Jason: Did you find anything?
Spinelli: The jackal has hacked into the surveillance cameras in the warehouse environs, but has yet to turn up anything of consequence.
Jason: Keep looking.
Spinelli: With all due respect, you are still reeling from the shock of young michael's most severe injury. Are you certain that you're ready to resume work?
Jason: Work? Michael is in a coma, and whoever did this is walking around free, and they need to pay.
[Knock on door]
spinelli: Um, vixenella, this is a most inopportune time for a visit.
Claudia: We need to talk about who shot michael.
Jax: She's not ready to face reality yet. But false hope is only going to hurt her and morgan more in the long run.
Alexis: I'm not sure that there is any alternative, really.
Jax: Well, morgan's been asking questions about her. So if i can get carly home, maybe she will have to admit the truth to him and to herself.
Alexis: I guess you could try that.
Jax: But?
Alexis: If i were carly i would be doing the same thing. Hell, i was in carly's situation and i did do the same thing. You believe you can keep your child alive by the sheer force of will.
Jax: Yeah, but Kristina is -- the situation was different.
Alexis: No, it wasn't. They told me she wouldn't recover, they're telling carly michael won't recover. Carly believes that she can get him well by simply believing that she can. And who's to say that she can't?
Jax: Michael's doctors, the medical community.
Alexis: The worst thing that a mother can feel is helpless. You need to just let her find her way through this. Maybe at some point she'll reach acceptance.
Jax: Yeah, well, i'm afraid of what will happen when she finally does.
Leyla: What happened to your ankle?
Nadine: I tripped over my own stupidity. Your former father-in-law owns the haunted star. Do you know what time it's reopening tonight?
Elizabeth: Eight, are you going?
Nadine: I wouldn't miss it -- i love to gamble.
Elizabeth: Great, i'll see you there.
Nadine: Great. Please tell me you know something about gambling.
Leyla: I've played blackjack a few times.
Nadine: Great -- you have to teach me, fast.
Leyla: I thought you loved to gamble. Wait, why do i get a feeling this has something to do with nikolas?
Nadine: Uh, i went out to wyndemere and it was a disaster.
Leyla: What happened?
Nadine: I made a total fool of myself. And to top it all off, i told him i was going to the haunted star. And then went on to say that i love to gamble. Even though where i grew up, the closest thing to a game of chance was bingo night at the church. I've never even seen a casino.
Epiphany: The casino is the devil's workshop, especially if you start winning.
Nadine: Not much chance of that happening.
Epiphany: [Chuckles]
nadine: So you'll give me a few pointers?
Leyla: So nikolas doesn't show up and realize that you're lying?
Nadine: I don't think that nikolas and luke spencer get along very well. He probably won't even be there, which is fine by me. I've had enough nikolas cassadine to last me quite a while.
Lulu: Hi, spencer -- are you having fun with your dad?
Nikolas: Yeah, we're just about to go to the paddock, do you want to join us?
Lulu: Actually, i have a favor to ask.
Nikolas: Ok, why don't you take him in the kitchen and get him a bag of carrots for me. Thank you.
Nikolas: What sort of favor?
Lulu: Um, the haunted star is reopening tonight and i need you to take me.
Nikolas: Ask lucky.
Lulu: I did, i did -- and he's taking elizabeth. Please, if i go myself it's going to seem like i went there to meet johnny.
Nikolas: Oh, ok -- so it's about johnny zacchara.
Lulu: Well, you don't want me to see him, right? So now's your chance to make sure of it.
Johnny: Is someone planning on killing me tonight?
Luke: I certainly hope not, pal. Nothing dampens an opening night like a dead body.
Johnny: If you're afraid that sonny is going to come after me because his son got shot, i'm going to assure him i wasn't involved.
Luke: Well, i hope you can assure him. If it were my kid --
johnny: Sonny's not going to do anything here -- the two of you being old friends.
Tracy: This is perfect. Here i was worried about you overextending yourself on booze and cigars, but instead you'll just be on the receiving end of a mob hit.
Luke: It's exciting, isn't it? Doesn't it make you all tingly?
Tracy: Can i remind you that your daughter's going to be here? And perhaps i could get your word of mob honor that you'll stay away from lulu.
Johnny: I'm part owner of this casino, i plan on being here for the opening. What lulu does with her life is her business.
Claudia: John's planning to go to sonny and tell him we had nothing to do with the shooting. I want you to make sure that my brother leaves that meeting alive.
Jason: Sonny does what he wants.
Claudia: Johnny did not do this. He did not send that shooter. He agreed to a truce to keep things like this from happening.
Jason: Sonny locked up johnny, maybe johnny wanted revenge.
Claudia: Look, john knows -- we both do. A war costs more than it solves. Someone else did this. Some third party wanted to take advantage of the tension between our two families. And you know what? If all hell breaks loose, jason, they're going to sit back and watch us destroy each other. Then they're going to walk in and take what's left. And if you let that happen, you're rewarding the person who shot michael.
Jason: First of all, sonny's not going to act without proof. But once we get it, we're going to go after the shooter. And there's nothing on this earth that is going to stop us.
Carly: And this is the giraffe that jason gave you. Do you remember it? This is a picture of you and jason when you were a baby. You were so cute. Do you remember this?
Carly: Hey.
Jax: Hi -- what's all this?
Carly: Stimulus, memories -- you know, works in cases like michael's.
Jax: Oh.
Carly: This is bits and pieces of his life just sitting here. This is his favorite --
epiphany: Michael needs his bandages changed.
Carly: Ok.
Epiphany: I need you to leave the room, please.
Jax: All right.
Carly: We'll be right outside, baby.
Jax: Why don't you go home for a while?
Carly: I've already been through this. I'm not going to leave michael.
Jax: Look, i need to tell you something, and it's purely out of love and concern.
Carly: What?
Jax: You have another child at home. Morgan needs his mother.
[Applause and cheering]
luke: Thank you. What a hot looking crowd. Ok, well, welcome to another reopening of the haunted star. We are newer and even more improved. I would bore you with a very long speech, but i know we all got better things to do. So, the gin is cold, the tables are hot. Have a wonderful time, everybody.
Tracy: Elaine. Pace yourself.
Luke: You know, you're right -- i should start with bourbon.
Luke: Natasha.
Alexis: Hey.
Luke: Always nice to see you. Are you here for recreational purposes, i hope?
Alexis: I'm here to have a good time. Unless, of course, you have something to hide.
Luke: Always. This, for example, will be our little secret.
Alexis: Well, would your doctor approve?
Luke: How long have you known me?
Alexis: My lips are sealed.
Jerry: Hello, darling. Care to place a few bets with me?
Alexis: I'm afraid i don't have any chips.
Jerry: Well, you do now.
Alexis: I'm a very bad investment. I've tried every strategy in the book and i never win.
Jerry: I have strategies that you've never even dreamed of. So why don't we start with a few tricks i learned in the back room of this delightful chateau near monaco.
Alexis: We are still talking about gambling, aren't we?
Jerry: For starters.
Nadine: Thanks for letting me drag you along. I'm sure the rules will make more sense once i see the tables.
Leyla: Don't count on it. There's a blackjack table, you ready?
Nadine: Ok, wait -- jacks, kings, queens are 10. Aces, one or 11.
Leyla: Maybe roulette -- let's do roulette.
Tracy: Do i have to put you on a collar and a leash?
Luke: Mama, you want me kneeling?
Lucky: You see why i asked you to come?
Elizabeth: I'll keep me eye on him.
Lucky: Thank you.
Elizabeth: Yeah, sure, it's no problem. You needed the distraction tonight.
Lucky: No, i meant for letting me come see the boys.
Elizabeth: It's good for them to be with you.
Lucky: It's good for me, too. I'm hoping i can do more.
Lucky: Excuse me. Sam, sam -- i didn't expect to see you here.
Sam: Obviously not. You know, i really don't think i'm up for this anyhow.
Lucky: I asked elizabeth to come because she's a nurse. My dad, he might party too hard and need medical aid.
Sam: Yeah, well, gee, that makes perfect sense.
Lucky: I would have asked you to come. But i figured you wouldn't want to come because of your hip.
Sam: You don't have to make excuses. If you don't want to be with elizabeth, that's fine.
Lucky: I want to be with you.
Ric: Scotch rocks, please.
Elizabeth: Ric.
Ric: Hi.
Elizabeth: How are you?
Ric: Well, if you would have asked me that a week ago, i probably would have said terrible. But things are looking up this week a bit, thanks.
Elizabeth: How's marianna?
Ric: Sore subject.
Elizabeth: Oh, sorry.
Ric: No, don't be. Just regarding it as a learning experience.
Elizabeth: Are you thinking about taking over as d.A. Again?
Ric: No, i'm looking to get into business for myself pretty soon.
Alexis: You learned all that in the chateau?
Jerry: Yes, from a beauty named philomene.
Alexis: In the back room?
Jerry: Well, for starters.
Alexis: You're appalling
jerry: I know -- here, place a bet.
Alexis: Five dollars -- that's all the chance you're willing to take on me?
Jerry: Just say the word and i will give you anything you want. Who knows, you might get lucky.
Alexis: I'll stick with the five dollars. Something wrong? Jerry: No, i'm just having one of those "someone is walking on my grave" moments.
Alexis: Philomene, perhaps.
Jerry: No, she adored me.
Alexis: Until she got to know you.
Jerry: Until her husband came home. Go ahead, take a chance, darling.
Alexis: Don't get your hopes up.
Jerry: You won't lose. I've taught you all my best secrets, after all.
Alexis: Somehow i'm not reassured. Take your hand off my --
jerry: Ok.
Nadine: Tell me again what people enjoy about this.
Leyla: Cheating chance, defying odds. Winning a fortune at the spin of a wheel or a turn of the card.
Nadine: Well, when you put it that way.
Leyla: Or you can lose everything and wind up penniless and miserable.
Nadine: You're enjoying this, aren't you?
Leyla: And i haven't placed a single bet.
Nadine: It's just overwhelming, how many numbers. Red, black, even, odd.
Ric: I'm seeing red at the moment, if that's any help.
Nadine: Good enough for me. Red, red, red, red. Red, red, red --
[squealing] oh, my God, i won, i won.
Carly: Mercedes is great with morgan. My mom went by there this afternoon, you're home now to help.
Jax: Yes, but none of us can replace you.
Carly: And i asked my mom to explain to morgan that i am here with michael.
Jax: Carly, you've been here for days, ok? Morgan is confused and scared. He knows something is wrong, but he doesn't know what. If you don't care what this is doing to yourself, think about what this is doing to him.
Carly: I don't know what to tell him.
Jax: You have to tell him the truth. Listen -- you have to tell him that michael is in a coma, has been shot and he can't play video games with him or chase him out of his room, ok? He needs to hear all that from you.Not from me, or from Bobbie. And you can't put it off any longer.
Johnny: Waiting for someone?
Lulu: I was supposed to meet nikolas at the launch from wyndemere, but either i'm late or he was early, and he left without me. My cellphone battery is dead.
Johnny: I could take you.
Lulu: Tag, you're it.
Johnny: What does that mean?
Lulu: I guess it's your turn to be sending mixed signals.
Johnny: Is that what i'm doing?
Lulu: Well, you're the one who pushed me away.
Johnny: And you're the one who told me that i would know where to find you. Guess what? I found you. Should we get going?
Logan: Well, well, well. Looks like we're all headed to the same spot.
Luke: Miss zacchara, you look ravishing.
Claudia: I like your choice of words, spencer.
Luke: Can it be you don't have a date?
Claudia: I decided to go solo. It's good to keep one's options open, don't you think?
Luke: [Laughs] hey -- heart patient with a bum leg.
Tracy: So long as you remember.
Alexis: I think i'll go say hello to my daughter.
Jerry: Would you like me to keep your chips warm?
Alexis: Keep your hands off my chips.
Nadine: Thanks for the tip on red.
Leyla: Do you always have this kind of intuition on gambling?
Ric: Well, let's just say i'm luckier at the tables than i am at love.
Leyla: I can empathize.
Ric: Really? Well, you seem like a very bright girl, i'm sure you can find a way to change your odds.
Leyla: Any pointers?
Ric: Me? Absolutely not. Experience has taught me nothing.
Leyla: Would she happen to be one of your past experiences?
Ric: No, i just have some dealings with her father.
Croupier: Place your bets.
Jerry: Our good dr. Devlin is here, and seems to be in high spirits.
Claudia: Why do i care?
Jerry: Well, he assured me there was no way to trace him back to the -- you know what. He also assured me that if he got caught, he'd give both of us up.
Jason: Nothing, nothing.
Spinelli: That concludes every piece of video footage that i jackaled from the bank, the convenience store and the diner across the street from the warehouse.
Jason: Is there anything that we missed?
Spinelli: There is one last possibility. I accessed some footage from the outskirts of the warehouse district.
Jason: Where is this?
Spinelli: It's the lobby of the new business tower. It's the security camera angled out into the street facing east.
Jason: Right there, that car driving by. Did you see something in the back window? Back it up. Freeze it right there. What is that right there?
Spinelli: Doctor i.D. Tags -- you know, to get into the special lot at the hospital.
Jason: That's kind of weird. What would a doctor be doing near the waterfront that time of night?
>> On the next "General Hospital" --
Carly: What if he wakes up while i'm gone?
Jax: I can stay here if you like.
Carly: I'll be right back, ok?
Jason: Which doctor was driving past the warehouse the night michael was shot?
Sonny: I will find out who shot michael.
