Part 2



Lulu: Johnny Zacchara has made it very clear to me on more than one occasion that he wants nothing to do with me.

Luke: And what do you want?

Lulu: I already got my Christmas wish. You had the surgery for me. It would be very unfair if I went out and got myself shot or something.

Luke: I hear things are heating up between Corinthos and the Zaccharas. So I have two words for you -- "lay low," and don't get involved with anything like what's standing in the doorway right now.

Logan: Mr. Spencer. Good to see you feeling better.

Luke: Ah, thank you, Mr. Logan.

Logan: Can I talk to you for just a second?

Lulu: Sure.

Luke: Hey, hey, hey, hey. If you're going to abandon me for this neanderthal, the least you can do is get me something to ease the pain, like a nice, big chunk of Barbara Jean's coffeecake.

Lulu: Oh. Well, a very little, little piece.

Luke: Oh, I'm happy for crumbs these days. Life is reduced to crumbs. Ah, good -- thought she'd never leave.

Lulu: Forget something.

Luke: What'd you forget, dear?

Lulu: You know what -- oh.

Luke: How'd that get in there?

Lulu: Hmm.

Luke: And those, too --

Lulu: Yeah.

Luke: Hey, what -- does it -- I still get my coffeecake, don't I?

[Door closes]

Luke: Oh, drat.

Logan: Listen, I got to go talk to somebody about something. Can I come back and meet you in maybe an hour or something?

Lulu: Yeah, sure. I mean, do you want me to bring you back something from Kelly's?

Logan: Huh. No, just you. Ok? Yeah?

Lulu: Ok.

Coop: Hey.

Maxie: Hi.

Coop: Hey, are you ok?

Maxie: Yeah. Um -- I just needed a place to hide for a minute. This is good.

Coop: Well, I have to get down to the station, but I can call in.

Maxie: No, no. I'm going to be fine. Uh -- I really want you to find out who killed my sister.

Coop: I will, all right? I promise.

Spinelli: You know, wise Georgie would want you to be more careful.

Maxie: About what?

Spinelli: Look, The Jackal's already said too much, but I -- I just wish that --

Maxie: Spit it out, Spinelli.

Spinelli: When your loyal little sister needed my protection, I was negligent to my utter and eternal dismay. She confided things in me.

Maxie: You must be talking about her idea that Coop was the text-message killer.

Spinelli: Well, had she confided other things in me, she might still be alive today.

Maxie: Or maybe if you had the brains enough to realize how my sister felt about you, or maybe if my mom ever took five minutes to give a damn. Maybe if I wasn't so self-absorbed!

Spinelli: Um, this is most unwise. It will not bring wise Georgie back to any of --

Maxie: We have no right to go on acting like my sister did not die! She laid there, Spinelli, broken! Everything should be broken!

Lucky: Hey, hey, hey, hey, Maxie, Maxie --

Maxie: No! Get away from me!

Lucky: Hey, Maxie, Maxie -- shh.

Maxie: I just want to see my sister!

Lucky: Shh.

Maxie: I just want to see my sister!

Lucky: Shh, it's ok.

Mac: We've got something. You got the warrant? Bring him in.

Det. Harper: All right.

Felicia: Who?

Mac: Johnny Zacchara.

Trevor: We don't need to control Moreau. Only we want him to be our ally.

Johnny: My father would've made him our pawn.

Trevor: John, you don't get it, do you? There is so much more here than you understand.

Johnny: You're not in control anymore, Trevor. I am. And I'll handle Moreau the way I want to. I'm not sure we're doing business with the guy, anyway.

Trevor: We have to.

Johnny: No. You just want to so you can have more leverage and revenge against Sonny. I'm not sure I want to do business that way, either.

Trevor: Sonny is the enemy.

Johnny: Your enemy.

Trevor: Oh, god, are you green!

Johnny: I made it this far.

Trevor: Johnny, only because I saved your ass many times. Now, listen to me -- you're not your father and mother's little boy anymore. They're gone, and I am the only one who is left.

Johnny: I don't see anyone stopping you from walking out. Something tells me when those bullets start flying, you'll find yourself a nice, safe place to hide. Now, me -- I'm going to stand up and fight whoever I have to.

Diane: Geoffrey Lambere.

Sonny: Who?

Diane: The man you manhandled at the gallery last night?

Sonny: Yeah?

Diane: He has filed for and obtained a temporary restraining order.

Sonny: So what?

Diane: So that means you cannot be within a 50-block radius of him, his residences, or his workplace.

Sonny: Well, that's easy. I just -- he stays away from me, I stay away from him, and everything's cleared up, great.

Kate: No, Geoffrey lives in Soho and his office is on the Upper East Side.

Diane: Which means that the entire island of Manhattan is off-limits.

Sonny: So fight it, Diane.

Diane: Geoffrey Lambere is very well-connected and I have a plane to catch. As I'm sure Kate told you, your attorney has been nominated for litigator of the year.

Sonny: Wow. I'll settle for you being litigator of the day.

Diane: When can I see my drop-dead-gorgeous dress?

Kate: Oh, Diane, Clarice had it sent to your home in Port Charles, along with --

Diane: Oh, well, that puts me in a bit of a time crunch. All right, let's go.

Sonny: Uh -- I got to go now?

Diane: Unless you would prefer to be accompanied by members of the New York City police department in their drab blues. I managed to convince a judge to allow me to escort you beyond the city limits.

Sonny: Can you at least give us a minute?

Diane: Fine, one minute.

Sonny: Yeah.

Diane: Thank you again, Ms. Howard.

Kate: You're welcome, Ms. Miller. Good luck.

Diane: Kate, luck has nothing to do with this.

[Door opens and closes]

Sonny: I'm sorry.

Kate: I'm sorry we didn't get our day.

Sonny: Yeah? I know. Come here.

Diane: Time's up.

Jason: I can't say what Sonny's going to do about the Zaccharas.

Carly: Someone tried to shoot Sonny at the Metro Court. I know he's going to do something.

Jason: We are going to keep you and the kids safe.

Max: Jason, I --

Epiphany: I need you to find out who killed my boy.

Ric: That package came for you, by the way.

Alexis: Ah! I knew she wouldn't disappoint me.

Ric: So where's Kristina? Is she not coming out to say goodbye?

Alexis: No, she won't come out of her room, so I had to say goodbye to her there. Isn't it a little early for the hormones to kick in?

Ric: Yeah.

Alexis: Consider yourself warned, buddy.

Ric: I know, I know. Well, listen, you -- come on, baby -- let's say bye to mama. You have a good trip, ok?

Alexis: So you're not going to say anything about Jerry?

Ric: Nope, nope. Already discussed it -- asked and answered.

Alexis: Ok. Good, because I walked in on you and Skye doing --

Ric: Mm-hmm.

Alexis: Whatever you were doing, and if you want to do whatever you were doing with Skye, it's really none of my business, so -- I mean, if we're going to co-parent, we need to trust each other's judgment.

Ric: Agreed. So in case the girls and I are asleep, when you win this thing, I just want to offer my congratulations in advance.

Alexis: Don't, don't --

Ric: No, you're a shoo-in. Hey, look how many times you beat me. And don't worry about anything. I think I got everything handled around here, so you don't have to call five, six, seven times from the airport.

Alexis: Ok. But my cell phone will be on all the time.

Ric: Good, but they're not going to hold the plane, even for litigator of the year. Give mama kisses.

Alexis: I have to say "bye-bye."

Ric: That's a girl. Yeah?

Alexis: I'll see you later? Love you, love you.

Ric: Ooh! You got some sugar. You got some sugar.

Alexis: Love you, I love you.

Ric: Get going, get out of here.

Alexis: All right, all right, I'm going, I'm going.

Ric: You'll be late.

Alexis: I love you. I love you, Kristina! Even though you say you hate me, know you love me, too!

Ric: Good luck -- you're not going to need it.

Alexis: You might.

Ric: I'm missing her, right? Of course not -- we're going to have a great time, see? Do you see that? You see the fire over there, baby?

Kristina: Where's mommy?

Molly: Mommy --

Ric: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Mommy left -- yeah, that's right. Hi, sweetheart. She -- I'm sorry, she just left.

Kristina: I'm hungry.

Ric: Ok. Um -- what -- what do you want?

Kristina: Waffles.

Ric: Uh -- all right, yeah, I can make waffles.

Kristina: I want my daddy's waffles.

Jerry: Non, non --

[Jerry speaks French]

Jerry: [French accent] I've managed to have our boats tread water for a few days, but if the Canadian coast guard spots them, it's pretty obvious that we're not fishing for tuna.

Man: So?

Jerry: So -- so I think it's time for us to hook our young Mr. Zacchara.

[Phone rings]

Trevor: Yeah?

Jerry: It's Moreau. I'm considering making alternative arrangements.

Trevor: No, not necessary.

Jerry: Well, if the young junior Zacchara's unprofessional behavior is any indication, I'm afraid we're going to have to take our business elsewhere. You see, the Corinthos organization is apparently more stable, both fiscally and mentally.

Trevor: Are you kidding me? Fiscally? Come on. Corinthos doesn't move your type of product -- we do. We'll sweeten the deal.

Johnny: How's this for a sweet deal?

Jerry: I'm listening.

Johnny: You need us, we don't need you. I'll call you when I want to.

Trevor: That was incredibly stupid.

Det. Harper: Johnny Zacchara? We need you to come with us.

Trevor: What is this about?

Det. Harper: The murder of the police commissioner's daughter.

Jason: Max, it's ok.

Epiphany: I'm going to take you at your word -- that Stanford wasn't working for you when he was killed. And Elizabeth says that you and my son were friends.

Elizabeth: Jason would never put anyone he cared about in harm's way.

Spinelli: Stone Cold -- I see you're entertaining a most eclectic gathering.

Jason: Not now, Spinelli.

Epiphany: "Stone Cold." That's how my heart felt as I listened to my baby's voice as he was about to die. Someone ran him off that road, someone from your world -- someone that's out of my reach. But you can get your hands on him. I want you to find out who killed my boy.

Spinelli: Uh -- formidable Nurse Epiphany? Stone Cold and his most humble servant, The Jackal, will do everything in their power to bring that heinous fiend to justice.

Epiphany: I'm going to hold you to that -- both of you.

Spinelli: Uh -- I'll be outside.

Elizabeth: Thank you for seeing her.

Jason: You're welcome.

Carly: Interesting that Elizabeth showed up for all of that. Don't you think?

[Door opens]

Max: Boss, you're back just in time. We got a situation.

Sonny: What have we got?

Jason: Hey.

Elizabeth: Hi.

Jason: Um -- I'm actually here to see Epiphany. I was going to tell her that I'm going to look into this thing with Stan, but she should know that she might not like what I find.

Elizabeth: Well, she's on break right now, but she's due back any minute. So if you'd like to wait -- guess there's no harm in you standing there, is there?

Flight attendant: Can I take that for you?

Diane: Oh, heavens, no. No, considering the airline industry's abysmal reputation for losing passengers' luggage, this is far too valuable to trust to an airline employee. No offense. No, I'm sure I'll just be able to make room for it on this seat next to me. Excuse me. Oh, yeah -- you see that? That is why it was so important for me to make this plane -- I am nominated for litigator of the year.

Alexis: So am I.

Lucky: I brought her down here before anyone called the police. I talked to Mike -- he's not pressing charges.

Mac: Thank you.

Felicia: Thank you.

Coop: Hey, I heard. Do you need anything?

Johnny: Somebody want to tell me what the hell this is all about?

Mac: New evidence. Even though she's dead, it looks like Georgie's going to be able to identify the text-message killer.

Trevor: Listen, I need to apologize to you for the kid's behavior.

Jerry: [French accent] I'm a firm believer that children need to be disciplined. And the best way for them to behave is actually to take away one of their favorite things. Don't you think?

[Muffled screams]

>> On the next "General Hospital" --

Mac: Forensics found skin cells under Georgie's fingernails.
Jason: We can meet at the safe house later.
Sam: Go ahead, go sneak off and see him.
Carly: What do you want?

Sam: It's about Jason -- and Jake's father.
