JUAN: PSST.
EMILY: JUAN.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
JUAN: I'M VISITING YOU.
EMILY: HOW'D YOU GET IN?
JUAN: THROUGH YOUR WINDOW.
EMILY: OH, NO.
JUAN: WHAT'S THE MATTER?
AREN'T YOU GLAD TO SEE ME?
EMILY: WELL, YEAH, OF COURSE,
BUT IF MY PARENTS SEE YOU,
THEY'RE GOING TO GO BALLISTIC.
ALAN: EMILY?
WHERE ARE YOU?
JUAN: IT WAS NICE SEEING YOU.
EMILY: NO, NO, NO, NO.
ALAN: EMILY?
OH, THERE YOU ARE.
I COULD'VE SWORN YOU WERE
TALKING TO SOMEBODY ELSE HERE.

MAC: HI, LAUR
YOU GOT A MINUTE?
LAURA: YEAH, SURE.
MAC: COME HERE.
I NEED TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT
A MAN YOU'VE PROBABLY HEARD OF.
CESAR FAISON?
LAURA: I --
OH, I THINK I DO KNOW THAT NAME.
ISN'T HE THE ONE WHO KILLED
ROBERT AND ANNA?
MAC: SUPPOSEDLY, HE DIED
IN THE EXPLOSION WITH THEM.
BUT HE DIDN'T.
CESAR FAISON IS ALIVE.

TAGGERT: OH.
I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T SEE YOU THERE.
FAISON: OH.
I BELIEVE YOU DID.
ARE YOU FOLLOWING ORDERS?
HUH?
SO THE COMMISSIONER BELIEVES
THAT HE CAN DRIVE ME OUT OF TOWN
BY HAVING HIS DETECTIVE
ATTACKING ME WITH
BEVERAGES?
TAGGERT: ACCIDENTS HAPPEN,
MR. FAISON.
FAISON: UH-HUH.
TAGGERT: THERE'S NO WAY
AROUND IT.
AND IT'S LIEUTENANT,
JUST FOR THE RECORD.
FAISON: OF COURSE.
YOU HAVE AN INTERESTING QUALITY,
LIEUTENANT --
INTEGRITY, COURAGE.
AND YET YOU WOULDN'T HESITATE
A SECOND TO USE THE LAW
FOR YOUR OWN GOOD, WOULD YOU?
GGERT: TRYING TO FIGURE
ME OUT?
LET ME GIVE YOU A HINT.
I'M THE GUY
THAT HATES CROOKS.
FAISON: UH-HUH.
MUST BE NICE TO KNOW YOURSELF
SO WELL.
TAGGERT: IT ISN'T.
YOU SEE, AS LONG AS YOU'RE STILL
WALKING THE STREETS,
I'M HAVING TROUBLE SLEEPING
AT NIGHT.
FAISON: TRY SOME WARM MILK
AND A COOKIE.
TAGGERT: THANKS FOR THE TIP.
HERE'S ONE RIGHT BACK AT YOU --
COMM. SCORPIO'S TOLD ALL
THE OFFICERS TO KEEP THEIR EYES
ON YOU.
NOW, YOU SEE, THAT'S A COUPLE
OF HUNDRED EYES WATCHING EVERY
MOVE YOU MAKE.
SO YOU SO MUCH AS SNEEZE
WITHOUT COVERING YOUR MOUTH,
SOMEONE'S GOING TO HAUL
YOUR BUTT IN.
FAISON: MM-HMM.
WELL,
THE COMMISSIONER SHOULD KNOW
THAT I DO NOT RESPOND
TO INTIMIDATION.
TAGGERT: WE'LL SEE ABOUT
THAT, MR. FAISON.
NICE HAIR.

HANNAH: OH.
THANKS.
TAMMY: DID YOU GET STARTED
A LITTLE LATE TODAY?
HANNAH: WHY YOU ASK?
TAMMY: WELL, USUALLY YOU END
YOUR RUN A LITTLE BIT SOONER.
HANNAH: I DECIDED TO TAKE
A FEW EXTRA MILES.
TAMMY: HMM.
HANNAH, YOU SEE THAT MAN OVER
THERE?
WHENEVER HE ORDERS STEAK
AND EGGS, I KNOW FOR A FACT
HE JUST HAD A FIGHT
WITH HIS WIFE.
AND THAT WOMAN IN THE CORNER
OVER THERE?
WHEN SHE'S HERE ALONE,
CHEESE OMELET.
OATMEAL WHEN SHE HAS COMPANY.
HANNAH: YOU'VE VERY
OBSERVANT.
TAMMY: RIGHT. I KNOW.
THAT'S WHY I NOTICE WHEN
YOUR RUN GOES 45 MINUTES LONGER.
THINGS AREN'T GOING TOO
WELL, HUH?
HANNAH: I SAW SONNY LAST
NIGHT.
TAMMY: I KNOW.
SO WHAT HAPPENED?
HANNAH: THAT'S WHAT
I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT.

SONNY: HOW LONG YOU BEEN
HERE?
JASON: HALF-HOUR.
I DIDN'T WANT TO WAKE YOU.
SONNY: I WAS AWAKE.
YOU SPEAK TO BENNY?
JASON: JUST CAME FROM THERE.
SONNY: HEARD FROM CARLOS?
JASON: HIS FIRST SHIPMENT
IS DUE IN NEXT WEEK.
SONNY: YOU MADE
THE ARRANGEMENTS?
JASON: YEAH, EVERYTHING'S
READY.
WE'LL OFFLOAD AT PIER 16,
STORE IT ALL IN THE WAREHOUSE
ON WATER STREET.
SONNY: SO IT'S THAT EASY
FOR YOU?
YOU JUST PICK UP WHERE
YOU LEFT OFF?
JASON: IT'S ALL I KNOW.
SONNY: MAYBE THAT'S
THE PROBLEM.
DIDN'T WORK WITH HANNAH LAST
NIGHT.
WAY TOO SOON.
I WOUND UP SENDING HER HOME.
SHE DIDN'T SAY MUCH, BUT I KNOW
SHE WAS HURT.
JASON: YEAH, SHE WAS.

JASON: I WAS WALKING
ON THE DOCKS LAST NIGHT
AND I SAW HANNAH.
SHE TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED.
SONNY: WAS SHE ALONE?
JASON: SHE WENT FOR ICES.
SONNY: CHERRY, RIGHT?
JASON: YEAH, LOOKED LIKE IT.
SONNY: I TOLD HER A THOUSAND
TIMES NOT TO GO DOWN THERE
ALONE.
SO WHAT'D SHE SAY?
JASON: THAT CARLY CAME
BY AND YOU ASKED HER TO LEAVE.
SONNY: THAT'S ABOUT IT.
JASON: AND SHE ALSO SAID
SOMETHING ABOUT IF --
IF THE DOOR KEEPS SLAMMING
IN HER FACE, MAYBE SHE SHOULD
GET THE MESSAGE.

EMILY: OH, I WAS TALKING
TO SALLY.
I WANTED TO SEE IF SHE GOT
MY SKIRT BACK FROM THE CLEANERS.
ALAN: I WAS WONDERING
IF YOU HAD A MOMENT.
I THOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD
TIME TO HAVE A LITTLE BIT
OF A FATHER-DAUGHTER TALK.
EMILY: I WAS ACTUALLY JUST
ON MY WAY OUT.
ALAN: IT'S IMPORTANT, EM.
EMILY: OK.
WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND?
ALAN: I KNOW HOW UPSET
YOU WERE AFTER THE PARTY
FOR MICHAEL'S RECHRISTENING.
I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT
YOU UNDERSTOOD THE REASONING.
EMILY: I THOUGHT IT
WAS OBVIOUS.
YOUR IDEA OF BEING MY FATHER IS
TO CONTROL EVERYTHING I DO.
ALAN: LOOK, IT WAS
UNREALISTIC OF ME TO THINK THAT
YOU WOULD NOT SEE JASON.
I APOLOGIZE.
BUT YOU MUST ALSO UNDERSTAND
THAT I HAVE GOOD CAUSE TO WORRY.
EMILY: NO, I DON'T THINK THAT
YOU UNDERSTAND.
I'VE NEVER FELT SAFER THAN WHEN
I'M WITH JASON.
ALAN: I'M REFERRING TO JUAN.
I AM VERY WORRIED ABOUT
YOUR ASSOCIATION WITH HIM.
EMILY: NO KIDDING.
ALAN: I FOUND OUT FROM TONY
THAT HE'S GOING TO SPEND
THE REST OF THE SUMMER HERE
IN PORT CHARLES.
NOW, I KNOW THAT YOU WANT
TO SEE HIM --
YOU'VE MADE NO SECRET
ABOUT THAT --
BUT I'VE GOT TO TELL
YOU SOMETHING -- YOU ARE
STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO HAVE ANY
CONTACT WITH HIM.
IF YOU DO TRY TO SEE HIM,
YOUR GROUNDING WILL BE
REINSTATED INDEFINITELY.
EMILY: DAD, HE'S ENROLLED
IN THE YOUTH OUTREACH PROGRAM.
DOESN'T THAT COUNT FOR ANYTHING?
ALAN: I DON'T CARE IF HE'S
ENROLLED IN THE DOCTORATE
PROGRAM AT P.C.U.
EMILY: HE'S TRYING TO DO
THE RIGHT THING.
WHY WON'T YOU GIVE HIM A CHANCE?
ALAN: HE IS A TEENAGER LIVING
ON HIS OWN WITHOUT ANY ADULT
SUPERVISION.
HIS CHOICE IN PEOPLE IS
TERRIBLE.
HE HAS CHOSEN SONNY CORINTHOS
AS A MENTOR.
HIS JUDGMENT IS ABSOLUTELY
ATROCIOUS, AND I DON'T WANT
YOU BEING EXPOSED TO IT.
EMILY: I'VE MADE MISTAKES,
TOO, YOU KNOW THAT?
YOU KNOW, HOW WOULD YOU FEEL
IF SOMEONE TREATED ME THE WAY
THAT YOU TREAT JUAN?
ALAN: I AM NOT TREATING JUAN
IN ANY WAY AT ALL.
I AM IGNORING HIM UNTIL
HE LEAVES PORT CHARLES,
AND SO WILL YOU.
EMILY: THAT IS NOT FAIR.
ALAN: THIS ISSUE IS NOT OPEN
FOR DEBATE.
I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE
IS NO MISUNDERSTANDING.
YOU ARE STRICTLY FORBIDDEN
TO SEE JUAN.
I'M GOING TO THE CLINIC.
YOU WANT A RIDE?
EMILY: NO, THANKS.
ALAN: I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GOING OUT.
EMILY: I'M GOING TO STAY AND
THINK ABOUT SOME THINGS.
ALAN: WELL, GOOD.
I INK THAT WHEN YOU THINK
RATIONALLY ABOUT THIS SITUATION,
YOU'LL REALIZE THAT JUAN WAS
JUST A MISTAKE IN JUDGMENT.
I'LL SEE YOU TONIGHT.
JUAN: MAN, WHAT DID I DO
TO MAKE YOUR PARENTS HATE ME
SO MUCH?
EMILY: YOU KNOW, I HAVE
A BETTER QUESTION.
WHAT CAN WE DO TO GET THEM
TO LIKE YOU?

MAC: FAISON HAS A VENDETTA
AGAINST THE SCORPIOS,
WHICH IN THE PAST HAS INCLUDED
OUR FRIENDS.
HE'S IN PORT CHARLES.
I THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW.
LAURA: DO YOU THINK THAT
I'M INANGER?
MAC: NO, PROBLY NOT.
I MEAN, BUT LUKE WAS ROBERT'S
FRIEND.
I JUST THINK YOU SHOULD BE
CAREFUL.
LAURA: CAREFUL HOW?
MAC: IF YOU SEE HIM
IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, IF HE MAKES
CONTACT WITH YOU, GIVE ME
A CALL.
LAURA: BUT I DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE.
MAC: HERE.
THIS WAS TAKEN A WEEK AGO
AT THE POLICE STATION.
LAURA: I KNOW THIS GUY.
MAC: HOW?
LAURA: HE CAME TO MY OFFICE.
BUT HE SAID HIS NAME WAS
ANTON GARDNER.
MAC: WHAT DID HE WANT?
LAURA: HE SAID THAT HE HAD
A NEPHEW WHO VANISHED
AND HE WANTED TO MAKE A DONATION
TO MY PROGRAM IN HIS NAME.
MAC: THAT'S IT?
DID HE SAY ANYTHING ELSE?
LAURA: NO.
ALTHOUGH --
MAC: WHAT?
LAURA: I DON'T KNOW.
HE JUST -- HE MADE ME
UNCOMFORTABLE IMMEDIATELY.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
THIS DOESN'T REALLY MAKE SSE
BECAUSE THE PERSON YOU'RE
DESCRIBING WOULDN'T BE
A CHARITABLE PERSON.
MAC: WELL, IT WAS PROBABLY
TO MAKE CONTACT WITH YOU.
ANTON GARDNER?
LAURA: YES.
MAC: FAISON HAS BEEN WORKING
AS A JEWEL FENCE IN EUROPE USING
THE NAME GARDNER.
YEAH, THIS FITS HIS PATTERN
PERFECTLY.
LAURA: WHICH IS WHAT?
MAC: TOYING WITH PEOPLE'S
MIND, GETTING THEM TO
SECOND-GUESS THEMSELVES.
YOU SEE, IT'S NOT ENOUGH
FOR FAISON TO HURT PEOPLE.
HE LIKES THEM TO HURT THEMSELVES
AS WELL.
LAURA: SO THEN WHY WOULD
HE COME TO ME?
MAC: MOST LIKELY,
LUKE'S CONNECTION TO ROBERT.
BUT WITH FAISON, IT COULD BE
ANYTHING.
LAURA: SO WHAT SHOULD
I DO NOW?
MAC: I JUST WANT YOU TO BE
CAREFUL, YOU KNOW, KEEP AN EYE
OVER YOUR SHOULDER.
DON'T GO OUT ALONE, DON'T GO
IN ANY DARK ALLEYS.
LAURA: OK, THANKS.
I MEAN, I'D RATHER BE INFORMED
THAN BE CAUGHT BY SURPRISE.
MAC: FAISON IS A PSYCHOPATH.
HE HAS NO MORALS, NO CONSCIENCE.
EVERYTHING HE DOES IS DESIGNED
TO HURT OR DESTROY.
HE MURDERED MY BROTHER
AND MY SISTER-IN-LAW, AND WHO
KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE.
NOW THAT HE'S ALIVE, I'M NOT
GOING TO REST UNTIL I KNOW THAT
HE'S PUT AWAY FOR GOOD.
LAURA: GOOD LUCK.
MAC: ALL RIGHT, THANKS.
LAURA: IN PORT CHARLES.
ANTON GARDNER.

TAMMY: WOW.
NICE DRESS.
HANNAH: THANK YOU.
TAMMY: LISTEN, I DON'T MEAN
TO PRY, HANNAH, BUT I JUST WANT
YOU TO KNOW IF YOU FEEL LIKE
THINKING OUT LOUD, I'D BE HAPPY
TO LISTEN TO YOU, ALL RIGHT?
HANNAH: LAST NIGHT WHEN I GOT
TO SONNY'S,
IT WAS A LITTLE AWKWARD.
YOU KNOW, WE HADN'T SEEN EACH
OTHER IN A WHILE,
AND I COULD TELL HE WAS REALLY
TENSE.
SO I MADE DINNER, AND HE STARTED
TO RELAX AND WE BEGAN
TO CONNECT.
AND THEN CARLY SHOWED UP.
AND SONNY ASKS ME TO GO.
TAMMY: OOH.
HANNAH: I MEAN, IT WAS
AS THOUGH OUR WHOLE EVENING
MEANT NOTHING TO HIM,
LIKE I MEANT NOTHING.
TAMMY: NO.
HONEY, IT'S NOT THAT.
HANNAH: HOW DO YOU KNOW?
TAMMY: WELL, I KNOW THAT
SONNY IS A GENTLEMAN.
AND EVEN IF HE NEVER WANTED
TO SEE YOU AGAIN, HE WOULD NEVER
BE THAT RUDE.
HANNAH: THEN WHAT IS IT?
TAMMY: I WISH I KNEW.
I MEAN, AFTER ALL THIS TIME,
HE INVITES YOU OVER.
THEN HE CUTS THE EVENING SHORT.
THEN HE SENDS YOU FLOWERS
FOR AN APOLOGY.
JUST DOESN'T MAKE A WHOLE LOT
OF SENSE, DOES IT?
HANNAH: NO.
AND I'M NOT SURE SONNY DOES
ANYMORE, EITHER.
TAMMY: HANNAH, YOU'VE BEEN
REALLY PATIENT THROUGH ALL THIS.
AND IF YOU DECIDED THAT
YOU WANTED TO END THIS RIGHT
NOW, I DON'T THINK ANYBODY WOULD
BLAME YOU.
HANNAH: YEAH, I HAVE
A HISTORY OF STAYING CONNECTED
TO MEN LONG PAST THE POINT
OF LEAVING.
IT'S A PATTERN OF MINE THAT I'M
REALLY TRYING TO BREAK,
BECAUSE LET ME TELL YOU,
TAMMY, I WILL NOT LET SONNY MAKE
ME WEAK.
TAMMY: HANNAH, I'VE KNOWN
SONNY A LONG TIME.
THAT ISN'T WHAT HE WANTS.
HANNAH: WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M REALLY STARTING TO FEEL THAT
WHAT SONNY WANTS IS BECOMING
LESS AND LESS IMPORTANT.
NO, THAT'S NOT TRUE.
SONNY IS IMPORTANT TO ME.
BUT IF BEING WITH SONNY MEANS
THAT I DON'T KNOW WHERE I STAND,
THEN I WILL END IT BEFORE IT
GETS ANY WORSE.
TAGGERT: EXCUSE ME,
MS. SCOTT.
I'M SORRY.
I DON'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT.
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT
SONNY CORINTHOS.

SONNY: CARLY SHOWED UP HERE
LAST NIGHT TO ASK ME TO GIVE
YOU A MESSAGE.
JASON: OK.
SONNY: SHE WANTS YOU TO KNOW
THAT SHE'S GOING ON A VACATION
WITH MICHAEL AND A.J.
JASON: WHERE ARE THEY GOING?
SONNY: HAWAII.
SHE WANTED ME TO LET YOU KNOW
THAT SHE FINALLY UNDERSTANDS,
AND YOU WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG --
THAT HER PLAN TO COME BACK
TO YOU AFTER A.J. COULD NEVER
WORK.
SHE KNOWS NOW THAT YOU GAVE UP
MICHAEL SO HE COULD HAVE,
YOU KNOW, A SOLID FAMILY,
AND SHE'S GOING TO GIVE YOU UP
FOR THE SAME REASONS.
JASON: GIVING ME UP?
SONNY: WELL, YOU KNOW,
THAT'S WHY SHE DIDN'T WANT
TO TELL YOU HERSELF.
SHE SAYS TT SHE'S -- SHE'S NOT
RUNNING AFTER YOU ANYMORE,
I GUESS.
JASON: HUH.
JASON: HEY, THAT'S GOOD,
YOU KNOW?
IT'S NICE THEY'RE GOING
TO HAWAII.
MICHAEL LOVES THE OCEAN.
YOU KNOW, THE FIRST TIME
HE WENT --
I MEAN, THE FIRST TIME I TOOK
HIM IN THE WATER WAS IN FLORIDA
AFTER CARLY'S OTHER MOTHER,
VIRGINIA, DIED.
YOU KNOW, WE WENT DOWN THERE
TO CLOSE UP THE HOUSE AND THERE
WASN'T REALLY MUCH THAT CARLY
WANTED, AND JUST BEING THERE
MADE HER SAD, SO WE WENT
TO THE OCEAN.
OH, MAN, MICHAEL WAS REALLY
LITTLE.
BUT CARLY LET ME TAKE HIM
TO THE WATER.
THAT KID WAS NOT AFRAID, SONNY.
HE WAS LAUGHING THE WHOLE TIME,
YOU KNOW?
HE LOVED THAT FEELING OF HALF
FLOATING WITH MY HANDS
AROUND HIM.
THEN WE GOT OUT OF THE WATER
AND CARLY WAS THERE WAITING
FOR US.
SHE WRAPPED MICHAEL IN A TOWEL,
DRIED HIM OFF.
THEN WE JUST SAT THERE
AND WATCHED HIM FALL ASLEEP.
THAT'S WHAT CARLY WAS TRYING
TO GET BACK, YOU KNOW --
THE THREE OF US TOGETHER.
WOW, IT HURTS TO LOSE IT.
SONNY: YOU KNOW,
SOMETIMES PEOPLE GET
IN YOUR LIFE, YOU KNOW, AND
IT FEELS LIKE THEY BELONG.
OH, MAN.
YOU NEED ME FOR ANYTHING?
JASON: NO.
SONNY: GOOD.
JASON: WHY?
SONNY: I GOT SOMETHING I GOT
TO TAKE CARE OF.

JUAN: YOU'RE DREAMING, EMILY.
THERE'S NO WAY YOUR PARENTS ARE
EVER GOING TO LIKE ME.
EMILY: COME HERE. GET UP.
LISTEN, IF YOU CAN GET YOUR DAD
TO LET YOU STAY IN PORT CHARLES
FOR LONGER, I CAN GET MY PARENTS
TO LIKE YOU.
THE PROBLEM IS THEY HAVE THIS
OBSESSION WITH PROTECTING ME.
JUAN: DO THEY REALLY THINK
I'M THAT DANGEROUS?
EMILY: WELL, IT'S NOT YOU.
IT'S MORE YOUR ASSOCIATION
WITH SONNY.
THEY DON'T WANT ME AROUND HIM.
JUAN: WELL, THAT'S PERFECT.
JUST TELL THEM SONNY DOESN'T
WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO
WITH ME AND THE PROBLEM'S
SOLVED.
EMILY: I DON'T THINK THAT'LL
CUT IT.
LOOK, WHAT WE REALLY HAVE TO DO
IS PROVE TO MY PARENTS THAT
YOU'RE A GOOD PERSON,
THAT YOU'RE NOT A BAD INFLUENCE
AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO RUIN
MY LIFE.
[DOOR CLOSES]
EMILY: UH, GET IN
THE LIVING ROOM.
JUAN: BUT --
EMILY: GO, GO, GO, GO, GO.
HURRY, HURRY.
LILA: REGINALD, YOU REALLY
SHOULDN'T HAVE TOLD
MR. QUARTERMAINE TO GET HIS OWN
DAMN SCONES.
OH, EMILY.
WHAT A LOVELY WAY TO MAKE
MY MORNING.
EMILY: HOW ARE YOU,
GRANDMOTHER?
LILA: OH, SPLENDID,
DEAR, THANK YOU.
AND YOU?
EMILY: I'M GOOD.
I ACTUALLY WANTED TO ASK
YOU A FAVOR, IF POSSIBLE.
REGINALD: WELL, IF YOU PEOPLE
WILL EXCUSE ME, I'M SURE I HAVE
SOME OTHER MEANINGLESS CHORES
TO DO.
EMILY: WHAT'S WITH HIM?
LILA: OH, MISSING LETICIA'S
PUT HIM IN A TERRIBLE MOOD.
WELL, NOW, DEAR, WHAT CAN
I DO FOR YOU?
EMILY: I WANT YOU TO INVITE
A FRIEND OF MINE TO DINNER.
LILA: OH?

FAISON: MRS. SPENCER,
WHAT A PLEASURE TO SEE
YOU AGAIN.
LAURA: MR. FAISON.
FAISON: I BEG YOUR PARDON?
LAURA: OH, THE POLICE
COMMISSIONER TOLD ME THAT
YOU WERE FOND OF ALIASES.
FAISON: YEAH, LIFE CAN GET
COMPLICATED WITHOUT THEM.
HAVE YOU EVER CALLED YOURSELF
BY ANOTHER NAME, MRS. SPENCER?
IT'S QUITE LIBERATING.
LAURA: HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT
YOU HAVE BEEN TRAFFICKING STOLEN
JEWELS.
FAISON: YEAH.
WELL, THE COMMISSIONER'S JUMPING
TO CONCLUSIONS.
LAURA: WELL, EVEN SO,
I'M AFRAID I CAN'T TAKE
THE CHANCE.
THIS IS THE DONATION THAT
YOU MADE TO THE OUTREACH
PROGRAM.
I AM AFRAID I CAN'T ACCEPT IT.
FAISON: WHY NOT?
LAURA: BECAUSE THE PROGRAM
WAS DESIGNEDO KEEP KIDS
ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LAW.
NOW, IF I ACCEPT A DONATION,
MONEY THAT WAS MADE BY BREAKING
THE LAW -- THAT WOULD MAKE
A MOCKERY OF EVERYTHING WE DO.
FAISON: TELL ME,
MRS. SPENCER,
DO YOU HAVE TO APPROVE EVERY
PERSON WHO MAKES A LITTLE
DONATION TO YOUR PROGRAM?
DO YOU HAVE THEM ALL OVER
FOR DINNER?
DO YOU SPEND A WEEK
IN THE MOUNTAINS WITH THEM?
I DON'T THINK SO.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY IS
TO THE PEOPLE WITHIN
THE PROGRAM, AND NOTHING SHOULD
GET IN THE WAY OF THAT.
LAURA: I DON'T EVERANT
TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
FAISON: I WONDER WHAT
UR KIDS WOULD SAY IF --
LAURA: DON'T YOU DARE TALK
ABOUT MY CHILDREN!
DON'T YOU EVEN MENTION
THEIR NAMES!
IF YOU GO NEAR MY FAMILY,
I PROMISE YOU I WILL TAKE
YOU DOWN MYSELF!

HANNAH: WHAT'S THE PROBLEM,
LIEUTENANT?
SLOW MORNING?
TAGGERT: LOOK, I KNOW WE GOT
OFF ON THE WRONG FOOT, BUT --
HANNAH: YOU DRAGGED ME
TO THE POLICE STATION TWICE
FOR NO REASON.
THAT'S NOT THE WRONG FOOT.
THAT'S HARASSMENT.
TAGGERT: ALL RIGHT,
SO YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO BE ANGRY.
BUT TODAY'S DIFFERENT.
HANNAH: NOT SO FAR.
TAGGERT: I'M HERE TO ASK
YOU FOR HELP.
HANNAH: FOR WHAT?
TAGGERT: CAN WE DISCUSS
THIS OUTSIDE?
HANNAH: LET'S GO.
TAGGERT: YOU CARE TO SIT?
HANNAH: NOT REALLY.
TAGGERT: I'D PREFER TO KEEP
THIS CONFIDENTIAL.
HANNAH: I HAVE A HARD TIME
BELIEVING THIS ISN'T ABOUT
SONNY.
TAGGERT: WELL, ACTUALLY,
IT IS.
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. WAIT.
I KNOW IT'S NO SECRET HOW I FEEL
ABOUT SONNY, BUT THERE'S
SOMEBODY ELSE IN TOWN I LIKE
EVEN LESS.
HANNAH: WHO?
TAGGERT: HIS NAME IS
CESAR FAISON.
HE'S A CAREER CRIMINAL.
HE'S NASTY.
HE'S SMART.
I WANT HIM OFF THE STREETS --
BEHIND BARS, DEAD --
I DON'T CARE.
HANNAH: WHAT CAN I DO?
TAGGERT: FAISON HAS A HOT
RACKET FENCING JEWELRY ACROSS
INTERNATIONAL BORDERS.
HE GOES BY THE ALIAS
"THE GARDNER."
NOW, MY SOURCES TELL ME THAT
HE'S MOVING HIS PRODUCT HERE.
SOONER OR LATER, HE'S GOING
TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH SONNY.
NOW, WHEN HE DOES, IF HE HASN'T
ALREADY, I WANT SONNY
TO COOPERATE WITH THE POLICE
IN NAILING HIM.
HANNAH: YOU WANT SONNY
TO INFORM?
TAGGERT: HE CAN CALL IT
WHATEVER HE WANTS.
HANNAH: IT MUST BE TEMPTING
FOR YOU TO JUST WRITE ME OFF
AS SOME BABE SONNY'S SHACKING UP
WITH, BUT I HAVE A BRAIN,
DETECTIVE.
I KNOW A SETUP WHEN I SEE ONE.
TAGGERT: YOU'RE WRONG.
HANNAH: ARE YOU TELLING ME
IF SONNY BRINGS YOU INFORMATION
ON THIS FAISON CHARACTER,
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO USE IT
TO BUST HIM?
TAGGERT: CORINTHOS CAN HAVE
COMPLETE IMMUNITY ON ANYTHING
HE BRINGS US.
HANNAH: IN WRITING?
TAGGERT: IN BLOOD,
IF HE WANTS IT.
HANNAH: WHY NOT GO DIRECTLY
TO SONNY?
TAGGERT: BECAUSE WE CAN'T BE
IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER
WITHOUT TRYING TO TEAR EACH
OTHER'S HEADS OFF.
I NEED A GO-BETWEEN, MS. SCOTT.
YOU SEEM LIKE THE LOGICAL
CHOICE.
HANNAH: I'M NOT INVOLVED
IN ANY OF THIS.
WHY SHOULD I HELP YOU DO
YOUR JOB?
TAGGERT: IF FAISON
STAYS AT LARGE,
EVENTUALLY THEY WILL WORK
TOGETHER.
SOONER OR LATER, SONNY'S GOING
TO DO SOMETHING FAISON
DOESN'T LIKE,
AND FAISON WILL GET RID OF HIM
LIKE YESTERDAY'S NEWSPAPER.
THESE ARE MY NUMBERS.
DON'T TAKE TOO LONG.

FAISON: PLEASE CALM DOWN,
MRS. SPENCER.
I WOULD HATE TO BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR A RELAPSE OF YOUR CONDITION.
LAURA: WHY DON'T YOU GO PLAY
WITH SOMEBODY ELSE'S HEAD.
I'M NOT AFRAID OF YOU.
FAISON: I'LL REMEMBER THAT.
FELICIA: GET AWAY FROM HER.
LAURA: IT'S OK. I'M FINE.
FELICIA: NO, IT'S NOT OK.
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO THIS
MAN IS?
LAURA: YES, IT'S
CESAR FAISON.
FAISON: MRS. SPENCER
SUGGESTED WE GET TOGETHER.
FELICIA: WELL, SHE MADE
A MISTAKE.
TAKE OFF OR I'M GOING TO CALL
THE POLICE.
FAISON: AND WHAT WOULD
YOU TELL THEM I'VE DONE?
FELICIA: I'LL THINK
OF SOMETHING.
FAISON: YEAH.
MUCH AS I ENJOY BEING THE CENTER
OF ALL THIS ATTENTION,I HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT.
MRS. SPENCER, IT WAS A PLEASURE
GETTING TO KNOW YOU A LITTLE
BETTER.
D, FELICIA,
AS ALWAYS, STIMULATING.
FELICIA: ARE YOU L RIGHT?
LAURA: I'M FINE.
AND IN THE FUTURE, I DON'T NEED
YOU TO PROTECT ME.

LILA: AND MIGHT THIS DINNER
GUEST BE YOUR NEW FRIEND JUAN?
EMILY: GRANDMOTHER,
MY PARENTS REALLY HATE HIM
AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW HIM.
I FIGURE THAT IF HE JOINS US
FOR DINNER, TH THEY WOULD SEE
THAT HE ISN'T THE AWFUL PERSON
THAT THEY THINK HE IS.
YOU KNOW HOW IT IS,
RIGHT -- M EAN, WITH
GRANDFATHER.
DIDN'T YOUR PARENTS HATE HIM
WHEN THEY FIRST MET HIM?
AND IT WOULDN'T BE LIKE WE'D BE
GOING BEHIND MY PARENTS' BACK
BECAUSE WE WOULD ALL BE
TOGETHER.
LILA: YOU'RE QUITE TAKEN
WITH THIS YOUNG MAN, AREN'T YOU?
EMILY: HE'S GOOD COMPANY.
LILA: WELL, THEN IN THAT
CASE, WE'LL CERTAINLY ENJOY
HAVING HIM FOR DINNER.
EMILY: OH.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
LILA: THERE'S ONE CONDITION,
HOWEVER.
EMILY: OK.
LILA: THAT YOU TELL
YOUR PARENTS IADVANCE.
EMILY: OOH.
YOU THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA?
WHAT IF THEY DON'T SHOW ?
LILA: OH, I VEORE FAITH
IN THEM THAN THAT.
IT'S THE ONLY WAY, DEAR.
ANYTHING LESS WOULD BE TAKING
ADVANTAGE.
EMILY: OK.
IF THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT,
I WILL TELL THEM.
LILA: GOOD.
OH, NOW, DEAR, WOULD YOU PLEASE
ASK REGINALD TO COME IN HERE
BECAUSE I WANT TO GET OUT
TO THE GARDEN BEFORE IT GETS
TOO HOT.
EMILY: OK.
REGINALD!
REGINALD: WHAT?
EMILY: GRANDMOTHER NEEDS
YOU RIGHT AWAY.
LILA: THAT POOR, POOR MAN.
HE'S BESIDE HIMSELF.
NEVER MIND, DEAR.
I'LL SEE MYSELF OUT.
EMILY: OH, GRANDMOTHER,
YOU SURE?
LILA: ABSOLUTELY, DEAR.
I'M A GREAT DEAL STRONGER THAN
PEOPLE THINK.
EMILY: NEVER MIND, REGINALD.
JUAN: I'M NOT DOING IT.
EMILY: WHAT?
JUAN: YOU HEARD ME.
I'M NOT HAVING DINNER
WITH YOUR FAMILY.

EMILY: LISTEN, THIS IS
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT.
MY PARENTS ARE GOING TO BE
FORCED TO HAVE A NORMAL
CONVERSATION WITH YOU.
JUAN: I'M SORRY, EMILY.
I CAN'T.
EMILY: WHY NOT?
JUAN: YOU HEARD YOUR FATHER.
I MEAN, IF HE CATCHES ME
AT YOUR DINNER TABLE, HE'S GOING
TO BOUNCE ME OUT IN A MINUTE.
EMILY: MY GRANDMOTHER INVITED
YOU, OK?
NOBODY'S GOING TO GIVE
YOU A HARD TIME.
JUAN: THAT SWEET OLD LADY?
YOUR FAMILY'S GOING TO ROLL
RIGHT OVER HER.
EMILY: OBVIOUSLY, YOU DON'T
KNOW MY FAMILY VERY WELL --
OR MY GRANDMOTHER.

REGINALD: ANYTHING FOR ME?
MONICA: UH, I DON'T THINK SO.
REGINALD: CAN I SEE?
MONICA: WELL, YES.
REGINALD: OH. OF COURSE.
YOU KNOW, I KNEW IT.
FORGOT ALL ABOUT ME.
MONICA: WHO?
REGINALD: YOU KNOW,
I MEAN, YOU'D THINK SHE'D
AT LEAST SEND A POST CARD --
YOU KNOW, I MEAN, EVEN IF IT'S
A "DEAR REGINALD" POST CARD.
JUST A LITTLE SOMETHING.
MONICA: WELL, I HATE TO BURST
YOUR BUBBLE HERE, BUT,
YOU KNOW, LETICIA'S PLANE HASN'T
EVEN LANDED IN MAUI.
REGINALD: YOU KNOW, THERE ARE
PHONES ON PLANES.
SHE COULD'VE CALLED.
THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING --
A LITTLE PHONE CALL.
MONICA: OK, FINE.
I'M SURE THAT SHE WILL,
REGINALD.
IN THE MEANTIME, WHY DON'T
YOU JUST TRY NOT TO FRET
ABOUT IT?
REGINALD: OK, I'LL TRY THAT.
OBVIOUSLY, YOU'VE NEVER BEEN
IN LOVE.
EMILY: HMM.
HE'S BEEN LIKE THAT ALL MORNING.
MONICA: WELL, I HOPE HE GETS
OVER IT.
LETICIA, A.J., AND CARLY --
THEY'RE GOING TO BE AWAY FOR,
WHAT, TWO WEEKS?
EMILY: YEAH.
IT'S KIND OF HARD TO SAY
GOOD-BYE TO SOMEONE THAT
YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT.
I HAVE SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS.
WANT TO HEAR IT?
MONICA: ALWAYS.
EMILY: GRANDMOTHER INVITED
JUAN OVER FOR DINNER.

FELICIA: FAISON IS MUCH MORE
DANGEROUS THAN YOU REALIZE.
LAURA: YOU KNOW,
YOUR HUSBAND FILLED ME IN ABOUT
IT, SO I DON'T REALLY NEED
YOU TO REPEAT IT TO ME.
FELICIA: YES, OBVIOUSLY
YOU DO.
LAURA: YOU KNOW, IN CASE
YOU'VE FORGOTTEN, I HAVE BEEN
IN A LOT OF DANGEROUS SITUATIONS
WITH LUKE AND ROBERT, AND I CAN
TAKE CARE OF MYSELF.
FELICIA: FAISON GOT
INTO ROBERT'S HEAD BY USING
ANNA, AND THERE'S A POSSIBILITY
HE MAY BE DOING THE SAME THING
TO YOU, TRYING TO GET TO LUKE.
LAURA: FINE.
THEN I WILL FILL LUKE IN ABOUT
ALL OF THIS WHEN HE GETS BACK.
UNTIL THEN, I'LL TAKE CARE
OF MYSELF.
FELICIA: FAISON SAID THAT
YOU ASKED TO SEE HIM.
IS THAT TRUE?
LAURA: YEAH.
FELICIA: HOW DID
YOU CONTACT HIM?
LAURA: YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT JUST WASN'T THAT HARD.
I CALLED INFORMATION.
I ASKED FOR A LISTING UNDER
HIS ALIAS, ANTON GARDNER.
FELICIA: OF COURSE.
YOU SEE, WITHOUT YOU EVEN
REALIZING IT, HE'S DRAWN
YOU INTO HIS LIFE.
LAURA: I REALLY CAN HANDLE
THIS.
FELICIA: PLEASE, LAURA.
MAC AND I HAVE HAD FIRSTHAND
EXPERIENCE DEALING WITH
THIS MAN.
PLEASE, LET US PROTECT YOU.
LAURA: YOU KNOW WHAT?
I KNOW THAT THIS IS COMING
FROM A GOOD PLACE AND YOU'RE
WORRIED ABOUT ME -- AND I REALLY
DO APPRECIATE THAT -- BUT UNTIL
FURTHER NOTICE, I WILL MANAGE
MY AFFAIRS IN MY OWN WAY.
ALL RIGHT?

SONNY: IS THIS SEAT TAKEN?

HANNAH: IT'S A TABLE FOR TWO.
GO AHEAD AND SIT DOWN.
HANNAH: WHAT'S THAT?
SONNY: A GIFT.
HANNAH: YOU ALREADY SENT
FLOWERS.
SONNY: YOU DESERVE MORE.
HANNAH: YOU'RE RIGHT. I DO.
YOU DISMISSED ME IN THE MIDDLE
OF A DATE, IN FRONT OF A WOMAN
I DON'T EVEN LIKE.
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW BAD
I FELT ABOUT THAT?
SONNY: WELL, I COULD TELL
YOU RIGHT NOW I PRETTY MUCH FELT
THE SAME WAY.
HANNAH: I NEED MORE FROM YOU,
SONNY.
I WILL NOT BE AN AFTERTHOUGHT
IN YOUR LIFE.
SONNY: I WAKE UP
IN THE MORNING AND I THINK
OF YOU.
I GO TO SLEEP AT NIGHT AND IT'S
THE SAME THING.
YOU ARE NOT AN AFTERTHOUGHT.
MOST OF THE TIME,
YOU'RE THE ONLY THOUGHT.
HANNAH: CAN I OPEN
MY PRESENT?
SONNY: YEAH.
HANNAH: I KNEW IT.
THESE ARE BECOMING
HABIT-FORMING.
SONNY: SO ARE YOU.

MONICA: I SERIOUSLY DOUBT
THAT INVITING JUAN TO DINNER WAS
LILA'S IDEA.
EMILY: IT COULD'VE BEEN.
I MEAN, SHE COULD'VE
HEARD THAT --
OK, IT WAS MY IDEA.
BUT I TOLD YOU IN ADVANCE,
SO WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
MONICA: WELL, I THANK YOU
FOR BEING HONEST WITH ME.
THE PROBLEM IS JUAN IS
OFF LIMITS.
EMILY: MOM, PLEASE?
JUST THIS ONE NIGHT.
ONE DINNER, PLEASE?
MONICA: OK. ALL RIGHT.
NOW, WAIT -- JUST ONE DINNER.
THAT'S IT.
NO OTHER COMMITTMENT.
EMILY: OK.
AND MAYBE IF YOU, YOU KNOW,
DECIDE THAT YOU LIKE HIM,
YOU MIGHT WANT TO HAVE LUNCH
WITH HIM.
MONICA: DON'T, DON'T PUSH IT.
PLEASE DON'T PUSH IT.
NOW, I HAVE TO GO TO WORK.
AND WOULD YOU DO ME A FAVOR?
WOULD YOU TRY TO THINK
OF SOMETHING ELSE OTHER THAN
JUAN TODAY?
EMILY: Yes.
EMILY: IT'S ALL SET.
JUAN: ALL SET FOR
YOUR PARENTS TO HATE ME MORE
THAN THEY ALREADY DO.
EMILY, THIS IS GOING TO BE
A DISASTER.
EMILY: NO.
IT'S GOING TO WORK.
IT'S HAS TO.
SO TELL ME -- WHAT DO YOU WANT
FOR DINNER, AND I WILL MAKE SURE
THAT WE HAVE IT.
JUAN: UM --
WILL YOU HOLD MY HAND UNDER
THE TABLE?
EMILY: NO.
JUAN: WHY SHOULD I COME,
THEN?
EMILY: SO MY PARENTS CAN SEE
WHAT I ALREADY KNOW.
COME ON.
WE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE.
JUAN: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
WAIT A MINUTE.
LOOK, I KNOW --
I KNOW YOU PUT YOURSELF OUT
FOR ME, EMILY.
AND I'M GOING TO DO MY BEST NOT
TO LET YOU DOWN.
EMILY: THIS IS INSANE.
EMILY: LET'S GO.
JUAN: I MUST BE CRAZY.

LAURA: AUDREY, HI.
AUDREY: OH, LAURA.
HELLO. HOW ARE YOU?
LAURA: I HAVE AN URGENT
MATTER TO DISCUSS WITH
THE HOSPITAL BOARD.
I NEED TO MEET WITH THEM
IMMEDIATELY.
AUDREY: WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
LAURA: WELL, I WAS FORCED
TO RETURN A DONATION THAT
I RECEIVED.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE FUNDS WERE
ALREADY ALLOCATED.
AUDREY: HMM.
DID THE DONOR CHANGE HIS MIND,
THEN?
LAURA: NO. I DID.

FAISON: YEAH, LET
MASTER SPENCER KNOW THAT I HAD
A CALL FROM HIS CHARMING MOTHER
TODAY REGARDING A MEETING.
YEAH.
IS HE STILL STUDYING THE CHESS?
THAT'S GOOD.
THAT'S VERY GOOD.
BUT MAKE SURE YOU DON'T TAKE ANY
CHANCES WITH HIM.
YEAH.
PORT CHARLES?
I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S CHANGED SOMEWHAT.
YEAH, BUT SOME CHALLENGES SEEM
TO BE EVEN MORE INTRIGUING THAN
EXPECTED.
NO, I'LL CALL YOU.
YOU'RE WELCOME.

MAC: FELICIA.
IS EVERYTHING OK?
WHERE'S FAISON?
FELICIA: WELL, HE LEFT.
GOSH, I DIDN'T EXPECT
YOU TO COME DOWN HERE YOURSELF.
I JUST CALLED THE DEPARTMENT
TO TELL THEM THAT I'D HAD
A RUN-IN WITH FAISON.
MAC: I THOUGHT WE AGREED THAT
YOU WERE TO KEEP YOUR DISTANCE.
FELICIA: OH, NO, IT WASN'T
INTENTIONAL.
I WAS WALKING BY AND HE WAS
STANDING HERE WITH LAURA.
MAC: LAURA?
I SPECIFICALLY TOLD HER TO STAY
AWAY FROM THAT GUY.
FELICIA: APPARENTLY,
SHE CALLED TO ASK HIM TO MEET
HIM HERE.
MAC: DO YOU KNOW WHY?
FELICIA: I DON'T KNOW.
I THINK IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH A DONATION OR SOMETHING
FOR THE OUTREACH PROGRAM.
MAC: WELL, SHE STILL
OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T REALIZE HOW
DANGEROUS THIS GUY IS.
FELICIA: WELL, I TRIED
TO TELL HER.
MAC: BUT?
FELICIA: SHE THINKS SHE CAN
HANDLE HIM.
MAC: SHE'D BE THE FIRST.
FELICIA: RIGHT.
UNTIL YOU TAKE HIM ON,
NO ONE CAN REALLY GRASP AT JUST
HOW DANGEROUS HE IS.
MAC: WE'RE THE ONLY ONES
LEFT, SWEETHEART.
I MEAN, EVERYONE THAT'S GONE UP
AGAINST FAISON IS DEAD.
FELICIA: AND IT'S UP TO US
TO STOP HIM.
MAC: FOR GOOD.

>> STAY TUNED FOR SCENES FROM
THE NEXT "GENERAL HOSPITAL."

JERRY: DID YOU GO
TO CAFE ENRICO?
ALEXIS: NOT THIS TIME.
JAX: SHE LOVED IT.

ALAN: HELLO, JUAN.
JUAN: YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL,
DR. QUARTERMAINE.
ALAN: THANK YOU.

STEFAN: SOMETHING IS PREYING
ON YOUR MIND.
CARE TO LET ME IN ON WHAT IT IS?

FAISON: I THINK YOU'VE BEEN
POISONED.
