Part 2:
Sam: I want to go check out that alley.
Lucky: You're not going alone.
Sam: Fine.
Nikolas: Okay. So let's just say again that you're right, and he is pushing illegal drugs. Did you stop and think what these people would do to you?
Nadine: That was my risk to take.
Nikolas: And I'm just supposed to be satisfied with that?
Nadine: You're my employer. You're not my boyfriend. And even if you were my boyfriend, you still wouldn't get to tell me what to do.
Claudia: She's got it bad for you.
Lulu: Now it's your turn. Tell me about your favorite birthday.
Johnny: No, this is your day. It's all about you. You know, I never pictured you as the princess type.
Lulu: Oh, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I was a typical little girl, and it helped that my wonderful older brother had a giant ballroom for us to waltz around in.
Johnny: You waltzed?
Lulu: Yeah, I walt -- okay. Well, Nikolas waltzed. I kind of went along with it. I mean, I wasn't that bad. I mean, well, I might have been bad, but Nikolas said he would take care of it, and I should follow along, and he did. And pretty soon I was spinning around the room.
Johnny: Well.
[Waltz music plays]
Johnny: This is no ballroom, and I'm no prince, but, uh, come on.
Lulu: "But, uh" --
[Johnny laughs]
Johnny: But, uh -- you ready?
Kate: Now, the bridal bouquet is the foundation for the wedding decor.
Sonny: Yeah, they all look really great to me.
Kate: Well, it's not about looking good. It's about being right. It's about who we want to say we are, okay? So here we go. Roses. Now, they're more traditional. Classic. Timeless. All right. How about wildflowers? They would dictate something more -- oh, I don't know. Wild. Okay. How about something arranged carefully? Sculpted.
Sonny: I want to have an opinion.
Kate: But you're fighting the urge to flee the room.
Sonny: No, it's that, you know, you look so beautiful with those in your hands that it made my heart skip a little bit.
Kate: Oh.
Sonny: And I just -- I just pictured you walking down the aisle and not seeing anything but your face.
Kate: You are no help whatsoever. But you're awfully romantic.
Sonny: Can we move this? Come over here.
Mike: Hey, Sonny, I've --
Sonny: Mike.
Mike: Oh. I'm sorry to barge in like this.
Sonny: Can it just wait?
Mike: No.
Spinelli: The Jackal has previously advised Maximista that there are certain subjects that are not for her lovely ears to hear.
Maxie: What? "Business?" It's not as if I don't know what he does for a living. Hello? I've been around.
Spinelli: Okay. There's no question that Maximista exhibits great bravery in the face of danger, but --
Maxie: So, what? I'm being dismissed because I'm a girl? That's stupid and macho. And that means that Carly is going to have to leave, too.
Carly: Okay. You know what? I could give you an earful as to why my place in Jason's life is far more important than your place in Spinelli's. And how there is absolutely no comparison between what I'm allowed to know and be a part of and what you're allowed to know and be a part of, but instead, I'm going to be a good example, and I'm going to show you how to bow out gracefully, and let Spinelli and Jason do everything they need to do right now.
Maxie: I can't believe you're going to let them treat you like this. I'm really disappointed.
Carly: I don't care.
Maxie: And I don't like how you continually insult Spinelli.
Spinelli: I never said that.
Maxie: Oh, you never would, but that's why I'm going to. He could really help you out in the field. And he wants to. I think you should include him. But if you do include him, please don't let him get hurt.
Jason: Can you leave now, please?
Maxie: Mm-hmm.
Spinelli: Maximista thinks I'm too big of a wimp to even address the issue of my wimpishness.
Jason: Just forget about that, okay? Right here, Karpov's PDA. I want to know everything that's on it. Right now.
[Karpov speaking Russian]
[Man speaking Russian]
Karpov: There may be trouble with Corinthos.
Jerry: Well, that's unfortunate. Having Sonny on your side more or less guarantees that Jason Morgan won't be in the way. Jason rules this town now. If he gets involved -- dos vadanya.
Karpov: Then it would be in both our interests if you dealt with Mr. Morgan.
Nikolas: The staff's gone. We're the only ones here.
Claudia: Should I be flattered you want to be alone with me?
Nikolas: I just wanted to make sure that no one could overhear us. Please sit. Okay. So I think that I have proven you can trust me, yes?
Claudia: Yes.
Nikolas: I need to know if my sister is safe and if you've spoken to your brother.
Claudia: I've only spoken to John one time. He called me. I was with my father, so I couldn't really talk to him, but he said he was -- he said he was okay.
Nikolas: I'm concerned about your brother, as well, but is Lulu okay?
Claudia: Well, um, yeah. I mean, look, John's not ever going to let anything happen to Lulu. You know, he -- I hate to say this, but he really cares about her. I think he's in love with her. So, yeah, she's safe.
Nikolas: That's great. Well, thanks for telling me about the phone call.
Claudia: My brother is not going to let anything happen to your sister.
Nikolas: Oh, well, unfortunately there are some things that your brother can't protect Lulu from.
Nadine: Nurses Without Borders.
Leyla: Excuse me.
Nadine: Yeah, we'll see the world, practice medicine without all the bureaucracy and without all the drama.
Leyla: Ah. Running away is not going to fix this.
Nadine: What are you talking about?
Leyla: Whatever you did or said to Nikolas.
Nadine: No, no, I'm talking about a higher calling. I'm talking about serving humanity.
Leyla: It can't be that bad.
Nadine: Ha. I followed Dr. Hunter to a dark alley and confronted him about the counterfeit drugs.
Leyla: Well, then, maybe you should just leave the guy alone. Maybe he won't say anything to Nikolas.
Nadine: Oh, no, Nikolas knows. Claudia Zacchara made sure of that.
Leyla: Claudia Zacchara?
Nadine: Yeah, right after she pulled a gun on Dr. Hunter.
Leyla: Whoa, why would she do that?
Nadine: I don't know. She claimed to be trying to protect me, even though it was the last thing I needed. And then she dragged me back to the clinic like she was taking me to the principal's office. And that was exactly how Nikolas acted, so condescending, like I was pulling some prank instead of trying to link Matt --
Leyla: Dr. Hunter, hi.
Matt: Hello.
Leyla: Do you need anything?
Matt: Yes, actually, I do. Can you get your friend here into some therapy because her paranoia is ruining my life?
Sam: I don't see anything that would indicate why Matt Hunter was here.
Lucky: I was never convinced Nadine was right to suspect the guy. I mean, I like Nadine. She's great. But she has a crush on Nikolas.
Sam: And what's that supposed to mean? That she's a girl? She can't handle two things at the same time -- caring about somebody and a complex logical thought? God forbid.
Lucky: Uh-huh, well, tell me you've never done anything to impress a guy -- doing something different to make him notice you.
Sam: Are you serious? She's a professional who deals with life and death situations every day.
Lucky: And moons over Nikolas like a lovesick teenager.
Sam: Oh, my God. She overheard Matt Hunter talking about counterfeit drugs.
Lucky: Okay, because he works at the hospital where the counterfeit drugs came in. He's talking about it. That doesn't give us any reason to think he's involved.
Sam: Uh-huh, maybe this does. This alleyway leads to Pier 52, where I landed that shipment for Karpov. Maybe all of this leads to Karpov and the drugs. Come on.
Mike: Look, guys, I can see this is a bad time.
Kate: No, no, no, Mike, not at all. Sonny was just being sweet and romantic all on his own. Now, I'm going to go home, and I'm going to contemplate this momentous choice.
Sonny: Bye.
Kate: Bye-bye.
Mike: Kate, I'm sorry.
Kate: No, stop it, Mike. As possessive as I am about Sonny, I don't mind sharing him with his father. Bye.
[Mike chuckles]
Mike: Good. Bye.
Sonny: You in trouble?
Mike: Not like you mean. Three very large Russian guys walked into Kelly's about a half an hour ago.
Sonny: What happened?
Mike: They ordered some food, and they made a point of greeting me as Sonny Corinthos' father. And they said that their boss Andrei Karpov --
Sonny: Karpov, yeah.
Mike: Might want to meet with me. It felt like a threat.
Sonny: It was. Karpov is a heavy hitter in Russia. I was working with him. I just quit. Clearly, he's not happy about it.
Spinelli: According to his PDA, Comrade Karpov had a meeting at Pier 52 tonight.
Jason: Can you figure out the last time that information was accessed?
Spinelli: 7:53.
Jason: 7:53, that's about the time I was driving Carly back here.
Spinelli: I fail to see the significance.
Jason: It's why she was so easy about leaving us alone to conduct business.
Spinelli: Yeah, it was uncharacteristic of the Valkyrie.
Jason: Carly has already seen where Karpov was headed. She's going to Pier 52.
Matt: So, let's see. You have broken into my bedroom. That was impressive. You've stalked me. That's a little weird. And you've trashed me to God knows how many people, which is completely unnecessary. But I've got a new one, how about we go check out my locker and see what kind of incriminating evidence we can find? That sounds like fun.
Nadine: Obviously, there's not going to be anything incriminating in your locker.
Leyla: You've made your point, Dr. Hunter.
Matt: No, apparently not. You need to stop, or I will get that restraining order.
Nadine: Fine -- that's just fine. Sooner or later, you will get caught. Bora Bora, anyone?
Leyla: Why are you talking about running away?
Nadine: Besides suffering total embarrassment and complete and utter humiliation?
Leyla: You've done nothing to be embarrassed about.
Nadine: Oh, gosh, they think I'm a crazed stalker.
Leyla: They think you were following your instincts.
Nadine: Yeah, well, Nikolas doesn't see it that way.
Leyla: Well, he should because those instincts are exactly what saved his life when he was facing brain surgery. Don't start doubting yourself now.
Nadine: Well, I guess when you put it that way.
Leyla: You're a woman of conviction, a fighter. You've done nothing to be embarrassed about.
Nadine: I guess you're right.
Leyla: Yeah, Nikolas was way out of line.
Nadine: Yeah, he's the one who should be embarrassed. He's the one who should be apologizing.
Leyla: You're bloody right.
Nadine: Yeah. I'm going to go tell him. Thanks.
Nikolas: I could see all the warning signs, you know, how much the fear was taking its toll on Lulu. And you'd think growing up with a father like Luke that she'd be a bit more cynical, but --
Claudia: Like me.
Nikolas: Yeah, like you. Lulu, she has a kind, loving heart, you know. Just like her mother. For me, I've always had this fear hanging over me that I'd turn into my father. And, now, I look at her and it's -- I don't know. She's a lot stronger than me. Maybe I'm not giving her enough credit. I don't know.
Claudia: Well, listen, I mean, worry when you are an older sibling, a big brother, it just sort of goes with the territory, right? I mean, I tell myself all the time, hey, Johnny's competent -- perfectly competent -- and he's going to be okay. But I'm scared out of my skin because I'm not there to protect him from those trigger-happy fools, and --
Nikolas: I know.
Claudia: I just love him so much. If anything ever happened to him --
Nikolas: Believe me, I know.
Claudia: You don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Something inside of me would break, and I would become the monster that everyone thinks that I am.
Nikolas: Well, listen, would it be okay if we passed along information to each other, shared information? Maybe work together on this? Would that be okay?
Claudia: Nikolas, if you really mean that, then, you know, let's do it right away. I mean, let's do it now. Let's do whatever it takes to bring Johnny and Lulu home safe.
Maxie: Good, you're alone.
Spinelli: Yeah, I'm still alone. You didn't see me. We didn't speak.
Maxie: Why? What are you doing?
Spinelli: This is Karpov's stuff, isn't it? You're going to go do something. You better tell me, or I'm going to tell Jason.
Spinelli: No.
Maxie: Talk.
Spinelli: I'm going to return this PDA to the warehouse, so that Comrade Karpov will think he dropped it. He will then go on blithely unaware that the Valkyrie stole it, and that we are now in possession of its most secret contents.
Maxie: No, no, no, that's way too dangerous.
Spinelli: It's essential if Stone Cold is to retain the upper hand.
Maxie: Okay, well, then I'm going to go with you.
Spinelli: No, no, brave Maximista, I must do this on my own.
Maxie: Uh, no. Jason didn't approve this.
Spinelli: It is my chance to prove that my skills go beyond cyber-dominance.
Maxie: You don't need to prove anything to Jason, okay? If he wants to run around getting shot at, ordering people around --
Spinelli: It's not just about proving myself to Stone Cold.
Maxie: I still don't understand what you're trying to prove.
Spinelli: I have to prove that I can escape beyond the shelter of my computer screen and actually walk the walk.
[Spinelli groans]
[Door shuts]
Sonny: Look, I did not go looking for this, Mike. Karpov approached me.
Mike: Look, look, look. It's -- it's your life, Sonny. I make no judgments here. It's just that I'd hoped that when you signed the business over to Jason that you really were done, especially now that you're marrying Kate.
Sonny: I thought I could run interference for Jason without being pulled back in, that I could pave the way for Karpov in exchange for keeping the peace. I was going to be a consultant under the radar, right? And then, you know, I'd introduce him to some people. But just to be a facilitator.
Mike: All right. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal for Karpov.
Sonny: Well, yeah. But, you know, all the trouble it took Karpov to get me on board, you would think he wouldn't be stupid enough to deal drugs. But he did, so the deal's off. Jason's going to have to deal with him the way he deals with him.
Mike: Look, look, I believe -- Sonny, I believe that you're honest about your motives here.
Sonny: Right.
Mike: Okay? But I'm an addict, and you're my son. And as much as you meant well, working with Karpov also gave you a taste of the way your life used to be.
Sonny: Well, that taste did more than enough to convince me I don't want to go back.
[Crowbar clatters]
Lulu: Okay, my eyes are closed. I don't see the point since I know what's coming. All right, I'm going to open my eyes now. I mean it. Here I go.
[Screams]
Nikolas: Yeah, since it's Lulu's birthday, I knew she'd be on your mind even more. No, no, I'm sorry, Lesley, I haven't heard anything new. But I'll be sure and call you the moment I do.
Nadine: I take back my apology.
Nikolas: What apology?
Nadine: The one I almost made at the clinic. The more I think about it, the more I realize that outside of my work, you have no right to tell me what to do.
Nikolas: Look, look, I've just been concerned about you.
Nadine: Oh, there it is. You're doing it.
Nikolas: Doing what?
Nadine: You say those words like there's only one way to take them, like, there's this line you never cross. And then you tromp all over that line with your concern, and it's like, what's up with Nadine? Why is she acting so... you know.
Nikolas: No, no, I really don't.
Nadine: Oh, like it's all in my head, like you're not doing what you're doing.
Nikolas: Nadine, I don't have a clue what you're talking about.
Nadine: Then I'll show you.
Sonny: I'd offer you a drink, but you won't be staying long.
Karpov: For a man who held so much power for so long --
Sonny: Careful. This doesn't have to be hostile. You want to move drugs, I don't. I don't like dealing with the people you're forced to deal with -- derelicts, addicts, desperate people. I thought I was clear with you. But see, what you thought is I'd see all that money and I'd jump. Well, you miscalculated. Our association is over.
Karpov: You are the one who has miscalculated. It's far from over.
Spinelli: Aah! Um -
Sasha: Who are you? Why are you snooping around? You know you can't imagine the kinds of terrible accidents that happen in a warehouse.
Maxie: Excuse me, but why are these creeps manhandling my boyfriend?
Jason: Stop, it's me. Stop.
Carly: What the hell, Jason?
Jason: You need to get out of here.
Carly: I am not going anywhere. This is Karpov's shipment.
Jason: You are not doing this.
Carly: You need my help.
Jason: No, I don't need your help. I don't need to worry about Karpov or Sonny and worry about you getting yourself killed.
Carly: You're in more danger than I am. Sonny sold you out to the Russians, and I'm not going to let you do this alone.
Jason: Carly.
Carly: Gun!
