Operator's voice: What's the nature of your emergency?
Nikolas: There's a fire at the emily quartermaine clinic on van ness.There's at least one person trapped inside.I need help.
Nikolas: Nadine!Nadine, can you hear me?
Sam: Um, choking as foreplay --that's a little out there forme, but, hey, i'm not going topass any judgment.
Jerry: Smooth recovery, huh?That's one of your specialties,so is subterfuge and this evening reeks of it.I've yet to find a plausible reason why you went from despising me to being weak-kneed with desire with so much as a pause for reflection.
Sam: You do not live in my head,so you wouldn't know how longi've been reflecting, now, wouldyou?It's like i said, i'm tired of being this reformed character.I miss the real sam mccall.Take her or leave her.
Sonny: Once upon a time, i knewa girl who wanted to get out ofthat life, who knew that lifehad bigger and better things in store for her. And she went away and she tookmy heart with her.And now she's got it back.I want to marry you.Will you?
Kate: Yeah.I will mary you.
Carly: I'm sorry.I'm so sorry.
Elizabeth: You want to go after her, don't you?
Nikolas: Nadine.Come on, i'm going to get youout of here.Come on.Let's go.
[Nadine coughing]
Nadine: It's bad.It's really bad.
Nikolas: Come on.
Judge aroyo: Miss johnson, youbetter be sure about this.You're making a very seriousallegation.
Epiphany: Yes, your honor, weare absolutely sure.We caught mrs. Albrightred-handed.Mr. Price was particularlyhelpful.
Ron: Yeah, when we walked up onmrs. Albright, she was using that cell phone and she was saying something about "in the progress of turning the jury."
Epiphany: I'm quite sure that if you check that call log and trace that last number dialed,you will find a directconnection to anthony zacchara.
Judge aroyo: Do you have anything to say, mrs. Albright?
Mrs. Albright: I -- i don't know anthony zacchara. Well, how cold i? No, i'm just -- i'm just a little old lady.
[Epiphany scoffs]
Mrs. Albright: I'm -- i'm on a fixed income. And how -- how could i know the zaccharas? They would never associate with the likes of me.No, i'm -- i just was making a phone call to my niece. It was her birthday, you know,and i missed it.
Edward: She's lying like a rug.
Judge aroyo: I am going to remove you from the jury, mrs. Albright.
Mrs. Albright: Oh, that's the way justice goes, does it? You are guilty until you are proved innocent.
Judge aroyo: I am not about to risk a mistrial on a capitol case. Miss johnson, you know alonzo garza as one of the alternates. He is now a member of the jury. I'm reminding you that the law requires you to restart deliberations as if they had never begun.
Edward: Oh, God, that's absurd. We've been yapping in here for hours.Can't we just bring garza up to speed?
Judge aroyo: No,mr. Quartermaine, you may not.I'll leave you to your work.
Edward: Now? Hey, it's past sundown.
Judge aroyo: What does that have to do with anything?
Edward: No one told us that we would be effectively sequestered. It's a breach of contract.
Judge aroyo: I'm giving you a choice, mr. Quartermaine.Resume deliberations with the rest of the panel, or i'll cite you for contempt of court andyou can spend the rest of the night in jail.
[Epiphany chuckles]
Edward: Oh, for pete's sake.
Judge aroyo: Excellent.You, come with me.
Epiphany: Well, you heard her,everybody.We have to restart the deliberations from thebeginning.
Alonzo: Don't bother.Zacchara is guilty.Let him fry.
Sam: Well, are you going to throttle me? Because if not, i would really like another glass of wine.
Jerry: Nerves of steel, i'll give you that.
Sam: Let's just say i enjoy a challenge.
Jerry: So getting toe-to-toe with -- what is it you call me, a psychopath, gets your blood racing?
Sam: That surprises you? Oh, all right, fine.I actually can't stand you.And since we are putting all the cards on the table, i guess i have to admit that i do -- iunderstand you in ways that i am not anxious for certain people to know, but i almost, on rare occasions, admire you.
Jerry: Yes, yes, no need to pile it on so thick. I don't want to choke.
Sam: You were the one that said we were exactly alike. I'm just agreeing with you. Not that i would get my kicks out of taking a whole lobby full of people hostage and torturing them for 12 hours, but i have broken my share of laws and i have ran my share of scams for several different reasons --money, security, sometimes just for kicks.Does that sound familiar?
Jerry: Hmm.So?
Sam: Lately, i've thought i could do a complete turnaround and embrace the straight life. But you know what? It is not all it's cracked up to be So i started thinking about it, and i am right back where i started -- broke, captain of a ship.Except i have no man or scam to keep my boredom at bay.
Jason: I just know carly does crazy things when she gets mad.
Elizabeth: Then you should catch up with her. I've known you long enough to get how it works. Carly crashes and burns, and you're there to make it right.
Jason: But, elizabeth --
Elizabeth: It's ok.Just go do what you need to do.
Carly: I have to find my purse.I have to get out of here.
Spinelli: Jackal can't help but notice the valkyrie seems even more distressed than before she went upstairs.Perhaps it would be prudent to postpone any use of a motor vehicle. Besides, i have refreshments.
Carly: You tell jason i'm sorry, i didn't mean to interrupt.
Spinelli: Stone cold?
Jason: Whoa, carly, carly. Hey, hey -- don't run off.
Carly: No, you have a life, and i don't know why that possibility never seems to occur to me. I'm sorry.
Jason: Tell me what happened.
Kate: Wow.I feel -- mm -- triumphant. We did it.
Sonny: Yeah, we did it.
Kate: We came dangerously close to losing each other again, but here we stand again. A little battle-weary, perhaps. Bruised, but intact.
Sonny: We beat the odds.
Kate: I think it speaks volumes of how much we love each other.
Sonny: You're going to marry me,right?
[Sonny laughs]
kate: Well, the wedding might be a little smaller than we planned.
Sonny: That's all right.
Kate: I'm sure all the people i told that we cancelled have rescheduled.
Sonny: I'm just glad you're marrying me. I don't want to move the wedding date back.
Kate: Me, neither. I can't wait to be your wife.
Sonny: Ooh.
Diane: I would seriously rethink that if i were you.
[Sirens wailing]
Nikolas: You're ok.
Nadine: I'll be fine.
Nikolas: No, no. Come on, stay with me. You're ok. You're ok.
Firefighter: I'm going to need you to move.
Nikolas: Sorry.
Firefighter: First victim has major third-degree burns. Tell the e.R. To prep for skin grafts and lung trauma.
Edward: Oh, i have lived in this city for more years than some of you have been alive. And the mob element? Oh, it's always been here lowering our quality of life, stealing our children's souls, killing our friends and our loved ones. Frank smith, sonny corinthos, and now the zaccharas. These people have cost this community more than i can even articulate within the parameters of these proceedings. And this is the environment that spawned john zacchara, the pampered son of a vicious crime lord. Taught from the cradle that, oh, territory is far more important, oh, more valuable than human life. Do you know something? We have the opportunity to stand collectively, right now, and say, "no, not this time." Lulu spencer lives in my house, and i can't say she's opened her heart to us. She's a troubled, complicated young girl. But she's a good girl with a good heart, and she deserves the life that she hasn't yet begun to live.
[Edward scoffs]
Edward: All i've heard is what a grave responsibility we have. And i finally understand and agree, but that responsibility is not to john zacchara. No, it's to lulu spencer. It's to logan hayes.It's to the city that every single one of us calls home. And i say that we go back with a verdict of guilty.
Epiphany: That was, uh, very moving, edward. And i could tell that a few words actually came from your heart. Now, it's my turn. John zacchara is a mobster's son. And according to mr. Quartermaine's standards, that makes him guilty. But in this country, you can't be convicted because of who your family is. In this country, you all -- we all are equal under the law. That boy was defending his sister. He did what i would do, what you would do, what any of us would do if anyone we loved was being hurt. He protected his sister. He did what he could to save her.
Sam: You know, it makes me laugh at how eager i was to embrace the whole concept of community. How i was convinced that my life would transform into something magical if i just got a job, paid taxes, and, i don't know, grew a few roots.
Jerry: Well, it's served you pretty well.
[Sam chuckles]
Sam: What, are you talking about this apartment? Spoils from "everyday heroes," a gig that turned out to be every bit as transitory as a scam. And you want to know why it blew up in my face? Because of the past that i cannot escape. So i figure why even try? Why not just accept myself for who and what i am and stop stifling my true potential?
Jerry: And in your beautiful eyes, what would that be?
Sam: Mm, i am good at being bad. I come alive when my luck runs out and i have to think on my feet. I miss walking on the wild side because i'm comfortable there. Which is why you don't scare me.
Jerry: All right. Let's say for the sake of argument that i buy an actual word that you said to me. I have to admit your self-evaluation closely mirrors mine. I came to settle in this cowpoke of a city because i wanted to have a relationship with my brother, and that quest wasn't a total failure. I mean, you know, i find it extremely gratifying that jax and i have had that rare moment of real connection or some woman like alexis looks at me and finds something like hope. When all's said and done, none of it compares with standing on the edge of a cliff and stepping off into nothing, not knowing if this is the last risk i will take. Not caring because the freefall and its rush is just enough.
Carly: I am so sorry for barging in on you. I didn't do it on purpose. I had no idea you were even home.
Spinelli: Yeah, the jackal can confirm the valkyrie's claim of innocence. I mistakenly told her you were off the premises. Did she interrupt a much needed power nap?
Jason: You came here because you're upset. Just tell me what happened.
Spinelli: Oh, my -- oh, my goodness. Oh, i had no idea the maternal one was in stone cold's bed -- room. I -- i was under the impression that a physical relationship was --
Jason: Spinelli, please. You're not helping.
Elizabeth: And neither am i, so i'm just going to go.
Jason: No, no, no. You don't have to go.
Elizabeth: Actually, the hospital just called and they're short a nurse, so i'm going to go fill in.
Carly: This is wrong, ok? You had the night off. You clearly had plans.
Elizabeth: It's ok. Jason wants to help you.
Diane: Consider me the -- excuse me, thank you -- the emotional cavalry. You are blinded by love. You're not seeing clearly. You're judgment is compromised. I, on the other hand, am clear and objective as a judge. So as your very dear friend, allow me to give you the benefit of my logical and disciplined point of view and remind you again of the myriad reasons why you need to run, not walk, to the nearest exit and never, ever marry sonny corinthos.
Sonny: Diane, you are a great attorney. You work your butt off for me, but sometimes, i don't know why, i get the distinct feeling that you don't like me very much. I don't know why.
Diane: This is nothing personal, sonny, believe me. This is a sisterhood kind of thing, and i don't expect you to understand.
Maxie: I'm sorry.
Diane is really fast.
Kate: Well, well, maxie, where were you? Getting your hair cut? What happened to "hold all my calls and no visitors"?
Maxie: It's not like i could tackle her or anything.
[Diane laughs]
Sonny: You know, actually i'm glad that diane is here.
Kate and diane: You are?
Sonny: Well, i'd rather be undermined to my face than behind my back. That way i can defend myself. So, diane, give it your best shot. Convince kate howard to walk away from me.
Monica: Ok, we'll just have them cleared. Oh, elizabeth, thank you for coming on such short notice. Well, actually no notice whatsoever.
Elizabeth: Sure. I wasn't far when you called, and my plans for the night kind of fell through.
Monica: Oh, sorry.
Elizabeth: It's good to see you.
Monica: It's good to be back, actually. Oh, what do we have here?
Doctor: Fire at the free clinic. Dr. Hunter has third-degree burns on his legs.
Monica: Elizabeth, pull dr. Hunter's file and notify next of kin. Let's get him into --
Elizabeth: Nadine was at the clinic, too? Nikolas?
Nikolas: I want to go with her.
Elizabeth: No, just let them do their jobs and stay here with me, ok?
Sam: Ooh, hold on. Hold on. You need to slow down.
Jerry: At this point of our involvement, i don't think coy truly becomes you.
Sam: Really? You have reservations about me? That happens to work both ways, and i happen to know that you do not do anything without an agenda. And it has suddenly dawned on me that trusting you could be a problem.
Jerry: Oh, am i expected to believe that you've trusted every man you slept with?
Sam: No. Listen to me. In bed is one thing, out of bed -- that's a whole complete different issue. My life pretty much blew apart the last time i slept with one of my mother's men. So until i'm convinced that you are not using me to cleanse your alleged conscience by confessing our little hook-up to my mother, there will not be one.
Spinelli: Had the jackal known stone cold was reconnecting, as it were, with the maternal one, i would have never entered the premises, let alone sent up agents of disruption to sully your love nest.
Jason: No one is blaming you, spinelli.
Spinelli: And also, i've compounded the already distressed valkyrie's anxieties.
Carly: It's ok. You didn't mean to do any harm. And i was here, remember? You didn't know jason was home. And jason should be allowed to have a woman upstairs in his bedroom without me barging in the door. It's called boundaries. And i'm sorry, i'm not really good at them. Spinelli, can i talk to jason alone?
Spinelli: Say no more.
Jason: Just -- just leave it.
Spinelli: Sorry.
Jason: Ok.
[Jason exhales]
Carly: He's a great guy. I can see why you like him so much.
Jason: You didn't come here to talk about spinelli.
Carly: Jax hit the wall just like you said he would.
Jason: He found out about you and sonny?
Carly: Yeah, and he moved out and he took everything this time and he's not coming back. I lost him. And it's killing me because i love him more than anything.
