and Burn Notice crazy!
Trevor: Let's get this straight, once and for all. I spent a good part of my life protecting John. And I even ran this business while you were out roaming around in your garden looking for your dead wife.
Anthony: You helped him because you wanted to use him as a figurehead, Trevor. The worst day of your life was the day I started to get well.
Trevor: No, I raised that kid because nobody else could be bothered to. And I have always put John's best interests first. I told you right from the start that Lulu Spencer is not one of them. She is an immature brat, and she neither understands nor respects the reality of John's life nor the danger that surrounds him. Oh, God, I knew this thing was going to happen. That's why I tried to send her away the first time that John laid eyes on her. But no, no, no, you -- you -- you wouldn't have it. You wouldn't hear of it. You wanted to encourage that relationship. You wanted to use Lulu for leverage. And now the truth of it is you put your own son's life at risk, not me.
Anthony: You find my son for me, Trevor. And when you do, we'll set him free. Lulu Spencer is going to die. ________________________________________
Nikolas: Lulu's been asking me for help with this for months. She kept telling me how confused she was about her feelings for this -- this guy, Johnny, and I just --
Nadine: It's hard to sort that stuff out sometimes.
Nikolas: I've just been so preoccupied with my own stuff. I really didn't listen to her. I should have just kept telling her over and over -- stay away from him, stay away from him. I could have kept her busy at the -- at the clinic. I could have invited her to come live at Wyndemere for a while. I could have -- I don't know. I nstead, I told her to follow her heart.
Nadine: That's never bad advice.
Nikolas: I don't need any platitudes right now, thank you.
Nadine: Well, you followed your heart with Emily, didn't you? Wouldn't you do that again? _____________________________________________
Ric: Look, I got to admit, I was astonished to find out that you, of all people, helped Johnny and Lulu escape. It does occur to me that you're trying to broker a truce between yourself and my employer. After all, you did try to burn Anthony's house to the ground. So if you were afraid of retaliation, it's a smart move, Jason. But you botched the whole thing, ok? Now johnny is in more danger than ever, and so is Lulu.
Jason: Should I call for a guard?
Ric: I'm just trying to help, Jason.
Jason: You want to help? Get out. _________________________________
Maxie: Claudia is right. I'm an awful person. I think only of myself, and I'll do whatever it takes to get what I want. But you've always known that about me. Yes, I would have been happy to seduce Johnny and get the money. I would have enjoyed hurting Lulu's feelings. But I've also helped her when she's been in some major trouble.
Claudia: To get points with John.
Maxie: Sometimes I have an agenda. That's just how I think. But, Spinelli, you're my best friend, and I've done my best to be a good friend to you as well. And I'm just -- I'm asking you, don't trust Claudia, ok? She's not on your side.
Spinelli: The Jackal appreciates your honesty. Your attempt to turn the Jackal against Maxinista has failed, but the Jackal forgives Vixenella for her harsh attempt at leverage. He realizes that she's just motivated by her deep concern for her missing sibling.
Claudia: Isn't there some way that you can help me? I helped you when you were sick. I helped Jason, too.
Spinelli: If stone cold authorizes your request, I would be more than happy to provide my expert assistance.
Claudia: I'll be back.
Maxie: You're really disappointed in me, right? _______________________________________________
Lulu: I don't care how scared I was. I took a human life.
Johnny: Ok, but Logan attacked you. He could've killed you.
Lulu: Yeah, maybe, maybe not, but I can't go back and apologize. I can't explain to him how scared I was.
Johnny: You don't have to.
Lulu: Well, I need to be held accountable for what I did. I can't act like Logan didn't matter. He didn't deserve to die.
Johnny: Ok, Lulu, think for a second about what really happened, what you really saw. You saw Logan attack Maxie. He threw her across Kate's desk. For all you knew, Maxie was dead. He then busted through my door with an axe, for god's sakes, not to prove to you how much he loved you or because you broke his heart. No, he wanted to make sure that you didn't tell anyone what he did to Maxie.
Lulu: Yeah, but I had enough time to go call the cops or to leave or to get help, but I didn't. I froze. I panicked just like my mother did the night Rick Webber died. _____________________________________________
Carly: You going to say goodbye to Morgan?
Jax: Wow, that's low.
Carly: Why? Morgan loves you. He's lost Michael. He's lost Sonny. And now you're leaving him.
Jax: No, I'm not leaving him. I'm plan to call him every day and go to every one of his karate classes. I'll spend as much time with Morgan as you will allow me to.
Carly: I wouldn't keep Morgan away from you. He loves you.
Jax: Yeah, and I love him, too. But it's not fair to try to use him to get me to stay, ok?
Carly: I don't care. I don't care. If that's fighting dirty, I'll do it. I'm going to do whatever it takes because I know you want to stay married to me. I'm just trying to stop you from making a huge mistake.
Jax: Oh, really? So you're doing me a favor. Is that what you're saying?
Carly: You know, you obviously don't want to fight for this marriage. So I'll -- I'll do the fighting. We're not perfect. We've been through hell. We've both made mistakes. But when I said for better or worse, I wasn't kidding.
Jax: Neither was I. I just never signed up for misery.
Carly: Well, you know, maybe sometimes misery is a part of the deal, Jax. You ow, marriage is like any other long-term investment. You have rough spots, but you're richer in the end. That's the point of taking wedding vows, so you stick around when you feel like leaving. I'm keeping my vows. What about you?
Jax: I have been every bit as committed to this marriage as you have.
Carly: Really? That's why you're walking out the door again.
Jax: As I mentioned before, the only time you seem to notice me is when I'm walking out the door.
Carly: And you say I'm manipulative? You know being abandoned is one of my greatest fears, and every single time something doesn't go your way, you leave.
Jax: I've tried to make this work, carly.
Carly: And when I don't respond the way you want me to respond, you leave.
Jax: You promised not to undercut my investment in "Crimson," and you turn around, and you did exactly that.
Carly: This is not about your investment. It's about Kate --
Jax: No, this has nothing to do with Kate.
Carly: Oh, ok.
Jax: This is about trust and respect.
Carly: I trust you, and I respect you. But there's no way I'm going to let Kate ruin our marriage over a lie.
Jax: You knew exactly -- you knew exactly what was at stake when you lied about the meeting.
Carly: No one left a message. Why won't you believe me?
Jax: I don't want to fight anymore. I'm done.
Carly: You know what? You know that Kate set me up. You're using this as an excuse to leave, and if I didn't love you so much, I might let you go.
Jax: Oh, you ain't letting me do anything. ______________________________________________
Spinelli: The Jackal could never pass judgement on any of Maxinista's choices. In fact, he admired how she refused to be blackmailed by Vixenella. It was -- it was most courageous to tell the truth.
Maxie: No one's ever believed in me as much as you, except for Georgie. Even when I would do crazy, stupid stuff and she'd be furious, she would never g ive up on me.
Spinelli: Wise Georgie -- I miss her.
Maxie: Me, too. I think she would be really happy that we're friends. In a way, it's like the last thing she gave me, my connection with you. You really are my closest friend, and I would never want to do anything that would ruin that. I'm glad that you forgave me.
Maxie: Anyway, I better go. It's getting late.
Spinelli: Wait -- wait -- Stone Cold told us that we should stay together. Would -- spending the night be out of the question?
Maxie: Mac would blow a gasket. Actually, he's going to be working for the rest of the night, so I guess all I would have to do would be leave him a message that he won't get until tomorrow. ___________________________________________
Ric: Look, an A.P.B. that justifies deadly force is excessive. It's unwarranted. John Zacchara is no more a threat to the public than you are. We don't even know if Lulu Spencer has been taken hostage.
Mac: You're wasting your breath. I am not downgrading the A.P.B.
Ric: Mac, if there's a shoot out, Lulu could get hurt.
Lucky: Thank you. We hadn't thought of that.
Ric: Boys, the mayor is out dealing with the press. Now the sooner you two can diffuse the situation, the better it's going to be for everybody.
Nikolas: Hey, tell me where your son took my sister.
Nadine: Nikolas --
Nikolas: Where are they?
Anthony: Your sister brought that gun to John, didn't she? If anything happens to my son --
Nikolas: Look, if you want to spirit your son off to some -- some other country, I really don't care, but you're going to tell me where my sister is.
Anthony: Oh, you don't care. You mean I have your approval?
Nikolas: You just tell John, let Lulu go.
Anthony: If I knew the whereabouts of my son and little Lulu, why am I here?
[Phone ringing]
Nikolas: To cover your own back and make yourself look innocent when you know it was all your doing.
Anthony: Listen to me. There is no way my son pulls a stunt like this on his own. Your sister talked him into it. She's nothing but trouble. She's unstable. She's a nutcase just like your mother.
Nikolas: You son of a --
Anthony: Hey --
Mac: Nikolas.
Ric: Let go, let go. Come on.
Lucky: You need to go home. You're not helping anybody. ____________________________________
Lulu: My mother lost her mind because she thought she killed someone. She panicked like I did. She was defending herself, and when my dad tried to help get her to face the truth, she couldn't stand it.
Johnny: That was your mother, not you.
Lulu: But I could still confess. I mean, my -- I could get a good lawyer, and my family would be behind me. At least it would be telling the truth.
Johnny: Lulu, it's a little too late for the truth to matter to anyone.
[Knock on door] __________________________
Ric: Look, Commissioner Scorpio is just making a bad situation worse, mayor. But if you were to remove the deadly force from the A.P.B, I'm sure everyone --
Mayor Floyd: That thug tried to kill me and stole my car.
Ric: If we give John Zacchara the opportunity to turn himself in, I think everybody could save face.
Mayor Floyd: I would rather see the PCPD take effective action.
Trevor: If Johnny releases Lulu, you can take the credit.
Ric: Exactly.
Mayor Floyd: What if he doesn't? What if he blows her brains out? I promised the voters to be tough on crime. I intend to keep that promise.
Claudia: Johnny would never hurt anyone, especially Lulu.
Mayor Floyd: Tell that to Logan Hayes.
Claudia: The police forced John into this, and you are going to hunt him --
Mayor Floyd: For all we know, you smuggled that gun in here and helped him escape.
Ric: Ms. Zacchara wasn't even here, mayor.
Mayor Floyd: She may also have helped her brother kill Logan Hays. I understand the evidence is leading in that direction.
Ric: Oh, be careful, mayor. You might want to avoid a libel suit by changing the subject. ___________________________
Anthony: I could sit here as long as you can. I got nothing else to do. I'm inclined to think Lulu brought John that gun. You know, hysterical girl not thinking clearly, and her brother's a cop so nobody bothered to search her. Now, the only person who could have arranged for that gun is you.
[Chuckles] Maybe you were trying to get on my good side -- help my son escape to make amends for burning my house to the ground.
Jason: Don't know what you're talking about.
Anthony: Listen, if John dies, I'll have nothing to lose. I'll kill you first, and then I will bring a reign of chaos and terror on this town the likes of which no one has ever seen. So I suggest you put your people to work, Mr. Morgan, and make damn sure my son comes home safe. _____________________________________________________
Maxie: I thought you couldn't look for Johnny and Lulu without Jason's permission.
Spinelli: Uh, the Jackal must await Stone Cold's approval only to disclose the pertinent data. Besides, the sooner the Jackal begins the hunt, the better the chances he'll find find Lulu and the mob prince. Do you have any idea where they might flee?
Maxie: Well, what is it that you have so far? Because this is just a bunch of numbers and dashes. It doesn't really make sense.
[Knock on door]
Mac: Maxie, it's your father.
Maxie: The one time he checks his messages.
[Knocking on door]
Mac: Open this door.
Maxie: I'm coming.
Mac: There's no way you're spending the night here now or ever.
Maxie: This is my personal life, and you can't interfere.
Mac: You're not shacking up in a criminal's apartment, in Jason Morgan's living room.
Spinelli: Oh, if I may intercede on Maxinista's behalf --
Mac: Stay out of this, Spinelli.
Maxie: Don't talk to Spinelli like that.
Spinelli: Stone cold only wishes Maxinista to be safe as we all do.
Mac: You're not staying here. Do you understand? I'm not going to lose another daughter.
Spinelli: Perhaps to honor wise Georgie you should obey your well-meaning, if apoplectic parent.
Mac: Now come on, let's go. The squad car is waiting downstairs.
Maxie: Oh, I'm not going anywhere in a squad car.
Mac: With the lights and sirens.
Maxie: I'm serious.
Mac: Do you understand? I'm keeping you safe, Maxie, whether you like it or not.
Maxie: All right, I'll just find my own way home or stay here.
Mac: I don't have time to argue.
Maxie: Fine, you win. We'll ride home in the squad car. But I swear, as soon as we get there, I'll hightail it to the metro court and have sex with the first bell man I can find. __________________________________
Nadine: John Zacchara would never hurt Lulu.
Nikolas: No, maybe not intentionally. But if I know Lulu, she would do anything to save him. Throw herself into the line of fire -- what happens if she gets too close when the police start shooting? How close was Michael to Sonny when he got hit?
Nadine: It's not going to be the same thing.
Nikolas: I mean, I know I shouldn't talk like that. It's just --
Nadine: Well, sometimes you have to say things out loud to take away the power. ______________________________
Lulu: [Whispering] We should go back out the window.
Johnny: No.
Lulu: But it could be the cops.
Johnny: It's not. They would have said so by now. It's just a nosy neighbor, I'm sure. Be right there. ____________________
Jax: Look, I refuse to waste any more of my time or your time living the way we are now, making up one moment and then crashing into a brick wall the next.
Carly: Then you stay and give us a chance.
Jax: I have stayed, carly. I have tried. We just -- we just need to let this be over.
Carly: It breaks my heart that you don't believe me about the meeting because that means you think I set out to deliberately hurt you, and I wouldn't do that. And you're -- you're letting Kate rip our marriage apart.
Jax: Kate is not a threat to you. I do not know how else I can say it, but if you can't trust me enough to take me at my word, then there's no point in --
Carly: How about you taking me at my word about the meeting?
Jax: Forget about the meeting.
Carly: Ok, you saying that means that you know Kate set me up.
Jax: It's too late for it to matter.
Carly: Ok, really?
Jax: Yeah.
Carly: You want to leave me, you go ahead, but you kiss me goodbye first.
Carly: See, you do love me.
Jax: Yeah. I always will.
Carly: Jax.
Carly: Jax!
[Car starts] ______________________________
Maxie: Well, thanks for bringing me home. I can't believe Mac made such a fuss.
Spinelli: Uh, the top cop loves you very much.
Maxie: I love him, too.
Spinelli: And he clearly disapproves of your association with the Jackal.
Maxie: Mac is wrong a lot when it comes to my personal life. Besides, you're my best friend in the whole wide world. Thanks for helping me today.
Spinelli: The Jackal is at fair Maxinista's service.
Maxie: I'll see you tomorrow.
Spinelli: Ok.
Maxie: Bye, Spinelli.
Spinelli: Bye.
[Maxie screams] __________________________________
Claudia: I want Spinelli to help me find my brother, but he won't touch his keyboard without your permission. So I'm asking you, Jason -- help me find John.
Jason: You don't need Spinelli. You know that Johnny is going to contact you soon. When he does, you just let me know. I may be able to work something out.
Claudia: Ok, I'll tel you when he calls. I'll tell you if you promise -- promise me that you'll help him. _______________________
Nikolas: I appreciate the concern, but I'm all right. Really.
Nadine: You attacked a man in a wheelchair in the middle of the police station, and your sister's been kidnapped. How could you possibly be all right?
Nikolas: Ok, I'm terrible. Do you feel better now?
Nadine: No, I feel awful. But I think that if you talk about this stuff instead of keeping it bottled up inside, it'll help --
Nikolas: Nadine, it's not -- it won't change anything, ok? The one thing I learned about Emily's death is that sometimes the worst really does happen. ___________________________________________________
Man: Who are you and what are you doing here?
Johnny: I'm Joe. I was a, uh -- student of professor Siegel's. He taught me piano when I was a kid, and I moved to Chicago and we kept in touch. He saidI was always welcome .
Man: So you just decided to visit?
Lulu: Well, I'm starting at NYU in the fall.
Man: And you are?
Lulu: Uh, Linda. Joe's been talking about wanting to see professor Siegel for a while, and I thought that this would be the perfect opportunity. He's an amazing piano player. He has to decide if he's going to go the classical route or if he's going to continue with the band, and who better to go to for advice than his old teacher?
Man: That's a nice story. Only trouble is, professor Siegel is dead.
