julian : no , ava . i -- [ sighs ] i have n't spoken to sonny . what do you mean ? like a -- like a gift basket or something ? [ knock on door ] julian : hold on . hold on . there 's somebody at the door . would you relax ? it 's not sonny . the guy ca n't lay a finger on me , not after i neutralized him last night . sonny : morning , sunshine . olivia : morning ? what 's -- what time is it ? sonny : [ chuckling ] a little -- a little past 8 : 00 . olivia : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i got to go . sonny : wait . wait . where are you going ? olivia : i got to get to the court , to the custody hearing . i ca n't believe i slept so late . sonny : olivia , hold on . do you -- you want to talk about what happened last night ? tracy : would you hurry up , please ? i want to get to the hospital and make sure that cure is really working . luke : everything seemed to be working fine last night . tracy : i ca n't complain . luke : besides , the hospital can wait . we need to get to the cops and tell them about jerry jacks . tracy : oh , uh - huh . clearly your mind is not as sound as the rest of you . we already agreed , last night , that until we get absolute proof that the cure is working , the cops ca n't know anything about this . dante : cops ca n't know anything about what ? ellie : well , i think i 'm the luckiest person alive . we 're finally back together because you found it in your heart to forgive me for my unconscionable lie about your baby . spinelli : there 's more than enough blame to go around . and as for you , you apologized and did all you could to make amends . so how could i not forgive you ? ellie : and now you and maxie are going to fight for your baby . everything 's as it should be . spinelli : [ chuckles ] ellie : except for brad the cad -- the lab supervisor from hell who intentionally changed the schedule so i had to work today , which , therefore , makes it impossible for me to accompany you to court . spinelli : but you 'll be with me in spirit . ellie : [ chuckles ] i will think only good thoughts for you and maxie and your daughter . spinelli : well , they are most gratefully accepted . ellie : now , should n't you go ? the fate of your daughter is being decided today . felicia : hey , sweetheart . maxie : hey . felicia : i just talked to mac . he 's so sorry he ca n't be here . maxie : i understand . he needs to track down robert and anna . felicia : he asked me to give you a hug from him . how are you holding up ? maxie : well , i 'm doing my best to make sure i do n't look like an unfit mother . diane : scott . how nice to see you . i guess congratulations are in order . scott : ah , i am proud to be the district attorney of port charles once again . diane : oh , for heaven 's sakes . i was n't talking about your career . i was talking about your son . franco : [ chuckles ] hi . carly : hi . franco : good morning . carly : good morning . franco : [ chuckles ] you 're here . carly : of course i 'm still here . franco : can i ask you something ? carly : what ? franco : in the cold light of day , is n't there a part of you that thinks that this is a mistake ? tracy : look who 's here -- lulu , dante , and their beautiful offspring . i 'm not much of a baby person , but this one 's gorgeous . can i hold her ? lulu : of course . tracy : hi . lulu : dad . luke : hey , cupcake . lulu : i got the message that you were back , but i had to see you . luke : how do i look ? lulu : really good . and you 're here . and you 're alive . luke : and kicking ! lulu : [ laughs ] luke : come here , you . lulu : [ sighs ] i did n't think that i would get to do this again . so , what happened ? i mean , you found the cure ? luke : well , aspirin may be a wonder drug , but it does nothing for polonium . lulu : where did you go ? how did you find it ? tracy : you know what ? the point is we found it and he 's here , right where he belongs . lulu : okay . what 's the catch ? luke : no catch . look at me . tracy : we 're gon na focus on the positive . you get to know this baby . luke : aww . tracy : and bask in the glories of grandparenthood . dante : that all depends on what happens in court today . maxie : do you think that my dress looks okay ? i mean , i want to look good but not too good . i do n't want the judge to think that i spend too much time thinking about fashion and not enough time thinking about my baby , but my hair and my makeup and my clothes -- they need to scream , `` good mother . `` felicia : yeah . you look lovely . maxie : [ sighs ] felicia : although i 'm not sure i 'm the best person to give you the seal of approval . maxie : [ chuckles ] i will take anyone 's approval i can get . i 'm sorry . that came out ... wrong . of course i want your approval , mom . let 's face it -- this courtroom 's gon na be full of people who do n't approve of me . and i really -- i do n't want the judge to be one of them . he has to think that i 'm gon na be a good mother . felicia : yeah . maxie : you think i will be a good mother , do n't you ? felicia : yes . i do . although i think you know better than anyone i 'm no expert . if anybody was an unfit mother , it would be me . i was n't there for you when you needed me the most . maxie : but you 're here for me now , when i need you more than ever . i 'm really scared , mom . spinelli : i wish it did n't have to be so ugly . i know dante and lulu are determined to keep connie and that maxie will surely be the target of many ... vicious attacks -- not all unfounded , unfortunately . ellie : yeah . alexis will most likely use the most persuasive and hurtful arguments she can . spinelli : one can almost guarantee it . ellie : but diane is nothing if not her equal . she 'll counteract alexis ' arguments , guaranteeing that maxie 's protected . diane must have gone through her strategy with you , yeah ? spinelli : uh , she did float an idea this morning , something that i could do to ... protect maxie and strengthen our case . ellie : i knew it . so -- so , what did she suggest to you ? spinelli : that i marry maxie . scott : do you mind ? i do n't want to hear that name -- franco . i 'm afraid that that scandal with my new son and some crazy old girlfriend could tank my political career before i 'm even sworn in . diane : oh , come on . franco 's not that bad , especially since that vicious tumor was removed . scott : oh , right . right . the tumor did it all . i liked that . you really went to the mattress for your boyfriend . diane : for pete 's sake , franco was never my boyfriend . scott : he was n't ? diane : no . it was all just a smoke screen to cover his involvement with heather . no , your son 's heart really belongs to carly . scott : oh . this gets worse and worse . i mean , i 'm crazy about bobbie , but carly is a pain in the neck . carly : why would you ask me if i think i made a mistake ? franco : because ... i 'm the son of a second - rate d.a . and i got a brand - new crazy - person mother who hates my guts and -- carly : [ chuckles ] no . you have a brand - new crazy mother who hates my guts . franco : yeah , exactly . carly : [ chuckles ] franco : exactly . and , by the way , um , i do owe you a crapload of money for this overpriced hotel room . carly : uh , by the way , you owe me a crapload of money for my competitively priced hotel . franco : [ chuckles ] yeah . so , i 'm just wondering if ... this is n't when you just dump me and run back to your boyfriend , derek wells . julian : what a pleasant surprise . if i knew you were coming , i would have put some pants on or , i do n't know , maybe not . alexis : i 'm not staying . and do n't flatter yourself . i do n't care what you 're wearing . julian : well , in that case , you , uh , look very nice . it 's good to see you . so , what brings you here ? alexis : i brought you your paper . proud of yourself ? olivia : sonny , last night , you were upset about what morgan did and julian jerome and -- i mean , what can you do ? he 's -- he 's danny 's grandfather . you ca n't move against him without hurting jason 's son , and you were in pain , and you needed someone , and i 'm -- i 'm just glad i was there for you . sonny : so that 's how you see what happened last night ? olivia : uh ... look , sonny , we do n't have to turn this into something it 's not . sonny : okay . olivia : now , i know you 're still grieving for connie . and so am i . we jumped into this -- this for all the reasons that i just said , so -- so we do n't have to make it mean something . sonny : but it did . alexis : well - played . really . i particularly liked the part about the sacrifice you made coming out of hiding after all those decades to donate bone marrow to your poor grandson . julian : mm . so , is there a point you 'd like to dispute ? alexis : i suppose , uh , it 's true , technically . julian : uh - huh . alexis : i got to hand it to you . you really slanted this in your favor . sonny 's gon na come out , tell everyone you 're a notorious mobster and you beat him to the punch and you splash it all over the front page and you come out smelling like a rose . julian : so , is that -- is that really why you 're here -- to tell me what 's in my own paper ? alexis : what other reason would there be ? julian : i do n't know . i thought it might have been about that kiss that we shared last night . so , am i right , alexis ? did you come back for more ? alexis : [ chuckles ] julian : ouch . did i strike some sort of a nerve ? alexis : no , actually . that felt really good . julian : oh , good . alexis : the reason i came here is because , whether i like it or not , you are now a part of my family , and i have no idea what i am supposed to do with that . julian : so , it 's a problem that sam suddenly has a father ? alexis : no . the problem is it 's you . she was already involved with someone in the mob . he did n't survive . i just ended a relationship with someone in the mob because i do n't like it ! julian : okay , okay . hold on now . i - i came public with my name and my history because i wanted to be honest , come clean about my past . that does n't make me a mobster . i told you . i - i 'm a changed man . alexis : well , your actions prove otherwise . julian : all those years of living as derek wells , i made my living legitimately as a businessman . and i was very successful at it . alexis : well , that 's super . you can print those protestations of innocence in your paper . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : i saw what i needed to see in the gallery . you know what ? i 've made a decision . you are not to go near sam or danny . julian : is n't that up to sam ? alexis : you 're not dragging her into a mob war . julian : okay , hold on now . i 'm not involved in any mob war . and let 's be honest . there is no proof that i 'm the one going after sonny . sonny : you 've been here every step of the way for me . you even sacrificed your own happiness when you stepped aside for connie . olivia : i really wanted you two to have your chance . sonny : you do n't think i know that ? you 've never turned your back on me , and you know how much loyalty means to me . you always , you know , wanted the best for me , even when -- when i did n't know myself , even when i fought you , and i fought you hard . [ laughs ] olivia : [ chuckling ] you 're not the easiest person to be around . but the dimples are a major compensating factor . sonny : you can joke about that all you want , but i would n't be here right now if it was n't for you . that 's the god 's honest truth . now , where this goes , i do n't know , but to say that it does n't mean anything -- that 's not true , 'cause i would n't be that way with you . i - i would n't . you mean more . and , by the way , um ... have -- have i told you how beautiful you are ? [ chuckling ] what ? how sexy you are ? 'cause if i have n't , then , you know , shame on me . olivia : well , i 'm glad you still think so . i got to get to court . sonny : yeah . i want to go . but , um ... just not yet . alexis : you 're actually going to stand there and deny that you had anything to do with those attacks against sonny ? julian : you choose what you want to believe , but i 'll tell you this -- i would n't let anyone or anything hurt you , sam , or danny . alexis : certainly not danny , 'cause he 's your insurance policy against -- what did sonny call it again ? oh , against accidents . julian : listen , alexis . i care about you . why would n't i ? now , we shared a lot together , and we did n't even know it . and i 'll tell you something . i 'm good at reading people , and when danny was sick and we were sitting there at the hospital worrying about him , there was something going on between us . it was -- it was almost instinctual . so , whatever drew us together in the past , it 's still there . only now it is more mature , like red wine ... ripe for the tasting . alexis : there may have been a connection between us . but when you lied by omission and purposely left out pertinent details about yourself , the wine soured . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have to go to court . [ door closes ] maxie : i know that i 'm kind of freaking out right now , but i have absolutely no control over the situation ... except for my dress , which i 'm starting to rethink . do you think that i have time to change ? felicia : no . no . and , as i told you , you look absolutely wonderful . but , you know , there 's no reason to worry about this . you have to calm down . maxie : but what if i lose ? what if ... i do n't get my baby back ? felicia : hopefully it wo n't come to that . but if it does , we 'll get through this together . ellie : i 'm sorry . did -- did you just say `` marry maxie `` ? spinelli : uh , yeah . um , diane posited the idea under the assumption that if maxie and i were married , it would give us the advantage . by presenting ourselves to the court as an official union , we might impress the judge with our commitment to providing our daughter with a stable family environment . ellie : oh . and ... what did you say to that ? spinelli : i said no . ellie : [ sighs ] spinelli : of course . i told diane , in no uncertain terms , that i could n't possibly do that , not in a million years . ellie : good . spinelli : marrying maxie under those circumstances would be a fraud . it would be an intentional deception and ... maxie and i shared a non - marriage years ago , and that was painful enough . no , if i ever walk down the aisle again ... it will be with you , because i love you . ellie : i really like that answer . spinelli : [ chuckles ] ellie : and i love you , too , damian . spinelli : as much as i 'd like to stay and bask in our reaffirmed love , i ... do need to get to the courthouse . ellie : yes , you do . good luck . i sincerely hope that today ends with you being one step closer to getting to raise your daughter . spinelli : [ sighs ] luke : the baby is maxie and spinelli 's ? lulu : biologically , yes , but she 's our daughter . maxie promised to give birth to a child for us , and she did . we could n't love her more if she was our own flesh and blood . dante : but if we want to keep her , we have to go to court . and we 're desperate for a babysitter , right ? [ chuckles ] luke : well , leave baby cupcakes with us . dante : yeah ? luke : uh , go do what you have to do . tracy : well , provided she 's portable . we have to go by the hospital and ... is it okay with you if we bring her with us ? lulu : so much for `` no catch . `` luke : oh , no . no . none whatsoever . lulu : well , if this hospital visit has something to do with my father 's recovery , then , of course , it 's okay with us . dante : we , uh , really appreciate it . lulu : you really have no idea how much . luke : well ... lulu : here , um ... luke : ... it 's a pleasure . come here , little one . hi ! come to grandpa . lulu : thank you . luke : oh ! tracy : oh , please . stop . just -- good luck . i always knew you were gon na be a wonderful mother , but you need to make sure that you get to keep that baby . luke : well , do n't worry about connie . i will teach her to play texas hold'em in the waiting room . dante : awesome . oh , yeah . and if you guys want to tell the police what you did n't want to tell the police , you know where to find me . luke : sure . [ chuckles ] scott : scott baldwin . julian : this is julian jerome . i need to see you . carly : i was n't really with derek wells any more than you were with diane . franco : yeah , i 'm just saying that ... it might be nice to hear that again . carly : i do n't want derek wells . i want you . i thought i made that clear last night . franco : mm , yeah . i know you only let me get with you 'cause , you know , i saved your son 's life . carly : [ laughs ] oh , god . well , yeah , of course , you know . that -- that is the only reason , you know ? this was n't just about gratitude . franco : [ laughs ] carly : why -- why are you trying to , like , you know , talk your way out of this , you know ? why are you trying to push me away after all that time you spent pursuing me ? i do n't get it . franco : [ sighs ] we get to be here , right ? we 're here . carly : yeah . franco : yeah . as soon as you go out there , carly , the whole world 's gon na tell you that you should just dump me and run for the hills . carly : i know . but you know what ? i 've never really cared what people think . i do n't waste my time . and i decided to be with you , and i want to be with you . and if someone does n't like it , they can go to hell . so , will you please stop trying to push me away ? franco : i wanted you more than i ever wanted anything in my whole life . and now that you 're here , i 'm scared i 'm gon na lose you . carly : you 're not gon na lose me . i 'm right here . franco : where you going ? carly : i 'm gon na take a shower and , um ... you should join me . and then i 'm gon na tell everybody to go to hell and mind their own business . [ knock on door ] franco : i did n't order those . man : they 're for mrs. jacks . franco : dude . they 're dead . really ? dead roses ? tracy : excuse me , miss trout ? ellie : yes , can i -- mr. spencer ! you 're alive ! luke : so it would appear . ellie : despite the lethal amount of polonium in your bloodstream , it 's -- well , it 's remarkable . tracy : uh , that 's why we 're here . ellie : wait a minute . where did you get that baby ? luke : on ebay . the bidding war was brutal . ellie : [ chuckles ] that 's damian 's baby . why do you two have damian 's baby ? spinelli : i apologize in advance should my speech start to ramble . i 'm ... more than a tad bit nervous , i must confess . how are you ? maxie : nervous does n't even begin to cover it . dante : come on . hey , alexis . lulu : hi . sorry . we had babysitting issues . alexis : it 's not a problem . dante : anything we need to go over before we , uh , get into this ? alexis : yeah . you sure you want to go through with this ? because i can almost guarantee it 's not gon na be pleasant . lulu : we 're ready . i mean , i know it 's gon na be tough , but we 'll do whatever we have to do to keep our little girl , right ? dante : yeah . right . hey . wh - what are -- i did n't think you were coming today . sonny : you 're fighting for your kid . where else would i be ? dante : well , i read the papers . you do n't have to be here , you know ? sonny : no , look , as far as julian , you let me take care of all that . you do what you need to do , okay ? scott : quite a revelation from last night , mr. jerome . julian : yeah . sorry i had to bump your election victory off the front page of the news . a bigger story came up . [ chuckles ] but congratulations none the less . it was an impressive victory . scott : thank you . julian : you know , it was quite an interesting election , would n't you say ? d.a . lazaro had to drop out of the race on the day of the vote . i mean , after all those months of campaigning ... scott : interesting , maybe . but not too surprising -- at least , not to you . julian : why would you say that ? scott : 'cause you 're the one that gave me that recording of lazaro conspiring with corinthos . julian : you think i had something to do with , uh , some recording ? scott : yeah . you had morgan corinthos deliver it to me . you practically handed me the da 's office . lazaro had no choice but to resign . julian : you ... are a smart man , mr. baldwin . scott : i 'd like to think so . smart enough to know that you did n't do this out of the kindness of your heart . so , mr. jerome , what is it that you want ? all rise . this courtroom is now in session . the honorable judge david walters presiding . judge walters : be seated . this is a custody hearing to determine permanent legal custody of the child constanza louise falconeri . current custodial parents are lesley lu spencer falconeri and dante falconeri , who are petitioning for parental rights and legal custody of the child in question . a previous request for a court order to hand over the child to maximiliana jones and damian spinelli was denied . have i got it right so far ? diane : yes , your honor . alexis : yes , your honor . judge walters : i 've reviewed this case , and as i understand it , the falconeris contracted with miss jones to be a gestational surrogate for a child they conceived through in vitro fertilization . through a series of circumstances , the baby in question is not , in fact , one they conceived through ivf , but , rather , is the biological child of the respondent , miss jones , and mr. spinelli . though the contract the falconeris entered into with miss jones was for a different child , they are suing for parental rights for this child . on what grounds , miss davis ? alexis : on the grounds that the biological mother is unfit to raise the child . judge walters : do you have witnesses to support this contention ? alexis : yes , i do , your honor . i 'd like to call my first witness , elizabeth webber , to the stand . alexis : miss webber , are you acquainted with the respondent , maximiliana jones ? elizabeth : yes . we 've known each other for years . alexis : are you friends ? elizabeth : no . i would n't exactly say that . alexis : why not ? elizabeth : maxie had an affair with my husband , lucky spencer . luke : this is my daughter 's child . ellie : look , i do n't question the legitimacy of adoptive parents , but the fact remains -- this child is the offspring of damian and maxie . tracy : and why is that , exactly ? because maxie lied , deceived , and defrauded lulu and dante , and from what we heard , you did your best to cover it up , as well . ellie : which is something i sincerely regret . but i did end up telling him the truth -- that she is his daughter . and while i feel terrible for dante and lulu , this little girl belongs with her biological parents . tracy : well , we 'll just have to see what the judge says about that after he gets an earful of what maxie did . alexis : miss webber , that 's not the end of your story , is it ? elizabeth : no . at the time , my husband was fighting a drug addiction , and maxie knew that if he had stopped using and was in his right mind , that he would end things with her , so she would steal drugs from the hospital and give them to him to keep him using , until i caught her . diane : your honor , i - i think we get the point . alexis : well , i have n't made my point yet . i 'm not finished . judge walters : continue , counselor . alexis : and was that the end of miss jones ' machinations ? elizabeth : no . eventually , my husband got sober and broke things off with maxie , but she did n't take it very well . she told him she was pregnant with his baby . alexis : and was she , in fact , pregnant ? elizabeth : no . but she went around town trying to get pregnant . diane : really , your honor ? alexis : still not finished . judge walters : miss miller , this is not an open forum . your objection has been overruled . keep your comments to yourself . alexis : what happened then , elizabeth ? elizabeth : when maxie could n't get pregnant , she threw herself down a flight of stairs to fake a miscarriage . alexis : now i 'm finished . no more questions . maxie : i am so sorry . julian : the public has a right to know that d.a . lazaro was in the pocket of a -- of a known mobster . scott : so now you want me in your pocket ? is that the idea ? julian : why would i need you in my pocket ? i 'm a legitimate businessman . scott : oh , yeah ? i got some swampland in florida you might be interested in , then . julian : [ laughs ] okay , i know . i know . i know . you -- you have an issue with my paper , so i 'll tell you what i 'm gon na do . i 'm gon na make it up to you for dropping your victory off the front page of the paper . scott : not necessary . julian : of course , it is . of course it is . we 'll -- we 'll do a huge spread about you and your campaign , and it would n't be complete without including a , uh , lovely picture of your ex - wife , lucy coe . i mean , she was on the campaign trail with you , was n't she ? working tirelessly to get you elected ? scott : you noticed that , huh ? julian : well , i 'm a newspaperman . [ chuckling ] you know , it 's my job . [ laughing ] funny -- funny coincidence about you and your ex - wife . she used to be involved with my dad . oh , yeah , yeah . they were very tight . he was quite taken with her . in fact ... she was responsible for his death . franco : hey . who sent these ? read the card . franco : `` dearest carly , stay the hell away from my son , or else . hugs , heather webber . `` oh , my ... carly : hey ! i thought you were gon na join me , huh ? what the hell are those ? franco : uh ... roses . carly : uh , yeah , i - i can see that . um ... they 're dead . chuckles ] that 's a little creepy . who are they for ? franco : they 're for you . carly : me ? why ? who sent them ? franco : they 're from me . carly : you got me dead flowers ? why ? franco : uh ... it -- it 's just a misunderstanding . a misunderstanding florist . believe me , some florists ' heads are gon na roll . carly : okay , i - i 've dealt with many problems from florists before , but they 've never sent dead flowers . i mean , that 's a little weird . franco : yeah , it is . it 's really weird . i - i 'm sorry . i do n't know what to say . i just wanted to get you something . carly : you do n't have to buy me flowers . race you back to bed . i 'm waiting ! [ laughs ] franco : [ chuckles ] i can see that . you 're beautiful . carly : i 'm also the winner . i challenged you to a race , and you lost . franco : uh , yes , i did . carly : mm - hmm . franco : so ... what ? are you expecting a prize ? carly : i want a prize . franco : you want a prize ? carly : i want a prize . luke : spanky , maybe we should put the brakes on this baby talk until we do what we came here to do . ellie : right . please tell me -- how are you still alive ? luke : i found an alternative to chelation therapy . we 're actually here to make sure that it worked . tracy : can you do a blood draw ? lulu : i ca n't believe that the judge would give maxie custody after hearing all of that . dante : i just know i would n't want to be maxie right now . lulu : you do n't think that i like this , do you ? i do n't . this is the only way that we can keep our baby , dante . maxie is the one who set this all in motion . alexis : all right . i need to know how much farther you want to push this . lulu : as far as we have to . dante : what does that mean ? what else are you gon na bring up ? lulu : well , whatever ... she needs to to make sure that connie stays with us . maxie : i am so sorry you had to hear all of that . i mean , i know we 've already been through the whole lucky mess already , but to have to hear it in court ... even i ca n't believe i did all of that . oh , god . i do n't even want to think about who they 're gon na call next . bailiff : all rise . judge walters : be seated . miss davis , are the petitioners ready to proceed with their next witness ? alexis : yes , your honor . i 'd like to call miss jones to the stand , please . diane : do n't panic . alexis is just calling you a little earlier than we anticipated , but we have prepared for this . maxie : i do n't feel prepared . who knows what she 's gon na ask me ? lulu has probably told her every terrible thing i 've ever done . diane : maxie , stay calm . just answer the questions as simply as possible . olivia : [ sighs ] poor kid . what is alexis gon na hit her with now ? sonny : no one said it was gon na be easy . olivia : yeah . of course i want dante and lulu to win . they love connie so much , and they deserve to keep her , but at what cost ? sonny : alexis has no choice but to push , okay ? if the judge takes the baby away from our kids , they are gon na be heartbroken . olivia : and so are we . julian : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . a long time ago , lucy , your ex , broke my father 's heart . mm - hmm . a fact which was directly responsible for his death . now , any other kind of man would want to [ growls ] you know , avenge his father 's death -- you know , a man like , uh , sonny corinthos . but me ? ah , you know , all that stuff does n't matter . it 's in the past , you know ? it 's -- it 's what happens now ... that matters . anyway ...

[ scene_break ] [ keys jingling ] scott : commissioner ... are lavery and corinthos still locked up downstairs , or did you screw that up , too , and they escaped ? anna : yes , they 're both downstairs , along with your ex heather . unfortunately , her violent accomplice is still at large . did you know your son went on a terror spree yesterday because of you ? [ scene_break ] nina : you really thought of everything , franco . i - i would n't have remembered to get the supplies from the motel . i would n't have remembered something like that . smart uncle franco . she was ravenous , was n't she ? you 're not even a day old , and you 've already been in a boat and traveled the harsh countryside of canada . you 've been all over . how long have you had this place ? franco : uh ... well , i 'll tell you a story . once upon a time , there was a brutal , soulless killer named jason morgan , and he shot me once and left me for dead in a town called beecher 's corners . nina : i saw that when i googled you . franco : i needed someplace to recover that was quiet and private , and this place is both of those things . nina : must have been lonely . franco : it was . i never thought i 'd be here with a woman and a baby . nina : i 'm so glad that you could spend time with us . um ... but ... now it 's silas ' turn . he needs to see his daughter . i have to call him . franco : no . no phone calls . nina : why ? silas must be worried sick . i have to call him . franco : what 's wrong with you ? no . nina : why `` no `` ? franco : it 's not a good idea . nina : why ? you know , my mom said that , too , and i insisted and she pretended to call him . silas must be worried sick . he 's this child 's father . franco : nina , stop it , okay ? ! this is -- silas is not her father . [ scene_break ] kiki : michael , i know that you are mad at me , okay ? but i swear i never , ever meant to hurt you . please do n't shut me out . i love you . silas : kiki . hey . what -- what -- okay . [ scene_break ] rosalie : mm . michael : [ sighs ] morning . rosalie : oh , my god . i need to get out of here . michael : why ? rosalie : this was a gigantic mistake . i 'm sure you think so , too . michael : why would i think that ? rosalie : for starters , you have a girlfriend . michael : no , i do n't -- not anymore . i do n't have anyone anymore . [ scene_break ] sonny : what happened with the baby ? did they find her ? julian : the cops tracked nina , her mother , and the baby to a motel outside of town . ava : well , then , they have her . they found my daughter . [ scene_break ] alexis : detective west got a tip on nina 's location . he and the commissioner just missed nina and the baby . sonny : they 're gone ? alexis : yes , but nina 's mother was there . she was injured , and they 're hoping that they can get some information when she regains consciousness . [ scene_break ] morgan : are you okay ? by the way , what franco did -- sick son of a bitch . carly : yeah , he 's a sick son of a bitch . and i am so sorry -- deeply sorry -- that i ignored your feelings and michael 's feelings and josslyn 's feelings and i insisted on being with him . morgan , i did many things wrong , and i do n't even know where to start . morgan : mom , he lied to you , okay ? he hid who he really was . i know how that works . carly : [ laughs ] if you 're referring to ava , there 's a big difference here . you 're too young to know better . morgan : well ... carly : any word on the baby ? morgan : no , not yet . i 'm hoping the answer 's in there . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : i did n't enjoy betraying my sister , but i know you want to find nina and that child . what you want is important to me . i may not be the mother of your dreams , nathan -- far from it , yes -- but i do care about you . i gave you up when you were the same age as the infant nina took . it was ... the most difficult thing i have ever done . and i missed you . i missed you so much . nathan : [ sighs softly ] dr. obrecht : i hope magda will be good to you and tell you where nina went . madeline : james ? where am i ? dr. obrecht : at general hospital . madeline : james . nathan : we found you at the rendezvous motel . you were on the floor . you 'd been knocked unconscious . and there was no sign of nina or the baby . madeline : what 's this ? why ? nathan : because you helped nina kidnap ava jerome 's baby . [ scene_break ] ava : it 's been all night . how is it possible that the cops do n't have any leads ? you know what ? would you find my clothes ? because i 'm gon na find my daughter myself . i 'll do it -- julian : ava , ava , sweetheart , you 're in no shape to go anywhere . ava : it does n't matter . i have to . no one knows where that lunatic took my daughter ! julian : okay , there is one possibility . there 's someone who might know where she went . [ scene_break ] nina : of course ... silas is this child 's father . franco : no , nina . silas is not this child 's father . you are not the child 's mother . will you cut it out ? this is ava 's baby . i know that , all right ? you took ava 's baby . that 's why the cops were looking for you . i did n't want them to find you -- okay ? -- because then they 'll put you in jail for kidnapping . but you can not tell silas where we are , because he will tell the cops , and you 're not the only one that 's gon na get arrested , nina . they 'll arrest me , too . do you understand that ? [ scene_break ] silas : did something happen to your mom 's baby ? kiki : no , no . julian 's in there with her . i just -- uh , i needed to take a break . silas : obviously , you 're upset . what 's going on ? kiki : i think i just lost michael forever . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i understand that you 're angry , but you should n't write kiki off . michael : why not ? rosalie : once the -- the smoke clears , you 'll be able to see clearly , and you 're gon na forgive her . michael : i will never forgive kiki . rosalie : `` never `` is a really long time . michael : kiki has done nothing but lie to me ... each lie worse than the last . first she lied to cover for franco . then she lied about my par -- sonny and carly sleeping together . why , i have no idea . then she lied to cover for her mother , and , worst of all , she lied about who really killed my father . rosalie : did n't you say that she was just looking out for you ? michael : yeah . i 'm sure that 's what kiki 's been telling herself . but the bottom line is she 's deciding what i am capable of dealing with -- what i can and can not know . you know what ? i would hate that under any circumstances , but the truth about my father 's murder was more important to me than anything , and she knew that . so ... no , there 's no coming back from that . rosalie : i do n't want you to do anything you 'll regret . i understand , uh [ clears throat ] it 's a little late for that , considering the circumstances , but -- michael : look , i - i regret being willfully blind ... and i regret trusting the wrong people for too long , but ... you are not part of any of those regrets . rosalie : they 're your family . michael : it does n't matter . there 's no coming back for any of them -- not my mom , not kiki , not my so - called father , not for morgan . they are all nothing to me now -- nothing . [ scene_break ] carly : thank you so much for being there for michael . i mean , really . dante told me that you stopped michael from killing your father . morgan : uh , yeah . i 've just never seen michael like that . he was beyond angry . he had a gun pointed right at dad . he was in control , but -- carly : when i think about what could have happened to michael and your dad -- i - i know that you do n't always get along with sonny , but i will never be able to thank you for saving his life . morgan : so what -- so he can spend the rest of it in prison ? [ scene_break ] sonny : alexis , you got to get me out of here . you know how it is for me in here . just get me arraigned . i 'll post bail , do whatever i got to do . i got to search for this baby . alexis : sonny , i 'm not here to represent you . i 'm here to represent duke . [ scene_break ] anna : you had your opportunity yesterday , scott . you could have detained franco after the wedding . instead , you let him waltz on out of there , and he went and terrorized carly and shawn and jordan , not to mention even his own mother . scott : you expect me to believe that you have any concern for heather ? anna : no , i do n't , but i 'm just saying that she was one of his victims , too . did you know that he left carly with a parting gift ? on this recording , he threatens her , her 9-year - old daughter . he says that he 's gon na come back to settle the score and , quote , she will be looking over her shoulder for the rest of her life , never having a moment 's peace , `` and then , you know , he went on from here . scott : i had no idea that he was threatening her , let alone her daughter . anna : well , you gave him the opportunity to do exactly that . you know , franco even had time to go to carly 's place and pick up his belongings . can you imagine that ? he 's eluded our apb . i do n't suppose you know where he is , do you ? scott : i do . [ scene_break ] duke : alexis , i appreciate your offering to represent me , but , uh , unfortunately , i 'm afraid i can not afford you . alexis : my retainer 's already been paid for . duke : well , who paid it ? did anna do that ? alexis : no . i 'm afraid not . duke : that was too much to hope for . then who ? alexis : lucy coe . duke : well , that 's a surprise . well , that 's very generous of her , but i - i think you should help sonny . he needs your help more than i do . sonny : thank you , duke . alexis : sonny , i ca n't represent you . you fired me , remember -- because of my involvement with julian ? sonny : alexis , we will work something out . i 'm in trouble right now . i need you . [ scene_break ] carly : you know how much your father hates being locked up , but losing michael is even worse than prison for him -- and me . morgan : i know , but , i mean , that 's why franco did it , right ? he did it to torture you . carly : yeah . he did it to punish me for cheating on him . i mean , if only franco would have lashed out at me , i would have deserved it . he attacked me through michael . i mean , your brother had to see that hateful video , and then he heard sonny admit to shooting aj , and he heard me say that i covered it up , and then he looked at me , and he said that i was dead to him . god . all those people who kept trying to take michael away from me , and now i lose him for something i did . morgan : [ sighs ] look , mom ... i know it 's all -- it 's all really messed up . carly : yeah , it 's really messed up , and it 's really bad , and i know you were there for michael last night , but you 're gon na have to continue to be there for him . he needs you and kiki now that he 's shut us out . morgan : yeah , that 's not gon na happen . carly : what do you mean , that 's not gon na happen ? morgan : [ sighs ] well , uh , kiki and i knew what dad did , too . [ scene_break ] silas : you told me you 'd been confiding in morgan . you felt bad about it 'cause you 'd been keeping things from michael . i did n't realize you were talking about sonny corinthos killing aj quartermaine . kiki : michael 's furious . i do n't think he 's ever gon na forgive me . silas : you try calling him ? kiki : all my calls go straight to voicemail . he wo n't talk to me , he wo n't let me explain , and i do n't know where he is and i do n't know what i am supposed to do . silas : i 'll tell you what you 're gon na do -- you 're gon na fight for him . kiki : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] michael : thanks for last night . i - i needed to forget . you -- you helped me do that . rosalie : i 'm sorry for everything you 're going through . michael : no , do n't be sorry . it 's about time i face the truth about a lot of things . rosalie : i should , uh , let you do that . michael : what do you mean ? rosalie : it means i need to get out of your way so that you can sort all this out . michael : rosie , you 're the only person i want to talk to . rosalie : you do n't mean that . michael : when you refused to break me and kiki up , even after nina clay blackmailed you -- rosalie : and yet here i am in your bed after all . michael : yeah , but you do n't have an ulterior motive . rosalie : i kind of did . last night when you said you wanted to forget , i did , too . michael : whatever it is , you can tell me . rosalie : [ sighs ] you have enough going on . michael : look , you helped me . i want to help you , even if all i can do is listen . rosalie : the thing is ... this has been great . you 've been great . i like you . but i 'm afraid that if i tell you , you 're not gon na like me very much . michael : try me . rosalie : [ sighs ] michael : rosalie , you can tell me . rosalie : okay . um ... i did cave to nina . i gave her some information . michael : about ? rosalie : it 's my fault that ava jerome 's baby is missing . [ scene_break ] ava : madeline ? she is n't with nina ? julian : not anymore . she 's actually in the hospital , ava . detective west said that as soon as she 's able to talk -- what -- what -- what are you doing ? whoa ! whoa ! ava : i have to go choke the truth out of that witch ! [ scene_break ] madeline : why would i help nina kidnap a baby ? nathan : mother , stop it . ava jerome told us that nina promised you money , and i know how bad -- madeline : ava jerome is a criminal . you ca n't believe anything she says . look ... nina threatened me . i had to go along . otherwise , she would have killed me . my god . look at what she did to me . and i tried to warn you . liesl , tell him . i called you and told you our location . dr. obrecht : which i immediately gave to my son . nathan : why would n't you just call the police ? madeline : i was afraid of what she 'd do if she found out . when she did check my phone and saw that i called liesl instead of silas , she tried to kill me . she would have if someone had n't stopped her . nathan : who ? madeline : [ sighs ] i was barely conscious . nathan : look , if you are withholding information in some attempt to get some plea , look , there is no time , okay ? nina 's out there , okay ? she 's mentally unstable . she 's got a child with her . she would never do anything to endanger a child if she was of right mind . madeline : i know . nathan : please do this for me . just tell me . do it because the man you raised is asking you . who was with nina ? madeline : it was franco . [ scene_break ] nina : why would you go to jail ? what did you do ? franco : i abducted carly and three other people and held them at gunpoint and threatened to maybe blow them up . nina : that 's what you meant when we were on the phone , and you said that your wedding was eventful ? franco : the wedding was eventful . nina : oh , good . [ both chuckle ] franco : i played the tape of sonny and carly . nina : oh , where they were talking about murder ? franco : i took michael away from them . sonny 's probably on his way to jail . but on the downside , i probably made my father really happy . [ scene_break ] scott : [ sighs ] `` dear pops , hanging with you the night before my wedding meant a lot to me -- the steaks , the booze , you . it made me wish i was n't gon na do what i had planned to do , but i could n't stop myself . we both know we 're never gon na be real father and son . but for just that night , it almost felt like we could be . thanks for the memory . your son , franco . `` [ sighs ] i guess you were right about him all along . anna : scott , i 'm gon na need a warrant for his arrest .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i ca n't help you , sonny . i 've already been hired to represent duke . it would be conflict of interest . sonny : alexis , that baby girl -- this lunatic kidnapped her . you know what that 's about with kristina . you just got to get me out of here , okay ? get me through the arraignment and i 'll just -- i 'll get another lawyer to help me out . alexis : call diane . guard ! i need to get mr. lavery upstairs , please . sonny , call diane -- either that or you 're on your own . [ scene_break ] carly : ava told you that your father shot aj ? morgan : yeah . she wanted us to hide her from him . carly : did she bother to tell you that she 's the one who gunned down connie ? morgan : no . dad told me that when he wanted me to tell him where ava was . carly : i 'm sorry . i am so sorry that we dragged you into this mess . morgan , we 've made so many mistakes -- we have -- and i 'm so grateful i did n't lose you along with michael . morgan : no . i 'm still here with you , mom . carly : i 'm so grateful to have you . morgan : what about mikey ? carly : i do n't know . i mean , without us and without you and kiki to turn to , i - i do n't know who he has . [ scene_break ] michael : nina clay and her mother took the baby . how is that your fault ? rosalie : i told her where ava jerome was hiding . morgan and kiki were hiding ava at the brownstone , and i kind of stumbled in on them there . nina 's horrible mother put the squeeze on me that day at kelly 's . michael : yeah . no , i remember . she -- she thought i was a waiter . rosalie : yeah . a real charming lady , right ? michael : i remember thinking that she was somehow pressuring you . rosalie : and i caved . i told them where ava was hiding to save myself . michael : because they were holding something over you -- that thing from the past . rosalie : before i ran in to you at the floating rib , detective west forced me to tell him what i had done . he tore me apart , and he had every right . because of me , that little baby has been kidnapped by the craziest lady that i have ever met . oh , my god . ms. jerome must be freaking out . i feel so bad for her . michael : trust me -- ava does n't deserve anyone 's sympathy . she murdered an innocent woman -- connie falconeri -- and blamed it on my father . she framed him . [ inhales deeply ] then he was arrested and put on trial . they did n't convict him , but he was haunted by it . and it ruined what was left of his life . and , uh ... i want to make sure i clear his name . rosalie : on second thought , ava sounds just as bad as nina -- maybe worse . michael : that baby is either my sister or my niece , and it sounds like she was born into a nightmare ... caught between ava and nina clay . [ scene_break ] nina : take that back , please . take that back ... please . you have to believe that this is my daughter . please , please , please take it back . please . i do n't know what i 'll do if you do n't take it back . please take it back . franco : i take it back . it was a mistake . it was just a stupid mistake . i 'm really sorry . of course , i know that this is your daughter . nina : you really believe that ? franco : i do .

[ scene_break ] nina : i really do have to get ahold of silas . listen , i can meet him somewhere . i wo n't tell him i 'm with you . i - i do n't want to get you in trouble . franco : no , no , no . it 's not -- it 's not just about that . look , i do n't want any trouble for you . nina : you said that you knew that i did n't kidnap -- franco : no , no . not -- not that . what you did to your mother . [ scene_break ] nathan : franco came in to your motel room and took nina and the baby ? how did he even know that she was there ? franco : you said you know where she is . dr. obrecht : yes -- the rendezvous motel , room 106 . dr. obrecht : i know that franco and nina were close . she did art therapy with him . perhaps she contacted him . madeline : thank god he arrived when he did . nina was spiraling out of control . she 'd lost all touch of reality when franco arrived . nathan : did he say anything about where they might be going ? madeline : no . he did n't say anything . i 'm sorry . i wish i could help you more . but i - i ca n't .

[ scene_break ] franco : nina , when i walked in to that motel room , your mom was on the floor in a puddle of blood , because you clobbered her with a lamp . nina : she tricked me into thinking that she called silas . i even thought he was there . it was amazing . it was magical . he loved the baby . he adored her . hi , baby . he was n't there at all . i do n't -- franco : he was n't there . nina : sometimes i - i 'm out of control . franco : yeah . me , too . nina : my mom does n't understand me , either . franco : no . nina : no . franco : and the police wo n't understand . they 'll just arrest you for assault . nina : yeah , but that 's not true because silas -- here -- hates my mother , and he 'd never let the police do that , so i can call him . franco : nina , stop . give me the phone . do n't -- do n't call silas . if you call silas -- his phone is probably tapped . the police will show up here . and ... where would -- where would your beautiful baby be without her mother ? [ scene_break ] silas : do n't make the mistakes that i made . if i had to do it all over again , i 'd have moved mountains to get sam back . go find michael . kiki : okay , but my mom is here . silas : i know , and i 'll be here . and your uncle 's in there with her right now and morgan 's around . she has plenty of support here . kiki : i know , but i 'm her daughter . i should be here for her . silas : i think you can probably sneak away for a little bit . you should go find michael , you know , and deal with this thing . move mountains if you have to . [ scene_break ] rosalie : poor little baby girl . michael : you know , uh , being kidnapped by nina is the least of her problems . her mother is a murderer , and so is her father . do you know sonny was gon na shoot ava when i walked in ? rosalie : you told me that you were about to kill your father . you did n't say anything about somebody else getting shot . michael : no , sonny was gon na shoot ava point - blank . rosalie : and you stopped him ? michael : only because i wanted to kill sonny , and she was a distraction . do you hear me ? do you know how -- how -- how sad that is ? i mean , a baby girl is born into this world , and her mother and her father lie and kill the way most people breathe . rosalie : morgan could still be the father . michael : oh , morgan 's a baby himself . he 's a spineless tool who ca n't take responsibility for anything . i just -- [ sighs ] i pray that when that baby 's found , they give her to some distant relative who will love her -- you know , teach her the difference between right and wrong . rosalie : i wish i had a better grasp on what 's right and wrong . i never would have done what i did . michael : look , all we can do is try and forget . and we did a pretty good job of that last night . what do you say we try and make each other feel a little better ? [ scene_break ] morgan : that bastard helped nina get away and now franco has the baby ? carly : it never stops with him ! nathan : i know you 've had a hard time the last 24 hours , ms. jacks , but you know franco better than any of us . do you have any idea where he might have gone ? carly : i have no idea ! i mean , he was basically homeless before i met him . hey ! do you know what franco 's done now ? he helped nina clay escape with a baby . scott : why would he do that ? carly : why would franco help a madwoman kidnap a baby ? gee , i do n't know , scott -- because he 's bored ? because he needed an encore after annihilating my family ? who knows ? ! hell , he 's kidnapped children before ! he 's threatened children ! he threatened josslyn last night ! he 's an evil freak , and you did nothing to stop him ! scott : i will find him . i 've issued a warrant for his arrest -- and yours . officer , read her her rights . morgan : hey , what -- what ? what are you doing ? carly : no , it 's okay . it 's all right . officer : you have the right to remain silent . if you give up that right , anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . you have a right to an attorney . if you can not afford one , one will be appointed to you free of charge . carly : do not worry about me , okay ? i do n't want you worrying about me at all . you need to find that baby . [ scene_break ] ava : would you please convince my brother to let me leave ? i know that i can convince madeline to tell me where my daughter is . silas : i 'm afraid i have to agree with him on this one . [ scene_break ] morgan : i 'm here . i 'm right here with you . madeline told us something . we got some news . it 's not much , but it 's a place to start . [ scene_break ] madeline : liesl , thank you for letting james know where to find nina . dr. obrecht : you did n't leave that message so that the police would know where nina was hiding . you called me because you needed nina to believe that you were calling silas . otherwise , she was n't going to give you the money . you lied to my son . madeline : look at the pot calling the kettle black . you lied to james , too . [ scene_break ] nathan : commissioner . anna : yeah ? nathan : my mother told me how nina got away with the baby and with whom . [ scene_break ] franco : you understand -- right -- why you ca n't call silas ? this beautiful baby needs a mother . she 'd be all alone if you went to prison . nina : oh , you 're right . you 're right . i ca n't -- i ca n't do that . franco : and this might not matter to you at all , but i do n't want to go prison , either . nina : it matters to me . of course , it matters to me . what are we supposed to do ? what do we do ? [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : in what parallel universe did i lie to my son ? madeline : you consider franco a rock star . you 're disgustingly flirting with him . dr. obrecht : you lack the taste to admire his genius , magda . madeline : you did more than admire his genius , liesl . there 's only one way he would have known that nina was in that motel -- from you . you told franco . [ scene_break ] franco : look , we 're here . we 're safe . i do n't know what 's next . i - i knew i wanted to get you out of harm 's way , but i did n't think anything through beyond that . but i will . look , please -- give me the phone , and no more talk about calling silas , all right ? i 'll come up with a plan . nina : how much time do you need ? franco : yeah . give me a little bit of time and give me the phone and , uh , all we have to do is stay one step ahead of the police . [ scene_break ] anna : franco was involved with the kidnapping , as well ? nathan : looks that way . alexis : i 'm sure this is the last thing that you want to hear from your defense attorney , but the evidence against you is overwhelming . you provided a false alibi to sonny , and you reiterated that lie to the commissioner . duke : i 've lied to anna over and over again . i fully expect to go to jail . alexis : not necessarily . there is a way out . duke : there is ? how ? alexis : you 'll have to roll over on sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : have you found the baby ? scott : no , we have n't . but i did bring you some company , though . she 's gon na be in that cage .

[ keys jingle , doorknob rattles ] [ next_on ] liesl : ( to jason and elizabeth ) what are you still doing in my hospital ? kiki : ( to michael and rosalie ) what the hell are you doing ? michael : what does it look like ? nikolas : ( to agent sloane ) can i help you ? agent sloane : i certainly hope so . lucy : ( to anna ) i need to see duke . duke : i will not turn on sonny . carly : i love you , sonny . sonny : i know . me , too .

michael ignores kiki 's calls . silas tells kiki to fight for michael . morgan tells carly that michael has written kiki and him out of his life because they also knew what sonny did . carly worries that michael does n't have anyone left to turn to . rosalie feels guilty when she wakes up in michael 's bed . he tells her not to worry about it because he does n't have a girlfriend anymore . rosalie tells michael that it is her fault that nina took ava 's baby , because madeline blackmailed her into revealing ava 's location . michael tells rosalie that ava does n't deserve anyone 's sympathy because she murdered an innocent woman and blamed aj for it , ruining his life . he says he hopes that when the baby is found , she goes to be raised by some distant relative that has a grasp on right and wrong . kiki lets herself into michael 's apartment with her key and sees michael and rosalie in bed together .

anna : oh , is there a problem , da hornsby ? paul : insubordinate employees . [ door slams ] paul : why are you pursuing this ? why insist on re - opening the corinthos investigation , hmm ? the case is closed . everyone believes that carlos rivera shot sonny . anna : but we both know that 's impossible . paul : because we both know that you killed rivera months before sonny took that bullet . anna : and you arranged for some poor man 's body to be misidentified as carlos so that you could -- paul : so you could be protected from prosecution . anna : no . so you could come in here and start your tenure as the da with a big , old feather in your cap . and the fact remains that it was ava who named carlos as the shooter . and i believe that she 's protecting herself or her brother . paul : drop this case , anna . [ scene_break ] emma : spencer , look . this one 's beautiful . spencer : not as beautiful as you . emma : spencer , mrs. gunnels assigned us to make a thanksgiving tree together . that 's the reason we 're here . we are working on a school project , not getting married like cameron 's mom and jake doe or my dad and sam . spencer : do n't you know ? emma : what ? spencer : hayden told me all about it . she said it was very dramatic . just as jake doe was about to marry my aunt elizabeth , it was revealed that he 's really jason morgan . emma : danny 's father ? spencer : sam 's husband is still alive . someone kidnapped him and made everyone think that he was dead . but he was n't . emma : so the wedding did n't happen ? spencer : no . emma : sam 's still married to her first husband ? spencer : i think so . emma : does that mean sam is n't going to marry my dad ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : carly was instrumental in uncovering the truth . not surprising , considering she was always in jason 's business . apparently , she had a dna test run ... laura : [ scoffs ] nikolas : ... proving that jake is jason . laura : oh , my god . nikolas : they both showed up at the church , and jason announced his identity . laura : wow . i was never very close to carly , and that 's why . that is exactly what she would do . nikolas : perhaps . anyway , all hell broke loose , and you got your wish . jason and elizabeth did n't get married . laura : and that 's the good news . nikolas : [ chuckles ] not a typical response to two people who love each other having to cancel their wedding . laura : nikolas , of course i 'm sorry about the way that it happened , but i 'm not sorry that the truth came out . starting a marriage with that huge of a lie hanging in the air between the two of them , that -- that can only end badly . did elizabeth confess to her part of the cover - up ? elizabeth : no , laura , i did not . and neither did nikolas . laura : so then the lie is n't over . you two just stood in the church , and you pretended to be shocked and surprised when the truth came out ? and you did the same ? [ scoffs ] well , you two must have been acting your little hearts out . hayden : they were n't the only ones . where 's my academy award ? [ scene_break ] jason : [ chuckles ] feels weird doing this now . sam : no , not at all . jason : okay , i 'm gon na go . sam : [ voice breaking ] no , jason , do n't go . [ sniffles ] i never thought i would feel your hand in mine again . but it 's still there -- the feeling that i have felt for so long , the feeling of my husband , the man that i loved so much .

[ cell phone rings ] [ scene_break ] patrick : robin ? hey , uh , thank you for getting back to me so quickly . robin : well , yeah , you said it was urgent . is -- is emma okay ? patrick : yeah , no , no , no . emma 's fine . i 'm sorry . i should have told you that . robin : okay . what 's going on ? patrick : well , it 's about jason . robin : what about jason ? patrick : i do n't know how else to tell you this , but ... jason 's alive . robin , you there ? robin : uh ... yeah . yes , patrick . i 'm here . patrick : yeah , i wanted to tell you as soon as i found out . i know you were devastated when you could n't save him , but ... i do n't know , as crazy as it sounds , jason 's alive , and he 's back in port charles . robin : [ sighs ] oh , my god . patrick , there 's so much that you do n't know . [ scene_break ] anna : i mean , sonny 's shooter 's still out there . you know , there 's every possibility they would come back and try and finish the job . paul : why do you care ? sonny corinthos is a scourge to this community . anna : yeah , and so is the hit man that 's still out there that we 're not going after . paul : i prefer to see it as freeing up resources to help protect the law- abiding citizens of port charles . anna : i see . i see . yeah . so , what ? we only pursue justice for those we deem worthy ? is that -- paul : do n't twist my words around . anna : even if that were a sound policy , sonny is still a target . and that mean anyone around him is in danger . and we do n't want mob violence to run unchecked in this city , do we ? is n't that right , da hornsby ? paul : apparently you did n't hear me the first time around . drop this case , anna . anna : something was going on with you and ava the other day . are you protecting her ? or yourself ? paul : maybe you should think about doing some safeguarding of your own . [ scene_break ] emma : no wonder daddy was so quiet this morning on the way to school . and sam was n't even around for breakfast . spencer : he did n't tell you anything ? emma : when i asked him about aunt elizabeth 's wedding , all he said was that something confusing happened , that he would try to explain it to me later . spencer : grown - ups tend to keep a lot of secrets . i 'm always pushing my father to explain things to me , but he usually says `` i 'm too young to understand , `` which is totally ridiculous because father could n't possibly run his life without my help . emma : daddy tried to act normal , asking what i was doing in school today . but when i answered him , he did n't -- he did n't seem to be listening , except for when i asked him when he and sam were going to get married . spencer : what 'd he say ? emma : he said we 'll talk about that later , too . spencer : that does n't sound good . emma : now it 's all making sense . daddy and sam ca n't get married if she already is . daddy must be so sad . spencer : you must be really sad , too . emma : why does everything have to change ? why ca n't everyone just be happy ? [ scene_break ] hayden : that 's right , ladies . i remember everything , despite having been the innocent victim of a hit man 's bullet . but it was fun pretending not to . laura : you 've known all along , have n't you ? basically . elizabeth : i knew it . i knew it . so why did n't you expose nikolas and me ? hayden : it was much more entertaining to watch you tense up every time i was around , wondering if i still had no memory . elizabeth : and that 's what your little pre - wedding visit was all about ? you were just toying with me ? hayden : and you were every bit as amusing as i had hoped . elizabeth : oh , you 're a bitch . laura : no , do n't . honey , do n't , do n't , do n't . hayden : the moral outrage is hilarious . i mean , she 's been lying a lot longer than i have . elizabeth : did you know about this ? did you know she 's been pretending this whole time ? nikolas : do you really think i 'd keep that from you ? hayden : gee , nikolas . it 's like she does n't trust you to tell the truth . nikolas : she only came clean to me last night . laura : and you never suspected that she was lying ? nikolas : i knew that i could n't trust her , but i did n't know that she remembered everything . hayden : i 'm that good . hand me that gold statuette . laura : well played , hayden . so you 've got some powerful leverage right now . and what do you want in exchange for your silence ? hayden : nikolas and i have worked it out . i 'm not gon na say anything . i 'm happy with our terms . elizabeth : you really expect us to believe that ? nikolas : i have it under control . laura : i do n't think hayden can be controlled . hayden : thank you . i knew i liked you . but do n't worry . i have no reason to tell . elizabeth : oh , come on , hayden . you do n't need a reason to mess with people . it 's your hobby . hayden : i do n't need to tell . everything is going to right itself now that jason knows who he really is . i mean , it all makes perfect sense why he never quite fit into your life . and you know what 's funny ? even when he did n't know who he was , jason turned to sam for help . clearly they 're compatible . i mean , it wo n't be long before he remembers his all - consuming love for her . and you 'll be out in the cold . elizabeth : you 're wrong . jason loves me now . he does n't feel anything for sam . not anymore . [ scene_break ] jason : sam , do n't do this , please . sam : no , you were my husband . that has to resonate with you . jason : i do n't want to disappoint you . okay ? look at me . you were my wife . you 're still my wife , okay ? and i know from everything that you told me that we had a love that most people do n't experience . but i am sorry ... no . ... i do n't remember . sam : no , no , no . you -- you said that you would never stop loving me , and i refuse to believe that you have . i do n't believe it . jason : honey , the night of our anniversary , we were standing in the exact same place when we were married , i did n't get a single memory . nothing came back . it was all -- sam : i know you felt something . i know -- i know you did . you may not be able to name it or define it , but i know . i know i am still in your heart . [ scene_break ] patrick : robin , what is that supposed to mean ? what are you -- what are you talking about ? robin : [ sighs ] when you found me at crichton - clarke , last year when you were there with sam and we talked about jason , i - i wanted to explain -- patrick : robin ? hey , robin ? [ groans ] you got to be kidding me ? robin : give me back my phone . man : so you can tell the real story of how jason morgan survived ? i do n't think so .

[ cell phone rings ] robin : it 's my husband . he 'll get suspicious if i do n't pick up . man : he 'll think you lost service . [ ringing continues ] robin : see ? he 's not gon na give up . i mean , you grabbed the phone when i was mid - sentence . patrick will know that something 's wrong . look , your superiors do not want my family to suspect that i 'm not telling the truth , okay ? so if you 're not gon na pick up the phone , can you at least press that little button that sends him a message ? man : what do you mean ? robin : oh , you 've -- - you 've never used that ? i -- i use it all the time . [ chuckles ] it 's right on the screen there . if you do n't want to pick up , if you 're too busy , just press the button , and it sends them a message . man : or i can just turn off the phone .

[ door slams ] tracy : what business could you possibly have with anna devane ? paul : she works for me . [ scene_break ] emma : with my mommy gone all the time , sam does all the things she used to do . spencer : like what ? emma : she helps me with my homework . she read `` the lion , the witch and the wardrobe , `` so she could make sure my book report was good . she does my hair . and she even likes to eat cookie dough with me . [ sighs ] daddy thinks it 's gross . spencer : i 'm really sorry that i 'm the one who had to break the news to you . i really hate that i made you this sad . emma : it 's okay . i was going to find out sometime . and danny has his dad back . that 's a good thing . but i still want sam and danny to stay with daddy and me . we were going to be a family . spencer : maybe they will stay . hayden told me that jason morgan does n't remember being married to sam . so he could still divorce her and marry my aunt elizabeth . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : jason came home with me last night because he still loves me . jason morgan is nothing but a name to him . hayden : yeah . no . i 'm pretty sure sam disagrees . laura : you do n't know what sam is feeling . hayden : oh , but i do . i was there at the church last night . i mean , jason is definitely popular with the ladies . there elizabeth was clinging to him for dear life , trying to get him to marry her , despite the fact that he 's married to sam , who looked like she 'd been hit by a freight train . but i think you guys are all missing the wild card here . carly seems to be the one who knows how this guys ticks . my guess is , whoever gets carly 's vote will be the one who gets jason in the end . elizabeth : it 's not a competition . hayden : oh , but it totally is . and you 're outmatched . i mean , i did n't need to know the guy for more than five minutes to know that you 're not his type . nikolas : hayden , i realize this is your idea of a good time , but will you stop needling elizabeth . she 's right . jason told sam last night he does n't remember loving her . hayden : well , where 's your sense of romance ? sam was so intense and passionate , she 'll probably bring back jason 's memories by sheer force of will . it wo n't be long before she makes him remember he loves her . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm engaged to elizabeth . i 'm in love with her . sam : i know . listen , the last thing i want to do is pressure you , truly . i just -- i want you to realize the bond that we shared . it 's there . it always has been . it 's just -- i just want you to remember that . jason : sam , you 've known me as jake for an entire year . not one of those memories has resurfaced . maybe they 're gone . sam : no , no , that -- that is not true . it 's not true . when helena sent you to kill me , you could n't do it , because you remembered being in our bed . that was one mission she sent you on that you refused to do , you were able to walk away from . you disobeyed her order , because you could not kill me because you loved me . [ scene_break ] tracy : anna has a well - deserved reputation in law enforcement . but she is ... not used to taking orders . in fact , she 's used to running the show . not to mention the fact that she just suffered a devastating loss a couple of months ago , and i 'm not so sure that she 's really recovered fully . why on earth would you hire her ? paul : well , as you said , anna has a well - deserved and formidable reputation . tracy : uh - huh . and yet there still seems to be dissension between the two of you . paul : well , anna has chosen to look into a case that 's already been closed and refuses to back off it , so ... tracy : i rest my case . she is as contrary as a cat . paul : well , cats can be fascinating . tracy : oh , my -- what is it about that woman that turns men on ? is it the accent , the tail ? paul : no , no , no . you -- you 've misinterpreted what i 'm saying . tracy : well , whatever the fascination is , do yourself a big favor and get over it . the woman is far more trouble than she 's worth . [ scene_break ] anna : patrick ... patrick : hey . hey . hey , thanks for coming to see me so quickly . anna : well , yeah . you said you got disconnected from robin . patrick : yeah . do you have another number that i can reach her on ? her cell phone keeps dropping out . i 'm trying to -- i 'm trying to tell her about jason , which i 'm assuming you -- you heard . anna : i did . yeah . that jake doe 's been identified as jason . patrick : yeah . right . anna : well , the list of helena cassadine 's victims just keeps getting longer , does n't it ? patrick : that 's for sure . anna : so , no . i - i do n't have another number for robin , unfortunately . i wish i did , because she never answers her cell . patrick : yeah , i figured if she kept in contact with anybody , it would be you , but ... anna : no . she does n't seem to want to communicate with me . and when she does , it 's -- it 's very brief and infrequent . you know , she sounds happy , but there 's something in her voice that -- patrick : yeah , i know . she 's religious about her skype calls with emma , which is a good thing , but anytime she gets on the phone with me , it 's just -- i do n't know . she just ... gets off for whatever reason -- a conference call , a patient , i do n't know , whatever . but i do n't know . it 's just -- for some reason , she 's trying to avoid me . [ scene_break ] robin : [ sighs ] patrick , please pick up . [ cell phone rings ] patrick : one second . anna : is it her ? patrick : yeah . robin ? hey . you okay ? robin : yes , i do n't have much time . you need to know the truth about jason . [ scene_break ] emma : it was nice of chandler to bring these apples to us . spencer : he was really just checking up on me . he 's extra - careful after all the trouble i 've got him into in going off on my own and making my father quite angry . emma : you should n't make your father worry like that , spencer . spencer : my father 's been a lot calmer since hayden moved in . although he got very hot and bothered when i pointed out to him that he 's in love with hayden . emma : he is ? spencer : absolutely . all the signs are there . emma : does that mean that you 're gon na have the mom you 're always wishing for ? spencer : i do n't know . i think hayden likes me . and she definitely likes my father . but there 's something going on between those two that even i do n't understand . [ scene_break ] hayden : have a little dignity , elizabeth . a good rule of thumb is if you have to lie to a man about his identity to keep him , the relationship probably was n't mean to be . nikolas : knock it off , hayden . hayden : i 'm just calling it as i see it . elizabeth : have we all forgotten that sam is with patrick ? and patrick just said that they 're still engaged , so ... nothing 's changed . laura : elizabeth -- and you said yesterday -- you said that jason and i have a connection . laura : yes , i know , but sam and jason have their own connection . she is his wife . elizabeth : in name only . jason does not remember their life together . laura : but he never gave up searching for his past . he is very , very determined . and one day , he 's gon na want to know why he was separated from his wife and his son . and one day , he will discover that you two knew the truth about his identity , and you did n't tell him . and when that happens , i do n't think any amount of love is going to fix it for you . listen to me -- the only hope you have is to tell jason the whole truth right now yourself . [ scene_break ] sam : you still love me . you never stopped . that 's why you could n't kill me . jason : that night , i - i had a flicker , but these things -- they 're -- they 're broken segments of images and feelings and they 're like a dream . you wake up , and they 're gone . you do n't get them back . i do n't remember any of this . sam : you do n't ? do you remember this ? [ sniffles ] do you ? jason : my wedding band . sam : yes . you were wearing it the night you were shot . jason : i thought we were having problems . sam : yeah , we were . they were none of our making , though . and it took us a long time to get back to each other , but ... we did . and we were stronger than anyone or anything that could get in our way . we were happier than we had ever been that night . [ sniffles ] and then you were taken away from me . jason : i was n't taken . do you understand that ? i was n't taken from you . i - i left of my own accord . i did a job for sonny . no one forced me to do anything . sam : no ! are you kidding me ? you were rescuing your -- your friend . that 's what you did . you put your life out there because you care about other people . jason , i am not mad at you that you went and did what you did . but when you disappeared , a part of me died . do you understand that ? i was only able to go on because of our son . [ exhales sharply ] jason : i 'm sorry i did that to you . sam : you did n't . i am so happy that you 're here , okay ? i am -- i 'm so happy that you 're here , and you may not remember any of this , but i do . and i know -- i know in your heart that someday , you will , too . i know it . jason : i - i remember ... i remember being with you . i ...

[ scene_break ] robin : patrick , just listen to me , okay ? you have to hear this . anna : what is she saying ? patrick : hold on . you do n't -- you do n't sound surprised that jason 's alive , robin . did -- did you know ? robin : [ sighs ] i am so sorry . i - i could n't find a way to explain -- [ clattering ] patrick : robin ? hey , you there ? robin , did i lose you ? robin : no . i 'm here . i , um ... i was just saying that i 'm so shocked by what you said that i was speechless , and , um ... ... you know , that i was devastated when i could n't save jason , so you telling me that he 's alive -- it 's such good news . patrick : okay , no , no . wh - what you 're saying about the truth about jason -- what -- tell me what you were talking about . man : hang up . now . robin : the truth ... ... is that i never stopped blaming myself for not being able to save him . so ... thank you for telling me . patrick : no , no , no . hey , robin , no . there 's something you 're not telling me . what 's going on ? robin : can i call you back ? patrick , a colleague just came into my office . patrick : no , robin . hey , wait . robin , listen . your mother is here . robin : i 'm sorry , patrick . [ cell phone beeps ] [ scene_break ] spencer : grown - ups are complicated . but they mean well . emma : i knew something like this would happen . spencer : what do you mean ? emma : when they told me they were getting married , i asked sam if her husband could come back like mommy came back even though everyone thought she was dead . spencer : but your mom did n't stay . and i know that makes you sad . emma : [ crying ] everything was better when sam came . now that her husband is back ... who 's to say she wo n't break up with daddy and me ? spencer : you know that we were supposed to make a thanksgiving tree , and each leaf is supposed to represent something we 're thankful for . let 's see if we have enough leaves . you first . emma : i 'm grateful for a lot of things , including being friends with you again . spencer : i 'm grateful that you seem to have forgiven me after all the crazy stunts i pulled , like ... ... trying to give you that ring that i found in my father 's safe . emma : that turned out to be sam 's husband 's wedding ring . spencer : but that still does n't explain why my father got so furious when he discovered i had taken it .

while the dust is still settling for everyone regarding jason being alive and the same person as jake , sam admits to jason she 's overwhelmed and can not believe that he has no memory of the love they had . he tells her he honestly has no such memories or feelings and reminds her that they still need some answers as to who `` engineered `` having everyone believing he died when he did not and all that was involved in that . she wants to help him investigate that and he accepts her help although , remembering nothing else , he reminds her he needs to get back to elizabeth and she needs to get back to patrick . meanwhile , elizabeth goes to wyndemere , to urgently meet with the 3 people besides herself who knew and kept the secret that jake was really jason . she lashes out at hayden , afraid that she will use it against elizabeth , by having jake and many others finding out that elizabeth scammed him and kept him away from the life he had before . knowing all too well what this means to elizabeth , hayden reminds her that if she were to do that , it will result in elizabeth being all alone and experiencing many detrimental consequences which elizabeth does n't want to face . laura privately admonishes elizabeth to realize that she can not continue to cling to jake and not accept that he could get his memory back and get back with sam . she 's also concerned with why her son would want to co - habitate and have a relationship with someone like hayden .

tracy : nope . luke : come on , spanky . you know that i would n't ask if there was any other way . tracy : a woman should not have to watch her husband marry another woman in her own home ! luke : tracy , laura is going to slip back into that black pit in a matter of weeks , maybe even days . the only gift that i can give her is this remarriage . why ca n't you understand that ? tracy : i understand this -- i 'm your wife . ergo , laura ca n't be .

[ scene_break ] matt : sounds good to me . elizabeth : [ sighs ] that 's good . those dreams i was having were so stressful . all the people i 've lost . i just have to think of positive things , like my boys and all the people who have stood by me . jason : i 'm glad you 're gon na be okay . i should get going . elizabeth : okay . jason : i 'll see you soon . elizabeth : thanks . monica : jason . i , uh , i know that -- that could n't have been easy for you having elizabeth talk about jake as though he were still here . jason : yeah . you know , jake 's always gon na be a part of my life , the memory and everything that he gave me . monica : that 's true . family bonds are forever . and , uh , speaking of family , now that you and sam are back from your honeymoon , i bet you 're excited about starting your life together . is there something wrong ? jason : no . no . i - i 'm fine . i should really go arrange a check - up . monica : okay . all right . all right . i 'm not -- i 'm not good at this , jason , but -- please know that you -- you can always come to me if you ever want to talk -- a - about anything . jason : thank you . [ scene_break ] robin : i told you everything i know . i promise . mac : you sure about that ? robin : yes . why ? mac : because i remember when you were a teenager . you 'd take my s.u.v . , go somewhere you should n't go , you 'd get that nervous look on your face , just like you got now . robin : well , maybe i 'm nervous because i do n't like reliving the whole experience of being on the boat . she 's a crazy person , and i 'm glad -- was a crazy person -- i 'm glad that she 's gone , and i do n't appreciate you acting like me and patrick are suspects in her murder . i have to deal with something . uh , we done ? mac : yeah , we 're done -- for now . [ scene_break ] robin : [ clears throat ] excuse me . excuse me . um , i saw you take those gloves from the hub . they 're for hospital personnel only . nurse : it 's okay . the patient was , uh , scratching her rash , and she does n't want to wear gloves . maggie : they 're not gloves . these are puppets . and they are gon na be your new friends . they 're gon na help you get through this and get better . are you gon na let them help you ? yeah ? nurse : thank you . little girl : thank you . robin : uh , i 'm robin scorpio - drake , the chief of staff . maggie : oh , great . um , then you might want to tell that little girl 's doctor to test for guttate psoriasis and not assume it 's a reaction to an antibiotic as her chart mistakenly indicates . robin : [ chuckles ] well , i do n't know who you think you are , but , uh , i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . steven : well , i see you met dr. wurth , the pediatrician i brought in from memphis . robin : oh . okay . uh , let 's do this over again . robin scorpio - drake . nice to meet you . maggie : chief of staff . got it . nice to meet you . robin : uh , well , that was really nice what you did for that little girl , but i am going to need you to fill out some hr paperwork before i can let you treat any patients , okay ? maggie : sure . sorry , chief . get right on that . robin : great . well , welcome to gh , and i 'm sure your friend , steve , can show you around . maggie : [ chuckles ] yes , he is good at that . steven : already stirring it up with the chief , huh ? maggie : ah -- steven : not good . maggie : i think she likes me . and i can already tell i 'm gon na love it here . [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] kate : well , look who 's waiting for whom . johnny : i never got an answer to my question . kate : oh , there was a question in your tirade ? johnny : oh , more like just honesty . you are accomplished , and sonny is a user and a thug . kate : you know , johnny , i might be inclined to heed your dire warning if your motives were n't so transparent . you do n't give a damn what happens to me . you just do n't want sonny to be happy . johnny : [ chuckles ] you 're assuming that you have the ability to make sonny happy when one would think you 've learned that lesson already . sonny loves his misery . he cultivates it . he wears it on his -- on his jacket sleeve like a badge of honor . kate : and that amuses you . johnny : no , it actually does n't because he inflicts that misery on everybody around him , and the closer people are to him , the worse the damage is . kate : hmm . johnny : i 'd tell you to ask my sister , but it 's a little late for that . kate : you always make everything about claudia ? johnny : yeah , the woman that sonny married instead of you . kate : hmm . well , we both know that ended in disaster for everyone concerned . johnny : worse for claudia than anyone else . kate : look , johnny , i know you loved your sister . why do n't you let her rest in peace ? i know she would want that for you . johnny : kate , if sonny loved you so much , why did he marry claudia ? you know the answer to that question . because marrying claudia meant that sonny could take over a pretty large chunk of the zacchara territory , something that he wanted a hell of a lot more than he wanted you . kate : turnabout is fair play , i suppose . johnny : in english , please ? kate : there were things i wanted more than sonny , all right ? there was a time when i left him behind . maybe if i had stayed , he might be different today . maybe he would n't be the man that you despise . maybe you have all this misplaced anger and the person that you should be blaming is me . [ scene_break ] sonny : um , so you do n't think , uh , lulu 's been good for dante and vice versa ? luke : i think you 're hoping that a marriage to my daughter will save your son . sonny : they seem to love each other . luke : lulu 's not sure she wants to marry him . sonny : she told you that ? luke : no , i have n't seen her , but sometimes a father knows his child 's mind without hovering over her . [ sighs ] but she 'll probably jump off that cliff . she is my daughter , after all . and dante 's your son , which means he could end up in a shallow grave in pine barrens . sonny : i thought you did n't mess in the lives of your grown - up kids . luke : [ chuckles ] well , that 's why i 'm here , sonny . i thought that was your job . sonny : well , you know what ? your daughter 's gon na do what she 's gon na do 'cause , you know , you know your daughter . luke : she 's a spencer . sonny : right . luke : but you know , uh , people warned laura about me . maybe if she would have listened to them , she would have avoided a world of hurt . sonny : maybe , but maybe , you know , she would have missed out on some good times . i mean , knowing what you know now , would you still marry her ? luke : i do n't see any point in going there , sonny . it 's over . ca n't change the past . sonny : no , you ca n't . luke : that said , would you have married brenda ? sonny : you do what you do . luke : and you live with the consequences . sonny : just like dante and -- and lulu will . luke : [ sighs ] i , uh , heard things got kind of crazy for you after brenda . you still taking your meds ? sonny : [ sighs ] you really off yours ? [ scene_break ] lucky : okay , whoever you are , whatever you want to tell me , i 'm here . i 'm here . just -- tell me what i 'm supposed to know . tell me whatever i 'm supposed to hear . jake .

[ scene_break ] luke : how about i go ahead and assume you know what 's best for you , just like i know what 's best for me . sonny : i get it . you 're pissed at me . 'cause i - i wanted to do something for you that -- that -- that i thought was good for you . and i 've been pissed at you , uh , quite a bit . bottom line is , your kids missed you , and i know -- i do n't care what you say . i know that you -- you -- you give a damn . i know you too well . i 've seen too much . even the fact that you do n't want your daughter to marry dante proves to me that you care , even though you do n't want to admit it . luke : i have a grandson . aiden . sonny : yeah . yeah . congratulations . it 's a -- it 's a -- it 's a beautiful thing , you know ? your kids , your kids ' kids . it just goes on . we just hope they can take the good from us into the future . luke : and how about the bad ? sonny : well , that 's a risk you 're gon na have to take . i do n't know what kind of relationship you want , you know , with -- with your grandson or if you even want a relationship . but if you do n't have one , it 's not good . it 's gon na -- the kid 's gon na feel unwanted and unloved . and you know where that can lead . luke : this conversation has taken a decidedly mawkish turn , so if you 'll pardon me , i 'm gon na go . sonny : wait , wait , wait . hey , wait . wait a minute . if they do get married , right , i do n't want to have to hunt you down to give away the bride or , you know , pay for the wedding . luke : oh , i 'll pay . believe me . and speaking of weddings , if you ever decide to have another one with somebody , say , oh , i do n't know , kate , for example , i hope that you will remember how the others turned out . sometimes , sonny , the best thing we can do for people we love is stay the hell away from them . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] johnny : you ca n't seriously tell me that you feel guilty for the way sonny 's life has turned out . kate : well , you know , you say you 've never had any success leaving your past behind , right ? johnny : yeah . kate : well , neither has sonny . the one time he tried , i was supposed to run away with him . i never showed up . johnny : well , we 'll always have bensonhurst . kate : [ chuckles ] johnny : come on . a broken - hearted sonny -- you mean to tell me that that 's what led him to a life of crime ? that 's a crock and you know it . he had no choice but to become the man who he is today . he 's a junkie . he 's addicted to power , like my father is . would you have been able to save sonny ? no . did you save yourself by walking away ? most likely . kate : yeah . and that has been my justification . johnny : so why put it all on the line now ? why get anywhere near the guy ? kate : because , johnny , in order to free yourself from the past , you have to face it . you have to accept responsibility , make amends , and then let it go . johnny : you make it sound like you 're the one who was sonny . kate : no , actually , i 'm referring to you . you hold on to your sister , and so you reel sonny forward , even though it 's clear to me that you 're blaming yourself for what happened to claudia . johnny , i do n't know what you did or what you did n't do . i do n't know what -- what part of this guilt is real or -- or if it 's -- if it 's irrational . but what i do know is that it 's a poison . i know how this works . the self - blame , the regret -- you can not outrun it . johnny : what are you trying to run from , kate ? kate : i 'm -- i 'm not . johnny : i 'll admit it . you know , when i saw you and i walked up to you a minute ago , i had an agenda . did i think anything i was gon na say would break you and sonny apart ? no . was i looking to maybe make some waves ? why not . kate : why not ? johnny : but what you said about claudia , it means something . and i owe you for her , so if ever you need a - a friend or a favor , you know where to find me . [ scene_break ] off . padilla : dr. webber . do you have a minute ? steven : uh , actually , no . my sister is a patient here , and i have to check on her . off . padilla : your sister , elizabeth webber ? she was in the boat , too , right ? steven : yeah . she was . until lisa niles pushed her overboard . off . padilla : got it . and no problem . i 'll check back with you later . hopefully you have more time to discuss lisa niles . steven : hey . matt : hey . steven : how you feeling ? matt : well , she gave us a scare there for a little while , but everything seems to be back on track . i 'm gon na check in on you in a little bit , okay ? elizabeth : so , how 'd it go with my boys ? steven : great . elizabeth : really ? there were no problems ? steven : what ? are you kidding ? you 're talking to your brother here . uncle steve . elizabeth : [ laughs ] yeah , but i know they 're a handful , especially for someone who does n't have kids , like uncle steve . steven : they were fine . elizabeth : but what ? steven : i do n't know . it 's just that i was thinking of how unfair it is that you have to take care of those boys by yourself . any word from lucky yet ? elizabeth : no . i do n't even know if he 's coming back . steven : yeah , well , if he decides to , uh , show his face , then he 's gon na have to deal with me . no one gets away with hurting my sister .

sonny : it 's true . you 're back . a.j . : and better than ever . michael : a.j .

we have a great wine list . britt : um , how about champagne ? we 're celebrating . maxie : [ sighs ] it feels so good to be home . the downside -- i have to live with spinelli 's girlfriend . upside -- once he sees us in proximity , it 'll be obvious that i 'm the only choice . ellie : what about the only choice ? maxie : [ sighs ] carly : you keep calling a.j . your father . michael : that 's because he is , mom . carly : it 's a biological fact and nothing more . a.j . did n't raise you . he does n't really know you . and he does n't give a damn about you . michael : he says he does . carly : then why is he here ? why is he doing this ? he managed to disappear high from his crimes , so why is he trying to force himself back into your life ? michael : mom , he 's in lockup because you called the cops . carly : no . no , michael . they could n't arrest him without charges to support it . and now he is trying to manipulate you into defending him . michael : so , justice only applies to people you do n't like . carly : this is n't about justice , michael . this is about a.j . trying to turn you against me . sonny : you may have escaped death . but you ca n't escape me . maxie : i was just wondering which room you would want . uh , for me , there 's only one choice , and that 's the master suite . not that it 's a master suite . it 's just bigger than the other room by two feet and 3/4 of an inch . and all that space is in the closet , seeing as i 'm hoping to return to the world of fashion publishing sooner rather than later . it 's a definite priority . ellie : yes . by all means , you should have the master suite . closet space is n't a pressing concern for everyone . maxie : oh . great . then the other room should work out perfectly for you . ellie : great . oh , damian ! be careful ! maxie : be careful with that box ! my perfume is in there ! it 's very fragile ! ellie : and my trinocular boom stereo -- maxie : it 's -- [ clatter ] britt : here 's to clear communication . patrick : yes . britt : and to emma for happily staying the night with mac and felicia . patrick : let 's hope that it 's a happy night and she does n't get another phone call . britt : what phone call ? patrick : her grandmother got her a toy phone for her birthday , and she 's been getting phone calls from robin from heaven . britt : wow , that must be tough . patrick : yeah . i mean , i know it 's healthy to play and -- and to kind of deal with grief in that way , but it kind of threw me for a loop when she started getting them on the land line . britt : that must have been unsettling . patrick : yeah . so , anyways , a night with mac and felicia is probably a perfect distraction . they spoil her rotten in -- in a good way , of course , so ... britt : well , maybe i can find a way to spoil you rotten , too . patrick : [ chuckles ] britt : fair warning . my place is under renovation . you do n't want to know . i hope you do n't mind a hotel . patrick : no , i think that 's ... britt : you -- you still do want to do this ?

tracy : yes , i was aware of that . sabrina : oh , cool ! well , actually , several members of your family have participated over the years , including mr. quartermaine sr . that is , your father . he was in at least two numbers that i know of . tracy : yes , well , that was decades ago . and mercifully , most people have forgotten . sabrina : oh , well , we want to remind them . tracy : of my father making an ass of himself onstage ? sabrina : of the nurses ' ball . elizabeth and i were just wondering since it 's such an important cause and your family has been so generous over the years -- tracy : oh , can we just cut to the chase ? how much do you want ? carly : you know , when i drugged a.j . and i made him think he was drinking , i was wrong . michael : yeah , you were . carly : but do you not see the magnitude of difference between what i did , anything i did , and what a.j . did to all of us ? baby , what he did to you ? and not just the kidnapping , but the way he lied to you , the way he hurt you , the way he is still hurting you . michael : mom , i do n't blame you for hating a.j . i just understand right now more than i ever have before that a.j . had his own reasons for hating you . and right now , he 's the one who 's in lockup , and nobody is letting me see him ! carly : you know what ? he 's in lockup , michael , because he deserves to be there . michael : no , he 's here because you called the cops when i begged you not to ! carly : i know you do n't believe this , but i did that for you . michael : yeah , i understand . carly : do you ? michael : you made your mind up about a.j . that he was bad for me before i was even born . you two fought my entire childhood . the worse things got , the harder you fought . it 's how you think , mom . it 's who you are . you ca n't give up . and now a.j . 's back , and you 're fighting again . and i 'm asking you , i 'm begging you just to please stop . let me figure this out myself . sonny : why 'd you come back ? you were free . i 'm sure your mom was keeping you updated on what was going on . why did n't you stay in hiding ? a.j . : 'cause jason 's missing . probably dead , sonny , thanks to you . sonny : you do n't know what you 're talking about . a.j . : really ? let me see if i get this straight . so , he 's on a job for you , right , and , uh , uh , what was it called ? the division of labor . is that what it was ? so you would stay in your little office all safe and sound , and jason would take all the risks . i mean , come on , man . you 're a smart guy . this was bound to happen eventually , right ? sonny : i loved jason like a brother . a.j . : really ? did you ? 'cause you know what ? he was my brother ! and you exploited him for your dirty work . sonny : get the facts straight , junior . you drove jason into a tree , and you robbed him of his life . a.j . : you do n't give a crap about the plans the quartermaines used to have for jason or the plans that jason used to have ! sonny : i loved jason . i respected him . if you do n't like the life he chose , look in the mirror . a.j . : there is not a day that goes by that i do n't think about what i did to my brother . but i got to tell you , man , i ... i did n't use him . i did n't put him in harm 's way every single day . and i sure as hell did n't turn him into a killer . see , that 's all on you , pal . you 're the reason jason 's dead . sonny : i 'm not here to argue about jason . i 'm here to talk about michael . you 're gon na be in here a long time . and i do n't want you dragging him down with you . a.j . : michael 's been lied to his whole life . i 'm gon na make sure he hears the truth , and i do n't give a damn if it comes from a visiting room in pentonville . sonny : michael 's going to college . he 's having a great future . i do n't want you piling on the guilt , making him feel responsible for the train wreck of your life . so here 's what 's gon na happen . you 're not gon na see michael again . a.j . : [ laughs ] are you seriously telling me to stay away from my own son ? monica : this is outrageous ! my sister - in - law had no business arresting us ! i ca n't believe it ! carly : wow . [ chuckles ] there is justice after all . tracy : okay . i 'll buy a table . how much ? elizabeth : uh , it would be great for you and -- and your friends to be at the ball , but we 're not selling tickets . the truth is , the hospital has n't budgeted anything for the ball since 2001 . so we are starting from scratch , and we are looking for a company or a family to underwrite the event . tracy : mm - hmm . that 's why you wanted to speak to my father . see if you could wheedle him into underwriting the new and improved nurses ' ball . elizabeth : i thought edward might be offended if we did n't come to him first . i know that your family has been a big part of the nurses ' ball from the beginning . edward , alan , monica , need , a.j . , i mean , even jason participated . tracy : half those people are dead . elizabeth : [ sighs ] as you know , h.i.v . and aids - related charities were a huge cause for robin , and i know that edward was very fond of her and very generous with emma , especially during the whole pathogen crisis when he gave her his medicine . i - i just thought edward would want to be a part of this . sabrina : so , what do you say , ms . quartermaine ? will you help us ? britt : look , i understand if -- if you -- if you ca n't do this . we do n't have to . patrick : no , it 's not that . it 's just , i 've been out of the game for a little bit , and i do n't know the rules or lack thereof rules . i do n't know -- britt : there are no rules . i mean , we are just two people who enjoy each other 's company . this is supposed to be fun . patrick : right . you 're right . fun . it is fun . and you know what ? i need fun , and i have had a lot of fun with you lately . britt : to fun . we need it . patrick : we need it . [ glasses clink ] [ both chuckle ] britt : doctor , you just made my night . dante : so , you 're , uh , serious about the surrogacy thing ? lulu : yeah . i 'm -- i 'm -- i mean , i 'm having a little trouble imagining the technicalities of it . your sperm and my egg put together in a lab and sorted into a stranger . it 's ... i mean , what ? nine months later , we just show up at a hospital ? dante : well , i 'm sure we -- we have dates with the surrogate , maybe go to doctor 's appointments , make sure she 's taking her vitamins and hear the heartbeat . lulu : the heartbeat . in someone else 's body . dante : yeah . think of it as just a really , really great babysitter for nine months of the baby 's life , and then we take over . lulu : i just do n't know if it 'll make me feel like i 'm a mom . dante : you know , i have not one doubt in my mind that when they put that baby in your arms , you are gon na be a mom . lulu : do you think that we can do this ? dante : yeah . i mean , we get past the awkwardness . financially , it 's gon na be a bit of an issue , but look , if surrogacy is something you want to explore ... lulu : i do . dante : ... then we will make it happen . spinelli : the perfume ? maxie : trust me . you would have smelled it if the bottle broke . spinelli : uh , the -- the microscope . ellie : oh , uh ... all systems go . spinelli : oh , good . i would have hated to have decimated to your precious paraphernalia . you -- you know , in the future , you might actually think about a moving company . i am a most inferior pack mule . ellie : oh , i think you 're a wonderful pack mule ! and an even better man . maxie : anyone hungry ? uh , not that there 's any food in the refrigerator . i 'm sure starr and trey did n't leave anything since i practically kicked them out . oh , yep ! see ? nothing ! i do n't even know why i looked . they ca n't cook . guys ? do you want me to order food maybe or ... carly : i did warn you it was a felony to harbor an escaped criminal . not that your worthless son gives a damn about you . monica : oh , shut up , carly . carly : what are the charges ? aiding and abetting ? assault and battery . carly : who 's the victim ? tracy quartermaine . tracy : aids research is a very worthy cause , one that elq has long - championed . and you 're right . my father was very fond of robin , and he would like to be involved depending on ... the particulars . sabrina : so , you 'll do it ? you 'll underwrite the ball ? tracy : would my sister - in - law monica be involved ? elizabeth : not necessarily -- sabrina : of course she 'll be involved . dr. quartermaine is chief of staff . elizabeth : she is swamped with stuff at the hospital . sabrina : oh , i 'm sure she could find the time . we ca n't have a ball without dr. quartermaine . she will play a major role . i mean , huge . tracy : center stage . elizabeth : okay , let 's let -- sabrina : yeah ! i have n't had a chance to speak to dr. quartermaine yet , but yes . you and your sister - in - law would definitely be working very closely together . tracy : okay . well , then , in that case , the answer 's no . sabrina : what ? tracy : goodbye . show yourselves out . sabrina : what -- what did i say ? ellie : hey , do you know why maxie took off ? i thought we were gon na unpack . spinelli : knowing maxie , something else must have taken precedence . ellie : you do n't think she was bothered by our public display of affection , do you ? spinelli : well , why would she care ? ellie : you know , with her pending divorce , she may be melancholy . um , or maybe she was bothered seeing you kiss me . spinelli : oh , i seriously doubt maxie cares who i kiss . maxie : it was disgusting . i turn my head for two seconds and they 're playing tonsil hockey . dante : [ chuckles ] tonsil hockey ? maxie : on the couch . on my couch . and lulu knows how long it took me to find the perfect style and color , and now i ca n't sit on that thing without thinking of ellie and spinelli mid - grope . dante : what did you expect was gon na happen when you asked spinelli 's girlfriend to move in with you ? lulu : well , she obviously thought the proximity would remind spinelli how much he cares for her , right ? maxie : hello ! i have more style in my pinkie toe than ellie has in her whole body . yes , she has this kind of off - the - wall , quirky thing that 's appealing in limited doses . lulu : i 'm thinking that the wardrobe does n't really have anything to do with it . maxie : instead of spinelli noticing me and realizing how much i miss him and care about him , all i 'm doing is noticing ellie and spinelli , and it 's making me ill . lulu : okay , well , maybe it 's time you just tell spinelli how you feel about him . dante : that makes sense . maybe spinelli ca n't pick you if he does n't know you 're there to be picked . sabrina : dr. westbourne . elizabeth : hi . sabrina : dr. drake ? patrick : hi . hi . what , uh , what 's going on ? britt : what is this ? nurses night out ? elizabeth : um , no , actually , we 're here to drown our sorrows . sabrina : yeah , we had an epic fail at our first attempt to raise funds for the nurses ' ball . britt : aw . i 'm sorry . patrick : well , maybe we should put our heads together and find some donations . we 'll probably just have to get a little creative -- britt : tomorrow . we can all pitch in . elizabeth : it was kind of our fault . we started with the quartermaines . patrick : which one ? elizabeth : tracy . patrick : good luck . britt : unfortunately , patrick and i are just on the way out . sabrina : wait , wait . who 's -- who 's watching emma ? britt : she 's having a sleepover . patrick : yeah , uh , mac and felicia wanted a little emma time . sabrina : aw . britt : we have the whole night free . elizabeth : well , it 's nice to have that time out . however , i do feel a little guilty for being here because my grandmother thinks we 're fundraising . which , by the way , she 's totally in favor of bringing back the nurses ' ball . patrick : oh , great . well , she 's not gon na be the only one . i have n't told emma yet , but if it happens and she does find out , she 's gon na be thrilled . carly : you should have left a.j . where you sent him . actually , you should have told the police when you realized he was still alive . monica : not even you would turn your own son over to the police . carly : my sons would n't commit the crimes that a.j . did . monica : oh , they might , if a lying , scheming bitch drove them to it . carly : you 're such a hypocrite , monica . you never wanted michael to turn out like a.j . you wanted him to be like jason . and he is . he has the same strength and courage that jason has , and i gave that to my son when i gave him to jason . and you will never admit it , but you know i 'm right . monica : i need to call my attorney . let 's go . carly : too bad about the timing because a.j . 's gon na have no one to visit him . monica : he 'll have his son . a.j . : i 'd almost forgot how arrogant you really are , how you just expect people to bow down to your orders , right ? but there 's one thing that even the great sonny corinthos ca n't change , and that 's the fact that michael is my son . sonny : you should be grateful that i was there to clean up your mess and give michael a decent life . i 'm the one he calls dad . a.j . : you -- you labor under this -- this , uh , delusion , do n't you ? you 're a criminal . you 're a guy that could n't cut it in the real world so you turned to a life of crime . you 're no more than a glorified thug . sonny : everything i have i built , i bled to death for , i killed for . it was n't handed to me . my life was not handed to me like you . and then you smashed it to a million pieces and say , `` hey , you know what ? was n't my fault . `` a.j . : everything you have , you stole ! including my son . sonny : well , you 're never gon na see michael again , so it does n't matter . a.j . : really ? really ? well , you know what ? um , i think that 's michael 's decision , not yours . he 's a grown man . sonny : yeah , he 's a man . he 's -- he 's more of a man than you 'll ever be . he 's been through some hard times , and he 's made something of himself . he 's been through some hard times , you understand me ? so stop with the fairytale ! oh , you 're playing the victim . michael does n't need to hear it ! as a matter of fact , he does n't need you at all , a.j . a.j . : i got an idea . [ keys jingle ] a.j . : why do n't we let him decide himself , huh ? patrick : so , we 'll get together tomorrow , try and put together a list . elizabeth : great . thanks . patrick : perfect . and i think this is a great idea . thank you so much for helping . anything i can do , okay ? elizabeth : okay . patrick : okay . um , anyways , well , you guys have a good evening . elizabeth : yeah , you too . britt : oh , we will . patrick : bye . elizabeth : [ sighs ] so , you ready for that drink ? sabrina : please . super - size me . michael : why did you want to see a.j . ? sonny : we 're just gon na -- we were straightening some things out . a.j . : actually , sonny was uh , was -- was telling me that i need to stay away from you because apparently i 'm a bad influence . this coming from a - a gangster who hung me up by a meat hook so i 'd sign away my parental rights . sonny : do n't stop there , a.j . just keep telling him all the terrible things i did to you . a.j . : okay , let 's talk about the time that you locked me up in a room with a bottle of vodka for days -- days -- trying to get me drink . and you threatened to pour it down my throat and stage a drunk - driving accident if i did n't sign away my rights to michael , huh ? that was my choice . that was my choice . either sign it away or die . michael : true ? is that true ? sonny : yeah . yeah , it 's true . i just wish it was n't necessary . michael : necessary ? sonny : we 'd never talk to you about this , so ... when your mother was five months pregnant with your brother , a.j . shoved her down the stairs at the quartermaines ' , killed the baby she was carrying and almost killed her . a.j . : that was an accident , and i 'm sorry . sonny : yeah . a.j . has a lot of `` accidents . `` one `` accident `` left jason permanently brain - damaged . i did n't want , you know , any `` accidents `` to happen to you . a.j . : he was n't protecting you . he stole you . sonny : what other `` accidents `` did he explain away ? was ripping off your family an accident ? paying faith roscoe to kidnap my children an accident ? staging michael 's death an accident ? shooting your father in the back -- was that an accident ? a.j . : fine ! i admit it ! i was out of control ! sonny : you abducted my children from their home ! you put their lives at risk ! michael : dad , he said he was wrong . sonny : this is more than wrong . you do n't cross the line with children . you do n't threaten them . you do n't put their lives in danger . a.j . : really ? so no child 's ever been injured around you , sonny ? sonny : never . michael : dad , that 's not completely true . sonny : well , hey , wait a minute , okay ? i mean , you gon na call me an animal like -- like him ? michael : no , i 'm just saying , things can escalate and people can get hurt even when -- sonny : like who ? ! michael : like me , when i got shot in the head ! elizabeth : you sure you want that ? sabrina : i 'm officially drowning my sorrows . elizabeth : come on . it 's not that bad . so what if our first potential donor turned us down ? i should have known . it 's the quartermaines . they all hate each other . you never know what feud you 'd be walking in to . sabrina : i 'm not upset about the quartermaines . to hell with the quartermaines . lulu : relationships are complicated . you know this . it 's hard for someone to just come out and declare their feelings . maxie : thank you . i ca n't just tell spinelli how i feel about him when he 's dating someone else . dante : why not ? maxie : because i 'll be called a homewrecker . hello ? been there , down that . called a slut for years . dante : so , you do n't want to sabotage an existing relationship ? maxie : not in a way that looks bad . dante : oh . maxie : it 's like being a lawyer . you have to finesse the details . dante : finesse ? maxie : yeah . keep things discreet and confidential . dante : so , you discreetly and confidentially want to break up ellie and spinelli so you can have spinelli for yourself ? spinelli : i - i 'm sorry . did -- did -- did i do something wrong ? ellie : no . no . quite the contrary , actually . i really want to ... spinelli : [ chuckles ] so do i . but only if you 're ready . ellie : look , if i seem skittish , it 's no reflection on you . i think you 're so wonderful , damian . spinelli : okay , well ... then , if you do n't mind me asking , what -- what -- what is the reason for your unease ? ellie : uh , awhile back , i got involved with someone who i really liked , and i thought he liked me back . only ... let 's just say he did n't share the same feelings . anyway , when he broke up with me , i could n't eat and i could n't sleep . i could barely move , actually . i just do n't think i can go through something like that again . and i understand that people bring different levels of emotions to relationships , completely . i mean , what can seem like a huge commitment to someone may mean relatively little to someone else . so , in the interest of full disclosure , i just want you to know that being with you ... would be significant for me . spinelli : it -- it would be for me , as well . ellie : i just do n't want to take this step unless , you know , it 's serious . spinelli : i 'm -- i 'm not gon na hurt you , ellie . i 'm not the kind of person who hurts people . generally speaking , i 'm -- i 'm the kind of person who gets hurt . maxie : technically , i ca n't homewreck ellie and spinelli because they 're not even there yet . lulu : define `` not there yet . `` maxie : please . they have n't even had sex , okay ? how serious can they really be ? dante : if -- if you really care about spinelli -- maxie : if ? if ? have you even been listening to me ? of course i care about spinelli . he 's it for me . he 's my mac . dante : ooh . okay . if that 's the case , do n't you owe it to spinelli to tell him how you feel instead of playing these games ? sabrina : [ slurps ] wow . this is really ... this is really good . you know , i think there 's rum in it . elizabeth : i think there 's a lot more than rum . sabrina : really ? elizabeth : if it 's not the quartermaines that 's bothering you , what -- what is going on ? sabrina : [ scoffs ] `` emma 's having a sleepover . we have the whole night to ourselves . `` ugh . god . she dropped a keycard to the metro court at my feet . they 're doing it . patrick and dr. westbourne are having sex . elizabeth : well , y - yeah . probably . oh , god . you have a thing for patrick . sabrina : [ sputters ] oh . [ laughs ] no . no . of course -- of course not . elizabeth : sabrina , do you have a thing for patrick ? sabrina : yes . britt : [ chuckles ] if we were at my place , i could offer you a glass of wine . of course , we 'd also be ankle - deep in sawdust . trust me . this is much better . patrick : no argument here . elizabeth : patrick 's a wonderful guy . he 's a terrific surgeon . he 's really adorable . i get why -- sabrina : it 's just a crush . a crush . please do n't tell anyone ! elizabeth : i wo n't . i wo n't . sabrina : oh ! oh , god . i - i should have never said anything . i do n't usually drink . not -- not that it 's the drink that 's making me tell you -- really making me like patrick . it 's the drink that 's making me tell you . oh . and i promised myself i would keep it a secret . elizabeth : i 'm not gon na tell anyone . sabrina : look , it 's -- it 's ridiculous , right ? like , it 's ridiculous that i could ever think that he would -- would ever -- would ever like me back , right ? but just look at westbourne . she is like -- she -- she takes her shirt off in front of him in the locker room and just stands there , like , in her bra like it 's nothing . i could never do anything like that . and i 'm just standing there all ... vomit - y . and she 's standing there all ... gorgeous . [ scoffs ] and now they 're going to bed together . give me that . [ slurps ] britt : i 'll be just a minute , okay ? you keep working on these buttons . patrick : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] elizabeth : thanks , lulu . sabrina : thanks , lu -- lulu . thanks . lulu : so , i think dante 's right . spinelli ca n't know how you feel unless you tell him . maxie : what about ellie ? lulu : what about her ? they 're not married yet . so why do n't you tell spinelli how you feel before he gets more involved with her ? maxie : all right . you convinced me . no time like the present . i 'm gon na call him right now . ellie : did someone hurt you , damian ? spinelli : it was awhile ago and ... it does n't matter anymore . ellie : well , i 'll never hurt you 'cause i really like you . and i think you 're a person of extraordinary qualities . [ chuckles ] spinelli : well , so are you , ellie trout . [ cell phone buzzes ] tracy : mnh ! mnh ! that one 's even worse than the last one . wow . [ coughs ] diane : oh , we 're having martinis . terrific . i 'm parched . tracy : what are you doing in my house ? diane : this is monica quartermaine 's house . what 's left of it . and she advised me that there would n't be anyone to answer the door so that i should just let myself in . now , how about that martini ? tracy : knock yourself out . diane : thank you . that 's vile . tracy : i 'm aware . my maid is in prison . diane : yes , well , that 's precisely why i 'm here . [ clears throat ] i am now representing your maid and your sister - in - law , and i 'm just wondering if i could convince you to drop those charges . [ bottle clinks ] tracy : why would i do that ? monica has been annoying me for decades , and as for alice , i think it would be pretty easy to get someone else to clean my house . diane : yes . except as we 've already established , this is n't your house . this is dr. quartermaine 's house . and she has advised me to begin eviction proceedings . unless , of course , you and i can come to some sort of understanding . a.j . : you got shot in the head because of this bastard ? michael : look , dad , i 'm sorry . i know it was n't your fault . a.j . : michael , how bad was it ? michael : [ sighs ] i was in a coma for a little while , but i 'm okay now . a.j . : you were in a coma ? you must have needed therapy . i mean -- michael : i told you . i 'm -- i 'm okay . a.j . : your grandmother did n't tell me because she knew -- she knew i 'd come running . sonny : she did n't tell you 'cause she knew you 'd get arrested if you went to see him . michael : look , it 's over , okay ? it does n't matter anymore . a.j . : all this garbage about you protecting michael and he winds up getting shot ? ! michael : it 's not like that . a.j . : tell me what it 's like , sonny . i mean , you 're a big one on taking responsibility , huh ? let me guess . someone was aiming for you , right ? that bullet was aiming for you , right ? sonny : yeah . yeah . a.j . : well , you know something ? instead , my kid got shot ! he never should have been around you ! i wish that bullet would have hit you ! michael : all right . stop . look , whatever happened was n't his fault . a.j . : this is ridic -- now you got him defending you ! it 's unbelievable ! he never should have been anywhere near you ! carly : what the hell is a.j . yelling about ? you can hear him all the way upstairs . a.j . : you do n't know that sonny was responsible for getting michael shot , the guy that you -- you thought was better than me , huh ? ! you know , the only thing that 's worse than you as a father is her as a mother ! dante : yeah , when i -- when i suggested to tell spinelli how you feel , i meant face - to - face conversation . lulu : maxie , i do n't think blurting it out on the phone is the best idea . maxie : [ sighs ] spinelli 's not answering . [ cell phone buzzes ] spinelli : you 've reached the voicemail of damian spinelli , private investigator . maxie : they 're probably busy looking at bacteria . dante : uh - huh . lulu : so , what are you gon na do ? maxie : i will , uh , wait until tomorrow morning to tell spinelli how i feel about him . i mean , how much can change between now and then ? spinelli : this is really what you want ? ellie : yeah . i know i can trust you , damian . sabrina : look , the truth is , i just want patrick to be happy . you know ? and if he could find someone real to connect to , you know , even if it 's not me , even if it 's not me , i 'm -- i 'm fine with that . i 'd be okay with that . but look , i just do n't think that dr. westbourne really cares for patrick , you know , as a person , you know . and she just sees him as , like , just a handsome doctor . she does n't even look twice at emma . elizabeth : things could change over time . sabrina : mostly ... he 's just not ready . you can see it in his eyes . pffft . not that that 'll stop dr. westbourne . britt : what are you doing ? patrick : [ sighs ] i ca n't do this . [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i 'm just not ready . tracy : wow ! that 's the worst one yet ! mnh - mnh ! mmm ! here they come . the criminals . home from prison . monica : well , at least you did n't break it . tracy : well , there 's always a next time . alice , make me a martini . ooh ! alice : how about a `` please `` with that ? tracy : and why should i be nice to you ? you betrayed me . alice : i did n't betray you , miss tracy . i was being loyal to the family . mr. a.j . is a member of your family . tracy : mr. a.j . has been a disgrace to this family his entire life . monica : okay , tracy . just drop that . tracy : why ? monica : it 's the last time you are going to insult my son , do you understand ? tracy : really ? monica : mm - hmm . tracy : because i intend to make it my mission to see that he spends the rest of his pathetic life behind bars . carly : why do n't we get out of here and go somewhere quiet , just the three of us as a family , and we 'll sit down and we 'll talk ? michael : i 'm gon na stay with him at least until i know he 's being arraigned . carly : it 's not your responsibility -- michael : mom , it 's my decision . carly : [ sighs ] sonny : he 's a grown man . it 's his decision . let 's go . michael : mom . sonny : guard . michael : i 'll call you later , okay ? carly : you remember that we love you . we love you .

[ connie coos ] luke : hi . hi , there . you willing to risk this ? might be my only chance ... to , uh ... actually give you nourishment . maxie : no , i did all of those things . but that does not make me an unfit mother . alexis : what about the fact that you 're a murderer ? maxie : you think that i murdered someone ? diane : objection ! your honor , counsel , is making inflammatory and false statements . spinelli : if you 're talking about lisa niles , she confessed to that , but she was just covering for patrick drake 's brother , matt . judge walters : sit down , sir . alexis : i 'm not referring to maxie 's false confession in the lisa niles matter , where she attempted to cover up a murder . but mr. spinelli brings up yet another example of maxie 's extremely poor judgment . maxie : who are you talking about ? who did i supposedly kill ? alexis : i 'm referring to your cousin by marriage and best friend , dr. robin scorpio - drake . robin : i 've been up all night trying to calculate how to isolate the cure for jerry jacks from luke spencer 's blood , and ... imagining the moment that i get to go home to patrick and emma . emma : so pretty ! sabrina : do you like it ? emma : i love it ! sabrina : oh , good ! 'cause this is your flower - girl dress . patrick : for our wedding . emma : the wedding ? already ? patrick : yes . sabrina and i are getting married next week . killing robin ? alexis : it was your fault . you said so yourself . i have witnesses . felicia : it was an accident , and you know it ! lulu , how dare you ? maxie did n't kill robin . she loved her . she was too grief - stricken to think straight ! judge walters : [ bangs gavel ] order in my court , please . sit down . maxie : it 's okay . judge walters : anymore outbursts like that , and i 'll have this courtroom cleared . am i understood ? olivia : our son did not know this was coming . sonny : i can tell you right now dante 's not happy about this . dante : you need to tell alexis to back off . this is too much . judge walters : [ bangs gavel ] quiet down . ms. jones , were you or were you not responsible for the death of dr. scorpio - drake ? maxie : yes , your honor , i was . robin : it already feels like forever since halloween and we got to see patrick and emma . when emma hugged me , i mean , i nearly died . i could n't just take off my mask and just tell her that her mom is alive . nikolas : robin , you took quite a risk walking into the hospital like that , even if you were disguised in a costume . robin : nikolas , my family -- they 're so close . nikolas : i know how much you love patrick and emma . i understand why you did it . i do . robin : and after being locked up for so long , it 's almost worse because they 're so close . i mean , all i would have to do is go to the house and get my family back . nikolas : but you understand if you do that , jerry will kill your parents . robin : i know . and with faison and obrecht watching my every single move , it 's nearly impossible . i mean , faison is skulking around upstairs . that 's why i came down here . nikolas : is he harassing you ? robin : just with his presence . i mean , i opened my bedroom door , and he was standing there , staring at me . it reminded me of after the explosion , the first thing i saw was his rodent face . dr. obrecht : schatzi , i was just with your father . britt : in the wall ? dr. obrecht : did n't the prince mention his secret passage ? britt : no , you know , somehow that never came up . so where does this lead ? dr. obrecht : to a labyrinth of catacombs . your father just took me on a stroll down memory lane . britt : memory lane in the sewer ? dr. obrecht : not the sewer . tunnels . the underground network of this place used to be cesar 's home . britt : oh , along with the rats . i could n't think of a better place for him . dr. obrecht : nastiness is unbecoming , britta . no wonder patrick grew to despise you and you had to go searching the hospital lab for another father . brad : do you like it ? felix : where 'd you get it ? brad : epiphany sent it to me . felix : you 're kidding me . brad : yes . i am . felix : [ chuckles ] brad : an accounting assistant i know sent it . i thought it might remind you that i 'm not such a bad dude . felix : oh , okay . just because you changed your costume so we both would n't be cavity sam , that makes you a saint ? brad : it 's a start . felix : yeah , it is . brad : well , with more to come . so , you , uh ... you like it ? felix : i do . i like it a lot . ellie : i have the most fascinating blood sample that could signify major advancements in polonium poison -- [ gasps ] oh . yikes . did i inadvertently interrupt something nonwork - related ? felix : mnh - mnh . no , no , no . i was on a mission from sabrina . thanks for this . brad : yeah , you 're , uh ... you 're welcome . ellie : see ya . brad : you idiot . could your timing be any worse ? felix was finally willing to get close to me again after that whole mess with britt 's baby . britt : speaking of alienating men , i thought you and father were estranged . now you 're telling me he 's taking you on a romantic tour of the catacombs ? dr. obrecht : we are a part of each other -- your father and i . a disagreement wo n't keep us apart for long . britt : i know you , mother , and you 're lying . nikolas : obrecht and faison will be gone soon . once you deliver the polonium cure to jerry , he 'll release your parents , and you can go home . robin : patrick is already engaged . he could get married at any time . emma : you 're getting married next week ? seriously ? sabrina : [ chuckles ] patrick : yes . sabrina and i love each other and we love you so much , we figured why wait to become a family ? let 's do this as soon as we can . sabrina : so we have booked the church , and we 've sent out the invitations , and we have arranged for the reception . patrick : so what do you say ? let 's do this , huh ? emma : yes ! patrick : yes ! sabrina : yes ! patrick : good . emma : but ... patrick : but what ? emma : are spencer and cameron gon na be there ? sabrina : why ? do you want them to be there ? emma : no ! they 'll ruin my new dress the way they ruined my halloween costume . they fought over me and spilled punch on me . and that nice lady helped me get cleaned up . remember ? sabrina : [ speaking spanish ] she 's talking about the woman who did n't seem to speak english . emma : but she did speak english . she talked to me . patrick : she must really like you , because she did n't talk to anybody else . nikolas told me that that 's spencer 's nanny and she works at wyndemere with them , which seems a little bit weird to me still . emma : the lady got sad and ran away . i want to thank her again . can you take me to wyndemere so i can thank her ? we could invite her to the wedding . it would cheer her up . wyndemere because i 've got to go to work . emma : can you take me , sabrina ? [ doorbell rings ] patrick : i 'll get it . sabrina : we 'll see . who is that ? patrick : i think it 's felix . felix : the one and only . may in confer with the bride of the house ? patrick : you may . she 's conferring with the flower girl . let me help you with those . felix : no touching the wedding dresses . no grooms allowed . sabrina : i do n't think there are any rules against the groom touching potential wedding dresses . felix : i 'm not taking any chances . emma : omg ! look ! there 's so many ! felix : and there 's more in the car . sabrina : felix , i thought we were gon na do this at the bridal shop . felix : how plebeian ! i sweet - talked the owner of the shop into letting me borrow the dresses that you tried on without me . sabrina : oh . fancy ! felix : i take my consulting duties very seriously . dr. groom , what are you still doing here ? you definitely can not see the bride in her dress before the wedding . i do n't want anything to mess this up . patrick : okay , okay . i 'm going to work . felix : okay . patrick : believe me . nothing 's gon na stop me from ... sabrina : [ laughs ] patrick : ... marrying sabrina . nikolas : robin , the only way that you can assure that patrick does n't get remarried is if you go home to him yourself . robin : i 'm gon na do that . [ sighs ] according to the calculations i made last night , the cure that luke stole from jerry has been in his system long enough that it 's created the antibodies i need to make another dose . nikolas : well , only you can find a cure for polonium poisoning while being held captive . robin : well , i 'm motivated . i miss my family so much , and i just hated that all of you thought i was dead . nikolas : i know . i know . i felt horrible when i heard the news . i mean ... you 've been such a good friend to me all these years . i 've always felt guilty that i did n't come to your funeral . robin : no , do n't feel guilty . i mean , do n't feel guilty for something that should n't have happened in the first place . and you 're here now , and you 're helping me now . and i am so close to finding the cure . all i have to do is get my hands on some of luke 's blood . nikolas : okay , well , i have some new information that may be helpful . he has a doctor 's appointment today at the hospital . luke : good work , kid . you 're tougher than you look . tracy : it was a bottle feeding , not a high - speed chase . luke : close enough . the inefficiency of my childcare skills are legendary . tracy : well , she 'll probably forgive you . lulu always did . luke : i know . it always worried me how lulu built me up in her mind to more than i really was . tracy : fortunately , i had no illusions . luke : no illusions at all ? tracy : ha ! no . i know exactly how awful you can be . luke : oh . tracy : then again ... i know how amazing you can be , too . dr. obrecht : i 'm not lying to you , britta . yes , your father and i bickered , but he wanted to show me his old shtupping grounds . britt : i - i think you mean `` stomping `` grounds . and if that 's not what you 're referring to , please do not tell me . okay , so , you know , if you are telling the truth , where 's father ? why are you alone ? dr. obrecht : oh , he was awash with nostalgia and elected to spend more time in the catacombs . britt : oh , well , then you do n't mind if i just go and see what father 's up to , do you ? dr. obrecht : why ? [ door opens ] robin : we need your help . nikolas : it involves ben 's deadbeat dad . brad : you know how hard i 've worked to get back into felix 's good graces ? i was just finally getting -- ellie : do n't be hard on me , brad . not today . brad : why ? what makes today different from any other day ? ellie : because today is damian 's custody hearing , which you know perfectly well , because you refused to give me the day off so i could be there with him . brad : oh , yeah . i forgot . what ? you gon na be mad about that all day ? ellie : yes ! i am ! especially because i just got a progress report from elizabeth about the hearing . [ sighs ] and it 's not going well for damian and maxie . spinelli : maxie , stop ! robin 's death was not your fault ! maxie : but it was . it really was . judge walters : [ bangs gavel ] sir , i 'm not gon na warn you again . spinelli : apologies , your honor . judge walters : tell me what happened , ms . jones . maxie : it was february 2012 . and my boyfriend at the time , matt , was mad at me for getting elizabeth webber fired from her job . he said i was a bad person . i wanted robin to make things right between us . you have to come to this party with me . robin : you do know that my mom is in town , right ? maxie : wow . how nice that you have a mother that , `` a , `` actually comes to visit you and , `` b , `` you want to see . robin : no , i 'm not telling you that because -- i 'm telling you because if i was n't doing this research , i would be with my mom . maxie : i 'm sure that anna gives you tons of great advice about love and relationships and stuff , but my mom 's too busy to be bothered . so that leaves me stuck with you . i 'm sorry , mom . i never should have said that . [ voice breaking ] i 'm so sorry . judge walters : ms. jones , please continue . maxie : right . um ... i kept insisting that robin go to this party with me . and she said no . i did n't take that very well . robin : look , even if i could go , which i ca n't , i ca n't make things right between you and matt and elizabeth . you have to do that yourself . maxie : you 're really not gon na go to this party with me ? robin : no . maxie : wow . i ca n't believe you 're making this whole thing into some teachable moment about how to be a better person when we both know you 'd rather be here working on headache medicine for jason . robin : maxie , you are not a bad person , okay ? and this is not a lost cause . maxie : honestly , robin , you are so selfish sometimes . my purse got caught on the gas valve , and i yanked it and broke the gas line . i caused the explosion that killed robin . she 's dead because of me . and the last thing i ever said to her was , `` you can be so selfish sometimes . `` which could n't be farther from the truth . robin was wonderful and brilliant and incredibly generous . she was like my sister and my best friend . and i will never be able to tell her how sorry i am . first , and then i 'll give brad a call . robin : thank you . nikolas : start packing , frau verruckt . if all this works out , you and gandalf the gray will be out of here . robin : and i will be home . dr. obrecht : do n't get ahead of yourself , robin . you 've been gone a long time . when patrick does finally see you again , how do you know he wo n't choose sabrina over you ? hmm ? sabrina : oh , emma , you 're so beautiful . emma : i am ? felix : you look like you stepped off a page of i do magazine . you are the most fabulous flower girl i 've ever laid my eyes on . emma : thank you . sabrina , i love my dress . sabrina : oh ! muñequita , you look so pretty . i 'm so lucky to have you in my wedding and in my life . emma : me too . tracy : dr. drake ! patrick : hey . tracy : good to see a familiar face . since monica 's been fired , i do n't have any clout around here . patrick : it 's good to see you , too . i see you finally got the daughter you 've always wanted . luke : [ chuckles ] tracy : [ chuckles ] that 's funny . actually , we 're here to see dr. beckett . patrick : dr. beckett just walked into emergency surgery . i 'm sorry . somebody should have told you that . is there anything i can do for you ? tracy : uh , well , actually , we , uh ... we want to find out if luke 's polonium poisoning has been cured . patrick : oh , i 'm sure dr. beckett explained to you that -- luke : yeah . uh , yes , doctor . he explained that it 's incurable , but he was wrong . there is a cure . a brilliant doctor has been working towards this serum for the last year and a half . patrick : have n't heard anything about it . tracy : she maintains a very low profile . luke : yes . i took the cure a few weeks ago , and i feel great . tracy : we just need to know if it 's working . patrick : well , um , well , if it is , this doctor sounds like a genius . i 'd like to meet her . robin : patrick and i are soul mates , okay . nothing and no one can get in the way of that . dr. obrecht : that 's a romantic notion . but your soul mate had sex with my daughter mere months after he thought you were dead . that 's ... hardly everlasting devotion . robin : you do n't know what you 're talking about . nikolas : do n't let her get to you . she 's just bitter because faison ca n't stand the sight of her . dr. obrecht : but certainly you ca n't deny that patrick connected to britta through that baby . and he was devastated when he found out he was n't the father . brad : what 's the big deal whether your boyfriend gets the baby or not ? spinelli and maxie were gon na let dante and lulu think the kid was theirs , right ? now all of a sudden they want it back ? ellie : you have no right to judge . you told dante and lulu the truth about the baby when it was none of your business . brad : hey , i did it to prove to felix that i 'm a better man than he thinks i am . ellie : you want to prove yourself to felix ? try showing some interest in your own child . [ cell phone rings ] brad : oh , you 're -- ellie : you should probably get that . perhaps it 's your baby 's mom calling to say the same thing . brad : britt , this does n't have anything to do with the baby , does it ? britt : what ? of course not . i need to know if luke spencer 's blood sample is in the lab . brad : yeah , ellie 's working on it . or at least she should be . why ? hello ? robin : is it there ? britt : yes . robin : great . then i 'm gon na go to the lab and start working on it right away . dr. obrecht : you 're not going anywhere , weisse maus . diane : is ms . davis finished , or does she want to accuse my client of something else she did n't do ? alexis : no , i - i have no further questions . judge walters : your witness , mrs. miller . diane : thank you ... your honor . ms. jones , did you intentionally kill dr. robin scorpio - drake ? maxie : no , of course not . diane : so you 're not a murderer . and what happened to dr. scorpio - drake was a horrific accident and nothing more ? maxie : yes , it was an accident . diane : thank you . nothing further . judge walters : i think we can all use a break . [ gavel bangs ] 10-minute recess . bailiff : all rise . felicia : maxie , i 'm so sorry you had to go through that . alexis should have never brought that up . maxie : well , obviously lulu will do anything to prove i 'm an unfit mother . spinelli : well , she did n't . all she accomplished was showing the judge just how desperate she and dante are . felicia : come on . let 's go outside . go out with us . take a little break . maxie : no , no . um , you two go . i need to ask diane something . felicia : are you sure ? okay . all right . dante : i 'm gon na go take a break . lulu : okay , i 'm gon na come with you . dante : no , no . just do n't bother . lulu : dante , wait . maxie : lulu , how could you do that ? [ voice breaking ] how could you use robin 's death against me ? dante : i want to keep our daughter . i just do n't want to do it like this . sonny : yeah , you do . i know it does n't seem like the thing to do , but you know what ? you got to keep your kids close , otherwise you 're gon na lose them . maxie : you know how much i loved robin . you know how much i suffered over her death . you were the one who -- who helped me realize it was an accident , the one who helped me make peace with it . and now you 're gon na hold it against me ? lulu : yes . yes , you grieved robin . and then you turned around and you lied to me about my own child . you let us fall in love with that baby , maxie . and now you 're trying to take her away from us . you are trying to deprive connie of the only mother and father that she 's ever known . it 's like -- it 's like you 're incapable of empathy . you have no idea the damage that you 're doing until it 's too late , and then you just throw your hands up in the air and you say , `` oops , i did n't mean to . `` maxie : no , i know that i screwed up , but i was n't being malicious . i was trying to do the right thing . lulu : but you never know what the right thing is , do you , maxie ? why do you even want connie ? you 're only gon na hurt her , just like you hurt me and robin . dr. obrecht : certainly you have n't forgotten jerry 's rule . if anyone sees you before he 's cured , your parents die . nikolas : we 're all aware of the rules here . dr. obrecht : yet you snuck out of here on halloween and risked the lives of die mutter and der vater . robin : i was in costume . yes , i wanted to see my family with my own eyes , but i did not tell them who i was , okay ? i followed the rules . dr. obrecht : sentiment makes you weak and careless . britta will go . she can bring your blood sample back here . robin : you 're a doctor . certainly you have n't forgotten that it takes complex equipment to process blood -- equipment that i do n't have here . dr. obrecht : you 're a prince . buy her what she needs . robin : no , that will take too long . jerry is already running out of time . so what 's it gon na be ? you want jerry to die , or are you gon na let me go to gh ? ellie : why did dr. westbourne want to know if luke spencer 's blood sample was here ? brad : how should i know ? [ cell phone rings ] brad : [ sighs ] now what ? britt : i need a favor from you -- a big one . brad : [ sighs ] felix : okay , miss bride , let 's see what you got . here i 'm spinnin ' ' round , ' round , runnin ' into walls again , again i do n't seem to know what 's comin ' till it knocks me in my head , and i go do n't waste your breath on something you 'll regret i 'm bored of getting upset you need to cut me loose your fears become a noose wrapped too tight around my neck [ vocalizing ] sabrina : this one is n't too bad . what do you think ? felix : um , you look like a las vegas drag queen channeling a bad scarlett o'hara . sabrina : emma , what do you think ? emma : uh , what he said . sabrina : it kind of is a lot of fabric . felix : a lot of fabric ? honey , there 's enough here for an entire thanksgiving day float . i mean , what were you thinking ? sabrina : well , i mean , at least this one 's comfortable . sort of . felix : no . no . i mean what were you thinking about any of these ? i mean , have i taught you nothing ? sabrina : felix , these are the only dresses that can be ready by next week . what am i gon na do ? emma : what about a dress like this ? tracy : meeting that genius doctor could be a problem . patrick : why ? tracy : she 's not in the country . patrick : so ? what 's her name ? luke : she 's very secretive . she keeps all her work under lock and key . patrick : even more evasive than usual , luke . what 's going on ? luke : well , it 's a complicated situation . tracy : uh , you know what ? it 's completely off the point . i do n't care about the doctor . i care about luke . and i need to know how much , if any , polonium is still in his blood stream . patrick : i will say this . luke , you look very healthy . luke : thank you . i feel great . but , you know , tracy -- she wants actual medical confirmation that i 'm not at death 's door . patrick : okay , well , let 's go take some blood , and we 'll see what we got . tracy : ellie trout already took blood . could you just do me a favor , please , and go get the lab results now ? brad : how far have you gotten with the analysis on luke spencer 's blood ? ellie : i 'm just completing it now . did dr. westbourne say something ? brad : okay , you 're done here . get out . ell : you 're firing me ? brad : no . of course not . i 'm just giving you the rest of the day off . ellie : why ? brad : what do you mean `` why ? `` you were telling me about how worried you are about damian and his custody case . i 'm not heartless . ellie : yes , you are . brad : look , i told you before i 'm trying to be a better man , okay . but if you insist on looking a gift horse in the mouth , it 'd be easier to fire you . ellie : okay ! no . no , no , no . i mean , if you truly mean it , i 'll go . brad : uh , w - what are you doing ? ellie : well , i 'm properly storing the blood samples so i can take the analysis upstairs . brad : no , no , no . l - leave everything . i 'll take care of it . ellie : no , brad . protocol dictates -- brad : just go before i change my mind , all right ? ! ellie : okay . okay . okay . brad : um ... you 're welcome . ellie : thank you , brad . robin : is the launch here ? i 'm ready to go . nikolas : yes , they 're waiting for us . britt : i 'm gon na stay here . i need to feed ben , and someone has to look after this woman . nikolas : all right , let 's go . dr. obrecht : communicating with anyone is verboten . if someone finds out you 're there and reports anything to the authorities , your parents are as good as dead . robin : do n't worry . i 'm not going to do anything to endanger my parents . especially when i 'm so close to being able to go home . nikolas : ready ? robin : i 've been ready for a long time . maxie : how dare you ? ! lulu : how dare i ? are you serious , maxie ? ! dante : come on . let 's go . let 's go . over here . what the heck was that ? lulu : she grabbed me ! alexis : you 're gon na have to calm down . fighting with maxie is not gon na help your case any more than making her out to be a killer did . lulu : no , we had to do it . we ca n't let the courts take our baby . alexis : okay , okay . listen , what 's done is done . right now i 'm gon na have to do some repair work , and i 'm gon na need to put you on the stand . can you handle it ? dante : can we go sit down for a second , catch our breath ? come on . spinelli : are you all right ? maxie : i will be once we get custody of our baby . spinelli : well , i 'm sad to say it 's not looking good for us . not because of the ridiculous allegation about robin 's death , but because of elizabeth 's damning testimony . maxie : well , then let 's turn things around . let 's go after lulu as hard and as heartlessly as she went after me . it 's time to bring up her past . let the judge see how fit she is to be a mother . maxie 's account of dr. robin scorpio- drake 's death . do you agree it was a terrible accident ? lulu : yes , it was an accident ... caused by maxie 's carelessness . and robin was killed . maxie has a lot of accidents . tripping over that dog that wandered into her apartment -- that was an accident , too . but chasing the dog when she was supposed to be on bed rest was carelessness . she knew that getting up would endanger our baby , and she did it anyway . that carelessness killed our baby . so what happens if she 's careless with this one ? could she cause another accident ? could connie die because of her carelessness ? alexis : i have no further questions . lulu , you can step down . diane : uh , i 'm so sorry , your honor . but since mrs. falconeri is on the stand , i have a few questions i 'd like to ask her . spinelli : ellie . i thought brad would n't let you leave work . ellie : he changed his mind for some reason . brad : who 's that ? nikolas : someone who needs to work here for a while . you spoke to britt . brad : yeah , but what is this all about ? britt did n't say much on the phone . nikolas : that 's -- that 's funny . you 're not even curious about your own son , but you 're already asking questions about this . where are your priorities , cooper ? brad : i 'm the lab manager . this is my responsibility . i ca n't just let -- nikolas : your child is n't ? you know what ? get out and make sure no one comes in . brad : but ... this is my lab ! nikolas : this is my hospital . i 'm its greatest benefactor , so if you want to keep your job , do as you 're told . now go on . brad : [ sighs ] fine ! luke spencer 's blood sample -- right there . i 'll be outside . robin : [ sighs ] nikolas : you okay ? what 's wrong ? robin : [ sighs ] this lab , this ... this is the last place that patrick saw me alive . sabrina : this is such a beautiful dress . but this was your mommy 's dress . it would n't be right for me . besides , we should save it in case you want to wear it when you get married . emma : i can wear it ? sabrina : yeah . if you want to . i always wanted to wear my mommy 's wedding dress . i used to dream about it all the time . felix : wait . you did ? sabrina : yeah . my , um ... my mommy would show me pictures of her wedding , and she would tell me how happy she was when she married my father . felix : show me those pictures stat . we 'll find a dress just like it . sabrina : see , that 's the problem , is my father put every picture of my mother away , and , um , would n't let me have any when he shipped me off . emma : why ? sabrina : because he was sad . emma : why ? sabrina : because she died . emma : your mommy died when you were little ? sabrina : yeah . emma : like me ? sabrina : yeah . just like you . emma : that 's how you know so much . that 's how you know that nobody , not even you , can take my mommy 's place . patrick : i feel like i should tell you i 'm not a specialist with radiation , but if your lab results are ready , i 'll take a look and see how much polonium 's left in your system . luke : terrific . let 's just get the results and see if this doctor is the genius we think she is . patrick : i 'll go down to the lab now . luke : thanks . robin : being in this lab again is just ... strange . nikolas : are you gon na be okay ?

britt : so , what 's going on in the financial world today ? nikolas : i do n't think you 'd be interested unless you 're in the market for cattle futures . britt : no , thanks . i guess i 'm still holding out for that one day that i get to see you jump up and call your broker , yelling , `` sell ! sell ! `` nikolas : you have a very strange sense of humor . so , what about julian 's rag ? from the look of the front page there , it seems sonny has landed himself in some hot water . britt : well , i ca n't speak for sonny , but my mother , on the other hand , is smack in the middle of a scandal ... again . dr. obrecht : no - good schwester . brings me nothing but trouble . well , well , well , what have we here ? nurse webber , do you care to explain yourself ? elizabeth : oh , i 'm not on duty . dr. obrecht : fascinating . but i was referring to mr. doe . i thought he was discharged yesterday . what are you still doing in my hospital ? anna : well , yes , of course i realize there 's an apb . out on franco . i 'm the one who issued it . but i 've just received new information that he aided nina clay in the abduction of ava jerome 's infant , so i have to have the bulletin amended . yes ? thank you . i want them found . lucy : anna , i am glad i found you . anna : lucy , no , i ca n't -- i have my hands full . i -- what do you want ? lucy : i need to see duke . duke : roll over on sonny ? what do you mean ? alexis : you have to testify against him . carly : sonny . sonny : i ca n't believe baldwin had you arrested . carly : i 'm fine . i will live . it 's no surprise . he has a recording of me conspiring with you to cover up what happened to aj . everyone at the wedding heard it , including michael . sonny : i lost him , carly . i lost our son . kiki : excuse me . rosalie : oh , crap . rosalie : um , the thing is , we had a lot to drink . kiki : what the hell are you doing ? michael : what does it look like ? rosalie and i are in my bed in my apartment having sex ... again . and we 'd like to get back to what we were doing before you interrupted , so if you do n't mind ... kiki : michael . michael ! michael : can you close the door on your way out ? thanks . anna : yeah , i 'm sorry , lucy . you ca n't see duke right now . lucy : really ? so , one day , duke is the love of your life , and the next , he makes one teeny - weeny , tiny , little mistake -- not that it 's been proven in the court of law -- but he makes this mistake , and now , all of a sudden , you see him as a criminal ? well , let me tell you something . duke has rights . duke can have visitors , unless , somehow , you have turned this entire place into guantanamo without letting me know . anna : no , uh , that 's not what i meant . duke can , indeed , have visitors . lucy : oh . well , then i do n't think i understand . why ca n't i see him ? anna : because he 's with his lawyer right now . duke : testify against sonny ? what -- do you mean at his trial ? alexis : if it comes down to that . it may be the only option that you have to keep you out of prison . now , i can talk to scott -- see if i can get him to make a deal -- immunity in exchange for your testimony . i think the d.a . will probably do it . it 's sonny scott wants -- not you . duke : why would baldwin even need my testimony ? does n't he already have sonny 's taped confession ? alexis : any lawyer worth his salt wants an airtight case , which means corroborating testimony -- yours , specifically . duke : so , if i want to go free ... all i have to do is put sonny away . carly : okay , okay . you do n't know that you lost michael . he has always been able to forgive . sonny : i do know 'cause he tried to kill me . he -- he wanted me dead , carly . carly : okay , i know . dante told me that he showed up at the brownstone , and he pulled a gun on you , but he did n't go through with it , sonny . sonny : he hates me ... and he has every right to hate me 'cause i took his father away from him . carly : he hates me , too , okay ? he hates me , too , which is why i got to get out of here , because his whole world is falling apart . sonny , you did n't -- you did n't see him at the haunted star . i mean , you did n't see his face when franco played that videotape . franco -- i ca n't believe that he was taping me the whole time , and i let him . i let him . i put that camera around my neck . i wore that stupid , ugly necklace everywhere because i wanted to make him happy . and i -- and i ignored all your warnings . i insisted that i could trust him . i handed him the ammunition to blow our life apart , and michael 's paying the price . sonny : not your fault . and you want me to tell you the truth -- it 's not really franco 's fault . it 's all my fault . dr. obrecht : mr. doe , you might want to get a move - on . after noon , the hospital will charge you for another day . jason : take it easy , dr. o. i 'm on my way out . it 's just taking a little bit longer to get there . elizabeth : we 're on our way to admitting right now to deliver his discharge papers , and then jake will be nothing but a distant memory . jason : so , sadly , i guess this is goodbye . dr. obrecht : i 'm glad to hear it . as much as i 've enjoyed your humor , in this hospital , i 'm the one who makes the jokes . jason : oh , i got it . i got it . dr. obrecht : is it safe to assume that you spoke with social services ? you 've found more appropriate accommodations and will no longer be freeloading off this hospital ? elizabeth : actually , he 's coming home with me . britt : according to this article , it 's possible my mother helped nina escape with that baby . nikolas : ugh . your mother is an accessory to yet another kidnapping ? ca n't say i 'm surprised . nothing she does shocks me at this point . britt : yeah , i wish i could say the same . whenever i think she 's sunk as far as she can , she manages to go even lower . nikolas : well , look on the bright side . maybe she 'll be so distracted with this nina situation , she wo n't notice you 're not at work . britt : why would n't i be at work ? i have plenty of time . nikolas : no , you do n't ... because i 'm taking you back to bed . britt : do n't you have some very important financial business to transact ? nikolas : i 'm not in the market for cattle shares , okay ? [ doorbell rings ] britt : mm . is n't alfred off this morning ? nikolas : i do n't care . who cares ? they 'll go away . [ doorbell rings ] britt : or not . nikolas : remind me to never give alfred time off again . yes ? may i help you ? agent sloane : well , i certainly hope so . agent sloane : nikolas cassadine ? nikolas : yes , that 's right . agent sloane : special agent kyle sloane . i 'm an investigator with the justice department . nikolas : what can i do for you , agent sloane ? agent sloane : well , it might take awhile to explain . may i come in ? nikolas : yes , of course . agent sloane : thank you . nikolas : this is , uh , dr. britt westbourne . agent sloane : it 's a pleasure to meet you both . i apologize for showing up on your doorstep unannounced . i hope i was n't interrupting anything . britt : oh , nothing that ca n't wait . nikolas : [ chuckles ] what can we do for you ? agent sloane : well , i 'm here to discuss a matter of national security . it 's about your uncle victor cassadine . dr. obrecht : nurse webber , i did n't know you made a habit of taking in strays . elizabeth : i do n't . jason : elizabeth made an exception in my case . dr. obrecht : i certainly wo n't miss your insolence . i can only assume nurse webber finds it charming . otherwise , she would n't open her home to a nameless indigent . elizabeth : jake had no place to go , and you 've been chomping at the bit to discharge him . he 's clearly still recovering . i was n't gon na send him to a shelter in his condition . dr. obrecht : i see . you 've taken pity on his plight . elizabeth : frankly , i do n't see how any of this is your business . dr. obrecht : as long as you 're taking care of mr. doe on your own time , and it does n't interfere with your duties here at general hospital , then i suppose i have no objection . jason : you could object all you want , but nobody cares . dr. obrecht : do n't think you can neglect hospital policy . mr. doe needs a wheelchair . we do n't want him getting injured and suing this hospital for millions of dollars . by the way , we have n't forgotten your bill . jason : oh , well , thank you for all you 've done . i 'll send you a postcard . have a good day . wow . that woman . [ chuckles ] lucy : duke is with his lawyer ? anna : yeah , mm - hmm . you should know . you 're the one who made the arrangement . lucy : yep , i did , and that 's actually why i wanted to see duke , 'cause i wanted to tell him not to worry because i have hired the very best lawyer for him money can buy . anna : yep , indeed . yes , alexis is undoubtedly an excellent lawyer . i 'm just curious why you took it upon yourself to hire her for him . alexis : you know how this works . this is standard procedure in any immunity deal . in order to save yourself , you have to give up somebody else . duke : well , i do n't think it 's right to abdicate responsibility for my actions . i committed a crime . i willingly gave sonny a false alibi . alexis : not necessarily . duke : what are you saying ? that i was forced or coerced ? are you suggesting that ? alexis : not overtly . sonny is the don of the port charles mafia with all the power that that implies . i can argue that you perjured yourself because you feared for your life . duke : i did not fear for my life . and i 'm not gon na say that . i 'm sorry . i will not turn on sonny . i will not do that . sonny : you kept warning me that if i kept pushing this thing between us , that i was playing with fire . that if -- you know , you made it clear franco 's a time bomb , and he would love nothing more than to retaliate . carly : i know what you and shawn were planning . you -- you were , um , gon na kill franco before the wedding . i wish you had succeeded . sonny : i thought i could control the whole situation . i was too headstrong , too arrogant ... and too afraid to lose what i had with you . kiki : [ breathing heavily ] michael : you know , i told you to leave . rosalie and i would like our privacy . kiki : i 'm not going anywhere . rosalie : i 'll be the one to go . michael : you do n't have to go . rosalie : you and kiki have a lot to sort out . kiki , listen . kiki : oh , do n't even . i do n't want to hear anything from you , rosalie . from the very beginning , you did nothing but try to cause trouble for michael and me . michael : you know , it 's not rosalie 's fault that she heard you and morgan keeping secrets behind my back , and it 's not her fault that you two could n't be honest with me . so if you 're gon na make accusations , if you 're pissed that i 'm sleeping with somebody else ... you got not one to blame but yourself . michael : hey , you do n't have to leave on kiki 's account . rosalie : i 'm leaving because i do n't want this to get any uglier than it already is . michael : nothing that happened between us was ugly . rosalie : i 'll just , uh -- i 'll go get changed in the bathroom . i 'm really sorry . kiki : do n't even . get out ! michael . michael : well , what do you want ? what are you even doing here ? kiki : well , i came here to see if you were okay , and you were n't responding to any of my texts or morgan 's . michael : of course you 'd know that . kiki : we were both very worried about you , michael . i came here to talk to you , and i find you in bed with that tramp ? michael : she 's not a tramp . her name 's rosalie , and she 's my friend , okay ? so do n't ever disrespect her again . kiki : okay , um , look , i know that you are upset , and i know that you are angry with me because i did n't tell you about what happened between aj and sonny , and you have every right to be . michael : you know what ? i do n't really need your permission to feel however the hell i want . kiki : i know that you feel betrayed , but this -- michael , this is what you chose as payback ? i lie to you , and you have sex with someone else ? michael : you know , i happen to like rosalie , and we have a lot more in common than i ever realized , so why should n't i sleep with her ? kiki : because i 'm your girlfriend ... and we love each other . michael : i do n't love you . not anymore . carly : `` had `` ? you 're saying it 's over between us ? sonny : i do n't want it to be . it 's just -- look at us . look at -- look where we 're at , you know , at what we 've done to our family . carly : the night before i was supposed to marry franco , you said something to me . do you remember ? you said you loved me . i love you , too . and i should -- i should have told you . i love you , sonny . sonny : i love you , too . but sometimes ... love just is n't enough . alexis : i 'm gon na be very honest with you . if you do n't offer testimony against sonny , i do n't know that i 'm gon na be able to mitigate the charges against you . duke : i gave sonny my word . alexis : well , i admire your willingness to stand by your actions -- i really do -- but unless you give sonny up , you 're going down with him . you 've already lost a lot of your life to prison . are you willing to lose more ? duke : no , damn it . of course i 'm not . alexis : this is the only way to save yourself . lucy : why did i hire a lawyer for duke ? well , he 's my friend . i think that 's enough , but if that 's not enough , need i mention the fact that he was very , very supportive of me when i was arrested for -- i 'm not gon na mention exactly what i was arrested for , but the point is he was there for me . he had my back , and so i am gon na be here for him , and i 'm gon na have his back . do you have a problem with that ? agent sloane : i 'm sorry to come by so early . nikolas : no , no , no . no , not at all . we were just finishing up breakfast , were n't we ? britt : mm - hmm . nikolas : please . agent sloane : thank you . nikolas : can i get you anything ? agent sloane : no . no . i 'm sure you 've heard about the recent findings concerning the wsb . prior to his death , your uncle victor cassadine was the agency 's director . under his auspices , there were a number of off - the - books projects , agents working outside the law , leading multiple unsanctioned ops . nikolas : yes , i 'm aware of them . agent sloane : the justice department is investigating corruption inside the wsb and how it was allowed to flourish in the first place . nikolas : i can assure you , uh , agent sloane , i knew nothing about my uncle 's actions , nor do i condone any of them . agent sloane : i have no doubt . britt : does nikolas need to call his attorney ? agent sloane : no . there 's no need to call ms . davis . i 'm aware that your aunt is the family 's attorney . during the course of our investigation , we 've learned quite a lot about victor cassadine 's relatives . nikolas : then i trust that you realize alexis and i have never participated in any of the cassadines ' criminal undertakings ? agent sloane : i can assure you that neither you nor ms . davis are in any trouble . nikolas : then what can i do for you , agent sloane ? agent sloane : as a matter of fact , nothing . but dr. westbourne is another story . elizabeth : i 'm pretty sure that was the fastest i 've ever seen admitting discharge someone . jason : well , it 's not hard to fill out paperwork when all you know is your first name . thank you . besides , i think your presence helped push things along . elizabeth : oh , i doubt it . jason : um , you were staring over the clerk 's shoulder the entire time . i know he rushed it , and i know i find you to be highly persuasive . elizabeth : oh , really ? because so far , i have n't been able to persuade you not to climb those stairs when you were n't ready or not to go walking too far too soon . and if you had it your way , i think you would have checked out of the hospital last night and been sleeping on the streets . jason : see , that 's my point exactly . you persuaded me not to do that . even gave me a place to crash . are you sure it 's okay that i 'm staying with you and your sons ? elizabeth : it 's more than okay . my boys are really excited to meet you . jason : yeah , well , they might change their mind when they find out their mom 's new boarder ca n't even remember his own name . elizabeth : well , can you remember luke skywalker ? han solo ? jason : vaguely . elizabeth : then you know enough to play `` star wars `` with aiden . and as for cameron , when he found out that you might be helping out around the house , he ran to the closet , got his toolbox , and announced that he was gon na be your apprentice . and if possible , can he just show you how to swing a hammer ? jason : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . elizabeth : what ? jason : will you back up ? who 's that ? elizabeth : who 's who ? jason : alan quartermaine . elizabeth : oh , dr. quartermaine . he was our chief of staff . jason : like dr. o , huh ? elizabeth : well , technically , yes , but he was nothing like dr. obrecht . dr. quartermaine was a wonderful man . jason : he was ? elizabeth : he passed away a few years ago . jason : any relationship to , uh , the cardiologist i saw on my chart -- monica quartermaine ? elizabeth : yeah . yeah , he was her husband . and he 's , um -- was jason 's father . why do you ask ? do you -- do you recognize him ? jason : i do n't know . his face just looks familiar to me . so does his . elizabeth : that 's edward quartermaine . jason : so does hers . elizabeth : that 's lila quartermaine , alan 's parents . jason : she has very kind eyes . elizabeth : yeah , she 's as sweet as edward was cantankerous . unfortunately , they passed away , too . they did so much for this hospital . it just seemed fitting to hang their photos in this place of honor . you know , they were very prominent people in port charles . maybe that 's why they seem familiar to you . kiki : you do n't love me anymore ? you do n't know what you 're saying . you 're angry and upset . michael : you know , agreeing that you completely betrayed me is not gon na make me forgive you . kiki : okay , what i did was wrong , but it was for the right reasons . michael : you know , how many times did i tell you -- how many times did i tell you that honesty is the most important thing to me in a relationship ? kiki : i know you did . michael : that 's why you moved out before , when you helped franco hide from the police , and you did n't tell me . kiki : oh , come on . i helped franco because he was innocent , and because of that , he ended up saving your mom 's life . michael : yeah , franco is such a great guy . that show he put on at the wedding completely justifies your faith . no wonder you lied for him , just like you lied for your mother the murderer , just like you lied for my fath -- just like you lied for sonny , the other murderer . kiki : i was n't protecting sonny . i was protecting you . michael : no , you lied because it was easier than dealing with the truth because you wanted to control what i knew , rather than let me make my own decisions . kiki : i did n't want you to hurt anymore , okay ? i - i thought i was being kinder by keeping silent . michael : `` kinder `` ? sonny killed aj . that is the fundamental truth of my life . how could i love someone that would hide something like that from me ? why would i want to be with someone like that ? kiki : so what are you saying , michael ? are you saying because i lied , it 's over ? michael : yes , kiki . that is what i 'm saying . carly : i do n't ever want to believe that there can never be something between us , but ... we always knew that we would end in disaster , and not just for ourselves , but for our kids , as well , so ... [ sighs ] sonny : you 're right . i - i just thought about everything that i wanted , and i ignored everything else . carly : well , what happened to aj is on you , but everything else is my fault , sonny . sonny : what do you mean ? carly : when i told franco that you killed aj , i betrayed our family . i betrayed our family . i betrayed myself . i handed you , me , and michael over to franco . and then i defended him to you . the whole time , he was setting us up . sonny : i should have killed that bastard the second he slithered back into town . carly : sonny , i insisted that i could trust him , okay ? and you , michael , morgan , hell , even josslyn -- even josslyn warned me . but god forbid i admit that i was wrong about franco 's change of heart . sonny : why did n't you listen ? carly : i do n't know . that 's not true . [ sighs ] sonny , everything has just been so ... gray since jason died , and i miss him so much , and so there 's franco , you know ? and everyone thinks that he 's jason 's twin , and i have all this grief and this loss in my head , and i just started to fantasize that -- that maybe that a sliver of franco could replace the void that was left by jason . sonny : but it 's a lie . franco 's not -- carly : i know it 's a lie , okay ? i know all that , but , you know , it was too late by then . i 'd already convinced myself that there was good in franco , and i could n't be wrong , okay ? i could n't be wrong , sonny . i had to buy in to the garbage of that damn brain tumor because i had to justify being with a man who could do those horrible things , who could hurt our son . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry that i ever argued with you about franco . i 'm sorry that i said that you were jealous , and i 'm sorry that i begged for his life over and over again . if i would have listened to you and stayed away from him , we would n't be here right now . sonny : i accept your apology . carly : thank you . sonny : you got to stop blaming yourself . franco needs to be put down like the dog that he is . he 's out there free . we 're locked up in here . carly : well , no one knows where franco is . sonny , he helped nina clay steal ava 's baby , and they skipped town . sonny : franco has the baby ? carly : that 's what nina 's mother said . sonny : son of a bitch ! carly : detective west told morgan and i at the hospital . it 's bad . sonny : you know what ? it 's killing me that i ca n't be out there searching for this baby . carly : i 'm so sorry . [ sighs ] lucy : duke , i ca n't tell you how good -- ow ! -- it is to see you . look at you . you -- hey ! you 're not in one of those , um , jumpsuit thingies . that 's good they did n't put you in one of those , but are you okay ? you look -- i do n't know -- a little bit pale , maybe thin . are you hungr -- you need food . you 're hungry , are n't you ? could you go run and get him some of those stale doughnuts you guys always have around ? duke : lucy , i 'm fine . thank you . thank you . lucy : you are such a liar . not -- not about sonny . i - i did n't mean about sonny . i meant that you were lying about the food , and you know what -- alexis : lucy , relax . lucy : thank you . so , you had a chance to speak with alexis . duke : yes , i have . thank you very much for hiring her to represent me . i greatly appreciate it . lucy : well , of course . i mean , you are one of my closest friends , and -- and that is what friends do for friends . they help each other . duke : you have gone above and beyond . lucy : well , i wanted you to have the very best money could buy , and alexis is just that , and i know she 's gon na help you . right ? alexis , you are gon na be able to get him out of this mess , are n't you ? alexis : i could . unfortunately , duke wo n't let me . britt : me ? you think i can help you ? agent sloane : yes , dr. westbourne . britt : oh , i 'm sorry . i do n't understand . i do n't have any affiliation with the wsb . what does your investigation have to do with me ? agent sloane : we 've sifted through every file the wsb generated while victor cassadine was director . one in particular contained some very sensitive information . that 's where you come in . britt : sensitive information about me ? agent sloane : your father , cesar faison , and what robert scorpio and anna devane did to him . jason : you say the quartermaines are well - known . maybe you 're right . maybe i recognize their picture from a paper or something . we do n't even know if i live around here . elizabeth : but maybe this means you do . i mean , if you recognize them , there 's got to be a reason , right ? jason : wish i knew what it was . elizabeth : i ca n't imagine how frustrating this must be , thinking that you recognize these faces and have no way of putting it into context . jake , we 're gon na find out who you are . jason : this name -- it 's , um -- i do n't know . it feels , uh ... appropriate . i do n't know . i like it . [ chuckles ] i 'm almost tempted to use it , but , uh , that would be silly . i mean , i - i doubt these people would want some stranger implying that they 're a part of his family , so ... guess we 're stuck with `` doe `` for right now . shall we ? what do you say ? let 's go . kiki : it 's over ? michael : yeah , that 's what i said . kiki : well , there are things that i need to get , michael . michael : you can get them later . or , better yet , i 'll send them to you and morgan at the brownstone . kiki : there is nothing going on between me and morgan . michael : am i supposed to believe that ? after all , you confided in morgan , not me . who knows what else you 've been doing with him ? kiki : no , you 're wrong . michael : am i ? you know , when you were with morgan , i was the one you talked to . i was the one who understood you . then when we 're supposedly together , he 's the one you talk to . he 's the one you tell all your secrets to . kiki : that 's not what it 's like . michael : maybe you just want the brother you ca n't have . maybe it adds some drama and makes you feel a little more important . regardless -- regardless , it 's , uh -- it 's morgan 's turn now , and he 's more than welcome to you . kiki : [ sobs ] okay , um , i know that you have had a lot of shocks in the past 24 hours , and i know that you are very confused right now . michael : do n't forget to leave your key . kiki : if there 's one thing i can promise you is true , is that everything i did , i did because i love you . and if you ask me , i think it is pretty sad how fast you can just throw away everything that we have . carly : sonny , anna devane will find ava 's baby . sonny : well , i 'm not quite sure , especially with franco anywhere near that kid . and now the commissioner 's , uh , too busy trying to convict her boyfriend . carly : what ? sonny : duke was arrested for giving me an alibi the night of aj 's murder . and you know what ? he 's talking to alexis right now . god knows what she 's trying to get him to say . carly : what do you mean ? sonny : well , she came in here , and she said she 's only gon na help duke and not me . carly : i do n't care what alexis says . duke would never betray you . lucy : duke , what is alexis talking about ? why wo n't you let her help you ? why would he refuse to cooperate ? alexis : lucy , you know anything my client tells me is confidential . lucy : oh , stop . you know i 'm here . i 'm on his side . i 'm -- i 'm just here to help you . anna : okay , here 's the thing . you 'll have to excuse me . i 've got to go over to the hospital and interview a suspect . i ca n't be party to this conversation . duke : anna . anna : you seem to be in good hands . nikolas : what robert and anna did to faison ? they arrested him . britt : it was my understanding that my father was sent back to steinmauer supermax prison in switzerland . agent sloane : your information is wrong . cesar faison is not at steinmauer . britt : wait , are you saying my mother 's right ? agent sloane : excuse me ? britt : my mother told me that victor cassadine gave her information suggesting that my father never went to steinmauer . agent sloane : that 's correct . victor cassadine 's file indicates that cesar faison has not been at steinmauer for some time . however , we have reason to believe that the copy of the file victor cassadine gave your mother was redacted , and the file i have supplies a more complete picture . it suggests that mr. scorpio and ms . devane murdered your father . britt : you 're saying robert scorpio and anna devane really did kill my father ? agent sloane : that 's the implication , which is unacceptable . scorpio is still an active agent with the wsb , and commissioner devane still retains wsb credentials . the u.s. government will not tolerate rogue agents going into business for themselves , and my department will bring these agents to justice . regrettably , we 've been unable to locate scorpio , but i intend to pursue a case against commissioner devane . nikolas : and you propose to charge anna with what ? agent sloane : fraud , corruption , murder . and i need dr. westbourne 's help to do it . anna : so , i 'm at the hospital now . if madeline reeves has any information on how we can recover that baby , i will get it out of her . ooh ! excuse me . duke : lucy , listen . declining to fight the charges against me -- it is the right thing to do . alexis : you and i need to go . your arraignment starts in a half hour . lucy : okay . well , good . then that gives me 30 minutes to talk some sense into you . officer : let 's go . lucy : [ sighs ] sonny : i - i honestly do n't know . i mean , he -- you know , duke has spent decades in a turkish prison . i do n't think he 's gon na want to go back behind bars . carly : well , do n't say that . if duke backs out as your alibi , that 's another nail in your coffin . you telling me you do n't care if you go to prison ? sonny : the only thing i care about right now ... is that i 'll never see my son again . [ keys jingling ] elizabeth : well , this is it -- my humble abode . jason : oh , wow . elizabeth : what ? jason : nothing . it 's just a really nice house . elizabeth : thanks . the boys should be home any minute , so make yourself comfortable , and i 'll get you something to drink . jason : that 'd be great . thanks . [ door closes ] [ next_on ] patrick : ( to kids ) what 's going on right now ? jason : ( to elizabeth ) this is jason , is n't it ? larry : ( on phone ) they have no idea what 's really going on . agent sloane : ( to britta and nikolas ) no one will escape this purge . anna : ( to liesl ) that 's enough to place you under arrest . monica : ( to tracy ) i am gon na kill sonny corinthos ! michael : ( to sonny ) i 'm here for one reason only .

sonny : before anybody else leaves , i 'd like to say something . my son is gone . i ca n't believe he 's gone . he 's not coming back and i know half of you , or maybe even most of you , blame me . [ voice breaking ] but you ca n't blame me any more than i blame myself . morgan 's life was not easy . [ sobs ] he deserves to be at peace , but that ca n't happen because of me . because of what i did . there 's only one way he can be at peace , and i know how to make it happen . it 's the only way i know how . jason : whoa , whoa , whoa . [ scene_break ] nina : come on , j. i promise , i have everything under control . just stay at the restaurant and make wedding plans and just smile and nod and do everything the bride and her mom say .

[ scene_break ] scott : okay . i 'm here for our secret meeting . i do n't know why you would pick a place that does n't serve alcohol . ava : oh . well , i assumed you carry your own flask -- some bottom - shelf bourbon aged for a few months in a fine , plastic jug . scott : well , i do like the finer things in life . that 's why i 'm hanging out with you . ava : eh . scott : not to mention the fact that you 're rich and you 're always in trouble . why are you wearing black ? ava : well , i 'm -- i 'm actually thinking about attending morgan 's funeral . scott : well , you know , sometimes grief can make people more forgiving . i mean , i know that you switched out morgan 's medication for those dum - dum drops . but carly and sonny , they do n't . ava : i think it 's only a matter of time , though , before they find out . [ scene_break ] jason : sonny , what are you doing ? dante : sonny , come on . sonny : my life has been smothered by so much violence , and that violence smothered my son 's life . morgan ... [ sobs ] morgan had his future in front of him . h - h - he had so much that he wanted to do , but that 's -- he 's not gon na have that chance because of me . and i want to make it clear ... ... that i 'm responsible for morgan 's death . me , no one else . [ sighs ] jordan : mr. corinthos ... are you confessing to causing of the death of your son morgan ? sonny : i 'll tell you everything . i just need to get this out . jason : hey , sonny . do n't do this . do n't do it . sonny : i can do it . i can do it . i just want to be able to tell -- i want to talk to the people who loved morgan . jason : do you know what you 're doing ? sonny : yes . i got it . i got it . carly ... you came to me months ago , and you asked me to change after our son almost got shot and kiki got shot saving him . you said to me that -- you asked me to stop the cycle of the violence , and i promised you that i would try . i 'm sorry , sweetheart . [ voice breaking ] i broke that promise . carly : [ sobbing ] sonny : and now , our beautiful boy has lost his life . michael ... what you said was right . morgan always forgave , just like you . do n't beat yourself up because you did n't -- were n't there to protect him . that was my job . i was supposed to protect your brother . you know when parents -- you know when parents always say that when they lose a child , they wish that they could trade places ? i would give ... [ sobbing ] [ sniffles ] to trade places with him ... [ sniffles ] ... so he could be sitting right here with us in church , sitting right next to his mama . that ca n't happen . that ai n't gon na happen . nothing can change that . the only thing that i can change is to take responsibility for my action . and i will be sorry the rest of my life , and i will do everything i can to atone for this . jason : hey , hey , hey . sonny : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . 'cause i 'm not gon na need this where i 'm going . [ sniffles ] [ voice breaking ] dante , my beautiful son ... go ahead . do what needs to be done . [ sniffles ] [ scene_break ] laura : alexis explained the legal situation to me . i 'll be gone before the day 's out . valentin : well , if that 's your decision , i wo n't try to dissuade you . i was just trying to extend an olive branch . laura : i think you know what you can do with that olive branch . valentin : fair enough . but if you should change your mind about wanting to stay here , i think i should be able to accommodate you . after all , we are family . in the meantime , i think this place will be more than adequate for me ... and my daughter . [ scene_break ] nina : i got it . i 'm hanging up , okay ? bye . [ sighs ] i love my brother . i love him . he 's a worrier , huge worrier , so while he 's up there at the restaurant making wedding plans , you and i are going to play . what do you want to play first ? charlotte : paper dolls . nina : paper dolls ? really ? do you even know where you are ? i can definitely make that happen . charlotte : oh . [ scene_break ] scott : so , lucy saw you getting rid of morgan 's pill bottle . ava : and she confronted me . and then , fortunately , she jumped to the wrong conclusion that the reason i had the meds in the first place was that morgan and i had drifted into another illicit affair . scott : well , that could be reason enough for morgan to take a mood stabilizer . ava : lucy , she promised to keep her mouth shut for now , but i 'm concerned that if i make one wrong move , you know , she 'll run straight to sonny and carly . scott : right . so , if lucy did n't have the lithium bottle of pills , you 'd have nothing to worry about . ava : shh ! but , scotty , she does have the bot -- she has the bottle , with the pills still in it . and if she brings those pills to sonny and carly , and if they find out that those are placebos in that bottle , and lucy tells them that she saw me throwing that bottle away ... scott : right . they would know that you had switched the pills . ava : exactly . and i 'll be dead . scott : yeah . well , if i was you , i 'd lay low . ava : no , no , no . no , there 's no statute of limitations with sonny . whether it 's now or a month from now or a year from now or a decade from now , if he finds out what i did ... scott : yeah . vengeance is his . ava : yes ! right ! so , scotty ... you know what needs to be done . scott : i do . you need to get a new dye job and jump the first freighter to cuba . ava : scotty , i need to get those pills from lucy . and by `` i , `` i mean you .

[ scene_break ] laura : your daughter ? valentin : that 's right . my little girl is charming . i ca n't wait for her to move in with me . laura : in the house that you stole from my son , who you killed . [ knock on door ] valentin : i wo n't take up any more of your time . kevin : what the hell are you doing here ? valentin : i live here . what are you doing here ? oh , yes , that 's right . kevin : are you all right ? laura : could n't be better . valentin : anyway , welcome to my home . kevin : just how is this your home ? valentin : well , i 'll let laura explain . this house belongs to the cassadines . and although laura dislikes me for admittedly valid reasons , she and i will always be connected through our family . [ scene_break ] michael : hey , mom , olivia just texted me . joss is at her place . should i go get her ? carly : no . no . i 'm glad she 's with olivia . she can stay distracted , right ? i 'm so glad she was n't here when sonny ... did what he did . the reception -- i have that room that i put on hold . nelle : y - yeah . i 'll call the hotel and make sure it 's canceled , okay ? carly : thank you . thanks , nelle . nelle : okay . bobbie : we need to get you home , put you in to a nice , warm bath or bed . jax : bobbie 's right . we should get you home . carly : i do n't want to go anywhere yet . i do n't . i just wanted justice for morgan , you know ? i 'm not really sure that 's what i had in mind . none of this turned out like i thought it would . [ scene_break ] sonny : where do you want to do this ? dante : you got to call diane . you have to have your attorney in there with you when you 're being questioned . sonny : no . i do n't need my attorney . as soon as we get this out in the open , the better . jordan : all right . then you can wait in there . hey , dante , i need a word with you . dante : we 'll be right back . what 's the problem ? jordan : i just want to -- just talk with you about sonny before he takes his statement . hey , can you make sure that you watch the door ? officer : sure . jordan : thank you . jason : hey . take a break . officer : you got it . [ door opens ] jason : sonny . sonny : what are you doing here ? jason : you 're making a mistake . [ scene_break ] kevin : how does he make a claim to any of this ? laura : [ sighs ] it 's a very long , sad , chauvinistic story that ends with valentin taking possession of this house and everything else . so , i have to move out now . want to help me pack ? kevin : well , as fun as that sounds , i would wager that valentin would n't mind if you just sent for your things . so , what do you say we get out of here ? laura : [ chuckles ] yeah . where do i go ? kevin : to the mainland so we can brainstorm and figure out what for you to do next . laura : hmm . that does sound like a good idea . kevin : great . let 's go . laura : uh , except that i do know what i 'm gon na do . i 'm gon na move in with dante and lulu . kevin : yeah . yeah . you mentioned that . laura : what ? kevin : well , i was just thinking , you know , i have all this extra room . well , you 're welcome to stay with me . [ scene_break ] nina : [ gasps ] purple ! you made a purple doll . charlotte : purple 's my favorite color . nina : really ? purple 's my favorite color , too . does your mommy dress you up in a bunch of purple outfits ? valentin : what a wonderful surprise . charlotte : purple flowers are my favorite , and they 're nina 's favorite , too . valentin : well , even better . i get to visit with not just one , but two beautiful young ladies . [ scene_break ] scott : so , you want me to get the pills back from lucy ? ava : yeah . who better ? you have a history with lucy , right ? you know what alcohol gets her drunk the fastest , you know where all of her sweet spots are , do n't you ? scott : yeah . i do know that . ava : okay . well , then , it should n't be trouble for you to distract her long enough to find that bottle and pilfer it . scott : yeah . well , i could get the pills just like that . [ snaps his fingers ] ava : yeah . so ? you 're saying you 'll do it . scott : i 'm not saying that at all . ava : then what are you saying , scott ? scott : what i 'm always saying to you , ava ? what is in it for me ? [ scene_break ] kiki : i 'm gon na go . dillon : do you want me to ... ? kiki : no . no . it 's fine . i just -- i need some time to myself to sit with my feelings and my memories . i just -- i need to say goodbye to morgan in my own way . does that make any sense ? dillon : yeah . perfect sense . kiki : i 'll see you later . nelle : look , i 'm so sorry for the short notice , braden , but i 'll explain everything later . okay . just keep the food in the fridge , and we 'll figure it out when i get back , okay ? bobbie : [ sighs ] so , uh , what do you think of her ? michael : nelle ? she 's , uh -- she 's great . and she 's been very supportive of my mom , who really relies on her . bobbie : huh . carly : i just ca n't believe sonny confessed . jax : well , i guess he felt it was the right thing to do . carly : normally , i 'd agree with you . just ... for sonny to admit -- i mean , to admit that he caused morgan 's death , i did n't think he could say the words . jax : you know , i knew within 10 minutes of meeting sonny what he was all about . and in all the years , he never proved me wrong . i mean , he does n't like violence , but he has no problem using it to get what he wants , and he never considers the collateral damage , which is the part that astonishes me , because he 's a smart guy , right ? organized crime is deadly . it 's not a hard concept to grasp . i do n't think he got that until today . carly : i know sonny confessing was his way to make things right , but what about morgan 's brothers and sisters ? i mean , at least dante , michael , and kristina , they 're adults . but what about avery ? i mean , if she loses sonny now , she may never remember him . and what about ava ? if sonny goes to prison , ava gets full custody . that 's the last thing that little girl needs . jax : yeah . sonny confessing will hurt a lot of people , yes . carly : [ sighs ] jax : but , look , i think he did the right thing . he always said he wants to protect his family , right ? well , today he took the first steps to do that . [ scene_break ] jordan : i can take it from here . dante : what are you saying ? i ca n't be in the room ? jordan : i 'm saying i 'm giving you the option to sit this one out . jason : okay , listen up now . we do n't have a lot of time . do n't worry about what you said in the church , okay ? i called diane . she 's on her way . she 's gon na get you out of this . sonny : i do n't want to get out of it . i 'm gon na make a full confession , i 'm gon na plead guilty , then i 'm gon na go to prison for the rest of my life , and that does n't seem like enough . jax : sonny , please , under no circumstances should you plead guilty to any crime . [ scene_break ] nina : what are you doing here ? valentin : i wanted to thank you for your company last night . nina : oh , you 're welcome . i 'm very , very busy right now . valentin : yeah , i can see that . paper dolls , huh ? nina : [ chuckles ] yeah . we 're gearing up for the milan runway issue , and we 're working on paris , as well . valentin : why do n't you go play ? get ready for that parisian runway . nina : your daughter 's very happy to see you . valentin : not half as happy as i am to see her . i missed her every day that claudette had her away from me . it 's progress that we are in the city , but i wo n't rest until she 's with me full time . charlotte : i want to play a game . nina : she 's asking the right person . valentin : i think that can be arranged . what do you want me to play ? charlotte : war . valentin : yeah . [ scene_break ] kevin : i really like to spend time with you . i mean , like , a lot . and i happen to have an extra room . laura : that 's a really sweet offer . i , uh ... i 've already made these arrangements . i 'm gon na stick with that . kevin : well , yeah . you told me . laura : you know , we just restarted our relationship , and i do n't think that sharing the same space would necessarily be a great idea right now . it 's just that the last thing i need in my life right now is for you to start resenting all my idiosyncrasies . kevin : well , idiosyncrasies make us who we are . laura : really ? kevin : really . laura : what if i snore ? kevin : you do . hey , hey , i 'm just happy to be able to hear it at all , if you know what i mean . and time spent with you made it worth taking a bullet .

[ scene_break ] nelle : okay , i canceled the reception . michael : oh , yeah . i heard . thank you . nelle : oh , god . was i being loud ? bobbie : no . you were perfect , as usual . i need to get some air . michael : what was that about ? nelle : what do you mean ? michael : uh , nothing . anyway , thank you . i know my mom 's really been relying on you . nelle : well , it 's my job . michael : yeah , well , you 've gone above and beyond . nelle : well , that 's actually in my job description , michael . i 'm serious . anyway , i know how hard this has been for carly , but what about for you , you know ? how are you holding up ? michael : uh , well , i 'm -- i 'm a corinthos and a quartermaine , so i do my falling apart in private . well , at least usually . but , yeah , i still ca n't believe my dad confessed . nelle : you know , uh , yesterday he told me something . he mentioned that he was planning something , but i did n't know what he meant . i thought that he meant that he was leaving . um ... and you know what ? he actually gave me this to give to your mom . michael : oh , yeah . i mean , i understand why my dad felt he had to do this , but it set a lot of people 's lives into a tailspin , especially my mother 's . carly : excuse me for a second . dr. maddox ? what are you doing here ? [ scene_break ] griffin : nina , i 'm here to pick -- pick up charlotte . what are you trying to pull ? valentin : can we be civil for la petite mademoiselle 's sake ? nina : uh , everything is okay . we are just playing a game . anna : games seem to be your specialty , do n't they ? valentin : i 'll take that as a compliment . anna : [ chuckles ] why not ? valentin : how are you , anna ? anna : me ? i am deeply concerned by your proximity to a small child . valentin : uh , that 's my small child , my flesh , my blood . anna : so you say . we 're taking charlotte home . charlotte ? valentin : by `` home , `` i hope you mean wyndemere , because that 's where i live now .

[ scene_break ] andré : i understand how you feel about me , mrs. corinthos , but i still wanted to pay my respects . while i ca n't explain what happened with morgan 's medication , he and i did a lot of really good work together , and i wanted to honor that . carly : well , now you have . andré : very well . i do want to say , i did n't know morgan very long , but i could see how much everyone here loved him . their lives were made better because he was a part of them . you should hang on to that . carly : dr. maddox ? wait . [ scene_break ] ava : i do n't even care what you want . i need that pill bottle , scotty , and i 'll be more than happy to make it worth your while . scott : anything , huh ? ava : anything . art , money , a sports car , whatever your little heart desires . just name your price . scott : hey , lucy . hey . yeah . how you doing , pal ? i know . it 's been a while . listen . i was thinking , we get together tonight at stinger 's , have some fun . yes , i 'm buying . oh , no , no . you know what ? forget the metro court . i 'll tell you what . why do n't i swing by your place ? i 'll get a bottle of champagne , some caviar . i know you do . you know i do , lucy . ava : oh , good grief . scott : all right . listen , so i 'll see you soon . slip into something comfortable , okay ? bye - bye . [ sighs ] i will have the pills by the end of the evening . ava : yeah ? scott : yeah . ava : we have n't even discussed the terms . scott : no , we have n't . ava : [ laughs ] well , are you gon na tell me what you want ? or is a little mattress tag with lucy reward enough ? scott : i enjoy my time with lucy . i really do . but i feel somewhat bad taking advantage of her to do your dirty work . but i do like the fact that you owe me a favor . see ya , ava . [ scene_break ] lulu : i hope i did n't chase kevin off . laura : oh , no . do n't worry about that . i will be seeing plenty more of kevin . lulu : really ? laura : [ chuckles ] yeah . well , especially now that i wo n't have to take the launch to the mainland anymore . lulu : oh , no . please do not tell me that -- laura : i wish i did n't have to tell you , but yes , valentin does have a claim to this property . lulu : how ? ! wait . because nikolas signed it over ? that was clearly coercion . laura : as it turns out , nikolas never really had this estate . lulu : of course , he did . he was the cassadine prince . laura : he had the title , but he did not have the estate . it was -- nikolas ' grandfather mikkos , he left everything in his will to his eldest living son . stavros is gone , stefan is gone , so that leaves only ... lulu : valentin . laura : right . yeah . yeah , it does n't matter now . it does n't . helena is dead , the will resurfaced , spencer lost his entire inheritance , and valentin gets everything , including this house . i , uh -- i 'm afraid i do have to take you up on your offer to let me move in with you and dante , just for -- lulu : no . we want you to stay with us . having you under our roof is going to make dante and me almost as happy as it 's gon na make rocco . [ laughs ] laura : well , i aim to please . lulu : it 'll be good for us to be around family , especially after today . laura : morgan was such a sweet boy . and dante , to lose his brother like that , he must be devastated . lulu : it got worse . at the end of the funeral , sonny confessed that morgan 's death was his fault . dante had to take him into custody . [ scene_break ] dante : you 're the commissioner , so i guess it 's your call to make . that man in there is my father . that is a conflict of interest . jordan : your integrity and impartiality are not in question , dante , but that man , your father , he 's about to give us chapter and verse of how his actions directly led to your brother 's death . are you sure you 're ready to hear that ? [ scene_break ] sonny : why ca n't i plead guilty ? jason : you do n't have all the facts . sonny : well , enlighten me . just say it . jason : i 'm still working on confirming something . sonny : you either know or you do n't . jason : i found the guy who brokered the hit on julian . sonny : yeah , yeah . jason : i found mezzo . i also found out exactly what happened the night morgan died . [ scene_break ] lulu : mom , is this everything ? laura : uh , i 'm gon na take kevin 's advice and send for the rest of it . [ sighs ] if i need something before then , i 'll just buy a new one . i do n't think i want to come back here again . let valentin have the place . his castle . [ chuckles ] his island . let him rot . lulu : hey , hey . you okay ? laura : no . i keep thinking about this thing that valentin said to me . he looked at me and he said , `` we 're always gon na be connected by family . `` lulu : mom , you 'll always be nikolas ' mother . you 're spencer 's grandmother . like it or not , valentin is their relative . laura : i - i guess that 's probably what he meant . [ scene_break ] nina : okay . so , uh , what 's going on here ? valentin : do n't keep us in suspense , doc . what do they say ? griffin : valentin is charlotte 's father . valentin : if all of you lovely people who are not related to charlotte do n't mind , i 'd like to take my daughter home now . anna : actually , i do mind . [ scene_break ] carly : i found some new information about morgan . there was something going on with him before he died , and i 'd like to talk to you about that . andré : of course . anytime . carly : thank you . ava : morgan . [ scene_break ] kiki : hey . dillon : hey . kiki : i was n't expecting to see you here . dillon : you 're welcome to join me . you do n't have to . kiki : you know what i keep thinking ? how did things get so bad so fast ? morgan 's gone . now sonny 's going to jail . i mean , carly lost a husband and a son , and kristina and michael and my baby sister , avery , now are losing their father . if sonny confessing his crime was the right thing for him to do , then why is n't anything good coming of it ? dillon : i do n't know . hopefully , in time , we will be able to move on . kiki : do you really believe that ? dillon : i want to . kiki : thank you , dillon . dillon : for what ? kiki : for this . for what you did at the funeral earlier . just letting us be friends . for sitting next to me .

[ scene_break ] jax : you ready to go ? carly : i do n't want to go . because when i leave , it 's the beginning of my life without morgan . jax : then do n't go home for yourself . go home for josslyn . show her how you live with grief . i know you can do that . you can do anything for your kids .

[ scene_break ] brenda : it 's really important to me that sonny never finds out that i was pregnant . dante : no , no one 's gon na know . the paperwork is buried so deep , no one will ever find it . brenda : that does n't matter . that 's what we thought with aleksander and look what happened with that . dante : there was a chance that his body would show up and that the balkan would find out that you were connected to his son 's death . i 'm just glad you 're here where i can help protect you . brenda : i 'm so sorry . i do n't know why you have to be stuck in all of this . dante : i 'm not stuck in this . it 's the least i can do . you saved my life , twice . brenda : all right , so what do we think balkan 's gon na do next ? dante : fly under the radar , keep us guessing . brenda : i just want to get out of port charles . dante : well , at least we have the balkan on our turf now . i mean , it 's the one good thing that 's come out of all of this . we just got ta wait for his next move . brenda : simple . dante : well , maybe not simple , okay , but survivable . we 'll get through this , brenda . and then ... you 'll move on with your life , i 'll move on with my life , and we 'll leave the past in the past where it belongs . [ scene_break ] brad : i ca n't prove that dante and brenda slept together . i do n't have any evidence that would stand up in court . no pictures . never caught them in the act . carly : then why would you think there was anything going on ? brad : just one of those things , you know ? sometimes you can just tell . and like i said , he did n't deny it when i asked him . carly : okay , were dante and brenda spending a whole bunch of time together ? was there a lot of eye contact ? i need details . i need something . brad : the last week of the assignment , dante was in her room all the time . she was very physical with him , more than any of the rest of us . i mean , she leaned on dante , literally . and , you know , he 'd take her hand when maybe he did n't have to . they were close . you know what i 'm saying . carly : was there one moment when you were absolutely sure ? brad : the last day . we were taking her from her room to her car , which was in the parking garage . she would n't let anybody else take her down but dante . she was pretty emotional . i do n't know what else to tell you . carly : no , you 're great . thank you . thank you . johnny : thank you very much , brad . we appreciate it . brad : dante 's a good guy . i do n't want to mess him up . technically , it 's a violation to hook up with the lady that you 're assigned to guard , but ... it happens all the time . it 's not a big deal . carly : oh , it 's a big deal , when the lady is your father 's once and future girlfriend .

[ scene_break ] dante : not to sound like a cheeseball , but i got to admit , it was pretty cool guarding a supermodel -- riding around in limousines and going to parties . it made the other uniforms pretty jealous . brenda : [ laughs ] i seriously doubt that .

[ scene_break ] tracy : so you spent the entire night trying to track down reverend grace ? luke : he 's a very elusive man of the cloth . tracy : you 've done absolutely nothing about finding someone to annul their marriage ? tracy : annulment is their problem . love is ours . if you think we 're not really married until we 're legally married , then by god , we 're going to get legally married . tracy : i want a prenup , and you know it . do not confuse the issue . so we will get them annulled , go back to port charles , have the lawyers draw up an agreement which we both will sign . then we 'll get married . luke : where 's the fun in that ? tracy : where is the fun in our so - called chaperones getting married by mistake ? i will personally find you a lawyer to get you free the way i 'm free . luke : oh , popsicle , wait . hey ! now you 're being hasty ! excuse me , kids . [ scene_break ] suzanne : you wanted to talk about brenda 's safety ? sonny : yeah . jason accepts what you told him about brenda 's connection at asec at face value , that brenda is a spokesperson , and you 're helping exploited kids . it ends there . suzanne : and what ? you think there 's something more going on ? sonny : i want you to tell me what exactly brenda has done for your charity . i want a list of all the dangerous places that you 've dragged her to to get a photo op . and i want to know who she shut down so asec could bring in money . suzanne : are you suggesting that i put brenda 's life in -- sonny : i 'm not suggesting anything . all i 'm saying is you shove her in the spotlight . that 's the way you make your living while you 're acting like you 're helping kids . suzanne : there 's no acting , and brenda thinks it 's worth the risk . sonny : yeah ? brenda thinks it 's worth the -- she does n't understand how dangerous these people are , like the balkan , that by causing them problems , what could happen . but you did . suzanne : i 'm not the one who put brenda 's life in danger , mr. corinthos . that would be you . [ scene_break ] brenda : so , dante turned michael in to the court ? spinelli : indeed . the betrayal 's a matter of public record . i 'd be happy to retrieve the transcripts if you need verification . brenda : no , no . i believe you . i just ca n't believe that dante would turn his own brother in , send him to prison . spinelli : dante hounded michael until he confessed , and dante , he burst into the courtroom , and in this moment of supreme grandstanding narcissism , announced to the judge that michael had killed claudia . michael went to pentonville , and stone cold soon followed . brenda : jason told me something about this . i just had no idea that it was dante who turned michael in . hey . why do n't you ever tell me anything ? i mean -- spinelli : i apprised the divine one of the badged betrayer 's true nature . she deserves to know of his heinous acts , starting with the callous rendering of young michael to the pitiless grip of -- jason : should n't you be downloading the cell phone information of the balkan 's men ? spinelli : it 's in progress upstairs . jason : can you go check on it , please ? spinelli : yes . of course . brenda : uh ... i ca n't believe that dante sent michael to prison . i mean , that must have been horrible for you . jason : yeah . i wanted to kill dante for what he did to michael . brenda : well , i do n't think someone should guard me , you know , that you want to kill . jason : i do n't want to kill him anymore . brenda : why not ? jason : it 's just -- you know , i do n't want to talk about it . brenda : why ? jason : because i do n't . brenda : maybe there 's something i can do to help .

[ laughs ] johnny : dante did n't even know sonny was his father yet . carly : oh , i know . that 's what makes it even better . i mean , that 's what makes it epic . johnny : really ? why 's that ? carly : you know how sonny gets about things , like when he thought that you were dating kristina . johnny : not exactly my finest hour . carly : yeah , well , it 's going to be a million times worse than that , especially since dante and brenda have been lying through their teeth since she got back to port charles . and now , he finds out that dante 's been sleeping with brenda ? dante , his favorite ? he 's going to flip . johnny : better hope he does n't shoot the messenger . carly : he has no reason to yell at me . i 'm not the one who 's been lying . you know what 's so great is every time he looks at dante , he 's going to see it . he 's going to hate dante , and he 's going to hate it . johnny : but in all fairness , sonny and dante did n't even know each other then . carly : that does n't matter in sonny 's world . and i ca n't wait for jax to find out about this . it will finally extinguish that torch he 's been carrying around for her . johnny : you 'd like that , would n't you ? carly : i would love that . i mean , this is perfect . it 's like my birthday , fourth of july , and christmas all rolled into one . johnny : you 're crazy . carly : big question is , where do i drop the bomb first ?

[ scene_break ] dante : thank you . so , hey , it 's great that you got a job so fast , especially in this economy . siobhan : coleman liked the fact that i 've waited tables all over the world . and once i convinced him of how much extra money i could bring in -- lulu : yeah . he 's probably right along with you . siobhan : that he was . dante : ahh . how 's it going ?

[ scene_break ] jason : the night that -- that michael went to prison , it was -- it was probably one of the worst nights of my life . [ sighs ] we had tried so hard to protect him , you know ? but the truth is , sonny , carly , and i , we were all responsible -- not just for covering up how claudia died , but , you know , for the life that we gave michael . brenda : you 're not blaming yourself , are you ? jason : come on . let 's face it . michael has a life that i made for him . i wanted to show this kid the world . but instead , he went to prison . brenda : and then , you went to prison for your kid . who does that ? jason : it 's wrong . all of it is wrong . michael pays every day for what i 've done . brenda : i wish i could tell you how bad i 've messed up . i 've made some really bad mistakes . jason : you did n't screw up as bad as i did . [ scene_break ] suzanne : how dare you accuse me of exploiting brenda when she 's romanticized you past the point of absurdity . sonny : if brenda and i ca n't forget each other , that 's our business , not yours . and all this deflecting ca n't change the fact that brenda did n't know the risks she was taking . but you did . suzanne : yes ? and what about the risks she went through for her great love for you ? the truth is a little less romantic , is n't it ? you own strip clubs . you made money exploiting women . for all i know , you still do . and you left brenda so emotionally scarred that she ca n't even maintain a stable life . sonny : all i did was love her . sonny : you want to hate me ? go ahead . maybe i deserve it . maybe i do n't . but i do n't exploit children , and there are no drugs in my territory . suzanne : and no strip clubs ? and no prostitution in the casinos you own ? sonny : nobody 's underage . [ suzanne sighs ] sonny : i never said i was a saint . suzanne : so that excuses you taking whatever you want and killing or terrorizing anybody that gets in your way ? sonny : that is right . that 's how i live . so be careful . but i never took anything from brenda . suzanne : you took her sanity . sonny : no , i loved her . the first time i saw her , i loved her . she loved me . and i told her how dangerous it was to be with me . suzanne : [ scoffs ] because that would just make you more irresistible . sonny : brenda wanted to believe that we could have a life together . she believed that our love was so big that it could overcome anything . and for a while , i believed it , too , because brenda gave me hope . she made me happier than i 've ever been .

[ scene_break ] siobhan : they had no idea that i understand a fair amount of croatian . they were pretty careless with the phone calls . jason : what did you hear ? siobhan : not much that you do n't already know . the balkan wanted brenda alive . he wanted to ask her something . jason : do you have any idea what that was ? siobhan : not at all . i do n't think the thugs did , either . they did get one call that was different . they were speaking in english , or at least trying to . it was pretty cryptic . jason : could you tell what they were talking about ? do you remember any names ? siobhan : yeah , i did , now that i think about it . whatever they were talking about has something to do with a man named jack .

[ scene_break ] [ wind whistling ] [ children laughing ] lucky : aiden ? what are you trying to tell me ? [ scene_break ] lulu : it 's hard being worried about someone you love walking out the door and never coming home . but you know a little bit about that , do n't you , with lucky gone ? [ knock on door ] lulu : who 's that ? let 's see who that is . come here . come here . i 'm gon na put this down . okay . who 's at the door ? [ aiden coos ] luke : well , you 're looking at me like i stepped out of the grave , so i assume that means your brothers did n't tell you i was in town . lulu : oh , they knew ? luke : they asked me not to see you , and i agreed . lulu : hmm . that 's typical . well , lucky 's not here , so you can be on your merry way . luke : my way is n't as merry as it used to be . lulu : why are you here ? i mean , we 've just established that it 's not to see me , and elizabeth is in the hospital fighting pneumonia , so ... luke : oh , i did n't know that . lulu : yeah , well , that 's why i 'm here -- trying to take care of aiden . luke : well , i 'm here for him . [ aiden cries ] luke : i heard i had a grandson . [ scene_break ] ethan : hey . how is she ? steven : well , considering she was chloroformed by a psycho and dumped in the harbor , i 'd say she 's doing remarkably well . ethan : you ca n't buy a ticket before your time . steven : i 'm not ready for a world without my sister . ethan : do you have any idea why lisa targeted her ? steven : lisa did n't need reasons . elizabeth had the misfortune of running into her mid - rampage , and she became an inconvenience that lisa had to deal with . she did n't even think twice -- or at least the cold , dead shell she had become did n't . ethan : wait , you saw lisa before she disappeared ? matt : before she was murdered . ethan : is that a fact ? matt : elizabeth was n't the only one who wound up in the drink that night . steven : yeah , she was pulled , uh , pulled out yesterday , and the autopsy revealed that she was dead before she hit the water . blunt - force trauma to the head . ethan : [ scoffs ] karma 's a bitch . matt : so is a handy tool to the head . ethan : wait , it 's hard to swim when you 're chloroformed , so how did elizabeth manage to get ashore ? matt : ah , yes , the mysterious savior . scooped her up out of the water , delivered her safely to spoon island and served up a healthy dose of mouth - to- mouth . ethan : you sound skeptical . matt : sometimes when the brain experiences trauma , it has to compensate by conjuring up a happy event until the trauma has passed . or there was a near- death manifestation . either event makes more sense than this savior rising up from the water and bestowing the gift of life on densely populated spoon island . [ scene_break ] sonny : what 's going on with you ? you do n't like somebody who just came back from a honeymoon . did you have fun out there ? jason : yeah , it 's fine . everything 's fine . sonny : what do you mean , fine ? what do you mean , just fine ? what does that mean ? jason : it was a honeymoon . i 'm back . i know a lot of things went down when i was gone . sonny : i know about franco . jason : [ swallows ] how ? sonny : you had your people track him down , and , uh , what ? he figured you were getting married so he was gon na torture you a little more ? jason : yeah , pretty much . sonny : how 'd you make contact ? jason : uh , i sent a gift to josslyn . the note said `` to let you know i 'm thinking about you . aloha . `` sonny : son of a bitch . well , how come i 'm always the last one to know ? carly did n't call me . she tracked you down on your honeymoon ? jason : she did . sonny : i 'm sure sam loved that . jason : the threat from franco was real . sonny : how 's carly and -- and josslyn ? jason : they 're okay . sonny : so , it was just you and sam ? you guys all right ? [ scene_break ] sam : thank you . spinelli : i - i trust the honeymoon lived up to expectations ? sam : [ sighs ] yeah , back to the real world . spinelli : ah , yes . alas , life intrudes . uh , but it is my heartfelt desire that stone cold and fair samantha are able to keep alive that moonlit tropical glow of -- of -- of newly wedded bliss , you know , even as though they go back to the responsibilities of work and family . sam : we will do our best . spinelli : you know , i would love to hear some details about your romantic retreat . sam : i 'm sorry , spinelli , but i - i ca n't really talk about that right now . i 'm trying to ... spinelli : i mean , do n't misunderstand . i 'm not seeking to satisfy a prurient interest . i do n't -- i do n't need intimate details . it 's more , you know , what did the islands have to offer , you know , adventure , island lore ? sam : um ... jason and i kept to ourselves a lot . spinelli : right . excellent choice . sam : yes . spinelli : hey . your lug nut 's been replaced by something equally unconventional and fitting . is ... that a cowry shell ? sam : how 'd you know ? yeah . yes . um ... yeah , jason made the necklace for me . he surprised me with it . spinelli : you know , the cowry shell represents fertility . is that suggestive we should be expecting a child in the not - too - distant future ? [ scene_break ] lulu : [ scoffs ] what am i supposed to believe here ? that you had some overwhelming grandpaternal instinct to see aiden and you want to , what ? play with him and hold him and , i do n't know , feed him ? why am i positive that 's not gon na happen ? luke : i just want to see him . lulu : he 's not a zoo exhibit . luke : i want to see him , lulu . lulu : well , he 's right here . look at him . why do n't you take a picture ? that way you 'll remember him next time you leave . luke : [ chuckles ] he looks a lot like lucky . how did we miss that ? lulu : maybe because we were all too busy trying to pry the bottle of booze from your hands . how long have you been back ? luke : i do n't know . weeks . lulu : so , have you been ducking into doorways and crossing the street every time you see me ? luke : that has happened . lulu : it has ? that 's great . so , i do n't get it . why are you able to see ethan and lucky but you act like i do n't exist ? luke : i did n't want to do any more damage . the consensus was that you were better off not seeing me . lulu : there 's a consensus ? luke : lucky , ethan , tracy . lulu : so , you 're having family conferences to make decisions about my life ? i 'm not a mindless , helpless creature . luke : nobody thinks that , lulu , least of all me . lulu : you know what i think ? i think that you 're happy that everyone was opposed to you seeing me because it gave you the easy way out . but you know what ? you owe me face time because i am the one person in this entire family that did n't give up on you . [ scene_break ] [ wind whistling ] lucky : what do you want from me ? ! huh ? ! what are you -- what are you trying to tell me ? ! i need more than this ! i need more .

[ grunting ] [ breathing heavily ] [ wind whistling ] [ scene_break ] luke : if you feel the need to just open up and let me have it , i 'm here . go for it . lulu : how can you come back home and ignore me ? luke : i did n't want to cause more damage . i honestly thought that tracy and the boys were right , that you were getting on with your life . you had stopped obsessing on me . that was a good thing , and i wanted to respect it . lulu : how about respecting your relationship with your daughter ? luke : whatever i do , i 'm wrong . lulu : oh , so is that gon na be your excuse to leave ? because it 's so much easier for you to disappear than deal with the damage that you cause . i mean , it 's a pattern that 's worked for you , so why would you quit now ? luke : why are you going off on me like this ? why do n't you just go celebrate with dante , your new family , the one you can count on ? lulu : what is that supposed to mean ? luke : and what the hell were you doing at the cassadine compound ? you 're just inviting helena to mess with your mind . lulu : were you there ? luke : for a while . lulu : how much did you hear ? luke : i - i heard quite a bit . lulu : so , the entire time that you 've been here , you knew what i went through ? you knew that i was pretending to be a cocktail waitress at the whore house where you grew up ? i mean , did the thought of me dressed in skimpy clothing and disgusting men groping me affect you in the least ? luke : you should have never gone there , lesley lu . lulu : but i went there . i went there to look for you , to -- to grovel at your feet and to apologize for giving a damn about you and beg for forgiveness , but i 'm not the one who got drunk and hit jake with a car . i 'm not the one who lied to the family , went to rehab , and left after 15 minutes . luke : rehab would n't work for me . i had to do it on my own , and i did . i - i - i 'm not drinking . lulu : i quit my job , and i bought the haunted star because i thought it would give you incentive to come home and that we would be partners . i went all the way across the world to the cassadine compound , and i put up with the snide remarks about how our family ruined you because i was hoping helena would give me something to find you . luke : just because helena said something does n't mean it 's true ! in fact , it means the -- the opposite ! will you just wake up ? lulu : why are you here ? ! why do you want to see him ? luke : all right . i 'm here for a simple reason . i heard that i had a grandson , and i just wanted to see him . lulu : that 's great . you 've seen him . look at him . you 're seeing him . so , go to the nearest bar , drown in your sorrows , or toast to your joy . i do n't care . go . luke : god , i wish i was as sure of who i am as you are . you make me sound so predictable . i thought i was more complex than that . lulu : no , you 're not complex . you are insanely messed up . luke : all right . i made a terrible mistake . but i thought it was best not to darken your door , and if i had known that you were here , i would not have come over . lulu : great . you really know how to make me feel better . [ scene_break ] [ wind whistling ] lucky : [ sighs ] [ wind whistling ] [ scene_break ] sonny : i - i ca n't believe carly would have the audacity to crash your honeymoon , especially with the -- with the -- with the kid , the whole thing , you know what i mean ? what did sam do when she saw both of them ? jason : actually , three of them . sonny : what do you mean , three ? jason : carly , josslyn , and shawn . sonny : shawn ? i mean , what is he , a tagalong ? jason : you know what , sonny ? do n't start in on shawn . he actually -- he actually did the right thing . sonny : there 's no reason to defend him 'cause , i mean , what the hell 's he thinking dragging carly to hawaii ? i know what he 's thinking . but , i mean , to bring a baby , i mean , what is that ? jason : look , sam -- sam and i were out of touch . we had no idea that franco resurfaced . carly went to shawn , and shawn made the call . and it was the right call to come to hawaii and -- and make sure that we were okay and give us a heads up so we 're not walking targets for franco . and actually , shawn tried to go alone . carly shows up at the airport with josslyn , and she insisted on going . sonny : why did n't you put them in a cab and -- jason : what are you talking about ? you know how carly is . she does n't give anybody a choice . sonny : why did n't he call me ? i do run the organization . he 's gon na do things on his own now ? jason : i gave him that authority while i was gone . sonny : of course you did , so you put him in charge . so , what does he do ? spends a couple of nights with carly doing what h - he , you know , whatever he 's doing , 'cause she -- and she 's not thinking clearly 'cause of what happened with jax and she hates my guts . basically , what he wants to do was get in her pants . jason : why do you do this ? shawn has done nothing but help us from day one , and you might want to consider actually being grateful to the guy . sonny : you do n't have to go off on me . what 's going on with you ?

[ scene_break ] luke : you 're right . this has become pitifully predictable . anything that i do to try and make up for the damage i 've done is too little , too late . okay . and you know what really bugs me is that you and i can never have a moment together when it 's really about us in the moment because it 's always about your fear of abandonment . and that 's what helena saw , and that 's what she tried to use against you , and she 's a snake . she coiled , and she struck , and she poisoned you the first time she tried . lulu : meaning what ? luke : meaning men leave . that 's your biggest fear , lulu . and she saw it , and she used it . you 're afraid if you take down the wall , if you open up your heart and you really love some guy , like dante , he will leave you . lulu : okay , do me a favor and do n't psychoanalyze me . it 's a joke coming from you . and stop implying that dante is anything like you and stop acting like you give a damn about my personal life . i 've accepted it . you 're not gon na change . you do n't want to . i 'm gon na stop asking . is that good ? we done ?

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : so you think my fever brain conjured up some guy in a near - death experience or that i 'm projecting ? because i 've heard that theory , too . ethan : no , what i think is that it was some creature who lives in a bog and takes human form when the moon is full . elizabeth : oh . okay . so , you 're gon na make fun of me . ethan : [ laughs ] maybe a little . no , but seriously , i 'm not as quick to discount what you saw as your brother and matt . i 've been spending a lot of time on spoon island , so i know mystery abounds . elizabeth : why would you want anything to do with that place ? ethan : well , a lot of spencer history haunts that island . elizabeth : so , you want to learn more about luke ? ethan : well , uh , i came late to the party . you know , so there was some rather large gaps that i 'd like to fill . you knew laura , right , before and after her breakdown ? elizabeth : she was my mother - in - law -- twice .

[ chuckles ] elizabeth : but in the meantime , you 're gon na see what you can find out about her at wyndemere ? ethan : among other things . elizabeth : you know , maybe you should reconsider that fascination . wyndemere 's not a healthy place to be around . ethan : but you have to admit , it is fascinating . the foggy moors , the secret passageways lit from within . elizabeth : my best friend died there , and i cheated on lucky with nikolas . some places are a magnet to darkness and loss . [ scene_break ] steven : i guess it 's possible that i 've been preoccupied . olivia 's been acting a little off . matt : well , join the club . uh , ever since this boat ride from hell . steven : it 's not that . matt : oh . well , it 's none of my business , but all i 'm saying is we 've had a lot on our minds . it would be very easy for something to slip through the cracks . consider this me getting your back , and i would hope if the rules were reversed , you 'd do the same for me .

maxie : where are you , and why is your phone still off ? i need you to call me back , spinelli , post - haste . it 's urgent . ellie : what do you need to tell damian ? lulu : hey ! olivia : stocking the bar -- always fun . lulu : yeah , you know , just figured i 'd get an early start . olivia : yeah , i figured as much when i stopped by the loft and there was no one there . i wanted to figure out what happened with the adoption lady . um -- i guess dante let the cat out of the bag on that one . lulu : oh . no , it 's okay . it 's not like it was a secret or anything . olivia : honey , do n't keep me in suspense . what 'd she say ? lulu : um -- well , after the social worker files our application , it does n't look like we 'll be adopting a baby from that agency , nor any other . olivia : whoa , whoa ! honey , back up a minute . who 's gon na stand in your way ? you and dante would be amazing parents . lulu : um , i appreciate your faith , but , uh -- i wish i had some when i decided to lie on the application . olivia : oh , you lied . lulu : mm - hmm . olivia : about what ? lulu : well , among other things , you . dante : sonny . hey , you okay ? sonny : yeah , i 'm fine . dante : so i do n't have to imagine whose face you 're beating to a pulp . sonny : no . how 's that ? elizabeth : hey . sabrina : hey . elizabeth : too much filing ? sabrina : excuse me ? elizabeth : well , normally , you 're so happy , you practically have bluebirds singing on your shoulders . what 's going on ? sabrina : i guess i 'm still upset about what happened between dr. drake and dr. westbourne last night . elizabeth : it 's understandable . sabrina : i know . i 'm being ridiculous , okay ? they 're two consenting adults . they can go to bed with whoever they want . elizabeth : but it does n't mean you have to like it . sabrina : look , it 's not just about my feelings for dr. drake . okay , well , maybe that 's part of it , but -- everything he 's been through this year , losing his wife -- i just -- i do n't think he 's ready to move on yet . i do n't know . i just -- i do n't even know how i can look dr. drake in the eye now that -- elizabeth : patrick . patrick : hey , i -- i do n't mean to eavesdrop -- i do n't . i - i just -- i could n't help but hear what you guys were talking about . [ cell phone rings ] anna : oh , yeah . commissioner devane . faison : [ as duke ] still so formal , even after that tango ? anna : oh . hi . it 's nice to hear your voice . are you home ? faison : yes . but i have to say , it 's good to be back . i got your message . anna : oh , yeah , i know . you were n't gone that long this time , but , uh -- i missed you . robert : hello , love . the saying easy as pie ? i get it now . anna : uh , can i call you back later ? someone 's here ? faison : spencer ? anna : no . someone else . faison : well , i just wanted you to know that i missed you , too . can i talk you into having dinner with me this evening ? anna : yeah , i do n't know if that 's gon na be possible . faison : well , it does n't have to be anything extravagant . i mean , you could eat at my place . please . i have so much i have to tell you . anna : okay , i 'll try , all right ? robert : was that lavery ? anna : how do you know ? what am i saying ? what are you doing here , robert ? robert : a fight with a friend . anna : for luke ? robert : yeah , well , it seems like my old buddy 's got himself into a jam tracking down some information on duke lavery . faison : i 've already taken your face , duke . soon , i 'll take your place by anna 's side . sabrina : you heard what i just said ? patrick : yes , i know that you think i 'm disappointed in you because you ca n't find anybody to underwrite the nurses ' ball . sabrina : the ball ? patrick : listen , i understand how hard you 're working on this , so you need to know that i 'm never , ever gon na be disappointed in you , okay ? so just please know that . sabrina : uh , that 's -- that 's good to know . elizabeth : sabrina and i are gon na start brainstorming today , and we 'll come up with more sponsors . patrick : it means so much to me that you guys want to do this for robin 's memory . it really does . so anything that i can do -- sabrina : i 'm sorry . i have to go . patrick : what 's up ? is she okay ? what 's wrong with her ? elizabeth : no idea . patrick : must be one of those days . elizabeth : yeah . patrick : listen , i need to talk to britt for a second . can you excuse me ? elizabeth : yeah , sure . patrick : hey . elizabeth : it 's incredible , is n't it ? i mean , after all this time , how is it even possible a.j . quartermaine is alive ? dante : i think you busted his nose . sonny : if i can give him a taste of all the pain he caused everybody else -- i 'd do it in a heartbeat . dante : well , it 's a good thing he 's locked up . 'cause with everything you 're dealing with , i do n't think you need to add assault charges to the mix . sonny : it would be worth it to see him suffer just a tiny bit . dante : well , he 's being arraigned later today . sonny : the charges better stick . dante : look , a.j . 's already skipped this jurisdiction once . i do n't think we 're gon na have any problems . sonny : diane 's representing him . she has a gift for letting guilty people free . you know that , right ? dante : present company included . sonny : do n't compare me to that son of a bitch . dante : okay . it was a joke . i did n't realize just how much you hated this guy . sonny : no , it 's just that you were n't there , dante . i mean , the hell that he -- that he put us through , especially michael , and now it seems to be happening again because , you know , he 's -- he 's playing the victim . you know what i mean ? michael 's defending him . you know what hurts me the most ? i think it 's working . dante : yeah , and michael was pretty concerned about him last night . sonny : he insisted on staying with him at the pcpd . you know what that son of a bitch wants to do ? he wants to steal my son . dante : okay , well , that 's not gon na happen . michael 's just upset . you 're his father . sonny : you 're damn right i 'm his father . keeps playing the biological card , like that 's what it means to be a parent . i loved my son since the second that he walked into my house . he 's my son -- okay ? -- like you and morgan are my sons . dante : actually , seeing you with michael -- it made me want to adopt . sonny : you 're adopting a child ? when did this happen ? dante : no , we just -- we 've been thinking about it for a little while ? sonny : why did n't you say anything ? dante : well , the thing with kate , and i did n't want to put that burden on you . sonny : well , olivia mentioned something about you and lulu wanting to have a child , but i did n't , uh -- look -- that 's great , right ? dante : yeah , it would be , but , uh -- it 's not gon na happen . olivia : you lied about me on your adoption application ? lulu : no , not just you . sonny and my mom , my dad , my brothers , your cousin kate -- olivia : okay . so you shaved off the edges a little bit . i 'm sure they 're used to that over there ? lulu : yeah , i did a little more than that . i made you guys so perfect , you were practically glowing . i said -- you were a teacher and my mom was a psychiatrist and my dad worked in the peace corps as a volunteer . olivia : okay . so you got a little carried away . lulu : i should have known that they would have seen right through it . it 's just that , on paper , our families , on both sides , have a lot of problems . i mean , how do you explain my dad to someone who 's never met him ? look , i just -- i do n't know . i thought that if the agency saw how crazy / criminal our families are , they would assume that dante and i would be the same way . olivia : honey , who has n't fibbed a little bit to try to make themselves look better ? i mean , look at my cousin kate . well , actually , maybe do n't . lulu : look , dante and i are so blessed with how much our families love us , and i know that we would n't be who we are today without them . olivia : well , if i had some mother - in - law running around having visions and hallucinations and seeing stuff that was n't there , i 'm sure i would n't want anyone to know , so -- lulu : what are you talking -- come on . like , our kid 's gon na have the most awesome birthday parties with , you know , the fearless predictions of grandma liv ! olivia : honey , you know what ? this is just one stupid little speed bump . you and dante are gon na have a baby . i can totally see it . lulu : like in one of your visions ? maxie : do n't mind me . i have a flair for the dramatic , especially before my first cup of coffee . ellie : oh ! believe me , i completely understand . i can not tell the difference between a helicase and a nucleotide before my morning macchiato . but that message you left damian sounded really urgent . maxie : i , um -- just wanted to let him know that they 're going to be playing his favorite movie on the classic channel this week . ellie : oh , which one ? maxie : oh , uh -- `` the maltese falcon . `` ellie : well , then , urgent , indeed . damian reveres that film . maxie : yeah , but i 'll just -- i 'll wait to tell him in person . he 's probably at the office . he 's been sleeping on the couch there a lot lately . ellie : well -- not last night . maxie : what do you mean `` not last night `` ? spinelli : ahh ! greetings and salutations . honey ! maxie : uh , spinelli , you 're here . spinelli : uh , maxie , you 're -- you 're here , as well . i -- i mean , i realize there 's a high probability of that , given this is your primary residence . i just had -- had assumed that you had vacated the premises by this point . maxie : uh , no , not yet . spinelli : i see . well , this does prove to be a bit awkward . ellie : no , there 's really no need for discomfort . i mean , we 're all adults here , and maxie knows we 're dating . maxie : you do not need to worry . we will totally respect your space , and you can expect complete reciprocity . and i want you to know that , whenever you do meet a guy , i have absolutely no problem if he wants to spend the night . maxie : spend the night . you guys slept together . ellie : well -- yeah . patrick : do you mind if we just , uh , step in for a second ? steve : it seems impossible , a.j . turning up like this . elizabeth : were n't you the one that pronounced him dead right here in this hospital ? wait . hold that thought . i 'll be right back . hey . you okay ? sabrina : yeah , i just needed to splash some water on my face . oh , my god . i totally panicked . i thought dr. drake heard me talking about my crush on him . elizabeth : i know , so did i , but your secret is safe , okay ? here -- this is from dr. vernon . he wants you to prep his exam room . sabrina : okay . thank you so much . britt : so , what is it that you want to talk to me about ? patrick : [ sighs ] last night . sonny : there has to be other adoption agencies -- i mean , people who would be happy for you to have their kid . dante : yeah , the problem is , they all pull from the same database , so when we made our , uh , errors on the last application , it 's gon na basically follow us . sonny : ca n't give up . you just started . i mean , doctors , they do n't know everything . i mean , how many times have you heard that a woman got pregnant and the doctor told her she could n't get pregnant . dante : no , that 's not the problem . we can get pregnant . lulu just ca n't carry to term . so , anyway , that 's why we were thinking about trying a surrogate . you know , that way , we 're the biological parents of the kid , and then the surrogate wo n't feel the urge to -- sonny : a surrogate ? dante : yeah , you know , someone who -- sonny : i know -- i know it 's someone who carries the kid for you . dante : yeah . lulu : did you have another vision of me and dante with a child ? olivia : honey , i 'm sorry . i just meant that i could picture the two of you having a baby because i know what great parents you 're gon na be . lulu : yeah . no , of course . i just -- you ca n't close your eyes and just see if you can picture it ? olivia : sweetheart , i wish it worked like that , but i ca n't just turn it on and off like a light switch . the visions just come . sometimes they do n't even make any sense . lulu : i know , i know . it 's just worth a try . olivia : i know . lulu : come here . olivia : but my visions ca n't be the only ticket here . i mean , there 's got to be another way to get a grandchild , right ? lulu : well , dante and i were thinking of using a surrogate . olivia : you mean , another woman to carry the baby ? lulu : yeah , it 's weird . olivia : it 's not weird . what 's weird ? as long as guys wind up with a child , who cares ? lulu : except maybe we wo n't 'cause dante and i ca n't afford it . dante : i know it 's not what you expected it , but before you start telling me that it 's strange or unnatural -- sonny : give me a little credit , will you ? i know , you know , people use surrogate mothers , even in port charles . there are a lot of different ways to become parents . you and lulu are gon na be great , and if this is how you want to do it , i 'm all for it . dante : i appreciate that . unfortunately , i do n't think it 's gon na happen . it costs like $ 60,000 to do this , and we just -- we do n't have that kind of money . olivia : you do n't have to worry . i know where you can get the money . sonny : if money 's all you need , i think i know where you can get it . lulu : where ? olivia : from me ! sonny : from me . faison : anna , my love -- i took duke 's story and made it my own . i claimed his life . soon , i will claim you as my wife . [ chuckles ] anna : you know , whatever luke has told you about this , i am sure he 's way off base . robert : spencer called me collect from a turkish prison . anna : what ? you 're not serious . robert : yeah , well , it seems he went in there looking for some information on lavery , and they liked him so much , they decided to let him stay . anna : well , why are n't you there trying to help him ? robert : because i 'm here helping him . the deal was that he would get himself out of stir if i came here and told you what he discovered about lavery . anna : which is what , exactly ? elizabeth : steven , maybe you can talk to dr. quartermaine . steve : i do n't need to talk to monica . obviously , a.j . somehow faked his own death . elizabeth : yeah , obviously . steve : then why do you think i need to talk to dr. quartermaine ? elizabeth : it 's not about a.j . sabrina had this idea . patrick : i just wanted to say that i 'm sorry about what happened . britt : it 's okay . really . patrick : i appreciate that , but i want to explain myself . look , i did n't mean to lead you on , all right ? i thought i was ready to take the next step , and it turns out that i was n't . ellie : hey , i apologize . i should have addressed the issue of overnight guests when we moved in . i just -- i assumed because you and damian were prior acquaintances that you would n't object . maxie : it 's -- i 'm -- i 'm just trying to understand . so you -- you were -- spinelli : uh , we 're dying of starvation , right ? i mean , perhaps i should go out and get us some breakfast . there 's a great bakery around the corner . they have the best bagels . yeah ? elizabeth : okay . well , i 'll have a cinnamon raisin . spinelli : okay . maxie : oh , i 'm good . spinelli : all right . ah . sorry . [ door opens , closes ] ellie : well , i think i 'm gon na take a quick shower before he gets back . lulu : that is such a nice offer , but you do n't have $ 60,000 to give us . olivia : well , maybe not right on me right now , but i could take out a second mortgage on my apartment . lulu : what ? olivia : i could just sell the place . lulu : no ! my gosh , stop . no ! it 's not that i do n't appreciate this , but i would not feel comfortable with you doing that , and i guarantee you that dante wo n't , either . [ cell phone rings ] olivia : take it , go . we 're gon na finish this conversation later . lulu : okay , but my answer is not gon na change . olivia : okay . lulu : maxie . maxie : they did it last night . lulu : uh , what are you talking about ? who did what ? maxie : ellie and spinelli . when i thought that they were watching old movies and looking at bacteria through a microscope -- you know , nerdy things that bring normal people to tears ? no , no . they were studying biology in the old- fashioned way . lulu : studying biology -- maxie : they had sex . lulu : you 're kidding . maxie : do i sound like i 'm kidding ? i was actually having a relatively nice morning until ellie wandered in in an unfortunate bathrobe with this stupid smile on her face , and then , two minutes later , out comes spinelli in nothing but his boxers . lulu : maybe he spent the night on the floor . you ca n't be sure . maxie : i 'm sure . ellie and spinelli are having sex . this is a disaster , lulu . what am i gon na do ? olivia : okay . so it 's a little bit less than $ 60,000 . lulu : um , i do n't know . olivia : like two zeroes less . dante : i did n't tell you about the surrogacy to get money from you . sonny : no , i know that . but if you and lulu want to have a baby , this is the way to make it happen . dante : what , by taking 60 grand from you ? sonny : why not ? i got it . dante : look , i , uh -- i appreciate the offer , but it would literally take us the rest of our lives to pay you back . sonny : it 's not a loan . think of this money as a gift . a fraction of what i offered you for the wedding . dante : and that was extremely generous , and so is this , and i know you -- you have the best of intentions . sonny : i 'm your father . i was n't able to give you anything growing up , and i was n't able to give you much since . i can give you this . what do you say ? dante : uh , no . robert : well , he asked a lot of questions to a lot of people , and it seems to corroborate the story , so -- well , i guess it checks out . anna : oh . good . right . well , there you have it , then . robert : [ laughs ] hey , just because a story lines up does n't mean to say that the guy might not be hiding something . anna : luke is stuck in a turkish prison because he 's trying to expose duke as a fraud , and the story checks out . and now he brings you in , and you 're suspicious because the story is constructed so well . oh , kill me now . robert : come on . you 're a pro . if something seems too good to be true , then it probably is . anna : god , we 've just reached the point of diminishing returns . duke is damned if he does , and he 's damned if he does n't . robert : are you not listening to me ? anna : no , i 'm not listening to you or any of this . i 'm done . robert : what are you saying ? anna : what i 'm saying , robert , is it 's great to see you , and you look well , and i 'm so happy that you 're moving on with your life . but you got to stay the hell out of mine . lulu : okay , just calm down and tell me what happened . olivia : hey , we 're gon na talk about this later . lulu : okay . right , right , right . okay . and ? faison : nice to see you again , ms . falconeri . olivia : who the hell are you ? alright let 's break it down . sonny : so , that 's it ? you 're turning me down ? dante : come on . you ca n't be too surprised . we 've always had issues around money . i mean , how many times have i accused you of trying to buy my love . sonny : yeah , yeah , but maybe back then i might have been a little guilty , but like you said , the past is the past . last few months , it seems like we 've been more father and son . dante : yeah , yeah . yeah , we 've been - we have been working towards that . sonny : what 's wrong with taking the money ? i mean , there 's nothing wrong with a father wanting to help out his son , especially when his son is having his own son . dante : actually , about where the money comes from . sonny : oh . dante : i do n't want my kid -- owing his life to that world . sonny : your kid would n't be owing his life to anything , you know ? dante : maybe not so much in that you have something to pay back , but -- i do n't want him carrying that . sonny : okay , okay . i get it . i get it . what if the money came -- from the coffee business , completely legit ? i want to do this for you and lulu . i want to do this for me . faison : we met before . surely you remember . lulu : try to calm down . maxie : do n't tell me to be calm . would you be calm if you had waited to tell dante how much you loved him , and then the next morning , he comes strolling out of your weird new roommate 's bedroom with a smile on his face like it 's the most natural thing in the world and the three of you are supposed to be friends even though he 's drop - kicked your heart even though he did n't know he was doing that ? lulu : o - okay , no . i probably would n't be calm . i would probably be hyperventilating and speed - talking . maxie : thank you . finally , some validation . what was i thinking ? why did n't i tell spinelli how i feel ? why did i tell dante that nothing was gon na change ? now everything has changed , and now spinelli will never know how i really -- got to go ! lulu : maxie ? spinelli : i come bearing pastries . it was my intention to purchase bagels , but these almond croissants caught my eye -- ellie : almond croissants ? oh , you 're kidding . i love almond croissants . i 'd eat them more often , but not every bakery carries them . it 's like you read my mind . maxie : yeah , it 's funny . those are my favorite , also . spinelli : mine , too . ellie : great ! then we can all eat together . hey , damian , would you be kind enough to go retrieve a few napkins from the kitchen ? spinelli : of course . we ca n't have crumbs in your new abode . ellie : ooh , `` new abode . `` i like that . maxie , this is so much fun . i told you we were gon na be great roommates . olivia : i 'm sorry . i do n't -- lulu : olivia , you okay ? olivia : i 'm -- i 'm fine . this -- lulu : duke . olivia : -- man is -- faison : i had the pleasure of meeting you , ms . falconeri , just the other day -- in the lobby of the metro court hotel . i was bringing flowers for anna devane . olivia : right . i -- right . i apologize . i -- i just thought that -- you looked like , uh , someone else . faison : oh , you do n't have to apologize . it 's understandable . i 'm sure you meet a lot of people in your line of work . anyway , i came to see my boss , to apologize for leaving so unexpectedly . you know , when the government calls , you have to answer . lulu : of course . do n't even worry about it . faison : so , i assume i 'm welcome behind the bar tomorrow night ? lulu : not tonight ? faison : well , at the risk of pushing my luck , tomorrow night , if you do n't mind . i 've actually made special plans for this evening . robert : you 're grieving over robin . you 're still upset about that . this guy has seen that . anna : this guy is duke . robert : duke of the dead . anna : no , robert , do n't you remember ? people thought that we were dead , too , and we came back , so why ca n't duke ? robert : i know one person who did n't come back from death -- anna : do n't say it . robert : -- and that was robin . anna : no , you do n't get to do that ! you do n't get to fall out of the sky and police how i live my life ! if i want to believe that duke has come back to me , then that 's what i 'm damn well gon na believe ! robert : gotcha ! you want to believe that duke 's gon na come back to you ! do you have a rolling pin ? sonny : there 's not a lot in life you can count on . one day , you think you 've got everything , and the next day -- it all disappears . dante : kate ? sonny : yeah , i do n't know if we 'll ever get together again or be together again . i do n't know if we 're just -- if we 're broken for good , but -- dante : i 'm sorry . i know how much she means to you . sonny : that 's why i need my family , you know ? 'cause , uh -- i need my kids . i know sometimes we fight , but at the end of the day , we can count on each other . you 're my son . one day , you 're gon na have your son , and i 'm gon na be a grandfather . that means a lot to me . dante : yeah , that 'd be good -- [ chuckles ] -- seeing my kid call you grandpa . sonny : [ chuckles ] it 's about pride , you know ? that 's what got me out of bensonhurst . and i know you got a lot of pride , but sometimes you ca n't let it stop you from getting what you want . you and lulu can -- you have so much love to offer . do n't let money stop you from getting what you want , and that 's a family . dante : yeah , we do want a family . it would be a loan ? sonny : yeah . dante : i 'd pay you back if it took me the rest of my life . sonny : is that a yes ? olivia : so , can we , uh -- can we finish that talk now ? lulu : there is nothing to talk about . i really appreciate the offer , but we both know you ca n't afford that kind of money . olivia : here 's the deal , here 's the deal -- if i win the lottery , the money 's all yours . lulu : thank you , but it 's okay . olivia : please do n't worry about this . it 's all gon na work out , and that 's not some crazy vision talking . that is coming from me . believe me , you can bank on it . lulu : speaking of visions , what was that with duke . olivia : duke lavery . lulu : yeah . you know , that look that you get when you have -- olivia : when i see something that 's not actually there . um -- i looked at him , and i saw someone else . lulu : who ? olivia : i do n't know . it was nobody that i recognized , but it definitely did n't look like duke , and -- and -- the guy was really creepy . faison : you better rest for now , duke . 'cause you have a long night ahead of you . come here . robert : let 's try to maintain some objectivity here . look , even if he 's telling the truth , it 's just too convenient . anna : oh -- why is it too convenient ? robert : this guy suddenly turns up from oblivion . you 're at your most vulnerable . it 's spy 101 -- always attack your opponent at their most weak -- anna : robert , who is my opponent ? who ? what have they got to gain ? unless you 're suggesting that some sinister cabal has staged duke 's return to compromise my position as , what -- police commissioner ? robert : i do n't have the objective -- anna : yeah , you do n't because there is none . luke is jealous . that 's it . robert : well , he did tell me that you were an item , apparently . anna : how gentlemanly . great . so , now do you understand ? duke returns , luke does n't like it . he does everything he can to turn me against him , and when that does n't work , he pulls you into the mix . robert : and a good thing , too . anna : you know what , robert ? please just stay out of this . robert : from where i 'm standing , you 're in a quicksand , waist - high , and you 're sinking quick . i 'm gon na pull you out whether you like it or not , anna . anna : i do n't want it . robert , i do n't . oh , god , this is pointless . all right . you know what ? if you speak to luke , tell him i hope he 's safe . do n't drop the soap . if you speak to him , tell him that i 'm moving out of here , all right ? i 'm done with him . it 's -- steve : it 's a good idea , but i do n't have much pull with monica and even less with tracy . elizabeth : well , can you try ? steve : look , if the quartermaines have already passed on financing the nurses ' ball , there 's nothing i can do . elizabeth : tracy passed . i have n't been in to see edward yet . why would n't he want to sponsor ? he used to perform in it . steve : i do n't know how much of a good idea it would be to go behind tracy 's back . if you try , she might sabotage you . she has -- she carries a lot of weight with the country - club set , and if she decides to pull the plug on this thing , the revival of the nurses ' ball will be over before it even starts . elizabeth : well , the ball is exactly what this place needs . sabrina was right about that . patrick : i still wear my wedding ring , and when you left the room to go change , i noticed it , and i thought -- honestly , i thought a lot of things , but most importantly , i felt like i was being disloyal to my -- to robin -- being with another woman . i know that probably does n't make a lot of sense . britt : no , it -- it makes complete sense . what you 're dealing with , what you 're going through , the loss , i mean , there 's no timetable for that . patrick : no , thank you for understanding . look , britt , you are a gorgeous and intelligent woman . there 's -- there 's no need for you to have to deal with my baggage . britt : i would n't call it that . patrick : well , whatever you want to call it , i ca n't expect you to wait for me . britt : you never asked me to . i happen to enjoy your company . look , patrick , i -- i want to keep seeing you , and if you think that there 's a chance that one day you 'll be ready to take that step , i 'm happy to wait for you to get there . patrick : yes . i will be . one of these days . britt : then that is good for me . patrick : okay . maxie : thank you for the offer -- [ pager beeps ] maxie : -- but i do n't want to interrupt your breakfast plans , so i will grab something . elizabeth : ugh ! oh , no . spinelli : what ? bad news ? ellie : yeah , someone did n't show up to the lab , so i have to go to the hospital . spinelli : okay , well , let me drive you . ellie : no , no , no , no . you guys stay here and eat breakfast . i hate the thought of letting almond croissants go to waste . spinelli : well , then you have to take one for the road . ellie : oh ! okay , thank you . by the way , your phone -- you left it in my bedroom . spinelli : right . my pocket did feel a little lighter . ellie : okay , well , i got to go , but i 'll talk to you later ? spinelli : yes . ellie : okay . spinelli : ah . well , at least i was n't wasting any battery life . okay . one voicemail . maxie : oh , no , spinelli , do n't listen to that ! where are you , and why is your phone still off ? i need you to call me back , spinelli , post - haste . it 's urgent . spinelli : well , here i am , replying post - haste . what is the urgent matter that you need to talk to me about ? britt : i 'm glad we talked . patrick : yes , yes , me too . britt : and just know that i do n't mind waiting .

[ elevator bell dings ] olivia : steve . you busy ? steve : mmm . [ chuckles ] never too busy for you . what are you doing here ? olivia : that 's what i call a hello . steve : yeah , what are you doing here ? olivia : i , uh -- i noticed that you left the apartment before i did , and i also noticed that there were no crumbs on the countertop , so i know you could n't possibly have eaten anything . steve : you should n't have . olivia : oh . well -- steve : no , no , no , no ! olivia : what ? it was no trouble . i walked right past kelly 's on the way to the -- the haunted star . and , uh -- steve : you okay ? olivia : something really weird happened there . robert : your dad 's in turkey , investigating a man who claims to be duke lavery . lulu : you mean looking for dirt ? olivia : i ran into that guy duke lavery . robert : well , lavery 's story seems to check out . i do n't think there 's any doubt in the fact that he 's who he says he is . olivia : only thing is , when i looked at him , he did n't look anything like himself . steve : what do you mean ? robert : i agree with luke . this guy is -- off in some way . olivia : i was looking right at the guy . i saw a completely different person . robert : i think duke 's hiding something . lulu : like his real face ? [ knock on door ] faison : i do n't care if some delivery boy sees my face .

[ breathes deeply ] sabrina : if you say so . carlos : you do n't believe me . sabrina : look , whatever you do with your life and what you do for work has nothing to do with me , so i do n't know why you thought that i should know about it . carlos : simple . i intend to spend the rest of my life with you . patrick : well , i got to pick up luke spencer 's lab results from brad cooper . dr. dosky : i think i just saw him take off . patrick : oh , really ? okay . well , i know my way around the lab , so ... i 'll see you later . britt : lead the way , mother . i ca n't wait to see what you and father have been up to in the depths of wyndemere . dr. obrecht : i am sorry , britta . you ca n't go down there . why not ? dr. obrecht : it 's dangerous . there are no lights . the paths are perilous and unforgiving . you take a wrong step and who would take care of little cesar ? kiss my little schnitzel good night for me .

alexis : good question . diane : i think it 's only fair to wonder why the witness is so eager to take custody of my client 's baby when she was once so eager to get rid of her own . lulu : how could you ? how could you ? judge walters : mrs. falconeri , you are reminded not to converse with the gallery . alexis : your honor , last time i checked , my client 's right to choose was upheld by the supreme court . this is not up for discussion . judge walters : quite right . ms. miller , you 're trying my patience . mrs. falconeri , you do n't have to answer that question . lulu : no , it 's okay . i want to answer it , your honor . yes , i had an abortion . i was a teenager . i had sex before i was ready , and i got pregnant as a result . and deciding what to do next was the hardest decision i 've ever made . but given my circumstances , it was the right choice for me . i was n't ready to be a mother , but i am now . nikolas : i do n't blame you . your parents worry me , too , but you 're gon na have to be a little bit more specific . what is it you think that they 're up to ? britt : you know what ? do n't worry about it . let 's just ... let my parents be their creepy , bizarre selves . as long as they steer clear of ben , i 'm fine . nikolas : well , something must have unsettled you . what was it ? britt : it 's just this coming and going between the wall . nikolas : [ laughs ] the catacombs . britt : yeah . no offense , but it reminds me of that movie , `` the people under the stairs . `` ugh ! nikolas : [ laughs ] your father is one sick mother . you know that ?

'cause soon -- very , very soon -- you are going to be mrs. dr. patrick drake . patrick : hey . what 's wrong ? sabrina : what ? what do you mean ? patrick : usually my kisses generate a little more enthusiasm . sabrina : i 'm sorry . i 'm -- i 've just got a lot going on in my mind right now . patrick : look , i know this is n't what a bride wants to hear , but you could literally wear a paper bag and be the most beautiful woman in the room . sabrina : thank you . that 's really sweet . but i 'm not worried about the wedding dress . patrick : okay . what is it ? sabrina : carlos . patrick : carlos . right . so what is your ex up to now ? sabrina : he came by the house again to assure me that even though his boss is some sort of ... mafia kingpin that he really had no idea and he wants me to know that everything he does is legit . patrick : right . you ca n't be serious . sabrina : no , his boss is derek wells , who is also julian jerome . patrick : i read it in the paper today , but i did n't put two and two together that that was carlos . sabrina , he can not be coming to the house when emma is there . sabrina : no , emma 's fine . she 's at her sleepover . patrick : no , no , you 're not gon na convince me that this is okay . sabrina : i know . okay ? it 's not gon na happen again . i think that i finally got the message across that my future is with you , not with carlos . can i help you ? carlos : well , i hope so . i 'm looking for sabrina santiago . britt : nikolas , i am so sorry . nikolas : oh , britt , it 's not your fault . britt : well , jerry jacks and my parents have us all in an impossible position . i mean , there 's only so much you can do to protect robin and me and ben . nikolas : i know . but there has to be a solution , a way to even the playing field with your parents and jerry . come on . i 'm a cassadine . i should be able to figure this out . i do n't know . i think i just need to ... let go and connect to the twisted , treacherous part of myself . britt : twisted and treacherous ? what ? nikolas : trust me -- my uncle and grandmother would know what to do in the situation . britt : and from what you 've said about them , they would probably go with murder . nikolas : and that would solve a lot of problems , yes . britt : would you really consider it ? nikolas : if it meant protecting my family and friends and the people i love ? all options would be on the table . dr. obrecht : what did you say ? duke : open your eyes . he 's more obsessed with anna now than he 's ever been . dr. obrecht : no . he may still ... pine for her ... but further attempts to win her over would be disastrous for all of us . even faison knows that . duke : no , all he 's ever known is his desire for anna . he 'd do anything and use anyone to get to her , coerce his way into her life . i should know . he used me . he used me to try to worm his way into her arms , but it failed . but now he 's set another trap . he 's gon na blackmail her . she has to be with him or i pay the price . well , faison ? is n't that your plan ? diane : i 'm sorry . could you repeat that ? ellie : did you know anything about this ? maxie : lulu is lying through her teeth . lulu : maxie made it up . i never said anything about taking connie away . diane : did you tell anyone else about this plan that you suggested to your husband ? lulu : there was no plan . i never even considered taking off with connie , much less discussed it with my hand . diane : i have no further questions , your honor . judge walters : you may step down , mrs. falconeri . the court will take a brief 10-minute recess . [ bangs gavel ] holding up ? spinelli : i kept hoping it would n't come to this . i thought somehow dante and lulu would come to their senses and we could work it out , but , i mean ... throwing lulu 's abortion in her face ? there 's no way back for our friendship . it 's just as diane predicted -- scorched earth . maxie : i swear on my life , lulu told me she was gon na go on the run with connie . she even brought dante in on the plan . i mean , who knows who else she told . who knows better about disappearing than a mob boss ? or luke -- he 's been on the run for most of his life . mac : honey , we believe you , but there may be no way to prove it . felicia : it 's your word against lulu 's . diane : that 's not necessarily true . lulu : thank you so much for coming . we appreciate the support . olivia : of course , honey . we 'll support you guys no matter what . you know that . sonny : let alexis do her job , because she 'll take diane down . trust me . dante : can i just talk to my wife for a second ? do you want to tell me what that was up there ? lulu : what do you mean ? dante : what i mean is we did exactly what diane said we did . we were gon na take connie out of the country . did you tell maxie ? lulu : it was a moment of weakness . i was trying to get through to maxie . dante : so why did you lie about it ? lulu : if i told the truth , it would ruin our chances of keeping connie . you get that , right ? dante : well , i get that you just perjured yourself on the stand . all rise . court is now in session . lulu : who cares ? if diane ca n't prove it , it 's maxie 's word against mine . dante : sit down . judge walters : ms. davis , you may call your next witness . alexis : i have no further witnesses , your honor . judge walters : ms. miller . diane : we call detective dante falconeri to the stand . carlos : do you happen to know where i could find nurse santiago ? last i saw her , she was looking for patrick drake . i 'd try the lab if i were you . carlos : thank you very much . patrick : sabrina , i 'm sure that you were clear with carlos like you were clear with him last time , but he still did n't back down , and now we find out that he 's working for the mob . sabrina : it 's the first i heard about it . patrick : look , any time carlos is near you or emma , it 's dangerous , and i 'm not gon na have it . sabrina : he would never hurt us . no matter who his boss is -- patrick : men like that attract violence . believe me -- i know . robin was close to two men , both of them criminals . and our family was in danger more than once , and i 'm not gon na risk it again , not with carlos . sabrina : okay . so , look , then why do n't we bring anna into it ? she can put the fear of the law into carlos , and if he really is that dangerous , then i do n't want you antagonizing him . patrick : sorry . just ... yes , okay . we 'll call anna . sabrina : okay . patrick : all right . i got to get back to work . luke spencer 's waiting for his test results . sabrina : i 'm really sorry about this . really . i just wish i knew how to get carlos to back off . patrick : we do . marry me next week . sabrina : done . patrick : come on . britt : stop it . you 're not going to kill anyone . nikolas : tempted though i might be , you 're right . i would never hurt your parents . britt : this has nothing to do with my parents . it has to do with you . you 're so good , so generous , so honorable ... that i thought it was an act . but it 's not . it 's very real . it 's who you are . and killing someone ... even someone as vile as my father , even in defense of someone you care about ... it would change you , and i 'm not gon na stand by and watch you be corrupted like that . nikolas : you do n't really know me , britt . britt : i know you 're my hero . i 've never had one before . i never thought i deserved one . but then you showed up -- an honest - to - god prince , riding to my rescue , protecting me at every turn , even when i 've given you plenty of reasons to abandon me . i 've done bad things . i mean , people despise me and have every right to . but you 've -- you 've given me a chance to be better . you 've stuck by me , and i 'm sticking by you . okay ? so just hold on a little bit longer . please ? we 'll beat my parents and keep our souls intact , together . dr. obrecht : lavery 's right , is n't he ? faison : a broken clock is right twice a day . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] what a fool i was to believe that , at last , you 'd given up on anna . faison : did sisyphus give up ? dr. obrecht : sisyphus was cursed , you idiot ... doomed to eternal failure , as are you . faison : that 's where you are so wrong . i had anna before . and i shall have her again . whether it was a mistake to skip that class on unlikely methods of escape . robert : okay . watch ... and learn . anna : i always learn by participating . robert : yeah , i always heard that about you . so , the tape will pick up the guard 's thumbprint . anna : okay . robert : douse the tape with salt to raise the print , giving it three dimensions . apply the tape to a wad of gum from the impression in the print . there it is . et voilà -- gum thumb . truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth , so help you god ? dante : i do . diane : detective falconeri , in her testimony just now , your wife swore that maxie jones is a liar . she also swore that she never told maxie jones that you and she planned to abscond with the baby . in fact , she swore that you never even discussed the possibility of fleeing this jurisdiction with the baby to avoid these proceedings . so i really just have one question for you , detective -- is your wife telling the truth , or is she the liar ? britt : promise me you wo n't do anything crazy , you wo n't put yourself at risk . nikolas : i wo n't take any unnecessary chances . britt : sounds like equivocation to me . nikolas : i 'll just say that i ca n't be held accountable for my actions if anyone tries to hurt you , because ... because i care too much about you . britt : when did ... that happen ? nikolas : i have no idea . it just snuck up on me . but i like it . and now that i have it , i do n't want to let it go . dr. obrecht : you dummkopf . you 'd risk our safety to sate your obsession with anna ? your obsession has finally robbed you of your wits . faison : do you know what , obrecht ? you can curse me as much as you like ! it 's not gon na help you ! i do n't give a damn ! duke : obrecht , you 're not as powerless as he 'd have you believe . faison : why do n't you just shut up ? duke : and you do n't have to listen to him . faison : shut up . duke : you do n't have to play his game , and you can also save yourself . why do n't you give him up ? faison : never . do you know , obrecht , she 's loyal -- a word that you do n't know ! loyal ! like a dog ! duke : he 'll never give up this mad quest for anna . he 'll sacrifice everyone in the process -- you , your daughter , and his grandson . but you -- you can save us all . give yourself up and cut a deal . go on . faison : no , no , no , no . she would never dare to do that . would you ? dr. obrecht : watch me . faison : what are you thinking , huh ? you 're going nowhere . anna : i 'm awed by your technique . robert : assuming it works , that is . anna : oh , well . `` a `` for effort .

[ scene_break ] nina : here . why do n't you put this in your ears and you can hear my heart beat ? anna : all right , you have every right under new york state law to petition for custody in a family court , but just because you are the biological father does n't mean that you will automatically receive custody , especially given your problematic background . valentin : all criminal charges against me have been dismissed . anna : oh , yes . valentin : and before you launch into a litany of my alleged crimes , i 'll thank you to remember that my daughter is in the room . and it wo n't do her any good to hear a lot of unfounded claims against me that can not be proven . griffin : oh , i see . so we should n't call you out on what you 've done , for charlotte 's sake ? valentin : my point is , you ca n't prove anything . so why do n't you just let us leave ? anna : well , charlotte 's mother left her in griffin 's care , and that is where she 's gon na stay until there is a family - court determination . valentin : uh , it pains me to admit this , but claudette is less than reliable . anna : and it would be so helpful if we could locate her -- just to hear her side of the story -- but she appears to have vanished . and , i mean , you would n't know anything about that , would you ? of course not . valentin : claudette 's actions have always been a mystery to me . i have no idea why she brought charlotte to port charles or why she lied about the paternity , but i do n't really care . i just want to bring my daughter home . anna : all right . if , as you say , charlotte is your main concern ... valentin : she 's my only concern . anna : ... then i suggest you let her leave with us so this does n't get unpleasant . okay ?

[ sighs ] you can almost feel sorry for him . he 's had long enough to feel he 's charlotte 's father , and now he 's losing her . nina : you do n't need to feel sorry for griffin munro . valentin : oh . are you not a fan ? nina : no , not after what he did to my brother .

[ scene_break ] lucky : it 's hard to build a murder case without a body . mac : does n't mean you give up . lucky : jax and olivia falconeri confirmed that the night claudia kidnapped carly , sonny got a call around midnight from sam mccall , who told him that she was on her way to the hospital with carly and the baby . then sonny took off . the cell records back that up . mac : and claudia was never seen again . did you talk to sam ? lucky : yeah . she claims that she was on her own when she found carly . mac : hmm . you think she 's lyin ' . lucky : i can tell when sam 's covering . i do n't think she had anything to do with claudia 's disappearance , but she 's not tellin ' us everything she knows . my guess is that sam and jason were together and while she drove carly to the hospital , jason waited with claudia for sonny to come back , probably at the same cabin where carly had the baby . mac : then either sonny watched jason kill claudia or he did it himself . lucky : well , that scenario 's a little cold - blooded , even for a mob boss like sonny . mac : claudia was behind michael 's shooting , all right . then she manipulated sonny into marrying her . kidnapping carly was the final straw . the sonny we know would want revenge for all that . according to witness statements , sonny was already on a roll the night of the party . but good luck trying to get him to confess . lucky : i 'm trying to find a witness , anyone who saw sonny that night .

[ scene_break ] dominic : but joey limbo , he 's unreliable . he will turn on a dime . sonny : if he does , we 'll deal with it . dominic : hope you know by now you can trust me . sonny : that 's a good thing , because i 'm gon na have to , uh , reassign certain aspects of jason 's job . dominic : which aspects ? sonny : here 's the thing . if the peace talks do n't go well , okay , you 're gon na have to get your hands dirty . you understand me ? and i ca n't have a repeat of what happened with tommy soto . are we clear ? dominic : like a bell . you give the order , i 'll make sure it gets done .

[ cell phone rings ] lucky : detective spencer . oh , yeah . thanks for callin ' me back . i was told that you took care of kate howard 's pool the night of the storm . right . is there any chance you remember what time you got onto the property that night ? 3 a.m. ? was there anyone there to let you in ? really ? that 's very helpful .

[ scene_break ] matt : you were good in there . you made robin laugh , which is hard to do these days . maxie : i was serious . lisa in shadybrook is a win - win . matt : and it 's a little scary how quickly you came up with that plot to frame her , so i 'm gon na have to keep my eye on you . maxie : okay , look . you just did something that i could n't . if i brought up therapy , robin would have looked at me like i was crazy . you made it sound like a good idea . matt : if she 's gon na invest in fixing her marriage , then therapy 's a good place to start . robin knows that . maxie : you know , for someone who 's so in love with himself , you 're very perceptive about people . matt : well , for an airhead blonde , you 're quite introspective yourself .

[ scene_break ] luke : you ... have n't seen you in a while . what do you want ? luke 's inner self : well , you see , the funny thing about me is the more you ignore me , the more i tend to collect all your crap , like a lint trap -- all the shattered pieces you leave behind , all the dirty little secrets . and then eventually the crap overwhelms , and there 's a systems breakdown , and then guess what . you end up talking to yourself ! luke : yeah , whatever . look , i do n't have time right now for any soul- searching , so beat it . i got a sick kid here . aiden : [ crying ] luke 's inner self : yeah . what was lucky thinking , putting you in charge ? luke : he told me there was n't even time to call an ambulance . luke 's inner self : well , he does n't see you the way i do . you 're looking a little shaky , captain . when was the last time you had a drink ? luke : well , you ought to know ! luke 's inner self : oh , you 're talking about that bottle of booze that was on the bar . i saw you crack open the top , but i did n't see you after that , because i turned away . i tend to do that sometimes . actually , i do it a lot . you look pale , pal . and it 's not just because you 've got the life of a kid in your hands , product of your own biology . man , talk about coming into life drawing the short genetic straw . luke : oh , great . that 's gon na be my fault , too , now , huh , whatever happens to this kid the rest of his life ? luke 's inner self : however long or brief that may be . the good news is you 've already passed the point on the road where you hit jake . of course , that was pretty close to the house . but it is , nevertheless , behind us [ chuckles ] so to speak . so , you do get points for that . so , let me give you some points here ... and ask do you want to play another hand , or do you want to cash in ? there 's still time to turn around and go back . i do n't know about the kid , though . something nagging at the back of your brain ? something you 're forgetting ? [ radio tuning ] luke 's inner self : what are you doing ? luke : searching for something to drown you out , something ... like blues . [ blues music plays ] luke 's inner self : you know , this is not exactly a pleasure trip . do you think it 's a good idea to be splitting your concentration like that ? your reflexes are n't what they used to be , and your mind right now is not exactly a razor- sharp tool . we need all hands on deck here , captain . luke : the only thing splitting my concentration is you . luke 's inner self : oh , wait . i think something is starting to come through the murky recesses . you 're starting to remember something ? what is it ? could it be that you have forgotten something really important ? you know , you have sacrificed about a colony of brain cells to john barleycorn , so if you search the ones that are left , what is it that you 're gon na find ? think about it . think . sounds like ... here , let me give you a hint . it 's an anniversary . it was a very special day that changed everything . and ... tick - tick - tick - tick - tick- tick- tick ! [ buzzer ] luke 's inner self : sorry ! time 's up ! thank you for playing . [ sighs ] by the way , it has n't been a year since you hit jake , so that was not it . luke : you think i do n't know that ? luke 's inner self : although i can certainly understand why that would be on your mind right now . your mind is quite a muddle there , captain . and i understand why . all those blackouts . all those days spent in self - loathing . all that time , you alternated between the bottle and the pleasures of the lovely lupe , trying desperately to blot out all the ugly memories . wait . wait . yes ! i see something wading through the muck and the mire ! [ chuckles ] that 's it ! you remember ! [ scene_break ] lucky : why did you write me that letter ? siobhan : just a feeling i had . lucky : yeah , but how could you know any of it ? siobhan : we mckenna 's , we have a thing with death ... seeing it , trying to look past it . fighting it 's no use , but you can sneak by it for a little while . lucky : yeah , but everything that happened in the churchyard , i mean , putting your grandmother 's rosary in st. margaret 's well , seeing the words written out in stones -- siobhan : you were n't the first . lucky : but your letter said that i was gon na get a message from you . siobhan : i did n't say that . lucky : yeah , it said that there would be one last message from someone i loved . siobhan : oh , and you assumed that it 'd be from me . lucky : i did n't think there was gon na be anything there , to be honest . siobhan : well , i suppose if you still have doubts , i can carry on this conversation spelling out words in cocktail nuts . lucky : [ laughs ] i - i -- sometimes i think it 's just all in my head . siobhan : head , heart , soul . it 's all connected . all connected to something bigger . lucky : i used to believe that . i wanted to . guess maybe i needed to . siobhan : you still do . or you would n't be having this dream . it makes it easier for you to see everything ... without it being drowned out by your anger , your loss , the cynical voice in your head that wants to reduce it to something as simple as santa claus or the tooth fairy . lucky : yeah , this coming from the woman who led me to a churchyard populated by wee folk , watchers , and -- and the people of the mounds . siobhan : it was the way of my ancestors and theirs . to try and answer the questions that people have been asking for centuries , the same questions that you 're asking yourself now . i saw you fighting yourself so hard , you were bumping into walls . maybe i wanted to ... spare you a few bruises on that handsome face . lucky : i should have been better to you . siobhan : better than what ? lucky : than what you got . siobhan : i was there for a reason . lucky : yeah , but you died . siobhan : also for a reason . lucky : yeah , well , i do n't know what the hell that could be . siobhan : you do . there 's just so much i can tell you , lucky . some of this has to come from your mouth to god 's ears . [ scene_break ] luke : laura . it 's my wedding anniversary . weddings , anniversaries . both of them . luke 's inner self : bull 's - eye ! give the man a kewpie doll . do n't feel too badly about having forgotten , captain . you 've got a lot on your plate right now . maybe laura forgot . luke : [ chuckles ] she 'd never forget . luke 's inner self : but she 'd forgive . she always did . course , she does n't know everything . lucky was wise , given the fragile state of her recovery , not to tell her that you had killed jake . luke : anybody on the road that night could have hit jake . luke 's inner self : so you keep telling me , telling yourself , telling everybody . but it was you , captain . luke : it was me ! it was not the booze . wrong time , wrong place . luke 's inner self : so , why are we off the sauce ? luke : i 'm making a point to the intervention lynch mob . the cult of 12 steps . luke 's inner self : you 're scrambling to remember those steps now , are n't you ? not that you ever intended to make the climb . but lucky spouted them like it was his job . so you read them . you studied them . you tried to understand him . you were hoping that they 'd give you a basis , a vocabulary to start over within . so , step number 1 . come on . you can do it . think . sounds like ... admit you are powerless over your addiction and that your life has become ... luke : unmanageable . [ bell dinging ] [ audience cheering ] luke 's inner self : no more calls ! we have a winner ! [ noise maker honks ] luke 's inner self : congratulations . and what do we have for our champion behind door number two , delores ? we have a spanking brand - new grandchild . [ grunts ] [ panting ] ahh . [ laughs ] hey , keep your eye on the road . you 're making me nervous . so , do we see these 12 steps as a weakness ? luke : oh , just -- just stay with the job at hand , please . luke 's inner self : it 's all that talk about god , is n't it ? those references to a higher being , which means religion . luke : that 's part of it . luke 's inner self : that 's something to be ridiculed . luke : how many people have been slaughtered , caged , or conned in the name of somebody 's higher power ? luke 's inner self : well , you 'll get no argument from me . luke : good . then just leave superstition and the sky gods out of it . luke 's inner self : great ! [ grunts ] that was invigorating . let 's see . those 12 steps -- is there anything in there we can use ? let me just check them out here . well , you know , step 8 is a beaut . it 's a classic , really . `` make a list of persons you 've harmed and be willing to make amends to them . `` luke : oh , god ! that 'd be a hell of a list . luke 's inner self : you think you even have time left on this planet to make up to all the people you 've hurt ? luke : there would only be one name on the first page , and that would be jake . nothing can ever make up for him . taking his future away -- that will never be right . never . luke 's inner self : yeah . what about the rest of the list ? luke : i made an effort with those who count . luke 's inner self : credit where credit is due . you did make an effort with the most aggrieved bunch -- lucky , ethan , lulu , tracy . but the way you went about it ... luke : inspired . luke 's inner self : lame ! dangling conflict diamonds in front of ethan , promising him a big father - son con job to make up for splitting on them all after the intervention . luke : they duct - taped me to a chair ! i do not react well to the public pillory . luke 's inner self : and then telling them all that you were gon na go to rehab when you knew damn well that that was a lie and just skipping out on them . luke : i came back . and that diamond thing could have been a big score for dodge . luke 's inner self : and what about tracy ? you divorced tracy . o - or did you ? i mean , really ? i - i 'm confused . i must have looked away . i 've missed a lot of your life . how much have you missed ? luke : it 's the thought that counts . [ scene_break ] ethan : luke spencer -- the man , the myth . that 's all i had to go on . that 's all i got from holly . that and a battered photograph . [ chuckles ] sore subject , holly , i realize . for me , too . you know , when i came to port charles , i was n't looking for a father . i was n't looking for a family . i was just looking to learn from a master , you know . the art of the con . [ chuckles ] certainly not the art of love . no , that was -- that was the biggest surprise of all ... learning about this -- this great love ... that you shared . [ sighs ] you knew who luke was . you knew his demons . you know , you watched as they devoured him . [ chuckles ] and you still loved him . my hope -- if someone like you were ever to come along -- you know , the real deal , not some -- not some cheap knockoff -- i hope that i am not my father 's son ... that i will not fight it ... or chase it away . lulu : so , when i get back , dad and aiden are gone , and there 's no note and no message , and he 's not answering his phone . tracy : i told luke to come and see his grandson , not take him . lulu : where would he go ? why is he doing this ? tracy : i do n't know . maybe he wants attention . lulu : what kind of attention ? to scare the hell out of everyone ? or to prove that he can hang out with his grandson without getting him killed ? oh , my god . i think that i did this . tracy : what are you talking about ? lulu : i was angry , so i went off on him about how he left and his drinking . tracy : was he drinking tonight ? lulu : he says that he was n't . tracy : you do n't believe him . lulu : how am i supposed to believe anything that comes out of his mouth ? he 's trying to make a point and prove me wrong , and i told him to stay here . tracy : okay , did you call ethan ? lulu : yes . he did n't answer . tracy : the haunted star ? lulu : no . tracy : okay , i 'll call . there 's a message . should i play it ? lulu : yes ! [ answering machine beeps ] lulu : elizabeth , if you 're there , pick up . it 's important . okay , you -- you got to call me back as soon as you can . it 's about aiden . [ scene_break ] siobhan : lucky ... it happened before -- death without just cause . lucky : jake ... who saved josslyn 's life with his kidney . siobhan : here we are . lucky : full circle . now my other little boy is sick . i - i do n't even know what 's wrong with him . i do n't even know if there 's anything wrong with him . and i 've gone and -- and put him in a car with my dad , who chose tonight of all nights to go over to elizabeth 's . he was the only one there when i called . siobhan : does it make you nervous that he 's driving ? lucky : what do you think ? i mean , dad set a new standard for self - destructive , even for a spencer . siobhan : runs in the family . lucky : i do n't know . maybe i 'm just -- i 'm just more like my dad than i care to admit . maybe there 's a part of me that just wants to finish what i started after losing jake -- you know , burning down the family house , popping pills ... ripping elizabeth 's heart out . siobhan : she still loves you . lucky : but you know what ? to be a true spencer , to really be my father 's son , what better way than to set one more tragedy in motion ? [ scene_break ] luke 's inner self : it was a test . luke : what -- lucky putting his kid 's life in my hands ? luke 's inner self : no , that was an act of desperation . you showing up at the door with the aa schedule . luke : it was a gesture ... a nod to his way of handling his problem . luke 's inner self : his addiction . courtesy of you . luke : oh , blah , blah , blah . i dried out . i sat through those meetings . luke 's inner self : yeah . for how long ? luke : long enough . luke 's inner self : you went for two weeks ! luke : that was enough ! how many druggies and drunks sit through that and go full in and then relapse ? luke 's inner self : if lucky bailed on his program , would that be some kind of vindication for you ? luke : of course not . i would n't want lucky to fail at anything he wanted to do . but i refuse to be a hypocrite . i refuse to pretend that i 'm sick when i 'm not . what good does that do anybody ? luke 's inner self : fair enough . ooh . 9 's another beaut . `` make direct amends to people whenever possible , except when to do so would injure them or others . `` i do n't think lucky needs to make amends to anybody . do you , captain ? luke : hell no . lucky 's a fine man . i 'm very proud of him . luke 's inner self : step 12 - - '' spiritual awakening . `` hmm ! luke : is that supposed to be you ?

[ chuckles ] no , of course not . foolish question . liquid courage . you know , i see -- i see what 's happening to you , what 's happening to the spencer legacy . all scattered . all trying so damn hard to find happiness but failing miserably . there 's luke denying his demons , lulu denying happiness , lucky denying reality . and then there 's me ... denying what ? how about ... what 's right before my eyes ? ow ! [ exhales sharply ] [ creaking ] ethan : [ grunts ] [ scene_break ] lucky : you know how all this turns out ? siobhan : hardly . ah , poor thing . it 's been through the mill , it has . ripped at the seams , stepped on , cast aside . ready to be traded in for something better and brighter . like your faith . lucky : no , i - i do n't know if i have any . siobhan : but you did . lucky : well , yeah . i mean , i ... i had faith in a lot of things -- my ... my father , my parents , their marriage ... love , elizabeth , nikolas . the list goes on . siobhan : and in the thrill of the chase and the catch and the con . do n't pretend you grew up some altar boy . lucky : [ chuckles ] does n't matter 'cause it 's gone now . siobhan : faith does n't go away . it gets tested . lucky : so that 's what this is -- a test . of what ? to see how much i can lose ? to ... see how far i can be beaten down ? how far i can be pushed un - until i stick a needle in my own arm ? siobhan : and if that does n't work , there 's always feeding you to the lions . lucky : i 'm no martyr , okay ? i 'm just a realist . siobhan : you 're so damn thick . lucky : now , see , there is something that we agree on . siobhan : do i really have to spell it out for you ? lucky : [ sighs ] siobhan : whether our prayers are answered or not , whether people disappoint us or not , you go on . you pray , you love , you trust , and you pass it along . lucky : yeah , that 's assuming that there 's anyone there to pass it along to . siobhan : faith by definition means that you keep believing even though you ca n't know . and with each new leap of faith that you trust yourself to make , your heart gets fuller . that heart of yours is shrinking away to nothing . it sounds like there 's still hope ... if you listen . [ scene_break ] luke 's inner self : whoa ! what was that -- a pothole , a 4-year - old ? do n't get reckless now . we 've still got a baby in the back . are you lucid , in control ? luke : [ inhales deeply ] will you just calm down ? i 'm tense enough without your hysterics . what purpose do you serve anyway ? luke 's inner self : you know . luke : riddles . luke 's inner self : no , truth -- painful truth . i 'm just here to hold up the mirror . and i 've been doing it for a long time , and , boy , is my arm tired . you have so many faces in the mirror , captain . good husband , bad husband , great loving father , heartless absentee dad , rapist , lover , killer , con , romantic , judge , jury , executioner ! luke : all right , all right . that 's enough ! luke 's inner self : what are we gon na do ? we 're both worn out from all the changes you put yourself through . your kids think that you are the greatest father in the world . and then when they grow up , you abandon them . people think you 're a drunk , so you sober up just to make them wrong . and when they 're still not happy because you do n't do it the way they wanted you to do it , you punish them . you push them further away . you could start a fight in an empty room . you 're a perpetual spinning top , captain , and we 're all getting dizzy . sick even . look what happened to laura . luke : oh ! oh , you 're gon na blame me for that ? you ca n't do that . t - that 's a mental illness . what are you gon na blame me for next -- global warming , the national debt , tramp stamps , silicon implants ? aiden : [ fussing ] luke 's inner self : hey , is this kid okay ? luke : i do n't know . keep an eye on him . luke 's inner self : you 're no doctor . you do n't know what you 're doing . luke : i 'm doing what lucky asked me to do . luke 's inner self : well , he must have been desperate or high to put you in charge of this . why did you even pick up the phone ? luke : now what are you saying -- that i should n't have picked up the phone ? i should have just ignored my son ? luke 's inner self : well , you 've ignored your daughter . luke : i was doing her a favor by staying away from her . i did n't know she 'd be at elizabeth 's when i went over there . luke 's inner self : why did you even go there ? luke : because the kid is my grandson , my flesh and blood ! luke 's inner self : well , keep your eyes on the road ! we ca n't afford to have the blood of another innocent child on our hands . [ scene_break ] ethan : well , here i am , back again , empty - handed . it ran fast and furious . [ scoffs ] of course , there 's always the thrill of the chase and what may lie at the end of it . who left that footprint ? oh , is it a homeless man , a horror ?

[ scene_break ] lucky : it just -- it just does n't make sense . siobhan : there 's your first problem . who says everything has to ? a part of you ... the part of you that 's looking at me right now ... is so damn scared . lucky : what , that i trusted my father ? that i may have put my son 's life in his hands ? siobhan : this could all be okay . that you showed faith . which is proof enough that you have n't lost it . lucky : well , if it turns out that aiden is sick and that this saved his life ... siobhan : then you 'd have to stop with the wisecracks about the wee folk and my ancestors . lucky : [ chuckles ] siobhan : you 'd have a responsibility to follow through . lucky : and do what ? siobhan : what 's next . only you can do that , lucky . nobody can tell you . not some scattered stones , not -- not even me . lucky : [ sighs ] i 'm just -- i 'm really , really tired of feeling this way . siobhan : so stop . stop wasting time . it 's all right in front of you -- in your children 's faces . what i would n't give ... lucky : i 'm gon na miss you . siobhan : good . that was the idea . or part of it . [ chuckles ] our , uh [ chuckles ] our motives ca n't all be pure . lucky : if i go back to st. margaret 's well ... looking for a message from you ... siobhan : i ... i ca n't be holding your hand forever , lucky spencer . the rest of the story is yours to tell and how to tell it . finish what you started . lucky : i - i do n't -- i do n't know what that means . siobhan : you do . you will . someday you 'll thank me for it . i have to go . lucky : go where ? siobhan : back . do n't be forgetting me . at least the best of me . [ scene_break ] tracy : lucky 's phone still is n't answering . lulu : well , the extra car seat is missing from upstairs . tracy : that could be bad news and good news . maybe luke is taking safety precautions with aiden . lulu : but how would he know where to find that unless lucky told him ? [ sighs ] why would lucky be calling elizabeth about aiden ? tracy : a health issue . lulu : we would know about that , the people who are babysitting him . none of this makes sense because lucky would n't want dad to get in the car with his son . tracy : well , whatever it is , luke decided he could n't wait for you . lulu : or he did n't want to wait for me . i should have never left him alone with aiden . tracy : lulu , do n't blame yourself . lulu : i did n't want him behind the wheel because i was afraid he had been drinking , and now he 's there with lucky 's son . [ scene_break ] luke 's inner self : what are you doing ? luke : i 'm just trying to stay calm by having a harmless conversation to pass the time . luke 's inner self : okay . let 's , uh , have a conversation about how you pass the time . the love of your life ended up in the funny farm . you current wife and your children have washed their hands of you . they 're trying to wash their hands of you . luke : lucky called me . luke 's inner self : you know , he 's lost his wife and his child . he 's choking with guilt and grief . he 's not exactly in his best decision - making mind . and now that you are lost in the frickin ' wilderness with one dead child on your conscience , you 're gon na go for another one -- lucky 's biological child , your grandchild ? [ horn honks ] luke 's inner self : watch it ! what the hell are you thinking about , huh ? you thinking about the 12 steps , the ten commandments , the bottle you left on the bar ? luke : shut up ! luke 's inner self : i saw you crack the bottle 's cap . i saw you , and then i turned away as i sometimes do . what did you do ? did you take a sniff ? did you stick a finger in ? did you drink the whole bottle ? is there an empty bottle laying on the floor ? did you drink so much you do n't remember ? ! luke : shut up ! luke 's inner self : you think you can fix everything , do n't you , captain ? you think no matter how many mistakes you make , no matter how much chaos you cause , you can always fix it . well , guess what . you ca n't ! [ horn honks , tires screech ] luke : aah ! [ scene_break ] ethan : why do i feel the need to keep coming back to this godforsaken rock , following this mystery ? huh ? why do i feel the need to risk something more , something real ? you know , maybe it 's -- maybe it 's just your way of ... welcoming me to the family .

[ door opens , closes ] tracy : no judge in the land is going to grant him bail . a.j . : guess again , aunt tracy . robert : how accurate are these visions of hers ? because if she 's telling you that she saw lavery but he did n't look like lavery , then i can actually go along with that . faison : [ as duke ] anna ? i was n't expecting you so soon . anna : yeah . i know . um -- shall i come back later ? lulu : olivia -- was injected with a massive overdose of lsd . robert : so she 's not exactly reliable . lulu : actually , she is . steve : whose face did duke lavery have ? was it someone you recognized ? olivia : i - i do n't know . but i 'll tell you what . if i ever see this guy in a dark alley , i 'm gon na run in the opposite direction . steve : he was threatening . olivia : that would be an understatement . this guy , whoever he was , is n't duke lavery . he scared the daylights out of me . faison : i 'll be ready in a minute . my apologies . i 'm not quite decent . anna : y - you do n't -- i 'll wait . you do n't have to be so formal . it 's not like we have n't -- faison : i like to answer the door as a gentleman . just give me a few more minutes to put on my game face , so to speak . patrick : so , who is the lucky guy ? i mean , i know almost everybody in the hospital , so i 'd be happy to make an introduction to you or even warn you -- whatever 's more appropriate . elizabeth : i 'm sure if -- sabrina : i never would have said anything if i knew you were standing there . patrick : but i am standing here . and i want to help . sabrina : it 's really -- patrick : plus , you know what ? i have a vested interest in you , okay ? you 're emma 's favorite babysitter , so she would never ever forgive me if i did n't take care of you . so come on . who is he ? sabrina : okay . okay . the gorgeous doctor -- who would never in a million years go out with me is -- it 's y -- your colleague , dr. webber . spinelli : wait . y -- you -- you made it very clear that our venture into coupledom was null and void and that you did n't look on me as anything more than a -- than a friend . so what -- what precipitated this sudden change in feeling ? maxie : it was n't all that sudden . remember when you came to see me after the pathogen scare and you told me that if you could n't have my love , you refused my like ? spinelli : in retrospect , that ultimatum seems arbitrary . maxie : well , it worked . i started missing you while you were standing right there , and then -- when you left , my mom told me this story about her and my dad and mac , and i realized she was right . spinelli : r - right about you and your mom and mac ? maxie : no , right about my feelings for you and that you are kind of like my mac . spinelli : you equate me to your stepfather ? maxie : no , it 's like a metaphor or a simile or whatever . look , the story does n't -- it does n't matter . my mom helped me realize that you 're not this -- dependable guy who i can just lean on whenever i need him and ignore him whenever i do n't . you mean a lot more to me than that . and once i was able to -- to look at my feelings , i could see them for what they were . spinelli : maxie , your feelings are mercurial on a good day . maxie : i love you . i 'm in love with you . sam : i ca n't believe this . a.j . is alive . michael : yeah . i could n't believe it either . sam : s - so where is he ? is he in hiding ? michael : was . now he 's locked up . sam : he 's been arrested . michael : my mom turned him in . and i 'm not allowed to go to the arraignment today . sam : oh , good , good , good . that 's just as good . i 'm sure it 's a circus down there . probably a ton of press . they would be all over you . michael : nobody thinks he 's gon na make bail . sam : good , michael . i mean , a.j . deserves to be locked up . monica : a.j . ! so good to have you home . a.j . : feeling is mutual . tracy : so , what did you do , bribe a judge ? hope you used your own money . monica : how i made bail , tracy , is no concern of yours . tracy : monica , you already helped him flee the country once . who 's to say you wo n't do it again ? a.j . : well , it 's gon na be a little difficult with this . apparently the judge agrees with you that i 'm a flight risk , so i ca n't leave the house . you happy ? tracy : confined to a luxurious mansion with servants at your beck and call . what will you do ? a.j . : first on the list -- see my grandfather . ooh baby , looks like you need a little help there anna : sorry i 'm early . i should have called , really . faison : do n't apologize . i was very excited about you seeing my place . anna : yeah , it 's really nice . suits you . [ sighs ] faison : is something wrong ? anna : yeah , well -- well , we were talking on the phone , you know , and i had to hang up 'cause someone came in . faison : bad news ? anna : ex - husband . faison : i 'm not following . anna : sorry . i do n't mean to be cryptic . even when he has the best intentions , you know , he just puts me on edge . faison : who ? anna : robert . faison : scorpio ? anna : one and only . robert : if she saw lavery and he had another man 's face -- lulu : duke lavery could be someone else . robert : did she know who that face was ? lulu : no . she did n't recognize him . she just said he looked different than duke . robert : but she must be able to describe him . how do i contact her ? lulu : uh , you want to question her ? robert : i 've got to know whose face she saw instead of lavery 's . patrick : wait , um , s - steve is the guy you 're talking about ? i 'm sorry , it 's just -- elizabeth : you do n't need to explain . i was surprised , too . patrick : i mean , not that -- he 's a great guy . i mean , he 's a gifted surgeon . he 's very -- you know , he 's handsome . i mean , i ca n't argue with that . sabrina : no , it 's true . my crush is definitely , definitely hot . patrick : yeah . look , under any other circumstance , i know that he would be very interested in you , but you know he -- he 's got a girlfriend . elizabeth : yeah , she knows . we were just talking about it . sabrina : yeah . she 's smart and -- accomplished and beautiful . everything that he wants . which makes it impossible for -- me . but i care about him . i have from the moment i first saw him . and knowing that he 's taken does n't make a difference . no matter what i do , i ca n't help the way i feel . a.j . : well , since everyone knows i 'm out now , i 'd like to say hello to my grandfather . we 've got years to make up for . tracy : absolutely not ! he does n't even know you 're alive . a.j . : well , do n't you think it 's time he found out ? tracy : you were n't supposed to stay in this house . you were n't even supposed to be released on bail . a.j . : tracy , circumstances have changed , and now i would like to say a proper hello to my grandfather . tracy : and give him a heart attack ? a.j . : oh , come on . he 's been complaining about that heart thing for years . it 's his standard manipulation tactic . tracy : he 's an old man with a heart condition . monica , could you back me up on this ? you know that his health is too fragile to withstand this kind of shock . monica : no , i think that finding out his grandson is alive would do edward a world of good . tracy : really ? hmm . and what if you 're wrong ? a.j . : why do n't we talk about the real reason that you do n't want grandfather to see me ? maybe you 're afraid that he 'll take elq away from you and -- i do n't know -- ask me to run it . tracy : [ laughs ] you 're not fit to run a bath , much less elq . my concern is for my father , whose health has been failing for months . but obviously his welfare is no concern of yours . so be my guest . kill your grandfather . michael : i know a.j . was wrong , but not everything that led up to it was his fault . sam : is that what he told you ? michael : he explained his side of the story . sam : yeah . his side . of course . it 's always about his side . he paints himself to be a victim . michael : the whole situation is a lot more complicated than i realized . i mean , my mom , my dad , a.j . -- they were all acting badly . they all crossed lines , and they did damage . sam : sonny and carly are far from perfect , but it 's nothing compared to what a.j . has done . michael : i do n't want my dad to go to prison . spinelli : why did you wait until now to tell me ? maxie : i have been trying to tell you i love you for weeks . i - i even worked up courage the night of the bachelor party . i came to see you . and i walked in , you were there with ellie . you were making a date . spinelli : i do remember your behavior was puzzling , even for you . maxie : so i thought i would have an opportunity the next day at sonny 's wedding , and then you arrived . you were with ellie . i realized that was the date you were making . spinelli : okay , well , why did n't you pull me aside , find a quiet corner ? maxie : there were no quiet corners at that wedding . spinelli : valid point . it was chaotic . but there was n't -- maxie : and then ellie just turned out to be so -- so nice . you know , i thought you were dating her because she was free at the time and i was still with matt , but -- now that 's settled . spinelli : `` settled `` ? maxie : well , matt and i are over -- emotionally and legally . i divorced him for you . spinelli : well , you should n't have done that . maxie : that 's not saying much of anything . spinelli , come on . what are you thinking ? patrick : we -- we ca n't help the way we feel about people . i mean , robin 's gone . it does n't stop me from loving her . elizabeth : and i lost someone that i cared about . it does n't mean that i - i do n't miss him . sabrina : [ sighs ] i apologize for being so self - absorbed . all i 've got is a stupid crush . it 's nothing compared to what you 're going through , dr. drake -- patrick : that 's not what i meant by that . elizabeth : it 's fine . sabrina : would you both do me a favor ? i would feel so much better if we just dropped the whole subject . lulu : olivia , i am so glad that we bumped into you . olivia : `` we `` ? lulu : this is robert scorpio , mac 's brother , emma 's grandfather . olivia : i 'm honored to meet the legend . robert : well , my pleasure . lulu : and i 'm not sure if you know dr. steve webber . steve : your reputation precedes you . robert : well , now that i 'm suitably embarrassed -- uh , olivia , i need your help . lulu : um , i hope you do n't mind i told him what happened with duke this morning . olivia : you mean that i looked at him and i saw a completely different person standing there ? robert : i need you to tell me about that person you saw . olivia : honestly , it was so random , i ca n't imagine it 's gon na be any help . robert : anything that you can remember -- any slight detail -- might help me uncover what lavery 's hiding . faison : i had no idea you were still in contact with robert . anna : yeah . well , i had n't seen him since before robin died . faison : so why did he choose now to come into your life ? anna : it 's luke , is n't it ? he 's , um , informed him that i 'm in danger . faison : from me ? anna : apparently . i do n't know who i 'm more angry at , really . luke , i think , probably . because he 's been suspicious ever since you returned . i wish -- i can understand . but this constant badgering , it just -- it 's wearing thin . and now robert 's told me that -- luke has gone to turkey . faison : oh , luke has gone to turkey to see whether my story of incarceration is fact or fiction . okay . so what did he discover ? anna : that it checks out . faison : [ chuckles ] anna : not one single discrepancy . which , for a normal person , would be a signal to just move on . but , no , luke has now managed to convince robert that this is a carefully constructed lie . faison : that 's a bit extreme , is n't it ? anna : it 's played right into robert 's paranoia . you know ? he 's been a spy his whole life . he 's looked for conspiracies around every corner . so now he 's here in port charles -- to save me -- from you . or myself . i 'm not really sure which . robert : lulu tells me you did n't recognize this guy who turned up in lavery 's place . olivia : i have never seen this man before in my life . robert : can you describe him , tell me maybe about scars , tattoos , anything about his face at all ? olivia : um , aside from the fact that he totally creeped me out -- he was smoking . anna : you know , i really like to think of myself as a patient person , but robert just -- god , he works my last nerve . especially when he does this whole macho - protector thing . faison : oh , perhaps robert 's just jealous . i do n't think he ever got over losing you to me . anna : he 's not jealous . he 's insufferable . they both are , for that matter . honestly -- all the pair of them have managed to do is persuade me -- to move out of luke 's suite . faison : and come straight here to me . michael : sam , you do n't know what prison 's like , okay , and i 'm not just talking about me -- getting raped . okay , i 'm talking about all of it . you 're always on guard . you never feel safe . i mean , the air is stale . it stinks in there . i mean , you feel like you 're in this long , gray tunnel , and you never know when you 're gon na see the light of day again . i do n't care what a.j . did to deserve it . i just do n't want to see my father in prison . sam : of course i can understand that . michael : yeah , well , my mom and my dad do n't . they hate a.j . , and he hates them just as much . and hearing them screaming accusations , still fighting over me after all these years , it just makes me sick . sam : i 'm sorry , michael . michael : most of all , i just want to get away from it , you know . sam : a.j . 's not your responsibility . i do n't think you have to worry about that . michael : i know he 's not my responsibility , but he 's still my father . you know , even though my mom wishes that he was n't . sam : you know what ? i -- i never knew my father either , and if he walked through that door right now , i would ... i would want to get to know him , no matter what anyone else -- michael : yeah , so you understand . sam : yes , but it does n't mean that you should forget who a.j . really is or that your parents , they love you . and if jason were here , he would be telling you -- michael : yeah , well , jason is n't here ! tracy : what are you waiting for , a.j . ? go up and see your grandfather . you 've always been a disaster , so for your grand finale , you can shock him into the grave . a.j . : i do n't want to hurt my grandfather . tracy : since when ? ! a.j . : since always , tracy . you know , what 's wrong with you ? no matter what you think , i love that man . and i 've thought a lot about him while i 've been gone . if you honestly believe him seeing me is gon na hurt him , then i can wait . tracy : what 's your angle ? a.j . : this may actually shock you , but i do n't have one . tracy : you can back off the phony nobility . nobody 's buying it . your doting mother is n't buying it . monica : who has complete faith in her son . tracy : wow . then you deserve what you get . you 'll both have to excuse me . i 'm going to check on my father . monica : [ sighs ] a.j . : mom , is , uh -- is grandfather really that , you know , fragile ? monica : well , he has his good days and his bad days . but i think if we prepare him , he 'll have no problem seeing you . and i want to thank you for taking the high road with tracy . a.j . : i want to thank you for believing in me . and for getting me the hell out of lockup . thank you . monica : you 're my son , a.j . i 'm not gon na leave you there . a.j . : how did you manage to wrangle my bail ? monica : unh - unh . it 's not important . a.j . : no . yes , it is important . monica : no . a.j . : the size of that bond -- it 's not exactly an amount you find underneath a pillow on a couch . monica : yeah , well , you 're right about that . i did not have a lot of options . so i was forced to put the house up as collateral . olivia : he was holding one of those little things in his hand -- a skinny little brown thing , like a cross between a cigar and a cigarette , you know . robert : cigarillo ? olivia : yes ! yeah , like -- like my uncle louie used to smoke in bensonhurst . lulu : did duke smoke ? robert : not when i knew him . what else can you tell me about this guy ? olivia : um , looked a little bit like that guy from `` silence of the lambs . `` robert : hannibal lecter ? olivia : yeah , but the face was kind of skinnier , and the nose was different , and the eyebrows were real bushy . lulu : look , you remember more than you thought . olivia : yeah , but how is this gon na help anybody ? steve : maybe there 's a way to get a picture of the guy . patrick : you know , you do n't need to feel bad , all right ? i was the one that was asking about something that i overheard . elizabeth : yeah . seriously , you have some deficiencies in your eavesdropping skills . patrick : okay . listen , i apologize , all right ? do you accept my apology ? sabrina : of course . patrick : okay . i got to get back to a patient . i will see you guys later . elizabeth : see you . sabrina : bye . oh , my god . elizabeth : three , two , one , and he 's gone . gone . sabrina : oh , my god . that was a total nightmare . like , literally , i kept waiting to wake up , because i could n't believe that even i could make such a fool of myself . elizabeth : relax . it 's fine , okay ? sabrina : are you kidding me ? i was a complete idiot . elizabeth : patrick put you on the spot . there was nothing you could do . sabrina : oh , god . except say that i was in love with steve ? elizabeth : he was the first guy you saw , was n't he ? sabrina : you 're not gon na tell him anything , are you ? steve : elizabeth . elizabeth : yeah ? steve : can i talk to you for a second ? elizabeth : sure . steve : in private ? elizabeth : yeah . do n't worry . your fake crush is safe with me . steve : thanks . we could really use your help . elizabeth : `` we `` ? what are you talking about ? steve : robert scorpio is here . elizabeth : that 's weird . patrick did n't say anything . steve : i 'm not sure he knows . but , uh , robert 's gon na try to decipher one of olivia 's visions , and i think you might be able to help him uncover something about duke lavery . anna : should i take one of these ? faison : oh , you know , i was n't sure what to get , so i had them send over a little bit of everything , hoping that maybe when i saw it , i 'd know what to do with it . anna : well , do n't look at me . my skills in the kitchen have n't improved . faison : well , i could use your company . anna : it 's about all i 'm good for . faison : [ chuckles ] anna : remember robin -- she used to like to be your sous - chef . faison : yeah , i remember it like it was yesterday . anna : yeah . she was so proud that one time you guys made a pizza . faison : [ chuckles ] one of my fondest memories . i loved that little girl . anna : she loved you , too . you were really good to her . sam : you 're right . jason 's not here . michael : sam , i 'm sorry , okay . i did n't mean it like that . i just -- i just wish i could talk to jason . you know , he could understand me no matter what i was going through . sam : yeah , he was pretty great that way . michael : i just miss him . sam : me too . i do , too . michael , i 'm gon na find him , and i 'm gon na bring him home . michael : sam , do you think that , uh -- you think that jason 's alive ? sam : yes . of course . i know in my heart that jason 's still alive . michael : yeah , you 're right . you 're right . i mean , he 's strong . he 'll figure something out . sam : yeah . he 's not gon na have to do it alone , either , michael . i 'm gon na rescue him , and when i do , i 'm gon na make whoever shot him pay . faison : well , dinner wo n't make itself . anna : no . okay . so , which way is the kitchen , that way ? faison : yes . that way . anna : all right , i 'll find it . faison : [ sighs ] maxie : spinelli , please say something . spinelli : i - i 'm trying to -- formulate my recollection . um -- i do remember you telling me that you were free . maxie : and you did n't say one word . spinelli : it was a rather precipitous announcement , considering it did come in the middle of the floating rib , when i was on a date with ellie . maxie : you 're always on a date with ellie . halloween , my birthday -- i thought i was gon na be able to celebrate that with you . and i wound up being the third wheel . i was lucky i got one measly dance with you . spinelli : you cut in on a dance with me and ellie . maxie : so i raised the topic of my divorce again , because it was n't embarrassing enough the first time . and again , you have this weird , like , nonreaction . you did manage to tell me that you did n't think matt was the right guy for me . but you just walked off . spinelli : i was distracted by an interesting costume . maxie : that does n't matter now . because right after that -- i saw you looking at me . and i know that you knew i wanted you back . you knew that night , did n't you ? a.j . : mom , dad gave you this house . how could you put it up as collateral ? monica : the bail was very steep , a.j . a.j . : you should n't have done it . monica : oh . look , i had not seen you or talked to you in years . i was not about to let you spend another night in jail , no matter what the cost . a.j . : i do n't even know what to say , except for thank you . and i love you . monica : all i ask of you is you be very , very careful . if you leave this property , the authorities are gon na know just like that , and i will lose the house . you will go right back to jail . a.j . : i wo n't risk your house or my -- tracy : hi . it 's tracy quartermaine . i need to find michael corinthos . i 'm nora . and i 'm nate . spinelli : it does n't matter , but you knew , and yet you still invited ellie to be your roommate . maxie : ellie invited herself . spinelli : yeah , but you agreed , despite my objections . maxie : what was i supposed to say ? `` sorry , ellie , no , you ca n't move in with me . i 'm in love with your boyfriend . `` spinelli : okay , maybe not that blatant , but some variation of the truth would have been helpful . maxie : i just figured when you would come over to see ellie i might have the opportunity to tell you how i feel . spinelli : it did n't occur to you to request a meeting at -- i do n't know -- a park , a restaurant , a quiet nook of a library ? maxie : no , that did not occur to me . and you know what else did n't occur to me ? that you would launch into an epic make - out session with someone else in my apartment , standing right in front of me . did you even notice that i disappeared ? spinelli : i assumed you went out to socialize . maxie : i could n't stand to see you with another woman . spinelli : you were jealous ? maxie : jealous . and completely heartbroken , so i started over to the haunted star and opened vein to dante and lulu . spinelli : you confided in others ? maxie : lulu told me she thought i should be honest with you and tell you how i feel , so i called your cell phone , but you did n't answer . spinelli : i was -- i was otherwise engaged . maxie : no kidding . i was determined to talk to you the next morning , until i saw you walk out of ellie 's room in nothing but your boxers , and that 's when i realized you did n't answer your phone because you two were having sex . spinelli : i apologize if i seemed inconsiderate , but -- i - i had no i -- maxie : sitting here with the two of you , i , um , i realized i had to be honest and just tell you how i feel . and that could have been a mistake . maybe not . but it 's your call . anna : what exactly are we celebrating ? faison : voicemail . [ both chuckle ] anna : thanks . faison : if it had n't been for the message you left me in d.c. , i would n't have known that you missed me . anna : oh . i was n't really angling for dinner . faison : you do n't have to be shy , anna . when i heard your voice and i heard that message , it was as if all those years just melted away . when you said you missed hearing my voice , well , i miss hearing your voice . anna : look , i still have feelings -- faison : we do n't have to answer all the big questions , like are we still married , or do we pick up where we left off ? we 're here together . that 's enough for me . to our future . [ glasses clink ] anna : to us . monica : we should probably give him a call and tell him -- tracy : monica , have you seen daddy today ? monica : not since this morning . why ? tracy : well -- i do n't know . he looks kind of pale . would you mind checking on him and making sure he 's all right ? monica : yeah . i 'll be right back . tracy : thank you . [ telephone rings ] [ beep ] tracy : quartermaine residence . wait . hold on . hold on . slow down . what ? where is he now ? is he all right ? okay . all right . okay . i understand . uh - huh . thanks for calling . a.j . : what 's going on ? tracy : uh -- nothing . it 'll be fine . a.j . : tracy , just tell me what 's going on . tracy : you have to promise not to overreact . a.j . : stop stalling and just spit it out . tracy : it 's about michael . michael : call me back . okay , bye . well , well , well . looks like somebody 's up early from their nap . sam : yeah . my big guy . michael : can i hold him ? sam : yes , yes , yes . of course . here . michael : daniel . sam : go to uncle michael . michael : how 's it going , big guy ? geez , he 's getting so big . you 're so big . you 're so big . sam : oh , i really wish jason was here to see this . michael : yeah . me too . and i 'm gon na tell you all about him when you 're old enough to understand . that 's crazy . sam : what ? michael : well , i do n't want to upset you , but he looks just like jason . sam : well -- sorry . yes , of course . he should . michael , jason is danny 's biological father . michael : h -- the dna test said that franco was the -- sam : i know . i know . we have heather to thank for that . she tampered with it . michael : are you serious ? sam : mm - hmm . i know . there are no words to describe , but -- now i 'm so happy . yes , jason is daniel 's father . michael : he must have been really happy to hear that . sam : well , actually , um -- michael : sam , you okay ? sam : it 's just -- i have n't had a chance to tell jason yet . michael : i 'm sorry . sam : no , it 's okay . because this way , when jason comes home , i 'm gon na have some really great news for him . michael : you hear that , danny ? your mom said your dad 's coming back . and it happened for me , so -- and i was n't expecting it , but -- my father came back . a.j . : what 's wrong with michael ? tracy : i do n't know . a.j . : who -- who was on the phone ? what did they say ? tracy : um , that was sam , and she 's with him . there 's been some kind of accident . they 're at jason 's . a.j . : what ? why the hell did n't she take him to a hospital ? tracy : i have no idea . a.j . : uh -- i have to get to my son . uh -- tracy : what are you doing ? a.j . : does jason still live in the harbor towers ? tracy : he does , but you ca n't go there . you have a monitor on . what are you doing ? ! a.j . : taking this damn thing off right now . tracy : a.j . , you ca n't do that ! a.j . , do n't ! wait ! if you do that -- a.j . : listen to me . screw the monitor , all right ? maxie : my heart is on the table . spinelli : this is -- maxie : the truth . i want to be with you , spinelli . i love you . do you want to be with ellie , or do you want to be with me ? monica : i do n't know what you 're talking about . he 's fine . well , now he 's a little cranky because i just , uh , woke him from his nap . tracy : i 'm not going to apologize for being concerned about my father . you may think that i 'm overprotective , but -- better safe than sorry . monica : where 's a.j . ? sam : i 'm really glad you came over . michael : yeah , me too . sam : i 'm gon na take this little guy upstairs . i think he needs to be changed . michael : all right . i 'll just walk myself out . sam : okay . hey , michael , do me a favor . remember what i said about a.j . just be careful , okay ?

when sonny returns home , ama , he is clearly not ok with having to have his house torn up in order to build wheelchair accessibility for him . he argues with carly , telling her he calls the shots about his house and what has happened to him and if she has a problem with that , she can move out and their marriage could end . she does not want to give up on her husband or her marriage when lucas comes by to suggest that maybe having a physical therapist would help sonny , reduce the stress for her and possibly save their marriage . having not only lost the use of his legs but also custody of his daughter to ava , sonny makes it clear he will not rest until he gets the goods on ava to prove that she 's unfit to have avery . he wants max to find a way to watch over her yet morgan wants to handle that `` responsibility `` and goes over to attempt to find out if ava has taken over julian 's old position as mob boss , against sonny 's wishes . while he talks to ava at her apartment , paul is also there and hides while attentively overhearing their conversation , confident that he and ava can out - smart morgan as well as help him engineer their plan to bring down sonny and make sure he is no longer a threat to either of them .

[ chuckles ] nelle : no , sadistic people do n't admit it . you know , they pretend to be kind . you , on the other hand , are genuinely kind , which i find to be a very rare quality . michael : rare . really ? well , who can be more kind than you ? after everything you 've done for my family ... nelle : that 's different , michael . michael : how ? nelle : when i showed up here , i basically had nothing . you know , i had a lot of questions about what happened to me as a kid . and your family gave me those answers , you know ? and then your mom gave me a job that was even better than the one that i had before , so of course , i want to justify her faith in me . of course , i want to go above and beyond for her . you know ? there 's nothing kind about it . michael : wow . you really ca n't take a compliment , can you ? nelle : [ chuckles ] pot , kettle . you wo n't even admit you 're a genius chess player . michael : well , i would n't -- i would n't say genius , but , uh ... ... i did just win .

[ scene_break ] nelle : you know , o - on second thought , um ... maybe this is n't a good idea . michael : the rematch ? nelle : it 's too easy to like you , michael . you know ? and that 's not good for either of us . if something were to go wrong and we were to get close -- you know , i work for your mom . how awkward would that be ? michael : wow . uh ... we went from touching hands to a bad breakup in like 30 seconds .

[ scene_break ] carly : does n't morgan 's death count for anything ? sonny : carly , come on . of course , it does . why would you ask me that ? carly : because you 're standing here telling me that if jason finds this other person that you would do it all over again . i ca n't -- i wo n't -- sonny : carly , i ca n't -- carly : i love you . i love you so much , and i always will , and i 'm so glad that you were not the one who killed morgan . but the one thing i learned , sonny , is that once the violence starts , there 's no way to control it , and you 're ready to start it all over again . something has to change . and if it wo n't be you , then it has to be me . yeah . sonny : car -- [ scene_break ] jax : you expect me to drive back to port charles without you ? alexis : it 's fine . jax : come on . alexis : really , i -- i 've got phone calls to make for the west coast that have to get done now . there 's no cell phone service on the roads . so go . i 'll be fine . i 'll take an über home . bartender : i got your tab . jax : you sure you want to stay here ? alexis : yes , i 'm sure . i 'm a big girl . thank you . jax : okay . well , do n't work too hard , okay ? alexis : i wo n't . jax : all right . come here . alexis : aww . what was that for ? jax : 'cause i love you . alexis : and i love you , too . jax : all right , well , take care of yourself . alexis : i 'll be fine . jax : be good , okay ? alexis : i will . could i have another one , please ?

[ scene_break ] father coates : lord god , ever caring and gentle , we commit to your love this little one , who brought joy to our lives for so short a time , and wrap her in eternal life . we pray for her parents , michael and samantha , who are so deeply saddened by the loss of their child . give them courage and help them in their pain and grief . may they all meet one day in the joy and peace of your kingdom . as sons and daughters of a loving god , we pray , in the confident words of his son , `` our father , who art in heaven , hallowed be thy name . thy kingdom come , thy will be done , on earth as it is in heaven . give us this day our daily bread , and forgive us our trespasses , as we forgive those who trespass against us , and lead us not into temptation , but deliver us from evil . `` amen . for the kingdom , the power , and the glory are yours , now and forever . `` amen . all : amen . father coates : this child was a blessed gift . she brought us joy . and in her memory , we will keep that joy in our hearts forever . life is precious and fragile , but life does not end on this earth . it continues in heaven for all eternity . [ scene_break ] alexis : no , you were right , i should n't have gone in there . all i did was add to their pain . ric : i think the best way for us to honor this child is to keep our distance . alexis : i hope that someday they know that i was grieving for their daughter and how grateful that i will always be for the generous gift that may have saved her life . [ scene_break ] skye : i 'm back . is it safe ? luke : yeah . she 's gone . you handled that beautifully , partner . if i do say so myself , i deserve a real drink . skye : do you mind telling me what you 've done with heather ? luke : are you asking if i killed her ? skye : of course not . did you ? luke : no , i ca n't . she 's the only one who knows where laura is . skye : do you think that she suspects that you 're onto her ? luke : no , i think she ate it up . i even threw in a few details about laura 's kidnapping . she asked all the right questions ; had all the right answers . you know , she 's getting kind of cozy with me . she 's comfortable ; she 's letting her guard down . she thinks we 're getting close . skye : famous last words . luke : no , i think it 's going to work . i really do . you know , most women seem to think that the best way to get close to a man is to get him to share his pain so they can bond . god , i hate that expression -- `` bond . `` anyway , that 's what she 's doing . and i think a couple more rendezvous , she 's going to spill the whole thing , including where she 's stashed my wife . skye : i know how desperately you want to find laura . luke : yeah , i do . the problem is what then ? [ scene_break ] alexis : the next time i ignore your warning that something is n't a good idea , remind me of today , will you ? i should 've respected sonny and sam 's grief , and instead i walked in there driven by my own need to feel better . ric : i think at this point , it 's all a matter of perspective . alexis : stop being so nice to me . ric : look , you said that every life matters and that when one ends , we need to acknowledge that it made a difference . yeah , you went to that chapel with good intentions . it -- it was just a poor error in judgment , that 's all . alexis : i just want them to forgive me . ric : you need to forgive yourself . alexis : i wish that i 'd just handled things differently . ric : alexis , you are a mother whose child had one chance at life , ok ? you may always wish that you would 've handled it differently , but , like everybody on that terrible day , you did what you felt was best . and it just so happens that your best saved kristina 's life . [ scene_break ] father coates : samantha and michael 's baby touched the lives of everyone here . if for even a moment or two she made us a little kinder , helped us to treasure the gifts around us , or caused us to take one extra minute to love each other , then her life had purpose and meaning .

[ scene_break ] jason : you were determined to get revenge , and now we 're all going to pay . sonny : i told you the russians were just waiting to make a move . you would n't take action , and now you let everything get completely out of control -- jason : it does n't matter . i got to clean up the mess . just stay out of the way . spinelli : the jackal 's certain that any questions you may have can surely wait . jason : it 's -- it 's okay , spinelli . lucky : do you have any idea how it started ? jason : just talk to my attorney , lucky . sonny : i came around . the place was on fire . it was trashed inside . you can probably find the accelerant around the bar . the barista was beaten up real bad . i helped him out , and then i went inside jason 's office , because there was a woman lying on the floor . her name is olivia falconeri . they 're both at general hospital . lucky : any idea who started it ? sonny : no , no , i did n't see anything . i assume they were after jason . [ scene_break ] patrick : [ whispering ] i got her to sleep . patrick : you okay ? robin : yeah . i 'm great . you look like you could sleep for a year . patrick : i 've done marathon surgeries . i 've driven a car for hours on end , and i 've never experienced anything like this before . robin : maybe it will get easier ? patrick : well , the book said that she should sleep from anywhere from 12 - 18 hours a day , so -- robin : yeah , i think that might mean every other hour . patrick : you know , i 've never been really big on counting my blessings . i was a little too arrogant for that . but emma changed that , and when i almost lost you , i honestly could n't picture my life without you , so i prayed for a miracle , and you 're here . robin : yeah . [ emma cries ] patrick : are you -- robin : oh . patrick : kidding me ? [ scene_break ] carly : i can not believe you 're falling for kate howard 's garbage . you know the only thing she 's after is revenge . jax : well , that is a matter of interpretation , now , is n't it ? carly : interpr -- jax : yes . carly : if she ca n't be with sonny , she does n't want you to be with me . i 'm sorry -- what 's to interpret ? jax : everyone warned kate about sonny , partly because of the mob and partly because he always ends up with you . carly : what are you doing ? i -- i thought we were getting somewhere here . jax : yeah , so did i , but you can be very persuasive , and i almost forgot that you and sonny will always end up in this dysfunctional dance , and the people who love you are the ones that get hurt . carly : jax , kate is just trying to get even , okay ? she 's probably going to start throwing herself at you next . jax : no , kate would never be that obvious . she would probably wait for me to make the first move , and perhaps i should . [ scene_break ] matt : olivia falconeri . monitor her blood oxygen levels . keep in at her breathing -- if -- well , if she does n't have any headaches or nausea , if she stays stable , she can go home tomorrow . elizabeth : did she happen to mention how she got caught in that fire ? matt : i 'm into the medicine , not the drama , but if she 's working for gangsters , what can she expect , right ? elizabeth : sonny , i 'm sorry to hear about that fire . sonny : it 's all right . they say olivia falconeri 's on this floor . matt : that 's right . sonny : are you her doctor ? matt : i am . sonny : olivia falconeri 's doctor ? matt : yeah . yeah , she 's fine . we 're monitoring her smoke inhalation right now , but she 'll probably go home tomorrow . elizabeth : room 1020 , down the hall . i have to get out of here early . epiphany : it 's none of my business , but if you 're going where i think you 're going , it 's a bad idea . [ scene_break ] olivia : it was n't that serious , honey . you know how hospitals are . i 'm fine . no -- yes . yeah , you can reach me here in the morning at the same number . okay . i love you , dante . sonny : are you in the habit of lying to your son ? olivia : i 'm sure what you meant to say was `` hello , olivia . i 'm glad to see you were n't badly hurt . nice to see you alive , taking in oxygen . `` sonny : what were you doing at the coffee house ? olivia : i was arranging protection for my cousin , with all that 's going on right now , if you must know . sonny : protection ? so you went to see jason instead of me ? olivia : you got that kind of staff anymore ? sonny : ouch . olivia : sonny , what were you thinking starting this war you 're in no position to fight ? sonny : so , now it 's my fault ? i just saved your life . at least you could show me a little gratitude . olivia : yeah , i 'd show you a hell of a lot more gratitude if i was n't in the middle of some mob war that you brought down on all of us . [ scene_break ] spinelli : how shall stone cold address this grievous wrong ? rest assured , the jackal will be at your service should you decide to take it to the mattresses , as it were . jason : it 's -- it 's `` mat . `` you take it to the mat . like -- like in wrestling . spinelli : do you mean like in greco - roman or professional ? oh -- just -- regardless , i am prepared to man up and assist if required . jason : give me a second . okay , i need you to go home . i need you to find out if karpov has any connections to any major drug cartels , okay ? i need you to see if you can find out about the russian tattoos . find out who 's paying for this , and find out where they 're staying in port charles . spinelli : you 're send -- i get it . you 're sending me home to keep me out of harm 's way , i -- jason : no , no . it takes a lot of courage to do what you do for me . i need your help with this . i know you 're going to do a good job . spinelli : okay , i 'm sufficiently soothed . jason : listen , i trust you , okay ? find out as much as you can , as fast as you can . spinelli : i 'm on the case . jason : now we take the russians out .

dominic : hey . i knew i 'd find you here . she must have come back for the eggplant . come on , i 'll get us a table . lulu : no , i am asking you what you would do if you found out a certain cop was gathering evidence against you . dominic : uh , we do n't ask those questions here . the answers are nothing you want to hear . [ scene_break ] lucky : it 's a simple question , maxie . did you see sonny come and go from his house the night claudia disappeared ? maxie : no . i did n't see anyone . lucky : when did you become such a terrible liar ?

[ scene_break ] nikolas : well , it 's very generous of you to want to throw an engagement party for lucky and elizabeth . rebecca : it really was edward 's idea . nikolas : right , it 's just , unfortunately , luke and i at the same table would n't make for a happy occasion . things between us have deteriorated a bit as of late . rebecca : that 's my fault , because of ethan . nikolas : heh , i 'm afraid this goes beyond luke standing up for his son . my fear is that he is on his way back to treating me like his enemy . rebecca : tracy will keep luke in line . nikolas : no , tracy has her own issues with you . rebecca : that 's true . nikolas : she 'll claim that you have some ulterior motive for throwing a party , and i do n't want those accusations feeding into any suspicions that elizabeth may have . and then , of course , you have to work some magic with the seating chart , so we 're not all sitting around the dinner table giving each other dirty looks . rebecca : hmm , yeah . so maybe dinner at the quartermaines is n't the best idea . yeah . nikolas : yeah . rebecca : but that does n't mean we ca n't do something for lucky and elizabeth at wyndemere . [ nikolas sighs ] [ scene_break ] lulu : so dominic speaks for you now ? dominic : that 's not what -- sonny : i think he speaks for everyone , the amount of words that come out of his mouth . my word is very important to me . lulu : i know that . you have always been straight with me . that is what i appreciate . sonny : good . lulu : but it 's every officer 's sworn duty to uphold the law , and some of them would do whatever they can to bust you . sonny : let me make something very clear -- i would never , under any circumstances , lift a hand against lucky . he 's your brother . lulu : the cop . sonny : i respect your father a great deal , and his children are pretty much out of bounds . lulu : so are you saying that you would n't act to protect yourself if the officer coming after you was the son of a good friend . sonny : what i 'm saying is , it 's not going to come to that . lulu : [ chuckles ] you seem pretty confident about that . sonny : lucky is not going to make a case against me because -- no cop has and no cop ever will . [ scene_break ] maxie : what reason would i have to lie about sonny ? lucky : i do n't know , maybe you 're scared . maybe spinelli 's involved . maxie : if you had anything on spinelli , you would n't be talking to me , would you ? and frankly , i do n't think it 's a good idea that you question me , period . it will just lead us down a depressing , dreary trip to memory lane when we were together and you were cheating on your wife and you were addicted to pills that i supplied . let 's not forget i also faked a pregnancy . no , no hallmark memories there . let 's just be grateful that we both found someone who brings out the best in us , and move on . lucky : you saw sonny that night , did n't you ? maxie : you said that , i did n't . lucky : you 're spinning pretty hard to avoid giving me an answer . this whole claudia thing , it 's not going anywhere . maxie : are we done ? lucky : i 'm an addict , okay ? i got pretty good at denial . but i also learned how to recognize it in other people . you were out there that night . you could n't have had a better view of sonny 's front gate than if we were on a stakeout . maxie : fine . you want my statement about the night in question ? lucky : no , i want the facts . maxie : yeah , i was at kate 's house waiting for the pool guy . and it was dark . it was also raining , and my shoes were muddy and i could n't see out my front windshield , let alone to the house next door . there you go . lucky : and ? maxie : that 's all i have to say . lucky : that 's all you have to say ?

[ scene_break ] nikolas : why are you suddenly so determined to celebrate lucky and elizabeth 's engagement ? rebecca : well , lucky has been more than fair to me . even when he found out that i was lying , the way he handled it was just so -- nikolas : honorable ? rebecca : exactly . and though i probably deserved it , there was no vindictiveness . there was nothing mean - spirited about his actions . he did n't try to embarrass me or take away my dignity . he was just trying to do right by his brother . nikolas : yeah . rebecca : in looking back on it , as painful as it was , i 'm grateful to lucky for bringing out the truth . it must be so difficult for you . nikolas : huh ? oh , yeah . rebecca : everywhere you go , it 's filled with memories , huh ? nikolas : yeah . rebecca : i know we have n't talked about it yet , but i know what today is . nikolas : yeah . two years ago today . rebecca : you all lost emily . nikolas : and you lost her , too . or the chance to know her , anyway . rebecca : yeah . i 'm sure i would have been a better person , had i known her . nikolas : we all would have . rebecca : see , that 's something else we have in common . nikolas : yeah , what 's that ? rebecca : well , you came to port charles and you found a sibling . you got to know your brother . and i 'll never have a chance to know my sister , but i can honor her memory by getting to know the people that she loved . let 's go back to wyndemere , nikolas . we can have dinner in the turret room .

[ scene_break ] [ franco clears throat ] kiki : here comes the lecture . franco : no , it 's not a lecture . it 's more of a conversation about the current state of the liquor cabinet . kiki : hey , i have n't touched a drop in the past 24 hours , okay ? franco : i noticed . you had a monumentally painful day in court , and you managed to stay sober . kiki : your point ? franco : i 'm proud of you . kiki : you are ? franco : i am . however ... you need to stop insulting nina . you 're only lashing out at her because you hate your own life . kiki : [ chuckles ] excuse me ? franco : you 're lost , right ? that does not give you permission to try and tear down someone who 's working so hard to build her life back up . if anything , you could tear a page from nina 's book . kiki : yeah , you 're right . why do n't i just call up my uncle julian ? maybe he needs a new cfo . franco : why do n't you do that ? why do n't you go get a job ? kiki , a job would be good for you . give you a reason to get out of bed in the morning . a job might give you purpose . kiki : sure could use one of those . franco : who knows ? it might help you stay away from the liquor cabinet . [ scene_break ] maxie : i need the revised numbers for october -- subscription and newsstands . and i want it broken down by region , and i need the demographics . get those numbers to me as soon as you can . lulu : well . that answers that question . maxie : hey . what question ? lulu : how glad are you to be back at crimson ? maxie : [ sighs ] i felt like i was in one of those dingy black - and - white noir films that spinelli loves so much , and now all of a sudden , i 'm in technicolor . seriously , lulu , i missed it so much , i had trained myself not to even think about it . [ telephone rings ] maxie : hold on . this is maxie . no , it has not been approved ! ms. reeves will want to make revisions . stanley in layout ? can you believe he 's still trying to sneak things by without approval , as if she would n't notice when the issue goes to print . lulu : how is nina going to make notes on a layout ? maxie : hah , i 'll walk her through it . remember how i used to gently suggest things to kate , and she wound up thinking they were her idea ? lulu : yeah , but kate was a brilliant editor - in - chief , and nina , not so much . maxie : okay . i 'm not gon na lie . crimson is in some serious trouble , but it can be saved . it just needs a little effort and vision , and i have plenty of both . lulu : well , i do n't doubt that for a second , but it 's not like julian hired you to be the editor - in - chief . he hired nina -- no connections , no experience . she 'll be lucky if she lasts three issues . maxie : [ clears throat ] nina : i 'm nina reeves , editor - in - chief , and you are ? lulu : lulu spencer . maxie : uh , lulu is my best friend . she just came by to drop off dinner . nina : oh , sweet . that 's what friends are for . nice to meet you , lulu . you 're welcome back here any time . lulu : thank you . um , i will let you get back to work . maxie : uh , nina , i put that list of resort themes on your desk . nina : oh , okay , well , then , i 'll go look at it . maxie : okay . nina : wow . um , when i left here , it was a lot messier . maxie : yeah , i straightened up for you . i hope you do n't mind . kate always said organization was key . nina : oh , yeah , i agree . so , thank you , or kate , or whoever . maxie : [ chuckles ] nina : i 'll definitely do that . i 'll try to be more organized . maxie : well , i wanted to make everything easier for you . oh , so i put it all in one place . here . nina : oh , god . that 's enormous . what is that ? maxie : crimson . i compiled every bit of information i could find -- circulation , ad revenue , specific issue sales . nina : those are a lot of numbers . maxie : yeah , and none of them are good . circulation is miserable , ad revenue is even worse , and sales -- well , those started plunging when kate took her sick leave , and they never really recovered . nina : got it . got it . um ... how do you suggest , uh , we change that ? maxie : well , we need to get crimson back to its roots . make it fabulous again ! [ chuckles ] that 's gon na require a complete overhaul . nina : okay , good . all right . um , where do we start ? [ scene_break ] valerie : i tried to switch with another cadet . dante : no , do n't be silly . we 'll just be professional , right ? valerie : right . professional . um , what is -- dante : sorry . there you go . good as new . valerie : i guess you have n't been eating much at home lately . dante : well , i 'd like to pretend that 's the truth , but really , that 's just -- just how it is when you 're on surveillance . [ chuckles ] valerie : so , what are we watching ? dante : uh , third - floor window . it 's an apartment owned by a woman . she 's the wife of a known drug dealer . he skipped town , but we got intel saying that he 's back . valerie : oh , any luck ? dante : nothing yet . mostly just a couple of girlfriends and a plumber . valerie : oh , wait . some guy just walked in . she 's kissing him . must be her husband . dante : here , let me see . uh ... nope , that is ... the boyfriend . yeah , she 's been cheating on her husband for months . i feel kind of sorry for the guy . but i guess i ca n't really , uh ... talk . valerie : neither can i . [ scene_break ] sonny : what exactly am i doing ? carly : forcing me to leave before the going gets tough . you 're my husband . whatever happens , i can take it . sonny : you should n't have to . that 's the thing , carly . carly : why ? why , because you 're so invincible ? sonny : [ sighs ] carly : i know the last thing you wanted was to let ava get to you in that courtroom . sonny : but she did , and we lost our little girl because i had a weak moment . that ca n't happen , carly . you show any weakness , and your enemies , they swarm at you like a shark . carly : i 'm not your enemy . i 'm not your enemy . i am your wife , and i meant every word of the vows i took . and if you did n't , you need to tell me . really , you need to look me in the eye , and you need to tell me that our marriage is a lie . [ scene_break ] alexis : so , did i mention that kristina is coming home for thanksgiving ? julian : you did . alexis : yeah ! so , how about brad and lucas come over and leo ? julian : you want to tackle a huge dinner party and a baby ? alexis : yeah , i do , because it 's our first thanksgiving in our new home , and i want all of the family together . do you think that olivia might let us have leo for the day ? julian : [ sighs ] you are amazing , you know that ? alexis : mm - hmm . yeah , i know that . so , uh , do n't be too late . julian : mm - hmm . i wo n't knowing what 's waiting for me at home . alexis : bad luck with crimson . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] kiki : who is it ? morgan : it 's me . hey . kiki : what ? morgan : just wanted to make sure you were okay after what happened at the courthouse yesterday . franco and nina home ? kiki : no , actually . believe it or not , they are both at work . franco 's off getting a psych eval to make sure that he is sane enough to be an art therapist , and for reasons unknown , my uncle hired nina as the new editor - in- chief of crimson . morgan : seriously ? kiki : yeah , i could n't make that up if i tried . now that both of my roommates are gainfully employed , franco 's been on my back about trying to fill my days with something productive . [ scoffs ] and i 'll never tell him that he 's right , but you know ... he 's kind of right . morgan : hmm . kiki : i want a job . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : good . you 're early for your appointment . very conscientious . franco , i would like to introduce dr. andré maddox . he 'll be administering your psychological evaluation . dr. maddox , this is franco . franco : nice to meet you . andré : it 's good to meet you , too . i 've read so much about you . i barely know where to begin . dr. obrecht : do not be confined by linear thought . begin anywhere . andré : very well . shall we begin ? it appears you have quite a fascination with death . franco : yeah , i thought you might want to get to that . um ... [ sighs ] i have destroyed lives . i have taken lives . but it must say in there somewhere that i had a tumor in my brain , and people in your community have said that i was n't even acting of my own volition . andré : a tumor that was surgically removed . franco : right . so i 'm no longer under the influence , right ? everything 's okay , right ? andré : but i still have questions regarding the crimes you 've perpetrated since the tumor was removed . [ scene_break ] maxie : we need to produce a magazine worth advertising in . oh , here . i have an example . couture just did a photo shoot in morocco . nina : oh . oh , wow ! that 's beautiful ! the colors just bounce off the page . i - i want to do that . can we shoot in morocco ? maxie : um , well , we ca n't shoot at that exact location because people will say we 're ripping off the competitor . but we can shoot somewhere else in morocco , if you want . nina : oh , okay . uh , how do we make that work ? maxie : um ... you 'll need to find some wiggle room in the budget . maybe talk to julian about it . julian : somebody say my name ? nina : oh ! oh ! julian ! just the man we needed to see . julian : really ? so you ready to share a progress report with me ? [ scene_break ] sonny : no , i meant my vows . carly : i know . sonny : i just hate being stuck in this damn chair . carly : i know that , too . what are we gon na do about it ? sonny : well , first of all , i 'm gon na apologize and tell you that i 'm sorry for how badly i 've been treating you lately . i mean , you 've done everything , you know , to help me , and all i 've done is take out my frustration on you . carly : it has to stop . sonny : i just wanted to , you know , i -- to thank you . i mean , i hate that you have to do anything , but it means a lot to me . carly : [ sighs ] i know how difficult this is for you , but i need you to remember two things . sonny : mm ? carly : one , you 're still the same stubborn , determined , indestructible man that i married five times , okay ? so this setback does n't change anything . sonny : what 's the other thing ? carly : that if what happened in court has taught you anything , it 's that flying off the handle and having these tantrums -- that 's not strength , sonny . it 's stupidity , and stupidity is what ? sonny : weakness . carly : that 's right , weakness . do n't do that , okay ? because right now , even in this chair , you 're stronger than ever because we 're together , and i 'm not going anywhere . [ door opens , shuts ] nathan : [ clears throat ] sorry to interrupt . guard let me in . sonny : what can we do for you , detective ? nathan : i have information about carly 's accident . [ scene_break ] olivia : hey , honey . trying to forget your troubles ? lulu : it 's just soda . i need a little caffeine before i pick rocco up . olivia : [ laughs ] yeah . you know ... i always wanted to give dante a little brother or sister . i just -- i do n't think there was any way i could have managed it . you know , it 's ... no walk in the park being a single mother . lulu : i 'll bet . olivia : yeah , but you have one thing that i did not have -- that 's a man who loves you , who will always be there for his children . lulu : olivia . olivia : honey , i know . i know that things are up in the air between you and dante right now , but i hope you do know that dante will always be present in his children 's lives . lulu : right now , i have no idea what i want . [ scene_break ] dante : no , i appreciate the advice . all right . yeah , you too . see ya . that was a lawyer buddy of mine . valerie : everything all right ? you and lulu are talking lawyers now ? dante : i needed to find out if both parents need to authorize the implantation of an embryo . we had an appointment with our fertility doctor . valerie : how 'd it go ? dante : all plans right now are , uh , currently on hold . valerie : oh ? dante : yeah , but i thought there might have been some hope for a second there , but , uh ... that did n't last long . valerie : sorry to hear that . dante : uh , no . you know what ? i 'm sorry for bringing that up around you . valerie : do n't worry about it . let 's just talk about whatever you normally talk about in a stakeout . dante : [ laughs ] stakeout . uh , the funny thing is is that is what we 'd be talking about . cops spend so much time together , they end up bonding over some pretty crazy stuff . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , you finally got a lead ? i mean , carly could have died , and , you know , we do n't know who ran her off the road . nathan : well , we got an eyewitness that gave us the make and model of the car . [ cell phone rings ] nathan : hold on one second . west . n - no , that 's great . yeah , i 'll , uh , i 'll be right over . i 'll keep you posted . carly : oh . sonny : well , that was ... strange . carly : yeah . sonny : well , at least , you know , they got that maniac off the road . i want to think about happier things , though , like you . [ knock on door ] epiphany : hey . security said to come on in . carly : mm - hmm . [ scene_break ] paul : i thought you were ambitious , that you were ready to take what you wanted , consequences be damned . maybe all that time playing footsie with morgan changed your priorities . maybe now your greatest ambition is to be the happy homemaker . ava : i do n't want that or any other kind of life with morgan . paul : you know , i heard your voice when he was here . you sounded like a woman who was desperate for a little attention . who knows ? if i was n't here , maybe you would have thrown yourself at the kid right then and there . [ ava slaps paul ] paul : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] sonny : [ chuckles ] epiphany , are you here to visit or what ? epiphany : did n't carly tell you ? i 'm your new physical therapist . carly : yeah , i spoke to lucas , and we thought it would be a great idea for you to have some support here at home -- sonny : carly , can we go in the kitchen and talk for second right now ? carly : or you can check back into the hospital . epiphany : let 's see here . have you been doing your prescribed exercises ? carly : um , well , we missed a few . there were some other issues going on . epiphany : huh . you know , for someone who spent so much time in the hospital yelling and screaming about how he 's gon na walk again , you seem to be bound and determined to do everything you can to stay in this chair . now let 's get started . carly : well , i 'm here to help with anything you need . epiphany : that 's good . you can leave . carly : leave ? but -- but -- epiphany : you hired me to work with sonny , not tag - team with you . and his exercises and therapy will go much more easily if i am completely focused on him . so , if you do n't mind ... carly : i do not mind . sonny : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . carly : i do n't mind . i 'm gon na go . i love you . i love you . do n't be mad at me . [ smooches ] okay . [ door closes ] epiphany : looks like it 's just you and me . [ scene_break ] morgan : you want a job doing what ? kiki : um , probably something that requires minimal experience . morgan : what kind of legit experience do you have ? kiki : [ laughs ] i worked at a crab shack one summer . morgan : okay , all right , well , then you could be a waitress , maybe at the metro court . i 'm sure my mom would hire you . [ knock on door ] kiki : hold that thought . who is it ? nathan : kiki , it 's nathan west . kiki : um , hi . hi . are you looking for nina ? nathan : no , actually , i 'm here to see franco . [ scene_break ] andré : last year , you took several people hostage , including a woman you were about to marry . you then fled the country with a woman who 'd kidnapped an infant . franco : right . t - that woman -- my nina -- she was n't well , and she thought that the baby was hers , and -- okay , you do n't know her , but it 's hard to talk her out of anything . so , i went along with it , and the whole time i was trying , gently , to get her to bring the baby back , but i felt that being with her was the only way that i can ensure that the baby and nina were both safe . andré : i see . that sounds like nina 's very important to you . franco : she 's the best friend i ever had . andré : and your lover ? [ scene_break ] nina : it seems that circulation of the magazine has been steadily , uh , plunging . and we have a way to course correct . julian : well , great . so , what do you have in mind ? nina : what we have in mind is to raise the level of the magazine -- sumptuous locations , gorgeous clothes . julian : well , that sounds very interesting . have you had a chance to look at the budget , though ? nina : of course . absolutely . maxie . maxie : um , section 3 . julian : because i think if you run the numbers , you 'll see that you do n't have the money for what you 're suggesting . like , here 's what i would do . i would focus on something that does n't cost you any money . you know , think social media , and why do n't you work on upping crimson 's online profile , okay ? so , let me know how that goes . nina : sure . julian : all right . [ scene_break ] olivia : honey , i know what dante did was terrible , but maybe there 's a way the two of you can work this out . i mean , have you thought about talking to a counselor ? lulu : i think you 're only supposed to go to counseling when you want to try and work things out , and i -- olivia : and you do n't ? lulu : i do n't know ! i am so angry at dante . when i 'm by myself , and i just think about forgiving him , it makes me more angry . olivia : you sure you 're not italian ? lulu : i saw dante at the fertility doctors , and i can see the hurt in his eyes , and part of me wishes that we could just pretend like none of this ever happened . olivia : it sounds to me like you are having both sides of this conversation . lulu : i guess i am . olivia : a conversation like this needs to have two people . so , if you 're not gon na see a counselor , maybe you need to talk to dante . lulu : [ sighs ] [ cell phone rings ] dante : lulu ? lulu : hey , uh , do you have a minute ? i was hoping we could talk . dante : i do n't , actually , right now . i 'm kind of in the middle of something . lulu : okay . yeah , no problem . i ... i just wanted to tell you that you can take rocco tomorrow for as long as you 'd like . dante : okay . thanks . i appreciate that . lulu : i 'll see you tomorrow . dante : see you tomorrow . [ scene_break ] paul : struck a nerve , did n't i ? ava : do n't you dare question my ambition . i will get the job done and without morgan . paul : oh , perhaps it 's for the best . i would n't want to compromise your loyalties . ava : [ breathing heavily ] let go of me . paul : or what ? [ knocking on door ] carly : ava , it 's carly . open this door . ava ! ava : [ sighs ] bodyguard : sorry , ms. jerome . she insisted . ava : yes , i 'm sure she did . hello , carly . to what do i owe this great pleasure ? carly : well , i did n't get a chance to tell you what i thought about that ambush you pulled in the courthouse yesterday . ava : oh . can i help it if a few harsh words got sonny all riled up ? it was such an obvious tactic . i never dreamed it would work , but it did , and i won . for now . carly : avery 's the one who lost , though . get ready for the fight of your life , because this is n't over until avery forgets who you are . ava : hmm . well , thank you for the heads - up , i guess ? i 'll make sure that my lawyer gets extra prepared . carly : right . ava : now get the hell out of my house . carly : gladly . morgan got this for avery , and it 's supposed to be in her nursery at sonny 's house . what the hell is it doing here ? morgan was here . ava : yes . not by my invitation , but he was here . carly : okay , i get that you do n't give a damn about kiki , and you do n't care how much you hurt her , but morgan is my son , and you will never hurt him again . ava : i ca n't help it that he ca n't stay away from me . carly : see , i 'm not like you . i do n't ignore my kids until i decide to use them . i protect my children . ava : do n't you mean control them ? carly : i have resources ... that you never dreamed of . if you go near morgan again , you will regret it . [ scene_break ] kiki : so , you 're here to see franco ? nathan : i just have some questions about a pending investigation . kiki : huh . okay . uh , yeah , he 's at general hospital . nathan : all right , do you know who he 's seeing ? kiki : just a meeting . i do n't know . nathan : all right . thank you . i 'm sure my mother can point me in the right direction . kiki : phew ! i was so worried for a second . i thought he was here to arrest me . morgan : yeah , i would n't worry about that . kiki : i ca n't really help it . so , you think your mom will really hire me ? morgan : i mean , she has to be grateful for what you did in the courtroom . and working for my mom would piss your mom off , which is a huge bonus . kiki : yeah , but i mean , do you think she would really want to give a job to somebody who , you know , possibly ran her off the road ? morgan : whoa . we do n't know that you did that yet , and even if you did , no one has to know . [ cell phone rings ] morgan : hey , mom . what 's going on ? carly : i need you to meet me at the hospital . morgan : why , what 's going on ? carly : just get there ... now . [ cell phone beeps ] kiki : what was that ? morgan : i do n't know . my mom told me to meet her at the hospital . [ scene_break ] paul : carly 's quite the mama bear . ava : as if carly knows one damn thing about family ! that woman has worn more wedding rings than she 's got fingers ! and there is no way in hell i will ever let that woman be a mother to my daughter ! paul : will you look at that ? at last , the real ava jerome decides to make an appearance . [ applauds ] [ scene_break ] franco : i do n't see how this is any of your business , but no , we have not ... yet ... consummated our relationship . andré : why not ? franco : [ scoffs ] i 'm sure there are many reasons . all right , for me , one of the reasons is that there 's a big gap in our finances . i mean , she 's got a ton of money , and i do n't have any money , and that would be the gap . and ... well , that 's one of the reasons that i really need this job ... is that i would feel more like i have value . i could prove to her that i 'm worthy . andré : [ sighs ] franco ... ... are you just telling me what you think i want to hear ? franco : no , i never do that . i never tell anybody anything that they want to hear . andré : saying you want to live your life with integrity sounds good , but are you willing to put in the work ? are you ready to live your life , for lack of a better word , `` normal ? `` [ door opens ] dr. obrecht : well ? did franco pass ? andré : i would n't say he failed , but i will need to see him again . dr. obrecht : that was n't the agreement . the policy states franco only needed to appear for one session , which he did . congratulations , franco , and welcome back . franco : thank you . andré : but -- dr. obrecht : thank you , doctor , that will be all . franco : hey , you want to entertain yourself ?

[ scene_break ] anna : are you okay ? griffin : yeah . i just -- this is all happening so fast . you know , hours after getting proof that valentin is charlotte 's father ... anna : we get a call ordering us to appear in family court . i think , as soon as we left with charlotte , he petitioned the court scheduling the custody hearing for this morning . griffin : how could he even do that ? anna : i do n't know . he has to be very well - connected in port charles . or his lawyers are . either way , he 's gon na need more than biology on his side . griffin . griffin ? griffin : sorry . i , uh ... i was just thinking -- if things do n't go our way , this might be the last time i ever get to care for charlotte . anna : do n't -- do n't do that . do n't . you must n't think like that . do n't think like that , okay ? just do n't . valentin : i respectfully disagree . i think that father munro needs to accept the fact that charlotte 's my daughter , and she 'll be coming home with me . [ scene_break ] nelle : you visited sonny ? carly : yeah . um , well , jason uncovered some new information about the night morgan died , so ... michael : hey , mom . carly : oh . hey , sweetheart ! michael : hi . carly : good to see you . michael : good to see you . are you studying ? nelle : sure am . carly : studying what ? nelle : chess . michael challenged me to a match last night . carly : you know that 's not fair . did he tell you that he 's almost impossible to beat ? nelle : oh , he did n't have to tell me . i could already tell michael was a master strategist . carly : okay , he 's almost impossible to beat in any game , so do not let him talk you into playing poker . do n't . nelle : well , i 'm just gon na focus on chess right now . if i have a chance of beating him in a rematch , then i have a lot of catching up to do , so ... carly : i 'm glad he has someone to play with , because morgan ... morgan did n't have patience . um , can you put my purse behind the bar and take care of the , um , things i asked you to take care of ? nelle : yeah . right away . carly : and , uh , take your time because i need to talk to michael about a few things . [ sighs ] michael : so , does this have something to do with dad ? carly : yes . and it 's complicated , you know . everything with your dad is complicated . but first , what 's going on between you and nelle ? michael : what are you talking about ? we -- carly : just that . i 've never seen her like that -- teasing and joking . michael : oh , i mean , come on . she 's your assistant . she takes her job very seriously . she probably does n't want to , like , joke around in front of you , you know ? carly : but she jokes around in front of you . michael : yeah , i guess . i - is that a problem ? carly : no ! no . not at all . i -- i like that you and nelle are becoming friends . [ scene_break ] valentin : ma petite , would you mind coloring at that table over there ? i have some grown - up stuff i have to talk to your new friends about . charlotte : okay . valentin : thank you . anna : i should have realized that you 'd have us followed . valentin : no , you overestimate me . i 'm here for a cup of coffee . actually , i 'm feeling so good , i might have a cruller . christian thoughts , father . christian thoughts . anna : hey . do n't let him get to you . do n't . griffin : that 's easy for you to say . anna : he 's just trying to psych us out . it 's not gon na work . griffin : well , i wish i was as sure about that as you seem to be . anna : well , he might be charlotte 's biological father , but he is a mercenary at best and a criminal at worst . you 're a neurosurgeon and a priest -- for now . griffin : yeah , about that , i , uh ... i postponed my meeting with the bishop . anna : what , about leaving the priesthood ? griffin : yeah . i just -- i want to wait till all this settles . anna : why ? are you hedging your bets ? griffin : you know , i 've asked myself the same question , but no . i , uh -- i want to be a father to charlotte for the rest of my life . anna : so why the delay ? griffin : i just want to be able to tell the bishop the whole story . you know , i need him to know exactly why i 'm leaving the priesthood . anna : are you sure ? 'cause i 'm pretty good at reading people , and i 'm sensing doubt right now . griffin : look , i 'm no lawyer , but i do n't -- i do n't see that i have a legal leg to stand on . i 'm not charlotte 's biological father . i was n't married to claudette . why would the courts give me custody over valentin ? anna : all right . family court is tasked with acting in the interest of the child . you 're a good man . valentin is not . and we have to prove that . hi . valentin : au revoir , ma petite . sois sage pour tes nouveaux amis . d'accord ? [ be good for your new friends , okay ? ] charlotte : oui . valentin : i 'll see you in court . anna : all right , come on . we better go . the last thing we want to do is leave a bad impression on the judge by being late . griffin : absolutely . you ready , sweetheart ? you ready to get out of here ? anna : come on , darling . ready to get up ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what did you mean when you said that you made tom promise that he would never hurt me again ? franco : i mean that i did what needed to be done . elizabeth : you do realize i 'm not thanking you . franco : okay . yeah . i guess . i do n't know . gratitude is not the vibe i 'm getting from you right now . elizabeth : okay , because i 'm under the impression that maybe you broke into tom baker 's brother 's home so that you could confront him ? franco : i found a way inside . i did . elizabeth : that 's breaking and entering . franco : no , no , no . there was no breaking . there was just entering . no law against entering . elizabeth : yeah , it 's called trespassing ! franco : yes . no , you 're right . i did do that . i totally did that . elizabeth : and did you threaten him ? franco : i spoke truth to power . elizabeth : so you did threaten him ? franco : i , um , introduced myself , and he recognized me , and he was aware of my reputation . elizabeth : great . so he thinks you 're a homicidal maniac . franco : he suffers from now - defunct but at one time valid conclusions about me , and i just did n't bother to try and change his mind . and then he adamantly advocated for his continued existence . elizabeth : he begged for his life ? franco : does n't that please you just a little bit ? elizabeth : no , no ! it does n't ! franco : honestly , why does it matter how the loser got the message ? elizabeth : it matters because -- franco : just so long as the loser got the message ! elizabeth : your actions matter ! franco : they do n't seem to matter right now in the good way i intended for them to matter . elizabeth : i -- i know that you think you 're trying to help . i get that . but you need to stop . because if you do n't , tom baker could end up ruining my life all over again . [ scene_break ] [ water running ] tom : fantastic .

[ both chuckle ] tom : so , where do you live ? alexis : [ laughs ] you just ... cut to the chase . i live way too far for ... either of us to ... drive in this condition . tom : well , maybe we do n't have to go that far . alexis : [ breathing heavily ] hey ! hey , how long are you gon na be in there ? i -- uh ... are you okay in there ? what did i do last night ? hey ! are you okay ? i 'm coming in . [ scene_break ] gene : definitely her . though , i 'll tell you , when she left here , she was n't as sober as she is in that picture . jax : you said she left with a stranger ? gene : all i know is that i heard him say there was a motel across the street . [ scene_break ] alexis : what the hell happened ? tom : oh ! alexis : whoa ! hold that thought . tom : well , my night has definitely turned around . [ chuckles ] alexis : how bad was it before ? tom : ah , it 's nothing . some loser from port charles was giving me crap . i set him straight , though . alexis : do you know losers in port charles ? 'cause i know a lot of losers in port charles . i married one . tom : oh , you 're married , are you ? alexis : no . i mean , i was married to a loser . though , does your loser have a name ? tom : oh , yeah . get this -- his name is franco . alexis : [ laughs ] but i -- that 's not his real name , right ? what ? alexis : it is . it is not his real name . his real name is robert . it 's just robert . robert ... franco . franco ... quartermaine . franco ... freak - o. franco ... baldwin . it 's franco baldwin . tom : so , you know him ? alexis : oh ! everybody knows him because he is a reformed serial killer artist .

[ scene_break ] [ nelle goes through carly 's purse , finds a wad of bills , and puts it in her purse . ] bobbie : find something interesting ? [ scene_break ] valentin : ah , you made it . i 'm so glad . anna : yes . i half - expected my car to be tampered with so that we would n't make it here on time . valentin : look on the bright side . once this is over and charlotte 's in my custody , i 'll have no reason to tamper with your car . it 's a little humor . do we have to be so serious all the time ? judge rawles : please be seated . ah . i recognize former police commissioner . ms. devane . anna : judge rawles . hello . judge rawles : and you must be dr. griffin munro ? griffin : yes , your honor . judge rawles : which means you must be mr. valentin cassadine . valentin : i am . judge rawles : let me be clear . while i have decided to keep the setting and the testimony informal in this case , my decision is binding . custody of the minor charlotte cassadine will be resolved today . anna : your honor , we stipulate that mr. valentin cassadine is charlotte cassadine 's biological father . paternity is not the issue here . parental fitness is . we would like to present a letter from charlotte 's mother , claudette beaulieu . and in it , she characterizes mr. cassadine as a very dangerous man -- one that she went to great lengths to protect her daughter from . judge rawles : where is ms. beaulieu now ? anna : well , she was last seen boarding a flight from port charles to calgary , but when the plane landed , she did n't get off . so we have no idea of her whereabouts . [ scene_break ] franco : i 'm sorry you do n't approve of my methods , but i 'm not gon na apologize for wanting to protect you . elizabeth : i do n't know how you 're gon na do that from prison . franco : nobody goes to prison for trespassing . elizabeth : well , correct me if i 'm wrong , but from what you just told me , you could be charged with breaking and entering . franco : who 's gon na believe tom baker ? elizabeth : what if someone does ? franco : no one will . elizabeth : what if somebody had walked in on you ? franco : nobody did . elizabeth : what if somebody was there in the house and you did n't know it ? or they set up nanny cams , because they know a rapist is moving home ? do n't you understand how close you could just -- you could be arrested ! franco : i do understand . but protecting you from tom baker is worth the risk . you are worth whatever risk i take . elizabeth : you just got reinstated after a suspension . do n't you think monica is just waiting for a legit reason to fire you ? franco : i think i 'm growing on her . i do n't think she knows that , but i think i am . elizabeth : franco . franco : what ? elizabeth : what if -- what if tom baker decided to steer clear and live his life , because it was n't worth the risk coming after me until you showed up and now he sees me as a challenge ? franco : i think he got the message . elizabeth : you 're not hearing me . i did n't ask you to do this . i did n't want you to do this . franco : i do n't think i did anything wrong . elizabeth : and what about how you lied to me ? franco : what did i lie to you about ? elizabeth : you said you were planning a special dinner when , really , you were confronting tom ! franco : yeah , but then i told you the truth . elizabeth : but you still lied . and if you lied once , what 's to stop you from lying again ? how can i believe in you or believe in us if i ca n't trust you to be honest with me ? [ scene_break ] man : you want to tell me why the water to this room has been running since 3 : 00 this morning ? alexis : i 'm so sorry . i -- i must have fallen asleep , and i left the shower on . man : yeah , right . you 're gon na have to pay for the damages . i -- alexis : i will . i 'm sorry . please do n't be upset . i just -- i had -- i had a bad night , and i ... [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] anna : we would like to present a letter from ms. beaulieu 's mother , amelia . now , she was taking care of charlotte and keeping her hidden from mr. cassadine per her daughter 's request . these are statements from maxie jones and ms. beaulieu 's former husband , detective nathan west . they both attest to the fact that she had genuine fear of mr. cassadine , a fear that has been more than justified given his actions over this past year . affidavits from pcpd detective dante falconeri and lulu spencer , detailing how they were held captive against their will by mr. cassadine on a private island in greece along with several other people , including lulu 's mother laura , dr. kevin collins , ava jerome , and jason and samantha morgan . now , they all recount the same basic facts , that mr. cassadine held them captive at gunpoint and threatened their lives and ultimately shot and killed nikolas cassadine . these are the medical records of dr. kevin collins , and in it , they document the life - threatening wound that he sustained when mr. cassadine put a bullet in his chest . the greek authorities may well have cleared mr. cassadine of these charges , but these affidavits certainly demonstrate that given his actions over this past year , mr. cassadine should never be around any child , not even his own . judge rawles : thank you . this testimony is indeed troubling . valentin : your honor , may i ? judge rawles : you 'll have your turn , mr. cassadine . [ sighs ] none of this goes to dr. munro 's ability or standing to act as parent or guardian to the minor charlotte cassadine . from what i understand , in addition to being a doctor , you are also a catholic priest . is that true ? griffin : yes , your honor . judge rawles : so , doctor - father munro , do you really wish to raise this child ? [ scene_break ] nelle : ms. spencer , this is a surprise . bobbie : i can see that . nelle : you know , it 's really -- it 's not what it looks like . bobbie : save it . you know , i thought from the get - go that you were too good to be true , and it turns out you are . nelle : wait . carly : nelle -- nelle , what 's going on here ? bobbie : i just caught your trusted assistant stealing from you . michael : what ? bobbie : but do n't take my word for it . let 's ask nelle . or are you going to deny what i just witnessed ? nelle : no . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i know that dinner might not have seemed like a big lie , but when it 's covering up a whole slew of crimes you committed on my behalf ... franco : okay . i can see how that might upset you . elizabeth : okay . good . [ sighs ] all right , well , moving forward , uh ... from here on out , whenever we 're talking about tom baker or anything else , let 's just promise we will always be honest with each other . do you understand that ? franco : yes ... ? elizabeth : and ... ? franco : [ laughs ] well , come on . wait , you mean , like , total honest ? okay . right . okay , here 's the thing . you know , i did n't like oysters the first time i tried them , right ? i did n't like david cronenberg 's movies until i saw a few . so , if i can get used to that stuff ... why not total honesty ? [ chuckles ] elizabeth : are you sure ? franco : yeah . no , i am . elizabeth ... ... i swear to you that i will never lie to you ever again about anything -- for any reason . [ scene_break ] griffin : if i 'm granted custody , i will ... i will leave the priesthood and devote my entire life to making this little girl happy and safe . judge rawles : very well , dr. munro . griffin : well , your honor , is there any questions you have for me ? if so , you can ask me anything and everything -- even about my relationship with claudette . judge rawles : i think i got the picture . is there anything else you 'd like to add ? griffin : just that i believe in my heart that we 're all here today for one reason -- to do what 's right for charlotte . please let me do that . judge rawles : thank you , dr. munro . you 've made a very passionate case . valentin : it 's very passionate . incomplete . may i ? judge rawles : mr. cassadine , it is your turn to speak . valentin : i would like to begin by stating a very simple truth . charlotte is not dr. munro 's daughter , nor is she ms. devane 's . she 's mine . [ scene_break ] nelle : your mother saw me taking this out of your purse . bobbie : see ? she admits it . carly : of course , she does , mom . that 's the cash from last night 's bar receipts . i asked nelle to deposit it in the bank this morning . nelle : hey , your mom 's probably just misunderstanding . bobbie : well , maybe i did . carly : okay . can i talk to you for a minute , please ? bobbie : [ sighs ] michael : hey , i 'm really sorry about that . nelle : it 's a simple mistake . michael : well , that 's a change . nelle : what is ? michael : when you -- when you first came to the house , jax implied that you might be after money . you kind of blew up and you stormed off . my -- my grandmother just accused you of -- wrongly -- of being a thief . it does n't seem to bother you that much . [ scene_break ] carly : mom , i texted nelle last night a bunch of instructions , one of which was to deposit that money . bobbie : i see . carly : okay . for the sake of a peaceful co - existence , can you please go apologize ? i mean , you do n't have to mean it , but you can make it sound good , right ? bobbie : no ! why would i ? and besides , sweet nelle would just say , `` it 's not necessary . `` carly : i do n't know your deal with her , but in addition to saving josslyn 's life , she 's a great assistant . i mean , that woman knows what i need before i do . bobbie : oh , i 'll just bet she does . carly : what is that supposed to mean ? bobbie : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] alexis : how did you know that i was here ? jax : bartender . so , what happened last night after i left ? alexis : nothing . jax : `` nothing . `` obviously , well , that 's not true . i did n't really buy it when you said you wanted to , you know , stay at the bar and get a cab home . alexis : well , you know , that 's what i was thinking when i said it . jax : right . you said you needed to get cell service or something . did n't really buy that , either . i think you just wanted a quiet place to ... you know , get drunk , tie one on . alexis : okay , well , what i wanted is kind of what i want . it 's my business , right ? jax : hmm . i also heard that you met someone at the bar last night . alexis : well , did your surveillance cameras pick that up , too ? jax : no . bartender . yeah , the same guy that was on duty last night was there this morning . he 's a pretty observant guy . alexis : yeah , you know ... whatever some random bartender knows or thinks he knows about what happened is kind of irrelevant . it 's also none of his damn business . so , yeah . i ... i drank a lot last night . but it 's now , and i got everything under control , so ... man : you flooded the whole damn bathroom . it 's a good thing we got your credit card on file 'cause you 're gon na owe this place a lot of money . jax : [ sighs ] oh , boy . alexis : what are you doing ? jax : i 'm gon na call your daughters . alexis : wha -- what ? jax : yeah , i 'm gon na tell them what went down here . alexis : you 're gon na tattle on me with my children ? jax : yes , i am . because i love you , and ... you 're one of best friends , right ? you know that . and this is not you . this is clearly not you . i mean , you 're spiraling out of control , and i think you need some kind of intervention . [ scene_break ] franco : we good ? elizabeth : yeah , we 're good . [ sighs ] the doughnuts . franco : doughnuts ? what 's that ? like a code word for , `` i really want to kiss you right now but there might be people around ? `` elizabeth : no , i forgot that i have to pick up doughnuts for the morning shift . franco : okay , but that could be a really good code word . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] i have to go . franco : doughnuts . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] franco : hey , um , in the spirit of our new pact , check this out -- i 'm gon na turn a lie into the truth . elizabeth : mm . should i even ask ? franco : well , i promised you a special dinner , so let 's have a special dinner . you want to do that tonight ? elizabeth : i really need to go before the morning shift comes after me with torches and pitchforks . franco : yeah , i 've been there . [ scene_break ] alexis : stop it . i do n't need an intervention . and i do n't need your judgment . did i have too much to drink last night ? yeah . did i talk to a stranger ? why should n't i ? did i bring him up here for a one - nighter ? i do n't know . maybe i did , maybe i did n't . jax : you mean you do n't know ? alexis : no ! i did n't ! my point is , it 's none of your business ! jax : well , you 're right . under normal circumstances , this would be none of my business . but , alexis , you know , you of all people , you 've lost control . i mean , you 're hanging out in dive bars so no one in port charles can see you get hammered ? alexis : you know , i think that 's being a little overly dramatic . jax : no , i do n't think so . not if it 's true . which is why i need to call your girls so we can figure out how to help you . alexis : you will not call my girls . i am not incompetent . you will not call my girls to rescue me because my choices , good or bad , are mine . i own them . and i do n't need anyone 's approval or disapproval . i know this looks bad . i know i look bad .

[ scene_break ] edward : one year , firm . ethan : then we want the million tax - free . maya : okay . we are n't agreeing to anything . edward : done . lulu : this is not fair . maya : pay close attention . i do not want to stay married to you . ethan : come on . you walk away from this with half a million tax - free . we get to sleep together the whole time . how could you say no ? tracy : well , we are getting married . ethan : drinks all around . luke : good . tracy : not so fast . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] michael : hey . you probably should n't be here . sonny : no , do n't worry about it . the judge lifted the restriction on the parole . we get to see each other whenever we want . michael : are you serious ? sonny : would i joke about something like that ? it 's right here with signature . michael : [ laughs ] dad , this is unbelievable . man , i missed you . sonny : i missed you too , buddy . michael : i ca n't believe this is real . how did you pull this off ? sonny : i did n't do it . i did n't do it . claire walsh filed the petition . michael : claire -- when she found me in your office , she threatened to turn me in for a parole violation , even though i was there to see jason . why would she make it okay for us to see each other now ? sonny : well , claire reacted to something else going on between her and me . had nothing to do with you . you did everything that you had to do as far as staying out of trouble , following the rules and all of that . claire sees that now . she thinks you 've been punished enough . obviously , the judge feels the same way . otherwise , he would n't have signed on that paper . so basically , you made it happen for both of us . [ michael chuckles ] [ scene_break ] [ jason sighs ] brenda : can you get dante reassigned ? jason : what ? brenda : i do n't want dante to guard me . so can you just , you know , make a phone call or bribe a judge or whatever it is that you do to get him reassigned , please ? jason : i thought you trusted him . brenda : it 's not about whether or not i trust dante . just every time i see that guy 's face , i think of guns and blood and stuff that i do n't want to think about . so if you could just get him reassigned , i would really appreciate that . jason : whoa . is there something else going on here ? is there any more to it ? brenda : no . jason : no ? then why do n't you want dante guarding you all of a sudden ? [ scene_break ] lucky : i 've made a point of staying out of your personal life , and i 'm asking you to do the same with mine . elizabeth : i just do n't want to see you get hurt again . lucky : well , i appreciate your concern , but whatever happens between me and siobhan is my business . and i really think it 's best if we respect the boundaries that we 've set . elizabeth : i 'm sorry if you think i 've overstepped . i hope it works out the way you want . siobhan : still trying to tell me it 's over with the ex ? that woman thinks she owns you . lucky : no , she does n't . she 's just used to being involved in my life . siobhan : elizabeth obviously wants you back . lucky : well , all that matters is what i want . and i think i 've been pretty clear on that . so , unless you 're going to run because you 're scared ... siobhan : i 'm scared of nothing . lucky : really ? prove it .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i wish i 'd been around , you know , to help you , talk to you , whatever you needed with your problems . michael : oh , dad . you had your own problems to worry about . it 's fine . sonny : well , i know it must be difficult , especially now that the truth came out about the car bombing , johnny 's car bomb . wait , wait . the fact that , you know -- i do n't feel good about putting you in a position to have to lie to your sister . michael : well , it all worked out . i 'm glad she forgave you . and the charges were dropped . so it 's all good . sonny : i 'd be in jail right now waiting for trial if it was n't for claire . she found a loophole that got the evidence against me thrown out . michael : things must be pretty serious between you two for her to stick her neck out like that . sonny : ah . she 's amazing , you know . i mean -- but i did what i had to do , break things off with her , 'cause it was costing her too much to be with me . michael : you sure that 's a good idea , breaking up with her ? it never hurts to have a prosecutor willing to do you a favor . [ sonny and michael laugh ] sonny : well , you know what ? she 's done me so many favors already , all she 's getting is flack for it . so that 's why i had to end things . michael : how 'd she take it ? sonny : she was all right . she wants me to be happy . she thinks i can be with brenda . [ scene_break ] brenda : look , every time i look at dante , i have to think about the fact that i shot and killed aleksander . and i do n't want to think about that . i just do n't want to have to think about that . jason : i understand . but jax is the one who got dante assigned , not me . brenda : oh , perfect . then i 'll just call jax and tell him to get dante reassigned . jason : do n't . please , do n't call jax . it 's only going to set carly off . brenda : oh , my god . if carly 's insecure in her marriage , that is not my problem . jax and i are friends . jason : you guys were a lot more than friends , at some point . brenda : yeah . no kidding . what 's your point ? jason : if you do n't want carly flipping out , just do n't provoke her . brenda : i need to be really clear about something . i do n't provoke carly , all right ? i 'm going to ask you for the last time . please get dante reassigned . jason : okay . i 'll look into it . but even if i can , he 's still going to be around . brenda : oh , you 're just full of words of wisdom today , right ? so basically , you 're telling me that i need to just accept this , and that you 're actually not going to do anything about it ? because i 'm sure you are not going to be surprised to know that that 's not okay with me . jason : where are you going ? brenda : i 'm going out . jason : be careful .

[ laughs ] no . they may need a million bucks to keep them warm , but we have our love . maya : okay . what 's the catch ? edward : there 's no catch . at the end of the year , you can either split apart or choose to stay together . it 's entirely up to you . lulu : year 's a very long time . ethan : not with a million dollars in your pocket . maya , think about this . you could pay off your student loans . you could pay for your sister 's tuition . you would n't have to rely on these folks for another dime . maya : i 'm in . edward : excellent . i 'll cut you a check on your one year anniversary . tracy : all right . enough about them . can we get back to my wedding ? lulu : so , this is actually happening ? tracy : yes . all my terms are met . ethan : oh , there are terms ? luke : i would n't exactly call them terms . tracy : we 're going to get married here over the christmas holiday in front of friends and family . maya : well , that does n't sound so bad . edward : [ chuckles ] ] wait for it . tracy : and luke has to sign a pre - nup and stay sober . otherwise , the deal is off . lulu : okay . so when 's the date ? tracy : december 21st , the winter solstice . lulu : it 's mom 's birthday .

[ scene_break ] olivia : i am here out of concern for our son . sonny : is dante all right ? olivia : dante has just gotten to a place where he can finally look you in the eye and see that his father is a decent , caring human being and not this murdering monster that he grew up imagining . sonny , i do n't want to see that go all to hell , okay ? sonny : okay . first of all , it was attempted murder . both charges were dropped . so why are you worried that dante and i are going to have some kind of falling - out ? olivia : he told me that you were going to be allowed to see michael again . sonny : right . olivia : he also told me that he thinks it would be better for michael if you would just stay away . sonny : he told me the same thing . olivia : well , i bet you got no intention of listening to him , do you ? sonny : we 're talking about my son . olivia : well , dante is your son , too , okay ? and he has got every reason to be concerned . sonny , i am sorry to say this to you , but how many times is michael going to have to pay for your poor choices ? or for standing in the wrong place at the wrong time when your enemies started shooting , okay ? you know the dangers . dante is just trying to keep michael from any more suffering . sonny : i understand where dante 's coming from , but i can not turn my back on my son . olivia : i 'm not asking you to turn your back . sonny : then what are you asking me to do ? olivia : i 'm asking you to use your head , okay ? i mean , michael , if he gets involved in anything illegal , if his life gets put in jeopardy -- god forbid , sonny , anything actually ever happened to that kid , dante would never forgive you . and he 'd never forgive himself . that would be it , the end of your relationship together . game over . sonny : that 's the last thing i want . olivia : i know . but the road to hell is paved with good intentions , sonny , okay ? so i 'm just saying be smart . okay ? i do n't want to see you lose both your sons . what is this ? when did you start reading fashion magazines ?

[ laughs ] i remember that . i remember the beautiful look of panic that came across his face when he saw the closet . [ scene_break ] olivia : so , does my cousin connie know that you prefer the competition ? of course , you always did , even back in high school . you were never satisfied with the one you were with . always looking for something better . sonny : not better . just a bigger challenge . that 's kind of what i live for , you know . but even back then , it seems like i could never make a relationship work from there to today . olivia : wait . wait , sonny . do n't do that . now , you made it work with carly pretty good for a while . sonny : yeah . we had kids , and we used to go back and forth 'cause of the kids , probably a little bit too much than we should have . olivia : come on . you loved carly . sonny : loved her very much . i loved a lot of women . brenda was my first -- if you do n't count high school . [ both laugh ] olivia : we were too young to know what love really was , you know . sonny : brenda was , you know , not much older than that , and i knew i wanted to spend the rest of my life with her . olivia : so what happened ? sonny : well , you know , we 'd fight , make up , fight , make up . at times , it was ugly . but when it was good , it was good . [ scene_break ] jason : why do you have to make things harder than they have to be ? carly : i just think everything will be easier if brenda were gone . jason : brenda 's not going anywhere right now . and the last thing i need is for her to be more flipped out than she already is . carly : i ca n't stand that you bend over backwards to help that little twit when she 's lying to your face . jason : lying about what ? carly : brenda and dante had an affair three years ago . that 's right . sonny 's great love was banging his firstborn .

[ scene_break ] steve : get him into a room . when he 's settled , i need a 12-lead ekg , cardiac enzymes , and a cbc . page dr. quartermaine . tracy : do n't bother . robin : what happened ? steve : chest pains . i want to run some tests . tracy : let me save you the time , money , and effort . he was not having a heart attack . luke : you 're not qualified to make [ groaning ] that call . tracy : oh , please ! do you think that by now , i do n't know when you 're faking ? lulu : tell me she 's wrong . what is the matter with you ? ! do you even think ? ! first dante , then aiden , now you ? ! tracy : he was n't doing it to get attention . lulu : oh , do n't defend him ! tracy : he was trying to create a diversion . robin : for whom ? tracy : ah ! right on cue . steve : what 'd you do ? maggie : waiting was getting old , so i ran the test myself . robin : is she kidding ? maggie : aiden is suffering from itp -- idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura . luke : what is that ? robin : it 's , uh -- it 's a blood condition . it means that aiden has unusually low blood platelets . steve : that would explain the bruising . lulu : wait . i 'm sorry . is this serious ? maggie : if left untreated , your nephew could have bled to death internally . [ scene_break ] alexis : helena -- what is she doing there ? that 's it . no more . you take it . i 'm not asking . ethan : [ laughs ] all right . you know ... i could look after the place for you . alexis : why would you want to ? ethan : i do n't know . something about that island is tugging at me . alexis : you 're reminding me of somebody right now . [ gasps ] your father . ethan : [ laughs ] maybe that 's the explanation . it 's just in my dna . [ scene_break ] maggie : first and foremost , aiden will need a transfusion , then he 'll go on meds . robin : the blood bank is usually low this time of year , so we 'll need you to donate . maggie : yeah . we 're looking for a - negative or o - negative . luke : i 'm o - negative . lulu : uh , well , the same type is better , and , uh , aiden and i are both a - negative , so just use mine . maggie : it 'd be helpful to collect as much as we can . lulu : right , but i 'm just saying that there 's no question that you can use mine . maggie : uh , am i missing something ? why would n't we be able to use his ? luke : because my blood alcohol level might be through the roof . that 's what you 're worried about , is n't it , lulu ? [ scene_break ] dante : you want to tell me why we 're all of a sudden talking about my mother ? johnny : she was on that party boat , was n't she ? dante : yeah . johnny : a lot of stuff went down that night . you 'd think she 'd be pretty freaked out . dante : um , why do n't -- why do n't i worry about my mother and you -- you just worry about yourself ? johnny : am i in some sort of trouble here ? dante : well , my shooting is an ongoing investigation , and you 're -- you 're right at the top of the suspect list . johnny : hmm . wow . abby 's friends , dr. niles , now your own shooting . you 're spreading yourself sort of thin , do n't you think , detective ? it 's not very conducive to your recovery . dante : i 'm feeling stronger than ever . but thank you for your concern . johnny : anytime .

[ cell phone rings ] dr. obrecht : britta , how dare you ignore my call ? need i remind you that you 're late for work ? report to my office immediately . it 's an emergency . ignore this message , and i assure you , you will regret it . agent sloane : well , you 've been busy , commissioner . there have been several arrests here in the last 48 hours . anna : yeah . is the justice department interested in any one in particular ? agent sloane : michael sonny corinthos jr . they 're dancing on their desks in washington , anticipating the downfall of the teflon don . it 's kind of ironic . he 's walked away from a laundry list of rico charges , and then finally going to prison over what amounts to a domestic dispute gone wrong . anna : yeah , it 's considerably more complex than that . agent sloane : apparently . and you pulled in one of sonny 's associates , huh ? duke lavery ? does this mean that you 're no longer married to the mob ? shawn : you want me to get that recording to michael ? sonny : as soon as you can . shawn : it 's a rough thing to hear , man . sonny : well , michael wants to clear aj 's name . that recording is the only way to do it . shawn : look , if he hands it over to the cops , you wo n't have many options . sonny : i do n't got any options now , shawn . my son has written me off , and i knew once the truth came out that he -- i may never see him again , but he walked in here . he wanted the recording , and that 's the least i can do . shawn : i hear you . look , tj is n't my son , but i 'd do the same for him . tj : i saw the story on the news about you and shawn and heather webber . that really happened ? jordan : well , you know reporters -- they love to exaggerate . i 'm fine . tj : they said that heather had a gun -- that she was working with franco -- that they both went crazy . ma , they could have killed you . jordan : i know , but the truth is i spent most of the night locked in a room with shawn , heather , and carly jacks , and , yes , franco was acting all crazy and evil , but you know what ? the cops came in time , and everybody 's fine . come here . tj : god , mom . monica : well , i have always considered you a quartermaine , but i know -- i know aj would be so proud . michael : and if it 's okay with you , grandmother , i 'd like to move in here . monica : okay . oh , i would absolutely love it . of course . and i know you -- you love that blue room , you know , on the west wing -- the one that looks over the lake . tracy : ashton 's in that room . monica : ashton can move . ned : michael . i know it 's been rough lately , but if there is a silver lining , this is it . welcome to the family . monica : yes . oh , yes . yes , welcome , welcome . you are the best gift ever because it is , in fact , aj 's birthday . i just wish he could be here . michael : look , i - i give you my word i will live up to his name . and i 'll do right by my father , and i will get this company back on top of its game ... since , uh , tracy has been trying to destroy it . sonny : giving michael that recording is not gon na bring him back . i do n't think anything will . but after the hell that i put him through , if it 's gon na give my son peace of mind ... that 's what i 'm gon na do . shawn : well , there 's a collateral benefit . once the cops get the recording , ava 's going down . ava : kiki . your little sister has been kidnapped . why on earth are you attacking me ? kiki : you know , i have n't wanted to bring this up because i was worried about you , but i think you 're doing better now , and if you want to talk about franco , you should n't be worried about him because the way he has treated me , i think that he will look out for that baby . ava : then you 're lying to yourself . franco is a sociopath . and if he was kind and caring to you at all , it 's because it gave him amusement . i 'm sure he enjoyed getting you to care about him , knowing how much i despise him , and now that you 've served your purpose , he 's on to the next great thing -- helping a lunatic kidnap my baby . kiki : i do n't want to talk about franco . ava : okay . then let 's talk about the search for your sister . kiki : there 's nothing we can do about the baby . and i agree that this is a horrible situation , but there is something else that i really need to get off my chest . ava : okay . that 's fine , sweetie . what is it ? kiki : you killed connie falconeri . [ knock on door ] dr. obrecht : yes ? patrick : is this a bad time ? dr. obrecht : no . come in . patrick : so , the board has made a decision on my appeal ? dr. obrecht : what is she doing here ? patrick : she 's here for support . dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] you americans with your need for support . i 'll allow it , as it 's merely a formality . the board has made its decision . patrick : okay . what is it ? dr. obrecht : the board of directors of general hospital gave your appeal careful consideration . there were several crucial factors , including your admission that you considered murdering rafe kovich while you were performing surgery . it was an egregious breach of medical ethics . despite your lapse in judgment , the board has voted to reinstate you . you start tomorrow . sam : ahh ! yes ! i knew it ! congratulations . dr. obrecht : report to my office immediately . it 's an emergency . ignore this message , and i assure you , you will regret it . nikolas : hey , i thought you went to work . britt : i 'm just about to leave . nikolas : you okay ? britt : my mother 's on the warpath . nikolas : what 's new ? you still thinking about agent sloane ? britt : no . if he wants to look into my father 's disappearance and go after anna , he 'll have to do it without me . anna : well , see , now , you 're misinformed . duke lavery and i are n't married . agent sloane : but you are living together . anna : no . we were . i arrested mr. lavery . i believe that he 's being arraigned today , all , you know , by the book . agent sloane : hmm . well , this is your department , commissioner . i 'd expect nothing less . anna : you have to forgive me , agent sloane , but these are all local matters of concern to myself and the district attorney . why are you so interested in my business ? kiki : you murdered a woman -- a human being with a heart and soul and family that loved her , and you flat - out lied about it . you told me and morgan that the reason sonny wanted you dead was because you knew that he killed aj . that was n't the reason , was it ? it was because you murdered the woman that he loved . ava : i do n't know where you 're getting your information , but it is simply not true . kiki : actually , sonny told morgan . ava : sonny would say anything to deflect blame from himself . kiki : you are lying to me , because sonny has a recording , and morgan heard it . ava : what ? kiki : yeah , it 's on record -- you telling aj how you got away with connie 's murder . sonny : getting ava locked up is the next best thing to eliminating her . at least she wo n't get her hands on the baby -- that 's if the baby is ever found . shawn : look , i 'll get that recording to michael , okay ? and i 'll keep looking for the child . damn , sonny . look , i should have been doing more . i have n't been on my game . sonny : you seem a little on edge . shawn : you 're damn straight . jordan : i 'm fine , tj . you do n't need to worry . tj : i guess no matter how much you screw up in your life , you 're still my mom . jordan : and i love you , too . [ both chuckle ] oh , there 's that smile . tj : all right , ma , i should hit the books . jordan : actually , um , could you stick around for a bit ? um , shawn 's actually meeting me here . we -- we have something to discuss with you . sonny : the cops do n't have anything on you . i kept you out of it . shawn : look , i appreciate it , man , but that 's not what 's on my mind . it 's tj you know , jordan and i have to have a conversation with him later on today , and , damn , man , it 's gon na hit him hard , you know ? and i hate having to do that to that kid . sonny : i know the feeling . michael : tracy , consider yourself warned . your days of messing with elq are over . tracy : oh , and here i thought as a newly minted quartermaine , you 'd want to give your dear great - auntie a hug . michael : um , no , not after what you 've done . tracy : i am not the one embroiled in a front - page scandal with both my parents in jail . michael : those are n't my parents anymore . and you 've done more damage to this company with your financial scheming than anything in my old life . you gave jerry jacks 15.5 % of elq . tracy : i did it to save luke . michael : yeah , and look what you got instead . ned : if you 're referring to my father , i could n't agree more . larry : oh , have i just been insulted by my own progeny ? michael : you put this company at risk . you put this family at risk for what ? luke had his flaws , but this drunk is no luke spencer . michael : tracy traded shares of elq for that lush . tracy : because i love luke . michael : who had his hands all over kiki . you know , you have some taste in men , there . larry : do n't you snipe at me , you young puppy . yes , i was abducted by jerry jacks . however , here i am , reunited with my son , whom , i have noticed , is rather reluctant to jump to my defense . come on , boy ! jump in ! michael : think about it . jerry snatches luke -- or at least that 's what we 're supposed to believe -- leverages 15.5 % of elq . then he manages to install larry here in the family home where he can listen and learn . you know , how do we know you 're not working with jerry , and this is n't just another run at elq ? larry : i 've endured countless indignities during this ordeal , but this is beyond the pale . ned : do n't worry , michael . i would never let him get his gout - ridden toe inside the door of elq . not that he 's interested . yeah , he 's much more interested in sitting around , consuming all the liquor on the premises . michael : look , i know he 's your father , ned , but i took sonny at his word , and look what he did . your title is fake , old man . larry : `` old `` ? michael : you 're not a lord . and i bet if we take a closer look , we 're gon na find out a lot more about you that 's fake . kiki : who are you ? huh ? how could you shoot a defenseless woman ? ava : it was wrong . and i 'm not trying to make excuses , but it was n't planned . i just reacted in the moment . kiki , julian and i -- we 'd been working so hard to get a foothold in port charles . we were making such careful plans , and they 'd started to fall apart . it had just come out that you were n't really a quartermaine . kiki : oh , which you were also lying about . ava : kiki , i did n't have any choice . it was my responsibility to get controlling interest in elq . i was under so much pressure . my -- i thought my head was going to explode . and then i - i walked in on connie . i realized that she figured out that derek wells was actually julian jerome . i panicked . she picked up the phone to call sonny . the gun was already there . aj had dropped it . i did n't even have time to think . i just -- i shot her . and i got the hell out of there . now , i am not trying to make excuses . i know it was wrong . kiki : okay , you know it was wrong . `` it was wrong . `` that 's all you have ? you did n't want anyone to find out who your crappy brother was , so you put a bullet in an unarmed woman ? ava : kiki , please . kiki : no , you -- you let her -- you let her lie there on the ground . she bled to death . not only did you murder someone , but you let aj , michael 's father , take the blame for it . diane : hello , sonny . sonny : how 's max ? diane : he 's fine . he 's recuperating nicely at general hospital . milo and his girlfriend , nurse johnson , are waiting on him hand and foot . sonny : i 'm glad he 's gon na be okay . diane : mm - hmm . but i do n't have a lot of time , so i 'd like to focus on your case , specifically your apparent intention to secure your own conviction before you 've even seen the inside of a courtroom . sonny : do n't preach to me right now , diane , please . diane : well , you have retained my services ... sonny : yes . diane : ... once again , and so that entitles you to my best efforts on your behalf . that includes me lecturing you on not taking actions that could have disastrous consequences . sonny : it 's a little too late for that , diane . diane : i 'm not speaking about the alleged shooting of aj quartermaine , although , i got to admit , i did think you 'd have more sense . sonny : well , sorry to disappoint you . diane : be that as it may , carly says that there is a recording of ava jerome confessing to connie falconeri 's killing and that you intend to give this recording to michael . please tell me that it is not yet in michael 's hands . larry : you cheeky peasant . hurling accusations at me ? i 'll teach you some manners . ned : father ! hey ! shawn : get your hands off him ! ned : what are you doing ? larry : who the blazes is that ? michael : it 's sonny 's enforcer . i do n't need your protection , shawn , okay ? what are you even doing here ? shawn : i got something for you . it 's from your father . he promised it to you . he kept his word , michael . spencer : my palate demands chocolate ! tell the staff i 'm allowed to have chocolate for a snack . nikolas : but you 're not allowed to have chocolate for a snack . spencer : i need cheering up . uncle sonny 's in the slammer , and cameron rubbed my nose in it . he is so full of himself that i 'm sure he was lying , but it 's true . uncle sonny 's in jail ! nikolas : i 'm sorry you had to find out that way , but cameron was telling the truth , and you know how important that is , right ? spencer : [ sighs ] here we go . must we turn this into a lecture about honesty ? nikolas : that 's not my intention . i was actually trying to compliment you . spencer : you were ? nikolas : yes . lucas filled me in about what you did at carly 's wedding . he said that franco knew you were hiding in josslyn 's room and chose to keep your secret . he said that you wanted to be honest because i asked you to work on telling the truth . i have never been more proud of you . so , on second thought , you deserve some candy . spencer : no , father , i do n't . sam : [ chuckles ] dr. obrecht : take your display of affection elsewhere . i had no idea you two were so close . you do realize that is was ms . morgan who got you into this predicament ? if you ever entertain dark thoughts about a patient again , i suggest you not confess them to her . patrick : sam was only trying to defend me . sam : hey , hey . leave it . okay ? thank you so much , dr. obrecht . dr. obrecht : britta , if you 're not in my office in one minute , i 'll -- britt : you 'll what , mother ? what is the problem ? dr. obrecht : you are the problem . [ slaps britt ] anna : so , why are you involving yourself in these local incidents ? agent sloane : well , we 've already established that the fall of sonny corinthos has far - reaching implications . there 's also a kidnapped infant who may have been taken across state lines or maybe even out of the country . both are federal concerns . anna : and yet you still have n't asked me anything germane to either of the cases . agent sloane : i 'm here on another matter . anna : anything i can help you with ? whatever you need from me or my department , it 's yours . agent sloane : i do n't need anything from you at this juncture , commissioner . when i 'm ready to go public with this matter , you 'll definitely be the first to know . anna : okay , well , i appreciate that . agent sloane : it 's good seeing you , anna . good luck finding that kidnapped child . britt : what the hell was that ? why did you just hit me ? dr. obrecht : did you think i would n't find out about your little chat with agent sloane ? that you refused to cooperate with him in his investigation of anna devane after that zicke murdered my cesar ? britt : oh , for god 's sake , mother . dr. obrecht : he is your father , and he 's disappeared ! britt : my so - called father that never gave a damn about me ? why should i care what happened to him ? dr. obrecht : because i care . britt : well , then knock yourself out . help agent what 's - his - name on his witch hunt for anna for all the good it will do . dr. obrecht : i do not have legal standing . i may be your father 's soul mate , but i am not next of kin . i can not give official permission to agent sloane to proceed , but you can , and you will . britt : i 'm sorry . i 've already made it very clear i want no part of this . dr. obrecht : then i 'll be forced to tell nikolas that you were working in tandem with spencer when he disappeared last summer . nikolas : you do n't want candy ? spencer : of course i want it . i ... do n't deserve it . nikolas : [ sighs ] look , you 've learned your lesson . you 're doing all you can to be honest . it 's time for a reward . it 's called positive reinforcement . spencer : do n't you get it ? i have -- i do n't have the right to a reward . nikolas : why not ? spencer : because franco was n't the only one who knew where i was . tj : what do you and shawn need to talk to me about ? i mean , my midterm grades were terrific -- except for psych , 'cause some joker told me it was a gut . but i promise i 'll double down on my study duties . jordan : it 's not about school . tj : so what 's it about ? jordan : you know , i do n't want to get into it until shawn gets here , but we do need to talk to you together . tj : well , it sounds serious . jordan : yeah . you know , he should be here by now , but ... diane : the police botched connie 's murder investigation , sonny . they 're gon na want a way to save face . now , i can use this recording as leverage . we give the cops conclusive evidence against ava jerome in exchange for leniency toward you . sonny : i promised michael that i would help him clear aj 's name . that 's what i have to do , diane . diane : we 're gon na clear aj 's name , sonny . we 're just gon na control the process so that it favors you . now , it 's my understanding that this recording continues to a point where the perpetrator shoots aj , and if carly is to be believed , the tape clearly conveys the duress the perpetrator must have been under . sonny : i promised michael the recording , and it 's his , diane . that 's enough . i do n't want to talk about it anymore . diane : sonny , listen to me . if michael walks that recording into the pcpd , it 's over . you 've lost everything . the cops are gon na put you away for the rest of your life . at least let me try to make the best deal possible . sonny : no deals ! i do n't -- look , i 'm not gon na use the recording to save my ass ! i do n't care what it costs me ! [ gunshot ] monica : [ gasps ] oh , my god . michael : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . you should n't have heard that . monica : god , that should n't have happened . michael : god , i did n't know it was gon na hurt this much . [ sighs ] i knew what had happened , but to hear it ... i just heard that son of a bitch kill my father . monica : i know . i know . i know . but -- but at least the good thing is we know now that sonny is going to pay for this . michael : we heard something else , too . ava said that she killed connie . that means aj was innocent . monica : oh , my god . oh , my god , that 's right . he is finally free of that burden . oh . kiki : aj did n't kill connie . you did . but that did n't stop you from framing him . you pinned all of the evidence against him . you even got his fingerprints on the gun , and you made sure that that gun was found , did n't you ? you even testified against him when you were the one who killed connie , and you did n't even lose an ounce of sleep over it . ava : now , that 's not true . i felt terrible for that poor man . kiki : oh , not enough to come forward , though , right ? ava : well , i would have , but he was acquitted . it all worked out . kiki : oh , yeah , it all worked out ... for everyone except aj . aj led the rest of his life thinking that he murdered connie . he was haunted by her death . he could n't -- he could n't sleep . he could n't work . he started drinking again . everywhere he went , people would whisper about him . even his own family thought that he got away with murder . michael even had his doubts , but at least michael knows the truth now . ava : what -- what ? m - michael knows all of this ? kiki : oh , yeah . he knows . patrick : ohh . sam : are you gon na celebrate with emma ? patrick : she 's on a playdate . sam : she is ? patrick : yes . sam : okay , well , maybe you can use your last free afternoon to bark up larry ashton 's tree , figure out if he had anything to do with your accident . patrick : that sounds like a plan . hey , you , uh -- you said you had some more ideas you wanted to explore , but spencer interrupted us . what were they ? sam : oh , you 'll see . ava : michael knows i killed connie ? how ? did you tell him ? kiki : no . sonny must have . ava : does michael have a copy of the recording ? kiki : i do n't know . ava : what do you mean you do n't know ? kiki : i do n't know . when i told michael that i knew what happened between sonny and aj , and i did n't tell him about it , he broke up with me . actually , he did worse than that . um , he completely ended us . ava : you know , sonny and i were both worried about what this would do to our kids . kiki : [ sighs ] ava : i 'm so sorry . kiki : it 's a little late for that . and now you 're going to prison . because sonny got arrested , he has nothing to lose now . he 's going to give you up to the cops , and michael is going to want everyone to know that aj is innocent . ava : well , i do n't much care about me . i care about your sister . has there been any news ? kiki : not that i know of . ava : well , can i ask you ... i know that you 're angry with me , but your little sister 's innocent . would you please go find out if there 's been any word about her ? kiki : i 'll do it for my sister but not for you . anna : so , what about the amber alert ? were there any calls ? no , no , i know it 's a long shot . yeah , thanks , nathan . kiki : commissioner ? anna : yeah ? kiki : i 'm sorry . do you have any word on my baby sister ? anna : we do n't . we have every resource out in the search , but nothing so far . we 're concentrating all of our efforts -- michael : commissioner . anna : yes ? hi , michael . michael : okay . kiki : hi . how are you ? michael : i do n't have anything to say to you . okay , i 'm here to give the commissioner the evidence she needs to exonerate my father and arrest your mother . diane : that 's all very noble , sonny , and i understand your desire for self- sacrifice as penance . at the very least , it 's a gesture for michael . sonny : it 's all i have left to do for my son , diane . diane : i 'm sure that michael hates the sight of you , but i was also there in the courtroom when he confessed to killing claudia , sent himself to pentonville to exonerate you . sonny : why are you dredging this up ? diane : because that 's how much michael loves you , sonny . anger does not negate love . a life sentence is a long , long time . that 's years for michael 's anger to cool . that 's also years for michael to regret any part he played in sending you to prison . sonny : so what am i supposed to do , diane ? am i supposed to bargain my way out of this for michael 's sake ? diane : yes , exactly ! sonny : you 're brilliant . i mean , seriously , you 're the best i 've ever seen . diane : i know . i 'm also right , damn it . sonny : not about this . listen to me . i already gave the recording to michael . end of story . diane : okay . [ inhales , exhales deeply ] well , i guess i should be getting to carly 's arraignment . they 'll be coming for you shortly . alexis : good luck with the judge . diane : i 'll need it . sonny : where 's duke ? i thought his arraignment would be over by now . alexis : it is . sonny : where is he ? what happened ? nikolas : someone else knew that you were hiding out at carly 's ? who ? spencer : he 's taking you back . britt : but if he ever found out that you ran away to try and make us get closer , and i was in on it , that 'd be the end of us ... for good . spencer : the other person that knew was josslyn . nikolas : of course josslyn knew . who else are you referring to ? spencer : nobody . nikolas : nobody ? i still ca n't believe that franco did n't pick up the phone and let me know you were all right . i was worried out of my mind about you . so was britt . hey , what franco did was reprehensible . i need to know if there 's someone else out there cruel enough to keep you from me . dr. obrecht : you managed to persuade nikolas to take you back . you 're living with him again -- happy little family with spencer . but if nikolas were to find out that you used his precious son to slither your way back into his heart ... your joyful life will come crashing around you in a pile of broken dreams . britt : you were so supportive when i wanted nikolas back . you were the one who suggested i use spencer as a way to get his father . dr. obrecht : yes . i helped you achieve your dreams , and i expect , in time , that you would help me achieve mine . it 's payback time . britt : you would really take everything away from me ? dr. obrecht : to get justice for your father , i would do anything . you will give agent sloane your full cooperation ... or you will lose nikolas . monica : ava jerome would have let aj go to prison . i mean , when he finally remembered that he did n't kill connie , he confronted ava , and then he lost his life . aj died trying to clear his name . ned : come on , monica . let 's go tell aj that he 's been exonerated and wish him happy birthday . come on . monica : okay . larry : [ sighs ] [ ice cubes clinking ] tracy : oh , by all means , help yourself . larry : purely medicinal , tracy . anything to help me get along with your family . tracy : i can not believe that jerry jacks sent you instead of luke . and now he refuses to communicate with me . i have n't heard from him in days . larry : ah , i assume he 's waiting for you to , uh , scare up a few more shares . in the meantime , your nephew 's installed himself in the house . that 's gon na make it nigh on impossible for you to make a move on elq , is n't it ? tracy : yeah , but luke 's life depends on it . i ca n't stand not knowing what 's happened to him . larry : you think that , uh , jacks has reached out to luke 's daughter ? what 's her name ? lola ? tracy : lulu , and for once , you have a good idea . i 'm gon na go check on her . dr. obrecht : i 'm so glad i was able to catch you before you left . my daughter has something she wants to say to you . britt : [ sighs ] as my father 's only known next of kin , i 've decided to cooperate in bringing anna devane to justice for his murder . anna : [ sighs ] michael : are you satisfied ? anna : yep . michael : you have more than enough evidence to arrest ava and throw her in prison with sonny . anna : well , it 's certainly enough to arrest her . michael : [ inhales deeply ] okay . it 's time to do this ... for my father . alexis : i did everything i possibly could to get duke to roll over on you , but your loyal associate refused . sonny : where is he ? alexis : i 'll tell you where he is . the judge refused bail , and he 's been transferred to pentonville where he 'll stay until his trial , and i can only assume the same fate awaits your other loyal partner in crime , carly . sonny : screw that . they ai n't sending her to pentonville . alexis : by helping you cover up what you did to aj , she has made herself an accessory to murder . listen to me , sonny . you are going down , and you are taking everybody with you . anna : ava jerome , i 'm here on police business . shawn : uh , have a seat , please . tj : you two are really intense . uh , what 's this about ? shawn : um ... it 's about your father . nikolas : why are you crying ? spencer : i do n't care what happened to franco or what happened at josslyn 's . uncle sonny 's in jail . nikolas : i know . but i 'm afraid that that 's probably where he belongs , spencer . spencer : he 's innocent until he 's proven guilty . nikolas : that 's true , but there 's a lot of evidence against him . he could be in jail for a very long time . spencer : well , there 's one good thing about uncle sonny being behind bars . luke spencer ca n't hurt him . larry : jerry , it 's me . we have a problem .

[ scene_break ] man : you 've got the wrong guy , officer . dante : it 's detective . man : i only ran because i thought you were gon na mug me . dante : take him down to holding , please . man : yeah . i 'm innocent . this is brutality . lady detective deliberately tripped me . i may have chipped a tooth . dante : [ sighs ] valerie : he may be wrong about me being a detective , but he 's right about me tripping him on purpose . dante : that was a nice move . too bad it could , uh , cost me my badge .

[ scene_break ] sam : i called jason this morning . he has n't called me back . patrick : well , maybe he does n't want to talk to anybody . maybe he 's trying to process all the information . sam : radio silence from jason means that he 's on the road . i know how he thinks . patrick : no , sam , you used to know how he thinks . but we 're not dealing with the same person here , because he does n't have the same memory of what he used to be . sam : and no conscious memory , but jason still reacts the same . i saw it when he rescued sonny and tj . the higher the pressure , the more dangerous the situation , the more he falls back on his instincts . i know this . i know he 's going to look for answers . he 'll probably start with the wsb to see if he can talk to someone over there , or robin , because she was his doctor , or helena , but two of those three situations are very dangerous , and he 's going to need me . patrick : no , sam , you want him to need you , which is totally different . you 're not going there for him . you 're going there for yourself . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's not like jason to just take off without letting me know where he is . michael : well , he 's going through a lot . he has a lot of pressure on him right now . he probably needs some -- some time and some space , but he 'll figure everything out . but i 'm sure everything 's fine . elizabeth : okay . still , i 'm gon na talk to monica . maybe he said something to her . michael : all right . look , i 'm sorry i could n't be more help , but , uh ... elizabeth : it 's okay . michael : sabrina and i are actually going to our baby 's first sonogram in a couple hours . but i have to run an errand first , so i 'll pick you up ? sabrina : no , you -- you go ahead . i will -- i 'll meet you at the hospital . michael : okay . sabrina : yeah . and , you know , just text me if you 're running late . and you know what ? it 's okay if you do n't make it to this appointment . not a big deal . michael : oh , i 'm gon na be there no matter what . you kidding me ? i can not wait to see our baby . all right . bye . elizabeth : bye . sabrina : uh , i can have alice find monica . elizabeth : no , that 's okay . michael 's right . jason just needs his space . sabrina : and you 're afraid that when he comes home , he wo n't be coming back to you . [ scene_break ] dante : i told you to stay in the car , right ? valerie : okay , yes . you did say that . but he was getting away . i had to do something . dante : yeah , well , you were resourceful . and fast , i might add . and you kind of broke every rule in the book . valerie : maybe i got a little carried away . dante : well , you 're gon na be a hell of a cop . but you 're not one yet , so for that reason , i 'm gon na leave your name out of the report for your sake and my sake , and we 're gon na forget it ever happened , okay ? valerie : okay . if you want to leave my name out of the report , that 's fine . but i 'm never gon na forget this night . i felt like a real cop . except for the part where i fell asleep on your shoulder . talk about a rookie move . dante : yeah , do n't worry about it . nathan 's done it before . valerie : no way . [ chuckles ] dante : i 'm gon na file a report and get cleaned up . when do you , uh , start the academy ? valerie : monday morning . dante : well , i 'd wish you good luck , but i do n't think you 're gon na need it . [ cell phone keys clicking ] [ scene_break ] lulu : i should have known better than to call dante , but olivia was so convincing . she made it sound reasonable , so i called him . and he picked up , he said that he could n't talk . fine , i 'm used to that . and then i left the metro court , and as i 'm walking down the street , what did i see ? an unmarked police car with dante and valerie in it . valerie 's head was on his shoulder . it looked so romantic , it took everything i had not to open the car door and rip her off of my husband . maxie : okay , is it possible that there 's some reasonable explanation ? lulu : like what ? maxie : i do n't want you to jump to any conclusions . lulu : i saw it with my own eyes . i obviously ca n't ask dante since i do n't believe a word that comes out of his mouth . maxie : true . but you can read . lulu : what ? maxie : we could check out dante 's e - mails . [ scene_break ] anna : i 'm sorry , dr. maddox , but i 'm -- i 'm not in treatment with you , right ? so , you know , whatever medications i choose to take are none of your business . andré : true , but self - medicating is a dangerous way to dull your pain . anna : [ chuckling ] oh , god ! it 's -- it 's an herbal supplement . andré : but how long until you 're tempted to take something stronger -- maybe a prescription from a more sympathetic doctor ? anna : yeah , i - i 'm hardly a raging addict , am i ? andré : you are struggling with emotional and overwhelming guilt , and it 's sent you into a state of turmoil . anna : i thank you not to speculate . andré : whatever 's troubling you will continue to do so until you decide to address the true cause . [ scene_break ] lulu : what are you doing ? maxie : just taking a quick , sneaky peek at dante 's e - mails . lulu : and how are you doing that ? [ keys clacking ] maxie : really ? spinelli , of course . last time i went to visit georgie , he put some sort of program thing on my computer . it 's a really good shortcut . lulu : you mean a hack ? maxie : the point is , i can get into dante 's e - mails as easy as -- [ computer beeps ] maxie : oh , look ! i 'm done . lulu : well , do you see any recent e - mails from valerie ? maxie : let 's see . oh . he got one from her a few minutes ago . and the title ... is `` thanks for last night . `` lulu : uh , `` dante , i ca n't thank you enough for last night . maybe it surprised you . it surprised me , too , how great it felt , how natural . `` [ scoffs ] `` if i had any doubts about what i 'm doing , [ voice breaking ] i do n't anymore , thanks to you . i ca n't wait to do it again . valerie . `` [ scene_break ] dante : [ exhales ] [ keys clacking ] michael : hey , dante , um , are you busy ? dante : uh , why ? what 's going on ? michael : i need to talk to you about a case . dante : yes , franco is in custody for your mother 's hit - and - run . and , no , you ca n't see him . michael : well , i was not expecting that . dante : it 's an ongoing investigation , man . i ca n't discuss it right now . michael : okay , well , i 'm glad franco 's behind bars , but i 'm here to talk to you about nikolas cassadine . you , uh , may be able to reinstate those corporate - espionage charges very soon . dante : really ? why 's that ? michael : jason left me a message empowering me to use his shares of elq against nikolas . so i should be able to force nikolas out of elq , which will leave him open to prosecution . dante : hey , congratulations , man . i know how much that company means to you . michael : thank you . yeah , having jason back has really turned things around . [ scene_break ] sabrina : i 've been there , remember ? i know what it 's like to love someone and then have to stand aside when their old love returns . elizabeth : except our situations are completely different . jason does n't remember his life with sam , and he has spent the past year building a life with me . sabrina : but then why would he just leave and not tell you ? elizabeth : i do n't know ! maybe because people are coming at him from all sides , wanting him to remember . and i 'm sure michael 's right . he just needed to get some closure and find some space , and once he does that , he 's gon na come home to me , and we can start a life together . sabrina : i - i hope that it all turns out the way that you want . elizabeth : yeah . well , i 'm gon na do more than hope . i 'm gon na make sure of it .

[ scene_break ] jason : you know , the moment [ grunts ] from which i woke up as jake , i 've been tripping all over jason morgan . hearing how much he meant to people , how they were grieving . especially sam . i mean , she deserves to be happy . she deserves to have her husband back . but i 'm not that guy anymore . and i 've made a commitment to elizabeth , and i love her . but [ scoffs ] how can i ignore the vows that ... i 've made with sam , you know ? you know , no matter what i do , there 's gon na be a good woman who loves me who gets hurt . how am i supposed to live with that ? spinelli : the one thing that has always remained true is your instincts . jason : [ chuckles ] well , they must not have survived the wreck that destroyed my face , because in all my struggles with memory loss , it did n't occur to me once that i was jason morgan . spinelli : and -- and -- and yet you were drawn back to all that was jason morgan . jason : i do n't think so . spinelli : you befriended carly . jason : [ chuckles ] actually , no , she befrieed me . she would n't take no for an answer . spinelli : well , you -- you found love with elizabeth , a friend in sam , a connection with michael . jason : sonny hated me . he even tried to kill me . spinelli : yet that did not stop you from saving his life . i ... i 'm just saying , from my observations ... your instincts seem to be intact . the one thing left is ... for you to trust them . [ computer beeps ] spinelli : we 're in . [ chuckles ] yes . we have a location on helena cassadine . [ keys clacking ] [ scene_break ] sam : look , jason needs help . he has no idea what he 's up against . [ sighs ] and i can think of three places he might start -- elizabeth : the only reason he left was to find closure . but he will be coming home to me . so i am asking you respect that , and to just leave him alone . sam : y - you 're talking to me about respect ? when have you ever respected jason ? you do n't even know him . elizabeth : what ? ! jason and i were together long before you even rolled into town ! i have loved him for years . sam : what are you talking about ? you have never loved jason . you loved the man that you created in your head . you convinced yourself that you could change him to something that he was n't -- this white knight on a horse , someone who came home at 5 : 00 and had dinner , someone who was safe and settled . that is not jason . never was , never will be . elizabeth : then why 'd he want to marry me ? why 'd he come home with me even after learning the truth ? sam : if you have n't noticed , elizabeth , jason has taken off . and he said that he 's not coming back until he can find the answers that he needs . what he 's doing is very dangerous . i lost him once . i 'm not gon na lose him again . elizabeth : [ scoffs ] sam i have a lot of things to take care of before i go . i am done talking to you . will you please get out of my house ? [ door opens ] [ scene_break ] patrick : why are you in favor of her chasing after jason ? anna : i - in order for you to have a future together , she has to choose you freely , you know ? clearly she has issues that she needs to work through in regards to jason . patrick : yeah , she does have issues . and in my opinion , she 's outgrown jason . we 've talked about this . she talked about not having a life of risk and danger , which is exactly what jason does . he put himself in front of her and danny all the time . obviously he does n't remember who he is , but he has n't changed much , because he took off without even telling anybody . anna : is this about more than -- than how bad jason is for sam ? patrick : i love sam . i want a life with sam . what if something happens to her while she 's out chasing jason ? she 's not even thinking of the grief that she 's inflicting on the people that are left behind , anna . anna : she 's taking a big risk , obviously . patrick : [ sighs ] anna : but you -- you ca n't save her by -- by guilting her into staying , you know ? she has to do whatever it is that she needs to , and you just have to trust that she loves you .

[ scene_break ] jason : what did you find ? spinelli : helena is on the island , in the bedroom on the third floor of the main villa , east side . jason : east side ? spinelli : yeah . and it 's a private island , so it is heavily guarded with armed security . and the -- the cassadines are not fond of uninvited guests . if they spot you , you wo n't get near her . [ keys clacking ] jason : then i guess i have to be very , very quiet . spinelli : yeah .

[ scene_break ] maxie : after lulu saw dante cuddling with you , she was a wreck . and instead of pulling you and her sorry excuse for a husband out of that car , she came to me . and we decided to check his e - mails . sure enough , there was your clingy little note . what ? could n't think up a better heading than `` thanks for last night `` ? so desperate and clingy . valerie : last time i checked , hacking into someone 's e - mail is illegal . maxie : well , dante and lulu are married , so , of course , she has all of his passwords . you should 've thought about that before you sent your little love letter . valerie : you have no idea what 's going on . maxie : actually , i do . and kudos to you for sending an e - mail to a guy knowing his wife would probably see it . sounds like a play right out of my playbook . i know a home - wrecking move when i see one . valerie : maxie , i did n't do anything wrong . maxie : i 've been the other woman , so i know the drill . this was just part of your carefully - orchestrated plan to ruin lulu 's marriage permanently . valerie : i do n't need to orchestrate a damn thing . lulu 's ruining her marriage all on her own . [ scene_break ] lulu : what kind of man keeps lying to his family over and over again ? dante : can we go talk about this in the interrogation room , please ? lulu : oh , now you 're embarrassed about what you 've done ? i 'm sure your buddies here would love to hear about your latest hookup with valerie . dante : yeah . you know , i think the squad room 's heard enough . let 's go . please . lulu : [ scoffs ] do you feel better about lying to my face in here instead of out in the squad room ? dante : i 'm not bringing you in here to save any kind of dignity or pride that we may have left . i mean , you threw all that out the window with that scene in there . i 'm trying to prevent you from a public admission of a felony . lulu : what the hell are you talking about ? dante : hacking into somebody 's e - mail is a felony , lulu . lulu : [ scoffs ] dante : you accessed my e - mail . my work e - mail . okay ? i 'm trying to stop you from blurting that out in front of everybody . lulu : i needed answers , and i know that you will lie to me . dante : [ sighs ] i did n't hook up with valerie , okay ? she 's in the police academy . she was on a ride - along with me last night . lulu : what ? dante : `` thanks for last night `` was in reference to valerie helping me collar a perp . i only slept with her on july the 4th . i 've told you that . i 've apologized for that . i 've told you how much i love you . now i 'm telling you , i think you 're pushing this too far . lulu : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] andré : come in . anna . anna : sorry ... for just showing up like this . andré : no . no worries at all . please , come in . what can i do for you ? anna : you 're right . i have some serious issues . i ca n't handle them on my own . i 'd like to ... i think maybe i should begin ...

as soon as sam discovers that jason has gone , she knows he needs her help and she needs to be there for him although patrick is very disenchanted about how she makes that more of a priority than their relationship . elizabeth is still very persistent and `` possessive `` of jason , not wanting anyone to talk to him alone or to risk him re - gaining his memory before she finds him . michael is confident that with jason 's offer to help him , he can take over elq , overthrow nikolas and file criminal charges against him . yet when he talks to sabrina about her pregnancy , she continues to evade him . lulu is unaware of dante 's new professional relationship working with valerie while she attends the police academy . after having seen them together in a car at night and then noticing valerie sending dante emails about the `` exciting night `` they had , she assumes this obviously means that they are sleeping together again behind her back . she is increasingly angry and distrusting of dante when she believes he 's lied to her after having sworn that he was only with valerie that one time and is committed to saving his marriage . maxie also sees the email as well as overhearing valerie sharing with the waitress the `` adventure `` she had the previous night and she goes to confront her . while dante explains what happened and proves to lulu that she 's really pushing this too far , valerie explains and tells maxie the same thing . dante concludes if his wife can not trust him , maybe there is no point in trying to save their marriage and they should end it . meanwhile , jason travels to portland somehow knowing ( without knowing ) that spinelli is the one person with the computer skills to find out what he needs to know in order to get his life back . although he admits having no memory of being spinelli 's friend , he feels a close bond in confiding with him about his present situation .

[ sighs ] i 'm sure once the judge reviews that file , she 'll side with us . anna : yeah . valentin : i would n't be so sure about that . [ scene_break ] curtis : why did sonny corinthos start to confess at his son 's funeral and then clam up when he got to the police station ? diane : my standard advice to all of my clients is to say nothing to law enforcement until and unless i am present . i can only assume that sonny remembered my sage advice and belatedly decided to exercise his right to keep silent . curtis : nah . he had a heart - to - heart with his bestie . now , what did jason say to sonny that changed this case ? diane : i 've got nothing to say to you . especially since i know you 're working for that dirtbag , julian jerome . but , hey , thank you so much for picking up the check . [ scene_break ] jason : i just need a little bit more time , and i can prove that you had nothing to do with that bomb . you do n't have to plead guilty . sonny : i am guilty . i failed my son , jason . jason : you did n't fail morgan . you are not responsible for his death , and no matter how much guilt you 're feeling for anything you think you might have done wrong as a father is gon na change what happened . and throwing your life away is n't gon na help anyone . sonny : you do n't understand . jason : no , i understand . you have four other kids . one of them is a toddler . do you really want avery growing up with ava jerome ? sonny : carly has a way to work it that avery can stay with her . jason : what about morgan ? sonny : morgan ? morgan 's dead . i 'm doing this for him , jason . jason : do you really think this is something that morgan would have wanted , you throwing away your life ? guard : time 's up . jason : give me a second . do you know the name oscar jessup ? sonny : yeah , i heard of him . jason : yeah ? sonny : yeah . i -- when i worked for scully , he was a contractor . he did a lot of work for the jeromes . jason : okay . it 's just something i 'm looking into . guard : now . jason : hey . uh ... do n't do something in this arraignment that you ca n't take back , okay ? it 's not too late . thank you . [ scene_break ] jax : josslyn , the hotel 's fine . really . josslyn : yeah , but why , when you have this whole house , and -- jax : it 's okay . please . just do n't put your mom on the spot like that . carly : josslyn 's right . i mean , we have plenty of room . we do . josslyn : see , dad ? carly : no privacy . but we have plenty of room . jax : [ chuckles ] okay , well , i guess we can make it work . we have before . carly : so , um , what is that ? josslyn : oh , it was my book report that was due like last week , but i told my english teacher i 'd finish it today . josslyn : no . no , i 'll finish it . i mean , i want to . i want the weekend to spend with you guys now that dad 's staying . you know what , actually , i 'll finish it now . carly : okay . how do you think she 's doing with everything ? jax : eh , i think she 's hurting a lot . carly : [ sighs ] i do n't think i 've been available enough for her . jax : no . are you kidding me ? you have . i think she gets her strength from you . she always has . [ scene_break ] griffin : you think because you can deceive a child you can deceive everyone else ? valentin : if anyone 's been less than truthful here , it 's claudette when she lied about charlotte 's paternity . griffin : claudette meant something to me . i owe it to her to protect her daughter till she can get back here and file for sole custody . valentin : well , i think claudette 's told her last tale . griffin : what is that supposed to mean ? valentin : claudette is a very troubled individual . we both know she only has a passing glance with the truth . i do n't think either one of us will ever see her again . griffin : what did you do to her ? ! anna : griffin . griffin : [ punches valentin ] anna : oh ! judge rawles : do i need to call security ? anna : no , no . judge rawles : or are you three capable of returning to your seats and hearing my decision ? valentin : you 'll get no trouble for me , your honor . anna : cool it . judge rawles : i know that tempers flare in cases like this . i see it every day . protecting a child brings out the most passionate responses in people . that said , i can not condone any kind of physical violence . is that understood ? griffin : that bastard hurt charlotte 's mother . judge rawles : i asked if i was understood . griffin : [ sighs ] understood . judge rawles : this physical alteration , inappropriate as i find it , has no bearing on my decision . this court is tasked with acting in the best interest of the child . it is clear that charlotte has bonded with her father , feels secure in his presence , and does , in fact , love him . while serious allegations have been made against mr. cassadine , there is corroborating evidence . and while it is somewhat troubling that mr. cassadine 's records only go back to 2011 , that is not in itself reason to deny him his child . therefore , i am awarding full legal and physical custody of the minor charlotte cassadine to her father , valentin cassadine . [ scene_break ] carly : i want you to know that it 's really great having you here for josslyn . and not just for josslyn , but for me , too . i mean , you know me in ways that most people do n't , and you know the right things to say to me , and you know what i need . jax : well , you say that now , but you know these waffles are just a one - time thing . tomorrow i 'm gon na make you one of my famous wheatgrass smoothies -- carly : ugh ! jax : i 'm gon na watch you drink it . carly : ugh ! no . jax : so do n't even think about distracting me and tipping it down the planter . carly : [ laughs ] you knew ? ! jax : of course . carly : [ laughs ] jax : you 're nowhere near as slick as you think you are . carly : [ laughs ] oh , wow . i forgot what it sounded like to laugh . jax : well , it 's good to hear it . now you need to stop feeling guilty about it . carly : morgan would hate seeing me like this , you know ? when he was diagnosed , he just kept saying , `` mom , i do n't want to see you upset . i do n't want you to get upset . `` jax : he still would n't . carly : this is different , though . but he 's gone , you know ? his life is over , and how do i -- jax : and he would n't want yours to be . carly : i do n't know how to do this , you know ? i mean ... how the hell do you move through this ?

[ scene_break ] franco : hey ! where are the doughnuts ? elizabeth : i forgot them . franco : oh ! i can go get some . elizabeth : did you try to choke tom baker ? franco . franco : what ? elizabeth : will you please just answer me ? franco : i told you i went over there . elizabeth : you never said you tried to choke him . franco : i never said i did n't . elizabeth : oh , my god . franco : elizabeth . hey ! the guy 's fine . elizabeth : that 's not the point . you lied to me . franco : not entirely . elizabeth : we just had a conversation about being honest with each other , and now you do this ? lying by omission about trying to choke someone ? franco : okay , it was n't like an end - his - life kind of choke . it was more like a send - a - strong - message choke . elizabeth : do you understand why this worries me ? franco : yeah . i do n't know . i 'm trying -- yes . elizabeth : it makes me question whether we can work as a couple . franco : do n't say that . elizabeth , hold on a second . we -- to be clear , i am not sorry for anything that i 've done . that guy is garbage , and he scares you . and seeing you scared , that really upsets me . elizabeth : i get that . i -- i do . franco : who told you i went after him ? elizabeth : he did . [ scene_break ] griffin : you ca n't do this ! you ca n't give charlotte to this man ! judge rawles : i have reviewed the affidavits submitted and all pertinent records , and there is no legal reason to deny mr. cassadine custody . griffin : he is a dangerous criminal ! judge rawles : dr. munro ! sit down . now , perhaps you are unfamiliar with the workings of the u.s. constitution , but there is a clause about equal protection of law . what that means is you do n't get to violate someone 's rights , because you do n't like them or do n't approve of them or are absolutely convinced that they are a dangerous criminal . in the absence of proof , all you have is your opinion , and that is not enough to deny a child her father . now , should charlotte 's mother resurface at some point in the future and should she wish to petition for custody , then that is a separate matter subject to separate review . griffin : your ho -- anna : stop . judge rawles : my decision in this case is final . charlotte , i 'd like to thank you for your help today . you made my job very easy . i am ordering you to stay in the state of new york until some questions are answered . valentin : that 's understood , your honor . i have every intention of staying in port charles indefinitely . judge rawles : dr. munro may have a moment to say goodbye . griffin : hey . look , the judge said you 're gon na stay with your papa , okay ? so , i -- i do n't know if you 're gon na see much of me anymore . but i need you to listen to this , charlotte . i will always be here for you . i know i 'm not your dad , but you 're in my heart just the same . anna : you must be pleased . valentin : what , are n't you ? the judge upheld my rights as a father under the law . is n't that what 's important to you ? the law ? [ scene_break ] franco : that guy called you ? elizabeth : no . franco : you saw tom baker ? elizabeth : at kelly 's . franco : i told that son of a bitch to stay away from you . elizabeth : and you did n't tell me you threatened to kill him . it 's disgusting that he 's out , and i did everything i could to keep him in prison , but he is legally paroled . he has every right to call the police a - and have them send you to jail , and i ca n't let that happen . i ca n't let him take you away from me . so you need to promise me you 're gon na let this go . and i need you to swear it . [ scene_break ] josslyn : uh , can i read you guys something from my report ? carly : um , yeah , sure . jax : yeah , what 's the book report about ? josslyn : `` pride and prejudice . `` carly : ooh ! i love that . josslyn : so , for the report , we have to answer some questions , and i 'm not sure that i did this one right . carly : okay , well , what are the questions ? josslyn : why did elizabeth fall in love with mr. darcy after he made a bad first impression ? jax : well , i think i can answer that from personal experience . carly : i think we should let josslyn answer the question first . josslyn : `` mr. darcy was arrogant and quite proud of his wealth and position . but elizabeth bennet was not interested in money or position . she wanted to be true to herself . and they fought a lot . you know , they were hot and cold with each other . but eventually , they realized that they belonged together , because they were more themselves with each other than they were with anyone else . `` so , what do you guys think ? did i get my point across ? jax : maybe give it another pass . perhaps work on a subtler touch .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i keep telling you , olivia , to be more careful . that 's all i 'm saying , but you do n't want to listen , because all you do is flap , flap , flap your mouth . olivia : no , see , you keep mistaking me for someone who is going to take orders from you , and i never have and i never will . no matter how hard you push . sonny : you give yourself a lot of importance in my life , do n't you ? olivia : see , you 're just pissed off that i had you pegged from the minute i laid eyes on you , okay ? this is sonny 's world and we 're all just living in it , waiting for the honor to come into your attention . sonny : well , you should be glad that i paid attention . otherwise , you 'd be burned to a crisp . olivia : okay , yes . thank you for saving me . now , have a nice a life and stay the hell out of mine , okay ? sonny : who are you to tell anybody to mind their own business when all you do is spout out judgments and opinions and nobody really wants to listen to what you got to say ? olivia : i speak my mind . sonny : oh , yeah ? too much . olivia : yeah , for your taste , i 'm sure . sonny : okay , you think i 'm wrong ? why do n't we get on the phone with your son ? let me -- let me -- get the phone . let me talk to your son .

's not going to entertain any of your appeals . you 're lucky he 's not here , spinelli . my advice to you right now , hit the road before he comes back . spinelli : that may be the most prudent choice . i -- i thank you for your wise counsel .

[ lucky sighs ] lucky : i do n't know . i 'm starting to understand how dad felt when he lived in there . you know ? sometimes , it closes in on me , too . just too many things happened there . parents ' marriage fell apart . so did ours . that house is about the past . we need a future . we need a fresh start , someplace where we can make a new life together that is a million miles away from all the mistakes that we 've made . [ scene_break ] maxie : yes , kate . lulu is on it . well , i 'm supervising . no , his agent has n't called back yet . i understand . i 'll keep trying . spinelli : okay . all security cameras for the show have been set up and are functioning properly . and i did a walkthrough of the gallery with all onsite personnel . maxie : how does it look ? spinelli : the cameras are undetectable . they wo n't detract from the show , if that 's what you mean . maxie : no , no , no . i 'm talking about the art show . you know more about art than i do -- a lot more . so if the artist were , let 's say , to happen to make an appearance , do you think he would like it ? spinelli : according to my research , the artist is a recluse , has n't been seen in public for years . so what makes you think that he 's actually going to show up today ? maxie : because kate howard wants him there ? [ scene_break ] sonny : meeting 's at a brownstone , residential area . luke spencer suggested it . it 's better to keep things neutral , low profile . dominic : it 'd be a lot easier to contain things if we had the meeting here -- sonny : no . we agreed everything would be equal . we would each bring 2 men -- jason and you , because you have a history with the zaccharas . dominic : i understand . jason : what about guards ? [ sonny sighs ] sonny : max and milo are going to take us , but they 're not going in . dominic : that 's a huge risk we 're taking . sonny : well , it 's a great risk taken if we can have joey limbo on our side , anthony shut out , and we avoid war at all possible costs . okay ? any questions ? jason : no . sonny : can you do me a favor and let me have a minute , make sure dominic 's ready ? [ door shuts ] sonny : i just -- i want you to know i 'm depending on you . dominic : yeah , i know . sonny : anything comes up , you do what you got to do . dominic : right . sonny : fine . and the picture , claudia 's dead body . do you have any idea where it came from ? [ dominic sighs ] [ scene_break ] johnny : well , it 's just like i thought . claudia died in the cabin where carly had her baby . that 's where this picture was taken . it had to be . then they burned the place down . sonny covered it up so he would n't have to look at her . olivia : do n't do this to yourself . johnny : this picture could n't have been taken long after she died . how the hell did you get this ? olivia : it 's a copy . someone sent the original to jason -- johnny : it 's a copy ? olivia : dominic pirelli brought it . johnny : why ? olivia : i 'm not going to lie to you , john . dominic thinks that you might have sent it . johnny : why would i do that ? olivia : revenge ? johnny : is that what you think ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm picturing a really big , old fashioned home with lots of windows and a wrap - around porch . we can put a couple of rocking chairs on there so we can watch the sunset every night . and the mornings -- can you imagine how quiet the mornings must be ? all you would hear are the birds and the wind in the trees and our crazy , screaming children on all this land . lucky : what 's wrong ? that 's perfect . keep going . elizabeth : no , i know . but it 's not like we would ever be able to afford this . i mean , i 'm sure the property itself is expensive , but to build a house on top of it ? even if we started saving right now , we would n't have a down payment for years . lucky : it 's just money , elizabeth . there 's always ways to find some . elizabeth : oh , jeez . now you 're sounding like your dad . lucky : what ? i 'm not talking about scamming anybody , i do n't think . but do n't worry about it . we both have good jobs . elizabeth : yeah , well , it 's not going to mean anything if we do n't have a down payment . unless -- unless we consider plan `` b. `` lucky : plan `` b `` ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . lucky : i 'm listening . elizabeth : we could sell my house and use that money , if you 're comfortable with it . lucky : why would n't i be ? elizabeth : jason bought me that house . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i took advantage of you . i used you . we both need this to be over . rebecca : nikolas , you do n't get to tell me how to feel . and even though you 're still in love with her , not everything that we 've shared has been about emily . we made love and walked out on the cliffs , watched stupid horror movies . we had fun at the haunted star . and those times were about us . and we can have more of them . come on . now that everything 's out in the open , i 'm willing to try again . nikolas : i 'm sorry . you need to leave right now . rebecca : so i 'm being dismissed ? nikolas : once you 've had a chance to think about what i 've just told you , you 'll realize you 're better off without me . [ rebecca scoffs ] rebecca : ahh . [ door shuts ] [ knock on door ] [ scene_break ] carly : hey . i wanted to bring josslyn , but i thought you 'd worry . jason : i 'm just getting ready for a meeting . carly : oh , you have a minute , do n't you ? i wanted to celebrate . i get to eat real food , so i brought beer and cheesy snacks . jason : sorry . i ca n't . i do n't have time right now . carly : mmm . wow . thought you were done with that . jason : it 's just -- it 's just for backup . the meeting 's actually to set up a truce . carly : that 's a change , huh ? jason : yeah . i ca n't really talk about it . carly : i 'm worried about you . i think you 're being way too hard on yourself about michael . jason : he killed somebody . to you and me , it was an accident . it was self- defense . but to michael , it was something that he thinks had to be done . no regret , not even confused . and it scares me . this is not how his life was supposed to be , carly . [ scene_break ] dominic : look , i have no proof of who took that photo , but i do have a theory . sonny : i assume you have n't mentioned it to jason . dominic : no , and i wo n't . i think you need an unbiased take from someone who was not at that cabin that night . sonny : what have you found out ? dominic : it 's nothing concrete , sir . i do n't think we should act on anything yet . i 'm just using my instincts here . sonny : i 'm listening . dominic : look , i do n't know who took that photo , but john zacchara may have sent it to jason . sonny : why would he do that ? dominic : well , he 's out of his mind with grief . he 's anthony zacchara 's son . i mean , we know he used to be crazy in the past . he had a whole team of lawyers following him around and cleaning up after him . sonny : sure . dominic : he 's unstable . insanity runs in that family . i mean , this could be him losing it for real . he does n't know what happened to his sister , where she is . i mean , that 's a lot to deal with . sonny : well , he knows what happened to his sister . how would he have gotten the picture ? dominic : no idea . i mean , jason destroyed all the evidence , unless there 's something he missed , or maybe something i do n't know about . sonny : you were with him that night . could he have taken the picture ? dominic : when the basement started flooding , he left to go get help , and then , everything was fuzzy after that . i -- it would help if we could establish , like , a clear timeline . sonny : the less said about that night , the better . dominic : i understand . but if johnny got his hands on a crime scene photo , this could be enough to push him over the edge . sonny : get me proof , concrete proof -- and , you know , i ca n't have johnny zacchara going around making trouble for anybody . dominic : look . i could be totally off base on this -- sonny : no , no . if you 're right , and johnny sent that picture , then he 's out of control . and he needs to be dealt with . [ scene_break ] olivia : i 'm not accusing you of anything , john . i 'm just telling you where i got the picture . johnny : were you ever going to show it to me ? olivia : i honestly do n't know . johnny : do you think i sent it to jason ? you ca n't honestly think i 'm capable of doing that . olivia : you 're grieving , you know . you 're trying to process a lot of emotions , and you do n't have any family to help you through it . i mean , revenge is part of the world that you live in . it 's got to be on your mind . johnny : you 're damn right revenge is on my mind . how could it not be ? look at this photo ! look at my sister -- on the floor , dead , like she 's nothing . yeah , she did a lot of bad things in her life , but she did not deserve this . olivia : do n't look at that disgusting thing anymore . you ca n't change what already happened , okay ? the best thing that you can do is get out . save yourself . get out of the organization . do n't even think about revenge anymore . johnny : everybody used my sister when she was alive -- everybody -- from the time we were kids . but she loved me . she trusted me . and if you think that i sent this picture to anybody , that i 'm capable of treating her with that kind of disrespect after what sonny did to her -- you do n't know me at all . [ door slams ] [ scene_break ] maxie : kate finally explained to me why this art show is so important , and it could be brilliant if it actually works . spinelli : well , perhaps , i could be of assistance if i also understood the situation . maxie : no . spinelli , i 'm so sorry . i 'm sorry that i 'm so hyper , too . i 'm just really excited . i mean , this artist is so cutting edge . he 's considered to be visionary -- you know , according to people who know about that kind of stuff . but he also -- he 's a photographer , so kate wants him to take pictures and do kind of , like , a layout behind the layout . it 'll just be amazing . like , he 's going to consult with other `` crimson `` employees , maybe even me . how awesome would that be if i could see myself in the pages of `` crimson `` magazine ? spinelli : that would indeed be splendid , but sadly , i fear that there is little or no chance of that coming to pass . the artist does n't appear in public , so there 's little chance of him coming tonight . and even if he does , he would undoubtedly refuse a commission to work for `` crimson . `` maxie : well , he has to show up . it 's kind of my job to make sure that happens . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : we need to consider what the money from my house represents -- all those times i ran to jason and i shut you out and i lied to you . lucky : i do n't want to talk about this right now , elizabeth . you do n't need to keep bringing it up . elizabeth : i know . but i married you when i knew i had feelings for another man , and i promised you that i would n't hurt you again , and there 's -- lucky : no , you wo n't . elizabeth : i 'm just really afraid that something 's going to happen and that i 'm going to lose you this time . lucky : look , i do n't care if we use the money from the house that jason bought you to build our home . it does n't matter to me . this is our life , elizabeth . it 's our journey . [ scene_break ] [ jason sighs ] carly : well , i put the beer in the fridge , and i 'm going to take these cheesy snacks with me , unless spinelli wants them . do you think he wants them ? jason : not his brand . carly : mmm . so , is dominic involved in whatever it is you 're doing tonight ? jason : okay . you know i ca n't tell you that . carly : well , lulu 's getting serious about him . jason : well , you know what ? i do n't really care who lulu goes out with . carly : well , i do . i mean , do you approve of him ? he seems like a nice enough guy . he saved morgan that night at the carnival , and he probably saved lulu when she went looking for me at the zacchara mansion . so come on . you know him better than i do . jason : uh , he seems like a decent guy . carly : can you tell me what you think ? jason : okay . uh , dominic is ambitious . he 's getting closer to sonny every day , and he 's in pretty deep , and i do n't see him getting out anytime soon . carly : so tell lulu to run , not walk , away . jason : well , that never worked with you , carly . carly : well , hopefully , she 's a lot smarter than i was . jason : oh , i hope so , because if lulu gets involved with dominic , she 's going to put herself right in the middle of the violence . [ scene_break ] lulu : johnny . johnny ! [ johnny panting ] johnny : sorry . i did n't see you there . lulu : i guess i do n't need to ask how things are going . johnny : you 've known sonny for quite a while , right ? lulu : yeah . my whole life . johnny : has any of this changed how you feel about him ? the whole thing with claudia , how he called out , then killed , her ? lulu : well , we do n't really know what happened to claudia -- johnny : somebody does . lulu : i wish that i could help you with this . johnny : you ca n't . lulu : you 're just upset right now , and you might not really know what you 're saying . johnny : sorry i scared you . lulu : no , johnny . wait . wait , wait , wait . um -- what i 'm saying is that you 're vulnerable , and you 're so upset , you , um , might say things to the wrong people . johnny : what do you mean , the wrong people ? lulu : just be careful around dominic . johnny : why ? lulu : i 'm not -- he 's a great guy . i would have drowned . i would have died if it was n't for him being there with me in the basement -- johnny : just say it . lulu : dominic may not have your best interests at heart , so just , you know , be careful what you say and what you do around him . dominic : oh . looks like you two are having a serious conversation . must be about me . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] sonny : hi . you okay ? [ olivia sighs ] olivia : do n't take this the wrong way , sonny , but what do you want ? sonny : has johnny been here ? olivia : it 's none of your business . sonny : how 's he doing ? olivia : well , uh , he 's grieving . his sister disappeared . to tell you the truth , he 's not taking it very well . sonny : well , we all know claudia 's psychotic , and anthony spent half the time in the back of his mansion 'cause he was so nuts . let 's just hope johnny does n't end up that way , at the rate things are going . olivia : if you 're concerned for my safety , you do n't have to be . okay ? i 'm perfectly safe with johnny . sonny : yeah . okay , okay . i just -- it 's not that long ago , you know , johnny was out of control , jumping off buildings , wrecking cars . i 'm just saying he may be going over the edge because of what happened to his sister . olivia : would you listen to yourself ? `` what happened to his sister , `` like she caught some fatal illness or got struck by lightning or hit by a bus crossing the street . sonny : i 'm worried . i -- you know , i 've been informed that johnny 's not thinking clearly , and he could be dangerous . now , the zaccharas have hurt too many people that i love , and i do n't want johnny to hurt you . [ scene_break ] carly : you 're upset about a lot more than this meeting or michael . i 'm guessing there 's zero chance you 're going to tell me what 's really going on , huh ? jason : zero chance . carly : okay . all right . well , you know , if you change your mind , i 'm here . you can always talk to me . jason : i know . i 'm grateful for that . carly : okay . you know , why do n't you come by and see josslyn ? i mean , everything seems much more simpler when there 's a baby in your arms . jason : why would you even want me near josslyn after what happened to michael ? carly : that 's why i hate elizabeth . jason : what does that have to do with anything ? carly : she talked you into giving up jake . she gave you some song and dance about how dangerous you are -- jason : it 's better for jake this way , carly -- carly : no , it 's not , and i will never believe that . jason : yes , it is . i can not bring jake back into my life , so i have to believe that lucky loves jake as his own . i 'm going to believe that lucky 's going to be a better father than i ever could be . [ scene_break ] lucky : tell you what . i 'll check around and get a price on the property . elizabeth : okay . lucky : and if it 's anywhere near our ballpark , we can start putting together a budget , filling out loan applications , and i 'll check into the zoning regulations just to make sure we can build whatever we want . and you , you can put your house up on the market . elizabeth : it sounds so real . [ elizabeth chuckles ] [ elizabeth sighs ] lucky : if you 're having second thoughts , now 's the time to tell me . elizabeth : i 'm not . i 'm not . i absolutely love the idea of building a house with you far away from everything . lucky : we 'll be paying it off till we 're grandparents . elizabeth : that 's okay . we 'll have our little rocking chairs on our big porch . lucky : we might have to settle for that porch on royal street for a time . elizabeth : and that 's fine . lucky : i 'll talk to my folks about selling the house , but i do n't know -- elizabeth : yeah , i would n't . i think i can get a better price for mine . and maybe , we can rent it out and use the money for our mortgage . lucky : that 's a good idea . elizabeth : besides , we need someplace to stay while we build our dream house . lucky : see , now you 're dreaming with me . i like that . [ elizabeth laughs ] [ scene_break ] olivia : i appreciate your concern for me , sonny . i really do . but you got nothing to worry about . okay ? john is hurting right now . he 's all over the place . he 's trying to make sense of something that just does n't make any sense . sonny : but do we really know what johnny 's capable of doing ? are you safe with him ? olivia : johnny would never hurt me . sonny : that 's exactly what my mother used to say . olivia : no , no . do n't even -- do n't even go there , sonny . sonny : no , i know . it 's the same thing . i mean , it 'd start out with deke yelling , then he started throwing things , and he would say he would never hurt her . then , one night , he hit her . and i was right there . i saw the whole thing . it scared the hell out of me . and then , you know , my mother would always say , `` deke would never hurt me . deke would never hurt me , `` until he started beating on her , and she started getting marks . she had nothing else to say , so she started making things up . `` oh , it 's just the holidays . `` oh , this , oh , that . it did n't matter . she 'd always forgive him . olivia : johnny 's not like that . sonny : okay . and then , you know , she was tired of making excuses , and she started blaming herself for getting him mad . olivia : you know what ? i happen to know that your mother was n't the only one getting smacked around in your house . sonny : she did everything she could to protect me . olivia : look , sonny ? sonny : yeah ? olivia : you know that i 've got nothing but respect for your mother , right ? sonny : right . olivia : i am nothing like adela . you seriously think i 'm going to take crap off johnny zacchara or anyone else ? sonny : i just never thought that you 'd go out with someone like that . olivia : johnny is nothing like deke . i mean , he does n't try to control my life . i think he 's proven he 's not jealous . he sure as hell ai n't a cop . sonny : his sister just got killed . we do n't know where his mind is and what he could do . olivia : okay . johnny has never raised a hand to me , all right ? if he ever did , that would be it . and that 's after i broke his head open with a frying pan and kicked him down the stairs . all right ? nobody 's going to hurt me and get away with it . sonny : can you promise you 'll call me if something seems odd ? olivia : sonny -- [ indistinct ] keep pushing , do you , do you ? ah . sonny : no , no , no . do n't walk away from me . do n't walk away from me . listen to me . promise me that if you get scared , if something does n't seem right , you will call me . olivia : i 'm trying to tell you that johnny does n't scare me , okay ? sonny : i 'm not leaving here until you promise me . olivia : okay . i do n't want you to worry about me , so in the name of adela , may god rest her soul , i promise .

nikolas : the board will be meeting on your request to have robin removed from the staff . once you 've presented your side , we 'll hear robin 's from her hospital bed . lisa : do you think that 's a good idea ? steve : robin has the right to defend herself . lisa : no , no . of course she does . i just meant do you think it 's a good idea for her to get so upset since she 's still recovering from a severe burn -- patrick : well , if you were really worried about robin , you 'd drop the whole thing . lisa : okay , patrick , do you really think that this is an easy decision for me ? you 're one of my best friends . the last thing i want to do is hurt you . but i just ca n't turn a blind eye to robin 's behavior anymore . i would n't be doing her or the hospital any favors . patrick : robin is a very good doctor , and this hospital needs her . lisa : who 's become a liability . i 'm not talking about this has happened one time -- it 's not an isolated incident . it 's happened over and over again , and i 'm not the only one who 's noticed . i mean , half the staff saw her hit me . do you think that 's appropriate workplace behavior ? okay , whether you want to believe it or not , i do not have an agenda here . i just want the board to know the truth -- to know the truth so that robin can get the help that she needs . nikolas : i 'm inclined to give robin the benefit of the doubt here , but at the same time , i have to be fair . steve : and i 'd love to believe robin 's version , that lisa provoked every incident . but there is no evidence to back up her claims . patrick : so how do you think the board is going to respond ? steve : well , they 're going to ask some tough questions , and robin 's going to have to keep her answers clear and concise and keep her emotions out of it . patrick : keep her emotions out of it ? it 's robin you 're talking about . steve : if she has a meltdown , she 's going to be doing herself more harm than good . [ scene_break ] robin : i was really nervous about you and sonny -- i mean , 'cause i knew how dangerous he was . but on the other hand , he was so good to me and stone , you know , and you were crazy about him . so it did n't seem to matter . [ brenda chuckles ] robin : what ? brenda : i went to such extreme lengths to manipulate him into asking me to move in with him . [ laughs ] sonny : what are you doing ? brenda : sit - ups . sonny : well , i figured that . why ? brenda : 'cause i do 100 sit - ups every morning . sonny : oh , man . since when ? brenda : well , i did n't think it was the most romantic thing to do when i used to stay the night over . sonny : so , what happened to romance ? brenda : well , we are going to be waking up every morning together from now on , so i figured i should get back into my regular routine . [ scene_break ] sonny : i had these -- these moments with brenda that i could n't believe , because she would do anything to be with me . olivia : i bet you never admitted it , though , right ? sonny : well , you know . i was too cold . [ olivia chuckles ] sonny : but i got to say , she scared me , a lot , 'cause she was ... demanding , insecure . and i said things to her that i 'll always regret . but like i said , when it was good , it was good . [ scene_break ] suzanne : may i come in ? dante : can we do this in the morning ? suzanne : so , you 're planning on coming back to guard brenda , even though she asked you not to ? dante : yeah . look , with all due respect , i do n't work for brenda . i was assigned to guard her , and i will until further notice . suzanne : well , i can read brenda like a book . bringing up the africa trip is not what freaked her out . it was the fact that i made a connection between you and the name that she was calling out in the hospital all those years ago . and you seem pretty affected by it , too . so , what 's the story , detective ? what 's the connection , the real connection , between you and brenda ? [ scene_break ] jason : you need to stop this now . you 're out of control . carly : do n't act like you did n't hear what i just said . jason : you have the gift of making most people believe any lie that you tell them . this is crazy . carly : are you kidding ? i could n't even have dreamed up this . and the best part is it 's true . dante and brenda had an affair in 2007 . i can prove it , jason . i have a witness . jason : tell me about this witness . carly : see ? you believe that there 's a chance that brenda and dante could have had an affair , or you would n't be asking me that . jason : proof . what kind of proof do you have , carly ? carly : i tracked down one of the other cops . his name is brad norman . he worked on brenda 's security detail in 2007 . he was an nypd , and now , he 's a security consultant . jason : okay . what did he tell you ? carly : brad and dante and a couple of other cops guarded brenda in 2007 when she was in manhattan . and whenever brad showed up to relieve dante , he was supposed to be out in the hall waiting . he was never there . he was always in brenda 's suite . soon after , she requested that dante take over the third shift , the midnight to 8 am . jason : yeah , i know what the third shift is . carly : so i do n't have to tell you what they were doing . anyway , on the last day , brenda requested that only dante take her out to the car . she was extremely upset . brad said that he thought they were sleeping together . jason : did he ask dante ? carly : yeah . jason : and ? carly : dante did n't deny it . jason : so basically , you have no proof . you gave this guy your worst - case scenario , and you just heard what you wanted to hear . [ scene_break ] dante : look , brenda 's got this balkan guy trying to kill her . she ca n't even go to the bathroom without a team of security guards following her around . she 's going crazy . why do n't you try to stop digging up dirt behind her back and be there as her good friend to give her the support she needs ? suzanne : most people find brenda off - putting . you do n't even seem fazed by the fact that she just dismissed you earlier . dante : she 's in a situation she hates right now , and i do n't blame her , you know ? she went off . i 'd do the same thing . i think we all need to just step back and let her breathe . suzanne : we step back , we run the risk of getting her killed . dante : i 'm not saying we let her fend for herself . but she knows when people are trying to look after her . she does n't like it , so you have to do it in a way that she does n't know what 's happening . dante : you know brenda better than i thought you did , maybe even better than you should . [ scene_break ] brenda : do you know that i loved sonny more than i 've ever loved anyone in my whole life ? he was my whole world . robin : it was a little more complicated for him . he was very secretive . he still is . brenda : i know . funny , because now , i understand having to keep secrets . but back then , i just could n't wrap my brain around it . did n't matter , though . i still thought nothing would ever stop us . robin : you think it was fate ? brenda : yes . i do . i did . i just felt so important when i was with him . the first time ever just felt like ... i mattered . like he was that person , you know , that person , the person who loves you forever , no matter what . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm sorry , going on and on . olivia : oh , no . it 's okay . sonny : well , you do n't want to hear about , you know , me and other women , while you were raising our son in bensonhurst . olivia : sonny , you did n't know 'cause i did n't tell you . sonny : if i had known , you know i would have been there . olivia : yeah . but then , you never would have had brenda , and i would n't have got to raise dante exactly the way that i wanted to . and as it is , we 've got a fabulous son that we can both be very proud of . i 'm really happy that you feel you can confide in me like this . i do n't think i 've ever seen this side of you before . sonny : well , you know , it 's -- i ca n't really explain it . i 've had a lot of beautiful women , including yourself , of course . no . i mean , i used to own a strip joint . olivia : mm - hmm . sonny : so i could have much -- i could have had , like , a lot of girls , you know . olivia : [ laughs ] yeah . but something was different about brenda . what set her apart ? sonny : well , she was spoiled . she was , you know , rich . she lived a privileged life and treated it like was nothing . olivia : and you just had to prove that you were good enough , right ? sonny : well , it started that way . and then , it became a lot more , you know , 'cause i could n't believe that i could feel that much for somebody . and then , she gave me her heart and soul . and i could n't get enough . [ scene_break ] steve : patrick , you need to get robin to reconsider . patrick : she 's determined to do this . nikolas : i could probably table this issue for at least another month . elizabeth : what 's going on ? nikolas : lisa is petitioning the hospital board to have robin removed from the staff . elizabeth : robin 's one of the best doctors we have . steve : yeah , well , so is lisa . and she has a specialty , which we really need . nikolas : robin wants to speak to the board and tell her side of the story . elizabeth : okay . that sounds reasonable . patrick : yes . and she 's determined to do it now , even if the board meets in her room . elizabeth : can you keep that from happening ? nikolas : well , if a doctor on staff wants to speak to the board directly , there 's really not much i can do , assuming that the doctor is thinking clearly . patrick : the doctor is thinking clearly . nikolas : right . really ? because she 's on an awful lot of pain medication right now , and she 's quite emotional over lisa -- patrick : of course she 's emotional toward lisa . look at all the things lisa 's done . steve : hold on , both of you . i 'm not making any judgments either way . and i can appreciate that robin is upset about lisa . but she 's made some serious accusations , and so far , none of them have panned out . so see if you can get her to back off for just a little while , because if she loses it in front of the board , she 'll be making lisa 's case for her . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] johnny : dr. niles . [ scene_break ] patrick : robin 's not going to back down . and i 'm going to support her every step of the way . elizabeth : would it be appropriate for me to make a statement ? 'cause i 'm more than happy to stand up for her . steve : i may take you up on that . nikolas : that sounds like a good idea , but it will only open the door for lisa to bring in other staff members to make statements as well . and a lot of people have seen robin go off on lisa . patrick : you 're the chief trustee . you 'll be running the meeting . if you see her getting too upset , then you can cut it short . nikolas : i 'll look out for robin in every way possible , but the board knows that we 're friends , so i have to be fair to lisa . and like it or not , there 's no proof that lisa has done anything to robin . she also has a lucrative practice here . robin 's more on the research side . the board takes a look at all that stuff . patrick : all right . lisa brings in more money for the hospital . elizabeth : yeah , but lisa 's insane . how 's that going to look for the hospital long - term ? nikolas : she passed her psych evaluation with flying colors . the board wo n't ignore that , either . we also ca n't appear to conspire to protect robin in any way . [ scene_break ] johnny : i always get so damn turned around in this hospital . dr. patterson 's office , is it on this floor ? lisa : dr. patterson 's office is down that corridor to the right . johnny : thank you . i 've missed this post - op check - up twice , and i do n't want to screw it up a third time . lisa : well , you better not . you were in pretty bad shape after you got shot . johnny : yeah . lisa : yeah . johnny : listen . i wanted to say something to you before this , but thank you for not turning me in for trying to influence you during sonny 's murder trial . lisa : do n't worry about it . jury turned out to be completely irrelevant , anyway . johnny : yeah . i was out of line , though . i could have gotten you into a lot of trouble . lisa : yeah , well , you push too much because you care so much . i wish other people understood that way of thinking . johnny : yeah . [ lisa chuckles ] johnny : anyway , thanks . lisa : okay . johnny : uh . lisa : to the right . johnny : thank you . lisa : mm - hmm . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : brad norman is a completely unbiased witness , okay ? he has no reason to lie . he likes dante . jason : he did n't tell you anything . carly : no , nothing except that dante was in brenda 's suite every night for a week . jason : yeah , but he 's got no proof , just like you . carly : no , but dante did n't deny it . jason : maybe the question was so ridiculous , he did n't answer it . carly : oh , you do that . dante does it . `` you can just tell these things . `` those were brad 's exact words . jason : maybe . but you have no proof . and without proof , you have nothing . just leave it alone . [ scene_break ] dante : if you want to talk about brenda 's security detail , that 's fine . but otherwise , i got things to do . suzanne : brenda 's security detail will be adversely affected if her bodyguard ca n't maintain a professional detachment . dante : well , i 'm not a bodyguard , for one thing . i 'm a cop . jasper jacks requested that i guard brenda , and the department complied . suzanne : and is mr. jacks aware of your emotional bond with brenda ? dante : you are reading way too much into this situation . suzanne : look , i 've worked with brenda a long time . i know that she is nice to the men who guard her . but from what i just saw over at jason 's , what you two said and did n't say to each other ? i think you 're more than just a cop doing guard duty . dante : i see that you fancy yourself as a perceptive person , but you could n't be more far off , in this case . suzanne : you 've put your life on the line for her more than once . dante : so has jason , a bunch of times . is he part of this , too ? suzanne : [ sighs ] brenda and jason do n't hate each other as much as they think . but when she was deathly ill in africa , it was n't jason she was calling out for . it was you . dante : what do you want to hear from me , that i had a crush on her back -- of course i did . every cop who was working for her did . she 's beautiful . but i did n't think `` a , `` that she would remember me , or `` b , `` that she would have any feelings for me of any kind . suzanne : so that 's the story you 're sticking with . dante : even i know that a supermodel has zero interest in a cop who opens doors for her . [ suzanne sighs ] [ scene_break ] olivia : you know , sonny , i really like getting this little -- thank you -- glimpse in the middle of your life . of course , i knew you so well when we were growing up , and i know you now . everything that happened in the middle was always kind of a mystery to me . sonny : you 're probably better off , 'cause when i left bensonhurst to go to the paradise lounge , it was not my finest hour . i was going down the wrong road , and i did n't know at the time that when they shut down the paradise lounge , it would be the best thing for me , 'cause i was right in position to take over for frank smith when he died . olivia : right . sonny : it 's the first time i got a taste of serious money , real power . olivia : [ sighs ] right . a force to be reckoned with , as they say . sonny : brenda was with me through all of that . and we lived in this apartment over luke 's club . it was quite the set - up . um -- i mean -- [ olivia and sonny laugh ] sonny : right now , it seems like it 's cliché , but it was probably the best place i ever lived . olivia : i can see it right now . i see some shiny shades , a lot of smoked glass , black leather , a little chrome . sonny : yeah . chrome everywhere . so much chrome that if you looked at it , it would blind you . and then , it had the dimmer for the lights to set the mood , right ? candles and all of that kind of stuff . it was very slick , 'cause i was pretty slick when i was young . olivia : yeah . you 're still pretty slick . sonny : brenda saw right through all that , you know . she wanted the best for me . she expected me to have more . basically , if it was n't for her , i would n't be who i am . [ scene_break ] robin : we just had so much fun , you and sonny and me and stone . brenda : i know . we did . the good times definitely outweighed the bad times . robin : yeah . i think that 's why it 's so easy for me to romanticize stone , you know , because we did n't have time to experience the bad . brenda : yeah . robin : we did n't have to make any hard choices because , well , the biggest one was made for us , so all there was left to do was have fun and love each other . do you remember our first double date , when we lied to my uncle mac , and then , we went to sonny 's apartment ? brenda : um , we were cool then . robin : we were . brenda : we were cool then . robin : and i started drinking , and i remember sonny did n't say anything . brenda : and sonny cooked , and the food was ridiculous . robin : it was . and then , he sent stone on some errand in the middle of the night to the post office ? i mean , it 's so obvious now what was happening , but i was clueless back then . brenda : you guys fell for that . that was so cute , 'cause that was his big plan for me . he always has a big plan for me . robin : and do you remember the night that luke 's club opened ? it was like everyone in port charles was there . brenda : yeah . and what happened to luke 's club ? robin : luke apparently trashed the place , and there was a fire . brenda : what happened to sonny 's old apartment ? robin : the building 's still standing , but i think it 's gutted . brenda : he always loved that apartment , you know . he said he 'd never leave it . i guess he did . robin : it 's kind of sad , when you think about it , you know . it 's like a memorial to a time when all of us were really happy . brenda : yeah .

[ scene_break ] jason : okay . we got a problem . we have several , actually . dante : all right . what 's up ? jason : first thing is , brenda does n't want you to guard her anymore . dante : well , that 's understandable . i 'm a constant reminder of the worst thing that ever happened to her . jason : right . and you are taking a risk , because if someone finds out that brenda shot the balkan 's son , and found out that you helped cover it up , it would n't be good for anybody . dante : all right . well , i 'm not worried about me , but i am worried about brenda . jason : that 's the other problem . [ scene_break ] max : hey . brenda : hey . max : i got the door open . i 'll take you inside . brenda : oh , thank you so much . max : uh , you know what ? the place is pretty burned out . i do n't know if you should walk in there by yourself . brenda : you know , could you just wait here ? i 'll be okay . you know what ? i mean , it 's been standing here so long , i doubt it 's going to fall down tonight , right ? max : uh , you know , i do n't like this . brenda : well , you could stand right by the front door , and you have my cell phone . i have yours . i 'll be fine . max : look , brenda , i 'm supposed to stay near to you . brenda : please ? i just want to spend a few minutes alone inside . max : okay . all right . just if anything happens , you make sure you call me , all right ? brenda : yes . i promise . [ scene_break ] maxie : lisa shoved me out of the way and ran right down that corridor . ronnie : well , how do you know that she did n't go somewhere else ? maxie : there was n't enough time . ronnie : was she ever out of your sight ? maxie : maybe for , like , two seconds , but that 's it . patrick : and this is the second time that lisa 's been in robin 's room with a needle . ronnie : is that true ? lisa : well , okay . a few days ago , i went to robin 's room because she was yelling . she was dealing with a very severe infection . i wanted to make sure that she was all right . i happened to have another patient 's arthritis medication in a syringe , but patrick already knows that . ronnie : is that true ? patrick : the part about the medication is true , but robin was yelling because you were trying to scare her , and it worked . lisa : okay . check robin 's chart . she was feverish . ronnie : yeah , but why would you go into robin 's room with a needle this time ? lisa : okay . you know what ? so far , i have been threatened with a body search , i 've been accused of deliberately trying to harm a patient . i think it 's best if i talk to a lawyer before i answer any questions . maxie : you ca n't answer any questions because you 're guilty . they 're going to find that syringe around here . you 're not getting away with this again . lisa : do i really have to listen to this ? ronnie : you know what ? let 's just calm down a little bit , ms. jones , okay ? look , if we find that syringe , though , you 're in serious trouble . [ scene_break ] carly : i agreed to put you up for free , but do n't push me . luke : do n't change the subject . carly : and i never agreed to free booze and caviar . luke : you blame dante for sending michael to prison . you were pissed at lulu for standing by him . so what gives ? carly : michael 's fine , and dante and lulu are good influences . luke : mmm . my daughter may buy those hearts and flowers , but not me . why are you pushing her into the arms of a man you hate ? [ scene_break ] michael : oh , hey . lulu : hi . michael : let me help you . lulu : thank you so much . is dante here ? michael : uh , you know , i just got here , so . lulu : okay . 'cause i wanted to surprise him with a little dinner . michael : oh , very nice . yeah , i can go by mom 's . she 'll be thrilled to see me . lulu : really ? that would be great , 'cause , you know , we 've just been talking so much about this whole brenda thing and how he did n't tell me that he knew her before , and i just want to move forward from this , you know ? has he said anything to you about it ? michael : oh , you know , i have n't really been here that much , so . lulu : does dante ever talk to you about me ? [ scene_break ] dante : why is it a problem for me to worry about brenda ? you worry about her . jason : yeah . that 's different . dante : why , 'cause you were married to her ? jason : 'cause carly does n't hate my guts . dante : oh . does carly hate my guts this week ? it 's kind of -- jason : carly 's digging into your past . dante : well , she 's not going to find anything . jason : she already did . dante : not aleksander . i mean , there 's no way . jason : she claims that she can prove that you and brenda had an affair .

[ scene_break ] alfred : the timing of your legal trouble with mr. jacks is unfortunate , considering your looming deportation problem . nikolas : yeah , yeah . well , the attorneys are looking for loopholes right now . as for jax , i knew he was angry at me for buying into the metro court , but i did n't see this coming . i mean , he 's literally buying the ground out from underneath me . nadine : hi , i 'm really sorry to just barge in on you like this . i hate it when people do that to me , just come in unannounced , and i would n't do it unless it was really important . i know how much you 're counting on this marriage to fix your citizenship status . it 's just -- i want to help you , and i will , just as soon as i get back . nikolas : where are you going ?

[ scene_break ] olivia : i just want you to be honest with yourself , sonny . and me -- connie -- but mostly with yourself . claim who you are . own it . stop trying to pretend you can change , because that just draws the people that you love in and makes them an easy target as soon as the mob comes up to bite you on the ass . you know , back in the day , in the old neighborhood , you started running with joe scully , all those kids . that was -- that was just an excuse for them to bang heads . you know , old school gang mentality . `` bros before hos , `` `` my street 's better than your street . `` you know ? for those kids , scully was like -- was like college . it was like four years they did n't have to be responsible . but for you , it was different . you know it . the mob was not some stop on the road for you . that was the road . you were addicted to power then . you 're addicted to power now . so why do n't you just own it , sonny ? sonny : it 's amazing how much you think you know me . olivia : i know you a hell of a lot better than connie . sonny : yeah . olivia : see , she 's still holding on to some kind of hope that you 're going to change . she ca n't let go . so you need to be a man . you need to be the standup guy that i know you are . you need to let go for her .

[ scene_break ] johnny : hey , when you return that gun , make sure it 's clean and the clip is reloaded , but do not reload it yourself . maxie : no , you should not even be handling a gun . spinelli : look , i was just trying to -- maxie : thank god johnny showed up to help you when he did . johnny : i do n't like unfair fights . maxie : yeah , well , this is me being grateful . because if anything had happened to spinelli -- i do n't even want to think about it . have you completely lost your mind ? where did you even get a gun , spinelli ? what -- what , do you think you would actually pull the trigger ? spinelli : it 's unanimous . we all concur . the jackal is a hopeless wimp . lulu : no , you are the only one that thinks that , because you have this skewed idea of what courage is based on what you 've learned from jason . but let 's face it , we care about jason despite what he does , not because of it . so you could n't pull the trigger and blow off somebody 's head ? that is a good thing . maxie : i agree . spinelli : but those men brutally attacked fair maximista . what would -- lulu : they are not men , spinelli . they are animals . they are soulless bastards who get a sick thrill from terrorizing people . is that what you really want to be ?

robert : well , it 's open - ended . you know , i 'm working on something important . patrick : of course you are . robert : you know , i guess i had that coming . patrick : just an observation . you have a very demanding job . fortunately , your daughter understood that . robert : my work was n't what kept me from robin 's funeral . i want to apologize that i -- well , if you 'll hear me out . hey sis , patrick : you do n't owe me any explanations . anna -- maybe . robert : anna knows the real reason that i was n't there . i mean , i really want to tell you , as well . patrick : no , i found out you heard you had a long - lost son . robert : lovett was never my kid . that was a story spencer made up to get me off the ledge . bridge , actually . but i was up there , ready to take the step . luke invented the story as a reason for me to keep going . patrick : well , that 's a pretty good reason . i know i would n't have made it without emma . robert : that 's why i bought into it so easily . i just wanted an excuse to run away . i could n't face my daughter 's death . in fact , you know , i still ca n't believe that she 's gone . sam : i thought you were on my side . mcbain : i am on your side . sam : it does n't sound like it . mcbain : look , from one obsessive to another , all i 'm saying is sometimes things -- you need to give them a little distance . that 's all . sam : from my husband ? mcbain : no , from the case , all right ? things get cloudy . you need to take a little break . maybe you and daniel , you want to -- sam : danny . mcbain : i 'm sorry . danny . look , it 's a beautiful day outside . maybe you want to take a walk in the park . what do you say , buddy ? you want to get a little fresh air ? sam : no , he does n't . and you know what ? i do n't need you to stand in for jason . sonny : what am i supposed to do ? michael 's running around , defending a.j . , trying to fix his train wreck of a life . alexis : i understand -- sonny : we 're talking about a.j . quartermaine here . you know how he operates . he 's gon na pile on the guilt . he 's gon na make michael feel responsible for his endless failures , and michael 's life 's gon na be derailed , and i 'm not letting that leach -- alexis : i get it . okay ? i really do . all right . but the fact is you have no grounds for legal action , which is not a green light for you to take non - legal action . sonny : did i say i was gon na do that ? alexis : you did n't have to . and keep in mind that going after a.j . is only gon na drive michael away . sonny : so what you 're saying is connie , johnny , and now a.j . quartermaine get to work the system to their advantage , and i just sit back and do nothing . alexis : yes . sonny : unacceptable . todd : something scary 's about to happen . carly : why do n't you just disappear , retreat into the shadows like a good alter ? connie : why do n't you buzz off ? i got some work to do . carly : yeah , you should . why do n't you get back to the world of high fashion ? what 's next , body glitter ? connie : like you 've never worn it . carly : you know what ? being around that mutant takes 10 years off my life . todd : hi . carly : hi . todd : hi . carly : a.j . 's out on bail . he 's gon na try and worm his way back into michael 's life , which is crazy , right ? because he 's never been a part of michael 's life . i mean , we 're his parents , me and sonny -- we are . he 's gon na try and turn michael against me . i think it 's already working . todd : well , maybe for now , but a.j . 's standing trial for a whole long list of criminal charges . i 'm sure he 's gon na go to jail for the rest of his life . carly : not if diane has anything to do with it . todd : he hired my lawyer ? carly : yes , and we both know how good she is . what if she finds a loophole ? what if she gets him off on a technicality ? what if a.j . goes free ? michael : why does this have to be so confusing ? starr : hey , why ca n't there just be a middle ground ? they 're both a little right , a little wrong , and you accept them both ? michael : i 'm trying . but i know they 'll never accept each other . starr : give it some time . michael : my dad threatened to kill a.j . if he did n't give up his parental rights . and this was after my mom got pushed down a flight of stairs by a.j . when she was five months pregnant with what would have been my baby brother . [ sighs ] so , yeah , i 'm pretty sure we 're never gon na be one big happy family . tracy : what 's wrong with daddy ? monica : he 's unresponsive , his breathing is labored , and his pulse is very slow . tracy : oh , my god . we 've got to get him to the hospital . monica : no , we do n't . tracy : monica , we have to get him to the hospital . whatever 's wrong with him , we 've got to get it fixed ! monica : this is not fixable . tracy : how do you know that ? ! you 're down here . he 's upstairs . we get him looked at -- he 's fine . monica : he 's not fine , tracy . he 's not going to be fine . i 've tried to prepare you for this . tracy : stop wasting my time talking ! i 'm gon na call an ambulance . monica : put down the phone . tracy : i will not put down the phone . monica : put down the phone . tracy : monica , we ca n't just let him -- monica : edward made his wishes very clear , and you know that . tracy : right . he has a living will . so what ? it 's a piece of paper . i do n't even know who drew it up -- that hack diane miller ? let me call my own lawyer . monica : i think your time would be better spent with your father . tracy : [ sighs ] you 're right ! he 's probably bounced back by now and wants his breakfast tray . somebody should check on him . a.j . : all right . i 'll go with you . tracy : the hell you are ! a.j . : tracy , he 's my family , too . tracy : you 're not part of this family . you 've been gone for how long ? a.j . : exactly . grandfather does n't even know i 'm alive . this could be my last chance . tracy : last chance to what ? to stake your claim in elq or prove you 're not the loser he knows you are ? ! monica : tracy . tracy : you are not seeing my father . monica : you ca n't do this ! tracy : yeah , i can . i 'm his next of kin . i 'm his daughter . i 'm the decider in this situation , and , hmm , let me think . i decide he goes nowhere near my father ! a.j . : please , just think what grandfather would want . tracy : my father has not given a thought to you in years , and why should he ? you are nothing but a crushing disappointment . monica : you stop it ! tracy : in fact , you 're nothing in general to him or to any of us . do n't you dare follow me . alexis : a.j . is gon na screw up inevitably , so you need to just wait it out , okay ? and you -- i 'll see you later . shawn : mm - hmm . [ chuckles ] you know , there 's a reason she makes the big bucks , you know . sonny : yeah , yeah , she 's a shameless overcharger . shawn : look , you do n't want to drive away your son , man . sonny : no , i do n't . but i do n't like to sit on my hands , you know . shawn : what , not your style ? sonny : it just -- it just -- it just feels like one thing after another . now this thing with michael and a.j . -- it 's like it just keeps piling on . shawn : sorry about jason . sonny : thank you . let 's not forget i lost kate , too . shawn : you know , there 's got to be something you can do to get her back . sonny : well , like i said , you know , she 's -- connie worked the system . shawn : wish i could help . sonny : you know what ? screw the system . i think it 's about time i do things my way . todd : let 's just examine this from the worst - case point of view . carly : that 's fun . todd : a.j . does go free . and it turns out he is the scum that everybody says he is -- carly : it turns out . todd : -- michael will figure that out on his own . carly : how wise and curiously restrained of you . todd : i 'm a curious guy . carly : can i ask you a question ? todd : i think you just did . carly : what if someone like a.j . tried to lure your children away ? todd : oh , that 's easy . i 'd kill him . happened to me -- victor . victor jr . they 're both juniors . they have that in common . carly : maybe i need to take a page out of your book . todd : oh , you 're gon na kill the guy ? carly : worked for you . a.j . : this house , this -- town . i mean , i just -- i do n't know . i could n't even imagine it without him in it . monica : neither can i . look , uh -- tracy would not have a fit , not around edward , so -- if you feel that you should go up and see him , go on . a.j . : i just want to do what 's best for grandfather . tracy : how is he ? still unresponsive . i 'm sorry . tracy : uh -- would you leave us alone ? okay , daddy , you rest . you rest . you take as much time as you need . you 're gon na feel a lot better when you wake up . mcbain : i do n't stand in for anyone , sam . sam : i am sorry you ca n't be with your son , but that does n't mean you get to borrow mine . mcbain : that 's not what i 'm doing . sam : it 's just , jason would hate this . he would n't want you here , and he definitely would n't want you spending time with his son . mcbain : i see that i 've upset you . i 'll go . sam : no ! do n't do that . do n't . i 'm the one who 's kicking you out right now . mcbain : okay . sam : concentrate on your own family , john . leave mine alone . [ cell phone rings ] sam : hello ? a.j . : hey , sam . it 's a.j . sam : look , i ca n't deal with this right now . a.j . : listen , i 'm sorry if it 's a bad time , but there 's something you need to know . tracy : i do n't want you to worry about anything , daddy . i have everything under control . [ sniffles ] do n't laugh . elq shares went way up today . i told you i could run a company .

[ voice breaking ] your company 's fine . you family is fine . so nothing -- is gon na upset you today . nothing . patrick : the funeral seemed unreal . it 's like it could n't possibly be happening . i just wanted to get out of there . i wanted to run away . i did n't want to be around anybody . even though everybody meant well , it 's just it meant that -- robin was really gone . i 'm telling you , robert , i could n't have made it without emma . robert : cherish your daughter , patrick . spend every single moment you can with her . patrick : believe me . robert : if you ever got to chose between career and a child , you always chose the child . you do n't ever want to be one of these people that turns up late with nothing to offer but apologies . patrick : robin was incredibly proud of you . she thought you could do anything . your granddaughter does , too . robert : [ chuckles ] she does ? [ both chuckle ] patrick : she has no idea what a spy is , but she thinks it 's pretty cool . she knows your good at it . robert : [ chuckles ] you know , i really want to deliver that present to emma in person , if that 's okay . patrick : of course . her school is on maple just past third . i 'll call and tell them you 're coming . she 'll be very excited to see you . robert : thank you . patrick : come here . alexis : okay , i 'll check on that when i get back to the office . okay . thanks . mcbain : how you doing , miss davis ? alexis : oh ! hi . hey , what did i say about that ? mcbain : do n't do it , alexis . alexis : thank you . much better . and to answer your question , i 'm fine . much better than my daughter . i 'm very worried about sam . you know , she 's in complete denial about jason . mcbain : i just saw her . alexis : you did ? oh . good . she wo n't talk to me or her sisters . mcbain : i think i just got added to that list . shawn : do i even want to know what you 're thinking ? sonny : i ca n't stand by while kate goes deeper into connie or whatever 's going on there . i got to get her alone . shawn : well , do you really think you can get through to her ? sonny : connie 's not the host . i do n't care what she sold to the judge . when i 'm with kate , i can feel kate just fighting to get out . and she wants my help to do it . so -- normally i 'd have jason , you know , to take care of things . shawn : i mean , is there anyone else ? sonny : that depends . what about you ? todd : you 're not gon na kill a.j . carly : what if it 's the only way to get him out of our lives ? stop doing that . todd : okay . i 'm sure there 's another way . carly : like what ? todd : i do n't know . i 'll think of something . carly : why are n't you backing me on this ? todd : carly , i do n't want you to kill a.j . if you kill a.j . , you 'll get caught , you 'll go to prison for the rest of your life , and i wo n't have a friend that i do n't have sex with , and i wo n't have anyone to talk to or watch movies with ... or call if i ever get into trouble . if you went to prison for the rest of your life , i 'd miss you . carly : you would ? todd : yeah . i would . [ clatter ] connie : oh , uh -- [ clears throat ] michael : what happened ? a.j . : um , i do n't -- i do n't know . mom could probably tell you better than i can . but you know what ? i just know he 'd want to see you . and i know he 'd want to meet danny . sam : edward loved jason very much . michael : i ca n't believe this is happening . sam : are you ready ? starr : you know , go . um , i 'll wait for you down here . michael : [ sighs ] okay . you coming ? a.j . : uh , no . tracy does n't really want me up there . michael : you 're his family , too . a.j . : listen to me . you 're the one he needs to see . i want you to go up there , and i want you to tell him what he means to you . michael : okay , i 'll tell him for the both of us . a.j . : okay . tracy : you look better already , daddy . color 's coming back in your cheeks . what do the doctors know , anyway ?

[ crying ] please do n't go ! carly : well , now we can add `` spy `` to `` conniving skank . `` connie : seriously , do n't flatter yourself . todd : i do n't think she was . i 'm pretty sure that was an insult . connie : yeah . i just wanted your opinion on something . come in , please . what do you think about this new number , huh ? next issue 's cover , baby ! yeah . you know what they say . sex sells . todd : i 'm sure it does . carly , can we go outside now -- connie : i really ca n't wait to take this home and have a little test - drive with my hubby . but do you think he prefers black or red ? [ chuckles ] what am i talking about ? i know exactly what he prefers . nothing at all . carly : i have had it with you ! connie : ow ! ow ! shawn : you want me to help you with your connie problem . now , you do realize i 'm out of the business . sonny : you did n't miss a beat when you took down jerry . shawn : old reflexes die hard . sonny : but that 's what i 'm talking about . you still got it in you . and , you know , you used to work for me . shawn : oh , yeah . and you hated every minute . sonny : well , that was different , you know . now i know what you 're made out of . shawn : look , i run a diner , sonny , you know . sonny : you gon na tell me you 're not bored ? shawn : what exactly are you asking me to do ? alexis : did you and sam get into a fight ? mcbain : i 'm not sure what happened . alexis : that bad ? mcbain : she 's putting distance between us . she told me to focus on my life , not hers . maybe she 's right . sam : hi . monica : oh . h - how -- sam : i hope it 's okay we 're here . monica : no , it 's fine . how did you know to come ? michael : a.j . called us . monica : well , i 'm sure edward is going to be delighted to see his great grandson . and you . and you . michael : can he hear us ? monica : i believe he can . and you should , too . i 'll give you some time . sam : thank you . michael : [ sighs ] i do n't know where to start . look , i know we have n't always been close . but i admire you so much , great grandfather . and everything that you do is out of love . i did n't -- always understand that , but i do now . [ sighs ] my last name is n't quartermaine , and i did n't end up working at elq , but you -- made me feel like a part of this family anyway . just , thank you for that . for all of it . [ smooches ] [ sniffles ] i love you . and i 'll never forget you . mcbain : do n't really sleep anymore , you know ? i stay up at night , and i stare into the dark . and i time out how long it would take to get from here to llanview and how fast i can get in and out of wherever natalie 's living . alexis : please do n't . mcbain : and then i tell myself , `` they would find you , and they would take liam away , they 'd put you in jail , and you would never see him again . `` so i do n't drive to llanview . and i sit in the dark some more , and i stare at his photo . and i wait to hear back from you about progress in my case , but you do n't call , which leads me to believe there is n't any . alexis : look , as you know , buchanan enterprises has an endless supply of lawyers and money , and my guess is they 're trying to keep this tied up in court as long as possible in the hopes of wearing you down . mcbain : and wiping me out . alexis : neither of which will happen if i have anything to do with it . mcbain : speaking of money , i 'm not dodging the fact that i owe you a fair amount . alexis : i know , and i do n't think you 're dodging anything . mcbain : it 's just -- times are a little tough right now . alexis : how tough , john ? do you have an income at all ? because if this thing does go to trial , we 're gon na have to show the court that you can provide for your son . sam : i would like you to meet someone . this is your great grandson , daniel edward . danny , can you say hi ? huh ? i wish you could see him . jason named him after you , and i thought it was perfect . they 're so much alike , you know . danny has big , blue eyes , and he 's so sweet , and he 's so calm , just like jason . i mean , he would be , because jason is danny 's biological father . that 's right . love won out . we 're gon na make you proud . i 'm gon na raise this family . you 're gon na be proud . starr : you know , that was really nice of you to -- to call michael and sam -- let them know about -- a.j . : i know grandfather would have wanted it that way , and i wanted to give them both a last chance to see him , you know , to , um -- tell him all the stuff that maybe they wanted to say . starr : do you know what you would say ? a.j . : yeah . yeah , i would say , um -- i 'm sorry -- for my drinking and , uh -- for being greedy -- [ sighs ] -- for always being so jealous of jason -- and for , uh , being a coward . see , i could never stand up to him the way that jason did or even ned . i think most of all , if i had one last moment with him , i 'd say , `` look at me . i mean , really look at me , 'cause i think you 'd like what you see . `` and , um -- you know , it 's funny , 'cause he was -- he was always begging me to change , always telling me to get my head screwed on straight . and now that i actually have and now that i 'm -- determined to try and make things right -- he 's -- he 's never gon na know . tracy : a.j -- hurry . carly : sick of you ! i am so sick of you ! todd : this would be so hot if you two were in bikinis in a big vat of jello , but you 're not . i 'm feeling a little left out . connie : you better tell your girlfriend to watch it . carly : [ chuckles ] connie : i 'm out of here . carly : go ! please . go . todd : that 's it ? that 's your work day ? it 's a hell of a work day . it 's like 10 : 00 a.m . connie : yeah , well , it 's crimson related , all right ? i 'm gon na try the merchandise on at home . i 'm sure johnny will love that . todd : hey ! connie : i 'm out . todd : yeah . connie : psycho ! carly : [ laughs ] todd : what ? carly : you 're sure there is no way , absolutely nothing you can do -- todd : we 're stuck with her . connie : what the hell you grinning at ? [ cell phone beeps ] todd : do n't let her get to you . carly : she 's just a distraction , you know . a place to put my anger because i ca n't beat the hell out of a.j . todd : you 're not gon na lose your son . carly : you do n't know that . todd : michael 's not going anywhere , and you 're a terrific mother . carly : i feel like i was right here . you know , last summer , michael went to work for elq , and i was so afraid the quartermaines were gon na suck him in and they were gon na poison him against me . todd : and what happened ? nothing , right ? carly : right . todd : he 'll come around . carly : what if he does n't ? todd : cross that bridge when we get to it . monica : i am so glad that edward got to see the baby . thank you for bringing him . sam : yes , of course . it was amazing , was n't it ? i mean , he just reached out and touched him . monica : it was just like he knew he was there . sam : i guess you heard , then , huh , about jason . monica : yes . i heard that jason is this miracle baby 's father . sam : i 'm so sorry for not telling you sooner . monica : oh , that 's okay . that 's okay . i know it would n't have made any difference to jason . but it 's something that i have prayed for . sam : me too . i just -- i really wish jason was here to say goodbye . monica : me too . sam : thank you . alexis : so , what 's the status of your job back in llanview ? mcbain : what job ? it 's complicated . alexis : [ sighs ] not what i wanted to hear . mcbain : i know . clint buchanan 's brother bo is the police commissioner . he 's a good friend . but clint has a lot of influence on the mayor , and he 's threatened bo 's position if i 'm put back on the force . alexis : he 's threatening his own brother . mcbain : that 's how much the guy likes me . alexis : guess so . mcbain : bo said , you know , ignore him , that he would take the heat . but i wo n't put bo in that position . alexis : okay . so , uh , you need to find a job , and you need to find one fast . mcbain : i 'm on it . alexis : good . and selfishly , i hope it is in port charles . because whether sam knows it or not , i think she needs you . michael : i , uh -- i saw a.j . when i was coming down the stairs . thank you . i know it means a lot to a.j . that he could see edward . tracy : how is my father ? sam : he held out his hand and danny grabbed his finger . tracy : [ chuckles ] i knew it . do n't count daddy out yet . a.j . : um , tracy said it would be okay if i came in . monica : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , a.j . he 's gone . tracy : w - what do you mean `` gone `` ? he ca n't be gone . tell her . he moved his hand . monica : i was there , tracy . tracy : well , but that means that -- [ voice breaking ] oh , monica , it 's not possible . [ sighs ] no . a.j . : [ sniffles ] [ sniffling ] monica : but edward was with us to the end . he spoke . it was just one word . but it was clear as a bell . tracy : what did he say ? monica : `` lila . `` [ baby fusses ]

are you kidding me ? franco : i 'm wearing shoes . nina : no . no . i - i am a married woman . franco : take it easy . nina : no , i 'm not gon na take it easy . here . here . get up , up , up . just -- i - i just -- maybe your relationship with -- with carly has tanked , but my relationship with silas is going strong , and i do n't think that he would appreciate me being in bed and sleeping with another man . franco : you did not sleep with another man . nina : come on . you know what i mean . just ... shh . sleeping angel . she 's an angel . i 'm the mother of his child . ava : `` ava jerome has been implicated in the murder of constanza falconeri . ms. jerome had been receiving medical treatment at general hospital following the birth of her daughter but fled the facility before she could be arrested . `` oh , no , no , no , no , no . no , no , no , no . silas can not see this . not before i make my next move . silas : everything okay ? olivia : ava killed my cousin , and do n't even try to deny it , julian . it 's all over the news . julian : i 'm sorry , olivia . olivia : you 're sorry ? my cousin 's dead ! ava killed her to protect your true identity . what a pathetic joke that is , considering we all knew exactly who you were about 10 seconds later . so just spit it out ! where the hell is ava ? ! julian : [ sighs ] i do n't know . olivia : stop lying . she murdered someone for you ! you must have helped her escape ! that 's -- that 's what all you mob geniuses do . you just keep covering every time another body turns up . not to mention why the hell else would the cops have you in here ? julian : commissioner also believes i 'm covering for ava . but i 'm telling you , i do n't know where my sister is . olivia : but you knew about connie . julian : no . olivia : oh , give me a break , julian . julian : i did n't . i had no idea that ava shot her , and i certainly did n't know that she did it to cover my secret . the only person that i knew that ava shot ... was you . larry : oh , hello , tracy . you look absolutely smashing . tracy : what 's with the key , larry ? larry : oh , nothing of consequence . it 's the key to the liquor cabinet in the butler 's pantry . as a matter of fact , i think that hobson is trying to wean me from the source . tracy : her name 's not hobson . larry : oh , i 'm sorry . uh , uh , uh , dobson . tracy : alice . larry : who is alice ? tracy : the housekeeper . larry : if you say so . and if you 'll excuse me now , i have an important meeting to get to . tracy : what kind of meeting ? larry : it 's more like an appointment , actually . tracy : with whom ? larry : it 's with my dentist . you know how keen i am on oral hygiene . tracy : no , i do n't . larry : well , it 's extremely important to keep the choppers in good shape . tracy : while i would ordinarily encourage any activity that would render you mute , for today , your oral hygiene must wait . larry : and why is that ? tracy : we 're having a family breakfast . larry : [ sighs ] lulu : you heard larry on the phone with jerry jacks talking about his luke spencer problem ? patrick : and unfortunately , we did n't get anything more than that . sam : what ? patrick : hmm ? sam : um , i think we got a lot -- a lot more . patrick : right . sorry . we heard larry say that he 's going to a safe - deposit box first thing in the morning . sam : yes . patrick : actually , `` their `` safe - deposit box , as in his and jerry 's , at port charles savings . sam : and ? patrick : and that 's it . that 's all we got . sam : excuse him . i made a copy of the key . lulu : you stole the key to larry ashton 's safe - deposit box ? sam : eh . in a sense . patrick : yeah , apparently , uh , silly putty 's not just for kids anymore . sam : [ clears throat ] lulu : what ? sam : it 's a long story . the point is , now we have access . patrick : but the bank does n't open for another hour . lulu : that 's the least of your problems . if larry 's gon na be there when it opens , are n't you gon na run into him ? sam : well , that 's where you come in . we were kind of hoping that maybe you could head over to the quartermaines and keep him busy . ned : father , this is alexis davis , the woman i 'm seeing . larry : enchanté . alexis : oh . thank you . larry : that 's my boy , sneaking beautiful ladies past your old dad . now , listen , if you ever need -- if you ever have a little bit more than you can handle , i 'll lend you a hand , okay ? alexis : oh , my . ned : alexis did n't spend the night . larry : oh . ned : i invited her to breakfast . gives us a chance to get to know one another . larry : i wholeheartedly agree with that . now , listen , i 've been trying to tell your mother , i have a dental appointment that i have to get to , so i 'm gon na have to -- ned : really ? you already have a dentist ? does that mean you 'll be putting down roots ? alexis : not the dental kind . [ larry and alexis laugh ] alexis : that 's funny . you know , roots . larry : she is a keeper , ned . ned : change the appointment . your teeth look fabulous . which , for a brit , that 's saying something . and besides , uh , you owe me . larry : oh , yeah ? ned : all those years i spent stashed away at boarding school . larry : ah . ned : come on , pop . i insist . olivia : what are you talking about ? your sister shot me ? julian : last year at the metro court , the mystery gunman -- olivia : yeah , i remember being hit by the bullet , thank you . julian : okay . ava was the one who did it . olivia : oh , my god . julian : ava was acting alone . i had nothing to do with it , olivia . olivia : but you knew . and you kept it quiet . julian : yeah , but your cousin 's death is different . she did n't confide in me in that . she kept that information under lock and key . [ door buzzes ] olivia : [ sighs ] julian : and i do n't blame you . well , it 's all right . you 're in good company . no one does . lucas : i believe you . ava : no . everything 's not okay . i - i was hoping for some news about nina and franco . silas : nothing ? ava : no , nothing . those two maniacs are still out there with my daughter . nina : [ sighs ] can you believe what a good eater she is ? she finished all four ounces . silas is missing this . he 's missing all of this . have you figured something out yet ? because , um , i know i ca n't call silas because the -- the police are looking for me to arrest me for what i did to my mom , and ... she deserved it . franco : you said that . i know . nina : but she did . she deserved it . so you said that you were gon na come up with a plan . have you come up with a plan ? franco : yeah . i did . nina : oh ! yay . franco : yay . nina : yeah . franco : nina , uh ... [ clears throat ] okay , the first step of the plan is that you face reality . nina : what -- what ? franco : i need you to take a look at something , okay ? nina : okay . franco : read this . anna : what are you babbling on about ? dr. obrecht : i am simply suggesting you savor your last days of freedom . before you know it , you 'll have to answer for what you did . anna : oh , god . can you just be straightforward for once ? i do n't know what you 're talking about . dr. obrecht : ask and you shall receive . you killed cesar , so you 're finally going to be punished for it . anna : who 's gon na punish me ? not scott baldwin . he 's not gon na pay credence to your paranoid delusions . come on . let 's go . out . dr. obrecht : i 'm not talking about our deadbeat d.a . anna : well , then who ? who 's gon na prosecute me ? agent sloane : uh , that would be me . anna : agent sloane . i did n't expect to see you again quite so soon . agent sloane : pretty sure i mentioned i was working on an investigation . dr. obrecht : no doubt the commissioner is too focused on her personal situation to pay attention . anna : is this about liesl obrecht ? agent sloane : well , technically , i 'm investigating you , but dr. obrecht is involved , yes . anna : wait . okay . hold on . you 're not listening to -- to anything this lunatic says , are you ? and you ca n't take anything she says seriously . agent sloane : oh , i took it very seriously . and i have my own evidence . you murdered cesar faison , which i 'm now able to pursue thanks to his daughter 's decision to press charges . nikolas : you spoke to agent sloane again ? britt : said i was willing to help him any way i could . nikolas : [ sighs ] britt : you 're mad . nikolas : no . surprised . britt : i know anna 's a friend of yours , but please understand this -- nikolas : thank you . britt : this -- this is n't personal . nikolas : it 's okay . whatever you decided , that 's your prerogative . britt : thank you . nikolas : guess i 'm just , uh , curious , because you were so certain not to cooperate . what changed your mind ? dr. obrecht : then i 'll be forced to tell nikolas that you were working in tandem with spencer when he disappeared last summer . guard : was n't aware you already had a visitor . did n't see your name on the log . did you sign in ? olivia : take it up with my son . detective falconeri . guard : you 've got 30 minutes . lucas : thank you . julian : it 's good to see you . lucas : yeah . it 's good to see you , too . though i have to admit i wish it was in a slightly different location . julian : hmm . only slightly . lucas : yeah . [ chuckles ] how are you ? julian : better now . so , did you really mean what you said ? you , uh , believe that i did n't know anything about what your aunt 's been up to ? lucas : well , you say you did n't , so i 'm choosing to believe you . julian : novel concept . lucas : [ chuckles ] what i ca n't believe is that anna had you locked up for a crime you did n't commit . julian : yeah , well ... the commissioner and i , we have a long history , none of it good . she would pretty much lock me up for anything she could . lucas : it does n't make it right . julian : i know . lucas : i 'm gon na call alexis , see if she can get you out of here . julian : thanks , but , uh , really , i 'm afraid it would just be a wasted effort . alexis and i are done , so she does n't want anything more to do with me . lucas : what ? julian : not until i 'm completely up - front about the people i work with . lucas : well , then that 's what you need to do . alexis : this is delicious . larry : absolutely scrumptious . i shall have to congratulate hobson on her brilliant knowledge of eggs - over - rock - solid . alexis : who 's hobson ? larry : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i mean dobson . both : it 's alice . tracy : your memory is as functional as your liver . larry : well , then , who the blazes is dobson ? alexis : i am . [ sighs ] silas : you 're worried . ava : i 'm terrified . silas : that 's understandable . ava : good , well , i 'm grateful that you find it understandable that i want to find my ... i 'm sorry . silas : do n't be . ava : i am . i do n't want to take any of this out on you . silas : i know . the police are doing everything they can to find your daughter . ava : what if `` everything `` is n't enough ? you know as well as i do the longer nina and franco are gone , the farther away they get , and my baby needs me . she 's so small . she 's so vulnerable . silas : i know she 's safe , ava . ava : [ laughing ] really ? in the hands of two psychotics ? franco may have somehow convinced everybody that he is healed , but i know the truth . i know that that man is a ticking time bomb ! i know that he is capable of terrible things , and now he 's teamed up with your wife , the woman who drugged me , forced me into labor , and then slipped off into oblivion with my daughter ! silas : listen , listen . you need to try and stay calm . ava : i can not ! silas : getting upset is not gon na help anything . just ... try . okay ? ava : okay . well , what will help ? what can i do to help my child ? silas : i get it , you know ? there 's nothing worse than that feeling , being powerless , being helpless , all right , just sitting back and having zero control . ava : exactly . silas : okay . what do you say we do something about it ? how about we call in some reinforcements ? nina : this again ? um ... you 're still trying to convince me that my baby belongs to ava jerome . joke . franco : it 's not a joke . nina : that 's right . it 's not a joke , 'cause jokes are funny . franco : i know this is upsetting to you . nina : i 'm not upset . i 'm fine . not upset . i 'm -- i 'm ... just do n't want to talk about this anymore . franco : i think we need to talk about this . nina : we do n't need to talk about this . franco : nina , it 's time for you to face reality . nina : this is reality . this is reality . 10 fingers and 10 toes . she 's mine . it 's reality . franco : nina , she 's not yours . nina : [ sighs ] stop saying that . stop it . franco : you do n't even really remember , do you ? nina : [ sighs ] remember what ? do n't remember what you 're saying . franco : you desperately wanted a baby , right ? so you went to see a doctor to get the ball rolling , and she gave you some bad news . britt : the tests indicate that you 're already in menopause . you ca n't conceive a child . franco : and you told me that it was gon na be more difficult than you thought . nina : that 's fine . that 's okay , because a lot of people have a hard time conceiving . franco : no , i do n't think that 's what you meant . i - i think that that 's when you decided you were gon na ... that you were gon na take ava 's baby . you went to ava 's when the time was right . ava : morgan , is that you ? i - i was just texting you . nina : no , ava . it 's not morgan . franco : and you injected her with something . nina : we better get on with it , then . ava : no ! nina : can you please ... can you please stop ? franco : it 's okay . it 's gon na be okay . you can do this . nina : stop talking . franco : you can do this . just let yourself remember . nina : no . no . franco : you do remember , do n't you ? you do . you remember . you induced ava 's labor . nina : is that all you got ? come on ! ava : [ grunting ] i am pushing ! franco : you remember that , and you remember that you delivered ava 's baby . [ baby cries ] nina : [ sighs ] it 's a girl . ava : [ cries tearfully ] nina : [ sniffles ] franco : it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's gon na be okay . franco : it 's okay . feels good , right ? it 's ava 's baby . it 's not your baby . nina : i do n't care . i need this baby . i deserve this baby . after everything that silas and i went through , my own child ... physically being ripped out of my womb . i deserve this baby . a child being ripped out of my womb because of this bitch . franco : ava did n't make you have a miscarriage , nina . nina : yeah , maybe she did n't do exactly that , but she put a wedge between me and silas . and if silas and i were strong , he would have never let my mother do what she did to me . this is the baby that we were meant to have . this baby was -- i deserve that baby . i deserve that baby . [ voice breaking ] she 's gon na give me my life back . please . please . listen to me . um , i love silas . i love him , and he loves me . and we 've had our ups and downs , but we 're really going strong now . franco : yeah ? you 're going strong now ? nina : yeah , we are . things are really good . they are . and this baby is gon na make it better . franco : how 's that work ? you need to be honest with yourself at least , nina . does silas still love you ? silas : you 've been lying to me with every breath that you took ! franco : i know that you believe that he does or you believe that you love him enough for the both of you . nina : i care about you . i did this because i love you . franco : but it does n't work like that . i know that . i just went through the same thing with carly , and you helped me through it . you helped me see that i was n't in the relationship with carly that i thought i was . and i was n't in the relationship with carly that i wanted . okay , this is me now returning the favor . the great love that you have for silas in your head , it does n't exist . it was there maybe once a long time ago , but -- but not now . and you need to let it go . you just need to let it go , nina . nina : [ sighs ] franco : it does n't even exist . silas : you love me ? nina : yes . i was trying to save our marriage , silas . i was trying to save us . silas : our marriage is over , nina . nina : [ gasps ] silas : what would you say to us calling sam for some help ? ava : you want to call your ex - girlfriend ? silas : it 's not about that . it 's about us calling a really good private investigator . ava : i thought that you and she were not on the best of terms . silas : we 're not . that should n't matter . there 's a child missing . she 's a mother . i know she would put her personal feelings aside . you know , on top of that , she 's been through something like this , all right ? sam got her child back , and so will you , ava . ava : what are you doing ? silas : i do n't know . i was gon na call her ? ava : no . [ laughs ] no . no , no . [ clears throat ] no . absolutely not . sam : if we can just get a look inside that safe - deposit box , we can finally know what larry 's hiding . patrick : what do you say ? lulu : i 'm in . i 'm gon na head over there right now . sam : lulu , thank you so much . lulu : i 'm gon na do whatever it takes to get answers about my father , no matter what those answers may be . alexis : and that 's how the quartermaine butler dobson was born . larry : i see . i see . so , in effect , you were pretending to be someone you were n't . you were hiding in plain sight . alexis : that 's one way of putting it . larry : that 's most impressive . so , you were , in effect , pursuing your own agenda right under the quartermaines ' noses . nobody was any the wiser . lucas : look , if alexis wants you to be completely honest with her , then be completely honest with her . julian : [ chuckles ] it 's not that simple . lucas : it is if you love her . julian : it 's because i love her that i ca n't be honest with her . lucas : i think we 're talking in circles here . julian : okay , look , i 've got to protect my family . the world i live in , the people i 'm dealing with , i mean , hell , you know . they had you shot . and for what ? because i tried to get out ? lucas : whoa , whoa , whoa , wait . i thought that was all ric lansing . they found the gun in his hotel room . wait , hold on . what are you saying ? somebody else had me shot ? olivia : ned , i got to talk to you . oh , i 'm sorry . sorry . i did n't realize that you , uh , had company . ned : do n't be ridiculous . are -- are you all right ? you look upset . larry : quite upset . why do n't you pull up a chair and tell us all about it ? ned : just ignore him . he 's just my father . olivia : oh . nice to meet you . larry : the pleasure is all mine . olivia : i ... ned : what 's going on ? olivia : well , did you hear that -- that ava is the one that shot connie . ned : not aj . i know . we 're -- we 're well aware of that . um , oh , that 's right . i forgot how that would affect you . are you okay ? olivia : no , i 'm not . now the cops missed the chance to arrest ava . she 's out running around god knows where . alexis : yeah , we heard that on the news . olivia : oh , yeah , did you also hear that ava 's the one that shot me ? ned : what ? olivia : yeah , i just heard all about it from alexis ' ex - boyfriend . alexis : ex - boyfriend ? olivia : yes . julian . he 's in a holding cell at the pcpd on suspicion of aiding and abetting . julian : you 're just gon na have to trust me on this , lucas . the less you know , the better . lucas : okay . julian : [ chuckles ] i wish it was that easy with alexis . lucas : well , can you blame her ? julian : no . but i still ca n't change it . lucas : you can do whatever you want . you know how lucky you are ? do you ? to have that beautiful , amazing , smart woman , and she loves you . julian : yeah . it 's a pretty amazing feeling . lucas : yeah , it is , and i know what it feels like now , too . i finally have that one person in my life that i 'd do anything to hold on to . julian : i take it , uh , things are going well with you and brad ? lucas : i want you to know what that feels like , too . julian : yeah . so do i , but , i mean -- lucas : no . `` but `` nothing . the time is now , julian . come on . unless you want what you have with alexis to go away . julian : of course i do n't , but ... lucas : well , then fight for it . fight for her . julian : you 're right about one thing . the only way to be with her is to tell her everything . lucas : so ... want me to call alexis or not ? britt : honestly ... [ clears throat ] i changed my mind because of you . nikolas : me ? britt : the only family that rivals mine in craziness is yours . nikolas : [ chuckles ] thank you . i 'm flattered . britt : the way that you talk about them , your father and your uncles -- nikolas : do n't forget my grandmother . britt : there 's still that underlying loyalty there , that -- that family bond . nikolas : for better or for worse . mostly worse . britt : still ... you got me thinking , no matter what he 's done , faison is still my father , and i want to know what happened to him . agent sloane : the evidence is extensive . it 's pretty clear . faison is not in steinmauer prison . dr. obrecht : i knew it . you lying scarecrow . agent sloane : which implies that you and robert scorpio committed a huge breach of ethics and took the law into your own hands . dr. obrecht : which is only what i 've been saying this past year . her reign of terror has gone unchecked for far too long . anna : my reign of terror ? agent sloane : you know , my mentor once told me , `` follow the evidence even if you do n't like where it takes you . `` and the evidence says dr. obrecht is right . anna : god , i do n't believe this . dr. obrecht : believe it . agent sloane : no one is above the law . not even anna devane . silas : why do n't you want me to call sam , again ? ava : i 'm scared . and because , as you know , sam has never been what you 'd call a fan of mine . silas : she would still want to help us find your little girl . ava : there 's also the fact that she 's so close with sonny . i 'm sure she knows he 's been looking for me . so what if she tips off his men and -- and tells them where to find me ? silas : i do n't think she would ever do that . ava : but you understand , though , right ? silas : i guess i can see where you 're coming from . ava : thank you . silas : you know , i think we 're pretty desperate here . i - i think you 'd want any help you get . that 's all i was trying to do . ava : then you should be the one to help me , not sam . silas : i 'd do anything to help you find that little girl , but i do not have the resources the cops have or a private investigator has . ava : but you 're looking for nina , right ? we have the same goal . it 's perfect . we 'll find them together . silas : you 're right . i want to find nina , but i would n't even know where to start . ava : we 'll think of something . please . say you 'll come with me . nina : my marriage is over . silas does n't love me . it 's done . franco : i 'm really proud of you . the truth is difficult sometimes . nina : right . i just needed a push , i guess . a big push . franco : you needed a couple of pushes . nina : okay , i needed a couple pushes . i just ... i 'm a tough nut to crack . franco : well , you 're a nut , that 's for sure . it 's all right . i was just kidding around . nina : no , you were n't . franco : i guess i was n't . i 'm kind of a nut myself sometimes . nina : [ sighs ] franco : you okay ? nina : okay , so i just ... do i just tell myself that it 's gon na get better , that life goes on ? franco : it does . and you will . nina : it 'll get better , right ? how ? franco : um ... uh , i do n't really know . i think you just , uh , kind of hang in there , and then ... the pain goes away . nina : i 'm not in pain . i wish i were . i 'm not in any pain . i am ... empty . i 'm like a shell . if i do n't have silas and i ... do n't have the baby , i have nothing . franco : you have me . franco : we 're similar , you know . totally messed up . i 'm on your side . nina : you are ? franco : i am . you stuck by me . i 'll stick by you . right ? you do n't believe me ? nina : i do . franco : what 's next ? what 's the next chapter in the lives of nina and franco ? nina : i do n't know , but it 's gon na be good . franco : right ? nina : [ chuckling ] yes . franco : [ chuckles ] nina : just one little thing . one thing . uh , what are we gon na do about the baby ? ava : please . together , we can find them . i know we can . what do you say ? silas : all right . ava : you -- you mean that ? silas : yeah , i mean it . let 's go find your little girl . ava : thank you . thank you so much . you have no idea how much it means to me that i have someone i can count on . silas : when you want to leave ? ava : um ... what do you say right now ? silas : [ chuckles ] i 'll get the car . larry : well , alexis certainly rushed off after she got that call about her ex- bloke . ned : she did . and you ? olivia : what ? ned : hungry ? olivia : no . ned : you 're in crisis . you got to be hungry . olivia : famished . ned : i knew it . come on . let 's get you a plate . olivia : [ sighs ] ned : [ clears throat ] larry : well , that was lovely . quite lovely . and now i must rush . lulu : you 're not going anywhere . patrick : okay , lulu 's at the quartermaines . larry 's there , and she 's gon na distract him . sam : that 's great . the bank 's about to open . let 's go get some answers . nikolas : makes complete sense that you 'd want to find out the truth about your father , but are you sure you want to do it this way ? anna 's career is on the line . britt : i know . i feel really bad about that . but i also feel like i have no other choice . agent sloane : before i go . anna : a subpoena ? dr. obrecht : she can read . agent sloane : sooner or later , the law applies to everyone . it 's what i was taught . anna : yeah , you were . agent sloane : if i were you , i 'd get myself a lawyer . anna : i do n't need one . and we do n't need to go through these legal proceedings . dr. obrecht : and why is that ? anna : because faison is alive . [ next_on ] nikolas : what is going on here ? lulu : ( to tracy ) i 'm trying to get word to patrick and sam . i have to warn them . liesl : ( to anna ) if you did n't kill cesar , what did you do with him ? spencer : ( to emma ) take a chance on love ! julian : ( to alexis ) i 'll tell you everything .

[ scene_break ] nina : listen , when i was 14 , a greedy developer tried to claim eminent domain to get the south pasture of the stone pond stables . now , i arranged a protest . i did . i got all the riders together , and we staged a sit - down right in front of the bulldozers . and we won -- we won . everybody in bridgehampton covered it -- everybody . so i want you to know that 's what you 're dealing with right now . that 's who you 're dealing with . i will pursue justice until you do the right thing . franco : okay , that 's a great story . i have not heard that story . um , and that 's great , but i 've already signed a confession . so justice has already won . yay , justice . there 's no need for a protest . nina : you confessed to a crime that you did n't commit . you 're trying to stop kiki from circling the drain . does this sound familiar to you -- him confessing to a crime he did n't commit to protect someone he loves ? nathan : [ clears throat ] franco : your sister loves me so much that she 's willing to perjure herself to try and help me , which sounds like a really decent thing to do , but it 's the wrong thing to do . and after we were cleared of all charges in silas ' murder , we had a pact -- we made an agreement that we would try and do good in this world , that we would try and prove to all the people that hate us that we were n't just lunatic crackpots , that we were capable of doing good -- good for other people , not just good for ourselves . and ...

[ scene_break ] jason : tell me what i want to know . helena : in my own time . you 're stalling . helena : no . savoring . it 's a different thing entirely . oh , it 's so tedious , lying here in this bed . doctors obsessing over me , fussing over me . i 'm feeling quite rejuvenated by my new visitors . sam : oh , god . do n't kid yourself , helena . you 're about three breaths away from dying . elizabeth : sam . helena may be incapable of feeling compassion , but you 're not . i mean , look at her . helena : why , thank you , elizabeth . there 's not a selfish bone in that delicate little body of yours , is there ? no deep , dark secrets with you . jason : hey . do n't talk to her . you talk to me . helena : well , if your taste runs to the insipid , it 's easy to understand how you could fall in love with elizabeth all over again , even without your memories to guide you . sam : how much longer are we gon na drag this out ? helena : as long as it amuses me , you guttersnipe . nikolas : grandmother , please . helena : why , nikolas , well , i 'm touched by your -- by your concern . sam : whatever game you and nikolas are playing can wait . can you please tell us what you did to jason ? helena : well , is n't it obvious ? i saved your life . nikolas , darling , could you get me some tea , please ? sam : this is pointless . she 's not gon na tell us anything . helena : oh , try to be gracious . after all , i did save the love of your life . sam : you did n't save his life -- you shattered it . helena : on the contrary . you can blame faison for that . jason : the man who shot me ? helena : and consigned you to a watery grave . before cesar made his move , he confided his plans . oh , thank you , my darling . nikolas : as one does . helena : well , it was all part of some convoluted plan to possess anna devane . [ chuckles ] i wished him well . but i did advise him that removing jason from the game was shortsighted . sam : you knew he was gon na shoot jason . you could have stopped him . helena : why would i do that ? no , when you fell in the water , my associates were there to snatch you up and deliver you to my brother - in - law 's custody . victor was very careful to make sure that you were well cared for while he acquired a means of reviving you . sam : `` acquired , `` meaning what , finding robin and having her find a way to bring him back ? helena : i used you for a while , and now you 're alive because of me . so ...

[ laughs ] that 's funny . franco : really funny . nina : seriously , you 're doing this because i saved you a pointless stay in prison ? franco : was it pointless when i tried to do the same thing for you ? nina : kiki is not me . franco : no , but i love you both . in very different ways , but i do . nina : [ sighs ] franco : and if you ca n't accept that , then maybe you and i need to re - evaluate our relationship . nina : what does that mean ? nathan : kiki , this is detective west . give me a call when you get this message , would you ? it 's important .

[ scene_break ] patrick : [ clears throat ] carly : i have no idea where sam 's head is at right now , and i 'm guessing she does n't , either . patrick : i think i do . i mean , she went there to go help jason regain his memory , so , you know , they can remember the life that they had together . she left danny at monica 's . i 'm just glad that that kid is too young to acknowledge the fact that both of his parents are off risking their lives . carly : okay , that 's who sam is . and she would do the same thing for you that she 's doing for jason , no questions asked . patrick : carly , i would never put her in that position . jason does . he always does . he has no regard . he chases danger , has no regard for the people that he leaves behind that he claims to say that he loves . sam thinks that he 's justified in that action . she thinks that she 's justified in her action . carly : so where did you leave things ? patrick : i got out of her way . i told her i understand why she has to do this . she says that she loves me and that she 's coming back to me , but ... i do n't know . i just do n't know if we 're both kidding ourselves . carly : [ sighs ] [ cell phone rings ] carly : oh . oh . hello ? nathan : carly . hey , it 's nathan west . have you seen morgan lately ? carly : no , why ? is he in trouble ? nathan : no , no , no , no , no . i just got to ask him some questions . carly : about what ? nathan : your car accident , actually . carly : morgan does n't know anything about my car accident . and what does it matter ? you have franco in custody , right ? nathan : not anymore .

sam and elizabeth arrive at cassadine island to join jake , nikolas and helena . it appears helena is on her death bed while sam and jason ( although not elizabeth nor nikolas ) probe her about giving them answers about how and why she did what she did to jason . she evades the question telling him it was faison and not herself who attempted to kill jason whereas she saved jason 's life . both sam and jason wonder why she caused what happened to him . she reveals she might have the answer to that but does not tell them what that answer is . meanwhile , back in port charles , although nathan wants to believe that franco ran carly off the road halloween night , he does a search to prove that nina is correct that franco was not driving the car . kiki was . franco wants to take the rap for kiki but nina and nathan but tell him they wo n't let him do that . carly goes to the station to learn , although she does not believe , that franco has been wrongfully accused of the crime and kiki hit her and left the scene of the crime . meanwhile , morgan wants to protect kiki and takes her off to a private cabin . she tells him they can only hide so long and he 's being unrealistic to think they can escape the law or that he can abandon his family . as soon as franco calls them and warns them the cops are after kiki , morgan behaves in a `` manic `` , `` bi polar `` mode by believing cops are outside the door when they are not and gets his shot gun ready to take action . meanwhile , epiphany takes sonny to the boxing gym for physical therapy . she motivates him not to let being in a wheelchair prevent him from venting his anger and channeling his energy boxing as he did before his injury . meanwhile , patrick comes by for the same reason sonny is there . sonny knows patrick is upset and needs to take off steam in a similar manner , due to patrick 's own personal stuff involving sam and jason and the whole situation . sonny is able to coach patrick as epiphany has coached him and it seems sonny may be making progress in his recovery .

[ breathes deeply ] so what do you say , ned ? buddy . cousin . truce ? hmm ? ned : seriously ? you think you can show up after all these years and just erase everything you 've done ? a.j . : wow . ned : monica , i just want to apologize for just not making more of an effort to see grandfather . monica : look , we have all chosen different paths , but the bottom line is , we are family . ned : mm - hmm . and some of us regard the family more than others . grandfather , modesty is not one of the virtues you stressed when you trained me for the corporate world . you told me to believe in myself , to grab the opportunities , to take risks , and your advice has never failed me , has it ? edward : of course not . ned : then why should it fail me applied to this ? we can make this work . i have absolute faith and trust in that . monica : if there was ever a time for us to come together , it is right now . i know it would mean a lot to edward if his grandsons got along . tracy : you expect my son to get along with the man that single - handedly killed my father ? tracy : i told you you were gon na kill daddy , and you did . ned : congratulations . a new low . a.j . : tracy , what in god 's name are you talking about ? i had nothing to do with grandfather 's death . tracy : you were the last one in his room . monica : i was the last one in the room , tracy , and by the time you allowed a.j . to go in , it was too late . tracy : there you go again defending the son who belongs in jail . monica : do n't be ridiculous . a.j . : tracy , i understand that you need somebody to blame . ned : do n't patronize my mother ! tracy : thank you , ned . monica : oh , there 's ned , always considerate of his mother 's needs . did you hear about the pathogen scare ? tracy : oh , you are not gon na throw that in his face now . monica : well , i just thought , with the town being moments away from death , it might have rated a -- i do n't know -- a phone call ? alice : miss skye ? and lila rae ! skye : alice . alice : oh , i trust you 're gon na stay for thanksgiving dinner ? tracy : absolutely not . shawn : do n't they pay the nurses at g.h . ? steve : yeah . why ? shawn : yeah , one of them skipped out on her bill . steve : oh . hey , can i see your paper for a second ? shawn : yeah . steve : edward quartermaine . olivia : yeah , the stuff of legends right there . steve : so crazy to think that he 's just gone . olivia : no crazier than thinking he was married to your mother . steve : for a second and a half . just about . olivia : you never told me -- how did that even happen ? it was about the time that he lost his wife , lila . and my mother took advantage of edward 's grief . olivia : shocker . steve : fortunately , he figured out it was all about the money , so he had the thing annulled right away . a lot smarter than me , i have to say that . olivia : what 're you talking about ? steve : i 'm the one who let her out . olivia : honey , that was because the doctors told you it was okay . steve , you 're a good man . you 're the best . all i keep thinking about is poor monica . she loses her son and then her father - in - law , one right after the other . steve : at least she has her other son , a.j . olivia : yeah , and what 's the deal with that ? the guy 's dead , and then , all of a sudden , surprise -- he 's not dead . how does that happen ? steve : because i let it . michael : you 've been a great dad , but i 'm not a kid anymore . you ca n't just say , `` that 's how it is , `` and expect me to take your word . sonny : i do n't . i know you have to figure things out for yourself . michael : yeah , and right now , that means getting to know a.j . , at least seeing him through the trial . sonny : all right , just ... think with your head and keep your guard up . michael : i learned that from you , dad . sonny : you clean up nice . you taking starr out for thanksgiving ? michael : she is in llanview with her mom . sonny : where you headed ? michael : the quartermaines . kind of getting everybody together because of edward . sonny : yeah , yeah . you should go . you should go . michael : what about you ? sonny : i got plans . michael : alexis ? sonny : do n't worry about me . do n't be late . you do n't want to be late , right ? so , happy thanksgiving , buddy . michael : happy thanksgiving , dad . sonny : you know i love you , right ? michael : yeah . i love you , too . sonny : all right . monica : who put you in charge ? tracy : it 's common sense , monica . she 's not a quartermaine . a.j . : well , dad and grandfather disagreed . tracy : and they 're not here , are they . skye : lila rae and i will be at the metro court . monica : no , no , no . you are guests , and you are family . you 'll be staying here . a.j . : good . alice : i second that . tracy : she is not welcome here , monica . a.j . : she 's the one who accused me of murder . tracy : would you just tattoo that on your forehead ? a.j . : why did you even come back ? lila rae : mommy , is everything okay ? skye : oh , yes , my darling . [ sighs ] welcome to the family . [ arguing continues ] tracy : i suppose we should be grateful . monica : oh , really ? for what ? tracy : because we only have to endure one of your criminal sons . skye : i think you could use a nap , and mommy could use an aspirin . [ doorbell rings ] monica : i think she 's just bitter because her other son decided he did n't want to be here . tracy : dillon has a career alice : hey . michael : hey . happy thanksgiving , alice . alice : not so happy . you 'd think they 'd quit fighting just for one minute just for mr. q . michael : [ sighs ] uh , i just graduated high school . i do n't really have anything to contribute . edward : of course you do . you 're a bright young man , and you 're a fast learner , you have instincts , and you 're not afraid . those things will carry you far in this life . michael : look , i 'm gon na tell you the same thing i told my father -- i do n't want any special treatment . edward : well , i 'm sorry . i ca n't guarantee that , because you 're family , and that 's a built - in special treatment . but it also brings burdens of responsibility and expectations . but your coming aboard , it just means everything to me . [ muffled arguing ] [ arguing continues ] michael : hey ! hey ! what 're you doing ? are n't we here for great - grandfather ? monica : yes . michael : yeah , so then why do n't we start acting like it ? heather : oh , edward . you thought of everything . skye : oh , excuse me . do you work here ? can you tell me where i can get an as -- heather ? heather : well , well . look what the cat dragged in . olivia : so you knew a.j . quartermaine was still alive ? steve : not at first . the guy flatlined , liv . i called time of death . it was over . olivia : so , what ? what happened ? steve : i went back into the room , and there he was , wide awake . monica was there when he miraculously came to . olivia : and , what -- she asked you to keep it a secret ? steve : she begged me , said he 'd go to prison if anyone knew he 'd survived . i backed up her story . olivia : you faked an autopsy ? steve : you 're the first person i 've told . olivia : i 'm really glad you did . steve : really ? because you look like you 're about to throw up . olivia : i 'm sorry . i 'm just -- i 'm trying to take this all in here . do you have anything else that you 'd like to share with me ? because this would be a really good time to do it . steve : that 's the last thing . olivia : well , i guess i got that to be thankful for . steve : you 're upset . olivia : no , i ... i just -- i pray that this does n't come back to haunt us . steve : from your lips . skye : what is this ? heather : edward was my ex - husband . it may have been brief , but it mattered to me . skye : i mean , what are you doing here ? you 're supposed to be in ferncliff . how did you get out ? heather : i 'm resourceful . you should remember that , blaze . was n't that luke 's little pet name for you ? skye : that was a long time ago . heather : so you 're blaze , and anna 's slim , and i was always just plain heather . why did n't i merit a nickname from luke ? skye : i do n't know . i guess you 'll have to ask him . in fact , why do n't you go call him right now , and i 'm gon na go join the others ? heather : what ? so you can call the men with the white coats ? i do n't think so . nobody 's going anywhere . michael : are you forgetting how much family meant to edward ? how he wanted to bring us all together , especially today ? i think we owe it to his memory to make him proud of us . a.j . : my son 's right . monica : thank you for reminding us what this is supposed to be . ned : we can do this . no , we will do this . we will make this the thanksgiving grandfather always wanted . skye : aah ! aah ! heather : i 'm getting out of here now . and guess what -- you get to come with me ! ned : no , no , no , no , she 's not ! a.j . : let her go ! heather : none of you make a move in this direction , not if you want to see skye alive . tracy : well ... what ? ned : let skye go , and just walk away . i swear , we will not follow you . heather : right . like i 'm gon na trust a quartermaine . good - bye , all ! gobble , gobble !

[ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] patrick : elizabeth . hey . [ knocks on desk ] elizabeth : hey . patrick : hi . elizabeth : hi . patrick : you all right ? elizabeth : yeah , it 's just been a really long day . what about you ? why are n't you out doing wedding things ? patrick : i 'm actually on my way to the metro court as we speak , and , yeah , the wedding planner is about to kill me . elizabeth : do n't want to keep felix waiting . you 'd better go . patrick : well , i 'm glad i ran into you . i did n't expect to . i thought you 'd still be at court . how did it go ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] i really hated testifying against aj . [ scene_break ] scott : as manager of the metro court , i 'm gon na need you to authenticate that this originated from there . diane : objection , your honor . what is the prosecution referring to ? scott : security footage that provides frame - by - frame account of the night that aj quartermaine murdered connie falconeri . diane : objection , your honor . the defense was never made aware of the existence of this footage . scott : if it pleases your honor , here 's the footage . now you 're aware of it . diane : your honor ! judge chua : let 's see where this goes , ms. miller . the minutes we waste today may save us hours in the days to come . mr. district attorney , make this worth the court 's while . scott : yes , i will , your honor . can you confirm that this is the security footage from august 23 , 2013 ? olivia : it looks like it to me . scott : and it will look like it to the jury , as well . diane : objection ! the council is testifying . scott : your honor , this will bring this trial to a speedy end , justice will be served , and the victim 's loved ones will be at ease . diane : move to strike ! judge chua : mr. baldwin . the district attorney 's comment will be stricken from the record . scott : i apologize for my passion . judge chua : let it happen again , and it 'll be a contempt charge . scott : understood . well ... let 's go to the video tape . diane : you can not admit a piece of evidence that was held back in discovery . scott : my office just came into possession of this footage . diane : well , how fortuitous for you ! especially since my team requested copies of the metro court footage of the night in question months ago , and we were told by the management that that footage had been lost . so , of course , that begs the question -- scott : my staff was a little more persistent . i went back to the good people at the metro court , had them take another look . monica : yes , and miraculously , the tape showed up . judge chua : ms. falconeri , why was the defense not granted access to the security footage while the prosecution was ? olivia : there was a small flood in our security office the night of connie 's murder . a number of our records were either lost or misplaced in the cleanup , including those . scott : there you have it . diane : your honor , i hope you find the prosecution 's assertion just as flimsy as i do . i move that you do not allow this into evidence . sonny : a woman 's dead , okay ? why ca n't -- if you got evidence that proves who did it , why ca n't you use it ? judge chua : order . mr. corinthos , i respect your bereavement , but you must sit down . scott : mr. corinthos is right . in the sake of justice , the jury should see the security footage to show what happened the night of connie falconeri 's murder . show that the defendant is a cold - blooded murderer . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : aj thought i was there to support him . he did n't realize that the prosecution had subpoenaed me . patrick : so , wait , diane did n't warn him ? elizabeth : oh , i 'm sure she did . but knowing aj , he did n't believe her or he just heard what he wanted to hear . patrick : that probably did n't go well . elizabeth : i had to tell the truth . but i had to explain that even though aj said he wanted to hurt her , he was just blowing off steam . patrick : so how did that go over ? elizabeth : the damage was already done . i 'm afraid i might have sent aj away for the rest of his life . [ scene_break ] felix : carlos is still dogging you ? sabrina : yeah . felix : damn , girl . what kind of alien pheromones are you giving off that this guy ca n't get enough of you , and how can i bottle some of it for myself ? sabrina : are you kidding me ? carlos is nothing but trouble . you should want to get as close to him as i want to get close to brad . felix : [ sighs ] maybe i should take a crack at carlos . sabrina : absolutely not . he 's working for that mob boss who 's all over the front page of the paper , julian jerome . felix : so if he 's a mobster , that means he really is ... sabrina : oh , my god . do n't . felix : ... carlos danger ! i 'm sorry . sabrina : wow . felix : i could n't resist . sabrina : well , hopefully you can resist the urge to confront him , because i do n't want you or patrick or anybody i care about anywhere near carlos . i 'll just -- i 'll deal with him myself . felix : do n't deal with him at all . he 's just doing this for attention , so why let him ? just show him how unimportant he is , and he 'll go away . sabrina : i do n't think that 's gon na work , because every single time i shut carlos down , he comes back with something crazier and bigger than before . felix : so , what 's crazy carlos up to now ? sabrina : he 's saying robin is alive . [ scene_break ] nikolas : sabrina must have sent my and britt 's invitation by carrier pigeon . how 'd you come by yours ? robin : i swiped it . nikolas : ooh , and you used to be such a good little girl . robin : what was i supposed to do , nikolas ? i mean , there was an invitation right there sitting in front of me to my husband 's wedding . nikolas : well , i hope that its intended recipient is n't missing it . any idea who it 's for ? robin : yeah , someone named ellie trout . sabrina left it in the lab for her . nikolas : hopefully not while you were there . robin : oh , yeah . while i was there . i had to cram myself into this teeny , tiny little place underneath the desk . nikolas : she could have seen you . robin : yeah . you know , it 's lucky patrick did n't see me , either . nikolas : what do you mean ? patrick came into the lab while you were hiding ? robin : yes . and from what i can tell , he 's still really into the whole pda thing . nikolas : well , at least i know why you 've been so snippy all day . robin : patrick and sabrina were very ... sweet to each other . i mean , what couple is n't on the eve of their wedding ? nikolas : i 'm really sorry . i know this has been hell for you . robin : [ scoffs ] you got that right . nikolas : but considering what 's at stake here , it 's really a good thing that they did n't discover you . robin : yeah , well ... at least they did n't . [ scene_break ] ava : your ex is marrying patrick drake , is n't she ? i thought his wife died a couple of years ago . carlos : yeah , well , that 's the general consensus . but dr. robin scorpio - drake is very much alive . ava : well [ chuckles ] julian came back from the dead , so to speak . what 's one more ? carlos : yeah . exactly . ava : mm . but , still , you know , everyone in town , including her husband , thinks that robin is very much dead . so what is it that makes you suspect that she still walks among the living ? carlos : i saw her with my own two eyes . robin 's alive ? ! [ scene_break ] sabrina : oh , my god . indoor voice ! felix : carlos said that robin is alive ? sabrina : yes ! just keep it down . felix : okay , when and where exactly did carlos see the late scorpio - drake ? sabrina : yesterday at the hospital in the lab . i guess he was looking for me , and he says that he found robin instead . felix : well , how would he even know what she looks like ? sabrina : from a picture that he saw at patrick 's house on one of his many uninvited visits . felix : honey , carlos did not see robin . in the flesh , anyway . but maybe , just maybe , he saw her in a more ... supernatural form ? sabrina : wait . are you saying that carlos saw robin 's ghost ? felix : why not ? sabrina : because ghosts are n't real . felix : what if they were ? i mean , where would robin 's spirit be hanging out ? at the hospital , in the lab , where she died . sabrina : what ? ! felix : what ? it could happen . and it 's a hell of a lot more believable than her coming back from the dead like a zombie . [ scene_break ] nikolas : who is this carlos ? robin : he 's sabrina 's ex . and he 's still in love with her in that `` i really do n't want her to marry patrick drake `` kind of way . nikolas : what was he doing in the lab ? robin : someone told him that sabrina was in there , and he found me instead . nikolas : well , why did n't you tell me about this last night ? robin : because i was still a little freaked out , and it 's fine . i mean , carlos has no idea who i am . nikolas : you 're sure ? you 're absolutely positive ? robin : [ sighs ] i do n't know . he did mention something about me looking familiar . nikolas : oh , robin , he could have seen pictures of you . robin : nikolas , it 's done , okay ? we ca n't make him un - see me , so now all we can do is cross our fingers and hope that he does n't put it all together . [ scene_break ] carlos : robin tells me that her name is epiphany johnson . well , then i ran into a picture of the real epiphany , and that 's when i realized that robin was lying about who she was . and then i remembered where i had seen her before . in a picture at patrick 's house . ava : so , did you go back and confront her ? carlos : [ sighs ] i tried ! but by the time i got there , she had already cleared out . ava : so , you have no proof , then . carlos : you do n't think it 's possible ? ava : i think it 's possible that you saw this robin . i think it 's possible that your mind is playing tricks . i mean , you 've been wanting to get back together with sabrina for how long now ? carlos : years . ever since we broke up . ava : right . now you 've come all the way to port charles to win her back , only to discover that she 's moved on , with a man who not too long ago lost his wife . and now right before their wedding , this not - so - dead wife conveniently appears to you out of the blue . carlos : yeah , sabrina did n't believe me , either . i mean , i barely believe it myself . who would ? who would ? [ scene_break ] patrick : look , if aj spends the rest of his life in prison , that 's his fault . a woman is dead , right ? elizabeth : yeah , but i do n't know that he killed her . patrick : but you told the truth on the stand ? elizabeth : yes . patrick : then you did your job . now the jury has to do theirs and diane has to do hers . you ca n't defend aj , and he needs to understand that . elizabeth : yeah , but i do n't know that he does . patrick : [ sighs ] well , then , that is on him . elizabeth : but you should have seen him when i was on the stand . he looked miserable . like he knew that this is how his life was going to end -- alone . patrick : but he 's not alone . i mean , he has his mother , he has michael . elizabeth : and me , right ? patrick : well ... elizabeth : no . no , i ca n't do it anymore . whatever happened between aj and me , it 's over . [ scene_break ] judge chua : i 'm going to dismiss the jury while we view the recordings . we 'll see what they contain without contaminating the jury . after which , i 'll rule on the admissibility . scott : uh , your honor , now it 's my turn to object . judge chua : overruled . scott : you have n't heard my grounds . judge chua : you do n't have any . ms. miller , how about you ? any objections ? diane : none whatsoever , your honor . in fact , this will be quite a time - saver for the defense . judge chua : thank you . now , bailiff . kiki : are you sure you want to stay here for this ? michael : yeah , no , i have to be here . for both my fathers . kiki : okay . you be here for your fathers , and i 'll be here for you . judge chua : mr. district attorney , it 's your show . olivia : do you want to get out of here ? sonny : why would i want to do that ? olivia : because we do n't know what 's on that tape . sonny , what if it 's connie ? we do n't know that it 's not her getting murdered -- sonny : you want to go ? 'cause if you want to go , go ahead , 'cause i 'm gon na stay here . it 's something i need to do for connie . olivia : sonny , i do n't think connie would want you watching her in a snuff film . sonny : it 's not about -- it 's more than that . i just -- i just feel that connie 's not gon na be at rest until i know what happened . until that son of a bitch is locked away for life . [ scene_break ] ava : you already told sabrina that you saw robin ? carlos : i ran into sabrina , literally , right after it all happened . what was i supposed to do ? ava : you 're supposed to keep your mouth shut and come to me , and we think together . we think and we come up with a way for you to break the news . carlos : there 's no time . sabrina is getting married tomorrow to a married man . now , even if i did n't want her for myself , she deserves to know . ava : well , i do n't blame you for having impulse to act . but i do n't blame sabrina for being skeptical , either . carlos : it 's beyond skepticism . she wo n't even listen to me . ava : well , then , maybe sabrina is n't the person you should be talking to . you want results ? you want someone to take to heart what you 're saying ? then you bypass sabrina altogether . you go to the husband , and you tell patrick his wife is alive . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i 'll keep an eye on the carlos situation , but if he does realize who you are , he 's not just gon na sit on his hands and do nothing if he 's in love with sabrina the way you say . robin : oh , he is . but she does n't want to have anything to do with him , because she 's in love with my husband ... who 's apparently in love with her ... who are getting married tomorrow , and then once they exchange vows and rings , well , that 'll be it . nikolas : robin , the only reason the wedding is still happening is 'cause patrick does n't realize you 're still alive . but once you get the cure for jerry , we 'll trade it in for your parents , and you 'll be in the clear . you can go to patrick and tell him everything . robin : nikolas , it does n't matter what i tell him . he 's still fallen in love with another woman . [ scene_break ] sabrina : as much as i 'd like to chalk up carlos ' claim to a visit from the spirit world , it makes more sense that he 's just lying to me to get at patrick . i mean , he tried it before with patrick 's wedding ring , and then he tried it again with that stupid prank phone call that he staged from robin . he 's just trying to stop this wedding . felix : he 'll have to try harder than that , 'cause the only thing that 's gon na scuttle these nuptials is the seating arrangement . if epiphany and i are sitting too close , it 's gon na be clash of the titans . sabrina : [ laughs ] felix : speaking of arrangements , can i escort you to the restaurant , so we can check it out ? sabrina : yes . in a second . felix : in a second ? we 're already an hour late . sabrina : i know , i know , but ... i need to talk to you about something . felix : yes , sabrina , we 're going to use birdseed instead of rice for the happy couple , so the birds do n't explode . sabrina : thank you . this is n't about the birdseed , although i really do appreciate that . felix : [ chuckles ] sabrina : this is about you . i need you to do me a favor . felix : after everything else , what 's one more ? what can i do ? sabrina : i need you to be my maid of honor . [ scene_break ] patrick : look , whether aj is innocent or guilty , i know this is really difficult on you . too difficult to make it work . elizabeth : just thought things were gon na be different this time . you know , because we actually had something in common . patrick : which was ? elizabeth : we both wanted to change our lives . we were looking for redemption , which now i know is not a great basis for any relationship . [ chuckles ] guess we were doomed from the start . unlike you and sabrina . patrick : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : i 'm really happy for you guys . patrick : thank you . i am , too . elizabeth : you 've come a long way since you lost robin . patrick : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : and i 'm really excited to be at the church tomorrow and watch you get married . patrick : which is why i 'm so glad that i ran into you , because i would really like you to be there , but as more than a guest . elizabeth : oh . patrick , if you want me to be your flower girl , you might have to speak with emma about that . patrick : [ laughs ] well , i have something better , actually , i think . will you be my best man ? [ scene_break ] diane : you need to do exactly as i say . when the jury comes back , they 're going to gauge the room 's mood . they 're gon na be looking for clues from you , as to your guilt or innocence . so you need to just keep it together , no matter what 's on these tapes . aj : okay . scott : we 're ready , your honor . olivia : this is it . are you sure you 're ready ? sonny : yeah . are you ? olivia : i 'm not going anywhere . judge chua : all right , mr. baldwin . press play . scott : with pleasure . please note date and time stamp . august 23 , 2013 -- the night of the murder . oh . you can clearly see the defendant in the mishap . diane : objection , your honor . it is in no way clear that the man on the screen is my client . are we supposed to take the d.a . 's word for it ? this could be anyone who simply bears a passing resemblance to my client , who was just wandering through . scott : your honor , the people have a signed affidavit from an expert in facial - recognition software , who has matched the man on the video tape with the defendant . we also have a statement from the bellhop , who picked the defendant out of a lineup , who will testify for the prosecution . judge chua : overruled . d.a . baldwin , please proceed . scott : your honor , that is the defendant on his way to commit an execution . [ scene_break ] diane : if the district attorney wants to persecute my client , then let him issue a citation for public drunkenness . to classify this as evidence is malicious prosecution . any conviction influenced by this footage is a gross miscarriage of justice . scott : your honor , i think the next tape speaks for itself . not only did the defendant have the opportunity to murder , but he also had the means . judge chua : i 'll allow it . scott : you 'll note that the defendant selected the third floor , where the crimson offices are , where the victim worked and where sonny corinthos would find that victim bleeding to death . there you have it . the defendant with weapon , motive , opportunity , at the scene of the crime . your honor , i give you connie falconeri 's murderer . aj : oh , my god . i really did it . i -- i killed connie . [ scene_break ] ava : seems to me you have two options . you keep quiet and let sabrina naively trip down the aisle , only to have her heart broken . or you spare her that pain , and you tell patrick that his wife is alive . carlos : do n't you think i already thought of that ? just last night , i was standing outside his house . i was about to knock on his door . ava : why did n't you ? carlos : [ sighs ] i could n't think of a way to tell him that would convince him . ava : well , that would take some doing . carlos : patrick knows i want sabrina . he 's not gon na believe a word i say . and now it 's even more impossible that everybody knows i 'm julian jerome 's right- hand man . no offense . ava : i would take it as a compliment . carlos : yeah . nothing left to be done . sabrina 's fate is out of my hands and into robin 's . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i honestly do n't know how you survived being separated from patrick and emma without going completely crazy . robin : [ chuckles ] who says i have n't ? nikolas : i do . i think that you are as strong and as grounded as ever , and i know it feels like eternity to you , but you 're almost there . your hope 's right across the water . patrick does n't know it yet , but he 's waiting for you . robin : that 's just it , nikolas . he is n't . i mean , patrick 's feelings for sabrina wo n't disappear just because i 've come back into his life . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm touched . i think . patrick : [ laughs ] elizabeth : you want me to be your best man ? patrick : yes . i mean , just from a practical standpoint . you 're very organized . i know you 're not gon na forget the rings . elizabeth : oh , right . so , you 're not really looking for a best man , but more a caddy . patrick : no , of course not . listen , i would ask my brother , but he 's not really in the position to do this . [ sighs ] in all honesty , when i was thinking about this , i started asking the questions , `` who 's always been there for me ? who always lent me their ear when i wanted to vent ? whose shoulder did i always cry on ? `` and every answer i got was you . elizabeth : patrick . patrick : seriously , though . you 're a very dear friend of mine . you helped me and emma after robin died . you had my back . you had -- you had both of our backs , and i could n't imagine standing at that altar without knowing that you were there with me . elizabeth : how can i say no ? patrick : good answer . [ scene_break ] felix : you want me to -- wait , what ? sabrina : will you be my maid of honor ? felix : oh , honey , that 's so sweet of you to ask . but i did drag once . once . [ chuckles ] and i went all in . i had a platinum beehive wig and six - inch stilettos , and a sensational , zebra - striped , sequin gown , and i went by the name shantay au lait . sabrina : [ laughs ] wow . that sounds amazing , but i 'm not asking -- felix : great on paper . a disaster in heels . and i 'm not gon na do it again unless you want to spring for the emergency calf implants . in which case , maybe . sabrina : okay , let 's forget `` maid . `` how about person ? person of honor ? felix : person of honor . i like it . sabrina : [ chuckles ] felix : me ? sabrina : duh ! who else ? felix : i thought that was a privilege you gave to your family . sabrina : i am . felix , this is the most important day of my life . i ca n't move forward with patrick without my best friend , whom i love with all of my heart , standing by my side . so , what do you say ? felix : no . [ scene_break ] scott : the defense has seen the footage . now it is time for the jury to see the footage , to see the defendant wielding the murder weapon , exiting onto the floor where the victim , moments later , was killed . judge chua : ms. miller . diane : that 's fine , your honor . monica : it is ? kiki : did she just say that ? michael : just let her finish . she has to be working some kind of an angle . diane : the defense has absolutely no objection to the jury seeing this footage . scott : good . bring in the jury . diane : provided we see the rest of the footage . monica : what are you doing ? diane : my job , thank you very much . now pipe down , mother . d.a . baldwin , the rest of the footage , please . scott : the rest of what footage ? diane : the footage which shows my client disembarking from the elevator . i mean , that must be even more damning . certainly it shows my client shooting connie falconeri in cold blood . monica : what the hell is she doing ? michael : it 's okay . it 's okay . kiki : is it ? michael : yeah , she 's got this . judge chua : i 'd like to see the rest of this footage , too , mr. baldwin . do you have any idea where it is ? scott : it 's gone , your honor . judge chua : gone where ? scott : well , i 'm gon na have to refer to olivia falconeri 's testimony about the flood , that everything , after what we saw , was either lost or destroyed in that flood . diane : does the district attorney mean to say that there 's no evidence of my client actually entering the crimson offices ? no footage of him killing the deceased ? no indication of how he might have exited the hotel ? scott : your honor , the jury needs to see this footage . diane : this footage , which is incomplete and dangerously prejudicial . while the footage which might exonerate my innocent client has somehow gone missing ? i think not , your honor . the jury can not be allowed to see these tapes , and i move that you bar them from this trial . [ scene_break ] ava : carlos , carlos , carlos , carlos . what are we gon na do with you ? carlos : nothing to do . sabrina 's made her choice . i have to accept it . ava : mm . but you 're in pain . when you have a void like that inside of you , it can eat you alive slowly . bit by bit . till it consumes you entirely . carlos : what do you know about it ? ava : well , i know what it 's like ... to have your whole world wrapped up in someone who does n't love you anymore . who 's made it perfectly clear that his future does not include you , and someone who will probably ruin their life because he 's spurned you . carlos : what idiot would possibly spurn you ? ava : [ laughs ] not an idiot . just ... arrogant . unwilling to compromise . i do n't want to talk about him . i want to talk about you . and how i do n't want you to end up like me . carlos : oh , come on . you 're doing all right from where i 'm standing . ava : i 'm not . but you can . so let me help you . let me go to patrick on your behalf . if he wo n't take your word for it , maybe he 'll take mine . [ scene_break ] sabrina : no ? okay , no , yeah , i mean ... [ chuckles ] you 've already done so much to make sure that this wedding is gon na happen , and i should n't have just assumed that you -- felix : girl , i 'm messing with you . [ laughs ] you 're too easy . of course , i 'll be your person of honor . sabrina : what ? ! felix : [ laughs ] sabrina : really ? felix : like never before . sabrina : [ laughing ] oh , my god ! thank you . felix : you 're welcome . i 'm so privileged to have you as a friend . and i 'm proud to stand with you on your wedding day . sabrina : thank you so much . felix : you deserve all the joy your life can bring . so , spread some of it around , okay ? because some of us are still woefully unengaged . sabrina : [ laughs ] i promise . once this wedding is done , i will resume full wing man responsibilities and get you hooked up . felix : yeah , well , speaking of weddings , we have a restaurant to get squared away . now , where the hell 's the groom ? [ scene_break ] patrick : ha . yes . settled . elizabeth : i 'll do it . patrick : perfect . now i really got to get to the metro court before felix puts out a bounty . elizabeth : real quick . can i ask you a favor ? patrick : of course . you can ask me anything . elizabeth : can you call me your best person ? 'cause i do n't really like being called a man . patrick : yes . of course . i 'll call you anything you want . okay , i 'll see you tomorrow . elizabeth : no . no , no , no , no . no . um , you are gon na see me in about three hours . patrick : why 's that ? elizabeth : well , i think i have to throw you a bachelor party . patrick : no , you do n't have to do that . elizabeth : yes , i do . we 're gon na go out for drinks and whatever else transpires . patrick : ooh . okay . in that case , i 'll see you in three hours . elizabeth : all right . cab 's gon na pick you up at your house . [ scene_break ] nikolas : patrick loves you . for almost two years , he believed you were dead . once he sees that you 're alive , he 's not just gon na shrug that off . robin : yeah , but he 's not gon na sweep me into his arms , either , and forget about sabrina . i mean , my family is not going to pick up just where it left off . patrick is moving on . nikolas : he did n't know , robin . none of us did . robin : [ sighs ] it 's just so ironic , is n't it ? that patrick is only doing exactly what i asked him to do in that dvd that i left him . nikolas : i know . you told him to move on with someone else , so he and emma can build a life together with someone else . you thought you were doing the right thing . robin : and now emma and patrick , they are happy . they have someone in their life that cares about them and by all accounts is a good person , so , what , i 'm just supposed to waltz in there and take all that away from them ? i mean , how is it fair of me to demand our old life back when they 've worked so hard to build a new one that i 'm not a part of ? nikolas : hey . hey . hey . patrick and emma still need you . robin : they have sabrina . they do n't need me .

elizabeth tells patrick that she feels badly about having to testify against aj but their relationship is over . at aj 's trial , scott presents as evidence the security tapes from the metro court for the night of connie 's murder . diane objects because the prosecution never made the tape available to the defense beforehand . the judge sends the jury out and allows da baldwin to show the tape to the defense and the spectators . the video shows drunken aj stumbling into the metro court and onto an elevator where he presses the button for the floor that connie 's office was on and loads a pistol . diane asks to see the rest of the footage that shows aj getting off the elevator and shooting connie . scott says it was destroyed in a flood at the metro court . diane says the judge ca n't allow the jury to see it . the judge agrees that the footage is prejudicial and that the jury ca n't see it . aj believes he really did it . diane tells him not to assume the worst , because no one will know what really happened until the rest of the footage turns up .

agent sloane : if i were you , get yourself a lawyer . anna : no , no . that wo n't be necessary . nor will these legal proceedings . dr. obrecht : and why is that ? anna : because faison is alive . agent sloane : excuse me ? anna : yeah . cesar faison is not dead . dr. obrecht : do n't believe her . anna : it 's the truth . dr. obrecht : she 's stalling . trying to buy herself time to arrange her flight from justice . anna : no . unlike you , i do n't run . not from anybody . faison is alive , and i can prove it . emma : spencer , what are we doing here ? we 're supposed to be in school . spencer : we do n't need school . leave school for the townies , like cameron . emma : if cam 's a townie , so am i . spencer : do n't be silly . aunt elizabeth is a plain , old nurse . your father 's a brain surgeon . emma : that wo n't stop my dad from killing me if he finds out i 'm here . patrick : well , this is a first . i never expected to be breaking into a safe- deposit box . sam : well , this is small - time compared to breaking into the wsb clinic . patrick : for starters , we did n't know the wsb was involved in crichton - clark when we did that . and second of all , it did n't go so well . we had big men with guns chasing us . sam : yes , we did , but practice makes perfect . and i happen to have a key to the safe - deposit box , so whatever is in there will explain -- hopefully explain the luke spencer problem . we just have to keep larry away long enough so we can get into the box . patrick : and here 's to lulu providing time . lulu : do n't even think of leaving . larry : will you correct her ? tracy : correct her ? larry : well , never mind . i 'll do it myself . hey , you , wench , servant , know thy place ! lulu : i 'm not a servant . you already met me , you jackass . tracy : that 's my stepdaughter , lulu . larry : oh , well , you must have changed your hair . i stand corrected . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have an appointment . lulu : you 're gon na have to miss it . larry : may i ask why ?

dr. obrecht : is n't it enough you have toyed with me for a year ? have n't you had your fill ? ! just tell us you killed faison ! anna : no , i will do no such thing because i did n't . dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] she 'll say anything not to have to account for her actions before a court of law ! drag her into the spotlight ! anna : oh , you 're welcome to , but anything i say here will be exactly what i testify to in court . and you may find that this coup that you 're angling for , you 'll end up being a victim of your own crusade . agent sloane : strange time to be offering career advice , commissioner . dr. obrecht : she 's manipulating you . do n't give her the chance . agent sloane : a lie now wo n't save her later . let 's hear it . anna : well , as obrecht said , it 's about a year ago that robert and i confronted faison in the stables at wyndemere on spoon island . spencer : emma , relax . where 's your sense of adventure ? emma : i left it at school . spencer : you 've been hanging around that goody - goody cameron for too long . nobody 's ever been hurt breaking a few rules . emma : you 're grounded for it all the time . spencer : look at me now ! i am great ! emma : i 'm not ! i could get in major trouble for cutting school . spencer : do n't worry . if anyone finds out , i 'll take the rap . i 'll throw myself on my sword for you . i 'll say i made you do it . emma : you kind of did . what for ? spencer : because i have to show you something , something that will change everything between us . julian : thank you for coming . i know it was n't an easy decision . alexis : your son made a good case . julian : [ chuckles ] you know , he 's thinking about going back into medicine . maybe he should be a lawyer instead . alexis : did you bring me down here to discuss your son 's career path ? julian : no . i guess you could say it 's what led me to being here . alexis : let me stop you right now . because if you 're angling for representation , you need to look somewhere else . ava is wanted for connie falconeri 's murder , and you 're being held for abetting her escape from the hospital . julian : i swear to you , i did not know -- alexis : i can not defend you . i have told you that i can have nothing to do with you if you are not completely honest with me , so we are wasting each other 's time . julian : yeah , i know what your condition was . i asked you here because i 'm ready to meet it . i 'll tell you everything . vesper : i apologize for keeping you waiting . i understand you 've just opened an account for a safe - deposit box . sam : we did . we actually just got married ! patrick : yeah , there 's a few things we want to stow away in safekeeping , so ... vesper : well , congratulations . that 's wonderful . i 'm happy to help you start off your married life . sam : thank you . vesper : i just need to check your i.d . against the forms you already filled out . sam : honey , you have that ?

[ horse whinnies ] emma : so , why show it to me ? spencer : because i need you to see where it all began . emma : spencer , you 're not making any sense . where what all began ? spencer : the danger to you . the night i heard that man plotting against my uncle sonny . i did n't recognize him , but i recognized his boss , luke spencer . luke : incompetent punk . ca n't wait to wipe that stupid smile off your face .

[ beep ] larry : [ chuckles ] alexis : so it was luke all along . luke has been the one pulling the strings . julian : it 's not that simple . alexis : he was the one bringing in the drugs to port charles and targeting sonny . julian : well , among other things -- alexis : and spencer 's claim he set up patrick 's car accident and caused sabrina to lose that baby -- you 're saying that luke is responsible for all of that ? julian : yes . and no . dr. obrecht : cesar is not at wyndemere ! i have been on and off the island countless times since you supposedly took faison into custody ! my daughter lives there with nikolas cassadine and a household of staff -- anna : nikolas and his family and his staff are none the wiser . this is all on me . no one else is complicit in what i 've done to faison . agent sloane : you 've gone into great detail about your hatred for the man , but you have n't said what actually happened to him . anna : robert and i , we agreed not to kill him . but he still had to pay for his crimes . and i just did n't believe there was a government that would make it stick . so in order to protect our family , we ... took matters into our own hands as we saw fit . dr. obrecht : in other words , you played god . anna : oh , yeah , a far more benevolent god than faison deserves . you know what ? if you do n't believe me , you can see for yourselves . i 'll just take you to him . are you coming ? dr. obrecht : yes . nikolas : i do n't know what to do with spencer . he 's always been willful and imaginative , but never a bad kid . britt : oh , he 's a boy , nikolas . he has a good heart . nikolas : i just -- i ca n't abide this dishonest streak . i ca n't . britt : it 's a phase . nikolas : well , he better grow out of it . i 'm gon na talk to his teachers at school . maybe there 's a bad influence . 'cause he 's not learning this deceitful behavior at home , that 's for sure . britt : well , your driver 's taken the kids back to school , so the crisis is over . let 's enjoy my day off . we have the stables all to ourselves . nikolas : [ laughs ] commissioner , agent sloane . dr. obrecht : britta , i am glad you are here . britt : look , i already agreed to support your investigation to my father 's disappearance , so i do n't know what else you expect me to do . dr. obrecht : only that you act as a witness . nikolas : to what ? dr. obrecht : your father 's rescue . britt : what ? agent sloane : the commissioner claims that cesar faison is alive , imprisoned in these stables . nikolas : [ chuckles ] uh , where ? there 's people coming in and out of here all day long , taking care of the horses . there 's no way that he 's in here without anyone knowing . anna : oh , just depends how well - versed you are in the network of catacombs in the area . there are caves and pits gouged into the rocks , abandoned wells , all naturally soundproof . some even large enough to make an acceptable jail cell . you just have to know where to look . alexis : `` yes or no . `` what the hell does that mean ? either luke is responsible or he is n't . julian : [ sighs ] not in this case . alexis : what does that mean ? stop with the double - speak . would you please stop talking in coded language ? is n't this your opportunity to finally tell me the truth ? julian : i am . alexis : fine . then say it in a way that us simpletons can understand . you say that he is n't a bad guy but yet he is a bad guy . so , what is he , all right ? he 's my friend . he 's lulu 's father . julian : would you listen to me ? alexis : then actually say something . julian : yes . luke spencer is all those things . the problem is , is that the man we 're talking about is not really luke spencer . vesper : did you get what you needed , lord ashton ? larry : oh , yes . it 's all right here . thanks for your assistance . vesper : we appreciate your business . sam : hi . vesper : mr. and mrs. zackin . i did n't realize you were still here . sam : yeah , um , you know , i - i got all the way down to the car , and i totally realized i forgot to put something in the safe - deposit box . patrick : may we go back in ? vesper : sure . absolutely .

carly : lulu 's like a little sister to me . of course , i would encourage her to follow her heart and enjoy being in love . i want lulu to be happy , even if that 's with dante . luke : very effective . pulling the little sister card . that might work with some suckers . but this is uncle luke , caroline . and he ai n't buying it . [ scene_break ] lulu : i 'm sorry , i should n't have put you on the spot like that . but dante could just be hard to read sometimes , and so i figured if he was n't talking to me , maybe he was talking to you . not that guys analyze relationships like girls do . michael : dante talks about you all the time , you know . about how much you mean to him , how glad he is he found you . lulu : oh , wow . well , do n't worry , i wo n't tell dante that you revealed his deep , dark secrets . [ scene_break ] jason : the worst thing that could come out right now is that you slept with brenda . it would hurt a lot of people , especially sonny . so if carly 's right and there was something else between you and brenda , you need to tell me now so i can start working damage control . [ scene_break ] [ brenda chuckles ] sonny : how 'd you know i was here ? brenda : i did n't . i was just visiting robin in the hospital and we were talking about stone and all the dinners we used to have here together . sonny : good times . brenda : yeah . they were . and i guess i just ... i do n't know , i just ended up here . i just wanted to remember what it felt like when i was happy . sonny : yeah , me , too . brenda : so you come here a lot ? sonny : no , i have n't been here since luke 's club burned down . brenda : oh , yeah , robin told me luke had a really hard time after laura got sick . sonny : yeah . it was sad . he pretty much trashed what was left of his life , and then he just took off for a while . brenda : yeah , but you ca n't run from memories , can you ? sonny : a lot of them are here . [ laughs ] brenda : i do n't know if you remember the day i moved in with you in your old apartment . do you remember that ? sonny : yeah , i do remember . because i 've never seen so many clothes in my entire life . brenda : [ laughs ] so why 'd you buy me so many new dresses ? sonny : because i wanted to give you everything . brenda : yeah , you did . [ scene_break ] carly : are you calling me a liar ? luke : no . i 'm calling you a spencer , through and through . you came out of the womb ready to rumble . you do n't suffer fakes or fools , and i appreciate that . carly : you think you know me so well , huh ? luke : i know me . and i know that if some arrogant cop and his love struck girlfriend had got one of my kids thrown in the slammer , ooh . i 'd wait years if i had to . crawl over broken glass and hot tar to get my revenge . does that sound familiar ? carly : i hate dante . hell , `` hate `` is n't even a strong enough word for what i feel . and i ca n't wait for the day that life catches up with that miserable bastard . luke : now , where does lulu fall on your hate scale ? carly : i feel sorry for lulu . because she was dumb enough and self involved enough to turn her back on her family , and side with that son of a bitch . she 's in for one hell of a rude awakening . luke : what part do you plan to play in that rude awakening , caroline ? [ scene_break ] dante : carly 's pissed about what happened to michael , so she 's manufacturing an affair between me and brenda . jason : yeah , see , but when you lied about brenda , dante , you raised a red flag . you made carly think that you got a lot closer than a cop should on guard duty . dante : look , if she keeps digging , brenda , she 's going to wind up dead . jason : what , you do n't know carly ? carly 's not going to quit . she 's going to keep looking for proof . dante : and find out that brenda and i killed the balkan 's son . jason : yeah , and that 's not something you want carly to have over your head . [ dante sighs ] [ scene_break ] michael : look , dante loves you , lulu . and i 'm sure he 'd want you living here all the time if a court order was n't keeping me on his couch . lulu : look , i know that dante loves me . i 'm just being stupid and insecure , probably because love has never worked out for me before , and i just want it to with dante . michael : well , he wants it to work with you , too . lulu : did he say that ? michael : pretty much , yeah . i mean , like whenever you guys fight , he says it 's his fault and that he 's an idiot and you 're the best thing that 's ever happened to him . lulu : i know , i just need to trust what i know and dante has proven to me over and over again that he would never hurt me . [ scene_break ] maxie : if i had n't walked into robin 's room when i did , you would have injected her with god knows what , and robin could be dead right now . lisa : if i wanted robin dead , i would n't have dragged her out of a burning house . a house that you set on fire . maxie : that was an accident ! lisa : okay , but that did n't stop the police from dragging me out when robin accused me of attempted murder . and then here we are , a few weeks later , it 's the exact same thing . what is this , the second , third , tenth time ? okay , i 'm sick of it . i 'm going to call my lawyer . ronnie : nobody charged you with anything . maxie : well , what are you waiting for ? i saw lisa standing over robin with a syringe . ronnie : the preliminary analysis came back , all right . there 's no indication that any drug other than the one that was prescribed was injected into robin 's i.v . line . maxie : okay , what part of `` i stopped lisa before her crazy ass could kill my cousin '' -- ronnie : you know , you really just need to calm down , because you could be the one facing charges , okay ? maxie : okay , my dad 's the police commissioner , he signs your paychecks . patrick : come on . that 's not going to help . maxie : neither is he ! steve : what about the syringe ? ronnie : my guys are searching the corridor where dr. niles was seen coming out of robin 's room , but so far , no hypodermics were found . not on the floor or in the trashcans , or in any of the rooms . maxie : oh . then lisa must still have it . lisa : okay , you know what , you can go ahead and search me , but you wo n't find a syringe in my pockets . patrick : because you stashed it somewhere . lisa : because i did n't have one . ronnie : all right , everyone just please calm down , okay ? because if there 's a syringe , we 're going to find it . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : are the pain meds wearing off ? robin : the burn is the least of my worries right now . elizabeth : well , it 's important that you do n't get all stressed . i mean , you know your system 's already compromised by the hiv . the last thing you need is to get an infection . robin : well , maybe i would n't be stressed if someone was n't trying to kill me . i mean , i just want this nightmare to be over . hopefully maxie found something in that syringe and there is proof that lisa wants me dead . elizabeth : you just need to relax , let the police handle it . robin : well , they have n't been able to so far . i mean , even my uncle mac 's hands are tied . lisa 's probably talking her way out of it as we speak . you know , maxie would have come in here . she would have told me that she was in jail or something . so something 's wrong . elizabeth : did you ever think that maybe that something could be maxie ? robin : [ sighs ] i know you 're not her biggest fan . elizabeth : okay , i 'm just saying , she 's not the most reliable witness . she tends to lie at the drop of a hat . maybe she exaggerated what she saw just to get back at lisa for sleeping with patrick . robin : except for the fact that i woke up and i saw her in here . lisa was trying to hurt me and i just have to prove it . [ scene_break ] ronnie : i want to go over your story again . maxie : could you please be taking notes or something so that we do n't waste time repeating things when you could be , i do n't know , arresting lisa ? ronnie : you know , these are very serious accusations you 've made . and i do n't care who your father is , okay ? i 'm not going to arrest dr. niles without making sure that there 's just cause . patrick : maxie saw lisa standing over robin with a syringe . i 'd say that qualifies . ronnie : she 's a doctor . that 's her job . patrick : robin is not her patient ! ronnie : look , maxie said herself that it happened fast . i interview witnesses all the time that make assumptions about a situation and remember them as fact . matt : all right , what is going on ? steve : there was an incident in robin 's room . ronnie : an alleged incident . maxie : i walked into robin 's room and saw lisa standing over robin with a syringe ready to inject her i.v . those are the facts . what more do you need that lisa is a psycho ? lisa : okay , how long am i supposed to sit here and listen to being called names ? i have work to do . nikolas : maxie 's already given her statement . so in the interest of patient care and not further escalating things , i think we should just let her take a walk and clear her head , unless , of course , you 've got more questions . ronnie : no , i think i have everything i need for now . matt : all right , good . well , why do n't we get you some coffee , okay ? maxie : i do n't want any coffee ! i want this detective to do his job and frisk this bitch ! matt : okay , low blood sugar . we 'll find some food to stuff in your mouth while we 're at it . let 's go . lisa : okay , well , if i 'm done , i have patients waiting . ronnie : just do n't leave the hospital . lisa : okay . patrick : so that 's it ? ronnie : well , until we find the syringe . patrick : you know what , lisa , syringe or not , there 's no need for you to be in robin 's room . steve : he 's right . you 're not robin 's doctor . and the patient you were treating down the hall has discharged . so why were you in her room ? lisa : well , i was n't trying to kill robin , if that 's what you 're getting at . patrick : so you were just trying to provoke her , once again ? [ scene_break ] sonny : so what are the odds that we would end up here , together ? i told you we were connected , right ? we always have been . you saved my life . brenda : are you talking about when you ran me down ? sonny : well , i was trying hard not to bleed to death and you helped me out . and i do n't see why , because , if anybody else sees somebody hunched over a steering wheel with a bullet in the chest , they usually call 9 - 1 - 1 . brenda : right . sonny : right . brenda : well , you told me what to do . and no one had ever done that before . so , yeah , i just did what you said . sonny : okay , first and last time that 's ever happened . brenda : [ laughs ] i do n't even know what i liked more -- knowing that i 'd saved your life or knowing that , i do n't know , maybe it was just that one time that you trusted me enough to share a secret with me . sonny : well , we shared more than that , because you literally gave me your blood , right ? so that means you are kind of like part of me . and you always will be . brenda : yeah , that 's what you used to say . you know , when i lived here , it was the only time in my whole life that i was ever really happy . sonny : i used to love to see you smile . you were like a kid on christmas morning . your beautiful face would light up . what happened ? brenda : what do you mean ? sonny : well , because there 's a sadness in your eyes now . like the light is not there . and i just hate to think that i had anything to do with that . [ brenda chuckles ] [ scene_break ] jason : see , carly would love for it to come out that you helped cover up alexander 's death . because you would lose your badge and brenda would be charged with murder . dante : yeah , playing into the balkan 's hands , doing his job for him . jason : yeah , but carly 's not going to kill you . dante : well , neither will the balkan if we find him first . jason : one thing you got going for you is michael . the judge put him in your care . so even if carly does find something , she might wait until michael 's off probation . dante : oh , that 's giving her a lot of credit , jason . you think she 's going to be that patient ? jason : well , she 's impulsive . but not when it comes to her kids . she 's not going to risk getting michael sent back to pentonville , but she 's not going to let this go , either . dante : okay , look , i can handle her hating me . i do n't care . but this is n't about me . this is her bringing the balkan down on everybody . jason : yeah , but carly ca n't see any farther than making you pay for what happened to michael . dante : all right , well , lulu tells me that carly does n't listen to anyone but you . so why do n't you talk to her , try and get her to see the bigger picture here . [ scene_break ] carly : i ca n't help what dante may do to hurt lulu . luke : and yet , here you are , encouraging her to give her heart and soul to this spud that you hate . look , do n't mistake me for the clowns that you run circles around , caroline . i know what 's up . the deeper invested lulu is , the harder she 's going to be hurt when dante gets his karmic kickback courtesy of you . carly : i have warned lulu over and over again to stay away from dante . that he 's exactly like sonny . and if it turns out to be true , well , then , lulu will have to learn her lesson . luke : yes , she will . she may have to live and learn . but you 'd be wise not to bring it on . carly : that almost sounds like a threat . [ scene_break ] lisa : i ca n't believe you 're all buying into maxie 's hysteria . i mean , she obviously feels guilty about setting the fire , and she 's trying to make it up to robin by backing up all of her crazy claims . patrick : so if you 're as innocent as you claim , why would you take off running ? lisa : because it 's a natural reaction when you 're being chased by an angry mob . steve : 'cause , see , you still have n't told us why you were in her room . lisa : well , maybe i thought i 'd give robin another chance . see if she could be civil , and then i 'd consider dropping the petition . patrick : or maybe you were trying to rile her up , so when she got in front of the board , she 'd lose it and you 'd look like the rational one , yeah ? lisa : okay , the only person trying to rile people up is you . because you just keep making accusations , 'cause you steve : all right , enough , enough , enough ! there may not be evidence of a threat , but the fact that you went into robin 's room is enough to indicate unnecessary provocation . you 're on probation . lisa : [ scoffs ] you 're kidding ! steve : your o.r . privileges are revoked , and you 're being temporarily transferred to the e.r . , where i can keep an eye on you . lisa : well , we might have to take that up with the board at the hearing . steve : the hearing is canceled . if you aggravate robin in any way or approach her again , you will be fired from this hospital . [ scene_break ] matt : all i 'm saying is getting in the guy 's face and calling him a lousy cop is not the best way to get him to listen . maxie : no , ronnie was ready to let lisa go even after i caught her trying to kill robin . matt : without proof -- maxie : hello , i was an eye witness . i walked in there and caught lisa standing over robin with a syringe full of something . that should be enough to lock her up . matt : okay . why do n't you go talk with robin ? i have n't even had this coffee . just bring her this -- maxie : no , what do you want me to say to her ? i 'm sorry lisa got off scot - free again because i failed to come through ? matt : failed to come through ? what are you talking about ? [ beeper sounding ] matt : it 's the e.r . they 're bringing in a trauma . maxie : go . i do n't need a baby - sitter . matt : do n't leave here without talking to me . johnny : hey , maxie . what was up with that hoo - ha circus over at that nurse 's station earlier ? maxie : lisa niles is the circus . more like a freak show rolled into one . she 's been gas lighting robin , trying to make her look crazy . and then tonight , i walked into robin 's room and lisa was standing over her with a syringe that was probably full of poison . johnny : well , lisa is a doctor . are you sure she was n't trying to give robin some sort of pain medication or something ? maxie : she 's not robin 's doctor . johnny : still , it seems like a little bit of a stretch , huh ? maxie : hold on , wait , why is everybody so quick to defend lisa ? johnny : no , no , no , i 'm not defending anybody . i 'm just saying , you know how you have a tendency to exaggerate things sometimes . maxie : if lisa had n't ditched that syringe , this would n't be even be an issue . she would be on her way to shadybrook in a straightjacket . johnny : all right . where you going ? maxie : i 'm going to find that syringe . i know it 's around here somewhere . [ scene_break ] luke : oh , come on , caroline . why would i threaten you ? that 's not my style . i just go for the jugular when the enemy is n't looking . carly : so i 'm the enemy now ? luke : what i 'm telling you is , if dante suddenly shows up as some kind of dirty cop , or his place is raided and they pull 15 hookers out of the closet , i 'm going to feel compelled to look into it . if i find your fingerprints on anything , i wo n't only throw you off the bus and under it , i will park the bus on you . carly : wow . you can save your threats , uncle luke . 'cause i am banking on the fact that dante is going to live down to my expectations . and , you know , you should be a little more grateful i 'm putting you up here . luke : my heart is full . carly : your delivery needs work . luke : you know , if we ever found a mutual victim to lay flat ... that poor sucker would n't stand a chance . [ scene_break ] sonny : when we first got together , you were so full of hope , life . you did n't have that sadness in your eyes . and i just hope that i did n't have -- brenda : no , you -- [ chuckles ] look , i 'm sorry if i 'm not happy enough for you these days . you know , it might have something to do with the fact that i 'm living like a prisoner at jason 's house . sonny : do n't do that . brenda : what ? sonny : make it about everything else but what we 're talking about here . this here , good and bad . things happen . brenda : yeah , things happened . a lot of stuff happened between us . you left me twice . sonny : right , right . brenda : it changed me . sonny : yeah , i know . and i ... i do n't know , sometimes i ca n't stop thinking about when we were in that water . brenda : why would you bring that up ? that 's so long ago . sonny : we just ... [ sighs ] i do n't know . i just remember it like it was yesterday . you were screaming and crying and i was yelling and there was a point where i wanted to , like , do something that i -- brenda : you did n't . sonny : i know . if i laid a hand on you -- brenda : you never laid a hand on me . sonny : i just remember the anger just building and building . and ... brenda : you made me desperate . sonny : yeah , i know . brenda : that 's what you did to me . no one makes me that way . you loved me . you loved me more than anyone ever loved me . and i was afraid that if i ever let that go , then i might not ever feel that again . sonny : have you ? [ scene_break ] robin : that is the worst part about being in here . you know , i 'm missing out on so many things with emma , and lisa 's just , whatever . i have to stop . i have to stop and be grateful for the fact that i 'm alive . elizabeth : yes . and you have an amazing daughter and friends and family who adore you . and patrick . robin : i do n't know what patrick and i are to each other anymore . elizabeth : do n't you still love him ? patrick : hey . thank you for staying . elizabeth : yeah , of course . everything okay ? patrick : steve will fill you in . i just need a second with robin , if that 's all right . elizabeth : sure . i 'll be back to check on you . robin : thank you . patrick : thank you , elizabeth . robin : what happened ? she get away with it ? patrick : well , not exactly . robin : they arrested her ? patrick : no , they ca n't find the needle . without the needle , they ca n't prove intent . robin : of course not . patrick : but steve agreed with me the fact that lisa showed up in your room is enough to put her on probation . she ca n't operate anymore . she 's been transferred to the e.r . until further notice . and if she comes anywhere near you , she 's going to get fired . robin : thank you . thank you for fighting for me and thank you for believing in me . patrick : robin , of course . i always believe in you . i just hope we can all get over this and we can start working on our family again . robin : well , let 's not jump into anything that we do n't know is the right choice for us . we have to think about our daughter . [ scene_break ] jason : okay , those better not be for brenda 's room . spinelli : stone cold , relax , they 're a gift for dr. robin . the divine one thought a fragrant floral arrangement might assist in the healing process . you know , studies have shown -- jason : i do n't care about studies , okay . you have better things to do than run errands for brenda all the time . spinelli : i 'm happy to aid the divine one in whatever she might need ; be it favors or -- jason : oh , you want to help somebody ? why do n't you help me and get some information on the balkan ! spinelli : yes , i understand your desire to remedy the situation with the balkan in an expedited fashion , but dr. robin 's gift will begin to droop if not delivered -- jason : forget the flowers and get back to work . spinelli : the divine one -- jason : spinelli ! now . i do n't want to hear another word about brenda . [ scene_break ] brenda : you know , my whole life i was always trying to get my dad 's attention . and then yours . sonny : hmm . now you got everybody 's attention . 'cause i ca n't pick up a magazine without seeing your face . brenda : yeah , but i never did get his . and you , you know . then there 's you . i mean , it seems so silly now 'cause it was so long ago and i was such a little girl . but i was always trying to get you to see me , you know , like the real me inside of me . you remember how long it took you to say `` i love you `` to me ? sonny : [ chuckles ] i was scared . brenda : you were what ? sonny : scared . brenda : oh , my god . why did n't you say that to me 15 years ago ? sonny : it was a long time ago . is n't that what you keep telling me ? brenda : yep . you were my first love . does n't really matter , you know , how much time passes or how long it 's been since we 've seen each other . you will always be that for me . [ both chuckle ] [ scene_break ] luke : hi there . lulu : so is the wedding off already , or you convinced tracy to let a sherpa do it on top of a mountain ? luke : sherpa on a mountain ? those would be very unusual nuptials . i think that 's cool . no . actually , that 's not why i wanted to talk to you . lulu : it sounds serious . luke : well ... i just thought maybe it was time we had the quasi philosophical father - daughter conversation . lulu : you have n't gotten through one yet . luke : i know . i have my faults . but i thought i 'd take another stab at it . being in the older , `` wiser `` parental position , i feel compelled to make you aware of some things that maybe you 're not aware of . lulu : like what ? luke : wow , we 're warming up fast . um , like ... love . lulu : [ laughs ] okay . what about love ? luke : it 's like ... a drug . a little bit can make you happy , enhance your life . too much can throw you right face down into a ditch . lulu : i could n't agree more . luke : you could n't ? lulu : no , you know what , i can talk to him . i know that you have difficulty giving romantic advice . but i have no problem telling lucky that he 's moving a little too quickly with siobhan . i mean , it 's too early to tell who she really is or what she 's capable of . luke : no . it is too early , is n't it ? yeah , you 're right . good . [ scene_break ] dante : hey . michael : hey . dante : you going to your mom 's ? michael : uh , well , lulu said she 'd be back later . i got the feeling i 'd be in the way . dante : oh . well , that 's cool . thanks , i owe you . michael : well , you 've done plenty of things for me , man . things i could never repay . dante : well , that 's the beauty of having a brother . you do n't have to . michael : look , i got ta be honest with you about something . it wo n't be fair to keep it a secret . dante : okay , what happened ? michael : i overheard you talking with suzanne this morning . and it was n't like i meant to . i was coming out of the shower , got trapped , and it did n't seem like something i should be interrupting . dante : how much did you hear ? michael : suzanne thinks you 're emotionally involved with brenda . i think she 's right . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hi . i was going to call you . i wanted to talk to you about thanksgiving . the boys and i are going over to grams ' and we wanted to invite you , you and spencer . steve : i 'll be there , too . elizabeth : you know , for aidan . nikolas : yeah . yeah , that sounds great . we 'd love to come , thank you . elizabeth : great . i 'll let gram know . nikolas : okay . anyway , as i said , it 's unfortunate that this feud between robin and lisa has come to this . they 're both great doctors and assets to this hospital . steve : yeah , i agree . i agree . but things were starting to get out of hand between them , and i had to step in before this became a hostile work environment . nikolas : yeah . look , it 's no secret that robin and i are friends , but if i 'm being completely objective about this , i 'm not convinced that lisa was treated fairly . compared to robin 's attacks , lisa did relatively little . yet she 's the one who 's been suspended . steve : if the police had found a syringe , this would be an entirely different conversation . nikolas : until we have something concrete like that , and i think it 's in this hospital 's best interest to not take sides . [ scene_break ] matt : i heard the attending talking about it down in the e.r . , and i thought you 'd want to know . maxie : well , probation is n't enough punishment for all the crap lisa 's pulled , but i 'll take any victory over that nutjob , even a small one . should we go to jake 's and celebrate ? matt : i would be happy to go raise a glass , but i 'd want to know what we 're drinking to first . so be honest with me -- did you frame lisa ? [ scene_break ] robin : hi ! jason : hey . robin : this is a surprise . jason : yeah . i would have come by sooner . robin : no , i meant the flowers . i remember you saying something about not liking seeing flowers in a hospital room . watching them wilt and die when they should be in the ground where they belong . jason : right . i really still do n't see the point , but they 're from brenda . and spinelli was supposed to deliver them , but i had him work on something else . so there you go . robin : thank you very much . jason : i , um ... i really would have come by sooner , but -- robin : oh , no , i know . it 's okay . i know . you have your hands full with brenda . but you got a break . jason : yeah . robin : it 's good to see you . jason : how you feeling ? robin : better , you know . it 's just one burn . it 's healing . you know what , why do n't we talk about something else , 'cause i 'm tired of talking about my own problems . jason : okay . robin : that 's actually one of the great things about having brenda back in town . she 's able to stir up all this drama to distract us from our own lives . [ scene_break ] dante : look , anything i felt for brenda is in the past . i 'm with lulu . i want to be with lulu . michael : you 're putting yourself on the line for brenda . dante : yeah , it 's my job . michael : it 's not your job to keep her secrets . dante : look , the reason i did n't tell lulu the whole truth is because ... i did n't want to hurt her feelings . i do n't want her questioning what we have . there 's no point in that . michael : you may not have planned on seeing brenda after your job was finished . but now you do every single day . dante : yeah , i see lulu every day , too . and i 'm committed to her , michael , that means a lot to me . maybe i feel more for brenda than i probably should , but i love lulu . i 'm not going to hurt her , over brenda or anything else . [ scene_break ] sonny : i know when you first came back , i came on a little strong . i did n't let it happen naturally . brenda : no , no , it was nothing you did . trust me . sonny : it 's just , i 've never been great at handling my feelings for you . they confuse the hell out of me . i never understood why i fell for a spoiled brat , with a temper to boot . brenda : [ laughs ] maybe it 's because you fell for yourself . sonny : ahh . brenda : you know , every time we fought , things got broken . sonny : yeah . and every time we called it quits , i 'd lie to myself and tell me it was no big deal , but i really could never imagine living without you . somebody asked me today what made you different than the other women i 've been with . i just kinda like the way you love me . the way you gave me your all . and , you know , as much as you were afraid of losing me , i was afraid of ... not being with you . [ scene_break ] maxie : i do n't believe this . you 're taking lisa 's side , too . matt : it was a simple question . maxie : no , no , no , that was an accusation , and you 're basically calling me a liar . matt : no , that is not what i am doing . i was in the room with you and robin when you suggested framing lisa . maxie : matt , that was a joke ! that 's why i pitched framing lisa for devil worship , not attempted murder . matt : i know how protective you can be of robin . i also know how devious you can be when you put your mind to it , and how convincing you can be when properly motivated . maxie : so you are calling me a liar . matt : i 'm just saying it 's quite convenient that you talk about framing lisa and then you see a syringe in her hand that nobody can find . patrick : maxie . did you frame lisa ? [ scene_break ] lisa : nikolas ! hey ! nikolas : hey , hey . lisa : i caught you ! i did n't get a chance to thank you at the hospital . nikolas : thank me for what ? lisa : well , you were the only one who even tried to remain objective . and i know you and robin are good friends , so i really appreciate that . nikolas : yeah , well , it 's my job to ensure that everyone on staff is treated fairly . lisa : well , i do n't know if me being put on probation is really fair . especially since i did n't do anything wrong . nikolas : yeah , well , you know , it 's just a bad situation all the way around . but you stick to your probation and stay away from robin , you 'll be back in surgery in no time . lisa : i should probably just leave . i mean , that 's what everybody wants , is for me to be transferred to some other hospital . nikolas : well , what do you want ? lisa : i just want to go to work and see my patients and not have to worry about being dragged out in handcuffs . you know , but if i left , it would be an admission of guilt . so i have to stay and clear my name . i mean , there 's no evidence against me except for what maxie said . nikolas : well , if maxie lied and said she saw you with some syringe in a misguided attempt to help robin , then she and everyone else owe an apology , a big one . lisa : i would n't hold my breath , but i appreciate the thought . nikolas : you 're welcome . trust me , i know what it 's like to be the villain . so it says a lot about you that you 're willing to stay on despite the animosity in order to clear your name . [ scene_break ] dante : brenda , she 's a beautiful woman . i mean , that has n't changed . but , you know , where i am in my life has changed . i love lulu . i ca n't imagine my life without her . i do n't even want to . she loves me , thankfully . brenda 's just someone i used to know . michael : and what , now you have to see her all the time ? dante : well , we 'll stop the balkan and she 'll leave port charles , or maybe she wo n't , but it wo n't be the same . there 's all this adrenalin going around right now because the situation is just charging everything up and making it more heightened . michael : is that what you feel for brenda , adrenalin ? dante : i do n't know . whatever it was , it was powerful , but i got over it the first time . i 'll get over it now . [ scene_break ] robin : so what do you think is going to happen with brenda and sonny ? jason : i do n't want to know . robin : oh , come on . jason : no , i do n't . robin : come on . what would be so horrible about 2 people being together that love each other ? jason : they are not good for each other . it 's like an explosion waiting to happen . and then you 've got carly in the mix . you throw her in , she 's going to act out -- robin : who cares about carly ? she and sonny are divorced , okay . she should n't have a say in who sonny is with . and do n't say anything about the kids , because michael is 18 , jax is adopting morgan . it 's time for her to not to use sonny 's kids against him anymore . [ cell phone rings ] jason : sorry . you 're still with brenda ? max : [ grunting ] kind of . jason : what do you mean , kind of ? max : she asked me to drive her to luke 's old club . i got the door open for her , but she did n't want me to go inside with her . i waited in the car for about an hour , and when i went to go check on her , she was in mr. c 's old place . he was with her . jason : brenda 's with sonny right now ? max : yeah , yeah , i was in the corridor and i heard them talking . i think there 's no way that i 'm going to be the one to drive ms. barrett out . there 's a lot of things in my job description , but telling mr. c who he can and ca n't talk to is not one of them . jason : okay . i 'm going to handle it . robin : brenda 's with sonny ? jason : yeah , at his old apartment . i got ta go get her . robin : no , wait , do n't ! do n't ! just give them a chance to see where it goes . [ scene_break ] brenda : i never would have left you . and when you had to marry lily , not when you left me at the altar ... i would have done anything for you . and the truth is , i have waited for you . after you , the light went out for me . i wish we would have stayed together , but we did n't . so . sonny : we ca n't change what happened , but we can try to be together now . hmm . woman : ca n't you see ? this was meant to be , so far from where we 've been , we 'll carry on the ties that never end , will bring us hope again

[ scene_break ] carly : what ? john : we were sitting at my hotel room . we were looking at old family photo albums . it was the first time i ever showed you a picture of your cousin , rosemary . i told you the story about how she graduated with honors from binghamton university , and that made your great aunt gwen so proud . carly : what -- what are you talking about ? john : ric thinks that you started the fire , and he wants to prosecute you . carly : you know , i do n't really care what ric thinks . what do you think ? john : i think you need an alibi .

[ clears throat ] maxie : no ! no , no , no ! okay , i believe you ! you 're franco ! i -- well , if you 're not him , we 're both definitely going to jail . luke : you call that art ? franco : think you can do better ? luke : stand back , picasso . maxie : not you , too ! luke : observe genius unleashed . your move , rembrandt . franco : [ exhales ] you want to know the difference between those two ? luke : one 's art , and one 's yours ? franco : i can walk out there right now and get 50 grand easy for that peace sign . luke : really ? when you put it like that , salvador , i can see the appeal . maxie : are you two quite finished ? you just defaced a priceless art exhibit . and you , i mean , what kind of artist are you if you let just anyone stroll in here and mess with your work ? franco : my work ? do n't you mean franco 's ? luke : i hear your boss coming , maxie . maxie : oh , my god , kate 's here ? oh , god , she 's not going to believe this . luke : this is very expressive . provocative . the outsider strikes back . actually , score one for the marginalized . but it must be weird for you , you know ? having made your bones outside the loop , and now being the go - to guy for establishment art ? your work lurking down from the walls of the mantels of the people you used to despise ? actually , from the look of it , you still do . but their money 's as green as anybody 's , right ? must bend your head , though . franco : art 's like a mirror . it 's pretty clear what you see . [ scene_break ] maxie : thank god you 're here , i really need you . lulu : oh , no , what happened ? maxie : nothing yet , but disaster is looming . franco is here . and he 's seriously good looking , but very weird . lulu : weird how ? maxie : well , uh , come see for yourself . there 's safety in numbers . lulu : are you freaking out right now ? maxie : no . everything 's under control . let 's go . dominic : well , i 'll come , too , okay ? maxie : on second thought , he does n't like to be crowded . so maybe i should just go by myself . lulu : okay , whatever you want . maxie : come by the installation room later by yourself , so you can meet him as a `` crimson `` employee . that way he wo n't feel gawked at . lulu : sure maxie : and i might need to be rescued . okay . lulu : [ chuckles ] poor maxie . she thinks everything about `` crimson `` is this -- [ chuckles ] okay , sweet , just walk away from me when i 'm talking to you . dominic : uh , what ? oh , i 'm sorry . just this art , it 's kind of crazy , do n't you think ? lulu : well , yeah . dominic : i mean , there 's something about it . i 'm just drawn to it . lulu : you like this stuff ? dominic : well , i do n't know . it just seems really familiar . [ scene_break ] sonny : i really do appreciate you doing this for me . olivia : i agreed to go to an art opening because i do n't have to perjure myself not to lie to the cops about being with you when i was n't . sonny : i 'm just hoping it does n't get to that . olivia : okay . well , since i 've made it this far , why do n't you tell me what the hell actually happened ? sonny : i set up a meeting with one of zacchara 's associates , joey limbo . we were going to talk about a truce . he double crossed me . we get out of the car and we walk right into an ambush . i 'm supposed to be dead right now . i know that , you know , you 'd be happier if i was . olivia : it would certainly make my life a whole lot less complicated . sonny : really ? olivia : do n't be ridiculous . of course i 'm glad you 're still alive . let 's get out of here . what ? sonny : well , it 's just that i wish that this was n't just about plausible deniability , that you got all dolled up and all that cause -- i was taking you out for real . [ scene_break ] lucky : three men died of gunshot wounds . the cause of death for number four , joey limbo , is still uncertain . forensics is n't back yet , but the preliminary theory is that an unknown person came up and stood on joey 's throat . sam : while he was laying there ? shot ? lucky : yeah , there 's more . the body was posed . sam : wait a minute , so you 're telling me that some sicko crushed this guy 's windpipe and then deliberately posed his body ? lucky : and arranged it in a certain way for a certain effect . on his side , arms extended in an unnatural way . now , unless you 've taken a serious turn for the deranged , i ca n't figure you for something like that . you 're more efficient . go in , mow 'em down , clean it up and get out . something very out of the ordinary 's going on here . if you know anything about it , which you do , you might want to let us know . you have my cell . have a good evening . [ scene_break ] luke : so , uh , what 's with this crime scene motif ? you a closet cop ? franco : violence sells , right ? that 's what i 'm all about , is n't it ? luke : hey , i got no objection to cash flow , man . it 's the frauds and the hypocrites that stick up my craw . franco : i like it here in port charles . the folks are so friendly . luke : well , you take these folksy fools to the cleaners , mr. warhol . it 'll be fun . for all of us . and lucrative for you . but , it 's pretty clear you do n't know the first thing about real violence . you 're dripping in fake blood , peddling your cheap thrills . you got that flush pocket crowd out there all lathered up , hot and bothered , titillated by images that if you came across them firsthand , you would wet your designer jeans . [ franco laughs ] [ scene_break ] max : yeah . head shot , close range , uh , 38 special . milo : hmm , blunt object . see , no blood spatter , just a trickle . max : ahh . milo : even a small handgun would deposit brains all over the oriental . franco : ahh . a pygmy blow dart , from the window . guy hit his head on the side of the bed when he fell . max : really ? milo : i knew it . luke : you 're listening to the master , boys . he shot a man in reno once , just to watch him die . [ scene_break ] patrick : oh , okay . what are you doing here ? sonny : what , you do n't think i 'm a classy guy ? i needed a night out . robin : well , i 'm glad that you decided to spend it here . not just because it 's good to see you as always , but maybe you 'll like this guy 's art . sonny : uh -- the guy 's pretty dark . [ scene_break ] tracy : would you tell me what public enemy number one is doing on this guest list ? jax : well , that would have been kate 's call . she 's editor and chief of `` crimson . `` tracy : you 're the backer . and he or she who holds the purse strings holds the power . just ask my husband . jax : well , we have an arrangement ? she gets free reign of `` crimson . `` hence this entire exhibit . you know , franco might be the flavor of the month , but he does n't get my vote . tracy : mystery solved . jax : what ? tracy : she obviously wanted to match the guest list with the artwork . let 's see , dreary , blood - soaked and pretentious , ooh , who does that sound like ? jax : [ chuckles ] i think that describes sonny perfectly . tracy : good guess . now tell me why somebody in law enforcement has not been able to put him behind bars for a lifetime ? jax : do n't worry , someone will . just a matter of time . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i hope maximista is not displeased by the jackal 's tardiness . see , as a full partner in mccall and jackal , l 's it was my duty to follow through on all security , make sure everything was all in order . lulu : i would n't worry . i 'm sure maxie did n't even notice that you were n't here . dominic : ouch . lulu : no , i did n't mean -- that came out wrong . no , no , no , no . what i mean is that maxie has her hands full . she pulled franco duty , which is like celebrity baby - sitting . she has to make sure all the red m & ms are all perfect and precise . spinelli : well , actually , i am most admiring of the off - putting painter 's work . it 's original , and darkly explosive . dominic : am i missing something here ? i mean , look at that one . i know that 's supposed to have some kind of profound meaning , but does n't it just look like graffiti ? spinelli : they 're not really dead , right ? [ scene_break ] sam : oh , there 's spinelli , i 'm going to go check in . jason : whoa , whoa . sam : what ? jason : you 're leaving me ? sam : just for a minute . you just take in all this wonderfulness . [ indistinct chatter ] [ jason exhales ] robin : well , now i know i 'm living in an alternate reality . you and sonny , both at an art show . jason : can i ask you a question ? robin : mm - hmm . jason : what makes this art ? [ scene_break ] maxie : you know , i 'm kind of an artist myself . franco : i knew it the minute we met . maxie : really ? how ? franco : you 've got the look . maxie : what look ? franco : do n't toy with me . you 're an artist . i can tell . we all can . you see things others ca n't . maxie : oh , right . that look . [ chuckles ] so i was thinking , since you 've dabbled in so many different types of media , have you ever done a fashion shoot ? franco : no . [ scene_break ] franco : piece of junk , if you ask me . maxie : i do n't think mr. corinthos is interested in crime -- art . i meant art . sonny : i like it . franco : why ? sonny : it looks real . franco : and how would you know ? sonny : i read a lot . this your work ? franco : since you like it , yeah . sonny : i would imagine a lot of research goes in something like that . franco : i read a lot . sonny : got ta be careful , because , you know , you read too much , it clouds your thinking . pretty soon , you do n't know the difference between what 's real and what you imagine . [ franco exhales ] maxie : do you have any idea who that was ? franco : no idea , but he had a pretty good read on me . i take it he 's not an art fan . maxie : hardly . but i feel like you two probably have a lot in common . [ scene_break ] sam : lucky 's guessing , just like we are . why go around posing dead bodies ? jason : i guess it 's art to somebody . [ scene_break ] maxie : do you know jason morgan ? franco : not yet . tell me about him . maxie : he 's one of mr. corinthos ' associates . they 're coffee importers . franco : i love coffee . introduce me . maxie : oh , i do n't know if that would be such a good idea . see , jason 's not what you would call user friendly . and he does n't know anything about art . franco : the best art is understood by the fewest number of people . maxie : oh . okay . well , you 're incredibly popular . does that mean you 're not very good ? franco : i 'm good , but he may be better . maxie : he 's not an artist . franco : look again . maxie : [ sighs ] he 's got the look ? franco : i want to meet him . make it happen , or i will . maxie : you 're welcome , and you owe me . okay . so here 's the deal . he 's incredibly famous , incredibly weird , and my career depends on this . i have no idea why , but he wants to meet you . jason : who ? maxie : the death guy , franco , over there . look , if you could just be on your best behavior , and if you have to say something besides `` nice to meet you , `` try , ooh , `` you never really know life until you 've faced death . `` that sounds right up your alley . jason : maxie , i do n't -- maxie : do you think you can go with him , in case he does something stupid , like acts like himself ? sam : well -- jason : why does he want to meet me ? maxie : he said you 're an interesting person . i do n't know , and i do n't really care . i just know i need him to do a photo shoot for `` crimson , `` so please . jason : no . maxie : jason . jason : no . maxie : well , the next time you need me to do a favor maxie : i think jason 's just too intimidated to meet you . franco : let 's go . maxie : what ? franco : i 'm leaving . come with me . maxie : wait , what ? you have n't even met kate howard yet ! [ scene_break ] sonny : it 's amazing what passes for art around here . luke : never mind that . look , the next time you want somebody to play judas and lure someone to their death , do n't call me . sonny : luke , that 's not what happened . luke : well , what happened , sonny ? you told me you wanted me to set up a meeting with limbo so that you can discuss a cease fire . the next thing i know , you stabbed me in the back and whacked him . sonny : i went there for peace . joey limbo pulled a fast one . he tried to ambush me . luke : well , good . then i guess you had to do it . at least now you 're here , having a nice night out . joey and his crew , however , are dead as mackerels . sonny : we managed to turn around . max and milo had them pinned and jason did what he had to do but i got ta tell you -- nobody was supposed to die . i would never use you like that . luke : well , i 'm glad it worked out for you . for joey , not so well . and for me -- i 'm neutral , sonny . i work hard to be neutral . we 're friends . do n't ever use me as a foot soldier . [ scene_break ] jason : hey , we have to go . spinelli : no , i still have to find maximista -- jason : no , we have to go right now . dominic : that does not bode well . [ scene_break ] maxie : so , uh , where are we going ? franco : depends on you . maxie : okay . i know about this new bar . franco : [ clears throat ] put this on . maxie : [ chuckles ] does n't really go with my outfit . franco : over your eyes , like a blindfold . maxie : why ? franco : well , i ca n't have you telling everyone how to get to my studio . maxie : we 're going to your studio ? franco : can you put this on ? maxie : but i do n't even know anything about you . franco : well , that 's the point , right ? to find out ? at least so you can work me into giving you that magazine shoot ? maxie : exactly how hard are you suggesting i 'm going to have to work ? franco : pull over . have a good career . you be safe getting home , all right ? maxie : it 's just for security , right ? franco : what else ? maxie : well , i love what you 've done with the place . can i take this thing off now ? franco : what are you worried about ? maxie : creeps with blindfolds , for starters . franco : come on , it 's exciting . i mean , god knows where i am with a strange man . anything can happen . maxie : hence the worry . franco : explore . you ca n't see . what do your other senses tell you ? maxie : okay , i 've seen this movie , and if you start with the ice cubes , i am out of here . franco : no ice , i promise . nothing will happen that you do n't want . maxie : okay , no , i 'm really scared . franco : that 's my aunt harriet . she died last winter . maxie : that 's it ! franco : i 'm sorry , sorry . it 's a mannequin . i use it when i 'm working on portraits . but if you want , you can take the blindfold off . maxie : what happens if i do that ? franco : nothing . i call you a cab and you go home . maxie : can we just have , like , a normal conversation in some place familiar where i could see stuff ? franco : okay . maxie : okay . franco : a normal conversation , wherever you like . maxie : just like that ? franco : just like that . when you do one more thing for me . [ scene_break ] [ jason exhales ] spinelli : i 'm sorry , what justifies calling both mccall and jackal off important business ? jason : you put security cameras all over the gallery ? spinelli : yes , of course , it 's elementary . jason : okay , good . i want you to pull footage from the so - called murder scene exhibit , okay ? right now . from 15 minutes ago . [ all sighing ] spinelli : here it is . sam : i do n't get what we 're looking for . spinelli : uh , it appears maximista is leaving with the -- jason : okay , there there , freeze it . spinelli : what -- oh . jason : that guy 's waving at me . [ scene_break ] franco : that 's it . maxie : this floor is freezing . franco : wo n't take long , just relax . maxie : did i mention that my dad is the police commissioner ? and my boyfriend , i do n't know if i told you about him , but he works for jason morgan , who 's not really a coffee importer . um , so if something were to happen to me -- franco : nothing is going to happen to you . i wo n't touch you , i promise . now just lie still . maxie : well , wait , where are you going ? you ca n't leave me ! franco : i 'm right here . just try not to move . maxie : why , what are you going to do ? [ `` mad world `` playing ] franco : try not to move around franco : try not to move around so much . maxie : excuse me , but this is my first time laying on the freezing cold floor blindfolded while so lunatic is taking pictures of me . franco : [ chuckles ] you do n't know anything about my work , do you ? if you did , you 'd be able to guess where you are . maxie : i know where i am . at your studio . what i 'm doing here is anybody 's guess . franco : think . try and get past the fear and discomfort and focus . what do you know ? maxie : [ chuckles ] i know this is insane . franco : no , it 's not . do n't be so dramatic . focus on what is certain . and what you 're doing here will make perfect sense . maxie : i know you 're an artist . franco : what kind of artist ? maxie : famous . franco : irrelevant . maxie : well , you do graffiti . franco : and ? maxie : recreate crime scenes . franco : recreate how ? maxie : well , using furniture , props , fake blood . at least i 'm hoping it 's fake . you always do a chalk outline of -- oh , my god ! you sick freak ! [ exhales ] [ scene_break ] lulu : i 'm officially worried . dominic : about what ? lulu : maxie does n't exactly have the best judgment . i think she took off with fran -- again -- dominic : i 'm sorry , i just -- i could swear i have seen this before . [ scene_break ] forensic cop : we 're done here . lucky : give me a minute before you open up the crime scene . i want to walk through one more time . forensic cop : oh , preliminary autopsies are back . it 's official -- joey limbo 's windpipe was crushed . that 's what killed him . lucky : all right , thanks . [ police radio chatter ] [ scene_break ] spinelli : two men waved to you today , under vastly different circumstances . i mean , surely it 's coincidental . sam : i kind of agree with spinelli . this guy 's on your mind because he 's a potential witness . it has nothing to do with franco . jason : okay , i want to see the video of the homeless guy waving right now . pull it up . okay , run them both at the same time . spinelli : i give you this , it 's eerie , but -- jason : no , run them at the same time , spinelli . you see that right there ? they 're waving the exact same way , and you 're telling me that 's a coincidence ? [ scene_break ] maxie : i do n't care how famous of an artist you are . that was sick and twisted , and you 're perverted . my sister was murdered , so to make me play a dead body without even asking me what i think about it is cruel . franco : i 'm very sorry . i had no idea about your sister . i should be more sensitive . sometimes the conceptual side of my work just takes me away . [ sighs ] but where you see a sick prank , i see the contrast of your incredible beauty , so alive and vital with the ugly violence of the setting . it 's very powerful , but -- no excuse for offending you . maxie : i was n't offended , exactly . franco : well , you called me a sick freak and a pervert . maxie : in a respectful way . franco : [ chuckles ] i 'll call you a cab . i 'd offer to drive you myself , but you probably do n't want to be in a limo or anywhere else with me right now . maxie : you know , this place is kind of amazing when you can actually see it . franco : some men take beautiful women to trendy restaurants and chic bars . i take one to a studio that looks like the artist 's head exploded and his ideas splattered all over the walls . maxie : see , you had me until that last part . franco : clearly , my social skills could use some work . maxie : but i could probably help you with that . do you want to show me around ? franco : my pleasure . maxie : oh , no . it 's your turn .

lisa : well , thanks for being objective while i 'm being tarred and feathered back at the hospital . nikolas : you 're welcome . you know , we all just want what 's fair . that 's all . lisa : speak for yourself . i think you were the only one entertaining the notion that maxie might be lying about me trying to inject robin . nikolas : i promise one way or another , we 'll get to the truth , okay ? lisa : i 'm counting on it . nikolas : all right , listen . i just realized that i left some papers back at the hospital . do you wan na share the umbrella ? lisa : i 'm on my way home , thanks . have a good evening . nikolas : yeah , listen . look , why do n't you just take it ? lisa : are you serious ? really ? nikolas : yeah . absolutely . take it . i 'll be fine . lisa : okay . thank you . lisa : i was gon na call , but i did n't have your number . johnny : do n't worry . i still got it . [ scene_break ] robin : just wait . sonny and brenda need to work things out for themselves . jason : brenda does n't wan na work things out with sonny . robin : what did max say ? did he say that he heard screaming or anything ? jason : no , but , brenda 's always -- robin : then do n't assume the worst . they 're at sonny 's old place . they used to spend a lot of time there . their memories are probably flooding back . with any luck , they 'll admit how much they still love each other . [ scene_break ] lulu : you guys are so busted . dante : whatever you heard was -- lulu : no , no , do n't even try and cover . you guys look like a couple of deer in headlights . it 's obvious you were talking about me . michael : no , actually i was just telling dante that i do n't think it 's fair to either of you for me to be livin ' here . dante : michael , just stop . [ scene_break ] sonny : yeah , wait for it . brenda : what ? sonny : the building to collapse . lightning to strike . brenda : yeah . why is n't that happening ? sonny : well , you always say we 're doomed , right ? brenda : do n't make fun of me . sonny : i 'm just sayin ' . brenda : you know i 'm superstitious . there 's a million reasons why we should n't be together . sonny : are you sure ? [ scene_break ] maxie : i did not frame lisa , and i ca n't believe someone would think something so horrible about me . patrick : maxie , what exactly did you see in robin 's room ? maxie : like i said a million times , i walked in and saw lisa standing over robin with a needle , ready to inject something into her iv . patrick : did maxie say she was gon na frame lisa ? maxie : that was a joke . matt : last night , robin was upset , and maxie , in an effort to cheer her up , was inventing ways to get back at her . i never seriously thought that she was gon na follow through with it . maxie : i thought i could trust you . matt : you can . i just -- maxie : no . no ! none of this is okay ! your wife is in serious danger , and if you 're just gon na ignore me and assume that i 'm a liar , lisa is gon na try to hurt robin again , and something terrible 's gon na happen , and you 're gon na wish you listened to me . patrick : maxie , i know how much you love robin , and you would do anything to protect her . maxie : i would not lie about something like this . patrick : you 've lied before . maxie : well , so have you . i did not frame lisa . that woman is evil . she needs to be stopped . [ scene_break ] johnny : beer , please . lisa : make that 2 . so i owe you an explanation . johnny : seems you were in robin 's room about to drug her with something , and maxie walked in . right ? what 's in this thing , anyway ? lisa : okay , can you put that away ? seriously . johnny : poison ? lisa : no , i would not poison robin . johnny : all right . i believe you . i do n't know you very well , but you 're a doctor . you seem smart , and poison is easily traceable back to you . lisa : okay , so robin has been out to get me ever since i slept with patrick , and i got sick of it , so i went to the board , and i asked that she be fired , and she asked to have a meeting with them , too , and what 's in that is a substance called sodium pentothal . johnny : mmm . lowers the inhibition , like the alcohol . lisa : yeah . yep . it weakens a person 's resolve . it makes them more compliant under pressure . so she can barely contain her hatred towards me as it is , so i was just gon na give her enough so she 'd lose it in front of the hospital board . johnny : and you walk away smellin ' like a rose . lisa : i am not proud of my one - night stand with patrick , but it 's time to move on , and robin just ca n't do it . she wo n't stop trashing me . johnny : so , what , you 're the victim here ? lisa : all i wan na do is clear my name . okay , i am one of the best surgeons at general hospital , and it seems crazy , literally , that my career could be ruined over just a hysterical , vindictive wife . [ scene_break ] robin : i think my perspective is a little bit different than yours , because when i first knew sonny and brenda , that 's when i was falling in love with stone . they were falling in love with each other . and then all that changed , you know ? stone was diagnosed with aids , and he died , and sonny and brenda ended their relationship . i guess part of it was that i wanted someone 's dreams to come true . you know ? it was impossible for me and stone . and now fate has brought them back together , and i think why not ? you know , why should they pass up a chance for happiness when they obviously love each other so much ? jason : okay . all right , from what i saw , sonny and brenda spent a lot more time being miserable than they did being happy . robin : they were a very passionate couple . jason : that 's right . until sonny realized that brenda would n't survive in his world , and he left her , and he sent me to tell her . i just do n't wan na watch brenda go through that again . robin : i know , but even after all these years , they have n't been able to get over each other . i do n't think it 's over . in fact , i do n't think it ever will be . [ scene_break ] dante : look , michael , there 's no way you 're movin ' out . michael : i 'm allowed to have contact with my dad now , and it 's been months since i been out of prison . dante : you 're under court order . michael : i can petition to have my place of residence changed . my dad 's petition worked . maybe mine will , too . lulu : wait . is this about giving me and dante more space ? 'cause you 've done that . michael : you guys need your own privacy . lulu : yeah , but you 've been very sensitive to that . you 've done it enough . michael : my mom kind of wants me to live with her at home , so ... lulu : well , do n't do it because your mom wants you to . do what you wan na do , so stay . michael : okay , i 'll think about it . lulu : wait . michael , where are you going ? michael : i already planned on staying at my mom 's tonight . dante did n't even have to ask . so see you tomorrow . lulu : so you okay ?

[ laughs ] we could not catch a break . brenda : i love that we waited . sonny : so let 's say we try this again , okay ? just see what crazy - ass fate lands on us . i know years have passed . we 've been with other people , but -- are you afraid ? you do n't trust me ? what , are you hidin ' somethin ' ?

[ scene_break ] lisa : i pulled robin and emma out of a burning house , and you know how robin thanked me ? by accusing me of setting the fire . johnny : did you ? lisa : what , risk burning a woman and her child to death ? no . i mean , yes , i have my flaws , but murdering a toddler by arson is where i draw the line . johnny : okay , so what lines wo n't you cross ? because clearly adultery and drugging someone , those are fair game . lisa : okay , i get it . you do n't know me , so you have every right to be suspicious , but i did not set that fire . even the fire marshal exonerated me . yeah , but that did n't stop robin . she just kept on with her campaign of paranoia to just get rid of me . so , yes , i admit i decided to become proactive . what is in that is basically harmless , and you can have it tested if you do n't believe me . johnny : i believe you . i 'd just hate to see maxie caught up in this whole thing . she 's a good friend of mine , and i do n't want her takin ' the heat . lisa : okay , well , i do n't know what to tell you . i mean , maxie 's been egging robin on . you know , it 's hard for me to work up much sympathy for her . johnny : well , like we discussed , you did not rat me out for trying to influence you during sonny 's murder trials . i 'll consider us even for now . lisa : okay , thanks . that seems fair . so can i have the syringe back ? johnny : this syringe ? lisa : mm - hmm . johnny : no . i 'm keepin ' it . yeah . i may need a favor someday , and i 'm gon na expect you to comply , no questions asked .

[ scene_break ] sonny : did you ever meet the balkan ? brenda : no . i heard him on the phone . i heard aleksander on the phone with him , and after i overheard their conversation , i broke up with him and went to new york . i mean , this was back in ' 07 , so ... sonny : when dante was assigned to protect you ? brenda : yeah . sonny : yeah , he told me . brenda : what 'd he tell you ? sonny : well , he said that he did n't think you remembered him . obviously you did n't , so he jogged your memory . brenda : okay , the truth is that i insisted on going for a walk , and he was my guard , so he had to go with me . we cut through this alleyway , and aleksander was there suddenly . i do n't know . he must have been following us , and dante tried to pull his gun on aleksander , and aleksander knocked it out of his hand , and then he jumped on top of dante , and he started choking him . and i thought he was gon na kill him , so i picked up the gun , and i shot aleksander , and he died . dante never reported it . he 's been lying for me this whole time . [ scene_break ] lulu : so your feelings for me are so shallow that edward could buy you off ? dante : well , that depends on the price , really . lulu : really ? so , like , say he offered $ 2 million for you to stay away from me ? dante : wow . lulu : would you take it ? dante : well , yeah . i mean , i love you , baby , but that 's a lot of ferraris we 're talkin ' about . lulu : i ca n't compete with a sports car ? dante : no , you know what a sports car ca n't do is stand by me and believe in me and defend me against the entire world when i made , like , the worst decision of my life . but you , lesley lu spencer , you 'd do that for me . lulu : i 'd do it all over again . dante : of course , a ferrari would cut down on my commute to work , so , you know ...

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : you must be glad to be going home . sam : i 'm not glad about much of anything these days . elizabeth : i 'm really sorry . i did n't mean that . the whole foot - in - mouth thing i do a lot . sam : no , it 's ok . listen , i -- elizabeth : sam , i do n't know if this going to help , but a while ago i suffered a miscarriage . the pain is unspeakable , but it does lessen over time . and believe it or not , one day you 'll just wake up and notice the sun is still shining . jason : you 're ready to go ? elizabeth : she was just released . jason : why did n't you call me ? sam : because you 're not responsible for me anymore , jason . jason : sam , i never was , but i still want to be the one to take you home . [ scene_break ] john : carly , we 've got to get our stories straight . we have to make sure there is no way that ric can accuse you of lying . that is going to be his first step in proving that you started the fire . carly : i did start the fire . that is called arson . and my intention was to burn a file that would incriminate my husband . that is obstruction of justice . you 're a federal prosecutor . why are you helping me avoid prosecution ? john : well , because you 're my daughter , carly , and i love you . [ scene_break ] sonny : how are you feeling ? steven : they say i 'll recover . sonny : maybe i can give you something to look forward to when you get out of here . steven : oh , yeah ? how 's that ? sonny : in your bedroom closet -- ahem -- you 'll find a briefcase with $ 500,000 cash . treat yourself to a nice vacation if you want to ; give it to your best charity , whatever you want . it 's just a token of my appreciation for what you 've done in , you know , the last couple of days . steven : sorry , mr. corinthos , i 'm not interested . i do n't need your money . i do n't need your gratitude . actually , everything i did was for carly 's sake and not yours . sonny : really ? suit yourself . alexis : why were you trying to bribe dr. webber ? [ scene_break ] skye : please explain to me again what part of your plan requires me to be out on the coldest day of the year , freezing my buns off ? luke : it 's simple . as soon as heather thinks she 's got a clear shot at it , she 's going to try to kill edward . being anonymous gardening staff , we get to hide in plain sight and keep an eye on her . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] edward : i did n't know you were in here . heather : please do n't go . i would love to spend some time alone with you . tracy : ooh , i bet you would . heather : if you do n't mind , i 'm trying to have a private conversation with my husband . tracy : not for long . i am so pleased to announce that my father 's attorneys have filed all the necessary paperwork , and as of midnight this farce of a marriage will be over ! heather : is this true ? edward : every blessed word . [ phone rings ] luke : spencer . heather : hello , luke . it 's heather . where are you ? luke : nowhere , really , in particular . i 'm just doing errands . heather : well , i need you here at the quartermaines ' . time is running out . we 've got to take care of edward once and for all . [ scene_break ] justus : i can argue that the confession was obtained under duress and without the benefit of counsel , which is a direct violation of your civil rights . nikolas : justus , i killed helena . i 'm ready to accept the consequences . thank you for coming , but i wo n't be needing your services . justus : i think you 're making a very big mistake . nikolas : maybe i am . emily : thanks , anyway . justus : i 'm available if you change your mind . i 'd seriously consider doing that if i were you . emily : why are you doing this to yourself ? why are you doing it to me ? [ scene_break ] [ door opens and closes ] sam : where are my baby 's things ? jason : in the nursery . i did n't know what to do with them . you know , at first , i thought i would just throw everything away or give everything away and then paint the room so there would be no sign of her when you came home . but then i realized that , you know , maybe you needed to see the things again and then decide for yourself . sam : ok . that 's good because i want to see them . jason : sam , wait . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't know how to respond . john : well , in a perfect world , i suppose , to hear you say the words right back at me , but i know that i have n't completely earned your trust . trust is something that 's earned . so when it 's there , when the time is right , nothing will make me happier in this world than to hear you say those words -- not a moment sooner . are we clear ? now , of course , i reserve the right to say them to you anytime i want to . carly : you 're an amazing man . you know that ? thank you . thank you for giving me room , thank you for understanding how confusing all of this is for me , and -- john : hey . carly : for protecting me from the fallout of my more questionable impulses . john : hey , hey , hey , look . you 're just trying to protect your family . you 're looking out for the best interests of your children . that 's all i 'm trying to do here . all right ? [ scene_break ] alexis : are you going to tell me that i 'm a neurotic and that was just my fevered imagination and deny what i just heard ? sonny : why would i bother ? you 're going to think the worst , like you always do , anyway . alexis : so then you admit that you were bribing dr. webber ? sonny : i admit nothing . alexis : of course not . you never do . i 'm in possession of a file that documents your illegal activities . i need you do what 's best for kristina , and then you 're a free man . you can go back to your criminal life that you 've chosen , back to your sons . if you refuse , i 'm going to hand ric the files . sonny : i 'll do what you want . alexis : good choice . ric : excuse me . you want to stop harassing my wife ? [ scene_break ] heather : i 'm glad you 're here . luke , we ca n't put this off any longer . you have to kill edward tonight , before midnight . [ scene_break ] edward : hey , gardener ? what are you doing to keep my wife 's roses from freezing this winter ? skye : shh ! not so loud ! edward : skye , what are you doing lurking in the terrace ? skye : i 'm waiting for luke . he 's inside , working heather . edward : there 's nothing to worry about . the marriage will be annulled by midnight tonight . skye : edward , you are underestimating heather , and that is a really big mistake . heather means to kill you . [ scene_break ] luke : of course i 've already agreed that edward has to die , but i ca n't do it . heather , i ca n't get close enough to him . heather : you 're not backing out on me , are you ? luke : of course not . my contribution to edward 's untimely demise will be a nasty , lethal dose of lydochloradine . heather : that sounds helpful . but the drug must be restricted . how are you going to get it ? luke : you forget my sister is head surgical nurse at g.h . i 'll just swing by the hospital , pick up a lethal dose , you drop it in his evening cocktail , and we 're that much closer to heaven . heather : i like it . i like you . you got style , mr. spencer . [ scene_break ] emily : you 're not just throwing away your own future . you 're throwing away mine as well , and for what , nikolas ? helena ? nikolas : i 'm doing this for us , emily . emily : for -- nikolas : yeah . well , listen to me . what kind of marriage could we have , knowing that we covered up a murder ? knowing that any second , i could be blackmailed , not just by connor , but by anyone who wanted to investigate helena 's death ? that 's the kind of secret that destroys a relationship , and i wo n't let that happen to us . emily : that is the most incredibly selfish thing that i have ever heard . ca n't you see that you 're betraying everything that we have together ? [ scene_break ] ric : there 's no need to try to intimidate alexis . it 's not going to work , anyway . sonny : you know , i 'm going to get custody of kristina , and you probably love the fact that i 'm going after my daughter because if i was n't , then alexis would n't need you , and this twisted arrangement you guys call a marriage would be over , and then how would you come after me , little brother ? i do n't know if you know this or not , but -- i live inside your husband 's head . so that 's another thing you 're just going to have to get used to . ric : you ok ? alexis : i appreciate your effort to defend me , but i really need to handle this by myself . ric : yeah , well , you should n't have to . but my brother did bring up an interesting point . if -- excuse me -- when you get full custody of kristina , what 's going to happen between us ? alexis : somewhere along the way i have learned to trust you and count on you , and i 've learned that you care about me . and more importantly , you care about my daughter . i think there 's a good possibility that i might even like being married to you . [ scene_break ] sam : jason , you really do n't have to fuss over me , please . jason : i 'm not , i 'm not . in fact , i got to go out . there 's a lot going on with sonny and the business . sam : are you ok ? jason : yeah , so far . sonny is in some serious trouble , and i got to do what i can to help him . sam : ok , good . go . i mean -- jason : are you sure ? sam : i understand , yeah . jason : are you sure ? because i can have emily come over and -- sam : no , jason , no . please , i really -- i need to be alone right now . jason : look , i 'm not -- i 'm not telling you what to do , but , you know , for what it 's worth , i went into her room , and it 's hard . you know , i do n't usually care about things , clothes . but walking into that nursery and seeing , you know , the toys you picked out -- it was -- [ jason sighs ] jason : just do n't rush , ok ? do n't push yourself before you 're ready . sam : ok . jason : ok . [ knock on door ] man : ms. mccall ? ms. quartermaine 's here to see you . sam : send her in . emily : thank you . sam : ahem . that was fast , even for jason . i told him i did not need a chaperone . emily : what ? i 'm sorry ? sam : did n't he call you ? emily : no , no . i 'm here about -- are you all right ? sam : it depends on your definition . but you look upset , and unfortunately jason is n't here . i 'm really sorry . he 's working . i have no idea when he 's going to be home . sam : emily , i doubt there 's much that i can do , but if you want to get something out , i 'm a really good listener . emily : you know , sam , i do n't want to dump my problems on you . you 've been through enough . sam : you would be making me feel useful . emily : nikolas confessed to helena 's murder . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . nikolas : hi . elizabeth : i came as soon as i got your message . what 's going on ? nikolas : i need your help . do n't worry , i 'm not going to ask you hide a dead body or cover up a murder or anything . elizabeth : oh , thank god . that 's a relief . nikolas : it 's obvious that emily and i wo n't be getting married next wednesday , and it just occurred to me that we need someone to cancel things -- the florist , the caterer , tell the guests . and it 's probably too late to send emily 's dress back , so maybe you can hold on to it . i just do n't want it , you know , sitting in her closet as a reminder of what did n't happen . elizabeth : with all due respect , nikolas , that 's emily 's decision . you really should n't make it for her . nikolas : elizabeth , i do n't want emily to put her life on hold while i spend god knows how much time in prison . elizabeth : so you 're , what , going to break up with her ? nikolas : at least break the engagement , yeah . elizabeth : you know what , nikolas ? you 're being a macho , pigheaded jerk right now . of course emily is going to wait for you . she loves you more than anything . but she is allowed just five minutes to adjust to the choices you 've made since it affects everything she was expecting from the future . do you know where she is right now ? nikolas : she got mad and stormed out of here . elizabeth : yeah , well , i bet she 's off trying to find a way to hold on to what the two of you have together . maybe you should try doing the same . [ scene_break ] ric : so , alexis tells me that you had a little visit from sonny . steven : yeah , that 's right . ric : so , how long have you been working for him ? steven : come again ? ric : nah , come on , let 's not try to play it off here . you know that you torched my apartment on sonny 's orders . steven : ric , the only work i 've done for sonny is as physician to his children . ric : well , you 're not treating any of them from a hospital bed . steven : ok , you know what ? not that it 's any of your business , but if you must know , sonny came to see about kristina , when she might be released from the hospital . ric : oh , ok . steven : oh , and you still do n't believe me . ric : well , frankly , no . steven : the jacket that i was wearing at the fire is in that closet . why do n't you go look in the pocket , ric ? ric : the tox screen from the weston case . steven : yeah . i was dropping it off on the way home . that 's why i was at your apartment . i smelled the smoke , then i saw the flames , so i kicked in the door . ric : hmm . steven : thought you might 've been inside . i was actually -- i was basically trying to save your life . so a little gratitude might be in order . ric : well , you are a compelling liar , and you come complete with props . anyone would be impressed , but you know what ? i 'm not buying it . we both know that you are no innocent in this . and if you did n't torch my apartment , then you 're covering for the real arsonist , and that would be carly corinthos . [ scene_break ] carly : hello , alexis . alexis : hi . carly : how 's kristina doing ? alexis : she 's doing much better , thank you . carly : good . that 's good to hear . alexis : i 'm very grateful . carly : alexis , are you grateful enough to reconsider the custody ultimatum and try and find a compromise with sonny ? alexis : carly , i need to continue to protect my daughter and consider her best interests -- which is retaining sole custody . carly : listen , i understood your initial rationale . kristina was safer if no one knew sonny was her father -- then she was n't perceived as a target . the game 's over , alexis . the truth is out , so why not let sonny be a parent ? he 's a good father , and kristina would benefit from having him in her life . and that 's one of the reasons i am testifying on his behalf , even though we are not together . alexis : you 're testifying to get back at me , carly , because you blame me for destroying your marriage . [ scene_break ] sonny : alexis has a copy of the file . she threatened to give it to ric if i do n't go through with the custody hearing . jason : sonny , i do n't understand . if the hearing does n't mean anything , why go through the motions ? sonny : well -- jason : why put everybody -- sonny : because she thinks that i 'm going to have some hallelujah moment on the stand , where i realize that i 'm a danger to my own daughter and kristina 's better off with her mother . jason : i do n't -- i mean , i hate to say it , but it does n't sound like you have much of a choice , because if alexis gives that file to ric it 's over . we 're done . [ scene_break ] emily : i ca n't believe that after everything we 've been through , that i 'm going to lose him because he tried to protect me from his witch of a grandmother . sam : emily , a person really is n't lost until they 're dead . emily : sam , i 'm so sorry . that must 've sounded incredibly insensitive . this is exactly why i should n't be here . sam : no . no , no , no , no . look , i am not trying to make you feel bad . i 'm just -- i 'm just trying to make you see that there 's still hope . you and nikolas love each other and , ok , he is making a difficult choice right now , one that you feel is absolutely stupid and wrong , but it 's a brave choice . and one day he 's going to be out , and you 're going to be waiting for him , and the two of you are going to be able to pick up where you left off . to me , that 's worth holding on to . [ scene_break ] nurse : you did n't touch your food . steven : see , it 's not food . it 's a cardboard - like substance , and it is determined to hinder my otherwise speedy recovery . nurse : hmm . steven : yeah . nurse : well , maybe you lack incentive . what if i offered to spoon - feed you your next meal ? steven : i think i would definitely regain my appetite . nurse : well , i 'll see what i can work out . hi . elizabeth : hi . well , well , well . someone 's feeling better . steven : for a guy who nearly burned to death ? elizabeth : is there a reason for this amazing resilience ? steven : hmm . elizabeth : a woman perhaps ? steven : well , maybe . yeah . i mean , there 's someone , and i thought that things were n't going to be able to work out , but circumstances have changed and , well , it looks like -- looks like something might work out . carly : do i think you 're a selfish bitch who will do anything to get what she wants ? yeah . do i regret not telling sonny the truth about kristina ? you bet . but i do not blame you for the end of my marriage . sonny and i split for personal reasons , and i will not give you that much power or that much credit . but luckily sonny and i have salvaged some things , and we care about each other enough to help one another . and that is why i 'm testifying on his behalf . alexis : do you even hear your hypocrisy ? sonny is trying to take kristina the same way he tried to take away your sons , and you fought like hell . you would do anything . you even blackmailed me into defending you . and you stand there and you condemn me for doing the same thing ? carly : it 's not the same thing . you convinced yourself that sonny will put kristina 's life at risk . alexis : he does . good fathers are n't career criminals . good fathers do n't pose clear , present , and ongoing danger to their children . i will do whatever i can to protect my daughter . you take the stand if you choose to . take it at your own risk , because ric will tear you to shreds . carly : go ahead and sling all the mud that you want . i can take it . and we will see who looks worse when i testify that i wanted to tell sonny the truth about kristina 's paternity as soon as she was diagnosed and you wanted to wait until the last possible moment . then we will see who looks like an unfit mother . [ scene_break ] sonny : ok , according to justus , if we can prove that ric obtained that file illegally , like if he broke in -- jason : right , right , right . then it 's inadmissible . that 's the way we have to go . sonny : i want you to question everybody who had access to that file , find out who could have stolen it , turned it over to ric , because by the time i take the stand at that custody hearing , i want to be able to prove that ric obtained that file illegally . that way i have the leverage over alexis . jason : so you 're going to wait till the hearing and then surprise alexis ? sonny : i 'm going to do what i got to do . i just lost my daughter . i 'm not going to lose another child of mine . [ scene_break ] skye : why do you have to be so literal ? i mean , do you have to steal the actual drug that heather 's going to actually use to try and poison edward ? why ca n't you just let her give him the placebo ? luke : darling , we 're trying to catch heather in the act of actually killing him with real poison . skye : which leaves edward defenseless , left to heather 's nonexistent mercy . luke : she 's not going to do anything without me . she needs me as an active participant . that gives her cover and also something to hold over me later . skye : why do you let her slobber all over you like that ? luke : it 's all for the cause . it 's just business . skye : do you actually enjoy kissing her ? luke : i hate it . really . the only lips i 'm into right now are yours . skye : oh . ok , so , say this plan works , that we catch heather in the act of trying to kill edward . what next ? do we call the police ? do we have her thrown into the facility for the criminally insane ? what ? luke : i 'm going to try to strike a deal with her -- her freedom for my wife . skye : absolutely not . [ scene_break ] heather : oh ! help me , please ! someone , help ! edward : what 's going on ? heather : you came . edward : you called for my help . what do you mean , i -- heather : i wanted to see if you cared , and you still do . i can see it . edward : i 'm tired of your games . heather : i 'm not playing games . i 'm fighting for my life -- ours together . the annulment -- it 's just -- it 's all wrong . do n't you see that ? tracy 's manipulating you . edward : you 're unbelievable , you know that ? you 're the manipulator . all you wanted was my money . you used my pain over the loss of my wife against me . heather : that 's not true . edward : it 's over , heather . give it up . heather : i can see that you mean that . ok , edward . i care for you too much not to give you what you want . i 'll agree to the annulment . edward : wise decision . heather : wait , i just want you to know one thing . despite how this is ending , the time i spent with you was the happiest time of my whole life . [ edward sighs ] heather : so i was wondering if you 'd be willing to join me in a drink , a toast to what might 've been . edward : why not ? heather : so long , edward . it 's been real . edward : well , there 's nothing wrong with being a little civil , now , is there ? you did something -- something 's wrong . what -- what did you do , heather ? what did you do ? heather : do n't worry , edward . it 's nothing . it 's not poison . it 's just something to help you sleep . edward : ohh . heather : here you go . i need you to be very still . tracy : daddy ? daddy ? whew . i love you , you know , even though you 're a stubborn old fool . ooh . [ scene_break ] jason : meyer swears that he dropped the file off at the penthouse friday the 12th . do you remember that ? carly : yeah , he came by , he left the file on the desk , and he said it was urgent ; it needed sonny 's attention , but honestly i did n't pay that much attention to it , jason . i was busy with other stuff , and then michael -- he ran downstairs and he thought sonny was at the door , and i explained to him then that we had to move to the new house . jason : was that the day you moved ? carly : yeah , we started packing right away . jason : did anyone go near sonny 's desk ? carly : michael was sorting through comics there . jason : and then what ? carly : he dumped them in a box . jason : could it be possible that the file got mixed in with michael 's comics ? carly : i suppose , jason , but what does it matter ? the file was destroyed , right ? jason : carly , it matters . what happened next ? carly : we packed and we moved right away . jason : yeah , but max told me that durant came by that day . carly : yeah , he helped us move . jason : was he ever alone with those boxes ? carly : he was sorting through them at the house , and , yeah , michael and i -- we left the room together . jason : all right , thanks . carly : jason ? you obviously think that my father stole that file . you have to be mistaken , ok ? he did everything he could to stop ric from using that file against sonny . jason : or he wanted you to think he did to cover up what really happened . carly , i 'm sorry . i just think durant took advantage of you to steal the file in the first place . carly : jason , i want you to find out the truth , and if it turns out that you have proof that my father stole that file , i want you to promise me i will be the first to know . [ scene_break ] sonny : carly agreed to testify on my behalf , which , you know , is great . jordan : well , i 'd like to review the testimony beforehand . sonny : yeah , that 's no problem . jordan : and i 'd like to reopen the possibility of calling samantha mccall . sonny : no -- jordan : it 'll help our case if we can get her to testify about how alexis verbally abused her in the hospital chapel . sonny : no , i do n't want sam involved . she 's grieving for our daughter . whatever alexis did to her in the chapel -- however we can use it -- it 's not worth it to me to ask sam to relive the most painful moments of her life . [ scene_break ] nikolas : listen -- nikolas and emily : i 'm sorry . nikolas : i should n't -- emily : i -- nikolas : go ahead . emily : i should n't have stormed out the way i did , and i should n't have called you selfish . i was angry and afraid , and i know that you 're doing what you believe is right . nikolas : emily , i 'm sorry that i took so much away from us . emily : well , we 'll deal with it . this is what it means to be a couple . for better or worse , you go through life together . nikolas : yeah . yeah , i agree . i want to marry you right -- emily : will you go through the -- nikolas : now . emily : what ? i love you , nikolas . nikolas : i love you . emily : and i want to be your wife , no matter what . nikolas : come here .

[ scene_break ] mac : sit down . mac : you think i do n't know what 's happening here , jason ? sonny killed andrei karpov to avenge kate howard getting shot . karpov is middle management in the russian mob . and his people retaliated by blowing up one of your truck yards , killing two guards , burning down kelly 's , and leaving mike corbin beaten half to death . then they hit your coffee house and sent two more innocent people to the hospital . oh , and not that you care , my daughter was also attacked . jason : mac , i hate all of this , especially what happened to maxie . mac : then you admit you 're trying to shut down the russians by hitting back harder . that 's why you lured them to the warehouse , fired off a few rounds , then blew the place sky high . three people were killed , and we 're still digging through the rubble , jason . correct me if i 'm wrong , but this was n't the first strike . yeah , i think you 're not going to stop until they 're either all dead or out of your territory , right ? i mean , it 's an interesting strategy that probably works for the mob , but in the real world where the rest of us live , jason , it 's called murder . you 're going to pay for it this time . the russians -- no , the russians , you see , they 're just a symptom . you -- you and your organization are the disease . and i 'm going to shut you down . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i wo n't be selling wyndemere under any circumstance . jax : well , i 'm sure you 'll reconsider once the golf balls come crashing through your stained glass windows . [ nikolas chuckles ] nikolas : that 's funny . well , that 's not going to happen because this resort of yours that you 've dreamed up is never going to be built . in fact , my attorneys are probably getting my lease renewed as we speak . i 'm certainly not going to live surrounded by tourists . jax : you 're right . you 're probably going to have to move out . i mean , why live with the inconvenience if you do n't have your horses or your grounds . those beautiful open pastures , they 're going to be golf courses and parking garages . i 'm going to build condos along most of the cliffs . well , i 'll be happy to leave you a view of the metro court since you 're so fond of it . nikolas : that 's all right . i 'll keep my view . do n't you worry about that . you know what ? should i just go ahead with my original plan and force you out of the metro court completely just because i can ? jax : you know , nikolas , you 'll have a hell of a lot more to worry about here at home , at least while you can still call it home . i 'm just wondering what i should do with this place , if i should tear it down or renovate it . carly : you have never cared about spoon island , much less been interested in wyndemere . this whole place is creepy and a lot of bad things have happened here . it would be a very hard sell as a resort and spa . jax : that 's a good point . she has a good point . you know , i 'll have to tear it down . nikolas : you do n't own wyndemere , jax , only the land around it , arguably at that . jax : i will own everything soon . carly : okay , stop . i do n't want some minor deal to turn into a huge fight over nothing , especially when i have the most to lose here . jax : you could n't sell your shares to the metro court to nikolas fast enough . carly : he just agreed to sell them back . jax : you know , i could probably put together some kind of package deal . i 'm sure that the hotel will only help the resort and vice versa . nikolas : i do n't think you -- you 're really getting this , jax . there will be nothing built . either i win back the lease or i keep you tied up in court for years , your choice . jax : do n't worry , nikolas . it 'll be very high end , no peasants allowed . carly : stop . you 're being completely unreasonable and you know it . jax : at one point , i would 've listened to you , but that time has come and gone . [ nikolas chuckles ] nikolas : are you building this resort because you want to punish wife -- what , five , six , seven ? jax : no , nikolas , this is -- this is simply business , okay ? this has nothing to do with my personal life . carly : really ? then think , jax . it 's winter . no one starts building a resort in upstate new york in the winter . no , this is n't a good investment . you 're doing this to get back at me because of what happened with sonny and you know it . jax : this is a perfectly legal development of an unutilized property . that 's it . that 's all there -- there 's only one question , really -- what do we call the place ? the resort and spa at spoon island -- that 's a little long , right ? spoon island spa , spoon island spa -- what do you think , guys ? nikolas : you keep pushing and i 'll take everything you have . [ scene_break ] lulu : i will love you , no matter what you do , but i think you should think about what it costs to be in your family versus what it would cost to leave . johnny : i 've left before and i told you what happened . my father killed the family who tried to help me . lulu : that was a long time ago . your father is not as crazy as he used to be . johnny : okay , but do n't bet on that , okay ? even if i did leave , what then ? i have a high school diploma and no job experience . college was never an option , so really , the only thing in life that i know how to do is drive fast and shoot guns . lulu : you could always give piano lessons . coleman : i could set you up with a keyboard and a tip jar over there in the corner . every joint needs a piano player now and then . lulu : see ? look at that . you make a choice and then all of a sudden , things happen . well , i got to head to work soon . you should think about leaving , too . johnny : let 's get out of here . lulu : what , us ? where ? johnny : i do n't know , wherever . lulu : whoa -- johnny : thanks . lulu : okay . [ chuckling ] i am so driving . [ scene_break ] olivia : so what do you want me to tell connie ? sonny : let me -- olivia : exactly . sonny : i 'll take care of it . olivia : no . sonny : yeah , i will . olivia : family -- i do n't want her to hear this from anyone else but me . claudia : it 's amazing what we 'll do in the name of family , is n't it ? olivia : do n't get me wrong , sonny . i 'm not surprised , just disappointed . claudia : you were hoping for one of these for yourself ? olivia : i just wish you could 've been honest with connie . and i wish she could understand what power really means to you . sonny : olivia , you got to understand something , okay ? kate and i , we 're not together right now . and she -- she -- you know , she 'll understand what i 'm trying to do here , okay ? but you were right from the start . you were right from the start . somebody in the business should n't be with somebody out of the business . olivia : right . well , you 're lying down with dogs here . and you do n't need me to tell you this is not going to end well . [ door closes ] claudia : so , which cousin are you really in love with , kate or olivia ? [ scene_break ] jax : you want to come after me , nikolas , by all means , have at it . nikolas : you 'll regret that attitude . jax : why , am i being too cavalier , not respectful enough to the prince ? were n't you the one that started all this when you decided to buy my hotel on a whim ? nikolas : oh , i see , no one can challenge the mighty jasper jacks , right ? jax : no , no , no , by all means , go ahead . i mean , this is what i do , nikolas . this is my business . it 's what i do all day long . the higher you raise the stakes , the more fun it becomes for me . nikolas : i 'm giving you the opportunity to back down . if you have any respect at all for carly , accept her offer and we can all move on . carly : you know , i think we need to stop here because you guys are both crossing lines and it 's getting a little ridiculous . we need to take a deep breath and back off before this gets out of control . i do n't want us to look back six months from now and regret the choices we 're making here . jax : i 'm done looking back . i 'm dealing with reality . and the reality is i own spoon island and i 'm going to develop it as i see fit , just like i 'll soon own this travesty . carly : i 'm sorry . nikolas : it 's all right . i 'm really going to enjoy bringing him down . [ scene_break ] maxie : i chose the light blue silk because `` couture `` had it planned for spring . kate : how did you know that ? maxie : i have my sources . we scooped them by at least three months . and federico is very happy to debut his new line with us . kate : yes , well , clarice says that you refuse to run anything by her . maxie : i was just trying to get the magazine out the door . kate : clarice is the junior editor . you are the first assistant . you clearly took quite a lot on . i mean , really , who would wear this kinoflutch to a formal event ? maxie : everyone i know . olivia : hey , lay off the kid , will you , connie ? come on . kate : we 're busy , olivia . olivia : what 's wrong with the pictures ? kate : it 's called a layout . olivia : well , i think it looks great . just so you know , maxie wanted to run everything past you . i would n't let her because i did n't want you disturbed in the hospital . you should be very grateful to her . she got your magazine out to the stands on time . kate : mm - hm . olivia : how you feeling , honey ? i heard you got roughed up a little bit . kate : what do you want , olivia ? olivia : could you give us a second ? maxie : yes , i will send these faxes out . olivia : i do n't know quite how to say this . kate : sonny 's marrying claudia , is n't he ? olivia : he 's getting engaged as we speak . kate : okay , do n't . do n't . you know you would rather have him marry claudia than me . olivia : are you crazy ? kate : what ? i 'm crazy ? now you can convince yourself that you still have a chance . [ scene_break ] claudia : well , i 'm liking the idea of this marriage more and more . not only does it make sense from a business standpoint -- two for one . i get to save you from getting caught between the cousins from hell . sonny : you keep running your filthy mouth , there 's not going to be a marriage . claudia : oh . sonny : kate and olivia are off limits . i do n't want you to insult them . i do n't want you to call them any names . just try to avoid them as much as possible . and if you ca n't , treat them with respect . claudia : that 's fine for olivia . i ca n't stand her , but at least she is who she says she is . i do n't know that i can honestly fake any respect for kate howard . she 's a fake and she 's a snob and i 'm saving you -- you should be grateful -- from a deadly dull marriage . sonny : then hand over the ring and get out of here . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hi , cameron . here 's a marshmallow . go ahead and eat it . and here 's a cracker for you , mr. jake . there you go . sam : i need you to do me a favor . you got to listen to your mommy because she 's going to tell you a secret , okay ? elizabeth : okay , hey , listen . sam and i are planning ... a surprise for you guys out in the living room , okay ? sam : big one . elizabeth : so it 's really important that you stay in this fort . i do n't want you coming out at all , okay ? you promise me ? and i 'm going to stay in here for as long as i can , all right ? [ footsteps ] sam : i 'll be right back . [ loud noise ] cameron : what is it , mommy ? elizabeth : i do n't know -- shh . you know when i tickle your belly ... elizabeth : hey , cameron , take care of your brother for a minute , okay ? okay , baby , i 'll be right back . stay in the fort . sam : it 's me . elizabeth : what was that noise ? sam : it 's part of the surprise . [ muttering ] can i show you ? elizabeth : yeah . you guys stay in your fort . i 'll be right back . cameron : okay . [ jake babbles ] cameron : no , no , no , no , no . sam : so the shotgun was on the top shelf over there . i accidentally tipped over some stuff trying to get it . do you think you could use this if you had to ? [ scene_break ] diane : the next time you hypothetically carry out an armed assault on a rival gang , do you think you could possibly change your clothes before the police arrive to arrest you ? jason : it 's not exactly illegal to dress this way . diane : that 's very true . but as you might have surmised , the pcpd is feeling rather ineffectual right now . kelly 's was a beloved institution . your coffee house was a known mob hangout , although it sold world class espresso . the fact that both places were easily , almost casually destroyed does not sit well with anyone nor does the fact that the police commissioner 's daughter was attacked . so the warehouse explosion looks like obvious and very dangerous retaliation and has everyone on edge . let 's put it simply . the police need a dumping ground for all their anger and frustration . and guess what ? it 's you . jason : okay , you know , guess what ? i do n't care because i do n't care about the politics . just get me out of here . i have things to do . diane : if that is code for further retaliation , i 'm going to strongly advise against it . you can not afford to be associated with any more violence . jason : you know that i 'm not going to be connected to that warehouse . diane : i have no doubt . jason : well , i do n't have time to sit here for 48 hours until the police admit that they have no evidence . diane : this might be a good sign . the d.a . just walked in . let 's hope i can get alexis to listen to reason . [ scene_break ] claudia : marriage is supposed to be about compromise . so , give and take -- if i agree to treat the people in your life with respect , i expect the same -- no remarks about john or my father . sonny : yeah , yeah , that 's fair . claudia : and about us , we 're not strangers who met in a bar . i 'll stop acting like it if you will . sonny : okay . claudia : marriage to me is not going to make you a better person , but i really do n't want to bring out the very worst of you , either . sonny : mm - hm . claudia : so , i 'm never going to be a madonna , but i do n't want to be treated like a whore . sonny : yeah , i -- i understand . claudia : i mean , i 'm not -- i 'm not saying that you have to like me , and -- and nobody 's asking you to pretend to love me , but i need you to treat me with consideration and i 'll treat you the same . deal ? sonny : deal . claudia : wow , thank you . sonny : yeah , i wanted to do it right . claudia : awesome . it 's traditional for you to put it on my finger . claudia : i 'm not totally clear on all the rules for an arranged marriage , but you putting the ring on my finger would seem pretty standard . sonny : the ring is strictly business . claudia : well , i could argue that all engagement rings are business . we 're just being honest about it . sonny : yeah , well , you know , after seeing how your father treated you , i understand you a little more , and it 's very clear to me how much you love your brother . and the fact you 're doing this for the sake of your family , you know , means something . so , everything that 's happened between us before , let 's just leave that behind us . claudia : okay . sonny : and you do know this is going to be very , very difficult for both of us . claudia : sonny , come on . you 've survived worse than being married to me . sonny : well , yeah , so you -- we both understand how this works . so , this ring is basically a sign of respect . [ scene_break ] carly : coleman , i need a beer . coleman : you got it . carly : hi . actually , i 'll have whatever she 's having . olivia : one of those days , too ? carly : you ca n't imagine . olivia : you know what ? when you get a chance , we 're going to need a couple of extra shots over here . coleman : you got it . carly : wow . i have n't even had the first one . olivia : well , go ahead with that one . when you hear what i 've got to say , you 'll need an extra , too . carly : okay . oh . okay , what ? olivia : it 's official . sonny 's going to marry claudia zacchara . carly : oh . [ scene_break ] mac : we have to work together on this , alexis . look , i know you have history with jason and you 're friends with diane , but we are not talking about some principle of law here . maxie was attacked , all right ? mike corbin is still in the hospital . if we do n't get this situation under control , a lot of innocent people are going to get hurt . alexis : i agree . [ scene_break ] diane : well , this does not look good . jason : how can you tell ? diane : strictly speaking , it is never to your advantage for the police commissioner and the district attorney to be getting along . alexis is on edge . the political pressure is getting brutal . jerry is presumed dead and the fact that she was known to be openly involved with him makes her look bad . now , if she were to go easy on you , it would look even worse . jason : they have no evidence . diane : point taken . all right , i will see what i can do . diane : alexis , i 'm so glad you 're here . i know you share my concern about what 's happening in this city . alexis : i 'm district attorney . it 's my job to be here . diane : well , that 's certainly true , but since you have arrested my client for no reason and there 's no evidence , you need to let him go . mac : not gon na happen . alexis : can i talk to diane in private for a minute ? alexis : all right , look , this is a good time for you to step down from this case . let jason get another lawyer or let him rely on a public defender . diane : and walk away from my retainer ? not a chance . alexis : diane , i am looking out for you , lawyer to lawyer . this is not a case you want to lose . it will be too public . and in the interest of public safety , you do n't want to win it , either . you need to distance yourself from this because this time , jason has gone too far . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i have never used -- uh -- fired a shotgun before . sam : okay , then what about this ? elizabeth : yeah , jason taught me how to use one of those -- sam : fine , you take this , i will take the shotgun . elizabeth : um , you 're going to have to tell me again . just remind me -- sam : okay . okay , this -- this here -- this is the safety . make sure it stays off , because the gun is loaded . do not point it at anybody unless you 're prepared to use it and look , if you give somebody , like , a second to think about it , they 're going to start playing mind games with you , so just keep reminding yourself it 's either you or them . that 's it . elizabeth : okay . sam : okay ? elizabeth : how many guys do you think are out there ? sam : i do n't know . i only saw one . elizabeth : do you think he saw you ? sam : yes , he saw us . he followed us here , elizabeth . yeah . elizabeth : when are they going to come after us ? sam : i do n't know . they 're probably making sure that we 're alone right now . elizabeth : was n't lucky going to come up here after work and check on us ? sam : we just need to focus on us right now , and right now we 're alone . they 're probably not going to assume that we have guns , that we 're armed , so it 's actually working in our favor . elizabeth , you just need to stay calm , okay ? elizabeth : okay . i 'm going to go check on the boys . sam : good idea . [ jake babbles ] elizabeth : sam ... look , i know we 've had our differences , but will you please promise me that no matter what happens tonight , you 'll protect my boys ? elizabeth : thank god the boys are asleep . but they 're going to wake up if we have to start shooting . sam : yeah , i know , but we have them as safe as we can . elizabeth : cameron is going to be so terrified if he wakes up to gunshots . sam : you ca n't think about that right now . look , elizabeth , what you asked me to promise before ? letting that woman walk away with jake in the park is probably the worst thing that i 've ever done and i do n't expect you to ever forgive me for that . but i promise you i will not let anything happen to either one of those boys . i will lay down my life for them . elizabeth : but it 's not going to come to that , right ? elizabeth : this is all happening because of jason . he warned me to stay away from him . everyone warned me to stay away from him and i would n't listen . and because i would n't listen , now my boys are in danger and -- [ elizabeth sighs ] sam : you 've got to stop second - guessing yourself , okay ? all we need to focus on right now is keeping those boys safe . so you need to take a deep breath and just let the adrenaline kick in . elizabeth : okay . sam : you 've gone through hell to keep those kids safe . you 're strong enough to get through this . [ scene_break ] kate : how difficult is it to make a drinkable cup of coffee ? maxie : i would be glad to make you another cup . kate : right , which is not the same as making it right the first time . maxie , do you not think for a moment that i believe olivia made a single choice in this issue ? i know that you took over . the theme is off topic . the message is diffused . the styles are way too erratic . you know , i do , i want some coffee . maxie : kate , i get that you 're upset . but i just got out of the hospital and i 'm here doing the best that i can . and i think i did an okay job running things while you were gone , even though clarice tried to undercut me every step of the way . i am really sorry that you and sonny are n't together anymore . i think it 's very unproductive of you to take it out on me . kate : i would appreciate it , maxie , if you spent a little less time on my personal life and a little more on being first assistant . [ doorbell rings ] [ door opens ] maxie : hi . jax : hi , maxie . nice work on the issue . numbers are way up . kate : that will be all , maxie . maxie : okay . jax : see you later . maxie : thanks . bye . jax : you 've got some assistant there . kate : uh - huh . jax : she turned what could have been a disaster for `` crimson `` into the best numbers we 've ever seen , especially with the youth demographic -- kate : you know what ? i do n't want to talk about the magazine . jax : that 's fine . kate : no , i do n't . you know what i want to do ? i want to celebrate . i want to celebrate not making the worst mistake of my life . jax : i know exactly what you mean . [ scene_break ] carly : you know , i 'm not at all surprised that sonny is marrying claudia zacchara . i 'm not . i 'm a little sad , but not -- olivia : by that , you mean jealous ? carly : no . olivia : no ? carly : no . we have children . there 's always going to be a connection . of course , i will always care if he lives or dies . but beyond that , i -- i really want to say that i do n't care , but i ca n't because i do and i do n't know why . i ca n't even explain it , you know ? even when i hate him , i know sonny better than anybody else and he knows me the same . and if he ever needs me , because eventually he always does , i will be there for him like a big , fat sucker . olivia : some guys just have that effect , i guess . carly : sonny has this hold on me . and because of that hold , it ruins every single relationship i try to have . olivia : well , maybe you do n't want the other ones to work out . maybe you 're just looking for an excuse to go back to sonny . carly : no . jax was the perfect man for me . and i hurt him so badly , i have no idea what he 's going to do . [ scene_break ] claudia : you know , it 's ironic . i spent all these years swearing that i would never get married , and here i am , getting married to help out the family that taught me to avoid marriage . sonny : i still do n't know what you 're getting out of it . claudia : what , you mean besides you as my husband and the honor of being the third mrs. sonny corinthos ? sonny : yeah , that 's what i mean . claudia : my father needs me for the first time in my life , and that feels good . sonny : you do understand that i call every shot ... for your father , for you , even for your brother ? claudia : that 's fine . john 's not ready to take over . just do n't try to cut him out . sonny : we 'll see what we can , you know , we can do with him . i mean , it depends on where he 's at and all that . claudia : okay , that sounds fair . sonny : and just so we 're clear , everything that happened last spring with michael disappearing -- you know , i blamed your family and johnny and i punished johnny . i feel bad about that . it was my mistake . claudia : yes , it was . john and i would never be involved in anything that had anything to do with hurting a child . sonny : i do n't hold your -- you know , your family responsible . i do n't hold a grudge against johnny or against you . [ scene_break ] jax : so , what are we drinking to ? kate : ah , mistakes . and the promise to do better next time . jax : you know , sonny 's doing you a favor . [ kate chuckles ] jax : he deserves claudia . you 're better off without him . you know that . kate : right . well , i guess i could say the same for you , right ? you 're finally free . jax : i guess you can say that . to freedom , then . kate : to freedom . [ scene_break ] olivia : cards on the table . all things being equal , if you had to pick between sonny and jax , which one would you pick ? not the one you think you should pick . the one who 's in your heart . carly : jax . for a long time , i would have said sonny . and even though i ca n't stay away from him , he 's not in my heart the way jax is . but i 'm really good at trashing what 's good in my life . that 's my specialty . olivia : you know what ? do n't give up . because sometimes these things have a way of working out when you least expect it to . carly : no , this wo n't . it 's not going to happen . cards on the table . olivia : right . right here . carly : how much did sonny matter to you back in the day ? olivia : a lot . more than i ever let anybody know . carly : how much does he matter to you now ? [ scene_break ] claudia : to a respectful and successful arrangement . sonny : i 'll drink to that . claudia : so , i assume we 're going to be living here in the fortress ? sonny : i told the maid you can have any room you want except mine . claudia : probably a good call . i 'm kind of a slob . sonny : that 's not what concerns me . claudia : so , you want out already , do n't you ? sonny : oh , no , no , no . just the opposite . i want to get married soon . claudia : how soon ? sonny : tonight . [ scene_break ] alexis : the commissioner believes that he has a strong case against you . he also believes he has all the evidence he needs to tie you to the destruction of the russian warehouse . diane : you can not hold my client based on what the commissioner thinks or believes . alexis : mac is doing his job and i finally am going to do mine . the violence in port charles is so out of hand , we are all becoming numb and immune to it . diane : you still ca n't hold my client without any evidence . alexis : he 's wearing the same clothes he wore when he blew up the warehouse . diane : oh , yes , by all means , let 's take that in front of a judge . your honor , we 're charging this man because his wardrobe choices indicate criminal intent . alexis : goes to a pattern of behavior . diane : so , basically , what you 're saying is , you have no evidence , so you 're going to rely on speculation . alexis : you know what ? you 're right , diane . i should just continue to make allowances for him , really , because he is , after all , the `` good mobster `` after all the bad guys in port charles . he is the good bad guy , so we 'll just let him off the hook , right ? wrong . we are done . as of now , my job is to prosecute criminals , not protect them . and i 'm going to hold him here until i get enough evidence against him . diane : which means that you will be the one breaking the law . alexis : i will find the evidence against him , do n't worry . in fact , i will make it my personal job to see you are tried and convicted , jason . enough is enough . you have caused so much pain and suffering in this city . it 's time for you to pay . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : how can you be so calm ? i 'm about to come out of my skin . sam : you 're calm in the operating room , right ? or when someone comes crashing into the e.r . ? elizabeth : that 's completely different . sam : no , you know what you 're doing there ; i know what i 'm doing here . elizabeth : but are n't you scared ? sam : a little bit , yeah . i mean , definitely . but , you know , i kind of feel lit up inside . i can hear better , i can see better , my reflexes are sharper . if somebody is ready to fight me , i 'm definitely ready to fight back . elizabeth : i wish i could be that confident . sam : it 's survival , not confidence . if you 've got to kill to protect your children , you will . you 'll do whatever you have to do . elizabeth : how long do you think this is going to take ? sam : i have no idea . elizabeth : the longer we wait , the better the chance jason or lucky will come get us , right ? because they 're going to call and get a busy signal and they 're going to know something 's wrong , right ? sam : yeah , it 's possible . hang on , stay still . sam : okay , i do n't see anything . elizabeth : maybe they 're gone . maybe they gave up or they got called away or they decided we 're not a threat anymore .

[ gags ] ugh . so -- what attracts you to all this scary murder stuff ? franco : i told you . it 's the dialectic . art is the conflict between two opposing forces . point and counterpoint . life , death . maxie : yeah , you say that , but how do you feel ? [ cork pops ] maxie : oh ! [ chuckles ] it was a girl , was n't it ? franco : is n't it always ? maxie : well , tell me about her . franco : [ sighs ] i do n't feel comfortable talking about it . maxie : oh , okay . well , posing as a corpse is n't exactly in my comfort zone , either , so i understand . franco : fair enough . i was in love with her . maxie : of course you were . does she have a name ? franco : vanessa . maxie : vanessa . franco : yeah , she lived across from me in a third floor walk - up on canal street . one day i came home and the cops were swarming all about the place . i ran up the stairs , and there was crime scene tape across her door . i looked inside , and -- there was a chalk outline on the floor . maxie : and an artist was born . franco : do you mind ? this is personal . maxie : sorry . franco : she 'd been murdered by a man she 'd never even met . he stabbed her with a number four steak knife . then threw himself off an overpass into oncoming traffic . parts of him were scattered for 500 yards . i have n't been able to eat meat to this day . maxie : that is -- ridiculous . franco : the part about not eating meat ? maxie : no , the number four steak knife . the love of your life is murdered and you 're suddenly obsessed with the cutlery ? mm - mmm . you made that whole thing up , did n't you ? franco : i make everything up . [ scene_break ] sam : this guy is approximately the same height , and pretty much , as far as i can see , with all the layers of clothes on , sort of the same build . i just -- [ sighs ] i wish we could see his face . jason : okay , let 's just go through this again . okay , first the homeless guy , our witness , he waves to me as we 're driving away from the scene , right ? then the same guy , the homeless guy , goes to the trouble of waving at a security camera at a bank a few blocks away . spinelli : okay , maybe he 's friendly -- jason : just hours after that , franco , a guy i 've never met , makes it a point of waving to me at an art show . i mean , that 's a lot of trouble to go through to get my attention . spinelli : okay , fine . but if it really is the same guy , why would a famous artist dress up as a homeless man ? [ jason sighs ] [ scene_break ] lucky : bring him in . anthony : detective spencer , what a lovely surprise . lucky : have a seat . anthony : let me guess -- you found my daughter alive . of course , you did n't , because she is n't . so tell me you at least found claudia 's body , because i 'd like to give my girl a decent burial . lucky : if you feel like arranging a funeral , how about one for joseph limbowski , aka joey limbo . i understand he was a close associate of yours . anthony : well , may he rest in peace . i had no idea he was ill . lucky : well , nothing a bullet and a broken larynx would n't fix . he died with three of his men . anthony : oh , they 're dropping like flies . but as you can see , i 'm trapped in this place like a caged animal . i survive through meditation and visualization . so who do you make for the shooter ? lucky : i do n't know . maybe you decided to make an example out of joey and his men . anthony : [ laughs ] if my arms could reach through these bars and make an example of anyone , it would be sonny corinthos . i 'd happily get rid of the man who killed my daughter . and joey limbo and who knows how many others . the world would be a better place . lucky : well , then it 's a good thing you 're locked up in here , is n't it ? anthony : you know what i worry about ? lucky : what 's that ? anthony : sentiment . it weakens the spine . look how my son compromised himself to protect his sister . and i have a feeling that you might fall into a similar trap . so you have to ask yourself how far will you bend over to protect friends and family ? because you mark my words -- joey limbo died on sonny corinthos ' orders . and your father 's hands are n't exactly clean , either . [ scene_break ] sonny : do you just show up here and let yourself in whenever you feel like it ? olivia : it 's okay , sonny . johnny : is it ? were you expecting me to be here when you decided to bring him home ? sonny : okay , watch your mouth . show the lady some respect . johnny : oh , so what , you need sonny to protect you from me now ? olivia : i do n't need protecting from you , john . in fact , i was -- sonny : what is going on here ? why are you so scared ? do n't intimidate her . [ johnny chuckles ] olivia : i 'm not afraid of john . and i 'm not going to get caught between the two of you again . so , sonny , thank you very much for bringing me home . good night . sonny : we still got things to discuss . olivia : no . i did what you asked . i went to the art opening with you . now , please , let 's let this evening be over , okay ? sonny : okay . if olivia 's unhappy , i 'll know who to blame . olivia : if you 're trying to punish me , it 's working . johnny : i wonder if sonny would be this concerned about your happiness if he knew that your son was trying to put him in prison . [ scene_break ] dominic : you know what , i 've been trying to appreciate this stuff all night . it 's not art , it 's garbage . lulu : well , i hate to state the obvious , but this is not called a garbage gallery . dominic : no . lulu : art speaks to something inside of you . it 's visceral and subconscious . dominic : all right , well , my idea of art is something you can hang at the met , made by a master . this guy ? this is not a master . i mean , look at that . that is like a car wreck . you ca n't even take your eyes off of it . this is one seriously messed up s.o.b . lulu : okay , you did n't answer my question . have you seen the crime scene before ? dominic : i do n't know . i mean , i must have . but i ca n't place that . i hate to admit it , but one crime scene 's pretty much like the next . [ scene_break ] maxie : you 've been laughing at me since we met , have n't you ? you laugh at everyone . franco : well , an artist needs a certain detachment to do his work . maxie : uh - uh , that is a crock . it 's just how you are . it has nothing to do with your work . what twisted you ? franco : there was this girl once -- maxie : right , vanessa , whose death made you bitter and cold . poor baby . franco : [ chuckles ] you do n't cut a genius much slack . you know , i have a bunch of simpering toadies slobbering after me , telling me how great i am , willing to do anything i say . you , you 're under whelmed . maxie : you ca n't be as shallow as you appear . you would have made a killer rock star . why do what you do , why make art ? franco : people always think there 's some deep , dark secret pushing my tortured soul to create . but i just like it . i love tagging . i love that i get paid a fortune for doing what i do for free . i 'm the same as i was when i tagged my first subway . i was 12 years old . it 's just the way people see me that 's changed . maxie : i almost believe you . which is a sure sign that you 're working me . franco : believe what you want . but here 's a clue -- the secret to life ? anyone can die at any time . maxie : so what do we do about it ? franco : amuse ourselves . do n't live by rules or boundaries . and take what you want , when you want it . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal does detect a certain attitude of defiance from the enigmatic artist . perhaps stone cold inadvertently caused some offense ? jason : i never spoke to this guy . sam : wait , maxie did say that franco wanted to meet jason , but he refused . spinelli : declining an introduction can be seen as a sign of disrespect to someone with franco 's reputation . sam : yeah , that 's true . spinelli does have a point . i mean , he could have been a little bit offended that you did n't walk over there and kiss his ring , and got pissed off and left . and that wave he gave you was his way of saying , `` up yours . `` spinelli : yeah . i mean , it 's not very creative , but i mean , message received . jason : okay , then tell me why does the homeless guy use the exact same gesture ? hours earlier ? [ scene_break ] olivia : i do n't know what sonny would do if he found out the truth about my son . i do n't want to know . johnny : i thought you trusted sonny . olivia : i do , to a point , but if he found out about dominic , that he was my son , dante ? there 's no telling what he would do . johnny : hey , we all know what he 's capable of doing . we all saw what he did to claudia . this was a woman who was his wife , not just on paper . she once carried his child . olivia : sonny can be ruthless . i know that . he 's capable of ordering a hit on anybody , including my kid . that 's the part that really breaks my heart , because -- see , once upon a time , sonny had it in him to be so much better than what he is right now . [ scene_break ] lucky : your guard let me wait in here . do n't worry , he locked the desk first . sonny : can i pour you something ? lucky : well , i 'm a recovering addict . besides , i 'm on duty . sonny : i 'm sorry , i forgot about that . so what do you think you 're going to get from me , lucky , without my lawyer present ? lucky : i 'm following up on the incident on front street earlier this evening . four men were gunned down , including joey limbo . sonny : that 's one hell of an `` incident . `` are they dead ? lucky : yeah . there 's a wrinkle that might interest you , something that sets this apart from the usual mob hit . joey limbo was shot , but that 's not what killed him . he died from a boot on his neck . sonny : looks like they wanted to make sure the job was done . lucky : yeah , but there 's more . the body was posed . on its side , his hand pointing out . i 'd like to hear what you know about that . [ scene_break ] maxie : are you trying to get me drunk ? spinelli : if you want . it would make all of this easier , would n't it ? it would be the perfect excuse . maxie : excuse to do what ? franco : do n't be coy . it 's that boyfriend you mentioned , is n't it ? you gon na marry him ? maxie : we tried that once . did n't go through with it . franco : and i wonder why that was . you did n't want to lash yourself to the mast for all time ? maybe you thought that life had more to offer ? well , it does . [ both sigh ] franco : if it makes you feel any better , i do n't want to have your babies . any commitment longer than an evening make me break out . your ex never has to know about tonight . maxie : but i would know . franco : i 'm going to pretend that that self - pitying drivel did n't just emerge from your lovely mouth . maxie : wow , you really know how to charm the pants off of a girl . franco : your pants are already halfway down your thighs . maxie : you will never know . franco : why not ? maxie : because . i 've made promises to the best man in the world . he loves me and trusts me and believes in me . franco : wow . i 'm happy for you , truly . but what does that have to do with us ? maxie : well , you 're asking me to cheat on him . franco : i 'm not asking you to do anything . and i 'll never force myself on anyone , if that 's what you 're thinking . how old are you ? maxie : 23 . franco : [ laughs ] 23 . and you already know what you want out of life . are your parents still married ? maxie : what does that have to do with anything ? franco : i did n't think so . how many people do you know that have married young and ended happily ever after ? maxie : that happens . franco : [ chuckles ] so , this guy , he 's the love of your life , your soul mate ? he 's the man for you till death or boredom do you part ? maxie : i think that you 're laughing at me again . franco : no , i 'm not . i 'm just trying to understand why you 're so sure , so committed , that you 're willing to forego everything that life has in store . maxie : i 'm not -- i 'm not sure . i just , well , i do n't want to lose what i have . franco : how much of a gambler are you ? maxie : see , now you 're trying to make me sound like a prude , and i am not . i am no saint , okay , just ask anyone . franco : no , you 're just confused . you 're trying to reconcile who you are with you who you think you are . make you woke up too many sundays hating the person in the mirror , huh ? maxie : wow . that 's deep . is this when i 'm supposed to drop to my knees in gratitude or whatever ? franco : good girls do n't . they just cross their legs and keep their gaze focused on the prize . wow . i hope all that self denial is worth it . maxie : this has to be the worst come - on i 've ever heard . franco : then why prolong the agony ? come on , i 'll take you back to the gallery . maybe your boyfriend will show up . maxie : what , right now ? franco : it 's what you want , is n't it ? maxie : the hell it is . [ scene_break ] sam : you 're right . they 're similar , and that 's weird . spinelli : okay , yet we 're no closer to an answer and mccall and jackal are neglecting what could be their most significant assignment to date . maximista will no doubt conclude that she 's been abandoned on her most important evening . jason : just go back to the gallery . i 'll work with what we have . sam : yeah , call me if you need anything , okay ? spinelli : greatest thanks . sam : yep . jason : i just do n't understand why a major artist would pretend to be homeless . sam : maybe because it 's his way of keeping in touch with his roots , and he 's not recognized ? jason : well , if it 's anonymity he wants , why would he put himself on camera ? this guy wants somebody to know . maybe me . or the cops , that he was at that shoot - out . sam : yeah , and the bad news is , he can tie you to the crime scene . jason : and i 'm not sure what i 'm supposed to do about it . [ scene_break ] johnny : how long do you think you can keep up these lies about dante ? olivia : if you 've got a better idea , why do n't you bring it on ? johnny : hey -- olivia : look , i ca n't tell sonny about my kid because he 'll have him killed . i ca n't get my kid off the case because god knows i 've tried . i just keep -- i just keep praying that dante maybe does n't find enough evidence and headquarters closes down the case . johnny : well , unfortunately wishful thinking is n't really a solution , olivia . anyway , dante 's getting in tighter with sonny , and he 's close to getting all the evidence he needs to put him away . the only thing i can hope for is that he 's got enough evidence to tie sonny to my sister 's murder , and sonny and my father can fall out together in their orange jumpsuits . olivia : except sonny will do anything in his power to keep himself out of prison , including kill my kid , which pretty much brings me around full circle . believe me , i have run all these things over in my head a million times , and all i get is paralyzed . the only thing -- the only thing that he left for me to do is go back to bensonhurst so i do n't have to watch this whole train wreck happen . but i 'm a mother . i ca n't leave my baby here by himself to face god knows what . johnny : well , dante 's lies are bad enough , and your lies are making things even worse . look -- in the end , olivia , someone 's going to end up taking the fall . whether dante is going to get caught by sonny or sonny 's going to end up in prison , either way , nobody wins . [ scene_break ] sonny : well , i do n't know anything about a body posed . lucky : yeah . it did n't seem like something your guys would do . cement shoes or gun and run is more your style , right ? i pulled limbowski 's jacket to see if there was someone he had dealt with who might want him dead . i did n't see your name anywhere . sonny : i could have told you that , lucky . lucky : could you have told me i 'd find my father 's name ? granted , it was a long time ago , but dad and joey worked together back in the frank smith days . luke spencer , right there in black and white . sonny : i will say that luke had nothing to do with joey limbo 's death . lucky : how come you 're so certain ? did my dad have any recent dealings with joey limbo ? sonny : well , you know what , lucky , that 's a conversation you 're going to have to have with your dad . and i got ta be honest with you , i ca n't imagine anything worse than your own son investigating you . sonny : a lot of us were surprised when you joined the force . lucky : you think i did it to get back at my dad ? sonny : [ sighs ] granted , luke is one of the best men i know . he does have flaws . but he 's a great person , and i think you used to think that , right ? lucky : yeah , well , proximity can change a person 's perspective , sonny . so can growing up . my dad is -- he 's the most amazing son of a bitch i 've ever known . and i loved my childhood . he was crazy . and even when he tried to be like other fathers , he was just different . like that time we went on the camping trip . you remember that ? sonny : [ laughs ] you wanted to pierce your ears like luke 's . lucky : yeah . yeah , you guys were my heroes . i know he would have preferred it if i 'd have followed in his footsteps , but -- sonny : well , you got ta admit , lucky , it was a slap in your dad 's face -- lucky : i did n't do it to hurt people -- sonny : why did you ? lucky : i do n't know . aunt ruby used to say the chickens always come home to roost . you ca n't tell me that you and my dad do n't live with the sins of your own fathers every single day . and i just -- i just decided it had to stop with me . you know ? that i -- build something better for my own children . and i decided that before cam and jake came into my life , and i do n't have any regrets so far . sonny : but you could have gone straight without wearing a badge . there are a million jobs . lucky : no , i know , man . i just , i needed to still be in the ring , you know what i 'm saying ? but i could n't fight for the other side . now justice should n't only be for people like you and my dad who have the muscle to take whatever you want , whenever you want it . so maybe in some way , my badge levels the playing field for people who do n't have any power . sonny : well , i 'm sure that makes your father very proud . even though it breaks his heart . lucky : yeah . see you around . [ door opens ] [ scene_break ] sam : do you want to tell me what happened at the shoot - out ? because so far i only know lucky 's speculation . and i would like to know what really happened . jason : sonny wanted to make peace . so , uh -- luke spencer went to this guy joey limbo on sonny 's behalf and offered to broker a truce . well , joey agreed , so we set up the meeting . we get there , and there was an ambush . sam : just you and sonny ? jason : no , max and milo drove us . the shooting started , and dominic tackled sonny and got him to cover , but they were pinned down . sam : which left you to deal with it . jason : yeah . i had a decent sight -- sam : did you at least take cover ? jason : no , the only way to get a clean shot was to stand out in the open . sam : oh , jason , so anyone could have seen that you were the shooter . like this guy . when did you realize he was there ? jason : when we were driving away . i looked out my back window . and he was waving to me just like that . [ scene_break ] maxie : is this how you get off ? jerking women around until they get so pissed off , they do you just to get you to shut up ? you treat them like dirt until they beg for more ? franco : you 're not the type to beg . maxie : no . i 'm not . and i do n't need you or anyone else telling me how to live . i will be with any man that i like . maybe i do n't want to leave . maybe i do n't want to go back to the gallery or home , or wherever you think good girls go when they get scared . maybe i 'm as adventurous as you are ; as open to experimenting . be unafraid . maybe -- [ scene_break ] olivia : my only priority in this , john , is that my son gets out of it alive . okay . that 's why i lied to you . any time that anyone finds out that he 's undercover , it puts his life at risk . johnny : so you decided to keep me distracted . so you could keep dante safe . olivia : i tried to break up with you to avoid all this . okay , i probably should n't have let you talk me out of it . johnny : how many more secrets are there , olivia ? olivia : what do you mean ? johnny : well , i think you 've made it abundantly clear that you would go to the wall and lie to protect your son . so ? when you said you love me , was that a lie , too ? hmm ? this broken heart of yours that you claim to have , is that for real ? or is that just another distraction from me to protect your son ? [ scene_break ] dominic : just wondering if you heard anything about the fallout from the ambush ? sonny : no , not from here . but you know what , i ca n't say the same about your friend lulu . dominic : lulu ? sonny : her brother is investigating the case , and when lucky finds out that luke set up the meeting , it 's going to get ugly . lulu 's right in the middle . and there 's nothing worse than a father and son on opposing sides . dominic : wow , this is really bothering you . sonny : lucky -- this terrific kid chose to be a cop and i hate that when i talk to him , i have to keep my guards up . dominic : what , you think he 's got something on you ? sonny : not yet . he 's probably going to figure out that luke has a connection first , right ? can you imagine , your own kid investigating you ? i mean , it got me thinking . about my own life , and what i 've done with my life can buy morgan , kristina and michael anything they want . they can go to a great college . they can start a business , anything better than what i had , better than the life that i 'm in right now . but i pray that none of my kids ever become a cop . [ scene_break ] jason : i killed -- maybe three or four men tonight . sam : all right , but if you had n't defended yourself today , you would be the one lying dead in the street , probably along with a lot of other people like max and sonny and milo , even dominic . you saved a lot of lives today , jason . jason : i stepped out of the car , started shooting . and i did what i always do . no thought , no pause . just shoot to kill . sam : or be killed . you were under attack . jason : when i 've had to take a life , it 's always been a rival , it 's been an enemy , it 's been a direct threat to me or sonny or our families . and i know it sounds like i 'm trying to justify it , but it 's the truth . sam : i know . jason : okay , so what if somebody shows up in the wrong place at the wrong time and sees the wrong thing ? do i have the right to kill him ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : maximista , your negotiations must be in progress , because your phone is off . well , i eagerly await your return to the gallery to hear the exciting news of your success . lucky : spinelli ? i need to speak to you about the exhibit . spinelli : well , in the jackal 's opinion , the artist 's vision is for the observer to look inward to his darkest self , instead of turning a blind eye to the brutalities of society . lucky : i was more interested in the guest registry , actually . why did every gangster in town show up to see this guy 's work ? [ scene_break ] maxie : that is what you get for being mean to me . [ franco chuckles ] maxie : you knew we were going to hook up the whole time , did n't you ? franco : did n't know . hoped . maxie : since when ? the moment we met , or when i agreed to go to your studio with you , or when you offered to take me home and i refused , three times ? franco : i do n't know , i did n't much think about it . maxie : i 'm flattered . franco : i did n't much think about it in advance . but now i 'll have a hard time getting you out of my mind . mandy . maxie : you 're priceless . i should take you to my apartment and put you on my mantle . you can be your own little work of art . franco : oh , yeah , you think people would pay money for me ? lulu : oh , yeah , mr. franco . i know quite a few women who would be happy to keep you occupied . franco : yeah , for a while . and then what ? ahh . [ sighs ] maxie : hmm . well , first of all , thank you for a wonderful -- [ `` mad world `` playing ] maxie : hmm . you 're a very talented man , you know that ? franco : are you going to be okay getting up to your apartment ? maxie : yeah , sure . actually , maybe not . my knees are n't working as well as they were earlier . franco : thanks . maxie : wait ! wait , i did n't get you to agree to do the shoot ! [ scene_break ] spinelli : how 's the p.i . business going these days , spinelli ? spinelli : it 's a most worthy trade . and mccall and jackal have supervised security at the gallery opening tonight , and as you can see , all went smoothly . lucky : you probably heard by now that jason 's a suspect in the multiple homicide on front street . spinelli : well , i mean , stone cold was in attendance at tonight 's festivities with fair samantha , so -- lucky : if that 's supposed to be an alibi , it 's too little , too late . spinelli : it 's not like the determined detective to rush to judgment in such a manner . lucky : well , let 's just call it a feeling , then . the four victims were thugs , but they were humans , and now they 're dead . and one of the bodies was posed like it was someone 's idea of a joke . that 's weird . the body i was talking about was posed just like the one in that picture . [ scene_break ] jason : the photo i got in the mail proves that there was a witness to claudia 's death . and now there 's another eyewitness to the shoot - out . they can take what they have to the cops . sam : yeah , but they have n't yet . jason : my job is to eliminate threats . what they 've seen makes them a threat . so should i kill them ? sam : jason , you are having a crisis of faith right now , which means i have to have enough faith in you for the both of us . jason : that 's nice of you , sam , but you 're not objective . sam : jason , i know you . i know your heart . i know you are not some immoral killer who is drunk on power . i know you are not some animal who is out killing because it makes them feel like they 're something special . you 're doing what you have to do to protect you and yours when you are threatened . you have great instincts , and you have to trust them . jason : thank you . sam : thank you for telling me . jason : you 're the only one i can talk to about this . [ scene_break ] olivia : i do n't expect that this is going to change anything . and i do n't know if you can ever forgive me or trust me again . but i want you to know -- that i never lied about loving you , john . and i never will . johnny : do you regret lying about your son ? olivia : i would have never told you he was a cop . but now that you know , at least you can protect yourself . johnny : how much evidence does he have against me ? olivia : sonny is the target . but you can still stay under his radar . just do n't tell dante . do n't let him know anything that can be incriminating . johnny : and what about the alternative , olivia ? you still have n't given me a compelling enough reason not to tell sonny that his new golden boy is the guy who 's going to put him away . olivia : then how about this -- how about you could n't live with my kid 's blood on your hands ? how about that ? please -- i 'm begging you . please , do n't tell sonny or anybody else that dante 's a cop . johnny : swear to god . sure , i swear . sonny will never hear the truth from me . and i 'm going to sit and i 'm going to wait and i 'll watch and cheer from the sidelines when dante finally puts sonny corinthos in prison where he belongs . [ scene_break ] dominic : i do n't think you have anything to worry about . i mean , lucky has nothing that could tie you to claudia 's murder , right ? sonny : look , if you look hard enough , you can find something . max and milo drove me to the cabin . you do n't think they ca n't find somebody who might have seen the car ? i came home and i had blood on my shirt . somebody could have seen that . dominic : that 's all circumstantial . sonny : well , you know what , i know she did n't vanish into thin air . i know she 's buried . but it does n't mean she ca n't be found . lucky , some other cop , putting the pieces together , they could have enough to build a case . and maybe even enough to convict me of claudia 's murder .

[ sighs ] hey , what 's wrong ? tj : [ sniffles ] molly : come here . it 's okay . it 's okay . tj : [ crying ] shawn : look , uh , keep your ears to the ground , okay ? let me know if you hear anything . sure thing , mr. b. i 'm your guy . jordan : shawn . i 've been looking all over for you . shawn : i 'm trying to track down ava 's baby -- you know , do what i can for sonny . but with everything that 's going on , the cops have their hands full . dr. obrecht : it 's empty . there is no one down there . anna : what are you talking about ? he has to be there . he 's got to be down there . nikolas : let me take a look . here . britt : do you see anything ? nikolas , is he there ? anna : what ? nikolas : [ grunts ] she 's right . it 's empty . agent sloane : care to explain ? anna : oh , that 's impossible . nikolas : if faison was here , he 's gone now . tracy : why have n't we heard from those two ? lulu : it 's been five seconds since patrick and sam texted us . tracy : [ sighs ] it 's five seconds too long . lulu : well , maybe they need a little time to deal with whatever they 've -- [ cell phone beeps ] lulu : wait . they 're on their way back . tracy : oh , it 's about time . i just hope to god they found out what 's going on with luke . alexis : that does n't even make sense . what do you mean , luke is not luke ? julian : because someone else took luke 's place . alexis : what does that even mean ? julian : in simple terms [ chuckles ] it means that someone else has been living luke 's life . alexis : so you 're saying that there are two luke spencers ? fluke : i would n't do that if i were you , spencer ... and i am you . luke : you 're not me . fluke : you sure ? i see you 've been up to no good . stripping out of a straitjacket , picking a lock designed to keep dangerous psychos inside . very impressive . you 're a regular low - rent houdini , you know . it 's a pity , though , is n't it ? mere steps away from freedom . so close ... but no cigar . jordan : now that i know what jordan : now that i know what ava did -- that she murdered connie falconeri ... shawn : she was a good woman , and sonny loved her . jordan : which explains why sonny sent you to kidnap ava . shawn : i know you still do n't agree with his methods . jordan : whatever . whatever ava 's done , she 's still a mother who lost her child , and i ca n't help feeling that the same thing 's happening to me . tj : [ exhales deeply ] last night , shawn and my mom came clean with me about a whole bunch of stuff . [ sighs ] molly : like what ? tj : well , they told me , uh -- they confessed that they were sleeping together behind my dad 's back . molly : oh , my god . when was this ? tj : before i was born . molly : tj , are you saying that shawn is really your dad ? julian : okay , okay , this counterfeit luke spencer -- he 's the one i work for . he 's my boss . alexis : okay , let 's say that i 'm buying this story . who is he ? what 's his name ? julian : i do n't know . alexis : oh , come on . julian : i 'm being honest with you . alexis : well , i think you 're being ridiculous . julian : well , it also happens to be the truth . alexis : yeah , i do n't believe you . julian : okay , wait , wait , wait . you 'll believe me . as soon as i tell you the whole story , you 're gon na believe everything . tracy : oh , finally . did you find out what was in the safe - deposit box ? sam : not now . we ca n't risk larry coming back and seeing us here , too . tracy : what do you mean , `` seeing us here , too `` ? did he see you at the bank ? patrick : he saw us at the bank , but he did n't see us with the safe - deposit box . lulu : okay , i 'm gon na go put alice on lookout . she 'll let us know if she sees him ... tracy : what happened ? sam : okay , so , we were able to get into the safe - deposit box , and then there was a lockbox , but i was n't able to open that because larry came in . tracy : i thought you were supposed to be good at this . sam : please do n't insult me right now . when larry left , uh , he was -- he was holding some sort of a satchel , and there was something in it . tracy : yeah , the contents of the lockbox . brilliant . patrick : after larry left , sam used her superpowers and was able to open up the lockbox . tracy : oh , well , those are n't superpowers . those are basic thieving skills . so , did you find anything in it ? sam : yes , we did find something . tracy : [ scoffs ] are you gon na make us guess ? lulu : what is it , sam ? sam : it was a flash drive and a picture of faison . anna : can i have that ? can i get -- faison ! dr. obrecht : stop pretending to be shocked and admit you 've been lying to us all along ! anna : he was here ! faison was in here . robert and i put him here . we made sure that he could n't get out . but he did . he escaped . fluke : no cigar for you today , houdini . bet you could use one about now , could n't you ? luke : oh , yeah . i 'd light it and stuff it down your miserable throat , you son of a bitch . fluke : [ chuckling ] ooh , that is charming . i see your appeal . not everyone does , you know . now get back in your cage , little man , before i shoot you now , and you never see tracy or your miserable offspring again . luke : get out . take that cheap imitation of my face with you . fluke : `` cheap imitation `` ? hardly . [ sighs ] guess how long i 've been gone . luke : not long enough . fluke : six months . six long months . unfortunately , it became necessary for luke spencer to disappear , but i 'm back now , ready to resume my old life . or should i say your old life ? jordan : i hated doing that to tj shawn : look , we agreed , okay ? we had to own up to what we did . jordan : i know . i know . i know , but ... the look on his face when he heard that thomas tried to kill you -- i mean , i could -- i could just feel his heart break , you know ? shawn : look , tj is a strong kid , okay ? he 'll -- he 'll get through this . jordan : have you heard from him or seen him or ... ? shawn : no . i mean , he has n't answered any of my calls . jordan : [ sighs ] i just want -- i just want to know how he 's doing . shawn : i know where he is . molly : is that what they told you -- that shawn is really your father ? tj : i thought they were going to , but my mom -- she had a paternity test done , and my dad 's still my dad . molly : okay , so ... tj : yeah . molly : ... if that 's the case , then why tell you about it ? tj : [ inhales deeply ] [ exhales deeply ] there 's more . they told me what happened when my dad found out . he came after shawn . my dad was gon na shoot him , molly . shawn was forced to defend himself , so he -- he shot my dad first . molly : oh , my god . tj : you know , it 's just the way that they talk about him -- like he was some jealous maniac . he just was n't the same stand - up guy i always thought he was . julian : so , after my supposed death , i spent over 10 years in the witness protection program . one day , this guy -- a complete stranger -- comes up to me , and he says he 's also in the witness protection program -- introduces himself as peter caspin , which turned out to be an alias . anyway , this caspin guy says that he used to live in port charles . we hit it off . i tell him a little about myself , what i used to do -- alexis : what did he tell you about himself ? julian : well , not a lot , actually . he just really wanted to talk about business and how he had access to money . alexis : ah . the beginning of a beautiful friendship . julian : well , to be honest with you , i thought so at the time . i mean , we made some pretty big plans , and that 's when we created wells media as a cover , but the main reason for this whole thing that we wanted to do was that we wanted to rebuild the jerome family back to something that my father could n't even imagine . we wanted to make sure that the jeromes were back on top . alexis : and in order to do that ... julian : we needed to take port charles away from sonny . so , one day , we 're on our way back to port charles , and this guy -- this caspin guy says something incredible to me . he says that there 's a guy in port charles that looks exactly like he does . fluke : what 's the matter ? did n't you get my little joke about your life ? luke : oh , that was a joke ? fluke : oh , i see you 've lost your sense of humor , too . oh , well . you wondering why i 'm dressed like this ? luke : yeah , i 'm wondering . where 'd you hide your tail ? fluke : i 'm incognito . this face is not exactly an asset at the moment . luke : my life not running smoothly for you ? fluke : a lot of people have been asking questions about luke spencer . it seems he 's been involved in some very nasty deals . the heat , as they say , is on . or it was ... until i came up with a brilliant idea ... one you helped to inspire . luke : inspire how ? fluke : i convinced people that luke spencer had been abducted and being held captive by jerry jacks . you remember him ? suffered polonium poisoning with you . needed your blood to keep him alive , and then you pushed him off the roof of the metro court . oh , what good times . luke : how did jerry jacks get involved in this ? fluke : he popped back up when tracy was searching for you . and i have say my plan went down like butter . luke : you do n't say . fluke : yeah , she was desperate -- tracy -- wanting her husband back . she was adorable . she handed over a whole stack of elq shares in order to get you back . but jerry and i -- we were very naughty . luke : what 'd you do ? fluke : we did n't give her back you ... or even me . we gave her a totally different husband . tracy : faison ? how does that marble - mouthed troll factor in to what 's happened to my husband ? lulu : you overheard larry on the phone with jerry jacks saying they needed to deal with their luke spencer problem . sam : yeah , we assumed that larry 's trip to the safe - deposit box had something to do with it . patrick : instead , we found the flash drive and the picture of faison . lulu : well , i mean , assuming they 're connected to whatever larry did remove from that lockbox , how is faison going to solve our problem with my father ? dr. obrecht : are you really sticking with this absurd story that you left my cesar in this filthy , foul , nauseating hole ? ! anna : i am telling you he was here . nikolas : it 's not like it 's the first time he 's escaped confinement . britt : it 's true . he made it out of steinmauer . anna : right , he made it out of steinmauer with your help . jordan : okay , look , if tj 's with molly , i still need to know if he 's okay , all right ? we should go see him . shawn : let me handle it , okay ? jordan : he 's my son , shawn . shawn : but i 've been taking care of him for the past few years . jordan : oh , wow , so you 're really gon na throw that in my face now ? shawn : all i am asking is for a little alone time with tj all right , and maybe i 'll be able to get back on track with him , pave the way for you , too . jordan : okay . okay . all right . go . shawn : thank you . okay , i 'll call you as soon as i can . jordan : okay . hey , hey , m - make sure that he 's -- make sure that he 's eating and tell him i love him . shawn : i 'll do that . jordan : and so did his father . thomas . shawn : you deserve to know , tj -- okay ? -- even if it hurts . tj : well , that 's great . so , now i 'm supposed to do what -- just live with it ? shawn : would you rather have kept on believing a lie ? tj : kind of , yeah . what does this do for me ? nothing . telling me was all for you , just so you could clear your consciences about screwing each other right before you capped my dad . bob : hello , jordan . tj : i just ca n't believe it , molly . my dad died because he lost it on his best friend . everything that i thought about him -- that he was a hero , that he died tragically in battle -- everything was a lie ! just thinking about him like that -- like some psycho who snapped -- you do n't understand . it changes everything . molly : i know . it rocks your world . i get it . i went through that , too , when julian said all those outrageous things about my father . alexis : so , this boss of yours tells you he looks just like luke ? julian : yeah . i mean , i asked him if they were twins , and he said that a lot of people in the witness protection program get their looks altered . alexis : so he had plastic surgery . julian : well , he did n't specifically say that , but let 's just say he let me assume . alexis : and he just happens to have a face that looks exactly like luke 's . julian : he said his face would allow him to take over elq . alexis : mm , well , that was a bust . julian : well , that 's just it . when he could n't get control of elq , my boss became a monster . i mean , the more he failed , the more brutal he became , which , unfortunately , is about the time that i started falling in love with you . look , i really just wanted to [ sighs ] get out , go legit . i wanted to be a normal person with a beautiful family . so , i met him face - to - face and told him that i wanted out -- that i was gon na quit the business with him to be with you . and [ chuckles ] he retaliated by having my son shot . i mean , the man shot lucas . alexis : wait a minute . you told me that it was ric who ordered the hit on lucas . tracy : please tell me you had the presence of mind to steal the flash drive . there might be something on it that will explain why ashton and jerry jacks are so interested in that scandinavian garden gnome . sam : guess what , tracy . larry would have noticed if the flash drive was missing . patrick : we were about to get that information when larry walked into the bank . tracy : again with the phones . is that all you people care about ? patrick : sam did one better . she downloaded the contents from the flash drive onto her phone . sam : here . take a look . tracy : next . next . lulu : wait . wait , wait , wait , wait . it 's saying that he escaped from steinmauer , and then he resurfaced in port charles and that his current whereabouts are ... wyndemere ? on spoon island ? anna : faison would never have made it out of steinmauer without your help . dr. obrecht : do n't turn this around on me . the blame for this debacle lies squarely on you ! anna : no , liesl . you strolled into a supermax facility using fake i.d . , masquerading as me . now , who 's to say that you did n't find out what robert and i had done with faison , and you came in here , and you let him loose ? dr. obrecht : and what do you think i did ? strolled in here wearing an anna mask and fished him out of the hole where you dumped him ? ! you 're demented ! anna : no , you 're demented ! agent sloane : as far as i 'm concerned , commissioner , there 's no evidence here to indicate that you and robert scorpio kept faison captive , but , for the sake of argument , let 's say you did . nikolas : well , he got out of here somehow . britt : god only knows where he is . anna : or who he 's tormenting . luke : jacks sent tracy that dinosaur larry ashton ? fluke : yep . the old t. rex is living at the quartermaine mansion even as we speak . luke : why would tracy let him back in her life ? fluke : maybe because he appeared to be a victim of jerry jacks . maybe because you 've -- well , i 've been gone for six months , and let 's face it -- our wife -- she has needs . ah ! careful . so , lord larry is at the quartermaine mansion living the high life . he 's drinking the top - shelf booze . he 's gorging himself on home - cooked gourmet food and fine wine . yes , lord larry loves living in your digs . luke : ashton is no more a lord than you 're luke spencer . he 's a waste of flesh . tracy said the only good thing he ever gave her was ned . the man is a first - class phony . fluke : [ chuckles ] you have no idea . luke : what does that mean ? what does ashton have to do with this ? fluke : you could say he 's in it up to his ascot . luke : are you larry ashton ? anna : right , i 'm putting out an apb . on faison . he needs to be apprehended and brought in . dr. obrecht : the only person who should be arrested here is you ! agent sloane ! agent sloane : all right , no one is arresting anyone ... yet . commissioner . anna : yeah ? agent sloane : when did you last know for certain that faison was here ? anna : what do you mean ? agent sloane : it 's a simple question , anna . when did you yourself last lay eyes on cesar faison ? anna : well , a year ago . dr. obrecht : a year ago ? ! agent sloane : hey ! hey ! hey ! hey ! sam : could n't faison be somewhere on spoon island ? patrick : he could be hiding in the catacombs . tracy : clearly , this file is out of date . yes , faison escaped prison , and , yes , he resurfaced at wyndemere , but anna devane captured him a year ago , and he was sent back to that penitentiary in switzerland . this is a waste of time . patrick : tracy , we ca n't be sure of that . sam : no , all the pieces matter here . tracy : well , can we get to the pieces that might tell us something about luke ? both : what the -- lulu : what ? [ gasps ] [ keyboard clacks ] fluke : how can i be larry ashton ? i 'm you . luke : you 're not me . you just copied my face somehow . you know , the last time you slimed in here , you said you were living my life . now you 're telling me larry ashton is doing the same thing ? fluke : hang on , sherlock . if i 'm larry ashton , how is it i have your face ? luke : plastic surgery . or maybe one of those high - tech masks like cesar faison wore . tracy : that 's the mask that faison wore when he was pretending to be duke . sam : when he killed jason . lulu : my dad said it was developed by the wsb . the technology is extremely complex . it 's why they were able to fool everybody for so long . patrick : i got to be honest . it 's remarkable . tracy : it 's another dead end . robert scorpio threw hot oil on that mask , and it melted . [ computer beeping ] sam : maybe so , but it looks like someone was interested in making another mask . tracy : of duke lavery ? sam : no . of someone else . lulu : who is it ? [ beeping continues ] lulu : whose face are they making a mask of ? molly : tj , your dad was fighting in afghanistan , okay ? that had to be horrible -- brutal in ways that we ca n't even imagine . tj : [ sighs ] molly : finding out that the two people he loved most betrayed him -- that would have pushed anyone over the edge . tj : but it does n't change what happened . molly : and what happened does n't change who he was as a man . tj : [ sighs ] molly : [ sighs ] the way he died does n't define who he was any more than my dad 's death defines who he was as a man . tj : you do n't think so ? molly : no , i do n't . look , your dad was a good person , like mine . he was a good father , like mine . neither of them should have died ... but they did , and we need to remember how they lived , not how they died . alexis : you told the police that ric arranged the hit on lucas . julian : i did . alexis : and then they raided his hotel room , and they found the gun that was used for the hit . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : so did your boss put ric up to this ? did he force him to shoot lucas ? julian : no . that 's not how it went down . jordan : bob . uh , you startled me . bob : so i see . let 's step out of the sun , shall we ? every drug runner in the northeast knows who i am , and if they see you having a casual conversation with the dea . division chief , you 're dead . jordan : so why not just call ? why are you here ? bob : no , jordan , why are you here ? hanging around with corinthos ' top gun instead of working to identify julian jerome 's boss ? alexis : so , if this luke double is your silent partner , then the story about the paper trail and this whole barrett enterprises is not true ? julian : no , no . he did get his money through barrett enterprises . alexis : he did , but not ric ? julian : [ sighs ] alexis : so , this whole story about ric being the man behind the scenes -- that 's not true ? julian : look , alexis ... alexis : are you telling me that ric had no involvement in this at all and that he was innocent ? julian : [ sighs ] that 's exactly what i 'm saying . tj : you 're right , as usual . i 've just got to remember the times i had with my dad , you know , 'cause they were good years . molly : i bet they were . tj : and then that one moment with shawn , that was n't my dad . he was n't himself , was he ? molly : no . i do n't think he was . tj : all right . but just -- how am i supposed to look shawn in his face again ? he betrayed the hell out of my dad . if i stick with shawn now , i just feel like i 'm betraying my dad , too . [ knock on door ] molly : hold on . shawn : can i come in ? molly : uh ... sure . shawn : thought i 'd find you here . tj : [ sighs ] looks like you were right . shawn : your mom and i were worried about you . tj : yeah . shawn : look , we knew this was gon na be hard , okay ? but we had to get the truth out there . you know , we 've been keeping it from you for so long because we were afraid we 'd lose you . tj : so you decided to wreck the memory of my father just so you guys could clear your guilty consciences ? shawn : tj , what your mom and i did was wrong . but you 're like a son to me , man . that means everything to me . come on , please , man , do n't throw it away . can we go somewhere and -- and , you know , try to work this out ? jordan : look , i know shawn is sonny corinthos ' right hand , but shawn 's also been taking care of my son . i need you to understand that and respect that . bob : your personal life is your own concern . i 'm more interested in this investigation . jordan : okay , well , i tried to worm my way into ava jerome 's life , and she trusted me . you know , she was this close to telling me the identity of her boss , but then -- i do n't know -- things went off the rails with her baby . bob : and now she 's in the wind . you 'll have to find another way to get us our mystery man . jordan : you know that undercover investigations take time -- i mean , years sometimes . i mean , what 's the rush ? bob : the rush is that we have an innocent man in witness protection , and he 's waiting for us to make it safe for him to come home . alexis : you turned him in ? you had him arrested when you knew he did n't do it , when you knew he was innocent ? julian : my boss needed a fall guy to cover his identity , and ric fit the bill . alexis : he was killed in custody ! because he should n't have been there because you had him framed ! my daughter 's father is dead because of you ! julian : i obviously did n't think that was gon na happen . alexis : what , it was okay that he rot in prison , then ? that was all right with you ? julian : i did n't have a choice , alexis . alexis : there is always a choice . julian : he told me that if i did n't do it , the shooting would n't stop with lucas -- that he would kill you , sam , danny , and molly and everyone else that i loved . alexis : no , sir . you do not get to use us as an excuse . julian : an excuse ? your lives were at stake . what in the hell was i supposed to do ? alexis : you call the police . that 's what you do . you tell the truth . that 's what you do . you follow the law ! that 's what you do ! you do n't frame an innocent person . julian : i hated framing ric . i hated doing that to you and especially to molly , but i had to , alexis . i had to for you , for our family . please tell me you understand that . alexis : [ sighs ] dr. obrecht : verlogene schlampe hure ! britt : mother , control yourself ! dr. obrecht : and you have n't seen him for a year ? ! agent sloane : all right , let me make sure that i understand . you and robert scorpio threw cesar faison in a hole a year ago , and you never came back to check on him ? anna : no , i did n't . no . dr. obrecht : verlogene -- anna : robert insisted that i stay out of it . he arranged for faison 's care . he -- he found someone that he trusted , and then that person got a job here at wyndemere . nikolas : what ? ! you 're telling me someone on my staff who works in my home is a wsb agent ? anna : yeah . he 's a stable hand . and it just meant that he could come in here without raising any suspicion . i mean , he 's been reporting to robert that faison was still in confinement . agent sloane : well , let 's talk to him . maybe he 'll have some answers , since the commissioner apparently has none . sam : i just -- i do n't get who this is supposed to be . tracy : you 're a neurosurgeon . that is a head . ca n't you tell us who it is ? patrick : brain 's easy compared to that . i could never imagine that a mask would be this complicated . sam : i mean , i understand why it would be in faison 's file , but i do n't know what jerry has to do with this . lulu : well , the most important question of all is , what does this have to do with my dad ? tracy : no , i think the most important question of all is whether someone is making a mask of luke . fluke : a high - tech mask ? when was the last time you saw any television -- `` mission : impossible `` ? luke : faison used wsb technology to develop a mask of duke lavery 's face . it fooled everyone . he posed as duke for months . fluke : so , if i 'm larry ashton in a mask ... you think tracy would really buy that ? luke : faison convinced anna that he was duke . you 've already told me that you convinced tracy you were me . is that what 's going on here ? are you that boob larry ashton disguised as me ? fluke : if i were larry ashton disguised as you , he would n't be such a boob , would he ? luke : who the hell are you ? ! fluke : i 'm the man who decides whether you live or die . now , you think about that . ca n't stay . got to go . was n't that lucky that i came around when i did ? i 'm gon na have to tell the zookeepers what a bad beast you 've been -- send them in here with a tighter - fitting straitjacket . see you next time i look in the mirror . jordan : fine . i 'll step it up . trust me -- i want to know who jerome 's boss is just as much as you do . bob : we appreciate that . [ door opens ] jordan : hey , bob . i want to end the flow of junk in port charles , okay ? and i want my son to know that i 'm actually one of the good guys . i 've been dreaming of that moment so i can finally tell him who i really am . shawn : come on , tj . can we please go somewhere and try to work this out ? tj : i promised molly i 'd hang with her , so ... molly : um , actually , i really need to study . look , shawn 's been good to you . do n't write him off , okay ? tj : [ sighs ] molly : hey , it 's gon na be okay . i love you . tj : [ inhales deeply ] [ exhales deeply ] [ sighs ] let 's go . shawn : thanks , molly . molly : [ sighs ] alexis : molly needs to know that her father is innocent . she knew that all along , but i believed you , not her . julian : look , alexis , just wait a second , please . just tell me you understand . this other luke -- he just did n't give me a choice . literally did not give me a choice . alexis : you have n't told me everything . julian : well , i have told you everything . there is n't anything else to tell . alexis : you sure ? not anything ? julian : well , what else could there be ? i ... alexis : where is he ? julian : all right . you get me the hell out of here , i 'll take you to him . luke : let me out of here ! [ sighs ] i 've got to get out of here . [ sighs ] i 've got to get out of here . serge : take it easy , mr. cassadine . you 're really not supposed to handle me like that . it messes with my chi . dr. obrecht : you ! where is my cesar ? serge : hey , german , right ? does `` ich bin ein berliner `` really mean , `` i am a jelly ... `` ? nikolas : just tell her where faison is . serge : is that the new stud we 're expecting ? dr. obrecht : no , you idiot . anna : okay , look . look , your cover 's blown , all right ? they know scorpio hired you to take care of faison . so , you 've been reporting back to robert that faison was still here , when , clearly , he no longer is . serge : you 're right . britt : but he was here in that dungeon ? serge : yeah , but now he 's gone . anna : you 've been filing false reports ? serge : yes . anna : why ? for how long have you been doing that ? serge : pretty much since agent scorpio hired me last year . luke : i will get out of here . i will get out of here . i 'll get to you , tracy . i 'll get to you , lulu . i will meet my grandson . i will meet my grandson ! i am not done yet ! [ cell phone beeps ] lulu : what would jerry and larry do with a mask of my father ? tracy : i just got a text from alice . larry 's on his way . patrick : we got to go . tracy : out , out , out . sam : okay , okay . patrick : get rid of that . lulu : be careful . luke : i will get out of here . i will find the bastard who is living my life , and i will kill him . larry : hello . what are you two birds up to ? luke : whoever you are out there living my life , you will die , you slimy son of a bitch . [ sighs ] who the hell are you ? [ next_on ] michael : ( to carly ) get the hell out of here before i call the cops ! sonny : you 're a free man . agent sloane : ( to anna ) we need to discuss what you did to faison . sam : ( to patrick ) that 's the worst idea i 've ever heard . elizabeth : ( to jason ) actually , there is something you can do . alexis : ( to julian ) tell me where luke is . helena ( to luke ) you look like you 've seen a ghost .

olivia : why are we even talking about sonny ? either we 've had way too much to drink or not enough . carly : that 's not fair . you asked me who i would choose , sonny or jax , and i told you -- olivia : what kind of name is jax ? carly : oh , my god . really ? answer the question . you and sonny had a past . how do you feel about him now ? olivia : what difference does it make ? carly : well , there 's my answer . [ scene_break ] claudia : you want to get married tonight ? sonny : yeah . it 's a business deal , not a romance . claudia : you could make it sound a little less like a root canal . make a girl feel a little better about herself . sonny : so why are you stalling ? you do n't want to do it ? claudia : you did n't . in fact , you swore that it would never happen . and now , apparently , it ca n't happen soon enough ? sonny : well , yeah , i did everything to avoid it . but circumstances dictate , so if we 're going to get married , we might as well do it . unless you want to back out . [ scene_break ] alexis : i fully intend to tie you to the explosions at the warehouse on water street for the slayings of the two russian nationals . diane : i realize that you are angry and that you are frustrated , and -- alexis : i am doing my job as d.a . , and it 's about time that i started doing it . it 's my responsibility . diane : which , apparently , is very selective because i do n't recall you being nearly this vehement about building a case against jerry jacks . in fact , i do n't recall you making any effort whatsoever to fulfill your professional responsibility where he was concerned . alexis : that is an entirely different subject . diane : it is not , alexis . jerry jacks pulled one over on you and now you are trying to redeem yourself in the public 's and possibly your own eyes at the expense of my client . that is not justice , that is hypocrisy . [ scene_break ] sam : okay , i do n't see anything . elizabeth : maybe they 're gone . maybe they gave up or they got called away or they decided we 're not a threat anymore . [ gunshot and breaking glass ] elizabeth : oh , my god . my boys . sam : do n't move . elizabeth : i 've got to go . sam : elizabeth . [ gunshot ] [ scene_break ] claudia : i 'm not backing out . but when you do n't believe in love and you do n't need the money , you do n't think about marriage . and here i am engaged . you dragged your feet about this for weeks , and now you just want to snap your fingers and be husband and wife just like that ? sonny : no , i want to close the deal . karpov syndicate is raising hell , and i need your family to shove them back into the hole they crawled out of . your father 's organization has strategic holdings and firepower . and it would be double what they have now if you guys did n't fight all the time . claudia : oh , you mean as compared to the love fest that you have going on with jason morgan ? sonny : you know , i can turn your family 's name into something that commands respect and fear . you 'll be in a position so your brother will be protected at all times from your father , from anyone . all i 've got to do is convince anthony that i 'm serious and then we 're all going to get what we want . claudia : i 'm impressed . your reputation is n't just talk . sonny : how about you ? claudia : i have to go home . change into something a little more bridal , and i 'll be right back . bye , honey . [ scene_break ] coleman : uno , dos . hey , if you beautiful girls decide you 've had too much , i 've got a sweet little room in the back where we can all sleep it off . carly : how many times have i told you no ? coleman : yeah , but you 've only got to say once , yes . hey , that goes for you , too , bensonhurst . what are you laughing about ? olivia : name 's olivia . and i 'm not that drunk , yet . carly : oh , that 's okay . coleman knows better than to take advantage . he knows that would make jason very unhappy . coleman : oh , what , so i should consider olivia here under jason 's watchful eye ? carly : absolutely . any friend of mine is a friend of jason 's . and you know how he feels about you hitting on me . coleman : the cat has no sense of romance . but i 'm not giving up hope . on either of you . olivia : interesting . carly : coleman ? olivia : he 's hot . a living , breathing mistake of the type i have made many , many times . carly : god , we all have regrets , do n't we ? olivia : who says i regret it ? anyway , my point is , you 're married to jax , hung up on sonny , and then jason 's the name you throw down with . what 's up with that ? carly : jason ? well , jason 's my best friend . he used to be friends with sonny , too . if they ever could have fixed it , they ca n't if he marries claudia . olivia : what a piece of work . carly : i do n't know which is worse -- sonny marrying claudia or sonny marrying kate . i mean , if sonny marries claudia , at least he knows what he 's getting himself into , right ? he can put his guards up . but if he married kate -- i mean , are you kidding me ? he actually fooled himself into believing he was in love with her . olivia : well , i think -- i think he loved connie , the girl that he knew back in high school . you know , back when life was a big chocolate cake . [ carly laughs ] olivia : well -- carly : but now she 's kate howard . she 's a snob . she 's a fake . she 's a phony . olivia : yeah , okay , she can be all those things . i tell you what she 's not , she 's not a pushover . make no mistake , connie 's pissed that she lost out here . and if you are on her spit list , you better watch your back . [ scene_break ] kate : okay , so we just shared our second kiss . and , you know , unlike the first one , i 'm not going to -- i 'm not going to rack myself with guilt over it . no , in fact , after all these intense months of being business partners , it 's like -- i do n't know -- seeing you for the first time , right ? kind of took my breath away . jax : is this sudden appreciation because of my irresistible charm , or because you want to get even with carly ? kate : what if it 's a little of both ? jax : that would be okay with me . [ scene_break ] diane : you have arrested and have detained my client without one shred of evidence . alexis : i can hold him 48 hours without charging him . diane : and why is that ? because you can ? alexis : i 've been jason 's attorney , too . so regardless of how we feel about him personally , he has committed crime after crime -- diane : very , very careful , alexis . alexis : and he has not paid the price . diane : you are dangerously close to a breach of ethics . alexis : it is time , diane , that the law won . diane : you mean it 's time you won . spinelli : gracious greetings to the two ladies of law and order . alexis : sorry , spinelli , he 's not allowed visitors . diane : now you 're just being petty . spinelli : i can provide stone cold with an alibi . alexis : i 'm sure you can . you 'll lie for him . carly will lie for him . you 'll lie for him . everybody 's going to lie for him . diane : any different than those who lie to themselves ? alexis : thanks . five minutes and be my guest coming up with a plausible explanation for why he 's dressed like a commando . spinelli : deepest apologies . had i not delayed you with my ill - timed confession , you could have changed into less incriminating attire . however , i shall redeem myself by providing means -- jason : no , no , no . i do not want you committing perjury to get me released . spinelli : stone cold can rest at ease . you shall soon be a man of freedom . i have it all under control . [ scene_break ] [ gunshot and glass shattering ] sam : do n't move . elizabeth : why ? sam : because we want them to think that we 're dead . elizabeth : wo n't they come inside and check ? sam : i hope so . elizabeth : so we let them think we 're dead , they come in , and then what ? cameron 's voice : mommy ! sam : no , no , no . shh . do n't call out . do n't say a word . elizabeth : he needs me . sam : the boys also need to get out of here with their mother . the russians followed us from the house . they know the boys are here . sam : here . stay close . this ai n't over . not by a long shot . [ scene_break ] spinelli : master 's release is at hand . i am a puppet master . jason : okay , listen to me . if you 're doing this to make up for going after the russians -- spinelli : okay , yes , i regret going against the master 's wishes . jason : i know you want them to pay for what they did to maxie . spinelli : no , no , but see , i am just as much to blame . i put fair maximista in danger because i walked the stone cold way . maximista 's noble and understandably distressed head of household forced me to face that dread realization . jason : mac told you to stay away from maxie ? spinelli : yeah , see , i know your secret pain . i am a fellow lone wolf . jason : just do n't get yourself in trouble for my sake , okay ? spinelli : rest at ease . i know my place in the stone cold world and because of that , i have reverted back to what i know -- cyberspace . jason : what does that mean ? spinelli : behold my potent prowess . that scowling man of maturity hails from interpol . i jackaled into agency communications and created an `` official `` version of the recent warehouse explosions and fatal shootings . jason : you did what ? spinelli : interpol now suspects they are the acts of a rival slavic gang of ruthless gun runners . as we speak , all evidence related to the case is being seized . without evidence , d.a . davis has no cause to hold you . [ scene_break ] kate : man , i used to pride myself on knowing what i wanted and weighing the costs of getting it . jax : yeah , i used to know when to quit . kate : hmm , like you should have with carly ? jax : you blame carly because you ca n't bring yourself to blame sonny , who is really at fault . kate : let 's just say i used to know when to quit , too . jax : only took , what , two bullets to convince you ? [ doorbell rings ] kate : ha ha ha . it 's not funny , jax . kate : i -- i do n't think we have anything -- sonny : i have something to tell you . sonny : in private . kate : no . actually , you can say whatever you have to say in front of jax or not at all . sonny : okay , listen , i 'm not going to -- whatever . you know , i do n't want to get into what i need to get into . okay , i 'm just going to tell you . i am marrying claudia zacchara tonight . kate : yeah , olivia told me . sonny : right . kate : i did n't know it was happening this soon . sonny : you know i do n't love claudia . you know i love you . kate : you love me ? sonny : right . kate : you love me , sonny ? we obviously have a different definition for the word . so you said what you came to say . you 've eased your guilty conscience , so you can just go now . sony : look , this is uncomfortable for me , okay ? but i know what you 're doing , and you 're doing because you 're hurt . i 'm just telling you , do n't do anything stupid . kate : i 've already done that . jax : well done . [ scene_break ] carly : michael 's shooting changed sonny . olivia : you 'd think . carly : it changed all of us . you have any kids ? olivia : a son . carly : yeah . imagine seeing him shot , fighting for his life , and then slipping into a coma . first , you just look for anyone to blame . then you blame yourself . and that 's what sonny did . he turned his back on the ugly truth and started living some fantasy . olivia : right , like getting out of the mob and making a life with connie . carly : you know , just living a lie . olivia : god , that man is just making one bad choice after another . i tell you , i mean , my cousin , she can be shallow and a pain in the neck , but she 's no black widow whack - job like claudia zacchara . carly : someone should talk to him . olivia : someone already tried . carly : someone should try again . olivia : all right . what do i have here ? how about this -- heads , you go talk to sonny . tails , i 'll do it . carly : okay , you got it . i like this game . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : why are we just sitting here ? sam : we 're buying time . elizabeth : we 're just going to wait for them to come get us ? sam : wait , sit , sit . elizabeth : what are you doing ? sam : i am protecting your children . as hard as it may be , given our past and everything , i know . you 've just got to trust me . you 've got to do what i say , okay ? i 've been counting bullets , and we 're really low on ammunition . we do n't have any to waste , and the longer it takes for them to make their next move outside , the better chance we have of jason or lucky coming here . elizabeth : how do you do this ? sam : i do n't know . i just do . you know , it 's nothing i choose . my father , he always operated on the edge of the law and having a little girl really came in handy . he used me for all his cons . it 's probably the only reason why he kept me around . elizabeth : that 's so sad . sam : i know , but , you know , it was what it was . what was i going to do ? i can remember one time we moved into a new town because an insurance scam went bad , and we get a knock on the door and i open it up , and it 's my dad 's mark standing there . and he had a tire iron in his hand . and sure enough , i mean , he showed up the intention of putting my old man out for good . but the point of this story is it was the first time that i had ever pointed a gun at someone , and i was eight . elizabeth : and you shot him ? sam : well , i shot at his feet . it 's the only thing i knew . it 's what i saw in the old western cowboy movies . but i did n't have good aim because i blew his big toe off . cameron 's voice : mommy ? elizabeth : i have to go to him . sam : okay . elizabeth , i will -- i swear to you , i will give my life to protect your children , okay ? [ scene_break ] jason : we 're in a different world now , spinelli . after 9/11 , agencies like interpol are tracking information a lot more closely . spinelli : okay , just as the street - smart stone cold has his finesse with firearms , so the jackal runs like a silent river under the radar in the world of technology . i left no trace of my intrusion . i made clear study of interpol policy . see , their investigation takes precedence regardless of rights of jurisdiction . observe . spinelli : your release is imminent . jason : you really need to be careful . spinelli : look , i just -- i just hope to restore my credibility . diane : your alibi wo n't be necessary , mr. grasshopper . mr. karpov and his gang have their fair share of enemies , and it seems a rival drug cartel is now suspected of blowing up the warehouse on water street . interpol is taking over the case , and they are taking with them all the collected evidence . which means -- alexis : you 're free to go . [ scene_break ] claudia : daddy ? anthony : hello . claudia : i thought you might like to know i 'm getting married tonight . anthony : good . sonny 's a man of his word . claudia : and what am i ? anthony : a beautiful daughter , at last doing what you know is in the best interest of the family . claudia : everybody gets what they want . anthony : especially you , claudia . you 'll literally be in bed with all that power . claudia : i thought we 'd do it at sonny 's . anthony : no . it happens here . i want this done my way . i 'll start making arrangements . claudia : candles and flowers ? anthony : ah , my son , you 're home just in time . johnny : for what ? anthony : you can be a witness . your sister is marrying sonny tonight . johnny : if claudia marries sonny , i walk away from this family for good . [ scene_break ] kate : would you do the honors ? jax : gladly . kate : oh , you know you 're the only reason that i 'm not running out that door and back to him , right ? i mean , that 's what he wanted , right ? that 's what he wants me to do , to go after him . jax : if you go after sonny , let me tell you what will happen . he will break off his engagement with claudia . he 'll tell you that he loves you and then , somehow , he 'll find his way back to carly because that 's what always happens . and because misery loves company . what we should do is rise above it . kate : okay . to sonny and carly . may they wind up hurting each other as much as they 've hurt us . [ scene_break ] max : claudia zacchara called . her father wants you two married at his house . apparently , he 's taking care of things . sonny : well , what 's the father of the bride supposed to do , max ? max : boss , this is n't a very good idea . sonny : i 've had my share of good ideas . where did it get me ? [ knock on door ] max : hey . carly : i hear you 're going to marry claudia zacchara . sonny : what are you going to do to stop me ? [ scene_break ] johnny : i ca n't believe you 're just throwing your life away like this . claudia : i 'm getting this out of this , too , johnny . things that i need . things i do n't have . things for you . johnny : you have her believing that selling herself off like cattle is the only way to bring sonny into this organization and build it up . anthony : and we 'll be that much stronger when it 's time for you to take over . johnny : i do n't care . i do n't want it . you 're buying me an empty , miserable life . you know that ? anthony : it 's too late , john . just sit back and let your sister do this for you . johnny : if the two of you go through with this , i am out . anthony : sure . johnny : i mean it . i will walk away from this business , from this family , from you . anthony : talk some sense to your brother , claudia . i got things to do . claudia : johnny , please . i know you do n't like it , but i have to do this . johnny : what ? marry a guy who will kill you if he finds out that you put his son in a coma ? claudia : i 'm not planning on bringing that up on my wedding night or ever . johnny : there is plenty of time for that truth to come out , claudia . plenty of people know . claudia : like who ? you , me , daddy ? johnny : nikolas cassadine . claudia : there 's nobody for him to tell . john , johnny , i need you here with me . i love you , and you are the only person that i trust . johnny : hey , and i love you , too , claudia . which is why i do n't want you taking this risk to get me something that i do n't want . unless you 're lying to yourself and thinking that once you and sonny are married , he 's going to fall in love with you . claudia : i 'm doing this . johnny : then i wo n't stand by and watch . claudia : johnny , please . i need you here with me . johnny : the bride wears black , huh ? mourning your choice already . [ scene_break ] carly : do not do this . sonny : i have my reasons . carly : there 's not a good enough reason in the world to marry claudia zacchara . sonny : i need to know the truth . carly : the truth about what , sonny ? sonny : okay , through everything , up until the last second , karpov said he did n't shoot kate . what if he was telling the truth ? carly : who then ? the zaccharas ? sonny : i do n't know . ric , anthony , claudia . all i 'm saying is i will be in a position to find out . carly : no , you 're going to be in a position to die , because someone is going to be waiting to double - cross you , and they are going to take you out . sonny : i 'm willing to take that chance . carly : does jason know about this ? sonny : what ? there 's no need to bring him up right now . i just want you to do something for me , okay ? carly : what 's that ? sonny : okay , if you do n't want to do it for yourself , do it for morgan . take the gun . carly : no . sonny : i am marrying claudia tonight . look -- carly : do not do this . do not do this . sonny : it 's no secret that you are my ex - wife . we have kids together . right ? you gave me the alibi when karpov died . the syndicate could be coming after you . you need to protect yourself and protect morgan . un . carly : what about kate ? does she know you 're going to marry claudia tonight ? sonny : i went over to her place to tell her , and she was with jax . carly : doing what ? sonny : she acted like she did n't give a damn , but i know she was hurt . but it 's better that kate 's hurt than dead . [ scene_break ] kate : no , clarice , i told you i already sent it . well , why do n't you look harder ? thank you . jax : what 's that ? kate : oh , just one of the dozens of seating arrangements for my wedding with sonny . i agonized over this . jax : there . kate : okay , thanks . jax : agony over ? kate : so you want to tell me how wronged you 've been ? jax : no , i do n't . kate : you sure ? jax : instead of talking about those -- those things , let 's just forget about the past . let 's move on to something a little more fun . kate : well , you know what they say -- living well is the best revenge . jax : yeah , they say that [ scene_break ] alexis : did you come here for another assault ? why do n't you just take a bat to my head ?

[ scene_break ] robert : luke told me that he 'd spoken with you and that he 'd seen you , but i was n't gon na believe anything till i could see you with my own eyes . robin : [ chuckles ] dad , it 's me . it 's really me . robert : you 're beautiful . you 're absolutely gorgeous . but , you know , i knew when i was on that clinic floor that this was no dream . i ... i - i failed you , baby . i really -- i so failed you . when obrecht stuck me with that needle , i could n't tell anyone . robin : no , no , dad . you did n't fail me . you saved my life . that needle was meant for me . she was gon na kill me . if you had n't come , i mean , that 's what she would have done . and then she used it against you . robert : well , better that your old man get stuck with a needle ... robin : [ sighs ] robert : ... than you . still , i should have been able to -- should have been able to handle obrecht . but i was just so scared that they were gon na hurt you . robin : i was terrified when i saw you collapse . oh , daddy , are you okay ? robert : i 'm good . i 'm fine . mind you , i just snapped out of a coma three weeks ago , but -- but , you know , i should have stopped obrecht and that bloody handler of hers . robin : it 's not your fault , okay ? none of it is . the only thing that matters is that you 're here now . i mean , jerry showed me that footage of you and mom in that lab . that 's where he was keeping me for months . jerry threatened me . he said that if i told anyone that i was alive that he would kill you and mom . that 's why i could n't tell anyone -- not even when i saw patrick and emma . robert : you saw them ? robin : i did , on halloween . but i was wearing a mask , so no one recognized me . dad , i saw patrick , and i saw emma . and she 's so big , dad . i mean , it took everything i had to not tell her who i was . robert : must have been tough . but you 've been so strong through all of this . it 's over now , though . robin : dad , i was in that lab for months , trying to figure out how to get out . i mean , how did you and mom escape ? robert : all those years with the wsb were n't a complete waste , you know . that and an endless supply of tutti - frutti gum , courtesy of your mother . robin : okay , well , you 'll have to tell me about that later . robert : mm - hmm . robin : but mom -- where 's mom ? [ scene_break ] anna : i said drop the gun now . dr. obrecht : you 're in no position to issue orders , frau polizeichef . as you see , i am the one with the gun inches from your lover . duke : anna , be careful . faison is down -- dr. obrecht : quiet ! faison is not your concern . i am ! i give the orders now , and i say you drop the gun , or i fire . anna : you do n't need to hurt him . you already tried to kill him once . dr. obrecht : that was merely an accident . that propofol - champagne cocktail was meant for you . if only you had drunk it , as i intended , we all could have been spared a great deal of trouble . duke : glad i took the glass and not anna . dr. obrecht : yes , yes . you saved your bony beloved 's life by accident ! but this time , you are my target , lavery , and you can be sure my aim will be true . anna : you have no reason to hurt him . dr. obrecht : i do . the best reason of all . to hurt you . [ scene_break ] sabrina : [ laughs ] oh , it 's so good to see you ! emma : sabrina , why are you hugging that strange man on your wedding day ? felix : hey , she 's not married yet , and he is far from strange . sabrina : emma , felix , this is my cousin juan santiago . felix : man , i ca n't believe juan santiago is in my apartment . i 'm a huge fan of your music . juan : thank you , felix . it 's great to meet you . and who is this beautiful young lady ? sabrina : juan , this is emma drake . i 'm so lucky that after today , i get to be a mommy to emma . emma : hello . thanks for telling sabrina about port charles . my daddy and i are really happy she came here . juan : aw . you are very welcome , emma . and i 'm pretty sure you 're all very lucky to have found each other . sabrina : and you two already know each other . juan : hey , elizabeth . long time , no see . [ scene_break ] ava : hello , patrick . i 'm not sure if you remember me . patrick : yeah , i remember you . from when franco was in the hospital . you 're ava jerome . julian jerome 's your brother . turns out that he 's not quite as dead as everybody thought he was . ava : yes , that 's right . i see you keep up with your current events . patrick : well , it 's not that difficult when your brother plasters the story all over the front page of his own newspaper . ava : julian just wanted to clear the air , let the public know that he is indeed an upright , legitimate citizen . patrick : right , well , i ca n't speak for the general public , but i 've heard enough about you and your brother to know you 're bad news , and i ca n't think of any reason why you 'd need to talk to me . so i 'm gon na cut this short . i 'm getting married in a few hours . ava : oh , i know . that 's precisely why i 'm here . this wedding is moving rather quickly , is n't it ? from what i hear , you 've only been engaged a few weeks . patrick : and that 's none of your business . ava : no . probably not . marriage is such a permanent step , a solemn ceremony in front of friends , family . patrick : if you 're looking for an invitation , it 's not gon na happen . ava : oh , no , no . no , you 've misunderstood me . i have no interest in attending your wedding . in fact , i do n't think you should be having a wedding at all . [ scene_break ] britt : brad ! you should n't just barge in like that . you scared me . i could 've dropped this . brad : um ... it 's my lab . and you 're in here removing things from it . britt : well , look , i just need to take this , and then you can have your lab all to yourself . pretend you never saw me . brad , get out of my way . brad : no . you 're not taking anything out of here yet . and you 're not ordering me around anymore , you or your royal boyfriend , okay ? i 'm sick of it . britt : oh , uh , really ? i - i do n't know how you could be sick of it . it 's not like you actually follow the orders . you were supposed to keep watch while our scientist was in here . brad : so ? britt : so , nikolas told me you disappeared after he specifically asked you to keep watch . brad : what was so important i had to stand watch here in the first place ? and , uh , who was that woman nikolas brought in here to work ? britt : it 's none of your business . brad : why ? because it was dr. drake 's dead wife ? [ scene_break ] juan : so good to see you . elizabeth : you too . juan : well , i 'm just glad i could get here in time . sabrina : juan , i 'm thrilled to see you . but what are you doing here ? i mean , i thought you were on tour . how did you even know about the wedding ? juan : your friend elizabeth called me . sabrina : what ? elizabeth : well , felix asked me to track him down , so i did . sabrina : wow . it 's so nice of you to come on such short notice . juan : and i did n't come empty - handed . hold on . sabrina : oh . does this mean you 're coming to the wedding ? i see you brought your suit . juan : ah , no . this is n't my suit . this is for you . your wedding dress . [ scene_break ] patrick : i 'm sorry . why is my wedding any of your concern ? ava : i think you should reconsider , dr. drake . i do n't think this wedding should happen . patrick : well , you do n't know what you 're talking about because you do n't know me , and you sure as hell do n't know sabrina . so why do you care if we have a wedding ? ava : i do n't care , actually . but i have a very good friend that does . patrick : right . so this is about carlos , right ? because i know that he works for your family . ava : we 've been friends for a long time , like i said . patrick : well , is your friend that desperate that he 'd send his mobbed - up employer to do his dirty work ? i mean , what is this , some kind of veiled threat ? i marry sabrina , i end up with a horse 's head in my bed ? ava : please do n't insult me . i 'm not here to threaten you . i 'm here to help . patrick : really ? what are you gon na do to help me ? ava : i can enlighten you . you see , there 's something you should know , dr. drake . your wife is alive . [ scene_break ] robin : where 's mom ? is she with you ? robert : well , she 's at wyndemere . myself , her , and luke split up in order to find you . robin : what about jerry ? robert : oh , i shot the bastard . well , not fatally , tempted as i was . but he promised to tell me where you were , so i 've got him stashed over at the metro court hotel . robin : i kept telling myself that you and mom would get the better of jerry and that you would come and save me . but maybe i was expecting too much . you and mom have your limits . robert : not where our daughter 's concerned . nothing and no one is gon na stop us -- not an obrecht . not a jerry jacks . and certainly not a faison . robin : [ sighs ] dad , faison -- he 's here . he 's armed , and he 's getting weirder and more desperate . i mean , who knows what he 'll do when he finds out that you , mom , and luke are all on the island ? robert : sweetheart , we are on it . [ scene_break ] faison : really , spencer , i doubt you have it in you to pull that trigger . luke : oh , but you 're wrong . hmm ? it would give me the greatest of pleasure to splatter your brains across these walls . faison : that bloodthirsty ? luke : oh , yeah . after what you did to my family ? you took my son , and you made us believe he was dead . faison : helena was your real enemy . i was just providing a service . and i was the one who told you that lucky was alive . luke : after you brainwashed him to hate me and his mother . you stole him , just like you stole robin from anna and robert . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : by hurting lavery , i will hurt you , anna devane ... the way you have hurt me . anna : you kidnap my daughter and you hold her hostage . you try to poison duke . and then you break faison out of prison . and somehow i 'm the one who 's hurt you ? dr. obrecht : the air you breathe hurts me . the physical space you occupy , the molecular shifts of the atmosphere when you move through it hurts me . you infect everything and everyone you come in contact with . anna : i infect what ? dr. obrecht : yes . you infected my cesar when he was young . and he can never be free of you , no matter what i do . i 've given him everything , done anything he 's asked . i even gave him a child . and still he sees only you . anna : i do n't want any of that . i despise faison . his twisted obsession with me has nearly destroyed my life . if i could have given him to you and be rid of him forever , do n't you think i would have done that ? dr. obrecht : because you are a fool . someone as petty as you could never understand cesar 's genius . you could never deserve his love . yet he still pines for you . your very existence hurts me . your beauty , your brains , your charm , your skills -- all the things cesar loves about you hurt me ! all the reasons he loves you are the reasons why he could never love me . duke : god , you are insane . you blame anna for faison 's deranged fixation on her , and you 're gon na kill me to punish her ? dr. obrecht : yes . i want to see the color drain from your face . i want to feel the ache in your heart as i shoot and kill the man you love . [ scene_break ] faison : if you really want to kill me ... do n't you think you 'd already shot me ? luke : good point . [ shoots faison ] [ breathes deeply ] [ scene_break ] britt : you know that 's insane , right ? where did you get this crazy idea ? brad : from sabrina 's ex . britt : what ? wait a minute . sabrina has an ex ? i mean , as in someone other than patrick that wanted her ? brad : yeah , some hot - looking guy named carlos . he 's the one who brought up robin scorpio - drake 's name . britt : [ scoffs ] well , i mean , he sounds like an idiot to me . i mean , so -- so you two just decided that a dead woman would be working in here rather than , i do n't know , telling her husband and child that she 's alive ? brad : she 's supposed to be dead . how would i know what she 'd do ? the woman obviously has issues . britt : well , brad , what did you tell carlos ? brad : relax . okay , i did n't say a word to carlos . i told him ellie was the woman working in the lab . but we both know that 's a lie , do n't we ? hmm ? you told me to get rid of her , give her the day off . then nikolas shows up with this mysterious scientist lady who no one 's supposed to see . so what 's the deal ? is scorpio - drake back from the dead or what ? britt : [ scoffs ] no ! but even if she was , why do you care ? brad : because of felix . [ scene_break ] emma : sabrina does n't need a wedding dress . she already has one . sabrina : yeah , that 's true . i mean , i do n't understand . felix already picked out a beautiful dress for me . felix : it 's okay , honey . we both know that that was n't the dress . it was just always a plan `` b. `` you deserve nothing but the best on your wedding day , so i asked elizabeth to get in touch with your cousin to find the dress that you really wanted . juan : it took a little digging , but i found it . sabrina : wait , you do n't -- you do n't mean -- elizabeth : will you just open it already ? ! sabrina : [ gasps ] oh , my god . it 's my mother 's wedding dress . [ scene_break ] patrick : what did you just say ? ava : your wife , robin -- she 's alive . patrick : right , so this is about the phone call . was it you ? your friend carlos convinced you to try and help him gaslight me ? i mean , i know that he 's trying to come in between me and sabrina , but using my dead wife -- that is disgusting . ava : i do n't know what you 're talking about -- patrick : i know it was n't robin on the phone call , so it must have been you through all that convenient static . i mean , i got to say you kind of did sound like her , as much as i could hear -- or as little as i could actually hear . ava : patrick , i assure you , i did n't call you pretending to be anybody . it probably was robin trying to reach you . patrick : get off my property . ava : i 'm telling you the truth . and carlos saw her . carlos saw robin alive . [ scene_break ] robert : so , do you have any idea at all where obrecht is ? robin : no , i do n't . no one 's seen her for at least 24 hours . faison said that she took the launch , but nikolas thinks faison 's lying about that . robert : hmm , faison lying . that 's a surprise . robin : [ sighs ] robert : look , we got here , and the place was empty . where is everyone ? robin : britt went to general hospital . i - i do n't know if luke told you , but i was able to formulate a replacement cure for jerry , so britt went to go get it . nikolas went into the tunnels to look for obrecht , and that 's when faison locked me up in here . dad , i was really starting to feel helpless , like i was so close to getting my life back and it was n't going to happen . i could feel faison unspooling and like everything was slipping away , and then the door opened , and there you were ... my dad , my ... my hero . robert : oh , kind of a sad excuse for a hero , especially since my timing is so off . robin : [ scoffs ] when faison captured you and mom , i thought i might not ever see you again . thank god i was wrong and you 're both safe . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : do n't come any closer . even you are not so perfect that you will get a clean shot . anna : do n't shoot . put the gun down . please do n't shoot duke . dr. obrecht : why ever not ? anna : because if you do , it 'll be the last thing you ever do on this earth . i promise you . dr. obrecht : hmph . i doubt it . but even so , it will be worth it to know that i took away the man you love , just as you have taken cesar away from me . anna : there 's another way through this . dr. obrecht : oh , yes . [ chuckles ] i should have a change of heart , surrender my weapon , and turn myself over to you . you and lavery can have a romantic reunion and then haul me off to the wsb , where i 'll be offered a chance to testify against cesar while you get a commendation and a pay raise . i can console myself in my cell at steinmauer knowing that you and lavery are living happily ever after ! i would rather die where i stand than allow you a moment 's peace . anna : you 're going about this all the wrong way . obrecht , listen to me . it 's me you despise , is n't it ? not duke . just let him go ... and kill me . [ scene_break ] luke : burn in hell , you miserable freak . [ sighs ] check his pulse , spencer . do n't make that mistake again . [ grunts ] bulletproof vest , right ? faison : precaution . simply precaution . luke : i knew i should have shot you in the face . faison : you should . now it 's my turn to put a bullet in you . [ scene_break ] anna : if you shoot me , then you 'd have cesar all to yourself . that was your original plan , was n't it , when you first came to town . you just said so yourself . at mac and felicia 's party , that drug - laced drink -- that was for me . here i am . you hate me . do n't you ? not duke . let him go . duke : anna , do n't do it . do n't sacrifice yourself for me . dr. obrecht : i do n't trust you . you say you 'd do anything for lavery 's freedom , yet you stand there poised to strike . you think you can threaten me and confuse me , and then you shoot me when my guard is down . do you honestly think i would let that happen ? you are playing games . anna : okay . i 'll put my gun down . act of faith . all right ? then you can do with me what you will . duke : anna , no . dr. obrecht : all right . do it . put down your gun , hmm . [ scene_break ] robin : dad , i 'm so sorry that for even a second you thought that i was dead . [ sighs ] robert : well , it 's a bad habit in this family . robin : and it always comes back to faison . robert : it 's this sick obsession he 's got with your mother . he 's stalked her her whole life . she blames herself for his obsession . robin : i think that 's why i hate faison most of all . because he uses the people she loves to hurt her and torture her . robert : well ... it 's all over now . soon as obrecht and faison are dealt with , then we celebrate . robin : i really can not wait to get my family back . but i really , really want to see you hand faison his ass first . robert : sweetheart ... your wish is my command . let 's find that butt and kick it . [ scene_break ] emma : you were right , sabrina . this is the perfect dress for you . so pretty . sabrina : [ chuckles ] it 's exactly how i remember it from the picture on the mantel in my mother 's house . and you found it ! [ chuckles ] it 's a miracle . juan , i could never thank you enough . juan : do n't thank me . thank your friends . they made it happen . sabrina : felix . thank you . elizabeth , thank you ! i always dreamed of getting married in my mother 's dress , but i never thought it could come true . elizabeth : well , you said you thought everything would be perfect for you and patrick on your wedding if you had this dress , and we wanted everything to be perfect . felix : hell yes . you are marrying prince charming . and , damn it , almost perfect just does n't cut it . sabrina : oh , you guys . i love you both so much . elizabeth : aw . [ scene_break ] britt : felix ? what does that annoying twinkie have to do with anything ? brad : if you must know , we 're dating . britt : what ? brad : i know . look , felix invited me to be his date for sabrina 's wedding . but if that dead woman turns out to be alive , it 's gon na make for a pretty crappy wedding day for sabrina . britt : so ? brad : i know . i ca n't stand her either . but she 's felix 's best friend . britt : again , i ask , so ? brad : so ... i 've got a real shot with felix and -- britt : wait , why would you even want a shot with felix ? i mean , even you can do better than that , brad . brad : and if this wedding is about to blow up in sabrina 's face , i could score some major points if i give him a heads up , so ... you gon na tell me if the woman working in here was drake 's dead wife or not ? [ scene_break ] ava : carlos told me he saw your wife in the hospital lab . he even spoke to her . patrick : carlos did n't know my wife . ava : he saw her picture when he was here . it 's a bit cold . might i come in ? patrick : so let me get this straight . a woman that looked like robin went up to carlos and said that she was my wife . ava : no . she gave him a fake name , actually . later , he recognized her . he was sure it was robin . she 's a doctor , yes ? she was in the lab working when he saw her . patrick : this is exactly why i know carlos is lying . because if my wife was alive , she would n't be in the gh lab . and if carlos is so concerned , why did n't he man up and come and talk to me himself ? why did he send you ? ava : he did n't send me . he does n't even know i 'm here . i told him to come and speak to you himself , but he said that you would n't believe him any more than sabrina did . patrick : he told sabrina ? ava : and is n't it interesting that she did n't tell you ? patrick : no . it 's not . because she knows carlos is lying , just like i do . ava : or maybe there 's a little part of sabrina that wonders if it 's true . maybe there 's a little part of you that 's wondering the same thing , dr. drake . [ scene_break ] sabrina : you 'll stay for the wedding , wo n't you ? juan : i wish i could , but i am actually on tour . i got the pilot to take a little detour on our way to my gig , but tonight i have to be in san diego . sabrina : oh , my gosh ! juan , you went to so much trouble . juan : of course , i did . because you 're worth it . i wish you every happiness in the world , prima . you 're gon na be a beautiful bride . sabrina : once again , you 've changed my life . juan : no , no . do n't give me too much credit . come on . [ chuckles ] sabrina : you 're the one who told me about port charles and general hospital , and now ... you 've made my wedding dream come true . wearing that dress will make it feel like mama is actually there with me . [ speaking spanish ] te amo . juan : te amo . and you -- you 'll take care of my cousin for me , wo n't you ? emma : we will . juan : [ chuckles ] sabrina : [ chuckles ] felix : thanks again , juan . juan : yeah . thank you . elizabeth : i 'll walk you out . i 'm sorry you have to go so soon . juan : yeah , me too . it was great seeing you , and you look wonderful . elizabeth : thank you for doing all of this . i did n't even know if you 'd take my call . juan : [ chuckles ] are you kidding ? hearing your voice brought back so many memories ... of you ... and emily ... i was so shocked , and i 'm sorry to hear when she died . elizabeth : yeah , i know . i still ca n't believe she 's gone . i mean , it seems like just yesterday we were all hanging out . juan : yeah . elizabeth : life goes on , right ? are you married ? juan : uh , yeah . yeah . to a wonderful girl named becky . elizabeth : oh . she 's a very lucky lady . juan : no , no . i 'm the lucky one . but what about you ? you -- you have someone special in your life ? elizabeth : no . i was seeing someone , but it did n't work out , so it 's just me and my boys . juan : well , i have a feeling that 's gon na change . you 're far too special to be alone for so long . have fun at the wedding . who knows , you know ? you never know what could happen . [ scene_break ] patrick : this is ridiculous . ava : but what if it is n't ? what if carlos really did see your wife ? patrick : okay , if robin was alive , if she was in port charles , she would be here with me . she would n't be hiding out at general hospital . ava : how can you say that for sure ? she 's been missing for almost two years . maybe there 's a reason she stayed away . patrick : she 's not -- she did n't stay away , okay ? she 's -- she 's gone . ava : are you sure ? patrick : why are you doing this ? ava : i 'm doing this because i care about carlos . patrick : [ scoffs ] ava : he loves sabrina more than anything , and i ... i happen to understand what that feels like . to know in your heart that you belong with someone and that someone wants to be with someone else . patrick : well , that 's very sad , but go project your romantic disappointments on somebody else and leave me and sabrina out of it . ava : i do n't even know sabrina . but i know she 's making a mistake -- throwing away a man who loves her for some romantic fantasy . patrick : oh , no , see , me and sabrina , it 's not a fantasy . we 're getting married . ava : carlos would walk through fire for that woman . i do n't know why . but his commitment to her goes a lot deeper than yours appears to . patrick : and you feel qualified to make that observation based on a 10-minute acquaintance ? ava : oh , dr. drake . i 'm sure you 're a really great guy . but your reaction proves that you are still deeply in love with your wife and therefore should not be gearing up to marry somebody e -- patrick : get out of my house . ava : carlos can be with the woman he loves . and maybe so can you . patrick : i already am . i 've had enough . leave . and tell carlos to stay the hell away from me and sabrina . ava : i would n't be too quick to get married unless you know for sure . if there 's even the slightest chance that robin 's alive , would n't you want to know ? [ scene_break ] faison : your pointless life is over , spencer . oh , yes , it is . robert : i would n't do that if i were you . luke : bullet - proof vest ! aim high ! faison : ah ! robin : it 's over , faison . luke : no getting out of it this time , you son of a bitch . it took you long enough , captain kangaroo . another second , and i 'd have been a plate of yesterday 's mashed potatoes . robert : yeah , i needed to reacquaint myself with my daughter . sorry for the delay . where 's anna ?

[ chuckles ] it 's fine . jason : i 'm so sorry . i did n't mean to grab you . elizabeth : it was an accident . it 's -- do n't worry about it . you were really getting yourself worked up . jason : i was ? elizabeth : yeah . you must have been having a nightmare . do you remember what it was about ? sam : [ chuckles ] hey . patrick : hi . sam : happy turkey day . patrick : yeah . back at you . sam : come in . patrick : you sure ? i do n't want to , uh , impose if you 're busy . sam : busy ? no . do i look busy ? and , shh , danny is taking a nap . patrick : oh , yeah ? sam : i 've just been going over the case . patrick : yeah ? good . um , that 's actually what i wanted to talk to you about . sam : yeah ? patrick : did you find anything in the blueprints that larry was hiding ? do you -- do you really think that this mask that they 're making could -- could be of luke ? helena : how are you feeing ? luke : oh , no . run away back to your crypt , you ... dead , moldy cadaver . helena : my , the cobwebs must be thicker than i thought . luke : the last time you haunted me , i was at death 's door . things must be worse than i thought if i 'm hallucinating you again . helena : and what makes you so sure that i 'm a hallucination ? anna : i do n't understand why you 're representing julian . i do n't get it , given your history . alexis : well , everyone deserves a defense . he 's also been held for almost 48 hours and has yet to be arrested . anna : [ chuckles ] there 's still a little time . alexis : anna , if you had any real proof , you would have already filed real charges . it 's thanksgiving . we can -- we can do the paperwork now or we can wait till everybody wants to go home and be with their families . anna : all right . i 'll make the call . alexis : thank you . anna : why are you sticking your neck out for this guy ? eh , whatever the reason , i hope he 's worth it . luke : no . i 'm not letting you in my head . you are dead . you -- you are a rotting corpse . helena : [ laughs ] and certainly no member of my family ever bounced back from the brink before . luke : there was no brink with you . i shot you , point blank , in the heart . i watched you die . helena : but it was not a silver bullet . luke : so , what ? you 're a werewolf now ? helena : no . simply more ... resilient . though i must admit , luke , you made a valiant effort . but ... you still made a mistake by underestimating my talent for survival . luke : no , no , no . helena : long live the queen , as they say . luke : you 're dead , your majesty . you 're not real . helena : real enough for you ? duke : i assume your arraignment went as poorly as mine . sonny : [ sighs ] duke : i want you to know i refused to cut a deal . they asked me to . i did n't turn against you . and i wo n't , going forward . sonny : it 's not gon na get to that . there 's not gon na be a trial . duke : what do you mean ? sonny : i pled guilty so carly would go free . michael : what the hell are you doing here ? carly : i wanted to see you . michael : who let you in ? carly : alice let me in . michael : remind me to talk to her about unwanted guests . carly : michael -- michael : what ? carly : please do n't be like this . i know you 're hurt . we have n't spoken since -- michael : no , i know how long it 's been . it has n't been long enough . carly : can you please just listen to me for -- michael : no . carly : let me talk . michael : no . carly : please ! just for a minute . we -- we can figure something out . we can find a way to talk about this . michael : figure something out ? ! carly : yes . michael : you let aj 's killer walk free , and you lied to my face about it . i 'm pretty sure that 's cut and dry . carly : no , it 's not , okay ? it 's not . so if you could just hear me out -- michael : i completely disagree , okay ? now get out . carly : michael , please -- michael : i said get the hell out of here before i call the cops ! jason : i barely remember having a dream , let alone what it was about . you 're hurt , are n't you ? elizabeth : no . [ chuckles ] no . jason : i 'm sorry . here you are , letting me stay at your house , and i practically attacked you . elizabeth : jake , you grabbed my wrist . you were barely awake when you did it . that 's not an attack . jason : can i do anything ? elizabeth : actually , there is something you can do . jason : name it . i 'm sorry . name it . elizabeth : how are you at carving turkey ? jason : uh [ chuckles ] what ? elizabeth : i 'm hosting thanksgiving . you do remember thanksgiving , do n't you ? jason : yeah . yeah , that 's -- that 's that time of year when the fat guy in the red suit comes down the chimney , right ? elizabeth : ah . jason : ah . elizabeth : yeah . [ chuckles ] jason : i remember thanksgiving . i just do n't remember who i used to spend it with . carly : you would n't call the police on me . michael : you 're right . there 's no point . 'cause you 'd probably worm your way out of that one , too . that 's how you 're here , right ? that 's how you 're here and not -- not in prison -- because all the charges against you were dropped ? carly : they were . michael : i saw you after the arraignment . carly : you were at the courthouse ? michael : not to support you , but to make sure you and sonny were carted off to prison . carly : i 'm sorry you did n't get your wish . michael : makes sense , does n't it ? you help the don of the port charles mafia cover up a murder , help him screw over your own son , and you get rewarded in kind . duke : carly went free ? sonny : i made a deal with -- with baldwin , and i pled guilty in exchange for dropping all the charges against her . duke : so all that 's left is your sentencing . why did n't you fight ? diane 's a brilliant attorney . she could have -- she could have got you acquitted . sonny : doubtful . duke : well , maybe , but at the very least , she could have got lesser charges . sonny : duke , one of us had to go down for this . it 's all right that , you know , it was me . duke : well , i hope carly appreciates what you 've done for her . you 've traded your freedom for hers . sonny : not just carly . [ clears throat ] you 've been a good friend . you 've been loyal , which means a lot to me , and i appreciate everything that you 've done . so i just want you to know that i made the same deal for you . you 're a free man . anna : all right , so , an officer will escort him up . alexis : uh , thank you . i 'll wait outside . happy thanksgiving , anna . anna : to you , as well . agent sloane : alexis davis , right ? alexis : yes . uh , do i know you ? agent sloane : your reputation as a litigator precedes you . alexis : thank you , i think . um , if you -- if you just -- agent sloane : mm - hmm . alexis : thank you . anna : come in , by all means . agent sloane : well , she was certainly in a hurry . anna : it 's the holidays , you know ? agent sloane : how about you ? got a minute ? anna : yeah . no , i 'm busy . agent sloane : i was being polite . we need to discuss what you did to faison . sam : you know , i - i spent half the night trying to make sense of this whole thing . i was hoping it might tell me what the schematics of the mask were . patrick : nothing ? sam : well , it 's not exactly my area of expertise . patrick : what is your area of expertise ? sam : [ chuckles ] silly putty . duh . patrick : duh . sam : duh . patrick : i was actually thinking about your father . sam : julian ? patrick : yeah . maybe we can talk to him . if this mask is being made in league with the mob , maybe -- maybe he has some insight . sam : well , he is actually unreachable at the moment . julian is being held for questioning . alexis : i can take it from there . julian : so , you did it . alexis : so i did . julian : well , thank you for going to bat for me . alexis : i did n't do it for you . i did it for luke . if there 's any truth to your insane story , than he is in trouble and i need to help him . helena : still not convinced ? oh . i 'd be more than happy to provide more proof . luke : no ! no ! what the hell 's going on ? ! what is this ? another mask ? what , are you faison in a gender - bending mode ? helena : no . i assure you , i am not that maniacal dane . it is me , luke , in the flesh . luke : no , it 's not possible . it 's not possible . helena : have n't you learned by now that anything is possible ? i had far too many plans to remain on the sidelines . luke : pl - plans ? wait a minute . you 're working with that satanic doppelganger of mine . come on . level with me , you moldy corpse . helena : ooh , i love it when you talk sexy . luke : who is living my life ? ! helena : a man as cunning as you has n't figured it out yet ? aw , but alas , that 's been the nature of our relationship always -- you disappointing me over and over again . luke : it 's a gift . what do you want ? helena : [ chuckles ] such complicated questions . luke : dig deep . helena : what i want and what must be done , luke , are two very different things . no , your escape attempt changed everything . and as much as it pains me to say it ... there simply ca n't be two luke spencers running around . julian : so , you did n't say anything to anna , did you ? alexis : no . because your argument made sense . what if the police alert whoever is holding luke ? we ca n't have that . julian : good . alexis : okay . so , i held up my end of the bargain . now it 's your turn . tell me where luke is . julian : i ca n't do that . alexis : that is the only reason that i had you released . julian : i 'm coming with you . alexis : you do n't think that i can handle myself ? julian : no , i know you can . but you 're not gon na get through the front door without me , let alone to luke . so , like it or not , we 're gon na do this together . agent sloane : just because faison 's not where you left him does n't absolve you of conspiring with your ex - husband to imprison and torture the man . anna : what 's your point ? agent sloane : my point is -- is that all of the above is illegal . this is n't going away , commissioner . anna : what was i supposed to do ? hmm ? was i supposed to just hope that faison does n't escape when he 's escaped from every single prison that he 's been in , ever ? or just wait around for him to suddenly resurface and torture me and my family and god knows who else ? what was i supposed to do ? i could n't let that happen . agent sloane : but you did . after all your efforts to keep faison locked up , he 's on the loose again -- an international terrorist . and the only person responsible this time is you . sonny : i had one move -- make sure my people were protected . duke : alexis never mentioned any of this to me . sonny : alexis does n't know 'cause diane -- according to diane , you know , she 's in some kind of emergency , so i had diane take the lead . so ... you 're getting out today . duke : i hardly know what to say to you . it 's ... thank you . sonny : you 'd have done the same for me . you 've already proved that . duke : well , if there 's anything i can ever do for you , just ask . sonny : matter of fact , there is . duke : name it . sonny : i need you to take over the business for me . michael : that 's how this business works , right ? you do something for the boss , he does something for you . carly : your father 's not my boss . michael : close enough . and do n't call him my father . carly : you know it was n't like that , michael . i had no idea that sonny was gon na sacrifice himself . i was fully prepared to face the consequences . michael : really ? is that why you pled not guilty ? because you were so prepared to go to prison ? carly : i was following diane 's orders . michael : oh , to hell with that . in your mind , you did n't do anything wrong . carly : that is not true . i feel terrible that aj is dead . michael : really ? i 'm sure you do . carly : keeping this secret was the only way to handle this . michael : it was all about protecting sonny . carly : yes . but it was mostly about protecting you . everything was about protecting you . michael : if you say that to me one more time -- carly : it 's the truth . and you know what ? i 'd do it again . you want to know why ? michael : because you 're a horrible , deceitful person ? carly : no . because i did n't want you to lose the man who raised you . i did n't want you to lose the man who loves you more than life . michael : sonny lost me the second he pulled that trigger . there 's no way i could have a relationship with the man who murdered my father . carly : sonny is your father as much as i am your mother , michael . michael : i do n't want anything to do with either of you . you know what i - i see when i look at sonny ? i see the man who hung aj from a meat hook and made him sign away all of his rights . carly : do n't . do n't you dare paint aj as the victim here . he was not a saint . michael : yeah , yeah , sure . yeah , aj made his fair share of mistakes . carly : oh , yeah . he did . he kidnapped you , and he made your father and i believe that you were dead . michael : because he wanted his child back -- the one that you stole from him ! carly : michael , there was so much going on that you do n't even understand ! michael : and then you forced the corinthos name on me . now , i - i could n't do anything about it back then , but you know what ? i can now . elizabeth : hi . jason : hi . elizabeth : did you have a nice shower ? jason : yeah . the water pressure 's great . elizabeth : thank you . not that i have anything to do with that , obviously . it 's just , you know , the pipes behind the walls or ... whatever you want to call it . what 's up ? what can i do for you ? jason : have you seen my shirt ? elizabeth : oh , yes . it 's ... here , under the kids ' clothes . this is -- yeah , here . jason : thank you . thank you for washing it . elizabeth : mm - hmm . jason : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : you gon na wear that to thanksgiving dinner ? jason : uh , well ... yeah . it 's either this or the sweats that i sleep in , because these are the only clothes that i own . elizabeth : maybe we can do something about that . jason : what are we gon na do ? what 's this ? elizabeth : oh , god . you 're one of those . just open it . jason : [ chuckles ] okay . elizabeth : i - i thought the khakis would be a little dressier than jeans and that blue shirt would go well with your eyes . i do n't know . what do you think ? do you like them ? jason : they 're great . elizabeth : you liar . you hate them . jason : no . not at all . this is ... very thoughtful , but , uh ... i ca n't accept them . patrick : okay . i 've kept you long enough . let you spend some time with the family . sam : actually , it 's just me and -- and danny for the night . patrick : what do you mean ? where 's alexis ? sam : um , she had a work emergency , and molly -- she 's with t.j . apparently he 's going through something . patrick : you guys are n't spending thanksgiving alone , are you ? sam : no . it 's fine . nikolas is throwing something with britt . i 'm sure they 'll make room for us . but that means that i will have to spend the evening with obrecht . [ chuckles ] patrick : or you could come and spend it with me . sam : you are so sweet . patrick : is that a `` yes `` ? sam : we ca n't impose on you like that . patrick : you would n't be imposing on me . sam : patrick ... patrick : seriously . you 'd be imposing on elizabeth . sam : wait , what ? patrick : [ chuckles ] emma and i are going to elizabeth 's for thanksgiving dinner , and i 'm sure she would n't mind at all if you and danny came along . sam : all right . are you -- are you feeling okay ? patrick : yes . why ? sam : well , because you just -- that 's the worst idea i 've ever heard ! patrick : why would you say that ? sam : first of all , i 'm sure she has a lot of company , so i think adding danny and i would be a little too much , especially now that she has this jake doe living with her . elizabeth : what do you mean you ca n't accept it ? is the outfit just not you ? 'cause i really debated on whether to get you jeans or khakis . jason : i would n't know what 's me or not , okay ? and i really appreciate you going shopping for me . elizabeth : is it too much ? jason : you 've already gone above and beyond helping me get stronger and -- elizabeth : it 's my job . jason : no , no . you 're giving me a roof overhead . head . i ca n't have you buying me clothes , too . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] it 's a shirt and a pair of pants . i did n't buy you a new wardrobe . besides , are we supposed to do laundry every single day ? [ chuckles ] jason : the point is i need to get a job so i can pull my own weight . elizabeth : okay . great . yeah . you should -- you should really do that , but in the meantime , accept the gift . jason : [ chuckles ] a gift ? it 's not christmas . it 's not my birthday . elizabeth : who says ? neither one of us know when your birthday is , so why ca n't it be today ? jason : my birthday , huh ? elizabeth : i hope you 're okay with having pie instead of cake . jason : [ chuckles ] thank you . elizabeth : you 're welcome . jason : [ chuckles ] carly : what -- what 's this ? michael : i 'm taking back the name you stole from me . once i sign those , i 'll be officially michael quartermaine . carly : well , before you sign away who you are , you might want to get some of your facts straight . no one stole your name . the name michael corinthos was given to you by jason the day you were baptized . michael : do n't you bring jason into this . carly : you 're gon na hear this , michael . i had postpartum depression , and i could n't even touch you . and aj had already been threatening to take me to court so he could take you away from me , and i did n't know what to do . i was n't strong enough to fight for you . so i went to jason , and i begged him . i begged him to help me get away , and i left you with him . you did n't have a name . it was jason who chose to baptize you , and it was jason who named you michael corinthos after sonny . and then the quartermaines -- they showed up to the church , yelling and screaming like you belonged to them , like i 'd stolen silverware . michael : you lied about who my father was . carly : i did what i had to do . i did what i had to do to keep you , michael , because you were my son . you were my son . and so my best friend , the person i love -- loved and respected more than anything , gave you your name . michael corinthos was the first name you ever had . michael : that 's not my name anymore . just like sonny is not my father anymore . carly : anything you are is because of sonny . michael : we do n't have the same blood . carly : because of how you were raised , michael . michael : how i was raised ? carly : yes . michael : hmm . surrounded by bullets and bodyguards . carly : no . you had a wonderful childhood . michael : yeah . did i ? tho - those years i spent in a coma ... carly : do n't do this , michael . please do n't do this . michael : that -- that 's why you , uh , sent morgan to military school , is n't it ? you know , it 's too bad i missed that boat . i guess the damage to me was already done . carly : okay . go ahead . sign the papers . michael : i will . thank you . carly : it wo n't change who you are . michael : a quartermaine . carly : sonny corinthos ' son . i know you 're hurt , michael , and i know you 're angry . and you have every right to be . but one day , you 're gon na wake up , and you are gon na see this is one big mistake . michael : yeah ? which part ? sonny shot an unarmed man . carly : and he regretted it from the second it happened . michael : yeah , i 'm sure he did . carly : he did . he has been haunted with how he betrayed you because he 's never wanted to hurt you . he loves you so much , and i know , deep down , you love him . look at me , michael ! after everything that we all have been through , can you just throw it all away ? michael : do you honestly think you can talk me out of this ? carly : i do n't think i have to . because when push comes to shove , i do n't think that you can give up his name so easily . michael : want to bet ? sonny : i could be in pentonville for a long time , maybe even forever . i - i refuse to throw away everything that i worked so hard for . duke : you 've spent decades building up your territory . you 've held on to it longer than any other family could . sonny : and i 'm not gon na lose it now , especially to the jeromes . so i - i need my connections to find ava 's baby , and i need somebody calling the shots . that 's where you come in . you know , i ca n't -- i do n't -- i do n't want everything crashing down on me . duke : what about shawn ?

it 's not even your diagnosis that i take issue with or the surgery . everybody knows that if you 're the one that operates , the patient has the best chance of survival . patrick : oh , well , thank you . robin : it is your post - surgical protocol that i have an issue with . patrick : you know you 're adorable when you 're mad ? robin : that is disgusting when you talk to me that way , because you think that it gives you power over me , but it does n't . it just makes you immature . patrick : you 've really got me figured out , do n't you ? elizabeth : are you okay ? robin : if you 're looking for patrick , he 's in the bathroom . elizabeth : what is wrong ? robin : i do n't want to talk about it . elizabeth : okey - dokey . robin : you know what ? i 'm sorry . what do you see in him ? elizabeth : who , patrick ? robin : yeah . it 's not just because he 's hot , right , because you 're not that shallow ? elizabeth : i do n't know . there 's something sweet about him . robin : sweet ? elizabeth : oh , come on , you know everything he does to cover up that he 's a lonely , unhappy , little boy . and , away from this place , he 's a lot of fun . robin : i do n't believe you . patrick : hey , are we still on for tonight ? elizabeth : absolutely . can you pick me up at my grandmother 's ? patrick : i 'll be there at 7 : 00 . first race is at 7 : 30 . elizabeth : great , i 'll be ready . bye , robin . robin : bye . patrick : stock car races . i can get an extra ticket if you 'd like to go . robin : i 'd rather have a root canal , thank you . patrick : have you always been this repressed , dr. scorpio ? robin : watching a bunch of cars go around in a circle and then crash into each other does n't sound fun to me . and that does n't make me repressed , that just makes me a grown - up . patrick : you know , if i was n't so convinced you hate my guts , i 'd say you wished it was you going instead of elizabeth . robin : oh , yeah , busted . i live to be a notch on your bedpost . patrick : you live to be a notch on anyone 's bedpost . you really need to get laid , dr. scorpio . robin : excuse me , but this is n't appropriate conversation for a locker room . patrick : for a locker room ? okay , i 'm just saying , you need a guy that 's going to hold you tight and whisper sweet nothings to you . and you need that to happen soon , because if it does n't , you 're going to dry up and blow away . sleeping alone is highly overrated , dr. scorpio . robin : well , it 's none of your business . but i have a boyfriend , and he 's twice the man that you are . patrick : i doubt that . [ scene_break ] matt : what do you say we get you out of here ? robin : yes , sounds good . matt : what 's wrong ? you do n't have to be nervous . what ? robin : just sit down for a second . matt : uh - oh . robin : we have to talk . matt : okay . oh , is this about your hiv status , because i came prepared . robin : it 's not about condoms . matt : no , maxie told me . maxie told me . she said you were open about it , so -- robin : i am . matt : i just figured you 'd want to talk about it when you were ready . so , i 'm guessing this is ready . robin : so , you knew that i was hiv positive , and you still wanted to be with me ? wow . matt : yeah , i think you 're amazing . robin : you do ? matt : well , yeah . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : oh , my god , that guy could barely stand up . patrick : i know . could you imagine saying that to a cop ? `` no , i 've only had ten drinks . just help me cart my star , and i 'll be fine . `` this one 's yours . elizabeth : cameron is going to love that . i can not wait to take him to one of these one day . thank you . patrick : is that what it 's like having kids ? everything you do , you end up thinking about them ? elizabeth : pretty much . but i really try not to be one of those annoying mothers who only talks about how brilliant her kid is . patrick : oh , you 're not . i just -- i do n't know . i think i might be a little too selfish to give that much time and attention to anybody else . elizabeth : i do n't know . you 'd surprise yourself . patrick : well , i do n't have any illusions about myself , elizabeth . elizabeth : you know , we are all too selfish . but one day , you will find yourself with that baby in your arms , and everything will change . and life will never be the same . patrick : i like my life the way it is , especially with you in it . patrick : can you stay ? elizabeth : i already told my grandmother that she could sleep over , and so do you . [ scene_break ] patrick : go ahead and say it . robin : you did the best you could . patrick : yeah , tell that to the family . you know , a month ago i performed magic on that patient . i told her she was going to live a normal life . robin : you gave her time that she might not have had . patrick : no , i did n't -- i did n't listen to you when you suggested for a post- surgical protocol . robin : well , there are no guarantees . the patient still might have developed an aneurysm . patrick : yeah , but we might have found it . robin : well , maybe you need to accept that like the rest of us , you 're not perfect . patrick : i do n't make mistakes . robin : what happened in your life to make you like this ? who told you that you could n't be human ? you did everything you could . patrick : and it was n't enough . robin : you know what ? i 'll tell the family . patrick : no , thank you , but i 'll tell them . robin : i have honestly never seen patrick like that before . it was -- i do n't know , almost -- matt : human ? robin : yeah , just vulnerable , you know ? and i kept thinking , where 's this guy most of the time ? you know , i could work with this guy . so , i guess the real question is who is patrick drake ? do you like scallions on your salad ? matt ? matt : uh , no , thank you . robin : so , anyway , i was thinking maybe , maybe we could try a little harder with your brother . reach out to him or something . what do you think ? [ scene_break ] patrick : the thing is i thought robin would have come down on me with both boots , but she was pretty gracious about it actually . elizabeth : you know robin is not as awful as you think . patrick : yeah , she actually backed me up , which i thought was very decent . maybe i 've been too hard on her . hey has anybody seen the mendelsohn file ? epiphany : dr. scorpio has it . robin : i did n't steal your patient , dr. drake . it was in my in - box . patrick : no , i know . i put it there . i was actually looking for your opinion on it . epiphany : oh , i know hell just froze over . patrick : the patient had a spinal cord injury that caused partial paralysis . he also has guillain - barre syndrome . and since autoimmune syndromes are your specialty , i figured that you could give us the best course of action . robin : right , because it could reverse itself , so why do n't i just take it home and see what i can come up with ? patrick : yeah , that 'd be great , thank you . and let me know if there 's anything else you need from me . elizabeth : hey , robin , maxie called . she forgot her sweater . robin : oh , okay , i 'll drop it off on my way home . elizabeth : great , thanks . [ scene_break ] robin : oh , i am really sorry . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : we need to talk . patrick : okay , what 's going on ? elizabeth : patrick , i really like you . we have so much fun together . and i totally respect you . patrick : look , elizabeth , if this is the , `` where are we going next ? `` talk , i just do n't think i 'm ready . elizabeth : oh , god , you are so cute . but where we 're going is nowhere , because this does n't work for me . see , i love having fun as much as anyone , but i have a child . and i need to be with a man who loves the idea of being a father , because that 's where i 'm going to find my happiness . and the longer i stay with you , the longer i 'm just delaying the inevitable . patrick : is there another man ? elizabeth : god , i hope so . patrick : wow , i 'm getting dumped again . elizabeth : patrick , you have a lot of wonderful qualities . and i think that you 're going to want a family one day of your own . and when you do , you 're going to be amazing at it . but i do n't want to wait around , because really it 's not fair to either one of us . there 's someone out there for you . you know there is . [ scene_break ] robin : relationships suck . patrick : romance , highly overrated . robin : so , my guy , your brother , is in love with my cousin . patrick : oh , well , my girl , your friend , is in love with someone she does n't even know yet . robin : all right , you win . today you are the biggest loser . patrick : you want to dance ? oh , that 's right ; you would rather have a root canal . robin : actually , i was going to say sure , why not ? patrick : okay .

molly : mr. quartermaine was so nice . i remember the time that i interviewed him for my school project . kristina : mm . molly : he kept talking about his family , and how they 're more important than anything . it must have been so hard for him , to be so sick and then to find out that jason 's missing and possibly dead . kristina : do n't . do n't say that too loud . sam might hear you . she wo n't even consider the possibility that jason 's -- gone . lulu : he was so good during ceremony . not even a little peep . sam : yeah , he 's the strong silent type just like his dad . are n't you , champ ? [ chuckles ] lulu : dante and i are hoping to have a -- champ of our own sometime , so i should talk to you about -- sam : yes . maxie : you have to help me . oh , hey , sam . sorry -- hey . i really need you to get me out of here before spinelli tries to talk to me . lulu : okay . i 'm so sorry . maxie : sorry . sam : oh , please . it 's important . spinelli : maxie , i was hoping maybe we could talk . maxie : i 'm -- i 'm really sorry , damien . i do n't have time to talk to you right now . i have places to go . oh , and , um -- i would appreciate it if you did n't call me maximista . you do n't deserve to have a nickname for me anymore . lulu : i 'm so sorry . kristina : there 's our little nephew . molly : hi , danny . you look so handsome today . kristina : how are you doing ? sam : i 'm good . good . i just wish jason could have been here to say goodbye . i -- i took -- i took danny in to see edward , and edward reached up and he touched danny 's finger . molly : that 's so beautiful . kristina : mom had to leave to go into work , but she wants you and danny to come to dinner tonight . molly : yeah . please ? sam : yeah . molly : i have a couple books that i want to start reading to him . kristina : besides , it 's our duty as aunts to spoil him . [ chuckles ] sam : okay . i 'd love to . kristina : great . we 'll text you with the time . sam : okay . kristina : okay . bye . bye . molly : i love you . sam : love you . say , `` bye . `` okay . i saw what maxie did . what was that about ? spinelli : we 're having a -- temporary -- sam : why ? spinelli : [ sighs ] it 's kind of your fault . [ chuckles ] molly : i feel so bad for sam . she 's refusing to accept that jason could be dead . kristina : everyone handles grief in their own way . molly : yeah , but that 's the thing , kristina . she is n't handling it . i mean , not that i blame her . she must be missing jason so much . [ rustling ] molly : kristina ? you ready ? kristina : you go ahead . i need a minute . molly : okay . kristina : excuse me . trey ? a.j . : how was the service ? skye : beautiful . sad . monica : i 'm so sorry you could n't attend . ned : it 's his own fault that he could n't honor grandfather . skye : okay , ned . we get it . a.j . 's under house arrest . ned : the judge was so sure he 'd jump bail that he would n't even let him go to a church . monica : because your mother manipulated him . ned : amazing . even when he 's wearing an ankle monitor , it 's still never junior 's fault . skye : what would you have done if you heard brook lynn was hurt ? would an ankle monitor have stopped you , ned ? ned : i would have sent somebody , and then i would have asked the police to take me to the hospital . a.j . : you know , why bother , skye ? i mean , ned 's a paragon . he never makes any mistakes . skye : a.j . was just trying to be a father to his son . michael : i 'm sorry . do you guys remember what we 're doing here ? we 're about to bury great - grandfather . look , if tracy can stop fighting , then so can the rest of us . starr : `` hated seeing you so sad at the funeral today . i know you 're already missing your granddad . thinking of you lots . love , starr . `` monica : i think we should give tracy some time alone . michael : yeah , you 're right . she 's grieving . monica : well , what she is is quiet , and god knows how long that will last , so let 's enjoy the peace . [ cell phone rings ] ned : are you okay ? minister : ms. quartermaine ? it 's time . tracy : i ca n't believe i have to say goodbye to my father . minister : the lord bless him and keep him . the lord make his face to shine upon him and be gracious unto him and give him peace . amen . a.j . : i was n't able to speak at my grandfather 's funeral . i 'd like to say a few words now . trey : kristina , what are you -- what are you doing here ? kristina : i was at edward quartermaine 's funeral . what are you doing here ? do you -- work here ? trey : the pastor , he lets me sleep in the basement in exchange for my excellent custodial services . kristina : so you 're living here , too ? trey : yeah , well , you know , maxie kicked me out of the apartment , which is fine , 'cause i really could n't afford to pay rent , so -- kristina : but -- but , trey , this is n't even an actual -- trey : no , no . this -- it 's -- it 's fine . i mean , it 's [ chuckles ] it 's fine . kristina : at least let me buy you lunch . trey : no , no . they feed me here , too . do n't worry about it . kristina : please . i 'm dying for a kelly 's burger and ca n't eat the whole thing myself . trey : [ chuckles ] yeah , you never could . kristina : and if you 're not with me , it 'll go to waste , and you really want that on your conscience while you 're seeking shelter in the house of the lord ? come on . sam : how did i cause tension between you and maxie ? spinelli : well , it 's because of you that i -- i met my girlfriend . sam : spinelli , you have a girlfriend ? spinelli : yeah . sam : what ? spinelli : her name is ellie . and she happens to be the lab assistant that assisted me when i was trying to establish the proper blood type for the infant that you thought was yours . sam : okay . so , i do n't see the problem . how is any of this my fault ? spinelli : no , no . it 's just that it was in my attempt to uncover the truth about danny that i first encountered ellie , and i liked her , so i asked her to join me sonny 's calamitous wedding , and she handed the chaos with remarkable poise . sam : well , that all sounds like really good news . spinelli : yeah . and we 've been together ever since . we share many of the same scientific and cultural interests . i never have to explain myself to her . we 've -- we 've grown very close in a short time . sam : that 's wonderful , spinelli . i think jason would be really happy for you . spinelli : yeah , they did meet briefly . sam : they ? wait . spinelli : i think he approved . sam : i do n't understand how maxie fits in with all this ? spinelli : right . well , she 's kept me at arm 's length now for over a year . daniel : [ squeals ] sam : [ laughs ] spinelli : squelching , basically , any romantic connections that we might have shared , and now recently she has confessed that she 's in love with me . maxie : i ca n't even look at spinelli . not after he dumped me for that pippi longstocking in a lab coat . oh , i just want to crawl into my bed and hide for a month . lulu : well , a month is a little excessive , but maybe a couple days curled up watching some old movies and eating ice cream might be just the thing . maxie : except ellie is my roommate , and she 's a kind , generous , caring person . she 'll probably check on me every five minutes . lulu : why do n't you lock your door ? maxie : because she will find a way to coax me out to have brownies and hot cocoa with her and spinelli . you know , you 'd think that spinelli would at least have the decency to sleep with her at his place . lulu : i thought you said that spinelli is basically living in his office ? maxie : why are you being logical when i need you to be supportive ? lulu : i 'm sorry ! look , if spinelli and ellie refuse to leave the apartment , then you need to get out and go do something and have some fun . maxie : i do n't have a job . i ca n't afford to have fun any more than i can afford to live on my own , so i 'm stuck with ellie as a roommate . but i wo n't waste one more day feeling miserable or heartbroken while i watch ellie and spinelli wallow in bliss . lulu : okay , well , they have a new relationship , and things could always change . maxie : could you please just help me out and tell me what i 'm supposed to do ? a.j . : i do n't think it 's any big surprise that i was a disappointment to grandfather . as his death changes all of us , my own death has changed me . and i promised myself that if i ever came back to my family , that i would become the man that i always should have been . i 'm gon na make you proud this time , grandfather . i just wish you were here to see it . molly : excuse me . starr ? starr : molly . you 're kristina 's sister , right ? molly : yeah . i saw you at the funeral . it was really nice of you to show up for michael . starr : of course . michael loved his great - granddad , so -- molly : yeah , he did . listen , so , i hate to bother you , but , since you 're on your computer anyway , would it be okay if i shared your table ? i mean , it 's kind of busy , so -- starr : no , no , no . of course . sit down . molly : thanks . starr : just , uh -- what are you working on ? molly : uh , just a paper for school . tracy : [ sniffles ] everywhere you go , america , sam : what else did she say ? spinelli : she told me that -- that i 'm her mac . sam : mac ? spinelli : by which she meant that , you know , i 'm not her stepfather , but she 's come to value my devotion . sam : okay . spinelli : and that she 's also realized that love is more than edge or danger or guns blazing . sam : well , maybe she 's realized what 's important now . spinelli : evidently , she 's made numerous attempts to inform me of these developments , but ellie was always around , and now that ellie 's moved in with maxie -- sam : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . maxie , the woman who just said that she loves you , is actually roommates with your girlfriend ? spinelli : yes . sam : [ laughing ] yes . spinelli : yeah , it 's complicated . and the other morning , after ellie left for work , maxie poured all this out to me , and so now i -- i wake up with ellie , knowing that maxie is mere feet away . ooh . and , you know , we run into each other in the kitchen , and she barely speaks a word to me . sam : well , you know that 's because you did n't choose her . spinelli : precisely . sam : okay , well , what do you think you would have done if you did n't have a girlfriend ? spinelli : [ sighs ] maxie : you 're the one who has her life together . you have a business that you love , a husband who adores you , so , clearly you 're doing something right with your life that i am failing to do . so , advise me . tell me what i should do . [ sighs ] lulu : okay . well -- this might sound drastic , but maybe you should get a job , and that way you can afford to kick ellie out . maxie : this is hopeless . i have no job , no life , no money , and no way to acquire any of those things . the only bright spot in my future is i can buy your baby 's clothes and accessories 'cause you and dante do n't plan on doing that , right ? so when does the baby get delivered , anyway ? lulu : actually , uh , it 's not happening . maxie : wait , you changed your mind about adoption ? lulu : no . it 's more like our mind was changed for us . i was afraid that the agency would reject us when they found out that our families are so -- maxie : unusual and sometimes criminal ? lulu : exactly . so , i lied on the application , and now we 've been blacklisted from ever adopting . maxie : wow . that sounds like something i would do . starr : molly , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to pry . molly : no , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to be rude . i totally overreacted . starr : no , seriously , we do n't even need to talk about it . i 'll just -- we can work on our own stuff . okay ? molly : okay . [ chuckles ] [ keyboard clacking ] molly : i just finished something . starr : what ? molly : i just finished a novel . um -- [ door opens ] molly : oh , no . it 's my sister . please do n't say anything . starr : she does n't know about your writing ? molly : no one does . it 's a secret . starr : okay . kristina : hey . starr : hi . kristina : i see you two have finally met . starr : we have met . trey , i have n't seen you since you got evicted . where 'd you end up ? trey : uh -- kristina : trey 's got a great new place . high ceilings , classic architecture . only downside is he has to share it with some other guys . trey : what she said . starr : i knew you would land on your feet . kristina : well , um , we 'll leave you two to your internet surfing and myface updates . [ chuckles ] trey : it was good seeing you , starr . starr : yeah . molly , you wrote a novel ? molly : yes . oh , i feel so much better now . just saying that out loud makes it real , you know ? starr : you know what would make it even more real ? if you let me read it . trey : `` high ceilings and classic architecture `` ? really ? kristina : did i lie ? trey , why did n't you call me ? trey : and say what ? `` hey , kristina . uh , i do n't know if you remember me . i 'm the guy that almost got you killed . oh , but that was after i tricked you into marry me on my father 's orders . so , anyway , um , just wondering if you had any rent - free housing available . what do you say ? `` kristina : i 'd say , `` after you tried to help my dad commit connie even though he hates you and she abandoned you at birth , i 'll see what i can do . `` trey : yeah , me helping your dad commit connie . that was a blazing success , was n't it ? connie 's still running free , your dad 's a mess , and my mother hates me even more than the day she left me in the drawer . kristina : you did the right thing . trey : well , there is that . kristina : it can not be fun sleeping in a church basement . trey : it 's temporary . kristina : that means you must have a plan . tell me , what are you gon na do next ? alice : ms. miller is here to read mr. q 's will . diane : thank you , alice . i would just like to extend my condolences to the entire family . tracy : you drew up daddy 's will ? diane : mr. quartermaine had a great deal of respect for my legal expertise . tracy : why not one of the lawyers from elq ? diane : there were concerns about objectivity . tracy : `` objectivity `` ? you 're a.j . 's lawyer . that is a blatant conflict of interest . diane : i drew up this will well before i was -- tracy : i want a different lawyer . monica : too bad . edward wanted ms . miller . she 's going to read the will . diane : thank you so much , monica . now that that 's settled . alice : okay , everyone , let 's gather ' round . have a seat . come on . tracy : well , if you 're gon na read the damn thing , read it . diane : `` i , edward louis quartermaine `` -- tracy : oh , please . skip the formalities . just get to the part where daddy 's last wishes for me and his many progenies . diane : [ clears throat ] `` to my living grandchildren `` -- tracy : grandchildren ? what about his children ? diane : i 'm just reading what it says here , tracy . tracy : oh , you know what ? you 're right . daddy always complained about my lack of patience , and even in death , he 's keeping me waiting . molly : you want to read my novel ? but , i mean , i only finished it this morning . starr : so ? you 're obviously excited about it , and you 've been alone with it the whole time you 've been writing it . molly : months . starr : why have n't you told anyone ? molly : i do n't know . i just -- i did n't want everyone asking how it was coming , whether they could read it . starr : oh , i did n't mean to be one of those people . molly : no , no , no . not you . actually , it 's easier to talk to you about it because you do n't know me . my family and my friends would just tease me about being a hopeless romantic . but -- [ sighs ] no , it 's too embarrassing . starr : we barely know each other . like you said , it would be easier , right ? molly : yeah , except michael 's really into you , which means you must be pretty great . michael 's the best , and if he can trust you -- maybe i should , too . starr : so , is that a yes ? trey : look , it is really generous of you to try to make this okay for me . but it just keeps getting worse . it looks like my dad might have been working with jerry jacks to poison the water supply . kristina : are you sure ? trey : i do n't know . i mean -- tracy quartermaine said that my father gave her a dose of the antiserum that he was supposed to take himself . and the cops say that the only way he could have even gotten that is from jerry jacks . kristina : but that does n't make sense . why would your dad give up his only chance of survival -- no . your dad had a thing for tracy q. ? and he saved her life ? trey : go figure . diane : `` to my living grandchildren `` -- according to my list , these are skye chandler quartermaine -- tracy : how does skye count ? she was n't alan 's biological child . diane : alan legally adopted skye , so she counts . skye chandler quartermaine , jason morgan -- tracy : jason morgan is dead . diane : jason is missing . his body has not been recovered . tracy : oh , and so you 're gon na pretend that he still walks among us so that his widow can inherit what 's rightfully mine . diane : [ sighs ] spinelli : after the threat of jerry jacks had passed , i went to visit maxie to assure myself that she was all right . and she asked me whether or not we were still friends , and i told her that -- my feelings for her ran too deep to accept a platonic arrangement . sam : mm . spinelli : but the only way to end my torment was to dissolve our relationship altogether . sam : good for you , spinelli . really . i mean , she 's been stringing you along for years . spinelli : classic maxie , right ? to reverse her position at the exact moment that i give up my infatuation with her . and then she finds out i 'm dating someone else and she wants me all the more . sam : okay , okay . but i -- i still think you 're avoiding the question . i mean , would you -- do you want to be with maxie ? spinelli : well , the question is moot . i am with ellie . sam : [ sighs ] spinelli : and now i plan to proceed apace with investigating what happened to jason . so anything new from mcbain ? sam : no . i mean , john wo n't say the words , but -- he thinks jason 's dead . you know , sitting here through edward 's funeral , i wonder if i could do this , spinelli . i wonder if i could put up a picture of jason and -- listen to people say goodbye . spinelli : could you ? sam : no . because i do n't think jason is dead . do you ? lulu : so now that adoption is off , we decided to try surrogacy . maxie : right . i remember reading about that in those pamphlets that the doctor gave you . it 's convenient . no stretch marks , no weight gain , but pretty pricey . lulu : yeah , well , we did n't think that we could afford it , and then sonny offered to front us the money . maxie : jackpot ! wow , it must be so nice to have rich relatives , even if they are sometimes criminal . this is so exciting . oh , wow , okay . so , i hope the baby 's got dante 's coloring , but your bone structure or -- no , that sounds really perfect . i mean , it is gon na be yours and dante 's baby , so regardless , it 'll be super cute . lulu : unfortunately , it 's not that simple . maxie : can you please make it simple ? i really need something to distract me from spinelli , like , chop - chop . lulu : okay , i just would n't count it a baby any time soon . when dante and i went to new york to go visit his family for thanksgiving , we registered at this top - notch surrogacy agency , and we even were able to interview some potential surrogates . maxie : did you pick one ? lulu : no . i do n't think i ever will . monica : for heaven sakes , tracy , diane is not maneuvering anything so sam can have jason 's inheritance . tracy : you are so naive . diane : moving on . skye , jason , ned ashton . skye : what ? ned ashton ? it is n't even the same last name . tracy : go on ! diane : dillon quartermaine hornsby . any objections , speak now or forever hold your peace . right . `` to my living grandchildren , i bequeath `` -- michael : wait . what about a.j . ? diane : a.j . was not alive when edward drafted this will . michael : well , he 's obviously alive now . monica : edward did say `` living grandchildren . `` diane : you 're absolutely right , monica . a.j . is alive . again . so obviously the law applies to him . `` to my living grandchildren , i bequeath to each one of you , 12 % of my shares of elq . `` tracy : but that 's 60 % . diane : once again , arithmetic wins the day . now , if i may be allowed to continue . tracy : so , i 'm left with 40 % , they are the major shareholders . how did daddy do this to me ? diane : tracy , i have n't even finished reading the will yet . i 'm not even close . tracy : [ sighs ] yeah , you 're right . i 'm sure daddy has my best interest in mind . alice : ladies and gentlemen , family and guests , the caterer would like me to let you know that lunch is now served in the dining room . tracy : thank you , alice . diane , could you move it along , please ? we 're all feeling a bit peckish . diane : `` to my living great - grandchildren `` -- tracy : great - grandchildren ? ! seriously ? diane : maya ward . tracy : she counts ? monica : shut up , tracy . diane : lila rae alcazar . tracy : lila rae ? ! skye : shut up , tracy . diane : michael corinthos iii . tracy : michael ? there is no way that he counts . sonny is legally his father . sonny raised him . a.j . was never , ever a father to michael . molly : okay . [ chuckles ] starr : molly , what are you d -- i was just -- i was just getting to the part where hank was all aloof again after his camping trip with kristina . why would you take it away ? kristina : did i just hear my name ? molly : no . you did n't . kristina : what 's going on ? starr : i was helping molly with her biology project . kristina : really ? that 's like saying michael phelps needs help swimming . starr : i was -- i was a bio major , so i was just giving her my collegiate perspective on her genealogy project , which i loved , by the way . it 's brilliant . kristina : uh - huh . can i borrow your ketchup ? starr : oh . yeah , sure . just keep it . kristina : thanks . molly : oh , my god . how close was that ? thank you . starr : okay , molly , what i said about your biology project , i meant about your novel . i love it . kristina : so , after you 're done drowning those fries , what are you gon na do with the rest of your life ? trey : look , kristina , the only reason i even came to port charles was to make `` mob princess `` with you . that 's done . now my dad 's gone . i mean , i do n't even know what to do about trying to figure out what happened to his shop or our house in new orleans . i mean , i 'm out of options . kristina : you have a degree from yale . trey : yeah , in filmmaking . [ scoffs ] i mean , let 's be real . the employers of port charles are n't exactly clamoring for the next chris nolan . kristina : so , what are you saying ? are you leaving town ? spinelli : there 's no proof that jason 's alive . sam : there 's no proof that jason 's dead , either . spinelli : [ sighs ] sam : come on , spinelli . please just tell me the truth . do you think , after all this time , jason could be alive ? spinelli : sam , i want to believe that he is . i guess i just lack your unwavering faith . sam : how could you , of all people , not have faith ? you spent years of your life waiting for maxie to love you , hoping that she would . and she 's finally given you her heart . maxie : why are you and dante having such a hard time ? are there not a lot of surrogates out there ? lulu : surprisingly , there are a lot of women willing to do this . maxie : well , why do n't you just pick one ? lulu : i want to . but it 's just not that easy to find someone that i 'm comfortable with . maxie : lulu . you 're gon na keep to get the baby , but you have to let go of the surrogate at some point . lulu : okay , no , you do n't understand . i was meeting with these women , and they 're perfectly lovely people , but the interview process is so awkward . and knowing that one of them could be carrying my baby , i felt this weird need to try and impress them , and they were all nice , but i just did n't click with them . maxie : maybe it 's just a case of you 're trying too hard and you need to relax . lulu : [ sighs ] i read about how these surrogates are carrying babies for their sisters , and now i have never wanted sister more in my life . maxie : well , of course . you want to click with the person who 's gon na be carrying your child inside of them for nine months . y - you want it to be like this . like us . natural and easy . someone who gets you the way i do . aww . you need another maxie . lulu : hmm . well , there 's only one of you . so , unfortunately , i have to settle for the next - best thing . diane : i can assure that even though michael was raised by sonny , he still counts . right . brook lynn ashton , daniel edward morgan . tracy : how much did jason pay you ? you are doing back flips to make sure sam and that baby inherit . diane : `` to my living great - grandchildren , i bequeath each of you 6 % of my shares of elq . `` tracy : that 's 30 % . i 'm left with 10 % . how could daddy do this to me ? spinelli : true , for years , i hoped that maxie would love me . but when she finally came around , it was too late . she 's too late . ellie : yes , i know . spinelli : ellie . ellie : i heard what you said , and i knew this would happen . i 'm too late . i wanted to be here for you , and i missed the funeral entirely . i 'm so sorry , damien . my seminar on bi - specific t - cell engagers just ended , and i tried everything , including exceeding the speed limit , hoping i could be here with you . spinelli : um -- samantha , this is -- this is ellie , whom i was speaking of . sam : hi . spinelli was saying that you helped find my baby . ellie : yeah , i was so honored to help in any way possible , even though damien had to work extra hard to persuade me to break the rules . but the nobility of his cause prevailed , and out the proverbial window they went . sam : [ chuckles ] he 's very determined . ellie : oh , this must be the infant in question . oh ! sam : say hi . ellie : what a beautiful baby he is ! i am so thrilled to meet both of you . you mean so much to damien . as did your husband , jason . so , are you -- are you in the mood for some lunch ? samantha , would you two care to join us ? sam : thank you , no . we 're -- we have some thinking to do . i think we 'll stay for a bit . ellie : nice to meet you . sam : you too . ellie : i guess it 's just you and me , then . spinelli : it seems so . sam : so , what do you think , little guy ? is spinelli right ? are we gon na have to do this for daddy some day ? ellie : i 'm so sorry , again , that i did n't make it in time for the funeral . spinelli : no , no . it 's fine . truth , i was n't even expecting you . you did n't know mr. quartermaine . i mostly came as a courtesy to jason . he would have wanted to be here , so i came in his place . ellie : i suspect this funeral made you miss your friend even more . spinelli : missing him is constant , but , yeah . the funeral made it more pronounced . ellie : well , i was so worried . the only way i could even concentrate on the seminar was knowing that maxie would be here . it just made me feel better knowing that you could lean on her in my absence . maxie : i 'm really sorry that you and dante are having such a hard time . lulu : yeah , he wants me to give up on this idea that i need to have a special bond with the surrogate . maxie : well , he 's right . you really should n't get attached to someone that you should n't see for the rest of your life . lulu : i ca n't help it . i keep thinking about what it 'll be like in the delivery room . i have this stranger who 's a pinch hitter for me and during this intimate and beautiful thing , and -- what ? she gives birth and she says goodbye and she goes home ? maxie : well , yeah . probably . lulu : but how will i know she wo n't want to keep the baby ? maxie : i 'm sure you guys would have some sort of contract that stipulates the baby is yours . lulu : but the point is , safeguards and contracts aside , i still wo n't know this woman . maxie : oh , my god , lulu . i just realized something . you 've made me forget about spinelli for an entire half an hour . lulu : happy to help . maxie : except i still do n't have a life or a job . i need some sort of project . something that makes me feel like i have purpose . you know , something that 's bigger than me and my broken heart . [ sighs ] lulu , i just had the best idea . trey : i have n't figured out what i 'm doing next . kristina : i know the feeling . i 'm in the same boat as you -- trying to figure out how to start the rest of my life . molly : you really like it ? starr : yes , i told you i love it . you have to e - mail me the rest of it . molly : no kidding ? starr : molly , your kristina is so independent and smart and cool , and hank is -- he 's so mysterious and hot . and what are you gon na do with this ? molly : what do you mean ? starr : are you gon na try to get it published ? molly : are you kidding ? what publisher would even read some jejune novel written by a high - school student . starr : for starters , my jejune father . diane : `` as for my remaining elq shares , i bequeath 5 % to my loyal daughter - in- law , monica . `` tracy : what ? ! i have to share my 10 % with her ? monica : i share my house with you . diane : `` and finally , i bequeath 5 % to the woman who has been most faithful to me . `` tracy : oh , daddy . diane : `` a woman [ clears throat ] whose loving attention to me made my days since lila 's death bearable , a woman i 've cherished all these years for her constancy , her steadfast support , her honesty , and her plain old - fashioned good sense -- alice gunderson . alice : what ? me ? ned : [ laughs ] alice : i would just rather have five more years with mr. `` q `` than that 5 % . tracy : daddy left me nothing ? nothing ? ned : he must have left you something . diane , what about his cash ? his material possessions ? tracy : you 're absolutely right . i forgot . that was just the shares . he was loaded . i 'm sure he left me everything else . diane : `` all of my cash holdings , my bonds , my portfolio , and all of my material possessions i leave to be divided equally . 50 % to habitat for humanity . `` tracy : 50 % to charity ? a.j . : it 's a worthy charity . monica : even you know that , tracy . diane : `` and the other 50 % to pbs . `` tracy : public broadcasting system ? diane : i guess mr. quartermaine preferred big bird to oscar the grouch . tracy : that 's it . you 've read the entire will . diane : i have . monica : well , then , i suggest we go and enjoy lunch in edward 's honor . shall we ? coming , tracy ? ned : mother , are you okay ? tracy : yes , dear . i 'm fine . why do n't you go in and have some lunch . i 'm sure you 're starving . ned : you sure ? tracy : yes . would you save me some red meat ? the bloodier , the better . i do n't believe this for a minute . diane : i can assure you that will is airtight . tracy : there has to be a mistake in this piece of trash document that you drew up . molly : why would your father want to read my novel ? starr : my father is todd manning , and he owns the sun , crimson , and a bunch of other companies , including a publishing house . i would love to show it to him . molly : but you have n't even finished it . starr : well , if it 's as good as the first 50 pages , then i will show it to my dad . you should be proud of it . what do you have to lose ? molly : well , he 's never gon na publish it , but just that you 're willing to do this for me , thank you , starr . really . thank you . starr : of course . trey : look , i 'm really glad you 're not mad at your parents anymore . kristina : what they did hurt so much at the time , but now that so much has happened , it 's funny how all that resentment and bitterness just faded . trey : yeah , i hurt you , too . kristina : at edward quartermaine 's funeral today , i got to thinking a lot about forgiveness . being angry all the time , holding a grudge , hanging on to all the pain -- it 's just so much work . it 's better just to let it go . trey : i 'm gon na take that as a good sign . tracy : not one mention of me . not one . how can that be ? diane : actually , there was one more thing . maxie : this idea is perfect . it 's kismet . it 's meant to be . it 's exactly what i need to get spinelli off my mind . lulu : you 're gon na get a job ? maxie : no ! lulu : you 're gon na move out of the apartment ? maxie : even better . if i do what i 'm thinking , spinelli will be the last thing that i 'm thinking about . lulu : what are you thinking about ? maxie : your surrogate ! lulu : our surrogate ? what does that mean ? maxie : it means , lulu , i will carry your baby for you . ellie : so , did you get to sit with maxie at the funeral . spinelli : no . no , no . we hardly spoke a word to each other . ellie : you know , she was uncharacteristically quiet this morning . she was close with mr. `` q `` ? obviously that 's why you guys have been so distracted . spinelli : yeah , that must -- that must be it . sam : do n't worry , daniel . i am not ready to give up on daddy yet . tracy : what 's this ? diane : oh , i have no idea . your father left explicit instructions that it be given to you . tracy : well , then it must be something wonderful .

[ scene_break ] robin : oh , mom . [ scene_break ] spinelli : thank you again for last night . i do n't know what i would 've done without you and ellie . sam : of course . ellie seems to be a natural . spinelli : which is an enormous surprise . ellie had no plans to have children . deep down , i thought she had some misgivings about caring for a child , but such is not the case . soon , she 'll be as proficient as you , right ? sam : well , i did n't really see myself as a maternal kind of person , but look at me -- i 'm doing pretty good . i 'm learning every day . i think you 're gon na learn . spinelli : right . sam : right , little cutie ? spinelli : if you had n't taken in my daughter and me , i do n't know where we 'd be . sam : are you kidding me ? i am so happy that you 're here . now that rafe 's gone , we have so much room . and besides , i think single parents should stick together . spinelli : [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's so unjust . jason 's dead , so there 's a reason that danny does n't have a father , but maxie 's alive , and it just does n't seem fair to leave our daughter without her mother 's love . sam : well , how long does maxie have to stay away ? spinelli : she 's not allowed any contact until the judge revisits the case in six months . i mean , it 's killing ellie and me , but it has to be unimaginably worse for maxie . [ scene_break ] ellie : maxie , rest assured the baby 's being well cared for . um , she ate , and , uh -- and she slept ... a little . samantha 's been a wonderful mentor . and she 's tutoring us in all aspects of infant care . oh , and , um ... and young daniel ? he 's -- he 's thrilled to have the opportunity to socialize with another child . i mean , the baby coos whenever he 's near her . maxie : sounds like one big happy family .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : of course , you 're thinking about robin . i 'm thinking about robin . you 're getting married today . it 's a big step . it says you 're moving on . patrick : it 's more than that . elizabeth : what do you mean ? patrick : ava jerome came to see me today . elizabeth : what ? what did she want ? patrick : she said that she was here on behalf of her good friend carlos . elizabeth : carlos ? sabrina 's ex , carlos ? he recruited ava to come make trouble for the two of you ? patrick : to be honest , i 'm not sure what to make of it , but ... he told her something about robin . elizabeth : what ? patrick : that he 'd seen her in the lab . [ scene_break ] anna : i knew you were alive . i knew it . i heard your voice on those audio logs in the lab . and then i saw your writing , and -- and luke said that he 'd seen you , but i could n't trust it until right now . robin : all i kept doing was concentrating on what was right in front of me , because every time i thought about it , it hurt too much thinking about ... how much i missed you , mom , and i thought i 'd never see you again . anna : i 'm right here . robin : i was really scared . anna : i know . i 'm here , darling . i 'm here . oh , god . i got you back . wow . i got you back . robin : i 'm here . anna : i promise you , i will never lose you again . [ both laugh ] [ scene_break ] britt : saying you 're my baby 's father does n't cost you anything . why are you using it as leverage to find out about patrick 's wife ? brad : because felix thinks i 'm this deadbeat dad , and i need to change that . britt : i thought everything was sunshine and unicorns between you and your girlfriend . i mean , did n't you just say that he asked you to be his date to go to patrick and sabrina 's wedding ? brad : yeah , he 's starting to come around . britt : okay . brad : but the fact that i could care less about this baby you keep telling everyone is mine is a problem , all right ? i need to redeem myself . so if patrick 's wife is still alive , tell me so felix 's best friend wo n't be humiliated ! britt : [ scoffs ] no , you mean so you can go to the wedding and play hero , right ? like you did when you went to that christening and told dante and lulu that their baby actually belonged to spinelli and maxie . [ scene_break ] maxie : it 's just so ironic . you -- you never wanted children . and i know the reasons were , um ... overpopulation and resources , but ... you did n't want to be a mother , and now you are one to my daughter . ellie : no , maxie , i 'm not her mother . i 'm just trying to help damian out for a little while . maxie : for six months . half of a year . suddenly , that seems like forever . let 's face it . i mean , it probably is . what 's supposed to change in six months ? somehow , i 'm just supposed to suddenly become a better person ? ellie : no . you are such a good person . maxie : no , ellie . i 'm not . i blackmailed you into keeping my secret , and you almost lost your relationship with spinelli . for what ? why was i so invested in this lie ? i mean , how could i have possibly thought it would be a good idea to give up my baby ? and now there is n't anything i can do to get her back . ellie : maxie , i am so sorry . i 'm so sorry . maxie : i , uh ... i think you should go . ellie : is there anything that i can do ? maxie : just ... just kiss my little girl for me . ellie : okay .

[ knock on door ] spinelli : rar ! oh . [ scene_break ] patrick : ava took it upon herself to come and see me . elizabeth : to tell you that carlos saw robin in the lab , the guy who 's only been here for a few weeks , who 's never even met robin ? patrick : she said that he recognized her from a photo . elizabeth : yeah , and i 'm sure he knows that she died in the lab . patrick , this is a sick way to torture you with an obvious lie to get you to postpone the wedding . patrick : i know . that 's what i thought at first , too . elizabeth : but what ? patrick : i ... when she was walking away , she said something that ... i ca n't shake . she said , `` if robin was alive , would n't you want to find out ? `` [ scene_break ] robin : i still ca n't believe it . you 're both here . robert : together again . anna : i love you both .

[ scene_break ] patrick : you do n't think i should go to the lab and check it out for myself ? elizabeth : check what out ? a story from julian jerome 's sister , a known liar ? patrick : i know . i barely know the woman , but ... elizabeth : you know that ava showed up at the quartermaine 's doorstep , lying about her daughter being a quartermaine just to get a piece of edward 's legacy . patrick : yeah , but that 's about money . why would she try and do this to me ? elizabeth : i do n't know . i do n't know what her connection is to carlos or what he 's promised her . patrick : well , she said it was about true love -- that carlos belongs with sabrina , and i belong with robin . elizabeth : you did . you guys were amazing together , and you were truly in love . but she 's gone . you know that . patrick : i just -- elizabeth : and carlos wants sabrina , so he 's made up this whole story . he 's lying and so is ava . patrick : i know , but where would the story about her being in the lab come from ? elizabeth : patrick , do n't do this . do n't undermine your happiness . nobody is questioning your love for robin . you honored her memory , and you grieved for her for a really long time , and now you 're moving on . i know you love sabrina , and you 're supposed to marry her in an hour . are you really gon na go chase robin 's ghost now ?

[ both laugh ] sabrina : oh . thank you , emma . felix : while we appreciate the effort , emma , we 're gon na have to make sure it works with the veil . emma : just make it work , felix . felix : yes , ma'am . emma : now all we need is something blue . felix : hmm . hey , psst ! any of those scanties you wearing under that gown blue ? sabrina : no . but i do have a turquoise necklace that carlos gave me . felix : [ gasps ] turquoise ! from your ex ? with that gown ? sabrina : okay . fine . look , we 'll just take our chances and go without the `` something blue . `` emma : we ca n't . maxie told her mother that if they did n't do all the somethings , something bad would happen . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] felicia : maxie , it 's us ! maxie : i already told you , i 'm not going to patrick and sabrina 's wedding . [ scene_break ] silas : wow . you look beautiful . sam : thank you . silas : you sure you want to be seen with me ? at this wedding ? i mean , what was it that dr. drake called me again ? sam : a jackass , arrogant ... there were other choice words . i do n't really care to remember them at the moment . you do n't make the best first impression , you know . silas : mm - hmm . thanks for giving me a second chance . sam : patrick is the one who talked me in to going on that first date with you . you can thank him . silas : mm . no . but to be fair , our first date was a disaster . sam : i think all of our dates have been a disaster . silas : what 's gon na happen this time ? sam : well ... [ door opens ] ellie : hi . sam : hi . ellie : wow . you two look so elegant . sam : thank you . um , we 're going to patrick 's wedding . are n't , uh -- why are n't you going ? are n't you friends with sabrina ? ellie : yeah , but for some reason , i did n't get my invitation . [ scene_break ] anna : so , after your father convinced me that you were out there somewhere -- mwah ! -- we decided that we would keep that to ourselves . we did n't want to tell anyone , just in case it did n't kind of pan out . robin : yeah , yeah , i understand . anna : so , patrick and emma are gon na be shocked , but it 's gon na be the happiest day of their life , i would think . robin : mom . anna : what ? robin : so you do n't know , then ? anna : do n't know what ? robin : i swiped this from the lab . anna : what is it ? robin : patrick is getting married ... today . [ scene_break ] brad : dante and lulu deserved to know that baby they were raising belonged to maxie and that weird p.i . okay , i had to prove i could do the right thing , and that 's what i 'm trying to do now ! britt : did it ever occur to you that maybe that 's exactly what i 'm trying to do , too ? that there are things that carry more weight than your desperate attempt to impress felix ? i ca n't talk about things -- not to you , not to anyone . actual matters of life and death , so shut up about robin ! i ca n't say anything about her . brad : i think you just told me everything i want to know . so it 's true . patrick 's wife is still alive . [ scene_break ] felicia : it would mean a lot to patrick if you were there . maxie : he 's marrying the woman who gave his life meaning after robin died . i doubt he 'll even notice if i show up . mac : oh , come on . he 'll miss you . we all will . maxie : if i could be happy for anyone , it would be patrick . he fell in love again . he 's moving on with his life . i think that 's great . if i were a strong enough person , i would show up and wish him well . but the entire time i would be there , i would just keep thinking about how i wish it could be , you know , that i -- i would be there with my little girl in some gorgeous baby dress , rocking her to keep her quiet . probably having to walk her out halfway through and finish watching the ceremony for the vestibule . i used to feel really sorry for parents with fussy kids and ... now all i want is to be one of them . [ sighs ] i ca n't stop thinking about how i 've messed this up and that i wish it was different . mac : and that 's exactly -- exactly -- why you should go to the ceremony . you know , so you stop focusing on what 's bad in your life and focus on what 's good , like your family , especially emma . felicia : emma 's the flower girl again . she 'll be expecting her stylish aunt maxie to be there to take pictures and to cheer her on . maxie : okay , well , i was n't planning on going , and i did n't buy anything , so i have nothing to wear . mac : oh , yes , you do . [ scene_break ] spinelli : do you find it strange that neither of us received invitations to the santiago / drake nuptials ? ellie : i guess we , uh , did n't make the cut . [ cell phone rings ] ellie : hello ? felix : hey , do you remember that sapphire and diamond semi - bezel - set bracelet that you wore when you arrived at the nurses ' ball ? ellie : oh , the one that you insisted i take off , because i was wearing an overabundance of blue ? felix : it 's the law of evening wear . you get fully dressed and you remove one piece of jewelry to avoid overkill . ellie : okay . thank you , felix . i will remember that . uh , is that why you called ? felix : i was hoping sabrina could borrow it . she needs something blue . ellie : oh , of course . felix : great . just bring it by the church . ellie : um , actually , i 'm not coming . i -- i did n't get an invitation . felix : you did n't invite ellie ? sabrina : what ? of course , i invited her . ellie , of course i invited you . i left an invitation for you and spinelli in the lab . ellie : oh . that 's funny . i - i never saw it . sabrina : what ? that 's weird . i wonder what happened to it . [ scene_break ] anna : patrick is marrying sabrina . oh , no . oh , god . i knew it was serious , but -- but , patrick -- he told me that he was having the hardest time getting over you . we talked about it . i guess after your father woke up from the coma , i was gone . i was trying to find you . so , they must have put this wedding together . it 's happened so fast . robin : it 's happening today , mom . anna : you can go . you can talk to patrick before the ceremony , all right ? i 'll get your father . robin : okay . wait , wait , mom . anna : what ? robin : where 's nikolas ? [ scene_break ] epiphany : nurse webber . i am surprised to see you vertical after your carrying on last night . [ laughs ] girlfriend , you can definitely throw one hell of a bachelor party . elizabeth : you were there ? epiphany : oh , so maybe it was n't so unforgettable , hmm ? but i do happen to have some very wonderful candids to jog our memory . elizabeth : oh , god , no , not pictures . no , please . [ gasps ] oh , no ! wait , go back . am i drinking out of a shoe ? epiphany : i could n't talk you out of it . elizabeth : no ! wait . whose shoe is that ? epiphany : all i know is it was n't mine . elizabeth : oh , please delete them . please ! epiphany : oh , no , no . not until after the wedding and we had a few laughs . but do n't worry about your job . i wo n't hold it against you . much . [ laughs ] so , where 's the groom ? where 's drake jr. ? [ scene_break ] patrick : what are you doing here ? i thought you were still on maternity leave . britt : yes . i - i am . i 'm just here to ... patrick : see brad ? finally taking an interest in your son , brad ? britt : um , are n't you supposed to be getting married , like , now ? what are you doing ? patrick : i 'm checking on something . britt : what ? patrick : brad ... can you look at that photo ? this is my late wife . have you ever seen her here ? [ scene_break ] anna : look , all i know is that nikolas was trying to free duke and obrecht , and -- robin : obrecht ? anna : yeah . faison had them tied up together . robin : so faison double - crossed obrecht . i love it . anna : yeah . anyway , nikolas was trying to free them , and faison came along , and he cracked him across the head with a pistol and took him with him . that 's all i know . robin : wait . but if luke and dad found faison , they did n't find nikolas with him ? anna : no , he was n't with him . robin : duke , dad , we have to find nikolas . he 's in trouble . robert : we know , baby . duke here told me . we 've been upstairs and had a look , but we ca n't find anything . robin : mom , nikolas was the first friendly face that i saw . he 's the one that found me . he 's the one that has protected me against faison this entire time . no one can leave until we 've found him . anna : all right , we will . we 'll find him . robert : look , i 'll have a quiet talk with faison and apply a little judicious pressure until his arm snaps and he tells me what he 's done with cassadine . anna : all right . duke : i 'd like to come with you and help . robert : sure . duke : oh . anna : oh , darling , are you all right ? [ scene_break ] felicia : sweetheart , i know you do n't feel like going to this wedding , but you have to take care of yourself . for your daughter 's sake . now come on . let 's go to the wedding . get a shower , get all dolled up , and let 's go to this wedding . there will be plenty of people there that love you very much , and i think it 'll make you feel a teensy bit better . mac : sometimes you got to fake it till you make it . come on , maxie . how about it ? [ scene_break ] sam : hey , guess what . i just got off the phone with my mother , and she said that she would be more than happy -- actually , thrilled -- to watch the baby if you guys wanted to come to the wedding . spinelli : i appreciate your mother 's generosity , but i could n't possibly tear myself away . silas : understood . shall we ? sam : yes , of course . well , if you change your mind ... ellie : oh , thank you . you have been so kind . sam : of course . it 's my pleasure . bye , cutie . ready ? silas : yeah . spinelli : i 'm content to stay , but you should go . ellie : no . no , no , no . i 'll stay . spinelli : but sabrina needs your lucky blue bracelet , and if something goes wrong with the wedding , it 'll be on your adorable red head . [ scene_break ] felix : so , ellie is bringing that bracelet to the church , so you 're all set . emma : you 're gon na get lucky , sabrina . felix : hoo - hoo - hoo ! yeah . sabrina : hey , emma , i think you 're gon na need a new bow , since you were so kind to lend me the ribbon on your head . would you go into my room and see if i have any ? i think there might be some on the dresser . emma : sure . sabrina : okay . felix : okay . spill . what 's wrong ? you 're pale . you 're tearing up . if you mess up this makeup ... sabrina : i 'm not gon na cry . i promise . felix : okay . well , what is it ? i know you miss your mom . sabrina : she would have been really happy for me . felix : oh , honey , i 'm sorry . what can i do to make it better ? sabrina : by hearing me out without thinking that i 'm losing it . felix : what is it ? sabrina : okay . well ... so , i 'm certain that i left an invitation for ellie and spinelli at the lab , but it disappeared . felix : are you thinking brad took it ? because that would n't make any sense . he 's going as my plus - one . sabrina : no , not brad . felix : then who ? sabrina : okay . do you remember how i told you that carlos swore that he saw robin in the lab ? felix : so her ghost stole the invitation ? sabrina : no , no , not -- not robin 's ghost . felix : wait . so you think robin , in the flesh , took it ? [ scene_break ] robin : i need to check you , make sure you do n't have a concussion , all right ? duke : well , nothing that a one - on - one with faison would n't cure . anna : well , you 're not going anywhere . duke : do you think i 'm gon na stay here and miss out on all the fun ? anna : someone needs to stay here with robin . robin : they do ? anna : yes . well , it does n't make any sense , us all traipsing around looking for faison . robert : your mother 's right . anna : i am ? oh , god , you so rarely admit that . robert : just leave this to the pros . you two sit here while we go off and find out whatever faison 's done with nikolas . robin : be careful , please . anna : yes . nothing 's gon na stop us from coming back to you . mwah ! you be careful . all right ? come on . duke : what is that ? robin : [ sighs ] it 's an invitation to patrick 's wedding . he 's getting married today . duke : well ... you have to call him . you have to call him and tell him that you 're alive . here -- lucky . i managed to reclaim this . well , go on . go on . call your husband . [ scene_break ] patrick : brad , have you ever seen this woman in here ? brad : uh , i did n't start working here until after your wife died . patrick : i 'm sorry . i mean recently . was there a woman in the lab , looked like her , in here , maybe ? yesterday ? britt : patrick , what are you doing ? what makes you think that robin is alive ? patrick : because somebody swore that they saw her in here , okay ? look , i know this is very ... it 's very unusual . i 'm just -- i 'm just trying to make sure . britt : is that really what you 're doing , patrick ? or are you trying to find a way out of getting married ? patrick : no , i 'm not . britt : 'cause if you 're having second thoughts , it 's not too late to call off the wedding . [ scene_break ] spinelli : all right , well , look , if you head home to change , you get that lucky blue bracelet for sabrina , you 'll make it there in plenty of time . ellie : are you sure ? spinelli : yeah , yeah , yeah . look , as much as i enjoy your company , she 's fairly tranquil , and i have every app on my smartphone for infants . and if all else fails , there 's always the internet . and i found , when it comes to nurturing , it 's less about knowledge and more about love . ellie : oh . well , then , in that case , you are an expert . spinelli : [ chuckles ] ellie : that one was from your mother . that one was from me . goodbye , exquisite one . and , hey . you 're pretty exquisite , too . spinelli : say bye - bye . [ scene_break ] epiphany : some jackass told drake jr. that his wife was alive and working in the lab , and he believed it ? elizabeth : no , i do n't think he necessarily believed it . he just felt the need to check it out . epiphany : well , that 's not possible . if there was even the remotest chance that robin was alive -- and trust me that there is n't -- why in the hell would she be working in the lab instead of here with her husband and child ? elizabeth : i know . epiphany : look , there 's nothing more that i would like than to see that spunky , smart doctor back here on earth with us . but they found her body . elizabeth : patrick just needs to find some peace of mind . epiphany : well , i hope that he finds somebody at that lab who will give him peace of mind . [ scene_break ] britt : patrick , if you want to call the wedding off , i 'm sure sabrina will understand . honestly , if she knew you were here , looking for your dead wife , she would realize you 're not ready , and she 'd probably call it off herself . patrick : britt , i should n't be having this conversation with you . britt : all right , i -- i understand . you do n't trust me , and you have every right not to listen to me , but ... if you are still stuck on robin , you should wait . you really should . [ scene_break ] robin : is it really that simple ? you think i can just ... call patrick ? duke : why not ? your mother and father are safe . there 's nobody who can force you to remain silent any longer . robin : you 're right . all i have to do is call . [ exhales deeply ] [ scene_break ] britt : you would n't be the first groom to take a step back and wait . it 's okay . you can do it . patrick : i 'm not having second thoughts . britt : you sure ? patrick : i should n't have come here . my fiancée 's waiting for me . and my wife is gone . brad : except ... i 'm not so sure she is . [ scene_break ] epiphany : all right , nurse webber , it 's time to get to the church . it would n't do for the best person to be late . someone might think that she was out drinking last night . [ cell phone rings ] elizabeth : wait . epiphany : unh - unh - unh , nope . elizabeth : patrick left his phone . epiphany : leave it , leave it ! patrick does n't have time to answer phone calls on his wedding day . [ scene_break ] sabrina : look , there have just been too many incidents involving robin , and i ca n't help but wonder if carlos is telling the truth . felix : sabrina maria domenica santiago ... [ speaking spanish ] come on , look at me . do you trust me ? sabrina : yeah , i do . felix : then listen to me . i can tell you with the utmost confidence that patrick 's dead wife did not steal ellie 's invitation to your wedding from the lab . [ scene_break ] patrick : hi . this is dr. patrick drake . i ca n't get to the phone . leave me a message . robin : uh , patrick , it 's -- it 's me . it 's -- it 's robin . you 're not hearing things . i 'm alive , and i 'm coming back . i 'm coming home to you and emma . what happened ? anna : we did n't find faison . robert : spencer and he are both gone . anna : and there 's no sign of nikolas , either .

[ knock on door ] anna : [ sighs ] yeah ? [ door opens ] hi , duke . duke : i 'm assuming you 're surprised to see me . i wanted you to know i 'd been released from pentonville . i 'm a free man , thanks to sonny . anna : yeah , i got word from scott baldwin . i heard all about the deal . sonny fell on his sword for you and carly . all right , keep your hands to yourselves . no yelling , and do n't give anything to the prisoner . you 've got an hour . carly : hey . sonny : hey . believe me , i 'm very happy to see you . i just do n't know what you 're doing here because it 's -- it is thanksgiving , you know ? carly : i know . i did n't want you to spend it alone . sam : michael ? hey , someone wanted to see you . michael : hey , danny . happy thanksgiving , big guy . hey . oh . he 's looking more like jason every day . [ doorbell rings ] jason : uh , elizabeth ? um ... helena : happy thanksgiving . alexis : oh , my god . oh , my god , luke . alexis : oh , luke . luke : what ? natasha ? alexis : that 's me . luke : oh , god , i 've been waiting so long , hoping someone would come . alexis : okay , well , i 'm here now , so can you sit up ? i 'll help you . luke : yeah . [ groans ] alexis : there we go . okay , that 's better , huh ? luke : can you get me out of this thing ? alexis : of course i can . okay . when i saw helena in here , and you were just lying there , i thought it was too late . luke : [ sighs ] no . it nearly was , but you saved me , natasha . you saved me . anna : it was quite a noble gesture on sonny 's part . i honestly did n't think that he had it in him . duke : oh , then you underestimate him . sonny corinthos is a man of honor . anna : oh , come on . duke : you may not approve of the code that he follows , but he conducts himself accordingly . anna : yeah , i do n't know . perhaps he was just trying to take responsibility for all the people that he dragged into this mess . duke : well , sonny 's always loyal to the people that he cares about . anna : maybe he just felt guilty , you know ? whatever the reason , i do n't care . it 's -- it 's -- i 'm glad that he did this for you . it does n't change anything between us , though . i mean , it does n't change what you did . duke : what about what you did ? anna : oh . duke : when i picked up my belongings as i was leaving pentonville , i had a very long message on my telephone from liesl obrecht , telling me about what you did to faison . of course , i just assumed it was more of her crazy ramblings , but here i see faison 's file on your desk , so it makes me wonder ... is she telling the truth ? did you do that to faison ? spencer : anna devane happens to be the grandmother of the love of my life , so you should n't say anything bad about her . dr. obrecht : well , then she should n't take the law into her own hands . shall we ? spencer : we shall . we have guests -- the love of beetlejuice 's life . britt : hello , mother . dr. obrecht : britta . prince . nikolas : hello . spencer : this is your mother ? britt : yes . nikolas : remember i told you at the engagement party ? britt : [ chuckles ] spencer : ah , the engagement party -- the night i heard luke spencer plotting against uncle sonny . sonny : well , you know , i 'm not -- i 'm not alone . i got a cellblock full of friends . we hang out . we play cards . we watch tv and do things , you know ? [ chuckles ] carly : i appreciate that you 're trying to protect me , but you should know by now you do n't have to do that . how are you really doing in here ? i know it 's not easy , you know , with your issues . sonny : you do n't have to worry . i got the medication . the claustrophobia is kind of -- i deal with it . carly : that 's good to know , but you 're not telling me everything . sonny : well , i 'm getting used to the daily routine . the prisoners and guards -- they do n't , uh -- they do n't really mess with me , which tells me that my name still holds some weight . but it 's all a cakewalk compared to losing michael . sam : i heard about sonny and aj , and i just -- i know how hard this must be for you . michael : yeah . i 'm just , uh -- i 'm just glad aj 's real killer has been caught . sam : yeah , i know . like i -- like i said , i know how hard this must be , and i 'm just -- i 'm so sorry . michael : yeah , well , i 'll get through it . sam : yeah , you just know that i 'm always here for you , okay ? michael : thanks , and , uh , thanks for stopping by . it 's good to see you and danny . i 'm sorry i have n't been around . sam : are you kidding me ? do n't -- do n't be sorry . we completely understand what you 're going through , so do n't worry about it . michael : i did n't know most of it . [ sighs ] um , i hope you and danny know , uh , you 're more than welcome to stay for dinner . sam : [ chuckles ] dinner at the quartermaines ' ? i do n't -- i do n't think so . [ chuckles ] michael : fair enough . sam : actually , you know what ? i would take you up on the offer , but patrick invited me over to elizabeth 's for thanksgiving , so i 'm gon na spend thanksgiving with elizabeth and jake . michael : jake ? was he the one from the hospital ? he had tbi and memory loss ? sam : yeah . you know him ? michael : yeah . yeah , no , we talked at the hospital the night of the wedding that -- that was n't . um , he seemed like a pretty decent guy . sam : you think so ? michael : yeah , we , uh -- we talked a little . i told him that i recovered from a brain injury , and , you know , i thought he could , too . helena : is there a problem ? jason : sorry . uh , no . i - i do n't live here . i 've just been staying here for a couple of days . i 'm jake . helena : oh , hello , jake . jason : right this way . and you are ... ? helena : oh . [ chuckles ] i 'm an old friend of the family . so , where are elizabeth and those sweet , sweet boys ? jason : oh , elizabeth is in the kitchen getting dinner ready . helena : ah . jason : i 'll let her know that you are here . helena : oh , no , that 's all right . i 'm -- i 'm sure elizabeth is very busy . and in the meantime , you and i can get better acquainted . jason : would you like a drink or something ? helena : no , thank you . i 'm fine . well , tell me about yourself , jake . jason : you know , you look kind of familiar . helena : [ chuckles ] i just have one of those faces . jason : i do n't think so . maybe we 've met before . helena : would n't you recall ? jason : i 'm a bit memory - challenged at the moment . helena : that 's surprising . you -- you appear to be the picture of health . jason : what did you say your name was , again ? helena : [ chuckles ] i did n't . jason : [ chuckles ] you know , i 'm gon na get elizabeth . helena : well , no , there 's no need . jason : hey . elizabeth : everything okay ? jason : well , um , i 'm not sure , actually . one of your guests is here . elizabeth : really ? who ? jason : she would n't tell me . she says she 's an old friend of the family . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jason : i -- she 's right in there . luke : helena was here . but i thought she was a hallucination . alexis : [ grunts ] it 's all too real , i 'm afraid . luke : yeah , so was the dagger she had at my throat . [ sighs ] i must have been asleep a long time from the injection they gave me . hey , take it easy . i 'm a fragile flower . alexis : i 'm sorry . it 's like they 've welded this together . i can not believe how tight these straps are . luke : yeah , i got out of the last straitjacket . that 's why they gave me a tighter fit and a bigger dose . alexis : so , helena ? luke : well , i managed to convince her not to kill me because i told her i was still valuable to that maniac -- whoever he is -- who 's living my life . anna : what obrecht is accusing me of is true . i left faison in that hole to rot , and he deserved it for what he did to robin and , for god 's sake , what he did to you -- keeping you prisoner and basically taking your life out from under you . duke : i do n't have to be reminded of what faison did to me . and i 'm not questioning that he deserved the harshest of punishments . what i 'm questioning are your methods . anna : he had to be stopped , duke . duke : yes , but you did n't trust the system to stop him . your job is to uphold the law , and yet you could n't stop faison from committing his crimes and make sure he did n't hurt other people . you see , it 's the same way i did n't trust that the system could mete out justice to julian jerome . that 's why i went to work for sonny . sonny : have you seen michael ? have you talked to him ? carly : yeah , actually , i went to see him this morning , and he threw me out of the house . sonny : what do you mean he threw you out of the house ? carly : i - i mean , um , the apartment . he threw me out of the apartment . sonny : no , you meant the house . what are you -- what house ? carly : the quartermaines ' . sonny : well , i mean , it makes sense that he 's -- you know , it 's the holidays . he wants to go over there and wants to be surrounded by -- you know , around family that -- that he does n't hate at the moment . carly : he 's not visiting . he moved in . sam : obrecht insisted on discharging jake even though he was n't close to being ready to be released , and , i mean , the guy still does n't even know his real name , and then elizabeth takes him in to her home . michael : [ sighs ] it 's pretty generous . i 'm glad he has a place to go . sam : you do n't think it 's a little odd , though ? michael : well , i 'm pretty sure neither one of them sees this as a permanent arrangement , so , i mean , hopefully , jake regains his memory and goes back to the life and the people he belongs to . sam : you 're right . [ sighs ] i feel terrible for passing judgment right now . it 's -- you know what ? that 's not why i came here . i came here because i wanted danny to wish monica a happy thanksgiving , and that 's what we 're gon na do . come on , danny . michael : yeah , i know grandmother would love to see the both of you . last i checked , she was in the kitchen . sam : [ chuckling ] oh , no . are you kidding me ? that 's scary . michael : yeah , i know . sam : take it easy , michael . michael : thanks . larry : it 's getting a bit chilly out . michael : i did n't know you were out there . larry : well , i was hoping the fresh air would cure my residual hangover , but i decided that a hair of the dog is the better bet . oh , was that patrick drake 's wife i just saw leave ? michael : what are you talking about ? what ? sam ? that 's -- she 's not patrick 's wife . larry : oh , really ? my mistake . dr. obrecht : i brought spaetzle . spencer : what 's spaetzle ? dr. obrecht : it 's a delicious noodle dish . take it to the kitchen . tell your cook to heat it at 350 degrees . oh , and here 's my coat . spencer : [ grunts ] we have people for that . nikolas : spencer , take the coat into the living room and the spaetzle into the kitchen . spencer : ugh , fine . dr. obrecht : well ? britt : well , what ? dr. obrecht : have you spoken with agent sloane ? has he told you what he 's doing to find your father ? britt : mother , it has n't been that long . dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] this is not right . while we 're in here enjoying a warm and lovely meal surrounded by family , your father is out there somewhere , hungry , cold , and alone . britt : mother , just calm down . have a drink . it 's a holiday . anna : i do n't accept your argument . i -- my actions are n't remotely comparable to yours . duke : based on what criteria ? anna : well , you giving sonny an alibi had nothing to do with bringing julian to justice and everything to do with allowing sonny to get away with murder . you lied to my face to protect your boss . duke : and you have lied to me ... on a daily basis . yes , sonny and i kept a secret from you , but you and robert -- you kept a secret from me . now , i may have lied to you , but that was in the capacity you as a commissioner of police . that was about your job . you simply -- you simply lied to the man you love . anna : oh , come on . i was protecting you . there was no reason for you to be involved . duke : oh , i see . only robert can be involved in the truth . anna : that 's not why i did n't tell you . duke : you lied to me on a daily basis for nearly a year . i consider that to be the height of hypocrisy . surely , you can see , if ever you were on a higher moral ground , you have lost it , lady ... anna : [ scoffs ] duke : ... if you were ever there in the first place . anna : can you honestly not see the difference between imprisoning faison and covering up a murder ? duke : oh , i can see the difference . yeah . we both did wrong things for right reasons , and now we both know the truth . so we 're on level ground . so , assuming that i can find it in my heart to forgive you ... anna : ohh . duke : ... can you forgive me ? sonny : michael moved in with the quartermaines ? carly : how 's that for irony ? i still remember the night that you showed up to take me and michael out of that house , and i swore he 'd never go back . and now he 's chosen it for himself . sonny : he 's going through a rough time . it makes sense that he 'd want to be surrounded by his family . carly : that 's not all of it , sonny . it 's not . sonny : what do you mean ? carly : i did n't want to tell you this today . it 's thanksgiving , you know ? i just -- i did n't come here for this . i - i 'm not gon na lie to you , and i do n't want you to hear it from somebody else . sonny : just say it , carly . carly : michael signed official papers right in front of me to legally change his name from michael corinthos iii to michael quartermaine . larry : well , i see you 're making it official . you were serious about changing your name . michael : yes , i was . larry : well , good show . i think that `` quartermaine `` has a certain cachet that `` corinthos `` just lacks . moving right along . how 's your beautiful bird ? michael : bird ? larry : your girlfriend . kiki , is n't it ? michael : yeah , kiki and i are through . larry : oh , i 'm terribly sorry , old man . i - i did n't realize . michael : well , how do you know about kiki , anyway ? larry : [ chuckling ] well , you know , there 's just -- tracy : ned you , do not need to push me bodily out of the kitchen . i was just trying to check on the turkey . ned : monica , alice , and cook 2 have everything under control . they do n't want you in there gumming up the works . the last thing we all need is for something to go wrong , and we all end up having pizza again . larry : heaven forbid . tracy : fine . i 'll stay out of the kitchen . ned : thank you . tracy : so , where 's your girlfriend ? i thought alexis was gon na grace us with her presence tonight . ned : alexis wo n't be joining us for dinner . she said she might try to make it for dessert , but , um , unfortunately , she had a previous engagement . luke : listen , natasha , i know this sounds crazy , but there 's somebody running around port charles wearing my face . alexis : yeah , it 's crazy , all right , and i heard all about it . julian told me . luke : julian jerome . i thought i smelled something foul . julian : always good to see you , too , spencer . alexis : julian said that you were here , and i did n't believe him , so i made him take me and show me , and it turns out he was telling the truth . luke : you knew i was here ? you knew about my double ? oh , i get it . you were in on it . nikolas : why do n't we all sit down ? britt : let 's have some crudités . dr. obrecht : this is n't right . while i admit i know little about this so- called turkey day , i 'm sure it has something more to do with than those fat- bellied birds . it does have something to do with family , does it not ? which means cesar should be here . nathan ! you 're here . how 's the search for nina going ? did you find her ? nathan : unfortunately , no . dr. obrecht : i 'm sorry to hear that , but i 'm so glad you 're here . you can try my world - famous spaetzle . nathan : sounds good . britt : i 'm glad you came . nathan : hey . thanks for inviting me . you , too , nikolas . nikolas : you 're welcome . enjoy these warm family moments , as few and far in between as they may be . nathan : well , part of me still thinks i should be on the job , but anna insisted i take a break . dr. obrecht : you should n't be taking orders from that woman . in fact , you should be arresting her . do you have any idea what she did to britta 's father ? helena : i would n't do that if i were you . jason : i do n't understand . she was right here . elizabeth : she did n't say who she was ? jason : just that she was a friend of the family . elizabeth : what did she look like ? jason : older woman , well - dressed . elizabeth : well , you 've met my gram . you do n't think -- jason : it was n't her . i 've never met this woman before , but she acted like she belonged here . there was something off about that woman . elizabeth : okay , you know what ? it 's all right if you 're not sure . you 're still recovering . it could have just been a memory resurfacing . jason : wait , are you implying that i imagined this person ? i did n't . i 'll prove it to you . she could n't have gotten far . hold it right there . hey . ooh . [ both chuckle ] luke : get me out of this thing . i am gon na bash your head against something hard and sharp ! he was in on this ? alexis : apparently . luke : do you have any idea what you 've done to me ? there 's somebody out there living my life . julian : look , spencer , the important thing is you 're getting out of here . luke : no , the important thing is i strangle you . alexis : all right , you know what ? i think he means it . you should go . luke : yes . i do mean it . julian : i 'm not leaving you alone here , alexis . alexis : you need to stop , okay ? i ca n't do this if you 're moving around . this is gon na be a lot easier without you . luke : yeah , run , jerome . run like a rat . julian : all right , fine . i 'll go out there and make sure you do n't have any trouble getting out of here . alexis : good idea . thank you . julian : look , spencer , for what it 's worth , it 's not something i wanted to do . he shot lucas . luke : what ? alexis : lucas is okay . julian : he threatened my family . he was gon na go after everyone i love . jason : hi . [ chuckles ] sam : it 's sam . i 'm sorry . did elizabeth not tell you i was coming ? jason : no , yeah , she did , and i knew who you were . i was expecting somebody else . elizabeth : hi . sam : hi ! elizabeth : happy thanksgiving . sam : happy thanksgiving . thank you so much for inviting us . patrick is actually in the car wrangling up the kids . i brought the wine . elizabeth : oh , thank you . please , come in . you did n't have to bring anything . sam : no . are you kidding ? of course , i did . elizabeth : here . we 'll need it , i 'm sure . sam : [ chuckles ] uh , how 's he doing ? elizabeth : he 's okay . he 's fine . he just thought he saw someone . carly : please say something . sonny : what am i supposed to say , carly ? i mean , it 's michael 's name , michael 's choice . i was very proud that he had my name , and , you know , i 've done some bad things , but i always felt like as long as my -- morgan and michael had my name , that was like the good part . carly : our kids are the best of us . sonny : i know michael 's not my blood , but he 's more than that . you know , he was my heart . now he hates me . [ sighs ] but i always thought that , as long as he had my name , i had comfort that , you know , i could always feel like he was my son . and now there 's nothing left in him that 's mine . i got no ties to michael . tracy : well , son of mine , it looks like you 're gon na have to do without female company for the moment . olivia : happy thanksgiving ! tracy : oh , i guess i talked too soon . olivia : oh , hi , honey . good to see you . mwah ! thank you so much for inviting me . i - i brought cannoli . [ chuckles ] ned : oh , well , thank you . completely unnecessary and absolutely appreciated . olivia : well , where is alexis ? ned : um , she wo n't be joining us for dinner . olivia : oh . well , what a shame . tracy : there 's my stepdaughter and my son - in - law . happy thanksgiving . you 're here almost on time for once . where 's rocco ? dante : he 's in the kitchen with alice . tracy : how come he gets to be in the kitchen ? ned : nice try , mother . lulu : speaking of family , any word from sam and patrick about that faison file ? tracy : i have n't told ned yet that we have proof that his father is in cahoots with jerry jacks . i have n't confronted ashton , either , and , no , i have n't heard from sam and patrick about anything . lulu : so , we have no idea what that file or the mask have to do with my father ? tracy : unfortunately not . i have no idea what the significance is . dante : and to complicate matters , uh , looks like faison is on the loose . faison : helena . what are you doing here ? helena : well , stopping you from making a crucial mistake , apparently . you ca n't go in there . you have a job to do . or have you forgotten ? faison : i forget nothing . helena : well , then , let 's concentrate on the task at hand . faison : okay . helena : instead of walking straight into the open arms of the police ... dr. obrecht : ... they 're thrown down a hole . nathan : okay , so , wait , so , she -- the commissioner had faison imprisoned in a cell under wyndemere ? britt : bizarre but true . nikolas : we saw the evidence . dr. obrecht : vigilante justice at its most barbaric . nathan : well , i - i respect anna , and if she did something that extreme , she must have had her reasons . anna : i can see , really , that you 're upset by my secrecy . but i still refuse to entertain the idea that my actions are comparable to yours . duke : oh , so you 're right . oh , you are always right , and i am wrong , and never the twain shall meet . is that it ? anna : when i put faison in that hole , i was protecting the people i love , including you , from a madman . now , when you gave sonny an alibi , you were protecting him from murder charges , and you can talk about all the loyalty and the honor and the noble gestures that you want , but at the end of the day , i honestly -- i am afraid that you are just in love with that life . duke : so ... you ca n't forgive me ? anna : it 's not about forgiving you , is it ? it 's about having a relationship with you . [ voice breaking ] i just do n't think i can do that anymore . duke : i accept your decision . there 's something you should know . before i left pentonville , i - i saw sonny . he asked me to run his business while he 's in prison . i accepted . anna : i take it you 're not referring to coffee imports . duke : i 'm under no obligation to make any disclosures , anna . i 'm only telling you out of simple courtesy . anna : oh , thank you for courtesy . duke : looks like we 're gon na be in a relationship ... whether you like it or not . larry : come on , there . a little generosity . it 's thanksgiving , for heaven 's sakes . dante : i do n't have any details , but there is an apb . out on faison . tracy : here , i thought this day could n't get worse . dante : well , look , there 's nothing we can do about faison or jerry or anybody else right now , and if you do n't mind , i just want to enjoy this day with my family . look , i 'll , uh -- i 'll be right back , okay ? lulu : okay . dante : happy thanksgiving . michael : happy thanksgiving . dante : how you doing , man ? you holding up okay , or what ? michael : [ sighs ] i 'm better , now that sonny 's in prison . dante : yeah , he 's , uh , paying for his crime . michael : it 's too bad carly managed to skate . she belongs in prison , too . carly : i 'm so sorry . i wish that there was something that i could say or do to make this better . sonny : there is . carly : okay , name it . sonny : you go home and be with your family . carly : you 're my family , too . i do n't want to leave you . sonny : i 'll be okay . enjoy the holiday . i want you to do that 'cause i ca n't . luke : [ groans ] thank you . i got to tell you , though , you 'd make a terrible magician 's assistant . alexis : all right , well , i 'm gon na work on that skill , and in the meantime , i 'm gon na take you right over to general hospital . luke : oh , no . no , no , no , no . i 've been locked up in here for god knows how many months . no more institutions . i need to be outside . alexis : i 'll take you outside , but then we 're gon na stop at the police station , and you 're gon na tell anna about this imposter -- whoever he is -- and he 's gon na be put away for everything that he did to you . faison : i do n't take orders from you , madam cassadine . in fact , what are you doing here ? why are you bothering me ? do n't you have better things at hand , like paying jason morgan a visit ? helena : oh , i already did , but that annoying little twit , elizabeth webber , got in the way . i had no choice . i had to cut the meeting short . faison : do n't tell me you did n't complete the task . well , there you see . maybe you 'd better deal with your own problems and leave me alone . helena : be careful , faison . we do n't want our plans going up in smoke . spencer : nathan ! my man ! nathan : what 's up , little man ? britt : [ chuckles ] spencer : so , how 's it going ? how 's maxie ? have you found out a way to get the two of you guys back together ? nathan : unfortunately , no . spencer : i feel you . i ca n't be with the woman i love , either . sam : [ chuckles ] jason : excuse me . emma : hi ! jason : there you go . sam : oh , hey ! i was wondering where you were . i thought you got lost . patrick : hey . hi . sam : hi . patrick : sorry . trying to convince danny to leave some of these toys in the car . jake , how you doing , man ? jason : hey , patrick . patrick : good to see you . did you meet my daughter , emma ? jason : hi . good to see you . patrick : and you know danny , right ? jason : yeah . patrick : hey . danny : [ giggles ] patrick : you want to say hi ? danny : you funny . patrick : you funny .

duke goes to see anna to tell her that he is free , thanks to sonny . he asks her if what he heard she did to faison is true . she defends her actions . he tells her that her methods were no better than him going to work for sonny to stop julian jerome . he says they both did wrong and lied about it , but now that both truths are out , he might find it in his heart to forgive her for lying to him for a year and wonders if she can do likewise . she says it is n't about forgiveness ; its about the feasibility of having a relationship and she does n't think she can do it anymore . he tells her that he respects her decision . he advises her that he is taking over sonny 's business while he is incarcerated , so they will be in a different kind of relationship .

[ scene_break ] alice : sorry to bother you , dr. q. , but -- um -- you have another visitor . it 's someone you probably do n't want to see . monica : who ? alice : it 's sonny corinthos , and i was going to throw him out , but he said it 's about jason . monica : no , alice , you send him in . alice : ok . sonny : thanks for agreeing to see me . monica : well , this saves me the trouble of calling you , because i do n't want you anywhere near that funeral either . sonny : first of all , i want to say i 'm sorry , and you have every right to be angry , and if you 're going to blame somebody , it makes sense to blame me . monica : well , that 's very magnanimous of you . sonny : and whether you believe me or not , i -- i really did love emily . monica : emily is dead because of you , sonny . sonny : if it 's my fault , then it ca n't be jason 's , right ? monica : oh , yes , but mostly i blame you , because you were responsible for destroying jason 's life , so he , in turn , could destroy his sister . sonny : monica , i know you hate me , but jason is your son . he 's walking around like he 's in a cloud . i think he needs to go to that funeral , and i think maybe you need it , too . monica : i need the jason that i had before you made him a criminal . i need the a.j . i had before you hounded him to death , and i need alan , whose heart you broke before his heart should ever have failed . i need michael , who you stole from me and my family . and i need emily , who you seduced and you left unprotected so one of your rivals could have her murdered . i hope you rot in hell for what you have done to me and my family . you are an evil , selfish man , sonny , and i really hope that one of your enemies tracks you down , before you destroy your family like you have destroyed mine ! now , get out .

[ scene_break ] kelly : i hate going to things like this . i never know what to say to the family . lainey : there are no right words . the best is to offer a memory or something the family may not have known about her . kelly : like the fact that emily could throw back tequila shots like it 's nobody 's business ? lainey : why not ? emily was n't perfect . just perfectly generous , so funny , and human . [ scene_break ] [ organ plays ] nikolas : so why are people so gracious about death ? why did edward thank me when it 's my fault emily 's dead ?

[ scene_break ] lucky : nikolas , you ca n't blame yourself for what happened . nikolas : she knew i was out of control . she wanted to cancel the ball , but i would n't listen . and she was there because of me . in all the years that i loved her , in the end , she died because of me . so , what , i 'm supposed to sit here and listen to everyone 's condolences ? what -- what 's the point ? what good are words if she 's dead ?

felicia : robert 's back , duke 's back , luke is nowhere to be found . i suppose that 's not a coincidence . anna : no . it is n't . felicia : you 've been married to two of them , and three of them , you 've been involved with . have you figured it out yet , which one you want ? anna : this sounds so vague . do i feel the same way to you ? faison : [ as duke ] of course you do . and my love for you is just the same . it has n't changed . has your love for me ? anna : something 's changed . i do n't know what it is . you feel different . johnny : hey , lavery . something wrong ? lulu : you ca n't be our surrogate . that 's not possible . maxie : why ? you said you wanted a bond with the woman who carries your child . you even said you wished you had a sister . well , you and i , we are like sisters . we fight and make up all the time , we support each other through everything , so why not me ? lulu : you 're not maternal . you could n't even take care of that fish . maxie : hey , that fish was sickly from the day that i got him , and there was nothing that anybody could do . this is totally different . lulu : yeah , this is a baby . maxie : yeah , but it 's not my baby . i do n't have to raise it or set guidelines -- nothing like that . i just have to carry him or her . lulu : for nine months . maxie : hello . that 's not exactly a lifetime commitment . i 've had sublets that last longer . it 's not a big deal . lulu : this is the biggest deal that will ever happen to me . maxie : i get that you having a baby is important . besides , you 're always reminding me how i owe you . lulu : i am never reminding you . maxie : well , you should be , because you 've done me like a million favors . maxie : i do n't have a job right now . i have the time . and i 'm not seeing anyone , thanks to spinelli choosing ellie over me , basically , because i 'm not good enough for him . lulu : that 's not remotely what he said . maxie : you even said that you wished you had another maxie . so why settle for a substitute when you have the original ? i 'm here , and i 'm willing , and i think i can help you have an awesome baby . admit that this is a brilliant idea . lulu : no , maxie , it is n't . mac : since i ca n't tell anna , i 'm guessing this involves duke . robert : you 're half right . mac : what does that mean ? robert : it involves the man who 's stolen duke lavery 's identity . mac : and who 's that ? robert : faison . anna : luke has gone to turkey to investigate duke , and he somehow got robert involved to , um ... felicia : to what ? anna : basically , badger me , which he is doing so well . so , he shows up at my suite at the metro , which is no longer my suite now , but anyway -- i 'll tell you about that later . so , he waltzes in as if he owns the place , and without so much as a `` how do you do ? `` , he just starts going right into interrogating me about duke because apparently luke has n't managed to find any incriminating evidence in turkey . felicia : well , that 's good news , though , is n't it ? anna : yeah , you would think so . but , see , now robert 's twisted that all around and said that this whole thing is a sort of cover story , and duke is somehow now guilty of ... what ? i 'm not entirely sure . felicia : well , anna , think about it . you were married to robert before and after duke . anna : mm - hmm . felicia : he 's gon na be jealous . anna : whose side are you on ? felicia : just because you had a little bit of a fight does n't mean that he does n't care -- anna : care about me . i know . he 's always telling me that , but he just has a very grating way of showing it . felicia : and duke , he 's easier to get along with , and i know how much he means to you . anna : look , you wo n't tell robert this , but , um ... i kind of ... i 'm a little bit confused about duke . i went ' round to his apartment , and things got a little bit intense . felicia : you slept with him ? anna : no . but it was definitely headed in that direction . felicia : well , it 's been a long time since you 've been with duke , but it 's not like you have n't been there with him before . anna : no , no . no , of course not . yeah , i mean , obviously , but ... it just did n't ... feel right , you know ? there was something about duke that 's ... there 's just something different . johnny : john zacchara , lulu 's business partner . faison : oh , of course , i , uh ... i just have n't had the chance to meet you . johnny : yeah , i 've been busy . faison : it 's a first - rate establishment , the haunted star . johnny : everything all right ? are you angry at something or someone ? faison : well , myself . [ chuckles ] i 've been trying to quit smoking . it 's such a [ scoffs ] filthy habit , but i -- i 'm failing miserably . please do n't tell anyone about this , especially not anna . johnny : none of my business . see , the club , that 's my baby . and if you 're gon na work for me , we got to have a little chat . blair : wait . you 're gon na `` relish every minute `` ? i 'm sorry . do i detect a little sarcasm from my sweet , lovely daughter ? starr : mom , how many times do i have to reassure you ? you want to marry tomás , and i fully support whatever you want . blair : now that sounds like one of those trick answers you use on parents . starr : and why would i need a trick answer ? blair : maybe because your father 's trying to turn you against me . starr : he may not be happy that you 're marrying tomás , but that does n't mean that -- blair : i knew it ! starr : you 're acting like it 's some big surprise . yes , dad is still in love with you . he probably always will be , and he wishes that you were marrying him . ned : pickle - lila ? tracy : yeah . seems i was mistaken . daddy did not cut me out of the will entirely . no stock , no money , no personal possessions -- a jar of mother 's relish . ned : okay , i 've heard the stories , of course . everyone seemed to be crazy about the stuff . tracy : yes , when the family had a reversal of fortune , thanks to monica , of course . mother decided to market her relish . it was such a fabulous success that she put us back in the black , and she rebuilt elq . i never cared for it , which daddy knew , so i guess giving me a jar was his last joke -- on me . ned : now , grandfather was a shrewd old bird . there must be something more to it . tracy : yeah . he wants me to open a hot - dog stand . a.j . : i was apologizing . see , the plan was to convince grandfather that i 'm not a complete screw - up and ... do something to prove that , uh ... well , prove that i can make him proud . obviously , i did n't have the time . and this whole thing with the stock -- i mean , i do n't deserve this . skye : oh , come on . the will clearly states every living grandchild gets 12 % . a.j . : grandfather did n't think i was alive . he never intended including me . skye : so you never got a chance to prove yourself to grandfather . come on . there 's still time to prove yourself to michael , to yourself . a.j . : i 'd like to . but i 'm gon na have to beat the charges that i 'm facing first . skye : well , diane miller 's representing you , right ? a.j . : yep . skye : the woman is a shark . a.j . : i sure hope you 're right . because between you and me , skye , i do n't want to go to prison . skye : what do you want ? i want to take the inheritance that grandfather gave me , and i want to do something good for the family , something my son can be proud of . skye : so what 's stopping you ? a.j . : tracy may not have gotten any shares , but she 's still the c.e.o . of elq . as long as she 's in power , i 'm not gon na get any traction , and she 's not gon na give up control until she 's in here . skye : what if she were forced to ? a.j . : if someone were in a position to leverage tracy out of elq , i 'd be interested in hearing about that . skye : well , awhile back , i came into some information about tracy . a.j . : do tell . skye : during her short marriage to gino soleito , she managed to get her hands on a substantial amount of his cash , which she then invested in elq . a.j . : wait , wait . are you telling me that tracy laundered mob money through elq ? why , that 's a felony . i mean , that 's a major s.e.c . violation . skye : is n't it , though ? a.j . : [ chuckles ] i mean , if grandfather knew that , he 'd be rolling over in his grave . skye : oh , grandfather knew about it because i told him . he needed to have his company protected in case there was an s.e.c . investigation . a.j . : wait a second . he did n't do anything about it ? he let her get away with it ? oh , i think grandfather thought tracy got exactly what she deserved ... when she was forced to marry a mobster named anthony zacchara . ned : mother , i know that you 're very disappointed . i mean , you and grandfather had your share of fights , but deep down , you loved each other . so it 's only natural for you to think that he would leave you something to acknowledge that bond . tracy : i did love him . and i 'm sure that there is some mystical message in this gift , but for the life of me , i have no idea what it is . ned : i 'm sorry . tracy : want to know the most frustrating part ? i miss him so damn much , i ca n't be mad at him . ned : on the bright side , he may not have bequeathed you any shares , but at least you still are c.e.o . tracy : maybe not for long . robert : i do n't believe that lavery is alive . what i believe is that he 's being impersonated by faison in order to get to anna . mac : i do n't suppose you have anything like proof , robert . robert : psychic visions ? mac : you 're psychic now ? robert : no , no , not me . but i ran into this rather charming young lady named olivia falconeri -- mac : robert , i know you . you 've never put faith in hocus - pocus . robert : humor me here . olivia turns up to the haunted star . she runs into lavery . she turns around , looks at him , but , for a moment , sees another man . mac : faison ? robert : yeah , but olivia did n't know that . she 's never met the guy . so she sits down with elizabeth and describes him , and elizabeth is able to draw this person . mac : you mean like a police sketch ? robert : yeah , she 's quite talented . i recognized this guy right away . now , if i 'm right ... and faison is impersonating duke , then anna 's in a lot of trouble . anna : it 's almost as if duke has been frozen in time , you know ? he 's still as charming as ever , and we danced the tango -- he did n't miss a step -- he has perfect recall of just about every single thing we ever went through -- perfect memory . but then , in other ways , he 's ... felicia : such as what ? anna : when duke kisses me , it just ... does n't feel the way i thought it would . faison : i assume that you 're satisfied with my work ? johnny : your work 's fine . i 'm more concerned with what does a guy like you , with your experience running your own nightclub , what are you doing mixing drinks and hustling for tips ? faison : i trust you know my story . johnny : mm - hmm . faison : i 've been incarcerated , to put it politely , for a couple of decades . by the time i got back , everything had changed . i 've taken a job until i can get on my feet . johnny : that 's all there is to it ? faison : what else would there be ? johnny : maybe you working at my bar has something to do with the person you once were . maxie : okay , you do n't think i 'm good enough to have your baby . lulu : of course i think that you 're good enough . and i think that it 's amazing that you would even offer , but this is a huge commitment . you 'd have to have hormone treatments , and if we 're lucky enough to have that work , then you might have morning sickness . you 'll definitely gain weight . those stretch marks that you said i 'd get to skip , they 'd be on you . maxie : okay . well , they 've come out with amazing skin - care products . lulu : you would gain around 30 to 50 pounds . you have a stroke if you gain 6 ounces . and the delivery -- i mean , you would cry when you would get a paper cut . maxie : oh , `` a , `` paper cuts are super - annoying , and , `` b , `` i was first assistant to the most germaphobic , ocd control freak in the history of fashion publishing . can you imagine how kate howard would have reacted if i handed her a portfolio or a latte smudged with my blood ? lulu : i just do n't think that you 're thinking about the whole thing . maxie : i can handle this , lulu , okay ? i can handle the weight gain and the stretch marks . although i 'm really hoping to minimize those . lulu : and what if you ca n't ? maxie : then i wear the stretch marks with pride . because i love you . and i need to do this . robert : i got to see a copy of that police report where faison was killed . mac : robert , i ca n't help you . i do n't have access . i 'm not on the force . robert : come on . you were police commissioner for longer than i was . i mean , half the force , they probably owe their life to you . i mean , look , if i go in there and start to pat around , it 'll be pure speculation . anna 's gon na find out about it . mac : sounds like anna does n't buy your theory . robert : i never really got to give her the whole theory . after i told her that i thought lavery was bogus , she nearly had a heart attack . mac : come on , robert . you and anna always fight . robert : that 's not quite true . we always have each other 's backs , and that 's what this is all about . look , if anna is playing into faison 's hands here , after -- mac : what this is all about , robert , with everything faison took from you , you want one last crack at him . robert : convince me he 's dead . get me that report . blair : what was that crack about your dad ? starr : mom , it 's -- it 's no secret that dad is still in love with you . he just proposed to you in june . blair : i ... thought your father was over that . starr : have you met dad ? blair : what , is he going on about how he 's gon na marry me or what ? starr : he may not be saying it , but i know that he feels it . blair : what does that mean ? has your father said something about us ? i mean , do n't get me wrong -- do n't misunderstand -- we 're not getting back together , but i just kind of feel like i need to know what he 's thinking . starr : mom , why are you so interested ? did you change your mind about marrying tomás ? tracy : i 'm grateful for your support , but as far as elq is concerned , i do not have enough votes to hold on as c.e.o . i could get thrown out by the first board meeting . ned : you know what ? i would n't worry about it . because the way grandfather doled out all the shares , i think it would be very hard for anyone to get a majority . tracy : unless they form an alliance and they block vote . ned : ah . and i wonder who would do that ? tracy : i 'm sure a.j . is plotting a takeover even as we speak . a.j . : so you 're telling me that this anthony zacchara blackmailed tracy into marrying him . skye : well , there 's absolutely no other reason tracy would ever marry anthony zacchara . i know he had the information because ... i gave it to him . a.j . : skye , that 's -- skye : i know . it was n't exactly my finest hour . a.j . : i was gon na say inspired . i mean , if there 's anyone on this planet who deserves to be blackmailed into marrying some lowlife , it 's tracy . skye : yeah , well , do n't gloat too much . the marriage only last a few months . zacchara was murdered . a.j . : was tracy arrested ? skye : of course , she was , but they did n't have enough proof or evidence , so they let her go . a.j . : well , do you know if the case is still open ? skye : it sure is . a.j . : let me ask you something -- do you think it 's in really bad taste that we 're plotting to take over the company this soon after grandfather was buried ? skye : are you kidding me ? i think you 'd be doing the family a favor if you toppled tracy . a.j . : skye , if i could get her out of elq , i know i could do something good for that company . skye : unfortunately , i no longer have the information i used against tracy . zacchara took it from me . and i have absolutely no idea what he did with it before he was murdered . johnny : i make it my business to know who works for me , so , yes , i know that the club you ran used to launder money . faison : all that 's a matter of public record . but it 's also a matter of public record i was completely legitimate by the time i left port charles . johnny : is anybody ever completely legit ? faison : you tell me . i know you 're the heir apparent to the zacchara crime family and also to the soleitos . johnny : how do you know so much about my background ? more importantly , why do you care ? [ telephone rings ] anna : commissioner devane . yeah . okay , i 'll be right there . got to go see the desk sergeant . felicia : right . well , we 're not finished with this conversation . anna : mm - hmm . ooh ! oh , sorry ! mac : i 'm sorry , anna . anna : my fault . what are you doing here ? that 's too funny . we were just talking about you . what are you doing with cesar faison 's file ? blair : i 'm not changing my mind , all right ? tomas and i have a really great relationship , and , um ... i 'm happy . starr : glad to hear it . blair : are you ? starr : me ? i 'm fine . blair : sweetheart , you know you can take to me if you want to . i know that you were really disappointed when that manager of yours betrayed you . starr : who ? johnny ? faison : it 's difficult to leave that life , especially when your own family 's involved . and it 's hard to resist the temptation to be drawn back in . johnny : not when you 've seen the down side . faison : no . there 's certainly the price to pay for everything . johnny : i 'm out of that life , onto a completely different one , and i run a clean business . i intend to keep it that way . faison : well , then we agree . johnny : you working tonight ? faison : i 'll be in later . i look forward to getting to know you better , johnny . you and i have a lot in common . johnny : we 'll see . anna : i thought you vowed never to work here again . mac : i do n't think i took it that far . anna : well , you are a civilian walking the halls of the police station with faison 's file . what 's up ? mac : uh ... well , you know , when jerry jacks put the pathogen in the water , i just wanted to do something to help , so i had a lot of clerks pull every file with a similar m.o . , and , um , faison was at the top of the list . anna : oh , yeah . certainly had an extensive bag of tricks , that 's for sure . mac : yeah , well , it 's been in my apartment all this time , and i was finally returning it . anna : okay . well , make sure the filing clerk buries that 'cause i 'd just as soon never see that file again . robert : lavery . faison : scorpio . [ scoffs ] anna told me you 'd returned . robert : she tell you why ? faison : well ... i assume spencer called in the cavalry . he could n't turn anna against me , so he thought you 'd come here and that you could , but clearly he was mistaken . robert : too soon to tell . faison : oh . all you 've succeeded in doing is making anna angry , pushing her closer to me . i should thank you . robert : i do n't worry too much about angry anna . we 've been beating up on each other for decades . but , you see , in the end , she always trusts me . that should make you feel a little threatened . faison : anna chose me , robert , not you . robert : so it would seem . i guess there can be no other love other than that which anna hath for duke lavery . maxie : i need a purpose , okay ? something more than doing kate howard -- excuse me -- connie falconeri 's bidding or investing my heart in a man who does n't even want me . lulu : that 's why i think that you are doing this . i have to do something important , lulu , like have a baby for my best friend so she and her husband can have the family they 've always deserved . lulu : i am so grateful that you would even offer to -- maxie : it 's perfect ! it settled . baby mommy , here we come ! lulu : maxie , you need to have a purpose , but this has to be about you , not me . maxie : but this is about both of us -- and dante , of course . lulu : your purpose should last more than nine months . maxie : it 's like building up a workout routine . we 'll start with nine months of purpose first . lulu : okay . say you give birth to this baby , could you really hand it over to me ? maxie : um , yes . i mean , i like kids and everything but only for five minutes at a time and usually when they 're sleeping or not spitting up . look , i 'll just carry it , and you raise it . it 'll be the perfect division of labor . lulu : what if it does n't even last that long ? what if after a few months , you realize you ca n't take it or you get an amazing job offer ? maxie : then i will tell them i have to wait until after i have my best friend 's baby to accept this hypothetical , amazing job offer . why are you doing this , lulu ? i 'm offering you exactly what you want . lulu : maxie , i 'm sorry , but you ca n't use my problem to solve yours . ned : let 's not forget that a.j . is a kidnapper , an attempted murderer . he 's facing some serious prison time . tracy : yeah , in a perfect world . but diane miller is mounting his defense , monica is footing the bill . he could get off , and if he does , he 's gon na make a beeline for elq . ned : he wo n't have the support . in the quartermaine family , the name `` a.j. `` is synonymous with `` screw - up . `` tracy : do not underestimate monica . she has been waiting a.j . 's entire life to get him into that c.e.o . chair . ned : they 'd have to convince a lot of people that a.j . is capable of running this company . i just do n't see that happening . a.j . : if i 'm gon na prove that i 'm an asset to the family and the company , i 'm gon na have to do it with my own shares . skye : really ? well , then why stop at 12 % , hmm ? why not 20 % , 50 % ? a.j . : come on . you heard the terms of the will . i 'm lucky to have even been included . skye : oh , false modesty is such a waste of time . we need to figure out how to get more stock behind you . tracy : i 'm sure that a.j . is already colluding with skye , never mind that neither skye nor lila rae have one ounce of quartermaine blood . together , they 're worth 18 % . a.j . : you and i together make 24 % . then we add lila rae , we 're up to 30 % . skye : your mother brings in another 5 % . a.j . : mm - hmm . so if we find another 16 % ... skye : then you 've got yourself a takeover . ned : skye would side with a.j . , and monica . but you would have dillon and me and brook lynn . tracy : that 's only 30 % . maybe i could win alice back or have luke work her for me . then i 'd have 35 % . a.j . : michael has another 6 % . skye : we 're at 41 % and counting . tracy : maya would side with me . we became , if not friends , friendly the last time luke tried to trick me into marrying him . ned : i do n't even want to know . okay . so , with maya 's 6 % , that would give you a total of 41 % . tracy : it 's still not enough for me to retain control . a.j . : but i 'd need over 50 % to oust tracy . skye : and assuming that ned brook lynn , dillon , maya , and alice 's shares would go to tracy ... a.j . : alice ? skye : oh , you have to understand the dynamic . alice is crazy about luke . all tracy has to do is use luke as an intermediary , and the shares are tracy 's , which only leaves ... tracy : sam . she 's got jason 's 12 % . and baby daniel . that 's another 6 % . a.j . : well , you can forget about sam or her son . she hates me for what i did to jason . tracy : sam would never back me . i blackmailed her back in the day , and i also never made it a secret what i thought of her husband . skye : well , there 's your challenge . if you really want to prove to the family that you want to help elq ... find a way to get to sam . ned : if you 're serious about retaining control of elq ... find a way to get to sam . skye : if you mean what you say , that you 've changed , that you have the company 's best interest at heart , why should n't you run elq ? i 'm not gon na do it . ned and dillon are n't gon na do it , which means , realistically , you have to step up . a.j . : oh , i would love to do that , but first , i have to beat the charges that i 'm facing , and that is a big `` if . `` skye : and when that time comes , and it will , you will have my full support . a.j . : thank you . tracy : i have no idea how i 'm gon na get sam on my side , but i am not giving in without a fight . ned : well , you have some time to work on sam . a.j . 's got his plate full with all these charges he 's facing . tracy : do n't count on it . he 's gon na leave his defense to his lawyer and go after elq . ned : well , if it comes to that ... you can count on me to rally the troops to your side . tracy : i 'm glad you 're here , ned . ned : i 'm just sorry it took grandfather 's death to bring me back . tracy : ned . ned : yeah ? tracy : i was a terrible mother . ned : only sometimes . you can be difficult . and ... you can be amazing . and dillon and i love you . tracy : it may not have seemed like it , but i really only wanted what was best for you and your brother . ned : we know that . tracy : and i thought daddy only wanted what was best for me , but no more . ned : you know what ? i think i understand why grandfather gave you this . maxie : you think i 'm making this about me . lulu : that 's not what -- maxie : no , you would rather pay a small fortune to some stranger , let someone you do n't even know , share in the most special thing you 're ever gon na do . lulu : i appreciate the offer . i really do . maxie : let 's be honest , lulu . you do n't think that i 'm capable of doing something truly unselfish -- putting your happiness and your baby ahead of what i want . lulu : i know how generous you are . maxie : forget it , okay ? i offered . you refused . i 'm moving on . i , uh , hope you find what you 're looking for . lulu : i hope you do , too , maxie . robert : you get it ? mac : i can save you some time . they never found faison 's remains , only boat wreckage . there 's a record of all the vessels on the water that night . they searched them all . no sign of faison . robert : yeah , i did n't think there would be . this is the way this guy works . i know faison . it 's all about mind games . it 's all about using robin 's death , lavery 's face . it all adds up . unfortunately , anna 's ... she 's grieving too hard to see it . mac : you 're grieving , too , robert . robert : you think because i could n't save my daughter , maybe i 'll save the mother , that all this danger is just in my mind ? mac : i think you 're the best at what you do , and if you say faison is posing as duke , i believe you . robert : thanks , bro . i can always trust you . and i appreciate the risk you took here . mac : keep it . i made a copy . uh , just destroy it when you 're done . robert : thank you . did you run into anna at the station ? mac : yeah , i , uh ... bumped into her with the file , but i covered . robert : how 'd she look ? mac : like she 's got a lot on her mind . maybe you got through to her after all . robert : [ scoffs ] yeah , it 's gon na take a lot of proof . but i think i know who can help me get it . anna : thank you so much for dinner 'cause if you had n't done that , i 'd have just had trail mix from the vending machine . felicia : yeah , well , some things never change . you used to live on vending- machine snacks , right ? anna : yeah . felicia : which is why you need your friends to save you from yourself . anna : and the next time , we just talk about you , all right ? not me . felicia : well , i 'm happy , and that 's all i want for you . and if duke 's the one ... although , is he so different that maybe you just do n't want him anymore ? anna : well , i would n't say that . maybe i just have to take things slowly . still , there is something that 's ... felicia : what ? [ knock on door ] felicia : speak of the devil . anna : hi . felicia : i was just leaving . she 's all yours . faison : hello , goodbye . felicia : goodbye . good luck . anna : yeah . faison : good luck with what ? anna : oh , just all this paperwork . you know , a lot of stuff to do . faison : when you 're overworked , you 're even lovelier . anna : [ chuckles ] faison : hmm ? anna : have you been smoking ? blair : i 'm kind of sorry things did n't work out . 'cause you know what ? i kind of liked johnny zacchara . i did . starr : yeah , so did i . still trying to figure out why he married connie when he supposedly loved carly . blair : well , he must have had his own reasons . starr : when you first married dad ... did you love him ? blair : what kind of question is that ? starr : i just want to know . blair : well , the first time i married your father , it was for money , and you know that , and i 'm not proud of that , but that 's just the way that it is , but ... the next time , when we -- when we really said our vows , well ... come on , sweetheart . you 've seen the picture . your dad was ... he was really different then . he had gone through so much , yet there was a part of him that really believed that he could still be loved and he could have something that would last forever . and , you know , everybody disapproved of us , but you know what ? we did n't give a damn . that night , afterwards , when he showered me with all those golden balloons , it was ... you know , you do n't get many perfect moments in a lifetime . and that one was absolutely perfect . we were perfect . starr : mom , then why are you going through with this ? why are you going to marry him ? blair : that was a long time ago . and people change . i do n't know if it was your dad , if it was me , but ... and that 's another thing about perfect moments , starr -- they just -- they do n't last . starr : i just want you to be happy . blair : i am happy . i 'm so happy , i could burst . and i 'm counting on you to be there on saturday , okay ? starr : i 'll be there . blair : okay . we 'll catch up then . i love you , beautiful . starr : i love you , too . dante : hello , my baby . lulu : hi . dante : what ? something wrong ? lulu : i just had a thing with maxie . dante : what kind of thing ? lulu : believe it or not , she offered to be our surrogate . dante : we talking about the same maxie here ? maxie : i will have a glass of water and a cob salad with no bacon , no eggs , no dressing -- no cheese , no croutons . maxie : actually , i 'll have a cob salad with the works and a glass of milk . skim ? maxie : whole . felicia : is that all for you ? maxie : yes , it is . felicia : you eat like a bird . what happened ? maxie : i can be different . she 'll see . felicia : seems to be a lot of that going around lately . lulu : i was totally shocked maxie offered to carry our baby . dante : you obviously told her no . lulu : of course . but what if we do n't find a surrogate ? dante : we 'll find one . we got a couple of appointments tomorrow . we 're gon na find someone who you feel is right , someone you click with . skye : club soda , please . johnny : skye quartermaine . you look good . skye : you too . much better than the last time i saw you . johnny : oh , you mean when you left me tied to the bedposts and went off to meet with anthony . skye : oh , to my genuine regret . which is why i 'm here . i 'd love to make it up to you . ned : here you are . tracy : [ laughs ] that 's what you meant when you said you knew why daddy wanted me to have the pickle - lila ? ned : it 's as good a reason as any . tracy : for you , maybe . ned : mmm . tracy : this is better than i remembered . ned : delicious . tracy : it is delicious . and you know what ? monica does n't get any , no matter how much she begs . ned : [ laughs ] tracy : cheers . ned : cheers . a.j . : skye 's right . i am a quartermaine , and i 'm starting to understand just what that means . grandfather , i promise -- i will be worthy of my inheritance . skye : there was more than one reason i tied you to that bedpost , and if you 'll allow me to demonstrate , we could just slip into one of the staterooms right now and just -- johnny : you 're good . you know that ? but i know what you 're up to . you gave anthony the goods on tracy . now you want the record back . skye : ca n't blame a girl for trying . johnny : you 're not getting anything out of me . skye : does that mean you have it ? johnny : guess you 'll never know . skye : [ sighs ] faison : oh , you caught me . i did just have a cigarette . anna : that 's weird . i do n't remember duke ever -- i mean , i do n't remember that you ever smoked . faison : i did never smoke . i started smoking in turkey . it was one of the few pleasures that we had as an inmate . it 's very bad for me , i know that . not good for my health . i 'm trying to quit . you 're not too disappointed , are you ? anna : no . no , i understand . faison : but ? anna : it 's just that this ... faison : what ? anna : do you have any more surprises for me ? faison : i certainly hope so . anna : you know what i mean . faison : things have changed , anna . that 's only normal . but the important things , they are still the same , and that is all that matters . robert : are you gon na be able to help me on this ? i see . so i guess i 'm gon na owe you , big - time . bye .

[ organ stops ] father coates : i stand before you with a heavy heart , to celebrate the life and mourn the passing of a remarkable young woman . emily quartermaine filled many roles in her too - short life -- beloved granddaughter , treasured daughter , cherished sister , and friend to so many . she was poised on the brink of a new journey with the man she loved . emily 's loss would have been devastating under any circumstances , but her life was brought to a brutal , sudden end . emily wo n't live to a ripe old age , or long enough to have children of her own , and we , the people who loved her , did n't have the luxury of preparation . emily is at peace now . and those she left behind must start the work of remembering , letting go , and moving on . father coates : emily 's death makes us question why do such terrible things happen to such good people . what are we supposed to learn , if anything , from such senseless loss how do we keep anger and confusion from casting a shadow over the rest of our lives ? all i can say is the answer does n't lie in how emily died , it lies in how she lived . how she touched everyone here with her loving kindness , her generosity of spirit . the answer lies in the hearts of those who knew and loved emily best . her dearest friend is going to help us find those answers by remembering and honoring emily 's life . elizabeth ? [ scene_break ] [ luke groans ] luke : save the lecture , doctor . i 've heard it enough from my wife . leo : actually , i was going to admire your renegade spirit . it speaks to the rock and roller in me . luke : do you play an instrument ? leo : yeah , guitar . luke : so what are you doing here ? leo : ah . regina : no talent -- as opposed to his amazing talent as a cardiologist . leo : thank you . look , this is the cardiologist speaking , all right ? you go back to your party - all - night lifestyle , all right , you might as well do us all a little favor and put a gun to your head . luke : what are you telling me ? that i 'm supposed to live like some broken - down geriatric ? leo : yeah , pretty much , i am . luke : i 'll take the gun . [ scene_break ] michael : hey , mom , can we make a collage out of emily 's pictures ? carly : i think that would be a great idea . would you wait for morgan ? what are you doing here ? johnny : i need to talk to you . carly : you know what ? we 've had a really hard day . johnny : i would n't have come if it was n't important . carly : fine . come on . stay here . wait a sec . come inside . i want you inside . michael : who are you ? johnny : my name 's john zacchara . what 's yours ? michael : stay away from my mom . carly : michael -- michael : mom , the zaccharas are dad 's enemies . you ca n't trust him . carly : that 's enough , okay ? michael : did n't you hear me ? he 's the enemy ! carly : michael , that is enough . i want you to take your brother and go upstairs while i talk to johnny , and if i catch you listening , you 're in big trouble . michael : come on . carly : sorry about that . johnny : he reminds me a lot of myself at that age . you know , not quite clear on all the details , but you know that , because of what your dad does , it makes you different , that normal rules do n't apply . carly : michael 's lost two people who are very important to him . that 's why he 's acting out . johnny : my mother tried to protect me , too . in the end , you ca n't . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm sorry , i 'm -- i 'm probably the worst public speaker , ever , in the best of circumstances . the thought makes me sick to my stomach on a day like this . but emily deserves the best i have to give , and i need to speak about her , so that is what i 'm going to do . grace . dignity . generosity . kindness . unconditional love . we all know emily personified those qualities , but there was something else , something that was n't as apparent , and that 's what i would like to address first . elizabeth : people who did n't know emily tended to mistake her softness for weakness . but she was the epitome of the iron fist in the velvet glove . ask anyone who ever snapped her last nerve . i ca n't speak for any of you , but i know i never wanted to be on the receiving end of emily 's righteous indignation . but that was n't her usual way . if she wanted you to do the right thing , which was always so clear to her , she would win you over with calm and reason . and before you knew it , you were doing exactly what she suggested . and if you chose to do the very thing she urged you not to , her love never wavered , because she was loyal to the people she loved , no matter what . especially her notoriously nutty family . never has a child been so unlike the family who adopted her . at least on the surface . but as it turned out , she was a perfect fit . edward , i can not count the number of times i have heard you say that emily was the center , the heart of your family . and to a certain extent , that was true . but to emily , the heart of the family was always you . and , monica , i know you can barely think right now . but when you can , i hope you 'll take comfort in knowing that you , more than anyone , changed the course of emily 's life . you came along when she needed you the most . you took her into your heart , into your home . you and alan became her inspiration . you gave her focus and ambition , and i know she never stopped being grateful for that . more than anything , or anyone , the quartermaines were responsible for shaping the incredible woman emily turned out to be . you should all be very proud . [ scene_break ] carly : for the record , it 's not a good idea for you to show up at the house where sonny 's kids live . johnny : i 'm here to see you . carly : okay . what do you want ? johnny : we 've had time to get some distance from the ball . anything come back that might help you point to the identity of the man who tried to strangle you ? carly : no . he came up from behind me . i did n't see anything . you 're the one who saw him running away . you still sure it 's not your father ? johnny : positive . carly : really ? are you sure you 're not trying to protect him out of loyalty ? johnny : my father murdered my mother in front of my face . the last thing i would do is lie to protect him . carly : okay . keep talking . johnny : my father did n't strangle you , and i 'm starting to doubt that he killed emily , which means the person who did is still out there . i need to stop him before he gets to somebody else . carly : like lulu ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : emily had a wonderful way of making families beyond her own . one consisted of the people she worked with . epiphany , emily was especially fond of you . she saw your heart , and she knew it was as big as the universe . i do n't know if she ever got a chance to tell you , but she was always so appreciative of your sage advice -- and your belief in her future as a doctor . patrick , bobbie , dr. ford , emily learned so much from all of you -- about the power of medical teamwork . she also had her family of girlfriends . robin , kelly , lainey . we 'll always have jake 's . emily 's friendship was a gift . i know . elizabeth : i was fortunate enough to call her my best friend since we were teenagers . she was my rock , my support system , and i will carry her in my heart for as long as i live . [ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : there is someone else i would like to mention . jason . he owned a unique place in emily 's heart , a place reserved only for him . he was n't just her brother . he was her hero . jason could n't be here today , but i could n't talk about emily and not say his name . ( guitar strumming ) elizabeth : sometimes , the bonds you make in high school follow you through your life . as most of you know , emily , lucky , nikolas , and i became friends back then . the friendship stuck , and so did the nickname . much to nikolas ' embarrassment , we were collectively known -- at least to ourselves -- as the four musketeers . we were an unlikely combination . four very different people from very different backgrounds who came to rely on each other in profound ways . each of us was changed by the others , and we found the meaning of true friendship . just as emily in her quiet and understated way became the touchstone for the quartermaines , she did the same for the musketeers . lucky , how do i thank you for bringing my best friend into my life ? it 's a debt i will never be able to repay . and , nikolas , i hope you know emily loved you more than anyone . [ scene_break ] leo : why the big rush to die ? nothing to live for ? luke : i have plenty to live for , doctor , if i live my life my way . if you expect me to sit in some rocking chair with a blanket around me waiting for my heart to stop , forget it . leo : no , no one 's asking you to . okay ? just take a break from all the gonzo stuff long enough for us to repair the damage . once that 's done , do what you want . okay ? i mean , with a few restrictions , of course . luke : `` restrictions `` -- that word is not in my vocabulary . leo : yeah , i 'm getting that . regina : bypass is a common procedure . letterman got one , so did regis , and they were both back on air in a matter of weeks . luke : pet interviews and stupid celebrity tricks . save the pep talk . leo : let me spell it out for you . have the surgery and live , do n't die . that simple . luke : doctor , we all get our tickets punched eventually , and right now , i 'm feeling really good . leo : really ? that 's why your heart rate practically leapt off the chart just from getting out of bed ? luke : well , come on . put a beautiful young nurse around me , what do you expect ? scott : hey , you know what ? you 're wasting your time . if he wants to kill himself , i say stand clear . [ scene_break ] carly : i know you went to wyndemere to protect lulu . what i 'm curious about is why you would risk so much for a girl you barely knew . unless you had a thing for her . johnny : i dragged lulu into this mess when i picked her up hitchhiking that first night . i owe it to her to try to finish what i started . carly : so now you feel like you have a permanent obligation to lulu ? johnny : i do n't like that somebody 's hiding behind my father 's insanity to strangle women . i do n't like thinking that he could do it again , and no , i do n't want lulu to be next . carly : then maybe you should tell her . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : for emily , it was love at first sight . but when she fell for nikolas , she was just a gawky kid , and he was your typical clueless male object of affection . [ music plays ] elizabeth : nikolas had no idea what they would come to mean to each other . but emily always knew . it started out as a crush on a fairy - tale prince . and she ended up with a partner . a soul mate . the love of her life . singer : may your soul be blessed may your body rest on the mount where you were born may your spirit soar where there 's joy evermore may you find your way in peace singers : and there 's no more harm in your savior 's arms see you fly away in the sky did you hear the call of angels one and all ? may you find your way in peace singer : may you know you 're loved may you shine above over the mount where you were born may your spirit soar there 's no pain anymore may you find your way in peace singers : and there 's no more harm in your savior 's arms elizabeth : nikolas , emily told me so many times she was the luckiest woman in the world to have your love . but really , we 're the lucky ones -- every single person sitting here today -- to have had emily grace our lives at all . singers : one and all may you find your way in peace may you find you way in peace father coates : in god 's presence is the fullness of joy , and at his right hand , love eternal . amen . all : amen . [ organ plays ] [ scene_break ] leo : i do n't particularly care if you like my patient or not . i 'm not going to let you sit here and upset him . luke : doctor , the day i ca n't handle this clown is the day you can start shoveling the dirt over my face . scott : you know , it does n't make any difference . you might as well be dead when you 're on one of your little skin diving trips down there in florida , spencer . life goes on , your kids make decisions . i 'm sure tracy 's probably got a younger gigolo waiting in the wings . leo : all right , come on . let 's go , let 's go . luke : yeah , and take your dime - store psychology with you , too . scott : you think i 'm trying to trick you into getting some kind of heart surgery , spencer ? i ca n't wait for you to kick the bucket . luke : really ? scott : yeah . luke : i do n't think so . if i drop dead , you lose your only excuse . scott : what 's that supposed to mean ? luke : that means that for the last 30 years , every screw - up of your life you 've blamed on me . who are you going to point to when i 'm gone ? scott : well , that 's a good question , spencer . i do n't know the answer . ca n't wait to find out , though . luke : try it yourself ! leo : all right , say goodbye , mr. baldwin . let 's go .

[ scene_break ] johnny : i ai n't going to lie -- i like lulu . i 'd like her a lot more if she stayed alive , and she improves her chances at doing so if she stays away from me . carly : that 's a good answer , because with your father out of the picture , your life 's going to be even more dangerous and i do n't want my cousin anywhere near that . johnny : then we 're on the same page . carly : listen to me , okay ? i 've had more experience in this area than i 've ever cared to , so i know what i 'm talking about . you 're the son of a major crime boss . that means you inherit everything that comes along with it whether you want to or not .

[ scene_break ] epiphany : something on your mind , dr. ford ? russell : yes . i want to commend you on your mentorship of emily and to let you know that your influence on behalf of the staff does n't go unnoticed . epiphany : well , that girl would 've made one hell of a doctor . russell : which makes her loss all the more tragic . i mean , when you think of the lives she could 've saved . epiphany : well , we do n't have time for `` what ifs `` when there 's work to be done . [ scene_break ] patrick : you know , we 're around death every day . we learn to take it in stride , but this -- this is just -- she was just here , bright , vibrant , part of the team , and now she 's just gone . it slaps you in the face how quickly it can all be over . robin : and what a waste it is to miss any chance of happiness that we get . [ scene_break ] monica : uh , we have to get to this reception . ned : monica , if you want to beg off , we 'll cover for you . monica : oh , no , no . there are people that loved emily . they want to express their condolences , share their memories . nikolas : i want to thank all of you for emily . she was a miracle . skye : we should be thanking you . dillon : she 's right . i mean , you literally made emily 's dreams come true . nikolas : thank you . edward : so , what do we do now ? just go home and -- and start over without her ? ned : she 'd want us to take care of each other , which is not something that this family is particularly good at . but maybe for emily 's sake we can just try to stop bickering for a while and try to see the good in each other , the way emily always saw the good in us . edward : hmm . monica : hmm . dillon : that was good , ned . skye : yeah . it 's something emily would say . edward : well , she was certainly an inspiration to us . monica : okay . then let 's go home and be gracious for emily . edward : mm - hmm . let 's go .

dante : so , thank you for coming in . we will be in touch . wow . lulu : welcome . thanks for answering our ad . you want some juice or some sparkling water ? how about a bloody mary ? dante : [ chuckles ] well , it is a club . people drink in clubs . lulu : at 10 : 00 in the morning ? dante : yeah , it 's happy hour somewhere . lulu : when you 're interviewing to be a surrogate . and that voice ? i swear , i thought she was gon na say that she would give up smoking for the pregnancy and wear the patch . dante : okay , well , she 's not pregnant yet . lulu : and she wo n't be with our kid . dante : all right , so , she 's off the list . who 's next ? lulu : who cares ? this whole thing is a bust . do you think it 's too late to consider maxie ? spinelli : sorry . i did n't know you like jelly . please have it . i 'd just get strawberry preserves all over me while you wo n't even leave a trace of glaze . maxie : huh . interest rates are down . that 's awful . spinelli : that 's actually good . maxie : i wonder how the codgers are doing this term . spinelli : it 's the dodgers , and it 's football season . maxie : oh - ho ! that opus the penguin is such a card ! spinelli : yeah , he was , while he was still in print . look , maxie ... i 'm sorry i hurt your feelings , okay ? but this -- this silent treatment is -- it 's impractical and improbable . look , at some point , we 're gon na have to talk to each other , and there 's too much at stake between us not to . ellie : damian 's right . there 's more going on here than you 've let on , and now i know all about it . a.j . : [ chuckles ] that 's better . [ door closes ] michael : hey . a.j . : hey , michael . what brings you here , son ? michael : just checking in , seeing how the family 's doing . a.j . : good . uh , yeah , we 're -- we 're hanging in there . alice is interviewing new cooks , and mom 's taking care of lila rae . we 're all trying to not think about grandfather . i think as long as we stay busy , we 'll be okay . michael : what 's this ? a.j . : um , that 's a -- that 's just a little idea i was talking to skye about . shawn : pine valley ? port charles too dull for you ? skye : oh , no , i just like to keep up with all the goings - on in my former burgs , you know ? pine valley , llanview , port charles ... shawn : oh , what 's going on in pine valley ? skye : actually , my uncle stuart is an artist , and he 's gon na have an art exhibition , and i 'm gon na head down to see it . carly : why do n't you do us all a favor and stay there ? starr : molly , come on . molly : no . no , no , no . really , i do n't -- i do n't know if this is a good idea . i doubt your father 's gon na want to publish my manuscript . starr : he will once he sees how great it is . molly : but what if he hates it ? starr : okay , look -- i know that my dad has a reputation for being ruthless , but deep down inside , he 's just a little pussycat . molly : well , he was n't much of a pussycat when he fired my sister . starr : well , there were extenuating circumstances . besides , you have me on your side today . you just have to catch him in a good mood . todd : aaaaaaaaah ! starr : your aim is off . todd : what do you want ? starr : i need to talk to you . todd : that 's right you do ! you need to apologize for stabbing me in the back ! sonny : any progress ? max : i think you better see for yourself , boss . sonny : how 's our patient , doc ? dr. chriton : she 's a handful . ellie : damian , maximilliana , it 's time you told me ... the truth . spinelli : the truth ? ellie : yeah . the one you 've omitted , about the real , unvarnished nature of your relationship . maxie : real ? spinelli : unvarnished ? ellie : yes , that you two are married ! dante : i thought we already talked about this . lulu : we did . dante : okay . and we decided we did n't want to take maxie up on her offer because it was gon na complicate things . lulu : but what if we were wrong ? i mean , we know maxie . dante : yeah , we know maxie . lulu : she cares about us , and she wants to help us . dante : yeah , maxie cares about us , in her own special way , and i think she would do this in a heartbeat . lulu : right . so what 's the problem ? dante : that is the problem ? she 's so impulsive with her decision - making , i do n't think she thinks about the consequences of anything unless it has something to do with what outfit she 's gon na wear . lulu : mm . yeah , but we did have a very extensive conversation about surrogacy , and we even ... talked about the possibility of stretch marks , which she tripped over and still decided she wanted to go through with it . dante : okay . well , so maybe maxie 's not completely off the table . but let 's -- you know , we got one more applicant . let 's not make any snap decisions just because the others have been -- lulu : disastrous . dante : let 's see what this one has to say . who knows ? maybe the perfect surrogate is still out there . sonny : i do n't understand . how did somebody who 's bound and gagged manage to give you a black eye ? dr. chriton : i tried hypnotizing her to coax kate into emerging . that 's when she head - butted me . connie : [ shouting ] sonny : no sign of kate ? dr. chriton : none . this is the most entrenched alter i 've ever experienced . i 'm sorry , mr. corinthos , but i am not the doctor for this job . sonny : keep trying . sooner or later , you 're gon na get it . she 'll break through sooner or later . dr. chriton : no , i do n't know if she 's gon na break through into her mind or into my skull . i - i 'm sorry , but i -- sonny : you 're the doctor , so you got to do what you have to do . do you understand ? dr. chriton : no , you do n't need a doctor . you need an exorcist . connie : come on ! max : what now , boss ? sonny : take a break , take a break . max : you sure ? sonny : go get something to eat . leave me alone with connie . max : all right . sonny : what am i gon na do with you ? connie : aaaaaah ! todd : well , what do you have to say for yourself , benedicta arnold ? molly : m - maybe i should go . starr : it 'll only take a minute . how have i wronged you this time ? come on , get your rant over with so we can move on . todd : like you do n't know . starr : i do n't know . oh . todd : `` oh ! `` `` oh ! `` starr : oh . todd : `` oh ! `` the wedding 's saturday ! they could n't wait for the body to be cold ? ! molly : body ? todd : i 'm the body ! they 're dancing on my grave , and you -- you could n't tell me ? starr : i thought you knew -- todd : how the hell would i know ? the only person that speaks to me from llanview thinks i 'm spider - man 'cause he 's 7 ! you did n't think to mention to me that mother was marrying an assassin ? starr : i was a little worried that you would n't react very well to it . todd : oh , come on ! i can handle disappointing news ! starr : like you 're handling it right now ? todd : she 's marrying that guy . starr : she says that she loves him . todd : he kidnapped me . he took me away from her . he took me away from you . he took me away from everything . he made it possible for that bastard victor to steal my life for eight years . how can she possibly be okay with this ? ! starr : you 're gon na have to ask her that yourself . todd : and how can you be okay with that ? ! you are not going to this wedding ! starr : she 's my mom . todd : i 'm your father ! starr : dad , i 'm sorry . todd : so am i . carly : someone must miss you in pine valley . no one does here . skye : oh , before i forget , i 'd like to thank you . for your condolences . losing edward was such a terrible ordeal , and it really meant so much -- carly : you 're as much edward 's granddaughter as i am . skye : i 'm as much of a quartermaine as michael is a corinthos . carly : i was married to sonny . your mother banged some sideshow carnie and sired you in the sawdust . shawn : okay , carly , maybe you should take a step back -- carly : you know what this bitch did to me ? she was a.j . 's willing accomplice . skye : i had nothing to do with a.j . kidnapping michael . carly : before that , she slept her way across the eastern seaboard , leeching off one rich family after another . skye : like that 's not something you would never even remotely do . carly : save the crocodile tears , okay ? you did n't lose edward . he was never yours to lose . skye : i 'm gon na let this one go . carly : really ? you 're gon na take the high road ? you should get a map . skye : maybe i 'll drop you a line , and maybe you can tell me then what you 've learned about loss . carly : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? skye : well , by that time , michael will have taken his place by a.j . , right where he belongs . and you will be utterly and completely forsaken . michael : should n't you be focused on your defense ? a.j . : yeah , well , you know , diane 's handling all that . she said if i just do what i 'm told and stay out of the way , she 'll do everything else . michael : well , that sounds like diane . a.j . : yeah . you know , i think right now , elq is my best distraction . the only problem is , tracy 's the c.e.o . , and she 's never gon na let me back in the company . michael : well , not unless she gets voted out . a.j . : [ chuckles ] now you 're thinking like a quartermaine . that 's exactly what skye said . okay , here 's what we 're doing . we were actually crunching the numbers to see if i could get enough support -- actually a majority of the shareholders -- to side with me . michael : and how did it fall out ? a.j . : that depends on you . lulu : why do you want to be a surrogate ? woman : okay . well , uh ... i have two kids of my own , and i love it , so i figured , why not help people who want to have a family of their own but are having trouble getting one started ? lulu : and your husband is okay with this ? woman : he supports it . to be perfectly honest with you , he 's out of work , and we could use the money . and , as it turns out , i 'm one of those women who loved being pregnant . doing it again seems like a pretty good way to spend nine months while providing for my family at the same time . ellie : so , now that your secret marriage has been uncovered , i have to ask ... what 's your game ? spinelli : ellie , there is no game . ellie : so you deny that you 're luring me into your bed of lies , your extratraditional family ? spinelli : i 'm sorry . `` extra `` what ? ellie : i 'm sorry . but i do n't have it in me to be anybody 's sister wife . maybe it works for hipsters or hollywood actors or -- maxie : no , no , no ! i do n't want a sister wife . spinelli : i do n't have a sister nor a wife in the first place ! ellie : well , what about her ? so you two are n't married ? spinelli : nor have we ever been . ellie : okay . well , then , how do you explain this ? connie : sonny corinthos has me in here ! please ! sonny : i 'm sorry . did you say something ? connie : you ca n't do this to me . sonny : i already did . connie : you can not kidnap me and tie me up here , sonny ! sonny : says who ? you ? connie : this is n't gon na work ! you know i have a life . sonny : uh - huh . you have kate 's life , the one you stole from her while she was traumatized . connie : if kate wanted her life , she 'd be living it . do you see her here ? ! sonny : not yet . connie : look , you hold me in here , the more trouble you 're gon na get in . i have people who care about me . sonny : name one . name one ! connie : my husband ! he 's gon na come looking for me . sonny : funny thing about johnny . i had my people on him while you took your little vacation . he did n't have a care in the world . connie : he 's not the only one . sonny : and your boss , manning , he packed up all your stuff the day you left . let 's check your phone . is it in your purse ? huh ? whoa ! let 's see . let 's see what we got . okay . there it is . hmm . no missed calls , no voicemail , no texts . it almost seems to me ... like people are happy to get rid of you . why would that be ? todd : well , you 've made your loyalties clear . you can leave . starr : dad , i talked to mom ... about your first wedding , and ... she said that she loved you . and when you danced and you showered her with golden balloons , that it was the perfect moment . todd : she said that ? just that ? she said it was perfect ? how can she marry another guy ? starr : because he makes her happy now . todd : she 's lying . she 's a liar . she 's lying to herself , she 's lying to you -- i hope you know that -- she 's lying to you . starr : dad , you ca n't make me choose sides . todd : i think you already have . starr : okay , i realize that you 're in a very bad mood right now , but i have -- todd : hell of a day for you to master the art of the understatement . starr : i have something that can make it better . todd : what ? starr : turn around and meet molly . molly , my dad . todd : you 're molly ? you 're gon na make it all better ? what 're you gon na do ? do you make balloon animals ? do you juggle ? entertain me . nothing ? useless . elev 's over there . i 'm sure you can figure it out after that . starr : molly wrote a book . todd : oh , goodie for molly . snooki wrote a book . snooki wrote three . starr : well , molly wrote a good book -- a very , very great book , actually . todd : terrific . what does that have to do with me ? starr : did n't you acquire a publishing house when you expanded your empire ? todd : no , starr . i acquired two publishing houses . starr : you should invest in this . you will make a mint . i 'm telling you , i could n't put the novel down , it was so good . todd : okay . i trust your taste . you got great taste in everything but boys . i will give that manuscript a look - see , provided you do one thing in return . starr : name it . todd : boycott your mother 's wedding . a.j . : i ca n't get rid of tracy unless i get a majority of the shareholders behind me . right now , as it stands , she 's got 41 % , assuming that alice and maya throw their weight behind her . michael : yeah , probably . a.j . : okay , with mom and skye , i 've got 35 % . now , you join the cause , well , hey , suddenly , we 've got ourselves a tie . and that means that sam has the deciding vote . michael : so you 're asking me to help remove tracy from elq . a.j . : look , i do n't want to cut her out completely . i just want to remove her as the c.e.o . michael : has she done that bad of a job ? a.j . : well , elq has certainly done better . michael : and you think you could fix it . a.j . : michael , i know elq like the back of my hand . before ned opted out for his little music career , i was the one being groomed to take over the company . ' course , i think we all know how that ended up . michael : yeah , did n't you embezzle like half of elq 's operating budget ? a.j . : yes , which is another reason why grandfather was ashamed of me . but he got most of the money back . it was confiscated and was returned after my so- called death . michael : still , i can see why the shareholders would have a hard time trusting you . michael : yeah , i get it , and that 's why i came back -- to make amends . michael , i 'll do whatever i have to to uphold the quartermaine legacy . it 's too late for me to make grandfather proud , but i really believe that i can make the family proud , and i could use your help . michael : [ scoffs ] i do n't know . tracy 's been pretty decent to me . we kind of get along . at least , we did . a.j . : okay . what changed ? michael : you coming back , and then she went on this mission to throw you in prison . a.j . : so that means you 'll consider it . skye : must be terrible , carly , really , knowing that michael is n't that impressionable young boy he once was . carly : do n't talk about my kid . michael knows who his parents are . he knows we love him , and he loves us . skye : well , give it time . you and sonny ca n't keep him walled up anymore . you ca n't lie and scam your way out of it this time . carly : i do n't need to lie . michael remembers everything . he remembers being kidnapped and being lied to . he remembers seeing a.j . almost kill jason . skye : oh . that 's it ! of course ! jason is n't here anymore . he 's not here to save you and clean up your messes . well , finally , michael 's gon na get to know who his father really is , and he 'll get to know his mother for what she really is -- the slut of port charles ! maxie : that is mine . um , what were you doing in my room ? ellie : i was innocently looking for the hairbrush i lent you when this caught my eye -- a portrait of you and my erstwhile boyfriend in nuptial regalia . anybody ? spinelli : ellie , you deserve to know that maxie and i were once betrothed . ellie : betrothed ? maxie : that means engaged . ellie : no , i know what it means . spinelli : but maxie was n't ready . so we ... we called it off , and we had a -- a non - wedding . ellie : okay , define `` non - wedding . `` spinelli : no vows were made , no commitments . we basically just skipped to the after party , and now -- now we 're just friends . ellie : but you intended to we d and spend the rest of your lives in tax- deductible connubial bliss . so how did you go from that to non - marriage to just friends ? woman : this is a nice place . if this works out , i 'm glad the baby will be well - provided for . lulu : actually , i 'm just part owner here . woman : oh . still , you 're certainly doing better than my husband and i , given how much surrogacy costs . lulu : yes , it is expensive . dante : well , my father was generous enough to help us out . woman : that 's nice . what i would n't give to have a fairy godfather . dante : it 's not quite like that , though . lulu : um , you know , we 're good for it . it 'll all be stipulated in a contract . we 'll cover any costs related to pregnancy . woman : would that include my rent ? i do n't want to sound selfish , but having a baby , there 's a lot of overhead -- groceries , medicine -- and it may not always seem like it , but it 's all for the benefit of the baby . you do want a healthy , stress - free surrogate , right ? lulu : yeah , we can just work that out in the details . woman : i hope so . you 're a lovely couple . i 'd much rather help you out than the others . dante : uh , sorry . others ? woman : i thought i told you . there 's another couple . lulu : you 're talking to another couple ? woman : it 's just talk . obviously , there has n't been a commitment . but in the interest of full disclosure , i should tell you , they 're offering a very generous package . lulu : [ chuckles ] uh ... well , people who ca n't carry their own child will go to great lengths to get one , but we do n't want to buy a baby . woman : what else would you call it ? a.j . : son , elq is your birthright . now , i understand that maybe you 're nervous , but i could teach you , if you 'll let me . michael : i ... i got school and stuff . i have no time to learn the ropes at elq . a.j . : so you 're saying that really this is just a question of having enough time . michael : yeah . a.j . : or maybe it 's something else . michael : like what ? a.j . : that night , in lockup , when you refused to leave my side , i felt like you and i were really connecting , and i got to tell you , now i feel like you 're pulling away . michael : i 'm just being cautious . a.j . : you sure sonny has n't gotten to you ? sonny : why are you with johnny ? do n't you want a real man ? connie : why do n't you show me one . i 'll let you know . sonny : i mean , he 's weak . i did n't know vulnerability turned you on so much . you know what i mean ? connie : you got a point there , sonny . i do like a strong man . which reminds me , where 's milo , huh ? that guy 's built like a brick house . he 's a great kisser , to boot . why is n't he on guard duty ? [ gasps ] are you afraid we wo n't be able to resist each other ? sonny : i 'm not worried about milo . connie : you should be . youth , vigor ... i 'd take him over you any day . or the plumber or the garbage man or the extermina -- sonny : what is your problem with me ? why do you hate me so much ? molly : um , you know -- starr : i 'm not boycotting mom 's wedding ! todd : fine . then go back to llanview , and take your young - adult novel with you , and ask your new stepfather to publish it for you . oh , that 's right . he ca n't publish it for you . he 's not a publisher . he kills people , and he does it for money . starr : you know what ? that actually sounds like a great idea . i 'm sure between mom and tomás , they know someone in publishing that would love to read your novel . molly : really ? starr : yes , really . molly , any editor would be intrigued , not only by the story line in your novel but by your personal history , as well . you are the daughter of a cassadine ... and the sister to the notorious sam morgan , who was in a very public kidnapping . todd : excuse me ? starr : oh , i 'm sorry . you did n't know that molly is sam morgan 's sister ? todd : so what ? starr : imagine all the publicity angles . after everything that her family has been through , do n't you think it would be nice if something good would happen -- todd : she got the baby back . is n't that enough ? starr : no ! that does n't make up for all of the months that molly and her family did n't get to spend with her nephew , right ? so maybe publishing molly 's novel would make things a little bit more right . todd : you were such a sweet little girl . what happened ? starr : i 'm my father 's daughter . todd : fine . give me the damn book . starr : pleasure doing business with you . molly : what just happened ? max : no , hey , hey ! shawn : you 're grown women ! skye : she hit me first ! carly : oh , you 're insane ! skye : oh ! look what you did ! do you know how long i waited in line for this version ? ! carly : i 'm sure there 's some geek somewhere that 'll sleep with you if you want another one . skye : i swear , if you broke this , i 'll -- [ gasps ] carly : oh , my god . skye : lorenzo ? carly : alcazar . skye : he looks just like lorenzo . carly : i mean , it says here his name is tomás delgado . skye : and wait , wait . he 's marrying ... ugh ! blair cramer ? carly : i like blair . skye : yeah , you would . carly : what do you have against blair ? skye : well , gee , i do n't know . she borrowed my nail polish , did n't return it , and then framed me for attempted murder . carly : [ chuckles ] good for blair . skye : oh , what does that all matter ? what matters is that lorenzo is alive , the father of my daughter . carly : i knew that blair was marrying tomás delgado , but i did n't know he looked so much like alcazar . skye : he does n't just look like him . he looks exactly like him ! how is that even possible ? carly : i think i know someone who can help us . starr : what are you doing ? todd : what do you mean what am i doing ? i have a job . i publish a newspaper . starr : you 're supposed to be reading the novel . todd : daddy 's a big shot . i do n't do things that i do n't want to do . i pay people to do the things that i do n't feel like doing . starr : i promised molly that you would give this your personal attention . todd : starr , i 'm really busy here . i ca n't just drop everything to read a kids book . starr : did i fail to mention that molly is sam morgan 's baby sister ? todd : fine . what 's it about ? starr : oh , my god . it 's amazing . todd : 50 words or less . starr : it 's about this -- todd : no , no , starr , not you . you . you 're on kid . pitch me . dante : look , this is a very personal decision . we just prefer not to talk about it like it was a business transaction . woman : i understand . but we 're not just talking about a child . we 're also talking about my life . you 're asking a complete stranger to relinquish nine months of her time to tolerate all the ups and downs of pregnancy , to carry a baby to term , feel it growing in her womb , deliver it , then give it up and go our separate ways . no matter how you put it , i 'd be providing you with a service . dante : and we understand that . woman : i 'm sure you do . by that some token , i do n't think it 's wrong of me to ask for something in return . i need to be providing for my own family while i 'm providing you with yours . lulu : why do n't we just table this for now , and we 'll be in touch to schedule a second conversation ? woman : you seem like good people , and i 'm sure you 'll make great parents . but you might want to lower your expectations . candidates like me are few and far between . maxie : that was a -- a different time in our lives -- my life , anyway . ellie : yeah , but clearly , you and damian loved each other enough to become engaged . so why are n't you together now ? maxie : spinelli did n't want me anymore . spinelli : it is significantly more complicated than that . maxie : well ... when it came time to say our vows , um ... spinelli is actually -- he 's the smartest person that i know , and ... he realized i was n't ready to give him the commitment that he deserved . but by the time i was ready to settle down , he had moved on . i guess you could say i waited him out of his feelings for me , so ... ellie : and now ?

[ chuckles ] michael : i love my parents . i ca n't shut that off . i do n't want to . a.j . : i get it . i do . i ... i was n't around , and so you bonded with sonny and carly . michael : look , i get that you 're not solely to blame for everything . it 's complicated . everybody was wrong . and as much as you have to accept my relationship with them , they have to accept my relationship with you . you 're back , and , really , i 'm glad that we have the chance now to get to know each other . a.j . : you think sonny will accept that ? michael : you know , it does n't matter . a.j . : michael , i probably do n't need to tell you this , but sonny does n't like when anyone challenges his authority . and when he hears no , well , he usually figures out a way to change their mind . sonny : you have tried every trick in the book to try to trash my life with kate -- to get her and you out of my life . i just want to know why . connie : since when do you care about my reasons ? suddenly , you just want everyone to love you ? sonny : like you used to ? if you 're the host personality , that means kate is a symptom . right ? connie : that 's right . sonny : that means you 're the girl that i fell in love with back in bensonhurst , and you -- you were in love with me . you fell in love with me . or are you just the alter ? connie : i am not ... sonny : hey . connie : ... the alter . sonny : okay , okay . so then you are connie ... the girl i fell in love with in bensonhurst , and you 're the girl who fell in love with me . if that is true , why are you coming at me so hard ? why frame me for those kids ' deaths ? why humiliate me at her wedding ? we loved each other , right ? so why would you turn your back on me ? connie : 'cause i got raped , sonny . sonny : not by me . by joe . connie : because of you ! if you would have been there , i would never have been raped . todd : come on , molly . i have n't got all day . what 's your book about ? what are the characters ? is there a journey ? please tell me that there 's a journey . molly : yeah , i mean , the -- the main character travels from southern maine to another part of maine for -- todd : no , an emotional journey ... some kind of hook , something for the audience to get invested in . molly : oh , that . yeah , there 's definitely that . i mean , it 's something everyone can relate to . it 's a love story . todd : oh . no . fine . what -- what kind of -- what kind of a love story ? like , unrequited love , first love , love / hate ? molly : i do n't know . todd : you do n't know . tell you what -- why do n't you come back when you do know . molly : the kind of love that hurts . the kind that 's no good for you but you ca n't do without . it makes you feel stupid because you keep going back for it , because you keep thinking , `` this time will be different . this time , it 'll work . `` that 's 50 words exactly , sir , after my last `` i do n't know . `` am i disqualified ? todd : h - how does it end ? molly : read it and see . todd : you got to tell me . you ca n't just do -- do they end up together ? please tell me they end up together . starr : start on page 1 . dante : we were on the same page , for the most part . lulu : except our baby does n't have a price tag . dante : yeah , baby , we 're gon na have to pay a surrogate . lulu : i know , but that woman , first , she tries to get us in a bidding war over her uterus , and then she tries to make us feel bad about `` buying `` a baby ? i mean , can you imagine nine months of that ? dante : the right surrogate is out there , okay ? we just have to keep looking . lulu : what if we 've already found her ? maxie : well , um , now you have your explanation and , i 'm assuming , your hairbrush , so ... could i get my picture back ? ellie : i apologize . and i promise i will never go in your room again without asking . maxie : no , it 's okay . i think we needed to get all this out in the open anyway . i have to go . spinelli : that 's -- that 's it ? we do n't need to talk anymore ? maxie : i 'm pretty sure we do n't have anything to talk about . [ door closes ] a.j . : when sonny does n't get what he wants , he does not hesitate to use force . that 's the difference between me and sonny . all right ? i know i ca n't coerce a feeling out of you . he 's been doing that to you your whole life . michael : you may need to believe that , but you 're wrong . a.j . : come on , michael . he 's volatile , right ? he screams , he yells , you try and make it okay , right ? you probably got that from jason . but here 's the thing -- jason was an adult . it was his choice to dedicate his life to sonny . no offense , but you 're still a kid . he should be looking after you . michael : i do n't need anybody to take care of me . a.j . : sonny wants you to love him and reject me . and when he does n't get what he wants , he has no compunction about putting a gun to someone 's head . you mark my words , you keep defying him , and sooner or later , he 'll do that to you . michael : i got to go . uh , i just wanted to stop by . a.j . : [ sighs ] michael , please , think about what i said -- not just about sonny but about elq . 'cause i 'm telling you , i got a gut feeling you and i could be a great team . sonny : you blame me for what joe jr. did to you ? connie : you ca n't even say the words , can you ! joe jr. raped me because of you ! you remember what joe jr. was like back then , sonny , remember ? his father would throw money at him with one hand and cut him down with the other . he was stupid . he was n't tough enough . he did n't have enough potential -- not like you . you were the son scully never had , right ? how many times did he say that to you ? how many times did joe jr . hear him say that ? joe jr . knew his own father favored you , and you did nothing . sonny : joe jr. was scum . connie : you loved that he was scum . you loved the way you looked in comparison to him . he would never measure up to you , and he knew it . he could n't become you . but he could take what you had , so he did . he took me . sonny : i did n't know . connie : you could n't see past the halo that scully put on your head -- sonny corinthos , the chosen one ! that 's why you did n't know ! you were n't there when he ... when he forced himself ... on me . you said you loved me . you said you 'd always protect me . sonny : i would have done anything for you . connie : you did nothing to protect me ! i was alone when joe jr . came to the house . i had no help . i tried -- i tried to fight him off , with all of my might , but i could n't stop him ! and neither could you because you were n't there . why ? why were n't you there , sonny ? why did n't you save me ? spinelli : i am so sorry . i should have told you . ellie : yes , you should have . i had no idea you and maxie 's relationship had ever verged matrimony . spinelli : yeah , but you heard maxie . there 's nothing between us ! i made that very , very clear to her . ellie : and that was when ? spinelli : [ clears throat ] uh ... last week ? ellie : i 'm sorry . what ? spinelli : last week . ellie : [ scoffs ] but the wedding was when ? spinelli : three years ago . ellie : so , what exactly happened last week ? spinelli : maxie declared her love for me and then asked me to choose between you and her . maxie : oh ! you guys would not believe my morning . and it 's only gon na go downhill from here . i 'll be lucky if i make it to lunch without a head injury or a wardrobe malfunction . ugh ! so , what about you guys ? did you find your surrogate yet ? dante : uh , well , that depends . maxie : on what ? lulu : whether or not you still want to give us our baby . todd : oh , blair , what are you doing ? carly : hey , we need to talk . todd : about what ? carly : blair . todd : no , i 'm -- i 'm not gon na -- why would you want to talk to me about blair ? carly : okay , fine . we do n't have to talk about blair , but tell me everything you know about the man she 's gon na marry . todd : you want me to talk to you about the man that 's gon na marry the mother of my children ? carly : yes , and if you tell me fast , it wo n't hurt as bad . todd : are you trying to punish me ? carly : it 's important , todd . come on . todd : what ? no , i am not gon na discuss blair 's sorry excuse for a replacement husband tomás delgado with you . carly : what if i tell you that 's not tomás delgado ? sonny : i 'm sorry . i did n't know . connie : who are you apologizing to ? sonny : you , both . connie : does n't make a difference now . sonny : if i had known what joe was gon na do , if i had any way to stop him from attacking you , i 'd have done it . i 'm sorry that i was n't there to protect you . but you 're safe now . joe 's gone . he 's gone . i 'm not gon na let anybody hurt you , ever , okay ? you do n't ha -- you do n't have to be afraid anymore .

[ scene_break ] josslyn : what did sonny say ? it better not be about how today 's thanksgiving , and we should all be grateful , not when it 's his fault that morgan 's dead . carly : you can blame sonny for a lot of things , but he did not plant the bomb that killed morgan . josslyn : michael told me . but of course , michael wants to believe that sonny 's innocent . i mean , i was n't gon na pick a fight with him . but i do n't buy it . carly : okay . i ca n't tell you what to believe , but jason 's investigating , and he 's going to prove that sonny 's innocent . josslyn : innocent ? carly : innocent of this one thing . josslyn : so what does that mean ? do you forgive sonny now ? are you gon na call him back ?

nikolas : wearing a path on the floor wo n't make lucky come back any sooner . elizabeth : i know , but he 's been gone an awfully long time , and i do n't know if that 's a good or a bad thing . emily : it has to be good . nikolas : well , it 'll work one way or another . elizabeth : oh , here he is . hey . so ? what happened ? emily : oh . oh , i do n't want to hear this , do i ? lucky : i 'm sorry , but the judge considers you a flight risk . nikolas : what ? lucky : he wo n't release you for any reason , including the marriage . nikolas : well , fine . then i 'll just have to find a way to escape . [ scene_break ] heather : i 'm sorry it had to come to this , edward . but we were never exactly candidates for happily ever after , were we ? ours was a marriage of convenience , and unfortunately for you it 's become inconvenient for me . luke : get that out of my face ! [ scene_break ] sam : jason warned me , but i have to find a way to deal with things , so i went to the nursery . i must have fell asleep . sonny , i heard a baby . sonny : was she crying ? sam : no . no , they were happy noises . and i looked over to the mobile , and it was turning . it just -- it felt so real . i got up and i went over to the crib . and i reached inside , and it was empty . i guess i just screamed myself awake . sonny : i 'm sorry . can i get you some water ? sam : the empty crib -- i mean , that -- that was the real part . our baby 's gone . i never knew her , but i miss her . i miss her so much . sonny : hey -- [ scene_break ] [ keys rattle ] [ knock on door ] ric : listen , if you were the source of that file that incriminates sonny , i 'm sure you kept a copy for your own insurance . i want it now . otherwise , he 's not only going to walk , i 'm going to lose custody of my stepdaughter . john : i 'm sorry to disappoint you , but i ca n't help you , lansing . i ca n't hand over a file that 's supposed to incriminate sonny if i never had it to begin with . ric : there 's no reason to lie , all right ? you wanted me to go after sonny so you would n't get your hands dirty and possibly alienate your daughter . john : well , that 's an interesting theory . of course , i still have n't seen anything in the way of proof . ric : ok , this is the way it 's going to boil down . you either find a copy of that file or i 'm going to charge your daughter with arson . [ scene_break ] carly : i 'd appreciate an answer , and the simple truth will do here . steven : all right . john never mentioned stealing the file that ric 's using against sonny . carly : ok , that 's a small relief . now , i need to ask you something else , and i am trusting you for the truth on this one , too . did john come here to get to know me , or was it all about putting sonny in prison ? steven : he came for sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : i know something about how you feel . i miss our little girl every minute . sometimes , you know , i feel like -- [ sonny sighs ] sam : please , sonny , just tell me . sonny : i just feel like -- like it was completely my fault that we lost her . sam : it 's not your fault . there 's nothing you could have done . sonny : no , there were the things ; i could have done some things . you know , i could have reassured you , right , instead of always telling you my rights as a father , you know ? i could have -- i do n't know . sam : look , dr. meadows said that there was nothing anyone could have done , that the abruptio placentae would have happened regardless . i just do n't see how something so awful was meant to be , so -- sonny : i do n't know , yeah . i just realized i was n't -- i was n't there to help you out , and i just -- sam : no , sonny , you had your own pain to process . sonny : well , i know but , you know -- sam : kristina getting so sick , i just -- i understand . i do . sonny : but the good thing is that you -- jason was there for you . you were n't alone , hmm ? sam : jason 's been incredible , consistent . even when i tried to shut him out , he was still there . i do n't really know how i would have gotten through the first few days without him . sonny : from what i understand , jason 's going to be around as long as you need him . well , i should be going . sam : thanks for stopping by . sonny : i know you 're probably thinking it 's a lot easier for me because now i know that kristina 's my daughter , but that 's not true . no one can ever take the place of the child we lost . alexis : ahem . [ scene_break ] carly : so sonny and jason were right ? my father , who i defended , is a lying snake who only came here to use me to destroy my husband and my family . steven : no , no , no , no . it 's true . initially , john came to work an angle against sonny . but that was before he got to know his daughter . carly , you have touched him in a way that no one else has . carly : right . steven : he genuinely cares for you . he even loves you . and you got to believe me , you got to believe me . for john durant , that is something that does not happen often , and it does not happen easily . carly : ok , fine , fine , fine . steven : no , carly , he does not want to lose you . carly : fine ! well , say that i believe it , all right ? say that 's true . it does n't prove that he did n't steal that file . it only proves that he was slick enough to get it to ric without alienating me . then john durant -- he can cover his tracks across the board . does that sound like that could be what happened here ? steven : look , carly , look -- carly : you know , i 'm only asking you because it 's really important to me right now . steven : i think john is capable of maneuvering the situation . but whether or not he did in this case , i do n't know . you have to ask him . [ scene_break ] john : all right , look , i can certainly understand why you 're desperate to get your hands on that file , but i ca n't help you , lansing , because i never saw the damn thing . and as far as pressing charges against carly for arson , i 've already told you she was here with me when the fire in your apartment started . ric : ok , i kind of figured you were going to stonewall . you really should run for office , durant . john : oh , you know , maybe i would , except for i 'm telling the truth . ric : ok , well , we need to make that official . i need a sworn statement from you about your whereabouts with your daughter that night , including a detailed explanation of how you passed the time . john : hey , yeah , i got no problem with that . set it up . ric : well , we 're going to do it right here and right now . see , i 'm not going to give you and carly a chance to synchronize your stories . i 'm going to get a statement from you , then i 'm going to get a statement from her . and if they differ , i mean , even slightly , then that means you , carly , and dr. steven webber are going to be in for one rough ride . [ scene_break ] steven : carly , no , i do not like that look in your eyes . carly , do not go say something to your father that you ca n't take back . carly : ok , listen , it 's really nice of you to worry about me , but please do n't , ok ? i already got what i came for , and i appreciate it , but i will take care of it from here , ok ? you should get into bed anyway before you catch a draft or something . steven : what , what , you going to turn this around on me to make me conspicuous and feel ridiculous ? carly : i will be in touch . ofc . murphy : carly corinthos ? carly : yeah ? ofc . murphy : i was ordered to bring you downtown . carly : yeah ? for what ? ofc . murphy : the d.a . would like to speak to you about the fire inside his apartment . [ scene_break ] nikolas : it 's not like i 'm going on the run or anything . i just need enough time to marry you . emily : it 's not worth risking what could happen . nikolas : it 's worth it to me . marrying you is the only thing that matters to me right now . once that 's done , i 'll just -- you know , i 'll just turn myself back in . emily : right , unless something goes wrong , nikolas , and you get hurt or killed trying to escape . elizabeth : maybe there 's another way . [ scene_break ] heather : i do n't understand what just happened . luke : that 's because you do n't pay attention . you were supposed to wait for me to come back before you tried to kill anybody . heather : why are you treating me like i 'm the enemy here ? anything i 've done or tried to make happen was out of love for you . acting alone , trying to go after edward -- that was to protect you . in case you missed it , i 'm completely and totally in love with you . i thought you understood that . luke : well , let 's find out exactly what i do understand . i understand that you love me enough to kill edward . you love me enough to ice - pick detective duncan and frame skye for it . do you love me enough to kidnap my wife from the nut farm and use her for cover ? to frame her as a stalker and a killer ? was that for me , heather ? was it ? heather : yes ! yes , all right ! i did all that , and i 'd do even more , whatever it takes to get back to who we were that beautiful caribbean weekend . i 've never forgotten it . you ruined me for any other man . ok , let 's forget about edward 's money . let 's just run away together . we 'll make our own money . we 'll have a blast doing it . luke : there is only one thing that you can do for me , and that is tell me where my wife is . heather : i 'd start being a little nicer to me if i were you , or you 'll never see your precious laura again . [ scene_break ] sonny : why are you here ? alexis : it 's a legal matter . is this a bad time ? sonny : now is as good a time as any . sam : how 's kristina ? alexis : she 's much better , sam , thanks to you . sam : no need for any thanks , really . alexis : if there 's anything that i can do for you -- sam : i 'm fine . thank you . alexis : i checked the judge 's calendar . he has an opening in two days , so i moved up the hearing . sonny : alexis -- alexis : i did n't think you 'd have any objections . sonny : what 's the big rush ? you do n't trust your blackmailing tactics ? you getting a little nervous now that you , you know , you got to throw down with me ? alexis : i 've taken the liberty of preparing testimony for you . i 've left no room for improvisation , so i 'd like to go over it with you word for word . i need you to have the same mea culpa moment that you had with carly and her sons , and then i need you to come to the conclusion that kristina is safer with her mother and that her mother should retain full and permanent custody . no need for furtive looks . i 'm quite certain that sonny filled you in . jason : yeah , on how you 're blackmailing him to give up his daughter ? nice . alexis : if that look and that tone is supposed to make me feel like some sort of a monster , it does n't . i 'm acting in the best interest of kristina , and i 'm quite certain that if you were in my place you would be making this so - called blackmail look like child 's play . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i hope this works . lucky : well , if it does n't , i may call my dad . elizabeth : luke ? what 's he going to do ? lucky : he has more experience than anyone i know in creative ways to get out of tight situations , if you catch my drift . elizabeth : no -- no , no , lucky , that 's a terrible idea . you 'd be the first person that ric and mac look at if nikolas just suddenly disappears . you 're an officer of the law , lucky . it 's called a career . do n't jeopardize it . you 've done plenty for nikolas . just let it be enough . lucky : it would n't be just nikolas i 'd be helping . elizabeth : right . of course . emily 's involved , too . [ scene_break ] emily : we 're not mounting some elaborate scheme to run away . all we want to do is get married , mac . mac : it 's my understanding the judge already turned you down . emily : he did , but elizabeth suggested that we come to you . mac : i 'm flattered , but i 'm afraid i do n't have as much influence as you might think . emily : maybe you underestimate yourself , mac . i mean , everyone knows how fair and balanced you are . and if you made a personal appeal to the judge on our behalf , then he might at least consider changing his mind . helena did everything in her evil power to make sure that nikolas and i never became husband and wife . just please help us win this small victory , mac , and convince the judge to let us have a proper ceremony -- outside this place . mac : i ca n't make any promises , but i 'll ask . nikolas : thank you . emily : so much . mac : you can thank me when i 've done something . nikolas : listen , no matter what happens with all this , no matter where i go , i promise that i 'll love you forever , ok ? [ scene_break ] luke : where is laura ? heather : i realize you still love her , but laura 's gone , luke . she ca n't take in your love . she 's moved so far inside herself she ca n't be reached , and you should move on , too . let me make you happy . i know i can . is that so distasteful to you ?

[ scene_break ] ric : carly . thanks for coming down . carly : yeah , like i had a choice . ric : well , actually , you 're right ; you did n't , no more than your father did . carly : what does john have to do with this ? ric : well , this is your alibi provided by john durant for the night that my apartment went up in flames . now , what i want from you is your version of the events during that time , and if there appears even the slightest discrepancy between his story and yours , i 'm going to charge you with arson . ric : what time did you meet john durant ? carly : not sure . it was dark . 6 : 30 or so ? [ scene_break ] john : what time was it ? well , let 's see -- evening news was on , so it would make it , what , half past 6 : 00 .

[ scene_break ] carly : john invited me over to look at some old family photos . [ scene_break ] john : well , i 've been anxious to show carly more family photos . we talked about it and -- in particular , i wanted to show her her cousin rosemary and her great - aunt gwen . [ scene_break ] carly : my cousin rosemary lived in florida , so close to me we probably ran into each other without even knowing it . and my father -- he 's got an aunt gwen and she lives in chicago . she owns a restaurant there . [ scene_break ] john : it 's a jazz club and restaurant called the brassy buckle . it 's still there if you want to check it out .

[ sonny sighs ] sonny : you want me to tell you what i think went down ? meyer : yes . sonny : i think someone made copies of that file when the original went missing , right ? then they brought it -- someone brought it -- they brought it here so it would magically reappear . does that theory sound feasible to you ? meyer : well , i -- i do n't really know , because i did n't -- sonny : now , meyer , you better answer this very carefully . you gave that file to durant , did n't you ?

[ scene_break ] ric : i do n't get it . that file contains strong evidence and enough rico violations to put sonny away for the rest of his life , which solves the custody issue . alexis , no sane judge in the country is going to give kristina to somebody who 's facing sentencing in pentonville . why are you stalling me on this ? alexis : i think that he 's going to back down at the last minute , just like he did with carly and the boys . ric : well , i think you 're wrong . i mean , in that case , sonny still loved carly . it 's a different situation with you . alexis : he did what was best for the children , and i think this is all going to work out . ric : oh , my god . you have the file , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] luke : no sign of either one of them . edward : time to call the police . luke : no ! edward , no cops . heather 's future just blew up in her face . she 's got nothing left to lose now . if she 's cornered , two lives are in danger -- skye 's and laura 's . that 's a risk we ca n't take . [ scene_break ] heather : i could have killed you , you know ? i still might . after all , you blatantly tried to take luke away from me . skye : oh , luke was never yours to take , heather . heather : oh , he 's been mine since the day we met . he 's my husband . he loves me , only me . skye : did you say your husband ? heather : you must still be too groggy from the medication i gave you to realize who you 're talking to . i noticed you called me heather . skye : what else would i call you ? heather : try my name . skye , take a closer look . it 's me , laura . [ scene_break ] meyer : i swear , mr. corinthos , i did n't steal that file , and i never gave it to durant . he -- he just had it . i -- i do n't know how . but he handed it to me , and he said that if i put it back he 'd keep me away from any fallout . i 'm an accountant . my work is with numbers . i -- i was scared so i did what he wanted . i see now that i made a grave mistake , but at the time doing what durant wanted seemed like the only solution . sonny : i need to be able to trust the people that i employ , meyer . if i ca n't , they 're useless . meyer : please do n't kill me . there must be something i can do to make this right . sonny : yeah . we might be able to work something out , meyer . meyer : anything . you just name it , i 'll do it . sonny : you bring me proof of what you just told me -- that durant came here and stole that file and gave it to ric -- and i 'll let you live . meyer : thank you , sir . thank you . sonny : now get out of here . one more thing , meyer . if you think you can just disappear , right , i want you to remember something . bam -- no bullets . [ scene_break ] carly : look , i asked steven point - blank if you were capable of stealing the evidence from sonny and giving it to ric . john : carly , why ? why would i do something like that ? carly : so ric could prosecute sonny and i 'd never know that you were really behind it . look , steven told me that if i wanted to know the truth , i should ask you . so i 'm asking you , did you steal the file from sonny and give it to ric ? [ scene_break ] ric : so somehow after the fire you got into my filing cabinet and you took the evidence against sonny . you 're using it to blackmail him into giving up custody of kristina . alexis : that 's right . that 's exactly what i did . ric : you need to give me that file , alexis . alexis : no . ric : no ? alexis : no . what if you ca n't make the charges stick ? ric : oh , well , thanks for the vote of confidence . alexis : this is n't a personal attack . this is from bitter experience . you are not the first person that thought they had sonny cornered only for him to walk out of prison and back into his life . if he manages to maneuver his way out of this , he will take kristina . but if i have that file , he understands that he needs to cooperate , and if he does n't , i will hand the file over to you . there is n't a doubt in my mind that he would n't give up kristina to stay out of prison . ric : what did you promise him in return ? alexis : once i get full custody , the files disappear . however , i have no intention of honoring that agreement . ric : what ? alexis : once kristina is safe , i 'll hand the file to you , and you can prosecute him to the full extent of the law . ric : you realize you 're talking about open betrayal against sonny , right ? alexis : i understand that . ric : do you really ? do you really know what you 're risking here ? alexis : i will risk my life , but i wo n't risk my daughter 's . you want me to be fair ? you want me to be ethical ? do you think sonny 's going to be fair ? do you think the courts are going to be ethical ? i need to do whatever is necessary to keep kristina safe from sonny 's world , and my chances of doing that improve immeasurably if he is out of the picture for good . [ next_on ] emily : i 'm getting married today . nikolas : i 've never been more sure of anything in my life . alexis : i just want this to be over . ric : i think there 's a way to make it go faster . john : your backstabbing did n't work . carly believes me . carly : he did not steal the file .

as heather is telling the comatose edward how much she regrets all this , luke stops her , hitting her with all the accusations he has against her . she admits it all , adding that he will never see laura again if he is not nice . steve admits that john 's motives began badly , then changed , but carly is too mad to believe the last half . on her way to ream him out , a cop arrives to take her for questioning . nik wants to escape jail , but emily is afraid that it is too risky , so they ask mac to help at least let them marry . when edward and luke threaten heather , she takes skye hostage . thanks to mac , the wedding will be wednesday . they can have some alone time afterwards , but it will be guarded all the way . sam gives away the baby stuff . sonny tries to track down the file in question . carly and her father 's stories match , so ric 's case is a wash . during a diatribe against laura , heather has a flip out and claims to be laura . alexis tells ric she has the file , but wants it for blackmail , then betrayal .

[ scene_break ] robin : nikolas is avoiding me in the polite way that he does . sonny : well , maybe nikolas just needs to grieve just like all the spencers . do you think you can give him that without feeling like it 's your fault ? robin : well , they would n't have to grieve if i had n't given them false hope to begin with . sonny : oh , no , no , no , no . it was not false -- i was at the wedding . laura looked so happy and beautiful and her children got to do something they did n't get to do the first time when she slipped away , which was say goodbye and tell her how much they loved her and hear her say it back . you are a doctor . this kind of job takes -- it takes risks . and this was a big one , but you ca n't say you were better off not trying with laura . robin : i do n't know , honestly . sonny : ok , you got your parents back from the dead . you think it was better off if they did n't come back ? what if stone just walked in right now , right ? and he said to you , `` i got one night with you . `` would you send him away ? robin : i do n't know if he 'd even recognize me anymore . [ robin sighs ] robin : i keep thinking about what a disappointment i 'd be to him . sonny : why -- because he was so perfect ? no one loved stone more than i did , and you know that , right ? and he suffered and he broke our hearts , but you know what ? he was just a kid . he was n't a saint ; he could n't predict the future . hell , he was the one who said that i 'd end up with brenda and look at -- look how that turned out , right ? robin : yeah . sonny : but you know what ? you turned out so much better than stone could ever imagine . and i know that he would be disappointed if -- if he knew that you did n't let yourself be happy . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : is something wrong ? skye : oh , no . i 'm just here for the endowment meeting . i only meant for you to drop by if you had a chance , but since you 're here , i -- i wo n't -- i 'm going to -- lorenzo : what is it ? skye : i 'm concerned about you and sonny keeping the peace . lorenzo : sonny 's too volatile to predict . the shootout that killed diego is proof of that . skye : but if you do n't make any first moves -- lorenzo : i made you a promise , skye . i wo n't move against sonny as long as he does n't move against me . [ scene_break ] lucky : hey , you mentioned i should n't trust lansing . can you get specific ? det . rodriguez : uh -- why ? what 's up ? lucky : well , nothing yet , but he made a point of assigning me to jason morgan and i need to know why . maxie : ah , lucky ? i did n't know you were going to be here . are you back at work already ? lucky : yeah , i 'm trying . maxie : well , i came by to see mac , but as long as you 're here , we could talk about our baby . [ scene_break ] sam : look , i 'm not answering your questions , so from now on , you can just talk to my lawyer . ric : oh , right , yeah -- alexis , a lady who 's not well enough to really defend anybody . sam : well , the idea of beating you in court should make her feel so much better . ric : she 's not going to be able to get through her opening statement , sam . she could barely get through a meeting with me just now without getting dizzy . if alexis represents you , it could kill her . sam : alexis believes she can do it . ric : yeah , well , i 'm telling you different . now , if you love your mother as much as you say you do and you want to see her be able to raise those two little girls , you will tell alexis that you want a different attorney . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : oh , jason . jason : i 'm fine . elizabeth : hey , did you find spinelli ? jason : no . alcazar 's men grabbed him . they probably hid him someplace till they find out what he knows . elizabeth : well , then there 's nothing you can do . jason : well , we 're watching alcazar 's property right now . elizabeth : jason , you 're bleeding . [ scene_break ] dillon : hey . georgie : hey . dillon : are you working ? georgie : no . i am covering for maxie . she said it was some kind of an emergency , but i highly doubt it . it 's probably some stupid lucky drama . what do you need ? dillon : i do n't want you to get mad . um -- georgie : but -- dillon : ok , was lulu in your study group ? georgie : i knew you could n't drop this . dillon : no , i -- i 'm -- this is serious . marquez is going on and on about -- about how she got involved , and now he 's disappeared and she 's disappeared -- georgie : yeah , dillon , involved in what ? dillon : i do n't -- i do n't know . i thought that maybe if you had seen her -- georgie : try calling . dillon : it goes -- it goes straight to voicemail . i 've tried . georgie : then maybe you need to wait for lulu to call you . dillon : geor -- geor -- georgie -- georgie : what ? dillon : i get that you 're upset , ok ? georgie : do you ? dillon : but this is not a stranger , this is lulu . this is our lulu . you do n't care if she 's in trouble ? georgie : dillon , i care about a lot of things . i care that my friend diego was shot and killed . and i cared enough about you to stay away from him when you told me to not get involved . now the tables are turned . can you do the same with lulu ? can you stay out of whatever mess she 's in ? [ scene_break ] lulu : what are you doing ? spinelli : uh -- looking for an exit ? lulu : alcazar is not going to hurt us . spinelli : that 's a blond moment . lulu : you do n't know him . spinelli : yeah , right , it 's all cool because you were tight with his dead son . lulu : well , partly , but mostly because his girlfriend , skye , the mother of his baby , happens to care about me . spinelli : now i 'm listening . lulu : skye really , really loved my dad , but -- well , they dated for a while , but he was actually married to someone else for part of the time , and -- i mean , they did n't love each other , but it was -- he was kind of afraid to get into a relationship with skye . spinelli : you 're -- you 're making my head hurt , so -- lulu : all right . if alcazar messes with me , and skye finds out about it , she 's going to drop him like a bad habit . he will not have access to his baby girl . he is not going to risk it , so i 'm not going to worry . spinelli : yeah -- wake up , blond one . this is n't about love or babies or the easter bunny . alcazar is a twisted homicidal gangster . now , i have information that could bring his empire down . now , he does n't want me to talk to the feds , and he knows i 've been squawking to you . so what part of `` we 're dead `` do n't you get ? [ scene_break ] epiphany : mr. whitney 's stable . patrick : excellent . epiphany : and no , dr. scorpio has n't called . patrick : thank you , epiphany . patrick : hey , robin , it 's me . i have news about mr. whitney that you 'll -- i think you 'll want to hear . so call me back , all right ? bye . sonny : i just spoke to robin . patrick : how is she ? sonny : it 's hard to tell . i tried to get some things out of her , but -- i 'm pretty sure she needs your help . [ scene_break ] robin 's voice : it 's really dark ! [ stone laughs ] stone 's voice : you know what ? i do n't even see the bottom . it 's down there somewhere . it 's all yours . robin : great . stone : ok , help me up . wow . robin : i love you . stone : i love you , robin . robin 's voice : i hope he 's as happy as he was that night here . after that , he took luke 's advice and made that wish list . you know , he did almost everything on that list . some of them were so silly , but it made him feel good to be like , `` yes , i meant to , and i did it . `` sonny : i know which one he felt best about getting . this one . robin : that 's so i would n't forget him . robin 's voice : as if . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you know , if i had the proper facility to do the sutures , it would n't have torn open like this . jason : i 'm sorry for , you know , putting you through all this trouble . elizabeth : well , just be glad you 're too old for a time - out . jason : you mean , like what kids get ? elizabeth : yeah , you know , like when cameron does something that he 's not supposed to , and he does it anyway , and even though he says , `` i 'm sorry , mommy , `` he has to suffer the consequences . and in your case , i should call the ambulance and let the police find you . that 's the natural consequence for hurting yourself and getting in trouble , is n't it ? jason : or you could know a really fantastic nurse who takes great care of you . you know what ? there 's no way i could live up to your standards of discipline . it 's probably good i did n't turn out to be the father of your -- your baby . [ scene_break ] sam : i do n't buy your sudden concern about alexis . the only thing you 're worried about is her defeating you in court . ric : it 's true that alexis and i are professional adversaries . it 's also true that we 're getting a divorce . but she is also the mother of my child . i do n't want molly to grow up without her mother . you and i both know what that 's like , sam , ok ? look how we turned out . look , it 's ruined your life . i mean , now you 've hurt kristina and molly , and -- sam : me ? you know what , ric ? go to hell ! ric : oh , come on . we both ruined this family -- sam : we both what ? what do you want ? what are you trying to manipulate me into doing for you this time ? ric : you know , if your selfishness leaves those two little girls without their mother , that 's on your head , not mine . [ scene_break ] maxie : this is n't fair . lucky : no , what is n't fair is you showing up at my parents ' wedding uninvited . maxie : lucky , i thought your mom would like to know about her grandchild . i did n't expect to be treated like yesterday 's trash . we are having a child together . why wo n't you let yourself love it ? lucky : i will love it . and i promise , i will be a good father to it . [ scene_break ] patrick : mr. whitney 's out of i.c.u . robin : congratulations . patrick : i get the feeling this is going to be the high point of my evening . maybe i should just leave while i 'm ahead . robin : you knew from the beginning that the experiment with laura was a mistake . patrick : it was n't a mistake . robin : you know , do n't -- just do me a favor , do n't patronize me . patrick : i 'm not . laura 's case went exactly the way legrasse predicted . you gave laura time that she would have never had otherwise . robin : you saw sonny , did n't you ? yeah , that 's why you 're here . patrick : i 'm here because it 's where i thought i should be . thought you might need me . [ music plays ] robin : there used to be a bridge over the gorge right over there . that 's where we scattered stone 's ashes . today 's the anniversary of his death . patrick : i 'm not sure i 'm up to competing with a ghost . robin : is that what you 're doing ? patrick : well , he was your first love . those seem to look really good in retrospect . robin : it was really good . singer : i stand here praying patrick : robin , you 're a brilliant doctor . from everything you 've told me , stone was a street kid . so if we 're being honest , then tell me , if he had n't have died , do you really think that you two would still be together ? you , the great researcher , and stone , the what ? roadie for a rock ' n ' roll band ? dealing black jack on luke 's boat ? robin : you know , you never met him . you have no right to speculate on what his life would have been . patrick : i 'm not speculating . i know how much you loved him . i would never take that away from you , but i 'm just trying to be a realist . robin : ok , well , the reality is , we will never know what stone was supposed to be , a plumber or the mayor of port charles , because he got cheated out of what should have been his life . and laura got cheated out of hers . and you and i can stand here , and we can feel bad about it . but the reality is , i deceived that family . and i never want to do that again . singer : the way you move [ scene_break ] michael : what 's wrong ? sonny : huh ? well , i was hanging out with a friend of mine tonight , right ? michael : yeah . sonny : and -- she 's having a few problems and it got me thinking how lucky i am to have you and morgan in my life . because even when i 'm down , right -- michael : mm - hmm . sonny : feeling a little lost , you guys remind me how happy i am that i 'm alive . singer : and talk about you skye : excuse me ? max said that you were in here . sonny : yeah , i 'm a little busy with my children . morgan : yeah . skye : but what i have to say affects your children . and mine . [ scene_break ] alexis : there 's epiphany . let 's say hello . hello . epiphany : hey . alexis : we 're here to see dr. winters . epiphany : i 'll let her know you 're here . alexis : would you do me a favor ? could you watch kristina just for a minute ? epiphany : sure . alexis : hey , you . will you stay here with epiphany just for a little bit ? i 'll be right back , ok ? good girl . i know what you 're doing . you 're going to petition the court , saying that i 'm too weak to represent sam . and you 're going to get my oncologist to back you up . try all you want , it 's not going to happen . [ scene_break ] lucky : you know what ? you should go see mac if that 's why you 're here . elizabeth : you guys are having a baby . you 're going to have to meet from time to time . lucky : thanks . you know what ? why are you here ? elizabeth : sam has been worried about kristina , and lainey asked me to give her an update . lucky : well , sam 's in interrogation one . can we talk later ? elizabeth : yeah , i 'll try . maxie : you know , if you were really happy with elizabeth , you never would have turned to me or the pills . and elizabeth just does n't have it in her to forgive you . as soon as you realize that , the sooner you will realize what we could have together . [ scene_break ] dillon : georgie , i can say that i 'm worried about lulu , and it has nothing to do with my feelings for you . georgie : yeah , dillon , i get it , we 're here . now , please report lulu as a missing person so we can go . hi . lucky : if you 're looking for maxie , she 's with mac . georgie : no , we 're not . dillon : no , we 're not . we 're here to report a missing person . we ca n't -- we ca n't find lulu , and -- and we ran into one of her professors . he made a big deal about her getting involved in something she was n't supposed to , and now we ca n't find either of them . lucky : lulu 's been having trouble with dealing with what 's happened to our mother , so if she 's not around , she 's just -- she 's trying to deal with it in her own way . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : they think i 'm here to update you on kristina . sam : but that 's not true ? elizabeth : no , i 'm here because i need your help . [ scene_break ] patrick : you used to be so relentlessly optimistic . what happened ? robin : i guess i just got burned out on failure . patrick : for god 's sakes , robin , it 's medicine . it 's an imperfect science . robin : you 're right . i think i 'm going to take a page from your book and become a realist . i 'm no longer going to give my patients false hope because , well , it 's just not worth it . patrick : how did i manage to fall in love with you right when you 're about to go through this crisis of faith ? robin : it 's not too late to back out . patrick : i 'm not quitting on you . i 'm not going to let you quit on yourself . not without a fight . [ scene_break ] dr. trent : i can assure you , your daughter 's name never came up in this conversation . your husband was simply asking about your health . alexis : another couple of minutes , he would have produced an affidavit for you to sign . dr. trent : is it true you 're having dizzy spells ? alexis : nice . ric : just worried about you , alexis . alexis : i know what you 're doing . you 're going to show that i 'm too weak to represent sam , and then you 're going to say that i 'm not capable of taking care of molly . ric : ok , i realize that you need to hate me . you 'll use any excuse to vilify me , but even you can not deny that you have stage - two cancer . you are not strong enough to go through weeks of challenging , complex litigation . so you tell me -- is it really worth sacrificing your life just to beat me ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . i brought you some takeout . jason : thank you . elizabeth : any word from stan ? jason : no , noth -- [ phone rings ] jason : stan , what do you got ? sam : jason , it 's me . jason : are you all right ? sam : yeah , i -- i ca n't talk long . elizabeth was able to get this phone in , so -- if the guards -- they come and see me , then i 'll get in really bad trouble . jason : i 'm -- i 'm going to get you out of this . sam : just please , do n't take any crazy risks for me . i can get through this as long as i know you 're safe . jason : i am going to prove that you 're innocent . i love you . sam : i love you , too . [ scene_break ] skye : lorenzo is devastated about losing his son . not that you could blame him . i know you two are very close to waging an all - out war against each other . but lorenzo has promised me , he wo n't be the one to seek revenge . sonny : i 'm sure you 're happy to hear that . skye : sonny , i 'm asking you . not for me , and certainly not for lorenzo , but for our children , yours and mine . i am begging you to keep the peace . sonny : it 's not the first time alcazar has claimed he wants peace . but you know what ? for whatever reason , he always breaks the truce . skye : well , he 's never had a baby daughter before . he 's never had to bury a son . it 's changed him . he 's not interested in killing you or anyone else . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : sorry this is taking so long . lulu : well , i need to get home . people are going to worry . lorenzo : not tonight . i know this is frightening , but you 'll be home tomorrow . and in the meantime , we will try to make you as comfortable as possible . i 'm truly sorry to put you through this . lulu : see ? we 'll be fine . spinelli : yeah . well , hold your hurrah , susie sunshine . let 's see what he tells his own guys . lulu : wait . when did you do that ? spinelli : about the time you started getting optimistic about our chances of getting out of this .
