JAX: WHY NOT OFFER THE DEAL
TO NED?
ALEXIS: YOU'RE THE EXPERT
IN HOSTILE TAKEOVERS.
NIKOLAS: YOU'LL TELL
THE WORLD I'M STEFAN CASSADINE'S
SON UNLESS I WHAT?
KATHERINE: I HAVE
NO INTENTION OF TELLING ANYONE.
A.J.: I WANT THIS TO END
QUICKLY AND QUIETLY
FOR MICHAEL'S SAKE.
CARLY: I'M NOT GOING
TO RELAX, JASON, UNTIL HE'S OUT
OF THE COUNTRY AND SAFE
FROM A.J.
JASON: WE'LL BE WAITING.

KATHERINE: EXCUSE ME.
I AM SUPPOSED TO MEET
A GENTLEMAN HERE -- DARK HAIR,
DARK BEARD, AND DARK
PERSONALITY.
BARTENDER: SOUNDS LIKE
MR. CASSADINE.
KATHERINE: OH, YOU CERTAINLY
KNOW YOUR CUSTOMERS.
BARTENDER: WELL, I HAVEN'T
SEEN HIM YET, BUT I'LL KEEP
MY EYES OPEN.
KATHERINE: PLEASE DO.
IN THE MEANTIME, I WILL TAKE
A GIN MARTINI, VERY DRY,
THREE OLIVES.
BARTENDER: COMING RIGHT UP.
KATHERINE: THANK YOU.
ALEXIS: YOU'RE A VERY BRAVE
WOMAN.
KATHERINE: I'VE HAD TO BE.
ALEXIS: I MEANT FOR ORDERING
THE MARTINI.
DIDN'T LAURA TOSS ONE
IN YOUR FACE RECENTLY?
KATHERINE: YOU WERE HERE?
ALEXIS: HMM.
DID SHE DO THAT ON GENERAL
PRINCIPLE, OR WAS IT
ON SOMETHING SPECIFIC?
KATHERINE: I BELIEVE IT WAS
SOME SORT OF MATING RITUAL
BETWEEN STEFAN AND LAURA --
CREATE DRAMA, BEGUILE THE MALE.
ALL VULTURES DO IT.
IT'S IN THEIR BLOOD.
BARTENDER: HERE YOU GO.
ENJOY.
KATHERINE: THANK YOU.
ALEXIS: NOTHING FOR ME,
THANK YOU.
KATHERINE: IF MY COMMENTS
ABOUT STEFAN AND LAURA OFFENDED
YOU -- TOUGH.
THEIR COURTSHIP IS REVOLTING,
AND YOU KNOW IT.
ALEXIS: WELL, WHAT CAN
YOU SAY?
THE MAN'S TASTE IS ATROCIOUS.
KATHERINE: LIKE ALMOST
EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM.
HOWEVER, I WILL GIVE CREDIT
WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.
AND YOU DID TRY TO WARN ME,
BUT I WAS TOO STUBBORN
TO LISTEN.
ALEXIS: SOME PEOPLE LEARN
THE HARD WAY.
KATHERINE: AND SOME PEOPLE
NEVER LEARN AT ALL.
WHICH REMINDS ME -- HAVE
YOU GIVEN NED A TIME LIMIT
ON THIS RELATIONSHIP, OR ARE
YOU JUST GOING TO LET HIM LEAD
YOU ON FOREVER?
ALEXIS: ARE YOU JEALOUS,
KATHERINE?
KATHERINE: OF WHAT?
ALEXIS: THAT SOME PEOPLE
DON'T HAVE TO DRINK ALONE.
A.J.: THAT FOR ME?
EMILY: UH, YEAH.
IT JUST CAME IN THE MAIL.
A.J.: THANKS.
EMILY: I NOTICE IT'S
FROM YOUR LAWYER.
A.J.: THAT'S RIGHT.
EMILY: DO YOU MIND TELLING ME
WHAT IT IS?
A.J.: IT'S JUST SOME OFFICIAL
PAPERS, NOTHING THAT CONCERNS
YOU.
EMILY: IT'S ABOUT MICHAEL,
ISN'T IT?
A.J.: HEY, LOOK, DON'T GET
UPSET.
OK, EVERYTHING'S ALL RIGHT.
EMILY: NO, IT ISN'T.
YOU AND GRANDFATHER ARE TRYING
TO TAKE MICHAEL AWAY FROM JASON.
A.J.: OK, IT'S OBVIOUS THAT
YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON,
BUT BELIEVE ME, WE'RE TRYING
TO END THIS AS QUICK
AS POSSIBLE.
EMILY: TELL ME WHAT THAT
PAPER IS, A.J.
I WANT TO KNOW.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
JOHNNY: MIKE CORBIN.
MIKE: THANKS, JOHNNY.
HEY, I WON'T DISTURB YOU.
I KNOW YOU GOT A LOT OF BEANS
TO COUNT.
SONNY: IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE
A COFFEE JOKE?
MIKE: YEAH.
HEY, I WAS HOPING.
SO LISTEN, IS JASON HERE?
I NEED TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT SOME
REPAIRS IN THE MOTORCYCLE SHOP.
SONNY: HE'S GONE.
MIKE: IS MICHAEL UPSTAIRS?
MAYBE I CAN SQUEEZE IN A LITTLE
VISIT WITH MY GODSON.
SONNY: HE LEFT, TOO.
MIKE: WELL, DID JASON TAKE
HIM OUT?
BECAUSE IF THEY JUST LEFT, I CAN
CATCH UP.
SONNY: YOU KNOW,
MIKE, THIS MIGHT COME AS A SHOCK
TO YOU, BUT IT'S NOT MY JOB
IN LIFE TO ANSWER ALL
YOUR QUESTIONS.
THERE'S THE DOOR.
MIKE: ALL RIGHT,
SONNY, TELL ME -- WHAT'S WRONG?
BOBBIE: HEY, I KNOW YOU HAD
OTHER PLANS.
I HOPE YOU WERE ABLE
TO RESCHEDULE.
CARLY: THAT WAS NOT
A PROBLEM.
WELL, I REALLY WANTED TO BE HERE
FOR YOU TODAY, AND
I DIDN'T WANT ANYTHING TO GET
IN THE WAY OF THAT.
BOBBIE: CARLY, I WANT
YOU TO KNOW THAT MAKING THAT
PHONE CALL TO YOU WAS NOT
AN EASY THING FOR ME.
CARLY: WHY NOT?
BOBBIE: WELL, BECAUSE ASKING
FOR HELP -- ESPECIALLY
IN TEARS --
IT PUTS A PERSON IN A VERY
VULNERABLE POSITION.
AND UP UNTIL TODAY,
IT'S NOT A PLACE I WANTED TO BE
WITH YOU.
CARLY: I THOUGHT WE WERE
GETTING CLOSER.
BOBBIE: WE ARE GETTING
CLOSER.
BUT STILL, I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN
HOLDING SOMETHING BACK
BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF GETTING
HURT BY YOU AGAIN.
CARLY: WHAT CHANGED
YOUR MIND?
BOBBIE: I SAT BY THE PHONE,
AND I SUDDENLY REALIZED THAT
YOU ARE THE ONLY PERSON THAT
I WANTED TO HELP ME THROUGH
THIS.
AND SO I DECIDED TO TAKE
A CHANCE.
CARLY: THANK YOU.
BOBBIE: MAYBE RUBY'S PASSING
AWAY HAS SOMETHING TO DO
WITH IT, BUT RIGHT NOW I FEEL
CLOSER TO YOU THAN I EVER HAVE
BEFORE.
AND IN THE DAYS AND THE YEARS
AHEAD, I WOULD LIKE US TO BE
ABLE TO BUILD ON THAT FEELING.
I WOULD LIKE US TO BE BETTER
FRIENDS THAN WE EVER THOUGHT
POSSIBLE.
CARLY: MAMA, I AM SO SORRY.
FOR THE FINEST CARE
YOU'LL EVER KNOW...
COME TO WHERE THE ALOES GROW.
IMPROVED HUGGIES
SUPREME DIAPERS.
THEY'VE GOT ALOE AND A CORE
THAT'S SO MUCH MORE ABSORBENT...
THE LEAKAGE PROTECTION
IS TRULY OUTSTANDING.
IMPROVED HUGGIES SUPREME.
LEAKAGE PROTECTION AND ALOE TOO.
THE ULTIMATE IN CARE FOR YOU.
HERSHEY'S TASTETATIONS.
WHEN HERSHEY
MAKES A HARD CANDY,
IT'S HARD TO RESIST.
HERSHEY'S TASTETATIONS.
KEEP IT GOING.
O.K., THAT'S ENOUGH.
BAYER CAN RELIEVE JOINT
INFLAMMATION AND STIFFNESS.
TYLENOL CAN'T.
AND TAKEN REGULARLY,
BAYER CAN HELP
SAVE YOUR LIFE.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR.

EYES OFF OF YOU ü
IF YOU THINK THE
CAVALIER LOOKS GOOD,
WAIT UNTIL YOU KNOW IT CAN GO
UP TO 100,000 MILES BEFORE ITS
FIRST SCHEDULED TUNE-UP.
CHEVY CAVALIER. THE MORE
YOU KNOW, THE BETTER IT LOOKS.
GENUINE CHEVROLET.
LAST WEEK
PRICE-CONSCIOUS SHOPPERS...
WERE GIVEN THIS
MYSTERY DETERGENT TO TRY.
THEY HAD NO IDEA IT WAS GAIN.
SURPRISE !
WHAT'S YOUR NAME ?
TRACY JONES.
DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING
YOU'VE WASHED IN THIS ?
MY SON'S SOCKS.
I LIKE HOW IT GETS
THE CLOTHES WHITE.
AND MY DAUGHTER--
HOLD ON TO IT AND HUGS IT...
AND SMELLS IT AND SAID,
"MOM, IT SMELLS GOOD."
SMELLS GREAT.
SMELL IT WITH ME.
YOU READY ?
OH, YES !
WONDER WHAT'S IN THIS ?
DOES ALL THAT ?
YES !
GAIN ! YES !
HEY !
SO YOU'RE SURE
YOU'RE GONNA SWITCH ?
I WILL SWITCH.
FRESH SCENT REMIND YOU
OF ANYTHING ?
YEAH, MY MOM WASHING MY CLOTHES.
SONNY: YOU WANT TO KNOW
WHAT'S WRONG?
I THOUGHT I WENT INTO BUSINESS
WITH ONE PARTNER.
NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN, I GOT TWO.
MIKE: WHO, ME?
COME ON, I'M EXCITED FOR YOU.
I WANT TO HELP.
SONNY: THEN LEAVE ME ALONE
AND TAKE YOUR GREAT COFFEE
MANIFESTO WITH YOU.
HERE.
MIKE: "CORINTHOS-MORGAN
IMPORTS."
CONGRATULATIONS.
TELL JASON THE SAME.
SONNY: YEAH.
NEXT TIME I SEE HIM, THAT'LL BE
THE FIRST THING I TELL HIM, OK?
THANKS.
MIKE: COME ON, SONNY.
SONNY: WHAT?
MIKE: THE TRUTH.
ARE THE QUARTERMAINES MAKING
ANOTHER RUN AT MICHAEL?
YOU TOLD ME THAT JASON WAS
FIGHTING THEM ABOUT CUSTODY.
NOW, AT LEAST TELL ME
IF MY GODSON IS OK.
SONNY: HE'S FINE.
BUT THERE'S A CHANCE JASON COULD
LOSE HIM.
MIKE: TO THE QUARTERMAINES?
HOW?
SONNY: JASON ISN'T MICHAEL'S
BIOLOGICAL FATHER.
MIKE: WHO IS?
SONNY: A.J.
CARLY: YOU KNOW,
IT SEEMS LIKE FROM THE MINUTE
I GOT TO PORT CHARLES, ALL I DID
WAS CAUSE MISERY FOR EVERYBODY
AROUND ME.
AND NOW RUBY LEAVES ME THIS
LETTER AND THIS NECKLACE,
AND YOU TELL ME THAT YOU FEEL
CLOSER TO ME THAN YOU EVER HAVE.
THAT'S WHY I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I S
BECAUSE I'M AN IDIOT.
I MADE EVERYBODY WAIT
FOR SOMETHING THAT WE MIGHT HAVE
HAD A LONG TIME AGO.
BOBBIE: WELL, MAYBE YOU WERE
AFRAID YOU WOULD BE REJECTED,
SO YOU DECIDED TO HURT ME FIRST.
AND YOU WERE WRONG TO DO THAT,
BUT IT'S SOMETHING YOU HAD
TO LEARN FOR YOURSELF.
CARLY: YOU KNOW, THIS WAS
A LOT EASIER WHEN ALL WE DID WAS
FIGHT WITH EACH OTHER.
BOBBIE: YOU KNOW,
HONEY, LEARNING TO LOVE YOU IS
NOT A SIMPLE TASK -- NO MATTER
HOW MUCH I SAID I WANTED IT.
BUT THEN, ALL OF A SUDDEN ONE
DAY, IT DID GET EASIER.
CARLY: WHY?
BOBBIE: BECAUSE I FINALLY
ADMITTED TO MYSELF THAT I USED
TO BE VERY MUCH LIKE YOU.
CARLY: REALLY?
HOW?
BOBBIE: TRUST ME, YOU DON'T
WANT TO KNOW.
CARLY: I DO.
NO, I REALLY, REALLY DO.
BOBBIE: A LONG TIME AGO,
I WAS CRAZY IN LOVE
WITH A MARRIED MAN NAMED SCOTT
BALDWIN.
AND EVEN THOUGH I KNEW IT WAS
WRONG, I DID EVERYTHING I COULD
TO TRY AND BREAK UP
HIS MARRIAGE.
CARLY: OOH, YEAH.
THAT WOULD MAKE YOU A LOT
LIKE ME.
BOBBIE: YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO
HE WAS MARRIED TO?
CARLY: WHO?
BOBBIE: LAURA.
CARLY: BEFORE SHE MET LUKE?
BOBBIE: YEAH.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, I'M THE ONE
WHO INTRODUCED THEM.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, I SPENT
MOST OF MY WAKING HOURS TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO BREAK UP
SCOTT AND LAURA.
NOTHING WAS TOO LOW OR TOO
OUTRAGEOUS.
CARLY: WELL, SO I GUESS
YOU WERE SUCCESSFUL THEN, HUH?
BOBBIE: AFTER ALL THAT
EFFORT?
NO, ALL I DID WAS CAUSE A LOT
OF HEARTACHE FOR MYSELF
AND FOR EVERYBODY ELSE.
CARLY: YEAH, I KNOW THAT
FEELING.
BOBBIE: YOU KNOW, HONEY,
WHEN YOU STOOD IN FRONT OF ME
AT THE PORT CHARLES GRILL
AND YOU TOLD ME YOU WERE
MY DAUGHTER, MY FIRST REACTION
WAS OUTRAGE AT HAVING BEEN
DECEIVED.
BUT THEN I BEGAN TO REALIZE THAT
YOU WENT AFTER TONY FOR A LOT
OF THE SAME REASONS I WENT AFTER
SCOTT --
INSECURITY, ANGER,
A DESPERATE NEED TO BE LOVED.
AND I REALIZED THAT
IF WE COULD BE SO MUCH ALIKE
IN OUR NEGATIVE QUALITIES,
JUST MAYBE WE COULD BE ALIKE
IN OUR POSITIVE ONES.
AND THE CLOSER WE GOT,
THE MORE I KNEW I WAS RIGHT.
A.J.: EM,
I WANT TO MAKE ONE THING CLEAR.
IT'S NOT MY INTENTION TO HURT
MICHAEL, JASON, OR ANYONE.
YOU KNOW ME BETTER THAN THAT --
AT LEAST I HOPE YOU DO.
EMILY: IT'S A COURT ORDER
FOR ANOTHER PATERNITY TEST,
ISN'T IT?
A.J.: JASON REFUSED THE FIRST
ONE.
MAYBE HE'LL BE SMARTER THIS
TIME.
EMILY: JASON IS NEVER GOING
TO GIVE YOU MICHAEL.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST STOP TRYING?
A.J.: YOU'VE DISCUSSED THIS
WITH HIM?
EMILY: OF COURSE.
A.J.: THEN YOU KNOW THAT
MICHAEL IS MY SON.
EMILY: MICHAEL --
MICHAEL ONLY HAS ONE FATHER,
AND THAT'S JASON.
I MEAN, HE'S THE ONE THAT'S BEEN
RAISING HIM.
HE'S THE ONLY ONE THAT MICHAEL
KNOWS.
A.J.: IS THAT WHAT JASON TOLD
YOU TO SAY?
EMILY: NO, THAT'S WHAT
I BELIEVE.
A.J., I'VE WATCHED THEM
TOGETHER, AND JASON KNOWS
EVERYTHING THAT MICHAEL NEEDS
JUST BY LOOKING AT HIM.
A.J.: YEAH, SO JASON'S A GOOD
FATHER.
DID ANYONE EVER THINK THAT
I COULD BE?
MAYBE EVEN BETTER?
EMILY: A.J.,
I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU HURT
OR WITHOUT SOMETHING THAT I KNOW
THAT YOU REALLY WANT,
BUT THE BEST THING FOR MICHAEL
IS TO BE WITH JASON, AND NOTHING
YOU DO CAN REVERSE THAT.
SO WHY DON'T YOU JUST TRY
TO FORGIVE EVERYBODY AND TEAR
THAT THING UP AND LEAVE MICHAEL
ALONE?
A.J.: I'M SORRY WE SEE THINGS
SO DIFFERENTLY.
I'M NOT GOING TO ASK
YOU TO CHANGE YOUR MIND.
DON'T ASK ME TO CHANGE MINE.
EDWARD: GOD FORBID CASSADINE
SHOULD CHOOSE TO BE ON TIME
FOR HIS OWN BOARD MEETING.
HE HAD NO REASON TO BE SO SMUG,
EITHER, BECAUSE THAT SUPERFLU
OUTBREAK AND THE SUBSEQUENT
QUARANTINE COST THE HOSPITAL
PLENTY.
WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS LATER.
SO, DID YOU GET THOSE SECOND
COURT PAPERS FROM THE LAWYERS?
A.J.: YEAH, I ARRANGED
TO HAVE IT SERVED MYSELF.
EDWARD: LET'S SEE.
OH-HO-HO-HO. PERFECT.
ONE LOOK AT THIS AND JASON'S
LAWYERWILL KNOW THAT HE HAS
NO CHOICE BUT TO COOPERATE.
MONICA: A.J., I KNOW THIS HAS
TO BE DONE.
I JUST WANT YOU TO
PLEASE, PLEASE BE CIVIL.
A.J.: MOM, BOTH JASON
AND I ARE BEING VERY CAREFUL NOT
TO DO ANYTHING THAT CAN BE USED
AGAINST US IN COURT.
NOW, CARLY, ON THE OTHER HAND --
SHE FREAKED OUT WHEN I HANDED
HER THE AFFIDAVIT FROM
DR. EVANS.
EDWARD: AND WE CAN ONLY HOPE
THAT TODAY WILL BE EVEN WORSE.
MONICA: OH.
A.J.: EM WAS HERE WHEN
I RECEIVED THE COURT ORDER.
SHE'S UPSET.
MONICA: WELL, WHERE IS SHE?
A.J.: THE LIVING ROOM.
MONICA: THANK YOU.
A.J.: YEAH.
EDWARD: SO, A.J.,
REMEMBER THAT ANYTHING THAT
YOU CAN SAY TO PROVOKE EITHER
ONE OF THEM COULD WORK
IN OUR FAVOR, HMM?
A.J.: I KNOW.
EDWARD: THIS TIME'S GOING
TO DO IT.
BEFORE LONG, WE ARE GOING TO BE
BABYPROOFING THIS ENTIRE PLACE.
MONICA: LOOK, THE BLOOD TEST
IS PROBABLY GOING TO PROVE THAT
A.J. IS MICHAEL'S FATHER.
AND THAT'S GOING TO GIVE HIM
RIGHTS, EMILY.
WE CAN'T IGNORE THAT.
EMILY: SO THE LAW IS
ON A.J.'S SIDE.
DOES THAT AUTOMATICALLY MAKE IT
FAIR?
MONICA: NO.
NO, IT DOESN'T.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, IF I HAD
MY DRUTHERS, MICHAEL WOULD LIVE
HERE AND JASON WOULD BE
A SIGNIFICANT FACTOR
IN HIS LIFE.
AND INSTEAD OF JUST ONE FATHER,
MICHAEL WOULD END UP HAVING TWO.
EMILY: THAT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'D
RATHER BE IN THE MIDDLE THAN DO
WHAT'S BEST FOR MICHAEL.
MONICA: NO.
I MEAN, NO -- NO, THAT'S NOT
TRUE.
EMILY: MOM, THE ONLY PEOPLE
THAT MICHAEL KNOWS IN HIS LIFE
ARE JASON AND CARLY.
IF YOU MOVE HIM HERE NOW,
HE'LL BE TERRIFIED.
MONICA: WELL, LOOK, BABIES --
BABIES ADAPT, YOU KNOW?
EMILY: WHAT ABOUT JASON?
IS HE GOING TO ADAPT, TOO?
MONICA: WELL, AT THE MOMENT,
JASON IS UPSET.
EMILY: "UPSET"?
IF YOU BRING MICHAEL HERE NOW,
THAT MEANS THAT TWO
OF THE PEOPLE I LOVE THE MOST
WILL BE MISERABLE.
THAT CAN'T BE A GOOD THING,
MOM, AND I WON'T PRETEND THAT
IT IS.
EDWARD: WELL, I ASSUME YOU'VE
BEEN FILLING EMILY IN
ON THE LATEST DEVELOPMENT.
MONICA: EXCUSE ME, WE ARE
TALKING --
EDWARD: IT'S ALL GOING
TO WORK OUT, EMILY.
NOW, YOU JUST DON'T WORRY ABOUT
ANYTHING, AND YOU PUT YOUR TRUST
IN A.J., HMM?
EMILY: PUTTING MY TRUST
IN A.J. MEANS PUTTING MY TRUST
IN YOU, AND THAT IS SOMETHING
I AM NOT GOING TO DO.
EDWARD: NOW, WAIT A MINUTE.
I'M NOT THE ONE --
EMILY: EVERYTHING THAT HAS
HAPPENED NOW, GRANDFATHER,
IS YOUR FAULT.
AND IF NO ONE ELSE IN THIS HOUSE
IS GOING TO STAND UP TO YOU,
I WILL.
SONNY: IF YOU'RE THINKING I'M
GOING TO TELL YOU WHERE MICHAEL
AND JASON ARE, YOU'RE GOING
TO BE HERE A LONG TIME.
MIKE: LAST THING ON MY MIND.
SONNY: GOOD, GOOD.
MIKE: I MEAN --
HOWEVER, I MEAN, THEY COULD BE
ON THAT CARIBBEAN ISLAND WHERE
YOU WERE LIVING, BUT THAT'S ONLY
ONE OF A THOUSAND POSSIBILITIES.
SONNY: MIKE, IF ANYBODY KNOWS
WHERE JASON IS --
MIKE: LOOK, I WOULDN'T --
SONNY: YOU UNDERSTAND --
MIKE: I WOULDN'T, OK?
AND BESIDES, THAT PLACE ALMOST
DROVE YOU NUTS.
HOW LONG BEFORE THE SAME THING
HAPPENED TO JASON?
SONNY: HE HAS MICHAEL.
THAT'S ALL HE NEEDS.
TO SOME PEOPLE,
"FATHER" IS A WORD.
TO JASON, THAT'S THE WAY
HE LIVES.
I JUST HOPE THIS KID APPRECIATES
HIM.
MIKE: WELL, I'M --
I'M SORRY JASON COULDN'T STAY.
SONNY: BUT, SEE,
THAT'S THE THING, YOU KNOW?
I MEAN, UNDER OTHER
CIRCUMSTANCES, HE COULD HAVE
STAYED AND HE COULD HAVE WON
FULL CUSTODY WITH THE HELP
OF A GOOD LAWYER AND A DECENT
WOMAN AS MICHAEL'S MOTHER.
CARLY: SO, YOU GOT ANYMORE
FUN, LITTLE JUICY STORIES
YOU WANT TO SHARE WITH ME HERE,
AS LONG AS WE'RE ON A ROLL?
BOBBIE: OH, NO, BECAUSE
IF I START, WE'LL BE HERE ALL
NIGHT.
CARLY: WELL, I GOT ONE
FOR YOU.
YOU KNOW, WHEN I WAS A LITTLE
GIRL AND I USED TO THINK ABOUT
WHAT MY REAL MOTHER WAS LIKE,
SHE HAD THIS PERFECT BLOND HAIR
WITH A LITTLE FLIP THAT NEVER
FELL DOWN.
AND SHE WAS WARM AND SHE WAS
KIND AND SHE NEVER RAISED
HER VOICE AND SHE NEVER DID
ANYTHING WRONG.
NO OFFENSE BUT,
BOY, WAS I OFF.
BOBBIE: WELL.
YOU KNOW, LUKE AND I GREW UP
VERY HARD.
AND WE DID WHAT WE HAD TO DO
TO SURVIVE.
AND SOMETIMES THAT MEANT HURTING
OTHER PEOPLE, UNFORTUNATELY.
CARLY: IT OFTEN DOES.
HOW DID YOU TURN IT AROUND?
BOBBIE: WELL, FOR ONE THING,
I LEARNED TO KEEP MY HANDS OFF
OTHER WOMEN'S MEN.
CARLY: I WAS KIND OF TALKING
ABOUT THE BIG PICTURE, YOU KNOW?
HOW'D YOU GET TO BE
SO RESPONSIBLE?
BOBBIE: HARD WORK
AND A CAREER THAT REALLY MEANT
SOMETHING TO ME AND FINALLY
UNDERSTANDING THAT I COULD DO
WHATEVER I REALLY WANTED TO DO
IF I SET MY MIND TO IT.
CARLY: YEAH.
BUT YOU'RE STILL THE SAME
PERSON.
NURSING DIDN'T CHANGE THAT.
BOBBIE: THAT'S TRUE.
I GUESS THE BIG CHANGE CAME WHEN
I STARTED RAISING LUCAS.
BECAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN MY LIFE, I STARTED TO PUT
SOMEBODY ELSE'S NEEDS BEFORE
MY OWN.
CARLY: OK. I GET IT.
BOBBIE: GET WHAT?
CARLY: OH, YOU KNOW,
THAT YOU BECAME A SURGICAL
NURSE, AND I FLUNKED OUT
OF THE PROGRAM, THAT YOU'RE
MOTHER OF THE YEAR, AND I LEFT
MY BABY WHEN HE WAS JUST BORN.
BOBBIE: WAIT A MINUTE.
CARLY, YOU WERE ASKING ME HOW
I CHANGED, SO I WAS EXPLAINING
TO YOU HOW IT WAS FOR ME.
CARLY: LOOK, THIS IS REALLY
RIDICULOUS, OK?
I MEAN, I WAS STARTING TO THINK,
LIKE, THIS DAY IS GOING TO BE
REALLY SPECIAL, YOU KNOW,
IT'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING
REALLY DIFFERENT FOR US.
INSTEAD IT TURNS OUT LIKE IT
ALWAYS DOES, YOU KNOW?
YOU JUST REMIND ME OF EVERYTHING
I'VE EVER DONE WRONG.
WHICH IS REALLY GREAT SEEING
AS HOW, YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING
TO LEAVE THIS GREAT MEMORY
OF THE LAST TIME I WAS EVER
HERE.
CHLORINE-- IT'S IN TAP WATER,
AND IT CAN FADE COLORS.
NO WONDER THEY'RE SCARED.
ALL-COLOR CHEER NEUTRALIZES
CHLORINE WHILE IT CLEANS...
TO HELP MAKE WATER
SAFE FOR COLORS.
WHEN YOU COMBINE
REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
AND CRISPY WAFERS,
THE COMBINATION
IS IRRESISTIBLE.
REESE STICKS...
ñ|
CARLY: I'M SORRY.
I SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID THAT.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
IF YOU NEED MORE HELP TOMORROW,
YOU JUST GIVE ME A --
I GOT TO GO.
BOBBIE: CARLY, DON'T YOU DARE
WALK OUT THAT DOOR.
CARLY: NO, YOU KNOW WHAT?
THIS IS NO GOOD.
EVERY TIME WE START TO GET
A LITTLE BIT CLOSER, YOU START
IN ON ME.
BOBBIE: STOP.
STOP AND LISTEN, OK?
I WASN'T CRITICIZING YOU -- NOT
ABOUT MICHAEL, NOT ABOUT
ANYTHING.
CARLY: ARE YOU SAYING THAT
YOU APPROVE OF THE JOB I'M DOING
WITH MY SON?
BOBBIE: YES.
BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT?
YOU ARE TRYING VERY HARD,
AND YOU ARE BECOMING A BETTER
MOTHER EVERY DAY.
AND MICHAEL IS A VERY HAPPY
CHILD.
AND I HAVE TO GIVE YOU AT LEAST
SOME OF THE CREDIT FOR THAT.
OK?
CARLY: I THINK I'M JUST
A LITTLE EXTRA SENSITIVE TODAY.
BOBBIE: IT'S ALL RIGHT.
IT HAPPENS.
NOW, WHAT WAS THAT COMMENT ABOUT
YOU LEAVING FOREVER?
CARLY: UH --
I JUST -- I MEANT --
YOU KNOW, THIS PLACE, ONCE IT'S
PACKED UP -- THAT'S IT.
BOBBIE: HONEY,
I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE
AFRAID,
TO FEEL LIKE YOU NEVER MEASURE
UP NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY.
NEXT TIME THOSE FEELINGS START
TO OVERWHELM, YOU CALL ME, OK?
CARLY: OK.
BOBBIE: AND I WILL DO WHAT
I CAN TO TRY AND MAKE IT BETTER.
CARLY: MAYBE.
I GOT TO GO.
LISTEN, CAN YOU -- YOU CAN
FINISH THIS UP BY YOURSELF?
I MEAN --
BOBBIE: YEAH, SURE.
THERE'S NOT THAT MUCH.
WILL YOU DO ME A FAVOR?
CARLY: WHAT?
BOBBIE: WEAR THE NECKLACE
RUBY GAVE YOU.
CARLY: DO YOU MIND?
BOBBIE: HERE WE GO.
CARLY: HOW'S IT LOOK?
BOBBIE: IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
WEAR IT WHEN WE HAVE LUNCH NEXT
WEEK?
CARLY: I DIDN'T KNOW WE WERE.
BOBBIE: IT WAS AN INVITATION.
CARLY: YOU KNOW, I THINK NEXT
WEEK'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE HARD
BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I'M MOVING
INTO MY NEW APARTMENT AND --
BOBBIE: OK, WELL, DON'T WORRY
ABOUT IT, ALL RIGHT?
WHEN YOU GET EVERYTHING SORTED
OUT, CALL ME AND WE'LL PICK
A DAY THAT'S GOOD FOR BOTH
OF US.
CARLY: OK, YEAH.
OK.
THANKS -- I'M --
YOU KNOW, I'M JUST
EMOTIONAL FROM BEING HERE.
BYE, MAMA.
BOBBIE: BYE, HONEY.
EMILY: IT WAS YOUR IDEA
TO TRY TO STEAL MICHAEL BEFORE
HE WAS EVEN BORN.
JASON KNEW THAT, AND THAT'S WHY
HE KEPT US AWAY.
EDWARD: THE ONLY BABY THIEF
IN THIS FAMILY IS JASON.
NOW, HE STOLE A.J.'S CHILD,
AND IT IS MY DUTY TO HELP GET
HIM BACK.
EMILY: OH, COME ON,
GRANDFATHER.
I KNOW YOU JUST WANT ANOTHER
QUARTERMAINE TO CONTROL.
A.J.'S TRYING TO SCORE POINTS
WITH YOU AND TRYING TO STEAL
NED'S JOB AT E.L.Q.
JASON JUST WANTS TO RAISE
MICHAEL IN QUIET A PEACE.
EDWARD: NO, JASON'S FAMOUS
BABY CARE HAS PUT MICHAEL
IN JEOPARDY.
NOW, WE'RE SAVING THAT LITTLE
BOY, EMILY.
I'M SORRY NOBODY LIKES IT,
BUT IT HAS TO BE DONE.
EMILY: SAVING MICHAEL IS
A MASK THAT YOU HIDE BEHIND
SO YOU CAN GET YOUR LITTLE WAY.
YOU THINK NO ONE KNOWS THAT?
WE'RE ONTO YOU.
EDWARD: I AM NOT THE ENEMY.
EMILY: NEITHER IS JASON!
HE IS TRYING TO BE THE BEST
PERSON THAT HE CAN,
GRANDFATHER, AND HELP EVERYONE
OUT.
AND INSTEAD OF ACCEPTING THAT
AND BEING GRATEFUL FOR THAT,
YOU'RE TRYING TO RUIN HIS LIFE.
EDWARD: SO WHAT WOULD
YOU HAVE ME DO INSTEAD?
JUST WALK AWAY AND WISH HIM
THE VERY BEST?
EMILY: WHY NOT?
THAT'S WHAT HE DESERVES.
EDWARD: NO, HE DOES NOT.
HE IS A CRIMINAL, AND HE IS
A DISGRACE TO THE QUARTERMAINE
NAME.
EMILY: HIS NAME IS MORGAN!
MORGAN!
SO IS MICHAEL'S.
ACCEPT THAT.
EDWARD: MICHAEL IS
A QUARTERMAINE.
NOW, HE HAS A DESTINY, AND I AM
GOING TO SEE THAT HE
FULFILLS IT.
EMILY: OK.
I AM MICHAEL'S GODMOTHER.
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MICHAEL
EVERY DAY.
I GUARANTEE YOU, THOUGH,
THAT IF YOU AND A.J. SUCCEED
IN GETTING MICHAEL INTO THIS
HOUSE, I WILL NEVER FORGIVE
YOU -- AND NEITHER WILL
GRANDMOTHER.
EDWARD: DID YOU EVER HEAR
SUCH NONSENSE IN YOUR LIFE?
MONICA: I AGREE WITH EMILY.
WE'VE ALL BEEN LIVING IN A HELL
THAT HAS BEEN DESIGNED,
CREATED BY YOU.
ALEXIS: THAT'S BETTER.
IT'S COLD HERE.
NED: DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHAT A PLEASURE IT IS TO BE
SUMMONED BY YOU IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE AFTERNOON?
ALEXIS: YOU MIGHT WANT
TO RESERVE YOUR JUDGMENT UNTIL
YOU HEAR WHAT I HAVE TO SAY.
NED: WELL, IF IT'S BAD NEWS,
I'LL BE SHATTERED, AND YOU'LL
HAVE TO TAKE ME BACK
TO YOUR SUITE AND COMFORT ME.
AND IF IT'S GOOD NEWS,
WELL, THEN I'LL BE SO ECSTATIC
YOU'LL HAVE TO TAKE ME BACK
TO YOUR SUITE SO WE CAN
CELEBRATE.
EITHER WAY, IT PROMISES FOR ONE
FINE AFTERNOON.
ALEXIS: YOU'RE NOT MAKING
THIS ANY EASIER FOR ME, YOU KNOW
THAT?
NED: OK.
WHY ARE WE HERE?
ALEXIS: BECAUSE I'VE MADE
A BUSINESS DECISION.
AND BEFORE YOU FIND OUT ABOUT IT
FROM SOMEONE ELSE, I WANT
YOU TO HEAR IT FROM ME FIRST.
NED: GOOD INSTINCT.
ALEXIS: YOU ADVISED ME TO GO
AFTER MY SHARE OF THE CASSADINE
INHERITANCE, AND THAT'S WHAT I'M
DOING.
I'M DOING SOMETHING ELSE,
AS WELL.
NED: WHAT?
ALEXIS: I'M WORKING WITH JAX
TO STAGE A CORPORATE RAID
ON CASSADINE INDUSTRIES.
NED: NO. NO.
YOU'RE NOT.
STEFAN: GOOD AFTERNOON,
KATHERINE.
THANK YOU FOR AGREEING
TO MEET ME.
SHALL WE?
KATHERINE: YOU'RE LATE,
SO LET'S SKIP THE PLEASANTRIES.
I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT.
STEFAN: DO YOU?
KATHERINE: YES.
YOU'RE WORRIED THAT I'LL
ANNOUNCE TO EVERYONE THAT
NIKOLAS IS NOT THE CASSADINE
HEIR -- AND TO WARN ME WHAT DIRE
CONSEQUENCES I WILL FACE
IF I DO.
STEFAN: I DON'T MAKE IDLE
THREATS, KATHERINE.
KATHERINE: I ALREADY TOLD
NIKOLAS I WOULDN'T TELL ANYONE.
I DON'T NEED YOU TO REMIND ME.
STEFAN: WELL, FORGIVE MY LACK
OF FAITH IN YOU, KATHERINE.
YOU DID TELL NIKOLAS, AFTER ALL.
KATHERINE: I HAVE NO INTEREST
IN DEFENDING MYSELF.
I TOLD NIKOLAS THAT YOU WERE
HIS FATHER BECAUSE I FELT THAT
HE HAD A RIGHT TO KNOW.
I ASSURED NIKOLAS THAT
I WOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING
TO ANYONE, AND I WON'T.
STEFAN: YOU TOLD HIM
BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT IT WOULD
CAUSE TENSION BETWEEN US,
WHEN IN FACT, IT HAS DONE
NOTHING BUT DRAW US CLOSER.
KATHERINE: NIKOLAS WILL
REALIZE THAT YOU USED HIM
TO CONTROL THE CASSADINE
FORTUNE.
AND HE'LL ANNOUNCE IT HIMSELF.
I REMEMBER ALL THOSE RELATIVES
WE HAD TO INVITE TO
OUR ENGAGEMENT PARTY.
DIVIDING THE MONEY AMONG ALL
THOSE PEOPLE -- THAT WON'T
REALLY LEAVE MUCH FOR YOU,
WILL IT?
STEFAN: YOUR CONCERN
FOR MY WELFARE IS TOUCHING.
KATHERINE: WELL, DON'T LET IT
GO TO YOUR HEAD.
BUT IF YOU NEED A LOAN,
FEEL FREE TO ASK MY BUSINESS
MANAGER.
OF COURSE, THE INTEREST RATE
WILL BE HIGH, BUT YOU'LL BE
IN NO POSITION TO BARGAIN.
STEFAN: ONCE AGAIN
YOU MISCALCULATE, KATHERINE.
NIKOLAS WILL NEVER HURT ME.
KATHERINE: AND WHAT MAKES
YOU SO SURE?
STEFAN: BECAUSE HE KNOWS IT
WOULD PLEASE YOU.
AND PLEASING YOU
NO LONGER INTERESTS HIM.
KATHERINE: HMM.
I WAS WONDERING WHEN WE'D GET
TO THIS.
STEFAN: NIKOLAS IS A YOUNG
MAN -- REFINED, IMPRESSIONABLE.
YOUR BEHAVIOR WAS SHAMELESS.
KATHERINE: IT TAKES TWO,
STEFAN.
NIKOLAS KNEW THAT IT WOULD CRUSH
YOU IF HE HAD AN AFFAIR WITH ME,
AND YET -- WELL, LET'S JUST SAY
THAT THAT DIDN'T DAMPEN
HIS ENTHUSIASM.
STEFAN: I AM FAR
FROM CRUSHED.
IN FACT, THE MOST ENLIGHTENING
THING ABOUT DISCOVERING
YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH NIKOLAS
WAS HOW LITTLE I CARED.
KATHERINE: YOU'RE LYING.
STEFAN: OH, NO.
I WAS CONCERNED FOR NIKOLAS,
OF COURSE.
BUT BEYOND THAT, IT HAD
ABSOLUTELY NO IMPACT ON ME
AT ALL.
KATHERINE: HMM.
IT'S SO DANGEROUS TO SAY NASTY
THINGS TO ME SINCE I COULD
TRIGGER HELENA SO EASILY.
STEFAN: WELL, ONCE AGAIN
YOU'VE SHOWN YOUR TRUE COLORS,
KATHERINE, AS I KNEW YOU WOULD,
AS YOU ALWAYS DO.
KATHERINE: I WOULD HAVE
THOUGHT YOU'D LEARN YOUR LESSON
BY NOW.
IT'S ALWAYS A MISTAKE
TO UNDERESTIMATE ME.
STEFAN: FRANKLY, I DON'T
THINK THAT'S POSSIBLE.
NED: I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH YOU GOING AFTER CASSADINE
INDUSTRIES.
IN FACT, I THINK IT'S A GREAT
IDEA.
BUT I'M THE ONE WHO SHOULD BE
WORKING WITH YOU, NOT JAX.
ALEXIS: WELL, HE'S HUNGRY.
HE STILL WANTS TO SHOW THE WORLD
THAT HE HASN'T LOST HIS TOUCH.
NED: OH, COME ON, ALEXIS.
HE WILL SELL YOU OUT TO GET
ANOTHER $50 IN HIS OWN POCKET,
AND YOU KNOW THAT.
I MEAN, WHY --
WAIT A MINUTE.
IS IT ME?
AM I THE PROBLEM?
ALEXIS: THE PROBLEM IS
THE WAY YOU LOOK AT ME WHEN
I WALK INTO A ROOM
AND, MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE WAY
I FEEL AFTER YOU'VE MADE LOVE
TO ME.
IT'S NEVER BEEN EASY FOR ME
TO GET CLOSE TO PEOPLE,
AND I FEEL CLOSE TO YOU,
AND I DON'T WANT ANYTHING
TO CHANGE THAT.
MONICA: YOU HAVE BLUSTERED
AROUND THIS HOUSE PROCLAIMING
ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS FAMILY,
WHEN IN FACT, EDWARD, ALL YOU'RE
DOING IS TRYING TO DESTROY IT.
YOU HAVE ALIENATED NED,
YOU'VE PITTED MY SONS AGAINST
EACH OTHER, AND NOW YOU'VE GOT
EMILY BESIDE HERSELF WITH WORRY
AND FRUSTRATION.
YOU HAVE SCHEMED, YOU HAVE
BRIBED, YOU HAVE LIED,
AND YOU HAVE USED PEOPLE
WITHOUT ANY THOUGHT AS TO HOW
IT'S GOING TO HURT THEM
LATER ON.
YOU HAVE PUMPED A.J. UP
WITH SUCH DETERMINATION TO GET
CUSTODY OF MICHAEL THAT WHEN
HE DOES -- IF HE DOES -- JASON
IS GOING TO RETALIATE,
AND THERE'S GOING TO BE A WAR
AMONGST THE QUARTERMAINES THAT
WILL GO ON FOREVER.
NOW, I LOVE MICHAEL JUST AS MUCH
AS YOU DO -- POSSIBLY MORE.
EDWARD: OH --
MONICA: WAIT A MINUTE.
IF YOU CAUSE A PERMANENT RIFT
BECAUSE OF THIS STUPID CUSTODY
FIASCO AMONGST MY CHILDREN, I AM
GOING TO THROW YOU OUT OF THIS
HOUSE, I AM GOING TO GIVE JASON
ALL OF MY E.L.Q. STOCKS,
AND I AM GOING TO LET THE WORLD
KNOW EXACTLY WHY.
NOW, COMPASSION AND DECENCY
DOESN'T COME EASILY TO YOU.
BUT I THINK THIS IS ONE TIME
IN YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU REALLY
BETTER WORK AT IT.
CARLY'S VOICE: "DEAR BOBBIE,
BY THE TIME YOU GET THIS,
JASON, MICHAEL, AND I WILL BE
FAR AWAY.
I'LL MISS YOU.
BUT I'M DOING WHAT YOU SAID
YOU LEARNED TO DO, WHICH IS PUT
MY CHILD FIRST.
THANK YOU FOR BEING A MOTHER
TO ME AND FOR SAYING I'M LIKE
YOU.
I LOVE YOU, MAMA."
SONNY: THE CAR'S PACKED.
YOU READY?
CARLY: YEAH.
CAN WE MAIL THIS ON OUR WAY?
SONNY: YOU JUST GIVE IT
TO JOHNNY, AND HE'LL DO IT
TOMORROW.
CARLY: NO, I -- I HAVE TO DO
IT MYSELF, SONNY.
SONNY: UH -- ALL RIGHT.
WE'LL MAKE A STOP.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
SONNY: WHAT?
JOHNNY: A.J. QUARTERMAINE.
SONNY: LET HIM IN.
A.J.: JASON AROUND?
SONNY: NO.
A.J.: MAKE SURE HE GETS THIS.
CARLY: WHAT IS IT?
A.J.: THE USUAL.
ANOTHER COURT ORDER
FOR A PATERNITY TEST.
CARLY: OK.
SO, I'LL LEAVE IT RIGHT HERE
FOR HIM.
THANKS.
A.J.: YOU CAN THROW IT AWAY,
BURN IT, FOLD IT INTO A PAPER
AIRPLANE AND FLY IT OUT
THE WINDOW, BUT THIS TIME IT'S
GOING TO STICK.
CARLY: YEAH. OK, A.J.
LOOK, WE'RE NOT AFRAID OF YOU.
WE NEVER HAVE BEEN.
WE NEVER WILL BE.
A.J.: HE'S GOT 24 HOURS.
IF HE REFUSES TO COMPLY, IT WILL
BE CONSIDERED AN ADMISSION THAT
MICHAEL IS MY SON, AND AFTER
THAT, ALL I HAVE TO DO IS FILE
FOR CUSTODY.
SONNY: ALL RIGHT.
NEXT TIME WE SEE HIM, WE'LL GO
AHEAD AND GIVE HIM THE NEWS.
ANYTHING ELSE?
A.J.: HE'S GOT 24 HOURS.
SONNY: OH, MAN.
ALL RIGHT, WE'RE GOING TO GIVE
HIM A COUPLE MINUTES.
THAT WAY, YOU KNOW, HE DOESN'T
FOLLOW US.
AND THEN WE'LL HEAD
TO THE AIRPORT.
CARLY: ALL RIGHT, BUT WHAT
ABOUT THIS THING?
SHOULD WE TAKE IT?
SONNY: WHY?
AW, JEEZ.
NED: WE WORKED TOGETHER
BEFORE, AND WE GOT ALONG GREAT.
I MEAN, WHY WOULD THIS BE ANY
DIFFERENT?
ALEXIS: BECAUSE IF I WERE
FOOLISH ENOUGH TO GET
YOU INVOLVED WITH A WAR
WITH MY FAMILY, YOU WOULD NEVER
FORGIVE ME.
NED: IF THIS IS A WAR,
I CAN HELP YOU WIN IT.
AND WHEN IT'S OVER,
WE CAN GO OUT AND CELEBRATE.
ALEXIS: WELL, I DON'T WANT
TO TAKE THAT CHANCE.
I NEED FOR YOU TO PLEASE
UNDERSTAND THIS.
NED: ALL RIGHT, FINE.
NOW, LISTEN -- I WANT A DAILY
REPORT OF EVERYTHING YOU'RE
DOING.
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE WRITTEN
DOWN.
A PHONE CALL WILL DO.
ALEXIS: WHY?
NED: BECAUSE IF I SENSE THAT
JAX IS TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF YOU, I WILL KNOW, AND I CAN
STOP HIM.
ALEXIS: WILL YOU CATCH ME
IF I FALL?
NED: I WON'T HAVE TO.
ALEXIS: THANKS FOR THE VOTE
OF CONFIDENCE.
NED: IT'S ALL YOU'LL LET
ME DO.
ALEXIS: NOT ALL.
YOU DID MENTION EARLIER
SOMETHING --
NED: RACE YOU.
A.J.: JASON WASN'T THERE,
SO I GAVE THE COURT ORDER
TO CARLY.
EDWARD: OH.
A.J.: SHE THREW IT
IN THE TRASH.
SHE WAS TRYING TO BE BRAVE,
BUT I CAN TELL SHE WAS
TERRIFIED.
EDWARD: WELL, THE PROSPECT
OF LOSING HER CHILD MUST BE
DEVASTATING.
A.J.: WELL, IT'S SOMETHING
THAT SHE'S JUST GOING TO HAVE
TO GET USED TO.
EDWARD: DO YOU EVER WONDER,
A.J., IF THERE MIGHT BE ANOTHER
APPROACH, A DIFFERENT WAY TO GET
WHAT WE WANT WITHOUT TEARING
THE ENTIRE FAMILY APART?
A.J.: YES, OF COURSE I HAVE.
EDWARD: AND?
A.J.: THERE ISN'T.
EDWARD: BUT MAYBE IF WE KEPT
LOOKING, LIKE, FOR ANOTHER
APPROACH THAT WE COULD USE --
A.J.: I KNOW THAT THIS HAS
BEEN EXHAUSTING FOR YOU, AND IT
HAS BEEN FOR ME, TOO.
BUT NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO BACK
OFF.
EDWARD: I JUST WANTED TO BE
SURE THAT WE WERE DOING WHAT WAS
RIGHT BY MICHAEL -- BY EVERYONE.
A.J.: I'VE BEEN SURE
FOR A LONG TIME.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE, TOO.
EDWARD: OH, I AM.
I WAS MERELY TRYING TO --
TO CLARIFY OUR OBJECTIVES.
A.J.: AND THAT IS TO GAIN
CUSTODY OF MY SON NO MATTER WHAT
IT TAKES.
CLEAR ENOUGH?
CARLY: HI.
IT'S ME.
BOBBIE: HI, SWEETHEART.
I DIDN'T EXPECT TO HEAR
FROM YOU SO SOON.
CARLY: UH --
YEAH, I KNOW.
SOMETHING CAME UP, ACTUALLY,
A LITTLE CHANGE OF PLANS,
AND TURNS OUT I'M GOING TO BE
FREE FOR LUNCH TOMORROW,
SO IF YOU CAN MAKE IT --
BOBBIE: OH, WELL, I DON'T
HAVE MY CALENDAR IN FRONT
OF ME, BUT --
CARLY: BOBBIE, COME ON.
IT'S GOING TO BE A LOT
OF FUN, OK?
PLEASE?
BOBBIE: OK.
TOMORROW IT IS.
CARLY: OK, I'M GOING TO CALL
YOU IN THE MORNING, AND WE'LL
SET A TIME AND A PLACE, OK?
YEAH. ME, TOO.
SONNY: LET'S GO.
CARLY: I CAN'T.
SONNY: WHY?
CARLY: BECAUSE I JUST GOT OFF
THE PHONE WITH MY MOTHER,
AND SHE HAS BEEN CRYING SINCE
I LEFT.
SHE HAS.
AND SHE ASKED ME IF I CAN COME
OVER, AND I --
I COULDN'T SAY NO.
SONNY: DOES THIS HAVE
ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHY YOU WANT
TO STAY?
CARLY: SONNY, MY MOM'S
IN TROUBLE HERE, OK?
SONNY: OH, I'M SORRY,
I FORGOT.
YOU GUYS ARE SO CLOSE.
CARLY: LOOK, MICHAEL IS
BEYOND THE REACH OF AMERICAN
LAW, SO WHAT'S ONE MORE DAY?
IT'S NOT GOING TO MATTER.
SONNY: DO YOU WANT YOUR BAGS
BROUGHT UP?
CARLY: THAT'D BE NICE.
SONNY: TELL JOHNNY.
I'M GOING TO CALL JASON,
TELL HIM WHAT'S HAPPENING.
>> ON THE NEXT "GENERAL HOSPITAL" --
JAX: WHAT'S LUKE SPENCER'S
STAKE IN THE CASSADINE DEAL?
CARLY: WHY ARE YOU STANDING
IN MY ROOM INTERROGATING ME?
SONNY: YOU GOT TO CHILL.
A.J.: I'LL BET CARLY'S JUST
ABOUT OVER THE EDGE.
IT'S A GOOD TIME TO GIVE
HER AN EXTRA PUSH.
