[ scene_break ] jason : i know -- i know that you can raise danny -- on your own . sam : but you want to take care of us anyway ? because that 's who you are ? jason , if you think that somebody needs you , you 're gon na be there for them . i just -- i do n't want to be an obligation . jason : sam , you 're my -- you 're my wife . and i should have shown you . i - i should have loved you instead of shutting you out . sam : just , i was so angry . i was so angry , and i kept digging a hole , jason , and i -- i did n't know how to get back to you . jason : so is that still how you feel ? sam : no . no , i 'm not angry anymore . i 'm just really , really confused . jason : me too . you remember that story you told me -- you know , about what our lives would have been -- like if the baby had survived ? sam , we can have that life you dreamed of . there 's nothing in the way . sam : yes , there is . [ scene_break ] starr : if you tell me that you 're innocent and i believe you and i find out that you lied , i 'm done . okay , i 'm not gon na get past it . you and i will be done . do you understand me ? now you tell me -- did you know that you sent téa home with sam morgan 's son ? todd : yeah . i did . i knew .

[ scene_break ] dante : epiphany . epiphany : if you 're looking for your mother , dr. webber just took her out for a stroll . dante : oh . how 's she doing ? epiphany : it 'll take more than a fall down a flight of steps to stop that woman . dante : and heather ? epiphany : still comatose . dante : huh . let 's hope she stays that way and the city does n't get stuck paying for her to be committed . epiphany : was there something else ? dante : uh , actually , yeah . there is .

[ scene_break ] duke : i 'm sorry that you 've suffered so much , but -- does n't change the way that i feel about you . anna : yes , but it should change it because i 'm a completely different woman to the one that you were in love with . duke : you 're exactly the woman that i remembered , anna . and that 's all i had were memories of you -- of your hair , your eyes -- your smile . anna : oh . duke : we fit together , anna . anna : oh , stop it . that 's enough . duke : is it ? i 'm here now . we love each other . it 's -- it 's our anniversary , anna . anna : of a marriage that ended years ago . duke : not because we wanted it that way . we -- we were torn apart . our lives were blown apart . but now we have a chance to start all over again . anna : it 's not that simple . duke : because of spencer ? [ scene_break ] trey : whoa , wait . i thought you were on your own . joe jr. : not completely . trey : so someone 's helping you . joe jr. : well , kind of a silent partner , except he 's not that silent anymore -- you know , someone with money and connections who put this whole plan in motion . trey : oh , yeah , this wonderful plan to use me and kill my wife ? joe jr. : no , the plan was -- the plan , son , was to take sonny down -- to make him pay for all those years that he was living off of our territory , our money . trey : yeah , how does killing kristina solve any of that , dad ? joe jr. : 'cause all of his wealth was put into kristina 's name . if she had died , it would have went to her and then to her husband -- to you . he took care of that . trey : oh , your silent partner ? joe jr. : like i said , he 's a very powerful guy . trey : give me a name , dad . who is this person ? [ scene_break ] jason : i 'll accept -- whatever you decide . i just need to know . is it -- is it mcbain ? sam : no . i mean , i care about him , but he has nothing to do with this . jason : then who ? sam : my son . i love you , jason , but my son has to be my first priority . jason : a - are you afraid that he wo n't be safe with me ? sam : no . no , i know you would protect him with your life . i know that . but my son needs more than that . he needs for you to love him . jason : i do . sam : i 've got to ask you something , and i -- i 'm not doing it to punish you , but it 's just -- it 's really important . you said that you were afraid that when you looked at my son , you would always see franco . jason : i was wrong about that . sam : you were honest . but then , on the roof last night , you told heather that you loved him and you could be his father . did you say that because you wanted to save him or because you meant it ? [ scene_break ] carly : so where was the baby when heather kidnapped him ? michael : llanview , pennsylvania , with a woman named téa delgado . carly : todd 's ex - wife ? michael : he was driving her to the hospital the night of the storm , and their car broke down . she had her baby at a bus stop . carly : it was her baby that did n't make it . michael : yeah . carly : oh , god . michael : and somehow , during the confusion , heather switched the babies . carly : god , how awful for téa . and todd . i mean , i know how badly he wanted to help her . she took the wrong baby home ? [ scene_break ] todd : starr , there are things that you do n't understand . the whole night was out of control . starr : you are unbelievable . no matter how high the body count , it 's just never your fault , is it ? todd : this is not my fault . starr : do you know how many times you have sworn to me , to mom , and to aunt viki that it was n't your fault , only to get caught , come clean , and swear that this time it 's different . todd : but this time , it is different . starr : is it ? goodbye . todd : i just got caught up in something . wait a second , starr . hold on a minute . look , i - i 'll tell you whatever you want to know , okay ? i 'll answer all of your questions , and then you can decide if you 're gon na believe me or write me off . starr : talk . [ scene_break ] carly : you know , todd is always saying how selfish he is . but i know he was really worried about téa . this is probably really hard on him , and he 's probably blaming himself . michael : from the things starr has told me about her dad , he seems pretty messed up . carly : i know , i know . and whatever happened between him and téa , i know that he still cares about her , so this is probably hard on both of them . almost feel guilty for being so happy for jason . michael : do you think jason and sam are gon na get back together ? carly : i hope so . michael : since when ? carly : since that 's what jason wants . look , sam gets on my nerves -- i do n't think she deserves jason -- but i 'm gon na do everything in my power to push them together . michael : you know what jason would really like ? carly : he would tell me to stay out of it . michael : so maybe you should . carly : if jason convinces himself that sam and the baby are better off without him , he 's gon na walk away . and i have to stop him . want to come with me ? michael : not a chance . i got to go see starr . téa is almost like a mother to her . [ scene_break ] todd : téa 's freaking out , so she begs me to do something . i wrap the kid in a scarf , and i take off , but we 're in the middle of nowhere , and -- i mean , there 's a parked car , but it 's locked . and then i see a light . and it 's a cabin . i get to the cabin , and there 's heather . and heather says she 's great with kids , so i give the child to heather , and heather does everything she can . she does the best that she can , but -- and then she takes off to bury anthony zacchara , and i 'm -- with this child , my nephew -- who never had a chance , never took a breath -- and i 'm saying myself , `` what am i going to do ? how am i going to tell téa ? `` starr : why did n't you just tell téa ? todd : téa lost victor because of me . starr : it was awful , but it was n't your fault this time . todd : i was n't gon na be the one to tell her that her son was gone . and then sam morgan barges through the door , passes out in the middle of the floor . and i hear a baby outside . and i go onto the porch , and there 's this beautiful , healthy child . téa appears out of nowhere -- and she 's filled with hope , and she 's filled with love , and she starts reaching for this kid , and she starts calling him her baby , and i panic . i freeze -- me . i do n't have any words . [ sighs ] and she bursts into tears , and she says , `` thank you . `` and she says that if she had lost the child -- she would not have been able to go on . so i -- i gave her the baby . starr , i lie all the time . i lie to everyone all the time . i did n't mean to lie this time . i did n't . it just happened . [ scene_break ] jason : i do n't blame you for having doubts . i let -- i let my hate for franco blind me to something that i 've always known . loving a child is n't about dna . i want to -- i want to be there for danny . every day . i want to help him learn . i want to help him grow . sam , i want to be his father . sam : [ sniffles ] the worst thing for danny would be to try this -- and have it not work out , jason . jason : i know -- i know -- i know that i hurt you . and i 'm never gon na make that mistake again . i will never leave you or danny . i want to love you both forever , sam . [ scene_break ] dante : so , uh -- my request is of a personal nature . epiphany : in what way ? dante : in the way that it , uh , involves me personally . epiphany : look , detective , i 'm not psychic , so unless you want to bring your mother in for a consult -- dante : no , no ! no , absolutely not . that 's not , uh -- look , uh , lulu and i are thinking about taking that next step in starting a family . epiphany : well , congratulations . dante : thank you , thank you . i mean , we 're actually not thinking about it . we 're actually actively trying , and when i say `` active , `` i mean we 're making a dedicated effort to , you know -- but -- well , it 's just kind of taking a little longer than anticipated , and i wanted to know if my -- epiphany : so you need a sperm count . dante : [ chuckles nervously ] yeah . [ scene_break ] luke : where the hell has he been all this time , and why now ? why has he broken cover and showed up here ? lulu : have you asked him ? luke : he 's here for anna . lulu : you 're not gon na let that happen . luke : hell , no . well , he says they 're still married and that i lost her the minute he showed up . [ scene_break ] anna : after robin died , luke was a -- he gave me unconditional support . he was there at the funeral . he helped me through the first agonizing weeks , and -- over time , he became very important . where it 's going ? i -- i 'm not even sure . but we are more than friends . satisfied ? duke : not exactly . anna : well , i do n't know what more i can say . duke : i say good riddance to him . i do n't think he 's good enough for you . [ scene_break ] luke : i just do n't get it . why is a smart woman like anna not more suspicious of this dude calling himself lavery ? lulu : well , he 's her ex . they have history . he has n't lied to her . luke : not that i can prove . yet . i mean , it just sounds like they might still be together if he had n't been kidnapped . luke : well , he was n't just kidnapped , according to him . get this -- he says he was abducted from the witness protection program , snatched from wherever he was relocated and left to rot in a turkish prison . does that sound plausible to you ? lulu : uh , yeah , there 's a lot of holes in the story . but what 's the alternative ? luke : only one -- duke ai n't duke . [ scene_break ] go ! jason : i love you -- and danny . just i hope it 's not too late for you to believe that . sam : he 's probably gon na be hungry -- when he wakes up . i 'm gon na go get a bottle . jason : okay . come here , little guy . oh , yeah . you know what ? uh , i owe you and your mom an apology . it was n't fair to you . and i do n't know if she 's gon na believe in me again . or if i 'm gon na get the chance to watch you grow -- just be there for you . carly : hey , jason . jason : hey . carly : is this him ? jason : this is him . yeah , he 's sleeping right now . carly : oh ! oh , my god . he 's beautiful . jason : you want to hold him ? carly : no , he looks so perfect and peaceful in your arms . oh , you know , you 're the best father ? do you believe that ? please tell me you 're going to be this little baby 's father . jason : that 's , uh -- that 's up to sam . carly : up to sam ? if she lets you go and she deprives this beautiful little boy of your love , she 's a bigger fool than i thought . jason : carly , can you not fight for me ? carly : you gave her the biggest miracle . you found her baby after heather gave him away . look at the ear . jason : why is it only heather ? carly : what are you talking about ? jason : your friend todd was involved . [ scene_break ] todd : what would you have done , starr ? you gon na tear an infant from téa 's arms ? starr : you had sam thinking that her baby died . did what i went through -- losing hope -- did that mean anything to you ? todd : what happened to you hurt me worse than anything that had ever happened to me before . starr : then how could you inflict that pain on someone else ? todd : heather lied to me . she told me that sam had gone to that cabin to abandon her child . starr : so you just believed heather ? todd : what other reason could a woman possibly have to be in a shack in the middle of the woods , in the middle of the night , in the middle of a storm ? she left her child on a porch ! i gave her a job ! starr : you gave her a job for a baby . todd : i do n't know why i did that ! why would i let sam get so close to me ? she almost figured everything out . why would i take such a stupid risk ? starr : because maybe that 's what you wanted . maybe you wanted to get caught . todd : i -- why would i want to get caught ? starr : so that the baby could return to its real mother . todd : well , baby 's home now . and téa hates me again . everything is right in the world . starr : right . so you 're going to confess . are n't you ? todd : could n't do it . [ sighs ] i just could n't tell téa . hoping you wo n't , either . [ scene_break ] epiphany : i 'll stand guard . dante : that supposed to make this easier ? epiphany : look , you go in there , do that . i will have a lab technician take it and run an analysis . completely confidential . dante : thank you . epiphany : go ahead , detective -- fill ' er up ! [ scene_break ] lulu : if duke 's not duke , then who is he ? luke : here 's what i know . duke lavery was in the witness protection program . the feds faked his death with an explosion . and then sometime later -- i 'm not sure when -- some guy named jonathan paget made contact with anna . he did n't look like lavery , but he seemed to have all duke 's memories . he claimed that he had had plastic surgery so he could get back to her . then lavery 's enemies found him , shot him , and he died in anna 's arms . now , you 'd think that would be the end of the story , right ? but no . now this joker shows up . lulu : so then that paget guy was lying . luke : i 'm thinking maybe the paget guy was the real deal and this current incarnation is the phony . lulu : then how did he get duke 's face ? [ scene_break ] anna : when you met me -- duke : i was a confirmed liar . anna : you manipulated me . duke : i certainly tried to . but then i fell in love with you . i turned my life around . i confessed everything . anna : well , not completely , but i know you wanted to . duke : enough to get you to trust me . i 'll do that again . i promise you . you , uh -- enjoy your anniversary breakfast -- mrs. lavery . anna : wait . [ scene_break ] joe jr. : it 's better that you do n't know who we 're working with . that would n't go over well for anyone . trey : come on , dad . if this guy is so bad , if he 's the one that came up with this entire plan , then turn him over to the cops . cut a deal . testify against him -- joe jr. : no testimony , not against this man . you have no idea what he 's capable of . [ knock on door ] michael : starr , you there ? it 's michael . come on , i know you 're in there . [ scene_break ] dante : [ exhales sharply ] epiphany : mm . that was quick . dante : that was n't -- epiphany : oh , no . my lips are sealed . dante : [ clears throat ] epiphany : [ laughing ] [ scene_break ] lulu : so far we 've got scottish gangsters , a mob hit , one , maybe two fake deaths , a turkish prison , and now a doppelganger . luke : [ laughing ] it 's just not a believable story . lulu : or it 's so crazy it could be true , but you do n't believe it . luke : well , baby , there 's no way to verify it . you know ? there are no dates . there are so many red flags on this play , it 's like may day at gorky park . lulu : well , if you do n't believe duke is really duke , then how are you gon na prove it ? luke : with a dna test . [ scene_break ] anna : i hate to see food go to waste . you might as well stay for breakfast . duke : i can not vouch for the cuisine . you know , next time , i 'll probably cook it myself . anna : oh , that 's right . yeah . i was so surprised when i met you at the policeman 's ball -- that the man in the elegant tuxedo is also a chef . duke : do you remember this , as well ? anna : oh . duke : i thought it reminded you of your childhood . anna : yes . but now -- it has a far less comforting associations , i 'm afraid . you see , that 's my point -- we -- we do n't know things about each other . duke : well , let 's not focus on the past . let 's just think about us now . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] michael : starr , you okay ? joe jr. : do n't give me up , son , please . michael : i know about your friend téa and the baby . i just want to make sure everything 's okay . trey : michael , starr is not here , okay ? michael : i 'll wait . trey : i 'm in the middle of something . michael : yeah ? what ? is my sister here ? kristina ? trey : michael , just go home . michael : kristina ! [ scene_break ] carly : how is todd involved in all this ? jason : [ breathes deeply ] he was in the woods that night . he took téa delgado 's baby and went looking for help . carly : yeah , but it was heather who switched the babies . jason : yeah , but todd could have known about it . carly : he could have ? jason : we do n't know . the cops are questioning him . carly : now you 're gon na tell me to stay away from todd ? jason : you 're gon na do what you want , like always . carly : [ stammers ] it 's weird , all right ? but you and todd are nothing alike but you are . jason : how ? carly : he does n't judge me . i tell him all the horrible things i 've done , and he does n't even blink . and the night that i found out the truth about johnny , i was devastated , i was humiliated , and i wanted to run straight to you , but your phone kept going to voicemail . jason : i know . i was right in the middle of the kidnapping thing . carly : i understand that , but i went to todd , and -- he let me talk , and he listened , and he let me vent , and he even made me laugh , so if you 're telling me now that he 's involved in all of this and he 's a baby stealer -- jason : we do n't know that he 's guilty yet . carly : we do n't know he 's innocent . you think i 'm lying to myself about todd ? jason : [ breathes deeply ] i mean , todd could be lying to you . you 're not -- you 're not trying to convince yourself to feel something you do n't feel . carly : no , i -- no , i -- i like him . i do . i mean , he 's my friend , almost . jason : what -- what is `` almost `` ? carly : i only have one friend , you know -- the person who will never give up on me , no matter how much i deserve it -- who will always catch me when i fall . jason : you do n't need me to catch you . you 're a very strong woman . carly : that 's because i have you to believe in me . i love you . i love you so much . and i want you to be happy . will you do that ? please , will you be happy with this little baby ? okay . i , uh , came to , uh -- see your beautiful little boy . you 're a mom now , and you need to do the right thing . you need to let jason be a part of his life . [ scene_break ] todd : i 'm not asking you to lie for me . starr : a lie of omission is still a lie , dad . todd : whatever . what possible good could come from you telling the truth ? sam already has her kid back . starr : and téa lost the baby that you tricked her into loving . todd : téa still has danielle . the only possible outcome is that there 's another trial , and i go to prison , and john mcbain smiles for the first time in his life . do you want any of those things to happen ? starr : this is not up to me . todd : yes , it is . everything they have on me is circumstantial . starr : heather ? todd : heather 's a comatose lunatic . the only testimony that can put me behind bars is yours . starr : i can not believe that you are doing this to me again . todd : i did a stupid thing . i can do better . i will do better . starr , do n't turn your back on me . dante : what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm sorry . sam : it 's okay . she 's entitled to her opinion . jason : yeah . but it does n't matter what carly or anyone else thinks . this has to be your decision . will you let me be danny 's father ? [ scene_break ] starr : i came here to visit my dad . dante : oh . well , you did n't sign in , so i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . starr : no , no , that 's fine . i 'll go . todd : thank you , starr -- for coming to visit . [ scene_break ] michael : well , now i see why you did n't want to let me in . joe jr. : you should have listened to my boy . michael : you son of a -- trey : hey , back off ! back off ! it 's not like that ! michael : yeah , why do n't you tell it to my brother , the cop ? ! trey : no ! [ scene_break ] todd : i do n't know what took you so long . carly : i did n't know you were expecting me . todd : i -- was n't . i -- i 'm glad you 're here , though . it 's nice to see you . you look great . carly : thank you . todd : sorry you have to see me like this , here . carly : not a problem . you know , it used to be every time jason was arrested , i would come down here and i would scream and yell until they released him . it was actually his lawyer who did all the work , but i made everyone 's life so miserable here , they were happy to see him go . todd : oh . any chance you could do that for me ? carly : yeah , if you tell me something . did you have anything to do with taking sam and jason 's baby away from them ? [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] dante : yeah , michael , what 's up ? [ scene_break ] joe jr. : i 'd hang up if i were you . [ scene_break ] lulu : wait , dad . you know dna tests are n't foolproof . just ask elizabeth . luke : well , they 're better than nothing . that and fingerprints . maybe i can prove this guy is or is n't duke lavery . otherwise , anna 's just fallen into the arms of a lying stranger . [ scene_break ] duke : a toast . anna : do i have a choice ? duke : to anna -- anna , my inspiration . and to tonight -- the beginning of -- many , many wild and wonderful things . shall we toast ? anna : do i have a choice ? [ breathes deeply ] duke : you can deny it , anna . you can refuse to say the words . but i know you feel exactly the same way as i do . we 're soul mates , you and i . anna : i never could turn you down .

[ scene_break ] steven : you know , i give you too much credit . i knew you hated john durant , but i never thought you 'd risk shooting him in public . did you just assume you 'd get away with that ? i mean , what did you think , you could just ditch the gun and then just creep away , or did you not care ? did you not care because the law enforcement in this town is so corrupt or incompetent that you think you can just get away with any crime ? jason : you saved emily and morgan 's life , so i 'm going to actually answer you . i did n't shoot durant . steven : and i 'm just supposed to believe that ? jason : no , no powder residue on my hands or my clothes . steven : you could 've worn gloves . jason : i did not shoot anybody . the shooter left the gun in my pocket . i reached for my cell phone and that 's when i found it . steven : are you trying to tell me that you were set up ? jason : that 's right , and whoever shot durant is still out there . steven : i 'm going to personally run the forensics on this case and i am going to go over everything as many times as it takes , and if you 're telling me the truth , the evidence will prove that , but if you are lying , i will prove that and i swear to god i will bury you . sam : why do n't you back off ? i mean , really , what is it with the pcpd ? jason was released from custody , so of course you 're going to try and provoke him so he 's going to fight back and you can lock him up again . steven : i 'm just looking for the facts . sam : yeah , sure you 're looking for the facts . why do n't you go tell d.a . lansing that jason is innocent and if he is harassed by one more cop or doctor , we 're suing ! steven : i 'll be sure to give him that message . jason : are you out of your mind ? [ scene_break ] ric : too bad you did n't give god specifics on where all the men you killed were buried . was she religious , our ma ? i just find it interesting , if not somewhat ironic , that you are so devout . i just figured she was the one who taught it to you . sonny : we went to church every sunday ; prayed together every night . ric : was that the lord 's prayer , hmm ? `` forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us , lead us not into temptation `` ? sonny : god did n't deliver her from evil . but she still prayed for his help and his guidance . ric : here you are doing the very same thing . you know what , when we 're young , we try so hard to please our parents . sometimes that all turns , you know , we go the opposite path . we deny everything that they ever stood for . i hope that michael chooses to do that one day when he realizes that you 're the thug that you are . sonny : i do n't give a damn what you hope for , ric . ric : but you do give a damn about your son . michael is a little boy . and you are the whole world to him . you are his hero , sonny . you do n't need to ask god for some kind of answer . you already know what it is . you have to go to michael and you have to lie to him , because telling that child the truth would ruin his life .

[ scene_break ] lois : ok , obviously i missed a beat here because i thought that you and diego were n't really getting along . brook lynn : well , things change . diego : yeah , sometimes before you know it . lois : ahem . brook lynn : you know , maybe it 's genetic . i mean , you like bad boys , i like bad boys . alcazar 's a criminal , and so is diego . diego : hey . brook lynn : what ? lois : ok , i 'm getting the picture here . brook lynn : you know the other night at the carnival , ma , all diego could talk about was how many times he was almost arrested . lois : wow . what a romantic guy . diego : look , this thing 's getting a little weird for me . brook lynn : you know the feeling , right ? there 's something -- oh , i do n't know -- magnetic about that kind of rebellion . it 's deep -- lois : ok , look , do you want to cut to the bottom line here or should i ? brook lynn : bottom line ? lois : if i give you my word that i will never see alcazar again , you will ditch diego . am i right ? brook lynn : here 's your chance .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : helena knows we slept together . nikolas : she 's bluffing . elizabeth : i do n't know how she figured it out or how we gave ourselves away , but she knows , and she 's going to tell lucky . nikolas : she has no proof . they 're just empty accusations . do n't let her rattle you like that . elizabeth : no , she accused me with such absolute certainty . nikolas : but you denied it , right ? elizabeth : of course i did , but she can see right through me ! nikolas : elizabeth , she is a master at playing mind games , okay ? if she senses that you 're feeling guilty , she 's going to try and exploit that . elizabeth : oh , yeah , okay , that 's like telling a guy who 's facing a wild animal , `` do n't let it sense your fear or it 'll attack you . `` nikolas : okay , you 're stronger than you think , okay ? elizabeth : if helena tells lucky ... nikolas : hey , she has no credibility with him . if she tells him , he 'll just laugh in her face . elizabeth : and what if he comes to me ? nikolas , i have lied to him so much . i ca n't do it again . nikolas : so what are you going to do ? are you going to tell him that we slept together ? [ scene_break ] johnny : you 've been looking for proof against claudia for months now and you 've come up with nothing . let it go . jason : oh , so now all of a sudden you 're trying to tell me to stop . johnny : she 's my sister . i do n't like her being targeted for something she did n't do . jason : claudia 's been covering her ass from day one . she 's reckless . johnny : she 's always been reckless , jason . if she would have done something , you would have found out about it . jason : she 's guilty , johnny . johnny : great . you just keep feeding this obsession . jason : okay , you know your life would be a lot easier and i 'm guessing that you would probably be even a little relieved . [ scene_break ] dominic : i do n't know if you 're desperate or crazy , but you wo n't be getting pregnant with my kid . claudia : because of your father ? dominic : well , he knocked her up and never knew , never bothered to know . claudia : well , that 's better than having a cold , heartless bastard for a father , like mine . dominic : you know what , maybe you should go get counseling instead of getting pregnant and trying to have a baby and pass it off as being sonny 's . claudia : maybe you should drop your pants and quit stalling . dominic : clearly you 're not getting it . i 'm a good catholic boy . if i ever have a kid , i 'll be married to his mother . claudia : that 's so sweet and quaint . aww , who knew you were the nice white picket fence kinda guy ? dominic : well , now you know . claudia : yeah , it 's all very quaint and lovely , but it 's beside the point . you do n't have a choice . dominic : you 're right . doing what you want me to do is not an option . claudia : okay . well , then sonny 's going to find out olivia 's been lying to him since the moment you came to town . [ scene_break ] olivia : claudia is your wife because of a business deal you made with her father when you took over his organization . sonny : claudia agreed because she understands who i am and what i do . olivia : oh , right . so , what , now you guys , you 're soulmates now ? sonny : she does n't talk me down . she does n't keep telling me that i 'm a criminal . olivia : of course she does n't , because she 's done worse things than you 're ever gon na do . sonny : you know what , you went on and on about how claudia and i deserve each other . so i actually listened to you , and i accepted it . so whatever poison you got to tell me , i do n't want to hear it . olivia : sonny ... it 's true . sonny : what ? olivia : it 's true that i 'm disappointed in you , but that 's because i saw how much potential you had . you got the smarts and the confidence and the ambition . i mean , you could have done anything . you could have done great things . but even now , after all the choices you 've made , i still ... i still choose to believe that you 've got a code . okay , a fundamental decency that i am sorry to tell you , claudia does not have . she 's cruel , and she 's -- michael : what gives you the right to badmouth my dad 's wife , huh ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : we are the people that lucky loves and trusts most in this world . whether we tell him the truth or not , we 've betrayed him on so many levels . nikolas : you and lucky are getting married . you 'll eventually put it behind you . elizabeth : i do n't know if i can . nikolas : since when ? just earlier this afternoon , you were so determined to make it work with him . elizabeth : i just do n't know that i can go through with this . nikolas : okay , what exactly is it you 're saying ? elizabeth : if i marry lucky and hide the fact that we slept together , i 'll be living a lie and setting lucky up for a world of hurt . nikolas : okay , so what , you 're going to call off the wedding ? elizabeth : i love him , and i always will . but the not the way he wants me to . and as hard as it 's going to be to break off the engagement , it 's going to be worse if i marry him and pretend to be happy . nikolas : okay ... elizabeth : because lucky deserves so much more than that . nikolas : okay . so how are you going to explain it to him ? are you going to tell him there 's someone else ? [ scene_break ] helena : my , such handsome young men . it 's rather a shame there has to be such tension between you . lucky : me and ethan ? we 're like this . helena : oh , come now , lucky . you know you 've always felt slighted by your father . and now to discover that luke 's philandering has produced this -- this smashing young brother , who he clearly fancies over you , well , i would imagine it 's quite a thorn in your side . lucky : helena 101 . she finds out where you 're vulnerable and she works it however she can . ethan : oh , yeah . she 's pretty obvious about that one . helena : i 'd like those few private moments with ethan now . please close the door on your way out . ethan : i ca n't possibly imagine what you could have to say to me in private . helena : i need to tell you a secret . yes . it 's something so explosive that your brother 's happiness could literally be in your own hands . ethan : whatever secret you 're selling , sweetheart , i 'm not interested . helena : that 's very disappointing . well , it seems you 'll have to learn the awful truth from someone else . lucky : i 'm sorry to spoil your fun . let 's get out of here while we still can . ethan : yeah , that 's the best idea i 've heard all day . [ scene_break ] sam : all right , spinelli ran a trace at the address that we found , and it 's a house in the low - rent part of town . jason : is it vacant ? sam : um , it was vacant while ian was in port charles , but now it 's occupied . jason : well , does devlin have any ties to -- ? sam : no , not that we know of . but the house had to be used for something . jason : [ sighs ] maybe storage . i mean , since there 's no records tying devlin to the house , he could hide whatever he wanted and not have to worry about it being discovered . sam : yeah , including the recording of claudia . jason : okay , i 'm gon na go check it out . sam : okay . jason : you have time to go ? sam : yeah . i would n't miss it . [ scene_break ] olivia : i 'm sorry . i did n't know you were listening . michael : oh , so if you had known , you just would have waited and then trashed claudia then ? olivia : um , it 's complicated , michael . michael : no , it seems pretty simple to me . i think , you know , you guys grew up together and now it just upsets you that he 's with claudia . sonny : hey . i do n't like the way you 're speaking to her , okay ? you got ta show olivia some respect . the fight that she has with claudia , there are two sides and claudia has been wrong plenty of times . michael : no , claudia is your wife . dad , you 're the one who always says , `` stick up for family no matter what , `` right ? sonny : okay , that is true . that 's why you got ta stop getting in claudia 's face . olivia : fine . i can do that . i 'm sorry that you 're in the middle of this , michael . you 're a good kid . and it speaks well of you that you would stand up for your stepmother like that . um ... your oldest boy is something to be proud of , sonny . sonny : okay , even though i do n't like the way you spoke to her , i do appreciate that you stood up for claudia . michael : i mean , i 'm glad that you defended claudia , too . i just , i do n't know , i always had this feeling that there was this distance between you guys . sonny : there was , for a long time , but you know , she 's trying her best to be a good wife , and ... i appreciate that . [ scene_break ] claudia : okay , picture this . dominic : hmm ? claudia : me walking into sonny and letting him know that olivia falconeri has been lying to him since the minute her kid came to town , that kid being you . his trusted soldier . his trusted soldier with a fake name and a hidden agenda . you 're screwed . dominic : [ chuckles ] i can see that you would really take a lot of joy out of that , but you 're not going to do it . claudia : all of your leverage is gone , dante . dominic : but so will yours be when you spill your news to sonny . claudia : but i 'm not about leverage . i 'm about payback . dominic : no , think again . you 're holding the truth over my mother 's head so she stays away from johnny . how long do you think it 'll take for her to get back into johnny 's arms when she finds out you told sonny the truth about me ? claudia : i will deal with the fallout when it happens . dominic : uh - huh . keeping johnny away from my mother is way more important to you than any pregnancy could ever be . personally , i think it 's a little twisted to be so involved in your brother 's love life , but hey , i 'm not judging . i 'm not too crazy about johnny being with my mother either , so you know what ? thank you . i owe you one . [ scene_break ] tracy : you have come up with some ridiculous stories over the years , but this one takes the cake . helena : well , how on earth luke could remain married to your unpleasant self , i ca n't -- tracy : bats in the belfry . cassadines in the dungeon ? helena : oh , valentin unfortunately was never in the dungeon . tracy : no , 'cause he was working for you . helena : oh ! tracy : husband , make yourself useful . stop at the hardware store on the way home , please , and pick up a wooden stake . we 're gon na need it . helena : your strident , everly - increasingly off - putting spouse has totally misread the situation . luke : oh , i do n't know . spanky is pretty savvy . if she smells a rat , i start setting traps . helena : now , look , we have been allies in the past . i mean , it would be very disappointing to think that you could turn on me . tracy : well , you 'll have plenty of time to cry about that when you 're out of here . i 've arranged for you to be released from the hospital . there are orderlies coming to escort you out . helena : what , do they intend to leave me lying in the street ? tracy : what a nice idea . i 'm sorry i did n't think of that . luke : tracy ... you would be prepared to evict a gravely ill woman ? tracy : absolutely . luke : nice ! helena : luke , i suggest that you explain to your antagonistic mate why you need me . luke : who says i do ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i have to tell lucky i ca n't marry him . i should have never agreed to it in the first place . i just did n't know how to say no . nikolas : i 'm sorry . i -- i know you wanted to make him happy . elizabeth : and cameron and jake . i mean , they adore him . he 's been the greatest father in the world . god , how did this happen ? why did this happen ? why ca n't i just give lucky what he wants , what he deserves ? [ sighs ] nikolas : yeah . where do you think the two of you will go from here ? elizabeth : i do n't know . i do n't know . things were so perfect before , when we were just friends and raising the boys together . and now ... god , i hope he forgives me . i just , i hope things can go back to normal . nikolas : once you tell him , you 'll be on your own , you know . elizabeth : yeah . free to be with whoever i want . but it ca n't be you . [ scene_break ] dominic : whoa . either you really like the ravioli , or you came to check up on me . lulu : it 's ravioli , but since you 're here ... dominic : you want to know if i slept with claudia . oh , it 's making you crazy , thinking about the two of us up in that hotel room -- lulu : oh , my gosh , if you want to sleep with dangerously whacko sluts , be my guest . dominic : oh , now that i have your permission ... lulu : so ? dominic : so what ? lulu : so did you sleep with claudia ? dominic : no . i turned claudia down , and thank you for helping me with that decision . lulu : well , what did i do ? dominic : you told me to not compromise myself . and i like to think that i 'm a guy with integrity , so your words kinda hit home . lulu : well , i 'm glad you managed to dredge up a shred of common sense . and sleeping with claudia would have been a bad idea anyway , even if sonny was n't your boss . dominic : true . even though we both know the only reason why you were trying to talk me down is so you would n't lose me to another woman . so i 'm all yours . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] [ claudia sighs ] johnny : what are you doing here ? claudia : oh ... johnny : what the hell 's going on ? claudia : i had a less than satisfying encounter with dominic pirelli . johnny : oh , okay , i do n't want to hear about that . claudia : no , actually , john , you do . dominic -- johnny : no , i do not want to hear about it . i meant that . dominic 's obviously pissed you off somehow , and whatever evil revenge plot you 've got going on , you 're on your own . claudia : okay , cool , fine . i will finish up the champagne and let myself out . hmm ? mmm . want some ? johnny : okay , let me guess . all right , that 's good . dominic , what , you were going to sleep with him and you did n't ? or let me guess , you did ? claudia : ah , no . right the first time . dominic would n't sleep with me . [ scoffs ] now he 's gon na pay . johnny : okay . i 'm obviously missing something here . why would you risk the consequences of cheating on sonny ? claudia : sonny would n't give me a baby . i thought dominic would .

[ scene_break ] johnny : okay , i know you 're still grieving over your baby , claudia , but this is not the way to go about solving it . i think you know that . claudia : actually , at the time , it seemed like a workable plan . johnny : okay , but sonny did n't want another child . and i probably would say that it 's not such a bad idea . claudia : you know what , this is perfect because you and sonny loathe each other , but you both agree that i would suck at being a mother . johnny : claudia , it 's not you . it 's the life , all right ? you and sonny , you 're in this business , okay ? and it 's not the place to raise a kid . look at us ; we know that better than anyone else . claudia : johnny , come on . we both had absent mothers . our father is a certified whack job . this is completely different . sonny and i would be loving parents . it 's -- johnny : okay . but you can have all the bodyguards you want . you can pack your house full of security cameras , whatever . but things happen when you least expect it . look at michael . claudia : oh , you know , why do you always bring that up ? why do you always bring that up ? you know what you act like ? you act like i wanted michael to get shot . no , and i did n't . ian devlin is the one who shot him . my part in that was so small , and you know it ! johnny : i know . okay . my point is , claudia , you and sonny will always have enemies . that 's the way it 's going to be . it 's the nature of this business . be glad that you do n't have a kid that you have to look after all the time and protect . olivia : no , i 'm sorry , but i refuse to believe that i 'm never going to have a child . johnny : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry , getting pregnant with somebody else 's baby and trying to pass it of as sonny 's is silly . it 's stupid . and you 're asking , begging for misery . claudia : fine , i know . i 'm ... so i 'll just , uh , build a life with sonny . i do n't know , maybe eventually convince him to have a child . johnny : you 're setting yourself up for disappointment again . claudia : no . i do n't think so , john . sonny used to hate me , remember ? he does n't anymore . need a little patience and time . i 'll have everything that i want . you know , i 'll have a partnership with sonny , power and prestige , a child of my own , as long as you love me . that 's all i 'll ever need . [ scene_break ] olivia : you want me to convince you that i deserve to live . anthony : you have to look at it from my perspective . my only son is infatuated with you . he is in constant conflict with sonny over you , and also with his snake of a sister . now , if i got rid of you , i would be eliminating the source of the problem . you know , now that i hear it out loud , i 'm liking it even more . olivia : you do n't scare me , anthony . i got no problem going to the cops with your threats . and as far as protecting john , i can assure you that he is doing just fine . anthony : oh , you are hardly a reliable source . olivia : seeing you here and knowing claudia , johnny really is a freakin ' miracle , that someone so decent and loyal with such a good heart would come out of your gene pool , it really just blows my mind . and the obstacles that he has had to overcome to be his own man and not some twisted tool ? johnny is going to get all the love and support that i can possibly give him . anthony : [ chuckles ] you got guts , kid . i like that in a woman . you 're a little long in the tooth for my son , but you 're hot . i think you 're good for him . so you get to live -- for now . [ scene_break ] dominic : so now that i 've refused claudia , you and i can go out on that date you promised me . lulu : what is it like to live in a delusional world ? dominic : was i hallucinating that part where you agreed to go out with me ? lulu : oh , i 'm sorry i have to break it to you ; you 're not as irresistible as you think you are . dominic : yeah , probably not . but , hey , at least you 're having fun shooting me down . lulu : yes , almost as fun as getting hit by a car . [ chuckles ] what , is something wrong ? dominic : no , my ego 's a little bruised , is all . tends to happen when i hang out with you . lulu : right . dominic : maybe we could hang out a little more often ; you can come to appreciate me somehow . lulu : yeah , i think i mentioned that i 'm here for the ravioli . dominic : right . i 'll talk to the chef ; i 'll get you extra sauce . [ scene_break ] helena : valentin is the most lethal cassadine you have ever encountered . luke : well , maybe he was -- when he was alive . helena : oh , i assure you , he is -- luke : helena , the whole story was too suspicious . i did some research . yes , mikkos had a bastard son named valentin . you had him sent away . he came back and wreaked all kinds of nasty vengeance on the family , and you being the forgiving stepmother that you are , had him murdered . valentin cassadine has been rotting in his grave for decades . he can do no one harm . helena : it 's true , valentin was believed to have died , but the body in the ground is not his . luke : do you have proof ? helena : no . but i 'm certain that valentin was poisoning me . oh , look , clearly he 's been in hiding . he 's been waiting till the time was right , and now he 's seeking vengeance on us all . tracy : he was a handy scapegoat for you when you wanted to manipulate my husband . helena : oh ! luke : you 're losing your touch , my lethal flower . happy trails . helena : ignore my warnings at your own peril , luke . this is far from over . [ scene_break ] nikolas : and my feelings for you ... is the only thing that 's made me feel alive since i lost emily . elizabeth : a relationship based on betraying lucky will never bring us happiness . nikolas : [ chuckles ] no , i suppose it wo n't . so our one night together is all it can ever be ? elizabeth : in retrospect , probably was n't such a good idea , thinking kissing each other would be a harmless experiment . [ both chuckle ] nikolas : did n't know what we were starting , did we ? elizabeth : or what we might be losing . i mean , we 've been friends forever . nikolas : i know , i think maybe that 's why i did n't realize it before . it 's because you were always just my ... friend , someone i turned to for advice . elizabeth : yeah , yeah , same here . i mean , you 're the only one i can talk to about my mixed feelings for lucky ... nikolas : yeah . elizabeth : and how much i miss emily . and maybe that 's -- maybe that 's all this is , do you think ? it 's just helping each other through loss . nikolas : no . i think loss is why we did n't recognize it before . elizabeth : this is crazy . i mean , after all this time . but i ca n't stop thinking about you . nikolas : god , you 're beautiful . i really wish it could be different . elizabeth : but it ca n't . nikolas : okay . elizabeth : we need to keep our distance . and then , maybe it ... maybe at some point , we can just go back to being friends . nikolas : okay . i 'm gon na go . elizabeth : yeah , we should . nikolas : bye .

patrick : i think the best thing you can do is just tell the chief that you slapped lisa , come clean before she can spin it her own way . robin : well , she wo n't have to work too hard . i 'm sure my handprint 's still on her face . patrick : robin , she forced you into it , so maybe he 'll understand . robin : it 's still assault . steve : could you give us a minute ? robin : no , you know what ? i already know what you 're gon na say . i 'm suspended , right ? steve : why would you think that ? [ scene_break ] swavek : you 're the unpredictable one . the balkan does n't like it . lucky : he likes my results well enough , does n't he ? swavek : well , that 's the only reason you 're still alive . but he wants you to kill the girl to show good faith . lucky : happy to oblige . [ scene_break ] luke : i 'm giving you this information about the balkan as a courtesy , you know . jason : do you know why he 's targeting you ? luke : well , i have a pretty good idea . why ? jason : 'cause i 'm trying to gather all the information i can on this guy so i can stop him . luke : why do you want to do that ? not for me . jason : the balkan is threatening brenda . luke : who ? jason : brenda barrett . luke : oh , sonny 's friend . jason : yeah . believe me , she is not gon na be safe unless this guy is dead . luke : well , then you 've got your work cut out for you , my friend . [ scene_break ] lulu : i love you . dante : even when i 'm being a self - righteous ass ? lulu : even then . dante : who am i to land on michael with both feet ? it 's not like i 'm perfect . lulu : well , you 're perfect to me . what , you have some dark secret that i do n't know about ? [ scene_break ] steve : why would you think you 're facing suspension ? robin : i do n't know . i just thought ... steve : yeah , it 's true , i disagreed with your recommendation for the carnahan case and i chose a different course of treatment , but the drug protocol you chose was perfectly -- robin : i 'm sorry , i just , um ... i overreacted , i guess . i 'm sorry for being offensive . steve : look , robin , i understand that this is your first day back . robin : yes , and i 'm a little ... overeager to prove myself right now . patrick : but she 's doing a great job , all things considered . steve : i agree . i just do n't want to push it . so if you need to extend your leave of absence , i 'd be more than happy to -- robin : no , no , i do n't need to do that . steve : okay . are you sure ? robin : i appreciate the offer , but honestly , i 'm fine . steve : all right . just let me know if you change your mind . robin : wow . lisa 's better than we thought . she did n't turn me in for slapping her , but she turned it around and made it look like i was defensive and paranoid . lisa : hey , patrick , i have a case i 'd like you to look at . patrick : lisa , i already told you that i 'm not working with you . lisa : okay , we 've all been on an emotional roller coaster . i was just hoping that your sense of professionalism might -- robin : he just said he does n't want to work with you . what part of that do you not understand ? lisa : i 'm sorry , but this case is in your expertise , and i owe it to my patient to get the best possible care . patrick : well , there are other neurosurgeons in this hospital that are just as capable , so i suggest you go talk to one of them . lisa : okay . i will . robin : when i see her , i just want to rip her hair out from her roots . patrick : hey . you can not let her get to you like that . robin : i ca n't help it . she talks , it 's like nails on a chalkboard . patrick : maybe you should consider the chief 's offer of a leave of absence . [ scene_break ] jason : have you done any business with the balkan ? luke : no . not directly , anyway . but he 's turning into quite a powerful figure in the underworld in europe . he 's well connected , people owe him favors , and if you cross him , you do n't get a chance to do it again . jason : any idea who he is ? or where i can find him ? luke : well , i 've heard paris , prague , budapest , further east . i mean , rumors put him everywhere , man . and who is he ? nobody , including interpol , knows . what does he want with brenda ? jason : he 's tried to kidnap her a few times . he obviously wants to take her , and she knows something , but she 's not telling me . luke : do n't you hate it when the damsel in distress wo n't get off the railroad track ? jason : i mean , is there any chance you think the balkan is targeting you to get to her here ? or is that ... luke : no . no , he 's not really after me , anyway . he 's after lucky . [ scene_break ] lucky : so the balkan wants me to prove my loyalty to him , does he ? that 's fine . so be it . i 'll kill the girl where she stands . but why not sacrifice all of us while i 'm at it ? swavek : what do you mean ? lucky : shooting the woman right here in the open , 30 feet from a 5-star hotel , where any number of witnesses could be passing . i mean , this whole garden could be rigged with video surveillance . we could all wind up with our faces on the -- siobhan : aah ! swavek : ohh ! stop ! lucky : that was brilliant . well done . [ scene_break ] lulu : this is about more than michael . dante : you think so ? lulu : yeah . you 're investigating the bomb that almost killed johnny and kristina , and sonny could be responsible , and if you find proof that he is , he could go to prison . and your job is in conflict with your desire to protect your brothers and your sister . dante : there 's no easy answer . lulu : well , part of you wants to cover for sonny and bury it under the rug , and i think you 're struggling with that . are n't you ? dante : i do n't want any lies or any secrets . lulu : well , no matter what you decide , i 'll love you either way . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm not gon na hurt you . you got ta know that . i mean , i know something else is bothering you . tell me . i 'll take care of it . [ brenda laughs and cries ] sonny : all right ? brenda : i ca n't tell you . sonny : all right . all right . you be kind to her . treat her with respect . max : you got it , boss . [ scene_break ] luke : i was in ireland , and i see in the dublin papers that lucky , using the name ronan o'reilly , has been arrested for a double homicide . jason : why was lucky using an alias ? luke : ronan o'reilly was a hired assassin working for the balkan . recently he got killed or died . i do n't know the details . so interpol sent lucky in undercover to try and find out who and where the balkan is . jason : and what happened to him ? luke : well , i went into the jail and had a talk with him , and i was gon na bust him out , but interpol made a call and they let him right out . so it turns out that there was nothing i could do for him . i was in danger of blowing his cover , so i left , came back here . but the fact that the balkan has traced me here and wants to talk to me about ronan o'reilly means that his reach is a lot longer than i expected . jason : [ sighs ] well , thank you for all the information . and if you hear anything else , please -- luke : sure , i 'll let you know . you bet . and for lucky 's safety , you do the same . jason : absolutely . yeah . thanks . luke : see you , jason . jason : all right . [ scene_break ] lucky : how thick are you ? first you tell me to kill the girl in public , then you give her a chance to scream and run . if she tells the cops that ronan o'reilly was ordered to kill her and almost did , i 'll have the police , interpol , and immigration breathing down my neck . so you be sure to tell the balkan that any delay in finding brenda barrett is thanks to you . swavek : the balkan does n't want excuses . he wants brenda barrett to be found . lucky : when i find her , i 'll give him a call . now , stay out of my way , or i 'll shoot you myself . [ scene_break ] robin : you want me out of the hospital ? patrick : robin , that is not what i meant , and you know it . robin : you honestly think that i need a leave of absence , that , oh , i 'm too emotional or something to handle my work as a doctor ? patrick : no , i do n't . but maybe some time to adjust . lisa 's return here was unexpected . robin : i just ca n't believe shadybrook released her , after everything she did . patrick : i agree . but she 's here . we ca n't change that . now , i do n't want her doing things that 's gon na push you into doing something that you regret , like slapping her . robin : so your solution is to get me out of the hospital . which basically means you 'll be here alone with her , so that certainly takes the pressure off . you two can pick up right where you left off . patrick : hey , listen to me . i am on your side all the way . i do n't want anything to do with lisa . but when she provokes you like that and you overreact , you 're giving her exactly what she wants . robin : you gave her exactly what she wanted when you slept with her . [ cell phone rings ] [ ring ] robin : hello ? brenda : hey . can you come over ? robin : are you okay ? brenda : i just need to talk . [ scene_break ] dante : sonny basically admitted that he was behind the car bombing . lulu : does kristina know ? dante : i think she has her suspicions , but she does n't want to face the fact that her father almost killed her . lulu : and you do n't want to be the one to make her face it . dante : she 's suffered enough . lulu : why do n't you just get yourself taken off the case ? dante : i tried to . i cited conflict of interest . but whoever this higher up that 's pulling the strings wants me on this case . [ knock on door ] ronnie : sorry to interrupt . dante : no , you 're not . ronnie : all right . but , look , it 's important . and private . lulu : oh , that 's fine . no , no , it 's fine . my dad just got in town and i barely got to say hi to him , so i 'm just gon na go see him , okay ? ronnie : sorry . lulu : it 's okay . dante : so , what is it ? make it fast and then get out of here . ronnie : i just came to give you a heads - up . you are in a world of trouble . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . luke : oh , hi . lulu : hi . luke : this is weird . i was just gon na call you . lulu : oh , let me guess . tracy 's still shutting you out and you need help extricating yourself from the doghouse . luke : no , that was n't it , but it 's a really good idea , if you could ... lulu : well , i actually tried , and you 've dug yourself pretty deep this time , so ... luke : oh , yeah . i know , i really messed up . but i do believe she loves me . and i believe i 'm gon na regain my rightful place as her husband . lulu : kind of a problem since you never really were her husband . luke : ah , details . look , what i 'm concerned about right now is lucky . lulu : i thought that he was okay . luke : well , here 's what i know . i 'm in ireland doing some business , i open the dublin `` times , `` and there 's a picture of your brother , and the headline says , `` ronan o'reilly , hired assassin , arrested for double homicide . `` so i talked my way into the jail to see him . lulu : is he okay ? luke : he was . but recent events are making me believe that the balkan does n't trust ronan . and that can be real trouble for lucky . [ scene_break ] lucky : oh , good , you 're here . siobhan : thought i 'd make a run for it , did you ? lucky : if you 'd gone back to ireland , you 'd be dead by tomorrow morning . siobhan : oh . why be murdered by a stranger when ronan o'reilly 's more than happy to do the job ? lucky : you knew i would n't shoot you . siobhan : did i ? lucky : yeah . that 's why you took my cue to scream and run . nice job , by the way . siobhan : i would n't be smiling with the mess you 're in . if you let me live , you blow your cover . talk your way out of this one . lucky : you 're enjoying this , are n't you ? siobhan : the laughs have been few and far between with us . yeah , i 'm quite enjoying seeing you in a bind that you ca n't lie your way out of . lucky : of course i 'm gon na lie , siobhan . so are you . siobhan : hmm . should be interesting . [ scene_break ] robin : oh , hi , guys . brenda asked me to come over . max : just be real nice to her , okay ? she 's upset about something . the boss was worried about her when he left . milo : jason did n't look too good either . i really hope he did n't make miss barrett cry . max : of course he did n't . milo : oh , he can be tough on her , you know . she needs a man who 's kind and sympathetic . maybe i should have gone in . max : and talk to her about what , protein shakes and organic rutabagas ? milo : i 've been reading those women 's magazines , all right ? i can talk about women 's feelings . max : oh , yeah ? well , feel this . robin : excuse me . it 's great that brenda 's being taken care of by such caring men , but can i ... max : yes . absolutely . robin : hey . brenda : hi . robin : are you okay ? brenda : yeah , i feel better now . robin : well , what happened ? brenda : i just do n't feel that good . i just feel ... like i ca n't breathe . robin : was there another attack or something ? brenda : no , no . it 's , uh ... it 's sonny . i , uh , you know i love him . you know that . i ca n't be with him . robin : uh ... [ brenda sighs ] robin : did you tell him that ? brenda : yeah , i told him a bunch of times , and , um ... i , um ... i thought maybe you 'd ... maybe you could talk to him and just ... look , sonny 's coming after me because he feels what i 'm feeling , and he knows me , and i want to protect him . i need you to go talk to him for me , okay ? and i just need you to tell him that you made a mistake and that we 're not meant to be together . [ scene_break ] ronnie : mayor floyd thinks you 're covering for sonny . dante : oh , well , that 's great . i mean , you two got something in common . ronnie : come on , dante . i know we 've had our issues , okay ? but i do n't want to see you get shafted , and that 's exactly what is gon na happen unless you watch your back . dante : what are you talking about ? ronnie : floyd wants you out of the picture . whether it 's by a legit internal affairs investigation or any means necessary . he actually approached me about framing you , and i pretended to go along with it . dante : well , what happens when you do n't get results ? ronnie : he 's gon na ask somebody else . he wants you gone , dante . okay ? dante : well , you know what ? there are plenty of reasons to bend the law and compromise your badge , and , uh , sonny 's not one of them . [ scene_break ] jason : i got an update on the balkan . he 's targeting luke . sonny : how did luke get involved ? jason : actually , it has nothing to do with brenda at all . lucky 's actually working undercover in ireland trying to find out the balkan 's identity . i guess interpol recruited him because he looks like this guy ronan o'reilly , who works for the balkan . but lucky got himself in a tight spot and luke got involved . sonny : did they find out who the balkan is ? jason : no . but luke said he 's gon na pass on any information . sonny : we need to talk about brenda . jason : was she okay when you went back ? sonny : i went to see her and , uh -- there 's something going on with her . and i thought i could help ... but then i realized that i 'm the one doing this to her . [ scene_break ] spinelli : uh , might the jackal join you , or are you waiting on someone else or ... michael : no . spinelli : forgive me . my reading of social cues is frequently inept . did you -- did you -- did you mean no , i 'm not welcome to join you or ... michael : no , no , i 'm not waiting for anybody . please sit down . spinelli : if i might make a personal observation , you seem to be somewhat downcast ? michael : yeah . i did something really stupid today , and now it 's come back to bite me . i , uh , went to go see jason at my dad 's office and claire walsh was there . and since it 's , you know , it 's technically the place of my dad 's work ... she threatened to turn me in for parole violation . spinelli : well , that seems unduly harsh . you know , if you 'd like , i could hack into the pejorative prosecutor 's financial records and lower her credit score to such a level that she would n't even be able to finance a skinny latte . michael : that 's okay . it 's fine . you know , i just -- i think she 's just pissed off at my dad . they were dating , and i think he broke up with her when he found out that brenda 's back in port charles . spinelli : wait . the scorned woman targeted you to exact romantic revenge for mr. sir ? complete ruination of claire walsh 's financial records is too good for her . i will not rest until i deliver her identity , tax records , social security number to the most felonious group of online imposters that will leave her impoverished , discredited , and unable to rent or buy a domicile for at least 10 years . michael : no . and by no , i mean , no , you 're not going after claire walsh , not to avenge me , not for any other reason . [ scene_break ] sonny : after you left and i went to see brenda , she was definitely wound up . there 's something going on like i said . i tried to , you know , calm her down . she did n't really want any part of it . after i left , what did you guys talk about ? jason : i mean , i asked her about the balkan . and i know that she 's hiding something she 's not telling me , and i said i was tired of her lying to me . sonny : how did she react ? jason : not good . because i said somebody 's gon na get hurt or somebody 's gon na die and it 's gon na be on her . sonny : she 's fragile . she 's scared . just -- you got ta be patient with her . jason : i 'm trying . sonny : look , she does n't want me to take care of her . she ... you know , she ... does n't want me looking out for her , whatever , so , uh , you 're gon na -- you 're gon na have to do that for me . you promise me you 'll look after her ? jason : you have my word . sonny : i appreciate that . [ scene_break ] robin : brenda , i am so sorry . i 'm the one that encouraged sonny . brenda : no , no , what are you talking about ? sonny does n't do anything he does n't want to do . robin : yeah , i know , but i ... i thought it could work this time . you know , and ... it was stone 's last wish , and so i had this image in my head , this image of you and sonny happily ever after . i guess because of my own marriage falling apart i needed to believe that , so i -- i apologize for imposing my romantic fantasies on you . brenda : please , do n't apologize to me for anything . trust me , nothing 's your fault . it 's really important that you go talk to sonny and just tell him that we ca n't be together . [ scene_break ] lisa : okay , so i will operate on mr. klein 's hip next week . steve : you 're hitting the ground running . lisa : oh , i 'm so ready to be back at work tomorrow . steve : you 're an excellent doctor , lisa . lisa : i really appreciate your support , steve . because i know you could have fought this . but you 've really been great . steve : yeah , well , your evaluation from shadybrook said you were ready to come back to work . but if you feel stressed or pressure or overwhelmed in any way , shape , or form , you need to come to me and tell me about it . lisa : okay , it 's a deal . thanks . patrick : i can not believe they released her from shadybrook after everything she 's done . steve : allegedly done . we only have robin 's word to go on . patrick : are you kidding me ? you 're believing her lies ? steve : her evaluation from shadybrook was glowing . they said she was read to come back to work . patrick : well , of course . she 's a very smart doctor , but i 'm telling you , she 's as dangerous as ever . steve : maybe that 's your guilt talking . patrick : hey , i do n't have to tell you all the crazy things that she 's done . you know that . steve : there 's no evidence to prove any of that . patrick : so now you 're saying that robin 's lying . steve : what i 'm saying is , i 'm just suggesting that maybe subconsciously you 're trying to prove that you 're behind robin so she takes you back . patrick : with all due respect , you 're way off base . steve : patrick . lisa is a respected member of this staff . unless and until she 's proven unstable , i have to treat her fairly , and so do you . patrick : well , i already told you , i do n't want to be anywhere near her . steve : if i need you to do a procedure with lisa , you will . and if you wo n't , then you 're gon na have to be the one to resign . [ scene_break ] luke : look , from what i understand , this balkan is one sadistic son of a bitch . i 'm very surprised that lucky involved you in what he was doing . lulu : well , he did n't . he told me and ethan that tracy sent you to go look for him . i found out the truth when he called dante to get information on ronan . luke : well , it was brave of you , but you should have never gone to ireland . lulu : well , i was n't going to sit on my hands in port charles when my brother needed my help . luke : i understand that . i get that completely . but , you know , he 's got skills . he 's quick on his feet . lulu : so am i . luke : i 'm not saying you 're not . baby , you 're a credit to my loins . have you heard from him -- lulu : no . since you 've been back ? okay , well , what i wanted to ask you is if you do hear from him , let me know right away . 'cause if he does n't surface in the next few days , i 'm gon na have to go after him . [ scene_break ] lucky : all right , we have to make it look like i passed the balkan 's test and killed you . siobhan : and how are we going to do that , ronan , have a lovely funeral at a local church with a few hired mourners ? lucky : you have to disappear . hopefully the balkan will assume that i dumped the body . siobhan : where would i disappear to ? lucky : port charles , new york . it 's my hometown . siobhan : absolutely not . lucky : siobhan , i 'm trying to go over all the options here . it 's the only one that makes sense . siobhan : you ca n't just jerk me around like a puppet on a string . i 've got family in ireland who will keep me safe . lucky : ireland . that 's the first place the balkan 's gon na look . you 're gon na wind up dead , siobhan . look , these people do n't forget . they tie up every loose end . and i 'm gon na wind up dead , too , if the balkan finds out i let you live . the only way both of us survive is if we stay together . [ scene_break ] spinelli : you are far too magnanimous to those who do n't deserve it . michael : look , do n't forget , i 'm the one who screwed up . besides , it 's over now . why not let it go . spinelli : you sound eerily like stone cold . perhaps you 've inherited his ability to focus on the big picture , not to get hung up on petty details or short - term grudges . i earnestly hope that stone cold can apply his clarity of vision to the emotional quagmire that currently incapacitates mr. sir and the divine one . michael : wait . dad and brenda got in a fight ? spinelli : i 'm unclear as to the details , but it appears that mr. sir wishes to pursue a romantic relationship with the divine one , and she does not reciprocate his feelings . to wit , she has made repeated pleas to be left in peace . you know , as much as i treasure the divine one 's presence , she does not seem easy in port charles . michael : well , yeah . she 's being stalked by an eastern bloc mafia chief . spinelli : which would naturally cause distress , but i 'm speaking more to a ... a restlessness of spirit . she seems more ... troubled than afraid . and i 'm at a loss as to how to help her . [ scene_break ] man : [ laughing ] that 's how it 's done . brenda : yeah . that was interesting , that 's for sure . hi , dante . dante : evening , miss barrett . how was your night ? brenda : uh , it was fine . man : a police guard ? brenda : oh , it 's just a precaution . dante : is there anything i can get for you , miss barrett ? brenda : oh -- i 'm okay . do you need anything ? dante : no , i 'm good , thank you . brenda : okay . good night . man : a little privacy , officer ? lulu : hey . dante : hey . lulu : so , uh , what did ronnie want ? dante : uh ... nothing . it was just ronnie being ronnie . i 'm sorry you had to leave . lulu : no , it was fine . like i said , i got to catch up with my dad . dante : how is -- how is luke ? lulu : well , he 's staying at the metro court because tracy wo n't take him back , but they will work it out . dante : so i guess that means that we only have ourselves to think about ? lulu : yeah . my kind of evening . [ scene_break ] sam : hey , guys . is jason home ? max : uh , no , but brenda is . sam : oh . hi . brenda : hi . sam : um , i have ... i have plans with jason . brenda : oh , yeah , that 's okay . i 'm just gon na tell him something real quick and then i 'll get out of your way . [ tapping on door ] sam : yeah , um ... brenda , look , i know this is awkward , and you really do n't want to be here . you kind of have to be here . you do n't have to feel like you 've got ta get up and run away every time i -- brenda : you do n't have to say all of that to me . i mean , you should n't have to feel like you ca n't , you know , be alone with your boyfriend . jason : i just want to say i 'm sorry i yelled at you . brenda : uh , please do n't say you 're sorry to me about anything . you 've turned your whole life inside out to protect me . jason : you had to leave your home . i know that 's been hard for you . brenda : i 'm sorry that ... i 'm sorry that i told you that anything was your fault . nothing is your fault . jason : listen , i 'm just gon na do my job so you can get back to your life . brenda : okay , i 'm gon na let you guys have your time , uh , alone . sam : what happened ? jason : um ... i do n't know . i mean , i thought it was about sonny , but ... now i 'm not so sure .

carly : so , heather goes into the shack , and she comes out with a magically healthy baby ? todd : yes . and we are all relieved . and then tea shows up , and she assumes , as i have ... that this was her child . and we were very , very happy . carly : and that is 100 % what happened ?

anna : luke , please -- luke : what if jonathan paget was the real deal and this guy was the imposter with a couple of decades and a fine plastic surgeon behind him ? what then ? how are you gon na prove it ?

[ scene_break ] michael : i think i understand why you did n't tell me you were pregnant , but i still wish you would have told me sooner . because we talked , and we talked about how important it is to be straight with each other after everything that happened between me and kiki . sabrina : all i can say is i was nervous . i did n't know how you would feel about me being pregnant . michael : well , do n't you know how i feel about you ? sabrina ... i love you .

[ scene_break ] alexis : molly , we have been through this . i do n't think it 's unreasonable for you to treat my partner with a minimum of respect . molly : even when he 's still his shady self ? alexis : what did i just say ? molly : fine . you might be resolved not to see what 's right in front of you . that 's on you . just do yourself a favor , and the next time julian gets a mysterious phone call , dig yourself a hole , and put your head in it . [ scene_break ] spinelli : it seems fitting that we should be together on this sad anniversary . sam : yeah . spinelli : should we do something special to commemorate jason 's loss ? sam : like what ? spinelli : i do n't know . light a candle , recite a poem , tan some leather ? [ both chuckle ] sam : you know , spinelli , i think jason 's atoms , molecules , and stardust would be shuddering at the very thought . spinelli : yeah . he was never big on ceremony . i get carried away , i guess . sam : you know , i think you can do whatever you feel is appropriate , but i think we could just stand here as friends ... look up at the sky ... remember the person we lost . let him know how much we loved him . spinelli : excellent idea . sam : did you see that ? spinelli : what ? jason : a shooting star . [ scene_break ] ned : olivia , i want us to be together . i want to be with leo . i want us to be a family . but not under this cloud of lies . it wo n't work for me . olivia : i never wanted it to be like this . i was ready to tell him the truth . i went over to his place . i looked him right in the eye . i was ready to tell him , and the guy got arrested right in front of me . ned : what ? olivia : they thought he was guilty of hijacking sonny 's trucks . ned : were n't those charges dropped ? olivia : yeah , eventually . ned : did n't -- has n't julian sworn that he 's out of the mob ? olivia : he swears he 's out of the mob . he always swears he 's out of the mob . ned : well , maybe this time , with alexis 's influence , maybe it 's true . olivia : even if that 's true , even if you 're right , even if he is out of the mob , what difference does it make when no one believes him ? dante does n't believe him . ned : as long as julian 's enemies have their doubts , there 's still danger . olivia : i can not risk bringing leo into julian 's orbit unless i know that it 's safe . that is the policy that kept dante safe and happy and in one piece until he was a grown man , man enough to take care of himself . leo deserves that same chance . ned : i understand . olivia : okay . ned : and i ca n't blame you . i mean , leo 's safety is your first priority . olivia : yes . so where does that leave us ? ned : at the end .

[ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : i understand you have nothing at this time . thank you for talking with me . [ breathes deeply ] dummkopf ! teufel nochmal . ava : trouble in zurich town ? dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] the whole situation is ludicrous . i have three phds from the biozentrum , ran the most prestigious private clinic in switzerland , and saved general hospital from bankruptcy . i 'm too good to join the ranks of those metzger at mercy . ava : leaving general hospital behind , are you ? dr. obrecht : the hospital board has left port charles behind . i ca n't afford to sit on my hands while they dither about when and whether to reopen the hospital . i must move on with my life . ava : that ... is easier said than done . [ scene_break ] maxie : i know that this might come as a shock to you right now , but claudette 's not exactly known for her honesty . nathan : yeah , okay , so , claudette 's a liar . but lies have points , right ? there 's a certain logic to them . you did n't do your homework ? you lie , and you get an extension . if you 're hungover , and you 're late for work , then you lie about traffic or something , and you cover your ass . if ... what would -- what is the point of making me think that charlotte is mine ? what would claudette hope to get out of it ? maxie : um , the same thing she 's been hoping to get since she got to town -- you .

[ scoffs ] and how can you tell that the sample that you got from the juice box was n't contaminated ? maxie : whoa ! wait ! why are you questioning me about this ? nathan : i 'm not , i 'm not . maxie : do you think that i 'm lying ? nathan : no , no . i 'm just ... i 'm trying to reconcile how two tests of the same genetic material came up with totally different results . maxie : okay , well ... i 'm just gon na say it -- how do we know that the sample claudette gave us was really charlotte 's ? nathan : oh , but the test shows that the hair came from someone related to me , so if it was n't charlotte , then who was it ? [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : you and the corinthos boy were close once , nicht wahr ? ava : yeah . once . dr. obrecht : terrible to lose one so young . his parents will never get over this . shame . and tragically avoidable . ava : yes . truly . if morgan had just ... gotten into any other car ... dr. obrecht : one not rigged with a bomb . true , there is that . but i was referring to the young man 's state of mind . it does n't take an expert in brain chemistry to deduce morgan 's treatment was n't working properly . if he 's been on the correct drug regimen , he 'd have been of sound mind and likely would never have gotten into that car at all . the bomb may have taken his life , but it was the failure of his medications that killed him .

[ scene_break ] alexis : did you do something to provoke the attack ? ric : what , like make some -- some sort of a sudden movement ? i was questioning jason about alcazar 's whereabouts . he has n't been seen around town for a couple of days , so i just wanted to make sure that he was n't going to turn up floating in the harbor . alexis : ric , how many times has jason been arrested ? 200 -- 300 times ? have you ever seen him snap while being questioned ? ric : well , when sonny had his breakdown , jason had to take over the business , right ? he had to step up . and alcazar 's been on his -- he 's been on him ever since , ok ? maybe he 's just hit a nerve with -- with the two of them about to go to war . i do n't -- i do n't care why he -- he snapped . i think the important thing that you seem to be missing here is that i am alive . jason left a -- a witness . a very credible one , at that . i 'm finally going to be able to charge him with attempted murder , and i 'm going to make it stick . look , enough about that . how are you feeling ? alexis : i 'm tired . tying her shoelaces tires me out . ric : well , why do n't you let sam worry about tying kristina 's shoelaces ? and you can get some rest . why do n't you go home ? alexis : no , it 's too late . she 's -- she 's got the girls at disney world with viola . ric : you 're at the house alone ? alexis : i 'm fine . alexis : and for the record , i 'm glad that you 're still drawing breath .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : oh . colleen : you should n't be doing that on your own . nikolas : i 'm fine . i got it . colleen : i 'm not sure what happened earlier . emily obviously thinks i overstepped in some way . nikolas : she 's just worried about me , that 's all . colleen : so am i . there have been a number of suspicious accidents around here . nikolas : well , my grandmother can be very aggressive when it comes to getting what she wants . colleen : i think it would be wise to only surround yourself with people you completely trust . nikolas : why ? is there someone on the staff that you feel may be disloyal ? colleen : the staff has the utmost respect for you . but emily 's hurt you in the past . i would n't want to see that happen again . nikolas : how 'd you know about that ? colleen : you told me . you were on the pain medication and began to ramble about how emily rejected you . it sounded awful . nikolas : hey , i do n't know what i may have or have n't said while i 've been medicated . but emily 's not only my ex - wife , she 's my best friend . ok ? and although you are a welcomed addition to this family , if there 's a choice to be made , i will always trust emily . colleen : of course , sir . nikolas : and , colleen , if -- if i 've misled you or sent you mixed messages , i apologize . colleen : um -- not at all . i 'm perfectly clear about the situation .

steve : hey . robin : there you are . so , the ih patient , the one patrick wanted me to see , mrs. lauer , her new tests came back , and her cerebral spinal fluid still is n't draining , so i 'm not sure the drug protocol is the way to go . steve : you think surgery is indicated ? lisa : you know , i 've had success with intercranial hypertension , so if you want , i could take a look at your patient -- robin : you come anywhere near my patients , and i will have you up on charges before you know what hit you .

[ scene_break ] claire : should n't you be concerned with your own husband ? carly : i 'm just doing you a favor . if you 're inclined to rescue the bad boy , now 's your chance . claire : you want to protect michael . you hope that if sonny and i are together , i wo n't have any reasons to send michael back to pentonville . carly : we already agreed that you were n't going to touch michael . i 'm just trying to be nice . brenda blew off sonny . maybe it 's an opportunity you do n't want to pass up . claire : i do n't say sorry much myself , but i am . i went after michael to punish his father , and it was petty , and it was beneath me , and it wo n't happen again . so do n't try to gift wrap sonny and put him in my bed . i can do my own shopping . good luck holding onto your husband .

[ scene_break ] dante : so , got to admit , i 'm kind of curious as to how sonny and brenda ended up hooking up . michael : all i know is what i 've been told . dad and brenda had a record company with brook lynn 's mother . they fell in love , and it 's a really big deal for the both of them . dante : and sonny left her at the altar . michael : yeah . i heard it really wrecked her . dante : she could n't have been that wrecked . i mean , she went from jilted bride to international supermodel . that 's pretty good . michael : yeah . kind of makes you wonder what happened to her in between . i mean , along the way , something good must have happened to her .

[ scene_break ] ethan : so you lost the entire 10 million ? that 's impressive . luke : i would have come back with 20 , except i got distracted by lucky 's situation , and by the time i got back to business , my so - called associates , the bastards , had absconded with the goods and the cash . ethan : well , it 's good to know you 'll give up a sure thing for one of your kids . maybe you could appeal to tracy on that level . luke : that does n't explain why i borrowed the money in the first place . see , the thing is -- and i 'm not proud of this -- if tracy was dead broke , i 'd still love that woman . ethan : would you ? luke : yeah . i just need a chance to prove it . i need back in her house , back in her bed , back in her ... good graces . and that 's where you come in . ethan : me ? heh . i 've got problems of my own , mate . all right ? i 've had my eye on a certain lady , and she wo n't give me the time of day . luke : the lovely maya . ethan : if she could just stand still long enough , i 'm sure she 'd appreciate my finer points . and that is where you come in . [ scene_break ] kate : you both should know how important it is to get brenda barrett for the `` crimson `` cover . maxie : that was my original plan . kate : yes , but somehow , maxie , you failed to deliver . you did not approach brenda yourself , nor did you tell me she was in port charles so that i could approach her . what 's your excuse ? maxie : do n't blame lulu . she was out of town . kate : right . so someone please explain how spinelli has such intimate knowledge of brenda 's comings and goings ? spinelli : the divine one is in stone cold 's care . he keeps her safe , and i tend to her other needs . kate : oh . what needs ? maxie : it 's not what you think . kate : you do n't know what i think , because if you did , you would know that someone interested in a career in fashion would not let brenda barrett slip through her fingers . spinelli : excuse me . maximista is thoroughly devoted to you and your magazine . if she failed to deliver the divine brenda , it 's because the divine brenda did not wish to be delivered .

[ scene_break ] kate : madeline , look . if you ca n't produce brenda barrett for the cover , then we 're just going to have to go with heidi . now the agency 's claiming they do n't even know where she is . spinelli : it 's because they do n't . kate : but you do ? lulu : it 's a lot harder to find brenda than you think . spinelli : suffice it to say the divine one 's situation is most dire . kate : people ! she is a fashion model . why is everyone acting like she 's carrying state secrets ? spinelli : the jackal 's not at liberty to discuss such matters . stone cold 's specific instructions were to guard the divine one 's privacy . but you know , maximista has always done her very best to satisfy the glacial one . but in this instance , your wish must remain unfulfilled . maxie : kate , maybe if you spoke directly with jason ? kate : yes , after which i will go ask a brick wall . the result will be the same . maxie : point taken . kate : enough excuses , you two . you should know my priorities by now . so , is it too much to hope that you can produce my toronto itinerary , the submissions for the models for the new year 's issue , the proofs from federico 's last shoot , and the dream list of advertisers before lunch ? lulu : itinerary , new year 's , federico , and wish list . and lunch has been ordered . kate : on my desk . maxie : thank you for sticking up for me . spinelli : the jackal is in tune with the way your mind works . it 's a wondrous thing , maximista .

[ scene_break ] kate : well , that should cover my tab . coleman : so , where 's this guy that 's got you coming and going ? or are you playing hard - to - get ? you know , putting distance between the two of you to make him want you that much more ? kate : who said there even was a guy ? coleman : well , something 's knocked you off your pins . was it being at the church again , at a wedding with sonny ? kate : how do you know about that ? coleman : you made the tabloids . and i was surprised you let yourself get snapped at a mob wedding , with sonny corinthos no less , 'cause you 're always so selective about where and when you were seen with me . kate : you were hardly appropriate for every occasion , coleman . coleman : you know , you ca n't pass sonny off , a guy like him , as your assistant , so what role is he playing in your life these days ? [ scene_break ] lulu : so , now you 're telling me not to marry dante . so what is this , reverse psychology or something ? sonny : no , no . you should n't have to live in fear . i mean , dante would n't want you to do that , right ? so if you ca n't accept what he does , the risks he takes -- it 's part of his job -- you got to let him go . lulu : that 's very easy for you to say . sonny : it 's not about love . i know you love him . it 's about loving him enough to be honest . i mean , look ... it 's easy to live in a fantasy , but it 's the day- to - day that 's the hard part . if you guys ca n't be truthful about what you expect , what you want , it 's gon na end before it starts . lulu : i do n't want to hurt him . sonny : worst thing that you can do to dante is tell him you can live in his life and then realize , after the fact ... you ca n't . lulu : why do i feel like we 're not talking about dante anymore ? [ scene_break ] delores : where do you draw the line between personal and professional ? dante : i do n't know , officer . where do you ? you 're here questioning me after hours . is that because of your professional duty or personal ambition ? delores : well , call me ambitious , but i think whoever shot you needs to be off the streets . dante : i think you need to be off the streets and home in bed . delores : what 's it to you ? dante : hey , look , i was a rookie , too , once , officer padilla . i know what it 's like trying to prove that you can handle the grueling schedule . add into the mixture the sleep deprivation , it can seriously impair your judgment . delores : first of all , i am not a rookie . second of all , one would think you 'd be glad someone in this department is making this shooting a top priority . dante : i am . delores : no , you 're not . why is that , by the way ? are you hoping this case never gets solved ? [ scene_break ] matt : what i just said right there about lucky , that was out of line , so ... all we had , it was just a moment . it was a moment . elizabeth : would you have stopped if i had n't ? matt : well , i ... think with the amount of champagne that i 've consumed , i 'm lucky things went as far as they did . there , finally -- a smile ! i was beginning to think that this entire night was gon na be a bust . elizabeth : i know this is not how you pictured your celebration , but do n't let it take away from the fact that you 're getting published . matt : no , this is good . it 's good because it 's gon na keep me from getting a big head , which , as my big brother reminded me , i still have a lot to prove . elizabeth : why do you that ? matt : do what ? what ? elizabeth : he 's not even here , and you let him get to you . why do n't you step out of your brother 's shadow long enough to realize what you 've achieved ? matt : it 's a big shadow . the guy 's got a good life . he 's got a beautiful wife , he 's got an adorable child , an illustrious medical career . elizabeth : let 's not forget , not that long ago , there was a speed bump in the road named lisa . [ scene_break ] captain : briggs , i 've been looking for you . i -- who the hell ... [ scene_break ] robin : oh , start talking , drake . patrick : [ chuckles ] i was just thinking about the rooms we could have in our new house . robin : yeah ? patrick : mm - hmm . robin : a gazebo out back ? patrick : man cave . robin : sorry , i 'm not -- i do n't -- patrick : man cave . robin : a what ? patrick : man cave . a place for , you know , men to hang out -- like a fridge full of beer , flat - screen tv , foosball table , ping - pong table , air hockey , comfortable couch . robin : sure . just add on a garage so you can work on all your racecars . patrick : really ? robin : yeah , really . patrick : thank you . that 'd be great . robin : yeah , 'cause you 'll need something to do while i 'm relaxing in my spa . patrick : your spa ? your own spa ? robin : yes . you know , nothing over the top . just , you know , a steam shower and a sauna , hot tub . patrick : see , that 's good . 'cause we could both use that . i could get into that . robin : oh , no , but this hot tub , it would just be made for one person -- just a little tiny hot tub . patrick : our home just went from warm and cozy to cold and cavernous . robin : you started it . patrick : you did . well , i 'll start it again . just the essentials . you , me , and emma . that 's all i need . robin : me too . and , um ... this penny ? patrick : mm - hmm . robin : i think that we should frame it , put it over the door of our new house to remind us of this night and how lucky we really are . patrick : i think that 's a great idea . [ scene_break ] matt : but patrick is not the first man to have ever cheated . i mean , my father with my mother , and then -- bam ! -- there was me , so ... i guess that 's why , as hard as i am on patrick and i 've really judged him for what he did with lisa , it 's not his fault that she turned into a psycho anyway , so ... elizabeth : no , and he 's not to blame for what she did after , but , still , he should n't have slept with her . matt : yeah , but it 's difficult when a woman is coming after you with all guns blazing . you know , i guess it 's ... why they call us the weaker sex , right ? elizabeth : really ? so , is that what happened right now between you and me ? you 're just the weaker sex ? matt : look , i was n't putting a ring on your finger , okay ? hell , i was n't even asking you to prom . it was a kiss , all right ? and , look , even if things had gone further , it would n't have been a big deal . elizabeth : oh , gee , thanks . matt : it was just a kiss . men and women kiss sometimes . they have sex . elizabeth : yeah , well , i 'm a mother . matt : mothers have sex . elizabeth : dude , you 're just not getting it , are you ? matt : no , you 're not getting it ! elizabeth : excuse me ? matt : yeah . look , you 're a woman . be happy , go after what you want , but that 's never gon na happen . you 're never gon na be happy if you keep holding on to lucky and turning to men every time you need to be saved . elizabeth : you just crossed the line . well , congratulations . you are officially alone at your own party . [ scene_break ] olivia : whoo ! steve : mm ! olivia : that was invigorating . steve : well , that 's one way to describe it . i 'm gon na go with freezing . olivia : ha ! do n't be a baby . it was n't that bad . steve : yeah . for a mermaid , maybe . [ both laugh ] ice - cold or not , it was worth every second . olivia : aww . steve : hey , maybe this will warm us up . olivia : oh , my god . steve : what ? olivia : my tailbone has n't hurt at all since we got out of the water . maybe it 's true what they say -- that swimming really does cure what ails you . steve : hey , i thought that was my job . olivia : you want a job ? steve : mm - hmm . olivia : i 'll put you to work . but first , you 're gon na play . steve : it 's about time . olivia : [ chuckles ] steve : what are you doing ? oh . no , come on . was n't my earlier performance up on deck enough ? olivia : no , it was n't , as a matter of fact . that performance was for everybody else . take it . this one 's gon na be just for me . steve : i got something just for you . [ guitar strums ] she 'll be comin ' ' round the mountain when she comes whoo ! olivia : stop ! stop it . steve ... steve : [ laughs ] olivia : i want one from the heart . [ guitar plays ] steve : smoking cigarettes behind the bleachers before the bell i was superman , a front man in a garage band called the kings but the proof ai n't always right i was a legend in my mind never had a doubt i was gon na make it all the way she was 17 the prom queen chasing dream [ guitar strums ] olivia : you really went far away on that one . you want to tell me where ? [ scene_break ] pa : dr. smith to pediatrics . dante : why would n't i want to find out who shot me ? delores : you were shot in a coffee warehouse owned by your father , a known crime figure . dante : very good . so what ? delores : so , the person who shot you might work for your father -- might even be your father ! it would n't be the first time . dante : that 's a massive assumption based on zero evidence . delores : you were shot at point - blank range in february 2009 at the home of your father . dante : yeah , but i - i did n't know that he was my father at the time . delores : strangely , despite being an experienced undercover officer with expert ratings in marksmanship , you somehow managed to shoot yourself , which you stated in court , under oath , at least two separate occasions . dante : i love your tone . delores : only one i 've got . dante : how does your husband like it when he comes home at night ? delores : how does your fiancée feel about you not coming home at all , thanks to your old man ? dante : how do you know about that ? delores : i saw the ring when i went to your apartment and questioned miss spencer . wait . miss spencer is your fiancée , which means your friend , detective spencer , the one you were just defending about being a good cop , despite his botched drug case , will soon be your brother - in - law . dante : i get it . you think that i 'm being selective about who should obey the law and who should n't , right ? delores : well , i see a definite pattern of behavior here . dante : your husband 's a good guy , right ? delores : what does that have to do with anything ? dante : would that come into account if he ever got in trouble with the law ? delores : i did n't even say i was married . and i sure as hell do n't talk about my personal life at work , so -- dante : it 's the perfume you 're wearing , like i said . lulu wears the same one . it says a lot about you . i have to assume that there 's a guy out there who appreciates it as much as i do when she wears it . delores : you done ? now back to your shooting . dante : look , i told you everything i can about that night . it 's looking more and more like i 'm gon na have to solve this thing when i get out of here . unless you take that as a personal challenge . delores : unless you do n't like what i find out . [ scene_break ] sonny : your doubts about marrying dante do remind me of brenda , 'cause , uh ... i did n't -- i did n't look beyond wanting to be with a woman that i loved . lulu : and obviously , she did n't look beyond that , either , in the beginning . sonny : well , you know , we were lying to each other . we were living in some kind of bubble where the real world -- we could n't get through . lulu : bubbles always break . sonny : but she , uh ... she could n't deal with who i was and what i do , so it did n't work out . lulu : so she left . sonny : and that 's -- i 'm having the same feelings about you and dante , and i do n't want him to be hurt . lulu : mm . i 'm sorry . that rings a little hollow coming from you . sonny : i would never set out to harm my own flesh and blood . lulu : why do you have to harm anyone ? sonny : this is not about me . lulu : this is always about you . sonny : okay , lulu , if you go ahead with this ... engagement ... and you know in your gut that there 's no future there , you 'll be knowingly breaking dante 's heart . lulu : i 'm sorry . i do n't have time to listen to a lecture from you about hurting dante . sonny : is that why you 're here instead of the hospital -- 'cause you 've already made up your decision on your proposal ? lulu : that 's between me and him . sonny : yeah , okay . [ sighs ] do you have any idea where kate went ? lulu : maxie said she 's out of town . sonny : you have any idea ? lulu : no , i do n't . this is what she does . she takes off for one day or a few days . i do n't ask questions . you should appreciate that . sonny : all right , listen . do the right thing ... for your sake , for dante 's sake . [ cell phone rings ] lulu : hey , what are you still doing up ? dante : well , i told you i was gon na call you before i crashed . are you still swamped ? lulu : yeah , um ... i 'll call you tomorrow ? dante : uh ... try and make it better than a call . i want to see you here . first thing in the morning would be great . lulu : okay . just get some rest . dante : look , this is the second time you 've rushed me off the phone tonight . lulu : i 'm sorry . i - i do n't -- i do n't mean to . dante : i know . i just , uh ... i love you . lulu : i love you , too . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] kate : well , it did n't just disappear . coleman : this what you 're looking for ? kate : yes . coleman : you never answered my question about sonny . should i assume that you lowered your standards about who you will and wo n't be seen with ? kate : i came in here for a drink , not judgment . coleman : who 's judging ? i 'm just trying to get a handle on all this . maybe that tabloid shot of you and him was just you needing some flashy attention . kate : whatever it was , it 's none of your business . coleman : you know , i broke through that wall of ice once , ms. howard , and i got down to what was real . but if real does n't interest you anymore , i can go find it elsewhere .

[ door opens ] silas : yeah , it 's not gon na come to that . ava : oh , silas , thank god . help me . would you help me and my baby ? i - i know that you and i are not in the very best place ... but would you do this for me ? would you stop me from having this baby too soon ? nina : i never said that you could bring back the baby i lost . i never said that , mother . i said you could bring me a baby . i have a certain bundle of joy in mind . madeline : what ... bundle would that be ? nina : ava jerome 's . madeline : ava 's pregnant ? nina : yes . and with your help , i 'm gon na make that baby mine . bobbie : it 's not even worth getting into . it 's just your typical mother- daughter dustup . that 's all . lucas : [ scoffs ] i 'd hardly call your daughter marrying a sociopath `` typical . `` bobbie : did i say it was about franco ? lucas : no , but you did n't have to . if it makes you feel any better , you 're in good company . bobbie : it does n't . lucas : [ sighs ] i know . i 'm sorry . bobbie : i just want carly to be happy . i want both my children to be happy . lucas : i 'm happy . [ doorbell rings ] lucas : oh , and there 's the reason why right now . bobbie : ooh ! i ca n't wait to get to know this boyfriend of yours . lucas : oh , geez . bobbie : [ humming ] olivia : oh , i was right when i called it a couple months ago about you and sonny . carly : you 're delusional . olivia : oh , really ? you think i do n't see the two of you dancing around each other ? carly , i 've known that man since i was in kindergarten . i know when he 's involved in someone , and right now , that someone is you . carly : you know what ? um , for a psychic , your powers are severely lacking -- almost as bad as your spelling . olivia : [ chuckles ] really ? carly : yeah . you know , i have a fiancé , olivia . olivia : yeah , that might be true . that might be true , but the fact remains that your heart or maybe some organ south of that ... carly : that 's nice . olivia : ... still belongs to sonny . carly : so , i guess you think you have me all figured out . olivia : i do n't . carly : if i 'm so into sonny , why am i marrying franco ? heather : even when i think she ca n't get more despicable ... how could carly possibly want a violent mobster like sonny corinthos over a gentle soul like you ? franco : i guess old habits die hard . heather : you did n't walk in on them actually doing it ? franco : no . close enough , though . i have a video . heather : carly and sonny made a sex tape ? franco : unwittingly . heather : i ca n't imagine anything more vile . franco : you ca n't ? heather : how 'd you get ahold of the footage ? franco : well , i had my suspicions , so i took a camera , and i put it in a necklace , gave the necklace to carly , and she loves it . she wears it all the time . never takes it off . heather : not even to have carnal knowledge of the kingpin of the eastern seaboard . franco : not even . and so now , i can see everything that carly 's doing , even if i 'm not with her . heather : genius , as always . franco : take a look . olivia : get out of here . carly : in two days , franco will be my husband . olivia : you 're actually marrying that freak show ? carly : watch it , olivia . if you ca n't say something nice ... olivia : no , no , that guy belongs in the loony bin with that deranged mother of his . sonny : make sure all the bases are covered . no screw - ups . shawn : i got it . sonny : do you ? 'cause i tell you what -- carly would never forgive me if she knew i ordered this hit . shawn : it 'll go down without a hitch , all right ? you 'll see . not like what happened with ava . silas : kiki told me about the mix - up with the meds . morgan : yeah , uh , she , uh -- apparently , what she 's been taking can cause premature -- silas : causes premature labor . i know . how you doing , kid ? you been having contractions ? morgan : yeah , she has , and they 've actually -- they 've been getting worse . ava : so , is this it , then ? am i in labor ? silas : i 'm gon na need to do an exam before i can say for certain . morgan : if she 's -- if she 's in labor , is there any way to reverse that ? madeline : do n't tell me silas and ava are at it again . nina : oh , no , no , no , no . he 's done with that troll . no . he moved on to sam morgan , the trailer - trash tramp . madeline : who is ava with now ? nina : oh . who is ava with now ? that is the kicker , mom . that is definitely the kicker . this is the thing -- apparently , ava jerome was double dipping with a father and a son , so she does n't even know who the baby daddy is -- all the more reason she does n't deserve to have a kid . she does n't deserve to have a baby . why is it that ava has two kids , and i do n't even have one ? i have not even one , thanks to you . madeline : i 'm sorry . nina : do n't say that , please , to me . do n't say that , please . it -- it makes you feel better . it does n't make me feel better . madeline : all right . all right . nina : but you do feel bad , do n't you ? you wish you could do things differently , do n't you ? madeline : yes . nina : then help me help myself to ava 's baby . madeline : i ca n't do that , nina . silas : when was the last contraction ? morgan : it was a little while before you got here . silas : okay . how far apart are they now ? ava : i - i do n't know . um , i have n't been timing them . i thought i was just having cramps . it never occurred to me that i could be in labor . silas : okay , but you 've had one , say , in the last 15 minutes ? ava : ye -- yes . silas : nothing since ? ava : no . silas : okay . ava : and my water has n't broken , so that 's good . maybe this is just a false alarm . silas : maybe . tell me a little bit about the pregnancy . ava : uh , where -- where to start ? silas : any complications ? ava : no , um , a couple of weeks ago , i was having some cramps , but ... morgan : but the doctor did n't say that it was dangerous . kiki : well , and the prescription you were given was supposed to stop those cramps . silas : okay , how far along are you ? do you know when the baby was conceived ? ava : yeah . um , it was , uh ... the day of a.j . quartermaine 's funeral . sonny : we need to double down on finding ava . once we get rid of franco , we get rid of her . shawn : and then there wo n't be anyone left to tell michael you killed a.j . michael : you must have some idea who killed a.j . if you 're so positive it was n't carlos . who was it ? sabrina : i 'm not -- i 'm not 100 % sure . michael : you 're not 100 -- then why are we even talking about this ? sabrina : look , all i know for certain is that carlos did n't do it . michael : that 's not good enough . you 're the guy 's friend . you were even engaged at a point . sabrina : so ? michael : so , obviously , you want to believe the best in him . sabrina : that 's not what this is . michael : carlos confessed . he told anna devane that he killed my father . sabrina : yeah , but he told me that he did n't . michael . do n't you have some people in your life who you just -- you just know -- who you know -- you can tell right off the bat if -- if they 're being honest with you ? michael : yes , actually , it was that way with a.j . when he swore he did n't kill connie , i believed him . sabrina : okay . so that 's what it 's like with carlos and me . michael , he did n't do it . i promise you that he 's telling the truth . sabrina : look , i know this is a delicate subject , but you need to listen to me . i was with carlos a few days ago , and just like aj swore he did n't kill connie , carlos swore he made a false confession . he did n't kill aj quartermaine . michael : then why say he did ? why throw away 20 years or more of his life taking responsibility for a crime he did n't commit ? sabrina : someone forced him to . ava : well ? silas : good news is the fetus is pretty far along . if the baby was to be born today , it would have a pretty decent chance of survival . ava : oh , thank god . silas : that being said , it would be a whole lot better if we give him or her a little more time . morgan : okay . yeah , but is that possible ? silas : ava is n't actually in labor . her cervix is softening , but it is n't dilated . give you an injection of terbutaline . let 's see if we can stop you from delivering prematurely . ava : thank you , silas . nina : did you just say no to me ? is that what just happened ? madeline : think about what you 're saying . nina : i 've thought of nothing else for the last few months . madeline : i ca n't help you steal someone else 's baby . it is n't right . nina : all of a sudden , you 're taking the moral high ground ? after you put me in a coma for years ? madeline : accidentally . nina : accidentally ? did you accidentally kill that innocent pharmacist ? did you accidentally lie to your son for his entire life ? all of those things you did for you , and i 'm asking you to do one thing for me . madeline : this is -- nina : and all of sudden , you spring a code of ethics . madeline : listen ! this is n't what you need . you do n't need a child . you need someone to -- nina : i do n't want to hear that i need help ! i do n't need help ! i do n't need help ! i need a baby ! i need a baby . [ sighs ] and that you fail to see that i need a baby because you took one from me is absolutely insane to me ! but , you know , if you want to play ball , let 's play ball . madeline : what are you talking about ? nina : you know what i 'm talking about . if you wo n't take ava jerome 's baby to replace the one that you took from me , you 'll do it for money , wo n't you , mom ? bobbie : come on in . i am thrilled that you could come by . as a matter of fact , i have n't seen you since ... brad : i was arguing with felix over who could bandage your son . bobbie : that 's right . lucas : fun times . brad : yeah , i am very sorry about that . it was completely unprofessional . bobbie : brad , it 's okay . relax . i 'm just having a little fun with you . [ chuckles ] brad : oh . [ chuckles ] you 're funny . she 's funny . lucas : oh , yeah , she 's a real comedian . bobbie : by the way , i never had a chance to tell you how much i really enjoyed your performance at the nurses ' ball . brad : yeah ? bobbie : yeah . bet you 're not so broken - hearted anymore , are you ? lucas : you do n't have to answer that . brad : a lot has changed between now and then , that 's for sure . bobbie : and i am thrilled . brad : [ chuckles ] bobbie : so , what can i get you to drink ? lucas : we do n't want to be late for trivia night -- bobbie : i was really looking forward to getting acquainted with brad . lucas : okay , well , you can corner him at the wedding . how 's that ? brad : uh , what wedding ? lucas : my sister 's on halloween . brad : carly 's getting married ? you did n't tell me about that . lucas : yeah , sure , i did . brad : uh , no , you did n't . i 'd remember a halloween wedding . he always thinks he 's told me things when he has n't . bobbie : yeah , you know what ? he always does the same thing to me , too . he 's been doing that since he 's been a little boy . lucas : okay ! and they 're ganging up on me already . nice , you guys . real nice . okay , brad , so how about this ? would you like to come to my sister 's wedding with me ? brad : well , i 'd be honored . lucas : great . well , do n't get too excited . nobody supports the marriage . and everybody hates the groom . heather : will you just shut that off ? you know i ca n't stand her . franco : the bride - to - be ? we have that in common . heather : i mean olivia . for some bizarre reason , your brother steven lars could n't resist her . franco : uh - oh . and we know what happens to the girlfriend when she does n't get the heather webber seal of approval . heather : that 's right . franco : so , how come she 's not six feet under ? heather : not for lack of trying . she 's like a cockroach . i went so far as to inject her with a lethal dose of lsd , but did she die ? franco : i 'm guessing no . heather : just like carly . you know , sometimes , when i 'm in my miserable , little bed in my miserable , little room , i dream that i 'll get a second chance to rid the world of those scourges . but then i wake up , and i realize i 'm gon na be locked in here forever . franco : that could change . heather : how ? franco : you 're the mother of the groom . i simply must have you at my wedding . carly : franco and his mother are two different people . olivia : not so different if you ask me . carly : i did n't ask you . okay ? and in case you 're wondering , your invitation did n't get lost in the mail , and neither did sonny 's . so on halloween , you guys can hang out together and trick yourselves into believing i 'm making the biggest mistake of my life , and you can treat yourself to a helping of holier- than - thou . olivia : i like that little play on words . carly : thank you . olivia : that does n't change the fact that you 're protesting way too much . why do n't you just admit that you made a mistake ? carly : why do n't you shut up and stop worrying about who i love , who i 'm marrying , and whether he 's like his mother , heather webber ? ! olivia : oh , my god ! carly : what now ? olivia : it 's heather ! she 's got a knife ! carly : for god 's sake , olivia , it 's sonny . sonny : you okay ? what 's going on ? carly : she 's not okay . she 's having another lsd episode . olivia : it 's not an episode . they 're visions , and since i just saw heather webber standing there with a gigantic knife , it probably means that that lunatic is on the loose . sonny : heather webber ? what do you mean , heather webber ? olivia : she was standing there , clear as day , brandishing a gigantic butcher knife , which means , one way or the other , that lunatic is gon na try and kill someone . franco : you are a very important part of my wedding plan . heather : i am ? franco : yes , you are . i think it 's gon na be so much fun . dad will be there . oh , and carly 's lying mom -- she 'll be there , too . heather : well , the rotten apple does n't fall very far from the rotten tree , does it ? franco : will you make me the happiest son in the world and be the witness to the happiest day of my life when i finally get back at carly ? heather : i 'd love nothing more . but no one here is gon na grant me a day pass , not even for an event as monumental as this . so how can i possibly be at your wedding ? franco : you just leave that to me . michael : you 're telling me that somebody strong - armed carlos into a confession ? sabrina : yes . michael : how ? sabrina : by threatening to hurt me and my baby . michael : your baby . i , uh -- i heard about that . i 'm sorry for your loss . sabrina : thank you . [ clears throat ] michael : so , the accident you were in ... sabrina : it might be connected . it might not be , but that part we 're just -- we 're still trying to figure out , but , uh , the threat to us was real . so , carlos took the rap and went to prison for a.j . 's murder . michael : to protect you ? sabrina : yeah . michael : from who ? sabrina : [ sighs ] michael : hey , this is my father . please , i deserve to know how and why he died . who was carlos protecting you from ? sabrina : ava jerome . michael : what is that ? silas : it relaxes the uterus . it 's designed to slow or stop contractions . the idea is to give the baby some more time . ava : well , i like that idea . silas : mm . morgan : yeah , me , too . silas : i also have a medication that will speed up the baby 's lung maturity just in case the little guy or girl is born early . ava : and is that in the form of a - a pill or another needle ? silas : the latter one . ava : well , that 's -- uh ... two shots in one day . that 's nice . silas : still not a fan , i take it . ava : [ chuckles ] well , if it works , i 'll manage . silas : i 'll give it my best shot , no pun intended . ava : [ groans ] silas : take a breath . kiki : ugh . all right . [ chuckles ] now what ? silas : now we wait and see . nina : i was the apple of daddy 's eye . and you were ... the worm . it 's no surprise that daddy left me to control his millions and left his worm of a wife ... shriveled up and rotted . madeline : is that really how you see me ? nina : that 's how daddy saw you . i see you as a lying , manipulative witch . that 's how i see you . but , hey , mom , i 'm really impressed by your efforts . convincing silas that i was a corpse so he would sign off all of my fortune to you -- that was pretty good ... until you went to prison and i woke up from my coma . yeah . poor mommy , dead broke at the mercy of your son -- well , actually , he 's not your son -- who hates you even more than i -- oh , well , actually , he does n't hate you more than i do . nina : j 's opinion of you is the least of your worries , mother . the way that i see it , you have two options . number one -- you help me wrangle ava jerome 's baby in exchange for some of daddy 's millions . option two is you ... work at the local supermarket while sharing j 's apartment and his salary . whoo , wow . that is a tough one . [ sighs ] hmm ... [ lock disengages ] nathan : madeline , are you in there ? bobbie : so , brad , how do you like working at g.h . ? lucas : mom , i do n't think brad wants to talk about his job right now . brad : i do n't mind . bobbie : we could talk about yours if you had one . lucas : okay . here we go . bobbie : brad , do n't you think lucas should stop living off me and his sister ? lucas : mom ! bobbie : you know , i mean , he keeps promising that he 's gon na go out and look for work , and then he comes up with every excuse in the world not to . lucas : no , that 's not true . i 've looked . there just has n't been a good fit , yet . bobbie : okay . maybe brad could help you find one . brad : uh ... sure . i - i can , uh , check at the hospital . but , uh , i do n't know what he 'd be qualified for . in the medical field , i mean . bobbie : well , there 's always doctor . brad : [ laughs ] yeah , that 'd be ... wait , what ? bobbie : doctor -- you know , treating patients , saving lives . my son is certainly qualified . brad : he is ? bobbie : lucas has four years of medical school . brad : you went to medical school ? and finished ? bobbie : yes . brad : okay , that i 'd have remembered . bobbie : i thought you would . brad : after everything we shared when we first met , how similar our lives turned out to be , you did n't think to mention this ? bobbie : well , lucas does n't talk much about his medical degree . brad : yeah , apparently . lucas : being a doctor is n't my thing . bobbie : but you put so much time into studying . and according to the doctors that i know , he was gifted . he graduated at the top of his class . brad : uh ... wow . lucas : i do n't want to practice medicine . it 's not a crime . i 'll find something else to do . bobbie : but you have n't yet . brad : have you ever tried practicing ? bobbie : no . but he should . with your knowledge and your compassion , you would make a wonderful doctor . lucas : i do n't know if that 's true , mom . bobbie : well , i do . brad , do n't you think that 's true ? brad : that would depend on why lucas made the choice not to use his medical degree . nathan : madeline ? come on . open up . nina : he calls you madeline . [ scoffs ] think of all those millions , mother . get rid of j . nathan : what 's going on ? why did you put the chain on the door ? madeline : because of nina . silas : so far , so good . how are you feeling ? ava : better . whatever you did seems to be working . silas : okay . kiki : thank you so much , silas . ava : sending kiki to go and get you was the best decision we could have made . silas : i just wish you were in a hospital , that 's all . kiki : i told you -- she ca n't go . morgan : no . unh - unh . it 's too dangerous . silas : why ? because she 's in hiding ? who 's after you ? michael : carlos told you that ava jerome forced him to confess ? sabrina : yes . michael : how ? why ? sabrina : it is n't that far of a stretch , is it ? carlos was working for ava . he was essentially her right - hand man . michael : what , and he 's that loyal ? he 's willing to take a murder rap just because she told him to ? sabrina : like i said , ava found his weakness . michael : you and your baby . sabrina : she got him to do what she wanted by threatening us . michael : again , why ? sabrina : to cast off suspicion . michael : what , from herself ? sabrina : i -- [ chuckles ] michael : wait , are you telling me that ava jerome killed my father ? sabrina : i - i do n't know that . michael : but that 's what carlos thinks . sabrina : no , he does n't know either , not for sure . michael : what exactly did he say , word for word ? sabrina : ava never admitted to shooting aj . michael : but ... ? sabrina : but ... carlos knows for a fact that ava wanted aj quartermaine dead . sonny : are you sure you saw heather ? olivia : well , no . i mean , i guess now that you say that , i - i - i guess it could have been santa claus ! yes , sonny ! i think i know heather webber when i see her . sonny : i did n't know you were still having these visions , but you know what ? what 's going on here ? olivia : well , i did n't think i was having them either . i have n't had one in months , so why ? why would this be happening to me right now ? carly : calm down , okay ? you 're not . you just have heather webber on the brain . we were just talking about her . this is a simple case of your imagination running wild with you . olivia : i am not a five year old imagining monsters underneath my bed . i saw heather webber standing right there , in all her whacked - out glory , waving around a gigantic knife . carly : okay . you believe this is a premonition . olivia : yes , i do . carly : how is that possible ? heather is locked up . olivia : what , and she 's never escaped before ? carly : no . not from the maximum - security wing . they have an entire security team dedicated to heather . the only way she 's getting out of that hospital is in a coffin . olivia : okay , you both have every right to doubt me . i understand that . sometimes the meaning of my visions is not clear . but these premonitions are real , and they always , always come true . heather : so , what 's the plan ? you gon na bust me out or ... pay off a guard ? this is n't like miscavige . after all those comings and goings , they 've saddled me with a -- well , a very intense security detail -- a bunch of incorruptible bozos . franco : do n't you worry . i 've got everything under control . you just need to be ready to roll . heather : when ? i mean , i want to make sure i get my hair done and ... franco : it 's tomorrow . it 's halloween . heather : it is . that 's my favorite holiday . is that why you picked it ? for me ? franco : yeah . heather : oh ! you are the best son in the world ... even though you tried to kill me . hey , this is perfect . i already have an outfit picked out for the party they 're throwing for the inmates . franco : inmates ? you 're not in prison . heather : close enough . but i 'm not sure it 's proper attire for the mother of the groom . franco : it does n't matter what you wear . you could show up in a garbage bag just so long as you come through for me . heather : of course i will . what is it , exactly , that you want me to do ? heather : i want to be prepared for my part in the ceremony . will there be a mother / son dance ? i have some music in mind . franco : all will be explained at the wedding . i have prepared a riveting video presentation not to be missed , especially not by michael corinthos iii . heather : sounds delicious . franco : oh , it will be delicious . it will completely annihilate michael 's relationship with his parents . sonny and carly 's worst nightmare will finally come to life . heather : i love an explosive movie . franco : so do i. i should get going . heather : no , no , no . so soon ? franco : well , if i 'm gon na spring you , i 've got a lot of work to do . but once it 's done , you and i will have the whole day to discuss the fate that awaits carly . heather : thank you so much for having the decency to admit i was right about her . carly : i know what this is about . olivia : oh , really ? i 'm glad one of us does . carly : it 's a lame attempt to try and scare me off franco . olivia : are you kidding me ? you think i like having heather webber popping up at me like a monster in a spook house ? do n't flatter yourself . this is not about you and freako . carly : oh , that -- that 's mature . olivia : if you want to go ahead and throw your life away marrying that hot mess of a sociopath , you go ahead and be my guest , just do n't say i did n't warn you . sonny : where are you going ? olivia : i 'm gon na give the two of you a little bit of privacy . i know how sonny feels about your fiancé . i 'm sure you have a lot to discuss . sonny : okay , let 's -- let 's get a drink . come on . let 's get a drink . come on . olivia : what , us ? ! sonny : yeah , yeah . us . come here . i think you could use one at this point . as far as carly , i think i 've said everything that needs to be said . michael : why would ava want aj dead ? sabrina : i do n't know . michael : carlos must have told you something . sabrina : he did n't , michael . i 'm sorry . i even debated whether or not to even bring it up , because ... i knew that you would be desperate for answers . michael : ava came to port charles with the goal to take over elq . that was way before aj was murdered . and killing aj would n't have helped her get the company anyway . sabrina : i wish i had something more concrete . michael : wait . new york . sabrina : what ? michael : aj was killed in ava 's penthouse . but ava claims that she was in new york that night , but she could have been lying . she usually is . sabrina : should i not have said anything ? michael : no , no . i 'm -- i 'm glad you did . sabrina : i just felt like you had the right to know . look , i 'm sorry to just run off , but , um ... there 's somewhere else i need to be right now -- another wrong to take care of . are you gon na be okay ? michael : yeah , i 'm fine . sabrina : are you sure ? michael : yeah . thank you . thank you for letting me know . ava : i 'm sorry , silas . i wish i could tell you . morgan : we ca n't let you in on this . kiki : it 's not that we do n't trust you . ava : no . it 's nothing like that . morgan : no . we just -- we just do n't want you more involved than you already are . silas : but you 're in danger . ava : yes . morgan : because of your work , and of course , i do n't mean the gallery . morgan : bottom line is that if anyone finds her here , ava 's a dead woman . silas : well , they wo n't hear it from me . i 'm gon na get washed up . is the bathroom somewhere ? kiki : yeah . i 'll show you . silas : okay . morgan : hey . how are you holding up ? ava : i think it 's working . i feel so much better , morgan . kiki : i really do n't know how to thank you , again . silas : you do n't . it 's how this works , okay ? i may have missed out on the first 20 years or so , but i 'm your father . if you ever need me , i 'm gon na be there . kiki : well , that makes me very lucky . silas : i 'm the lucky one . kiki : no , really . i appreciate it . i realize that i 'm asking a lot from you -- not just with my mom 's situation , but also with what 's going on with nina . nathan : you put the chain on the door because of nina ? why ? have you heard from her ? madeline : no . no , i just wanted to be on the safe side in case she showed up . what about you ? have you been able to track her down ? nathan : i did n't want to believe you when you told me about her violent streak . madeline : why ? what happened ? nathan : nina attacked silas . madeline : oh , my god . nathan : apparently they were arguing and she knocked him out . madeline : [ sighs ] nathan : look , i got to keep looking for her . who knows what she could do next . madeline : james , wait . lucas : this is not my favorite topic . bobbie : well , you know , maybe not , but it needs to be addressed . especially now that push is coming to shove when it comes to making a living . brad : why do n't you want to be a doctor ? lucas : i told you about my adoptive father , tony jones , right ? brad : yeah . that guy 's a legend around the hospital . a surgeon , right ? bobbie : he was a brilliant surgeon . lucas : yeah , see ? that 's just it . i can never measure up . it 's , like , statistically impossible . bobbie : well , first of all , you do n't know that , not until you at least try . and second of all , tony was a neurosurgeon . you have n't even chosen a specialty . you could be in an entirely different field if you wanted to be . lucas : i 'm guessing there 's a `` third of all . `` bobbie : i have no doubt you would be every bit as brilliant as the man who raised you . you certainly were in medical school . lucas : yeah , good in school is one thing . saving lives is a whole nother thing . i - i do n't know that the talent translates . maybe it does n't . bobbie : why would you even think that ? lucas : how many college quarterbacks make it in the nfl ? not many . bobbie : we 're not talking about football . lucas : we 're talking about something a hell of a lot more important . i 'm not gon na ask someone to trust me with their life if i do n't believe that i 'm the best to save them . bobbie : but you could be the best ! brad , do n't you think -- lucas : mom , enough . enough ! mom ! brad : look , look , look . i - i love the idea of working with your son , but ... it 's entirely your decision . bobbie : you know , why do n't you just talk to chief obrecht ? would that be so hard ? lucas : oh , no , that 's another thing . i do not want to work with that lunatic . brad : she threw me off a parapet , and i still work for her . bobbie : what ? ! brad : bygones . lucas : oh , my gosh . when did this night go so terribly wrong ? i -- okay , if i agree to talk to dr. obrecht , can we finally go and go to trivia night ? brad : absolutely . lucas : done . mom , you happy ? bobbie : i am very happy , and your new boyfriend definitely has my stamp of approval . lucas : yeah , mine , too , despite the blatant double team . brad : who , me ? lucas : mm - hmm . bobbie : i just wish i could find someone to team up with me to talk some sense into your sister . olivia : you can not possibly be as calm as you 're acting about carly and franco . sonny : i like it better when you call him freako . i 'm fine . everything -- well , what do you want me to say ? i 'm fine . olivia : how is this fine ? sonny : i just -- i just do n't think the wedding 's gon na happen . carly : hey ! franco : there you are . carly : hi ! franco : hi . oh , look . it 's sonny . carly : yeah . who cares ? [ chuckles ] so , long day ? franco : yeah . really long . but very productive . you would n't believe how much work i got done . guard : did you have a nice visit with your son ? heather : he 's my pride and joy . guard : you must be tired after all the excitement . time to get you back to your room so you can rest up . heather : yes . so i can dream about halloween and how nice it would be to be out enjoying it instead of locked up in here . kiki : it sounds like nina 's totally lost it . silas : in a big way . kiki : i 'm so sorry . what do you think 's gon na happen ? silas : i do n't know . i still have n't heard anything back from detective west . just hope like hell the cops can track nina down . nathan : what is it ? you think you know where she might be ? madeline : i 'm so sorry . i should have told you about her before . we could have avoided all this . nathan : yeah , well , you did n't . and now it 's too late . look , if i do n't find nina soon , she 's bound to hurt somebody else . silas : appreciate all your concern . it means a lot . [ cell phone rings ] kiki : oh , sorry . it 's michael . silas : take it . i 'm gon na go see how your mom 's doing . kiki : okay . michael , hey . michael : what are you doing right now ? kiki : uh , no - not much . why ? is something wrong ? michael : i - i - i do n't know . i just found something out . i , um -- i need to talk to you about your mother . madeline : good luck finding your sister . nathan : thanks . madeline : and in the meantime , i 'll just -- i 'll just stay here in case she shows up . nathan : look , if she does , you call me right away , and do not let her in . madeline : i wo n't . nathan : all right . put the lock on the door before i go . madeline : i will . nina : [ claps ] brava , mommy . you almost had me going . does ... this mean ... you 're gon na help me take ava 's baby ? madeline : yes , i will . [ next_on ] nathan : ( to rosalie ) that could be nina . nina : ( to madeline ) i just need you to fix this for me . jordan : ( to tj ) what 's with the attitude ? michael : ( to kiki ) your mother might be the one who killed aj . ava : ( to silas ) for a smart man , you really are such an idiot . sonny : ( to shawn ) franco gave us heather 's motive . franco : ( to carly ) i know what 's going on between you and sonny .

[ scene_break ] julian : now the police do n't have any reason to question me about mob - related business anymore . lucas : oh . well , i 'm glad to hear that . julian : well ... lucas : i was afraid you were gon na have to get furlough from pentonville just to come to my wedding . julian : oh , yeah ? so , congratulations ! lucas : [ chuckles ] julian : you and brad are finally getting married . lucas : oh , well , no , no . not yet , but soon . soon . julian : for god 's sake , lucas , look , i do n't mean to sound harsh , but , i do n't know , maybe it 's time that you admitted to yourself that , you know , brad might be playing you for a fool here . [ keyboard clacking ] [ scene_break ] lulu : the worst part about dillon declaring his love for me was n't even the kiss . it was the fact that he was trashing dante . maxie : i just do n't understand how dillon thought that would work . i mean , he writes beautifully and truthfully about relationships , but in real life [ scoffs ] tragic . so , what did he say ? lulu : see , that 's the thing . he did n't even get that specific . maxie : `` ambiguity is the hallmark of a weak argument . `` abraham lincoln . lulu : mm - hmm . dillon kept going on and on about how he 's better for me and how dante does n't deserve me . dillon : dante does n't deserve you . and i told dante that , too . and i told him why . i assume he told you that ? lulu : no . but then again , why would he ? dillon : if he told you , you would know . maxie : all right , dillon , that 's it . put up or shut up . what could dante have possibly done beyond one stupid kiss that would make him so unworthy of lulu ? first nathan , and now you . is there a reason that nobody wants to tell me their secrets ? dillon : uh , yeah . because you 're a blab . maxie : i might be that , but you 're worse . you 're making harsh , hurtful insinuations about lulu 's marriage . are -- are you gon na back any of that up with facts ? dillon : not unless dante gives me a reason to . maxie : okay , translation -- dillon is lying . he 's got nothing on dante . [ scene_break ] dante : the man has a point . lies have a way of mushrooming out of control . olivia : i get it . i do . it just hurts . dante : [ sighs ] i know , ma . olivia : [ sniffles ] port charles is my home . and , i mean , my work is here , my life is here . and it 's a life that i love , so i had to make a choice . it was either live in brooklyn with ned , in hiding , without you , or live here with you and without ned . and i chose my family . i want -- i want ned . but i need you . [ sniffles ] dante : we need you here , too ... ma . i just ca n't help worrying that you 're taking a huge risk ... [ sighs ] ... keeping leo so close to julian . [ sighs ] sometimes , no matter how hard you try , the truth ... comes out in the end . olivia : are we still talking about my lies here ? or are you hiding something yourself ? [ scene_break ] lucas : look , i appreciate your concern , but you do n't need to go all papa bear on me about brad . julian : all right . so , is this martinez woman holding up the divorce ? because if -- you know , i can talk to her . in or out of the business , i can be very persuasive . lucas : rosalie is not the issue . julian : then what is it ? lucas : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] brad : when i told lucas the truth , it was awful . but we 've hashed it all out , and he 's actually willing to wait for me until i can extricate myself from this marriage . alexis : so your parents wanted you to marry a woman . the world is changing very quickly now . is it possible that they may have softened their position on this ? brad : [ sighs ] alexis : so i will help you with your divorce . brad : [ sighs ] see , that 's the thing -- my parents are actually the least of my problems . if i get a divorce , i could end up going to prison for years and years . [ scene_break ] kevin : i 'm so sorry i missed duke 's funeral . i was out of the country . anna : that 's all right . you know , you ca n't be expected to be everywhere all the time . [ chuckles ] kevin : i 've been wondering how you 're doing . anna : not good . not good . kevin : come on . [ door opens ] kevin : [ sighs ] you know , it 's -- it 's perfectly understandable to be still grieving for duke . anna : i miss him every day , you know ? i think about him every night , all night . kevin : anything in particular ? anna : his death . the brutal , cold - blooded way he was killed . [ sighs ] kevin , this is gon na sound really strange , you being a man of science and everything , but , um ... i swear ... i 'm being haunted . [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] sonny : at first , i thought it was morgan who killed rivera , especially after he almost took out julian . but he 's backed off , right ? max : do n't worry about morgan . we 're keeping an eye on him . sonny : [ sighs ] the thing is , you know , if carlos did shoot me , we know who ordered the hit -- julian . max : or ava , since she 's back in charge of the jerome organization . sonny : but i 'm not convinced that carlos was the shooter . max : whoever did it might try it again . sonny : all right . max : you okay with the people we got guarding you ? sonny : yeah , that 's fine . and i 'm glad milo 's around . max : [ chuckles ] truthfully , boss , i think he 's glad to have an excuse to come back . i mean , he 's got a great girlfriend , but , uh , civilian life is pretty much a bust for him . sonny : now that he 's back , you think you can do more specialized work ? max : you need me to do a job ? sonny : i want you to find out who went behind my back and killed carlos . [ knock on door ] [ door opens ] carly : hey . patrick 's ready to see you . max : i 'm glad you 're looking so good , boss . sonny : yeah , thanks for keeping an eye on things , max . max : my pleasure . i know we 'll be back on top again soon . see you later . patrick : well , well , i hear you two got married last night . congratulations . sonny : yeah , yeah . i 'm on a winning streak , so we just got to keep things going . just give me the release papers so i can , you know , go home to my wife ... today . [ scene_break ] dillon : uh , what are you doing ? lulu : decorating for halloween . maxie : duh . dillon : but we 're filming here between now and halloween . lulu : [ scoffs ] what am i supposed to do -- not get the boat ready for an upcoming holiday ? dillon : well , you ca n't have these decorations up while i 'm filming . lulu : i depend on the income from the big events that we throw , like the annual halloween bash . i have to do this to keep me and the boat above water . dillon : but i 'm already paying you . lulu : actually , if you would check your contract , you 'd see that you 're supposed to be done filming by october 31st . dillon : but i have had a million delays and interruptions , and halloween is still days away . i got -- i - i ca n't have these decorations up in my shot . lulu : work around it . dillon : that is not fair , and you know it . lulu : oh , just like trashing my husband and kissing me without my permission was fair ? dillon : oh , that 's what this is about . lulu : no , what this is about is me making a living on halloween . dillon : oh , please , if you 're gon na be petty , at least own it . maxie : okay , time out . both of you , to your corners . [ scene_break ] dante : [ grunts ] you know , ma , your story about adopting a little boy who just happens to be the same age as leo was when he `` died `` is n't gon na hold up for very long . once that kid starts to look like jerome , he 's gon na start asking some questions . olivia : he already did . that 's why i had to blurt out that story about the adoption in the first place . luckily , julian bought it . dante : good . olivia : you know , alexis , on the other hand -- she made a point of chatting me up at the metro court bar . she was n't exactly accusing me of anything , but she was definitely making insinuations . dante : did you convince her to back off ? olivia : eh , she walked out with her tail between her legs . [ sighs ] at least , i think she did . [ scene_break ] alexis : so , if you divorce or get an annulment ... brad : all bets are off , and we could both wind up doing some hard time . alexis : did you commit a felony ? brad : oh , yeah . alexis : what exactly did you do ? brad : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] julian : okay , you just tell me what the problem is , and i will fix it . i will clear the way for you and brad to be married , and then then we can see if brad really wants to marry you . lucas : thank you , dad . i appreciate that , but brad assures me he 's handling it . julian : all right . you know , i just want my kids to ... get what they want . lucas : i can not believe how far you 've come . julian : what ? lucas : man , when i think back about the day i told you that i was gay ... julian : okay , okay , okay . let 's not bring that up . not my proudest moment . lucas : and now you 're getting ready to attend your first same - sex wedding . julian : i ca n't even believe that . lucas : i mean , it 's , uh ... it really is nuts . julian : a lot of things have happened since i first came back here to port charles , that 's for sure . lucas : yeah , from bigoted mobster to open - minded , legit dude . julian : well , i did n't know i was gon na have so many reasons to change . i was given a lot of gifts all at once . a lot of people to love and do right by . and , to top it all off , i was lucky to somehow convince alexis to love me . i am one blessed dude . i 'll tell you that much . lucas : well , we 're just as blessed to have you , pop . julian : thanks . it means a lot . [ scene_break ] kevin : duke was the love of your life . it 's natural to think you see him , to imagine that he 's with you . it 's a coping mechanism . as long as you acknowledge that it 's not real , there 's nothing to worry about . anna : i would n't mind if it was duke i was seeing . i 'd welcome that , actually , just to see his smile again , even if it was in my imagination , just for a split second . that would be everything to me . it 's not duke i 'm hallucinating . it 's his killer -- carlos rivera . [ scene_break ] carly : why do n't we let patrick update us on your condition before we start pushing to go home ? sonny : i know i 've got a ways to go before i 'm 100 % , but i 'm feeling much better . patrick : well , that 's a good sign , but , sonny , there 's a lot -- sonny : see , the doctor says so , carly . just , i 'll go home , and i 'll get my legs working in no time . patrick : okay , your recovery is gon na require more than a change of scenery . we need to get together on a comprehensive plan to get you back -- sonny : i got to get out of the hospital , patrick . i got urgent business . i want to get home and be a good husband to carly . we got to fight ava jerome for the custody of -- of avery , my daughter . just give me the release papers , and we 'll just get this going . patrick : i 'm sorry , sonny . but you are nowhere near ready to go home yet . [ scene_break ] anna : i thought i saw carlos on the docks . kevin : well , that 's where they found his body . that would make sense . anna : no , that 's what does n't make sense . is the fact that the medical examiner concluded the body had only been dead a few weeks . kevin : and why is that odd ? anna : all right , kevin , as your patient , everything we say in here is confidential , right ? kevin : all of it . i 'm only required to alert the authorities if a patient threatens to hurt someone . anna : what if a crime 's already been committed ? kevin : well , that 's a gray area constantly challenged by law enforcement , but in almost every case , confidentiality remains intact . the question is , why ? what are you trying to tell me ? [ scene_break ] patrick : sonny , you suffered a critical gunshot wound . sonny : i know , patrick . i was there . patrick : that injury led to an aneurysm in your brain that nearly killed you . you have had two major surgeries that have led to complications that are gon na need continual monitoring . you have n't begun to regain the use of your legs yet . sonny : because you got me cooped up in this hospital ! patrick : come on , sonny , that is not why . you know that . you think you 're gon na go home and magically regain your mobility ? carly : okay , what do you recommend , patrick ? patrick : you need to get the house ready for a wheelchair . you need lifts . you need ramps . you need somebody to take a look at that chair and make sure that it 's comfortable for you . sonny : why go to all the trouble if i 'm gon na -- if -- that 's temporary , 'cause i 'm gon na beat this thing . carly : okay , you 're not listening to patrick . he 's trying to explain to you -- sonny : no , i 'm listening . every word . i just do n't agree . [ scene_break ] brad : i 've never told anyone about this . only rosalie and a few others know . alexis : well , if you want me to help you , you 're gon na have to tell me . brad : i want to . i - i do . it 's just -- it 's not easy . julian : alexis . what are you doing here ? alexis : uh , just getting some lab results on a case i 'm working with . lucas : hey . brad : hey . lucas : you got a minute ? dad 's taking off . apparently he 's got something important to do . brad : yeah , i 've got a few minutes . uh , so , i guess that 's all for now ? alexis : right . so , i 'm free now . julian : mm . alexis : unless , of course , you have to deal with that important errand . [ cell phone ringing ] julian : yeah , about ... [ sighs ] oh , um , excuse me . [ scene_break ] olivia : leo was gon na grow up here , safe in port charles , surrounded by his family . [ chuckles ] dante : it 'll be great for rocco to be close to his uncle . olivia : hmm . dante : even if they are n't gon na be aware ... olivia : ahh . dante : ... that they share a biological connection . olivia : they 're still gon na be family , honey . they 're gon na be our family . dante : mm - hmm . and , uh , the family might be getting a little bit bigger . [ chuckles ] olivia : what are you saying ? dante : well , uh , i think we 're gon na go ahead with that second child . we got the all - clear from a doctor , and we 're gon na have a consultation with the fertility specialist about implanting our embryo . olivia : ohh ! [ chuckles ] congratulations . well , that really takes some of the sting out of losing ned . thank god . i was starting to worry that there was some kind of problem between you and lulu . you were acting so strange . is there something that you 're not telling me ? dante : [ sighs ] you do n't miss a thing , do you , ma ? olivia : no , i do n't . i can read you like a book . so -- so tell me . is there something going on between you and lulu ? [ scene_break ] maxie : in light of what happened with you and lulu -- dillon : and that would n't have happened if you had n't betrayed my confidence . maxie : okay , yes , i did tell lulu about your feelings for her . but i do n't recall forcing you to trash dante or stick your tongue in her mouth . did i do that ? dillon : no . maxie : thank you . therefore , in light of the upcoming halloween festivities , i think it 's in everybody 's best interest that we find another place to shoot the movie . dillon : i ca n't ! i 'm already hemorrhaging money due to all these delays . maxie : that 's because you freak out every time you 're in lulu 's airspace . i get that you 're in the throes of unrequited love , but , dillon , you 're the director . you need to man up and direct . clearly , that ca n't happen on the haunted star , so we need to shoot the movie elsewhere . dillon : how ? hmm ? i do n't have the budget to start over somewhere else , okay ? if i ca n't finish this film here , the entire movie will be dead in the water . maxie : oh , dillon , must i remind you what i unfortunately witnessed yesterday ? dillon : poor choice of words . sorry . maxie : [ sighs ] dillon : but , maxie , there 's something you are not considering . if this movie folds , you 're out of a job . maxie : if we shoot somewhere else , i wo n't be . dillon : we can not shoot somewhere else , maxie , okay ? so , yeah , you will , and so will everybody else that 's been working on this movie with us . do you really want to let them all down like that ? do you really want to let my dream die like that ? lulu , i am sorry , okay ? ca n't you forgive me ? let me finish my movie here . [ scene_break ] julian : yeah , yeah . so it 's a done deal ? great . listen , thank you for keeping this quiet the whole time . you bet . alexis : all right , what is going on ? julian : what do you think is going on ? alexis : i do n't know what to think . you tell me . i mean , you repeatedly say that you 're out of the mob . julian : that 's correct . i am . alexis : so , what gives ? clearly you 're hiding something from me . frankly , i 'm not really okay with that . so if you want me to trust you , you 're gon na have to tell me what it is . julian : okay , okay , fine . i will tell you . just not here . i will tell you everything once we get home . so , what do you think ? alexis : um , i think it 's -- it 's very nice . it 's ... spectacular , really . w - who are we visiting ? julian : we 're not . alexis : okay , uh , then why are we here ? i thought we were going home so you could come clean about your clandestine goings on . julian : well , we are home , and i am coming clean . alexis : what ? julian : this . this right here is the reason for all those mysterious phone calls . see , i was on the phone with contractors and designers , just making sure that everything was perfect for you . this is your new house , alexis . [ door opens ] julian : welcome home . [ scene_break ] dante : uh , lulu and i hit a bit of a rough patch . olivia : what happened ? dante : look , ma , all you need to know is that i was wrong . it was my fault , and i 'm trying to make it up to my wife . olivia : okay . well , are you sure ? 'cause you still seem a little worried . dante : every time i think that we 're getting back to normal , i have to ... put out another fire . olivia : what kind of fire ? dante : [ sighs ] well , for one thing , dillon quartermaine told lulu that he has feelings for her , and then he kissed her . [ scene_break ] lulu : after everything that 's happened , i do n't feel comfortable with you filming here anymore . dillon : look , lulu , i promise that what i did before will not happen again . and if that means that we only discuss stuff about the movie while working on the set -- lulu : you know what i 'm having a problem with ? this whole apology has nothing to do with actually regretting what you 've done . dillon : yes , it does . lulu : see , i think that if you did n't need to shoot the movie here , you would back everything you said about my husband . i think that you would still back that kiss . maxie : well , i do n't think that 's the case . lulu : i think you probably think that i am doing this for dante , because you said bad things about him , but dante would never ask me to stop production . this decision is mine . and i 'm sorry , but it 's what i have to do . dillon : aw , man , i am such an idiot . maxie : okay , lulu , hold on a second . this is n't just dillon 's project . this is my movie , too . dillon : forget it , maxie . it 's over . maxie : no , i refuse to accept that . if we ca n't shoot here , then we need to get the money to film someplace else . dillon : i have already gotten $ 500,000 from my father . i ca n't ask him for anything else . maxie : why ? what 's the worst he could do besides say no ? oh , we could ask lulu 's brother . nikolas is loaded . dillon : nikolas already offered to fund my movie , but in exchange , he wanted my shares of elq , and i ca n't put the family business in jeopardy like that . maxie : well , if we only knew other people with money , like rich relatives . dillon : yeah ? maxie : oh , come on , dillon . you 're a quartermaine . dillon : i ca n't just pump my family for bucks . maxie : then what 's the point of being related to those back - biting lunatics ? dillon : well , what about you ? do n't you know anybody who 's loaded and would like to be a patron of the arts and of your acting career ? maxie : of course , i do n't know anyone like that . dillon : then we 're done . maxie : okay , fine , fine . if we ca n't get friends and family to help us , we 'll just have total strangers pay for it . lulu : you 're going to panhandle ? maxie : yeah , only legit and on the internet . dillon : like crowdsourcing ? maxie : bingo . indie filmmakers do it all the time to fund their movies . there 's actually a website called fabphilanthropy that people get online and search for projects that need their contribution . lulu : how do they make their money back ? maxie : they do n't . the artist just gives them , like , a small part in the movie or their name in the credits or a free dvd , depending on what they give . dillon : it ca n't hurt . lulu : i actually think it 's a great idea . it could potentially solve a lot of problems . maxie : great . then you could kick off the campaign by making the halloween party a benefit . lulu : what ? maxie : come on , lulu . scoffs ] now that dillon 's movie is homeless , do n't you have it in your heart to do this ? [ scene_break ] kevin : anna . have you committed a crime ? if you have , you can tell me . anna : duke and i had finally got back together , you know , after his thing with , um -- kevin : with lucy . i know . it happened some time after we were divorced . i 've dealt with it . this is about you . anna : so , we were gon na go away . we were gon na spend the rest of our lives together , away from all this -- the killing and the mob wars and the violence . but by the time he reached me on the dock , he had already been shot by carlos . i tried to save him . [ voice breaking ] i called for help , and i sat with him , and i told him that he had to hold on . but he could n't . kevin : it 's okay . go on . anna : i ca n't go on ! i ca n't go on , kevin , like this ! i close my eyes , and i see blood and i hear gunshots , and i see carlos . i see ... and i hate it . i 'm anna devane , for god 's sake ! wsb ! and an agency liaison , and i was police commissioner . i have upheld the law . [ sniffles ] and , yes ... i 've taken lives . i have . i 've done it for the greater good . and now i 'm falling apart , and i hate it . i hate feeling weak like this ! kevin : it 's not weakness , anna . anna : yes , it is ! because i desperately need something to help me sleep . i just want something to take the edge off , because i want to stop remembering ! [ scene_break ] patrick : sonny , i 'm not giving you my opinion . i 'm stating medical facts . it is a fact that you 've got a long road ahead of you before you recover . it is a fact that sending you home would not only be reckless on my end , but it could set you back even further . it is a fact that you need to understand my plan to get you healthy , or your condition and your life could become much worse . and none of this becomes any less true , because you do n't agree with me . am i making myself clear ? carly : crystal . you could n't be more clear . patrick : look , i 'm gon na be direct with you , okay ? you need to understand something . you are not the man that you were before you got in here . sonny : i will be . patrick : oh , well , i appreciate that . and that is a fantastic outlook for the future , but right now you need to take some time , and you need to listen to what i 'm saying . i 'll leave you two alone . [ door closes ] carly : okay , i know that was n't the news that either one of us wanted to hear , but we 're gon na deal with it , and we 're gon na get -- [ knock on door ] carly : you know , we 're in the middle of something right now . max : yeah , i 'm sorry . i can come back later . sonny : no , no , come on in . uh , i just want to talk to him about some business . carly : can you discuss that lat -- sonny : just give me a minute , will you ? just one minute , carly , please . carly : okay . [ exhales ] he 's all yours . [ door closes ] max : good report from the doctor ? sonny : oh , yeah , great . max : excellent . so , i made some calls , but i still have n't gotten to the bottom of the rivera thing . sonny : oh , we 're gon na deal with that later . i just need you to do something for me . max : anything , boss . sonny : i need you to get me out of this bed . put me on that wheelchair . [ scene_break ] alexis : wow . it 's beau -- it 's beautiful . how did you ... ? julian : months of secret calls . [ chuckles ] alexis : why did you ... ? julian : well , i know how much you loved your old house , and since i was the reason why it was destroyed , i 've been wanting to buy you a new home ever since . now , it might not have a lake in the backyard , but it ...

[ scene_break ] [ door closes ] carly : michael , who was at the door ? michael : [ sighs ] the bartender from the floating rib . he was , um -- he was looking for you at the hotel , and t - they told him that he could find you here . carly : what did he want ? michael : he wanted to give you these -- morgan 's keys . he , uh -- he said he feels terrible about cutting morgan off and taking his keys . i told him he has no reason to apologize , he was just doing his job , you know , acting responsible . there 's no way he could 've known . carly : no way he could 've known that morgan was going to steal julian 's car and end up dead because of sonny . michael : mom . mom , stop . do n't do th -- carly : do n't tell me to stop ! okay ? do n't tell me to stop . because i just keep going over this in my head , and it does n't make sense to me ! why would morgan go on a bender that night ? why would he start drinking ? why were n't his medications working ? ! [ scene_break ] ava : oh . lithium . yes . ah ! damn it ! [ grunts ] [ gasps ] nelle : miss jerome ? what are you doing in morgan 's room ? ava : nelle , y - you scared the life out of me . nelle : are you looking for something ? did you drop something ? [ scene_break ] nathan : charlotte , honey , i think mommy and her friend need to talk , okay ? let 's go watch that video . griffin : our daughter is confused , and why should n't she be ? she finds out she has a different father every few days . claudette : that 's not fair ! griffin : it 's anything but ! why should charlotte believe a - anything you told her ? why should any of us ? you 've been telling lie after lie since you 've been in port charles ! claudette : yes ! i lied , okay ? ! but when i told you the other day that i wished that charlotte was your daughter , that was the truth . griffin : then why did you manipulate the paternity test to show that nathan was the father ? claudette : because he 's a cop . he comes from a wealthy family . i honestly thought that she would be safest with him as her dad . griffin : i guess that makes sense . claudette : it does . thank you . but now that everything 's all out in the open , there 's no time -- there 's no reason to waste time on -- on anger , okay ? let 's just move forward . nathan : no matter how well - deserved it is ? claudette : you and i just simply have to work together to keep charlotte safe . nathan : right . from valentin cassadine . claudette : why is that so hard for you to believe ? griffin : look , y - you say you 're all about us working together , which i 'm sure , in your mind , means us being together for charlotte . claudette : not just for charlotte . because it 's what we both want . you want it , too , if you would just allow yourself to feel it . griffin : an hour ago , you were ready to walk away from charlotte and not look back . nathan : what ? griffin : yeah . she could n't wait to run off with me and leave you and maxie to raise charlotte by yourselves . claudette : that 's not exactly how it happened . nathan : i 'm pretty sure it was . griffin : and you were n't gon na tell her that she was mine , either , were you ? claudette : well , yes . t - that would defeat the purpose in making nathan believe that she was his . okay , you caught me ! nathan : claudette , every time i think you ca n't get any lower , you start to dig . griffin : maxie was right . we ca n't trust anything you say or anything you do . [ scene_break ] maxie : [ muffled screams ] gary : what ? you think i was n't prepared for this ? you think i did n't know you were gon na fight ? well , now that i got you , i know what i need to do . maxie : no !

[ breathes sharply ] starting with what ? carly : the drinking . you said morgan was drinking . how much was he drinking ? michael : enough for the bartender to cut him off . carly : and kiki -- you talked to her . kiki said that morgan was upset , because he thought something was going on between her and dillon . michael : apparently , it was a misunderstanding . carly : okay , so what did he think happened , and what really happened ? michael : there 's no way to know for sure w - what he thought or why . carly : we can trace his movements , okay ? i need to know the timeline of his last day ! okay ? morgan was upset . sonny and i had a big fight with him , because he was kicked out of school for turning in a paper that he bought online . and what about how the whole `` back to school `` thing went south so fast ? michael : well , he was expelled . you had every right to be upset . carly : i 'm just trying to get into your brother 's head , okay ? because everything was going really well . okay ? morgan would n't just go on some bender and start drinking , not if his medications were still working . michael : okay , well , do we know he was , for sure , still taking them ? i know he said he was , but we do n't know for sure . carly : i must have asked him 15 times in the past two weeks , and he assured me that he was taking them . he was still going to therapy . he was supposed to have his blood work done that day . michael : what are you doing ? carly : i 'm getting some answers . [ scene_break ] sonny : [ groans ] [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] ava : i know that you 're new to town , so you might not know this , but morgan and i -- w -- there was a time that he and i were friends . we were very good friends , actually . and now that he 's gone , i just -- i could n't help but look around in here , you know , before i went to check on avery . nelle : does mr. corinthos know that you 're in here ? ava : uh , i would n't tell sonny . he 's been through so much , and i - i do n't want to stress him any further . nelle : [ inhales deeply ] okay . i guess i 'll help you find whatever you 're looking for . ava : do n't bother . you know , it 's really not a problem . i said do n't bother ! sonny : nelle , is there a problem ? nelle : we 're in here . sonny : [ sighs ] uh , i thought y - you were going up to avery 's room ? ava : i was . i - i am . i - i just w -- sonny : do n't lie to me . not tonight , ava . why are you in here ? ! [ scene_break ] claudette : ca n't we just move past this ? we need to figure out what we 're gon na do next . griffin : just -- i - i need a minute . okay ? just give me a minute to catch up . this was all just dropped on me five seconds ago . claudette : i 'm sorry to drop a daughter on you . nathan : you were n't even gon na tell him about charlotte , at all ! griffin : you know , it 's ironic , but before you came to the gym today , i was thinking -- in fact , i 've been thinking for a long time about recommitting to the church . claudette : [ laughs ] grow up , griffin . nathan : oh , and t - that 's how you talk to somebody about their faith ? claudette : when it 's just a fantasy ? when it 's a lame excuse to keep you from living a real , passionate life , you 're damn right i do ! you were never gon na go back to the church , child or no child . griffin : i do n't know that . claudette : i kissed you today , griffin . you kissed me back . you told me that you wanted me . you were one breath away from leaving the church and this crummy , little town forever and running away with me . nathan : oh , well , congratulations , claudette . you seduced the celibate guy again . you know , you are -- you are almost as good at that as you are at lying about everything . claudette : you know what , nathan ? since maxie 's gone out of her way to make this not about you , why do n't you keep your opinions to yourself ? ! nathan : i just do n't want what happened to me to happen to griffin , which is why your first move should be -- claudette : is to protect charlotte . okay ? 'cause right now we could all be in danger . [ scene_break ] maxie : [ muffled screams ] gary : see , i needed a place to take you in case i did n't get what i wanted at the hotel ... in case , shall we say , you need to be persuaded . maxie : [ screams ] gary : but i hope you 're gon na be a good little girl , and you 're gon na tell me everything i want to know . maxie : [ screams ] gary : otherwise , this is gon na go very -- shh . very badly for you . do you understand ? maxie : [ muffled shout ] gary : marvelous . well , now , i 'm gon na take this little gag out of your mouth , and you can scream as loud as you want , to which no one 's gon na hear , and then you 're gon na tell me what i want to know . okay ? where did you stash the little girl ? [ scene_break ] andré : i 'm glad you called . i 've been meaning to offer my condolences in person . i 'm so sorry for your loss . michael : and we appreciate that . andré : morgan was a very special young man , and i 'm terrible sorry i was n't able to prevent this tragedy . carly : thank you . um , i asked you to come by because i 'm trying to make sense of what happened ... andré : of course . carly : ... and how it happened . so if you could just tell us the results of morgan 's blood work . andré : unfortunately , no , i ca n't . michael : what ? are you still bound by confidentiality -- andré : i ca n't tell you because there were no tests . i requested the results myself , but morgan never showed up to get his blood drawn . carly : he just blew it off ? andré : i 'm sorry , but , yes , he did . i have been looking for answers myself , but there 's nothing . carly : i disagree with you . the fact that morgan was drinking , and he did n't show up for his blood work proves that his meds were n't working . andré : it 's possible , but there 's no way to know , for sure . carly : okay , if you ca n't give me the answers i 'm looking for , then you tell me this -- why did you let my son leave the freedman clinic ? 'cause he clearly was n't well . [ scene_break ] nelle : miss jerome was just looking around . she dropped something , and i was helping her find it . sonny : what 'd you drop ? ava : my phone . sonny : oh . but i -- i have it , so ... nelle , i 'm very sorry that i - i snapped at you like that . being in this room here is very emotional for me , and when you appeared behind me so suddenly , i just ... sonny : you did n't answer the question . ava : no , i did . my phone . i have it . sonny : oh , no , no , no . not -- not that question . nelle : i 'm gon na leave you two alone . sonny : [ sighs ] ava , ava . why are you in morgan 's room ? ava : come on , sonny . you know why . [ scene_break ] maxie : i swear , i do n't have any idea what you 're talking about . gary : i do n't think you understand the situation ! so let me enlighten you ! you do n't leave here until you tell me where the little girl is , claudette . maxie : [ laughs ] oh . i am not claudette . [ scene_break ] claudette : the first thing we have to do is get charlotte out of port charles , which must be a relief to you , because you wo n't have to take a bullet for a child that is n't yours . nathan : ah , i would take the bullet anyway . claudette : oh , you 're so noble . but if griffin and i can leave with charlotte in the next few days , i know how to get back underneath the radar , and we 'll all be safe . nathan : wait . so you 're asking griffin to leave the church and medicine to , what -- to live a life on the run and off the grid ? griffin : no , no . we do n't have to decide anything just now . claudette : yes , we do . griffin : n -- there 's somebody we can call that 'll know exactly what to do about this . claudette : who ? griffin : anna . nathan : absolutely . claudette : who the hell is anna ? griffin : she used to be married to my dad , and she also happens to be ex - wsb . nathan : and she was police commissioner when i signed on with the pcpd , and she has experience dealing with the cassadines . claudette , honestly , there is no one better that we could take this to . that 's a good idea . claudette : no . it is n't . [ scene_break ] sonny : you got two minutes to see avery , and then you just go home . you understand ? ava : yeah . sonny : and ... do n't ever pull a stunt like this again . [ exhales deeply ] [ scene_break ] carly : you said that morgan 's bipolar disorder was under control and that , between therapy and medication , that morgan would be able to manage his condition . andré : right . carly : you said it was safe for morgan to leave freedman . andré : because at the time the medications were working . his blood work at the clinic confirmed this . morgan was thinking clearly . he was making rational decisions . michael : it was only in the last three weeks that he started to seem a little off . carly : okay , guys , i 'm not crazy here . there was something different about morgan , okay ? and it started when he up and decided to go back to school . he was impulsive , h - he was moody , he was sleeping more in the afternoon , and i was worried sick about him ! but he assured me he was taking his medication and that he was going to therapy with you , so please , doctor , please explain it to me how you did not know something was wrong . andré : looking back at -- i find morgan 's emotional trajectory over the past few weeks to be very confusing . to be honest , i 've never seen anything quite like it . [ scene_break ] nelle : is everything okay ? sonny : yeah , it will be , as soon as ava leaves . nelle : okay , well , in case i watch avery again , i need to know , is it okay if ava just stops by to see her ? sonny : absolutely not . she does n't get to see my daughter unless there 's supervision . nelle : sounds like you hate her . sonny : what was your first clue ? nelle : well , there are different kinds of hate . there 's the hate that 's the flip side of love , where the person just gets to you , you know , gets under your skin . sonny : oh , yeah . nelle : then there 's the hate when you 're feel angry or betrayed . somebody you trusted just double - crossed you . it 's all mixed up with feelings of regret and wishing that things could have been different . sonny : yeah . nelle : but the way you look at ava ... you 're not mixed up , there 's no regret . it 's pure , ice cold . it 's almost as if to say the way that you hate her is ... dangerous . sonny : `` dangerous `` is the right word . nelle : so , how did you have a child together ? sonny : it 's a long , ugly story , which makes me look bad , and it makes ava look worse . the great part of the story is that little girl upstairs . she 's -- she 's a miracle , and i 'm gon na do everything to protect her . nelle : um , from ava ? sonny : ava is toxic . she ruins everything she touches . nelle : now , does that mean morgan ? she said that she and morgan were , like , good friends , and that 's why she was in his room . sonny : morgan was never ava 's friend . she manipulated him , she seduced him , turned him against his family . she tr -- even tricked him to betray his own girlfriend . and i 'm gon na tell you something about -- about morgan . he -- he had a generous heart . he was trustworthy . and he was vulnerable , and she took advantage of that . well , let me tell you something -- what goes around comes around . all the pain that she 's caused , she will pay . you say that my heart is -- is cold ? it is -- it is frozen . [ laughs ] it 's arctic . it 's not gon na soften . it 's not gon na thaw . i will hate ava ... for the rest of my life . [ footsteps approach ] [ scene_break ] nathan : anna is the most qualified person that we know . okay ? and besides , she has government connections . she can help you get into hiding , where no one can ever find you . griffin : not even valentin cassadine . claudette : okay , okay , okay , okay , okay . this might be a better idea than the one i had an hour ago . griffin : great . i 'll give her a call . claudette : no ! no , wait ! griffin : i wo n't say anything about charlotte over the phone . claudette : no , it 's not that . i just -- i - i need a second . i - i need time to process this . you guys just sprung it on me . griffin : what have you been doing to us ? nathan : [ laughs ] really ? claudette : what do you guys need to hear ? ! that i was wrong ? ! fine ! i was wrong , okay ? ! i 've been manipulative and dishonest and really , really horrible , okay ? and if you want to tear into me , that 's fine . can we just do it later , though ? 'cause right now , i am focused on my little girl , and i need to do what 's best for her . [ scene_break ] gary : do n't lie to me , claudette ! maxie : stop calling me claudette . i am not her . how could anyone mistake me for that bitch ? gary : you are just trying way too hard here , honey . maxie : okay . look into my eyes . i ... am ... not ... her . or you can check my id . it 's in my purse . look at my name . gary : [ sighs ] whoa . this is actually impressive . this is rather good . all the way up to the name part . mariah maxi -- maximiliana ? maxie : take that up with my parents . gary : or this could be just an exquisitely good - looking fake id , claudette . maxie : i am not claudette ! how would you feel if someone just kept referring to you as a person that you hated more than anything else in the world ? besides , i do n't look anything like her . oh , did your person not give you a photo ? gary : so , if you 're not claudette -- maxie : i 'm not her . gary : [ laughs ] i believe you . i actually do . i just kind of like getting a little rise out of you . maxie : oh ! hmm . gary : so , why did you break in to her room , then ? maxie : i told you . i hate her . i mean , i was gon na replace all her shampoo and conditioner with hair remover . i 'm petty , and i 'm not ashamed of it . gary : well , i 'm guessing if you knew where to find claudette , then you also know where to find the little girl , too . so , maxie ... tell me where they are . [ scene_break ] claudette : come on , baby girl . let 's get going . i 'll talk to you tomorrow , okay ? griffin : hey , before you go ... i - i know you do n't know me , charlotte . but we 're gon na get to know each other real well , okay ? i 'm so glad you 're here . [ sighs ] claudette : okay . see you tomorrow . [ breathes deeply ] i know that i 'm -- there 's nothing i can say to convince you , but , um ... i only did what i thought was best . [ voice breaking ] and i 'm sorry . bye . griffin : maybe i should -- maybe i should go with them . charlotte could be in danger . nathan : no , claudette never would 've walked out that door if she thought that there was any danger to charlotte , again , presuming that there even is any danger . clearly , everything that comes out of that woman 's mouth is subject to verification . griffin : yeah . uh , hey , i , uh -- there 's something else i want to say . nathan : about what ? about claudette ? griffin : no , about you . [ scene_break ] carly : so you 're saying that no one could have predicted this ? that no one could have known that morgan would decline so quickly ? andré : i was monitoring him closely , and so were you . none of us could see how bad it was getting before it was too late to correct course . carly : i did . i saw it . a little more each day . something morgan would say that did n't make sense , his mood would shift , he 'd sleep late in the afternoon , and all the alarms in my head and in my heart were going off , because i knew something was wrong . but i was n't supposed to hover . i was n't supposed to police him . i was supposed to trust the process , to let morgan manage himself . i was supposed to get out of the way and let you treat him ! so that 's what i did ! i followed the rules , instead of following my instinct , and i 'm his mother . i 'm his mother , and if i would 've followed my instinct , my kid would still be alive ! andré : i know it feels that way , but there 's no way to know -- carly : oh , my god ! stop ! do n't ! do n't stand there and patronize me . please ? do n't do that , because my son is dead . my beautiful , perfect little boy is dead . so do n't stand there and tell me that there is nothing that anyone could have done . michael : mom -- mom , dr. maddox did his best to answer your questions . carly : i want dr. maddox to get the hell out of my house ! andré : mrs. corinthos , i am not making excuses for anyone , especially not myself . i will carry what happened with morgan for -- it does n't matter . again ... i am terribly sorry . carly : i do n't care what he says . i do n't care . you know , he can say that there 's nothing that i could 've done , there 's nothing anyone else could 've done , but i knew something was wrong . i knew something was wrong with morgan , and i did n't do anything to help him . [ sobbing ] i did n't do anything to help him . [ scene_break ] nelle : excuse me . ava : well ... good night , then . hey . i know you think i was bad for morgan . m - maybe in some ways , i was . sonny : maybe ? ava : i cared about him . i loved him in my own way . you know , no , not -- not in my own way . i loved him . i loved him ! period ! sonny : you never loved anyone or anything except yourself . you used morgan , just like you used kiki , like you 're using avery . you have no soul ! and the way you proved that is how you treated my son ! ava : i know you blame yourself for his death . sonny : are you offering me sympathy now ? you want to have a pity party ? i absolve you , you absolve me ? there 's no absolution ! we did what we did . we got to carry that for the rest of our lives . now get out of here ... and never presume you know how i feel ! [ door closes ] ava : [ exhales sharply ] but i do know , sonny . [ scene_break ] griffin : look , i just want to say that it 's not lost on me that claudette put you through the same thing . nathan : yeah . [ chuckles ] i wanted charlotte to be mine . but she 's not , and that 's that . griffin : and , once again , with claudette 's help , i 've caused you pain . i - i truly need to make amends . nathan : you do n't . you really do n't . all right ? we have been brought together by some crazy coincidences . griffin : no . no , no , no . i - i do n't believe in coincidence . i was taught that everything in life happens for a reason , and i think you were put back in my path , so i could own up to what claudette and i have done to you , face the consequences . nathan : griffin , i - i shot you . i could 've killed you . karmically , i think we 're square . griffin : w - what i did was worse than shooting you . i interfered with your marriage to the point that i created a child . nathan : yeah . yeah . and now you have a child with a woman who lies like she breathes . and she 's gon na use that child to manipulate you to get what she wants . yeah , i think you have -- you have more than made up for what you did to me . look , i know you 're gon na feel obligated , driven , to protect charlotte , and i - i would do the same if i was in your position , but -- griffin : but what ? nathan : you 're not really thinking of staying with claudette , are you ? i mean , you have to know that one way or another , that woman will destroy you . [ scene_break ] claudette : do n't worry about a thing . somehow , some way , i 'm gon na figure everything out , and before you know it , everything is gon na be fine . [ beep ] claudette : [ gasps ] [ scene_break ] maxie : you want to know where claudette is ? okay . i can tell you that . gary : great . start talking . maxie : um , first , let 's get out of here . i mean , i 'm gon na need some sort of guarantee that you 're not gon na kill me ... gary : [ chuckles ] maxie : ... after i tell you this . gary : unfortunately , sweetheart , there are no guarantees in this world . maxie : look , i do n't care what you do to claudette . i hate her that much . but i like breathing more . so take me to a public place , and i will tell you what i know . gary : [ laughs ] i like your spirit , maxie . i really do . but that 's not how this works . maxie : actually , it is . see , i 'm connected to people on both sides of the law . i 'm really tight with the people in the corinthos organization , and i work for julian jerome . my boyfriend is a police detective , stepfather , former commissioner . oh , my dad -- he 's the head of the wsb . so this is gon na be better for the both of us if we do this my way . gary : wow . you make a - a really compelling argument . there 's just -- there 's just one problem . i do n't give a damn . now let 's try this again . [ scene_break ] ava : kiki , would you call me ? or text me or -- or something ? what happened with morgan is -- is just terrible , and i want you to know that your mother is here for you . you know , i know that you 're blaming yourself for what happened to him . and it is not your fault . there is no way you could 've known how this would play out . no one could . [ scene_break ] michael : look , mom , i know -- i know -- i know -- i know you want answers , okay ? and w - we 're gon na get them . but putting all this blame on yourself , it 's not -- it 's not right . carly : it feels right . michael : mom , look , morgan was bipolar , and his -- his illness definitely contributed to t - the behavior he had the night that he died , but it did n't kill him . m - maybe his meds were n't working as well as they could 've . carly : as well as they could 've ? michael : but -- but you remember what jason said ? he was able to get through to morgan . he -- morgan listened , and he stopped . he was getting out of the car when it exploded . s - so morgan -- morgan did n't die , because we did n't realize how sick he was . he died because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time . carly : he died because he stole a car that was wired to explode ... by your father . [ scene_break ] carly : well , make sure you do n't forget the teddy bear . ava : oh , no , i wo n't . can you imagine ? she 'd never let me hear the end of it . sonny : what the hell 's going on ? carly : i 'm helping ava pack up avery 's things . ava : i 'm finally taking my daughter home . sonny : that 's not gon na happen . carly : oh , come on , sonny . you know avery 's way better off with ava than she ever could be with you . sonny : what ? carly : yeah , i know ava 's a killer . ava : but i 'm not the only one . carly : at least she did n't kill our son . now , where 's that thing -- ava : ah , i 'll bet you 're looking for this . sonny : okay , sto -- stop it ! stop it . stop . carly : you 're a great mother . ava : no , you are . sonny : stop it ! ! ! nelle : mr. corinthos ? are you all right ?

sonny and carly are both alone in their respective homes , both in crisis over the loss of morgan . michael is with his mom while she gets settled into her old house . she declares she needs some answers as to how , when and why her son went downhill , got expelled from school , started drinking , and the unsolved mystery of when , how , why or if he stopped taking his meds , which everyone believed were proven to help him stay on track . she calls andré over and demands to know what he has to say about his assessment of her son 's illness throughout the time he was hospitalized and then released . andre informs carly that morgan did n't go for the blood test he 'd ordered and admits he has no answers . meanwhile , ava knows she has to eliminate any and all evidence that could tie her to what happened to morgan . she goes into his bedroom to take and replace the meds she tampered with when nelle finds her . she can clearly see there is something very suspicious about ava and sonny 's connection to his infant daughter 's mom . he confides in her how ava poses a threat to everyone he loves including morgan . nelle is worried when she hears that and calls carly expressing her concerns about sonny . carly refuses to listen and hangs up . sonny first has a dream that carly has come back to him and declares her love and permanent commitment to him , in spite of what happened to morgan . he later dreams that she and ava arrange to take avery from him and carly declares she trusts ava with the baby and not him because ava , at least , did not get morgan killed . ava leaves the house and puts the meds she wants to hide in the trash . yet shortly thereafter , we see someone reach in and take them out of the trash .

reese : you 're a sight for sore eyes . sonny : looks like you 're opening up a flower shop here . reese : yeah , well , whose fault is that , huh ? get over here , i missed you . sonny : ah , back at you . wow . reese : what ? sonny : well , no , it 's just , like , you 're recovering from a gunshot wound , you had major surgery , and i got to tell you , you -- you still look amazing . reese : oh . i 'm just happy . we did it , sonny . we 're still here . we survived . [ scene_break ] robin : sorry . i know i just dropped a bombshell , but i 've learned that in the long run , it 's better to just get it out in the open right away . henri : if you do n't mind my asking , how ? robin : my first boyfriend had aids . we did n't know in the beginning and we just got swept away . i contracted h.i.v . , was diagnosed early . stone was n't so lucky . he died . henri : i 'm sorry . robin : it was devastating -- losing stone , having to start all over h.i.v.-positive . but , you know , just like with anything , you make the adjustment and you learn how to live your new life . i 'm on a drug regimen that works for me . my viral load is undetectable . i was one of the fortunate ones . i try not to lose sight of that . henri : hmm . that 's a remarkable attitude . robin : i do n't know about all that . i just think i 'm too stubborn to let this disease define me . henri : hmm . robin : but even so , h.i.v . complicates potential relationships , and right now i 'd just rather put that energy into my work .

[ scene_break ] jason : any sign of manny ? max : no , not so far . jason : check again . max : look , no offense , but maybe you should -- jason : `` no offense `` what ? `` maybe `` what ? max : look , maybe sam imagined the whole thing . you know , manny put her through hell in hawaii . maybe he 's been on your mind and you only thought you saw him here . sam : are you kidding me ? no , max , manny was here . jason : and there 's a chance he 's still in the building , so find him or come back and tell me you 're sure he 's gone . max : i 'm on it . jason : ok , just -- just tell me what happened . sam : all right , i was taking a shower , and i do n't know what happened , jason . i do n't know , i must have heard something , because i turned around and the glass -- it was sort of misted over , so i wiped it off and there he was . he was standing there . he was standing there with his eyes all over me and that psychotic grin on his face . jason : this is all a big game to manny . he broke in just to prove he could to send a message . ok , just -- what else ? sam : i screamed . i screamed , and then i grabbed on to the shower because i did n't want him to come in , but that 's the thing -- you 're right , he did n't want to get in . he just started to kind of back away and -- and laugh , so cocky . and -- and then he went , and then i got out of the shower and i went to the drawer where we keep the gun and i got the gun and i fired two shots -- jason : good . sam : and i think i hit him , but i do n't know . that could be wishful thinking . max : no , it is n't . we found drops of blood on the balcony outside of the guest room . now , that must have been how manny got out , but he could n't have gotten in that way . we had guards stationed at all access points . i mean , i do n't understand how he got in . jason : he did n't . manny was already here .

[ scene_break ] robin : when i first decided to study medicine , i considered becoming a surgeon . the risk of my infecting a patient with h.i.v . is almost nonexistent . but it would always be a consideration , and i thought it might undermine my patients ' faith , so i opted for pathology and clinical research instead . henri : so why are n't you specializing in h.i.v . and aids ? robin : i thought about it , but the fact that i have the virus might color my judgment and make me too eager to see results . henri : hmm . so you chose brain injuries and memory loss instead ? robin : mm - hmm . henri : any particular reason ? robin : someone i cared about suffered permanent brain damage in a car accident . and it made me curious to see how drug regimens can affect the brain ; how information and memories believed lost might be recovered . henri : maybe deep down you were hoping to find a cure for your friend . robin : trust me , this person has no interest in being cured . he likes his life just the way it is .

sam : these drugs were planted . you have to believe that . mac : forensics will take a look . the team is taking prints . sam : my prints are going to be all over everything . jerry would never overlook a detail like that . alexis : you know what ? you need to be quiet . sam : no , i want to explain myself . jerry jacks set me up and i 've been working undercover for months . mac : undercover for who , the fbi ? the atf ? sam : no , it was a private investigation . mac : who else was involved ? sam : no one . i was working for karpov . i know jerry is smuggling drugs . he figured out that i was on to him , so he framed me . [ scene_break ] jerry : you see , sam 's fingerprints will be all over the contraband that the police find in the apartment . karpov : i 'm impressed . jerry : no , no , no . it was simple , really . sam allowed herself to be so distracted by my affair with her mother . poor sam . she was practically begging to take the fall .

[ scene_break ] maxie : okay , are you guys ready ? lulu : you 're the one who 's holding us up . maxie : well , why am i even bothering to rescue you ? spinelli : peace , snarky blonde ones . though it warms the jackal 's heart to see you revert back to your tempestuous relationship of yore , now is not the time , nor the place . maxie : you are right , spinelli . i can point out all the ways lulu is being petty and ungrateful when we get out of here . scott : well , well , well . party in the patient 's room . maxie : how is that any of your business ? scott : what 's with the glasses ? maxie : they 're in style . not that i would expect you to understand that concept . scott : and the lab coat ? maxie : well , it was freezing , so i just grabbed one and put it on . can you believe they leave these things laying around ? i mean , the cut is so bad , i ca n't blame them . but , there . feel better ? now you can go . scott : someone is trying to break out . is n't that right , lulu ? spinelli : the jackal takes umbrage with your rush to judgment , not to mention the dreadful treatment of maximista during the zacchara trial and the grievous emotional harm you 've caused to the fair blonde one over the years . scott : fast forward through that gibberish . are you trying to break her out of here ? [ scene_break ] sam : i have been meeting with karpov for months . i 've been landing cargo for him . mac : what kind of cargo ? sam : i did n't ask any questions . mac : was it pharmaceutical drugs ? alexis : do n't answer that . sam : i have been spying on the two of them , and i saw with my own two eyes karpov give jerry a pda , like i keep telling you , and i am sure that there is evidence on it . alexis : there 's nothing on the pda except russian folk music and a nice recipe for -- sam : of course there is n't , because it 's encrypted like i keep telling you . it has to be . alexis : fine , then will you just check that out for me , please ? sam : you have to know that i invited him over here to get that pda . and when i got it , i was going to hand it straight to the police . alexis : you have to stop talking . you really have to stop talking because you are digging yourself into a hole that you 're not going to be able to get out of . i want you to let mac arrest you , and diane will meet you down at the p.c . sam : i just want to know that you believe me . i want you to know there is no way in the world that i would ever smuggle counterfeit drugs for a profit . alexis : you need to stop talking . you are just getting yourself in more trouble . sam : you do understand he is pitting us against each other , do n't you ? alexis : is that what you were doing in the hot tub ? sam : you 're kidding me . alexis : lucky -- mac : lucky , what are you doing here ? lucky : i picked up the call off dispatch . they said you were serving a warrant ? mac : this is n't your case . lucky : i know , i just -- i thought i need to be here because sam and i were once involved . [ scene_break ] robin : epiphany , do you have the tests back on mr. sherman yet ? epiphany : did i page you ? robin : if you did , i did n't hear you . epiphany : were n't the instructions on the chart to page you once the tests were back ? robin : yes . epiphany : well ? robin : is there a problem ? epiphany : you bet there 's a problem . what do you two think you 're doing ? robin and patrick : we 're getting married . [ scene_break ] anthony : ric makes an excellent point . never threaten an associate unless you 're ready to back it up . jason : i 'm not making any threats . i 'm just telling you how things will work . if you try to use sonny against me , i will tear your organization apart . i will shut you down . no shipments will land , no money will be collected . i can shut you down without leaving a scratch on sonny . anthony : you 're welcome to try . jason : you rebuilt your house . looks nice . [ anthony laughs ] anthony : that 's good . excellent . really , excellent . who knew ? [ anthony laughs ] ric : i 'll admit that your plan does sound good in theory -- if you were successful to be able to shut down the zacchara organization and leave sonny untouched , but it 's not going to happen . see , there 's a fatal flaw in your reasoning that 's pretty simple for most people to understand . see , you are assuming sonny is just going to step aside while you destroy the organization that he wants to run . sonny knows the only way he 's going to get at karpov is through the zaccharas . and if you get in the way of that , well , it 's going to force sonny into a confrontation . and then where are you gong to be , jason ? could you really pull a gun on sonny ? [ scene_break ] claudia : i need to hear some magic words here . words like , `` no , `` `` no , hell , no , `` `` unthinkable `` -- stuff like that . sonny : do you really believe i 'd marry you ? claudia : if the price was right and the deal was sweet enough , yeah . we would n't be having this conversation if it -- sonny : i 'm in love with kate . claudia : yeah , but kate got shot at your wedding , so it does n't bode real well for you and kate . sonny : i 'm not going to have a conversation with you about kate right now . claudia : you brought it up . sonny : yeah , i did , so i 'm going to tell you exactly what 's going on here . i ca n't go after karpov on my own , unfortunately , because he 's so deeply connected to the russian syndicate . claudia : daddy actually offered you the zacchara organization ? sonny : first thing i do is take out karpov . i 'd run the organization as i see fit . and then , as an act of good faith , i 'd marry you . claudia : makes sense from a business perspective . sonny : never going to happen . [ scene_break ] scott : you understand -- move -- lulu , that you ca n't just run off with pee wee . you need help . lulu : who would n't need help after the way that you harassed me ? spinelli : yeah , the jackal agrees most heartily . maxie : you made this whole experience as painful and as difficult for lulu as you possibly could . from the very beginning , you jumped to the conclusion that johnny was guilty before my dad could even begin the investigation . and then you chased lulu and johnny down like dogs when he was only trying to help her . you made sure she ended up in a straightjacket and padded cell . spinelli : a most unhappy place to be . lulu : you lied and said that logan was a cop so you could try and get johnny a lethal injection . spinelli : an act for which you should be disbarred . maxie : but the worst thing you did was dragging lulu to the witness stand when you knew she was in no place to testify . scott : oh , obviously , that was a big mistake . maxie : you do n't really care whether or not lulu gets well . you just want to punish her because she did n't love your pig of a son . spinelli : maximista 's analysis is quite astute . scott : i told you to be quiet . maxie : logan hayes was a mean , sadistic jerk . scott : so he deserved to die ? lulu : no . maxie : even if he did n't , you have no right coming in here and terrorizing a mental patient when she 's just trying to visit with her friends . scott : well , you 're right about that . she is a mental patient . she -- there is mental illness in her family . she simply made the mistake of running off with the wrong guy , kind of what her mother did and you saw that turned out . listen , i know that you think that i am a jerk . lulu : jerk does not quite cover it . scott : but what i am doing here by not letting these fools take you out of here , i am actually helping you , lulu . [ scene_break ] mac : we found a large quantity of pharmaceutical drugs in this apartment . do you know anything about that ? lucky : no . sam : good , then you have no reason to be here . alexis : she has a point . sam : i mean , really , does any cop who feels like it get to barge in my apartment when they want to ? mac : we have a warrant . stick around , lucky . sam : i mean , you bailed on me months ago . you 've been practically stalking me all over town and you show up here at my apartment when i 'm getting arrested . you 're not even on the case . do i have any rights at all ? alexis : the right to remain silent , okay ? sam : why ? i did n't do anything . i have nothing to hide . mac : alexis , why did you arrive before we arrived to serve a warrant ? alexis : because i wanted sam to explain these pictures . sam : what pictures ? mac : what was going on when you got here ? alexis : sam was making out with jerry in the hot tub . [ sam scoffs ] [ scene_break ] ric : i know you have trouble thinking long term , jason , so let me put it in perspective for you . well , sonny gave you the organization . now he wants it back and you do n't want to give it to him , so that makes you an enemy , even more than karpov . but not because -- not because it 's going to spoil his happily - every - after with kate . because it has to do with power , you know ? prestige , money , respect . see , sonny wants that all back . that 's the only reason he got involved with the zaccharas , because he wants to come after you . and i do n't know when it 's going to happen . it 's going to be maybe tomorrow , maybe 10 years from now . but at some point , sonny is going to have to make a decision and threaten your life to get back what is rightfully his . and you 're going to have to make a choice . jason : this is what you 've wanted all along . this whole time you wanted sonny so turned around that he ca n't tell the difference between friends and the enemy . ric : hmm , you know what 's really ironic , though ? see , i spent all those years trying to bring sonny down , and now the person who is going to do all the dirty work is you . just like always . [ scene_break ] claudia : it would n't be the first time daddy tried to get rid of me , but , you know , no offense , your wives do n't fare too well . sonny : zacchara family politics are n't my problem . claudia : it 's too late for that . you already let daddy know you wanted something . i do n't have to tell you , i mean , you 've been a boss for a long time -- you were . plus , you must be considering it , or we would not be having this conversation . sonny : there are major weaknesses in your father 's organization . he 's an old man . trevor does n't want to get his hands dirty . your brother is a loose cannon . you know , he needs someone to run things . claudia : you need something to run . you 're sick and tired of sitting out there on the sidelines , right ? i mean , obviously you are motivated to go after karpov , but what 's really driving you here is that you want back in . you want to be a gangster again . and if you want to do that , then you 're going to have to talk yourself into marrying me . sonny : so you would actually consider marrying me ? claudia : every marriage i 've ever seen up close and personal has ended badly or tragically . i just do n't really see the point of it . besides , you seem to hate me most of the time . but we still could have great sex . sonny : so you would marry me ? claudia : not a chance . you 're going to have to find another way to prove your loyalty to my father . and good luck with that , by the way . [ scene_break ] scott : lulu , i want you to get well , believe me . my son loved you until the day that he died . and for his sake , i want you to take your medication . maxie : do n't listen to him . he 's totally trying to psych you out . spinelli : the jackal agrees . maxie : logan was a creep . scott : look , these two claim to be your friends , but really they are doing you an injustice here , all right ? they cooked up some half - baked scheme to break you out of here , and it 's not going to work . spinelli : okay , if the loathsome lawyer does not stop badgering fair lulu , i will contact the shadybrook staff . scott : and they will come in here and throw a butterfly net over you . maxie : you know , is your name even on the visitor 's list ? scott : i 've got a badge . i can do what i want . spinelli : then i will contact fair lulu 's brothers who will no doubt insist that you keep your distance . scott : oh , how is lucky these days ? is he still scoring goofballs down at the docks ? spinelli : just back off , you loathsome worm , or the jackal will land on you like the goth god of zune . scott : or we can get nikolas over here . i 'm sure he 'd like to see his sister having a nervous breakdown . lulu : that would be good . i would like to watch my brothers kick your ass . [ scene_break ] patrick : hey , what 's up with epiphany ? robin : i do n't know . i thought she would have been happy to be invited to the wedding . patrick : yeah . robin : why do n't you go ask her why she 's mad ? patrick : are you -- you go -- i 'm not asking her . robin : i 'm not asking her , i 'm pregnant . patrick : you -- are you -- robin : yeah , i do n't -- epiphany : dr. drake ? patrick : yeah . epiphany : your ekg . dr , scorpio , your test results . patrick : wow . robin : thank you so much . patrick : yeah , this is great . robin : this is exactly -- epiphany : yep , i 'm doing my job . i suggest you do yours . robin : all right , epiphany , why are you so mad at us ? patrick : yeah , is there a problem with us getting married ? epiphany : you two have driven me and my staff to distraction the moment that you laid eyes on each other . one moment you 're screaming at each other , the next you 're getting way too personal in the supply room . then you commandeer the p.a . system . you to ask her to marry you . you to tell him the reasons why you ca n't . but i can handle all that . patrick : and we do , we really appreciate your patience . epiphany : but , however , now that you two have decided to make up your minds and get married , what do you go and do ? robin : uh , have a wedding ? epiphany : which you 're going to try to pull off in less than two weeks with a baby that 's almost here . which is going to give you both all kinds of reasons to argue and micro - manage . and i 'm telling you right now that i 'm not having it . patrick : but we have n't argued about the wedding at all . robin : no . epiphany : it 's only a matter of time . robin : really , we agree on almost everything . epiphany : now i know you 're lying . robin : it 's true , because maxie is the one that 's making all the arrangements . see , all patrick and i have to do is show up , get married , and have a good time . patrick : yeah . epiphany : mm - hmm . robin : epiphany , look on the bright side . patrick and i may always fight about stupid , petty things , but we do n't fight over the big stuff . epiphany : we 'll see . robin : well , uh , have fun with epiphany tonight . patrick : no , no , no , you 're not leaving . robin : i suddenly got very , very sleepy . patrick : you traitor . robin : bye .

[ mike scoffs ] [ scene_break ] johnny : sonny treats you like garbage . besides , look what happened to his last bride . i 'm not going to let you marry him . claudia : daddy only has one daughter to marry off to seal this deal . that gives me a lot of options . i could marry sonny and make daddy happy . or i could not marry sonny and leave them both stranded . or i could marry somebody else . johnny : and what would that accomplish ? claudia : it depends on who i marry . johnny : you are not going to marry anybody . claudia : you 're missing the point , little brother . for the first time in a long time , i have real power in this family , right ? i am in a position to make or break a major deal . and i do n't mind telling you , i 'm -- i 'm okay with that .

jax : a nice little foot rub . that relaxes you , right ? carly : i like it when you give me the foot rub . way more fun . jax : can you just pretend that it was me ? i mean , you probably would n't be able to tell , anyway , because your belly 's so big -- carly : that 's really weird . jax : you just kind of -- not going to happen ? no ? carly : mm - mm . i 'll pass . jax : okay . carly : since when did you and kelly get together and discuss how to keep me immobilized and relaxed ? jax : dr. lee and i are on the same page when it comes to keeping this baby girl inside you for another few weeks . okay ? carly : i wo n't argue . i wo n't argue . and lounging around the house sounds nice . but i did promise morgan i would take him over to sonny 's . jax : sonny 's out of town . carly : really ? jax : yep . carly : how do you know that ? [ scene_break ] ronnie : is this place cool for us to talk ? dominic : yeah , yeah , yeah . we 're fine . what the hell happened to your hand ? ronnie : i broke a couple of fingers pulling a gorgeous and grateful woman from a burning car . dominic : you got carpal tunnel playing video games with ron jr . ronnie : look , it 's a serious injury , and left untreated , i could have lasting damage . so stop riding me . tell me you got something new . dominic : i do . straight from the boss ' desk . it 's a list of all sonny 's south american partners . ronnie : this is good . dominic : yeah . i also got word that sonny and claudia are attending some big meeting down in san juan . ronnie : yeah ? dominic : yeah . it must be huge . i mean , sonny 's taking a huge risk by going there in person . he is an easy target that far from his power base .

[ speaking in spanish ] claudia : is everything okay ? sonny : yeah . yeah . it 's all set up for tonight , right ? all the players are going to be there . claudia : why did you pick puerto rico as the meeting place ? sonny : halfway point . partners fly up , i fly down . i got influence here , and we 're going to need every possible advantage if we 're going to pull this off . [ scene_break ] jax : i went over to sonny 's last night to try to talk to him about keeping your stress levels down , at least for the last few weeks of the pregnancy . carly : well , you must have been pretty persuasive . not many people can talk sonny into leaving town . jax : no . you ca n't give me that much credit , because he was already gone . carly : he left town ? jax : mm - hmm . carly : he usually tells me when he 's leaving town . in fact , him not telling me means he does n't want me to worry , which makes me worry even more . jax : okay . okay . carly : what 's going on ? jax : would you please -- people go on vacations , okay ? claudia and sonny probably went off on a little romantic getaway . just -- carly : oh , come on . jax : no , ser -- if you get upset again , you 're going to go into preterm labor , and do you really want that ? do you want to upset your husband , hmm ? carly : first , you had a secret meeting behind my back , and now , you 're using blackmail ? jax : well , whatever works . carly : i like it . jax : really ? carly : yeah . i like it when you get ruthless . it 's extremely sexy . jax : ahh . mmm . [ scene_break ] spinelli : you must tell the jackal all the details of your night of intensity . was there a high - speed chase , a shootout , or old school fisticuffs ? what ? jason : no , no . it was nothing like that . sam : but we did break into a house . spinelli : aha ! sam : yes , we did . we were looking for records that devlin could have stored somewhere , but it was a dead end . well -- i mean , not really , because we did find that big bag of money we gave to that lady . spinelli : oh , what lady ? jason : the lady whose house we broke into . we were in the basement , and she came in . she passed out . she was pregnant . we had to rush her to the er . sam : and we got her there just in time , 'cause the baby lived . spinelli : it sounds like a most impressive rescue . i applaud your heroism . sam : yeah . well , it was a joint effort , right ? spinelli : perhaps in light of your good samaritan efforts , she wo n't press charges for breaking and entering ? sam : perhaps . we can only hope , i suppose . jason : the point is , the house was a dead end . i might have a new lead , and last night , i was talking to patrick at the hospital about devlin , and he said something that made me realize that devlin could have hidden something at general hospital . [ scene_break ] patrick : hi . robin : hi , sleepy . patrick : good morning . robin : i heard you come in last night , but you stayed downstairs , and you never came to bed . why ? patrick : yeah . my brain just would n't shut off . robin : oh . you were in the er late last night ? patrick : it was late last night . jason and sam brought in a pregnant woman who needed an emergency c - section . [ robin chuckles ] patrick : thank you . and she pulled through . the baby 's fine , too . but it just got me thinking how many things can go wrong with a pregnancy , and how lucky we were that emma was born -- robin : we are . patrick : safe and healthy . robin : yes . we 're very blessed . not everyone is as lucky as we are . patrick : there was something else , too . in talking to jason , he mentioned that they found the woman in a house east of town . they were there looking for evidence on ian devlin . supposedly , he was using the house as a storage facility . robin : really ? patrick : yeah . did n't find much , except for a bag of cash . robin : well , i know that jason did have questions about michael 's shooting . patrick : yeah . you know , ian was a friend of mine , but i obviously accepted too much of what he said at face value . i did n't ask the question that i should have asked . robin : there was no way for you to know what he was up to . he was a very good liar . patrick : yeah , well , i wish i would have figured that out earlier . my blindness is partially to blame for michael 's shooting . [ scene_break ] dominic : look , joey limbo could easily call in a favor or offer somebody a deal and have sonny taken out when he gets to that meeting . ronnie : well , sounds like a win in my book . i mean , if sonny is stupid enough to walk into an ambush , i say we let him do it . dominic : i thought the whole point was to build a case against sonny , take him down the right way . get him tried and convicted . you know , our job is to uphold the law , not to condone sonny 's murder . ronnie : our job is to take sonny out , period , any way we can . look . if joey limbo or one of those bosses from south america decide to take sonny out , well , that 's good news for us . tell me that you get that , dominic . [ scene_break ] sonny : i got a very lucrative business moving product for these south american suppliers . i do n't intend to lose that . so , it 's time to take control of the situation . claudia : these are the guys that lost property in the zacchara raid , right ? sonny : well , you know , they 're under the impression that i ca n't control my territory and the shipment 's not safe . claudia : so you 're here to reassure them ? sonny : no . i 'm here to , uh , show them the error of their ways and , you know , give them an opportunity to apologize . look at this- [ scene_break ] jax : carly , you 're getting sick of me hovering , are n't you ? carly : no . i know your heart 's in the right place . you 're just being a loving father , not to mention a wonderful , supportive husband . and besides , someone needs to protect our little girl from my occasionally unreliable impulses . jax : you ? mmm . carly : i know i can be , let 's say , impulsive at times . and i do n't always make the best decisions . and if i do n't , you know , take your advice , it 's not because i love you less . it 's because i love you more . jax : of course . carly : i mean not many people would put up with my idiosyncrasies . jax : you 're not that bad . carly : come on . you know there are times when you 're ready to jump on your jet and fly off to monte carlo and leave all this behind . jax : you make my life sound very glamorous . carly : you are glamorous . jax : really ? carly : you 're damn sexy . and do n't you think for one minute that i do n't appreciate you giving up all your corporate raiding and your international adventures just to stay home with me and monitor my green vegetable intake . jax : i have absolutely no problem with the fact that my priorities have shifted . in fact , dr. drake and i were talking about this very thing last night at the hospital . carly : oh , really ? wow . jax : yes , we were . carly : you guys must have a lot in common . the reformed playboys ? himm . look , you traded it all in for commitment , baby formula , and diaper duty ? jax : yep . carly : you got the better wife , though . jax : absolutely . no argument there . my decision to be with you and have a family has made me happier than i 've ever been in my life . i love you . carly : i love you . [ scene_break ] diane : no . i 'm back on a plane at 5 : 00 . what do you mean , unnecessary delay ? i have a thriving practice in port charles , and that needs a -- that needs attention . look , i 'm about to be called into chambers . do n't call me back . max . well , this is a surprise . i certainly hope you 're not at the hospital for health reasons . max : diane . uh , i 'm fine . no health problems at all . i 'm , uh -- i ca n't talk . i 'm actually meeting a friend . diane : oh . max : ahem . just play along . woman : are you crazy ? max : please , lady . my ex - girlfriend 's watching . woman : so what ? max : okay . diane : you were saying ? max : that i was meeting a friend of a friend , and i thought that was her . diane : oh . well , since it obviously is n't , maybe you have a few moments . we could catch up . max : uh , you know -- sorry . lots to do . you know how it is . boss has gotten me -- important assignments and -- you know , of dangerous and criminal nature . i ca n't really talk about it -- diane : sonny 's in puerto rico . max : i do n't -- how did you know ? diane : because i 'm his attorney , max . whenever sonny has a delicate negotiation in another city , he usually advises me so that if there are complications , i know how to handle them . max : oh . i thought you were , you know , too busy for the boss and -- well , you know , these days with your case in philadelphia and all . diane : well , yes . my case in philadelphia is going very well , and i expect a lucrative settlement at the end of it . but my heart , my practice , is here in port charles , and that deserves due diligence . max : oh . well -- it was good to see you . diane : max . i do n't think of you as a love puppet . [ scene_break ] jason : need you to hack into the gh mainframe . pull up devlin 's files , his patients ' files , any research he was doing , anything he might have left behind . sam : okay . wait a minute . hold on . so you 're thinking that ian could have left recordings of his illegal activities embedded in patient files ? jason : well , what i 'm saying is , the hospital files are totally secure . so maybe he did transfer the recordings to a disc , put it in a patient 's files . the cases that are closed , no one 's ever going to know . sam : hmm . spinelli : i secured a complete list of patients treated by dr. devlin , and stone cold is right . several of the files indicate records , data , and scan that may be backed up to dvd . jason : okay . we need to get to those dvds . [ scene_break ] dominic : you know , maybe i 'm being old fashioned here , but i think maybe we should bring charges against sonny , make a case . you know , follow the law . that 's why i became a cop in the first place . ronnie : you know , that 's really all stand - up of you , dom , but if i 'm being honest , i do n't buy it this time . dominic : do n't buy what ? ronnie : look . you know if it was up to me , you 'd already be off this case . i think i 've made that pretty clear . dominic : oh , yeah . ronnie : you 're way too involved in sonny 's life . and i 'm not just talking about his business -- his family . you 're friends with his kids . hell , last week , his wife tried to bang you . i mean , to say that the lines are n't blurring for you would be a massive understatement . dominic : well , you know what ? it 's a good thing i know what i 'm doing , then . ronnie : oh , do you ? dominic : yeah . ronnie : because it seems to me that you 're treating sonny more and more like a boss , you know ? someone to be loyal to . dominic : come on . that is crap . we both know where my loyalties lie . i 'm a cop , ronnie . ronnie : yeah . dominic : i 'm loyal to my badge . look , if and when sonny comes back , i 'll continue this assignment . i 'll compile evidence . i 'll make a case . i 'll do my job . once we find out how sonny moves his money out of the country , we have all we need to take him down the legal way . ronnie : yeah . but that just seems a little overly optimistic . you are trying to find a non - violent way to bust sonny , and the truth is , that just may not be possible . you need to accept that . look . i got to go . i 'll check you later . dominic : look . wait . hold on one sec . look at this tag here . have you ever seen that before , man ? something looks familiar about that . ronnie : no . i ca n't say i have . sorry . i 'll call you later . dominic : yeah . [ scene_break ] claudia : you know what my crazy old bastard of a father used to always say ? the best defense is a good offense . sonny : he 's right about that . but tonight is all about you . want to make a show of strength . we 're going to have to move into the room , anticipate any opposition , and then intimidate the hell out of whoever it is . claudia : sounds like fun to me . sonny : we are going to run the show . no , you know , explanations . we 're going to make sure everybody knows that it was their screw - up , and i 'm just there to bail them out . claudia : oh . i honestly ca n't wait to walk in there as your wife . and you can count on me . you know that , right ? sonny : i appreciate that . claudia : yeah . sonny : but you know , they 're going to have to clean up their own mess , 'cause it was their own weakness that allowed anthony to jump on them in the first place . and that 's where you walk in . as anthony 's daughter , as my wife , you need to let them know that i am in complete control of the situation . claudia : done . sonny : if anybody comes up and says , `` anthony this , anthony that , `` all you got to do is say he 's old , he 's crazy , and his double cross failed . and we have handled the last of the renegade zaccharas . claudia : yeah . yeah . okay . the one concern that i have , though , is , is n't seeing you down here in person going to make some of these guys kind of nervous ? sonny : well , nervous people make stupid mistakes , and the thing is , that 's usually good . unless their stupid mistake is trying to take us out . [ scene_break ] [ jax sighs ] [ knock on door ] alexis : hi . jax : hey . alexis : you have a minute ? jax : yeah , absolutely . for you , anytime . come on in . what 's going on ? alexis : i wanted to talk to you some more about michael . jax : what 's going on with michael ? [ alexis sighs ] alexis : i want to just explain more about why i made the decision that i made , and how guilty and awful i feel about it , and how sorry i am that i upset carly and , worse , michael , because he does n't deserve it . it 's not his fault , none of it . and then , you 're in the middle . jax : yeah , in more ways than one . alexis : jerry . [ sighs ] jax : i 've decided to tell carly the truth once the baby 's born . i know that the whole situation is going to blow up in everyone 's face , especially mine . alexis : but you did n't do anything wrong . jax : i do n't think carly will see it that way . i can hope , but i kept my brother 's secret . i allowed him to continue after the metro court incident , and that led to michael being shot . alexis : jax , you were trying to protect carly , who is having a high - risk pregnancy . you do n't think that 's going to carry any weight ? jax : michael almost died because of my brother 's actions , so -- i do n't know how carly 's going to react , but i 'm prepared for the worst . [ scene_break ] carly : yeah . they 're for the lobby . well , just call kako over at the florist and make sure they 're be delivered by tomorrow . thanks , olivia . oh , do me a favor -- do n't tell jax that i called . okay . bye . hey . uh , wait . did your dad mention to you that he was going out of town ? [ scene_break ] michael : no . why ? carly : no reason . i guess it was last minute . no big deal . michael : maybe he took off 'cause he 's trying to give me some space . carly : why would you say that ? michael : 'cause i freaked out on him again , for no reason . you know , he was trying to help me figure out . i was being totally cool . and then , i just got all pissed off again and lost it . i do n't understand why my brain just goes there , you know ? i hate it . carly : it 's okay . it 's going to take time . and your dad knows that , michael . michael : i just wish the whole memory thing would just stop , you know , and go away . i ca n't stand not being able to control it or control how angry i 'm going to get when it happens , you know ? i -- like some freak , you know ? i 'm just afraid that something bad 's going to happen . carly : do n't say that . you 're fine . and besides , what bad thing is going to happen from your memories ? ramona , voiceover : some villains are vague . some are clear . some are standing by the bed . some are in the mirror . [ scene_break ] spinelli : unfortunately , it appears dr. devlin 's files are restricted . i 'm afraid a break - in could cause some heinous difficulties . jason : keep at it . there 's got to be a way . sam : wait a minute . wait a minute . maybe we do n't have to break in . is there any way you can have the files transferred to somewhere else in the hospital , somewhere jason and i would have access to , somewhere -- anywhere -- in the building ? as long as it stayed in the building , it should be okay , right ? jason : yeah . you 're right . why do n't you have them transferred to one of those conference rooms ? spinelli : okay . we may be being a bit overly optimistic . jason : is n't it worth a try ? i mean , if devlin left something behind to prove claudia 's guilty , do n't we need to find it ? [ scene_break ] robin : you ca n't blame yourself for what ian did . it was n't your fault . patrick : i 'm not blaming myself , but i still feel like i should try and help figure out what happened , or figure out if there was an accomplice or not . it just pisses me off that ian was lying to me the whole time , face to face . robin : you were just trusting your friend . patrick : yeah . well , that friend certainly had a lot of cash stashed away . figure it 's for a getaway if he had to leave town or something . you know what ? i 'm going to look at all the files that ian and i worked on . maybe there 's something i missed in one . robin : that 's weird . patrick : why are all ian 's files being moved to the conference room ? [ scene_break ] sonny : so here 's the deal . it 's a dangerous situation . if you do n't want to take the risk , i would n't hold it against you . claudia : you 're going , are n't you ? sonny : well , i did n't get where i am being cautious . tonight , i have to take care of the situation . claudia : well , i 'm going with you . and i got your back . you know how i see it ? you got to risk big to win big , and you always seem to come out on top . sonny : i appreciate your faith . claudia : okay . sonny : all right . claudia : listen , i 'm excited to show you just exactly what kind of asset i can be to you . sonny : really ? claudia : yes , i am . sonny : all right . claudia : mm - hmm . [ sonny sighs ] sonny : you look amazing . red 's my favorite color . claudia : likewise . [ sonny laughs ] claudia : and you look great , too . sonny : you know what ? this might not be that hard , 'cause guys are going to be looking at you , and i 'll be able to do what i need to do , you know what i mean ? claudia : it 's too bad i ca n't incorporate a bullet - proof vest . sonny : if you do n't want to do this , just let me know . claudia : no , i want to do it . you know what ? they 're disrespecting you , so they 're disrespecting me . and i ca n't wait to help you put them in their place . sonny : you and me together ? they 're not going to know what hit them . claudia : you know i love the whole power couple thing , anyway . sonny : all right . let 's do it . claudia : all right . let 's do it ! i 'm so proud to be your wife . [ scene_break ] [ sam sighs ] robin : oh . i had a feeling we might be seeing you guys here . jason : yeah . what 's going on ? patrick : all of ian devlin 's files were brought to the conference room . i 'm thinking spinelli 's handiwork ? [ chuckles ] that kid is good . so i 'm guessing you 're looking for ian 's accomplice in michael 's shooting . sam : i 'm a little confused . why are you guys interested in ian 's files ? robin : this is patrick 's project . i 'm just here for backup . patrick : ian was a friend of mine . we went to med school together . i was thrilled when he came to work here at general hospital . then i found out he was a drug dealer , among other things . robin : he was a very good liar . he had the entire staff fooled . patrick : i was stunned when i found out he was responsible for michael 's shooting . and now , i guess i 'm figuring out that i 'm not over it . so i want the truth out there . all of it . and i want whoever 's involved brought to justice . robin : i guess what he 's saying is that we 're all looking for the same thing here , and ian , he could have written notes about what he was doing inside the patient files , right ? sam : yeah , but is n't it a little risky for the two of you to be digging through sealed medical files without patient or family consent ? it 's sort of a breach of medical ethics -- patrick : as doctors in this hospital , we 're allowed to look through files . it 's only illegal if you guys do it . robin : also , we know what should and should n't be in the files , so it could save you a lot of time . patrick : if anyone else is involved in michael 's shooting , i want it known . i want it out in the open . all of it . [ scene_break ] carly : michael . michael ? michael : uhh -- carly : did i just lose you for a second ? michael : i 'm sorry . i was just being stupid . carly : no . do n't do that . it 's not stupid for you to want to tell me what 's going on . and i just want to help you so i can help you figure this out . and if all you 're remembering is people visiting you in the hospital while you were in the coma , i do n't understand how that translates into something bad . [ michael sighs ] carly : and now , you 're just trying to keep something from me . michael : no , mom , i just -- carly : it 's okay . stop for a second . it 's okay . i 'm not going to push you . [ michael scoffs ] carly : i want you to know , there 's nothing that i would n't do for you , and you can tell me anything . michael : okay . there is something else . i know that ian devlin was the guy who shot me , but i think there were other people involved . [ scene_break ] diane : so , how are you feeling ? max : fine . good . diane : yeah ? no lasting damage from what happened at the carnival ? max : oh , that . it was nothing . diane : you got hit by a car , max .

[ sighs ] come here . [ clears throat ] we had a really long talk before -- before you got here , and i told her about the phone call , and it turns out that she had a similar situation happen to her after her son jake died . jake was gone . that was undeniable , but she kept thinking that she was seeing him . she said that she wanted to believe that he was still alive , and i realized that that 's exactly what i was doing . and elizabeth helped me see that . sabrina : good . good . i 'm glad that elizabeth was able to help you . patrick : and you did , too . and you 're right . look , i 'm -- [ sighs ] i did n't imagine that phone call , but there could be any number of explanations for it , okay ? it could have been a wrong number , or maybe it was a woman saying that her name was robin . i do n't know . or maybe you 're right -- maybe it was a prank . and as hard as that was for me to realize , i know that i ca n't look at it any other way . whatever that phone call was , i know that it was n't robin . sabrina : i have a confession . when i took off to meet felix , i was n't -- i was n't meeting felix . it was just an excuse . patrick : for what ? sabrina : i was so convinced that the phone call was a prank that i - i accused carlos of staging it . patrick : you really think your ex would do something like that ? sabrina : i do n't know . i mean , considering everything he 's done to make trouble for us , i - i thought that it could be possible . patrick : yeah , i guess i could have -- i could have thought about that if i was thinking a little bit more clearly , but instead i insisted that it was robin . [ sighs ] what did he say ? sabrina : oh , well , he denied it , of course . i mean , what else could he do ? patrick : do you believe him ? sabrina : i do n't know . i do n't know . he 's just been working so hard to make me doubt you and trying to rekindle our relationship . wait . that 's not why you proposed to me -- not because of carlos , right ? patrick : no . me proposing to you had -- had -- had nothing to do with him . it had to do with robin . robin : wait . i do n't understand . why did n't patrick come himself ? nikolas : patrick did n't send me . robin : so , wait -- he did n't tell you that i called ? nikolas : no . i do n't -- i do n't know anything about a call . and , robin , i - i had no idea that you were even alive . robin : then if you do n't know that i 'm alive , why are you even here ? nikolas : i 'm -- i 'm trying to help my friend britt find her -- her little boy . robin : oh , no . nikolas : her mother ... robin : [ sighs ] nikolas : ... kidnapped him and brought -- what ? what do you know ? robin : obrecht -- um , she brought him here -- the baby -- and -- and i took care of him . nikolas : what ? are you ser -- is he okay ? robin : i took care of him . i - i took care of him for patrick . nikolas : for -- what do you mean ? robin : well , the baby -- i mean , he 's -- [ scoffs ] he 's patrick 's son . nikolas : [ sighing ] oh , god . patrick is not the father of britt 's baby . britt : that 's right , father . not one drop of your blood is in my son . faison : of course it is . he 's my grandson . britt : not the way you want him to be . faison : did your mother lie to me about you ? are you some other man 's bastard ? britt : no . she did n't lie to you about that ... unfortunately . i have your dna , but ben does n't . lulu : they ca n't take her . she 's ours . she 's our baby . we have to do something . alexis : [ sighs ] well , lulu , you could sue maxie . lulu : sue her ? for what ? alexis : punitive damages . you put a dollar amount on the emotional suffering that maxie caused you and the money that you spent for her medical care after she miscarried . you demand repayment with a lawsuit . lulu : there 's no amount of money that 's gon na change what 's happened , no amount of money that 's gon na lessen the pain that we 're feeling . dante and i -- we just want our daughter . we want connie . we ca n't lose her . please , alexis , help us . maxie : it 's pretty clear that dante and lulu are not gon na give up this baby without a fight . spinelli : and it 's not as though we can just barge in and take her . maxie : no , we ca n't . can we ? diane : i would n't advise it . spinelli : so , what would you advise ? diane : you know , it 's not normally my practice to be judgmental about my clients , but i consider you a friend , mr. jackal . spinelli : likewise . diane : i know you to be caring , considerate , sensitive , loyal to a fault , and i think that you are in for a world of hurt . spinelli : could -- could you be more specific ? what form will that hurt take ? diane : well , this is technically a legal matter , but there has never been a law written or a court convened that can adequately describe what it means to love a child . i have seen people wreck themselves over parental rights . i 've seen scorched earth between formerly rational individuals . case in point -- carly and jax nearly dismantled each other over josslyn . and this from two people who said they wanted an amicable divorce . maxie : no , that -- that was a totally different situation . spinelli and i are the parents , but we 're on the same side . we 're not fighting . diane : yes . about that . it is my understanding that you never told spinelli that he was the father of your child . maxie : that 's right . i did n't . diane : in point of fact , you would have let him go the rest of his life without acknowledging that he had a daughter . maxie : yes , i thought i could do that , but ... [ sighs ] diane : all right , well , this is me taking off my lawyer hat in order to be able to say to you that i find your actions appallingly selfish . you have used and abused this young man , and you should be grateful that he 's even forgiving you , let alone standing by you . spinelli : while i certainly appreciate your spirited defense , and -- and i 'm grateful for the friendship that prompted it , i think we 're getting a little off track . maxie : no , spinelli , it 's okay . diane has every right to feel the way that she does , and ... i agree with her . yes , i was selfish and stupid and delusional to think that i could just give up our daughter , pass her off as dante and lulu 's , but however it happened -- however the truth came out -- i 'm grateful that it did before any more damage could be caused . diane : oh , there 's been enough damage to go around . maxie : [ sighs ] so , i understand , okay ? you 're -- you 're saying you 're doing this for spinelli 's benefit . diane : no . however much i do n't like what you did -- and i do n't like what you did -- that does not impinge upon your right to a vigorous legal defense . the law , in this case , is on your side . spinelli : great . so , how do we make it work for us ? diane : well , you have a couple of options . you could to the police . spinelli : the -- the police ? diane : dante and lulu are holding your child against your wishes . you could accuse them of kidnapping . spinelli : that seems unsavory . maxie : i do n't think we want to do that . what are our other options ? diane : i could file a court order , demanding that dante and lulu surrender the baby to you . lulu : would it be possible for us to sue maxie for custody of connie ? i -- we 've been connie 's parents since she was born . it ca n't be good for her to rip her out of the only home she 's ever known . i -- i 'm sure that if we could just tell a judge the situation that he or she would see it our way . alexis : i am so sorry , lulu . i know how much you think of connie as your daughter , and i know how devastating it is to think about losing her , but i highly doubt that a judge is going to allow you to keep her . faison : you talk a lot of nonsense . look at me . if you truly are my daughter and carry my dna , how can you say little cesar is n't my family ? britt : because i 'm your biological daughter , but ben is n't my biological son . anna : no more lies . tell us where we can find robin . dr. obrecht : i 've already told you -- she 's dead . robert : do n't even go there . i 've seen her with you , alive . dr. obrecht : you dreamt of her while you were in a coma . robert : you were trying to kill her . dr. obrecht : i stand corrected . it was a nightmare . robert : i came into the room . she was strapped to a bed . i took the needle meant for her . dr. obrecht : if you 're so certain my intent was to kill your daughter , would n't i have completed the task once you were out of commission ? anna : but you did n't . faison told me that she 's alive . dr. obrecht : you fool . he 'd say anything to please you . anna : he told me he 'd take me to her . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] cesar did n't want to take you to your daughter . he wanted to take you to his bed . [ voice breaking ] and when he failed to entice you , he tried to use me as your replacement . anna : i 'm sorry . what ? dr. obrecht : are you happy ? he wants only you . never mind that i am the one who 's loyal . i freed him from prison . i brought him a boy child . he wants me to wear your face in his bed ! i should have never made that mask in your image . [ scoffs ] it 's only given him more reason to inflict pain on me . anna : it 's obvious faison has hurt you . you could hurt him back by helping us . tell us where we can find robin . anna : faison does n't deserve you . you 've been loyal to him for years , and how does he repay that ? dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] anna : by humiliation . you 've risked your life , your freedom . and for what ? has he returned your affection ? i do n't think so . he just wants you to be me . you deserve more . dr. obrecht : and why is this of interest to you ? anna : i just think it 's time for faison to get what he deserves . do n't you ? i mean , you are gon na have to be punished for what you did to robert ... and to robin . but if you cooperate with us , i will see to it that the court goes easy on you , and i will put faison away for good . yeah ? your daughter , britt -- she said that you do n't care about her , but i know that 's not true . she may not agree with your methods , but you only want what 's best for her , 'cause you 're a mother . your child is your number - one priority . so , you can understand what i 'm going through -- believing that robin is alive and not being able to find her . and what about your own child ? your own daughter ? she 's suffering without her baby . you can put an end to all of this . you can have your revenge on faison ... if you just tell us where robin is . and maybe we can find britt 's baby , too . dr. obrecht : i will tell you what you want to know . robin : patrick is not the father of that little boy ? nikolas : no . robin : but obrecht told me that he was . nikolas : probably so you 'd be willing to take care of him . robin : no . i - i - i saw the dvd of the nurses ' ball , and britt walked onstage and announced to everybody that she was carrying patrick 's baby . nikolas : she was lying . she was in love with patrick , but he was n't in love with her . sabrina : patrick , you suffered an unimaginable loss . if you still need time to deal with that , it 's okay . you can . you do n't have to propose to me to try to prove something to me or to yourself . patrick : come on . is that what you think i 'm doing ? sabrina : look , i 'm just saying , if you -- if you want to take the proposal back , you can . we 'll just -- we 'll pretend it never happened . robin : i was so worried that patrick was losing his mind , wondering where his baby was . nikolas : where 's the baby now ? robin : obrecht came back a few hours ago and took him with faison . nikolas : do you know where they took him ? robin : no , i do n't know . nikolas : [ sighs ] did they say anything that might help me find them ? robin : all obrecht said was that faison had to spend time with his grandson . britt : ben is n't my flesh and blood , which means he ca n't be yours . faison : what 's the meaning of this , britta ? who is this child ? ! who is it ? some foundling your mother brought ... britt : no . faison : ... in order to win over my affection , or what ? britt : no , he 's my son . faison : well , did you adopt him ? britt : no . faison : no ! 'cause i remember your mother told me you gave birth ! britt : she was right . i gave birth . but she did n't tell you everything , okay ? i carried this child . i gave birth to him , but he 's not my biological son . he does n't have your blood . thank god . faison : [ sighs ] i do n't understand this . britt : mother says you 're some brilliant scientist . figure it out for yourself . lulu : alexis , i know that we are dealing with a crazy situation here , which means that most judges wo n't have dealt with a case like this . so how can you be so certain that they wo n't rule in our favor ? alexis : well , i can give you an educated guess on how i think the judge will rule . connie is maxie and spinelli 's biological child , and in family court , they almost always rule in favor of the biological parents . lulu : [ sighs ] alexis : lulu , if you seek custody , it will be an uphill battle , and i would be lying to you if i thought you stood a - a chance . lulu : [ voice breaking ] so there 's no way for us to keep custody of connie ? you 're 100 % positive ? alexis : as draconian as it is , family law , particularly when pertaining to children , is based on , if you can believe this , property law . so , connie , because she was created from spinelli and maxie 's dna -- it gives them rights . their rights are pre - eminent . lulu : well , what about connie 's right ? what about connie 's right to a happy home , to the parents that she knows and she loves ? alexis : lulu , listen to me . if you pursue this , you will not only be wasting a lot of money , you will take a situation that is so horrible , and you will make it much worse . [ connie cooing ] lulu : what -- what are we supposed to do ? i m -- wh -- are we supposed to take her and run , go underground somewhere , live like fugitives for the rest of our life ? is this what i have to do to keep my daughter ? alexis : no , please , do n't do that . [ sighs ] uh , all right , look . maybe -- maybe there is another way . spinelli : so , how would this court order work ? diane : i go in front of a judge and argue your case . if the judge agrees with me , he signs a document which forces dante and lulu to surrender all rights to the baby . maxie : that sounds great , but what if the judge does n't agree ? diane : well , this is new york , and in new york , as in most states , the courts bend over backwards to see to it that the biological parents have the right to raise the child . maxie : how soon can you get this court order ? diane : how soon can i get in front of a judge ? spinelli : and once you procure it , dante and lulu would just give us our baby ? diane : in a perfect world , yes . but we all know that this is not a perfect world . lulu : you know of another way that we can keep connie ? tell me . i will do it . alexis : it depends on how far you want to go , lulu , and , uh , i do n't even know if it 's remotely possible . lulu : i want to keep my baby , alexis . i will do whatever it takes to make that happen . alexis : even if it destroys someone ? lulu : destroy someone ? who ? alexis : maxie . you 'd have to prove that she 's an unfit parent . lulu : prove that maxie is an unfit mother ? how would that even work ? alexis : the law in family court is to act in the best interest of the child . it 's the duty of the court to try to ensure that the child in question is in a safe , loving , and stable home . that 's the precedent . lulu : well , how would this work for us ? alexis : you would have to prove that maxie would somehow neglect or endanger her child . that would be the only way i think you 'd get a shot at custody . lulu : maxie is unfit . but there 's no question . alexis : i do n't want to mislead you . this will be very difficult to prove . lulu ? i know that maxie has lied to you , and i know how much she has hurt you , and that is not okay , but that is a long , long way from being able to prove that she is an unfit mother . lulu : do you think that she would be good for connie ? alexis : it does n't matter what i think . it matters what you think . it matters what you want and what i 'm able to prove , and i am telling you right now that it will be very difficult to prove that she 's an unfit mother . lulu : yeah , but not for me . look at everything that maxie 's done . alexis : maxie is your best friend . spinelli : are we to infer that alexis may find a way for dante and lulu to win custody of our child ? diane : well , i 'm sure she 'll try . maxie : wait . you just said the courts favor biological parents . diane : they do , but alexis is a formidable attorney . she 'll do her research . she will craft an argument , very compelling , based on precedent , i 'm sure , because somewhere , someone has to have found sufficient cause for the adoptive parents to retain custody of the child , even when the biological parents want that child back . maxie : but -- but that does n't apply to our situation or spinelli and me . diane : i 'm just trying to explain to you that this is going to be a fight . maxie : well , we 're already fighting . i just want to know we can win . diane : dante and lulu will lose , but i 'm going to warn you that , before all is said and done , things could get ugly . lulu : maxie was my best friend . but not after this . not after everything she 's done . i can tell you anything you need to know to prove that she 's unfit . alexis : lulu , i want you to go home , and i want you to take some time and think about it . lulu : what for ? i know exactly what i 'm doing , alexis . i know every lie that maxie has ever told . i know every scam that she 's -- she 's ever tried to cover up . i know every single harmful , hurtful , possibly illegal , and definitely immoral thing that maxie 's done . once i tell what i know , no court would even allow maxie to raise a parakeet , and they certainly will not award her custody of my precious baby . alexis : i understand that your first impulse is to fight . i have empathy for you as a mother , but can you do this to maxie ? can you ? britt : so , father , you must see now that you do n't want my baby . faison : well , i see you lying , trying to trick me into giving you this baby ! britt : i 'm not lying ! if you do n't believe me , go ask my mother ! faison : that cow ? i 'm not gon na ask her nothing . [ sighs ] britt : please , just let me have him . ple -- faison : i always tire of you quickly . go . please , go . just go . britt : i 'm not going anywhere without my -- faison : just go ! britt : i 'm not going anywhere without my son . anna : you 're gon na tell us where robin is ? or britt 's baby ? or both ? dr. obrecht : you 'll see . robert : where do we find them ? dr. obrecht : there 's a laboratory downstairs . what you 're looking for is there . anna : robin 's in the lab ... with the baby ? dr. obrecht : i 've said enough . you 'll see for yourself . robert : if you 're lying , we 'll be back . but , in the meantime ... dr. obrecht : [ groans ] robin : obrecht was really vague . i - i mean , i ca n't be sure where they took the baby . nikolas : well , they might still be here . and britt 's upstairs . i have go to her . wait -- wait here . i 'll come back for you . robin : what ? no . i have to come with you . nikolas : i 'll come back , robin . i swear . robin : nikolas , no . you do n't understand . i have been locked up in here for a really long time . i ca n't be here . i have to come with you ! nikolas : obrecht and faison might still be on the grounds , so who knows what they 're planning ? and you -- you know how crazy jerry is . and , honestly , i do n't know -- i do n't know how -- how loyal the staff here is -- is to me at this point , okay ? i - i swear , i 'll come back . you 're safer here . robin : no , nikolas . you 're not leaving me behind . patrick : i do n't want to take back the proposal . i know what i want , and it 's you . sabrina , last year , i was -- i was caught in a - a fog of grief , and , quietly , you came into my life with your -- your big hair and your big glasses , and you made me and emma smile when i did n't know if we were ever gon na be able to smile again . before you , i was simply putting one foot in front of the other , just trying to get through my day , and then , before i knew it , everything was better . i was better , and i realized that -- that i could i have a life again ... without robin . sabrina : [ sighs ] patrick : i know this is all sudden , and this proposal surprised me just as much as it surprised you . but i love you , and i know i do n't have a ring , but i have this -- i want you to be my wife . i want to have a family with you and with emma . and i want you to be beside me for the rest of my life . sabrina : [ crying ] patrick : sabrina santiago , will you marry me ? maxie : i was hoping getting custody of our biological child would be simpler than this . spinelli : with less potential for ugliness . diane : i 'm trying to explain to you that it is never simple or pretty when it comes to parental rights . maxie : whatever we have to do , i 'm ready . i want to bring our baby home . i 've loved her since the moment i knew that she belonged to spinelli and me . spinelli : so have i . maxie : get that court order , diane . we 'll do whatever it takes to bring our baby home . lulu : i have to protect my baby . alexis : lulu , i want you to go home and talk to dante , and i want you to cool down and take some time and think about it . lulu : i 've taken all the time that i need . i do n't want to lose connie . i ca n't lose her . file the paperwork . i will go after maxie . i 'll do whatever it takes to keep my baby with me . [ ben fusses ] faison : do n't make this difficult , britta . i 'm leaving , and i 'm taking cesar . britt : you 're gon na have to kill me first . anna : psst ! robert : oh , damn it . anna : she 's not here . robin : dingdong , the witch is [ sighs ] down for the count . nikolas : here . here . here . if she tries anything , shoot her . robin : oh , do n't worry . i will . go find britt and the baby . nikolas : okay . robin : [ breathing heavily ] britt : get away from my son , you freak ! [ whimpers ] faison : the boy stays with me . britt : [ panting ] never . never ! nikolas : take your hands off her ! i swear to god , i 'll kill you right here . britt : [ panting ] robert : obrecht lied to us . anna : [ sighs ] maybe not . robert , look ! oh , my god . our daughter was here . robin was here . robin : i 'm free . i 'm finally free . and guess what . i won , obrecht . after all those times that i got so close , it 's happening . i 'm finally going home to patrick and emma . finally , i 'm going home to my family . sabrina : [ voice breaking ] you 're really sure about this ? patrick : as sure as i 've ever been . sabrina : [ crying ] [ sniffles ] patrick : will you marry me ? sabrina : [ chuckles ] yes . [ chuckling ] yes , patrick , i 'll marry you .

things appear to be `` unfolding `` with robin returning , the finding of britt 's baby , and the custody battle for baby connie . lulu asks alexis to represent her , although alexis warns her she has no legal rights to a baby who 's not hers and dante 's biological child , unless of course , she 's willing to attempt to prove maxie an unfit mother in court . angry and determined to keep baby connie , lulu is willing to destroy her former best friend . diane is ready to represent maxie and spinelli , confident that she can win their case for them but admits she believes she finds it reprehensible that maxie has lied about connie to many people . maxie & spinelli urge diane to get a court order , so they can get their baby back .

[ scene_break ] carly : you had a meeting about me ? franco : yeah . i ran in to michael at the hospital . we had a nice , long chat . carly : you talked to michael about me ? franco : yeah , about you -- and about sonny and about aj . [ scene_break ] kiki : you think my mother killed aj ? michael : it 's a possibility . kiki : carlos rivera confessed . where is this coming from ? michael : sabrina santiago . she and carlos knew each other from puerto rico . they were even engaged at a point . she went to see him at pentonville the other day , and he convinced her that he did n't kill aj . supposedly , your mother forced him to make a false confession . kiki : why -- because she supposedly killed aj ? michael : ava never actually admitted that to carlos . kiki : so , it 's all just speculation , michael . michael : carlos worked for the jeromes . your mom could have used him to cover her own ass . kiki : you ca n't even be sure that carlos is telling the truth . michael : if carlos is telling the truth and if ava forced him to make the false confession , who else would she be protecting ? [ scene_break ] ava : do we have to get into this now ? silas : well , i ca n't imagine the next time i 'll have your undivided attention . ava : you know why i kept kiki from you . i thought you put nina in that coma . everybody did . and when i found out that you lied about our affair to the police , i just thought a love child would damn you even further . silas : [ sighs ] ava : i thought i was protecting you . silas : okay . yes , there were plenty of misunderstandings to go around . ava : yeah , there were . silas : hey , you know , credit where credit is due . you did a great job raising her . kiki is a very special girl . that -- that could n't have been easy , doing that on your own . i do n't think anyone would have faulted you for giving her up . ava : silas ... for a smart man , you really are such an idiot . you know that ? i loved you so much back then . i would have done anything to hold on to any piece of you i had . [ scene_break ] nina : rosalie knows where ava is hiding . madeline : rosalie , your nurse ? well , that 's a stroke of luck , is n't it ? nina : well , it would be if rosalie told me where ava is . madeline : it 's so hard to find good help these days . nina : right ? right ? and she 's not even help anymore . we had a falling out . madeline : what did you do ? nina : why would you assume that i did something ? why would you assume that it 's my fault ? she was working for me , and i asked her to do a little favor for -- well , actually , i paid her to do a favor for me , and she turned it into a cause célèbre . madeline : what was this little favor you asked her to do ? nina : i asked her to sleep with kiki 's boyfriend so i could destroy kiki . madeline : oh , honey . nina : i do n't need your judgment . i just need you to fix this for me . madeline : i certainly would like to , but now you 've made it very difficult . nina : well , what am i supposed to do ? rosalie wo n't return my calls . madeline : maybe she 'll return mine . [ scene_break ] rosalie : [ chuckles ] do n't tell me . you have an ex named rosalie ? how bad of a number did she do on you ? nathan : no , no , no . it 's nothing like that . you are n't a nurse , by any chance , are you ? rosalie : how did you know ? nathan : i think you work for my sister , nina clay . rosalie : nina ? no , her brother 's name is ... nathan : james . nathan 's my middle name . rosalie : oh , my -- you 're j ! oh , i ca n't believe we 've never met . she talks about you all the time . nathan : yeah . nina 's -- nina 's been really great to me , which is why i 'm ... rosalie : what ? nathan : i do n't mean to be rude , but i need your help . i have n't been able to track nina down , and i 'm worried about her . do you know where she is ? madeline : if this goes to voicemail -- [ sighs ] [ cell phone rings ] rosalie : excuse me . huh . i do n't recognize the number . it 's probably a telemarketer . nathan : it could be nina , though . would you -- would you mind picking it up ? rosalie : uh , no problem . rosalie martinez . madeline : rosalie , hello . this is madeline reeves , nina 's mother . i think it 's time we had a little chat . [ scene_break ] tj : [ sighs ] you 're not supposed to be back here . jordan : when i told you that things got a little complicated and then you implied that i was referring to shawn , why ? tj : look , i was waiting to hear it from you , but you have n't been around , so i 'm just gon na come right out and say it . i know you and shawn are sleeping together . jordan : say what ? tj : yeah . so , what 's the deal ? are you two together now ? jordan : [ sighs ] i told him not to tell you . tj : why -- because i would n't approve ? jordan : no , baby . no . because i did n't want you shutting him out like you did me . i love you , thomas , okay ? and i know that things have been really hard for you these last few years , and i 'm trying to be there for you , but you keep pushing me away . tj : yeah . i 've had my reasons , okay ? jordan : that 's fair enough , and maybe i deserve that , all right ? look , i just took comfort in knowing that you can at least open up to shawn , you know ? and i was worried that if you shut him out that you would n't have anybody else left . tj : i 'm gon na tell you like i told shawn . i 'm not gon na ice him out because you two are together . jordan : hey , if it 's any consolation , we 're not together anymore . tj : ca n't say that i 'm not surprised . jordan : what do you mean ? tj : well , shawn 's a stand - up guy . i 'm sure he thought twice about being involved with anyone who pushes heroin to kids . jordan : you have no idea what you 're talking about . [ scene_break ] shawn : so , franco visited his mother before i got there . sonny : what 's he doing there ? i thought he hated his mother . shawn : yeah , but it 's possible that franco and heather are n't nearly as on the outs as we thought they were . now , if she does n't hate him , she has no motive to kill him , which makes it hard for us to pin her for the murder . so , what do you want to do ? want to call the whole thing off or what ? sonny : [ sighs heavily ] [ scene_break ] carly : what did you do ? franco : oh , no , carly . i 'm sorry . you -- you thought that i told michael about sonny killing aj ? carly : you did n't ? franco : carly , i swear to you that michael will not get that information from me . carly : what did you and michael talk about ? franco : well , neither one of his fathers is / was a big fan of mine . carly : okay . what 's the point of revisiting painful history ? carly : well , i felt like we should hash some stuff out , and , okay , we 're never gon na have a coke -- well , not anytime soon -- but i did ask him to be my best man . carly : you did ? oh . oh . well ... i hope you were n't too disappointed . franco : oh , no . not at all . he said yes . carly : he did ? franco : yeah . he 's gon na stand up for me . carly : really ? franco : mm - hmm . carly : how the hell did you pull that off ? franco : well , i just told him how happy it would make you . carly : michael -- i mean ... franco : i know , right ? carly : ... he just looks out for me , and -- franco : yeah . he 's your son . he loves you . he supports you . so , we have agreed to table our issues for your special day . [ scene_break ] michael : i realize this is difficult for you to hear , but i did n't want to hide it from you . she 's your mother . you have every right to know . kiki : michael , you said it yourself -- assuming that carlos is telling the truth . what if he just did that to save face with sabrina ? michael : no , it 's too late for that . he already confessed to killing aj . he 's doing 20 years to life in pentonville . kiki : why would he tell sabrina ? why would n't he call the cops or , better yet , call his lawyer to appeal , to have his confession thrown out ? you know why ? because he does n't have any proof that my mother did it . michael : i know you and your mother just repaired your relationship , and i hope for your sake that this is n't true . kiki : it 's not true , michael . michael : i need to be sure that carlos ' original confession was real , okay ? that 's why i need to talk to your mother . do you have any idea where she is right now ? [ scene_break ] silas : well , ava , our affair caused a lot of heartache for a lot of people . one good thing came out of it -- kiki . ava : look at you -- proud father . looks good on you . silas : you 're in better shape . i 'll give you another dose in a couple hours . ava : ca n't morgan do that ? silas : it 's a syringe , ava , not a xbox controller . ava : [ laughs ] well , wo n't your wife wonder where you are ? silas : i doubt it . ava : really ? well , kiki told me that you and nina were giving your marriage another go . silas : things change . nina 's changed . she 's not the same person i married all those years ago . [ scene_break ] madeline : i do n't really want to talk on the phone . could we meet somewhere ? rosalie : uh , yeah . right now 's not really a good time . nathan : is it her ? nina , nina , is that you ? madeline : james ? nathan : mother ? what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] kiki : where 's my mother right now ? um ... i could n't tell you . michael : she 's probably at home . she does n't leave the house much these days , from what i remember , so why do n't we swing by her penthouse so i can talk to her ? kiki : no , she 's not -- she 's not there . michael : i thought you just said you do n't know where she is . kiki : i do n't . i just , um ... i spoke to julian , and she 's missing . no one knows where she is . sorry . michael : if ava forced carlos to cover for her , she 's probably having him watched . she 'd know that sabrina went to visit him . she probably thinks he said something . kiki : michael , no . that 's just speculation . michael : look , it 's possible that your mom took off before the cops could reopen the investigation . kiki : i do n't think so . michael : i know -- i know you want to protect your mother , okay ? but if she killed aj , this changes everything . i need to call this in to the police . [ scene_break ] silas : nina has this vendetta against a lot of people . ava : including me ? silas : oh , you 're definitely on the list . ava : i knew that pious act of hers was too good to be true . what is she gon na do -- sub - tweet about me ? silas : if it was as simple as all that , i 'd say you 're on your own , but it 's much more serious , ava . ava : well , that sounds a little bit scary . what -- what 's going on ? silas : let 's just say i 'm glad nina does n't know where you are . ava : well , she may not , but that nurse of hers sure does . [ scene_break ] madeline : james ? nina : j ? is it j ? madeline : i - i - i was hoping that rosalie might know where your sister is . i guess great minds think alike , huh ? nathan : unfortunately , no . rosalie did n't have any information . she and nina had a falling out . madeline : well , that 's a shame . did she give you any information ? nathan : no . i 'm gon na stay on it , though . nina could n't have just vanished . she has to be somewhere . madeline : i do n't doubt it . nathan : all right , look -- do n't wait up , all right ? i 'll be home later . madeline : all right . james , please be careful . nina : good job , mother . madeline : [ chuckles ] might have been nice if you 'd have told me that rosalie and james are new best friends . nina : i did n't even know they knew each other . madeline : nina , he 's a police officer . he 's investigating . of course , he would investigate staff , but what i do n't really understand here is if you and she are on such bad terms , why did n't she give you up ? nina : she 's not gon na do that . i assured her if she said anything that i would reveal to the world her dirty secret . madeline : do n't be withholding . what do you have on her ? [ scene_break ] tj : what part about the story did i get wrong ? jordan : i just mean that i did n't realize that heroin was part of the sale . tj : oh . so , you thought you were just pounding coke . real classy , mom . jordan : tj , come on . what is it gon na take for you to realize i am not the woman that you think i am ? [ scene_break ] carly : i am so happy that you got michael on board . franco : yeah . one down . i do n't suppose we 're gon na get joss to stand up for you as maid of honor ? carly : not looking good , no . there was a whole corn incident this morning , so my mom is going to do the honors . franco : oh . that 's nice of her . carly : yes . she 's being very supportive . franco : and i appreciate it . it 's gon na be nice with both of our families there . carly : well , let 's hope not all . i mean , i would really hate for heather to make an appearance . franco : [ coughs ] [ scene_break ] sonny : you know what ? i think it 's actually good that franco paid his mother a visit . we could use it . shawn : how ? sonny : let 's say franco 's dead , right ? shawn : mm - hmm . sonny : and , uh , heather 's outside with her cell phone . the good people at ferncliff are gon na check the visitor logs . am i right ? shawn : well , but they would show that franco stopped by , which contradicts the story that they 're on the outs . sonny : heather webber -- the cops do n't care about her at all . they 'll think that , you know , franco said something to piss off the maniac , and it is franco , by the way . shawn : yeah . he makes enemies wherever he goes . sonny : right , pushing buttons . you know what ? franco actually gave -- he gave us heather 's motive . [ scene_break ] tj : you know , this is not the first time you tried to tell me i did n't understand what 's really going on , and i would love to believe that , but they 're just words , all right ? your actions say otherwise . jordan : i know how it looks , okay ? tj : and you claim you came to port charles to see me , but it only took you a few weeks to get mixed up in selling drugs -- again . jordan : i 'm so sorry that i 'm hurting you . tj : mom , look me in my eyes and tell me you 're not up to your neck with a bunch of dealers . jordan : everything that i have ever done has been to protect you . i hope when this is all over that you can understand that . good luck on your test . [ crying ] [ scene_break ] kiki : michael , can we just please talk about this ? i know that you want answers , but if sabrina really thought that what carlos told her was true , she would have called the cops . this is gossip . it 's hearsay . michael : as long as the theory of your mother killing aj is out there , unproven one way or the other , it 's gon na be hanging over us . kiki : no . no , it wo n't -- not if you do n't let it . michael : no , we need answers , okay ? and the cops can get it faster than we can . [ scene_break ] morgan : something wrong ? ava : well ... silas was just telling me that nina is still very angry with me , and she blames me for breaking up their marriage , and that concerns me because it 's your friend rosalie who is one of the few people that knows where i am . morgan : i told you that rosalie promised me she wo n't say anything . i know she wo n't say anything . silas : i hate to break it to you , kid -- nina knows that you 're in this together . they 're thick as thieves . morgan : well , that 's not what i heard . i heard rosalie 's not on good terms with your wife , nina , and that she 's done helping her . [ scene_break ] rosalie : try not to worry too much about your sister . she 's very resourceful . she can definitely take care of herself . nathan : well , that 's what i 'm worried about , though . if nina feels like she does n't need any help , then she might just disappear , and i 'll never find her . and i know i can help her . rosalie : you 'll find her . or she 'll find you . you 're her baby brother . she loves you . nathan : hey , if you , uh -- if you hear anything ... rosalie : uh , yeah . definitely . nathan : thanks , rosalie .

[ scene_break ] franco : [ coughing ] i 'm sorry . why -- wh - why would heather show up at the wedding ? carly : it 's nothing , probably . it 's just that olivia had another one of her visions earlier at the metro court . franco : she 's still doing that ? carly : apparently . and she said she saw heather with a knife . i mean , i just think olivia 's having another lsd episode and that her premonitions are just coincidence , but hearing heather 's name gave me the chills . franco : well , heather is locked up tighter than fort knox . they built a whole separate wing for her . believe me , heather 's not going anywhere without me knowing all about it . carly : i 'm being silly . i know . are you hungry ? i 'm feelin ' pizza . franco : wow ! now you 're the one having psychic premonitions , 'cause that is exactly what i was thinking -- pizza !

[ sighs ] julian : and what she did is n't ? alexis : you are not on the birth certificate . you have no legal claim yet . so we have to strategize and handle this appropriately . julian : the dna test right here proves i 'm the father . alexis : the dna test was obtained through improper channels . i stole the binky , so we have to handle this with the utmost care . julian : oh , is that how olivia handled this -- with the utmost care ? was -- was allowing me to grieve for my son some sort of a legal maneuver ? was it within her maternal rights to make me think that my baby had been taken from me ? and not just taken , cremated . burned to ashes . the only thing i have left from my son is that little hospital bracelet . she got to hold him and love him . she did n't just deprive me of my son , she made me believe he was dead . [ scene_break ] olivia : i can not tell you how glad i am that julian jerome has no claim to this child . morgan : yeah . well , you lucked out , 'cause matteo here seems to be a pretty great kid . olivia : [ chuckles ] yeah . i think i 'll keep him . [ baby babbles ] morgan : listen , um ... you know , i know you had your reasons for why you did n't tell dad about dante and why you kept them apart , but from what i hear , you were a champion of a mom , and i 'm willing to bet that matteo here is gon na grow up to be just as good as dante . [ scene_break ] lulu : dante , does dillon know something that i do n't ? dante : lulu , i -- lulu : we have already been through so much together , and we 're gon na have another child . i just want everything out in the open . so if there 's something that you have to say , just say it . dante : there 's nothing , okay ? lulu : okay . well , i think i did the right thing by telling dillon he could n't continue filming on the boat . dante : i think that 's for the best . [ scene_break ] maxie : i loved being in that movie . nathan : i know . maxie : and i was challenging myself . and i was good , damn it . at least i think i was good . and even if i was n't , i was having the time of my life . nathan : well , look , now that you know that you can , i 'm sure that there 'll be another opportunity . maxie : oh , i refuse to give up on this opportunity . we might not be able to film at the haunted star , but dillon and i are gon na find a way to finish that movie . nathan : how are you gon na do that ? maxie : by depending on the kindness of strangers . courtesy of fabphilanthropy . nathan : which is ... ? maxie : crowd funding . i promised dillon we could use it to raise enough money to finish the film . nathan : can you ? maxie : probably not . which is why we need to find an investor with enough money to pitch in . nathan : well , why does n't dillon just ask his father ? maxie : [ sighs ] he refuses to ask his dad for money . and he wo n't ask tracy for money because of the whole family pride thing . and , of course , i do n't know anyone with that kind of cash . but i refuse to give up hope . we just need to find an investor with a big infusion of cash to give us .

alexis wastes no time presenting julian with the dna test results she secretly obtained that prove that he is the biological father of the baby olivia claims she adopted and named matteo . finding out that olivia not only lied to him about the baby but had him falsely believing his son died without so much as a chance to meet or say good - bye to him , when all along he 's alive and well , julian is infuriated and ready to take action against her , so he can have legal rights to his son . alexis urges him not to take drastic `` illegal `` action to set himself up to give olivia good legal justification to prevent him from having legal rights to his child while she goes to petition for a judge to hear julian 's case . while at the station , dante and lulu overhear her and dante urges her to know his mom had reason to do what she did in order to keep baby leo safe , like she did with him , and not like alexis did with her own daughter . she tells him she understands but intends to protect julian 's legal rights . lulu assesses the situation and is still completely `` in the dark `` about her husband 's secret as she tells him she 's so grateful they have no lies between them and she wants to have another baby . dante is obviously not comfortable hearing that . meanwhile , julian is not about to wait or do what alexis has asked him and goes to confront a completely uncooperative and unapologetic olivia . noticing out infuriated and ruthless he appears , olivia tells him he is not fit to go anywhere near `` her `` child . nina is ready to not only financially support franco with her trust fund . she wants to `` buy `` kiki who is completely unfriendly to her . maxie and nathan are able to persuade her to financially bail out dillon 's film so maxie has her acting opportunity . sonny is not about to listen to patrick 's advice that he not leave the hospital and gets physical therapy . the thought of being paralyzed for life is not ok and not something he even wants to consider .

carly : let go . logan : you do n't tell me what to do . if lulu and i want to be together , that 's our business , and you 'll stay the hell out of it . carly : i 'm going to tell you one more time -- you let go of me , or you 're not going to live long enough to say goodbye to lulu . [ scene_break ] lulu : you live in the middle of nowhere , johnny . every time you step foot outside your father 's house , there are two of his men right behind you . johnny : you ca n't be too careful . lulu : there is a difference between caution and keeping you on a leash . no wonder you take off so much . if i lived here , i would make a run for it , too . johnny : i 'm sure you would . lulu : look , i get that your father 's business is very dangerous , but that does n't give him a right to keep you as a prisoner . you need to start living life on your own terms . johnny : here . lulu : what is that for ? johnny : you can go now . [ scene_break ] ric : well , i 'm going to hazard a guess and say that my father did n't just stop in here for coffee . you dragged him in off the street , maybe at gunpoint ? that would constitute a crime . if you want to press charges , i 'd be more than happy to prosecute them . [ scene_break ] anthony : i have a wonderful garden filled with roses , such beautiful flowers . and , you know , if you give them the proper care and attention , they can bloom past the first frost . do you keep roses , mr. corinthos ? sonny : i 'm -- i 'm here to discuss the situation in port charles . anthony : screw port charles ! there 's a frost coming ! everything will be dying off soon ! [ scene_break ] patrick : you and lucky may be getting a divorce , but you still share two kids together . you ca n't honestly think this is a good idea for lucky to help robin have a child ? elizabeth : if robin wants to have a baby and lucky 's willing to help her , then that 's his decision . it has nothing to do with me . patrick : well , maybe not , but it has everything to do with your two kids . if lucky agrees to help robin , that baby is going to be cam and jake 's little brother or sister . they 're not going to grow up together -- if robin has her way , they probably wo n't even know each other . she 's bound and determined to do this on her own . elizabeth : well , being a single mother is hard , not impossible . people do it every day . patrick : i understand that , but it does n't mean robin should . elizabeth : if you have a problem with this , maybe you need to take it up with her . [ scene_break ] lucky : yeah , i know this may be none of my business , but why are n't you asking patrick to be the father of your baby ? robin : uh -- patrick and i broke up . lucky : i 'm sorry . i -- robin : do n't be . really , it 's -- it 's just -- it better this way . see , patrick did n't want children , and because being a mother is n't something that i 'm willing to give up , i had to give up patrick instead . lucky : that could n't be easy . robin : it took me a really long time to let my guard down with patrick . but when i finally did , i fell completely in love with him . the truth is i 'm still in love with him , but patrick is not an option anymore . i 've decided that i can do this on my own well , not completely on my own , obviously , so that 's why i 'm asking you for your help . lucky : why me ? robin : we 've known each other almost our whole lives . you 've always been a good friend . and judging from jake , you make beautiful babies . i would just like you to at least think about it . [ scene_break ] logan : you want to make threats ? you go right ahead . carly : you got exactly two seconds to let me go , or i call jason , i tell him what you 've done , and he blows your head off . logan : what are you doing ? carly : i 'm calling jason . logan : look , carly , listen , i was out of line . i should not have grabbed you like that , okay ? carly : no , you should n't have . logan : look , i 'm just worried about lulu , all right ? she 's not answering her phone , no one 's seen her since last night -- it 's like she just disappeared . carly : or she 's wised up ! logan : l get that you do n't like me , okay ? listen to me . i care a lot about her . carly : yeah , you proved that by jumping into bed with maxie . logan : i was an idiot . carly : you 're a liar , and you 're a cheater , and after what you just pulled , i 'm more convinced than ever that you do n't belong anywhere near lulu . [ scene_break ] trevor : oh , my , it 'd be very tempting to send you to prison . but in the end , i do n't think it 's worth the time to press charges . because , you see , any competent lawyer could get the case thrown out of court for lack of evidence . ric : well , charging jason with assault would get him off the street . trevor : yeah , an hour or so -- unless you trump up murder charges while mr. morgan is down at the precinct . ric : the last time jason was charged with murder , it was n't fabricated . he walked into lorenzo alcazar 's home , shot him in cold blood , and then he dumped his body in the harbor . trevor : well , you could n't make that stick in open court . so unless you want to be next , i would suggest that you stop antagonizing mr. morgan . because it seems to me he could put a bullet in both of us . but then again , you know , there would be a terrible bloody mess on the boss ' floor , and you would n't have the time to clean it up with such short notice . so , come on , ric , let 's go . ric : no , i 'm going to stick around for a while . i have a few more questions for mr. morgan . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm -- i 'm just here to talk . your people have been moving into my territory . is that -- is that happening without your knowledge ? anthony : i know all about it , mr. corinthos -- port charles is mine . sonny : that 's going to be a problem . anthony : there 's a simple solution . sonny : whoa , whoa , whoa . anthony : your turn . sonny : i 'm not doing this i 'm not doing this game right now . anthony : i 'm offering you a possible future , take it . sonny : i do n't want a future . okay , okay , give me -- i 'll take the gun . sonny : i do n't play games . anthony : `` i do n't play games . i do n't play games ! `` you 'll play with me ! [ scene_break ] kate : jax , i 'm sorry i 'm late . this is not at all how i 'm accustomed to doing business . jax : no , it 's fine . i was running late myself . kate : i 'm not sure i believe you , you 're always so gallant . jax : yes -- with all the good it does me . kate : are you okay ? jax : i 'm sorry , i should 've called . you know , i -- i should 've canceled because i 'm in no condition to give you feedback on your proposal . kate : well , that 's all right . we can reschedule -- assuming you 're still interested in the project ? jax : oh , of course i 'm still interested . why would n't i be ? i mean , you 've been a leader in the fashion industry for years . any magazine that you create will be a success . kate : well , that 's very flattering . jax : i never flatter about business . but i want to give this project my full attention , which is why i would like to reschedule . kate : okay . i 'll just call your office and set up another time . jax : great . kate : okay . jax : thank you . kate : jax , um , i do n't mean to -- are you -- are you meeting someone else ? jax : no , no . why -- why do you ask ? kate : look , if i just promise not to talk about magazines , and we can talk about art or travel or -- or why anyone would think surfing is a good idea for a hobby , if i -- could i just , um , stay here with you ? [ scene_break ] logan : look , when i made that deal with maxie , i had no idea how wonderful or amazing lulu was or how much i actually cared about her . she really is the best thing that 's ever happened to me , and i wanted to come clean with lulu about the bet . but i knew if i did , she 'd never speak with me again , and i could n't risk losing her . carly : so you 're not only a jerk , you 're a coward . a real man would own up to his mistakes and face the consequences . logan : look , carly , i know i 've handled things badly , but lulu 's willing to give me another chance , all right ? i 'm not going to screw that up . i swear on my life i 'm never going to hurt that girl again . carly : you 're damn right you 're not going to because i 'm not going to let you get anywhere near logan : you have n't heard a single word i 've said , have you ? carly : i hear a lot of excuses , okay , so get the hell out of my house before i have you removed one piece at a time . lulu : i would n't want to bore you , so do n't worry , you 'll never have to see me again . [ scene_break ] johnny : do n't forget your cash . lulu : i do n't want your money -- correction -- your big , scary dad 's money . just because he 's an overprotective freak does n't excuse the way you treat people . johnny : you hitched a ride with me , lulu , and now you 're trying to make it out to be more than it was . lulu : for the record , you 're the one who pursued me . johnny : i did n't make you get in the car . lulu : oh -- you know what ? everyone warned me that you 're crazy , and it turns out they 're right . let 's go , milo . milo : with pleasure . [ scene_break ] ric : so i hear johnny zacchara 's paid several visits to port charles recently -- and he 's reputed for being unstable and very violent . what are the chances that he 's responsible for leticia 's murder ? jason : i got nothing to say without my attorney . ric : i see . still refusing to cooperate with law enforcement , even though we 're trying to solve the murder of an innocent woman whose only crime was agreeing to work for sonny . you know , leticia raised michael and morgan from the time they were born . she loved and cared for those children as if they were her own , and what 'd she get for it , hmm ? a phone cord wrapped around her neck . if johnny zacchara is responsible for leticia 's murder , jason , then he needs to be put in prison before he can do it to somebody else . and if you have any information , i would appreciate it if you would tell me . jason : why do n't you call diane -- you got her number ? ric : okay , you know what ? you do n't speak for yourself , okay , you certainly do n't think for yourself , and god knows you do n't make a move unless sonny tells you to -- i mean , look what happened tonight . you wanted to kill both me and my father , but you could n't take action unless sonny gave you the approval . jason : like i said , i got nothing to say to you . ric : as a mob enforcer , you have a reputation for being a well - trained , highly feared killing machine . but the only problem is that you ca n't pull the trigger unless sonny orders you to . that makes you nothing more than a trained guard dog . [ door opens and closes ] [ scene_break ] anthony : this is your one last chance , mr. corinthos . play the game , or pay with the lives of everyone you love . sonny : i did n't come here to disturb you , i came -- anthony : you do n't think i know what you 've done ? you stole my son ! he 's all i have left in the world , and you tried to take him away from me ! i 'm going to take your sons away . i 'm going to slit their throats from ear to ear , and i 'm going to make you watch while they bleed . anthony : i have to talk to the gardener . the roses need to be pruned before the weather turns . sonny : max -- max , come on . [ scene_break ] patrick : okay , i 'm trying to get robin to understand that having a baby is a huge , life - changing decision . you do n't just wake up one day and decide to get pregnant . elizabeth : robin is not an impulsive person . you know she would n't make a decision like this without thinking it through . patrick : see , that 's the problem , elizabeth -- i do n't believe she 's thinking . she 's reacting -- or , in this case , overreacting -- to our breakup . elizabeth : sometimes it takes a breakup to put things into perspective . you 're forced to take stock of your life and then you begin to realize what 's really important . and maybe robin took a long , hard look and decided that being a mother is what really matters to her . patrick : if robin wants to be a mother , that 's fine -- adopt a child that really needs a home . do n't chase every guy around town looking for sperm to have a baby . elizabeth : how she chooses to become a mother is up to her . patrick : elizabeth , you ca n't really think this is a good idea , that she 's asking lucky for help ? elizabeth : i do n't get a say in what lucky does . my marriage is over , and i 'm focusing on the future . and if that 's what robin is doing , then who are we to tell her she 's wrong ? [ scene_break ] lucky : i am honored that you would even think to ask me to be your child 's father . robin : you do n't want to do it . lucky : it -- robin : it 's okay . i understand . lucky : elizabeth and i , we 're going through a messy divorce and the kids are in the middle of it . i 'm not even allowed to see cameron and jake at all . robin : oh , my god , lucky , i 'm so sorry , i had no idea . lucky : it 's okay . it 's only been a few hours and it 's driving me crazy . that 's -- that 's how i know i just could n't help father a child and not be a part of it . and since that 's what it sounds like you want me to do , i do n't think i 'll be able to help . [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm sorry , i might be misinterpreting this but , um , are you asking if -- i -- i thought that you were involved with -- with sonny . kate : yes , i 'm -- well -- jax : like i said -- okay , okay , i 'm sorry -- kate : no , no , no . okay , that 's the problem -- sonny has a -- jax : oh . kate : `` situation `` -- jax : right . kate : and i ca n't go into the details -- jax , i know . it 's absurd that i 'm -- i 'm making myself complicit in god knows what by keeping sonny 's secrets . it -- jax : okay , please do n't take this the wrong way , but sonny does that with all his women . kate : i 'm not one of sonny 's `` women . `` jax : of course . yeah . kate : yeah , i 'm kate howard , i actually have a life and a career -- which i fully intend to revive , which is why i 'm soliciting you -- which is why i -- i really should n't be telling you any of this . jax : oh , no , no , please , please . you can tell me anything you want , because i really would appreciate the distraction . kate : okay , then -- so we 're in the same boat , because i could use the distraction , too , to keep my mind off of sonny 's `` event . `` and , anyway , um , why do n't you tell me about surfing . jax : surfing ? kate : yeah . jax : well , okay , that 's one of my favorite things to do . first , you have to be a go swimmer , which i do n't -- actually , i recall you 're not that good at it , are you ? kate : uh -- it 's one of those things i never got around to learning . jax : yeah . carly -- she 's a good swimmer . she grew up in florida and spent the summers on the beaches . um -- she never surfed , but we went surfing on our honeymoon for the first time -- really fun . kate : did something -- did something happen with you and carly ? look , you just told me i could tell you anything , and i assure you it goes both ways . [ jax sighs ] jax : i want to have a baby , and i just found out tonight that it might never happen . [ scene_break ] lulu : carly ? carly : hold on . yeah , she just walked in . okay , bye . logan had me worried sick about you . lulu : when did you see logan ? carly : a few minutes ago . he was worried because you did n't answer your phone all night . lulu : well , there was n't much cell reception at the cabin . carly : `` the cabin `` ? lulu : it 's a long story . [ lulu scoffs ] lulu : i hitched a ride with johnny ; we ended up in the mountains . carly : johnny zacchara is dangerous . why would you get in the car with him again ? lulu : save the lecture -- i know , it was stupid . carly : did he hurt you ? lulu : no -- his father 's men could 've been a little gentler when dragging me back to the creepy house . carly : anthony zacchara 's men grabbed you ? lulu : it was just so that johnny would come home . once he did , they let me go . carly : did you see his father there ? lulu : i did n't have time to see much of anything -- johnny was too busy kicking me off the property . but from what i could see , there was a lot of weird stuff going on over there . [ scene_break ] anthony : get out ! trevor : anthony ? what is the problem ? anthony : he 's gone . trevor : who ? anthony : johnny -- they took him again . i want my son . what the hell have y my son ? where is he ? johnny : i 'm right here . anthony : you 're back . johnny : do you want something ? anthony : you have to be more careful , johnny . you 're all i have left of her . she loved roses -- white , pink -- but red -- red were here favorites -- deep red like blood . trevor : john , you need to sit with him for a while , it calms him down . johnny : you 're thinking if he gets upset again , it might ruin your plans . trevor : no , no , no , no . if your father gets upset , people tend to die . [ scene_break ] jason : okay , i picked up trevor just like you asked . i had him waiting here , ric shows up , of course -- sonny : we got -- we got a bigger problem than ric . zacchara is -- is crazy . i 'm -- i 'm talking out of his mind , and i 'm not just talking irrational . he -- he is insane . one minute he 's talking about roses , the next minute he 's talking about coming after my family . jason : are you sure it was n't an act ? sonny : no , no , no , no , it 's real . trevor has not wanted me to -- to see him because he does n't want the truth to come out . okay , i just thought that trevor was a mouthpiece , but he -- he 's -- he 's been running zacchara 's organization in his name . the real enemy here is trevor lansing . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's pretty obvious you 're not over robin yet , and somehow i seriously doubt she found a way to get over you . if the love is still there , why not try to work things out ? patrick : i will always love robin and want the best for her . but i 'm not it . elizabeth : how do you know ? patrick : because she told me in no uncertain terms that she wants a family , and i do n't . elizabeth : oh . is the thought of committing to one person for the rest of your life really that scary ? patrick : surprisingly , commitment is not the problem . robin and i were together for a year and a half . if this whole baby thing did n't happen , we 'd still be together . we broke up because we have fundamentally different views of what we want out of life . now , if i was to have a baby with her to try and hold on to a relationship , that would n't be fair to anyone , most of all the child . elizabeth , i just -- i do n't think i 'm father material . elizabeth : that 's what most men say until the moment they hold their first child . patrick : i like my life the way it is . do i wish robin was in it ? absolutely . but realistically , i know that that ca n't happen . so i have to try and find a way to accept that i can love someone and want to be with them , but for whatever reason , we ca n't share a life together . elizabeth : if you figure out how to make peace with that , will you let me know ? [ scene_break ] carly : okay , i want you to tell me everything , starting with what you were doing with johnny up in the mountains . lulu : a lot has happened since we last talked -- not johnny , but with logan , too . carly : so he was n't just running his mouth about you forgiving him , you -- he was n't making that up ? lulu : yeah , we agreed to try again . carly : why ? lulu : because i made a deal with scott baldwin . um , he said that he would drop the charges against my dad and give guardianship of my mom back over to nikolas if i gave logan a second chance . carly : that 's not a deal , lulu , that 's blackmail . lulu : you sound exactly like my dad . he thinks that scott 's really using me , and this is all about him trying to get back at my dad . carly : i ca n't believe i 'm going to side with your father , but no one knows scott better than your father , and if luke thinks that he has some kind of an agenda he probably does . lulu : scott feels bad about bailing on logan , and he 's trying to score points any way that he can . carly : because scott was a deadbeat dad does n't mean it 's up to you to fix it . lulu : the truth is i 've been looking for an excuse to try again with logan . carly : then what were you doing with johnny up at the cabin ? lulu : ugh . i was trying to explain to my dad why i care about logan , he basically made me fee a fool . so i started second - guessing myself , and the more i tried to make sense of it , the more confused i got , so i took off , and i ran into johnny . carly : you 're second - guessing yourself because you know that logan is a lying , unfaithful jerk , and if you get back together with him , he is just going to break your heart again . lulu : you do n't know logan like i do . carly : i know when he does n't get what he wants , he loses it , just like he did with me today . lulu : what are you talking about ? carly : he busted in my house looking for you , and when i told him to get out , he grabbed me . i 'm telling you , the sooner you get rid of this guy , the happier you will be . [ scene_break ] trevor : john -- john , do you want to destroy everything that your father 's built up by allowing sonny corinthos to see him like this ? johnny : it 's his to destroy , remember that . trevor : no , john , it 's going to be `` yours `` one day . so now i got to clean it up for both of you , so , please , a little help would be nice . no more visits to lulu spencer . johnny : you can relax . i made sure lulu will never want to see me again . trevor : and that 's a wise choice . the last thing you want your father to find out is why you have been taking off . johnny : lulu 's name better not come up anywhere near my father . trevor : johnny , johnny . you want lulu to be safe ? stay home . do n't make your father come looking for you . [ scene_break ] sonny : from what i hear , zacchara 's always been a crazy , ruthless bastard , okay , who 's been hanging on by a thread . if his wife was murdered , that could 've been enough to make him snap . jason : and when he did , trevor was there to pick up the pieces . sonny : right , and trevor , you know , got him out of the city , left him in crimson pointe , had somebody watching him 24 hours . hey , you know what ? if nobody knows that zacchara 's crazy , then trevor can run things in his name . jason : and he has complete deniability . sonny : it 's the perfect -- it 's the perfect setup . trevor can call the shots , and , you know , zacchara can take blame for the fallout . jason : oh , man , you said anthony made some threats . what -- what ? sonny : he 's -- he 's totally and criminally insane , and there 's no doubt in my mind that if he got loose , he would make good on his promise and come after my family . [ scene_break ] logan : i 'm glad you called . lulu : sorry , i did n't mean to take off without telling you . logan : what 's wrong ? did i do something to upset you ? lulu : i -- no , i just -- needed time to think . i have so many voices in my head , i do n't know which one is mine anymore . logan : let me guess -- they 're all saying `` get rid of logan . `` lulu : no , not all of them . logan : so where were you ? lulu : i -- um -- went up to the mountains for the night , and then when i came back , i stopped by carly 's , and she said stuff got kind of ugly with the two of you ? logan : yeah , they did . i realized i do n't -- um -- i do n't think we 're going to work after all . [ scene_break ] sonny : focus is on trevor lansing . if you see johnny zacchara around town , you leave him alone . milo : what if he 's with lulu ? sonny : then you take her home . i do n't want you to lay a hand on johnny zacchara . you understand what i 'm saying ? milo : yes , i do , mr. c . sonny : you got your tail -- the tail on trevor ? max : they 've been on him all week . sonny : okay , i want you to find him , bring him here . okay ? max : sure , boss . anything -- anything else ? sonny : yeah , i want you to put some more guards on -- on carly and the boys . max : jax already has around - the - clock -- sonny : i do n't care what jax wants . zacchara 's threatening them . for all i know , he put a hit out on michael and morgan , and leticia got killed instead . i ca n't take any more chances . max : of course not . uh -- just so you know , mrs. c is n't going to like this very much . sonny : you know what , max ? she can get in my face all she wants . but at least i know she 's alive . [ scene_break ] carly : oh , jason , thank got you 're here . i have so much to tell you , starting with lulu -- you 'll never believe what she did this time . jason : no , no , no , no , you need to -- you need to let me go first , it 's important . i checked on michael and morgan , and they 're -- they 're fine . carly : why would n't they be fine ? jason : because sonny met with anthony zacchara today . carly : did he see lulu there ? because she was -- jason : no -- please , carly , you need to listen to me . sonny says that anthony is crazy , and i 'm -- i 'm talking totally insane . he threatened to kill michael and morgan . carly : you 're not going to let that happen . jason : no , zacchara is basically a prisoner in his own home , there 's guards on him 24/7 , he has no real power anymore . carly : then why are you scaring me like this ? jasonl because sonny says if this guy got loose , might make good on his word . you 're -- you 're their mother , you need to know the danger exists . carly : what are you going to do about this ? jason : i -- it 's complicated . sonny says the place is like a fortress , it would be really hard to get to zacchara , and nobody knows the guy 's crazy -- trevor 's been covering for him for years . so it would look like that sonny went in , killed his rival in his own home without being provoked . carly : and then someone would turn around and do that to sonny . jason : right . i mean , it 's just -- it 's just going to take time to deal with zacchara . i mean , that does n't mean you and the boys need to change how you live . but you -- you need to be careful this time . carly : if that son of a bitch comes near my kids , i 'll kill him myself . jason : i 'm -- i 'm going to take care of it . not as soon as i would like , but i will . carly : i want you to tell me everything that 's happened . start from the beginning so i can wrap my brain around this , jason . jason : it 's just business . most of it 's business -- carly : if anthony zacchara is trying to kill my kids , then i get to know why . [ scene_break ] jax : you know , i was never in a hurry to have kids . i always thought that it would just happen one day . kate : hmm . jax : a few years ago , i was involved with a surrogacy -- that did n't turn out too well . then i married carly . and i have two great stepsons , but i would like another child -- preferably a girl . but i 'm not picky , you know . kate : and carly disagrees ? jax : she 's afraid that she 'll have difficulty getting pregnant , which will then put a strain on our marriage . kate : well , she has a point . i 've known a few marriages who have broken up over fertility issues . jax : really ? kate : ironically , usually it 's -- it 's the woman who wants to do it because , you know , she has a career , she feels like her time is running out , and so they get on the fertility bandwagon and -- they got the shots and the temperature testing , and , sadly , even sometimes when there is a baby , it 's too late , the marriage is already falling apart . jax : right , so you 're saying i should let it go ? kate : what i 'm saying is that my advice and a $ 1.70 will get you a cup of coffee . jax : no , no , come on , i still want to hear it . kate : jax , i do n't like carly very much , but that does n't mean that i 'm oblivious to her strengths . i think in time that carly will realize that having a baby with her husband is worth the emotional upheaval -- after all , carly does seem to thrive on emotional upheaval . jax : so you 're saying i should just wait her out ? kate : i think that carly will realize that she does want to have a baby with you , i think you just need to give her some time to realize it . [ scene_break ] patrick : one more question . is that okay ? elizabeth : ask away . patrick : if you had to do it all over again , would you make it work with lucky ? or would you have let of it sooner ? elizabeth : uh -- as much as i care about lucky , i should 've never remarried him . patrick : why did you ? elizabeth : he checked himself into rehab , he got clean so he could get his family back -- i wanted to support him . patrick : yeah . elizabeth : and i wanted our family and our love to come back , too . but i remarried him even though my feelings had changed , and if i 'd been honest from the start , i could 've saved us both a lot of pain . patrick : so you think a clean break is best ? elizabeth : i ca n't speak for anyone else . i was n't in love with lucky ; you ca n't say that about robin . and until you can , i do n't think you 'll ever be able to make a clean break . patrick : can you tell me when mr. westmoreland 's labs are back , please ? elizabeth : yes . patrick : thank you . robin : i 'm sure patrick just gave you an earful of my plans to have a baby , but do n't worry . lucky wo n't be making a contribution -- he turned me down . go ahead , say it . i mean , i -- i asked the man who is technically still your husband to be the father of my child . you have every right to tell me how you feel about that -- and , believe me , ca n't be any worse than what carly said when i asked jax . elizabeth : you asked jax ? robin : and leo . but i 'm 0 - 3 for potential fathers -- patrick will be happy to hear that . i know how that must sound . it 's really not that way . see , i made a list of men , mainly friends , who had qualities that i would like to pass on to a child . elizabeth : you do n't have to explain . robin : seems like that 's all i 've been doing lately . i keep having to defend why i want to have a child and raise it on my own . elizabeth : okay , not that my opinion matters , but if you want to have a baby , i think you should . robin : thank you . elizabeth : one word of advice -- use a sperm bank , not a friend . robin : why ? elizabeth : even with the best of intentions , i seriously doubt any guy on your list will be able to walk away from his own child once it 's born . [ scene_break ] lulu : you want to break up with me when we 're technically not together ? logan : all i want is for you to be happy . there 's not a chance of that happening with your family , your friends , and everyone else constantly coming down on you for being with me . lulu : since when do you care what people think ? logan : i 'm sorry , okay ? i just do n't want to set myself up to be angry all the time . and i definitely do n't want to go off on somebody else like i did with carly today . lulu : what was that about anyway ? logan : i just -- she told me to stay away from you . lulu : well , that 's not carly 's call to make . logan : well , i still should n't have grabbed her . i mean , that 's proof that this is a bad idea . you would not even be here standing , talking to me right now if baldwin had n't scammed you into giving me a second chance . lulu : i know what i 'm doing . logan : look , you were trying to take care of your parents . i do n't blame you for that . but , lulu , baldwin signed the papers . you 're not obligated to him , me , or anybody else . you 're free to be with whoever you want . [ scene_break ] handler : texting your girlfriend ? johnny : you should n't have brought lulu here . handler : yeah ? well , you should n't have ran off . but i guess we know where to find you when you do . [ scene_break ] carly : okay , listen to me . lulu was here . she took off with johnny zacchara again , and then zacchara 's men picked her up . she was in the zacchara house . jason : yeah , as soon as sonny got there , he had her sent home . carly : i do n't understand . if anthony 's not in charge , how can he have his men pick her up ? jason : okay , trevor lansing is running the zacchara organization . he can only do that by hiding the fact that anthony is absolutely crazy . carly : so trevor had lulu picked up ? jason : right , so johnny would come back home . anthony is obsessed with his son , and you know what ? trevor uses johnny to keep anthony calm and manageable . carly : so all those trips to port charles was just so johnny could get away from his crazy father ? jason : right . and if anything happens to johnny , trevor loses all control over anthony . carly : which explains why trevor was so weirdly overprotective of johnny , telling me to keep lulu away from him . huh . you know , he made johnny out to be the crazy one , when anthony 's the nut job , and johnny 's basically in the unfortunate position of being a bargaining chip . jason : yeah , pretty much . carly : well , it 's not like johnny 's completely normal . i mean , he 's a little off . why would n't he be ? you know , he 's the son of a mob boss , been around violence his whole life . you sure michael and morgan are okay ? jason : well , i can check with the guards again if you want . carly : no , no , i 'm just thinking how johnny is basically a hostage for his father . i do n't want that to happen to michael and morgan . [ scene_break ] trevor : you son of -- this is the last time that i get picked up by your men . sonny : you just might want to get your own bodyguards then , right ? but that might send out a message that you 're not just anthony zacchara 's mouthpiece . and that would ruin the arrangement you 've worked so hard to keep quiet . you guys go ahead and go , because i got some business to take care of . it 's a nice little setup you got going there , trevor . [ door closes ] sonny : zacchara 's out of his mind , so you step in and run his organization . you get all the power , none of the blame , and i 'm sure you found a way to make him think that he 's calling the shots . every threat you make , every hit that you order , he thinks it 's coming from him , but i sure as hell know better . and i want you to know that that threat -- for me to step aside , unless my family 's going to pay ? that came from you . now , i want to give you my answer . [ next_on ] jason : sonny knows that trevor 's running the organization . it 's possible trevor might back off . sonny : port charles is mine . trevor : what makes you think you have a choice ? lucky : welcome home .

[ scene_break ] sonny : senor verde made the first mistake of backing anthony zacchara . mo : where did you hear that rumor ? sonny : i know everything that happens in my territory ! i know anthony ordered the strike that took out your shipments . senor verde was the informant . he was planning to run product through anthony , which you all know about and accepted . now anthony was trying to move things through me , but he 's too old and weak . so it left him out in the cold . now i 'm starting to rethink my association with all of you . man : with all due respect , you 've been misinformed . our loyalties are with you , mr. corinthos . sonny : but the thing is , i have n't seen proof of that . man : the proof is in our wallets . it 's been a profitable partnership . i think i can speak for all of us when i say that i hope to continue doing business with you for many years to come . sonny : then i trust that you will treat my enemies as your own . man : not to worry . we 'll handle it . sonny : i 'm glad we have this understanding . my people will be in touch . shall we , darling ? claudia : yes .

[ spinelli exhales ] dominic : whoa , whoa , hold on . what about sonny 's transporters ? spinelli : i apologize , but i 'm overdue to save the world . dominic : could you be more specific ? spinelli : yes , i volunteered for the `` i participate `` campaign . it 's a worthy cause and it 's fun and sociable . so this evening , i shall have the charitable endeavor of providing cyber support to a community effort to re - green our fair city . so i must ask you to take your leave . stone cold does not allow unattended guests .

[ scene_break ] carly : if i go up against brenda , i lose jax for sure . jason : why do you say that ? carly : because she 's the one who got away . jason : jax and brenda broke it off , right ? carly : because i told jax that i saw her kissing sonny the night before their wedding . yeah , he was hurt , he was devastated , but he never stopped loving her . jason : yeah , look . jax and brenda might have a history together , but you guys have josslyn . that 's way more important than anything jax has with brenda . carly : men like jax , they do n't want a strong woman who can stand on her own 2 feet . they want a delicate flower , you know , some little thing that needs rescuing . jason : yeah ? then jax is stupid , and he deserves to lose you . carly : i do n't wan na lose him . help me make him jealous . jason : no , carly . no . carly : come on , jason . look , jax knows that when i get upset and i think my life is falling apart , that i act out , that i do crazy things . jason : yeah , then why does it always have to come down to a crazy plan ? brenda is not worth it . stop giving her more power than she deserves .

[ knock on door ] off . griffin : we 're looking for trey mitchell , also known as joseph scully iii . trey : did you guys find my father ? off . griffin : not yet , but we have units covering the area . off . luck : we need to ask you a few questions . trey : i already gave my statement to detective falconeri . off . luck : he 's not here at the moment . need you to take us through everything your father said . might give us an idea where he was headed . trey : yeah , if it 'll help . come on in . michael : dad , what are you doing here ? sonny : i was on my way home . i saw the cop car . what 's going on ? michael : joe scully was here . jason : scully ! drop the gun . joe jr. : [ grunts , gasping ] jason : bernie . bernie : jason -- jason : no , no , do n't talk . bernie : no , listen . you -- you need to know . there 's something i need to tell you . jason : okay , do n't worry about that right now . i can take care of scully . bernie : no , it 's not him . i need to tell you -- i need to tell you about the money . jason : what ? [ gunshot ] [ gate creaks ] jason : [ grunting , gasping ] luke : so we run this dna profile . we can prove that this uninvited guest is not your late husband . anna : you honestly think someone would have gone to the trouble of having his entire face reconstructed just to manipulate me ? luke : well , you believed it when jonathan paget showed up after reconstructing his face because he was afraid somebody was trying to kill him . look , anna , this guy can duplicate duke 's face . he ca n't duplicate his dna . anna : that sample of hair is n't gon na give you anything . luke : oh , he wears a rug . i should have known . anna : no , he does n't . luke : well , then , what 's the problem ? anna : duke does n't have any dna on record . so that sample 's not gon na tell you whether it is or is n't him . luke : [ sighs ] monica : oh , tracy . how are you this lovely evening ? tracy : why are you nauseatingly chipper ? monica : well , you can congratulate me . i am a grandmother again . jason and sam are back together , and the baby is alive and well . sam : hey , i -- hi . mcbain : hi . sam : uh , i did n't expect to see you here . i thought jason forgot his key . mcbain : i did n't expect to find you here , either . duke : you should n't have interfered . dante : dr. v says any time you get pregnant , you 're gon na have a miscarriage ? lulu : i ca n't carry past the second trimester . dante : why did n't she tell us this before ? lulu : 'cause i guess it 's not something that you can find in a regular exam , and she did some tests , including an mri , and ... that 's when she saw what was wrong . dante : so when we thought you were -- you were pregnant before ... ? lulu : i might have been and just had a really , really early miscarriage . dante : all right . so what do we do now ? how do we fix this ? lulu : dr. v says that it 's not treatable . dante : what do you mean ? so , like , i mean , if you wanted to , they could n't have , like , a surgery to help it or anything ? lulu : i 'm sorry . dante : why ? do n't apologize . lulu : i think ... this is my fault . monica : does this look small to you ? i mean , it says 6 to 9 months . tracy : it looks fine . you , on the other hand , look absolutely ridiculous . the role of doting grandmother does not suit you in the slightest . monica : well , too bad . tracy : and not to be indelicate . the baby is n't jason 's . it 's franco 's . monica : do n't go there , tracy . tracy : i certainly understand jason accepting the baby . he clearly has no problem with other men 's babies . look what happened with michael . but i do n't know why the rest of us have to accept franco 's baby as a quartermaine . monica : because he is a quartermaine , tracy . he is alan 's son , just like jason and a.j . tracy : lucky alan . a.j . and jason were disappointing enough . at least he did n't live long enough to find out about franco . tracy : ooh . be careful , tracy . your greed is showing . you 're worried about another potential heir . tracy : daddy 's always had a soft spot -- or should i say blind spot -- for quartermaine babies . monica : especially when they 're named after him . tracy : no . they 're naming the baby edward ? oh , that has to be sam . she 's always been a gold digger . jason would n't care . monica : [ laughs ] well , first of all , tracy , you named your firstborn after edward . tracy : with good reason . i 'm his daughter , not a career criminal who turned his back on this family years ago and has done nothing but spill blood all over the quartermaine name . monica : okay , enough of the dramatics . the baby 's name is daniel edward . tracy : so why did n't you say that in the first place ? monica : and speaking of blood , when did you decide to play doctor ? tracy : what ? monica : you were in my medical bag , and you certainly did n't put it back the way you found it . tracy : oh . did n't i tell you ? i , uh ... pulled a bullet out of joseph 's shoulder a few weeks ago . monica : wha ? duke : goodbye , mr. morgan . joe jr. : [ grunts , gasps ] duke : oh , scully , scully , scully . what in the world am i going to do with you ? luke : what was i thinking ? duke died before dna profiling . anna : he did n't die . he 's alive , and you yanked his hair out for nothing . luke : well , i got to say , the man 's pain tolerance is that of a gnat . anna : [ scoffs ] my point is that you really need to give up this idea that you 're gon na prove duke is an imposter . luke : not necessarily . sam : jason ... let me know that he really loves this baby , and he wants to be his father . so when he asked me to come home with him that day , i -- i said yes . we belong together . we are a family . mcbain : i 'm happy for you . sam : you are a really good man , john . you helped my son and i through everything . i do n't want to leave things unresolved between us . i mean , i know you and i , we have -- mcbain : we do n't need to talk about you and i . sam : yes , i think we do . duke : you failed to kill kristina . to redeem you , i gave you this job . you could n't even dispatch a lowly accountant . joe jr. : i 'm sorry . duke : yeah . no murder is perfect , scully . there 's always evidence . it always leaves a trail . that 's why i delegate . well , you let me down . my hands are dirty . they might as well get dirtier . [ cell phone beeps ] michael : scully threatened to take starr as a hostage . sonny : was that punk trying to protect him ? starr : no , no , no , he convinced his dad not to take me . [ cell phone rings ] sonny : it 's bernie . he 's been trying to get ahold of me . i got to get this . bernie , what 's up ? bernie : pier 52 . come now . sonny : what 's wrong , bernie ? bernie : jason . dante : what do you mean ? have a glade sense & spray , dante : what do you mean ? how could you think this condition is your fault ? [ door opens ] dr. v : how are you doing ? i thought you might want a little time alone . dante : thank you . dr. v : i 'm so sorry . i know that you both were looking forward to conceiving . if you have any questions , i 'm more than happy to answer them . lulu : uh , i think we 're okay . dante : well , actually , we do . well , i think you should just tell her what you told me . lulu : it 's not a big deal . it 's nothing . dr. v : lulu , i assure you , you ca n't shock me . if something 's bothering you , feel free to ask me . maybe i can help . lulu : no , i do n't think so . dante : she thinks this condition is -- is her fault . dr. v : why would you think that ? lulu : um , maybe you missed it in my file . when i was a teenager , i had an abortion . sonny : bernie , talk to me about jason . what 's wrong , bernie ? damn it . michael : dad , what 's going on ? what about jason ? sonny : bernie can barely get a word out . off . griffin : we got shots fired at pier 52 and someone matching scully 's description . let 's go . sonny : he 's calling from pier 52 . michael : i 'm going with you . sonny : no , you 're not . michael : if jason 's in trouble , i should be there . sonny : and if he 's in trouble , he 's gon na handle it . i do n't want you in the middle of another shootout . michael : dad , i can take care of myself . sonny : stay right here ! starr : what are you doing ? michael : my dad 's not going alone . starr : no ! trey : i 'm going with you . the cops said that there was gunfire . my dad might have been shot . michael : and he deserved it . starr : forget it ! you 're both staying here . monica : what makes you think you can perform guerilla surgery without anesthetic , without antibiotics ? well , i guess i could be comforted in the fact that he most likely died a slow and painful death due to septicemia . tracy : oh , so much for your hippocratic oath . monica : this is not a house for hunted criminals , tracy ! tracy : i did n't invite him over here . he showed up with a gunshot wound , desperate , claiming that sonny corinthos had shot him . what was i supposed to do ? turn him away ? monica : in a word , yes . tracy : well , i did n't have to . dante came knocking , and he managed to elaborate on some key missing details of joseph 's story . monica : how bad ? tracy : well , apparently , joseph kidnapped sonny 's daughter with the intention of killing her . when i found that out , i turned him in . monica : well , then why is he still at large ? tracy : because by the time i pointed dante in joseph 's direction , he 'd already disappeared . monica : [ scoffs ] how convenient . tracy : no , no , no , no . it 's absolutely the truth . i want him caught . monica : well , you may have turned him in to the cops ... but have you really turned your back on him , tracy ? duke : i thought you 'd be useful to me . but you 're worthless . joe jr. : please . do n't do this . duke : you 've left me no choice . bernie : [ groans ] duke : hey . luke : lavery drank from this glass , did n't he . anna : i do n't -- i -- what are you planning on doing ? i told you there 's no dna on him . luke : no , but there are fingerprints . am i wrong in assuming his fingerprints are on file at the pcpd ? anna : no , i arrested him . luke : well , love means never having to say miranda . have you got a fingerprint kit handy ? anna : yes . luke : well , let 's get it . the sooner we compare these prints to the ones in the database ... the sooner we can find out if he 's telling the truth . anna : no . luke : no ? why not ? you 're afraid ... to find out that this guy calling himself lavery is a liar . duke : still alive . you had one job to do . you want something done right , you got to do it yourself . [ gunshot ] [ siren wails in the distance ] sam : something almost happened between us . we ca n't pretend that it did n't . mcbain : i never wanted to complicate your life . sam : well , it 's too late . what happened between us , those were real feelings . and we have to deal with them . mcbain : how do we do that ? hmm , it says here that cheerios helps lower cholesterol dr. v : i want to be very clear -- there is no correlation between your bicornuate uterus and the fact that you terminated a pregnancy . lulu : are you sure ? dr. v : what you have is a genetic condition , something that you were born with , not unlike the color of your hair . there is nothing that you did to cause this . it is a congenital uterine malformation , leaving your uterus heart - shaped . some of these are minor forms . yours is just more severe . lulu : so if i had n't , um ... had the abortion -- dr. v : if you had not terminated that pregnancy , it would have resulted in a miscarriage . lulu : so why do i have this ? because i -- i do n't think that it 's inherited . i have not heard of any women on either side of my family having this problem . dr. v : i 'm afraid there 's no real answer . dante : it 's nothing -- it 's nothing from you . it 's just something that happens . dr. v : i 'm sure this has been horribly disappointing , but i encourage you to get a second opinion to confirm my diagnosis . lulu : is there a chance that you could be wrong ? dr. v : i am certain that i 'm not , but it may help you to feel like you 've explored all avenues . lulu : it does n't matter . i mean , what 's the point ? i 'm never gon na have a baby . dr. v : i 'm so sorry i had to deliver this news , and if you have any more questions , my door is always open . in the meantime , i do recommend that you go back on birth control , just so that you can save yourself any more unnecessary pain . lulu : okay . dr. v : i 'll be right back with your prescription . [ door closes ] dante : see ? the doctor said it herself , right ? there 's nothing you did to cause this . lulu : yeah , it just happened . i 'm sorry , baby . oh , i 'm so sorry . lulu : [ crying ] michael : starr , i 'm going . starr : the cops said that there were people shooting . you do n't want to get caught in the crossfire . michael : i 'll take my chances . starr : that 's exactly what your father does n't want ! trey : my dad 's already been shot once , okay ? starr : i ca n't take it if something happens to either of you , okay ? ! trey : nothing is gon na happen ! michael : we 're not targets . starr : cole and hope were n't targets , either ! they were in the wrong place at the wrong time , and look at what happened to them ! i ca n't go through that again ! i ca n't take it if i lose one more person that i care about ! tracy : joseph , joseph , where are you ? [ knock on door ] tracy : [ gasps ] is somebody there ? [ gasps ] oh ! joe jr. : [ grunts ] anna : i do n't need to compare those fingerprints to the ones in the database . i know that man is duke . luke : 100 % sure . absolutely sure . okay . when you find out that this son of a bitch is a liar -- anna : he 's not lying ! luke : well , then prove it ! if i 'm wrong , i 'm wrong . anna , you 're so smart , you 're so capable . a - and you 're willing to live in denial ? or in some fantasy that this guy is who he says he is without even checking it out ? i have feelings for you -- real , strong , important feelings . all i 'm asking is that you do n't take this at face value . so just , please ... run the fingerprints . [ knock on door ] sam : i know we had this unexplained connection , but ... whatever chance we had of taking our feelings to the next level , that 's -- that 's over . mcbain : i know . sam : your friendship means a lot to me , john -- more than i can say . mcbain : you want to be , uh , friends ? sam : i want you in my life . you helped deliver my son . and when i thought he was gone , you helped me through that . mcbain : you helped me as much as i helped you , sam . sam : will you please just -- will you let me thank you ? please ? jason told me that you played a huge part ... in finding danny . you helped prove that he was still alive . mcbain : just wanted you to be happy . sam : do you want to hold him ? mcbain : oh , i do n't know . sam : just come here . come on . danny ... ahh ! ... meet mommy 's friend . mcbain : hi . sam : look -- i think he remembers you . mcbain : oh , i doubt that . hey , sweet boy . hey . sam : i do n't . i think you look really good with a baby in your arms . off . griffin : what 's the e.t.a . on an ambulance ? we got a gsw . he 's not gon na last much longer . off . luck : you ca n't be here ! this is a crime scene ! sonny : bernie ! off . griffin : this is an emergency . bernie : mr. corinthos . sonny : how you doing ? bernie : i 'm sorry . sonny : no , do n't worry about that now . what happened ? bernie : jason 's shot . sonny : he was hit ? bernie : yeah . sonny : where is he now ? bernie : the harbor . sonny : he 's in the water . bernie : yeah . sonny : get a doctor to help him ! off . luck : hey , get back ! you 're contaminating a crime scene ! dante : hey . hey , we 're gon na get through this , okay ? lulu : i know , i know , i know . [ sniffles ] i just really wanted a baby . oh . i guess i just never realized how much until ... dante : yeah , i know . me too . lulu : i mean , we would go to bed talking about having a kid every night . dante : i used to , uh ... have a dream about this , like ... sweetest little girl , you know , with like a bun , pigtails . lulu : how sweet . dante : well , we 'd , uh ... watch football together on sunday afternoons , and , uh ... scream at the tv wearing our jets jerseys . lulu : that 's funny , 'cause i would imagine having a little dark - haired boy getting food all over his buffalo bills onesie . dante : buffalo bills . that would make , uh ... playoff time really interesting . lulu : [ chuckles ] but now it 's never gon na happen . dante : hey . we 've got each other . okay ? and we 're gon na be fine . as long as we have each other . lulu : okay . tracy : i 'm calling the police . joe jr. : no , you ca n't ! tracy : oh , do n't worry . they 're gon na take you to the hospital before they take you downtown to book you . joe jr. : it 's too late for hospitals . tracy : [ laughs ] is that a plea for sympathy ? joe jr. : it 's the truth . bastard who did this ... he knew what he was doing . and it 's funny . i was always scared of getting shot , scared of dying . sonny used to ... used to call me a coward . made me crazy . deep down , i -- i was afraid that he was right . but now that it 's happened ... i 'm not afraid anymore ... not for me , anyway . tracy : should i be afraid ? did the person who shot you follow you to my house ? joe jr. : no , no , baby , do n't . no one followed me . i just ... i need you ... one last favor -- call my son . please ? tracy : and why should i do anything for you ? joe jr. : i saved your life . michael : straight to voicemail . starr : look , i 'm sure he 's gon na be okay . michael : you do n't know that , and neither do i . starr : you 're angry with me . michael : i 'm worried . my dad 's business is violent , and jason 's an enforcer . they 're both targets . look , i 'm sorry , all right ? you ca n't understand this business unless you grew up in it . starr : michael , what would you even do if you were there ? michael : i do n't know . something . the only reason i 'm here is ... [ sighs ] starr : thank you . thank you for staying . duke : am i interrupting ? luke : yes . anna : no . come in . duke : i 'm sorry our anniversary celebration got cut short . luke : mm . i 'm afraid that 's my fault . duke : well , now that i 've set up my own permanent home here in port charles , i thought we could pick up where we left off . luke : and where was that , exactly ? duke : well , i was hoping to take you away from here and invite you to my home . that is , of course , unless you 're still wrapped up in spencer 's theories of my being a random stranger with the face of your ... late husband . luke : not random . that much we 've established . anna : we are still trying to clear up the question of your identity . duke : please do n't tell me you have the dna lab on speed dial . luke : no , the dna lab can take the night off . apparently , i plucked your hair for nothing . duke : oh . finally dawned on you that you do n't have my dna on file . luke : that 's right . so we 're going old school -- fingerprints . nice and low- tech . we can all do it from here , if anna agrees . duke : do you really want to waste what 's left of our anniversary including his paranoia ? mcbain : i think he wants to go back to his mom . come on , buddy . sam : sorry . i did n't even ask . how are things going with liam ? mcbain : uh ... yeah , i was , uh ... supposed to hear about , uh ... the hearing for my petition for visitation . it was rescheduled , so , um ... until they do , the , uh -- the effects of the restraining order , under penalty of jail time , are still in effect . sam : have you contacted natalie directly ? mcbain : [ chuckles ] mcbain : yeah , about a thousand times . you know , according to her , it 's ... it 's all in that letter , you know ? i do n't have enough to offer her -- her or liam . sam : not enough to offer ? mcbain : high - risk job . i do n't ... have enough financial means to provide a lifestyle they 've become accustomed to . i guess i do n't play well with others , according to natalie . i was never meant to have a family . sam : do n't believe her . mcbain : i 'm not gon na give up on liam . i do n't care if she hires all the lawyers in pennsylvania . i 'm gon na fight till i get my son back . sam : good . and when you get your day in court , you 're gon na be able to prove that you 're a good father . mcbain : in the meantime , i have no contact with liam . sam : now that i 've got my son back , i could not imagine being separated from him . mcbain : it 's killing me to be away from my boy . but if that 's what it takes to win out in the end ... i 'll just have to stay away . sam : will you be staying in port charles ? mcbain : if i did , would that be a problem for you ? sonny : any sign of him ? ! off . luck : nothing so far . off . griffin : we radioed for doctors . they 're on their way . sonny : all right . ca n't wait . off . luck : you 're gon na get sucked under , if you do n't freeze first . sonny : i got to find him ! off . griffin : it 's not gon na help him if we have to search for you , too . sonny : i got to find him ! dante : all right , keep me posted . lulu : work ? dante : yeah , there 's something going on down at the pier . they want all available units . lulu : get on over there . dante : i 'm not leaving you here . lulu : i 'll be fine . dante : maybe i wo n't be . lulu : we 're not gon na solve anything tonight . what am i saying ? there 's not even anything to solve ? it is what it is . we 're not gon na have a baby . dante : i 'm sorry . lulu : oh , i feel like i 've failed you . dante : no , stop . you are perfect . lulu : obviously not . dante : yes , listen -- you ... are perfect to me . lulu : i love you . dante : good . lulu : and i will lean on you a lot , so you will get sick of me . dante : that 's impossible . lulu : i 'm fine . i really am . dante : okay , well , great . you 're not getting rid of me . okay ? they said the situation 's under control . off . griffin : and down . are we clear ? stay out of the water . do n't worry ! if he 's in there , we 'll find him ! sonny : bernie . bernie : [ groans ] sonny : how you doing ? bernie : i -- i need to tell you something . sonny : who did this to you ? who shot you ? was it scully ? bernie : yeah , he did , but ... sonny : but what ? bernie . but what ? he 's crashing ! grab that ! sonny : bernie ! bernie ! bernie ! duke : i think you 're grasping at straws . i think you just want anna for yourself . luke : yes , i do . but i also care enough for her not to want to see her hurt . so what do you say ? are we gon na find out the truth ? anna : i believe you . i do . my heart and my mind is telling me that ... you 're duke . but i think we need to just get past this , you know ? so we can move on . it 's not gon na take long . and it 'll get him out of your hair , so to speak . sonny : bernie , bernie . you said something about scully . if there 's something you can ... i 'm sorry , man . he 's gone . sonny : you 're gon na pay , joe . whatever it takes , you 're gon na pay . joe jr. : [ grunting ] you remember the pathogen ? tracy : you mean when jerry jacks poisoned the town through the water supply ? yeah , it rings a bell . joe jr. : did n't you ever wonder why you did n't get sick ? tracy : i left that for the doctors to figure out . they took enough blood and ran enough tests . joe jr. : i gave you the antitoxin . bottled water . remember ? you need to stay hydrated . drink this . tracy : that 's okay . i -- joe jr. : no arguments . drink it . it 'll be good for you . tracy : oh , my god . that was the antitoxin ? but wait a minute . how did you get it ? did you know ? did you know what jerry jacks was going to do ? were you working with him ? joe jr. : i only had one dose . i saved your life instead of mine . tracy : and now i suppose i 'm supposed to return the favor . joe jr. : just get my son over here ... so i can say goodbye . trey : try channel 4 . michael : they do n't have anything about the pier . starr : okay , well , maybe that 's a good thing . if there 's no news , then nothing 's happened . [ cell phone rings ] trey : hello ? tracy : is this trey ? trey : uh , yeah . is this about my father ? tracy : trey , he needs you . now . i 'll text you the address . trey : i 'm on my way . starr : hey , w - was that your dad ? trey : uh , no . kristina -- she says she saw something , a news report or something , about my dad being spotted , so she 's freaking out . i got to go to her . starr : you 're going to kristina 's now ? trey : yeah . she 's worried my dad 's gon na come after her . starr : whoa , whoa . you promise me that you 're not going to the pier . trey : no , i 'm not going to the pier . i gave you my word . i 'm gon na keep it . [ door closes ] starr : do you still want to leave , michael ? michael : somebody should have called by now . the longer this thing takes , the worse it might be . and the shots were fired before my dad left . starr : what are you trying to say ? michael : this whole things started because bernie called about jason . he was the target . starr : is n't that sort of his job ? michael : look , jason is more than just an uncle to me . he 's taken care of me my whole life . and he and sam just found their baby . if something happens to him ... sam : john , i would want you to stay in town , yes . i would miss you if you left . mcbain : i 'm not sure jason would feel that way . sam : what did you come to talk to jason about ? i know you were n't expecting me to answer the door . you were expecting jason . mcbain : manning 's been released . he 's denying any involvement in the baby switch . sam : he -- he must have had involvement . the way he was acting the whole time i was working for him , he was keeping a secret . he knew my son was alive . mcbain : i know . but they do n't have enough proof to hold him . sam : okay . okay , i want the people who kept my son away from me brought to justice , but right now , i am ... i 'm too happy to care . how 's tea doing ? mcbain : she 's back in llanview . her daughter is home from -- from school , and her brother is staying with her right now . sam : that 's -- that 's great . i 'm glad she has family she can turn to . mcbain : i should probably get going . sam : john , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . mcbain : do n't be . i do n't want that for you . see ya . sam : john ? mcbain : mm ? sam : i really hope you get your family back . mcbain : i know how easy it is to lose all this . what you have with jason and danny ... always cherish it . [ police radio chatter ] sonny : did you find him ? not yet , sir . sonny : okay , you got to get more divers . off . griffin : we 've got a full emergency response here . sonny : i will pay for the extra people ! off . griffin : it 's not about the money . we 're doing all we can . sonny : you have to keep looking ! he 's got a wife and a kid ! dr. v : i have your prescription , lulu . lulu : thank you . dr. v : i 've given you the same dosage as before , so just let me know if you have any new side effects . lulu : what is all this ? dr. v : i know that you both are still processing all of this , but i wanted you to have all your information . when you 're ready , these will show you some alternatives to creating a new family . lulu : alternatives . dr. v : this diagnosis does n't have to mean the end of your dream , lulu . if you and dante want a child , there are still many ways for you to have one . got your work cut out for you . off . luck : why 's that ? from the size of the entry wounds , guy got shot by two different guns . [ computer beeps ] anna : [ gasps ] it appears we have our answer . luke : okay . what 's the verdict ? anna : according to the pcpd database , the prints we pulled from the glass were ... an exact match ... for duke lavery . i never had any doubt . duke : well , now that formalities are out of the way , a deal 's a deal . you 'll leave us both alone ? starr : oh ! michael . michael , they 're saying something about trey 's dad . we 're still waiting for an official statement concerning tonight 's events . sources inside pcpd say that shots were fired and a search is under way for joseph scully jr. , who is currently at large . he should be considered armed and extremely dangerous . starr : they did n't say anything about your dad . they would have if he was involved . michael , what ? michael : that call that trey got before . i do n't buy that that was kristina . starr : you think he was lying ? michael : he 's done it before . for all we know , he 's out there right now , trying to help his father get away . tracy : you do n't have much time . trey : oh , my god , dad . dad . joe jr. : joey ... my boy . i want you to know ... i love you . always . you remember that . trey : dad , who did this to you ? joe jr. : [ clears throat ] sonny . [ groans ] it was sonny . sam : you 're sleepy , are n't you . i know you were trying hard to wait up for daddy . me too .

lulu : do n't you worry , connie . alexis is taking care of all the paperwork to make it official that she is handling our case . and then i am going to tell her everything that she needs to know about maxie to make sure that no judge will ever grant her and spinelli custody of you . [ elevator bell dings ] lulu : spinelli . what are you doing here ? spinelli : uh , i - i came to visit ellie in the lab . is -- is connie sick ? lulu : she 's fine . we 're just picking up a vitamin prescription . i wo n't keep you from ellie . bye . spinelli : lulu , um ... we have to talk about the baby . mac : hey . maxie : oh , my god ! you 're back ! how 's your brother ? is he okay ? mac : yeah . yeah , robert 's fine . thank god . anna 's with him . anna : our daughter was here . robin was here . robert : she 's somewhere on this island . anna : we have to find her . robert : let 's go . come on . jerry : well , well , well ... looks like i have some uninvited guests . robin : i 'm going home . i 'm finally going home . and no one will ever keep me from patrick and emma ever again . sabrina : [ laughs ] did you just ask me to marry you ? patrick : mm - hmm . and you said yes . you 're not taking it back already , are you ? sabrina : are you kidding me ? it 's what i 've always wanted ... so much , i was afraid to wish for it . i mean , as long as you 're sure this is what you really want . patrick : sabrina , you taught me that i could love again . that 's exactly what i want to do for the rest of my life . i love you . sabrina : [ laughs ] robin : by this time tomorrow , i will be back home with patrick and emma . nikolas , hurry up . i ca n't wait much longer . nikolas : get your hands off her , or i 'll kill you right here . britt : nikolas . thank god . faison : nikolas cassadine . what an honor , your highness . nikolas : shut up , you bastard . let her go to her baby . now ! maxie : this is great . i know how worried you were about him . mac : well , truthfully , almost a year in a comma has n't done much damage to robert . you know , he 's as stubborn as ever , insisted on walking days before the doctors wanted him to get out of bed . maxie : so why are you here ? i mean , do n't get me wrong . it 's not that i 'm not happy to see you . but should n't you be managing his recovery ? you know robert wo n't be listening to a word his doctors say . those macho types tend to be like that , and you need to be acting in his best interest . mac : robert has never listened to me . in fact , you could make an argument that he 's always done the opposite of what i want , which would mean i did him a favor by leaving . maxie : and that 's the only reason you came home early ? you talked to mom , did n't you ? mac : yes , i did . [ sighs ] sweetheart , i felt it was more important to come back home because of what 's going on with you and the baby . lulu : there 's nothing to talk about . connie is our baby -- mine and dante 's -- and that 's exactly how it 's going to stay . spinelli : i know we all feel strongly about her . lulu : actually , alexis is handling the paperwork to make sure . spinelli : to make sure of what ? lulu : we 've made a decision . we 're suing you and maxie for custody of the baby . sabrina : [ laughs ] oh , my god ! we have so much to talk about ! when are we gon na have the wedding ? where 's it gon na be ? what kind of wedding is it gon na be ? who 's gon na marry us ? patrick : okay , i do n't know if we have to figure all that out right this minute . sabrina : okay . no , i know . you 're right . i 'm just so excited . it 's actually happening ! [ laughs ] oh , my god ! just wait until i tell felix ! patrick : whoa , whoa on the felix thing . i think we should wait till i have a ring . he 'll kill me if i do n't have a giant rock . sabrina : you 're right . there could be violence . oh , god ! he 's not even gon na care ! i just ca n't wait to tell him . patrick : tomorrow . hmm ? we 'll go shopping for a ring . we 'll go eat , just the two of us . we 'll have a celebratory dinner , just me and my fiancée . sabrina : oh , my god . that sounds amazing . yes . let 's celebrate . emma : celebrate what ? dr. obrecht : you ? oh . robin : that 's right , lady . i 'm no one 's prisoner anymore . nikolas cassadine found me . dr. obrecht : nikolas cassadine ? h - how ? i - i do n't understand . what is he doing here ? robin : it 's his house . it 's his island . and by the way , he was n't too happy to find out that he had squatters . dr. obrecht : it 's impossible . this was his grandmother 's home . he would never return here . robin : well , he made an exception for you . dr. obrecht : me ? robin : you should n't have sent that video with you and britt 's baby . for supposedly a brilliant doctor , that was a really stupid move . nikolas recognized his family home , and he is upstairs as we speak , rescuing britt 's baby . nikolas : let britt have her baby , or i will put a bullet in your head . there 's not a jury in this world that would convict me for it . britt : listen to him , father . he means what he says . ah ! faison : take him . call that bulldog off . britt : oh , ben . oh , my god . oh , my god . i 'm so happy you 're okay . faison : how come you 're so happy to have him back , britt ? according to yourself , you 're not even that baby 's natural mother . dr. obrecht : [ grunts ] robin : and by the way , frau doktor , i know that that baby is n't patrick 's . i know that you lied to me . you only told me that because you thought that i would guard him with my life . and you were right . dr. obrecht : i do n't understand what is happening . robin : what 's happening , obrecht , is that it 's over . as soon as nikolas comes back with that baby , i 'm going home , and there is nothing that you can do about it . and to make it even better , i see that someone did me the favor of knocking you out . so who was it ? who else have you pissed off ? dr. obrecht : you want to know who left me like this ? it was your mother and your father ! jerry : what have we here ? the wsb elite has arrived . now it 's a party . robin : jerry j . jerry : oh , you recognize me . how nice . of course i know you both by reputation . the legendary robert scorpio and the delightful anna devane . so wonderful to meet you . anna : where 's our daughter ? ! jerry : oh , i see . no pleasantries , eh . you 're eager for the reunion . anna : where is she ? ! jerry : is that what passes for professional detachment at wsb these days ? either the bureau 's standards have declined dramatically , or you 're -- what 's the official term ? -- emotionally compromised . robert : shut up , jacks , and get out of the way . jerry : you 're in no position to give me ultimatums . you see , you 're both armed , but so am i . in fact , it looks like we 're in a standoff . robert : our daughter 's here , and we intend to find her . anna : this ends now . jerry : oh , i do n't think so . you see , i need robin more than you do . nikolas : what are you talking about ? of course britt 's ben 's mother . i was there when he was born . is he -- is he all right ? let 's get out of here . faison : oh , so britt did n't tell you . that 's interesting . so did britt lie about this kid and his parentage , or was she just lying to me ? nikolas : what is he talking about ? what are you talking about ? faison : britt told me that little cesar is n't my flesh and blood , nor is it britt 's flesh and blood , so ... nikolas : no , t - that does n't make any sense . baby 's yours and brad 's is n't it ? spinelli : you 're suing for custody ? she -- she is n't yours . lulu : we 'll see what the courts have to say about that . alexis is drawing up the paperwork as we speak . i suggest you get a lawyer . spinelli : maxie and i have talked to diane . she 's agreed to represent us . in fact , she 's filing paperwork , too , that ensures maxie and i will raise connie . lulu : you 're wasting your time and your money . because we are not giving her to you . spinelli : lulu , you 'll have to . diane is petitioning the court . she 's getting a court order to force you ... to relinquish our daughter . mac : court order ? are you sure you want to do this ? maxie : i do n't want to do any of this . it 's painful and awful , and i feel horrible about all of it . but spinelli and i do n't have a choice . it 's the only way we 'll be able to get back our baby . mac : there must be something else . maxie : well , diane said we could go to the police and inform them that dante and lulu kidnapped connie , but we do n't want to do that . mac : that would only make things uglier than they already are . maxie : you still think we 're doing the right thing , do n't you ? i mean , you and mom said that you thought the baby should be with me , since she 's mine , i should raise her . mac : yes , maxie . she 's your daughter . you should fight for her . maxie : even though i would be tearing her away from dante and lulu ? they 're like family to me . mac : sweetheart , things like this tear families apart . maxie : i hate this . i hate that i 've hurt dante and lulu . i mean , i 've proven to them that they never should have trusted me . i basically have lived down to everyone 's expectations . but i know that i would hate it even more if i had to live without my little girl . mac : yeah . sweetheart , i know you 're doing the right thing . but you need to be prepared . i mean , things could get worse before they get better . lulu : i ca n't believe that you would get a court order to force us to give up our baby . [ baby fusses ] lulu : that 's something that i would expect from maxie , not from you . spinelli : i do n't -- i do n't see another option in this -- in this most difficult of circumstances . lulu : yeah , we 've been through a lot of difficult circumstances , spinelli . do you remember when you were on the run from alcazar ? you were hiding out in that skateboard shop . spinelli : yeah . buddha barry 's . i sent a text to an acquaintance asking for help , and to my great surprise , you showed up . lulu : alcazar grabbed us , locked us in that warehouse . we heard him give the order to have us killed . spinelli : his henchmen gifted us a bottle of tequila , thinking that if we were drunk enough we would n't move , making us easier to kill . lulu : it almost worked . yeah . you were really drunk . spinelli : i thought a little buzz would lessen the terror . with greatest respect , you were -- you were pretty hammered yourself . lulu : poor jason came to rescue us . spinelli : you know , you taught me to be a friend . you and jason . lulu : that 's why i do n't understand . we 've always had each other 's back , spinelli . how can you do this to me ? patrick : what are you doing ? you 're supposed to be asleep . [ grunts ] emma : i could n't sleep . there are funny shadows on my wall . patrick : oh , yeah ? u want me to go chase them away ? emma : i want to stay with you and sabrina . patrick : oh , you do ? emma : what were you talking about ? sabrina : shall we ? patrick : tell her together ? we have some big news , and we want you to be the first to hear it . robin : my parents are here ? dr. obrecht : i must give credit . they are the consummate spies -- violent and deceitful . you mother manipulated me into telling her what she wanted to know , and then they dispatched me with a clonk on the head as thanks . robin : where are they ? dr. obrecht : i sent them to the lab . run along and go find them . you 're right , robin . you 're free now . free to do as you choose . robin : nice try . i 'm not letting you out of my sight . you 're coming with me . dr. obrecht : but i am injured . my second concussion -- robin : save it ! you 're coming with me right now . jerry : not so fast . britt : of course ben is brad and mine 's . i would have told my father anything to get him to give me my baby . i knew he would lose interest if i told him that ben was n't his grandson . faison : which is it , britta ? just tell me . is little cesar my flesh and blood or not ? britt : all you need to know -- faison : just answer me ! nikolas : i do n't have time for this ! and you 're in no position to make demands . we 're leaving , and so are you . faison : and where the hell do you think we 're going ? nikolas : your daughter and her son are going home . you 're going back to steinmauer permanently . britt : we have to be careful . my mother 's downstairs . faison : another lying viper . nikolas : do n't worry . i got obrecht covered . britt : by whom ? nikolas : you 'll find out soon enough . jerry : drop the gun . my usually even temper has been frayed by recent events . do n't test me . now slide it over . thank you . [ grunts ] dr. obrecht : it looks like the tables are turned once again , little bird . jerry : no thanks to you , dr. obrecht . how did robin manage to knock you down again ? dr. obrecht : she did n't . it was my insipid daughter who knocked me out . the first time , at least . that ungrateful wretch ! jerry : are there anymore members of your family dropping by ? dr. obrecht : i assure you britta 's arrive was quite unexpected . jerry : well , you stole her child . it did n't occur to you that she would come looking for him ? you 've become more trouble than you 're worth , dr. obrecht . robin : if you 're ready to shoot her , please , do n't stop on my account . dr. obrecht : so petty . jerry 's not going to shoot me . jerry : oh , that depends . where is your inconvenient daughter right now ? dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] she ran upstairs to try to wrest her child from cesar . britt : and i succeeded ... mother . oh , my god . you 're ... robin : robin . britt : you 're patrick 's wife . robin : and you 're the woman that tried to pass off that baby as my husband 's . emma : is this about dr. westbourne 's baby ? patrick : no . why would you say that ? emma : because whenever you say you have news , it 's always about her baby . patrick : well , not this time . this is about me and sabrina . now , you know how much we love each other ? very much . emma : i do know . sabrina : and we both love you very much . emma : i love you , too . sabrina : [ chuckles ] patrick : and because we all love each other , we want to spend the rest of our lives being a family -- all three of us . so we decided that me and sabrina are going to get married . spinelli : you saved my life , lulu -- not just physically , but ... you saved me as a person . u - until then , besides my beloved granny , there was no one that i cared about , nor anyone who cared for me , but ... you were so smart and so strong and ... so unexpected . i ... you made me want to be braver and better than i ever thought possible . so knowing all of what we 've been through , it is almost unbearable to see us in this place . lulu : a place where you are going to send an officer of the court into my home to rip my daughter away from me . spinelli : lulu , i had no idea that maxie was pregnant with my child until the baby was born . i did n't -- i did n't ask for this . i - i did n't know anything about it . i was in the dark as much as you were . lulu : why are you siding with maxie , then ? spinelli : when i found out what maxie had done , i was furious . and i - i - i told her that we had to keep it a secret because i wanted you and dante to have the baby that maxie had promised you , but ... now ... now i just ca n't . lulu : yes , you can . drop the court order , spinelli , please . convince maxie to do the same . maxie : i wish i could turn the clock back . you know , i wish i had been ... honest about the miscarriage when it happened . lulu said that she could 've forgiven me back then if i had been honest . do you think that 's true ? mac : no one really knows what they would have done . all we can do is face things the way they are now . maxie : i know you 're right . i just ca n't help but think this whole thing could have been avoided and lulu and i could still be friends . why do i do it , mac ? why do i lose all my best friends ? sabrina : so , emma , what do you think about our news ? emma : i 'm happy you 're getting married , but ... what about mommy ? britt : mother , did you know this whole time that she was still alive ? dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] what does it matter ? where is your father ? where is cesar ? jerry : finally a pertinent question . now , please enlighten us . where is that outrageously expensive and increasingly bothersome über criminal ? nikolas : oh , there 's so many to choose from . could you be more specific ? jerry : faison and prince cassadine . so lovely to see you there again . nikolas : now , i do n't remember inviting you , jerry . jerry : oh , please . with our history ? i did n't think a formal invitation was necessary . i mean , you 've been so helpful in the past . nikolas : right . when you poisoned me . but i understand that you 've since been poisoned . proof that karma exists . jerry : thank you so very much . nikolas : i was hoping you 'd already be dead . i can wait . drop the gun . jerry : or i could shoot robin . it 's not like i have n't done it before . robin : you 're not gon na shoot me . i 'm the key to your survival . unless you 're prepared to ship yourself off to australia to die . jerry : if i ca n't kill you , rest assured i wo n't hesitate to put a bullet in your parents . [ gunshots ] anna : anything ? robert : still tight . say what you like about the cassadines , but they do buy good equipment . anna : god ! we did n't come this far , get this close , to be trapped ! robert : maybe we missed something . let 's just do another sweep . anna : we 've got to get out of here . we 've got to find robin . nikolas : her parents ? faison : anna is here ? dr. obrecht : once again you embarrass yourself . the mere mention of her name , and you ... revert to adolescence . robin : just shut up , both of you ! jerry , i need to know . tell me , please , are my parents here ? jerry : well ... see for yourself . here you go . as you see . alive and well and safely tucked away in your cozy little lab , where they will remain indefinitely . unlike the rest of you . robin : what do you mean ? faison : yeah , what do you mean the rest of us ? dr. obrecht : how can you lump us in with these amateurs ? jerry : enough ! much better . now , let me make it plain . this is not a democracy . this is a dictatorship . i 'm fighting for my life here ! and you will do exactly as i say ! do you understand ? ! anna : can you picture her , looking at her own family on a screen ? robert : uh , when was this ? anna : it was the nurses ' ball . it was revived in robin 's memory . but she was n't dead . she was trapped in this box with no windows , and no one was even looking for her . robert : hey . there 's not a cell built that can hold you and i . we 're gon na get out of here , and we 're gon na find her . anna : jerry must have given this to her . i do n't know how long ago . it must have really tortured robin , looking at her family on a screen , close enough to touch , but so far away . jerry : you see , when i shot you at the metro court , sweet robin , it was to ensure the cooperation of the hostages . and your parents are gon na hold the same purpose . do as i say , and they remain safely locked away . cause me any annoyance or grief , one of them will be shot while the other one watches . robin : i understand . jerry : now , for future reference , uh , do you want your mother to bleed to death in front of your father or -- nikolas : she said she understands . she 'll cooperate . jerry : why should you care if i shoot them ? huh ? is it because you own the property and you feel responsible ? i have to say it was very negligent on your part to leave the lab unattended with all that dangerous equipment . i smell a lawsuit . [ baby fusses ] nikolas : whatever you want . jerry : what i want is to live . robin : oh ! now , my brilliant scientist here told me that the cure for polonium poisoning that is killing me is currently incubating in luke spencer . faison : does he hold the key to your survival ? jerry : yes , it 's rather macabre , do n't you think ? it 's almost vampiric ... the fact that for me to live , i have to have luke spencer 's blood . and you 're gon na get it for me . patrick : mommy 's not with us anymore , babe . emma : i know . but are n't you already married to mommy ? patrick : no , not really 'cause she 's in heaven now . emma : is that why you took off your wedding ring ? patrick : it 's part of the reason . but it 's not gone . it 's with mommy 's ring ... in a special box , where we 'll keep it always . patrick : that 's right . one day i 'm gon na give it to you . emma : because you 'll get another ring when you marry sabrina ? patrick : [ chuckles ] yes . sabrina : hey , emma , is something bothering you ? emma : you said that mommy 's always with us , watching us . patrick : that 's right . emma : then will mommy be sad if you get another wife ? robin : but luke spencer is in port charles . jerry : i imagine so , unless his flight was delayed . but he 'll be there soon enough . which presents a logistical challenge . see , here i am in greece , in the final throes of my illness , and my salvation is half a world away . what to do , huh ? dr. obrecht : it 's simple enough . abduct spencer , bring him back here , drain him dry , and let us get on with our lives ! nikolas : good luck with that . jerry : i agree with the prince . now that he 's healthy , he presents a real challenge . you two should be careful . faison : us ? y - you mean obrecht and i ? jerry : i did n't pay nearly $ 90 million for the pleasure of your company . if you could n't find me the cure , now you need to expedite it . robin : that 's not gon na work . you ca n't trust faison and obrecht . jerry : well , if i ca n't trust them , i know i can trust you . maxie : it hurts so much to be the one left behind when you know you 'll need someone that you 'll never see again . why do i keep doing things that make me lose my best friends ? first robin , now lulu . mac : [ sighs ] maxie , do n't talk like that . maxie : i mean , the explosion happened because my bag had got caught on that valve thingy in the lab , and i was so caught up in myself , in my own problems , that i could n't take the five seconds i needed to unhook my bag instead of just yanking it . five seconds . that 's all it took to cause that lab explosion . and now robin is dead because of me . mac : it was an accident . there 's no way you could have known . maxie : and now it 's happening again . lulu 's not dead , thank god . but i will be dead to her when i take this baby away . lulu : you and maxie are in no way prepared to take care of a baby . you 're not even together . what about ellie ? where will she live ? you live in your office . spinelli : look , it 's true . we have n't discussed logistics . but we 'll do whatever we need to do -- lulu : dante and i are prepared . we have had nine months to prepare for this little baby -- nine months of bonding and falling in love with her and listening to maxie tell us what great parents we 're gon na be . and we are . look at connie . she 's healthy , and she 's happy . [ voice breaking ] dante and i are doing a damn good job . spinelli : i know you are . lulu : so why ca n't things just stay the way they are ? why ca n't connie just stay with us ? spinelli : because it ca n't work . lulu : you said that it could . you said that at the baptism . spinelli : i was naive . i - i was naive to think that i could keep the secret that this ... this beautiful child is actually mine and maxie 's . but now -- now that it 's out in the open , now that i know ... that i 'm a father ... i ache for her . i - i want to hold her . i want to be with her . i want to be the father that i know that i am . lulu : people give up their children for adoption all the time . spinelli : lulu ... i 'm sorry . i would never want to hurt you . i wish i could take your pain away . but i 'm not gon na give up my child . lulu : then what are we supposed to do ? [ baby fusses ] lulu : dante and i are just supposed to suck it up ? we 're supposed to give up this miracle that we waited nine months for ? spinelli : no , no , no . uh ... y - you can have another ... baby . lulu : i ca n't carry a child , spinelli . spinelli : i - i 'm aware . but ellie told me that you had three viable embryos as a result of the in vitro fertilization process you did with dr. westbourne . obviously maxie used one and miscarried , but there are still other viable embryos in the lab . perhaps you can find another surrogate and start again . lulu : you make that sound like it 's easy . like a mother ... gets another goldfish to replace the one that died . do you think that we can replace this baby with another one , that we can trade in our little connie falconeri for a new model ? she is our daughter . i love her . and so does dante . we 've had nine long months to -- to bond with her , to fall in love with her . spinelli : i 'm so sorry , lulu . i would -- i would not have done that to you . lulu : everything that we 've been through ... all of the appointments , the sonograms , the classes ... even shopping for baby clothes , baby furniture -- do you know how hard it is to pick out a car seat ? i was there when she was born . i was -- i was the first person to hold her . and for weeks now , dante and i have been taking care of her . we 've been watching her growing and blossoming and learning every day . she recognizes my voice . spinelli , she -- she smiles when she looks up at me and dante . she batted at her mobile for the first time yesterday , and we fell apart with happiness . we want this baby . we love this one . she 's ours . faison : obrecht and i , uh , we ca n't go to port charles . i mean , are you out of your mind ? jerry : no , i 'm not . i 'm sorry . that is your department , you see . what i am is too ill to travel , so you and obrecht are gon na be my eyes and ears . faison : no , because i do n't take orders from you . jerry : oh , yes , you do , otherwise i 'm gon na go to the authorities and tell them that two international criminals are currently visiting cassadine island . nikolas : do n't sell yourself short there , jerry . i 'm sure the wsb would be interested in your whereabouts right now . jerry : well , i 'm very happy to stay completely deceased , so thank you very much . if you 're looking for reinforcements , rest assured the guards are completely loyal to me . now , where were we ? ah , yes . the cure . now , rather than bringing luke spencer back , robin -- yes , robin there -- is gon na synthesize the medication on site . robin : on site . you mean , in port charles . jerry : that 's right , darling . your dreams are coming true . you are going home . emma : i do n't want mommy to be sad . patrick : oh , neither do i , babe . but you know what ? before mommy died , she left me a message . she said that she wanted me to find somebody to love that is going to love you like you were her own ... to make a family together . and that 's what i found in sabrina . so i think mommy would actually be really happy for us . sabrina : hey , emma ? you know how much i love you , right ? and i want to be a part of your family . so this marriage has to be okay with you , too . is it okay with you ? emma : do you really think mommy will be okay ? patrick : yes , i do . emma : in that case , it 's okay with me . sabrina : [ laughs ] yay ! emma : [ giggles ] sabrina : oh . patrick : hey , where 's mine ? emma : [ giggles ] ah , thank you . robin : you 're really gon na let me go home ? jerry : yes , i am . under the supervision of faison and obrecht and the support of dr. westbourne and nikolas . the baby goes for free . dr. obrecht : how do expect us to assure their cooperation ? jerry : well , i believe that i said that robert scorpio and anna devane 's lives were at stake . dr. obrecht : yes , the scarecrow and the tiresome ex - husband . why would i care ? faison : [ speaking danish ] you have my full cooperation to save anna . jerry : i thought you would . so it 's settled , yes ? robin : yes , i will go home , and i will continue working on your cure . jerry : wonderful . but , um ... there 's a catch . no one in port charles should know that you 're alive . spinelli : i - i 'm sorry . i did n't -i did n't mean to be insensitive about you and dante having another baby . i know ... i know another baby can not just replace this -- lulu : yeah , of course they ca n't . so listen to me , spinelli . spinelli : but none of that changes the fact ... that she 's ours ... maxie 's and mine . no matter how bonded you are to her , no matter the circumstances that brought her into your care , she 's ours . t - those -- those milestones that you were describing , those are things that maxie and i should be celebrating with her because she 's ... she 's our baby , lulu . lulu : well , you ca n't have her . spinelli : well , i guess there 's nothing more to say ... except see you in court . mac : look , it 's true you made some pretty serious mistakes with lulu . but it is not true that robin 's death was in any way your fault . it was a horrible accident . robin would n't want you blaming yourself for it . maxie : i just miss her so much . i would give anything just to have her back for a minute . okay , 10 minutes . long enough to help me sort out my life . robin was the best at giving advice . mac : yeah , well , robin was the best at a lot of things . we just have to accept the fact that she 's gone . nothing can bring her back . robert : you found anything ? anna : no . nothing . i ca n't get into this panel . there is no way to open this door . what about you ? robert : you checked this ? anna : no . what is it ? robert : maybe it 's something we can use . robin : this is dr. robin scorpio - drake continuing my attempt to create another dose of the remedy for polonium-210 poisoning . anna : it 's robin 's voice . that 's robin . robert : look at the date of entry on this . it 's today . anna : she was here ... today ? i knew it in my heart , but now this proves she 's alive . she 's alive . robert : i swear to you ... we 're gon na get out of here , and we 're gon na find her . robin : you expect me to go to port charles and not see my husband or my child ? jerry : well , that 's if you want your parents to survive . was n't i clear ? they 're my hostages ! robin : so now you 're being consistent . jerry : love and fear are powerful motivators . let me restate the terms . if i see a boat or a plane that i do n't recognize , one parent dies , quickly followed by the other . now , if you find me the cure , robert and anna go free , and you can return to your bloody family . robin : i 'm gon na be so close , and i ca n't even tell my husband or my little girl that i 'm alive . jerry : keep your end of the bargain . cure me , and you can have a wonderful , happy family reunion . patrick : do you have any other questions , hmm ? emma : is there gon na be wedding cake ? sabrina : uh , of course . emma : can it be chocolate ? sabrina : oh , it can be anything you want . emma : yay ! we 're getting married ! sabrina : [ laughs ] jerry : oh , by the way , uh , the same rules apply to you , too . you do n't say anything about robin or faison or obrecht or me . if you do ... dr. obrecht : we will know . jerry : exactly . now , everyone prepare to depart . nikolas : do what he says . jerry : wise choice . can i rely equally on you to be wise ? robin : i will do what you ask . please , can i see my mother and father before i leave ? jerry : you 've already seen them . as for a visit , you can have one when you cure me . now , are we all in agreement ? yes ? let 's go to port charles .

elizabeth : good morning , jake . jason : thank you . elizabeth : how do you like your new accommodations ? jason : well , less of machines and monitors is good . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jason : wish i could open that window , though . elizabeth : oh , yeah . sorry about that . will you settle for breakfast in bed ? jason : you do n't really need to wait on me . is n't that somebody else 's job ? elizabeth : well , i saw an orderly with your tray , and i decided to liberate it so i could see how you were feeling after your move . jason : i feel fine . elizabeth : fine ? how did i know you were gon na say that ? sure you 're not experiencing any discomfort ? jason : nothing i ca n't handle . [ clears throat ] elizabeth : jake , that 's the whole idea behind pain meds -- to help manage your pain . jason : yeah . see , i ca n't remember who i am . i do n't really need to add being groggy on top of it . i need to be able to think . elizabeth : okay . is there anything in particular that you 're thinking about ? jason : um ... that woman who came to visit me yesterday ... elizabeth : mm - hmm ? jason : ... the one who hit me -- elizabeth : jordan ashford ? jason : mm - hmm . elizabeth : is it still bothering you that you ca n't remember her voice from the night of the accident ? jason : no . after you left , i remember hearing her . elizabeth : great . mystery solved . eat your breakfast . jason : no , no . you do n't understand . it was n't only jordan 's voice that i heard . there were two voices . kiki : hey . morgan : hey . kiki : how 's my mom doing ? morgan : she 's , uh -- she 's doing all right . your dad 's up there with her . he 's giving her another shot . kiki : is it working ? morgan : yeah . i mean , apparently , he stopped the baby from coming early , so i think the worst is over . kiki : oh , okay . good . thank god . morgan : yeah . she got a few pieces of toast down this morning . she got a whole night 's sleep , so ... kiki : at least one of us did . morgan : yeah , i know . i 've been up and down all night , worrying about ava . but why did n't you sleep ? kiki : because of michael . michael : commissioner devane ? anna : hmm ? oh , good morning , michael . michael : i 'm really sorry to interrupt your breakfast , but did you get my messages i left you last night ? anna : mm - hmm . i did , yeah . michael : that 's why i had to track you down . i need to talk to you about my father 's murder . lulu : oh . come on , rocco . you love this cereal . oh . you want the cereal ? you know you crave this cereal . these are not the droids you 're looking for . olivia : this is so nice that we can all have breakfast together like a family . dante : yeah . it 'd be a lot nicer if my son would eat his breakfast . lulu : mm . he 's not usually this fussy . sonny : can i just try once ? lulu : be my guest . dante : what are you gon na do ? sonny : i 'm gon na make him an offer he ca n't refuse . dante : for real ? mafia jokes ? sonny : [ laughs ] olivia : stop the presses . sonny : you ready ? if you eat this , you 're gon na grow big and strong and i 'm gon na let you box at my gym . what do you say ? one little bite . one little bite . come on . ohhhhhh ! i told you . lulu : [ laughs ] listen , sonny , i know things have been awkward between us because of my father -- that he 's supposedly been working with the jeromes against you . sorry . olivia : what the hell ? ned : `` who was spotted canoodling with aunt by marriage and former flame monica quartermaine at the metro court ? why , none other than ned ashton . looks like the ever - single heir is now squiring a woman old enough to be his mother `` ? i 'm not squiring anybody ! `` if this pair is on again , one can only imagine that alan quartermaine is spinning in his grave . `` where the hell did they get this ? julian : from me . alexis : hey , i got this guy . hello . is n't that g.i . joe ? does n't g.i . joe stand for truth ? huh . ironic . grandpa julian does n't . doop , doop , doop - da - doo [ clicks tongue ] [ gasps ] look who 's here ! look who 's here ! sam : hey , danny ! alexis : yay ! patrick : hey , buddy . sam : mommy 's home ! alexis : let 's go see mommy . sam : [ laughing ] hi . alexis : come here . come here . doo - doo doo - doo doo - doo doo - doo doo - doo sam : oh , i missed you ! olivia : who wrote this garbage ? sonny : okay , here 's the thing -- i 'm very concerned , but luke is an old friend of mine , and i 'm not gon na rush to judgment . i 'm just gon na keep an open mind . dante : that 's good , because we do n't anything until tracy gets back . tracy : i am back . morgan : wait . michael thinks ava killed aj ? kiki : michael is convinced that she got carlos to take the fall for her . morgan : okay . well , what did you say to him when he told you that ? kiki : i told him to consider the source -- that carlos is probably guilty and was just trying to save face for his freedom . morgan : yeah . okay . that 's -- that 's a good thing . kiki : right , but it 's not like i can tell him the truth -- that my mom did n't kill aj and that sonny did . anna : well , michael , your father 's murder case was closed six months ago . carlos rivera admitted to shooting him . michael : yes , i know . anna : and all the evidence we have supports that confession . michael : yes , i know that , too , but now carlos rivera is saying otherwise . ned : jerome . julian : hey , ted . ned : you honestly think mispronouncing a single - syllable name is the pinnacle of wit ? by the way , how the hell did you get in here ? julian : i , uh , sweet - talked the help . ned : did you also happen to employ the use of a firearm ? julian : oh , that was hardly necessary . i 'm sure you 'll find i can be more than persuasive when i want to be . for instance , um ... what did you think of my article today ? ned : if you 're referring to the allegation that i 'm sleeping with monica quartermaine , it 's totally untrue . julian : well , if you would have bothered to read the article , you would have seen there was no mention of you sleeping together , although , to be fair , i 'm a little unsure of what the dictionary definition is of `` canoodling . `` ned : monica and i ran in to each other at the restaurant . pure coincidence . there 's nothing going on between us . julian : touchy , touchy . but i really do n't care what you say is going on . as per newspaper policy , i have two sources who say otherwise . ned : do those sources happen to be on your payroll ? julian : hmm . you know , i would n't scoff at the fourth estate , ned , considering you 're gon na be the focus of an ongoing series . ned : ha ! ongoing series ? julian : mm - hmm . yeah . today you 're having an affair . tomorrow you 're gon na be a drug addict , and , well , friday , who knows , right ? i mean , maybe you 'll be ned the pedophile . ned : because there 's no level to which you wo n't sink . julian : yeah . of course , you know , these stories -- they never have to see the light of day . all you have to do is stop seeing alexis . sam : i know that you already have a lot of new toys , but i thought you could use a new one . so , guess what i got you . voilà ! alexis : wow ! sam : all the way from amsterdam ! do you like it ? i 'll take that as a `` yes . `` alexis : yes . sam : there you go . go play with it with the other ones . patrick : he 's a man of few words . sam : yeah , just like his father . alexis : okay . so , how was amsterdam ? did you get confirmation that luke is julian 's boss ? lulu : tracy , i am so glad to see you . tracy : i am so glad to see you . dante : how did it go in amsterdam ? lulu : did you meet with my dad ? tracy : no . he did n't show up . lulu : oh , no . so , the whole trip was a bust ? tracy : far from it . i learned that luke is completely innocent of the allegations . lulu : you 're sure ? tracy : absolutely . it was a frame - up by jerry jacks . jason : i heard two voices talking to each other . elizabeth : maybe it was the police or the paramedics . do you know what they were saying ? jason : i do n't know . i ca n't remember . elizabeth : okay . well , try not to think about it for a while . if it 's important , it 'll come back to you when you least expect it . jason : you 're probably right . elizabeth : i 'm always right . jason : oh , really ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . jason : huh . elizabeth : except when i 'm tragically wrong . here . eat your breakfast . maybe some food will help jog your memory . [ gasps ] jason : ooh , wow . elizabeth : yay ! jason : so , what you 're trying to tell me is i 've got to remember something right now -- otherwise , you 're gon na make me eat this until i do ? elizabeth : okay . i know it looks less than appetizing . truth is g.h . 's food has never been much to write home about , and our new chief of staff has managed to somehow make it worse . jason : trying to cut costs ? elizabeth : actually claims it 's for the benefit of the patients . jason : hmm . elizabeth : yeah . meet nutrigruel , patent pending -- all the meal 's nutrients in one efficient little package . i 'm pretty sure it 's the chief 's secret recipe . jason : i do n't think i like this woman . elizabeth : get in line . jason : clearly , you do n't , either . elizabeth : to say that i despise liesl obrecht with every fiber of my existence would be the understatement of the century . dr. obrecht : did someone mention my name ? elizabeth : dr. obrecht . we did n't hear you come in . dr. obrecht : please , nurse webber . spare the minnie mouse apology for someone your pathetic barbs will actually sting . elizabeth : funny . i do n't remember apologizing . dr. obrecht : stocke und steine and all that . besides , we must not bicker in front of our patient . jason : oh , no . please do n't stop on my account . dr. obrecht : liesl obrecht , chief of staff of general hospital . and you must be john doe -- the one i 've heard so much about . elizabeth : actually , we think his first name is jake . dr. obrecht : jake ? and you 're sure you do n't want to try something else ? elizabeth : what 's wrong with `` jake `` ? dr. obrecht : nothing , if you were a mongrel found in an alley . jason : well [ clears throat ] i was found in the middle of route 31 , so you 're not far off . dr. obrecht : well , if that 's what you want to call yourself , who am i to argue ? now on to the next order of business . we 've established you have no identification , but do you have insurance ? ned : you 're gon na smear my reputation if i do n't stop seeing alexis ? julian : yeah , that 's about the size of it , although , truth be told , it might not be enough for you to just stop seeing her . ned : you want me to stop listening to her , too ? julian : here 's the thing -- you and alexis live fairly close to each other , and , as you so kindly pointed out , it is possible for people to run in to each other . ned : so , what are you saying ? julian : if you 're serious about preserving your reputation , you 'll get the hell out of port charles . alexis : jerry 's involved ? what about the polonium poisoning ? sam : cured . patrick : yeah . seems perfectly healthy . alexis : swell . i bet his family 's very relieved . patrick : right . alexis : what was jerry doing at a meeting that tracy set up for luke ? sam : well , jerry claims that he was holding luke captive . alexis : captive ? i thought all the evidence pointed right to luke . patrick : well , jerry said that he manufactured that evidence . he had luke 's phone , and he was using it to make luke look guilty . alexis : so , all this time , it 's jerry that 's been working with julian , not luke ? sam : well , i mean , that was certainly the implication . patrick : i do n't believe a word of it , but tracy does . tracy : jerry jacks explained it . olivia : now , tracy , why would you believe a word that man said ? tracy : ordinarily , i would n't , but it all added up . his mafia ties go back years , maybe even decades . sonny : yeah , that 's true . jerry has been in bed with several families . lulu : tracy , i want to believe everything you 're saying . tracy : what 's stopping you ? lulu : there is one more thing we need to know . where is my father ? morgan : look , i want to believe ava more than anyone , obviously , but , you know , we only have her word that sonny killed aj , and she 's not exactly a pillar of honesty . kiki : you think that my mom killed aj ? morgan : we went over this . we went over this . look , my dad said he did something terrible , something he regrets , and that ava was holding over his head , so , yes , at first , i thought that sonny killed aj , but now i do n't know . kiki : why -- just because michael suspects her ? morgan : well , i mean , think about it . if ava 's the killer , then would n't she throw the suspicion on to somebody else , especially someone she hates as much as my dad ? kiki : okay . i know that my mom is not an angel , okay ? but i do believe her on this one . her story makes sense . why else would sonny have locked her in his house ? morgan : yeah , that 's -- that 's true . you did n't tell michael any of this , did you ? kiki : no . of course i did n't , because the last thing he needs to know is that his father killed the other father . morgan : how was he when you left him ? kiki : he 's michael corinthos . he is hell - bent on finding out the truth and getting justice for aj . morgan : sounds like my brother . kiki : he 's not gon na stop , morgan . he 's looking for commissioner devane . as we speak , he 's probably telling her his theory . michael : i talked to sabrina santiago . apparently , she and carlos used to be engaged back in -- anna : yeah , no . i 'm well aware of their personal history . what does she have to do with your father 's murder ? michael : okay . sabrina told me that she went to visit carlos in pentonville . he told her that he did n't kill aj . apparently , he was pressured into a confession . anna : what do you mean , `` pressured `` ? michael : he was more like threatened . anna : threatened by who ? michael : ava jerome . elizabeth : insurance ? are you joking ? dr. obrecht : yes , nurse webber . i am developing a stand - up routine on the theme of healthcare costs . do you think it 's ready to take on the road ? elizabeth : you just said he does n't have an id . he came in here with no wallet , no credit cards , no license , nothing . he does n't even know who he is . dr. obrecht : so , that 's a no ? jason : as far as i know , i could have amazing insurance . dr. obrecht : or you could be some sort of societal parasite -- a vagrant , perhaps , or a freelance musician . elizabeth : that does n't mean you can just throw him out on the street . dr. obrecht : herr doe , do you have any idea how much you 've cost this hospital so far ? cts , mris , trauma surgery , plastic surgery -- the list goes on and on . elizabeth : dr. obrecht , what happened to `` every patient , no matter their financial situation , deserves care `` ? dr. obrecht : indeed they do , and general hospital is happy to provide it . but , in the case of herr doe , this hospital has more than provided . now that he 's well on his way to recovery , i wo n't allow him to stay in this bed getting soft and flabby . elizabeth : i do n't think that 's gon na be a problem . dr. obrecht : this hospital 's mission is to whip its patients into shape so they can be returned to the world as strong , contributing members of society . jason : great . so , i can leave . elizabeth : what ? ! no ! you ca n't leave ! jason : i do n't know until i try . elizabeth : you ca n't even stand . no , listen . stop . do n't , okay ? dr. obrecht , how do you think the board would feel about you threatening to evict a patient who ca n't even walk ? dr. obrecht : i was merely encouraging him to hasten his recovery . what are you waiting for , herr doe ? eat your nutrigruel . you should mind your insolent mouth , nurse webber . i fired you once , and i 'd be more than happy to do it again . elizabeth : then who would i turn to ? if only i had a friend who lived in a castle on an island whose shoulder i could cry on . dr. obrecht : fortunately for you , this hospital still has its `` three strikes `` policy . this is merely your first . elizabeth : mm . [ sighs ] jason : is she always that hard on you ? elizabeth : oh , that was a little worse than usual . nothing compares to the day she shot me . kiki : if michael does tell the commissioner his story , do you think it 's enough to reopen the investigation ? morgan : i do n't know . i do n't know . but if she does , i mean , the first thing she 's gon na do is talk to rivera . kiki : [ sighs ] do you think that he 'll say anything to her ? morgan : maybe . you know , maybe . but -- but , you know , maybe he 's had enough of the prison life and wants out and he 'll point the commissioner towards the truth and then she 'll find out that carlos is innocent and ava 's innocent . kiki : and that sonny is guilty , and if she goes to michael with that fact , it 'll destroy him . anna : so , carlos is recanting his confession and claiming that ava killed aj ? michael : yes . anna : well , does he have any proof of her involvement ? michael : not that i 'm aware , but carlos did say that ava wanted my father dead . anna : why ? why would she want him out of the way ? does sabrina have any idea ? michael : no . anna : michael , i mean , you 're not giving me anything here . michael : i know i do n't have any answers , but i was hoping these questions would be enough to reopen the investigation . anna : oh , i -- look , i understand you wanting to make sure that the person who killed your father is punished and doing whatever it takes to make certain that this happens . michael : yeah . would n't you in my position ? anna : of course . but i questioned carlos thoroughly around the time of his confession . i mean , he insisted that he was guilty . michael : yes . that 's because he was taking the fall for ava . anna : ava has an alibi for the night of your father 's murder . michael : yes . we both know alibis can be faked . anna : yeah . but in order for me to reopen this investiga -- michael : no `` buts , `` please . my father 's killer could still be out there , getting away with it . sonny : so , jerry jacks is holding luke hostage ? lulu : we have to find a way to get him back . tracy : i am already doing everything i possibly can to get him back . dante : why does jerry even have luke ? what could he possibly want with him ? tracy : the last time jerry jacks disappeared from port charles , he was dying from polonium poisoning . sonny : too bad it did n't finish him off . tracy : it almost did . and then he managed to nab luke and , from his blood , reverse - engineer a cure , so now jerry is right as rain . he 's promised to give back luke for a price . lulu : all of this because he wants money ? tracy : no . mr. jacks wants elq . patrick : tracy is prepared to give up all her stake in elq to get luke back . alexis : and you think jerry 's playing her ? sam : there are too many unanswered questions . even if jerry is masterminding the operation , it does n't mean that he knows everything . patrick : yeah , like spencer cassadine . sam : yeah . i mean , spencer said that he heard luke in the stables , not jerry . alexis : turns out that sam talked to tracy quartermaine , and tracy said that you and luke had your heads together in wyndemere stables the night of nikolas ' engagement party . julian : just because tracy may or may not have seen me -- alexis : 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 . sam : mom , what are you thinking ? alexis : i 'm thinking that i should probably try to get some information from julian again , but why bother , right ? because all he does is lie to me . sam : well , tracy is the one that says that she saw luke and julian in the stables that night . alexis : speaking of tracy , i need to let ned know that she 's about to let jerry inside elq . right ? he has every right to know that the proverbial fox is back in the henhouse . ned : you want me to leave port charles so you can have a clear shot at alexis ? julian : no time like the present . ned : i 'm not going anywhere . my family 's lived in this town for generations ! julian : oh , come on , ned . it 's not as though you had any problem leaving them before . i mean , do n't you have a little pop - star daughter out there somewhere ? i mean , i 'm sure she 'd benefit from your guidance as a manager . ned : brook lynn already has a manager , and i have my own company to run , so i 'm gon na be staying right here . julian : well , you act as if as though you have a choice in the matter , 'cause you do n't . ned : maybe you 're not aware , julian , but we ashtons are a tough lot . so , if you want to intimidate me , it 's gon na take more than just a few insults in your newspaper for which , by the way , i am more than happy to sue your ass . julian : well , lawsuits -- you know , they take so many years and very difficult to prove . ned : i 'm actually surprised you 're resorting to libel . here i thought you were a big - time mobster . julian : allegedly . ned : so , come on . where are the cement shoes , the fish wrapped in newspaper , the tommy gun hidden in the violin case ? julian : contrary to your outdated notion of mafia culture , i 'm more than happy to handle this with my bare hands . ned : oh . so , you want to step outside ? julian : i will if you will . alexis : hey , ned ? ! hey , it 's alexis ! i 'm sorry to barge in here like this . it 's just -- what the hell ? ! stop ! stop ! stop it ! what the hell is wrong with the two of you ? ! ned : [ breathing heavily ] hey . tracy : i 'm more than willing to give up my shares . the problem is i only own 9 % of the company . sonny : knowing jerry , that 's not even going to come close . tracy : no . i have told him that i will scrounge up more , but i 'm not sure how much more i 'm gon na be able to get . lulu : well , what can we do ? tracy : you and dante can talk to your family -- specifically , michael . dante : look , last i heard , michael and luke were n't on the best of terms . i 'm not sure i 'm the guy who 's gon na be able to persuade him . tracy : try . michael owns 25.5 % . he became the majority shareholder when somebody killed aj last spring . anna : all right . here 's what i 'm gon na do , michael . i will -- i will talk to sabrina . and if the situation warrants it , i will go to pentonville and reinterview carlos , all right ? michael : okay . what about ava ? kiki heard from julian that she went missing . for all we know , she skipped town . anna : yes , i am aware ava has dropped out of sight . i have someone on that . that 's all i can do right now , michael , all right ? michael : all right . well , i 'm not letting this go . my father deserves justice . anna : talk to sabrina santiago . jason : chief of staff , that dr. obrecht -- she shot you ? elizabeth : yes . jason : what did you do ? did you come in really late or use too many gauzes ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] actually , she held me hostage in my own house . she needed a place to hide because she 'd just kidnapped one of my friend 's babies . and when the police were apprehending her , the gun she was holding on me went off . jason : how is this woman not in prison ? elizabeth : that 's the billion - dollar question . i guess when it comes to the law , dr. obrecht has more lives than a cat . jason : and how did she get to become a chief of staff at a hospital ? elizabeth : oh , that 's easy . she made a huge contribution to the hospital 's financial endowment . you know what they say -- money talks . jason : well , what about the `` first , do no harm `` thing ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] please . that whole babynapping and hostage - taking and gun - play thing was just the tip of the iceberg . when dr. obrecht came to port charles , she was the right - hand woman for an international terrorist named cesar faison . jason : and who is he ? elizabeth : cesar faison ? he killed jake 's father . sam : [ chuckles ] danny 's really taken with you . patrick : that 's because i 'm the best first mate on the high seas . right , buddy ? right ? sam : so , listen -- as far as our investigation goes , what would you like me to do next ? patrick : well , there 's a possibility that luke is gon na return , if tracy plays ball with jerry . sam : if ? that 's a big `` if . `` patrick : anyway , believe me , sam , i feel like everything we 're doing -- i just feel like my hands are tied . sam : well , you know , sometimes cases go -- they go cold and then you get a lead and then you 're back in business again . patrick : thank you for saying that , and thank you for ... well , actually , i ca n't really thank you for everything that you 've done for me . sam : are you kidding me ? i 'm -- i 'm your friend . that 's what friends do . they do things for each other . patrick : yeah , but friends do n't travel overseas to help with investigations . sam : oh , no . they do when their friends are paying for their first - class tickets . patrick : yeah ? what about staying in a crappy hotel in amsterdam ? sam : oh , the water pressure was fine . patrick : mm - hmm . sam : yeah . patrick : sharing a bed ? sam : not a big deal . patrick : thank you . well , i should get out of your hair . bye , danny . danny : daddy ! no , wait ! patrick : [ chuckles ] sam : danny , let go of patrick . that 's your uncle patrick . he 's not your daddy . remember ? here 's your daddy . your daddy 's right here . he 's in heaven . remember ? yeah ? do you want to sit down and look at him for a little bit ? here you go . you play with your toys and you look at your daddy . i am so sorry . patrick : no , no . do n't worry about it . sam : i guess i remember so much about jason that danny does n't . i mean , he was just a baby when jason was shot , and now look at him . he 's a little boy . elizabeth : jason had a business associate named bernie who was in trouble , so jason went down to pier 54 and found bernie shot . he tried to help him , but faison shot jason . jason : some type of ambush ? elizabeth : i mean , we 'll really never know all the details . most of what we do know is from faison bragging about it . he said that he had , um -- he shot jason in the back and then kicked him in the water . jason : so , he 's not only a murderer , he 's a coward . elizabeth : jason was really strong . i believe he was still alive when he went into the water . i have nightmares about it -- about him being helpless and bleeding and the water closing in over his head . jason : i 'm sorry . elizabeth : thanks . i 've accepted the fact that it 's never going to get easier , no matter how much time passes . jason : how long has it been ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] two years ago ... today . sam : two years does n't seem like a long time for you and me , but for danny , that 's his whole life . i mean , he never got to know jason , and he never will . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : would one of you kindly explain why this place has turned into the thunderdome ? it 's not even thanksgiving . ned : your mafioso ex - boyfriend showed up and tried to strong - arm me into leaving town . by the way , did you hear i 'm sleeping with monica ? alexis : no . that would be considered news . ned : coincidentally , so did julian -- so much so that he decided to print it in his newspaper . yeah . he figured if he could smear my name in print , that i would leave town . alexis : julian ... a word . julian : [ sighs ] ned : alexis , wait ! what did you want to tell me about my mother ? ! tracy : oh , never mind alexis . i 'll tell you myself . dante : are you okay ? lulu : yeah . i 'm just trying to wrap my head around what tracy just told us . if jerry is holding my dad in exchange for elq , that explains a lot . dante : well , a lot but not everything . spencer said he overheard luke plotting against sonny , not jerry . sonny : can i say something ? um , i walked in on -- on spencer and luke . they were talking about something . lulu : wait . what do you mean ? sonny : well , spencer 's been trying to get ahold of me . i never called him back . then i went to the quartermaines , and he was with luke . spencer got real quiet . lulu : spencer got quiet ? sonny : yeah . dante : when was this ? sonny : aj 's funeral . um , i went there 'cause michael asked me to . morgan : do you think there 's any chance that mikey will just , you know , let this go ? kiki : we 're talking about michael , and it 's about aj , so no . morgan : not that i blame him . i think he 's right to want to know the truth about what happened to aj . kiki : of course he should want to bring his father 's killer to justice , but , unfortunately , he thinks that that is my mom , and as soon as he 's done talking to the commissioner , he 's going to try to find her . morgan : oh , wow . well , you know , he 'll never find her here , because , you know , it 's not like his girlfriend lives here . why would he ever come here ? we 're screwed , kiki . kiki : i 'm gon na have to lie to michael 's face again . i do n't know how much more of this i can take . i 've actually lost track of how many secrets we 're keeping from him . i 'm having trouble even looking him in the eye . michael . hi . anna : you owe me a scone . dr. obrecht : i want to know everything you said to my son about victor cassadine 's death . anna : nothing . dr. obrecht : a blatant lie . anna : while i am sympathetic to detective west to have the misfortune to be related to you , i have n't yet had the opportunity -- dr. obrecht : misfortune ? ! my son would have died in that clinic due to your incompetence had i not led the charge to rescue him . anna : as i was saying , i have n't yet had the opportunity to discuss with detective west how you murdered his father . dr. obrecht : ignorant sow . anna : do n't call me that . dr. obrecht : as usual , you do n't know the first thing about the situation . i most certainly did not murder nathan 's father . anna : correct me if i 'm wrong , but we do inhabit the same universe , huh ? i mean , even you can not deny what happened . dr. obrecht : i most certainly can . i deny it . see ? easy as zwiebelkuchen . anna : i saw you shoot victor cassadine . i saw it . dr. obrecht : yes , i shot victor , but i did not murder him . i acted in self- defense . anna : [ laughing ] he was handcuffed . he was unarmed . dr. obrecht : unarmed ? ! the man had a detonator in his possession . or do you not recall that the clinic went `` kaboom `` mere seconds after our escape ? victor was a dangerous man . anna : i agree . yes , he was . but it still was n't self - defense . got it ? dr. obrecht : fine . perhaps i was not defending my own self . anna : oh . whose self were you defending ? detective west , perhaps ? dr. obrecht : victor would have come after nathan sooner or later . i had no choice but to kill him . otherwise , he would have hurt my son . and , really , you 're in no position to talk or judge -- not after what you did to cesar . anna : ohh . sam : i am so sorry . patrick : for what ? missing your husband ? sam , if anybody knows what it 's like to miss someone you love , it 's me . sam : yeah , but even so ... you get to see your badass p.i . weeping and crying all the time , and after two years , it just -- i feel like it should n't affect me like this . patrick : two years is nothing when you lose somebody that you love as much as you love jason . sam : yeah , i know , but i think -- i think that 's part of the problem . i mean , i just took -- i took my wedding ring off . but , for some reason , i feel like i did n't have closure . maybe -- maybe it 's because i never actually got to say goodbye . jason : i wish i had something better to say than , `` i 'm sorry . `` elizabeth : it 's okay . i appreciate you listening . jason : i ca n't imagine losing someone like that ... maybe because i ca n't imagine having them in the first place . elizabeth : well , i hope you never find out what it 's like . we could n't even give him a proper funeral . jason : why not ? elizabeth : they dragged the harbor for days ... but they never found jason 's body . ned : mother , what are you doing here ? you know you 're no longer welcome . tracy : i realize that i am persona non grata in casa monica , but ... i have to impose on your good nature . ned : if this is some kind of act , it 's not gon na work . tracy : it 's not an act . i need your help , ned , please . alexis : what is the matter with you ? why would you do that to ned ? why would you go after him ? ca n't you take no for an answer ? julian : no , alexis . i ca n't -- not when it comes to you . olivia : well , this is just great . dante : what is ? olivia : everything , dante . we do n't know anything about luke . now we got jerry jacks in the mix , not to mention heather webber . lulu : heather webber ? do n't tell me she 's on the loose again . dante : no . no . if she was , i would know about it . olivia : okay , maybe not on the loose yet , but i had a vision of her last night running around free . dante : oh , ma . look , not that we doubt your , uh , abilities or anything -- olivia : okay , my visions are n't always exactly on the nose , but they do have a habit of coming through one way or another . dante : i 'll give you that . you do have a pretty impressive track record . olivia : dante , i - i understand that heather 's supposed to be locked up tight , but could you just go check on her ? it would really -- it would put my mind at ease if you could just go and make sure . michael : hey . what 's up ? morgan : oh , we 're just waiting for the morning coffee to kick in . what 's up with you ? kiki : did you talk to anna ? michael : yeah . i met her at the metro court . she , uh -- she agreed to look into this new information . kiki : about my mother ? morgan : kiki brought me up to speed . just when you thought you could put it to bed , right ? michael : look , i 'm sorry . i know this puts you in a difficult position -- both of you . but this is my father 's murder we 're talking about here . if anna does n't find ava , i will . [ next_on ] alexis : ( to julian ) have you had any dealings with jerry jax ? tracy : ned , please . you have got to help me ! elizabeth : ( to jason ) you 're not jason . lulu : ( to carly ) franco made all the arrangements . did you not know that ? sonny : ( to shawn ) somethin 's not right . heather : ( to franco ) you 're still planning revenge against carly .

[ scene_break ] sam : hey . hi , come in . jason : hey . thanks for doing this at your place . sam : of course . spinelli 's not inconspicuous . it would be hard to explain if elizabeth came home from work early . jason : yeah , um , so , are we making progress here ? sam : um ... jason : am i gon na be able to tell her my real name when we get married ? sam : let 's ask spinelli . spinelli : like a superhero who conceals his gift , a kryptonian who chooses not to fly -- oh , confining myself to the legitimate pathways of the internet . but let no one have any doubt . i am the assassin of the internet , hacker supreme . hm ? jason : oh , hi . spinelli : gracious greetings .

[ scene_break ] lulu : thank you so much for watching rocco . laura : aww , no need to thank me . i love spending time with rocco . although , i think he 's asking me if i know how to make a cannoli . lulu : [ chuckles ] that is because he 's spending so much time with dante 's mother . she 's our backup babysitter . laura : oh , yes , i 'm sure olivia loves spending time with rocco as much as i do . [ chuckles ] and i hope that it gives her a little bit of peace . i mean , i ca n't imagine how she felt when her baby ... lulu : um , actually ... the baby is alive .

[ beep ] spinelli : no again . you know , there may yet be a way to -- sam : a way to what ? spinelli : retrieve the deleted file . jason : it 's been deleted ? spinelli : yes , correct . the dna comparison between yourself and the unknown individual has been excised from the company records . jason : when ? spinelli : um ... july 9th of this year . jason : july 9th . when was the first time that we broke in to your cousin 's house ? sam : early july -- i think , uh , the 7th or the 8th . jason : and he knew we were there . sam : he confronted me . i saw him at kelly 's , and i thought covered , but obviously i did n't . spinelli : i 'm sorry , i fear i 've lost the thread of this conversation . are we still speaking of the deleted file ? jason : here 's the thread . sam and i know who deleted that file . [ scene_break ] nikolas : jake broke in to my house . he and sam downloaded everything off of my laptop -- the entire contents of the hard drive . elizabeth : and what did they find ? nikolas : [ sighs ] correspondence from a lab where i had a dna test ordered comparing jake doe to jason morgan . elizabeth : and does jake know he 's jason ? nikolas : he did n't see the results . i called the lab and had the reports destroyed in july -- the last time they trespassed in my home . elizabeth : why did n't you tell me there was a dna test ? nikolas : why would i ? you knew jake was jason the night i told you . you do n't need some lab report to convince you otherwise . elizabeth : yeah , but labs keep records . why would you even take that risk ? nikolas : because i do n't trust helena as far as i can throw her . i needed proof , and once i got it , i destroyed the reports so there 's nothing to tie jake to jason . elizabeth : except for that letter on your hard drive , which will lead him straight to the lab . nikolas : he 's not gon na find anything at the lab . elizabeth : we hope . nikolas : you know , there 's an easy way to stop this . you can just tell jason the truth . elizabeth : no , no , no . nikolas : then i -- then i suggest you get a reign on your fiancé . convince him to give up the search for his past . elizabeth : i did n't even know jake was doing this . how am i supposed to stop him from uncovering the truth or , worse , finding out that i 've been lying to him this entire time ? nikolas : i do n't know , but you better figure it out . you better -- patrick : elizabeth . what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] jason : i thought nothing was ever really deleted . does n't it exist somewhere , like , what is it called ? the cloud -- on a backup of a backup of a hard drive . or does still exist on the hard drive once you erase it ? i thought it was there . spinelli : okay , that 's true in theory , but -- jason : hey , look . can you see me right now ? i do n't have time for theories . i really do n't . so , can you rebuild this file from the lab mainframe or not ? can you do it ? yes or no ? can you do it ? spinelli : it would take months of -- of forensic analysis . jason : months ? ! look , you 're -- you 're the jackal , right ? you 're the greatest hacker that 's ever lived . you ca n't rebuild one file ? not one ? you ca n't do it ? sam : hey -- spinelli : apologies for my limitations . jason : you know what ? you know what ? apologies -- you know what i 'm sorry for ? you really want to know what i 'm sorry for ? i 'm sorry that i thought there was gon na be an end to all this and that you two could help me find some answers . clearly , i was wrong . i 'm sorry for that . sam : hey , we 're doing our best . jason : i know you 're doing your best . i do . i appreciate that , but do me a favor . just stop . do n't do anything else . knock it off . we 're done . it 's over . sam : no , it 's not over . jason : yeah . it 's over . i am not gon na live this way -- asking the same questions over and over and coming to the same ends . this is done . sam : jake , you had a life . you had a life before this . jason : i had a life . i did , and it was stolen from me . it was ripped from me by helena or nikolas or somebody else -- somebody that i ca n't get back at . so just let it -- spinelli : stolen items can often be retrieved . jason : my past is n't sitting somewhere on a mainframe that can be rebuilt by forensic analysis . we 're not gon na find it . it 's gone . it does n't belong to me anymore . let 's ... leave it . thank you .

[ scene_break ] alexis : you ca n't win custody of leo by making him the prize in a tug - of - war . you need to use the courts . julian : what kind of a case am i gon na have ? i mean , olivia 's leo 's mother . are n't the courts gon na sympathize with her ? alexis : typically , family - court judges adhere to the principle of 50/50 custody , subject to the best interest of the child . julian : so , the best chance i have is half . alexis : you can go for more , if you want . you can go guns - a - blazin ' . you can -- you can be punitive and harsh , but i do n't recommend it . and i will tell you that family - court judges are interested in compromise , because it does n't serve a child when both parents are trying to put each other in prison . julian : but it 's an option . alexis : technically , you need to go before a judge first and then , after that , you can decided how -- julian : you know what ? you know what ? just give me a -- give me a second .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : so , how do you wish to proceed ? do we abandon the search in deference to mr. doe 's wishes ? sam : i think jake is just frustrated . he does n't want to give up . spinelli : uh , i most respectfully disagree . he seemed quite adamant on the point . sam : you heard him , spinelli . he 's been going through this for over a year . he thinks he 's got a lead , and then he 's right back where he started . spinelli : it is a most demoralizing prospect . sam : and i - i think if jake wants to take a step back , we let him do it . but i want to keep searching . will you help me ? spinelli : yes , with -- with pleasure . but i 'm -- but i 'm -- i 'm not overly optimistic on our odds to retrieve that deleted file from the lab 's mainframe . sam : no , no , no . i think we have to forget about the dna lab . we have to take this from another angle . the only thing we do know for a fact is that jake is tied to helena . spinelli : yes , but i - i would speculate that madame cassadine had any records of jake 's true identity destroyed , which would explain this dearth of information . it seems unthinkable , in the digital age , that there would n't even be the slightest trace of jake 's former self . in fact , this lack of data , to me , points to a very skilled cover - up . sam : okay , well , is there anywhere we should be searching that nikolas and helena could n't reach ? spinelli : perhaps . sam : perhaps ? spinelli : uh ... sam : what are you thinking ? spinelli : well , okay , there must be x - rays , right -- scans , perhaps even an mri of jake 's injuries . and such data , if properly analyzed , could yield a clue as to his true identity . sam : okay , but would -- would n't the doctors have found that ? spinelli : with due respect to the physicians in question , they are not me . they do n't have the cyber proficiency to synthesize the data in such a way that could yield previously -- sam : oh , no , no , no , no , i get what you 're saying . we have to get jake 's medical records .

at the metro court , julian goes to find olivia while she has their mutual baby and tells her he 's onto her and knows his son is right in front of him and she 's lied to him telling him baby leo died . she is not about to let him hold or have anything to do with their baby , which makes him angrier and demanding she lets him have his baby , making her more unwilling to remotely consider any such thing . alexis finds them there and urges julian to let her petition the courts to let him have legal rights to his child . knowing that if he does that , he 's at the mercy of the courts and not wanting to trust or have faith in that , he does not want to go that route or listen to alexis . so he attempts to have a calmer conversation with olivia reminding her that she had him falsely believing his son died . she apologizes and realizes that was cruel to him yet she tells him she has to put the baby 's safety first and can not take her chances on finding out what kind of a father he might be . yet it appears they come to an agreement to share custody of baby leo without any court battles .

lulu : after weeks of trying to get me back , you 're giving up ? logan : lulu , i 'm bad for you . all right ? i am . everyone in your life 's warning you to stay away from me . lulu : i do n't care what everyone thinks . logan : look , i 'm not good at doing the noble thing , so help me out here , all right ? lulu : what is really going on ? is someone making you do this ? [ scene_break ] carly : all right , michael . you have a good night 's sleep , sweetie . i 'll call you first thing in the morning . bye . remember that night in the rain , when i showed up pregnant with michael ? jason : of course , i do . carly : and you told me how dangerous your business was , that i might not always be safe . and i told you i understood . but i had no clue . i understand now . but when i stayed with you that night , you know , i did n't just choose for myself . i chose for michael , and then eventually morgan . now they 're trapped . i mean , they 're not as completely trapped as johnny , but they 're never truly going to be free . they 're never really going to have a normal life . sometimes i ask myself , `` did i do the right thing ? `` [ scene_break ] johnny : you wanted to see me ? anthony : you 're home . johnny : yes , sir . anthony : every time i ask for you , they told me you 're gone . where have you been going , johnny ? [ scene_break ] sonny : port charles is mine . i do n't share with anyone . trevor : i 'm interested in what makes you think you even have a choice . [ scene_break ] man : you went camping ? sam : no , it was a location shoot for my tv show -- more work than pleasure . man : well , it still must 've been nice to get away from the city . sam : uh -- yeah . actually , the -- the mountains were beautiful , but it is great to be home . so great . thank you . lucky : welcome home . maybe these were a little too much ? sam : no . no , they are perfect . and so are you . [ scene_break ] lulu : you said you would never hurt me . was that a lie ? is that where this is coming from ? logan : i care about you more than i 've ever cared about any girl . but i 'm a lousy bet , okay ? i -- i screw things up again and again -- like i did with carly today . lulu : yeah , i know , you grabbed her . logan : i got so frustrated , she would n't listen to me , and i just lost it . lulu : you would n't have hurt her . logan : no , of course not , but i let my emotions get the best of me . i was trying to explain to her , and she was n't listening , and before i knew it , i got completely out of line . lulu : yeah . and i 'm not saying that it 's okay , but -- logan : no -- no `` buts , `` lulu , please . it 's the same pattern with me over and over . your whole family has told y to avoid me , and i think you should . lulu : okay , i 'm going to make this real simple . would you ever do anything to intentionally hurt me ? [ scene_break ] anthony : why would you leave me , johnny ? johnny : i did n't leave . i went for a drive to clear my head . anthony : where did you drive , johnny ? johnny : along the river . whatever . anthony : you 're lying to me . i told you i do n't want you leaving this house , but you disobey . you run off without telling the guards . johnny : i always come back . anthony : i need you here ! johnny : i 'm here ! anthony : you 're the only thing i have left ! huh . such a handsome boy , johnny . so like your mother . why could n't you have died instead ? [ scene_break ] carly : i mean , there 's obviously no comparison between sonny and anthony zacchara . jason : you 're right , there is not . carly : i just wonder if anthony 's obsession with his son is anthony being afraid that , you know , his son is going to have to pay for everything he did wrong . jason : i mean , hopefully , michael and morgan will never really have to pay for sonny 's choices . carly : they already have . i mean , they were kidnapped , they lost leticia . i mean , a part of me wishes that nikolas killed leticia . i do n't want it all connected to sonny 's business . i know he 's a good father , jason , and he loves them so much , and i always tell myself that that 's the only thing that matters . that the guards and the threat -- none of that makes any difference because the love is there . but sometimes i wonder if i 'm wrong . [ scene_break ] sonny : people have tried to move in on me before , trevor . trevor : i know -- lorenzo alcazar , the ruiz brothers . sonny : they 're gone , i 'm still here -- see how it works ? trevor : sonny , if anthony zacchara wants to take port charles , he 's going to do it because he 's got better resources than you do . now , you be very careful what you wish for . because if you want a war , you 're going to get one that you do n't even have a chance of winning . sonny : i might 've believed that once . zacchara was the enemy no one wanted to have . he was ruthless , he was smart , he clawed his way to the top , kept his place through fear and respect . trevor : do n't you count anthony zacchara out yet . and now that you met him , you even have more reason to fear him . sonny : he 's a nut job and you know it , because you 're running the show , trevor ! what do you think i am -- stupid ? so i 'm telling you -- you stay out of it , or i will take you down . kate : well , i 'm glad to see that you made it back . trevor : oh , katie . it 's nice you 're here . now you 're going to get a chance to watch your boyfriend do business . [ scene_break ] sam : these are beautiful . thank you . lucky : you 're welcome . sam : well , how have you been ? lucky : well , better than i was this morning . sam : why , what happened ? lucky : uh -- alexis and i , we tried this legal maneuver against elizabeth and her lawyer and it backfired . now i ca n't see the boys until after this divorce is hatched out . sam : lucky , i am so sorry . lucky : well , you asked me how i was doing and i was honest . if you do n't want me to talk about my divorce , then -- sam : no , of course i want you to talk about your divorce . it 's just every time i hear elizabeth 's name , i get this knee - jerk reaction . she treated you horribly , she lied to you , she was -- lucky : listen , i do n't want to think about elizabeth . i 'm sick of thinking about everything that went wrong . sam : okay . i just want you to know that you can talk to me about whatever you want . i missed you . lucky : i missed you , too . [ scene_break ] logan : huh . i made that bet with maxie before i got to know you , before i realized how incredible you were . and i spent that time with you , we had those talks , and i -- huh . i never thought i 'd go through with that bet . lulu : but you did . logan : yeah , i did . i did the one thing i never intended to do , and you paid for it . i ca n't risk letting that happen again to you . lulu : if you really mean that -- logan : huh . remember how you told me it 'd be really , really hard for you to trust me again ? lulu : but that does n't mean that i 'm not willing to try . logan : yeah , but , lulu , i 've been -- i 've been pressuring you . that 's not fair . some damage that you do to people -- it ca n't be fixed . you know , they say that they 're fine and they 've healed , but they never are . lulu : you 're being pretty harsh on yourself . logan : i 'm done with the excuses . i do n't want to give myself another chance to fail you . it 's better if i just let you go . here , i got -- i got these for you . lulu : concert tickets . logan : yeah , you know , it 's a band we talked about going to see -- blue star -- and i was going to take you . but -- um -- i figured maybe you 'd just take somebody else . well , i guess i did one thing to make you happy , right ? [ scene_break ] anthony : they tell me to accept it . how can i when you , my ungrateful son , are the only one i have left in this world ? johnny : you have more than me . anthony : it should n't be this way . for a man 's son to show so little respect -- telling no one where he 's going , deserting the man who gave him life ! i should kill you ! but then i 'd have nothing left of her . johnny : i wo n't leave again . anthony : i 'll never let you feel this kind of pain , johnny . i 'll never let some bitch betray you . [ scene_break ] jason : well , now that sonny knows that trevor 's running the zacchara organization , you know , it 's possible trevor might back off a little bit . carly : if he does n't ? jason : well , if he does n't , sonny has diane working on getting trevor disbarred . i mean , if we could just find any kind of evidence that -- that says trevor 's involved in something illegal , then we can blackmail him into backing off . carly : that 's smart , and diane 's great -- she got you acquitted . jason : yes , she did . carly : speaking of which , how 's elizabeth ? jason : why , carly ? carly : i 'm just saying , you know , diane is handling her divorce , and i 'm sure she 'll be shopping for a new father for her children , and i 'm sure you 're at the top of the list . jason : okay , you know what ? do n't -- do n't start . do n't -- do n't do it , carly . carly : i want you to know that the last time this subject came up , you yelled at me , and it really hurt my feelings . jason : well , i do n't like you insulting her all the time . carly : i 'm sorry , i care about you . you have this weakness for a certain type of woman . i mean , robin was the first and the worst , and i think she probably warped you for life . jason : okay , you know what ? i came here to warn you about zacchara , not to get another lecture . carly : look , you could listen to me -- you know , i have insight , and i 'm your friend and i want to give it to you , and i think you should hear me out . jason : well , i 'm not going to sit here and fight with you , carly . carly : i do n't want to fight with you , either . look , all i 'm saying is that when you were first with robin , you were very impressionable , and you bought into this whole act of believing every little thing that came out of her mouth . even after she betrayed you , you were , like , preconditioned to believe that someone like robin -- hello , example , elizabeth -- was someone you should admire and respect . jason : are you finished ? carly : you know what ? i care about you , and i know i sound selfish , and obviously i would hate to think that i would ever stop mattering to you the way you matter to me , but i do truly , genuinely want you to be happy . and if elizabeth or robin or any other woman that sets high expectations for you and expects you to live up to them -- well , they do n't deserve you . and i love you , and sometimes i get overprotective , and occasionally i may , you know , freak out a little bit . jason : are you apologizing ? carly : i 'm never going to apologize when it comes to elizabeth or how i feel about her , but i could be a little more tactful with how i talk with you . jason : are you finished now ? carly : are you still mad at me ? jason : oh , carly -- okay , i know that you care about me a lot , okay , and i know that you have a very unique way of showing me . i 'll listen to what you said . carly : no , you 're not -- jason : no , i just -- i need you to just focus , please , on yourself and the boys , because what would make me really happy is to know that you guys are safe . carly : we 're going to be safe . we 're going to have you looking out for us . [ scene_break ] trevor : is n't life strange , kate ? i mean , all the abrupt detours it takes ? one minute you are the editor in chief of some top fashion magazine , and the next you 're fornicating with some street punk who kills for turf . kate : what is that supposed to mean ? sonny : it 's a threat from anthony zacchara . trevor : , no . i believe it 's a statement of fact . sonny : oh , you 're in a position to know , right ? trevor : kate , sonny refuses to grasp the tenuousness of life -- even his own situation . i know that you do , so maybe you 'll enlighten him . we 're finished ? sonny : not even close , trevor . kate : what was that about ? sonny : i just found out that trevor is not just anthony zacchara 's attorney . he 's running the whole damn show . sonny : anthony zacchara asked me if i liked to garden , a second later he 's -- he 's trying to force me to play russian roulette , then he 's threatening to kill my family . he 's totally insane . kate : you are lucky to have made it out alive . sonny : yeah , well , the last two people who visited zacchara wound up missing . and i can guarantee you right now that trevor is the one who had them killed because he did n't want anybody to know about the secret . kate : look , i realize you think that he 's in charge , but i am still not convinced . sonny : kate ! why do you keep defending him ? kate : trust me ; after everything trevor has done for me , i want him to rot in hell . i am just speaking from personal experience . nothing is more important to trevor than his position in society . i ca n't imagine him jeopardizing that -- to run a mob empire ? sonny : he 's up to his ass in this . and if somebody does n't stop him , he 's going to take us all down ! [ scene_break ] lucky : you know how many times i just want to pick up the phone and call you ? sam : you should have . lucky : no , you were working . i did n't want to bore you with all my stuff . sam : really , i meant it when i said that you -- and only you -- can call me whenever you want . lucky : yeah , i know . sam : what , you had no family to talk to ? [ sam chuckles ] sam : seriously , what about -- what about nikolas or lulu ? no one was around ? lucky : yeah , they had problems of their own . they tend to believe in tough love . sam : oh , tough love ? in other words , it was all your fault ? lucky : i 've made my own mistakes , and i 'm not making excuses for them . i just -- i just want to feel like somebody 's on my side . sam : you do ? i am . lucky : you 're the one person that has understood me . sam : i actually feel the same way about you . you accept me for who i am . and i can talk about jason and not worry about if i 'm angry or hurt or upset or -- i do n't know where we 're going from here , but you just get it . lucky : i guess we do need each other . sam : on one condition . you -- look at me -- feel free to call me anytime , anywhere , whether i am in port charles or hong kong . [ lucky chuckles ] sam : i 'm available , okay ? [ pager beeps ] sam : oh , no ! [ lucky and sam sigh ] lucky : i got to -- i got to take this . there 's been an explosion at pier 22 . listen , i 'm sorry , i got to run out . sam : lucky , come on . send rodriguez . lucky : listen , i will -- sam : be careful -- that 's what you will do . lucky : i will . sam : ooh . [ sam giggles ] lucky : welcome back , sam . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . lulu : not to bother you again , but tonight has been such a roller coaster . carly : let me guess -- logan . lulu : you 're wrong about him , carly . carly : if he says he did n't grab me , he 's lying , because he did . lulu : no , he was completely upfront about how he was upset and lost his temper , and he feels really bad about it . carly : i 'm sure he does . lulu : logan said that he does n't want me to have to turn against my family to be with him . carly : there 's a new twist . lulu : and he admits that he keeps making the same mistakes and he thinks that i deserve better than him , and he ended our relationship . carly : logan 's playing you . do n't fall for it . [ scene_break ] spinelli : uh , the blond one has not returned to her abode , nor has she replied to any of my messages . jason : okay , lulu 's fine . spinelli : you 've seen her ? um , where -- where did she go ? jason : well , she took off with johnny zacchara last night . his guards grabbed her , took her back to the family compound . spinelli : so her life is being threatened by the minions of darkness ? jason : she is being used as leverage so johnny comes back , he did , they released her . spinelli : oh . happy ending . jason : well , carly said that -- that lulu stopped by and she seemed fine . spinelli : then why -- why did n't she return any of my messages ? jason : i do n't know , man . she should 've . [ phone rings ] spinelli : okay , i 'm not trying to imply any criticism of the blond one , i 'm sure she had -- jason : hold on , hold on . yeah ? which one ? no , no , no , no , no , do n't . i 'll call sonny . spinelli : what -- what happened ? jason : one of our main warehouses had an explosion . looks like they made their first move . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] jerry : hello . sam : i did n't ask you in . jerry : is that a way to treat a co - conspirator ? sam : you see , `` we `` are not conspiring on anything . i thought about it while i was away and i decided that i 'm not going to let you bully me . jerry : oh , that 's why your location shoot was so conveniently timed . you were gone so long that you probably cooled all the interest trevor lansing might 've had for you . sam : you going to kill me now since i wo n't be seducing trevor after all ? jerry : no -- i would hate to upset your lovely mother . besides , you 're more useful to me alive . sam : i wo n't work with you , i will not help you , and if you threaten me again , i will go to jax and tell him everything . now , i would really like it for you to get out of my home . [ scene_break ] lulu : logan 's breakup was n't a ploy . it was real for both of us . carly : but you 're warming up to him . lulu : i 'm just telling you what happened . he is very sorry for everything . he -- he even gave me these concert tickets to a band we both like , and he was going to surprise me with them , and now he wants me to take somebody else . carly : lulu , that is the oldest trick in the book . please do not fall for it . lulu : fall for what ? we 're over , logan and i are through . carly : yeah , and he probably thought he was losing you , thought you might be listening to your family and friends telling you to stay away from him . he 's a liar , and he 's a jerk . so all of a sudden he 's doing some big show , trying to be noble so he 'll pull you back in . lulu : carly , i am not that naive . carly : no , you 're not . you 're smart and you 're savvy , but you 're also kindhearted and inexperienced . lulu : i am just saying logan is n't the piece of garbage that you 're making him out to be ! carly : i would bet money that he is sitting by the phone right now , knowing that you 're thinking about calling him and inviting him to the concert . lulu : you know what ? maybe that 's sonny or alcazar , but they 're not logan , and i 'm not you . carly : lulu , i know this is the last thing you want to hear -- lulu : thank you so much for your words of wisdom , but i can think for myself . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i 'm interfacing with the security cameras on pier 22 so we can monitor the aftermath of the explosion . jason : is that it right there ? spinelli : yeah . sonny : looks like the fire department 's got it under control , then . spinelli : yeah , it appears so . stone cold , i do n't get it . why plant an incendiary device in that particular warehouse ? there 's nothing there but innocent little coffee beans . jason : it 's a message -- probably from trevor that sonny should n't have gone to see anthony zacchara . spinelli : how did it -- mr. corinthos , sir 's meeting -- go ? jason : zacchara is completely insane . he threatened to kill sonny 's family and everyone he cared about . [ scene_break ] sonny : i tell trevor i know he 's running the zacchara mob , 20 minutes later my warehouse is on fire -- that 's not a coincidence . kate : it 's just bizarre , sonny . trevor is part of a very elite group of powerbrokers . why would he jeopardize that to -- to run -- sorry -- a criminal enterprise ? sonny : zacchara probably did something years ago , and trevor had to clean up the mess . zacchara got crazy , and he started getting worse , so trevor got more involved in the business and he started to like it . kate : what is there to like , exactly , about danger and violence and the threat of years in prison ? sonny : money , influence , the power of life and death . he probably got , you know , really into the business , and it started to grow and grow . he started -- it was like an addiction , and he got hooked like a lot of people do . he was the man , he makes decisions on whether you live or die , he turns over profits , and you know what the -- the craziest thing is -- that he gets away with it . kate : sonny , is that -- is that why you became a criminal -- because you like to get away with it ? sonny : i have a lot of reasons and i have no reasons . i did n't finish school because i did n't want to -- i did n't want to , you know , become -- not that it 's a bad thing -- a plumber or a mechanic . i wanted to wear a suit and have more money than you could ever spend . but most important , i wanted power , because i 'd been helpless in my life , and i would rather die . kate : i understand ambition . i built my whole life around it , and i realize that there are compromises that you have to make . when you start talking about living and dying like they 're numbers on a spreadsheet , you just -- you lose me . sonny : it 's a business . sometimes you have to , you know -- the chances you pay is you die , you know , and -- and you got to take the lives of your enemies . and , you know , sometimes the -- sometimes the viol overwhelms you and you feel like drowning . and you -- sometimes you -- you lose your mind . kate : like anthony zacchara . sonny : or like me . [ scene_break ] jason : bernie says the cops are at the other warehouses . can you pull up the surveillance ? spinelli : um , stone cold , might you elaborate on what you were talking about before the bernificent one called -- namely , zacchara 's killing everyone that mr. corinthos cares about ? jason : zacchara is -- is confined to his compound . spinelli : yeah , we most earnestly hope . jason : we know that it 's getting dangerous , and i 'm a target . if you -if you want out , spinelli , now is a good time to get out . spinelli : no , the grasshopper will remain by his master 's side . i would -- i would never abandon you in your hour of need . [ knock on door ] carly : i totally blew it with lulu , i did . i ca n't believe i was so clueless and stupid . why did n't i see this coming ? spinelli : what -- see -- see what coming ? is the blond one in jeopardy ? carly : no -- well , yeah , i mean , she could be . jason : well , what happened ? carly : lulu came to me and told me that logan broke up with her , that he was being all noble and told her that he was n't good enough for her -- yada , yada , yada -- and i told her that logan was playing her . she got highly defensive - how can i blame her ? i mean , i would react the exact same way if someone i trusted told me they doubted my instincts . spinelli : okay , what -- what has the blond one done ? carly : well , she 's probably gone after the slimeball . you need to go talk to her , jason . jason : me -- me ? why me ? carly : because you 're levelheaded , she trusts you , and she 'll listen to you . jason : one of our warehouses are on fire -- ca n't do this now . carly : did the zaccharas do this ? jason : i mean , i think so . but i 'm not sure . [ scene_break ] jerry : ooh , something or someone has put the pink back in your cheeks , darling . sam : i said get out . jerry : well , you clearly seemed to have enjoyed your meeting with lucky -- such a shame he had to leave . it was an explosion on pier 22 , was n't it ? sam : you 're the one who did it ? jerry : oh , blowing up a warehouse to lure lucky away from your side -- it seems a bit extreme , does n't it ? nonetheless , it worked . sam : you are twisted . jerry : moi ? never . nevertheless , i 'm intent on continuing our agreement -- though , i have to warn you , there 's a slight change in our terms . sam : what change ? jerry : it 's just a little something to ensure i get what i want . [ scene_break ] sonny : he never mentioned it , but i know that ric told you i was bipolar . kate : ric is a very troubled man . sonny : right . kate : it 's true , sonny . when i met ric in the park to try to get him to drop the first round of reckless driving -- i -- oh , my god , he mentioned that you were bipolar , and i suggested i could make it public . sonny : would you have -- would you have gone through with it ? that 's all i 'm asking . kate : no , sonny . i was lying my head off . i was -- i was trying to tell him what i thought he wanted to hear . it did n't work , as you know . and i was ashamed that i -- that i even suggested the possibility . and you know what , sonny ? if you think that i consider your illness as some sort of defect , you 're wrong . sonny : i did . for a long time . and in some ways , i still do . i mean , you know , when we were younger , i mean , you 'd always tell me that i was moody , right ? kate : yes . sonny : right . kate : i thought you were trying to act mysterious . sonny : that 's how i dealt with things . i do n't know if you know this , but sometimes -- whew -- i would get so angry that i did not know what i was doing . i would smash something , or i 'd beat the hell out of some guy . but i 'd always tell myself , `` hey , you know what ? people -- people get angry all the time , people lose their temper . `` and -- and then a -- a friend of mine died , and i went into , like , this -- this gray zone and i -- i did n't -- i could n't feel anything , i could n't -- i did n't care . but that passed , right ? sonny : then my first wife was killed , and i completely lost it . and i did n't know it at the time , but i was having a breakdown . kate : tell me that you got help . sonny : well , jason would -- you know , he 'd -- he 'd keep people away from me and he 'd pick up the glass that i would break , and then -- but , you know , i mean , i just felt like there was something wrong with me , like i was weak . kate : you must 've felt alone . sonny : a lot of times i -- i wanted to kill myself , you know ? but then , you know , someone told me that i was sick , that i was mentally ill . i did not want to hear it because i did n't want to be defective . kate : it 's a chemical imbalance , sonny . it 's not your fault , just like having brown eyes or dimples . sonny : oh , you 've done your research . kate : we did a piece on it in the magazine a few years ago and one of my best friends back in the city is diagnosed with bipolar . she said it was a relief to find out , to find out that there was a cause and a treatment for the way that she felt and the things she did . sonny : well , the medicine keeps me -- keeps me balanced , keeps me from having a breakdown , or , you know , going too high or too low into the darkness , but it has n't changed who i am . if i want something , i go after it . and that can drive you crazy in a different way , you know ? [ scene_break ] trevor : so how 's anthony doing ? well , that wo n't happen as long as johnny stays put . good , listen to me . we got to do something about sonny corinthos before he goes public with anthony 's condition . well , lure him to a place where he 's vulnerable . and then put that animal down -- permanently . [ scene_break ] sonny : you know , when i went to see zacchara , i thought i was meeting an enemy , somebody i could reason with , negotiate with , somebody who understood the threat of violence and use it to his advantage -- like i do . but he is totally insane . one minute he 's screaming threats , the next minute he 's talking about roses . i got to tell you something -- you got to listen to this -- he takes out a gun , right ? and he forces me to play russian roulette , and -- i had -- in that second , i had two thoughts . one -- i do n't want to die , okay ? you know , how stupid it was that i miscalculated walking in on a madman . and the second was watching him , thinking that could be me in 20 years . kate : no . no , sonny , never . sonny : you know , hey , when you have too much power , too much -- it distorts things . you -- you know , you do n't live like other people live , you 're a -- you 're a puppet master and you 're pulling all the strings , making all the decisions . nobody should be in that position . kate : look , i do n't know anthony zacchara , nor do i want to , but i am sure that you are nothing like him . sonny : that 's sweet . but i got to tell you . i see this man , he 's in this -- he 's in this house , and he 's a prisoner , destroyed by his own viciousness and greed . and i -- i just felt like that , you know , that could easily be me . if i lost one person too many , if i -- if i stop pretending there are lines i wo n't cross . kate : i 'm not going to justify your business . it 's not right or defendable on any level . but i knew you , sonny , before you got into that business . i knew you when you were the moody boy with a beautiful smile . and i know you have a conscience . i know that there are lines that you wo n't cross .

tracy : are you really blaming this bender on me ? luke : we were at a crossroads . this thing could have gone either way , and then you took up my challenge . you said you 'd travel the world with me . we 'd just go out there in the wind together , and maybe we 'd find a whole new direction . tracy : new bars , new floozies , new direction ? luke : yeah , well , we were out there for one week , and you split and took all my cash . tracy : i do n't like pub crawls . luke : there was the whole world there in front of us , all those possibilities , and then you quit on me . tracy : i do n't -- i do n't like being the ball - and - chain around your neck . luke : when did i ever say that ? tracy : you did n't have to say it . i could see you wanted to be free . luke : do n't you get it ? i 'll never be free of you , and that 's the way i like it . [ scene_break ] lulu : i mean , i know it sounds crazy to say that it 's a good thing that i 'm getting threatening notes , but it means that i might not actually be crazy . [ scene_break ] trevor : look , i ca n't answer your questions right now . i 'm leaving the courthouse , so i 'll talk to you soon . spinelli : the jackal shall follow darth lansing like a second shadow until he determines what the evil one is up to . maxie : not so fast . [ scene_break ] nikolas : carly , it 's not that hard to figure out . he brought that woman here just to make you jealous . carly : no , i play those games . jax does n't . this is about something else . [ scene_break ] jax : i have a good feeling about you . you 're quick , and you 're ruthless . lawyer : but you like that in a woman ? jax : i like it in a lawyer . did you get a chance to look over the papers i sent you ? lawyer : it 's ambitious and risky , but if you want to buy spoon island out from under mr. cassadine , more power to you . jax : yeah , could n't happen to a nicer guy . lawyer : what did he do to you ? [ scene_break ] carly : jax 's body language is a dead giveaway . see , when he flirts , he leans in for more intimacy , or he leans back so he can draw you in . he 's not doing either . this is all business . [ scene_break ] olivia : i know , dante . yeah , what mother would n't love a son who calls his mother all the time , but you 're going overboard , okay ? i 'm in the hospital with your cousin connie . i 'm not out skydiving . yes , i know . i do n't take candy from strangers , and i stay away from the bad guys . yes , especially sonny corinthos . yeah . dante says hi . kate : hi , dante . olivia : she says hi . he 's looking forward to meeting you very soon . so is she . okay , sweetie , i love you too . good night . kate : that 's amazing . olivia : what ? the way he calls me all the time ? kate : no , how you never even once hinted that sonny is his father . [ scene_break ] claudia : daddy offered to turn over the entire organization to sonny . all he wants is a guarantee of sonny 's loyalty . jason : just get to the point . claudia : my father wants sonny to marry me so we all become family . jason : it 's not going to happen . claudia : well , think about it this way . sonny 's addicted to power , and you wo n't give it to him . he needs it bad . he needs it to pay karpov back for humiliating him . he needs it to show himself and everyone who crosses him that he 's untouchable . he needs the power . he needs the influence . he needs the money , and most importantly , he needs the fear in his enemy 's faces . so if that 's the only way to get his fix , he may hate being married to me , but sooner or later he 'll agree , and you know it . jason : then why are you here ? claudia : because there 's one way to stop this deal from happening and to stop the war that it will bring , and that is to make me unavailable to marry sonny . marry me yourself . [ scene_break ] spinelli : maximista is most confusing . you wish me to follow darth lansing , but at my first opportunity , you delayed me . maxie : well , because the last time you helped lulu you ended up in a straitjacket , and this time you could end up wearing cement shoes . i 'm just not going to have you risk your life until we have a real reason trevor would be messing with lulu . [ scene_break ] lulu : the whole time that i imagined you awake , guiding me through everything , i was relying on you to be my strength , and now i realize that i have to depend on myself , which is what you tried to teach me , even if you were only in my head . but what i do know is , i 'm getting out of shadybrook . i would give anything to take you with me . [ scene_break ] tracy : thank you . i 'm supposed to believe you 're crying in your beer because you missed me ? luke : yeah , and i 'm supposed to believe that you 're just here because lulu needs me ? tracy : if you missed me so much , you could have emailed , phoned , or sent me one of those cute little shrunken heads . luke : have you checked your messages lately ? maybe your old man has tried to contact us while we were in the slammer . maybe he 's got me free to come back across the border . tracy : no calls . luke : oh , hell . tracy : and i do n't believe your sudden rush of romance . i think you 're just covering because i caught up with you . luke : pumpkin . popsicle . poopsie , come on . you think that i 'm just taking advantage of you because of your undying devotion ? tracy : actually , i think you 're an opportunist without conscience and that i was a fool to ever express anything but contempt . luke : well , that 's just your guilt talking . tracy : my guilt ? i 'm not the one sitting south of the border , swilling tequila and flirting with floozies . luke : i had a great adventure planned for us , and you bailed on me , wife . [ scene_break ] jax : my wife and i are going through a divorce . cassadine is using that to buy into this hotel . lawyer : does your soon - to - be ex - wife care that she 's being used ? jax : dangling this hotel in front of cassadine is her way of getting my attention . lawyer : i can see this might get complicated . jax : i do n't like cassadine using carly as leverage , and this puts the advantage back in my court . lawyer : i 'll draw up the papers for your offer on the property . it 'll be ready for your signature within the hour . jax : thank you . lawyer : this is probably out of line , but as a divorcee , i can tell you that things would be so much better for you if you tried running the hotel with carly instead of her life . [ scene_break ] nikolas : now , this is just an observation , but if you can tell yourself that jax is up to something nefarious , at least you can believe you still have the potential . carly : if we 're going to have a successful business relationship , you need to trust my instincts . [ scene_break ] jax : thank you very much . lawyer : certainly . [ scene_break ] nikolas : and what do your instincts tell you right now ? carly : that jax is up to no good , and it 's aimed at us .

[ scene_break ] claudia : if i become the 25th mrs. sonny corinthos and sonny corinthos takes over the zacchara organization , you are headed for a war with your former best friend . the only way to stop that is to blow this deal between my father and sonny . the only way to do that is for you to marry me yourself . jason : you want to get married ? let 's do it , let 's go . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . maxie : hi , sorry , we need to talk to you . spinelli : yeah , new suspicions have arisen surrounding the devious note- writer . lulu : really ? come in , come in , guys . maxie : no , no , no , let 's just go to your room . lulu : why ? do you guys feel weird around my mom ? maxie : yes . spinelli : not at all . lulu : it 's -- it 's okay . i mean , it 's not -- she 's -- it 's kind of like she 's sleeping . just come in . it 's fine . so , mom , spinelli 's here . he 's the friend that i told you about . he 's -- we 've been friends since the day we met . spinelli : greetings , mater of the fair one . maxie : she 's not deaf . spinelli : oh . maxie : not that she could understand you if she could hear you , because she ca n't . can she ? lulu : no one knows for sure . mom , maxie is also here . she 's the last person i ever imagined calling my friend . maxie : hi , mrs. spencer , it 's me , maxie jones . you would remember me if you could remember anything . okay , well , we really just wanted to talk to you , lulu , so spinelli , tell her . spinelli : um , would trevor be so dastardly as to gaslight you ? lulu : trevor ? well , he always hated the idea of me and johnny . he told johnny that i was a liability . spinelli : okay , then we must hasten to pick up the dark one 's trail and secure proof . lulu : what proof ? spinelli : i 'll know when i see it . lulu : see ? look at all the help i have . [ scene_break ] tracy : two days on the road , and i was done . i require indoor plumbing and edible food . room service , even . i 'm more high - maintenance than you , so i came home , where the plumbing works and the food is in fact edible . no hidden agenda . luke : well , i just wanted us to find something out on the road there together that was about us . tracy : i do n't know what you see when you look in the mirror . i 'm a realist . luke : that 's why we 're a doomed pair . what a great team . what a great team . [ scene_break ] sonny : so what , now you 're listening at keyholes like your great aunt theresa ? olivia : what ? listen , you 're talking out in the hallway . sonny : well , i mean -- olivia : i hear the words `` marry claudia zacchara . `` what , i pay attention . and i did get an earful . let me see if i get this . you want revenge on this karpov guy for getting connie shot . you ca n't do it on your own . this zacchara is happy to lend you some muscle , but you got to slip a ring on the daughter 's finger . how 's that ? sonny : mm - hmm . olivia : i 've met this girl , sonny . she is a bitch , and she is a certifiable wacko , and those are the good qualities . sonny : mm - hmm . olivia : so you just be real sure that this power you 're going after is worth what you got to do to get it . [ scene_break ] claudia : you realize this is going to cost you , right ? i mean , if we 're getting married , you 're going to actually have to talk to me sometimes . eye contact , that 's progress , but i want -- i want actual conversation . jason : why ? claudia : because we 're getting married . that means for the foreseeable future , we 're going to be spending a lot of time together . jason : no . claudia : i see . so you 're going to marry me so that sonny ca n't , and then you 're going to send me back to my apartment to live , or wherever else i want to go , even italy if i want ? jason : it 's your life . you get to live where you want to live . claudia : as long as it 's not with you . i spent most of my life as a commodity . anthony zacchara 's only daughter , a useful bargaining chip , sent away until i was needed . well , husband to be , guess what ? i 'm needed now . i 'm needed by my father . i 'm needed by sonny . i 'm sure as hell needed by you . so if we 're going to do this , you 're going to have to work with me . you 're going to have to change your attitude and work with me instead of against me . and why do n't you use this time to convince me why i should be marrying you instead of sonny ? [ scene_break ] sonny : please tell me you did n't spill your guts to kate about what you just heard . olivia : would you give me some credit ? sonny , please , like i 'm going to tell my cousin who 's recovering from a gunshot wound , `` oh , by the way , they guy you were about to marry , he 's going to marry some crazy mob witch instead . `` please . sonny : i turned zacchara down . marrying claudia is ridiculous , too high a price to pay . besides , there 's only one person that i love , one person that i want to marry , and that 's your cousin kate . olivia : bull , sonny . sonny : bull , why ? olivia : you do n't give up that easy , or maybe -- maybe you forgot about tommy trombini . you remember him ? i was supposed to go out with you on new year 's eve . sonny : right . olivia : tommy trombini asked me out . he saw you walking down the street ; he clipped you in the ribs . remember what you did ? sonny : trombini was a thug . olivia : you remember what you did ? sonny : so what , who cares ? olivia : you waited outside his house . you left me freezing my ass off outside the rialto . you waited outside his house so you could jump him and knock his front teeth out . sonny : what has that got to do with anything ? olivia : because no one gets away with hurting you , sonny . okay , maybe you 're still going to church on sunday , but payback is your true religion . okay , i get it . maybe you want to avenge my cousin getting shot . but what you really want -- you want to be the guy that 's in charge . you want to be the guy that everyone respects and everyone fears , and if you got to marry this claudia to get that , i got no doubt that 's what you 're going to do . [ scene_break ] claudia : you know , so far i 'm not -- i 'm not hearing any of the reasons why i should be your wife . in fact , i 'm not hearing anything at all from you except for silence , and i think -- i think i made it clear that i 'm not -- i do n't have any intention of marrying somebody who refuses to even speak to me . jason : you 're the one who wanted to get married . do you want to get married ? claudia : i 'm considering my options . look , daddy does n't trust sonny , but he needs him for something , obviously , or he never would have offered sonny control of the entire zacchara organization . and sonny -- he wants karpov dead , right ? but i think you and i can both agree that 's just an excuse , because sonny made a huge mistake when he turned over power of his entire organization to you . he wants to run the zacchara organization so bad that he can taste it . but fine , what happens when he 's in charge ? what 's to stop him from taking over completely ? nothing , except family loyalty , of course . if he 's married to me , sonny becomes a zacchara . our interests become his , and then you 're the odd man out . which is why you should really be telling me why i 'm better off being married to you than sonny . jason : who says you have to marry anyone ? claudia : that 's an excellent point . i could -- i could run away . i could change my name , dye my hair , start over someplace totally new as somebody completely different . maybe everybody would be better off if i did . [ scene_break ] carly : you 're jax 's assistant . it 's your job to know who -- okay , i need to know who he has on the calendar so i do n't duplicate the same hotel business . i 'll take it up with jax . hmm . nikolas : okay , so two people who clearly love each other and need to be in each other 's lives but wo n't just give it up and simply be together resort to games and power plays . is that a fair estimation ? carly : i would take him back in a second . he 's the one fighting this , not me . nikolas : well , i 'm hoping you 're not just going to run back into his arms and cut me out of this deal here . [ scene_break ] trevor : you take your sweet time , do n't you ? johnny : well , two meetings with you in one day is overkill . trevor : back off that attitude , kid . i was out at shadybrook , and we need to talk about lulu . [ scene_break ] maxie : trevor 's with johnny . spinelli : jackal p.i . 's cell - phone tracking capability proves accurate once more . maxie : okay , well , how are we going to find out if trevor 's the one blackmailing lulu ? [ scene_break ] lulu : ah , it 's so hard writing down what i feel . they ask me to write down my feelings , but when i read it , it 's just -- it 's so stupid . spinelli gave me a poetry book . maybe i could get some inspiration from that . i could read it to you , too . i 'll be right back . [ scene_break ] spinelli : jackal , p.i . and his trusty colleague maximista must infiltrate the general proximity of darth lansing without detection . maximista , undercover operations are not the right venue for cyber - chatting -- maxie : spinelli , give me a second . i 'm trying to confirm the flowers for patrick and robin 's wedding . spinelli : okay , lulu 's life is -- maxie : i want to help lulu as much as you do , but an investigation 's a little more time intensive than a simple breakout . spinelli : yeah , but she 's being menaced -- maxie : yeah , she 's stuck in shadybrook and someone is sending her anonymous letters . it is awful . but it 's not like her life is at stake . spinelli : she 's very -- maxie : she seems to be doing a lot better since we tried to break her out . she 's been acting snotty and insufferable , basically back to her old self , which is why , as much as i want to help her , there is a deadline to this investigation . spinelli : there is ? maxie : at exactly 8 p.m. , unless lulu 's tied to some railroad tracks or dangling from a cliff , you and i are putting our rescue efforts on hold , and we 're going to focus on the wedding . spinelli : with all due respect to -- maxie : do n't try to talk me out of it , spinelli . lulu has a crisis every other month . patrick and robin are getting married once . we 're going to focus on them . spinelli : oh , come on . maxie : we have to wrap this up . we 're wasting time . [ scene_break ] carly : the problem i have with this deal is i still do n't get your motivation for wanting to buy into the metro court . nikolas : carly , i wish i had a practical explanation for wanting to buy this place , but i just -- i do n't . i do n't . i just want it . and the fact that it bothers jax makes me want it even more . carly : i think you miss emily . and i have to tell you that buying this hotel is n't going to fill that void . nikolas : yes . yeah , i 'm looking for a diversion . so ? carly : well , i go shopping when i 'm feeling down , you know ? i buy a pair of shoes , a purse . i 'm afraid that this hotel is a lot higher maintenance . nikolas : it 's -- that 's it , exactly . it 's about something new . i mean , do n't you think we should keep ourselves open to new experiences ? carly : i do . i just think that if you are looking for revenge against jax , that 's -- not here . nikolas : no , it 's about me getting what i want and not allowing anyone to get in my way . i mean , are n't -- in a way , we kind of using each other ? which is fine . i do n't have a problem with that . i 'm just -- carly : i -- nikolas : no , look . take all the time you need , okay ? [ scene_break ] trevor : lulu is in a tough situation . but you already know that . johnny : you do n't have any new information for me , i got no reason to stay . trevor : hey , hear me out . i 'm on your side . can you honestly look me in the eye and tell me that you think lulu is better off for having seen you ? johnny : she thinks so . trevor : lulu is not a doctor , john . look , i want you to contact this man . he was the doctor i brought in to analyze your father in his early stages of his illness . he 's going to be more realistic about lulu 's situation . spinelli : a - ha ! we are emissaries of the fair one . and we have just attained damning evidence as to your treasury , darth lansing . [ scene_break ] lulu : emily dickinson , walt whitman . i do n't know what kind of poetry you like . people wrote so beautifully about love . wanting it and losing it . did i tell you that johnny plays piano ? first time i heard him play , i always say , it was like seeing into his soul . i do n't know if i could ever be that brave expressing myself . no , i 'm not going to do this . i know you . you would not want me to cheat . no cribbing off of emily dickinson . i will find my own words . see ? i still feel you with me . i hope you feel me too , mom . i love you . good night . [ scene_break ] luke : senor , happy hour . getting a little dry over here . tracy : make it two . luke : oh , now , that 's what i like to hear . that 's wonderful . there 's nothing like a little debauchery to bond husband and wife . tracy : you know i have accepted you with all your faults , which are legion . including running away from home . meaning me . luke : oh , no , not you , sweetheart . never you . tracy : luke , whenever it gets too stifling for you , you create a drama to justify your skipping town . whoa . a lesser man would be dead if he treated his body the way you do . luke : but a lesser man would never have had as much fun as i 've had . tracy : on the road , away from me ? luke : no , you 're the most fun of all . tracy , you spoiled me for everyone else . other women bore the pants off me . unfortunate choice of words . with all of your scheming and nagging , you are utterly irresistible . [ scene_break ] claudia : have you ever tried to leave the mob ? jason : maybe once . actually , twice if you count -- claudia : what ? if you count what ? oh , come on . we 're on our way to get married . the very least you can do is share a few of the pertinent details of your -- your early childhood with me . so you were on your way to leave the mob , and then -- jason : and then the life i tried to make , it -- it did n't work . claudia : wow . insightful . what about the other time ? jason : i just went traveling . claudia : where ? jason : just places i read about in a book . claudia : what , wherever you wanted to go , whatever interested you ? jason : that was it . claudia : that must have amazing . go someplace , nobody knows who you are . you 're totally anonymous . nobody wants anything from you . nobody wants to fight you . but i do -- i mean , i noticed you came back . so why did you do that ? did you get lonely ? jason : i do n't know why . claudia : you mean you wo n't say . oh , maybe you really do n't -- you mean you really do n't know ? jason : no . claudia : i do n't -- i get the sense that you do n't spend a whole lot of time contemplating your emotional life . which is why you 're willing to marry me right now . jason : okay . i thought you were going to disappear . claudia : is that what this ride is about ? i mean , is that what this trip is about ? are we about to get married , or am i about to -- am i about to get a bullet in the back of the head ? because if i 'm out of the way , then my father and sonny do n't have any way of making an alliance -- jason : you do n't have to die . for them . all you have to do is leave . [ scene_break ] sonny : i see you again after 20 years , and somehow , you know more about what i 'm going to do than i do . olivia : i have n't forgotten , sonny . okay , i know you got slapped around as a kid , and you watched your mother get the same . and there was n't a damn thing that you could do about it except develop this great big , fat case of suppressed rage . see , i get it . i really do . i just do n't necessarily agree with how you handle it . sonny : how i handle it ? deke got what he deserved , that 's how i handle it . olivia : i 'm sure you say that about all the guys that gets what 's coming to them . like this karpov guy . this guy slapped your face when he had connie shot on your wedding day , okay ? sonny : mm - hmm . olivia : and now you 're angry . and you feel helpless all over again , and you 're determined to get even , no matter what it costs you . sonny : i 'm not going to marry claudia zacchara . olivia : yeah , you will if you want to get back in the mob , you will . sonny : you do n't get it . you do n't have a clue what 's going on here . kate 's a target . i 'm a target . so i 'm going to do what i have to do to protect us both . that 's it . olivia : sonny -- sonny : do n't do this . do n't -- olivia : do n't you play me for stupid and do n't you dare use my cousin as an excuse , okay ? this is about you . you want to get back in the mob because that 's what you 're good at . sonny : yes . olivia : okay ? i get it . but i got news for you . you ca n't have my cousin and the mob , too , okay ? especially not if you 're going to marry this woman . because i will tell you right now , there is no way in hell that connie is going to be your mistress . okay , so you get real honest with yourself and with connie . if you 're going back in , you say goodbye to her and you let her go . [ scene_break ] claudia : would you pay me to leave town ? jason : how much would you need ? claudia : i -- uh , running 's not an option for me . my brother tried to run once . i was n't living at home at the time , but johnny used to call me . and he said that my dad was really getting worse . and he could n't stand it anymore , so he was going to run away to this cousin of his mom 's . and i warned him not to try . i told him that daddy would find him and that he would be furious . but he did anyway , and sure enough , my father called two days later , furious , frantic , and he wanted to know where johnny was -- jason : and you told him ? claudia : my father found out . on his own . and he went and got johnny , and then he killed the cousin , and then he killed the cousin 's family . you know , as a warning to john not to try to run again , so all by way of saying that running is not an option for me . besides , i would n't leave my brother to deal with my father alone . jason : he seems capable of taking care of himself . claudia : my brother went through a lot worse hell than i did , because everything my father did was about john . all of it . all of the craziness and the insanity . the murdering , the lies . it was all about building this empire that he could leave to his son . and that is why my dad wants an alliance with sonny . you understand ? so that sonny can take you out , and johnny wo n't have to . that 's going to be the justice of the peace , so are we going to do this thing , or what ? [ scene_break ] trevor : what are you doing ? spinelli : i am conducting a handwriting comparison vis - à - vis the notes of terror being left for the fair one . trevor : notes . what is he talking about ? johnny : shut up , trevor . are you saying that the threatening notes lulu received are real ? maxie : see for yourself . we think trevor 's trying to mess with lulu 's head . trevor : what ? spinelli : it appears that jackal , p.i . and maximista have leapt to the wrong conclusion , as it were . lansing the elder 's penmanship does not match that of the threatening missives . maxie : wait , how is that possible ? we saw him there . he was in lulu 's room . spinelli : i do n't know . maybe -- perhaps the act of an accomplice . trevor : sorry would be nice . lulu was n't in her room when i tried to see her . look , i am trying to help her . so here , contact this doctor . but do n't be surprised when he tells you to stay away from her . for your own good luck . spinelli : jackal , p.i . is duly humiliated . johnny : look , i get that you two are trying to help lulu , but she wrote that note herself . spinelli : no . she would have to be possessed of multiple personalities to accomplish that task . maxie : i do n't care what you guys say . lulu is not that far gone . johnny : look , i 'll follow up on that one . spinelli : no , no . the jackal protests . this is my case -- our case -- johnny : i love lulu . and if someone 's out there trying to hurt her , i 'll take care of it . [ scene_break ] lulu : whoever was blackmailing me was in here , mom . they had to be . i found this note inside the notepad that i left on your bed . this person is just trying to mess with my head . they want me to go crazy . scott : just wanted you to feel some remorse . lulu : scott . of course it was you . you 're the only one who would want to torture me . scott : torture you ? what about my son ? lulu , he loved you and you killed him . [ scene_break ] carly : there you are . jax said you would be back and he asked me to take that for him . lawyer : i do n't think so . carly : really , because jax is in a meeting and he asked me to get that for him . lawyer : jax actually told me quite specifically that you 're the last person i should give this to . carly : i guess you 're out of your meeting . jax : gillian . carly . this is my lawyer , gillian blake . why do n't you take a seat ? i 'll be right with you . gillian : sure . jax : nice try . carly : what do you need a lawyer for ? jax : you never know when one might come in handy . carly : whatever it is , do n't do it . please do n't do it . jax : you 'll thank me for it later . carly : why are we playing these games ? jax : what are you talking about ? you 're the one who started this when you brought cassadine into the picture . i 'm just fighting back . i do n't like doing this , but i intend to win .

michael : why does everybody want to rehash the year i was comatose ? was n't it enough just living through it ? besides , jerry 's long gone . it does n't matter what he said . look , if you want to talk about this , you need to tell me who you blame for my shooting . jax : well , that 's easy -- sonny . [ scene_break ] [ gunshot ] sonny : michael ! claudia : sonny , what 's going on ? what happened ? sonny : oh . nothing . it 's just , uh -- [ sighs ] just having a bad dream . claudia : tell me about it . please . sonny : no . oh , man . hold on . [ sighs ] i was back there at the warehouse , and i was watching my son hit the ground with a bullet in his brain . [ scene_break ] ian : why should i take the risk ? he 's a major player . if it goes wrong , i 'm a dead man . what kind of compensation ? fine , but i want guarantees . jason : we need to know the person on the other end of that call . spinelli : i 'll do my best , but the equipment dr. devlin used to record his calls -- jason : okay . just do what you can . [ sighs ] this is it . sam : maybe . jason : what do you mean , maybe ? you heard . you heard risk and compensation . he said a major player , devlin 's a dead man if things go wrong . what else could he be talking about except a hit on sonny ? sam : devlin was involved in a lot of illegal activity . he could have been talking about anything to anybody . jason : except it 's not anybody . it 's claudia . i would bet my life on that . spinelli : okay . i think i 've got something . [ clicks ] ian : i agree to this , i expect you to have my back . claudia : done . jason : that 's claudia . [ scene_break ] jax : there 's no way you would knowingly gamble with your brother 's life the way sonny did with yours . michael : look , i get that you hate my dad . you 'd probably blame him for the economy if you could figure out how , but you 're wrong about him . you know , if he thinks that it 's dangerous for us to be someplace , he does n't let us go . jax : yeah , but he does n't always know , does he ? he 's just guessing . [ michael scoffs ] [ door opens ] carly : hey . i thought we could open this together . it 's from your mom . everything okay ? jax : yeah . i was just telling michael who i blame for his shooting . he wanted to know , so i told him the truth . carly : oh . michael : i assume that you blame dad , too ? carly : well , you know what , michael ? um -- i was so terrified and angry those first few months , i blamed anyone i passed in the street , but no one more than myself . but we got you back , and you 're healthy , and you 're handsome , and you 're trying to get your life together , and that 's wonderful . it 's so great . and i do n't want to miss out on all that joy because of something we ca n't change . and besides , if you want to know who i blame for your shooting , it 's the bastard who pulled the trigger , and he 's already dead . [ scene_break ] sonny : hey , thanks . claudia : mm - him . sonny : any calls while i was asleep ? claudia : nothing . sonny : we should be hearing from our south american partner . claudia : minus one mo verde , who currently sleeps with the fishes . sonny : unless he talked his way out of it , 'cause he could be pretty slick . claudia : yeah . i doubt it . you did n't leave the council in a very conciliatory mood , did you ? sonny : you look nice . claudia : thank you . i do n't know . maybe you could take me somewhere , show me off a little bit . we are in puerto rico , the city of excitement and fun and lights , and we do have something to celebrate , unless you really -- unless you 're not up for it . sonny : i know what brought it on . claudia : the dream ? sonny : tonight was a big win for me , and that 's when it usually happens . the guilt kicks in , and i relive it in slow motion so i do n't miss one single detail . i could actually feel the weight of michael 's head in my hands . the blood , warm , vital . and i 'm -- in a second , i can see that blank look on his face , and my son is just -- [ sighs ] oh , boy . he 's just lying there on the ground , gone . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] olivia : connie , hold your horses . johnny : thanks . olivia : shh . [ olivia sighs ] olivia : you know , it really is a little bit late for visitors , and i 'm actually pretty tired . kate : well , i 'm not surprised . keeping a life - altering secret from someone you love really does take a toll . olivia : really ? are we going to talk about this -- kate : i have never known you to be willfully blind , olivia , but you no longer have that luxury . if you do n't take your head out of the sand and deal with this disaster , someone is going to end up seriously dead , and i know you do n't want that to be your son . [ scene_break ] lulu : i do n't understand . i thought your father 's identity was a mystery , even to your mother . dominic : true , but i knew enough of her story to launch an investigation . she , uh , fell in with an older crowd . she was doing a lot of drinking , a lot of sexual freedom , big point of rebellion . yeah . that phase in her life is not too clear , if you catch my drift . lulu : wow . [ chuckles ] dominic : but yeah . she never used it as , like , a glorifying thing . she -- it was like an object lesson , an example of something i should n't do . she always said she had no regrets . i mean , how could she ? look what she got . [ lulu laughs ] dominic : so anyway , i started asking around , talked to some of her girlfriends , they mentioned some names of a few guys they knew she was involved with , so i tracked them down . lulu : how enterprising . i mean , how old were you ? dominic : oh , 14 , around there . yeah . one of the guys died in a car accident . the other 2 left the neighborhood , but they did n't go far . most people do n't . so i surveilled them . lulu : surveilled . dominic : uh -- yeah . i used to talk in those terms back then , like i was some kind of private investigator or something . so anyway , i was sitting outside this guy 's house watching him come and go . cute little bungalow , nothing fancy , but , you know , a step up . pretty wife , 3 kids . complete . so , yeah . no room for me . so i left it alone . [ scene_break ] jason : okay . come on . i need more . spinelli : well , unfortunately , there is no more . as i previously indicated , devlin recorded his calls on rudimentary equipment . frankly , i 'm constantly surprised at -- jason : okay , spinelli , i know that this is claudia , so how do we prove that ? spinelli : um , perhaps stone cold is n't listening , or maybe i 'm just not saying what he wants to hear . there are n't enough words to extrapolate a voice -- jason : okay . i 'm not going to accept that , so you need to loop it , extend it -- you need to do whatever it takes to match that woman 's voice to claudia , now . spinelli : i 'm sorry , but is stone cold asking me to frame mr. sir 's wife for a crime that we ca n't prove she committed ? jason : are you kid -- she committed it . she ordered the hit . it went wrong . michael got shot . what 's the problem here ? spinelli : the problem is , gut instinct does not constitute real proof . and -- tailoring evidence to support what is but a theory is most dishonorable . if that is , indeed , what you 're asking me to do , i 'm sorry , but i find it alarming . jason : when does claudia start to pay for what she 's done ? never ? spinelli : with all due respect , stone cold 's hatred for vixenella is clouding his judgment , clearly evidenced by what you 're asking me to do . maybe you just need to step back and think about that . [ scene_break ] lulu : you did n't approach him ? dominic : nope . lulu : i mean , how could you just walk away , after all that effort you made trying to find him ? dominic : what was i supposed to do , knock on his door and say , `` hey , i 'm the son you never knew you had with the woman you were too drunk or high to remember `` ? he had a family . they were happy . i was n't going to drop a bomb on their lives just to figure out who i really am . it did n't seem like a fair trade - off . lulu : maybe he would have been happy to see you . [ dominic grunts ] lulu : well , my dad was with ethan , and trust me , nobody expected that . i mean , are you sure that this guy was , in fact , your father ? dominic : short of a dna test , yeah . i mean , the odds are pretty good . i look like him . his sons could be my brothers , the sister had the same hair as me . you know , if anything , i realized that if he was n't that particular guy , my dad would be just like him , just a regular dude -- life , family , bills , sunday picnics , bowling buddies , trying to remember to pay attention to the wife . [ lulu chuckles ] dominic : and i put it down right there and then . never looked back . lulu : i 'm having a really scary thought . it 's entirely possible that you might be deeper than i thought . dominic : i told you . lulu : i think i should go before i get too excited about this . dominic : look , what 's it going to take to have more than cider with you ? lulu : oh , i have n't decided , but keep trying . i 'll let you know when you get it right . [ dominic sighs ] [ scene_break ] claudia : sonny , what happened to michael is awful . sonny : do n't -- claudia : but it 's not your fault -- sonny : do n't try to take away my guilt . it 's mine to carry for the rest of my life . i earned it . i own it . watching your son get shot rips a hole in your gut worse than any bullet could . and then , there 's nights like this where i can almost reach out and touch my own power . it 's undeniable , the rush that i get , and it feeds me . and if i 'm not careful , my ego starts telling me , `` hey , you know what ? this life is n't that bad after all . `` but i ca n't be so smug to excuse and justify who i am and what i do , so when i start feeling that power and that rush , i just remember what happened to michael and my part in it , and suddenly , i do n't feel good about myself anymore , as it should be . [ scene_break ] spinelli : to this day , i 've uncovered no hard evidence that corroborates your belief that claudia has anything to do with michael 's shooting , yet you continue to ascribe evil intent . why ? jason : because claudia is evil . she got michael shot and turned around and married his father . spinelli : vixenella is undeniably dark and damaged , but that 's not all that she is . i mean , she 's been kind to me , and she shows genuine affection -- jason : oh , i ca n't even believe that you 're falling for this . that 's an act . that 's why she gets away with stuff , spinelli . spinelli : or the answer is simple , and she 's innocent . okay . i 'm worried for my friend . i have never seen you so relentless in an unjustified attack . jason : claudia 's guilty . spinelli : what are you basing that supposed knowledge on , other than intense personal dislike -- jason : why do n't you stop psychoanalyzing me and help me prove what i already know to be true ? spinelli : i stand ready to serve , as always , and i will provide appropriate cyber assistance , but i am not going to frame claudia . jason : fine . that 's fine . i do n't need your help . you can just leave . spinelli : mere disagreement -- jason : i said go ! jason : i 'm sorry . sam : no . you 're angry because you think spinelli may be right . [ scene_break ] claudia : i get what you 're saying . you gave up a part of yourself to survive in this business , and it 's not like a quarter that somebody drops on the street . you ca n't just pick it back up and put it in your pocket . you have to find a way to deal with the trade - offs , even when they 're awful , 'cause the one thing that we all share , one fact in all of our lives , is there 's no exit door . so , you find a way to deal with it . and certainly , it comes with regret . but that 's what you got to do , because at the end of the day , there 's no other way . i mean , do you think it 's good for michael ? you honestly think that it 's in his best interest that you punish yourself every single day ? 'cause i 've talked to him , and he wants to move on . he wants to leave the past behind him . how 's he supposed to do that when his father is bludgeoning himself with it every day ? sonny : a lot of people think i should never have encouraged a relationship with my children in the first place and that i should just stay away . claudia : how 'd that work out for kristina ? sonny : not very good . claudia : yeah . it breaks my heart , it really does , to see you missing out on so much valuable time , so many important memories and moments because you ca n't get over what happened . the end -- i mean , your kids , they love you , and they accept you , so you got to find some way to , i do n't know , come to terms , find peace in yourself . just love them back . [ scene_break ] kristina : have you seen a guy who could have been waiting for someone -- tall , dark , a little older than me ? dominic : you mean the guy you were hanging in the shadows with at maxie and spinelli 's reception ? kristina : kiefer , my boyfriend . we were supposed to meet here . dominic : have n't seen him . kristina : i know i 'm a little late , but i thought he 'd at least wait for me . dominic : you know , maybe he 's late , too . do n't worry about it . kristina : no text , nothing . dominic : well , let 's go talk to mike . maybe he left a note or something . kristina : yeah , he 's not the type . dominic : well , what type is he ? kristina : can i ask you something ? dominic : yeah . sure . kristina : but be honest , okay ? i can take it . is it true that guys will do anything , even pretend to love you , just so they can have sex with you , and then once you do , they forget about you ? [ scene_break ] olivia : is that some kind of threat ? if i do n't tell dante that sonny 's his father , you 're going to step in and do it for me ? great . that 's a great way to be supportive , connie . kate : excuse me . i have supported you all of these years , and now , the circumstances have changed . olivia , you need to adapt . you need to tell dante the truth . he 'll realize he 's swimming in conflict of interest . he 'll quit the case . he 'll go home . and no one will end up shot . olivia : oh , my god . kate : that is a really , really good outcome , olivia . olivia : do you have any idea how insulting you are right now ? [ kate scoffs ] olivia : do you think i have n't spent months pulling my hair out trying to figure out a way to get my kid off this case ? you think he 's going to find out that sonny is his father -- he 's just going to pack his bag , he 's going to go slinking home ? he 's going to go right to sonny . he 's going to confront him . and once sonny knows , he will never , ever let dante go . never . and you know that . kate : the bottom line is , they deserve to know the truth about each other . olivia : that is not your decision to make ! sonny is -- he 's got this mob- running thing down to a science , all right ? i know this because he has n't been caught yet , okay ? eventually , the police , they 're going to get sick of chasing after him . they 're going to give up . they 're going to pull dante off the case , and they 're going to look for somebody else . nobody ever has to know anything . kate : huh . and i 'm the one people call selfish . olivia : what in the hell is that supposed to mean ? kate : you do n't want to tarnish your image . olivia : oh , excuse me ? kate : yeah . i think that you 're afraid that if sonny and dante know the truth , they 'll look at you in a different light . so all of this really is n't about what 's best for your son . [ olivia sighs ] kate : it 's all about what 's best for you . you know , olivia ? just forget it . [ scene_break ] robin : ugh . okay . we just went through all of ian devlin 's patient files . patrick : every cd , dvd , audio recording . no trace of anything questionable . if ian was involved with anything , he did n't bring it here . jason : okay , i 'd like to look through the files myself if you do n't mind . you might have missed something . robin : it 's like this , jason . we really want to help you . we 're willing to bend the rules a little bit . but we can not ignore patients ' rights . i mean , these are confidential files . jason : robin , i do n't care about medical histories . patrick : but you 're looking through medical history . you understand our dilemma here . jason : no , i get that . but you do n't understand that i need to find the evidence that places the blame on the right people for michael 's shooting . robin : we do understand that you want to set the record straight on that , but you might also want to consider the answers you want may not be here . epiphany : oh . heh . i 'm not even going to ask . fyi , i finally convinced maintenance to do its job , and they 're going to be cleaning out the lost and found down in the staff locker room . so if you think you might have something down there , i suggest you go and claim it before it 's garbage . robin : thanks . patrick : my t - shirt . robin : what t - shirt ? patrick : my favorite t - shirt that i lost . maybe i left it on the bench and somebody -- jason : hey , devlin 's locker . what happened to the contents ? [ scene_break ] sam : this is a joke . nothing 's in here . patrick : well , if they were labeled , then they would n't be lost , would they ? sam : well , ca n't you tell me if anything came from ian 's locker ? patrick : you know what ? the last time i saw that t - shirt is before emma was born . we were on the bench for a little afternoon delight , and i think -- robin : i have no idea what you 're talking about . patrick : you do so . you hated that t - shirt . it reminded you of my wild , crazy college days . sam : wait , jason . get this . it 's just like the one that was in the basement . jason : here . oh . change of clothes . sam : aha . jason : cash . and -- ha . cds . sam : there you go . right around the time of michael 's shooting . perfect . patrick : well , i 'm really sorry you did n't find what you were looking for . patrick : okay . you do n't help me find that t - shirt , that means you did something really mean to it . robin : with any luck , it got ripped up and turned into rags . patrick : you better not be serious .

[ chuckling ] he 's so cute . what are you doing ? michael : he could n't have a better father than jason . i do n't know if i told you this or not , but when i was a baby , jason raised me . he , uh , actually named me . starr : he did ? how did that happen ? michael : well , uh , my mom was away . i needed a name . so he named me after his best friend . starr : who later became your father . michael : yeah , that 's right . starr : i ca n't tell you how nice it is to know someone who 's childhood was as convoluted as mine . michael : you know , my biological father was a.j . quartermaine -- jason 's brother . he and my mom did n't really get along , though . that 's actually an understatement . starr : yeah , the parents at each other 's throats . i 've been there and done that , too . michael : he actually wanted to take me away from my mom before i was even born . so my mom lied and said that i was jason 's . starr : and jason went along with it ? michael : yeah . the first year of my life , i lived with him . by then , the truth came out , but i guess jason felt responsible for me , so he 's always just been there , you know , taking care of me and helping me out with whatever i needed . you know , he 's never been convicted , but he took a plea bargain to get sent to prison with me . starr : he got himself sent to prison ? starr : hey , hey , hey . do n't do that to yourself , okay ? you need to stay hopeful for as long as you possibly can . sam : i 'm ready . sonny : you sure you 're up for this ? you 're not too upset ? sam : i 'm not upset . jason is fine . i 'm gon na find him . dante : can you tell me what happened ? tracy : joseph showed up here , sporting yet another gunshot wound . this time , though , he knew he was n't gon na make it . he did n't want help . he just wanted me to call his son . dante : did he say what happened to him ? trey : yeah . he said your father killed him . tracy : that is what he said . dante : well , that 's not what happened . trey : oh , so now you 're gon na cover up my father 's murder ? dante : it 's no cover - up , trey . you were at your apartment with sonny and michael and starr and two of the cops when the shots went off at the pier . trey : yeah . sonny left less than a minute after the cops did . so he must have seen my father and taken a shot at him . dante : we recovered a gun from the pier . we 're pretty sure it was your father 's . found some blood nearby , too . csi 's processing that . the theory is , is jason came upon joe trying to kill bernie abrahms , sonny 's accountant . kristina : oh , my god . bernie ? he 's worked with dad forever . is he okay ? dante : he did n't make it , kristina . i 'm sorry . trey : do n't think my father murdered him . kristina : what about jason ? why do n't you just question him ? dante : jason 's missing . bernie said he was shot and fell into the harbor . the divers are looking for him . trey : so you do n't even know what 's going on . dante : trey , we are working with what we have right now , which is eyewitness accounts . bernie told sonny . sonny told the cops . trey : okay , yeah , so eyewitnesses -- let 's see . one of them 's a mob boss . the other one 's a missing enforcer , and then a dead accountant ? kristina : trey ! jason is more than just my brother - in - law . i 've known him my whole life . trey : look , i 'm sorry . okay , my father -- my father just died , and now they 're trying to accuse him of another murder ? dante : that is why we 're conducting a thorough investigation . trey : the only eyewitness is jason , assuming he turns up alive , and he 'd never say a word against sonny . sonny : jason would n't want you to risk yourself . sam : you ca n't talk me out of this , sonny . i 'm gon na find him . sonny : sam , good luck . alexis : spinelli , you might want to bestow your blessings on them tomorrow . spinelli : you know , you 're right , as usual . i 'm -- i 'm sure the baby is asleep and acclimating himself to his surroundings . you know what ? we 'll celebrate here . come on . you know , i forgot to mention that ellie here was integral in unraveling the mystery of the infants ' identities . shawn : is that so ? spinelli : yes . she defied oppressive authority to run the very lab test that confirmed the blood type of the infant that sam mistakenly -- ellie : damian exaggerates . although my supervisor can be somewhat overbearing , i would n't go so far as to say she 's oppressive . and the truth is , she was actually out of the lab that day , so it made it relatively easy to perform the necessary tests and confirm that the infant in question was , indeed , a - b negative , which is a physical impossibility with parents who are both o - positive . spinelli : is n't she amazing ? shawn : [ chuckles ] alexis : she is , indeed . i 'm very impressed . ellie : doing my job . spinelli : and i 've been so preoccupied with matters at hand that i had no idea that things had settled so felicitously . thank you so much for clueing me in . lulu : i know what you 're thinking , and it 's my duty as your friend to ask you not to act on that -- maxie : i 'm just gon na say hello . lulu : -- even though i know you wo n't listen . maxie : i 'm just being polite . ellie , spinelli . ellie : maxie ! oh , my gosh ! it 's so good to see you . maxie : uh , it 's good to see you . you look like you 're having a great time . spinelli : well , we just -- we just got the most wonderful and astonishing news . jason and sam are back together , they have their baby , and they 're calling off their divorce . maxie : [ gasps ] that 's amazing . and , speaking of divorce [ clears throat ] jason and sam might not be getting one , but matt and i are . trey : do n't you think it 's possible that sonny sent jason to kill my dad in retaliation for what he did for kristina ? dante : i understand you 're upset , trey , and you want to jump to conclusions that sonny did this , but we do n't have all the answers yet . [ zipper closing ] excuse me , detective . we 're done . trey : [ crying ] dante : i am sorry for your loss . is there anything else you want to tell us about joe ? tracy : i 've told you everything i know . trey : my father 's everything they said he was -- a criminal , a murderer . [ sniffles ] and i - i do n't expect you to care about him after all the horrible things he did to you , but -- but he loved me . and to think that i 'll never see him again . kristina : he was still your father . starr : hush , little baby do n't say a word daddy 's gon na buy you a mockingbird and if that mockingbird wo n't sing daddy 's gon na buy you a diamond ring and if that diamond ring turns brass your daddy 's gon na buy you a looking glass so hush -- michael : i 'm gon na call my dad . starr : do n't you cry daddy loves you and so do i [ cell phone rings ] sonny : hey . michael : hey . did you hear anything about jason ? sonny : nothing . you 're gon na have to hold on a second , michael . michael : dad , you there ? starr : daddy 's gon na buy you a diamond ring and if that diamond ring turns brass sonny : did you find anything ? starr : daddy 's gon na buy you a looking glass so hush little baby do n't you cry daddy loves you and so do i

'cause i was looking for a pen . ava : a pen ? i 've never actually seen you write . do n't you text all your correspondence ? diane : okay , i 'm sure you crazy kids want to have this conversation in private , so , morgan , if you 'll just sign those annulment papers , i will be on my way . morgan : sure . good thing i got a pen . [ pen clicks ] diane : fantastic . all right . well , i just wish the two of you a ... lovely day . morgan : you tell me that derek wells is buying art from you and then i found out that he 's your silent partner ? ava : what goes on in my gallery , morgan , is none of your business . morgan : yeah , but you lied to me . why ? what 's going on between you guys ? carly : franco , open up or i 'm gon na use my key card . heather : you gave her a key ? franco : she owns the hotel ! she has a key to every room ! i -- i need you to hide . heather : no , what i need to do is have a little chat with your uninvited guest and make it clear to her that you 're not interested . franco : please do n't do that . please , heather . just let me handle this . the last thing i need is for anybody to see you here in this room . carly : that 's it , franco . fair warning . i 'm coming in . oh , my god . franco : hi , carly . carly : uh , you did n't open the door , so ... franco : yeah , i was in the shower . what are you doing here ? i thought you never wanted to see me again . carly : i do n't want to see ... you again . you know , i , um , your bill . it 's past due . you owe me money . so when am i getting my money ? franco : soon . really soon . i got a big show coming up . carly : this what you been working on ? franco : yep . these ... are my masterpieces . alexis : listen , according to duke , victor only had one daughter , olivia , and she 's dead . sam : so ? what if he had a mistress ? it 's possible he had a daughter with another woman . alexis : [ sighs ] from what i understand , he had a fondness for a lot of women . [ footsteps ] alexis : and there 's one now . lucy : hi . excuse me . i 'm here to see dr. kevin collins . to tell you the truth , i 'm a little early , but that 's okay . just do n't bug him if he 's got a patient or anything . i 'll just kind of wait , i guess . i 'm lucy coe . i 'm sure you 've heard of me . sonny : what do you know about julian jerome ? lazaro : oh , victor 's son ? i do n't think he 's your man . he 's ... how do i put this ? sonny : dead ? yeah , people think he is . lazaro : what makes you think he 's not ? sonny : okay , this is just a theory . what if -- what if he 's been hiding out , right ? and he 's back with a new identity . lazaro : i do n't suppose you have any proof . sonny : well , that 's where you come in , mr. district attorney . diane : thank you both for agreeing to meet with me on the fly , as it were , and i do have another appointment , so i will be brief . [ clears throat ] i want you to hear it from me first that i 'm going to try and stall aj 's trial yet again . michael : he 's being held without bail . diane : i know , and being in county lockup is ... inconvenient , but i am hoping that there are greater benefits . michael : what kind of benefits ? diane : him . michael : you think scott baldwin is gon na be elected d.a . ? diane : i think there 's a strong chance . mm . scotty baldwin was never the most reputable of district attorneys , but he and i had a sort of love / hate relationship that i fully intend to exploit at trial . michael : okay , do what you have to do . diane : you know , underneath that very sweet exterior , michael , you 've always been a realist , and i 've always appreciated that about you . your father would never allow it , d neither would i , but i think you would have done very well in his business . you remind me of jason morgan in that way . it 's always the quiet ones that are the most dangerous . oh , excuse me . by the way , i also have something for you . kiki : oh . thank you . it 's from morgan . michael : divorce papers ? kiki : annulment papers . michael : morgan wants an annulment ? on what grounds ? kiki : fraud . ava : what do you mean what 's going on between me and derek ? morgan : are you sleeping with him ? ava : no ! morgan : okay , so , he was n't the `` my darling `` on your phone call just now ? ava : morgan , i can assure you i am not having sex with derek wells . in fact , the idea of it is revolting to me . morgan : okay , then , what 's with all the secrets ? why do n't you just tell me the truth ? ava : you know something , morgan , if i did n't know any better , i 'd say you were jealous . morgan : jealous ? no . ava : good . because you 've got no reason to be . regardless of my relationship with derek . what we have is n't serious . morgan : yeah . well , maybe i want it to be . carly : well , you seem to have gotten over your artistic pretense . i mean , your agent , sebastian , wanted more pieces like that , and you certainly delivered . wow . franco : yeah , well , you know , you got to give the people what they want , and i think i have . i think i 'm gon na make a bunch of money and i 'm gon na be able to pay you back with interest . carly : well , i 'll be waiting with bated breath . franco : all right . that 's great . 'cause i was hoping to see you there . carly : i might come , yeah . i might be there . sure . i 'm sure you 'll be taking your girlfriend , diane . franco : okay , carly , look , i tried to tell you before . carly : and i 'll be going with my own plus one . over breakfast this morning , derek and i were discussing where to go on our third date . heather : mind telling me what that was about ? diane : it 's on me . scott : well ... diane miller . it 's been awhile . diane : mm - hmm . but absence does make the heart grow fonder , does it not ? just came by to tell you that you got my vote . scott : in exchange for what ? diane : [ chuckles ] oh , baldwin ! you are too much . i 'm actually thinking of the greater good . a win for you might be a nice change of pace for this city . instead of lazaro , we have somebody in office who actually understands , i do n't know , the meaning of `` trumped - up charges , `` for instance . like , take my client , aj quartermaine . scott : yes . i read up on that . diane : well , then , you know that it 's entirely circumstantial . i mean , it 's all smoke and mirrors , totally unprovable . scott : is that what you think ? diane : well , what do you think ? scott : i will let you know when i 'm in office . put that on . diane : oh . scott : thank you . diane : [ sighs ] michael : wait , morgan 's saying that you defrauded him . kiki : he is claiming that i married him under false pretenses because i was in love with someone else . and the truth is , is that he 's right . morgan : i know we 're both on the rebound and our physical relationship is new , but i 've always cared about you , ava , and i know you cared about me . i mean , you took care of me in new york , and i think we 've always had something for each other . we 're just now realizing it . ava : what are you talking about ? you 're in love with my daughter . morgan : yeah , but that does n't mean that my feelings for you are n't real . ava : morgan , i -- morgan : what ? what are you -- what 's going on ? ava : i have to go . morgan : where are you going ? ava : to see derek . morgan : derek ? ava : it 's just business . derek : see , the reason sonny can rake in all these millions without ever catching heat is simple . he funnels everything through corinthos coffee . carlos : oh , like ava 's gallery and your publishing wing . derek : exactly . except print is dying . now , ava and i had hoped that elq could be our new front , but unfortunately that is not gon na happen . carlos : that 's too bad . i mean , you could launder a lot of money through an international like that , right ? derek : yeah . well , what are you gon na do ? right now i have bigger fish to fry . carlos : corinthos coffee . derek : yeah , you see , when you take out a front business , it does n't matter how much money a family brings in . they ca n't spend it without alerting the authorities . those millions are useless to them . it 's like having a gun without bullets . sonny : julian jerome was killed in a shootout with a guy named jonathan paget . his body was found by the chief of police , robert scorpio . lazaro : i remember . it was big news back then . sonny : okay , so , there must be a file on it . robert scorpio must have an account of everything that happened . i just -- i just need you to pull it for me . lazaro : i ca n't . those records are confidential . sonny : so ? lazaro : you 're talking about something that happened 20 years ago . odds are all we have is a hard copy . i 'd have to sneak the file out of pcpd , which is next to impossible with commissioner devane on watch . sonny : i have faith in you . last thing that you want to do is disappoint me . lucy : what can i do for you ? sam : well , actually , we were hoping you could answer a few questions for us . alexis : and we would n't ask unless it were very important . lucy : okay . okay . um ... consider me intrigued . what do you want to know ? alexis : uh , we 're inquiring about a certain individual with whom you were reputedly acquainted with . sam : what do you know about victor jerome ? lucy : victor jerome ? well , that 's a blast from the past . what about him ? alexis : duke mentioned that you were , uh , involved with him . lucy : oh , no , no , no , no . i do n't mean to be mean or anything , 'cause i love duke , but he had to misspeak or he has to remember it differently , 'cause i was never , ever involved with victor jerome . sam : you were n't ? lucy : no . no , i was n't . really . i promise . i admit , i was , uh , making bad relationship choices at the time , but happily i was never involved with him . i was not wanting him , but he -- he kind of wanted me . he was actually head over heels in love with me . and unfortunately when i rejected his affections , he ate it . sam : he did ? wait , what do you mean ? he -- he died when you rejected him ? lucy : yeah . i - i -- i guess so . technically he did . he literally ... ate it . he -- he choked on my necklace . sam : [ gasps ] alexis : he did . lucy : okay , but you still have not said why do you want to know about him ? sam : um , okay , this is gon na sound a little bit awkward , and i 'm sorry for being so crass about this , but is it possible that victor had other relationships ? a mistress , possibly ? lucy : oh , um , let me think . yeah . [ gasps ] there was a woman . her name was , um , dimetria . and she actually bore his love child . franco : all right , what did i do now ? heather : you said that you wanted my paintings because you admire my work , my artistic genius . and now based on what you were telling carly , it sounds like you 're just trying to pass them off as your own . franco : i had to tell carly that , right ? i mean , i had to . i -- [ sighs ] i ca n't show her my real work , 'cause it would ruin the mystique . heather : so , you are planning an art show ? franco : yeah , of course , but , you know , not with these . it 'll be with my artwork . heather : new pieces . from the franco . can i see them ? franco : yeah , well , no , it 's like i said . it would ruin the mystique . heather : you 're not comparing me to carly , are you ? franco : no , not at all . it 's just that my work is very contextual , and it has to be in a context . and if i showed it to you now , it would be like giving you your christmas present in october . heather : say no more . besides , i 've already had my present for today . carly 's seeing someone else . franco : yeah , i already told you that . heather : and what 's going on with you and diane miller ? from what i hear , she 's quite promiscuous . franco : well , she 's a fantastic attorney . heather : no question . franco : yeah . heather : but a lousy gossip columnist . did you know that her former publisher fired her and hired me to do her job ? he was thrilled with it ! in fact , we became quite close . his name is actually -- franco : i do n't need to know his name . heather : well , i guess i ca n't complain . jumping from carly to diane is a step in the right direction . franco : yes , it is ! in fact , you know what ? diane is on her way over right now . so now would be a great time for you to leave . heather : now ? franco : yes . heather : i thought we could grab some blts . franco : i 'll take a rain check on that . okay ? because i do n't want to send diane mixed signals . not now . not during the honeymoon phase of our new relationship . heather : fine . and , by the way , yes , you are very welcome . franco : hmm . heather : for the paintings . franco : yeah . heather : ca n't wait to see your big show . [ door closes ] sam : so , victor and dimetria had a child . lucy : uh , yeah , a boy . a son unfortunately named dino . what ? that 's not the information you wanted ? what ? alexis : actually , we 're trying to find out if victor fathered an illegitimate daughter . lucy : well , not with dimetria . [ gasps ] but there was that other mistress . sam : what other mistress ? ava : you mind telling me why you 're ignoring my -- carlos rivera . i heard you were in town . carlos : ava jerome ! mm ! still as gorgeous as the day we met . ava : you always did know just what to say . carlos : [ chuckles ] ava : so , any luck with that old love of yours ? carlos : it 's an uphill battle . ava : i do know what that 's like . carlos : well , yeah . derek tells me you got a new situation of your own . a little young for you , no ? derek : okay , excuse me , but if you 're both done , uh , carlos has some work to do . carlos : like i said , always business with you . see you around . ava : yeah . so ... you can update carlos on the family business but not your little sister ? derek : you want an update ? it 's done . corinthos is down for the count . carly : what happened ? shawn : our friends paid another visit . carly : the same people who destroyed the coffee shipment ? sonny : we got it covered . what are you doing here , carly ? carly : do you have any idea about morgan ? shawn : i 'll go check on something . carly : okay . all right , so , i 'm guessing that you know where our son is . sonny : morgan is staying at ava 's new place . carly : why did n't you tell me ? sonny : because i knew how you would react . carly : oh , really ? sonny : which is pretty much the way you 're reacting . uh , so i had -- you know , i went over there and i had words with morgan . carly : is he still there ? sonny : he does not want to come home , so , i 'm just telling you , if you go over there all hot - headed -- carly : i just want to make sure he 's okay , sonny . please . tell me exactly where he is . derek : we still have sonny to , uh , take care of . ava : did you get the job done or not ? carly : please , please do n't be so naive , okay ? this woman -- look at her . she 's a predator . she goes after impressionable people like you . sonny : you are an adult now , and i ca n't -- i ca n't protect you from all the harm that 's gon na happen out there . especially this woman . watch your back . kiki : diane ? we 're all set . diane : well , kiki , that was awfully fast . you sure you do n't want to -- kiki : oh , i 'm sure . no , it 's better this way . diane : okay . i 'll have these filed by this afternoon . michael : you okay ? kiki : um , yeah , i 'm okay . it 's just -- it 's a lot to process . michael : do you want to get out of here ? kiki : okay . diane : what 's all this ? franco : this is my new work . a dozen or so paintings just like the one sebastian said he loved so much . we are ready to put this show on the road . diane : yes . we would be , except we have one big problem . franco : what 's that ? diane : you did n't paint any of these . scott : excuse me , ma'am . have you , um , given any thought as to who you -- heather : scotty . scott : heather ? sam : okay , wait a minute . so this mistress who is from new york -- you mean the city ? lucy : what else would i mean ? alexis : what else can you tell us about her ? lucy : uh , not much . i think they met at a bar near the george washington bridge . sam : okay , do you remember its name ? lucy : uh , wait . it 'll come to me . it was irish . wait , wait , wait , wait . riley 's ? rogan 's ? ryan 's . sam : ryan 's . ryan 's . are you sure ? lucy : yeah . it was ryan 's . i 'm 100 % sure it was ryan 's . i hope . ava : sounds like you 've got the sonny situation well in hand . derek : is that approval i hear ? ava : do n't get cocky . how are things with carly jacks ? derek : making progress every day . before long , she 'll be in my pocket , too . carly : morgan ? morgan ! derek : okay , enough about me and carly . how are things with you and the kid ? ava : well , you 're not gon na believe this , but i think the kid is actually falling for me . sonny : we got to deal with what 's in front of us right now . nobody hits us like this , gets away with it . somebody is gon na pay for what they did last night . shawn : you say the word and it 's done . sonny : we got to be smart , though . you understand what i 'm saying ? shawn : okay . so what you want to do ? sonny : we 're gon na wait for lazaro to come back with that file . once we 're sure that derek wells is julian jerome , we are gon na strike . we are gon na make him wish he stayed dead . ava : you wo n't believe this , but morgan thought we were sleeping together . derek : you and me ? ava : yeah . [ laughs ] i nearly choked . do you believe that , julian ? he actually thought i was sleeping with my own brother .

alexis has gotten the lab results to prove that julian jerome ( whom she believes is dead and has no clue is derek wells ) is sam 's biological father . sam is also ready to connect the dots that silas ' daughter kiki 's mother , ava , has a brother who might be the same man in question . they wonder if sam could have siblings out there who are her deceased father 's kids . they find out about julian jerome 's family , mistresses , and illegitimate children he may have had with them from lucy coe who was seeing victor jerome many years ago .

jason : i ca n't imagine losing someone like that . maybe because i ca n't imagine having someone like that in the first place . elizabeth : well , i hope you never find out what that 's like . we could n't even give him a proper funeral . jason : why not ? elizabeth : they dragged the harbor for days . they never found jason 's body . jason : so there 's no place to mourn jason -- no grave ? elizabeth : well , there 's a marker in the quartermaine family crypt . monica : [ sighs ] alice : dr. q ? monica : [ gasps ] oh . alice : hey . i 'm sorry to intrude . i was just out walking , like i 've been doing , as you told me , for my recovery , and i just saw the crypt door open . i was making sure everything 's okay . i 'm sorry . i 'll leave you alone . monica : no , no . it 's okay . just ... this is all i have left of my son . alexis : what is the matter with you ? why would you go after ned ? ca n't you take no for an answer ? julian : no . alexis , i ca n't . not when it comes to you . so you look me in the eye and tell me you would rather be with ned . ned : you want my help ? with what ? tracy : i need your shares of elq . olivia : oh , you must think i 'm being so silly . lulu : no , we do n't . olivia : i mean , it 's just a vision , right ? lulu : no , you do n't have just visions , so we 're not taking any chances . now , with carly 's wedding coming up , it 's probably a good idea for you to check on heather anyway , seeing as how the last time she escaped , she almost killed my cousin . carly : hey ! i missed you this morning . franco : i got up early and you were sleeping so peacefully . carly : yes , and you know how i hate rude awakenings . franco : [ chuckles ] boy , do i ever . carly : well , what got you out of bed at the crack of dawn ? franco : big day at work . carly : yeah ? franco : yeah . i have a very special therapy session with a very special patient . [ door opens ] franco : oh . and here she is now . heather : [ smooches , blows ] carly : special patient , huh ? is it a she ? should i be jealous ? franco : i think you know the answer to that . carly : you make sure you tell her you are a soon - to - be - married man . franco : to the most beautiful , loyal woman on the planet , right ? carly , you know you 're the only woman for me . just like i 'm the only man for you , right ? carly : right . dante : look , we have to remember that when heather kidnapped carly , it was to hurt franco , right ? lulu : yeah , but the end result was still supposed to be carly dead . i just ca n't wrap my head around my dad getting wrapped up in that whole mess . he stumbles on carly being held hostage , then he 's held hostage , and now it 's all happening again . dante : according to jerry jacks . lulu : wait . what are you saying ? that my dad is willingly working with jerry ? dante : no , i 'm not saying that at all . i 'm just saying that the only word we 're going on right now is that of a criminal . lulu : i need to talk to tracy . i need to see if she 's gon na be able to negotiate the release of my dad . dante : well , go . lulu : [ sighs ] it 's rocco . dante : yeah , he 's sleeping . i got it covered . olivia : we all do , honey . go . do what you need to do . lulu : thank you . dante : hey . we 're gon na find out good news about your father , okay ? lulu : okay . ned : wow . i got to hand it to you , mother . this is a fresh tactic . instead of some underhanded scheme to steal my 11.5 % , you just came right out and asked for it . tracy : it 's not for me . ned : really ? who 's it for ? tracy : it 's for luke . ned , my husband 's life depends on those shares . alexis : no , we 're done . and bullying ned is n't gon na change that . julian : all right , then what will ? alexis : nothing will because you 've lied to me one too many times . julian : i did n't lie ! alexis : yes , you did . when you said you were n't plotting with luke , and then tracy saw that you were , and now to make everything worse , jerry jacks is in the mix ? julian : what ? alexis : yes . he claims to be holding luke hostage , and he claims be the man behind the curtain of your organization . so what 's it gon na be today , julian ? are you gon na tell me what 's going on or are you gon na lie to me again ? jason : i thought you said jason 's last name was morgan ? elizabeth : it was , but he was born a quartermaine . jason : you know , i saw a dr. quartermaine on my chart . elizabeth : yeah , monica . jason : i take it she and jason are related ? elizabeth : she was his mother . monica : jason died two years ago today . alice : really ? it 's already been two years ? monica : yeah . seems just like yesterday . i really never believed i would n't see him again . i miss him every single day . alice : i know you do , dr. q. i can see it . monica : [ sniffles ] really is n't fair , you know ? [ sighs ] i grieved him once . i never -- i never expected to have to do it again . alice : you mean after the accident ? monica : yeah . yes . when he became jason morgan , i thought i 'd lost him forever . i mean , tensions gradually eased . not completely . but i really think he did have some affection for me . alice : oh , yeah . i 'm sure he did . monica : alice , i would just give anything to have a little part of him back . i just want this pain to go away . jason : why does jason have a different last name than his family ? did they disown him or something ? elizabeth : oh , no . no , nothing like that . jason was the pride and joy of the quartermaine family . but he was in a terrible accident , which resulted in traumatic brain injury . when he recovered , he had no memory of who he was , where he came from . jason : yeah , like me . carly : well , i got to run . i have to plan for the wedding . tomorrow is the big day . franco : ca n't wait . carly : i ca n't , either . i really ca n't . i love you . franco : i love you , too , carly . heather : oh , no ! franco : oh , no , what ? heather : the sound of your voice . it was dripping with sincerity when you said `` i love you , too . `` you have n't changed your mind , have you ? you 're still planning revenge against carly ? elizabeth : yes , your situation is n't entirely different from jason 's . jason : [ clears throat ] did he ever recognize any of his family ? elizabeth : no . the type of injury jason sustained -- he was unable to recall any memory of his life before the accident . but he was able to make new relationships . and eventually relearned to love some of his family . jason : some ? elizabeth : the type of person jason wanted to be after the accident was very different from who he had been . it was difficult for his family to reconcile with that , but eventually they did . and jason was unapologetic for the choices he made . he did n't regret it for a second . jason : so he was happy ? elizabeth : i think so . i hope so . jason led a short , but full life . had people he loved and who loved him back -- hey . just because jason 's memory loss was permanent does n't mean yours is gon na be . jason : i 'm just trying to imagine what it would be like . to see my parents or my wife ... or my kids ... and not knowing who they are . assuming i had any , but ... if i do , they 're certainly taking their sweet time finding me . elizabeth : i told you , they might not know where to look . jason : he must have been very alone -- jason . starting his life over from scratch . elizabeth : jake . look at me . you can not compare his situation to yours . you 're not jason . alice : i never knew mr. jason as a quartermaine , but i 've seen the pictures of you all as a family and i 've heard all the stories of when he was a kid , and he wanted to be a doctor just like his parents . boy , that would have been fun . you must have been so proud of him . monica : [ sniffles ] it took us way , way too long to realize we still could be proud of him . even though he had changed , we 're still his parents . alice : he was your son , and he had to love you because of that . he loved in whatever capacity he could as jason morgan . monica : thank you for saying that . alice : well , it 's true and -- and i know for a fact that aj loved you . he told me . you were a really good mom to both your boys . do n't forget that . monica : well , i was n't good enough to keep them from being killed . and i was n't good enough to protect them from those who wanted them dead . sonny : excuse me . i got to take care of something . dante : you and shawn gon na hash out kelly 's next coffee order ? sonny : something like that , yeah . alexis : you do n't miss a beat , do you ? dante : nope . you think i have n't noticed that something 's eating at you , too ? are you just thinking about this heather webber vision ? ned : jerry jacks is holding luke hostage and he wants elq as his ransom ? tracy : i do n't think that my paltry 9 % is gon na cut it . ned : and that 's where i come in . tracy : hopefully brook lynn and dylan , too . between the four of us , i can offer mr. jacks 40 % of the company and hopefully that 's enough for him to let luke go . ned : have you lost your mind ? tracy : [ sighs ] ned , please . you have got to help me . can you live with letting jerry kill luke ? can you live with that on your conscience ? alexis : luke is somebody 's father . he 's somebody 's grandfather . he could die if he 's with jerry jacks , so would you please just tell me the truth . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : you say i 'm important to you . julian : yes . alexis : prove it . julian : alexis , i honestly do not know anything about jerry jacks holding luke hostage . alexis : [ chuckles ] okay . but you know something about jerry . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : oh , yeah . this is good times trying to pull things out of you . julian : look , alexis -- alexis : no . no . i 'm big enough to tell you all about my misguided dealings with jerry jacks that almost got me killed . you want me to give you details ? i 'll give you the details . julian : no thanks . alexis : well , i want the details from you . have you had any dealings with jerry jacks ? julian : yes . i have . sonny : what 's up ? shawn : i just got some news about franco . sonny : and ? shawn : he 's back at ferncliff with heather . sonny : [ sighs ] heather : what was that ? franco : what was what ? heather : you know exactly what i 'm talking about . `` i love you , snarly . `` franco : i did n't call her that . heather : well , you should have . franco : look , it was an act , okay ? i could n't very well let her know that i was gon na destroy her entire relationship with michael tomorrow . i had to say `` i love you . `` heather : sorry . that 's not the way i heard it . what i heard was genuine emotion ! i 've been to shrink after shrink analyzing my feelings . i know the sound of true love when i hear it . say it ! you still love carly ! franco : fine ! okay ? ! you got me ! i do ! heather : [ scoffs ] franco : i do . i do still love carly . carly : jerry jacks . are you serious ? lulu : i know , i know . carly : well , is tracy gon na be able to give him what he wants ? is jerry gon na let luke go ? lulu : i do n't know . i 'm going to talk to tracy and trying to get some more answers . carly : i am so sorry , lulu . if there 's anything i can do , will you please tell me ? lulu : yeah . i 'm sorry that i 'm laying this all on you like you do n't have enough going on right now . carly : are you kidding me ? we 're family , all right ? i always have your back -- always . lulu : well , i have your back tomorrow for the wedding . the haunted star is all set . carly : thank you . but what does the haunted star have to do with my wedding ? lulu : it 's where you 're getting married . franco made all the arrangements . did you not know that ? shawn : i was on my way out to ferncliff to spring heather , but my source called and said franco was there . sonny : i thought franco and his mother hated each other ? now , what , he visits her two days in a row ? something 's not right . carly : there must be some kind of misunderstanding . i 'm getting married at the metro court . i own the place . of course i would get married there . and franco knows this . lulu : franco came to me and he booked the place . i -- oh , crap . carly : what ? lulu : [ sighs ] franco said that he wanted to surprise you . carly : i 'm surprised , yeah . why on earth would franco want to get married at the haunted star ? heather : this is such bad news , franco . franco : carly hated me for a long time . hated me . she wanted me dead . heather : remember that . franco : and when she came around , it -- it 's hard for me to explain it to you . she -- she made me feel like i was a human being . that i was n't the monster that everybody thinks that i am . heather : monster ? how about artistic genius ? franco : and she believed in me , and that -- that allowed me to believe in myself . when she stood up for me , she took a chance on me when nobody else would take a chance on me , and we were good , and we were in love , and i am still very much in love with carly . i love carly with all of my heart and soul . sonny : got another problem . shawn : what 's that ? sonny : [ sighs ] after olivia had that vision , dante promised to go check on heather webber . and he 's on it . shawn : so what do you want me to do ? sonny : [ sighs ] franco : after everything carly 's done for me , how could i hurt her ? heather : are you saying you do n't want revenge ? are you calling it off ? shawn : you want me to call off the hit on franco ? alexis : so , jerry jacks is an associate of yours . julian : i 've known him for years . you ca n't be in this business without rubbing shoulders with jerry jacks at some point . alexis : how recently have you rubbed shoulders ? julian : a year ago . maybe . i was in the metro court lobby , having drinks with ava . all of a sudden , we heard this huge crash outside . i ran into the alley and there was jerry jacks lying on the ground . he fell from the roof . would have died if it was n't for some well - placed awning . alexis : or not so well placed . julian : anyway , that was the last time i saw him . hand to god . you have to believe me , alexis . dante : look , i told you i 'd look into the heather webber thing . i 'll make sure she 's where she 's supposed to be . olivia : where is that ? six feet under ? dante : yeah , that 'd be good . but ferncliff is the place for now , so just relax , okay ? olivia : it 's not just heather i 'm worried about . dante : all right , then what else is there ? olivia : this . tracy : come on , ned . admit it . you 'll never forgive yourself if jerry kills luke and you could have stopped it . ned : and grandfather would never forgive me if i handed over my shares of elq to that monster . i wo n't do that to him . or to michael . tracy : oh , really ? and when did michael corinthos evoke such loyalty ? ned : since he 's a part of this family . this company means too much to him . it 's actually helped him heal after he lost aj . tracy : i 'll buy him a puppy . how 's that ? ned : not to mention elq is thriving under his leadership . tracy : yeah , with you playing puppet master , guiding his every move . ned : that 's not true . i have acted as a consultant on certain matters . michael is definitely running the company -- to all of our benefit . you through jerry jacks in the mix , the whole thing blows up . so i 'm sorry . my answer is no . as for dylan and brook lynn , if you want their shares , ask them yourself . tracy : you 're unbelievable , ned ! you would n't have a stake in this company if it were n't for me ! i gave you everything -- everything ! as opposed to your father , lord larry ashton , who gave you nothing but a phony title . ned : oh , nice try ! throwing my father into the mix ! my mind is made up . i wish you luck . but the truth is ... i do n't give a damn about luke . tracy : what am i gon na do ? how am i gon na get my hands on my shares ? [ creaking ] jason : um ... what is that ? elizabeth : a wheelchair . jason : tell me it is n't for me . elizabeth : [ sighs ] i ca n't . because it is . jason : [ chuckles ] no , i do n't think so . elizabeth : oh , come on . why not ? jason : i 'd rather walk . that 's why . elizabeth : no , it 's too soon . too soon . jason : you wo n't know until i try it . elizabeth : are you kidding me ? i had to beg and plead your doctor just to authorize the wheelchair . jason : [ sighs ] okay . i really appreciate what you 're doing here . i do , and i do n't want to -- elizabeth : you 're going to stop arguing and just cooperate with me . come on . it 'll be good for you to get out of this room for awhile , get out of your head . come on . okay , look . i feel really bad about bringing up all the jason stuff . i know that did n't make you feel any better about your situation , so this is just me trying to make it up to you . please ? please ? jason : wow . you are smart . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jason : turning it around so now i 'm doing you the favor . elizabeth : is it working ? jason : sure . kick me out of the bed . i 'm sure you 're not the only woman to do it . elizabeth : geez , do n't sell yourself short . jason : [ clears throat ] elizabeth : you know , um , hmm . maybe i 'll go get an orderly to give you a hand . jason : no , no , no . i can do it . elizabeth : are you sure ? jason : yeah , i can do it . elizabeth : okay . let 's do it . hold on . got to get this off . okay . jason : here we go . elizabeth : okay . right ? ohh . jason : okay , okay . elizabeth : i 'm gon na take that as a no . [ stammers ] jason : i guess i could use a hand . elizabeth : okay . are you ready ? jason : yeah , let 's do it . elizabeth : okay . just easy . just go slow . go slow . go slow . you okay ? you 're doing -- whoa . jason : dancing here . elizabeth : you okay ? jason : [ chuckles ] well ... look at me . i 'm -- i 'm standing . elizabeth : yes , you are . jason : [ clears throat ] elizabeth : you 're stronger than you look . jason : mm . is that a compliment ? elizabeth : uh , yes . jason : well , thank you . elizabeth : okay . you ready ? i 'm gon na back you up into your chair . jason : i can back up . ready ? elizabeth : yep . let 's do it . jason : beep , beep . elizabeth : easy , easy , easy . beautiful ! jason : mm - hmm ! elizabeth : [ chuckles ] you good ? jason : yeah , i 'm good . elizabeth : yeah ? okay . all right . all right , i 'm just gon na unlock you . ready to go ? jason : yeah . elizabeth : okay . jason : okay . nice wheels . elizabeth : it 's how we roll at gh . jason : ooh , crash - test dummy . elizabeth : you 're good . jason : you know , i was already in a car accident . elizabeth : trust me . i 'm a good driver . jason : [ chuckles ] right . so where we headed ? elizabeth : i want to show you the jessie brewer wing . she was an amazing woman , an incredible nurse . jason : elizabeth . elizabeth : yeah ? what ? yes ? are you okay ? are you in pain ? jason : no , actually . this is the best i 've felt since i woke up . thank you . tracy : alice ! look at you ! back on your feet , hale and hearty as you were before your heart attack . monica : who let you in ? tracy : i did . monica : you do n't live here anymore . and in case there is any misunderstanding , you 're not welcome here . tracy : monica , i think you 're overreacting . monica : excuse me ? you tried to buy this woman 's silence by promising her a new heart . tracy : that is n't even close to the whole story . monica : oh , you brow - beat a very sick woman so you and your degenerate husband could rob elq from michael . she could have died ! tracy : but she did n't . luke , on the other hand ... monica : what ? what are you talking about ? tracy : jerry jacks is gon na kill my husband if i do n't give him what he wants . monica : [ scoffs ] julian : all right , i will swear on whatever you want me to swear on . i have had no contact with jerry jacks since the night he fell off the roof . now say you believe me . alexis : i want to . julian : then do it . alexis : you know , you have kind of a lousy track record with this honesty thing lately . or ever . julian : i 'm sorry about the past . i am telling you the truth . alexis : so jerry is n't calling the shots for the jeromes ? ned : there he is . julian : [ sighs ] ned : i saw your car out front . alexis : i just need two more seconds . ned : get rid of him . julian : you know , hold on . i have something to tell alexis . dante : ned ashton and monica quartermaine . i thought that was , uh , ancient history . olivia : it is . actually , ned 's seeing alexis now . dante : that bothers you ? olivia : no . i mean , a little . okay , more than a little . dante : all right , ma , i 'm confused . olivia : well , join the club . dante : well , no , you said you were the one who turned him down when he asked you out . olivia : well , yeah , i thought it was too soon after my breakup with sonny , but ... i told him we should just be friends . dante : and now you want more than that ? shawn : well , say the word and i 'll back off franco . sonny : can you get around heather 's security , even though dante 's sniffing around ? shawn : of course . i 'll make it out . sonny : i mean , i hate to do this behind , you know , carly 's back , but ... shawn : i know . sonny : we do n't got another option . i mean , you know , she 's fooling herself , saying she loves him , and she does n't love franco . she 's just marrying him to keep him quiet about aj . shawn : yeah . sonny : she 's only staying with that scum to protect michael and me . she 's -- she 's throwing her life away . i can not let that happen . so if that that means killing franco ... got to do what i got to do . lulu : okay , i guess the haunted star goes with the halloween theme in name ? i guess ? carly : yeah , i -- [ sighs ] lulu : maybe franco likes the haunted star , and that 's where he had his reveal party or whatever we 're calling that . carly : oh , come on . how crazy was that night ? i mean , all those videos he played trying to convince us that he was n't the psycho that we thought he was . i did n't buy it for one second . lulu : and now you do ? carly : with everything in me . franco 's a good man , and i 'm lucky to have him . lulu : okay , well , that must be it . that must be why franco is insisting on having the wedding there , because ... you two have come full circle . franco : i do n't know what i want . i know what i did want . i know i wanted to spend the rest of my life with carly , because she loves me and she makes me a better person , and i want it to stay that way . heather : wrong and wrong . she does n't love you . she just told you what you wanted to hear . and you gobbled it up , like the hungry man that you were . you were vulnerable , franco ! and she took advantage of that . she lured you in . franco : why ? why would she do something like that ? heather : every woman dreams of taming the beast . and that 's exactly what she did . she turned you into a man who would n't dare hurt her or her family . she 'd love you . she subdued you . and then she hopped in bed with her ex . and laughed about rendering you impotent . franco : you 're right . heather : of course i am . franco : she does n't love me . she loves sonny . she 's loyal to sonny . that 's the only reason she agreed to marry me . so i 'd keep my mouth shut . heather : about what ? what did sonny do ? monica : you want me to turn over my shares of elq to the man who killed alan ? tracy : monica , i loved my brother as much as you . but these are the cards we 've been dealt . we have to play them . it 's the only way to save luke . monica : yes , well i have seen luke 's true colors , and he is as cold and ruthless as the man that murdered my husband . tracy : monica , please have a heart ! tracy : luke did n't . why should i ? tracy : [ sighs ] alice . alice : what ? tracy : alice , i realize that my behavior when you were sick was -- alice : reprehensible ? tracy : that is as good a word as any , but i -- i did it for luke , because i love him , and you love him , too . so just think about him being held captive by jerry jacks . alice : i hate jerry jacks . he killed my buddy , cook . tracy : i know . and he will kill luke if you do n't give me your shares of elq . please , alice , do it for luke . julian : this business with jacks -- stay out of it , alexis . he is a dangerous man . alexis : you think ? julian : promise me . alexis : take him away . julian : no need . i 'll see myself out . if you do n't believe anything else i 'm saying , you believe this . i love you . ned : are you all right ? olivia : okay , yeah . dante : `` okay , yeah `` what , ma ? olivia : okay , yeah , maybe i do wish there was a little something more between ned and me . but we just -- we just -- we kind of get each other , you know ? we kind of click . dante : that 's good . alexis : yeah , we like the same kind of movies . we 're both taking the same mixed martial arts class at volonino 's gym . dante : that all sounds very compatible . olivia : he 's totally hot . dante : that 's awesome , too . olivia : he 's hot in a kind of a corporate way , but i think maybe i missed my chance . dante : okay , why ? because he 's seeing alexis ? look , ma , no disrespect to her , but he 's probably just waiting for you to come around , so why do n't you just go tell him how you feel ? alexis : what if i go tell him how i feel and he says he 's not into me anymore ? dante : all right , then you 'll be no worse off than you are right now . olivia : but i would be worse off because then i lost him as a friend . dante : oh , i know , it 's risky , right ? but it 's a risk you 're gon na have to take . olivia : are you just gon na get up and leave ? dante : yeah , 'cause i got to go look into heather webber for you , okay ? and you got to go talk to ned . [ sighs ] sonny : killing franco spares carly and it spares me , too . shawn : with franco out of the picture , no one will ever know what you did to aj . sonny : let 's be real for a second , shawn . i killed an innocent man , one who my son loved . he begged me not to hurt him . i do n't know if i 'll ever make peace with that . carly : good luck with luke . please , please keep me in the loop . lulu : i will . good luck with the wedding . i ca n't believe you 're getting married tomorrow ! carly : me either ! [ laughs ] bye . lulu : bye . elizabeth : this is our assembly room . jason : it looks more like an art studio . elizabeth : yeah , well , it 's been appropriated by one of obrecht 's prized worker bees . jason : she actually likes someone ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] he 's more demented than she is . makes her feel better about herself . i still ca n't believe franco actually sees patients here . jason : his name is franco ? elizabeth : have you heard of him ? heather : i know carly had an ulterior motive for accepting your proposal . what does she want you to keep quiet about ? franco : you 'll have to wait until tomorrow . but i 've got the whole sordid affair on video , and it will air at the wedding . heather : which is where ? that stuffy metro court ? franco : oh , no , no , no . that 's the first of carly 's many surprises . i changed the venue . it 's the haunted star . heather : oh , fitting for halloween . franco : yeah , but it 's not just that . the haunted star is the first place where i had a chance to prove to carly and everybody else that i did n't do the things they thought i did . that i might actually be a decent human being , not just jason morgan 's evil twin . jason : franco . sounds familiar . elizabeth : i guess that 's not surprising . i mean , he is famous . or i should say he 's infamous . he used to be a notorious criminal . jason : used to be ? elizabeth : yeah , the charges were dropped due to a brain condition . claims he 's a changed man . jason : but you do n't believe it . elizabeth : i do n't know . he also claims since he 's been healed he 's lost all of his artistic genius . but i was never really a fan of his work , anyway . jason : so , uh , you 're into art ? elizabeth : yeah . once upon a time , i dreamed about going to art school . i had a studio and everything . i 'd go there to paint all the time . but then , you know , life just kind of got in the way . i 'm a single mom of two kids . i do n't really have time anymore . jason : show me . elizabeth : show you what ? jason : i only know you as a nurse . let me see you as an artist . heather : you should be thrilled that you 're not jason 's twin -- evil or otherwise . you 're my son . your own man . and tomorrow we 're gon na show everybody in the world that no one messes with you . speaking of which ... when are you getting me out of here ? franco : oh , well , i ca n't spring you while i 'm on the grounds . i 'd be the first suspect . but , i 've convinced a staffer to lend a hand . heather : you could talk the birds out of the trees . franco : soon as i 'm out of here , they 'll sneak you out . and do whatever he says , okay ? no questions asked . i 'll see you tomorrow . heather : it 's gon na be the best wedding ever . franco : hope so . heather : i know so . carly 's gon na be so sorry she never loved you . franco : not as sorry as i am . elizabeth : you want me to just start painting ? jason : yeah , why not ? elizabeth : i do n't know . that 's kind of embarrassing . jason : well , i 'm not gon na judge you . [ cell phone beeps ] elizabeth : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . it 's a patient . um ... okay , i got to go , but do you want to hang out here ? i can call and have someone take you back to your room ? jason : that 's okay . i can manage . oh , yeah . elizabeth : with a broken arm ? jason : [ sighs ] i 'll call somebody . elizabeth : okay , but will you ? or are you gon na be crazy and try to walk back to your room ? jason : and risk falling flat on my brand - new face ? no , i will call . i promise . elizabeth : if i find out you 've collapsed , you 're gon na be in big trouble . jason : oh , yes , ma'am . elizabeth : okay . jason : thank you for the tour . elizabeth : anytime . jason : hey , elizabeth . elizabeth : yes ? jason : do n't think you 're getting off the hook about painting me something . tracy : alice , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you ! you wo n't regret it ! alice : i did n't do it for you . i did it for mr. luke . tracy : i know . i know , and hopefully that 15.5 % will be enough for jerry jacks . alice : i hope so , too . so , when is mr. luke coming home ? tracy : i 'll let you know as soon as i hear anything . alice : okay . okay . thank you . [ cell phone ringing ] alexis : i 'm fine . ned : you do n't need to cover with me . alexis : i 'm sorry you got mixed up in that . he had no right to threaten you . i 'm surprised i did n't walk in when he was pounding his chest . ned : oh , he did that just before you arrived . hey . it 's been a long time since i went to blows over the woman . alexis : you sorry that woman is me ? ned : never . alexis : you 're pretty terrific . you know that ? ned : so are you . alexis : [ chuckles ] ned : [ sighs ] franco : you 're clear on what to do ? mr. beach : crystal . it does n't matter how secure this place is . always someone willing to take a bribe . franco : ai n't that the truth . pleasure doing business with you . mr. beach : likewise . [ cell phone rings ] mr. beach : hello ? dante : yeah , hello , mr. beach . mr. beach : yes . dante : it 's detective falconeri with the pcpd . mr. beach : what can i do for you , detective ? dante : well , sir , i was calling in regards to heather webber . i was hoping she was still where she 's supposed to be -- locked up under high security . mr. beach : absolutely . under guard and locked up tight . dante : great . thank you very much . mr. beach : no problem . locked up , but not for -- [ grunts ] sonny : i wonder if you can hear me , jason . i like to think you can . you know i 'm doing everything i can to fix this . i want to make it right for michael and for carly . she 's in big trouble . this thing with franco , it 's got her all twisted , lying to herself . trying to get through to her , but you know carly . does n't like to admit she 's wrong . maybe to you . if you can somehow ... reach out to her . and be the friend she needs . carly : franco ? you in there ? heather : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] heather : hello there . shawn : you 're coming with me . carly : franco ? sonny : oh , my god . carly : franco ? sonny : oh , my god . [ next_on ] carly : ( to jason ) do i know you from somewhere ? tracy : ( to lulu ) it may not be your father . lulu : ( on the phone ) hi , daddy ? rosalie : ( to michael ) there 's something i need to tell you . nina : ( to franco ) what do you have up your sleeve for your wedding ? kiki : ( to ava ) sonny 's not the only one looking for you . jerry : ( on the phone ) do we have a deal or no deal ? sonny : ( to the mystery woman ) oh , my god .

[ sighs ] never mind . jason : no . hey . do n't `` never mind . `` what 's going on ? elizabeth : you realize we almost got caught . jason : i do . elizabeth : [ laughs ] jason : like teenagers . elizabeth : i know . jason : and this is what got us in trouble in the first place . you 've got to go . elizabeth : oh , i have my yearly performance review with dr. obrecht . [ squeals ] i do n't want to be late . i got to go . love you . jason : love you , too .

[ scene_break ] sabrina : i 'm actually here on behalf of carlos ' parents . i promised to arrange to have their son transported back to puerto rico , but i keep getting sent from one office to another . paul : ah , i appreciate how difficult this must be for you . sabrina : oh , this is n't about me . this is about carlos ' parents . they need to put their son to rest . paul : i understand . and if i could help , i would be down at the morgue right now . but i 'm afraid , um , that simply wo n't be possible . [ scene_break ] jordan : you know that this is a restricted area , right ? anna : yeah , i 'm aware . jordan : clearly , it did n't stop you . anna : oh , i can make up a story as to why i 'm here . jordan : the truth . the truth is always better . anna : uh , i guess i owe you that . i want to see rivera 's body . jordan : for closure ? anna : if there is such a thing . look , i know i do n't have any official standing . if you want me to leave , i can . jordan : i know what carlos cost you , and i can bend the rules a little bit . enough to at least look at his body , right ? where is he ? let me double - check the sheet . oh , better yet . donald . donald : yes , commissioner ? jordan : question -- ms. devane and i , we were trying to look for a body that 's not in its assigned drawer . can you -- can you help us ? donald : sure . who 's the deceased . anna : carlos rivera . jordan : we 're trying to look at his remains . donald : i 'm sorry , commissioner . there are no remains . jordan : what ? donald : carlos rivera was cremated . jordan : cremated ? on whose authority ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : cremated ? when did this happen ? paul : last night . i personally signed off on the order . sabrina : y - you had no right ! paul : actually , um , as district attorney , uh , it is within the scope of my office . sabrina : carlos ' parents were expecting to give their son a proper burial , and what am i supposed to tell his mother now ? she 's gon na be completely devastated . paul : i truly apologize for this mix - up . sabrina : mix - up ? you think that -- [ sighs ] this is a little bit more than a mix - up , do n't you think ? paul : ms. santiago , every attempt was made to contact mr. rivera 's parents in puerto rico . we had no success in locating his family . sabrina : look , all you had to do was contact me . paul : i ca n't tell you how sorry i am for this mistake . sabrina : sus pobres padres . paul : y - you are welcome to collect , uh , his cremains at the morgue . but beyond that , there 's nothing left of carlos rivera . [ scene_break ] michael : i got called into the pd yesterday . sonny : what for ? michael : well , commissioner ashford and , um , da hornsby , they ... they think you had carlos rivera killed , and they wanted me to confirm it . [ scene_break ] carly : i can not believe that nikolas ran a dna test on jake . spinelli : yeah , i know . a most unsettling breach of privacy . carly : especially since he did n't find a match . spinelli : well , see , i would speculate that the opposite is true . i bet there was a match for jake , but prince cassadine took care to eradicate the proof . carly : eradicate it how ? if it 's on a computer somewhere , you 're gon na find it . spinelli : yeah , i 'm actually thinking a much more direct solution . carly : oh , tell me . spinelli : i would if i could , but i 'm here under samantha 's request . when she explained that she was trying to solve the riddle of jake 's true identity , you know , the least i could do was heed her siren call . carly : okay , fine , fine . do n't tell me . all that matters is you 're trying to help jake find out who he is , and i 'm sure he 's grateful . and i 'm grateful . spinelli : [ gasps ] oh . [ both chuckle ] [ scene_break ] jason : hey , listen . do you want to go to her surprise shower ? i mean , i could stay with the boys . laura : you know what ? i think that having an ex - mother - in - law there would be a little bit awkward for her . besides , i 've really been looking forward to spending time with the grandkids . jason : whatever you say . laura : and there she is . elizabeth : hi , laura . laura : hi . elizabeth : thank you so much for coming over today . laura : oh , it 's my pleasure . i was just telling jake how much i 've been looking forward to it . elizabeth : well , you know those boys can be a little rambunctious , so do n't let them run roughshod over you . laura : oh , do n't worry about me . i 'm no pushover . elizabeth : come on . let 's go . jason : yeah . elizabeth : do n't want to be late . jason : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : you got your jacket ? jason : grab your jacket . elizabeth : yeah , i have it . jason : yes , ma'am . all right , bye . bye . i 'm telling ya , the coffee 's good .

[ scene_break ] sonny : the da questioned you about carlos ' death . michael : i was the one who reported carlos as a potential suspect . sonny : do you see now , michael , why i do n't want you involved in my business ? michael : look , i told them i had no idea who shot carlos , and i told them that i have nothing else to say without my attorney . sonny : how did they react ? michael : they were n't thrilled , but they were n't surprised . this was n't about me . they were trying to send you a message . they think that you were behind rivera 's death . sonny : i 'm not . and i 've been assured that none of my people took matters into their own hands . michael : no , none of our people shot carlos . and , look , if rivera shot you , he was acting on julian or ava 's orders . and they turned around , and they killed him before he could give them up . [ scene_break ] anna : oh , hi , sabrina . is that ... sabrina : i 'm gon na make sure that carlos gets back home to his parents in puerto rico . it 's the last thing i could do for him . anna : i understand . i did the same for duke . i took him home . i 'm so sorry . for what it 's worth . sabrina : you 're sorry ? are you sorry for my pain , or are you sorry , because carlos is dead , and he 's not able to pay for what he 's done ? anna : oh , my opinion of carlos and his actions , that has no bearing on your grief . sabrina : i know that carlos did terrible things , but he was also capable of kindness and generosity . anna : oh , i 'm sure he was . the worst amongst us are capable of good . and even the best amongst us are capable of harm . sabrina : i know that he was a criminal , and i understand that ... that he deserved to go to prison for what he did . but i also know in my heart that he did n't deserve to die . anna : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] jordan : who the hell do you think you are ? paul : good morning , commissioner , to you , too . to what do i owe this -- jordan : this is the second time that you 've interfered with my investigation . paul : i 'm not sure i know what you 're referring to . jordan : i was just at the morgue with anna devane ... following up on the carlos rivera case , and i was informed that you ordered for carlos ' remains to be cremated . paul : that 's correct . jordan : this is an ongoing investigation , and you broke protocol . and you may have just destroyed evidence that could 've actually brought us to carlos ' killer . [ scene_break ] anna : oh , donald , thank you so much for coming back . donald : no problem . i apologize again for the confusion . once we receive the paperwork , we process the body accordingly . anna : it 's not your fault . it was a miscommunication between the pd and the da 's office . i mean , it 's not the first time it 's happened , is it ? lord knows it wo n't be the last . i wonder if you can help me clear up something . donald : happy to try . anna : i need a copy of rivera 's autopsy report .

[ scene_break ] paul : i did nothing to hamper your investigation . jordan : you cremated a body . paul : as a budgetary consideration . once the medical examiner had completed his report , i made the decision to dispose of the body . jordan : oh . you know , it was n't your decision to make . not only was the body still evidence , but what about rivera 's family ? did you even make an effort to contact them ? paul : several . it was a judgment call . the me had -- had already filed his paperwork . we do n't have the body , but we have the autopsy report . now , if there was anything in mr. rivera 's remains that can tell us who killed him ... it 's right there . [ scene_break ] donald : carlos rivera 's autopsy report is part of an ongoing investigation . i 'm not supposed to give out information . anna : yes , i understand that , and i hate putting you on the spot like this , but i would take it as a personal favor . donald : commissioner -- i mean , ms. devane -- anna : do you understand how difficult it was for me when duke died ? donald : [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry for your loss . i heard you took him back to scotland . anna : yeah , i did . this is n't gon na be over for me until i can understand what happened to his killer . i have the utmost respect for you and the way you do your job , but if there 's any way at all that you can help me , i would greatly appreciate it . donald : let me see what i can do . anna : thank you . [ scene_break ] michael : we need to figure out who was behind the move against you . now , all signs point to the jeromes , but we ca n't be 100 % sure . sonny : every time i hear you say `` we `` or `` us `` or `` our business , `` you know what i think about ? you in that coma center or in court or going to pentonville . i do n't want to go through that again -- with you or any of my kids . you want me to get better ? you want me to worry less ? stay away from my business .

[ scene_break ] carly : you know , the only way to truly be happy is decide what you want and go for it . maybe you 'll get it , maybe you wo n't , but at least you wo n't be sitting around regretting the chances you did n't take or wishing for what might 've been . jason : you know , if i did n't know better , i would think that you 're telling me that i should marry elizabeth . carly : i 'm telling you to trust yourself . whatever you decide , i 'm on your side . jason : well , you talk a big game . can you back it up ? carly : now , that sounds like a challenge .

[ scene_break ] carly : you want me to stand up for you at your wedding ? jason : yes , i do . carly : even though i 've expressed my doubts about you and elizabeth on numerous occasions ? jason : ever since i met you , i like you . every instinct i 've had about you turned out to be right . and you 're a good person . you are -- you are . even when you think you 're not . you 're actually one of the best . and i have no idea why you insisted on being my friend . it freaked me out in the beginning , i have to admit . carly : [ laughs ] jason : but i am so lucky that you did . and it would mean the world to me if my best friend would stand up with me on the biggest day of my life . so , i do n't know , what do you say ? can you do it ? carly : i say yes !

[ scene_break ] spinelli : anthropologists and forensic scientists have been able to re - create faces using computers to analyze fossilized skulls and teeth , but my program takes the concept to a whole new level , okay ? by using jake 's x - rays , mri scans , and detailed medical records , we are gon na be able to create a likeness of jake 's pre - accident face . sam : uh , do you really think that 's gon na work ? spinelli : [ stammers ] i will admit , the software is new and , dare i say , imperfect . but , i mean , even an inexact likeness is better than no likeness . sam : okay , wait a minute . so you 're telling me that we have to recognize the likeness ? spinelli , what are the odds of that ?

[ scene_break ] spinelli : you are correct . there is the question of what happens if we do n't recognize the face that we create for jake . sam : what is your solution ? spinelli : once the reverse engineering is done , we run the image through facial recognition software linked to the dmv database . it will look for any possible matches . sam : okay , well , that means that jake would 've had to have had a new york license . spinelli : it 's a starting point . [ scene_break ] jason : ma'am . elizabeth : we 're home . everything go okay ? laura : uh ... no , actually . we had a little bit of an incident . um , you know what ? i have to get going home , but maybe you could step outside with me on the porch , so that we could just talk for a minute ? elizabeth : yeah . yeah , of course . laura : okay , great . bye - bye , little jake . jake : bye , grandma . jason : see you guys in a minute . whoosh !

[ scene_break ] ric : i 'm not going to continually take flak for not being the one who 's close to you , ok , because the fact of the matter is you do n't want anybody close to you . you 're going to do everything , you 're going to make every excuse in the world to not have me close to you -- you 're going to use the girls , you 'll use work , you 'll even use your cancer . so why do n't you just come out and say it , alexis ? you ca n't stand the sight of me . alexis : i ca n't . ric : right , because i 'm not sonny . because every time you look at me , you see the one that got away , right , and somehow that 's my fault . alexis : every time i look at you , i see you having sex with my daughter . ric : i do n't know what you heard , alexis -- alexis : it 's not what i heard , ric . it 's what i saw with my own eyes -- you and my daughter having sex right over there on the floor .

[ scene_break ] emily : colleen worked for five different families since she became a nanny . listen to me . two of the men she worked for died , and the third disappeared without a trace . what can you say about that ? nikolas : well , where -- where did you get this information ? emily : stan . he 's sonny and jason 's computer guy . nikolas : oh . emily : he 's this technological genius . he 'd have no reason to lie to me . nikolas : i 'm not -- i 'm not saying that he 's lying to you , but he may not know if it 's false information planted by helena for me to find . emily : why -- why would helena bother ? nikolas : for the same reason she probably poisoned alfred or tampered with my saddle -- to isolate me from the people i trust so she can replace them with her own choices . now , so far , colleen has refused to be intimidated by helena . i believe she probably just saved my life . why would you believe helena over anyone ? emily : because colleen 's story does n't make sense . helena wants to manipulate you , not -- not smother you while you 're in bed . nikolas : why are you so determined to think the worst of colleen ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's a relief to finally know . it 's what i expected . sonny : i 'm not surprised you 're feeling this way . i mean , lucky 's an addict . it 's not -- it 's hard to tell what kind of father he 's going to be . elizabeth : he 's committed to getting clean . sonny : you know , i 've known lucky since he was a kid , and considering what he 's been through in his life , it 's amazing he 's not more screwed up . but what i do know is that at the heart of lucky , there 's a man who knows the value of family . elizabeth : yeah -- when he 's not taking drugs . sonny : assuming lucky stays clean , i -- i think you and your children are better off . and the reason i say that is because jason 's not ready to have a family . his work is incredibly dangerous , and a baby would just make it worse . elizabeth : you 're right . it 's for the best . [ scene_break ] ric : sam and i were here together the night of the blackout . i 'm sure you remember it was incredibly hot . alexis : is that why you felt compelled to take your clothes off ? ric : we 'd had a really horrible day . we were very upset , very angry at -- at the world . alexis : and at me , apparently . ric : yeah , well , you did n't help . look , alexis , i admit things got a little intense between me and sam , but it was n't -- alexis : intense ? intense ? is that how you describe what you did with my daughter ? it was sex , ric . sex . why do n't you just say it the way it is ? ric : you know , do n't lecture me on honesty , because if you saw anything resembling what you say you did that night , then you -- you 've lied about that for how many weeks now ? alexis : 10 . ric : yeah . alexis : 10 weeks . it was 10 weeks ago that i saw you having sex with my daughter . it was the night after i was diagnosed with cancer . you tend not to forget those things . ric : right , your diagnosis -- yet another thing that you lied to me about . alexis : what ? ric : the diagnosis -- you remember that ? that was something else that you lied to me about ? alexis : my time 's at a premium , ric , and you are on a very slippery slope . you want to continue down that path -- ric : you know what ? i 'm not denying what i did . alexis : admit what you did . ric : i admit what i did . why are you doing this now ? alexis : because it is way past time for the truth . you want to hear all the gory details ? i just found out i had cancer . it was probably the lowest point in my life . and i wanted to go home , to our home , you know , that home where we raise our children . i was looking for my family . well , i found them , all right -- doing something so inconceivable , so unthinkable that no matter how hard i try , i ca n't erase it from my mind . you and my daughter having sex is seared into my brain in all of its intense and disgusting detail . it was hateful . it was unforgivable . ric : ok , that 's enough . alexis : i just do n't know how you could 've done -- i just -- i will never understand how you could 've done something -- ric : how could i have done that ? right , of course . how could i have done that ? of course . how could you have done that , alexis ? you 've known for how many weeks already , and you said nothing ! you know what ? i 'm an adulterer , fine , but you 're a hypocrite . alexis : do n't you dare make this my fault . ric : oh , sure . yeah , why should you have to take any of the blame , right ? it 's all me . i mean , we 're so happy in our marriage , right ? that -- why should i ever find comfort with someone else ? alexis : it was my daughter , you ass ! ric : yes , whom you had just insulted and rejected ! i know the feeling . alexis : oh , great -- sex as revenge , ric . what a charming family tradition . ric : ok , that 's great , alexis . yeah , just -- good . be glib -- that 's exactly what you 're good at . what do you expect ? you 're a cold , distant woman who could only love her children . why ? because you can control them . you manipulate people , alexis . and you call it love based on what you think is best for them , never mind what they think . alexis : oh . yeah . huh . see , that 's an excuse that i never anticipated . i 'm the bitch , and you 're the victim ? ric : no , no , no . alexis : oh . ric : of course not . you 're -- you 're the victim , alexis , right ? you 're always the victim . you shut down on me , alexis ! you became dismissive . no matter what i did , good or bad , i became nothing more than a warm body across the room . i became a father to your children . when i saw you with the mayor , i jumped to the obvious conclusion . because i never thought that you would go to that pompous ass and confide in him , rather than coming to me and tell me that you had cancer ! alexis : i was struggling with my own mortality , ric . it never occurred to me that you would use that as an excuse to sleep with my daughter . ric : yes , but you kept pushing me towards sam , right ? you made sure we were together . you kept pulling your strings from your -- your hospital bed . you made sure we went to parties , alexis . you -- you cried crocodile tears to tell me that it was very important that we stay together as a family . what was that supposed to prove , alexis ? what ? was it supposed to show that maybe we would get back together again , that maybe -- oh , god -- maybe we would sleep together ? well , guess what -- if you were betting on that , you lost . i have never put my hands on sam ever again . alexis : bully for you . ric : oh -- alexis : really -- no , bully for you , ric , because i 'm sure there must be a medal somewhere for a husband who only sleeps with his wife 's daughter once -- ric : ok -- alexis : and not twice . ric : so it was n't a test , then ? so what was it , alexis ? was it your revenge ? alexis : oh , god , i do n't want revenge , ric . i just want out . it 's over , ok ? we 're done .

nikolas : so how did a reasonably friendly divorce between two people who 've practically known each other forever end up in mediation in front of a judge ? lucky : one word -- `` lawyers . `` nikolas : lucky , i told you that alexis and diane would try to outdo each other . so if you know that going in , ignore all the posturing and focus on what 's best for your children . lucky : all i wanted to do was secure a place in jake and cameron 's lives . instead , i could wind up losing them forever .

[ carly sighs ] jax : trevor lansing is running zacchara 's business -- that 's great . he knows how to keep zacchara under control . he also knows that if he threatens my family , i will launch a federal investigation against him . okay , that would -- that would blow his cover . that would end his legal career and perhaps even his life . carly : okay , i hope you 're right . jax : look , i 'm no expert in mob business tactics , okay ? but as long as trevor lansing is running the zacchara business , then our family is relatively safe . [ scene_break ] sam : well , you are going to be able to get a decent settlement for lucky , are n't you ? trust me , everything that went wrong in that marriage was elizabeth 's fault . alexis : i 'm just saying that it 's a little awkward for lucky right now . if diane finds out that you two slept together last night , she is going to have a field day with that . sam : okay , well , lucky did actually get called out to the warehouse explosion -- if that makes you feel any better . all right , look , anyway , my -- my point to the whole thing was that elizabeth is not exactly innocent here . i mean , she did sleep with jason while she was married to lucky . alexis : after she caught him in bed with maxie . sam : yeah , but they separated , divorced , and then remarried , and she still did n't tell lucky the truth until she was under oath at jason 's trial . alexis : elizabeth and -- and jason slept together once a year and a half ago -- that does not constitute infidelity . your being with lucky right now is problematic for him . sam : yeah , but i 'm not surprised . so in your eyes , i am the one who 's hurting lucky . alexis : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm saying right now you two being together is complicating his life and his divorce . sam : you know what ? maybe we were n't quite ready for this mother / daughter breakfast . alexis : please do n't -- i 'm not judging you . sam : good , because i happen to care about lucky .

[ kelly laughs ] robin : yeah . maybe that 's what this anxiety is all about . kelly : you know , if jax , leo , and lucky are n't willing , and patrick is out of the question , maybe it 's time to consider a sperm bank . robin : or maybe i 've been going about this all wrong -- i mean , i 've been practically apologizing for asking . maybe i need to take a more aggressive approach . [ scene_break ] spinelli : how could you shove fair lulu out the door into the hands of the unworthy one ? how could you be so callous ? jason : the situation with trevor and zacchara is deteriorating as we speak . spinelli : the real danger for lulu is with the unworthy one . he 'll no doubt betray her trust again , leaving her sad and alone and vulnerable to anyone who would pick her up on the street . jason : i warned you that she 's not going to camp out upstairs forever , did n't i ? spinelli : yeah , yes . i just -- i do n't know . i just wish that -- i wish the blond one would see me as more than just a wimp with extreme cyber - skills . it just -- i just wish the jackal could find a way to prove his -- his manhood so that she would respect me .

[ scene_break ] alexis : elizabeth poses a risk to her children because she allows them to spend time with a known criminal , jason morgan . diane : who has never been convicted of any crime . alexis : which does n't mean that he did n't commit them . he can be directly linked to a well - known criminal enterprise , and ms. miller is acting as his general counsel . diane : please do not hold elizabeth responsible for the alleged actions of my other clients . ms. davis is simply trying to divert your attention from the fact that mr. spencer abused his wife while he was using drugs . he yelled at her frequently , shoved her at will . accidentally almost shot her once -- accidentally , so he says , on the docks . and actually fired a gun in the house with cameron sleeping in the next room . alexis : and yet elizabeth has asked my client to marry her a second time . diane : did she also agree to his affair with your daughter ? alexis : she had an affair with jason morgan . diane : that was one night at the very end of their first marriage , and after she caught him in bed with maxie jones . alexis : she did n't disclose that information before she agreed to marry my client a second time . diane : unlike your client , who flaunts his affair with sam . did you sleep with her last night ? well , of course you did . this man has absolutely no respect for my client . he is a disaster as a husband and a father -- elizabeth : okay , that 's enough , both of you . this is not what we want at all . [ scene_break ] sam : you 're jealous . carly : why would i be jealous of you ? every guy you 've ever been with has dumped you , including jax . but i wo n't have you coming to my house anytime you feel like it , so what do you want ? sam : i already told you -- your husband . carly : that 's not going to happen . jax is incredibly happy , and even if he were n't , he 'd never date you again because jax learns from his mistakes . sam : hmm . he 's bored with you already , is n't he ?

[ scene_break ] luke : spencers have good instincts , lulu , trust yours . lulu : nothing happened . luke : if you observed anything that was interesting , important , unusual -- anything at all -- i 'd appreciate knowing about it . it could be important . lulu : all i know is that johnny zacchara is reckless , and there is something seriously wrong with him and probably his entire family . and the only thing that we have in common is that we like to drive fast cars -- which reminds me , i got to get going . luke : oh , there 's a slick evasive maneuver . lulu : i just came over here to tell you guys that i 'm still seeing logan . it has nothing to do with the deal i made with scott , so do n't bother trying to talk me out of it . tracy : okay , your father and i promise not to interfere , which means you can stay here . at least you 'll be safe from flying bullets and anybody who might want to drag you off . luke : tracy has a point . there 's no reason for you to be living over there at jason 's . lulu : i like it there . and if the zaccharas wanted to hurt me , i 'd already be dead . tracy : we promise to ignore you completely ? lulu : that 's okay . i 'm happy where i am . tracy : okay , i 'm officially worried . luke : nice try , spanky . you almost got her to go for it . tracy : i do n't know which is worse -- living with logan hayes or camping out in the middle of a mob war . luke : well , at least i know my way around a mob war .

[ scene_break ] jax : hey . carly : did sam come by to see you ? jax : no . why would she ? carly : well , she stopped by the house right after you left , asking for you . jax : really ? carly : yeah . jax : what did she want ? carly : well , she made a really big deal out of trying to seduce you -- that was definitely a cover . jax : did you just insult me ? carly : no , i did not . she would drag you into bed in a second if she could , and you would say , `` not in this lifetime , you little slut . `` right ? jax : you 're absolutely right , and sam knows that , too . carly : what is she up to ? what do you think she wants ?

[ emily chuckles ] emily : and he 's going to be announcing an endowment in my father 's name , and he 's also paying homage to one of my favorite nights -- the bacchanalia ball . nikolas : you were too young to remember the last one , but we hope you can join this one . lulu : um , can i bring a date ? nikolas : bring anyone you like . lulu : only if you promise not to try to kill them . [ scene_break ] carly : thank you . [ scene_break ] ric : as you know , alcazar left you a fortune , which includes me very , very valuable property by the docks . it 's ideally suited for illegal transport . skye : in other words , any smuggler who wants to enter port charles without going through sonny will have to use lorenzo 's property . ric : my father 's going to be contacting you very soon -- that or some other representative of the zacchara family . and when they do , it might be very wise for you to bring me in on the negotiation . [ scene_break ] sam : hi . um -- so carly probably did n't give you my message . jax : no , she did , but -- but she was a little confused . she was n't sure if you wanted to talk to me or seduce me . sam : look , this is really important , and i would love to speak to you privately . jax : well , whatever it is , you can say it in front of carly . sam : huh . well , i never thought i would see jasper jacks too hen - picked to think for himself . forget i even asked . jax : `` hen - picked `` ? `` hen - picked `` ? [ carly laughs ] jax : she 's definitely after something . carly : yeah -- maybe it 's jerry . i have seen them together quite a few times lately . jax : what would -- what would jerry want with her ? carly : is n't it obvious ? i mean , as much as i hate jerry , i would n't wish sam on anyone , but you know what ? better him than you . jax : i love it when you get jealous . carly : good , because i have no intention of ever sharing you with anyone . jax : okay . [ scene_break ] alan : tracy ? you want to hear my two cents ' ? tracy : no . alan : good . luke is walking right into the middle of a mob war , and you need to steer clear . tracy : why do you bother to materialize or -- or immaterialize -- whatever it is you do -- to state the obvious ? alan : because i 'm worried about us . if luke gets you killed in some kind of a shootout , we are going to be damned to haunt the rest of the quartermaines together -- forever . tracy : you 're not a ghost . you are a stress - related hallucination . luke : what are you and the dearly departed doctor discussing , dear ? tracy : nothing . luke : well , for `` nothing , `` he seemed to get to you .

alexis suggests that sam might want to discontinue her relationship with lucky while the divorce and custody issues are going on , but she refuses . whether lulu living with someone in the midst of a mob war or being involved with logan is worse is confounding to tracy and luke . alan is also worried that if luke gets into the war , tracy will die and they 'll both be condemned to haunt the rest of the family for all eternity . elizabeth and lucky abruptly turn reasonable , with him ceding custody to her and she allowing him unlimited visitations . a very befuddled spinelli agrees to father robin 's child . hearing a new orderly singing a particular song ticks epiphany off royally .

[ chuckles ] he was . he would sit there , and he would hold michael for hours , and they would look at these travel books , and they would point at all the places that they wanted to go , even though michael could n't read or talk at the time . but jason was convinced that he understood everything . todd : it sounds like jason was really good with kids . carly : the best . and that 's why i wanted that so badly for jason -- a family of his own . and he was just about to have it . i mean , to raise a child with the woman he loves . it did n't matter that the baby was n't his .

[ door closes ] franco : this is , uh , my new work , dozen or so paintings , just like the one sebastian said he loved so much . here we are . ready to take the show on the road . diane : yes , well , we would be , except we have one major problem . franco : what 's that ? diane : you did n't paint any of this . franco : what makes you say that ? diane : because you told me that you could n't paint this one , and these look remarkably similar . how do you explain that ?

why are you interested in his business ? what is this about ? mrs. collins ? lucy : oh , um , hi . ms. coe . ms. coe . yes . dr. collins wanted me to tell you he 's sorry , but he has a patient in crisis . lucy : oh , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . you know , he always has a patient in crisis , so why ca n't this particular crisis wait till after lunch ? dr. collins asked me to tell you that he needs a rain check . lucy : a rain check ? i 'd like to give him a rain check ! listen to me , you . do not ever , ever , ever , ever fall for a doctor . michael : dad ? dad ? what the hell happened ? i saw the cops leaving . what were they looking for ? sonny : the cops did n't do this , michael . someone else did . ava : you 're not gon na believe this . but morgan thought that we were sleeping together . derek : you and me ? ava : [ laughs ] i nearly choked . do you believe that , julian ? he actually thought i was sleeping with my own brother . morgan : that guy 's ava 's ... oh , my god . derek wells is julian jerome . painting , but i - i - i painted all the rest of them . diane : and yet they all look so similar . franco : [ clears throat ] uh , yeah . what ? you never heard of picasso ? diane : sure . franco : okay , well , picasso was influenced by cezanne and pissarro . and it works the other way , too . picasso influenced , uh , lichtenstein and hockney and pollock , who , in turn , influenced anybody who wanted to drip paint on just about anything . diane : so you 're saying you were influenced by whoever painted this . franco : no , i was inspired to create my own interpretations . whoever painted that is my muse . diane : do you think your muse might get angry that you 're plagiarizing his or her work ? franco : nah . she does n't mind . she 's my biggest fan . diane : of course your muse is a woman . what 's her name ? franco : i 'm not telling you her name . why do you need to know her name ? diane : so that i can get her signature on a release or something . franco : no , she prefers to remain anonymous . diane : uh - huh . wait a minute . wait a minute . is your muse that groupie that you had in here , the one that made carly so furious ? franco : it could be . diane : something does n't compute here ! a week ago , you had this , and it 's not even yours . now you have all these . franco : hey , what can i say ? nothing gets your juices flowing like a deadline . diane : you know what i think ? i think you 've lost your mojo . i think when the doctors removed that tumor , you lost all capacity for violence , and you also lost your talent . you did n't paint one of these , did you ? not one . heather : what ? no hug ? scott : [ coughs ] i 've got a bit of a cold . i would n't want you to catch it . heather : oh , scott . if i can survive a fall off the roof of the hospital and a shadybrook all - patient production of `` brigadoon , `` i can handle the sniffles . scott : this is a surprise , you know . i - i must admit i almost did n't recognize you in this getup . heather : well , you know me . i like to mix it up . scott : well , speaking of mixed up , are n't you supposed to be locked up in the miscavige institute for the criminally insane ? heather : yes . i am . us residents like to call it `` micey . `` see what i did there ? m - i - c - i . and let me tell you something , scott . mice abound ! scott : it 's good to see that you still have your sense of humor . but if you 're supposed to be locked up there , why are you here ? heather : oh , is n't it obvious ? scott : i wish it was . heather : well , we 're at kelly 's . what does kelly 's have ? scott : chipped beef on toast ? heather : no . the world 's greatest blts ! i 'm a big fan of kelly 's blts from way back , since when rose and paddy owned the place , remember ? i was dating joe at the time . you remember joe kelly , do n't you ? scott : of course i do . heather : ah , yes . joe . with him , it was all the blts i could eat all the time . scott : a girl does need her bacon . heather : and he loved to give it to me . the bacon , scott . scott : mm - hmm . yes . heather : i was in love with joe . i mean , between the sandwiches and the sheets , we were in bliss . until you destroyed it ! scott : oh ! whoa ! lucy : you see , doctors actually do n't really care about people . they just care about their `` patients . `` case in point -- dr. silas clay . sam : huh ? silas : hi . sam : hi . silas : how you doing ? lucy : so , do not ever get involved with a doctor , because not only , for example , is this doctor a doctor , he also happens to be very insensitive perhaps to those who love him , not to mention the fact that his blood brother was a serial killer . and doc has said that studies have proven overwhelmingly in the evidence that evil runs in the dna . so there . silas : and only if doc was here , we could ask him . lucy : [ chuckles ] excuse me . nurse ! hey , i want to get a message to my so- called husband ! silas : for what it 's worth , i hope you do n't take her advice . sam : actually , it 's a little late for that . i think i have , um -- i might ha just as much evil in my dna as you do . silas : i really doubt that . sam : no , i just found out that my father is a mobster . silas : nice . how did you come by this good news ? sam : oh , my mom did some digging , and she found out that my father might have been a part of this major crime family right here in port charles . silas : here ? so , your old man 's still around ? sam : um , no . he 's been dead a long time . but it turns out that , um -- that he had a -- he had a son , and my mom ran a dna test , and -- and this mobster 's son is my brother . silas : wow . well , look , i guess on the bright side , you finally got some answers about your father , you know . it 's too bad he 's gone . bad guy or not , i 'm sure you would like to have met him . sam : silas , it 's -- it gets a little bit more complicated . my -- my father had a sister who might live here in port charles . silas : no kidding . anyone you know ? sam : i know her . yeah . um , you -- you -- you know her better . silas : sam , i just moved here . who could it be ? sam : ava jerome . derek : yeah , well , i hope you set your little boy toy straight , sis . ava : of course i did . in fact , i told him the truth . derek : what ? ava : i did . i looked morgan straight in the eye , and i told him that i find the very idea of sleeping with you revolting . which i do , obviously . derek : yeah , well , right back at you , sis . i have , uh , done some pretty adventurous things in my life , but a family member ? that is where i draw the line . ava : well , how do you know you have n't ? i mean , given how much our father slept around , i 'd be surprised if he did n't have a whole slew of inbred grandchildren . you know , he might . derek : it 's true dad did have a problem keeping it zipped , but you , on the other hand , you 're -- uh , you 're playing house with a kid who 's , uh , what -- half your age . ava : as if dad did n't have mistresses that were half his age ? derek : okay , do n't get so defensive . i told you , i admire your dedication and your creativity for going after morgan after kiki left him for michael . sonny : shawn and i got here this morning . the security guard was knocked out . place was trashed . michael : well , first , one of your shipments gets blown up , and now this ? it 's got to be the same people , right ? sonny : that 's what i 'm thinking . michael : you still think it has something to do with that julian jerome guy ? sonny : yeah , michael . i do . ava : you are oversimplifying a complicated situation . morgan has had a tough time . derek : well , i 'm moved by your compassion . i 'm sure morgan is , too . just make sure you 're keeping an eye on little corinthos lite . ava : of course . why would you even question that ? derek : uh , well , did n't you just tell me that he 's jealous of us being , uh , lovers ? ava : and i 've disabused him of that notion . derek : yeah , but for him to have that notion in the first place , he must have overheard you on the phone with me or something . in any event , he clearly knows that there 's more to our relationship than just art . ava : he does n't know . he suspected . and i told you i can handle him . derek : well , as long as he does n't know that we 're going after this father . diane : you can tell me the truth . murder , fraud , plagiarism . i 'm bound by confidentiality . franco : diane ... i just ... could n't do it . i tried so hard to get my brush on the canvas . i did everything i could think of . i closed my eyes and thought of my high - school girlfriend . nothing worked . my paintings just looked like cheap drugstore greeting - card art . and so , i appropriated another artist 's work . diane : so , i 'm writing a contract for the comeback of franco , formerly known as the artist , and you did n't paint any of these ? franco : no . diane : a groupie did . franco : yes . diane : not the most trustworthy of subspecies . what if she makes trouble for you ? franco : she 's not gon na do that . she 's my number - one fan . diane : something tells me you 're not up on the works of stephen king . franco : god , no . why ? diane : because stephen king wrote a novel , which was then turned into a movie starring james caan , who played a writer whose number - one fan , played by kathy bates -- who won an academy award for this , by the way , very well - deserved -- kidnaps him , ties him to the bed , and then hobbles him using a sledgehammer . ring any bells ? franco : no , it does n't make -- no bells . it 's nonsense . why would kathy bates hit him with a sledgehammer ? diane : because she felt that he betrayed her artistically . and when obsessed fans feel betrayed , they can become violent . are you telling me this woman is not capable of that ? heather : it 's all your fault joe left me . scott : that 's not really the way i remember it . heather : really ? you do n't remember him walking in on us together in bed ? you do n't remember him telling me i made him want to puke ? scott : i do remember that . it kind of seems like it was yesterday . but , heather , you know , come on , i mean , our affair , it was -- it was mutual , was n't it ? heather : do n't flatter yourself . scott : it was n't like i forced myself on you , like , say , the way luke forced himself -- heather : do n't say that about luke . scott : you 're right . this is n't about luke . this is -- this is about us and how we felt about each other before joe caught us in bed . heather , come on ! you know , we were crazy about each other ! i was like a bee to honey . i had so much passion for you , and it was very , very real . and you told me that you felt that way , too . come on , now . we 're not just old friends , babe . we had a lot of good times together . do n't you remember ? heather : yeah , scotty . i remember that , too . lucy : tell dr. collins that this is approximately the 20th time he has canceled a date with me . obviously he does care more about the mental health and stability of his patients than his wife . so , you can also tell him that if he ever gets around to missing his wife , then he can find me out on the campaign trail -- on the campaign trail with my very attentive , very attractive ex - husband , scott baldwin . i think i need to write this down . lucy : with whom i 'm going to be spending a lot more time with because obviously my doc never is available to me . silas : whoa . slow down . brain freeze . in what world are you and ava even remotely related and how ? sam : okay , so a dna test proved that my father is a man named julian jerome , and just the other day , you told kiki that -- that ava had a brother . silas : yeah ? sam : yes ! a brother who was very rich and had connections , one that she had never mentioned his name to you , nor did she ever mention anything about him to her daughter . silas : even so , have you considered the fact that jerome is a relatively common name ? sam : okay , i know . but have you considered the fact that ava has constantly lied about being a part of the jerome family and -- and she does lie about anything and everything ? silas : hey , look , if ava was the daughter of a mob boss , she would n't be lying about it . she 'd be bragging about it . sam : okay . i know this is a long shot , but can you just hear me out for a second ? okay . silas : sure . sam : okay , come here . so , lucy told me that julian jerome , his father was named victor , and he had a problem with staying faithful to his wife , so he had tons of mistresses . and so , he had julian , and then there were two other brothers by two other women , and there was also a third mistress , according to lucy , but she could n't remember her name . the only thing she can remember is that this woman was from new york city . silas : oh , well , that narrows it down . sam : and she said that victor would take this woman to , um , a bar named ryan 's . have you ever heard of that ? ava : trust me , julian . the only thing morgan knows about us is that we are in the art business together . he does n't have a clue about anything we 're doing , and it 's gon na stay that way . sonny : michael . michael : look , ava always told kiki that she was an only child . sonny : right . michael : why would she leave out the fact that she has this rich brother ? and the only thing i can think of is that there 's something shady about him . sonny : i am waiting on information that could prove that jerome is still alive . michael : if julian is ava 's brother , they could be working together to bring you down . and that means morgan 's caught in the middle . derek : if the kid is asking questions , then he already suspects something . ava : yes ! an affair . not a conspiracy . we have nothing to worry about . morgan will never know . derek : you sure about that ? ava : i 'm sure . morgan : maybe you should n't be , ava . looking forward to the `` franco come back from the dead `` comeback show , so that 's exactly what they 're gon na get . diane : does your number - one fan know that you 're passing off her work as your own ? heather : you said that you wanted my paintings because you admired my work , my artistic genius . and now based on what you were telling carly , it sounds like you 're just trying to pass them off as your own ! franco : yes . in fact , she 's really happy about that . diane : she is ? franco : uh - huh . ecstatic . she says that it 's the only way that the world will ever really get to recognize her true genius . diane : and this `` genius `` does n't mind remaining anonymous ? franco : well , i offered her a share of the proceeds for her discretion . diane : okay , so you have an oral contract ? franco : yeah , basically . diane : what you need is a written contract . franco : no ! there 's not gon na be a written contract ! no ! okay ? ! no ! no contract ! the bottom line here is money , okay ? there 's a whole lot of it to be made by everyone , including you ! okay , so forget about your contract ! let 's just roll with this ! and for the love of god , can we please stop talking about my muse ? ! heather : mmm ! lucy : oh , for heaven 's sake ! scott baldwin , you 're supposed to be kissing babies , not -- heather webber ? ! diane : if you go through with this show , you are perpetrating a major fraud . you are marketing work that is n't your own . franco : yeah , i 'm okay with that . diane : yes , but your buyers wo n't be . franco : then my buyers do n't need to know . diane : franco , you 're not the only one who stands to lose everything here . my head is also on the chopping block , not to mention ava jerome . franco : ava jerome ? what does ava jerome have to do with any of this ? diane : well , i 'm -- i 'm sure i told you about this . franco : i 'm sure that you did not . diane : it 's her gallery that is opening your show . franco : how long have you known that ? diane : well , i tried telling you the other night , but you were so upset when you assumed that -- carly assumed that you and i were sleeping together . uh , then i did n't want to tell you because i just thought you 'd freak out , just like you 're doing right now . franco : tear it up . you tear up that contract . there is no way that ava 's gon na make a dime off of my artwork that is n't even my artwork . ava : morgan . what are you doing here , huh ? did you follow me here , baby ? morgan : yeah , i did . 'cause i wanted to see what was going on between you and this loser . ava : [ exhales sharply ] because you were jealous ? i have to say i 'm flattered . but really , it 's unnecessary . in fact , i was just telling mr. wells here how ridiculous it is for you to suspect that we were sleeping together . morgan : oh , i know you 're not sleeping together . ava : because he 's my business partner . morgan : no , because he 's your brother . michael : dad , morgan could be in trouble . sonny : living with ava ? even if she was n't connected , she 'd still be dangerous . michael : okay , what if we 're right ? then what if ava 's brother is julian ? and what if she 's only with morgan to somehow get to you ? sonny : well , that 's entirely possible . michael : we should do something , then . morgan 's vulnerable . we got to get him out of there . sonny : you think i do n't know that ? michael : okay , then what are we waiting for ? sonny : proof . look , i already , you know , went over there , tried to get him out of there , and it did n't work . what 's gon na happen if you and i try to get morgan away from ava without it ? michael : [ sighs ] he wo n't believe us . sonny : and ? michael : and he 'll dig himself even deeper in at ava 's . sonny : okay , i 'm taking the proper steps . nothing excessive . i went over there . i warned morgan about ava . he did n't want to listen . and he 's not gon na listen to you if you go over there . michael : yeah , you 're right . he wo n't . [ sighs ] sonny : so , we got to do what we need to do , right ? what 's with the suit ? you going to a funeral ? michael : yeah . i 'm going to a funeral for my career . i had another job interview today . sonny : what happened ? they turned you down 'cause of your prison record ? michael : no , actually , they turned me down because of you . morgan : your name is n't derek wells , all right ? it 's julian jerome . and you 're trying to take down my dad ! heather : that 's what he said . scott : okay , uh , why do n't we just spread out and calm down , lucy ? lucy : calm down ? i left you for one minute , and what do i do ? i come back and find you making out with an escapee from an insane asylum . heather : oh , yeah , like you 've never tried to escape from a nuthouse . did your ex - wife here ever tell you about the time that we escaped from ferncliff together ? lucy : we were n't together . there 's no `` we `` in this . i -- listen to me -- i was completely exonerated . you , on the other hand , you deserve to be in some sort of wraparound straitjacket in some sort of padded cell with locked doors inside a big fortress with thick , thick walls surrounded by electrified barbed wire ! heather : what a coincidence . that 's where i was this morning . lucy : ohh ! and you ! you -- you -- what are you thinking ? you are running for district attorney . you can not be seen with the likes of her , much less kissing on her ! scott : yes , i know that , but i was trying to keep her from stabbing me ! and one thing led to another . lucy : oh , my god ! well , it 's a good thing i showed up when i did . okay , listen . i think what we should do is , you try to grab her purse , subdue her , and i 'm gon na call the police . heather : yes , scotty . subdue me . lucy : stop ! hey . scott : hmm ? lucy : actually , pal , i just had a stellar idea . you know what ? you 're running for district attorney . what do district attorneys do ? they catch criminals . so you need to catch heather webber . you 're the big hero of the town . you win the election . so listen , you -- you call the police . call them ! heather : he wo n't . unless he wants me to tell the police that my escape was all his idea . franco : ava jerome is a faithless bitch . she used me . and maybe i deserved it . but that little girl who i thought was my daughter did not . there is no way i am putting one penny into the pocket of ava jerome . diane : ava was resistant to doing business with you again , too . but she saw the light . she came to her senses . now it 's your turn . franco : no , i am not coming to my senses . you 're right . this is crap . look at this ! there 's no way i 'm showing this crap . come on . les call the whole thing off . diane : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . i never said i did n't want you to show the crap . i just want legal assurances that it 's not all gon na come crashing down on your head . franco : you said it was fraud . diane : yeah , well , maybe there 's a way to work around that . right now , i have to stage your comeback . franco : what comeback ? diane , you were right . whatever talent i ever had is gone . diane : but your debts are n't . and you owe me thousands , and that 's just for the day . you see , it 's no longer about redemption or art , franco . it 's about money now . because while your -- while your civil suits are worming their way through the legal system , you got to do this . carly 's about to throw you out of this hotel . so you got to deal with ava , suck it up , sign the contract . let 's do this . franco : how 'd i get here ? i 'm broke . i ca n't paint . carly is gon na throw me out on my ear . and you 're right . this fraudulent comeback is my only shot at ever getting my life back . diane : yeah , you want to see how much worse it can get ? you blow this off . franco : okay . let 's do this . the real reason i want to do it is to show carly that i have more class and i 'm more successful and i have more heart and soul than that soulless troglo -- tr -- diane : dyte . franco : doofus , derek wells . give me the contract . let 's go . diane : fantastic ! franco : [ exhales deeply ] okay . there just better not be any more surprises . ava : morgan , baby , you misunderstood what derek and i were saying . you 're wrong about what you -- morgan : okay , i heard every word that you two said . do n't smile and act cute and try to tell me that i did n't hear it . ava : wh is with you ? always sneaking around , listening to my conversations ? i told you eavesdropping was a deal breaker -- morgan : shut up , ava , okay ? i heard that you 're the jeromes and that you 're after my father . ava : you need to chill out right now . morgan : oh , you know what ? you must be the one that blew up my dad 's shipment . sam : as it turns out , ryan 's bar still exists . silas : and where did lucy say this bar is ? sam : upper west side . silas : you sure ? sam : yeah . why ? silas : ava dragged me to a ryan 's bar a couple times . it was on the upper west side . derek : i have one question about what you claim you know about me and ava . why do you care ? morgan : are you serious ? he 's my father . derek : okay , but you 're not the only one who 's good at listening , son . i 've done some listening myself . and from everything i 've heard , you hate your father 's guts . he humiliated you at the party that ava threw for you and your new bride . morgan : and i 'm supposed to think that bothers you ? derek : you loved my niece . you kids deserved to be happy . and that night , sonny ruined any chance of happiness that you two could have had . sonny stabbed you in the back when he told kiki that you 'd been lying to her . he drove kiki to leave you for your brother michael so michael could be happy . [ scoffs ] just like every other day and night of your life , sonny chose michael over you . am i right ? michael : the h.r . rep who interviewed me , uh , said they wanted to keep their image clean . they could n't afford to hire somebody whose father is a crime boss . she did n't add -- sonny : come on . michael : she did n't add `` especially one who 's an ex - con , `` but , you know , she basically implied it . sonny : you want me to talk to this h.r . woman ? michael : no , if you do that and put the squeeze on her , it 's only gon na prove her point . sonny : yeah . you 're right . you want me to get shawn to talk to her ? michael : [ chuckles ] sonny : what do you want me to do ? anything . michael : i 'd like for you to say that i - i could have a job , you know , here . sonny : i have been thinking about it . michael : and ? sonny : but i do n't want to risk another fight with your mom . michael : dad , i told you i 'll handle mom . sonny : it 's not just that . i 've always kept you at arm 's length when it comes to my organization . michael : yeah , 'cause you 're protecting me , dad , and i understand that . but , look , i told you , this is my chance to help protect you . sonny : you 're my son . it 's not your place to protect me . i do n't want you hurt . can you understand that ? michael : yeah , dad , i understand , but , look , the coffee business is legit . sonny : yeah . and obviously somebody did n't get the message . michael : you 're gon na need an extra pair of hands to help you get things back on track . sonny : i 'm gon na float you a loan until you get a job . michael : thanks , dad , but i want to make my own money . i understand i may be unemployed as an exec , but there 's got to be something i can do . sonny : okay . i have an idea . derek : look , i 'm really sorry to open up old wounds here , although i 'm sure they still feel pretty fresh to you . look , i - i really hate to say this , but it 's pretty clear to me that your father does n't give a damn about you . ava : julian , that 's enough . derek : look , i 'm just trying to be honest with the boy , something that neither you nor sonny can manage . [ sighs ] now , morgan , i asked you a question earlier . you 've had a few minutes to think about it . i 'd really like to know your answer . morgan : what was the question ? derek : why should you give a damn about what our plans are for your father ? morgan : i - i got to go . derek : morgan . look , buddy , hey . [ chuckles ] i - i do n't want any problems here , but by the way you 're behaving , you 've got me a little worried here , kiddo . mostly for you . morgan : oh , thanks . you do n't need to worry about me , though . derek : my advice ... is to forget everything that just happened here . morgan : or else what ? that mr. baldwin , candidate for d.a . , arranged for my escape from miscavige . lucy : nobody will believe you . heather : are you sure about that ? because we had a smoking - hot affair when we were younger . lucy : yeah , during the carter administration . heather : reagan . and what 's a few years between lovers ? [ chuckles ] obviously his attraction for me has n't waned , not a bit . i 'm gon na tell the cops that scotty busted me out . lucy : you go and tell those police whatever you want to , because i will personally vouch for scott . heather : i 'll say that you were in on it with scott , too . you two have a passionate history , too . yeah , maybe you wanted to make it a ménage - a - three with me , just like a page out of `` 50 hues of blue . `` lucy : god , look at the lovebirds flying around the lovebirds ' head ! wow ! scott : you know , lucy , if you have a plan , you should tell me about it right now . lucy : it 's the same plan . same plan . you call the police , because no one is gon na believe this loony lovebird ! right now ! call . just call them . heather : yeah , of course . i 'm sure the police would sooner listen to a woman who stabbed a man because she thought he was a vampire . lucy : oh ! scott : well , now , heather , anybody could make that mistake . lucy : give me the phone . hand the phone over right now . give me the phone . i will call the police myself . give me the phone ! heather : you do that , 'cause i ca n't wait to read the headlines . `` candidate and ex - wife take advantage of a helpless mental patient . `` scott : you know what , heather ? here 's what we 're gon na do . we 're -- we 're gon na look the other way , and you can go back to the nut -- i mean the institution . heather : yes . should be making my way back to miscavige . but i 'm not going anywhere without my blt . franco : sit down . let 's do this . diane : okay , let 's . franco : [ clears throat ] you gon na -- diane : yeah , i just have to hold it steady for you . franco : what 's wrong with you ? diane : nothing . franco : why is derek wells ' name on this contract ? morgan : you threatening me ? derek : threatening you ? [ chuckles ] ava : [ chuckles ] derek : why would i threaten you ? you and your father are on the outs , right ? or i 'm sorry . did i have that wrong , what sonny did to you about driving kiki away from you so [ chuckles ] i mean , michael could have her ? morgan : no , you 're not wrong . derek : okay , so why say anything at all about what you heard here ? just let it go . let business run its course . and you and ava can , uh , pick up where you left off . sam : okay , so victor jerome brought his mistress to the very same bar that ava jerome brought you ? silas : yeah , but you ca n't throw a stick without hitting an irish bar in the new york , and ava and i frequented quite a few . sam : okay , but i kind of think it 's worth checking out . i mean , maybe someone at ryan 's remembers seeing victor or ava . silas : great . i 'm going with you . michael : okay , what do you got in mind ? sonny : uh ... i do n't know if you 're gon na like it . it 's all i got . michael : okay . try me . sonny : how about the restaurant ? michael : pozzulo 's ? sonny : yeah . i mean , you know , has nothing to do with my other enterprises . michael : i thought you did n't want any customers around . sonny : there 's an -- there 's an entrance from the street , and it 's a shame that the restaurant just kind of sits there empty . connie and i , we were gon na redo the place . we were gon na have somebody come in from the city , a chef , and , you know , make it just a nice showcase , but obviously that 's not gon na work out , so ... could work out for you . morgan : nice try , dude . i may be pissed at my father , but he 's still my dad . ava : morgan , stop and think about what you 're doing . morgan : think about what , ava ? how you 've been playing me ? derek : she was n't playing you , son . morgan : oh , sure , she was , with your full approval . and you know what ? you 've been playing me , too . but that 's okay . i 'm not gon na let you screw over my dad . i 'm gon na go tell him everything . derek : that 's not a good idea . morgan : get your hand off me . ava : morgan ! do n't do this ! morgan ! stop ! heather : thanks . i 'll never forget your kindness . and you , scott . scott : oh , lord . what ? heather : thank you for the trip down lover 's lane . i have n't been kissed like that since ... well , i do n't know when . [ smooches , blows ] franco : why is derek wells ' signature on my contract ? diane : because he 's ava jerome 's partner , and his money bought the gallery . franco : you want me to go into business with my ex and the gym rat who 's chasing carly ? diane : he 's ava 's silent partner . he 's not gon na mess with your work . franco : oh , no , no . he 's just gon na make money off of it . no ! no ! he 's a sucker puncher ! and he 's not gon na make a dollar off of my artwork that 's not my artwork , certainly not with carly on his arm ! i am not signing this ! diane : fine . give me the contract . franco : gladly ! diane : now i suggest that you find another gallery to stage your comeback . in the meantime , i 'm gon na send you my bill . franco : why would you do that ? you know i ca n't pay you . diane : my point exactly . gosh , i hope you come up with some genius solution for your financial problems before carly kicks you out of this hotel , before you 're not only penniless , but homeless , shilling your phony art from a blanket on some street somewhere . that is definitely more preferable than working with ava jerome and derek wells . [ door opens ] ava : i could n't stop him . derek : of course you could n't . ava : what is that supposed to mean ? derek : it means you 're being reckless and not nearly as savvy as you think . you should have thrown morgan out on his ass the moment he started snooping ! ava : i needed to keep him close ! away from sonny 's influence so we could turn him ! derek : oh , this is n't about sonny or our plans for him . you needed to keep morgan around 'cause you 're still stuck on that doctor . sam : you want to come with me ? silas : mm - hmm . sam : what about your patients ? silas : those leeches ? i do n't care about them . that was for lucy . sam : yeah , i know . silas : but , um , i imagine there 's a guy in a white coat that can cover my shift for a couple days . sam : are you sure ? i mean , you do n't have to go with me . silas : no , actually , i - i do have to go with you . i sold my place in the city , and , uh , i have to go see the bank and the lawyer . and besides , were n't we planning on spending some time together without any interruptions ? sam : yes , we were , but you -- you were supposed to surprise me . silas : surprise . sam : [ chuckles ] all right . silas : hey , look , we 'll go to new york , visit this place ryan 's , we 'll have a couple beers . maybe we get some answers . sam : sounds good to me . ava : my being with morgan has nothing to do with silas . derek : oh , of course not . you 're obviously with him for his sophisticated sense of style and his sparkling wit , `` dude . `` ava : and i really do n't think he 's gon na tell his father about us . derek : [ sighs ] and you also thought you had him under control . he seemed pretty determined to me . carlos , get in here . ava : why are you calling carlos in ? derek : [ sighs ] ava : what are you gon na do ? derek : what do you think i 'm gon na do ? i 'm having that kid taken out before he spills his guts to sonny about us . sonny : what do you say , michael ? you want to make this restaurant into something real ? michael : you do realize i have no experience in this whatsoever . sonny : i have no doubt that whatever you want to do , you 'll succeed . it 's just a matter of whether you want to do it . michael : yeah , i do . sonny : all right . now we just got to get your mom on board . you know how hard that is . michael : well , i 'll tell her i 'll , uh , always have a table waiting for her . sonny : you better . michael : dad , thank you . i really appreciate it . sonny : no , thank you . you 're doing me a favor . you know , after everything that has gone down , i ... it 's just great to have your son close to you .

[ scene_break ] nathan : how did maxie 's bracelet end up in your room ? claudette : i do n't know . i 've been kind of busy introducing my daughter to her father . nathan : oh , which father is that ? me , griffin ... ? claudette : nathan , stop it . i told you . i said that charlotte was your daughter , because i thought a cop would be a better protector than a priest / doctor . nathan : that is assuming there is any real danger . claudette : i swear to you , this room was ransacked . someone is looking for me . someone 's after me . nathan : but instead of finding you , they found maxie instead , and they took her . claudette : i do n't get it . why would anybody want to kidnap maxie ? nathan : it 's mistaken identity . they -- the kidnapper must have thought that maxie was you . [ scene_break ] maxie : oh . oh . [ sniffles ] oh , my god , i did it ! stupid jerk . he duct - taped me into that chair . why did he have to lock the door , too ? okay . so , my options are i can pick the lock or i can break the door down . [ scoffs ] right . okay , i 'm gon na need equipment . equipment . let 's see here . what do we have ? wo n't work . um ... gross . okay , um ... uh ... oh , god . shut ... up . [ sighs ] please have power . please have power . [ cell phone beeps ] maxie : oh , my god . it does . [ scene_break ] nathan : yeah , this is detective nathan west with the pcpd . we have reason to believe that a woman was kidnapped from your hotel . i need you to pull security footage from every exit in the last 18 hours . her name is maxie jones . she 's my fiancée . i will text you a picture of her . yeah , she 's missing . this -- this hotel was her last known location . yeah , thanks . [ knock on door ] dante : hey . nathan : hey . thanks for getting here so fast . dante : yeah , of course . i was just in the parking garage . maxie 's car is still there . so let me get this straight . someone took maxie , thinking they were taking claudette . nathan : well , according to claudette , when she got back to her room , it had been ransacked . claudette : housekeeping must have picked up before nathan got here . [ cell phone rings ] nathan : west . did you spot my fiancée ? maxie : nathan ! it 's me . [ scene_break ] kevin : i have my eye on the pan - fried possum . what are you thinking ? laura : i 'm sorry . what 'd you say ? kevin : i - i was teasing . you seem a little preoccupied . laura : oh . yes , i -- i am . i 'm sorry . i really am . i , uh ... [ sighs ] when i came off the elevator , i , uh ... passed anna 's table , and i overheard ... them mention valentin cassadine . [ scene_break ] anna : i - i do n't really picture claudette as some helpless innocent that valentin led astray . griffin : oh , `` innocent `` may be a bit of a stretch , but claudette was divorced from nathan , i broke off our relationship , then she had a baby without any means of support . and i 'm sure she was lonely , desperate , but i ca n't help but wonder how differently charlotte and claudette 's life would 've been had i been there for the two of them . anna : i wish she could 've told you she was pregnant . you know ? and -- and even if you did n't want to be with her , you could have supported them financially . griffin : maybe she was afraid that i would n't care . anna : well , then , she 's a fool . because look how invested you are now . i mean , you 've barely found out that she 's your daughter , and you 're already trying to protect her and her mother . [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie -- maxie , where are you ? whose phone is this ? maxie : i do n't know . i 'm not sure . i found a burner , and ... thank god it had power . nathan : tell me where you are . i 'll come and get you . maxie : no , i -- i do n't -- i do n't know . um , he -- he brought me to a basement , and the door is locked from the outside . i ca n't get out . nathan : what do you know about these people who are after you ? where would they have taken maxie ? claudette : i do n't know . all i know is they 're after me . nathan : okay , max , did you notice anything about the drive to this room ? maxie : no . he put me in the trunk of his car . nathan : okay , sit tight . i 'm gon na call the station . we 'll have them trace the phone , okay ? maxie : [ voice breaking ] nathan , i do n't think that i can wait . um , he broke something down here , and there 's leaking gas . [ scene_break ] hayden : thank you for letting me use your shower . i feel almost human again . finn : i 'm glad i could help . hayden : at least now i can return the favor . it 's nice to see i have n't lost my touch . finn : oh , so you have a history of parting middle - aged frat boys from their money ? hayden : [ chuckles ] no , normally i do things a little more harmless , like , uh , -- i do n't know -- getting the bartenders at the country club to serve me when i was underage . things like that . guess scamming is in my blood . or not . it 's weird reminding myself that i 'm not raymond berlin 's daughter . i 'm ... jeff webber 's daughter . finn : mm . so i guess it 's just your own special talent . hayden : well , at least it was for a worthy cause . what are you gon na do with this , huh ? what are you gon na use it for ? are you gon na get a fancy , top - of- the - line microscope or -- i do n't know -- how many test tubes could this much money buy ? finn : [ chuckles ] hayden : [ chuckles ] finn : i have no idea . and i do n't intend on finding out . i ca n't accept that check . [ scene_break ] sonny : i was wrong , and i know it . i -- if i could change [ sighs ] what happened , i - i would do anything in the world to , but you know what ? does n't mean that we ca n't grieve together , we ca n't honor our son 's memory together . carly : you want to honor our son 's memory . sonny : yeah . carly : this is all we have left of him to bury . so , unless you can go back in time and stop that explosion and make sure that morgan gets home safe , unless you can give me something besides a burnt hunk of stone , i do n't have anything for you . i ca n't help you , i ca n't grieve with you , i ca n't even look at you . [ footsteps approach ] kiki : hi . um ... i hope i 'm not interrupting . i went by your house , but graciela said that you were here . i just wanted to tell you -- sonny : we know you 're sorry about morgan . kiki : i am . but it 's not just about losing him . it 's about ... all of the times that i hurt him . you know , every ... every stupid fight that we had , all of our silly arguments that i wish we never had , i wish i could go back , but i ca n't . carly : no , none of us can . kiki : most of all , i hate ... that before morgan died , he was in pain ... because of me . and i just wanted you guys to know that i really loved morgan . [ voice breaking ] i really did , and not enough and not the way that he needed . but i loved him , and i always will . sonny : we know , kiki . carly : okay , you just said on morgan 's last night , you caused him pain . how 's that ? sonny : carly , come on . carly : no ! kiki offered , and i want to know . morgan 's last night ... i want to know what was going through his heart , i want to know what was going through his head . i need to know , kiki . my son 's final moments . [ scene_break ] hayden : what do you mean you ca n't accept this check ? after all that i went through to get it ? finn : well , yes , as much as i appreciate all the effort you exerted to convince that jackass to write you the check while at the same time drinking him under the table -- which is a very impressive feat , i must admit . hayden : well ... thank you . so what 's the problem ? finn : well , beyond my own personal feelings about how that money was procured , um ... he wrote you that check because he thought he slept with you . what happens if he shows up at your door looking for round 2 or , better yet , realizes you tricked him and wants his money back ? hayden : the only memory that guy is gon na have is of his amazing performance last night . finn : which did n't happen . hayden : yeah , but i staged it to make it look like it did . guys are n't that hard to fool . i mean , i bet that guy 's already bragging to his buddies about what a great night he had . finn : is that what you think of men ? hayden : well , not all men . i did appreciate you coming to check on me , although i was handling the situation myself . but the last thing i expected was for you to break down his door . i mean , that was -- that was pretty awesome . oh . finn : no , it 's -- it 's okay . you can -- you can call me awesome . hayden : no . i just remembered something else from last night . i accused you of wanting to sleep with me . [ scene_break ] kevin : well , no wonder you 're distracted , hearing valentin cassadine 's name . that 's an ... unexpected turn . laura : it really was . i do n't want to think about him . it 's the last thing i want to think about . i mean , he 's in prison , and , uh , spencer 's safe in school , right ? so ... time to concentrate on what really matters -- us , our date . kevin : [ scoffs ] works for me . [ both laugh ] [ scene_break ] griffin : thank you for believing me , anna . you 've given me hope that i could actually be a father . anna : well , i 'm just telling you the truth , what i see , you know ? charlotte : i 'm tired of coloring ! i want my mommy . griffin : wow . it has , uh , been a while , charlotte . i wonder what 's taking claudette so long . [ scene_break ] nathan : okay , max , i need you to look around the room and tell me if you see anything that might give you a clue as to where you are . maxie : i already told you that i 'm in a basement , and there 's no way to see outside . nathan : and nothing about the drive ? maxie : i was in the trunk . nathan : okay , what about time ? how long was the drive ? maxie : could n't have been more than 15 minutes . nathan : okay , that 's good . did you -- did you drive over anything like loose gravel or -- or train tracks ? maxie : [ voice breaking ] no . none of that . it was pretty smooth , okay ? and ... wait . okay . there was -- there was one annoying song . nathan : what annoying song ? maxie : you know , the one with the hot dogs ? nathan : an annoying song about hot dogs ? come on , baby . you got to help me out here . i do n't know what you 're talking about . maxie : yeah , you do , nathan . every time we drive by that place , you want to get one . nathan : maxie , what -- when we drive by where ?

anna notices a photo and notification about valentin cassadine and admits to griffin that she knows she 's seen or heard valentin somewhere although she realizes nobody heard of him until the people met him at cassadine island not long ago . laura overhears their conversation and warns them about how dangerous valentin is , from her experience on cassadine island . while she has dinner with kevin , they both conclude they need not be afraid of valentin since he 's probably out of their lives and detained in prison . we do not find out how or why maxie got held captive nor whom the guy is who did it by first mistaking her for claudette . she manages to break free , calls nathan , he goes to rescue her and she appears to be ok . we do not see or hear what has happened to her captor . meanwhile , claudette has left charlotte with griffin , now concluding she will be safe with him . she gets on her flight , without her daughter , to return to canada after knocking griffin out , so he can not prevent her from doing so . and as soon as she 's on the plane , a man sits beside her whom she identifies as valentin cassadine . carly is still distraught and not knowing how to cope with the loss of morgan . she finds out that kiki was with dillon and gave morgan good reason to believe she bailed on him , and so she lashes out at kiki , blaming her for what happened to her son . sonny is calmer and supportive to kiki , assuring her this is not her fault and reminds carly she needs to know the only person she blames is him . she admits she blames more than one person but it does not matter since their son is gone . although sonny wants her to be with him , she continues to tell him that she only sees the man who killed her son when she looks at sonny . they have no reason to believe morgan survived the crash yet have not found his body nor evidence of his death . when dante brings the charred jade necklace that carly had given morgan , which they found in the wreckage , sonny and carly wonder what to do regarding the timing of his funeral . hayden is with finn and they wonder about his future , whether his days are numbered or whether the two of them should plan on having a future together and at that point , they kiss and it appears they are ready to sleep together .

[ scene_break ] jason : the night sam and ric were together , i found alexis outside the lake house . and she had this really bad coughing attack , so i had to take her to the hospital . and i was n't sure , but alexis must 've seen ric and sam . carly : oh , my -- i mean , that -- it 's one thing to walk in on your husband with another woman , but when that woman is your daughter ? it 's horrible . and do n't say anything to me about bobbie because she did n't know that i was her daughter when she found me with tony , ok ? i do n't know . it 's hard for me to have a lot of sympathy for alexis , though . she married the freak . ric is insane . jason : ok , that 's fine . the point is sam just found out alexis has known all along . carly : well , where 's sam now ? jason : she 's with alexis . they 're going to have to talk this out or fight this out -- whatever they 're going to do -- but i 'm worried . you know , sam acts tough , but she 's easily hurt , especially by her mother . no matter what she 's done , no matter how angry she gets , sam wants alexis to love her . carly : then you need go to sam and you need to get sam . you need to tell her that you are not the father of elizabeth 's baby . jason , that 's the best thing you can do for her right now .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : uh -- dr. robin scorpio asked the jackal to father her progeny - to- be . lulu : but she hardly even knows you . spinelli : well , i -- i mean , close friendship is not a factor in chromosomal selection . i mean , she -- she chose the jackal because of his intelligence and genetic superiority . lulu : that was very -- uh -- generous of you to agree . spinelli : well , i mean , it was a -- it was a bit unexpected , but i -- you know i felt it was my -- my duty to comply . just -- just think , the offspring of dr. robin and -- and the jackal is sure t -- lulu : no , this is actually a really uncomfortable subject for me . um , good luck , though . spinelli : stone cold ? was i insensitive in -- in light of , you know , the blond one 's experiences with unwanted pregnancy ? jason : well , she 's concerned . spinelli : why -- why would she be concerned ? i mean , i 'm -- i 'm looking at this with most -- much enthusiasm and -- and confidence . jason : it was a big decision , and you made it very fast . spinelli : i mean , dr. robin seemed eager for a decision . jason : you 're going to father a child and agree to stay out of his or her life . can you do that ?

[ scene_break ] ric : my father is not running the zacchara mob , sonny . he would never risk getting his hands dirty , and he values his prestige and his social contacts far too much . sonny : well , trevor 's arrogant enough to think he can get away with it . ric : there 's a difference between arrogance and stupidity . an association with known organized crime figures is going to destroy a reputation my father spent years cultivating . sonny : i do n't think trevor planned on running the business , i think it just kind of fell in his lap . you see , anthony is insane and he 's been deteriorating for years , and trevor 's had to cover that up , and he 's been taking more control of the business . ric : so you 've -- you 've met with anthony zacchara ? sonny : yep . he 's a recluse who 's surrounded by guards and keepers , while your father runs the organization . ric : but , you see , my father was desperate to find johnny zacchara . if anthony is as helpless as you say he is , then why would trevor even bother ? sonny : anthony is certifiable , but he still has power . and i 'm telling you , if your father loses control of him , we 're all in a bloodbath . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal appreciates stone cold 's words of wisdom , but my situation differs greatly r own . see , i will be a father by genetic sample only . my -- my dna will be harvested to conjoin with dr. robin 's egg in the sterile environment of a petri dish . after that , she has the freedom to revel in her maternal bliss as i fade into cyberspace . jason : when that baby is born , you 're going to look at that kid and you 're going to see a part of yourself . spinelli : the jackal is familiar with stone cold 's secret pain . jason : i know you , spinelli . you 're going to love that child . spinelli : but , see , the difference is i -- i know what i 'm -- i know what i 'm getting into . i mean , you were -- you did n't know that the small stone cold one existed for months . and then when you did find out , the maternal one urgently requested you do n't even -- jason : and you 're the one who pushed me harder than anyone to claim jake as my own . spinelli : stone cold , you were so miserable . jason : no -- you told me that jake would want to know his real father someday . i 'm just saying your child might want the same thing . spinelli : and i would welcome my progeny 's overture , but i doubt it -- jason : i miss jake all the time . i would n't wish that on anyone .

[ lulu chuckles ] carly : do you trust logan or are you just getting back with him to prove a point ? [ scene_break ] luke : i understand you 're representing anthony zacchara . trevor : well , it 's a professional ethic of mine never to mention my clients ' names . luke : i understand mr. zacchara is looking to do business in port charles . if that 's true , he 's going to need piers for docking , warehousing , transportation . trevor : come to the point , mr. spencer . luke : the point is the only available waterfront property in this town belongs to the estate of lorenzo alcazar . if you 're interested in those holdings , you have to deal with me as a middleman . trevor : if any of this were supposedly true , are you really in a position to deliver that property ? luke : i 'm in a position to open negotiations . trevor : well , i might call you back soon . till then , i have some other business to take care of . luke : certainly . my card . trevor : thank you . [ scene_break ] sonny : for trevor to continue to run the business , he has to keep anthony quiet -- that 's where johnny comes in . ric : oh , so he 's his father 's keeper ? sonny : well , apparently , he 's , you know , obsessed with his son , and trevor uses johnny to placate him . ric : in other words , they have to make sure that johnny stays at home -- sonny : but he does n't want to stay at home . ric : and if johnny runs off , then they run the risk of anthony going after him . sonny : exactly . trevor has to keep anthony out of sight , and , you know , the zacchara 's ' reputation for violence and power is what gives the business its muscle . but nobody can know that anthony 's insane , and that trevor 's running the show . ric : interesting theory . but what do you expect me to do about it ? sonny : well , you 're always looking for a high - profile takedown . why do n't you bust trevor ? i mean , he 's head of a crime family , he 's guilty of extortion and murder -- come on , ric -- ric : so you 're honestly suggesting that i arrest my own father ? sonny : you hate him . why do n't you -- now is your chance to put him away for life . i mean , is n't that what he deserves after the way he 's treated you all these years ?

[ scene_break ] lulu : what would i be trying to prove , exactly , by getting back with logan ? carly : well , you could be trying to prove that everyone was wrong about him . lulu : i am way past that . carly : or you could be on the rebound . lulu : from what ? carly : why do n't you tell me a little bit about what happened the last time you saw johnny zacchara . lulu : i 'm sorry , that is way out of left field . carly : no , see , i 've been on the rebound so many times . i know what it looks like . lulu : no , no , no , no ! this is -- no , this is nothing like -- carly : okay . lulu : with you going from sonny to alcazar or whatever . what i have with logan is some serious history , and when i got into that car with johnny , i was rebounding from logan . carly : you sat up talking to him all night long . lulu : yeah , we had fun -- no big deal . carly : yeah , then you disappear with him a few nights later . lulu : yeah , well , he actually took off with me , and i did n't really have much choice in the matter . carly : and then when his father 's men abducted you and took you back to the estate , johnny showed up and rescued you . lulu : yeah , and he tried to pay me off and shove me out the front door . well , i guess our joyrides are over -- good riddance . carly : i think you 're overcompensating . i think you 're getting back with logan , because you want to prove you do n't feel anything for johnny zacchara . lulu : johnny and i barely know each other . carly : that 's why you disappeared with him twice . lulu : the only thing we have in common is that we have an urge to run away from our lives . although , johnny 's life seems a lot worse than mine . [ scene_break ] johnny : you wanted to see me ? anthony : where have you been ? johnny : i was down in the gym working out . anthony : you 're lying . johnny : i was on the treadmill -- you can go down and look if you do n't believe me . anthony : you leave without permission , disobey your own father . you 're a liar -- just like all the rest of them , even that worm trevor . johnny : i 'm here now , okay ? i did n't leave . i have n't left . anthony : but you will . you think i wo n't know , but i 'll find out . i always do . you know the only one i could ever trust was your mother , and she betrayed me , too . johnny : you want to go for a walk in the garden -- anthony : she died and left . it 's hell to be left !

[ knock on door ] kate : i 'll come back later . sonny : no , this meeting 's over . ric : you know what , just out of curiosity , kate . has sonny tried to sell you on this whole theory that trevor 's a secret mob boss ? [ scene_break ] sam : why are you defending elizabeth when she hurt your brother ? nikolas : look , she 's working right now . it 's not acceptable to talk about this here . sam : some people might find it unacceptable that elizabeth married lucky without even bothering to tell him that she slept with jason and -- she 's stalking him . coming up with any excuse in the book to spend time with him . nikolas : sam , sam ! what happens between elizabeth and lucky is their own business . sam : hello -- i was living with jason at the time . nikolas : just let it go . sam : thank you , cousin nikolas . where would i be without you ? elizabeth : oh -- thanks . she just walked right up and started in on me . nikolas : it seems that she 's upset about more than just losing jason . she just ca n't let it go . [ scene_break ] jason : elizabeth 's divorce is none of my business . emily : well , yeah , diane probably gave you all the details . jason : diane wo n't violate attorney / client privilege . emily : the point is elizabeth is now officially free , and i helped her move into this cute little house that she 's renting . jase , you should see it . jason : i 'm glad she 's happy . emily : elizabeth 's about as happy as she can be while she 's separated from you which is n't very happy at all . and from the way you 're hurting , jase , i can see how much you miss her , too . love is too precious to waste , so why should you and elizabeth be apart ?

[ scene_break ] kate : sonny does n't have to sell me on anything . i weigh the evidence and form my own opinion . ric : oh , come on , kate . you were trevor 's mistress for five years . do you honestly believe that he was secretly running the zacchara family all of that time ? kate : like you , trevor is driven , ambitious , and morally bankrupt . ric : well , it 's interesting how quickly you turned against him . kate : trevor framed me on phony drunk driving charges . he made me lose my position at `` couture , `` and he tried to take everything else i 've ever worked for . ric : well , maybe he was just adjusting to the fact that you were becoming so close with sonny . sonny : make your point , ric , or get out of here . ric : you know , the part about this that is so fascinating me is your assertion that anthony zacchara is crazy . sonny : i met the man , ric . he 's in no position to choose his own suits , much less run a business . ric : right , well , i can see how that would happen , right , sonny ? a man , none too stable to begin with -- he wallows in violence and grief until he goes completely insane . sonny : are we going to do this now ? ric : did you recognize zacchara when you met with him , sonny ? i mean , come on , maybe he is bipolar , too , huh ? maybe he tried to get treatment and then , you know -- how does it all work with chemical imbalances in the brain , sonny , huh ? you start thinking you 're normal , you forget your medication , and then , boom , you 're in trouble ? maybe that 's what happened with zacchara , and now he 's barking at the walls . wonder how long it 's going to be before that happens to you . sonny : he 's trying to scare you away from me . is it working ?

[ scene_break ] jax : you were right . you told milo and max to sit and stay and they have n't moved an inch . brenda : yeah , well , it 's their job to abide by me . i like them , i just , oh , i get so -- jax : frustrated with the lack of control over your life ? it makes you want to rebel . brenda : god , i love how you know me . jax : i paid attention . brenda : i know . you did . jax : so how is everything ? brenda : not so great . jax : you want to tell me about it ? brenda : you might not want to hear about it . it has to do with sonny . jax : it always has to do with sonny . brenda : sorry . jax : okay , well , i 'm prepared to listen as long as you do n't tell me that you and sonny are going to elope or something crazy . brenda : no , no . no . we are not . i actually told sonny that we ca n't be together , and he did n't want to hear it . jax : oh . brenda : so i asked him to leave because i was just afraid , you know , that i was gon na have one of my panic attacks . he finally did , so . jax : it 's unbelievable , you know . he never sees how he hurts you . i hope you mean it when you say you 're done with him . 'cause you need to find somebody who knows how to treat you . brenda : i know . [ scene_break ] dante : so i 'm digging deeper in brenda 's movements from 2003 to the present . claire : well , what do you mean ? i thought you already gave me the information . dante : well , not really . i mean , i gave you the boiler plate -- where she lived , where she traveled to , the fact that she 's always paid her taxes on time . except that 's not what you 're interested in . you are more interested in who she 's ever been involved with , right ? you want to see if there 's someone who could potentially take her away from sonny . claire : look , i 'm not proud of the fact that i 'm looking around the past of someone who could be considered romantic competition . dante : others have bent the rules for way less . claire : anyway , according to sonny , he and brenda are no more , at least for the time being . dante : well , then you got nothing to worry about . claire : oh , i 'm a fed and he 's a monster . there 's always something to worry about . enough about sonny . let 's get to the matter at hand . i want to discuss police protection for brenda . [ scene_break ] ethan : maya had nothing to do with doctoring luke 's test results . that was all me . monica : i mean , you 're luke 's son , so you 're obviously good at the con , but for this one it takes medical know - how , and that 's maya . maya : it was me , okay . no excuses or justification . so , should i go clean out my locker ? monica : you falsify another patient 's records and the answer 's yes . ethan : another patient . so we 're gon na let this one slide ? monica : tracy is basically a dreadful human being . she has even been more dreadful since she tossed luke out . living with her has been miserable . so if she buys into your scheme and takes upon herself the job of nursing luke back to health , then maybe the quartermaines can have just a little peace . so right now , i 'm wishing you all the success in the world . [ scene_break ] tracy : i will see you through your recovery . when you 've returned to your usual infuriating self , we 'll see where we stand . until then , what can i do for you ? luke : just one thing . do me the honor of becoming my wife . [ scene_break ] siobhan : our relationship , and i use the term loosely , is based on people trying to kill us , not hearts and flowers . sure , the sex was fantastic , but it 's not like we 're together . lucky : i do n't know what to call us either . but i think we have more going on than our mutual need to dodge bullets . besides , that could all end soon . siobhan : how ? lucky : i had a meeting with the guy who heads up brenda barrett 's security detail . we came up with a plan that could expose the balkan within the week . siobhan : well , that 's fantastic . brenda can resume her fabulous life in rome , you can pick up where you left off with the ex , i 'll go back to ireland , and we 'll never see each other again . [ scene_break ] sam : mmm . jason : i was so happy to come home and find you . sam : well , i have been staying away because of brenda , but i decided i am not gon na do that anymore . jason : good . do n't do that . sam : mm - mmm . jax had perfect timing . jason : you know , if this whole thing with lucky works out , brenda will be gone . sam : a phony kidnapping is a workable plan , with one minor adjustment . jason : what ? sam : you ca n't use brenda as bait . jason , you 've got to use me . [ scene_break ] dante : jason is more than capable of taking care of brenda . claire : jax does n't think so , and he has a point . jason 's life revolves around violence . brenda can easily end up a casualty in a completely unrelated incident . and i would like to keep brenda safe for my own reasons . dante : what are those reasons ? claire : well , if something happened to her , sonny 's guilt would be off the charts . and that would definitely kill anything that we have going on . dante : whoa . okay . well , then why do n't you talk to ronnie and from now on we can just go -- claire : no , i 'm pulling rank on this . i want you . dante : no . i have way too much on my plate . claire : not anymore . i 'm taking you off the zacchara car bomb . i 'm gon na reassign another investigator . okay ? so what 's the problem here ? i thought this was what you wanted . dante : yeah , i did . but i wanted to be reassigned because of conflict of interest , not to free me up so i can baby - sit somebody . claire : not up for debate . as of right now , you are officially brenda 's bodyguard . [ scene_break ] lulu : i know this sounds ridiculous , but if i do n't get brenda on the cover , it could cost me my job . that 's how badly kate wants this . carly : kate wants to undermine me and jax . she knows how much i 'll hate having brenda on the cover . she 's hoping that jax and i will have a big blow - up fight and it 'll end in divorce . lulu : no . i mean , you do n't even need to play along with that . carly : i do n't ? lulu : carly , brenda said she would do it if jax would ask her personally . and we both know he 's not gon na because you have a problem with it . look , carly , i 'm asking you , i 'm begging you , just tell jax that you 're okay with this . [ scene_break ] brenda : it 's not sonny 's fault . it really is n't . it 's me . i just become a crazy person when i 'm around him . it does n't matter ; it 's over for good this time . jax : well , for now . until he decides you 've had enough time to get over him , and then he 'll come after you again . 'cause that 's the way he is , you know . he does n't care who he hurts in the process . it 's the way he 's always been . brenda : it really is over for good . i know that for sure this time . you know , i 've grown up and i know what i can and ca n't have in my life . anyway , i 'll be okay . jax : and what if you 're not ? brenda : maybe i 'll just call my sponsor . jax : and that would be me . right ?

[ scene_break ] anna : ah , it 's in pretty good condition . means it has n't been here long . i do n't think it has anything to do with the shooting last night , though . dante : it could . it 's a pretty good vantage point , clear line of sight for seeing bernie and joe and jason showing up . anna : all right . so if we 're correct and scully was under orders to take out bernie , and then whoever gave those orders , maybe they showed up , they wanted to supervise in person , and they saw things were n't going as planned , and the second shooter stepped in to finish the job . dante : sam . sam : oh , hi . hi , dante . anna : hi , sam . sam : hi . anna : i 'm so sorry for your loss . and is this little baby -- hi , i 'm so happy that you guys are reunited again . sam : i 'm just trying to find my husband . anna : [ sighs ] this is a crime scene right now . we 're just beginning to -- spinelli : well , i 'm sure the commissioner remembers that we are licensed investigators . sam : yes , we are . so , what were you saying about second shooter ?

[ scene_break ] todd : carly ca n't find out that i lied about the baby . diane : well , then it 's a good thing you did n't tell her . i 'm certainly not going to tell her . your daughter is the one to worry about . todd : carly kept going on about how she really wanted it to be jason 's baby , that -- that jason would somehow live on through this kid . diane : yeah , well , i 'm certain that carly was speaking out of pure emotion . unfortunately , franco is the biological father . todd : yeah -- maybe , maybe -- maybe not . diane : would you care to clarify that ? todd : franco 's not the father . jason is . diane : what 's that ? todd : heather switched the dna test to make everybody think that franco was the father , but this is the real dna test . diane : and this is proof that jason is the biological father ? there 's no doubt ? todd : uh , no . diane : well , then , yes . you are absolutely correct . carly would certainly want to know about this . so would the child 's mother , for that . todd : yeah , i feel pretty bad about sam . i do n't know . i -- diane : listen , you do n't need to try and convince me . just paid me a lot of money to be on your side . todd : okay . but this is my point . if heather 's in a coma and jason 's gone , why would n't we tell sam who the father is ? [ scene_break ] anna : jason came down here in response to a phone message from bernie , correct ? sam : yeah . yeah . bernie left him a message and said it was a matter of life and death . anna : do you still have that recording ? because if we can analyze it , there might be something in there we can hear . sam : yes , actually , i do . and i think that 's a really good idea . if we can figure out who the second gunman is , maybe we can figure out where jason is . anna : yeah . sam : perfect . dante : wow , she 's , uh , she 's in some serious denial . anna : oh , i do n't know . that 's what everyone calls it , denial . and you actually feel like it 's hope . then that goes away . that 's when it becomes very painful . sometimes things get turned around , though , and your hope gets realized .

[ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] [ knock on door ] [ knock on door ] finn : i think -- i think somebody might -- might be at the door . hayden : yeah , it 's ... probably housekeeping . i 'm sorry .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i 'm hanging in there , diane . christina and molly are devastated . i ca n't , uh , get together tonight . and now , yeah . i 'm -- i 'm actually with the girls right now . [ scene_break ] nina : you 've brought nothing but pain for everybody around you . you 're slime . listen , julian , you stole the fruit basket that i was gon na bring to carly and sonny . julian : if it helps , uh , you know , that basket did end up at sonny 's . i brought it over there as an -- as an olive branch , a gesture of peace . nina : thank you . julian : you 're welcome . nina : i 'm surprised you 're still breathing . [ scene_break ] max : you know how he gets . i mean , he has n't closed the blinds and started smashing furniture yet , but the way it 's going , it wo n't be long . jason : okay , well , let me know if it happens . max : no , you need to stop him now before he starts to spiral . you 're the only one he 'll listen to , jason . you or carly , but she ca n't even be in the same room with him . [ door opens ] [ sam laughs ] jason : oh , wait , who is this little pirate you brought into my house , huh ? sam : i found him on the street . danny : me ! jason : oh , it 's you ! i did n't recognize you . that 's a great mask . look at you . hey . sam : hey , babe . hi , max . max : hey , sam , how are you ? sam : so good to see you . max : you , too . you , too . excuse me . ohh , hey , whoa , danny . very , very scary , but looking really good , all right ? you take care . think about what i said . jason : yeah , i heard you . max : all right . bye , guys . sam : hey , i have a surprise for you in the kitchen . danny : is it a puppy ? is it scout ? sam : a puppy named scout ? no , it 's a couple cookies . but only two , okay ? what 's going on ? why was max here ? jason : uh , he 's worried about sonny . so am i . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'll kill you if i find out what , ava ? scott : hey , listen ... sonny : hey , hey . scott : ... we 're having a private conversation here , so ... sonny : apparently , it 's about me , two days after my son was killed . what do you know ... that i do n't , ava ? ava : it 's about morgan . it 's about his death . sonny , i know something about it that i have n't told you . [ scene_break ] franco : so , we 're good , right ? [ sighs ] i mean , my mother basically spells out exactly what happened . jordan : look , i will ... certainly look into the possibility that heather webber was culpable , but , guys , this is darkam asylum . it 's a super - max facility . you really expect me to believe that heather webber escaped , then attacked lucas jones , and then returned back to her cell without anyone noticing ? come on . franco : yes , exactly . this is my mother we 're talking about . heather webber is , like , the perfect combination of houdini and lizzie borden all kind of rolled into one very unsettling package . jordan : i 'm sorry , franco , but your mother 's story -- it does n't prove anything . [ scene_break ] tracy : so finn was concerned when you left the restaurant last night with that weimaraner you 'd attracted . i told him to stay out of it . he obviously did n't listen . finn : no , you 're right . you 're right . i - i went , and i found -- i found hayden . tracy : and then what happened ? did you hit her date over the head with a club and then drag her here by her wet hair ? hayden : i did n't need rescuing , thank you very much . tracy : exactly what i tried to tell him . finn : right , no , hayden had already subdued her date by drinking him under the table , but in the process , she had a few too many herself , and she ended up sleeping it off here . tracy : hmm . so , what did you do ? did you seduce him so he would convince me to hire you back at elq with a corner office and executive dining - room privileges ? i would have had more respect for you if you had asked me yourself . [ scene_break ] scott : now , listen , the only thing you need to know about morgan 's death is that you caused it ! sonny : say -- say that again one more time . ava : stop it . sonny : just say it to my face one -- go ahead . say it ! ava : i can handle this . sonny needs to know what really happened . scott : ava , um , listen . um , this is a really bad idea . sonny : no one 's talking to you , blockhead . ava , come over here . i 'm listening . ava : i saw morgan that night . sonny : yeah ? ava : at the floating rib . sonny : mm - hmm . ava : he was drinking . he thought that kiki was breaking up with him . but the bartender cut him off , took his keys . it was pretty obvious that -- that morgan was out of control . and i tried to talk to him . i tried to reason with him . i tried to stop him from leaving in that condition , but he would n't listen to me . and it was only a few moments after morgan left that julian found out that his car was stolen . so i was one of the last people that saw morgan alive . and i ca n't stop thinking about my part in it -- my culpability -- what i should have done instead of what i did . sonny ... morgan 's death is not entirely your fault . it 's my fault , too . scott : ava , that was good . that was quick thinking . ava : you 're the one that stopped me from going after morgan . it was you ! [ scene_break ] alexis : diane , thank you . i really appreciate the offer . i do . but , you know , you take care of max , all right ? he 's gon na need your support . yeah , i got the girls . um ... we 're gon na spend some quality time together , so ... actually , they 're , uh -- they 're -- they 're waiting for me right now , so i - i have to ... yeah . uh , i 'll see you tomorrow . [ sighs ] sonny : hey . alexis : i was just coming in for a refill . sonny : yeah , you might want to reconsider 'cause ava and , uh , baldwin are in there . alexis : yeah , that sounds toxic . you drinking both of those by yourself ? sonny : not anymore . here . [ sighs ] you know ... last time i saw morgan , he was so angry , he could n't even look at me . why could n't i just grab my little boy and tell him , `` look , it 's okay that you got kicked out of school `` ? `` i 'm here for you . i - i 'll always be by your side . `` alexis : there is now way that you could have known . sonny : he was drowning , and he was hurting , and i told him that i was disappointed in him . carly at least reached out to him . i just yelled at him 'cause he was lying . and i let him go out the door and ... [ voice breaking ] ... live out the last few hours of his life . alexis : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] jason : when lily died -- sonny 's first wife -- sonny broke down . i did n't really understand what was going on , so i 'd just bring him more scotch when he asked for it , clean up his messes when he broke things . eventually , he pulled out of it . so when he broke down again , and the time after that , i just did the same thing . eventually , he was diagnosed as bipolar and started taking meds , which are supposed to keep him steady , and they do , usually . sam : usually . jason : yeah . sam : do you think he 's gon na break down again ? jason : according to max , he already started . and , uh ... i 'm really not sure how to stop it . sam : you 've got to try . jason : yeah , but ... what about our plans ? sam : our plans ? jason : yeah . sam : the plans we made this morning about possibly maybe moving to a different town ? jason : yeah , i think it 's a good idea . i 'd like to make that happen . sam : i agree . i do 100 % , but it can wait . sonny and carly -- their kids , their family -- they need us , and we 've got to be there for them . i 've never seen sonny actually break down , but i 've heard that it is really , really bad . and losing morgan -- if it 's because of something sonny did , [ scoffs ] that 's got to be the worst pain in sonny 's life . [ scene_break ] hayden : what are you saying ? tracy : [ laughs ] skip the surprise . it does n't play . so you just happened to spend the night here , and i just happened to get a phone call from finn . hayden : wait ... i 'm the favor ? tracy : oh , please ! hayden : you called tracy and asked her to re - hire me ? tracy : stop asking like you do n't know ! finn : she did n't . she did n't . i -- she did n't know . i - i called you while hayden was sleeping . hayden : i had no idea . finn : listen , i just -- i - i - i called you 'cause i thought if i asked on -- on her behalf that you might accept . hayden would be really good at elq , and i just think that maybe you 're letting your history get in the way . hayden : do i get a say in this at all ? finn : you -- you do n't want the job ? tracy : fine with me . i did n't want to hire her in the first place . finn : be careful you 're not cutting off your nose to spite your face . tracy : well , it 's better than hiring a parasite . hayden : well , that 's -- screw the job ! finn : listen , i 'm sorry . why are you getting mad ? i was -- i was just trying to -- hayden : i know exactly what you 're trying to do . you only made this oh - so- magnanimous gesture because , you 're trying to get rid of me . [ scene_break ] jordan : i will see if i can find any actual proof of heather 's involvement , but as it stands now , we 're still a ways away from actually solving these last two attacks , guys . elizabeth : we were afraid you were gon na say that . franco : yeah , which is why , with elizabeth 's help over the last few days , i 've been gathering more evidence . jordan : what kind of evidence ? franco : well , it took some doing , but i finally figured out which guard helped my mother -- thank you -- escape that night . this is a six - figure check from my mother 's account made out to a rob howell . he 's a guard at darkam . he was on duty that night . you can call the warden if you want . remarkably , right after the attack , he managed to buy himself a condominium just outside of las vegas . this is a copy of the rental agreement , because rob howell rented a car for my mother . and this is another check from my mother 's account made out to a vinnie verde . now , that guy -- jordan : hey , i - i know vinnie verde . he 's a low - level drug dealer . he 's got the iq of just above room temperature . franco : uh - huh . i went to see him , right ? right before i got here . that 's why i was late . and he confessed to me that he sold the derisifol to rob howell . jordan : and how did you get him to cop to that ? franco : i asked him really nicely . come on . do n't you want to check all that out ? is n't that enough evidence to prove that general hospital is safe again to reopen ? jordan : wait here . elizabeth : think it worked ? franco : well , she hates my guts . [ chuckles ] she does . but come on , even jordan ca n't ignore all that evidence . elizabeth : i ca n't believe you did all this . franco : yeah , well ... i could n't let you move to rochester , right ? what would i do without you ? [ scene_break ] jason : i have to find this broker sonny hired . sam : do you even think it matters , if you find this guy or whoever 's responsible for this , if you trace back all the steps and see what went wrong , it 's not gon na bring morgan back . jason : no . and the grief is bad enough , but sonny blames himself . i do n't know what he 's gon na do , and i do n't know how anybody 's gon na stop him . sam : ohh ! danny : mommy , what does this say ? [ scene_break ] ava : i was worried about morgan . i was going after him , and you stopped me . scott : wait a minute , what are you driving at here ? you ca n't pin this on me . i had no beef with morgan . you 're the one that switched the kid 's meds 'cause you wanted to break him up with kiki , and you succeeded . ava : oh , my god . i 'm the one who made morgan think that kiki was sleeping with dillon . i - i saw him earlier at the metro court , and i told him that kiki was with dillon . so i did n't just mess with his meds . i set him up to be jealous . i set him up to have his -- have his heart broken . all i was trying to do was protect my girl . [ voice breaking ] i swear . i just wanted to protect my daughter . [ sobbing ] scott : i know . i know . i know . [ scene_break ] julian : so , tell me , nina , would you miss me , i mean , if sonny wiped me off the face of the earth ? nina : i - i do n't like you . hmm . but i do n't wish you were dead . julian : well , i suppose that 's a kinder sentiment than most people would express to me . nina : um , listen , you only sabotaged my magazine . you did n't dismantle my life . julian : that 's true , nina . i 've brought oceans of pain to everyone i love . my children , especially alexis , and i have a long way to go before i can ... work my way back to her . that 's for sure . nina : oh , julian , listen . try never . julian : well , see , i - i believe you 're wrong there . alexis means everything to me , and if i can somehow redeem myself to my children and alexis , well ... i can die a happy man . [ scene_break ] alexis : i ca n't imagine what you 're going through . i 'm so -- i 'm so sorry . sonny : how 's christina doing ? alexis : well , uh ... she and molly are at home looking at photos of -- of morgan and all the good times that they had together . you know , they were so close -- all of them -- molly , christina , michael , morgan , and -- and you were a big part of bringing them all together . listen , you gave morgan a good life . sonny : carly did n't think so . she left me . alexis : is that why you 're here alone ? [ sighs ] where 's michael ? sonny : uh , he blames me , too . and dante 's trying to find as much evidence as he can so he can charge me ... for the crime of killing my -- my son . alexis : [ inhales sharply ] christina is in your court . she blames julian . sonny : what about you ? do you blame julian ? [ scene_break ] tracy : i was considering hiring you because finn asked me . now i would n't hire you to clean my floors . hayden : i 'm heartbroken . tracy : and , finn ... next time you want a huge favor , make it something simple , like , hmm , smuggling illegal drugs into the country . finn : what just happened here ? hayden : you went to a lot of unnecessary trouble to manipulate me out of your life when all you had to do was ask . finn : manipulate you out -- hayden : do n't worry , finn . as soon as i 'm dressed , i 'm gone . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so , you never told me . how did you get your mother to confess ? franco : well , i just , uh -- i told her the truth -- that if the hospital case was n't solved , that ... i might lose you to rochester . and then i kind of worked her over and finally , she caved and confessed . she did n't know that i had recorded her . elizabeth : is she mad at you ? franco : she 's furious , but it had to be done , right ? i mean , for the sake of general hospital and ... for your sake . at least for mine . jordan : [ clears throat ] franco : okay ! we 're good , right ? everything checked out ? yeah ? my mother 's the final piece of the puzzle ? [ scene_break ] sam : this is a grown - up book . i do n't think it 's anything you 'd be interested in . danny : is it about babies ? sam : `` is it about ... ? `` jason : [ chuckles ] million - dollar question . why do n't you sit down right here ? thank you . sam : okay , you ... for me . jason : i think it 's yours . go ahead . [ chuckling ] sam : oh , okay . um , mommy and daddy are gon na have a baby . you 're gon na be a big brother . jason : mm - hmm . so you know how jake 's your big brother ? well , now it 's your turn . it 's your turn . sam : [ laughs ] so next spring , you 're gon na have a little brother or sister . danny : i 'm gon na be a big brother ? ! sam : mm - hmm . jason : [ chuckles ] danny : that 's way better than a puppy ! jason : [ laughs ] danny : can we name the new baby scout ? jason : uh ... [ laughs ] we can talk about it . come here . give me a hug . sam : scout ? [ scene_break ] scott : you 're gon na have to live with what you 've done . it 's too late for tears . ava : oh , shut up , scott . scott : hey , ava , i 'm not making any judgments here . i 'm here . i 'm still your lawyer . and hopefully , i 'm still your friend . ava : this conversation does n't feel very friendly . scott : well , i - i just do n't want you to get stuck in all of this . come on , ava . we - we - we 've all had regrets in our life . ava : i just want to go home . [ scene_break ] alexis : this all started because of the mess i made giving my testimony . and if i had done my job , he would have been convicted . he would be in prison , and you would n't have felt the need to retaliate . sonny : julian came by my house ... to offer his condolences and ... offer a truce . he 's afraid i 'm gon na kill him . [ chuckles ] alexis : are you ? sonny : want another drink ? alexis : i ca n't . i have to go home . what happened to morgan was a tragedy ... resulting from a whole lot of horrible circumstances . not one single person is to blame . not even you . sonny : [ sighs ] my son 's dead because of you ! [ scene_break ] hayden : as soon as i find my purse , i 'll , uh ... be out of your way . finn : wait . wait . please . please . will you just explain to me -- please explain to me how me calling tracy and asking her to consider you for a job equates to me trying to get rid of you . hayden : you 're so transparent . you 're telling yourself you 're just protecting me from what might be your early death by pushing me away in the kindest way possible . finn : 'cause i do n't want to be your cause . do n't you understand that ? i do n't want to be your excuse for doing reckless things like going up to a stranger 's room or conning some guy into thinking he had sex with you . hayden : oh , come on . it is n't about that , and you know it . you like me . you want me . and that scares the crap out of you because you ca n't let yourself feel anything for any woman other than your wife . [ scene_break ] tracy : ah , commissioner . jordan : ms. quartermaine . tracy : have you made any progress tracking down lucas jones ' attacker ? i 've got to get that hospital open before it gets converted into condos . jordan : actually , we 've got some good news . we 've managed to find the perp . tracy : what ? who is it ? jordan : heather webber . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : to you . not only did you make sure i was well taken care of during my recovery , but you went above and beyond to get that hospital reopened . you gave me back my health and my livelihood . you 're a good man , franco baldwin . franco : aw , shucks . elizabeth : are you gon na tell me how you got that drug dealer to talk ? franco : [ chuckles ] [ chuckles ] i , uh ... can be ... very persuasive . you of all people should know that . elizabeth : oh , come on . just tell me . franco : um ... okay . at the risk of alienating you after having made so much progress , there are times when ... i can appear to revert to my old ways if the right situation arises . elizabeth : do you care to explain that ? franco : a bad man thought i was a very , very , very bad man , and so i just allowed him to think that . does that bother you ? [ scene_break ] julian : thank you . nina : you were going to let alexis go on trial for a murder that you committed , and when that did n't work , you tried to kill her . how do you think alexis is gon na come back from that ? how is she gon na forgive you ? julian : alexis loves me . nina : she does n't look like a woman in love right now . hey , julian . be a decent guy . leave her alone for once . [ scene_break ] scott : do n't listen to him , ava . sonny : i 'm not talking to her . i 'm talking to you . scott : me ? sonny : yeah , you . scott : that 's a good one , corinthos . you 're gon na blame me for your son 's death ? sonny : you won the acquittal for your friend julian . now he 's free to walk , where he should be in prison . and my son would be alive ! scott : it 's called karma , corinthos . you 're a criminal . you destroyed my daughter 's life , and you deserve to lose your son in return . [ scene_break ] finn : you know , when i woke up this morning , you were on my couch . i was just watching you , and ... i felt happier ... and more alive than ... any day since my wife died . maybe you 're right . maybe that scared me a little . maybe ... maybe for a moment , i thought i was betraying her . maybe you scared me a little . i did what i often do , and i , um ... i called tracy . hayden : to take me off your hands ? finn : no , to ... give you something better to focus on besides ... me . then you woke up , and you looked at me . you looked at me , and i kissed you , and ... i promise you , hayden , i was n't thinking about anything else in the world but you . hayden : maybe not . but your wife 's still here . she keeps you in limbo , so you do n't have to feel anything or give yourself to anyone . including me . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] tracy : okay , then . so when do i get the pcpd 's official approval to reopen the hospital ? jordan : i will start the proceedings as soon as i can . tracy : that 's great . so who do i thank ? which detective solved the case ? jordan : actually , uh , the person who brought the evidence in is n't part of the force . tracy : oh , well , i - i suppose that 's appropriate that general hospital be saved by a member of the community . so which civic - minded civilian gave us back our beloved hospital ? jordan : it was franco baldwin . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm not looking at you through rose - colored glasses . i know who you were and who you still can be . franco : you still see the good in me ? elizabeth : i said that to laura at kelly 's before you got there . did you hear me ? franco : i heard you . elizabeth : then did ... ?

[ chuckles ] right here . you can teach him or her how to build pillow forts . jason : yeah , and there 's a lot big brothers can do . uh , you can help scare away monsters out of the closet and help your mom and me keep the baby safe . sam : 'cause that 's what families do . when one of us are in trouble , we 're all there for them . danny : i 'm gon na draw a picture for scout . sam : i think that 's a really good idea . danny : okay . sam : what was the text about ? jason : oh , that was ava . she says sonny 's in trouble . [ scene_break ] sonny : karen died 10 years after she worked for me . i understand it still hurts . and you hate me 'cause you ca n't hate anybody else . you blame me for what happened 'cause you got to put your rage somewhere . let me tell you something . my son died two days ago , because you let that psycho julian free , knowing he was guilty ! scott : your kid was collateral damage in your fight with the jerome family ! if you want to blame somebody , corinthos , you need to look in the mirror ! ava : sonny ! cut it out ! sonny ! sonny : i 'm gon na -- scott : it 's your fault !

[ scene_break ] skye : who the heck is lucky seven ? luke : i think she 's wise to us . she 's figured out that we 're working together and she 's trying to turn the tables on us . this is very interesting . skye : see , this is one of the many differences between us . you see this as progress . i see this as being frozen in place . luke : well , you 're not in prison and i 'm not hopped up in some psych ward . i see that as progress . skye : hey , do n't get me wrong , i happen to love the haunted star . i just never expected to actually be living here . luke : yeah , but see , forward motion is what we 've got . we 're thinking . i think , therefore i am . so let 's keep thinking . let 's -- let 's go over this layout of pentonville and secure faith 's escape route . skye : another plan that 's not going to work . luke : a tad pessimistic today , mabel ? skye : i told you , i 'm not a very good fugitive . luke : i know that . believe me , i know that . so the sooner we get you back to your blue - blood lifestyle , the better off everybody 's going to be . as for your disparaging remark about my plan , we 're here , are n't we ? my plans seem to be working so far . and if this one works , we 'll get faith to confess to duncan 's murder , you 'll be exonerated . then we 'll get her out of pentonville , she and justus will be gone , disappear somewhere , and we 'll be free to track down whoever this woman is who 's trying to ruin our lives . skye : have you given any actual thought as to what you 're going to do if this woman who killed detective duncan and framed you turns out to be your wife ? luke : hey -- skye : the woman who stalked me and tried to murder me , or is anything that laura does ok with you , luke ? luke : look , i know you 're having a bad day -- skye : a bad day ? luke : why do n't you let me handle my wife ! skye : hey , you 're not here exclusively , you know , luke . i 'm here , also . luke : i know . i know , i know , i know . so , what , you want to have a fight about my wife , or do you want to talk about what we do to get ourselves out of this mess ? skye : pay faith rosco to lie for us ? not the best plan . dillon : all right . all right , folks , this is it . i 'm done . this is the last thing i 'm stealing from my family . they 're starting to notice stuff is missing .

[ scene_break ] emily : you 're jumping to a conclusion . nikolas : well , yeah , the obvious one . emily : not necessarily . just because we have n't found helena 's body does n't mean that she is n't dead . nikolas , you said it yourself , helena fell from the same bluff as stefan , and the fall killed him . it makes sense that it killed helena , too . nikolas : yeah , in a perfect world , emily , one where you and i have n't lived for very long . emily : she was washed away by that current , nikolas , i 'm sure of it . nikolas : then who wrote the note , hmm ? the gardener , the launch pilot ? some trespasser who -- emily : look , it does n't matter . no one can blackmail us because we are n't hiding anything . helena came after me with a knife . she meant to kill me . you stopped her and , in the struggle , she fell from the bluff . we told everything to the police . end of story . nikolas : right , except for the part where she fell , emily . i pushed her . someone wants me to pay for that . [ scene_break ] steven : alexis , it 's not uncommon for both parents to be incompatible as marrow donors . that 's why the donor registry exists . alexis : we need to call her other relatives . steven : sure , anyone who 's biologically related . alexis : i have a nephew . his name 's nikolas . [ scene_break ] ric : can i speak to you for a moment ? sonny : what do you want , ric ? ric : i asked you before ; could you please stay away from alexis ? sonny : i 'm just trying to be helpful here . ric : she 's uncomfortable around you on a good day , sonny , ok ? now her child is gravely ill . you want to help ? just keep a respectful distance . sonny : no problem . i 'm just concerned , you know , as a parent , but kristina 's a sweet kid . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : so do you hate me now ? carly : you know , it 'd be a lot easier if i did . but even now , after everything , no . look , lorenzo , honestly , i wish you well . i just -- why do n't you go somewhere else and just start over , start fresh ? lorenzo : carly , if i left now , i 'd be running , and i refuse . carly : but there 's nothing left for you here . lorenzo : well , having nothing left can be very liberating . you can pretty much take any risk you want when you 've got nothing left to lose . but i do n't expect you to understand . you 've got a lot at stake -- your children , your husband , even a father now . you know , i was just thinking how much morgan 's grown since that day a year ago when you shot me in the back and hit your wife in the head . sonny : i thought you were taking morgan home . carly : yeah , actually , i brought him up to visit mama . sonny , i did n't even know lorenzo was in the elevator till the doors had shut . sonny : what did he want ? carly : you heard him . he wanted to remind me that he was around to help deliver morgan . sonny : probably thinks i owe him . he may be right . it 's time i cancel the debt . [ scene_break ] heather : i assume you all received my fax . edward : what fax ? monica : oh , heather was thoughtful enough to fax us a copy of your marriage certificate . edward : really ? heather : i thought i 'd give everybody a head start on getting used to the idea and i was hoping when we got home that your family would be able to share in our happiness . oh , it 's just occurred to me -- you 're all my family , too , now . monica : ugh . alan : just because you dragged my father to the altar , do n't think i 'm going to start calling you mother . heather : heather will be fine . tracy : i have a better idea . how about thieving , gold - digging tramp ? edward : how about that 's enough , tracy . tracy : it 's not enough , daddy . there are things missing all over the house -- silver , crystal , art . monica and i are both missing jewelry . heather : you 're accusing me ? tracy : whoa ! congratulations . you 're not as dumb as you look . monica : all right , in the interest of family solidarity , i wo n't press charges if everything is back in place by morning . heather : you are looking at the wrong person . and as much as it pains me to say this , it seems to me you should shift your gaze to the more likely suspects , namely dillon and brook lynn . these are two teenagers running around the house completely unsupervised . they have constant access , anything they want . i know dillon is struggling to live on his own . maybe this is how he 's supplementing his allowance , by pilfering from the family . tracy : how dare you . edward : actually , he does look like a delinquent . i mean , just look at his hair . heather : i 'll let you - all sort it out . i 'm going to go upstairs and freshen up . excuse me . my bags are still in the car . bring them upstairs . alice : i do n't take orders from you . heather : you do now . [ scene_break ] lois : honey , a person 's word is a person 's bond . you made a commitment to sing . you signed a contract with simon niles of your own free will . brook lynn : yeah , well , that 's debatable . lois : did i hold a gun to your head ? i think you 'll remember that 's not the way it happened . no , you decided that you were ready for a career , so now there are people you 're responsible to , so , no , you do n't get to ditch rehearsal because currently you 're unhappy with your mother 's social life . brook lynn : look , i 'm not singing until dad comes and asks me to sing , all right , if in the event that he even does that . and , oh , by the way , while you 're with lorenzo alcazar , you have no say over my career . lois : i heard your ultimatum the first four times you gave it . fortunately , your dad 's back from his business trip and he should be here any minute . finally . you were supposed to meet us 45 minutes ago . ned : i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . i was at the hospital , so -- lois : is something wrong ? ned : kristina has been diagnosed with a blood disease . lois : ned , i 'm so sorry . ned : she needs a bone marrow transplant . so i got tested , but i 'm not a match . brook lynn : maybe i am . i mean , after all , kristina is my little sister . [ scene_break ] nikolas : look , suppose this unknown witness or whatever had a camera and took pictures of me pushing helena off the cliff . emily : why do you keep going to the worst - case scenario ? nikolas : well , what do you think the note was about , emily ? emily : someone is playing mind games , nikolas , trying to make us act and feel guilty . nikolas : ok , then who would do that other than helena ? hey , any news ? lucky : no , not yet . we 're dredging for helena 's body on the shoreline , but the forensics people agree there 's no way that she could 've survived that fall . [ phone rings ] nikolas : hello ? alexis : it 's alexis . i need you to come over to the hospital right away . nikolas : are you all right ? alexis : it 's kristina . my little girl is really sick . she has this thing called rylodysplastic anemia and she needs a bone marrow transplant , and i 'm not a match . nikolas : all right , i 'll be there right away , ok ? alexis : thank you . i thought you left . sonny : no , i 'm not here to bother you . i 'm just looking for alcazar . you have n't seen him , have you ? alexis : you 're going to have to forgive me . i have n't been able to keep track of the local criminals . i have more important things on my mind . sonny : alcazar . this has got to be the last time i catch you with carly or my children . lorenzo : or what ? you 're going to take a hit out on me like you did durant ? sonny : your innocent act does n't fly with me . i know you tried to frame jason for shooting durant , but your plan was n't thorough . the shooter left a latent fingerprint on the weapon for steven webber to find , but there was n't any powder or residue on jason 's hand or clothing . so what you really did was you wasted everybody 's time and you left a federal prosecutor you shot alive to come after you for attempted murder . screwed up . but this mistake could be fatal . lorenzo : corinthos seems to think you 're going to arrest me . john : yeah , well , unfortunately , i have no proof of mr. alcazar 's involvement in my shooting . lorenzo : of course not , because sonny 's the perpetrator , not me . you know , there 's a history here . a year ago , he shot me in the back when i was helping deliver your grandchild . sonny , why do n't you tell your father - in - law how you put a bullet in his daughter 's head , huh ? why do n't you tell him what a coward you are ? sonny : you 're going to die , and -- ric : sonny ! do n't do this . not now . this man is the least of your problems . [ scene_break ] steven : kristina has a condition called rylodysplastic anemia . nikolas : alexis already explained . she needs a bone marrow transplant . steven : yeah . alexis : nikolas has already done this before for his little sister , and that worked out really well , did n't it ? nikolas : right , yeah , it 's as if lesley lu were never sick , and hopefully the same thing will happen with kristina . steven : well , that 's excellent . the first thing we have to do is have you take a test to see if you 're a compatible donor , so i 'll take you to the lab . nikolas : ok . i 'll be right there . try not to worry , ok ? alexis : thank you for doing this . nikolas : ok . carly : alexis . alexis : i thought you left . carly : i went home . i had to take morgan back . but listen , really , i need to speak to you alone . alexis : i am not going to tell sonny that he is kristina 's father until there are no other options . right now , i still have hope and i think she 's going to be fine .

[ scene_break ] skye : heather managed to trick edward into marrying her , and you 're just now mentioning it ? dillon : yeah , it 's not exactly like i like to think about it , and there 's nothing anybody can do . i mean , my mom already tried . and the fact of the matter is my grandfather 's a grown guy , ok ? if he wants to marry a gold digger or whatever , he 's welcome to . skye : edward adored lila . heather 's no substitute . this has to be about him being overcome by grief , and that -- that heather is taking advantage of him , that evil witch . luke : which evil witch ? skye : heather webber . she manipulated edward into marrying her . luke : you do n't say ? skye : do n't tell me you 're actually happy about this sham of a marriage . dillon : yeah , dude , ripping off my family is one thing . being happy that my grandfather is marrying a fortune - hunter ? kind of cold . luke : look , i could care less who eddie spends his nights with unless it serves us , and this just might . skye : how ? luke : well , heather snaked her way into a fortune here . and she 's pretty smart . she 's not going to let go of it easily . in fact , i wager by the end of the week , she 'll have control of ed 's checkbook . skye : i still do n't see how this is cause for celebration . luke : it could be . it could be if she is the source of the income that we need to clear your name , and she will be that if i can convince her .

[ diane sighs ] carly : the killer is sending me messages , so i have to go to the ball to draw them out , but you 're right -- i should have jason there as backup . diane : great , let 's call him . i 'll wait till he arrives . carly : no ! i ca n't tell him that i 'm meeting leticia 's killer . i 'll just have to make him take me to the ball , and it 's perfect because jax ca n't go , so jason can take me and he always carries a gun , so there 's no problem there . diane : this whole line of thought is problematic ! carly : no , it 's perfect . jason and i will go the ball together , and when i get there , i 'll text the killer and tell the killer where to meet me . see , the tricky part is going to be getting jason into position . i can figure that out when i get to wyndemere . the hard part , though , is going to be getting jason to actually take me to the ball because he hates dressing up and he -- diane : carly , do n't do this . it 's not going to work . carly : it is perfect -- are you kidding me ? you are brilliant ! thank you , diane . diane : yay , whoopee for me ! carly , you could be leading jason into an ambush . carly : jason and i are a great team , okay ? we 're going to be fine . diane : look , if you love jason as much as you claim to , then you have got to warn the man that he 's -- jax : hey . carly : hey . jax : what 's she doing here ?

dominic : you need to stop talking . kate : um ... no . you need to start listening . there is an aspect to this situation that you could n't possibly understand . look , it makes sonny immune to you and you immune to sonny . dominic : if sonny finds out the truth , i 'm dead . kate : no , it depends entirely on what truth we 're talking about . olivia : not another word , connie . not another word . you have no right to do this .

[ scene_break ] michael : i mean , it all makes sense now . the memories are starting to fit together . you know , jerry told me that claudia set up the hit , but something went wrong , and that 's why she kept saying she was sorry . you know , they kept telling me everything because they thought i was never gon na wake up . kristina : are you sure these memories are real ? michael : yes . kristina : then you have to tell dad . michael : well , if i do , what do you think he 's gon na do to claudia ? [ scene_break ] claudia : so , you think the south american partners are glad to see us go ? sonny : well , you know what ? they 'd rather wine and dine us to make it clear that they 're on board . uh , but the fact that we 're leaving now gives what happened to mo verde a chance to sink in . and the fact that you took that gun out of your purse lets everybody know that you saved my life . claudia : not that you did n't have it covered . come on . sonny : what i 'm saying is , now everybody knows that the corinthos and zaccharas are a powerful team , and nobody will even dare challenge us . claudia : that 's what this party 's about , right ? my birthday 's just an excuse . sonny : no , i told you i 'm gon na throw you a birthday party . it will send a message to everyone that , uh , nothing will ever be the same .

[ scene_break ] robin : emma 's sleeping . i had a very interesting conversation about the individual versus society in medieval japan . patrick : what 's that ? robin : okay . talk to me . patrick : remember the first time that claudia came into the er ? i do n't remember why she was brought in , but i remember the terrible things she said to you when she found out that you were hiv - positive . remember ? she did n't even want you to touch her . robin : claudia 's an idiot . patrick : yeah . and i 've despised claudia ever since that evening . everything she stands for . robin : which makes it very difficult to know how to proceed , since we just helped jason find evidence against her . you know , i 've been thinking about it , too . patrick : see , the thing is , robin , if claudia was sick , if she was dying , we would try d help her . we would try and save her . we just did when she was in the car accident . robin : right . but how does that apply to this situation ? patrick : assuming jason finds proof that claudia 's responsible for michael 's shooting , we both know what sonny 's gon na do . so where does that leave us ? do we warn claudia ? do we just look the other way ? [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm gon na take care of claudia . she 'll pay for what she 's done . sam : you 're gon na have to tell sonny first . jason : sonny 's got a lot going on right now . sam : you do n't think he 's gon na notice if claudia just disappears ? look , i understand why you do n't want to say anything to sonny . he 's gotten a lot closer to claudia than anyone has ever expected , and even with the evidence on these cds , he still might order you to back off , and that puts you in an impossible position . jason : well , i 'm gon na have to think of something , because doing nothing is not an option . sam : okay , well , then why do n't we look at it from sonny 's perspective for a second . when all of this happened , claudia had every reason to believe that sonny was gon na kill her brother . so sonny just might say claudia taking a hit out on him is just business . jason : okay , michael getting shot was n't just business . claudia hired someone totally incompetent , who fired with a child in the room . sam : i know , but sonny just might say that it is n't claudia 's fault , that ian made a terrible mistake , he paid for it with his life , and it 's over . [ scene_break ] kristina : you ca n't be serious , michael . tell me you realize claudia does n't deserve to die . michael : i felt so close to dad that night , you know . going to the warehouse was a huge deal . i was trying to be all cool . but something happened . i do n't know if i 'm ever gon na remember it , but i just know what people told me . ian devlin pulled the trigger , and my life stopped . kristina : no , it did n't . you 're fine now . michael : yeah , but i 'm gon na be messed up on some level for the rest of my life because of claudia . she was trying to kill our father but messed it up . she did n't get it right . why should n't she have to pay for that ? kristina : what happened to you was terrible . of course you 're going to think about revenge . but you ca n't really want it to happen . claudia , i 'm sure she never meant to hurt you . michael : yeah , she meant to kill dad . how can you expect me to forgive her for that ? kristina : well , dad 's fine , too , and he and claudia seem very cool together . michael : so wait , you do n't think i should tell him after all ? you think i should just let dad stay with a woman who tried to kill him and shot me instead ? kristina : if these memories are even real . maybe claudia 's innocent , and maybe you 're just dreaming this whole thing up , just tike you freaked out when kiefer wanted to take me home . michael : i 'm talking about a woman who put me in a coma for a whole year , and you 're making this about kiefer . about some guy who -- who talked you into having sex with him and does n't even bother to call you . kristina : when did you get so mean ? michael : you know what ? i 'm sorry , kristina . i should be protecting you from this , not asking you to help me out of it . i 'm sorry . mike : hey . hey . you okay , honey ? kristina : yeah , grandpa . he 's just in one of his moods . mike : yeah . well , sweetheart , he gets that from his daddy . kiefer : hi , k. did you miss me ?

[ scene_break ] carly : yeah , i want to up the rental fee by 20 % because sonny gave us such short notice . mm - hmm . and i want to charge him $ 50 -- no , make that $ 100 for every reservation we have to cancel . go with the most expensive wine and liquor . and we 're going to have to hire a complete wait staff , so just go ahead and add 20 % gratuity , although sonny tips really well . yeah . i 'll call the florist first thing in the morning . oh , make sure you get some more insurance . you know , when sonny throws a party , anything can happen . absolutely you tack that insurance onto his bill . thanks , marty . sounds great . oh , look , if there 's any other questions you have , just go high - end . yeah . sonny can afford it . okay . bye . what ? jax : what are you doing ? carly : sonny likes to impress people . we need money . everybody 's happy . jax : really ? are you sure that 's all it is ? carly : well , except for the part where i 'm gon na stick it to my ex for every dime that i can because he wants to throw a stupid party for his insane wife , and maybe if the bill 's high enough , at some point he 's gon na look across the room of flowers and overpriced food and wine and think maybe claudia is n't worth it ! jax : has it ever occurred to you that sonny and claudia are staying together because they 're alike and they actually deserve each other ? [ scene_break ] jason : no matter how much i hate claudia or how much she deserves to pay ... you 're right . what happens to claudia has to be sonny 's choice . sam : okay , all right . so let 's just keep on walking through this . all right ? sonny listens to the tapes . he agrees that claudia 's guilty . but it 's just business , right ? they make for the perfect pair , their marriage is good , michael seems to like her , claudia continues to guilt sonny over kristina . it makes for a powerful combination , and we both know how sonny thinks . he might just say that she has already been punished enough and chalk it up to a hit that went bad . jason : i do n't want to see that happen . [ sam sighs ] sam : i do n't know . sonny is already carrying so much guilt , he might not be able to handle the guilt of claudia 's death on his conscience . what if he tells you to back off ? are you willing to let that go ? [ scene_break ] kristina : [ sighs ] thanks for taking me home . kiefer : yeah . well , i was n't gon na leave you stranded at kelly 's . you know i care about you , right ? i proved that the night of the accident . kristina : i know . kiefer : look . i do n't want us to just be like some casual hookup . i hope you understand that . and if you do n't , that 's okay , too . we can just forget about thursday . kristina : no . i 'll figure out something to tell my mom , and i 'll call you later , okay ? kiefer : you promise you 'll call ? kristina : yes . kiefer : heh . alexis : hi ! kiefer : hey , miss davis . alexis : hi , there . how are ya ? kiefer : good . how are you ? alexis : good . kiefer : uh , i hope it 's okay that i brought kristina home -- alexis : sure . kiefer : kind of wanted to save you a trip . alexis : well , thank you . i appreciate that . kiefer : yeah . it gave kristina and i a little time together . our schedules have been kind of crazy , so we have n't really seen each other . alexis : yeah . i bet . well , senior year is tough . there 's a lot going on . come on in . kiefer : mm - hmm . alexis : and those flowers you sent kristina were beautiful . they smelled up the whole house . kiefer : i just wanted to remind her that i still exist , actually . alexis : i do n't think she needs any reminding . i 'm sorry . that was okay , right ? it 's true ? kristina : yes . alexis : okay . kristina : it 's true . kiefer : are they still here ? kristina : mm - hmm . they 're in my room . kiefer : ooh . i hope they look good . i told the florist to send something that a beautiful girl with good taste would like . [ scene_break ] sonny : kristina thinks that i love her brothers more than her . and i ca n't really blame her , because i have n't been spending much time with her . and i just hope it 's not too late to make it right . claudia : can i say something ? sonny : well , i 'm not gon na be able to stop you , so ... claudia : heh . i think that alexis is to blame for the distance between you and kristina , honestly . sonny : well -- claudia : she 's one of these women who ca n't handle what they ca n't control , and that includes you and your business . and that 's fine for her . [ sonny sighs ] claudia : but she 's putting all of her fear onto kristina , and that ca n't be good for kristina . it ca n't . sonny : well , you 've been thinking a lot about this , have n't you ? claudia : your kids are like my family now . i think about them all the time . sonny : well , i alexis would n't fight every little thing . i mean , carly , you know , we do n't agree on a lot of things , but , and she makes me crazy , but we agree on the kids . alexis sees one thing in kristina that reminds her of me , and ... it -- it , you know , whether it be anger or passion , and she worries , and she thinks she has to fix it . claudia : mm - hmm . sonny : and that 's why kristina has to be perfect -- so she 's nothing like her father . claudia : your kids are really lucky to have a father that loves them as much as you do . sonny : well , kristina does n't think that i love her at all . claudia : okay , well , we have to change that , obviously . why do n't we do something with her , like have her over once a week , and we teach her how to cook ? that would be fun . sonny : [ chuckles ] i mean , she 'd love it , but i do n't -- you know . really ? claudia : yeah . sonny : okay . claudia : i mean , she needs to see how much you love her . but she also needs to be around a woman who loves and accepts her father for who he is . right ? and that 's me . [ scene_break ] jax : now , you tend to give sonny the benefit of the doubt . or you somehow think that he 's been manipulated into this marriage with claudia , but sonny 's a big boy . he makes his own choices . just keep that in mind , okay ? carly : i know that . and i know there 's no way i can make sonny see claudia for who she really is . he 'll have to figure that out on his own . jax : okay . i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na turn this project over to olivia first thing in the morning . carly : oh , no , you 're not . oh , no . if sonny wants a party , i 'm going to give him the party of his dreams . i 'm gon na make sure everything 's perfect . [ scene_break ] robin : [ sighs ] okay , let 's review . we helped a very well - known mobster gather potentially incriminating evidence . patrick : okay , exactly . so , does that make us responsible for that 'cause i 'm not sure . robin : i do n't know . i mean , what are our options ? we could warn claudia , which would maybe save her life . we could say nothing , and then jason and sonny would do whatever it is they 're going to do . or we could do what we always do -- we could give my uncle mac the heads - up . but then he would just bring in jason for questioning . jason would deny everything . scratch that -- he would remain mute while his lawyer denied everything . and ... i do n't know . i ... maybe we should just stay out of it . patrick : i just keep thinking about michael . you know , that kid lost a year of his life . he was lucky to wake up from that coma . he 's never gon na be the same . if claudia 's responsible for michael 's shooting , she should have to pay for that . robin : you sound like sonny . [ patrick sighs ] [ scene_break ] johnny : claudia 's in a pretty dangerous situation ... for a lot of reasons . she 's -- heh -- taking all sorts of stupid risks . dominic : heh . do you know the first time she hit on me was at the corinthos house ? what do you think of that ? johnny : uhh . i do n't want to do if she feels cornered and gets caught in a lie . but you got ta promise me one thing . if she starts acting all nutty or starts hitting on you again , give me a heads - up , all right ? maybe i can help her out . dominic : uh , look . i 've seen claudia in action close up , and there 's not much you can do . johnny : yeah . tell me about it . dominic : i 'll see you . [ door opens ] [ scene_break ] jason : [ sighs ] if sonny listens to this recording ... and he tells me to do nothing ... [ sighs ] i hope it does n't come to that . sam : well , are you gon na follow his order ? jason : see , the problem is , my connection to michael is different than sonny 's . i took care of that kid from almost the day he was born . i would give my life for him . sam : yeah , i know that . jason : so , how can i let the woman who got him shot just go on like nothing happened ? i ... spinelli : uh , greetings , fair samantha , stone cold . just ... sam : you came back for your computer . spinelli : that is correct . sam : oh . you must have been pretty upset to leave it here . spinelli : did stone cold find what he was so desperately seeking ? can you prove that claudia is responsible for young michael 's shooting ? jason : [ exhales ] i 'm sorry that i yelled at you . spinelli : i pressed my point too vehemently , so -- jason : no , i 'm -- listen , i 'm glad that you stood up to me , because i trust you . i respect your judgment . so , if you think that i 'm doing something wrong , i want you tell me test , okay ? spinelli : well , `` wrong `` in the world of stone cold is a very flexible concept . and i 'm humbled by my master 's faith in me . and i stand ready to assist in any future searches . i -- jason : you ca n't be anywhere near this now . we 're not gon na discuss it , so you need to just take your computer and stay away for a little while . spinelli : um , understood . the jackal is assured that whatever happens in regard to vixenella , stone cold will act with honor and fairness . in the vernacular , we will do the right thing . sam : why did n't you say anything ? jason : because spinelli talks too much . i mean , he does n't mean to , but he does . [ sighs ] sam : you 're giving him deniability . jason : it 's the best way to protect him . i just wish you did n't know so much about this , either . sam : oh , you do n't have to worry about protecting me . you just need to protect yourself , jason . [ scene_break ] alexis : you know , early admission can be a mixed blessing . but on the other hand , it 's kind of nice to know where you 're gon na be , right ? kiefer : yeah . i mean , it creates a good second chance for yourself early in the game . that way if i do n't get in , it 's just straight to plan `` b. `` alexis : though i have no idea why you 'd want to go to harvard when clearly , yale is a much , much better school . right , honey ? kristina : [ chuckles ] you 're the expert , mom . alexis : heh . kiefer : uh , is it okay if i ask her ? kristina : uh , sure . go ahead . alexis : what ? kiefer : on thursday , i 'd like to take kristina to this coffeehouse near the college . and there 's just gon na be , like , this poetry slam and a band . alexis : how about alcohol ? kiefer : no . just coffee and snacks . [ chuckles ] i would n't take kristina to a bar . alexis : hmm . kristina : i know how you feel about me going out on a school night . alexis : yeah . well ... you do have , uh , things that you need to do . but if you get them all done , you can be back by 11 : 00 . okay ? kiefer : we 'll make it 10 : 45 . alexis : even better . and thank you for asking me face - to - face , 'cause it takes a lot of the pressure off of her . kiefer : yeah . well , i guess we 're set for thursday . kristina : great . i 'm looking forward to it . kiefer : i got ta hit the books . so , i will call you later . okay ? kristina : okay . kiefer : okay . bye , guys . alexis : bye . see ya later . heh . [ door closes ] kristina : i ca n't believe you 're letting me go . alexis : neither can i . but he seems to make you happy , and you make me happy , so ... you 're a lucky girl . [ kristina sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : we are gon na make so much money off sonny 's party for claudia . and i 'm gon na be there to personally make sure everything 's -- jax : no . no , no . you are n't going . carly : what do you mean , i 'm not going ? jax : i do n't want you anywhere near that party or claudia , for that matter , until after the baby is born . carly : why do n't you want me near claudia ? what 's going on ? we 're not supposed to be keeping secrets , remember ? [ scene_break ] patrick : that is why i love being a surgeon . robin : hmm . patrick : if there 's a problem , you can either fix it , or you ca n't . there 's no in - between . robin : there 's no in - between with this , either . we say something , or we do n't . patrick : if somebody hurt emma the way michael was hurt , i do n't know if i would trust the justice system , robin . and that 's kind of scary . robin : yeah , well , hopefully we wo n't ever have to . you know , the truth is ... we do n't even know what this evidence is against claudia . patrick : yeah . robin : so , whatever jason and sonny choose to do with it is on them . and you know , sometimes , you have to ... distance yourself from other people 's problems . maybe they are n't ours to fix . patrick : and that is why i love you . not only are you smart and beautiful and an amazing mother ... but you always know how to look at the important things . robin : i thought i was an annoying know - it - all . patrick : [ chuckles ] oh , you 're that , too . robin : [ chuckles ] patrick : but i love you . and i 'm the luckiest man in the world to be your husband . robin : [ whispering ] that 's right . patrick : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] jason : barney , just get down here , okay ? thanks . sam : hey , if anything happens to claudia , you 're gon na be the prime suspect . jason : i 'm not gon na get caught . sam : claudia zacchara ca n't just disappear . people are gon na notice . it is risky jason ! jason : i know , sam , and that 's exactly why i want you to stay out of this . sam : okay . okay . all right , fine . i 'm gon na treat you like any other client , and i 'm just gon na let you take it from here . but jason , there 's one more person that you 've got to consider in all this . what are you gon na do about michael ? [ scene_break ] michael : hey . have you heard from claudia ? johnny : she and your father are out of town on a business trip -- which reminds me , you probably should n't be here when your father 's not . michael : i need to tell you something . it 's about your sister . johnny : i 'm listening . michael : her time 's running out . uh , you 're the only who might be able to save her . [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm sorry . the last thing i want to do is upset you . carly : then tell me what 's going on . jax : look . this party has nothing to do with us . i do n't see why you have to be involved . carly : i do n't want to have another fight about sonny . come on . jax : yeah , but we 're not having a fight about sonny . i just want you -- you 're supposed to be taking it easy , n ? and i 'm sure that sonny would prefer that you did n't show up at the party as well . carly : well , the idea of making sonny pay and pay some more and then pay a little more for stupidly honoring that trashy slut he married , i do n't know . it 's enjoyable . i would even go as far as to say that it 's relaxing . jax : really ? carly : yes . jax : tormenting your ex relaxes you ? carly : i 'm not tormenting him , no . i look at it like i 'm helping sonny . i mean , if he sees claudia for who she really is , and he realizes that , you know , she 's not worth all the money he 's going to spend , maybe he 'll dump her . jax : all right . we 've already had one round of premature labor , okay ? why push it , carly ? carly : hey . are you gon na tell me what 's really going on ? because i know this ca n't possibly be about sonny 's party for claudia . jax : okay . i just -- i do n't want the metro court to be known as a mob hangout . okay ? carly : [ chuckling ] it 's not a mob summit . it 's a birthday party . people are gon na wear hats . jax : yeah .

[ scene_break ] johnny : why are you under the impression claudia is in trouble ? michael : i remember everything . claudia put the hit on my father , and ian devlin shot me instead . i have n't told my dad or jason yet . but i 'm going to . johnny : why are you telling me ? michael : uh , you know , if it was kristina , i 'd want to know . i 'd stand by her and protect her no matter what she did . and i want to give you that same opportunity for claudia , before it 's too late . [ scene_break ] sam : claudia made it her business to get close to michael . if she turns up missing , he will know that you 're responsible . jason : well , as long as michael does n't hold himself responsible , that 's all i care about . sam : yeah , but how do you think he 's gon na react ? he 's gon na think that it was revenge . there is no way around that . jason : sam . are you -- are you trying to talk me out of dealing with claudia ?

[ scene_break ] jason : if this thing works out with lucky , brenda will be gone . sam : a phony kidnapping is a workable plan , with one minor adjustment . jason : okay . what 's that ? sam : okay . um ... you ca n't use brenda as bait , jason . you have to use me . just hear me out , okay ? this can work . i know it can work . i look enough like brenda . jason : okay . i 'm not going to take that risk . as much as i hate it , i have to use brenda as bait . [ scene_break ] jax : the man who 's been targeting you will be caught soon . you 'll be able to go back to rome . brenda : really ? i 'm counting the minutes . jax : and i 'm sorry that you had to come back here , revisit the past . brenda : wow . that 's okay . some memories are better than others . have you been to new orleans ? [ scene_break ] claire : jax used his political clout to request police protection for brenda barrett . you guarded her in new york city back in 2007 , which makes you the obvious choice . dante : that job is like glorified babysitting . claire : brenda needs a guard with years of experience . dante : she 's under the protection of a mob enforcer , and to be honest with you , he 's very lethal and very efficient and does n't have to carry the weight of the u.s. constitution on his back . he does , and can , break any laws he decides to break . so to tell you the truth , i think brenda 's going to be a lot safer with him . claire : i want a police presence . dante : i 'm sorry . i can not guard brenda barrett . claire : why not ? [ scene_break ] lucky : you know , i 've gone to all this trouble to save your life . i mean , you would n't want me to have wasted all that effort , would you ? siobhan : my , but you 're a noble man . lucky : the balkan wants you dead , my dear . that 's why i got you a new identity and hid you in my brother 's house . siobhan : moyra ? lucky : hmm . siobhan : i do n't like that name . lucky : it got you through customs , did n't it ? siobhan : the last part 's not too much of a hardship . lucky : what , this place ? siobhan : although it is a little creepy . lucky : yeah . it 's the gargoyles . okay . look . if all goes as planned , we 'll lure the balkan to port charles and deal with him . and then , after that , you can decide what you want to do next . but until then , it 's my responsibility to keep you safe . siobhan : you 're not my keeper . lucky : no . but i am the one who put you at risk . siobhan : i 've been in dangerous situations before . i know how to handle myself . so do n't you go worrying about me . lucky : why are you so determined to get away from me ? [ scene_break ] jason : if we use brenda as bait , and something goes wrong with the plan , the balkan might not kill her . but if he sees that you 're not brenda , you 're dead . sam : jason , you do n't know how this guy operates . you do n't know how many men he 's going to bring there . you do n't even know what he looks like . you 're going to need all the help you can get . jason : i have lucky . sam : you 're walking into an extremely dangerous situation . you 're going to have to be making decisions on the fly . you need somebody there that can read your cues , who can react to you . that 's me . we work really well together . jason : i appreciate the offer , but i ca n't accept it . sam : why not ? jason : because if something goes wrong , sam , and you 're spotted as a decoy , you 're not safe , and we blow the whole meeting . i get one shot at this . i ca n't take any chances . sam : you want to talk about chances ? you 're walking into a life or death situation . do you really want to have to count on brenda ? [ scene_break ] jax : you know , my business has n't taken me to new orleans in quite some time . every time i look into your eyes , i feel like i 'm looking into my own soul . everything about you delights me . everything just seems to be exactly the way it should be . the laughter in your eyes , the touch of your lips , the warmth of your skin . the way we fit so perfectly in bed together . and being here with you right now feels like every second of my entire life has been leading up to this moment . brenda : thought you did n't believe in mystery . jax : i was n't saying it right . [ thunder ] brenda : you said it perfect . oh , my gosh . remember that room , our room in the french quarter and that jazz player across the courtyard playing in the rain ? jax : yeah . i remember . brenda : yes . i wonder if that hotel is still standing . jax : yeah . yeah . i sometimes think about that , too . [ scene_break ] lulu : carly , i would n't ask you if there were any other way , but kate wants her on the cover . carly : great . then kate should talk to brenda . i mean , they 're perfect for each other . lulu : carly , i just talked to brenda . she could n't have been nicer . she just wants jax to ask her to do it , and he 's refusing , to keep you happy . all you got to do is just tell him that you 're okay with this . carly : i 'm not okay with it . i 'm not okay at all with it . lulu : carly , i know that brenda is a loaded subject . i totally get it . that 's fine . jax is not going to be involved . this is a photo shoot with an article . that 's it . it 's going to be one magazine among hundreds . once it 's off the newsstands , it 's in the recycle bin like it never even happened . carly : everything you 're saying is reasonable . it makes sense , okay ? but brenda 's neither , and her hold on jax goes way back . lulu : you have nothing to worry about . jax is in love with you . [ scene_break ] claire : three years ago , guarding brenda was a routine job . now it 's anything but ? dante : yeah . look , jason 's got it covered . brenda : i need an active police presence , someone who 's acceptable for jason and brenda . dante : okay . great . i 'll compile a list of pcpd detectives who can handle the job . claire : who will handle brenda ? dante : that 's not even an issue . claire : no . you see , that 's exactly why i want you . because from what i heard , ms. barrett is as high maintenance as they come . and at least you 've had prior experience . dante : yeah . i would n't put it quite that way . claire : well , how would you put it , detective ? dante : it was a job . claire : well , brenda seemed to like you well enough . dante : sure , i suppose . okay . but she 's got jason now . she 's going to balk at the thought of having a police guard . claire : no , she will not . she will cooperate because sonny is the love of brenda 's life , and you 're his son . dante : sonny 's the exact reason why i ca n't guard brenda . [ scene_break ] jason : brenda is motivated . she wants to go back to rome . she wants this over with . sam : i 'm sorry , but you 're the one who told me that brenda is impulsive and volatile . she is the wrong choice to handle a guy like this . jason : sam , it 's better than using you as a decoy . sam : well , i ca n't see why , jason . jason : well , i 'll tell you a couple of reasons why . because if the balkan realizes that he 's been double crossed , first , lucky 's cover 's blown . it 's over with . and you guys could die if something goes wrong . why would i do that ? sam : because brenda walking into this meeting could turn it into a disaster , and not on purpose . i know she genuinely wants to help . but you 're the one who said first that she has no idea what she can actually handle . i picture her walking into this meeting and jumping on some guy 's back that 's three times her size , and then , all of a sudden , she 's taken hostage . then what are you going to do ? jason . you have one shot to pull this off . you need me to make this work .

[ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] dante : i 'm on the case . you know , the bomb that was put in john zacchara 's car . claire : i told you i 'll get it reassigned . there 's no momentum . no new evidence has turned up since the explosion . dante : look , all roads lead to sonny . if he nearly killed my sister , i want to be the one to bring him to justice . claire : i ca n't argue on that , okay ? but brenda needs a police guard and someone who will work with jason . since lucky spencer is unavailable , that leaves you . dante : look , i keep telling you i have other priorities . claire : not anymore . it is on you to keep brenda barrett alive .

[ sighs ] monica , i 'm sorry about jason . i -- i never really thought anything would ever happen to him , despite the way he lived . i - i - i -- it 's just a shock . monica : yes , it is a shock , tracy , and it 's all your fault . anna : this case is really personal to me because i 've known the quartermaines forever . and robin was really close with jason . duke : i read in the newspapers that this scully character is responsible . anna : there 's evidence he had an accomplice . i think that 's the person who shot jason morgan . todd : spinelli . what do you want ? spinelli : the truth about sam 's baby . todd : no . spinelli : you worked in concert with the deranged heather webber and replaced ms . delgado 's deceased child with sam 's live offspring . todd : you 're trespassing . spinelli : as i 'm sure you know , mr. manning , sam lost her husband . she 's bereft . she 's heartbroken . and you -- you have the means to provide her some solace . please stop playing sam for a fool . todd : i 'm not playing anybody for any -- you need to get out of here before i call security . spinelli : okay , remove me if you must , but just tell sam that she was right to suspect you . admit responsibility or -- or share responsibility for kidnapping the child . todd : why are you picking on me ? sam has her baby back . leave me alone . spinelli : you know sam , mr. manning , and i - i do believe that in your own manning - esque way , you care about her . do n't you think sam deserves to hear the truth from you ? diane : [ sighs ] sam : diane ? [ chuckles ] what are you doing here ? diane : [ chuckling ] hey . hey . ooh , hey ! handsome man ! ooh ! sam : is that for me ? duke : so , you think this scully person had a partner in crime ? anna : more a boss than a partner . you know , this is all gon na come out in the next few days . but sonny corinthos ' accountant , he was shot with bullets from two different guns . now , we 've matched one to scully 's weapon , but we have n't i.d . 'd the second gun yet . duke : well , it sounds more like an accomplice than a mastermind . anna : except for the fact that scully 's son said his father admitted to taking orders from someone else . duke : do you have any leads ? anna : nope . not yet . but we 'll find him . duke : you sound determined . anna : oh , i am . very . jason was monica quartermaine 's only living child . she has got to be devastated . so we owe it to her to find out who killed her son . tracy : how is jason 's death my fault ? monica : well , the police told me that your mobster boyfriend killed him . tracy : yes , he is a suspect . monica : you knew he was a murderer and a rapist . you let him in to my house even though he had tried to kill kristina davis . tracy : he told me that sonny had shot him . monica : if you had called the police the moment he walked into this house , he would have been charged and he 'd be behind bars . tracy : what do you want me to say , monica ? `` i 'll do better next time `` ? monica : if you had n't been so desperate after luke dumped you , my son would be alive today ! tracy : if you 're looking for someone to blame for jason 's death , look in the mirror ! sabrina : i was just collecting money to send flowers to dr. q . would you like to contribute ? patrick : no . i do n't want to contribute . in fact , i want you to stop . sabrina : oh . is the hospital already sending something ? patrick : i do n't care what they 're doing . in fact , i - i - i want you to stop . sabrina : i do n't understand . is it against policy to collect money even if it 's for a good cause ? patrick : a good cause ? you do n't know what you 're talking about . jason morgan is a murdering criminal . elizabeth : patrick . why are you yelling at sabrina ? patrick : elizabeth , why do n't you explain to sabrina we 'd all be better off if jason died months ago ? maxie : did he seem unusually distracted last night ? because he barely reacted when he found out i was free and we were available to have a future together . lulu : um , maybe that 's 'cause he was with another woman . maxie : well , she would n't leave . what was i supposed to do ? lulu : i do n't know . maybe you should find a nice , private moment . maxie : at the floating rib ? not likely . lulu : when he 's not on a date . maxie : lulu ! you 're a genius ! spinelli and i can discuss my divorce and our future together tomorrow night here at the halloween party . lulu : oh ! where there will be nothing but private moments ! 'cause is n't he going to celebrate halloween with ellie ? maxie : what do i care ? what do you think is more important ? a date with a girl he barely even knows or my birthday , which just conveniently falls on halloween ? lulu : oh , my gosh ! what a coincidence . maxie : i just need to ask spinelli before ellie does . really wish jason had n't messed up his timing . todd : most of the time , i do n't know what you 're talking about . but this time , spinelli , i really do n't know what the hell you 're talking about . spinelli : au contraire , mr. manning . j'accuse ! todd : oh , you know what ? you can -- you can accuse a - vous all you want , all right ? i was already j'accused by mcbain , and the pcpd let me go . why ? pourquoi ? because they did n't have any evidence . spinelli : well , a lack of evidence in the hands of law enforcement does not preclude an abundance of it elsewhere . todd : you know what ? your lack of physical strength will not prevent defenestration , nor does it preclude the eventual window - based ejection of you from my domicile . see ? [ taps foot ] you underestimated me . spinelli : i 'm a private investigator , mr. manning , and i 'm a good one , so i would advise you not to underestimate me . i am tenacious . i understand human vulnerability . and most importantly , i am not bound by the strictures of law enforcement . in short , i can prove you 're guilty . sam : is that for me ? diane : is what for you ? oh , this . uh , no . this is just some legal correspondence i was -- i was looking over . trying to multitask . sam : oh . really ? it looked like you were about to slide it under my door . diane : i was picking it up because i dropped it . i , um -- i heard about jason . sam : [ sighs ] diane : just came by to offer my condolences . sam : oh . really ? diane : mm - hmm . sam : well , i do n't need your condolences because jason is n't dead . diane : right . right . the body was not found . which , of course , can bring up all sorts of sticky legal issues . please feel free to contact my office if you have trouble with any of them . sam : jason and i would not use you as a lawyer if you were the last lawyer on earth . you helped todd manning walk . diane : the charges against mr. manning , there was -- there was no proof . they were unfounded . i simply got them dismissed , as i have done countless , dozens of times with jason . sam : please do not compare jason and todd manning . and take your legal crap and get out of my home . mcbain : is there a problem here ? britt : sabrina . a word ? sabrina : yes , doctor ? britt : what did you do to upset dr. drake this time ? elizabeth : how could you say that about jason ? patrick : what do you expect me to say after what happened to robin ? elizabeth : her death was an accident . patrick : an accident that should n't have happened , elizabeth , because she should n't have been in that lab getting that protocol to save his life . elizabeth : she would have done that for any other patient . patrick : and any other patient would still be alive . but no , she sacrificed her life so he could live , and he threw it away . elizabeth : that is not true . patrick : come on . you 're smarter than that . what do you think he was doing down at the pier ? fishing ? no . he was there on business , and he got shot . elizabeth : he was helping a friend . patrick : sonny 's accountant is not a friend . that 's organized crime . and i do n't understand how you defend the guy after everything he did to you . you -- you were robin 's friend . elizabeth : [ voice breaking ] you know who else was robin 's friend ? jason . and i think she would really hate how you 're using her death to beat up on him . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] britt : nice work . monica : enlighten me , tracy . how did i kill my son ? tracy : you and alan both coddled jason and a.j . you excused and ignored their mistakes , their selfishness , and all of their crimes . monica : a.j . made mistakes . tracy : and jason did n't ? he was just a hitman for the mob . monica : jason was not responsible for his choices . he had a brain injury from a car accident . tracy : was that the drunk - driving accident that a.j . caused , or was that not his fault , either ? monica : and a.j . paid dearly for that , as a matter of fact . it ruined his life more than it ever did jason 's . tracy : no , monica . both boys were already ruined because you and alan were more interested in philandering than you were in your boys . it is no wonder they met terrible ends . monica : and you were so good at parenting . tracy : and my boys , ned and dillon , are both still alive . and yours are gone , due to you and your moral failings . can you really deny that ? monica : no . no , i ca n't . anna : i really should n't be talking about this . duke : oh . i 'm sorry i asked . anna : yes . duke : i 've just always enjoyed watching you work . you 're so passionate about it . anna : i am . yeah . very . so , you -- you got a job somewhere ? duke : i did . i 'm , uh , tending bar . anna : are n't you a bit overqualified for that ? duke : [ chuckles ] you know , when you 've been rotting in prison for two decades , your résumé tends to have lots of gaps in it . anna : i see . yeah . where you gon na work ? duke : the haunted star . lulu : i am begging you to rethink this . spinelli seems very serious about ellie . maxie : [ scoffs ] how serious can he be ? he 's been in love with me for years . lulu : and he 's moving on . maxie : and that 's only because i stayed married to matt . spinelli pledged he would love me forever , and he 's a man of his word , which is so hot . lulu : okay . whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . so , you think that because you 're available , he 's just gon na dump ellie ? maxie : no . spinelli 's too much of a gentleman for that . but once he realizes i 'm ready to commit , then he 'll let her down gently . ellie : what a happy coincidence ! maxie , what are you up to ? spinelli : you could have given heather any number of entry - level positions , but you did n't . you gave her a prime position , supplanting a very popular columnist ! that 's a clear - cut case of guilt submitting to coercion . todd : it 's not proof . spinelli : it 's a working hypothesis . the -- the proof is yet -- yet -- to be uncovered . todd : why are you bothering -- why do n't you go take your hypothesis and bother heather webber ? spinelli : how convenient for you that she 's in a coma . todd : it 's convenient for everyone that she 's in a coma . spinelli : you know , samantha knew that you were hiding pertinent information in your safe . todd : yeah . what 'd she find when she cracked it ? spinelli : a note terminating her employment . todd : exactly . proof positive that she 's an untrustworthy human being . spinelli : no , no , what that proves is that you -- you -- you were concealing evidence that you did not want her to find . and then you moved that evidence when you knew that she was on to you ! todd : sam has her baby back ! i do n't have time for this ! you need to -- you need to go back to your , uh , shire . spinelli : yes . sam has been reunited with her child . but she lost her husband . i 've been going through the motions pretending that he could still be alive , but i fear he is not . todd : you lied ? what kind of a friend are you to fair samantha ? spinelli : look , i ca n't -- i ca n't -- i ca n't bring jason back , so i have come seeking another form of solace . todd : seek solace someplace else , please . spinelli : it may be paltry , but the truth could provide some peace . please . please , mr. manning . give samantha that shred of comfort . sam : no problem at all . diane was just leaving , were n't you ? diane : i absolutely was . lieutenant mcbain . mcbain : counselor . diane : jason was more than just a valued client . he was also my very good friend , so you contact my office if you need anything at any time . mcbain : you know her ? sam : diane was jason 's lawyer . she , uh , came by to offer her condolences . mcbain : i take it you did n't accept them . sam : no . she was also todd manning 's lawyer . mcbain : yeah , i know . she was there the day manning was released . sam : i do n't want to listen to her or anyone else tell me how sorry they are . mcbain : yeah ? why is that ? sam : because jason 's not dead . mcbain : you know something ? i do n't think he 's dead , either . monica : alan and i did . we made monumental mistakes with our sons . but that does n't get you off the hook for allowing joseph scully to go free . tracy : i did not allow anything . monica : you needed a man to want you so much , even though everything about him was a lie . tracy : no , you 're right . i - i never should have listened to anything joseph said . but he was n't 100 % bad . monica : [ chuckling ] do n't even . tracy : monica . he saved my life . monica : oh , really ? how ? tracy : do you remember that i was the only one who did not get sick during the -- jerry jacks water poisoning ? monica : yes . tracy : well , joseph slipped me the anti - toxin . monica : he told you that ? tracy : he did . monica : and you believed him ? tracy : why else would i be immune ? monica : well , if that 's true , where did he get the anti - toxin ? tracy : i 'm not sure . monica : really ? do n't you know what this means ? it means that joseph scully was working with jerry jacks . sabrina : nurse webber , i 'm so sorry about that incident back there . it was completely my fault . i did n't know the history between dr. drake 's late wife and jason morgan . elizabeth : it 's , uh , it 's fine . [ sniffles ] sabrina : i gather mr. morgan meant a lot to you . elizabeth : i loved him . britt : i could n't help overhearing . are you okay ? patrick : no , i 'm not okay . i ca n't believe i went off on elizabeth like that . britt : there 's nothing wrong with being honest about your feelings . patrick : except i was n't thinking of how she 's feeling . elizabeth and jason , they had a child that was killed in a hit - and - run last year . britt : oh . that 's terrible . but it does n't change the fact that your wife gave her life helping a man who had no regard for his own . i mean , you have every right to be upset . patrick : well , thank you for understanding . anna : you 're going to be working at the haunted star ? duke : i am . well , you know lulu falconeri ? anna : yeah , but she -- you know who she is ? duke : yes , she 's luke spencer 's daughter . i know that . he was there . anna : and she still hired you ? duke : uh , i 'm not naive . i know she 's only given me a job so she can keep an eye on me for her father . anna : is n't there anywhere else you 'd rather work ? duke : anna , i looked everywhere . i could n't find anything . anna : i hope this little arrangement does n't backfire on the two of you . maxie : hey , ellie . just hanging out here with my peeps . ellie : oh , that 's right . you must be so devastated . maxie : why ? what happened ? ellie : well , you 're getting a divorce . maxie : oh . that is a transition . ellie : you are so brave , hiding your pain even though it 's obvious you do n't want to be alone . maxie : i 'm not alone . i have lulu . ellie : well , right . but lulu 's probably super - busy planning this whole halloween party , right ? lulu : yes ! thank you for acknowledging that , ellie . maxie : i acknowledge that you 're busy . lulu : saying `` i know you 're busy , but `` does n't count . ellie : well , it is settled , then . you are going to join damien and me . maxie : for what ? ellie : for the halloween party . lulu , we 'll have three tickets . maxie : for -- for you and spinelli . ellie : well , and you . damien told me how much he loves halloween , and he 's just really upset about jason . maxie : yeah , he and jason have a very complex relationship , one that might be difficult for an outsider to understand . ellie : oh , i know . he told me all about it last night . he talked about jason for hours . maxie : he did ? did6 - - did he tell you that , um , i planned jason and sam 's wedding , or that i was the one that encouraged jason to -- to propose to sam , or that i slept with jason 's psychotic twin brother and he sent creepy pictures of me to jason ? but that was long before we realized they were related . ellie : yeah . yeah , he told me all of that . maxie : oh . i 'm just saying spinelli 's not the only one who 's lost jason . i lost him , too . ellie : [ sighs ] i am so sorry , maxie . i wanted to cheer damien up by taking him to the halloween party , and now i realize i need to cheer both of you up . your tandem happiness is now paramount , and i know he 'll be as happy as me that you 're coming . spinelli : please , mr. manning . just give me something i can take to sam . todd : fine . you want the truth ? i 'll tell you the truth . diane : not another word , mr. manning . i thought we had been over this , but clearly we need a refresher course . please repeat after me . `` i have nothing to say . `` todd : i have nothing to say without my attorney present . spinelli : wait , i 'm sorry . you 're his attorney ? diane : as of last thursday . spinelli : so , you defended him against the kidnapping charges ? diane : unfounded charges , spinelli . completely without supporting evidence . spinelli : you manipulated the system so that he could escape punishment after causing sam unfathomable grief ? ! diane : okay . you 're upset . i get it . i understand . but that does not alter the fact that -- spinelli : as if her pain meant nothing ? ! now he will never have to pay for -- for robbing sam of the first few months of her child 's life ? diane : everyone has the right to an attorney , spinelli , and the best defense possible . spinelli : you have yet to comment on your client 's innocence or guilt . diane : and i 'm not going to . look , i get it . i understand . you and sam , you are looking for someone to blame . i am sympathetic , but i 'm not gon na stand here and allow you to hurl insults and accusations at my client . spinelli : i 'm only relieved jason is n't here to see what 's become of you . diane : jason was a professional . i am a professional . and he would completely understand that i am here to do a job . my personal feelings are out of it . [ sighs ] well , you know you 've sunk really low when the tech guy for the mob gets to question your principles . [ door closes ] todd : who cares what he thinks ? diane : i care . todd : he 's upset . so what ? he 'll get over it . diane : yeah , well , i guess i 'll just have to let him get over it . todd : yeah , you will . the important thing is that sam got the dna test , that sam knows that franco was n't the baby 's father , that -- that jason was . diane : uh , actually , she does n't know any of that yet . sam : you do n't think jason 's dead . mcbain : no , i do n't . there 's no body . in my book , that makes him not dead . sam : you do n't think i 'm crazy or in denial ? mcbain : no . you 're a wife , and you want to find out what happened to your husband . there 's nothing crazy about that . sam : they -- they -- they told me that he was shot before he went into the harbor and that the water was too cold and the current was too strong . but what if he 's still alive and the only reason why he 's not contacting me is because he ca n't ? mcbain : it 's too soon to say . sam : that 's why we have to hold on to hope . jason may still be alive . we need to know the full story first . mcbain : it 's possible . sam : [ sighs ] thank you . monica : where else could he have gotten the anti - toxin , tracy ? jerry was the only one who had it . tracy : as far as we know . monica : oh , my god . oh , my god . do you know -- do you know what this means ? you were sleeping with a man who tried to murder an entire town . well , he did murder cook . tracy : it could be worse than that . if joseph was connected to jerry jacks -- [ sighs ] -- he could have played a part in the metro court hostage crisis . what if he -- contributed to alan 's death ? monica : why -- why are you asking me , tracy ? what do the police say about scully 's involvement with jerry jacks ? tracy : i have n't told them . sam : what if someone 's holding jason against his will ? he 's made a lot of enemies over the years , mostly because of sonny , but he does have a few of his own . mcbain : it 's probably too soon to speculate . sam : if he washed up on shore or he 's in a hospital somewhere , at least no one 's hurting him on purpose . mcbain : right . sam , i -- sam : or maybe when he went to meet bernie at the pier , he got into some trouble and he had to go into hiding to protect me and daniel . mcbain : and leave you here to worry like this ? that scenario 's probably less likely . sam : so , what you 're telling me , that he 's either -- he 's either too hurt to communicate or he 's being held prisoner somewhere ? mcbain : there are other possible explanations . sam : anna told me that -- bernie was shot by two different guns . and scully 's son told the police that joe jr. , he was taking orders from someone . mcbain : i think i might know who it is . anna : you gon na be able to survive on a bartender 's salary ? duke : i 'm not destitute . when the federal government finally tracked me down and realized i 'd been incarcerated unlawfully , they had to make reparation for their incompetence . anna : they paid you for your time in prison ? duke : there would n't be enough money in the world to pay me for the time i was gone from you , but i have enough to keep you in the manner to which you 've become accustomed . anna : oh , no . you do n't have to worry about me . i can take care of myself , thank you very much . duke : i know that . but this has been an uphill battle for me , especially with luke casting doubts all over the place . anna : obviously i was gon na be concerned , too . duke : well , did you have to go so far as to compare my prints with what you have in the pcpd database ? anna : yes . now there 's no doubt . duke : good . and now i have a job . and i 'm gon na make an honest living . i 'm gon na prove myself to you . and when i do , we can have our happy life back together again . elizabeth : there 's a lot of history between me and jason . sometimes as friends . sometimes more . wish i had treated him better . sabrina : [ scoffs ] i 'm sure that 's not true . elizabeth : i lied to him about something really important because i was afraid if he knew the truth , that i would lose him forever . not that he was mine to begin with . sabrina : i 'm sure he knew how much you cared for him . elizabeth : yeah . he knew . but the timing was never right . jason accepted that . and i 'm still struggling with it . fortunately , i was -- i was able to come clean before it was too late . but for awhile , i was willing to do anything to hold on to him .

[ scene_break ] jordan : tj implied that maybe you were working for sonny , but i really could n't understand him , because why would he hire an outsider ? why would he do that when he 's got people of his own to do that kind of thing ? curtis : i 'm sure he does . jordan : why would he hire somebody so close and with such clear ties to the police department ? huh ? curtis : who knows why sonny does anything he does . jordan : curtis , just give up . it 's done . you 're working for julian . you 're not working for sonny . you 're working for julian ? what have you got ? huh ? whatever information you have that 's pertinent , it 's your obligation to tell me . curtis : my obligation ? jordan : yes , it is . curtis : my obligation ? jordan : absolutely . curtis : oh , not living . look , remember , i came to you for a job at the pcpd , right ? you refused . fair enough . so i busted my ass to build a thriving pi business . [ scoffs ] and you want me to give you all the information that i uncovered ? oh , hell no . jordan : you realize i can charge you ? i can charge you with interfering with an investigation . curtis : what investigation ? you ai n't got nothing . jordan : just stop , curtis ! curtis : i 'm ... you do n't get it . i 'm trying to stop a war out there . jordan : if you prove that sonny ordered that bomb , then julian 's gon na retaliate , and then there 's gon na be more blood . do you get that ? curtis : julian does n't need proof to retaliate . julian needs proof to put sonny away in prison . jordan : what are you saying right now ? curtis : i 'm saying that julian jerome has lost faith in the pcpd . and that is why i 'm investigating . [ scene_break ] alexis : carly . can i call someone for you ? carly : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . alexis : you do n't seem fine . carly : well , you know what ? you do n't seem so great yourself . alexis : well , i 'm barely holding it together , but that 's nothing new . carly : [ exhales sharply ] alexis : i 'm surprised to see you here . carly : um ... i did n't want to be home and ... think about how morgan 's never gon na walk back in the door again . [ sighs ] alexis : i am so sorry . carly : can i tell you how much i hate that expression ? why are you sorry ? you did n't hurt my son . and no matter how sorry you are , nothing you or anyone else does can bring him back . [ scene_break ] ava : no , look ! if sonny is arrested , the first thing he 'll do is call diane miller . and the first thing she 'll do is have him tell her everything that led up to this altercation . scott : `` altercation `` ? he tried to choke me to -- ava : and the longer that sonny thinks about our conversation tonight , the more likely it is that he will become suspicious about my ... role in what happened to morgan . scott : wh -- wh - why would he suspect anything ? ava : [ sighs ] because of his personal experience . he knows every single symptom of bipolar disorder , scott . and it might occur to him that morgan was acting like somebody who was off their meds . and then he might remember how i was found in morgan 's room the other night and how i had access to that house every single time i visited avery . he could get suspicious . he could start putting the puzzle together . it might occur to him that maybe i tampered with morgan 's medication , which then led to a manic state , which ultimately led to morgan 's death . and how long after that do you think sonny is gon na let me live ? scott : you do n't think you 're getting a little paranoid here ? ava : well , you 're my attorney . so just keep your mouth shut , then . we just need to step back , keep cool , let nature take its course . scott : let sonny just destruct all by himself . [ scene_break ] michael : my dad ... uh , how bad is it ? nelle : obviously , i do n't know him that well . but from what i can tell , sonny 's very powerful and strong . you know , you meet him and there 's no question about who 's in charge . but lately , that 's not how he 's been . he 's drinking all the time . when you talk to him , it 's like there 's a delay . takes him a few seconds to respond . the only time he seems focused is when he 's with avery . michael : ah . well , i 'm glad he has avery to take his mind off morgan . nelle : yeah , but , michael , she 's a baby . it 's not her job to make things better for him . i do n't know all the ins and outs of your family , but i can see what 's in front of me . if sonny 's left alone to mourn and grieve for morgan , look , i 'm not sure he 's gon na make it . [ scene_break ] sonny : you should go ahead and leave , jason . jason : yeah , i think it 's better if i stay . sonny : no , no , no . look , i 'm not gon na have this conversation about why you ca n't do what i need you to do . you -- you made your decision . i accept it . let 's just -- let 's move on . jason : i made a decision to start over . sonny : right , and i honored the choice , but here 's the thing . we used to be able to be honest with each other , so i 'm gon na be honest with you right now . you could have eliminated julian [ snaps fingers ] bam , like that , and my son would still be alive . but that 's when you were the person i could count on . i ca n't count on you anymore . [ scene_break ] curtis : now , i will give you a copy of the report just as soon as i 'm done with the investigation and as soon as my client authorizes the release of information . jordan : wow . you know , you need to leave julian out of this and just do the right thing . curtis : i 'm paid to provide a service . julian jerome wants results , and you know damn well that i can get them for you . in fact , i think you hate me , because i 'm better at this than your whole department . jordan : wow . um , actually , my officers are perfectly competent . curtis : [ scoffs ] jordan : actually . curtis : right . you know damn well as soon as i walk out of here , you 're gon na call an all - hands - on meeting , tell them heads will roll if they do n't get to sonny . see , you ca n't afford to have me beat you to the punch , can you ? in fact , i think you 're threatened by me . jordan : [ chuckles ] the hell i am . curtis : mm . then what is it , huh ? what about me are you afraid of ? [ scene_break ] griffin : okay , so what do we do now ? anna : we are n't going to do anything . you 're gon na get some sleep , and i 'm gon na make some calls . griffin : are you sure all this is necessary ? i mean , these people are after claudette , not charlotte . anna : well , so says claudette . griffin : right , and so little of what claudette has said has been true . anna : you know , i think it 's unlikely that charlotte is the target . i feel that valentin is sort of obsessed with claudette . and then , by her leaving , she 's kind of drawn the danger away , thankfully . griffin : yeah , i mean , if -- if you 're right , claudette sacrificed herself for her daughter 's well - being . that makes her a far better mother than i ever gave her credit for . a far better mother than i could ever be a father . [ scene_break ] alexis : i hope you know that you have been in my thoughts and prayers , and i wanted to come by and tell you that , but i did n't think that that would help . we 've had our differences . carly : yeah , we have . [ sniffles ] alexis : but in the end , we 're both mothers , and we both love our children and we would lay down our lives for them . i ca n't comprehend what you 're going through . carly : yeah , i do n't know , either . i do n't know what comes next . i ... i mean , the thought of life without morgan terrifies me . [ sighs ] alexis : seeing you makes this real . i mean , i could lose my daughter just as easily , just as senselessly . and if this happened to you , it -- it could happen to me . curtis : pray it never does . [ scene_break ] jason : you think i failed you ? okay , maybe i did . sonny : no . my problem 's solved . i did n't do it . now my son paid the price . jason : i think you made the best decision you could , given the situation . sonny : i made the wrong decision . jason : listen to me . you adjusted . you called off the hit . the bomb should have never been planted . let me find out who screwed this up , okay ? sonny : it 's not gon na bring morgan back . it 's not gon na absolve me . jason : i 'm gon na find out the truth for you . let me do that . sonny : here 's the truth . i set this in motion . right ? it was my whole doing . carly begged me not to go , begged me to leave julian alone , and -- and i did n't do it , because i believed it was right . now carly is gone . my son is dead . michael 's gone . i got nothing left . jason : i 'm still here , sonny . sonny : who are you kidding ? i lost you a long time ago . [ scene_break ] curtis : so , if i 'm up under your skin , it 's either because you have a problem letting me win ... or you like it . [ cell phone rings ] jordan : andré . hey . uh , actually , this is , um -- it 's not really a good time right now . can i call you back ? no , no , no . everything is -- it 's fine . um ... oh , that 's great . that 's great . good . uh , thank you . i will call you back . bye . you need to go . you need to go , because you have julian 's bidding to do . right ? which you 'll mess up because [ chuckles ] you mess up everything that you touch . [ cell phone rings ] curtis : [ sighs ] hey , julian . how can i help you ? julian : well , i want sonny in prison . and i want his wife to stop making me look bad in front of alexis . so i want you to find proof that sonny planted that bomb , and find it fast .

[ scoffs ] as much as i hate her , i do n't want her physically harmed . and that guy who ... kidnapped me , he was no picnic . and he -- he 's gon na go after her like he came after me . and she just -- she better watch out . [ cell phone rings ] nathan : west . [ scene_break ] anna : no one is expecting you to be a father overnight . all anyone 's asking is that you 'll be a guardian . i think you can do that . griffin : yeah , but what if she wakes up and , uh , wants her mommy ? and she does n't want to listen to me 'cause i 'm just some stranger ? anna : yeah , the police are waiting to intercept claudette 's plane , and as soon as it lands , she will be back . griffin : i ca n't imagine how painful it must have been for claudette . i mean , she left charlotte here because it was the only way to protect her . anna : and she knew that you would look after her daughter . she knew that . griffin : i wish i could believe that , anna , but it 's -- it 's just not true . claudette never looked at me as someone that could protect her and charlotte . that 's what nathan was supposed to do . look , i was n't her best option . i - i ... i was the only option she had left . [ scene_break ] carly : i would like to think that julian 's never gon na show his face here again , but i know better . he 's arrogant and he does -- well , he does exactly what he wants to do , right ? he killed duke , tried to kill you , and then he insults my sweet boy . if you happen to be here , do n't get in the way . i need to go to my office . i have no idea what i 'm gon na do there , but i 'm gon na -- alexis : carly . i tried to stop julian . he 's still standing , and that fight has brought me nothing but misery since . carly : i 'm already miserable . and i could use a fight . [ scene_break ] michael : i know how my father thinks . i know how the business works . and i know why he did what he did . if i was in his position and i had an enemy walking free , insulting me , jeopardizing my authority , i ca n't say i would n't do the same thing . nelle : well , then i do n't understand . michael : why i ca n't forgive him ? or maybe i can , some day . but right now , all i can think about is my little brother . my little brother who loved penguins ... and baseball , popcorn movies . [ exhales sharply ] who could make my mom laugh , no matter how furious she was . who would wake up the morning of the first snow and run outside in his pajamas and try and catch snowflakes on his tongue . [ clicks tongue ] it was always the two of us . and now he 's gone because of my dad . [ sighs ] i - i do n't know how i can forgive that . nelle : michael , i 'm not saying that you have to forgive him . but somebody that you love is in pain , just as you are . and if you think there 's anything that 's worth holding onto in your relationship with your father , then ... think twice about abandoning him . [ cell phone rings ] michael : sorry . one second . hello ? alexis : michael , it 's alexis . michael : what 's going on ? alexis : your mom 's at the metro court , and i think she could use some support . michael : okay , thank you for letting me know .

[ scene_break ] sonny : ever since you got your memory back , you 've been kind of distant , kind of not the same . it 's just not gon na work out , not the way it used to . jason : what are you saying ? huh ? what does that mean ? we 're not friends ? sonny : means i 'm on my own now . [ grunts ] jason : look , uh ... you blame yourself for what happened to morgan , and i think you 're punishing yourself by pushing everybody away . but i got news for you , buddy . i 'm not leaving you . i 'm still right here . sonny : get -- you need to leave . you need to leave because you 're not my friend anymore .

[ scene_break ] patrick : let me take a look at your cut . robin : no , do n't . this is fine till we get to the hospital . steve : which should be soon because there 's no reason to keep us here any longer . maxie : i hope this proves how much i wanted to be here and how proud of your achievement i am . matt : it 's really hard to focus on that , right now -- do n't you think ? -- with elizabeth going overboard and all . mac : go home , spinelli . quit interfering in the investigation , or i 'll have you arrested . spinelli : the jackal refuses to leave maximista undefended against the demented dr. niles ! mac : maximista ? maxie is here , spinelli . she 's fine . maxie : my nia llorente bag is n't . this nail polish is never gon na come out . olivia : okay , ronnie , we 've told you everything we know . can we get to the hospital ? or are steve and robin gon na stand here and bleed for another two hours ? ronnie : all right , go ahead , olivia . you can take webber with you . olivia : thank god . i ca n't wait to get to dry land . patrick : robin and i are going , too . ronnie : whoa , hang on , hang on . your wife can go , but you need to stay , dr. drake . i have questions for you . patrick : how many more times do you want me to go over this ? ronnie : as many more times as it takes to get a clear picture about what happened here . patrick : go . robin : my watch . off . padilla : what about it ? robin : uh , it must have come off when i was fighting with lisa . off . padilla : mm - hmm . robin : it was a gift from my mom . mac : wait a minute . where are you going ? robin : to find my watch . mac : be careful . robin : i 'm fine . lisa 's not on this boat any longer .

[ drawer closes ] johnny : knock yourself out . anthony : you 're too kind . johnny : yeah ? and you 're too calm , considering the circumstances . why lisa ? anthony : i wanted somebody to make patrick drake regret his superior attitude . i deserve respect . johnny : and what ? this is how you get it , giving an unbalanced woman an unbalanced dose of wake - up juice ? what about hiring somebody to break his fingers ? anthony : i like irony . johnny : you like chaos . anthony : no ! i like to remind people of their place . dr. patrick drake -- you know what he is ? a hypocrite hiding behind the hippocratic oath . who is he to look down his nose on me ? ! hotshot surgeon , holds the power of life and death in his hands . he 's nailing lisa niles behind his wife 's back and making lisa crazy ! guess what . i hold the power of life and death in my hands , too . johnny : yeah , and guess what . i 'm the one that almost died . got a needle jabbed in my neck . anthony : i got a rusty tenpenny nail in my gut ! johnny : you want to compare wounds ? ! anthony : there really is no irony in you at all , john . look at the poetry . was n't it a needle that brought you two kids together in the first place ? johnny : you think this is a joke ? anthony : i think you 're overreacting . lisa did n't want to kill you . whatever this thing was she woke up as , if she wanted somebody dead , they 'd be dead . lisa : you do n't want to get me sick . you want to kill me , remember ? [ scene_break ] [ robin gasps ] patrick : it 's okay . sorry . i did n't mean to startle you . robin : for a split second , i -- patrick : yeah , i know . what are you doing back out here ? robin : i was looking for my watch . it came off , i guess , when i was fighting with lisa , and it was right where i thought it would be . see , i fell and hit my head and cut my arm right there . but then you found me all the way over there , so ... how is that possible ? patrick : it 's over now .

[ michael sighs ] abby : look , something else is going on . michael : my mom and shawn took off someplace . abby : what about your sister ? michael : they took her with them . nice , right , dragging josslyn around ? abby : look , mothers are still women . i mean , carly is allowed to have a life with men . michael : jax is still missing . my mom should n't be running off with some bodyguard right now . abby : hey , his name is shawn , and he covered for you the night dante got shot . michael : what if he only did that as a way to get to my mom , though ? make her grateful enough to owe him ? abby : you 're talking about something very calculated . shawn seems like a nice guy . michael : yeah , so did kiefer . did n't stop him from smacking the hell out of my sister . you know , and this guy who beat up your friend at the club ? i bet he seems like a real nice guy in his day job , too . people put on this image in public of how they want to be perceived . abby : well , sometimes it 's a survival mechanism . that 's how it was for me when i was dancing at vaughn 's . michael : yeah , but that -- that was n't you , abby . abby -- candy was a role that you played , a way to make money . abby : i 'm not ashamed i worked at vaughn 's . michael : i know , but you 're not like your friends , okay ? you do n't have to sell yourself anymore . [ scene_break ] carly : [ sighs ] josslyn 's sound asleep . i think she knows it 's ... safe now . shawn : hmm . no , she picked it up from you . carly : i do feel safer -- a little bit , you know , now that i know franco 's not here and that jason is and you are . means i can let my guard down a little and relax , and you can relax . [ shawn laughs ] carly : and you can have a shot with me . shawn : oh , so you want me to drink so i 'll let my guard down and you can get more answers to questions you know you should n't ask . carly : just trying to get to know you better . shawn : okay , so why do n't you just ask how i like my coffee ? carly : i know how you like your coffee . shawn : mm . carly : you pour it very hot , but you do n't drink it right away . you put your spoon in it and you stir it around to get the heat off . and then you put it to your lip just to test it before you drink it . it 's very thought - out . shawn : okay , well , i did n't know you paid that much attention to how i drink my coffee . carly : you 're not the only observant one , you know . and you are missing out on some really good tequila . shawn : yeah , well , i think you 've drank enough for both of us . carly : stop deflecting and answer the question . shawn : did you even ask ? carly : what are you so afraid of ? [ scene_break ] steve : i 'm gon na check on my sister . i want someone to take a look at you . olivia : i 'm fine . steve : epiphany , could you look after olivia , check her vitals , see if she has a temperature , and maybe run a blood panel ? olivia : i 'm not gon na tie up the lab with doing unnecessary blood work . steve : you were nauseous and dizzy . olivia : we were on a boat . i was seasick . epiphany : okay . excuse me . can you please let me know when you two figure this out ? steve : okay , you do n't have a fever . does n't seem like you have a fever anyway . olivia : that 's because there 's nothing wrong with me . i 'm gon na sit right here in this chair until you find out that everything 's okay with your sister , and then i 'm gon na head home . steve : you sure ? olivia : i 'm fine . [ scene_break ] [ elevator bell dings ] spinelli : the jackal is relieved to see maximista unharmed . i mean , i - i - i know firsthand how lethal the demented dr. niles can be . maxie : can you believe i went to all that trouble to get onto the boat and all matt cared about was elizabeth ? spinelli : well , perhaps you 're unaware the jackal was the one that rescued fair elizabeth from the shores of spoon island . some might call the action heroic . [ both chuckle ] maxie : you could n't have just left her ? okay , i guess not . but god knows , i 'm sure she 's just pretending to be hypothermic for sympathy . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] monica : well , at first , she was groggy and she was disoriented . matt : well , did you do a blood panel and chest x - rays ? monica : we ran a battery of tests , and as soon as i get the results , i 'll let you know . matt : okay . [ maxie clears throat ] [ scene_break ] patrick : i want to do those sutures myself . robin : no . patrick : robin , i want to make sure they 're done right . robin : come on , i do n't think i need a surgeon to stitch up my arm . patrick : what about a husband ? robin : what about the chief of staff does not want special treatment , okay ? it 'll set a bad example . i 'll have an intern do it . [ scene_break ] johnny : does it hurt ? anthony : no change . johnny : yeah ? how about now ? anthony : [ grunts ] nice ! [ johnny laughs ] anthony : that make you feel better ? johnny : not as much as i thought it would . why the hell could n't you have left her alone ? anthony : i sensed in her a kindred spirit ... an appetite for revenge , a mind for mayhem . johnny : yeah , except she was a human being . she was hurt . anthony : she was crazy ! johnny : she wanted to be loved ! she wanted someone to need her . she needed help . anthony : she was n't gon na get that asleep . johnny : yeah , except the lisa niles i saw today , she was not someone who should have been woken up . anthony : well , i guess no one has to worry about that anymore . do they ? [ scene_break ] ranelle : picked up an extra . for you . michael : thank you . uh , how much do i owe you ? ranelle : on the house . for being sweet to our candy . i 'm going to see if they know any more about kara . abby : okay . thanks . it bothers you , having them call me candy . michael : well , your name 's abby . abby : well , they 're not trying to suck me back into the club , if that 's what you 're thinking . michael : i did n't say that . abby : yeah , but every time i ask you to do something with them , you find reasons not to . why are you so uncomfortable with them , but you have no problem with what your dad does for a living ? michael : well , i 'm used to my dad . abby : you 're never gon na get used to my friends if you keep refusing to hang out with them . michael : look , you should have time to yourself , you know , with your friends . i do n't want to be one of those guys who expects you to drop everything just because we 're a couple . abby : well , that is very thoughtful of you . maybe your mom deserves the same consideration . michael : okay , who my mom dates is her business . i know . i just -- i do n't think it should be shawn . abby : why not ? name one thing that shawn has actually done to make you doubt him . michael : it 's just a feeling that i got . abby : that came from your father , the person who raised you to trust nobody who disagrees with him . [ scene_break ] shawn : you know , i do n't ... think it 's a good idea for you to have another shot of tequila . carly : i 'm on a honeymoon . it may not be my honeymoon , but i am going to enjoy every second of it . shawn : well , you wo n't be enjoying yourself in the morning . carly : mm .

[ elevator door closes ] thanks for that . michael : what ? abby : just not making them feel less than . michael : abby , i do n't look down on your friends because they strip . i think it 's actually kind of sad someone has to do that for a living . abby : well , some of them actually like it . and the others , they 're just trying to make it through . michael : i 'm not judging . abby : yeah , but you 're not trying to understand it , either . sandy -- she was in real estate before the bottom dropped out of the market . ranelle -- she had a modeling career started till someone came over and took the franchise and turned it into some teen agency . but none of them have ever been in ... michael : what ? abby : never mind . michael : you were gon na say none of them are in the mob . abby : i was gon na say that none of them have been lucky enough to find someone like you .

[ cell phone camera beeps ] paul : now , what makes evie so bad ? emma : that 's the thing . when grandma watched the show with me , she explained that evie thinks with her heart , instead of her brain . that means she is n't really a bad person , even if she does bad things sometimes . paul : that 's always the party line with bad guys . is n't it , anna ?

[ scene_break ] paul : you 're saying the body was n't rivera 's . anna : the one that was conveniently incinerated ? yeah , that 's what i think . paul : i see . uh , are you also saying that the medical examiner and everyone else involved in identifying the body was wrong ? that everybody there had made the same mistake ? anna : possibility . paul : rivera had a record . the autopsy report concluded that the body was his . the id was found on his body -- his own id . now , why would you question that ? anna : when you 've spent as many years as i have policing , you develop an instinct , and mine is telling me that something is off . paul : are you saying that someone wanted to make it appear that the body was rivera 's ? anna : and then they made the body disappear before anyone could prove otherwise . paul : well , it 's a fun theory , but why would someone do that ? anna : i could n't begin to tell you . maybe someone came to a conclusion that they wanted . or maybe the investigation just was n't thorough enough . paul : more incompetence . anna : everyone makes mistakes , paul . paul : you know , now that i think about it , you 're in a unique position to know if that was really carlos ' body , are n't you ?

[ muffled ] why would she refuse to marry a man who 's neck - deep in mob business ? michael : like you were how many times ? tracy : enough to know it 's a really bad idea . monica : okay , look , since michael has denied being involved with any of sonny 's activities , there has to be another reason that sabrina wants to wait . sabrina ? michael : okay , look , ca n't we just all be happy that another quartermaine is coming into the family ? i mean , come on . monica : well , of course , we can . tracy : i 'm with you there . monica : so , uh , when are you due ? sabrina : um [ stammers ] excuse me . i just need to get some air .

julian gets to spend some time alone with baby leo at his new house with alexis , while she shows him how to change diapers and care for a baby ; something he has absolutely no experience with . he invites sam and lucas to come to the new house and visit their baby brother . meanwhile , olivia wants to make peace with julian but also believes she needs spiritual guidance . she finds dante and lulu at the hospital and protests to them that she knows they have perfect morals and are exemplary role models for a child . dante is clearly not uncomfortable to hear his mom tell him that , realizing that he 's keeping a secret from everyone that he slept with his wife 's cousin . nikolas and hayden are at the floating rib when they run into sam . he reminds sam he could have her and jake arrested for breaking into his house and hacking his computer but she reminds him jake could do the same to him for illegally testing jake 's dna . she does , however , inform her cousin that jake has decided , against her recommendation , to call it off . she informs nikolas that jake is going to marry elizabeth and have a future with her regardless of what nikolas may know or think he knows . meanwhile , nikolas is growing closer to hayden . she still suspects nothing about him nor reveals that she remembers anything that she remembered before she got shot and lost her memory . sabrina declines michael 's marriage proposal , telling him they need to get to know each other better and should not get married just because she 's pregnant . yet , there may be another reason . she does not want to reveal to anyone exactly when she is due or when the baby was conceived paul hornsby goes to talk to anna after finding out she went to the morgue without proper authorization and asks her what she was looking for . she admits to him she 's suspicious of the autopsy report and now that carlos rivera has been cremated , it gives her more cause for suspicion and she admits to him she does not believe the body in question even was carlos rivera . he finds out that she suspects that somebody falsified the murder investigation to cover up something they do n't want anyone to find out . still , nobody has a clue that sloane has been murdered much less that paul murdered him . yet he indicates that he more than likely knows that she murdered carlos , and therefore it may not be in her best interest to double - cross him knowing what he knows .. maxie brings the big check nina wrote to the haunted star but tells dillon she will tear it up unless he tells her this `` secret `` he 's told everyone he knows about dante . he `` distracts `` her and does not reveal it yet he clearly has lulu on the brain . she and dante come by and dante confronts dillon . they have their private conversation about the big secret , which both maxie and lulu are still unaware of . in their heated argument , dillon concludes he 's done keeping dante 's secret and he announces to lulu there is something he needs to tell her .

[ scene_break ] sonny : morgan ... ... i wanted to be everything that my father was n't when i was a boy . i wanted to give you so much . i wanted to protect you ... ... and give you the life i never had . i failed . i failed . oh , i failed . and now you 're gone , my beautiful boy . i ca n't do it anymore . i ca n't fail anybody else . forgive me . robin : sonny ! sonny : robin ? [ scene_break ] valerie : i take it the problem between you and curtis is n't just a simple family matter ? jordan : i - i do n't want to involve myself in your personal relationship again , but curtis is forcing my hand . valerie : you 're my boss , but we 're also friends . so if there 's something you think i should know ... jordan : i 'm not gon na tell you to break up with him , okay ? but i got to tell you -- the longer that you stay in a relationship with curtis , the greater the odds that he 's gon na jeopardize your job and god knows what else . [ scene_break ] jason : honestly , is this a robbery ? because if it is , you must be pretty dumb . there has to be a much less risky target . curtis : nothing 's been taken . how about i just walk out of here right now , and this whole thing could be over ? jason : i 'm trying to remember , and sometimes that 's not so easy for me . but you 're a private investigator , right ? so , who hired you to investigate sonny ? [ scene_break ] griffin : you think i should give up charlotte ? you agree that i 'd be a bad parent . anna : no . for the record , i have seen nothing that would lead me to believe you would be a bad father . nobody knows what kind of parent they 're going to be until they are one . this is your decision to make . it 's not my future . it 's yours . griffin : and charlotte 's . anna : i - i 'm just telling you what the options are so you can weigh them and to remind you that i 'll support you no matter what . griffin : even if i abandon my daughter ? anna : well , i - i do n't see placing your child with people who want and love her as abandonment . it 's a heart - wrenching decision , but parents do make it . i mean , you know , some people are n't equipped to be a father or a mother . you know , i was n't . [ scene_break ] robin : sonny , what are you -- what are you doing here ? sonny : the same thing you 're doing . i just come -- i like to come here to ... remember . how 's patrick ? emma ? robin : um , he 's good . he -- he could n't come this time , but emma did . she 's at felicia 's . sonny : [ sighs ] so , uh , you -- you ... how 's it -- how 's it out west ? robin : we 're still deciding , you know ? we like it , but we miss port charles . we miss our friends and our family . sonny : yeah , we miss you , too . robin : sonny ... sonny : why did you come here ? you , uh ... you miss the cold weather ? robin : no , i do n't miss the cold weather . i ... i came for you . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't doubt that your father is hurting . he knows he 's responsible for morgan 's death . michael : okay , mom , dad 's bipolar . a loss this huge could push him over the edge . i just ca n't help but wonder if we should -- we should do something . carly : like what ? michael : keep an eye on him . i know max is keeping an eye on him , and nelle agreed to stay over tonight to watch avery . but [ sighs ] carly : but they 're not family . michael : no . mom , i 'm -- i 'm sorry for asking you this . carly : do n't . do n't do that , okay ? i do n't ever want you to apologize for caring about your dad . michael : i know you 're hurting . uh , and i know how hard it was for you to walk away . just , uh ... i do n't think i can . carly : baby , i 'm not gon na be upset if you let go of the anger you have at your dad . michael : do you think you would be able to ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm just a little toxic right now . i got -- i 'm not good company . people might say i 'm dangerous . i just need to be left alone . robin : well , i think i 'll stay ... if that 's okay with you . i came by to say hello to stone . sonny : this place has a lot of meaning for you . robin : and you too . it was a lot colder that night that we scattered stone 's ashes . remember ? on the bridge ? i mean , it was a different bridge , but ... ... the river and the city lights are still the same . i remember us both standing here holding that box . and then brenda showed up . the three of us said goodbye together . sonny : it 's been a while since i paid my respects . robin : i think stone would forgive you for that . he will not forgive you for bringing a gun . so why do n't you hand it over for me ... and for stone ? [ scene_break ] valerie : what happened between you and curtis today ? jordan : julian jerome hired curtis to undermine the department 's investigation into the murder of morgan corinthos . your boyfriend may have claimed to clean up his act , but he 's as dirty as ever . [ scene_break ] curtis : where 's the professional consideration ? i 'm pretty sure that sam does n't break client confidentiality , so i ca n't believe you 'd expect me to . jason : i 've got detective falconeri 's number right here . want me to use it ? curtis : okay , look . i 'm looking for information about a car bomb . jason : whose orders ? curtis : an interested party . jason : okay , julian . he 's , uh , trying to tie sonny to the bomb in his car . taking advantage of sonny 's grief , he figured he could find some sort of proof before sonny -- curtis : before he what ? buries his son ? huh ? picks up where he left off and finishes what he started ? [ scene_break ] griffin : you gave robin up ? anna : yeah . well , i 'd made this terrible professional mistake . and i had been entrapped by this man . he was not a good man . i was young and desperate . all i knew at the time was that if the truth came out , i would be seen as an enemy of the state . and it was around then that i found out that i was pregnant . and i hid my pregnancy , and i gave birth in secret , and ... [ voice breaking ] i had a few really precious days with robin ... ... and i [ sniffles ] i gave her to a dear friend to raise . and i supported them financially through questionable means . and i saw her occasionally . not often enough . and she kind of knew me just as a friend of the family . she called me `` luv . `` griffin : love ? anna : that was her father 's pet name for me . and robert did n't know , you know , about her . he did n't know about robin . so that 's not very different from you and claudette , is it ? griffin : yeah , but your story has a happy ending . anna : well , yes , eventually , but it took me five years to claim robin as my own . [ breathes deeply ] and i still regret every day ... every day that i missed being with her . [ scene_break ] carly : your father and i ... look ... michael : i 'm not lobbying you one way or the other , i promise . i just want to make sure you 're doing what 's right for you . carly : what 's right ? what could be right about losing morgan ? michael : yeah . i think you and dad are his parents . you 're the only people who know what the other 's going through . carly : yeah , okay . i 'm gon na be dealing with these feelings for a long time , so i ca n't even begin to think about that . i mean , not when morgan 's not even ... he 's not even buried . [ sniffles ] and the truth is , you know , i do n't know what kind of future i have with sonny , or if i have a future with him at all . michael : yeah . same here . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm sorry if this gun makes you nervous . it 's just a gun . i just -- i have to carry it around , you know ? you -- you can never be too careful . robin : [ sighs ] right , but it 's just us here , so you do n't have anything to fear from me , do you ? sonny : of course not . robin : well , then there 's no need for a gun . sonny : oh . i do n't know about that . robin : why do you say that , sonny ? sonny : i could use it to put an end to julian jerome . robin : are you contemplating putting an end to julian jerome ? or ... are you contemplating putting an end to yourself ? [ scene_break ] griffin : what kind of priest has a child ? anna : one who 's had a crisis of faith . i mean , you ca n't be the first , surely . griffin : i mean , what kind of role model walks away from his own daughter ? anna : one who is scared for her safety . griffin : anna , you 're letting me off the hook . anna : no , i 'm just telling you what your options are . charlotte would be placed with a foster family ... one that has been screened and approved . griffin : so , from -- from claudette , to nathan , to me , to these other people -- i mean , will these unknown people be better parents than me ? anna : what do you think ? griffin : [ sighs ] i do n't know . maybe anyone would . i - i do n't know the first thing about any of this . anna : you 're overthinking this , griffin . you are . all any person needs to be a parent is born of two things -- human instinct and love . now , you do n't lack for either of those things , do you ? why do n't you go and find out ? [ scene_break ] jason : sonny did n't plant that bomb . curtis : sonny do n't have to plant that bomb . he 's got people to do that kind of thing for him , you know ? people like you . jason : hmm . let 's say sonny did it . do you really think he 's dumb enough to leave evidence just lying around in his office ? what are you looking for ? curtis : with all due respect , he was dumb enough to plant a bomb and get his son killed . jason : oh , you need to watch that . curtis : whoever planted that bomb was as stupid as they were lucky . if that bomb was set to go off when the driver keyed the ignition , it could have taken out half of the floating rib , too . jason : how do you know the bomb was rigged ? curtis : what 's it worth to you ? jason : it 's worth discretion . you were n't here . curtis : okay . uh , coming up , i did a stint with the bomb squad , right ? if i had to make a guess , i would say that , uh , the device was armed when the driver sat down , and it blew when he took his weight off the seat . jason : so that means the bomb was planted after julian 's driver left the vehicle [ chuckles ] in the floating rib parking lot right before morgan got in the car . that 's not a big window . curtis : but doable . jason : what about a timer ? curtis : two chancy . might go off when nobody 's in the car . and if there had been a spotter , right , ready to set the bomb off by remote ... jason : they would have known that julian was n't in the car . curtis : so , if you have questions about the bomb , why do n't you just ask the man who set it up ? unless [ breathes deeply ] he 's already been taken care of . forget i asked . jason : yeah , you should go . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] officer : excuse me , commissioner . forensics report on the jerome car bomb just came in . jordan : thank you . valerie : you know , curtis knows better than to pump me for information on a case . he respects me . sounds like you do n't . jordan : can you -- can you file this ? please . i have to go . [ scene_break ] carly : i want you to do something for me . michael : yeah . anything . carly : i want you to stop running around and putting out fires , shouldering other people 's burdens . you know ? let me pick up some of the slack . michael : hey , no , mom . you 've got enough going on . carly : so do you . you and morgan were so close . now , i know you 're grieving , too . michael : i 'm fine . i 'll be ... i 'm -- i 'm okay . carly : do n't . do n't do that . michael : do n't do what ? carly : shut off and withdraw . michael : nah . mom , i 'm right here . carly : yeah , you 're right here . you 're right here worrying about your father and taking care of me ... taking care of everybody else at your own expense . [ chuckles ] talk to me . okay , if you do n't want to talk to me , call jason , dante , kristina . hell , talk to some stranger , baby , but do n't keep it bottled up inside . that 's not gon na do you any good . michael : yeah , what do you want me to say ? carly : i want you to say what you 're thinking . what are you feeling ? michael : i feel ... i feel like a bad brother . [ scene_break ] robin : is that what this is , sonny ? you came to this bridge with a gun to kill yourself ? sonny : of course not . why would you think that ? robin : because i 've been there before . there was a time right after my diagnosis that i stood in this very spot [ chuckles ] wondering what was in store for me . sonny : you had reasons . robin : to die ? sonny : to live . robin : yeah , but i did n't know that then . all i knew is that i was going to die this painful , ugly death and that everyone that i knew and loved would -- would have to watch as aids consumed me . i thought jumping was the only way out . sonny : jason stopped you . robin : that 's right . he did . sonny : right . robin : and then everything started to change . and now i have a life . i have a husband . i have a family . i have a future . and , see , i know that you do n't see that right now , but you have all those things , too . sonny : there 's no coming back from what i did . my son is dead because of me , robin . robin : so , what , then ? it 's better to kill yourself than to live with what you 've done ? sonny : it 's the right thing . robin : oh , morgan would not agree with that . sonny : why would you say that ? ! you did n't even know morgan , robin ! robin : fine . i did n't . but i knew the man that he was named for -- morgan stone corinthos . and stone would be appalled and ashamed that you are so ready to give up your life when he fought with everything he had to hang on to his . [ scene_break ] griffin : hey , charlotte . what 's wrong ? you could n't sleep ? i do n't -- i do n't blame you . you had a pretty rough day . i bet you were thinking about your mom , huh ? charlotte : is she back yet ? griffin : no . no , i 'm sorry , sweetheart . she 's not . charlotte : will she be back tomorrow ? griffin : i do n't know . but prob -- probably not . hey , um , you know what your mom was telling me ? she was telling me how much she loved you . can you guess how much ? she told me she loved you all the way around the moon and all the way across the stars and wherever the sun shines and back again . charlotte : that 's a lot . griffin : it is . when somebody loves you that much , they ca n't stay away for very long . who 's your friend ? charlotte : her name 's pinky . griffin : oh . well , hi , pinky . it 's very nice to meet you . do you think a bedtime story might help pinky fall asleep ? yeah ? all right , let 's go . come on . anna : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] curtis : hey , val . you ready ? valerie : so , you 're working for julian jerome now ? curtis : you talked to jordan . valerie : when were you gon na tell me ? curtis : i was hoping to finish the job before anybody even knew that i took the job , but i also thought i had an understanding with jordan that we would n't interfere with each other 's affairs . valerie : not quite . jordan just warned me again not to trust you . curtis : did she mention why ? valerie : because you 'll find a way to use me to julian 's benefit . curtis : i would n't do that to you , okay ? that 's not even in the cards . besides , uh ... my work with julian is over . valerie : you got results ? curtis : i came to my senses . some jobs just are n't worth the money . [ scene_break ] jason : i need information on all of sonny 's cell phone calls from the night of morgan 's death . no , i ca n't ask sonny directly . he 's not thinking straight . just , please , no more questions ... and do your hacking thing . get back to me asap . [ knock on door ] jason : thanks , buddy . [ door opens ] jordan : jason . jason : yeah . sonny 's not here . jordan : i can see that . uh , you 'll do . jason : [ chuckling ] i do n't speak for sonny . jordan : you 're his right - hand man , are n't you ? jason : no , i 'm not . that was a long time ago . jordan : really ? so long ago that you , uh , do n't remember this man ? jason : you know that my memory has holes in it , right ? jordan : he 's , uh ... he 's an associate of sonny 's from way back when you did speak for sonny . jason : what about him ? jordan : he planted the bomb that killed morgan . and i am one step closer to proving that sonny killed his son . [ scene_break ] carly : you are such a good brother . look at me . you 're the best . i mean , morgan would say the exact same thing . even when you guys were fighting , he knew how much you loved him . he trusted you . he knew he could turn to you . michael : yeah , and i let him down . carly : no , you did n't . michael : when he was a baby , the first day he came home from the hospital , i made him a promise . i told him that i 'd -- i 'd look after him , that i 'd keep him safe , always have his back . and i di -- i did n't follow through . carly : we all make promises . life just happened . it 's not your fault . it 's no one 's fault . michael : what about dad 's ? you know , i 'm trying . i 'm trying so hard not to be angry . i know how torn up he is about this . and i know he did n't mean for this to happen , but he never means for it to happen , right ? so why does it keep happening ? [ scene_break ] sonny : are you gon na throw stone in my face ? robin : are you gon na dishonor his memory ? i mean , do you ever stop and think what stone would do with one more day , how much life he would cram into that ? sonny : one more day ? one more day , somebody else that i love is gon na die , just like morgan . robin : no . sonny : yes ! robin : no , sonny ! that 's your grief talking . no , no . no , no . suicide does n't solve anything . it does n't ease anyone 's pain . [ sighs ] maybe yours . i mean , it would destroy your family -- carly and dante and your daughters . sonny : they do n't need me around ! they do n't need me ! they do n't want me around ! i 'm a danger to them ! it would be a relief if i was not here ! robin : no ! it would be cowardice . [ scene_break ] anna : charlotte asleep ? griffin : yes . anna : on your first try . no , i 'm just saying . griffin : [ scoffs ] i think i 'm gon na call it a night . thank you for sharing your story with me . it 's given me a lot to think about . anna : like you did n't have enough already . if you need to talk any more , you know -- griffin : i know who to call . anna : [ chuckles ] yeah . griffin : but i think the next conversation i 'm gon na have is gon na be with the bishop . anna : oh . griffin : you know , even though i 'm on leave , i need to apprise my superior of what 's transpired , you know , regardless of what i decide to do . you think it 's too late to ... call ? anna : what is that ? griffin : it 's claudette 's locket . she must have slid it in my pocket when she knocked me out . she loves this thing . i ca n't believe she gave it up . anna : she left her daughter with you . how can you be surprised that she 'd trust you with her keepsake , too ? good night . [ scene_break ] valerie : if you 're not working for julian jerome anymore , jordan should calm down . curtis : problem solved . officer : spencer , there 's a dustup in the drunk tank . we need all hands right now . valerie : i 'll be right back . curtis : yeah . all right . [ sighs ] [ police radio chatter ] [ scene_break ] jason : so , how does the pcpd know that this is the guy that rigged the bomb in jerome 's car ? jordan : well , forensics matched the c-4 to a recipe that 's a signature of this bomb maker . jason : the signature of the bomb maker ? jordan : mm - hmm . jason : oh , well , somebody could have just copied that . i 'm afraid all you have here is circumstantial . jordan : well , it 's enough to bring the guy in . he 's got a lot of priors . got a lot of reasons to not stand before a judge again . how long do you think before he cuts a deal and gives up your boss ? jason : oh , sonny 's not my boss . he 's my friend . jordan : when was the last time you did a favor for your friend ? jason : [ chuckles ] you know what ? this is starting to sound a lot like an interrogation , commissioner , so i 'm afraid we 're gon na have to stop talking unless my lawyer is here . jordan : you do n't have to worry about that . just listen . this is a very dangerous time to be linked to sonny corinthos . it would be a real shame to let your old friendship bring you down after you 've worked so hard to rebuild your life . [ scene_break ] sonny : are you trying to shame me into getting what you want ? robin : no , no . i 'm not manipulating you , sonny . i 'm simply telling you the truth . you have done so many wonderful , selfless things for me . but if you do this , i 'm not gon na remember you for the friend and -- and the loyal , loving person that you are . i 'm gon na remember you for your weakness . you say it 's your fault , that morgan is dead because of you . sonny : he is . robin : well , then it 's your responsibility to live with it , to give meaning to his life and his death . sonny : i do n't know how , robin . robin : well , you 're certainly not gon na figure it out from the grave . if you bow out now , i mean , you ca n't take responsibility for what you 've done , and you 're gon na leave everyone else to pick up the pieces . is that the kind of man you are ? the kind of father that runs out on his debts , on his family ? sonny : no . robin : i did n't think so . [ sighs ] i feel like stone brought me here tonight . sonny : yeah ? maybe he did . it 's getting late . i got to -- you should probably go . robin : come with me . sonny : no , i just -- i want to -- i need to spend some time alone . robin : just you and your gun ? sonny : you do n't have to worry . i mean , you got that . i give you my word . robin : [ voice breaking ] okay , well , the word of sonny corinthos means a lot to me . does it still mean something to you ? sonny : yeah , it does . robin : i love you , sonny . sonny : yeah , i love you , too . [ scene_break ] michael : dad murdered aj . yes , there were circumstances , but he promised me he 'd stay away from aj , just like he promised me he would stay away from julian . carly : i wanted to believe him . michael : i did believe him . i believed him when he said he would n't hurt aj . i believed him when he said he had nothing to do with his death . and in the end , i believed him when he said how sorry he was for what he 'd done , when he vowed to be better . but he is n't . sonny corinthos will never change . [ breathes deeply ] maybe we should have known better . maybe -- maybe it 's not dad 's fault that -- that morgan died . maybe ... maybe it 's our fault . [ scene_break ] anna : i will have a good irish whiskey -- rocks , please . robin : make that two . i 'm buying . anna : [ gasps ] robin ! come here ! thank god .

[ sighs ] [ scene_break ] [ sonny remembers ] carly : i 'm mad at everyone . i 'm mad at you . i 'm mad at me . i 'm mad at kiki . but that does n't change anything . it does n't change anything because morgan 's dead , and i 'm not gon na get to hear his voice anymore . and i 'm not gon na get to hear him laugh anymore .

[ scene_break ] carly : it was the night of the hotel fire . and alexis and i were caught in that elevator , and we were dangling by that cable . it did n't matter anymore that we hated each other . it was like we were just these two women who were mothers who thought they 'd never see their children again . sonny : i know what happened the night of the fire , but what does that have to do with kristina being sick ? carly : sonny , alexis admitted things to me that night that she never would have told me under other circumstances , and i -- i promised that i 'd never -- jason : hey . i just came from the hospital . they found a marrow donor for kristina . carly : are you sure ? jason : yeah , i heard dr. webber tell alexis . carly : oh , my god , it 's a miracle . i -- sonny : well , that 's great news for both of them . jason : yeah . carly : yeah . jason : we have some business , when you get a chance ? sonny : ok , just -- give me a minute . carly : uh -- sonny : you were -- carly : no , you know what , sonny ? it 's ok . it does n't matter . it 's fine . sonny : well , it did n't sound that way . you want to talk -- carly : no , you know -- i was just -- i was just going to tell you that this has got to be hard for alexis and how much she loves her daughter , but you know that , really , so what is the point , right ? i got to -- sonny : where are you going ? carly : oh , you know , i 'm just -- i 'm going to let you guys do your thing . i 'm going to go to the hospital and visit my father . jason : alcazar made a move .

[ scene_break ] jax : if i found you -- if i found you in bed with jason , i 'd be jealous , too , but at least i 'd be honest enough to admit it . courtney : jason has nothing to do with this , jax . jax : he 's the reason you stood me up . courtney : no , if you had bothered to check your voicemail or speak with your secretary in between your rounds of mattress tags , you would have found out that i stayed for morgan 's birthday party and that i took a commercial flight to the island to be with you . jax : is that true ? courtney : yeah . but do n't worry , jax . i wo n't make that mistake again . in fact , i should probably send that little sweetheart of yours a thank - you note . did you get her address , or did you even bother to get her name ? jax : would you stop it ? do n't you get it ? i 'm in love with you . [ scene_break ] alexis : is your arm ok ? i know it hurts , sweetie , ok ? we 're going to fix it . ric : you 're going to be out of here soon . alexis : yeah . are you cold ? there we go . ned : how 's she doing ? alexis : she 's doing great . ned : you found a donor ? alexis : yes . some woman in port charles . she 's on her way over here . ned : oh , that 's incredible . did you hear that ? oh , it 's so exciting . yes , my little sweetheart , you 're going to be out of here anytime now . yes , you are . ric : listen , i 'll leave you two alone with your daughter . alexis : it came right at the perfect time . i was just about to tell jason about sonny . ned : you were going to tell jason ? alexis : i thought that because he lied about michael out of desperation that he would understand why i lied and he would explain it to sonny . ned : well , thank god , because i think obviously she 's better off without sonny . alexis : sonny would have found a way to take her away from me , and both of our lives would have been destroyed . [ scene_break ] carly : i heard you found a bone - marrow donor for kristina . steven : yes , yes . her name came up on the donor network . she lives nearby and is going to be here any minute . carly : oh . you know , i nearly told sonny that he was kristina 's father . then jason came in , and he gave us the news . steven : ok , carly , this is absolutely none of my business , but have you ever just considered telling sonny the truth ? carly : yeah , all the time . steven : so why do n't you ? carly : listen , i gave alexis my word . and it would probably destroy my marriage . steven : so you do n't think sonny would understand ? carly : sonny is a -- he 's a complicated man . ok , but when it comes to his children , he is very clear . he wants to take care of them . no , listen to me . he wants them in his life . and the fact that i kept kristina away from him and did n't tell him that she was his -- if he finds out , he 's not going to get past it . [ scene_break ] nikolas : alexis must be doing cartwheels down the corridor . ric : well , not quite , but she 's pretty happy . emily : so are we . nikolas : yeah . ric : one less pending disaster to keep you up at night , huh ? nikolas : yeah , something like that , i guess . ric : well , maybe i can lighten the load a little bit . i spoke to mac . he agreed to revise his statement about the shooting of mary bishop . that gives me the room to offer you a plea bargain . nikolas : ok . what are the details ? ric : i want you to plead no contest to mayhem . you will get a suspended sentence and 100 hours of community service . nikolas : 100 hours -- well , that -- that seems fair , i -- ric : mary bishop was a dangerous and deranged person . i do n't think anybody should have to pay for her death . nikolas : thank you . thank you for helping me . i ca n't remember the last time i had this much good news in one day . ric : i 'll leave you to it . nikolas : thank you . nikolas : well , that 's it . we 're free . mary 's out of our lives forever .

[ scene_break ] carly : hey . how you feeling ? john : cranky . carly : why ? john : five murders in manhattan in the last month , all of them mob related , and here i am , lying flat on my ass , doing nothing about it . carly : well , do n't worry about it . you 'll be back there soon enough . right now you need to concentrate on your recovery . john : well , actually , carly , i 'll be back there very soon . i -- i need a little follow - up surgery . they got to sew something up . it 's nothing serious , but with all due respect to the folks here at general hospital , i really would feel a little bit safer with my own doctors in new york . carly : yeah . well , if you think that 's best -- john : i do . does n't mean i wo n't miss you . carly : so , you have someone who 's going to take you to the hospital ? john : oh , yeah , yeah . you 're looking at him . carly : ok , what about after the operation ? you have a friend , your relatives that can come take care of you ? john : i do n't need anything . i got chinese menus from every restaurant on the upper west side . carly : no , that 's not going to work . john : well , what does work , then ? carly : i 'll go with you . [ scene_break ] courtney : thinking you 're in love and being in love are n't the same thing . jax : courtney , i know the difference . courtney : well , then , maybe we need to define what we mean by `` in love , `` jax . to you , it 's just the chase and the excitement of winning a stupid -- jax : oh , see , we 're right back to where we started . i 'm the superficial player never to be taken seriously ? courtney : i have taken you seriously . jax : then why wo n't you go to the next step with me ? courtney : because , jax -- because i know it 'll never last . jax : no , no , no . you 're just afraid to try . courtney : we 're just -- we 're different people , you know ? we do n't share the same values . we do n't have the same dreams . jax : look , i know that you 've been hurt , and that protecting yourself is only natural , but sooner or later , you 're -- you know , you 're going to have to take a chance . courtney : do n't you think i know that ? but the problem is i just do n't want to take it with you . jax : why not ? courtney : look , i know how much you have to offer , jax . and for most women , you would be a dream come true . but for me , love is -- it 's about trust and security and commitment and -- and i do n't believe that you 'll ever be able to give me any of those things . jax : i 'm going to miss you . [ scene_break ] heather : edward 's going to spot that psychiatrist as soon as he starts talking . tracy : he 's not as sharp as he used to be . otherwise , he would n't be married to you . edward : welcome to kelly 's , sir . it 's nice to have you here . would you like to hear our specials ? one , yankee pot roast , two , chicken a la king , and , three , my favorite , macaroni and cheese . dr. lightfoot : i 'll have that . edward : perfect order , perfect . would you like some beverage ? our iced tea -- it 's our own blend , special . dr. lightfoot : no , thanks , i 'm fine . but if i may say so , it 's nice to see a man who enjoys his work . edward : well , thank you . that 's very nice . actually , i 've been a businessman all my life . you know , i 've built companies , i build them up and i crunch numbers and i fire people here and there , all on a big stage , but , you know , this -- you roll up your sleeves , you do something like a nice , honest day 's work ? i ca n't tell you how i appreciate this , how much i enjoy it . dr. lightfoot : no regrets about what you left behind ? edward : oh , no , nothing , none whatsoever . dr. lightfoot : and your family -- how do they feel about it ? edward : i have n't listened to anything they say in years . besides that , the most important thing is my wife supports me 100 % . dr. lightfoot : you 're a lucky man . edward : well , it 's all the solace i have now now that she 's gone . dr. lightfoot : `` gone `` ? edward : yes , my wife passed away a few months ago . but she visits me in dreams . dr. lightfoot : so you believe that your wife supports you from the beyond ? edward : i talk to her every day . [ scene_break ] emily : hey , did you happen to notice where my fiancé went ? nurse : i think he went to see kristina . emily : ok , thanks . i 'll log these in while i 'm waiting for him . nikolas -- [ scene_break ] alexis : look , i know that i 've given your family a hard time , and they really rallied around kristina , and i just want you to know that i 'm not going to forget that . ned : every quartermaine has the capacity to be a decent person . we just need to be encouraged to get there , i guess . alexis : it was a mistake for me not to include you and your family in kristina 's life , and i want to change that . ned : well , thank you . i know brook lynn and i would love to spend more time with kristina . i 'm sure the rest of the family would , too . alexis : i 've had to rethink a lot of decisions that i 've made . and i think that you should be -- i want you to be a part of her life . i want you to be a father to her that sonny ca n't be . ned : all right . well , do n't worry , all right ? sonny is no longer a factor . alexis : i 'm not so sure about that . nikolas : sorry . sorry to interrupt , but is sonny causing some sort of trouble for you ? alexis : no , no . i was just explaining to ned that ric lansing has been really wonderful . and as much as i try not to like him , i do , and so does kristina , and the only problem -- i was just telling him that -- is that he 's sonny 's brother . ned : and i was assuring her that sonny ca n't stand ric and wo n't be a factor . not that i 'm in favor of you being involved with ric lansing . alexis : well , `` involved `` is a pretty strong word . i mean , we 're acquaintances , maybe . i mean , friends , on a good day . nikolas : alexis , alexis , you can stop explaining that . alexis : ok , all right . nikolas : excuse me . hey , listen , i just want you to know , as soon as you 're out of here , i 'm going start teaching you how to ride . what do you think about that ? alexis : no , you most certainly will not . nikolas : shh . but , see , do n't tell your mom , because she does n't know yet . listen to me . let me know if you need anything , ok ? alexis : thank you . nikolas : all right . alexis : thanks . nikolas : i 'm so glad this is almost over . come here . alexis : good . nikolas : bye . alexis : thanks .

[ scene_break ] justus : listen to me , faith . i am not going to risk your life by trying to break you out of prison . i 'd rather work through the system and get you out of prison that way . faith : that could take years and still never happen . oh , i want to have a life with you now . justus : so do i , but i 'm not going to risk your life in the process . [ scene_break ] luke : well , faith seems to think that justus will do anything she asks him to . skye : if she bails on us , that means i 'm going back to pentonville and you 're being charged with aiding and abetting , which means that lorenzo alcazar becomes sole owner of the haunted star . luke : that wo n't happen . skye : how are we going to stop this , luke ? luke : i 'll think of something . [ scene_break ] faith : you do n't understand . another day in this place is going to drive me out of my mind . i need you so badly , justus . please help make this happen .

[ scene_break ] tracy : psst . insane , right ? non compos mentis ? dr. lightfoot : your father is actually quite lucid . he believes in the afterlife , as do many rational people . tracy : oh , please ! the other day he was laughing out loud over some joke he said my mother told him in his dreams . are you telling me normal people do that ? dr. lightfoot : actually , they do . on the other hand , the loss of a loved one can cause a psychotic break . heather : can or did ? dr. lightfoot : did . no question . edward quartermaine is certifiably insane . [ scene_break ] sonny : leave alcazar alone for now . let this thing with durant play out . jason : sonny , you really think durant 's going to ever prosecute alcazar for the shooting ? sonny : hey , you know what ? he might . i do n't think durant appreciates alcazar trying to kill him . jason : well , you know what ? alcazar had the right idea , because it would be a lot easier for everyone if durant was dead . sonny : i agree with you . but he 's a federal prosecutor . he 's using carly , and carly is going to find out sooner or later , and she 's going to be crushed . i hate him for that . still , i do n't want him dead . he 's her father . he 's her blood . i see what alexis is going through with kristina . if this ever happened to michael or morgan -- god forbid -- we actually might have to use durant to save them . and when you 're talking about your children , when your children 's life is at stake , all bets are off . you do what you got to do . you 'll even go to your enemy for help .

[ scene_break ] sonny : hey . carly : hey ! what are you doing here ? sonny : i 'm looking for you . carly : yeah ? sonny : yeah . carly : how come ? sonny : well , because i 'm hungry , right , and when i 'm eating , i like to see your face across the table . carly : hmm , and i feel the same way about your face . sonny : yeah ? carly : but i ca n't join you . sonny : why ? carly : john needs to have another surgery . and it 's not serious or anything , but he wants to have it done in manhattan . sonny : so durant 's leaving town ? carly : yeah . i want to go with him , sonny . i think he should have someone around him . sonny : what did he do before he met you ? carly : i do n't know . i guess he got through it alone , but , you know , he should n't have to . i 'm his daughter . i should be there .

[ scene_break ] jason : claudia came to me and she told me that anthony offered you his entire organization , but you have to marry her to close the deal . sonny : i turned him down . it 's -- it 's ridiculous . jason : sonny , i know how bad you want karpov . i can see you convincing yourself to take this deal . sonny : i ca n't go after karpov on my own . you should have taken a deal . that way , you and claudia would be married , i 'd be locked out of the zacchara organization as well as my own . you 'd be running both . that 's what you want , is n't it ? jason : i never wanted to be against you . sonny : you say that , but actions speak louder than words . look what you 've done . you help carly take my son . and now when i need the organization more than ever , you wo n't do what needs to be done . jason : you know you that can not trust the zaccharas , right ? you know that . sonny : i know i ca n't trust the zaccharas , but you 're putting me in a position where i 'm starting not to trust you . jason : yeah , but anthony is going to use the situation to provoke a war that could bring us all down . he wants us to be against each other . sonny : you think i do n't know that ? why are you telling me something i know ? jason : because i want to protect you from the zaccharas , to buy you some time to think . that 's why i almost married claudia . sonny : you want me to tell you what `` almost married `` really means ? you 're standing at the altar watching the most beautiful woman you 've ever seen walk down the aisle toward you , right ? and you realize that you have been given a priceless gift . you love this woman . you 've loved her for a long time . and as she 's walking toward you , it -- for the first time in a long time , it starts to make sense . you understand that everything , good or bad , has lead up to this moment . and you convince yourself that , you know , everything is going to be fine , that you 're going to be with this woman forever . so she 's standing right in front of you , she looks in your eyes , and at first , the sound does n't make sense . and then she collapses right in front of you , and you 've got blood on your hands from a shot . that 's what `` almost `` means . jason : making a deal with the zaccharas , it 's not going to change anything , sonny . sonny : i did n't make a deal with the zaccharas . i turned down claudia . jason : then walk away . do n't let the zaccharas pull you in . sonny : okay , you 've got to understand something . whatever i decide to do is for the protection of everybody . yes , i do n't trust the zaccharas , but i may find out what makes them tick . you do n't want to help me , so i 'm going to handle it the way i handle it and you 're going to handle it the way you handle it . and at the end , if we 're on opposite sides , so be it . [ scene_break ] claudia : is this a bad time ? kate : go away . claudia : are you up for a little chat , woman to woman ? kate : i have nothing to say to you . claudia : yeah , well , i 'm going to need some insight before i marry sonny . kate : um , wow . so i 'm going to wake up any moment , right , and this is all going to be a bad hospital nightmare and you 're going to be gone . claudia : sorry to disappoint you , but you 've been missing out on a lot being cooped up in here . you know , my father -- my father offered to let sonny run the zacchara organization , but here 's the kicker -- sonny has to marry me first . kate : you really are delusional . claudia : i just hope my wedding to sonny goes better than yours did . [ scene_break ] olivia : so what 's the plan ? you gon na park this baby out here and hope someone 's going to buy it ? patrick : yep . olivia : not that you actually want to sell it . you know , marriage is n't supposed to mean giving up the thing you love most . it 's supposed to be adding to it . patrick : yeah , i do n't think driving 143 miles an hour around a track fits with getting married and having a baby on the way . olivia : did robin tell you to quit ? patrick : she would never do that . just , you know , accidents can happen . i do n't think it 's very responsible of me . olivia : you a decent driver ? patrick : i learned a long time ago that without my hands , i do n't have a career . so i drive fast , but i 'm careful . olivia : so why quit ? patrick : hard to justify the time . olivia : what , are you going to join nascar now ? you 're going to be part of the chase ? patrick : well , no , i just like to race . spent a lot of time at the track with my dad when i was growing up . olivia : you want to deprive your child of that connection ? you give this up , sooner or later you 're going to start resenting robin and the baby for it . patrick : it 's not their fault . olivia : would you even be thinking about quitting if you were n't getting married ? look , all i 'm saying is do n't give up the thing you love most just because you 're making some big changes in your life . keep racing . patrick : that 's pretty wise for someone who 's never been married . olivia : yeah , i 'm just an objective observer . you know , just be honest . be grateful for everything in your life , and you 'll wind up happy enough in the end . [ scene_break ] anna : i 'm sorry i missed all the festivities . looks like it was fun . robin : yeah , it was a lot of fun . it was just , um , nothing much , though , just a surprise bridal shower - slash - wedding shower at jake 's . anna : wow . robin : but , i mean , patrick and i have been working non - stop just so that we can have time to take off after the wedding . anna : you have n't been overdoing it , have you ? robin : please . uncle mac has been hovering enough for the both of you . anna : i 'm sorry . i know it 's ridiculous to be nervous , especially me . i mean , i 'm not the pregnant one about to marry mr. heartthrob of general hospital . my daughter is marrying a doctor . [ anna laughs ] robin : mom , i happen to be a doctor , too . anna : i know . i 'm just being old - fashioned . i ca n't help it . it 's so great . wow . sometimes i look at you and i -- i forget you 're all grown up . i mean , i remember being pregnant with you . you know , i was all fat and i loved you so much and i wanted to give you the best life i possibly could . robin : you did . anna : yeah . i mean , i suppose that all mothers , you know , imagine their daughter 's wedding day . but now it 's here and you 're all so beautiful and accomplished and about to bring your own daughter into the world . somehow , it just feels like a total surprise . [ scene_break ] maxie : you know , i would always picture the perfect wedding . not for me , but for my mom and mac . he loved her so much . i always wanted them to get married so that we could be a family . they did eventually get married . it was a double - wedding with two people that you do n't know , kevin and lucy . i still think something weird was going on behind the scenes , but i was happy . and i got to wear a really pretty dress . georgie and i gave our mom the blue ribbons from our hair for her bouquet . you know , something blue . spinelli : yes , i am aware of the tradition . maxie : she looked so beautiful that day . and i believed everything she said . she said her heart would always belong to mac , that he was her wisdom and her hope . they got married and i thought we would be a family forever . less than a year later , she started having an affair with luke spencer and she left us . their wedding meant nothing . spinelli : the jackal has been long aware of that maximista carries great pain . maxie : i hate my mom . i really do , but i 'm just like her . spinelli : no . i have to disagree most vehemently . maxie : she 's a liar , she 's unfaithful , she makes terrible choices just like me . so i promised myself a long time ago that i would never hurt anyone the way my mom hurt mac or georgie or me , so i 'll never get married . [ scene_break ] sonny : oh , are you here to give me brotherly love ? because i really would like that . ric : do n't marry claudia . do n't even consider it . sonny : who told you ? ric : claudia did , okay ? it 's a bad idea , sonny . it 's an insane idea . sonny : is anthony upset that you 're here undercutting him ? ric : look , i 'll handle anthony , okay ? right now , my main concern is claudia . sonny : do n't worry about it . i turned him down . ric : sonny , we both know this is his first step in the negotiation . you 're just trying -- you want to make him sweat a little bit . i know you , sonny . you need anthony zacchara and his organization in order to bring down karpov . so at some point , you will have to make a compromise . all i 'm saying is , do n't involve claudia . sonny : what is this really about , ric ? you do n't want me to run the organization because you think i 'm going to do better than you , or you do n't want me with claudia ? [ scene_break ] kate : there is absolutely no way that sonny would even consider marrying you . he despises you . claudia : yeah , but he 's hot for me at the same time , and that 's a powerful combination . come on , he 's never forgotten that night between us . he 's always wanted more . he just could n't admit it . kate : you know that everyone has moved on from that night , right ? except for you . claudia : i would n't be so sure about that , sweetheart . because i can offer sonny more than sex now . i can offer him power . real power . and there is nothing sexier to sonny than power . kate : yes , claudia . but if that power comes from you , i can assure you he 's not interested . claudia : really ? where is sonny now , by the way ? i just think he 'd be sitting right here next to you . but maybe he just wanted to see if he could get a social climber like yourself to drop everything in her life for him . he could . he did . he 's gone . kate : you know nothing about me and sonny . claudia : you know what i know ? you ca n't touch what i can offer him -- the entire zacchara empire and red hot sex . sure , first he has to say no . he has to act noble . but i promise you something , at the end of the day , he 's mine . olivia : get the hell away from my cousin . [ scene_break ] jason : just make sure everyone stays on the job , okay ? we do n't need anything to escalate . spinelli 's not here . maxie : i know . i came to talk to you and it wo n't take long . do you think you could put that away ? jason : what -- what do you need , maxie ? maxie : it just really creeps me out . jason : i got a lot to do today , okay ? maxie : is that why you refuse to go to patrick and robin 's wedding , because you have to whack someone ? that 's rude . jason : robin understands why i 'm not going to her wedding . robin : because robin is a wonderful , understanding person who gives you permission to be selfish and inconsiderate , but i do not . jason : okay . maxie : okay ? that 's it ? jason : yeah , that 's it . i 'm really busy . maxie : how many weddings do you think robin is going to have ? i mean , this is n't like carly , who gets married every five minutes so if you skip out on one , it 's not that big of a deal . this is probably the only wedding robin 's ever going to have . jason : i understand that . maxie : and you 've been a huge part of her life . by some miracle , you managed to show robin compassion and empathy and love when she needed it . i just think you should be there with her when she marries patrick . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm not going to marry claudia unless it 's to get what i want . besides , it 's a chump deal . it 's -- it was worked up by , you know , an old man . and i 'm telling you , anthony is not stable . because if he were , he would n't be putting his daughter in this situation . i do n't want any part of it . ric : well , i hope that 's true . sonny : i 'm going to figure out another way to work this out . ric : well , he needs your expertise , your -- as much , if not more , than you need his . look , as somebody close to the situation , sonny , i can assure you that anthony will eventually cave . sonny : why do n't you -- why do n't you marry her ? [ ric chuckles ] sonny : no , no , i 'm -- if you -- i 'm dead serious . you convince anthony that you can run the organization and cut me out completely . ric : we know that 's not going to happen , right ? look , all i 'm saying is that she 's been through enough with this family . she 's not as tough as she seems . just do me a favor -- stay away from her . [ scene_break ] olivia : you get the hell out of this room . claudia : are n't you going to tell your cousin why i 'm here ? olivia : you 're the trashy , psycho daughter of a psycho mob boss . why would i listen to a word that came out of your mouth ? claudia : you 're both going to have to treat me with a lot more respect when i 'm mrs. sonny corinthos . think about it . olivia : do n't worry about it honey , okay ? do n't listen to a word she says . she 's a crazy nut - job . kate : okay , well , that crazy nut - job claims she 's going to marry sonny . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm -- i 'm happy for robin . that 's why i do n't want to risk bringing any danger or violence to her wedding . maxie : i seriously doubt that anyone will start shooting up robin 's wedding . and you do n't have to remind me about what happened to kate , because that was a totally different situation . jason : i still do n't want to put robin at risk . maxie : do you not get this ? i was around for the whole stone thing . i saw how much robin loved him , and then he died right in front of her . and somehow you were able to help her move on with her life . i think that if it was n't for you , robin might not have even tried that hiv drug cocktail . jason : well , she 's done a lot for me , too . maxie : my point exactly . come on , jason . this is the one night you can help robin celebrate the life she made for herself . you should really be there . do n't mess it up . [ scene_break ] anna : i know today is really not the day for regrets or anything , but if i could do it over -- robin : mom , do n't do that because we ca n't do anything over . i mean , all we really have is now . anna : i know , i know . i know that . but as mother of the bride , um , i 'm allowed to look back on my daughter 's wedding day -- it 's written down . it 's like a rule , okay ? so i am allowed to treasure all my memories and be so grateful for the time that we did spend together . i 'll always be sorry that i was n't there to support you when stone died and that i was n't there for you when you found out you had hiv . because taking care of you was my responsibility , and i did let you down . robin : i made it through because of you . i mean , because of your courage and because of your strength . you taught me to live my life no matter what , and that 's exactly what i did . and now i 'm looking forward to a life with the man that i love and my child . and maybe we did miss some important times , but you 're here now , and that 's all that matters to me . i could n't be happier , mom .

[ scene_break ] epiphany : the labs should be up in about a half an hour . you 're going to have to check on that skull fracture in room 1014 . i assigned a nurse to him , but then i do n't know if -- matt : nurse johnson , i am the doctor . that means i get to give the orders . epiphany : well , by all means , do n't allow me to stand in your way . i need to go home and get ready for the wedding , anyway . what are you -- what are you still doing here ? patrick : picking up my charts . epiphany : you ca n't be serious . you ca n't be bothered to go home and get ready for your own wedding ? patrick : i have plenty of time to do my rounds and get ready for my wedding . epiphany : why are you so determined to tempt fate ?

[ scene_break ] sonny : i know you suddenly got something against kate . why ? because you think kristina 's gon na be working for her ? alexis : you know , i admit that might have been just a slight overreaction . sonny : you think ? no kidding . alexis : you know that i like her . i like her very much . i wish her every success . sonny : you still want to bump into her at my house . is that it ? alexis : that 's not true . that is not true at all . you know what is true , though ? i really identify with her . sonny : ah . okay . alexis : she 's highly intelligent . she 's worked very , very hard to be very successful in a very demanding and competitive job . she has carefully managed her life . her goals are in place . she 's very cultured and sophisticated . occasionally a little lonely , but that 's what work is for . you know , it 's a perfect distraction . and then you come along ... all complicated and all contradictory ... sonny : sexy . alexis : ... and arrogant , and then you 're like , `` oh , somebody please save me . save me . `` sonny : okay , wait , wait . i 've never asked anybody to save me . alexis : and that 's what makes it all the more compelling . [ sonny sighs ] alexis : you are an emotional quagmire . simultaneously the most fun and the most misery that any woman could ever experience . but that 's just my impression . sonny : ca n't say you 're wrong . [ scene_break ] ethan : look , you knew that dante was a cop a long time ago . you know the dangers involved . lulu : i thought i did . ethan : you were all ready to accept his marriage proposal . i mean , what 's the deal ? the guy gets shot , and now you 're gon na say no ? lulu : i said yes . ethan : you did ? lulu : mm - hmm . i , um -- i said yes when he was in the hospital after his surgery . he was -- he was weak , and he , uh , kind of was pushing me to answer him , and olivia basically said that saying yes would give him a reason to live , and he was actually making me feel that way , too . ethan : lulu , engagement by peer pressure ? come on . lulu : i said yes on the condition that nobody else knew until after he was better . ethan : so , wait . i 'm the only one that knows ? lulu : you and his mom . ethan : [ chuckles ] okay , so , if they were n't pressuring you , would you still have said yes ? lulu : i do n't know . i love him . i love him ... so much -- more than i ever thought that i could love anyone , but seeing him in that hospital again , fighting for his life again , it just ... it made me feel like this fantasy of our future life together is denying reality . he 's a cop . he 's sonny 's son . ethan : yeah , that second part is non - negotiable , right ? lulu : he 's always gon na be in danger . and , uh ... i just do n't know whether or not i 'm gon na be able to live with that . ethan : what do you think laura would say about all this ? [ scene_break ] dante : what happened to me in that warehouse did n't just cost me a part of my lung . i 'm pretty sure lulu 's having second thoughts over whether or not she can deal with being a cop 's wife . michael : well , look , she knows the risks . she has to decide if she can live with them or not . i mean , it 's better now than later , right ? dante : she 's seen me twice now in the icu with a bullet . it does n't help that both times sonny was involved . michael : look , i ca n't argue with you about the first time , okay , but i really do n't think you can blame dad this time . dante : michael , it was on his turf . michael : yeah , in his coffee warehouse . it 's completely legit . dante : you and i both know someone did n't shoot me because sonny 's coffee beans were bad . michael : i got to get going . dante : so , uh , what about shawn butler ? how did he get involved again ? michael : [ sighs ] he , uh , just showed up after the shooting . dante : okay . they found this homemade bomb when the police were doing the search of the warehouse ? michael : yeah , which would point to one of dad 's enemies trying to blow up the place . dante : that does n't make any sense . there 's no way sonny would let you keep that job if that was the case , no matter how much you argued with him . michael : what are you trying to say ? dante : i 'm trying to say i got some friends down at the station to do some digging on mr. butler . turns out he 's quite the science geek . could have made that bomb in his sleep . michael : okay , why would he do that ? dante : i do n't know , michael . i was hoping you could tell me . [ scene_break ] sam : need any help ? carly : yeah , you and jason can come back to port charles . sam : absolutely not . carly : why ? what 's so important about this honeymoon that you 're willing to make jason a target for franco ? sam : i - i did not make jason a target for franco . he did that all on his own . i realize he is a threat . carly : if you realize he 's a threat , then why are n't you taking it seriously ? sam : oh , my god . carly , do you really want to talk about what 's going on here right now ? jason is trying to set boundaries with you . yes , he told you to come to him in case of emergency . this is an emergency , but let 's be honest -- this is your excuse to show up here . carly : an excuse because i fear for my daughter 's life . sam : you have shawn looking after you and your daughter . carly : i do n't want jason to come back to port charles to take care of me and josslyn . i want jason in port charles so he has the advantage in case franco shows up , sam . sam : what if he does n't show up , carly ? jason and i do n't want to live our lives looking over our shoulders or worrying about the next move . we -- we want to be able to be free . carly : yeah , and i 've been where you are . it 's called denial . franco 's not gon na stop being a threat because you want him to . sam : well , then jason and i will deal with that . carly : is that what he told you ? jason wants you to help him deal with franco ? sam : he is my husband . yes , i will help him if he needs me . carly : i get that he is your husband . you know what ? but he 's also my friend . and we both know that franco tortures jason by going after the people he loves , sam . and we both know that franco wo n't stop . [ scene_break ] jason : okay , i want to make sure you 're available to stay in port charles indefinitely . shawn : i 'm not sure i 'm ready to talk long - term employment . jason : shawn , i got to end this franco thing , and that means i 'm gon na have to go after him . shawn : when ? jason : [ sighs ] man , i have n't decided . probably sooner than later , and i do n't know how long it 's gon na take , but i need to know that things are being handled while i 'm gone . shawn : i 'm not sure how cooperative sonny 's gon na be . jason : i 'm not worried about sonny . i 'm worried about carly and her kids , and i need to know that you 're gon na look after them for me . shawn : [ sighs ] okay . i wo n't consider the job done until franco 's been dealt with . good enough ? jason : appreciate that . all right . shawn : everything okay in here ? carly : how much longer is this honeymoon gon na last ? [ scene_break ] sonny : all that about a smart career woman should n't be with me -- that 's true to a point . but kate used to be called connie falconeri . we have a known past , a connection . it makes it easier for me to hear kate . and as you know , when brenda left , i went through a rough -- a rough period , and i made some bad choices . alexis : you can say that again . sonny : kate was pretty much my one -- she -- she reached me , you know ? she got to me . alexis : and i 'm sure that 's very intoxicating , that she can help you when no one else can . sonny : that 's not the word i 'd use . alexis : look , i know she 's being icy with you . i know that she 's acting like she has this all under control . and the more she pushes you away , the more determined you are to wear her down . am i right ? sonny : you know , she 's a challenge , you know , in a good way , and i like it . alexis : you know that she almost got killed the last time you two were to whatever , because that happens a lot with you and girls . it 's a repetitive pattern , and i would really hate to see anything happen to kate and then you blame yourself again . sonny : so you think i should leave her alone ? alexis : i think that she 's a grown woman who can make her own choices . i really , really , really want you to be careful with this - this time . sonny : i have a chance at something good , okay ? i just want to see where it goes .

[ scene_break ] lulu : where did you find that ? ethan : wyndemere . lulu : what were you doing at wyndemere ? ethan : i was -- i do n't know -- looking for answers . i guess trying to find pieces of a puzzle that [ chuckles ] i 'm not even a part of . she means so much to both you and lucky that i guess i got curious . lulu : and you like the picture so much you brought it back here ? ethan : she was damaged . she had this gash . so , i do n't know . it was probably just age or the weather or something . lulu : it 's crazy . it 's like looking into a mirror . ethan : what do you mean ? lulu : i do n't know . i do n't know . i just -- i wish i had more time to get to know her growing up . i mean , i know all the stories , you know , when dad would get them into some sort of situation . she was always there -- changing identities for them to go on the run , which is how i get my name . ethan : lesley lu . lulu : well , `` lesley `` was from my grandmother , but `` lu `` was an alias that she used multiple times . ethan : really ? see , she wanted to include you . lulu : yeah , but then she realized that raising a son on the run is not the best idea , so she convinced dad to settle down and ... ethan : live small . lulu : yeah . ethan : something luke is fundamentally incapable of . lulu : and then i came along , and she was more determined than ever . and as much as she tried to make it feel like a home , dad always felt it was a cage . ethan : yeah , it 's kind of a no - win situation , i think . lulu : she was trying so hard to do something that was never gon na happen . i think that 's what eventually broke her . ethan : what ? lulu : i do n't know . i 'm -- my situation with dante -- if it 's not gon na work and i 'm pushing it , i 'm -- ethan : oh , you 're scared that you 're more like laura than you realize and that you 're gon na break , just like her .

[ scene_break ] dante : look , clearly shawn put that bomb together to cover up what was really going on in the warehouse . michael , i walked in on something i was n't supposed to see . you 're there all the time . you had to know something was up . that 's why sonny and shawn wanted you off the job . michael : look , if you 're asking for my statement , i already gave it to your friends . dante : i 'm asking you as my brother . michael : and i 'm answering you as your brother . dante : you know something , maybe to do with why i got shot . you ca n't protect sonny by keeping the truth from me . michael : now you 're starting to sound like everybody else . when something goes bad , you automatically want to pin it on dad . dante : i was shot in the back . i think it 's a little bit different . michael : yeah , you were doing your job . actually , you were off duty . you decided to sweep the waterfront on your own . dante : yeah , i , uh -- i thought because jason was getting married , uh , an enemy of theirs would try and make a move . michael : yeah , and you were right about that . you 're just wrong about the way you handled it . dante : yeah , i did n't think i need backup , walking around sonny 's legitimate warehouse . michael : you know what i think really has you pissed off ? is that this whole thing is making lulu question whether you should be a cop or not . and you ca n't put that on dad . [ elevator bell dings ] that 's on you , dante -- nobody else . [ scene_break ] ethan : you should tell dante how you really feel . the sooner , the better . lulu : i 'm not gon na tell him while he 's in the hospital . i do n't know what to say . ethan : look , if i were in your shoes and i had a shot at something real , i 'd take it and run with it . lulu : no , you would n't . you would run in the opposite direction . ethan : i did n't with maya . lulu : with maya , there was money involved , and she was n't even dangerous enough for you . ethan : are you implying that i shy away from anything safe ? lulu : yes , absolutely . i think you 're exactly like dad , and -- and you are more interested in things that you ca n't and should n't have , and you would probably ignore something that was really good , right in front of you . ethan : you should listen to yourself . lulu : [ sighs ] my situation is different because i do n't want to lose dante to his job , and i do n't want him to feel like he needs to be someone else for me . ethan : it sounds to me like you 're afraid of becoming your parents , which is ridiculous , because you 're not laura and you 're not luke . just be your magnificent self , okay ? anything less would be unfair . lulu : wow , maybe you should be listening to yourself , because , actually , you 're the one who 's been feeling a little `` less than `` these days , and following in dad 's footsteps -- we both know where they lead .

[ chuckles ] uh , global warming , football . do you like football ? derek : i do . alexis : yeah , i do n't . uh , but molly 's boyfriend , tj said that i should probably learn something about it if i want to have a conversation with him in the next 10 years . derek : i think tj 's on to something . alexis : yeah . derek : you know , if he keeps growing like this , he has all the makings of a quarterback . alexis : yeah , well , that 's not gon na happen , 'cause if anyone tackles my grandson , i 'd have to sue them . derek : hmm . well , that 's something that you and danny can discuss in a decade or so . but , uh , in the meantime , let 's talk about his mom . what 's , uh -- what 's sam doing in new york ? alexis : oh , uh , she went there to see if she could find some information on this ava jerome 's brother . sam : ava must have had a reason to bring you here , because from what i know of her , this is not her style . silas : you know , maybe it was a proximity thing , you know ? this place is n't far from columbia , where i went to medical school . sam : oh , yeah ? well , how many bars are between there and here ? silas : 802 , although if i remember correctly , this place had great burgers . sam : you think ava came here for the food ? because i do n't . silas : is that your professional opinion ? sam : no , i just -- i do n't think it 's a coincidence that victor jerome brought his mistress here . delia : welcome to ryan 's . what can i get you ? sam : hi . um , he actually tells me that you serve a decent burger here . delia : decent ? our burgers are handcrafted . our beef is grass - fed and grain- finished . i 'm not sure what the last part of that means , but trust me , they are terrific . and i 'd know , 'cause i was married to the guy whose family owns this place . delia ryan coleridge at your service . silas : well , it 's nice to meet you , delia . delia : you look very familiar . silas : well , i used to -- i might have come in here a few times a lot of years ago . delia : no , no , no , no , no . you remind me of someone . wait ! i got it ! derek : i was n't aware that , uh , ava had a brother . alexis : well , apparently it 's a very well - kept secret . she even told her own daughter that she was an only child . derek : hmm . so , what makes you think that , uh , ava has a brother ? alexis : well , years ago , she told that to this dr. silas clay . apparently her brother has a lot of money and he helped her get into the art business . derek : hmm . well , so why is , uh -- why is sam looking into this ? is it -- is it for a client ? alexis : well , not so much a client . um , she 's partially doing this to help kiki out and get some information on her uncle . but sam is , uh , doing it for her own reasons . personal reasons . derek : such as ? patrick : if you 're asking me if i -- if i 'm sure that i want to marry sabrina , the answer is yes , i do . but it sounds like you have some misgivings . maxie : i 'm happy for you , patrick . really . patrick : look , maxie , i know obviously you and robin were very close . maxie : yeah , we were like sisters . i know that sounds cliché , but robin was the person that i went to for advice . i 'd like to think that i helped her , too . do you remember when she was determined to be a single mom and she refused to move out of her apartment ? she was gon na turn her closet into emma 's nursery ? i mean , poor emma . not only would she have been sleeping in a room with no windows , but where would robin have put her clothes ? thank god i talked her out of that . patrick : really ? 'cause i thought i did . maxie : [ scoffs ] patrick : had to convince her that i loved her and that i loved -- that i loved our child and that i just ... sorry . maxie : no , it 's ... it 's okay . that happens to me a lot . i think of something that robin said or did . it makes me smile and ... then it hits me that i 'll never see her again or hear her voice . patrick : i heard her voice . correction -- i thought i heard her voice . maxie : how ? patrick : a couple days ago , my cell rang . i picked it up , and i ... could have sworn it was robin on the line . carlos : so , when did patrick pop the question ? sabrina : the other night after i accused you of making that phone call . carlos : oh . i get it . so , one minute he 's getting a call from his dead wife , and the next minute , he 's proposing to you . nikolas : robin , you understand that you -- you ca n't leave this house , right ? and you certainly ca n't contact patrick . obrecht and faison are watching . if they find out that you 're planning to reveal that you 're alive , they 'll call jerry , and he 'll kill your parents . simple as that . and you remember the terms , do n't you ? robin : how could i forget ? nikolas : jerry had no problem shooting you at the metro court . he certainly wo n't hesitate to kill robert or anna or -- or both if he does n't get what he wants . robin : what am i supposed to do , nikolas ? just -- just stay here and do nothing while my husband marries another woman ? i mean , i have n't seen my little girl in two years . i have to get to them . they have to know that i 'm alive . nikolas : you will see patrick and emma again . but first , you have got to find a cure for jerry . robin : formulating that cure will take time . and then meanwhile , this horrible sabrina person just moves in on my family ? sabrina : what are you saying , carlos ? carlos : sounds to me like patrick 's got something to prove . does n't sound like a man who 's in love with you , sabrina . sounds like he 's trying to convince himself of something . you sure you want to marry a guy like that ? patrick : obviously it was a wrong number or a prank call . but for a second , i could have swore that i heard robin 's voice . and i know that sounds crazy . maxie : if you 're crazy , then i 'm certifiable . patrick : [ chuckles ] maxie : i 've seen georgie . she came to me to give me grief that the baby i was carrying for dante and lulu was really spinelli 's and mine . you know about all that , right ? patrick : yes . i heard . how 's the custody issues ? have they been resolved ? maxie : well , diane 's in front of a judge right now trying to get us a court order so we can take our baby home today . patrick : congratulations . maxie : thank you . [ chuckles ] i know what you 're probably thinking , though . `` what about lulu ? `` patrick : hey , i know how difficult this must be . i mean , when i found out that britt 's baby was n't mine , it was ... maxie : i know . and i know that i will be getting my daughter but losing another friend , which i deserve . patrick : for what it 's worth , i can tell that this is costing you . and however misguided you were , i know that you acted with the best of intentions , and i know that robin would think the exact same thing . maxie : patrick , i miss robin so much . i keep thinking that if she had been here the last few months , she would have found out the truth and ... given me grief about it . [ chuckles ] it 's ... patrick : it 's what ? maxie : it 's just funny that georgie came to me from beyond the grave but ... robin never did . nikolas : what makes you say that sabrina 's such a horrible person ? robin : obrecht . she told me that sabrina has been manipulating patrick this entire time . nikolas : robin , you might -- you might want to consider the source . because from my experience , uh , sabrina 's nothing like that . robin : you know her ? nikolas : no , i do n't know her well , but ... robin : well , what ? what 's ... what is she like ? nikolas : i do n't know . she 's -- she 's nice . she seems kind . and from everything i 've heard from elizabeth , sabrina genuinely loves patrick and adores emma . robin : i do n't know if that makes me feel better or worse . sabrina : i had that same reaction when patrick proposed after the supposed phone call from robin . carlos : hmm . well , what changed your mind , hmm ? i know it was n't the ring . you never gave a damn about stuff like that . because if you did , i would have showered you with jewelry and clothes all the time . sabrina : yeah , well , you would n't have wanted me if i could be bought . carlos : that 's right . i wanted you 'cause you 're so real , so honest . and when you told me you loved me , i thought it meant you always would . sabrina : i 've changed . carlos : so you say . sabrina : i 'm marrying patrick . carlos : so you say . sabrina : he loves me . carlos : maybe he 's threatened , hmm ? maybe he senses that he could lose you to me . sabrina : oh , you know what ? we actually talked about that . yeah , we talked about you . carlos : really ? sabrina : yeah . carlos : what did patrick have to say about me ? sabrina : well , i asked him if he was concerned about our history , was that prompting the proposal . and patrick was pretty adamant that it had nothing to do with you . carlos : hmm . okay , well , then so answer me this , sabrina . if you and patrick are so happy and in love and everything is so perfect and wonderful , why are you always coming to see me ? ava : when julian realized that you knew who he really was , he sent carlos after you to kill you . that 's who julian is . he 's an extremely dangerous man . and this is serious business . things could escalate very , very quickly , and they will not end until julian gets what he wants . morgan : i understand that . ava : do you ? really ? because what julian wants is to take sonny down and then take him out . so think about it . i know you 're angry with your father , but do you really want to go down this road ? sonny : i 'm not trying to shut you out . truth is , i would n't have gotten through connie 's death if it was n't for you . you -- you saved my life , literally . but it 's always best to stay out of my business . less you know , the better . olivia : i 'm a big girl . sonny : yes . olivia : and i 'm telling you that i 'm willing to take the risk . sonny : i already lost connie . i do n't want to lose you . olivia : you will lose me if you do n't let me in ! i 'm not gon na be one of those women that just walks in the other room and pretends that i do n't see what 's right in front of my face ! there 's obviously something eating you alive . sonny , i want to feel like you -- like you trust me enough to tell me what it is . sonny : i do trust you . you know i trust you , right ? well , that 's just -- no , no , no . olivia : give it . give it . oh , my god . it 's true ? julian jerome is not dead after all . sonny : [ sighs ] yes . julian jerome is very much alive . alexis : sam 's interest in ava 's brother has to do with julian jerome . derek : julian jerome . the , uh , dead mobster . alexis : the one and only . sam 's theory is that ... ava 's brother could be julian jerome . derek : wait . i - i -- i thought ava denied any connection to those people . alexis : well , she has repeatedly . but there 's more reason now than ever to think that she 's lying . derek : why is that ? delia : johnny ! my johnny ! silas : who 's johnny ? delia : johnny ryan , my son ! i do n't know . something about your eyes . no , he runs this place , and i come here , and i help him out every once in awhile , you know , when i have the time ... which is most of the time . see , my husband , roger , and i , we had a really successful nightclub called delia 's . and we were just starting to turn a profit , and then the economy tanked , and then everything went south . silas : we 're sorry to hear that . yeah . delia : yeah , well , you know , what can you do about it ? that 's life . and maybe it just was n't in the cards that i should be a successful nightclub owner . so , uh , i came back here to the family bar where i spend so much of my time . coffee ? silas : please . yeah . sam : yeah . sounds great . delia : okay . you got it . sam : thank you . silas : so , you 've , uh -- you 've been around here for a while , then ? delia : yeah . more years than i care to remember . silas : that 's -- that 's good . you might be able to help us . we 're -- we 're trying to get some information about a woman who used to come here a lot . a lot of years ago . delia : what 's her name ? sam : well , actually , we -- we do n't know her name . uh , but she used to come here with a man named victor jerome . i think they probably came -- silas : oh . sabrina : i came here as a courtesy . i was trying to be nice , because i thought you might get upset hearing my news . carlos : could have called . sabrina : okay , clearly you 've got some big theory about why i came here to see you , so might as well just spit it out . carlos : well , i 'm thinking that maybe you 're not as certain about patrick 's love as you say you are , that maybe part of you wanted to come and check in with the one who truly loves you with all his heart and soul . and that this courtesy is just a way of keeping the door open in case this engagement does n't work out . sabrina : you are so arrogant . carlos : i can be . but not when it comes to you . now , patrick , on the other hand , i think it 's arrogant of ho take you for granted . sabrina : oh , he does n't take me for granted . carlos : oh , no ? sabrina : no . carlos : when 's the wedding date ? you set one yet ? did n't think so . this is gon na be one of those two - year engagements , hmm , that kind of drag on and on and on because one of you -- or both of you -- deep down really do n't want it to happen . sabrina : look , patrick would n't have proposed , i would n't have accepted if we did n't want a future together . carlos : let me see that ring again . it 's nice . but i know you , sabrina . shiny diamond do n't mean a thing if there ai n't no love behind it . sabrina : i should have known better than to come here . maxie : if robin had come back from the dead [ chuckles ] she would have been pretty upset that i was lying to dante and lulu and spinelli about this baby . especially after everything she went through to become a mother . patrick : yeah , tell me about it . we broke up because of it . we got back together the night that georgie passed away . that was actually the night that emma was conceived . maxie : best mistake the two of you ever made . patrick : [ chuckles ] by far . but we had our obstacles , mostly because of my immaturity . maxie : do n't sell robin short . she was pretty stubborn . patrick : point is , we got over all those things . all our fears and our absolute joy , the pregnancy , the -- the birth . that day that we were supposed to get married . five years ago today . [ exhales sharply ] five years ago today . robin : well , i feel like a hypocrite . i mean , i made a dvd for patrick , and i told him that i wanted him to move on , that i wanted him to find someone else to love , and i wanted that person to love emma . and now you 're telling me that this person is sabrina , this person that i actually told him to find . nikolas : yeah , it seems to be . it sounds like patrick is doing exactly what you asked him to do . robin : yeah , except for one , tiny problem , nikolas ! i 'm not dead ! you know , i woke up this morning , and i realized that patrick is making wedding plans and today exactly five years ago was our wedding . this -- this ca n't be happening . alexis : if you were related to a mobster , would n't you be tempted to lie about it ? derek : well , i have n't given that question much thought . alexis : thank you . i have , trust me . [ clears throat ] you know , my daughter , kristina , had a very difficult time reconciling herself to her father 's alleged profession . derek : and you ? alexis : i just accept the fact that i find dangerous men attractive . derek : you said sam 's interest in julian jerome was personal ? alexis : you know , i probably should n't be talking to you about this because it 's -- oh , wow -- this is sam 's business . danny : [ coughs ] alexis : ooh , you okay , buddy ? there you go . but you 're kind of like family now , are n't you , so ... right , danny ? derek : yeah , i 'm sorry . i really , uh -- i really should n't pry . it 's a bad habit , asking questions . i suppose it goes along with -- with the territory . alexis : it also makes an interesting front page . this is off the record , right , between you and me ? derek : hey , i would never do anything to hurt you and your family . alexis : so , remember when i told you about this one - night stand and i thought that perhaps it could be with this man named julian jerome in new hampshire ? derek : yeah , you said it was a long shot , probably just a coincidence . alexis : sometimes long shots pay off . as it turns out , the man that i followed into that car was , in fact , julian jerome . he 's sam 's father . delia : i do n't know what 's the matter with me . i got , uh -- i got -- what do you call it ? uh , what do you call it ? dropsy or something . sam : wait a minute . wait a minute . so you -- so you knew him ? delia : who ? sam : what do you mean , who ? victor jerome . silas : victor jerome . delia : no , that name does n't even ring a bell . sam : really ? because he was very well - connected . hold on . wait . i have a picture . can you just at least look at the picture ? does he look familiar at all ? delia : oh , yeah , that victor jerome . yeah , yeah . i - i sort of remember him . sam : okay , well , do you remember him coming in here with a woman ever ? delia : are you two cops ? silas : cops ? believe me , i 'm no cop . i 'm -- i 'm a doctor . delia : then what 's with all the questions ? sam : um , listen , i 'm -- i 'm a private eye , and i just wanted to know if you knew anything about victor . and apparently he had a mistress , and she might have had a daughter , and her name is ava . do you know anything about that ? morgan : look , it 's not really a question of whether i can go down that road with you and julian . 'cause i 'm on it , ava . i know too much . ava : i just do n't want you to get hurt . physically or emotionally hurt . morgan : i understand , but that 's the least of my worries . ava : you 're still so young . and you think you 're invincible . but you 're not . morgan : i 'm not all that young . derek : well , you do like them dangerous , do n't you ? what do you say , danny ? huh ? is your grandpa a gangster ? [ chuckles ] alexis : i suppose the saving grace is that julian jerome is no longer with us . i did n't mean that the way it sounds . it 's terrible that sam and danny wo n't ever get to know him , but after everything i 've been through with all of sonny 's business ... derek : yeah , no , i understand . you , uh , want to protect your family . speaking as a publisher , are you sure about your , uh , facts ? alexis : we had a dna test . derek : how ? i mean , uh [ chuckles ] i ca n't imagine that would have been easy getting a dna sample from a dead mobster . alexis : no , we did n't need it from him . we got it from another family member . derek : what , uh , family member ? olivia : oh , my god . julian jerome is derek wells ? sonny : julian jerome got a whole new life . now he 's derek wells , media mogul , courtesy of wsb . olivia : bastard . this is the guy who pushed connie to write that article and backed her into a corner . and now he 's using this paper to push you ? sonny : yep . yeah . while sending his people to blow up my shipment and trash my warehouse . olivia : okay . so , now that you know who 's doing this , what are you gon na do about it ? nikolas : [ exhales sharply ] are you saying that this is patrick 's and your wedding anniversary ? robin : not exactly . patrick : we were at the altar . the priest had just gotten to the part about procreation of children . robin : my water broke right there in the church . [ sighs ] all of our friends and family were gathered for the wedding , but ... instead ... it was ... maxie : complete insanity . i will never forget that . [ chuckles ] patrick : it was crazy . all of us in a limo , mac stopping traffic so we could speed to the hospital . and i mean speed . anna was driving like she was at le mans . robin : my mother nearly killed us with her crazy driving . but anyway , we made it to the hospital , and even though there were complications ... patrick : robin was amazing . never gave up . and then ... i mean , just like that , emma was there . maxie : i remember that , too . it was so scary . patrick : it was , but we made it through . all the way to our second wedding , which went off without a hitch . maxie : it was better . without the baby bump . and the ceremony was beautiful . patrick : robin promised me that she would love me more than yesterday and less than tomorrow . robin : patrick promised to return the gift of love that i gave to him tenfold . he promised to love me and our daughter for as long as we both shall live . nikolas : mm - hmm . robin : we exchanged rings , and we kissed . [ exhales sharply ] it was the happiest day of my life . nikolas : hey . robin : and now he 's making plans to do exactly that with someone else . alexis : obviously we could n't get a sample from sam 's father because he 's dead , gone , buried . actually , i do n't even know where he 's buried . that 's a good question . i 'll have to ask sam if she wants to find that out . derek : okay , so this , um , other family member ... [ door opens ] carlos : so , this problem with the lease here . derek : uh , we 're in the middle of something . alexis : no , no , no , that 's okay . i have to go anyway . we have to go , because i have to drop him off at grandma monica 's , so ... um , i have to go to court . but it was nice to see you . derek : yeah , you and , uh , danny , of course . alexis : bye . delia : i do n't know jerome victor . sam : victor jerome . silas : victor jerome . delia : know him , neither . and i really do n't know what you 're talking about , so nothing 's ringing a bell . i 'm gon na go check on your burgers . silas : forgot your coffee pot . she would be the worst poker player ever . sam : yeah , she 's a bad liar . silas : so , why is that ? what 's -- what 's the reason for that ? i mean , clearly whatever it is she knows about victor jerome , it 's affecting her on a very personal level . sam : yes , i know , and unfortunately , it 's gon na be very hard to get her to talk . silas : what ? sam : yes . silas : what do you mean ? you -- you 're a professional , right ? how do we get this out of her ? ava : i have to go . i have a new gallery to open . morgan : ava . i just -- i want you to know , whatever side you 're on , i 'm on . i 'm with you now . ava : god help you . morgan : i ca n't wait to see the look on my dad 's face when he sees i chose your family , not his . sonny : what are my options ? am i supposed to just sit back while julian jerome destroys my business and then he comes after me ? olivia : he is a problem . sonny : well , usually when there 's a problem ... the problem needs to be eliminated . carlos : so , that 's your grandkid and your baby mama ? derek : yeah . well , i 'd prefer you refer to them as alexis and danny . but , uh , yeah . carlos : she still has no clue ? derek : not yet . although it seems my daughter , the , uh , p.i . , is close to finding out who i really am . delia : okay , so , here are your burgers . can i get you anything -- pickles ? relish ? mustard ? ketchup ? silas : no , i think -- i think we 're good . you know , unless you happen to remember anything about that woman we were talking about . sam : yeah . delia : no , i do n't . no can do . i do n't know what woman you 're talking about . sam : actually , we think you do , delia . you either know her ... or you are her . carlos : so , what are you gon na do when your daughter finds out who you are ? derek : we 'll , uh , cross that bridge when we get to it . something else ? is there a problem ? carlos : hmm ? oh . no problem . it 's just ... the woman i love is about to marry someone else . sabrina : am i interrupting something ? maxie : no . [ chuckles ] of course not . i - i understand that congratulations are in order . i was just telling patrick how happy i am for him . for you both . let me see your ring . it 's very elegant . i approve . patrick : yes , sabrina inspired me . maxie : oh , well , it 's getting kind of late , and i have a million things to do . my baby 's coming home today . sabrina : [ chuckles ] maxie : i 'll see you . patrick : bye . sabrina : wow . that 's so exciting . patrick : yeah , she has no idea how much her life is about to change . sabrina : patrick ... i want my life to change , too . i ca n't wait to be a part of emma 's and your family . i just want to dive in and make a thousand plans and decisions and marry you as soon as possible . robin : for two years , all i 've wanted to do is go home . i 've prayed for it and wished for it . it 's like one of those fairy tales , you know , where you have to get the wording perfect or the wish goes all wrong . nikolas : [ sighs ] robin : i mean ... [ sighs ] i 'm just so close to them , and i - i ca n't ... nikolas : i know . robin : ... get to them . nikolas : robin . robin : [ sighs ] nikolas : you will find that cure . and then you and patrick and emma will all be together soon . robin : i hope so . i hope it happens before patrick has a new wife . patrick : so , i take it you do n't want a long engagement ? what about felix ? he needs time for his wedding - vision board or whatever it 's called . sabrina : [ chuckles ] no , i just want to be married to you , patrick . i want our life together to start . you , me , and emma . is that what you want , too ? patrick : yes , it is . sabrina : [ chuckles ] patrick : yes . the sooner i 'm married to you , the better .

sabrina goes to see carlos to tell him about her engagement to patrick . he finds the timing suspect . he asks her why , if everything is so perfect with patrick , she keeps coming to see him when she could just as easily have called . patrick tells maxie that he and sabrina are engaged . they talk about when he and robin were at that stage . he tells her about the call he got that he thought was from robin . she says she is just as crazy because she saw georgie . she says it is odd that georgie came to her from beyond , but that robin never did . patrick tells her that his wedding to robin that was interrupted because robin 's water broke was exactly five years ago today . nikolas stops robin from escaping to find patrick . he reminds her that jerry will kill her parents if she leaves before synthesizing a cure for him . she says she ca n't sit around and wait for patrick to marry that horrible sabrina woman . she says obrecht told her that sabrina has been manipulating patrick . nik tells her to consider the source . he says sabrina is nice and that elizabeth believes sabrina truly loves patrick and emma . it does n't make robin feel any better to know that patrick did exactly what she told him to do in the dvd that she left for him because she is n't dead . she tells nikolas that today is the anniversary of her and patrick 's first attempt to have a wedding . she says she has done nothing but wish to be back with her family and now she is so close , but she might be too late .

[ scene_break ] scott : well , you got beat today . you got beat bad in court . question -- who cares ? you ca n't win 'em all . besides , i got something sweeter than victory . i got strawberries . i got champagne . all i need is the girl .

[ scene_break ] bobbie : you kicked franco out ? ! carly : i sure did -- on his cute little behind . bobbie : oh . well , does this mean the wedding 's off ? carly : no . of course not . bobbie : oh . then what 's going on ? carly : you do n't know ? bobbie : no , i do n't , and at this point , i 'm afraid to ask . carly : the bride and groom are not supposed to spend the night before the wedding together , mom . it 's tradition . bobbie : [ sighing ] oh . okay . so , since when did you and franco , of all people , become so traditional ? carly : i thought it 'd be a nice change of pace . i mean , everything 's already unconventional enough , considering i 'm marrying franco . bobbie : mm . i ca n't argue with that . carly : anyway , i thought it would be fun to have a girls ' night in -- you , me , and josslyn . bobbie : oh . oh , well , actually , josslyn went out . carly : she went out ? where did she go ? [ scene_break ] spencer : halt ! who goes ... there ? josslyn : trick or treat ! spencer : trick or treat ? what are you talking about ? halloween is not till tomorrow . josslyn : duh . i know . spencer : then what are you doing here ? josslyn : it 's beggar 's night ! and i 'm begging you to get me out of this wedding . [ scene_break ] carly : beggars ' night ? bobbie : yeah . yeah . it 's a tradition where the kids go out trick - or - treating the night before halloween . carly : yeah , yeah . i know what it is . i do . i just -- i do n't know . i do n't understand it . it 's not something we did in florida . i think the only place that celebrates beggars ' night is port charles . bobbie : hmm . well , actually , you should be very grateful that we do have that tradition here , because the only way that maxie and lucas were able to get josslyn to agree to participate in your wedding tomorrow was to take her out for candy tonight . carly : oh , gosh . well , she can have all the candy she wants , then . i am -- i am in favor of anything that will bump up her enthusiasm for the wedding . bobbie : well , actually , it 's not josslyn 's enthusiasm that i 'm worried about . [ scene_break ] sonny : shawn , glad to see you . you have a problem with heather ? what 's going on ? shawn : yeah , and it 's a big one .

[ scene_break ] carly : do n't start on me about my enthusiasm , mom , okay ? i do n't want to hear your doubts about my wedding . bobbie : hey , i did n't say anything ! carly : no , but you 're thinking it . i can tell you 're thinking it . and let me just say this loud and clear -- i am very enthusiastic about my marriage to franco , okay ? so i do n't want to hear another word about it . [ scene_break ] sonny : do n't tell me heather got away . shawn : no . no . not a chance . i 've got her locked up tight and safe at the warehouse . she 's actually been on her best behavior . i gave her a blt for a little insurance . sonny : then what is the problem ? 'cause it sounds like she 's a model prisoner . shawn : well , she has been , but the problem is heather is under the impression that franco is her warden . [ scene_break ] scott : i appreciate that you and carly are keeping with tradition . i like tradition . i 'm traditional . that being said , get out . franco : get out ? scott : get out . franco : i 'm your flesh and your blood and the fruit of your loins . scott : all right , all right . franco : you would toss me out on the street on the eve of my wedding ? scott : i would , and i have to . franco : okay , look -- i 'm already here . and , by the way , i hate to be the one to tell you this , but it 's just you and me tonight anyway . scott : what ? ! what have you done with bobbie ? franco : i did n't do anything to bobbie . carly 's the one who kidnapped her . who has a girls ' night in with their own mother ? scott : great ! she 's not coming ! franco : sorry . but on the bright side , we 're not gon na have any interruptions . scott : how is that the bright side ? franco : well , it 's the bright side for me . hey , look at it this way -- we 've got the whole evening together for some quality time . and -- let 's face it -- we would n't want all this to go to waste , would we ? [ scene_break ] diane : you should have seen baldwin 's face . he actually thought he had an open - and - shut case just because the widow fairbanks had an ironclad prenup and , well , granted , was found standing over her husband 's dead body with the murder weapon in her hand . but the district attorney needs to familiarize himself with two simple words , those being `` reasonable doubt . `` the jury took 10 minutes -- came back with a verdict of not guilty . [ laughs ] right -- right now , baldwin is just licking his wounds in a fluffy hotel robe . well , that 's an image , is n't it ? nathan : i 'm sorry . what ? diane : hello . nathan : what ? diane : you know ... i understand that , being a detective , you are forced to side with the district attorney , but scott baldwin did n't just buy you dinner . i did . so , please do me the courtesy of at least feigning some interest . nathan : i 'm sorry . that was n't -- that was n't what was bothering me , although your client was clearly guilty and now running free , thanks to you . diane : yes . well , i 'm sure you will nab her the next time she offs a husband . nathan : i was distracted because of maxie . [ scene_break ] spencer : i do n't know about this beggars ' night . maxie : trust us -- it 's a thing . spencer : i 'll just have to look it up before i authorize the handing out of any candy . lucas : all right , then . nikolas : hello . maxie : hey ! nikolas : maxie , lucas , josslyn . britt : josslyn , great costume . child of the corn ? josslyn : finally ! someone gets me ! nikolas : uh , why the trick - or - treating ? is n't halloween tomorrow night ? maxie : it is , but josslyn 's mother ... lucas : a.k.a . my sister carly is actually getting married tomorrow night , so we decided to indulge tonight on beggars ' night . nikolas : i 'm sorry . beggars ' what ? britt : never heard of it . lucas : fun fact -- it 's actually only celebrated in a few parts of the country . nikolas : sure you 're not making that up ? spencer : no , dad . it 's real . it says so right here . maxie : basically , you go out the night before halloween and beg for candy . nikolas : how is that any different than the actual halloween night ? maxie : it 's not , um , but who could say no to more candy ? britt : definitely not me . and i know spencer loves candy . what do you say , spence ? it 's not too late to get dressed up and go over to the mainland . feel like knocking on some doors and the pursuit of chocolate ? spencer : no offense , but it sounds like , to me , that beggars ' night is for townies . britt : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] cameron : and that is the story of beggars ' night . sam : [ chuckles ] well , who can argue with a tradition like that ? emma : does that mean we can get some candy ? patrick : hey . emma : please ? sam : you know , i have some candy . it 's in the drawer next to the refrigerator . go help yourself . patrick : uh , only one piece , though . you hear me ? emma : okay . sam : cute costume . patrick : oh , yeah . thank you . sam : i - i actually like the beard . patrick : mm . yeah . well , somebody beat me at pool and forced me to shave the real one , so i 'm stuck with this synthetic substitute . sam : well , i have never seen a beardless lumberjack before . patrick : yeah . well , neither has emma . she 's insisting i wear this thing two nights in a row . sam : wait a minute . you 've got to wear this getup again tomorrow night ? patrick : yes , but i 'm using it as distraction until we hear back from tracy . sam : oh . uh , tracy . actually , um , i just heard from her . patrick : lord larry ashton ? who the hell is that ? sam : ned 's father , tracy 's ex - husband . this is typical of jerry . yes , he promises to give tracy her husband , but he does n't specify which one . patrick : son of a bitch . i knew it . so , i mean , we 're right back where we started , are n't we ? we have no idea where luke is . we do n't know if he 's working with jerry or if he 's a prisoner of jerry , and we still do n't know if he caused the accident that killed my son . sam : i am so sorry . i know you wanted answers from luke . and i just -- i wish we were closer to finding them . [ scene_break ] jason : maybe that 's why i thought i recognized you . there 's a resemblance . michael : between me and my mom ? jason : yeah . michael : that 's funny . usually people say i look like my uncle . he , uh -- he died a couple years back , but people usually mistook him for my father . this is a pretty weird conversation . jason : [ laughing ] yes , it is . let 's start over , okay ? my name is jake . uh , no last name because i was hit by a car and it affected my memory . michael : traumatic brain injury ? jason : yeah . michael : the same thing happened to me . yeah . i was in a coma for almost a year . jason : no kidding . michael : no . it took a while , but i recovered , and i 'm sure you will , too . jason : yeah . well , here 's hoping . thanks .

[ scene_break ] sonny : franco is heather 's son . he 's almost as crazy as she is . she probably just assumed that he was gon na broker her release from ferncliff . shawn : no . no . sonny : what ? shawn : no . what i got from our conversation was that franco was actually planning to bust heather out . [ scene_break ] diane : speaking of maxie , she has left me a slew of messages , but i 've been too busy holding the widow fairbanks ' hand to actually return any of them . i do n't even know what she 's calling me about . nathan : i do . diane : oh , good . do tell . nathan : well , it all started the night of our first date . diane : i knew it . i knew it ! the moment i saw you two together in judge walters ' chambers , i told her right then and there , `` he 's a keeper . `` once again , i 'm right . it never gets old . so , tell me everything . spare nothing . you were on your first date , and ... ? nathan : and judge walters spotted us . diane : that 's not at all where i thought this story was going . nathan : walters comes over to our table and makes it perfectly clear that he will not allow maxie any visitation with her daughter at all if she continues to see me . diane : i beg -- he -- he what ? ! nathan : walters pretty much ended any chance of us having a relationship -- unless you can help . [ scene_break ] maxie : we understand if your cupboards are a little bare . lucas : yeah . after all , you guys are n't from here . maxie : yeah , so it would make sense if you 're not prepared . britt : hmm . nikolas : well , i 'm sure we can scrounge up something . britt : yeah . nikolas : what do you say we go to the candy pantry -- see what we can find ? britt : my favorite room . i 'd love to . spencer : wait , wait , wait . here 's the key . alfred left it lying around , because he 's old , and i picked it up for him for safekeeping . nikolas : well , i 'll be sure and give it back to alfred . spencer : there 's popcorn in the living room if you want . josslyn : i know my uncle lucas loves popcorn . do n't you , uncle lucas ? lucas : uh , y -- i - i do indeed . uh , would you like some popcorn , maxie ? maxie : yep . do n't mind if i do . lucas : all right . spencer : okay . what 's going on ? why do you need my help ? josslyn : okay . my mother 's getting married to her freak - show boyfriend tomorrow , and i do n't want any part of it . no way am i going back home . spencer : so , what are you doing to do ? josslyn : i hid you ... so now you 're gon na return the favor . you have to find a place to hide me . spencer : and why would i do that ? josslyn : because you owe me . spencer : i owe you ? for what ? you gave me away because your stupid crush on cameron , the paper - folding townie . josslyn : it 's not my fault that i 'm under his dreamy spell . spencer : and while we 're on the subject , what ever happened to our big plan to bust up cameron and emma ? josslyn : what about it ? spencer : um , it 's been months , and the two of them are closer than ever . [ scene_break ] patrick : what 's going on here ? i thought i only said one piece . sam : [ chuckles ] emma : we did just take one . cameron : one bag each . sam : they must have found the stash that i had for my trick - or - treaters . cameron : serves them right for waiting till halloween . sam : yep . emma : it 's like cameron says -- you snooze , you lose . patrick : oh , really ? well , why do n't you take one piece and put the rest back ? sam : oh , come on , patrick . they can have the whole bag . patrick : okay . fine . because sam said so , you can have the bag . and now that we 've cleaned her out , we should move on to the next house . sam : hey , you guys have fun . emma : come with us . sam : come with you ? but i do n't have a costume . emma : we 'll think of something . patrick : yeah . we 'll think of something . i mean , you do n't want me to be the only one to look ridiculous tonight , do you ? sam : i do n't know about that . patrick : well , alexis and molly have danny , so you do n't want to leave me alone with these two on beggars ' night . come on , sam . sam : okay ! i 'll go ! emma : yeah ! whoo - hoo ! cameron : sweet ! sam : [ laughs ] [ scene_break ] scott : i do n't know about you . i could use some real food . franco : i could eat . scott : of course , you could . well , this is your last big night as a bachelor , so let me order some room service -- a big steak or so , maybe a bottle of vodka ? franco : you do n't need to do that . scott : no . why not ? besides , carly owns the hotel . maybe i 'll get a discount . i know i 'm not the father that you imagined having . franco : it 's okay . i 'm pretty sure i 'm not the son that you imagined having . scott : well , you 're the only son i got left . tomorrow you , me , bobbie , and carly -- we 'll all be family , so i do n't know . maybe it 's the champagne talking , but i think we , uh -- we might be on to something here . i 'll go order the steaks . franco : beach , it 's franco . look , i do n't know why you 're not answering my phone calls . i need to know that heather 's safely stowed away . i need to know that nothing has gone wrong . [ scene_break ] sonny : what did heather tell you ? shawn : you know , it seems like she and franco had a plan to bust her out of ferncliff , but we just got to her first . sonny : what for ? shawn : i tried to get heather to tell me , but she would n't give up anything . you know , she figured if i was supposed to know , franco would have told me . she 's loyal . i give her that . sonny : why would franco want his psychotic mother on the loose ... right before his wedding day ? [ scene_break ] bobbie : it was very nice of lulu to accommodate franco 's request at the last minute . carly : all things considered , you 're right . bobbie : i should call her -- see if she needs anything -- help for tomorrow . carly : no , mom . i do n't think lulu 's coming to the wedding . i think she 's waiting to hear about luke . bobbie : luke ? what ? what 's she waiting to hear about luke ? carly : oh , my god . i thought you knew . i 'm so sorry . bobbie : you thought i knew what ? carly : according to lulu , it 's possible that jerry jacks is holding luke hostage . [ scene_break ] lucas : so , any news on the nathan front ? maxie : unfortunately , no . all it seems like i do anymore is avoid him . even when we accidentally wind up at the same place , like the gym , one of us has to leave . lucas : oh . i 'm sorry . that sucks . maxie : i miss him so much , lucas , and there 's nothing i can do about it . lucas : what about diane miller ? were n't you gon na reach out to her ? maxie : i did , and i have n't heard back from her . [ scene_break ] diane : and how may i be of service to ms. jones as she grapples with this gross miscarriage of justice ? nathan : so , maxie 's next visitation hearing is n't until the end of the year , and we do n't want to do anything to compromise that , so ... we have to stay away from each other . diane : this is a blatant misapplication of judicial authority . nathan : i agree , but i do n't think maxie and i have any choice . walters could have people watching us . diane : ha ! yet another perversion of authority , but i digress . so , as maxie 's attorney , what exactly does she want me to do ? nathan : first of all , is this even legal ? the judge is basically holding her daughter hostage . diane : it would appear so . nathan : maxie and i were only on our first date , but we 've been friends for a long time now . i miss her . diane : clearly . i will digress again and say how refreshing it is to meet a young man who so openly wears his heart on his sleeve . all of this `` i 'm too macho to show my feelings `` is a trite cliché and very insulting to the woman in question . it takes real courage to show one 's feelings . nathan : the last thing that i want to do is hurt maxie , and nothing would hurt her more than to keep her from her daughter . diane : hence your dilemma . nathan : can walters get away with keeping maxie and me apart ? or is there anything you can do to help us be together ? diane : yes , there is something i can do . nathan : please . anything . diane : walters has obviously lost all objectivity . he 's made this personal . so , i can file a complaint accusing him of bias . nathan : that sounds good . diane : while i 'm sure i can make a compelling argument , bias is very difficult to prove . there is a quid pro quo among the judiciary . when in doubt , they cover each other 's butts . nathan : so , what 's the downside ? diane : if i lose , which is rare but could happen , this might all backfire , and walters could dig his heels in even deeper and take out his frustration on maxie . nathan : i ca n't do it . i - i ca n't take the risk . i wo n't stand between maxie and her little girl . diane : i 'm so sorry , nathan . maxie has become , really , one of my clients . and even on such short acquaintance , i can see you 're very good for her . nathan : thank you . aside from the legal option ... is there anything else we could try ? diane : maybe there is . [ scene_break ] lucas : well , keep your head up . maxie : i 'll try . josslyn , are you ready to go ? josslyn : we still do n't have any candy . nikolas : someone want some candy ? britt : ta - da ! josslyn : why would you even ask ? maxie : oh , wow . you guys were not kidding about the candy pantry . britt : yeah . you never know when a situation calls for s 'm ores . right , spencer ? spencer : absolutely . nikolas : take all you want , joss . you , too . there 's obviously more than enough for everyone . lucas : wow . now i guess i understand why everybody loves beggars ' night . nikolas : right ? you lost one . josslyn : cameron and emma are still together . i still want to be with him , and you still want to be with her . but what are we supposed to do about it ? spencer : i do n't know , but we 're gon na have to figure it out before we see them again . [ doorbell ringing ] nikolas : who knows ? maybe it 's , uh , more beggars . ah ! [ scene_break ] jason : marriage is a big deal . i mean , i assume it is , yet i do n't know if i 'm married or not . michael : yeah . my mom has been married , uh , many times for many reasons . but i try not to judge . jason : clearly , you do n't like franco . michael : yeah ? what was your first clue ? jason : believe me , i 'm projecting . i do n't like him , either . michael : yeah . [ chuckles ] my mom 's doing this . i 'm not really sure why , but i made a decision to support her , and that 's what i 'm gon na do . jason : i 'm sure she 's grateful . you -- you can tell , when she talks about you , even when she says your name , it 's clear just how much you mean to her . michael : yeah . well , me and my mom have always been close . same with me and my dad ... the one i did n't know was my biological father . maybe that 's why it 's so important that i find his killer . [ scene_break ] shawn : look , i 'm coming up blank . i guess i 'm not crazy enough to suss out why franco would want heather back out on the streets . sonny : it 's good that we got to her first . last time heather was free , she kidnapped carly , terrorized her for weeks . we got to keep her under lock and key . shawn : i 'm on it . sonny : and it does n't change the arrangements . there 's no reason we ca n't take out franco before the wedding and pin it on heather . shawn : i do n't see any problems with moving forward as planned , although franco 's got to be wondering what the hell happened to heather . [ scene_break ] franco : call me as soon as you get this , beach . i need to know where heather is . scott : what was that all about ? [ scene_break ] bobbie : it 's all my fault . carly : your fault ? why would you say that ? bobbie : well , because jerry would never be on the loose if i had n't untied him when luke had him all trussed up at the metro court last year . carly : stop blaming yourself , okay ? you have to stop doing that . jerry played on your feelings , and he manipulated you . bobbie : you know what ? i 've got to call lulu and find out what the hell is going on . carly : [ sighs ] [ cell phone rings ] carly : what ? sonny : hello to you , too . carly : sonny , what do you want ? [ scene_break ] nathan : so , there 's a way that maxie and i could still see each other ? diane : courthouse gossip has it that judge walters is now dating monica quartermaine . perhaps she could intercede on your behalf . nathan : can you think of a reason why dr. quartermaine would want to help me and maxie ? diane : maxie once went out of her way to cover for michael , monica 's grandson . in fact , maxie 's deposition was the most dazzling piece of misdirection i have ever been witness to . nathan : so , monica might be grateful to maxie ? diane : quite possibly . then again , since the ultimate outcome was that michael did a stint in pentonville , possibly not . [ scene_break ] maxie : looks like we all had the same idea about beggars ' night . patrick : great minds . nikolas : wait a minute . you 're not from here , either . how 'd you know about this little tradition ? sam : oh , i learned about it tonight , so i thought i 'd get into the spirit . maxie : not as much as this guy . you make a great lumberjack . patrick : thank you . lucas : well , yeah , and the kids are supercute . so , what 's up with you ? why are n't you all decked out ? patrick : oh , no . no . she is . lucas : oh . maxie : what are you supposed to be ? sam : what do you think ? i 'm a tree . maxie : oh , wow ! oh , that 's cute . spencer : well , well , well . i should have known that the townie would be out begging for candy on beggars ' night . cameron : oh , i do n't have to beg to get what i want . i just have to smile . that 's how i get candy ... and how i stole your girlfriend . spencer : i do n't know what you 're talking about . i 've got a new girlfriend . josslyn finally came around when she realized how much we have in common . emma : you do ? josslyn : yes , emma , we do . turns out spencer and i want the same things out of life . spencer : we 've been having a lot of fun together . as a matter of fact , we 've got a wedding to do go . emma : you 're getting married ? josslyn : [ chuckles ] no . spencer : we 're going to someone else 's wedding . but one day we will get married in a very elaborate ceremony . but you 'll get to watch it on tv . patrick : okay , you two . let 's go . we got two bags of candy and a whole half- pantryful , so time to get going . spencer : aw , so soon ? pity you could n't stay longer . emma : i still have questions for spencer . patrick : well , then , you 're in luck , 'cause we get to do this whole thing again tomorrow , okay ? come on . spencer : bye ! thank you for coming by ! cameron : why is josslyn wasting her time with that jerk ? josslyn : what the heck ? ! spencer : we need a plan , and now we have one . josslyn : the more important thing is to get me out of this wedding , not invite yourself to it ! spencer : do you want to break up my lady and your tramp ? josslyn : i 'm listening . spencer : okay . so , i remembered that once two kids pretending to be a couple to get this other couple jealous , and i thought we could try it , too . josslyn : did it work when they did it ? spencer : well ... the girl -- she left town , and the guy -- he died . josslyn : so ... maybe this plan is n't such a good idea . spencer : are you kidding ? us combine our scheming ? we could make it work . maxie : come on , josslyn . it 's time to go . are you ready ? spencer : bye , josslyn . see you at the wedding .

[ scene_break ] carly : i ca n't talk right now , sonny . i 've got to get to bed . i need my beauty sleep . sonny : this early ? carly : yeah . i 'm gon na get married tomorrow . sonny : i 'm aware of that ... carly : great . sonny : ... just like you 're aware of how i feel about it . carly : okay , sonny . can we please not get into it , please ? sonny : i know . i get it . you made it clear . your mind 's made up . carly : yes , it is . sonny : i just want you to know ... that i love you .

[ scene_break ] maxie : does what dillon knows have something to do with your secret ? nathan : how could i possibly know that ? maxie : dante , thank god . please make nathan tell me his secret . we 're a couple , and we 're supposed to tell each other things , and it 's not fair he wo n't tell me . dante : you know , maxie , you 're the last person who should be complaining about people keeping secrets . you spent nine months pretending to be pregnant with lulu 's and my child . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , ric , how soon before we get avery back where she belongs ? ric : um ... listen , sonny , i want you to know that i 'm gon na do everything that i can to help you get your daughter back . sonny : that 's why we do n't waste any time . we got married a few days ago . carly : and sonny 's kids are willing to testify -- dante , michael , morgan , and kristina . ric : yeah , well , that 's helpful , but , um ... we do have another problem . sonny : what 's that , ric ? ric : well , you are currently in the hospital , recovering from injuries sustained at the hands of a business rival . sonny : i 'm getting better every day . ric : i 'm -- i 'm glad to hear that , but we got to face facts here , sonny . we have a grueling custody case in front of us . i think you need to evaluate your obstacles and ... decide whether you 're strong enough to face them . [ scene_break ] ava : now , how is sonny making me look bad ? and please , do n't you dare tell me he 's accusing me of being a criminal . i mean , he 's been the godfather of this town for decades . i mean , half the crime here could be attributed to him . scott : one time he goes to prison , he commits an act of heroism , and he gets a full pardon . he 's like a celebrity gangster now , so never underestimate his popularity and how he can sway public opinion . he 's also got a bunch of kids lining up for the christmas card photo and singing his praise , not to mention he married carly . so now they can offer avery something you ca n't -- a two- parent home . ava : oh , c -- oh , come on . i 've never bought into that claptrap of the disadvantages of a single - parent household . half the households out there only have one parent . look , i raised kiki alone , and look how beautifully she turned out . scott : well , she wants nothing to do with you . ava : well , i admit that ... kiki 's a little upset with me right now . but that does n't destroy the bond that we have . more importantly , she loves her little sister . and i know that , deep down , kiki knows that avery belongs with me . scott : how deep ? do you think the love for you will surface before the custody hearing ? ava : no , i 'm -- i 'm sure that kiki would be willing to testify on my behalf . scott : well , good , because the custody hearing is right around the corner , so you need to lock kiki down as a character witness . do it . [ scene_break ] kiki : hi . morgan : hi . kiki : come on in . morgan : i , uh ... i got your text . just want to tell you , you do n't have to be sorry . kiki : yeah , uh , i do . i was a real jerk the other night at the haunted star . morgan : well , i think you 're allowed . kiki : do you want something to eat ? nina got really excited when her brother and maxie came over the other day , and she wanted to play hostess , so i made way too many hors d'oeuvres . we have a ton left over . morgan : yeah , that sounds -- that sounds great . um ... why do n't you pour me one of those , and i 'll fix us a plate . kiki : i can do it . morgan : no , it 's all right . i know where everything 's at .

while planning the halloween party at the haunted star , maxie knows that dillon insists there is a `` secret `` about dante that nobody knows except for him which might drastically change things and possibly end dante 's a lulu 's happy marriage . nathan realizes that he knows what that secret is but does not believe it 's his secret to tell maxie and wants her to drop it . she does not do that however . valerie tells dillon that even though he wants to expose dante and get lulu to end their marriage so that dillon can have lulu , she reminds him that revealing that secret will harm her as well as dante . at that point , dillon agrees to keep his mouth shut for her . they agree to answer maxie 's question that the `` secret `` is that the two of them are getting back together and realizing valerie has no future with dante nor dillon with lulu . yet maxie does not buy that explanation . lulu is presently angry and ready to end her friendship with dillon given his `` cockiness `` that he can take her from dante when she presently has no desire to do so . jake and elizabeth are ready to get married but he still has reservations about having a future with her . both sonny and ava are ready for their custody battle for baby avery . ric represents sonny but warns him that he has some major strikes against him in custody court . scott baldwin is ready to represent ava but warns her of the same thing . he also believe that she is at his desperate mercy since he `` saved her `` from getting charged with murder . little does he know , little does she reveal to him that although he has no clue what happened to the flash - drive recording of her murder confession , she knows that paul hornsby has it in his possession and is now `` pulling her strings `` with it . kiki is still in a very negative life condition and not about to forgive much less help her mom in the custody hearing . when nobody suspects or realizes , spinelli sits alone in the floating rib on his computer and reveals he is ready to make a breakthrough and unravel the mystery of whom jake doe really is .

many people are getting ready for halloween although the spirits are not the same as previous years , given the tragic death of morgan and many other things going on in port charles . carly wants to bury herself in work at the metro court although her mom urges her to go home and get some rest . nelle is acting very helpful and supportive to both sonny and carly and neither of them suspect anything about her . however , when bobbie is alone with nelle , she expresses her suspicions about how nelle is making herself `` indispensable `` to bobbie 's daughter and how it 's too convenient that nelle seems to know everything about carly 's life . when sonny is alone in the house and depressed , he envisions himself having a `` do - over `` with morgan where he encourages his son not to give up and promises to be there for him , as he failed to do before it was too late . he `` sees `` morgan feeling ok and not discouraged and they bond on a positive note . yet , oddly , when he is awakened to the `` here and now `` , he hears the doorbell ring , goes to open the door and sees morgan at the door . we can not tell , right now , if his son is really alive or if it 's only an illusion . alexis is also struggling while stuck at home with nothing to do , when sam and danny come to see her . they encourage her to join laura at the party she is hosting at wyndemere to celebrate being able to sell the property after her son has died . kevin comes to join laura and she 's happy to see him . lulu and dante join them . they assume kevin is still wearing his halloween mask when `` someone `` enters through the door , says nothing and does not remove the mask to reveal who he really is . while nathan is baffled about being unable to find out when , where , or how claudette boarded the airplane flight to return to canada , nor any information of the whereabouts of valentin cassadine , maxie wants her fiancé to take a break and not worry about it . dante is also not concerned and assuming that valentin is far away , locked up and assures his partner they need not worry . at wyndemere , laura finds out she will not be able to sell the property , as she 'd previously been assured by everyone . she demands to know why and finds out the property does not belong to nikolas nor to spencer . she asks whom it does belong to , and at that point , the guy with the mask removes it to reveal that he is valentin cassadine .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you have no idea what i 've been through , what my life has been . olivia : i read the papers . sonny : that 's not me . police rap sheets , newspaper reports , they do n't describe who i am . olivia : you look me in the eye , and you tell me you 're not still a power junkie . sonny : well , i have my limits . like i said before , i have no intention of marrying claudia . kate : you see , olivia ? you got all fired up for nothing . sonny : he 's gone . kate : okay . sonny : how 're you doing ? kate : okay . sonny : come on . olivia : connie , you 're kidding yourself . you 're doing it all over again , connie . you 're believing his lies , just like you believed him when he told you that he was out of the mob . kate : leave it . olivia : i do n't care what promises he makes to you . i do n't care what words he says . if marrying claudia is going to get him his power back , honey , that 's what he is going to do . and you need to have the decency to tell her the truth and stop stringing her along . kate : you know , olivia , i am starting to think that the reason you 're all fired up about this is because you want sonny , after all . [ scene_break ] claudia : daddy . claudia : your pulse is all over the place . i used to pray for this when i was a little girl , that something like this would happen to you for all the horrible things you 've done . maybe this is god answering my prayers . johnny : what happened ? claudia : he was yelling at me and then he collapsed . what are you doing ? johnny : i 'm calling for help . claudia : no . john , think about it . think about how much better our lives would be without that old bastard in it . johnny : what are you talking about ? he 's our father . i do n't care what he 's done . claudia : please , johnny . let the old man die . [ scene_break ] robin : uncle mac , calm down . everything 's fine . mac : jason still ca n't stay for the wedding . maxie : that 's probably something we should have discussed before . mac : look at him . he 's not even dressed for a wedding . you know better than to show up here , jason . robin : okay , can i just have a moment alone with him , please ? elizabeth : i 'm going to get the bride 's room ready . maxie : yeah , the bride 's in charge on her wedding day . that 's tradition , so -- robin : so , what changed your mind about coming to the wedding ? jason : well , maxie made me think twice about why i should accept your invitation . robin : good . i just have another thing to thank her for . jason : so , i am going to leave it up to you . robin : well , if it 's up to me , then i want you here .

[ scene_break ] robin : hi . elizabeth : hey . maxie : okay . so , everything is under control . robin : i know . maxie : no , seriously . all i have to do is wait for the caterers to show up , make sure the cake gets here in one piece , and that the limo does n't break down . elizabeth : but , other than that , everything is under control . robin : i trust you completely , maxie . maxie : of course you do . oh , damn -- the priest . i did n't mean damn . not in a church . robin : it 's okay . it 's technically the bride 's room . i do n't think you 're going to hell . elizabeth : okay . so , up or down ? robin : i do n't care , as long as you keep doing this . maxie : i know you meant whatever looks best with your dress . robin : i really do n't care either way . maxie : are you losing it ? robin : maxie , come on . do it with me -- deep breath . [ both exhale ] robin : hey , thank you for talking to jason . it means a lot to me that he 's here . maxie : well , i thought it was kind of selfish of him not to show up on your special day . and do n't worry about patrick . robin : oh , i 'm -- maxie : spinelli will make sure he gets here in one piece . elizabeth : now you can worry . robin : you know , patrick and i have done enough worrying for two lifetimes , but the second i agreed to marry him , i have n't had a second thought . elizabeth : reverse hormones . maxie : okay , i 'm going to go make four quick phone calls , and then i 'm going to go home and change , but i 'll make it back here in time to do your makeup . everything will be great . you will see . robin : i am sure . wait -- wait -- hold on -- hold on . i have to tell you something . i love you , very much . maxie : oh , god . [ laughing ] robin : bye . elizabeth : okay , now you can relax . all i have to do is your hair , and you can be as worried as you want in front of me . robin : you know what ? i keep waiting to get nervous , but i 'm not . you know , i keep waiting for this wave of panic to hit me , to tell me that i 'm doing something wrong , but all i feel is very content and like i ca n't wait to marry patrick . [ scene_break ] matt : look , if you 're asking me to your wedding out of some sense of obligation , do n't bother . the fact that noah blew me off my entire life does n't mean that you owe me squat . patrick : hey , noah was m.i.a . for most of my childhood , also -- emotionally speaking . so , honestly , i do n't know what 's worse -- the fact that you did n't know him or that he was there for me but felt like a stranger . leyla : dr. drake ? patrick : yes ? leyla : nurse johnson sent me to tell you that she 's gone to get ready for your wedding and so should you . patrick : yes , yes . tell her i 'm right behind her . leyla : okay . patrick : thank you . matt : see , this is why weddings are such a bad idea . they bring out the worst in everyone . patrick : okay , matt , bottom line . we 're brothers . now , we can build on that or not , but i 'm making you an offer , and i really hope you accept . [ scene_break ] maxie : this is a disaster . you 're not in your tux . i 'm not in my dress . we need to get out of here so we can get back here . so that we 're not no - shows at robin 's wedding , because i planned it . mac : come here . come here a second . maxie : dad , if this is about jason -- mac : sit down . it 's not about jason , all right . i 'm obviously powerless over that insanity . no , i 'm just -- i 'm just sitting here wondering where the time goes . you know , the first time i saw robin was at kelly 's ? she was this adorable , in - your - face little girl who absolutely knew her own mind and would n't take `` no `` for an answer . maxie : so , she has n't changed much . [ both laugh ] mac : you know , i hate to admit it , but back then i was a bit of a trouble maker . and one day i thought my brother and his wife had been killed , and suddenly i found myself responsible for raising their child . and you were n't far behind . i blinked , married your mom , and got you and georgie in the bargain . and what a bargain it was . maxie : sometimes it does n't seem fair . it 's almost like you got stuck with us . you know , raising us , putting up with us , and you did n't even ask for it . mac : well , if it ever bothered me , i do n't remember -- especially on a day like today . wow , robin 's getting married . soon she 'll have a baby . it could n't be more perfect . maxie : what do you think you would have done if you had n't fallen in love with my mom ? mac : hmm , hmm . i do n't know . who knows , you know ? when you 're young , you 're all about your career . you define yourself by what you do , and not who you are . in those days , it was all about going off on some adventure to save the world , and then i became police commissioner and it was about busting the bad guys . but the most important -- most important thing i ever did in my whole life was raise you three girls . the rest is gravy . maxie : well , i think you did a really great job with robin and georgie . mac : i think i did a really great job with you , too . i love you , maxie . so much . you know , you , robin , and georgie are my true success . i miss your sister . i wish she could be here with us . maxie : she is , dad . [ scene_break ] olivia : connie was completely out of line there . sonny : okay , olivia , kate is in no condition to hear any stories about me marrying claudia . you -- do me a favor -- let it go . olivia : she 's in condition to make snide comments and get all up in my face with this crap about me being jealous . that -- it 's completely no basis in reality , okay ? okay , the smartest day of my life was the day that i dumped you on the corner of 19th and sullivan and walked out of your life . sonny : well , you did n't really walk out of my life . did you ? because you just broke into my damn house , and you obviously feel something or else you would n't be getting in my face . [ scene_break ] leyla : patrick . patrick : i know , i know . i 'm almost done . leyla : okay , you do realize that everybody who is going to your wedding has actually left the hospital . patrick : i do , okay . look -- officially signed out . the next time i sign in , i 'm a married man . leyla : good . oh , patrick ? patrick : yeah ? leyla : i just want you to know that i wish you and robin every happiness . i really mean it . patrick : i know you do . thank you for that . okay ? so , that 's it . leyla : go . go , go , go . doctor : patient suffered a grand mal , an aneurysm that 's slowly leaking . patrick : well , i 'm off duty . i ca n't -- leyla : dr. drake has a prior engagement . johnny : i will pay you anything to save my father . [ scene_break ] olivia : i am completely impervious to you , sonny . i look at you . i feel exactly nothing . sonny : yeah , really ? then why are you so angry ? olivia : because i ca n't stand what you 're doing to my cousin . okay , i got to stand here like a dummy and watch her swallow your lies whole . it 's making me feel sick -- sonny : i 'm not lying . olivia : you 're lying so good you do n't even know you 're doing it . sonny : why do you keep saying i 'm lying , when i 'm not lying ? olivia : okay , i -- i give you that . you believe your own lies . you got yourself convinced that you would n't touch this claudia zacchara with a ten foot pole , which is a very good instinct by the way , but it 's a massive case of self - deception . sonny : you know what ? this is just -- it seems so familiar -- you going off on a rant because you do n't want to see me anymore , you do n't want me to call . and then if i do n't call you or see you , then you get pissed off . because you were never really good at saying what you really mean . olivia : no , you were never really good at hearing what i was saying . just -- you just do whatever the hell you want . like the time you cut school to take me to a yankees game , when you stole the money for the tickets -- sonny : no , i did n't steal -- hey , i did n't steal the money for -- i did n't steal . enzo owed me money . olivia : or making a deal with this zacchara guy that makes you the king of the mob , only you got to marry his crazy daughter first . sonny : i 'm not about to discuss business with you . olivia : you do n't have to discuss squat with me , sonny , because i know what i know -- and i know you . and i know that you 'll do anything to get power , even if you got to break your own heart . [ scene_break ] robin : thank you so much for doing my hair . if maxie would have done it , i think she would have left me bald or burned my hair or something . [ laughing ] elizabeth : well , after everything you 've been through , it is my pleasure to add a small contribution to your big day . robin : i do n't know what i was so afraid of . i mean , everything just feels right . elizabeth : you know , with all the disappointments i have had in my life , it 's really hard for me not to be cynical , and i want to believe that love is possible . and when i see you like this , i know it is . robin : hey , come here . sit down for a second . please ? i just want you to know that i 'm really glad that we 're friends . your friendship means a lot to me , and you 're such a generous person , and , well -- i have a little confession to make . [ laughing ] robin : i did n't invite jason to the wedding just for me . i wanted him to be able to look at you through the ceremony and maybe get some ideas . elizabeth : i do n't really know how to feel about that . robin : well , let me put it this way . you 're a good friend . i care about jason a lot , and it would make me so happy if the two of you were to end up together . so , since today is all about me elizabeth : mm - hmm . robin : you 're just going to have to indulge me on this one . elizabeth : i 'll try .

[ scene_break ] robin : do you think your dad 's nervous at all ? [ chuckles ] robin : maybe just a little bit , right ? you know this is going to be a huge adjustment for him , so you and i are going to have to be very , very patient . robin : do you know how crazy in love i am with your dad ? i mean , it was just silly of me to ever hesitate marrying him because ever since the moment i said `` i will `` everything has been perfect . [ laughs ] robin : well , i 'm glad that you agree . i feel so blessed to be having you -- and so grateful . i 'm so lucky to have found a man like your dad that loves me the way that he does . but you know , well , your dad was something of a ladies man . so , he may not take to domestic life so easily . but do n't you worry . it 's going to be an adventure for all of us . [ scene_break ] olivia : you do what you got to do , sonny . okay ? all i 'm asking is that you be honest with my cousin . sonny : well , you 're not asking . you hardly ever did . that was one of your problems . olivia : that 's not an answer . sonny : you want an answer ? olivia : yeah . sonny : i 'll give you an answer . my son was shot . he 's in a coma . kate was shot right in front of me . i will avenge kate 's shooting . and in order for me to do that , i have to get back in the mob . end of conversation . olivia : this is so typical . this is so typical you . yeah , you make up your mind about something , and then you do n't care how much it hurts you , or how much pain it causes people around you . sonny : you just figured it out . i 'm just a heartless bastard , right ? olivia : sonny , sonny . i do n't think you 're some crazy sociopath who enjoys killing people . okay ? but you accept murder as a necessary evil . am i wrong ? tell me i 'm wrong . sonny : the door 's right there . olivia : too close to the truth ? sonny : no , no , not really . you want to know the truth ? i kill bad people . karpov is a bad man . and he will pay for shooting kate . i need that inside of me . olivia : see , this is only half about revenge , sonny . what you really want is your power back . you want to be back in the mob . you want your mob life back . do n't worry about it . all you got to do is marry claudia zacchara to get it .

[ scene_break ] dominic : i had no idea you and sonny had such a history . robin : oh , yeah . years and years of it . come to think of it , you kind of remind me of him when he was younger . dominic : hmm . how so ? robin : well , he used to be a lot more jokey and would smile a lot more . these days , he 's a little bit more guarded . dominic : um , yeah . i guess i could probably use a little restraint myself . excuse me . the hosting duties are calling . robin : fine . maxie : i 'm going to make this quick , because i have to get back to the office . but what exactly are your intentions with lulu ? lulu : uh , you do n't -- [ dominic chuckles ] lulu : have to answer that . dominic : well , i could try , but you 're awfully hard to ignore .

[ jason sighs ] sam : personally , i want claudia to rot in hell , just like you . you have already lost so much , jason . michael could turn on you . sonny could turn on you . he may not be in love with her , but he certainly likes being married to her . killing her would be the ultimate act of defiance . you could wind up losing everything that matters to you .

[ scene_break ] alexis : so , this is the price of co - parenting -- showing up at a party of a woman that you loathe . but you do it for the sake of your child . jax : well , you could have called and sent your regrets . alexis : no , because kristina really , really wanted to be here , and i really , really did n't want her to . so i 'm making an appearance instead . jax : just taking one for the team , right ? alexis : that 's what we do . and i 'm so glad i have my empathetic friend here who hates being here as much as i do . certainly not fun and games for you , is it ? jax : ca n't wait for this to be over . alexis : i have this sense -- i do n't know . maybe it 's just my normal paranoia of being in a public place with sonny -- but i get this feeling that something really , really bad is going to happen .

[ alexis sighs ] mayor floyd : you know , i never gave you a proper apology for the trouble that my late wife caused you . i 'm sorry . alexis : thank you , garrett . i 'm sorry , too , because i think we both came up with a bunch of false accusations about each other . so how about we just call a truce and let bygones be bygones ? mayor floyd : actually , i 'd like you back -- as district attorney , that is . alexis : oh . oh ! well , that 's very flattering , garrett , but i 'm going to have to say no , because i love private practice . it gives me more time with my girls , a flexible schedule . but thanks anyway .

abby : i did n't love high school either . i made some really stupid choices that , uh , closed a lot of doors for me , and that pissed me off , made me feel sorry for myself , so i made some more bad choices . michael : like stripping ? abby : no . stripping is actually a positive . michael : oh . so you like it ? abby : i like that it pays for me to go to school . i woke up one morning hurting everywhere , you know , inside , outside , and i looked in the mirror , and i realized that 's not the life i wanted . i had to change , you know , everything , and ... michael : when you woke up hurting , did somebody do that to you ? abby : yeah , somebody did . michael : i 'm sorry . i mean , i know what that 's -- sorry . abby : i got way off track with this . i did n't intend to tell you my life story . i just wanted you to see that you 've got options . i mean , it does n't have to be college , but you are such a great guy , michael . i 'd hate to see you get stuck in the terrible thing that happened to you . i mean , do n't let it paralyze you , michael . michael : you barely know me . why do you care so much ? abby : i do n't know . i just do .

personal like sitting in a chapel with someone , talking about your grief , exposing your inner - most fears ? ! is it personal like that , johnny ? because you told me that i did n't have to be strong with you . you made me feel like i was n't alone . and without you and michael , i do n't think i could have made it . are you saying that that all was a lie ? johnny : no , i 'm not saying that . starr : then you must be lying now . connie : ca n't a mother check on her long - lost son ? trey : i was never lost . you threw me away like a piece of garbage . connie : we got off to a rocky start . okay . but i think we can find some good to come out of it . trey : like what ?

and i know you did that already . i was glad to hear it , that you stood up for me . and you told sonny where to stick it when he tried to serve you those fake papers to commit me , right ? and it gave me a lot of hope , trey , for mother and son . trey : that 's touching . connie : think so ? trey : yeah . except it 's a load of bull . you 're only here because you think i might change my mind . and if i do , well , then you end up in the nuthouse , do n't you ? connie : well , are n't you kid columbo ? guilty as charged . todd : in this bag is all the stuff from heather 's desk , minus the staplers and the hole punchers , which belong to the company . did you know your mom was kind of a hoarder ? steven : i ca n't imagine she 'd have anything valuable lying around at work . todd : well , let 's take a peek . olivia : swedish fish . todd : i prefer chocolate . olivia : troll doll . todd : do n't even ask . olivia : kelly 's rewards card . todd : yeah , good for one blt . olivia : oh , god . `` 50 hues of blue . `` steven : it 's trash . i 'll toss it . todd : oh , no . come on . shame on you . what -- what ? you 're gon na break out the matches next and start burning material you think is inappropriate ? olivia : he 's right . it is bad karma . steven : fine . i 'll donate to a library . todd : i do n't think a library wants that smut . steven : so , why do n't you keep it ? todd : well , because i have a restless mind , man . i ca n't manage anything over 200 pages . i mean , how long is it ? olivia : what is that ? sam : todd manning is as guilty of keeping danny from me as that lunatic heather webber . carly : the charges were dropped . todd said he had nothing to do with the switch . sam : and you believe him ? carly : yes , i do . sam : [ scoffs ] just take your word for it , then , huh ? carly : yeah , you can take my word for it . i know when someone 's lying to me . sam : even when that someone 's your boyfriend ? johnny : i am not lying to you . i love connie . starr : and that trumps all of your other relationships ? carly and me ? johnny : your friendship means the world to me . starr : if that were true , then you would n't have trashed it . johnny : it 's not like you have to hang out with her . starr : that 's what you think i 'm worried about ? running into connie someplace ? you 're helping a murderer walk the street . she is free to hurt and kill whenever she feels like it . johnny : she 's not gon na do that again . starr : how do you know ? johnny : because i do . starr : give me a reason . johnny : i want to make this right between us , and i will do anything . name it . starr : get connie committed . you 're connie 's husband . you have the legal right to put her in shadybrook . johnny : it 's not that simple . starr : get kate the help she needs , johnny . that 's how you can make this right . connie : you got some steel in your spine telling sonny boy to shove it . and you got that from me , by the way . you 're welcome . trey : i 've been praying i did n't get anything from you . connie : hey - ey , man ! i 'm giving you a compliment ! you know , you got guts ! sonny knew exactly what he was doing when he came over here . you 're all sad and vulnerable . trey : yeah , kind of like you right now , right ? connie : no , but you 're smart , trey . you 're smarter than he is because you would never let him rattle your cage or do anything , bully you , nothing to change your mind , right ? trey : it depends . connie : on what ? trey : when i was born and left for dead , was that you , or was that kate ? michael : i would do anything for you , too , dad . which is ... why i 've been thinking a lot about the next move . sonny : whose next move ? michael : the organization 's . sonny : yeah , you leave that up to me . michael : dad , bernie was shot with two different guns . trey said that joe told him he was working with someone else , like -- like a boss or ... he was definitely answering to him . sonny : yeah ? michael : we got to find this guy . we -- we got to hit back right away . that 's what jason would have done . sonny : jason 's not here , michael . michael : exactly . we 're vulnerable right now , and everybody knows it . look , we got to -- we got to close ranks . we got to protect our family . sonny : and you want in on this ?

because he 's such a good guy ? he 's a stand - up citizen ? what ? carly : no , because i 've seen him interact with his daughter , sam . he knows what it means to be a parent . and if he thought your son was being kept from you , he 'd make it right . todd : that 's probably just a bookmark . i 'll throw it out . olivia : mary , mother of god . this is ... this is a paternity test for sam morgan 's baby . and it ... it says that franco is n't the father . jason is . a.j . : i do n't know how to thank you . nothing seems like it 's enough . monica : you were the one who fought your way back . a.j . : yeah , mom . you were the one who kept me out of prison . monica : do you remember what happened ?

monica : i 'm saying that ... everybody is under the impression that you are gone right now , and ... i 'm the only one that knows you 're alive , so ... so if we want to keep it that way , then you 're just going to have to stay dead . a.j . : mom , you put your career on the line for me . monica : i was n't the only one . steven : but ... but we called it . monica : well , too early , apparently . steven : how the hell did ... monica : it does n't matter . what matters is that he 's alive , and now i 'm asking you as a boss , as a family friend , and as a mother to help me keep him that way , please . monica : i could n't have snuck you out or faked the autopsy without steve webber . a.j . : well , i guess we 're lucky steve agreed . monica : he really had no choice . he blamed himself for not saving your life . a.j . : so , this -- this really worked ? i mean , no one has -- no one has a clue that i 'm alive ? monica : not a soul . michael : you do n't think i can do it . sonny : you 've hurt too much already , michael . you know what the best thing in my life is ? becoming -- becoming your father . but it was selfish . michael : no , it was n't . sonny : yes , it was . michael : a.j . and the quartermaines wanted to take me away from my mother . i would have hated growing up in that house . sonny : i - i -- the life that i gave you was a lot more dangerous than anything they could have cooked up . michael : i 'm still here , dad . sonny : no thanks to me . michael : somebody needs to have your back . sonny : you know what i see when i look at you ? i see the life that i wished that -- that -- that i had . college , education , girls , parties ... a - a real life . do you understand what i 'm saying ? michael : i thought you liked what you do . sonny : i - i - i -- the only thing that i know is my power and retaliation ! that 's it ! i want more for you ! michael : what if i do n't ? sonny : mike , mike , mike . listen to me , okay ? you remind me of jason . when he first came to me , he was a little younger than you are . he wanted a job . i said , `` you do n't want to get involved in this , because once you get in , you ca n't get out . `` but that 's what he wanted . michael : but you gave him a choice . that -- that 's -- that 's all i want . sonny : jason would have done anything for me . he probably ... probably died protecting my -- l my territory . but you know the one thing that he wanted in -- in life , only one thing in return ? a good life for you . that 's what ... that 's what i want , buddy , okay ? you can do anything you want in life . you can become anything you want . michael : except your number two , right ? sonny : all i want for you is to have a happy , safe , good life ... one that your mother and jason and i can be proud of . it 's all you got to do . just ... just live . connie : you sure you want to poke around in my head , trey ? you might not like what you find . trey : who left me to die ? was it you , or was it kate ? connie : it was kate . trey : [ scoffs ] why am i not surprised you said that ? connie : my hand to god , trey . all right ? she was raped , to her defense . she was pregnant and alone and completely freaked out . trey : oh , yeah , and all this makes it all okay , does n't it ? connie : no , it does n't make it okay , all right ? but she -- she was a baby herself ! how was she gon na take care of another baby ? not to mention a screaming kid does n't fit in with her makeover plans . she was ambitious . she had a scholarship to princeton . she was ready to go . she had goals . a screaming child was excess baggage . trey , look at me . she left you . she did n't turn back . i 'm sorry . trey : i - i just , i do n't get it . connie : what ? trey : i do n't get it . if this was n't your call , then why the hell did you say all those nasty things ? connie : what are you talking about ? what nasty things ? trey : that you wanted me dead , then and now . connie : i know . did this happen at sonny 's house a couple days before the wedding ? it was kate . that was kate , trey . i did n't say that . trey : come on . sure sounded an awful lot like you . connie : oh , yeah . do you know she gets all bensonhurst when she gets pissed off ? i would never say that to you , trey . this is why i hate d.i.d . , because i get blamed for everything ! trey : oh , yeah , like killing cole and hope . connie : yes ! exactly ! trey : so , wait a minute . so , you -- you did n't kill them . johnny : i ca n't commit connie . starr : you can , but you wo n't , right ? just like trey . johnny : starr , please do n't leave like this . what about tonight ? starr : find a replacement . johnny : your career ? starr : i quit . johnny : i thought singing meant everything to you . starr : it did . because it helped me move on , because you told me to use it to express how i felt . but with the way i feel right now , johnny , if i open my mouth to sing , something ugly would come out . johnny : starr , wait . please . sam : i do n't -- i do n't suppose asking you to call before you show up would do any good . carly : [ chuckles ] well , that never worked for jason , did it ? look , i came here for jason and for you . but i came here for me , too . [ voice breaking ] i just ... see him everywhere , and i have all these memories flashing and ... gosh . it 's hard . i have this , um ... [ sniffles ] ... voicemail from jason . he just left it , you know , and it was short and sweet , and -- and he just says , `` hey , carly . it 's me calling you back . `` and i think i 've listened to it a million times . sam : oh , man . i would -- i would give just about anything to get a voicemail from jason right now . carly : take it . sam : no . no , i ca n't . carly : yeah , you can . it 's yours . please , take it . [ sighs ] sam : yeah ? carly : yeah . sam : thank you . carly : it just seems so unfair . i mean , that all we have are memories and voicemails . it just seems like there should be more . olivia : this is not a hallucination . but how did -- how did heather get a dna test for sam 's baby ? todd : do n't look at me . i just -- i - i - i just cleared off her desk . olivia : maybe the other one , the franco one , was the fake and maybe jason is the father of that baby and heather was trying to hide it . todd : `` i 'll fix your wagon ! `` olivia : what ? todd : `` i 'll fix your wagon . `` that 's what heather used to say . `` i 'll fix your wagon , sam . `` i mean , i thought she was talking about the appalachian trail , but maybe -- maybe there was more to it . olivia : what do you think ? what ? does it look legit ? steven : the other one looked legit , too . olivia : but it 's possible , right ? it 's possible , maybe . maybe jason is the father of sam 's baby . steven : [ sighs ] there 's only one way to find out . johnny : here . starr : what 's that ? johnny : it 's the master of the cd we made . i was gon na give it to you as a surprise . hey , give it a listen . it 's awesome . and having said that , if you still want to walk away , i understand . you 're a talented young woman , and ... the last thing i want to do is hold you back . starr : thank you . johnny : i never meant to hurt you . starr : too many times i 've heard that . as if it 's some kind of an excuse or a justification or somehow lessens the pain . you may not have meant to hurt me , johnny , but you did . connie : i 'm just saying that what happened to those kids is a tragedy . if i could undo it , i would . but i ca n't . so that 's it . trey : nah . i do n't buy it . i do n't believe a word that 's coming out of your mouth . you 're not sorry . you 're not sorry for any of it , killing that man and his -- his little girl , leaving me for dead . connie : i told you that was kate . trey : look , you may think i 'm an easy target because it took me 25 years to figure my dad out . but i had you figured out in 10 minutes . connie : now , you hold on right now and get your facts straight , trey . trey : fact -- you are a lying , scheming psychopath . connie : you do not want me as an enemy . trey : you better lawyer up , then . you 're gon na need it . sonny : i need you to promise that you 're gon na drop this idea of working with me . michael : [ sighs ] i wo n't push it if it 's that important to you . sonny : thank you . michael : [ sighs ] i 'm just worried , dad . sonny : i know you are , but you got to remember , i was doing this long before i met jason . i 'll figure out a way to make it work . michael : okay . sonny : okay . now , i know you just went to see monica , but maybe it 's a good idea if you go check on them . michael : yeah , she was worried about how edward would take the news . sonny : well , they need you a lot more right now than i do . i mean , i do n't know mean that -- do n't take that wrong .

[ monitor beeping ] todd : sucks to be you , heather . not just 'cause you 're lying here like a rutabaga , but because you 're missing all the fun . sam is about to find out jason was the father of the child . and the best part is , it ca n't be traced back to me . and the even bester part is , you ca n't do anything to stop me . [ knock on door ] sam : steve . what are you doing here ? monica : a.j . , is much too dangerous for you to stay here . if anyone should find out you 're alive -- michael : monica ? you in here ?

[ scene_break ] sonny : why you so hostile , commissioner ? coming into my house throwing around groundless accusations . anna : i know . it 's part of the job . although in this case , it feels almost like a perk . sonny : is it your job to badger innocent citizens ? anna : [ scoffs ] sonny : huh ? anna : you know what i admire most about you ? your ability to lie with a straight face . you must be really good at poker . sonny : actually , i 'm very good at poker . but i only play in my legitimate casino . anna : of course . sonny : so , about these unfounded accusations , i want to know who 's slandering me . [ scene_break ] jordan : ava 's got a target on her back , and she figured if she ended up in the hospital or the police station , she 'd be a sitting duck . anna : for whom ? jordan : sonny corinthos . if he finds her , he 's gon na execute her . [ scene_break ] sonny : i have a right to face my accuser . anna : actually , you do n't . and for all intents and purposes , i will keep this source confidential for now . sonny : so , this source that you claim you have , did they tell you why i want ava dead ? anna : julian jerome 's sister . sonny : uh - huh . anna : he 's your biggest rival , is n't he , for mob control in port charles . sonny : oh , i do n't know about mob control . i do n't know about rivals . i just know that she 's pregnant with my child and , you know , it 's my flesh and blood . anna : oh , god . you honestly expect me to believe that ? sonny : well ... anna : the whole town knows you ca n't stand her . and for all you know , your son could have fathered that baby . i mean , that 's gon na make thanksgiving awkward . sonny : [ laughs ] we 'll manage . anna : you know , this is purely out of my own curiosity , but have you ever assembled all your children and their various mothers in one place at one time ? sonny : does this have any bearing on the investigation ? anna : well , yeah . you pride yourself on being such a good father and treating your children 's respective mothers with honor . and somehow i just do n't think that 's gon na apply to ava . i mean , she 's fine right now . you 're gon na let her live as long as she 's pregnant . but if i let you have your way , you 'll kill her as soon as the umbilical cord is cut . [ scene_break ] ava : we know that sonny wants me dead . we know the moment this baby is born , he 's planning to kill me . silas : he has to find you first . ava : if morgan 's right about seeing a car out there , maybe he already has found me . silas : then why have n't we come under a full - blown assault ? ava : okay , so ... then you do n't think it 's sonny ? silas : i do n't know what to think . i got to hand it to you , kid . you got no shortage of enemies . [ scene_break ] madeline : darling , you 're right . silas and ava have behaved very badly , but killing them is going too far . nina : too far ? they 're screwing , mother . what would you do ? i mean , what would you have done if you found out that daddy was cheating on you ? madeline : let 's leave your father out of this . look , i think there 's a very logical explanation why silas was there last night . ava 's pregnant . nina : no kidding . madeline : she was having cramps . she was given a drug that was going to induce early labor . i 'm sure that silas was just there to ensure the health of the baby . nina : [ sighs ] all right . oh , mommy . right . oh , my goodness . you 're right . you 're right . how silly of me . i should have known that . [ sighs ] i ca n't go over there and commit murder . i ca n't do that . it 's unlike me . no . um ... i have to keep my eye on the prize -- that baby . and ... i know exactly how i 'm gon na get it . [ scene_break ] morgan : there 's no way we can leave you now , not if my dad or nina or whoever knows that you 're staying here . kiki : but if we do n't go , then carly and franco will start to wonder , and it could end up drawing attention back here . morgan : so ? so i 'll call my mom , i 'll tell her i regained my sanity , and i ca n't show up if she 's marrying that freak . silas : that would explain your absence but not kiki 's . ava : silas is right , honey . you should go . kiki : no , mom , i do n't want to leave you . ava : oh , sweetheart . that means so much to me , but i 'll be fine . look , morgan and silas are here . they can handle anybody who comes through that door , believe me . kiki : i do n't feel comfortable . i 'm not leaving you . ava : kiki , you should go . you told franco you 'd be there , right ? you 're his only friend . if you do n't show up , we both know how franco gets when he does n't get his way . [ scene_break ] franco : how do you know it was n't heather who hit you ? beach : i 'm positive . i left her in the visiting room , and i was on my way back when it happened . franco : maybe it was one of the other inmates . beach : no , they 're all accounted for . she had to have help from the outside . franco : well , okay . so they must have left a clue , right ? some kind of -- some kind of a trail . what about the -- the -- the visitors log ? beach : i already checked . whoever helped heather left no trace . they knew what they were doing . franco : who the hell else would want to take heather ? [ scene_break ] shawn : jordan , come on . you 're better than this , all right ? chasing after me in this way when i already told you -- jordan : oh , please . check your ego . i 'm here because of tj . shawn : yeah . jordan : yeah , he told me that he knew that we were together . i thought that we had an understanding not to involve him . shawn : look , what does it matter ? we 're through . jordan : okay , what matters is his misconception of what 's going on and you not doing anything to set him straight . shawn : and what misconception is that ? jordan : that i 'm the reason that we 're not together ? that you ca n't abide by my drug - dealing self ? come on . shawn : yeah , i 'm , uh , i 'm still waiting on the misconception . jordan : damn it . you know what , shawn ? this is n't fair . tj is my son . you ca n't even do anything to help me out ? shawn : you want to fix things with tj , stop dealing . jordan : i am sick and tired of having this conversation . i 'm sick and tired of being branded the bad guy when i 'm anything but ! shawn , what about you ? we both know that you do n't deserve tj 's hero worship . you 've done far worse than me . or have you forgotten what you did to tj 's father ? shawn : not a day goes by i do n't think about tj 's father , and i sure as hell do n't need you to remind me . jordan : i bet you think you 're in the clear , do n't you ? i bet you think if i put enough time and distance between what i did and -- and what happened that you know what ? it does n't even matter . but you know what ? i 'll bet you tj would disagree . i 've kept you off the hook for a very long time , and i can always put you back on . shawn : you know , you 've been dangling that over my head ever since you hit town . go ahead . knock yourself out , lady . huh ? go ahead . drop your big , bad secret . as a matter of fact , why do n't i do it for you ? jordan : excuse me ? shawn : you 're so eager to , you know , let the truth come out . maybe you 're right . tj 's a grown man , you know . maybe he deserves to know what happened , everything , you know , have a chance to make his own judgment about what really went down and exactly who is to blame . [ scene_break ] franco : now 's not a good time for me to go looking for heather . beach : you have to . we ca n't let her wander about . she 's insane . franco : yeah , well , maybe you should have thought of that before you let her escape . beach : me ? franco : yeah , you . beach : i was attacked ! franco : look , i have a wedding to get ready for . i ca n't ... [ sighs ] you go back to ferncliff , okay , and you make sure that nobody knows that she 's gone . beach : it 's already handled . i have her scheduled for one - on - one therapy with me . franco : great . beach : but there 's a limit , mr. franco . i can only keep up this ruse for so long before someone suspects . you have to locate her , finish your business , and get her back to ferncliff before security discovers she 's gone and traces her disappearance to me . franco : that is not gon na happen , okay ? heather is vital to my plans . and [ scoffs ] look , without heather , everything i 've got set for carly just goes up in smoke . [ scene_break ] michael : mom , is there anything else you remember from the night aj died that may point to ava ? sonny : how 's michael ? carly : how do you think ? aj died . but not before he woke up long enough to tell me that you 're the one who shot him . carly : i - i just remember aj saying how much he loved you , and then it was over . michael : yeah , you -- you told me that before . i was just hoping there was something , anything , that could help me make sense of all this . carly : i know how hard you tried to support aj , but , baby , there was nothing you could do to save him . michael : no , i could have -- i could have worked harder to keep him sober and tried to get through to him . carly : nobody can stop an alcoholic from drinking , okay ? he has to do it himself . michael , aj struggled with that disease long before you were born . nothing you did or did n't do made him drink , okay ? it was his choice . michael : yeah , but he was so alone . he -- he was so defeated . carly : i know . he was a troubled man , okay ? and we both know the history there , and we do n't have to go over it right now . but you just need to know that you were the best thing that ever happened to aj , and he was so proud of you . we all are , you know ? you are a good , kind , strong , decent man . you truly are . michael : you always make me out to be better than i actually am . carly : no . nobody better . nobody better than you . i used to always say that jason , sonny , and i , we poured everything that was good in us into you , you know , so , i do n't know , so the bad things we did were n't so bad . you kind of balanced the scale for us . michael : if you 're saying i got the best of you , dad , and jason , i 'd say i 'm -- i 'd say i 'm pretty lucky . carly : no , i 'd say we 're the lucky ones . and look , you 're gon na be in my wedding . [ chuckles ] i know how hard that is for you . you know , i do . i know ... i know what you 're rising above . and i just want you to know that , uh , franco is really grateful that you 're gon na be his best man . michael : yeah , well , i 'm not doing this for franco , okay ? i 'm doing this for you . i just want you to be happy . 'cause i know that 's all you ever wanted for me . carly : yeah . [ scene_break ] sonny : if you had anything , i 'd be in the back of your cruiser with mateo . anna : okay , yeah . so just look on this as more of a professional courtesy visit , a warning . just in case you were to engage with ava , i would respond with due force . sonny : how can i engage with ava if i do n't know where she is ? she took off . anna : i know . i 'm looking into that . sonny : oh , okay . anna : because i - i need to speak to her myself for other reasons . sonny : can you share that with me ? anna : did michael not tell you ? oh , i ... of course not . you have such a volatile relationship with your sons . sonny : thank you . thank you for that . uh , you were gon na say something about ava . anna : michael has a very interesting theory . that somehow ava is culpable in aj quartermaine 's death . [ scene_break ] silas : ava , it 's not safe . we do n't know who 's watching . ava : oh , thank you . silas : you 're welcome . morgan : silas , it 's -- it 's really not safe anywhere in this house , so i - i think we need to relocate her . silas : okay . we try sneaking her out and run the risk of her being seen . morgan : so , what -- what do we do ? we just sit here ? silas : detective west and the cops , they 're out looking for nina , all right ? maybe they found her already . maybe we 're worried about nothing . [ scene_break ] madeline : what is that , nina ? nina : this is oxytocin . oh . it puts pregnant women into labor . it works a lot faster and is a lot stronger than those other drugs . but i 'm preaching to the choir , are n't i , mommy ? you know all about that . liquid drugs as opposed to tablets . you figure that out when you injected me with liquid anti - depressants and killed my baby . madeline : nina , there 's no point in bringing up -- nina : but i 'm going to inject this into ava . and it will put her right into labor . she 'll deliver that beautiful baby ... into my loving arms . [ scene_break ] jordan : you would n't tell tj . shawn : [ chuckles ] oh , you 're not so big about the truth coming out now , are you ? what are you so afraid of , hmm ? that if it comes out , you 'll fall even lower in tj 's opinion than you already have ? that it cuts you off completely ? you have a very good reason to be afraid , because if tj learns what we know , you 're gon na go down in flames right along with me . [ scene_break ] kiki : i did n't mean to interrupt . do you have a minute ? franco : for you ? always . kiki : who was that ? franco : uh , just a guy . he 's helping me out with some last - minute details for the honeymoon . um , what 's going on ? you look great . you 're all dressed up . kiki : yeah . i 'm going to a wedding . and so are you , so why are n't you dressed up ? franco : i got a suit and some shoes . i just -- i got to hop in the shower and got to pull myself together . kiki : okay , well , i wo n't take up any more of your time . i just wanted to give you a little something . franco : you did n't have to do that . kiki : i wanted to . franco : oh . i really ... really do n't know what to say . kiki : well , the initial thing was a little tricky at first , given your lack of a last name , so i just got , um , `` f `` for franco and `` c `` for carly . franco : `` c `` for carly . i really do n't deserve this . kiki : yes , you do . you deserve it . you 've been a great friend to me . and i am so proud of you . you have proven this whole town wrong . you 're a good person , and carly is very lucky to have you . so do n't let your little paranoia get in the way of it , okay ? you guys are gon na have a bright future together . carly would not be marrying you unless she was fully committed and totally in love . i 'm pulling for you today . good luck . [ scene_break ] carly : i really am grateful for your support today . um ... i know you do n't like franco . you may never like franco . michael : yeah , well , they ca n't all be dad . carly : how 's your father ? michael : uh , last night was kind of rough . carly : yeah . jason . yeah . the anniversary . yeah . michael : yeah . i ran into him paying his respects . carly : at your grandmother 's ? michael : yeah , i was -- i was thinking about aj , and -- and he was there for jason . we had a good talk . carly : good . did you tell him this theory you have about ava ? michael : yeah , i did . he -- he was cool . he already has people looking for ava , and he said he 'd let me know if they -- if they find her . carly : i know you want answers . i just , um ... i - i - i ca n't help thinking that this is a mistake , you know ? michael : what do you mean ? carly : pursuing ava , going on about aj 's murder -- i just ... i think you should let it go . [ scene_break ] silas : well , thank you , detective . i - i appreciate it . keep me posted . morgan : what -- what 's going on ? ava : have the police found nina ? silas : not yet . she 's still out there . [ scene_break ] madeline : okay , we got our tools . when do we start ? nina : as soon as possible . um , you need to drive by that brownstone place and make sure that , uh , ava 's posse is n't still there . we ca n't get her if she 's not alone . [ scene_break ] silas : so we ca n't rule out nina as a threat . morgan : can you stay here with ava ? silas : yeah . why ? where you going ? morgan : well , we may not be able to do anything about nina right now , but i can sure as hell do something about my father . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , are you gon na tell me you 're gon na -- you 're gon na reopen a case that you 've closed since you 've been running this department ? is n't that gon na tarnish your record ? anna : there i go again putting public interest ahead of my own . sonny : well , at least now we know why ava skipped town , 'cause she heard you were after her . anna : or you 're gunning for her . sonny : okay , can we just agree to disagree ? anna : oh , that 's not how this works . this is n't about us not seeing eye to eye . this is about my job , which is enforcing the law , and i wo n't hesitate to enforce it on you . sonny : okay , i do n't mean any disrespect here . anna : okay . sonny : but i 've heard that a lot , and i 'm sure i 'm gon na hear it a lot more . so , if there 's nothing else ... anna : just step lightly , mr. corinthos , or the next time i come back here , i will be carrying a warrant for your arrest . sonny : always a pleasure , commissioner . anna : right .

[ scene_break ] ava : what if it was sonny out there ? what if he 's coming for me right now ? silas : hey . i promise you , nothing 's gon na happen to you or that baby . i wo n't let it . ava : [ sighs ] silas , he could have a dozen men out on that street and we would n't even know . silas : hey . you 're not listening , all right ? i 'm not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] michael : no , there -- there are way too many questions about what really happened to aj . i have to make sure the truth comes out for his sake . carly : what about monica ? yeah , or the rest of the quartermaines ? they buried aj , and -- and they grieved him , and they 're satisfied that his killer is behind bars . do you really want to reopen those wounds ? michael : my grandmother would want to know the truth even if it hurts . carly : you know , i 'll never know where you got your stubbornness -- from me , your dad , or did you learn it all from jason ? michael : well , let 's just say that when it comes to seeing something through , you all were great teachers . carly : yeah . it 's okay to walk away , you know ? it is okay to let a thing lie . michael : mom , i made a vow that whoever was responsible for killing aj will see justice . and i will not rest until that happens .

[ sighs ] jason : i wish it was n't so confusing for him . elizabeth : actually , i 've been kind of thinking about that lately , and i just want to preface this by saying there 's no pressure . okay , i mean , yeah , there 's seriously no pressure . but while aiden has lucky as his dad , the other boys ' fathers are gone , so i was thinking that maybe after we get married , you 'd think about adopting jake and cameron as your own ?

ava is alone at her art gallery and on her phone , leaving a messages to kiki begging her to reconsider and testify for her mom to get custody of baby avery . yet she goes no response . right then , tracy enters and tells ava she can give her some business by purchasing an expensive piece of art tracy has been looking for . ava sounds encouraged until tracy makes it very clear to ava that she is not `` in support `` her winning custody of her baby . although tracy does not like sonny , she 'd vote for him over a murderer who faked her own death , falsified herself as someone who does not exist and slept with her daughter 's boyfriend . right then , paul enters and tracy leaves . they see she 's gotten a text reply from kiki stating that there 's no way she is going to help her mother and has washed her hands of ava . ava breaks down crying , making herself vulnerable , pulling on paul 's `` heart - strings `` ( maybe more accurately giving him more ammo against sonny ) , and they end up kissing and are clearly going to have sex .

[ scene_break ] carly : ohh ! claudia : sonny was gon na have my brother killed . there was no doubt about it . he basically left me no choice . i had to act first . carly : oh , god , does that justify shooting my son ? claudia : sonny would have done the same thing to me . but i was just ... i was just trying to protect my brother . i mean , he 's all the family i have . sonny kidnapped johnny , locked him up in a padded cell , had his guys beat the crap out of him . then he told johnny he was gon na kill him . and then he was gon na kill me . i just did what i had to do to protect us . carly : yeah , you just hired ian devlin and jerry jacks to take out sonny . that 's great , claudia . claudia : sonny would have done the exact same thing , carly , and you know it . you were married to the guy . but i had no idea that michael was gon na be there in that warehouse . i had no way of knowing that ian was crazy enough to take a shot with a child ... there . but i felt ... guilty , so incredibly guilty about what happened to your son for so long . but i was n't the only one to blame . sonny 's done the same exact thing hundreds of times , and you know it . and if he 'd left me any other choice , if he 'd left me any other way out , i would have taken it tonight . i would have . but he did n't . and once again , he basically left me no other choice .

[ door closes ] a.j . : [ breathes deeply ] i - i ca n't believe that was michael ... my son . sonny : i do n't really care about your motives . all that matters to me is that you 're gon na help me get connie committed . did you get the papers from alexis ? trey : they 're back at my apartment . sonny : all you got to do is sign them and then get them back to her . trey : got that . i will . sonny : yeah . trey : under one condition . lulu : you do n't even have to tell me what it is . just say yes or no -- is connie blackmailing you ? okay , fine , just blink once for `` yes , `` twice for `` no . `` i can tell that you want to tell me . johnny : there 's nothing to tell . lulu : whatever it is , i want to help . you can trust me . i 'm not a cop . johnny : your husband is . lulu : but like i said , i 'm not . you can trust me . what does connie have on you ? connie : hey , johnny , why do n't you invest in some two - ply ? that toilet paper 's rough . lulu : charming , did you say ? trey : just tell me the truth . did you send jason to kill my father after what he did to kristina ? sonny : no . trey : and why should i believe you ? sonny : i swear to you , on my children 's lives , that i did not send jason or anyone else to harm your father . i wanted to , even before he tried to kill kristina . because of what he did to kate , i wanted him dead . but i had nothing to do with it . trey : so what stopped you ? sonny : your mother . even after what joe did to kate ... she demanded -- demanded -- that i spare his life . trey : we 'll be in touch . kristina : has trey said anything to you ... about helping kate ? starr : oh , i do n't know . trey thinks that sonny killed his dad , so ... kristina : he did n't . starr : yeah , maybe not , but trey does n't want to believe that the last thing his father told him was a lie . kristina : yeah , i know . i tried to comfort him , but ... i mean , given the fact that his father tried to kill me , i really ca n't get too broken up by the fact that he 's gone . maybe i 'm just not the right person to console trey right now . starr : yeah , i do n't blame you . kristina : but still , i mean ... i can totally understand loving your father even though he 's done unforgivable things . i mean , my dad has hurt so many people , including me . never on purpose , but ... i do n't know . sometimes , you know , it 's just impulsive . he gets angry , and then he just reacts . then other times , it ... it 's deliberate . part of his business and ... those are the times that scare me the most . starr : looks like we have more in common than just spicy food . heather : why would i tell the police that you had nothing to do with switching those babies ? what 's in it for me ? todd : nothing . there 's no quid pro quo here . i 'll give you back your book . you can read it in prison -- federal prison . heather : why would you assume that ? you got off . i can get off . who 's your lawyer ? todd : tea delgado . heather : yes , i 'm so sure she still represents you since you were implicated in this baby s -- todd : okay , you 're right . todd : tea delgado . heather : yes , i 'm so sure she still represents you since you were implicated in this baby s -- todd : okay , you 're right . i had to hire another attorney . heather : what 's her name ? todd : diane miller . she 's the woman i fired so that i could give you a job . she does not like you . heather : so ? you gave me her job . she still represented you . todd : yeah , because i 'm loaded . i gave her a bunch of money . heather : well , why do n't you gather some more piles of your money and buy me a good attorney ? and once i 'm acquitted , i will go to the police , and i will tell them that you did not swap those babies . todd : once again , for the thinking - impaired , there is no getting you out of this . heather : i could plead insanity . everybody 's so ready to believe that . todd : well , of course , you did take an infant and leap off of a building . i think the best - case scenario for you does involve padded cells and buckled sleeves and electrodes . heather : i 'm not going back to ferncliff . todd : or the federal pen for the rest of your life . [ door opens ] heather : steven lars . steve : you 're awake . heather : is n't it amazing ? i 'm so glad you 're here . i need to tell you something very important . i know who switched those babies . sam : look at this , danny . look -- right there . [ giggles ] this is a very important piece of paper . it says that you are jason 's son . yes , right there ! your daddy is really your daddy ! oh , jason is gon na be so happy when he finds out .

[ breathes deeply ] heather : steve , i do n't know what you 're talking about . that man 's a doctor here . steve : no , he 's not . heather : of course he is . he helped deliver my baby . steve : he did ? heather : where is he -- my baby ? i want to see him . steve : i 'll check . doctor , can i speak with you for a second ? todd : uh , yes , but as one doctor to another , i have to -- steve : what are you and my mother trying to pull this time ? johnny : relax ! lulu and i are planning a party , and you 're getting in the way . connie : you lying to me ? johnny : yeah . yeah , i 'm lying to you . this -- this whole thing is a smokescreen -- this whole party ! -- so lulu and i can get rid of you ! you paranoid much ? connie : yeah , i 'm paranoid much , johnny . sonny 's recruiting this little crack kid to throw me in the psycho ward , okay ? so he can get his stupid little kate back . johnny : did it ever occur to you why everybody hates you so damn much ? huh ? connie : why do n't you tell me ? johnny : all you got to do is be a little bit nicer than kate is -- just a little bit -- which , let 's be honest , it ca n't be too difficult because , on her best day , kate has got the warmth and personality of a potted plant in an ice machine ! connie : hey , no argument here . johnny : but instead of capitalizing on that , instead of using kate 's flaws to make yourself look better , well , you flat - out threaten , blackmail , and piss off everybody you meet ! it 's no wonder everybody wants you locked up . connie : hey , speaking of that , we have to get rid of this kid . johnny : what do you mean `` get rid of `` ? connie : is n't that what you do , you know ? i do n't know , what you do best ? you stage a fake accident , you know ? the brakes go out on a car . johnny : this is your son you 're talking about ! your son ! connie : oh ! oh , okay , mr . morality over here . hello . where was this righteousness when you drove that man and his kid off a cliff and made me take the rap for it ? ! trey : whoa . what 's going on here ? starr : oh , nothing . we were just bonding over some thai food . i saved you a spring roll in the fridge . trey : really ? starr : no , i saved it for myself , but i know you 're gon na eat it anyway , so ... i 'm just pretending . trey : thanks . hey . kristina : hey . i wanted to come see how you were doing . trey : i ran into your father . kristina : you did n't do anything crazy , did you ? trey : well , not unless committing connie is crazy . sonny : there 's nothing wrong with a.j . , okay ? i mean , he was smart , he was athletic -- he could have been and done anything he wanted to do . the flaw ... was in his character , not his dna . it has nothing to do with you . you have shown more courage and strength than a.j . ever did his whole life . michael : no , i get it . i get it . i just -- i did n't want to say anything bad about him to monica after i upset her earlier . sonny : it 's her son . she 's gon na make excuses . i mean , that 's normal , right ? michael : the thing is , i -- i barely even knew the guy , and what i do remember was pretty bad . sonny : that 's accurate . michael : i -- i -- i think about him sometimes , i mean , i wonder if things would have been different if he was n't killed . would we even have a relationship ? a.j . : i want my son to know what he means to me . monica : you are my one surviving child . i 'm not gon na have you come back here to spend your life in prison , which is exactly what 's going to happen . a.j . : mom , you do n't know that that 's what 's gon na happen . monica : you shot your father in the back . that 's attempted murder . a.j . : mom , you know , i never gave a statement . you know , listen to me -- i could say that the gun went off and that it was an accident . monica : alan made a statement , and emily made a statement . that 's on record . a.j . : mom , they 're both dead . monica : which means they can not change their stories to cover for you . a.j . : all i 'm saying is , mom , it 's been so long . there 's got to be a way that we can make this go away . monica : you know , what about me , a.j . ? what about me ? i 'm the one who faked your death , who got you out of the country , who funneled money to you for years . i could be arrested for aiding and abetting . a.j . : mom , i would never let that happen . i can protect you . i tell everybody that i made all the arrangements . monica : it does n't make any difference . it has n't changed , a.j . you have to leave . a.j . : no ! no , i 'm not leaving you again , and i 'm not leaving my son . i want my life back , and i want my family back . monica : well , if you do find michael , you 're going to be very disappointed because he 's devoted to jason . a.j . : mom , jason is gone . i 'm still here , okay ? michael is gon na get to know me . and i 'm gon na have the relationship with him that i 've always been meant to have . monica : even if that relationship is through prison bars ? sam : [ chuckles ] i think this may be the happiest moment of my entire life . jason : mine too . sam : just having you here , knowing that danny is yours , this is everything i ever wanted . when i think about everything that we went through because we thought that franco was the father , all because heather needed to get back at me for not delivering a stupid letter ... jason : hey , hey , come here , come here . sam : [ breathes deeply ] jason : i want you to forget about heather , okay ? sam : okay . jason : because right now , all that matters is you ... and me ... and this little guy right here . todd : i walked by , i heard a noise , i went inside , and your mother was -- she said she was susan . steve : susan moore . todd : yeah , that 's who she said she was when tea hired her . hey , look -- maybe your mom actually thinks she is this susan person . i hate to tell you , dr. webber , but your mom might have snapped . steve : you think so ? todd : how 'd it go with sam ? you give her the dna test ? steve : yeah , i did . and now she knows the truth , and she knows that jason 's the father of the baby and not franco , and i 'm hoping that maybe that 'll give her some peace . todd : yeah , me too . she 's suffered enough . steve : no thanks to you . todd : me ? what did i do ? i gave her a job . steve : you know what ? do n't think you 're off the hook . because we all know either you helped my mother switch the babies or she helped you . todd : i just wish your mother were lucid so she could exonerate me . steve : my mother 's very clever . and this whole susan bit ? the psychiatric team will evaluate her thoroughly , and we 'll see if she 's snapped . jason : sounds like he wants his mom . sam : oh , i think he just wants his binky . do n't you ? mommy and daddy are still trying to figure out how to take care of you . jason , can you hand me his ... jason ? todd : hey . you got a sec ? heather : not now . i 'm trying to concentrate . there 's a breakthrough moment coming . i can just feel it . todd : okay . i just ... i wanted to say thank you , susan . heather : thank you , doctor . todd : all right . i 'll see you around . heather : a word to the wise , mr. manning . you better keep me happy , or you and the police will be hearing from heather webber very soon . sam : jason ? ! [ shuddered breathing ] jason ? [ sniffles ] oh . he was never really here . where did he go ? johnny : you need to chill the hell out . connie : do n't i look chilled out ? johnny : oh , yeah , not when you 're threatening to kill your kid . connie : oh , shut up ! i was making a suggestion . johnny : suggest it one more time , i 'm throwing your ass in shadybrook . connie : yeah ? johnny : yeah . connie : well , you better start working harder at convincing people we 're a happy couple , or i 'm gon na tell everyone the truth about you . johnny : do you need to keep reminding me of what i did to starr and her family , huh ? i see it every time i look at you ! connie : good . just as long as you remember we 're in this together . mi problemos es su problemos . comprendes ? johnny : oh , yeah . me comprendes . connie : good , johnny . 'cause we got to figure out what we 're gon na do about that kid trey , 'cause if he signs those commitment papers , we 're screwed . starr : thank you , trey . you 're doing the right thing . trey : we 'll see . sonny : got some good news . michael : good . i can really use some . sonny : trey showed up , and he changed his mind about committing kate . michael : how did that happen ? sonny : i 'll get you some pizza . we 'll talk about it . michael : that sounds good . a.j . : with enough time and the right influence , you know that we could clear my name . monica : how ? a.j . : i do n't know , but you know what i do know ? i 'm a.j . quartermaine . this is my home , my family , and that is my son ! and i will do whatever i have to do -- whatever -- to get back everything that i 've lost .

[ airplane passes ] dante : you see a plane ? yeah . anyway , i wanted you to know that it might get a little uglier . okay ? but i do n't want you to worry , because it 's just 'cause everyone loves you so much . all right ? olivia : hey . oh , hi , baby . and you . look at you . she gets more gorgeous every time i see her . dante : i know . olivia : [ chuckles ] dante : so what did you , uh -- what did you want to see me about ? olivia : it 's about your father . sonny : [ sighs ] shawn : i arranged for our next shipment to come early . we should have all of our inventory replaced within a few days . sonny . sonny : yeah ? shawn : is that what i think it is ? did lazaro come through with the intel ? sonny : we got proof . julian jerome is alive and well . and goes by the name of derek wells . ava : i 'm still not sure this is a good idea . derek : well , do you have a better one ? because from where i sit , we do n't have much of a choice now that your , uh , boy toy knows everything about us . ava : he is n't -- enough with the `` boy toy `` ! okay ? i just do n't like the idea of morgan getting mixed up in all of this . derek : well , to be honest with you , he 's the same age i was when i got pulled into this life . ava : and look how well that turned out . derek : look , morgan wants to help us strike down his father . now the kid has to prove it . the only way to do that is to hit corinthos where he lives . michael : morgan , hey . what are you doing here ? ellie : we should probably get this back in the freezer . maxie can have a celebratory sundae when she gets back with the baby . spinelli : oh , the baby . ellie : i see all is in readiness . i 'm assuming maxie went to get your daughter . spinelli : i 'm afraid not . the court order was denied . ellie : what ? why was it denied ? spinelli : [ sighs ] dante and lulu have decided to sue maxie and myself for custody of connie . ellie : i am so sorry , damian . spinelli : thanks . i appreciate your sympathy . ellie : you do realize this custody suit can only have one resolution , right ? i mean , while dante and lulu are wonderful parents who love your daughter , they 're not her biological parents . court ca n't really rule in their favor . spinelli : they might if they determine maxie to be an unfit mother . maxie : do you get how insane this is ? you are suing spinelli and me for custody of our own baby . lulu : you did n't leave us much choice , maxie . maxie : i did n't ? lulu : dante and i love our daughter , and you 're trying to take her from us . maxie : she is not your daughter . lulu : yes , she is . she is as much my daughter as if i 'd given birth to her . and now i 'm being told that i might lose her ? how do you think i felt when spinelli told me that you were getting a court order ? i was devastated . i even talked to dante about going on the run with her . maxie : you did ? lulu : but i did n't do it . i chose to do the right thing , to stay here and fight for my daughter . maxie : lulu , i actually understand how you 're feeling . because i feel that way right now , too . but it is not fair for you to try to take my baby away from me . lulu : you can go on and on about how this is not fair . but the only person who is responsible for any of this is you . olivia : yes . come here , you beautiful baby . oh . dante : so what do you want to talk to me about sonny ? what 's going on ? is it serious ? olivia : it 's true ? julian jerome is not dead after all . sonny : [ sighs ] yes . julian jerome is very much alive . olivia : oh , my god . julian jerome is derek wells ? sonny : julian jerome got a whole new life . now he 's derek wells , media mogul , courtesy of wsb . olivia : you could say that . i 'm just worried about what 's gon na happen to him . dante : worried ? why ? what , is he off his meds or something ? olivia : no , no , no . nothing like that . he 's right back on schedule . carly and i are on him like a hawk . he 's not gon na slip . it 's something else . um ... it 's about the men that are going after your father 's business . derek : thought you could use this . nothing calms the nerves like bourbon . to the jeromes . before tonight is over , the next phase in our strike against corinthos will be in play . yeah . ava : [ coughs ] derek : i 'll , um ... go pour myself another . ava : you better be right about this . derek : i am . you 'd be able to see that if you did n't let your feelings for this kid blind you . [ knocking on door ] carly : where is he ? ava : carly . what are you doing here ? carly : where the hell is he ? ava : well , i 'm very sorry , but this is not a good time . i need to ask you to leave . carly : gladly . and i 'll be taking my son with me . where 's morgan ? michael : look , if you came here for a fight , you 're out of luck , okay . i 'm not cooperating . morgan : do n't worry about it , mikey . i 'm not here to see you . i came to see dad . michael : dad 's not here . morgan : oh , then i guess i 'll wait . shawn : all this time , julian jerome was in witness protection . sonny : he must have had information that the wsb wanted . who 's to say , you know , who he ratted out ? now he 's back . he 's flipped . and he wants to take back the territory that he lost 20 years ago . shawn : yeah , well , only one problem . we 're in his way . sonny : tell you what . i ai n't moving . shawn : okay , so now that we know julian jerome is derek wells , what are we gon na do about it ? ava : this is my home . i 'm not in the mood for guests . i must insist that you leave . carly : i 'm not going anywhere without my son . ava : morgan is not here . carly : then where is he ? derek : what is going on out here ? carly : derek ? sonny : so , olivia thought it 'd be best if i sit down and talk with derek and then , you know , just tell him that i 'm onto him and , you know , work things out . shawn : you think julian jerome will be open to negotiation ? sonny : i doubt it , but if i make an overture , it gives him a chance to , you know , recharge , reorganize . the jeromes , this family , it 's like they 're so sloppy . you know what i mean ? especially when they 're unnerved . shawn : what are you doing ? sonny : uh , just unnerving the bastard . shawn : [ chuckles ] sonny : [ laughs ] derek : uh , carly . what a , uh , nice surprise . you look absolutely radiant . carly : do n't flirt with me . what are you doing here with her ? ava : i do have a name . carly : i have a lot of names for you . derek : okay , let 's try to keep this civil , ladies . i have been absolutely up front with you about my dealings with ms . jerome . i 'm simply buying some art from her . carly : right , right . so where is all this art ? because the last time i checked , your office looks the same way it did when connie left it . [ cell phone rings ] derek : would you -- excuse me ? i have to -- i have to take this . derek wells . sonny : hi , mr. wells . sonny corinthos . uh , i think it 's time you and i had a little chat . dante : what are you saying , ma ? what do you know about who 's going after sonny ? olivia : um , well , you know , this is n't normally the kind of thing that i would -- what ? what ? what ? what , baby ? what 's the matter ? what 's the matter ? dante : nothing , nothing . olivia : no , it 's got to be something . she was happy as a clam just a minute ago . dante : it 's okay . it 's not you . olivia : what ? dante : she 's just -- i do n't know . today she just acted like this . i think she senses all the tension . olivia : what tension ? dante : maxie and spinelli tried to get a court order to take connie away from us . olivia : my god . dante : it 's okay . they did n't get it . but now they 're going to court , which means lulu and i have to go to court , too , so we filed papers today . olivia : honey ... so ... so there 's gon na be a custody fight ? dante : yeah . olivia : [ sighs ] honey , you know , that i love this little baby like nobody 's business , but is this a fight you think you can win ? dante : not unless we fight dirty . ellie : so dante and lulu are actually claiming that you and maxie are unfit parents ? spinelli : i think they 're focusing their allegation on maxie . ellie : well , no wonder she 's upset . spinelli : i do n't believe `` upset `` begins to describe her state of mind . she 's in no shape to make any sort of rational argument , and yet i fear she 's gone to confront dante and lulu . ellie : which will only make things worse . spinelli : right . so i need to get to dante and lulu 's posthaste . ellie : damian , wait . spinelli : no , forgive my abrupt exit , ellie , but i really need to go . ellie : no , you ca n't do that . maxie : where is she ? lulu : ca n't just come in here and take connie . maxie : where is connie ? i want to see my daughter . lulu : thankfully connie is with dante right now . the last thing i want is you anywhere near her . maxie : lulu , this is insane . we -- we both know how this is gon na turn out , okay ? no judge is gon na grant you custody of a baby that is not yours . it is an open - and - shut case . lulu : really ? really ? if it 's so open - and - shut , then why is n't connie with you and spinelli right now ? spinelli : ellie , maxie is in no shape to deliver a lucid argument , let alone deal with the emotions that are bound to arise from a confrontation with lulu . ellie : you 're right . i 'm sure maxie is in a highly emotional state right now . one in which she should not be attempting any kind of peace brokering . spinelli : okay , so why are you hindering my exit ? ellie : because i really think now would be a good time to start divorcing yourself from maxie 's actions ... to prove to the court that you are capable of responsible and rational behavior and that you are a viable parent . spinelli : you 're right . ellie : yeah , occasionally i have a moment of clarity . spinelli : i 'd say more than occasionally . um ... but i 'm very appreciative for this one . [ sighs ] look , ellie , i should n't be dragging you into all this . ellie : yes , you should . i mean , all of this , everything that has to do with this baby -- it 's my fault . maxie : okay , i think we both just need to calm down for a minute . lulu : i am calm . maxie : then think about what you 're saying . because you sound certifiable . lulu : obviously the judge disagrees . not only does he think that dante and i have a case , but that we would provide a better temporary home , and it 's the judge 's job to decide what 's best for connie . maxie : right . he -- he picked you because i 'm so unfit . lulu : you said it . maxie : how can i be an unfit mother if i 've never been a mother before ? lulu : exactly . you have n't been . but i have . i am the one that spent the last year reading all of those baby books and buying all of the baby gear and baby- proofing this entire apartment and changing diapers and -- and giving baths . and i 'm the one that 's up doing all of the midnight feedings . maxie : i 'm going to do all of that , lulu . i 've already started catching up . i 'm doing everything i 'm supposed to be doing to get ready for this baby . just because i 'm not as experienced as you are does not mean i ca n't take care of this child . lulu : really ? just like the baby that you killed on new year 's eve ? dante : i 've never seen lulu like this before . i mean , she 's going for the jugular , doing everything she can to make sure maxie is not capable of raising our child . olivia : but is n't that what you want , though , to keep connie ? dante : of course it is . it 's not like i want to let maxie off the hook for what she did to us . it 's just ... olivia : what ? dante : like i said . she will do anything to keep connie . [ connie coos ] dante : even if it means destroying maxie 's life . olivia : and you 're not comfortable with that . dante : i do n't know . would you be ? i mean , the only way for us to keep connie is to basically ruin maxie 's life . okay , those actions resonate . i do n't care how justified you think you are in your actions . doing something like that , it stays with you . yeah . i 'm worried about how this case will affect maxie , but i 'm more worried about how it 's gon na affect my wife . maxie : i ca n't believe you just went there . lulu : believe it . maxie : throwing that miscarriage in my face . lulu , do you have any idea how hard that was for me ? lulu : no . i do n't . because you never bothered to tell me about it . maxie : i wanted to . lulu : i can imagine how you felt , though . it 's how i 've been feeling ever since i found out what happened . i did n't get to mourn my baby when he or she died , but i am grieving now . maxie : and i wish that had never happened . but it was an accident . lulu , i 'm sorry that i lost your baby . but that does not mean you can take mine away from me . spinelli : i - i do n't think everything with this baby is your fault . in fact , i 'd say there 's more than enough blame to go around . ellie : i know there were a lot of vectors that led us to this point . but if i had n't listened to maxie or let my insecurities get the best of me , this whole custody issue would have been avoided . i mean , we would n't even be having this conversation right now because you 'd be busy ... raising your daughter . spinelli : i - i do n't know what you want me to say . ellie : nothing . i just want to say this . damian , if i could go back and change things , if i could go back and tell you the truth from the very second that i found out maxie was carrying your child and tell you the truth , i would . i know that -- i know that does n't mean anything to you right now . spinelli : you 're wrong . it does . derek : mr. corinthos . sonny : mr. wells . you 're gon na have to excuse shawn . see , in my line of work , you 've got to protect yourself . we 've had a few incidents here , as you can see , you know . oh , what 's that about ? derek : well , you 'll have to excuse me , but , uh , when i meet with somebody of your reputation , i have to , uh , protect myself . no offense . sonny : oh , none taken . derek : so , um ... what can i do for you ? sonny : for me ? derek : yeah . i did just drop everything to come meet one of the big titans of the city . so i just -- i assumed you wanted something . sonny : uh , some new enemies , they came into town , they blew up my shipment , and they tore up this place . derek : yeah , yeah . i heard . it 's very unfortunate . but , uh ... what does that have to do with me ? sonny : from where i stand , a hell of a lot . carly : derek sure left in a hurry , huh ? it 's almost like he did n't want me to see you two together . you 're everyone 's dirty little secret , are n't you ? ava : derek had business , so he needed to leave . and now , sadly , so must you . carly : i do n't think so . ava : you 're a child . you know that . carly : morgan is a child . and i 'm not leaving here without my son . michael : morgan , get your feet off dad 's desk . come on . morgan : oh , touchy , touchy . michael : you know he does n't like when people are in his office when he 's not here . morgan : what are you , his enforcer now ? michael : no , i respect our father . morgan : actually , that would make sense , because you praised jason , but correct me if i 'm wrong -- did n't shawn take that spot ? michael : you 're only gon na make things worse between you and dad . you know that . morgan : and since when do you care about my relationship with dad ? michael : always . your whole life . look , he loves you . morgan : except he just loves you even more . michael : no , dad loves the same , okay , and i know you love him , too . that 's what you were coming to the warehouse to tell him . i am sorry i got in your way . morgan : you want to start apologizing , mikey ? okay , why do n't you start apologizing for -- for stealing my wife , first of all . and then you can apologize for always coming first with mom , with dad , with everyone , and then you can apologize for stealing everything that should have been mine . michael : this is pointless . you got to leave . morgan : oh , now i ca n't even stand in my dad 's office . michael : you know the rules . no one 's allowed in here . morgan : oh , except you ! michael : morgan , get out of here , or i 'm gon na throw you out . morgan : [ chuckles ] okay , mikey . then start throwing . ava : for someone who claims to love morgan , you do n't know the first thing about him . do you actually think dragging him out against his will is going to endear you to him ? carly : i 'm not trying to endear myself to him . i 'm trying to take care of my son . ava : morgan is exactly where he wants to be . carly : right . here with you . ava : two consenting adults having fun . carly : okay , i do n't care what the law says . i 'm morgan 's mother . and we 'll see how adult he really is when he finds out you 've been sleeping with derek wells . derek : i 'm not sure i follow , mr. corinthos . sonny : call me `` sonny . `` derek : sonny , okay . uh , i 'm still not sure how i have anything to do with the recent attacks against you . sonny : you are profiting , are n't you ? with your newspaper . derek : my paper ? sonny : yeah , you seem to think that , you know , my difficulties are worthy of the front page . and everything that you 've printed , you 've never come to me for a quote to hear my side of the story . i 'm not an expert , but is n't that the first rule of journalism ? derek : i own the paper . sonny : yeah . derek : i hire writers to write the stories . i 'm sure they 'd love an exclusive with you . i 'd be happy to set up an appointment so that you can sit down with one of my writers . sonny : no , no , no , no . we 're gon na do this right now . derek : okay . sonny : okay . derek : i do n't have a notebook . you mind if i record this ? sonny : uh , no . you do what you got to do . derek : good , good , good . so , mr. corinthos , sonny , what would you like to talk about ? sonny : well , the first thing is , uh ... i 've never once seen in those articles anything about the people who have hit me . derek : well , that is true . that information has been hard to come by . sonny : well , how 'bout if i could fill in the blanks ? i mean , that would sell a lot of newspapers , right ? derek : yeah , i 'm listening . sonny : i can give you the name -- of the person who ordered the hit . his name is -- you ready ? julian jerome . morgan : forget it , mikey . you 're not worth it . michael : look , if you want to wait in the restaurant -- morgan : you know , on second thought , i do n't need to see dad . i just came to give him something . this is grandpa mike 's . dad gave it to me for my wedding . i guess i do n't need to tell you how that turned out . michael : morgan -- morgan : i 'm returning it . michael : i think dad would want you to keep it . morgan : well , i do n't want it . but , hey , cheer up , mikey . maybe dad will give it to you when you get married to kiki . michael : [ sighs ] ava : ah . me sleeping with derek . that 's absurd . carly : you do n't think i bought the whole art story , do you ? i mean , i saw the way that you two looked at each other . not to mention his body language , the way he strolled in here with a drink in his hand . there 's something going on between the two of you . ava : whatever is going on between derek and me , morgan is more than aware , and he 's perfectly fine with it . carly : you know , you 're disgusting . ava : carly , i never figured you for a prude . the point is morgan knows where he stands . so the only person who has a problem with derek and me is you . so tell me , is this really about morgan , or are you just jealous ? carly : [ chuckles ] oh , i do n't know what you 're talking about . ava : oh , do n't be coy . derek told me that the two of you are seeing each other . what 's the matter ? you afraid i stole both your son and your boyfriend ? sonny : julian jerome was a mobster who used to run this town with a family . derek : really ? sonny : before my time . but , um , from what i 've been told , his father was the brains of the operation . julian was just like a -- like a wannabe who was gon na set himself up when his father croaked . and then his father ended up dying . he choked -- he choked on something . what did he choke on , shawn ? shawn : i believe it was a , um -- a necklace . sonny : a necklace . there 's nothing more embarrassing than choking on a necklace . [ both laugh ] sonny : but anyway , you know , julian , you know , he did n't build anything himself . he inherited everything from his daddy , right ? derek : you know , now that you mention it . this story does sound familiar . but the way i heard it -- julian jerome is dead , just like the rest of his family . sonny : well , see , that 's -- that 's , uh , that 's what i thought , but since his name keeps popping up , i 'm gon na have to , you know , take care of the situation . derek : do what you got to do , right ? sonny : yeah , yeah . and what do you think ? i mean , like ... you know , a dead mobster returns to settle a score on his father . i mean , you print that -- you print that story , it 's gon na sell a lot of paper . derek : mm - hmm . sonny : yeah . unless , of course , there 's a reason why you would n't want to print it . dante : maxie was lulu 's best friend . olivia : yeah , but lulu 's a mother now . her daughter 's her first priority . dante : oh , i know . she keeps reminding me how she 'll do whatever it takes to take maxie down . olivia : but you do n't believe her ? dante : look , whatever happens , whoever gets custody of connie , maxie and lulu are n't gon na be friends anymore . but that does n't change the fact how important maxie was to lulu . she was like the sister she never had . and when you hurt someone like that , that you love that much , there 's a cost to yourself . and i know she wants to keep connie , but she 's so blinded by love that she does n't see that . olivia : so what are you saying ? you think this custody fight 's a bad idea ? maxie : i will never stop feeling guilty about what happened on new year 's eve , but that does n't change the fact that connie is my baby . and i do n't owe it to you to give her up . lulu : as if you even want her . maxie : excuse me ? lulu : can we please just stop pretending ? we both know the reason that you 're fighting for connie , and it 's not because you 're her mother . it 's because -- she 's this season 's hottest accessory . maxie : what are you talking about ? i love her . lulu : sure you do . just like you loved being vegan for a month . and those cartullo sandals -- you called in so many favors for those , and then you never wore them because they were too on trend . you want connie right now . what happens when you find a shiny new toy ? maxie : lulu , i get it . okay ? what i did was wrong . and maybe that makes you think that i am being careless now . but i 'm not . just because i lied about whose baby she was does not make me an unfit mother . lulu : well , maybe it does n't . but what about all of the other horrible things that you 've done ? spinelli : you wishing that you 'd handled things differently , that does mean something to me . because i know it 's true . [ sighs ] i know you , ellie . i know that you 're one of the kindest people i 've ever met . i know that you would never intentionally do something to hurt someone else . and i know that the terrible way this all played out is the last thing you ever wanted . you 're the same person that you always were , ellie . and that 's the person i fell in love with . ellie : wait . are you saying -- that you still love me ? spinelli : of course . of course , i still love you . do n't -- do n't you understand ? being mad at anyone , especially someone i know so well and see on a regular basis , does n't come easy to me . it 's -- frankly , it requires a lot of work . and it 's exhausting . and with everything else that 's going on , i 'm -- physically , mentally , all of it , just exhausted . so staying mad at someone i love -- i - i just wish i could let it go . ellie : you can . damian , you can let it go . and i promise -- no , no . i swear that i will never do anything to hurt you like this again . and you do n't have to worry about my fear clouding my judgment because i wo n't be afraid of anything . because i 'll know that if we can get through this -- that nothing -- nothing can break us . that is -- if you can just forgive me . maxie : come on , lulu . we all make mistakes . lulu : really ? maxie , do you think that everyone makes mistakes on the same level as you ? i doubt it . and , please , before you deny it , remember that i have had a front - row seat to every single dirty deed you have ever done . maxie : like what ? lulu : wh -- you want me to start listing them ? maxie : is that what this is gon na come down to ? you listing off every little thing i 've ever done wrong ? lulu : not all of the mistakes you 've made were little , maxie . a lot of these so - called mistakes -- they were huge and ugly and life - altering . maxie : and now you 're going to throw them in my face . lulu : if i have to . i am connie 's mother , and i will do anything to protect her from you . even if that means airing your dirty laundry in court . maxie : fine . i 've messed up . a lot . lulu : it 's good of you to admit it . maxie : but -- so have you , lulu . you say you know all of my dirty secrets . well , i know yours . i do n't want to have to do this either , but if this is what i have to do to fight for my daughter , i will . dante : hey . to tell you the truth , ma , i do n't know if a custody battle is the right thing to do or not . but what i do know is that i 'll protect connie with my life . because she is my daughter . right ? [ connie cries ] dante : okay , okay . i just -- i just wish there was a better way than having to go to war with maxie and spinelli . olivia : i am so sorry . dante : it 's okay . okay . look , there 's nothing to do but wait right now , anyway . so in the meantime , why do n't you tell me what you wanted to tell me ? who do you think is going after sonny ? derek : well , that is a fascinating story , sonny . but i can think of a few reasons why i ca n't print it . sonny : enlighten me . derek : well , for starters , i do n't have any corroboration -- only you and your word . sonny : not just me . one of julian 's enforcers named him . right , shawn ? derek : that 's interesting . so how do i contact him ? sonny : oh , unfortunately , he disappeared . derek : that 's a shame . i mean , uh , i just ca n't print the story without a second source . i mean , i do n't want to get sued . sonny : sued ? who -- who would sue you ? derek : julian jerome , of course . sonny : oh , yeah . derek : [ chuckles ] especially if the story turns out to be false . sonny : oh , well , if it 's false -- he 's a dead man . derek : well , you do have a valid point , but -- i - i just ca n't risk tarnishing my paper 's reputation over a story that could be , you know , just about unsubstantiated rumors . i 'm sure you understand my position . sonny : more than ever . carly : you can think what you want , but i 'm not jealous of anyone . [ keys jingling ] ava : ah , that must be morgan now , with his key . carly : great . we can find out exactly what he knows about you and derek wells . morgan : [ sighs ] mom ? carly : come on . we need to go right now . morgan : whoa , whoa , whoa . hold up . no , i 'm not going . carly : this is not up for discussion . let 's go . morgan : dad could n't get me to leave . you really think you can ? carly : your father did n't tell you that she is sleeping with derek wells . morgan : [ scoffs ] carly : what ? what is so funny ? ava : [ chuckles ] i told you . morgan knows just where we all stand . and i think he 's told you what he wants from you , so . do i need to call security on you this time ? carly : wow . okay , fine . i 'll go . but one of these days , i will smack that smug look off your face . sonny : thank you , mr. wells , for everything . shawn , can you give the gentleman his weapon back ? derek : i 'm really sorry i could n't be of more assistance . sonny : hey , do n't even worry about it . you know why ? 'cause i 'm gon na try to figure out what 's going on with this julian jerome thing on my own . it 's probably best . because when i find -- [ chuckles ] when i find out who messed with me , i am gon na mess with them back . [ scene_break ] ellie : i 'm sorry . i do n't want to push you . but when you 're ready to talk , just let me know . in the meantime , i 'm -- i 'm gon na give you some space . spinelli : do n't go . i do n't need space from you . i do n't want space from you . i love you . ellie : i love you , too . lulu : if this is how you want to play it , then i 'll see you in court . maxie : bring it on . lulu : you bet i will . and get the hell out of my house . maxie : gladly . [ door slams ] ellie : i promise , damian -- we 're in this together . lulu : [ breathes deeply ] dante : ma , what is it ? ma , what do you know ? sonny : if i go to dante and tell him that derek wells is julian jerome , he 's gon na go after him . i do n't want to use my son to protect me . olivia : of course not . he 's got the whole police force behind him , sonny . maybe even the wsb gets involved and makes this jerome guy leave town . sonny : i do n't want to do that , though . 'cause he 's got enough going on with his baby . i do n't want dante to be in the middle of my bad business . olivia : i do n't know anything , really . i just wanted you to keep an eye out for your father . that 's all . dante : you 're sure ? olivia : yeah , yeah . i want you to be focusing on your family right now , okay ? you know your father . he can handle himself . sonny : hey , michael . michael : hey , dad . sonny : what 's going on ? michael : morgan was here . morgan : i probably , you know , should n't have enjoyed watching my mom squirm like that . ava : let 's not talk about your mom .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : i know this sounds silly , but i ca n't wait to write my thank - you letters . and i still ca n't believe you guys threw me a shower . patrick : well , you have no idea what we had to promise obrecht to make that happen . it was worth it . elizabeth : oh . oh , no . patrick : it was tough . elizabeth : [ laughs ] okay , hand me that . i think i 've got everything . and i 'm out of here . patrick : oh , hold on . epiphany said there 's something else here for you . i think she said she -- yep . who do you know from vienna ? elizabeth : [ gasps ] oh ! my gram 's in vienna . patrick : oh , yeah ? elizabeth : she was supposed to be back last week , but she twisted her ankle , and because she 's prone to dvt , her doctor does n't want her flying until she 's walking . unfortunately , she 's not gon na be here for the wedding . look . audrey : dear elizabeth , i 'm so sorry i wo n't be able to attend your wedding . but please know that i am there in spirit . it 's been my good fortune to watch you bloom into a confident , spirited woman and mother , and soon , wife . you have waited a long time for the right man to win your heart , so long that perhaps you thought you were n't worthy of love at all . i hope now you will put any doubt to rest . you deserve the happiness you 've built with jake . it 's precious . nurture it , and i know you and jake will have an even longer and more joyful marriage than your grandfather and i had . love , gram . patrick : i take it she wished you well ? elizabeth : she predicts that i 'll have a long and joyful marriage , like she did with my grandfather . [ scene_break ] nathan : you 're gon na tell lulu about valerie ? dante : yeah . you know , the only reason why i did n't tell her is because i did n't feel like it was fair to clear my conscience at her expense . but i talked to my father , and i realized i ca n't keep lying to my wife . nathan : you gon na give valerie a heads - up at least , so she 's prepared ? dante : yeah . and i know this is gon na fall on her , and i do n't want that to happen , but lulu needs to hear the truth . i have to believe that we 're stronger than my mistake . nathan : well , for what it 's worth , i think you 're making the right choice . dante : it 's gon na hurt her . she 's gon na be furious , and i deserve it . but she 's got to hear the truth , and she 's got to hear it from me . [ scene_break ] valerie : dante was out of his mind with jealousy . he thought his marriage was over . when he realized how wrong he had been -- dillon : what were you thinking , recording a private conversation ? andy : i swear , i did n't mean to . i was charging the camera , and i guess i bumped the `` record `` button . dillon : delete it . now , right now , delete it . andy : this project is 50 % of my grade . if i fail this class , i 'll never get into grad school . please , dillon , give me another chance . dillon : you violated my privacy . do you realize how bad this is ? andy : i will edit out everything with you and valerie after the party . the rest of my footage is completely legit . please . i need this . dillon : fine . just make sure nobody ever sees this . if this ever got out , a lot of people i care about would be really hurt . andy : this will never be spoken of again , i swear . valerie : oh , i 'm sorry . i was just looking for a place to adjust my costume . dillon : no worries . the room is all yours . let 's go , andy . [ door slams ] [ scene_break ] morgan : i want a good part . i do n't want to be in the background . i 'm thinking something maybe with a sex scene ? darby : so you 're an exhibitionist ? morgan : oh , i do n't know . why do n't you come to the premiere , and you can find out ? maxie : you better be serious about the cash , morgan , before i talk to the director about you and some love scene . morgan : i 'm good . i 'll have my mom write you a check . molly : okay , now i know you 're kidding . tj : no way your mother 's gon na pay for you to be in a film . morgan : come on . my mom will finance my creative expression -- absolutely . how 's this ? i will double the donation if you let me pick my scene partner . darby : i like how you think , captain . maxie : get me a check with a lot of zeroes , and i will make your dreams come true . morgan : okay . have you ever thought about a career in film ? molly : kiki who ?

most of port charles are in costume attending the fundraiser for dillon 's movie at the haunted star . kiki is ready to go but ava comes by the apartment to pay her a visit and urge her daughter , one more time , to reconsider her decision not to help her get custody of baby avery . kiki , once again tells her mother she washes her hands of her , believes the baby is better off without her and that she , herself , is better off with franco and nina as her parents than with ava . meanwhile , morgan seems to be moving on and over kiki while he happily interacts with darby . while attending the party , paul is hearing anna 's voice mail message on sloane 's phone , which he has been keeping in his possession after he murdered sloane . he goes to meet her on the docks knowing he will find her there . he gets to the point by telling her he knows she murdered carlos and he 's covering for her by cremating the body and by `` preventing `` sloane from getting anna charged with murder . she knows paul is up to no good and doing illegal business with the murder investigation , being aware that another individual besides carlos has been murdered and unaccounted for ( although she does not catch on that it 's sloane ) . yet she knows it 's not in her best interest to expose paul after finding out he 's enabled her to get away with murder . dillon finds out , for the first time , that his conversation with valerie , where she admitted she slept with dante has been `` accidentally `` recorded . he finds andy , the camera guy and tells him he better hand over the flash - drive because he has no business keeping it , as it could ruin people 's lives . yet does dillon really want to destroy the perfect evidence he needs for lulu to find out her husband cheated on her and lied , and so that dillon might be able to have lulu ? spinelli is almost ready to unravel the mystery of who jake really is when he has to return home for an emergency with his daughter . he goes to find carly and she 's ready to bring sam what spinelli needs in order to get the information about who jake really is before he 's already married elizabeth . right then , the computer program reveals something that might drastically change everybody 's life . at the haunted star , dillon has all the guests watch what he `` intends `` to be his screenplay movie . yet ( intended or unintended ) , they are all shocked to see and hear dillon 's and valerie 's conversation where she is about to reveal that she slept with dante .

[ tracy laughs ] tracy : if you need a chambermaid or a masseuse or a room service waiter , you 're on your own . you want to call that bailing , fine . i call it self- preservation . scott : okay , i 'll do it myself . just ring his room and hang up after the first ring if he comes back into the hotel . can you do that for me ? tracy : yes , i can , but why would i ? in fact , i think i should go home to port charles and leave you to rescue your damsel in distress all by your lonesome . [ scene_break ] laura : up until now this has been a very nice little walk down memory lane , so do n't ruin it with lies . scott : laura , i 'm not lying to you . this is the truth . laura : tracy quartermaine ? come on . that does n't even make sense . scott : i know . it took everybody by surprise in the town . they 've been married for years . one day tracy and luke went to vegas . they got drunk , and they woke up married . laura : drunk ? scott : well , it was really about money . he wanted some . she had it . scott : so while he was swearing his undying love to you , he was married to tracy quartermaine . laura : no , he would have told me that . scott : he did n't know how long your recovery time was going to be . you know luke . if he can have his cake and eat it , too . laura : but we were married by a minister . there 's -- scott : it was an actor , and he was playing the part of a minister . laura , listen . pick up the phone , call anybody in port charles , and they will tell you that tracy is mrs. luke spencer .

[ scene_break ] sonny : excuse me . nadine : how can i help you , mr. corinthos ? sonny : just -- i need to ask a question . is anthony zacchara doing as well as he seems to be ? nadine : he is expected to make a full recovery , but you 'd have to talk to his doctor and his family for specifics . sonny : yeah , yeah , of course . that 's exactly what i 'm going to do . thank you . nadine : mm - hmm . man : mr. karpov wants a meeting . [ scene_break ] sam : hey , matt , hi . nadine said i should talk to you about the clinic fire . matt : i 'm recovering nicely , yes . thank you for asking . sam : oh , look , i 'm sorry . i 'm glad that you 're doing good . i was just -- is there anything that you remember at all before you passed out ? anything . matt : anything ? sam : anything . matt : there was someone who was standing by me , a man . sam : any detail please . matt : he was wearing a pair of distinctive - looking shoes . nadine mentioned it was something that jerry jax might wear . i do n't know . you know nadine . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . maxie : elizabeth , how is robin ? what 's going on ? elizabeth : there are some complications . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone ringing ] sam : hello ? jerry : sweet sam . we should meet up . sam : okay , fine , just tell me where . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : dr. lee is concerned with the position of the baby 's umbilical cord , so what we do now is try to reposition it . maxie : well , what if you ca n't ? then what happens ? anna : hey , maxie , shh . kelly : by pumping iv fluids into the uterine cavity , we can cushion the cord . that way when the contractions squeeze the cord , it will keep the baby 's blood supply steady . what you can do , patrick , is help robin change positions frequently so we can float the cord into a better position . [ scene_break ] nikolas : okay , thank you . lucky : okay , so scott is registered at the truman hotel in hollywood . i have a car waiting to take us there as soon as we land . nikolas : great , so now we just got to figure out how to get her away from him . lulu : i have a feeling that scott will do whatever mom wants . lucky : are you really buying into what mom wrote in that memory book ? lulu : all i 'm saying is that scott was not always a bad guy . lucky : you ca n't ignore what baldwin has become . nikolas : look , i -- i think she 's right . at one point i 'm sure they were very happy until luke blew up their relationship . lulu : look , lucky , the memory book stops when mom went to work for dad at the campus disco . it does n't say anything else , but you know that she was attracted to dad even though she was married to scott , and things blew up . that 's not scott 's fault . lucky : are you really taking his side ? nikolas : look , it 's -- lulu : i am just saying not everyone 's all good or all bad . it 's a little more complicated than that . lucky : whatever it was , it happened years ago . nikolas : maybe so , but it 's not over , okay ? it 's not over by a long shot . [ scene_break ] edward : yes , dear , i 'm sorry , but luke and tracy have been married for three years . is there anything you need , something that i could help you with ? laura : that 's very kind of you , edward . no , i 'm going to be just fine , thank you , and thank you for your honesty . good night . scott : laura , i 'm really , really sorry . laura : no , you 're not . you 're thrilled to death , are n't you ? now you have your proof that luke is n't worthy of me . scott : i do n't blame luke for marrying tracy . i blame him for letting you make a commitment to him when that wedding and those vows -- they were just a scam . laura : i want to go back to the hotel now . [ scene_break ] sam : jerry ? [ scene_break ] sonny : you 're making a mistake . karpov : the mistake was yours , and you repaid my generosity by trying to shoot me . sonny : if you 're going to shoot me and kill me , at least admit that you shot kate . after that , i do n't care what you do . [ scene_break ] [ robin groans ] kelly : i want an o.r . prepped and standing by . how long ? okay , notify me as soon as an o.r . comes available . thanks . they 're overbooked upstairs . i 'm going to go try and clear a room just in case we need to do c - section . i 'll be back , okay ? robin : okay . hey , guess what ? patrick : what ? robin : labor -- it really -- it really hurts . patrick : yeah ? robin : yeah , it -- you know , all the things that i thought could go wrong , a compromised umbilical cord was n't one of them , but i just have to tell myself everything 's okay , you 're here , our baby 's going to be okay . patrick : yeah , we 're going to be all right . we love each other , we love this baby , and we believe in our staff , okay ? robin : yeah . patrick : it 's going to be okay . robin : oh , oh , here comes another one . patrick : okay , just breathe . try and breathe . [ robin groans ] [ scene_break ] maxie : robin looked so beautiful , and everything was perfect , just like i promised her it would be . she did n't even get to throw her bouquet . spinelli : the jackal had intended to make a presentation after the wedding , but now seems as good a time as any . happy birthday . maxie : that 's so sweet . spinelli : while patrick and robin 's impending parenthood is cause for celebration , nothing should detract from the anniversary of maximista 's entry into this world . maxie : oh , it 's a journal . i 'm not really good at writing in these things , but -- spinelli , did you do all this yourself ? spinelli : the jackal was inspired by fair maximista to trace the echo of beauty throughout the history of art and man . maxie : inspired by me ? spinelli : it has all my favorite artists -- caravaggio , botticelli . cellini was their equal in the art of sculpture , and knowing that fair maximista has a love for music , but not knowing whether or not she 's experienced the romantic classics of strauss , vivaldi , stravinsky -- maxie : you really have to be a genius to know about all this stuff . spinelli : well , i do n't know about that , but they do say that every genius has a muse , and if so , if what you say is true , then i owe a huge debt to my inspiration . i mean , it was just my great desire to share my knowledge of beauty with she who honors me with her friendship . maxie : thank you so much . you know exactly how to make me feel special . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : okay , the baby is experiencing a deceleration in her heart rate every time robin has a contraction . anna : well , what do we do ? mac : can she do a c - section ? elizabeth : there are risks with having a cesarean , and there 's a chance the umbilical cord may be wrapped around her neck . anna : oh , god . [ scene_break ] patrick : okay , okay , okay . robin : oh , oh ! aah ! [ scene_break ] anna : oh , god . i refuse to believe that all that robin has been through in her life that something could happen to her baby . mac : if robin ever needed our love and courage , now is the time . [ scene_break ] maxie : sometimes i still feel georgie . do you think she can hear us ? spinelli : the kind and gentle friend has a powerful spirit . maxie : i swear , georgie , if you can hear me , please do n't let anything bad happen to robin and her baby . they need you looking out for them right now . [ scene_break ] robin : about the closet . patrick : you mean the nursery . robin : i know it 's a closet . you know it 's a closet . we have to get the kid out of there before she knows it 's a closet . you know , once this is done , i think we should rethink our living arrangements . patrick : yeah ? robin : yes . patrick : whatever you want . robin : maybe we can get one of those big victorian houses across from -- here comes another one . [ robin screams ] elizabeth : the d cells are prolonged and the variability is minimal . kelly : she 's in distress . [ scene_break ] sam : i do n't know what you think your deal is -- jason : what are you doing ? [ explosion ] [ scene_break ] sonny : just answer me , karpov . did you shoot kate ? karpov : you are in no position to make demands . sonny : you did n't shoot her , did you ? karpov : what does it matter who shot the woman , hmm ? she 'll live , and you , you 're about to die . [ karpov grunts ] [ karpov speaking russian ] [ alternative rock playing ] singer : everything i wanted everything i needed everything i trusted you 're everything to me you 're everything [ scene_break ] luke : please , cut your old man some slack . i did n't want this to happen . you think that i expected this to happen ? tracy : it 's always just the luck of the draw with you . i do n't blame you , but i also can not stand by and idly watch my marriage disintegrate . i do n't bow out gracefully . i 'm not made that way . luke : why bow out at all ? tracy : you do n't get it . this is not going to end well for us . [ scene_break ] scott : laura , you need to work this out . laura : yeah , i do . but you know , knowing the truth about luke does n't change how i feel about you . scott : yeah , well , the proof is that i 've always loved you . and all he 's done is lie to you . singer : you 're everything i wanted everything i needed everything i trusted you 're everything to me

i remember this halloween . a.j . : [ laughs ] i remember that mask ! monica : shh ! shh ! shh ! shh ! a.j . : i scared the hell out of jason . he screamed so loud . dad dropped a drink in his lap , and grandfather swore that he was having chest pains . monica : and you were so pleased . all you did was just laugh . michael : you should have seen your face . starr : you nearly gave me a heart attack , michael . michael : oh , i 'm sorry . the girl who had snakes as pets and can name every spider in north america -- come on . you loved it . starr : okay . maybe i loved it , and maybe i did n't . i 'm just glad that you ended up coming over here . michael : yeah , well , there 's no point sitting around dwelling on everything . so , does this mean i get my treat ?

lulu : mm - hmm . dante : anyway , this one kid finally got me . a little kid , 5 years old -- he goes , `` i arrest you forever ! `` i guess he was happy i was a robber . lulu : i -- i think i 'm happy you 're a robber , too . dante : that 's good . lulu : well , it 's sweet that you do that . dante : yeah , these kids need something positive in their lives . lulu : yeah . i mean , uh ... a lot of kids do . dante : ah . is that one of the pamphlets we got from dr. v. ? lulu : yeah . it 's adoption . i do n't know . i mean , i know that a lot of kids are born every year and they need a good home . dante : and ... ours could be one of them ? maxie : well , that was the best birthday cupcake i 've ever had . thank you . emma : you 're welcome , maxie . maxie : you know , today 's a special day for you , too . emma : it 's halloween . maxie : it is halloween ! and you should be wearing your costume already . i know you 're gon na look gorgeous . i ca n't wait to see it . go put it on . emma : okay . maxie : okay . so cute . patrick : so cute . maxie : thank you for remembering . it means more than you know . patrick : everything you 've done for me , it 's not a problem . and speaking of halloween , what 's the big plan tonight there , rock star ? maxie : actually , i 'm moving out tonight . duke : this photograph does n't do you any justice . anna : really ? it 's the least of my problems . i 've got to find the person who finished off bernie abrahms , 'cause that 's the one that killed jason morgan . duke : are you making any progress ? anna : yeah , i 'm waiting on forensics . plus , there 's some fibers that i found at the scene . they 're working those up . with any luck , it 'll lead me to our man . or it 's all unrelated ... and he 's out there somewhere , just laughing at me . duke : i can assure you he 's not doing that . todd : what the hell are you doing ? luke spencer . luke : hmm . no wonder you did n't recognize me . last time , you were the one with the mask . todd : i -- i do n't know what you 're talking about . luke : oh , really ? sure , you do . the gardener 's shack . me tied to a chair , held hostage by heather webber and some spud with a hockey mask and a machete . todd : you were held hostage for a long time . clearly , you 're hallucinating . have you considered professional counseling ? luke : i knew that heather was a whack - job . she could n't be gotten to . but her accomplice -- he was something else . he could have freed me , if he 'd had a soul . todd : [ chuckles ] assuming that there was an accomplice -- and i 'm sure that he does have a soul , somewhere -- maybe he just figured that you would get yourself out of that mess by yourself . luke : really ? he was about your height , about your weight , and he had a fixation with fine italian footwear . todd : right . so starving , dehydrated , but you noticed the shoes . [ chuckles ] but that 's good , because it 's the details that make a story compelling . if you 're here because i 'm a publisher , i 'm afraid i ca n't print your story . i 'm sorry , but you being held hostage by heather -- that 's old news . luke : you 're a very skilled dissembler , manning . but i can spot a bluff . let 's not play any more games . i know that you were her accomplice . just admit it . patrick : why are you moving out ? maxie : i ca n't impose on you and emma . patrick : since when ? maxie : [ sighs ] look , we 're not even technically gon na be family anymore . once i sign the divorce papers , matt will be my ex - husband and you 'll be my ex- brother - in - law . patrick : you are robin 's cousin . you 're always gon na be family to us . maxie : sometimes family can get on your very last nerve . patrick : okay . all right . i know that we had some rough sledding in the beginning , but i feel like we 've settled into something here . maxie : i kind of feel like i 'm in limbo , you know ? like -- like i 've convinced myself that i 'm helping take care of you and emma , but what i 'm really doing is avoiding living my own life . patrick : yeah . no , i 'm not gon na lie to you . i feel like you had a little bit of that . maxie : okay , and i 'm not gon na do that anymore . i think it 's time that i get out on my own and -- i do n't know -- start a life with someone else . patrick : spinelli ? maxie : you know how life is all about timing ? mine happens to be very terrible . he 's seeing someone new . she 's cute and smart and very nice . she speaks spinelli better than i do . they can about comic books or astronomy for hours . and the horrible part is i actually really like her . not enough for spinelli , though . i want him with me . patrick : was that the birthday wish ? maxie : me and spinelli forever . yeah , it 's got to happen . i told him about the divorce . and once he sees that i 'm moving out of here , he 'll know i 'm serious . patrick : all right . uh , well , in that case , i 'm not gon na stand in your way of moving forward . maxie : ditto . todd : see a guy in a hockey mask and a decent pair of shoes , and you just assume that it 's me ? i -- i do n't even know what to say to you . luke : hockey mask , shoes , known association with heather . you were her boss . you were up to your neck in the baby switch . todd : no . i was a victim . i trusted her before i figured out that she was a complete and total lunatic . luke : uh - huh . well , then , you wo n't mind i take a look at your shoe rack . todd : no , no , not at all , right after you get your commissioner girlfriend who talks funny to give you a warrant . but i do n't think she 'll do that , because she might have told you , but she was there when the charges against me were all dropped . luke : well , she does n't anything about the shoes yet . todd : well , um , if you want to waste her time and the taxpayers ' money going through my shoe closet , go ahead , knock yourself out . but for now , i think it 's time for you to your treat and leave . luke : i know it was you , manning . i know it . i ca n't prove it -- yet -- but i 'll give you a word of warning -- when the wheel of karma comes around , it 's gon na roll right over you . todd : you forgot your mask . luke : oh , no , you keep it -- for next time . anna : what do know about the second shooter ? duke : only what you told me . but i do know you 're smart , you 're strong , you have great instincts , and at the end of the day , you always get your man . anna : thanks for the vote of confidence . i really do have to come to a resolution on this case . i owe that to the quartermaines . duke : hey , tonight is my first night at the haunted star , and they 're having this big halloween bash . i 'd love it if you 'd come . will you do that ? lulu : i do n't know about adoption . i just -- i have to get used to the idea of little rocco not looking like you . dante : well , there 's no guarantee the he would have been as handsome as his father and that he would have been a boy , anyway . lulu : i know . you know what i mean ? i just know how much it means to you to have your own child . dante : we want to be parents . that 's the point , right ? lulu : so you do n't care if the child is n't biologically yours ? dante : no . who cares where the baby comes from ? it 's you and me and how much love we have to give that counts . michael : oh -- starr : [ laughing ] i 'm try -- i was trying to be sexy and smooth , and i could n't get your cape off . michael : let me do it . see if i can do this . starr : do you want help ? michael : here you go . i got it . starr : that 's better . oh ! oh , my god ! michael : [ laughing ] are you okay ? michael : oh , i 'm all right . starr : we 're absolutely hopeless . this is not -- michael : maybe , uh , we should move this into the bedroom . or not . it 's -- i -- starr : no . it 's , um -- yeah . no . we could . it 's just -- what 's this ? michael : oh . um , monica gave that to me . starr : well , that 's -- that 's jason , right ? so , who 's -- who 's that ? michael : that 's my father . monica : you know , i think i have these costumes in a closet somewhere . i did n't throw out anything from your childhood . a.j . : i 'm glad you did n't throw them out . monica : me too . me too , because after you ... left , i would come up here a lot and think about you and jason and when you were younger . and i would regret the time i did n't spend with you boys , when alan and i were off doing something else . the times that we missed -- so many of them . now jason is gone .

elizabeth : oh , do n't say that name . let 's go . duke : well , after she visited faison and his subsequent escape from steinmauer prison , she -- she fetched robert from the clinic . patrick : trying to help smoke faison out ? duke : well , that would be the obvious , would n't it ? i mean , anna 's driven when it comes to that madman . patrick : yeah , well , that 'd be an understatement . nobody would blame her . duke : well , that 's why i 'm so concerned -- 'cause she has n't checked in . i think it 's possible that maybe she and robert have caught up with faison and he 's turned the tables on them . patrick : all right . well , i would n't sound the alarms just yet . now , maybe we have n't talked to her , but she might have talked to nikolas cassadine . duke : when ? patrick : i 'm not sure when , but -- but nikolas and britt westbourne went to go try and save her son . duke : from that madwoman liesl obrecht ? patrick : yeah . duke : and you think they came across faison ? patrick : they might have because nikolas said that anna was going after obrecht , so maybe they talked . maybe nikolas knows something . nikolas : they 're gone . you can come out . faison : elizabeth has only grown more fetching since i saw her last . dr. obrecht : gott in himmel , cesar . nikolas : add her to the list of people to stay away from . britt : yeah . add everyone . what the hell is this ? robin : oh , your mother 's trying to dress me up in costume . britt : do you ever stop ? nikolas : [ sighs ] we 're going out . i do n't imagine there will be any more trick - or - treaters , but if i 'm wrong and the doorbell rings , do n't answer it . in fact , go squat upstairs . dr. obrecht : at the very least , change your costume . this never would have happened if you 'd dressed as david hasselhoff , as i advised . nikolas : [ sighs ] britt : ohh . nikolas : i assume that you heard all that out there ? robin : yeah . it 's , you know -- go have fun at the party . nikolas : i - i wish you could go . robin : you and me both . nikolas : i mean , we can -- we can stay . it 's not a big deal . robin : no , no , no . you should go after lesley . make sure she just does n't talk about faison to anybody . britt : yeah . i sure wish she would n't have brought it up a second time . nikolas : i know . i 'm hoping -- i 'm hoping she 'll just write it off . yeah , you 're right . we ca n't have lesley mentioning faison at the gh . rumor mill . felix : i 've got no use for a man who wo n't care for his child , no matter what costume he wears . brad : are you still on this ? felix : are you still denying your son ? brad : felix , guess what -- it 's not 1952 . children come into this world in all different ways now . britt and i had an agreement . i 'm just honoring it . felix : you did not just say , `` honor `` and `` i `` in the same sentence . brad : she does n't want me involved with her baby 's life . felix : okay . what if she did ? what if she changed her mind and came up to you ? am i to believe that you 'd morph into dad of the year ? brad : you know , i 'm not nearly as awful as you always make me out to be . felix : yeah ? prove it . brad : i already did . that christening ring a bell ? because of me , a huge , huge injustice was revealed . felix : yeah , let me get my slow clap on . [ clapping slowly ] brad : really ? no credit ? felix : for perpetuating a lie about a baby 's parents ? upending one , two , three , four , five people 's lives with the whole thing at the said baby 's christening , all because you wanted to get in good with yours truly ? [ chuckles ] sorry . no credit here . brad : so , you rather i stay quiet ? see ? you know it was the right thing to do . felix : okay . you did the right thing for someone else 's kid . how 'bout doing the right thing for yours ? carly : what 's the matter ? cat got your tongue ? franco : i wish . carly : 'cause i find your -- franco : my tongue ? carly : your preoccupation with my -- franco : with your tail ? carly : with my social planning surprising . franco : do you ? carly : yeah . franco : really ? carly : i do n't think it 'll please diane . remember her -- your girlfriend ? i 'm sure she has your shoulder pads and garter all picked out for tomorrow night , so ... franco : why would diane pick me out a garter belt ?
