NED: OK.
SO WHEN YOU HEAR FROM CHLOE,
YOU'LL JUST HAVE HER CALL ME.
LISTEN, THERESE, SHE'S PROBABLY
ON HER WAY TO MILAN AND WE JUST
GOT OUR SIGNALS CROSSED.
DON'T WORRY.
DON'T WORRY.
I'M SURE WE'LL HEAR FROM HER.
ALL RIGHT, THANKS.
ALEXIS: NO WORD FROM JAX.
NED: YEAH.
NOTHING FROM CHLOE, EITHER.
ALEXIS: WELL, I CONFIRMED
THAT THEY DIDN'T TAKE A JET
OR A HELICOPTER.
NED: OK.
DOES JERRY HAVE ANY IDEA WHERE
JAX MAY BE?
ALEXIS: I DIDN'T ACTUALLY ASK
THAT SPECIFIC QUESTION.
NED: AND WHY NOT?
ALEXIS: BECAUSE IF HIS FAMILY
KNOWS THAT HE DISAPPEARED
WITH CHLOE, THEY'LL THINK HE'S
CHEATING ON ME.
[MUSIC PLAYS]

JAX: GOOD MORNING.
CHLOE: YES, IT IS --
I MEAN, MORNING.
JAX: DID YOU SLEEP ALL RIGHT?
CHLOE: YES.
I THINK I STARTED OUT OVER
THERE, THOUGH.
JAX: OH.
WELL, AFTER THE FIRE WENT OUT,
SNAKES WERE EVERYWHERE.
IT WAS MILLIONS OF THEM.
SO, IF I HADN'T PROTECTED YOU,
THEN --
CHLOE: I DON'T REMEMBER ANY
SNAKES.
JAX: WELL, YOU SEE?
IT WORKED.
NOW ALL I HAVE TO DO IS CARRY
YOU BACK TO THE ROAD.

FAISON: I WISH I COULD STAY
A LITTLE LONGER,
BUT YOUR NURSE IS GOING TO BE
BACK ANY TIME.
FAISON: YOU WON'T BE SEEING
ME FOR A WHILE, HELENA.
BUT PLEASE DON'T WORRY ABOUT
IT, OK?
EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE JUST
FINE.

FELICIA: HAVE YOU HEARD
FROM LUKE?
BOBBIE: NO, NOT YET.
FELICIA: I LEFT A MESSAGE
FOR LAURA, I CHECKED
WITH CLAUDE, AND I CALLED JUST
ABOUT EVERYBODY I COULD
THINK OF.
BOBBIE: WELL, WHAT ABOUT MAC?
WHAT'S HIS TAKE ON ALL OF THIS?
FELICIA: I DIDN'T TELL HIM.
BOBBIE: LUKE'S DOING BUSINESS
WITH CESAR FAISON, AND
YOU DIDN'T EVEN MENTION IT
TO MAC?
FELICIA: NO.
I'M NOT GOING TO.

ELIZABETH: SO IS ANYTHING
JUMPING OUT AT YOU?
NIKOLAS: NO, NOT SO FAR.
I NEED TO FIND SOMETHING RIGHT
AWAY, THOUGH.
ELIZABETH: WHAT'S THE BIG
RUSH?
NIKOLAS: WELL, IF I'M GOING
TO BE A FATHER, I NEED TO SET
A GOOD EXAMPLE.
I CAN'T FALL BACK ON MY FAMILY'S
MONEY.
MY CHILD NEEDS TO KNOW THAT
PEOPLE WORK FOR A LIVING.
ELIZABETH: OH, COME ON,
NIKOLAS.
AREN'T YOU GETTING AHEAD
OF YOURSELF?
DO YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE
KATHERINE BELL IS GOING TO HAVE
YOUR BABY?
NIKOLAS: I'M BEGINNING TO,
YES.

KATHERINE: DR. KALE.
DR. KALE: AH.
I'M DELIGHTED TO SEE YOU AGAIN
SO SOON.
KATHERINE: YES.
DR. KALE: PLEASE,
HAVE A SEAT, MS. BELL.
KATHERINE: THANK YOU.
DR. KALE: I ASSUME THAT
YOU HAVE MADE A DECISION.
KATHERINE: YES.
I -- I DISCUSSED THE ENTIRE
SITUATION WITH THE FATHER,
AND NOW I JUST NEED TO GET
PREGNANT.

BOBBIE: I KNOW YOU'RE
CONCERNED ABOUT MAC.
AND I SAW HOW CRAZY FAISON IS
MAKING HIM.
BUT I WANT TO WARN LUKE,
TOO, AND MAC IS THE MOST LOGICAL
PERSON TO FIND HIM.
FELICIA: WHAT DO YOU THINK
MAC WOULD DO IF HE FOUND OUT
THAT LUKE IS DOING BUSINESS
WITH FAISON?
BOBBIE: PROBABLY CONTACT
INTERPOL.
FELICIA: YES, EXACTLY.
THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
LUKE THINKS THAT HE'S DOING
BUSINESS WITA MAN NAMED KRIEG.
BOBBIE: WHOM WE BOTH KNOW IS
FAISON.
FELICIA: YEAH.
AND THEY MAY BE DOING SOMETHING
ILLEGAL.
BOBBIE: OH, WELL, THAT IS
CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY.
FELICIA: SO I TELL MAC,
HE TELLS INTERPOL, AND LUKE GETS
CAUGHT.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT FAISON
WANTS.
THAT'S THE SETUP.
BOBBIE: WOW.
ACTUALLY, I NEVER EVEN THOUGHT
OF IT THAT WAY.
FELICIA: SO NOW YOU KNOW WHY
I CAN'T TELL MAC.
BOBBIE: DO YOU REALIZE THAT
YOU ARE DELIBERATELY WITHHOLDING
INFORMATION FROM MAC IN ORDER
TO PROTECT LUKE?

NIKOLAS: AT FIRST, I DIDN'T
BELIEVE KATHERINE, BUT NOW --
ELIZABETH: OK, NIKOLAS.
THIS ISN'T EXACTLY THE NEWEST
TRICK IN THE BOOK.
IT JUST SHOWS HOW DESPERATE
SHE IS TO HANG ON TO YOU.
NIKOLAS: BUT WHY WOULD SHE GO
AROUND SAYING SHE'S PREGNANT
WHEN SHE REALLY ISN'T?
ELIZABETH: SO YOU'LL DO
EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING --
WORRY ABOUT HER, FOCUS ON WHAT
SHE NEEDS.
SHE JUST WANTS YOU BACK.
THAT'S ALL.
NIKOLAS: IF SHE REALLY IS
PREGNANT, SOONER OR LATER,
YOU KNOW --
ELIZABETH: SHE'S GOING
TO START TO SHOW.
IT'S NOT RUDE TO SAY THAT.
NIKOLAS: SO SHE MUST BE.
SHE WOULDN'T SET HERSELF UP
TO GET CAUGHT IN A LIE.
ELIZABETH: OK, I'M GOING
TO ASK SOMETHING RUDE, SO BRACE
YOURSELF.
WHAT IF KATHERINE REALLY IS
PREGNANT BUT THE BABY IS
SOMEBODY ELSE'S?
NIKOLAS: THAT HAS ACTUALLY
CROSSED MY MIND.
ELIZABETH: HMM, AND YOU'VE
BEEN BROUGHT UP SO WELL.
NIKOLAS: MY CHILD BECOMES
A CASSADINE HEIR.
ELIZABETH: GEE, DO YOU THINK
THAT EVER OCCURRED TO KATHERINE?
NIKOLAS: MY FATHER WOULD RUN
EVERY TEST EVER INVENTED
TO PROVE THAT THAT CHILD ISN'T
A CASSADINE.
EVEN KATHERINE CAN'T FAKE D.N.A.
YOU KNOW, SO FOR NOW, I HAVE
TO BELIEVE THAT SHE'S TELLING
THE TRUTH.
ELIZABETH: THIS IS SO NOT
FAIR.
YOU SHOULD BE DECIDING WHAT
MOVIE YOU WANT TO SEE -- WHICH,
BY THE WAY, YOU STILL OWE ME.
INSTEAD, YOU'RE LOOKING
FOR A JOB TO IMPRESS A KID
THAT -- THAT YOU'RE NOT READY
FOR, THAT MAY NOT EVEN EXIST.
NIKOLAS: MAYBE SO.
BUT I HAVE AN INTERVIEW TODAY.
ELIZABETH: THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT KATHERINE WANTS YOU TO DO.
NIKOLAS: SHE SAYS THAT
I DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING
WITH THE BABY AT ALL.
ELIZABETH: YEAH, RIGHT.
NIKOLAS: BUT I GREW UP
WITH ONLY ONE PARENT.
I WON'T LET MY CHILD GO THROUGH
THAT.
ELIZABETH: DON'T TELL ME
YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT GETTING
BACK TOGETHER WITH HER.
NIKOLAS: NO.
BUT OUR CHILD NEEDS US.
I MEAN, THERE'S GOT TO BE A WAY
TO WORK THAT OUT.

KATHERINE: I NEED TO GET
PREGNANT RIGHT AWAY.
DR. KALE: I UNDERSTAND.
KATHERINE: DO YOU ALSO
UNDERSTAND THAT EVERYTHING THAT
HAPPENS HERE MUST REMAIN
COMPLETELY CONFIDENTIAL?
DR. KALE: WE'RE BOTH QUITE
CLEAR ON THE TERMS OF THIS
ARRANGEMENT.
KATHERINE: AT THESE PRICES,
I CERTAINLY HOPE SO.
MY NAME IS NOT TO APPEAR
ANYWHERE ON ANYTHING.
ANY LEGAL OR ETHICAL ISSUES ARE
REALLY BESIDE THE POINT,
CORRECT?
DR. KALE: YOU'RE PAYING ME
FOR MY EXPERTISE, MY
EXPERIENCE, AND MY SILENCE,
AS ALL OF MY OTHER CLIENTS DO.
KATHERINE: I HAVE ONLY GIVEN
YOU ONE SAMPLE FROM THE FATHER.
ARE YOU SURE THAT'S GOING
TO WORK?
DR. KALE: WE'VE ALREADY
FERTILIZED THE EGGS WE HARVESTED
FROM YOU.
NOW ALL WE NEED TO DO IS
DETERMINE THE BEST TIME
TO IMPLANT THEM.
KATHERINE: OH.
WELL, SOUNDS LIKE WE HAVE A LOT
OF WORK TO DO.
WHAT ARE WE JUST SITTING
HERE FOR?
THANK YOU.

EDWARD: GERTRUDE,
WHAT A DELIGHT TO HAVE YOU HERE
FOR BREAKFAST.
COME ON OVER.
GERTRUDE: WHAT'S THE PLAN?
EDWARD: SOME COFFEE -- OH.
IT'S EMPTY.
REGINALD!
GERTRUDE: FORGET THE COFFEE.
EDWARD: ALL I NEED IS ONE
MORE LOVESICK PERSON STUMBLING
AROUND THIS HOUSE.
IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR ONE
GOOD CUP OF COFFEE, REGINALD?
GERTRUDE: EDWARD.
EDWARD, EDWARD --
EDWARD: WHAT?
GERTRUDE: FORGET THE COFFEE,
WILL YOU?
TELL ME ABOUT THE TRAP.
EDWARD: OH, COME ON,
GERTRUDE.
"TRAP" IS SUCH AN --
IT'S AN UGLY WORD.
GERTRUDE: FINE.
CALL IT WHATEVER YOU LIKE.
HOW ARE WE GOING TO PROVE THAT
MY FLIGHTY NIECE ONLY MARRIED
YOUR GRANDSON TO KEEP HER HANDS
ON CHLOE MORGAN DESIGNS?
EDWARD: NO.
NO, NO, NO.
NOW, DON'T MISUNDERSTAND --
CHLOE'S A DELIGHT, AND I REALLY
ADORE HER.
AND CHLOE MORGAN DESIGNS IS
HER COMPANY, RIGHT?
GERTRUDE: MM-HMM.
EDWARD: AND I'D HATE TO SEE
HER LOSE IT TO ANYONE.
GERTRUDE: WELL, EXCEPT TO ME,
OF COURSE.
EDWARD: BUT I WILL NOT ALLOW
MY GRANDSON TO MARRY HER SOLELY
TO BUILD UP HIS EMPIRE.
NO, NO, NO.
YOU SEE, NED IS USING CHLOE
MORGAN DESIGNS TO BOLSTER THAT
LITTLE RECORD COMPANY THAT
HE HAS IN HIS STUDIO AND HE'S
TURNING HIS BACK ON E.L.Q.,
AND I WON'T HAVE IT.
GERTRUDE: EDWARD.
EDWARD.
THE PLAN?
EDWARD: WE'RE GOING TO GET
OUT OF THE WAY.
MM-HMM.
YOU SEE, THEY'VE ALL FOUR
MARRIED SOMEONE AND THEY EACH
LOVE ANOTHER.
AND IT CAN'T POSSIBLY WORK.
NO, MY DEAR.
THE TRAINS HAVE LEFT
THE STATION, AND ALL WE HAVE
TO DO IS JUST WAIT FOR THEM
TO COLLIDE.
GERTRUDE: YOU MEAN DO
NOTHING?
EDWARD: OH.
NO, MY DEAR.
I NEVER DO NOTHING.

NED: CAN YOU RUN THAT BY ME
AGAIN?
YOU'RE WORRIED THAT JERRY MIGHT
THINK JAX IS CHEATING ON YOU?
ALEXIS: I KNOW IT SOUNDS
SILLY, BUT I CAN'T HELP IT.
I DON'T WANT HIS FAMILY TO THINK
BADLY OF HIM.
THEY THINK OF ME AS
THEIR DAUGHTER.
DO YOU KNOW THAT LADY JANE SENDS
ME CARDS WITH RECIPES
FOR SLOPPY JOES?
WHAT ARE THOSE, ANYWAY?
NED: I DON'T KNOW.
ALEXIS: AND LEMON
MERINGUE PIE.
I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE THEM.
I CAN'T BAKE.
BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT.
I'M NOT GOING TO GO HIKING UP
THE APPALACHIAN TRAILS WITH HER,
EITHER, BUT I LOVE THAT
SHE WANTS ME TO.
AND DO YOU KNOW THAT JOHN --
HE CLIPS OUT THE JOKES OUT
OF THE NEWSPAPER EVERY DAY,
AND HE SENDS THEM TO ME.
THEY THINK THAT I'M THE BEST
THING THAT'S EVER HAPPENED
TO THEIR SON, AND IF THEY KNEW
THAT HE DISAPPEARED WITH CHLOE,
IT WOULD JUST BREAK
THEIR HEARTS.
NED: OK.
SO WHAT DO WE DO?
WE JUST WAIT FOR JAX TO DRAG
HER HOME?
FOR ALL WE KNOW, SHE COULD BE
INJURED.
SHE COULD BE LOST IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE HIMALAYAS.
ALEXIS: JAX WILL TAKE CARE
OF HER.
NED: OH.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE BUYING
INTO THIS.
JAX HAS DRAGGED MY WIFE GOD
KNOWS WHERE, HAS PUT
HER IN SERIOUS DANGER.
ALEXIS: YOU DON'T KNOW THAT.
NED: OH, YOU WATCH.
HE WILL PLAY THE HERO WHEN
HE COMES HOME.
HE DIDN'T EVEN TAKE A CELL PHONE
WITH HIM.
ALEXIS: NEITHER DID
YOUR WIFE.
NED: HE PROBABLY CONVINCED
HER NOT TO.
ALEXIS: LOOK, WHEN WE WERE
IN THE SAHARA --
NED: OH, PLEASE --
ALEXIS: JAX --
NED: ENOUGH ABOUT THE SAHARA.
OK?
HE FILED A FAKE FLIGHT PLAN.
HE CRASHED THE HELICOPTER
IN THE MIDDLE OF A SANDSTORM
WITHOUT ANY WATER.
OK?
AND NOW YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT
WHAT A GREAT GUY HE IS?
ALEXIS: HE FIXED THE RADIO
SO THAT YOU COULD FIND ME.
NED: YOU NEVER SHOULD HAVE
BEEN THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE,
AND NEITHER SHOULD CHLOE BE
WHEREVER SHE IS!
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
NED: THAT BETTER BE JAX.
ALEXIS: ALEXIS DAVIS.
YES.
WE'LL BE RIGHT THERE.
THANK YOU.
LET'S GO.
NED: WHERE ARE WE GOING?
ALEXIS: HORSEBACK RIDING.

CHLOE: OH.
OW!
OH.
JAX: CHLOE, WHAT HAPPENED?
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
CHLOE: YEAH.
OH -- I CAN DO THIS.
JUST HELP ME UP.
JAX: YOU'VE GOT A SPRAINED
ANKLE.
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO LET ME
CARRY YOU OUT OF HERE.
CHLOE: PEOPLE CRAWL OUT
OF THE WILDERNESS WITH BROKEN
LEGS IN THE MIDDLE OF BLIZZARDS.
JAX: THREE MILES --
CHLOE: I THINK I CAN MANAGE
TO LIMP UP TO THE ROAD.
JAX: CHLOE, IT'S THREE MILES
OVER ROUGH TERRAIN.
CHLOE: I'M THE REASON
THE HORSES RAN AWAY.
I MISSED AN IMPORTANT BUSINESS
MEETING WITH NED WITH OUR MOST
IMPORTANT CLIENT.
JAX: WELL, I GOT US STUCK OUT
HERE WITHOUT A CELL PHONE.
CHLOE: STILL, I REFUSE TO BE
HAULED OUT OF HERE LIKE A BOLT
OF SILK.
ACTUALLY, MAYBE IF YOU JUST HOLD
ON TO ME, I CAN MAKE IT OUT.
JAX: OR I COULD -- I COULD
LEAVE YOU HERE AND GO AND GET
HELP.
CHLOE: LEAVE ME HERE ALONE?
JAX: YEAH.
I'M SURE THE SNAKES WON'T BOTHER
YOU TOO MUCH.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE YOU COULD CLIMB
ONE OF THOSE TREES OVER THERE
AND JUST HANG OUT UNTIL I COME
WITH A STRETCHER.
CHLOE: OH, YOU'D BRING
A STRETCHER?
JAX: YEAH.
CHLOE: WHAT, WITH THOSE CUTE
PARAMEDICS WITH THEIR TIGHT
SHORT-SLEEVED SHIRTS?
JAX: NO.
I THINK I'D PURPOSELY BRING
OLDER PARAMEDICS IN WHEELCHAIRS
JUST FOR YOU.
CHLOE: YOU KNOW, IT JUST
MAKES ME SO MAD.
I MEAN, I AM A CHAMPION SWIMMER.
I COULD -- I COULD BEAT
YOU AT WATER-SKIING ANY DAY.
JAX: OH, DREAM ON!
CHLOE: YEAH, AND NOW THIS.
JAX: I'LL NEVER TELL.
CHLOE: YEAH, I'LL NEVER HEAR
THE END OF IT.
JAX: NOT IF I CAN HELP
IT, NO.
CHLOE: OK, FINE.
FINE.
PICK ME UP.
TAKE ME.
JAX: OH, NO, NO, NO, NO.
NOT WITHOUT BREAKFAST.
CHLOE: IT'S A LITTLE EARLY
IN THE MORNING FOR CHAMPAGNE.
JAX: THERE'S A SPRING OVER
THERE.
THE WATER'S FINE.
I'VE TESTED IT.
CHLOE: YOU'VE THOUGHT
OF EVERYTHING -- AGAIN.
JAX: YEP.
AND FOR TODAY'S MAIN COURSE,
WE HAVE CHOCOLATE.
WE HAVE CHOCOLATE.
AND TODAY'S SPECIAL --
CHOCOLATE.
CHLOE: I'LL HAVE THE SPECIAL.
JAX: OK.
COME OVER HERE, SIT DOWN.
CHLOE: OK.
OH.
OH.
CHLOE: YOU WERE REALLY UPSET,
WEREN'T YOU, JUST NOW WHEN I WAS
LAYING ON THE GROUND
LAST NIGHT, TOO.
JAX: WELL, FALLING OFF
A HORSE CAN BE SERIOUS.
CHLOE: BUT YOU KNEW IT WASN'T
SERIOUS THIS MORNING.
JAX: WELL, I --
YOU MIGHT HAVE FAINTED
FROM A CONCUSSION OR SOMETHING.
CHLOE: IT'S OK IF YOU DON'T
WANT TO TELL ME.
JAX: ONE MORNING, I WOKE UP
WITH BRENDA AND I THOUGHT THAT
WE WOULD WAKE UP TOGETHER
FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES.
AND WE HAD COFFEE.
SHE WENT TO SEE A FRIEND.
AND THEN LATER ON, I GOT A PHONE
MESSAGE THAT SHE WENT TO FIND
HER MOTHER.
SHE SAID,
"I'LL BE BACK BEFORE
YOU MISS ME."
AND "I LOVE YOU."
BUT BRENDA NEVER CAME BACK.
HER CAR WENT OFF A CLIFF,
AND I COULDN'T GET TO HER.
JAX: AND JUST LIKE THAT,
OUT OF NOWHERE,
SHE WAS GONE.
JAX: HERE.
CHLOE: THANKS.

JAX: I'LL SEND SOMEONE
FROM THE BARN TO PICK ALL THIS
STUFF UP.
CHLOE: YOU'RE REALLY GOOD
AT THIS.
JAX: WELL, WILDERNESS
TRAINING -- IT'S A JACKS FAMILY
TRADITION.
CHLOE: NO, I MEAN
AT NOT GIVING UP WHEN YOU LOST
BRENDA.
YOU LOVED HER SO COMPLETELY,
AND YOU FOUND A WAY TO KEEP
GOING.
AND YOU MADE IT LOOK EASY.
JAX: WELL, I HAVE NO CHOICE.
CHLOE: WE ALWAYS HAVE
A CHOICE.
YOU CHOSE TO BE HAPPY.
YOU CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY.
SO DO I.
JAX: YOU MADE THAT CHOICE
A LONG TIME AGO, DIDN'T YOU?
CHLOE: LONG BEFORE MY MOTHER
DIED.
WHEN I WAS 11,
I CAME HOME FROM SCHOOL ONE DAY
AND MY FATHER'S PIPE WAS GONE.
HIS PIPE WAS ALWAYS
ON THE BOOKSHELF IN THE STUDY.
MY MOTHER SAID NOT TO WORRY,
SO I TOLD MYSELF THAT HE WAS OFF
ON A SPY MISSION AND HE WAS
GOING TO BRING ME BACK PRESENTS
FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.
EVERY MORNING WHEN I WOKE UP,
I'D SEE MY MOTHER'S FACE AND IT
WAS PUFFY, AND I KNEW SHE'D BEEN
CRYING ALL NIGHT.
AND LATER,
MAYBE TWO WEEKS, MAYBE
A MONTH --
IT SEEMED LIKE FOREVER --
MY FATHER CAME BACK.
BUT NOT BACK HOME.
HE CAME BACK TO THE HOUSE.
HE TOOK ME OUT TO LUNCH.
IT WAS A FRENCH RESTAURANT,
AND THERE WAS A WOMAN
AT THE NEXT TABLE AND SHE HAD
A STRAW HAT WITH A SCARF DOWN
TO HER SHOULDERS.
THE THINGS YOU REMEMBER.
MY FATHER SAID THAT HE COULDN'T
LIVE WITH US ANYMORE.
HE SAID THAT IT WASN'T
ANYBODY'S FAULT BUT HIS AND DID
I WANT THE CREPE SUZETTE?
THAT'S WHEN I REALIZED THAT
THE RLD CAN CHANGE
WITHOUT WARNING.
NO REASON.
IT JUST DOES.
JAX: AND DID YOU GET
THE CREPE SUZETTE?
CHLOE: CHOCOLATE MOUSSE.
ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE WHILE
YOU HAVE IT.
JAX: YEAH.
NOW, MY WIFE MUST BE WONDERING
WHERE I AM.
CHLOE: POOR NED.
JAX: RIGHT.
CHLOE: HMM.
JAX: WE SHOULD GET GOING.
COME ON.
LET'S GIVE THIS A SHOT.
CHLOE: OK.
JAX: PIGGYBACK?
CHLOE: OK.
JAX: WHOA.
CHLOE: OH. OK.
JAX: CAREFUL.
CHLOE: THANK YOU.
JAX: ALL RIGHT.
COMFORTABLE?
CHLOE: MM-HMM.
JAX: OK.
HERE WE GO.
CHLOE: WHOO!
YEE-HAW!
JAX: WHOA!
CHLOE: AH!

TONY: I FIND NO SIGNIFICANT
CHANGE, STEFAN.
I'M SORRY.
AND WE REALLY CAN'T READ TOO
MUCH IN THE EYE MOVEMENT.
STEFAN: WELL, COULDN'T IT
MEAN SHE'S GETTING BETTER?
TONY: I'M AFRAID SHE'S GOING
TO BE LIKE THIS INDEFINITELY.
AND I KNOW HOW HARD YOU'RE
TRYING AND HOW MUCH YOU'RE
DOING, BUT YOUR MOTHER WOULD BE
BETTER OFF IN A FULL-CARE
FACILITY.
STEFAN: NO.
I WON'T ABANDON HER
TO STRANGERS.
TONY: I KNOW HOW TOUGH THESE
SITUATIONS ARE ON FAMILY,
BUT NO PRIVATE HOME CAN OFFER
HER THE NECESSARY AMOUNT
OF ATTENTION THAT SHE NEEDS
RIGHT NOW, NOT EVEN WYNDEMERE.
I JUST WANT YOU TO RECONSIDER.
STEFAN: ALL RIGHT, I WILL.
AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN.
TONY: I'LL CHECK
IN ON HER IN A FEW DAYS.
STEFAN: THAT WILL BE FINE.
TONY: HELENA.
STEFAN: THANK YOU, DOCTOR.
TONY: SURE.
STEFAN: WELL, NOW, MOTHER.
WHAT SHALL WE DO WITH YOU?

FELICIA: LUKE IS OUT THERE
SOMEWHERE ALONE.
BOBBIE: BUT THAT'S WHERE
HE WANTS TO BE.
FELICIA: I HAVE TO HELP HIM.
BOBBIE: BUT WHY DOES IT HAVE
TO BE ONLY YOU?
YOU KNOW I WILL DO ANYTHING
TO PROTECT MY BROTHER.
FELICIA: WELL, THEN YOU CAN
SEE WHY I CAN'T TELL MAC.
BOBBIE: MAC NEEDS TO KNOW
IF FAISON IS SETTING LUKE UP.
HE MAY NOT EVEN NEED TO CONTACT
INTERPOL.
HE'S VERY GOOD AT HIS JOB,
AND WE NEED HIS HELP.
FELICIA: MAC IS OBSESSED
WITH FAISON.
I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT
HE'LL DO.
BOBBIE: BUT WE HAVE
TO REMEMBER, THIS IS LUKTHAT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.
LUKE'S BEEN OUT THERE HAVING
THESE ADVENTURES FOR THE PAST
20 YEARS.
HE MAY KNOW THAT FAISON IS
KRIEG.
HE MAY HAVE SOME KIND
OF AN AGENDA WE WOULD NEVER EVEN
DREAM OF.
FELICIA: OR HE'S MISSING ALL
THE RED FLAGS.
BOBBIE: I DON'T THINK SO.
FELICIA: LUKE HAS BEEN
REELING EVER SINCE LUCKY DIED.
BOBBIE: YEAH.
AND I APPRECIATE YOU TRYING
TO HELP HIM.
BUT WHAT'S THIS REALLY ABOUT,
FELICIA?
MAYBE YOU'RE WORKING
ON AN OBSESSION OF YOUR OWN.

FELICIA: SO YOU WANT ME
TO JUST BACK OFF, LEAVE LUKE
STRANDED OUT THERE DEANG
WITH A LUNATIC, DOING BUSINESS
WITH A MAN WHO KILLED HIS BEST
FRIEND?
BOBBIE: YOU KNOW THAT ISN'T
WHAT I MEAN.
BUT LUKE DISAPPEARS LIKE THIS
FOR A REASON.
IT'S BECAUSE HE NEEDS THE SPACE
AND HE NEEDS THE DANGER.
FELICIA: THIS IS FAISON.
LUKE HAS NEVER ENCOUNTERED
ANYONE LIKE THIS BEFORE.
BOBBIE: WE CAN'T ASSUME THAT.
FELICIA: LUKE NEEDS TO KNOW.
BOBBIE: YOU'RE TRYING TO SAVE
HIM, AREN'T YOU?
FELICIA: SO WHAT IF I AM?
BOBBIE: BECAUSE IT CAN'T BE
DONE, FELICIA.
BELIEVE ME, I KNOW.
I'VE TRIED.
AND SO HAVE A LOT OF OTHER
PEOPLE.
IT NEVER WORKS, AND LUKE WILL
RESENT YOU FOR IT.
FELICIA: NO.
NO, NOT THIS TIME.
BOBBIE: YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
THAT LUKE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING.
THAT'S WHAT HE NEEDS MORE THAN
ANYTHING ELSE.
FELICIA: LUKE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO WATCH HIS BACK.
BOBBIE: YOU?
FELICIA: I'M NOT TRYING
TO SAVE LUKE OR MAKE HIS LIFE
BETTER OR BRING BACK SOMETHING
THAT HE LOST.
I JUST WANT TO WARN HIM ABOUT
FAISON, AND I DON'T THINK I'M
BEING UNREASONABLE.
NOW, YOU CAN EITHER HELP ME
OR NOT.
ELIZABETH: BOBBIE, I CAN'T
GET THE PIES OUT.
THE OVEN DOOR IS STUCK AGAIN.
BOBBIE: OK.
I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.
WE'RE NOT FINISHED.
WAIT FOR ME.

STEFAN: WHAT ABOUT
THE REHABILITATIVE SERVICES
CENTER IN HOUSTON?
YOU MIGHT ENJOY TEXAS, MOTHER.
THERE'S PLENTY OF ROOM TO MOVE
AROUND.
I UNDERSTAND THE PEOPLE ARE
FRIENDLY.
IS THAT A NO?
FAISON: TEXAS?
STEFAN'S VOICE: WELL,
NOW, WHAT ABOUT THE CLINIC
OF HOPE IN ZURICH?
IT SAYS HERE IT'S WORLD-RENOWN
FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH.
IN FACT, THE ANTIDOTE
FOR THE DRUG I GAVE YOU WAS
DEVELOPED THERE.
I'M SURE THE CARE IN ZURICH
WOULD BE EXCELLENT.
AND THE IRONY OF IT --
THE DRUG WOULD BE SO CLOSE,
AND YET YOU COULDN'T HAVE IT.
NO.
NO.
WHY PUT YOU IN THE SAME BUILDING
WITH THE ANTIDOTE WHEN
I CAN KEEP YOU A WORLD AWAY?
WE'LL TELL DR. JONES
WE APPRECIATE HIS CONCERN
BUT YOU BELONG HERE WITH ME.
FAISON: YEAH.
GET ME ON A FLIGHT TO ZURICH.
IMMEDIATELY.
THANKS.

TAGGERT: YOU KNOW,
THERE ARE FINES FOR LITTERING.
ELIZABETH: OH, LT. TAGGERT.
I WAS GOING TO PICK THAT UP.
TAGGERT: OH, I FIGURED.
SO, WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON THAT
YOU HATE SO MUCH?
ELIZABETH: IT'S NOT VERY
GOOD.
THAT'S WHY I CRUMPLED IT UP.
AND IF I CAN'T STAND TO LOOK
AT IT, THEN I DON'T WANT ANYBODY
ELSE TO.
TAGGERT: WELL, I CAN'T SAY
THAT I UNDERSTAND.
NO ONE'S EVER ACCUSED ME
OF BEING AN ARTIST.
CLOSEST I EVER GOT WAS SPRAY
PAINTING GRAFFITI AS A KID.
ELIZABETH: ISN'T THAT
VANDALISM?
TAGGERT: ABSOLUTELY.
AND I'M TAKING A HUGE LEAP
OF FAITH THAT YOU WON'T TELL
ANYBODY ABOUT MY CRIMINAL PAST.
ELIZABETH: I WISH LUCKY HAD
KNOWN THAT.
YOU KNOW, HE LIKED YOU A LOT
AT THE END.
AND HE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE LIKED
YOU EVEN MORE HAD HE KNOWN THAT,
YOU KNOW, MAYBE ONCE YOU MESSED
UP A LITTLE.
TAGGERT: OH, WELL, THERE WAS
A LOT MORE THAN JUST ONCE.
AND YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU KNOW, I WOULD HAVE LIKED
TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TELL LUCKY
THAT, TOO.
I LIKED HIM FROM THE START,
YOU KNOW.
I JUST DIDN'T WANT HIM MAKING
ANY MISTAKES OR A BAD CHOICE
THAT HE WOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY
FOR FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
OH.
I'M SORRY.
ELIZABETH: NODON'T BE.
LUCKY WAS AMAZING IN THAT WAY.
AND, YOU KNOW, HE MADE FRIENDS
IN PLACES THAT YOU WOULD NEVER
EVEN EXPECT.
FRIENDS THAT HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
HE HAD.
TAGGERT: I'M YOUR FRIEND,
TOO, ELIZABETH.
YOU KNOW THAT.
IF YOU EVER NEED ANYTHING,
I'D LIKE TO HELP.
ELIZABETH: I'M FINE.
YOU KNOW, SOMEAYS ARE HARD,
AND OTHER DAYS ARE REALLY GREAT.
I'M JUST TRYING TO STAY FOCUSED
ON THE FUTURE.
I'M STARTING COLLEGE THIS FALL.
TAGGERT: THAT'S GREAT.
ELIZABETH: YEAH, I'M MAJORING
IN FINE ARTS AT P.C.U., WHICH IS
WHY I DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO SEE
THIS BECAUSE THEY'D PROBABLY
KICK ME OUT BEFORE I EVEN GOT
STARTED.
TAGGERT: I DOUBT THAT.
I BET YOU'RE REALLY TALENTED.
ELIZABETH: OH, THANK YOU.
THE ONLY THING I AM RIGHT NOW IS
REALLY LATE.
I'M ON MY BREAK FROM WORK,
AND BOBBIE'S TRYING TO RUN
KELLY'S WITH A BROKEN STOVE.
TAGGERT: WELL, THEN I WON'T
KEEP YOU.
GOOD LUCK AT SCHOOL.
ELIZABETH: THANKS.
BYE.
TAGGERT: BYE.

[DOORBELL RINGS]
EDWARD: I PAY THAT BUTLER
GOOD WAGES TO ANSWER THAT DOOR,
AND, BY GOD, HE'S GOING
TO ANSWER IT.
[RING]
EDWARD: WHO WOULD EVER TAKE
A NANNY TO HAWAII, ANYWAY?
SHE'S PROBABLY LOLLING
ON THE BEACH SOMEWHERE WHILE I'M
FOOTING THE BILL.
REGINALD!
OH.
GERTRUDE: YOUR BUTLER NEEDS
A VACATION.
EDWARD: VACATION?
IS THAT WHAT HE TOLD YOU?
NOW HE'S HARASSING THE GUESTS,
AND I WON'T HAVE IT.
GERTRUDE: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
I WOULDN'T TALK TO HIM
RIGHT NOW.
EDWARD: WHY NOT?
I SIGN HIS PAYCHECKS.
GERTRUDE: WELL, WHEN
HE FINALLY ANSWERED THE DOOR,
ALL I SAID TO HIM WAS,
"THEY NEED TO GET YOU A LITTLE
HELP AROUND HERE," AND HE JUST
BURST INTO TEARS AND RAN
UPSTAIRS.
EDWARD: WELL, HE CAN DO
HIS CRYING IN THE UNEMPLOYMENT
LINE IF HE DOESN'T STOP THIS.
THERE OUGHT TO BE A LAW AGAINST
LOVESICK BUTLERS.
THERE PROBABLY IS.
HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE,
GERTRUDE?
IT ISN'T LUNCH TIME YET, IS IT?
GERTRUDE: EDWARD, YOU HAVE
A VERY STRANGE BUTLER,
BUT YOU HAVE HIRED SOME
EXCELLENT SPIES.
EDWARD: OH?
WHAT DID YOU FIND OUT?
GERTRUDE: JAX AND CHLOE NEVER
CAME HOME YESTERDAY.
EDWARD: CHLOE IS MISSING?
ARE YOU SURE?
GERTRUDE: POSITIVE.
EDWARD: BUT DO YOU HAVE ANY
IDEA WHERE SHE MIGHT BE?
HAVE YOU CALLED THE POLICE?
HERE --
GERTRUDE: EDWARD,
EDWARD, CALM DOWN.
THIS IS GOOD NEWS.
EDWARD: YOU MEAN WHILE NED
AND ALEXIS WERE GALLIVANTING ALL
OVER TOWN LAST NIGHT, CHLOE WAS
GONE AND WITH JAX?
OH.
GERTRUDE: EDWARD,
DON'T YOU GET IT?
THEY PROBABLY SET THIS UP
THEMSELVES, THE FOUR OF THEM.
BUT NOW WE'RE ONTO THEM.
OH, NO, EDWARD, THIS IS OUR BIG
BREAK.
EDWARD: NO, NO, NO.
I WARNED HER TO STAY AWAY
FROM THAT PIRATE.
WHAT IF THEY'VE LEFT
THE COUNTRY?
GERTRUDE: THAT WOULD BE EVEN
BETTER, WOULD GIVE US MORE
AMMUNITION.
WE COULD PROVE IT.
EDWARD: NOT IF WE DON'T KNOW
WHERE CHLOE IS.
GERTRUDE: OH, WELL,
YOUR SPIES ARE CHECKING EVERY
MOTEL ROOM IN TOWN.
EDWARD: NO, NO, NO.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE
THEY WON'T BE.
YOU DON'T KNOW JASPER JACKS.
HE IS A GAMBLER, AND HE'S
A DAREDEVIL AND A THIEF.
AND NED JUST STOOD BY AND JUST
ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN.
GERTRUDE: OH, THEY'RE
PROBABLY SLINKING BACK INTO TOWN
AS WE SPEAK.
EDWARD: I'M TELLING YOU,
IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO CHLOE
AS A RESULT OF THIS ESCAPADE,
LILA WILL NEVER GET OVER IT.
I MEAN IT.
SHE WON'T.
AND I AM VERY FOND OF CHLOE.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THEY'VE
GONE?
GERTRUDE: WELL, ALL I KNOW IS
THEY DIDN'T COME HOME LAST
NIGHT.
EDWARD: ALL RIGHT.
I'M GOING TO CALL THE PCPD
AND THE STATE POLICE
AND THE RIVER PATROL RIGHT NOW.
GERTRUDE: OH, YOU ARE JUST
AS BAD AS HERBERT, REST HIS POOR
DELUDED SOUL.
EDWARD, STOP IT.
A BIG SEARCH WILL TIP THEM OFF.
IT WILL GIVE THEM TIME TO MAKE
UP A STORY.
DIDN'T YOU SAY YOU WERE TIRED
OF CHASING THEM AROUND?
EDWARD: WELL, YES, BUT CHLOE
IS STILL MISSING.
GERTRUDE: WELL, NOW,
THERE'S MISSING AND THERE'S
SNEAKING AWAY.
OH, SHE'LL BE BACK.
IN THE MEANTIME, ALL WE HAVE
TO DO IS STAY CALM AND STAY OUT
OF THE WAY.
OH, THEY ARE PLAYING RIGHT
INTO OUR HANDS NOW, EDWARD.
EDWARD: HMM.

ALEXIS: SO THE HORSES
WANDERED BACK THIS MORNING?
MAN: THAT'S WHEN I CALLED
YOU, MRS. JACKS.
ALEXIS: THE HORSES WEREN'T
INJURED?
MAN: NO.
NED: DID IT SEEM STRANGE WHEN
JAX DIDN'T COME BACK LAST NIGHT?
MAN: MR. JACKS OFTEN RIDES
AFTER DARK.
NED: NOT WITH MY WIFE
HE DOESN'T.
MAN: I'LL CALL THE FOREST
RANGERS.
NED: NO, NO, DON'T DO THAT.
MR. JACKS IS NOTHING IF NOT
CAPABLE.
THERE'S NO NEED TO LAUNCH
AN ALL-OUT SEARCH FOR THEM.
MRS. JACKS AND I WILL HEAD OUT,
AND I'M SURE WE CAN FIND THEM.
MAN: YOUR CALL.
I'LL GIVE IT ANOTHER FEW HOURS,
BUT IF THEY'RE NOT BACK
BY NIGHTFALL --
NED: YEAH, I'LL CALL
THE AUTHORITIES.
ALEXIS: HE THINKS YOU SHOVED
THEM OFF A CLIFF.
NED: JAX IS GOING TO WISH
I WOULD HAVE.
ALEXIS: WHY ARE YOU BLAMING
HIM FOR ALL OF THIS?
NED: BECAUSE THIS IS CLASSIC
JASPER JACKS.
HE GOES OUT ON AN ADVENTURE,
SOMEBODY GETS HURT, AND SOMEBODY
ELSE HAS TO CLEAN UP THE MESS.
ALEXIS: AND WHAT ABOUT CHLOE?
IS SHE OFF SCOT-FREE?
I MEAN, SHE MISSED A VERY
CRITICAL L&B MEETING.
SHE LEFT NO PROVISIONS TO CALL
YOU OR ANYONE ELSE.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU'RE BLAMING JAX FOR ALL
OF IT.
NED: BECAUSE IF ANYONE FINDS
OUT ABOUT THIS, CHLOE LOSES
EVERYTHING.
JAX WON'T.
ALEXIS: UNLESS WE COUNT
HIS FAMILY, WHO WILL BE
DEVASTATED, I MIGHT ADD.
WHY ARE WE ARGUING ABOUT THIS?
NED: I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE.
ALEXIS: WE CAN'T.
THE GROOM IS PROBABLY
WATCHING US.
NED: RIGHT.
FOR ALL WE KNOW, HE PROBABLY
ALREADY CONTACTED THE FOREST
RANGERS AND THIS WHOLE CHARADE
IS OVER.
JAX: WHAT CHARADE?
DID YOU MISS US?

NED: PUT MY WIFE DOWN.
JAX: HI, HONEY.
I'M HOME.
I'M SORRY I'M SO LATE.
ALEXIS: I WAS BEGINNING
TO WONDER, DEAR.
NED: PUT MY WIFE DOWN.
JAX: IS HE ALWAYS THIS CRANKY
IN THE MORNINGS?
CHLOE: JAX, PLEASE.
JAX: OK.
CHLOE: OH.
JAX: ALL RIGHT.
NED: WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER,
JAX?
CHLOE: NO, IT WAS COMPLETELY
MY FAULT.
NED: DID YOU RACE THE HORSES?
SEE WHO COULD JUMP THE BIGGEST
DITCH?
CHLOE: I SHOULDN'T HAVE TRIED
GETTING ON WITHOUT A LEG UP.
NED: WHAT, YOU COULDN'T HELP
HER ON THE HORSE?
JAX: SYLVAN BOLTED.
CHLOE: SYLVAN SAW A SNAKE.
PLEASE, DON'T BLAME JAX.
DID THE HORSES COME BACK?
ALEXIS: THE HORSES ARE FINE.
CHLOE: POOR SYLVAN.
I WAS IN SUCH A RUSH TO COME
BACK --
ALEXIS: CELL PHONES ARE
USUALLY FASTER THAN HORSES --
AND SAFER.
NED: THAT'S RIGHT.
DID IT EVEN OCCUR TO YOU TO TAKE
A CELL PHONE, JAX?
JAX: WE WANTED TO GET AWAY
FROM EVERYTHING, OK?
NED: YEAH.
WELL, IT WORKED.
CHLOE: NED, I'M SO SORRY
ABOUT MR. WOODMAN.
WAS HE ANGRY?
WE LOST THE CLIENT, DIDN'T WE?
ALEXIS: THE CLIENT'S FINE.
NED: THANKS TO ALEXIS.
CHLOE: OH, THANK YOU.
WHATEVER YOU DID MUST HAVE BEEN
BRILLIANT.
THIS WAS SO UNFAIR TO BOTH
OF YOU.
JAX: SO WHERE'S THE HARM?
WE'RE SAFE.
YOU STILL HAVE YOUR CLIENT.
AND THE HORSES ARE FINE.
ALEXIS: AND JERRY DOESN'T
KNOW THAT YOU SPENT THE NIGHT
WITH CHLOE, WHICH MEANS THAT
YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER DON'T
KNOW, EITHER.
JAX: THANK YOU, ALEXIS.
NED: AND WHAT IF THERE HAD
BEEN A SEARCH?
ALEXIS: THE GROOM WAS ABOUT
TO SEND FOR THE FOREST RANGERS.
NED: CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT
GERTRUDE AND GRANDFATHER COULD
DO WITH THIS?
JAX: YEAH, BUT THEY WON'T.
WE'RE BACK, OK?
NED: OH, SO I -- THAT MAKES
EVERYTHING OK?
IS THAT IT?
JAX: COME ON, NED.
WE NEEDED A BREAK.
AND SO DID CHLOE.
ALL RIGHT, NOW, I SHOULD HAVE
TAKEN A CELL PHONE.
NEXT TIME I WILL.
BUT I'M SICK OF PRETENDING
AND HIDING AND LOOKING OVER
MY SHOULDER EVERY TWO SECONDS.
CHLOE AND I HAVE COVERED
FOR YOU AND ALEXIS.
WHY CAN'T YOU DO THE SAME
FOR US?
NED: HOW CAN WE COVER
FOR YOU WHEN WE DON'T KNOW WHERE
YOU ARE?
JAX: OH, SO MUCH
FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.
NED: IF THERE HAD BEEN
A SEARCH, CHLOE WOULD HAVE LOST
HER COMPANY.
OR DON'T YOU EVEN CARE?
JAX: BUT THERE WASN'T
A SEARCH.
CHLOE STILL HAS HER COMPANY,
AND WE'RE STILL PULLING
THIS OFF.
NED: YOU KNOW, YOU ARE
THE MOST SELFISH PERSON I'VE
EVER MET.
AND COMING FROM MY FAMILY,
THAT SAYS A LOT.
AND THAT'S WHY I'LL NEVER GO
INTO BUSINESS WITH YOU,
JAX, BECAUSE YOU CAN ONLY THINK
OF ONE PERSPECTIVE -- YOURS.
ALEXIS: AT LEAST HE CARRIED
HER ALL THE WAY FROM GOD KNOWS
WHERE.
I MEAN, LET'S GIVE HIM CREDIT
FOR THAT, AT LEAST, ALL RIGHT?
JAX: THANK YOU.
SHE WOULDN'T HAVE MADE IT
WITHOUT ME.
CHLOE: HE ONLY CARRIED ME
FROM THE PARKING LOT.
JAX: EXCUSE ME?
AND HOW DID YOU GET
TO THE COUNTRY ROAD?
ALL ON YOUR OWN?
CHLOE: I COULD HAVE MADE IT.
JAX: NOT IN THIS LIFETIME.
CHLOE: WE FLAGGED DOWN A CAR
AND RODE MOST OF THE WAY.
NED: OH, GREAT.
NOW THERE'S WITNESSES.
JAX: NO, MATE, THEY THOUGHT
WE WERE TOURISTS FROM SYDNEY.
NED: FOR ALL WE KNOW,
THEY COULD BE WORKING
FOR GRANDFATHER.
ALEXIS: ALL RIGHT,
GUYS, COME ON.
WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER, RIGHT?
AND WHAT ONE DOES AFFECTS
THE OTHER.
CAN WE AT LEAST AGREE ON THAT?
CHLOE: YES.
ALEXIS: GOOD.
CHLOE: FROM NOW ON.
JAX: SURE.
NED: YEAH. RIGHT.
ALEXIS: FINE.
I'M GOING TO GO MAKE SURE THAT
THE GROOM DOESN'T CALL THE STATE
TROOPERS.
JAX: OK, I'M GOING TO CARRY
CHLOE TO THE CAR.
COME ON.

ELIZABETH: WOW.
YOU'RE HIRED.
NIKOLAS: I WISH.
ELIZABETH: THE INTERVIEW
DIDN'T GO WELL?
NIKOLAS: WHO KNOWS?
I DIDN'T GET THE JOB.
IT'S A SMALL ADVERTISING FIRM.
A LOT LESS MONEY THAN DECEPTION,
BUT --
ELIZABETH: YOU'LL GET
THE NEXT ONE.
NIKOLAS: QUITTING DECEPTION
SO SUDDENLY LOOKS BAD
ON MY RESUME.
I CAN'T TRUST KATHERINE TO GIVE
ME A GOOD RECOMMENDATION,
SO I DON'T HAVE ANY AT ALL.
I DON'T HAVE ANY REAL JOB
EXPERIENCE.
MY LAST NAME CERTAINLY CAN'T
HELP.
OTHER CANDIDATES, THEY PROBABLY
NEED THE MONEY.
ELIZABETH: YOU DIDN'T SAY ALL
THIS IN YOUR INTERVIEW, DID YOU?
NIKOLAS: I DON'T THINK SO.
ELIZABETH: DO YOU WANT ME
TO LOOK AT YOUR RESUME?
MAYBE I CAN HELP SHARPEN IT UP.
WE CAN DO SOME PRACTICE
INTERVIEWS.
NIKOLAS: YEAH, THANK YOU.
I MEAN, THE SOONER, THE BETTER.
ELIZABETH: I STILL DON'T
UNDERSTAND WHY YOU NEED A JOB,
LIKE, RIGHT THIS SECOND.
NIKOLAS: I CAN'T THINK
OF ANYTHING ELSE TO DO.
KATHERINE HAS ALL THE POWER
IN THIS SITUATION, AND A JOB IS
SOMETHING I CAN CONTROL.
ELIZABETH: I WISH I COULD
MAKE THIS ALL GO AWAY.
NIKOLAS: I TRIED THAT.
IT DOESN'T WORK.
ELIZABETH: ARE YOU SURE
THERE'S NOTHING ELSE YOU CAN DO?
I MEAN, WHY GET SADDLED
WITH A JOB YOU HATE ALONG
WITH A CHILD YOU DIDN'T EXPECT?
NIKOLAS: MAYBE I CAN FIND
A WAY TO GET ALONG WITH
KATHERINE.
ELIZABETH: SOMETHING BESIDES
THAT.
NIKOLAS: OK, WELL,
SHUTTING KATHERINE OUT HELPS
HER USE THE CHILD AGAINST ME.
I'VE BEEN USED AS A WEAPON
BEFORE, AND I KNOW HOW IT FEELS.
AND I -- NOBODY'S GOING TO DO
THAT TO MY CHILD.
ESPECIALLY NOT KATHERINE.

KATHERINE: OH, WELL, I HOPE
THIS WAS WORTH MY WAIT.
I'M A VERY BUSY WOMAN.
DR. KALE: WE CAN IMPLANT
THE FERTILIZED EGGS BY THE END
OF THE WEEK.
KATHERINE: THAT'S WONDERFUL.
DR. KALE: NOW, YOU WILL NEED
TO STOP BY TOMORROW SO WE CAN
DOUBLE-CHECK YOUR HORMONE LEVEL.
KATHERINE: I'LL BE HERE.
DR. KALE: YOU SHOULD BE
PREGNANT IN NO TIME AT ALL.
KATHERINE: EXCELLENT.

BOBBIE: I'M SORRY I TOOK
SO LONG.
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO BREAK DOWN
AND REPLACE THAT OVEN.
FELICIA: I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO BE RUDE EARLIER
TO YOU.
BOBBIE: IT'S OK.
I UNDERSTAND.
FELICIA: I KNOW THAT YOU'D DO
ANYTHING TO HELP YOUR BROTHER.
BOBBIE: LUKE ISN'T THE ONLY
ONE I'M WORRIED ABOUT.
HEY, MAYBE SONNY KNOWS WHERE
LUKE IS.
FELICIA: I LEFT HIM MESSAGES.
HE WON'T RETURN MY CALLS.
BOBBIE: WELL, MAYBE IT'S
WORTH ANOTHER SHOT.
MAYBE IF YOU WENT TO SEE SONNY
IN PERSON.
FELICIA: YEAH.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
THANKS.
FAISON: MRS. SCORPIO.
FELICIA: HERR KRIEG.
FAISON: YEAH.
OR WHATEVER.
FELICIA: WHAT HAVE YOU DONE
WITH LUKE?
FAISON: I JUST CAME TO SAY
GOOD-BYE.
FELICIA: WELL, WAIT.
YOU CAN'JUST LEAVE.
WHERE'S LUKE?

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

SONNY: IF YOU THINK I'M
HIDING SOMETHING, JUST ASK.

MONICA: THERE ARE SOME
RESTRICTIONS WE NEED TO DISCUSS.

NIKOLAS: TO LOOK AT YOU,
NO ONE WOULD EVER KNOW.
KATHERINE: EVERYONE WILL,
SOON ENOUGH.

FELICIA: THE MAN THAT COULD
BE AFTER LUKE IS FAISON.

JASON: IS ROBIN SAFE?
