Monday, April 21: Part 1 Carly: I'm here. Jax is here. There's nothing to be afraid of, ok? You're going to be ok. Michael? You look at me, baby. It's mommy. Can you hear me?
Kate: You're parading around town with a virtual target painted on your back. You're showing up in places with little or no security. I thought that you were done punishing yourself for what happened to michael. I thought that you were going to try to find a way to go on living.
Sonny: That's what i'm trying to do.
Kate: Then why are you here?
Sonny: Because i have a business to run.
Kate: I've met your foreman, sonny. Tom is more than capable of handling the day-to-day operations on his own. You do not need to be here to oversee every single shipment while your son is laying in a hospital.
Sonny: I'm -- i need to keep busy.
Kate: No, you need to grieve --
Sonny: I --
Kate: As any parent would.
Sonny: I got michael shot! It's up to me to get justice for my son.
Jason: I -- i've seen the bank records. You had $10 million wired into an account, offshore, set up by ian devlin. That's a lot of money, nikolas. What was it for?
Nikolas: What does that have to do with michael's shooting?
Jason: I don't know. I'm not going to know until you answer the question.
Nikolas: You -- you really wouldn't understand.
Jason: If you know something about this guy, i need to know, ok? Why did you wire that money into his account?
Nikolas: It was the only way i could see emily.
Jerry: I've heard these kinds of wounds are excruciating and impossible to repair, even for a great plastic surgeon, which you clearly are. I mean, my new face is a testament to your technical prowess with a scalpel. However, i think that you may find it rather difficult to detach yourself, so to speak, from this particular case. So if you prefer that i shoot you in the brain to spare you the great pain and humiliation, speak now, please. No? All right. Oh, i can't bear to watch.
Jerry: Oh, dear, dear. Well, the odds seem to be in your favor this time. Should we do it again?
Ian: Are you out of your mind? This is a hospital. Anyone could walk in here.
Jerry: Yes, which could drastically reduce your chances of losing an appendage. Come on, be a sport.
Ian: If you're so worried about being tied to this shooting, try to show some discretion.
Jerry: Like you did last night at the haunted star? Or this morning by paying a visit to claudia zacchara?
Ian: We had some unfinished business to attend to.
Jerry: So do we. If sonny corinthos even glimmers that you shot little michael in the head, i will put a bullet in yours before you bring my name into it. You understand? Good. Now dry yourself off.
Nikolas: When i came home from emily's funeral... She was there... In her ball gown. I know. At first, i thought it was -- i thought i was dreaming or maybe it was a manifestation of -- of my grief. I don't know. She was real, jason. I could -- i could see her. I could talk to her. I could even -- i could touch her. And it didn't make sense to me at the time. It just -- it just didn't matter.
Jason: How does -- how does devlin fit in?
Nikolas: Well, he has access to an experimental -- an experimental medication that can lessen some of the other side effects, allowing me to keep seeing emily.
Jason: Well, why wouldn't you just ask patrick or robin?
Nikolas: Because the medication's in a -- in a trial stage and it's not approved for use in this country.
Jason: So devlin's providing illegal drugs. Do you know who he's working for?
Johnny: I thought i told you to stay away from my father.
Ric: You made a very compelling argument. The armed thugs were a nice touch. However, your desire to see anthony locked up does not outweigh his right to an attorney.
Claudia: My father is an evil bastard who deserves to burn in hell for everything that he has done.
Ric: I understand. Mr. Zacchara was a very, very sick man.
Claudia: There's no past tense about it. Anthony zacchara is a twisted, sadistic freak. And if you get him released... You won't live to regret it.
Ric: Miss zacchara, i realize you've been gone for some time and this must come as quite a shock. But i can assure you your father is not responsible for his previous actions.
Claudia: How much is my father paying you?
Ric: Anthony was diagnosed with a mental illness and he has since undergone treatment. I have a whole team of doctors who can assure me that your father is a changed man.
Johnny: I don't care how many doctors you have, ric, or papers you file. My father stays locked up.
Kate: I'm not sure if you're trying to seek justice or revenge. I don't think you know either. Sonny, if you want to help michael, go talk to his doctors, research other treatment options, sit down with carly and figure out what the best way is to help your son.
Sonny: Ok. I know that you're trying to help, but this is something that i -- that i have to do on my own.
Kate: Why?
Sonny: What -- what do you mean, why?
Kate: What possible good can come from avenging michael? It's not going to change what happened. It's certainly not going to heal your son.
Sonny: But it will send a clear message to my enemies not to come after anybody that i care about again.
Kate: Sonny, what happened was a terrible accident.
Sonny: You -- you were here, kate! My son was here. They may not have been aiming at my son, but they -- they did it anyway. I can't -- I can't let that go.
Kate: So you're just going to make the situation worse for everyone around you.
Jax: So how's he doing?
Patrick: There's no change.
Carly: How can you say that? Michael's eyes are open.
Patrick: It was an involuntary reflex. Michael's not responding to light or painful stimuli. His eyes are open, but he's still not conscious.
Jax: So you're saying he's still in a coma.
Patrick: I wish i had better news, but michael's prognosis hasn't changed.
Carly: No! He opened his eyes. He's trying to come back to us.
Patrick: I know this is difficult to understand --
carly: You know what, you don't know my son. You don't know my son. He is getting better.
Patrick: You can get a second opinion, but any doctor that examines michael is going to tell you the same thing. Excuse me.
Carly: I want a specialist. I want someone in here who is familiar with michael's injuries and who is committed to helping him make progress. That's what i want.
Jax: It's -- it's not progress, carly.
Carly: His eyes are open.
Jax: I know, but you heard dr. Drake. He said that it was a reflex.
Carly: It's a sign.
Michael is a fighter. And we cannot give up on him, jax. Sam: Hey, what do you think you're doing?
Spinelli: Fair samantha, greetings. It is -- hey, it is good to see you -- see you looking so agile. I assume the recovery regimen is going well.
Sam: I assume so. I am actually here on my very last visit, thank you.
Spinelli: Well, i appreciate the salutation, but, you know, you really should stretch before all physical exertion.
Sam: Come on, nice try. What are you up to?
Spinelli: I was just looking for an update on michael for his uncle. That's all.
Sam: Jason's been here day and night. He knows exactly how michael's doing.
Spinelli: Yeah, but he only knows what the medicinal ones are willing to divulge and that's all been news of a dark nature, so i thought maybe i could find a little hope on michael's chart.
Sam: Listen, spinelli, the doctors are doing everything that they can. We are all worried about michael, but all we can do now is wait, ok?
Maxie: Spinelli, i've been looking all over for you. Don't -- don't you check your phone? Don't shush me.
Spinelli: Ok, look, the wounded and somewhat strident blond one's boisterous nature is drawing undue attention to the jackal's activities.
Maxie: Oh, well, whatever it is that you're doing, drop it. I have an emergency.
Nikolas: I have no reason to believe that dr. Devlin is involved in anything criminal other than providing me with a drug that's technically illegal in this country.
Jason: He charged you $10 million.
Nikolas: I know. I know, but since i've been -- since i've been taking it, i haven't had one episode of rage or a blackout or anything. And i don't -- i don't see emily as much as i -- as much as i would like to, but i still can see her. And to me, that's worth and amount of money.
Jason: This guy's preying on your desperation to make a profit.
Nikolas: What do you want me to do? Is it -- is it wrong for me to want to take this drug? Is it wrong for me to pay any amount of money to keep seeing emily?
Jason: I don't know. I don't. I mean, i know how much you loved her. If i could take a pill and see emily again, i'm not sure i would turn it down either.
Nikolas: All right. Well, thanks.
[Door opens and closes]
Kate: Anything that you do to avenge michael will be at the expense oyour other children, sonny. The violence will escalate Morgan and kristina will be caught in the middle of a mob war. Is that what you want? You want them hurt or even killed?
Sonny: If... If i don't retaliate, it will be a sign of weakness.
Kate: Well, it's better to weak, sonny, than dead.
Sonny: I'm not fighting with you on this.
Kate: I'm sorry. Do you expect me to just stand back and watch you throw your life away? What? That is what you'll be doing.
Sonny: That's not what i'm doing. You don't know understand what i'm doing.
Diane: I'm sure you didn't call me down here to see my fabulous new designer bag. Thank you very much.
Sonny: It's business.
Diane: Mm-hmm.
Kate: Fine, i'll leave you toit.
Sonny: Ok.
Diane: While i've got you, do you by any chance have a pair of those --
Kate: I'll have neela's people call you.
Diane: Yeah, thank you.
[Door slams]
Diane: That woman is fabulous. And you should stop seeing her immediately because the fashion world cannot afford to lose kate howard, but -- but you can.
Sonny: Who are you to be giving relationship advice?
Diane: I'm your attorney.
Sonny: Well, as my attorney, you shouldn't be sleeping with my bodyguard.
Ric: I can see why you would want things to remain as they are. I mean, after all, you are the big man right now, the one with the power and respect. I mean, if anthony were released, he would want all that back.
Claudia: That's not going to happen.
Rick: Really? Your father has been released from a maximum security prison and moved to a private psychiatric facility with not so much as guard standing at his door And after this hearing, there is a very, very real possibility that he's going to be released altogether. Perhaps you should prepare for that possibility now.
Claudia: Schizophrenia is the best thing that ever happened to my father or his family. Everyone was better off when he was just insane, because in his right mind, my dad is lethal. He will love you one minute and he will turn on you the next. The best thing for everyone, including you, would be to leave him there until he rots.
Ric: Now, that's not a very nice thing to say.
Johnny: It's the truth.
Ric: I thought you might feel that way. That's why i had the court petition to suspend your visitation. You know, i'm starting to think that anthony's children don't really have his best interests at heart.
Claudia: He can't get out.
Johnny: He won't. I'll make sure of it.
[door opens]
Ric: How do you like the view?
Anthony: The roses are a big improvement from the ceiling i've been staring at for the last five months. But they don't compare to the ones i got in my garden at home.
Ric: One step at a time.
Anthony: I don't like to be kept waiting.
Ric: Look, i'm pushing through your release as fast as i can, anthony, which is no small feat considering you're a confessed killer. I'd be very happy that you're here instead of in a prison cell.
Anthony: I was a sick man when i did those things. I'm well now. I want to be with my family.
Ric: Well, your family has much different plans.
Anthony: Be specific. That's what a lawyer's for.
Ric: Claudia and john are determined to do whatever it takes to keep you locked away for the rest of your life.
Claudia: Ever since trevor took control of those waterfront piers, i understand ric has been looking for a way to get back at him. What better way than by letting daddy out?
Johnny: We can block this.
Claudia: How? You heard him. He's been declared a ward of the court, john. He's already been transfered to another facility.
Johnny: Ok, ric has one attorney. We can afford 20. We'll do whatever it takes to make sure dad stays locked up.
Claudia: He's not just some crazy old man anymore, john, who's going on about his roses. If he's got his mind back, then he's not just sane, he's smart. And he knows the best way to control you is to get rid of me.
Sonny: Hey, max, get in here for a second.
Max: Do you need something, boss? Ms. Miller -- oh!
Sonny: You see that?
[Diane laughs]
Diane: You are basing these ridiculous assumptions on max's propensity for two left feet?
Sonny: Well, he walks perfectly well when he's around me. And then he gets around you --
Diane: Max, would you please tell sonny that his assumptions are completely unfounded?
Sonny: Max, are you sleeping with diane?
Max: Well, boss, "sleeping with" tends to imply that there's an ongoing --
Sonny: Just say yes or no. Answer the question.
Max: Yes, and it was the best sex of my life. Ms. Miller is incredible.
diane: Well -- well, thank you, max, and likewise, i'm very, very sure.
Max: Thank you.
Diane: But it remains that that is none of sonny's business.
Carly: I know you're tired, baby.You had such a big day. It's ok to sleep. You did so good opening your eyes, and i know you're going to open them again. You are so brave and you are so strong and you're a fighter, just like me. But i need you to keep fighting, because i know you're going to come back to me. You're almost there. Michael, you're almost there.
[Knock on door]
sam: I'm sorry to interrupt.
Carly: Then don't.
Sam: Carly, look, i just -- i came to see if you needed anything, maybe coffee, something to eat --
carly: You know, you don't have to be nice to me. I don't want your pity and michael doesn't want it either.
Sam: No, look, i am not here to give you pity. I'm concerned about michael.
Carly: Don't be. Don't be. I mean, michael is getting better. And you and everyone else need to stop acting like he has a terminal illness or his life is over, because it's not. My son is fine. He's fine.
Jax: Hey, you have a minute?
Jason: Actually, i was on my way to the hospital. How's carly doing?
Jax: That's what i wanted to talk to you about, about carly.
Jason: Oh, ok.
Jax: You were with her when i couldn't be, through michael's surgery and when the doctors told her the prognosis.
Jason: Yeah, you know, i did -- i did what i could.
Jax: Yeah, and i appreciate that. What concerns me is how carly is taking the news. You saw her at the hospital, jason. I mean, she's still in complete denial.
Jason: It's -- it's hard, you know, it's hard to accept what the doctors are saying at this point.
Jax: Yeah, especially when michael just opened his eyes. Patrick said -- patrick said that it was just a -- a reflex. Of course, carly's taking it as a sign that he's getting better and that he's going to wake up and be the same little boy that he was before the shooting. I can't get through to her, and i was hoping that you could.
