Ian: Well, I'm pleased to say you're coming around much better, although I would advise against any potato sack races or -
Sam: Hmm.
Ian: Confrontations with ex-boyfriends or stalkers.
Sam: You weren't afraid of Jason?
Ian: Should I be?
Sam: Oh -- I don't know. I guess you don't know him, do you? And why would you know him? He -- he works for Sonny Corinthos, the local crime boss.
Ian: And you used to go out with him?
Sam: Yeah.
Ian: If you're not afraid of him, why should I be?
Sam: I don't know -- that's a very odd trail of logic.
Ian: Well, sometimes in my line of work, you have to follow very odd trails of logic.
[Sam chuckles]
Ian: How's the pain?
Sam: Oh, I can take it.
Ian: Good. Because if I dope you up any more, you're going to be getting all randy on me -
Sam: Oh.
Ian: And do yourself some more damage. The surgery has left you with a nasty scar above and below what a beautiful woman like you wears -- well, what passes for a swimsuit. Oh, I'm -- I'm sorry. That probably sounded totally inappropriate.
Sam: Yeah, a little.
Ian: Um -- let me explain. Before I became an oncologist, my specialty was reconstructive surgery. I only mention the issue of the -- the scar because I can help take care of it later, if you want. And as far as the issue of the swimsuit -- well, that was a gross assumption on my part, because you're a beautiful woman.
Sam: Oh. Thank you, I guess.
Lucky: Am I interrupting something?
Diane: Found her!
Alexis: Oh.
Diane: She was behind the couch doing the backstroke. There you go, sweetie.
Kristina: Thank you.
[Diane giggles]
Diane: What's the matter?
Alexis: I'm not sure.
Leo: So your tests confirm what Cassius thought when he sent for me. You suffered a heart attack. Your E.K.G. shows acute S.T. elevations.
Epiphany: It's exhaustion.
Leo: Epiphany, I want to do a P.C.I. with a drug-eluting stent. And you know we have to do this as soon as possible, because in this situation, time is muscle.
Epiphany: Right now, all I know is that I'm about to suffocate with all you people standing around. Don't you have patients to take care of?
Leo: Right now, like it or not, you're one of them. And you know it.
Epiphany: Like it or not, as soon as I catch my breath, I'm getting out of this bed and I'm going back to work.
Cassius: Uh -- excuse me. Um -- can I have a moment alone with nurse Johnson, please?
Epiphany: What do you think you're going to say that he can't?
Cassius: You're just going to have to find out, won't you?
Leo: All right, Cassius, every second counts, ok?
Cassius: And here, I thought you had some more sense in that head of yours.
Luke: Well, I've seen quite a cross section in this town. Mobsters, psychos, killer nurses, blackmailers, con artists, garden-variety freaks and fetishists. Even a couple of upstanding citizens -- which I'm proud to say, I am not.
Claudia: An honest man in a bar? Imagine that.
Luke: That was self-promotion. Actually, I have a severe allergy to honesty.
Claudia: I'm sorry -- what exactly are you selling?
Luke: What are you buying?
Claudia: Information.
Luke: I'm the town oracle. Cash in advance, no credit, no samples.
Coleman: You know, I -- I know things, too.
[Luke and Claudia chuckle]
Luke: Whoops. Ooh, you better pick those up. Somebody might slip and crack a shell.
[Claudia chuckles]
Coleman: Very childish.
Luke: Wow. So, what's your poison?
Claudia: Sonny Corinthos.
Luke: Pretty lethal stuff.
Claudia: I can take it.
Luke: I'll bet you can. Are your interests business or pleasure?
Claudia: Maybe both. What's his weakness?
Luke: Huh. I'd say you'd pretty well got that wrapped up in a tight little package, with the red boots and all. Ok, Sonny Corinthos -- well, you want to go after Sonny? Go after him. He knows how to play the game. But don't go after his family. That would be a mistake. You do that and you're done. A house will fall out of nowhere on top of you. And your little red shoes, too.
Michael: Morgan, you better not be fooling around in my room! You'll be sorry! Give it! It's not a toy! Hey, I'll get mom and Jax to sell you on the internet.
Sonny: What's going on in here?
Michael: Hey, dad. Uh -- mom's in the shower.
Sonny: Yeah, Mercedes told me. Can I sit down?
Michael: Uh -- sure.
Sonny: So, what, you and Morgan are having a little bit of a disagreement? What's going on?
Michael: Um, well, he's always trying to take my boxes so he can put his dumb toys in.
Sonny: Well, it wasn't that long ago that you were playing with the same stuff.
Michael: Yeah, but I'm not a kid anymore, and Morgan's a baby.
Sonny: You're a man, right?
Michael: Yeah.
Sonny: Who likes having guns.
Michael: You know about the bullets, don't you?
Sonny: Yeah, but I didn't know you had anything to put them in. Don't turn your head. Do you have something to put the bullets in, Michael?
Michael: No.
Sonny: Then why the bullets?
Michael: I got to start somewhere.
Sonny: Ok, this is going to end right here. I'm not going to even bother your mother with this, but you -- you need to understand what I'm saying and listen to me. I'm going to tell you again -- do not go anywhere near guns. I don't care if you're trying to protect your mother from the bad guys, or what. If I hear or see you going anywhere near a gun, you better run, and keep running. You got that?
Michael: Yeah, I got it.
Singer: It ain't cool the n word b and n word the b word nor the things they serve it ain't cool
Claudia: So Corinthos is a family man?
Luke: In more ways than one, but think you know that. You wouldn't be asking these questions otherwise.
Claudia: I'm looking for information I don't already know.
Luke: Right. You want a piece of his business or a piece of him?
Claudia: I'm the one with the cash. I ask the questions -
Luke: Ok, well, a strange coincidence here -- I just came from Corinthos, and -- see, I went there to pull in a marker and it didn't really work out for me, but I do have some information that's valuable.
Claudia: What information is that?
Luke: The further away from Corinthos you stay, the longer you will live.
Claudia: Have a long and dull life.
Luke: Now you sound like my doctor.
Claudia: Ladies' room?
Coleman: Yeah, we got one. We got one. It's -- uh -- it's down the hall in the back on the left. She looks pissed -- hot, but pissed.
Luke: Yeah, I get the feeling that's a permanent condition.
Coleman: So you want a cocktail?
Luke: More than life itself, but I'm here for a job.
Coleman: Come on, man. You'd drink the profits and steal my tips. It ain't happening, duke.
Luke: "Duke." It's Luke! Oh, hell. No broad, no booze, no bread. Oh well. Later.
Kate: Oh, I'm aware of all of Sonny's pitfalls and blind spots and faults and flaws.
Jax: Is this Kate Howard talking or the -- the other girl that knew him a long, long time ago?
Kate: I don't know, I guess both. The problem is, is it's hard to integrate the two, but you know what? That's -- it's what I'm going to have to do if I'm going to fight for Sonny. And the one thing that Kate and Connie have in common is that they go after what they want and they don't take any prisoners.
Jax: Why would you beat around the bush? Why don't you just be more direct? I mean, do you really think starting a magazine and being in his line of sight is going to wear him down? I'm sorry. Ok, you know what? We're -- we're not here to talk about Sonny, we're here to talk about the magazine, which brings me to the -- the next thing -- a property. I've had my eye on this property for a while -- it's down on water street, ok? It's an old warehouse that can be converted into offices, and I think that would be quite cost-effective.
[Kate sighs]
Kate: I'm being a fool.
Jax: What?
Kate: I'm going about this all the wrong way.
Jax: No, no, no -- no, Kate -
Kate: No, no, Jax -- Jax?
[Kate taps table]
Kate: It's going to stop right now, so listen. Thank you, I will be in touch about the property. But right now, I have something more important to do.
Jax: Sure.
Alexis: I'm not really clear on what the purpose of this is.
Diane: Well, then you need another drink. Now, sit down, we've only got 10 seconds. Here.
Alexis: No, I'm -- you're not taking a picture of me.
Diane: Yes, I am, yes, I am. This is for some old friends.
Alexis: What friends?
Diane: Cheese. Cheese.
[Diane laughs]
Diane: Look what I got this morning.
Alexis: It's big Dave.
Diane: And gunner -- the origins of our redneck couture.
Alexis: Which one are you dating?
Diane: I'm not dating either of them. I simply left my card in the bar -- because you never know where your next controversial case is going to come from. I mean, I can't keep baby-sitting Sonny all the time. They sent a photograph, they wanted a photograph in return. So I thought we'd wear the jackets, have a little fun -- you know, what the hell.
Alexis: There's someone out there.
Diane: Where?
Alexis: There, near the lake.
Diane: You got a back door to this place?
Alexis: It's locked.
Diane: Well, fine, you can lock it again behind me.
Alexis: What are you going to do?
Diane: These jackets aren't the only souvenir that we took out of the bar that night. You make sure the girls stay in their room.
Alexis: Are you insane? Do you even have a license for that?
Diane: Nitpick about that if I don't have to use it.
Elizabeth: Hi.
Jason: Hi. I can't really stay long. I got to meet Spinelli, I got some things to check out that might actually prove that you didn't hit Sam after all.
Elizabeth: I almost told Lucky.
Jason: What?
Elizabeth: I almost told Lucky that I think I'm the one who hit Sam. But then I got to thinking if I say one thing, I'm going to have to say another -- then where was I going that night and why, or you and me and our place and -
Jason: Nobody has to say anything at all yet, ok? Look, I -- I just want you to be careful, there's some evidence that the killer might still be out there. I can't -- I can't say anything else right now, but just promise me that you'll be careful.
Elizabeth: I promise.
Ian: I'm sorry I wasn't here the other night when you wanted to question me. But for what it's worth, I don't believe that anyone -- let alone Ms. McCall -- could've faked the kind of terror that I saw on her face when I walked in here the other night. You need anything, just have me paged.
Sam: Thank you.
Sam: So?
Lucky: I still need evidence.
Sam: Well, I hope you get it. And I do hope you can solve this case, because it is quite clear to me that you can't stand being around me.
Lucky: That's not true.
Cassius: You're a nurse. You know what gender you are, what race you are. You know what kind of stress you've been under lately. You know you're at a higher risk by having a heart attack -
Epiphany: And I still did my job.
Cassius: Part of your job is staying alive.
Epiphany: What business is it of yours, Cassius?
Leo: How we doing?
Epiphany: We're lousy, but I've decided to go through with it.
Leo: Ok.
Patrick: You know the gallery is going to be full of people that love you during this procedure?
Epiphany: Hmm -- they just want to see me on the other side of the coin for once.
Robin: No, you're wrong about that. They're going to be in that gallery making sure that Leo does right by you.
Epiphany: Don't go give me any crap about my being the heart and soul of this hospital. I'm already sick, you want to make it worse?
Leo: "Heart and soul" my foot, you're the boss. This place will go to hell if we don't get you moving again.
Epiphany: You're in charge at the desk until I get back on my feet.
Patrick: Which is going to be at least a week.
Epiphany: Not if I have anything to say about it.
Leo: Let's get you prepped and ready to go. You have any questions before we start?
Epiphany: No, I know what you're supposed to be doing. You just make sure that you do. Now, everybody else, get back to work. I know I'm not the only patient in this hospital! Uh -- Stanford's ashes. I had them in my hands when -
Cassius: Don't worry, they're safe.
Elizabeth: You're going to be ok.
Epiphany: You better believe I will, because somebody still has a whole lot of explaining to do.
Kristina: Mommy?
Alexis: Honey -- honey, get back in the room right now. Go -- go with Molly.
[Thud]
Diane: You make one move, and you'll be holding your guts with both hands!
Alexis: Good god, what are you doing? You just cold cocked the mayor!
[Mayor Floyd groans]
Diane: The mayor?
Alexis: Garrett -
Diane: Oh, I'm so sorry.
Alexis: Are you ok?
Diane: I'm very sorry, I didn't realize that it was you.
Diane: He didn't look like the mayor.
Alexis: Well, it looks just like him. All right, are -- just -- you know, can I get you anything?
Mayor Floyd: Uh -- uh -
Alexis: Just go in and sit down.
Mayor Floyd: When I got your message, I thought I'd come out here by myself. Uh -- what goes on here at the lake?
Diane: Why don't you just -- just sit down, let's get you a drink -- or at least some ice for your head.
Alexis: Take two. Here you go. Honey? Everything's fine, it's the mayor. You remember the mayor, don't you?
Mayor Floyd: Hi, sweetheart.
Diane: All right, now, let me take a look at what I did to you. Well, I didn't open you up.
[Kristina screams]
[Door opens]
Sonny: Good, you're here.
Kate: I think we should talk.
[Music plays]
Jason: Spinelli -- seen him yet?
Coleman: No, I haven't seen him, man.
Singer: Did you think you'd get away? Come back here, boy did you think you can have it all one? Uh-uh
Claudia: Are you interested in taking me on?
Singer: I'll make it louder I'll make it harder until you can't take it, oh, but I might take you down
>> On the next "General Hospital" -
Nikolas: I think I may have done something awful. Alexis: Tell mommy what you saw. Claudia: So what else are we playing for? Sonny: What do you want? Kate: You, Sonny. You still love me.

Tracy: I'll have a garden salad.
Luke: House salad's cheaper. Of course, it comes with wilted lettuce and squishy tomatoes but you can drown the flavor in extra dressing. Beggars can't be choosers.
Tracy: What are you doing here?
Luke: My job. I had to find some way to provide for my lovely wife.
Sonny: You keep thinking we still -- we still have things to say to each other.
Kate: And you think that you can solve all of our problems by avoiding me in public. Walking out of that restaurant the other night -- it's right out of high school, Sonny.
Sonny: Well, I wouldn't know because I never finished high school. I -- I'm not interested in solving anything that has to do between us.
Kate: Yes, you are. You are just scared, Sonny.
[Sonny sighs]
Kate: To think, all these years later and Sonny Corinthos is afraid of little Connie Falconeri.
Jason: All right, you break.
Claudia: No, thanks. I'll take the advantage my own way.
Jason: Suit yourself.
Claudia: Nice. So what else are we playing for?
Nadine: Is it true?
Elizabeth: Is what true?
Nadine: Epiphany -- I just heard a horrible rumor she had a heart attack?
Elizabeth: Yeah, Leo just took her down to the cath lab and she left me in charge of all of this, which means I need to ask you -- can you stay in pediatrics for an extra three weeks?
Nadine: Are you kidding? I love kids. I wanted a family so badly.
Elizabeth: Really?
Ian: Not bad for the first time back on your feet but be careful, don't overdo it.
Sam: You know, I don't think that's going to be a problem.
[Ian laughs]
[Pager beeps]
Ian: Well, rest here for just a second while I take a quick consultation and then I'll take you back to your room. Nurse, would you keep an eye on our intrepid self-defender here for a bit? Is there a problem?
Alexis: Kristina, what is it? Come on, baby, talk to me and tell mommy what you saw.
Spinelli: I -- I don't understand your hesitation. It's Valentine's Day and that is a Valentine's Day gift, ergo --
Maxie: This is a Valentine's Day gift from Coop.
Spinelli: Hmm.
Maxie: And now he's dead and we're on the trail of his killer.
Spinelli: I know the circumstantial evidence keeps pointing to the crabby commando.
Maxie: I'm really sorry but I have to stay strong and focused and if I open that gift, I'm going to start crying for Coop and Georgie and I might never stop.
Spinelli: All right, well, then by all means stay strong. But I, one lesson away from completing my course to become Jackal, P.I., must away. Stone Cold is expecting my cyberistic aid on some important but somewhat mysterious mission.
Tracy: You are not my husband.
Luke: I have paperwork that says otherwise.
Tracy: That's only because I can't afford an attorney since Monica froze my assets.
Luke: Well, you did throw that malpractice thing her way.
Tracy: Oh, well, excuse me. I guess I got caught caring about whether or not you lived or died -- even when you didn't care.
Luke: I'm running a special today. It's sort of my way of honoring that spiteful little cherub who originated all this bow-and-arrow nonsense. I invented it myself -- I call it "burgers to love by."
Tracy: Ew! No, thanks.
Luke: Come on, you must be hungry. Camped out in the G.H. boardroom on the sofa for, like, a week? There have to be only so many meal trays that you can swipe from patients when nobody's looking. And I'm sure you're dying for a drink. Booze is an expensive luxury when you're on the skids. Personally, I have friends under the overpass who top me off whenever I go by, but you require something classier.
Tracy: I do require something much classier than you.
Luke: Is that any way to talk to your chief provider?
Tracy: Luke, the only thing you've ever provided me with is anxiety and regret.
Luke: Well, that was then, this is now. How would you like a roof over your head? There's a vacancy upstairs -- the other half of my bed is vacant.
Tracy: You're living here now?
Luke: Sure, this is an old family business and I'm old family. According to that Elvis impersonator who married us, you're family, too. I miss you, Tracy.
Tracy: Well, I don't.
Luke: Hey, don't do that. Don't lie to your beloved on this holy day of chocolate and roses or St. Valentine will smite you where you sit.
Tracy: What I was going to say is that I don't miss you, I don't want you, and you know exactly what you can do with your burgers and buns. Oh!
Luke: Oh --
Tracy: Oh --
Luke: Tracy! What happened? Are you ok?
Alexis: Come on, come on. I want you to -- hey, hey -- I want you to try to tell mommy what you saw. Was -- was it an animal or was it a person?
Diane: I'll go check outside.
Mayor Floyd: No, you stay. I'll go, I'll go. Wait -- whoa, whoa --
Diane: Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's right, Rambo.
Alexis: Go sit back down there.
Diane: You come sit right down here and you just try to look threatening -- I'll go.
Alexis: No, nobody's going anywhere. Will you do me a favor -- call the police. Come here, sweetie. Oh, ok. Can you tell mommy what's going on? You're safe, we're all safe here, ok? So do you think you can tell mommy what you saw? Oh, god. Oh, not again.
Kate: Every time that we had a fight, you would go run off and sit under the boardwalk or you would find some alley and you would brood and I would go out of my way to find you, to run into you, and you would avoid me.
Sonny: Well, smart people avoid me these days.
Kate: Are you afraid of confrontation?
Sonny: Nope.
Kate: Why were you always afraid? You afraid it was going to make you look weak? Do you know, Sonny, that most of the time all I ever wanted to do was say that I was sorry because maybe I was wrong. Or maybe it was the wrong timing -- like the times that I pushed you to go back to school or to talk to Father James because could only speculate what was going on with you at home or the times I thought you were cheating on me. Oh --
Sonny: What --
Kate: You thought I didn't know about Celeste Tesoro, huh? Hmm -- you playing tongue tag with her in the alley? Oh -- or Donna Garafolo when she cornered you in the pizza parlor with her skirt up to her cannolis? Good, good, Sonny.
Sonny: That's stupid.
Kate: It's good that you're smiling because that's all anybody ever wanted you to do because I knew we were ok. So you kissed Celeste and you checked out Donna and you held them in your arms or -- I don't know -- whatever it was. It was only once because I knew that if it was more than once, that we were really through.
Jason: I'm just meeting somebody here, just killing some time.
Claudia: This "somebody" is not going to mind that you're killing your time with me, right?
Jason: No.
Claudia: Ok, well, every game needs high stakes, even games between strangers -- I'd say especially games between strangers -- so what are we playing for?
Jason: I don't know, just pick something, make it interesting. We're not even going to be able to finish this game.
Claudia: I always finish what I start and I never start anything that I can't finish so I'll tell you what -- I'll make it easy on you.
Jason: Yeah.
Claudia: If I win, you dance with me?
Jason: If you -- what if I win?
Claudia: Then you choose.
Elizabeth: Nurse Johnson put me in charge of the front desk, so I really don't have an extra --
Ian: I wasn't asking you to monitor a leaking nuclear reactor, I was just asking you to take care of a patient.
Elizabeth: I think it would be best if we found another nurse.
Sam: Here, I'll help you out here. What Elizabeth is trying to say is that we have history with the same men and I think she would rather see me crawl back to my room over broken glass than help.
Elizabeth: Sam, you know that's not true.
Sam: Oh, and another thing -- speaking of the truth, it's not one of her strong suits.
Ian: Well, frankly, I don't care. She's a patient, you're a nurse. If she needs your care and attention while I'm a little tied up, well, you're just going to have to help her. Is that clear?
Elizabeth: Yes, doctor.
Ian: Later when Ms. McCall makes a full recovery, you two can have a food fight in the hallway with my blessing. In fact, I'll -- I'll bring the whipped cream.
Nadine: I can help you to the lounge if you want.
Sam: You know what? I'd actually like to stand here for a minute and just rest my hip.
Elizabeth: It's fine, Nadine.
Sam: Thanks. Ok, time for the truth.
Sonny: What do you want here, Kate?
Kate: You, Sonny. Look, I know it's going to take some time, and I've got plenty to keep myself busy with. Between "Couture" and starting up the magazine here in Port Charles, I've moved out of the Metro Court, I've opened up the house. We're going to be neighbors again.
Sonny: I had the wall sealed back up.
Kate: Well, I told Alexis to drop the lawsuit.
Sonny: So now you're open to me after you refused my proposal?
Kate: I'm open to us, Sonny, of where we can go, to the changes that I can make to see that happen.
Sonny: What makes you think I'll wait? What makes you think I've waited at all?
Coleman: Sorry, I was just -- just admiring your form.
Singer: I walk alone at closing time I walk alone with my head down keep on, keep on
Claudia: So, rock, Latin, blues?
Claudia: What kind of music turns you on for our dance?
Spinelli: Headmaster! Uh -- a thousand pardons! Um -- the private investigatory grasshopper was held up greatly by the wounded blond one and her --
Claudia: Any idea what you've just done?
Spinelli: A thousand and one pardons to Stone Cold and vixenella. I had no idea the master was entertaining.
Claudia: What are you?
Spinelli: Jackal -- internet -- cyberspace.
Claudia: Hmm, well, you need to get out of your room more. Hey, what -- what about our bet? Double or nothing?
Jason: Maybe some other time. Did you get the address I wanted? Did you get the address I wanted?
Elizabeth: So what's your version of the truth?
Sam: You wish that I had died out there on that street.
Elizabeth: If you say so.
Sam: You took a lot of delight in telling Lucky all the awful things that I did to you.
Elizabeth: "Delight"? No, no, not delight. I told you -- Lucky overheard us talking about how you watched Jake get kidnapped and you hired those guys in the park.
Sam: Yeah, I'm very aware of everything that I did. You wanted revenge, you destroyed my chances of happiness, Lucky's chances of happiness. Like it or not, that is where we were headed but you couldn't stand that. What, you can't have Jason or Lucky so nobody else can -- is that it?
Elizabeth: Sam, you really shouldn't be standing on your hip like this.
Sam: I came to you that day in the hospital to ask for some sort of a truce, to -- to make some -- some peace, and --
Elizabeth: What was I supposed to do? Lucky knew something was up, he wanted the truth.
Sam: Would it have killed you to lie to him one more time so this could all be over with? No, you wanted to keep it going. Fine, you know what? Fine, have it your way. I would like you to know the ball's in my court.
Elizabeth: Are you threatening me?
Sam: No, I'm just telling you the truth -- and that is what you're all about these days, right?
Nikolas: Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: Hey.
Sam: Hey.
Nikolas: Hi. Uh -- out of bed already? Are you sure that's a good idea?
Sam: Yeah, actually, this is the best I've felt since I woke up in here.
Elizabeth: Do you have an appointment with Patrick?
Nikolas: Yes, yes, I do. I'm just a little early. I actually wanted to talk to you. Um -- I really don't know how to say this, but I think I may have don something awful.
[Baby coos]
Jax: That's going to be us soon -- a new addition to the family.
Carly: I can't wait. I can't wait. This is a weird place to be spending Valentine's Day?
Jax: No.
Carly: And we're not being selfish by just wanting to keep it to ourselves?
Jax: I don't think so. I think that we should tell Michael and Morgan. And I know that my mom would be thrilled if she found out, so maybe we should tell my mom.
Carly: I love you.
Jax: I love you, too. Why don't you go see if Dr. Lee's ready for us.
Carly: I want to stay here just a few more minutes.
Jax: Ok. I'll just -- I'll check and I'll come back and get you.
Carly: Ok.
Jax: Ok.
Robin: No, you're -- you're not --
Carly: You've got to be kidding me.
[Baby cries]
Carly: See? You scared the baby.
Robin: It probably sensed you were going to be a mother.
Carly: So who was stupid enough to give you their sperm?
Patrick: What's going on?
Alexis: I felt something outside and then I went to the window and I saw somebody.
Lucky: It could've been the mayor.
Alexis: You saying that you don't believe me?
Lucky: I'm saying I want to understand where everybody was.
[Mayor Floyd sighs]
Mayor Floyd: Look, I came up the path from the lake because the driveway was covered with ice. It was too dangerous. I'm still healing from my knee injury.
Diane: Yes, our hero -- I mistook him for an intruder on the porch. I managed to get the best of him.
Alexis: Kristina went to the window and started to scream.
Det. Harper: We've got nothing. If there was somebody out there, they stayed on the dry patches, didn't leave any tracks.
Scott: Well, you know, maybe Kristina saw a dog or a cat or something out there.
Alexis: Kristina knows what a dog and a cat look like, she's used to seeing deer and raccoon around here. She saw someone, the same as Sam saw someone at the hospital and the sooner you believe that, the sooner that my children and myself and all the other women in this city will be safe.
Lucky: Have you checked your phone for any messages?
Sam: You need to lose the long face. You know, it only hurts -- all right, so it hurts pretty much all the time but I'm dealing with it. So you don't have to feel guilty because I know you've been going through a lot and I know you wanted to come see me, I'm sure, but it's ok. I understand.
Nikolas: No, no, I -- of course I did. Listen, it's not like I haven't been thinking about you. It's just --
Sam: Look, I told you, it's ok.
Nikolas: No, no, it's not ok. Look, I'm sorry. I'm just -- I'm just frustrated, and like I said earlier, I -- I don't even know how to say it. I think that I may be the one who hit you on that road the other night.
Spinelli: You know, Stone Cold, The Jackal has exhibited nothing less than Sherlockian wisdom and patience while dealing with the wise Georgie's sister and also trying to find the real identity of the text message killer.
Jason: Yeah -- code?
Spinelli: Oh, um, 78963.
[Keypad beeps]
Spinelli: Which lesson 14 of my online P.I. course clearly states is a necessity --
Jason: Does it mention anything about being quiet?
Spinelli: Indeed it does.
Jason: Ok, try that.
Spinelli: Um -- try 36975.
Spinelli: Um -- but if I may be so bold as to speak once more?
Spinelli: Who is the -- um -- nocturnal temptress that was aching for a dance with the master?
Jason: Some-- someone looking for a good time, ok? She actually kind of bugged me so I hope I don't run into her again.
Kate: Well, we don't have any claims on each other, Sonny, except what our hearts are telling us -- and hoping for us. I'm really hoping that we could still give each other some grace -- some wiggle room for fatal flaws and room for improvement. Ok. Um -- there was -- there was just one more thing that I wanted to tell you -- Happy Valentine's Day.
Feb 14, 2008 11:20
Sonny: Oh, man.
Kate: Oh -- you can deny it all you want but it's still there.
Sonny: Yeah, with nowhere to go.
Kate: Sonny, you know, the night I ran away from you, I wandered back to my street -- nothing had changed.
Sonny: Why is that such a bad thing? I mean, your -- your family, they -- they loved you, they were proud of you, right?
Kate: Yeah, they were.
Sonny: And what -- what do they think of you now?
Kate: I don't have any contact with my family, Sonny.
Sonny: Do you know how sad that sounds?
Kate: Yeah, I do, and you know what? I made my choices just like you made yours and I wish that we didn't have to go on being punished for them, but are you still only in love with the girl from way back then?
Sonny: There was a lot to love about her.
Kate: And the woman standing in front of you right now?
Sonny: She doesn't love herself.
Kate: And you don't have moments like that?
Sonny: I keep them in perspective.
Kate: Yeah, and they keep you a prisoner of your own making just like mine do. Sonny, don't you ever just want to be free?
Sonny: It's not that simple, Kate.
Kate: You know what? It is, Sonny because I just want to be free to love you. And the least that you could do is tell me that you still loved me.
Kate: Do you remember what Delores Munchuk used to say how we'd end up? You know, with a linoleum table and a lace tablecloth? Me with too much makeup and my thighs spread out over the chair?
Sonny: Yeah, and -- and me with a 42-inch waist --
Kate: Yeah, with pants unbuttoned and --
Sonny: Powdered sugar on my shirt, right?
[Kate laughs, snorts]
Kate: Oh --
[Sonny and Kate laugh]
Kate: Did I just --
Sonny: That's --
Kate: No, I haven't done that in a very long time. I also remember something else she said about us, how we'd end up.
Sonny: What?
Kate: Happy.
Sonny: Yeah, well --
Kate: I'm going to go now.
Claudia: I need something from you -- and it can't wait.
Carly: Hmm -- should've known your new brave world didn't extend past your ex-boyfriend.
Robin: It's really none of your business.
Carly: What are you thinking? What's wrong with you?
Patrick: Carly, I'm not the father.
Jax: Hey, hi.
Robin: Hey. So, congratulations -- I think.
Jax: I thought we weren't telling anyone.
Carly: I didn't tell her, she figured it out. But now with Robin's big mouth when it comes to kids, I'm sure the whole world's going to know.
Robin: No one's going to know.
Carly: I wish I could believe that.
Robin: Well, I guess you may as well know that I'm pregnant, as well.
Jax: Wow! Congratulations! That's --
Robin: Thank you.
Jax: That's awesome!
Patrick: I'm not the father.
Jax: Oh. So who -- who do we congratulate, then?
Patrick: Robin went to a sperm bank, actually.
Carly: Couldn't find a real one?
Jax: You know --
Patrick: It was very brave and independent of her, I --
Carly: Or calculated and selfish.
Jax: Ok, you know what? I think Dr. Lee's ready for us so we should probably get going.
Jax: It's -- it's wonderful news, really.
Jax: And, um, we would like to keep it, you know, to ourselves a little bit longer so if you could just keep it quiet?
Patrick: Absolutely.
Robin: Of course.
Jax: Ok, thanks.
Robin: I'll have to remind Kelly not to schedule us anywhere near each other. I'd rather not be stressed out while I'm pregnant.
Patrick: If you need anything -- um, I mean, it's a good thing you have a lot of family and friends that love you, care about you and support you, but --
Jason: Ok, we -- we need this green light to go on, Spinelli. Keep looking for a combination that works.
Spinelli: Ok, um, you know, The Jackal did find it interesting to be subjected to the innermost workings of the wounded blond one's thinking process. I mean, it is -- simplistic and illogical but somehow somewhat productive and practical. Um -- 93191?
Spinelli: You know, Logan remains our person of interest given the clues that we've amassed. Um -- 77777.
Jason: You know what? Maybe you should've brought Maxie.
[Spinelli scoffs]
Spinelli: You know, the first thing that she would've done was abandon all understanding of mechanical devices and entry codes and probably just tried the door and walked in.
Spinelli: Shazam.
Mac: I have to warn you. Now, keep in mind there's no solid proof yet, but --
Maxie: The text message killer is still out there and Coop didn't do it? I think I already told you that.
Mac: There may have been someone out at Alexis' house tonight. Kristina saw something.
Maxie: I think Coop was close to figuring it out, too -- that's why he died. He got this for me.
Mac: I'm so sorry.
Maxie: I want to see him cleared.
Mac: I want to see you get past this.
Maxie: I lost Jesse and Coop and my sister and my mom.
Mac: Your mother is still alive.
Maxie: Not to me. I don't even have my own heart.
Mac: Why don't you open that?
Maxie: Huh.
Mac: Coop asked me weeks ago what I thought you might like.
Maxie: "You will always have a heart to fall back on -- mine. I love you. Coop."
Tracy: Give me that!
Luke: Why don't you let me take you over to General Hospital and check you in for a couple of days of clean sheets and pain meds?
Tracy: No -- thank you. Monica will be hiding behind every potted palm waiting to cut my heart out if she's not too drunk. You'd think that car accident would be enough to sober her up for good. I wouldn't be at all surprised if she was the one that hit Sam.
Luke: Really? Hit-and-run -- that's a pretty stiff sentence.
Tracy: Yeah, that's why I'm counting on the police to uncover it.
Luke: Imagine the leverage you'd have if we uncovered it first.
Sonny: I should have my partner here, Jason or at least one of my guards. Since this is business, you might need to be patted down.
Claudia: Well, the night is young.
Sonny: I thought we finished our business for a while after the meeting.
Claudia: See, I thought we were just starting -- especially in light of the fact that it wasn't our first meeting. I'm interested in a trade.
Sonny: I'm listening.
Claudia: All right, you own the dock unions, but you must know I managed to bring a few of the shore patrol and the pilot boat operators to my side. You can't unload product if you can't get it to the shore.
Sonny: Well, the Zaccharas also bought up the packaging plants on water street. It's going to be a little crowded down there when I get my hands on that deserted pier complex.
Claudia: Trevor seems to think he has that under control.
Sonny: I don't see the Zacchara name being pasted up anywhere.
Claudia: Well, it will be. Besides, there's such a thing as coexistence.
Sonny: That's not Trevor talking.
Claudia: Uh-uh. Trevor doesn't run this family.
Sonny: He has. Is that what this is all about? You want to bring home a trophy, you want to rub Trevor's nose in it? And then you got your wonderful brother who's -- I'm sure he --
Claudia: Johnny's a good kid.
Sonny: And then there's Anthony Zacchara -- you got a lot of distractions I could be taking advantage of.
Claudia: You could. Or you could think about what I said. I see I was right before, by the way.
Sonny: About what?
Claudia: About the girl, about you --
[Sonny chuckles]
Claudia: You still being in love with that woman that you were trying to erase in my arms in the hotel room the other night? That was her, right? That was Kate Howard?
Sonny: She stays out of this.
Claudia: Well, that kiss I walked in on says she's already in deep, and so are you. That makes her fair game.
Sonny: I'm going to say this once -- leave her alone.
Singer: My funny Valentine sweet, cunning Valentine you make me smile
Spinelli: My mission with Stone Cold is accomplished.
Maxie: Ok, well, Mac was here and someone was out at Alexis' lake house -- most likely after her.
Spinelli: Did you -- did you mention our suspicion about the crabby commando?
Maxie: No -- Scott Baldwin's on the case and who knows what he would do to cover up his son's guilt? We have to be careful, Spinelli, and get some real evidence against him.
Spinelli: And soon. Jackal, P.I., is noticing a disturbing pattern in the killer's behavior.
Nadine: Here you go.
Elizabeth: Thank you.
Nadine: Mm-hmm.
Elizabeth: What is that?
Nadine: That is hello, ducky. "Hello, ducky."
[Nadine giggles]
Nadine: It's a great attention grabber for the kids, especially when they're upset, and it keeps my hands free. I also have a hello, stinky -- it's a pig.
Elizabeth: Whatever works, right?
Nadine: That looks intense.
Elizabeth: Nadine, I have to apologize for what happened earlier in front of Dr. Devlin.
Nadine: Oh, don't worry about it -- you can't get along with everybody. As aunt Rayleen used to say, "every garden has its weed."
Nikolas: I -- I don't know that it was me, I don't know that I was on that road. I just know that I could've been and I could've hit you and if I did -- I don't know.
Sam: Ok, look, I -- um -- I am angry that this happened. But if it were you, I -- I could never hold you responsible for this.
Nikolas: Well, if -- if I did, I'll -- I'll take care of everything -- your hospital bills, everything.
Sam: Oh, no -- no, I don't need that. What I need is for you to take care of yourself. So, when are you going to have the operation?
Elizabeth: Hey. Hey, look, look, look. Nikolas is telling Sam that he thinks he's the one who hit her. This could be the end of all of this.
Jason: The only problem with that is Nikolas is innocent.
Jax: You know, Dr. Lee gives you this wonderful clean bill of health and you bring me to Jake's now for what again?
Carly: Buffalo wings -- I'm craving buffalo wings, yes.
Jax: You're just determined to pass down your love for junk food to our child, aren't you?
Carly: Did you hear what you said? You said "our child." Doesn't that sound perfect?
Jax: Yeah -- "our child."
Carly: Yeah.
Jax: All right.
Carly: This place is deserted.
Jax: I'd hope so.
Singer: We tend to find together
Coleman: Bon appetit.
Jax: I took the liberty of calling ahead and making a few arrangements. Happy Valentine's Day.
Carly: Oh, you're wonderful, you know that? Ok, I'm hungry! Thank you.
Coleman: You're welcome.
Patrick: Good news on epiphany -- looks like the angioplasty was a success.
Robin: What a relief.
Patrick: Yeah.
Robin: What a day, huh?
Patrick: Well, I hope --
[Robin laughs]
Patrick: This can make it a little bit better.
Robin: What's this?
Patrick: Valentine's Day. Friends and exes can still give gifts, can't they?
Robin: I suppose they can.
Patrick: While everyone knows what a wonderful mother you're going to be, I've always known what a wonderful woman you already are.
Luke: There has to be a way to prove that Monica's car wasn't stolen. We punch holes in her story, then we can get --
Tracy: No. Uh-uh-uh, nothing. It's too easy.
Luke: What is?
Tracy: To fall back into our old routine. I hate you.
Luke: That's only because you're crazy about me.
Tracy: I have to get you out of my system once and for all.
Singer: Couldn't fall in love this way save me climb on top of this building
Luke: It's pretty chilly out there, Tracy. It's going to be hard to walk away with that bum ankle.
Tracy: Let's just see if St. Valentine has decided to heal me so I can get away from you after all, ok? Let's just see.
Singers: Hold on
Tracy: There.
Singers: I tried but no one was able to fake your touch
Spinelli: It's only logical. Ok, the extra attempts made on the fair Samantha and her goddess mother suggest that it's not only what the victims have in common with each other, it's what the killer has in common with the victims.
Diane: So if she did see the text message killer, what is it about him specifically that frightened her so much?
Alexis: Oh, it's ok. It's ok, it's ok, ok?
Jason: Ok, I got into the police impound warehouse -- that's where they took the parts of Nikolas' car after they found it at the chop shop.
Elizabeth: And?
Jason: Well, and according to the police report, Sam was hit on the passenger side of the car. The right front bumper of Nikolas' car was undamaged.
Elizabeth: But mine is damaged.
Claudia: Looks like I hit a nerve.
Sonny: No, what you hit is a wall. I already warned your brother -- you come near anybody that I care about, there will be bloodshed.
Claudia: When I said "fair game," I meant woman-to-man. I like competition.
Sonny: You wasted your time here tonight.
Claudia: Really? On the contrary, because I feel like I'm leaving with some valuable insight.
Sonny: No trade. You got nothing I want.
Claudia: Then I'll just have to take something you do.
>> On the next "General Hospital" --
Claudia: We have some planning to do. Hi. Elizabeth: Nikolas -- oh -- Spinelli: You have to be careful. Lulu: Why? [Gunshot]
Feb 16, 2008 12:10
Jax: There you are. Penny for your thoughts?
Carly: I was thinking that you're right. We have to tell the boys about the baby.
Jax: We can tell them tonight.
Carly: Ok. You know, it seems like just yesterday that Michael was a baby. He's been so dark lately. Hopefully this news will brighten him up.
Michael: Get out of my room!
Spinelli: We should tell her.
Maxie: We can't.
Spinelli: But if Logan turns out to be the text message killer, she could be in danger.
Maxie: We don't have enough proof, Spinelli, and if she tips off Logan, he's going to run.
Logan: Hey, Lulu.
Lulu: Where have you been?
Alexis: I'm taking Kristina to see Dr. Winters at around 5:00. Ok, I'm really worried, I am. And I'm glad that you came by, because you'll take my mind off of it, so --
Kate: Yes.
Alexis: Tell me, when are you leaving for Manhattan?
Kate: Actually, I'm not going back. Yeah, I've given it a lot of thought, and barring any new problems, I think I might have a shot with Sonny.
Claudia: Hey, little brother. John?
Johnny: I'm sorry. This may be a little difficult for you to understand, but I can't just pick up and act like nothing happened, that my big sister hasn't been gone all these years.
Claudia: It's ok. I know.
Johnny: What kept you from coming back?
Claudia: The same thing that kept you locked in.
Sonny: I don't know when it all went to hell, but it's got to change, and it's got to change fast. The Zaccharas bought up property, they bought up politicians right under our noses. We should've seen it coming -- are you listening?
Sonny: Ok, what has you so damn distracted?
Nikolas: Hi.
Elizabeth: Hey. How you feeling?
Nikolas: Well, today's Spencer's birthday, so I'm trying to focus on the good. The bad thing is the newspapers say that the killer is still out there -- could be anyone.
Elizabeth: Well, you still don't think that you did something to her?
Nikolas: I don't -- I don't want to. But then again, I -- I don't - I don't know what I know anymore.
Elizabeth: Well, I can tell you one positive thing -- I'm pretty sure it wasn't you who hit Sam on the road the other night.
Nikolas: How can you say that?
Jax: First of all, you don't use that tone of voice with your mother.
Michael: You're not my father!
Carly: What is wrong with you? What is so sacred in this room, Michael, what's going on?
Jax: In your mother's house.
Carly: No, "in your parents' house," and that includes Jax. What's going on?
Michael: It's my room, my stuff. I can put away my own clothes, and I can't barge into your room without knocking.
Jax: Well, that's a little different. Ok, now, we do -- do all need to respect each other's boundaries within reason.
Carly: And age limits, Michael.
Jax: Why don't we let Michael put his stuff away? We can sit down and talk about it when you get home from practice tonight. And we're sorry for barging in your room. I think you should apologize to your mother.
Michael: I'm sorry.
[Hip-hop plays]
Sonny: We still got a killer out there. Michael's trying to steal guns and buy bullets and -- you know, to protect his mother. We're no closer to owning Alcazar's waterfront properties, and I -- basically, the Zaccharas are just moving into my living room.
Jason: Wait, wait, wait -- what did you say about the bullets?
Sonny: The bullets? Oh, Mike saw Michael on the docks with bullets. He had him toss them out, but I sat Michael down. I said, "look, you go anywhere near a gun, there's going to be hell to pay."
Jason: He wants to be like us.
Sonny: I don't want that. I don't want him to be like me. Things are out of control. I mean, you're not really helping right now. I mean, you -- you're not with Sam, you're not with Elizabeth, you're not hanging out with your child.
Jason: What, it's not ok for me to have a life, too? No?
Sonny: No, business first, life second -- that's the way it's always been with us, and that's the way it has to continue.
Jason: Ok, what -- what's the priority?
Sonny: The priority is I need you to get your computer friend to research Anthony Zacchara's daughter.
Jason: I think Max said he had some kind of crush on her.
Sonny: He would.
Jason: What do you think?
Sonny: I don't care, she's the enemy. We got things to fix, let's fix it.
Jason: Oh, ok. Where -- where are you going?
Sonny: I just got to stop something before it gets out of hand.
Claudia: You don't remember this house before Trevor came? You don't remember your family or mine?
Johnny: Was it that different?
Claudia: Yeah. Me and my mom before she left, and then your mom, and then you.
Johnny: How about our father?
Claudia: Ruthless, manipulative. He had a way of drawing you in right before he cut you down.
Johnny: So what's different?
Claudia: He was in control of it.
Johnny: So it ate him alive?
Claudia: Something did -- not that he didn't deserve it for at he did to us, he did. It's just that every once in a while, there was a glimpse of a father. That's what changed when Trevor Lansing arrived. He had a way of drawing you in, too, and making you think that everything was in your best interest when, really, it was in his.
Johnny: So you're here for revenge?
Claudia: I'm here, Johnny, for a lot of things.
Johnny: Including the family empire.
Claudia: Including you.
Johnny: I don't need you.
Claudia: Well, you did once. You -- and I loved you so much.
Johnny: Aren't you the one that told me love kills?
Claudia: Yeah?
Johnny: And you're not lonely?
Claudia: Restless, I'm restless.
Johnny: You're empty.
Claudia: Ok, you're going to have to find out the hard way. And if you're lucky, maybe love will only maim you.
Johnny: Maybe I want it anyway. Maybe I also want our father's empire.
Elizabeth: I heard bits and pieces of what you were saying to Sam here last night, and I think it's really nice of you to offer to pay for her medical bills, but -
Nikolas: Yeah, I -- I could've hit her, Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: Yeah, but why would you take on the blame for something that you don't even have proof that you've done?
Sam: Why don't you listen to Elizabeth? I mean, I know it's very hard for her to avoid blame, not to mention guilt. Whenever she speaks, it's like she's never done anything wrong in her whole saintly life, but this time I do happen to agree with her. Until there is proof that you're the one that hit me, you have to go home and be with your little boy, get well.
Nikolas: Do you think it's not hard for me to stay away from him?
Sam: No -- I mean, of course I know it's hard for you -- just don't.
Nikolas: I have to. Do you understand? I was driving and had a blackout, and I don't remember what happened. What if Spencer had been with me? That's why I stay away from him. And that's why I stay away from Alexis and -- and Kristina and Molly and everyone else, because I don't want anyone to be afraid of me.
Elizabeth: Then just have the operation.
Nikolas: It's not that simple.
Ian: You ready for your physical therapy?
Sam: Hey -- just so you know, I am not afraid of you. And I have more time on my hands than I do friends, so I would really appreciate it if you would come visit me.
Nikolas: Of course -- of course I will.
Nadine: It's the lab for you, on two.
Elizabeth: Oh, great, thanks.
Nadine: You can't get mad at them for not understanding. They don't know you can see Emily and talk to her and hold her -- as long as you don't get the tumor removed. Unfortunately, you also need to see and hold and talk to your son. Eventually, you're going to have to make a choice
Claudia: Are you -- are you issuing a challenge?
Johnny: Maybe just a warning.
Claudia: You don't want to get into a war with me over the family jewels. If anything, we need to team up against Trevor.
Johnny: I thought Corinthos was the enemy here.
Claudia: Sonny's more like a goal. What do you know about Sonny Corinthos -- besides the fact that Kate Howard, fashion-rag mogul, is trying to wear him on her arm like an accessory?
Johnny: I know that Sonny has an ex-wife. I know that Sonny has three children with two different women.
Claudia: Hmm.
Johnny: Jason Morgan's his enforcer, and, of course, there's his brother.
Claudia: Why do you say "of course"?
Johnny: I thought you knew. Sonny's brother is the district attorney.
Claudia: Oh -- wow. That must make things interesting.
Johnny: More than you know. The district attorney is named Ric Lansing, i.e., Trevor's son.
Claudia: So our family's not the only rats' nest in town?
Johnny: Trevor hates Sonny, Ric hates Sonny, and Sonny hates Ric and Trevor.
Claudia: And you're using this hatred to your advantage how?
Johnny: I haven't.
Claudia: Ok, then we have some planning to do.
Alexis: Come on, sweetie. You got to eat something, ok? I made French toast -- you love mommy's French toast. How about if I put some powdered sugar on it, ok? You can put as much as you want. Would that be ok? Look. See? Kind of looks like snow's falling on it, huh?
[Alexis sighs]
[Knock on door]
Alexis: I'll be right back, ok? All right, sweetie. Hi, come on in.
Sonny: I heard about Kristina. Is she ok?
Alexis: I was going to call you. I'm a little overwhelmed. Go on in.
Sonny: Hey! Wow, look at that! That looks good, huh?
Alexis: Yeah, I'm trying --
Sonny: It's a little too late for breakfast.
Alexis: Well, I was going to tempt her with her favorite -- she loves French toast.
Sonny: Yeah?
Alexis: But she's not eating, and she's not sleeping, and she woke up crying because she had a nightmare.
Sonny: Well, that's not good.
Alexis: No, I'm going to take her to see Lainey this afternoon. So I'm hoping that she'll make her feel better, huh?
Sonny: Yeah, and then when you feel better, then you can tell us what's going on, right? Because, you know, all anybody wants to know is what's happening, ok? You know why we want to help? Because we love you.
Alexis: Kate stopped by to see how we were doing, and she told me about her latest plans to stay in Port Charles -- to pursue her interests. Come on, sweetie. Let's go play, all right? Fresh coffee in the kitchen. Come on.
Kate: That poor little girl. Do you really think she saw the text message killer?
Sonny: I don't know. Jason seems to think that he's still out there. Whoever the bastard is -- he's dead.
Logan: You know, I've been busy -- out looking for a job, letting my ribs heal.
Lulu: Yeah, I came by your place once, you weren't there.
Logan: Yeah, you know, I've been out. Look, Lulu, I'm trying real hard to give you space, you know, after I came on so -- so strong. I didn't -- again, I'm sorry --
Lulu: Well, you didn't know what my dad did to my mom.
Logan: Hey, but there's no excuse, though, right? So, you seen Johnny?
Lulu: No. I have been staying with Lucky and focusing on school -- I've actually made it to a class or two.
Logan: Oh.
Lulu: Huh.
Logan: Right. So -- uh -- maybe I'll see you around, hmm?
Lulu: Ok.
Spinelli: Ooh!
Lulu: I don't want to know.
Maxie: Stop! Well, listen, I'm going to go to the hospital to see if Robin can I.D. that pill we found in coop's room because it could be our last clue. And you better keep your Jackal, P.I. thoughts to yourself.
[Maxie sighs]
Singer: Life is unstable
Spinelli: How's the fair one doing?
Lulu: I'm ok. And you?
Spinelli: Um -- uh -- Jackal has embarked on a new endeavor to help the protectors of the night and the people they wish to protect -- like fair Lulu herself.
Lulu: That's nice -- and vague.
Spinelli: You have to be careful. Just -- be careful, just --
Lulu: Why?
Spinelli: I've already said too much. Just -- tread cautiously, ok?
Lulu: What is going on? Being careful... it's very important to me.
Robin: Did the drugs that Patrick and I gave you make a difference?
Nikolas: No, I don't really feel any different.
Ian: And you won't. Cancers and the like require many different approaches to manage them.
Robin: Dr. Devlin has a more radical approach to medicine than I'm comfortable with.
Ian: And sometimes the radical approaches make the difference between success and failure.
Nikolas: Well, I'd like to talk to you about that -- if that's all right with you?
Ian: Whether or not it's ok with Dr. Scorpio shouldn't make any difference -- it's your life, not hers.
Robin: Nikolas, you should do whatever helps you.
Ian: Nadine? Could you have Mr. Cassadine fill out one of my patient forms, then take him to an exam room?
Nadine: Yeah.
Robin: You deliberately hijacked him.
Ian: I'm deliberately trying to save his life.
Maxie: Oh -- hi.
Robin: Hi.
Maxie: I'm sorry -- um -- would now be a bad time to talk?
Robin: Uh -- no, actually, I did some looking, but I haven't been able to find anything yet. Maybe our brilliant new member of the staff, Dr. Devlin, can identify it for you.
Ian: Actually, I can.
Spinelli: Look, I'm supposed to keep what my private eyes, ears, and fingers have been doing private.
Lulu: Maybe I don't want to know.
Spinelli: No, but maybe you should, ok? Although, it might come -- come with some ugly reprisals from wise Georgie's sister.
Lulu: What does Maxie have to do with this?
Spinelli: We've -- we've been looking into the possibility that the clean-cut cadet is not actually the text message killer.
Lulu: Uh -- you and Maxie together, doing anything?
Spinelli: As bizarre and often distasteful but eye opening as it is, we have found things that have encouraged our beliefs, beliefs that are only more encouraged by this morning's headlines. And unlike the long and often confused arm of the law, we actually have a suspect.
Lulu: Who? Who?
Spinelli: Your hostile and often high-strung would-be suitor -- Logan.
Singer: If it's worth it
[Lulu sighs]
Jax: Whew.
Carly: I don't like this.
Jax: Neither do I, but Michael is showing signs of a troubled young kid, and unfortunately, it makes sense.
Carly: Because Sonny's his father.
Jax: Not to mention the way he lost Leticia and Emily.
Carly: Oh, god, do you really think he could be taking drugs?
Jax: I -- hey, I don't know. I just think that there's something in this room that he doesn't want us to find.
Carly: I should call Sonny. You know, we should talk to him.
Jax: Yes, you should call Sonny, but we're Michael's day-to-day parents. You know, we should deal with whatever we find here first.
Sonny: What I just said brought it all back, didn't it -- the fear, the violence, the way my life works? You -- you can't do it.
Kate: It just -- it was a shock, ok --
Sonny: Ok. Huh.
Kate: To hear you talk about killing a man after you were just so tender with your daughter.
Kate: Look, it's just something I'm going to have to get used to if we have any chance of rebuilding something together.
Sonny: Well --
Kate: Unless I read too much into that kiss in your office?
Jason: Max -- Max, just listen to me for a second, ok? I don't -- I don't want excuses, I just want you to get me the information. Thank you.
Claudia: Hi. You want to shoot some pool, give me a chance to make my money back?
Jason: You know what? I have someplace to be.
Claudia: Oh. What is it that you do that makes you in such a hurry all the time?
Feb 16, 2008 12:13
Sonny: I mean, there's still a lot wrong between us. I mean, things that a -- a talk about the old neighborhood, a kiss, or even telling each other how we feel about each other is not going to -- it's not going to help.
Kate: Well, I want to do whatever I have to do to work things out, Sonny.
Sonny: So you're going to upset your entire life for what?
Kate: For something that may never happen? Yeah. I know. It's very scary for me to leave Manhattan and a sure thing like "Couture" for the provinces. And it's not really Kate Howard or Connie Falconeri territory, but it's something new, it's something in between, and it's something that I would like to try. Sonny, I had an amazing career. I -- I lived a very fast-paced existence, existing off the power and the paparazzi and the places that they could take me. And the truth is, is at the end of the day, I don't have anyone to just -- take me home. I need to slow down, and I need to figure out what's important to me, and I would really like for you to be a part of that. But if that's not possible, then I will find a way to understand. Sonny, I should've told you all this --
Sonny: Well, yeah.
Kate: I realize if it weren't for me, that we would be together right now, and I would be your fiancée and we would be planning a wedding.
Sonny: And that would be wrong. If we ever get close to that, then it's going to be right. But right now I got business I got to take care of, and I'm -- I'm letting that slip away.
Kate: Trevor.
Sonny: Not only Trevor, the Zacchara clan among other things.
Kate: Right, and if it wasn't them, it would be something else -- just like me. I have one magazine after another to put out, and you have one more issue after another to deal with, right?
Sonny: Yeah.
Kate: So, you know, if you think that we should wait for there to be peace in your life, for us to focus on each other -- I don't know. Should we just admit right now that it's a losing battle?
Sonny: I'm not ready to admit defeat. It's just that -- I don't know. You know what? I don't know.
Kate: Look, I have -- um -- I have to look at some property down on the lakefront to house the new magazine, and if I don't find exactly what I want, I might just scrap the whole silly idea anyway.
Sonny: All right.
Kate: Just say goodbye to Alexis for me?
Jason: I run a business -- that keeps me busy.
Claudia: I'm in business, too -- family business. It's hectic, stressful, killer hours. It doesn't mean I can't make time for a little bit of fun.
Jason: Me, either.
Claudia: So, maybe we could have some sometime.
Jason: I'm going to have to pass.
Claudia: Wait, I don't even know your name.
Jason: Maybe that should tell you something.
Elizabeth: Nadine is in pediatrics.
Nikolas: I'm actually not looking for her.
Elizabeth: You looking for Sam?
Nikolas: Yeah, yeah.
Elizabeth: You know, maybe you should look into it.
Nikolas: What?
Elizabeth: Proving whether you really did or did not hit Sam. I mean, something like that is not good weighing on your conscience.
Nikolas: Well, I don't know how I can prove it. My car ended up in a chop shop.
Elizabeth: How do you know that?
Nikolas: The shop got busted.
Elizabeth: Oh, well, then I'm sure the police impounded the parts, and there's probably a -- a way to maneuver around the legal means so that you can check your bumper with the police report -- just so you know, right?
Nikolas: Yeah.
Nadine: Sorry for the delay. My patient finally passed the last of the marbles she swallowed -- talk about rainbows in unexpected places. Let's go.
Sam: Well, it looks like the pieces are all starting to fall into place.
Ian: It's a research drug -- phase 1 clinical trial, fit for human consumption -- but not yet available in this country. Where did you find this?
Maxie: With my boyfriend's things -- he's dead.
Ian: Was he in the armed services?
Maxie: Why would you ask me that?
Lulu: Maxie put you up to this, didn't she? Look, I -- I get that she's alone, but to go out and purposely try and hurt Logan is absolutely ridiculous.
Spinelli: No, it didn't -- it didn't start out that way, ok? The wounded blond one just didn't want to believe --
Lulu: Oh --
Spinelli: That someone she cared about could do such a thing.
Lulu: "The wounded blond one"? Wow, she really has done a number on you.
Spinelli: I was a cautiously pessimistic participant, ok?
[Lulu chuckles]
Spinelli: I -- I didn't what to go on thinking of the possibility that wise Georgie's killer was still out there. I mean, after all she -- you know, after all she felt for me that remained unreturned because my attentions and intentions were otherwise distracted.
Lulu: By me. Ok.
Lulu: What is your proof?
Spinelli: Ok, well, it's entirely circumstantial --
Lulu: Spinelli, the proof -- come on!
Spinelli: Ok, your tone suggests that you're more interested in protecting this man than fearing him --
Lulu: You know what -- then I'm going to go ask Logan myself.
Spinelli: No, no, no --
Lulu: Then tell me.
Spinelli: Ok, the crabby commando's temper, for one, ok? Also the fact that there was a female officer strangled while he was enlisted, ok? He was the last person to see the clean-cut cadet alive, and we found Logan's dog tags suspiciously hidden in the clean-cut cadet's room that same night that the simian one planned to break in and "steal money" from his supposed friend and deceased friend.
Lulu: That's it?
Spinelli: Well -- we have other proof that, you know, points to no one in particular, but there is also the curious fact that the attacker has never targeted you.
Lulu: This is a joke.
Spinelli: Ok, also, when fair Samantha was attacked, she was able to wound her attacker in the ribs -- I believe a place that Logan started favoring the very next day.
Lulu: All right, Spinelli, where is the real proof, huh? Have you -- have you found the piggyback thing that -- that makes his text messages untraceable, or -- or a pair of black gloves or a ski mask, maybe a shrine to his victims? Anything like that?
Spinelli: No.
Lulu: No -- exactly.
Spinelli: No, but -- look, can you actually truly state that you have never in your heart believed that Logan Hayes and the text message killer are the same individual? At these speeds, I can't risk an allergy medicine
Carly: Ok, what if he finds out we were in here? That we didn't trust him and we started rifling through his stuff, and then we don't find anything in the end?
Jax: That should be a little comforting, at least.
Carly: It should be. Why isn't it?
Jax: Because if we found drugs, we would have something to confront him with. You know, maybe there's -- maybe there's nothing in here. We really can't be sure that --
Carly: He was so adamant about us being in his room. He keeps chasing Morgan out of here. What if he took it with him? Oh -- the day started so well, didn't it?
Jax: Hey, hey, you know what? It's going to end well, because we're all going to sit down for dinner tonight and we're going to tell Michael and Morgan the great news.
Carly: Our great news, our great news.
Jax: I know.
Carly: You know, being pregnant has put some wild thoughts into my head.
Jax: Wilder than unusual?
Carly: Yeah. You know the project planned for the waterfront?
Jax: Yes, by Alcazar's pier.
Carly: Yeah, what if we bought one of the buildings -- let's say the old Taylor place -- turned it into a daycare center or even a teen center? Now, that would be great.
Jax: Wow. That's a -- that's a great idea.
Carly: Mm-hmm.
Jax: Um -- it's a coincidence because Kate Howard is looking at that building for her headquarters for the new magazine.
Carly: Really?
Jax: Yeah.
Carly: Wow, I didn't know that. I should get down there and check it out.
Jax: Yeah, but just don't make this into a competition.
Carly: Honey, there is no competition. If I want that building, Kate Howard won't know what hit her.
Kate: All right, so if you could just write something up on the Taylor building, I could swing by after I see it and sign them. No, no, I'm on my way there now.
Trevor: Hi, Katie.
Kate: Hello, Trevor.
Trevor: Hey -- once upon a time, you were a smart, beautiful, young, intelligent woman. You remember those lean years when you used to get together with me, chat, ask my advice?
Kate: Just get to the point, Trevor.
Trevor: Well, but now you know better. It's no good, you throwing yourself at Sonny. Until he puts that proverbial ring on your finger, he's not serious.
Kate: Is that it? You done?
Trevor: No. Well, I hear there's promising news -- you're edging your way out of "Couture" and building something new.
Kate: Yeah, it's not really any of your business anymore, Trevor.
Trevor: Do you want my help?
Kate: Huh. If I move back to New York, right, or Timbuktu?
Trevor: No, no, no, you can stay here. I just might be able to provide you with some prime real estate property.
Kate: See, actually, I have a meeting -- right now at the Taylor building -- so I don't need your help. I don't need your help for anything.
Trevor: How can you be so sure about life? You know, you just might live to regret that.
Alexis: Here you go. Can you help out --
Alexis: I am so angry at so many people. This shouldn't have happened.
Sonny: Where's Ric?
Alexis: I don't know -- away somewhere finding himself.
Sonny: Well, good for Ric, but you know what? While you're here being D.A., trying to figure out who's -- who hit Sam, and now this -- I mean, it's not right for him not to be around. Do you get what I'm saying?
Alexis: He's not going to get his job back, even if he comes back tomorrow, because I'm going to fix this, since I'm the reason that this happened. I'm the one that made the announcement that the case is closed, instead of using my better judgment and waiting a minute before I announced it to the whole world. That way, our guards wouldn't have been down and this would not have happened.
Sonny: You can't blame yourself for this.
Alexis: Sure I can.
Alexis: And as far as Ric is concerned, let him go find himself or have a life or whatever, because it's only going to make him a better father. You know, there's only so many hours a day that you can sit around and hate yourself before you just kind of suck at showing up at a little girl's tea party -- you might want to think about that.
Sonny: I sell coffee, not tea, you know that.
Alexis: I'm talking about having a life.
Sonny: So you and -- and Kate are best friends or --
Alexis: She told me about the proposal, she told me that she turned you down -- I don't know the details. Look, you have to understand why she's afraid.
Sonny: Huh. You got to understand -- like you said, you don't know all the details.
Alexis: Ok. So give her a minute.
Sonny: You're not telling her to run for the hills?
Alexis: I get this, you know? She's perfectly capable of making up her own mind. You're very lucky to have a woman like Kate.
Sam: Where did you get all this knowledge about cars and police procedures?
Elizabeth: I'm just trying to help Nikolas.
Sam: Really? Because everything you were spouting off -- it just sounded so logical and clinical and vaguely illegal, a I was just wondering, you know, who do we know like that? And Jason was at the scene of the accident for no good reason, so maybe I need to have Lucky check into that angle a little harder.
Ian: It's marked "nh08" -- it's for liver damage. It's available in certain facilities in South America and got on the black market for the troops.
Robin: Why?
Ian: Well, it's been known to be an immune boost, as well as an adrenaline enhancer. Anyone can be a hero on one of these, and it only has a few side effects.
Robin: Bring me up to date.
Ian: Well, it sometimes starts to interfere with your sleep patterns, and if taken regularly, your body begins to secrete a sweet smell in the trenches -- that can't be all that bad, now, can it?
Maxie: Oh, my god.
Elizabeth: Nikolas? Are you ok? Nikolas -- niko-- oh, god. Ok, I need help over here! Nikolas? Go page Dr. Scorpio and Dr. Devlin now!
Elizabeth: Nikolas, just try to stay calm, ok? We're getting you help.
Nikolas: No, no. I can -- I can see her. You have to leave.
Emily: No!
Nikolas: I can't protect you anymore, you can't stay here! Don't you understand? I'm the one you need to be afraid of.
Emily: No, Nikolas, you would never hurt me, ok?
Nikolas: You have to leave! You have to leave here right now!
Emily: No, I'm staying here!
Nikolas: You can't stay --
Emily: I'm staying here!
Elizabeth: I'm going to get Patrick.
Nikolas: No, stay -- please stay with me. I can -- I can see it.
Elizabeth: See what?
Nikolas: Emily at the -- at the ball. There's someone -- there's someone else there, I didn't do it. I didn't kill -- I didn't kill her.
Elizabeth: Then who? Nikolas, who do you see?
Spinelli: The wounded blond one and I were very much into the case of the text message killer, who seems very much at large. Then Lulu came in and --
Jason: Ok -- we can get to that, ok, just stay with me on what Sonny wants.
Spinelli: Ok, there's practically no information on Anthony Zacchara's daughter, but there is a picture. It is the daughter of darkness indeed.
Jason: What? What do you mean?
Spinelli: You have already met Anthony Zacchara's daughter.
Sonny: Skye Quatermaine, Chandler -- 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.
[Carly sighs]
Elizabeth: Who killed Emily? [Emily groans] Nikolas: Emily -- Lulu: You are the text message killer! Sonny: I don't want you here. Claudia: I have a lot of other surprises for you. Sonny: No!
Feb 18, 2008 11:06
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.
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?
[Clanging noise]
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: 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.
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?
Feb 18, 2008 11:11
Claudia: I've never understood the attraction to women like Kate Howard.
Sonny: You don't know anything about Kate Howard.
Claudia: I know that the two of you were bust, or you wouldn't have been looking to get lucky in that cocktail lounge.
Sonny: I wasn't looking for anything.
Claudia: Really? You could've fooled me.
Sonny: Get your coat.
Claudia: It's hot in here. You don't feel that? What are you doing?
Sonny: Max! Get in here.
Max: What can I do for you, boss?
Sonny: Yeah, this is Claudia -- she's hot.
Max: Extremely.
Sonny: That's not what I meant.
Max: I'm sorry.
Sonny: Are there a lot of people in the coffee shop right now?
Max: Yes, boss, it's busy.
Sonny: Ok, I want you to -- I want you to see Ms. Zacchara to her car.
Max: Yes, boss.
Sonny: No, no, no, no, no. I want you to wait, give her her coat when she gets outside, because we don't want Ms. Zacchara to get overheated.
Claudia: You wouldn't dare.
Sonny: Go!
Sonny: I don't want you anywhere near here. I don't want you, because I don't want your tongue suddenly down my throat and a knife in my back.
Claudia: I don't have to be in knife-throwing distance to take you down.
Claudia: That wasn't a warning, by the way. There won't be a warning.
Alexis: You agreed to keep your eyes on my daughter in her hospital bed while I took a break. But you didn't. You vanished, you disappeared. You want to know what happened while you did that? Some maniac came in and tried to kill her. Then he showed up on my deck and scar the hell out of my other daughter, who's now walking around in a catatonic state. So you have a lot of nerve thinking you can walk in here and apologize to me like you left me in the middle of a movie before it ended, because whatever excuses you come up with won't cut it.
Jerry: I was burying someone, Alexis.
Jason: Don't do anything without proof.
Maxie: Pfft. What are you waiting for? Keep digging.
Spinelli: Well, I -- I still have one more online lesson to complete before I get my Mickey Spillanian sheepskin.
Maxie: Your what?
Spinelli: Doesn't matter. I shall jackal the simian one's medical records and see what I can discover.
Maxie: Great.
Johnny: You really think Logan could be the killer?
Maxie: Why, Johnny? Are you worried about poor Lulu? Don't be -- unless you failed to notice that the text message killer has never come after her, only your maniac father. As long as Logan and Lulu are tight, I'm sure she'll be fine.
Johnny: There could be a problem.
Mike: Hey, guys, have either of you seen Daniel?
Maxie: No. Why?
Mike: Well, he's -- he's been AWOL. He called me with some cock-and-bull story about a pulled muscle in his side, and I -- I haven't heard from him since.
[Jazz plays]
Spinelli's voice: [As Sam Spade] Her lips were a one-way ticket to trouble. And she had these legs -- two. She was the kind of dame you couldn't take home to mother -- without mother wanting to slap some sense into ya.
Mike: What'll it be, doll face?
Spinelli: Try on some respect, Mike-O, you're talking to a lady.
Mike: What'll it be, miss doll face?
Maxie: Maybe something to keep me warm?
Mike: Coming right up.
Spinelli: Beat it, Mike-O. I'll handle this.
Spinelli's voice: I was doing the sap a favor. A couple rounds with this kitten and he'd wind up in a wooden kimono. It wasn't his fault. He just had "chump" written all over him.
Spinelli: Why don't we go someplace where we can be alone?
Maxie's voice: What's wrong with you -- we are alone.
Maxie: And why are you standing so close to me?
Spinelli: [Normal voice] Just -- just putting down my coffee cup. Why don't we go someplace where we can be with other people?
Maxie: Talk some sense, Spinelli. Do you have stuff on Logan or not?
[Lulu shudders]
Logan: It was a bit jarring -- going from death and desert to reality TV and shopping malls. Then I remembered back to the unit. I used to -- to tinker on jeeps and tanks and old trucks. It kept my hands busy and my head down. It kept me -- it kept me from seeing some of the ugliness in the war. I was needed, you know. I don't know -- I thought I could get into a garage. You know, I went around and I got some of this stuff. I've been doing, like, my own refresher course. I -- I thought maybe I could retool some old, you know, car for us and, you know, get a -- get a garage. I've been telling you I wanted to do something with myself. And then I thought, "what -- what is Lulu going to want with a mechanic? Grease on his hands, a loose 20 in his pocket, when Johnny's got -- he's got the cars, he's got the pocketful of cash?"
Lulu: I never compared you to him.
Logan: It doesn't matter, Lulu, I did. I did! That little punk didn't have to do anything, his daddy gave him everything, when I wouldn't take a single thing from my father. Don't you see? Anything I got for -- for me, for us, it -- it had to be gotten with my own two hands. But that -- Johnny was always there. He was in my face, in my face. You know, he's all in your arms.
Lulu: What are you talking about?
Logan: I saw you. I saw you, I saw -- I -- the day that I came on too strong, I -- I went to go find you, to apologize. God, I didn't want to find you where I found you. You didn't want anything to do with me, but you didn't have any problem getting down with Johnny, did you?
[Logan sighs]
[Splash]
Alexis: You're going to need a much bigger bouquet than that if you ever want to show up at my front door again.
Jerry: Actually, it's not for you.
Lainey: Have a seat here. Ok.
Alexis: Hi, sweetie. Feeling all right?
Lainey: Let me talk to you.
Jerry: Hi there, darling. I thought this might brighten your day. See? See how wonderful it looks with your coat? Come on, here, take it. There you go.
Alexis: So?
Lainey: Well, the good news is she's not as shut off as she was the last time.
Alexis: Good news.
Lainey: Well, and the bad news is if we can't get through to what she saw, then it's going to take longer to get through.
Jerry: And the last time was?
Alexis: She saw Sam kill someone.
Lainey: Just watch her, keep engaging her, but don't push the issue of her remembering one way or the other. I'm going to need to see her again soon.
Alexis: All right, I'll call you.
Lainey: Ok. Bye, Kristina. I will see you in the next day or so, all right? And if you want to talk to me, you just tell your mom, ok? Call me if there are any sudden changes?
Alexis: I will. Thank you, Lainey.
Lainey: Ok.
Alexis: Ooh. I'd like to smell that, it smells so good.
[Alexis sniffs]
Jerry: I'd be -- I'd be honored to be added to your patrol.
Alexis: Explain something to me. Why was it so important to you to help Maxie set up this proper burial for Cooper?
Jerry: Well, I didn't get to that because Lainey pulled you into her office and -- I mean, you are still my lawyer, and we still have confidentiality, don't we?
Alexis: Somehow, I'm afraid we still do.
Jerry: Well, it's the past, and I had one with Cooper Barrett. I mean, nothing would be solved by bringing this to light, but -- you see, Cooper Barrett was one of my men during the hostage crisis and Maxie knew it. They were both locked up in the vault together, and somehow they -- they hit it off. And sadly, Cooper Barrett had no one else in the world but that lovesick girl and -- and yours truly, so I -- I just wanted to make it up to them. And I'm sorry about Sam, and I'm sorry about my dereliction of duty -- I apologize.
Alexis: Who are you? Never mind. I'm sure you have other undisclosed confidentialities that could be much worse. Come on, Kristina. Let's go home. Let's go see Molly.
Jerry: Here you go.
Alexis: Thank you. Come on, baby, it's all right. There we go. This way, this way. There you go. Come on, sweetheart, we'll go home and see your sister, huh? We'll make popcorn, watch a Disney movie. Wouldn't that be fun?
Patrick: Hey. You got a minute?
Ian: Well, for you, two -- barring any interruptions from beautiful women.
Patrick: Wow -- still in there.
Ian: Who?
Patrick: My buddy from med school -- from your prior actions, I thought I lost him.
Ian: Yeah, well, earlier I was worried about a patient. What about you? You still the same kind of guy who could ace a P-Chem. final after puking up an all-nighter of tequila at the strip club?
Patrick: It's a theory we could test.
Ian: Life happens. Medicine still holds a lot of possibilities, so do we. Maybe we just need to be more serious about them.
Maxie: Wow -- Logan's medical records? I can't believe you hacked into the hospital's computer.
Spinelli: Federal offense, blond one? If you announce it a little louder, perhaps the -- the authorities will hear you.
Maxie: No one heard me. What's your problem?
Spinelli: No, it just -- look, when The Jackal is in the zone working on a case with my new P.I. license -
Maxie: This isn't an official case, and you're not even a real P.I. yet.
Spinelli: We're on a search for the killer of your wise and compassionate sister -- who secretly and inexplicably had feelings for me. Why I could've inspired such devotion may forever remain beyond my comprehension, but -
Maxie: Is it so hard for you to believe that someone could love you?
Spinelli: Look, I -- I agreed to help you find the person who took her from us, and the thought that she suffered at the hands of the crabby commando, of all people, is -
Maxie: I get it.
Spinelli: Ahem. Um -- ok, so you thought the killer had a -- you thought the killer had a distinctively sweet smell?
Maxie: Yeah, yeah, and dr. Devlin said that that could be a side effect of the experimental drug.
Spinelli: Right, nh08.
Maxie: Right, the drug we found in coop's room.
Spinelli: Right, I will look in Logan's records for a drug of that name or a similarly experimental-sounding moniker.
Maxie: No, Spinelli, that's not right.
[Spinelli stammers]
Spinelli: I can't do this -- I -- I can't do this anymore.
Nikolas: I was right there. I was right there, I started to see it all. There was -- there was someone else in the room. I -- he -- he came out of nowhere and hit me. And -- and I remember I fell, and I -- I looked up and I -- I saw someone, a- a man, I think. He had the cord around Emily's neck. I tried to see his -- his face. I just -
Nadine: And what?
Nikolas: I couldn't. I don't know -- the images, they just -- they went away. Something happened and they just went away.
Emily: I'm here.
Nikolas: She's here.
Nadine: This may sound weird, but Emily was there, too.
Nikolas: Where? What do you mean?
Nadine: Emily -- she can give this whole thing reason.
Nikolas: She's an hallucination -- part of this thing that's growing inside my brain, you understand?
Nadine: Right, which means she's a part of you. And maybe your subconscious can't deal with seeing Emily killed, it's too painful, so it won't let you remember.
Nikolas: I was in a blackout, in a rage. I never remember what happens.
Nadine: Yeah, but I think the part of you that's Emily does.
Lulu: You followed me to the Haunted Star?
Logan: Followed you again. The first time was when you went to patch up crazy boy after he blew up one of his family's boats. I can only imagine what went on the first day. Somehow I figured if you were upset, that's where you would go.
Lulu: No, it wasn't like that. He was hurt, I helped him, and that's it.
Logan: Oh, right, right. So you were drawn back by fate?
Lulu: We didn't do anything.
Logan: Well, you know what? That's not what I saw.
Lulu: Yeah, we kissed, but we stopped -- he stopped.
Logan: Oh! Ok. So I'm supposed to believe that Anthony Zacchara's crazy-as-bat-spit son is really gentleman Johnny, and me, the simian one -- I'm just out for a quick feel?
Lulu: We didn't do anything!
Logan: Why should I believe you? You don't believe me.
Lulu: Because you won't explain why you have those gloves and the mask and this phone!
Logan: I was going to use -- I was going to use it! I was going to use it to set up Johnny, to make him look like the killer. Do you believe that?
Spinelli: Reminder -- personal bubble?
Maxie: What?
Spinelli: My -- you invading my personal bubble -- I -- I can't concentrate!
Maxie: You hacked into the safe at the Metro Court when you were surrounded by armed mercenaries who were shooting at people and threatening to blow the place up, and you're telling me I'm breaking your concentration by just standing next to you? I know what's going on here.
Spinelli: You do?
Maxie: Yeah, well, it's pretty obvious you're not doing a very good job in hiding it.
Spinelli: No, The Jackal -- look, The Jackal is not like other men. A pronounced lack of socialization at an early age left me with erratic and unconventional personal interaction, ok? Whatever you think you may have gleaned from my -
Maxie: I think you pretty much hate my guts.
Spinelli: Oh.
Maxie: And I think you resent the hell out of the fact that I forced you into helping me by threatening violence, but you know what, Spinelli?
Spinelli: I -- well -
Maxie: I don't really give a damn, because this is my sister we're talking about. And I don't care how I make you feel or how uncomfortable you are around with me, you're stuck with me. Because until I'm positive that we found the real killer, I'm going to be the first person you see in the morning, and the last person you see at night before you go to sleep. And if you can't deal with that, tough.
Logan: It wasn't hard to find any of this stuff. You know, I went into the police commissioner's, I went into Sam McCall's, I got a wool cap, I rubbed it around for some D.N.A. I was going to -- I was going to take all of it and put it in the back of Johnny's car and call an anonymous tip. I -- I didn't care whether he was the killer or not, it didn't matter to me. I just wanted time to be alone with you and show you that I loved you, and that there's nothing I wouldn't do for you.
Lulu: No, no, no, you just wanted to cover your own tracks and make another scapegoat like Coop was, so -- another diversion for the police so you could keep on killing.
Logan: No. No.
Lulu: Yes, I am going to go to the police. I'm going -- no --
Johnny: Open up the door, Hayes. It's time we had a little chat.
Nikolas: That's crazy.
Nadine: Is it? We don't know half the things the mind is capable of. There's selective memory and sometimes protective memory. Have you ever asked Emily who killed her?
Nikolas: No. She always said I'd never hurt her, though.
Emily: And you never would.
Nadine: You didn't want to believe her.
Nikolas: Look, I thought it was protective memory or whatever. I thought I was blocking out the ugly truth of the whole thing.
Emily: All right, so ask me.
Nadine: So ask her. Ask Emily if she remembers what happened the night she died.
Elizabeth: He was right on the verge of seeing it. He said there was someone else there.
Jason: Well, how do we know it's not just something going on in his brain?
Elizabeth: Because I have believed from the start that there is no way Nikolas could ever kill Emily. When you love someone that much, you protect them, even at the cost of hurting yourself.
Jason: Ok. Just -- just keep me posted, ok?
Elizabeth: Do you think we can see each other tonight?
Jason: I'm sorry.
Elizabeth: It's all right.
Jason: Yeah?
Sonny: Where are you?
Jason: I'm taking care of something.
Sonny: Ok, try making one of them your job. Listen, I got a -- I got a report of a shot fired down here near the Taylor building. All right? Kate's been looking to buy the place, so I think we need to scout it out.
Jason: Well, so Kate's our business now?
Sonny: Business is what I tell you, Jason!
Jason: I'm sorry, not tonight.
Elizabeth: It's ok.
Jax: Kate? It's Jax. I'm -- I'm just calling to check in. I know that you were heading down to the Taylor building, and Carly and I were just down there. It's not the safest place, so just be careful and call me as soon as you get this, ok?
Carly: Dr. Lee said that me and the baby are fine.
Jax: But?
Carly: The dizziness was caused by bad circulation, and I need to drink more water.
Jax: Oh, really, you should drink more water? Equal or -- or more than the amount of soda that you already drink?
Carly: And snacks -- I have to eat more snacks.
Jax: Right, like fruit and yogurt -- instead of pretzels and day-old pizza.
Carly: Were you standing outside the door and listening?
Jax: No, I wasn't standing outside the door.
Carly: I'm allowed to have some fun.
Jax: Conceiving our little girl was the fun part. It's boot camp from now on.
Carly: You are just so sure that this is a girl, aren't you?
Jax: Fathers get to have intuition, too, you know?
Carly: Ok, I'm going to let you have it. So when we sit down and we talk to Michael and Morgan, we're going to tell them to brace themselves -- they could have a frilly-pink, doll-carrying, dress-up-playing little sister on the way.
Man: Ready to get underway?
Second man: The anchor's stowed, the lines are secure.
First man: Well, let's go. That cargo's not going to move by itself.
Sonny: Did you tail Claudia?
Max: I tried, boss, but she lost me.
Sonny: Ok, I want you to try harder, because I want to know every move she makes. Because I know she's -
Sonny: Kate? He-- hey? No, no, no, come here. No, no.
Lulu: Aah! Johnny: Hey! Jason: What happened? Sonny: The Zaccharas. They did this. Emily: Don't you want to know who killed me? Aah! Oh, god.
Feb 19, 2008 08:46
Sonny: I need -- I need an ambulance. The Taylor building. A woman's been shot.
Nadine: I'm at a disadvantage here because you can see Emily and talk to her but I can't. So, does she seem to have an opinion on this?
Nikolas: You think that I can't remember who killed Emily because my subconscious doesn't want to relive her death? But that Emily -- this perfect hallucination in my mind -- can?
Emily: Nikolas, I've never tried.
Nikolas: And you won't start now. We're not doing this.
Alexis: I said that you could walk us to the car and somehow you've managed to walk us to the door.
Jerry: Well, you can thank me by mixing me a drink while I check the premises.
Alexis: I told you that I don't need your help.
Jerry: I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for Kristina. I'm going to find the person who did this to her.
Lulu: No, no, no, no, you just wanted to cover your own tracks and make another scapegoat like Coop was, make another diversion for the police so you could keep on killing.
Logan: No, no, Lulu.
Lulu: Yes, I am going to go to the police, I'm -
Logan: We're going out the back together, ok? It's going to be all right.
[Pounding on door]
Johnny: Hayes!
Logan: Shh, shh, shh. I can't let you go until you believe me, ok?
Johnny: At least have the stones to do this face to face!
Logan: No, I can't let it play out like this again -- Johnny looking like the hero, and me --
Logan: Look, you got to believe me, ok? I'm going to make you believe me. Agh!
Lulu: Johnny! Johnny! Ugh!
Leyla: The plaid one.
Robin: Excuse me?
Leyla: The baby blankets -- it looks like you were having a tough time deciding. I think the plaid one's nice. It could be used for a boy or a girl. Look, we -- um -- work in the same hospital, there's no reason why we can't be civil.
Robin: I just don't really feel comfortable talking about this baby with you.
Leyla: Actually, I was talking about the blanket.
Robin: Well, anything about the baby.
Leyla: Why? You and Patrick have just broken up, I don't understand.
Robin: Patrick is probably not the best subject if we're going to be civil.
Leyla: Uh, ok. I refuse to play this role I've been consigned to.
Robin: "Role"? What -
Leyla: Yes -- predator and home wrecker. You and I both know that's not how it happened. I couldn't break up you and Patrick even if I wanted to -- which I didn't. You know, the only thing more offensive is that it casts you in the role of victim, and you're anything but. You wanted something Patrick couldn't give you, so you moved on. You wanted to have a baby, you decided to use an anonymous donor which, for the record, I think is actually pretty brave. But that's the last I'll say on the subject.
Patrick: So this is where you ran off to?
Robin: I didn't run, I just -- um -- you know, I just really couldn't stand Dr. Devlin's pontificating, heavy bedside manner any longer. If you haven't noticed, I've really tried to avoid him.
Patrick: Really? Funny -- it seems like I'm the one you've been trying to avoid.
Nikolas: Look, I don't care if this is just some trick in my mind. I'm not going to make this perfect image I have of her remember her own death.
Emily: But I want to.
Nikolas: But you can't unless I ask you to, right? I'm not going to ask you to do that.
Nadine: Uh -- trying to rationalize this is like trying to dunk a doughnut by the ears, but let's look at the facts, ok? You had some kind of seizure -
Emily: Because it's getting worse.
Nadine: Probably because the tumor's growing, which caused you to go back to those awful moments before Emily was killed. You were having an episode so you'd blacked out because you thought you did it.
Emily: But it's not true, Nikolas -- we know that now. We just don't know who did it.
Nadine: It's impossible to think of a person you love dying, so you went past that.
Nikolas: Oh, god.
Nadine: But you want closure.
Nikolas: I don't want -- I don't want closure, I want Emily.
Emily: That's not possible anymore, not the real me.
Nadine: You can't have her, but you can have a life beyond this -- with your son and with all the wonderful memories of the person you love, knowing that you didn't do this to her but that you helped bring her killer to justice.
[Nikolas laughs]
Nikolas: And how am I supposed to do that? Right, I -- I tell the police that I heard it from some hallucinogenic hologram?
Nadine: No, you'll tell them that you remembered, because you did. Why are you being so resistant to this?
Marianna: Here you go. Let me know when you're ready.
Ric: What the hell are you doing?
Marianna: I'm sorry. Did you say two over-easy?
Man: Yeah.
Marianna: Ok.
Man: I can't afford daydreams -- neither can you.
Marianna: Toast?
Man: Sure.
Marianna: No more gifts.
Ric: It was Valentine's Day, I just saw it.
Marianna: Huh.
Ric: I thought it would go good with your new coat.
Marianna: Oh, I -- oh, it's beautiful.
Ric: No arguments about accepting anything.
Marianna: Oh, I don't deserve your kindness.
Ric: Hey, everybody deserves kindness.
Marianna: You wouldn't think that if you knew what I'd done.
Ric: What have you done?
Sonny: Hold on, don't quit on me. You wouldn't before no matter how hard I pushed. Listen to me. I know I haven't been able to give you what you need, but I just want you to know -
[Sonny sobs]
Sonny: That I love you -- the girl you were, the woman you are. And I'm begging you from the bottom of my heart -- don't leave me. Please don't leave me.
Jason: Sonny, what happened?
Sonny: Ah.
Jason: What happened?
Sonny: The Zaccharas.
Jason: Are -- are you sure?
Sonny: They did this.
Jason: What -- what did you see?
Sonny: She said I wouldn't see it coming, that there wouldn't be no warning.
Jason: Who -- who said this?
Sonny: Claudia Zacchara.
Jason: When did she say this?
Sonny: She came to my office today. She was saying all kinds of stuff about Kate, trying to get a rise out of me, I took the bait. She wanted to see what kind of weaknesses I had so she can come at me.
Jason: Not -- not like this. It doesn't -
Sonny: She did this!
[Siren]
Jason: Ok, Sonny -
Sonny: If it wasn't her, it was Johnny or his lunatic of a father or Trevor! There's the sirens, let's go. You got to get out of here. Go, go, cops. Hey, listen, listen. I'm going to tell you right now, whoever did this is going to pay, ok? Man: That's it, we're ready to shove off. Come on.
Det. Rodriguez: So you just happened to be walking down the same side of the street at the same time?
Sonny: How is she?
Det. Harper: Let them do their job, help us do ours.
Det. Rodriguez: Just moments before Ms. Howard took a bullet -- you expect us to believe that?
Sonny: I don't give a damn what you believe!
Det. Rodriguez: Did you exchange fire with the shooter?
Sonny: How -- how bad is she? How bad?
Det. Rodriguez: You can answer the questions here or down at the station -- makes no difference to me.
Sonny: Yeah, I'm going to go with them.
Det. Rodriguez: You're not going anywhere.
Sonny: Get your hands off me! The only way you're going to stop me from going into that ambulance is by killing me! Ok, you guys need to get your hands off -
Det. Harper: Ok. All right.
Sonny: She's -- she just got shot!
Det. Harper: We can question you at the hospital.
Robin: I have no reason to avoid you.
Patrick: Yeah, you do -- the baby. It's the elephant in the room, impossible to ignore -- the reason why we broke up, a constant reminder of what went wrong between us.
Robin: Whoa, whoa, I -- I don't think about you nearly as much as you imagine.
Patrick: What about the baby's father? Do you think about him much?
Robin: Well, when you use a sperm bank, they don't give you much information about the donor.
Patrick: You ever wonder about him? I mean, obviously you know his hair color, his eye color, his -- his blood type, but what about the important things? His personality, his lifestyle? You ever wonder if he's a family guy or a free spirit that never really wanted kids on his own?
Robin: Where are you going with this?
Patrick: I guess anywhere you want it to go. Are you uncomfortable?
Ian: You know, just in case the two of you have forgotten. Mr. Cassadine was left upstairs in the throes of some kind of personal nightmare. Do you think we could take the time to treat him before he slips away from us altogether?
Nikolas: I just -- I don't want -- I don't want to put Emily through that.
Emily: Nikolas, I want to do it.
Nikolas: I'm not going to sit here and watch you remember someone killing you.
Nadine: But she wants to do it, doesn't she -- for you?
Nikolas: She'd do anything for me.
Emily: And there's nothing you wouldn't do for me.
Nikolas: Except save you.
Nadine: I know there are only two people in here right now but I am starting to feel like a third wheel, so -- um -- I'm just going to "duck out."
[Door opens and closes]
Nikolas: So what's next? Just sit here and argue with you -- with myself?
Emily: This isn't just about you and me. It's about Leticia and Georgie -- they died, too. And now someone's after Sam and Alexis and Maxie. Don't you want to know who killed me?
Nikolas: Yes. But if I do, I'm afraid you'll go away.
Emily: I know that you don't want to face this. But your tumor is growing. It's already changing how you see me, when you see me.
Nikolas: You look beautiful.
Emily: Yeah, because Nadine called you an idiot and told you to keep celebrating our life and our love while I'm still with you. There's going to be time enough for mourning.
Nikolas: I know. You're right. I know the tumor is growing. And it will until I have no choice. They'll just tear it out of me anyway -- tear you out of me.
Emily: Then let's make every second count.
Alexis: "One day there was a storm and a human was thrown from the deck of his ship. Ariel rescued the man, whose name was prince Eric. She instantly fell in love with him. The evil sea--" let's skip that part. "But prince Eric bravely steered his ship into Ursula and destroyed the giant sea-witch for good."
Alexis: "King Triton was proud of Ariel and grateful to Eric for saving his undersea kingdom. He turned the little mermaid into a human and gave them his blessing to marry. They sailed off into the sunset, happy at last."
Jerry: No, no, no, I haven't gone after the deed -- I don't need to. You see, I've got a way to bring the deed to me.
Lulu: I -- I came here to prove Maxie wrong and to find out why his dog tags were in coop's room and why he has an injury in the same spot that -- that Sam said she kicked her attacker, and -- and I thought there would be logical explanations. But then I found the ski mask and the gloves and this -- this thing on the phone with a piggyback that makes your text messages untraceable.
Johnny: You sure that's what this is?
Lulu: He admitted it.
Johnny: He did all this.
Lulu: He admitted that he was going to use it all to frame you.
Johnny: Well, it's all over now.
Johnny: Oh, my god.
Lulu: Did I kill him?
Marianna: I have to get back to work. I need this job. And after you leave, I'm -
Ric: I'm not going anywhere, not until you answer my question. What did you want to tell me? I'm in no position to judge, ok? Whatever it is, believe me, I have done things much worse.
Marianna: No.
Ric: You said I don't know you, right? Ok, you're wrong. I know the lengths you're willing to go to to prove what you believe in. You were ready to burn this even though you knew how valuable the land is.
Marianna: Yeah, I wish I had -- even if it meant you hating me.
Ric: How could I hate you? How can I hate you for wanting to save my soul? For wanting to end the cycle that my father started in that house, where I first laid eyes on you? Marianna, I came here looking for answers, ok? And now I -- I realize I was asking the wrong question. It doesn't matter whether I have my name on -- on that piece of paper. The real question is, can I change who I am fundamentally? Can I put someone else first -- other that my daughter, I mean? Can I put myself on the line the way you did for me? And another thing I know about you -- I know you're scared of someone, right, or something? Let me help you, let me in. It doesn't matter what you say, it's not going to change the way I think about you.
Marianna: No -- no.
Ric: Please.
Marianna: No, you won't say that after you find out what I've done.
Man: Marianna, order up.
Marianna: Coming.
Lulu: I can't believe I did this. If anything happens to him -
Lucky: I should've known. I warned you.
Johnny: You warned her about the wrong guy.
Lulu: If Johnny hadn't come, I don't know what would've happened. Logan was freaking out.
Johnny: She figured out Logan was the text message killer. All the evidence is right here -- the gloves, the ski mask, the device used to piggyback the text messages on to other people's phones.
Scott: All right, look, nobody touch anything, this is a crime scene.
Lulu: I didn't mean to hurt him.
Johnny: What the hell are you doing?
Lulu: He was freaking out. When Johnny came in, he grabbed me and he put his hand around my mouth and he tried to take me out of the back and I was really scared. So I grabbed a wrench and -
Johnny: Don't say anything else without a lawyer. You know Baldwin can't be involved in this investigation -- he's Logan's father for god's sake.
Scott: Hey! This is going by the book.
Johnny: What, we're supposed to take your word on that?
Lucky: Baldwin, you know you have to recuse yourself.
Johnny: He won't believe a damn thing Lulu says.
Scott: Lulu is not going to convince me of anything. I already suspected my son is the killer.
Robin: I've known Nikolas for a long time. We've been through a lot together.
Ian: Well, does anything from the good old days actually stand to treat his condition?
Robin: No.
Ian: Well, neither does your drug protocol.
Robin: That's because it needs time to work.
Ian: Well, I'm not sure how much time Mr. Cassadine has left. Well, you just let me know if you can fit us in in between purchases.
Patrick: Ok, you're out of line.
Ian: Why -- for pointing out that Dr. Scorpio and I do not share the same -
Patrick: Dr. Scorpio is a very dedicated physician. Yes, she is pregnant. She's waited a very long time for this and it means a lot, so back off!
Robin: You didn't have to do that.
Patrick: I know.
Emily: I'm not sure what to do.
Nikolas: Neither am I. When I collapsed, it just started coming to me -- I wasn't trying to remember anything.
Emily: All right, so then maybe you just need a little push. Just try to focus on what you saw.
Nikolas: I can't protect you anymore, you can't stay here!
Emily: No, Nikolas, I never should've left you.
Nikolas: Look, don't you understand? Don't you understand? I'm the one you need to be afraid of.
Nikolas: But you have to leave! You have to leave here right now!
Emily: No, I'm staying here! Nikolas, I'm staying here!
Nikolas: You can't, you can't. Do you understand me? You can't -
Emily: Nikolas! No -- it -- stop --
Paramedic: Gunshot. B.P. 70/40, heart rate's 140. You got diminished breath sounds on the left side.
Leo: All right, get her into cubicle one.
Paramedic: All right.
Monica's voice: Chief of cardiology and here I am on the sidelines -- thank you very much, Tracy.
Leo: I'm going to thread in the chest tube. Prep her site. How's her breathing?
Leyla: It's diminished.
Leo: Ok. Excuse me. Prep O.R. Four, ok? I could use you in there, you know?
Monica: Well, thank you for saying that.
Leo: I understand with your daughter's death, it was too soon and still fresh. But you're ready to go. And if it was up to me, you'd be in O.R. with a scalpel in your hand.
Monica: Thank you.
Monica's voice: I would be if Tracy wasn't out to get me.
Leyla: We have to prep her for surgery. Mr. Corinthos, you have to let go.
Sonny: Doctor, can you tell me what she's facing?
Leo: Well, the bullet punctured her lung and it's causing it to deflate. So we're putting in a chest tube in hopes that it'll re-expand. From what we could tell, the bullet is very close to her heart.
Sonny: Tell me, doctor.
Leo: Her heart's in danger, and she could suffer permanent damage.
Feb 19, 2008 08:48
Emily: Oh -
Nikolas: Stop -- stop, stop -- stop! Emily -
Nadine: Oh, my god.
Nikolas: Emily?
Nadine: What -- what happened?
Nikolas: She's gone. She's gone -- ow!
Nadine: Ok, what did Emily say?
Nikolas: Oh -
Ian: "Emily"? Wasn't that your fiancée?
Nikolas: Oh -- oh -
Alexis: Shh. Mac has police posted all over the grounds so you don't need to police the place, and you don't need to escort me anymore anywhere again.
Jerry: Well, as I told you, I -
Alexis: No, don't start telling me that this is all about Kristina because it isn't true.
Jerry: You would rather chew ground glass than accept my help, wouldn't you?
Alexis: Because I don't think you really want to help me. I think that you just want me to be grateful. Wouldn't that be the perfect attorney/client bonanza? That way, I would be obliged to extend my legal services to you, to facilitate whatever morally repugnant schemes that you're trying to pull off.
Jerry: That's ridiculous.
Alexis: Or maybe you're just following me around until I'm desperate enough or overwhelmed enough or lonely enough to turn to you for comfort.
Jerry: And is that such a bad thing, Alexis? Hmm? Come on, Alexis.
Marianna: Thank you, have a good day.
Marianna: The truth is I came to this country to work and to make a better life. Then I soon learned about a certain kind of American who looks at me -- you know, a woman, a -- a foreigner -- like a third-world country to control and exploit.
Ric: The bruise on your neck?
Marianna: This has nothing to do with what I'm trying to tell you.
Ric: It's Alexis -- it's Molly's mother. I told her to call me if there was an emergency.
Ric: Alexis?
Jerry: No, it's Jerry Jacks.
Ric: What are you doing calling me on Alexis' phone?
Jerry: Because the mother of your little girl is too proud to. She -- she wants to be strong, to manage things on her own.
Ric: Well, Alexis is the acting D.A. right now so if she's having any problems in the department, she's going to have to unfortunately go to Baldwin, all right? I'm dealing with a lot right now.
Jerry: Yes, I know -- Alexis told me you took some time off to do some soul-searching, yeah. How's that going? Any -- any grand revelations?
Ric: I told Alexis to call me if there was an emergency.
Jerry: Well, Kristina, your stepdaughter, saw the face of a serial killer, has gone into a catatonic state. How does that qualify?
Leo: All right, more suction. Retract that back. Ok, bovie? The bullet's almost against the pericardium. Ok, pickups? All right.
[Leo sighs]
Leo: Easy.
Jason: Sonny -
Sonny: Who ordered the hit, which one of the Zaccharas?
Jason: We don't know if -
Sonny: Who? Who ordered the hit?
Jason: I'm -- I'm still waiting for word.
Sonny: You're still -
Jason: Sonny, trust me, I'm going to find out who did this.
Sonny: This is -- this is exactly what Kate was afraid of. This is what we do to the people in our lives. This is what we do to the people we say we love.
Sonny: We say we can protect them. We take all the necessary precautions, we live by a code, we expect them to live by it. Kate was absolutely right to run when I asked her to marry me -- she should've kept running.
Jason: That's not what you wanted.
Sonny: You want to know what I wanted? I wanted to destroy every trace of her, to cut her out of my heart, but Kate didn't give a damn. You have no idea how tough -- how tough she is. Nobody does. People look at her, they just see a shiny, empty woman, easy to break.
Sonny: You have no idea.
Leo: Damn it -- lacerated an artery. She's bleeding fast -- suction? I can't see where it's coming from -- come on.
[Alarm]
Leyla: Her B.P.'s bottoming out.
Leo: More suction. Hang another bag of blood, please?
Leyla: We'll need to clamp the artery.
Leo: Go for it.
Leo: Damn -- come on.
Leyla: Got it.
Leo: Get -- ok, good. Good, good, good, good, good.
Sonny: You know what's amazing? Kate was willing to accept me as I am, danger and all. I couldn't do the same for her. I wanted her to change.
Jason: And she still wanted to find a way to make it work. I bet she still does when she comes out of this. You know you can't blame yourself.
Sonny: Find out who I do blame.
Sonny: What happened, Bobbie? How's it going?
Bobbie: Well, this could take hours. This is a complicated surgery.
Sonny: You know what I mean, Bobbie.
Bobbie: She's in good hands with Dr. Julian.
Sonny: That doesn't -
Jason: Wait, Sonny -- hey, listen -
Iris: I was told you came in with Ms. Howard, that you are the responsible party.
Sonny: A woman is fighting for her life, and that's all you care about? You want money, I got money. Where is it? I got it right here. Here you go, how much you want? Is it worth her life?
Jason: Ok, Sonny -- Sonny -
Sonny: No, I'm just asking her -- she wants -- you want money? Take the money!
Jason: No, stop. Stop.
Sonny: It's good, fine.
Jason: She's just doing her job.
Jason: Can I go do mine?
Ric: I can't believe this is happening again.
Jerry: I gather from Alexis' discussion with Dr. Winters that Kristina had suffered a similar episode after she saw a man shot.
Ric: Ok -- um -- tell Alexis that we've spoken and that you brought me up to speed. Um -- is Kristina there?
Jerry: Now she's asleep.
Ric: All right -- uh -- well, you tell Alexis to tell Kristina that I'm on my way.
Jerry: I'll do that, yeah.
Marianna: Your stepdaughter, Kristina?
Ric: Yeah, she -- she can't speak, she's not responding. Uh -- it's happened once before. I have to go, she needs me.
Marianna: Of course.
Ric: Look, this isn't the way I -- I wanted this to -- to be.
Marianna: I -
Ric: I mean, there's a -- there's a lot of things that I -- I want to say to you.
Marianna: I know. I -- we should just settle for a goodbye.
Ric: Yeah, for now. Goodbye, for now.
Marianna: Ok. Goodbye, for now.
Ric: Ok.
Ian: I'd like some time alone with Mr. Cassadine if you don't mind?
Nadine: Ok.
Ian: So, you had another attack of memory?
Nikolas: Something like that.
Ian: Yeah, guilt can do serious damage to the mind.
Nikolas: I didn't kill my fiancée.
Ian: You said that with extraordinary conviction -- something I hear you haven't had before. Look, I -- I've seen your charts, looked at your tests. I've heard opinions and suppositions from Dr. Drake as well as Dr. Scorpio. The tumor's growing. It's going to kill you. So I guess my first question is, do you want to die?
Nikolas: No.
Ian: Well, then I assume you must have some good reason for postponing the surgery that could save your life. What do you want?
Nikolas: Not to have the surgery. But I know that's impossible, right?
Ian: Not necessarily.
Patrick: What do we got?
Paramedic: Blunt trauma to the side of the head. Skull fracture, possible cranial bleeding. B.P. is 140/80, pulse 122. G.C.S. four.
Patrick: Get me an E.T. tube and a laryngoscope. We need to intubate and hyperventilate him. 10 milligrams of decadron push and start him on a mannitol drip. Ok, guys, I got it from here.
Lucky: This is a patient we need to keep close tabs on.
Patrick: This patient's not going anywhere but the O.R.
Lucky: All indications are is that he is the text message killer.
Patrick: The guy who killed Emily and Georgie?
Lucky: And my sister could've been the next victim tonight.
Scott: Wait a minute, Lucky, "could've been." The only victim is my son, and your sister put him here!
Ian: There's a new drug I'd like to try out on you. It is extremely experimental, extremely expensive, and -- well, let's just say it's not readily available in this country.
Nikolas: Well, I'll go wherever it is.
Ian: No, you can't, not with the size and the placement of the tumor. Any change in altitude and pressure at this stage of the game would surely mean a death sentence for you.
Nikolas: Oh. But you'd risk bringing it here to me -- why?
Ian: Do my motives matter?
Nikolas: According to Dr. Drake, I'm in this situation because of a drug I was injected with, you understand?
Ian: Mm-hmm -- by Mr. Jerry jacks, yeah. It was in Dr. Drake's notes. Well, this Mr. Jacks and I may share a common interest in drugs outside the established medical community, but that's where the similarity ends. I want to help you. Unfortunately, I -- I can make no guarantees. At the very least, we might slow the tumor down, maybe even shrink it to a more manageable size.
Nikolas: When would we start?
Ian: As soon as you can offer me some guarantee that this goes no further than the two of us.
Marianna: Ric!
Marianna: You -- you dropped this.
Ric: Why?
Marianna: Because now you know the question, and you have to come up with the answer.
Ric: Thank you.
Man: Your playmate's gone. Now you have to deal with me.
Johnny: Lulu was defending herself.
Scott: But you didn't see what happened.
Lucky: Baldwin, he's your son. You have zero objectivity.
Johnny: You already said you thought he was the killer.
Scott: He's still innocent until proven guilty.
Johnny: Oh, and you want to make damn sure that doesn't happen, don't you? Let's be honest -- that's what this is all about, isn't it?
Scott: I want to make sure that my son does not die here today, all right? Now, you people don't get to be judge, jury, and executioner.
Lulu: You can't let that happen, you have to save him.
Patrick: Contrary to popular belief, I don't think I'm god. The patient doesn't have to pass a moral litmus test in order to get the be treatment I can give. Let's go. He needs an M.R.I. If he's too unstable to move, get a stat X-Ray. We'll see how bad this is.
Elizabeth: Ok, I'll get a portable unit right away.
Patrick: And tell them to hurry, nurse.
Iris: It is -- it is an unfortunate fact of funding a -- a privately funded hospital, Mr. Corinthos, and a -
Sonny: You here to finish the job?
Johnny: What the hell are you talking about?
Sonny: Anything happens to Kate, you're a dead man.
Leyla: Her B.P.'s dropping and she's bradycardic.
Leo: We've got another bleeder -- damn. She can't spare any more, she's got none in reserve. I need a clamp. Give me a clamp.
[Monitor flatlines]
Claudia's voice: I want to see you suffer. There are ways to get rid of you. Ian: Given any thought to my proposal? Patrick: Got a cerebral bleed. Sonny: Kate was shot tonight. Patrick: Clear. Sonny: Did something go wrong?
Feb 20, 2008 09:23
Tracy: What are you doing in hospital garb in a hospital room?
Luke: I was hoisted by own petard.
Tracy: As I recall, you used to like that.
Luke: Not this time. It was that delectable fish chili I made. It repeated on me -- food poisoning. I had to check myself in last night.
Tracy: Save it. I don't believe you. You're up to something, what is it?
Claudia's voice: No, daddy, no! Stop, get away from me, daddy! Get away from me!
Man: Your city boy's gone. You done slumming with the locals? Did you kiss him? Did you? After all I've given you, after all I've let you have?
Marianna: "You let me have"? That's the way you treat me, huh? That's the way you see me -- like a dog -- como una perra! I've worked day and night for you here -- man: Nothing's going to change, and you know why! Marianna: Yeah, because you told me lies, because you made promises for me to come here! And now you use me to bring in the male clientele because I'm "good for business"! Well, you know what? I am done. Se acabo, me voy.
Man: You don't want to be good for business? I'll make sure you're not good for anything.
[Marianna screams]
Ric: Hey! Get the hell away from her!
Patrick: Get a P.T., A P.T.T., And repeat the C.B.C. What was he hit with?
Lulu: Um -- a wrench. It was with all these car parts on the table and I -
Elizabeth: Lulu -- don't say anything.
Officer: This guy killed Commissioner Scorpio's daughter. I say she deserves a medal. Now, if you're not able to revive this piece of garbage, no one's going to shed any tears.
Sonny: Did you order the hit on her, or did you pull the trigger yourself?
Johnny: I don't know what you're talking about.
Sonny: Answer me!
Lulu: What is going on?
Sonny: Kate was shot tonight.
Lulu: Johnny was with me.
Sonny: That only means you gave him an alibi. It does not mean he was not responsible.
Leo: All right, I'm going to start cardiac massage. One milligram epi, please. Hand me the internal defibrillator paddles. Charge to 30 joules.
Leyla: Charged.
Leo: Ok. Clear.
Luke: Is this any way for a hospital board member to treat a weak, suffering patient?
Tracy: Can it. Why are you in this room taking up a hospital gown?
Luke: Were you this suspicious when we were happily married?
Tracy: We were never happily married.
Luke: Oh, Tracy, I beg to differ. I remember many, many nights when our nuptial numbers were high.
Tracy: That was sex. Sex and marriage have nothing to do with each other.
Luke: What's this? What, you've been sleeping in the supply closet?
[Luke laughs]
Tracy: I -- uh -- I tried to sneak back into the house, but Monica had Alice posted on guard dog duty.
Luke: Oh, baby, I told you I've got a perfectly fine room for you above Kelly's.
Tracy: Yes, you do, with a bed too small to divide down the middle.
[Tracy sniffs]
Tracy: I smell bourbon.
Luke: Uh -- well, that's probably just, you know, me detoxing all -- after all the sweating from the fish chili.
Tracy: What's in the bed?
Luke: Uh -- bedpan.
Tracy: I don't believe you.
Luke: Oh -- I can't -- oh! Look at that -- now you've spoiled the surprise! The moment is ruined. Oh, well. Happy Valentine's Day, love of my life.
Ric: Get your hands off of her.
Man: Turn around and walk out of here, city boy.
Marianna: Randy, no!
Randy: This is not your business.
Marianna: Ric, no, he -
Ric: It is now. Ugh! Ugh!
Marianna: No, randy, stop!
Randy: Agh!
Ric: Come here.
[Randy groans]
Ric: We'll lock up for you. Agh. Come on. I want you to come with me.
Marianna: No, I'm not! No.
Lulu: Johnny wouldn't hurt Kate.
Sonny: You don't know what they're capable of, Lulu.
Lulu: Johnny is not his father any more than Michael and Morgan are you.
Sonny: Come on!
Lucky: What's going on? Sonny, let him go. Sonny -- let him go.
Sonny: Your sister's hanging out with the wrong crowd. Johnny's already using her for an alibi.
Lulu: Johnny is not using me for anything.
Sonny: Talk some sense into her!
Nurse: Bring three more units of O-Neg to O.R. Four, stat.
Cassius: Ok.
Sonny: I'm sorry -- uh -- you said that Kate -- O.R. Four -- that's where they're operating on Kate, right?
Nurse: Yes.
Sonny: Can you -- can you just tell me what's going on?
Nurse: You know what? They're doing everything they can. I'm sorry.
Lucky: Lulu -
Lulu: If Johnny hadn't been there, I don't know what would've happened. When I confronted Logan about being the killer, he just went off.
Maxie: Oh. Now do you believe me?
Anthony: Couldn't do it, could you?
Tracy: Valentine's Day was last week.
Luke: Last week I didn't have enough puka shells to purchase a symbol of my affection.
Tracy: Your usual symbol of affection is a bald-faced lie about skimming my bank account.
Luke: Toothpaste. Oh, hand sanitizer. Ah, body lotion -- now, this could come in handy.
Tracy: In your dreams.
Luke: Soup?
[Tracy sighs]
Luke: What, do you build a little campfire in that supply closet, pull out your harmonica and sing Arlo Guthrie tunes? "Campbell's Healthy Request." You know, this is the kind of stuff that's supposed to be on my culinary regime -- that, along with exercise. Lots of hot, sweaty exercise.
Tracy: Stop trying to avoid the subject.
Luke: I'm trying to execute a seduction here.
Tracy: With half-priced chocolates? I smell bourbon, I know I smell bourbon!
Luke: Well, it's -- it's just me sweating, it's the detox -- I keep telling you. No, I was trying to plan a little seduction because -- well, because you're here all the time and you're alone and you're homeless, and you're sneaking snacks and naps and showers. You've been cast aside, cast out, cast down -
Tracy: Oh, my god, cut to the chase!
Luke: I done you wrong, wife. I done you a string of wrongs. You were just trying to help me stay alive and protect what we had together.
Tracy: You fought me tooth and nail.
Luke: No, really, what I fought was this condition that life dumped on me. I railed against gods I don't even believe in, and I threw a tantrum like some spoiled brat against the doctor who told me I couldn't live life my way. But I really wrong you. Now, maybe you do have a good medical case against Monica, but it's me you're mad at. I'm the one who brushed your feelings aside. I'm so sorry.
Tracy: I'm also mad at myself for caring about you.
Luke: You're my lifeline, Tracy. Could we please get past this?
Tracy: Hmm. Ok, it depends -- is it drugstore or boutique? Oh, well, never mind, I'm hungry.
Luke: No, no, no, it's over, it's too late.
Tracy: What does that mean?
Luke: Ah, the moment has passed. It's -- it's all ruined now.
Tracy: But I said I was hungry.
Luke: Well, I'll get you a banana from the cafeteria, or -- or we could slurp some of this soup.
Tracy: Why are they half-eaten?
Luke: Well, the lovelorn get hungry.
Tracy: Bourbon!
Woman: Hi, papi, I'm back!
Claudia: Couldn't do what? Take advantage of you while you're helpless? Press down and squeeze the last pathetic, disgusting breaths out of you? Yeah, I could.
Anthony: So why didn't you?
Claudia: I don't know. Maybe I want to see you suffer. Maybe there are ways to get rid of you that won't make my life more of a living hell than you've already made it.
Anthony: Huh -- what ways?
Claudia: I don't know. Maybe I'll go talk to your doctor and find out.
Marianna: I don't need your help. I can take care of myself.
Ric: I'm sorry I got in the middle of that whole thing, but that guy was all over you.
Marianna: Go back home! You owe me nothing, ok? Why -- why did you even come back here?
Ric: When I left, I was so concerned about Kristina that I didn't leave you my number in case you needed to get ahold of me. Look, Marianna, I knew -- I knew when I left here and I said "goodbye for now," that you didn't believe it. I -- I knew you thought that I was walking out of here and I wasn't going to turn back. Why? Why? Because that's exactly what you've come to expect from a guy like randy. How have you gotten involved with a guy like that?
Marianna: Because I had no idea he was "a guy like that." Ok, I believed all the things he said, or I just wanted to believe them so much. But I'm stronger now, I'm smarter now!
Ric: I just want to help you get out from underneath this.
Marianna: It's not that simple.
Ric: You have a cut on your head, I've got to take you to the hospital.
Marianna: No, I can't, I can't! I can't just walk away.
Ric: That's exactly what you need to do. You need to walk away from this so that you can figure out where to go from here.
Ric: I am not going to let him hurt you again, ok?
Marianna: You don't get it! He can have me deported!
Nikolas: Will you just do what I say and find it? Look, I'm sorry -- I'm sorry, Alfred. I just -- I really need that book, and I know I left it in the bedroom somewhere. So will you please find it and bring it here as quickly as possible? Thank you.
Ian: Any thoughts on my proposal?
Nikolas: You mean that drug you want me to take that's not even available in this country?
Ian: Well, that's the first part, the second is keeping it quiet.
Nikolas: Patrick's my doctor, robin's my friend, what -
Ian: They'll both tell you not to do this and have me suspended. This is against all medical policy and, most likely, moral reason.
Nikolas: Then why -- why would you take the risk? You don't know me.
Ian: You're looking for help. More and more patients are dying from red tape than they are from disease. If this works, we should know in a matter of days. The tumor, as well as the swelling around the site, should decrease, and you can travel safely abroad without your head imploding. You can have treatment in a proper research facility where the wheels of medicine still turn, and not a place like this where medicine just keeps turning a profit. However insignificant, this tumor should begin to shrink, and then stop growing altogether, then it can be removed in a procedure that's half as long, half has invasive, and carries half the risk of permanent damage you'd have if you had the surgery that Patrick and robin are recommending you have now.
Nikolas: What about side effects?
Ian: I'll take responsibilities. Given your blood work, the possibility does exist, but no more than taking a new prescription advertised on TV for a runny nose and winding up with renal failure. Huh. I leave it in your hands. [Alarm]
Elizabeth: Dr. Drake, he's seizing.
Patrick: He's got a cerebral bleed.
Elizabeth: B.P.'s 200/110.
Spinelli: Did the -- did the simian one cause you any harm, fair Lulu?
Lucky: This just happened. How -- how did you hear?
Spinelli: Well -- uh -- while casting my net into the data-infested cyber-ocean, I may have inadvertently -
lucky: You hacked into the PCPD?
Maxie: It doesn't matter how he found out, ok? Is Logan under arrest?
Patrick: Prep O.R. Two, tell them we're on our way.
Maxie: They're trying to save him -- and you let them? Why did you even call the police, Lulu?
Lulu: What are you saying?
Maxie: You should've let him die.
woman: I haven't forgotten about you.
Luke: Huh.
Woman: I think I have just what you've been asking for. Hmm.
Tracy: That woman is -
Luke: Uh -- uh -- Ramona, I think -- I think her name is. She's custodial staff.
Tracy: I was going to say "drunk." Because, clearly, you have been plying her with chocolates laced with alcohol -- bourbon to be exact.
Luke: Just a few cc's in the soft centers.
Tracy: Oh -- you handed me a bowl of Luke Spencer fish chili, and I was stupid enough to swallow it hook, line, and sinker.
Luke: No, everything I said about us was true, absolutely true. The rest of it was a lie.
Tracy: My first clue should've been when you snuck back into the hospital, my second clue should've been when you acted sincere.
Luke: No, you know, you have got this all wrong.
Tracy: Really, which part? The part about you being lower than the dirt a snake's ass? Or the part about you being so old and desperate, you have to con the custodial staff into having sex with you with loaded bonbons?
Luke: You know, you are going to feel really foolish when you know the truth about this.
Tracy: You wouldn't know the truth if it bit you on the butt!
Luke: Oh, no, not in the head. No, don't hit me. Don't hit me in the -
Tracy: Your head is not the problem!
Luke: Ow!
[Luke groans]
Marianna: Things were getting really dangerous where I lived in Venezuela. And that's when I met randy, and he seemed to be the answer to all my prayers. I didn't know English very well, I couldn't read it at all. So he arranged to get me a visa to come into this country and he gave me the papers to sign, and, you know, I -- I just got -
Ric: Yeah, that's when you figured out he wasn't the guy you thought he was.
Marianna: He made so many promises. And then I get here, and all he wants me to do is work here in the coffee shop or -- and then go home and be his housekeeper and - and anything else he wanted me to do at night. You know, he didn't even pay me enough to get by. He said I owed him thousands of dollars because of what he had done to get me the visa to get into this country. He didn't want me to go out, he didn't want me to make friends, he didn't -
Ric: He wanted an indentured servant.
Marianna: If he imagined me being interested in another man, he would get so angry, and the anger would turn into violence. And that's when I decided I -- I have to leave.
Ric: It's ok.
Marianna: And that's when I found out that he had filed false information. And so the government would be able to throw me out of the country, even though I haven't done anything wrong.
Ric: Ok, I'm going to straighten this out, whatever the problem is.
Marianna: Your immigration doesn't work like that. They're not going to care that a foolish girl believed the wrong guy.
Ric: Marianna, I'm an attorney, this is what I do, ok? Maybe not immigration law, but I'm going to find you the best. You're going to get your life back and you are going to live it the way you want to live it.
Marianna: I don't deserve this.
[Anthony chuckles]
Anthony: The vultures are gathering.
Trevor: Nah. You're already picked clean.
Anthony: Thanks to you.
Trevor: You're pretty alert.
Anthony: You don't like that, do you?
Trevor: Come on, Anthony, don't get crazy on me.
Maxie: I don't know why you look so shocked. You're the one doing Johnny Zacchara, junior mob boss, who's probably let people die for a lot less.
Lulu: You don't know what you're talking about.
Maxie: I bet Johnny would've covered for you, maybe even let Logan die a little quicker. You wouldn't mind getting rid of the competition, right?
Spinelli: Ok, wounded blond one, perhaps you should refrain from angry hyperbole -- saying things you don't mean?
Maxie: I'll tell you what I mean. Logan attacked me, and he killed my sister, and you're going to stand here and act like he's a victim?
Johnny: You're out of line.
Maxie: He's the text message killer.
Lulu: Even if he is, it doesn't mean that I -
Maxie: "If"? What about all that stuff Spinelli and I found out about him, or the evidence you found against Logan in his room? He attacked you, Lulu, and tried to make you his next victim, and you're going to stand here and give the guy the benefit of the doubt? Wow -- and you think I'm screwed up. You might not have the guts to let him die, but I definitely do.
Mac: Maxie, that's enough.
Sonny: What's happening with Kate?
Bobbie: There's nothing I can tell you right now.
Sonny: It's -- did something go wrong?
Bobbie: Sonny, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can tell you that's going to give you any comfort.
Cassius' voice: Precious lord take my hand and lead me on help me stand I am tired I am weak I am worn through the storm through the night lead me on to your light take my hand precious lord and lead me home when my way grows drear precious lord think of me when my life is almost gone hear my cry hear my call catch me when when I fall take my hand precious lord and lead me home take my hand precious lord and lead me home

Tracy: Stop moaning, you big baby, it could've been a lot worse.
Luke: Oh, it could've been a lot better if you'd let me explain.
Tracy: Ok. Well, I've gotten out some of my aggression, seen a little justice -- not much, but some -- so why don't you show me how well you can lie when you're in pain?
Luke: How about getting a doctor in here?
Tracy: No, I think you should keep talking. It'll heal faster if you have a clear conscience.
Luke: All right. Ramona was on the nightshift when I was laid up in here last month. You'd be amazed what kind dirt the custodial people have on the staff here.
Tracy: What does that got to do with anything?
Luke: I told you that I was going to find something for you to hold over Monica's head, to get the cash flowing again. Ramona works with homeless shelters and charities. She and some other members of her church go through the -- agh -- they go through the castoffs -- you know, the linens and the clothes and stuff that the -- the staff here throw out for charity, for donations.
Tracy: Oh. So what are you saying, that Monica ran over somebody while drunk, and then she was ready to donate her car?
Luke: We really need a doctor.
Tracy: We really need you to keep talking.
Ramona: Here it is!
Luke: Oh -- ow.
Ramona: Are you all right?
Tracy: Oh, yeah, he's fine. Come here, honey. Knock yourself out, share it with your friends. Is that what you were looking for?
Luke: Have a look for yourself.
Tracy: I recognize this.
Luke: Perhaps you recall who wore it.
Mac: Maxie -- Maxie, look, I know what you're feeling right now. I know how you want the guy who took Georgie away from us to pay, but you're not like this.
Maxie: Then you do not know how I'm feeling right now.
Scott: Hey, Mac? Have you got any new information?
Maxie: Yeah, dad, why don't you have a nice little chat with Mr. Baldwin about how his son murdered your daughter? Excuse me.
Scott: Listen -- uh -- I want to catch your daughter's killer as much as you do -- and I will, Mac. I will -- even if it is my son.
Mac: I can understand why you wouldn't want it to be.
Mac: Lucky told me that you've been in on this with Maxie. She obviously trusts you.
Spinelli: She had use for me -- it's not quite the same.
Mac: Look, I want you to keep an eye on her, make sure she doesn't do anything impulsive or stupid.
Spinelli: Yeah, The Jackal will do his utmost to control the uncontrollable one.
Lulu: Huh. Can you believe the things that Maxie said? Oh.
Johnny: I don't want to.
Lulu: You don't want to what?
Johnny: Believe that you still have a thing for Logan. But that's what it sounded like.
Lulu: Oh.
Jax: Sonny, what the hell happened? How's Kate?
Sonny: How do you know?
Jax: Carly was interested in the Taylor building. The realtor's office said that it was a crime scene down there now, that Kate had been shot. How bad is it?
Sonny: It's bad.
Jax: Well, what did they say?
Sonny: It's not what -- it's what they didn't say, Jax. They brought in three more pints of blood, a cardiologist is -- is working on her full-time. It's not good, do you understand?
Jax: So the bullet is near her heart, is it?
Sonny: Ok, go ahead, tell me.
Bobbie: She's still fighting, but we need to know, is there someone we can call? Does she have a next of kin?
Mac: We'll skip how you got this information on Logan Hayes, what I think about your hacking methods, and get right to the part where you tell me what you dug up that got all this started.
Spinelli: It -- it was the wounded blond one that started everything out, you know, not wanting to accept that the man she loved was the warped one, the killer of wise Georgie. I -- I didn't want to get involved, I resisted.
Mac: What did Maxie offer you -- or what did you expect in return?
Spinelli: What? No, no, no, I -- that thought never entered my mind. Um -- I would never think of the wounded blond one like that, like a girl.
Mac: What changed your mind?
Spinelli: She forced me into helping her.
Mac: "Forced you"?
Spinelli: Yes.
Mac: Maxie? How?
Spinelli: She scares me. Doesn't she scare you?
Elizabeth: When I bring Logan Hayes up from post-op, I'm going to put him in room 1017.
Johnny: The way you were talking, it was like you weren't sure if Logan was guilty. How is that possible after you were just so scared?
Lulu: That's it, that's it, that's it. I was scared, I was confused, and the more that I think about what Logan said -
Johnny: He told you he was planning to set me up.
Lulu: That's because he's not blind. He senses this -- whatever it is -- between us, and he wanted to get you out of the way so he could have a chance with me, and it is a terrible thing to have considered. But it wasn't murder, and he didn't threaten to kill me to shut me up. He just wanted to take me away to convince me of the truth.
Johnny: And you believed him, after all that crap you found in his room? What did you think he was going to say?
Lulu: I don't know what to think.
Johnny: I think your father had the right idea -- throw Logan off the roof.
Lulu: You talked to my father about Logan?
Luke: Oh, the swelling is getting worse.
Tracy: Monica had this on all day -- who can forget this color brown?
Luke: It's turning blue. It's blue with bumps.
Tracy: I had the extreme pleasure of telling her that her surgical privileges had been suspended.
Luke: And there's -- there's little hints of purple.
Tracy: Then all of a sudden she shows up here in hospital scrubs.
Luke: Can skin turn this shade of green and not fall off the bone?
Tracy: Then she reported that her car had been stolen?
Luke: There's more in the bag, take a look.
[Tracy gasps]
Tracy: Bingo!
Luke: Did I do good?
Tracy: Yeah, you did ok.
Luke: Can I -- can I have a doctor now?
Tracy: Uh -- yeah, just as soon as I get you to county.
Luke: "County"? Tracy, no, no, not county! They -- they do organ harvesting over there and they do experiments on people!
Tracy: Really? Do you think they can trade your brain with a monkey's and maybe you'll come back more sensible?
Luke: I can't believe that you would treat me like this, not after everything I did for you -- not after what you've just done to me.
Tracy: Sweetheart, they can't treat you here, remember? No insurance, no puka shells.
Luke: Can't you just blackmail Monica enough to get me some pain meds?
Tracy: Oh, sweetheart, I wouldn't let Monica near you. What if she turns on you in your weakened condition?
Luke: I can't believe you're doing this to me. County is inhumane treatment.
Tracy: Don't make this about you, I need the element of surprise with Monica. This has to be handled very delicately.
Luke: Ow! Oh, god. Oh -- oh, wait, wait, wait, wait! The bourbon.
Tracy: Oh, I'll come back and have it later. Move your hands, watch your feet -
Tracy: Mind your knee.
Luke: That's -- ooh!
Tracy: Ok, sweetheart.
Luke: Agh, ow!
Ric: You know, you're so used to people telling you that you don't deserve anything that you're starting to believe it. But you deserve to be happy. Hey -- I don't want anything from you that you don't want to give willingly. I didn't want to leave the vineyard, ok? I wanted to stay here. I wanted to stay here, I wanted to get to know more about you and what this could be. But I -- I have to go because my -- my stepdaughter, Kristina, needs me, and you need help.
Marianna: No, but it's too much to ask, I just -
Ric: Listen to me, let's -- can we not -- can we not think about anything but right now?
Ric: You trust me?
Marianna: Yes.
Ric: Hey -- I'm not going to let anybody hurt you anymore.
Trevor: I am the first one you call if his condition changes. Now, it is important that things stay the way they are, you understand me?
Orderly: Yes, sir.
Bobbie: There's nothing in Kate's chart about next of kin, who she would want notified.
Sonny: Like I said, Bobbie, I'll -- I'll take care of it.
Bobbie: Ok.
Jax: What's that supposed to mean?
Sonny: It's none of your business, Jax.
Jax: Sonny, you know Kate confided in me after you shut her out. She told me all about her past as Connie Falconeri from Bensonhurst, and how you were involved when you were teenagers. But she never once mentioned her parents and what they know, and how she would want this handled.
Sonny: I don't want you to handle this, I want you to stay out of this. You don't know anything.
Jax: Well, I know one thing -- she's in that operating room fighting for her life because of you.
Claudia: I'm back.
Anthony: Who the hell are you?
Claudia: Don't play games with me, old man.
Anthony: Don't you come in here and get smart with me. Maria? Maria, who let this whore in my room?
Claudia: Maria is dead, dad!
Anthony: She's not dead, you bitch! Somebody, get in here and get this whore out of my room! Somebody get my wife!
Orderly: Ma'am, you'll have to leave.
Anthony: I want my wife! I want my wife! No, no, you're not my wife! Don't stick me with that! Don't stick -- don't st-
Sonny: Don't presume to judge me, Jax. The choices life forced me to make, forced Kate to make. You think you know her? You have no idea. This person she created to walk into a world inhabited by people like you -- the entitled.
Jax: No, you're right. I don't know Kate, I don't know that girl that you fell in love with. I hope I get the chance to.
Sonny: Johnny's got an alibi, do you?
Johnny: I was pissed off and fed up with people trying to get me to do things I didn't want to do. This mess that I call my family, with all the danger that I put you in -- so I came up here. Your -- your father showed up and he found me standing on the ledge with my arms spread wide open, he floated the idea of giving me a push.
Lulu: Hmm. But he climbed up and joined you instead.
Johnny: How'd you know?
Lulu: Oh, because you're speaking his language -- life on the edge.
Johnny: I told him I was going to stay away from you.
Lulu: What did he say?
Johnny: That it would only make the situation more attractive.
Johnny: I never felt the way Logan did -- that this was some sort of competition.
Lulu: I know, I know. But even if the worst is true, and Logan did all that stuff, how can I live with myself if I killed him?
Johnny: Come here.
Spinelli: Everyday hero Samantha was certain she did serious injury to the attacker when she kicked him in the ribs. And then the simian one -
Mac: Logan.
Spinelli: Right -- turned up the next day with an exact such injury, after which the goddess -
Mac: Sam.
Spinelli: Was hit-and-run. Speaking of which -- newly accredited Jackal, P.I., might have some useful information for you on that case.
Mac: Wait a minute. You've got a private investigator's license?
Spinelli: After successfully completing an online detecting course, I am now well-versed in the sacred 49 rules. And though I am a lone wolf and free of the constraints of traditional law enforcement, I might be willing to share -
Mac: Since my daughter is the driving force behind all of this stuff with Logan, maybe the person I should be talking to is my daughter.
Maxie: You killed my sister, now you're going to pay. Max: Michael never showed up for practice today. Sonny: If Kate dies, you're a dead man. Is she ok?
Feb 21, 2008 09:33
Carly: Hey, don't spoil your appetite. When Jax gets home and Michael gets back, we're going to have a special dinner, ok?
[Carly chuckles]
Carly: A special dinner for a special announcement.
Carly: Hi.
Jason: Ok, I need to talk -- what's wrong?
Carly: Nothing's wrong. Matter of fact, everything's perfect. No one knows, but I really want you to know -- I'm pregnant.
Johnny: You have an amazing heart. Logan could've killed you when he walked in on you and here you are hoping you didn't kill him.
Lulu: And hoping that I'm --
Johnny: That you were right?
Lulu: Oh, I was so panicked and scared. He just had an answer for everything.
Johnny: Including using all the text-message killer tools to frame me? Is he really someone who would feel that threatened by the idea of us that he would go that far? Because if there's a shred of doubt in your mind that he's guilty, you need to tell someone and tell them now.
Maxie: You killed my sister. You tried to kill me and Sam. I used to want to know why but it doesn't matter anymore, Logan, because now you're going to pay.
Anthony: You -- you -- yeah. Oh -- oh.
Anthony: What the hell are you doing here? What are you doing to me?
Claudia: I'm not doing anything to you, daddy. What -- what's Trevor doing to you?
Sonny: Tell me who ordered the hit on Kate and I might let you off the hook. I'll just sever a couple of nerves so you and your friend Anthony Zacchara can bunk up like a couple of talking heads.
Trevor: There was no hit.
Sonny: Who ordered it -- you, Johnny, or Claudia?
Trevor: Sonny, I am as afraid for her as you are. I love her.
Sonny: Fine, go ahead and lie. But if Kate dies on that operating table, I will take out all four of you.
Sonny: Is she ok?
Jax: Sonny --
Leo: Ms. Howard's not dead. She's in critical condition, but she's not dead. And I came here to apologize to you gentlemen for waiting so patiently without news, which obviously has left you more than tense.
Trevor: How is she?
Sonny: You don't have to ask how she is.
Jax: Sonny, please. How's Kate?
Leo: She's got a bullet lodged between her heart and her lung, she's lost a lot of blood. But she ca through, and she's in guarded condition now.
Sonny: What do you mean, "guarded"?
Leo: The angle of the bullet -- it came up at her like the weapon was fired from ground level. Now, we tried to remove it without damaging any surrounding areas, but it's in a very precarious location. Let's just say she's got a fight ahead of her. Now, we're going to watch her for the next 48 hours, see how she improves, ok?
Sonny: Can I see her?
Leo: Yeah. We're moving her to I.C.U., she'll be there. You can catch her in there.
Sonny: Sounds like a snake in the grass just waiting for Kate to come by.
Jax: Sonny, listen, no one could've known that Kate was going to be there.
Sonny: Trevor knows a lot of things, some -- some day he's going to know too much.
Jax: Let him go so that you can be here for Kate.
Sonny: You're right, too many doctors around -- they'll try to save you anyway. I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to wait, find a nice piece of secluded, private property -- right by the water.
Trevor: Did you hear that?
Jax: Well, make no mistake. If I find out you had anything to do with Kate's shooting, I'll be there to watch.
Carly: You know how Jax and I were trying to have a baby?
Jason: Yeah, I know what a pain in the neck you were when you weren't succeeding.
Carly: More like a monster, ok? Excuse me for wanting you to claim your son with Elizabeth, I'm sorry.
Jason: Here we go. Here we go again.
Carly: No, I won't start, you know, I just wanted to tell you, I wanted so badly to tell you -- we haven't even told the boys yet. We kind of wanted to sit with it for a while.
Jason: I'm happy for you.
Carly: Thank you. That means a lot to me.
Jason: When did you find out?
Carly: Well, I first officially found out the night of that horrible storm. That's why I'm thinking for the baby's room, I'm going for sunny yellow, you know, whether it's a boy or a girl. Jax swears it's going to be a girl. But you know, when I was driving down the road and the rain was pouring and I'm reaching for my cell phone, I'm thinking "boy, boy, boy."
Jason: Is that -- is that while you were driving?
Carly: Yes. Please don't give me a lecture. Jax already talked to me. I'm fine, the baby's fine.
Jason: That was the night Sam got hit.
Lulu: I went over to Logan's apartment to prove that Spinelli and Maxie's accusations about Logan were wrong. Logan said that I wanted him to be guilty so it would make it easier for me to choose you.
Johnny: If it's about choosing, that's not how I want to end up with you.
Lulu: It's not supposed to be a competition.
Johnny: I'm sorry if I made it one.
Lulu: I'm the one who couldn't make up my heart or my mind.
Johnny: It's never been a problem for me. Whatever made me send you away or keep you at arm's length, it never had anything to do with how I felt about you. It's about the price I knew you'd have to pay if I told you what I wanted.
Lulu: What do you want?
Lulu: It's cold.
Johnny: We should see if it's ok for you to get out of here, and if it is, we can go someplace warm.
Maxie: Huh. Logan -- huh -- what kind of person does what you do? Strangles women, chases them into traffic so they could get hit-and-run and die? I wish you would wake up, just for one second, so you could see me standing here with this cord in my hands, so you could know that your air supply is about to be cut off and you're going to choke to death and die -- just like you tried to do to me. I wish you would wake up just so you could know you're going to die and you could feel helpless -- like you did to Georgie.
Mac: You were supposed to be watching Maxie.
Spinelli: Ok, no one "watches" the wounded blond one when she's in her retributive state of thinking, not even The Jackal.
Scott: You know, jughead, you might want to get off the computer because you -- you just talk gibberish.
Mac: You know, you and Maxie have approached this like some mystery board game. She needed more time with Lainey, more time to rest. You know, she didn't allow herself enough time to get over coop's death before she jumped into this obsession.
Spinelli: Ok, but it was in that driven state that we uncovered the real killer.
Mac: And whatever else you've helped my daughter feel driven to do tonight.
Scott: Give me that.
Maxie: Relax, it's for the lamp. Not that I didn't pull it out, and not that I wasn't looking for something a little more destructive. It's just when I did, the charm on my bracelet that Coop gave me made a little noise and I could -- I could just feel him telling me not to do this to myself. So I didn't.
Spinelli: I -- I should endeavor to --
Mac: Don't endeavor, do! Is -- uh -- is he ok?
Scott: I guess so. And when he wakes up, I'll let you know. I know you got a lot of questions -- as do I.
Sam: Logan Hayes is the killer?
Alexis: I don't know all the details, which is why I'm here. I just thought you'd want to know.
Sam: Yeah, of course I do. Thank you. Wow, I don't know. Part of me is relieved, but the -- the other part I -- it just doesn't make any sense. Logan was new in town -- why would he want to kill any of us? He didn't know any of us. Something is missing.
Lucky: Logan had to have surgery. He's still unconscious.
Alexis: So no confession yet, then?
Lucky: No.
Alexis: You have been on your feet too long, all right? Maybe you could take her back to her room?
Sam: Wow.
Lucky: I know -- who would've suspected Logan?
Sam: No, I was talking about the blatant way my mother was trying to push us together. But, you know, I can get back to my room on my own.
Lucky: No, I can take you back.
Sam: No, really, it's not necessary. You have done really good work, Detective Spencer -- one down, one to go. Now all you got to do is figure out who hit me with their car and then this will all be over and done with -- just like us.
Carly: Wow. I'm standing here telling you -- sharing with you the -- the happiest news, and you're going to ruin it by bringing up Sam?
Jason: I know you and Jax wanted to have a baby. I'm not here to try to spoil that, Carly, I'm not trying to ruin anything. I just need to know.
Carly: How do you know Sam didn't hire someone to run her over for the publicity? She's fine. She will live another day to shoot another episode of "Everyday Heroes," and who knows, maybe tell us how we can combat a home invasion of aliens with, what, duct tape and -- and spray starch!
Jason: Carly, it was raining --
Jason: You said you were distracted.
Carly: You are accusing me of hitting Sam.
Jason: No --
Carly: Yes, you are. And I'm standing here with you, my best friend. I'm sharing with you news that -- that makes me so happy. And I want you to be happy for me, and instead you're ruining it by bringing up Sam!
Jason: Why do you sound guiltier with every word you say?
Carly: You want me to be guilty?
Jason: No, I -- I'm -- I'm just saying I can see how it happened.
Carly: Ok, so either I just plain out hate Sam or I'm so selfish that I'm going to hit her, run her over, leave so I can get home to share my great news with Jax?
Jason: Not deliberately, but I know how you are, I know how you get. Things happen and they snowball into something that, you know, I can't --
Carly: And I know you -- what the hell's going on? Oh, let me guess -- Kate Howard was shot and Sonny's freaking out?
Jason: Yeah, he is.
Jason: And he knows that you and Jax were at the scene and Jax heard a shot.
Carly: So he sent you out to get information and take down whoever fired it? That's why you're here -- so you can talk to me and get some information to help you? But now we're talking about Sam. Why is that?
Lulu: Huh. Is it funny that we're here? We just started walking and talking and this is where we ended up.
Johnny: I think that sometimes our bodies take over when our minds are too confused to know what to do. That's what used to happen to me all the time when I was a kid. There'd be so much yelling and fighting in my house that I'd find myself just sitting at the piano. And I'd notice that all of a sudden the yelling stopped and I'd look over my shoulder, and I'd notice that my father was staring down smiling and -- well, I'd stop. It was a rarity that he was smiling those days and I'd want to soak it in because I didn't want to forget it, and then --
Lulu: What?
Johnny: Trevor would show up and take my father away and tell me to get away from the piano. That's a weird thing to remember, huh?
Claudia: When I left here, you were lucid. You were a cretin, but you were lucid. I leave and then come back. I see Trevor leave, and now you're suddenly less than human? What did -- what did he do to you, what did he say to you?
Anthony: You'd like something like that, wouldn't you, something to hold over me?
Claudia: I still have that pillow.
Anthony: Nice talk.
Claudia: You don't have any power over me anymore -- or Johnny or this family. You're broken and you're pathetic.
Anthony: Maria will straighten you out. You're not so old we can't punish you.
Claudia: Oh, so now you know who I am?
Anthony: Of course I know who you are, you're my daughter -- and you dress like a whore.
Claudia: You don't get to dictate what I wear anymore.
Anthony: I tried to keep you decent.
Claudia: What you did is you tried to keep me ugly and plain so that nobody would notice me, which is kind of funny considering --
Anthony: Go change. I don't want you going to school looking like that.
Claudia: Ok. Ok, daddy. Just for you.
Anthony: Oh, see? Now you want something.
Claudia: All I want is the same thing you want.
Anthony: And what's that again?
Claudia: Trevor Lansing's mounted head.
Trevor: We're clean on this one, and it doesn't sound like Johnny. Claudia is capable of doing anything, so find out where everybody was tonight. You can reach me here.
Jax: I really don't think you should be here.
Trevor: You heard me tell Sonny I'm in love with her.
Jax: What? Is that why you tried to destroy her when she chose Sonny over you?
Trevor: Do you seriously think that Sonny's not going to destroy her? Huh, you wait and see.
Sonny: Hey. I'm here if you can hear me. You don't have to talk. You can smile a little bit if you want.
Kate: Hmm.
Sonny: Hey -- if you can hear me, I just want you to know that -- thank you for going through all this trouble -- to prove what a fool I am.
Jason: Text-message killer attacked Sam that night, ran her into the road, ok? Whoever hit her may -- may have seen something for me to go on. This guy killed my sister and he tried to kill you, Carly.
Carly: You're not exactly lying, but you're not exactly telling the truth, either. Maybe you already know who hit Sam, and you're looking for other options. Let's say I did it. Would you cover for me?
Feb 21, 2008 09:36
Jason: You were in an accident. Which bumper -- passenger or driver?
Carly: Wrong answer. Why don't you go? You'd rather sit here and talk about Sam's accident than, you know, celebrate my wonderful news with me.
Jason: Ok, I already know.
Carly: You already know what, Jason?
Jason: Passenger side -- whatever you hit, Carly.
Carly: I didn't hit Sam! My god, I didn't hit her! I was driving down the road and it was raining and I was trying to call Jax to tell him about our baby. And I hit a pothole or something, I swerved, and I scraped the bumper, so I took the car to the shop to get it fixed. Now, can we stop? Can we drop this? If not, you should just go!
Jason: Fine. Does -- does Sonny know about --
Carly: No -- we haven't even told the boys.
Jason: I am happy for you.
Carly: Not as happy as I would've been if you would've told me about Jake.
Jason: Now, see, why -- why do you have to do that?
Carly: Because you know why.
Jason: Well, stop acting like you don't. I mean, stop acting like your children have never been in danger because of who Sonny is and they're not going to be in danger again.
Carly: Yeah, but the difference is I would not have them with me, loving them, and taking care of them just to keep them safe, Jason. I've watched you with Michael and Morgan, and now I get to watch you with their little brother or their little sister? I want to watch you with your child. I want pictures of you with him. I want memories of that. And Jake's going to want them, too. But they're not going to be there. And one day when he looks at his father, he's going to see a complete stranger when the truth comes out and you know what? You can bet it's going to happen, he's going to find out. And he's going to look at you and he's going to wonder what could've been -- and so will you.
Johnny: It's kind of funny that your father let this place go all to hell, huh?
Lulu: My father's very good at letting good things go to waste -- like he's afraid to be happy. Hmm.
Lulu: Where are you going?
Johnny: I remember last time we were here and you left me, I noticed the skylight and the way the moon was coming through.
Johnny: And that is exactly how I imagined you.
Lulu: Ok, I feel on the spot, like I need to do something.
Johnny: You don't need to do anything. You're like this little muse made of moonlight sent to inspire me.
Lulu: To light candles?
Johnny: Maybe. But all I want to do is this.
Spinelli's voice: [As Sam spade] The city shone like a sea of jewels behind her. Ah, but she -- she was the only hot piece of ice in the picture. A lot of mugs had already been played patsy for those pins of hers -- and I'd be no exception. Just another peeper low enough on cabbage to want to dry her crocodile tears. Something about her made me feel -- hinky. I figured we'd go to some hash house, put spoiled milk in her coffee, and I could watch her lips move. I'd make her say my name and pretend it was enough, all the while knowing that trying to get a dame like this to love you was just another trip for biscuits -- no matter how she tried to sweet-talk me.
Maxie: God, stop sneaking up on me, Spinelli.
Spinelli: Um -- uh -- your father asked me to -to watch you.
Maxie: I'm fine.
Spinelli: Um -- if I may be so bold, you don't seem fine at all -- which is puzzling to me because, for all intents and purposes, the case of the text-message killer is closed. You and your -- your friend, fair Samantha, are safe and generous Georgie's death will finally have some closure.
Maxie: But I have no Coop, and none of us have Georgie. None of this ended exactly the way I thought it was going to, that's all. I just -- I thought maybe a piece of me would feel -- good. But it didn't. And I know that I should feel safe, but I'm afraid.
Spinelli: Do you -- do you know of what?
Maxie: No. And I think that's what scares me the most.
Nikolas: I hate seeing you like this.
Sam: Yeah, well, accidents happen.
Nikolas: But this wasn't one. Look, I followed through on Elizabeth's suggestion. I got a list from the police on the parts of my car that were impounded after it was stolen and I checked the passenger-side bumper and it was fine. It wasn't me who hit you.
Sam: Good. I mean, then I will figure out who did this.
Nikolas: I want to help you. I think it's terrible that this happened to you and completely unfair. Now, I assume that Lucky's on it and he's helping?
Sam: Oh -- no, he wasn't. Lucky and I are taking a break.
Nikolas: Oh. I'm sorry.
Sam: I actually -- I came -- it's just more about Emily, I guess. Um -- well, it turns out that they think that the text-message killer may be Logan Hayes.
Nikolas: Well, Lulu -- is she --
Sam: Lulu apparently is the one who found all the incriminating evidence. I don't know much about it. You're going to have to ask Alexis, but -- I don't know. If it's true -- then maybe it will bring peace to Emily -- and you, too.
Ian: Uh-oh.
Sam: Uh-oh.
Ian: I can't have my star patient running off and ruining all my work every time I turn around.
Sam: That's me.
Ian: How are you progressing?
Nikolas: Slowly.
Ian: Good. I won't push.
Sam: Why does that sound very cryptic?
Ian: Sorry -- doctor/patient confidentiality.
Sam: Oh --
Ian: Shall we go?
Sam: Ok. Oh -- and I -- um -- I'll be back to see you. I just -- I don't know -- I hope this news about Logan helps in some way.
Nikolas: Thanks.
Nikolas: You're back. Uh -- Sam -- she -- Logan's -- she said something about Logan.
Scott: You shouldn't be in here, you should be out living a life -- a good one, a better one than I left you to flounder with. I didn't know you were out there. And if I did, you know, who knows -- maybe I would've goofed up your life anyways. I need you to wake up and make me understand why it looks the way it looks. And I want to tell you something -- I am going to help you no matter what.
Scott: He hasn't come around yet.
Alexis: I'm not here as the D.A., I'm here as a parent.
Scott: You mean one more parent of somebody my son tried to kill.
Alexis: No, as a parent who can look at their child and look past what they've done -- or what we may have done to put them on the path that got them into trouble in the first place. I know what it's like to have a kid that's in pain and want to go back and heal them but you can't. So forensics is in Logan's apartment right now and you have my word that there will be no formal statements, no charges pressed until their investigation is done and he's been able to explain himself. I hope it's not him.
[Scott sighs]
Singer: Here you are now fresh from your war back from the edge of time
Johnny: This isn't why I came here.
Lulu: I know.
Johnny: We've come so close so many times.
Lulu: And you stopped or I stopped.
Johnny: Is there anything to stop us now?
Singer: When you feel the world is crashing all around your feet come running headlong into my arms breathless I'll never judge you I can only love you come now, running headlong into my arms breathless lay down your guns too weak to run nothing can harm you here your precious heart broken and scarred somehow you made it through I only ask that you won't go again
Singers: When you feel the world is crashing all around your feet come running headlong into my arms breathless
Carly: I'm sorry, I just absolutely hate at you were robbed of this feeling that I have right now -- knowing that I created a life and I get to share that life. I hate that, Jason.
Jason: I can't go around feeling robbed.
Carly: How do you feel? What are you feeling?
Jason: Like I made a sacrifice -- a sacrifice for the good.
Carly: Good for who? The baby or Elizabeth?
Jason: I got to go back to work now.
Carly: Ok, before you go, you have to do me a favor.
Jason: Whew. What?
Carly: You have to.
Jason: Do you want me to take a picture?
Carly: Oh, you know what? I want the first picture of you, me, and the baby. Hold this.
Jason: Can you tell me about Kate's shooting?
Carly: Try to smile just this one time for me, please? Ok. Smile!
Jason: You know I'm not going to smile.
[Carly laughs]
[Camera beeps]
Carly: All right!
Jason: You going to tell me about Kate's shooting?
Carly: Let me check it first, let me check it first.
[Jason sighs]
Carly: You're so good!
Jason: Ok, Carly, Kate --
Carly: Ok -- yeah, sorry. I was at the Taylor building, and I got queasy and dizzy and I passed out. The next thing I know, Jax was waking me up, telling me that he had heard gunshots. He wanted to go check it out and see what was going on, but I was afraid. I asked him to take me home, instead he took me to General Hospital. Dr. Lee checked me out, said everything was fine. I came back home, end of story.
Jason: Ok. Well, I got to go keep looking.
Carly: You look tired and you look worried.
Carly: You're not going to share your problems with me, though?
Jason: No, you got your own baby to worry about.
Carly: Hmm. I do. And I know -- I'm not going to do anything careless or stupid to ruin it.
Carly: Hey, Max, come in.
Max: Is Michael home?
Carly: "Is Michael home?" You were supposed to pick him up.
Max: Well, I -- I waited for him and he never came out. When I went in to get him, they said Michael never showed up for practice today.
Sonny's voice: You don't come near a gun --
[Gunshot]
Sonny's voice: That's final. You swear to me? If I ever see you with your hands near a gun, you better turn and keep running.
Sonny: Hey. I'm right here, I'm right here.
Kate: Huh?
Sonny: Doctors don't want you to do anything or say -- or say too much. You're -- you're in General Hospital, ok, you're -- you're with me.
Sonny: Listen, I hate to even ask you this, but do you have any idea who did this to you?
Jason: No -- Milo, stop what you're doing. Go to the park and you call me immediately. Ok, Milo's headed over to the park to see if Michael's there.
Carly: Morgan said Michael never said a word about skipping practice.
Jason: And Milo said Michael hasn't been anywhere near the house since this afternoon. Quietly spread the word.
Max: Mrs. C, don't worry, he's probably over at a friend's house. He just, you know, probably forgot to call, ok?
Carly: What if he's not?
Jason: Well, then we're going to find him.
Carly: Jason --
Jason: Ok, listen --
Jason: The best thing you can do right now is just think of every place Michael may have gone and I'm going to check it out. Do not start freaking out -- not yet.
Carly: Hey.
Jax: What's going on?
Carly: Michael's missing.
Sonny: Hey, if you can't talk, just nod. I got to know -- I got to know who -- who did this to you, who shot you. Ok, listen --
Sonny: You don't have to tell me anything, I already know who did it. They're going to pay, each and every one of them. I need you to rest. I got a war to end -- no prisoners, no survivors.
Claudia: So you know what we want and you know how to get it?
Anthony: Trevor's head -- right up there on the wall like a moose so when I'm able to get out of this bed I can spit right in his eyes.
Claudia: So we're understood?
Anthony: As long as I get everything I want.
Claudia: Don't worry, daddy. You can trust me. Can I trust you?
Nikolas: Was it Logan? Was it Logan Hayes who killed you?
Patrick: I wish I had better news. Jason: Michael could be missing. Sonny: This is for Michael. Sam: Who are you?
Feb 23, 2008 05:53
Carly: Well?
Jax: I've been to every one of Michael's friends on the list. No one's seen him. I think we should call the police.
Carly: We can't. We can't. Jason's out looking for him. He said not to do anything until we've heard from him.
Jax: Well, hold on a second. Michael's our son, not Jason's. We get to make our own decisions about him.
Carly: No.
Sonny: Hey. You got to come back to me now, because you're -- I'm -- you're killing me here. You got to stay -- she's not -- she's not staying focused.
Leo: She is.
Sonny: I mean, sometimes she does, in and out, and --
Leo: Well, she's just staying focused on healing. She's smart. That's more than I expect from most patients in her position.
Sonny: She smiled earlier, just a little bit, you know?
Leo: Yeah? Well, good. Good. She has a deep connection to you, even in a semiconscious state. It's beautiful, man. Keep that up.
Sonny: I'm not going anywhere.
Leo: We just need to make some assessments. So we won't be long. You can see her in a bit.
Sonny: Um -- all right, all right.
Jason: How bad is she?
Sonny: Oh -- every-- everybody's going to be better off when I find out who the slob was and put him into the ground. What do you got?
Jason: Michael could be missing.
Johnny: Hey, sleepyhead.
Lulu: Huh. What -- what are you looking at?
Johnny: Nothing, just watching you sleep. But not in a creepy way. I'm just listening to the pattern of your breathing, thinking that this is the first time in forever I'm just happy to wake up.
Alexis: A penny for your thoughts, or are they too murderous?
Sam: Oh -- no, no. It was nothing like that at all. Even though it should be, considering the hell that you and I have been through, and Maxie. I mean, Georgie and Emily are dead, and Leticia. I just --
Alexis: If it was Logan, he's obviously a very disturbed man.
Sam: But is that him? I mean, really, can -- can you wrap your mind around Logan Hayes being the text message killer?
Alexis: We're not going to know anything until he wakes up. And only then will we know if this nightmare is over.
[Man groans]
Jax: You're actually saying that I can't call the police to search for our missing son?
Carly: I've been through this before. The police aren't going to do anything. He hasn't technically been missing 24 hours.
Jax: Oh. Right, right. Sure. That really wouldn't matter, anyway, would it? Because we're going to do what Jason wants, right? We're going to wait for Jason to exhaust all his mob-related contacts and check up all his mob-related reasons why Michael could be missing. And then we're just going to wait to see what Jason wants us to do -- until he gives us his command, isn't that right?
Carly: Stop. No, stop it! Jason practically raised Michael, ok? He took care of him before I did. He's going to do whatever it takes to find him, Jax.
Jax: Oh, meaning I won't? Meaning I'm not capable?
Carly: No. I never said that.
Jax: Meaning when our child is born, I'm allowed to change diapers and feed the baby and everything, but when something really serious happens, we'll just have to see what Jason says, right?
Carly: Stop it! You stop twisting my words!
Jax: Then stop giving me second-rate status in this marriage!
Carly: I'm not!
[Jax sighs]
Jax: You know what? That's what it -- that's what it feels like. I mean, Jason always comes first. It's "Jason this, Jason that." It's like "Jason's my best friend." I mean, how many times -- you know what? It wouldn't surprise me if you told Jason you wanted us to try to have a baby before you told me. God, I hate it when I'm right. You know, at least I got to father it, right?
Carly: You know what? Jason has been protecting me and my family for a long time, and you know this. He is my dearest friend.
Jax: Yes, yes, and I'm your husband!
Carly: Why can't you just trust him?
Jax: Oh, that's funny. I was going to ask you why you couldn't do the same for me!
Jax: Ugh.
Carly: This is great. This is great.
Jax: I'm -- I am -- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I don't --
Carly: I am standing here, Jax, and I am scared to death.
Jax: Hey, I don't -- I don't want to fight. Come here. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Sonny: The Zaccharas have hit with both barrels.
Jason: Sonny, there's no proof Michael being missing has anything to do with Kate or that the Zaccharas are responsible for either one.
Sonny: Just get me the proof.
Jason: Ok, Carly is a wreck, even more so because she --
Sonny: Because what, because she's married to Jax, who's probably on his way here with the cops?
Jason: No. Look, I told her not to do anything till I gave her the word.
Sonny: What we're going to do is we're going to wait to be notified by the Zaccharas as far as the -- what they want to do with the ransom. We bring in the cops right now, Michael pays. As far as -- you know, the other five families -- they know better not to touch this, but there's got to be something that ties all this together. Trevor claims he had nothing to do with the shooting, not that I would believe that sack of spit if he told me the sky was blue.
Jason: Anthony -- Anthony could have ordered this to -- to impress somebody, to prove he still has what it takes.
Sonny: Well, Johnny's proving a lot right now. You know what I'm talking about --
Jason: Yes, and I -- I had Spinelli dig into Claudia's past. There's not -- there's nothing there.
Sonny: Have him dig deeper, because she's the craziest of the bunch. If I had to pick one of them to do this to Kate, it would be that bitch.
Jason: Why?
Sonny: Bec-- let's just say she doesn't take rejection very well.
Trevor's voice: Claudia? Claudia?
Trevor: Claudia --
Claudia: I was just remembering how that nasty tone of command has always been in your voice.
Trevor: Did you do it?
Claudia: What? I've done a lot of things.
Trevor: Did you shoot Kate Howard?
Claudia: See, she's just one of those women who deserves to be shot.
Trevor: Answer the question.
Claudia: Calm down, Trevors. You don't want to give yourself a stroke? Talk about deserving --
Trevor: Enough of your games. Sonny Corinthos almost put a bullet in me outside of Kate's operating room. Did you, or did you not shoot Kate Howard?
Claudia: No.
Trevor: All right. I believe you.
Claudia: Speaking of games -- when were you planning on telling me that you're Sonny Corinthos' stepdaddy?
Ric: Thanks for taking my call, and getting here so quickly.
Elizabeth: Well, you said something about somebody needing medical attention?
Ric: Yes, they do. Come in. I didn't know who else I could call or trust. It's ok.
Elizabeth: What'd you do to her?
Elizabeth: Come with me. Sit down so I can take a look at you.
Ric: I didn't do this -- although with our history, um, it's painfully logical for you to make that leap.
Marianna: No, he didn't touch me. He helped me, maybe he even saved my life.
Elizabeth: Then why didn't you go to the hospital?
Ric: It's ok, we can trust her.
Elizabeth: I'm going to need some warm water and a clean cloth.
Elizabeth: This looks like it might need stitches, but I can't tell until I get it cleaned up. You really need to see a doctor.
Marianna: I can't.
Elizabeth: Why? Are you in trouble?
Marianna: I didn't do anything wrong, if that's what you mean.
Elizabeth: There's nothing on earth a woman could do to deserve this.
[Elizabeth sighs]
Elizabeth: You don't have to explain. Let me just get this cleaned up.
Marianna: You're very kind. You must be Elizabeth.
Johnny: The coffee smells like coffee. I can't say the same for these rolls. You know, there's nothing around here but this seedy little food shack, which is crazy because you've got the marina and the business district within 10 blocks of any direction. Somebody's missing out on a gold mine.
Lulu: That's very business-minded of you.
Johnny: Is that a bad thing?
Lulu: No, it's just not the Johnny that hangs out on rooftops and takes the curves at the lookout point like he's invincible.
Johnny: My possibilities have always been limited living behind the confines of the Zacchara compound. It was always funneled by my father's craziness, my life was filtered by Trevor, and I always felt that I should be alone or that I was alone because it was always too dangerous to involve anybody else, you know?
Lulu: So, what changed?
Johnny: Being free, possibility of you.
Johnny: What's wrong?
Lulu: Nothing. It's just -- you know, us being here and we're --
Lulu: Feeling so good, well, you know, because --
Johnny: Right -- it's all riding on the back of Logan's life.
Patrick: I wish I had better news. We can't force him into consciousness. The longer he stays in this state, the more likely he is to slip into a coma which really has no time limit.
Mac: I need some answers.
Scott: Yeah, well, so do I.
Patrick: You're not going to get any, not right now. I'll keep you updated.
Scott: I should've confronted him when I brought him in the hospital for his ribs.
Mac: You couldn't have known.
Scott: Ah, he told me he was in bar fight. He had no money, so I paid his hospital bill, then I find out that Sam kicked her attacker in the ribs before her hit-and-run. I wanted to believe his story and I still do, Mac. Maybe he was just collecting this stuff from the killer, you know, so that he could frame Johnny and make time with Lulu -- and that the killer is still out there.
Mac: We're going to find out sooner or later. Let's just hope it doesn't take another dead body to prove it.
Alexis: And I bought you this phone. It's on my calling plan. It's a home, office, and entertainment system on it. You can do whatever you want. You can D.V.D., play music, play games.
Sam: Hey --
Alexis: You can mix drinks.
Sam: Whoa, whoa, whoa -- wait. Can you make phone calls?
Alexis: I have no idea.
Sam: Oh, great.
Alexis: But I figured it'll take you some time figuring out whether you can or not and it'll help you pass the time.
Sam: Huh, thank you. Oh, you know what? I actually talked Dr. Devlin into sending me home today. I just -- I really want to go home.
Lucky: I don't think you should do that.
Sam: Why -- do you have a better idea?
Lucky: We need to talk about this.
Alexis: He is trying.
Sam: No, he is guilty. And you know, there was a time when I would've probably used that to hold on to him, but no, not now.
Alexis: Why don't you come home with me? It'll make Kristina feel better.
Sam: I don't know. I don't want to scare her, I'm using a cane, and --
Alexis: Ok, why don't you come home -- you know, make me feel better?
Sam: I would say thank you, and I'm saying it -- "thank you." But, you know, I think I am perfectly capable of being home alone right now. Being careful... it's very important to me.
Ric: We pretty much drove all night. There was no place that we could stop that wouldn't involve questions and consequences that Marianna can't afford. Even if they were able to lock up the guy who brought her from Venezuela under false pretenses, they'd still probably hold her somewhere and then ship her out of the country. All of her choices would be gone -- again.
Elizabeth: It's disgusting that any man would hold a woman against her will.
Marianna: Yeah.
Ric: Yeah, look, I'm going to -- um -- I'm going to call in some favors. You know, immigration law is a whole -- whole new ballgame since 9/11. A lot of innocent people are getting hurt. You know, Marianna's very resourceful and brave. She'd capture the moths in the coffee shop and set them free rather than kill them. You know, that's not exactly the makings of a terrorist.
Elizabeth: This is just an analgesic, but it'll help with the pain, but you really need to lie down and rest.
Ric: And don't worry about Randy, ok?
Marianna: You don't know him.
Ric: He doesn't know me, right? Look, there's a -- there's a guestroom back there, it's quiet, nobody will bother you. You can take a bath if you want to -- there's lavender soap in the cabinet.
Marianna: Thank you so much.
Elizabeth: You're welcome.
Elizabeth: Well, for all you know about her, she doesn't really know you at all, does she?
Jerry: Oh, Alexis? Hello.
Alexis: Hi.
Jerry: How are you holding up?
Alexis: I'm still standing, thank you.
Jerry: I thought you could use some moral support with Kristina.
Alexis: Well, I was just going to pick her up from Dr. Winters and then we're going home.
Jerry: Oh, is there any improvement?
Alexis: No.
Jerry: No? I'm sorry. I heard they caught the text message killer -- Logan Hayes?
Alexis: I know. If it's him, I don't understand why she would react so violently to him and then just shut down.
Jerry: Hmm. Is Ric home yet?
Alexis: No. Why would he be?
Jerry: Oh. Oh, I have to take that. I'll meet you there when you're done, ok?
Alexis: Got another body to bury?
[Jerry and Alexis chuckle]
Jerry: Talk to me. Are you sure? Do you have any idea how many people are going to be upset by this news?
Carly: Wow. That is a cool picture. Why don't you go upstairs and color, and you can get cleaned up a little bit, ok?
Morgan: Where's Michael?
Jax: Michael's off on an adventure. I'm sure he can't wait to tell you about it when he gets back.
Carly: Thank you.
Jax: You know, Michael's probably just off on a lark. He's been moody, we've been strict. I ran away once when I was 9.
Carly: That supposed to make me feel better?
Jax: Well, I was back by supper.
Carly: Oh. If this hadn't happened before, you know, I'd --
Jax: Oh, you -- oh. You mean with A.J. and Faith Rosco?
Jax: That's why you're so worried.
Jax: That's why Jason's being extra careful. Still, I -- I'd like to explore the less drastic reason why he's missing. Just a boy who threw some food into his backpack and wanted some time on his own. Maybe he got on a -- on a bus or -- or a boat or maybe he took a train somewhere. You going to be ok for a little while?
Carly: I'll call my mom.
Jax: You know what? You can tell her the good news.
Carly: Now is not the time. You know, it's just not.
Jax: You told Jason, didn't you?
Carly: Yes, I did, yeah.
Jax: Good -- give him extra motivation to find our boy.
Carly: Oh, please find him.
Sonny: Where'd you find it?
Jason: One of our guys found it off near pier 47.
Sonny: Pier 47? That's about two blocks down across from the Taylor building where we found Kate.
Jason: Right.
Sonny: So, Michael's disappearance and Kate's shooting are connected.
Feb 23, 2008 05:58
Lucky: I thought we were going to talk.
Sam: I'm not really sure what we have to talk about.
Lucky: I can think of a lot of things.
Sam: Yeah, but I bet none of them are based on what we had or -- or what we could've been together. Wait, let me guess -- I bet you're here to ask me to come to your place and -- and stay there until I'm done walking on three legs, huh?
Lucky: Yeah, that's part of it.
Sam: And not because you can't live without me, but because you feel completely responsible for the situation.
Lucky: That's part of it, too.
Sam: Yeah, well, what happened to the love part of it, Lucky? Yeah, that's pretty much where I thought it was, too.
Lucky: Ok, I feel guilty for what happened to you.
Sam: Ok.
Lucky: I admit it. So what?
Sam: "So what?" So I don't need your pity. What do you want?
Lucky: I don't know.
Sam: Oh, boy, you don't know? Well, that's pretty vague territory for two people to move in together, don't you think? Listen, if you're looking for absolution, I suggest that you go to the confessional at the queen of angels because I can't give it to you, and you want to know why? Because I don't think you need forgiveness. I am the one who -- who did all of those awful things to Elizabeth and Jake, not you, and I hoped that you would never find out. Now you know it all. It's fine, I can live with that.
Lucky: And you're hurt?
Sam: Yes, I am hurt. What do you think? Yes, inside and out.
[Sam sighs]
Sam: I don't know. Who knows, you know? I -- I don't have to be back to work for a little bit, so maybe I'll take a trip and I'll go on a cruise and count the islands in Greece or something.
Lucky: What if you need something?
Sam: Well, you know, I have a new phone, and it does everything but cook dinner, so I think I'll be fine.
Lucky: Ok, fine, what if you -- what if you need something --
Sam: You will be the last person that I call -- until I know that you're going to call back for the right reasons.
Johnny: I only want to be in this if you're in it 100%.
Lulu: It's just hard to explain. I can't ignore what I did.
Johnny: You were protecting yourself.
Lulu: And I was involved with him, Johnny. On and off, but I was involved with a potential serial killer. What does that say about me?
Johnny: It says that you have a trusting heart.
Johnny: It does, and that he was damn good at reeling you in. All of the psychotic madness aside, there was a certain brilliance to him, or else he wouldn't have gotten away with what he did for so long.
Lulu: Yeah, maybe.
Johnny: "Maybe"? No, eventually you would've done something or said something to make him turn on you, like Georgie or Emily. I couldn't stand by and watch that happen.
Lulu: What do you mean?
Johnny: I was ready to let you make your choice -- me or Logan. Ok, I was a coward. I didn't want to win you over and then see you hurt.
Lulu: You would never hurt me.
Johnny: No, not me, but my life, my life as it used to be. But I don't have to be bound by that anymore, I don't have to be that last hope of the Zacchara empire or Trevor's puppet. Will you go out to dinner with me?
Johnny: I want you to go on a date with me. I don't care where we go, it could be boring as hell.
Lulu: What? What are you talking about?
Johnny: I'm talking about being like normal people our age, who want to go out and have a good time. Will you meet me back here in a few hours?
Lulu: Ok, yeah, sure, sure. Ok.
Johnny: Ok, good. I have to go home and prove something to somebody.
Lulu: Who?
Johnny: A mousy little girl with red shoes who thinks that love kills. See you later.
Claudia: So talk to me, Trevors, tell me. There's got to be more to this story than just you knocking up Sonny Corinthos' mother and producing a bastard son.
Trevor: None of your business.
Claudia: You know, every single moment of my private life until the minute I was carted out of here was your business -- Johnny's too, and his father's and his mother's. And look us now -- we're all scattered, we're all damaged. And you're in control and you have all the power? That's just one of the things I intend to change while I'm here.
Trevor: Yeah? All of a sudden you're going to step up and take responsibility? Where's everybody been all these years? Just how long do you think it's going to take you?
Claudia: Until I'm done.
Trevor: Hmm.
Claudia: Let me rephrase that -- until you're finished.
Trevor: Don't be a fool, Claudia. You are never going to take me down.
Claudia: I'm pretty confident.
Trevor: Overconfident.
Claudia: Hmm. It must be a really cozy thanksgiving around here, though, huh? 0Sonny Corinthos, the local kingpin, his estranged brother, the D.A., and the D.A.'s estranged father acting as incumbent head of the Zacchara underworld?
Trevor: No, no, no, no, no, Claudia, I'm not acting anymore, I am the head of the Zacchara underworld. I got all the connections. I got the loyalty and the experience.
Claudia: Hmm -- just not enough to get a foothold in port Charles.
Trevor: It will come -- with the Alcazar property.
Claudia: Uh-huh. Who's overconfident now?
Trevor: Claudia -- oh, darling, you remember telling me that you were carted off once? What makes you think that that can't happen again?
Ric: Well, Marianna knows all about my ugly past with my brother, my father, this town and pretty much everybody in it. But she didn't care. All that mattered to her was who I was when we met.
Elizabeth: "Met"?
Ric: Yeah, I went to Martha's Vineyard. I -- uh -- I wanted to stir up some old ghosts and see if they looked any differently to me. You know, I -- I can't change what I've done, Elizabeth, only where I go from here.
Elizabeth: Which is?
Ric: Hmm. Well, just before I left town, Skye gave me Alcazar's waterfront property. Hmm -- it's kind of like giving the devil a stick of dynamite, isn't it?
Elizabeth: Maybe worse.
Ric: Oh. So, that's the second time that you've not given me the benefit of the doubt today.
Elizabeth: Well, can you blame me?
Ric: No. How's Jason?
Elizabeth: What does that matter?
Ric: Well, you were in love with him, right? Probably still in love with him. I was more than half convinced that Jake was his child.
Elizabeth: Where are you going with this?
Ric: If Jason were to leave Sonny tomorrow and run off with you, have this big, beautiful, peaceful life, would you want everybody else to judge him for what he'd done?
Elizabeth: That's different.
Ric: No, it's not. It's only different in the eyes of the person who believes in him and loves him. Only in the eyes of the person who loves them and hopes that they can change, and hopes that the change can stick. I used to see that look in your eyes -- of love, trust.
Elizabeth: But you killed it.
Ric: For me.
Elizabeth: Is that what Marianna is -- a second chance at salvation for you?
Ric: No. No, that has to come from me.
Elizabeth: It's kind of funny you met her in a coffee shop --
Ric: Hmm.
Elizabeth: Just like you met me.
Ric: Yep.
Elizabeth: I guess you want history to repeat itself.
Ric: No. All I want from Marianna is to be treated with kindness and respect. I'm helping her, Elizabeth, because I can, not because I want anything from her in return.
Elizabeth: That would be a first.
Ric: Yeah, it would.
Sonny: Stay focused on Michael.
Jason: Wait, wait, wait -- what are you going to do?
Sonny: I got to do what I've got to do, that's what I got to do.
Jason: I know that you're upset. You need to be careful before you make things worse, Sonny.
Sonny: Worse -- worse? What do you mean, "worse"? My son's missing. Kate almost died. What do you want me to do?
Jason: Just -- just let me find the proof.
Sonny: Ok, go ahead, find the proof. Find the proof that the Zaccharas did not do this. And with any luck, you'll find the proof before we find body parts. We're going to find legs in the ocean, we're going to find --
Jason: Sonny -- Sonny, let -- let me handle this. You stay with Kate. She needs you.
Sonny: Don't tell me -- don't tell me what Kate needs. I know what she needs, and I know what I need. Go do your job.
Jerry: We need to find a quiet place to have a chat.
Jason: Well, I don't have time right now.
Jerry: Well, make time. It's about Lorenzo Alcazar.
Ric: I thought you were upstairs.
Marianna: I was restless.
Ric: Well, here. I made you some hot milk with a little drop of vanilla in it. You said that you liked that when you were a kid, right?
Marianna: Thank you. You must be a very good lawyer -- you remember everything a person says.
Ric: Well, no information is useless -- especially when you can use it to help somebody feel better.
Marianna: Hmm.
Ric: Not exactly what I'm used to doing.
Marianna: Well, I remember things, too, you know? Elizabeth -- she's the one chance you said you had at love?
Ric: Mm-hmm.
Marianna: And you still love her?
Ric: I will always have a fondness in my heart for Elizabeth. That's all.
Marianna: She doesn't trust you.
Ric: Yeah. Well, I've given her a lot of reasons not to. You know when you love somebody that much and they betray you, it's almost impossible to go back. Yeah, I can see that look in your eye -- that's a completely foreign concept to you.
Marianna: Oh, no, I've -- I've done my share of betrayals to survive.
Ric: Yeah, you know what? We all have. Just the ones that we do to the people that only want to love us -- those become the big black marks against us.
Marianna: I -- I got to get dressed. I'm not used to, like, being in my robe all day.
Ric: Oh, well, you know, those close -- they had blood on them, so I -- I took the sizes off the labels and I sent out for some new things.
Marianna: You can't keep doing this.
Ric: No, no, no. Until you can come up with a legitimate, logical reason not to, that's exactly what I'm going to do. See? I knew you couldn't. I can't, either, so I'm going to go take a shower. Your things will be here. I hope you like the color.
Marianna: Anything will be fine.
Ric: No, just anything wouldn't be good enough for you.
Jax: Been to every train station, bus station -- even went to the docks and the airport -- no sign of him.
Carly: Oh, great.
Jax: You know, he could hiding from me.
Carly: You really think he ran away?
Jax: I don't know. Just -- it doesn't make any sense that one of Sonny's enemies snatched him up and not Morgan, ok, and that nobody has contacted Sonny or Jason by now.
Carly: He was really angry at for being in his room. What was he hiding, Jax? What did he take with him?
Jax: Ok, you're working yourself up.
Carly: No, I'm not! I am just trying to find a clue so we can figure out where he is, ok? I mean, I -- I can remember him walking out the door and he would barely look at me. He just waved, and I didn't get a chance to tell him I loved him. Every child should know that their parents love them no matter what they do!
Jax: Michael knows that you love him.
Jax: Yes, of course he does.
Carly: Then why would he worry us like this? If he were ok, why wouldn't he call?
Jax: You know, Carly, you have the best instincts in the world. What are they -- what are they telling you? Hmm?
Carly: They're telling me that he is cold and he is scared and he wants to come home.
Man: Drop anchor.
Second Man: I hate these small, crappy towns -- always only one bar open.
First Man: Yeah -- and both women inside run the other way when you walk in.
Second Man: Funny. Come on, give me a hand.
Jerry: I got word from some of my overseas contacts. It appears that when Carly and I went to the great lengths that we did in Caracas to relieve you of the murder charges against Lorenzo Alcazar by proving that he was still alive, we did a better job than we thought.
Jason: What are you talking about?
Jerry: Well, it appears that Lorenzo Alcazar has been making withdrawals from several bank accounts in Venezuela for the past few months.
[ Alarm clock beeping ]
Marianna: Oh -- oh.
Trevor: You work fast, don't you? But apparently you have forgotten just exactly who you're working for.
Ric: Is there a problem here?
Jax: You haven't touched any of the food I brought you.
Carly: Do you think that you can sneak health food to me just because I'm upset?
Jax: No, just because you're pregnant. You have to eat.
Carly: Hello? Hello?
Alexis: Hey. He it's me. Sonny had to leave.
Kate: Olivia -- I'm so glad you're ok.
[Footsteps]
Johnny: Claudia, is that you?
Sonny: No, it's me -- and this is for Kate.
Patrick: I'm sorry, there's nothing else we can do -- your son has slipped into a coma.
Sam: Get off --
[Sam coughs]
Sam: Get off me!
[Man yells]
Sam: Who are you?
>> On the next "general hospital" --
Sonny: The next one's for Michael, and this time I won't miss. Carly: Michael, honey, is that you? Man: Hey, you -- Sam: You're dead. Diego: And here I am. For you, it's the beginning of the end. You're going to die, Sam!
Feb 25, 2008 10:58
Nikolas: Now, I asked you if it was Logan who did it. You never answered me.
Emily: I wasn't sure.
Nikolas: Are you now?
Emily: Yes.
Nikolas: Was it him?
Emily: No. Nikolas, Logan isn't the man who hurt me.
Nikolas: Well, then who was it?
Sam: You're dead. Diego Alcazar is dead.
Diego: You should know. You fired the shot that killed me.
Sam: Then how --
Diego: How am I standing here? Well, let's just say a funny thing happened to me on the way to the morgue.
Trevor: Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't know you had company.
Ric: This is Marianna, from Martha's vineyard.
Trevor: Yeah.
Ric: The coffee shop, remember?
Trevor: The waitress. Aren't you a long way from home?
Marianna: Um -- I --
Ric: How did you -- how did you know that I was home? Had your people keeping tabs on me?
Carly: Is somebody there? Michael, honey, is that you?
[Michael sniffles]
Alexis: It's me, Alexis. There you are. Hi. You just called me Olivia. Who's Olivia?
Sonny: The next one's for Michael. And this time, I won't miss.
Claudia: Neither will I.
Carly: Michael, honey, you just tell me if you're ok.
Michael: I'm -- I'm sorry.
Carly: It's ok.
Michael: No -- no, it -- it's not. It's my fault.
Carly: No, it's not, honey. You didn't do anything wrong, ok? You just tell us where you are.
Man: Hey, you --
Carly: Michael, is someone there?
Man: Come back here!
Second Man: Oh, let him go. He's just a kid.
Claudia: Drop the gun.
Sonny: Not unless I drop your brother first. I go, he goes.
Johnny: What the hell's going on?
Sonny: You want to play dumb, you're going to die dumb.
Claudia: Somebody shot his little bed bunny, Kate Howard.
Sonny: You keep that up, you can use whatever blows out of your brother's brains to redecorate the wall.
Claudia: You want to take me --
Johnny: Shut up, Claudia! And you, you really think I did this? You think I shot an innocent woman? And for what? To prove I'm a big man? To put you in your place? If you are that dense, maybe Claudia should put you out of your misery.
Sonny: I want my son. Somebody took my son.
Johnny: Which one?
Sonny: Michael. Where is he?
Claudia: No, we don't know anything about that.
Sonny: That's not the answer I want! It's not going to keep baby boy here alive!
Johnny: You don't call me "boy."
Sonny: I call them the way I see them!
Johnny: Nobody here has your son. I don't play that way.
Sonny: Ok, you may not. What about Trevor? What about your father? What about your sister?
Claudia: Yeah, I play games.
Johnny: Stop. And lose the gun.
Claudia: No! What, are you crazy?
Johnny: Yeah, I am. Lose it!
Claudia: No. Sonny here's got two choices. He can either hold hands with his baby doll from the next hospital bed, or he can slip back into mine.
Kate: Alexis --
Alexis: Hey, there, that's better. You must know somebody named Olivia.
Kate: Olivia --
Jason: Where's Sonny?
Alexis: He just went away on business, and he had that crazy look in his eye, so I don't think he was talking about the market price of decaffeinated. Don't forget to tell him that Kate just woke up.
Nikolas: The other day, when I made you go back to at night, you had to have catch a glimpse of him, or -- or something. I mean, I saw you -- I saw you gasp. You looked surprised. You --
Emily: I -- I --
Nikolas: You just disappeared. Why?
Emily: Because I tried to stay in the moment. But I couldn't. Nikolas, it was just too awful.
Lulu: Nikolas, I've done something terrible.
Nikolas: No, no, no --
[Lulu sobs]
Diego: There I was, lying in my father's arms. He lost so much -- his brother, Luis, his niece, Sage. Then me. He told me how he screamed and swore vengeance and held me to his chest. But as he was holding me, he felt a pulse. He acted quickly, brilliantly, and -- and lovingly, as on my father could. He told the police that he'd take care of his son's body. And he did. See -- if you look back at the papers, you'll see that a famous surgeon from Mercy Hospital vanished that day without a trace. My father made him help me, made him keep me from falling off the brink. He put us on a jet to South America. That surgeon saved my life. And my father arranged for his entire family to move there and live like royalty in exchange for preserving his son's life. But for you, and all the people who destroyed my family, it was the beginning of the end.
Trevor: Believe it or not, I'm watching after you, Richard.
Ric: Oh, yeah, especially since Skye gave me Alcazar's waterfront.
Trevor: Well, did you sign the deed to that property yet?
Ric: Oh, and here I thought you just wanted to welcome me home.
Trevor: Oh, welcome home, my son.
Ric: Hmm. Ok, you want to talk about the piers, we'll talk about the piers. First, I need to dry myself off and get changed, ok? You can either wait outside or keep Marianna company.
Trevor: Hold on a minute -- come here, Richard. Just between you and me, I know you used to collect stones from the beach and lug them up to the house every summer. You're not upping your taste in souvenirs, are you?
Ric: Ok, that's what I thought. Why don't you just wait outside, all right?
Trevor: Ah, Richie!
Marianna: You know what? It's all right, it's all right. I don't want to cause any trouble between you and your father.
Ric: No, trouble's already caused. I won't be long.
Trevor: Oh. Don't you work fast. Look at you. Now, here I thought that we had a deal together, hmm? But I see that you're working -- you're working on something on the side for yourself. I don't care how long or how sweetly you sleep with my son -- do it as much as you like, god bless, as long as you know who you're doing it for. Has Richard signed the deed to that property yet? Huh?
Marianna: I don't know.
Trevor: Well, maybe it's time for you to go get it, dig it out, give it to me, and we're going to peruse it all together, all right?
Spinelli: And how is your mood today?
Maxie: Well, I should feel good because the twisted perv who murdered my sister and killed Coop is laid out in a hospital bed with his head bashed in.
Spinelli: Graphic, if a bit overstated.
Maxie: I can't wait till he wakes up and has to face the music. I want to be front row in that courtroom when Logan's found guilty. I knew all along he was a creep.
Spinelli: Ok, would "all along" refer to a starting point somewhere in time before or after you shared physical enjoyment and proximity in the crabby commando's boudoir?
Maxie: That was revenge sex against Lulu and it totally doesn't count, perv or not.
Spinelli: Ok. You know, you have a most unusual method of characterizing your --
Maxie: My mistakes? Oh.
Spinelli: A verbally safe choice, yes. And now here we are with no more reason for our physical proximity, investigatory as it simply was.
Maxie: Huh -- amen.
Spinelli: So then -- I'm sorry -- why are you who once thought me lower than the lowest proverbial cyber-spec still sitting at my table?
Diego: I remember the last time I had contact with my father. We didn't even get to hear each other's voices. He was about to leave Port Charles to come to the family compound with my new little sister. He sent me a text message -- huh. It said "I'm coming for you." And I heard he was dead -- murdered by Jason Morgan, ordered by Sonny Corinthos but murdered by Jason Morgan. And all of a sudden, I was alone. I lost everything. See, Sonny and Jason -- death means nothing to them. You know, they have no fear of it, they have no idea what it feels like to be alone. They have no idea what it feels like to suffer like I was suffering! I was supposed to start with Carly -- you know, the whore that trapped my father into marriage and betrayed him. Yeah, she was going to die first. She was supposed to die in her home -- but, someone saw me.
Sam: Leticia.
Diego: Hmm. I couldn't let her go. Hey, I realized then that it was no fun to just sneak up and end someone's life. They had to know they were going to die.
Sam: Text messages.
Diego: I remember my father's last written words -- "I'm coming for you." It seemed only fitting that you would know when I was coming for you. And here I am.
Nikolas: Shh, come on, come on. Tell me what happened.
Lulu: Logan -- I thought that he was the killer.
Nikolas: But he's -- he's not?
Lulu: Well, we don't know. He didn't confess to anything, and Maxie and Spinelli had all this circumstantial evidence against him and I went over to his place to prove them wrong and I found all this stuff that the killer would've used against his victims and he was trying to explain, and then Johnny came to the door and he grabbed me and -- and I panicked and I hit him in the head with a wrench and now he's in a coma! And who knows when or if he's going to wake up. And I'll never know what I did -- just like my mother. Just like my mother.
Johnny: You two slept together?
Claudia: Yeah, I met Sonny here my first night in town. I was trolling around, restless, looking for a little local color. He was nursing a broken heart and found someone who could nurse it a whole lot better -- isn't that right, Sonny boy?
Sonny: The only wounds you're going to be nursing here are the holes in your brother's head.
Johnny: You think I'm afraid to die? Huh -- I lean over roof ledges to enjoy the view, I drive faster every time I get in the car. You kill me, Claudia kills you, and my father and Trevor wage an all-out war. Jason or no Jason, nobody you know is going to be safe and they'll have the excuse they've been waiting for this whole time -- and all that'll be left of you is your pathetic legacy of violence and massacre. Do you know anything about Michael?
Claudia: Why are you --
Johnny: Do you know anything or not?
Johnny: Then shoot Trevor, or go nail my sister on the living room rug. Either way, I got someplace to be.
Claudia: Looks like it's just you and me now. What do you want to do about that?
Marianna: I don't know where the papers are.
Trevor: Oh, you don't know where the papers are? And you don't know if he signed them or not? Oh, don't play dumb with me because that's really stupid. You think you got problems with that nitwit of a cook back on the vineyard who's slapping you around? I'm going to tell you what problems really are. You got a problem if I call naturalization and immigration and inform them of your status in here, in the land of the free. Because they're going to take your butt and kick it so fast and so hard back to wherever the hell it is that you came from, unless you start living up to the agreement you had with me.
Marianna: I don't care. I don't care what you do to me, just leave Richard alone.
Trevor: Don't tell me you're falling for my son? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. Oh.
Sonny: Looks like your half brother is not as protective of you as you are of him.
Claudia: Abandonment issues. I hear you have similar problems with your half brother.
Sonny: You know about him?
Claudia: I'm learning. Hmm -- very interesting family I slept my way into.
Sonny: It was one-night stand. That's all it was, that's all it's ever going to be.
Claudia: How many nights do you think I'll get out of your brother, hmm? Is he cute?
Sonny: Ric Lansing is a slimeball just like his father.
Claudia: So you're the hot-and-bothered one in the family? Mm-hmm, I get that. Me, too. You light the right fuse, you never know when I'm going to go off, and for how long or how many times -- just like in the hotel room. Good times.
Sonny: Yeah, I never had any complaints.
Claudia: I came to your office in good faith.
Sonny: Yeah, and you were wearing that underwear that was very, very nice.
Claudia: You threw me out in front of all those people.
Claudia: All that heat --
Claudia: You just let it escape? I mean, you're not very energy efficient, are you?
Sonny: Oh, yeah, I got a lot of energy.
Claudia: You do, huh?
Sonny: Yeah, yeah.
Claudia: You want to spare some on me right now? Only a fool would turn me down twice -- a dead fool. You're not a fool, are you, Sonny? Hmm? I'll do something with my piece if you do something with yours.
Leo: Well, you're coming along. That means you're allowed the extra energy to smile and say "thank you for saving my life," but that's --
[Kate chuckles]
Kate: Thank you for saving my life.
Leo: I can't take all the credit. If it wasn't for Sonny, you'd be lying in that alley for quite sometime, and I wouldn't be getting the praise I so deserve. So don't overdo it, ok?
Kate: Ok.
Alexis: Thank you for saving her life.
Leo: Absolutely.
[Alexis laughs]
Alexis: So Sonny's going to be very disappointed that he wasn't here when you woke up. He did not leave your side, not once.
Kate: Hmm. I could feel him holding my hand -- like a lifeline.
Alexis: You had a pretty firm grip on mine, too, and you kept calling me "Olivia." Who the heck is Olivia?
Nikolas: I know you have this fear of winding up like our mother, but --
Nikolas: Listen to me, it's just -- it's not going to happen, ok?
Lulu: It doesn't mean that it doesn't still scare me. Everybody says that I am so much like her. What if I'm exactly like her?
Nikolas: What is it that you're really worried about here?
Lulu: What if the worst is true, and -- and Logan isn't the killer? What if he was telling me the truth all along and he's really innocent?
Sam: I would get out of here while you still can if I were you. My boyfriend is a cop and he is coming here.
Diego: Oh, Lucky Spencer? No, he's not coming. You sent him away, remember? Not only that, you told him that he'd be the last person you'd call if you needed help. I have to say I agree with you. I mean, he didn't come to the docks that night when you begged him for help, and he didn't believe you that I was there. But if it makes you feel any better, he'll believe it now, and he'll be so, so sorry -- I'll bet he even cries through the whole funeral. Although, he would've felt a lot better if you kissed him goodbye, because that was goodbye.
Sam: No! No!
Diego: No, come here! Come here! Where you going? Time to die!
Feb 25, 2008 11:01
Diego: Come on! Come on!
[Sam gags]
Sam: Get off! Oh!
[Sam pants]
Sam: Oh -- god, god --
Sam: Ow!
[Diego yells]
Diego: You just made it harder on yourself.
Sam: What are you going to do?
Diego: I'm going to make sure you end up just like my father.
Nikolas: Look, you're -- you're jumping to a lot of conclusions here and skipping logic along the way. Are -- are you questioning what happened to Logan or his guilt?
Lulu: He's in a coma.
Nikolas: I know. And when you hit him, you were afraid for your life --
Lulu: Just like mom.
Nikolas: Just like mom and Rick Webber. Listen, stop operating from guilt, please? It -- it -- listen, it doesn't help anything and it doesn't change anything. The second that you hit him, did you think he could hurt you?
Lulu: I panicked.
Nikolas: Yes or no?
Lulu: Yes.
Nikolas: Yes. See? So at -- so at worst, you made a terrible mistake. But you said -- you said that when Johnny knocked on the door, Logan grabbed you and said that he was going to take you somewhere and make you believe him or whatever.
Lulu: Yes, but --
Nikolas: But what? If Logan were innocent, why didn't he just let Johnny in?
Lulu: Because he was probably afraid of what Johnny would do to him, or the police, or if I didn't believe him or if I left with Johnny.
Nikolas: So -- so he panicked and acted out of fear, the same as you. Lulu, if he's innocent, you know, he's just as responsible for what happened you are. And we're not going to know anything anyway until he wakes up.
Nikolas: You know you put yourself in between two pretty dangerous men, you know that?
Lulu: I was confused, I didn't know who I wanted to be with.
Nikolas: Well, I vote for neither one.
Lulu: Hmm. Why can't life just be simple? Why can't love be simple?
Nikolas: Hmm. Because love comes and goes when it wants. And what we're left with is what we're meant to carry, I suppose. Look, if it were easy, it wouldn't mean much to have it -- or lose it.
Lulu: I'm sorry about Emily.
Nikolas: Yeah, she's still with me. It's not the same, of course, but it's something.
Lulu: You know, you don't have to answer me, but why haven't you had the surgery?
Nikolas: Because of my fears.
Lulu: Of dying?
Nikolas: No. I'm afraid that I'll open my eyes and never see her smile or hear her laugh or feel her next to me ever again.
Lulu: That won't happen.
Nikolas: Our love was really strong, you know?
Emily: It is so strong.
Lulu: Well, love comes and goes when it wants, and --
Lulu: What we're left with is what we're meant to carry. I'm sure that you will find a way to have Emily in your life forever.
Maxie: "Your table"? So this is your table now? I'm invading your space, breathing your air?
Spinelli: That was succinct.
Maxie: No, it was garbage. This is public property. You -- you have your own personal space, I have mine. We have our own air to breathe. I'm going to sit here if I feel like it.
Spinelli: But that's what confuses The Jackal. Why -- why do you want to?
Maxie: Because you believed me and helped me when you didn't want to. You helped me prove Coop was innocent. And even though you were too dense to see that Georgie was in love with you, you cared about her enough to make sure her killer was punished.
Spinelli: The wounded blond one is lonely.
Maxie: No. The wounded blond one just doesn't want to be wounded anymore.
Spinelli: Well, what would heal her?
Maxie: Mark your calendar, because you're going to sit next to me at Logan's trial when he's sentenced to life in prison.
Spinelli: Ok, look, although vengeance is best served cold, sometimes it doesn't serve anything else.
Maxie: You can't just speak English, can you?
Spinelli: Ok, look, my words have English derivation, although some of them have Latin roots.
Maxie: Stop.
Spinelli: We share something, I think, you and I. Um -- we are often grossly and most unfairly misunderstood.
Singer: They lost the garden looked out in the northern sky
Spinelli: Ugh!
Trevor: Here I am thinking that you are in it for band-aids and a couple of bucks, and you are crazy enough to think that you have feelings for him?
Marianna: Think what you want. Ric is good to me. He sees things in me, he talks to me, and he took me from this awful place when he didn't have to. I won't help you.
Marianna: Do what you want, ok? Make the phone call, send me back. But when Ric knows, you're never going to get anything from him.
Trevor: Mm-hmm. You think my son sees you as anything more than a social service project? You are an illegal immigrant masquerading as a citizen. He is the district attorney of Port Charles and it is his job to report you. Do you really think that you fit into his life?
Ric: She fits into my life a hell of a lot more than you do.
Sonny: Come here. This is what you want, right? Huh? Huh?
Sonny: Get off me, bitch.
Claudia: Bastard.
Sonny: I said it was a one-night stand, and I meant it.
Claudia: You are whipped.
Claudia: You are whipped and Kate Howard is nothing.
Sonny: You're the one who passed me the note saying you were no lady, and you know what? You were right.
Jason: I see you don't need me after all.
Claudia: Hello, handsome.
Sonny: You guys know each other?
Jason: Apparently not as well as the two of you know each other. Sonny, we need to go.
Sonny: Did you find Michael?
Jason: No, no.
Sonny: Ok, then I'm not --
Jason: Listen -- listen to me. You need -- you need to come with me, there's something you need to hear about right now. Ok, the guards are going to come back around, they're not going to be too happy this time.
Sonny: Give me the gun. Hold this.
Jax: Uh-uh. It came from "unknown caller," there's no way to trace it. I'm sorry, I know -- I know you wanted more, but at least we know he's ok.
Carly: There was a man who yelled and then a noise, and the line went dead.
Jax: Yes, and it's enough to make any parent's imagination run wild, but we don't really know anything -- except for Michael saying that -- that "it was his fault."
Carly: Yeah, you're right. He was really angry when he left here. You know, he's just wandering around somewhere, you know, maybe where he shouldn't be.
Jax: Have you heard from Sonny or Jason?
Jax: Sonny is probably still with Kate. I'm going to go talk to him about calling the police.
Carly: He's never going to agree to that, Jax.
Jax: Well, even if he says no, it's at least something I can do, you know? I mean, I call myself Michael's father. I should've been more aware of what was going on with him. Maybe I should've been more confrontational.
Carly: I'll go with you, ok?
Jax: No, somebody needs to stay here in case he comes home. Ok?
Ric: You know, Elizabeth said that you should probably get some rest. I think that's a good idea, huh?
Ric: It's been a long night.
Trevor: Yeah -- been a long, hard night.
Ric: You don't know a damn thing about Marianna.
Trevor: Richie, what are you getting upset for? For something like that?
Ric: You are to treat her with respect and kindness for as long as she is here, otherwise don't bother coming around. Do you understand?
Trevor: How long is she going to be here?
Ric: For as long as she wants.
Trevor: You mean you are going to give an open invitation to someone like her?
Ric: "Someone like her?" I see. Are you going to add racism and -- and class bigotry now to your repertoire of stellar characteristics, Trevor?
Trevor: Richie, think with your head instead of your zipper.
Ric: Ok, that's it, now, enough!
Trevor: You are the district attorney of Port Charles, and it is your duty to report her. She's already started with the lies -- big, imaginary ones -- just to get her hooks into you. She probably did it with somebody before.
Ric: Ok, this conversation that we were going to have about the waterfront property is over.
Trevor: Richard, have you signed the deed to that property? Are you ready to take ownership?
Ric: No, I'm ready for you to leave.
Trevor: All right. We'll talk about it later.
Ric: Yeah -- when hell freezes over, ok?
Trevor: You know, Richie, they're telling me it's getting colder every day.
Ric: Get out.
Trevor: I'm still going to keep my eye out on you because you're absolutely incapable of watching out for yourself. Huh.
Johnny: Sonny Corinthos isn't somebody you just play games with!
Claudia: Oh, what, you think what you did wasn't playing games, John -- daring him to kill you?
Johnny: Sonny lets his temper get the best of him, yes, t he's a smart man.
Claudia: What do you do -- defend this place with spitballs and your good charm? I need a damn gun!
Johnny: What, you think we leave them lying around like after-dinner mints?
Claudia: I don't know -- Uncle Rudy does. He taught me to be prepared, John.
Johnny: Apparently -- unless there's a man involved. Come here. You're a mess.
Claudia: I know. I know. It'll pass.
Johnny: Do you want something?
Johnny: Have you thought about being on something?
Claudia: John, you think this house was hell for you? You don't know what hell is.
[Monitor beeps]
Kate: I don't know why I'd bring up the name of someone I haven't thought of in years. I -- I don even know if Olivia had a --
[Monitor quickens]
Kate: Last name. There was just so many models that came through "Couture" -- hundreds. I'm sure that more than one of them was named "Olivia."
Alexis: I'm sorry I'm upsetting you.
Kate: I'm not, Alexis.
Alexis: Well, your heart monitor says otherwise. Every time that name gets brought up, your heart starts racing, which is a terrible idea in your condition. So before I give you cardiac arrest, I'm going to go pick up my daughter.
Kate: I'm fine, Alexis, I'm just tired. Dr. Julian's going to give me demerits.
Alexis: You hang in there, ok?
Kate: You, too, and best to Kristina.
Alexis: All right.
Kate: I hope she's better.
Alexis: Thank you, and I'll see you tomorrow?
Alexis: Ok. Get some sleep.
[Monitor beeps normally]
Sonny: Can you hold on for one second?
Sonny: Can -- you pull me out of the Zaccharas' place to tell me this garbage? Kate's been shot, my son's missing, I had the prime suspect right in front of me. And now you're spinning stories about, what, a phone call that a psychopath like Jerry Jacks gets about Lorenzo Alcazar.
Jason: Yeah, isn't -- isn't that worth thinking about?
Sonny: No, it's not, because he's dead. He's been dead, you saw to it -- unless you're telling me that you don't know what dead is.
Jason: I'm saying at this point, you can't rule anything out.
Sonny: No, I can, because I know who did it!
Jason: No -- no, Sonny, no, you don't. You want it to be the Zaccharas. Why -- why do you want a war?
Sonny: I don't want a war, Jason. They started this, they came after my territory. What do you want me to do?
Jason: If this were anybody but Trevor --
Sonny: Yeah, if it were anybody but Trevor, they'd end up in the funeral. Ok, you know what? You don't want to help me? Go ahead and chase ghosts. I know what I got to do, and I'm going to go do it.
Ric: Can I look now?
[Marianna laughs]
Ric: Uh -- I don't know -- you look amazing.
Marianna: It's beautiful.
Ric: Yeah?
[Marianna gasps]
Marianna: Dios mio.
Ric: What's the matter, you got a pin or something?
Marianna: No, the price.
Ric: Oh, they were supposed to remove that.
Marianna: It's so simple. Why is it so much?
Ric: Sounds like something your mother would say about life. Listen, I -- I called Alexis and I told her I was back in town. So while I'm visiting Kristina and Molly --
Marianna: I can't do this. I -- I just can't -- I can't do this to you one second longer. I can't.
Ric: Do what?
[Marianna sighs]
Jason: What -- what?
Carly: We heard from Michael.
Jason: Is -- is he ok?
Carly: I don't know. I don't know. He sounded like he was being held against his will, but he got away long enough to make a call, but the number was unknown and we can't trace it.
Jason: All right, all right, I'm going to take this to Spinelli. Where's Jax right now?
Carly: He went to talk to Sonny, he wants to get the police involved now, Jason.
Jason: Carly, that -- that is a bad idea.
Carly: Why? What aren't you telling me here?
Jason: Sonny thinks the Zaccharas may have Michael.
Carly: And you don't?
Jason: No, I'm thinking a lot of things right now, what I don't have is any kind of proof.
Carly: Oh, come on! Don't you make me play 20 questions, we're talking about my son here!
Jason: Just calm -- calm down, please, and listen to me. I need your help. When you and Jerry went to Caracas trying to prove that Alcazar was still alive, did you ever, ever think it was possible that he was?
Carly: Oh, my god!
Carly: Oh --
Jason: Carly --
Sonny: Hey. No fair -- coming around when I wasn't here.
Kate: Well, you're here now.
Sonny: Dr. Julian said something upset you. He didn't like the way it looked, what happened?
Kate: Um -- Kate's an a-type personality, Sonny, she doesn't like not being in control.
Sonny: Well, you know what? Kate is also my type, and she's going to get better.
Kate: Why do you keep looking at that clock? Got a hot date?
Sonny: No, no, no, listen to me. It's just -- it's just I got a -- a sensitive business deal going down and I -- I just got to make sure it goes down as planned.
Johnny: I was just thinking about you. You're not calling to cancel on me, are you?
Lulu: Um --
Johnny: Huh. Well, because it turns out I want to see you more than I thought. Don't disappoint me.
Lulu: Ok, ok. Um -- I'll see you at the Haunted Star.
Johnny: Oh -- oh, nice to meet you.
Emily: What are you thinking?
Nikolas: About what I said to Lulu about -- about acting on her fear. I told you that I was afraid if I remember who did this to you, that I'd lose you. Well, if I am able to identify who the killer was, then maybe -- maybe you'll be able to be at rest or -- I don't know.
Emily: Maybe I would.
Nikolas: You know, I just -- I've been so afraid and so selfish, I just can't do this to you anymore.
Emily: Wait, Nikolas, where are you going?
Nikolas: You'll know soon enough. I can't do this without you.
Sam: Don't --
Diego: Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh. Now, I realize we have a lot of catching up to do, and we will. There's plenty of time -- well, less for you, of course, but enough so you don't have to die with any questions. Come on.
Sam: [Muffled] No -- no -- stop -- god --
Maxie: Oh --
Diego: Well, look who's here. Kate: Do I know you? Claudia: I know you. Sonny: What happened? Patrick: It's not just your baby, is it?
Feb 26, 2008 10:43
[Shower runs]
Singer: You walked into the room last night
[Shower stops]
Singer: Shook my hand and left me mesmerized the way you move I stand here craving without a clue on top of cloud nine
Patrick: Oh, you got it?
Robin: Yeah. It's really great, thanks.
Patrick: You're not so great. Want to tell me what's really going on with you?
[Robin sighs]
Sonny: I'm sorry to bring up business, you know I can't explain anything.
Kate: I didn't say a word.
Sonny: You ok? You didn't have to say a word because I saw that look on your face -- the same look that you used to have when we were teenagers and somebody would say "Joe Scully."
Kate: Yeah. [New York accent] I shoulda taken the bum out when I had the chance.
Sonny: Well, you got to be careful, because you know what? You don't want to slip and say something that Connie's going to regret later. Listen, um, on a serious note, you -- you have no idea who did this to you?
Kate: [Normal voice] No, Sonny.
Sonny: Ok, listen to me. Who was the last person you saw that day?
Kate: Trevor. And it wasn't a pleasant exchange.
Sonny: I'll be right back, ok? Ok?
Jason: Hey, just try to calm down and breathe, ok? Just breathe.
Jax: What happened?
Carly: I just had a pain.
Jax: Well, call 911.
Carly: No, no, I don't want to leave Morgan.
Jax: Mercedes is here with him.
Carly: Lorenzo Alcazar may still be alive.
Lucky: Hey. How would you feel about me taking Cameron and Jake away for a few days for some father/son bonding?
Elizabeth: What about Sam?
[Sam struggles]
Diego: Ooh. Well, look who's here -- the nasty perra who put me in jail.
[Diego chuckles]
Patrick: Everything's ok with the pregnancy, right?
Robin: The fact that I could pass H.I.V. on to my child is always my concern. But I'm taking good care of myself, and so far, the baby's fine.
Patrick: No second thoughts about using a sperm bank instead of the old-fashioned way?
Robin: I'm not sure there's anything old-fashioned about going around asking guys to donate sperm.
Patrick: I mean the old-fashioned conception way -- one guy, one girl.
Robin: You know what? Just stop.
Patrick: What?
Robin: The words "one guy and one girl" coming out of your mouth is a joke, ok? You love all women, all shapes and sizes -- blond, brunette, bald.
Patrick: Ok, Robin, whatever you think you heard, there's --
Robin: You're living the dream, and we're just here to accessorize it. And second of all --
Patrick: I --
Robin: You didn't want a family -- that's the reason we broke up. So for you to talk about loving conception like it's not a big deal -- it's a big deal to me, ok? So for you to stand there and make jokes about it --
Patrick: I wasn't joking about it.
Robin: It's not fair, and it's not nice. Thank you very much for the gift, but you don't have to play uncle Patrick, act like you're interested.
Patrick: I am interested.
Robin: Why? We broke up. I am moving on with my life, a life that you wanted no part of.
Patrick: Because, Robin, you're alone, ok? And I understand you have friends and everything else --
Robin: And friends are all I need! I made a decision to have this baby without its father's knowledge or input. It's my joys, my burdens, my baby. It's for me to deal with.
Maxie: Oh -- dad, what is it?
Mac: I've got some news about the text message killer.
[Sam screams, muffled]
Diego: Oh, no, shh.
[Sam screams]
Diego: Shut up.
[Sam whimpers]
Diego: Hey, shut up, shut up!
Maxie: I'm sorry, I'm getting really lousy reception, I can't hear you.
Mac: Logan slipped into a coma. They won't be getting any information from him for a while.
Lucky: You know, Sam isn't a part of the picture anymore. So you don't have to worry about her being around the boys, especially Jake.
Elizabeth: So you're going to take the boys and --
Lucky: For a few days of fishing. You know, Jake -- he's just at the age where he's too young to get anything more than a few people making a fuss over him. And Cameron -- he's getting at the age where he, you know, needs a father. Or maybe I just need a son to teach a few things that were never taught to me.
Elizabeth: I wasn't attacking Sam. I -- what about her hit-and-run case, is it still open?
Lucky: I'm not in charge anymore. I was just way too close. Sam -- she doesn't want me doing it out of guilt.
Elizabeth: Well, I'm sure it's hard for you to be around her -- because you still care about her.
Lucky: Yeah, I do. Sam was right, I do feel guilty. Because if we hadn't fought, she hadn't -- she wouldn't have run out there. And Logan Hayes -- he wouldn't have ran her out in front of a car.
Elizabeth: Don't -- don't do that, you were not behind the wheel of that car.
Lucky: Yeah, but there is a chance that that case may never be solved. Unless, of course, you know, the person that ran Sam down in the road grows a conscience and comes forward.
Det. Harper: Hey, we need to talk. There's been a new development in the text-message-killer case.
Jason: There you go.
Jax: You know, the last thing Carly needs is for you to frighten her with all this garbage about alcazar. She already proved he was alive, all right? Isn't that why the charges were dropped against you? Come on, let's go, I'll take you to the hospital.
Carly: No, wait. What Jason is trying to say is alcazar may be here.
Jax: Well, if that's the case, I'm sure Sonny will want to talk to Jason about his job performance, huh, his failure to execute?
Carly: What if Lorenzo is the one who took Michael?
Jax: If that's the case, I'm sure he would've contacted one of us by now, huh, already twisting the knife. Isn't that how it works in your line of business, huh?
Carly: No, don't -- don't take this out on Jason because he didn't do anything!
Jax: Of course. He never does anything -- even when a murder's been committed.
Jason: You know what? We'll talk about this later.
Carly: No, Jason, we have to talk about this --
Jason: Carly, just please go get yourself checked out, ok?
Jax: I agree with him. Come on, let's go. Come on, let's go.
Carly: I am fine! I am fine, the pain has passed. Sometimes you have pains in your first trimester, it's ok.
Jax: You just -- you don't want to leave Morgan because -- because Jason has scared you.
Carly: Jason didn't do anything, he was trying to help me, Jax. That's it, he was helping me breathe, he was talking to me.
Jax: You know what? Let me just get one thing straight. Jason is not going to be the anointed guardian of our child like he is with Michael and Morgan, ok? That's not going to happen.
Sonny: All right, part one has been taken care of. Here's part two -- Trevor Lansing.
Kate: Hmm -- back so soon? Do I know you?
Claudia: No. But I know you. And I think it's time introductions were made.
Nadine: You know, my aunt Rayleen used to predict the sexes of people's kids all the time -- before they were born, I mean.
Robin: Ok, I'll bite. How could she tell if it was a boy or a girl?
Nadine: Well, I know the first thing was that you had to remember if the baby was conceived on a sad day or a happy day. And then whether you woke up the next morning facing east or west.
Nadine: And then the last thing is whether the first thing you had to eat in the morning was salty or sweet.
Nadine: I know it's different with artificial insemination -- which always struck me as a contradiction in terms -- but can you remember any of that?
Robin: Actually, I remember in great detail. So what does it all mean?
Nadine: I forget.
Robin: Wait. You know, I -- I'm already buried in stuffed animals and it's going to be months until I deliver, so maybe this will brighten the day of one of your sick kids in pediatrics.
Nadine: Thanks. See ya.
Leo: I have to say it -- I did good. And you -- you've been a model patient.
Epiphany: I'm not paying for any extra bedside manner, especially the kind that comes laced with sarcasm. So whatever kind of party you people have been having while I've been in here is over.
Cassius: Yep, I'd say she's just about ready -- if not to leave, definitely ready to blow.
Leo: Mm-hmm.
Epiphany: I've been ready to get out of this room since I got in it.
Cassius: But your heart isn't.
Leo: Look, one more night isn't going to do any harm. Ok, maybe for the duty nurse assigned to you, but --
Epiphany: You've got to the count of five.
Leo: You're welcome.
Cassius: So -- um -- how you feel?
Epiphany: Why are you asking? Haven't you been standing outside the door for the last 10 minutes listening?
Cassius: How do you feel?
Epiphany: Like a failure.
Ric: You ok now?
Ric: Uh-huh?
Ric: No?
Marianna: Maybe.
Ric: Ok. Now that we've covered all the bases, I -- I can't let you off the hook here.
Marianna: You know, I just feel like I'm taking advantage of you.
Ric: Look, I took you out of a violent and untenable situation.
Marianna: You walked into an argument.
Ric: They call that "domestic violence" in the law, ok, Marianna? Your -- I don't know -- keeper, ex-keeper is lucky that he's not in jail.
Marianna: No, I'm lucky that I'm not being deported.
Ric: I'm working on that. I'm making a few phone calls, and before you know it, we'll have everything taken care of. You don't have to worry, all right?
Marianna: Should I go?
Ric: No, no, no, no, no, you -- you don't have to hide, ok? If it's my father, he's not welcome back in here, and if it's anybody else, it's about time that they knew about you.
Ric: Hey.
[Alexis giggles]
Ric: How are you, sweetheart?
Alexis: We got your message, but you didn't have to --
Marianna: Hello.
Mike: Here you go -- does this come with it?
Spinelli: Thank you, senior, sir.
Mike: Ok. Absolutely.
Scott: Spinelli --
Lucky: Hey, hey, hey --
Det. Harper: Scott, Scott --
Scott: You're going to pay for what you did!
Spinelli: What -- what did I do to incur the wrath of elder Baldwin?
Scott: Shut -- shut up, you little fly, you put my son in a coma for no reason!
Mike: Hey, hey -- except he attacked innocent women. I was there when he went after Alexis.
Scott: My son is not the killer! I got proof, Mike! Real proof.
Maxie: So, what happens now?
Mac: We wait for Logan to wake up.
Maxie: That's it?
Mac: There's nothing else we can do. Look, I'm sorry, I want to see this guy be brought to justice as much as you do.
Maxie: "Anxious" isn't the word. I can't wait to look into the eyes of the man who killed my sister and tell him exactly what I think about him.
Diego: I can't wait.
Scott: You and your little Mickey Mouse Club, and your sister --
Lucky: Logan attacked Lulu.
Scott: He didn't attack her, he grabbed her. She just thought he was going to attack her, but why wouldn't she think that? I mean, her father is a rapist.
Lucky: Oh, hey, and who made sure she found out about it?
Mike: Ok, ok, wait a minute, wait a minute, what's changed here? Logan's in a coma, so how does anybody know one way or another if he's the killer?
Lucky: It looks like he has an alibi the night the text message killer attacked Sam on the docks before she was chased in front of a car.
Scott: Now, you listen to me, you little junior detective --
Spinelli: There -- there was reasonable evidence!
Scott: There was circumstantial evidence!
Spinelli: What about the ribs?
Scott: He was in a fight. I know that for a fact because I saw them bring the -- these kids in, these -- these punks in that were arrested for drunk-and-disorderly.
Det. Harper: They have a record for getting high and busting up bars all over the town. One of the owners came forward, said he recognized Logan, apparently got into a fight with these guys the same night Sam was hit.
Spinelli: So --
Scott: So he never saw Sam. He is not the killer! He has not killed anybody!
Diego: Come on, baby, get off the phone with daddy so we can make some noise.
Maxie: Well, isn't there enough to charge Logan with anyway?
Mac: No. And whatever pill you and Spinelli found in coop's room, there was no trace of it in Logan's system.
Maxie: That doesn't mean he's innocent.
Mac: Or guilty. Look, I've got to go. I've got calls coming in.
Maxie: Well, dad, you can't just give up on Logan as a suspect. The attacks are going to stop now, you'll see.
Diego: Ah.
Diego: Damn! She got away -- and I took too long to recover from that injury.
Diego: Now we're going to get serious!
Robin: Ugh!
Patrick: Am I allowed to ask?
Robin: Angie Smith.
Patrick: Sick pregnant woman who was brought into the E.R.?
Robin: The woman who was refused treatment because she didn't have insurance.
Patrick: Her husband handled the insurance issue when he came out with a bomb strapped to his chest.
Robin: It wasn't real.
Patrick: Robin, you can't run around threatening people's lives.
Robin: His wife could barely stand up. I -- I mean, their unborn child was in jeopardy. What would you have done in his place? You know what? Never mind. That question doesn't apply to you because you would never know what it's like to be in that position. You don't understand what it's like, what that guy is going through locked up, knowing that he had the right to be desperate.
Patrick: The system failed him, what can I --
Robin: And it will continue to fail him. His baby still might die.
Patrick: How do you know all this?
Robin: Because Kelly has a friend at County that saw Angie in the waiting room -- she was never seen -- and my uncle Mac is working up a case against Joe. So even if by some miracle this baby is born, Joe won't be there to see it, and it's their first child -- probably their only child.
Patrick: It's how things happen sometimes, Robin.
Robin: Could you be any more cold and clinical?
Patrick: I analyze things -- it's what I do, that's why I'm a good doctor.
Robin: Yeah, well, there's more to life than being a good doctor.
Patrick: Cancel my consultations this afternoon, please.
Claudia: Personally, I've always found American fashion so conservative -- useless, really.
[Monitor beeps rapidly]
Claudia: Something I gave up at a young age -- along with my virginity.
[Kate coughs]
Kate: I still haven't caught your name -- ahem.
Jason: I know you don't want to hear this, but we need to deal with the possibility that Alcazar is still alive.
Sonny: Alcazar didn't know what was coming, didn't know what hit him and now you're telling me he's still aboveground.
Jason: No, I'm saying that I don't know.
Sonny: Michael is out there somewhere. Every hour that goes by, the odds go up that I'm not going to see my son, and we're chasing phantoms?
Jason: No, I -- I want to find Michael as much as you do, but I'm not determined to pin it on the Zaccharas.
Sonny: It makes more sense than anything you're telling me.
Jason: What, like Alcazar didn't have a score to settle with the people that this -- this killer went after?
P.A. Announcer: Code blue, I.C.U. Two.
Sonny: Excuse me -- no, no -- what -- what happened?
Regina: You can't be in here. Get out so we can help her!
Sonny: I just want to know what happened to her!
Feb 26, 2008 10:46
Sonny: Hey, hey, hey --
Claudia: Oh --
Sonny: Listen to me.
Claudia: Hey, hey --
Sonny: What did you do?
Claudia: You have a real paranoid streak, has anybody ever told you that?
Sonny: Kate was fine when I left her room. What did you do?
Jason: Sonny --
Claudia: Oh, you are obviously the calmer, more collected half of the Corinthos-Morgan enterprises here.
Sonny: I'm not dealing with this.
[Claudia sighs]
[Gurney rolls]
Sonny: Jason? Do something with her.
Claudia: By all means, do something with me.
Leo: It looks like she's got a collapsed lung, we're going to have to do a second chest tube.
Sonny: Why is that?
Leo: We don't have time for this, Mr. Corinthos.
Sonny: Ok, can you -- can you tell me if she's all right?
Leo: Yes, yes, but she needs rest, and anything you can do to help facilitate that would be greatly appreciated.
Cassius: What do you think you're a failure at?
Epiphany: Being a nurse.
Cassius: I think you wound up here because you're too good of a nurse -- you're too dedicated. I mean, you come on like a landslide, but you do clear a path for a purpose, and that's to help people.
Elizabeth: I hear I am being officially relieved of duty? Let me tell you, I will be relieved because I don't know you do it.
Epiphany: Apparently, not very well, or else I wouldn't have wound up here.
Cassius: She thinks she's a failure because she had a heart attack.
Epiphany: Don't tell the world my business.
Cassius: I -- look, I'll be right back.
Epiphany: I should've known what was happening to me -- I'm a nurse.
Elizabeth: You're also human -- sometimes we forget that. We also forget that it's not just men who have heart attacks.
Epiphany: Particularly, some old fool who's trying to keep up in bed with some sweet young thing.
Elizabeth: You didn't fail in anything. You just ignored some of the signs.
Epiphany: While I've been in here, I've been trying to tell myself that I wasn't a failure as a mother. I lost that argument, too.
Carly: Morgan? Morgan? Hey. Come here. Can I have a hug? Hmm. Hey, you know what? Why don't you go upstairs and you tell Mercedes that we are going to have ice cream in the kitchen, ok?
Morgan: What about Michael?
Carly: We can eat around the outside of the ice cream and leave the middle for Michael. We can make a really big bowl for him, ok? Ok.
Jax: You should sit down. Maybe I can draw you a bath, give you a massage or something.
Carly: No, I'm fine. You heard the doctor -- she said I'm fine.
Jax: Yes, I also heard her tell you to minimize your stress.
Carly: It's going to be a little difficult with Michael, you know -- wherever he is. He doesn't even know he has a brother or a sister on the way. Maybe I shouldn't have been so selfish, you know? Maybe I should've just told him, and things would've turned out differently -- he would've stayed closer to home. Maybe he would've gone left instead of right or whatever.
Jax: Stop second-guessing yourself.
Carly: I can't help it.
Jax: It's not good for you or Michael, it's not going to help.
Carly: I just should've been more aware, more prepared.
Jax: You know what? The important thing is you've prepared him. Ok, you've been preparing him for 12 years and he knows that. He -- he knows that you love him. He knows that you will move heaven and earth to bring him home. And you know what else? He takes after you -- he's a survivor. But this little one? This little one hasn't had the chance to learn from its mother yet. This little baby's very vulnerable. We need to take extra care of him.
Carly: I know, I know.
Jax: And I'm sorry that I got mad about Jason. I really am. I've been -- I've been getting upset a lot lately, ever since I found out that you were pregnant, and I don't want to be like that, I'm sorry.
Carly: That's ok.
Jax: I'm just -- I'm just scared.
Carly: I know, I am -- I'm scared, too. But I'm telling you, Jax, the thought that Lorenzo Alcazar could be alive -- that just freaks me out because there are so many people in Port Charles that he blames for hurting him and his family.
Marianna: Why don't I make us some coffee and cookies?
Ric: You -- you don't have to serve us.
Marianna: Given everything, it seems it's the least I can do.
Alexis: Ok -- uh -- thank you. I'll take mine with --
Marianna: Black, one sugar -- no, two.
Ric: Oh.
Alexis: How did you know that?
Ric: It's a gift.
Marianna: It's more like a quirk.
Marianna: I'll be back.
Alexis: Come here, sweetie. Come sit down here, ok? There you go.
Ric: Hmm?
Alexis: So, uh, you sounded happy when you called --
Alexis: Lighter. Now I know why.
Ric: Well, I went off to sift through the wreckage of my childhood, and Marianna was just something that was unexpected.
Alexis: I think she's lovely. And I'm sorry about that mess, her immigration mess that the jerk left her with.
Ric: Yeah. I'm going to need some help from you -- changing her status here in the states. Yeah, I burned a few bridges, if you must know.
Alexis: You think?
Ric: Yeah.
Alexis: You think? Yeah, well -- so what are you going to do with that waterfront property that Skye gave you?
Ric: I haven't even signed the papers yet. Yes, yes, I know. The opportunity to hold at much power over Sonny and my father and anybody else I've got it in for -- how unlike me not to grab it.
Alexis: I think that sounds good -- whatever the reason.
Ric: You look tired -- no offense.
Alexis: I am, but you didn't need to come back.
Ric: Well, Jerry seemed to think so.
Alexis: Jerry called you?
Ric: Mm-hmm. He said that things were getting a little harried for you here.
Alexis: Well, they're evening out. Sam's out of the hospital --
Ric: Good.
Alexis: She's being annoyingly independent.
Ric: Huh -- like her mother.
[Alexis chuckles]
Ric: Sorry.
Alexis: It's ok.
[Ric chuckles]
Alexis: You know, it -- it turns out that Logan Hayes might be the text message killer.
Ric: You're kidding.
Alexis: We'll talk about it later.
Alexis: Right now I'm concerned about Kristina -- who's not here. Where is she? Kristina?
Ric: Kristina? Honey?
Marianna: Looks like somebody was hungry after all, huh, baby? Hmm.
Robin: Check in about an hour.
Patrick: Hey, you got a minute?
Patrick: Robin, stop.
Robin: Stop what?
Patrick: Stop being so hostile and defensive when all I'm trying to do is help.
Robin: I know what you're trying to do. You're trying to be nice to me to make up for the fact that you didn't want to have a baby with me. You're trying to make up for the fact that you thought I was a fool to ask my friends to dinner in hopes of a sperm donation.
Patrick: Robin, stop, please, just give me a minute. There's something I want to show you. Will you just -- please?
Robin: How?
Patrick: The charges are still pending on Joe. In the meantime, all he needed was bail money -- a lot of it. I convinced Mac that he's hardly a flight risk.
Robin: But they don't have any insurance -- Joe had to close his shop.
Patrick: Yeah, I talked to my friends down at the speedway. It turns out Joe really does know his car. They were so impressed that they hired him on the spot -- agreed to waive the six-month wait time for health coverage, so --
Joe: Hey, doc?
Patrick: Yeah?
Joe: I -- uh -- I don't even know how to thank you. We know it's a girl, and we've been holding off on names, you know, but now we're thinking "Patricia" -- if that's ok with you?
Patrick: Yeah. Yeah, I'd be honored.
[Joe laughs]
Joe: Thanks, bud.
Epiphany: It's these damn meds they're giving me. I hate the side effects -- they make me --
Elizabeth: Slow down?
Epiphany: Sad. I'd wake up in here feeling sorry for myself, because of the condition that I'm in, because my son didn't have the decency to come see me. And then I'd realize that I didn't have a son anymore. Maybe I work as hard as I do because I don't want to stop and think about where I've been a failure.
Elizabeth: Your son was a kind man who cared deeply about others and -- and gave a voice to people who didn't have one. I mean, he put himself on the line for what he believed.
Epiphany: And he would up working for bad people and dying in a ditch.
Elizabeth: Things happen that are out of our control. I turn my back for 10 seconds, my little boy threw a match in the trash can -- I could've lost everything.
Epiphany: I hovered over Stanford when he was a baby. I'd sit by his crib and sing him one more lullaby, just in case he really wasn't asleep -- at least, that's what I told myself. What I wouldn't give -- you -- you better go. If I broke down in front of you now, there'd be hell to pay to get you to do anything for me later.
Elizabeth: We all listen. You are very respected and --
Epiphany: Feared.
Elizabeth: And loved. You were missed more than you know.
Epiphany: I'm going to make you eat those words.
Elizabeth: Bring it on.
Jason: You need to leave.
Claudia: You know, I distinctly heard your boss tell you to do something with me.
Jason: Yeah -- and I just told you to leave.
Claudia: Ok, look, if you're more of the enforcer than the idea man, that's fine because I have enough ideas for the both of us.
Jason: Do you have a death wish?
Claudia: Come on, if you thought I actually did something to Kate Howard, I would already be a -- a beautiful corpse.
Sonny: Jason -- what the hell is she still doing here?
Claudia: I'll get him to ease up on you.
Jason: She's leaving.
Claudia: Look, before you go postal on some poor orderly, you should know the lady -- as you call her -- was already having breathing trouble when I walked in.
Sonny: Well, you shouldn't have walked in in the first place.
Claudia: Well, I was just checking out my competition.
Sonny: Kate Howard doesn't have competition.
Claudia: Really? I don't think she'd feel that way if she knew how we met -- a couple of drinks in a bar, a little napkin foreplay.
Sonny: Ok -- come here. You listen to me, all right?
Claudia: Uh-huh. What?
Sonny: You steer clear of me and anybody I care about.
Claudia: Or what?
Sonny: Ask your brother.
Jason: She's going to be a problem.
Sonny: She already is.
Jason: What'd you mean about Johnny?
Lucky: I want all the evidence you and Maxie think you have on this text message killer. Either you bring it down to the station, or I will be back with a warrant and I will take that laptop -- you got 24 hours.
Spinelli: I -- I will comply.
Lucky: You better. Who knows what could happen to everything you got on there? You know there's a nasty virus going around. We have to go fill in Mac on what's going on, so when you see his daughter -- you know, the one that's still alive? -- You tell her to leave this alone before she gets hurt.
Mike: Whew. So, hi -- hi.
Woman: Hi.
Mike: Haven't you been here before?
Woman: Why, yes, I have -- what a wonderful memory you have. And, of course, I remember you -- such nice eyes.
Mike: Well -- uh -- thank you. Uh -- so, is there anything I can get you this time?
Woman: Well, I'd like to reserve some tables for tomorrow --
Mike: Oh, fine, fine --
Woman: Afternoon.
Mike: How many?
Woman: Six of my sisters.
Mike: Oh -- big family.
Woman: In the hundreds of thousands. And I need to hang up a sign, and there'll be a special menu.
Mike: Oh, a special menu? Well, that's kind of short notice for that, you know, I --
Woman: It's all taken care of -- you'll be serving this lovely soup.
Mike: Oh -- "Campbell's Healthy Request." That's great, great, but I -- I don't think this is going to be enough to go around.
Woman: Oh, we'll bring plenty, sweetie.
Mike: Oh, ok.
Woman: Ok. See you tomorrow.
Mike: Ok.
Woman: Such nice eyes.
Maxie: Oh, Spinelli, I have some really lousy news -- Logan is in a coma.
Spinelli: I have worse news the crabby commando is not the text message killer.
Maxie: What? How can you be sure?
Spinelli: Apparently, he has an alibi for the night that everyday hero Sam was attacked.
Maxie: Why didn't you call me and tell me? I was just at Sam's. I could've warned her.
Cassius: I've been looking out for them ever since you've been in here. Apparently, you must've been holding on to this when you had your heart attack.
Epiphany: Well, I guess if anything could attack your heart, this would be it. I still don't know how Stanford wound up in something like this. I haven't talked to anybody, make any arrangements.
Cassius: You'll have a lot more questions about your son's death, and believe me, they will all be answered.
Epiphany: Why do you care, Cassius?
Cassius: Now, that's a question I can answer, but I'm not going to -- not until tomorrow.
[Robin sniffles]
Robin: You have to stay away from me, ok? I have a consultation. I have to be a doctor, not a hormonal expectant mother.
Patrick: That's not what this is about, is it? It's not about hormones?
Robin: Well, I should know. It's my body, it's my baby.
Patrick: Your baby -- yes, I know. I got it.
Robin: What you did in there for Joe and Angie -- that was --
Patrick: I just think a father should be there when his baby's born -- just like the father of your baby should be there. It's not just your baby, is it? It's --
Elizabeth: Lucky wants to spend some more time with Cameron and Jake.
Jason: That's ok.
Elizabeth: I'm afraid -- it's looking more and more like I'm the one who actually hit Sam, and I don't know how much longer I'm going to keep to myself. I mean, if I go to jail --
Jason: No, no, don't even start thinking about that right now.
Elizabeth: Then what's going to happen to my boys?
Jason: Just -- just give me a little more time.
Diego: Oh.
Sam: Where are we?
Diego: Home sweet home. You know, it's going to be really sad to say goodbye.
[Timer beeps] Claudia: Sonny said something about Johnny. If John's hurt, all bets are off. Sonny: My son is missing!

Jason: Max?
Claudia: This stuff is awful. Sonny should really keep his day job.
Jason: What are you doing here?
Claudia: Your boss wasn't interested in a deal of mutual satisfaction, what about you?
Kate: Were you here all night again?
Sonny: What am i supposed to do?
Kate: I thought you had some sensitive business deal.
Sonny: Don't you worry about that, it's being handled.
[Johnny groans]
Max: Let's go.
Lulu: Hey, i need to talk to someone.
Elizabeth: Ok -- I'm just about to go on break -- what's wrong?
Lulu: I was supposed to have a date with Johnny and he didn't show up, so I was wondering if --
Scott: Lulu! Before today is done, I'm going to have you arrested for attempted murder of my son.
[Diego whistles] I brought breakfast -- for me. Now, what's the point of wasting good food if you're going to die?
Diego: Ah. You know what's amazing? All this fury about the text message killer, and I can still get my morning coffee by the dockside stand, and no one knows who I am or what I've really done.
Sam: You are not going to get away with this. People are going to know that I'm missing and they will come looking for me.
Diego: Oh, yeah, but, I mean, how long before they really look, or they care I mean, by then, you're just going to be part of Jason Morgan's personal burial ground -- along with my father. Oh, man! [Diego chuckles]
Diego: I got to tell you, though, I am -- I am going to miss all this, you know? Just that smell of fear everyone got when I was close. Ah.
Sam: What are you taking?
Diego: Oh, these? That bullet that you put in my chest damaged my liver. These babies are just keeping down my bile, you know? And believe me, I need lots of it.
Sam: Well, I hope it eats you alive in hell.
Diego: Ooh. You think I'm the only one going there? You shot me, Sam, and left me for dead. Your whore of a mother stabbed my uncle Luis and threw him off a balcony. You know your friend, the police commissioner's daughter -- the one that got away from me yesterday? She put me in jail. Almost got her in the park, though, but her sister took her place. I got to tell you, I almost felt bad about Georgie. Oh, well.
[Diego sighs] And then there was my poor father. How many times did Sonny and Jason try to kill him?
Sam: I don't know -- he got what he deserved.
Diego: And so will you -- and everyone else.
Kate: Everything is such a haze. I remember you leaving, and then I had trouble breathing, and there was some woman here.
Sonny: What was she doing?
Kate: Just talking incessantly. Wasn't talking about anything, but I had a feeling she wanted to tell me something.
Leo: Ok. I'm sorry, but I need some doctor/patient bonding time.
Sonny: I'll be right back, ok?
Kate: Hey, Sonny, what about the woman?
Sonny: She's not going to bother you again, ok?
Jason: If you're here about business or a truce, I'm ready to listen to you. If you're not, there's no reason to stay.
Claudia: Most guys who look like you are looking for a quick fix.
Jason: Ok, Sonny's kid is missing, Kate Howard's been shot -- most likely, you and your family are involved. Sonny is understandably upset. You want to keep the peace? You tell me what you know.
Claudia: I don't know. I don't know who took his son, I don't know who shot Kate Howard -- not that I care. Why do you look like you don't believe me?
Jason: Because most women who look like you know how to lie.
Claudia: Huh. What's he see in her anyway -- the bedridden magazine queen?
Jason: That's a -- that's a question for Sonny.
Claudia: Well, I have a question for you.
Jason: Oh, yeah?
Claudia: What'd you want to be when you grew up?
Jason: You know what? I really don't have time for these questions.
Claudia: Well, I haven't offered my proposal yet, so --
Jason: Well, so offer it.
Claudia: No. Answer my question -- what did you want to be when you grew up?
[Jason sighs] Um -- they tell me I wanted to be a doctor.
Claudia: Oh, you don't remember?
Jason: No, I don't.
Claudia: I wish I had that kind of selective memory.
Jason: Well, it's not selective, it was an accident.
Claudia: Oh, you were in an accident? You're damaged goods? We have that in common.
Jason: I answered your question. What's your proposal?
Claudia: What would Sonny say if I said I could offer a truce between our families?
Jason: He'd say, "I don't believe it."
Claudia: Ok, well, I think you're an independent thinker. What do you say?
Johnny: Open the damn door!
Ian: What's going on here?
Scott: You -- you're going to pay for this, lulu. I mean, you're a Spencer, really, through and through, you -- agh -- ow- Let go of me!
Ian: This is a hospital. You will, a, behave accordingly, b, leave, or, c, wind up here as a patient yourself. Did any of that penetrate your alcoholic haze?
Scott: Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, all right, all right, let go of me!
Lucky: Listen, I -- I'll take it from here.
Scott: Hey -- oh, well, look at this -- we got another Spencer here, huh?The one on the right side of the law -- so all the other little Spencers can run wild.
Lucky: Baldwin, let's go somewhere so we can talk.
Scott: Where do you want to go? Want to go to my son's room watch him vegetate? Huh? Want to come, lulu?
Elizabeth: Are you ok?
Lulu: No, not really.
Ian: Why don't you take a break and -- and stay with her? And could you give me a few contact numbers before? Some of my patients seem to be flying out of the doors without completed care -- starting with Nikolas Cassadine.
Nadine: Nikolas? Nikolas? Nikolas? Nadine: Nikolas, what happened?
[Nikolas groans] I was on my way to the launch, I had another blackout.
Nadine: Last I saw, you were at G.H.
Nikolas: I know, I know -- I had to leave.
Nadine: Yeah, well, now you have to go back. I think even Emily would agree with me.
Nikolas: No, she's not -- she's not here, she's afraid.
Nadine: Of what?
Nikolas: I have to get back to Wyndemere. We need to get back to Wyndemere, Emily and I. You were right -- seeing her had a purpose all along. I've been playing afraid an confused, but now it's time for me to start playing smart.
Nadine: Are you sure you can make it?
Nikolas: Just help me, please.
Epiphany: Why did I know you'd show up before I could get out the door?
Cassius: My mother died of a heart attack less than a year ago. We were evacuees of Hurricane Katrina. Our home was cut in half, it was like looking inside a dollhouse. People inside were thrown around and crumpled like dolls -- all dead. My mother tried to go on as if nothing had happened, as if our whole world hadn't been destroyed All she really wanted to do was help people -- that is, until she collapsed from exhaustion. And I saw the pain in her eyes, but I missed the strain on her heart, and I -- I lost her. I wound up here and I started to see that same pain in your eyes, so I knew it had to be hurting your heart. So I tried to warn you. You know, you and my mother have a lot in common, you're a lot alike, except for one major difference -- you're alive. Epiphany, you are a survivor.
Epiphany: A lone survivor.
Cassius: No. Woman, you are anything but alone.
Leo: That's why we're going to take you on a little detour before you take command again.
Epiphany: What kind of detour?
Cassius: You like soup?
Mike: Ok, huh, good?
Woman: Little to the left.
Mike: To the left, up?
Woman: Your other left.
Mike: Oh -- ok.
Woman: It was so great of Campbell's to donate all this heart-healthy soup today.
Second woman: I've decided we should keep it to homestyle chicken noodle and new england clam chowder today. You know how Helen likes to swipe the cream of mushroom.
First woman: So true!
Mike: Ok, so, huh?
Woman: And thank you again so much for letting us use your restaurant today.
Mike: Oh, no problem at all.
Monica: Um -- excuse me.
Woman: Ok.
Monica: Hi. What did you say you called your local "go red" organization?
Woman: We're called "take heart."
Monica: Oh.
Woman: And we've managed to reach out and save so many women. You know, some of us, even hardcore professionals -- we just refuse to see what we're doing to ourselves.
Second woman: And for that, we rely on great doctors like yourself.
First woman: Yeah.
Monica: Oh --
Woman: Shall we sit?
Second woman: Yes.
Bobbie: Everyone understands if you don't want to be a part of this luncheon. You've had a hard few months. And you always contribute so much to this group, especially considering you're the younges member. B.J. would be very proud.
Spinelli: The jackal did not know you were the contributory type.
Maxie: There's a lot you don't know about me, just like there's a lot you didn't know about Georgie -- like the fact she was in love with you. I'm sorry, Spinelli. I loved Coop, and I wanted him to love me, and he did -- but I had to test that every day. And now he's dead, and the person who killed him is still out there. Not to mention on top of that, Scott Baldwin is accusing us of setting up Logan for a ceremonial sacrifice.
Spinelli: Ok, well, we should leave the ladies to lunch. The jackal has a mere 12 hours to turn over all damning evidence that we collected to your father.
Maxie: Spinelli, that means we still have 12 hours to find out who the real killer is.
Diego: Hmm. Boom! [Diego chuckles] Don't worry, it's not set to go off -- yet. Oh.
Sam: You're leaving somebody out. Coop, Maxie's boyfriend -- what did he ever do to you?
Diego: Oh, the quiet one. Yep, it's always the quiet one we got to look out for. See, he was putting pieces of the puzzle together, just tracing all the escape routes after the attacks and the killings, and trying to see if the victims had anything in common. He actually thought it was my father -- that's what led him down here, and that's what got him silenced. Ah, but listen, I got to go. So you can scream all you want, and Jason's not going to come to save you.
Sam: Jason will find you. He's going to want to get you back for what you did to his sister.
Diego: Right -- the Wyndemere ball. Yeah, Prince Cassadine's Halloween party -- that was fun. You know, I don't think Emily knew she was going to die for the sins of her brother. Huh. But Carly, though -- she's going to know. I want her to know now. Yeah, I want her to know that I was the one who took her phone and spied on her, took pictures of her and her new little husband. Huh. Yeah. And I want Sonny to mourn the mother of his children. Another death in the family -- just like all the deaths in mine.
Sam: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait -- what are you doing with those?
Diego: Just taking away the prize everyone thought they'd get when they killed my father. Don't go anywhere.
Johnny: What the hell is this?
Sonny: Whatever your friend Trevor makes it.
Johnny: Trevor's not my friend.
Sonny: Well, it looks like you're up the creek -- and you may never come down. [Sonny laughs] Nadine: Are you sure about this?
Nikolas: Yes. You were right -- Emily's the key to remembering who killed her. It's just my guilt has always blocked out the truth that she's been carrying all along, I just wasn't asking the right things.
Nadine: So what do you want me to do?
Nikolas: I want you to wait out here in the hall until I say it's ok to come in.
Nadine: Good luck. Although, my aunt -- we so don't have time for that right now. Ok.
Spinelli: The Jackal, P.I., needs to lay out all the clues in front of him, the wounded blond one will take notes.
Maxie: That's all I'm good for -- notes?
Spinelli: Well, of course, The Jackal, P.I., is counting on the wounded blond one for her superior --
Maxie: I'll get a pen. [Maxie sighs]
