Patrick: Thank you very much for the scrambled eggs. They were delicious.
Robin: You're welcome. Aren't you impressed that I made them?
Patrick: A step up from the cereal we've had the last month.
Robin: I know. Oh, wait. Wait, wait, wait. Drink your juice. You need the vitamin C. Flu season is coming.
Patrick: Yes, mom. You're in a good mood today.
Robin: Why shouldn't I be?
Patrick: Well, Emma had us both up last night.
Robin: I know, I know. But I am having new confidence in my mothering abilities.
Patrick: So, it went well yesterday?
Robin: Yes. You should have seen your daughter in the car, just bobbing her little head around. She fell asleep with a smile on her face.
Patrick: Did she?
Robin: Yeah. I mean, I know they say that babies this age don't actually smile, but I think she was smiling. And then we went to the hospital, and she was great. We went to Uncle Mac's. She was great. We had a really good day.
Patrick: Good. So, you're ready for another day?
Robin: Yes. Looking forward to it.
Nikolas: Hey, you promised me a ride around the property. Let's go. I'm ready to go.
Nadine: Oh, well, you're not in your fancy English riding clothes.
Nikolas: I can manage. I'll even ride western if that's what you prefer.
Nadine: Oh, believe me, by the time we're done that's what you'll prefer as well.
Nikolas: Are you going take me to all the places you went when you were growing up?
Nadine: Sure, but it might be kind of boring.
Nikolas: Not to me it won't.
Nadine: Okay. Yeah. We can go just as soon as I finish my chores.
Nikolas: Well, let me help you.
Nadine: Nikolas, you don't do chores.
Johnny: Hi.
Lulu: Hi. We're never going to watch a horror movie ever again.
Johnny: Why?
Lulu: Why?
Johnny: [Using a monster voice] Was there a problem?
Lulu: No, God.
[Johnny growls]
Lulu: No, that does not scare me. That does not scare me, because "A," it's day time and B, the hand was very charred in the movie.
Johnny: Well, admit it, you had fun.
Lulu: I did. I did have fun. I got to spend the whole night with you, thanks to Maxie working at "Crimson" all night.
Johnny: Remind me to thank her.
Jax: Sorry to interrupt. Home sweet home. I'm afraid I'm going to need my place back.
Jason: Okay, I want an updated search on the properties acquired by the Russians.
Spinelli: Yes, I shall eagerly oblige, but in the mean time --
Jason: Okay, I want to know about shipments, off-loadings, any activity in the harbor and on the docks.
Spinelli: Yeah, and it shall be ascertained, posthaste --
Jason: Including all warehouse activity.
Spinelli: That was understood, but may I explain --
Maxie: Morning.
Alice: Mr. Luke, what an unexpected pleasure. Welcome.
Luke: Thank you.
Edward: Hey, why aren't you in the Dominican Republic reuniting with Tracy?
Luke: She isn't here?
Edward: Don't you double talk me. You were supposed to be together.
Luke: We were. I thought I was getting through to her. You mean she isn't home yet?
Alice: You better sit down, Mr. Luke. It doesn't look like things went well for you.
Edward: He's hung over, plain and simple.
Luke: Well, I may be a little under the weather from over-imbibition.
Alice: How about a hair of the dog?
Luke: No, Alice. No hair. I will have a double margarita or -- no, make it a bloody Mary.
Edward: So, what's the last time that you saw Tracy?
Luke: Last night. We were playing cards. She's a hell of a card shark. Did you know that? Then after a drink or six, I was sort of off my game.
Edward: So you passed out?
Luke: When I came to she was gone.
Alice: She didn't leave a note, any kind of promises of endearment?
Luke: Nada.
Edward: You drunken deadbeat. You have allowed my fiend of a daughter to slip right through your fingers, and by now, she has probably found a courtroom in the Dominican Republic and has a divorce.
Robin: See? I'm getting a little bit better at this, don't you think?
Patrick: You're getting the hang of it.
Robin: You know, the baby book said that the digestive tracts of babies take weeks, sometimes months for newborns digestive tracts to develop. So, all of that crying, it could have just been Emma's stomach and intestines completing their development.
Patrick: Well, maybe that's what it was.
Robin: There is a medical explanation for almost everything.
Patrick: Are you going to be okay by yourself?
Robin: Yeah. I'll be fine.
Patrick: Okay, I will be at the hospital and my phone is on if you need me.
Robin: Okay. If you get a chance, could you ask Epiphany to check on Mrs. Jessup? She's been receiving an experimental treatment and I just want to make sure that she's on track.
Patrick: You know, if you're missing work --
Robin: Well, I am, but I really wanted to take time off work and just me a mom. And I've been so nervous and worried up until this point, I haven't actually been able to enjoy it. So, now I can relax.
Patrick: Oh, yeah? What are you going to do today?
Robin: We'll go to the park.
Patrick: Yeah? Okay, well, have fun.
Robin: Okay.
Patrick: I'll see you later.
Robin: Bye.
Robin: Okay, Emma girl, it's just you and me. You still sleeping? Good. Okay, Mommy is going to change her clothes while you sleep. I'll be right back.
[Emma crying]
Nadine: No offense, but I can probably get through the chores more quickly on my own.
Nikolas: Sorry, it's bad manners to sit idle while the lady does all the work, and you know how I feel about my manners.
Nadine: Come on. Admit it; you've probably never done a chore in your life.
Nikolas: I've taken care of my own horses before, thank you.
Nadine: Yeah, with the groomers right by your side, ready to take over when you want to go into the house for your afternoon tea.
Nikolas: Is that still your impression of me, the rich, spoiled prince?
Nadine: No, I have to admit, for a prince, you are remarkably unspoiled, but still, I've never seen you do any manual labor of any kind.
Nikolas: Okay, fine. I admit it. I've had servants for the greater part of my life, but I'm strong, I'm coordinated, I think I'm, I don't know, reasonably intelligent. And I'm eager to learn. So, teach me. Come on.
Nadine: Well, I just don't know why you'd want to. I mean, chickens pecking at your feet, and a pig sty is just as filthy as advertised.
Nikolas: Right, all things that you've done while growing up. So, consider it part of me getting to know you better.
Nadine: I think you already know me fairly well.
Nikolas: Why are you resisting this? Are you afraid I'll show you up?
Nadine: No. Now you're pushing it.
Nikolas: Come on. I want to try. Let me help.
Nadine: What you're also not saying is "how hard can it be?"
Nikolas: No comment.
Nadine: Okay, well, be careful what you wish for.
Johnny: You want to throw me out? On what grounds?
Jax: None whatsoever, actually. It's just that you and your sister wouldn't have been my first choice of tenant. You did pay your rent on time.
Lulu: Then you can't throw him out.
Johnny: Lulu's right. My lease isn't up yet.
Jax: If you read the fine print, you'll see I have the right to revoke it at anytime. Of course, I'll refund your deposit.
Lulu: I'm sorry; I don't understand why you would want this place back. You have a whole entire hotel to live in.
Jax: Well, unfortunately, Carly lives there as well, and it is making it a little difficult. We both need some space. You see, this penthouse represented a life before Carly. So, I would like you to vacate as soon as possible.
Spinelli: Maximista's nocturnal sojourn is easily explained --
Maxie: I can tell by the blank look on your face you're not very happy about this, but you're never really happy about anything. So, I won't take it personally.
Spinelli: She had a mild contretemps with the protective --
Maxie: I'm not going to be here that long, anyway. Besides, you have a really good guest room that's not being used, so it's not like I'm inconveniencing anyone.
Spinelli: I was trying to offer gentlemanly assistance in her time of --
Maxie: Have you ever slept on that mattress? It's very comfortable. I need to look at the tag so maybe I could buy the same brand.
Spinelli: If I could get the proverbial word in edgewise, here.
Maxie: Sure, but is there fruit or yogurt I could have for breakfast?
Spinelli: Yeah, I shall scour the kitchen.
Jason: Maxie can't stay with us. You need to leave today.
Nikolas: Okay, all right. I think I can do this. I mean, everyone was a beginner at one time or another, right?
Nadine: You should have seen me when I first started.
Nikolas: Yeah, what were you like six?
Nadine: Five.
Nikolas: Exactly. That doesn't count. See, kids they just forge ahead without thinking. So, that doesn't count.
Nadine: Well, you could wait back in the house if you want.
Nikolas: No, no, no. Not a chance. I mean, the Cassadines, we're descended from Cossack warriors. We've defended provinces, stood up against enemy hordes. I'm not going to back out from this one. No way.
Nadine: Okay.
Nikolas: Just, I have one really quick question before we get started. How do you milk the cow?
Jax: Wonderful, wonderful. Thank you very much.
Johnny: My sister already moved out.
Jax: Yes, I heard she married Sonny. You know, I don't know your sister, but I doubt she'll enjoy the experience. If you can be out within a week, that would be great.
Johnny: I'll be out today. You can take possession this afternoon.
Jax: Wonderful.
Lulu: He just said that you could be here for the week.
Johnny: Why drag it out?
Lulu: Try you don't have anywhere else to go unless you're planning on moving back in with your father.
Johnny: That's not going to happen. I'll find someplace.
Jax: I'll have my office cut you a check for the deposit.
Lulu: Jax, look, I get why you're doing this. You're hurting over Carly and you figure that changing your life is going to help you move on, but I just don't think it works that way.
Jax: Well, I guess I'll find out.
Lulu: Carly loves you. You love Carly. Why can't you guys just find a middle ground and get back together?
Jax: Lulu, I appreciate what you're doing here, but Carly and I have been over this more than once. Believe me.
Lulu: Right.
Jax: I'm doing this because I have to do it. I'll have the check sent by messenger.
Lulu: It's so unfair that Jax can just waltz right in here and try and kick you out.
Johnny: I was going to have to move out eventually.
Lulu: Eventually is not now.
Johnny: Lulu, I can't afford to pay rent here.
Lulu: What are you going to do?
Johnny: I don't know. Got any ideas?
Maxie: It's not like I haven't stayed here before. You know I'm a pleasant house guest.
Spinelli: Stone Cold did not intend to be harsh.
Jason: I don't want what happened to Jake to happen to you.
Maxie: Oh, my gosh. That's probably why you're being like this, because of what you just went through with Jake. I'm sorry.
Spinelli: Yeah, but Stone Cold is being burdened with undeserved guilt. You saved little Jake.
Maxie: Yeah, that's the good news. He's okay. The danger is over.
Jason: No, it isn't.
Maxie: You don't have a problem with Spinelli staying here.
Spinelli: Actually, Stone Cold has frequently expressed concern, but I choose to remain so I can assist in providing safety for all.
Maxie: I feel safe with you, Spinelli. I feel safe with you, too. Even though you're not the warmest person --
Jason: You don't think I listen to you when you babble on about fashion, all the stuff you want to do? You're not going to be able to do any of it if you catch a bullet.
Maxie: You sound like Mac.
Jason: Mac is right. I wouldn't want my child anywhere near someone like me.
Patrick: Good morning, everyone.
Epiphany: Well, you're looking suspiciously well-rested.
Matt: You stuck Robin with baby duty last night, didn't you?
Patrick: Actually, we split it 50/50, and I got six hours last night, which is a record since Emma's been born.
Epiphany: Well, don't get smug until she's sleeping eight hours straight.
Patrick: Well, right now I'm thankful for the little things.
Epiphany: Robin and Emma came in looking for you last night.
Matt: Yeah, yeah. Nice move, Dad. Let your fiancée and child run around looking for you. Where were you, by the way? You were at Jake's, drinking.
Patrick: Funny. I was taking care of an outpatient, if you must know.
Matt: Oh, really? Yeah, I must, who?
Patrick: Have you ever heard of doctor-patient confidentiality, hunter?
Epiphany: Can't you two speak to each other on a level above 10-year-olds?
Patrick: Hey, it's not my fault.
Matt: Yeah, it's definitely not mine.
Epiphany: Yeah, well, back to Robin. How's she doing?
Patrick: Better, better. I think going out last night was good for them both. It helped them bond, you know? She's feeling confident. She's planning more outings. She's really started to turn a corner.
Epiphany: Good.
Alexis: I just interviewed the victims, so I'll be back in the office in about 30 minutes.
Sam: Hi. I called your office. They said you'd be here. So...
Alexis: It might be a little less awkward if you had left a message.
Sam: I know. I know, but I really thought that we needed to do this face to face.
Alexis: Are you all right?
Sam: Yeah, I'm okay.
Alexis: I heard about Jake Spencer's rescue.
Sam: Yeah, I'm just -- gosh, so much happened. I'm just grateful that he's good and safe.
Alexis: But you're not here about the rescue, are you?
Sam: No, I'm not. I'm not. I know. It's just been a really long time since we've talked, and I thought maybe there was a lot of things that we need to discuss and I'm sure you're looking for an explanation for what happened with Jerry.
Alexis: That'd be kind of good.
Sam: So, Jerry's plan was to blow up the freighter with me onboard, to cover his disappearance. Thankfully, Jason showed up in time and freed me.
Alexis: Where was Jerry the last time that you saw him?
Sam: He was tangled in some sort of fishing line. Jason and I, we jumped overboard right as the ship exploded.
Alexis: Is there any chance that he could have survived?
Sam: I just -- no. I mean, I highly doubt it. Literally we jumped off and the whole entire thing exploded.
Alexis: I am so grateful that you are all right.
Sam: Thank you. Jerry did mention you a couple of times. And for what it's worth, I really do think that he cares about you --
Alexis: There's not need for you to say any of that --
Sam: I'm just -- I'm trying. I know, but I just kind of have the feeling that's why he left. I don't think he wanted to get too involved.
Alexis: That's a lovely interpretation, but the truth is he was working me. I was working him. And there's not amount of rationalization that will make me feel any less horrible about any of this. Now, the charges against you about the drugs being in your apartment are, of course, being dropped.
Sam: Wow. Really? Thank you.
Alexis: I was never going to let him do it anyway. I have to get back to the office.
Sam: Wait. Hold up, Mom. I'm just -- I'm so -- I'm really sorry for all the pain, everything. I --
Alexis: I could have handled this a lot better myself. It really looks so much clearer in hindsight, doesn't it?
Patrick: You know, I think caring for Emma has been easier for me because my expectations were so much lower than Robin's.
Matt: Well, you anticipated that you'd suck as a father. So, any improvement is seen as a pleasant surprise.
Patrick: Wow, Epiphany, I think I was just insulted.
Matt: It doesn't mean I'm not right.
Patrick: Okay, so, for instance, when Robin and I took our first baby class, I was there fidgeting while Robin was taking notes, and for Emma's first bath she had the notes propped up on the towel rack and she followed them line by line. Where I got in there and just kind of winged it. You know, she's trying for perfection.
Epiphany: There's no such thing. That baby is brand new to the world. She doesn't know the difference between the right way and the wrong way any more than you do.
Patrick: And I think Robin's finally getting that. And like I said, today she's in a great mood. She's happy. She's confident.
Epiphany: That girl needs to get out more. Take that baby on some walks.
Patrick: Great minds think alike, and as we speak, Robin and Emma are taking a little stroll in the park.
Robin: It's okay, sweetie. Come on. The second you stop crying, we can have our day at the park. You'll have so much fun. I promise.
Robin: Come on. You're all right. You're all right. We were getting along so well last night. I don't understand this. Maybe you want to lay down. Will you stop crying?
[Knock at door]
Robin: Oh, saved by the bell. Maybe it's someone who will make you stop crying. Okay.
Maxie: Well, Emma's obviously having the same kind of day I am.
Robin: Well, at least you're not screaming at the top of your lungs.
Maxie: If one more thing goes wrong I will. Look, Emma, I sympathize, but I promise you my problems are worse than yours. So, if you could just take it down a notch.
[Emma stops crying]
Maxie: Oh, well, thanks for understanding. Maybe she could take a nap while I talk to you.
Robin: I don't believe it. I've been trying to quiet her down ever since Patrick left.
Maxie: Well, it's probably just random luck.
Robin: No, no. It's not. Everyone has a gift with my child except me. So, is it possible that my own baby doesn't like me?
