Monday, Feb. 18, 2008 - Part 1

Patrick
: Nikolas? Ok, we need to get him sedated and into a treatment --


Elizabeth
: Wait -- he's remembering.


Patrick
: Elizabeth, we can't -


Elizabeth
: Just a minute, please. He's seeing who killed Emily.


Nikolas
' voice: You have to leave.


Emily
: No.


Nikolas
: I can't protect you anymore. You can't stay here!


Emily
: Nikolas, I never should've left you.


Nikolas
: Don't you understand? I'm the one who -


Emily
: No, Nikolas, you would never hurt me!


Nikolas
: But you have to leave! You have to leave right now!


Emily
: No, no, I'm staying here! Nikolas, I'm staying here.


Nikolas
: Do you understand me?


Emily
: Nikolas! Ah.


[Emily gags]


Nikolas
: Emily? Get up, Emily, please.


Lulu: What is this? Stay away from me! Stay away from me. Tell me what this is.


Logan
: It's a piggyback device so you can leave -


Lulu: So you can leave untraceable text messages?


Logan
: Lulu, let me -- let me explain.


Lulu: Oh, my god! Oh, my god, they were right -- you are the text message killer.


Johnny
: Hey, either of you seen Lulu?


Spinelli: No, but we have seen your sister, and The Jackal's eyes are burning with hotness.


[Spinelli chuckles]


Johnny
: You're looking up pictures of my sister on the internet, you sick son of --


Jason
: Hey, hey. Just leave him alone.


Sonny: Skye Quatermaine Chan -- I don't know, whatever she calls herself -- she didn't just vanish into thin air. Find her, she has something I want. Whew.


Claudia
: So there are things you want.


Claudia
: Good thing I didn't come empty-handed.


Sonny: What are you doing here?


Claudia
: Oh, I know you're a lot of things, especially in bed, but I don't think naive is one of them.


Sonny: I don't see a bed here -- do you?


Claudia
: I don't need a bed. Who needs a bed? Do you need a bed?


[Carly sighs]


[Clanging noise]


[Thud]


Jax: Carly! Oh, my -- are you ok?


Carly: I don't know. Man. I was just walking by and I got really queasy and then my legs gave out.


Jax: You sure you weren't hit?


Carly: Hit by what? What are you doing here?


Jax: I came here to look at the -- the property with you. I just heard a gunshot. Are you sure you're ok?


Michael
: Oh, my god.


Claudia
: Ah.


Sonny: We're not doing this.


Claudia
: Huh. I thought we were doing just fine.


Sonny: Why here, why now?


Claudia
: Why do we need a special reason?


Sonny: You're Claudia Zacchara, I'm Sonny Corinthos -- it doesn't work that way.


Claudia
: Come on, just think if you had said that the first night -- all the fun we would've missed out on? Would that have made it hotter for you?


Sonny: Huh. If I didn't know any better, I'd figure you knew who I was that night we met. But then I saw the look on your face that you tried to hide when you walked into the meeting with the five families.


Claudia
: Well, I have a lot of other surprises for you.


Sonny: That's what I'm worried about.


Patrick
: Ok, this is enough. We can't let this go on.


Elizabeth
: He could come out of this remembering who killed Emily.


Patrick
: Or he could die.


[Emily gags]


Emily
: Ah!


Ian
: What the hell is wrong with you people?


Nikolas
: I can almost -- I can almost see it. Let me -- let me see it.


Ian
: I need to get two milligrams of lorazepam and two and a half milligrams of haloperidol. Don't just stand there. We need to get him stable in a treatment room and on a gurney -- stat! Get a couple of orderlies if you have to, but get moving. Go!


Elizabeth
: Wait, wait. He's seeing his fiancée's death, he's seeing who really killed her.


Ian
: Yeah? And if he keeps on seeing it this way, he won't see anything else ever again.


Nikolas
: Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.


Logan
: I'm not the killer, Lulu.


Lulu: Everything, all this stuff says that you are. Spinelli and Maxie think that you are.


Logan
: Why would you listen to them about anything?


Lulu: I didn't want to. I -- I -- I told Spinelli he was being ridiculous and I just came here -


Logan
: To prove them wrong?


Lulu: To prove them wrong.


Logan
: Why should you believe me? You want to think the worst of me anyway -- it makes the decision to run back to Johnny that much easier.


Lulu: The only place that I'm going to is the police.


Logan
: No, I can't let you go.


[Muffled screams]


Logan
: Lulu -- shh, shh -- quiet!


Lulu: Oh, oh.


Logan
: All right? It's not going to do you any good to scream -- just listen. One of the neighbors is on vacation, the other one's as deaf as a post, so just hear me out, ok?


Lulu: Oh, let me go.


Logan
: Just -- I can't, I can't, not until you calm down and let me explain, all right? It was not supposed to happen like this.


Lulu: Like what?


Logan
: Any of this -- it was not supposed to happen like this!


Lulu: I'm sure it wasn't.


Logan
: Look, listen to me, I can explain everything that's in here, ok? I just -- I need you to tell me what you think you know.


Lulu: Why should I?


Logan
: Because I cannot defend myself unless know why you think I'm guilty -- just tell me.


Lulu: What do you want me to tell you?


Logan
: Just start with why Maxie and Spinelli think it's me.


Lulu: Because they think that Coop was on to the real killer and that's why he was murdered, and you were the last person to see him alive, and they found your dog tags in his room. Why were your dog tags in his room?


Logan
: Because -- Coop found them in the park where Georgie was murdered.


Johnny
: What do you want with Claudia anyway?


Jason
: I had Spinelli look up your sister. Sonny met her at the meeting.


Johnny
: What meeting?


Jason
: She called the meeting with the five families -- you didn't know?


Johnny
: Looks like Trevor's working her over already.


Jason
: Ok, I've only -- I've met her now twice and I'm starting to wonder who's working who.


Johnny
: Ok, right now, Claudia and Trevor can feed on each other and choke for all I care. I need to know -- have either of you seen Lulu?


Spinelli: Um -- yes. The fair one was here and she left most distressed.


Johnny
: Distressed, what -- what do you mean, "distressed"?


Spinelli: I -- I couldn't stop myself. I wanted to warn her of all the things that jackal, P.I., and the wounded blond one had found in their search for the text message killer.


Jason
: Ok, and what -- what did you tell her?

Spinelli: That we think Logan could be the killer?


Jason
: You -- you said that without proof, Spinelli?


Maxie: Ah, Spinelli? We were right -- Logan's the killer.


Ian
: Call nuclear medicine, find out how long it will take to set up a P.E.T. scan and follow him to radiology. I want an M.R.I. with contrast and make sure they push him to the front of the line and get those studies back to me stat -- now, nurse! Pretend like you work in a hospital and move.


Patrick
: Ian, Nikolas is my patient.


Ian
: Well, then maybe you should've been acting more like a doctor instead of a tabloid reporter trying to bleed a juicy story out of him.


Robin
: You're not being fair to Patrick.


Ian
: Do you really think that what you were doing to that man, your friend, was fair? What was one of the first lessons of medicine that we were taught? "First, do no harm," and what you were doing was causing harm to that patient. Medicine is an obligation, it is a sacred trust, and you are obligated to act in the best interests of the patient. That means that your decision making is free from emotional involvement or any distraction that distorts your judgment, their best interests meaning you -- you administer care to a patient without asking for their insurance card or their bank account before you pick them up off the floor -- their best interest, so that you pledge to act without involving yourself in petty hospital politics about which doctor gets to cut to the head of the line to play the hero.


Elizabeth
: But Nikolas has blamed himself for Emily's death, and for him to realize that he didn't do it -


Ian
: Yeah, will serve no one including his young son if he does. No matter how important his self-realization might be, it's meaningless if he does. Get our priorities straight. Our purpose here is to practice medicine, not indulge in wishful thinking.


Robin
: Devlin was way out of line.


Patrick
: Slightly.


Elizabeth
: Has he always been like that?


Patrick
: No. Something's changed -- I don't know what it is, though.


Jerry
: Hello. It appears that a lot has happen since I last saw you. I can only apologize and hope that -


Alexis
: Don't you dare apologize to me because there is nothing that you can say that will excuse what you did.


Carly: Are you sure you heard a gunshot? I mean, I must've passed out first. Maybe it was a car backfiring or something.


Jax: No, no, it was a gunshot. Here, sit down. Take some weight off your feet.


Carly: Oh.


Jax: Are you going to be ok here for a little while?


Carly: Yeah, I'm fine.


Jax: I'm just going to take a look around, ok?


Carly: No, don't.


Sonny: What do you want here?


Claudia
: I think that's pretty obvious.


Sonny: Your body's obvious. Your mind is something else. So are these games you're playing. We're not two strangers who went bump into the night anymore. You called a meeting of the five families. You're Anthony Zacchara's daughter.


Claudia
: I have my own identity. It has nothing to do with my father or anything he's done in his life.


Sonny: His blood is in you, and his lust for power's in you, and -- and maybe his madness is in you, too.


Claudia
: My father wasn't always crazy.


Sonny: How did you come into this world?


Claudia
: Pathetic.


Sonny: Oh.


Claudia
: Controllable. But I'm in the fast lane now, and a good rush is as good as a hit of oxygen.


Sonny: Like your brother?


Claudia
: Nothing like my brother. I'm not like my father. I'm not like anybody you've ever met. I'm especially not like that bloodless stick Kate Howard.


[Michael pants]


Jason
's voice: Holding a gun doesn't make you a man.


Sonny's voice: You don't come near a gun, that's final.


Jason
's voice: If you take a life, you have no idea -


Sonny's voice: If I ever see you with your hands near a gun, you'd better turn and keep running.


Carly: No, I don't want you walking around, I just want you to take me home, ok?


Jax: No, no, no, I'm going to take you straight to General Hospital, have you checked out. I'm not taking any chances with you or the baby. Come on.


Lulu: Huh.


Logan
: I was in the park the night Georgie was killed.


Lulu: That, I believe.


Logan
: Lulu, I didn't kill Georgie. Had no reason to kill her.


Lulu: She thought she was on to Coop, and we were all there in Kelly's, but she was baiting you on, trying to get a reaction about the woman who was strangled overseas. She had no idea how close to the real killer she was. And you lied to her -- you said that you didn't know anything.


Logan
: No! You lied to me. You lied to me! You lied to me that night at Kelly's, you lied to me down at the pier, you lied to me about Elizabeth -- just so you could go be with Johnny! Now, that night, I was ticked. I was. I went to the park. I was hating my life. I -- I was hating the fact that Scott abandoned me and my mother, that I joined the army because I had something to prove. What I had seen over there -- I ripped the dog tags off and I threw them on the ground, I walked out of the park.


Lulu: What about Georgie?


Logan
: I never saw Georgie, Lulu. All right? I never saw her, but Coop did. Ok? He grabbed her, he tried to get her out of the park. She freaked out on him. She scratched him. That's where the D.N.A. came from. That's why he stole the test.


Lulu: Maxie was right. Coop was innocent.


Logan
: Yes, he was, but he didn't think anybody would believe him.


Lulu: But you did, and that's why you murdered him.


Logan
: Oh, god.


Lulu: It wasn't enough that -- that -- that you couldn't keep him quiet about finding the dog tags and implicating you, but you had the perfect scapegoat for all of your murders.


Logan
: Why? Why then would I go attack Alexis?


Lulu: I don't know, maybe because you can't help yourself. You're very, very sick, obviously. And you saw Georgie and Coop in the park, and then you went back to kill her, just like you killed Emily, and -- and you killed Leticia, and you tried to kill Maxie!


Logan
: I didn't kill any of them. I didn't touch them!


Lulu: How do you explain these?


Maxie: Ok, so Spinelli and I found this pill in coop's room, but we couldn't identify it, so I took it to robin. She didn't know what it was, but there was this new doctor who works at the hospital. He said it was like some sort of experimental pill for people with bad livers or something.


Spinelli: Well, I mean, the crabby commando could be hepatically challenged. I mean, it would certainly explain his bilious nature.


Jason
: That does not prove anything.


Maxie: Wait, I'm not done yet. The doctor also said this pill -- it, like, pumps up your energy. And when you take it, it makes your skin smell sweet. And when I was attacked, that's all I could remember. That the guy -- he smelled sweet.


Spinelli: So whoever's taking the pill -


Johnny
: Could be the killer.


Jason
: That does -- that does not make it Logan.


Johnny
: Why are you defending him?


Jason
: I'm not. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt like I gave you.


[Phone rings]


Jason
: Hey.


Elizabeth
: Hey, it's me.


Jason
: What's going on?


Elizabeth
: I just thought you should know, Nikolas had a seizure. He said he was seeing who really killed Emily.


Emily
: Do you know what happened to you?


Nikolas
: No. I just started seeing these awful images of you from that night when you were killed.


Emily
: But you didn't do it, did you?


Nikolas
: No. No, I didn't kill you.


Nadine
: Do you remember who did?
