General Hospital Transcript Monday 1/11/99

Provided by Laura

NIKOLAS: I WAS LYING,
SAYING THIS INFORMATION ABOUT
MY MOM AND STEFAN DIDN'T MATTER
TO ME.
LAURA: WHEN HE WAS A CHILD,
I WISH THAT YOU HAD TOLD HIM
EVERYTHING.
STEFAN: OBVIOUSLY, I THOUGHT
THAT HE HAD MORE TO GAIN
FROM HIS HERITAGE THAN
FROM HIS PARENTAGE.
LAURA: YOU WERE SO WRONG.
NIKOLAS: IT'S THE ONE WHO
CALLED HIMSELF "UNCLE" ALL THESE
YEARS THAT HAS TOLD LIE AFTER
LIE.
KATHERINE: I NEVER LIED
TO YOU.
HELENA: DON'T LET ME
INTERRUPT.
SONNY: WELL, WELL, WELL.
IF IT ISN'T THE MAN WHO KILLED
BRENDA.

CARLY: WHAT DO YOU WANT?
A.J.: YOUR IMMORTAL SOUL.
WHAT ELSE?
CARLY: MY FIRST-BORN.
COME TO THINK OF IT, YOU KNOW,
THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT
YOU THAT'S -- MAYBE THAT EVIL
GLINT IN YOUR EYE.
YOU DO YOU HAVE A VERY
DISTINCTIVE RUMPELSTILTSKIN
QUALITY ABOUT YOU.
A.J.: THAT'S THE NICEST THING
ANYONE'S EVER SAID TO ME --
OUTSIDE OF MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY,
OF COURSE.
CARLY: OH, OF COURSE.
A.J.: RUMPELSTILTSKIN WAS
A GENIUS.
LOOK WHAT HE W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W WAS
CARLY: HONEY, I'M FRESH OUT
OF STRAW.
A.J.: YOU SEEM TO BE FRESH
OUT OF A LOT OF THINGS.
YOU KNOW, CARLY, I --
I NEVER FIGURED YOU
FOR BROWNSTONE LIFE.
THERE'S SOMETHING DEPRESSINGLY
COMMUNAL ABOUT IT, ISN'T THERE?
YOU SEE, MYSELF, I ALWAYS
ENVISIONED YOU IN A HOUSE
ON A HILL, GLASS AND STEEL,
WITH SKYLIGHTS.
CARLY: WELL, THIS IS
TEMPORARY, THAT'S ALL.
A.J.: UH-HUH.
UNTIL SOMETHING MORE MAJESTIC
COMES ALONG, RIGHT?
FIRST RULE OF LIFE
ENHANCEMENT -- WHEN
YOUR SURROUNDINGS LACK SPLENDOR,
YOU ORDER IN.
HOLD THAT THOUGHT.
CARLY: WHAT IS THIS?
A.J.: PORTABLE SPLENDOR.
CARLY: OH.
WELL, THANKS FOR THE THOUGHT,
BUT I'M NOT FOR SALE.
SO WHY DON'T YOU TAKE THAT BOX
AND MAKE SURE THE LOCK CATCHES
ON YOUR WAY OUT.
KATHERINE: AS YOU CAN SEE,
I'M NOT ALONE.
NIKOLAS: YOU WILL BE UNLESS
YOU SEND HER AWAY.
EITHER SHE GOES OR I GO.
LAURA: LUCKY?
LUCKY: MOM, IS LULU IN BED?
LAURA: NO, SHE'S SPENDING
THE NIGHT NEXT DOOR.
LUCKY: GOOD.
THERE'S STUFF YOU AND I NEED
TO DEAL WITH, AND IT'S -- IT'S
BETTER IF WE DEAL ONE-ON-ONE.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TELL ME WHAT
I'M HERE ABOUT?
LAURA: WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME.
LUCKY: IN CASE I HAVEN'T BEEN
HIT BY THE GROUNDBREAKING NEWS,
YOU WANT TO KEEP ME IN THE DARK
A LITTLE LONGER.
OK.
I'LL SAVE YOU THE SUSPENSE, MOM.
I KNOW ABOUT STEFAN.
NIKOLAS' FATHER.
NOT STAVROS -- STEFAN.
IF WE HADN'T HAVE FOUND OUT
FROM AN OUTSIDE SOURCE,
WE -- WE'D NEVER KNOW FROM YOU,
RIGHT?
LAURA: I'M ASSUMING BY "WE,"
YOU MEAN YOU AND --
LUCKY: THE MYSTERY BROTHER
YOU FAILED TO MENTION
FOR A DECADE AND A HALF.
LAURA: PLEASE, LUCKY.
IF YOU'RE HERE TO BERATE ME,
I CAN'T TAKE IT TONIGHT.
LUCKY: BERATE YOU?
MOM, I'M WAY BEYOND THAT.
I'M THIS CLOSE TO BEING IN AWE.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE TOUGHER THAN
I AM BECAUSE, PERSONALLY,
I'D -- I'D SNAP FROM THE STRAIN.
HOW DO YOU DO IT?
YEAR AFTER YEAR, HOW DO YOU KEEP
FROM BREAKING?
ALL THIS CRAP YOU'RE CARRYING
AROUND.
YOUR WHOLE LIFE IS LIES.
JAX: YOU LOOK WELL-OILED
AND POLISHED.
LIFE'S BEEN GENEROUS TO YOU,
I SEE.
DRINK, LAUGH, AND BE MERRY.
TOAST TO YOUR BLINDLY DEVOTED
FRIENDS.
ALL YOU REALLY NEED NOW IS
A BAND FOR YOUR DANCE
ON BRENDA'S GRAVE.
SONNY: BRENDA DIDN'T HAVE
A GRAVE.
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT OF BRENDA.
I WAS CRAZY TO GIVE HER TO YOU.
JAX: "GIVE HER"?
SONNY: I THOUGHT YOU WOULD
TAKE CARE OF HER.
WHAT, ARE YOU -- ARE YOU JUST
PLAIN DUMB, OR DID YOU JUST LOSE
INTEREST?
IS THAT WHY YOU LET BRENDA DIE?
JAX: YOU BASTARD.
JERRY: LET IT --
ROBIN: STOP! STOP IT!
STOP IT.
IS THIS HOW YOU HONOR BRENDA?
YOU CAN'T CURE A COLD,
[ Sneezes ]
BUT YOU CAN SURE MANAGE THE
SYMPTOMS WITH DIMETAPP ELIXIR.
WITH THE POWER OF TWO
COLD FIGHTING INGREDIENTS...
TO RELIEVE CONGESTION
AND SNEEZING.
DIMETAPP:
WINTER'S A BLAST,
BUT TOUGH ON YOUR LIPS.
NEW FLAVA-CRAZE
TO THE RESCUE !
IT'S TOTALLY CHAPSTICK...
FOR SERIOUS LIP PROTECTION.
IN THREE RADICAL FRUIT FLAVORS.
NEW FLAVA-CRAZE.
PROTECTS LIKE CHAPSTICK,
TASTES LIKE FUN !
GOSH, YOU KNOW, I JUST
WENT TO USE THE PHONE.
AND YOU SAY
ONCE YOU GOT BACK
YOUR WIFE WAS GONE ?
YES, SIR.
HELLO !
WHAT ?
HAVE YOU CHECKED
THE HOT ENCHILADA ?
OH, NO ! MILLICENT
GETS TERRIBLE HEARTBURN.
NOT THIS TIME.
WHAT'S THAT ?
LOOKS LIKE THE REMAINS
OF AN INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPED
PEPCID AC CHEWABLE.
INTRODUCING PEPCID AC CHEWABLES.
THE FIRST CHEWABLE TO STOP
HEARTBURN BEFORE IT STARTS.
MILLICENT,
IS THAT YOU ?
START LIVING HEARTBURN FREE
WITH NEW PEPCID AC CHEWABLES.
ROBIN: YOU SAY THAT THERE'S
NOTHING LEFT OF BRENDA.
YOU, OF ALL PEOPLE, SHOULD KNOW
BETTER THAN THAT.
SHE'S IN HERE AND IN HERE.
SHE WILL ALWAYS BE WITH US
AS LONG AS THE PEOPLE THAT
SHE LOVES ARE.
WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT,
SONNY, SHE LOVED THIS MAN, OK?
SHE LOVED HIM.
HE MADE HER HAPPY AND STRONG.
YOU KNOW THAT SHE LOVED SONNY.
YOU KNOW SHE DID.
WHAT WOULD BRENDA DO IF SHE WAS
HERE?
IF SHE SAW THIS HATRED BETWEEN
YOU TWO?
LOOK, IF YOU CAN'T RESPECT EACH
OTHER, PLEASE JUST AT LEAST
RESPECT WHO BRENDA WAS.
IF YOU CAN'T BE KIND TO EACH
OTHER, JUST LEAVE EACH OTHER
IN PEACE.
JAX: DON'T EXPECT PEACE
WITH CORINTHOS IN TOWN.
SONNY: IF YOU WANT A PIECE
OF ME, COME ON OVER HERE.
WE'LL --
JAX: I WANT YOU TO DO WHAT
YOU DO BEST, SONNY.
SONNY: HMM?
JAX: DISAPPEAR.
I WANT YOU TO TOP YOUR VANISHING
ACT YOU STAGED IN 1997.
SONNY: HAVEN'T YOU LEARNED
YET?
YOU DON'T ALWAYS GET WHAT
YOU WANT.
JAX: WHEN YOU LEFT BRENDA
AT THE ALTAR, WITH A HOLE RIPPED
THROUGH HER HEART --
SONNY: AT LEAST I LEFT
HER ALIVE.
JAX: BARELY.
SONNY: OH, REALLY?
JAX: SHE WAS RAVAGED.
WHILE SHE WAS IN A MENTAL
HOSPITAL WITH HER WRISTS TIED
TO A BED, YOU WERE SLIDING UNDER
SOME DISTANT ROCK.
GO BACK TO THAT ROCK, SONNY.
GO HOME.
SONNY: HOME IS WHERE I MAKE
IT.
RIGHT NOW I'M MAKING IT RIGHT
HERE.
YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT,
YOU JUST STAY INSIDE
OR RELOCATE.
JASON: LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.
SONNY: I WANT TO GET A TABLE.
JASON: YOU SURE?
SONNY: I CAME FOR DINNER.
JASON: I KNOW.
SO DID ROBIN.
NOW SHE'S HURTING.
SHE'S GOING TO BE WAITING
FOR ANOTHER FIGHT, WHETHER IT
HAPPENS OR NOT.
THIS DINNER IS GOING TO BE LIKE
WORK.
JASON: YOU COMING?
ROBIN: IN A MINUTE.
JASON: WE'LL BE OUTSIDE.
ROBIN: YOU KNOW, YOU WERE
BOUND TO RUN INTO EACH OTHER.
I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE TOLD
YOU THAT SONNY WAS IN TOWN, SO
I'M SORRY.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS
THINKING.
JAX: YOU CAN'T AFFORD
TO THINK, ROBIN, OR YOU'D SEE
WHERE YOUR LIFE WAS HEADING.
SONNY AND JASON ALIGNED AGAIN?
ROBIN: JAX --
JAX: THE WRITING'S
ON THE WALL.
ROBIN: JAX, I'M FINE.
JAX: NO, YOU'RE NOT.
ROBIN: OK?
PLEASE DON'T DO THIS.
JAX: YOU NEVER WILL BE,
ROBIN.
IF YOU GET SUCKED BACK
INTO THEIR WAY OF LIFE,
INTO THEIR WORLD --
ROBIN: LOOK, I KNOW YOU CARE
ABOUT ME, OK?
BUT YOU GOT TO STOP DOING THIS.
JAX: EVERY MOMENT YOU SPEND
WITH SONNY AND JASON, IT TAKES
YOU FURTHER AWAY FROM THE LIFE
THAT YOU DESERVE.
ROBIN: JAX, I'M LEAVING NOW.
JAX: ROBIN -- ROBIN, PLEASE.
JUST LET THEM GO.
LET THEM GO WHEREVER THEY'RE
GOING.
WHEREVER IT IS, YOU DON'T BELONG
THERE.
YOU KNOW, STAY AND HAVE DINNER
WITH ME AND JERRY, AND THEN LET
US TAKE YOU HOME TO MAC'S.
ROBIN: IF BRENDA WAS OUTSIDE
WAITING FOR YOU, COULD ANYTHING
STOP YOU?
YOU WANT TO HELP ME OUT?
DON'T FIGHT WITH SONNY AGAIN.
YEAH, I KNOW THAT HE STARTED IT,
OK?
SOMEBODY HAS TO PULL BACK HERE.
JAX: WHAT?
JERRY: DID I SAY ANYTHING?
JAX: SOMETHING'S
ON YOUR MIND.
JERRY: I THOUGHT I WAS
THE LOOSE CANNON IN OUR FAMILY.
LOOKS LIKE MY ROLE HAS BEEN
USURPED.
CARLY: OOH, IT IS
STATE-OF-THE-ART.
A.J.: UH-HUH.
WHOOPS.
SO, SHALL I ORDER THAT -- THAT
STATIONERY?
CARLY: DON'T GET CARRIED
AWAY, HUH?
OH, WOW, COOL.
C.D.s?
A.J.: YEAH.
CARLY: WHAT HAVE WE GOT HERE?
JAZZ,
R&B, REGGAE.
HUH.
OPERA?
A.J.: DON'T RULE IT OUT.
CARLY: OH, YEAH, RIGHT.
YOU THOUGHT I'D ENJOY A LITTLE
VERDI?
A.J.: CARLY, OPERA IS A WAY
OF LIFE INVOLVING SABLE COATS
WITH SIGNIFICANT JEWELRY AND,
MOST OF ALL, THE RIGHT KIND
OF PEOPLE.
CARLY: YEAH, THE KIND
OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T MIND WAITING
FOUR HOURS FOR THE FAT LADY
TO SING.
A.J.: NO, THE ST. SWITHINS
SORT OF PEOPLE --
CARLY: LOOK --
A.J.: THE KIND OF PEOPLE
YOU'LL WANT MICHAEL TO KNOW.
CARLY: YOU KNOW HOW JASON
FEELS ABOUT THAT.
A.J.: JASON IS NOT MICHAEL'S
MOTHER.
CARLY: THAT'S TRUE.
A.J.: YES.
NOW, CARLY, YOU WILL BE HANDLING
THE CULTURAL END OF THINGS.
I MEAN, WHEN MICHAEL'S NOT
LEARNING ABOUT MOTORCYCLE
REPAIRS, HE'LL HAVE TIME
TO FOCUS ON THE FINER THINGS
IN LIFE.
YOU KNOW, I WAS 5 OR 6 WHEN
GRANDMOTHER INTRODUCED ME
TO THE OPERA.
CARLY: OH --
A.J.: "FIGARO."
YEAH, "FIGARO," I THINK IT WAS.
AND I GOT TO TELL YOU, I WAS
SO PROUD TO BE ESCORTING THIS
GRAND LADY.
I WANT MICHAEL TO EXPERIENCE
THAT VERY SAME THING.
CARLY: MEANING WHAT?
YOU SEE ME AS THE "GRAND LADY"?
A.J.: NOT YET.
BUT YOU -- YOU HAVE ALL
THE MAKINGS.
NIKOLAS: SO, SHALL I GO?
KATHERINE: NO.
HELENA: NO, FORGIVE ME.
I -- I SHOULD HAVE CALLED.
I -- I HAD NO IDEA YOU WOULD BE
HERE.
NO, THE LAST THING I --
KATHERINE: I THINK IT'S BEST
IF YOU GO.
HELENA: I QUITE AGREE.
I HAVE NO DESIRE TO INFLICT
MY COMPANY ON ANYONE WHO
DESPISES IT.
I'LL SPEAK TO YOU ANOTHER TIME.
KATHERINE: ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?
NIKOLAS: LOOK, I HATE THE WAY
I FEEL, OK?
I HATE THE THINGS THAT I'VE SAID
TO YOU.
I HATE HURTING YOU, BUT I DON'T
THINK I CAN STOP.
I HAVE THIS -- THIS
FREE-FLOATING HOSTILITY,
AND IT'S MISERABLE TO BE AROUND
ME SOMETIMES.
I'D UNDERSTAND IF YOU WANT
TO THROW ME OUT.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.
LAURA: DO YOU HONESTLY THINK
THAT YOU'RE IN A POSITION
TO JUDGE MY ENTIRE LIFE?
LUCKY: NO.
ONLY THE PART I'VE BEEN TOLD
SO FAR.
AND I GOT A QUEASY FEELING
THERE'S MORE I DON'T KNOW.
LAURA: THERE ISN'T.
LUCKY: WELL, NEVER MIND
THE FINE POINTS.
I MEAN, IT'S THE OVERALL PICTURE
THAT COUNTS.
YOU'RE LIKE THIS OPTICAL
ILLUSION.
I MEAN, YOU LOOK LIKE ONE THING,
BUT REALLY YOU'RE SOMETHING
ELSE.
ALL MY LIFE, YOU --
YOU SEEMED SO CLEAR
AND CLEAN,
LIKE SNOW
AFTER IT HAD JUST COME DOWN.
AND YOU LOOKED SO GREAT,
I'D JUST WANT TO PLOP MYSELF
IN IT, JUST SHAKE MY LIMBS
AROUND AND MAKE A SNOW ANGEL.
I'D BE SITTING THERE, LOOKING UP
AT THE SKY, SMILING, HUMMING.
ALL OF A SUDDEN -- SNAP--
YOU'RE SUCKED INTO COLD HELL.
I'M NOT MAKING SNOW ANGELS
ANYMORE.
YOU'RE GOING DOWN FOR THE THIRD
TIME.
SURPRISE, SURPRISE, THE GROUND
WASN'T SOLID.
YOU FELL THROUGH CRACKS
IN THE ICE.
LAURA: OH, LUCKY, I'M SORRY.
I KNOW EVERY KID WANTS
HIS PARENTS TO BE A SAFE PLACE.
AND I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW
DISILLUSIONED YOU MUST FEEL.
LUCKY: "DISILLUSIONED"?
THAT DOESN'T QUITE CUT IT, MOM.
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE
DROWNING?
DO YOU SIT AROUND AND PONDER
YOUR SHATTERED ILLUSIONS?
OR DO YOU SWIM LIKE HELL
FOR THE SHORE?
"GET ME OUT OF HERE" -- THAT'S
HOW I FELT.
THAT'S HOW I FELT EVERY TIME.
AND THAT'S EXACTLY HOW NIKOLAS
FELT WHEN HE FOUND OUT, WHICH IS
WHY HE LEFT WYNDEMERE AND BUNKED
WITH ME.
LAURA: HE WAS WITH YOU.
LUCKY: YEAH, WELL,
SEE, THERE'S THE PLUS SIDE.
BROTHERS UNITED BY SHOCKS
FROM THEIR PARENTS.
ANOTHER PLUS -- HEY, I'M FEELING
LUCKY.
I ACTUALLY KNOW WHO MY PARENTS
ARE --
BIOLOGICALLY SPEAKING.
I MEAN, THE REST IS PRETTY
FLUID.
LAURA: I LIED TO PROTECT
MY BABY.
LUCKY: WELL, WHAT ABOUT DAD'S
REACTION?
WHY DON'T YOU JUST ADMIT IT?
YOU LIED TO PROTECT YOU.

S.C. JOHNSON.
WE WORRY ABOUT THEM
RUNNING AROUND
BAREFOOT.
NEVER WEARING
A SWEATER.
BUT TOO MUCH
COLD MEDICINE,
IT NEVER
OCCURRED TO US...
NOW WE USE
TRIAMINIC.
WE CHOOSE
THE FORMULA
THAT'S RIGHT
FOR THEIR SYMPTOMS.
SO THERE'S NO CHANCE
OF SIDE EFFECTS
FROM UNNECESSARY
MEDICINE.
TRIAMINIC LETS YOU CHOOSE

LAURA: YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY
EASY WHEN YOU'RE YOUR AGE
TO PASS JUDGMENT ON ADULTS.
LUCKY: OH, DON'T MAKE THIS
ABOUT GROWING UP, MOM.
LAURA: LIFE SEEMS VERY
SIMPLE, LUCKY.
EVERYTHING LOOKS BLACK
AND WHITE, RIGHT AND WRONG,
GOOD OR BAD.
YOU LOOK AT THE ADULTS
AND YOU THINK, "HOW COULD
THEY HAVE MADE SUCH A MESS?
THEY MUST BE STUPID OR CORRUPT."
THOSE THINGS COULD NEVER HAPPEN
TO YOU.
RIGHT?
LUCKY: WELL, IT SEEMS TO ME
LIFE'S A LOT SIMPLER WHEN
YOU JUST TELL THE TRUTH.
LAURA: YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
BUT SOMETIMES SIMPLE ISN'T
ALWAYS POSSIBLE.
SOMETIMES IT ISN'T EVEN RIGHT
OR FAIR.
LIFE WILL TEACH YOU THAT, LUCKY.
LUCKY: WELL, I DON'T WANT ANY
PART OF ANY LIFE LESSONS THAT
TEACH ME IT'S BETTER TO LIE.
LAURA: NOBODY DOES.
THAT'S MY POINT.
DO YOU THINK I DID?
DO YOU THINK I WAS EAGER
TO ABANDON MY FIRST-BORN CHILD?
DO YOU THINK I GOT SOME KIND
OF A PERVERSE CHARGE OUT
OF PRETENDING THAT HE DIDN'T
EXIST FOR ALL OF THOSE YEARS?
YOU THINK THAT WHEN I THOUGHT
YOUR FATHER WAS DEAD AND I WAS
BEING HELD CAPTIVE BY STAVROS
AND HELENA THAT I WAS GLAD
THAT MY ONLY SOLACE CAME FROM --
LUCKY: OH, I DON'T WANT TO GO
THERE, MOM.
LAURA: WELL, I DIDN'T WANT
TO GO THERE EITHER!
YOU DON'T ALWAYS GET WHAT
YOU WANT.
THINGS HAPPEN IN LIFE.
YOU MAKE CHOICES.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
SOME OF THEM ARE BOUND TO BE
WRONG.
TAKE A LOOK AROUND HERE, OK?
IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED,
I'M PAYING FOR MY MISTAKES.
MY HUSBAND HAS LEFT ME.
ISN'T THAT ENOUGH?
OR SHOULD I BE BURNED
AT THE STAKE, LUCKY?
SHOULD I BE DRAWN AND QUARTERED
IN THE CENTER OF TOWN?
FOR GOD'S SAKES, I AM
YOUR MOTHER.
AND I PROMISE YOU, I HAVE LOVED
YOU SINCE THE MOMENT YOU WERE
CONCEIVED.
DOESN'T THAT COUNT FOR
SOMETHING?
OR AM I JUST THE SUM
OF MY MISTAKES?
KATHERINE: YOU'RE STILL
IN SHOCK.
NIKOLAS: I'M ALL OVER
THE PLACE.
I'M ANGRY, CONFUSED.
I'M SHUT DOWN.
KATHERINE: I OPENED MY MOUTH
ON A DESPERATE IMPULSE,
AND I BLEW YOUR LIFE APART.
COULD YOU EVER TRUST ME AGAIN?
NIKOLAS: I NEED SOMEONE
TO BELIEVE IN.
YOU SAY YOU CARE.
I NEED YOU TO PROVE IT TO ME.
I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW THAT
STEFAN'S MY FATHER UNTIL
I DECIDE IT'S TIME.
KATHERINE: YOU HAVE MY WORD,
IF THAT STILL MEANS ANYTHING
TO YOU.
I KNOW YOUR FEELINGS ARE
IN CHAOS, AND IT'S A VERY
CONFUSING TIME FOR YOU.
BUT WHATEVER YOU COME
TO BELIEVE, KNOW HOW DEAR
YOU ARE TO ME.
JAX: THANKS.
JERRY: SO, IS THIS
MY SELF-POSSESSED BROTHER WHO
CAN CUT DOWN HIS ENEMIES
WITH A GLANCE?
JAX: ALL RIGHT, IF YOU'RE
ABOUT TO CRITIQUE MY BEHAVIOR,
THEN I SUGGEST --
JERRY: WHOA.
ACTUALLY, I THOUGHT IT WAS
BRILLIANT.
WHEN HAVE I EVER DODGED A PUBLIC
BRAWL?
IT'S JUST THAT HAND-TO-HAND
COMBAT IS USUALLY MORE MY STYLE
THAN YOURS.
SO WHAT MADE YOU LET IT RIP?
JAX: WELL, YOU HEARD
CORINTHOS.
JERRY: ABOUT YOU KILLING
BRENDA?
THAT WAS STUPID AND BRUTAL
REMARK, THE SORT OF COMMENT
YOU NORMALLY WOULDN'T DEIGN
TO RESPOND TO.
JAX: IF BRENDA WERE STILL
ALIVE.
YOU KNOW, SHE ONLY HAD A FEW
YEARS ON THIS EARTH.
HOW MANY OF THOSE YEARS DID
CORINTHOS BURN?
HE USED HER.
AND WHEN HE WAS DONE, HE WAS
GONE.
SONNY'S VANITY MEANT MORE THAN
BRENDA'S LIFE.
NOW HERE HE IS, APPARENTLY
ON TOP OF THE WORLD.
HE PICKS UP HIS LIFE WHERE
HE LEFT IT, WHILE BRENDA'S IS
GONE FOR GOOD.
WHEN DOES JUSTICE KICK IN,
JERRY?
WHEN DOES SONNY PAY UP
FOR THE MISERY HE CAUSED
AND THE TIME HE STOLE?
JERRY: I KNOW.
JAX: WELL, IF HE'S SMART,
HE'LL STAY OUT OF MY WAY.
SONNY: DID I MISS THE PART
WHERE JAX BOUGHT THE
PORT CHARLES HOTEL?
HE THINKS HE HAS A RIGHT
TO DECIDE WHERE I GO?
ROBIN: SONNY, HE'S STILL
GRIEVING, YOU KNOW.
SONNY: OH, DON'T TALK TO ME
ABOUT JAX GRIEVING!
I'M --
I'M SORRY.
I'M NOT ANGRY WITH YOU.
I'M MAD AS HELL AT MYSELF.
JAX IS A SPOILED PUNK WHO GRABS
WHATEVER HE WANTS BECAUSE
HE THINKS HE'S ENTITLED.
EVERYBODY KEPT TELLING ME HE'S
THE SECOND COMING, BRENDA'S
GOD-GIVEN CHANCE AT A STRAIGHT
LIFE.
"OH, HE'LL GIVE HER A WONDERFUL
FUTURE."
WELL, WHERE'S THIS WONDERFUL
FUTURE?
ROBIN: IT WASN'T JAX'S FAULT.
SONNY: HE WAS SUPPOSED
TO PROTECT HER.
HE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PAYING
ATTENTION.
ROBIN: BRENDA'S MOTHER DROVE
HER OFF A CLIFF!
SONNY: OH, SHE WAS OUT
OF HER MIND, YEAH.
AND GOLDEN BOY GIVES
HER CARTE BLANCHE.
NO, NO, NO.
HE GOT DISTRACTED.
HE WAS LAZY.
HE TOOK AN IDIOT GAMBLE, AND NOW
BRENDA LOST!
ROBIN: SONNY --
SONNY: THAT'S IT!
ROBIN: BRENDA IS DEAD
BECAUSE HER CRAZY MOTHER DROVE
HER OFF A CLIFF.
IT WASN'T JAX'S FAULT, OK?
SONNY: DON'T DO THAT!
ROBIN: HE COULDN'T PROTECT
HER --
SONNY: DON'T DO THAT!
ROBIN: ANYMORE THAN YOU DID.
SONNY: ROBIN, DO NOT DO THAT!
IT WAS JAX'S FAULT!
IT WAS HIS JOB!
ROBIN: I --
JASON: I'M GOING TO HAVE
JOHNNY DRIVE YOU OVER TO MAC'S.
SONNY: WHY DON'T YOU TAKE
HER?
AREN'T YOU GOING TO SEE MICHAEL?
JASON: YEAH.
I'LL CALL CARLY, AND I'LL TELL
HER I'LL BE LATE.
SONNY: NO, MICHAEL NEEDS YOU.
I'M FINE.
I'M BETTER NOW.
ROBIN: I'LL STAY.
I THINK I'D LIKE TO.
SONNY: I'M OK.
JASON: IF HE HAS ASKS
YOU TO LEAVE, YOU SHOULD --
YOU SHOULD PROBABLY GO.
ROBIN: I'LL BE FINE.
JASON: I LOVE YOU.
SONNY: I'M SORRY I RUINED
YOUR NIGHT.
ROBIN: IT WAS YOUR NIGHT,
TOO.
SONNY: YEAH, I KNOW.
BUT YOU KNOW, WHAT HAPPENED
AT THE GRILL -- YOU KNOW,
IT'S --
I KNOW IT UPSETS YOU, AND I KNOW
THAT --
I'LL WORK ON NOT LETTING THAT
HAPPEN AGAIN.
ROBIN: I LOVE YOU NO MATTER
HOW YOU GET, OK?
SONNY: YEAH.
STEP INTO A CLEAN SHOWER
EVERY DAY
WITHOUT CLEANING
YOUR SHOWER AGAIN.
TRY TILEX FRESH SHOWER.
AFTER YOUR SHOWER,
SPRAY A LIGHT MIST...
DON'T SCRUB OR RINSE.
TRY TILEX FRESH SHOWER...
AND YOU'LL NEVER HAVE TO CLEAN
YOUR SHOWER AGAIN.
s|xL
ALL PARENTS Y GOOD NIGHT
IN THE SAME LANGUAGE.
AND WHEN YOUR CHILD HAS A COLD,
HE NEEDS THE ADDED TOUCH
OF VICKS VAPORUB.
YOUR TOUCH RELEASES MEDICATED
VAPORS THAT QUICKLY RELIEVE
CONGESTION AND CALM COUGHING.
BECAUSE..

SONNY: PACKED ALREADY?
ROBIN: MM-HMM.
PACK PRETTY LIGHT THESE DAYS.
MY UNCLE MAC'S USED TO ME
SHOWING UP.
SONNY: I'M SORRY FOR RUNNING
YOU OFF.
ROBIN: NO, IT'S OK.
I UNDERSTAND YOU NEED TIME
BY YOURSELF.
BUT I AM GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF YOUR REMORSE AND TRY
TO EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO YOU.
SONNY: SWEETHEART, I KNOW
WHERE YOU'RE GOING.
YOU DON'T WANT TO GO THERE.
ROBIN: LISTEN.
JAX TREASURED BRENDA.
HE WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING
FOR HER.
ANYTHING.
HE WOULD HAVE DIED FOR HER.
SONNY: YOU KNOW,
DON'T, PLEASE.
I MEAN, YOU --
I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT
THE WONDERFULNESS OF JASPER
JACKS BECAUSE WHEN YOU -- WHEN
YOU START, I SHUT DOWN, OK?
AND I DON'T WANT TO SIT HERE
AND PRETEND BECAUSE THEN I'D BE
CONNING YOU.
COME ON, YOU'RE GOING TO BE
LATE.
ROBIN: YOU KNOW, I THINK
I CHANGED MY MIND.
SONNY: I'M -- I'M OK TO BE
BY MYSELF.
YEAH, IT'S DARK IN MY HEAD
AND I'M GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL
WITH THAT --
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL
WITH THAT FOR A LONG, LONG TIME.
I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW,
PASS BRENDA IN AN AIRPORT.
I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO CATCH
A GLIMPSE OF HER
IN A CROWD OR HEAR HER LAUGHTER
ON THE STREET SOMEWHERE.
I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO PICK UP
A MAGAZINE AND SEE HOW SHE'S
DOING OR HEAR HER VOICE
ON A TV SPOT.
BUT IT'S A PROCESS,
AND I JUST -- I JUST NEED
A LITTLE SPACE.
ROBIN: LUCKY UNCLE MAC.
I'LL BE THERE TO MAKE PANCAKES
FOR HIM IN THE MORNING.
SONNY: I LOVE HAVING
YOU AROUND.
YOU KNOW THAT, DON'T YOU?
ROBIN: YEAH.
SONNY: YOU'RE THE BEST THING.
YOU AND JASON --
YOU'RE THE BEST THING ABOUT
MY LIFE.
ROBIN: BYE.
SONNY: BYE.
[DOOR CLOSES]
SONNY: BOY.
CARLY: YOU'RE NOT DONE YET?
A.J.: I'M GETTING THERE.
CARLY: WELL, JEEZ,
IT'S TAKING FOREVER.
A.J.: SO WHAT?
ARE YOU ENTERTAINING?
A SOIREE FOR THE TOP
OF THE A-LIST?
CARLY: IF I WAS GETTING READY
FOR A PARTY, YOU'D BE FIRED
BY NOW.
A.J.: GOOD HELP IS HARD
TO FIND, ESPECIALLY AT THESE
PRICES.
YOU KNOW SOMETHING?
YOU DON'T NEED A STEREO SYSTEM
FOR A PARTY.
YOU COULD HIRE YOUR OWN STRING
QUARTET.
CARLY: OH, YEAH,
RIGHT, OR SOME DRUID PRIESTS
TO CHANT.
A.J.: OK, A BAND.
A BAND OF YOUR CHOICE, BUT MAKE
IT TASTEFUL, PLEASE.
AND NO OFFENSE, BUT THAT'S NOT
WHAT YOU'RE WEARING.
CARLY: BACKLESS VELVET.
BLACK.
A.J.: NOT TOO REVEALING.
CARLY: JUST REVEALING ENOUGH.
A.J.: FOR A GRAND LADY SUCH
AS YOURSELF.
YOU'RE NOT A ROCK STAR
OR A TABLOID QUEEN.
CARLY: YOU ARE DELIBERATELY
TAKING FOREVER SO YOU CAN STAY
AND MINGLE WITH MY GUESTS.
A.J.: I HAVE MY TUXEDO
IN MY TOOLBOX.
CARLY: WELL, THEN, IT MUST BE
TOO WRINKLED TO WEAR.
A.J.: SPANDEX.
CARLY: SPANDEX IS FROWNED
UPON.
A.J.: OOH, YOU'RE GOOD
AT THIS.
CARLY: YEAH.
UNLIKE YOU, I CATCH ON FAST.
ARE YOU SURE YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE DOING THERE?
A.J.: YEAH.
[DOOR OPENS and CLOSES]
CARLY: OH, THAT MUST JASON.
SO YOU CAN TELL HIM WHAT A GRAND
LADY I'M GOING TO BE.
WE'RE IN HERE!
HI.
LAURA: LUCKY, PLEASE,
LISTEN TO ME.
IT WAS AS MUCH STEFAN'S DECISION
AS IT WAS MINE BECAUSE, YOU SEE,
WE BOTH KNEW THAT HELE WOULD
STOP AT NOTHING TO PUNISH HIM
AND ME AND NIKOLAS FOR BEING
OURS.
LUCKY: I GET IT.
I GET IT, OK?
LAURA: DO YOU?
DO YOU REALLY GET IT, THOUGH?
LUCKY: AS MUCH AS I CAN.
I'M NOT YOU, OK?
I CAN'T SPEND MY WHOLE LIFE
PRETENDING.
LAURA: IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK
OF ME, LUCKY?
THAT I'VE JUST SPENT MY WHOLE
LIFE PRETENDING, THAT YOU CAN'T
TRUST ANYTHING I SAY?
LUCKY: NOT COMPLETELY, NO.
AND I DON'T SAY THAT TO HURT
YOU.
I JUST -- I DON'T LIE TO PEOPLE
I LOVE.
LAURA: AND I HOPE THAT
YOU NEVER HAVE TO.
BUT I HOPE THAT YOUR LIFE IS
THAT CHAOS-FREE.
YOU KNOW MY WISH FOR YOU, LUCKY?
I HOPE THAT YOU CAN KEEP THIS
CLARITY AND PURITY THAT YOU HAVE
FOREVER AND THAT YOU FIND
PERFECT TRUST WITH SOMEONE.
NOT MANY PEOPLE DO.
BUT I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT
YOU WILL, PARTLY BECAUSE
YOU WANT IT SO BADLY.
AND I WANT YOU TO HAVE
THE HAPPINESS THAT YOU DESERVE.
IF THERE WAS ANY WAY AT ALL THAT
I COULD DELIVER IT TO
YOU OR NIKOLAS OR LESLEY LU,
THERE ISN'T MUCH THAT I WOULDN'T
DO FOR MY CHILDREN.
LUCKY: YOU DON'T HAVE
TO CONVINCE ME.
LAURA: OK.
NO MATTER HOW MUCH DISTANCE
YOU PUT BETWEEN US,
LUCKY, YOU ARE RIGHT HERE
WITH ME EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY
DAY.
LUCKY: I KNOW THAT ABOUT YOU.
LAURA: GOOD.
LUCKY: BUT I KEEP FINDING
STUFF OUT, MOM.
AND IT'S LIKE THERE'S NO END.
LAURA: IF I WERE TO TELL
YOU THAT THIS IS THE END OF IT,
WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME?
SO --
WELL, WHAT CAN I SAY,
THEN, THAT YOU WILL BELIEVE?
WHAT IS IT THAT -- WHAT IS IT
THAT YOU NEED TO HEAR?
LUCKY: JUST THE TRUTH.
THE TRUTH, MOM.
THAT'S IT.
LAURA: YOU KNOW IT.
YOU KNOW IT ALL NOW.
THERE ISN'T ANY MORE.
DO YOU BELIEVE ME?
LUCKY: I DON'T KNOW.
LAURA: OH, GOD.
WAIT A MINUTE, PLEASE.
WHERE ARE WE NOW?
I MEAN, HOW MUCH GROUND HAVE
WE LOST THIS TIME?
AM I THE ENEMY AGAIN, OR AM
I SOMEBODY YOU'RE GOING
TO AVOID?
LUCKY: I DON'T KNOW.
IF THE SAME COLD...
KEEPS GOING AROUND YOUR FAMILY,
TRY LYSOL DISINFECTANT SPRAY.
IT KILLS THE COLD VIRUS...
WHERE IT'S JUST WAITING
TO BE PICKED UP.
SURE, LYSOL DEODORIZES.
BUT IT ALSO DISINFECTS.
LYSOL SPRAY HELPS PROTECT.
YOU HAVE OUR WORD ON IT.
( western music
playing throughout )
EVEN THE TOUGHEST GREASY STAINS
LIKE SPAGHETTI SAUCE
ARE NO MATCH
FOR RESOLVE CARPET CLEANER.
NO WONDER IT'S NUMBER ONE.
THAT'S OKAY, COWBOY.
RESOLVE GETS YOU OUT
OF THE TOUGHEST SPOTS.
AS IF SPLATTERS AND
SKATE TRACKS WEREN'T ENOUGH,
LOOK AT WHAT THE CAT
JUST DRAGGED IN.
FOR YOUR MULTITUDE
OF CLEANING DILEMMAS,
LYSOL DEODORIZING CLEANER...
UNSTICKS STICKY MESSES,
POWERS OUT GREASY GRIME...
AND CLOBBERS GERMS
LIKE STAPH TO BOOT.
LYSOL DEODORIZING CLEANER.
TILL YOU HAVE OUR WORD ON IT,
YOU CAN'T CALL IT CLEAN.
IF YOU THINK
ALL DRAIN CLEANERS ARE THE SAME,
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
THE PROBLEM WITH LIQUID PLUMR
IS THAT IT ONLY CLEANS HERE.
SO CLOGS KEEP COMING BACK.
THAT'S WHY WE INVENTED
NEW DRANO FOAMER.
IT EXPANDS,
FILLING YOUR ENTIRE PIPE
AND SCRUBS IT CLEAN,
GETTING THE GUNK LIQUID PLUMR
LEAVES BEHIND,
SO DRAINS
STAY CLEAR LONGER.
NEW DRANO FOAMER.
S.C. JOHNSON.
HEY, PARKAY,
WHAT'S THE WORD ?
BETTER.
- BETTER ? AREN'T YOU
SUPPOSED TO SAY, "BUTTER" ?
- BETTER.
BUTTER.
BETTER.
LOOK AT HOW YOU MELT.
JUST LIKE BUTTER.
MMM. YOU REALLY DO
TASTE BETTER.
BUTTER !
THE FLAVOR
SAYS--
BUTTER.
[ Giggling ]
AND MY CUSHY RIPPLES
LEAVE YOU FEELING...
FEELING CLEANER
IS THE BOTTOM LINE.
A.J.: OK, HERE WE GO AGAIN,
YOU WITH YOUR STEELY-EYED STARE.
NEXT YOU'LL THREATEN ME
WITH BODILY HARM UNLESS I VACATE
THE PREMISES IMMEDIATELY.
LOOK, AREN'T YOU BORED WITH THIS
ROUTINE YET?
HUH?
LET'S MIX IT UP A LITTLE BIT,
SHALL WE?
WHY DON'T YOU ASK ME WHAT I'M
DOING SO I CAN TELL YOU --
JASON: I CAN SEE WHAT YOU'RE
DOING.
A.J.: THERE'S NOTHING HIDDEN,
NO KIDNAPPING MECHANISMS.
CAN'T BE ACTIVATED IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT TO ABDUCT SLEEPING
BABIES FROM THEIR CRIBS.
CARLY: AS A MATTER OF FACT,
MICHAEL HAS BEEN UPSTAIRS
THE WHOLE TIME.
A.J. NEVER ASKED TO SEE HIM,
AND I WOULDN'T HAVE LET HIM
IF HE HAD.
A.J.: I DELIBERATELY WAITED
UNTIL AFTER MICHAEL WENT TO BED
SO THAT I WOULDN'T BE ACCUSED
OF ANYTHING.
JASON: DO YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE DOING?
A.J.: YES, AS A MATTER
OF FACT.
JASON: THEN YOU REALIZE
YOU'RE ATTACHING THAT WHOLE
THING BACKWARDS.
CARLY: OH, GOODY.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT WAS REALLY, REALLY NICE
OF YOU TO BRING ME THIS, BUT WHY
DON'T YOU LET JASON TAKE OVER.
A.J.: WHAT? I CAN HANDLE IT.
JASON: WELL, IT'LL GO A LOT
FASTER IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT
YOU'RE DOING, THAT IS,
IF YOU WANT TO GET DONE.
PERSONALLY, I DON'T CARE HOW
LONG IT TAKES YOU --
A.J.: AS LONG AS I FINISH
THE JOB ON THE STOOP, RIGHT?
JASON: AS LONG AS MICHAEL IS
NOT IN THE ROOM.
THIS ISN'T MY HOUSE.
CARLY SEES WHO SHE WANTS.
CARLY: WHY DON'T YOU NOT PUSH
YOUR LUCK.
A.J.: ME, PUSH?
HA.
NEVER LET IT BE SAID.
LET ME KNOW HOW YOU LIKE IT.
CARLY: I ACTUALLY LIKE IT
ALREADY.
IT LOOKS POWERFUL.
AND I CAN'T WAIT TO BLAST SOME
LIFE INTO THIS HOUSE.
A.J.: ENJOY.
JASON.
CARLY: JASON?
THANK YOU.
JASON: FOR WHAT?
CARLY: FOR NOT GETTING MAD
IN FRONT OF A.J.
HE SHOWED UP OUT OF THE BLUE
LIKE HE ALWAYS DOES,
AND HE INSISTED ON HOOKING THIS
THING UP.
JASON: A.J. CAN BRING
YOU A PRESENT EVERY DAY AS LONG
AS HE'S CLEAR THAT IT'S NOT
A TRADE.
CARLY, I DON'T CARE IF YOU MILK
GIFTS FROM A.J.
JUST LET HIM KNOW THAT HE CANNOT
BUY ACCESS TO MICHAEL.
CARLY: I DID.
I ALWAYS DO.
DO YOU MIND HOOKING THIS THING
UP?
YOU KNOW WHAT?
NO, NEVER MIND.
DON'T BECAUSE YOU'RE TIRED,
IT'S LATE.
IT DOESN'T MATTER.
I'LL DO IT.
I CAN FIGURE IT OUT.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
EVERYTHING OK AT THE PENTHOUSE?
JASON: I THOUGHT ABOUT
STICKING AROUND, BUT, YOU KNOW,
SONNY'S A MAN AND MICHAEL'S
A BABY.
THIS IS WHERE I NEED TO BE.
STEFAN: I CAUGHT THE LAUNCH
AS SOON AS WE HUNG UP.
WHAT'S HAPPENED?
LAURA: MY WHOLE LIFE HAS JUST
COMPLETELY UNRAVELED.
IT DIDN'T JUST HAPPEN TONIGHT.
IT'S TAKEN MANY, MANY YEARS.
YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT THAT I WAS
HOLDING EVERYTHING TOGETHER
UNTIL I TOOK A LOOK AROUND
AND I REALIZED THAT NOBODY WAS
HERE.
YOU KNOW, MY FAMILY WAS ALWAYS
EVERYTHING TO ME.
IT WAS MY WHOLE LIFE.
BUT I DESTROYED IT, AND I DON'T
EVEN KNOW HOW OR WHEN, BUT I --
I DID.
ELIZABETH: YOU KNOW, I CAN
HEAR YOU THINKING, BUT I CAN'T
MAKE OUT THE EXACT WORDS.
LUCKY: I'M SORRY.
MISSING IN ACTION AGAIN, RIGHT?
ELIZABETH: WELL,
WHEREVER YOU ARE, DO YOU WANT
SOME COMPANY, OR IS IT A PRIVATE
THING?
LUCKY: I SAW MY MOM.
ELIZABETH: ON PURPOSE?
LUCKY: I NEEDED TO HEAR
HER SIDE.
ELIZABETH: HOW'D IT GO?
LUCKY: WHEN I'M OLDER --
WHATEVER THAT MEANS -- WHEN I'M
SOME AGE LIKE 25, I'LL FIGURE
OUT THAT LIFE BASICALLY SUCKS
AND MOST OF THE CHOICES ARE BAD
ONES.
ELIZABETH: SHE SAID THAT?
LUCKY: ARE YOU KIDDING?
MY MOTHER?
SHE -- SHE MADE IT SOUND LIKE
LYING WAS NECESSARY.
IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE, YOU LIE
TO KEEP THEM HAPPY, TO KEEP THEM
SAFE.
YOU LIE TO MAKE SURE THE WORLD
KEEPS SPINNING.
AND SHE HOPES MY LIFE DEFIES
THE ODDS.
IT WON'T.
BUT SHE HOPES SO.
SHE HOPES I FIND THE PERFECT
LOVE, THE KIND THAT DOESN'T
EXIST.
ELIZABETH: SOUNDS SORT
OF DEPRESSING.
LUCKY: THANK YOU.
AND THE SICK THING IS
SHE DOESN'T EVEN SEE IT.
ELIZABETH: WELL,
MAYBE YOUR MOM'S JUST IN A BAD
PLACE RIGHT NOW.
LUCKY: A VERY BAD PLACE --
HER LIFE.
ELIZABETH: WELL, YOU KNOW,
LUCKY, SHE'S KIND OF HAD IT
TOUGH LATELY.
MAYBE YOU SHOULD GIVE
HER A BREAK.
LUCKY: IT'S LIKE SHE GAVE UP
ON THE BASICS.
YOU CAN'T MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY.
WHY DIDN'T SHE FIGURE THAT OUT?
YOU FIND WHAT YOU WANT,
AND YOU STICK TO IT.
YOU DECIDE WHAT'S IMPORTANT
AND WHO.
AND FOR ME, IT'S YOU.
THAT'S NOT CONFUSING
OR COMPLICATED.
EVERYTHING ELSE IS SECONDARY.
ELIZABETH: I FEEL THE SAME
WAY.
ABOUT YOU, I MEAN.
LUCKY: WELL, THIS WORKS,
DOESN'T IT?
ELIZABETH: I THINK SO.
( wind blowing,
customer gasping )
MAY I TAKE
YOUR ORDER, PLEASE?
I'LL HAVE CH-CH-CH...
EXCUSE ME?
I'LL HAVE CH-CH-CH...

TONIGHT, WHILE YOU WERE OUT,
YOUR KIDS WERE IN
THE TRUSTED CARE
OF BETTY THE BABYSITTER.
YOU KNOW THEY ATE WELL
BECAUSE BETTY MADE
NEW SWANSON BONELESS
FRIED CHICKEN DINNERS.
YOUR KIDS ATE
THE BROWNIES FIRST.
THEY DEVOURED
THE TENDER ALL WHITE MEAT
IN THE CRISPY COATING
WITH LESS THAN PERFECT
TABLE MANNERS,
AND THEY FINISHED
THEIR MASHED POTATOES
WITH THEIR FINGERS.
OH, LIKE WHEN
YOU WERE A KID,
YOU DIDN'T EAT
A SWANSON DINNER
THE SAME WAY
WITH JOAN THE BABYSITTER.

THAT WAS NOT SOMETHING
I WOULD HAVE WANTED TO DO.
BUT NOW I USE ALWAYS
WITH NEW FLEXI WINGS...
THAT HELP PROTECT ME
FROM SIDE TO SIDE.

AND FLEX WHEN I MOVE.
BESIDES, MY UNDERWEAR ARE
MORE PROTECTED THAN THEY WERE

AND THE WINGS
ON MY PAD STAY IN PLACE
SO MUCH BETTER THAN BEFORE,
WHETHER I'M RUNNING UPHILL
OR I'M RUNNING DOWNHILL--
I LOVE RUNNING DOWNHILL.
ALWAYS WITH NEW FLEXI WINGS--
BETTER PROTECTION.
