Kate: Would you even care if sonny died?
Olivia: Connie --
Kate: What?
Olivia: Come on.
Kate: What, olivia? I'm being serious. If sonny were dead, there would be no risk that he or dante would find out the truth.
Olivia: There's no risk now because me and you are the only two people in the world that know, and I know you're not going to tell.
Kate: I'll never understand you, olivia, how you could keep sonny's child from him. Even if you do subscribe to the belief that sonny is a mobster, now and forever, you know he's a good man. I know you know that because you are the one who told me.
Olivia: Oh, god.
Kate: You knew before me. Do you remember?
Olivia: Did I ever once say that sonny wasn't dangerous and wild, ever? Even when my crush on sonny was at its absolute zenith, I always knew that the guy was trouble. That's what I liked about him. You -- you were always trying to change him, which is perfectly acceptable for a teenage girl. It's a big mistake for a grown woman who's got their life and their career on the line.
Kate: Why do you think that I'm not capable of seeing the truth, of making a choice?
Olivia: Connie, I'm telling you what you already know here. You cannot stay with sonny without putting your life on the line.
Alexis: I just don't want to be blindsided, all right, if my daughter is brought to her knees by the russian mob. I'm going to have some serious choices to make, and I was hoping that maybe you would be able to help me.
Jerry: Well, I have the information, but it might reflect badly --
Alexis: Jerry, stop it, all right? You either know or you don'T.
Jerry: All right, all right. I wanted to lease a warehouse on the waterfront. I wanted to have an import/export business, but it soon became impossible, not with my background, you know. Former colleagues of questionable character would no doubt want to pull me in. And certain law enforcement officials, such as your lovely self, would keep me under microscope. And the situation was further complicated by the fact that there was a lot new activity on the waterfront.
Alexis: The russian invasion.
Jerry: Right. So I decided to cut my losses and abandon the project.
Alexis: You still haven't said what this has to do with sam.
Jerry: Well, you know, while i was doing research on the project, I bumped into sam a couple of times, once at alcazar's warehouse and pier 52. And both times she said she was looking for work as -- piloting ships or something like that.
Alexis: Did she say for who?
Jerry: Well, the second time, i walked in on a meeting that was just breaking up. I couldn't see the man. He was leaving.
Alexis: Was it karpov?
Jerry: Well, darling, I think we both know the answer to that question.
Sam: Whoa! Oh, I thought you had to work.
Lucky: Yeah, well --
Sam: What are you doing?
[Sam laughs]
Lucky: I just had to see more of you.
Sam: Mm, I like that. Wait a minute, lucky. Lucky, I can't, actually. I -- oh -- I can'T. Really, I can'T. Karpov called. You cannot get upset every time this happens.
Lucky: No, I'm not upset.
Sam: Come on, don't lie to me.
Lucky: No, it's just every time karpov calls, you have to go. I just wonder if you're going to make it back safely.
Sam: Come on, how do you think i feel when you go to work? And you've got a gun and a badge.
Lucky: Listen, why you got to be attracted to such danger junkies?
Sam: I don't know, why? Why? Why are you asking this? Did something happen?
Lucky: No, not directly. I just saw claudia zacchara.
Sam: Ok, well, that explains a lot. That can't ever be good.
Lucky: No, I'm just worried about lulu. All I want is for her to get better.
Sam: Ok, I get it. You're scared that lulu is going to find her way back to johnny zacchara.
Claudia: I had another call from vaughn. He said you took another ship out.
Johnny: Yeah, except this one was much faster. You want me to show you?
Claudia: No, I'm not -- I'm not interested in watching you or helping you risk your life, johnny.
Johnny: Lighten up, claudia. I didn't crash. I came this close, but made it through without a scratch.
Claudia: Which one was it?
Johnny: One of morgan'S.
Claudia: Oh, that's -- that's awesome, john. Awesome. Did anybody see you? Why would you mess with one of jason's ships?
Johnny: It was there.
Claudia: We don't need this, johnny. What were you thinking?
Johnny: I try not to do that too much, claudia.
Claudia: You know what this is? It's all about lulu. The only time you don't obsess on her is when your life is on the line.
Johnny: Well, you're good. That's exactly how I feel.
Claudia: I didn't save your life so that you could try to kill yourself for some stupid girl, john, who's not worth your time. I'll be damned if I'm going to lose you to lulu spencer.
Johnny: Not that you asked me, or that you even care, but the last time I saw lulu was at shadybrook. She was being dragged away by orderlies against her will. She begs me for help and I just stood there, didn't do a damn thing.
Claudia: Good for you.
Johnny: And now her brother is going to go tell her that I'm consoling myself with hookers.
Claudia: Well, john, if you weren't such a hot head, playing chicken with cargo ships, i wouldn't have to make up lies to keep you out of trouble.
Johnny: Do you realize how much this is going to hurt her?
Claudia: Look, johnny, i don't -- you know, I know that you don't want to hear this, but hurting your little girlfriend is the best thing that you could do for her.
Johnny: Don't patronize me.
Claudia: John, don't -- listen to me. Ok, look, I really need you to hear me. I know that you are going through hell. It's horrible. You finally find the one thing -- the one thing that you've wanted your entire life that you can't live without, and you realize you can't have it. But you and I, john, we're realists. We look at a situation, it doesn't matter how painful, and we deal with it. You make lulu sick. You understand? You make her ill. And she makes you weak. That's it, bottom line. You cannot be with her again. You --
Johnny: Ok.
Jason: Well, the captain said there was trouble with the speedboat. I want to find out if it was johnny zacchara. Just forget it, bernie. You know what? I'll check it out my --
Maximus: You did good, kid. You did real good. Your old man couldn't have played it any better.
Max: Well, it's not every day that you get save sonny's life.
Maximus: Well, usually, we'll snuff the guy out. Can you get us a few drinks here? You know, it's not smart to go after an enemy life karpov alone. But still, this guy pop one of my wives at a wedding? I would've rung his neck. Thank you, kid.
Max: Sonny's been through a lot.
Maximus: It's a business. And a professional knows when to shut down, stay cold. Emotions make us stupid, and stupid makes us dead.
Jason: Sonny ok?
Max: Yeah.
Maximus: Where you going?
Jason: I'm going to take of that job you wanted me to take care of.
Max: Oh, of course, of course, that job. Could you take care of it, and then please report back to me.
Jason: Right away.
Max: Ok, thank you.
Maximus: That goombah is a little too independent for his station in life. You're either going to bump this guy up, or put him in his place. You want me to take care of it?
Kate: Believe me, olivia, all I've been able to do is lie here in this hospital and think about my future with or without sonny.
Olivia: So basically, you've been laying there, coming up with excuses and justifications for sonny's behavior.
Kate: Hey, you know better than anyone that I have never let anyone else, especially a man, determine my future.
Olivia: Ok, I got to admit I -- I did respect the fact that even as a teenager, you knew that you wanted to follow your dreams more than you wanted to be mrs. Sonny corinthos. Remember when you told me that night that you were going to run away with him, and you -- you packed an overnight bag and you took one last look at your bedroom and that poster you had of the manhattan skyline? You knew that that was the life that you wanted. And there was no place in that life for sonny.
Kate: I thought he didn'T. But I did. I got to live my dream and you didn'T. You got stuck.
Olivia: I didn't get stuck. I love dante.
Kate: Oh, olivia, I don't mean that disrespectfully, but it turned your life upside down.
Olivia: I like upside down. I like unpredictable. You -- you're the one that always wants the I's dotted and the t's crossed. You know, you -- you make a plan and you stick to it.
Kate: That was a long time ago.
Olivia: Yeah, well, people don't change, fundamentally. You couldn't have your cake and eat it, too, back then. And you can't have it now. Only -- only then, you were choosing between sonny and your career. Honey, this time, you're choosing between sonny and your life.
Kate: And it would be inconvenient, right, if I were with sonny?
Olivia: You stay with sonny, the next time, I'll be visiting your grave.
Kate: I don't know, olivia. Maybe -- maybe you're just worried. Maybe you're worried that if I'm with sonny, that I might give in and tell him that you two have a son.
[Knock on door]
Alexis: Hi. Sorry for dragging you down here.
Diane: Oh, not to worry. I was at home nursing a bruised bottom. It's a long story. It's not really worth the -- ok, so what is your crisis du jour?
Alexis: I'm not sure if I need you as a lawyer or as a friend.
Diane: I can do both.
Alexis: All right then first, tell me what I need to do legally, and then tell me what i need to do as a mother.
Diane: You do realize that I do not have a maternal bone in my body.
Alexis: I know that, but I trust you as a friend and I trust your instincts.
Diane: Did anthony threaten kristina again? Because I can promise you, I can mount a very compelling defense based on temporary insanity if you decide you want to kill him.
Alexis: Nobody would fall for that a second time. This is about sam.
Diane: Oh, dear. The last time you brought up sam's name, she was hitting on your bad boy. Am I to assume that jerry is now reciprocating?
Alexis: Not that I know of. He's been just peachy and very protective of me.
Diane: That would make me nervous.
Alexis: Not as nervous as this.
Diane: It appears your daughter has dealings with a russian mobster.
Alexis: And I want to know what the hell I'm supposed to do about it.
Karpov: Here it is, exactly as we discussed. You had better be right about this.
Jerry: It's all coming together beautifully. In a few days, the situation will be contained and you will be able to operate at maximum capacity.
Diane: May I ask why you had sam followed?
Alexis: I didn'T. I had karpov followed.
Diane: Better start at the beginning.
Alexis: I was following up on kate's shooting, and naturally, sonny wouldn't give a statement to the police, so I thought i could get him to give me one.
Diane: I know my client. He would never talk about any legal matter with you without me present.
Alexis: He didn't, but olivia did.
Diane: The cousin from bensonhurst?
Alexis: Yep.
Diane: She had no business yelling at kate on her wedding day. Someone should've stopped her. I still have guilt.
Alexis: She redeemed herself by telling me everything that she saw and heard after the shooting. And she told me that sonny thinks karpov ordered the shot.
Diane: So naturally, you called karpov in for questioning.
Alexis: Yeah, and he stonewalled me, of course, so I had him followed. And then I got these back. Then jerry tells me that he saw sam on the waterfront a couple of times, and she told him that she was looking for work.
Diane: Ok, give me your worst case scenario.
Alexis: That she's smuggling drugs for karpov.
Diane: And you think sam knows what the cargo is?
Alexis: I don't know. I mean, maybe she supposedly came on to jerry because she was afraid he saw something and was trying to shut him up by seducing him.
Diane: Well, I'm sorry to say, but you have constructed a very logical, a very plausible theory based on all the evidence at hand. All the pieces fit.
Alexis: Diane, she could be working for a man who's not only a drug smuggler, but has no problem having a woman shot on her wedding day just to make a point.
Diane: If sam weren't your daughter, what would you do?
Alexis: I would go to a judge and I would petition for a warrant. I know -- I know, all right? I know that I shouldn't treat her any differently than I treat anybody else. I know it's an abuse of power.
Diane: Ok, but she is your daughter. And as her mother, you have every right to go to sam and --
Alexis: I can'T.
Diane: And ask her to explain her actions. Ok, fine, all right. I have just given you my legal opinion. Now I'm going to weigh in as your friend. Alexis, go see sam and see if she says anything that puts your mind at ease. You have go to exhaust all possibilities. Putting your daughter in jail -- arresting your daughter, should be a last resort.
Jerry: I think it's wise to keep a low profile after the big red splash that sonny's fiancee made at her wedding.
Karpov: You think I shot her?
Jerry: I think that volatility is very good for business. So, schedule shipments, type of product, personnel, hmm?
Karpov: You now have full responsibility. Any failure will be yours.
Jerry: Keep paying me on time, and we'll have no problem.
Olivia: I am not having this conversation, connie.
Kate: I -- I don't know if keeping a promise I made to you when we were teenagers is fair to sonny -- or dante, for that matter.
Olivia: Do you think it's fair for dante to all of a sudden find out that his father is one of the biggest gangsters on the eastern seaboard?
Kate: But if sonny really did quit --
Olivia: Oh, god, you're deluding yourself, connie. But I'm not even worried about it. And you want to know why?
Kate: Why?
Olivia: Because I know I'm not going to tell. And I don't think you're going to tell, either, because I know that you are in love with sonny. And even though I'm praying that you will walk away from him, i know that you couldn't stand it for him to hate you. And he would hate you if he knew that the whole time you were rekindling this big love affair, oh, you just forgot to tell him that your cousin olivia's boy just -- just happens to be his son.
Kate: Ok, so what are you doing, olivia? What, are you threatening me? Huh? Are you saying that the only way that I can hold on to sonny's love is to keep the secret of his son?
Olivia: We both know that father and son are better off if this secret stays hidden.
Carly: I love a family secret.
Milo: Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa. You can't go in there.
Claudia: Bite me. Hey, you know, I know you had a problem with your shipment --
Maximus: Hey, max, I don't know how you do it, but I got to hand it to you. You got the best looking broads busting into your office. Who's this? Your ex-girlfriend or your
[Speaks italian] On the side?
Sonny: What do you want?
Jason: Well, you have no guards.
Sonny: Yeah, because max and milo are busy.
Jason: Yeah, I know -- I know that. You have a gun?
Sonny: Do I need one?
Jason: Not because of me. Karpov is a whole other story, sonny.
Sonny: I hope he does come after me.
Jason: You should never have gone after him alone.
Sonny: I didn't have a choice. You wouldn't help me.
