Sonny: And while you're at it, I want you to find out how the Zacchara organization got itself so deep inside our business and political operation while our people did what? Shine their shoes, file their nails -- ok, you know what I want you guys to do? Get out on the street, figure out why everybody's falling asleep on the job. Do it yesterday -- get out of here. And you know what? Tell Jason I need to see him now.
Luke: Sounds like you need some help, whip these snot-noses into shape.
Sonny: Huh -- what are you talking about?
Luke: I'm talking about me having to make my way in the world again, and you needing me to kick some butt. I'm looking to be put on the payroll, pal.
Claudia: None of these do me any good. It's not what I asked for, so go get what I want and don't come back until you have it.
Mr. Vaughn: Ahem.
Trevor: Vaughn has been a loyal and a useful employee for a long time. Please don't talk to him like that.
Claudia: Loyal and useful -- to whom?
Trevor: To the Zacchara empire.
Claudia: You mean the Trevor Lansing living trust?
Trevor: Are you losing your cool because of what happened at the meeting with the five families last night? Claudia: No, I am trying to find the right information to put Sonny Corinthos where I want him.
Trevor: Well, with the looks that I caught, where would be more appropriate than the nearest hotel bedroom?
Kate: I have two major designers who are committed to developing and promoting lines specifically for the working woman.
Jax: Hmm.
Kate: And you couldn't care less.
Jax: No, no, no, I do. I -- I care, I just -- I'm sorry. I'm just -- I keep thinking about your secret past as -- as Connie.
Kate: Um, Jax? Don't make me regret having told you.
Jax: No, it's just -- it's what you haven't told me that's got my mind racing, you see. But that's ok, you know? I'm sure if I throw enough money out there, I can probably find that out on my own.
Kate: I'm sure that you can, Jax. And if you do, two things will happen -- our friendship will be over, and Kate Howard will have to disappear as quickly and efficiently as Connie Falconeri.
Sam: How did you get past the guard?
Jason: It doesn't matter.
Sam: It does to me.
Jason: I just want to ask you a few questions about the hit-and-run.
Sam: Why, Jason? Why do you care who ran me down?
Elizabeth: I don't even know how to say this. So much is going to be destroyed, so much is going to come out.
Lucky: What are you talking about?
Elizabeth: Lucky, I think -- I think I'm responsible.
Lucky: Responsible for what?
Elizabeth: For Sam's hit-and-run.
Kate: Jax, I am begging you -- leave this alone.
Jax: What happened all those years ago that's scaring you so much? What could possibly be so bad that you can't even tell Sonny?
Kate: You're just going to have to trust me, ok? It is something that has to stay buried and if you can't do that, then we're done here.
Jax: Kate, maybe I can help.
Kate: No, Jax, you can't help. This is mine to shoulder, this is mine to deal with it, and it's mine to keep locked away.
Jax: Ok, fine. If that's what you want -
Kate: It's what I need.
Jax: It's what you want. Ok, but if you ever change your mind -
Kate: I won't.
Jax: Ok, ok, ok.
Kate: So -- what do you think of my ideas?
Jax: I love your ideas, I really do. I love your ideas and I also like the fact that you're going to make Port Charles the home base, which will keep costs down.
Kate: And having you as a major investor will do wonders for the project, not to mention me. I don't see how I can lose.
Jax: Unless, of course, you're doing it to win Sonny back.
Luke: Bringing me in does nothing but help you. I mean, I'm a grownup. I'm not some of these punks that you're running with right now. You know where I've been, you know who I am, and you know I'm no mole sent in to bust you by the feds. You know I know all the angles and the anglers. I know my way in and out of a tight situation. I know my way around a gun. And long ago, my -- my shade of morality turned as gray as my liver. This could do nothing but help you, Sonny. And I got some ideas that could put you hip-deep in cash.
Sonny: I know who -- who you are, Luke, and I know what you were capable of.
Luke: I "were"?
Sonny: I -- I'm not trying to be indelicate here.
Luke: Oh, no, Sonny, don't do that. You're known for your delicacy.
Sonny: How long have you been out of the hospital?
Luke: Long enough to get my sea legs back.
Sonny: And how many heart attacks have you had?
Luke: The number doesn't matter, man. What matters is I survived them.
Sonny: What are you supposed to be doing in the world?
Luke: I'm supposed to be sitting on a shelf gathering dust. And I'm about to explode, and if I do -- I can't answer for the casualties.
Sonny: Things have changed in the business, Luke. There's a code -- nobody gives a damn anymore. The world has gone to hell, everybody's expendable, everybody's a target -- women, children. You work for me, you got -- you got to -- you got to be at the speed of light.
Luke: And what am I? Like dial-up? All right. I can see you've written my walking obituary like everybody else. You think I'm too feeble to play cops and robbers anymore. Well, I can tell you I'm too damn stubborn to take a desk job, so I don't know where that leaves me -- just staring into the barrel of another dark, lonely night.
Sonny: You know, Luke, I'm not sure. I'm not sure where it leaves any of us, but I can tell you right now -- it's getting real dangerous out there.
Trevor: That meeting last night with the five families was about business, not your own sexual pleasure.
Claudia: What's the matter, Trevors -- you're not getting any?
[Trevor chuckles]
Trevor: Not to worry, toots. I never confuse my sexual satisfaction with business. You want to run this? You want to be head of the family? Go ahead, do it. But just don't treat it like it was your first night at a public pick-up joint.
Claudia: Who do you think cleaned up the mess in Sydney and put the Cavazzi organization back in the red in Miami? You think that was uncle Rudy? Unlike you, I'm tired of working behind the scenes. I'm here and I'm driving. So until you understand who you're really dealing with, you get in the back seat.
Trevor: And I am telling you that your father would not want this.
Claudia: I don't know what my father would want. But I'm going to find that out.
Trevor: Well, it's too bad that he's insane.
Claudia: Well, guilt will do that to you. The man's got a lot of things to feel guilty about, but I'll tell you something -- I betcha I can still figure out what's going on in that maze of a mind of his. You never know what you might find out.
Elizabeth: You know I've been having nightmares about the fire and losing Jake and seeing Sam with Jake and -- and I haven't been sleeping. I shouldn't have left the hospital when I did -
Lucky: Stop. I know what you're afraid of. You're worried that the lie about Jake will come out -- well, it won't. All right, there's no reason that story will see the light of day.
Elizabeth: There's more.
Lucky: No, it is not your fault. I'm the one who dragged Sam's lies out of you. I'm the one who got in a fight with her and threw her out of the house and put her in the right path of the text message killer. The guy, he played cat and mouse with her, he attacked her, and she wound up running out in front of a car. So, I mean, do you see that this has nothing to do with you? I'm just not sure I can say the same thing about Jason.
Jason: What did you see the night of the accident?
Sam: I don't have to tell you anything. And there's actually no point in telling you anything since you're not going to believe me any more than anyone else does anyway.
Jason: Why not?
Sam: Why -- why not? I don't know, Jason. Maybe because I'm the great liar, the great manipulator, the big bad witch -- remember?
Jason: The accident report says that you were thrown to the right.
Sam: How would you know what the accident report says? I'm pretty sure that's illegal, isn't it? Oh, wait, that's right -- I mean, using poor Spinelli to do your spying and prying and -- and breaking into private polices files is nothing compared to the crimes and cover-ups that you and Sonny commit. Is Elizabeth riding shotgun yet like I used to? Or is she still afraid of her own shadow?
Jason: You were struck by the passenger's side of the car. What -- what did you see?
Sam: What do you think I saw? I saw -- I saw headlights, Jason. I was thrown in the middle of the road, two -- two headlights. I was too busy fighting off the text message killer. Oh, what's the matter? Is this the first time the all-knowing, almighty Jason Morgan is hearing about this? Or are you just waiting around here for him to finish me off?
[Door closes]
[Knock on door]
Alexis: Hey!
Diane: Hi.
Alexis: Hi!
[Alexis chuckles]
Alexis: What are you doing here?
Diane: Prego -- the working woman's friend.
Alexis: It's heart smart, ok?
Diane: So is what's in here.
Alexis: I'm sure it is.
[Diane chuckles]
Alexis: All right, so what's going on here? Why are you here?
Diane: Well, I have decided that you need to relax and take your mind off of Sam.
Alexis: I don't think that's going to happen.
Diane: Ok. Well, what if I tell you that I am taking on the case of Joe smith, bomb-wielding mechanic, versus general hospital?
Alexis: I am going to say to you that I don't want to talk about this right now.
Diane: Yeah.
Alexis: I don't.
Diane: And when I am done, not only will Joe smith be a free man, but General Hospital is going to have to pay him so much that he will be able to buy his garage back and build his own maternity ward to watch his child being born. First step -- the filing for his bail hearing.
Alexis: You know you don't stand a chance.
[Diane giggles]
[Alexis snickers]
Sam: I know everybody thinks I have a reason to make all this up, but --
Jason: No, I believe you. Now, I don't want this guy to get you, I don't want this guy to get anybody else. He needs to pay for what he did to my sister, Leticia, and Georgie.
Sam: And even me? Why the sudden thaw -- what's in it for you?
Jason: I'm -- I'm sorry you're so bitter. I know I didn't -- I didn't help.
Sam: Wow. There is hope for you yet. Must be fatherhood. Or maybe it's St. Elizabeth's influence -- you know what, Jason? Don't do this, ok? Just get out. Go, get out!
Jason: Sam, if --
Ian: I hope you have a very good reason for being here with my patient, or I will have security arrest you where you stand.
Lucky: I know Jason couldn't be more of a sore subject between us, and you're staying away from him for the sake of Jake. I know you'd never willingly get Jason into any kind of trouble. But he was at the scene where Sam was hit, and frankly, he doesn't have a very good explanation for it.
Elizabeth: Jason drives a motorcycle. Sam was hit by a car.
Lucky: Defending him is almost like a reflex to you. It's like you two talk in alibis.
Elizabeth: He didn't do it.
Lucky: Listen, you and I have this urge because we feel guilty for what happened to Sam. It's because we have a conscience. Jason -- he's got a blind spot in that area or he would not be able to do what he does for a living. He may not have hit Sam, but he knows something about that accident. So please just take my advice and keep your distance. It's still the best thing for our little boy.
Patrick: Ahem. Hey, so this, um -- this sperm donor thing -
Robin: Yeah?
Patrick: It's, uh -- it's completely anonymous, right? I mean, the prospective mother doesn't know who the prospective father is, do they?
Robin: No, that's the way it works. Why?
Cassius: Hey, I need a doctor fast -- it's Epiphany. I found her unconscious in the locker room.
Luke: You know what it's like to cheat death. You've seen that bright, white light go out. And you've danced with the dark and clawed your way back, and what did you want to do when you made it back?
Sonny: Live.
Luke: Yeah -- live. And what would you do if some witch doctor and a bunch of meddling relatives had the rest of your life planned and what you consider living was not on the menu?
Sonny: I'd fight it like hell, but I wouldn't put other peoples' lives at risk, and that's what you're asking me to do, Luke.
Luke: You owe me, Sonny. Among other things, I'm the guy that found your boy Jason after the train wreck when he was looking at a mile of dirt over his head.
Sonny: I owe you, I owe you many times over, man. You know what? Maybe turning you down is -- is paying you back and you don't even know it yet.
Luke: I'm not giving up on this, Corinthos.
Sonny: That's what I hear living's all about, Luke.
Luke: Yeah -- that and a warm body to come home to at night. But I don't suppose you have any lack of that, either.
Mike: Hey.
Sonny: What?
Mike: I, uh -- I caught Michael buying bullets on the docks last night. And I thought I should give you a heads-up before -- before this thing got out of hand.
Ian: This man threatening you?
Sam: No -- what would happen if I said yes?
Jason: It would be a lie.
Ian: I don't believe I've given you the floor.
Sam: His name is Jason and we used to be together. You know, I offered my life to him on a silver platter when I thought he was human.
Ian: Well, I don't care who you are or what you do outside this hospital, but inside it, you have two obligations -- respect the people that are sick and stay out of the way of the people trying to take care of them. Right now, you're not doing either.
Jason: If you remember something, I'd like to know if you want to tell me.
Ian: Your friend looks like he likes to walk on the wild side.
Sam: Yeah, he does. But someday, he'll meet his match.
Singer: This time I'll go all the way I might get full of steams I'm sorry about your broken heart but I can't live your dreams
Coleman: Well, hello there. Welcome to Jake's. What -- what are you in the mood for?
Claudia: Trouble.
Luke: I can arrange that.
Singer: I'm going to tangle love and all the way
Jax: You know how I feel about Sonny -- and any women that get mixed up with him.
Kate: Jax, I remember this time in Monte Carlo.
Jax: Well, I remember many.
Kate: Mm-hmm. Well, it was the first time that we met, and I saw this handsome man walking across the room towards me with this determined smile and -
Jax: Oh.
Kate: Imagine my surprise when you not only knew I was Kate Howard, but that you wanted me to introduce you to "Couture's" hottest model. Mm-hmm.
Jax: Hmm, yeah.
Kate: Yeah, she was standing aloofly and appropriately by the ice sculpture -
Jax: Yes, she was, mm-hmm.
Kate: And no amount of warning would deter you, so I relented and introduced you.
Jax: Yes, and I paid the price.
Kate: And I will pay the price with Sonny -- or not. Look, he wouldn't be hurting this much if he didn't still love me.
Jax: Well, sometimes the more Sonny loves, the more people get hurt.
Diane: Nuts with your Prego?
Alexis: This man is in prison and that's exactly where he's going to stay.
Diane: That man is going to go free.
Alexis: He's dangerous.
Diane: There are far more dangerous men roaming the streets.
Alexis: Uh, uh! Where do you think you're going?
Kristina: Ariel!
Alexis: Did you leave her out on the porch again?
Diane: Oh, the poor princess is going to be a frozen fish stick! Sounds like she needs rescuing.
Alexis: No, no, no -- you stay right here.
