Laura: If the worst should happen, you will survive.

Lulu: I'm not sure i'd want to.

Laura: I'm not telling you this to make you feel better. I'm telling you this because i know it to be true. When it feels like there's
nothing left, it's love that sees you through. It feeds your soul, and it helps you to survive beyond what you thought was humanly possible.

Lulu: Like you and dad.

Laura: Yeah. We've been separated by time, distance, and now this illness, but i always found a way to go on because i knew that that's
what luke would want me to do. And i want that for him, too. Do you remember right before i got sick again? Do you remember what i told you?

Lulu: To live life fully -- the best life that i could.

Laura: Good girl. You're more of a survivor than you realize.

Maxie: You're making a giant mistake. You think i'm perfect, but i am so far from it.

Spinelli: Like any great work of art, it is the -- it is the absence of perfection, the contrast between light and dark that make it a real masterpiece.

Maxie: You think that i'm a work of art?

Spinelli: Real art. Not like the one-dimensional perfection seen in the pages of "crimson." I -- no disrespect to maximista's chosen career path,
but you are so much more dynamic and complex than the -- than the smooth, boring women in the pages of "crimson." You have a special heart and
soul.

Maxie: Well, is there any mistake i can make that you can't forgive?

Spinelli: But we learn from our mistakes. We grow from them, and of course we regret the pain that we cause, but it's that pain that
allows us tolerance for others that are equally as flawed. Like me, for instance. So in all honesty, i would never ask maximista to be anything
other than what she is right now.

Maxie: Spinelli, you truly are the most wonderful person i've ever known.

Spinelli: Does that mean you'll change your mind and stay?

Maxie: Like i could ever leave you?

Kate: I have work to do.

Sonny: Ok, hold on, hold on, hold on. I've got nothing else, you know, to lose here. So i'm going to ask you a question. I just want you to answer it.Do you -- do you think i've been lying to you this whole time? Do you think i just -- i just wanted to marry you for your money or your status or --

kate: Don't be ridiculous.

Sonny: Well, you know me. Why would i want -- pretend to be with someone i don't want to be with?

Kate: Well, you wouldn't.

Sonny: Ok, answer this. You think i lied to you when i -- when i told you i loved you?

Kate: I believe you that you love me.

Sonny: Then all you got to do is get past the pain, and i -- i will be faithful to you for the rest of my life.

Kate: How am i supposed to believe that?

Sonny: It -- it -- it may one of the hardest things you ever do, but you got to take that leap. Because, i swear to you, i will
protect your heart just like i'll protect your life. All you got to do is marry me. We can still do this. I mean, you know, we can make --
listen, all you got to do is say yes.

[Matt sighs]

matt: Nurse.

Scott: By now, all of you know that logan hayes was my son. I didn't know him very well, and now i am not going to get a chance to know him at all because of that man, the defendant. He killed logan hayes because he wanted lulu spencer all for himself.He lured logan to his apartment, and then he stuck a knife in him. All of this garbage about a door and an axe -- that is all fabrication made up by his sister because she wants to get him off. She knows that if he is convicted, because logan hayeswas a police officer and a military man, the state is going to ask for the death penalty.

Ric: The evidence speaks for itself. Logan hayes' tainted military record. The testimonies of maxie jones, claudia zacchara, and many others proving that logan hayes was mentally unstable and violent. Logan hayes hacked his way through the door of john zacchara's home to attack the defendant's sister -- the one person that he blamed for driving lulu spencer away from him. So what did john do?John acted in the moment, without thought for himself, to save his own sister's life. Now his subsequent actions, including his escape from police custody, resulted in his overwhelming concern for his mentally unstable girlfriend, lulu spencer, who drove two men against one another and who now drowns in guilt, knowing that
she ignited the violent actions of logan hayes.

Judge: Members of the jury, you have now heard all the evidence and testimony related to this murder case. I caution you to deliberate with
care. This is a death penalty case. A man's life is in your hands.

[Bangs gavel]

lulu: How did i ever manage without you?

Laura: I'm so sorry, honey. I wish that i could go back and make up --

lulu: No, no, no, no, no. You being here now means everything to me. You look tired, mom.

Laura: It's been an exhausting day.

Lulu: Well, ok, i'll walk you to your room.

Laura: No, don't do that. I know it unsettles you to watch me fall asleep, right?

Lulu: Yeah, ok.

Laura: Ok. I'll see you soon. I'm ok. I'm all right.

Nikolas: Hi.

Lulu: Hi. How are you? What happened at the trial?

Nikolas: Take it easy.

Lulu: No, did you -- did you convince them that i was telling the truth about being the one who killed logan?

Kate: Please, sonny. Just let me put this behind me so i can get on with my life.

Sonny: Which life? The one where you put your walls up to keep the feelings out? That safe life that you were so happy to leave behind?

Kate: It's better than this pain.

Sonny: Listen to me. Don't let a mistake, something that happened once and is not going to happen again, steal us from the life we planned
together.

Maxie: Kate, i'm so sorry. My testimony went longer than expected. Oh, ok, um. I brought spinelli to help me fix that email problem, so we'll
just go fix it now.

Spinelli: If i may offer my deepest condolences. Maximista shared the grievous news that your nuptials had been canceled due to mr. Sir's
transgressions with -- the valkyrie.

[Knock on door]

Elizabeth: We never finished our conversation.

Jason: Yeah, i got -- i got a meeting with the city council.

Elizabeth: Are you going to let me in or make me do this in the hallway?

Jason: I got just -- you know,i'm trying to get permits. Diane set up this meeting with a city council member. If i blow him off, he's -- he's going to take the whole project. So, i just --

Elizabeth: Just admit you're running, that you're afraid to talk to me.

Jason: I'm sick of hurting you, telling you "no, i can't." I can't make you happy.

Elizabeth: Well, that's for me to decide, not you.

Jason: I mean, it would work for a little while, but sooner or later, someone you love will get hurt, or i'm going to do
something that you cannot live with.

Elizabeth: I accept that we don't have a future, but we do have right now. That's all i'm asking.

[Flames crackling]

nadine: Matt! Matt! Matt, wake up. Matt, you've got to wake up.Come on. [nadine grunts] [ceiling creaks]

nadine: Oh, no! [Glass shatters] [nadine coughs]

nadine: Help! Help!

Nikolas: I didn't -- i didn't even need to testify, because -- because claudia took the stand instead.

Lulu: Claudia, what did she -- what could she say? She didn't come in until after logan was dead.

Nikolas: She -- she testified that logan broke into the penthouse and tried to rape and murder her, but that john came in at the last minute to save
her.

Lulu: She made the whole thing up.

Nikolas: I -- i didn't believe a word that came out of her mouth, but that's the most --

lulu: Oh, my --

nikolas: I know -- some of the most convincing testimony i've ever heard.

Love her or hate her, claudia may have saved john's life.

[Door opens]

claudia: Hey.

Johnny: Hey. You ok?

Claudia: Yeah, i'm good. I'm good, johnny. I don't want to talk about it, ok?

Johnny: No one ever did for me what you did today. No one's ever fought for me like that, and no matter what happens, i want you to know that
i love you.

Claudia: I love you -- love you, john. I think you're the only person i could ever love. I had to do that for you, you know?
I just hope it was enough.

Johnny: Yeah.

Anthony: You heard baldwin's closing argument. All that crap about his son, the big hero. He had the jury eating out of his hands.

Trevor: Tony, you've got to stay calm, or you're going to blowthis thing right out of the water.

Anthony: At least claudia stepped up. That girl can lie like no one i've ever seen.

Trevor: Yeah.

Anthony: Makes her father proud.

Trevor: She gave the jury something concrete to turn things around. They got something to work with now.

Edward: Well, folks, we can make this short and sweet. There is no guiltier man than john zacchara.

Mrs. Albright: What was the poor boy to do? His sister had just been attacked.

Ron: If i saw my sister about to be raped, and there was a knife in the room, i know damn well that i'd use it.

Epiphany: Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Now the first thing we need to do is choose a jury foreperson.

Ron: Who here feels qualified to lead us?

Sonny: We're having a -- a private conversation.

Spinelli: Yeah -- i -- mr. Sir's trying to persuade the fashionista to forgive his dalliance, then all --

kate: Ok, maxie, we won't be needing mr. Spinelli's assistance today. You can hold all my calls. Please close the door.

Maxie: Ok, mm-hmm.

Sonny: Kate, look at me. Look, do not let what -- what just happened here derail us.

Kate: No, spinelli's good. It's good they showed up. I was about to give in, and i know i'd regret it.

Sonny: No, you won't. We deserve to be happy. We can be happy. I will not give up on us.

Kate: What if i said that i would forgive you, hmm? What would happen to us if i said that i would marry you?

Elizabeth: You don't know how i've tried to talk myself out of this, but it never works. All i see is you.

Jason: How i dealt with karpov, the things you heard me say, that's -- that's who i am. All the times i got shot, and you had to nurse me back to
health, i was shooting at people who were shooting at me, and sometimes they died. I chose a life where being able to kill is a measure of success.
I choose to break the law. I had a chance to run away with you and the kids, and i chose to stay. What part of that makes you love me?

Elizabeth: I can't explain it. It's not logical. That's why it's love.

Singer: And maybe this time the fates will be kind to us so let's lovelike it's ours to keep
