an international flight to rescue his ex . i mean , that has to be unsettling . sam : yeah . but you know what 's ironic ? jason actually seems like the only one who 's not bowled over by brenda . i mean , he would take a bullet for her because he would have to 'cause it 's his job , not because of the way he feels about her , you know . i mean , spinelli , on the other hand , that 's a little different . he seems to be kind of blinded by her . he 's , like , walking into walls and stuff . same with max and milo . i 've seen it happen . i 'm not sure about sonny and jax or how they feel about her or what 's goin ' on , but i do n't know . i bet nothing 's changed . lulu : i do n't know about sonny , but i know that jax is with carly , so ... sam : is it weird that i kind of wish that they had have been together ? i mean , i just wish that maybe jax or sonny or murphy sinclair would be the one to rescue brenda , anyone but jason . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'll tell you i 'm done worrying about sonny and brenda . that 's for them to figure out . suzanne : well , you 're probably smart . none of us can control love or destiny or whatever it is that 's driving sonny and brenda . but what i can control is her professional life , and to that end , cartullo wants her in paris next tuesday for a shoot . jason : she ca n't go . suzanne : she has to go . jason : no , she ca n't . the balkan can get to her in europe . that 's why i brought her back here , so she 's gon na stay here . suzanne : jason , should n't you want her gone ? i mean , she 's only been here a couple of days , and already she 's wreaking havoc on everyone around her , herself most of all . [ scene_break ] brenda : sonny . dante : heh . what the hell ? brenda : what are you doin ' here ? sonny : oh , this is perfect . i wanted you two to meet . brenda barrett , this is dante falconeri , my son .

[ monitors beeping ] duke : i know you wo n't believe me , but -- i never wanted to hurt you or your mother . robin -- you , of all people -- you know how much i love anna . anna : i need you to check the hospitals , the pharmacies , clinics -- just i want to check to see if there 's been any break - ins because -- officer : got it . anna : maybe supplies missing . obviously , he 's getting medical attention from someone . officer : okay . anna : hi . you here to volunteer for the search for scully ? if so , i accept . thank you . come in . mcbain : unless you want him brought back bludgeoned . otherwise , i got an update on your other missing person -- heather webber . [ knock on door ] steve : all right , all right ! i 'm coming ! jason . i ca n't think of any other reason you 'd want to see me unless this is about my mother . jason : has she been here ? todd : hey . did you find heather ? how hard is it to find one lone crazy lady ? uh , i 'll call you back . carly : [ sighs ] i had the strangest dream . [ breathes deeply ] except it was n't a dream , huh ? really happened . maxie : this is n't stalking , exactly . i 'm just a concerned friend . i mean , spinelli is so naive . just because a person seems smart and funny and interesting does n't mean they are all those things . [ sighs ] ellie : maxie ? maxie : oh , hey ! uh , allie , right ? ellie : it 's `` ellie , `` with an `` e `` -- damian 's date from the wedding . maxie : right . i 'm sorry . so , uh , did you enjoy yourself ? ellie : well , it was certainly unorthodox . when the bride revealed she was really an alternate personality and had already married someone else , i was riveted . maxie : it was kind of a disaster . ellie : are you kidding ? it was one of the best dates of my life . maxie : really ? even with no reception after ? i mean , spinelli must have taken you home pretty early . ellie : actually , damian and i spent the night together . spinelli : oh ! hey . whoa ! sorry for the delay . i was in the shower when you called . sam : thanks for coming . spinelli : yeah , sure . what 's the reason for the urgent summons ? sam : jason 's keeping something from me , and i think you know what it is . in here , the oven , cookies . maxie : you and spinelli slept together on the first date ? ellie : i did not mean that the way it sounded . damian and i spent the evening at the observatory . maxie : that 's a relief . ellie : i 'm a member of the port charles astronomers club . we had a spectacular view of venus . right now , it 's only 4 degrees north of the moon , so , with clear skies -- maxie : of venus . ellie : well , in addition to the whole , ever - changing panorama of the night sky . but that 's not what you meant by that . uh , i take it you 're relieved that damian and i did n't have intercourse ? spinelli : you know , while jason is the truest of friends and mentors , he 's not overly communicative , so , i mean , there 's plenty he chooses not to share . sam : such as ? spinelli : [ choking ] could i trouble you for a glass of water ? i am really dehydrated after a long night of -- sam : spinelli , it 's obvious you 're stalling ! spinelli : no , no ! i assure you , i am legitimately parched . i had an evening full of diverting conversation at the observatory -- sam : can you please just tell me what 's going on with jason ? spinelli : look , you assume me to be in a position of knowledge that i do not have . sam : okay . well , then help me figure it out . spinelli : well , i 've been a little distracted as of late , so i may have missed some details here and there , so maybe you could enlighten me as to the nature of your concern ? sam : okay . jason came over , and he said that he had something important to tell me , and then it did n't have anything to do with the lies that elizabeth said about the two of them being together . spinelli : i was n't aware that elizabeth had spoken untruths . sam : oh , yeah , she tried to manipulate me into going through with the divorce . spinelli : how did you learn of this deception ? sam : 'cause she came here herself and gave a full confession . that 's really not the point , though . spinelli : yeah , but it is encouraging that jason 's heart has not been captured by another . sam : getting a little off - topic here . spinelli : oh , i disagree ! i mean , it seems that you and jason are having a bit of a thaw , and that -- sam : whatever jason came to say , he did n't say it , and i think you know what it is ! spinelli : why would i ? sam : because if he were to confide in anyone , it would be you . jason : has heather made any attempt to contact you ? steve : not since the last time she called me from ferncliff during the pathogen scare . jason : she 's fixated on you . it would just , you know , make sense that she would try to get in touch with you . steve : well , come on in . feel free to search the place . look , i already told the police they have my full cooperation . the same goes for you . i mean , anyone who can find my mother and return her to ferncliff is doing me a favor . jason : i 'm sorry . i just -- i had to check . steve : why ? what 's happened ? jason : i - i ca n't get into that . steve : is this about the baby ? look , i 'm the reason you know about tea delgado . and the fact is , she had a baby on the same night in the same approximate location as sam , and you seem to think that my mother made a switch . jason : okay . it 's -- it 's confirmed . steve : how is that possible ? jason : the dna test . the baby ms . delgado took back to llanview is sam 's . steve : does ms . delgado know about this ? jason : john mcbain went to tell her , but your mother was already there . steve : in llanview ? jason : she convinced ms . delgado to hire her as a nanny . now the baby 's gone -- and so is heather . mcbain : webber was using her cousin susan moore 's name as an alias . tea needed childcare , and heather -- `` susan `` -- she had references . anna : yeah , but heather 's used a forger before . i 'm not surprised she 'd go back to doing it again . mcbain : now heather 's taken the baby , and she 's disappeared , all right ? llanview police are looking everywhere . they 're searching . they 're in the train stations , they 're at the airports , but they got nothing . so i was thinking maybe she came back here . maybe she came to someplace she 'd know . maybe she 's been seen in port charles . anna : no , nothing . nothing so far . god , that poor woman -- tea . she must be out of her mind . there 's nothing more terrifying than thinking your child is in danger . mcbain : she blames herself . she thinks she should have seen through heather . anna : i know how she feels . duke : oh , robin -- you were such an engaging child . always so bright , so inquisitive . ' course , you were the center of your mother 's life . heather webber is responsible for all of this , that despicable woman . she gave your mother hope that you were alive . she checked herself in here , hoping that she would find you . so typical of anna . put herself at risk . broke my heart when i saw her on the monitor just before she opened the door of the decoy 's room . the look of joy on her face when she thought she was gon na find you . and the horrible loss and devastation when she realized it was just a mistake . i wanted to throw open the door and show you to her . but i ca n't . i ca n't do that . not yet . anna : i have now what i think is a personal vendetta against heather . that 's why i purposefully removed myself from the search for her , because the last thing i want is for that psycho bitch to get off on a technicality . mcbain : but how do you really feel ? anna : [ chuckles ] how i feel is , i wish i had my old job , where i could terminate with extreme prejudice . mcbain : i understand the impulse . anna : and now she 's abducted a child . mcbain : yeah , looks that way . anna : but i 'm missing something . why did she go to llanview ? i mean , is this , uh -- random , or did she take this particular child for a reason ? i mean , what is the connection between tea delgado and heather ? carly : okay , i -- todd : breakfast is served . carly : wow . this is so nice , but i have to get home to josslyn . todd : joss is fine . she 's had cereal with a cut up banana . she 's on her way to preschool . carly : you talked to my nanny ? todd : are you kidding ? mercedes is my new b.f.f . carly : well , that 's great . i mean , honestly , thank you , but i have to get going . todd : carly , i went to all the trouble of calling room service . we 've got scrambled eggs -- firm but not dry -- extra - crispy bacon . we 've got wheat toast , seasonal fruit , perfectly ripe . we 've got juice , no pulp , and half caf , half decaf . carly : you really have to work on your stalking issues , you know ? todd : oh , no , i 've completely dealt with those . now i 'm just very observant . carly : thank you . todd : you 're welcome . carly : i 'm just not really hungry after finding out your boyfriend 's been cheating on you for months . todd : okay , this is a perfectly good meal . can we not ruin it by talking about that worm ? carly : i ca n't help it . i ca n't stop thinking that there 's just something else that johnny 's not telling me . duke : i miss our talks , robin . you were so perceptive as a child . although sometimes you used to worry me . i thought you could see right through me when i was n't being entirely honest . well , i never intended any malice . i had the same motive then as i have now . your mother -- i promise you , i will reunite you with anna . but not now . it has to be carefully orchestrated . dr. obrecht : it 's getting late . duke : i know . i wanted to tell her my plans , even though i know she ca n't hear me . dr. obrecht : blame the americans -- those incompetents at ferncliff . she has been rendered comatose thanks to their negligence . duke : well , yes , but to be entirely fair , the psychiatrist was an australian , although a total incompetent . dr. obrecht : to have exposed her to such a punishing dose of electroshock , the results are not surprising . unfortunately , they may be irreversible . duke : that 's why she must remain here . she 's in no condition to be reunited with her mother . anna : does tea have any idea why she was targeted by heather ? you know , did she take this child for a particular reason ? mcbain : heather and tea crossed paths the night of the storm last june , all right ? not far from heather 's preferred base of operations on route 59 . anna : the shack ? mcbain : the shack , right . the same time tea , she 's giving birth to her child at a bus stop at the side of the road -- anna : oh , god . mcbain : but the baby 's not breathing , so todd runs off with the baby , searching for some help . anna : and heather would have been there because she was burying anthony zacchara 's body . mcbain : manning finds his way to the shack , and there , someone performs infant cpr . anna : heather ? oh . well , that would explain the connection between heather and todd . mcbain : part of it , anyway . anna : but what happened that night that would give heather such a hold over todd manning ? todd : johnny cheated on you because that 's who he is . he 's a spineless coward . he only married connie to get back at sonny . that should tell you exactly who johnny zacchara is . carly : can we not go there ? todd : what ? johnny and connie are perfect for one another . names are all rhymey , and they have their own particular misery that i hope they inflict on one another for the rest of their lives . carly : everyone 's thinking that johnny took advantage of kate 's mental illness . todd : okay . he did 'cause he 's a dirtbag , and you can do better . carly : the marriage makes sense from connie 's perspective . she has to marry johnny so sonny ca n't throw her into shadybrook , but why johnny ? todd : you are a beautiful , sexy , rich woman . did i say that you were beautiful ? you 're beautiful . you own your own business . you have so much going for you . you can do better than johnny zacchara . much better . steve : i mean , i wish i could say that the child will be okay , but with my mother , there 's no telling . does sam know ? jason : i was about to tell her . then i got a call about heather kidnapping the baby . steve : so sam does n't know her son is still alive . jason : i just did n't think it was fair to tell sam right now when all she can do is worry and be afraid . sam : you 're really disappointing me , spinelli . you would lie to me , your partner ? spinelli : look , i can not withhold what i do not know , and since jason has not made me privy to this hypothetical important information , there 's nothing that i can tell you . sam : i do n't believe you . i think your first loyalty is to jason . spinelli : no , that is not true . i -- i am loyal to you both , as evidenced by my continued efforts to help you get past your differences and reunite ! sam : okay . well , it would help to know what 's going on with jason . spinelli : okay . well , you said yourself that he came over here with the intention of addressing the subject , right ? sam : yes , but we were interrupted because kristina was in trouble . spinelli : oh , is she okay ? sam : yes , she 's fine . stop trying to change the subject . spinelli : well , forgive me , but you brought it up . i -- sam : focus , spinelli , please ! help me figure out what jason was trying to tell me last night ! spinelli : i do n't have psychic powers . i ca n't tell you with any certainty . sam : okay , well , listen . he got a phone call , and then he left with no explanation . was he calling you ? were you on the other end ? spinelli : no , no . he was definitely not . i was at the observatory with my -- she 's a friend . we were stargazing -- or , she was . i was more admiring her profile . sam : okay , i think it 's really great that you -- spinelli : i 'm not implying that we 're in a relationship ! it 's just a first date . sam : well , jason got a phone call , and he left . where did he go ? spinelli : i have no idea . but i 'm sure that once he 's taken care of what he needs to take care of , he 'll talk to you . i 'll be at the office , okay ? sam : you are not going anywhere . spinelli : i 'm afraid i can be of no further help . sam : you have n't been of any help , anyway . i know you , spinelli ! you 're being all dodgy . you know something , and you 've got to tell me . maxie : why would i care what you and spinelli do in the dark ? ellie : well , just to clarify , we did , indeed , observe venus on display in the night sky . we did n't , however , have sexual relations . maxie : good . great ! i 'm , um -- sorry if i 'm being intrusive . ellie : no , the fault is mine . unfortunately , interpersonal skills are not really my strong point . i 'm a whiz in the lab , you know , but it 's easy to tell a ribose from a 2-deoxyribose . maxie : sure . do it all the time . ellie : but people and what they say or what they do n't say but they imply without words , it 's all very hard for me to decipher , so forgive me if i 've got this wrong , but it does seem like you 're concerned with the possibility of damian and i having intercourse last night , which just seems odd , considering the fact that you 're married to that guy who 's in jail -- the wrench murderer . maxie : oh , i would n't call him the wrench murderer . there was only one wrench . and besides , it was like a one - time thing . he had a plea bargain . he 's only in prison for like five years . ellie : oh , that 's got to be a great relief . maxie : seriously . when you consider he could have gotten like 20 to life . ellie : ooh . maxie : but that 's not the point . that is not the point . the point is , i 'm very married . um -- spinelli 's just important to me . he 's been hurt in the past , and i do n't want that to happen again . spinelli : i do n't know anything -- not a thing . i 'm a blank slate , a tabula rasa . now , if you 'll excuse me , i -- sam : no , i wo n't . you 've got that guilty look about you . spinelli : well , i confess , i did have three doughnuts for breakfast , which is far above my allotted carb count . sam : wait a minute . is this about that case that you were working on ? spinelli : what case ? sam : the baby case . i went in jason 's , and you were on the phone , and i asked you about it , and you got all squirrely with me . spinelli : are you calling me a rodent ? sam : you were on the phone with jason that day , were n't you ? what baby were you talking about ? duke : no change ? dr. obrecht : i 'm sorry . duke : i know you miss your mother , robin . i know how much she misses you . be such a comfort if i could bring you both together , but -- i ca n't do that . i ca n't do that yet . it 's time for -- a different reunion . anna : so why is todd under heather 's thumb ? you said you might know -- but that , however it fell out , somebody 's gon na get badly hurt . mcbain : yeah . that 's an understatement . anna : well , i -- all i know now is that todd met heather in the woods . and now she 's run off with tea 's baby . am i right ? mcbain : the baby is n't tea 's son . he 's sam morgan 's . steve : you 've got to tell sam . jason : i ca n't tell sam yet . steve : it 's one thing withholding the information while you 're still investigating , but you know the truth now . jason : the truth is that sam 's child was kidnapped by a woman who hates her . and i do n't want to put sam through that . it 's better to wait . i 'll tell sam about her son when he 's safe . spinelli : i 'm sorry . i really ca n't discuss this . it 's confidential , but if you would like to confide in me about other things , like your misunderstanding with elizabeth , then i 'd be happy -- sam : it was n't really a misunderstanding . she lied . she wanted me to think there was more going on between her and jason . spinelli : that makes sense . but why would she confess that to you ? sam : yeah , i do n't know , spinelli . i thought it was weird , too . she kept saying that she could n't lie to another mother , which did n't make any sense because -- i 'm not a mother . spinelli : you -- sam , you most certainly are . okay , los -- losing a child does n't change the fact that -- that you carried him , you bore him , you loved him . you will always be his mother . sam : thank you for that . spinelli : well , it 's true . sam : okay . well , it 's not answering my question . spinelli : i 'm afraid only jason can do that . sam : spinelli , when i mentioned that to jason , all he could say is that -- `` is that all elizabeth said ? `` spinelli : perhaps he was afraid that harsh words were spoken ? sam : or perhaps jason and elizabeth are keeping something from me . it 's a secret , and you know what it is . spinelli : yeah , it 's -- it 's an emotional time , you know , with the strain of the pathogen and what 's going on with you . you know , i think everyone 's just a little -- a little fuzzy and -- sam : listen to me ! enough , spinelli ! i know you 're keeping something from me , and you need to tell me before i hurt you ! ellie : i would never hurt damian . he 's wonderful . maxie : yeah , he is . ellie : but i think it 's really nice that you still care . most former girlfriends would n't . maxie : i would n't consider myself a former girlfriend . it 's a little more complex than that . you see -- ellie : i know . damian explained . maxie : he did ? yeah , he was madly in love with you , and you married someone else . you wanted to stay friends , but he could n't help but pine for you . he finally made the decision to distance himself , and he 's just recently begun dating . maxie : spinelli told you all of that ? ellie : he 's so honest . it 's one of the things i like best about damian . actually , there 's a lot i like about him . maxie : well , just be careful . you do n't want to become the rebound girl . ellie : oh , no . i 'm in no hurry . if anything , i hope we take our time . and perhaps a real relationship will develop . he 's one of the only people who can really follow my train of thought . maxie : well , what about you ? do you understand all the things that come out of spinelli 's mouth ? you know , when he starts talking about ruling the internet and particle physics and string theory , hmm ? do you understand that ? ellie : yeah , most of it . his computer skills are epic , though . way beyond mine . maxie : yeah , way beyond anyone 's . did spinelli tell you about that time he lost his mojo and i helped him find it ? ellie : yeah . he is so grateful for you . i just do n't think he wants to be intrusive , you know ? or cause any friction between you and the wrench murderer . maxie : i told you , he 's not the wrench murderer . it 's more like the wrench manslaughterer . ellie : even so , i 'm sure you miss him so much . maxie : well , at some -- yes . you 're right . i do miss my husband a lot . ellie : well , this works great , then . maxie : you 've lost me . ellie : well , if damian and i are in a relationship , then you do n't have to worry about him pining after you . and without the added pressure of his unrequited feelings for you , you guys can go back to being friends again , which is exactly what you wanted , right ? anna : sam 's baby is alive and being passed off as tea 's ? how ? do you know this for a fact ? mcbain : yeah . i did the swab on little victor . anna : tea gave you permission to do that ? mcbain : no , i did n't want to say anything till i had proof . anna : okay . dna test was obtained illegally , then . mcbain : it was n't meant to hold up in court . but it 's definitive . sam morgan is that little boy 's mother . anna : do you know how the switch occurred ? mcbain : think so . manning went searching in the woods with a baby , the one we talked about earlier . at the same time , sam found her way to the woods . she went to the shack . she 's just given birth , right ? and she 's -- she 's suffering from shock and blood loss , all right ? so she puts her baby down , and she passes out . anna : and heather 's there . because she 's dealing with anthony 's body . mcbain : yes . at that point , webber and manning conspire to switch the babies . anna : wow . well , my money 's on heather . i bet it was her idea . mcbain : manning 's no better . you know what ? he had already killed tea 's husband . and there 's no way he wanted to tell her the truth that the baby did n't make it . anna : what kind of monster takes a child from his own mother ? duke : anna devane is a stubborn woman . mm . we clashed from the first time we met . dr. obrecht : why is that ? duke : well , let 's just say we were from opposite sides . but that did n't stop us . nothing could , for a time . dr. obrecht : what happened ? duke : circumstances -- tore us apart . but now those circumstances do n't exist , so -- i can go back to her . carly : i have done better . i had jax . i mean , how is that for a joke ? i stalled that divorce for close to a year , came up with tons of excuses , and then i sign away my marriage with jax for johnny zacchara . god , i feel like such an idiot . todd : why ? you just made a gesture in good faith . carly : and jason knew . jason knew that being with johnny was a bad idea . todd : jason , jason , jason , jason , jason -- carly : jason always knows when i 'm not trusting my own instincts . he knows when i 'm lying to myself , and he told me that being with johnny was wrong and that i should dump him . you know what else is really great about jason ? todd : no , tell me . carly : he does n't tell me , `` i told you so . `` todd : that 's -- okay . why are you mad at me ? i 'm not the guy you should be mad at here . carly : you 're right . i 'm mad at myself . todd : which is ridiculous . johnny cheated on you . johnny lied to your face . you want to be mad at somebody , be mad at johnny . do n't be mad at me . and do n't be mad at yourself . carly : you 're right . you 're right , because you 've been so wonderful and kind to me , and i 've taken advantage of you long enough . i need to go home and get dressed and go to work so i can spend my day not trying to , like , burst into tears the whole time or throw something at somebody , and -- todd : why do n't you call in sick ? call in sick . carly : call in sick ? just not go ? todd : you 're the boss . you can do that . come on . i 'll put some popcorn in the microwave . we 'll throw a movie on . carly : with you ? todd : yeah , with me . carly : you have a paper to run . todd : okay , do n't tell anybody , but they can actually survive the whole day there without me . popcorn and a b - movie with a beautiful blond . i 'm not stupid . i 'm not gon na give that up . carly : [ chuckles ] i do n't feel very beautiful right now . todd : trust me -- you 're a knockout . so what do you want ? you want western ? you want zombies ? what do you -- oh , here -- immediately . come on . `` my boyfriend was an alien . `` carly : [ laughs ] todd : it 's perfect . carly : does it really say that ? todd : not only says that , that 's what we 're gon na watch . here . i 'll start the popcorn . carly : okay . todd -- todd : yes ? carly : thank you . todd : you 're welcome . it 's all gon na be okay . anna : okay , i 'm heather , and i disappear . why do i go to the trouble of kidnapping a child ? unless there 's something -- that she wants from that particular child . truthfully , i 'm -- kind of too afraid to find out what . steve : this is my mother we 're talking about , jason . even if you found her , there 's no guarantee this baby 's gon na be okay . jason : i understand that . steve : the least she could do is sell him to the highest bidder . she 's done it before . jason : heather 's resources are limited . there 's only so far that she can run . and now that she 's kidnapped a child , that 's a federal crime , and the feds are gon na be after her , too . steve : which will only make her more dangerous . jason : which is exactly why sam ca n't know about any of this . sam : talk ! spinelli : would you actually incur bodily harm to your friend and business partner ? sam : people have been lying to me for weeks ! if you do n't tell me what 's going on , i just may snap ! spinelli : okay , i have to tell you , though -- my pugilistic skills have improved . jason 's been training me . or , it was actually just once , and i was felled by a wayward punch , and -- sam : i can take you , spinelli ! you know it , and i know it ! so you better tell me what 's going on before you lose -- spinelli : okay , you 've broken me ! i - i surrender . i surrender . sam : so you admit it ? you know what 's going on ? spinelli : i - i know -- i know that there is the possibility of something . it was a theory that was disproved . it just turned out to be a mistake . mcbain : hey , anna , we got to do everything we can to find this kid , all right ? after that -- heather can go to hell , for all i care . anna : tea does n't know the child is n't hers ? mcbain : after we found out that the baby was missing and that the psychopath that she had hired did it -- i did n't think it was the right time to tell her . anna : oh , god , that poor woman . she 's probably terrified that some harm 's gon na come to that little boy or that she 's never gon na see him again . and then if we 're lucky enough to find him , give him back to her , and then tell her that -- he 's not hers ? that is so cruel . she 'll lose him all over again . duke : your mother was shattered by your death . it was all so real for her , but i promise -- i 'm gon na mend her broken heart . and very soon , your mother and everyone will know that you 're alive . but not just yet . it 's got to be our secret . dr. obrecht : the car is waiting . duke : please take care of : we 'll do our best . i 'm sorry -- but i have to ask -- what about luke spencer ? he seemed quite devoted to ms . devane . duke : i 'm not concerned by him . i know anna 's heart . i 'm the man she loves . anna : is bo buchanan still commissioner at llanview ? mcbain : he is . anna : okay , i need you to tell him that he has our full cooperation . why do n't i just call him ? mcbain : i suggest you also send a squad car out to what 's left of that shack in the woods . anna : maybe i 'll bring heather 's son in . i do n't think steve is covering for her in any way , but -- i just think that -- um -- maybe steve , uh -- you know , i just think maybe he knows more than he realizes , maybe . mcbain : when was the last time you slept ? anna : i do n't know . i have officially moved past my professional detachment to heather . she is now making another mother 's life misery , and i am gon na make damn sure she pays for it . after she lied to me about robin -- well , that 's weird . mcbain : hey . hey . anna : oh , god . mcbain : you okay ? anna : yeah . just weird . mcbain : when 's the last time you had something to eat ? anna : [ breathes deeply ] i do n't know . yesterday , i think ? mcbain : yesterday ? [ scoffs ] anna : yeah . mcbain : hey , go home . anna : no , i 'm okay , i 'm okay . mcbain : you 're not okay . you go home , all right ? get a couple hours sleep , all right ? you have a sandwich , you get a shower . you got to stay sharp , you know ? you may be gunning for heather webber , but she 's gunning for you , too . steve : hey , look -- i do n't know where you and sam are -- i do n't know if you 're separated or what -- but you , of all people , know her better than anyone else . and do you really think she 'd want you to protect her right now ? i mean , what if something awful happens ? do n't you think she deserves to know that her son survived and that he had a few good months with a woman who made sure he was loved ? sam needs to know the truth . sam : i 'm sorry , spinelli . did i hurt you ? spinelli : i may have tweaked -- no , i - i 'm fine . it is remarkable -- you are small in stature but unquestionably fierce . sam : i 'm just -- i 'm really frustrated . i did n't mean to take it out on you , though . spinelli : i counsel calm and patience . sam : i just do n't understand how whatever this is could be a mistake . jason obviously came here to tell me something . spinelli : you -- you must ask him these questions , okay ? let him tell you , if there is , in fact , anything to tell . sam : but do n't you think that i would be able to help ? i mean , i have the right to know what 's going on ? this is about me , right ? spinelli : yeah , you -- you make a valid point . i mean -- and you -- you are concerned . no doubt about it . um -- but you 'll have to ask jason about it ! sam : spinelli ! spinelli ! [ sighs ] maxie : you dating spinelli does n't actually solve anything . ellie : well , damian told me you two ca n't be friends until you 're both in new relationships . you 're already married , and damian and i are on the cusp of something wonderful . maxie : wonderful ? was that your word or spinelli 's ? ellie : i can just feel it . the pheromones are everywhere . you know , i was reading a study comparing humans and moths -- maxie : okay , i do n't care about moths or pheromones . and being friends with damian is the last thing that i want . [ scratching ] ellie : i 'm sorry you do n't want to be friends with damian . i know he 'll be really disappointed . maxie : he will ? ellie : of course . he was counting on resuming your friendship once he settled in to a relationship of his own . you 're really important to him . maxie : he 's important to me . really -- spinelli : ellie . ellie : i was n't sure you 'd be able to make it . spinelli : are you kidding ? i 've been looking forward -- maxie : hi , spinelli . spinelli : maxie , uh -- if i might ask -- what 's going on ? maxie : oh ! um -- just girl talk . you know . spinelli : oh . great . maxie : uh , what are you doing here , damian ? spinelli : uh -- taking ellie to lunch . ellie : yeah ! we 're going to picnic on that cliff overlooking the lake . spinelli : yeah . ellie : and if we 're lucky , maybe we 'll even see some peregrine falcons . spinelli : oh , a most thrilling prospect . [ both laugh ] maxie : are you doing okay ? you seem a little stressed . spinelli : it actually has been a bit of a stressful morning , but -- nothing a picnic ca n't cure , so -- shall we ? ellie : yeah . maxie , it was really nice getting to know you better . maybe we could do `` girl talk `` again ? maxie : yeah , sure . [ elevator bell dings ] anna : who are you ? i asked you a question -- who are you ? that 's not possible . duke ? carly : i ca n't believe we watched that whole movie . todd : you kidding ? you loved it . i saw your face when the girl threw her boyfriend into the volcano . carly : oh , that was my favorite part . todd : you want to know my favorite part ? the girl riding off into the sunset with her new reporter boyfriend . carly : really ? todd : yeah . no ? well , maybe not today . but tomorrow . carly : i should go . todd : you do n't want to see `` space aliens from outer space 6 `` or whatever 's next ? carly : i should get home to josslyn . i mean , i do want to spend some mommy time with her , and i need to shower and -- todd : you know , the thing is , whoever designed this hotel did a great job . there 's a shower in every suite . there 's one -- i 'll scrub your back . scrub your front . carly : [ laughs ] you do n't have to flirt with me , you know . i 'm feeling better . todd : you will feel better . and -- after a while , you -- you wo n't think about that jerk at all . carly : unfortunately , i still love that jerk . steve : hey , liv , it 's me again . i 'm just leaving you another message . i worry about you with my mother out there somewhere . [ knock on door ] steve : call me when you can . let me know you 're okay , okay ? i love you . forecast -- plenty of -- todd : do n't you worry , carly . your heart 's not broken . you 're just momentarily humiliated . that 's all . [ knock on door ] todd : well , look who could n't stay away . mcbain : i know what you did . sam : hey , jason . i - it 's me . i 'm at my mom 's -- [ knock on door ] sam : i was just thinking that we probably need to finish that conversation that we started . jason : yeah , we do . [ breathes deeply ] sam : you said that whatever you had to tell me was important , and then we got interrupted . so -- jason : that 's -- that 's why i 'm here . you need to sit down . sam : okay . it 's that bad . jason : [ breathes deeply ] it 's about your son . your son is alive .

franco : come on , franco , you can do this . how hard can it be ? [ breathing heavily ] [ scoffs ] [ grunts ] no ! [ grunting ] why ? ! why is this so hard ? ! who are you ? heather , what are you trying to say ? ! how can i -- how can i recreate this monstrosity of a painting for sebastian when i do n't even -- i ca n't even decipher what it is you 're all about ? ! [ cell phone rings ] franco : huh ? oh . speak of the devil . hey , sebastian ! how 's it going ? uh , i 'm okay ! yeah , not bad , you know ? kind of busy . yeah , super busy on that stripy series you were so inspired by , 'cause i promised i 'd get that to you . oh , yeah . hysterical ! who knew i was so funny , when i tried to pass off my artwork as groundbreaking when it was really just crap ? ha . i 'm so witty -- witty but busy , sebastian . so , uh , if you want me to get this artwork to you , maybe you should , uh , not call me for a while . all right , here . [ sighs ] that 'll buy me some time . [ knock on door ] franco : maybe enough time for heather to crank out another couple of indecipherable stripy paintings that i can pass off as my own . no visitors ! heather : not even from your number - one fan ? derek : [ sighs ] what now ? can i help you ? carly : you sure can . you can tell me where the hell i find ava jerome . derek : ms. jacks , uh , what 's this about ? carly : i told you . i need to see ava jerome . derek : may i ask why ? carly : yeah , so i can wring her scrawny neck . morgan : when i came back to get the shampoo , that guy -- before he saw me , i heard him say something about taking care of sonny . what was that all about ? ava : well , you 're certainly developing into an avid eavesdropper . morgan : i did n't mean to hear it . ava : if you are gon na stay here , we need to establish some boundaries . listening in on my conversations , either intentionally or by not announcing your presence ... is a deal - breaker . morgan : all right . that 's -- you know what ? that 's totally fair . but i ca n't un - hear what i already heard , so ... [ sniffs ] ... you want to tell me what 's going on ? were you talking about my dad or not ? ava : as a matter of fact ... i was . olivia : damn you , derek wells . [ sighs ] well , well , well . if it is n't the jackal himself , and his trusty sidekick , the back - stabber . [ doorbell buzzes ] dante : that 's got to be her . lulu : yeah . let 's get this show on the road . dante : yeah . lulu : [ sighs ] dante : ready ? lulu : yeah . alexis : hi . dante : hey . come on in . alexis : thank you . how are my favorite new parents ? dante : well , uh , we 're glad you could make it . lulu : yeah . uh , you must be so busy with danny , not to mention your caseload . alexis : well , we can take one thing off the list . sam took danny home . he 's on the road to recovery . dante : wow , that 's -- that 's great news . lulu : you must be so relieved . i ca n't even imagine going through something like that with connie . alexis : well , i ca n't imagine that you will ever have to . now , enough chitchat ! let me see -- oh , my gosh . she 's beautiful . she 's sleeping ? dante : yeah . she 's actually , uh , why we called you . alexis : i take it , it was n't a - a social visit . so , uh , what can i do for you ? dante : help us keep our daughter . alexis : you 're worried about losing custody of connie ? why is that ? is there something wrong with the surrogacy contract ? because if there is , i can -- dante : no , no . it 's not the surrogacy contract . lulu : well , it -- it is . but , uh , there 's nothing wrong with the contract . we just ca n't use it . alexis : okay , that sounds like a contradiction in terms . lulu : yeah , it 's -- it 's confusing , but , um , as we understand it , the agreement only pertains to a baby carried by maxie that is our biological child . alexis : and that 's not the case ? dante : no . maxie was n't carrying our child . she was carrying her own . olivia : the jackal and the back - stabber . you know what you guys need ? spinelli : [ sighs ] olivia : you guys need your own tv show ! jackal and the back - stabber , you know , like -- like the scarecrow and mrs. king or `` cagney & lacey , `` only instead -- instead of solving crimes , you commit them on your best friends . maxie : we 're leaving . i told you this was a bad idea . olivia : [ laughs ] if that does n't take the cake . a bad idea ... coming from the queen of bad ideas ? although , i - i kind of got to wonder , this is n't really up to your normal , high standards of bad ideas , is it ? coming from bad ideas , the one you came up with nine months ago when you decided not to tell dante and lulu that you miscarried their child , not to tell them that the baby you were carrying was actually yours -- now , that one really takes the cake ! that is a gold medal - winning bad idea ! you broke their hearts . maxie : i know . olivia : when ... did you know that what you were doing was just deceitful ... and selfish and cruel ? spinelli : okay . look . there 's no question that maxie 's actions were misguided , but they were not out of malice -- quite the opposite . she only had the best intentions . olivia : okay , then , maybe maxie can explain it to me , because i know a thing or two about babies and lying , and i still just -- i ca n't figure this one out . [ voice breaking ] how could you let your best friends fall in love with a baby that was n't theirs ? franco : [ muttering ] get in here . are you crazy ? ! heather : i would n't use that term so cavalierly , especially around your greatest fan . franco : what are you doing here ? heather : i heard you wanted an audience ! i thought your hotel room would provide the perfect ambiance . that way , we wo n't have to worry about any of my keepers looking over our shoulder . so , what did you need to speak to me about ? franco : well , i 'm kind of having a hard time . i ... need your help . heather : oh , franco . do n't you realize i 'd do anything for you ? is it that carly jacks ? it is , is n't it ? that woman turns up everywhere she 's not wanted . i 'll tell you what . i 'd be happy to help you with that problem ! if you want carly to disappear , you just say the word , and poof ! she 's gone . derek : make yourself at home . i suppose i could always shower later . so , uh , tell me . what did ava do ? carly : that 's not important . tell me where i can find her . derek : [ laughs ] and abet in whatever act of violence you have in store ? carly : i 'm not gon na hurt her . i just need to have a little discussion with her . derek : and you think i know her location because ... ? carly : well , because she 's your art dealer . derek : [ chuckles ] uh -- [ clears throat ] you do realize that means that ava works for me and not the other way around . now , if i wanted to find her , um , i know where i would start . her room . carly : that 's a great idea , but ava is no longer a guest in this establishment . derek : she checked out ? [ laughing ] oh ! do n't tell me . do n't tell me . you barged into her room , as well . carly : i own the hotel . i reserve the right to barge into anyone 's room . no , she did n't check out . she escaped . derek : she could n't pay her bills ? carly : she slept with my son . morgan : so , you were talking about my father . mind telling me why ? ava : and here , i thought you did n't care about your father . morgan : i do n't . ava : oh , morgan . you do n't have to keep up this front with me . i know that it 's nearly impossible to cut all ties with a loved one . i 'm sure that underneath that anger , you still care very deeply for your father . maybe you 're even a little protective of him ? morgan : no , you 're wrong . ava : well , then , maybe you would 've behaved differently in my place . morgan : what place ? ava : derek , that man who was just here -- morgan : mm - hmm . ava : he 's a client of mine . he owns the port charles press . he hoped to use our relationship for his own gain . he thought that because of our business association , i would have no qualms offering anonymous quotes for his paper 's follow - up story about sonny 's recent ... setbacks ? i told him to look elsewhere . morgan : oh , you 're right . if he would 've asked me , i would 've told him anything he wanted to know . and screw that `` anonymous `` stuff . i would 've put my name right on it , because i do n't care who knows what i think about my father . you know , he 's -- [ knock on door ] sonny : ava . open the door . i - i want to talk to you about something . ava : you should probably stay out of sight while i deal with this . morgan : wait . sonny : you do n't want me to break the door down , now , right ? you got my son in there ? morgan : so what if she does ? derek : i 'm not sure what 's more notable in this situation -- the fact that ava has a , uh , proclivity for much , uh [ chuckles ] much younger men , or the fact that you 're so ready to intervene . carly : i 'm morgan 's mother . derek : well , there 's a concept known as -- carly : ava is morgan 's mother - in - law . derek : point taken . carly : yeah . i 'm guessing you do n't have kids . if you did , you might understand that , you know , you do n't stop worrying about a kid when he turns 18 ! derek : okay . so , have you tried talking to your son about this ? carly : i 've tried talking to morgan , but he does n't want to hear one word against ava ! he does n't understand that she 's trying to exploit him . what kind of woman does that ? i mean , really ! you know who she 's like ? she 's like one of those teachers who lures the underage kid into bed with her ! derek : okay , but , as you noted yourself , morgan is n't underage . in fact , he 's a grown man , which makes him more than capable of choosing his own sex partners . now , you may not , you know , agree with ava as a choice , but , uh , so what ? carly : ava is taking advantage of morgan 's immaturity . his marriage fell apart ! i mean , he 's having one big temper tantrum . and yes , he may be legally of age , but , clearly , by his actions , he 's not acting like it ! he 's acting like a 12-year - old . and ava is his mother - in - law . she 's in a position of trust , and she 's abusing that trust ! derek : why are you so preoccupied with whomever morgan is sleeping with ? is it because you 're sleeping alone ? franco : okay , t - take it easy . i do n't think carly is to blame for my current trouble . heather : then what 's got your knickers in a knot ? franco : you want the truth ? heather : yeah . franco : you ! heather : me ? franco : yeah , you ! you and this ! heather : it 's your birthday present . i painted it specifically for you . [ voice breaking ] i knew you did n't like it . franco : who could like this ? 'cause i ... love this ! i love it . i ca n't even be in the same room with it . i just fall right into the stripes , because they are so mesmerizing . a - and going out does n't help , because i just wander the streets , pondering the impact of your miraculous art ! heather : oh . well , why did n't you say so ? i 'll destroy it . franco : what ? heather : [ sighs ] uh , if it 's preventing you from sharing your work with the rest of the world , i mean , it 's an abomination ! i mean , that would be a sin ! it must not be allowed to exist ! franco : no , no , no , no , no ! alexis : wait a second . so , c - connie is maxie and spinelli 's daughter ? dante : she is . although , if a third party had n't spoken out at the christening , we -- we never would 've known . lulu : maxie was willing to lie for the rest of her life . she wanted us to keep connie . and w - we want that , too . dante : we just think it 's better to get something in writing so that our daughter does n't have to deal with any confusion . lulu : that 's why we called you here . we want to make our relationship with connie official , really become her parents in every sense of the word . we want to legally adopt her . spinelli : this is a most painful and difficult situation . you have every right to your anger . olivia : i 'm really glad to know that i have your permission to be angry . although , i kind of got to wonder why you are n't a hell of a lot angrier yourself ! see , as i understand it , maxie here has been lying to you for months , and yet , here you are , standing right by her side . does it even matter to you that she was trying to give away your baby and pass it off as dante and lulu 's ? spinelli : however maxie and i decide to resolve our issues is ... our business . olivia : you two take your business somewhere else . maxie : this is not spinelli 's fault . it 's mine . olivia : [ voice breaking ] let me explain something to you , maxi because you are obviously very hazy on this concept . i am dante 's mother . i love him more than life itself . and he is devastated ! and so is lulu ! so you showing up here with your little wistful face , taking the blame -- it does n't mean a damn thing to me ! spinelli : however we arrived in this painful situation , we have to find a way to deal with it . olivia : we do ? spinelli : uh , i - i 'm sure dante and lulu are upset and -- and concerned about how to -- how to proceed , now that the truth is out . olivia : proceed with what ? spinelli : raising connie . olivia : you 're thinking that maybe ... dante and lulu are n't interested in raising connie anymore , now that they know she 's not theirs , because if they are n't ... you are . maxie : yes . spinelli : yes . be surprised that you want connie back . i knew there was no way that you were gon na be able to give up your own daughter , no matter how much you swore you would . but i really have to ask you , maxie , as one baby liar to another . how did you really think you were gon na take this secret to your grave ? maxie : i was naive . i thought i could do it . i was prepared to do it , until that lab tech revealed the truth . spinelli : we hope you understand , even if you ca n't forgive . we -- max - maxie and i genuinely wanted dante and lulu to keep connie . olivia : but you do n't feel that way anymore . spinelli : i decided to keep quiet when connie 's parentage was still a secret , when i - i knew that my daughter had a good home and -- and loving parents -- my friends , who 'd i do anything to spare from pain . but ... now the proverbial genie is out of the bottle ! there 's no going back ! and believe me , maxie and i have agonized over this , but we agree . we ca n't live without our daughter . olivia : [ voice breaking ] i knew this was gon na happen . i told dante that he needed to prepare himself and he needed to prepare lulu . maxie : how did he take that ? olivia : [ sighs ] you can not imagine the loss that they 're feeling right now , and i pray to god that you never do . i think that dante understood . spinelli : so it wo n't come as a shock that we want connie back ? olivia : hey , if you 're looking for some kind of advance intel on this whole situation , you came to the wrong place . spinelli : we would never ask you to betray your confidences , but you are a member of the immediate family , so ... a - any advice would be welcome . olivia : i have no idea what you 're gon na walk into when you go have this conversation . all i can tell you is ... it 's not gon na come as a surprise to dante and lulu . alexis : so , you want to adopt connie . lulu : yeah , uh , we thought that w - was the simplest solution , unless you can think of another way to solidify our relationship . alexis : mm , actually , it 's the only option . i 'm not sure how simple that 's going to be , however . have either of you had a conversation with maxie or spinelli ? dante : not about the adoption , no . lulu : no , but , i mean , maxie was very clear . when the truth came out , she told us in no uncertain terms that she 's giving connie to us , and spinelli even backed her up . dante : and they said they were at peace giving her up . lulu : they knew that she would be raised in a loving home . dante : and , look . i - if the truth had n't come out at the christening , none of this would be necessary . uh , i - it 's only because this brad cooper guy announced it -- alexis : wait . who ? lulu : oh , he 's a lab tech at the hospital . dante : he found out that connie was really maxie and spinelli 's , and then he announced it at the christening . lulu : so , can it be done ? alexis : [ clears throat ] yes , it can . lulu : [ sighs ] thank god . dante : we just -- we were n't sure . alexis : um , i - it absolutely can , but , again , i 'm not sure how simple this is going to be . i mean , you ca n't just unilaterally adopt a baby that is n't yours , not in a situation like this . lulu : well , what do you mean ? alexis : the adoption ca n't go forward unless spinelli and maxie give their express consent . franco : [ straining ] are you cra -- [ grunting ] ... cra - craving ? are you craving another blt ? because if you keep behaving like this , you are never gon na have another one . heather : uh , but i thought i was helping , by getting rid of an obstacle to your completion of your own work ! franco : really ? you thought it would be helpful to -- to destroy such a masterpiece ? tell me something . would you graffiti `` the scream `` ? would you paint a mustache on the `` mona lisa `` ? do n't answer that . you want to help me ? you want to be helpful ? [ sighs ] i need -- i need more . heather : more ? franco : yeah . heather : more what ? franco : more -- more -- more of this inspiration , this -- this -- this ... c - colorful stripy humanity . heather : my painting . franco : yeah . your painting . this ... painting . heather : you get it . you really get it ! franco : oh , yeah . no , i - i - i really get it . what i would really like to get is maybe a dozen more of them . heather : you want a series . franco : a series ! yeah . what do you say ? would you do that for little , old me ? heather : of course , i will -- uh ... on one condition . franco : you got it . you 'll have a blt every meal ! let 's go get you one right now . heather : no , no , no . i already had one of those on the way over . this is another sort of condition . franco : okay . name it . heather : promise me you 'll stay away from carly jacks . carly : excuse me , where do you get off commenting on my sex life ? derek : in my room , the one that you just barged into . carly : oh , do n't make this about me . this is about you and your idiotic statement . i mean , what makes you think that i 'm not -- derek : actually , you 're the one who made me think that , when you , uh , broke up with your boyfriend . carly : boyfriend . derek : mm - hmm . the nurse -- the one that you were slapping when i ran into you down at the pier . carly : yeah , him . derek : yeah . things , uh , clearly ended badly between you two , although if we 're being completely honest about things , i , uh ... [ chuckles ] i have to wonder just how satisfied you could 've possibly been in that relationship . carly : satisfied . derek : mm - hmm . i hate to break it to you , but , uh , the young man is obviously gay . carly : yeah , uh ... uh , that was a consideration . derek : and perhaps that discontent is the reason for your fixation on your son 's sex life . carly : [ laughing ] oh , you have no idea what you 're talking about . derek : okay , so i have this wrong ? you 're , uh -- you 're seeing somebody new now ? tell me . who 's the lucky guy ? carly : there is no lucky guy . and with that ... you free for dinner ? sonny : so , it 's true ? morgan : what -- mom told you , so you just had to come check it out for yourself ? sonny : shacking up with her ? morgan : if that 's what you want to call it -- sonny : what i 'm gon na call it is , it 's over ! get your things . we 're gon na get out of here . morgan : i 'm not going anywhere with you . sonny : she can send your things to you . you 're coming with me . morgan : i 'm not going with you ! are you kidding ? ! after everything you 've done to me , you think i 'm gon na go with you ? ! i 'm not going with you anywhere ! i 'm not going with you now . i 'm not going with you ever again ! ava : i think i 'll let you two work this out . sonny : perfect time to make an exit -- once you 've done your damage to my family . morgan : hey , ava has n't done anything , okay ? if anyone 's done anything to hurt the family , it 's been you . sonny : i 'm not blameless . morgan : you 're completely to blame . sonny : i 'm willing to talk ! morgan : we 've already talked ! we 've talked ! remember when i poured my heart out to my father ? and then what 'd he promise me in return ? sonny : i made a mistake , and i -- morgan : you betrayed me , dad . okay ? all my life , you talk about loyalty and -- and respect , and how you ca n't be a man without both . and then the one time i need it from you , you give me neither of those ? sonny : i was wrong ! i - i should 've never kept that secret for you ! i should 've never let you lie to kiki , to your brother , to yourself . morgan : you 're the one who lied ! you lied ! sonny : what do you mean ? morgan : you said you were on my side , and then you gave me up for michael ! sonny : i should never have said anything at the reception . morgan : you should n't have said anything at all ! at all ! but it 's fine . you know what ? you -- you made your choice . and you broke your word . you chose michael over me . who are you to come up in here and -- sonny : who am i ? who am i ? ! i 'm your father ! morgan : no , you 're not ! ! [ voice breaking ] you 're just some guy that ca n't keep his word . my father -- he 's dead to me . sonny : come back here . i did n't -- m -- ava : sonny . i am so sorry . sonny : really . derek : did you just , uh -- carly : ask you to dinner ? derek : mm . carly : guillaume has roast rabbit on the menu . you think you 've died and gone to heaven . derek : why the unexpected invitation ? carly : why not ? you just told me that i do n't have my priorities straight , that i 'm focusing on my son . maybe i should spend my time on a handsome , charming stranger . derek : me . carly : is that a yes ? derek : well , i 'm pretty sure i do n't have any , um , obligations this evening . carly : great . then it 's settled . derek : actually , um ... i 'm afraid it 's not . carly : oh . you do n't like rabbit ? there 's other things on the menu you might like . derek : well , it 's actually not the menu that i 'm questioning . it 's , uh -- it 's your motives . one minute , you 're being hostile , and the next , you 're asking me out . uh , forgive me , but , uh , i 'm not buying it . lulu : thank you so much for doing this . i hope it was n't an inconvenience . alexis : no , not at all . i 'm actually really glad that i have a template on my hard drive for some of my cases . makes it easy to edit , and then you print it out , and no fuss , no muss . lulu : i 'll give my right arm for no muss , no fuss . alexis : this is not exactly the way you wanted to start out your new lives as parents . lulu : no . but ... i ca n't really talk . look at everything that sam 's been through . alexis : she 's had a rough first year . lulu : well , she 's really lucky to have you . alexis : thank you . what about you , lulu ? uh , is your family around to help ? lulu : nicholas is busy dealing with his own issues . uh , lucky and ethan are a world aw , and [ groans ] my parents -- do n't get me started . [ both chuckle ] alexis : you have had your fair share of family drama . that 's for sure . let me ask you something . uh , what about bobbie and lucas ? lulu : uh ... bobbie and i exchange e - mails every once in a while , and i do n't really keep in touch with my cousin . alexis : so i guess it 's safe to say he wo n't be paying you a visit anytime in the near future ? lulu : uh , not in the foreseeable future . i get the feeling you have your own reasons for asking that do not include a spencer family reunion . alexis : yeah . actually , i was hoping that lucas might be able to lead me to sam 's father . carly : you 're not , um , buying it . what 's to buy ? i 'm offering to buy you dinner . derek : mm , so i 'm just to assume that there 's no ulterior motive . spinelli : everything i have on ava jerome , but be warned -- it 's not much . i have yet to unearth any skeletons nor suss out a history between her and silas clay . carly : yeah , i do n't care about silas clay . there 's someone else i need you to look into -- derek wells . carly : maybe what you said resonated with me . derek : oh , uh , i - i 'm sorry . did you just say that i was right ? carly : i 'm saying that i 'm a little lonely . and it would be a nice change of pace to have dinner with someone i 'm not related to or feuding with . it 's been a while since i made new friends . is that ulterior motive enough for you ? derek : give me 20 minutes . i 'll , um , see you upstairs ? alexis : from what i understand , lucas ' biological father died before he knew he had a son . dante : so , you think julian jerome is sam 's father ? alexis : i know he 's been dead for a long time . but for sam 's sake , it would help put an end to the uncertainty . lulu : well , you do n't have to explain that to us . dante : yeah , you 're preaching to the choir here . alexis : if i can compare lucas ' dna with sam 's dna , it could help determine if they share the same father . lulu : which is why you were hoping lucas would visit . alexis : it was a long shot . phone call would be a lot easier , but it 's awkward to call someone you have n't seen since they were a teenager and say , `` can i have some of you genetic material ? `` lulu : [ chuckles ] i - i would be happy to try to connect you with lucas . but like i said , i mean , we do n't really talk . the person you need to speak with is lucas ' sister . franco : carly . heather : if i agree to provide you with more paintings , you 're gon na have to give that biddy a wide berth . franco : what do you have against carly ? what -- how well do you even know her ? heather : she tried to have you killed . how well do i need to get to know her ? franco : everybody makes mistakes . what , you never -- you never did something and then -- and then wanted somebody to give you a second chance ? heather : you 're not honestly comparing me to carly , are you ? franco : no , i - i - i - i 'm just -- i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm saying that , you know , maybe there 's another side to her , that 's all . heather : a scorpion only has one side . and if you 're not careful , she 'll lure you to your doom , for real . franco : lure me to my doom ? heather : you have n't seen her since the last time i saw you , have you ? have you ? ! franco : nope . have n't seen carly at all . nope . took your advice on that one . heather : thank god . franco : yeah . hey ! now that we 've got that settled , let 's get you back to miscavige so that you can crank out some more of those delicious paintings . heather : [ yelps quietly ] franco : hey , carly . hi . carly : what was that all about ? carly : what the hell was that ? franco : the hell was what ? [ door rattles ] carly : that . franco : that ? carly : yeah . that . the woman that you tossed into your room ! franco : not -- not a - a w - woman woman . carly : no ? franco : no ! carly : but it 's a woman . franco : well , female , but , we 're not the same species . we 're -- we 're related . she 's -- she 's my -- she 's my mother 's nephew . carly : i do n't care ! i do n't care . you know why ? i - i do n't have time for this , because i have to get ready for a date . franco : you have a date ? carly : oh , yeah . with derek wells . he is -- he 's amazing ! and he 's rich , and he 's arming , and he 's cultured and rugged good looks . yeah . franco : well , i always knew there had to be more than one of us . carly : and unlike you , he 's an upstanding member of society . and if all goes well tonight , i may get to find out how upstanding he really is . [ door rattles ] dante : here ? alexis : yeah , just sign there . and then you want to initial right there . dante : and that 's , uh -- that 's it ? we 're good ? alexis : yeah , that 's it . now , uh , all you want to do is have maxie and spinelli sign that . return it to me , and i 'll file it . lulu : okay . then connie is ours . alexis : signed , sealed , and delivered , barring no problems . lulu : i - i ca n't imagine what could be a problem . alexis : good . well , good luck to both of you . dante : thank you , alexis . alexis : take care . dante : see you . uh , who you calling ? lulu : maxie . why waste time , right ? spinelli : i believe it 's time to commence the conversation . maxie : i think that 's a good idea . olivia : hey . [ voice breaking ] this is about to become the most important day of your lives . it 's the start of a whole , new story . but it 's an ending for dante and lulu . okay ? so , please ... please tread lightly and try to respect their feelings , because when all is said and done ... you 're gon na walk away with your beautiful daughter ... and they 're gon na be left with an empty crib where their daughter used to sleep . [ cell phone rings ] maxie : it 's lulu . spinelli : well , answer it ! maxie : lulu , hi . lulu : maxie . hi . maxie : so , what 's up ? lulu : dante and i think that it 's time we all have a talk about connie . do you think you could find spinelli and head over here ? maxie : definitely . we will be right there . spinelli : w - w - we 'll be right where ? maxie : lulu and dante want to talk about connie . maybe we are all on the same page after all . sonny : it 's funny how things work out . ava : what things ? sonny : you end up meeting someone . you , you know , have some things in common . you start developing some kind of rapport , maybe share some things that you might not share with anyone else . then you find out that you did n't know them at all . ava : no , i - i believe that we do have a rapport . sonny : no , we did ! but not anymore . you know what we have now ? friction . ava : that 's not what i want . sonny : that 's not what you want ? what do you want , ava ? ava : i did n't plan this . it just happened ! sonny : it just happened ? you know , things just happen . like , somebody could fall down , right ? crack their head ? somebody could get in a car , get in an accident ? or somebody can walk outside for a walk , and then , uh , you do n't see them again . ava : are you th -- are you threatening me ? sonny : see , there 's some things you do n't know about me . when you were dropping your hints about how drugs mask the pain inside , and how people are -- you know , they -- they -- sometimes , they go to the dark places ? what you did n't know about me is i - i do n't need to go off my medication to go to those dark places . i live ... in that dark place . olivia and carly said that you were manipulating me . i defended you , 'cause i was n't in my right state of mind . that was my mistake ! but you have made plenty of mistakes , ava . right ? you have made me ... your enemy . and now you got a target on your back . olivia : hey . did you see today 's paper ? carly : oh , gosh . as if sonny is n't under enough pressure . olivia : did you already see him today ? carly : yeah , this morning . he was at the office . olivia : do n't you think it 's a little early for him to be back at work ? carly : he seems okay . he seems focused . i 've known him a long time . you know you ca n't get sonny to rest ! olivia : yeah , you would think that the papers would be able to give him a break just for a second . carly : he does n't pay attention to that stuff . olivia : maybe he should . ever since this , uh , derek wells guy took over the paper , it seems like the coverage has been especially bitter , you know , like the guy 's got an ax to grind or something . carly : mm . could you not confront him about this ? i - i 'm meeting derek wells for dinner tonight . olivia : can i ask why ? heather : [ gasps ] franco : that was close . if carly had come in here -- heather : i would 've dealt with it . franco : what -- are you like a croupier now ? heather : i would 've cooked her duck ! franco : why a duck ? heather : goose ! i mean goose ! franco : [ laughs ] you 're not gon na cook anybody 's goose . let 's get you back to miscavige , and you can make some more spectacular stripy paintings ! here . heather : oh ! one more thing before i go . franco : mm . heather : you should do yourself a favor and listen to carly . that skanky skink has finally found someone as unworthy as she is . focus on your work . put carly out of your mind . carly : derek wells is a guest of this hotel and a high - profile businessman . olivia : [ sighs ] who also happens to be gunning for your ex - husband . carly : i know what i 'm doing . olivia : famous last words . alexis : good . just the person i wanted to see . do you have a minute ? i want to ask you something about your brother . carly : lucas ? what do you want to know about lucas ? alexis : it 's not lucas i want as much as it is his father . franco : hey ! you going somewhere ? ava : if there 's nothing else ... morgan : why are you still here ? there 's nothing left to say -- sonny : i 'm leaving ! i 'm leaving , m -- one more thing , morgan . you know what ? i do n't -- whatever you may think ... i 'm gon na love you , and i 'm not gon na stop just because you think that we 're not father and son anymore . but you are right about one thing . you are an adult now . and i ca n't -- i ca n't protect you f - from all the harm that 's gon na happen out there ... especially this woman . watch your back . lulu : everything 's gon na be fine , right ? dante : hey . whatever happens , we 'll get through this . [ knock on door ] dante : [ clears throat ] lulu : come in ! spinelli : um , thank you for your hospitality ! uh , i have to say , i was m - more than a bit buoyed when m - maxie informed me that you requested our presence ! dante : uh ... thanks for coming by . lulu : we just want to clear the air . dante : we figured we should get this thing straightened out as soon as possible . lulu : for connie 's sake , to avoid any future confusion and get her permanently settled where she belongs . spinelli : yeah , we -- we could n't agree more . maxie : absolutely . so , how do you guys want to handle this ? lulu : um ... with these ? uh , everything has been set up . all you and spinelli have to do is sign . spinelli : uh , i 'm not sure i comprehend . maxie : what are these ? dante : they are adoption papers . lulu : so dante and i can keep connie .

[ beeping stops ] sam : [ sighs ] patrick : you okay ? sam ? did you have a bad dream ? carlos : sabrina , i am so sorry your little boy is dead . i never wanted you involved in my dirty business . sabrina : i do n't blame you . carlos : well , you should . ava killed your son because of me , and i will never be able to make that right by you . sabrina : that is n't why i 'm asking about ava . i just -- i need to know something . carlos : what is it ? sabrina : are you 100 % certain that ava caused that accident ? carlos : sabrina , look around . would i be here if i was n't 100 % certain ? sabrina : i suppose not . carlos : ava used your accident to force me to confess to a murder she committed . she admitted she did it . sabrina : but according to patrick , someone else admitted it , too . morgan : your friend really did a number on that guy . ava : he came out of nowhere . she did n't even see him . morgan : hmm . the article does n't make it sound so innocent . ava : it 's the front - page story on my brother 's paper . does he strike you as a bastion of integrity ? i should go up before somebody drops by . morgan : well , if you 're worried about michael , you can relax , 'cause my dad sent him away for a while , and kiki went with him , so ... ava : just when i need her . why ? morgan : someone tried to murder michael . ava : do they -- does your father know who it was that tried to hurt michael ? morgan : apparently , it 's one of his enemies . ava : well , if you 're implying that it was my brother , i ca n't deny that it 's a possibility , but i honestly do n't know . morgan : yeah ? you sure that , uh , julian did n't mention anything about going after my family ? ava : morgan , i swear to you . you know that i would never be involved in anything that would hurt you or my daughter . morgan : what about michael ? ava : michael is important to kiki and , therefore , important to me . morgan : well , he 's important to julian , too , for other reasons , but ... ava : you know , the only time that i 've spoken to julian in the past few days was to tell him that i 'm okay and that i 'm in hiding because your father wants to kill me after i give birth . and if we 're not careful , i think sonny 's gon na get his wish . i should go upstairs . morgan : hey , hey , hey . listen -- i 'm not gon na let anyone hurt you or the baby , okay ? ava : [ gasps ] ohh . morgan : whoa , whoa , whoa . ava : ohh ! morgan : what ? jordan : amazing . shawn : why , thank you . jordan : i ca n't even have an omelet in peace . [ chuckles ] i specifically came to the metro court because i did n't want to run in to you at kelly 's , and i thought i could just -- i do n't know -- enjoy breakfast in peace without having you haranguing me about ava 's whereabouts . i told you before , and i 'll tell you one more time , i do n't know where ava is -- end of story . shawn : are you done ? jordan : with this conversation ? yeah . god , i hope so . shawn : because i actually came over here to say thank you . jordan : oh . really ? why ? shawn : for giving me the heads up that michael was in trouble . you know , because of your tip - off , i was able to get to him before jerome 's hired gun was able to do michael in -- and his little friend that was there with him that night . silas : this will be for this week , plus a little severance pay . rosalie : dr. clay , why are you firing me ? i mean , i know you do n't like me , for whatever reason . silas : i wonder what that would be . rosalie : look , mrs. clay needs me . silas : mrs. clay does n't need you . she does n't even need that wheelchair . rosalie : that 's ridiculous . mrs. clay is n't ambulatory . she requires care only a professional nurse can provide her . she can barely move ! oh , my god . mrs. clay . look at you . it 's a miracle . nina : you can drop it . he knows . spencer : appalling ! there was a speck of powdered sugar on these . nikolas : no , there is n't . spencer : yes , there is , and it 's unacceptable ! powdered sugar has no place on pancakes or crêpes or any other variety ! nikolas : look who 's here . spencer : ooh ! britt , you came ! britt : how could i resist ? your driver hand - delivered an invitation to breakfast from the both of you , then waited until i finished getting dressed . nikolas : you look beautiful . spencer : you do ! britt : thanks . you two look ... extra special this morning . so , what 's the occasion ? what 's all the fuss ? britt : thank you . spencer : comfy ? nikolas : [ clears throat ] britt : [ chuckles ] um , actually , i 'm -- i 'm a little nervous . what 's going on ? spencer : i 'm glad you asked , britt . father , you 're up . nikolas : thank you , son . thank you . sorry . okay . um ... now that lulu is home safe and sound , spencer and i had some time to think about the past few very crazy months , and first he ran away -- scared me out of my mind -- and then lulu 's kidnapped , and she and her husband almost die . britt : it 's been a rough few months ... nikolas : yes . britt : ... for the both of you . nikolas : yes , it has been , but , as difficult as it 's been ... there 's been one light that 's shined through all of this , and ... honestly , that 's been you . britt : what ? me ? nikolas : yeah . spencer : do n't speak . nikolas : [ chuckles ] two of the most important people in my life went missing , and if it had n't been for you , i would n't have been able to put one foot in front of the other . and spencer -- he obviously misses you , right ? spencer : yep . the right words have yet to be invented . nikolas : and -- and now that there 's no crisis going on for you to get me through ... i realize i missed you , too . so , spencer and i asked you here today to see if you would like to move back in with us . britt : [ chuckles ] sabrina : patrick told me that luke spencer made the accident happen . carlos : luke spencer ? sabrina : yes . carlos : why ? sabrina : this little boy has a big crush on emma , and he -- apparently , he overheard luke plotting something , and when the boy confronted him and threatened to expose him , luke arranged for the accident to prove to the boy that he could hurt emma . carlos : that does n't -- it does n't even seem possible . sabrina : yeah , but what if it is ? that accident could have been directed at spencer cassadine and not at me and gabriel . carlos : or luke is lying to the kid . he used the accident to get the boy to do what he wanted . sabrina : i guess he could have . but is n't it possible that ava was doing the same thing to you ? morgan : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . ava , ava , what 's happening ? you 're not -- you 're not -- you 're not having the baby right now ? ava : no ! god , no ! i hope not . morgan : okay . ava : it 's too soon . morgan : then what is it ? what is it ? ava : you know , it 's probably just like the other night when i ended up at the hospital . it 's just cr - cramps ! morgan : oh , wow . wow . those are so cramps . ava : oh , tell me about it ! morgan : they gave you pills for the pain . where are the pills at ? ava : i do n't have them . jordan has them . jordan : hey , i 'm just glad that you got to michael on time , you know ? shawn : i do n't get it . you know sonny 's hell - bent on getting to ava , but you wo n't give up any info . jordan : you 're damn right i wo n't . shawn : yeah . you go out of your way to warn me that someone 's out to kill sonny 's kid . jordan : so , what 's your point ? shawn : well , the hit must have come straight from someone in the jeromes ' organization . now , you 're fiercely loyal to the family you work for when it 's about ava , but when someone puts a hit on michael , you betray them without hesitation . jordan : how 'bout that ? [ chuckles ] shawn : you know julian would kill you in a heartbeat if he found out you leaked the hit . why would you risk your own life to spare sonny corinthos ' son ? jordan : because of you . rosalie : you mean dr. clay knows everything about what you 've been -- nina : silas knows that i 've been back on my feet for a while , thanks to rosalie and all her help to get me there . silas : and now her work here is done . rosalie : well , i 'm so glad that the secret is finally out ! is n't it awesome , dr. clay ? you must be buggin ' . silas : oh , i 'm -- i 'm buggin ' , and it is awesome , rosalie . however , nina 's recuperation -- although that 's good news for her , it 's not great news for you . we will not be needed your services anymore . rosalie : what about you , mrs. clay ? do you , uh , feel comfortable cutting me out of your life ? patrick : sam , you okay ? sam : uh ... yeah . no . y - yes . i mean , yes , i 'm fine . i 'm just , um -- i guess i 'm just jet - lagged , you know ? a strange -- strange hotel , strange bed . patrick : i know what 's wrong . sam : you do ? patrick : yes . you can admit it . sam : what ? patrick : it 's weird , waking up in bed with me in the same bed as you . sam : no , no , no . i was n't -- i was n't thinking that at all . patrick : i should have went and got another hotel . sam : no , of course not . do n't be silly . no . this is fine . patrick : right . it 's fine , right ? 'cause , i mean , we made it . sam : wait . what -- what did we make ? patrick : well , we made it through the night without anything happening , right ? sam : yeah . right . patrick : hey . it 's probably getting late . sam : yeah . patrick : we should get a move on . sam : yeah , that 's a good idea . patrick : we should , uh , check with tracy and see if she heard from luke . i want to get some answers today . sam : me , too . i agree . patrick : do you want to go in the shower first ? sam : no , no . go ahead . patrick : you sure ? sam : i have to check on danny . yeah . go ahead . patrick : okay . sam : give him a big kiss from his mom , and i 'll be home soon , okay ? okay . i love you . bye . [ knock on door ] tracy : sam ? ! sam , open up ! what on earth ? ! you 're not even dressed ! sam : [ sighs ] tracy : what have you and patrick been doing in here ? oh , never mind . i get the picture all too clearly . carlos : no , no , no . ava threatened me . sabrina : uh - huh . carlos : she said that she would hurt you and the baby . i heard about the accident . i confronted her . she said that it was all her doing . sabrina : after the fact ? carlos : oh , no , no . oh , no , no , no ! i ca n't believe thi -- i know everything that that woman is capable of -- everything ! i never thought that she might not be telling the truth ! sabrina : so , then it really is possible that ava was lying ? carlos : yeah ... sabrina : oh , my god . carlos : ... it 's possible . maybe she took advantage of a situation that she did n't actually cause just to control me . sabrina : carlos ... this changes everything . carlos : the last time i was here , you were thinking about taking matters into your own hands , but it 's a good thing i talked you out of that , right ? because i 've been scared that you 'd go after ava . sabrina : carlos , i did go after ava ! i was so sure that she was responsible for gabriel 's death , and i wanted her to hurt the way she hurt me ! carlos : oh , dios mío . what did you do ? ava : [ groans ] morgan : why does jordan have your meds ? ava : i had to get the hell out of my -- my place when your father 's men tried to kidnap me , remember ? j - jordan ended up with the pills . here . she -- she just texted me . [ groans ] shawn : you helped save michael 's life because of me ? jordan : yeah . i 'm sure sonny was less than pleased when i stopped you from kidnapping ava . shawn : i took a lot of heat for what i let you do . jordan : exactly . that 's why i thought i owed you one . shawn : is that right ? and where is all this remorse coming from all of a sudden ? jordan : michael 's innocent . he 's not part of the business . he 's not part of the corinthos / jerome war . i mean , he does n't deserve to die . shawn : and a woman who brings heroin and coke on the streets so kids like rafe can buy them is claiming to have feelings for michael because he 's innocent ? yeah , no . something 's just not sitting right . jordan : well , i do n't know how else i could explain it to you , shawn . shawn : because i know you , jordan . and something else is going on . what is it ? britt : you 're serious ? you want me to move back in with you ? nikolas : that 's right . britt : as your roommate or ... ? spencer : that would be castlemate , and no . tell her , dad . nikolas : i think she 's figuring it out . britt : wait . y -- [ chuckles ] you do n't want us to ... spencer : he wants you to get back together with him . sorry , dad , but she was taking so long . nikolas : i -- [ chuckles ] britt : even after what i did to your sister ? nikolas : look , lulu will never forget what you did , and she may never forgive you , but i know what it cost you to lose ben . britt : you mean rocco . spencer : what a townie name . nikolas : and i know how hard you 've worked to prove yourself , and you have . britt : thank god . [ both chuckle ] nikolas : well ? britt : nikolas ... spencer : just say yes ! britt : i ca n't -- not if elizabeth is gon na come between us . nikolas : elizabeth and i are through . britt : you 're sure ? nikolas : yes . i swear . we 're -- we 're finished . you and i , on the other hand , have an awful lot of lost time to make up for . britt : [ chuckles ] nikolas : so , what do you say ? move back in with us , get a fresh start , start over , see how it goes ? what do you say ? britt : [ gasps ] [ laughing ] yes . i - i 've been dreaming of this . yes . spencer : whoo ! sa - weet ! yes ! whoo - hoo ! whoo - hoo ! yeah ! whoo - hoo ! rosalie : mrs. clay , you 're not gon na let dr. clay give me the ax , are you , after all we 've shared ? nina : it is very difficult to let her go , sí . silas : you do n't need her . nina : she 's really resourceful . i mean , rosalie can clean better than anyone my mother ever employed . rosalie : excuse me ? ! nina : it 's a very noble profession . silas : rosalie is a registered nurse . i really do n't think she wants to be our housekeeper . rosalie : yeah . he got that part right . silas : and there you go . well , i 'll give you guys a few moments to say goodbye . rosalie : [ sighs ] what the hell happened ? nina : he caught me running after franco last night . rosalie : what ? running ? nina : yeah . after he got a look at all of that , there was no going back . rosalie : oh , you idiot . nina : excuse me ? what are you complaining about ? you 've been double - dipping for months with a salary that i 've been giving you and what you 've been getting from silas . rosalie : well , the only reason he is paying me is because he thinks you 're tapped out . nina : and he 's not gon na hear otherwise from you . rosalie : whatever . it 's not like it matters anyway . he fired me ! and you did n't even do anything to stand up -- oh , pardon the expression -- for me . nina : i did what a could . rosalie : oh , yeah ? offering my services to scrub your floors -- thanks a lot ! nina : okay . keep your voice down . stop complaining . you have a job -- destroying kiki by bedding michael . rosalie : no . i told you i 'm not gon na do that . nina : uh , excuse me ? i beg your pardon . nina : wow . my goodness . it sounded like you were defying me . rosalie : i am trying to tell you that your big plan is not going to work . i tried to get closer to michael . i even went over to his apartment yesterday . nina : and ? rosalie : and , uh , a hit man showed up and almost killed both of us . nina : [ gasps ] oh , my . wow . by -- by `` hit man , `` do you mean a mafia man , a ninja , or a muscle - bound robot man from the future ? rosalie : could i make that up ? it happened . nina : well , even if it did happen , rosalie , a clever woman would have used that as a bonding experience . rosalie : you know what ? i never wanted to do this to michael . he 's a really decent guy . believe me -- he deserves light - years better than that selfish twit kiki . nina : okay , good to know . so , you 're with the angels . you are saving michael from kiki . rosalie : he wants to be with her , okay ? he would feel guilty if he slept with me . besides , i like his brother . nina : the question you 're not asking yourself is , `` what does this have to do with nina , the woman who 's paying me ? `` rosalie : i 'm sorry . yeah , i forgot -- everything is about you , is n't it ? nina : yes , it is about me . duh . obviously . i 'm employing you . you are not helping me with my list . kiki 's mom -- i have to work on her . she 's disappeared . that baby is gon na pop any time , and we have a lot of work cut out for us . rosalie : fine . what do you want me to do about ava ? nina : do n't worry about ava . just work on destroying kiki and michael 's relationship . rosalie : no . nina : and then we will find ava . yes ! rosalie : i told you no , okay ? nina : then silas is n't gon na be the only one firing you . i will , too . rosalie : fine ! but just remember i know all of your secrets ! [ door slams ] nina : rosalie ! silas : everything okay ? nurse congeniality has left the building ? nina : yeah . she 's very , very upset about losing her job . carlos : ava 's pregnant ? sabrina : yes . not too long ago , she came in to the hospital . she was in a lot of pain . carlos : what happened ? something wrong with the baby ? sabrina : it was just cramps . but ava left before the doctor could give her the prescription , so i had it filled . carlos : oh , no . sabrina : i realized that ava 's baby was about as far along as i was with gabriel when the accident happened , and when i had the prescription in my hand -- i do n't know -- something just came over me . carlos : no , no , no . please do n't tell me what i think you 're gon na tell me . sabrina : all i could think about was my baby . because of ava , gabriel was born too soon . because of ava ... gabriel could n't survive . because of that woman , my son was in the ground . so i switched ava 's medication . instead of giving her something safe for the baby , i gave her a medication that would induce labor . i wanted what happened to my baby to happen to hers . ava : breathe , right ? yeah , breathing is good . in ... out . ahh ! ohh , morgan ! please hurry . [ exhales sharply ] shawn : you know , jordan , i 'm really sorry that , um , things went south between us . just be honest with me , okay ? and , you know , maybe we can start taking baby steps and get things back the way they were . jordan ? will you talk to me ? jordan : uh , i have to use the ladies ' room . shawn : yeah . jordan : excuse me . shawn : i 'll be here when you get back . jordan : uh ... is there something i can do for you ? morgan : yeah . ava sent me . i know all about what happened . jordan : oh . so , how she 's doing ? morgan : she 's safe , but she 's having trouble . i need the pills . jordan : right . um ... can you tell her that i 'm hoping she 's pulling through this ? morgan : yeah . i 'm making sure she does . jordan : good . thank you . morgan : yeah . same to you . spencer : so , how soon can you relocate ? britt : i do n't -- what 's a convenient time ? spencer : um ... tonight ! nikolas : yes . the sooner , the better . britt : okay . wow . okay . nikolas : do n't , uh -- do n't worry about anything . i 'll arrange for my staff to come pick up your things from brad 's , okay ? excuse me . spencer : it worked . our plan -- it finally worked ! tracy : now i understand why you followed me to amsterdam . you did n't want to just explore your far - fetched theories about luke . you wanted to explore each other . patrick : tracy , not that it 's any of your business , but if we wanted to explore each other , we 'd do that in port charles . sam : exactly , and if any exploring happened , it would have been your fault . tracy : how do you figure that ? sam : because you would n't share your room with me . tracy : because i did n't want luke to show up and find me with a private investigator ! and i did n't want to share my room with you . grow up . sam : you grow up ! you laughed in my face and slammed the door . tracy : well , that 's because sometimes you are serendipitously hilarious . sam : [ sighs ] anyway , yes -- patrick and i had to share a room because of you . tracy : a simple `` thank you `` would suffice . sam : oh , will you stop ? patrick : knock it off with the innuendos , tracy . so , about your wandering husband -- have you heard from luke yet ? patrick : did luke get ahold of you ? tracy : of course he did . he ca n't wait to see me . sam : good . where are you meeting him ? patrick : and when ? tracy : look , i know you think you have excellent reasons for wanting to confront luke , but you have to let me have some time alone with my husband , just for a while . sam : i do n't think that 's the best idea . tracy : why -- 'cause you do n't trust me ? patrick : well , there 's that , but , more importantly , we do n't trust luke . tracy : whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty ? patrick : this is n't a court of law , tracy . we 're actually trying to find the truth . tracy : well , you 're gon na have a much better shot at that if you let me have some alone time with him . i can figure out if there 's any truth at all to these ridiculous accusations you and dante are making . patrick : i appreciate you going into this with an open mind . tracy : well , forgive me if i can not visualize my husband being a crime boss who traffics in drugs , and , for that matter , i ca n't fathom him causing that accident . patrick : well , i 'm sorry , but i can . so , if you 're gon na meet with luke alone , we want the details . tracy : okay . not until you promise that i can have some alone time with him . do you promise me ? spencer : what 's wrong ? this is all we 've ever wanted . it 's taken us months to convince father to take you back , and now all of our hard work has paid off . britt : i guess it has . spencer : it was totally worth it . even being grounded for most of the summer was totally worth it . and my running away helped prove to my father that he needs you in his life . britt : yeah , it definitely proves something . spencer : and the timing of my aunt lulu 's kidnapping could n't have been better . it was like the ice cream on the pie of opportunity . britt : even so , i did n't earn this second chance with your dad fair and square . spencer : all is fair in love and war . he 's taking you back ! britt : but if he ever found out that you ran away to try and make us get closer and i was in on it , that 'd be the end of us -- for good . spencer : then father must never know . nikolas : your move back in to wyndemere is all set . what ? what did i interrupt ? shawn : okay . so , let 's hear it . why did you tell me about the hit on michael ? jordan : why are you looking a gift horse in the mouth ? you saved michael 's life . that should put you back in good graces with sonny , and that is the most important thing to you , right ? shawn : and saving ava 's life is what 's most important to you , right ? jordan : yeah . you know what ? what can i say ? we 're both really good employees . shawn : you know , just so we 're clear ... as long as ava 's still out there , i wo n't stop looking for her . jordan : i would n't expect anything less . shawn : and i wo n't be with you , no matter how much i want you , no matter how much you want me . and i know you do . sabrina : i was so sure that ava had done it . and at the time , it had just been one thing after another . first i lose patrick on my wedding day , and then the one thing -- one thing -- that would have made it all bearable , my son , my gabriel ... [ crying ] ... he died . carlos : your son was innocent . he did n't deserve to die . you are a good person . you 're a nurse . you do n't hurt babies . even if ava is guilty , her baby -- querida , her baby is innocent . what did you do ? did you hurt ava 's baby ? sabrina : i do n't know . i kept waiting to hear if ava had been admitted to the hospital in premature labor , and then i found out that she had n't even taken the pills yet . carlos : when was this ? sabrina : i do n't know . sometime last week , maybe . i do n't -- i do n't know . i do n't remember . carlos : does ava still have the pills ? sabrina : no , i do n't think so . and you know what ? she would be further along than i was with gabriel . carlos : even so , if she had the baby now , would it still be dangerous ? sabrina : yeah . carlos : then you have to do something , sabrina . you have to make sure ava does not take those pills . rosalie : morgan ? hey . morgan : hey . rosalie : i brought you some coffee . morgan : uh , okay . i 'm just in the middle of something . rosalie : i was hoping that we could talk . morgan : yeah , sure . rosalie : maybe just start over ? morgan : i do n't think so . i got to -- rosalie : it 's just i 'd really like a chance to explain myself . morgan : sure . that 's fine . it 's -- this is a bad time right now . ava : aah ! damn it , morgan . where are you ? rosalie : just give me a couple of minutes , and then if you want me to leave , i will . morgan : how 'bout we just meet later ? let 's just meet later . rosalie : if i wait too long , i might lose my nerve , and i really need to tell you what 's been going on with my boss . nina : no matter what you think of rosalie , she helped me heal . i was hoping we could remain friends . she took it very hard . silas : really ? how could she not have seen this day coming ? nina : well , i 'll miss her . we had gotten very close . silas : yes . obviously , you were very close . she was willing to lie for you . nina : that 's over now . silas : right . tell me ... just how long have ... you two been keeping this little secret ? how long have you been able to walk ? britt : he was trying to get -- spencer : father , you 'll be pleased to know that britt was lecturing me about the nutritional value of fruit . nikolas : hmm . is that right ? britt : he was trying to get me to order hash browns so he could trade , and i was explaining to him why that was n't a good idea . nikolas : yeah . spencer : see , dad ? mmm ! nikolas : mmm . spencer : fiber ! nikolas : well , i 'm happy that you 're moving back in with us , and not just because you can work miracles with spencer . britt : i ca n't tell you how much this means to me . i would have done anything to make this happen . nikolas : turns out all you needed to do was be yourself . tracy : so , do we have a deal ? patrick : okay . you get some alone time with luke , but we 're gon na be close . sam : and if luke tries to run or we hear something we do n't like , we 're gon na make our move . patrick : give us the details . tracy : okay . it 's all right there . sam : all right . we 're gon na be there . you 're not gon na know it . tracy : well , let 's hope that luke does n't know it , either . you 're gon na have to be sneakier than him . you think you can do that ? sam : yeah , i think we know what we 're doing . tracy : you better , and luke better not have been lying this whole time . patrick : i know she needs to believe luke , but i have a feeling he 's gon na break her heart . sam : yeah . i have a feeling you 're right . ohh . well , if anything tracy said is true , i do need to get myself dressed . patrick : okay . i 'll go take a look at this and find a location close by for surveillance . sam : hey , you 've become a pretty good pi . patrick : well , i learned from the best . guard : time 's up . carlos : remember what i said , querida . do n't let ava 's baby get hurt . [ cell phone rings ] jordan : hello ? sabrina : ms. ashford . jordan : yes . who is this ? sabrina : this is sabrina santiago , the nurse from the other night . i got your number from the hospital . jordan : okay . would you just relax , okay ? i gave ava the medication . there 's nothing to worry about . morgan : i do n't have time for this right now . rosalie : yeah . i have to tell you what 's been going on with your brother michael and with kiki . you see , it 's all because of my boss . morgan : mm - hmm . rosalie : mrs. clay is nothing like she pretends to be . ava : morgan ! rosalie : oh , my god . ava : help me ! morgan : hey . hey , hey , hey , hey . ava : help me ! morgan : what 's going on ? what 's going on ? ava : [ groans ] silas : seems like a pretty simple question . how long have you been able to walk ? nina : um ... a few weeks . a month , tops . silas : that recently ? nina : yeah . why ? silas : i 'm just really happy for you . nina : you are ? silas : mm - hmm . you know who else will be really happy for you ? nina : who ? silas : your brother . you should go surprise him . nina : now ? silas : why wait ? nina : want to come with me ? silas : i 'd love to , but , um , i have a lot of work i need to get to here . but next time , all right ? give you and your brother a chance to catch up . nina : okay . [ cell phone rings ] sam : silas ? hey . did you get danny 's bloodwork back ? silas : the lab said they 'd have his results for me in the morning . sam : okay . then , um , why are you calling ? silas : sorry to bother you . i think you may have been right about nina . [ next_on ] silas : ( to sam ) maybe there 's some way i can make this up to you . alexis : ( to julian ) i do n't have to choose you , any more . ava : ( to rosalie ) well , it 's a pleasure . now forget you ever saw me . franco : ( to nina ) you do n't need me as well as you think you do . carly : ( to bobbie ) i told sonny that it can never happen again . sonny : ( to shawn ) franco needs to be taken out .

[ knocks on door ] paul : come . tracy ! to what do i owe this pleasure ? tracy : oh , i have often wondered how it would feel to be asked that question . paul : and ? tracy : feels suspicious , like you 're trying too hard . paul : i 'm just being my usual charming self . tracy : for you . paul : it is n't ticking . tracy : oh , well , they 've done extraordinary things with timers these days . paul : aha ! yes , the cutting edge of technology . tracy : mm - hmm . it will keep interruptions to a minimum . if that does n't teach your visitors to keep it brief , then try a cattle prod . paul : okay . tracy : go ahead , try it . paul : what brings you here ? tracy : well , i wanted to know if you have spoken to michael yet . i need to know whether or not he 's joining sonny . [ scene_break ] sabrina : felix , stop lecturing me . yes . yes , i got the test . no , i have n't taken it yet . well , because i 've been busy . yes , too busy to pee . look , i 'll do it , okay ? and then i 'll know for sure if i 'm pregnant . michael : pregnant ? who 's pregnant ? [ scene_break ] maxie : okay . thank you for the escort . you can go now . nathan : no , i think i 'll stick around , see what this acting thing is all about . maxie : why ? it 's so boring and un - glamorous . i mean , i do n't have a trailer or an assistant . yesterday , i had to make my own coffee , and i even messed that up . forgot the vanilla . seriously , if dillon was n't my friend , i would call the union on him . nathan : what do you need a union for ? you 've got a cop . besides , i think it 's about time i laid down the law with this dillon . [ scene_break ] dillon : we had this conversation last night . valerie : i just wanted to make sure we 're still cool . you said you 'd keep my secret . dillon : that 's what i said . valerie : so , are things still good ? dillon : why are you pressing this ? valerie : sometimes , things can seem different in the light of day . dillon : well , one thing has n't changed . dante is still an unfaithful husband . you know , lulu deserves to know the truth . she deserves better . [ scene_break ] dante : i 'm not gon na rest until i 've brought whoever hurt my father to justice . lulu : you will . and sonny can stop looking over his shoulder and move on with his life . dante : if he feels he has a life to move on with . he 's not the kind of person who 's gon na feel grateful to be alive if he ca n't walk . lulu : well , remind him of the reasons he is lucky . like his family . sonny has carly . she 's already proven that she will stand by him no matter what . he has five kids to be a father to , not to mention an awesome grandson . there 's no motivation more powerful than family . dante : you 're right about that . lulu : sonny will get through this , just like you , me , and rocco have made it through all the crazy ups and downs that life has thrown our way . we 're stronger than we 've ever been . dante : we could be even stronger . lulu : how ? dante : let 's have another baby . [ scene_break ] paul : thank you , tracy . but you need n't butter me up before asking for my help . tracy : i did n't ask you for help . you offered . remember ? last night ? paul : i do . tracy : so , have you spoken to michael yet ? no . i rest my case . you clearly need prompting . paul : i know i have given you plenty of reason to mistrust me over the years , as you have . but times are different . we 're different . i told you i would speak to michael about his association with sonny , and i will . tracy : the longer michael associates with sonny , the more likely it is that he 's gon na get sucked back in . paul : i called michael earlier . i expect him any minute . when he arrives , he and i are gon na have a frank discussion about what he stands to lose sticking by sonny 's side . tracy : good . paul : but let 's be straight about this , tracy . whatever familial concern you have for michael pales in comparison with your own self - interests . what are you up to ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : michael 's here . i 've got to go , felix . bye . michael , hi . michael : hey . so , you got a problem with a patient or something ? sabrina : a patient ? michael : you said someone 's pregnant . so i figured ... sabrina : yes , yes , you 're right . a patient . felix was just asking me for some advice . on a patient . it 's so good to see you outside of the hospital . how are you ? michael : um , i 'm doing better . my father seems to be holding up . he 's even talking about moving forward with marrying my mom . sabrina : oh , wow ! that 's great . michael : yeah . sabrina : wow , yeah , that 's really important for sonny to stay positive . michael : yeah . any good news would help . i mean , the judge returning avery or the location of carlos so we can finally find out who shot my father and why . [ scene_break ] alexis : you said there was bacon . julian : try not to get any grease on your gift , huh ? alexis : i thought you were joking . you really got me a present . julian : yes , well , it 's ... alexis : what 's the occasion ? julian : ... been in the works for a while . i was just waiting for the right time to give it to you . once sam announced her engagement , i realized there 's no time like the present . alexis : usually , it 's the bride that gets the gift . julian : well , why ca n't the mother of the bride get her due ? alexis : you did this ? julian : well , molly helped . alexis : you and molly worked together ? julian : [ chuckling ] well ... as it turns out , she loves you more than she dislikes me . so i would n't say she was eager , but she was willing to participate once i told her that i wanted a reflection of you and your family , from the past and present . and , uh , here . i , uh ... i left a little room for the future . alexis : [ voice breaking ] it 's beautiful . julian : thanks . i know we have some challenges ahead . i 'm facing these charges for hijacking sonny 's trucks , but i 'm confident i 'm gon na beat that , since i have the best lawyer in town . alexis : [ chuckles ] aw , shucks . julian : [ chuckles ] someday soon i 'm gon na truly be free . and then we 'll -- maybe we 'll start our life together . and we can fill the rest of these pages in together . hmm ? alexis : [ sniffles ] julian : hmm . [ scene_break ] lulu : you want to have another baby ? dante : well , it is n't like we have n't discussed it . lulu : [ scoffs ] yeah , i thought that you wanted to wait . that 's why i have n't been pressuring you . dante : so , you thought about it ? lulu : only all the time . you know when your dad was all set to marry carly , before everything went to hell , you remember how it felt to see baby avery ? like , the best feeling in the world . dante : no question . lulu : i want to feel like that again with a baby of our own . dante : i told you i was ready when you are . lulu : i thought you were caught up in the moment -- the wedding and everything . but if you really want this ... dante : the point is for us to both want it . lulu : i just want you to be sure . do n't do this to make up for what happened with you and valerie . [ scene_break ] valerie : i am so embarrassed . dillon : do n't be . valerie : what was i thinking , throwing myself at you like that ? dillon : maybe i should tell lulu the truth about you and dante . valerie : you ca n't . dillon : i know i promised , but i mean , sometimes , you know ... [ chuckles ] valerie : we both know you care too much about lulu to destroy her family for no good reason . dante cheated on lulu . is n't that reason enough ? valerie : it was a one - time thing , the result of a terrible misunderstanding . it was a mistake , dillon . have n't you ever screwed up ? of course , i have . i know what it 's like to be the liar . valerie : then you understand that dante deserves a second chance . he 's committed to lulu . he does n't want me and lulu does n't want you . unrequited love sucks . no one knows that more than me . but at least we can tell ourselves that we 're doing the right thing . we made it a point not to sabotage a family that deserves happiness . andy : dillon , want to check out my behind - the - scenes footage ? dillon : now is not a good time . andy : i 've got some really good stuff . it probably should n't all be in , but ... dillon : okay , it 's your project , so do whatever you want . be the director , okay . andy : right . okay . dillon : sorry . still here . valerie : look , no one can find out that dante and i slept together . and it 'll stay our secret so long as we both keep our mouths shut . [ tape replays ] valerie : of course , i would never say anything to anyone . dillon : thank you . valerie : whoa , this is bigger . dillon : how big ? valerie : [ sighs ] dante and i slept together . [ back to present ] valerie : dillon , please . i know how you feel about dante , but spilling your guts is only gon na make everything worse , and it 's not gon na help you with lulu . dillon : you think i would tell lulu about her cheating husband just to get something out of it ? valerie : it has n't crossed your mind , that she would come running to you for comfort ? it 's not gon na happen , dillon . dillon : so what am i supposed to do ? just go on letting lulu be married to a liar , and just keep this a secret forever ? valerie : it 's more honorable than getting it off your chest at the extent of lulu 's family . do you want that on your conscience ? dillon : [ sighs ] valerie : dillon , are you still there ? dillon : yeah . valerie : what are you gon na do ? dillon : nothing stupid . nathan : hey . you have a second for the pcpd ? [ scene_break ] dante : having another child has nothing to do with what happened with me and valerie . it 's about you and i loving each other . lulu : we do . more than anything . dante : so it 's decided that we want to have a second child . why do n't we start the process ? i mean ... if we wait , things could change , something could happen . lulu : is this about what sonny went through ? dante : he got pretty close there . you know , one thing goes wrong in the or and sonny 's not here right now and avery does n't have a father . lulu : yeah , but he is here right now . and she does have a father . sonny made it . we will too . dante : i want to believe that . lulu : believe it . we 're not going anywhere . we 're stuck with each other . i will make an appointment with my ob . if she gives us the green light , then we 'll take it from there . dante : i like the way you think . [ scene_break ] valerie : can i get the squad 's usual , just a coffee and a box of doughnuts ? sabrina : hey , valerie . valerie : hi . sabrina : hi . michael : you okay ? valerie : yeah , just late . forgot it was my day to buy doughnuts . [ cell phone beeps ] michael : actually , i think ... yeah , i got to get going . i have an appointment with paul hornsby . sabrina : hmm ? what about ? michael : hopefully he 'll tell me that carlos is behind bars . want to walk me out ? sabrina : uh , yeah , sure . michael : oh , i 'll keep the da occupied until you can deliver that coffee . valerie : thanks . i owe you . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] maxie : nathan , please do n't do this . nathan : maxie , stay out of this . this is official business . dillon : what official business ? maxie : nothing . nathan was just leaving . nathan : no , nathan 's here to investigate working conditions on your set . there 's complaints about the long hours , abusive behavior . dillon : what ? maxie : he 's joking . please stop . no one is complaining . nathan : also , there have been questions raised about discrepancies on your shooting permits . dillon : you know what , i have had enough of this . i 've already lost a whole day of shooting due to this bureaucratic garbage , okay ? i 've filed all the right paperwork . if somebody has a problem with the way i run a set , they can come to me about it . nathan : oh , dillon , no need to get defensive . you just keep everything legit and aboveboard . and you keep your hands off my girlfriend . break a leg . maxie : bye . shall we get to work ? [ scene_break ] tracy : how can you accuse me of having anything but michael 's best interest at heart ? paul : you 've never had any use for alan and monica 's brood except if they serve your agenda . so what 's your angle ? why do you care whether or not michael supports sonny ? tracy : for the same reason you should -- to protect our son 's inheritance . i made some significant errors in judgment , which allowed nikolas cassadine to get control of elq . after nikolas , michael controls the largest piece of the company . i can not allow it to be fragmented any further . paul : so , if sonny gets his hooks into michael ... tracy : he gets his hooks into elq . paul : i ca n't fault your logic . tracy : i was n't going for your approval , but thank you . paul : i 'll do what i can to help . tracy : good . i certainly hope you do better with michael than you did with this timer . i am way past my limit . you did n't even notice . paul : did it ever occur to you that i just enjoy your company ? [ scene_break ] olivia : oh , there 's my handsome boy ! dante : when did you get back ? olivia : oh , just now . i came right here to see your father . dante : oh , that 's good . he 'll appreciate the visit . olivia : no , wait , wait , wait . i 'll get to this soon . first i want to hear what 's going on with you . you look suspiciously cheerful . dante : well , aside from worrying about sonny 's health nonstop , everything is , uh , pretty good . olivia : how good ? dante : well , you act like i 'm not in a good mood . olivia : do n't -- do n't -- do n't do that to me . just spill it . what ? dante : okay , well , lulu and i have talked about it , and think we 're gon na have another baby . olivia : [ gasps ] oh , honey . dante : okay , look . olivia : that 's fantastic . congratulations ! dante : please keep it to yourself , okay , because i do n't want to put any pressure on her . olivia : all right . i get it , i get it , i get it . but i know , i know everything is gon na work out for you perfectly . my little leo 's gon na be an uncle again ! [ laughs ] dante : i do n't know if he can quite grasp the concept yet . olivia : i do n't care . i would go and tell him right now if i did n't have to hide him from his father . [ scene_break ] julian : well , i 'm glad you liked your present . alexis : like it ? i love it . julian : [ chuckles ] well , i was afraid you might find it hokey or something . alexis : hokey ? this is fantastic , and i ca n't wait to fill all these empty pages with memories of the two of us and our family . julian : hmm . neither can i. mm . alexis : so , why not make it easier for that to happen ? julian : what did you have in mind ? alexis : move in with me . [ scene_break ] maxie : so , is there coffee ? dillon : ah , ah , ah . no , no , no , maxie . what the hell was that ? maxie : [ sighs ] do n't worry about nathan , okay ? dillon : really ? maxie : he just went a little caveman because he 's upset about our sex scene . he does n't see the artistic merit . dillon : did you tell him that it 's all pretend ? that it 's totally choreographed ? that there was no actual sex involved ? maxie : seriously , i 've tried . but nathan , he 's a fan of pro wrestling . i mean , he claims to know that it 's fake , but deep down , he believes that it 's real . dillon : and the man is allowed to carry a gun ? maxie : he was just banging his chest a little . but nathan is too good of a guy to actually cause problems for you . can we talk about something important ? i 'm worried about this scene . dillon : why ? do you think it needs another re - write , or ... maxie : no , i think that it 's beautiful . but i have to cry . dillon : well , yeah , so do i . maxie : yeah , but you 're way more in touch with your emotions than i am . look , i went to the library . dillon : libraries still exist ? maxie : i know , right ? i checked out these acting manuals , hoping they would give me some guidance , but they 're so mystical , they might as well be written in elvish . dillon : elvish ? maxie : too much time with spinelli . sorry . but -- affective memory ? imaginary circumstances ? harnessing sense memory ? what the heck is that ? dillon : if worst comes to worst , we 'll fake it with some glycerin . a few drops in the eye , boom -- instant tears . maxie : no . no way . i want it to be real . dillon : okay , well , then , when the time comes , think of the saddest thing that you 've ever lived through . maxie : and that works ? dillon : for some people . give it a try . see , you did . maxie : yeah , and it sucks . all i had to do was think about my sister . dillon : yeah . losing georgie is what i think about , too . maxie : okay . should we get to work ? dillon : yeah . [ scene_break ] man : scene 32 , take 4 . dillon : you will always have a piece of my heart . maxie : do n't say that . you 're just making it harder for both of us . dillon : it 's the truth . and if this thing that we have between us has come to an end , i want you to know what losing you is going to cost me . i want you to know that i will always love -- [ lulu enters rustling some bags ] dillon : love you . [ scene_break ] dante : now , how 's my baby brother ? olivia : well , come to the metro court and see for yourself . dante : what ? what are you , out of your mind ? olivia : no , he 's holed up in my room with the nanny . dante : mom , what are you talking about ? everything we did to protect leo from julian -- if they cross paths , it 's over . olivia : maybe that would n't be the worst thing in the world . dante : since when ? olivia : since i hit the breaking point , okay ? dante : what 's going on ? olivia : i ca n't -- i ca n't do this . i was crazy to think that i could live with these two homes , with leo in brooklyn and you in port charles . i ca n't do it . it 's driving me crazy . it 's -- it 's -- it 's -- it 's killing me . i want leo with me , and i want my whole family together . dante : okay . i agree with you , ma , but the best way to keep leo secret is to keep him out of port charles . olivia : but what if -- just what if julian is telling the truth , for once ? i mean , maybe alexis is right . maybe he 's really out of the mob . maybe it would be safe for leo to know his father after all . [ scene_break ] julian : are you kidding ? alexis : this is my serious face . julian : you really want me to move in with you ? alexis : even with your exercise equipment . julian : wow . you 're not fooling around . alexis : no . julian : you know , we have gone down this road before . i mean , we went so far as to fantasize about remodels and renovations , but nothing ever materialized . alexis : well , it 's materializing now . i want you to move in . julian : strictly speaking , it is n't your penthouse . alexis : but i have a very benevolent landlord . so i think sam will be fine with it . julian : it 's not really sam i 'm worried about . it 's more molly . it is her home , too . alexis : she 's gon na have to learn to share it with you . julian : just like that ? alexis : i 'm very sensitive to molly 's feelings . but she knows that we have a life together . julian : well , it 's not quite the same as having me in a room across the hall . alexis : she spends most of her time at campus , and kind of seems like the two of you are -- well , things seem to be thawing out . julian : they are ? alexis : yeah . you made that photo album together . i mean , arts and crafts are half the battle . julian : [ sighs ] [ chuckles ] are you sure this is what you really want ? alexis : i 'm sure . you have made extraordinary steps to change your life , and i want to take the next steps with you . julian : you make a compelling argument , counselor . [ scene_break ] [ knocks on door ] paul : come in . michael . thanks for coming . have a seat . michael : so , uh ... what can i do for you , mr. da ? paul : [ chuckling ] michael . paul . we 're family . at least , you and my son are . michael : so , if this is n't an official meeting , why could n't we talk at the house ? paul : well , you 're hardly ever around the house anymore . i know you 're down at the hospital a lot , visiting sonny . and possibly out hunting for his ... shooter . michael : well , that 's up to the police . paul : well , the presence of law enforcement has never stopped sonny or any of his people from taking action as they see fit . tell me , are you one of sonny 's people ? michael : i 'm his son . paul : well , you 're aj 's son , too . it would be a shame if you squandered all that you 've built as a quartermaine by giving in to your instincts as a corinthos . michael : instincts ? paul : well , you must be tempted to avenge sonny . perhaps take up his mantle . and that would be a mistake . you 're not made for sonny 's kind of life . trying to live it would only cost you , and those closest to you , as well . sabrina : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] [ sighs ] quit stalling and deal with it . [ scene_break ] valerie : ooh ! ohh ! nathan : i am sorry . valerie : ugh , crap . i 'm pretty sure that was me . nathan : no , no . valerie : ugh . this is not my day . first , i forget that i 'm in charge of bringing the doughnuts for monday 's meeting , and now i 'm late with no doughnuts . and i was supposed to bring henry the ballistics report before the briefing . nathan : hey . just go . i will get you more doughnuts . it 's all right , okay ? go . tell everybody i 'm right behind you . valerie : really ? nathan : yes . valerie : you 're a lifesaver . nathan : [ sighs ] valerie , wait ! [ scene_break ] sabrina : what the -- where 's my pregnancy test ? [ scene_break ] michael : renounce sonny and embrace all things quartermaine ? paul : that would be the most prudent course of action . michael : well , maybe i do n't want to treat sonny the way that dillon and tracy have treated you . tracy ? this is her standard gift she gives to business associates . next time you see tracy , why do n't tell her to deal with me directly instead of having you send the message ? paul : i 'm not speaking to you simply as a friend of tracy 's . i 'm speaking to you as the district attorney . now , sonny may be sidelined for now , but his organization is still up and running . michael : yeah , you 're right . corinthos coffee is doing business as usual . paul : i was referring to his extensive criminal enterprises , which happen to be the current focus of an ongoing investigation by the district attorney 's office . now , whoever takes over for sonny will feel the heat , no matter what his last name is . michael : noted . it 's time for me to go . [ scene_break ] sabrina : no , felix , i still have n't taken the test yet . well , because i lost it . [ laughs ] i do n't know how . i just did . no . no , uh , you do not need to bring me one . i bought another test , but i am just not home yet . yes , i 'll take it soon . and i promise -- i will call you as soon as i find out if i 'm pregnant or not . bye . [ scene_break ] dante : think about it , ma . carlos rivera 's a prime suspect in sonny 's shooting . he 's an enforcer for the jeromes . olivia : okay , okay , but is n't it just possible that rivera went after sonny on his own ? dante : well , that 's what ava wants you to believe . she 's trying to misdirect by saying it was n't her or her brother . i mean , she -- she told us that carlos rivera shot connie . olivia : listen , listen . i would n't believe ava jerome 's word if she said that the sun rises in the east , but there 's no actual proof , right , that julian went after sonny ? dante : well , he 's still awaiting trial for hijacking sonny 's trucks . olivia : okay , okay , but -- but that 's not the same as actually -- just being accused does n't mean he 's necessarily guilty , right ? dante : ma , i know what you want to hear from me , but in good conscience i can not tell you that it is a good idea to move leo back to port charles full time , let alone let julian meet him and find out that the kid is his son . [ scene_break ] alexis : no , this is good . this is good . the penthouse has enough room . we 'll just turn danny 's old room into your workout room , and we just need some more closets -- julian : alexis , alexis , just slow down . alexis : oh , god , you 're having second thoughts already . julian : no . not at all . it 's just -- look , i 'm definitely moving in , but the duration of my stay is up in the air , since i 'm still facing charges . we just do n't know how -- alexis : i 'll get you acquitted . you do n't trust my expertise ? julian : [ sighs ] no . it 's not that . it -- look , we 're on the verge of starting our new life together , and -- i know it sounds ridiculous . i just do n't want to jinx it . alexis : you 're right . that 's ridiculous . [ cell phone rings ] julian : but you -- alexis : it 's the da 's office . alexis davis . paul : paul hornsby . do you have a minute ? we need to discuss your client 's future . alexis : what client ? paul : the one who matters most to you . [ scene_break ] olivia : okay , well , i probably better go see sonny before the line of well wishes gets too long . dante : okay , look . let -- let 's talk this over with lulu and see if we can come up with some alternate solutions . olivia : okay . dante : okay ? but please , just do n't -- do n't do anything rash , okay ? olivia : i promise . i love you . dante : i love you , too . [ cell phone rings ] dante : falconeri . nathan : hey , dante . are you at work yet ? dante : no , i 'm on my way in right now . nathan : all right , well , come and find me when you get there , okay ? dante : why , what 's up ? nathan : i 'll tell you when i see you . [ scene_break ] maxie : i do n't know what to say . declan . dillon . dillon : uh , um -- cut ! maxie : what -- what happened ? i was n't sad enough , was i ? dillon : no , you were plenty sad . excuse me . lulu : hey , hey , i know that you ca n't afford craft services , so i brought treats for the crew after you 're done finishing this scene . dillon : yeah , but we did n't finish filming this scene because you brought it to a screeching halt when you came barging in and ripped me out of the moment . lulu : i am so sorry . i did n't realize that you guys were filming . dillon : you did n't realize that we were filming ? are you that oblivious or do you just not care ? ! lulu : of course , i care , dillon . dillon : i mean , what is it with you people ? ! you just roam around and you just do whatever makes you feel good . whatever makes you happy , right ? and to hell with the people that get hurt in the process , right ? lulu : i am sorry . i did n't mean to rip you out of the moment ! dillon : you know what ? whatever . just everybody take a lunch . i need a break . maxie : [ sighs ] lulu : maxie . what was that ? [ scene_break ] valerie : wait . what did i do with that candy ? [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] [ knocks on door ] [ knocks on door ] sabrina : [ sighs ] tracy : that 's what you 're eating when you should be having breakfast with me ? sabrina : [ groans ] i completely forgot . i 'm sorry . my head 's all over the place . tracy : i can tell . so what has you so distracted ? there 's something bothering you . is it michael ? sabrina : [ chuckles ] how 'd you know ? tracy : just a lucky guess . is it this business with sonny ? sabrina : [ scoffs ] tracy . it 's a mess . tracy : made messier by michael 's inclination to walk in his father 's shoes , and if he goes down that path , he 's gon na end up like carlos . is that what you want ? sabrina : no . tracy : well , then do your part . make sure that michael has his head screwed on straight . michael : oh , mine 's on just fine . yours , on the other hand , is about to come clean off . [ scene_break ] paul : have you got all that ? alexis : clear as day . paul : and tell julian for me -- he 's welcome . alexis : thank you , mr. da . julian : so what did the new da want ? a little pre - trail posturing ? alexis : there is n't going to be a trial . julian : what do you mean ? alexis : with the death of the principal witness , the da has decided to drop all charges . you are off the hook ! it 's over ! [ scene_break ] paul : dillon . should n't you be on the set ? dillon : we took a break . and i 'm glad i ran into you . paul : well , yeah , how lucky you are that you stumbled upon me in my office ? dillon : yeah , i had a visit from nathan west . paul : the detective ? dillon : he , uh , he thinks i 'm interested in his girlfriend , and he 's throwing veiled threats around about shutting down my production . i 've done nothing wrong , and yet , i could lose everything because of a jealous cop on a power trip . paul : and you 'd like me to intercede . dillon : as much as i hate to play the `` daddy `` card , yes . paul : well , look at this way -- you finally have a `` daddy `` card you can play . why not ? might as well take advantage . so what else is bothering you ? dillon : that 's not enough ? paul : dillon , if your only problem was a jealous boyfriend who 's throwing his weight around , i guess you would have called me and gotten back to work , not walked off the set . dillon : [ sighs ] have you ever cared about somebody you could n't have ? paul : that was pretty much the story between me and jenny for a long time before we were married . dillon : so what happened ? you waited her out ? paul : it was more complicated . does this woman in question know how you feel about her ? dillon : no . paul : maybe it 's time you let her know . dillon : it 's more complicated . telling her could ruin things . paul : well , then things remain as they are . can you live with that ? [ scene_break ] lulu : i do n't think dillon has ever gone off on me like that -- not even when we were teenagers . maxie : he just needs time to cool off , okay ? we were in the middle of an intense scene , and he 's probably just mad at himself because he lost focus . lulu : mnh - mnh . no , i do n't buy that . that was more than an artistic tantrum . i must have done something to hurt dillon or piss him off , but i do n't know what it could be . maxie : i 'm sure if you really think about it , you can figure it out . lulu : [ scoffs ] you know , do n't you ? what ? maxie : i did n't say that . lulu : you did n't have to . it 's written all over your face . what is it , maxie ? what did i do to make dillon so mad at me ? [ scene_break ] dante : [ clears throat ] dude , i 'm here . nathan : hey . yeah , uh -- dante : what did you need me to find you for ? nathan : i got doughnuts . i saved you a jelly . dante : that 's why you wanted me to find you ? so i could have a jelly doughnut ? nathan : no . no , no , there 's , uh , there 's more than that . dante : uh - huh . nathan : look , man , i did n't want to get involved , you know . dante : in ... ? nathan : i guess it 's none of my business , but i kept thinking , you know , if the tables were turned , i would want to know , so -- dante : know what , dude ? nathan : i ran into valerie , and she , um ... she dropped this . she does n't know i have it . i 'm sorry , man . [ scene_break ] julian : so it 's really over ? there 's nothing hanging over our heads anymore ? alexis : yeah , well , i wish i could stay home , but unfortunately , my clients are n't as lucky as you are . julian : forget it . go . save the innocent . i 'll make arrangements to move my stuff to your place . alexis : mm . hey . our place . julian : right . alexis : this is really happening ? julian : unless you back out . there 's still time . alexis : there 's no chance of that , jerome . tomorrow when you leave work , you 're coming home with me . julian : to our place . mm . alexis : now you got it . olivia : [ gasps ] [ scene_break ] sabrina : michael . what are you doing here ? i thought you had a meeting . michael : well , it got off on the wrong foot when tracy sicced the da on me . so i figured i 'd try to salvage the rest of my day by spending it with my girlfriend , so could you please -- tracy : i 'll see myself out . sabrina : wait , wait , wait . tracy was just looking out for you . michael : no , she 's interfering . look , tracy , i 've , uh , heard your concerns , but now you need to hear me . sonny is my father . he nearly died , and i 'm gon na do whatever i feel necessary to keep him safe and support his recovery . tracy : well , sonny is not an innocent victim . he traffics in violence , and it finally came back to bite him . do not follow him down that path ! michael , we 're family . [ slams door ] michael : so how was your day ? sabrina : uh , it -- uh , uneventful . [ scene_break ] nathan : what are you gon na do ? dante : i do n't know . nathan : well , you better figure it out . here she is . [ scene_break ] lulu : give it up , maxie . tell me -- why is dillon so upset ? maxie : i think you should talk to dillon about it . lulu : dillon 's not here . i 'm talking to you . maxie : i 'm sorry . i promised i would n't say anything , and a promise is a promise . lulu : unh - unh . unh - unh ! no way . you owe me . you are my best friend . maxie : uh , no . that is not fair . you can not do that . lulu : already did it . just tell me -- why is dillon so mad at me ? maxie : oh , for god 's sake , he 's not mad at you ! he 's in love with you ! [ scene_break ] dillon : thanks for the advice . paul : are you going to take it ? dillon : it would do more harm than good . paul : you sure ? dillon : yeah , i 'm gon na have to let things stay the way they are -- suffer in silence , no matter how much i wish i could do otherwise . [ scene_break ] dante : we need to talk . valerie : look , if this is about the jelly doughnut , i told mckay -- dante : it 's not about the damn doughnut , okay ? valerie : dante , what 's wrong with you ? dante : take a look at this . when were you going to tell me about that ? [ dillon overhears ] [ next_on ] jason ( to sam ) : you 've got less than 10 months to figure out who i am . laura ( to elizabeth ) : i think you are making a terrible mistake .

dillon admits to valerie that since it 's `` out of the bag `` for him to know that dante cheated on lulu , he has some real issues with that and given that he `` wants `` lulu , he believes she has the right to know that her husband has been unfaithful to her . she tells him she does not think that his revealing that to lulu will benefit anyone . meanwhile , unknown to both of them , the camera for the film has a recording of her admitting to him that she and dante slept together . so , unknown to both of them , `` somebody `` else knows . dante and lulu are happily together and planning to have another baby while they both suspect nothing about the `` secret `` ever coming out . olivia returns , finds dante and tells her son she ca n't keep herself and her baby , leonardo , in hiding and away from her home and family in port charles any longer . although he argues that his infant brother is , at least safe that way , she tells him that maybe she needs to consider that julian is telling the truth about being out of the mob and maybe she should stop lying to him about their mutual child being dead , and let him meet his own flesh and blood . when paul hears tracy ' s concerns about michael 's `` well - being `` in jeopardy if he goes back to recognizing sonny as his father and helping him with his business , paul tells her he knows her concerns are for her own self - interest before that of michael 's . he calls michael into his office to talk to him about how it would not be in his best interest to lead sonny 's kind of life and would only cost him and those around him . when sabrina needs to find out if she 's pregnant , she finds a home pregnancy test but when she runs into valerie at kelly 's , she mistakenly takes the item valerie purchased and valerie mistakenly takes sabrina 's pregnancy test . outside , valerie runs into nathan he he sees that she forgot what appears to be `` her `` pregnancy test when she drops stuff she 's carrying while getting back to work . although nathan has no clue that valerie , is in fact , pregnant , seeing the kit on the floor and believing it was hers ' , he puts two and two together . meanwhile , sabrina has confirmed that she is more than likely pregnant right when tracy comes to see her and urges her to convince michael not to go back into sonny 's business . michael makes it clear to tracy that she needs to stop telling him what he 's supposed to do regarding his father when he goes to see sabrina and dismisses tracy . while alexis is with julian , she gets a call from paul and he , surprisingly informs her that all charge against julian have been dropped and it 's over . he is confident he can find a way to implicate carlos in sonny 's shooting although he knows that is impossible since carlos is dead . dillon is frustrated by wanting but not being able to have lulu and knowing her husband cheated on her . he also has to deal with nathan coming by the set to confront him for what looks like a sex scene he is having with maxie . so he goes to talk to his father at the da 's office . paul tells his son he wants to help him with that but dillon concludes he should not take his father 's advice and his only option is to let it go and suffer in silence . yet he realizes he may not be able to keep doing that forever . meanwhile , nathan find valerie 's pregnancy test and knows he needs to `` share `` with dante what he suspects . dante immediately finds valerie and asks her about that . knowing that the test kit does not belong to her and not having a clue where it came from , she demands to know where he got it and is very angry with him . olivia goes to find julian at his home and brings a baby whom he does not know ( leonardo ? ) and he demands to know where the baby came from .

heather : relax . he 's safe . steve : safe with whom ? did you leave him alone ? heather : well , i did think it would be better for us to have our discussion uninterrupted . he 's got a wonderful temperament . he 's so sweet and calm -- steve : we do n't have time to catch up . there is a child 's life in danger . heather : not now . not at this time . steve : what does that mean ? heather : it means , that if anything happens to me , no one will ever see that baby again . sam : where 's my baby ? i mean , is he okay ? what did heather do to him ? jason : listen , i 'm gon na tell you everything . i just need to tell you in order for it to make any sense . sam : okay . all right , go . jason : heather was in the woods the night of the storm , the night -- the night you gave birth . sam : okay , what was she doing out there ? jason : she was burying anthony zacchara 's body . sam : okay , jason , i know i passed out when i got into that shack , but i do n't think i saw anyone . i never saw heather , and i was alone . jason : she must have seen you . sam : what ? this is so crazy . why would she do this ? is this because i did n't deliver some stupid letter ? jason : i do n't know . only heather ca n't tell you why she did it . sam : okay . okay . all right . so then it 's true , right ? so say that heather saw me put my son down outside the shack . where on earth did she get another baby to replace him with ? jason : todd manning . todd : what about sam 's baby ? what did i do ? what , i spell the kid 's name wrong in an article or something ? mcbain : sam 's baby did n't have a name . todd : because he died . i think you have to go now . do n't glare at me like that . the kid died of natural causes . even i 'm not powerful enough to make something like that happen . mcbain : yeah , that 's what the article said . turns out , it was n't true . todd : what , he did n't die of natural causes ? mcbain : he did n't die at all . but you knew that already . olivia : so i assume you got an apb ? dante : yeah , ma . okay ? roads , bus depots , train stations , airports . got alerts out to every pediatrician and hospital in the area . olivia : all right . so if everyone 's looking for her , eventually , she 's gon na surface . dante : yeah , just hope when she does , that baby 's okay . olivia : honey , you look so exhausted . dante : i 'm not the one who was here all night . mcbain at least got anna to go home and take a break . it just sucks sitting here and waiting around . olivia : maybe i can help . dante : how ? olivia : okay , maybe these , uh , premonitions or visions or whatever you want to call them that i 'm having , maybe it 's not such a bad thing . maybe it 's a blessing . dante : how do you figure ? olivia : okay . i know it 's not , like , an exact science , but maybe i can use this little psychic thing i got going on to figure out heather 's next move before she makes it . luke : i would n't worry . i think heather 's done with me . i 'm sure as hell done with her . i 'm not concerned about it . lulu : okay . well , do me a favor and watch your back anyway . luke : always , baby , always . lulu : so , what have you been up to ? anna told me you followed her to switzerland . luke : is that all she told you ? lulu : well , i could n't get much else out of her . i got the feeling that something big went down . luke : yeah , you could say that . lulu : i also thought it was pretty weird that you two did n't come home together . luke : that was not my decision . lulu : so what happened ? luke : oh . where to start ? lulu : the beginning is usually a good place . luke : yeah , okay , well , i would say that the beginning is when anna decided that people come back from the dead . duke : paget was clever . he knew how to cover his tracks . i did n't leave the witness - protection program , anna -- at least not willingly . anna : go on . duke : my enemies discovered me . so much for protection . they did n't want to kill me . they wanted to keep me alive . anna : where ? duke : i was in a turkish prison . i was in solitary confinement for a while . then they moved somebody else in with me . anna : oh , let me guess -- jonathan paget , right ? duke : sharp as always , anna . anna : yeah . remember that . i thought paget and i were in the same situation , so -- we shared our lives , and -- our struggles . anna : you reciprocated stories . duke : i did n't know that paget was a plant . he was working for julian jerome . his job was to learn everything there was to learn about me . anna : enough to convince us he was you . duke : yes . anna : and what would jerome get out of that ? duke : do you even have to ask ? he knew the only thing worse than death for me was to know that you were in the arms of an imposter . and he was right . anna : i wanted so much -- for it to be you . duke : me ! it is me ! why do n't you recognize me ? kiss me . anna , just kiss me . one kiss , and you 'll know exactly who i am . we put a week 's worth of bad odors in a home . anna : you 're not touching me , let alone kissing me , whoever the hell you are . duke : there 's got to be something i can do to prove it to you , anna . there has to be something . anna : no , i do n't know . i ca n't think of anything . i got to give you credit , though . you 've gone to a great deal of trouble to sell your cover . duke : i do n't blame you for feeling this way . anna : that 's generous . duke : i felt this way in my cell so often . that life i was living , it was no existence . i was living in hell . but anytime i ever needed any hope , i -- i only had to picture your face . and i got the will to live from your gorgeous brown eyes -- anna : shut up ! stop it ! duke : and then i 'd think that i 'd do anything i possibly could to get back here to you and to robin . she 's got to be a beautiful young woman . i -- which career did she pick that she dreamt of ? she must be a dancer or a detective . let me see her . if she sees me , she 'll recognize me immediately , anna . anna : you ca n't see her . she 's -- she 's dead . just like you are . like duke is dead . luke : well , there was a young woman there who had been transferred from ferncliff who looked enough like robin at a glance that she could have been mistaken for her . lulu : i mean , you do n't think it 's possible that heather made an honest mistake ? luke : come on , baby . heather does n't do anything honestly , even make a mistake . no , i think she saw a chance to torture anna , and she jumped at it . lulu : mm . i ca n't imagine how brutal that must have been . luke : it was . false hope -- and desperation and grief and then finally the despair of knowing that robin really was gone . lulu : it 's like having a child taken away from its mother all over again . luke : yeah . sam : you remember how i told you i thought something was going on with todd ? his interest in the baby , him showing up at the funeral -- it was just all so weird . jason : well , now we know why . sam : i do n't , jason . i do n't get how todd is involved in this at all . and he was in the woods that night , too ? doing what ? jason : delivering a baby . todd : have you been smoking marijuana ? 'cause that 's illegal . sam 's kid is dead . mcbain : the night of the storm , sam 's baby was n't the only one born out on route 59 . you delivered the other one . sam : wait . i met this person , téa -- in the hospital after she had her little boy . i almost held him , but todd interrupted us . the baby was mine . i 'm sorry , jason . i 'm sorry . i know i 'm getting ahead of you . jason : it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . téa was in labor , and todd was trying to get her to the hospital , but he could n't 'cause the road was closed , but the baby was n't gon na wait , so todd set them up at a bus stop not far from where you collapsed . sam : téa had her baby at a bus stop ? jason : when the baby was born -- they knew right away something was wrong . mcbain : you took that child , and you went looking for help . you saw a light , and it led you to a deserted shed . right so far ? todd : mm - hmm . so what ? jason : when téa got to the hospital , she told steve webber that a good samaritan saved her son . sam : and that good samaritan was heather webber . mcbain : that was sam 's baby . todd : that 's an interesting story . mcbain : you denying it ? todd : no . heather : you should see the way he looks up at me and smiles . it 's as if i hung the moon . the relationship i never got to have with you . steve : maybe because you sold me to other parents . heather : mistakes were made . i readily admit that . steve : then let 's stop this before you make another one . heather : i want to show you what a good mother i could be . steve : with someone else 's child ? heather : how loving and nurturing . and we could be one happy family . steve : we 're not family ! us and that baby -- we 're not related to him , mother . heather : do n't you think adopted children deserve love , too ? steve : you did n't adopt him . you kidnapped him . heather : those are harsh words . steve : can you think of another one ? heather : i rescued him . he 's gon na be so much better off with me than his birth mother . besides , she has other kids -- a kid -- a daughter . téa delgado will be just fine . steve : the baby is n't téa 's . the child you took was sam morgan 's . and all this time , she thought her son was dead . heather : she did n't deserve him then , and she does n't deserve him now . steve : you have to give him back . heather : never . sam : forget giving my child to someone else . heather made me think that my son was dead . jason : heather 's gon na answer for everything that she did to you . i 'm gon na make sure of that . sam : i 've been too scared to say it out loud . [ sniffles ] he 's not dead . jason : no . sam : he 's alive , jason . how did you do this ? when did you find out ? jason : do you remember when we were in the hospital and you told me about the story about how things -- would have played out if your baby had n't died ? sam : yes , of course . it 's all i could think about . jason : yeah , i could n't -- i could n't stand listening to you blame yourself . sam : i remember then you asked patrick to do the autopsy report . jason : right . and it confirmed -- after looking at it , it confirmed a baby died from respiratory failure , and -- and i just -- i just kept studying the facts . sam : w - why , jason ? what were you looking for ? jason : i do n't know . i mean , anything . and your son was taken from you . and i wanted you to get him back . and if there was even a chance -- to make this right again -- i was gon na find it . the baby who died -- blood type did n't match yours or franco 's . sam : well , that just could have been an overlook . i mean , there 's mistakes made all the time . jason : i know , but there was a lot of things that did n't add up . the baby who died had hemophilia . and it never showed up on any of your baby 's prenatal scans . and then when your baby was born , you said he was crying loudly , and he was strong , and how could he if his lungs had n't been developed ? sam : i know , i know . i did n't know , jason . i thought he was sick . i just -- i thought something was wrong . jason : sam , nothing -- nothing was wrong -- with your baby . it was another child who died . sam : why did n't you say anything ? jason : i just -- you know , i did n't want to get your hopes until i was sure . sam : you 're sure now ? jason : i had a dna test run on téa delgado 's son . sam : she just let you do it ? jason : she did n't know about it . sam : how 'd you get the sample ? jason : john mcbain did it . todd : yes , i helped téa deliver the baby . yes , the baby was sick . yes , i did try and get someone to help . todd : someone being heather webber . todd : yes . mcbain : did it ever occur to you to tell someone that she was the nutjob you met in the woods ? ! todd : no , she did n't want me to . look , this is , like i said , a very interesting story . but if you think there was some kind of a baby switch , then you 're crazier than heather webber . mcbain : stop talking ! i have the proof . steve : that baby belongs with sam . heather : why ? steve : is that an actual question ? ! heather : yes . why does she deserve a reunion with her son and i 'm denied a reunion with mine ? steve : mother , mother -- heather : no , really . obviously , you 've been brainwashed against me . there 's no hope of a reconciliation . fine . the little one and i will soldier on alone . steve : wait , wait , wait , wait ! i do n't want you to disappear -- out of my life -- again . and you 're right . just seeing you -- holding what i thought was a baby -- maybe we can make this work . heather : you really mean that ? steve : sam 's already buried a baby . she 's mourned the loss . she 's moved on . and for us -- maybe this is our answer . heather : our future . steve : our chance at the family that we never had . [ stammers ] please , just take me to him . dante : you know , mom , maybe this is n't the best -- olivia : shh ! shh ! dante : i do n't want you pushing yourself . olivia : would you just zip it ? i 'm trying to concentrate . okay , okay . there it is . there it is . dante : what ? you actually see something ? is it heather ? olivia : it 's you and lulu . lulu : well , i am glad that you were there for anna , facing that kind of disappointment . luke : yeah , she needed a friend . lulu : is that what you are to her -- a friend ? luke : we got closer . a lot closer . and then , suddenly , we could n't have been further apart . lulu : guess that explains why you two came home separately . if you do n't want to talk about it , we do n't have to -- luke : no , it 's no problem . i told her that i had lied to robert . lulu : dad , i 'm proud of you . luke : i 'm glad somebody is . lulu : was it that bad ? luke : anna did n't exactly take it well . no . anna : i lost her in an explosion . duke : my god . anna : like the one that killed duke . or at least i thought killed him . duke : anna , please , why do n't you talk to me ? anna : no , i wo n't ! 'cause he came back -- as jonathan paget . oh , that 's must be why i thought it was possible -- duke : you thought what was possible ? anna : that robin -- that -- i believed she was alive . i thought she was in some swiss clinic , and -- i went there to see if -- she was there . duke : and she was n't ? anna : no . duke : i 'm sorry , anna . i 'm so sorry for all of it . i loved robin as if she was my own . you know that . anna : no , i do n't know that ! i do n't know anything about you ! turn around . duke : what is this ? anna : you think i 'm gon na let you get away with this ? i have a responsibility to the citizens of this city . duke : what laws have i broken ? anna : breaking and entering and fraud . just doing my job . duke : [ chuckles ] you owned me from the first moment that we met . i lost my heart that night , and i do n't think there 's much chance i 'll ever get it back . and a love like that is pretty rare . anna : you ca n't know that . duke : i lost my heart that night . i do n't think there 's much chance i 'll ever get it back again . you know , love like that -- is going to last a lifetime . do you want to put the doggy inside ? dante : you had a vision about me and lulu ? olivia : it was so adorable ! the little teeny - weeny little fingers and toes . dante : what the hell are you talking about ? olivia : a baby . dante : the one that heather kidnapped ? olivia : no , a baby with you and lulu , together . mm . what ? you ca n't blame me for a little bit of wishful hallucinating . i know i 'm a little bit young , but i 'm champing at the bit to be a grandma . dante : no kidding . the last vision you had of lulu , she was nine months pregnant . olivia : i 'm sorry , honey . i 'm sorry i ca n't help you out with this thing with heather . dante : yeah , whatever . just let me know if anything pops up . olivia : you mean in my head ? dante : yeah . yeah , i 'll take any lead i can get . olivia : okay . you be careful , okay ? dante : that goes double for you . olivia : okay . and keep me in the loop . dante : okay . i will . and , dante -- dante : huh ? olivia : one thing i know for sure -- you and lulu are gon na make the most adorable parents ! luke : yes , anna was really pissed that i had lied . lulu : do n't tell me that surprises you . luke : well , i think , in the end , she understood why . lulu : so she 's okay with it ? luke : oh , i would n't go that far . she insisted i track down robert and come clean with him . lulu : so that 's where you were . uh -- um -- did you find him ? luke : yeah , i found him . he and holly were still trying to track down ethan . i told him the whole story . lulu : bet that went over well . luke : blows were exchanged . it could have gotten a lot worse if holly had n't stopped it from turning into full - out warfare . lulu : yeah , but she lied to robert , too , so was n't he upset with her ? luke : well , that 's between them to figure out . lulu : so , i , um -- i do n't suppose you saw ethan while you were there . luke : oh , sure . i sure did . i found him in budapest . he 's still tapping in to my swiss bank accounts . lulu : how is he ? luke : he 's having the time of his life playing the cat - and - mouse game . lulu : do you think he could come home ? because , i mean , helena must know by now that he 's your son . luke : i 'm sure she does . lulu : so if she has n't done anything already , then that would mean that he 's safe . well , i 'm sure she 's off to other games at the moment , but -- lulu : i miss him . luke : so do i . so tell me about anna . lulu : well , she 's crazy busy at the pcpd . i mean , we do n't talk about anything too personal . luke : no , that 's for me to do . good to see you . lulu : good to see you . luke : i love you . lulu : um , dad -- luke : yeah ? lulu : you knew that this whole ethan / robert thing was gon na blow up in your face , but for what it 's worth , i hope -- that anna forgives you and you two are able to move forward . luke : so do i , baby . so do i . anna : that 's not possible . duke : anything 's possible , anna . did n't we say that so many times ? i remember everything . i remember every toast . i remember every kiss . i remember every tear that you shed every time i did something to upset you . you got to remember , too . to you . anna : to us . duke : yeah . i like the sound of that . to us . why do n't you listen to me ? anna : because they 're all lies ! that 's why ! they 're lies ! every single secret , i can just tear apart ! this thing in l'orleans is the last betrayal , duke . i 'm not standing for any more of them . none of them . do you understand ? oh , i just do n't know you anymore . just do n't know you anymore ! duke : anna , those memories sustained me . those memories gave me hope . they gave me courage to fight my way back so that i could come back here and be with you . anna : do n't do this , please . duke : because i missed you , anna . i missed my life . i missed my wife . and i fought . and i escaped . and here i am . i 'm back for you , anna . heather : you have no idea how happy you 've made me . the three of us , a family ? that 's all i 've ever dreamed of . steve : then let 's make it a reality . let 's go get that little brother of mine . heather : you 're gon na love him as much as i do . i know you will . just let me go freshen up , okay ?

jason : well , i went to him when i realized that your son had to be with téa . and i explained everything to mcbain , and he agreed to help , but , like me , he did n't want to say anything until we knew -- for sure . sam : is that -- ? jason : it 's -- it 's the proof right there . your son is alive . sam : i do n't even know what to say . i mean , the fact that you did this for me , i just -- jason : all that matters is that your baby 's out there . sam : i need to see him , jason . i need to see him . i need to hold him . jason : sam , sam , sam . where are you going ? sam : where do you think i 'm going ? i 'm going to llanview to téa delgado 's house . jason : you ca n't . sam : why not ? jason : because things are complicated right now . sam : i understand that . i 'm not gon na go and just snatch the baby . jason : your baby 's not at tea 's house . sam : what ? why ? where is he ? jason : we do n't know . dante : hey . lulu : hey . any progress on heather or joe scully jr. ? dante : we have units everywhere , people calling in tips , and still nothing . dante : got so desperate , i asked my mother for help . lulu : help how ?

[ scene_break ] rafe : i 'm telling you , molly was grilling me about us . and she did n't seem too psyched when i told her we were a thing . taylor : nice ! tj had a lot of questions , too . rafe : he did ? taylor : yes . i 'm telling you , people are so predictable sometimes . we finally `` move on . `` they do n't like it . always want what you ca n't have , right ? rafe : kind of seems that way , yeah . taylor : kind of ? ! they are totally jealous ! and take it from me . jealousy works every time .

'cause if she can overlook my true nature , then she 's probably doing the same with you . or maybe -- maybe she ca n't find the good in you because maybe there 's no good in you to begin with . sonny : shut up , franco . franco : at least i can blame the tumor . all you have to blame is your -- your temper and the sweet nothings that ava whispered in your ear right after she -- that 's all you got ? sonny : [ grunting ] shawn : sonny ? you all right , man ? sonny : yeah , fine . any news on ava ? shawn : unfortunately , no . i mean , jordan 's still stonewalling me as much as she possibly can . jordan : okay , would you just relax , okay ? i gave ava the medication . there 's nothing to worry about . rosalie : i have to tell you what 's been going on with your brother michael and kiki . you see , it 's -- it 's all because of my boss . mrs. clay is nothing like -- ava : morgan ! help . rosalie : oh , my god . who is that ? ava : i need help . morgan : it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's okay . [ cell phone rings ] jordan : oh , give it a rest , nurse santiago . geez . anna : oh , this is such a good idea . this is great . duke : yeah , i 'm surprised that i was able to get you away from your desk . you 've been working night and day . anna : i 've been swamped . we all have . i have n't been able to spend as much time with you as i wanted to . it 's really good . duke : quality time . [ both chuckle ] anna : this is nice -- a little lunch date , just the two of us . lucy : oh . hi . i am so sorry i 'm late . i do n't know why i 'm always late , but i 'm always late . hello . hi . bobbie : hello , my darling . carly : hi . so , to what do i owe this surprise ? bobbie : well , i 'm having lunch with scott . carly : oh . bobbie : i do n't suppose you 'd like to join us ? carly : oh , come on . you know me and scott ... bobbie : yeah , i know , but i really could use the moral support . i 'm worried that i 'll crack . carly : why ? what 's going on ? bobbie : well , i mean , i just feel so guilty , you know ? scott and i just made it official , and already , i 'm lying to him ... about how you cheated on his son . franco : you should feel guilty . scott : hey . what 's got you ticked off now ? nina : rosalie , please call me back . i need to talk to you . call me as soon as you get this , please . i think silas is on to me . sam : silas ? is everything okay ? what 's the matter ? did you get danny 's blood work back ? silas : no , but i 'll have them for you soon . sam : okay . well , then why are you calling ? silas : sam , i think you might have been right about nina . sam : what do you mean ? right about what ? silas : about how much she needed that wheelchair . nina : si has been asking me all these questions about how long i 've been able to walk and how long you knew , and , you know , if i had been hiding it -- you know , the walking -- longer than i said . so , we need to talk . we need to make sure our stories track . please call me . it does n't matter where you are . i 'll come to you . morgan : it 's okay . it 's okay . ava : [ groans ] morgan : i got you . nina : kiki 's mom -- i have to work on her . she 's disappeared . that baby is gon na pop any time . rosalie : i think i just found her . franco : i was just facetiming with josslyn . scott : josslyn ? she -- is n't she kind of young to have that , uh , tone with ? franco : well , let 's just say she had less than an enthusiastic reaction to the news of my engagement to her mother . scott : well , let me give you a piece of advice here . you know , i raised a little girl by myself , and , uh , you know , you catch more flies with honey . they think they 've got you wrapped around their finger , but , really , it 's the opposite . you get them to do what you want them to do . franco : oh . honey . scott : honey . franco : you do n't say . i 'll keep that in mind . what are you doing here , pops ? bobbie does n't work here anymore . scott : no , but you do . i 'm taking bobbie to lunch . i want you to join us . franco : well , thank you . but i 'd rather swallow glass . scott : oh , wait . hold on a second . what -- you 've got a problem with bobbie ? franco : you should have a problem with bobbie . you chose the wrong woman , dad . anna : it 's lovely that you could join us . lucy : oh , it -- it is . thank you . i - i just think it 's so kind of duke to ask me to join you . thank you so much . i know the reason you probably -- picture . you know what ? you two just look so darn dashing , i 've got to capture the moment in a picture . i 'm gon na take your picture . anna : please do n't . duke : she sounded so distraught on the telephone . i did n't know what else to do . anna : you invited her to a private lunch . duke : i thought it would be a way to take her mind off scott and maybe give her an outlet . lucy : wait a minute . okay . let 's do -- [ sighs ] bobbie . carly : i am so sorry that i had to drag you into this , all right ? but you were my only hope . can you ever forgive me ? bobbie : only if you swear that this is all in the past -- that you and sonny have been put to bed ... so to speak . sonny : jordan 's not one of my favorite people . she interfered when she should n't have . she stopped you from going after ava . shawn : yeah . sonny : but you know what ? she did tell you that the shooter was going after michael . so i owe you , and i owe her for keeping him safe . shawn : yeah , well , i still ca n't figure out why she would cross the lines to protect your son . sonny : there 's a lot about the jeromes that i 'm questioning lately . shawn : what do you mean ? sonny : well , sam told me a little while back that she thinks luke is working with them . shawn : luke spencer working with the jeromes ? sonny : i know it sounds crazy . but i 'll tell you what -- i told her to stay in the loop and figure out what 's going on . alexis : hi . i 'm alexis davis . i have an appointment with dr. morrucci to see if he 'll consult as an expert witness . uh , he did mention that he might be running late . julian : if you 'll excuse us ... alexis : you can be excused . i have business here . julian : this 'll only take a moment , unless you want to make a scene . alexis : i 'll be right back . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : what the hell are you doing ? julian : i have to talk to you . alexis : no , you do n't . we discussed this last night . i 'm done . we 're done . julian : if you would just let me explain . the situation is much more complicated than -- alexis : tell me more lies ? no , thank you . you have lied to me enough to last me a lifetime , so stop calling , stop texting , and spare me the tedium of deleting any communication from you . julian : what -- you think i 'm gon na make it that easy for you ? alexis : apparently not . you 're here . how did you know where i was , anyway ? julian : well , i followed you . alexis : you 're stalking me ? julian : if that 's what it takes . alexis : i guess i do n't have to point out that stalking is a criminal offense because you 're a mobster , and criminal offenses are what you do . julian : you know , it does n't have to be like this . alexis : no , it does n't , and if you had followed me last night , you would have seen that i was having a lovely time with ned . he 's the man i 'm seeing ... not you . sam : i 'm sorry . what ? silas : nina was walking last night . running would be more accurate . sam : running ? silas : she was chasing after franco at the hospital . i saw her . she did n't expect to see me . i could tell she did n't want me to know . sam : i - i really do n't know what to say . silas : you do n't have to say anything , sam . why do n't you let me say it , okay ? sam : okay . silas : nina told me she was only able to walk for about three weeks . i 'm starting to think it 's been a lot longer than that . nina : i know you 're upset with me . i know you are . i was pushing you to go after michael . i was n't concerned about your needs . i 'm so sorry . i just did n't think that you would be so shaken up by a lone gunman . come on . but i - i really would love to talk . we could talk about this . rosie , i need you . please . i need you . you 've been such a good friend to me -- such a great , great friend . and my list , all my plans . rosie , i ca n't -- i ca n't do any of this without you . morgan : ava , we have -- we have to go to the hospital . ava : no ! i ca n't . morgan : i - i - i know it 's dangerous , but it 's -- we do n't have a choice . ava : aah ! [ sighs ] sonny will see us . morgan : you know what ? if we do n't go , the baby could be hurt . you could be hurt , okay ? this is a risk that we have to take . nina : rosalie , i need you . please ? i really need you . let me tell you something . if appealing to your humanity does n't work , i 'm just gon na have to let the world know about your dirty little secret . that 's right . let 's see what your friend morgan thinks about you when he finds out everything that you 've been keeping from him . ava : i 'm not going to the hospital . aah ! morgan : you 're a nurse , right ? can you help her ? rosalie : i do n't know what 's wrong with her . ava : it 's -- they 're just cr - cramps . it happened before . i went to the hospital . they said it was nothing . it 's n - no big deal . i just -- i need my pills . that 's -- morgan : okay , but you 're really hurting , and maybe a doctor can help you out . ava : morgan , i do n't need a hospital . i do n't need a nurse . i just need the pills . sonny : this whole luke thing is another reason to get ava back so i can question her about any ties between julian and luke . shawn : you think she 'll tell you ? sonny : well , you know what ? you ask somebody enough , eventually , they 're gon na slip . but the thing is ... luke 's an old friend , and before i go after him , i need proof . shawn : is that why you 're pushing yourself so hard ? because of luke ? or because of carly ? carly : sonny and i are done . bobbie : more or less done than after the first time you got married ... or the second or the third or the fourth ? carly : that is not fair . bobbie : more or less done than when you cheated on jax with sonny ? carly : that was an emotional time , mom . come on . bobbie : it 's always an emotional time between you and sonny . carly : okay , well , not anymore . bobbie : okay , so , are you telling me that , from the moment franco proposed to you , absolutely nothing else happened between you and sonny ? carly : okay , well , there was this one unfortunate slip . bobbie : carly . [ sighs ] duke : uh , why do n't we go somewhere else ? anna : i do n't want to -- lucy : no . no , no , no . oh , pooh . we 're all adults -- at least , you two are . and , besides , i really -- i really want to take your picture . duke : i do n't think you need to put yourself through this . lucy : i am going to take a picture . get closer , please . i 'm taking a pic -- oh . oh , look at you . good . good . no , here . anna : you 'll have to excuse me . there 's a suspect that i need to talk to . lucy : come on . come back . anna : my eyes were closed ? lucy : yes . oh , i got it . duke : why do n't we take a look ? franco : lucy 's been in my corner since day one . bobbie -- not so much . lucy was always encouraging you to have a relationship with me . bobbie , on the other hand -- when heather went cuckoo for cocoa puffs and kidnapped carly , bobbie was the first one in line with a pitchfork . scott : okay . i chose bobbie . i want to be with bobbie . i 'm sorry you have misgivings towards her , but i will buy you a t - bone if you show up at the metro court for lunch . franco : i 'm not someone who changes his mind . scott : let me give you another piece of advice here , okay ? uh , you are gon na marry carly . that makes bobbie your mother - in - law . so , you should try and get along with her if you want to have a happy marriage . carly and bobbie were on the outs , but now they 're thick as thieves . i 'll see you . franco : yeah , thick as thieves . nina : there you are . franco : what ? nina : why is no one returning my phone calls ? franco : what are you doing standing up ? someone could see you . silas could see you . nina : he already has . sam : silas , i really do n't think that i should be the one that you 're talking to about nina . you know how i feel about her , and i do n't want to put any more doubts into your head . silas : they 're already there , sam . i keep replaying how i felt compelled to defend her the night we ended things . i was cruel . i was blind . and i realize now you were the one that was seeing things clearly . i just wanted you to know . sam : thank you . silas : that night , you asked me if i thought nina was exaggerating her condition in order to manipulate me . what if she 's been able to walk all along , sam ... and she just made up that story when i caught her ? sam : i do n't know . you know , it was just sort of a gut feeling i had . i could have been wildly off -- off base . except there 's ... silas : except what ? sam : i never got a chance to tell you . i was able to screen the , um -- the security footage from our conversation on the roof at the hospital , and there was definitely someone eavesdropping behind the door . silas : and you think that person was nina . julian : [ scoffing ] please . you 're not interested in ned ashton . you 're doing this to get back at me . alexis : you are a narcissist , are n't you ? you know what ? ned understands me in a way that you apparently will never be able to do . because ned has been with me through the best of times and the worst of times , and even when we hurt each other , even when we failed each other , we stayed connected . julian : and yet he was n't even an afterthought when you and i found each other again . alexis : ned is unique in my life . you are a type . julian : you do n't really mean that . alexis : oh , but i do . you see , i have a weakness for arrogant , deceitful , destructive men . my father was one , my brothers were two and three . then there was sonny corinthos and ric lansing and jerry jacks . and you , julian jerome , are just one in a long line of very bad choices , but guess what . i do n't have to choose you anymore . silas : why did n't you tell me what you saw on the security footage ? sam : i wanted to . i went to your apartment that night , and i - i knocked on your door . and i know i should n't have . i - i opened it , and i know i should n't have done that . silas : that was the night you walked in on nina and me . sam : yeah . silas : i still do n't even know how that happened . it 's just one of -- one of a lot of things that i 've had questions about . you and i had just ended things , and i was hurt . it just does n't make a lot of sense . but that does n't change the fact that i hurt you . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , sam . i 'm sorry for so many things . i know you 're on a case right now , and you 're out of town , but i was wondering if maybe when you got back , maybe we could talk about this . maybe there 's some way that i can make it right . maybe there 's some way i can make this up to you . nina : yeah , i had to tell silas something when he saw me running around this hub . franco : well , what were you thinking , running around the hub ? nina : [ scoffs ] what was i thinking ? i was going after you . you were so upset . you ran out of the room after you saw sonny and carly 's private sex show . bobbie : you did it in your own son 's apartment ? carly : i 'm not gon na have this conversation with you if you keep saying `` did it . `` we had sex . and michael was n't home . bobbie : oh , well , then i suppose that makes it perfectly acceptable . carly : i 'm already beating myself up enough about this . i do n't need you to pile it on . bobbie : honey , i 'm sorry . i 'm not trying to make you feel guilty . i just -- i just want you to face reality . i mean , if you 're already cheating on franco , what chance do the two of you possibly ever have to be happy ? carly : i told sonny that it could never happen again . sonny : so , carly insists she 's still gon na marry that freak . shawn : while she 's sneaking around with you ? sonny : well , she has put an end to everything . you know , so she says . shawn : you think she 'll come around ? sonny : do you know how many times carly has said that she does n't want to be anywhere near me , much less ... have sex with me ? you know how many times i 've said the same thing ? i 'll tell you one thing . it 's never over between me and carly . but i do want to end something . shawn : such as ? sonny : franco needs to be taken out once and for all . nina : i was worried about you . you were upset . franco : you thought i was gon na do something crazy . nina : i thought you were gon na do something crazy . franco : i really wanted to . i was on my way , and then i realized i have to save something for my wedding day . bobbie : you have been telling me that you were finished with sonny since before the first time you were married . so what 's different now ? carly : well , there are many reasons why i have to choose franco , and i think i finally got through to sonny . he knows it can not happen again . duke : i thought you were n't eating gluten . lucy : i 'm not . i 've sworn off of it . but gluten has a very calming effect on me , and seeing bobbie spencer over there is exactly the opposite of calming effect on me . duke : you should n't let her get to you like that . i mean , you may be misinterpreting that . like , for all you know , there could be trouble in paradise . it looks to me like bobbie 's pouring out her heart to carly . lucy : you really think so ? duke : well , i do n't see scott over there , do you ? bobbie : i 'm glad sonny came to his senses and accepted it . scott : uh , accepted what ? duke : uh - oh . looks like i spoke too soon . anna : you did n't answer my question . is n't this a little upscale for a heroin dealer ? jordan : alleged heroin dealer , commissioner . are you here to harass me or ... ? anna : i do n't know . i have n't decided . any news on ava jerome ? jordan : yeah , i was able to get her medication to her . anna : so you know where she is ? jordan : no . no , but she used an intermediary , morgan corinthos . anna : so he knows where ava 's hiding ? ava : aah ! it hurts . damn it . rosalie : the cramps come and go , right ? you just have to ride them out . morgan : here . here . have you ever seen a pregnant woman like this , or ... ? rosalie : obstetrics is not really my thing . ava : i 'm fine . [ panting ] morgan : are you sure these are gon na make you feel better ? ava : that 's what the -- nurse santiago said . morgan : all right . ava : [ sighs ] morgan : better ? ava : not yet . just give it a minute to kick in . [ panting ] who 's this ? morgan : just -- ro -- rosalie martinez . she 's just -- she 's a friend . ava : [ continues panting ] friend ? morgan : yeah . rosalie , this is -- this is -- ava : morgan ! rosalie : it 's okay , ms. jerome . i know who you are . you 're , uh , kind of famous , at least in port charles . ava : that 's lovely . well , it 's a pleasure , i 'm sure . now forget you ever saw me . julian : you and i share a daughter , a grandson . alexis : that 's true , and as long as sam wants a relationship with you , i will do nothing to discourage that . but you can make things a lot more comfortable for everyone involved if you will accept the fact that , aside from family , you and i do n't know each other . julian : but we do know each other . how can you act like none of this matters ? alexis : i can . i can focus on something -- someone that 's good for me , someone that makes me smile , someone that appreciates my ethics or remembers that i used to have them . julian : ned ashton -- he ca n't give you what i can . alexis : no , he ca n't . he ca n't give me the terror of coming home and finding that my house has exploded or -- or give me that sick feeling in the pit of my stomach that i 've been duped again . what ned can do is make me laugh . he can order a decent bottle of wine . he can take me danc -- and he 's a wonderful dancer . what ned can do for me is remind me that i am actually capable of enjoying my life . excuse me . sam : make it up to me ? look , that would be very sweet , but , i mean , you do n't have to do that . patrick : hey . so , i scoped out the -- sorry , i did n't know you were on the phone . sam : it 's okay . silas : is that drake ? sam : yeah . silas : it 's okay . i know you two are , uh ... i do n't want to keep you . all right , i just wanted to say ... i do n't know what i wanted to say . sam : you do n't have to hang up . silas : no , it 's okay , sam . i should , um -- i should probably get to work , all right ? just , um ... do me a favor and be safe , okay ? sam : okay . thanks for calling , silas . patrick : is that danny 's blood work ? sam : no , it had nothing to do with danny 's blood work . patrick : is he calling about the case ? sam : he was calling about nina . nina : you 're still going through with the wedding ? franco : all set for halloween . nina : what do you have planned ? franco : nina , the less you know , the better . nina : franco . franco : nina . nina : franco . franco : nina , you just spent two decades in a coma . i ca n't be responsible for you losing your freedom . the last thing i need is an accomplice . nina : an accomplice ? what -- are you gon na hurt someone ? franco : it 's not like i have n't done that before . nina : come on . you 're not -- you 're not really gon na hurt anybody ? franco : obviously , you do n't know me as well as you think you do . scott : what are you two talking about ? what did sonny accept ? carly : my marriage to franco . everyone knows that sonny is not my fiancé 's biggest fan . right , mom ? bobbie : mm . carly : thankfully , sonny came around . shawn : so , you think carly is marrying franco to keep him quiet ? sonny : yeah , i think that 's the real reason -- not that carly will admit it -- because carly says she 's been leaning in to her feelings for franco -- whatever the hell that means . look , however carly feels about franco , it does n't change what he is . the second they get in a fight , something sets him off , he 's gon na go running to michael , and he 's gon na tell him what i did to aj . shawn : i mean , why would n't he ? it 's the easiest way to hurt you and carly both . sonny : ca n't risk that . he 's got to be taken out . the only way to ensure his silence . shawn : not to mention freeing carly up to be with you again . nina : i know you . you 're one of the few people that i feel i 've , um , gotten to know since i 've come to port charles . inside and out -- i know you inside and out . uh , 'cause you -- you would never ruin anyone -- i mean , or hurt them . you would ruin them . you would n't -- you would n't hurt anybody ... franco : here . nina : ... intentionally . you would n't do that . franco : take it . nina : i do n't want to see sonny and carly have sex . franco : no . you google me . okay . forgive me . i - i 've lost my manners . you -- okay , google -- yeah , i 'm not really sure how it works , but you just type my name here in this window , and then you 're about to find out just how wrong you are . shawn : okay , if franco 's in the ground , and the wedding never happens , you 'd be free to pursue carly . sonny : well , that could be a fringe benefit . but the goal is to eliminate the leech so , you know , he can never hurt carly , michael , or anybody else that i love . shawn : like you wanted all along , right ? sonny : right . but here 's the problem -- if carly knew that i had a hand in this , she 'd never speak to me again . shawn : we 'll make it look like an accident . sonny : well , you know what ? i think something cleaner . you know , like , if he -- if he fell in the shower . shawn : [ chuckles ] sonny : okay ? or let 's say he was driving his car , and he went over a cliff , and it was just an accident . but then again , carly -- she 's too smart . she 's gon na know that i had ... shawn : she knows how you eliminate your enemies , right . sonny : so , here 's what i think -- what we need is someone to do the dirty work for us . nina : um , this is ... franco : twisted ? proof of my galloping insanity ? nina : you did these things ? you killed people ? franco : well , if it 's on the internet , it must be true . scott : well , it 's nice to hear that sonny 's not gon na cause any trouble , but somebody , uh , should remind him that people that live in glass houses should n't throw stones . his reputation is not exactly squeaky clean . carly : you 're not seriously comparing anything that sonny has done in his entire life to the crimes that franco committed before his tumor was removed ? scott : franco is a new man . sonny is still a criminal and belongs in a cage . carly : you know what ? ! bobbie : stop . stop . stop . that 's enough sonny talk for one day , okay ? i just want to have a nice lunch with my daughter and my boyfriend . lucy : oh , look at this . this is so sweet . what a lovely sight . you 're having lunch with your daughter and your ... boyfriend . do n't -- please -- let little old me stop you , please . rosalie : i 'm sorry ? ava : did i stutter ? forget ... you ... saw me . you know full well ... who i am and with whom i associate . i need to be sure -- i need to trust that you wo n't tell anybody that you saw me here . if not , i 'll have to make sure you stay silent . morgan : okay , okay . she 's just in a lot of pain . come on . i 'll handle this . come on . come on . all right . rosalie : what was that about ? morgan : she 's in hiding , okay ? people are trying to kill her , so i need you to promise me that you wo n't say anything . anna : do you think morgan 's gon na tip off sonny as to where ava is ? jordan : it 's doubtful . i think that morgan is on the outs with sonny again . anna : well , then we can have him followed to find out where she is . jordan : i do n't think it 's a good idea to know where ava 's location is until we , uh , make our move . has n't sonny flipped people in the pcpd before ? i mean , who 's to say he does n't have anybody on his payroll right now ? anna : yeah . okay . good point . i ca n't be seen to be fraternizing with a criminal . jordan : of course . got to say , this is , uh , better than a park bench . anna : indeed . i 'll just go back to my table . duke : uh , lucy , they 're ready to take our order . lucy : oh , well , that -- that 's okay . i - i just stopped by to say hi . um , hello , carly . carly : hi . lucy : hi , scott . scott : hiya , lucy . lucy : bobbie , you look so nice today . bobbie : thank you , lucy . you , too . lucy : you know , i 've been meaning to ask you about your hair . it 's just so red , you know , and i want to know about your colorist because it just almost seems like maybe , at one time , like , a long , long time ago , you were a natural redhead . bobbie : oh , well , that 's very nice of you to say . and i just want to tell you that i think that 's a lovely dress . i mean , most women of a certain age would find it a little tacky to go sleeveless , but i admire your courage . lucy : thank you . i think you 're the brave one , though . i mean , letting carly near your boyfriend after she slept with tony . wait -- was that your last husband ? carly : well , excuse me . what the hell do you think you 're doing ? bobbie : how is kevin , anyway ? i heard he moved out . gee , your lighthouse is so big . it must get awfully lonely living in there all by yourself . lucy : ohh ! duke : hey ! let 's get back to our table . lucy : i am not finished . i am not finished . duke : let 's not keep anna waiting . come on . scott : well , that ... escalated quickly . morgan : you ca n't tell anyone that ava 's here -- not even your boss . okay ? 'cause i do n't know if you know this , but ava and nina have a rivalry that goes way back . rosalie : yeah , i heard something about it . do n't worry . you can trust me . morgan : can i really , though ? because you told nina about my parents getting back together . rosalie : i 'm sorry . i - i did n't mean to go behind your back . it 's just franco and nina are friends . i thought she would want to know . morgan : okay , can you see why i 'm worried ? rosalie : i promise -- i am done doing anything for nina . i 've realized that my boss only looks out for one person -- herself . nina : so you 're a serial killer ? franco : reformed serial killer ... supposedly . nina : it said on the internet that you had a brain tumor and you were n't responsible for what you did . and you got that tumor taken out , right ? so you 're a different person . franco : you know what ? i take back what i said before . you ca n't believe everything you read on the internet . [ keys jingling ] silas : how 'd it break ? nina : and i went to grab it and stand , and that 's when i fell . nina : no , no , i got -- shh ! just ... [ grunts ] [ sighs ] ta - da . silas : [ sighs ] patrick : so , silas thinks that nina has been able to walk this whole time ? what -- did he call you to tell you that you were right all along ? sam : not in so many words , but he knows that i was n't paranoid to have doubts about her now that he has doubts of his own , but ... patrick : but what ? sam : i think he was looking for something else . patrick : like what ? sam : i do n't know . maybe absolution or ... patrick : or if there was a chance for you two . sam : yeah . maybe . patrick : i mean , what if you 're right ? what are you gon na tell silas ? is there a chance for you two ? sam : well , it -- it does n't really matter if i want to give silas another chance or not . anyway , i do n't think he was looking for that . i mean , after all , he 's still -- he -- he is married . patrick : that 's not an answer , sam . i do n't think that silas would call you if he did n't think that there was hope for you two . and let 's be honest -- if nina 's been lying this whole time , they 're not gon na be married for too much longer . sam : come on . that 's a lot to assume . patrick : [ sighs ] sam : [ sighs ] anyway ... i should probably get dressed if we 're gon na make , uh , this rendezvous with luke on time . silas : nina . i thought you were visiting your brother . what are you doing here ? nina : if appealing to your humanity does n't work , i 'm just gon na have to let the world know about your dirty little secret . let 's see what your friend morgan thinks about you when he finds out everything that you 've been keeping from him . morgan : are you feeling any better ? ava : no . i do n't know why the pill 's taking so long to kick in . [ exhales sharply ] morgan : okay , well , it says you can take another one if needed . ava : yeah . i suppose it ca n't hurt , right ? morgan : right . jordan : [ sighs ] lucy : i do not know why i continue to let bobbie spencer push all my buttons . i 'd like to push her really hard off a giant parapet . anna : oh , lucy , i realize this is just hyperbole , but , really , you do n't want to be discussing murder in front of the police commissioner . duke : well , lucy 's only just venting . anna : mm . duke : are n't you , lucy ? lucy : yes , i am . no , i 'm not . i do n't -- i do n't know what i 'm doing . i do n't know why i keep doing this . i really do want to kill them . i ca n't keep doing this and running into them everywhere . i ca n't do it . so , okay , this is what i 'm gon na do . [ inhales deeply ] i 'm leaving town . i 'm gon na move out . but where would i go ? i -- no one would take me in . aunt charlene . i 'm gon na move in with aunt charlene . she lives in a lovely old - persons ' condo in fort lauderdale . it 's a retirement community , but i could live there . i could do bridge and shuffleboard , and i - i hate bridge , and i hate shuffleboard . i do n't even know how to play them . duke : you 're not going anywhere except home , and i am going to drive you . anna : we did n't order . duke : i know . sorry , darling . i ca n't let lucy embarrass herself again . so i 'm gon na get her out of here . i 'll see you later . anna : do you really have ... bobbie : well , with that out of the way , this 'll be nice -- just the three of us for lunch . carly : mm . scott : well , i - i did invite franco . carly : really ? scott : i do n't know if he 's gon na make it or not , though . bobbie : oh , why not ? franco : i , uh -- i had a class to teach . but i hope that there 's still room for me . sonny : there 's a long list of people with motive to kill franco . we just have to find someone to pin it on . carly : this is a nice surprise . franco : oh . carly : what about your class ? franco : uh , i rearranged my schedule . there should n't be anything in my life more important than family , right ? and it 'll give us a chance to make some wedding plans . i want everything to be perfect on my bride 's special day . [ next_on ] lulu : hey , what 's wrong ? maxie : nathan . nathan : ( to dante ) it did n't work . not even close . sam : ( to patrick ) nina still managed to destroy my relationship . nina : ( to silas ) i want you now , and i 'm not taking no for an answer . elizabeth : ( to jason ) there might be another way to find out who you are .

[ scene_break ] [ hayden 's flashback ] nikolas : i am asking you to let this go . forget what elizabeth said to you . forget this theory that i tried to have hayden killed . and forget that jake is jason . [ back to present ] nikolas : penny for your thoughts ? hayden : i 'm just , uh , looking forward to today . i 've got big plans for you . [ scene_break ] julian : olivia . olivia : julian . julian : hey . olivia : what are you doing here ? julian : uh , well , you know , ava has her daughter now , so she wanted the place to herself . so i 'm back . nothing like hotel living , right ? olivia : well , you let me know if you need anything . julian : yeah , olivia , just , uh , one little question here . whose , um , whose baby is that ? [ scene_break ] lulu : just tell me ! why is dillon so mad at me ? maxie : for god 's sakes , he 's not mad at you ! he 's in love with you ! what ? ! lulu : no , that is crazy ! maxie : yeah ? so was dillon 's diva fit , but that happened . lulu : [ scoffs ] what dillon and i had , it was way in the past , not to mention a colossal mistake . maxie : guess dillon does n't think so . lulu : we have been working together this entire time . nothing has happened between us . maxie : that 's because in addition to being in love with you -- lulu : oh ! god , please , stop saying that . oh ! maxie : dillon also respects you . but trust me , lulu , it 's true . lulu : [ sighs ] look , if i had no idea about these feelings dillon has , how can you be so sure ? maxie : because he told me . [ scene_break ] dante : uh , we have to talk . valerie : okay , if this is about the jelly doughnut -- dante : this is not about the damn doughnut . valerie : dante , what 's wrong with you ? dante : when were you gon na tell me about this ? valerie : a pregnancy test ? dante : i mean , there 's only one reason why you 'd have this , right ? 'cause you think you 're pregnant . valerie : wait , where did you get that ? dante : when were you gon na tell me about this ? valerie : i was n't , because there 's nothing to tell you about . dante : so , you 're saying the baby 's dillon 's ? valerie : no , i 'm not saying it 's dillon 's . nathan : dillon . what are you doing at the station ? you having problems with your movie ? dillon : no . no problems . i should probably be getting back . nathan : uh - huh . dante : if the baby 's not dillon 's , then it 's mine ? valerie : there is no baby , damn it ! i 'm not pregnant ! [ scene_break ] olivia : whose baby is this ? julian : yeah . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . it 's probably none of my business . olivia : well , then we understand each other . julian : it 's just kind of startling to see you holding a baby . it just kind of feels like it 's little leo or something , you know ? olivia : but you know that 's not possible , right ? julian : yeah , no , of course . just wishful thinking . [ baby whines ] olivia : oh , it 's okay . julian : you 're probably just babysitting this little guy for a friend , huh ? olivia : oh , poor thing . julian : all right , so who do you know that recently had a baby ? olivia : no one . the baby i 'm holding is mine . [ scene_break ] nikolas : what kind of plans do you have in mind ? hayden : i just want to do something special for you . nikolas : you do n't have to do anything for me . hayden : oh , yes , but i do . you were kind enough to take me in when i had nowhere else to go , and i just want to find some way to pay you back . although i do need you to give me something . nikolas : a - ha ! so this gift comes with a catch , i see . hayden : oh , a tiny one . you see , there 's nothing in my closet for what i have in mind . nikolas : which is ? hayden : something 's happening between us . nikolas : hmm . is that what you think ? hayden : if you do n't believe me , ask your mother . she interrupted us . nikolas : kissing . so ? hayden : and if she came in 10 seconds later , she would have seen a lot more . nikolas : you 're probably right . hayden : i 'm feeling restless . i just feel like we should go out , have an amazing dinner , maybe a little dancing and ... see where the evening takes us . nikolas : so you 're asking me out on a date ? hayden : well , i 'd wait for you to ask me ... nikolas : you sure you 're ready for social activities and ... hayden : i need to start living my life . so what do you say ? we go to town and you buy me a hot , new outfit . we 'll make a day of it . and then maybe we 'll make a night of it . because ... i want to get you all to myself . [ scene_break ] sam : after the whole fiasco with hayden , i assumed you had pretty much given up on finding out who you really are . jason : yeah , well [ clears throat ] i need to know who i am , not just for me , but for elizabeth , too . sam : elizabeth ? [ chuckles ] i do n't know . something tells me she would be pretty happy spending the rest of her life as mr. and mrs. jake doe . jason : yeah . maybe . but , uh ... i talked to laura yesterday , and she really drove it home that it would n't be right for me to get married if i might have a wife or a child waiting for me somewhere , so ... sam : i just -- you know , it 's been over a year . if someone were looking for you -- jason : they 'd have found me ? sam : yeah . jason : maybe , maybe not . i mean , the new face and all , right ? look , i can live with the uncertainty , but my wife should n't have to . and laura made a suggestion . she said that it would be a gift to be able to tell elizabeth who i really am on our wedding day . [ scene_break ] laura : so ... you 're getting married . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] how could you tell ? laura : yeah . i ran into jake at wyndemere , and he sort of broke the news about your engagement . elizabeth : yeah , well , we 're both very excited . laura : so i see . you know , i hate to say this to you i really do . but as someone who cares about you , i think you 're making a terrible mistake . [ scene_break ] lulu : oh , this is a disaster ! maxie : look , i - i guess when you were on your adventure in british columbia , dillon realized you had shed all of your worst qualities while still retaining your best ones . and now he 's shooting a movie on your boat , where he gets to work with you every day and reenact a romanticized version of your relationship with him . honestly , it is -- it 's a wonder that dillon managed to keep it together this long . lulu : i get it , maxie . i get it . maxie : do n't worry , okay ? it 's not your fault . but it does put you in a really , really awkward position . i - i had your back . lulu : wh -- `` had `` ? what changed ? maxie : no , have . i have your back , especially when it comes to dillon . i told him that you 're in a committed marriage and you love dante . i am right about that , are n't i ? dillon : maxie , can i speak to lulu alone ? maxie : i do n't think that 's such a good idea . lulu : it 's okay , maxie . it 's okay . maxie : uh , um -- dillon : um , first , i - i wanted to apologize about what happened earlier . i have no excuse . the only explanation i can offer you is that i have been under a lot , a lot of pressure dealing with the scheduling and -- and with the budgets . i 'm so sorry , lulu . i - i do n't know why i yelled at you like that . lulu : i do . dillon : well , i appreciate you understanding , especially considering that what i have to tell you is n't easy . and i have been wrestling with whether or not i should -- i should tell you . [ sighs ] but i - i finally decided i think it 's best to get everything out in the open . and , lulu , there is something you need to know . lulu : it 's okay , dillon . i already do . [ scene_break ] dante : wait , this is n't yours ? valerie : no ! why would you even think it was ? dante : because nathan said he saw you at kelly 's , and you left that behind in a bag . valerie : that was n't my bag . i 'll have to congratulate nathan on his great detective work . dante : [ sighs ] valerie : maybe he can use his fine sleuthing skills to figure out who took my candy . dante : candy ? valerie : yeah , of course , the person who actually bought this test could probably use the sugar rush more than i can . i can only imagine that they got my candy and i got this box . dante : i 'm -- i 'm -- [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry . valerie : yeah , so am i . sorry that you pounced on me the minute i walked in the door , accused me of being pregnant , and demanded to know why i did n't tell you ? who the hell do you think you are ? ! [ scene_break ] elizabeth : laura , have you told jason the truth ? does he know who he is ? laura : no , i have n't . elizabeth : [ sighs ] thank you . laura : but are you listening to yourself ? how long do you think you 're gon na be able to go on lying to this man that you say you love ? elizabeth : can we please not have this conversation again ? laura : i - i would love not to have this conversation again . believe me . i would . but that would mean you reversing your course and doing the right thing . elizabeth : i know you think i 'm an awful person . laura : no , i do n't think you 're an awful person . i think you 're a woman who wants someone who you could never have . and now that you 're so close to getting what you 've always dreamed of , it 's clouding your judgment . elizabeth : i 've tried to explain all of this to you . of course , i feel guilty about keeping the secret from jason , but -- laura : which one ? which secret ? the truth about his identity ? the fact that he has a wife and two kids ? the fact that he is a quartermaine ? elizabeth : all right , all of it , okay ? i get it ! i get it . but have you thought about what would happen if the truth were to come out now ? everyone would be devastated . patrick and sam would be over . the family they 've created with little danny and -- and emma would be done . and what about jason ? he 's happy with who he is now . he wants to settle down with me and create a family . laura : well , you 're right . if the truth came out now , it would be devastating for everyone . elizabeth : yes ! thank you . laura : but what if it comes out later ? what if jason simply remembers who he is ? first of all , this marriage , it would be invalid , honey , because he 's already married to someone else . elizabeth : it 's been more than a year . he has n't remembered . i - i -- there 's a very good chance he never will . laura : but are you willing to take that risk ? really ? you know , what about your children ? cameron and aiden are already very attached to this man , jake . you know , what is going to happen to them when he remembers who he is ? and what about little jake ? how are you going to justify not telling him that this man who 's raising him right now is , in fact , his father ? [ scene_break ] sam : i will do everything i can to help you find out who you really are . jason : i appreciate it . this is n't exactly a , uh , simple request . i - i do n't know where i came from , how i got here . i do n't know where i would start . where do you want to start ? sam : um , okay . all right . i think we should probably start with hayden . i mean , before she was shot , she said that she knew who you really are . jason : yeah , she did . that was before she was shot . sam : okay , well , then let 's go back and move forward . when she first came to port charles , she did n't know who you were , so how did she find out ? jason : well [ clears throat ] i 'm thinking it probably had something to do with that mysterious person she mentioned . sam : [ chuckles ] but who could that be ? i mean , it 's obviously not ric . jason : well , we found her id in your cousin 's safe , so my money is on nikolas . sam : yes , that does make sense . he did move her into his house twice , so they are clearly connected . jason : yeah , even if she ca n't remember why or how . sam : but if nikolas does know who you are ... jason : then he found out through helena . is that where we 're going with this ? helena knows who i am . she tells her grandson . and he just withholds this information ? why would he do that ? how could it possibly benefit nikolas if i do n't know who i am or where i came from , huh ? how am i useful to this man ? [ scene_break ] julian : i - i 'm sorry . did you just say that , uh ... olivia : the baby 's mine . i adopted him . julian : oh . oh , i see . so when -- when did this happen ? olivia : when i was visiting with ned . i was trying to cope with the loss of our son , and i decided to volunteer at a church in the neighborhood . [ baby whines ] olivia : yes , honey . julian : back in brooklyn ? olivia : yes , in bensonhurst . and there was a girl , a parishioner . she was very young , very pregnant , very scared . she knew she was n't gon na be able to take care of her baby , so she decided to give him up for adoption . right , honey ? that 's okay . it 's okay . julian : so you offered to take him , huh ? olivia : it 's okay , it 's okay . well , actually , my , uh , parish counselor knew what i was dealing with and -- and thought that , uh , that maybe i would like to -- to take care of little matteo here . julian : well , clearly you jumped at the chance to take him . olivia : not -- not at first , no , no , no . but then i met little matteo . yes , i did . i met you , and of course , no one 's ever gon na be able to replace our little leo , but i 'm just so blessed and so grateful to be able to give this little guy all the love and attention that i could never give our boy . right , honey ? julian : did you get to meet the young lady ? olivia : no , she wanted to keep it anonymous . i do n't know her name . i do n't know how to reach her . i 'll never even be able to thank her for this incredible gift of her son . julian : he , uh , he looks to be about the same age leo would be now . olivia : matteo is actually a couple weeks younger than leo . shh . he was born a couple of days before i turned up at the church . oh , yes . julian : i see , i see . olivia : i should really get going . julian : yeah , sure . olivia : let me just -- julian : oh . olivia : sorry . julian : let me get that for you . olivia : no , no , no , julian , let me get it . i got it . julian : it 's fine . all right , you know what ? at least let me take the baby , okay ? olivia : yes . julian : oh , my goodness . [ baby cries ] julian : it 's okay . i had some practice with my little grandson , right ? hmm ? is n't that right ? [ baby crying ] julian : why does the blanket say leo ? [ scene_break ] dillon : you know ? lulu : yeah . and i understand . dillon : wh -- how -- how can you say that ? lulu : it 'll make things a little awkward . dillon : a little ? lulu : just for now . but it does n't have to affect things moving forward . dillon : how can it not ? lulu : well , it wo n't if we do n't let it . i know this wo n't be easy for you and i to get through , but sooner or later , you are going to find someone who is right for you , dillon . i know you will . dillon : lulu , what are you talking about ? lulu : the same thing you 're talking about ? that you 're in love with me . [ scene_break ] [ maxie walks up to nathan and kisses him ] nathan : what was that for ? maxie : nothing . i just love how uncomplicated we are . [ scene_break ] dante : valerie , wait . valerie , wait . please stop . just ... i did n't mean to upset you . valerie : oh , sure . fine . as long as you did n't mean to . you hear from nathan that i left behind a pregnancy test , and instead of asking me about it , you jump to the conclusion that i 'm pregnant ? dante : i panicked , okay ? i 'm sorry . i panicked . valerie : well , do n't worry . i 'm not pregnant . and even if i were , i would n't keep it . dante : is that what you think ? that i would pressure you to -- to get rid of it ? valerie : do you even hear yourself ? for the record , there 's no way in hell you could pressure me to do anything that i did n't want to do . and with that said , it really makes me wonder what would you do if i were pregnant ? [ scene_break ] laura : besides helena , who else knows the truth about jason ? me , you , nikolas , lucky , and let 's not forget about hayden . elizabeth : [ scoffs ] hayden does n't remember . laura : yeah , that 's the last time you checked . elizabeth : nikolas would tell me . laura : but only if hayden tells nikolas . i 've seen her over there . she 's pretty entrenched . i do n't think she 's going anywhere anytime soon . do you want to leave her with the power to just blow up your life ? would n't you rather just take control of that situation and tell him the truth yourself ? [ door opens ] jake : hi , bye . elizabeth : hey , wait , wait , wait , wait . did your brothers get to their play date okay ? come here . did they ? jake : henry 's mother picked them up . elizabeth : okay , would you like to say hi to your grandmother ? we would love to hear how your day at school went . oh , my god . what happened ? how did you get that ? [ scene_break ] sam : well , if helena told nikolas who you really are , he would n't trust her , and he would want some proof , and i know he would keep that close . jason : we 've already been through his safe . but maybe we should , uh , take a look at his computer . sam : yeah . maybe . what are we waiting for ? let 's go . jason : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . speak of the devil . hayden : oh . [ sighs ] i need to recharge my batteries before we meet up with that personal shopper that you booked . sam : are you thinking what i 'm thinking ? if nikolas and hayden are here ... jason : yeah . let 's do it . hayden : some gentleman you are , `` prince nikolas . `` sam : prince nikolas . you know , my cousin used to be famous for being a gentleman until he lost his ethics somewhere along the line . hayden : really ? sam : yeah . hayden : do you always insult people on sight ? if anyone has bad manners here , it 's you . sam : hmm . hayden : that fiancé of yours is one lucky man . nikolas : i appreciate you having my back , hayden , but sam 's made it very clear that , uh , she 's not very happy with me . sam : no . nikolas : it 's only fair , because i 'm not particularly happy with her , either , especially with her choice of companions . sam : i really do n't care , because i did n't ask for your permission . hayden : i do n't know why you bother , nikolas . clearly she does n't want to have a relationship with you . sam : i actually do want a relationship with my cousin . when he comes back , will you let me know ? hayden : is n't she charming ? nikolas : are n't they both ? hayden : hmm . you looked uncharacteristically uncomfortable when you saw them . nikolas : well , more , uh , inconvenienced than uncomfortable . you know , the two of them trying to always get something on me . hayden : i remember . i was there when they were badgering you about sloane . nikolas : oh . then you know what i 'm talking about . hayden : hmm . nikolas : so , what 'd you get ? huh ? hayden : stop it . nikolas : you would n't let me look around when we were in the store . hayden : because it 's a surprise . nikolas : well , i deserve to know what i paid for . hayden : you will get what you deserve . trust me . nikolas : ca n't wait . hayden : in that case , i 'll give you a little hint . do you like it ? [ she undoes her top button . ] nikolas : [ chuckles ] it 's , uh ... very inspiring . but i do have to ask . um ... [ chuckles ] w - w - what are you doing ? we 're in the middle of a family restaurant . hayden : i just wanted to give you a little preview of tonight . i liked it so much , i had to wear it out of the store . nikolas : [ stammers ] look , i 'm not saying i do n't enjoy [ clears throat ] the view . but , you know , you kind of just gave me a little striptease routine in the middle of a coffee shop , so ... what 's going on ? hayden : you 're blushing . nikolas : [ chuckles ] at least , you know , one of us is behaving appropriately . hayden : because i showed a little bit of skin and some lace ? what ? do you think i frighten the local children ? nikolas : i just think you need a little something to , you know , calm you down . hayden : you want that even less than i do . you kissed me , nikolas . nikolas : so ? you kissed me back . hayden : yes , i did . you were kind enough to take me in when i had no place else to go , and i just want to make sure i pay you back . nikolas : so , this -- what ? this is just about payback ? hayden : in a way , sure . but it 's going to take awhile . nikolas : how long ? hayden : the longer , the better . and i 'm gon na make sure i enjoy every minute of expressing my gratitude . nikolas : yeah , it kind of sounds like i might enjoy that , too . hayden : really ? does that mean that you have feelings for me ? nikolas : hmm . feelings . feelings . hayden : well , the way you 're acting , it 's kind of cute . it 's almost like you care about me . nikolas : okay , well , i - i do n't -- i do n't not care . hayden : [ laughs ] i think it 's time we have a little chat about where this relationship is going . nikolas : this might be weird , but i 'm suddenly not very hungry ... for food . let 's get out of here .

[ scene_break ] dante : if you were pregnant , i do n't know what i would do . valerie : at least you get points for honesty . dante : i 'm so sorry about this , okay ? and what i did was -- was totally unfair . and i would love to make it up to you . i do n't know how , but i can promise you it will never happen again . and all i can tell you is i will beg for your forgiveness . valerie : just when i was ready to hate you ... you go and you make it impossible . [ scene_break ] dillon : what did you just say ? lulu : it 's okay . maxie told me about your feelings . dillon : did she now ? lulu : please do n't be mad . i basically forced it out of her , and i 'm glad that i did because i get it . dillon : you do ? lulu : since you 've been back , things between us , they 've been fun . dillon : yeah . they sure have . lulu : and i 'm sure that that brought back a lot of old feelings . i mean , we never really dealt with the mess that we created in high school . we agreed that it was a mistake and then we walked away , but -- but we left a lot unresolved , and i think those things start to seem more significant over time . and maybe you see that as a turning point in your life . and maybe it was , but -- but , dillon , our lives have moved so far past who we were . dillon : okay , you do n't understand . lulu : yes , i do ! dillon : no , if you would just -- lulu : yes , i do ! we represent each other 's missed chances . i did n't -- i did n't see it before , but i do n't know , maybe i was too close to it , but that is what your script is about . i want you to know that just because i know this , it does n't mean that anything has to change between us . dillon : things are gon na change . lulu : no , not if we do n't let it . you 'll always be my very good friend , dillon , but ... i am married . i have dante . we have a son together . dillon : well , maybe you do n't have what you think you have .

spinelli : yeah . her estranged husband , jason morgan , wished to impart certain information to her , but they were interrupted . so she tried to coerce that information out of me . ellie : do you know ... the information she was asking about ? spinelli : oh , well , i can only assume that jason was trying to -- to share his suspicion that the infant that died last summer was not sam 's , and it just -- it seemed gratuitously cruel to -- to raise sam 's hopes , only to have them dashed again . ellie : yeah , i really do n't understand how those tests i ran on the tissue samples could have been wrong . spinelli : it 's a mystery to us both . and perhaps i was foolish , but i - i hoped that good news would allow sam and jason to move past their differences and come back together again . jason : i 'm sorry that it 's happening this way . sam : what are they doing to find him ? jason : there are apbs in llanview and port charles , and -- and it 's a kidnapping , so the feds are involved . i talked to steven webber , and he 's gon na let me know if heather tries to make any contact at all . sam : okay , but what if she does n't , jason ? jason : she will . she will . she 's obsessed with her son . sam : then why the hell go after my son ? and i - i do n't understand this other woman -- téa ! why would she let heather anywhere near the baby ? ! jason : after heather escaped from ferncliff , she -- she went to llanview , she approached téa . téa recognized heather as the good samaritan who saved her baby . sam : my baby . jason : yeah , right , right . heather convinced téa to hire her as a nanny . sam : a nanny ? jason , how long has this psycho been working for her ? she 's been around my baby . jason : less than a month . sam : oh , five minutes , five seconds is too long to be around heather . jason : when mcbain saw the baby , he was perfectly healthy . sam : i - i do n't understand . why did n't john say anything ? jason : we were waiting for the dna test so we could prove the baby was yours . mcbain went down to llanview to explain to téa ... but by the time he got there , heather and your son were already gone . todd : if heather webber , the town lunatic , is running off with people 's babies , why are you talking to me ? mcbain : this is important , manning . has heather been in contact with you ? todd : no , not -- not -- not since i had to fire her , because she 's a criminal , and [ clears throat ] the only criminal i want working at my newspaper is me . mcbain : so you have n't heard from her ? todd : no , not since they shipped her off to the loony bin . mcbain : i know you 've been in contact with her . i have proof . duke : you know who i am . luke : i know who you look like -- the late duke lavery -- nightclub owner , alleged mobster -- but he was in port charles when i was n't , so we never met . and then he died . anna : yeah . that 's what i believed , too . luke : anna , you just went through this hell , thinking robin was back from the dead . you 're not gon na do this again , are you ? anna : no , but he -- uh , he -- he explained everything , and it 's a long story . luke : yes . did it include a retina scan , fingerprints , and dental records ? anna : he said things that only duke could know . luke : duke could n't know anything right now . he 's been dead for years . duke : well , apparently not , because here i am standing here , very much alive and well . anna : i know it seems impossible , but it 's true . duke : anna and i have a lot of catching up to do , so , if you do n't mind ... luke : actually , i do . duke : i 've gone to an unbelievable amount of trouble to fight my way back to anna , so whatever it is that spencer wants to say to you , i 'm sure it can wait . luke : what spencer is here to do is unpack . duke : i 'm sorry ? luke : this is my place . well , mine and hers . duke : you live with this man ? anna : yeah . after robin died , i - i decided to stay in port charles so that i could be close to my granddaughter . duke : granddaughter ? you 're a grand -- robin has a daughter ? anna : she does . she 's a lovely little girl called emma , and luke understood how important it was for me to be here , so he gave me the second bedroom . duke : ah . well , i see . so you are roommates . luke : we 're a little more than that . lulu : so , we 're talking about spinelli 's date at the wedding -- ellie ? she 's the emergency ? maxie : i can live with just one date . this is serious . lulu : how serious ? maxie : well , they 're having lunch and looking for birds as we speak . lulu : is that supposed to mean something ? maxie : lulu , this girl speaks spinelli 's language . she 's part of the astronomers club . she actually thinks science is fun . and the fact that spinelli 's taking her on a bird - watching picnic proves that he wants to actually get to know her . it wo n't be long before he 's dragging her to the comic - book store . and i bet you ellie is , like , a huge fan of `` the avengers . `` her favorite character is probably the incredible hulk , just like spinelli . although i could never get into anyone besides mighty thor . that 's just because he was played by that really hot australian actor . lulu : hey , you know what ? you should relax , because she 's not ellie spinelli yet , okay ? ellie spinelli -- it sounds like an ' 80s band . maxie : scritti politti ? lulu : no , like milli vanilli . maxie : why are we even talking about this ? and how could you make a joke about spinelli getting married ? he ca n't get married . lulu : why not ? you did . spinelli : sam and jason were my first true friends . before i met them , i was somewhat lacking in my interpersonal skills . ellie : you too ? i mean , social situations have always been a bit of a challenge for me , as well . spinelli : i find that hard to believe . you 're so charming and easy to be around . ellie : really ? thanks . i feel the same way about you . spinelli : you would not have thought so had you met me before my acquaintance with sam and jason . there 's really no good way to measure the good they 've done for me . i only hope to reciprocate it in some way . ellie : that 's so sweet . it makes it even more peculiar that maxie would n't want to be your friend . spinelli : she -- she does n't ? ellie : she said the last thing she wants is to be friends with you , but i get the feeling -- olivia : hey ! we could use a little help around here ! steve : i 'm fine . olivia : no . your mother knocked you out cold . you could have a concussion . spinelli : wait . i 'm sorry . did you say heather attacked you ? spinelli : one -- one second , okay , spinelli ? are you okay ? olivia : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . heather was already gone by the time i found him on the floor . steve : has there been any sign of her ? dante : no . we got units checking the area outside your apartment . did she say anything at all that would tell you where she might be headed ? steve : sorry . dante : what about téa delgado 's baby ? steve : she would n't tell me where the baby was , and it 's not tea 's son . the baby is sam morgan 's . spinelli : i 'm sorry to interrupt , but this is vital information . did you just say that sam 's baby is -- is alive ? steve : alive and well , and my mother 's known the truth the entire time . mcbain : you went to see heather at ferncliff . and before you deny it ... i have the security - camera footage . todd : i , uh , i stopped by to drop off her severance pay . mcbain : you let heather blackmail you then , and you 're letting her blackmail you all over again . todd : if you think heather is lurking here somewhere , knock yourself out . search my hotel suite . i 'm off to llanview , because i 'm gon na -- well , téa needs somebody to hold her hand , and i 'll just have to do . mcbain : no , you 're not going to comfort téa . you 're going there to weasel your way through some story about how you accidentally put another woman 's baby in her hands ! todd : all i have right now is your word that little victor is n't tea 's baby . mcbain : you ca n't spin this anymore , todd . do n't you get it ? when we find that child , téa is gon na find out the truth about everything , including your involvement in the switching of the babies . do you understand ? ! sam : was john able to tell téa that the bab -- that he 's my son ? jason : no . before mcbain could explain anything at all , he -- he found out that heather and the baby were gone , and he did n't want to tell téa after . she had enough to deal with . sam : oh , no . when téa realizes that the baby is n't hers [ sniffles ] it 's gon na be so hard , jason . what she 's gon na go through is -- jason : she 's gon na feel exactly what you felt that night . sam : i could n't believe that he was gone and i could n't hold him in my arms anymore . [ exhales sharply ] my son is alive . jason , he 's alive . we 've got to find him . we 've got to find heather . jason : we -- we will . we will . i promise . sam : we 've got to find him before it 's too late -- before she hurts him . jason : look , just -- just think what your son has already survived . he 's strong , sam . we 're gon na find him . sam : i ca n't lose him , jason . [ sniffles ] i ca n't lose him again . heather : we are gon na have a wonderful life together . yes , we are . just a few things we need before we go . steven lars would n't help us , but i know someone who can . he might not be too happy to hear from me . our relationship 's been a bit strained . but that does n't mean he wo n't come through . luke : slim and i are -- duke : slim ? luke : that 's what i call her . duke : is that true ? anna : oh , yeah . uh , luke and i are -- we were involved . luke : i like to think of us as in the present tense , despite what happened in switzerland . duke : switzerland ? luke : look , we have a lot to discuss privately , so if you do n't mind postponing your reunion -- since you 've been dead for so many years , i 'm sure a couple of hours is not gon na make any difference . duke : well , actually , spencer , i do mind . maxie : i married matt for a specific reason . lulu : so you would n't have to testify against him . maxie : yes , and spinelli knew that . lulu : and he also knew that matt confessed and offered to end the marriage , which you refused . maxie : whose side are you on here ? lulu : i 'm just being a good friend , and a good friend tells you the truth . maxie : ca n't you massage it a little ? lulu : the point is , you should understand why spinelli would think he should move on . maxie : oh , i understand , in theory . i just did n't expect spinelli to move on with someone who 's so ... perfect for him . i mean , okay , if i were to set spinelli up with someone -- and i would never do that -- i 'd pick ellie . i mean , she 's nerdy but in a cute sort of way . and she 's very enthusiastic . she was talking about this astronomy thing . it had something to do with the planet venus , but she was so excited . she was talking about it like it was a 50 % -off sale of cartullo sling - backs . what are you doing ? lulu : trying to get pregnant . maxie : do n't you need dante for that ? dante : your mother switched sam and tea 's babies during the storm ? steve : it 's the only possible explanation . dante : how does that even happen -- how she got access to these kids ? dr. rashi : what 's going on ? i just heard you were brought in . steve : i 'm okay . dr. rashi : let me take a look . is there an exam room free ? nurse : 3 is clear . dr. rashi : it 's okay . i 'll be quick . i promise . dante : look , i 'm gon na follow up with the search team , see if they got anything on heather . olivia : all right . spinelli : you were right . ellie : so were you . spinelli : the baby that died that night , may he rest in peace , was not sam 's . sam 's baby is alive . this changes everything for jason and sam . sam : [ sniffles ] i ca n't fall apart now . my baby needs me . jason : sam , w - where are you going ? sam : i 've got to get out of here , jason . i have to find my kid . jason : there 's nothing you can do . there 's a lot of people looking for your son . sam : i 'm his mother . i have to do something . jason : where would you even start ? you do n't even know where heather went . sam : maybe i do . mcbain : there 's no hiding from this anymore , todd . tea 's gon na lose her baby -- the child she thought was hers , you know . the one she has cared for and loved for the last four months . she 's paying for your lies all over again , and this time , it 's gon na hurt even worse . todd : i think it 's time for you to leave . mcbain : i thought you wanted me to search the place . todd : do you have a warrant ? mcbain : the next warrant i get is gon na be for your arrest . todd : téa . sam : there 's one person in port charles who would help heather webber . jason : todd manning . sam : you said that he helped her the night in the woods , right ? jason : yeah , well , that 's -- it 's just a theory . we do n't have any proof . sam : jason , it 's obvious that he was blackmailed . i mean , why else would he hire a former mental patient ? jason : probably . sam : yes . probably . it all fits . it makes sense . it explains why todd would crumple up the article on my baby 's death . he knew what he was doing . he knew he had given my baby to téa . that 's why he hired me as an assistant . that 's why he came to the funeral . he felt guilty but not guilty enough to tell me that my baby was alive . jason : it seems like todd would have done almost anything to keep his part in this from coming out . sam : what if he still would ? todd : okay , téa . i know you hate my guts . i still care about you enough to try and make this right . [ cell phone ringing ] todd : uh - oh . who 's this ? heather : hello , todd . todd : heather webber , where the hell are you ? heather : oh , really , todd . we have n't spoken in how long ? are n't you even gon na ask me how i 've been getting along since i left ferncliff ? todd : since you escaped ferncliff . heather : how else was i gon na get out of there ? todd : what the hell were you thinking ? you run off with téa delgado 's kid ? heather : we both know that 's not possible . tea 's baby is dead . i have sam 's kid . todd : if you lay one finger on that kid , i will hunt you down personally . heather : why would i hurt this child ? he 's getting excellent care . he 's such a good baby . yeah . and i 'm gon na show everybody what a wonderful mother i am . todd : did you just say `` mother `` ? heather : yes . everything is as it should be . or it will be , with your help . sam : we 've got to find todd . we 've got to see what he knows about heather . [ knock on door ] mcbain : hi . sam : hi . what are you doing here ? jason : sam knows her son is alive . mcbain : did you explain everything ? jason : yeah , i did . mcbain : it 's a lot to take in . sam : yeah . i just -- i want to find my son . jason : we were just trying to figure out who might know where heather is . mcbain : well , i just got back from manning 's . uh , he still 's a weasel . he 's still not talking . [ cell phone ringing ] jason : spinelli , hey , i 'm glad you called . spinelli : please just listen . i - i have the most incredible information . i have just learned that your suspicion was correct . sam 's baby is alive . jason : i know . i just told sam . mcbain : hey , do n't worry . i 'm going for round 2 on manning , all right ? he knows more than what he 's saying . sam : i know . the whole time i was working for todd , i knew he was hiding something . i just never in a million years would have thought it was this . mcbain : how are you doing with all this ? sam : okay . i mean , i 'm happy . i 'm beyond happy that my son is alive , but ... i 'm terrified that i 'm never gon na see him . mcbain : do n't let yourself think that way , all right ? your little boy 's made it this far . we 're bringing him home to you . sam : jason told me you were the one that got the dna sample . mcbain : i did . sam : so then you saw him . mcbain : i did . sam : he 's big ? he 's healthy ? mcbain : yeah . he 's a beautiful boy . jason : no , no . hold on . heather disappeared with the baby sometime yesterday afternoon , and they 're looking for her in llanview . the theory is she might have tried to come back to port charles . spinelli : well , all is not lost . there 's someone at the hospital who might know just how to find heather . nurse : dr. rashi asked you to wait , steve . he 's ordering more tests . steve : i do n't need more tests . nurse : well , dr. rashi says you do . steve : i 'm a doctor , too . olivia : yeah , and we all know that doctors make the worst patients . steve : i was just trying to explain to her that i 'm fine . olivia : because you think that this nurse is not gon na argue with you , but i can . i 'll take it from here , honey . thank you . nurse : good luck . olivia : yeah . steve : i want to go out and help search for my mother . olivia : that 's tough . we 're gon na wait for the neurological consult , which translates to you sitting here and staying put . steve : any news ? dante : nothing yet . we 're setting up roadblocks . if your mother tries to leave town , we will find her . olivia : you know , i 'm just thinking -- this means i was right . when i saw heather , i - i knew that she was in port charles . maybe we should start taking my visions a little more seriously . lulu : so , we have n't told many people that dante and i are trying to get pregnant . maxie : oh , my gosh ! congratulations ! wait . what happened to the , uh , `` now 's not a good time , i 'm too stressed , i do n't want to get pregnant `` ? lulu : well , that was before you forced me to take a pregnancy test and it turned out positive . maxie : that was a false alarm , right ? lulu : well , the doctor did n't really know . it could have been a bad test or a chemical pregnancy , but , either way , it made us think about having a child and what it would mean and if we want it , and it turns out we do . maxie : i knew it . you guys are gon na make the cutest parents . lulu : well , we 're trying . so i have to record my temperature and , like , write down the stuff that we 're doing in a journal . maxie : oh , wow . and the sitting upside down ? lulu : i just read somewhere that it helps . like , gravity helps , or it ca n't hurt . maxie : and here i thought getting pregnant would be fun . lulu : there are fun parts . maxie : oh , man . you realize you 're glowing , right ? i mean , i - i know that i 'm supposed to happy for your guys , and i am . you and dante are just so in love and perfect for each other , and now you 're gon na be having a family . you know , you used to be as good at relationship sabotage as i am , so how did you manage to pull yourself back from the brink and i never did ? lulu : i take it you have n't told spinelli how you really feel . maxie : i wanted to at the wedding . i wanted to -- to pull him aside and look him in the eye and tell him that i love him , that he 's the one i - i want to spend the rest of my life with , the one i want to build my life with , and that it does n't scare me . the thought of committing myself completely to spinelli -- it does n't scare me . it actually thrills me and excites me . [ sighs ] lulu : you need to tell him this -- the sooner , the better ! maxie : i know . it 's just then he asked ellie to go to the wedding with him , and now they 're on a bird - watching picnic together , and that is important . i do n't care what you say . i just think it 's too late . lulu : if there has been one thing that i have learned , it 's that if two people are meant to be together , it is never too late for them to find their way back to each other . duke : i have gone through hell to fight my way back here to find anna , and i have no intention of leaving . luke : you do n't live here . we do . anna : uh , luke and i -- we have a lot of things that we need to discuss . and i ca n't possibly ask duke to leave , because we -- i have to talk to him . luke : he can wait downstairs in the bar . caroline has a fine wine list . all right . you want to talk in front of the ghost ? i can do that . i did what you asked . i found robert , and i came clean with him . i told him that ethan is my son , not his , and then -- anna : and ? luke : and it came to blows , and holly negotiated a cease - fire . duke : so robert and holly have found their way back to each other ? there 's hope for the rest of us . luke : so i did what i said i was going to do -- i found robert , and i cleared things up with him . now i 'd like to clear things up with you . look , slim , we 've got something here -- something real . and i do n't want to lose it . and i do n't think you do , either . duke : there 's just one problem with that . anna 's my wife . luke : anna did marry duke lavery , but then he died -- twice -- which makes her a widow -- twice -- free to remarry . and she did -- pardon me for this -- not only to robert scorpio , but also to some guy in pine valley . i think his name was -- anna : david . luke : hayward . anna : yes . luke is right . we -- everybody thought that you were dead . duke : of course . i would have expected you to move on with your life , but i 'm not dead . i am here . so therefore all subsequent marriages -- they become null and void . luke : well , if that 's true , you and your attorneys can take it up with city hall . now , if you start the process today , you might be back for christmas dinner . duke : i 'm not leaving until i 've had a private conversation with anna . luke : well , if you 're not leaving and i 'm not leaving -- anna : i 'm leaving . i 'm going back to the police station . luke : wait a minute . you ca n't walk out on us . anna : i am still commissioner of this city , and there are two dangerous criminals on the loose -- heather webber and joe scully jr . so -- luke : we still need to talk . duke : anna , we -- we need to talk . anna : we will talk . i 'll talk to both of you later . maxie : you 're a genius . lulu : i am ? maxie : yes . i do n't know what i was so upset about . i just need to tell spinelli how i feel ... lulu : wait , maxie . maxie : ... if i can find him after his date . i mean , how long does it take to look at birds , anyway ? lulu : just one minute . wait . maxie : for what ? did n't you just say that it 's never too late for people to find their way back to each other again ? lulu : i did , and that 's absolutely true . but if you go to spinelli and tell him everything he 's ever wanted to hear , he might think -- maxie : think what ? that i finally know the truth ? that we belong together ? that he missed me just as much as i miss him , i was just too stubborn to admit it ? that before , i was taking advantage of spinelli , but i would never do that again ? lulu : i know -- i know that you mean that , and you really , really mean that , but he might think that you 're saying all of this stuff because he 's with somebody else . maxie : thanks a lot . lulu : wait . do n't misunderstand . you still need to tell him how you really feel . i just think that you need to bring a little something extra to the table . maxie : like what ? lulu : i do n't know . just something that would get his attention , something that might show him how much you care about him . maxie : it 's a really good idea , but what ? what ? ellie : you have no idea how glad i am those tests i ran were correct . i hated thinking i had made a mistake in the lab . spinelli : i regret that you had to doubt yourself . ellie : well , i was just telling maxie that the lab and the laws of science are so much more reasonable than , well , the outside world . spinelli : in regards to maxie , you said something earlier that puzzled me . ellie : i did . spinelli : yeah . that the last thing that maxie wanted was to be friends with me , but that you had a feeling , and then we got interrupted . ellie : right . of course . what i was gon na say was that i just got the distinct feeling that maxie was -- spinelli : hey , sam , i am so sorry for my subterfuge earlier . i - i wanted to tell you what i knew about the baby , but i - i was afraid that our hopes were unfounded . sam : it 's okay . none of that matters now . jason : we just need to know if heather told steve anything about sam 's baby . spinelli : right . dante : did heather explain why she took this child ? was it for ransom ? sam : whatever it is , i 'll pay . i do n't care what she wants . i just want my son back . steve : my mother is n't after money . dante : well , then , what does she want ? steve : a family . she was talking about the baby like it was her own son . heather : after everything we 've shared , the least you could do is help me and my baby get out of dodge . todd : w - w - what do you mean , your baby ? heather : do n't change the subject . i need passports , and i need money . todd : no , i can not help you disappear with this kid . heather : of course you can . todd : he 's not your child . you ca n't -- you ca n't play god with him . heather : what do you think you were doing out in the woods when you let téa take sam 's baby ? if that 's not playing , i do n't know what is . todd : no , it was your idea to give téa sam 's baby , not mine . heather : that 's not what i 'll tell the cops . todd : are you blackmailing me ? let me tell you something . you blackmail me and steven lars will be behind bars faster than he can change his own socks . heather : steven lars has turned his back on me . i have another child to provide for . todd : this is not your child ! heather : if you do n't get me and my son out of this country ... i 'll be happy to share the details of all of your crimes with anyone who will listen . todd : fine . give me the damn address . heather : i thought you 'd come around to my way of thinking . [ chuckles ] it 's the nite lite motel . room 203 . todd : nite lite hotel . heather : oh , and , todd , i guess i do n't need to tell you , but ... no one else needs to know about this . todd : right . the chill of peppermint . ellie : i 'm so glad the results were correct , and i really hope everything works out with your friends . speaking of , i can finally tell you what i was gon na tell you before . spinelli : oh . yes . please enlighten me . ellie : okay , so , even though maxie said she did n't want to be your friend , i just had the distinct impression that she was protesting too much and she actually really cares about you , and i think maxie misses having you in her life . spinelli : do you think she 's jealous of -- of you dating me ? ellie : to be honest , i guess i had n't even considered that as a possibility . spinelli : well , good , 'cause , uh , it 's not . it 's -- it 's not a possibility . i mean , she could n't be jealous , because she made it crystal clear that she has no romantic interest in me whatsoever . maxie : you 're right . i need to prove to spinelli that i 'm serious about him . but i ca n't do that if i 'm still married to matt . lulu : so , what are you gon na do ? maxie : i do n't know , but i need to talk to matt . spinelli : though it was painful at the time , i 'm really grateful that maxie was honest about her lack of feelings for me , because , if she had n't been , i might not have opened myself up to life 's possibilities . sam : heather wants to keep my son ? steve : i think she 's trying to prove she can be a good mother . jason : well , at least that gives her incentive to take care of the baby . sam : i 'm sorry , but that does n't make me feel any better . steve : there 's another problem -- the baby 's on medication for beta thalassemia . sam : what if my son does n't get his medicine ? steve : find the baby -- before we have to deal with that . heather : time for your medicine . you 're always such a good boy when i give it to you . oh , dear . that was the last dose . mcbain : hey , anna . anna : john . oh . any progress on heather ? mcbain : no , not yet . are you okay ? anna : yeah . luke : like i said , i 'm here to shower , unpack , and get some rest . there 's the door . duke : why do n't you do yourself a favor , spencer , and bow out gracefully ? luke : i do n't do gracefully . it 's not my style . duke : then i suggest you change your style and perhaps just lower your expectations . whatever you thought you had with anna , you no longer have . anna : something came up in my personal life . i ca n't quite wrap my head around it . mcbain : can i help ? anna : yeah . you can keep me focused . i need to work . mcbain : good . all right . let 's start with todd manning , all right ? if my hunch is correct , he 'll lead us right to heather webber . todd : 203 ...

[ baby fussing ] jerry : all you have to do is meet the terms of our agreement . robin : cure you of your polonium poisoning . i know . jerry : in the meantime , i brought you sustenance and , of course , your medication . robin : hope you 're not expecting a tip . jerry : oh , robin . consider yourself lucky you 're getting anything at all after that stunt you pulled yesterday . it was foolish , albeit brave , to clock obrecht and make a run for it . robin : well , it 's not my fault that she 's susceptible to flattery . jerry : well , what can you say ? she 's a mad scientist . all they do is crave validation . robin : so where did the doctor and her bruised ego go ? jerry : oh , that is none of your concern . robin : well , i 'm not concerned . i 'm just curious . the only thing i could get out of her was that she was going to see someone that she loves as much as i love patrick . anna : commissioner anna devane . i 'm here to see cesar faison . it 's a matter of life and death . elizabeth : unh - unh . not since his arraignment . patrick : you went ? elizabeth : only because michael begged me to . patrick : how you doing with all this ? elizabeth : i do n't know . i ca n't even bring myself to go see him in jail . and if i 'm completely honest , i ... i miss him . you know , he used to make me laugh all the time . he was really good with my boys , and it just felt good to have him around . and now that he 's not ... my life feels a little less . patrick : i 'm sorry that i have n't been there for you through this . elizabeth : you 're busy . patrick : no , you 're a dear friend of ours , and i should have made more time , especially because you were so wonderful for both of us after robin died . emma : auntie elizabeth ? elizabeth : mm - hmm ? emma : did daddy tell you what today is ? it 's mommy 's birthday . robin : it just does n't make any sense . why would obrecht leave her grandson here ? jerry : well , she clearly has faith in your abilities as a nurturer . robin : but where could she possibly go that she could n't bring him with her ? jerry : why would you question the motives of a sociopathically disturbed woman ? you wo n't find answers that make sense to you . robin : at least i have this little guy to keep me company . jerry : now , do n't get side - tracked . eat , take your meds , and finish formulating the cure , and you can go back to the family you hold so dear . all right ? ta - da . robin : what 's this ? jerry : it 's your birthday , is n't it ? olivia : day in and day out with no change . you -- you must have thought he was never gon na come back . duke : it 's been a pretty difficult time , especially for anna . you know what i mean ? i have n't actually spoken to her . i 've got a couple of messages from her . but i 'd imagine she 's spending a lot of time with robert . olivia : where 'd you go just now ? duke : nowhere . olivia : okay , i do n't know what 's going on , but it 's obvious there 's something that you 're not entirely happy about . duke : oh , do n't misunderstand me . i 'm very relieved that robert 's doing better . it 's just -- olivia : so why the long face ? duke : i just hope he does n't decide that he wants anna back . robert : i did n't see you standing there . mac : i was being quiet in case you were sleeping . robert : after 12 months , i think i 've had enough . mac : i bet . so who were you talking to ? robert : oh , i was leaving a message for anna . um ... she likes me to check in . but most times she 's too busy to take my call . mac : yeah , what 's going on with her ? she left a message with me last night saying she had to leave . did n't say where , when she was coming back . i mean , just to look after you and check out the transport museum if we had time . robert : hey , that 's anna . mac : maybe . but , robert , we did n't come all this way to see local attractions . we came to see you . robert : of which there are plenty , but as soon as i -- mac : robert we 're here one day , and anna 's already taken off . what happened ? where did anna have to all of a sudden ? one of your former handlers at wsb arranged for your clearance . anna : thank you . the prisoner is a dangerous criminal . i 'd feel safer if i was armed . yes , the clearance for your sidearm has been granted . right this way . bringing in the prisoner . that anna had to leave right after you re - entered the land of the living ? anna : we do n't know about robin . do n't tell mac or patrick or emma -- no one . you understand ? robert : what else ? chasing the bad guys . mac : she 's got a lead on obrecht ? robert : we 're hoping . mac : i guess anna has n't told you about that psycho 's latest stunt . robert : what 's dr. death done this time ? mac : she clocked her daughter and kidnapped her newborn grandson . robert : any leads ? mac : no . obrecht 's trail went cold the minute she boarded the private plane . anna thinks she 's holed up in europe somewhere but , you know , on the other hand , she might have refueled while she was here , and she 'd be on the other side of the planet by now . robert : dragging a baby . poor kid . mac : god only knows what she wants him for . i just hope she has a heart under that ruthless exterior . but i doubt it . you know , more likely she 's gon na use that child as some kind of lab rat . robert : well , here 's hoping there 's an angel out there looking out for the little guy . robin : you say that it 's my birthday , but i honestly have no idea if what you 're saying is true . it could be christmas or a tuesday . i do n't know . jerry : no , really , on this day in history , you were born not far from here across the ionian sea in italy . you were called robin soltini , an unlikely but necessary name so that no one would know that you were the daughter of a hunted wsb double agent . you lived with a woman who you thought was your grandmother . you grew up thinking that your own mother was merely a family friend . your father did n't even know you existed until much later . robin : and if i ever need a biographer , you 'll be my first phone call . but i do n't believe for a second that you give a damn about me . so why are we celebrating my birthday ? what 's in it for you ? elizabeth : of course i know it 's your mommy 's birthday . it 's the first thing i thought about when i woke up this morning . emma : me and daddy , too . i 'm making a card for mommy . and i 'm using the pencils you gave me to make it special and pretty . elizabeth : can i see it ? oh , wow . that is an amazing angel . emma : that 's mommy . elizabeth : i can tell . it looks just like her . emma : and that 's daddy , and that 's me . elizabeth : oh . emma : and mommy can see us because she 's up in heaven . we ca n't see her . i wish we could , but ... we ca n't . read the inside . elizabeth : okay . `` happy birthday , mommy . daddy and i miss you every day . `` olivia : what 's the matter with you ? ! thinking anna 's gon na get back together with robert . duke : they have a complicated history . olivia : so what ? ! they had 20-some - odd years to get back together while you were gone , but did they ? duke : they have a bond -- olivia : no ! no , they did n't . why not ? because anna is in love with you . i 've seen the way she looks at you when she does n't know you 're looking . it 's like her heart is in her eyes . duke : thank you . that 's exactly what i needed to hear today . thank you . olivia : of course , that robert scorpio is pretty -- he 's pretty smoking hot . you know , he 's got that great smile and that sharp style . i mean , the guy is a spy . duke : okay . he 's got a glamorous job . he 's got style . he 's got a great dentist . what of it ? olivia : he 's got the accent , too . it 's like it reaches into my so . duke : i have got an accent , too . olivia : yes , you do , and it 's very adorable . it really is . it 's just not the same . duke : i did n't realize that you knew robbie quite so well . olivia : well , i do n't . not really . duke : but enough . olivia : okay , you caught me . the last time he was in town , i was kind of nursing a gigantic crush on him . when he was investigating you , only you were n't you . you were cesar faison . [ door closes ] faison : anna ... anna , my anna . you came . i 've dreamed of this day . never believed it would happen . but you 're truly here . anna : yes , i 'm here . but not to reminisce . faison : i 'm ready to discuss whatever you like as long as you like . anna : this has to be quick . we do n't have much time . i need to ask you something of great importance . who was wandering around port charles with my face , trying to hijack my life , using my memories . olivia : i honestly do n't know how you survived that . i think i would have lost my marbles . duke : well , if it had n't been for robert , who figured out that the duke lavery who was trying to worm his way into anna 's life actually was faison , then , well , as soon as i see robert and am able to talk to him , i 'm going to ask him how the deuce he caught on . olivia : or i could just tell you . duke : why ? were you there when he figured it out ? olivia : well , i do n't like to toot my own horn , but it was sort of because of me . mac : well , the doctors say you 're doing great , better than expected . i mean , you 're remembering things as far back as the first world war . robert : actually , the crusades . mac : seriously , except for blanking about obrecht , you 're sharp as ever . robert : and do n't you forget it . mac : i 'm sure you know today 's robin 's birthday . robert : of course i know . i do n't forget stuff like that . all of her birthdays ... the ones i did n't attend , all the important dates . hell , i missed her funeral even though -- mac : even though what ? anna : listen , i have to explain something to you . faison : before you say anything more , i must apologize . you know i love you , anna . i 'm so sorry . deceiving you the way i did , masquerading ... as lavery ... anna : i do n't want to relive what you put me through . faison : no , but i was desperate to get near you . i thought i could trick you into loving me . we could have been so happy together , anna . instead , when my little plan went awry , you were hurt , angry , repulsed , and i do n't blame you . can you forgive me ? anna : maybe ... i 'll be able to some day . but that all depends on how you respond to what i have to tell you . faison : well , tell me . you know i 'll do anything to make it up to you . so what is it ? what is it ? tell me . anna : it 's about ... robin . jerry : you see , robin , this little birthday party was like a wake - up call . the sooner you return to work , the sooner you 're gon na see patrick , and from then on , you can celebrate as many birthdays as you want with him . emma : daddy , can we put the card i made into the special memory box for mommy ? elizabeth : you have a special box for memories of mommy ? emma : we do . it 's where daddy keeps mommy 's wedding ring , and he put his in there with it . patrick : hey , remember tj wanted to see your card when you 're done ? why do n't you go show him ? emma : okay . elizabeth : here . emma : tj ! elizabeth : [ chuckles ] so you took your wedding band off . patrick : i did . elizabeth : i wondered when that was gon na happen . i know it was a big decision for you . patrick : yeah . yeah , it was . [ clears throat ] it was time . sabrina has been amazing the last couple months with britt and the baby , and it was n't fair to her , and i wanted to let her know that i 'm ... ready to move on . elizabeth : i heard sabrina 's ex came looking for her . patrick : yeah . elizabeth : come on . it 's the hospital . word gets around . patrick : it had nothing to do with this ... mostly . elizabeth : well , tell me . patrick : [ scoffs ] yes , her ex - boyfriend carlos , who is a -- elizabeth : hottie ? patrick : really ? elizabeth : what ? i told you . word gets around . patrick : yeah , i was gon na say `` jerk . `` did that word get around ? elizabeth : oh . patrick : coincidentally , he mentioned my ring , and it brought the subject to the forefront . elizabeth : mm - hmm . and presumably to sabrina 's attention . patrick : i took the ring off because i love sabrina and i want to have a future with her . and that 's the only reason . elizabeth : how does it feel ? patrick : funny . i thought that it would ... you know , when i took the ring off and put it away , i thought that it would -- i do n't know -- be -- be different , that it would ... help me ... let go of robin . elizabeth : but it does n't . patrick : honestly , i feel like my connection with robin is stronger now than it ever was . jerry : you 've already spent two birthdays without patrick and emma . how many more do you want to spend without them ? robin : take a wild guess . jerry : good . now , we both know that if i die on this island , so do you . robin : yes , i remember every single one of your death threats very clearly . jerry : oh , `` threat `` is such an ugly word . worst - case scenario , i die , you die . best - case scenario , i live , you go free . that 's a pleasant scenario , do n't you think ? robin : no question . jerry : good ! now get back to work . but not after you did your birthday wish . i ca n't imagine what it will be . [ laughs ] [ door closes ] patrick : robin 's been gone the whole time , and i still ca n't bring myself to believe that she 's not coming back . elizabeth : [ clears throat ] patrick -- emma : daddy , look what tj gave me . so we can celebrate mommy 's birthday . you tell me as if i do n't robin : what is it ? patrick : open it and see . robin : two first - class tickets to tokyo ? patrick : that 's right . man , we 're going to tokyo . it does n't stop there . robin : wait , wait , wait . what if i had picked paris or something ? or -- no way . no , you did n't . patrick : and paris . robin : i mean , when are we gon na find time to take three trips ? patrick : it might take us the rest of our lives to do these trips , but we 're gon na do them . robin : i love you . patrick : i love you , too . robin : being here , i mean , you are the best present i could ever have . patrick : happy birthday . emma : i made mommy 's wish for her . you want to know what she wished for ? patrick : yes . emma : mommy wished that she could come home to us . robert : i could n't stick around for my daughter 's funeral . i mean , i just could n't stick around to say goodbye to my little girl . mac : luke read your letter . i think we all understood , you know . i do n't think any of us expected you to show up after seeing -- robert : the charred remains . mac : i 'm sorry . i should n't have brought it up . okay , we do n't have to do this . robert : listen , if i ca n't talk to you about this , who can i talk to ? what that fire and explosion left behind was unrecognizable . i could n't believe that it was robin . but i could n't deny it , either . mac : no father should ever have to see that , robert . robert : i could have been stronger . stronger for ... emma , for patrick , for you , for anna . well ... especially for anna . it bothers me that that was the last chance i had to say goodbye to my little girl . mac : maybe it was n't . olivia : you know how i have these psychic visions sometimes ? okay , there was this one day that `` duke `` walked into the haunted star , only it was n't duke . i did n't see duke like everyone else did . i saw this crazy , scraggly haired , craggy man . duke : you had a vision of faison . olivia : yes ! exactly ! only i did n't know it was faison at the time . all i knew was it sent chills down my spine , you know , like i was looking in the face of everything evil . so needless to say , i was pretty freaked out . so i went and i told lulu . lulu told robbie . robbie came and asked me a whole bunch of questions . and then he hooked me up with elizabeth webber , who it turns out is a really excellent artist . so she drew the face while i described it . duke : like a police sketch . olivia : yes ! exactly ! and the face that i described was faison . and then after that , robbie was off and running . duke : well , i do n't know what to say except i 'm deeply grateful to you . olivia : well , i did n't really do anything . all i did was have a crazy vision . robbie was the one who took the information and ran with it . duke : well , he could n't have done it without your help . olivia : listen , i 'm just grateful that this faison guy is behind bars , and thank god i 'm not gon na be having anymore visions of him . faison : well , i 'm sure robin 's never far from your mind . especially on a beautiful day like today . it 's her birthday . anna : i 'm surprised you know that . faison : how could i not ? the daughter of the woman i love above all . how you must miss her . she must feel so far away . as you have felt to me . anna : to not see her or touch her ... to come to terms with the fact that i 'm never going to be with her again ... faison : anna , please listen to what i have to say . anna : what is it ? faison : robin is alive . daddy , i left it on the counter . patrick : you better go get it . emma : okay , but it better not have any breakfast gunk on it . tj ! elizabeth : you okay ? patrick : just thinking of the last birthday that robin and i spent together of hers . i rented a limo , and i went and picked her up at work and stole her away , which was n't easy , because you know the way she was with work , always so busy . i got her a few airline tickets -- one to tokyo , rio -- elizabeth : and paris . i know . she told me . she 'd never been to tokyo or rio , but for all the years she lived in paris , she just dreamed of sharing it with someone . she wanted to go back but only with you . patrick : i told her that we had our whole lives together to do that . i told her that we had time to make our dreams come true . but the truth is we did n't have the time . elizabeth : patrick you could n't have known that , neither of you . patrick : no , but why did n't i just whisk her away ? why did n't i just take her away right then and there ? we could have changed our lives . she would n't have been in the lab . elizabeth : listen to me . you need to forget about the trips you did n't take and remember the ones you did . you need to think about all the good times , remember how she used to smile and laugh and tell you that she loves you . that needs to stick in your head and your heart . she loved you so much . you can never regret that . robin : i 'm gon na finish jerry 's cure . and i 'm getting out of this godforsaken hellhole . i 'm going home , and i 'm doing it today . mac : we recorded her funeral . robert : you did ? mac : amfar requested it for a tribute they were doing for robin . look , i was n't sure it was the right thing to do at the time . but , robert , the outpouring of love ... was unbelievable . i do n't know if this is something you want to -- robert : play it . mac : you 're sure ? robert : it 's my daughter 's funeral . i want to see some of that ... that ... love that i missed . play it . mac : i was no one 's idea of father material when i took on the responsibility of raising robin . i promised to take care of her . but it was clear from the beginning that she was also taking care of me . robert : [ sighs ] mac : but i had a lot to learn about my niece ... about robin 's capacity for hope and love . and when robin was diagnosed with h.i.v . , i was awed by her courage . robin faced her diagnosis like she faced everything that life threw at her -- with strength and dignity . i 'm gon na tell you something that i always used to say to robin . `` we 're family . we 're scorpios . and there 's nothing we ca n't get through together . `` are you sure you 're okay with this ? robert : yeah . elizabeth : we all know how stubborn she could be . but she was stubborn for a reason . she fought hard for what she believed in , and she fought hard for the people she loved . a few months ago when she thought she might not be here for emma ... she asked if i would step in for her . well , i knew then what i know now ... and that 's robin 's irreplaceable . robert : you are so right about that . anna : well , i do n't think it can be argued that robin was a truly magnificent human being . you know , seriously , i used to look at her and think , `` oh , my gosh . how did i possibly give birth to her ? `` she was very kind and very forgiving , especially to me . and she became so accomplished and just capable , you know , and so self - sufficient always . she had so much love and support from so many people . it takes a village , does n't it ? quite an eclectic village , are n't you ? thank you ... for everything you gave to my daughter and for everything [ sniffles ] that you shared that she gave back to you . especially you , mac . you know , you were her hero . you know that , do n't you ? [ sniffles ] 'cause you were there for her all the time that i was n't . patrick : you know , i thought my life was complete , and then this ... beautiful but bossy little thing came into my life , and ... she changed it all . when i met her , a world opened up to me that -- that i did n't know , a - a world that ... people mattered . family mattered . and love and ... the future mattered . she taught me compassion and perseverance , and she ... she taught me that it -- it was n't enough just to be great ... that you had to care . i feel so lucky because she cared about me . she loved me so much . and she loved being a mom . and she loved our little daughter . she made me feel that if you had love , anything was possible . robert : you all right ? mac : i 'm sorry . uh ... [ chuckles ] i wanted to do this for you . i did n't realize how hard it would be . i miss her so much . robert : there 's something i got to tell you . duke : i really should try to call anna . today 's gon na be a difficult day for her . well , it 's her daughter robin 's birthday . olivia : oh . oh , i had n't realized . i 'm sorry . that 's so sad . duke : did you know robin ? olivia : not very well . but i knew how much sonny loved her . i mean , everybody did . duke : i had n't seen her since she was a child . she was a great champion of mine . but her mother was reluctant to give me a chance . as far as stepdaughters go , she was the best stepdaughter in the world . we used to do a lot of things together . we cooked together . i taught her to play the bagpipes . olivia : [ laughs ] i bet the neighbors loved that . duke : no . she did . and that 's all that mattered . i treasure those memories . olivia : well , you obviously meant a great deal to her . duke : oh , she meant a great deal to me , too . anna : robin is alive ? ! that 's impossible ! faison : no , it 's not . anna : [ gasps ] faison : i kept her alive ... for you , anna . anna : how did you do that ? how did you keep her alive and hidden from me for all this time when you 've been in prison ? how did you do that ? faison : i have my collaborators outside , of course . anna : who ? ! i want names . who ? faison : jerry jacks ... the late dr. ewan keenan . and the lion 's share of help came from one of my most trusted associates ... dr. liesl obrecht . anna : oh , yes , i 'm familiar with dr. obrecht . she is devoted to you . loyal to a fault . it seems that she would rather die an to break your confidence . faison : yeah , that 's one of her admirable qualities . yes . anna : do you know she tried to kill someone in order to gain your affection ? faison : well , she 's in love with me ! it 's not that i want to make you jealous . she always has been . anna : you must have some attachment to her , given everything she 's done for you . faison : i have never returned her feelings , and i never will . anna : never ? faison : anna ... you 're the only woman in my life . i love you . only you . you feel so close to robin right now , other than the fact that it is her birthday , i think you realize it 's time to let her go . patrick : you 're probably right . when i took my ring off , it was like my whole body knew that something was missing . because i do n't want to let her go . elizabeth : taking the ring off means you 're saying goodbye . that 's what you 're doing . you 're saying goodbye . patrick : [ scoffs ] elizabeth : [ sighs ] i know . uh , i got to go . call me if you need anything , okay ? patrick : thank you . elizabeth : love you . patrick : love you , too . emma : found mommy 's card . patrick : you did ? good . okay . got to get going . got to get you to school . emma : okay , but will you keep my card for me ? until we put it in the memory box together later . patrick : promise . come on . emma : thank you . patrick : you 're welcome . let 's go . [ sighs ] happy birthday , my love . robin : jerry ? [ sighs ] jerry , get in here ! get in ! come ! get in here ! jerry : be quiet . the baby 's going to start screaming . you would n't want that . so what 's your problem ? robin : i do n't have a problem . and neither will you very soon . jerry : are you saying -- robin : i 'm saying you 're not going to die of polonium poisoning . i 've done it . i can cure you . mac : what is it ? what do you need to tell me ? robert : mac , um ... mac : what ? robert , tell me . i mean , it 's like you just said . robert : we can trust mac . anna : it 's not about trust . i know what it feels like to get your hopes up only to have them crushed . robert : bro , you know , i 've been thinking . instead of ... i - instead of robin 's funeral , we should be thinking about her as -- as she was with us , you know , full of love and full of love and a belief that a - anything is possible . mac : you 're right . that 's who she was . and it 's what she would have wanted from us . robert : and you know , if anything 's possible , maybe ... maybe she can hear us right now . wherever she is , maybe she can -- she can hear what we say . happy birthday , robin . mac : [ sighs ] happy birthday , sweetheart . we love you . duke : well , i should be forever grateful for you seeing faison under that mask . i owe you my life . olivia : i 'd say that 's the espresso talking . duke : no , it 's not . if it had n't been for you and robert unmasking faison , i 'd still be in switzerland , strapped to a bed , and i would n't have got anna back or the rest of my life . olivia , is something wrong ? olivia : i saw something . duke : are you having one of your visions ? olivia : it better be ! duke : what did you see ? olivia : i saw faison . duke : are you sure ? olivia : yes ! yeah , i 'm sure . i would know that nasty mug anywhere . duke : where did you see him ? olivia : right there . i saw him -- where that man is , i saw faison , and he was ... duke : and he was what ? what was he doing ? olivia : he was kissing anna . faison : you kissed me back . not scorpio , not lavery , but me . anna : yes , i did . faison : you return my feelings . i could feel it . is it possible you love me ? anna : yes , i love you , cesar . anna : excuse me . i 'm here to cesar faison . faison : i knew if i told you about robin , you would fall in love with me , finally . and you have . have n't you ? anna : ah . yes , i love you . faison : thank you . anna : i love you .

[ footsteps approach ] dr. obrecht : nathan ! i 've been asking to see you night and day . we have n't spoken since that katastrophe at the clinic . nathan : yeah , i 've been busy . dr. obrecht : surely you 've been worried about your mutter locked in some dingy cell . nathan : no , not really . look , i do n't really have much to say to you , liesl , unless you want to tell me why anna 's got you here . what did you do ? dr. obrecht : you mean to tell me the commissioner has n't regaled you with her fairy tales ? nathan : well , obviously not , which is why i 'm asking you . hey , you want to talk to your lawyer , do it in interrogation . sorry , detective . nathan : yeah . no problem . [ sighs ] dante : you okay ? nathan : yeah . just more , uh , family fun with my mother in lockup . dante : oh . nathan : what ? dante : nothing , man . you just look , uh , a little down . i was thinking maybe , uh -- maybe maxie did n't show up at the metro court or something . nathan : yeah , that . for a second , i 'd almost forgot about that . dante : come on , man . what happened ? lulu and i are dying to know . lulu : dante and i have been dying to know , did you go on the date with nathan ? maxie : i did . lulu : yay ! i told you there was nothing to be scared of . give me details . did he look handsome ? maxie : oh , like `` oh , my god , ca n't breathe , drop - dead gorgeous . `` lulu : yeah . that was a dumb question . oh , i bet he was a total gentleman . i bet he pulled out your chair . maxie : lulu , he spoke french . lulu : french ? maxie : it was amazing . lulu : naturally , he would speak french . maxie : oh , he 's fluent . he 's just too modest to admit it . lulu : what about the rest of the conversation ? everything flowed ... maxie : perfectly . i learned about him . he learned about me . lulu : like what ? maxie : well , him or me ? lulu : him . i already know everything about you . maxie : okay . uh , he likes `` the simpsons . `` lulu : you , too . maxie : i know . he used to watch them while he was doing his homework , and he loves his job . he says that it keeps him grounded . lulu : good . he 's really good at it . maxie : that 's what i said ! lulu : ohh ! i ca n't -- i ca n't describe it , but there was n't one awkward moment . lulu : this sounds like the best date ever . maxie : it really was . lulu : yay ! success ! maxie : it was an unmitigated disaster . epiphany : so , they have identified him ? jake what ? elizabeth : oh , we do n't know . we do n't really know about the whole jake thing , either . it 's just kind of a guess . epiphany : okay . now you 've lost me . elizabeth : well , he had this flash , and the name `` jake `` popped into his mind . he has no idea why , but he said it sounded familiar and it felt like it fit . epiphany : so , that 's what you 're gon na call him now ? elizabeth : for now . epiphany : well , maybe he 'll remember more when he wakes up . elizabeth : yeah , i hope so . must be so strange not to know who you are . epiphany : well , keep good thoughts . elizabeth : are you out of here ? epiphany : shift just ended . elizabeth : mm . hot date ? epiphany : well , as a matter of fact ... elizabeth : ohh ! epiphany : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : i 'm glad to hear you and milo are still going strong . he 's a very lucky man , epiphany . epiphany : well , i 'm feeling pretty lucky , too . elizabeth : have fun . epiphany : i will . [ chuckles ] hey . while we 're talking about love lives , what ever happened between you and prince nikolas ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] god , so , so much -- too much to explain in one conversation . short answer is we 're just not gon na be together anymore . epiphany : i 'm sorry things did n't work out . elizabeth : me , too . epiphany : well , you keep your chin up , okay ? life is full of surprises . you never know . love just might be around the corner . elizabeth : ohh . epiphany : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : go . patrick : come on . sam : i 'm -- i mean , i 'm not . i 'm not thinking about -- okay . all right . so , i may be thinking about silas . patrick : okay . so , let 's get it out . sam : it 's not weird ? patrick : what would be weird about it ? sam : i mean you and me . patrick : we 're friends , right ? that 's what friends do . we confide in each other . sam : okay . okay . all right . so -- so , on one hand , now that silas is suspicious of nina , i feel vindicated . i do . i was n't being spiteful or paranoid to have my doubts . patrick : but on the other hand ... ? sam : who cares ? i mean , what does it really change ? it really does n't matter anymore if silas is on to her or not . nina still managed to destroy my relationship . silas : in case you had n't noticed , i 'm kind of working at the moment . nina : yeah , but have you had lunch ? doctors need to eat , too . i 'm just suggesting some multitasking . that 's all . silas : [ chuckles ] you want to go at it in the hospital cafeteria ? nina : oh , come on . i 'm not an exhibitionist . but i 'm sure that we can find some unoccupied bed . [ laughing ] right ? let 's go make a baby , please ? unless you do n't want to make love to your wife . patrick : the way i see it , from what you told me about your conversation , it sounds like silas was reaching out to you . and , i mean , you avoided the question when i asked you . sam : yeah . i think you know me by now . i 'm good that way . patrick : okay . so , i 'll ask you again . what would you do if silas divorced his wife ? sam : i do n't know . to be honest , i - i really do n't know . and i - i ca n't even -- i ca n't even think about that right now because i am so pissed . milo : hi . i 'm here to see epiphany johnson . epiphany : good thing , because i 'm here to see you . milo : hey , you . epiphany : hey , yourself . milo : ready to go ? epiphany : yeah , as ready as i can be when you wo n't tell me where we 're going . milo : it 's a surprise , milady . epiphany : hmm . i love surprises . milo : good . come on . epiphany : i just hope i look okay . milo : you look incredible . you might be a shade overdressed . dante : ha ! i knew it , man . did i not tell you maxie was gon na show up ? nathan : what , is this about you now ? dante : yeah , of course it is . i encourage you to take a bit of a leap of faith here that she was gon na show up and surprise you , and she did . so , tell me how it all went down . nathan : what do you mean ? dante : what do you mean , what do i mean ? you were obviously sweating it out for a little while there , and then what happened after that ? nathan : what , do you want a play - by - play ? dante : well , you see , if i do n't give lulu updates , she 's gon na be pissed at me , and plus i 'm invested now , too , so ... nathan : all right . all right . so , i 'm sitting there , sweating it out , and i 'm about to go , and then i see her . dante : and how 's she look ? nathan : oh , god . it was the most beautiful thing i 'd ever seen . took my breath away . dante : wow . nathan : i know -- cheesy . dante : that is cheesy , but -- nathan : cheesy but true . dante : all right . well , good . anyway , that 's awesome news . lulu 's gon na be very happy when i tell her everything worked out for you two . nathan : except it did n't work out -- not even close . lulu : i do n't understand . a disaster ? maxie : an unmitigated disaster . lulu : how ? it sounded like the date was flawless , like you and nathan are perfect for each other . oh , that 's the problem , is n't it ? you felt like things were moving too fast ? maxie : no . that 's not it . lulu : you do n't want to be vulnerable to someone ? maxie , it is totally understandable that you would be scared after what levi put you through , but you ca n't let that stop you . maxie : okay , this has nothing to do with the loser who shall not be mentioned . lulu : it does n't ? maxie : no . the only thing i was scared of that night was the judge . lulu : wait , what -- someone was judging your date ? maxie : kind of . lulu : translation ? maxie : judge walters . lulu : the custody judge ? maxie : the one and only . lulu : he was at the metro court ? doing what ? maxie : having dinner , harassing nathan and me , not necessarily in that order . lulu : oh , no . maxie : and when he found out we were on a date , he said if we went on another one , i would never see my daughter again . silas : you 're right . no one would object to me taking a lunch . nina : good ! let 's go ! silas : b - but a quickie in the icu . is another story . nina : well , then , let 's find another floor . silas : it 's a hospital , nina . you ca n't do it anywhere . i could get fired . nina : that 's if your chief of staff were here , but she 's in jail . what my aunt liesl does n't know wo n't hurt her . come on . silas : it 's still a public place . nina : okay . that -- so is the on - call room at manhattan north , and it did n't seem to bother you back then . silas : things were different back then . nina : yeah , we were n't making up for 20 years ' lost time . silas : nina -- nina : no . no . i want you , i want you now , and i 'm not taking no for an answer . patrick : you 're pissed at silas ? sam : yeah . damn right i 'm pissed at him . i mean , why would i go back to him after everything i 've given up for him ? i mean , it 's embarrassing to even think about -- that i bent over backwards for the `` oops , i 'm not so dead `` nina , and i know it may sound insensitive , but it 's true . the man i was in love with moved his wife into his apartment . patrick : yeah , i remember . sam : you remember ? do you also remember how i sat there with a smile on my face while she interrupted every single moment we had -- how i was in the park , sitting there with a smile on my face , while he bailed on our picnic dinner to go deal with nina 's problems ? patrick : but we did have a good picnic , did n't we ? sam : yes . of course we did . i 'm not discounting that . but the fact that he put me in that situation just proves to me that , time and time again , he put nina first . patrick : to be fair , sam , it is a difficult situation for him . sam : yes , i agree , and it was something that was willing to deal with , and i think i did . i think i proved to myself and to him that i was ready to move on with my life . and i did . i mean , my god . i gave jason up for him . [ monitor beeping ] elizabeth : hey . jason : hey . you 're still here . elizabeth : yeah . is that a good thing or a bad thing ? jason : good . elizabeth : how are you feeling ? jason : fine . elizabeth : fine ? just -- just fine , with half your body in a bandage ? jason : well , i do n't really remember anything before , uh , i woke up , so i do n't have much to compare to . elizabeth : and what about the name ? does jake still feel right ? jason : yeah . it feels right , especially when you say it . elizabeth : then `` jake `` it is . jason : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : unless there 's something else you want me to call you . jason : no , no . first name 's fine . it 's just ... a last name would help a lot . elizabeth : yeah , i know . um , unfortunately , there has n't been any progress made on that . i did check with the front desk . no one 's called to see if you 're here . but that could mean a number of things . i mean , your family might not even know you 're here . you might have been visiting from another part of the country and they just do n't know where to look for you . jason : i guess we 're back to square one . elizabeth : not necessarily . there might be another way to find out who you are . nina : [ clears throat ] shh ! silas : what ? nina : he does n't know . nobody is here . silas : look . look . hey . hey . okay . all right . listen . we ca n't do this in here . anyone could walk in . nina : oh , well , that makes it better , does n't it ? come on . you need something . admit it . you do so many things for everybody else . you 're not doing anything for yourself . you need to just relax for a minute and enjoy yourself . silas : okay . it 's a nice thought but not here . nina : okay . well -- silas : nina , listen . stop . nina : oh , come on . silas : hey . stop ! nina : silas . silas : stop . patrick : look , i 'm sorry that i got you all fired up . sam : no , no . i am sorry . [ groans ] it 's just this thing with silas -- patrick : sucks . sam : yeah . pretty much , yeah . patrick : and i should n't have brought it up . sam : no . it 's okay . actually , i 'm glad you did . now i can kind of put it behind us and just focus on luke . that 's why we 're here . patrick : speaking of , where 's tracy ? sam : you do n't think she bailed on us , do you ? patrick : all we have is her word that she was gon na show up here . i mean , that could have been her plan all along . what if she told us this and then she went and met with luke somewhere else ? sam : well , this is tracy we 're talking about . her best event is double- crossing people -- i mean , especially her family . i do n't think she would think twice about doing it to us . [ bell jingles ] patrick : if she and luke bailed town ... tracy : [ sighs ] i 'm here . elizabeth : usually , the hospital waits a certain amount of time to see if the patient recalls something or to see if their family shows up . jason : yeah . if neither of those things happen ? elizabeth : then we have the police run their fingerprints . jason : oh , yeah . that again . mm . elizabeth : oh , right . not a fan of the police . jason : i just do n't think it 's a good idea . elizabeth : why ? what , are you , like , a big - time criminal or something ? jason : i do n't know what i am . that 's the whole point . elizabeth : you know you do n't have to have a police record to have your fingerprints on file . they print teachers and government employees , and , you know , it 's just an option . i kind of think it might be your best option right now , but it 's totally up to you . do you want me to call the station ? nathan : what am i supposed to do ? dante : i do n't know , man . i wish i could tell you . nathan : it 's like maxie and i are over and we have n't even begun yet . dante : yeah . walters is , uh -- he 's a piece of work . nathan : you know him ? dante : yeah . he was the judge in the case when lulu and i were fighting maxie and spinelli for custody . nathan : oh , that 's right . dante : you know , all i remember is ... four people ... cutting themselves open and bleeding all over that courtroom -- not that i 'm defending anyone 's actions , because it was bad all the way around , but this guy was unbelievable . i mean , he just sat there , completely detached , with zero compassion and zero empathy . all he did was dictate to us -- literally tell us -- how we should live our lives . nathan : which is exactly what he did last night . dante : well , there 's obviously a way around this . nathan : like what ? dante : well , you see her if you want to see her , even if it means you got to do it in private . what is he gon na do -- police you ? nathan : i do n't know . who knows with this guy ? walters is irrational . like , what if he has us followed ? dante : i think you 're being paranoid . nathan : look , all i know -- i ca n't be the reason that maxie ca n't see her daughter . they 've spent too much time apart already . lulu : that judge ca n't tell you what you do with your personal life . maxie : well , i thought he could n't , but , apparently , he can . lulu : legally ? maxie : well , he made his viewpoint very clear . i ca n't see nathan until my custody hearing rolls around again in december . lulu : so , what -- you ca n't see him for the rest of 2014 ? maxie : what am i gon na do ? milo : well ... what do you think ? epiphany : uh ... what i think is that we are in a boxing gym . milo : uh - huh . epiphany : what i do n't know is why . did you forget your wallet or something ? milo : no . i did n't forget anything . welcome ... to our date . nathan : whoa . hey . wait . whoa . whoa . what 's going on here ? dr. obrecht : what 's going on , son , is i 'm being released . nathan : you 're being released ? dr. obrecht : the commissioner 's 48 hours are up . clearly , she has nothing to charge me with . which means your mother 's free to go -- judge 's orders . nathan : i do n't believe this . dr. obrecht : it 's upsetting to know your superior would so easily abuse her power in that manner . dante : i 'm pretty sure that 's not what he meant . dr. obrecht : i was n't talking to you . nathan : yeah . that was not what i meant . dante : you know , dude , i got some paperwork i got to deal with , but i can stay here if you need me to . nathan : oh , no , no , no . i should , uh , deal with ... this . [ sighs ] dr. obrecht : good news , is n't it ? now you know i 've done nothing wrong . nathan : a lack of evidence does not mean you are not guilty . dr. obrecht : in the eyes of the law , it does . nathan : no . anna had you here for a reason . dr. obrecht : yes -- her petulant disdain for me . nathan : no . no . there had to be more to it than that . what was she gon na charge you with ? you do n't have to answer that . nathan : look , i 'm gon na find out anyway . you want me to find out from her or from you ? dr. obrecht : fine . if you must know ... i shot victor cassadine . i 'm the one who killed your father . maxie : nathan and i should be together , doing fun things -- really fun things . [ laughter ] like them . lulu : aww . they 're really cute , are n't they ? maxie : they are . and milo and epiphany look like they 're having the time of their lives . no one 's there telling them they ca n't . milo : ready ? should we get started ? epiphany : [ chuckles ] let 's do this . milo : all right . you 're gon na be a natural ! epiphany : [ groans ] milo : you 're gon na be a natural . i 'm telling you . epiphany : i do n't know . milo : let 's just start with some jabs . epiphany : well , what 's a jab ? milo : um ... it is a short , sharp punch . that 's the best description . epiphany : okay . milo : all right . with your left . yeah . i told you . see ? look at that . [ both laugh ] milo : you 're a natural . you 're a born fighter . come on . a couple more . good . breathe out . epiphany : [ exhales sharply ] like this ? milo : that was it . epiphany : like this ? milo : oh , my gosh . that 's it . couple more . couple more . one more . ow . [ both laugh ] milo : that 's awesome . great work . i 'll show you something else . epiphany : there -- there 's more ? milo : oh , yeah . that was just the warm - up . let 's get on the heavy bag . heavy bag is a great workout . it 'll improve your upper arm strength in no time . hands up . okay . now make sure to stay focused and pay attention to the bag . do n't let your eyes wander . epiphany : okay . milo : and make sure to pu - u - u - nch , pu - u - u - nch , not push , okay ? like this . see that ? epiphany : mm - hmm . milo : now ... keep your balance and stay focused . when you 're not punching , be sure to move your head around the bag . epiphany : okay . milo : all right . now let me see what you got . epiphany : [ clears throat ] milo : yeah . yeah , good . come on . what 's the matter ? gloves not on right ? epiphany : no , no . my gloves are fine . why 'd you bring me here , milo ? milo : i 'm not sure what you mean . epiphany : this is n't a date , is it ? you just want me to lose weight . nina : okay . there it is -- the complex again . silas : i 'm not trying to give you a complex . nina : what is it ? do n't you find me attractive ? silas : yes , i find you attractive . nina : oh , wait a second . i know what it is . it 's because i 'm out of the chair . it 's because i can walk , right ? silas : what does that have to do with anything ? nina : you just slept with me because you felt pity , did n't you -- the poor crippled girl in the chair ? silas : that 's not true . nina : no . now i do n't need the chair , and you 're done . silas : listen to me . you are beautiful in or out of the chair . that 's not what this is about . nina : what is it about ? oh . wait a second . i know . how did i not see this ? silas : see what ? nina : i 'm such an idiot . i 'm such an idiot . you 're cheating on me . silas : what ? nina : yeah , because if you do n't want it from me , you obviously are getting it from somebody else , so who ? ava jerome again , or are you sleeping with sam ? sam : where have you been ? patrick : we were worried you might have gone rogue . tracy : i 'm sorry i 'm late . on the way here , i saw this adorable little coffee shop , so i decided to stop in . patrick : did you say , `` coffee shop `` ? tracy : they had the most delicious - looking pastries in the window . i think they 're called -- what is it ? -- space cakes . patrick : you know , tracy ... tracy : what ? patrick : ... it 's not the same . amsterdam coffee shops are not the same as american coffee shops . sam : no . a coffee shop here is a place where they sell ... weed . weed . tracy : weed ? patrick : marijuana . sam : yes , marijuana . tracy : no ! sam : yes . patrick : those little pastries are filled with cannabis , tracy . tracy : so , if i ate one ? patrick : you 'd be high as a kite , so , please , tell me that you did n't eat one of those things . sam : come on , tracy . did you eat a space cake ? elizabeth : this is your life . you 've got to make that call . jason : i 'm just not comfortable involving the cops . elizabeth : do you have any idea why ? jason : gut feeling . elizabeth : you know i was kidding before about the whole criminal thing . i mean , you do n't really think -- jason : here 's what i know . i was hit by a car in the middle of nowhere with no i.d . nobody 's come forward looking for a jake or anyone who matches my general description . elizabeth : but there could be a lot of reasons for that , like i said . jason : we do n't know . and maybe it 's just better that it stays that way . elizabeth : so , you want to be kept in the dark about who you are ? you know what ? i kind of get it . jason : you do ? elizabeth : i do . the idea of a blank slate , a real chance at a complete do- over -- it 's tempting . i mean , not that i regret any part my life . i have two amazingly beautiful little boys , and i would n't give them up for the world , but ... jason : but ? elizabeth : you know , there are those moments when life 's at a crossroads , and if you just made a slightly different decision , who knows where i would have been or who i would have been ? and ... oh , my god . [ chuckles ] jason : what ? elizabeth : oh , my god . i - i do n't mean to be romanticizing what -- what 's happening to you . i am so sorry . jason : no , no . do n't be . elizabeth : no . that was really inappropriate of me . you have no memory of anything , and then i 'm acting like i 'm jealous . jason : relax . it 's -- [ chuckles ] it 's okay . it 's okay . you know , i had n't thought about it that way . thank you for that . elizabeth : you 're welcome . you know , that picture i just painted -- i 'm sure you 'd be a man without a past . jason : endless possibilities . elizabeth : could you really live not knowing where you came from ? what if -- what if you have a family ? what if your family misses you and loves you and wants you back ? would n't you want to go home ? jason : i guess it would n't be fair , would it , to leave them hanging ? okay . fine . yeah . let 's do it . okay . milo : i have no idea what you 're talking about . epiphany : no ? milo : no . epiphany : you 've got me on some kind of a stealth diet . milo : oh . what ? epiphany : this is part of some -- some scheme to get me to look the way that you want me to look . milo : i do n't even know what a stealth diet is . epiphany : okay . what about the other night , when i suggested pizza for dinner ? milo : yeah ? epiphany : huh ? i thought it 'd be a good idea because of your discount and all . but instead , you took me to the protein shack for -- for -- for skinless chicken ! milo : it was n't about you . epiphany : then what was it about ? milo : me . you know how sick and tired i get of eating pizza ? i eat it all day long . epiphany : fair enough . but why the protein shack ? you do n't like me the way that i am . you only asked me out so you could work your weight - loss magic on me . milo : you think i 'm trying to change you ? epiphany : are n't you ? milo : not even close . i took you to the protein shack because it 's where i like to go . it never occurred to me to try anywhere else . max is always on me about how i limit my options . that 's just the way i am , though . but if i made you feel like you 're not good enough for me , i am so sorry . it 's just the opposite . i worry all the time if i 'm good enough for you . and as for the way you look , you are beautiful inside and out , epiphany . that 's why i asked you out . i would n't change a thing . lulu : i ca n't tell you how bad i feel about this . maxie : you 're not judge walters . lulu : i know , but i 'm the one who encouraged you to go on this date , and now you 've had the rug pulled out from under you . it 's not fair . maxie : maybe it 's a sign ! lulu : that walters is a complete ass . maxie : that nathan and i are not supposed to be together . lulu : no , no , no . you are not giving up . maxie : lulu , i want to fight this , but i do n't know how . lulu : diane . maxie : okay . i thought about calling her , like , the second judge walters got up from our table . lulu : why did n't you ? maxie : because i do n't know if she could do anything . lulu : from what i 've seen , there is always something that diane miller can do . at the very least , you need to consult with her and find out what your options are . this does n't need to be the end for you and nathan . nathan : it was you ? you murdered my father ? dr. obrecht : i would n't call it `` murder . `` nathan : yeah , well , my boss is n't calling it `` self - defense , `` or she never would have held you here . dr. obrecht : please . the commissioner ca n't stand me . making me suffer is the icing on her pie . nathan : cake . and anna devane would never lie , regardless of how she felt about you . dr. obrecht : anna has her version . i have mine . nathan : which is ? dr. obrecht : i did it for you . nathan : you killed my father for me ? dr. obrecht : victor cassadine was a dangerous man . he threatened your friends , the people you care about . but even more than that , as long as he was in your life , i could never be certain you were safe . nathan : so , you killed him for my sake ? dr. obrecht : i 'm your mutter , are n't i ? nathan : yeah , and i really won the lottery in that department . first i get madeline , who puts my sister in a coma after a lifetime of lying to me , and then -- and then you up the ante by offing my father ? dr. obrecht : out of love . nathan : do you even hear yourself right now ? dr. obrecht : it 's the truth . i love you , schatz -- always have , always will . nathan : says the woman who gave me up at birth . dr. obrecht : because i had to . nathan : why ? you know , forget it . forget i even asked . it does n't even matter . i just traded one crazy for another . silas : i 'm not sleeping with ava or sam or anyone else , for that matter . nina : [ sighs ] you 're not ? silas : no . i just ... have a lot on my mind , especially when i 'm here . the minute i walk through those doors , it means something to me . nina : we had sex plenty of times in new york in the hospital . silas : first - year resident then . nina : you 're the chief of oncology . silas : my focus has to be on my patients . it 's -- it 's not because i 'm not attracted to you . nina : do you promise ? silas : promise . nina : when did i get like this ? oh , god . when did this happen that i got so insecure and needy ? i know when it happened . it 's what drove you to have the affair with ava jerome . silas : you did n't drive me to anything . i take responsibility for ava . that was my mistake , not yours . nina : are you sure you do n't hate me ?

helena : well , nikolas , you 're acting very strangely . has something happened to emily ? i warned you that if you continued -- nikolas : no , no , no , see , i warned you . you 'll leave here in a body bag if you do n't tell me how to save her . helena : i 've told you repeatedly , the way to save emily is to let her go . nikolas : well , see , now , we 're going to have a little bit of a problem because that 's not going to happen . helena : nikolas , you do n't want to hurt me . nikolas : tell me . how do i stop what you 're doing to her ? tell me right now . i 'm not messing -- [ pounding on door ] alexis : nikolas , what is going on in there ? helena : you 're the one who is killing emily now . if you love her the way you say you do , you leave her . alexis : nikolas ? nikolas : you 're not -- helena : nikolas , it 's the only thing that will save her . nikolas : telling me what i want to hear .

[ scene_break ] carly : you do n't -- you do n't know how many times i 've fantasized about this , about my father holding me . it 's like fate is playing a cruel joke on me or something . john : why would you say that , carly ? carly : because i ca n't be in your life , no matter how much i may want to . we can not have a relationship . i can not see you anymore . [ scene_break ] luke : you are one tough negotiator , cookie ! woman : you got that right . and i 'm smart enough to realize that i may have these smelly old rags , but you sure seem to want them . luke : all right , 50 bucks ! try to remember the last time you saw that kind of scratch . woman : it do n't matter . supply and demand . luke : you are squeezing my patience , woman . woman : well , then go buy the clothes off somebody else 's back . luke : i 'm sorry . i apologize . i 've had a rough decade . all right , here , look -- 73 clams . that 's all i got in the world . so if you do n't want the 73 , we 're both going to have to just move on . woman : say i make this deal . what am i supposed to do , walk around in my birthday suit ? luke : no , no , no , no , of course not , madam . i got you covered , from neck to ankles . and may i offer an unsolicited , masculine opinion and tell you that you 've got a lovely pair ? woman : ooh . well , then you got yourself a deal . luke : ok . woman : come on , big boy . help me with my buttons . luke : um -- woman : oh !

[ emily sighs ] elizabeth : i 'm sorry , that was -- that was insensitive . emily : no , no , i really do n't want to believe that helena can exert that kind of power . i mean , there has to be a logical explanation , right , like with anything else -- except that i 've been sick . elizabeth : ok , well , maybe you 're just still recovering from that spider bite . emily : well , according to the doctors , what i 'm feeling is n't physical . i mean , they 've run every conceivable test and there 's no medical explanation for what 's happening , but i keep getting worse . where 's the logic in that ? elizabeth : so maybe it 's just mind over matter . emily : that 's what your brother thinks . elizabeth : well , you should listen to steven because he really knows what he 's talking about . emily : i 'm afraid , elizabeth . i mean , nikolas is more furious than i 've ever seen him . elizabeth : oh , come on , that 's understandable . emily : he went after helena , and i 'm afraid of what might happen . maybe going up against this woman is a bad idea . elizabeth : so what are you saying , em ? emily : maybe we should just give this witch what she wants and forget about getting married . elizabeth : no . no , em , you ca n't give up . you have got to fight helena with everything you 've got . [ scene_break ] ric : nikolas , get your hand off . alexis : nikolas , let her go . she 's not worth it . ric : look , you 're not giving me any choice but to have to arrest you . helena : i -- i believe that -- that would be my choice . this is a family matter . i have no intention of pressing charges against my -- my beautiful grandson . i would like a moment alone with nikolas . alexis : that is a very , very bad idea . nikolas : you can leave us . alexis : are you sure ? nikolas : i 'm not going to kill her , if that 's what you 're worried about . ric : all right , come on . nikolas : i only want to hear one thing from you . helena : i 'm telling you what you need to know . whatever you think you 've learned about breaking the curse , i assure you that that 's only wishful thinking . if you pursue this , there will be only one outcome . your precious emily will die . lorenzo : why am i here , lansing ? one of corinthos ' warehouses blows up ; you automatically assume i 'm responsible ? ric : well , actually , i have n't checked into that yet . no , actually , you 're here on -- oh -- drug trafficking . [ scene_break ] sam : jason said he would be back hours ago . sonny : it 's nothing for you to worry about . sam : but i am worried . sonny , do you know the building is under surveillance ? sonny : it usually is . so what ? sam : but not by the pcpd . these guys are feds . i can spot one a mile away . wherever you sent jason , i 'm sure he was followed . sonny : jason knows how to spot a tail . sam : ok , so maybe he can drop it this time , but what about the time after that or the time after that ? sonny : sam , sam -- whew ! -- wait , wait , wait , just -- sam : no -- sonny : you need to just to relax . sam : sonny , guys like durant are relentless . taking down an organization like yours is the reason they breathe . and what happens ? jason ends up compromised because you ca n't tell your wife to stay away from her federal prosecuting father ? sonny : ok , ok , listen to me ! this may put your mind at ease a little bit . i already had this discussion with carly , and she 's agreed that it 's a risk to see her father and she 's going to stay away from him for now . sam : you think it 's going to be that simple ? sonny : well -- sam : huh ? my father was a deadbeat and a con who did n't have any use for me unless i was helping him run a scam , but it did n't mean that i was n't desperate for his love . you 're underestimating the connection between a daughter and a father if you think carly 's going to be able to walk away from this and never look back , never wonder , never wish . sonny , you need to end this , because if you let it slide and something happens to you or your family or to jason , it 's going to be on you . [ scene_break ] john : i really had high hopes for us . carly : so did i . but not at the expense of my husband . john : i promised you i would n't go after sonny . maybe you did n't understand , but you mean so much more to me than just another win . carly : maybe you mean that . john : i do . carly : oh , god , i hope you do . i really do . but i 'm trying to avoid the day that you have to go back on your word and the day that you declare war on sonny and i end up in the middle . i ca n't do that again . i 've been there before and almost lost everything . so as much as it pains me right now , goodbye . it was really amazing to meet you . john : carly , wait . carly : no , no . john : carly , wait !

[ nikolas mumbles ] nikolas : ok , this -- this talks about some kind of ritual . emily : mm - hmm . nikolas : see , a circle , the sun , stars . well , ok , something about swimming naked in a river . we 'll have to put that one on our list . come on . hey , come on . we 'll get through this , ok , i promise . emily : i know , i know . keep reading . nikolas : ok . here it is . here it is , the garden of aphrodite . seems to be connected to some -- yeah , some island in greece called kronosa . emily : does it say kronosa is tied to undoing the curse ? nikolas : um -- no , no , it 's not that specific , but i know one way to find out . [ scene_break ] luke : when i signed that letter , i did n't know my name . i was so pumped full of drugs , i did n't even know there was a letter until i was out of the hospital , over the wall , and the fog started to lift . skye : right , so you took off to go find a lead on to where laura was taken . luke : yes , i did . i went to the hospital . i thought i could pick up her trail maybe there . it 's all pretty vague , but i was sitting in a room and i was head - whacked from behind , and i when i came to , i was in a straitjacket strapped to the chair and my head felt like an overripe watermelon . skye : you were drugged all this time ? luke : yeah . my first moment of lucidity that i can recall was sometime last month . and i 've been trying to put the clues together as to who could be behind this , but they 're few and far between and hard to hold on to . the only thing that i know for sure is that the orderlies kept talking about a `` she . `` skye : helena . luke : it fits her gothic horror show flair , yeah . skye : well , what about the letter ? luke : the letter . one day , after an injection containing some very nasty surprises , they put a pen in my hand and they made me write a letter . i did n't know what i was writing , what i was doing , what i was signing , but i did it , i was so ripped . and then i totally forgot about it until i was out of there and things started to come back together and i started to follow your trial . i realized the damage i 'd done . i am sorry . skye : i knew there had to be an explanation . luke : oh , i 'm so sorry , blaze . skye : i know . i know . but then somebody starting sending me emails on the internet pretending to be you . they even used the evacuation numbers that we drew the night of the fire , so of course i bought that it was you . and then they asked me to meet them at the pier and i went . but instead , ric showed up . luke : a setup . skye : yeah . one of many , too many . i got to tell you , i 'm a little tired of being the designated fall guy here . luke : yeah , me , too . we both got axes to grind here . skye : luke , we have got to find out who 's doing this . luke : we will . we will , i promise you that . i got a really strong feeling that whoever is behind this is right here in port charles . we 'll find them . [ scene_break ] ric : skye had help . apparently , her accomplice pretended to be hit by the van , the driver got out . you can figure out the rest . edward : driver hurt ? ric : no , just rendered ineffective long enough for her and whoever was helping her to get away . edward : please , have your men try not to hurt skye ? i mean , she 's desperate . she 's not dangerous . ofc . serino : look what i found . ric : where -- where did you get that ? woman : some guy gave me 73 bucks to trade my ratty clothes for this fancy getup . ric : ok , what did the guy look like ? woman : a street dude , scruffy , like the rest of us . kind of cute , tall . a real smooth talker . heather : luke . [ scene_break ] carly : ok , sonny , hear me out , ok , before you blow a fuse . i just -- i need to tell you . i know i promised not to go see my father again , but i did . i went over there , and it was just to say goodbye . it was the last time -- sonny : carly , carly -- carly : and i know you probably do n't believe me . you think it 's just a pattern of lies that i 'm going to start and i 'm going to sneak off to see him at all times , but it 's not the case . sonny : carly , carly -- i know you 're telling the truth . carly : seriously ? sonny : jason was there . carly : in my father 's room ? what were you doing ? were you spying on me ? jason : spy -- no , i 'm not spying . i was looking for information , and durant came back early . i got stuck in the room . carly , i know -- i know what you said to him was hard . but breaking things off with durant is the right -- right choice . sonny : i 'm glad you told me . [ scene_break ] edward : you sounded so sure that luke was skye 's accomplice . how would you know that ? heather : it does n't take a detective to figure it out . remember skye 's heartfelt televised appeal ? she practically begged luke to rescue her . if he 's back in town , he must have seen it . the news station played it over and over again . ric : yeah , yeah , i agree , luke makes sense . skye was supposed to meet him on the pier when i caught her there . edward : it 's not a comforting thought . spencer 's nothing but trouble . keep me posted , please . ric : yeah , well , as long as the cooperation goes both ways . if you hear anything from skye , i expect you to let me know . otherwise , i 'm not going to be able to insure skye 's outcome . edward : it 's understood . ric : i want you to put an a.p.b . out on luke spencer .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i got here as soon as i could . what 's going on now ? emily : no need to panic . we 're fine . nikolas : yeah , we just need some information from you . so you said that mikkos took your mother away to break the curse , is that right ? alexis : right . nikolas : do you remember where ? alexis : not off the top of my head , no . nikolas : well , if i said it , would you recognize it ? alexis : possibly . nikolas : well , tell me if either of these two ring a bell -- the garden of aphrodite or the island of kronosa . either of those ? alexis : the island of kronosa sounds familiar . nikolas : ok , then that 's where i 'll start . alexis : you are not going to greece . nikolas : yes , i am , right away . alexis : absolutely not , nikolas . nikolas : i have to . it 's the only way that i can help her . alexis : lifting the curse turned out to be worse than living under it . helena murdered my mother , remember ? emily : i 'm not afraid . elizabeth 's take on this is right , the only way to overcome helena 's curse is to fight it , so we 're both going . [ scene_break ] carly : have i told you how wonderful you are lately ? sonny : hmm , not lately . carly : i mean it , sonny . really , you have been above -- above and beyond supportive and understanding with everything going on . you know , when i wanted to set out to find my father , you were so supportive , and then when it turned out he was a fed -- you know , you could 've drawn a hard line and forbidden me to see him . sonny : like that would have worked . carly : sweetie , that 's sort of my point . you know , i mean , you let me come to the right decision on my own . i 'm so -- i 'm so grateful . sonny : that 's because i know you . i know how you 're made ; what you think . that 's what happens when , you know , someone becomes a part of you . [ scene_break ] luke : what kind of a fiend thinks up a thing like tofu burgers ? skye : ew , no one i want to know . i mean , really , what is the point ? luke : i love that about you . you look like a pale , delicate flower , but you 're really a man 's woman . skye : what , because i can enjoy the occasional cheeseburger ? luke : no , because you travel well . skye : that might be the nicest thing you ever said to me . luke : no , it is n't . but you -- you 've forgotten . skye : well , i 'd be open to a refresher course . [ scene_break ] sam : thank god you 're all right . jason : i 'm fine . sam : no , i was so worried that sonny had sent you to do something , and i -- you know what , forget about it . it 's business . i 'm not going to ask you what happened . jason , it 's just that i left the building and i was tailed . i was followed . they 're watching us . jason : i know , i know , i know . they 're everywhere . it 's only the beginning . sam : ok , well , then can you tell me what 's going on , or -- jason : carly -- you know , she cut things off with durant , and he 's going to want to take it out on me and sonny .

[ sighs ] shawn : okay , i 'm listening . carly : there 's always a price to pay with sonny , okay ? you know , we 've had a big blowup , and sonny -- he 's not happy with me right now . shawn : okay , would n't he want to protect the mother of his sons ? carly : yeah , and that comes with a price tag , like bringing morgan home and a lot of other things . so sonny is not an option . i am not going to sonny . shawn : what 's the alternative ? carly : i 'll go to hawaii with you .

[ inhales deeply ] i know that you were -- are still grieving . i mean , you 've done an excellent job at moving forward , but , jason , i ... still see the sadness in your eyes . jason : well , i can tell you that it does n't honor jake to turn my back on life ... or close myself off from you . sam : i know . in that time when you were grieving , i thought that you might leave me . and i promised myself that i would love you enough to let you go . jason : you know i could never leave you . sam : i - i felt like i was trying to help , you know , that i wanted to fill that void so bad , but i 'm ... kind of glad we did n't get pregnant , jason . i do n't think either one of us was ready for that . jason : well , are you any clearer on what you want ? sam : well , when ... you were going into surgery , you said you wanted to live so that we could have a kid , if we were lucky enough to have one . do you still ... want a child ?

[ scene_break ] shawn : no , no , carly . you are not going to hawaii with me . carly : this is n't about going to hawaii with you . i do n't mean to hurt your feelings . this is about getting to hawaii -- most important , getting to jason . shawn : [ chuckles ] you just ca n't wait to barge in on his honeymoon , can you ? carly : this is n't about coming in between sam and jason . shawn : oh , really ? you could have fooled me . carly : why did jason hire you to begin with ? shawn : look , we established that , okay ? to protect you and josslyn from franco . shawn : right , why jason ? why not jax , my husband , the father of josslyn ? why not sonny , the father of my other children ? how come this man -- who i 'm not married to , who i have no children with -- why does he feel so responsible to take care of my safety ? shawn : because franco came after you to get to jason . carly : but why the franco connection ? i mean , if franco wants to get to jason , why does n't he just kidnap sam again or monica or edward or -- hell , why does n't he go after elizabeth webber ? it 's common knowledge that jason and elizabeth had an affair . shawn : yeah , i understand you 're important to jason , okay . it 's quite clear . carly : no , you do n't understand . see , what you think is that i 'm just some person who jason tolerates . someone that he just tolerates . and now that he 's gotten married , he 's dumped me on you . shawn : yeah , well , maybe that 's how you feel . carly : you know what you do n't understand ? when michael was born and i could n't touch him and i could n't hold him , jason taught me how to love my son . jason 's more than a friend . jason has held my hand to hell and back , and i 've done the same thing for him . you do n't have to understand my bond with jason at all , but you sure as the hell should respect it . shawn : okay , well ... point taken . carly : you know , franco is fixated on jason . he thinks they 're just alike . and jason ca n't stand franco . and so franco just tries to goad him , and he tries to go after jason 's weaknesses , okay ? now -- now , think about that . is there someone that you love so much that you would lay down in front of a train for them ? now , what if some psycho serial killer was going after that person ... and torturing them because of you ? shawn : look , i 'm not making light of what jason is up against . carly : no , you 're making light of my feelings . shawn : no , i 'm not . carly : and i get it , shawn . okay , i get it , because it 's -- it 's strange . but jason is necessary to my life . and -- and this is only gon na turn out two ways , all right ? first of all , franco could get to jason and he could kill him . so i lose my best friend . i lose my foundation . i lose my everything , and i 'm empty , and i 'm a lot less secure . and that scares the hell out of me . shawn : yeah , i -- i can see that . carly : and the other way this goes down is that jason loses someone he loves , okay ? and whoever franco takes with him , that 's a loss that jason will carry around forever . and it will make him care a little less every day about living , and he already cares too little as it is . shawn : okay , look -- i get it . all right , you want to save jason . but there are other ways to accomplish it that do n't include flying off to hawaii . carly : i 'm going with or without you , okay ! shawn : try to see it from my perspective . okay , i 'm going on reconnaissance . i 'm getting in , seeing what 's up , evaluate . i might not find nothing more than two happy people on their honeymoon without cause to take action . carly : fine , fine . and you can do that with joss and i there . shawn : now , look -- this is so bad on so many levels . look , carly , i work alone . okay ? i do n't drag women and children along to get in the way or distract me . i need to get in , assess the situation without jason or sam ever knowing i was there . carly : yeah , but do n't you get that ? if you can do that , so can franco . [ scene_break ] sam : i am pushing you . jason : no . sam : yes . jason : you 're not . sam : yes . if you ca n't answer that question without having to search for the words , then you 're probably not ready . jason : well , is anyone ever really ready -- i mean , to take full responsibility for creating a life , knowing that your kid 's life 's probably not gon na be perfect . they 're gon na get hurt , they 're gon na feel loss , and some of it might even be ... our fault . sam : ooh , ouch . you make parenthood sound like jumping off a cliff . jason : mm , it is sometimes . sam : not a fall you 're willing to take again ? jason : well , when i think about having a child ... it just seems too much to ask for from god . sam : you know what i can tell you ? the thought of having a child ... with you ... melts my heart . [ sighs ] but i think it 's okay that we just stay in the moment right now . jason : sounds good . sam : yeah ? in the meantime ... i 'm not opposed to practice ... practice ... practice .

[ scene_break ] patrick : [ sighs ] i had to see it for myself -- to know without a doubt that you 're still floating in your own ... personal hell . i know i should probably feel some compassion for you . but i do n't . all i feel is relief that you 're not a threat to my family anymore . and my wife can celebrate her birthday without having to look over her shoulder . what happened to you , lisa ? where 'd you go ? that girl i knew in college . i ca n't believe i 'm standing here looking at you like this and i do n't feel anything . not an ounce of loss or regret . actually , i do regret one thing . i wish i never met you .

'cause i 've seen you , and i can tell when you 've claimed ownership on a man . carly : what you think that i would do -- nice try , the whole insulting thing . nice diversionary tactic , but did n't fly . shawn : well , it did for a minute . carly : it 's not gon na work . shawn : carly , i 'm going to hawaii . you 're staying home . now , i 'll send security outside your house until i get back . end of discussion . carly : okay . shawn : are we clear ? carly : yeah , we 're clear . shawn : carly ? carly : we 're clear . you know , just make sure that you call me and update me . could you at least do that ? okay ? shawn : yeah . carly : oh .

[ scene_break ] sam : look at his cheeks ! they 're so big and cute , and his legs -- they 've got these muscles . and he looks strong . jason : he is strong , just like his mom . sam : i do n't know why john said that he looked like me . he looks like you . look at those eyes . he 's got big , blue eyes . jason : he is my nephew . sam : look at his smile . he smiles so big . he looks healthy . he looks really healthy . and happy . i think téa -- she took really good care of him . she must be in agony wondering where her son is . jason : okay , you need to concentrate on the good news . your son has been loved , been happy his whole life . sam : no , i know . i know that . and i 'm grateful for that . i mean , none of this is téa 's fault . jason : and i understand that it 's gon na be tough on téa . sam : téa calls him victor , right ? jason : yeah . sam : jason -- what is she gon na do ? she does n't even know her son is gone , that he died the night that he was born . i mean , i know what that feels like , having to grieve and go through that kind of agony , and no one should have to suffer like that . [ scene_break ] duke : you know , you could make this whole thing easier on anna . she does n't want to hurt your feelings . luke : i 'm not the one that 's gon na get hurt . duke : you know , quite frankly , i find your relationship surprising . luke : really ? more or less surprising than your sudden emergence from the grave ? duke : you know , anna and robert , they had a child together . their lives were intertwined , unhealthily sometimes . luke : for you , maybe . duke : yeah , it 's true . there was an occasion where robert got in the way , but in the end , anna chose me . luke : anna chose duke lavery , before he died . duke : so we 're still back to that imposter accusation , are we ? luke : i never left it . duke : while i was rotting away in a turkish prison , evidently , anna remarried robert , who -- i understand , is one of your best friends . luke : he was . past tense . a lifetime ago , literally . duke : still , i ca n't imagine he was too happy that you moved in on his ex . in fact , i understand you had a dust - up recently -- something to do with his son -- or was that your son ? anna did n't look exactly thrilled to see you once you walked in . luke : slim and i will work that out . duke : she 's my wife . luke : she was married to duke lavery before he kicked the bucket . duke : jonathan paget died in her arms . duke lavery is alive and well , as you can see . luke : [ scoffs ] okay . all right , for the sake of argument here , let 's just -- accept this premise . where you been all this time , mr. lavery ? duke : i 've already explained that to anna . luke : explain it to me . [ scene_break ] anna : i watched duke die . i -- first , there was a terrible explosion . i really did n't think anyone could possibly survive . mcbain : maybe he did n't . anna : he came back . he had a different face -- but -- he convinced me that he was duke . and then he was shot -- murdered . and i was holding him when he died . mcbain : but it was n't duke . anna : no . no . duke is alive . he 's alive . it 's crazy . he 's -- he 's waiting in my hotel suite right now . so that 's why you saw me standing in the hallway , staring at the wall . because i knew him . it was duke . after all these years , it was him . mcbain : okay . where was he ? anna : he was a prisoner . he , um -- he had a lot of vicious , powerful enemies . mcbain : powerful enemies . um , do -- do you want to say this , or do you want me to say it ? anna : it 's a weak cover story , at best , and there are gaps in this story that you could drive a truck through . mcbain : oh , it 's a big truck . it 's a huge truck . it 's a truck you have to go to truck - driving school to learn how to drive . and that does n't worry you ? anna : yes ! of course , it worries me ! you kidding me ? i had made peace , though , with everything -- with -- duke dying . i buried him -- at least , i thought i did . and i mourned him . and then i just locked away all those memories . you know , but i mean , uh -- a photograph or maybe a piece of music would bring it all flooding back . i just think about the time we had together . how much i loved him . they were just memories , though . until today . mcbain : okay , do n't slug me , but you sure you 're not seeing what you want to see ? anna : no , it -- it was more than just the way he looked and spoke . it was -- who he is . you know , it was something about him , and -- just the way he moved . and the things he knew ! what he remembered . mcbain : memories can be manipulated . anna : but i should know him . should n't i ? he was my husband . i do n't know . then luke came in , and the whole thing got really confusing , because i could hardly stand there questioning one man while the other man 's standing there . wanted to pitch him out into the hallway . you know what i mean ? mcbain : luke and duke . okay . look , i know you . i also know you 're a cop . you want to go find out if this guy is who he says he is -- and you know how to do it . [ telephone rings ] anna : yeah . devane . okay , great . yeah . good . thanks . okay . mcbain : where we going ? anna : manning got a phone call a short while ago from a room at the nite lite motel . it 's just off route 4 . it 's the kind of place you want to go if you do n't want to run into anyone inconvenient . know what i mean ? mcbain : heather webber . anna : yep . let 's go . mcbain : let 's go . [ scene_break ] heather : is todd double - crossing mommy ? what do you think ? do you think he 'd be leading the police right to our door ? nah . he would n't do that . he knows if i go down , he goes down . he 'll be here . it 's just a matter of when . but we have to get you your medicine . so what are we gon na do ? go get it or wait for uncle todd ? what do you say ? hmm ? [ scene_break ] todd : i came to this town to start over . get away from everybody that could n't stand me . téa : oh , wait . please do n't tell me you 're gon na call me out on the hypocrisy of despising you and then showing up on your doorstep when i 'm desperate . todd : i 'm trying to talk to you . i 'm trying to explain something to you . i -- sometimes -- sometimes , there are occasions -- rare occasions -- where i start to do something -- because i have the best of intentions , or what i believe are the best of intentions . and i did n't specifically start out to hurt you . in fact , i -- i was trying specifically to not hurt you . téa : is this still all about heather ? todd : sure . yes and no . téa : you do n't have to explain , and you do n't have to apologize . todd : i have to apologize , and i have to explain . téa : no , no . i understand why you hired her . you felt you owed her , because she helped save victor 's life . that 's how i felt . that 's why i hired her as a nanny . todd : what i did was way worse than hire her as a nanny . téa : how were you gon na know that she was a psychopath ? todd : how could i not know ? téa : if she hurts him , i do n't know how i 'm ever gon na forgive myself . how am i gon na forgive myself ? ! todd : can you just calm -- you need to throw some water on your face and calm down , because you are all freaking out like this . you 're not good to anybody . you 're not helping anything ! téa : i 'm gon na calm down . todd : okay ! téa : i 'm gon na calm down . todd : great . téa : okay . i 'm okay . i 'm gon na calm down . todd : uh - huh . téa : okay . i 'm gon na calm down . i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na calm down . calm down . i 'm gon na calm down . todd : i have to tell her it 's not her kid . but i ca n't tell her it 's not her kid . what the hell am i gon na do ? oh ! think ! think ! no . [ grumbles ] i have to be the one to tell her victor 's not her kid . if i do n't tell her , mcbain will tell her . then i 'll be arrested for kidnapping , go to jail for the rest of my life and never see starr . that wo n't work . [ grumbles ] ahh . [ gasps ] i got it -- i kill heather webber ! i go to the nite lite motel , and i kill her , and that 's kind of a win - win . and i take the kid , and i bring the kid to téa , and i say , `` hey , let 's get in the jet and gas it up and go to bora bora ! `` that 's it . we 'll teach the kid how to surf . oh , my -- never gon na work ! [ sighs ] i owe her a healthy kid . especially because i -- killed her husband , even though he totally deserved it . téa : i called the port charles police station , and i told them that i was -- todd : what do you mean you ca n't find heather webber ? ! how hard is it to find one measly psychopath ? ! i 'm paying -- what 's that ? you know where she is , and you 're just telling me now ? ! why -- hold on . okay . go ahead . tell me where she is . no , no ! just stay there ! i 'm -- i 'm , uh -- i 'm on my way . [ sighs ] great news . i found heather . [ scene_break ] olivia : i 'm so sorry , epiphany . obviously , you are not a psycho . far from it . i , on the other hand , i still -- i keep having these -- visions , hallucinations , or whatever you want to call them . so i -- epiphany : okay , let me take a wild guess here . you think you just saw heather webber . olivia : afraid so . [ scene_break ] sam : thank you so much for finding the pictures . what am i saying ? thank you for figuring out my son is alive . jason : you can thank me when you 're holding him . sam : what if that does n't happen , jason ? what if heather makes me suffer , and she does something really bad ? jason : i know it 's hard to wait . okay ? we got to try to fight the fear , do n't give in to it . you need to stay focused . your son is gon na need you . sam : he 's gon na need me , but , jason , he does n't even know me . he thinks that téa is his mother . jason : no , sam , you 're his mother . sam : what if the police do n't find her ? what -- what if he goes missing forever ? jason : sam , stop . you know how this stuff works . trying to outrun the cops on her own is hard enough , but with a baby , it 's gon na be next to impossible . somebody 's gon na see heather , they 're gon na call it in , and this thing is gon na be over . [ scene_break ] dante : i have some good news . got a lead on heather 's location . anna : police ! clear . [ scene_break ] heather : do n't worry . mama 's gon na get you your medicine , sweetie . [ elevator bell dings ] dante : it 's almost over , sam . pretty soon , you 're gon na have your son back . [ scene_break ] anna : we need to check places that she might have abandoned the baby , hate to say it . mcbain : heather 's not giving up the baby . she 's fixated on it . anna : where the hell did she take him ? dante : we are doing everything we can . heather : what are they doing here ? dante : apparently , the commissioner and mcbain are already on the scene . sam : wait . i want to go with you . heather : i 'm sorry , sweetheart . even perfect mommies panic sometimes . but do n't worry . i 'll get you your medicine . dante : look , i think she should stay here . sam : he 's my son . jason : you do n't want to provoke heather . she could hurt your son just to get back at you . dante : you know , i 'm gon na take the stairs . i 'll call you when i know something . sam : but -- [ scene_break ] todd : i 've had people looking for heather ever since she split ferncliff . téa : why ? todd : why ? because when they locked her in the looney bin , she blamed me , so when she flew the cuckoo 's nest , i was afraid she was gon na come back after me and , worse than that , go after starr . téa : so you had to find heather to protect starr ? todd : my people know she 's at the , uh -- some motel at the end of town . you stay put . téa : no , no , no ! what are you -- are you crazy ? ! she 's a dangerous psychopath . she has my son as a hostage . i 'm calling the police . todd : no , no , no , no , no ! you ca n't call ! téa : why not ? todd : because if heather even smells the cops , she 'll go cra -- crazier ! téa : oh , my god . you do n't think she 's gon na hurt my son . todd : no , we -- we ca n't take that chance , can we ? téa : okay , no police . todd : right . okay . you stay put . and before you know it , i will have little victor back in your -- téa : i 'm coming with you ! [ scene_break ] anna : oh , wait . yeah , this little green thing . this looks like the outfit téa said her baby was wearing . mcbain : okay , so we know she was here , all right ? i 'm gon na go canvass the motel , talk to the staff and any of the other occupants . anna : great . [ scene_break ] luke : mistaken identities , false imprisonment , witness protection , and , all the while , pining for the wife who had no idea our hero was still alive . it 's so touching ! and so finely calibrated to influence a susceptible heart -- in other words , a savvy woman who has just suffered a devastating loss . duke : are you suggesting that i 'm lying ? luke : you picked a hell of a time to do this , whoever you are . anna is really hurting from the loss of robin . duke : then it is a perfect time . what better time for me to be here to comfort her ? robin and i were very close . it 's as if she were my own . if things had worked out differently , the way that i had planned for them to work out , we 'd have lived together as a family . luke : oh , i doubt that . duke : then you are a fool . all of these years i was away , the only thing that kept me going was the memory of anna . when i got back here , and i saw her , and i looked into her eyes , i could see the memories for her were just as strong . luke : anna loved duke lavery , and she was married to him before he died . duke : a man named jonathan paget died , a man who was trying to take my place . luke : running the con , was he ? duke : exactly . luke : like you are now ? duke : my face . my life . what is this ? some elaborate scam ? luke : there 's only one reason to go through this much trouble , and that 's because the lie will get you more than the truth . duke : well , do you think i have something to hide ? luke : do you ? [ scene_break ] todd : i 'm not letting you anywhere near heather . she 's dangerous . téa : yes , she is , and she has my son ! i am going with you . todd : i feel like i can handle heather better , you know , on my own . téa : you need backup . todd : backup ? you 're backup ? téa : yes . todd : well , uh -- okay . no offense , counselor . you write a hell of a brief , but we 're dealing with an armed psychopath . you 're not the first call i 'd make . téa : it 's either me or the police . take your pick . todd : i 'll take the third option -- you wait here , and i 'll bring the baby back to you . téa : you listen to me ! this woman has my son ! he 's mine ! and nothing on this earth is gon na stop me from going with you to get him ! todd : okay , that 's a good idea . i 'm not sure if you exist , but if you do , please get delgado out of this with that kid . [ scene_break ] anna : dante ? yeah , i 'm a the motel room . heather 's not here , but this is definitely her place . she 's left a ton of baby stuff , so -- i 'm gon na assume she intends to come back . [ scene_break ] duke : i can account for every day of every year that i was apart from anna . luke : [ scoffs ] in that case , the record - keeping in the turkish penal system must have really improved . generally , inmates just disappear , especially foreign inmates . too bad that did n't happen to you . duke : it 's clear i 'm not gon na be able to convince you . luke : no , because it takes a con to see a con . duke : anna knows the truth . we 're soul mates . luke : oh . let 's see -- that means you are destined to be together eternally until someone drives a stake through your heart . oh , no . wait . that 's vampires . a different mythology . duke : did n't you have a great love once ? what was her name ? laura ? well , that 's like anna and me . why do n't you behave like a gentleman and -- leave us alone ? luke : whatever gave you the idea that i was a gentleman ? duke : i understand how difficult this is to give up a woman like anna -- believe me , i do -- but she is the love of my life , and i 'm the love of hers . luke : so you keep saying . duke : where is laura these days ? why do n't you go chasing after her ? that way you can leave anna and me alone . [ scene_break ] [ footsteps approaching ] mcbain : do n't shoot . anna : anything ? mcbain : no . but the desk clerk confirmed she checked in here with a baby . anna : [ sighs ] did she tell him how long she intended to stay ? mcbain : no . anna : anyone else see her ? mcbain : nothing . anna : well , she 's left all this stuff here . she 's definitely coming back . mcbain : unless it 's a diversion . in which case , she 's crazy , paranoid , and could be anywhere . [ scene_break ] olivia : when that door opened , it was -- it was heather webber standing there , not you . epiphany : well , i 'm happy to say that you were wrong . olivia : see , you do n't understand . these -- these visions that i keep having , they have a way of coming true . epiphany : so you 're psychic now ? olivia : see , about most things . like , for instance , that the late dr. keenan was really a bad guy or my cousin kate relapsing into connie . the fact that i saw heather webber in port charles meant she was here . the fact that i 'm seeing her in this hospital right now means that there is a very good chance that she 's actually here . epiphany : okay , um -- i just dropped by to let you know that there was a delay in radiology , and dr. webber wants you to stay here and wait for him , okay ? olivia : okay . [ door opens ] [ scene_break ] sam : i should have gone with dante . jason : heather hates you . she wants to make you suffer . if she has your son and then she comes face to face with you -- sam : you 're right , jason . i just -- i do n't like waiting . i want to find my son . i will do anything to find him . what happened ? dante : hey . well , i got as far as the parking lot and got a call from the commissioner . heather and the baby are n't at the motel , but the front - desk clerk i.d . 'd them and said their stuff is still in the room . sam : okay . well , that 's good . that means they 're coming back . dante : yeah , and when they do , we 'll be waiting for them . [ scene_break ] anna : so i got units stationed on all the blocks surrounding the motel . do we know that heather was driving , by any chance ? mcbain : clerk had no idea . the llanview p.d . e - mailed over a list of any cars reported stolen or missing in the last few days . hey . do n't move ! todd : okay . do n't shoot . [ scene_break ] jason : you got an address on the place heather 's using ? dante : i do , but for reasons we 've already discussed , i -- jason : yeah , but they can maybe use possible exit routes or places that she could hide . dante : i realize that , but heather 's not gon na be using safe houses and getaway cars . sam : do n't underestimate heather . i did , and i spent months without my son because of it . epiphany : detective falconeri , can i have word please ? dante : sure . what 's up ? epiphany : i 'm worried about your mother . dante : why ? epiphany : she had another hallucination while she was in the exam room . dante : is she okay ? epiphany : i thought she was till she told me she thought she was psychic . dante : we should be so lucky . [ scene_break ] sam : what if they missed heather ? what if she and my son are gone ? jason : heather is out of places to run . they 're gon na be waiting at the hotel . they 're gon na get her there , or they 're gon na pick her up on the road . [ scene_break ] dante : ma ? epiphany : i left her right here and told her i was gon na go check on dr. webber . dante : is he still down in radiology ? epiphany : that 's right . dante : well , that 's probably where she is .

[ door slams ] [ scene_break ] todd : what the hell are you doing here ? téa : where 's heather ? where 's my son ? anna : ms. delgado , i 'm commissioner of police . téa : how did you guys find out about this place ? mcbain : we had information that heather webber might be staying here . téa : oh , my god . this is victor 's . this is my son 's .

[ scene_break ] duke : anna would never allow her lips anywhere close to faison . i mean , what you 're suggesting -- anna kissing faison -- that 's ridiculous . first of all , she loathes the man , and , secondly , she 's in -- olivia : she 's in switzerland . she 's in switzerland with robert , right ? and -- and faison is safely locked away behind bars ? duke : right . olivia : so , what 's that look ? duke : well , this is faison we 're talking about , and , from personal experience , i know with him , anything is possible .

everyone is unable to find or save morgan after he 's driven julian 's car and it 's suddenly blown up . jason goes to find sonny who rushes to save his son , incapable and unwilling to believe what dante tells him he has to face up to , realizing there 's no way his younger brother could have survived this wreckage . he also concludes that the cause of this is very obvious . `` somebody `` clearly wanted to kill julian and installed the bomb in his car . he believes he knows it was sonny and his father has now murdered his own son because of his war with julian . julian returns home to ava , at first worried about covering his own tracks . however , he concludes the same as others believe about sonny and realizes that sonny will be in trouble with the police and is responsible for killing his own son . none of that worries julian but ava is emotionally devastated , realizing how she messed with morgan 's meds in order to make him lose it and convince kiki to break up with him . she privately relives her once - friendly relationship with morgan , all the times they 've spent together and her recent plan to hurt him . she breaks down crying , drinking and breaking things . meanwhile , sam goes to elizabeth 's house and they conclude they can get along and put past differences aside for their respective families . yet elizabeth warns her that she and all others need to accept that franco is a part of elizabeth 's life . at that point , sam angrily tells her and tells franco she will never be ok with him anywhere near her or anyone else she cares about . at that point , jake overhears their argument , comes out of bed and asks why sam and others so dislike franco . franco then takes the boy aside and explains how he was once `` not a nice person `` due to an illness . both women listen intently as franco communicates with jake about how he wants to be a good man and not hurt people anymore . jason then comes by and informs them what has happened and everybody is very upset . sonny returns to carly , who up until now , has suspected nothing . they are both distraught and devastated over the loss of their son .

patrick : you 're -- uh -- planning on having a baby ? robin : why are you surprised ? oh , okay , let me answer that -- because you do n't listen , ever . patrick : with some random guy on a list ? robin : it 's not random . this is a list of men who possess qualities that i would like to see in a father . you will notice you 're not on it , so do n't give it another thought . patrick : robin , this is the craziest thing i 've ever heard . robin : well , whatever it is , it 's none of your business . patrick : yeah , it is -- you 're doing this because of me . [ scene_break ] sonny : i think johnny zacchara killed leticia , and his father , anthony , is , you know , covering it up for his lunatic son to make it look like the act of a serial killer . max : well , that could explain why jerry jacks took a knife in the chest . sonny : you know what , max ? things have n't been this unstable in a long time . i want -- i want everything -- we need to be prepared . i want a tightened security around my family . max : consider it done , boss . boss , can i offer an opinion ? sonny : yeah , i 'm listening . max : maybe it 's time we send zacchara our own message . sonny : you want me to take out trevor lansing . [ scene_break ] trevor : lansing . oh . are you positive that he has john ? absolutely not . anthony ca n't know this . [ scene_break ] jason : carly , you were never here -- go . carly : i 'm not going anywhere until i get some answers . why 'd you take pictures of me and my husband ? for your own perverted pleasure , or are you trying to send me another message ? johnny : and they call me crazy . carly : if you do n't start talking , i 'll show you crazy . [ scene_break ] robin : of course . you and your enormous ego would think that every decision i make has to do with you , but this time you 're wrong . i 'm having a baby because it 's what i want . patrick : all of a sudden ? robin : it 's not all of a sudden . if you paid any attention at all , you would know that . patrick : look , robin -- robin -- hey , look , i 'm sorry -- i 'm sorry we broke up , i 'm sorry i hurt you . obviously , i did n't realize how big of a blow it would be . robin : what did you just say ? patrick : you -- you realize why you 're doing this , right ? you 're trying to fill a void -- that 's where this desire for a child is coming from . robin : to fill this big , scary void in my heart that you left ? oh , you -- your arrogance knows no bounds . okay , let 's try this again . my decision to be a single mother has nothing to do with our breakup , okay ? it has been building since i thought for five minutes i might be pregnant with your child -- a thought that clearly horrified you . patrick : okay . what about the potential guys on this daddy list ? how do you think they 're going to feel ? robin : well , not your problem -- you 're not on it . patrick : okay , well -- so , um , sonny and jason and andy are crossed off . what about nikolas and jax and -- `` spinelli `` ? robin : spinelli 's a genius . patrick : you got to be kidding me . spinelli has no social skills whatsoever . you really think that 's father material ? he can barely tie his own shoe . robin : well , then it 's a good thing i 'm only looking for a little dna , right ? patrick : so what are you going to do , just go around asking for donations ? robin : oh , my -- you do n't want a baby . you 've made that perfectly clear to me and everyone else that cares . and , of course , that is your life , that 's your decision , that 's fine . but please respect my decisions . i want to be a mother , and that does not make me crazy or desperate . holding on to a dead - end relationship in spite of what i really want -- that would make me crazy or desperate . and you know what ? i do n't even blame you . i 'm grateful to you , actually . when that test stick turned blue and we realized that the pregnancy was false , you practically did back flips , and in that moment , everything got real clear to me . no matter how much we 've been through , no matter how far we 've come , you still want open options . i do n't . i 'm ready to commit to something bigger than myself , so i 'm doing it on my own terms . this conversation 's over . leo ? uh -- are you free for drinks tonight ? i have something important to discuss with you . [ scene_break ] scott : so , what have we got here ? when did you all of a sudden become father goose ? do n't you think it 's a little late to start policing who your daughter goes out with ? luke : oh , yeah ? this from a man who tries to police the life of a woman who has n't loved him in three decades ? scott : this has nothing to do with laura . luke : this has everything to do with laura ! you had no relationship with you son for over 20 years , and now you 're trying to use laura 's daughter to make it up to him . scott : lulu and i made a little deal . luke : you played on her vulnerability , you dangled my freedom and her mother 's guardianship in her face and tried to bully her into going back to him a second time ! scott : you 're wrong , as usual . of course , why would i expect you to know anything about your own daughter ? she wants to get back with logan ; i am merely giving her the opportunity . [ scene_break ] logan : can i get you anything ? look , if we 're going to make this work , we got to -- we got to be really , really honest with each other -- even if it 's painful . what i 'm saying is i do n't want you to pull any punches with me -- not that you would . you know , if there 's stuff you got to -- you got to get out , go ahead and say it , i can take it . lulu : you made a fool of me . and i hate knowing that you 're capable of that , and i hate that i let you . and just so we 're clear , if scott had n't made me an offer that i could n't refuse , i would n't be here . logan : that 's fair enough . but , lulu , i mean , the deal 's done . you know , your parents are off the hook ; nikolas has been reinstated as your mom 's guardian . you can walk right now . lulu : i have this annoying little quirk -- when i give my word , i stick to it . logan : huh . lulu : i promised you an honest second chance , and that 's what you 're going to get . but it does n't mean that i 'm going to forget what you did , how you broke my trust . and when i think of all the people that told me to stay away from you and to protect my heart , and instead of listening , i defended you , and i told my friends and my family that you were this decent guy , and underneath all that macho crap , you had some sensitive soul it 's not going to be that easy for me to trust you again . logan : which begs the question , are you really here to give us another shot , or are you just looking to pay me back ? [ scene_break ] kate : sorry for interrupting . sonny : actually , we 're -- we 're finished . we 'll talk later . max : got it . [ door closes ] kate : i probably should 've knocked . sonny : that 's probably a good idea . kate : mm - hmm , you 'd think i 'd learn that by now . but the fact remains i did n't , and i ca n't pretend i did n't hear what i heard . sonny : well , max and i were just , you know , discussing the best possible way to protect the people that i love . kate : and your solution is killing trevor to send a message ? sonny : do you -- kate , do you want to have this conversation with me right now ? [ scene_break ] jason : just calm -- calm down . carly : that 's not going to happen . johnny : this good cop / bad cop routine you two work -- it 's cute . i 'd like to see where it 's headed , but if i do n't show my face in a few hours , things are going to get ugly -- if you know what i mean . carly : why do n't you stop making threats and tell me what i want to hear ? johnny : i did n't send you any text messages -- you contacted me , remember ? pretended to be lulu so i 'd meet you ? carly : what about strangling an innocent woman ? is that your idea of a good time ? how 'd you do it ? how 'd you kill leticia ? what exactly did you use ? johnny : i did n't use anything because i did n't kill anybody . carly : you 're a liar ! jason : okay , that 's enough . carly : yeah ? jason : that 's enough , stop . carly : jason wants me out of here . things are going to get ugly -- if you know what i mean . johnny : if you brought me here to kill me , get it over with . [ scene_break ] scott : you know , i hate to burst your bubble , spencer , but this is n't about your family , it 's about mine . i 've got a lot of lost ground to cover with logan . luke : well , you 're not going to pimp my daughter in order to ease your own conscience . scott : well , you know what ? you 're missing the point , as usual , you rummy . now , if lulu did n't care about logan , she would n't have taken this dl . luke : lulu cares about her mother . this is low , even for you . you -- you profess this undying love for laura , and then you push her daughter into the arms of your little bastard -- the same little bastard that broke her heart ? scott : look , he 's not the first guy that 's made a mistake with a girl that he cares about -- you , of all people , spencer , should understand that . so why do n't you just stick to the tried and the true and focus on your own selfish self -- and stay out of my son 's business ! [ scene_break ] lulu : trust is n't something that i give out easily or freely . maybe it 's genetic , something that i 've inherited from my father . he loves me , and on some level i 've always known that . but he 's always had one foot outside the door , and it 's made it very hard for me to keep the faith . logan : i can understand that . lulu : i thought that you could , but , obviously , i was very wrong . opening up to you was a very big deal , logan . and when i found out that all we were was just some bet that you had made with maxie , i ca n't even tell you how betrayed i felt . i could n't find the words , so i shut down . logan : okay , you know that i -- i did n't know you when i made that deal . lulu : and i know that in my head -- just like i know you regret it -- logan : i do -- lulu : just like i know that maxie was trying to hurt you just as much as she wanted to hurt me when she told me about it . but something se i -- i got from my dad was a strong sense of self - preservation . i miss you , but i do n't trust you . and it 's going to be really hard to take that leap again . you know what ? i ca n't be here . logan : lulu , just wait -- just -- lulu : do n't push it , okay ? [ scene_break ] [ door closes ] lainey : how have you been ? cody : i 'm off the pills . withdrawal was no fun , though . lainey : i 'm sorry . cody : i would n't recommend being locked up for murder as a form of rehab , but it works . lainey : yeah . cody : i 'd also like to think if i ever got out , that i would n't pick up again . but we both know i have a tendency to lie to myself . lainey : you have posttraumatic stress , and you wanted drugs as a way to manage it . i could -- i should have been way more helpful . cody : this is starting to sound like an apology . i 'm guessing it 's not going to be possible to pin your father 's death on jolene crowell after all ? lainey : i do n't know . jolene has a sister who came to see her . this woman , nadine -- she 's a nurse , and apparently , she 's joining the staff at the hospital . cody : and this nadine is n't -- is she going to object to having her sister charged with yet another murder ? lainey : just because someone 's on life support and they have no chance of recovery does n't mean that you stop loving them . you -- you want to preserve their dignity , you want people to know that their life had meaning and worth . so , yes , i do think that nadine crowell will step up and defend jolene . and because i have no idea where jolene was at the time that my father died , i do n't know how to -- how -- cody : your father died because i turned off his life support . i knew what i was doing , and i 'm fully prepared to pay the consequences . [ scene_break ] jax : okay , i need the truth about who stabbed you . jerry : i told you -- nikolas cassadine . jax : and i 'm supposed to believe you because you 've been so honest with me in the past ? jerry : jax , what would be my incentive for lying , honestly ? jax : i do n't know -- maybe some misguided effort to keep the peace with these zacchara people . look , i need the facts . if you were stabbed by someone in zacchara 's organization , that means the truce that i brokered is n't holding . jerry : zacchara will honor the truce as long as he finds you useful , and then all bets are off , and then there 's really no way to find out where he stands , is there ? in any event , if zacchara wanted to plant a knife in my chest , his word to you or anyone else would n't matter . i already told you the truth -- nikolas stabbed me , and here 's the kicker -- he does n't even remember .

[ scene_break ] jason : you do n't leave until you tell me about leticia . johnny : you 're messing with things you do n't even remotely understand . jason : so explain it to me ! johnny : if i 'm not returned soon , the very people you 're trying to protect could wind up dead . jason : who 's going to hurt them ? you ?

[ scene_break ] dominic : i grew up without a father . literally , my ma does n't know who the guy is . to me it was n't so bad . i had a crapload of uncles and cousins , and if anything , there were too many people around , you know ? i come from a very boisterous ... opinionated clan . sometimes it can be a bit much . lulu : somehow that does n't surprise me . dominic : there was one guy i related to the most . see , it was n't a family member . mr. poletti . he was my best friend 's dad . and , i do n't know , maybe he felt sorry for me or something , but ... he would include me in whatever he did with his own kids -- baseball games , camping trips -- you name it . i mean , he really went the extra mile to make sure i had that father figure in my life . lulu : he sounds like a wonderful guy . dominic : yeah . yeah , you know , right up until the day he was murdered . everyone knew who gave the order , too . one guy and one guy only ran our neighborhood . but no one came forward . it was like ... mr. poletti 's death was what was ... supposed to happen . or something , i do n't know . anyway , i was in the street playing stickball , shortly after we buried him , outside this restaurant . this big long , black limo pulls up , and this man in a perfect suit gets out . the whole street goes still . everybody just stared in awe at the man with his fancy clothes and his aura of power , like he was something to respect . and everyone knew that he ordered mr. poletti 's death , but it did n't matter in the face of all that , i do n't know , what , charisma ? for just a second i thought , i could run up to that guy and cold - cock that bastard in the head with my stick , but ... he always had bodyguards with him . i never would have got close . but it 's interesting now , you know ? things come around . all these years later ... i 'm finally getting close . lulu : so that 's it , then . the reason that you 're in the mob . you want to avenge the man that loved you like a father . [ scene_break ] claudia : well , do n't stand there in the doorway . why do n't you come in and tell us why you just sounded so ominous . michael : look , i know why you guys called me over here . sonny : why is that ? michael : 'cause you found out about what happened between kiefer and i . so what am i in for ? you gon na lecture me ? take away my car ? sonny : can you give us a minute ? claudia : yeah , sure . do n't be a stranger , michael . michael : look , dad , i know i screwed up . sonny : i do n't care about kiefer . i do n't give a damn if you went off on that jackass . michael : you do n't ? sonny : he 's -- look , i 'm not impressed with him . it is kristina 's first boyfriend , am i right ? michael : as far as i know . she never mentions anyone else . sonny : i do n't like him . he 's smug , he 's self - entitled , and he 's bad for her , right ? i can smell it . and if he ever does anything else to kristina , if he mistreats her in any way , it 's your -- you know , it 's your job as her brother to step in . do you understand ? michael : absolutely . sonny : okay , but that 's not why i called you over here . your mother and i are concerned because beating up on kiefer was n't premeditated . you lost your control . so ... i want to see if maybe i can help you out . michael : i wish you could , dad . but i do n't know how . sonny : maybe i can teach you ... what i 've learned about trying to deal with my own demons . [ scene_break ] dominic : yes , mr. poletti is the reason behind a lot of the decisions i make . lulu : so what 's the plan ? you gon na hope that sonny will help get revenge against the person who killed mr. poletti ? dominic : close enough . lulu : are we talking about anthony zacchara ? dominic : no . lulu : [ sighs ] dominic : well , you seem strangely happy to hear that . lulu : um ... no , i mean i -- i -- i hate anthony zacchara . i hate him . um , i just -- i would n't want you to go against johnny . if it got complicated into that -- sometimes things do -- dominic : no , i have no desire to he 's actually okay . he one of the only wise guys i 've met that is n't responsible for choosing people for a living . lulu : that -- again , see , that 's the second time you 've talked about the mob like you hate it . at first i did n't understand it , i could n't figure it out , but now i think i get it , you know ? you got into this business because you want to ... avenge the man that loved you like a father . dominic : yeah . so ? lulu : well , i 'm just saying , you know , i think you should ask yourself if this is something that mr. poletti would have wanted . [ scene_break ] sonny : we have -- we have two ... very different conditions . i 'm bipolar , and you 're suffering the after - effects of a brain surgery . but i think they overlap . michael : how ? sonny : how ? you 're n a room full of people who love you . everything seems absolutely normal . somebody says something to you , somebody gives you a look , and you just go into a full - blown rage . michael : that 's exactly it . sonny : right . and i know what it feels like when that -- when that anger goes away and all you have is hurt and pain , and people who love you look at you confused because they just -- they want to help you , but the truth is they ca n't . and then you feel bad because you went off and you lost control , and that puts you in a dark place , and you 've got that anger , right here , just waiting to blow up again . huh ? michael : that 's amazing . i did n't -- i did n't think there was one person in the world who could understand that . sonny : that 's what i 'm trying to tell you , son . you 're not alone , okay ? i know where you 've been , and , uh , there is a way out . michael : what does that mean ? you got help with medication . i do n't have that option , you know ? there is n't anything that 's gon na stop those rage attacks or make me stop remembering . [ scene_break ] sam : let me get this straight . you found the evidence box with devlin 's personal effects ? jason : yeah , after you and lucky left . sam : and the micro - recorder ? jason : yes . but no tape . but there was an accessory that allows you to record phone conversations . sam : okay , well , with that and the recorder , it 's quite possible that devlin taped everything that he did here in port charles . was there an evidence log ? jason : yes , but no mention of recordings . you know , it 's funny , because the paperwork actually looked good . the cops were really thorough . sam : well , that does n't make any sense . there was a recorder and no recording ? jason : well , maybe ... maybe devlin put it away someplace safe for later . sam : yeah . maybe even a recording of claudia ordering the hit that put michael in a coma . sam : if we are right and ian recorded his business conversations for handy blackmail , where would they be ? jason : i do n't know . i 'm gon na have spinelli hack into devlin 's bank records again . maybe he had a safe deposit box that we missed . sam : oh , fun . we get to break into a bank . [ chuckles ] jason : hold on . sam : what ? jason : if there 's any bank needing breaking into , i 'm not gon na let you do that . sam : you could just smile and say thank you . try it . smile . jason : no . sam : come on . smile . there you go . it 's nice . sit down .

[ scene_break ] lulu : so you still have n't told me what you think about brenda . brenda : do you have a lot of experience as a bodyguard ? dante : oh , yeah , tons . i used to look out for my cousin . i used to beat up any guys who would mingle with him . i also guarded the kentucky derby winner one time on the way to the belmont . brenda : so you guarded a horse . dante : yeah , it was a pretty critical assignment . i mean , that nag 's hooves were worth more than i 'll make in a lifetime . brenda : how is that horse , alive ? dante : yeah , it broke the track record the next week . brenda : hmm . feel safer already . [ dante chuckles ] [ scene_break ] sonny : you okay ? brenda : yeah . ahem . i was surprised to see dante here . sonny : you seem to have made a real impression on my son . [ brenda chuckles ] [ scene_break ] lucky : remind the balkan that the last time he sent his men to teach me a lesson , they ended up dead in an alley much like this one . so he can keep sending 'em , and i can keep killin ' 'em , starting with you if you like . swavek : i 'm helping you out here . brenda barrett has to be dealt with . if you wo n't do it , the balkan have no further use for you . lucky : what , does he expect me to just walk up and kill her in front of the paparazzi ? forget it . swavek : no one 's asking you to kill the girl . your job is to find her and grab her , and wait -- siobhan : get your stinkin ' hands off me , you filthy maggot ! swavek : hello , sweetie . you got 5 seconds to explain yourself .

[ scene_break ] lulu : so what is brenda like ? dante : well , you know , you 've seen her pictures and stuff . lulu : yeah , but airbrushing can fix a multitude of sins . i was kinda hoping she would have bad skin or gross hair or something just to make her normal . dante : no , she 's beautiful . i mean ... look , no one is as beautiful and sexy and desirable as you are . lulu : okay , well , i still would like to know about her . is she -- dante : why ? lulu : well , because everybody makes her out to be this crazy legend . you know she was the `` b `` in `` l and b records , `` brook lynn 's mom 's partner . dante : i did know that lois had a partner , but i did n't know it was brenda . lulu : yeah , that was back when she was the love of sonny 's life , and now here she is a model . dante : well , you know , she 's a model . she 's nice enough . she 's obviously got some kind of connection with sonny . lulu : did she know about you ? about you being sonny 's kid ? dante : he must have mentioned something to her about me , but then she found out i was investigating and then she wanted me to turn the other way . so she 's clearly all about protecting sonny . lulu : oh . poor dante . it 's bad enough that you have to hear it from your brothers and your sister and half the town , but now you got some woman you just met defending sonny .

oh , so many things . it 's -- it 's hard to know which thing i want most . jason : heather -- what will it take for you to give us the baby ? buying this juicer online was unbelievable . duke : it was far from pleasant with anna , initially . dr. obrecht : well , i 'm sure she was shocked to see you alive . duke : [ scoffs ] it was a lot for her to take in . it was more than that . she did n't believe me . she thought i was an imposter . she threatened to arrest me . dr. obrecht : how ironic . duke : but after a while , she did believe me . we were on the verge of a -- a wonderful reunion . dr. obrecht : what stopped you ?

luke : i know it sounds crazy . tracy : no , i 'll tell you how it sounds . it sounds like you 're hammered . luke : i wish i were . that glass belongs -- to the guy who 's calling himself duke . tracy : huh . and what inspired his return to port charles after years of being dead ?

why ? mcbain : because we know an hour ago heather webber called todd 's phone . heather : do n't listen to them , binky . because i 'll never let you go . you hear me ? never . jason : things will be a lot easier if you just give me the baby right now . heather : what do you want me to do ? hand him over like he 's a sack of potatoes ? stop ! just stay back . jason : it 's okay . it 's fine . sam : just to be so close , to be able to touch him -- he belongs with his mother . heather : then he 's literally in the right hands . because i 'm your mommy now . right , sweetheart ? and we 're gon na be together forever . yes , we are . todd : can you believe this ? you -- you tapped my phone ? anna : no , that 's not accurate , mr. manning . we merely pulled your records . todd : oh , yeah , you 're right ! that 's completely different . tea : i do n't suppose you had a warrant . anna : given the urgency of the matter -- tea : you just thought , `` what the hell ? let 's break the law `` ? todd : i feel violated . i feel like my constitutional rights have been violated . i -- i should sue . mcbain : you should sue . and you know what ? you 're gon na have plenty of time to prepare a case from prison . tea : what are you talking about ? why would todd be going to prison ? anna : ms. delgado , surely you understand a baby 's life is at stake here . tea : you honestly did n't just ask me that . anna : we did what we thought we should do , and because of that , we now know that heather was in contact with mr. manning . tea : how ? you did n't hear the other end of that conversation ! how do you know it was heather who made the call ? anna : john , how do we know ? mcbain : it came from the land line in this room . olivia : [ groans ] epiphany : what happened ? dante : take care of her . olivia : go , honey , go ! epiphany : do n't move . i need to make sure you did n't break anything . what did i just say to you ? ! olivia : i was right ! heather webber 's here ! she 's in the hospital ! epiphany : oh , dear lord . olivia : i tried to stop her , but she ran up the stairs . epiphany : with the baby ? olivia : yes , with that sweet little baby boy ! jason : no , just stay back . do n't provoke her . heather : i should have taken this little one the first night i saw him . i mean , it would have made things so much easier . jason : the child you 're holding does n't belong to you , heather . sam : there 's no way off this roof . only through that door . we 're not letting you leave until you give us the baby . heather : you 're forgetting one major detail . i 'm the one holding this little bundle of joy , and possession is 9/10 of the law . so why do n't you just move aside and let us go ? jason : you would have to kill me first . dante : what 's the problem here , heather ? duke : i 'll say this much for spencer -- he has impeccable timing . my arms were wrapped around anna when he burst through the door and ruined everything . dr. obrecht : i warned you mr. spencer would be an obstacle . when he tracked ms . devane to the clinic , his efforts to help her were quite heroic . duke : i was there . dr. obrecht : i 'm just saying . duke : what exactly are you saying ? dr. obrecht : mr. spencer arrived . what happened then ? duke : anna left shortly afterwards . dr. obrecht : i imagine the situation was somewhat overwhelming . duke : i was sad to see her go , but i was glad to have some time with luke . i asked him to bow out . dr. obrecht : and ? duke : he refused . which means i have a fight on my hands , one that i 'm perfectly prepared to win . tracy : so , this man -- luke : jonathan paget . tracy : -- pretended to be duke lavery . luke : yeah , while the real one was holed up in a turkish prison . he should only stay there . tracy : mm . that 's a tad insensitive , do n't you think ? luke : not after the homecoming i 've had . tracy : so dead duke wants anna back . luke : yeah , but this presupposes that the guy who claims to be dead duke really is . tracy : well , assuming that he is duke , does that mean that their marriage is still legal ? anna remarried . luke : twice . tracy : [ laughing ] oh ! but who 's counting ? luke : so the ghost says he still loves her , they 're still married , i should step aside so they can resume this magical experience that they had together before he kicked the bucket . tracy : to which you replied ? luke : guess . tracy : oh . lukey has competition . luke : with a cadaver . i would n't be surprised if he challenged me to a duel at dawn for the maiden 's heart . tracy : or , this being the 21st century , anna could choose the man she wants . which one do you think that 'll be ? anna : were you even present when mr. manning received the phone call from the private investigator ? tea : no , i 'd gone to the bathroom . i was just coming back when he hung up the phone . mcbain : so you did n't hear the exchange . tea : todd , why would your p.i . call you from in here ? todd : i have no idea . i - i do n't know . maybe -- maybe heather split , and my investigator broke in here so that he could investigate -- her privately . anna : i thought you said your p.i . was tracking heather to this motel room . would n't he have told you when she left ? mcbain : why would you show up here if you knew she was -- todd : look , everybody just back off and calm down , okay ? ! we got here as quickly as we could ! there is a baby 's life at stake ! anna : why did n't you call 911 ? todd : always forget that number . tea : i suggested that , but todd did n't want to . anna : shocking . todd : no , it 's not . heather tried to kill you . and i did n't want her to -- to go all bananas , not around the kid . mcbain : so what was the plan , you know ? just -- grab the kid , let tea leave with him ? tea : what do you mean `` let tea leave with him `` ? steve : olivia ? ! olivia , what happened ? epiphany : your mother happened . olivia : heather -- she showed up with the baby . and she was n't too happy to see me . steve : where are they now ? olivia : the roof . todd : i 'm doing their job , and they 're giving me a hard time . the only reason that you know that crazy - pants was here is because you tapped my phone . oh , no , no ! i 'm sorry . because you looked at my phone records . tea : shut your mouth . you two 100 % believe that it was heather who called todd ? anna : yes . tea : why ? why would she do that ? mcbain : she needs his help . tea : the woman kidnapped my son . why on earth would she think that todd would help her ? sam : dante , put the gun down . jason : you ca n't get a clean shot . heather : you could at least pretend to be concerned about me , jason . after all , we are distant cousins . dante : oh . my condolences . heather : that was very hurtful , officer . are you still upset about that incident with your mother ? dante : if by incident you mean when you threw her down the stairs just now , yeah , i 'm not too happy about that . but , hey , at least this time you did n't shoot her up . now hand over the baby . heather : so demanding . dante : hand over sam 's baby before someone gets hurt ! heather : you 're the one who 's busting through the door with your gun . you 're frightening the baby . there you go . there you go , sweetheart . everything 's gon na be fine once i get rid of the mean policeman . dante : oh , i 'm not going anywhere , heather . heather : really ? you might want to rethink that and go before you force me to do something i do n't really want to . sam : i do n't understand . what is it that you do n't want to do ? heather : get rid of the officer -- or i 'll show you . luke : anna demanded that i track down robert and tell him the truth . tracy : that ethan is your son , not his . luke : yeah . well , you know , i told him that lie just to save his life . he was so miserable after -- robin died that he needed a reason to go on . tracy : i know how much ethan means to you . it must have been very painful to pretend he was n't yours . luke : it was . thank you . tracy : anna did hurting from the false hope over robin . tracy : what happened in switzerland ? dr. obrecht : luke spencer cares deeply for ms . devane . duke : you mentioned that . dr. obrecht : and from what i witnessed , she cares deeply for him . if he intends to fight -- duke : where might that leave me ? whatever anna 's feelings are for luke , they ca n't compare with the history she and i share . i care very much for anna . and deep down , i know she feels the same way . dr. obrecht : a lot of time has passed . things change . so do people . duke : your point ? dr. obrecht : i just want you to be prepared for the possibility she could choose mr. spencer over you . luke : anna got herself admitted to a psychiatric hospital over there , and she -- found this patient -- young patient who had been transferred from ferncliff . the girl sort of fit the description of robin , so -- for a while , she thought robin was -- alive again . but , of course , it was n't robin . tracy : 'cause robin 's dead . luke : right . and then she had to go through losing her daughter all over again , and somehow , the grief of that got all mixed up with her anger towards me about having lied to robert , and i had given him all this false hope , blah , blah , blah , so she insisted that i track him down and tell him the truth , which i did . and then , when i come back here -- [ scoffs ] tracy : duke lavery is standing in your living room . luke : yeah . what 's going on with her , tracy ? first , she -- she thinks her daughter is alive . she finds out that that 's a lie . and then , all of a sudden , here 's this dude claiming to be her dead husband . tracy : and i wonder which lover anna 's gon na choose -- live luke , who lied about ethan being robert 's son -- luke : yeah , i told you that i lied to keep robert from jumping off a bridge , and it worked . tracy : yeah , but it left anna alone to deal with robin 's death , by the way . -- or dead duke , the dashing gangster -- luke : who said anything about dashing ? tracy : -- with a heart of gold , whose death caused anna such grief , she was rendered inconsolable . luke : yeah , decades ago . tracy : did she give you any indication which direction she was leaning ? luke : anna ? tracy : no , ilsa lund ! luke : no , she did n't give me any indication of anything . she flew out of here like a shot . tracy : she ran away ? luke : she went to work . she 's up to her eyeballs trying to find these -- characters -- you know , perennial wacko heather webber and -- tracy : and joseph scully jr . anna : all right , everyone , we need to concentrate on finding heather and the child . todd : i completely agree . your paranoia will just have to wait . tea : john , i 've known you for some time now , and i trust your judgment almost implicitly . todd : that would be a mistake . tea : but this time , i 'm just not seeing it , okay ? come on . todd and heather webber conspiring to -- i mean , i 'm not even sure what you 're accusing him of . todd : what did i do ? i gave heather webber a job , and then all of a sudden , he jumps all code red on me . tea : oh , is that true ? mcbain : i wish it was that simple . tea : listen , john , there is an explanation for that . the reason todd hired heather webber is the same reason i did -- out of gratitude to her for having helped save victor 's life the night he was born . mcbain : there 's more to it than that . anna : john , really , i do not think that this is the right time or place . todd : i completely agree . let me just say , commissioner , that when it comes time for your re - election , you can count on my vote . anna : i do n't want it . mcbain : really ? okay , here goes . you want to know the truth about your boy here and heather webber ? tea : no , i do n't actually -- you know what ? i do n't ! if it has nothing to do with my son , i do n't care ! it can wait till later ! mcbain : it has everything to do with your son . jason : it 's okay . i got this . dante : i 'm not just gon na leave her up here on this roof with the baby . jason : i 'm not gon na let anything happen to him . heather : no police . no guns . both will endanger this baby 's life . do n't make me prove it . sam : dante , please , just go . heather : that 's the first smart thing you 've said all night . sam : what would you do if it was your child ? you would do anything to keep him safe , right ? that 's all i 'm trying to do . go . jason : look , i can talk heather down . dante : no one -- no one can talk to her . jason : she has our son . i 'm gon na find a way . heather : that 's better . is n't that better for everyone ? sam : yeah , we did our part , heather . now do yours and give us the baby , please . heather : sorry . no can do . jason : he is n't yours , heather . that 's our son . jason : who are you trying to kid , jason ? you never even wanted him . olivia : i saw her . i saw -- i saw heather . i saw heather bef -- i mean before i actually saw her . epiphany : olivia thought that i was heather when i walked in to your exam room . steve : was the baby with her in your vision ? olivia : no , no , she was n't , but she was wearing the same scrubs -- exactly the same kind of scrubs she had on when i bumped into her . epiphany : if i had taken her more seriously , maybe i could have stopped this from happening . now an innocent baby 's in danger . steve : that baby 's been in danger since my mother took him . dante : dispatch all available units now . olivia : honey , what 's up ? is the baby okay ? dante : baby 's fine , but heather freaked out , said she 'd hurt the baby if i did n't leave . olivia : are they still up there , jason and sam ? dante : they 're the ones who convinced me to go , said they could handle your mother . steve : handle her ? she 's completely lost it . what if they ca n't talk her off the roof ? dante : i do n't know , steve . i do n't know what your mother 's gon na do . she 's on a rooftop holding a baby in her arms right now . my presence was agitating her . how are you ? olivia : yeah , i 'm fine , honestly . epiphany : she has no broken bones . she 's fine . olivia : where are you going ? ! steve : she 's my mother . it 's up to me to rescue that baby . heather : six months ago , you could n't stand the thought of this baby . and why ? because he was your twin 's , your better half 's . franco was the father , and you should have been thankful . sam : shut up . heather : but , no . you thought he 'd grow up to be crazy or something . no . franco was n't crazy . he was a genius . jason : shut up ! heather : he got the talent , he got the brains , and he got your wife -- jason : that 's enough ! heather : you know , this united - front act of yours , it 's very transparent , by the way . i know that your marriage is in a shambles . and why ? because of you -- your pride . this baby deserves more than a broken home . he deserves more than you as his father . jason : you 're wrong . i want him . heather : since when ? jason : i want him ! i want my son . tea : john , what is it ? what is it that you have to tell me about my son ? what the hell is going on here ? ! anna : all right , please , please , please calm down . tea : would you remain calm if your child were missing ? if your child were in any danger at all ? anna : no , i would not . tea : john , please ! mcbain : you 're right . you deserve to know the truth , and -- since manning wo n't tell you , you 're gon na have to hear it from me . duke : you know , i never thought it was possible that anna 's grown more beautiful . it 's as if all the grief and the suffering has given her a depth of character . i looked into her beautiful brown eyes , and -- she smiled . she -- melted my heart . dr. obrecht : you 're quite poetic on the subject . duke : only when it comes to anna . only her . dr. obrecht : have you considered your next step -- if she chooses luke ? duke : i 'll cross that bridge when i come to it . dr. obrecht : i know you do n't like thinking about the prospect , but it ca n't hurt to be realistic . duke : you , more than all people , know what i 'm capable of when push comes to shove -- the drastic measures . look at robin . luke : so you know him ? tracy : [ sighs ] yes , i know joseph . luke : `` joseph . `` first - name basis . tracy : he 's the man i told you about , with the soup and the spillage and -- we started talking . luke : wait a minute . is that -- you mean the same day that you let me take the jet to switzerland . tracy : yes , yes , yes , yes . luke : so it was joe scully jr. ? tracy : i did n't know it was joe scully jr. ! to me , he was just this charming stranger . he was sweet and attractive and -- wow , was he good in bed . luke : say what ? tracy : i thought he was the perfect package . he was n't . luke : [ sighs ] i did n't hear the first part of that . so , what happened ? tracy : he -- raped kate howard when they were teenagers in bensonhurst -- so says sonny corinthos . he also -- he also accused him of -- murdering mcbain 's sister . luke : [ laughing ] oh , mama . you sure can pick 'em . tracy : joseph denied all of it , and i believed him . so , when he showed up on my -- doorstep with a gunshot -- luke : you took him in . tracy : i took him in . luke : you took him in . tracy : i would have done anything for him . luke : mm . why do i get the feeling that that has n't changed ? steve : i can help , dante . if my mother 's gon na listen to anyone , it 's gon na be me . dante : wow . really ? 'cause her clocking you over the head says something different . she left you on the floor , unconscious . you could have been dead . olivia : dante is right . heather does not trust you anymore . look , this is sam 's baby . it 's her decision to make how she wants to handle this . and do n't you think she 's been without this kid long enough ? steve : okay . whatever you think 's best . dante : thank you . i got to phone the commissioner . i will be back to check on you . olivia : go , go . epiphany : did -- dante just say -- that sam was that baby 's mother ? how is that possible ? todd : you do n't have to listen to john mcbain . tea : shut your mouth . i want an explanation , john . what did you mean , the truth about my son ? todd : he does n't know . he has no idea . he 's just -- he 's wasting time . he 's -- he 's -- he 's just stalling , hoping that somebody out there magically finds your kid . anna : do n't you even suggest that my department is not taking this seriously . todd : this is just a huge waste of time ! heather 's not here ! tea 's kid is not here ! [ cell phone rings ] anna : it 's me . yes . devane . what ? tea : do n't make me guess , please . mcbain : okay . listen to me , all right ? i 'm sorry to be the one to have to tell you this , all right ? someone else should really be doing this . anna : anyone armed ? tea : what ? mcbain : the night you gave birth -- anna : yes , okay . tea : wh - what are you trying to tell me ? anna : they 've located heather . she has the baby . they 're at general hospital . tea : oh , my god ! is victor okay ? anna : well , he 's -- his health is all right , yes . tea : oh , god , thank god . does that mean this is over ? i can take him home ? anna : tea , listen to me . no , it does n't mean that . tea : no , no ! but if he 's at the hospital , then someone must have gotten him away from her ! anna : listen . it is a hostage situation . heather has the baby on the roof of the hospital . tea : [ gasps ] anna : it 's all right . come with us . come on . jason : i love sam , and i want my son back . heather : well , that 's a convenient change of heart . jason : i was wrong to turn my back on him ! sam : jason , you do n't have -- jason : no . are you hearing me ? ! i made a mistake ! heather : it 's a little late for that , do n't you think ? jason : no , it 's not . heather : you 'll never be able to forget he 's franco 's . jason : i do n't care ! heather : of course you do . you hate franco . you 're jealous of him . and you 'll never be able to love his son . jason : he 's my son ! and it only matters that he 's here now . sam and i want him . heather : you know what they say . people make plans , and god laughs . sam : heather , please ! he 's our baby ! please do n't keep us apart . heather : like you kept me from steven lars ? sam : you made me think my son was dead . is n't that revenge enough ? heather : this is n't about revenge . sam : then what ? come on . why wo n't you let me have my baby ? heather : because you do n't love him . hi , i 'm amy for downy unstopables tracy : joseph is a liar . that 's just the tip of the iceberg . no , my feelings for him have not changed . luke : it 's never that cut and dry with us , is it ? so how did you know he was lying ? you did n't believe sonny , i take it ? [ chuckles ] i did n't think so . tracy : when joseph showed up with a gunshot wound , he said that sonny had tried to kill him . luke : it 's not a stretch . tracy : exactly . so i agreed to remove the bullet from him . luke : you what ? tracy : i removed the bullet from him . luke : from his body ? tracy : yes , from his body ! it was n't that difficult , which is maddening considering how monica and alan put themselves up on a pedestal for years . luke : you know they have these new things now called hospitals ? tracy : joseph said he could n't go to the hospital because sonny would find him and finish what he started , so when dante came knocking , i hid joseph . luke : you did n't think it was strange that he wanted to hide from the police when his story was that sonny had assaulted him ? tracy : yes , i thought it was strange , but joseph gave me the whole `` sonny is dante 's father , and he would n't believe what he said , `` and blah , blah , blah . it does n't matter . my judgment was clouded . luke : boy , there 's a lot of that going around . tracy : but dante set me straight , and he told me it was actually -- joseph 's son that shot him . so what else could i do ? i turned him in . luke : and then when dante went to arrest him , he was gone . tracy : he 's a louse , he 's a criminal -- and god help me -- i was crazy about him . luke : mm . i 'm sorry . [ laughing ] tracy : no , you 're not . luke : yes , i -- i am . i really am . oh , man . we are a pair . [ chuckles ] anna : they 're with us . you can let them in . tea : oh , god . dante : we 've had them under surveillance since we got here . anna : okay . mcbain : hey . where you going ? tea : victor is alone with that maniac ! i have to be with him ! mcbain : ca n't let you do that . tea : he 's my son . okay ? if it were liam , would you be staying down here ? mcbain : listen to me -- you do not know what you are walking into up there . this woman is insane . i ca n't have you escalating the situation . tea : okay . i just ca n't stand this doing nothing . mcbain : you 're not doing nothing . you 're doing what 's best for the baby , okay ? tea : okay . okay . mcbain : okay . keep an eye on her . todd : [ clears throat ] you think maybe we could talk for -- tea : not now , okay ? todd : okay . dante : we got sharpshooters on the adjacent rooftop , but they ca n't risk a shot because heather 's holding on to this baby . mcbain : who 's up there with her ? dante : sam and jason morgan . tea : who the hell are they ? who the hell are sam and jason morgan , and why are they with my son ? sam : you know nothing about me . i love my son more than life itself . heather : is that why you left him to die ? sam : i did n't -- i did n't leave him . heather : outside ? in a storm ? jason : you stole him ! heather : what were you doing out there in the woods , anyway ? could n't you be bothered to get to a hospital ? sam : i tried . heather : instead , you gave birth to him in a seedy motel room with no regard for your child 's welfare . sam : there was nothing i could do ! heather : you wanted him to die . sam : what did you just say ? heather : you heard me . jason : you want someone to blame for what happened ? i 'm right here . blame me . heather : i 'm a better parent than the two of you put together . sam : that 's -- that 's what you want -- more than anything , right ? to have a child who loves you , to be a mother ? if you let me , i can help make that happen . tea : do you know who sam and jason are ? todd : not well . dante : heather was getting agitated . i had to leave or risk something happening to that kid . anna : oh , god . this ca n't go on any longer . we need to get that baby down . heather 's becoming less stable by the minute . dante : i know . mcbain : how do you want to do this ? anna : well , she needs to be made aware of her options . give me that thing . i hope we do n't set her off . sam : this is n't about my son , heather . it 's about yours . i mean , you want -- you want steven lars in your life . you want the chance to be his mother . heather : who took away that chance ? sam : i did . i did . it was all my fault , and i will make it up to you . i will go in there right now and smooth things over . i promise . i will tell them that everything you did , all the mistakes you made , you did it because you love him . heather : i do n't believe you . he already said it was too late . sam : no . no , it 's never too late . give me my baby , and i 'll give you steve . heather : steven lars . sam : steven lars . heather : why would he listen to you ? why should i believe you ? sam : he will . i promise . i will make him listen to me . he will forgive you . you can start over . all you have to do is give me my baby . anna : heather webber , this is anna devane , police commissioner . the hospital is surrounded . there is no way out . if you cooperate and surrender the baby immediately , we can work out some form of lenience . there 's no other option , heather . you need to give up the baby now . tracy : what am i doing crying on your shoulder ? luke : who else ? tracy : we 're divorced -- your idea , not mine , by the way . and there is an argument that i 'm in this predicament because of you . luke : oh . okay . so it 's all my fault . tracy : no , it 's not . it 's my fault . he was too good to be true . and i knew it was too good to be true , but i just chose to disregard . luke : i take it you have n't heard from casanova since you turned him in . tracy : not a peep . and at this point , i 'd like to know that the police had found him so at least i would know he was alive . luke : relax . he 'll be back . in this town -- both : -- nobody dies . duke : enough about my personal life . how is our newest patient ? dr. obrecht : an absolute travesty -- like a -- like a toddler stitched him up . duke : i asked about his condition . i did n't ask for your opinion . dr. obrecht : whoever attended to that man should have their license revoked . duke : but he 's alive ? joe jr. : that 's right . and fit as a fiddle . epiphany : i was , um -- i was here that night . i - i remember ms . delgado . you -- you remember a baby that was born at a bus stop . steve : yeah . you sure do . epiphany : she was -- she was so grateful that her son had made it , she did n't even want to let him out of her sight . and then sam -- she came in holding that -- that still little body . she said she did n't want to let him go because -- if she did , he 'd really be gone . olivia : it 's so heartbreaking . sam 's been mourning a baby that was n't even hers . epiphany : a baby ms . delgado did n't even know she lost . tea : i have to go up there , todd . todd : there 's nothing you can do . tea : i need to be with my son ! he needs me , not these strangers ! please ! i 'm his mother ! please ! i 'm his mother , todd ! please ! jason : you heard the commissioner . there 's nothing left to do except give us the baby . heather : this is n't how it was supposed to be . we were supposed to be long gone by now . sam : i will talk to anna myself . i 'll make sure she goes easy on you and she keeps her promise . heather : we just have to get you back to the motel . that 's all . there 'll be someone there to meet us with money and passports , and we 'll get you someplace safe . jason : it 's not gon na happen now , heather . the only way you 're gon na leave is with a police escort . sam : heather , please . please , let me have my baby . please , heather . jason : heather , heather -- there 's not a choice here . heather : [ shuddered breathing ] you 're right . it 's over . if i ca n't have this baby -- [ crowd gasping ] heather : -- nobody can . sam : no ! tea : please , god , no ! do n't hurt him ! no !

[ scene_break ] dillon : yes . kiki is the reason that i 'm smiling today . ned : good . i 'm glad to hear you have something happy to focus on and not your dad . so i guess you wo n't be slapping any more gaffing hooks into the boathouse door . dillon : what ? i have no idea what you 're talking about . ned : it was n't you ? maybe liv is right . dillon : olivia ? ned : yeah , yeah . uh , we were inside , and she 's the one who found it . uh , there was a hook in the door . dillon : wait , hold on . okay .

[ scoffs ] why would you say something so horrible ? ava : it 's the truth , honey . kiki : if this is your latest plan to try to break us up ... ava : kiki . kiki : ... it 's really sick . ava : i 'm not making this up . kiki : well , i 'm gon na call morgan , and he 's gon na answer . he did n't answer . my god . he did n't answer . [ scene_break ] bobbie : carly , honey , sit down . i 'll make you some tea , and we can talk . carly : i do n't want tea ! i do n't want to talk , because morgan was expelled from pcu , and i 'm gon na have to help him get through this , okay ? why is sonny 's coat covered with mud ? bobbie : [ sighs ] because after he heard about morgan 's accident , he went to look for him . carly : sonny came home last night . and he was covered in mud , and he was wet , and he looked like hell . and he had this look on his face . i was so scared . mom , i 've never been so scared in my life . and i could hear the things that he was saying ...

[ scene_break ] kiki : [ crying ] i do n't understand any of this . why ... why would morgan be driving julian 's car ? ava : i do n't -- i do n't know all the details . i just know that morgan was drinking , and , apparently , the bartender took his keys away . and how he ended up in julian 's car , i have no idea . kiki : drinking ? morgan 's not supposed to be drinking on his medication . ava : from what i heard ... what set morgan off was when he saw -- it was -- it was after -- kiki : what ? what set him off ? ava : he saw you and dillon together . being intimate together . kiki : but -- but dillon and i were never -- we never had sex . why would -- why would morgan think that ? it was his medication . it had to be his medication . i 've been thinking that it was off for a really long time . ava : i think mental illness can be hard to understand sometimes , kiki . kiki : i have to go . ava : will you please come home with me ? please ? kiki : no . i ca n't do this right now ! [ sobbing ] [ scene_break ] michael : julian , he has a lot of enemies , right ? just -- just please tell me ... you did n't try and kill him last night . sonny : i -- michael : my god , you ca n't even say it , can you ? ! sonny : okay , you need to listen to me for one second . michael : w - why ? are you gon na explain ? ! how it was n't supposed to happen this way , that julian was supposed to die ? what difference does that make to morgan ? ! sonny : i do n't know how the hell this happened ! i do n't know what happened ! michael : of course , you do ! you put the whole thing in motion ! of course , you do ! you gave the order . jason : michael , that 's enough . i 'm gon na get you home , okay ? let 's go . michael : when i wanted to go after paul for what he did to sabrina , you stopped me . you told me that vengeance is expensive , that it will cost me the rest of my life , that paul was n't worth it . was julian worth it ? was vengeance on him worth morgan 's life ? jason : hey , let 's go . let 's go . come on . let 's go .

[ scene_break ] olivia : maybe julian was just an excuse . [ sighs ] maybe the real reason i wanted to keep us a secret was ... because if we tell people ... then this thing becomes real . and if it 's real ... i can screw it up . ned : screwing up is a two - way street . i have been known to mess things up myself . all i know is i miss you . i miss us . olivia : well , you know , `` doctor strange `` is about to hit theaters pretty soon . ned : you may be surprised to hear this , but ... if i ca n't see that movie with you , i wo n't see it . it wo n't be the same . i do n't want to pressure you . it 's just ... how i feel . olivia : ned ?

[ sobbing ] [ scene_break ] lulu : maybe there was a mistake . maybe sonny did n't do it . dante : yeah , right . [ sniffles ] it would n't be the first time one of sonny 's kids was caught in the crossfire . [ sighs ] morgan was the first , uh -- the first corinthos i ever met when i came to town . did i ever tell you that ? [ sighs ] oh , he had his whole life ahead of him , you know ? lulu : oh , come here . come here . i 'm sorry . [ scene_break ] monica : what happened to morgan was a senseless tragedy . and right now , michael needs his family all around him , and that includes jason . tracy : sorry . michael : it 's okay . you were just being a quartermaine . we can all appreciate that . monica : we need to deal with the board , and i think michael could use a little privacy , okay ? michael : [ sighs ] i - i do n't know how i -- how i did n't see morgan was struggling . i think i wanted so badly to believe he was doing better . i should have known . jason : hey . this is n't on you . michael : no . morgan stole that car because he was manic , and he was manic , because we were not paying attention . so , yes , i contributed . but ... [ clears throat ] ... whoever gave the order to plant that bomb ... they 're the ones who killed morgan . jason : look . [ clears throat ] i see where you 're going with this . and julian had a lot of enemies . your father might not have had anything to do with this . michael : right . now , do you really believe that ? [ scene_break ] carly : you just could n't help yourself , could you ? you had to be the one to finish julian . and now our boy ... is dead . our beautiful little boy ... is dead ! and you killed him !

the devastating news about what happened to morgan hits each person who hears it , one by one . carly awakens , in complete denial about what happened the previous night , protesting to her mom that she only had a nightmare and her baby boy will soon return and she and sonny will apologize for their recent argument and tell morgan how much they love and encourage him to believe in himself . yet bobbie wants her daughter to face what has happened . dante is certain he knows what has happened and drops the bombshell upon michael who instantly puts two and two together about how sonny must have installed the bomb in julian 's car that killed morgan . sonny knows that he called off the hit on julian but needs to find out from the guy whom he first hired to do it and then later reconsidered if he failed to call it off or not . yet he can not reach him nor has any answers or ways to find out if he is responsible for what happened to morgan . michael and jason go to the quartermaine house . tracy and monica are devastated and tracy tells jason that she will make sonny pay for what he keeps getting away with . kiki is ready to happily spend time with dillon until ava goes to find her daughter and tells her what happened to morgan and how and why it happened . kiki then concludes that she and dillon are responsible for what caused morgan to snap since he saw them together and lost it . and so , she informs dillon , she can not go through with having a relationship with him . carly figures out what more than likely happened and furiously confronts sonny declaring that he murdered their baby boy .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : if alexis does not survive this , she wants sam and ric to raise the girls together . despite that request , sam is adamant that ric have no part in kristina or molly 's life . she 's even asked me to help fight for protective custody in the event of alexis ' death . jason : family is important to sam . she 'll do anything to protect her little sisters . nikolas : protect why ? ric is molly 's father . he has every right to raise his own daughter . there 's obviously something more to the situation than sam is leading on . why is she so desperate to keep ric away from those girls ? jason : do we really need to go down the list of all the sick things ric has done ? ric is out for himself . beyond that , anything that sam knows is for her to tell you . lulu : nikolas , you have to -- oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't -- i did n't mean to interrupt . jason : no , that 's ok . we 're done . nikolas : jason , i ca n't help if i do n't know what 's going on . jason : nikolas , all i can say is if sam needs your help , she 'll -- she 'll ask for it . nikolas : ok . [ door closes ] nikolas : what 's -- what 's wrong ? lulu : um -- elizabeth is being completely unfair to lucky . do you know that she has n't visited him once since he 's been in rehab ? nikolas : lucky has to get clean for himself . there 's nothing more that elizabeth can do for him . lulu : she could try being supportive . lucky checked himself into rehab so that he could be a better father to cam and the baby . he is trying to do everything he can to get his life back , and elizabeth is acting like she could care less if he ever comes home again . i just -- i do n't get it . i thought elizabeth loved him . why is she shutting him out when lucky needs her the most ? [ scene_break ] luke : look around , junior . your daddy 's not here to protect you in case the big , bad man decides to break your knees . think about self - preservation . sonny : hey , luke ? alcazar does have a place in rancho del sol . he 's used it as a safe house for years . diego : look , if you want to find skye , you better get down there now , ok ? my father -- it 's a matter of time before he moves her again . luke : if she 's there at all . diego : i 'm telling you the truth . luke : and why would you do that ? diego : skye wants out of my dad 's life , right ? and it 'd be better off for everyone if he would just let her walk away . sonny : you mean better for you , right ? because you do n't want your father to have anything to do with that baby , do you ? [ scene_break ] carly : what are you up to ? jax : uh -- morgan 's helping me with a little project that we 're working on . carly : oh . what kind of project ? jax : top - secret kind . right , morgan ? carly : well , you ca n't ask him to keep a secret from his mother . right ? jax : you tell your mother everything ? carly : he 's 4 . how long do you think he 's going to be able to hold out ? jax : ok , fine . i 'll make you a deal , ok ? if you have dinner with me tonight , i 'll tell you about the secret . carly : just like that ? jax : yeah . yeah , just like that . elm street pier , 8 : 00 . ok ? carly : the pier ? why the pier ? jax : it 's a surprise , remember ? carly : we 're going out on your boat , are n't we ? where you taking me ? where we going ? jax : pier , 8 : 00 , do n't be late . carly : come here . come over here . spill it . what did jax tell you ? jax ! you might as well tell me ! i 'm going to get it out of morgan ! [ scene_break ] sam : do n't bother denying it , elizabeth . jason told me everything . elizabeth : well , then you obviously did n't hear a word he said , because there was only a chance that jason is the father of this baby . sam : yeah , a chance , but you 're hoping and praying that he is , because that would pretty much solve everything for you , would n't it ? elizabeth : what are you talking about ? sam : `` what am i talking about ? `` jason could come in and clean up the mess that lucky made of your life . elizabeth : ok , i went to jason as a friend . my marriage was already falling apart . i just needed somebody to talk to . sam : well , maybe if you would 've talked to your husband a little bit more , you would n't be in this mess . elizabeth : oh , no , do n't you dare put this off on me . you destroyed anything you had with jason the second you slept with ric . sam : and you took the first opportunity you could to jump into bed with jason . elizabeth : i did n't plan it . sam : but you sure as hell did n't hesitate . you wanted it . and if you would 've hesitated for a second , you would n't be in this mess . elizabeth : and i certainly do n't regret anything that happened . i mean , why would i ? lucky and i were all but over , the two of you were n't together . there was nothing wrong with what we did . can you say the same for you and ric ? i mean , what kind of person sleeps with their mother 's husband ? sam : you know what ? i swear to god , if you were not pregnant -- jason : stop -- both of you . [ scene_break ] luke : so you 're cooperating because you 're afraid your papa 's going to replace you in that cold - blooded heart of his ? diego : maybe i 'm just in a better position to see how this should all play out . luke : meaning ? diego : meaning my father has the best intentions -- he wants to give this kid a good life -- but what he has n't figured out is that skye 's baby is better off without him . he has no business being a father . luke : my kids say the same thing about me . i wonder what we did wrong to raise such annoying whiners . sonny : thanks for coming by , diego . diego : you did n't give me much of a choice . sonny : max will take you wherever you 'd like to go . you think he 's lying ? luke : there 's only one way to find out . sonny : you 're going to go to rancho del sol ? luke : i hear the tequila 's 200 proof . [ phone rings ] sonny : hallelujah . luke : that 's me . spencer . what about laura ? [ scene_break ] lulu : lucky messed up in the worst possible way . he cheated on elizabeth and he lied to her for months . but in his defense , addiction is an illness , and you would n't punish alexis for being sick . so why does elizabeth think it 's ok to punish lucky ? nikolas : wait -- well , alexis did not choose to have lung cancer . lucky made a choice every time he swallowed a pill , lulu . lulu : ok , yeah , lucky made some horrible mistakes , but that does not give us the right to turn our backs on him . nikolas : is that honestly what you think elizabeth is doing right now ? lulu : she has n't returned his calls , nor has she gone to see him . nikolas : elizabeth gave lucky another chance and he repaid her by using drugs again . lulu : ok , lucky is not going to get better overnight . he is going to be fighting this addiction for the rest of his life . nikolas : well , he might have to do it without elizabeth 's help , because there just might be too much that ca n't be taken back . [ scene_break ] jason : there 's no reason to be fighting about this right now . sam : no . right . of course there is n't . because she 's right and i 'm wrong , now that she 's carrying your child . jason : sam , that -- that 's not true . we do n't even -- we do n't even know that yet . sam : i know , jason . come on . it 's too perfect . congratulations . jason : sam -- i 'm sorry . she should n't really -- elizabeth : that 's -- please , i do n't -- jason : take this out on you . elizabeth : i do not blame her . i mean , if i was the one who 'd been with you for two years and then sam wound up pregnant , i 'd hate her , too . jason : this -- this just has to stop . have you taken the paternity test yet ? elizabeth : i 'm going to the hospital right now . jason : i hope it turns out the way you want . elizabeth : thanks .

patrick : so what do you think ? do i tell what i wish i did n't know or keep a secret that -- that is n't even mine ? coleman : okay , dangerous guy with a kid he was never told about , and the guy 's friends with somebody you 're close to . it 's got to be corinthos . patrick : coleman , the point of a hypothetical is to not name names . coleman : are you violating doctor - patient privilege or something by talking about it ? patrick : no , no -- technically , no . we 're not -- it 's not medical information and the people we 're talking about are n't patients . coleman : okay , so it 's sonny . and who 's the mystery mom ? [ scene_break ] olivia : if you 're so concerned with how sonny is doing , why do n't you ask him yourself ? claudia : you know , sonny 's bride gets gunned down at his wedding and her cousin is standing right there just to comfort him , huh ? how 's that working out for you ? olivia : i do n't really see why that 's any of your damn business . [ scene_break ] carly : the nurse on duty called and said you wanted to talk to me . kate : well , thank you for coming so quickly . kate : i owe you an apology . i was so focused on what i wanted , i failed to see what was really happening . carly : so what do you want ? kate : it 's hard for me , carly , to ask you for something . carly : that 's why you apologized , right ? you want a favor from me . kate : it 's about sonny . i need you to do something for him that i ca n't . [ scene_break ] jerry : killing alexis seems a bit extreme , karpov . karpov : it 's necessary . jerry : she 's the district attorney . she has every right to call you in . and given the rumors floating around , it would be suspicious if she did n't . you do n't have to tell her anything . karpov : she 's in my way . jerry : yes , but not mine . and it 's very bad manners to shoot the woman that you 're sleeping with , in most cases . karpov : alexis davis has to die , and if you wo n't kill her , i will . [ scene_break ] alexis : i understand your need for revenge . i understand your frustration with the police department . but do you think that i can just sit by here and do nothing while you start a mob war ? sonny : if i take care of the situation now , there wo n't be a war . alexis : are you kidding me ? what are you -- you -- you ca n't honestly believe that , do you ? you 're going to make this one guy , karpov , disappear , then he 'll send someone after you , and then they 'll send someone after someone else -- sonny : you know where i 'm coming from on this . you know that . alexis : no , i do n't know where you 're coming from . sonny : yes , you do . alexis : you think you 're going to take one man out and it 's going to make everything okay ? you know that 's not the way it works . sonny : you got away with it , though . alexis : that 's -- sonny : with alcazar . am i right or wrong ? alexis : completely different . sonny : why ? alexis : and i can assure you that the court is not going to be lenient with you . because it was an accident , that 's why . go do something that 's good for you , sonny . go take care of your girlfriend . she needs you . go make her feel better . sonny : that 's impossible , and you know that , at this point . alexis : all i 'm asking is that you just stay out of the way for once , and let the law enforcement do their job . sonny : you understand what i 'm talking about , but you 're trying to act like you do n't . in your heart , you know that i 'm the only one that can make this right . sonny : when anthony zacchara threatened kristina , you took the law into your own hands . you did n't come to me . alexis : with good reason , because i did n't want the situation to escalate . sonny : but you did n't stay within the law either . you went to a psychopath , a known killer . what if i had asked you then to start an investigation , to bring in the police , huh ? answer me . alexis : i hate it when you 're right . sonny : okay . alexis : you would 've made a fine , fine attorney . i suspect it 's what you want me to do for you and return the favor . sonny : all -- listen , all i 'm asking right now is to do n't waste your time and money on an investigation that 's going to lead to nowhere . karpov is a professional . he 's got layers and layers of protection that go way beyond port charles . alexis : i know , i 'm aware of that . sonny : then why start a task force when you 're not going to catch him ? it 's going to make you look bad . alexis : because i 'm a district attorney . i ca n't just turn my back when you 're about to kill somebody . sonny : okay , who said anything about killing somebody ? i 'm just going to make sure that a dangerous man does n't hurt anybody again . alexis : if karpov is killed , you 're the prime suspect and i 'm going to be expected to make a big , fat case against you which is the last thing that i feel like doing . sonny : okay , you 're going way ahead of yourself right now , because karpov is around , as far as i know of , right ? but if karpov ends up dead -- okay , it 's a dangerous business . a lot of people , you know , would want him dead . he 's better off not being in port charles anyway . ca n't we just leave it at that ? alexis : can we just talk as friends ? sonny : yeah , but you 're not going to change -- you 're not going to change my mind . alexis : okay . we both understand that kate was shot because of your mob connections , right ? sonny : that 's why i ca n't let this go . alexis : that 's why you have to let it go . because she loves you and she will forgive you , if you do n't step back into the mob . but i 'm telling you that if you retaliate , and you go back and you go after karpov , you 're done , that 's it . so is revenge worth losing kate ? sonny : all i 'm asking is that you do n't waste your time on the investigation . alexis : and all i 'm asking , as the mother of your child and as someone who cares so much about what happens to you , see the truth . revenge is useless . it wo n't help . and for once in your stubborn life , will you please just let law enforcement do their job ? sonny : tell kristina i love her . [ scene_break ] karpov : why is alexis davis so suspicious of me ? jerry : i certainly did n't tell her anything , but that 's your concern . you needed to be more cautious . stop rushing the shipments , and do n't try to kill the district attorney . it could jeopardize the whole operation . karpov : it will send a message . jerry : no , it will attract a great deal of attention . we 'll lose money , and the d.a . that replaces her will have even more reason to go after you . but this can be easily avoided . karpov : and i suppose you 're going to tell me how . jerry : yes , i am . all we have to do is focus alexis ' attention on someone else .

[ scene_break ] olivia : you do n't care about my cousin or anyone else . you had no business being at her wedding , and the sooner you stop talking to me , the better . [ claudia chuckles ] claudia : you do n't have to be so hostile . olivia : let 's put it this way . the zaccharas have a certain reputation . looks to me like you 're living right down to it . claudia : oh , you know my name . you know my family . you better be talking to me with a lot more respect . olivia : ha , respect for what ? you 've never done an honest day 's work in your life , and neither has anyone in your family . the zaccharas are thieves and drug runners and worse . claudia : you got it all figured out , do n't you ? you better quit running your mouth or you 're going to get yourself into something you have no idea how to get out . olivia : you know , you think you 're this powerhouse woman . everyone 's supposed to be all intimidated by you , but you 've never actually accomplished anything . you want to be strong and you want everyone 's respect . but let me tell you something , doll . you 're just trading on your daddy 's name . and you do n't impress me one bit . [ scene_break ] kate : did you enjoy watching me try to convince myself that sonny could leave the mob ? carly : no , kate . i was more concerned about what you did to me and jax . we 're getting divorced . i 'm sure you 're happy about that . kate : no , carly , i 'm not . it 's all so ridiculous . i wasted so much time , distracted on all of the wrong things . it 's ironic , you know . i mean , i wanted so desperately to spend my life with sonny that it almost got me killed . carly : i would n't wish what happened to you on anyone , kate . or should i say connie ? kate : i -- i did n't -- carly : you did n't what ? you did n't know that you had been outed as connie falconeri from bensonhurst ? i mean , it 's kind of hard to miss when you and olivia are screaming at each other . we could hear it all the way in the church -- kate : you know what , carly ? whatever you think , i believe that sonny wanted to leave the mob , that he tried . and i do n't know what 's going to happen with us , but i do know that he will listen to you and that he wants to avenge me . and i need for you to stop him . carly : wow , this is really funny when you think about it . see , my whole marriage blew up because of my connection to sonny , and now you , of all people , want me to use that connection to help you . kate : you know , carly , i actually thought that you might be graceful about this . carly : graceful ? when you did everything you could to rip my marriage apart ? you 're insane . let me tell you something . i ca n't stand you , connie falconeri . i think you 're a fake and i think you 're a phony . the only reason i 'm going to go talk to sonny is because he still matters to me , not you .

[ scene_break ] coleman : i come across all kinds of things in my kind of work . but i always make it a point to keep my mouth shut , especially when busted knee caps could be involved , you know ? patrick : which is where robin comes in . coleman : you lost me . patrick : sonny and robin , they 're really close friends . coleman : whoa . patrick : yeah . coleman : her uncle , the police commissioner , had to love that . corinthos used to own paradise lounge years ago , which made my strip joint look like a -- like a sunday school class , man . do n't ask , dude . patrick : okay . anyways , robin and sonny , they met through -- well , shared a close bond because of stone cates . coleman : stone cates ? as in stone cates memorial aids wing at the hospital ? patrick : exactly . coleman : he 's not the son in question , is he ? patrick : with all due respect , coleman , it 's a memorial wing . coleman : yeah . patrick : anyways , you know robin , she 's -- she 's big on full disclosure . i mean , at least when it 's somebody else 's kid . when it was mine , she took her sweet time telling me , but do n't get me wrong . she had her reasons -- coleman : exactly , which is why i 'm sure the mystery mom has her reasons , too . patrick : right . from all accounts , it sounds like the kid 's safe . he 's got a good life . she 's done a good job . so who am i to get involved in anybody else 's life , right ? coleman : exactly .

[ scene_break ] olivia : if you 're so interested in sonny , why do n't you give him a call ? i got his number right here . claudia : well , that 's okay . i have his number . you think your cousin would be cool with you setting up her fiancé while she 's in the hospital ? olivia : honey , she 's going to be done with sonny the minute her pain meds wear off . so you do whatever you want to do . you know , sonny 's had a madonna - whore complex ever since high school . it 's pretty clear which category you fall into . so even if you could manage to get him into bed , he 'd just wind up feeling dirty , disgusted . you know , he 'd hate himself for sleeping with someone as obvious and pathetic and , let 's face it , desperate as you .

[ scene_break ] claire : hi . ronnie : hey . i need to talk to you about the zacchara car bombing . claire : okay . what 's up ? ronnie : i think it 's our best shot to bring sonny down , but we need to remove dante from the case . claire : i disagree . i assigned dante to the case 'cause he has something to prove . he 's motivated to build a case against his father , and that 's what we want , to prosecute sonny . ronnie : yeah , that 's what we want . long as you 're plannin ' on goin ' after somebody else . claire : well , i caught michael in sonny 's office . he completely violated the terms of his release . and if i choose to tell the court , they 're gon na send him back to pentonville . ronnie : well , you do n't wan na do that to michael . claire : sending michael to prison would definitely hurt sonny , but i ca n't justify the damage it would do to michael . ronnie : you know , you do n't actually have to hurt michael . the threat is enough to give you leverage over jason . claire : and what would that accomplish ? ronnie : everything .

nathan : yeah . maxie : why ? nathan : to hear her tell it , she did it for me . anna : victor was cuffed and in my custody , and obrecht shot him point - blank . there was no real justification for her doing that . and the problem is there was just the three of us in the office , so it 's my word against hers . dante : you do n't have any physical evidence to back you up ? anna : we do n't have victor 's body . that was annihilated in the explosion at the clinic . i have been working for the last 48 hours just to find one little shred of evidence that i can use to hold her . dante : and your sworn statement is n't enough to do that ? anna : how can it be ? come on , dante . seriously , with -- given our history , her lawyer would argue that i 'm acting on some personal vendetta . well , i mean , that 's -- that 's not far from the truth . that woman deserves life in prison at the very least . dante : yeah , she does . look , after what she put me and lulu through , i would love to help you take her down . if there 's anything i can do to help you , you just let me know . anna : i think victor is the key to putting her away for good . dante : what are you thinking ? anna : motive . why did she shoot victor right in front of me ? i mean , we already know that he was supposed to be nathan 's father . that 's already come out . so she 's hiding something -- something that she could n't risk victor knowing . and i think when i find out what that is , that 's the way we can neutralize obrecht once and for all . madeline : i have had a very trying day . i 'm not interested in reminiscing -- certainly not with you . dr. obrecht : yes , i 'm sure escaping from prison is very taxing . madeline : you should know . dr. obrecht : i was n't in prison . i was erroneously detained . madeline : that happens to you a lot , does n't it ? dr. obrecht : i was released when cooler heads acknowledged there were no charges which could be filed against me . madeline : oh . i see . okay , then , what have you gotten away with this time ? dr. obrecht : nothing he did n't have coming . madeline : `` he `` ? do n't tell me you finally turned on that psychotic dane . oh . no . of course not . you will remain deluded until the bitter end . dr. obrecht : the police could n't prove anything , but that wo n't stop them from trying to get me back in their clutches , and i refuse to be taken in for harboring a fugitive . madeline : oh , liesl , stop it . i was released . apparently , i 'm as innocent as you are . dr. obrecht : you were convicted of two murders . madeline : there was a , um , chain - of - evidence problem concerning the pharmacist . and then the other charge -- murder -- never actually happened . in case you have n't noticed , i mean , with all your intrigues and everything , my daughter nina is very much alive . travis : i may only be a physical therapist , but i 'm still bound by the same privacy laws as doctors are . i ca n't talk to you about your wife . silas : yeah . i just wanted to thank you for all your hard work . travis : oh ? silas : hmm . yeah , nina surprised me the other day . showed me that her wheelchair days are over . i owe you one . travis : [ chuckles ] ah , i was just doing my job . silas : no . working miracles is more like it . travis : [ chuckles ] silas : not only is nina up and running around , literally , but she told me she 's been able to walk for awhile now . i mean , you 've achieved extraordinary results in a very short period of time . travis : um , thanks , but , um , the credit goes to nina . silas : yes . yes . i would n't sell yourself short . if i were you , i 'd suggest that you send nina 's case out to the medical journals for review . travis : oh . well , mrs. clay 's success may be isolated . she was very determined . silas : oh , she is determined , but i 'm more interested in how you did it and how fast you did it . exactly when did nina get up and on her feet ? jerry : dr. scorpio - drake turned luke 's blood into an elixir for sufferers of polonium poisoning . he was good enough to bestow upon me the gift of life . tracy : luke would never help you . jerry : are you sure ? think about it . he 's a practical man . he knows a good deal when he hears one . patrick : i do n't know if we should be worried for jerry or tracy . sam : i would say definitely tracy . um , look , i 'm gon na call for reinforcements . please keep an eye on her . patrick : be careful , sam . sam : i will . excuse me . pardon me . jerry : ah , sweet sam . could you and dr. drake please join us ? we have so much to discuss . patrick : watch it . sam : get your hands off of me . jerry : gentlemen , these are guests . so good of you to join us . oh , uh , ober , a sample of your best edibles , als je wilt . patrick : we expected to sit down and eat with you , jerry ? what are you -- crazy ? tracy : patrick , please . jerry : i hear a grievance coming , and here i was hoping -- patrick : you shot my wife . tracy : patrick ! jerry : can we skip the boring recitations about my many transgressions ? patrick : you faked her death , and you held her hostage , letting us all believe that she was dead -- enslaved her just to come up with your cure . god , i wish she failed . jerry : and , uh , look at me . here i am -- fit as a fiddle , ready to play . tracy : thanks to luke . it all adds up . julian jerome has been partnering with you , not luke . jerry : well , that 's an intriguing theory . tracy : number one -- jerry 's always been mobbed up . number two -- luke always thought that the jeromes were connected to him when he found ava wandering the alley after jerry took the swan dive off the metro court . sam : ava was there that night ? tracy : yes . luke knew that the jeromes helped him disappear , but he could n't figure out why . jerry : well , perhaps it was my winning personality . i mean , you 've always found me charming , have n't you ? sam : you 're a sociopath . jerry : you see ? she loves me . i mean , you ca n't always be perfect . tracy : do n't you see what this means ? he is the jeromes ' partner . sam : spencer said that luke ordered the crash . tracy : it was just a misdirection . he framed luke . he 's the one that 's been behind all of it ! patrick : or they 're working together . anna : look , it pains me to say this , but we 're gon na have to put obrecht on the back burner just temporarily right now . dante : so , what -- she gets to walk away from yet another murder ? anna : yes , another . dante : [ scoffs ] anna : but we have a slew of other cases that we have to concentrate on . dante : yeah , we do , like this . anna : what is it ? dante : i went to gh . to follow up on the joe doe that was hit out on 31 a couple weeks ago . anna : oh , yeah ? he 's still a john doe ? dante : still . still . he does n't remember anything about his life . calling him jake . do n't know his last name . anna : does he remember anything about the accident ? dante : nothing before waking up at the hospital , which also means that he does n't know that it 's ava jerome that actually ran him off the road , and not jordan ashford . anna : well , that 's good for jordan , at least . i 'm sorry he 's lost his memory . what about his i.d . ? did n't he have anything on his person ? dante : nothing . nothing . the guy 's a blank slate . i took his fingerprints . if this guy 's in the system , we 'll know who he is soon enough . jason : i 'm sorry for your loss . elizabeth : thank you . jason : not surprised you do n't want to talk about him . elizabeth : no , it 's fine . jason was an incredible person , and he was a really good friend and very loved . i do n't mind talking about him at all . i just usually do n't have a reason to . jason : was his death the reason your ex raised his son ? elizabeth : no . no , jason was n't in a position to be a father to jake . jason : what kind of position was he in ? elizabeth : well , he had already made some choices that made it complicated for him to be a parent . he could never claim his son , but i always made sure he was a presence in jake 's life , even if it was in a small way . jason : how so ? elizabeth : i named our son jacob martin so he 'd have the same initials as his dad , jason morgan . it was the only way i knew how to honor who they were to each other . maxie : nathan , i am so sorry . i do n't even really know what to say . i mean , i 've been through a lot with my mom over the years , but she 's never admitted to killing someone and then claimed it was for me , so ... i do n't really know how you 're feeling . nathan : yeah , that makes two of us . and now she 's all full - court press and trying make inroads and ... maxie : okay , well , you do n't owe her anything . nathan : i know . i know . but britt keeps insisting that there 's more to her , and i guess because of britt , i considered getting to know her . and then blindsides me with this . my mother killed my father . what the hell ? first , madeline tries to kill my sister , and now this ? what kind of a family do i come from , anyways ? maxie : what do you mean ? nathan : i mean i 've obviously inherited some pretty messed - up genes . what if i turn out like one of them ? maxie : no , that 's impossible . you 're already a hero . it 's too late to be anything else . lulu : [ clears throat ] it 's probably not the best idea . dr. obrecht : i assure you , magda , i 'm well aware of nina 's survival . i could n't miss her trundling around the hospital . did you hear ? i 've been made chief of staff . madeline : is it a doll hospital ? dr. obrecht : i have been a huge success . i have brought efficiency and the level of care to unprecedented heights . so you see , everything 's coming up liesl . madeline : congratulations . dr. obrecht : that hospital is my domain . there is n't much that gets by me , including my niece 's lackadaisical approach to physical therapy . she obviously inherited your work ethic . madeline : oh , yes , i 'm sure you were in a perfect position to observe her from your cell at the pcpd . dr. obrecht : i took note of it before my recent sojourn . i did my familial duty -- urged nina to redouble her efforts to make herself mobile . but something about her indifference made me wonder . madeline : wonder what ? dr. obrecht : whether nina needs her wheelchair at all . silas : there we go . travis , understand this -- no one else has to know what you 've been up to with nina . travis : `` up to `` ? silas : so , travis , you were saying -- when did nina regain full mobility ? [ cell phone chimes ] travis : um ... about ... three weeks ago . silas : about three weeks ago ? yeah , three weeks . that ... that sounds about right . it also sounds like what nina told you to say . so how about now you tell me the truth ? nina : travis , do n't you dare screw this up for me . [ cell phone chimes ] silas : oh , wait . wait . this just in . nina 's waiting for an answer , travis . and so am i . travis : dr. clay , really , i do n't understand any of this . [ cell phone chimes ] silas : you know , travis , that 's not gon na cut it this time . what 's nina so worried about ? travis : can i have my phone back , please ? those are private messages . silas : nina 's been able to walk for a lot longer than three weeks , has n't she ? ! you know it , and i know it . you 've been covering for her , have n't you , travis ? travis : dr. clay -- [ cell phone chimes ] travis : i would never -- [ sighs ] you 're mistaken . silas : am i ? travis : [ sighs ] oh , no . silas : whew ! nina 's pissed . not as pissed as i 'm gon na be or obrecht when she finds out about your little criminal enterprises . travis : what criminal enterprise ? silas : insurance fraud 's a felony , travis . you know that , right ? you 've been billing my insurance for months for physical - therapy sessions that nina neither attended or needed . travis : [ sighs ] silas : obrecht 's gon na fire your ass . and then she 's gon na take the case to the police department . or maybe this just stays between us . maybe no one else needs to know about it , but for that to happen , you have to tell me everything . you have to tell me the real story , and you need to tell it to me now . travis : she never needed the chair . she could always walk . madeline : you think nina is faking her disability ? dr. obrecht : the thought had occurred to me . madeline : well , it also occurred to you to spend your life running after that danish megalomaniac . dr. obrecht : so ? madeline : your judgment is suspect . dr. obrecht : this is a matter of observation and deduction , not one of taste . nina has an air of deceit about her -- the same one you wear like cheap perfume . she 's a liar , a secret keeper . i would n't be surprised if she 's a bit unbalanced . madeline : is that your professional opinion ? dr. obrecht : yes . i 've seen it before in the clinic i ran in switzerland . sometimes , coma victims awaken with injuries to their souls , not just their bodies . you would do well to tread carefully around nina , lest you find yourself the object of your daughter 's cockeyed gaze . madeline : really , liesl , i think you ought to turn your talents to romantic fiction . dr. obrecht : if your daughter is as demented as the patients i 've treated in the past , there 's no limit to what she 's capable of , especially to the person who put her in the coma to begin with . madeline : you do n't know a damn thing about nina , and i 'm telling you , unless you want a full - on confrontation between your bigger and better sister , you 'd better just shut your mouth and leave my daughter alone . dr. obrecht : struck a nerve , have i ? lulu : hey , nathan . maxie : i thought you were in a class . lulu : um , it 's over . you must have lost track of time . i actually left rocco with the instructor for a second 'cause i was looking for rocco 's lovey . [ chuckles ] maxie : okay , well , give rocco a kiss for me . lulu : okay . nathan : yeah , i was just gon na go work out . lulu : i do n't want to stick my nose in your business . okay , you guys know that i 'm on your side definitely . maxie : and ... ? lulu : you should know that jamie callahan was in my kickboxing class . maxie : who is she ? nathan : she 's a security guard . she works at the courthouse . lulu : yeah , and she 's a notorious gossip . i do n't want to be paranoid about judge walters , but if jamie sees you two together , i mean , it 'll definitely get around . nathan : yeah , and maxie 's chances of visitation with georgie will go down the drain . lulu : just wanted to give you the heads - up . maxie : thanks , lulu . nathan : yeah , thanks . lulu : good luck , you two . nathan : lulu 's right . we got to say goodbye ... again . patrick : if jerry and luke are working together , then this all makes sense . tracy : why are doctors so stupid about everything but medicine ? luke would never partner with jerry ! he hates him ! jerry : she 's right about that . tracy : see ? sam : wait a minute . but we ca n't discount the whole idea . luke is the one who brought us to amsterdam to begin with . patrick : luke contacted you , right , tracy ? he texted you to meet at this café . look who showed up . tracy : and is luke here ? no ! because they 're not working together . [ cell phone beeps ] tracy : it 's from luke . sam : what does it say ? tracy : `` unless someone sent the text from luke 's phone . `` jerry : someone like me . jason : it 's too bad your jason made the choices he made and could n't be a father to your son . i 'm sure he regretted it . elizabeth : why would you think so ? jason : instinct . dr. granville : excuse me , nurse webber . elizabeth : hi , dr. granville . um , this is jake . jake , this is -- dr. granville : i 'm the plastic surgeon who performed your facial reconstruction after your accident . jason : i hear you had a lot of work to do . dr. granville : work that i 'm very anxious to unveil , though i can imagine not nearly as anxious as you are . elizabeth : jake is doing amazingly well . he 's a fast healer . dr. granville : good . so , why wait ? why do n't we finally get those bandages off and take a look at what lies beneath ? nathan : i 'm gon na take off . maxie : no , no , no . um , i 'll go . you did n't even work out yet . nathan : it 's okay . i 'm -- i 'm not feeling it anymore . take care of yourself , okay ? [ sighs ] maxie : nathan , just so you know , i am not taking this lying down . nathan : look , maxie , we 've been over this , okay ? you ca n't risk your chances with georgie just to date me . maxie : no , i 'm not taking any risks . i 'm just gon na go with my initial instinct and call diane miller . nathan : i thought you reconsidered . maxie : more like i have been paralyzed by fear , but lulu helped me see that i ca n't be passive about this . nathan : i have never seen you be passive about anything . maxie : i am gon na talk to diane , and i think she can come up with a strategy to beat walters . she 's good like that . nathan : that she is . but for now , i got to go . maxie : you got to go . i know . but hey , i - i want you to know that i 'm not gon na give up on this , and i do n't think you should either . dr. obrecht : why so touchy , schwester ? madeline : i do n't like your insinuations about nina . she is fine . you 'd be better off concentrating on your own daughter . are n't you at all worried about the fact that she may have stolen a baby while you were in lockup ? dr. obrecht : do not bury your head in the sand , magda . nina was n't well at the time of her coma , and it 's not likely her condition has improved after missing 20 years of her life . madeline : for god 's sake , she was on a mild antidepressant . that is all . dr. obrecht : mild ... unless taken in large quantities . mild unless she 's been overdosed by a mother out to protect her own wealth by murdering her unborn grandchild . madeline : this is a subject on which you are grievously misinformed . dr. obrecht : of what am i mistaken ? you are proved to have poisoned nina , and the baby she was carrying died as a result . what part of that is untrue ? nina : okay , listen , travis . i did n't mean to be harsh . [ sighs ] please tell me what 's happening before i make you regret it . silas : nina could walk from the moment you met her ? you tell me everything . you tell me now . [ cell phone chimes ] travis : it started the moment you dropped mrs. clay off for her first appointment . i tried to examine her , and she slapped me . travis : aah ! travis : at first , i just thought she was resistant to the idea of therapy . but then she stood up , pushed the wheelchair aside -- perfectly fine . i did n't understand why she came to see me . she said she was putting on a show for you . then she told me she 'd pay me to keep her secret , and she handed me a very large check . silas : [ sighs ] nina supposedly does n't have any money . did the check clear ? travis : yeah , no problem . her nurse , rosalie , said nina has plenty of money , despite what she told you . silas : at any point , did you consider coming to me and telling me what she was up to ? travis : your wife scares me . i did n't want to get on her bad side . [ cell phone chimes ] silas : you 've got my attention now , nina . anna : thank you . lulu : hey . dante : hey . lulu : oh , hello . mm . dante : where is my boy ? where 's rocco ? lulu : oh , you have to ask ? murphy confiscated rocco on my way in . anna : ohh . lulu : he insisted on some face time with the little guy . anna : you 'd think with three of his own at home , he 'd have enough of kids . lulu : well , rocco adores him , so i 'm fine with it . anna : yeah . lulu : is there any news on my dad ? have you heard from patrick , sam , tracy ? dante : actually , you know what ? uh , tracy 's meeting with luke was supposed to happen right about now , so we should hear something pretty soon . lulu : good . well , any minute , we should be getting confirmation that my dad 's supposed alliance with julian jerome is a bunch of bull . anna . you know my dad . you do n't actually believe this ridiculous story , do you ? anna : i just think it needs to be followed up on , that 's all . lulu : well , it 's -- it 's impossible if you just look at the timeline . i mean , when julian jerome came to port charles and started challenging sonny , my dad -- my dad -- he was dying of polonium poisoning . he was out running around , looking for a cure . there was no time to be plotting with jerome . he was competing for a cure with jerry jacks . tracy : you have luke 's phone . oh , my god , you 've got luke , too . jerry : and the penny finally drops . tracy : this explains why he 's been so out of touch , why he did n't return any of my phone calls , that ridiculous missing - passport excuse , why he did n't come home when lulu disappeared . jerry : yes , i read your missives about lulu with concern . i take it she 's home safe and sound ? sam : like you give a damn . jerry : oh , no , no . i have fond memories of lulu when she was a hostage at the metro court . on the whole , she was far more cooperative than you were , sweet sam , but not nearly as fun . patrick : back off , jerry . jerry : oh , come on . not to worry . sam enjoys our -- sam : you know what i would like to do ? put a bullet in your skull right now . jerry : [ chuckles ] alas , if only jason was here to do it for you . sam : you shut up . jerry : oh , no . i assure you , i mean it as a compliment . jason 's the only opponent to have presented a challenge to myself . tracy : who gives a damn about jason ? jerry : well , sam , evidently . i hope you 're not too intimidated . i mean , it 's so hard to follow great love . sam : shut up ! jerry : you did love jason , did n't you ? sam : it is not fair that he 's dead and you 're alive . jerry : it 's not fair , i know . but so little in life is , is n't it ? tracy : i want to hear about my husband . you did n't strike a deal with him to get the cure . you kidnapped him , did n't you ? jerry : you got me . [ chuckles ] and i have luke . so , the question facing us all is , what am i gon na do with him ? nathan : maxie , i do n't want to give up on us either , but i also do n't want us to invest in a future that does n't have a chance of happening . maxie : well , i think we have a chance . you stood by me through everything with the unmentionable . you refused to walk away even when i was horrible to you . do n't let this be the end of the line , nathan -- at least not until i 've talked to diane . please promise me . nathan : look , the only promise that i can make you is i 'll always be there for you , no matter what happens . maxie : ow ! ow . oh , god . dr. obrecht : out with it , magda . tell me which of your crimes against your daughter i got wrong . madeline : i 'm not going to discuss my daughter with you . i 'm here to see my son . dr. obrecht : more delusion . nathan is your nephew , not your son . madeline : i raised him . dr. obrecht : we 've already been over this . why are you so eager to change the subject from your only living offspring ? what is it about nina that you 're holding back , hmm ? silas : [ scoffs ] you leaving anything out ? travis : that 's everything . i swear . well ... silas : say it . say it . travis : [ sighs ] there is one thing . travis : i 'm getting the impression you do n't care much for dr. clay . nina : oh , travis . you have no idea . travis : your wife told me she does n't like you very much . silas : [ chuckles ] no kidding . travis : so , that 's it ? you wo n't report me to chief obrecht ? silas : i 'm not concerned with you -- just nina . travis : what are you gon na do ? nina : nothing ? nothing , travis ? fine . be that way . i 'll deal with this on my own . anna : look , we have far more questions than we have answers right now about luke 's potential association with julian , but i 'm thinking that with our friends meeting with him in amsterdam , we 'll be able to shed more light on it . patrick : what are you gon na do with luke ? jerry : well , that 's the question , is n't it ? tracy : oh , stop stalling . where is he ? jerry : well , thanks to a transfusion from your hubby 's revivifying blood , i 'm feeling my oats now and have no use for my reluctant savior . tracy : then give him back . jerry : well , i 'm not one for charity , which brings me to the meeting i took such pains to arrange . clearly , luke is a thief and a liar , so he is worth something to you , as well as patrick and even sweet sam , who desires answers from him . so , tell me -- what are you willing to give in exchange for luke ? lulu : let me know when you hear anything . anna : of course . lulu : i 'm gon na go reclaim rocco and get him to bed . dante : okay . i 'll see you at home . i just got a few things to wrap up , and i 'll be right there . lulu : okay . dante : okay . anna : god , i 'm sorry this is so hard for her . dante : it is , but you know what ? she wants to know the truth , and whatever we find out about luke , we 'll deal with it . anna : yeah . all right . let 's get back to work , then . dante : yes , ma'am . you know , we may be only able to solve one mystery today . run these prints . see if we can get a hit on jake doe . dr. granville : let me know if you feel any pain . jason : i 'm good . dr. granville : okay . well ? jason : elizabeth ? what do you think ? [ next_on ] jason : ( to elizabeth ) do you recognize me or something ? [ computer beeps ] dante : ( with anna ) bingo ! jerry : do we have a deal ? britt : ( to brad ) i 'm moving out . spencer : ( to nikolas ) i 'm finally gon na have a mother ! nathan : ( to liesl and madeline ) what are you doing in my apartment ? silas : ( yelling at nina ) how do you explain what you did ! ? ? !

[ michael listens to morgan 's phone messages ] kiki : hi , morgan . it 's me . i 'm at your house , but the guard says that you 're out , so ... can you please -- can you please call me and tell me where you are ? [ sighs ] i have to talk to you . it 's important . [ scene_break ] jordan : so , we know that julian 's car was left unattended in the floating rib parking lot . keys were inside . morgan corinthos steals it and takes it for a joy ride . nathan : and then it blows up . jordan : csu is still gathering evidence from the explosion site . i just -- i hope they 're able to find some sort of signature that will lead us to whoever planted this bomb . nathan : and whoever planted this bomb is gon na give up sonny corinthos ? jordan : [ nods ] nathan : and if you 're right , then sonny went after his enemy , and he wound up killing his own kid . jordan : yeah , which means that sonny is now living out his worst nightmare . maybe it 's only something another parent would understand . you 'll know what i mean when you have a family of your own someday . nathan : it 's got to be killing dante . jordan : yeah . he insisted on working all night , but i just -- i finally sent him home a little while ago . dante : i need to be here . [ scene_break ] maxie : great ! you are just in time to help me re - imagine my wedding yet again . not that i 'm complaining . new year 's eve is the perfect night to get married . it holds a special meaning for me and nathan . although , i 'll probably spend the entire time wondering if claudette is going to show up at the door with the daughter that she claims is nathan 's . you know , nina said that she would take her . although , i think that just might be nina speak . lulu ? lulu : morgan ... is dead . [ scene_break ] nina : what do you think of that ? dillon : it 's nice . nina : yeah , i 'm dropping it off at carly 's later . it 's just crazy , is n't it ? that we think that fruit and flowers can ease the pain of losing a child . dillon : no one thinks that . it 's a gesture . we offer something to pay tribute to the family for the loss they 've suffered , not to lessen the pain , but to bear witness . nina : that 's beautiful . um , listen , i , um ... i 'm having a hard time putting my feelings into words for carly . can you help me ? dillon : uh ... i do n't think i 'd be much help right now . nina : oh . is it because kiki chose morgan over you , and you 're feeling conflicted ? dillon : you have no idea . kiki was going to break up with morgan last night to be with me . now , she 's pushing me away . morgan 's gone , and it hurts her too much to be around me . [ scene_break ] franco : kiki ? kiki , you here ? [ sighs ] come here . come here . kiki : [ sobs ] franco : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . [ scene_break ] [ michael listens to morgan 's phone messages ] kiki : morgan , it 's me again . i 've been trying to find you . this is so messed up . i need to talk to you in person , but you 're not answering my calls . i know i hurt you . i do n't know what else to do , how to get you to reach out to me . and i really do n't want to do this over the phone . you have to call me . it 's important . please , morgan . i 'm really , really sorry , but we need to talk . michael : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] jason : hey , michael . michael : hey , jason . my mom 's upstairs . she does n't want to be disturbed . and my dad stepped out . he said he just wants to be alone . jason : i came to see you , buddy . [ scene_break ] nathan : are you sure you want to be here , dante ? dante : i need to find out what happened to my brother . jordan : even if it leads back to your father ? dante : if there 's a conflict , then i 'll recuse myself . tj : mom ? jordan : tj , hey . tj : i , uh -- i got your message , but i can wait till you 're done . jordan : no , no , it 's -- it 's okay . tj : dante . i 'm so sorry about morgan . dante : i appreciate that . tj : mom , did you need my statement ? jordan : no , baby . all -- all i really need is this . [ scene_break ] maxie : what did you just say ? lulu : dante just told me . they do n't know all the details . it happened late last night . it was a car bomb . maxie : morgan is dead ? dante 's -- oh , my god . he was so young . i 'm sorry . lulu : [ sobs ] [ scene_break ] kiki : [ voice breaking ] i was ending things with morgan . i went to his house . i was -- i was dumping him . franco : it 's okay . that does n't make you a bad person , kiki . you were unhappy with morgan for a long time . kiki : i was walking away from someone i loved when they needed me the most . and it what makes it even worse -- i went to see dillon last night . i was breaking up with morgan , so i could be with dillon . it was like morgan meant to nothing to me anymore . to hell with him . to hell with being a good person or a decent person or someone who cares about anyone but myself . [ sobs ] [ scene_break ] michael : you know , you were with me all morning . you did n't have to come back . jason : i 'm just checking in . michael : yeah . taking care of me . like always . like i should have done for morgan . [ sighs ] jason : michael , what are you talking about ? you 're a great brother , especially to morgan . michael : it was my job to take care of morgan , no matter what . i chased off all the bullies , i -- i kept him out of trouble most of the time . i - i brought him home from new york when he got caught up in that gambling ring , but i was n't there when it mattered the most . morgan was spiraling out of control , and i -- i was n't there to help . i stood there in that police station , and i blamed my father and his feud with julian , but it 's not his fault . it 's mine . [ scene_break ] tj : it 's nice being outside . jordan : yeah . thank you . i , uh -- i 'm really glad that you were able to come . tj : yeah . almost did n't make it . molly 's a mess . morgan was more like her brother than her cousin . i tried my best to take care of her , but i do n't think it 's helping . jordan : oh , no , baby , trust me . it 's -- it 's helping . more than you realize . and i 'm sorry that i took you away from her . i will get you back to her soon . tj : i 'm guessing since we 're not in the office , you 're not gon na take my statement . jordan : no , we will -- we will take care of that later . i just -- i want to talk to you about the individual that we think is responsible for putting that bomb in julian 's car . tj : do you mean mr. corinthos ? jordan : yeah , he 's the likeliest suspect . [ scene_break ] dante : [ sighs ] nathan : dante , i -- i ca n't tell you how sorry i am about all of this . dante : it just , uh -- i ca n't wrap my head around this , man . i just do n't -- i know he 's not here . i know because i went to the site of the explosion , and i know he did n't survive that , but ... i do n't know . in my heart -- i just -- i ca n't . it just does n't feel real . he 's my little brother . he was working really hard , man . really hard . put his life back on track after freedman , and uh ... i just was n't there for him . and he needed -- he needed me to be there for him . and i was n't . i was just too -- too concerned about sonny . nathan : what about sonny ? dante : well , when the acquittal came back , i knew sonny was gon na go after julian . i knew it . so i went to sonny , i begged him not to do anything . and i did n't get through . i never get through to him . that 's -- i could n't stop this . it just makes me feel like a failure , man . a failure as a -- as a cop . and as a brother . [ sighs ] and now morgan 's dead . [ scene_break ] maxie : how is dante doing ? lulu : [ exhales sharply ] he 's devastated . feels like he should have been able to do something to stop it . it does n't help that it looks like sonny is the one who ordered the hit that caused morgan 's death . maxie : what ? lulu : the bomb was in julian 's car . morgan stole it to go on a joy ride . he was -- he was killed by accident . maxie : oh , my -- i can not even imagine . lulu : neither can i . maxie : [ sighs ] lulu : that 's the thing that they do n't warn you about being a parent . how terrifying it is , how if you let yourself think of all the things that could go wrong , you ca n't breathe . maxie : well , nathan 's about to find that out . lulu : because of charlotte ? maxie : you know , we do n't even know for sure if that little girl is his yet . lulu : but what if charlotte is nathan 's daughter ? are you prepared for that possibility ? maxie : [ scoffs ] i do not want claudette in our life . so , yeah . i guess that means that i am hoping this little girl is not nathan 's . [ scene_break ] nina : so , kiki thinks that if you two had n't decided to be together that morgan would still be alive . i mean , he did n't kill himself . dillon : no , he got hammered , and he stole the wrong car . nina : yeah , but , you know , that 's not kiki 's fault . dillon : well , she believes that she let morgan down , and that 's why he spiraled out of control . nina : all right , well , you have to convince her that 's not the case . dillon : i 've already tried ! trust me , okay ? kiki ca n't be around me . she does n't even want to look at me . nina : yeah , that 's not her talking . hey , listen . she 's just upset . it 's just the pain . it 's not kiki . deep down inside -- look at me -- she knows she needs you . so you have to make her see that and you have to go to her , you understand ? even if she pushes you away . [ scene_break ] franco : where is it written that breaking up with someone is selfish , huh ? the real world does n't work like that , kiki . look at my life . look at my track record . relationships end . kiki : but i did the one thing that carly begged me not to do . i let morgan believe in a life with me , and then i bailed on him for dillon . franco : i do n't see it like that . you tried really hard to be with morgan . kiki : it does n't matter . [ sighs ] [ sniffles ] morgan saw me with dillon . franco : okay . well , you 're allowed to see other people . kiki : he thought that we were having sex . franco : were you ? kiki : no ! no , morgan got that wrong , but ... we were kissing , and that was so wrong . i was unfaithful , and i was disloyal and -- i told dillon that i had n't stopped thinking about him since the nurses ' ball . i told him that i was gon na leave morgan . it 's my fault that morgan got drunk . franco : no , it 's not . kiki : it 's my fault that he stole that car . franco : it 's not . morgan has an illness . morgan should n't have drinking on his meds , and any shrink worth a damn would have spelled all of that out for him . kiki : but what i did -- franco : and there are physiological reasons why people like morgan , why people like me , why we act out , why we stop thinking rationally , and it is not your fault , kiki . and , hey , i 'm telling you this right now . you can not allow this to stop you from having a happy life . kiki : i - i ca n't do this right now . i 'm sorry . i know that you 're just trying to help , franco , but ... i just need to be by myself right now , okay ? [ scene_break ] michael : i do n't understand what happened . morgan was good the first couple months out of freedman . he seemed to have his bipolar under control . m - maybe that 's what i was trying to tell myself . i was telling myself that so it made it easier for me to neglect him . jason : you did n't neglect your brother . michael : i barely spoke to him the last couple weeks . i - i could have made sure he was on top of his meds , that he was talking to his therapist . i could have been a big brother ! instead , i was wrapped up in my own life , and i could n't see any signs of trouble . jason : hey , michael , i need you to breathe . i need you to calm down . you have a lot going on in your life . your girlfriend just passed . michael : yeah , and now my brother 's dead . he would n't have gotten in that car . he would n't have stolen that car if i was n't -- jordan : if you were there -- if you were there ? i was there . i was there . i got him to stop . but that explosion -- nobody could do anything about that . michael : if i -- if i would have gotten my dad to not go after julian , maybe the -- jason : stop . you could n't . i tried . i could n't . now , your brother -- he was a victim of a chain of very terrible circumstances , and there was n't anything that anyone could do about it , so you need to stop blaming yourself . do you hear me ? [ scene_break ] tj : you have no idea how much mr. c. loves his kids . jordan : actually , baby , i do . i do . i 'm a parent . i get it . you know , i thank god every day that you are even still here with me . tj : me too . jordan : a parent 's job is to love and protect -- that 's it . you were almost killed in that warehouse shooting with sonny . i almost lost you when all i was trying to do , what i thought , was the right thing to do . tj : i know , mom . jordan : and , you know , if i have n't said it enough , i am so sorry . i am sorry . i should have been more honest with you ... tj : mom . jordan : ... from the beginning . tj : mom , it 's okay . it 's okay . i 've forgiven you . and i hope you 'll find it in your heart to forgive me for my part in morgan 's death . [ scene_break ] jason : michael , you need to make sure you do n't get stuck in that way of thinking . it 's a trap . there 's a lot of blame to go around here , and none of it belongs to you . do you understand me ? michael : [ inhales sharply ] [ sighs ] do i have a choice ? jason : no , you do n't . you did n't kill your brother . you loved morgan . you were good to morgan . michael : well , except for when i was n't . except for when i was angry with him last year . [ sighs ] jason : yeah , well , he gave you plenty of reasons . michael : yeah . yeah , morgan did some pretty stupid stuff . trying to take avery for dad after i got custody . but you know what ? that was morgan . he did n't think things through . he relied on me for that . jason : morgan was a grown man . he made his own choices . he did n't expect you to bail him out every time he got in trouble . michael : yeah , but that 's -- that 's what you do for family . jason : michael , that 's what you 've always done . do you remember when morgan came home from the hospital ? you were the first one to hold him . from that day on , you always looked out for him . you were the first to give him love , to give him loyalty , to accept him . and every time he screwed up , and god help him , there were more than a few times , you were first to forgive him . you were the first to think he could be better . so you need to do yourself a favor and stop blaming yourself for something that you did n't do , that you had no control over . and you need to take credit for being the man that you are , for being the brother you are , and for being the person that morgan loved and looked up to . michael : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] singer : can we start again ? [ knock on door ] dillon : kiki , please let me in . we do n't have to talk about what happened between us last night . we do n't have to talk at all , okay ? just -- just give me a chance . you can use me as a punching bag if you want to , or i can just -- i can sit next to you . i can be quiet . whatever you want , whatever you need , i -- [ sighs ] i am here for you . kiki . okay , well , i 'm not gon na leave . you do n't have to answer the door . that 's fine . i 'll just -- i 'll sit out here in the hallway . at least you know you 're not alone . singer : but nothing is gained in holding on dillon : kiki , please , just give me a sign that you can even hear me right now . singer : can we start again ? kiki : [ stops the music and opens the door ] [ scene_break ] maxie : you know what ? if charlotte really does turn out to be his daughter , then i swear i am going to accept it and fully support him . lulu : well , you , maxie jones , are incredibly strong and a good person . i think that little girl would be lucky to have you as her step - mom . maxie : ooh . thanks . i needed to hear that . lulu : i do have one question , though . where is charlotte ? maxie : `` someplace safe . `` lulu : well , that 's nice and vague . maxie : that 's what claudette said . she took charlotte someplace safe , because there was a man in her life that wanted to harm them both . lulu : there 's a man that 's after claudette and her daughter ? maxie : yeah , it 's somebody that she got involved with after everything fell apart with nathan . he 's actually pretty dangerous . lulu : what makes you believe that ? maxie : because he 's someone that you know , too . valentin cassadine . [ scene_break ] dante : do we have anything to tie sonny to the bomb ? nathan : nothing yet . you know , i got to imagine your father 's beating himself up over all of this . dante : well , he should be . his actions killed morgan . i mean , i do n't even know how you process something like that . nathan : i ca n't even imagine something so horrific . dante : if anything were to happen to rocco , god forbid , and it was my fault , i -- i would -- i would n't go on living . nathan : yeah . i 'm starting to know what that feels like , and i have n't even met my daughter yet . claudette : until now . nathan , this is our little girl . this is charlotte .

[ scene_break ] lulu : i ca n't even imagine what that little girl was exposed to when valentin was in the picture . maxie : i know . at least claudette had the sense enough to get her daughter away from him . i can give her props for that . lulu : i need to go check on dante . i 'm sorry . are you going to be okay ? maxie : yes . i 'll be fine . please , go . lulu : be strong , maxie . maxie : i will . lulu : you 'll probably fall in love with charlotte at first sight . maxie : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] jordan : you had nothing to do with what ultimately happened to him . really . tj : i could tell he was drunk as soon as i saw him . i offered to drive him anywhere he wanted . jordan : but he declined , right ? tj : oh , yeah . he kept going on and on about how i needed to get out of there . then he saw the keys to julian 's car , and he said he was gon na take it , so i started talking . you know , i tried to do anything to stall or distract him . jordan : yeah ... tj : but ... jordan : and no one from the bar came out during all of this ? tj : no , it was just us . so , i 'm thinking i 'm getting through to morgan when he sucker - punches me and steals the car . i just think -- i feel like i should have grabbed the keys or something or done something to stop him , anything . jordan : tj , you know , you did something to stop him . you did everything in your power to prevent this . tj : except call the police .

[ scene_break ] kiki : i get that you genuinely want to help , which is why i opened the door , because i could n't just leave you out in the hall . but talking to you and seeing you does n't make me feel better . the last time that i saw morgan , we got in a fight about you . dillon : me ? kiki : i was at work leaving you a voicemail , because after everything that happened with your father , i just wanted you to know that if you wanted to talk , i was around , but morgan flipped out and said that i was making time for you and not him . dillon : that 's not true . you were always making time for morgan . kiki : and that 's when he told me about getting kicked out of pcu , which i would have known if i 'd made time to go see him the night before like he asked . dillon : you 're being way too hard on yourself . kiki : i tried to talk to him about it , but it just made him angrier . [ sobs ] and then he left . and that was it . that was the left time i saw or spoke to morgan , except for those stupid voicemails i left him when i was trying to break up with him , so i could be with you . michael : you were breaking up with morgan ?

everybody is still devastated by the tragic loss of morgan . dante realizes that sonny will be a primes suspect and also expresses to nathan that what happened to morgan , in which he could not intervene before it was too late makes him feel like a failure as a cop and as a brother . they both reflect that this has got to be any parent 's worst nightmare as nathan admits he 's never experienced parenthood before and is now feeling those feelings for the first time . meanwhile , maxie is with lulu , notices she 's crying and distraught and finds out , for the first time what happened to morgan and is shocked . they also talk about parenthood and the possibility that nathan may have a daughter , which maxie admits she certainly hopes will be disproven . however , right when nathan talks to dante at the station , claudette comes by with a little girl and introduces her to her dad for the first time . nathan goes off with them and takes his daughter to meet maxie . claudette is clearly not comfortable having her child meeting maxie and seeing her dad with her . maxie takes nathan aside and informs him she now knows that claudette is lying now that she 's seen charlotte for herself because she knows charlotte is not his daughter . michael plays the message kiki sent to morgan which his brother will never be able to receive , of her guilt and lack of loyalty to morgan along with her intent to dump morgan in order to be with dillon . he goes to confront her while she 's with dillon and she cries , still in terrible pain and guilt over the situation and concludes she can not be with dillon because he will always be a reminder to her of morgan getting killed . franco talks to kiki and tries to console her while nina talks to dillon , encouraging him not to give up on kiki nor feel guilty for what happened to morgan . at that point , franco goes to see nina and they both seem to understand her need to have a child , where it did not click before . jordan talks to tj who informs his mom about all he witnessed right before morgan took the car that blew up . she informs her son she hopes what has happened to morgan will awaken him once and for all , to what a danger sonny is and why she does not want him around sonny nor wanting to follow in his footsteps .

[ scene_break ] carly : he was all keyed up , jason . you know how he gets . he openly admitted he 's going after karpov . you do n't seem surprised by -- jason : i was hoping he would take some time to cool off , to think about it , maybe realize there 's too many unanswered questions about the shooting . carly : okay , he did n't . he 's going after kate 's shooter . what are we going to do about it ? jason : all we have is a shell casing , the fact that sonny broke a deal with karpov . if karpov shot kate to send a message , why is he going to deny it ? why stick to truce ? it does n't make any sense . carly : so you believe karpov . jason : no , i know that if we move against him , i 'm putting a lot of people at risk . i need to know for sure that karpov 's guilty . and i thought if anybody could get to sonny , it -- it could be you . carly : that bond sonny and i had was broken the night michael was shot . i really thought he had learned from that .

'cause you promised , right ? olivia : right , and i 'm gon na keep my promise . i 'm just saying . dante : okay . good .

[ dante laughs ] olivia : and a father very soon when you start shooting out hundreds of babies for me . dante : yeah , all right . one step at a time . that means first getting the hell out of this hospital , okay ? then i can focus on getting back into my life with the woman i love , and then i can shout it from the rooftops like you mentioned , okay ?

[ sighs ] a lot of things have been stirred up recently . you know , i found out aiden was my son , that -- that elizabeth and i had created this life together after everything we 've been through , and it -- it just threw me for a loop . ethan : yeah . that is a lot to take in . [ sighs ] lucky : yeah , it is . i mean , i 'm still trying to wrap my head around it . and , then , you know , there was the drug case . and then when i got shot up , elizabeth was there for me . she saved my life . and it 's just been really easy to fall back into old patterns with her , and -- and that 's not good for either of us . and i ... told her as much last night . ethan : oh - ho - ho . i bet she did not take that well . lucky : no . i mean , she wants more . she wants to be together as a family , and i told her that it 's not gon na happen . ethan : [ inhales sharply ] ooh . that 's gon na leave a mark , man . lucky : just the thought of reconciling scares me to death , man . ethan : that is your head talking . what does your heart tell you ? lucky : that there 's still something there . it 's as strong as it 's ever been . [ scene_break ] lulu : him being shot is a big thing , but there 's lots of little things , too , you know ? i ca n't -- i ca n't tell you how many times he 's come home with bruises or bloody or he 's told me stories about being in a high - speed chase . it 's always dangerous . if i was his wife , i would have to put a smile on every morning and wish him a good day and cover up the fact that i 'm worried that he 's never gon na come home . i do n't want to jump out of my skin every single time the phone rings . i just do n't -- i do n't think that i 'm built that way . maxie : being a cop 's wife is n't easy , but , i mean , if you love a cop , do n't you kind of have to make that adjustment ? [ chuckles ] i just -- i think that limited time together is better than no time at all . lulu : so , you 're saying , like , better to have loved and lost ? maxie : something like that . [ cell phone rings ] [ sighs ] it 's matt . lulu : take it . maxie : no , i can get it later . lulu : no , talk to him . it 's fine . i 'll wait . maxie : hey , you . matt : hey , you back . you want to go on a cruise ? maxie : are you serious ? matt : meet me at the hospital as soon as you can . maxie : you mean right now ? matt : the boat is gon na leave in about an hour , but i think there 's a little leeway since i 'm the guest of honor , so ... maxie : okay , i 'm totally lost here . matt : [ sighs ] you know those boats that go around the harbor ? well , patrick chartered one . it was originally for robin 's birthday , but since they could n't make full use of it , they 're throwing a party for me in -- in -- in my honor . maxie : okay , well , that sounds like fun , but i ca n't make it . matt : really ? okay , uh [ sighs ] maxie , w - why not ? maxie : because i 'm up to my ears here . i have , like , zero time to find the guy for my feature , and , i mean , kate really will fire me . matt : okay , this is for my paper getting published . it 's very important to me . maxie : i know , and i - i promise you that i 'll throw you a private celebration that you 'll never forget , but i really ca n't make it , so have fun and i 'll talk to you later , okay ? bye . matt : mmm . mm - hmm . mm - hmm .

[ scene_break ] lucky : it 's just everything that 's happened over the last few months , it 's -- it 's put elizabeth and me back in the same orbit . and it -- it 's like -- it 's like having two pills under the table , and i 'm just afraid that if i stay in town , i 'm gon na take the drug that is elizabeth and set off god knows what . ethan : well , that covers what you 're running from . but where are you running to ? lucky : well , it 's the letter from siobhan that i told you about . ethan : oh , yeah . yeah . um , saint -- ah , what was it ? st. maggie -- lucky : st. margaret 's church . ethan : right . st. margaret 's church and something about a rosary and a - a sign from the great beyond . lucky : yeah . that one . ethan : i thought you said that was crazy . lucky : either way , man , i mean , that was crazy for me to stay here , you know ? i mean , wh - what have i got to lose ? ethan : well , then , how long are you gon na be gone ? lucky : as long as it takes . i see you got the painting restored , huh ? ethan : oh , yeah . now you 'll never even know that she got ... lucky : you know , i do n't know if it 's the whole cassadine connection , but that portrait has always creped me out a little bit . ethan : hmm . lucky : what are you doing with it ? what do you plan on doing with it ? ethan : well , i was probably gon na take it back to wyndemere . lucky : why ? wh - why would you want to go back to that place , man ? seriously . ethan : [ laughs ] because wyndemere is awesome . i mean , come on , man ! there 's something about it intrigues me . it 's this broody , old house alone on the water with secret passageways and ghosts whispering in the halls . i mean , come on . be -- be real now . how often do you come across a bona fide haunted house ? lucky : you know what they say about wyndemere ? ethan : hmm ? lucky : that people are not haunted there . they 're hunted . ethan : ooh . [ laughs ] lucky : you like that ? ethan : oh , very pleasant . thank you . lucky : and some very good people have lost their lives in that place and lost their minds , too . ethan : [ laughs ] you 're gon na blame the house ? lucky : no . not completely . i 'm gon na blame the cassadines . look , ethan , i 'm just saying , you can have fun , you know , play your games , whatever . that 's fine . but just remember who you 're dealing with and what they 're capable of . and it 's not just people like us . i mean , they do it to themselves . i mean , look at nicolas , you know ? he 's one of them . he tried to set off on his own , have his own life . he got sucked back in . and sooner or later , his whole life fell apart . and that 's just -- it 's the cassadines , man . it 's -- it 's their thing . ethan : well [ sighs ] how fortunate that i am not a cassadine . lucky : no , you 're not . you 're luke spencer 's son , and do n't forget it because helena wo n't . ethan : [ laughing ] all right . you 're kind of creeping me out . so you do n't think you 're gon na stick around and , like , watch my back , right ? lucky : no . no . i - i do n't willingly go into helena 's lair . i spent too much time there . besides , it 's dad 's dance , and it 's just much too retro and -- and complicated for me , so ... ethan : [ laughs ] yeah , we need to get bell - bottoms and a perm , right ? very well . i shall go it alone . because helena 's not even there , right ? i mean , probably , you know ? well , i ... i hope .

robin : one bar . pick up . please , please pick up . [ cell phone ringing ] patrick : [ sighs ] [ ringing continues ] patrick : hello ? robin : patrick ? patrick , it 's robin . patrick , i 'm alive . patrick : hello ? robin : patrick , can you hear me ? hello ? patrick : hello ? who is this ? jerry : a touch of that precious elixir for you ... and , assuming you do n't drop dead ... the rest will be for me . luke : are you sure you do n't want to share ? jerry : go home or go big , as you people say . i intend to go big . tracy : not today , you 're not . hand it over . the only one getting cured today is luke . nikolas : i 'm sorry . i do n't understand . i know that your mother used to be his henchwoman or whatever you want to call it , but if that was the extent of the relationship , why would faison care about your son ? britt : because faison ... is my father . nikolas : he 's what ? what ? britt : cesar faison is my father . faison : i 'm looking forward to my freedom . anna : i 'm gon na do what i said i was gon na do half an hour ago , which is go in there and prove to you that whoever 's in there is not me , because i can assure you there 's only one anna devane . oh , my god . who are you ? ! obrecht : the question is , who are you ? robin : patrick , it 's me . i 'm alive . patrick : [ staticky ] hello ? robin : oh , god . please tell me you can hear me . can you hear me ? patrick : i - i ca n't hear you . you have a bad connection . can you call me back ? robin : [ staticky ] patrick , it 's me . it 's robin . i covered for you with epiphany , but we 're pretty swamped here . sabrina : i 'm sorry . i was with patrick in his office . felix : ah . of course you were . [ chuckles ] sabrina : i know . you 're probably so sick of hearing about my love life . felix : no , no , no . it 's fine . i mean , it seems like today is kind of a big day for you guys . sabrina : [ sighs ] you think ? felix : i could n't help noticing patrick was walking around the hospital without his wedding ring . i take that as a good sign , right ? that means he 's ready to move on with you and put robin behind him . patrick : robin ? robin : [ staticky ] patrick . patrick : who is this ? robin : patrick , it 's me . i 'm alive , and i need your help . patrick : robin . is it really you ? jerry : it 's been a long time . tracy : stop talking . put that down . jerry : or what -- you 're gon na shoot me ? seriously , luke . i mean , was this the best you could do in way of a rescue ? luke : i would n't test her , man . tracy can be lethal when she does n't like you . tracy : and i do n't like you -- not one bit . jerry : [ chuckles ] oh , i have no doubt you despise me , but you 're not ruthless enough to pull the trigger , so why do n't you put the gun down before someone really gets hurt ? britt : that 's why she took ben . she 's taking him to see my father . nikolas : yeah , but she 's wanted not only here but in europe on multiple felonies . why would she take the risk of getting caught ? britt : you heard her . she said we 're all gon na be a happy family . nikolas : and you think that that meant you and ben and her and faison ? britt : yes . faison 's attention is the only thing that matters to her . she 's using ben as a pawn . giving faison a grandson is the only thing she has over anna . officer : please , tell me that you are sisters . anna : i have a sister , but that 's not her . officer : somebody needs to tell me what 's going on right now . obrecht : i do not know . it 's obvious that she is in league with faison , which makes it even more imperative that i transfer him to a more secure facility . anna : she 's an imposter . obrecht : no . she is an imposter . i am anna devane . anna : she 's lying ! she 's wearing a highly sophisticated prosthetic mask . oh , there 's only one person in the world that would go to such lengths to see a psychopath like faison . is n't that right , dr. obrecht ? tracy : i 'm offended that you think so little of me . jerry : and you 'd kill me in cold blood ? tracy : i 'd call it comeuppance for what you did to luke , and my brother alan is dead because of you . i have no doubt that my father and alan are looking down right now and betting that i am going to pull the trigger ! luke : edward had to cough up part of an $ 88 million ransom . never come between a quartermaine and his money . tracy : you poisoned an entire town . my father never recovered . he died a couple of months later . i have every reason in the world to kill you . but i wo n't -- if you give me the antidote . what 's it gon na be ? you , sabrina . sabrina : [ chuckles ] why ? felix : because you did n't let the issue of patrick 's wedding ring fester . you put everything on the table and told him exactly how you felt . sabrina : actually , patrick 's the one who brought it up . felix : well , even better . it means you both are on the same page . sabrina : well , after carlos raised the subject . felix : mm , right . carlos -- the bad - boy ex from puerto rico . i know he said something to you about patrick still wearing his ring . sabrina : actually , he said it to the both of us . felix : wait , wait , wait . hold up . patrick was in the room ? sabrina : yeah . felix : how can i provide wise counsel if you do n't provide me with the pertinent details ? out with it . sabrina : okay . so , carlos shows up here at the hospital , and he 's just got , like , a minor scratch on his shoulder , so he 's waiting for me to dress the wound , the injury , and then he immediately takes his shirt off -- felix : wait , wait . and you did n't call me ? okay , look -- it 's probably good for dr. dreamboat to have to fight for you a little . sabrina : yeah , except carlos did n't fight fair . he threw it in patrick 's face that -- that he was still wearing his wedding ring , and he basically said [ sighs ] that patrick would always put robin first . oh -- and he said that i was a glorified babysitter with benefits . felix : no , he did n't ! sabrina : yeah , he did . anyway , later that night , that 's -- that 's when he decided to take his ring off . felix : well , see ? he wanted to show you that carlos was wrong . he loves you . right ? sabrina : right . yeah . um ... yeah . it 's just that every time we take one step forward ... patrick takes two steps back . sometimes it hurts how much his heart still belongs to robin . i found out it was her birthday today , and it 's clearly gotten to him . patrick : damn it ! hello ? ! robin ! robin : patrick , it 's me . it 's really me . patrick : robin , where are you ? i 'm gon na come and find you . robin : jerry jacks has me . he and this crazy doctor took me from faison . [ static ] i have your son . he 's with me . patrick : what ? wh - what ? what about the sun ? robin , i ca n't hear you . can you get better reception ? robin ! [ cell phone beeps ] robin : no . ugh ! no ! [ grunts ] jerry : well played , ms . quartermaine -- and mr. spencer . luke : you can thank the lady for this one . tracy : i want you to fill up that syringe . load it up ! all of it . throw it on the bed . now go around to the other side and stay where i can see you . luke : yeah . okay . do it , tracy . tracy : are you ready ? luke : you usually go for the jugular . this time , just get that vein in my wrist . jerry : i would n't do that if i were you . if you let her inject you with that , you could end up being a dead man . britt : we have to call the police . we have to tell them that my mother 's taken ben to switzerland . nikolas : britt , let 's not get ahead of ourselves , okay ? we do n't even know for a fact that your mother took ben to faison . britt : i do ! she 's obsessed with faison . nikolas : okay . well , first off , he 's in steinmauer , a supermax facility in switzerland . britt : [ sighs ] nikolas : and even if your mother did n't have a bounty on her head , she 's not authorized to see faison . there 's no way she can get close to him . britt : look , i know my mother , okay ? she wo n't let anything come between her and my father . she 'll find a way . officer : who is dr. obrecht ? anna : well , she 's faison 's demented second in command -- an international fugitive wanted for multiple crimes in my jurisdiction , the latest of which is the kidnapping of a baby ! is that why you had to masquerade as me to get in here ? officer : but how ? anna : i told you she 's wearing a mask ! obrecht : does this look like a mask to you ? anna : an impressive one , to be sure , but a mask nonetheless , just as faison did for months when he was impersonating duke lavery . that is insane . anna : do n't you read any of the dossiers on your prisoners ? faison very successfully impersonated another man just the same way that obrecht is impersonating me right now . it 's true . liesl obrecht is in this room . but she is the imposter . i am commissioner devane . now shoot her before she shoots you . anna : do n't listen to her ! she 's a psychopath ! you have information on my daughter . officer : enough . drop your weapons . obrecht : good job , officer . now arrest her ! officer : both of you ! anna : no ! i ca n't ! obrecht : she 's gon na kill us both . officer : drop the weapons now , or i will shoot both of you and let my superiors sort it out ! anna : okay . [ breathing heavily ] officer : good . now rise -- slowly . get up -- now ! obrecht : if you insist . felix : tickets for robin for a world tour , but she died before they got to use them ? sounds like a nicholas sparks novel . sabrina : yeah . ca n't argue with you there . patrick 's kept those tickets the whole time . felix : man . that 's a pretty heavy reminder of the future that he and robin never got to have . sabrina : he tore them up today . he said he 's ready to start new memories -- to make new memories and go on new adventures with me . felix : that 's huge . sabrina : yeah . he even asked me to come up with a list of places that we could go together . felix : see , that 's pretty romantic right there . sabrina : and incredibly sweet and -- and so generous . felix : yeah . sabrina : it 's just -- felix : no , no . stop `` it 's justing `` and make your list already . sabrina : felix ... felix : what ? take the good doctor at his word . i mean , if the man wants to whisk you away , let him do it . i suppose tokyo and rio are out . sabrina : and paris . felix : there 's an easy fix to that situation . you and i will vacay there together . sabrina : and sip wine while eating baguettes ? felix : i 'm talking about the real local scenes , like shopping at colette , eating at aux 3 eléphants , and we 're definitely checking out the marais . sabrina : [ chuckles ] you 're doing this on purpose . felix : is it working ? sabrina : i get it . i get it . we 'll always have paris . and as for patrick and me , there 's a whole world out there for us to explore together . patrick : no . [ tone pulsating ] patrick : robin . [ sighs ] call me back . call -- yes . hi . i need you to dial the number that just called this phone , please . can you -- can you get me the number that just called this phone ? robin : this is not happening . i know patrick heard me . i know he did . i have to get him back . ben : [ fussing ] robin : come on . do n't worry , baby . your dad heard me , and he 's gon na come find us , okay ? okay . we got a signal once . we can do it again . we can do it again . [ cell phone beeps ] robin : yes ! did you hear that ? we have a signal . [ cell phone beeps ] robin : no . no . not the battery . not the battery ! damn it ! tracy : we do n't take orders from you . luke : that 's not what he means , tracy . jerry : ah , it 's good to see someone 's paying attention . you were over there playing the dutiful guard long enough to see that my intention was to use luke as a guinea pig of sorts -- to test a small dose of the cure to make sure it 's safe . tracy : is that because you 're not sure it 's gon na work or because you do n't trust the doctor who made it ? jerry : well , either way , it could mean that you 're going to kill him instead of save him . now , you 've traveled a long way . are you sure you want to give him a potentially lethal injection ? luke : i 'm dying of polonium poisoning anyway , tracy . you 're my only chance . better to go out fighting , right , bonnie ? tracy : right , clyde . jerry : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . this dose is also my only chance , as well . please . tracy : well , not that you deserve to live , but if it works , you can get your doctor to make another batch . jerry : there 's no other batch . it took her almost a year to make a single dose . luke : well , then , it 's too bad for you . jerry : but you might kill him , you know ? it 's completely untested . now , if you give half to me and it works , we could both be cured . tracy : you just got through telling me that you were only able to create a single dose -- enough to cure one person ! a half - dose is n't gon na do anything for either of you ! jerry : well , it 's worth a shot , is n't it ? to mitigate the odds that a single dose could be fatal . luke : no . i 'm a betting man -- all or nothing . do it , tracy . tracy : you ready ? luke : yeah . let 's go . jerry : no ! no ! no ! no ! luke : [ gasps ] [ gunshot ] anna : [ gasps ] obrecht : ahh ! [ both grunting ] nikolas : i called in a few favors . some old associates of mine helped fund the prison where faison is being held . they 're making some calls and making sure that she is nowhere near steinmauer . britt : thank you . nikolas : you 're welcome . look , are you sure your mother is crazy enough to take ben to faison ? britt : oh , yeah , i 'm sure she 's crazy enough . my mother would do anything for faison . that 's the reason for my existence . my mother was hopelessly in love with faison , and he basically looked at her like a trusted assistant . so , she got pregnant with me in hopes of winning him back . nikolas : okay . so , you -- you told me what you did to patrick -- getting pregnant , pretending that ben was his . so , that was her idea ? britt : yeah , she was speaking from experience . why she thought it would work with me when it did n't for her , i will ... never understand . faison never wanted a daughter . i was n't the heir he wanted -- just another reason why i was such a disappointment . [ sighs ] nikolas : britt , why -- why did n't you just tell me about faison ? britt : why did n't i volunteer that port charles ' most hated man is my father ? i was ashamed . i thought that you would be horrified . nikolas : horrified ? certainly you heard about the cassadines before we met . i mean , there are plenty of horrible stories floating around this town about my relatives , specifically my father . stavros was n't exactly the bastion of sanity , if you know what i mean . britt : you still had laura . nikolas : no . no , not -- no , i did n't . look , i love my mother dearly , and we 're very , very close now , but she was my father 's captive as much as she was his wife . when she escaped , she left me behind . britt : still , your goodness has to come from somewhere . i 'm sure it was your mother , even though she was n't around . nikolas : perhaps . britt : which kind of proves my point . you have one evil parent . i have two . anna : justice is served , bitch . [ door closes ] anna : [ gasps ] faison : bravo . you certainly showed her . britt : [ sighs ] i should have never come to wyndemere . nikolas : as i recall , you did n't have much of a choice . britt : well , i - i should n't have gotten you mixed up in this . i mean , my mother 's lies , all of my lies -- it 's -- it 's wrong . nikolas : it 's okay . i - i did n't want you to have to go through it alone . britt : once again , i 've lied to you . i 'm sorry . nikolas : do you really think who your parents are matters to me ? britt : yeah , it should . i mean , it scares the hell out of me . i feel like i 'm tainted . nikolas : look at me . look at me . you are an amazing doctor with a great , albeit wry , sense of humor , and you 've been a great friend to me ever since the first time we ran in to each other at those fireworks -- really . britt : no , i feel like it 's just -- it 's been one disaster after another , and ever since i met you , i 'm just hanging on by my fingertips . nikolas : well , the fact that you can be as strong and as stable as you are , given how you 've grown up , is ... britt : surprising . nikolas : ... amazing . i was -- i was -- i was gon na say , `` amazing . `` britt : thank you ... nikolas . if i 'm strong at all right now , it 's -- it 's because of you . nikolas : we 're gon na find your son . i promise . faison : sweet anna , i knew i could never hold a candle to you . anna : do n't come any closer . faison : do n't you fear me . you know i would never hurt you , my love . anna : shut up . i do n't want to hear another word about your sick obsession . all i want from you are answers . faison : okay . by all means . what do you want to know ? anna : robin . i just -- i just want to know if she 's alive . robin : patrick heard me , and there 's nothing that will stop your father from coming to find us , okay ? everything 's gon na be okay . everything 's gon na be okay . patrick : no , i 'm not asking you for the number . i 'm asking you to put me through . well , somebody just called me from that number , so , obviously , it 's registered somewhere . [ sighs ] forget it . wh -- felix : i was just thinking , robin was so well traveled , there 's tons of places that could be considered hers . puerto rico would , well , be considered yours . you 'd be the expert . you could show patrick all the hidden treasures . sabrina : that 's actually not a bad idea . patrick : [ bangs on the elevator call button ] sabrina : patrick ! what 's wrong ? patrick : i need to get to the pcpd . they need to track a number for me . sabrina : wait . wait . i do n't -- what are you -- patrick : come on . sabrina : who called you ? what number ? patrick : robin . robin called me . robin : even if patrick did n't hear me , it 's only a matter of time before jerry realizes that the cure is working and he 'll let us go home , assuming jerry keeps his word . [ sighs ] i just wish that there was some way i could know for sure that patrick heard me . i mean , he had to , right ? he said my name . [ sighs ] if only that stupid battery had n't died . i just needed a little bit more time . [ sighs ] jerry : the hell with you , spencer ! if i 'm going to die , so are you ! ohh ! ugh ! luke : nice shot , bonnie . tracy : i was aiming for his leg . jerry : [ grunts ] tracy : how are you feeling ? luke : the same . uh ... i ca n't tell anything different yet . tracy : can you walk ? luke : well , let 's see . you lead the way . i 'll follow . jerry : enjoy your trip back to port charles , providing you get past the guards and off the island . what a terrible waste , huh ? we 'll never know if the cure actually worked because you 're gon na be shot and killed within a matter of minutes ! tracy : i really should have killed you , but the polonium is gon na do it for me , and it 's gon na be a lot slower because you deserve every agonizing second ! luke : i 'll give your regards to bobbie . jerry : [ sighs ] tracy : take this . luke : [ breathing heavily ] jerry : guard ! guard !

[ grunts ] robin : you ca n't do this to me . jerry : well , the point in fact is the bastard who stole the cure left us in this unfortunate position . robin : you said you would set me free . jerry : i had every intention of doing so . robin : jerry , you can still do the right thing . you can still let me go . jerry : [ chuckles ] the right thing ? i 'm afraid that 's a luxury i ca n't afford , even for $ 88 million . so , it 's back to the drawing board for you , and you better do it right now , 'cause the clock 's ticking . go ! sabrina : you said it yourself -- it was a bad connection , right ? maybe you misheard . patrick : no , no , no . i know what i heard . it was her voice . i know her voice . she said , `` it 's -- it 's me -- robin . `` [ crying ] god . it could n't have been her . sabrina : patrick , i 'm so sorry . patrick : i know her voice . i know it was -- i know her voice .

nikolas : spencer ? [ chuckles ] what 's all this ? spencer : i just want everything to be just perfect for britt . nina : [ sighs ] ohh ! watch where you 're going , you big oaf ! britt : excuse me ? dr. obrecht : why are you so eager to change the subject about your only living offspring ? what is it about nina that you 're holding back ? come now , sister . you know i 'm das beste at keeping secrets . i will take it to my grave . tell me what you 're hiding about my niece . jerry : what are you willing to give me in exchange for luke ? to you , luke is a national treasure money ca n't buy , but ... you 're gon na have to come up with something . shall we commence the bidding ? dante : if the bandages on this guy 's face are any indication , he might not look like he used to , so fingerprints are probably the best place to start . anna : good . while i 'm waiting to hear about luke , you can find out who this mystery man is at general hospital . jason : well ? [ monitor beeping ] jason : elizabeth , what do you think ? why are you looking at me like that ? dr. obrecht : we are sisters , genetically programmed to understand each other . if you ca n't tell me , who can you tell ? madeline : my god ! are you just gon na keep on me like a buzzard on roadkill ? ! dr. obrecht : if that 's what it takes . madeline : all right , fine ! if that 's what it 's gon na take to shut you up ... i 'll tell you ... all about ... poor nina . britt : nina ! nina : oh , gosh , britt . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry about that `` oaf `` comment . britt : you 're -- you 're walking , or running is more like it . nina : yeah . i , um -- i 've con -- improved considerably since i last saw you . anyway , i -- excuse me . britt : wait . i 'm sorry . i 've been meaning to reach out . did you take my advice and talk to dr. collins ? nina : who ? britt : the psychiatrist i recommended . travis : are you gon na report me to dr. obrecht , have me fired ? if you expect me to return the hush money mrs. clay gave me , i 'm sorry , but it 's gone . i used it to pay off my student loans and -- silas : you 're the least of my problems . right now i have to figure out what to do with my wife . nina : i 'm sorry . why would i need to see a shrink ? britt : you were very upset when i told you that you were in early menopause and would n't be able to conceive . i - i thought counseling might help . nina : well , guess what . i do n't need counseling . you know why ? because you were wrong . i got a second opinion , and i 'm perfectly capable of giving silas a child . nikolas : you 're certainly chipper . spencer : `` chipper `` does not begin to cover it . nikolas : i 'm glad . it 's been a long time since i 've seen you like this . spencer : you know , i thought getting emma back would be the best thing that ever happened to me , but i was wrong . getting britt back is . nikolas : and why is that ? spencer : because i 'm finally gon na have a mother . booyah ! jason : is it that bad ? elizabeth : no . n - no . god , no . you look really good . jason : are you sure ? 'cause you have a strange expression on your face . elizabeth : i 'm just surprised -- pleasantly . not that i was expecting you to look like freddy krueger or anything . do you know who that is ? jason : yeah , i know who that is . elizabeth : okay . well , you do not look like him . jason : thank you . elizabeth : more like -- i do n't know . you have a brad pitt thing going on . dr. granville , you did a really amazing job . dr. granville : well , thank you . it was n't easy reconstructing a face i 'd never seen before . i hope you recognize yourself . jason : yeah , you and me both . thanks , doctor . dr. granville : good luck . jason : okay . he 's gone . elizabeth : huh ? jason : dr. granville -- he 's gone . you can tell me the truth now of what i really look like . anna : yeah . yeah . i understand . good . okay . thanks . dante : was that about luke ? anna : no . i have n't heard anything yet . dante : you know , this meeting 's supposed to be going down right about now . anna : i hope nothing 's wrong . dante : so do i , for lulu 's sake . patrick : tracy , you can not negotiate with this guy . sam : for god 's sakes , he 's the reason we all almost died two years ago . jerry : yes , how is the water supply in port charles these days ? sam : you can not trust a word that he says . jerry : i 'm wounded , sam . sam : will you go to hell ? jerry : so feisty . patrick : shut up , jerry . jerry : i missed her . tracy : if we 're all done with the foreplay , can we get back to my husband ? the last time jerry came to port charles , he almost killed luke . i do n't want him to finish the job . jerry : i wo n't , provided i get what i want . patrick : which is ? tracy : what else ? he wants money . jerry : not in the literal sense . sam : just spit it out already . jerry : what i want is far more valuable than money . i want your company . i want elq . jason : what do i look like ? elizabeth : it 's kind of hard to explain . jason : but not bad ? elizabeth : no . you 're a very handsome guy . jason : then why are you looking at me that way ? do you recognize me or something ? madeline : first of all , you have to swear to me that you will never , ever tell nina what i 'm about to tell you . dr. obrecht : you have my word . madeline : [ sighs ] all right . well ... this is the unfortunate truth . nathan : what the hell is this ? madeline : james . nathan : no , it 's nathan . what are you doing in my apartment ? dr. obrecht : i came over to finish our conversation and was just as stunned as you when madeline opened the door . nathan : you let yourself in ? how ? ! what , you know how to pick locks now ? madeline : no . i managed to convince the super that it was important to me to surprise my son , and then he had no problem letting me in . nathan : well , that 's all fine and good , but i have a problem with it . how the hell did you get out of prison ? madeline : they could n't very well hold me when nina was n't really dead . nathan : oh . and nakamura -- you remember him ? madeline : my very excellent defense team got that case overturned . nathan : what about the rest of it ? you -- you tried to inject sam morgan with some drug , for god 's sake . madeline : that was unfortunate , was n't it ? nathan : yeah , it was , for her . madeline : somehow , my lawyers found a loophole . nathan : there was a laundry list of lesser included offenses . madeline : i know . i know . but the important thing right now is that i am finally out from under the burden of two murder charges , and i 'm [ sighs ] i 'm here to try to make amends with you and to make amends with nina . nina : listen , i do n't mean to be rude . i just have an appointment to make . dr. obrecht : no . hold on . hold on . who gave you the second opinion ? because your test results clearly indicate early - onset menopause . it 's completely irresponsible of any doctor to tell you you can have children . nina : do you know what else it is , britt ? it 's completely none of your business . brad : what 's her problem ? britt : i do n't even know where to begin . nina : travis . travis : [ groans ] nina : what did you say to silas ? travis : i should n't be talking to you . nina : no . what happened in there ? what did you say to him ? travis : nothing . nina : tell me . travis : nada . nina : damn it . [ door opens ] nina : hi . silas : i thought you went home . nina : i did n't like the way we left things . uh , was that travis i just saw ? silas : yeah . yeah , that was travis . we had a very interesting little conversation . patrick : what do you want with elq ? tracy : oh , please do n't tell me you 've gone soft on julian now that he 's sam 's long - lost daddy . sam : no . no one said that . tracy : julian and jerry are partners ! patrick : we do n't know if that 's true . sam : and even if it is true , so ... tracy : [ sighs ] ava and julian came to port charles desperate to get their hands on elq . it is the perfect money - laundering vessel . but their plan failed miserably , so jerry has a plan `` b `` -- hold luke hostage ... and the ransom is elq . jerry : well , you 're much smarter than i gave you credit for . after that tryst with joe scully jr. , i had my doubts . tracy : so , i 'm right . jerry : yes , you 're right . julian and i want elq in exchange for sparing luke 's life . so , the question is , do we have a deal ? tracy : just one problem . elq is n't mine to give . dante : this thing 's slower than the traffic in times square . [ computer beeps ] anna : no , there you go . it 's ready to be entered into afis now . there are over 100 million prints in there . dante : that 's scary . anna : and only 70 million of them are perps . dante : only , huh ? anna : [ chuckling ] yeah . the rest are various background checks -- people who foster children or work with them , legitimate gun sales , that kind of thing . well , you know all this . i do n't know why i 'm telling you that . dante : well , with any luck , this guy will have been printed for some job . anna : or ... he 's a criminal and he 's conveniently forgotten all his crimes . dante : well , we 'll know soon enough . jason : truth ? elizabeth : i think we 've earned it . jason : i was hoping you 'd recognize me . elizabeth : yeah . me , too . jason : but you do n't ? elizabeth : for a second , i - i thought i did . your eyes are -- you have n't looked in the mirror yet ! for all we know , you 'll take one look at yourself and ... you 'll remember everything . here . so ... is anything coming back to you ? do you know who you are ? nikolas : we do n't talk about your mother much , do we ? spencer : not really , but i hate that i never knew her . nikolas : yeah . me , too . spencer : is it strange that i miss her anyway ? nikolas : no . no , not at all . look , your mother is a huge part of your life , whether you knew her or not , okay ? i mean , love is like a -- well , it 's not like . it is . it 's -- it 's an energy . and it does n't just go away when a person does . hey , your mother loved you very much . spencer : i love her , too . nikolas : i 'm really sorry that i do n't bring her up more . do you wish i did ? spencer : sometimes , but it was easier when britt was here . nikolas : you did n't feel that -- that missing piece so much ? spencer : but when she left ... nikolas : i know . you can say it . when i threw her out ... spencer : it really hurt . nikolas : i know it did . and i 'm sorry . i should have been more sensitive to what you were going through . i should have listened to you more . spencer : it 's okay , dad . nothing i would have said would have helped you forgive britt any faster . it took a lot more than talking to make that happen . nikolas : what do you mean by that ? brad : britt , listen -- i went home to clean the apartment for lucas . he 's coming over later . britt : oh . what else is new ? brad : kind of a lot . look , i do n't know how to tell you this , but ... all your stuff is gone . britt : what ? brad : your toiletries , clothes , everything . britt : oh , my god . brad : and none of my things were touched . it 's really weird . britt : it 's not weird . i 'm moving out . brad : wait . what ? britt : everything happened so fast , i - i have n't had a chance to tell you . brad : you 're moving out ? britt : and back in with nikolas ! brad : cassadine ? britt : [ sighs ] brad : does he know ? britt : yes , he knows ! brad : i 'm sorry . i just -- this is all ... sudden . britt : yeah . tell me about it . brad : wait . so ... he wants you back ? britt : i owe it all to you and spencer -- and , well , my mother , too . brad : wow . all those double shifts you kept throwing at elizabeth must have really paid off , huh ? britt : yeah . it gave me the time i needed to spend with nikolas . brad : think he 'd be pissed if he found out ? britt : probably , but not nearly as pissed as he would be about the whole spencer thing . he was worried sick when his son `` went missing `` and i knew where he was and just ... let it go on . brad : yeah , well , you have to make sure nikolas never finds out -- like , ever . nathan : there are not enough amends in the world to make up for what you did to nina . dr. obrecht : i 'm afraid i agree . how does one come back from nearly killing their own child ? madeline : i never meant to hurt her . i was trying to protect her from silas . you know that . look , nina loves you . you could convince her to see me . nathan : yeah , i could , and she might listen to me . madeline : oh , that would be s -- nathan : but i 'm not gon na . if i had my way , you would never see her again . my god , mo -- madeline , you took away the best years of her life , and worse ! you made her lose her baby ! you know she grieves every day for the loss of that child -- my niece or nephew ? ! madeline : you still think of her as your sister , then , do n't you ? nathan : it happened yesterday for nina . she has n't gotten over the loss of that child , and she probably never will . now get out . madeline : james -- nathan : i said , `` get out `` ! nina : why were you talking to travis ? silas : oh , i just wanted to thank him for all the terrific work he 's done with you . nina : despite the fact that i missed so many of my p.t . sessions . silas : and yet he got you back on your feet in record time . he must be working some kind of magic , huh ? nina : he 's so incredible . the p.t . sessions i did make it to , he was relentless . we got twice the work in half of the time . silas : well , and it shows . nina : yeah . does n't it ? i 'm living proof . i 'm so glad to be out of that chair . silas : i 'll bet . nina : i feel like i 'm finally myself again -- i really do -- and for that , i am forever grateful to travis . silas : yeah , you should be grateful . he 's been lying for you since the day you first met . jerry : i 'm so sorry that you ca n't give me elq . tracy : wait . where are you going ? jerry : to make a widow out of you . tracy : it 's not my fault . because of their suspicion of luke , most of my family , including my son , voted me out as ceo . jerry : so , who 's in charge of the company -- ned ? tracy : michael corinthos . jerry : young michael ? oh . that changes things . tracy : it does ? jerry : yes . to ouster sonny 's son makes the deal even better . come on . there 's something you must be able to do . after all , your husband 's life depends on it . tracy : i control 9 % of the company . jerry : 9 % ? tracy : i secured the shares from sam . she split jason 's shares between me and aj . jerry : oh , sweet sam -- so generous . well , at least you have something to trade , although 9 % is not nearly enough . tracy : i can get more from the other shareholders . sam : no . that is not a good idea . tracy : really ? was n't there a time when you would have done anything for robin ? and what about you ? given the chance to save jason , you would have jumped at it , no questions asked . well , luke is no less important to me . so , is that a deal ? will you take my 9 % and a promise to get more ? jerry : i will . we 'll find a way to take the company from there . so , shall we shake on it ? tracy : not until you tell me , where is my husband ? anna : it 's gon na take about an hour and a half for afis to run those prints , you know . dante : yeah , i know . anna : well , why do n't you just let it do its job and come back in the morning ? i mean , the results are n't gon na go anywhere , and i know lulu and rocco would love to see you . [ computer beeps ] dante : bingo . do n't mind me . the doctor just asked me to clean up . elizabeth : great . thank you . nothing ? jason : i do n't know this person . elizabeth : okay . it 's not uncommon . jason : [ scoffs ] to not recognize your own face ? sam : jake , you 've had a traumatic brain injury . it 's gon na take a while for everything to fall back into place , including your memory . jason : it 's just so weird ... elizabeth : of course it is . jason : ... so strange . i look in this mirror , and i see nobody . elizabeth : you 're somebody to me . yeah . morgan 's bandages have been removed . nurse webber does n't know who he is . neither does he . memory 's obviously still awol . so , what do you want me to do with him ? nikolas : it took more than us talking to get me to forgive britt ? like what ? spencer : it ... just meant she really had to prove herself . nikolas : and do you know why ? spencer : because of ben . nikolas : yes . she lied to me about something very , very important , and when that happens , when someone that you love very much is dishonest with you , it 's very difficult to trust them again . okay ? i gave britt my heart , and she did n't treat it very well . spencer : but she 's been trying to make up for it . nikolas : yes . she has . the past few months , i 've really been able to count on her . spencer : so , you trust her now ? nikolas : i am trying to trust her ... because , deep down , i think britt 's a good person . spencer : me , too . nikolas : and especially because i know how important she is to you . spencer : you wo n't regret it . nikolas : i sincerely hope not . spencer : so , what does this all mean ? we asked britt to move back in with us , but will she stay forever this time ? britt : you 're excited , right , having your apartment back ? brad : yeah , no . totally . britt : do n't have to worry about me walking in on you guys . brad : we only got carried away that once . britt : well , now you can get carried away whenever you want . and me -- oh , i can finally escape hearing `` the golden girls `` 24/7 . brad : well , i wo n't have to trip on your shoes anymore . britt : or fight me for the shower . brad : or eat so many god - forsaken vegetables . britt : see ? i knew you 'd be happy to get rid of me . brad : i 'm not happy to get rid of you . britt : you 're not ? brad : no . you 're my best friend . i 'm gon na miss you . dr. obrecht : come . you 're upsetting my son . leave him be . madeline : i 'm not going anywhere . nathan : oh , yes , you are . you 're gon na go back to that sterile apartment you call a home . you 're gon na go back to manhattan . i 'm sure it misses you -- madeline : i do n't have a home anymore . i have nothing . nathan : do n't give me that . madeline : you do n't believe me ? call the building . they 'll tell you . nathan : tell me what ? madeline : i lost the apartment . i 'm homeless ... and penniless . nina : travis told you that he 's been lying for me ? silas : he told me everything , nina . nina : well , i hope you did n't believe a word that he said . silas : enough ! i know you 've been able to walk since the day you showed up in port charles . nina : okay , listen . listen . silas : or should i say , `` the day you wheeled in to port charles , `` so fragile and helpless , in a wheelchair that you never needed ? ! nina : can we talk ? can we talk , please ? silas : but you were never fragile or helpless , were you , nina ? you were never any of those things . you 've been lying to me with every breath that you took ! nina : let me explain . silas : how ? i mean , really . i - i would love to know this . how do you explain what you did ? ! nina : i was afraid . silas : [ sighs ] why does that sound so familiar ? wait . you used that line on me about two hours ago . nina : it 's not a line . i - it was real then . it 's real now . silas : do you really expect me to believe anything you say ? nina : yes , i do , because it 's the truth . silas : i 'm pretty sure you have no idea what that word means . nina : oh , wow . do you know what it means ? do you know what the truth means ? did you know what it meant when you were coming home after your `` extra shifts `` -- in other words , doing ava jerome ? ! yeah . you 're really crafty at lying , too , are n't you , silas ? silas : 20 years ago , and good luck turning this around on me . nina : i 'm not turning it around on you . i had n't seen my husband in 20 years ! in 20 years , i had n't seen you . i did n't know how you 'd feel about me . i did n't know if you loved me , if you ever loved me . silas : and you decided to do this ? ! nina : what else could i do ? yeah , i decided to do this ! i did n't know if you would -- if you would keep me in your house . i had to pretend that i was weak , and then it was a chance for us to reconnect . silas : what about the money ? you paid travis thousands of dollars . meanwhile , i - i 'm trapped moving you in to my house because you told me you were broke . nina : is that how you felt -- trapped ? silas : like a caged animal . nina : wow . silas : `` wow `` is right . nina : i 'm your wife . you should have welcomed me into your house . silas : you know the funny part of all this , nina -- you know , travis , the money , all the lies ? i think i could have forgiven you for all that . but i 'll never forgive you for destroying sam and me . tracy : we 've agreed . you can have my 9 % . jerry : you mean sam 's -- excuse me -- jason 's 9 % . how would jason feel about giving away his inheritance ? sam : he sure as hell would not want you to have it . tracy : who cares ? i control the 9 % . we have come to terms . now tell me where my husband is . i want to see him immediately . jerry : i give the orders here , not you . do you really think i 'm gon na take you at your word ? you do n't get luke until i get the official stock certificates . tracy : they 're in port charles . jerry : then why do n't you hop on the next flight and round them up ? only then will you get your precious husband -- not a minute sooner . ms. cassadine , what do you want me to do about morgan ? helena : keep an eye on him . now , if he remembers anything about himself , contact me right away . [ computer beeps ] helena : well , i must go . let 's just hope that ms. webber 's continued presence does n't jog his memory and foil the entire plan . elizabeth : i 'm sorry . this must be very frustrating . [ monitor beeping ] jason : i thought once i saw myself , i might -- i do n't know -- remember something . elizabeth : i was hopeful , too . but , like i said , this is completely normal . okay . well , not normal normal , but there 's no cause for alarm , really . we 'll figure it out . for all we know , dante already has . he 's got your fingerprints . he could be finding a match as we speak . dante : criminal . anna : oh , he has a record ? dante : looks that way . anna : okay . pull up his id . let 's find out who he is . nathan : and since when does being a millionaire mean you do n't have any money ? dr. obrecht : perhaps she 's lying ... the way she did to you your entire existence . madeline : for you , you ungrateful bitch ! nathan : stop talking . now , look -- i know you did n't have any money because your assets were frozen because of the charges , but now that they 've miraculously been dropped -- madeline : my assets were never frozen . nathan : what ? madeline : where are you getting your information ? nathan : from nina . she says she 's broke because she does n't have access to the family money . madeline : nina controls the family money . she has ever since she woke up . nina : i never meant to break up you and sam . silas : if you lie to me one more time , i swear -- nina : i did n't . silas : there was this one night i tried to take her out , and you called me and you told me you had fallen out of your wheelchair . i got to hand it to you -- you 're good . my heart leapt into my throat when i saw you lying there on the floor like that . nina : it did ? that means you still care . silas : no ! it means nothing 'cause it was all fake ! nina : yeah , but you had feelings for me , and you still have feelings for me . silas : son of a bitch . why did n't i see it ? why did n't i see it ? nina : i 'm sorry . silas : no , you 're not . nina : you know what ? you 're right . i 'm not sorry . no ! silas : for once , you told the truth ! nina : no , i 'm not sorry , 'cause i wake up from a coma , a 20-year coma , to my husband frolicking all over this town with his mistress . silas : she was never the -- then it was you . it was you at the hospital . you saw me go up on the roof with sam , and you followed us up there , knowing we would never suspect you because you were in a wheelchair ! nina : silas ... silas : deny to me that you did n't overhear sam telling me about drake ! and did n't you run right down those stairs and tell that reporter ? ! nina : that 's a little far - fetched . silas : that 's it ! nina : that 's a little far - fetched and crazy . silas : that 's it . you wanted sam to blame me for the leak , and she did . that was the final straw . nina : it 's not my fault that sam does n't trust you . silas : i vouched for you ! i defended you ! i - i told her you would never do something like that ! i told her i knew you ! nina : you do know me . silas : i 've never seen this person before in my life . you keep telling me i 'm your husband . if that means anything to you , if i ... mean anything to you at all ... look me in the eye and say it . nina : yeah . silas : `` yeah , `` what ? nina : i did all those things you 're accusing me of . sam : how do you know that he wo n't kill luke once he has the shares ? patrick : tracy , this is a bad deal . jerry : correction -- it 's the only deal . take it or leave it . tracy : i 'll take it . but if anything happens to my husband ... jerry : make it official and everything will be fine . pleasure , as always . sam : you are revolting , as always . jerry : ah , sweet sam in such a sour mood . what 's the matter ? is your new amour lacking ? sam : he is worth 10 of you . jerry : are you sure ? he does n't look very lively . what 's he gon na do -- stare me to death ? patrick : well , you 're the tough guy that brought two bodyguards . jerry : one word of advice -- the space cake makes you a little too mellow . bye . boys . [ bell jingles ] patrick : you okay ? sam : are you ? i mean , he was pulling out all the stops to mess with your head . patrick : i 'm not gon na get into a measuring contest with this psychopath . the only way to beat jerry is to not play . sam : yeah , exactly . did you hear that , tracy ? if you go up against him , you 're gon na lose . tracy : all i care about is getting my husband back . patrick : tracy , we ca n't trust him to bring you luke back . this is a scam . tracy : does n't it make more sense that jerry is the head of the jerome organization , not luke ? patrick : what about the phone call , okay ? dante said his undercover agent specifically heard luke 's voice . tracy : it does n't matter ! he was holding luke hostage ! he forced him to make that call ! sam : except the undercover informant was not the only person who heard luke 's voice . so did spencer cassadine . spencer : will you make britt leave again ? nikolas : i do n't want to , spencer , but we 're just gon na have to see how things go , okay ? i just started trusting britt again , and without trust , everything falls apart . spencer : like last time . nikolas : i 'm really going to try , spencer . i am . and if britt does the same -- who knows ? -- maybe it 'll work . but i have to be absolutely certain that she 's always honest with me . spencer : and if she is , will you ask her to marry you again ? britt could be my mother . we could be a family . nikolas : that 's certainly a possibility , yes . come here .

[ chuckles ] how ? maxie : the how is not important . [ chuckles ] what 's important is -- valerie : i 'm not having sex with dillon . maxie : you 're not ? valerie : no . dillon 's a great guy , and we have a lot of fun , but we 're not currently nor have we ever previously had any sexual relations . maxie : well , if you 're not worried you 're having dillon 's kid , whose baby are you worried that you 're carrying ?

sonny arranges to have a formal wedding to carly in the hospital chapel and all of their extended family attend and support them . they are happy until dante gets a call from the police station that it appears maxie jones and dillon quartermaine discovered a dead body floating in the harbor which was identified as carlos rivera . ava and paul know that this recent development will cancel out any suspicion that carlos shot sonny since people now know it 's impossible if he 's dead . they agree to work together for their common cause to bring sonny down . anna knows she will have to cover her own tracks given her secret . as far as she knows , only sloane is aware that she killed carlos and neither she nor anyone else knows that paul has murdered sloane . anna goes to find ava and tells her she knows ava is lying to say she `` knows `` that carlos shot sonny . it could n't have happened . so , she concludes , she knows that ava and/or julian and/or someone else are covering for someone somewhere . there is also suspicion going around that valerie is pregnant . however , she 's `` assured `` dante as well as dillon , then nathan and now maxie that she is not pregnant . lulu still has no suspicion that her husband is keeping any secrets from her about his previous involvement with valerie nor hears anything about the suspicion that she could be pregnant .

carly declares she is done with sonny and can not ever be with him again , asks michael to help her move all her stuff out of sonny 's house and support her decision and reason to do what she must do . she declares to sonny that it means nothing to her that he `` reconsidered `` going after julian and called off his plans when morgan is dead because of his actions . kristina comes by and makes it clear to michael that she does not approve of his mom turning on their dad and blaming him for what she believes is julian 's fault and not sonny 's . josslyn overhears their conversation and demands to know what this secret is regarding her step - father 's involvement in the death of her brother . michael then explains to her that julian 's car got bombed . morgan just happened to be driving his car when it blew up , and there 's obvious reason to conclude how , why and from whom there 'd be a bomb intended for julian . at that point , josslyn declares to her mom that throughout her life , she 's heard , from many people , all the deep dark secrets about sonny which she did not understand . she now understands perfectly and declares she blames him for the tragic loss of morgan . sam talks to her mom about what has happened , urging her not to judge or assume the worst about sonny , realizing he 's devastated about the loss of morgan , as they all are . alexis , however , clarifies to her daughter that , given it was julian 's car that was bombed , if only he had been driving , it would make their lives so much easier . julian , however , goes to crimson to declare to both nina and curtis that instead of vilifying him , they need to know that sonny tried to murder him and ended up murdering his own son . he asks curtis to investigate that for him , reminding him if he uncovers evidence which brings sonny to justice for murdering his son , curtis might have a bright future in law enforcement , which motivates curtis to help him with what he wants .

[ scene_break ] lulu : you were n't around ; you were taking care of mom . you ca n't walk in here and start making judgments . luke : am i wrong ? did n't this bastard zero in on you like a shark after chum ? logan : mr. spencer , with all due respect , that is not what happened . luke : baldwin is pissed at me , so once again , he gets back at me through you . logan : when lulu and i were dating , scott did n't even know i was his kid . luke : baldwin 's obsessed with your mother , you know that , so he used her as bait to put you with this . logan : how about you give your daughter a little bit of credit for making -- luke : did he sleep around on you or not ? lulu : we 're not discussing this now . i 'm going to see you at home . luke : he made a bet with maxie jones that he could get you into bed , am i right ? logan : i 'm not proud of it , but , yeah , i did . luke : yeah , and you made good on the bet . you slept with her so you could get `` maxie `` in the sack . logan : i hate what i did , but you do n't hear me making any excuses about it . luke : you walked away from this chump once . so why did you give him a second chance ? lulu : it 's not that cut - and - dry . luke : gumdrop , if it had n't been for the deal that baldwin cooked up , you never would 've given this loser a second chance . would you ? lulu : probably not . [ scene_break ] jax : nikolas assaulted both logan hayes and jerry . carly : they probably provoked him . jax : according to witnesses , nikolas was out of control . carly : okay . if nikolas stabbed jerry , why did n't jerry tell the police ? jax : jerry told me that he made emily 's and nikolas ' life a living hell -- carly : okay , wait a second . i know that your brother cares about you , but he does n't care about anyone else . he 's a liar , and he 's lying about this . jax : he thought that it was in his best interest not to upset emily and jason , since they 're all united in the threat against anthony zacchara and trevor lansing . carly : and emily would crumble if she found out that jerry was saying all this because it 's ridiculous . jax : no , maybe not . emily was the one who told me about nikolas ' erratic behavior in the first place . she thought that it might be kind of -- some kind of side effect from the poison that jerry gave him . she was frightened , especially after jerry told her about the stabbing . nikolas apparently does n't remember any of it . carly : he does n't remember anything ? jax : no . these outbursts seem to happen in a kind of blackout state . so -- carly : do you think he killed leticia ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : listen , i understand why you 're hesitant . i mean , it 's your dream night , right -- black - tie ball , waltzing by candlelight ? i completely understand why you would n't want to do it . emily : nikolas , it sounds magical . i 'm just concerned that it might be too much for you . nikolas : well , what could go wrong when i have the most beautiful woman in the room on my arm ? emily : nikolas , there are going to be a lot of people there , some of whom you 're not on the best of terms with . nikolas : okay , i 'll shorten the guest list -- i wo n't invite my grandmother -- you win . emily : nikolas , i 'm serious . as the host of this ball , you 're going to be under a lot of stress . what if somebody tries to cause a fight or start an argument -- nikolas : you worry too much . [ emily sighs ] emily : you have a medical condition . nikolas : yes , i know , and i know that i have to figure out what 's happening to me . but you need to stop imagining that i 'm on the brink of uncontrollable rage all the time . if i -- if i really felt that way , i would never plan an event like this . emily : okay , what if we try a happy medium ? nikolas : what do you mean ? emily : we postpone the ball until after you 're diagnosed . nikolas : no , i 'm not postponing anything . [ scene_break ] lainey : so if you are telling me that you want to be convicted of murder , then i will go to the court and tell them that you 're not in your right mind , and your lawyer can plead diminished capacity . cody : i hate the idea of being locked up . but i 'd hate to be called incompetent even more . lainey : so , what , you 're willing to sacrifice 10 , 20 years , possibly the rest of your life for what , pride ? cody : honor , duty -- a good solider is supposed to be willing to die for all of them -- your father could 've told you that . lainey : what is this , some kind -- some retroactive redemption ? i mean , you want to send yourself to prison to make up for having posttraumatic stress disorder ? come on . cody : i 'm going to tell the truth -- i did for roger what i would want someone to do for me in the same situation . i have no guilt , no remorse . and if a court sees fit to send me to jail for it , i can live with that . lainey : what if i ca n't ? look , you only met my father because of me . you helped him more than once , and i treated you with hostility and suspicion , when i should 've been grateful . cody : you thought i was trying to score points to get pills , and you were right . i 've threatened you , i 've grabbed you , i 've tried every way i could to manipulate you . do n't go soft on me now , dr . winters . lainey : you know , i have a lot of friends at the hospital , fellow professionals who i respect . really compassionate people who put themselves on the line for me and my father , and i owe all of them . but i owe you more . my father wanted to die , and you let him when i could n't . cody : i wanted to help your father , sure , but i also wanted to reclaim some of my self - respect . so you can thank me if you want . but you 're going to -- you 're going to have to let it go . lainey : do you have a lawyer ? cody : a -- a public defender . uh , i think he 's been out of law school about six months -- he took about 10 minutes to find my folder in his briefcase . lainey : can you do me one more favor ? cody : it depends . lainey : tell your public defender not to enter a plea . tell him you have private counsel . cody : i do ? lainey : i 'm going to get you an attorney , cody paul , and it 's going to be the best one money can buy . and i am going to do everything in my power to make sure that you go free . [ scene_break ] carly : why would nikolas kill leticia ? jax : i do n't think it 's premeditated , i think he 's doing these things without knowing about it . carly : all right , let 's say nikolas randomly targeted leticia . it does n't explain the text messages sonny 's getting from the killers , or my phone being hijacked and someone taking photos of us . jax : and i asked jerry if there was any side effect from the poison he injected him with , and he said he did n't know , so -- carly : that 's helpful . jax : you know , maybe nikolas is doing these things in an unconscious state . carly : the text messaging and the photos ? jax : i do n't know . he 's developed , like , a separate personality , one that 's capable of doing things that he would never do in his right mind . [ scene_break ] emily : i 'm only suggesting that we postpone the ball until we figure out why you 're losing time , nikolas . just let patrick run some more tests . alexis : what tests ? nikolas : nothing , nothing serious . alexis : patrick drake is a neurosurgeon . you would n't be seeing him if it were n't serious . what kind of tests ? what are you talking about ? nikolas : okay , alexis -- to see if i 'm having any side effects from the poison that jerry gave me . alexis : does this have something to do with these outbursts , these mood swings that you 've been having ? nikolas : i 've been under a little stress , so what ? alexis : do n't brush this off ; i 've been worried about you . why did n't you tell me you were concerned ? nikolas : oh , i do n't know -- maybe because i thought you 'd automatically jump in and defend jerry like you always do ? alexis : stop doing that . i 'm very well aware of what jerry 's done to you . this is not about jerry , it 's about you . you have assaulted him repeatedly , and i 'm concerned that if you keep doing it , you 're going to find yourself in serious trouble . nikolas : oh , really ? so what are you implying ? alexis : you 're seeing patrick drake , so , obviously , there 's something serious going on here . emily : look , alexis , nikolas does n't need a reason to be angry at jerry -- or you , for that matter , for continually defending a man who held us hostage , caused my father 's death , and poisoned nikolas . [ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't -- i do n't roll over when someone threatens my family . trevor : nobody wins if this turns into a war . sonny : why are you even involved ? you got a firm in the city with plenty of legit clients . why are you in bed with a mob boss ? trevor : do n't change the subject . sonny : it ca n't be the money because -- at least , not on its own -- you 've been rich all your life . oh , i know what it is -- the power . trevor : if anthony zacchara wants to get you or your family , one way or the other , sooner or later , he will . it 's inexorable . sonny : at the end of the day , trevor , zacchara is a businessman and a father like me . trevor : you do n't get it . sonny : tell zacchara i want to meet with him face to face so we can talk before somebody else dies . [ scene_break ] luke : sweetheart , i do n't need you to fight my battles for me . baldwin pushed you at this loser -- lulu : stop calling him a loser , dad , you do n't know him . luke : i know that he slimed up out of baldwin 's stagnant gene pool -- that 's all i need to know . lulu : okay , you 've made your point , and i 'm going to take it from here . logan : look , all right , i 'm not the type of guy girls take home to meet the family . i did n't think your daughter would give me the time of day . but she saw something in me . luke : i 'm not surprised . when she was little , lulu used to drag home every stray cat , injured bird , and three - legged dog she could find , and you are just one more in a long line of projects . logan : look , i made a huge mistake . maybe lulu will forgive me , maybe she wo n't . but she does make me want to be a better person , all right ? she 's one of the few good things that has ever happened to me , and if i can even come close to being that to her -- luke : are you buying this garbage ? lulu : you do n't want me fighting your battles , fine , but you can not fight mine for me . this is my life , and i 'm going to deal with it on my own . [ scene_break ] jason : you need to stay away from lulu . johnny : do n't worry ; she 's more trouble than she 's worth . jason : see , why are you lying to me right now ? johnny : why are you warning me off lulu if you 're going to kill me anyhow ? [ phone rings ] jason : yeah ? sonny : you still got johnny zacchara ? jason : yes , i do . sonny : here 's what i want you to do . [ scene_break ] lainey : you want to be a mom ? that 's exciting news . robin : well , i 'm not pregnant yet , i 'm trying to get that way -- as soon as i find the right father . lainey : i take it patrick is not an option ? robin : no , he 's horrified , judgmental , condescending -- i mean , you name it . huh . he thinks that my wanting to be a mother is just a phase -- oh , no , correction -- i want to be a mother to help me get over our breakup . lainey : hey , i 'm not defending patrick . robin : thank you , because he just completely humiliated me in front of leo at the metro court . lainey : wait , you talked to leo about being your baby 's father ? robin : yeah , i raised the possibility . lainey : yeah , but you barely know him . robin : i know that he 's intelligent , i know that he 's good - looking , he obviously has excellent genes to pass on . but do n't worry , he turned me down -- he left a vapor trail when he left the restaurant . lainey : hmm . sorry . robin : and there was patrick , lecturing me about how i should feel and what 's appropriate . i swear , i almost turned around to the bartender and said , `` can i pay you to get me pregnant ? `` but i did n't do that because that would 've just proved what patrick was saying , so -- lainey : yes , wise choice . [ robin sighs ] robin : i really want to do this , lainey , i 'm not going to give up . but before i resort to a sperm bank , i would like to at least explore the possibility of my baby 's father being someone that i respect . lainey : then you should . robin : i 'm sorry . you wanted to see me before i inundated you with all of my drama . [ lainey sighs ] robin : so what 's up ? lainey : i 'm hoping you can recommend a lawyer . [ scene_break ] luke : i 'm heading out to find baldwin . tracy : why ? luke : i 'm going to do something , something to make the special prosecutor arrest me so his deal with my daughter will be over . tracy : it 's not that simple . luke : tracy , there 's no way i 'm going to let baldwin force my daughter into a romance with his bottom - feeding kid . tracy : you miss the point -- he 's not forcing lulu into anything . [ scene_break ] logan : you okay ? lulu : yeah , i guess . logan : thanks for defending me with your dad . lulu : well , my dad 's hated scott for most of his life , so he automatically assumes you 're trash because you 're his son . logan : yeah , that part i 'm clear on . huh . lulu : still , it could 've been worse . logan : really ? because i 'm -- i 'm not sure how ? he called me worthless . uh -- he said i 'm not fit to breathe the same air as you . i actually considered saying , `` why do n't you take a swing at me ? `` but then i figured , why put ideas in his head ? lulu : my dad 's too smart to punch you . logan : `` too smart `` ? lulu : it 's the same reason he wo n't forbid me to see you , because he knows it 'll make me want to do the exact opposite . logan : ah . so if your father bashed my face in , he would actually be doing me a favor . that 's good to know . lulu : i 'm just saying it 's why he did n't lay down the law . he basically just gave his opinion and said i would be a fool not to take it . logan : i 'm willing to be a fool . how about you ? [ scene_break ] carly : hey . jason : hey . carly : where 's johnny ? jason : he 's gone . carly : you did n't kill him -- jason : no , no , carly , i did not . carly : good , because i 'm starting to rethink him as a suspect right now . jason : okay , great , because we 're not discussing this right now . carly : do n't tell me that we ca n't talk about it because it 's business , okay ? jason : why ca n't you just listen to me ? oh , you ca n't because you 're carly , so just stay out of it . carly : look , jerry jacks was stabbed , and nikolas is the one who did it . jason : jerry -- jerry told you that ? carly : he 's not someone that i choose to believe , ever , okay ? but nikolas has been having these freaky bouts of rage that he does n't remember . he 's having blackouts , and he does n't remember stabbing jerry . jason : well , probably because he did n't do it . carly : well , your sister 's worried about him . she 's been covering for him for weeks . she even went to jax and asked him if there could be some kind of reaction to that poison that jerry gave him . all i 'm saying is emily thinks that this could be dangerous and something bad could really happen . i 'm wondering if something bad already did . jason : nikolas did n't kill leticia . [ scene_break ] alexis : obviously , my presence at wyndemere has caused a bit of tension . emily : no , alexis , i did n't mean to imply that you 're not welcome . nikolas : i need not remind you that the reason you are here is because carly 's nanny was murdered , and as a result , kristina 's father is probably planning some sort of mob war . alexis : we can move back to the lake house . sonny will increase security , we 'll be protected . nikolas : no , you 're -- you 're safer here . alexis : i do n't want to impose . nikolas : you 're not imposing . okay , you 're right . we 've all been a little tense , we 've been through a lot this year , which is why we need a reason to celebrate , i think . as i was telling emily , i 'm planning a ball here at wyndemere on october 31 . alexis : a ball ? nikolas : yes -- for emily , who inspired the concept . emily : yeah , i -- i told nikolas that , um , my idea of the perfect party was the bacchanalia , so he 's planning something similar -- a formal ball with everybody dressed in black and white . nikolas : yes . i 'm also making an endowment to the hospital to help protect against future takeovers -- and the endowment is in alan 's name . emily : nikolas -- nikolas : yeah , i have more than a few surprises up my sleeve . emily : thank you . alexis : october 31 is a couple weeks away . do n't you think it 's a little soon ? maybe you should wait till things settle down a bit ? nikolas : no , no -- emily made the same suggestion . but i just think we need to set all our problems aside and enjoy ourselves for once . jax : hi . sorry to interrupt . um -- i would like to speak to nikolas in private , if that 's okay . nikolas : sure . uh -- emily , do you mind taking alexis to dinner for me ? emily : no . shall we ? hmm ? alexis : we 're not finished . jax : hey . nikolas : so , jax , what 's so private that you ca n't speak in front of alexis and emily ? jax : i do n't want alexis to know that you stabbed my brother . [ scene_break ] lainey : he 's been locked up for weeks . his public defender has n't even managed to set a hearing date -- which is probably a blessing in disguise , because he 's determined to send himself to prison . robin : for killing your father ? lainey : `` if `` cody turned off my father 's life support , it 's a gift . robin : well , no one gets to decide just to end another person 's life . lainey : my father was n't living , he was existing , and i need a lawyer who can explain the difference to a jury . robin : `` you `` need ? lainey : obviously , i 'm emotionally involved . i mean , you do n't get more personal than trying to help the man who `` allegedly `` ended your father 's suffering . robin : okay , so this is just about your father ? you have no interest in cody ? lainey : what are you trying to get at , robin ? robin : okay , i have a well - deserved reputation for hiding in my work , but you put me to shame . you are always so calm and supportive and just a little bit distant . i 've never seen someone affect you as much as cody has . lainey : look , i do n't want to date the man , i just want to get him acquitted for murder . robin : okay , well , maybe i 'm completely out of line , but let me just put this out there . there 's a certain kind of man who 's dangerous , but you may see another side of that person , another selfless , possibly sweet side , and it 's easy to get pulled in and think that that dangerous part does n't matter somehow or will go away . lainey : look , i am the shrink , remember ? i know that cody 's dangerous . i would n't go anywhere near a personal relationship with him . all right , thank you for caring . robin : maybe i just want some equality -- my personal life is such a mess at the moment , i was just thinking maybe yours is , too . lainey : well , at least you know what you want . so , about a lawyer , i was thinking about asking alexis davis . but she was a prior patient of mine and i really do n't want to impose on that relationship . robin : what about diane miller ? according to my uncle mac , she 's a shark . lainey : but it was my understanding that she worked exclusively for sonny . robin : i 'm sure sonny could recommend that diane represent cody . i mean , if it 's any indication what she did for jason , she 'll get cody acquitted . and then you can figure out how you really feel about him . [ scene_break ] tracy : lulu fell for logan 's rebel act , hook , line , and sinker -- i was there , i watched it . luke : and you did n't tell her he was as phony as a $ 3 bill ? tracy : i tried . but in case you have n't noticed , she 's as stubborn and pigheaded as you are . luke : well , it 's nice to know that you can feel remorse . tracy : i do . in fact , i 'd even go so far as to say i apologize for ever digging into scott 's past and revealing the fact that logan is his son . he is a messed - up kid and lulu wants to save him . luke : well , she never would 've fallen for it if baldwin had n't dangled the bait . tracy : she 's old enough to make her own decisions , and she will resent you if you interfere . luke : she 's just trying to save me , spanky . it 's made her a sucker . baldwin has got to be stopped . tracy : you 're right . lulu was looking for a reason to get back with logan , and scott handed it to her on a silver platter . but , luke , there 's not a damn thing you can do about it . [ scene_break ] lulu : if you 're waiting for me to rush into your arms and declare undying love , do n't hold your breath . logan : your father thinks i 'm working you , okay , pulling out the playbook and studying all the moves . lulu : of course he does . logan : i would never treat you that way , lulu . lulu : you already did . logan : oh -- can we get over the maxie thing , please ? i 'm talking about where we are right now , all right ? lulu : just put yourself in my dad 's position . he -- he comes home after months of being away , and he finds out his daughter liked a guy who made a bet about sleeping with her , and then the payoff was sleeping with maxie . logan : oh -- okay . the facts sound horrible . so how do i convince you i 'm being sincere ? how -- how do i make you understand that everything out of my mouth is not some ulterior motive ? lulu : it 's just going to take time , i guess . logan : would you at least believe that i would never hurt you again ? lulu : i believe that now . but an hour from now , months , years -- i do n't know . you just change so fast one minute to the next . logan : what i felt for you will never change ; it 's only going to grow stronger . [ scene_break ] carly : jax thinks it could be just a coincidence that leticia died when the zacchara family started making trouble . jason : that would be a big coincidence . carly : but think about it -- the text messages from the killer -- jason : mm - hmm . carly : weird pictures being taken from my phone of me and jax ? it does n't sound like the mob . jason : it does n't sound like nikolas , either . carly : well , what if nikolas developed a second personality during his blackouts , and that his condition is just some chemical reaction to the poison jerry gave him ? jason : i do n't know about that . carly : ca n't you just for one second think `` what if `` ? what if nikolas is doing things he would n't normally do ? jason : okay -- fine , fine , i could believe that nikolas finally lost it with jerry , grabbed a knife , and stabbed him . carly : okay . jason : and i could believe that jerry is a liar . carly : what about the rest of the stuff , jason ? jason : i -- i do n't believe that nikolas rigged your phone , sent the messages , and does n't remember it -- it takes too much thought and planning . carly : what if he 's doing it -- jason : `` what if `` nothing . carly , you 're on the wrong track -- nikolas did n't kill leticia . [ scene_break ] jax : jerry told me you stabbed him and i believe he 's telling the truth . nikolas : hmm . with all due respect , i think you have a bit of a blind spot for your brother . jax : you assaulted him on more than one occasion at the metro court , did n't you ? nikolas : yeah , i had a fight with him , but that 's a far cry from putting a knife in someone 's chest . jax : i think your fits of rage are getting worse , nikolas . nikolas : you know , it was n't that long ago that you kept my son from me by pretending to be his father , and now you come into my home and accuse me of stabbing your brother and lying about it . i think -- i think you and jerry are the liars here . jax : do you remember visiting jerry at the hospital ? you asked him what happened in the alley that night . nikolas : mm - hmm , and he lied about it -- was n't me who attacked him . jax : are you absolutely sure of that ? nikolas : jax , your brother has enemies all over this world , any one of them could 've attacked him -- it was n't me . jax : because if you 're not sure , nikolas , i think you should see a specialist -- before you have another blackout and do something that you ca n't explain away . [ scene_break ] luke : the first step is to get rid of the kid , then baldwin has to stop hiding behind him and come after me directly . tracy : oh , do n't look at me -- i already tried to bribe him to leave town . luke : maybe you did n't offer him enough . tracy : luke , the harder you push logan , the more he will defy you . the more he defies you , the more lulu will romanticize him . luke : god , how can she be such a patsy ? tracy : everybody has warned her about logan , just like everybody warned laura about you . luke : this is not the same . tracy : no ? let me think about that . lulu likes to push the envelope -- check . lulu craves adventure -- check . luke : all right , all right . it 's the spencer in her . tracy : well , i 've been tearing my hair out over it . luke : well , now you 've given up , thrown in the towel . tracy : no , i 'm just facing reality . they have a connection ; they 're not going to let anybody stand in their way . luke : look , baldwin never got over the fact that laura left him for me . now he thinks he 's going to get revenge on me by pushing my daughter into the arms of that worthless kid of his ! lulu : could you give me a little credit for knowing what i 'm doing ? [ scene_break ] man : i told you to stay away from port charles . johnny : i was taking a drive , that 's all . man : you left without telling me !

[ scene_break ] sonny : why 'd you grab johnny zacchara without checking with me first ? jason : i wanted to question him about leticia 's murder . sonny : what 'd he tell you ? jason : he said he did n't have anything to do with it . sonny : you believe him ? jason : well , i think that he knows something about leticia 's death . i mean , why 'd you want me to let him go ? sonny : because trevor seems to think that johnny zacchara is the key to dealing with his father . [ scene_break ] nikolas : well , hello . hey , your husband was just here , so i can only assume that you , too , are here to accuse me of stabbing jerry . well , my answer is the same -- i did n't do it . carly : there 's not a jury in the world that would convict you , after everything he did to you and emily . nikolas : yeah . well , i think jerry got what he deserves . at the risk of sounding like a broken record , it had nothing to do with me . carly : how would you know ? are n't you having blackouts , losing time ? nikolas : that 's none of your damn business . carly : you do n't remember stabbing jerry , there could be other things you do n't remember . nikolas : what are you getting at , carly ? carly : you attacked jerry and logan hayes at the metro court . what if you 've been violent on other occasions but you just do n't remember and there were no witnesses ? nikolas : you need to leave now . carly : what were you doing september 7 , when leticia died ?

[ alexis sighs ] [ scene_break ] olivia : like you said , sonny is and has always been a gangster , so i 'm guessing that any plea for him to avoid retaliating against whoever shot my cousin -- it probably fell on deaf ears . kate : okay , perhaps this is a conversation that carly and i should have alone . carly : olivia is family . she should hear this . it 's no secret that sonny 's out to avenge whoever did this to you . and your cousin 's right . everything i said to him did not matter . kate : because he 's convinced that the only way to protect me is to go after the man who shot me . he is trying to stop the violence . carly : with more violence . olivia : stop deluding yourself , connie . this is -- this is not about protecting you or anybody else . this is like sonny when he was a kid . he 's crazy mad , and he can justify it any way he wants , but this is about revenge . he 's going to hit , and he 's going to keep hitting until the other guy 's got to beg for mercy . carly : sounds like your cousin understands sonny better than you do . [ scene_break ] sonny : i have no intention of dying . what i want to do is keep kate and the rest of my family safe . jason : but by going after karpov , you 're going to do the exact opposite . sonny : i just need your help . that 's what i 'm asking . i ca n't sit by and do nothing . jason : you do n't have the resources to go to war , and even if you did , you 're only going to put yourself and everybody you care about in more danger . i 'm still not convinced it 's karpov . sonny : oh , i 'm clear on that -- very clear . jason : okay , good . sonny : you would n't be convinced if you saw karpov pulling the trigger on dvd . you 're just willing to just sit around , do nothing . who knows , karpov or somebody else might slit the throat of somebody you love . jason : i understand -- i understand you do n't like how i 'm running the business , okay ? but every shipment has landed successfully . the foreign partners are happy . they 're making money . i have kept the competition in line , and most of all , i have kept the peace , sonny . sonny : you are either lying or delusional .

[ scene_break ] claudia : ignore that uptight , old , badly dressed witch . diane : who are you calling badly dressed ? and i 'm not uptight . claudia : you need someone like max here to rock your world , to take you places you 've only ever dreamed of . diane : sex for mr. giambetti is going to be nothing but a distant memory if he continues to consort with the likes of you . claudia : oh , but it 's so good . neither one of us can give it up , can we ? you really should tell her , big max . max : um -- diane : you do realize , of course , that this woman is the daughter of your most dangerous enemy , and she 's known for her promiscuity . maximus : best way i know for a girl to get a guy to talk about things he does n't want to talk about -- unless he 's packing , of course . max : you think i 'm so easily led , i have no self - control ? diane : i think it is going to be bad for you on every conceivable level if you are with this woman . you 're going to wind up hurt in ways you never even dreamed of . maximus : i kind of agree with your mouthpiece on this one . not only does she have a fine ass -- claudia : oh ! maximus : she packs a hell of a wallop . claudia : do n't keep me waiting too long , big max , huh ? you know i ca n't stay away . diane : if you have no further need for my services , i shall say good night . max : wait , wait , wait -- no , no , no , i 'm not through with you yet . [ scene_break ] kate : sonny would do anything to protect the people he cares about . you know that . that is exactly why i asked you to try to get through to him . carly : if sonny wants to keep the people he cares about safe , then he should n't retaliate , and for once in his life , he needs to let the police handle this . olivia : you know the police , connie , the guys in blue shirts with the badges . they solve the crimes so that people ca n't go running through the streets , blasting everyone they do n't agree with . carly : you know what ? i know what 's driving sonny , and i really wish i could have gotten through to him , but i could n't . kate : fine -- then i will . and i do n't want either of you here when i talk to him . carly : wow , i guess we 're getting the boot . you know what , olivia ? we should go have a cocktail . kate : oh , that 's perfect . you 'll have so much to talk about -- you have so much in common . [ scene_break ] sonny : you think because nobody 's made a move against you yet that you 've kept the peace ? what 's happened is it 's made you look weak . your enemies are lining up . jason : oh , they 've been testing me from day one , enemies and friends , and each time a message is sent . nothing flashy , sonny , nothing you 're going to read about in the news , no big public show of force . i do what needs to be done to keep everybody in line . sonny : who do you think you 're talking to ? you used to work for me . you 've got to put the fear of god in these people . because that 's the only thing they listen to . but right now , you 've made it clear -- you do n't want to fight for your territory , so the zaccharas , karpov , somebody else is going to make a move against you , and they 're going to take you down . jason : yeah , let them try . sonny : we can do this together . admit it -- you 're out of your league . jason : i will fight for my territory . but i can not start a war because you asked me to . sonny : so you 're going to throw away everything that i built . you 're going to put my men at risk . jason : i 'm not putting your men at risk . i 'm protecting your men . and i will protect them from you if i have to . so why do n't you do yourself a favor and give up this idea of revenge ? sonny : you know , i 've got to -- i 'm going to do what i 've got to do . jason : sonny -- sonny : no , look , you cut ties with me -- somebody who 's been there for you , forever . but you know what ? you 're on your own . and when everything comes crashing down on you , the only one you have to blame is yourself .

[ monica chuckles ] monica : from your insistence in staying in an unhealthy relationship with luke . so you need to deal with the consequences , tracy . otherwise , we are just enabling you . tracy : only you could come back from rehab with more ways to irritate me . monica : well , the program has worked for me . it 's taught me healthy ways to cope with you . tracy : if alan were alive and cheating on you , you would take him back , so do n't preach to me about unhealthy relationships . and by the way , daddy would n't be helping me or luke , you 'd be helping lulu .

[ scene_break ] max : well , dad , i 'm not looking for a wife at the moment , so there 's no point speculating what type i 'd choose . maximus : a man needs somebody to take care of him . milo : all due respect , you 've been through seven marriages . maximus : that 's why i know so much about women , milo . milo : mario ! diane : milo - mario makes a very salient point . why advocate an institution that has clearly done you no good ? maximus : it 's true that my marriages have never lasted . but each one of them has given me moments of great joy . all of which i wish to my sons . you 're young . but , max , hey , you got a lot of weight on your shoulder . so find somebody to come home to , somebody you can trust and believe in . diane : you might want to get to work on that , mr. giambetti . maximus : a good looking girl but a little mouthy . max : she 's perfect . let 's go , dad . let 's get you to the airport . maximus : i can get there on my own . and i got to make a stop on the way . come here .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you should n't -- you should n't have to live in fear , and there 's a simple solution to that . you stay away from the people who are getting shot at , and that includes me . kate : but there 's a problem with that . i love you . sonny : i love you , too . but i -- but that 's why i have to be honest with you . i ca n't make promises about the future . i ca n't guarantee that you are going to be safe . kate : i do n't want guarantees . what i want is for you to stay out of organized crime , because if you do that -- if you do that i can ride all of this out with you , whatever comes . sonny : i tried . it did n't work . kate : it 's been three months . sonny : well , three months . kate : what ? we knew that it would take time , right ? we knew it would be difficult to leave the mob . it would take time for your enemies to accept that it was n't a ploy . sonny : you almost died . did we just forget that ? kate : do not use me as an -- sonny : well , i 'm just saying . kate : no . look at me . now , right now , i am willing to accept the risks if i know that you 're sincere . if i know that you really do love me like you say you do , then do n't retaliate . [ sobbing ] please do not sink back into that life , because i will not give up on us . i will not give up on you . sonny : i 've already made a move , and i 'm going to make other moves . that 's just the way it has to be . that 's it . kate : is that your choice ? is that your choice ? sonny : it 's who i am . that 's how i do things . i love you , deeply . but i got to do what i think is right for you -- even if i lose you because of it . [ scene_break ] edward : of course , i have a soft spot for that sweet , little lulu . it broke my heart to see her losing her marbles on that witness stand . tracy : so clear the way for luke to come home and help her . edward : as monica so astutely put it -- the reason is that you want to have your husband back home so you can control him . monica : well , that 's assuming that tracy can really track him down this time . edward : and you are using sweet , little lulu to guilt luke spencer into abandoning his latest road trip . monica : yes , as long as lulu 's in recovery , luke will be chained to your side . tracy : i make no apologies for wanting to keep my husband close . and by the way , the two of you have no room to criticize . you are both well - versed in the art of lies and manipulation to keep a marriage together . [ phone rings ] tracy : this is tracy . ha - ha . i 'm on my way . all right , so i am going to get my husband luke now . i want you to get those charges dropped before i get home , or i will tell the members of your club that you have resorted to internet dating . edward : oh , that 's an outrageous lie . tracy : really ? let 's see , sell high and split ? do you know that i can send your profile page to everybody in your club with the click of a mouse ? and i know that they are so going to enjoy that pretty little picture of you in the speedo . edward : all right . all right , i will have the charges dropped so you can get your husband back here , and he can break your heart again just like you deserve . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] jerry : hello . alexis : what are you doing back here ? jerry : i came to get you . look at you . you 're sitting here alone , eating yourself up with work . alexis : welcome to my life . jerry : well , there 's nothing to do tonight but let me take you home . alexis : no , sorry , i 'm busy . i 've got to figure out how to proceed with an investigation that may implicate my daughter . so multiple choice , do i recuse myself , or do i protect her ? jerry : well , here 's an idea . do n't do anything tonight . why do n't you give your thoughts a little rest , give yourself a little distance , and let me take care of you . okay ? [ scene_break ] [ italian music plays ] sonny : mr. giambetti . maximus : your guard let me in . sonny : good . what can i do for you ? maximus : pour me a drink . we need to talk . [ scene_break ] olivia : how is sonny with him ? carly : oh , he 's great . he 's patient , and he 's caring . i mean , he loves those boys . well , i was going to say he loves those boys more than his own life , but that 's not true . michael was shot because of the choices sonny 's made -- he 's continuing to make . taking those boys away from him was the hardest thing i ever had to do . olivia : nothing is more important than protecting your kids . but i bet sonny misses them like crazy . carly : he does , yeah . and i wish it did n't have to be this way . i wish that i could tear up that custody agreement and take sonny over to see morgan tonight , but i ca n't . and the incredible irony is that everything sonny 's done -- everything he 's built -- was to give his kids a different life , a better life . but his anger and his pride is taking him further and further away from them . olivia : it 's funny . in sonny 's mind , the perfect woman is like an angel he can put up on a pedestal . you know , like his mother . she was -- she was a lovely woman . she was weak . but when it came down to the actual business of being a father , sonny chose you -- a strong woman who he knew would protect his son and even keep him away from his father if it came to that . it 's like sonny knew that the greatest gift he could give his child was a mother who would keep him safe no matter what . carly : wow . it 's pretty great that you understand that . sonny does n't . he 's never going to forgive me . [ scene_break ] maximus : thank you . you seem like an intelligent man , mr. corinthos -- too intelligent to make a stupid move like going after a rival without the proper backup to get the job done . sonny : do you know what it feels like to see someone you love get shot right in front of you ? maximus : a terrible thing -- one so terrible that can make any man forget the basic rules . do n't get emotional over business , and do n't mix business with the personal . so i ask you with caution to wait and to watch . and make them come to you . sonny : well , that 's nice advice . why are you offering it ? maximus : because i do n't want to see my son get his ass shot off working for you . max must be a very valuable soldier and a friend for you to keep up this charade about him being the boss . sonny : when did you figure it out ? maximus : five minutes after i walked through the door . look , my plane leaves soon for palermo , and if i do n't get on it , the feds are going to have a field day . so i say to you , good luck . but there 's one favor i need to ask from you . sonny : name it . maximus : take care of my sons . and do n't tell max that i knew the stint was all made up . sonny : okay , i got it . [ scene_break ] max : i thought diane might be here . jason : why ? max : she got irritated with my dad and walked off . now she 's not answering her phone . i was hoping she 's here with you in some kind of a meeting , but it turns out she 's just mad at me . you know , i can see diane 's point . i know my dad 's ideas about women are old - fashioned . and she did have to stand there and watch claudia zacchara stick her tongue down my throat . jason : you kissed claudia zacchara ? max : no , no , no , no . her lips were doing all the work . i was an innocent victim . diane knows that . but the good news is , my dad 's going back to palermo tonight , so things can finally get back to normal . jason : oh , max , i am so glad to hear that . i ca n't even tell you how happy that makes me . was there something else ? max : i just wanted to say thanks for playing along . and to let you know that , in the future , if you ever decide that you want to retire or whatever -- due to your current situation -- i 'm ready to step up . i think i got a talent for being a real boss . [ scene_break ] lucky : hey , i got a few questions for you . sam : uh , yeah , you do n't have to worry about us being seen . karpov left with his crew to go handle the shipment that i landed . lucky : were you able to get a look at any of the cargo ? sam : no , but i did see karpov give jerry a pad with names , listing schedules , shipments , information on all the cargo that 's in it . and if i just could have gotten my hands on it -- lucky : all right , you 've taken this far enough . sam : excuse me ; i have come too close to stop now . [ scene_break ] alexis : i ca n't tonight . jerry : oh , come on . let me take care of you . alexis : you ca n't take care of me , because i do n't trust you . jerry : well , you can trust me tomorrow . alexis : no , tomorrow i have to get a warrant and search my daughter 's apartment . tomorrow , i have to go with the cops and treat my daughter like a criminal . i would love to do anything but think about this tonight . jerry : well , then , do n't , darling . alexis : i 'm going to do it right now . i 'm going to call this in before i lose my nerve . [ phone rings ] jerry : hello ? sam : hi , i hope i caught you at a good time . jerry : why , yes , it 's always a good time for you , darling . alexis : this is district attorney alexis davis . i need to issue a warrant . sam : i was wondering if maybe you would be interested in dinner tomorrow night . alexis : the name ? sam mccall . jerry : i ca n't wait . sam : that 's great . i 'll see you then . okay , i mean , this is it . by tomorrow night , this should all be over .

sam : hi . jason : hi . sam : it -- it seems weird saying hi considering we just woke up in bed together just a few hours ... mmm . wow . okay , i really did like the way my morning started , by the way . spinelli : maximista will love this new breakfast spot i found her . they make cappuccinos with hearts in the foam . maxie : you are so romantic . jason : spinelli , i need you right now . maxie : do you have to be so selfish ? jason : it 's very important , maxie . maxie : okay , well , unlike you and sam , spinelli and i are open about our feelings for each other . you know , you and sam ca n't even look at each other when anyone else is in the room , and i do n't really understand why you guys ca n't just be honest about your relationship . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i did n't -- i did n't know you were back . elizabeth : i got home last night . it 's good to be home . nikolas : so how was it ? elizabeth : i managed to get a lot of thinking done . nikolas : yeah . well , i certainly want to hear all about it , but i 'm actually here to admit a patient . elizabeth : is spencer okay ? nikolas : yeah , he 's -- he 's fine . it 's actually my grandmother . [ scene_break ] dominic : is this where you accept my formal resignation ? ronnie : [ sighs ] just the opposite . you 're back on the corinthos case . looks like you have friends i did n't know about in really high places . dominic : ha ha ! [ scene_break ] jax : the officer in question is in the perfect position to bring down a major crime figure . it 's a win for everyone involved . thank you , sir . [ sonny laughs ] carly : good morning , honey . look who came to visit ? jax : that 's funny . i was just talking about you . [ scene_break ] ethan : okay , how long do we wait for this latest threat to reveal itself ? luke : well , first of all , we do n't wait . we form a defensive strategy as soon as we get enough intel to support it , and then we wait . and we wait as long as it takes for him to show his s hand . ethan : well , showing up with lulu already forced his hand . i mean , if we had n't , you 'd still be held prisoner there . luke : yeah , or already executed . ethan : you know , while you were gone , our dna test came in the mail . and you really are my father . luke : you still had doubts ? ethan : well , mostly about your disappearing act , you know ? i mean , everyone said it was just luke being luke . but , i do n't know , i never understood why you 'd leave . luke : i told you i wo n't bail on you , ethan . not without a heads up first . ethan : okay , so in the future , then , if you promise to stick around , and you do disappear , i can go ahead and assume foul play ? luke : the foulest . alexis : welcome back , luke . now , that was an intriguing phone call . luke : hey , natasha . [ alexis gasps ] luke : guess who 's back in town . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you know , a convalescent home may be better suited for your grandmother . the stunt she pulled at the reopening of the hospital may impair the ability of the staff to properly care for her . nikolas : i know . i do n't want her here either , but she 's been poisoned , and she needs care while we identify which drug has been used . for reasons i ca n't explain right now , i need my grandmother in good health . helena : well , i love you , too , my darling . and soon you 'll realize just how much . lucky : what the hell is she doing here ? helena : well , lucky ! why , it 's been too long . i 've missed you . [ scene_break ] jason : okay , i need you to get to work now , and i need you to leave him alone while he does that work . spinelli : jackal is locked and loaded . maxie : spinelli , what about our foam hearts ? spinelli : well , just as i vowed not to interfere with maximista 's career , i -- i have my own work to do . maxie : this is n't about work . jason is just trying to punish me because i pointed out that he and sam are n't fooling anyone . sam : actually , it is about work . maxie : oh , no . not you , too . i mean , if you guys are gon na be together , i think you should just admit it . sam : [ scoffs ] please . not everyone has to flaunt their relationship like you two . maxie : spinelli , i hope that you never feel like you ca n't show me how you 're feeling about me in front of other people . spinelli : never . maxie : good . [ scene_break ] ronnie : looks like you called in one hell of a favor . dominic : oh , i 'm sorry . i think you have me confused with somebody connected . i was s just looking at the train schedule back to bensonhurst when you called . ronnie : look , okay , i heard from gorski early this morning . he got a call from the commissioner , who said that he got a call from a certain senator who made it really clear -- dominic : i 'm trying not to be impressed with myself here , but i do n't know anyone that could call in that kind of favor . ronnie : the senator 's office made it clear that you need to continue to go after sonny . dominic : as far as i know , there 's only , what , 5 or 6 people that know what i 've been up to . ronnie : well , looks like you 've built up quite a fan club . dominic : either that , or somebody with strings to pull hates sonny , too . [ scene_break ] jax : i guess somebody told you about our close call last night . carly : that would be coleman . jax : oh . carly : he was trying to cover his butt . sonny : he went on and on about how dr. lee swore that the contraband french fries did not cause the labor . carly : he was my secret supplier . but she did say the french fries did not hurt the baby . sonny : and i just came by to make sure that her and the baby are okay . carly : we 're fine . we are . and every bit of my energy is going to go into carrying this baby to term . and you guys can help me with that . [ scene_break ] alexis : thank you . you were held captive on cassadine island since mid - june ? luke : did n't you miss me ? alexis : i always miss you , luke . i just thought you were out doing whatever it is that you do for months . then how 'd you get out ? luke : lulu and the dodger , with an assist from your nephew . ethan : yeah , we got a tip that luke might be in trouble . luke : from someone inside the cassadine compound . alexis : so who would be willing to risk helena 's wrath ? luke : a nurse by the name of misha . alexis : misha ? luke : so you 've not heard of her . okay . well , here 's what happened . helena had me whacked on the head here . she drugged me , hauled me off to greece . i wake up in a cell , and i 'm just stuck there . she 'd take me out t every once in a while , you know , clean me up , play a few games with me , and throw me back in there with the rats . then one day i noticed that the guards had changed . you know , her usual hunky buffy boys she has around her , they all changed -- a much more serious , lethal group . and then just the other day , somebody left the cell door open . when i found her , she was in a room in bed , sick , barely hanging on . she warned me that , uh , her illness and my incarceration were all planned by one of your siblings . you ever hear of a forgotten cassadine , son of mikkos , with a penchant for revenge ? alexis : oh , my god . valentin ? luke : that 's the one . can you shed some light on this newest enemy of ours ? alexis : oh , i never met him . i 've heard a lot about him , though . we all have . he did some really bad things to my dad , or he tried to anyway . ethan : what kind of things ? alexis : bad things . although my dad was never quite sure it was valentin 'cause you could never actually see him doing it . he was kind of like a ghost . luke : there are no ghosts . alexis : exactly . i think he 's a front for helena . [ scene_break ] lucky : lulu called me last night . she said that my dad was home . she said that he had been held captive on your family island in greece . so you tell me , what universe did you think it was a good idea to bring your grandmother here ? helena : well , lucky ! all that time we spent together , i 'd hoped you 'd grown as fond of me as i am of you . nikolas : what room do you have her in ? elizabeth : 212 . and as far as i 'm concerned , she ca n't get there soon enough . nikolas : take her to her room . helena : oh , but i 'm enjoying this reunion . nikolas : now ! now , please . look , i 'm -- look , i 'm sorry , all right ? someone tried to poison her . lucky : yeah , well , i 'm sorry they screwed it up . nikolas : hold on -- by the same person who held luke captive . elizabeth : who ? nikolas : yet another one of my grandfather 's bastards , my uncle valentin , who everyone thought was dead , and according to helena is determined to take out any spencer and cassadine he can find . that 's why i need her well right now , because she 's the only one who knows my uncle well enough to keep him at bay . lucky : okay , well , helena is a disaster waiting to happen , and you know that . nikolas , you better get her out of here , or i 'll do it for you . nikolas : yeah , okay . i 'm sorry you had to come back to that . elizabeth : it is not okay to do this to him . he can not be around helena . nikolas : i know . elizabeth : after what she did to him ? nikolas : well , she 's in no condition to hurt anyone right now , and honestly , i 've never seen her this afraid , so ... anyway , uh , did you come to any conclusions while you were away ? elizabeth : well , i 'm -- i 'm gon na find a private room for you to fill out this paperwork . come with me . you got my letter , right ? nikolas : yeah . so you left town to get away from me ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal has conducted an exhaustive search of financial institutions along the devil doctor 's northerly route . no safe deposit boxes were issued to ian devlin or any of his known aliases . jason : okay , what about the banks here in port charles ? spinelli : that was my first order of business . it appears we 've reached a dead end . jason : but devlin had a micro - recorder when he died . he had an accessory to record phone conversations . he had to store those recordings somewhere , right ? spinelli : what about the dive motel he stayed in ? jason : that -- wait a minute , i was there once when it looked like devlin shot michael . sam : you guys , i 'm sure at place has been swept through a million times already . people have stayed there . what do you -- jason : i know , but i think it 's worth a shot . maybe he hid them somewhere that nobody else could find them . [ sam sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : kelly was able to stop the labor with medication , but she made it clear that this baby could be born at any time . i need to have peace of mind , and it would help if you guys could bury the hatchet ... somewhere besides in each other 's backs . sonny : well , we 've done a pretty good job of staying out of each other 's way , right , jax ? jax : well , we both want what 's best for you and the baby , and the boys . sonny : i 'll do whatever you need to make sure you and the baby girl are all good . carly : see ? my stress levels are just going down and down . sonny : i need something from you now that would help me out a lot . stop sneaking french fries .

[ scene_break ] ronnie : whoever was powerful enough to call in those favors from the senator cares more about busting sonny than about your life . dominic : corinthos leaves a trail of corpses behind him . he may not pull the trigger , but he 's the one calling the shots . ronnie : which is why you need to be off this case . you 're too compromised now that sonny 's wife knows your identity . ask for a transfer . let someone else bring the hammer down on sonny . hell , i 'll do it . dominic : what , you think i 'm gon na step aside and let you take all the credit ? you can forget that . claudia knows my real name . that 's it . she does n't know that i 'm a cop . ronnie : yeah , there 's one more complication . you remember joseph limbowski ? dominic : joey limbo , yeah . he went into pentonville before i even went with the zaccharas . ronnie : well , he caught an early parole . he 's getting out today . olivia : well , is n't this special , the two of you in here nice like the freakin ' social hall at st. theresa 's . you 're supposed to be on your way back to brooklyn , and you 're supposed to be making sure he gets there . dominic : change of plans , ma . i 'm back on the corinthos case . somebody pretty powerful wants me to finish what i started and put sonny in prison where he belongs . [ scene_break ] helena : well , lucky , you keep coming back to me like a sweet little homing pigeon . lucky : and you keep showing up like a bad penny . helena : wow , so handsome . i have truly missed you . lucky : i ca n't say the same . i do n't buy this whole phony poisoning as much as i do n't buy some deranged cassadine just showing up . helena : then you are making a serious and potentially fatal error . lucky : and this is classic helena , inventing some threat to disrupt our lives . i 'm not gon na let you tear our lives apart again . helena : lucky , i am not the enemy this time . rebecca : i was about to go on my break when i got ... paged here . lucky : look who showed up . helena : my , my , my . look at you ! [ chuckles ] what an improvement over our last encounter . no , you are the very image of dear departed emily , although i 'm afraid it 's too little too late . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i left to give myself the time and distance i needed to think clearly , to see if i could live my life under different circumstances . nikolas : oh . you -- you mean remarrying lucky ? elizabeth : i mean remarrying lucky despite my guilt over sleeping with you . nikolas : [ scoffs ] well , i 'm just as guilty as you on that front . elizabeth : and you need to protect your relationship with lucky . so do i . nikolas : okay . so what , we just keep pretending that we never happened ? i mean ... elizabeth : well , i can keep the secret . i mean , i can keep the secret if it means a life with lucky and the boys 'cause i can make them happy . nikolas : yeah . yeah , and i want that happiness for them , too , so ... so i respect your decision , and i guess i 'll do my part to try and make it work with rebecca . [ scene_break ] jason : i know this is a long shot , but we got nothing else to go on . sam : i think you 're right . it 's worth looking . jason : right . i appreciate you doing this with me . sam : i can remember back when a.j . took michael and staged his death , and everybody thought he was gone , and you did n't . and i 'm just saying that i backed you then , and i 'm certainly going to back you now . jason : thank you . sam : ready ? jason : yeah . sam : hold on . [ scene_break ] olivia : could you explain to me , please , ron , how you could let this happen ? dominic : it was n't his call . olivia : i 'm not talking to you ! this is your operation . how in the hell could you let him stay undercover after he 's been so compromised ? ronnie : look , i 'm sorry , olivia , but you 're gon na have to take it up with the commissioner or whoever it was at the senator 's office who made the call because it 's way over my head . i 'm gon na get out of here before my cover 's blown . olivia : they ca n't make you do this . they can not make you risk your life on this if you just say no . dominic : hey , you know what ? i did n't ask to be put back on this case , but i 'm damn grateful to whoever it was that got it . olivia : how many people know about this assignment ? dominic : well , whoever it was is pretty powerful and high up , and they know i 'm the best chance to bring sonny down and put him in prison where he belongs . olivia : are you so sure that there are n't other people that deserve to be there more , people who are out there doing way worse than sonny ? dominic : look , i know sonny 's an old friend , and i know he 's got kids , and i know it 's gon na be tough on them growing up without a father , but ... he knew all that stuff when he still chose to do what he did . i got ta go back to work . [ scene_break ] jason : okay , which one ? sam : okay , as a p.i . , i have learned that it 's probably cheaper to pay for the room than it is bail . jason : [ sighs ] here . sam : oh . okay . woman : listen up , sugar . whatever she 'll do for you , i 'll do it better . [ scene_break ] ethan : you know , if helena 's using valentin as a front , that means she poisoned herself . i mean , that does n't track . luke : no , it seems unlikely , but it 's not impossible . helena is a very crafty , twisted adversary , my boy . it 's completely within the scope of possibility that she could come up with some monster to do her dirty work . and then poison herself to make the story stick . rebecca : guess who just checked into general hospital ? ethan : helena cassadine . yeah . nikolas mentioned he might drag her back . luke : is she dead yet ? rebecca : heh , no . but obviously do n't need my warning . ethan : why do n't you warn nikolas that his grandmother is up to s something ? or better yet , why do n't you just avoid nikolas altogether , huh ? rebecca : this was a bad idea . ethan : he 's using you . okay , he just wants to hurt you just to watch you suffer . rebecca : ethan , i do n't need this . ethan : nikolas told me you would n't believe me . guess he was right . rebecca : my life , with or without nikolas , is none of your business . ethan : you know , it used to be . rebecca : yeah , a lot of things used to be . [ sighs ] ethan : [ sighs ] what ? luke : you 're wearing your heart on your sleeve , romeo . ethan : you know , a lot has happened in these past few months . you remember , right before you disappeared , i told you i might stick around for other reasons . well , rebecca was that reason . okay , we met way before we landed in port charles , and i convinced her to run a con with me that bilked nikolas and the quartermaines out of millions . luke : the quartermaines ? son of a bitch ! you were trying to move in on my territory ! you are not to be trusted . ethan : like father , like son . but nikolas found out . he got his princely feelings hurt , and now he 's lying to rebecca , trying to convince her that he cares about her , but he 's bent on breaking her . luke : listen to me , kid . it 's never a good idea to go up against the cassadines . but over a woman ? ethan : [ sighs ] luke : you better make damn sure that rebecca is worth it ; that she really means that much to you . because if you plan to take her away from nikolas , it 's quite possible he could ... revert to genetic predisposition and go all cassadine on your ass . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : please explain to me how it helps me and lucky for you to be with rebecca . nikolas : i ca n't be in the same room with you without wanting you . so rebecca is the distraction i need right now , i guess . elizabeth : really , nikolas ? i mean ... really ? do you honestly have feelings for her after the way she betrayed you ? nikolas : i do n't -- i do n't hate her anymore . i mean , i 've made such a point of pursuing her , i might as well continue the relationship . i do n't know ! elizabeth : wow . i mean , i 'm not friends with her by any means , but she is emily 's sister . do n't you think it 's a little wrong to be using her like that ? nikolas : she never has to know how i feel about you . and that leaves you free to be with lucky , right ? [ scene_break ] sonny : hey . claudia : where were you this morning ? sonny : i was at the hospital . carly went into early labor last night . claudia : i know . john told me . he was with her and he came here after , but he did n't know if the baby was going to be okay . sonny : they were able to stop the labor . she 's going to be able to carry her baby to term . claudia : that 's good . must have been awful for her . it 's the worst thing in the world to worry about -- sonny : i 'm sorry . you know what , that was n't very sensitive of me . claudia : no , it 's okay . sonny : no , it 's -- claudia : sonny , you know what , there 's going to be lots of other women who get pregnant around me for a lot of years . and i 'm really okay with it . i mean , i can be happy for her that she has a healthy child . sonny : that 's very generous . claudia : i 'm still waiting to find out if i 'm pregnant . sonny : in the meantime , listen , we need to stabilize the business situation . no sudden moves , no unnecessary risks . claudia : until after carly 's baby 's born , i know . i get it . [ scene_break ] anthony : so , you 're getting out today . joey : i 'm truly in your debt for arranging my early parole . anthony : someday you 'll return the favor . joey : anything . any time . you 've been more than generous . anthony : the only thing i ask in return is that you wipe out sonny corinthos and his organization . joey : it 's my first priority . anthony : joey , you ca n't be traced back to me . that 's critical . when he draws his last breath , sonny corinthos and everyone around him have to believe you acted on your own . joey : do n't worry . i 'm a man who always pays his debts . sonny will never know what hit him .

[ chuckles ] jason : did you get the room key ? sam : yep . let 's go . [ scene_break ] nikolas : right , 200,000 euros , and make sure you close at that price . thank you . rebecca : hi . nikolas : hi . rebecca : were you looking for me ? nikolas : yeah , yeah , there 's something you should know . rebecca : oh , if it 's about helena , i already do . lucky asked me to help talk you into sending her someplace else . nikolas : right , and if it were n't that complicated , i certainly would . rebecca : look , not that i want anything to do with her , but i know that you would n't have brought her here without good reason . and i trust you to do what 's right . nikolas : well , you may regret that trust . you may regret not running out the door as fast as you can , because where helena goes , pain always follows . rebecca : if something bad is coming , then i 'm not going to let you face it alone . i 'm prepared to stand by you . that 's what you do when you care about someone . nikolas : come on . [ scene_break ] alexis : oh , my god , you look awful . that makes me really happy . helena : ah , natasha . well , aging has n't made you sweeter . alexis : i hear you 're convincing everyone that the mythic valentin is poisoning you . helena : you 're not the only bastard cassadine who 's an ongoing inconvenience . alexis : well , the more the merrier . however , i 'm not convinced your threat is real . helena : oh , you 've always been overly suspicious and it 's not attractive . no , ignore your half - brother at your own risk . alexis : why would he come after me , anyway ? all i do is have dinner with nikolas once a week or every two weeks . i do n't have anything to do with the cassadines anymore . helena : you were raised in your father 's house , which is more than valentin was given . and he wants revenge . do n't look at me like that . he is truly insane . he is going to destroy any spencer or cassadine that he can get his hands on . i should have killed him when i had the chance . alexis : wow , you old witch . you really are scared . helena : well , as you should be , too . you have a great deal to lose , natasha . a few pounds would n't hurt . [ scene_break ] anthony : i appreciate your loyalty , joey . but ... there 's one more condition . no harm can come to my son . he works for sonny now . when the hostilities begin , he 's going to be right in the thick of it . if i should hear that so much as a hair on my son 's head has been harmed , hmm , there 'd be hell to pay . joey : your son will be safe . you have my word . and your daughter . can i assume that claudia should be protected as well ? anthony : [ chuckles ] take her out along with her husband . and while you 're at it , get rid of that traitor dominic pirelli . [ scene_break ] olivia : we need to talk . jax : all right . well , good news first . carly made it through the night without going back into labor . so she was released from the hospital a half hour ago . olivia : hmm . you must be so relieved . jax : yeah , i 'm hoping that she 'll listen to the doctors this time and take it easy , but in case she does n't , i 'd appreciate it if you keep an eye on her , let me know if she pushes herself too hard . olivia : himm . [ chuckles ] must be nice to have someone you can count on to take care of the people that you love . i thought we were friends , jax . i thought i could trust you . but now dante is back on the case , risking his life every minute of every day . jax : being an undercover cop is a dangerous job . olivia : you did this ! you called in favors , and you got dante put back on the case because you do n't give a damn about anything at all except getting sonny out of our lives and behind bars . dante 's just a means to an end to you . jax : no , that is not true . olivia : which part ? you talk all you want about your noble motives , jax . this is between you and sonny . carly : what about jax and sonny ? [ scene_break ] claudia : i understand we need to keep a low profile , especially until after carly delivers the baby . sonny : i want to make it easier for her . maybe it will make up for what i brought down on her when michael got shot . she should n't have to worry about the boys when she got a baby girl coming , and i 'm doing everything i can right now to keep my kids safe . claudia : i know . and that 's why i respect your choice not to have any more kids . even though it 's clear that you 're a wonderful father . sonny : thank you . but , you know , it was never my intention when we got married to start a family . claudia : yeah , and if you say that you do n't want any more kids , than ... i 'm not going to try to change your mind . certainly . i mean , unless , of course , i 'm already pregnant . and if that 's the case , then ... i do n't know , i mean , i 'm not going to pretend like i do n't hope and pray every day that i 'm carrying your baby . and that if i am , that we could work it out . but if i 'm not , then i 'm just going to focus on being the very best stepmother that i can be to the kids that you already have , and that 's a lot . sonny : you can be generous when you want to be . claudia : i 'm full of surprises . dominic : oh . sorry to interrupt , but i just found out something that 's likely to change all your plans . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i normally avoid my grandmother at all costs , but unfortunately , she 's the only one who can offer insight into this previously unknown relative of mine who 's determined to blow up my life . believe me , if there 's another option , i 'd take it . rebecca : do n't you think you 're exaggerating this whole `` helena is a dire threat `` kind of thing ? nikolas : no , i do n't think i am . she 'd just as soon cut my head off as hug me . rebecca : all right , if you say so . nikolas : that gullibility could get you killed . rebecca : oh , come on , nikolas . what could helena possibly do to any one of us ? i mean , she can barely lift her hand . nikolas : do n't underestimate her . the fact that she 's so terrified over this valentin guy only makes the threat that much more serious . rebecca : all right . look , i 'm new to your family drama and maybe i 'm downplaying the danger . but by the same token , you could be blowing everything out of proportion . not deliberately . you 're obviously hard - wired to this kind of stuff . but i suspect that the truth lies somewhere in the middle . either way , nikolas , i want you to know that you can count on me , okay ? whatever , however you need me , i 'm not afraid . nikolas : and that 's what i 'm telling you . you should be afraid . you should run the hell away from me as far and as fast as you can . [ scene_break ] helena : oh . you silly girl , did n't you have the intestinal fortitude to ask them to assign someone else to take care of me ? elizabeth : i 'm just here to update your chart . be grateful i do n't kill you . helena : oh , no , not you . you are a dedicated professional . elizabeth : do n't press your luck . you can always be poisoned again . helena : oh , my , how fierce . that 's a refreshing change from those endless banal declarations of eternal love for lucky . how hollow they ring now . does lucky have the slightest inkling that you and nikolas are becoming lovers ?

'cause i know you 're kind of nervous , and this guy has n't done anything to you , right ? this joey guy ? dominic : look , my past screw - up is behind me . i 'll do what needs to be done . sonny : good . dominic : you ordering me to kill joey limbo ? [ scene_break ] jax : what are you doing here ? after the scare we had last night , you should be home resting . olivia : yeah , if you went into premature labor , you should n't be out running around . carly : i 'm not running around . dr. lee called me in for more tests . i thought you 'd want to go , so i stopped by to pick you up . jax : yeah . carly : guess i walked in on something about you and sonny . somehow involves olivia . what 's going on ? jax : well ... all right . i have a confession to make .

[ scene_break ] carly : you need to pick up the phone , call claire , pull out all the stops . charm her . get her back to thinking you 're the best thing since brownies . please . sonny : let me guess . this overreaction is about claire turning michael in . she was bluffing . i already handled it . carly : i 'm not comforted . what the hell , sonny ? what made you think it was a good idea to sweep claire off her feet and then promptly dump her ? she 's a federal prosecutor who now has an ax to grind , and that could come down on michael 's head . did you ever think about that ? sonny : first of all , you 're wrong . claire was not a conquest . believe it or not , i was starting to like her , and i thought that we could have something together . carly : right . cue brenda . sonny : yeah . well , that was the problem , because i did n't want to lie to claire and have feelings for somebody else when i was still -- carly : okay , whatever . this torch you 're carrying for brenda -- extinguish it , finally and forever . sonny : says who ? you ? carly : i really have to explain this to you ? our son trumps your sick relationship with brenda . okay ? put your focus back on claire . that 's how we keep michael out of pentonville .

[ knock on door ] sonny : yeah . michael : hey . sorry . is this a bad time ? shawn : on my way out . michael : hey . sonny : i have n't seen you in a couple days . michael : yeah , i 've been a little ... distracted . so , how -- how -- how are you feeling ? sonny : better . you know , i 'm back on my meds . i - i -- [ chuckles ] i had to do what your mama told -- told me to do , you know . michael : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm glad . sonny : that was a mistake , going off the medication . it always is . i 've made a lot of mistakes lately . michael : well , it 's -- you know , it 's been a -- it 's been a tough time . sonny : you know , i -- uh , i knew morgan was lying to you , and i - i kept the secret . you know , i - i was n't happy that you went after his girlfriend . but ... i chose not to tell you that you and kiki were not related , and for that ... i 'm sorry , and ... i hope you forgive me . and ... i 'm gon na , uh , regret that to -- to the day i die , you know ? michael : dad ... apology accepted . sonny : go ahead . scream at me if you want . [ chuckling ] you 're not -- you 're not gon na scream at me ? you 're not gon na tell me how , you know , i betrayed you and how i chose one brother 's happiness over the other ? you 're not gon na tell me that i 'm not your father ? michael : dad , you 'll always be my father , okay ? nothing -- nothing can change that . sonny : yeah . nothing can change that . alexis : what do you mean , ava has a relationship with derek ? carly : well , i mean , he says that she 's his art dealer . alexis : and you do n't believe him ? carly : well , i 've seen them being all chummy . but as far as i can see , it did n't look like romance or art . alexis : mm . so , why are you interested ? carly : because that woman has her claws in morgan . alexis : no . ava and morgan are -- carly : please do n't say it , because , i mean , just the thought of it -- it kills me , you know ? alexis : is n't she his mother - in - law ? carly : yes , and that makes it even more disgusting . ava is disgusting . and i was gon na throw her out on the street , but she 'd snuck out before i could do it . so , now i 'm trying to track her down . alexis : mm . you think derek knows where she is ? carly : well , i think he 's in touch with her , and i think he may be able to lead me to her . alexis : so , the dinner that you had with derek was n't romantic . carly : no ! well , i mean -- well , it did n't start off that way . it -- but it just kind of changed when franco showed up . franco : it 's an honest question . derek : [ panting ] franco : did i make carly jealous ? derek : [ sighs ] you want me to pass her a note in algebra and ask her ? franco : yeah , find out if she wrote my name on her jeans with a marker . derek : carly was n't jealous . in fact , if you had n't have been , uh , macking on your attorney to get her attention , you might 've noticed that , uh , i already had it . franco : her attention . derek : well , that 's one way to put it , i suppose . i mean , i was just sitting there , having a pleasant conversation . the next thing i knew , uh , carly was literally in my face . franco : aha . see ? so she did just kiss you to get back at me for kissing diane . derek : well , maybe she did . but , uh , what do i care ? carly is super attractive . and i look forward to getting to know her better ... and soon . sonny : how you doing with -- you know , after everything that i said . you know what i 'm talking about -- everything that went down . michael : yeah . yeah , um -- [ clears throat ] well , kiki and i are together now . sonny : you kids are happy ?

[ clears throat ] franco 's return is going to rock the collectors of this world . and did i mention the money you could make ? ava : what does franco have to say about this ? diane : franco has nothing to say about this . his assets are all frozen until his victims ' civil suit is settled . ava : so , what -- he 's a starving artist now ? diane : look , ava , you do n't even need to pretend to like franco . all you need to do is sell his work and divvy up the cash . ava : how long do i have to think about it ? diane : until i go to odile 's . morgan : wait , that 's , like -- that 's , like , right across the street . diane : it 's right across the street ! what do you think about that ? ! my gosh ! odile really loves franco 's work , and she needs the cash . ava : oh , you are good at this . diane : all i need is your signature on this contract , along with your partner 's . morgan : whoa . w - what partner ? franco : i will not let you talk about carly like that . derek : like what ? franco : you have no respect for her . you do n't know carly . you do n't care about her . derek : and you do ? franco : i 'm not gon na let you use her . derek : hey , you see yourself as , uh , carly 's protector . that 's a tad hypocritical , do n't you think -- i mean , given your criminal history and all ? or are you gon na try and sell her on the idea that she 's , uh , redeemed you somehow ? franco : we 're in the middle of a misunderstanding . derek : which brings up an interesting philosophical question . can something or someone as evil as you are experience love ? and if they , in fact , can experience love , are they still evil ? franco : a query completely exhausted during the third season of `` buffy the vampire slayer . `` i will leave you to ponder that . what is your price ? derek : price ? franco : yeah , i got a big show coming up . i 'm gon na make a lot of money . derek : are you , uh -- you trying to , uh , buy me off ? franco : what i 'm trying to do is speak your language . derek : okay . okay . well , then , uh , let me return the favor . i do n't need your money . carly does n't need your protection . now , if you 'll excuse me ... franco : so , what is it gon na take for me to get you to stop seeing carly ? derek : [ chuckles ] silas : ava slept with your husband , a kid that 's barely old enough to vote ? kiki : as awful as it all sounds , i should 've never married morgan to begin with , especially because i 'm in love with michael . sam : okay . silas : what ? sam : well , um , that 's good . at least you have michael . that 's great . kiki : yeah ! so , you do n't think that i 'm trampy for leaving my husband for his brother ? silas : no , you 're not t -- i mean , i 'm a little unclear about who 's with who right now , but , i mean , the -- the way i see it , it 's ava 's fault that you and michael thought you were related in the first place . that much i know , just like she kept it from us that you and i were father and daughter . sam : well , i mean , at least my mother had a good reason for not telling me who my father was . kiki : what reason was that ? sam : uh , because she did n't know who he was . but your mother -- she knew the whole time , your -- your entire life . kiki : yeah , she did . and now that i do know who my father is , i kind of have a question for you . how did you and my mom end up hooking up ? because you seem very different from her . i do n't see how that happened . silas : i - i - i really do n't know how to put that into words . i , um -- you know , from the moment i met her , i was drawn to her . kiki : and how long were you guys together ? uh , okay , i 'm sorry . you do n't want to be talking about this right now . that was really -- silas : no , it 's okay . you know what ? you -- you deserve to know , you know ? [ chuckles ] so , it was a long time ago , and i was , um -- i was in my last year of med school . and ava , she was opening this gallery , her first gallery . and i remember she did n't have enough money , so -- i remember she had to get money from her brother to bankroll her . kiki : uh , wait , wait , wait . i 'm sorry . her brother ? what brother ? derek : [ sighs ] you seem determined to make this a contest . franco : i am determined to get you away from her . derek : [ sighs ] okay , fine . um ... let 's make this easy . why do n't we , uh -- why do n't we fight each other ? [ sighs ] port charles . ava follows kiki . now , next thing i know , i 'm getting a report that someone 's trying to muscle into my territory , and those same goons that are running that gambling ring are back in town . michael : okay , i 'm sorry . i 'm not -- i 'm still not seeing the connection to ava . sonny : shawn put the squeeze on one of the -- one of the enforcers , had him cough up ... who his boss was . michael : okay , and what 's the name ? sonny : julian jerome . michael : okay , and you think that ava has some sort of a connection to this julian ? sonny : i wish ! but ... julian jerome 's been dead for over 20 years . uh , they were -- they were a - a mob family that used to be here , even before i got here . michael : what happened to them ? sonny : they 're dead . at least , that 's what people think . michael : what do you think ? sonny : i 'm thinking that a woman with the same last name as a dead mob boss attached her daughter to morgan . when that did n't work ... she got with him herself . michael : and you think that ava wants to stay close to the family , close to us ? sonny : ca n't be a coincidence . michael : well , you should know that , uh , kiki does n't want anything to do with her mother . sonny : okay . you need -- you need to stay away from this woman . michael : yeah , no problem . sonny : what we just talked about is between me and you . michael : i got it . sonny : all right . i -- you know what ? i feel terrible , because i been talking about business instead of how -- w - what 's going on ? michael : actually , that 's why i 'm here . um ... i need a job . franco : you want to fight ? derek : it 's just sparring -- a friendly little match . franco : but we 're not friendly . derek : okay , um ... why do n't you think of it as trying to get what you want ? franco : you away from carly ? derek : how about it ? are you , uh -- you do know how to box , do n't you ? alexis : all right , i do n't get it . so , why is franco -- carly ! you and franco ? carly : no ! excuse me . uh , ms . jacks ? you asked me to keep an eye out for this . carly : thank you . uh - huh . okay . here you go . alexis : what is this ? carly : lucas ' dna sample . now you can find out if sam and lucas are brother and sister . sam : do you need to sit down or anything ? kiki : no . no , thank you . i 'm just very pissed . you see , my mom told me that she was an only child . why would she lie to me about something like that ? silas : i do n't know . i guess you 're gon na have to ask her . kiki : you know , it 's probably the same reason she lied to me about you -- because she 's trying to work some angle . silas : mm . i do n't know . kiki : i honestly have an uncle that i know nothing about ? silas : i never met him , you know , but ... ava did make a point of telling me her brother was connected , and he had a lot of money . kiki : what 's his name ? franco : do i know how to box ? ' course i know how to -- who does n't know how to box ? derek : great , great . then , uh , let 's get started . franco : the thing is , i did n't bring any of my gear . you know , i do n't have my satin shorts or my gloves or , you know , the fantastic , little booties . derek : today 's your lucky day , because the , uh , gym can hook you up with everything you need . franco : great . lucky me . derek : yeah . so , okay . here are the terms . um , i beat you , you stay away from carly . franco : if i beat you , then carly 's off your radar . derek : yeah , i was n't finished . uh , you also need to stop annoying me . you ca n't eat at the metro court same time i 'm there , and i really need you to just stop coming around here . franco : all right . good , 'cause , you know , i spend so much time around here . derek : okay , so , uh ... i win , you 're done with me ... and carly . deal ? sonny : you need a job ? [ sighs ] michael : you know , tracy threw me out of elq , which is fine . i mean , i would n't want to work for her , anyway . sonny : yeah , i do n't blame you on that one . michael : i 've been sending out résumés , but let 's face it -- the first thing they see is that i 'm a convicted felon . so i 'm basically un - hirable , and i -- uh , i need work . sonny : michael , how many times have we had this conversation ? i love you , right ? but you ca n't -- you ca n't g - go anywhere near my organization . michael : i was n't thinking that . i was thinking more like somewhere in the coffee warehouse . i could do anything . i could be in charge of schedules . i - i can drive a forklift or -- a delivery truck -- anything . sonny : michael , my coffee shipment was blown up two weeks ago . if i have you anywhere near there , your mother 's gon na have my head . michael : she does n't have a say in this , okay ? look , i want to help you any way i can . you 're my father . sonny : i do n't want to lose another son . michael : look , dad . morgan may have turned his back on you , but that 's not what i 'm gon na do . sonny : all right . i 'll see what i can do . michael : yeah ? sonny : yeah . but first , we got to deal with your mom . alexis : this really contains a sample of your brother 's dna ? carly : yes . alexis : [ sighs ] carly : danny 's jason 's son . he deserves to know where he came from , and for him to know that , sam needs to know where she came from . it 's that simple . alexis : thank you , carly . carly : you 're welcome . not sure how sam 's gon na feel about having a mobster father . alexis : she 'll just have that much more in common with her sisters . carly : and she 'll have a great brother . alexis : [ sighs ] if you see sam , i have n't told her yet . i just want to be sure before i tell her . carly : i hope you get the answers you 're looking for . kiki : my mom must 've mentioned her brother 's name . silas : hmm . now that i think about it , she never did . it -- it was always just `` my brother . `` kiki : see , i would just go out and ask her , but she would never give me a straight answer . silas : mm . sam : hey . i am a p.i . i could find out for you . i could look into this . kiki : oh , uh , th - thank you so much for that offer , but i do n't have any money to pay you . sam : are you kidding ? i would n't want -- i - i would n't want you to pay me . kiki : oh , no . but i - i 'm really not a moocher . that 's actually why i 'm here . uh , i - it 's one of the reasons . i was hoping that there would be a job here , maybe something administrative ? silas : i see . kiki : uh , uh , i - i do n't mean to take advantage of your newfound status as my father . it 's just , i -- silas : i do n't have a problem with that . kiki : no , i - i just really -- really ? silas : yeah . no , it 's -- it 's all right . i 'm just -- i 'm just curious . why -- why would you want to work here ? it 's beige and sterile , and there 's people who are sick , and there 's people who are crazy , or both . kiki : i lived with the quartermaines . sam : mm .

[ cell phone rings ] silas : hello ? jordan : oh , thank god , ava . listen to me very carefully . kiki : this does n't make any sense . she went to the doctor 's for cramps before , and they said that she had nothing to worry about , but why would she be in so much pain ? morgan : i do n't know . the only way we 're gon na find out , though , is if we get her to g.h . ava : i know why . i think i 'm going into labor . carly : please tell me that the danger is over and no one is gon na come after my son again . sonny : carly , we already told you that the jeromes are in retreat . i 'm gon na take care of my family . carly : i know . i 'm -- sonny : do n't you have a wedding to plan ? carly : yeah . bye , shawn . shawn : see you , carly .

[ scene_break ] lulu : i imagine , most of the time , this chapel does n't see as many happy people as it did today . you probably do n't get a lot of weddings -- certainly not like sonny and carly 's . and , uh ... now you have another joyful person in here -- me . thank you for making it possible for me to have another baby -- for rocco to have a little brother or sister . a baby that i can carry , that i can give birth to myself . a baby who will be with me and dante from his or her earliest months . as much trouble as we 've had , for something this wonderful to actually happen , i know that you must have had a hand in it . i have so much goodness and grace in my life , beginning with dante . [ scene_break ] dante : you know , lulu 's been good to you . she considers you a friend . and then you go and betray her trust by kissing her , and when she does n't reciprocate , she tells you to back off , you start trashing me ? dillon : oh , is that the real problem ? you do n't like what i told lulu about you ? dante : no , i tell you what , i do n't like all of this . i do n't like how you dropped in out of nowhere , dredging up all this history between the two of you , using that to take advantage of her , to shoot your movie on her boat . i do n't like the fact that you have inappropriate feelings for her , and i sure as hell do n't like the fact that you kissed my wife . dillon : i did n't do anything worse than what you did to valerie . at least when i kissed lulu , i had actual feelings for her . i care about her . i was n't just using lulu to work through my frustrations the way that you used valerie . dante : i was wrong , and i 'm struggling to make it up to my wife . dillon : yeah , i hear you guys are doing better than ever . how -- how 's valerie ? dante : valerie 's fine . you know , valerie and i have talked , and we both decided to put this in the past . but you 've chosen to ignore that and kiss my wife and try to move in on her . dillon : [ scoffs ] valerie is n't over you , man . she is still into you . dante : did she tell you that ? dillon : yeah , it was confession time . valerie was trying to forget about you , and i was trying to forget about lulu , so we came clean with each other . dante : uh - huh ! well , look -- i 'm sorry to say . i like valerie . i do . i do n't feel the same way for her as she feels for me . i 'm in love with my wife . dillon : yeah , well , she knows that now -- believe me . if she did n't know it before , she definitely knows it now . you brought that reality home when you flipped out on her , because you thought she was pregnant with your baby . [ scene_break ] lulu : i 've done a lot of questionable things . i guess i do n't have to tell you that . but i do have to ask you why ? why me ? there are other people ... good people who do n't have half the love in their lives that i do . thank you -- i guess that 's what i 'm trying to say . thank you . nikolas : lulu , you okay ? lulu : i 'm happy .

[ scene_break ] dillon : what 's the matter , detective ? the thought never crossed your mind that valerie might be upset , that after you tore her heart out , she might need somebody to talk to -- a shoulder to cry on , since the man she 's in love with ca n't be bothered ? dante : what exactly did she tell you ? dillon : i have an idea -- why do n't i ask the questions for a while ? okay , detective ? for instance , where do you get off coming down so hard on me for kissing lulu when you slept with her cousin ? [ scene_break ] lulu : so ever since hayden lost her memory , you like her better . nikolas : lulu , i did n't say that . lulu : before she showed up in port charles , you and her had a fling in europe ? does hayden remember any of that ? nikolas : she says she does n't . she also says she does n't remember pretending to be jake 's wife . lulu : so if she does n't remember any of your relationship , why would you take her in ? what , just to be nice , or are you two ... nikolas : what ? no . no , not -- not this time . lulu : really ? nikolas : anyway -- no , really . look , hayden and i always had a spark . seems to still be there . only this time , there seems to not be an agenda . she 's kind , supportive , and spencer 's crazy about her . lulu : spencer loved britt . that does n't fill me with confidence . nikolas : spencer loves you . lulu : i 'm his aunt . he 's obligated . what about you ? seem to be having some feelings for this person ? nikolas : i do n't ... it just -- it seems to be easier this time because she 's so different . lulu : wait , are you hoping that hayden does n't recover from her memory loss ? nikolas : to be honest , that 's exactly what i 'm hoping . [ scene_break ] hayden : okay , so what do i have to do to get my memory back ? patrick : well , that depends . how much of your life do you recall from before you were shot ? hayden : almost nothing . that 's why i called elizabeth -- i mean , nurse webber . elizabeth : oh , please . go on . you were talking about how you do n't remember anything . hayden : well , i just get these flashes , but they do n't make any real sense , and they do n't give me any real answers . patrick : just flashes ? hayden : yes . patrick : okay . hayden : did the mri give you any indication of when i 'll get my memory back ? patrick : actually , yeah , it did , and the good news is the damage was pretty minimal , all things considered . and based on these results and other cases that i 've encountered , there 's no medical reason why you had n't recovered . hayden : i 'm not sure that i understand . patrick : your memory should have returned by now .

[ scene_break ] nathan : look , if i was gon na tell anybody , it would be you , because i love you , and i trust you . all right , but i also know you . maxie : what 's that supposed to mean ? nathan : sometimes , you let your good intentions get in the way of doing what 's right . maxie : after that whole mess with georgie and dante and lulu 's baby , i have learned my lesson . nathan : i know you have . maxie : and that 's why you can trust me . nathan : maxie , you are making way too big a deal of something that does n't directly affect either of us . maxie : okay . maybe you 're right . maybe i am overthinking this . it 's just that keeping things from each other almost broke us up before . we were this close to losing each other all because i did n't tell you that spinelli wanted me back .

[ scene_break ] nathan : i do n't even like to think about that dark chapter in our lives . maxie : that only happened because i kept a secret from you . nathan : yeah , but that secret was about us , and this one is not . maxie : all i 'm saying is -- nathan : maxie , i 'm not gon na tell you , okay ? look , and about you not telling me about spinelli -- well , we found our way back from that . all right ? and now we 're together with each other , and there 's a tray of snacks and a bottle of wine and a bed just waiting for us . and we can forget about other people 's craziness and it can just be us , okay ? no one else . maxie : you may have a point . nathan : all right ? so when i 'm here with you , and i 'm looking into your beautiful eyes , and i know that i love you and you love me ... no one else matters . it 's like we 're the only two people on the face of the planet . and that , to me , is the best feeling on earth . maxie : to me , too .

hayden has a doctor 's appointment to assess her recovery after getting shot and losing her memory . knowing that , nikolas is very cautious about letting her meet privately with patrick and not letting him know what might be happening ( i.e . , if she might be regaining her memory as well as the means to reveal all the secrets she previously knew about him ) . elizabeth also wants to know what might be expected given hayden 's current prognosis . patrick runs test and informs hayden there is no medical reason why she would not have fully regained all of her memory of everything before the shooting . elizabeth attentively listens to that and is worried what that might mean and knows she needs to prevent hayden from revealing to jake and sam that elizabeth knows he 's really jason and is keeping that secret and marrying sam 's husband . elizabeth confronts hayden and demands to know if she is faking her memory loss . meanwhile , jake and sam are still determined to find out who he was before his injury and his subsequent amnesia . she calls spinelli and it appears he might not only be able successfully hack into nikolas ' computer to find out what they need . sam 's and jason 's friend , the jackal , might be consciously or unconsciously aware of who jake really is ( jason ) . dante goes to confront dillon having found out that he kissed lulu and disregarded her telling him she does not return his feelings for her and is committed to her husband . in response to that , dillon informs dante he has no reason to judge when dante slept with his wife 's cousin and kept it a secret . learning that he knows , dante realizes he is at the mercy of whether dillon wants to keep the secret from lulu or not . maxie and nathan discuss the morality and justification of keeping secrets vs. revealing the truth to everyone .

what were you trying to accomplish by stabbing that unfortunate man and then shoving him off of a balcony ? alexis : get away from me . helena : i knew you would turn on stefan eventually . all he needed was your so- called legal expertise . and you betrayed him . alexis : as opposed to poisoning him and throwing him overboard ?

[ scene_break ] sonny : joey limbo has no loyalty to anyone . he 's unpredictable . he 's a loose cannon who can go off on anyone with no reason . there 's a real possibility that with joey 's release , things are going to get ugly fast . and i have my concerns about your ability to step up . dominic : concerns , maybe , but you know i 'm going to come through . sonny : do i ? why do you think we 're having this conversation ? dominic : all you have to do is give me the order . i 'll do what needs to be done . claudia : i think dominic 's the right man for the job , sonny . and i 'll do whatever i can to make sure this happens . dominic : what 's this ? claudia : oh , contact info on a few people who have worked with joey in the past . you mention my name , they 'll give you the real 4 - 1 - 1 . dominic : i appreciate it . sonny : hey . as soon as you find anything useful , i expect to hear from you . dominic : okay . i 'm on it . what was that about ? claudia : me trying to be helpful . sonny : to dominic ? that 's like a 180 . claudia : he works for us . sonny : yeah , over your objections . you 've hated the guy since day one . all of a sudden , you 're going to tolerate him ? claudia : okay , fine -- sonny : you even go a step further and help the guy ? what are you trying to do ? claudia : i 'm guilty ! sonny : what ? claudia : guilty as charged . absolutely . i have an ulterior motive . sonny : okay , great . that 's what i like to hear . claudia : look ... he did our family a big favor , right ? he stepped in front of a moving car to save morgan 's life . i know how much that meant to you . and i know that you 've been looking for a way to pay him back ever since , right ? sonny : i 'm not going to argue with that . claudia : okay . i think you like dominic . you want him to succeed . maybe you see your younger self a little bit in him . i do n't know . whatever . the point is , if it 's something you want , then it 's something i want . see , i 'm all about you , sonny . [ scene_break ] sam : your ambition just wrote a check your butt ca n't cash . jason has a pit bull for an attorney . i do n't know if you 've heard of her , diane miller ? she 's gon na have these charges dropped and your badge yanked . police officer : i 'd curb my urge to talk if i were you . i 'm starting to feel threatened . jason : i wish -- sam : no , are you kidding me ? there is a pesky little thing you need to file criminal charges . it 's called evidence . you do n't have any . police officer : mr. morgan made it clear he 'd prefer your services to mine . sam : [ chuckles ] of course . you are a sleazed - out hooker . i am his ... police officer : yes ? sam : i 'm his ... friend . i mean , i 'm a girl . and i 'm his friend . what ? second police officer : his girlfriend . have n't heard that one before . sam : oof . police officer : if mr. morgan 's your lover , why not do the deed at home ? sam : oh , as if that is any of your business ! two consenting adults can have sex wherever they want . i mean , within reason . and certainly this sleazy motel is ... perfect . look ... this bust is n't going to do you any good . police officer : transport the prisoners to the pcpd . second police officer : let 's go , folks . sam : come on ! i know my rights ! jason , jason ! you know your rights .

[ chuckles ] she played him abominably from the start . and she did n't count on you waiting in the background ready to console nikolas with sex at the first opportunity . elizabeth : you know , i am so glad to see having a mysterious , life - threatening illness has n't mellowed you one bit . helena , you can think what you want , you can say what you want , nobody 's going to believe your insane rantings . helena : except that i 'm telling the truth . and we both know it . you know , you remind me so much of laura . elizabeth : laura ? helena : a craven manipulator posing as a paragon of virtue , leaving emotional destruction in her path . elizabeth : i have no idea what you 're talking about . helena : oh , i watched her . i watched her drive my sons to distraction , pitting brother against brother , just to win her faithless heart . laura toyed with stefan and stavros the same way you are toying with nikolas and lucky . lucky , that poor fool . eyes shimmering with loyalty and trust . can you imagine the devastation when lucky learns that he is being doubly betrayed ? his one true love sleeping with his brother ? it might be enough to send him reeling back into addiction hell . elizabeth : shut your mouth , or i will shut it for you . helena : what did i say ? luke : looks like i got here just in time . [ chuckles ] helena : luke ! join us . you might find our conversation both fascinating and illuminating . luke : is lucrezia borgia spitting up poison at you , elizabeth ? elizabeth : no , i 'm fine . helena : elizabeth and i were just discussing the illusion of morality , a pretense that you and i would not waste time on . luke : very esoteric . helena : oh , it 's really quite simple . say that there is one man that i want to marry for reasons that are , well , somewhat ... yes , esoteric . but there is a catch . you see , there 's someone else that i really want in my bed . so you see , moral dilemma . something that elizabeth , i 'm sure , knows a bit about . luke : well , helena , i know that you do n't grace many hospital beds with your acerbic wit , so here is a little tip -- it 's not wise to piss off the medical personnel standing by your bed with scalpels handy and needles and radioactive isotopes that could be injected into your i.v . line . helena : oh , elizabeth and i are old adversaries . oh , sparring is our means of communication , right , dear ? luke : leave her alone ! spar with me . that 's what i 'm here for . do your worst . helena : [ chuckles ] so gallant and so protective . well , you might not be so quick to jump to elizabeth 's defense if you knew what i know . luke : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : look , i appreciate the concern , but i wo n't be dragging you into the middle of any cassadine wars anytime soon . rebecca : look , i 'm just saying that you can depend on me . nikolas , i 'll stand by you , against anything , anyone . including the scary cassadines who eat women like me for lunch . lucky : i hope you had better luck convincing nikolas to send helena back to greece where she belongs . rebecca : that 's his call to make . nikolas : i need her here at the moment . lucky : why ? nikolas : to get information on this long - lost uncle of mine . lucky : you know you ca n't trust anything she says . she 'll probably tell you exactly the opposite of what you need to know . she 's just looking for a way back in , and you 're standing there holding the door wide open for her . nikolas : she 's the only source of information i 've got right now ! lucky : well , i 'm strongly suggesting you find somebody else . because if you let her back in , it 's you who 's going to leash hell on all of us . [ scene_break ] mac : well , what do we have here ? jason morgan , visible hit man , makes a public transaction for sex . and just when i was about to blow off my day . sam : oh , funny . yay . have a laugh . get over it . come on , mac . stop this , please . mac : why would i do that ? sam : because we were n't soliciting . the idea that jason would have to pay me for ... this is stupid . police officer : i saw cash exchanged . sam : we were renting a room . mac : at the blue palms motel . sam : hey . do n't judge . mac : what about you ? jason : i have nothing to say -- mac : without your attorney . i 've heard that before . all right , look , we 'll write up the booking slip and sort it out later . come on . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] olivia : johnny , please , i ca n't go another round with you . johnny : i 'm not surprised to hear that . you 're not really that good of a liar . but i got good news for you -- you can stop that right now . olivia : johnny -- johnny : yeah , i went to claudia 's last night and i talked to her . and she did n't come right out and admit it , okay , but she basically all but said that she 's the reason that you broke up with me , that she forced the issue somehow . olivia : nobody forces me to do anything . johnny : yeah . you know , i can fix this and i 've already started to . olivia : what do you mean ? johnny : i acted with this instead of with this . okay , arguing with claudia , fighting with her , threatening her , yelling at her -- that is playing her game on her home field where she feels comfortable and knows how to win . we 've got ta hit her in that one soft , vulnerable spot , and that is her love for me . olivia : okay , i 'm not sure i follow . johnny : okay . i told claudia exactly what she wanted to hear , that blood trumps water any day of the week and twice on sundays ; that she 's my sister and i love her no matter what . so much , in fact , that i told her i was giving up taking her advice and not going to fight for you anymore . olivia : what 's that supposed to do ? johnny : it 's gon na make her back off . man . why did n't we see it like this from the beginning ? you know , if we had kept us in secret , under wraps , she would have had no reason to threaten you in the first place , right ? so that 's plan a . plan b. , if she does n't buy any of it , is that i have plenty information on claudia that she does not want leaked . as you know , this is information that will blow her life , her cushy little comfy life with sonny , to pieces . and i will not hesitate for a second to use that . okay , so you do not need to be afraid anymore . but you also need to be truthful with me so i can finally protect you . what 's claudia holding over that head of yours ? [ scene_break ] maxie : i hope you are sufficiently embarrassed with yourself , mr. exploiter of women . of course you 'd rather pay for sex than actually get involved in some emotional intimacy . spinelli : i must also express my disappointment . not only is this an egregious betrayal of fair samantha , but as my affianced points out , there 's a larger ethical issue here . to wit , taking unfair advantage of the woman in question , who was no doubt forced into the oldest profession by dire financial need or horrific personal circumstance . maxie : do you have anything to say for yourself ? sam : well , i 'm glad to see you two . did you post bail ? maxie : you were arrested , too ? sam : yeah . i know , it 's actually really ridiculous , and i ca n't believe mac actually took it all the way to the booking process . spinelli : humble , humble apologies for -- oh , my , for jumping to such an erroneous conclusion . maxie : oh , my god ! you two were role - playing ! jason ! way to go . i did n't know you had it in you . [ scene_break ] alexis : hey . diane : hi , hi . alexis : ooh , hi . diane : thank you so much for meeting me here . i am swamped . this case in philadelphia is taking all of my time . i was barely able to clear one day to fly back and check in at the office . i 'm kinda sorry i did because the paperwork that is piling up is just staggering . alexis : will anyone be joining us ? diane : no . no , it 's just you and me , it 's just us girls . oh , gosh , there is so much to catch up on . it 's just been weeks . of course , i want to know how you 're doing , how you 're recovering from that horrible incident at the carnival . ca n't say i was sorry that andrea floyd was flattened . alexis : max is fine . diane : excuse me ? alexis : max . remember max ? the one you 're waiting for and the reason why you asked me to meet you here instead of at the office ? diane : i wanted to buy you a drink . [ chuckles ] and if max happens to walk in , either alone or in the company of that , ahem , career - climbing a.d.a . with the bad shoes , well , then it will give me the chance to ignore him completely as he thoroughly deserves . okay , look . are you certain that max is completely recovered from being hit by that car ? because when i got that message from milo , it said there was a chance of spinal damage . and max has always been so flexible and strong , and the thought of that big lug being permanently impaired ... what am i saying ? ! [ laughs ] i could n't care less about max giambetti . i mean , not that i wish the man ill , but , you know . it is completely irrelevant to me who or what he does or does n't do . alexis : so i 've seen max at sonny 's quite a few times since i go over there a lot now since sonny and i are co - parenting . diane : right , right . and how is krissie ? alexis : some days are better than others . you do n't want to know about kristina . come on , you want to talk about max , so let 's talk about max . max is fine emotionally . he 's a little somber . diane : define somber . are we talking about sort of mildly down in the dumps , or is his heart -- alexis : diane , what did you do to the poor guy ? diane : me ? ! alexis : yes ! diane : me ? ! we were having a perfectly lovely celebratory encounter and max fabricates a fight , uses it as an excuse to go running off to the carnival where apparently he saves louise addison 's life . and i have n't heard from him since . she is younger and prettier . she does n't dress as well , but she makes him feel like a hero . i have to face it , alexis . i 've been dumped . alexis : aw .

[ chuckles ] you know , i 'm starting to think that saving your life was a gross mistake . helena : what ? you would kill me for the high crime of telling the truth about that mealy - mouthed little betrayer ? elizabeth webber or spencer or whatever she calls herself is a far cry from the angel she purports to be . well , you may not be interested in what elizabeth has done . but i guarantee you , lucky will be .

[ scene_break ] lulu : [ stammering ] i 'm not sure what i 'm hearing . you could really father a child with a dangerous psycho like claudia and just let it roll off your back ? dominic : i told you about not knowing my father . i mean , that was just a fact of my life , like having dark hair . i did n't dwell on it or beat my chest with all the things i missed out on . i had a really good childhood . i had a great family ; i had good people around me , like mr. poletti . i thought that 's what was ahead for me . a nice wife , a couple of kids , planned for , wanted , loved . i know , call me corny and old - fashioned , but i 'm not about to take a big crayon and mark all over that dream by fathering some kid whose sole purpose in life is just to be a pawn .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : hi . have you seen nikolas ? rebecca : earlier , yeah . apparently there 's some tension between him and lucky about helena . elizabeth : yeah , well , nikolas should listen to lucky . helena is evil and he should have never brought her here . rebecca : well , he 's in a difficult position , elizabeth . i would think you , of all people , would understand that . but no matter how awful she is , she 's still his grandmother , right ? and now she 's sick , apparently terrified of this mysterious relative -- elizabeth : you do n't know what you 're talking about . you have no idea the type of damage helena can inflict . and you better pray you never find out . [ scene_break ] luke : make no mistake , my little venus fly trap , the only reason you 're sucking air is because you can provide information about your funny valentin . do n't think for a minute you 're going to parlay that into open season on the spencers . helena : your utter lack of concern amazes me . it makes me that much more impressed with elizabeth 's mastery of duplicity . but then again , it 's only lucky 's welfare that we 're talking about . the dispensable son . oh , luke ! ow ! ooh ! luke : like that ? like that ? nikolas : did you get anything useful out of her ? luke : i 'm done here . you work her over for a while . if she does n't give you anything useful , ship her back to greece . she was already well on her way to knocking at death 's door . maybe we should have just left her to her fate . helena : well . my darling grandson . i ca n't thank you enough for saving my life . and for proving that at your core , you are a cassadine through and through . nikolas : oh , grandmother , do n't divulge yourself . at best , you 're a temporary , necessary evil . i 'm warning you -- [ cell phone rings ] nikolas : if i find out that this was a set - up ... i have to go . helena : a summons from elizabeth ? [ scene_break ] diane : i thank god for this philadelphia case , because not only will my cut of the settlement be considerable , but it keeps me from dwelling on just how shallow and disappointing max giambetti turned out to be . alexis : diane , why do n't you just call him ? diane : absolutely not . diane miller does not grovel . and i have already spent too much time wallowing in regret over what amounts to obviously a very trivial affair . alexis : okay . if you say so . diane : i do . so how do you like pro bono work ? alexis : it turns out that i enjoy practicing law in service of clients who are actually innocent . diane : mm - hmm . well , how would you feel about defending clients that are undeniably guilty but would pay through the nose for your services ? okay . i want you to join my law firm . alexis : no . diane : hang on . consider coming on board as of council until we can determine if our styles are compatible . you would have your own office , excellent support staff , and i would have someone who i trust implicitly keeping the firm afloat while i am in philadelphia wrapping up this case . alexis : very generous offer . but i like what i do , and i do n't think i 'm a very good choice , considering your client list . diane : you do n't want to defend sonny . alexis : no , no , i do n't . i do n't . i 've been there , done that . and i lived to tell about it , and i gained a beautiful daughter who is one of the three lights of my life . but , you know , it turns out that i do n't enjoy organized crime . diane : [ scoffs ] alexis : i 'm not judging you . i mean , who am i to judge , right ? because , you know , every criminal -- client deserves a right to a vigorous defense . and you provide that beautifully . and you 're well - compensated , as you should be . but , you know , here 's what i 'm going to have to say -- no . uh , no . diane : okay , all right , fine . then ... then consider this a cry for help . i am in philadelphia all the time these days , but my clients here still need attending to . look , if something major comes up , like a murder or rico violations , something you do n't want to touch , then i will simply refer it to chris o'shea until i can get back and handle it personally . but for the day to day , contracts and hand - holding , the occasional posting of bail , alexis , you are invaluable . alexis : sonny and i have a really good co - parenting relationship right now . to work with him professionally would be a disaster , because even though my intentions will be very good from the start , at some point , i will take a flying leap into a slippery slope . i 'll start ignoring that he 's guilty , rationalizing his intent , and then eventually , i will be helping him commit murder . diane : i just told you ! i 'll help him commit murder . alexis : he 's the father of my daughter , okay ? i do not want to be focusing every day on how big of a fat crook he is ! so please , i do n't want to have to say it again , so do n't ask me again , all right ? diane : all right , all right . alexis : no . diane : fine ! alexis : no . diane : fine ! alexis : no . diane : ohh . alexis : no .

[ scene_break ] kiki : my mom told me her whole life that she was an only child , and it turns out that my mom has a brother . sonny : did you just say ava jerome has a brother ? kiki : yeah , that 's what silas just told me . sonny : a brother ? that 's interesting .

[ scene_break ] franco : this is nice . there 's two of you . [ sighs ] carly : are you proud of yourself ? derek : well , i was trying to pull my punches . the , uh , left got away from me . carly : you do realize he just had brain surgery ? derek : [ sighs ] okay , well , boxing is one of those sports where you proceed at your own risk , so ... carly : franco 's an artist . he knows nothing about boxing . franco : do , too ! i 've got gloves . carly : i do n't get it . why were you two sparring ? what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] ava : this is a conversation for another time . morgan : but diane 's -- she 's right here , and she can handle this , no problem , right ? diane : let me just ... make sure i get my facts straight . morgan is married to kiki , who is a lovely girl , by the way . got to know her while she was masquerading as a quartermaine . ava : kiki was n't masquerading as anything . it was a misunderstanding . diane : you 'd be surprised how many of those misunderstandings occur when there 's a huge inheritance at stake . but i digress . so , morgan is married to kiki and is now romantically entangled with her mother . ava : it 's complicated . diane : [ chuckling ] no . no . no , please . no , i 'm surprised you would say that . morgan , you 've been busy ! gosh , it was n't so long ago i remember that you could entertain yourself just with a bucket of legos . but who am i to judge ? ava : well , clearly , that 's not stopping you . diane : i 'm not surprised that you need a divorce , morgan , all things considered . morgan : no , no . i - i do n't -- i do n't think you get it , okay ? i did n't hook up with kiki 's mother until kiki hooked up with my brother . [ scene_break ] kiki : why do you think it 's so fascinating that my mom lied about having a brother ? michael : uh , do you remember that first day at your mom 's apartment in the city , my dad kept asking you about your last name ? he was trying to figure out if your mom has a connection to the jerome crime family . kiki : a - and you all think that this proves she does ? [ scene_break ] franco : [ grunts ] carly : hey . franco : she 's helping me out . carly : will you please help me get his gloves off ? derek : he 's not entirely helpless . carly : i did n't ask your opinion . derek : wow , you 're really mad at me , are n't you ? carly : you know what , mr. wells ? if i were really mad at you , you would know , okay ? derek : so , this is concern ? carly : this is me asking you to back off . derek : oh . carly : hey . franco : hmm ? carly : are you still seeing two of me ? franco : sadly , no , but the one i do see is still gorgeous . carly : you ca n't flirt with me right now . franco : okay . um , i 'm a little out of it . [ chuckles ] derek : you sound coherent enough to me . carly : no one 's answered my question . why were you two pounding on each other ? derek : so , okay , here are the terms . i beat you , you stay away from carly . franco : if i beat you , then carly 's off your radar . derek : so , are you gon na tell her , or , uh , am i ? [ scene_break ] sonny : what do you -- what do you know about your mother 's brother ? kiki : nothing , really . i - i did n't even know he existed until silas told me about him this morning . sonny : mm - hmm . kiki : my mom told me her whole life that she was an only child , and i ... [ sighs ] she said she was just like me -- that it was great for parents of only children because they had more time and money to spend on them . sonny : what else did silas say about , uh , ava 's brother ? kiki : uh , he -- he never met the brother . um , he -- he said that ava told him that , um , he was rich and had connections . shawn : what kind of connections ? kiki : he did n't know . i - i really do n't think he knew . sonny : did , uh , silas say anything else ? kiki : it 's not like we had an in - depth conversation about it . i - i really just think that silas felt guilty for revealing yet another one of my mother 's lies . michael : look , try and remember . i mean , any -- any details could be helpful . kiki : uh , well , silas said that he -- he first met my mom when he was right out of med school and that my mom was just a gallerina , which is -- it 's basically like an assistant , and that -- and that she would brag about having this brother that was going to buy her her own gallery . [ scene_break ] diane : while this unique family dynamic is simply fascinating , ava , it 's not going to get that contract signed , so i 'm going to suggest to you that you get your silent partner to sign it , and quickly , before franco decides that he wants odile 's gallery to show his work and not yours . ava : i 'm on my way . good luck . diane : before you and i go any farther , i do not know what your financial situation is , and lord knows i do n't want to talk myself out of a job , but in the interest of full disclosure and professional ethics , i 'm going to suggest that you go to your father and use his attorney . i know that sonny still has alexis on retainer . morgan : okay , that wo n't happen ! all right ? my father 's out of my life . [ scene_break ] sam : what about my father ? alexis : it 's -- it 's complicated -- potentially complicated . you know what ? it may be nothing at all . it could be a force -- sam : excuse me , mom . you 're starting to ramble here , which means that normally -- you 're -- you 're normally nervous , and i - i want you to know right now that i am -- i am not mad at you or upset . i 'm just -- i 'm just a little confused and kind of curious . alexis : i do n't blame you . sam : okay . when you said that you found out things about my father , you said the only thing you knew -- that he was from new hampshire and you met him in a bar and his name was julian . did you find something else out ? alexis : possibly . sam : okay . alexis : and it 's just a theory . actually , it 's more of a stretch . it 'll probably evaporate into nothing . sam : okay , but if it does n't evaporate and your theory is right ... come on . you 've gone this far . you 've got to tell me . mom , this is my father you 're talking about . alexis : all right , i know . i know . you have a right to know , even if i 'm way off . sam : i get it . i get it . you could be wrong . consider me duly warned . alexis : i 'm trying to find out if your father , julian , is a man named julian jerome . [ scene_break ] carly : does it hurt ? franco : no . ooh ! ooh ! feels really good to look at you . derek : [ scoffs ] oh , if that is the best line he can come up with , maybe i hit him harder than i thought . carly : why hit him at all ? derek : that 's kind of the point of boxing . carly : that 's why you should n't have been in the ring to begin with . derek : nobody forced him , although you could benefit from a few lessons and learn how to duck . carly : how about learn how to hit a guy who 's just had brain surgery ? derek : are you implying that he 's impaired ? franco : no , i am not im -- oh . i 'm not impaired much . carly : okay , i 'm getting you to the hospital . franco : no , no . carly : come on . let 's go . franco : carly , hey . [ sighs ] that 's very sweet of you , but i 'm actually a lot more resilient than you think . derek : mm - hmm . no argument here . he 's still talking after that left to the jaw . carly : oh , god . you think this is funny ? you should be ashamed of yourself . come on . derek : hey , um , what about our lunch later ? you , uh , still in ? okay , but -- fine . but i - i want a - a , uh -- a rain check . [ scene_break ] diane : i 'm not sure that i quite understand . you are on the outs with your father ? morgan : yeah . that 's one way to describe it . diane : morgan , attorneys do many things , but primarily they give advice , and so my advice to you is that you go and you talk to your father . morgan : my father is the reason i 'm getting the divorce ! okay ? if it were n't for him , kiki and i would still be together ! diane : so , sonny -- sonny disapproves -- morgan : he stabbed me in the back ! okay ? he broke his word , and he did it all so he could send my wife into the arms of my brother , because michael 's his favorite . he always has been . he always will be . and you know what ? i 'm sick of it . diane : have you discussed these feelings with your father , however misguided they may be ? morgan : listen , he talks a good game . okay ? he 's sincere . he gets choked up when he talks about loving me , but it means nothing . okay ? all he cares about is michael 's happiness , not mine . diane : [ clears throat ] please forgive my expression , but that is , um -- that is the biggest pile of crap i 've ever heard . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , um , your mother got money to start an art gallery from her brother ? kiki : is that significant , or ... sonny : no , it 's -- just be a coincidence , you know ? kiki : a coincidence with what ? michael : uh , i do n't think my dad has any more , uh -- has any more questions . sonny : michael . you 've been very helpful . thank you . i appreciate everything that you 've said . kiki : i 'm not sure how i helped , but i 'm -- i 'm glad i could . sonny : mike , i 'm gon na think about what we discussed , okay ? michael : all right , thank you . sonny : it 's good to see you again . michael : you , too . sonny : so , ava 's lying about her brother , who has connections and money , who helped her start up , uh , an art gallery . shawn : maybe there is no brother . maybe ava was lying to silas . sonny : why ? shawn : maybe she 's got another guy on the string . he fronted the money for the gallery , but she did n't want silas to know about it , so she made up this rich brother . sonny : all right , let 's try this scenario -- if she 's telling the truth about what happened back then and she had a brother who , you know , gave her money to start up an art gallery , why would she keep it from her daughter and lie to kiki ? shawn : and if the money 's dirty , she would n't want her kid to know . sonny : yeah , that 's what i 'm thinking . so , where 's that money coming from ? mob money ? shawn : dr. clay did say the brother was connected . sonny : so , who is this brother ... who 's profiting from mob money and has a sister with the last name `` jerome , `` as in ava jerome ? now , she arrives in port charles right around the same time as the name julian jerome suddenly ... resurfaces . shawn : you think ava jerome 's brother is julian jerome ? [ scene_break ] sam : and who is this julian jerome ? and , please , mom -- please , do n't tell me he 's related ava jerome . alexis : the idea that ava and -- and julian jerome are connected has been discussed , but ava denies it . sam : okay . all right . good . okay . um , so who is this guy ? alexis : okay . when frank smith went to prison -- this was before the rise of sonny corinthos -- it was sometime during the ' 80s -- organized crime in port charles was run by the jerome family . duke lavery actually worked for them . sam : okay , and what about julian ? alexis : [ sighs ] so , the head of the family was victor , julian 's father , and when victor died , julian took over , and ... sam : [ groans ] alexis : ... i understand he was a - a bit volatile and , uh , ruthless . sam : okay . um , are you telling me that my father is a mobster ? alexis : was a mobster . julian jerome is dead . [ scene_break ] ava : hey . your assistant told me i 'd find you here . derek : and , uh , yet you still seem surprised . ava : this is a little déclassé , even for you . derek : well , i thought you liked them a little rough around the edges , ava . ava : [ chuckles ] as long as they smell good . derek : hmm . ava : so , listen -- i tracked you down because i need a favor . derek : you usually do . ava : oh , what happened to your mouth ? derek : huh ? oh , this ? it 's -- it 's nothing . you should see the other guy . [ scene_break ] carly : okay , come on . come on . franco : [ chuckling ] okay . i 'm fine . carly : i should have taken you to the hospital . franco : no , i 'm ... carly : sit . franco : ... okay . i just -- ohh , it feels nice to sit . this may be all i need . carly : [ sighs ] franco : you know , i 've been meaning to tell you , your hotel has the most ... [ patting couch ] ... delightful furniture . it 's really nice . i think maybe i could sleep here for , like , a week . carly : no , no , no . okay . look at me . come on . come on . franco : i 'd love to . carly : look at me . right here . okay ? franco : yes . carly : you ca n't sleep , all right ? you had a blow to the head . you do n't know if you have a concussion . franco : i 'm fine . carly : we 'd know if you have a concussion if you 'd let me take you to the hospital . franco : okay , you 're doing it again . carly : i 'm doing what ? franco : you 're talking in circles . i say something , you say something , and it 's almost like we 're having a conversation , but then you shoot me down . you know what i 'm talking about . carly : [ sighs ] franco : yeah , those moments when you almost laugh , and then you get mad at me . and i do n't know whether you 're mad at me or you 're mad at yourself , because you almost laughed at what i had to say . hey , where are you going ? carly : i 'm gon na get some ice for you , okay ? franco : well , it 's over there . it 's right there on the table , right ere housekeeping keeps it for me . um ... you have a very attentive staff . carly : well , that 's what they get paid for . okay . there we go . franco : feels good . it does ... in a really , really cold , totally painful kind of way . carly : well , the hospital has painkillers . franco : i do n't need a hospital . i ... never want to go to a hospital . all i want is ... [ scene_break ] sam : so , this man you think is my father [ sighs ] is dead ? alexis : i do n't think he 's your father . i think there 's a chance that he 's your father , and i think that i owe it to you and danny to try to find that out . sam : why would you -- why would you even do this ? why ? i mean , danny and i -- we found a donor . why would you keep searching for my father ? alexis : because once i was forced to think about him and remember his name , i could n't stop thinking about him . i wanted to know who he was . i mean , is he alive ? is he dead ? is he the kind of man that you and danny would want to meet ? what about his medical history ? sam : okay . okay . i - i get -- i get why you 're -- you 're curious . i guess , i mean , i 'm a little curious , too , but i do n't -- i do n't get how you made the connection between my father and julian jerome . alexis : sonny was sort of vague about this , but , apparently , there 's some rival of his that 's putting pressure on him , so he asked shawn to make some inquiries , and so shawn asked this guy a question , and the guy told him that he worked for julian jerome . sam : wait a minute . worked for julian jerome ? how can -- [ chuckling ] how can that happen ? he 's dead . alexis : i - i -- obviously , he ca n't . i think that must have been some sort of misdirection , but what struck me was the name `` julian . `` i mean , how many julians are there , and -- and so it -- it -- i researched , and i found out that julian jerome went to college in new hampshire at the same time that i was at briarton - griggs . sam : okay , i get it . so -- so , you and this guy end up at a bar , and i 'm the result ? alexis : i was just trying to see if i could prove that . sam : by running tests ? alexis : yes . sam : and it did n't occur to you to tell me any of this ? alexis : i wanted to wait till i was sure . i did n't see the point of -- of telling you something -- sam : mom , you lied to me . you flat - out lied . alexis : okay . i did . i lied . i told them that you gave permission for the test . sam : [ sighs ] okay . so , um , what kind of tests ? alexis : dna tests . sam : a dna -- how can you do a dna test if this guy is dead ? alexis : it 's not a sample from julian jerome . it 's a sample from his son . sam : julian has a son ? alexis : apparently , he died before he realized that . sam : okay , well , who -- [ chuckles nervously ] i -- who is this guy ? alexis : carly 's brother . [ scene_break ] carly : wh - what are you doing ? franco : um ... nothing . but i want to kiss you . carly : what about your girlfriend ? franco : what ? i -- carly : no ! franco : i do n't have a -- what girlfriend ? carly : really ? what about diane ? huh ? diane , who you almost had for dessert in my restaurant -- your so - called groupie , diane ? franco : okay , i - i do n't have groupies -- not anymore . i gave them up , you know , the way some people give up red meat or booze or sugar . i am 100 % groupie - free . carly : you 're sleeping with diane . franco : okay , carly ... i 'm not sleeping with diane . [ scene_break ] diane : it 's no secret that your father and i have had our differences . sonny was very disappointed when i resigned from being his attorney and referred him back to alexis , and he was even more disappointed at my subsequent choice of clients , and we all know that your father is not a man who lives with disappointment easily . morgan : okay . well , if he 's a jerk to you , then why are you -- why are you defending him ? diane : because i respect him . he is smart . he is determined . some would say that he 's ruthless , but he 's had to be . he built himself up from nothing , morgan , and he 's still standing . he 's managed to survive in a ruthless business . his rivals come and go , but sonny corinthos still stands , and you got to admire that . morgan : well , i do n't -- not anymore . diane : i happen to know that the one thing your father values more than power is family . all the years that i was working for him , it was abundantly clear to me how much he loves all of his children -- dante , kristina , michael , and you , morgan . he loves you all fiercely and equally . morgan : yeah , well , it certainly does n't feel that way . diane : look , i know you 're very angry right now , but i think once you just calm down a little bit and you look deep into that heart of yours , you will see that what i am saying is the truth . your father 's not a perfect individual [ chuckling ] by any stretch of the imagination , but who among us is ? but he loves you , morgan . morgan : so , when do lawyers stop , uh , giving advice and start doing what they 're told ? diane : [ laughs ] oh , my god , that was so rude . it would be funny if it were n't so rude . but you sounded just like your father . morgan : that 's great . can we get on with the divorce ? are you gon na help me get out of my marriage or not ? [ scene_break ] michael : yeah , sorry if you felt like you were being interrogated in there . kiki : it was a little strange -- nothing i ca n't handle . michael : we were just really surprised when we found out your mom might have a -- had a brother . kiki : yeah , it 's not like i should be surprised . it 's just one lie after another . you know , first my dad is dead . then he 's franco . then he 's silas . then , uh -- well , then i 'm a quartermaine . oh , and then i was n't . and then i find out about an uncle that i never knew about . what 's next , huh ? ava jerome not gon na be my mother ? because that would n't surprise me . actually , it would be a relief at this point . michael : look , i 'm sorry you 're going through all this . i wish there was some way i could help you out right now . kiki : no . you know what ? you could make up my mind . should i go and ask my mom about my uncle ? is he alive or not ? or ... michael : um , actually , before you contact your mom , there 's probably something you should -- kiki : you know what ? it 's not like it would help anyway . i 'm not gon na get the truth from her , and i told her that i was never going to speak to her again . i do n't even know where she is . michael : i do . kiki : you do ? well , where is she ? michael : she 's -- she 's living with morgan . [ scene_break ] derek : so , uh , what is this ? ava : a contract for an art show in my new gallery here in port charles . it 's gon na be huge . derek : who 's your artist ? ava : franco . derek : franco ? well , that 's , uh , interesting . ava : why ? derek : well , because of the false claim of being kiki 's father , the whole quartermaine debacle , him tossing you out of the mansion , the fact that you lost that job that you really wanted at elq . i really did n't think you 'd want anything to do with franco . ava : okay . well , it 's true . derek : mm - hmm . ava : i despise the man . but it does n't mean i have a problem making money off of him , and there 's a lot of money to be made here ... for both of us . derek : you and franco or -- ava : no [ chuckles ] us -- you and me . derek : well , as much as i do love the idea of making a few bucks off of franco , i ca n't sign this . ava : why not ? derek : because i do n't want anyone to know i 'm your silent partner . they might figure out our real relationship . [ scene_break ] sonny : well , let 's just say , for argument 's sake , that ava 's telling the truth about her brother -- that he , uh , bought her this , you know , fancy art gallery in tribeca . somewhere down the line , he gets killed , right ? julian gets killed . maybe she lied about it because she did n't want anybody to know that she 's associated with the jeromes . shawn : makes sense . sonny : except ... the jeromes are all dead -- victor , the father , olivia , the daughter , and now julian . why would anyone want to lie about a dead man ? shawn : hmm . sonny : you know what i mean ? shawn : mm - hmm . sonny : i mean , they were n't that popular in port charles , and ... who cares ? [ chuckles ] shawn : so , what are you saying ? sonny : suddenly , a rival gang is in town ? you go to the enforcer , and you force him to tell you who the boss is . shawn : and he says , `` julian jerome . `` sonny : now , i know i gave you a lot of grief about this ... shawn : [ chuckles ] sonny : ... but you know what ? what if -- what if ... he 's telling the truth and julian jerome is alive ? [ scene_break ] morgan : kiki says she loves me , so we get married . why not , right ? diane : so , kiki wanted the marriage ? morgan : i wanted the marriage . does that make a difference ? diane : i 'm just jotting down some information . i 'm trying to formulate a strategy . proceed . morgan : [ sighs ] all right . well , since we got married at the courthouse , we did n't have a celebration , so ava offered to put on a party for us , which was very kind . ava was the only person who supported our marriage at that time . diane : how solicitous of her . morgan : it was supposed to be a belated wedding reception , but in the middle , my father , who you adore so much , decided that he was gon na announce that i knew kiki was n't a quartermaine -- that i kept that from her to keep her away from my brother , and as soon as she heard that , she left me right at the reception . diane : well , that must have been unpleasant . morgan : yeah , she ran to michael so fast , she left a vapor trail . so , can i get an annulment ? diane : morgan , now it seems that you perpetrated a fraud , so the annulment would be better if it were sought by kiki . morgan : she 's the one who left me , though ! diane : [ clears throat ] maybe i can formulate some type of case that , um , kiki abandoned the marriage , uh , due to discovery of facts heretofore unknown -- morgan : how about kiki told me she loved me before we got married , and then i do one little thing that she does n't like and she leaves me ? why ? because she was lying ! she did n't love me . she loved michael . diane : morgan [ sighs ] i am going to ask you to write down everything you can remember about your relationship with kiki . just jot it all down -- your own words . [ clicks pen ] and i 'm sure i can make a case for annulment . now , let 's you and i talk about my fee . morgan : you 're gon na get paid . do n't worry . diane : oh , i have no doubt , because you have quite the benefactress . it 's a grand arrangement for everyone . morgan : diane ... you 're not gon na flip on me , are you , and take michael 's side ? diane : when i took your case , i formally committed to being on your side . now , that 's a bit of a conflict of interest because i have represented michael in the past and i would do so again in a heartbeat , even if it had to be , god forbid , pro bono , because michael will always have a soft spot in my heart . morgan : why ? what has he ever done for you ? diane : the debacle that landed your brother in prison was , in large part , my fault . i mishandled your father 's case and alienated the judge , and then by the time your brother confessed , it was too late . but , morgan , i remember you at the courthouse -- how heartbroken you were . no one could deny the love between you and michael . morgan : okay , is this more advice ? diane : it 's just an observation . here 's my advice . my advice to you is that you take into account what i said about your father , because , unlike michael , who has two fathers , you only have one . [ scene_break ] kiki : they 're living together -- my mom and morgan ? uh , okay . i thought that morgan was just doing that to punish me -- that it was a one - time thing and he just did that because he was angry . michael : yeah , i thought the same thing , too , but it turns out we were wrong . kiki : [ sighs ] where the heck are they ? michael : your mom moved out of the hotel . she has a penthouse , and morgan is -- is staying with her . kiki : do you realize how beyond disgusting this is ? a one - night stand is one thing , but for them to be living together ? we have to do something , michael . where is this penthouse ? michael : why ? kiki : no , we have to get morgan out of there and away from her . [ scene_break ] derek : [ sighs ] ava : no one is ever gon na see that contract except the lawyers , and they 're bound by confidentiality , so no one will ever know that you are my silent partner . derek : except your client . ava : even if franco looks at the contract -- which i seriously doubt , because he never had any interest in paperwork before -- we 've already established that derek wells has a keen interest in art . how does that make you my brother ? derek : well , it 's still a risk , but , uh , well worth it . [ chuckles ] it actually amuses me to think how rankled franco will get when he has to hand over 10 % of his gallery sales to his rival for , uh , carly 's affections . ava : his what ? ! [ scene_break ] sam : carly 's brother ? lucas jones ? alexis : okay , tony and bobbie adopted lucas . cheryl stansbury and julian jerome were his biological parents . sam : okay . so , if jerome is my father , that would make , um , lucas my ... alexis : half . sam : ... half brother , and then carly would be my -- alexis : not related . you 're not -- relax . it 's good . yeah . sam : okay , you 're right . you 're right . we would n't be related because there 's no biological relation between those two , so carly and i are n't related on any level . thank god . oh , thank god . alexis : yeah . and she said the same thing , actually . sam : well , what do you mean , she said the same thing ? you told carly about this ? alexis : [ sighs ] i had to because i could n't very well go up to this man who i had n't seen since he was a teenager , and i did n't know if lucas knew about his biological parents , so i talked to carly and carly talked to bobbie and bobbie talked to lucas , and he agreed to cooperate . sam : okay . okay , mom . okay . all right . i understand . you know what ? i kind of basically did the same thing . i - i went and i got those dna tests when -- when i was pregnant with jason 's baby and then basically blindsided him , so i am in absolutely no position to criticize . alexis : well , that 's very generous of you , honey . thank you . sam : okay . so , what do we do now ? alexis : truthfully , i want to find out if my hunch is correct ... for closure -- you know , that sort of thing . how about you ? [ scene_break ] sonny : if julian jerome is alive , where the hell is he ? shawn : lying low . after all , he 's got his sister to run interference . sonny : well , he 'd have to be careful making contact , 'cause anybody sees her with him , and , you know , it could give him away . shawn : no one is careful all the time . sonny : so , ava is the answer . she can , uh , you know , lead us right to julian . did n't you tell me she was buying art for that new guy , derek wells ? [ scene_break ] derek : was it something i said ? ava : i do n't know . i 'm -- i 'm hoping that i misunderstood . are you involved with carly jacks ? are you , as you just said , franco 's rival for that woman 's affections ? derek : sure . why not ? ava : well , for one thing , carly has made it perfectly clear that she 's out to get me ! derek : well , you should try harder to get along with people . ava : that woman has been hostile since the day we met , and it 's only gotten worse since i 've b - become involved with morgan . derek : yeah , uh , speaking of which , you , uh , claim it works to our advantage for you to be involved with sonny 's son . why should n't i get involved with sonny 's ex ? i mean , i 'm sure she knows a hell of a lot more about his business and , uh , his tactics than your little boy toy . ava : whatever you do with carly , it 's your business . just be careful . derek : are n't i always ? [ scene_break ] carly : you 're not sleeping with diane ? franco : never have . probably never will . carly : but i saw you two at my restaurant . you could n't keep your hands off each other . franco : i know that that 's how it looked , but , actually -- carly : no , and then you said that she was the one in your room the night of your birthday . franco : [ chuckling ] carly . carly : and diane did n't deny it . she did n't deny it . franco : well , hold on a second . if you would let me finish -- carly : i saw you shove her in your room the other night . franco : carly ! i -- that was not diane . okay . carly : [ scoffs ] franco : hold on . carly : [ chuckles ] franco : i 'm telling you the truth here . i know how this looks . hey . there 's absolutely nothing going on between me and diane miller . [ door opens ] diane : franco ? i need you now . i 'm sorry . i did n't know you had company . carly : oh , do n't worry . there is nothing going on between me and your boyfriend . he is all yours . franco : what ? no . i -- carly : i do n't want to hear it . i do n't want to hear it ! it 's your turn to play florence nightingale . he 's all yours . diane : oh . yay . [ scene_break ] sam : no . i mean , it makes me a little sad . if julian jerome was my father and this test proves that he was a match , that means that i 'm never gon na get to know my father and danny is never gon na get to know his grandfather . but i do n't know . i - i do n't know , mom . maybe that 's all a good thing , considering who he was . alexis : well , if it 's true that julian jerome was the boy that i was with that night , it proves my unerring instinct for bad romantic relationships and unsuitable men go way back to high school . sam : that -- [ chuckles ] i guess on the plus side , if julian had a son , that means i have a half brother and danny has an uncle . alexis : there 's that . sam : there is that . okay . i say let 's do it . [ scene_break ] kiki : this is all my fault . michael : no , it 's not . kiki : no , it is . i knew the way i felt about you from the second we kissed . i did n't want to admit it to myself , but i - i felt something for you that i never felt for morgan . michael : look , you tried to do the right thing . we both did . kiki : the right thing would have been for me to go to morgan and tell him , `` i 'm sorry , but i feel -- i feel for your brother , and it has changed the way that i feel about you . `` michael : what , you think morgan would have accepted that ? kiki : i do n't know . i - i did n't want to hurt him . so , yeah -- so i told him exactly what he wanted to hear , and it ended up hurting him worse . michael : all right , look . if you 're gon na blame yourself , you 're gon na have to blame me , too . kiki : oh , i do blame you ... because if you had n't been so perfect and made me feel the way that i feel , everything would have been a lot easier . michael : i - i 'm sorry morgan 's hurt , but i 'm not -- i 'm not -- i 'm not sorry we 're together . kiki : i know . me , neither . michael : look , i hate to ask this , and i - i know it 's -- it 's -- it 's , well , disgusting and kind of crazy , but wh - why -- why do you think your mom is with morgan ? i mean , it 's obvious that he 's sleeping with her to -- to hurt you , but why -- why is she going along with it ? kiki : are you asking if my mother has an agenda ? because the answer is yes . my mother always has an agenda . michael : do you think morgan 's in trouble ? kiki : understatement . i think that morgan could be getting into something that 's way over his head . [ scene_break ] ava : diane still here ? morgan : no , she left a while ago . ava : are you okay ? morgan : yeah , i 'm fine . ava : okay .

[ scene_break ] derek : ms. jacks . or sh -- actually , i 've been meaning to ask you this -- is it , uh , `` corinthos - jacks `` ? carly : just `` jacks . `` but i 'll make it easy . call me `` carly . `` derek : [ sighs ] carly . carly : so , is it too late to take you up on your lunch invitation ?

[ door opens , slams ] lucas : god , i 'm so sorry . carly : sorry i 'm late . i had a run - in with sonny . sonny : if we 're gon na kill franco , we need someone to take the fall . we just have to figure out who . 'cause you know what ? carly can not suspect that i had anything to do with franco 's death . shawn : well , you know , good thing , uh , franco has no shortage of enemies . i 've come up with quite a few candidates who have motive to kill him . michael : what are you doing here ? franco : i work here . what are you doing here ? i thought you and kiki were out of town . michael : yeah , we were . we came back . i have a meeting with the hospital board to discuss a waterfront clinic i want to fund and dedicate in my father 's name . franco : sonny ? michael : no , my biological father , aj quartermaine . franco : weird . what a coincidence . i was just thinking about him . kiki : morgan , why is she in so much pain ? morgan : i do n't know , but we 're not gon na find out if we do n't get her to gh . ava : i know why . i think i 'm going into labor . morgan : what did you just say ? ava : the pains that i 'm -- i 'm having are contractions . it would seem ... i 'm going into labor . madeline : thank you again for letting me stay the night . nathan : yeah , well , i still ca n't believe i agreed . madeline : i can . i raised you to be the man you are -- someone who would never throw a penniless woman into the street . nathan : penniless according to you . madeline : would that it were n't true . nathan : you say nina has control of all the money . now , how am i supposed to believe that , after so many lies ? madeline : i am so sorry . none of this was ever supposed to hurt you . nathan : i called her . i would rather hear this straight from nina . nina : listen , you have to -- you have to understand that i did n't want to lie to you about my condition . it was actually rosalie 's idea . silas : rosalie ? nina : yes , rosalie . i just woke up from a coma . i - i was so confused . i was so confused , and -- and she suggested that -- that i pretend to be in the wheelchair so i could use insurance . silas : by pretending you could n't walk ? nina : exactly . exactly . and -- and rosalie said that you had probably moved on , and -- and if i -- if i wanted you that i would have to reel you in . and i used the wheelchair to do it . [ sighs ] just you -- you understand that , right ? silas : no , i understand that you used the chair to make me sympathetic to you . nina : no . no . that 's -- i mean , i -- that was n't my idea . listen , i argued with rosalie about it . i did n't want to do it . i argued , but you know that she is really , really bossy and tough , and i felt like i had no choice . silas : she is bossy and tough . was it -- was it also rosalie 's idea to pretend that you were broke ? to lie to me about the money ? i mean , you told me that your assets were frozen because of your mother , but we both know you 've been paying people right , left , and center -- travis , rosalie , who knows -- nina : i did n't know what to do ! i ... all i wanted ... was for you to love me ... which is a joke , is n't it , considering everything you 've done to me , you son of a bitch ! morgan : what are you talking about ? you ca n't be going into labor . it 's too soon . ava : i 'm well aware . but my due date is beside the point . i was given the wrong medication . kiki : what -- so the medicine that you 've been taking wo n't stop the cramps ? [ pills rattle ] ava : i was n't given nifedipine . i was given something called misoprostol . morgan : what the hell does that mean ? what does that mean ? ava : the drug that i thought i was taking was supposed to help with the cramps . the drug i was actually taking -- these pills that i have been popping for the last god knows how many hours are actually an ulcer medication with the unfortunate side effect of inducing labor ! morgan : no , no , no . wait , wait . are you sure that the pills are making you go into labor ? kiki : how did you even get them ? ava : [ scoffs ] the nurse . sabrina santiago . she gave them to me accidentally ... assuming it was an accident . felix : hey , girl . sabrina : hey . felix : long time no see . if it were n't for the bowls in the sink every morning , i 'd think i lost a roommate . sabrina : um , i 've just , uh , been working these crazy shifts . felix : oh , yeah ? 'cause i think you were trying to avoid me . sabrina : why would i do that ? felix : you tell me . i mean , i know gabriel 's been on your mind ever since you found out someone put rafe up to causing the accident . sabrina : sam and patrick have been doing some investigating . felix : any idea who might be responsible ? sabrina : actually , i thought i had an idea , but it turns out i might have been wrong . bobbie : carly , we 're all here , and we 're working overtime , and we 're planning your wedding to franco , and so what were you doing with sonny ? carly : we have children together . we were discussing michael . maxie : oh ! right . michael . um , do you think he will be attending ? carly : he 's my son . of course , he 'll be attending . maxie : right . okay . carly : why ? maxie : i just did n't know if he would want to be there ... after everything franco did to him . michael : why are you thinking about aj ? franco : well , uh , carly and i were just talking about how you did n't have much of a relationship with aj when you were growing up because , you know , she and sonny had seen to that . michael : okay , that 's not exactly how it was , but okay . why bring that up now ? franco : i just think it 's remarkable that you two -- you know , you were so far apart , and yet somehow , you managed to come together . michael : yeah . it took awhile , but it was worth it . franco : and i was hoping that maybe someday ... you and i could be that close . michael : as close as i was with aj ? franco : no . as close as you are with sonny . sonny : it has to be someone the cops would believe would want to eliminate franco , and not just because they hate him , 'cause that 's not enough . shawn : mm - hmm . sonny : they have to be willing to kill . shawn : remember joey limbo ? sonny : joey -- yeah . i mean , uh , anthony zacchara hired him and his crew a couple years ago to take me out . it was an ambush over on , uh , baker street . i was walking into the building . they opened fire . dante grabbed me , put me in a limo . jason took out the rest of them . but when he left , joey was still alive . apparently , franco was watching the whole thing , right ? some kind of death groupie . shawn : [ chuckles ] sonny : strolls by , puts his foot on the guy 's neck . shawn : why ? sonny : please do n't ask me anything about franco . i do n't know what he does or why he does it . shawn : yeah , that 's true . sonny : but you do make a good point . you know what ? um , it could be one of joey 's , uh , you know , crew who wants revenge . we can let them take the blame when we kill franco . felix : who do you think put rafe up to running you off the road ? sabrina : ava jerome . felix : ava jerome ? sabrina : yeah . felix : i mean , true , she 's not a nice person , but why do you think she would go after you or patrick or emma ? sabrina : it 's a long story . the point is , i had good reason to think that -- that she was behind it . felix : and now you do n't ? sabrina : let 's just say i have my doubts . felix : [ sighs ] okay . well , i 'm glad you waited . i mean , i 'd hate to think that you 'd go all `` vengeance is mine `` on some innocent woman . sabrina : the thing is , i already did . kiki : i do n't understand . why would sabrina give you the wrong pills on purpose ? ava : [ sighs ] santiago lost her baby after she went into premature labor . i think ... she might have resented this little one . morgan : okay , well , we -- we have to -- we have to do something right now . kiki : mom , if these pills are causing you to go into labor , we need to get you to the hospital right now . nina : after everything i did -- after everything i did to get you back , and you have -- you have the gall to question my loyalty ? ! my loyalty ? ! you 're sleeping with ava jerome . i put you through medical school ! i did that . do n't roll your eyes at me ! i 'm talking now ! [ sighs ] i was pregnant with our baby . [ sobs ] [ voice breaking ] with our little baby . i was pregnant . ohh , i was so happy . and then my mom takes those pictures , and she stuffs them in my face -- those pictures of you and ava . [ sighs ] and if that was n't enough , she takes a needle , and she sticks a needle into me , and she puts me in a coma , and where were you , silas ? where were you ? you left me stranded for 20 years . silas : i tried to see you a thousand times . your family had to go to court to keep me away . nina : oh , please . they gave you the out that you wanted . 20 years -- 20 years . i ca n't -- then -- and then i woke up , and where were you ? i tried to find you , and you were nowhere . you were nowhere , and then i came to port charles looking for you , and , oh , yeah , you were with sam . you were with your girlfriend , sam . [ sighs ] and then i came down here to see you , and you were n't at my bedside . you were escorting sam to some party . silas : what are you talking about ? what party ? nina : my cousin britt 's party -- her engagement party . silas : the engagement party ? that was the night that , uh -- nina : that i trashed your apartment . you thought it was my mom . silas : it was you . nathan : if i believed you , then that would mean that nina has been lying to me all along . madeline : yes . i 'm sorry . nathan : she says she 's penniless -- that the assets are frozen because of your trial . what , do you think that 's an act , an excuse for her to move in with silas ? madeline : i know this is difficult , but i am telling you the truth . nathan : like when you told me she was dead ? madeline : there were reasons for that . nathan : i 'm sure there were . just like i 'm sure that there are reasons for you to lie to me now . the only way for me to get the truth is to talk to nina , and she 's not picking up her phone , so i have to go to her . madeline : wait , wait , wait . before you go ... there are some things you need to know about your sister . michael : so , you think that you and i are gon na have the same kind of relationship i have with my father ? franco : it 's just a dream . it 's an impossible dream , i realize . look , i - i know what sonny means to you , and i know what you mean to sonny . believe me -- after everything he 's done for you . michael : it 's a long list . franco : well , yeah . i 'm sure . but i 'm referring to aj murdering a woman that he loved , and he chose to not retaliate because he knew what it would do to you . think about that . think about the enormous will required to not retaliate . i mean , sonny loves you so much that he was able to hold back from hurting aj when aj had caused him immeasurable pain . michael : is there a point to you bringing this up ? franco : i could never be that guy . if someone ever hurt me , i sure as hell would hurt them back . carly : how many times do i have to say this ? franco 's not responsible for what happened to michael in prison . in fact , he dove into the harbor and saved his life . maxie : wow . what a hero . no wonder you were willing to forgive him for everything . carly : who the hell are you to judge ? you slept with franco long before he had that tumor removed . maxie : okay , well , at least i could admit that franco was manipulating me , that he was dangerous and creepy . i did n't try to convince myself i could save him . i have to believe that 's what you 're trying to do . you 're the person that 's gon na turn franco 's life around , prove that he 's worthwhile , when half of this town despises him . carly : half of this town ? who , maxie ? give me a list of names ! bobbie : stop ! this is hardly productive . carly : i 'm not gon na stand here while maxie insults my fiancé . bobbie : honey . maxie was kind enough to put aside her misgivings about franco to come over here to plan your wedding , so why do n't we let her do that , okay ? carly : i 'm sorry . it 's just getting old , you know , hearing all this bad stuff about franco , when i know how hard he 's trying . maxie : i 'm sorry i upset you . lucas : okay . [ claps hands ] great . now that we 've declared a cease - fire , you 'll be happy to know , sis , that we have made some very good progress . we are almost done with the seating chart , and we 're working on a color scheme . bobbie : oh , and wait till you see the bridesmaids ' dresses . ohh ! as a matter of fact , josslyn is trying hers on as we speak . carly : ooh ! bobbie : josslyn ! honey , come on down . your mom 's home . show her your dress . carly : i ca n't wait to see her wedding outfit . [ chuckles ] i ca n't wait . lucas : [ whistles ] josslyn : okay . i 'm here . ta - da ! josslyn : what do you think ? carly : okay , i - i know that franco wants to get married on halloween , but i specifically said no costumes . i do n't want my wedding looking like `` let 's make a deal . `` maxie : yes , i understood that . that is not what i picked out for her to wear . lucas : nope , it 's not . she went rogue . carly : care to explain yourself ? josslyn : with pleasure . i will not be wearing the dress maxie picked on halloween because on halloween , i 'm going trick - or - treating like every other kid . what i will not be doing on halloween is attending that joke of a wedding . franco : look , i - i know it 's just wishful thinking , right ? you and i are never really gon na be as close as you are with sonny . it 's just that , you know , with my wedding coming up -- i mean , it 's right around the corner . and carly 's already made so many allowances for me . you know , she -- i did n't buy her a ring . i did n't . i could n't afford it . i did get her a necklace . she said it was the most beautiful thing . and believe me , she 's worn that necklace every day since . michael : are you asking me to give you money for a ring ? franco : no , no , no , michael . i 'm asking you to be my best man . shawn : i 'll put out some feelers , find any of limbo 's associates who still have a grudge against franco . sonny : most of joey 's crew is gone . shawn : well , what about zaccharas ? sonny : anthony 's dead , and as much as i 'd love to pin it on johnny , he 's in pentonville . shawn : well , he 's still got reach , and he used to date carly . that 's motive right there . sonny : that is the problem , because carly still has a soft spot for him , and he -- he 's gon na convince her that he was in the clear . shawn : no limbo crew and no zaccharas . sonny : we need somebody else to take the fall for franco 's death , and the sooner , the better . that way , i can stop worrying that franco 's gon na tell michael that i shot aj . ava : i ca n't step one foot outside that door because s -- kiki : mom . ava : [ gasping ] sonny will find me . kiki : mom , are you okay ? ava : yeah . kiki : he wo n't find you , okay ? he does n't even know that you 're here . ava : i know he 's got people at the hospital watching at the h - hospital . if i show up there , i 'm a sitting duck . morgan : all right , i - i know it 's a risk , but i do n't think we have another choice , ava . ava : no , i think -- i appreciate that you -- you caring about me . i do . but i think we should just wait . you know , i 'm aware that i have been taking the wrong medication . i 'm just not gon na take any more of it , obviously , and the p -- the pain should go away . morgan : we do n't know that . ava : i 'm just gon na relax , you know , and -- and ride it out . i think that 's best . kiki : mom , if you wo n't let us take you to the hospital , at least let us call your doctor . ava : no , dr. westbourne is n't gon na prescribe anything unless i go to the hospital . morgan : no , no , no , no . what she said is she could n't unless she saw you , so maybe she can come to us . ava : absolutely not . morgan : she 's your doctor . she 's not gon na say anything . ava : she wo n't have to . sonny knows that she 's my doctor . i 'm sure he 's having her followed . morgan : okay . i get that my dad is a threat , but you 've been taking the wrong meds , and you seem to be having contractions , so if britt ca n't see you , then you need to see another doctor . kiki : what about my dad ? silas : you trashed my apartment ? nina : i trashed your apartment , and i enjoyed every -- every second of it . you 're lucky i did n't take the crowbar to your head . silas : really ? nina : yeah , really . it 's what you deserve . silas : hmm . nina : you -- you and ava jerome and my mom and kiki -- kiki -- all of you who screwed me over . silas : so , that 's it , nina . that 's your list . madeline : your sister was a troubled soul long before silas came along . nathan : i do n't believe you . madeline : [ sighs ] you do n't want to believe me . you want to go on loving the nina you thought you knew , but it 's -- it 's time you heard the truth . nathan : do you even know the meaning of that word ? madeline : look , she had a good relationship with her father . she was the apple of his eye , but she worked it for all it was worth . i could see that this created problems , and he just turned a blind eye , and -- and she ended up being more spoiled than ever . nathan : so she was spoiled . lots of rich kids are spoiled . that does n't prove anything . madeline : every time i tried to impart discipline or set rules , she would rebel . she had these tremendous mood swings , and she got so angry whenever she did n't get her way . nathan : so she was mad . so what ? madeline : [ sighs ] you 're not really listening to me . it was n't just that she was a spoiled child . she was irrational . she was -- she was even occasionally violent . nathan : what do you mean nina 's violent ? madeline : her behavior was becoming extreme , and when i tried to tell her she should see a psychiatrist , she pushed me down a flight of stairs . nathan : i do n't remember any of this . madeline : you were too young . some of it happened before you were even born . nathan : no , no , my memories of nina are clear . i have never seen her do anything even remotely like what you describe . madeline : well , she did n't exhibit this kind of behavior to you . you were her baby brother . she adored you . she would have done nothing to harm you . nathan : no , this is -- this is crazy . no . madeline : nina was a wild card . there was no predicting her behavior . i could n't sit idly by . i - i thought that it was just a matter of time before something truly awful happened . nathan : what are you implying ? what did you -- what did you think nina was gon na do ? madeline : i could n't risk finding out , so i took steps to have her committed . and that 's when she ran off and married silas . nina : i 'm sorry . to what list are you referring ? silas : [ scoffs ] franco told me you were carrying around a little piece of paper with a list of names on it -- my name , ava 's , kiki 's . told him something about you were trying to keep track of people 's names , but after your , uh , you know , little speech here , i seriously doubt you forgot my name . and why would you have your mother 's name with it crossed off ? oh , that 's right , because madeline 's already in a prison cell . nina : who cares about what franco thinks he saw ? silas : i walked in here last -- last week or so , and -- and you were talking about kiki and her name being on a list , and you told me it was a christmas list . nina : i do n't care about what happened in the past . silas : obviously , this little list has a lot more meaning to it , does n't it , nina ? what are you up to now ? ava : silas ? morgan : is n't he a cancer doctor ? kiki : yes , that 's his specialty , but every doctor has to go through the rotations in med school . i know for a fact that he 's delivered babies . he 's a brilliant doctor . ava : who happens to hate me . kiki : mom , he took an oath . he 's an honorable man . he would never cause any harm to you or the baby . ava : i 'm not talking about doing no harm . i 'm talking about speaking no evil . we can not be sure that he wo n't talk . kiki : i 'm sure he wo n't . no matter how he feels towards you , i 'm his daughter . he loves me , okay ? he would not tell if i asked him not to . morgan : kiki 's right , okay ? we do n't have another choice . kiki : mom , please . look at me . we need to call silas . felix : you gave ava misoprostol ? sabrina : i know . i know it was a terrible thing to do . felix : it was more than terrible , sabrina . do you know what misoprostol could do -- sabrina : of course i know what it could do . that 's why i gave it to her . i wanted her to go through what i went through . felix : oh , my god . we got to stop this . sabrina : i already did . i spoke to ava 's friend about it . i - i told her that i gave ava the wrong medication and what the possible side effects could be . felix : okay , at least that 's a start . sabrina : i did n't exactly confess to what i did , though . i lied . i lied , and i said that it was an accident . felix : at least ava knows not to take the pills . carly : josslyn , we talked about this . josslyn : we did n't talk about anything . you informed me that you were marrying franco , but i did n't get to say what i wanted . carly : because you do n't get a say -- not in this situation . only i get a say , and you have to live with it . josslyn : i do n't see why , when this person 's gon na be my stepfather . if you have to get married , just remarry daddy . bobbie : i was always fond of jax . lucas : yeah , hands down , best brother - in - law ever . maxie : i bet he 'd fly you and joss to fiji for a family meeting . carly : i get to decide who i marry , not you , josslyn , or anyone else . josslyn : it 's not fair ! i do n't want a stepfather ! carly : okay , well , i 'm sorry . you 're getting one whether you like it or not . josslyn : if you insist . but i do n't want it to be franco . carly : okay . who would you prefer ? josslyn : stephen king , victor cassadine . i 'd even take uncle sonny . shawn : we 'll find someone to pin this on . no shortage of people who hate franco -- even maxie jones . sonny : shawn , you did n't just suggest maxie jones , did you ? shawn : no , no . i 'm not saying we pin a murder on her . i 'm just pointing out the fact how many people would n't mind seeing franco dead . sonny : okay , the person we frame for franco 's death has to be someone who deserves to take the fall -- someone we do n't care goes down for the murder . michael : you want me to be your best man ? franco : just hear me out . i know it sounds a little crazy at first . michael : i do n't picture it getting any saner . why do n't you have your father stand up for you ? franco : well , i - i could , but i would n't do that to carly . michael : right . i know she 's not scott 's biggest fan , but he is dating my grandmother . franco : it 's not scott . it 's -- it 's what he represents . michael : the da 's office ? franco : scott is my father , and my mother is ... michael : heather . franco : exactly . and if scott were to stand up for me , then that would serve as a reminder to carly everything that heather put her through , and the last thing that i want for my bride is for her to be uncomfortable on her wedding day . but it would be great if you were my best man . think about it . think about how great that would be for carly . michael : all right , just so we 're clear on what you 're asking , franco , i was 17 , and i was sent to prison for manslaughter . you visited an inmate named carter . you showed him a picture of me , and you told him to mess with me and make sure jason knew about it . it turns out that was just a mind game . you actually wanted carter to protect me , but , uh ... carter raped me . so , what -- i 'm supposed to just forget about all that and serve as your best man while you marry my mother ? franco : i realize this might be difficult for you . michael : you think ? franco : it was really difficult for me when sonny made a pass at carly . no , i - i know it 's not the same thing at all , but ... that was very painful for me . i found that very upsetting . but i was able to take my feelings and put them aside , and i was hoping , michael , that maybe you could put some of your feelings aside . just think for a minute how happy it would make your mother if you were able , somehow , to endorse us as a couple . you 'd be giving your mom the greatest gift of all . do n't you want to give your mom a great gift ? michael : [ sighs ] okay . franco : okay ? michael : okay , but i 'm only doing this for my mom -- not because of you . franco : i do n't care why you 're doing it . that 's great . i 'm so happy . wow . i got a meeting . i got to go hand - deliver our wedding invitations , so i 'll get out of your hair -- your really incredible hair . i just ca n't thank you enough . michael : yeah . franco : this means a lot to me . thank you . michael : sure . franco : i 'll see you , uh , at the altar . no , i 'll see you on halloween . maxie : uh , you know , josslyn , i spent a lot of time picking out that dress , and i would at least like to see it . lucas : yeah , let 's have a fashion show with my favorite little supermodel , miss josslyn jacks . josslyn : sorry , not gon na work . maxie : i bet we could work this corn theme into your dress . josslyn : no way i 'm wearing that dress ! lucas : oh , we got you . maxie : let 's go . lucas : let 's go . josslyn : i still think you 're marrying the wrong man ! lucas : either way , have you ever heard of beggars ' night ? bobbie : maxie and lucas are gon na work their magic on josslyn . honey , i do hope that you are done with sonny . shawn : okay , so here 's our problem -- most of the people franco hurt are people you love . you know , dante , lulu , sam , michael . sonny : carly . she wo n't admit it . shawn : or even if we go outside that circle to someone like , you know , maxie jones or spinelli , i mean , they 're innocent . we ca n't pin this on them . sonny : no , but you just gave me an idea . i know somebody who would take the fall for this , and it 's definitely no loved one of mine . kiki : the hospital said that silas went home a long time ago . i do n't know why he 's not picking up his phone . morgan : okay , well , what do we do now ? kiki : you stay with my mom . i 'm gon na find my dad . [ door opens ] madeline : when nina first brought silas around , you can imagine -- here he was , this -- this threadbare , penniless student . we all thought he just was after her for her money . and she manipulated the situation . she convinced silas that we did n't want to have anything to do with him . nathan : well , was n't that basically the truth ? madeline : no , that was the manipulation . she hid her erratic behavior , and there was no one there to tell him any different . he never knew her true nature . he still does n't . nathan : [ sighs ] i do n't know what to say . madeline : it 's a lot to absorb , i know . but i assure you -- i 'm telling you the truth about nina . nathan : i appreciate you telling me your side of the story , but it 's only half . to get the other half , i have to talk to nina . i have to find her . silas : [ sighs ] hey , look , i know how much you 've been through . and you 're right -- it is n't fair . i 'll do whatever it takes to make things right . nina : you will ? silas : you 've been hurt . but , you know ... i ca n't do it on my own . i - i think -- well , i think we need to talk to someone . nina : ugh . a shrink ? seriously ? a shrink ? why does everybody in this town think that i need to see that shrink kevin collins ? silas : [ sighs ] who told you to see him ? nina : my cousin britt . she said i was in menopause . it 's ridiculous . [ voice breaking ] i am perfectly capable of giving you a baby . right ? silas : absolutely . nina : yeah . silas : i know you can . you -- you just need a little time . nina : [ sniffles ] silas : but , you know , maybe your cousin 's right . maybe -- maybe it 'd be good to talk to someone , try to -- try to figure all this out , and you 're not alone . i 'll go with you . so , what do you say ? let 's go talk to someone -- see if we ca n't get you a little help , okay ? come on . nina : if i were you , i 'd let go of my arm right now . sabrina : [ sighs ] i ca n't believe i did something like this . felix : [ sighs ] you 're still grieving . you obviously were n't thinking clearly . sabrina : [ scoffs ] yeah , no kidding . felix : this is what i was afraid of -- why i was telling you you should stay out of investigating the accident . sabrina : well , if only i 'd listened . now ava could go into premature labor , and it 's all my fault . felix : well , there 's nothing you can do about it now . and , hey , you put a stop to it . no harm done . sabrina : i put a stop to it , but who knows how many pills ava took before i did ? morgan : hey . ava : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] that 's heavenly . morgan : just hang on , okay ? kiki 's coming . everything 's gon na be all right . ava : [ exhales deeply ] kiki : silas ? da -- dad , are you he -- madeline : james , it 's your mother . [ sighs ] i - i just wanted to warn you in case you -- you do find nina . please be careful . you do n't realize how dangerous she is . god help me . i 'm afraid of her . and the last thing in the world i want to happen is for you to become the target of nina 's wrath . [ knock on door ] [ footsteps approaching ] carly : well , that was grueling . bobbie : mm . carly : thank you . bobbie : i believe it 's what 's commonly referred to as life with a daughter . carly : [ chuckles ] bobbie : [ chuckles ] trust me . i have a little experience with this . carly : oh . you trying to tell me that it 's karma ? bobbie : [ chuckling ] no . i 'm -- i 'm merely pointing out that , when you 're dealing with a girl as headstrong as josslyn , you might want to pick your battles . carly : oh , yeah . i will try to remember that . bobbie : so , you did n't say much about the , um , run - in with , uh , sonny . is there anything you want to talk about ? carly : no , it was just the usual . bobbie : honey . if you decide that you do n't really want to go through with this wedding to franco , it 's not too late to change your mind . guard : have a seat . i 'll be right back with your visitor . michael : [ sighs ] oh , man . sonny : i do n't know why i did n't think of this before . it 's perfect . someone -- right ? -- easy to pin the murder on -- someone who definitely hates franco . shawn : who ? sonny : heather webber . [ next_on ] bobbie : ( to carly ) it 's not too late to change your mind . sonny : ( to shawn ) no one hates franco more than his own mother . franco : ( to heather ) long time no see . sabrina : ( to nathan ) can i speak to you ? ava : ( to morgan ) why is n't kiki back with silas yet ? kiki : silas ? can you hear me ? dad ? nina : ( screaming at madeline while attacking her ) repent ! repent !

jordan : thank you for coming back . anna : well , i must say , it 's interesting seeing this room from the other side . jordan : look , first of all , this is not interrogation . anna : is n't it ? jordan : i 'm just wanting to finish our conversation . okay ? and while i 'm waiting for confirmation , i 'm operating under the assumption that the body that we found in the harbor is carlos rivera . and i need to know how it ended up there . anna : so , what ? you think that i have an answer ? jordan : did you have anything to do with carlos rivera 's murder ? [ cell phone rings ] paul : da hornsby . thanks for the quick response . they 're sending rivera 's autopsy results right up . [ door opens ] [ scene_break ] sabrina : just does n't feel real , carlos . how could you truly be gone ? [ knock on door ] sabrina : [ sighs ] [ sniffles , clears throat ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : patrick . patrick : hey . nikolas : hey . um , listen , how 's -- how 's hayden ? she improving ? do you really think that her memory will come back ? patrick : it certainly should in time . nikolas : but can you say that with certainty ? i 'm sorry , please -- hayden has no one else but me . i just want to make sure i 'm doing everything i can for her . patrick : i would n't worry too much about it , nikolas . from everything i can see , her memory should come back , and she should make a full recovery . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i think every word that comes out of your mouth is a lie . hayden : hm . you know , elizabeth , if i wanted your professional opinion , i 'd hand you a bedpan . elizabeth : you know , it 's kind of funny that your injuries have healed , yet you still do n't remember anything . i mean , i guess that happens , but then when you 're told that your best shot at getting your memory back is to see a psychiatrist , and you do n't want to go ? hayden : i do want to go . just not right this second . elizabeth : knock it off , hayden . hayden : it 's miss barnes . elizabeth : oh , `` miss barnes . `` excuse me , miss barnes . tell me the truth . you 're faking your memory loss , are n't you ? hayden : [ scoffs ] oh , my god . this again ? you and your fiancé are like dogs with a bone , insisting i know this mysterious secret . and maybe i did at some point . but i obviously do n't anymore . elizabeth : not so obvious to me . hayden : what will it take to get you guys off my back ? is this actually happening right now ? elizabeth : you can play the victim all you want ... hayden : i 'm not playing anything . elizabeth : ... but you came to this town with an agenda -- to make jake 's life and mine a living hell . and after you 're exposed as a fake and a fraud , you sought out jake , insisting you knew who he was . so tell me the truth . you need to own up to it right now . [ scene_break ] spinelli : ah , seek and ye shall find . and , eureka , i have found it ! jason : found what ? spinelli : okay , it appears that last winter , prince cassadine was very interested in your dna . sam : interested how ? spinelli : there 's a correspondence between nikolas and a private lab here in port charles . jason : dated when ? spinelli : uh , let 's see -- late february . it 's a notification that test results were in . sam : wait . dna test ? spinelli : yeah , affirmative . jason : nikolas was comparing my dna to somebody else 's ? spinelli : yes , he was . jason : whose ? spinelli : there are no further details in the e - mails . sam : nothing ? spinelli : no . the identity of the dna in question , at least for the moment , remains a mystery . sam : okay , well , can you check some other e - mails ? maybe the results are in them . jason : he would n't use another e - mail . not with sensitive information like this . spinelli : jake is correct . there is no further electronic correspondence between nikolas and the lab . jason : probably picked up the results in person . sam : okay , well , let 's look for another clue . when was the e - mail dated ? spinelli : uh , february 27 , 2015 . but nikolas made the inquiry a week prior . sam : okay . late february . what happened in february ? jason : the bomb planted on the haunted star , that 's what . that 's when everyone , including myself , found out that i was working for helena . spinelli : an eventful month , indeed . jason : yeah , but none of that tells us whose dna nikolas would have been comparing mine with . spinelli : i must admit , i 'm unsure how to proceed . there 's no way to learn the test results without getting them from the lab . jason : hmm . sam : well , then let 's do it . spinelli : how ? sam : the jackal , the assassin of the internet , the ruler of all cyberspace , has to ask ? we 're gon na hack into the lab 's computer . [ scene_break ] hayden : how insecure are you ? elizabeth : excuse me ? hayden : you have so little faith in your relationship with jake , you 're afraid someone 's going to swoop in and destroy it ? elizabeth : just answer the damn question . what do you know about jake ? hayden : whatever this secret is , however horrible it may be , i know nothing about it . so get off my back . elizabeth : no . i do n't think so . hayden : oh , no . she 's blocking the door . what do i do ? elizabeth : do you think this is funny ? hayden : a little bit , yeah . elizabeth : 'cause i 'm not laughing . patrick : everything all right in here ? nikolas : yeah . what 's going on ? hayden : actually , i 'm not feeling very well . i have a terrible headache . nikolas : go on , sit down . hayden : [ sighs ] thanks . patrick : what did we just walk in on ? elizabeth : ask hayden . hayden : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] sabrina : they 're beautiful . thank you . michael : look , i know how upset you 've been over carlos . i just wanted to bring you a little something to make you smile . sabrina : aw , you do that all on your own , you know . [ chuckles ] michael : so , how are you doing ? sabrina : i 'm okay . you know , just still in shock . i 've known carlos for such a long time . i guess the thought of never seeing him again is ... it 's just kind of hard to wrap my head around . michael : is that all that 's bothering you ? i mean , not that losing somebody you care about is n't enough . it just -- it seems like you 're preoccupied a little bit . or am i wrong ? [ knock on door ] michael : busy place . sabrina : i have no idea who that is . michael : another admirer ? sabrina : [ clears throat , laughs ] yeah , right . michael : as long as i 'm the only one who comes bearing flowers , i 'm all right . [ scene_break ] paul : okay . thanks . jordan : well , that was fast . paul : well , what can i say ? it seems as though everyone wants to please the new da . jordan : so what did the coroner say ? was he able to id the body ? paul : the dental records confirms it was carlos rivera . multiple gunshot wounds to the chest . jordan : how about the time of death ? paul : huh ? i 'm getting there . according to the me -- anna : before you go any further -- paul : the body had been decomposing for about two weeks , putting the time of the murder shortly after carlos was named as sonny 's shooter . take a look yourself . jordan : yeah . time of death , approximately two weeks ago . paul : right after michael quartermaine / corinthos informed us that carlos had shot his father . carlos : [ echoing ] no ! [ knock on door ] jordan : come in . officer : you have a call , commissioner . jordan : okay . i will be right there . thank you . appreciate you coming in . anna : what , that 's it ? we 're done ? jordan : yeah . based on the coroner 's report , yeah , of course . our focus needs to be on sonny 's organization from here on out . excuse me . [ door opens , closes ] paul : of course , while the commissioner has come up with a rather logical conclusion , just because carlos was shot two weeks ago does n't necessarily mean he was done in by one of sonny 's crew . anna : no ? paul : it 's possible there 's an entirely different motive . like , say , avenging duke lavery 's murder . possibly the delay in taking revenge was the killer 's cover . anna : is this about what sloane told you ? paul : no . why should i listen to anything sloane has to say ? especially as it pertains to you . it was sour grapes , right ? because you did n't return his affections . anna : that 's right . if you 'll excuse me . paul : of course . after you . [ scene_break ] spinelli : you wish me to hack into the lab 's database ? sam : yeah . spinelli : well , last i checked , that action is highly illegal . sam : since when has that ever stopped you ? spinelli : since i 'm the father of a bright and adorable little girl . avoiding jail time at this juncture is devoutly to be wished . jason : he 's right . i do n't want you to get in trouble because of me . sam : he wo n't . and you only go to prison if you get caught . breaking into some dinky local lab with some third - rate cybersecurity system is not gon na stop the jackal . spinelli : there are also ethics to be considered . i - i want to set a good example for georgie . if she 's to follow in my footsteps , i want them to be respectable ones . sam : okay , well , you 'd be rooting for the underdog , fighting for justice . is n't that something you want to teach your daughter ? spinelli : striving for fairness and equality is most important . sam : okay , so , in doing that , sometimes you have to break the law . spinelli : an `` ends justifies the means `` situation ? sam : so ? [ chuckles ] what do you say ? in the name of justice ? are you in ? [ scene_break ] patrick : so , when did this headache come on ? hayden : a few minutes ago , when elizabeth decided to unload on me . for such a small person , she 's really got some grit . patrick : well , call me crazy , but i would imagine people say the same about you . nikolas : is she all right ? patrick : i do n't think there 's any reason to sound the alarm bells . you 're still recovering . it 's normal to have lingering affects . hayden : but they 'll go away ? patrick : they should . if you want me to prescribe you something for the pain , i can . basically an ibuprofen on steroids , if you like . hayden : no , no , no , no , no . that 's okay . patrick : are you sure ? hayden : yes . the only thing i need is to stay away from drama . this was definitely stress - induced . patrick : if you do n't me asking , what 's going on with you and elizabeth ? hayden : you know , she 's the one with the problem , so i think she 's the one that needs to explain . if you 'd all excuse me , i just want to get home .

[ laughs ] i knew it . this is fantastic . another quartermaine . oh ! my father was thrilled every time he had a new heir . even though it means a battle for stock options . but expanding his legacy was what he lived for . is michael over the moon about this new baby ? sabrina : [ chuckles ] tracy : is michael thrilled about being a father ? sabrina : i have n't told him yet . [ scene_break ] jordan : can i get you anything ? michael : no , i 'm okay . paul : hello , michael . michael : paul . [ door closes ] jordan : so , uh , the reason we brought you in was we confirmed that the body found in the harbor was carlos rivera . and due to the timing of his death , it would seem that whoever shot carlos did so in retaliation for the attack on your father . paul : our sources have informed us that you , in fact , showed up at that last meeting of the five families , which indicates that you know more about your father 's business than you had previously let on . michael : i 'm sorry , is there a question ? jordan : what do you know about carlos rivera 's murder ?

[ clears throat ] hayden : i 'm sorry . you 're right . this just ... sucks . nikolas : i know . hayden : what am i supposed to do ? sit around forever , trying to remember someone else 's secret ? i mean , what kind of life is that ? nikolas : not the one you envisioned , i guess . hayden : i need to do something . become a productive member of society . bottom line , i need a job .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : given any thought as to what you want to do ? hayden : well , it 's kind of tough when i have no idea what my skill set is . what if i do n't even have a skill set ? nikolas : oh , i seriously doubt that . hayden : do you know what i did before ? nikolas : um ... other than pretending to be jake 's wife ? no . hayden : sam insists i was a con woman . do you think that 's true ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] well , let 's just say ... we know you 're very creative . hayden : and duplicitous . nikolas : i like to think of you as `` crafty . `` hayden : [ laughs ] now , there 's a résumé for you . `` crafty little devil seeking work . `` nikolas : absolutely . hayden : my phone will be ringing off the hook . nikolas : there you go . hayden : yeah . even if i found a job i think i 'd be good at , who would hire me ? i have no work history and no memory . nikolas : i would .

[ voice breaking ] it was beautiful , really . but [ clears throat ] it was quite painful . patrick : yeah , you wake up , and they 're in bed beside you . you have breakfast with them . you realize it 's just a mistake . anna : i got a great feeling of relief from it , though , you know ? i really did . and ... in my mind , i 'd put my arms around duke . and then i 'd wake up , and i 'd realize that it was a dream , because , you know , the reality is ... ... you know , he 's gone . patrick : i 'm sorry . anna : i know , because you went through this with robin , did n't you ? patrick : you miss them so much you 'd rather lie awake in the grief . anna : i thought i was over the worst of it . i thought i had really , you know , got on top of it and got control of myself . that 's why i came home , so that i could be with emma , you know , and i could rebuild my life here . but that 's easier said than done , because i do n't have a job , and i do n't have anything to focus on . and my mind is just going into overdrive all the time . patrick : well , then i think it might be a good time to talk to somebody about this . anna : what , do you mean a therapist or something ? oh [ sniffles ] patrick : my colleague , dr. kevin collins , is fantastic . this might work its way out on its own , but , you know , at least he can prescribe you something if need be . anna : yeah , that 's a good idea . i 'll think about it . patrick : hey . what about dinner tonight ? anna : can i just do it another time ? i just ... you know , you just give emma a big kiss from me .

the investigation of the murder of carlos rivera is underway . police commissioner jordan ashford and da paul hornsby lead the investigation and question witnesses and possible suspects . they first call anna and it appears that paul has secretly tampered with evidence to make it look like carlos was shot right about after sonny got shot , in order to cast suspicion upon julian and/or ava for putting him up to shoot sonny , and giving sonny 's team motive to shoot carlos in retaliation . anna right away knows paul has a reason for doing this as he `` implies `` although he does not come out and say , that he knows she killed carlos after he killed duke . this also casts suspicion on sonny 's `` team `` . so , they call michael . he knows nothing about any of it but knows that with carlos dead , it 's very convenient for both julian and ava to get away with murdering his father . he tells them he wo n't discuss it further and immediately contacts morgan to inform him what is going on . meanwhile , sabrina is pregnant with michael 's child and discusses it with tracy who wants to encourage her to leave all the negativity and uncertainty in her past behind her . yet she is still haunted thinking of carlos while shocked and devastated and can not help wondering who murdered him .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : look , i 'm sorry . i should n't have said that , ok ? emily : no , it 's ok . nikolas : i just never considered that courtney would get pregnant . i always thought it would be us . emily : courtney could be carrying jax 's child . nikolas : well , the odds are against it , you know ? emily : the odds were against courtney being pregnant at all . nikolas : i ca n't wrap my mind around this , you know ? years ago , i thought katherine was pregnant , and i was ready to marry her . and that just ended so badly . emily : it was another life . nikolas : but i just -- even then , it was a sign , you know , not to bring another cassadine into this world , because the gene pool 's obviously tainted . emily : have you mentioned this tainted gene pool theory to alexis ? nikolas : no , no , of course not . emily : wise choice . maybe it 's just an excuse , anyway . nikolas : for what ? emily : you obviously do n't want to deal with feeding the baby at 3 : 00 in the morning . nikolas : 3 : 00 in the morning ? you do n't feed a baby at 3 : 00 in the morning . you do ? emily : nikolas , tell me you 're kidding . nikolas : well , do n't they just sleep most of the time ? emily : yeah , 12 hours a day , three or four hours at a time . nikolas : oh , ok . emily : you really had no idea ? nikolas : well , no . the servants did n't mention it to me . nor did my uncle . he was too busy reading -- reading me greek and latin mythology . he left out the childcare part . well , just so you know -- if we were still together , the 3 : 00 a.m. feeding thing would be on you . emily : nikolas , do us both a favor and , i do n't know , do n't talk about what might have been . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what do you think about this cake ? lucky : is it edible ? elizabeth : it 's expensive . but i like the way it 's frosted . lucky : how many layers ? like , eight ? elizabeth : i do n't know . maybe nine . and obviously , our cake would be a lot smaller , but i think gram and i could copy this look . lucky : listen , i can spring for the cake . it wo n't -- it wo n't look like that , but you wo n't have to bake it . elizabeth : why ? gram should be good at this sort of thing . and besides , it 'll be fun . lucky : what , after working a full day at the hospital ? elizabeth : you 're working as hard as i am . lucky : will we be , like , asleep during our own wedding ? elizabeth : i promise to stay awake . at least until we say `` i do . `` and then you can take me straight up to bed . lucky : deal . that dress kind of looks like the cake . in fact , it 's kind of similar . elizabeth : pay no attention . lucky : it 's your dream wedding dress , is n't it ? elizabeth : this dress probably costs at least as much as one year of cameron 's college tuition -- which we have n't even started saving yet . lucky : listen , just forget about the money . tell me about your dream wedding . [ scene_break ] ric : well , you have a reputation for being a reasonable man , mr. ruiz . mr. ruiz : i hope so . ric : you 've given your family strong leadership for many years . mr. ruiz : tell me what you want , mr. lansing . ric : this -- this trouble in port charles -- mr. ruiz : oh -- it 's upsetting to all of us . ric : i 'm sure you realize that it 's being driven by a third party . mr. ruiz : lorenzo alcazar . ric : yeah . he 's pitting your family -- your sons against my brother . he 's trying to make them destroy each other so that he can move in and subsequently take control of port charles . mr. ruiz : it 's a solid strategy , though it 's -- it 's unfortunate for you . ric : mr. ruiz , if lorenzo alcazar succeeds , how long do you think it 's going to take him before he turns his attention to your miami holdings ? with all due respect , mr. ruiz , i believe that my brother and your family can reach a business arrangement that is mutually satisfactory . we can learn to stay out of each other 's way , thereby shut alcazar out of the picture , form an alliance that is mutually beneficial to both of us . mr. ruiz : it 's too late . for me to back out now would show weakness . ric : mr. ruiz , you nearly lost your son to this war . your other son , javier , is risking his life as we speak , as well as my only brother . mr. ruiz : it 's the price for doing business . ric : if we can find a better way to do business -- if we ca n't stop this fighting , one of us will lose someone we love tonight . [ scene_break ] john : if you kill sonny corinthos , i 'll be your alibi . i 'll look the other way . but if you try to set up shop in port charles , my town , you 're the enemy . javier : i offered to work with you . john : no . no , no , no , no -- you asked for permanent police protection in return for a cut of your profits . i said no . this is a one - shot deal , so to speak , javier . you go ahead , you kill sonny corinthos , then you hop up on your horse and get the hell out of my town . javier : do n't make sonny 's mistake . you 're going to need me as a friend . john : i got plenty of friends . man : all hell 's breaking loose on 10 . second man : sonny corinthos booked the entire floor . first man : it sounds like a fight , possibly gunfire . call the cops . john : i 'm john durant . i 'm the district attorney . do n't worry , i 'll handle everything . [ scene_break ] sonny : you ok ? reese : yeah , i 'm fine , but they 're going to come back , you know . sonny : ok , they 're going to want to finish the job . they 're going to come back soon . [ scene_break ] courtney : there are different -- jax : thanks . courtney : levels of forgiveness , you know ? i mean , there 's on the surface , polite . there 's the day - to - day dealing with each other on a world level of forgiveness , which i think we 've reached . jax : what about underneath ? courtney : jax , i think it 's going to take us both some time . i lied , so did you . we deceived each other . i mean -- jax : yeah . courtney : when do you start believing again ? all i 'm saying is that it would be a lot easier for you to adopt a child if you were married . jax : why not just hire another surrogate if all i wanted was a child ? which there 's no denying . but if we 're being honest , you want a child as much as you ever did , too . courtney : yeah , i want a baby . but it 's complicated . jax : well , then let 's simplify it . let 's try to get back to the way we were before . courtney : it 's not going to happen , jax . look , i have had three failed marriages . jax : i certainly hope you 're not going to throw me in there with a.j . and jason . courtney : no , no , never . i just -- i 'm just acknowledging that i 'm not very good at being married . ok ? i have all this baggage which i thought i had put down , or at least had under control when we got married , but i was wrong . you know , as soon as the surrogacy started , my insecurities kicked in with a vengeance . and , i do n't know -- i should have asked for help . i should have told you how i was feeling , but instead i just tried to solve it on my own . does that sound familiar ? because that 's what i do all the time , which is fine and even workable as long as you 're not married but , jax , it is totally unfair to promise to spend your life with someone and -- and then you do n't share it with them . and -- [ courtney sighs ] courtney : god , i 'm sorry . jax : yeah . courtney : i just -- i hurt you , jax , and you hurt me , too . and if you ask me what i want , i just do n't want us to hurt each other again . jax : i do n't want that , either . i 'm not saying that we should , you know , start over . i 'm just -- i 'd like to be around you -- in whatever -- in whatever way that -- that works for you . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i 'm sorry . i should go . emily : no , nikolas , you do n't have to apologize . listen , i probably know better than anyone how strange it is for you to think about courtney carrying your baby . and i want to help , or at least to listen . but there 's just a lot going on here at the moment . nikolas : well , if you 're referring to sonny 's so - called businesses , that 's exactly why i do n't like the idea of you being here . emily : please , do n't , nikolas . we have separate lives now . we can help each other , but we do n't get to comment on each other 's choices . nikolas : it 's a choice of yours to take care of sonny 's kids ? emily : loving them is . trying to help while their mother 's in the hospital is absolutely a choice . nikolas : listen , i 'm sorry . i 'm making you mad , ok ? emily : yeah , you 're starting to , and since this wo n't do either one of us any good , why do n't we just agree to disagree ? you and i can just stick to planning elizabeth and lucky 's surprise wedding and being friends . nikolas : ok . you always were a good friend . emily : ok , well , then as your friend , try to work things out with courtney . because this baby , if it 's yours , is going to change everything . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : this dress would be way too formal for our wedding . lucky : ok , then why do you have this page marked ? elizabeth : i like to dream . does n't mean i need for it to happen . lucky : but what if it could ? what would your dream wedding be ? elizabeth : it 's embarrassing . i do n't want to tell you . lucky : wait a minute . are n't engaged couples supposed to share everything ? elizabeth : ok , god . ok , as long as you understand that it 's just a fantasy . i 'm not hoping for it to come true , ok ? lucky : ok , pure fantasy , no basis in reality . got it . spill it . elizabeth : cinderella . lucky : you mean the fairy tale ? elizabeth : i know i should have gotten over it by now , but i have always wanted to be cinderella -- in a big , sparkling wedding dress , going to the ball , dancing with the man i love . lucky : we danced at a ball . remember ? elizabeth : yeah . the bacchanalia at wyndermere . i remember . of course , we were n't invited , so you talked me into sneaking over to the island and watching the party from the garden . those women were so beautiful in those ball gowns . lucky : you were more beautiful than any of them . elizabeth : lucky , i was wearing jeans . lucky : does n't matter . [ music plays ] lucky : i knew right then that you were the most beautiful girl in the world . elizabeth : now , see , that 's what matters . not a dress or a party . the fact that you love me . and that 's exactly why i do n't need a cinderella wedding . nothing will make me happier than standing in my grandmother 's living room looking into your eyes as you say you 'll be my husband . singer : you and me and you know i 'd cross the stars for you and i think you would go that far there 's nowhere else i 'd rather be [ scene_break ] reese : it 's way too quiet . sonny : yeah . reese : where are the police ? we just shot up the 10th floor of the fanciest hotel in town . do n't you think anybody heard us ? sonny : i booked the whole floor . i booked it so innocent people would n't get hurt . reese : well , what about the people above us or below us ? you do n't think anybody heard what just happened ? sonny : the ruiz family probably has somebody at the cop - shop on their payroll . reese : somebody with enough power to keep the cops from showing up , of course . sonny : probably john durant . reese : durant hates you , but he hates all mobsters . i really do n't see him in bed with the ruiz family . sonny : durant 's main goal is to see me dead . that way , he can run the ruiz family out of town before they get too established . so if he gets rid of me , his hands are clean . reese : and he gets access to carly . sonny : i do n't want him anywhere near carly . reese : he 's probably downstairs in the bar right now gloating . sonny : listen to me . if i do n't make it out of here -- reese : we 're both making it out of here , sonny . sonny : but if i do n't -- if i do n't , i want to make sure carly 's all right . i just need you to go to justus . he 's got it all set up financially . i just want to make sure that if carly never leaves roselawn , then my children can visit her . i know i 'm asking a lot . but i just -- can you promise me that ? reese : i promise . sonny : thank you . reese : the cops should have shown up by now . we 're on our own , sonny . sonny : ok . javier 's people are going to come back with reinforcements . all right ? they 're going to know that we 're barricaded here , that we 're ready to fight back . reese : yeah , even though we 're outnumbered . sonny : ok , we are here like sitting ducks . but there is an option . reese : what ? sonny : we take the fight to them .

[ scene_break ] ric : i appreciate that you wanted to expand your territory , but i also do n't believe that you wanted it to happen this way . mr. ruiz : manny is impulsive . shooting up your brother 's home was rash , unnecessary . ric : yes , well , that 's when the situation did start to escalate . manny 's action forced me into an encounter that none of us wanted . believe me , mr. ruiz , when i say i regret any harm that may have come to your son . mr. ruiz : thank you . ric : a war is about to break out . but you can stop it if you take control of the situation . mr. ruiz : you want me to call off javier ? ric : if you do , i will reason with my brother . we can reach a compromise . but if javier and sonny kill each other , we all stand to lose . is expanding your territory worth losing the life of your son ? mr. ruiz : get me javier . oh . i understand . we 're too late . javier 's already moved against your brother . there 's no stopping this now .

[ reese groans ] reese : just go . [ scene_break ] emily : does it really matter who ran out in front of your car , jax ? if it was carly , she did n't know what she was doing . jax : yeah , because carly was having a nervous breakdown because sonny refused to take her to the doctor . emily : sonny was trying to help carly in the way he felt was best . jax : yeah . sonny was feeding his own ego and destroyed yet another woman who loves him . that 's nothing new . emily : whoever ran out in front of you had no idea that a pregnant woman was in the car . no one meant for elizabeth to lose her baby . jax : it was carly , was n't it ? that 's why you 're trying so hard not to tell me . emily : anyone could 've run out in front of your car , jax . jax : i do n't blame carly . i blame sonny . emily : why blame anyone ? i mean , dwelling on the accident is n't going to bring the baby back . reliving the hurt keeps you stuck in the past , jax . believe me , i know . jax : yeah , i suppose you do . and you 're right -- you know what ? you 're right . there 's no point in fighting with sonny . there 's no point in looking back . emily : you know , it 's natural . everyone does it . but instead of thinking about what might have been , i do n't know -- maybe try to rebuild something good to replace what you lost . jax : what if i want back what i lost ? and i 'm not referring to the baby . i meant courtney . emily : you want to get back together with courtney ? jax : we 've both made mistakes , but i 'm willing to let go of the past , maybe even try again . [ scene_break ] courtney : why would it be wrong ? elizabeth , it 's your wedding . you have every right to ask me not to be there . i mean , we have n't really gotten along since jason and , well , i was part of the whole surrogacy mess , which was awful for you , and as you 've pointed out , nikolas and emily are your best friends , so -- elizabeth : but i am not going to use my wedding to push them together . and as much as i would like to , i can not fix emily 's life nor can i push nikolas to be with emily even though i found my way back to lucky . courtney : but you 're the four musketeers . you have this sort of built - in symmetry . elizabeth : yeah , but that does n't mean that nikolas ca n't bring you to my wedding . you 're in love with him , are n't you ? courtney : more than i thought possible in such a short amount of time . look , i want nikolas to be happy , which is why i am willing to let him go . [ scene_break ] lucky : you are stringing emily and courtney along . it is n't fair to anybody . you have to make a choice . nikolas : you do n't understand , ok ? lucky : no , nikolas , it 's not that complicated . you and emily have a chance to get back together if that 's what you want , and i hope you do , but if you decide to be with courtney , you have to decide . nikolas : look , it 's not just me , ok ? emily and courtney get to choose , as well , and emily already did , remember ? she chose to end our marriage . lucky : ok , just trust me on this one . only a woman in love with you would allow you to dump your problems with courtney on her lap . listen , you have a chance to get back with emily if that 's what you want , but decide . nikolas : look , i realize that it 's unfair to be with someone out of obligation while your heart may be somewhere else and i 'm not saying that that 's me . i 'm just -- i 'm just saying that sometimes it 's unavoidable , that 's all . lucky : would you just forget about duty and honor for once and be true to yourself ? you either want to be with emily or courtney . make a choice .

[ scene_break ] lucky : there 's no reason for me to talk to you about my divorce . ric : well , i just wanted to apologize for what happened at jason 's trial . i know how difficult it must have been when i brought out elizabeth 's affair with jason . lucky : no , ric , you do n't know . ric : no , no , no , i -- i imagine that revelation is the primary reason that you two are divorcing . lucky : you know what ? like i said , i 'm not interested in discussing this with you . ric : i 'm just wondering if you appreciate the irony here , lucky -- that jason was able to take elizabeth away from both of us . it just does n't seem right . lucky : yeah . neither is what you did with elizabeth by putting her on the witness stand . ric : i was n't the one who had an affair with your wife while you were still married to her . lucky : are you just trying to get me to join your war against jason ? ric : never hurts to have an ally . lucky : you 're my boss . i treat you with respect . but what you did with elizabeth by dragging her through the mud in a courtroom -- it was wrong . so no matter what you say , the only person who benefited from this was you . [ door opens and closes ] [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i am so grateful you found this place for me . emily : yeah , i knew you did n't want to stay at audrey 's for too long . elizabeth : i finally feel independent again . emily : yeah ? elizabeth : as opposed to a three - time failure who runs home to gram 's every time she falls flat on her face . emily : are you kidding ? you are not a failure . elizabeth , you get huge points for trying , first of all . most people do n't even do that . you have two great sons . you 're beautiful , you 're dedicated to your work . your life has a world of potential , and it 's just waiting for you to figure out what is next . elizabeth : well , next is settling in , making a routine for myself and the boys so the three of us can start to feel like a family . emily : and what about lucky ? elizabeth : once the mediation is done and there 's a custody agreement , i hope that lucky and i will be able to make things okay for cameron and jake .

[ scene_break ] alan : do n't let logan get to you . tracy : every word out of his mouth is a lie . alan : so logan 's not really worried about lulu ? tracy : yes , he is worried about lulu . she finally came to her senses . she realized that that deal she made with scott was a swindle . so she 's washed her hands of him . i could n't be more thrilled . alan : you do n't look very thrilled . tracy : well -- you 're right . that 's because it 's no fun making an embarrassing mistake and having it pointed out to you by your father . alan : oh , you mean , like when father told you you were going to regret marrying lawrence ashton along with all the rest of your husbands ? tracy : yeah , like that . alan : well , father was right , but you refused to listen . so what makes you think that lulu listened to luke ? i mean , i 'm surprised she did n't run straight back to logan . tracy : she probably needed time to think . i mean , she -- she made scott a promise , and i 'm sure she got herself all psyched up to give logan a second chance , and then she realized . luke : what are you and the undead arguing about ? tracy : nothing . he 's not here . um -- i have something to tell you . luke : what ? tracy : the night that lulu found out that logan was two - timing her , she took off . she hitchhiked . luke : well , that 's not smart . but at least she survived . tracy : well , actually , that was in question for a while . she got picked up by anthony zacchara 's son . luke : anthony zacchara ? tracy : apparently , there is some unrest among the criminal element . he may or may not be moving into town . that was the night his son showed up . luke : does this son have a name ? [ scene_break ] johnny : where 'd you learn how to pick a lock ? lulu : um -- my dad taught me . he figured i should n't know how to hot - wire a car until i learned how to pick a lock . i bet the owners use this place for fishing in the spring and never show up the rest of the year . the fridge is probably stocked , too , so we 'll rest up , and then i 'll think about going with you to canada . johnny : you do n't seem in any hurry to get back to port charles . lulu : well , i 'm not ready to get in the middle of a fight between my dad and logan i mean , the truth is , i 'm not ready to face logan at all . i just need some time away to figure out what i want . [ scene_break ] robin : well , thanks for meeting me . jax : you 're welcome . i 'm glad you called , actually . it 's been a while . robin : i know . thank you . jax : so did you have something specific in mind , or are we just catching up ? robin : a little of both , i guess . so , how are things ? how 's carly ? jax : well , she 's great . [ robin giggles ] jax : but are you really interested in my marriage to carly ? robin : selfishly , yes , i am , so just answer me first and then i 'll explain . jax : okay . well , we 've -- you know , we 've gone through some rough patches . robin : mm - hmm . jax : me being gone , one of them . leticia 's murder . but you know , we 're -- we 're getting through everything . the most important thing is , i 'm crazy in love with carly , and i think she 's a little surprised at how much she loves me . robin : hmm . so no regrets , then ? jax : no . robin : that 's good , that 's good . and how are you liking being a stepdad ? jax : i love it . michael and morgan are great , you know ? they 're -- they 're a riot . easy to love . i love tucking them in at night , reading them a story . you know , i really like being a stepdad . robin : that 's what i wanted to know . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . patrick : hey . carly : so ? what 's the emergency ? [ scene_break ] epiphany : see something of interest ? leyla : sorry . epiphany : one of the first things they teach you in nursing school is to keep your focus . not that you can be entirely to blame for that . nonetheless , you got yourself involved with the man . you need to figure out how to put that away when you 're at work . [ leyla sighs ] leyla : it wo n't be an issue anymore . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't get it . why would robin want to meet jax ? patrick : robin 's decided she wants to have a baby . and she wants your husband to be the father . [ scene_break ] jax : michael swore that he could make us breakfast in bed . of course , morgan rose to the occasion . there was some competition between them that whoever won got sole custody of the video game console for an entire week , so -- robin : ooh . jax : anyway , morgan made us toast . it was slightly burned . really cute with two cubes of butter on each one . robin : oh . jax : and michael -- well , michael came up -- silver tray , covered . perfect eggs benedict . absolutely amazing . robin : wow . jax : too good to be true . did n't realize that ordering room service from the hotel did n't count . [ robin laughs ] jax : but anyway , they both got points for creativity and i bought both of them their own games . so yes , i am spoiling them silly . robin : wow . they must think they have the best stepdad , ever . jax : hmm . no , i 'm the lucky one . [ robin chuckles ] jax : but why are you so interested in my marital bliss , anyway ? robin : oh -- well -- um -- jax : come on . robin : i -- okay . i 've been thinking a lot about being a parent . and -- well , i 've decided that it 's something that i want to do on my own , so i 'm going to take the leap . jax : wow . well , congratulations . robin : thanks . jax : you 'll be great . and i 'll give you any advice that you might need . robin : well , thank you . i -- i appreciate that support , really . um -- but i was kind of hoping you would give me -- um -- something more than your advice . maybe donating some of your dna . ? i would like you to just think -- just think about being my baby 's father . carly : there is no way in hell my husband will be fathering your child . [ robin sighs ] [ music plays ] [ scene_break ] [ emily giggles ] elizabeth : to a job well done . emily : to your future . elizabeth : thank you . diane : hello . well , is n't this cheerful ? elizabeth : hi . [ diane giggles ] elizabeth : how did it go with alexis ? diane : oh , alexis is such a lovely woman . she is so bright . she 's got such excellent taste . naturally , i 'll be tearing her to pieces . we are no closer than before to an agreement , which bodes very well for you . elizabeth : well , i do n't understand . diane : alexis is doing a lot of posturing . but she and lucky have absolutely no room to maneuver , which means that you will be getting everything you deserve . [ scene_break ] alexis : my meeting with diane proved to be unproductive . i should have known that she would take this right to the wall . lucky : that 's what jason pays her for . alexis : i do n't know that we 're going to be able to prove that jason is paying diane to represent elizabeth . what we 're going to do is use jason 's involvement with elizabeth to our benefit . now , his life is surrounded by violence . this presents an ongoing threat to the health and well - being of jake and cameron . lucky : no argument here . alexis : elizabeth allows jason to have contact with jake , so this is giving you the opportunity to file for emergency guardianship . lucky : you want me to take custody away from elizabeth ? alexis : this is a negotiating tactic . if you have emergency guardianship , it puts you in a position of strength when we talk about custody . lucky : this is temporary , right ? alexis : custody will be the first thing that we talk about in mediation . but if jake is living with you , it will undermine diane 's case , and give elizabeth incentive to compromise . lucky : if this is what it takes to protect my son , let 's do it . [ scene_break ] sonny : where are you with johnny zacchara ? okay , please , tell that idiot spinelli that i need something -- [ door opens ] sonny : because i ca n't push for a meeting -- max : luke spencer to see you . sonny : yeah , let him in . we 'll -- we 'll -- we 'll talk about it later . luke : hey . sonny : welcome back . luke : thanks . sonny : can i get you a drink ? luke : not if it 's grape juice . sonny : what can i do for you ? luke : i understand the zaccharas are in town . sonny : yeah , his lawyer , trevor lansing , showed up a few weeks ago . luke : lansing ? sonny : yeah . luke : any relation to ric ? sonny : yeah , his father . luke : well , that 's complicated . sonny : it 's very messy . but i 'm sure you want to know about the zaccharas , so i 'll tell you . they have not made a move . but my kid 's nanny was strangled . i can not tie it to them because , you know , they have n't made any demands . luke : but you think they 're moving in to port chuckles ? sonny : unfortunately , yeah , i do . luke : what about the son ? i think his name is johnny . is he involved in the business ? sonny : he is -- all i know -- he 's very important to his father . luke : well , lulu took off last night . my wife thinks that she 's with that kid . any idea where i can find him ? [ scene_break ] lulu : logan hurt me worse than anybody else has . but i know he regrets it , and it 's not like i 'm perfect . i 've done things that were hurtful and wrong , too . what ? johnny : i did n't say anything . lulu : you think i 'm letting logan off the hook so i can rationalize getting back together with him so i can keep my deal with scott , so i can help my parents . and you 're wondering why i got involved with a guy like logan in the first place . but you do n't know what my life has been like . i mean , yeah , i know . who am i kidding ? it 's completely obvious that i 'm trying to justify what happened so i do n't look like an idiot for letting a guy like logan near me in the first place . say something . johnny : you seem to know all the arguments . man : hands up . you 're trespassing . lulu : oh ! no , do n't kill him ! johnny : why not ? he nearly blew your head off . [ next_on ] carly : go to a sperm bank . tell her you 're not doing this . kate : if you do n't do something , someone 's going to wind up dead . sonny : johnny zacchara is a wild card . nobody 's off - limits . johnny : i can call this self - defense . lulu : do n't ! he did n't hurt me !

patrick 's obvious concern for robin 's whereabouts prompted leyla to break up with him . logan panicked and went to the quartermaines then to lucky when he could not find lulu , who was still running from johnny 's handlers with young zacchara . carly yelled at sonny over her guards , especially max , being too close and for siding with jax . emily helped liz get moved into her new place . diane and alexis are able to think more highly of each other after a meeting , but come no closer to agreement . carly 's next flip out is when she discovers robin wants jax to father her baby . when logan tracks lulu down , she has to intercede between him and johnny .

[ anthony scoffs ] anthony : jason wo n't risk his organization and the lives of everyone in it just to get revenge for sonny , which means sonny has to come to me . and once karpov 's dead , it wo n't be too hard to provoke sonny into moving after jason . ric : unless jason kills sonny to keep what he 's got . anthony : jason believes that peace is more important than power . otherwise , he would have offed sonny a long time ago . ric : yeah , well , i would n't count jason out just yet . anthony : the only person who can kill jason is sonny . and then sonny will die , and the helpless old man in the wheelchair will wind up with everything . mmm . [ scene_break ] sonny : max told me that karpov is planning to leave the country . jason : that 's good . sonny : good ? the son of a bitch went into a church and shot the woman i was going to marry and that 's it ? good ? out of sight , out of mind ? jason : look , you and kate can start the life that you wanted . sonny : while karpov lives -- what , happily ever after on the other side of the planet ? jason : you ca n't touch karpov in russia . sonny : we can do it . right here , right now . help me do it . or i 'm going to have to go to the zaccharas . sonny : anthony came to me after kate was shot , which is pretty ironic . my bitter enemy offers to help when the person i thought was my best friend does n't want to help . jason : what happened to kate was awful . sonny : she almost died ! jason : sonny , i 'm not denying -- sonny : you know she almost died , so you know what ? if i sit back with my hands tied , it 's going to happen again . i ca n't put my family in danger anymore . i have to send a message , you know that . jason : and how does anthony want to help you , exactly ? sonny : he 's an old man . he wants somebody to run the organization , so he offered to put it at my disposal to punish karpov . jason : so you think he 's just going to sign over his power to you ? anthony zacchara ? sonny : he knows that karpov needs to be brought down . he knows that . he needs to be punished for what he did . jason : what 'd you tell him ? sonny : i turned him down . because i thought you were going to help me . but you do n't want to . so i 'm just -- i 'm running out of options here . so , you know , before i go to the zaccharas , i 'm just going to ask you one last time . return my organization to me . [ scene_break ] carly : i 'm sorry . carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry that i implied to jax that you and i were having an affair . i was trying to make him jealous . how stupid is that ? nikolas : no , it 's all right . you still love him , do n't you ? carly : yeah , i ca n't help it . but he 's clearly moved on , so -- nikolas : no , i would n't be so sure about that . carly : are you kidding ? he did n't care at all that i was alone with a shirtless , would - be investor . nikolas : oh , so he pretended . carly : it does n't matter . it does n't matter , because jax and i are over , and i need to get that through my head . so , thank you for not busting me out and making me look stupid . nikolas : that 's okay , that 'd be bad manners anyway . see , you 'll soon find out that i 'm compulsively polite . i am . carly : oh , gosh . well , i 've been warned . thank you . [ nikolas laughs ] nikolas : so , okay , back to business . i assume that 's the real reason you 're here . carly : yes , i came to accept your offer . nikolas : okay . carly : but if you want to bow out now , i totally get it . nikolas : no , no . jax does n't intimidate me . carly : would n't you prefer going after a piece of property where one of the owners is n't trying to sue you blind ? nikolas : okay . i have deep pockets . i can fight jax for as long as necessary . carly : you 're serious ? nikolas : yes , i am . i 'm serious . do n't -- look , do n't laugh at me , but on your way home from the mainland tonight , look at the lights just to the left -- carly : oh , the view . nikolas : seriously , look at the lights just to the left of the pier . that 's the hotel . i want to be able to look at that , and know i own a piece of it . especially now that someone told me that i ca n't have it . i know it 's a big price to pay for personal satisfaction , but believe me , i can afford it . carly : if you 're going to be a ruthless mogul , you need to button your shirt . can i please help you with this ? nikolas : oh , dear god . carly : ha ha . it 's okay . [ scene_break ] robin : with the drug protocol that i 'm on and because my viral load is extremely low , it 's just as safe for me to have a vaginal birth . plus , the recovery time is much quicker . so i will be taking care of our little girl that much faster . patrick : i know , but there would be less blood contact , that way , for the baby . robin : listen , if i thought that having a c - section would diminish the chances of her contracting hiv , i would do it in a second . but the fact is that there is n't any evidence that supports that . besides , kelly mentioned that on the last ultrasound , the placenta was anterior and a little low , so if we were to do a c - section -- patrick : wait a sec . your placenta 's low . do you have placenta previa ? why did n't you tell me that ? robin : calm down . i do n't have placenta previa . it 's just that , you know , kelly was glad that i decided to do a vaginal birth after all . patrick : okay , but just do n't be disappointed if i do n't pass with flying colors when it comes to lamaze training . i 've already proven i 'm going to be a terrible birth coach . robin : you know they say it takes nine months to get you prepared to have a baby , but i still ca n't believe it 's actually happening . patrick : yeah , but you 've loved most of it , have n't you ? robin : i have . you know what the best part of it was ? patrick : hmm ? robin : going through it with you . patrick : me , too . robin : do you think we 'll have as much fun when we get married ? patrick : i hope so . robin : ah , speaking of marriage , i have to call maxie . she 's helping me organize everything . thank god . i mean , if i had to deal with work and the pregnancy , and all of the wedding plans -- patrick : hey . robin : hmm ? patrick : you know , if it 's too much stress , we can put off the wedding for a little bit . robin : you know , we have been moving pretty fast . and if you think that it 's too much to become father and husband at the same time , we can put it off . [ scene_break ] tracy : daddy , we can not wait in this -- this rat - infested hellhole much longer . when are you going to get the charges against luke dropped ? edward : tracy , this is not like burying a parking ticket . every time i think i 'm making headway , baldwin comes up with another absurd charge to pin on spencer . tracy : i 'm not interested in excuses , mr. sell - high - and - split . edward : and , tracy , i am not interested in any more of your insults . anyway , i 've already reminded judge randall of the rather considerable donation to his re - election campaign . tracy : so what 's the problem ? [ edward sighs ] edward : tracy , dear , the wheels of justice grind slowly . and obviously at ridiculously high prices . so you 're just going to have to sit tight until i get this whole thing figured out . tracy : that 's easy for you to say . tracy : we have to wait . luke : no way . nothing keeps me from my daughter . tracy : you know , i 'm a big believer in better late than never . but let 's face it , luke . it is your fault that you were not there for lulu when she needed you . [ scene_break ] robin : if you are feeling -- if you 're having second thoughts about getting married , i totally understand . i mean , considering that my uncle mac handcuffed you and dragged you to the station , and locked you in the room . patrick : i 'm the one that asked you to marry me first . you 're the one that said no . robin : i know , but if , you know , something changed between the time that you proposed to me , and you got handcuffed , then i would totally understand . patrick : i would take you to the hospital chapel , you , and marry you right now . but i know that you want family there . robin : yeah , i do . see , i 'm practicing already . patrick : yes , sounds good . you sure you 're not too stressed about wedding plans ? robin : yes , because maxie is handling everything . she is party planner extraordinaire . she actually loves haggling with the caterers and the flower people and the music people and whatever else there is . all i have to do is show up and promise to love you forever . patrick : yes . robin : hmm . our baby likes that idea . patrick : speaking of which , i should apologize for today . about lamaze class , i 'm really sorry about that , but i promise you that i 'm going to be the best dad ever , starting with the second you get out of there . robin : and with any luck , we 'll actually have a name for you . patrick : speaking of names , you know what ? i actually like that alyssa rose . robin : do you want to ask her ? patrick : i should , probably . okay , how about you ? two for yes , one kick for no . nothing ? robin : hmm , no , nothing . i think she wants to be called georgie malcolm . patrick : we ca n't do -- robin : yes . patrick : okay , what about georgie rose , then . robin : ooh , that sounds like a stripper . patrick : kind of does , actually . that 's not really what we want to do . robin : see , is n't this fun ? patrick : yes , naming our child after strippers . robin : i just mean that picking a name is really the only thing that we have left to worry about . everything else is perfect . patrick : yeah . patrick : now , if we could just put this baby back together .

[ scene_break ] trey : you know , if kate is the one who left me for dead , then why would i want to do anything with her ? why would i care about helping her ? starr : okay , look at it this way . say it was kate who abandoned you and not connie . she had just given birth to her rapist 's baby , and she panicked . you , on the other hand , conspired with your father to get revenge on sonny , which almost got kristina killed . which one is worse , trey ? trey : look , i swear , starr . i had no idea that my father intended to kill kristina . i did n't think he was capable of something like that . if i did , i would have never gone along with it .

[ scene_break ] todd : that night , right . um -- well , there 's the obvious . you gave birth to a baby in a bus stop . and , uh -- téa : keep talking . todd : okay . [ clears throat ] the baby was n't crying , and so , uh , we needed help , but the car would n't drive , and we could n't call anybody because the cell tower was down . and let me tell you . you were a complete mess . you were not capable -- téa : so i told you to take the baby and get help . todd : and you made me promise you that i would never let anything bad happen to that child , and i made that promise . téa : then what ? todd : what do you mean , `` then what ? `` then -- then i -- well , in the woods , i , uh -- i did n't see much . i saw a car parked on the side of the road . and then i saw light . and so i moved towards the light , and that 's how i found the shack , and inside the shack was the crazy lady . téa : heather webber . todd : yes . how was i supposed to know ? i 'd never met her before . i 'd never seen her before . how was i supposed to know what she was capable of ? téa : you did n't find it at all odd or suspicious that she was there ? todd : find it odd ? i had a dying baby in my arms , and she swore that she was good with babies . she insisted . so i - i -- téa : you what ? todd . i need you to tell me right now exactly what happened next . [ scene_break ] jason : i do n't know if sam and i are gon na get back together or not . monica : well , you ca n't be hesitating because of the baby , jason . i know you . you can love that child even though he is n't biologically yours . jason : i do . i do love him . you know , but that -- that does n't change the mistakes i 've made . so whatever happens next -- is gon na be up to sam .

[ sighs ] i keep thinking about that funeral we had for the other baby . alexis : molly . sam : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . i think about him a lot , too . molly : i mean , we read him poems , and we cried over him , and he was n't even yours . sam : he deserved to be mourned , and he will be mourned again . okay ? [ gasps ] hi . [ scene_break ] téa : what happened after you gave my baby to heather ? todd : heather told me to wait outside . she took the baby inside the cabin . téa : so you gave my child to a complete stranger . todd : she said she had medical experience , and she said she wanted to examine the baby without me there to distract her . téa : so you said , `` go ahead . take him . just -- no problem . `` todd : what i said to her was if anything bad happened to that child after everything i had done to you , she would die a slow death . that 's what i told her . and then she came outside , and she handed me the baby . she handed me a baby . she handed me a very - much - alive , breathing baby , and i was so relieved , i did n't bother to find out where she was headed . and then you show up , and you just grab the baby out of my arms . téa : the baby was n't mine . todd : how was i supposed to know that ? how was i supposed to know that ? ! how was i supposed to know she had another baby in the cabin ? ! how was i supposed to know that your baby was dead ? ! téa : you could n't tell that it was a different baby ? ! todd : you could n't tell either ! téa : i had n't seen him ! i had n't held him ! you took him away before i could ! todd : because you asked me to ! i did n't have a choice ! téa : you could n't tell that he felt different , that he weighed differently ? todd : he felt alive ! i gave her a baby that was n't breathing . she gave me back a baby that was breathing . that 's what i felt . that was the difference . [ sighs ] téa : and sam morgan -- you did n't see her ? todd : no . that 's probably why heather did n't want me to go into the shack . that 's probably why she insisted that she take the baby into the shed by herself . téa : but you did go in the shed . after . i was seated on the porch with the baby . you went into the shed , did n't you ? todd : téa , i went into the shed for , like , seven seconds , okay ? all i saw was a wheel barrow and gardening stuff -- pots . téa : no heather . no sam . todd : no . look , i was so focused on getting you and the baby to a hospital before anything happened to that baby . heather -- is bananas . this is all because she 's got some crazy grudge against sam . that 's why heather did what she did . w - why are you looking at me -- why are you looking at me like you do n't believe me ? [ scene_break ] luke : slim , you know how i feel about you . all i want is to try to get back to where we were before heather happened . anna : okay . [ clears throat ] you want to get back to where we were when you were lying to me about robert ? luke : okay . all right . all right . forget about me . just -- just forget about us for now . let 's talk about this duke lavery or whoever he is . i understand that him showing up after all these years from the grave is overwhelming and very confusing . but for god 's sake , you 're a cop . be careful .

[ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : oh , forgive the theatrics , maedchen ( girl ) . i simply could n't resist seeing the look on your face . i thought you would guess the game before i revealed my true identity . one would think you 'd be all too aware of what a good mask can do . robin : you 're even sicker than i thought you were . dr. obrecht : and you , more weak . tell me , who wins ? robin : where 's jerry ? dr. obrecht : recovering from his unfortunate shoulder injury . robin : okay , so ... [ sighs ] what -- this is your new plan ? are you going to kidnap my mother so you can replace her , too ? dr. obrecht : please . i have no intentions of masquerading as your mother . working eight hours a day behind a desk on a government salary ? no , that 's torture . i needed the mask to procure ... someone else . robin : who ? faison : that would be me . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , thank you , uh , you know , for coming by today . duke : you 're very welcome , although your associate made it perfectly clear i did n't have much choice . sonny : yeah , well , he -- he can be pretty , uh , intimidating , as you can probably see . duke : well , whatever our mutual interests are , i hope this does n't take too long . sonny : i want to ask you a few questions about , uh , um ... an old friend of yours . julian jerome . duke : we were not friends . sonny : associate . duke : what about him ? sonny : i 'm sure you 've heard about , uh , what happened to my recent shipment . duke : a coffee shipment , was n't it ? sonny : a freighter exploded as it approached the pier . duke : i was with anna when she got the report , and i was later on the scene . and , apparently , there was n't much evidence . sonny : that was the first incident . i 'm sure it was n't the biggest . duke : do you have any idea who 's targeting you ? sonny : yeah . uh , shawn has -- uh , he 's been interviewing , you know , the competition . talked to one of the enforcers . duke : did he offer up any insight ? shawn : as a matter of fact , he did . his boss ' name ? julian jerome . duke : well , in that case , the man was lying to you , 'cause julian jerome is ... dead . sonny : i was hoping that maybe you can , uh , tell me something about his death . duke : well , uh , he died in a gunfight . sonny : with who ? duke : me . ... or , rather , the person who was pretending to be me . [ scene_break ] faison : my dear robin . it 's been a long time . robin : stay away from me . so , this is why you abandoned your grandson and left him with me -- so you could break this psychopath out of prison ? dr. obrecht : i knew you 'd take good care of the baby . and as much as i love my liebchen ( dear ) , he would 've gotten in the way of a jailbreak . [ scene_break ] britt : if she ca n't bring ben to my father , she 'd bring my father to him . she 'd have to break him out . nikolas : again , steinmauer is a maximum - security prison . it 's supposed to be escape - proof . britt : look , it 's not a problem for my mother . she 's capable of anything , especially when it comes to my father . nikolas : you ca n't go down this road right now . it 's -- it 's not good for you or ben to speculate on any of this . britt : you know something , do n't you ? nikolas : [ clears throat ] britt : do n't you ? nikolas : i do n't know anything for sure . but considering how the reps at the prison clammed up ... something 's gone down there . [ scene_break ] anna : of course , i would use your help if -- if i could . mac : anna , i know how the game is played . you got to keep your cards close to your chest , okay ? but do n't forget the person you 're looking for concerns me , too . liesl obrecht . she almost killed robert , put him in a coma for almost a year ! i want her brought to justice as much as anyone ! anna : right . obrecht is involved in this case . but really , i - i 'm not at liberty to say anything else . i 'm sorry . mac : well , just let me know . is there anything i can do to help ? anna : of course . i - i will let you know . yeah . mac : so , you two need a minute ? robert : uh -- anna : yeah . robert : i - if you would n't mind . mac : all right . i 'll go check in with felicia . [ sighs ] anna : [ sighs ] robert : did you speak with faison ? anna : there was a ... few complications . robert : what did he say about our daughter ? anna : he said robin was alive . [ scene_break ] sabrina : peace offering ? patrick : thank you . but you do n't need to offer peace . you were right about my conversation with duke . i was trying to find out when anna 's back . i want to tell her about the call . sabrina : but , patrick ... [ sighs ] we agreed that it would be wrong to get anna 's hopes up , to even let her consider that robin could 've called you , when we both know it was nothing . patrick : but that 's the thing , sabrina . i do n't -- i do n't think it was nothing . [ scene_break ] robin : i said stay away from me ! faison : careful , robin . you do n't want to upset the baby . ben : [ crying ] dr. obrecht : like all the women in her family -- oh , yeah -- dr. scorpio - drake has an inflated opinion of herself . cesar is not here to see you . yeah ! allow me to introduce you to your grandson ! faison : hi , sweetheart ! look at that ! ben : [ crying ] dr. obrecht : aw . faison : look ! look ! hey ! yeah ! my little grandson . dr. obrecht : yeah . faison : oh , you sweet -- know what ? we are going to accomplish so much together , you and i. yeah ! is that a good thumb ? ben : [ cries ] [ scene_break ] sonny : so , uh , this other person -- you talking about faison , the bastard who killed jason ? duke : mm , no . my apologies . last year was not the first time that somebody assumed my identity . sonny : mm ? duke : when i was first in turkish prison , i had a cell - mate whose name was jonathan paget . i assumed he was a plant . he found out everything he could about me , and then he came back to port charles and assumed my identity . he convinced anna that he was me . that was after he 'd had radical plastic surgery . sonny : so this other guy -- he 's the one who killed julian ? duke : yes . uh , julian and i were destined to destroy each other , no matter who played my part . and i 'm afraid jonathan paget will be of no help to you . sonny : paget 's dead ? duke : yes . it 's rather poetic , in a way . julian and paget faced each other at a cabin . neither survived . sonny : so there were n't a - any other witnesses , nobody alive that could verify the story ? duke : nobody was a witness to the incident . uh , julian 's body was discovered ... actually ... by robert scorpio . [ scene_break ] robert : i knew it , anna . i told you . our daughter 's alive ! anna : that 's what faison said . robert : well , uh , what else did he say ? did he say where obrecht may have taken her ? anna : no . no , um ... after ... he said robin was alive , then he refused to give out any more information . robert : so he clammed up ? anna : not exactly . faison would n't tell me where she is . he said he would show me , provided i went with him . robert : what ? anna : and that 's when obrecht jumped me . and faison and obrecht -- they got away . [ scene_break ] faison : you are beautiful . yes , you are . mm . dr. obrecht : the spitting image of his opa ( grandpa ) . faison : you are a little ... dr. obrecht : say hello to your grossvater ( grandfather ) ! faison : yeah . robin : i do n't understand . you said this is -- this is patrick 's son . [ sighs ] and this is also faison 's grandson ? dr. obrecht : patrick is the father of our wenig ( little ) cesar , and his mother , my darling britta , is cesar 's daughter . faison : you 're a cutie . are n't you ? yes , you are . [ scene_break ] woman on pa : on behalf of our greece - based crew , we 'd like to welcome you to athens . we 're still waiting for a gate , so until we 're parked safely at the airport , we ask that you remain seated . britt : oh , come on . this is torture . we 're in athens , and we ca n't even get off the damn plane ? ! are you -- nikolas : i 'm sure they 'll find a gate for us soon . britt : [ sighs ] tell me , uh , about your family 's island . w - what 's it like ? nikolas : [ chuckling ] okay . um ... it 's beautiful ... from a distance . a beautiful prison -- i 'll say that . britt : oh , that 's cheerful ! nikolas : right ? britt : mm ! nikolas : [ chuckles ] um ... well , i was -- i was born there . spent the first 16 years of my life there . britt : did you hate it ? nikolas : no ! no . not -- not always . i lived with my uncle for the most part . he had his flaws , but he was good to me . i remember when i was 8 , my -- my grandmother pulled a coup in the middle of the night . britt : seriously ? nikolas : yeah . britt : a coup ? nikolas : right ? yeah , i - i woke up one morning , and i - i - i came down to join my uncle for breakfast , and he was n't there . my grandmother was . i - i did n't know if -- if they had killed him , if he was ever coming back . i - i did n't know . britt : did -- did -- did he ? nikolas : yeah ! britt : come back ? nikolas : yeah , he -- it took him about a year , but yeah , he -- he eventually , uh , was able to turn the tables and force her out . britt : wow . so , for a year , you were with your grandmother ... on that island . nikolas : yes . yes . and i was absolutely terrified of her . but i will say she brought in her own pastry chef from paris . and the croissants were incroyable . britt : [ laughs ] nikolas : but my uncle -- as soon as he came back , he fired her entire staff . i did n't miss most of them , but i - i was sad to see that pastry chef go . i really was . britt : [ laughs ] sounds like you had a more bizarre upbringing than i did . nikolas : oh , gosh . do n't waste your sympathy on me . i was incredibly privileged . woman on pa : ladies and gentlemen , we 're being rerouted to an alternate gate . we apologize for the additional delay . britt : delay ? are -- [ sighs ] woman on pa : please feel free to use your cell phones at this time . [ cell phone chiming ] nikolas : i have a missed call from anna . britt : w - what is it ? what did -- what did she say ? nikolas : she has some news on your mother . [ scene_break ] robin : you two are britta 's parents . and my husband ... had a son ... with faison 's daughter ? dr. obrecht : a fact he was n't aware of at the time . robin : but he is now ? does patrick know that you have his son ? dr. obrecht : enough questions ! look at him ! so strong ! so much intelligence in his eyes ! faison : yes . an heir to be proud of , is n't it ? dr. obrecht : i told you . are n't you glad you decided to come with me instead ? ben : [ crying ] dr. obrecht : that i brought you here ? faison : yeah . but i wish it had n't been at my dear anna 's expense . robin : what ? what are you talking about ? what did you do to my mother ? [ scene_break ] anna : so , when i came to , obrecht and faison were gone . robert : but are you all right ? anna : yes , i 'm fine ! of course , i 'm fine . the staff checked me over . i 'm just frustrated , because it was an amateur mistake . i should 've had obrecht restrained . instead , i was distracted . i was distracted by faison when i saw him ! oh , god . i loathe that man . i hate him . he has some kind of sick hold over me . robert : look . let 's not beat ourselves up over this , all right ? anna : i let them get away clean . they did n't leave a trace . robert : so , we have no leads . we have nothing . we do n't know where our daughter is . anna : we do n't even know that faison is telling the truth . this could be some twisted game to get inside my head . robert : no . not this time . anna : you warned me . faison is insidious . he 's made this kind of obsessive study of my life . he knows what buttons to push . he knows what i am desperate to hear . he told me robin was alive , because i practically begged him to . that does n't make it true ! robert : you do n't listen to faison . you listen to me . i 've seen her . i know she 's alive ! the minute we find obrecht , we find our daughter ! [ cell phone ringing ] anna : maybe this is a lead . nikolas ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : i was with you last night . you seemed to accept that it could n't have been robin on the phone . patrick : i know that it does n't make sense . but the more that i go over it in my head , the more i 'm convinced that i heard robin . sabrina : you said the connection was terrible . patrick : it was . and there was lots of static , and it kept cutting in and out . sabrina : and did n't the caller say something about the sun ? patrick : i said that it was a bad connection , and i might 've misunderstood that part . sabrina : maybe you heard what you wanted to hear . it was robin 's birthday . you were thinking about her . it 's understandable that your mind would play tricks on you . patrick : somebody called . i know robin 's voice . but let 's just say that it was n't her . then who was it ? sabrina : i know you did n't just make up a phone call . patrick : but you do n't think that it was robin on the phone . sabrina : most likely , it was a wrong number . patrick : [ clears throat ] that 's what i told myself last night . the more i thought about it , the less that it made sense . now , i 'm not saying ... if it was n't robin on the phone , somebody definitely said her name , and -- and that would be one hell of a coincidence if it was just a wrong number . sabrina : patrick ... robin 's gone . there 's no way it could 've been her . there has to be some other explanation . patrick : i know . but in this moment , i do n't know what that could be . [ scene_break ] ben : [ crying ] robin : what did you do to my mother ? dr. obrecht : oh , spare us the hysterics ! your mother 's alive , much to my chagrin . she was surprised to find me one step ahead of her . naturally , she tried to thwart our escape , but she did n't anticipate my resolve . needless to say , i ... subdued her . robin : [ chuckles ] looks like she did n't go down without a fight . good shot , mom . dr. obrecht : insolence . faison : [ murmuring ] robin : so , if my mother was n't there to intercept you , why was she at that prison ? faison : well , she came to see me . robin : my mother hates you . why would she willingly go anywhere near you ? faison : because your stupid father could n't keep his mouth shut . he told your mother you were alive . dr. obrecht : cesar ! what are you doing ? ! ben : [ fusses ] robin : my father . [ chuckles ] my father 's awake . he saw me , and he knows that i 'm alive . that 's why my mom was there -- because she knows that . she knows that you have me , and they 're looking for me right now ! [ scene_break ] anna : no , nikolas . as far as i could tell , obrecht did n't have ben at the prison . nikolas : i understand . anna : i 'm afraid i let her slip through our fingers again . i 'm so sorry . nikolas : uh , d - do n't apologize . anna : the wsb are gon na be on the trail of obrecht and faison , and ... [ sighs ] as yet , they do n't have any indication of where they 've gone . nikolas : uh , britt and i ... may know where they are . anna : why ? did obrecht contact her daughter again ? nikolas : she sent her a video message . anna : did she say where she is ? nikolas : she just , uh , went on about wanting to be a family again , but ... i recognized where the message was recorded . obrecht was definitely on cassadine island . anna : cassadine island ? uh , could you forward me that message ? nikolas : yes , of course . anna : okay . i 'll be on a flight to greece , then . nikolas : okay . uh , britt and i actually just landed in -- in athens . as soon as we de - plane , we 're chartering a boat to the island . anna : under no circumstances do you go on that island . nikolas : uh , anna , with all due respect , it -- it is my island . i own it . i have every right to go there . anna : no . you listen to me . this is dangerous . i want you and britt to remain in athens ... until i give you further instructions . do you understand me ? have i made myself clear ? nikolas : yes . clear . anna : all right . i 'll be in touch . [ sighs ] robert : great . when are we leaving ? [ scene_break ] sonny : robert scorpio found julian 's body . duke : you sound skeptical . sonny : well , you know , he -- scorpio has a history of faking deaths . duke : indeed , but he would n't use that expertise for somebody like julian jerome . sonny : and why would you say that ? duke : because he was a threat , like all the jeromes . he was a threat to me , to anna , and , by extension , to robin . i mean , the father , victor jerome -- he was obsessive , pathologically greedy . the daughter , olivia -- she was a lunatic . the sanest of them all was julian , but even he was dangerous and evil . so if scorpio says he was dead , then he was most definitely dead . sonny : okay . duke : so it seems to me the man that you spoke to was intentionally misleading you . shawn : well , he was pretty convincing . duke : well , if there is a julian jerome , it 's only somebody with the same name . i can assure you he is no relation . sonny : what makes you so sure ? duke : julian only had a son , one son . he did n't even know he had him . he was adopted by tony and bobbie jones . he 's carly 's brother , lucas jones . so , if that is all , gentlemen ... sonny : actually , there 's something else . how much do you , uh , know about your new boss ? duke : derek wells ? why are you inquiring about him ? does this have something to do with julian jerome ? sonny : no , absolutely not . but since you 're in my office ... this -- this guy wells has been , like -- he 's been taking shots at me in his newspaper . i barely even know the guy . i mean , i might 've had , what -- one conversation with him ? i have n't had any business dealings with him . but for whatever reason , he keeps coming after me . so ... any inside information ... would be greatly appreciated . duke : i ca n't offer you much . i deal mostly on the corporate side . the editorial side , i do n't have much say in . and , personally ... i hardly know mr. wells . sonny : so , you two were n't acquainted before you started working for him ? duke : i never laid eyes on him before . shawn : how 'd you get the job ? duke : well , the same way most people get employment . i was looking for work , and , just by chance and mutual acquaintances , i met mr. wells , and he offered to look at my résumé . sonny : so the guy just -- just hired you , just like that ? duke : well , he was a little reluctant at first . he was a little concerned about my past involvement with organized crime . sonny : oh , he was . duke : yes , but i assured him that part of my life was dead and buried ... especially now that i 'm involved with anna . [ scene_break ] robert : we leave now , we can be there in the morning . anna : excuse me ? robert : we ca n't afford to waste another day . anna : robert , you do n't understand . there 's no `` we `` about this . i 'm gon na handle this . you 're in no condition to walk out of this facility . robert : come on , you yourself said it . i 'm back on both feet . anna : you 're not recovered . robert : anna , this is our daughter out there . our daughter . all those times , all those important occasions that i missed -- what was i doing ? i 'm out saving other people 's kids but never my own . i failed her . anna : robin never thought that . you were her hero . robert : yeah , well , now it 's time to start acting like one . anna : you need to get better . robert : when i was lying on that floor there with obrecht 's needle stuck in my gut , robin was wheeled past me , strapped to a wheelchair . i saw her . she saw me . she knows that i saw her . i heard her voice . she 's waiting for me to come for her . anna : i know how badly you want this . i would feel the same way . but you are not strong enough . you ca n't risk it . robert : you 're talking to me about risks ? anna : well , robin would want you to be better . robert : then it 's a good thing that i 'm the parent in this arrangement . now , look ... i happen to know cassadine island . i can get us in and out of the compound undetected . i 'm coming with you . [ scene_break ] faison : i offered to bring anna to see you . dr. obrecht : stille ( silent ) ! despite cesar succumbing to his adolescent crush and telling anna that you 're still alive , we were able to evade her . robin : not for long . dr. obrecht : she may have her suspicions , but she has no proof . in fact , considering all the times and all the ways cesar has deceived your mother -- double crosses , brainwashing , hypnosis , latex masks ... it 's doubtful that she believed him when he told her you were alive . faison : of course , my sweet anna believes me . dr. obrecht : more importantly , she and your father have n't the slightest idea where to find you , so you see , my dear dr. scorpio - drake , this changes nothing . faison : [ popping lips ] [ scene_break ] anna : look , even if i agreed that i needed your assistance , and i 'm not saying that i do , i still think it 's better that you stay here . robert : is this your version of reverse psychology ? anna : no . i know better . but have you thought about your brother ? you know , he does n't know what we believe about robin , and if you suddenly hop a plane to greece , what are we gon na tell mac ? mac : tell me what ? [ scene_break ] duke : happy to be of service . sonny : thanks for all the info . it was great . and , you know , it makes me feel really good that you 're on the straight and narrow , especially working for derek wells . duke : i do n't know why that should be so important to you . and i do n't suppose you 're gon na tell me . but if you come across anything , any information that concerns anna and me , i trust you will keep us in the loop . sonny : yeah , yeah , yeah . we 'll see . shawn : well , that 's it . sonny : you think ? shawn : yeah , i mean , lavery made a real compelling case due to the fact that julian jerome is dead , which means he is n't derek wells . i mean , he 's definitely not the head of some rival syndicate that went after our shipment . sonny : lavery regrets anything to do with the mob . you heard him talking about anna . he 's not gon na do anything , you know , criminal as long as he 's with her . shawn : so ? sonny : julian jerome is a symbol of what he left behind . he wants to believe that he 's dead and buried . does not make it true . shawn : robert scorpio was the police commissioner at that time . he saw jerome dead . how do you get around that ? sonny : cops lie all the time , you know , for different reasons . shawn : with all due respect , you know , i think you 're -- you know , you 're too attached to your theory about julian jerome and derek wells being the same person . i mean , it was a good idea , but it did n't pan out . look , i 'll look into some other leads and see what i can come up with . sonny : no . stay on the jeromes . i got a gut feeling . something does n't sit right with me . [ scene_break ] nikolas : [ grunts ] at long last . i keep an apartment in the city . we can rest there for a few hours . britt : is the boat you hired still there ? nikolas : yeah , i have n't canceled the charter yet . britt : great . i mean , how long is it to cassadine island ? nikolas : britt , anna told us to wait . britt : anna also told me she was gon na help me find my son before she decided to take the scenic route through switzerland . nikolas : whatever she 's doing , i - i 'm sure it 's to help find -- britt : that 's my baby out there , nikolas . i 'm going to get him now , whether anna likes it or not . [ scene_break ] anna : just was trying to stop him from exerting himself , you know , in case he had a relapse , and then i 'd have you to answer to . mac : yeah , nice try . i assume it was about the case . anna : yeah . mac : i guess for a minute i was missing that life . anna : that 's understandable . how 's felicia ? mac : yeah , well , um ... about that . look , robert , now that you 're back on your feet , i need to get back to port charles . something 's going on with maxie . she needs me . anna : is everything all right ? mac : it will be . at least , i hope so . robert : you listen to me , little brother . you 've got to do whatever you 've got to do . now , maxie -- maxie 's your daughter , and i know you 're gon na do whatever you can to help her . mac : well , thanks . i ... i ca n't tell you how great it is to see you back . robert : likewise . mac : all right . i 'll , uh , i 'll see you back in the states . anna : safe travels , okay ? mac : thank you . robert : i think your last excuse just walked out the door . now , if you 're going to this island , i 'm coming with you . [ scene_break ] faison : i have so much to teach you . do you know that ? so much you need to understand , sweetheart . [ baby fusses ] faison : yes , indeed . dr. obrecht : come now . come now , cesar . it 's been an exhausting day . you need to get to know your little grandson away from this gutter trash . robin : you messed up . and you know it . my parents are the best at what they do . dr. obrecht : your presence here proves otherwise . robin : my mother already managed to injure your hand . i wonder what she 'll do to you the next time she sees you . or my father , for that matter . he wo n't be distracted next time . he will kill you both without hesitation . faison : yeah , you sure have your mother 's fire . robin : if i had my mother 's gun , i 'd blow your head off . dr. obrecht : enough of this nonsense . you 're in no position to make threats . robin : maybe not . but i can promise you one thing . now that my mother and father know that i 'm alive , there is nothing that will stop them from finding me . [ baby fusses ] faison : oh ! dr. obrecht : we 'll see . shall we ? faison : bye - bye . [ baby fusses ] [ scene_break ] sabrina : is it possible maybe somebody wanted you to think that robin called you ? patrick : what are you saying ? sabrina : well , i do n't know . like a prank call or something . maybe that 's why the number was blocked , so you could n't trace it . patrick : so you think a kid called me , pretending to be my dead wife . sabrina : no . you 're right . kids would n't do that . patrick : so who would , then ? who would do something like this ? sabrina : i 'm not sure . hey , um , do you mind if i take off for a little while ? i just remembered i - i promised felix , to meet him . patrick : yeah , of course . i 'll see you later . sabrina : yeah . count on it . hey ... try not to let this get to you , okay ? it 's the last thing robin would want . she loved you . so do i . patrick : i love you , too . [ scene_break ] robin : let me out of here ! faison , if you know what 's good for you , you 'll let me go ! [ panting ] you 're not gon na get away with this ! my parents know i 'm alive . and ... they 're gon na come get me . mom and dad -- they 're gon na come get me out of here . i know it .

sabrina : it 's all my fault . felix : [ sighs ] well , there 's nothing you can do about it now . and , hey , at least you put a stop to it . no harm done . sabrina : [ scoffs ] i put a stop to it , but who knows how many pills ava took before i did . ava could be in labor as we speak . morgan : all right . just hang on . kiki 's coming , all right ? ava : i wish she 'd hurry up . morgan : well , i 'm sure she 's moving as fast as she can , but in the meantime , ava , look at me . nothing 's gon na happen to you or the baby . i wo n't let it . ava : morgan , if only it were up to you . morgan : well , i 'm sure she 's gon na be here any minute , you know , with her dad , and then you 'll see . silas is gon na take care of everything . ava : uh - huh . morgan : all right ? kiki : silas , are -- you he -- oh , my gosh ! silas ! can you hear me ? dad ! oh , my god . okay . thank god . what happened ? silas : nina . [ groans ] madeline : james , it 's your mother . i just wanted to warn you in case you do find nina . please be careful . you do n't realize how dangerous she can be . god help me . i 'm afraid of her . and the last thing in the world i want to happen is for you to become the subject of nina 's wrath . [ knock on door ] nina : mother . madeline : darling , how ... wonderful to see you . nina : what the hell are you doing here ? bobbie : well , you did n't say much about the run - in with sonny . anything you want to talk about ? carly : [ chuckles ] same as usual . bobbie : you know , honey , if you do n't want to go through with this wedding to franco , it 's not too late to change your mind . carly : yeah , i 'm not so sure about that . sonny : i ca n't believe i did n't think of this before . it 's perfect . somebody easy to pin the murder on , somebody who definitely hates franco ... heather webber . the only person crazier than franco himself -- his own mother . heather : franco ? franco : hello , mother . heather : hello , son . franco : long time , no see . shawn : so , you like heather webber for the franco job ? sonny : i know she comes with drawbacks , but on the plus side , she 's a homicidal maniac . she 's already tried to kill franco once . shawn : and no one would be surprised if she took another shot at him . sonny : exactly . with the exception of me , no one hates franco more than his own mother . heather : [ sighs ] what did you do with your hair ? franco : nothing . i just -- heather : well , i do n't like it . what are you doing here ? franco : a son ca n't visit his mother ? heather : oh , i only have one real son . his name is steven lars , and he knows how a son should behave . franco : that son 's not gon na be visiting you , because he 's locked up for murder . heather : yeah , well , he was unjustly convicted . he 's a good doctor and a good son , unlike my current visitor . franco : yeah , well , i 'm your son , too . heather : a son reveres his mother . a son minds his mother . franco : oh , i mind you , mother . believe me . heather : there you go with the lip again , mouthing off . franco : yes . you ... are ... absolutely right . and i 'm sorry . clearly , we have some issues to work through . heather : issues ? issues like when you stabbed me in the foot ? franco : that was unkind . you had just shot me in the gut . heather : well , you brought that on yourself when you chose that bleached - blond bimbo carly instead of your own flesh and blood . bobbie : carly , why is it too late to call off the wedding ? carly : uh , it just is , mom . okay ? it just is , all right ? bobbie : no , it 's not okay . i mean , the wedding is on halloween , which i will never understand , despite who the groom is . carly : okay , mom . bobbie : but halloween is only a few days away . so the only time it 's too late to call off a wedding is after the wedding . carly : trust me . just trust me on this one . bobbie : oh , yeah , well , if i had a dime for every time i heard that one , i would be mistress of wyndemere . carly : you 'd be mistress of wyndemere if you had stayed married to stefan cassadine . whatever happened to that guy , anyway ? bobbie : answer the question . carly : i did what you wanted me to do , okay ? i ended things with sonny . i 'm trying to focus on franco . why are you pushing this ? bobbie : because i 'm lying to scott . carly : oh , really ? ! oh , come on ! i mean , if keeping my secrets is such a burden for you , well , hell , next time , i 'll confide in lucy coe . bobbie : grow up , okay ? carly : or maxie . how about that ? bobbie : you know i would lie , cheat , and steal for you , but that does n't mean i have to like it . carly : i 'm sorry . i am sorry that i put everything on you . i wish i would n't have . bobbie : know what i like even less ? the idea of you shackling yourself to a man for the rest of your life if he is n't the man that you really want to be with . sabrina : i already tried calling ava . she 's not picking up her phone . she could already be in distress . felix : or she could be screening her calls . sabrina : but how do i make sure that she 's okay ? i - i had to call her friend jordan 15 times to -- to get her to finally warn ava . felix : okay , look , if jordan 's involved , your worries are over . sabrina : how can you be sure ? felix : jordan works for ava . there 's no way she 's gon na risk that threat to her cash flow . if you got the message to her , she 'll take care of it . sabrina : i hope so . god , felix . what happened to me ? how could i go after ava by trying to hurt her baby ? felix : that was n't you . that was the grief , a kind of grief that no one should ever know . sabrina : that 's no excuse . what i did -- it 's despicable . it 's criminal . i - i could get arrested . i could be thrown in jail . and forget about my nursing career . nathan : hey . felix : hey , detective west , uh ... my former dance partner . can we help you ? nathan : i hope so . i - i need to find my sister . madeline : is that any way to greet your mother ? nina : how about a choke hold ? madeline : let 's not get off on the wrong foot . nina : you 're supposed to be in rikers . you 're supposed to be rotting in prison . did you bust out ? madeline : [ chuckles ] hardly . my conviction was overturned . nina : overturned ? you tried to kill me . madeline : i did no such thing . nina : that 's right . that 's right . that 's right . you just -- you just killed my baby ... my defenseless , unborn child . madeline : nina ... [ sighs ] i ca n't tell you how bad i feel about that . nina : do you feel bad ? do you feel bad ? because you killed my baby . and you put me in a coma for 20 years . but you feel bad ? madeline : i do . and i am willing to do anything it takes -- nina : anything it takes , mother ... will never be enough . kiki : nina did that to you ? silas : we had an argument . we were talking about something , i turned around , and ... she hit me over the head with something . kiki : what ? what could you two have possibly been fighting about that would make her ... i - i need to talk to her , because she adores you . silas : no . the truth is nina 's wanted to hurt me for a long time . and i 'm not the only one . madeline : nina , if you could just give me a chance to -- nina : the only chance you have right now is to repent . repent ! repent ! repent ! repent ! repent ! you murdered my baby . you murdered my baby ! the courts may have let you get away with that ... but i never will . sonny : under any other circumstances , i would n't want to frame a woman no matter how much i despise her , but this just lines up perfectly . heather is the way to go . shawn : [ chuckles ] yeah , i 'm not sure those words have ever been spoken before . sonny : she 's the mother from hell . you give her the means and the opportunity , she will slit franco 's throat . shawn : well , that 's true , but we ca n't forget about the most important thing about her . sonny : if we break her out of ferncliff , she 's as likely to kill carly as she is franco . franco : that 's a little harsh , do n't you think ? i think it 's a little unfair that you say that i chose carly over you . heather : is that right ? franco : mm - hmm . heather : well , how else would you describe filleting me , burying me alive , and sacrificing me on the altar of carly ? franco : as a mistake . and i would ask your forgiveness . heather : is that so ? franco : yes . i - i ... [ chuckles ] i have no right to ask . it 's way more than i 'm entitled to . i just -- i - i thought that you would like to know . that 's all . heather : about that slut you stabbed me for ? franco : what about her ? carly ... okay , here 's the thing . um ... things between us have shifted a little bit . heather : are you saying you 're no longer involved with that slut ? franco : uh , well , i ... heather : that 's just what i thought . why do n't you come back when you 've come to your senses ? franco : i have something for you . i 've brought you something . it 's , uh , a little something . heather : what is that ? no . it ca n't be . [ sniffs ] franco : oh , but it is . it 's from kelly 's . it 's a blt . please . help yourself . heather : you know , this changes nothing . franco : oh , no . please . i know that . come on . [ scoffs ] i 'm not gon na try and buy you off with a cheap sandwich . so , um ... i feel like you are entitled to an answer to your previous question about carly and i . heather : mm - hmm . franco : i am still involved with carly . uh , in fact , carly and i ... we 're getting married . heather : [ coughs ] carly : okay , so , this has nothing to do with scott . this is all about franco . bobbie : no . honey , this is about you . look , i know i said i would support you , but not to the point where i 'm gon na let you -- carly : did everybody `` but `` you and tony ? bobbie : oh , you do n't want to go there with me , do you ? carly : i 'm sorry . sorry . okay ? i just do n't understand why you 're making a federal case about this . bobbie : the reason is named sonny . carly : okay . sonny and i -- we said our goodbyes , mom . we did . bobbie : as you have so many times before . carly : i love franco . i 'm marrying franco . why do you feel the need to keep harping about this ? bobbie : because you 're jumping through hoops of fire to avoid the question . carly : what question ? what -- what is the question ? because as far as i can see , i 've answered every question . bobbie : what did you mean when you said it was too late to t the brakes on your wedding ? carly : nothing . i - i just meant that , you know , everything 's in motion . everything 's already -- bobbie : see , there you go . you 're dodging it again . so i have to wonder ... carly : hmm ? bobbie : ... are you marrying franco because you really want to marry him or are you under some kind of pressure to do so ? felix : your sister -- you mean dr. westbourne ? nathan : no , my other sister , nina clay . she gets physical therapy here . felix : not anymore . nathan : i 'm sorry ? felix : i mean , unless i 'm mistaken . you know nina clay , right ? uh , red hair , wheelchair ? sabrina : uh , oh , uh , right . yeah , i 've seen her around . but i thought she was out of the wheelchair . felix : yeah , i did , too . nathan : excuse me ? felix : well , the scuttlebutt is that she made a full recovery -- like , miraculous . nathan : what do you mean miraculous ? felix : it 's just that some people wonder if she actually needed the wheelchair in the first place . nathan : thank you . yeah , this -- this has been helpful . sabrina : detective west . nathan : yeah ? sabrina : can i speak to you about a different matter ? nathan : sabrina , look , this is really urgent . i have to find my sister . felix : what different matter did you need to talk to the good detective about ? sabrina : i was about to turn myself in . kiki : a revenge list ? ! silas : yeah . thank you . sam was on it . nina 's mother . ava was on it , and so were you . kiki : i was on it ? what did i ever do to nina ? silas : i 'm guessing it 's because ava had my daughter and she did n't . kiki : that 's so messed up . silas : mm - hmm . kiki : oh , my gosh ! my mom ! that 's the whole reason i 'm here ! my mom 's having another baby right now . morgan : maybe that 's -- maybe that 's it . maybe the contractions are done , and you wo n't need a doctor or any meds or anything . ava : [ moans ] morgan : oh , no , no . okay . i 'm right here . hold my hand , hold my hand , hold my hand . hold my hand . ava : oh , no ! morgan : i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . it 's okay , it 's okay . ava : [ groans ] morgan : it 's okay . madeline : nina , you do n't sound well . are you taking your medication ? nina : oh , my medication . medication . the antidepressants . [ chuckles ] the medication you used to poison me . madeline : nina , stop it . nina : have you heard about my list ? i have a list . oh , god . you have n't heard about it . you have n't heard about it because ... we have n't -- we have n't seen each other in over 20 years , so ... madeline : nina , if you would just sit down so we could -- nina : mother ! mother ! mother ! mother ! i have a list . when i woke up from my really long nap , i thought about what happened to me -- the injustice , all the transgressions against me , and who made them . i made a list of all the people who i should pay back , and you were at the top . and then , when it came the time to put my attention on you , i did n't get payback because you were already in prison , so i had to cross you off the list . and ... then you were released . and ... you were released from prison , so then i - i got to put you back on the list . you 're back on my list ... just to cross you off of it again . [ next_on ] carly : ( to bobbie ) if i 'm so into sonny , why am i marrying franco ? sonny : ( to shawn ) once we get rid of franco , we get rid of her . ava : ( to silas ) so this is it , then ? am i in labor ? nina : ( to madeline ) i need a baby ! michael : ( to sabrina ) if carlos rivera did n't kill my father , then who did ? franco : ( to heather ) i simply must have you in my life .

[ sighs ] take it easy on yourself , franco . it 's not easy to be inspired . and it 's a good thing , right , that elizabeth 's feeling better and that she does n't need you 24/7 anymore ...

[ scene_break ] carly : [ crying ] [ doorbell rings ] carly : it 's not a good time . jason : carly , it 's me . carly : [ sobs ] [ scene_break ] tracy : what do you think alan would say if he knew you were trying to sell general hospital off to the highest bidder ? or my father ? oh , my god . he must be rolling over in his grave . lucy : you have a lot of nerve . your family is the reason the hospital 's in this mess . tracy : what ? ! monica and i are the only two people that are trying to save it . lucy : well , if it had n't been for your deranged serial - killer ex - husband , the board would have never had to close the hospital in the first place ! tracy : shh ! [ scene_break ] franco : what are you doing here ? elizabeth : well , i was making some treats for the boys , which i happened to notice you enjoyed while you were taking care of me , so i thought maybe you were jonesing for some . franco : are you accusing me of stealing your boys ' treats ? elizabeth : as much as those boys eat , there 's no way they could polish off an entire pan by themselves . franco : i do n't know . they 're really good . and just for the record , i did ask their permission before i ate all of them , and they said it was okay . elizabeth : i know . franco : [ gasps ] oh , boy . thanks . elizabeth : you 're welcome . franco : come on in . come in . sit down . make yourself at home . sorry about the mess . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] franco : no , really . you should be off of your feet . elizabeth : oh , i 've been off my feet for weeks , and i 'm tired of looking at the same four walls . no , really . please , stop . it 's okay . my house is much messier than this . franco : it 's fine . it 's all gone . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] franco : [ chuckles ] your house is messy , right ? [ both chuckle ] franco : because you have an excuse . a serial killer tried to push you down a flight of stairs . me , i have no excuse . i 'm unemployed . i have plenty of time to keep this place tidy . i just -- i lack motivation . elizabeth : but i see you 've been working on something . franco : oh , yeah . your art . that is my best work ever . those are foot doodles . i 'm trying to brush up on my technique , so now if something catches my eye , i just sketch it . elizabeth : like this ? [ scene_break ] tj : as soon as i realized morgan had been drinking , that was the warning sign . i know he 's not supposed to have alcohol with his meds , so it was n't that morgan was just drunk . it 's that he was spiraling , starting a manic episode . curtis : okay , and from what i heard , you did everything you could to keep him from getting in that car , and you got punched for it . tj : so what ? i 've taken plenty of punches for a lot dumber reasons . i should have just been stronger with morgan . more aggressive , you know ? not in a mean way , but just say , `` dude , you know you 're not supposed to be drinking . what 's going on ? talk to me . `` curtis : tj , do n't beat yourself up for not being psychic . you had no way of knowing that he was gon na actually take that car , much less know that it was wired to explode . now , all you could do is confront the situations that are presented to you , and you did that . you were being a friend . nobody can ask more of you than that . tj : it 's just all so wrong and messed up , man . it 's not enough that morgan died last night ... that he lost his life , that ... that everything that he wanted to do or that he was gon na do is never gon na happen . but on top of all that , they 're saying that , uh , mr. c might have been the one that planted the bomb . curtis : is -- is that what your mom thinks ? are they officially investigating sonny ? [ scene_break ] carly : [ crying ] how did you know i was here ? jason : uh , michael called me . told me that you moved out with joss . carly : yeah , she 's -- she 's upstairs . i just , um ... i could n't even take my suitcase upstairs . i could n't put one foot in front of the other . i do n't know how to do this , jason . i do n't know -- i do n't know how to do this at all . i do n't know how to get josslyn through this . jason : did you tell josslyn that sonny was responsible for morgan ? carly : no . jason : okay . carly : kristina told her . josslyn 's always been suspicious . now she knows that sonny killed her brother , so it 's fine . [ sniffles ] jason : carly , why are you here ? carly : [ sighs ] where am i supposed to be , jason ? jason : you 're supposed to be at home with sonny . you both lost your son , and you need each other . [ scene_break ] julian : i did n't come here to kill you , sonny . no , i came here to offer my condolences . sonny : [ laughs ] that 's very thoughtful of you . really . it really is . julian : well ... i know we 're both enemies , sonny , and we have been since everyone realized that derek wells was just an alias and i 'm really julian jerome . but just because we 're enemies , that does n't mean we , uh -- we ca n't act like human beings . morgan was a good kid . and i know you still hold a grudge for the time that he came to work for me . sonny : i 'm aware of morgan 's history with you and ava . i do n't give a damn about that . all i care about is what you want right now . julian : beyond offering my condolences ? there is one other thing . sonny : of course . [ sighs ] julian : we need to talk , sonny ... because we both know that bomb that killed morgan was meant to kill me .

[ scene_break ] tracy : no one knows better than me the damage that paul did to general hospital and port charles , but lest it slip your mind , he tried to kill monica and me . lucy : okay , i am sorry if i suggested you were any part of paul 's actions . of course , you are not responsible . tracy : so , then why do n't we focus on what 's important ? trying to reopen the hospital , not selling it off to the highest bidder . lucy : then do n't fight me . i 'll tell you what . if you really want to save general hospital , very simple solution . buy the hospital yourself . [ scene_break ] tj : look , my mom does n't tell me that much about her work . you 'd have to ask her about the investigation into morgan 's death . curtis : maybe i will . what about you ? did you see anything out of the ordinary that night ? tj : why are you so interested in this ? i mean , it 's not like you were friends with morgan . curtis : you know -- it 's that cop thing , you know ? it 's the way my brain is wired , you know ? i 'm just trained to be curious , you know ? figure stuff out . tj : you 're conducting your own private investigation , are n't you ? you 're trying to find out what really happened . curtis : you know i ca n't reveal if i 've been hired to do a private job . tj : okay . but i know who hired you . [ scene_break ] nelle : yeah , no , carly , everything 's totally fine . avery 's perfectly okay . carly : okay , thank you . nelle , i really wanted to bring avery with me , but i ... do n't have custody . nelle : no , i 'm happy to keep an eye on avery , carly . besides , uh , everything 's super - quiet here , anyway . carly : okay . thanks again . [ scene_break ] sonny : you 're really gon na accuse me of planting that bomb in your car ? you 're gon na put me on notice ? take your best shot ! julian : i do n't want revenge , sonny . we 've already had too much loss . our business ... [ sighs ] business has already spilled enough blood on both sides . sonny : both sides ? what do you mean , `` both sides `` ? julian : luke 's hit man shot lucas last year , and now you 've lost morgan . so the last thing i want to do right now , sonny , is answer violence with more violence . we need to end this cycle right now . sonny : why should i care what you want , julian ? ! julian : because it works to our mutual advantage . you planted that bomb in my car to kill me , sonny . sonny : [ chuckles ] julian : but i 'm not gon na retaliate . and neither are you . [ scene_break ] carly : [ sighs ] jason : you know that if you 're worried about avery , there 's a simple solution -- go home . carly : i ca n't go home . ca n't go home . every time i look at sonny ... all i can think about is how i 'm never gon na see morgan again . jason : sonny told you that he called off that hit , right ? carly : it does n't matter ! what does that matter , jason ? we both know that sonny 's the one who ordered the hit . i ca n't go back there . [ voice breaking ] can not go back to that house . jason : look . [ sighs ] no matter how it happened , sonny lost his child , too . and both of you are feeling this unimaginable pain , and only the two of you know what it 's like , and you need each other . carly : no , no , no . see , i have you . i have you , and that 's all i need . jason : i really wish that i was enough , but i 'm not . carly : you are . jason : i am not . i ... i wish i could take this burden from you . i wish that i could relinquish this anguish . i wish we could sit on that couch , and we could remember every single moment of morgan 's life , and at the same time , i could find a way for you to move forward , but i ca n't do it . sonny can . [ scene_break ] franco : if you 're going back to work , that means gh is officially reopened , and that 's great . i mean , nobody sent me an e - mail , but that 's a battle for a different day . i am so happy for you that you 're going back to work . elizabeth : no , thank you , and i wish that were the case because i really miss being there -- as a nurse , obviously . not a patient . but even with paul behind bars for all the murders , i have n't heard anything about the hospital reopening . and i need a paycheck , like , yesterday . franco : well , why do n't you just pick up some shifts at mercy until gh is up and running ? elizabeth : mercy is all staffed up , and so are the other surrounding hospitals . i think i 'm gon na have to widen my search . i 've heard good things about rochester . [ scene_break ] tracy : you want me to buy general hospital ? lucy : yeah . you 're always talking about all the good general hospital does and how much it means to your family . well , this is your chance . you could pay it back , and you could help the future generations the way the hospital 's helped your family , and for that matter , the way it helped you . did n't dr. munro and dr. finn recently save your life ? tracy : yeah . that 's why i want to save the hospital . lucy : all right , then save it already . put your money where your big , fat mouth is and save it yourself . [ scene_break ] curtis : t , uh , how might you know who i 'm working for ? tj : following the logic . you 're asking me a bunch of questions . you ca n't tell me who hired you , but it must be someone who has personal interest in who killed morgan . i mean , it 's pretty obvious . morgan was driving julian 's car . curtis : yeah . t , uh , like i said , you can keep guessing . i 'm not gon na tell you , right or wrong . tj : it 's sonny . you 're working for sonny . curtis : [ chuckles ] tj : i mean , sonny knows the cops are pointing the finger at him , so he hired you to get the truth , find out who cost morgan his life . okay . [ chuckles ] it 's cool . you already said you were n't gon na tell me , and that 's fine . i get it . i 'm just happy that you 're out there digging , 'cause i want to know who did this to morgan . curtis : i 'm just trying to find the truth . [ scene_break ] sonny : you taking the high road ? you kidding me ? you 've been gunning for me since you got to port charles . first , you put a hit out on duke . then when it looked like carly was gon na turn you in , you had your own lieutenant murdered . then you put your -- a knife to your wife 's throat 'cause you want to kill her , too , right ? huh ? julian : [ sighs ] sonny : so , now you 're standing there telling me that we 've both suffered enough . violence leads to more violence . well , let me tell you something -- you caused it ! julian : you want to keep coming after me ? i 'm gon na come after you . you got it ? and who are you willing to sacrifice as more collateral damage ? kristina ? huh ? michael ? josslyn ? carly ? where does it end ? and are you willing to live ... with the idea of losing your wife ? [ scene_break ] carly : i know sonny 's in pain . part of me wants to ... make him feel better and let him do the same for me . jason : then why do n't you try ? carly : [ voice breaking ] because it wo n't change anything . morgan will still be dead . jason : so ... ... now you 're willing to lose the father of your kids , too ? the man you built a life with ? carly : [ sighs ] what life ? sonny killed my son . god , i ca n't believe i 'm -- sonny killed my son , jason ! god . now i got to keep josslyn safe . i got to take care of her . i ca n't go back there . jason : listen to me . all sonny 's ever wanted done is keep his family safe , to keep you safe , to keep his kids safe . carly : he did n't keep morgan safe ! [ scene_break ] franco : so , no . i - i 'm sorry , but i - i ca n't let you move away . elizabeth : well , and i do n't want to leave , but i need an income , and i have no information on when or if the hospital is gon na open , unless you 've heard something i have n't . franco : me ? no . i mean , my only contact is dr. obrecht , and monica 's not gon na tell her anything . [ sighs ] i 'll tell you what . why do n't i put some shoes on ? and we can talk about this more . can i -- can i take you out to metro court ? and my treat . elizabeth : why do n't we go to kelly 's since we 're both not working ? franco : it 's okay . it 's still early , so we can order off the happy hour menu . [ both chuckle ] elizabeth : okay . i 'm in if you are . franco : me ? are you kidding ? half - price crab cakes . what could possibly go wrong ? let 's do it . [ scene_break ] carly : when i married sonny , i knew exactly who he was . every time . but i just thought this time was gon na be different , you know ? sonny spent time in a wheelchair , and i just thought that ... i thought that he would handle things differently this time , that he would be able to control the violence . i mean , how naive is that , right ? and why the hell did morgan get in julian 's car ? ! jason : nobody knows . nobody knows . carly : sonny 's not gon na change , jason , okay ? and he 's never lied about who he is . i 'm the one who 's been lying to myself . jason : okay , you need to stop that . nobody can fault you for this . carly : i can . i 'm a mother . my first instinct should be to protect my kids . you know ? to risk my life to keep them safe . and i did n't do that . i married a man who brought violence around them . i mean , i did n't even learn my lesson when michael spent a year in a coma . no , i did n't . now morgan 's dead . morgan 's dead . [ breathes deeply ] i 'm never gon na forgive myself . [ voice breaking ] never going to forgive myself . [ scene_break ] tj : i know that you ca n't say anything , but for me , i 'm glad that you 're looking into this for mr. c . curtis : why do you say that ? tj : because . i mean , that means he did n't do it , right ? i mean , if he was the one who ordered that bomb , why hire you ? there 's a reason everyone thinks he 's the number - one suspect , but for a father to be responsible for the death of his son , i do n't know how you go on . curtis : you know , it 's terrible when someone so young dies , especially like that . but if there 's anything good that can come out of this kind of tragedy , it 's to appreciate what you have . and i 'm -- i 'm so lucky to have you back in my life , man . really . i want to spend more time with you and everything . in fact , why do n't we -- i do n't know -- take in a bills game sometime , you know ? tj : okay . curtis : yeah . tj : i like that . i 'm with that . curtis : all right . tj : but , look , i got to get up out of here , man . i got to hit the books . curtis : oh , yes , yes . go make us proud . tj : yeah , man . you know , i got to do it . hey , but it was nice catching up with you . curtis : yeah , my man . yes , sir . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] tracy : okay , i 'm not having this conversation . i have a business to run -- elq . lucy : yeah , i - i thought that michael ran elq . tracy : he does , but unfortunately his brother got killed last night . lucy : i know . i did hear that . tracy : so , as we both know , business does not have any respect for grief , and we did not get elq back to watch it flounder . i have to concentrate on the company . lucy : okey - dokey . if that 's your final answer . but i need you to know that this third - party buyer is very motivated , really pushing for that sale , so if general hospital is to survive , then it has to reopen in the very near future . tracy : well , we both know that 's not gon na happen . not as long as two of the attacks at the hospital remain unsolved . lucy : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] julian : i know that you tried to kill me , sonny . that 's obvious , okay ? right , but , uh , in our business , it would be normal for me to threaten retaliation , right ? but that 's not why i 'm here , okay ? i 'm simply suggesting that we lay down our arms . sonny ... come on , man . let 's just have morgan 's funeral be the last one . let 's at least ... [ sighs ] let 's at least honor morgan by stopping the war . sonny : you talking to me about honor after you -- you recruited my son to work against me ? after you told me to put a leash on him less than two weeks ago ? you -- you want to talk to me about honor after you put a knife to your wife 's throat ? that 's offensive to me . and the fact that you 're in my house breathing my air , telling me lies -- that 's even more offensive . the fact that my ... my beautiful boy is dead ... ... is a violation of everything that is right and just . and if you do n't get out of my house right now , i might just balance the scales and end your miserable life because i can . julian : [ sighs ] [ door closes ] nelle : mr. corinthos ? are you all right ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : we just heard you tell lucy the hospital ca n't reopen because the murders have n't been solved ? i do n't understand . i thought the police said paul hornsby did it . tracy : he has an alibi for the attacks on bobbie and lucas . elizabeth : well , that 's creepy to think there 's more than one person attacking people . tracy : that 's why the hospital ca n't reopen . elizabeth : and the police do n't have any other suspects ? tracy : not that i know of . and while port charles is a lot safer with paul behind bars , it 's not enough to reopen the hospital . now , if you 'll excuse me , i need to commune with my martinis . elizabeth : well , it looks like rochester is more of a possibility than ever . maybe i should call patrick and robin , see if the hospital they co - chair in berkeley is hiring . franco : berkeley , california ? i know cameron would be happy to be living in the same town as emma . franco : okay , well , i do n't mean to disappoint cam , but i think i might have another solution that allows you to stay local . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm sorry . i ... uh ... i forgot you were here . how 's , uh , avery ? nelle : sound asleep . sonny : so , i guess you heard ? nelle : yeah . do you want me to go clean it up ? sonny : no . no , no , no , no . that 's -- i got my men to do that . you go ahead , you go home . i got -- i got to -- i 'm not very good company . nelle : you know , i think i should stay here for avery . you 've already got so much on your plate , and , you know ... i already have the fold - out bed set up in her room . sonny : yeah , thank you . nelle : why -- why do n't you get some rest ? you look exhausted . sonny : yeah . yeah , okay . hey , uh ... i 'm glad you 're here for avery . [ scene_break ] carly : you should go home . you should go home and be with sam and the boys . jason : no . i do n't want you to be alone . carly : josslyn 's here . and ... i need to go upstairs and be with her and be a better mother to her than i was to morgan . jason : hey , look . you can grieve any way you feel you need to grieve , but do n't lie to yourself . you 're a great mom . morgan knew it . your kids know it . carly : if i 'm such a great mom , why is morgan dead ? jason : [ sighs ] because something completely unexpected and terrible happened , and we have no idea how . we do n't know how to explain it . carly : it 's not really complicated , you know ? sonny put a bomb in a car that killed our son . jason : sonny called it off . carly : not in time . jason : no , not in time . [ sniffles ] but i 'm gon na ask some questions , and i 'm gon na figure out why these things happened the way they did . carly : it 's not gon na bring my little boy back . jason : i know it 's not , and i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] but maybe if i can find out why this happened even after sonny called it off , maybe it 'll give us all just a little bit of closure . [ scene_break ] julian : [ sighs ] hey . thanks for meeting me here . just wanted to check on your progress . curtis : you just hired me a few hours ago . julian : well , for what i 'm paying you , i have a right to frequent updates . so , do you have any details on how that bomb ended up in my car ? and better yet , who put it there ? curtis : i 'm working on it . julian : [ chuckles ] okay , well , i 'm gon na need some more assurances than `` i 'm working on it . `` curtis : my nephew tj was the last one to see morgan alive , so i 'm gon na start there . julian : hmm . now , that right there is a solid beginning ... because as long as i have the truth , i can take sonny down . i just saw sonny . the man 's a wreck . curtis : man . would n't you be ? julian : [ sighs ] curtis : if , uh , like you said , sonny put the car bomb in your car to explode , and he wound up killing his own son , yeah , i 'd be a mess , too . julian : my point is , his guard is down . now is the perfect time to investigate him . curtis : unless he 's too far gone to worry about the consequences and decides to just come gunning for you . julian : mnh - mnh . sonny 's a long way away from plotting another hit against me , trust me . curtis : and what are your plans for him ? julian : [ chuckles ] i 'm certainly not planning on killing sonny . since my recent activities almost landed me an extended stay in prison , it 's just not worth taking that chance . to tell you the truth here , curtis , what i really need to do is focus on rebuilding my life . you know -- alexis and ... my kids , my grandson . all of that . and making sure that sonny spends the rest of his days rotting in prison . [ scene_break ] sonny : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] [ grunts ] nelle : mr. corinthos ? can i come in ? sonny : yeah , sure . nelle : i made you some tea . sonny : thank you . nelle : just ... i was on my way to check on avery . i 'm all set to read her her favorite bedtime story if she starts to fuss . sonny : yes . morgan used to read her the stories , and ... he 'd act out every part , and she -- she loved that . nelle : well , i 'll do my best . it 's chamomile . it 's supposed to be calming . sonny : thank you . that 's nice . nelle : well , i 'll be with avery if you need anything . sonny : can you do me a favor ? nelle : mm - hmm . sonny : can you shut the door ? [ door closes ] sonny : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : i know your heart 's in the right place , jason . but i do n't care why it happened . i do n't care that sonny called off the hit . i do n't care why someone did n't get the message . i do n't care about any of it ... ... 'cause in the morning , i 'm gon na wake up and for a couple seconds , i 'm gon na forget that morgan 's dead , and i might even smile . and then it 's all gon na hit me -- that my baby is gone . and my husband 's responsible , so there 's -- there is n't closure for that . jason : is sonny the only one who 's responsible ? because i tried to save him , carly . i chased after him when he stole that damn car . and i talked to him on a cell phone , and i got him to trust me enough to pull over . he parked that car as i got out of mine , and i told him that i would come to him , i would get him help . he said no . he wanted to come to me . and i felt relieved 'cause he suddenly was n't manic . he was calm . i thought everything was gon na be okay . and it should have been okay . but then he got out of the car . and i should have been able to save him , and i 'm sorry i was n't . [ breathes deeply ] carly : did i ever tell you how happy i was that i named morgan after you ? jason : [ chuckles ] carly : do you remember that ? you were so against it when i told you the idea . you said morgan corinthos was too close to corinthos - morgan and that it would be confusing for everybody . jason : yeah , but you did it anyway . carly : of course , i did . [ chuckles ] you named michael after sonny , so i thought it was perfect to name morgan after you . jason : [ voice breaking ] i 'm sorry . carly : [ sighs ] look at that . now all we have left is a name . [ scene_break ] lucy : i really , really , really think you should reconsider my idea . tracy : enough ! i had no idea that beneath that flighty exterior beats the heart of a jungle animal laser - focused on her prey . lucy : really ? that kind of surprises me , 'cause did n't you learn that long ago when i stole your brother away from monica ? tracy : that was so long ago i actually forgot what you 're capable of . lucy : okay , well , then i suggest you take my proposal very seriously , because think about it -- if you buy the hospital , it would n't just be the quartermaine wing . it 'd be the quartermaine hospital . it would n't be gh . it 'd be qh . wait a minute . let 's go whole hog , shall we ? picture this . the tracy angelica quartermaine hospital ! [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you heard tracy . she made it very clear . the hospital ca n't reopen until the attacks on bobbie and lucas have been solved . franco : i heard what tracy said . but i might know someone who might know something about what really happened .

[ scene_break ] sam : can you tell me what happened ? i was watching the news , and they were saying what 's going on , but it was very unclear , and i was just wondering . jason : carly showed up . do n't ask me why . you know , durant saw her , asked her to come up to the podium , and she did . and that was a huge mistake , but i guess she felt like she did n't really have a choice , you know , at the time , and he started talking about how she was his beloved , newfound daughter , and carly was just stuck up there . i mean , i knew that she was furious at the time , but part of her was eating it up , having her father tell the whole world how proud he was of her . sam : you know , it 's interesting . you hate him because he 's hurting her . i mean , do n't get me wrong . john durant is a threat to everything that matters to you -- your business , your freedom -- but you want him dead because he 's using her . and sooner or later , he 's going to wind up breaking her heart . jason : and you know you and carly are alike that way . i mean , you guys act tough . you are tough , but underneath you 're very easy to lead , and it 's just wrong , sam , to take advantage of that . sam : maybe that 's why i feel safe with you , because i know you would n't . justus : mac should be in any second with paperwork . you 're being released . sam : i knew it ! i knew it . did n't i tell you ? jason : how 'd you manage that ? justus : i pointed out that they had no evidence and threatened a couple of lawsuits . but , you know , truthfully , i think the only reason he 's doing this is because he knows you 're going to run . so stick around , do n't go anywhere . jason : yeah , i 'm just going to go to the hospital . justus : ok . jason : can you take sam home ? justus : sure . sam : excuse me . jason : what ? you said that you would go home if i was released . sam : yeah , i did , but it was only -- jason : well , then , you have to keep your word , right ? sam : ok . this time . justus : all right . jason : thanks . sam ? thank you for staying with me . sam : you 're welcome .

[ scene_break ] lucky : i 'm not sneaking out . siobhan : you had a hankering for a pint , did you ? know how many times i 've heard that sorry excuse ? lucky : i need to find brenda barrett . siobhan : what makes you think this girl will be feeling up for a chat ? lucky : brenda has known me since i was a kid . if she can give me a lead on the balkan , i can give the info to interpol . this could all be over soon . siobhan : if you 're going to be walking out with nothing but regret , say it now . there 's no point -- lucky : i do n't have any regrets about sleeping with you , siobhan . i 'll be back right after i find brenda . siobhan : rome 's a big city . you 'll cover more ground with both of us looking . lucky : you 're safer here . siobhan : are you sure about that , are you ? the balkan 's men know we 're traveling together . i guess my life 's on the line either way . that makes it my choice . i 'm going with you . [ scene_break ] lulu : i thought that maxie was exaggerating when she warned me about the effect that brenda has on men . and then , i saw spinelli . carly : oh , gosh . spinelli acts like that for every woman who has a pulse . lulu : yeah , but this is more than just a regular obsession . she looks like some character out of his video game , and maxie 's afraid that he wo n't be able to separate fantasy from reality . carly : the reality is spinelli has a crush . it 's a lot different than knowing your husband and your ex - husband would cross a burning desert barefoot just to give brenda a cup of water . lulu : is it really that bad ? carly : yes , it 's really that bad . and she sits on her pedestal , and she acts completely oblivious . but she knows what she 's doing , and she 's enjoying every second . lulu : hmm . luke : hey , is that my gorgeous daughter ? lulu : dad ! oh , my gosh ! how are you ? luke : oh , i 'm fine now . nothing that a shower and shave ca n't cure . lulu : how did you know to find me here ? luke : well , actually i did n't . i 'm here to see my niece . caroline , beautiful as always . carly : [ laughs ] how much is this going to cost me ? [ scene_break ] jason : it 's pretty crazy . spinelli 's been doing a lot of research , and there 's not much out there . sonny : when i was in rome , two men tried to grab her outside of the hotel . she said it was charity work -- jason : that 's bull , because there 's a lot more to it . there 's no way a guy with the balkan 's power 's going to waste his time on one model . there 's got to be another reason . and he 's not trying to kill her . he 's trying to take her . so brenda knows something , or she has something that the balkan wants , but she 's not saying what it is . [ cell phone rings ] jason : i 'm sorry . got to take this . hey . what do you got ? [ scene_break ] brenda : you ever think about what happened ? dante : uh , i try not to . buried it pretty deep in the hopes that the truth would n't come out . it was n't easy , though . you 're in magazines . every time i see your face looking back at me , it would bring everything back . i guess you did n't have that problem . brenda : every time i see a cop , i think of you . i 'm really sorry . everything was my fault . [ knock on door ] sonny : brenda . it 's me . i 'm not leaving till you open up . [ scene_break ] lisa : being carted off to shadybrook for a psych examination was humiliating enough , especially the way people around here talk . i can only imagine the rumors that were started . patrick : it 's not a rumor . you kidnapped my wife and tried to kill her . lisa : look , i know that you need to believe that . i 'm sure it 's easier than facing the fact that your wife is delusional . but the truth is , i never did anything to robin . ask the police . there 's no proof to back up any of her outrageous claims . patrick : no , lisa . you 've already proven you 're smart enough to cover up the tracks . lisa : okay . so not only am i a stalker , but i 'm a professional criminal , too . i mean , come on , patrick . you know me . patrick : no , i do n't . i used to know you . but the lisa that i used to know would n't kidnap my daughter . she would n't try and kill my wife . lisa : okay . you need to stop blowing things out of proportion , 'cause that is exactly what robin wants . she started feeling insecure when she found out that we slept together , and that 's when she started accusing me of all those crazy things -- patrick : do n't even try and make robin the crazy one here . do n't even try and accuse her . lisa : i am not accusing . i am just pointing out that she 's -- patrick : lisa , you left her in a well to die . lisa : i found her passed out in a cabin . i tried to help her , and she ran away from me . patrick : you 're just lying . lisa : okay . robin wants you drowning in guilt and completely focused on her . and the sad thing is that you 've played into it . maybe you should look into therapy . it really does help . [ bangs ] robin : lisa 's cost you so much already . do n't let her ruin your career , too . [ scene_break ] sonny : open the door . i know you 're in there . dante : you know , you 're unbelievable . you must really think i 'm stupid . sonny : what the hell 's going on ? dante : ms. barrett here decided to call in and tell me she had information on who planted the bomb in john zacchara 's car . i get here to question her , and all she 's got to tell me is what a great guy you are . sonny : she did n't know i was coming here , dante . dante : oh , come on . you just happen to show up at the exact same time that she was pitching her reconciliation ? i do n't like being ambushed . sonny : that 's not what happened . dante : you know what , you can save it . i do n't want to hear anything from you unless you 're going to come clean about what happened the night johnny 's car blew up . sonny : i already gave my statement . what else do you want ? dante : ah , that 's typical . do n't try this again . otherwise , i 'll haul you in for interfering with a police investigation . brenda : i should n't have gotten involved . sorry . sonny : you 're always sure you 're going to make things right , 'cause that 's what you want . i wish you had the same belief in us . we could be together like we used to be . spinelli : despite the jackal 's best efforts to ensure the divine one 's safety , the identity of the phantom known as the balkan remains a mystery . however , stone cold -- dante : hey . tell your houseguest to stay out of my investigation , okay ? she can bat her eyes all she wants . i 'm not going to drop sonny as a suspect in a car bomb that almost killed my sister . and while you 're at it , tell ms. barrett that there is n't going to be any father - son reunion , okay ? so she should just mind her own business . [ door opens and shuts ] spinelli : it appears the divine one tried to foster accord between the betrayer and mr. sir . jason : that does n't make any sense . spinelli : oh . perhaps the jackal can offer some insight , for it 's been a pleasure and certainly a privilege to witness the divine one 's angelic nature first - hand . jason : yeah , but brenda 's been saying all along that she does n't want anything to do with sonny . why would she want to get in the middle of dante and sonny ? [ scene_break ] luke : caroline , i 'm insulted . you think i 'm here for a handout ? carly : that or a tab at the bar . luke : well , now that you mention that , i mean , a tall scotch could n't hurt . i am the guy that got you a 50 % -- carly : what do you want ? luke : i want a complimentary suite with an open - ended stay and a harbor view . carly : forget it . luke : okay . i 'll give up the harbor view if you throw in a personal masseuse . carly : why should i throw in anything ? luke : caroline , we 're family . carly : extended family . luke : hey , that still counts . we crawled out of the same gene pool . come on , baby . uncle luke needs a place to hang his hat . carly : and you have a big , empty house . why ca n't you stay there ? luke : the next time i go to that place , it 's to torch it . lulu : have you tried talking to tracy ? luke : oh , yeah . we had a really sweet , touching reunion , and i 've got a big goose egg here to prove it . it still hurts . no , i 'm afraid it 's going to take colossal groveling to unthaw my popsicle . so , in the meantime , i 'm on the street , and i 'm at your mercy , caroline . carly : fine . you can stay . luke : thanks . carly : it 's going to cost you a really big favor . luke : what kind of a favor ? carly : when i think about it , i 'll let you know . luke : wow . that cousin of yours . she 's a ruthless opportunist without even the slightest shred of sentimentality . where does she get it ? lulu : so , are you sure you 're okay ? because tracy said that you were in jail . luke : uh , yeah . i was . i knew she cared . lulu : mm - hmm . what happened ? luke : well , someone took exception to me wanting to help out a wayward soul . but that 's a long story . i 'll tell you about it sometime . i understand that you and your boyfriend visited lucky in dublin . lulu : yeah . yeah . that did n't last long because i knocked an interpol agent unconscious and got deported . luke : good for you . lulu : thanks . luke : [ laughs ] that 's my girl . what he 's involved in over there is really ugly . and i wish he 'd get out of it , but he ca n't by now because he 's in too deep . [ scene_break ] siobhan : we 're going in there ? lucky , in irish accent : why not ? siobhan : we 're likely to get chased out for trespassing . and i doubt it will please your friend the balkan . lucky : the key to fitting in is confidence , right ? let 's just act like you belong . no one will think twice about us being here . trust me . see ? we 're fine . siobhan : now what ? lucky : we improvise . so , you still have that camera ? siobhan : yeah . lucky : just give me a second . scusi ? parli inglese ? woman : better than you speak italiano . how can i help you ? lucky : uh , renata ? renata : si . lucky : i was hoping you could do me a favor . renata : you lost your key ? lucky : no . i 'm not a guest . i 'm a photographer , actually -- at least , i 'm trying to be . this is my first big assignment . i 'm supposed to shoot someone who 's staying in the hotel here . she 's a model . name 's brenda barrett . murphy sinclair 's girlfriend . i 'm just wondering , do you know , has she ever used this entrance ? [ scene_break ] patrick : she was looking for a reaction , and she got it . robin : why did you give her the satisfaction ? why could n't you just walk away ? patrick : i should have walked away , but i was trying to gauge her , see how long she 'd keep the sane act up . robin : well , the doctors at shadybrook sure bought it . declared her fit to come back to work . there 's just no criminal evidence to file against her , so as far as lisa 's concerned -- patrick : she 's playing it smart , robin . she 's trying to make you look out to be the crazy one . and i just do n't want people to start believing that . robin : steve has had his doubts . i hope you do n't . patrick : of course i do n't think you 're crazy . robin : well , if lisa keeps this up , i might be . [ scene_break ] luke : oh , thank you , james . carly : just so we 're clear , this is temporary . luke : just till i get back on my feet . thanks . carly : you 're comped within reason , so you may want to pace yourself . luke : i 'll sip slowly . carly : and if you try and sell my half of this hotel out from under me , you 'll be out of here . luke : caroline , i 'm a man of my word . carly : i hope so , 'cause i do intend to collect . luke : do you have any glimmer of an idea about what this future favor might entail ? carly : i may need you to grab a high - maintenance model and throw her off the nearest bridge . luke : oh . sounds fun . [ ethan exhales ] luke : rough night at the roulette table ? ethan : actually , these did n't come from a customer . they 're courtesy of you . [ scene_break ] mayor floyd : detective . ronnie : is there any reason we 're meeting here and not the station ? mayor floyd : yeah . i ... have reason to believe that detective falconeri is a crooked cop on sonny 's payroll . i want him off the force . you 're just the man to help make that happen . [ scene_break ] [ door shuts ] [ door opens ] michael : bad day ? dante : what the hell 's the matter with you ? i put myself on the line . i begged the judge to give you a second chance . and this is how you repay me -- you get busted for a parole violation ? michael : i was there to see jason . dante : look , i do n't care if you 're there to see the pope . the judge tells you to stay away from sonny , or you go back to prison . you miss pentonville that much ? michael : look , i made a mistake . dante : no , michael , a mistake happens one time . claire 's caught you in sonny 's office twice now . how many chances you think you 're going to get ? michael : sorry , but i was n't thinking . dante : well , you know what ? you better start thinking , okay ? because sooner or later , you 're going to make a mistake that 's going to come back and bite you in the ass . and when that happens , there 's not a damn thing anyone can do to save you . [ scene_break ] jason : max , did you let dante in here ? i told you , no visitors for brenda . what , do you just drop her off and leave ? come on . all right . what did you find on the balkan ? spinelli : well , it was no small feat , considering the law abiding one 's propensity for firewalls and such . but i was able to gain access to certain fortified servers and discovered a list compiled by law enforcement agents of five names , all of whom are suspected to be the balkan . jason : okay . those five , i want you to do a search . get me everything you can . and please , just try to narrow it down for me . spinelli : okay . that might be a problem , even for a skilled sleuth such as i . given that there 's no point of origin for the balkan and no single current base of operations for his business ventures , i do n't know what to look for . jason : this guy has gone out of his way to protect his identity . spinelli : might that not be a motive for the foul fiend 's sinister attacks on the divine one ? jason : i think brenda knows who the balkan is . [ scene_break ] brenda : sorry . i should n't have gotten involved . your relationship with your son is your business . i just thought that , you know , maybe if i could get you guys to come back together , that -- sonny : that i 'd give up on you ? brenda : yeah . sonny : why do you deny that there 's something that , you know , we -- brenda : i 'm not denying that . i 'm just saying that as soon as jason catches this guy , i have to go back to rome . sonny : well , you can run all you want , but you ca n't -- brenda : i 'm not running . i 'm just saying that i live in rome , that 's all . sonny : you do n't want to be happy ? brenda : yeah . i was n't happy with you . sonny : [ sighs ] it was n't all bad . brenda : it was bad . you know , we bring out the worst in each other eventually . sonny : that was then . eight years later , we 're -- brenda : but i feel like i 'd have to give up everything that i worked for in the past 8 years . sonny : i do n't want you to give up your life . i would want -- brenda : my life does n't work with you in it . sonny : you were scared , right ? i 'm scared . but i 'm saying this time , we can get it right . brenda : we 've tried so many times to get it right . it always ends the same for us . sonny : i love you , right ? you love me . why do you want to fight your feelings ? come on . just -- brenda : do n't touch me . sonny : what ? brenda : i do n't want you to touch me . sonny : no , it 's okay . just -- brenda : please . i do n't -- sonny : what 's wrong ? there 's something wrong .

[ scene_break ] luke : johnny zacchara 's men gave you the thumping ? ethan : yeah . they were on loan to the trujillos . johnny did n't know they 'd be sent after me . luke : well , i 've pissed off plenty of people , pal , but i do n't know no trujillos . you sure it was about me ? ethan : they were on loan to an overseas associate who calls himself the balkan .

[ scene_break ] ethan : i take it this balkan bloke rings a bell . luke : what did the goons say he wanted ? ethan : information on a ronan o'reilly . they seem convinced that you knew him . luke : i do . so do you . lucky 's been posing as o'reilly for weeks now . ethan : what 's the angle ? luke : interpol sent him undercover to try and id the balkan . so now , he 's posed as ronan o'reilly , hired assassin , and is wandering around europe with a big bull 's - eye on his back .

[ scene_break ] steve : so , what do you think about this whole robin and lisa situation ? epiphany : i think it 's a damn shame that we 're talking about other people 's issues when there 's work to be done . steve : yeah , well , it 's my job to make sure the patients in this hospital receive the best possible care , and if there 's someone on staff who 's not capable of giving it , i need you to tell me about it . epiphany : robin and lisa are good at what they do . i 've never heard any complaints from patients about the care they 've received or their bedside manner . can i get back to work now ? steve : i get it . i get it . you do n't want to be involved in this , and i really appreciate that . but i also know nothing happens in this hospital without you hearing about it . is there any reason to believe lisa 's done the things robin 's claiming she 's done ? epiphany : look . dr. niles is your typical surgeon -- cocky and confident as they come . she and drake jr. share that trait . but is she crazy ? not that i 've ever seen . steve : robin made some pretty serious accusations . i 've never known her to lie . epiphany : look , people tend to throw good sense out the window when they 've been hurt , especially by somebody that they love . steve : well , that 's the problem . robin and lisa both love patrick , and i 'm not sure who 's acting out . lisa : hey , um , i know i 'm not technically supposed to be back on duty until tomorrow , but there 's something that we need to discuss , the sooner the better . [ scene_break ] lucky , in irish accent : you ca n't go back to ireland . the balkan 's men might still be after you . siobhan : you ca n't just lug me around out of guilt or pity , whatever it is you 're feeling . lucky : i do feel guilty about involving you in all this . siobhan : so why did you ? lucky : i suppose i could n't help myself . i want to be with you , even though it complicates everything . so stop your whining . give us a kiss . swavek : time 's up , o'reilly .

[ scene_break ] jason : i want you to sit down . brenda : i 'd rather stand . jason : i want you to sit down . so i 'm going to ask you again what you know about the balkan and why he 's trying to grab you . nobody knows this guy 's face . nobody knows this guy 's name . he 's gone to a lot of trouble to keep it that way , brenda . it does n't make any sense that he 'd be coming after you . you live in the spotlight . you 've got cameras all around . what do you know about this guy that he 's worth risking calling that much attention to himself ? brenda : i need to go back to rome . jason : no . if you were in rome , you 'd be dead . you understand that ? brenda : yes . jason : i 'm trying to save your life , because the balkan is not going to stop coming after you , and somebody 's going to get hurt , or somebody 's going to get killed because you 're not telling me the truth , and i 'm tired of you lying to me . brenda : i hate you . sonny : i did n't want to leave her like that . jason : good . yeah . you deal with her . sonny : brenda ? you all right ?

[ scene_break ] swavek : the balkan wants an update . lucky , in irish accent : i 've got information on the model . if he wants it , he can call me . swavek : this is not how it works . lucky : the balkan pays me for my discretion , all right ? so i 'm not going to share with you . i 'm not going to share with low - level lackeys . now step aside before you draw the wrong kind of attention to us all . [ siobhan gasps ] lucky : you really want to do this ? swavek : the balkan does n't like your attitude . or your new association . he needs to be reassured of your loyalty . lucky : and how 's that ? swavek : a test . this one is going to die , and you are going to kill her now . [ scene_break ] dante : i just took the worst moment of my brother 's life and threw it back in his face . lulu : come on . you 've done everything that you can to help michael through this nightmare . you have a right to be frustrated . he violated his parole . dante : this had nothing to do with him . i was pissed off , and i took it out on him . i 'm an amazing , amazing brother . lulu : stop . stop beating yourself up . look , if you were any closer to perfect , i would have to break up with you for making me look bad by comparison . dante : ms. barrett ?

ethan : well , what do you think ? [ chuckles ] yeah , you 're right . probably not much good against ghosts , huh ? [ chuckles ] luke : what are you doing with that ? [ scene_break ] maxie : okay . you 're gon na be okay . [ grunts ] you have to be okay 'cause i really have to be somewhere right now . oh ! oh , my god ! oh , my god . anthony : [ chuckles ] it 's me . you thinking about throwing me back ? [ scene_break ] patrick : wow . steve : wow . patrick : this is fantastic . steve : this is amazing . patrick : nice , huh ? steve : yeah . elizabeth : still hoping maxie will show , are n't you ? it 's okay . i know you wish she would have changed her mind and come out for your big night . robin : this is such a beautiful boat . do you think he has any idea about the surprise ? patrick : no clue . and i ca n't wait to see his face . robin : i know . [ both chuckle ] [ scene_break ] johnny : what the hell did you just do ? lisa : suppose i should feel something ? johnny : [ chuckles weakly ] i was just thinking the same thing . i can barely feel my legs . i think it 's spreading . lisa : i only gave you what i gave myself -- time . johnny : to do what ? [ scene_break ] ethan : i paid a little visit to wyndemere . luke : why ? ethan : i was talking to lucky . luke : oh , great . you were talking about the good old days and the dragon lady 's house of horrors ? ethan : actually , we were on our knees staring at two hydrocodone pills that had rolled under the table . luke : i see . and that led to a conversation about addiction , the curse of genetics , meaning me ? ethan : you ... laura ... how much lulu 's like her . you know , it 's uncanny . lucky told me i would do a double take when i saw her . luke : what ? you could n't leave it alone ? you had to see for yourself ? ethan : yes . [ chuckles ] [ sighs ] talking to lucky made me realize how little i understood . i was curious . luke : curiosity killed more than the cat . you know , when i was a kid , my old man had a bottle of booze that he left on the kitchen table next to an empty jelly jar . his permanent setup , his permanent fifth food group , breakfast , lunch , and dinner . the sun would come through the window and hit that bottle and just make it glow , like amber . i used to think maybe it was the glow or maybe it was the shine that drew him back to the bottle all the time . eventually , my curiosity got the better of me . ethan : and you had to taste it ? luke : yeah . i can still remember how it burned my throat . i was like 9 or 10 . it set me on fire . flipped my guts over . ethan : such a tender age . luke : my knees turned to rubber and i went to the floor . that 's how the old man found me . ethan : what did he do ? luke : he laughed his ass off . and then he thumped the crap out of me for wasting his booze . ethan : and then he hid the bottle . luke : no . no , he left it right there on the table as a lesson ... a warning . a lot of things in life are like that , dodge . they 'll suck you in and drown you . let that be a lesson to you , too . [ scene_break ] captain : right this way , everyone . we have everything set up in here . patrick : yeah ? olivia : thank you , dear . matt : i - i swear , i am a big , fat hypocrite . i - i - i just accused maxie of doing something that was very self - centered , and i - i pretty much went off on her , and now i 'm doing the same exact thing . elizabeth : what did you do ? matt : i - i coerced you into coming to this thing with me . the idea of coming here by myself to this so - called celebration and listening to my brother do his best impersonation of a person who 's very genuinely happy for me -- elizabeth : stop . stop . he is genuinely happy for you , and i wanted to be here , okay ? matt : okay . well , just -- things are hectic for you right now with lucky , and so i understand that . elizabeth : tonight is all about you . getting published is a huge deal , and i 'm honored you would invite me to such a wonderful gathering . matt : yes . well , we will see about that . come on . [ chuckles ] [ indistinct conversations ] patrick : hey , there he is . [ cheers and applause ] man of the hour . matt : yes , yes . hey . thank you . captain : i 'd like to officially welcome everyone on board . i 'm captain macleod , and this is first mate briggs . robin : hi , briggs . captain : now , we 're expecting smooth sailing tonight . the weather is clear . seas are calm . and if you have any questions or if you need anything at all , please feel free to come see me in the wheelhouse , or you can always track down briggs . briggs : hors d'oeuvres in about 15 minutes once we 're on our way . but first , champagne . [ laughter ] captain : and with that , i 'll turn things back to dr. drake . patrick : thank you very much . let 's hear it for the captain and his first mate . robin : cheers ! [ laughs ] patrick : [ sighs ] well , little brother , i honestly did n't know you had it in you . [ laughter ] and that says much about my , uh , feelings as a big brother as it does your ability to keep a secret . the biggest breakthrough in cancer research in 20 years ... a process that directly targets and shrinks the tumor . i 've been trying to find the right adjective to describe that level of accomplishment , the passion , the commitment , the dedication it takes to -- matt : and the luck . the luck . do n't -- do n't forget about the luck . patrick : there 's luck involved in all big accomplishments . there are others that came before you that tried and failed , but you took that torch and you kept it burning , and that 's what 's made the difference . because of you and your accomplishment , cancer patients around the world will be forever changed . so , congratulations . let 's bring it in . congratulations , dr. matt hunter . steve : cheers . robin : cheers . olivia : congratulations . patrick : oh , wait , there 's one more thing . robin , please ? hmm . robin : of course . your gift . matt : oh . wow . thank you . who wrapped this ? patrick : emma did . she 's amazing . [ laughter ] matt : better than me , that 's for sure . elizabeth : what is it ? matt : it 's , uh -- it 's research from -- from the ' 70s . uh ... patrick : it 's the first line of research when it began in its earnest . matt : this is -- it 's my father 's . uh , how -- how did you -- patrick : wait . there 's more . there 's more . should be coming right about ... [ cell phone rings ] patrick : now ? matt : seriously , bro ? how do you do this stuff ? hello ? dad ? n - n - n - no , i - i - i 'm here . [ stammers ] i was speechless , so ... yeah . yeah , i - i 'm looking at it right now . it 's -- it 's -- it 's awesome . i ca n't wait to actually sit down and pore through this in detail . [ laughs ] okay . yes , th - thank you . thank you . um , i - i - i really ... it 's -- it 's nice to hear from you . i - i appreciate it . uh ... hope to talk to you soon . okay , bye . steve : so ? what 'd he say ? [ light laughter ] matt : he said he was n't gon na blow a bunch of smoke up my ass , telling me what i already knew about the research . [ laughter ] patrick : sounds like him . olivia : and ? matt : he said he was ... proud of me . patrick : so am i . [ scene_break ] maxie : i - i was n't gon na throw you back in , but you probably should n't give me any ideas . [ sighs ] god . why do you have to be here right now ? i mean , i have someplace that i really , really need to be right now . anthony : well , i 'm real sorry about that . maxie : spinelli must have gotten the directions wrong . anthony : consider the source . kid 's lost a couple sprockets . maxie : thanks to lisa niles , that psycho bitch ! [ sighs ] you know what ? spinelli 's back to normal . he 's okay . i mean , as normal as spinelli gets . but , so , what were you doing in the water ? no , wait . do n't tell me what you were doing in the water . i do n't want to know what you were doing because i ca n't afford to be accompliced . wait . um ... you ca n't be accompliced if you did n't know what you were doing , right ? [ scene_break ] johnny : what did you do ? what was that ? what did you give to me ? why the hell are you doing this to me ? i was gon na help you . lisa : it 's true what they say about people in a coma . well , at least it was for me . i could hear things . i was there . hear whispers , intentions . i 've given the speech thousands of times to family and friends at bedside , told them to tell their expressionless husks of loved ones , uh , that they could possibly hear , uh , they could understand . tell them that you 're there . remind them of all the things they have to live for , to fight for . never believed a word of it until now . it would have been really nice to have someone say those things to me , someone to , uh , live for , to come back to . johnny : stop this . please . lisa : all i heard was ... empty . just like every time i 've been with a man -- empty . except for when i was with patrick . johnny : antidote ? lisa : for you -- time . for attraction , for love ... there is none . johnny : you do n't have to do this . lisa : mm - hmm . i heard you the first time . it was a pretty speech . hit all the right notes . sincere , even . you 're falling on deaf ears . you 're 0 for 2 in the savior department . johnny : [ sighs ] but you 're throwing your life away . for what ? lisa : whatever this is that i 'm living is not life . [ clears throat ] johnny : that 's not true . lisa : johnny , i know that it tortures you that you could n't pull your sister back from the edge , that you so wanted me to be a success story . but the old lisa , the pre - frankenstein me , before your father injected me with whatever it was , i probably would have crumbled into your arms and let you hold me and take me and save me , but the new me does n't want that . she does n't seem to want much of anything . johnny : it 's not too late . lisa : uh , for what ? redemption ? a normal life ? a - a career , husband , family ? i mean , look at me . johnny . this is what your father brought me back for -- to create chaos , revenge . johnny : you ca n't punish patrick just for loving somebody else . lisa : [ sighs ] patrick drake , campus dog , dedicated lover , at least for a few hours . he was void of feelings at one time . uh , he claims that once he met robin , all of that changed . i 'm simply going to make sure that he never forgets her , that robin will be in his thoughts for as long or as briefly as he lives . johnny : lisa . damn it . do n't do this . [ scene_break ] maxie : okay , i really got to go , but , uh , i ca n't just leave you here . anthony : whoa . slow down , cookie . who are you calling ? maxie : johnny , your son . that okay ? anthony : not exactly the cavalry , but i guess it 'll work . [ cell phone ringing ] [ johnny breathing heavily ] maxie : it 's still ringing . anthony : oh , let it go . he probably would n't help me anyway . that kid can be so damn moody sometimes . [ cell phone ringing ] [ johnny panting ] [ ringing continues ] [ ringing stops ] maxie : voicemail . um , okay . well , i really have to get on that boat , but , um , i - i guess i could call you a cab on the way . anthony : what 's so important about that boat anyway ? maxie : oh , there 's this serial cheater on board , and she 's already got her grabby , greedy eyes on my boyfriend . anthony : who , the geek ? maxie : oh , no , that 's spinelli , the jackal , the assassin of cyberspace . he 's not my boyfriend . we do n't really feel that way about each other anymore . [ scene_break ] spinelli : chocolate truffles . they 're a - a french classic , something i thought might appeal to your gourmet taste . or at least produce some pleasant endorphins to help mitigate the audacity of the jackal 's plan . [ sighs ] sea fennel pistachios . um , a favorite of the ancient greeks , um , pliny and dioscorides . i believe that they had a simulating effect on the libido . no , i - i - i should not mention to maximista that i 've laden our basket full of aphrodisiacs . but it 's not nece -- necessarily scientifically proven . [ chuckling ] at the end of the day , they 're just seeds and nuts . in matters of love , all is fair . [ scene_break ] luke : laura was like that for me . she intoxicated me , set me on fire . [ sighs ] i found my poison in a bottle of scotch , but i learned pretty soon not to mess with old tim spencer 's stash . ethan : well , it 's never hard to find another source . luke : no , it 's easy . it 's easy . curiosity turned from just wanting to taste it to needing it , getting satisfaction from it . [ sighs ] years came and went . women came and went . and then laura came . and she changed everything . [ sighs ] i tasted her , and i had to have more . i was completely hooked . so i kept going back , and she let me ... and that 's when she found her poison ... in me . it was good at first , her and me . it was good for a long time . she loved me -- really loved me , and that was the mistake . love like that is always a mistake , love that blinds you and makes you do things that you would n't normally do . you see , when somebody like me finds that kind of love , it puts up this perfect reflection , and it kind of sucks you in . you start to believe it . but it 's a lie . [ scoffs ] and it has to be shattered because it 's an illusion . ethan : and that 's how you found my mother . luke : sometimes things are created by chance . i made you , laura made nikolas , kids who were made from need , not love . ethan : hmm . that is my birthright . luke : it 's the truth . it 's better to grow up disillusioned and find your happiness along the way than the other way around . that 's what happened to lucky . he had this perfect relationship in his head , this perfect relationship that his mother and i were supposed to have had , that everybody thought we had . that 'll never work . ethan : i agree . luke : i saw lucky . ethan : i know . luke : it seems like no matter what i say to him , all my words get warped by his need to prove something . [ sighs ] so far , i 've managed to leave my daughter alone . sometimes i think it would be better not to stay here , to just disappear again . ethan : no . you should stay . it would n't be right for lulu to lose two brothers and a father in one year . luke : two brothers ? are you going somewhere ? ethan : not me . lucky . he 's already gone . [ scene_break ] anthony : i 'll be fine . you go find your boat . maxie : well , i - i ca n't leave you like this . i mean ... can i leave you like this ? i - i really have to get on that damn boat . anthony : hey , listen . you 've got me this far . that 's a lot further than a lot of people would . go . maxie : a cab ? anthony : [ laughs ] go . you 've been an angel . fly . maxie : you sure ? anthony : you go stop that interloping hussy from staking her claim . you 're gon na do that , right ? maxie : you 're damn straight i can ! anthony : attagirl . go . hey , blondie . maxie : yeah ? anthony : i could have drowned . thank you . maxie : i 'm not really the bitch everybody thinks i am . anthony : i owe you one . i always return a favor . remember that . maxie : good to know . [ scene_break ] [ johnny breathing heavily ] [ scene_break ] elizabeth : patrick loves robin more than ever . patrick : lisa , robin is not the crazy one . you are . elizabeth : what you 're doing is despicable . patrick : i will never work with her again . olivia : so , i guess wrecking patrick drake 's marriage was n't enough for you ? steve : it might be best for all concerned if you transfer to mercy . [ engines whir , bell tolls ] [ indistinct conversations ] steve : looks like we 're shoving off . olivia : oh , my god . what a beautiful night . i 've always loved the water . steve : you know what i love ? olivia : huh ? steve : i love the fact that you 're here with me to enjoy it . mm . patrick : okay , enough . relax . elizabeth : oh . patrick : really ? olivia : what ? uh , we 're over the age of consent . do you guys have a problem over there ? patrick : no , no problem . it just looks like you 're about to swallow each other . we still have three hours left . the fun is just beginning . [ laughter ] cheers . [ scene_break ] luke : so , lucky took off . well , i guess i 'm gon na get blamed for that , too . ethan : no . i think you 'll be taking the credit . luke : how does that work ? ethan : well , you set the example , you and laura . you proved that even a great love can end badly . lucky realized that he was heading down the path to repeat your history , so he took off . [ scoffs ] he wanted to get out before he and elizabeth wreck each other . luke : did he tell lulu ? ethan : no . i only found out by accident . we stopped by lucky 's apartment . luke : `` we `` ? ethan : laura and i . when he was packing up his bags . luke : does anybody else know ? ethan : elizabeth . [ chuckles ] she did n't take it well . luke : no . she would n't . ethan : she got very emotional about it . luke : well , lucky and elizabeth have been going back and forth for years , ever since they were kids . ethan : elizabeth 's made it very clear that lucky 's not good enough for her . luke : yeah , she has made it clear , otherwise she would n't have kids with other men . but he keeps forgiving her . it takes two to make that kind of dysfunction . ethan : maybe . but it surprised me that after everything the two of them have been through , she 's still ... clinging on . luke : [ sighs ] so did laura . hope can be brutal , man . you hold on to it too long and something just ... snaps . and then it ca n't be put back . it can never be put back together . [ scene_break ] maxie : no , no , no , no . no . this can not be happening to me . [ horn blares ] maxie : ugh ! of course . because you had to help out anthony zacchara , always doing the right thing . god . stupid , stupid maxie . ow . stupid . spinelli : uh , maximista , are -- are you well ? maxie : yes . no . no , not really . spinelli : uh , perhaps the jackal could be of assistance . [ scene_break ] steve : thank you . it 's a nice party . but you are still upset with me , are n't you ? about that new hire in pediatrics . robin : i just wish you would have come to me before you filled the position . steve : i apologize for overstepping , but once you meet her and you see the department start running like clockwork , you are gon na be thanking me . i guarantee it . robin : so does this gift to medical science have a name ? steve : maggie . margaret . dr. margaret wurth . robin : you sure there 's no personal bias at work here ? i mean , the fact that you worked with maggie in memphis is not clouding your judgment ? steve : i promise you i am being completely objective here . patrick : [ clears throat ] i 'm not gon na apologize for interrupting because you guys were talking about work . and i know you 're chief of staff , but you 're not allowed to talk about work on this boat . it 's only about matt . that is inexcusable . olivia : okay . i , uh -- i hate to break this thing up out here , but i am gon na have to steal back my date because my champagne and i were getting lonely over there . steve : i am sorry . robin and i were just -- patrick : they were talking about work , and that is unacceptable . only talk about matt and his accomplishment , right ? matt : yes , although i do n't know if i can take any more . all right , maybe a little more . just a little more . steve : no more work . cross my heart . olivia : yeah ? well , just to make sure that that happens , i thought you might need something to occupy your mind and your very capable hands . steve : you have something specific in mind ? olivia : i do . in fact , something very , very specific . patrick : ooh . what do we have here ? [ olivia laughs ] steve : that 's -- that 's my guitar . olivia : yes , it is your guitar . i thought about asking . i might have smuggled it on board . i know how much you musicians are sort of moody and how shy you are about performing in front of people . elizabeth : shy ? did you say shy ? you 're not talking about my brother . steve : here we go . olivia : what ? what , what , what , what ? no , this is something i need to hear , i think , right ? elizabeth : there is nothing -- nothing shy about steven . in fact , we 've had to keep him from making a spectacle out of himself many times . steve : where do you get your stories ? elizabeth : mom , dad , and i know i was young , but i remember . steve : you do n't remember anything . elizabeth : yes , i do . steve : no , you do n't . dad 's famous for exaggerating . olivia : okay , wait , wait , wait . pay no attention to the handsome , tan guy in the suit . i want to hear all about this story right now . matt : yeah , this is getting good . come on . come on . lay it on us . elizabeth : okay , which should i tell . there are so many stories . steve : i know where you work . elizabeth : all right , well , how about i tell them the one -- dad 's favorite . steve : like i have a choice ? robin : that 's the one . elizabeth : we were coming out of church and steven was so little and he decided to debut his favorite song that he had been obsessing about . steve : i was n't obsessing about a song . elizabeth : yes , you were . please , you sang that song every day all day . i was so annoyed . steve : that was a good song . elizabeth : yeah , it was , except for your version . olivia : [ laughs ] matt : it was air supply , was n't it ? was n't it air supply ? robin : reo speedwagon ? patrick : `` jesse 's girl . `` olivia : what was it ? what was it ? elizabeth : how about dolly parton 's `` 9 to 5 . `` [ laughter ] patrick : nice . matt : that 's awesome . elizabeth : he got up on the ledge of a planter and sang his little heart out in front of the whole church . what was it , something like , `` a glass of ambition `` ? steve : all right , what do you say we just do n't go over all the lyrics ? olivia : honey . honey . i 'm sure that you were very good and very cute , and i think this is the perfect opportunity for you to show how much progress you 've made over the last couple of years . there 's absolutely no excuse for you to not play the -- what ? what ? you 're not gon na deny your co - workers at general hospital . i know that you must have played for your memphis staff all the time . you probably had nurses drooling all over you . steve : you love to put me on the spot , do n't you ? olivia : i love it . steve : all right . fine , fine . all right . this is something i 've been working on . [ laughter ] so bear with me . she 's got a gift for doing things that 'll dizzy your head she got a way of making you second - guess what you said she 'll pick you up off the ground , knock you down , turn around , and do it again and again let 's get this straight and make no mistake i love the way she 's always driving me crazy take away the sun , the moon , the stars reach into my chest and take my heart steal away the days and leave the nights tell me all that 's wrong is really right take away the song inside my head tell me what i said 's not what i said oh , but i do n't care so go ahead and try but you wo n't change my mind she 's all i 'll ever need , 'cause she 's perfectly ... [ scene_break ] luke : any idea where your brother went ? ethan : siobhan wrote him a letter -- a last request . luke : sounds ominous . ethan : yes . elizabeth was unhappy about it . she thought that siobhan was manipulating lucky from beyond the grave . she thinks that siobhan is trying to screw them up more than they already are . luke : that 's some parting gift . ethan : it gives lucky something to run towards instead of away from . he just wants to do something to honor siobhan . luke : i liked siobhan . she craved the open road . she did n't tolerate hypocrisy . she made her mark . things that die before their time tend to do that . and things at wyndemere just die , period . what the hell are you doing with this , anyway ? ethan : i wanted to see her . when i found her , she was on the floor , damaged . she had this -- this gash . so i fixed her up . i 've thought about taking her back , but we might want to keep her close . [ scene_break ] maxie : you 're sure you 've done this before . spinelli : yes , of course . maxie : and you 're positive you can get me to that party boat , which has a motor , by the way . you are aware of that , right ? spinelli : this dinghy might not be as impressive as stone cold 's speedboat , but it can surely get us from point `` a `` to point `` b. `` maxie : okay . as long as you say so . by the way , you sent me to the wrong pier earlier . you said 52 . spinelli : oh . well , i mean the location of the pier could have been changed due to scheduling conflicts or shifting of tides . you know , in october , the port charles tides -- maxie : that is fascinating , spinelli , but right now , i need you to focus on getting me to that party boat before the champagne starts flowing and things start happening . i also have to write this very important article for crimson and everything i need is on that boat . spinelli : fear now , maximista . your wish is my command . next stop , pleasure boat of celebration . maxie : [ chuckles ] this is really sweet of you to do for me . [ scene_break ] steve : take away the song inside my head tell me what i said 's not what i said oh , but i do n't care this world can try , but you wo n't change my mind she 's all i 'll ever need , 'cause she 's perfectly imperfect to me she 's perfect to me patrick : yeah . matt : just a little something something . robin : awesome . steve : thanks . robin : so sweet . briggs : sorry to interrupt , but the hors d'oeuvres are ready for you in the main cabin . patrick : great . thank you very much . who wants to eat ? robin : me . i 'm hungry . olivia : come here . and , uh , we 'll talk about your obsession with dolly parton later , okay ? [ both laugh ] olivia : i 'm gon na get some more champagne . [ cell phone rings ] olivia : okay . steve : mm . [ scene_break ] luke : this was painted in some dark tower on the cassadine compound when she was a prisoner there . take it back where it belongs and seal it up with the other ghosts . ethan : more ghosts . luke : wyndemere is a monument to pain and suffering . something in there seeps through the walls and it will follow you home like a stray cat ... because it 's curious . it wants to know why you 're alive and it is n't . and it will suck the life out of you ... leaving you a hollow shell . [ scene_break ] maxie : i think this is the wrong way . are you sure you know where we 're supposed to be headed ? [ scene_break ] anthony : [ groans ] that bitch has n't seen the last of me . [ scene_break ] olivia : [ sighs ] okay . got it . [ scene_break ] patrick : oh . i think yours was better than mine . what was it ? robin : the stuffed mushroom . do you have any more ? patrick : you gon na feed it to me now ? robin : yes . i like to share with you . patrick : that is pretty good , actually . robin : mm - hmm . [ sighs ] patrick : we need to do this more often . robin : what ? cruise the harbor ? [ chuckles ] patrick : it 's amazing out here , but just in general . more fun activities , me and you . emma , of course . robin : right , in all of our spare time . patrick : what 's the point of working and slaving and killing ourselves if we ca n't appreciate it ? like now -- that mushroom cap was so good , i 'm gon na go get some more so i can come back and feed you . robin : mm . sounds good . patrick : i 'll be back . oh , thank you .
