ALEXIS: SORRY JERRY WASN'T
HONEST WITH YOU.
JAX: WELL, TO TELL
YOU THE TRUTH, I NEVER REALLY
THOUGHT HE WOULD BE.
YOU KNOW, I GAVE HIM A CHANCE
TO COME CLEAN.
THEN I PRESENTED HIM
WITH THE EVIDENCE THAT HE WAS
LAUNDERING MONEY, AND HE STILL
WOULDN'T TELL ME THE TRUTH.
ALEXIS: EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T
EXPECT IT, IT STILL MUST HAVE
HURT WHEN HE DIDN'T TELL
YOU THE TRUTH.
JAX: YOU KNOW WHAT?
HE DIDN'T JUST LIE.
HE PLAYED THE INJURED PARTY.
ACCORDING TO JERRY NOW,
THE REASON THAT I DON'T TRUST
HIM IS BECAUSE OF SONNY
CORINTHOS.
ALEXIS: DIDN'T YOU TELL HIM
THAT IT WAS MY IDEA TO GO
TO SONNY?
JAX: AH, IT WOULDN'T HAVE
MADE ANY DIFFERENCE.
DAMN, JERRY.
YOU KNOW, IF HE WOULD JUST
COOPERATE, I COULD GET HIM OUT
OF TROUBLE.
BUT IF HE FIGHTS ME ON THIS,
HE'S ONLY GOING TO MAKE IT
HARDER ON HIMSELF.
ALEXIS: NEVER STOPPED
YOU BEFORE.
JAX: THANKS FOR TRYING
TO CHEER ME UP.
I'M GOING TO MISS THAT.
ALEXIS: MISS WHAT?
JAX: KEEPING JERRY OUT
OF JAIL IS GOING TO BE A LONG
AND DIFFICULT PROCESS.
FIRST THING THAT WE HAVE TO DO
IS GET A DIVORCE.

NED: HELLO, WIFE.
CHLOE: HELLO, HUSBAND.
HOW WAS YOUR TRIP?
NED: OH, FANTASTIC.
BROOKE AND I STAYED
AT THE CARLYLE.
I TOOK HER EVERY DAY TO SCHOOL.
MMM.
CHLOE: OOH.
NED: I ATTENDED PARENT
ORIENTATION.
CHLOE: HOW WAS THAT?
NED: IT WAS A REVELATION.
I'VE SEEN CORPORATE MERGERS
WITH LESS PAPERWORK.
BUT IT WAS NICE MEETING
THE OTHEPARENTS AND MEETING
BROOKE'S TEACHERS.
CHLOE: MM-HMM.
NED: I FELT LIKE A HANDS-ON
DAD FOR THE FIRST TIME.
CHLOE: YOU ARE.
JUST ASK BROOKE LYNN.
NED: EVERY DAY BROOKE LYNN
AND I WENT TO SOMEPLACE
DIFFERENT.
WE WENT TO CENTRAL PARK.
I TOOK HER TO SEE
"THE LION KING" ON BROADWAY.
WE SAW THE STATUE OF LIBERTY,
WHICH OF COURSE I'D FLOWN OVER
IN A HELICOPTER, BUT I'D NEVER
ACTUALLY BEEN INSIDE.
SO THAT WAS NICE, SEEING THAT
FOR THE FIRST TIME WITH
MY LITTLE GIRL.
CHLOE: HMM.
NED: I WAS ALMOST SORRY
TO SEE LOIS COME HOME.
CHLOE: WAS THAT HARD FOR YOU,
BEING WITH HER?
NED: NO, NO.
LOIS AND I GET ALONG FINE.
ALL OF OUR ATTENTION IS
ON BROOKE LYNN.
THAT'S AS FAR AS IT GOES.
I JUST MISS MY LITTLE GIRL.
BUT HER BIRTHDAY'S COMING UP,
SO I'LL SEE HER THEN.
SO, WHAT DID I MISS HERE?
ANYTHING?
CHLOE: OH, LET'S SEE.
ALAN SUGGESTED EDWARD TRADE
IN THE BENTLEY FOR A NEW CAR,
AND EDWARD SULKED FOR TWO DAYS.
NED: I BET.
CHLOE: MICHAEL HAS BEEN
PLAYING EVERY MOMENT
IN THE LEAVES -- THAT HE'S
AWAKE.
COOK CAME OUT WITH AN
APPLE NUT PIE, TO RAVE REVIEWS.
AND I WOULD LIKE TO GET
A DIVORCE.
LUKE: GUTEN ABEND, HERR KRIEG.
YOU HAVE REAL TALENT.
YOU SHOULD OPEN A SCHOOL
FOR THIEVES.

TAGGERT: I WAS NOTIFIED
OF AN ACCIDENT ON THE PREMISES.
CAN YOU GIVE ME ANY DETAILS?
NIKOLAS: MY FIANCEE FELL
FROM THE PARAPET.
WE WERE GOING TO BE MARRIED
TONIGHT, AND SHE WAS PREGNANT
WITH MY CHILD.
TAGGERT: I'M SORRY.
DID YOU WITNESS THE FALL?
NIKOLAS: I CAME OUT HERE,
AND SHE WAS LYING ON
THE GROUND --
LIKE LAST TIME,
PERFECTLY STILL.
TAGGERT: DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHAT MISS BELL WAS DOING
ON THE PARAPET?
SHE ALMOST DIED THERE
A YEAR AGO.
WHY WOULD SHE GO BACK?

LAURA: YOU PUSHED KATHERINE
OVER THE PARAPET?
NO.
NO, YOU COULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT.
STEFAN: IT WASN'T
INTENTIONAL.
I DIDN'T PLAN IT.
IT SIMPLY HAPPENED.
LAURA: HOW?
STEFAN: I --
I HEARD ARGUING.
I CAME UP HERE TO INVESTIGATE.
LAURA: THAT WAS KATHERINE
AND ME.
I TOLD YOU THAT.
STEFAN: BY THE TIME
I ARRIVED, KATHERINE WAS ALONE.
WE HAD WORDS.
IT BECAME HEATED.
SHE ADMITTED TO ME
THAT SHE SEDUCED NIKOLAS
TO GET BACK AT ME,
TOLD ME THAT I HAD LOST HIM
FOR GOOD THE NIGHT OF
OUR ENGAGEMENT PARTY.
SHE SAID THAT HE WAS THE PRICE
I PAID FOR MY BETRAYAL
FOR LOVING YOU MORE THAN HER.
I LOOKED AT HER FACE.
IT WAS SO SMUG,
SO HATEFUL.
MY MIND WENT DARK WITH RAGE.
NEXT THING I KNEW, I WAS
AT THE RAILING.
KATHERINE WAS ON THE GROUND
BELOW.

LAURA: YOU CAN NEVER TELL
ANYONE THIS -- NOT EVEN
AN ATTORNEY.
AND DEFINILY NOT NIKOLAS.
STEFAN: LAURA, IF I IN FACT
KILLED HER --
LAURA: KATHERINE HAS HURT US
ALL ENOUGH.
SHE'S NOT GOING TO COST
YOU YOUR SON, TOO.
STEFAN: QUESTIONS WILL BE
ASKED.
NO ONE WILL BELIEVE THIS WAS
AN ACCIDENT.
LAURA: SHE HAD PLENTY
OF ENEMIES.
ANYONE COULD HAVE DONE IT.
MAKE SURE THAT YOU DIDN'T LEAVE
ANYTHING BEHIND.
IF THERE'S NO EVIDENCE,
THEY CAN'T PROVE ANYTHING.
STEFAN: THIS CAN'T WORK.
LAURA: WHY NOT?
WHY NOT?
IF ANYONE ASKS, JUST SAY THAT
WE WERE BOTH DOWNSTAIRS WHEN IT
HAPPENED.
STEFAN: LAURA, I CAN'T EXPECT
YOU TO DO THIS.
LAURA: IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
YES.
YES, YOU HATED HER,
BUT YOU DIDN'T MEAN
FOR HER TO GO OVER THE PARAPET.
SHE THREATENED YOU.
SHE THREATENED TO SEPARATE
YOU FROM YOUR CHILD, AND YOU GOT
ANGRY.
AND FOR A MOMENT, YOU JUST
COULDN'T THINK.
I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.
I FELT THE SAME WAY.
STEFAN: SHE HAD LOST ALL
REASON, ALL SENSE OF RESTRAINT.
LAURA: YES. YES.
AND SO DID I.
THE MOMENT THOSE WORDS LEFT
HER MOUTH, I WANTED NOTHING MORE
THAN TO JUST SEE HER DEAD.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
MRS. LANSBURY: EXCUSE ME,
SIR.
STEFAN: YES.
MRS. LANSBURY: THE POLICE
REQUEST YOUR PRESENCE
DOWNSTAIRS.
STEFAN: UH-HUH.
LAURA: HAVE THEY SPOKEN
TO NIKOLAS YET?
MRS. LANSBY: WELL,
THEY WERE IN THE PROCESS
AS I LEFT.
LAURA: I DON'T WANT HIM
TO FACE THEM ALONE.
WE SHOULD GO DOWN.
Remember what I said.
MRS. LANSBURY: SIR?
STEFAN: YES?
MRS. LANSBURY: THE POLICE
WANT TO QUESTION ME, TOO.
THEY WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING
I SAW.
STEFAN: WELL, AT'S STANDARD
POLICE PROCEDURE, MRS. LANSBURY.
THERE'S NO NEED TO BE ALARMED.
MRS. LANSBURY: WELL,
DO YOU STILL WANT ME TO SAY THAT
I FOUND MISS BELL'S BODY AFTER
SHE FELL?
STEFAN: YES, I DO.
MRS. LANSBURY: AND NOT
TO MENTION THE BLOND FIGURE
I SAW ON THE PARAPET?
STEFAN: I MEANT TO CLARIFY
THAT WITH YOU EARLIER.
DID YOU HAVE A -- DID YOU HAVE
A CLEAR VIEW OF THIS PERSON?
MRS. LANSBURY: WELL,
EVERYTHING WENT BY SO QUICKLY.
I LOOKED UP, AND --
STEFAN: SO THEN IT WAS
NOTHING MORE THAN A FLEETING
GLIMPSE.
MRS. LANSBURY: YES.
STEFAN: BUT THE EYES CAN
SO EASILY PLAY TRICKS
IN THE DARKNESS.
AND I ASSUME YOU WERE DISTRAUGHT
OVER SEEING MISS BELL
IN THE COURTYARD?
MRS. LANSBURY: OH,
YES, OF COURSE.
STEFAN: MOMENTARILY FROZEN,
PERHAPS EVEN DISORIENTED?
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.
IN ORDER TO AVOID CONFUSION,
MAY I SUGGEST THAT YOU TELL
THE POLICE ONLY THAT OF WHICH
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN.
WHICH IS?
MRS. LANSBURY: THAT I FOUND
THE BODY LYING IN THE COURTYARD.
STEFAN: PRECISELY.
YOUR DISCRETION AND LOYALTY HAVE
ALWAYS BEEN A SOURCE OF COMFORT
TO ME, MRS. LANSBURY.
I TRUST I CAN CONTINUE TO DEPEND
ON THEM.
MRS. LANSBURY: OH, YES, SIR.
STEFAN: COME.
I'LL ESCORT YOU DOWN.
HELENA: YOU LOVE-BEFUDDLED
IDIOT.
YOUR CONCERN FOR YOUR PRECIOUS
LAURA HAS YOU CONFESSING
TO A CRIME YOU DIDN'T COMMIT.

TAGGERT: THIS BEING
HER WEDDING NIGHT, I ASSUME
SHE WAS IN HIGH SPIRITS.
NIKOLAS: THAT'S RIGHT.
TAGGERT: ANYTHING HAPPEN
TO CHANGE THAT?
NIKOLAS: WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
TAGGERT: FAMILY ARGUMENT,
BAD NEWS FROM AN OUTSIDE SOURCE.
NIKOLAS: NOT THAT I KNOW OF.
TAGGERT: WHAT ABOUT ENEMIES?
WAS THERE ANYBODY ON
THE PREMISES THAT MIGHT WANT
TO HURT HER?
NIKOLAS: NO, NOT THAT I CAN
THINK OF.
TAGGERT: WELL, MAYBE
YOU BETTER THINK A LITTLE HARDER
BECAUSE, FROM WHAT I CAN SEE,
THE RAILING ISN'T BROKEN.
SO UNLESS YOUR FIANCEE JUMPED,
WHICH IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY SINCE
SHE WAS PREGNANT AND ABOUT TO BE
MARRIED, SOMEONE PUSHED HER.
NIKOLAS: IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
DON'T GO SEARCHING FOR CRIMES
WHERE THEY DON'T EXIST.
TAGGERT: AHEM.
DID YOU HAPPEN TO SEE ANYTHING,
ELIZABETH?
ELIZABETH: NO.
TAGGERT: WOULD YOU MIND ME
ASKING WHERE YOU WERE
AT THE TIME OF THE --
OF MISS BELL'S FALL?
ELIZABETH: I WAS INSIDE
THE HOUSE WITH NIKOLAS' LITTLE
SISTER.
SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
THE FLOWER GIRL, SO I WAS
HELPING HER GET READY.
AND THEN MRS. LANSBURY,
THE HOUSEKEEPER, CAME INSIDE
AND TOLD US WHAT HAPPENED,
SO I CAME OUT HERE AND FOUND
NIKOLAS WITH KATHERINE.
TAGGERT: WHERE WERE YOU WHEN
YOUR FIANCEE FELL?
NIKOLAS: I SUPPOSE I WAS
IN MY OLD ROOM, DRESSING
FOR THE CEREMONY.
DARA: DO YOU HAVE A WITNESS
TO THAT EFFECT?

NED: YOU WANT TO DUMP ME
AFTER I WORKED SO HARD AT BEING
THE IDEAL HUSBAND?
CHLOE: I HAVE BEEN THINKING
ABOUT THIS A LOT WHILE YOU WERE
AWAY, AND I REALIZE IT'S
NO LONGER FAIR FOR EVERYONE
TO BE LIVING THEIR LIVES AROUND
MY PROBLEM.
NED: MIGHT THIS HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH YOUR CONCERN THAT JAX
IS FALLING FOR ALEXIS?
CHLOE: NO.
I'M OVER IT.
NED: THEN WHAT'S CHANGED?
CHLOE: YOU AND ALEXIS BELONG
TOGETHER.
YOU SHOULD BE TOGETHER.
JAX AND I ARE GETTING CLOSER
EVERY DAY.
THIS ARRANGEMENT ISN'T SUITING
ANYONE.
NED: THIS IS COMING FROM JAX,
ISN'T IT?
CHLOE: NO.
WHY?
NED: BECAUSE IT SOUNDS
SUSPICIOUSLY LIKE THE WAY
HE DOES BUSINESS.
HE FINDS A SUCCESSFUL
ENTERPRISE, AND THEN HE TAKES IT
APART.
CHLOE: CAN YOU HONESTLY SAY
YOU THINK OUR ARRANGEMENT IS
SUCCESSFUL?
NED: OF COURSE.
WE'VE MANAGED TO KEEP
AUNT GERTRUDE AND GRANDFATHER
AT BAY.
EVERYONE IN THE COMMUNITY HAS
ACCEPTED US AS MARRIED COUPLES.
YOU'RE HOLDING ON TO
YOUR COMPANY.
I AM EXPANDING L&B THE WAY
I PLANNED.
EVERYTHING IS WORKING OUT JUST
FINE.
WHY QUIT NOW?
CHLOE: WELL, THE FACT IS EACH
ONE OF US IS LIVING A LIE.
NED: CHLOE, LOOK -- NEITHER
ONE OF US CAN MAKE THIS DECISION
ON OUR OWN, SO INSTEAD
OF DEBATING THIS BETWEEN
OURSELVES, I SUGGEST THAT
WE INCLUDE JAX AND ALEXIS.
CHLOE: NOW?
NED: NO TIME LIKE
THE PRESENT.
AND BESIDES, IT'S BEEN WAY TOO
LONG SINCE I KISSED ALEXIS
GOOD NIGHT, WHICH I PLAN
ON DOING WHETHER YOU DIVORCE ME
OR NOT.
AND YOU GET TO SEE JAX.
CHLOE: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
THAT'S NOT FAIR.
NED: WHAT?
CHLOE: BEING WONDERFUL WHEN
I'M TRYING TO BREAK UP WITH YOU.
NED: OH, YOU SEE,
DIDN'T I WARN YOU?
I'M NEVER FAIR.
IN FACT, I'M HABITUALLY SNEAKY
AND UNDERHANDED.
IT'S PART OF MY CHARM.

ALEXIS: I THINK I'M INSULTED.
NO, WAIT -- I AM INSULTED.
WHAT HAVE I DONE?
HAVEN'T I BEEN A GOOD WIFE?
I MICROWAVE YOUR POPCORN
WHENEVER YOU'RE HUNGRY.
I TAKE LABORIOUS HIKES
WITH YOUR MOTHER, AND I NEVER
COMPLAIN -- MUCH.
AND I TURN A BLIND EYE
TO YOUR INFIDELI -- WHICH IS
REALLY MY INFIDELITY
AT THE MOMENT BECAUSE
YOU AND CHLOE ARE STILL REALLY
IN THE FLIRTING STAGE.
ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME
WITH SOMEONE ELSE?
JAX: OK, ENOUGH.
LOOK, DON'T THINK I DON'T
APPRECIATE WHAT YORE TRYING
TO DO.
BUT THE FACT REMAINS TRYING
TO SAVE JERRY COULD RUIN ME.
I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE MY WIFE
DOWN WITH ME.
THAT'S WHY IT IS IMPORTANT
FOR US TO GET DIVORCED AS SOON
AS POSSIBLE.
ALEXIS: SORRY.
I'M NOT GOING TO LET YOU DIVEST
ME LIKE SOME COMPANY
YOU NO LONGER WANT IN
YOUR PORTFOLIO.
JAX: YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT IT.
ALEXIS: YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY
BOTHERS ME ABOUT THIS,
JAX, IS THAT YOU ARE TURNING
YOURSELF INSIDE OUT TO HELP
SOMEONE WHO WON'T TELL
YOU THE TRUTH EVEN WHEN HE'S
CONFRONTED BY THE EVIDENCE.
JAX: LOOK, THIS ISN'T ABOUT
WHAT JERRY'S DONE.
IT'S ABOUT WHO HE IS.
I MEAN, THIS IS THE GUY WHO
TAUGHT ME HOW TO THROW A LEFT
HOOK, HOW TO ASK A GIRL OUT
ON A DATE, WHERE TO SIT
IN A BUSINESS MEETING IN ORDER
TO GET THE UPPER HAND.
YOU KNOW, MY LOYALTY TO HIM MAY
BE FRUSTRATING, BUT IT'S BASED
ON SOMETHING REAL.
HE'S MY BROTHER.
I'M NOT GOING TO LET HIM GO DOWN
WITHOUT A FIGHT.
ALEXIS: AND I'M YOUR WIFE,
AND I'M NOT GOING TO LET
YOU HANDLE THIS BY YOURSELF.
JAX: OK.
MAY I REMIND YOU THAT YOU'RE
MY WIFE IN NAME ONLY?
ALEXIS: THIS IS TRUE.
BUT I AM YOUR FRIEND IN EVERY
POSSIBLE WAY.
JAX: YES, AND YOU'RE ALSO
A RESPECTED ATTORNEY.
AND BEING ASSOCIATED
WITH A MONEY-LAUNDERING SCAM
FOR ORGANIZED CRIME COULD RUIN
YOUR CAREER.
ALEXIS: IT'LL LOOK A LOT
WORSE IF I ABANDON MY HUSBAND
WHEN HE'S IN NEED.
JAX: HOW DID I EVER GET STUCK
WITH A STUBBORN, INTELLIGENT,
CUTE LITTLE WIFE LIKE YOU?
ALEXIS: "CUTE LITTLE" --
YOU'RE LUCKY, I GUESS.
WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER.
WHATEVER YOU NEED, WHENEVER
YOU NEED IT, I'LL BE THERE.
DO YOU WANT ME TO SING?
I WON'T.
DON'T WORRY.

LUKE: MAY I OFFER YOU COFFEE?
I HAVE IT SPECIALLY DELIVERED.
FAISON: I WANT MY DIAMONDS.
LUKE: SO MUCH FOR
HOSPITALITY, HUH?
YOU KNOW, THE NEXT TIME YOU COME
IN HERE LIKE THIS, I WILL SHOOT
YOU IN THE BACK.
FAISON: YOU'RE A MAN OF GREAT
AUDACITY, SPENCER.
SWITCHING THE BAGS ON ME
IN MEXICO WAS BOLD.
LUKE: THANK YOU.
BOLD IS HOW I DRINK MY COFFEE.
FAISON: HOWEVER, I PAID
YOU TO TRANSPORT THE DIAMONDS.
YOU HAVE YET TO DELIVER THEM.
LUKE: THAT'S TRUE.
HOWEVER, YOU DID RELIEVE ME
OF A SATCHEL FULL OF CUBIC
ZIRCONIUM IN THE DESERT,
AND THAT WAS NOT CHEAP.
FAISON: JUST REMEMBER,
SPENCER --
DIAMONDS ARE NOT THE ONLY ITEMS
OF VALUE THAT CAN BE REMOVED
OM ONE'S LIFE.
LUKE: YES, YOU'VE MADE THAT
VAGUE THREAT BEFORE.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE MORE
SPECIFIC?

JAX: THANK YOU.
ALEXIS: WHAT DO YOU THINK?
JAX: MMM.
THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE
OF YOUR BETTER BATCHES.
ALEXIS: OH, SEE?
I KNEW IT!
IT'S ALL IN THE TIMING.
YOU GOT TO GET THE BAG OUT
OF THE MICROWAVE RIGHT WHEN
THE POPPING STARTS TO SLOW DOWN.
JAX: YOU KNOW, IT'S
COMFORTING TO KNOW THAT WHEN
JERRY GOES TO PRISON AND WE LOSE
EVERYTHING, AT LEAST WE WON'T
STARVE.
ALEXIS: IF WE CAN AFFORD
A MICROWAVE.
JAX: MY POINT EXACTLY.
LOOK, ALEXIS --
ALEXIS: OH, HERE WE GO AGAIN.
YOU JUST CAN'T LET IT GO,
CAN YOU?
ALL RIGHT, GIVE ME A THOUSAND
REASONS WHY WE SHOULD GET
DIVORCED.
JAX: NO, THAT'S NOT IT.
I'M JUST WONDERING IF NED
REALIZES WHAT AN EXTRAORDINARY
PERSON YOU ARE.
ALEXIS: OH, WELL, YOU CAN
FEEL FREE TO TELL HIM THAT
ANYTIME.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
JAX: ARE YOU EXPECTING
SOMEONE?
ALEXIS: UH-UH.
JAX: PROBABLY JUST EDWARD
SENDING UP THE CONCIERGE
TO CHECK ON US.
HEY!
CHLOE: HEY.
NED: HEY.
ALEXIS: HONEY!
NED: HI, SWEETHEART.
ALEXIS: OH, I MISSED
YOU SO MUCH.
NED: I MISSED YOU, TOO.
CHLOE: I'M SORRY FOR BARGING
IN SO LATE.
JAX: THERE'S NO APOLOGY
NECESSARY.
ALEXIS: HOW WAS YOUR TRIP?
NED: IT WAS GREAT.
ALEXIS: AND BROOKE LYNN?
NED: IT WAS REALLY HARD
TO SAY GOOD-BYE.
ALEXIS: HOW WERE
"THE LION KING" TICKETS THAT
I GOT YOU?
WERE THEY GOOD?
NED: THEY WERE PERFECT.
I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT
LATER.
FIRST -- FIRST, EVERYONE --
CHLOE NEEDS TO KNOW IF WE'RE ALL
STILL OK ABOUT OUR RESPECTIVE
MARRIAGES OF CONVENIENCE.
JAX: WOW.
YOU KNOW, FOR ONCE YOUR TIMING
IS HALF DECENT BECAUSE ALEXIS
AND I WERE JUST DISCUSSING
THE SAME THING.
NED: WHY?
DOES SOMEBODY WANT OUT?
JAX and CHLOE: ME.

LUKE: YOU KNOW, DESPITE
OUR DIFFERENCES, I ADMIRE
YOU TREMENDOUSLY, FAISON.
FAISON: I BET YOU DO.
LUKE: I DO.
YOU PLAY THE GAME BRILLIANTLY.
YOU'RE SHARP, LETHAL.
YOU HAVE A REAL FLAIR
FOR THE UNEXPECTED.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE FUN'S KIND
OF OUT OF IT NOW BECAU WE'VE
HIT THIS STALEMATE.
SO I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE
YOUR ZIRCONIUM AND MOVE ON.
FAISON: YOU MIGHT REGRET
IF I DISAPPEAR ALL OF A SUDDEN.
YOU MIGHT REALIZE TOO LATE THAT
I HAD MORE TO OFFER.
BUT I AGREE THIS STANDOFF IS
BECOMING RATHER TIRESOME.
SO LET ME RESET THE STAKES HERE.
EITHER YOU DELIVER THE DIAMONDS
OR YOU LOSE SOMETHING OR SOMEONE
YOU HOLD EQUALLY DEAR.
LUKE: NOW YOU'RE NOT PLAYING
SO BRILLIANTLY.
YOU SEE, I TAKE THREATS
SERIOUSLY.
IF YOU HARM ANYONE CLOSE TO ME,
I WILL KILL YOU.
FAISON: I THOUGHT
YOU UNDERSTOOD ME A LITTLE
BETTER THAN THAT.
LUKE: UNFORTUNATELY, I DON'T
THINK I WILL EVER
UNDERSTAND YOU.
FAISON: I AM NOT BY NATURE
A VIOLENT MAN.
AS YOU WILL FIND OUT,
I MUCH PREFER FINESSE
AND A MUCH BETTER BRANDY.
LUKE: COME ON, FELICIA,
BE THERE.
COME ON.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
LUKE: GO AWAY!
MAC: LUKE, IT'S MAC.
LUKE: Go away faster.
YEAH, COME IN.
MAC: I NEED A COUPLE
OF MINUTES.
LUKE: WHAT'S UP?
MAC: I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
YOUR CONNECTION TO FAISON.

NIKOLAS: THE LAST PERSON
I SAW WAS MY SISTER.
I KISSED HER, AND I WENT
TO MY ROOM TO CHANGE.
DARA: ALONE?
NIKOLAS: YES.
DARA: SO THERE'S NO ONE
TO SUBSTANTIATE YOUR WHEREABOUTS
AT THE TIME OF MS. BELL'S FALL
FROM THE PARAPET.
NIKOLAS: NO.
TAGGERT: COULD I HAVE A WORD
WITH YOU ALONE?
DARA: IN A MINUTE.
EXCUSE ME.
THIS BETTER BE IMPORTANT.
I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF
AN INTERROGATION.
TAGGERT: ACTUALLY,
THAT WAS ME.
DARA: WHAT?
TAGGERT: I WAS QUESTIONING
MR. CASSADINE, AND YOU TOOK
OVER.
DARA: THIS IS THE SECOND TIME
THIS WOMAN HAS FALLEN HERE,
TAGGERT.
ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME THAT
THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT?
TAGGERT: IF THERE WAS
A CRIME, WE WILL FIND IT.
BUT I DO NOT THINK -- I DO NOT
THINK DOUBLE-TEAMING YOUNG
MR. CASSADINE IS GOING TO HELP.
DARA: YOU THINK YOU CAN DO
BETTER WITH HIM ALONE?
TAGGERT: DIFFERENT.
NOT BETTER.
DARA: HE'S ALL YOURS.
TAGGERT: I SAW IT HAPPEN LAST
TIME.
I DON'T BLAME YOU.
DARA: I WAS NEARLY FIRED
AND HUMILIATED IN FRONT
OF THE WHOLE CITY.
I WILL NOT LET THESE PEOPLE DO
THAT TO ME AGAIN.
TAGGERT: I AM ON YOUR SIDE.
BUT I DON'T THINK A LITTLE
DISTANCE WILL HURT.
NOW, LET ME DO MY JOB,
THEN YOU CAN TAKE OVER.
BY THE BOOK, RIGHT?
DARA: THANK YOU.
TAGGERT: I'M GOING TO NEED
TO KNOW EVERYBODY THAT WAS
INVOLVED WITH THE WEDDING,
EVEN PEOPLE THAT WEREN'T HERE.
THAT INCLUDES THE FLORIST,
THE MINISTER, THE CATERER,
AND ALL OF THE GUESTS.
NIKOLAS: I'LL HAVE SOMEONE
GIVE YOU A LIST.
TAGGERT: I'D APPRECIATE THAT.
IS YOUR MOTHER HERE?
NIKOLAS: OF COURSE.
TAGGERT: INSIDE?
NIKOLAS: WHY?
TAGGERT: WELL, IT'S ALWAYS
BEST TO QUESTION A PERSON
AS CLOSE TO THE INCIDENT
AS POSSIBLE.
ELIZABETH: I KNOW WHERE
YOU'RE GOING, LIEUTENANT,
BUT YOU'RE WRONG.
TAGGERT: IT'S MY JOB
TO FOLLOW UP ALL LEADS,
ELIZABETH.
ELIZABETH: WELL, LAURA'S NOT
A LEAD.
I KNOW YOU HEARD HER TELL ME HOW
MUCH SHE HATED KATHERINE,
BUT THERE IS NO WAY SHE COULD
EVER PUSH HER OFF THAT PARAPET.
TAGGERT: WHAT SHE SAID IS
THAT KATHERINE BELL HAD TO BE
STOPPED, NO MATTER WHAT.

LAURA: IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT ME,
LIEUTENANT, I'D BE HAPPY
TO ANSWER THEM MYSELF.
STEFAN: AS WILL I AND ANY
MEMBER OF MY STAFF.
A TRAGIC ACCIDENT HAS OCCURRED
HERE TONIGHT.
WE'RE ALL EAGER TO DISCOVER HOW
IT HAPPENED.
TAGGERT: WELL, ACCIDENTS DO
HAPPEN.
OF COURSE, AROUND HERE,
THEY HAPPEN A LOT.
ESPECIALLY TO MISS BELL.
WHICH IS WHY WE'RE GOING
TO CONSIDER THIS PLACE A CRIME
SCENE UNTIL WE INVESTIGATE WHAT
HAPPENED.
STEFAN: I ENCOURAGE YOU TO BE
AS THOROUGH AS POSSIBLE.
DARA: DO ANY OF YOU KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED TO MS. BELL AND WHY
SHE WAS ON THE PARAPET
IN THE FIRST PLACE?
I MEAN, CONSIDERING HER HISTORY,
IT SEEMS LIKE THE LAST PLACE
SHE WOULD EVER WANT TO BE.
STEFAN: GIVEN THE POTENTIAL
FOR MISUNDERSTANDING, I WOULD
PREFER HAVING OUR ATTORNEY
PRESENT BEFORE ANY FURTHER
QUESTIONING.
I'M SURE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND.
TAGGERT: OF COURSE.
IT'S YOUR PRIVILEGE.
BEING THAT, I'LL HAVE TO ASK
YOU ALL TO COME DOWN
TO THE STATION AND WAIT
FOR YOUR ATTORNEY THERE.
STEFAN: CAN'T IT WAIT UNTIL
MORNING?
TAGGERT: POLICE
PROCEDURE, SIR.
I DON'T MAKE IT.
I JUST FOLLOW IT.
STEFAN: MIGHT I REMIND YOU,
DETECTIVE, IT WAS POLICE
PROCEDURE THAT CAUSED ME TO BE
CHARGED WITH MISS BELL'S MURDER
WHEN SHE WASN'T EVEN DEAD?
DARA: WE ALL KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED LAST TIME.
THIS IS A NEW CASE AND WILL BE
TREATED AS SUCH.
STEFAN: I'M MERELY SUGGESTING
THAT YOU PROCEED WITH CAUTION.
TAGGERT: WE ALWAYS DO.
I'LL SEE YOU ALL AT THE POLICE
STATION IN THE MORNING.
DARA: LIEUTENANT.
TAGGERT: PART OF
OUR INVESTIGATION WILL BE
AN AUTOPSY ON MISS BELL.
WHO SHOULD WE NOTIFY
WITH THE RESULTS?
NIKOLAS: ME.
TAGGERT: CAN I GET
TO THE PARAPET THROUGH HERE?
STEFAN: I'LL SHOW
YOU THE WAY.
DARA: I'M SURE YOU COULD ALL
USE SOME TIME TO YOURSELVES.
I'M SORRY.
LAURA: COULD WE HAVE A MOMENT
ALONE, PLEASE?
ELIZABETH: SURE.
NIKOLAS: I KNOW YOU
HATED HER.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PRETEND
OTHERWISE.
LAURA: BUT THAT DOESN'T
LESSEN YOUR PAIN.
NIKOLAS: KATHERINE WASN'T
THE ONLY PERSON WHO LOST
HER LIFE TONIGHT.
NO ONE SEEMS TO BE MENTIONING,
BUT MY CHILD ALSO DIED FROM THAT
FALL, TOO.
LAURA: THERE WAS NO CHILD.
NIKOLAS: AH, DON'T DO THIS.
LAURA: NO.
NO, LISTEN TO ME.
I CAN'T LET YOU MOURN WHAT
DIDN'T EXIST.
KATHERINE WAS NOT PREGNANT.
SHE WAS LYING THE WHOLE TIME.

NED: DO YOU PEOPLE REALIZE
YOU'RE AS BAD AS THE
QUARTERMAINES?
I LEAVE FOR FIVE MINUTES,
AND ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE.
JAX: OR MAYBE WE WERE ABLE
TO GET SOME PERSPECTIVE
WITHOUT YOU RUNNING INTERFERENCE
ALL THE TIME.
NED: LOOK, I UNDERSTAND IT'S
NO PICNIC WATCHING THE WOMAN
YOU CARE ABOUT BEING MARRIED
TO ANOTHER MAN.
BUT I CAN MANAGE IT.
WHY CAN'T YOU?
JAX: WELL, I SEEM TO LACK
YOUR NATURAL PREDISPOSITION
TOWARD BIGAMY.
CHLOE: JAX ISN'T ALONE
IN THIS.
I AM READY TO QUIT, TOO.
NED: BECAUSE HE
PERSUADED YOU.
JAX: NO.
THE FACT REMAINS THAT THIS
EXPERIMENT DIDN'T WORK.
NOW, CHLOE AND I MIGHT FEEL MORE
STRONGLY ABOUT IT THAN THE TWO
OF YOU, BUT WE'RE ALL AWARE
OF IT.
ALEXIS: SWEETIE, IF YOU DON'T
MIND, I'D LIKE TO SPEAK
FOR MYSELF.
JAX: I WAS AFRAID OF THAT.
ALEXIS: YOU SEE,
NED AND I ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE
BEEN INCONVENIENCED BY THIS
WHOLE SITUATION, SO I THINK THAT
WE SHOULD BE THE ONES TO DECIDE
WHEN IT ENDS, RIGHT?
JAX: YEAH, BUT WE'RE ALL
DOING THIS FOR CHLOE,
AND IF SHE'S NOT INTERESTED
ANYMORE, THEN WHY CONTINUE?
NED: BECAUSE IF CHLOE LOSES
HER COMPANY TO AUNT GERTRUDE
AND THE RIGHT TO USE HER OWN
NAME IN ALL FUTURE COMPANIES,
SHE WILL REGRET IT FOR THE REST
OF HER LIFE.
CHLOE: NO OFFENSE,
NED, BUT IT'S NOT YOUR JOB
TO WATCH OUT FOR ME.
ALEXIS: YES, IT IS.
HE REALLY CAN'T HELP IT.
IT'S A GATEKEEPER THING.
WE HOVER OVER PEOPLE THAT
WE CARE ABOUT BECAUSE WE JUST
ASSUME THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT
THEY'RE DOING.
CHLOE: WHAT?
NED: IT'S MEANT WITH THE BEST
INTENTIONS.
JAX: YOU KNOW, I NEVER ASKED
YOU TO WATCH OVER ME OR TELL ME
WHAT TO DO.
THAT MIGHT WORK WITH
THE QUARTERMAINEOR
THE CASSADINES, BUT NOT WITH ME.
NED: ALL RIGHT, LET ME ASK
YOU THIS --
CAN EITHER ONE OF YOU DENY THAT
ALEXIS AND I SERVE A VALUABLE
PURPOSE IN YOUR LIVES?
JAX: NO.
CHLOE: NO.
ALEXIS: AND WILL YOU ADMIT
THAT THIS SPECIAL PURPOSE WILL
INCREASE IN IMPORTANCE
IN THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE?
JAX: YES.
CHLOE: DEFINITELY.
NED: WOULD YOU BOTH AGREE
THAT ALEXIS AND I ARE SANE,
RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS,
BOTH CAPABLE OF KNOWING WHAT'S
BEST FOR US?
JAX: OF COURSE.
ALEXIS: AND WOULDN'T YOU DO
THE SAME THING IF THE SITUATION
WERE REVERSED?
JAX: OK, OK, YOU WIN.
WE STAY MARRIED.
ALL RIGHT?
CHLOE: I DON'T SEE HOW
WE HAVE ANY CHOICE.
NED: YOU MADE A WISE
DECISION.
NOW, ON TO MORE PLEASANT
SUBJECTS.
I DON'T THINK YOU'VE EVER SHOWN
ME YOUR ROOM HERE.
ALEXIS: REALLY?
WELL, THAT'S RUDE.
NED: WHICH WAY?
ALEXIS: THIS WAY.
[ALEXIS SQUEALS]
JAX: SO, WHAT MADE YOU WANT
TO QUIT?
CHLOE: YOU TELL ME.

MAC: I'VE BEEN KEEPING TABS
ON FAISON, TRYING TO FIND OUT
WHAT HE'S UP TO.
IMAGINE MY SURPRISE WHEN
HE WOUND UP HERE.
LUKE: IMAGINE MINE.
MAC: WHAT DID HE WANT?
LUKE: HE SEEMS TO BE STAKING
OUT TERRITORY IN PORT CHARLES,
AND FOR SOME REASON HE WANTED
TO NOTIFY ME.
MAC: WHY WOULD HE THINK THAT?
LUKE: WELL, MAYBE HE'S GOT
A DEATH WISH.
I DON'T KNOW.
BUT I'LL TELL YOU THIS -- I'D
A LOT RATHER HE TALKS TO MY FACE
THAN STABS ME IN THE BACK.
MAC: TYPICAL SPENCER.
ANSWERS THE QUESTION
WITHOUT TELLING ME ANYTHING.
LUKE: IT'S A GIFT.
MAC: LUKE, IF YOU HAVE
ANYTHING ON FAISON, YOU BRING IT
TO ME, ALL RIGHT?
I WILL MAKE DAMN SURE THAT IT
STICKS.
DO YOU KNOW THAT HE'S BEEN
STALKING FELICIA?
LUKE: WELL, I KNOW THAT
HE MUST BE PLAYING YOU LIKE
A VIOLIN AND YOU'VE GOT TO STOP
SINGING HIS SONG.
MAC: YOU KNOW HOW SICK
AND TIRED I AM OF PEOPLE TELLING
ME THAT, LUKE?
LUKE: WELL, IT DOESN'T MAKE
IT ANY LESS TRUE, MAC.
MAC: EVERYONE TELLS ME TO NOT
LET FAISON GET UNDER MY SKIN,
THAT HE IS THE MASTER GAME
PLAYER.
"DON'T FALL FOR HIS TRICKS."
I'VE GOT A FEW TRICKS OF MY OWN,
AND FAISON WOULD BE SMART
TO TAKE COVER IF HE SEES ME.
I AM GOING TO DESTROY HIM, LE.
LUKE: NOW, ARE YOU GOING
TO DO THAT WITHIN THE LIMITS
OF THE LAW OR BY ANY MEANS
NECESSARY?

CHLOE: I WANTED TO BE ABLE
TO HELP YOU WITH JERRY.
NOT THAT I SEEM TO DO ANYTHING
BUT DISTRACT YOU, BUT AT LEAST
I COULD DO THAT OPENLY AND NOT
HAVE TO HIDE FROM GERTRUDE
AND EDWARD.
JAX: I ASKED ALEXIS
TO DIVORCE ME, TOO, TO SPARE
HER BEING ASSOCIATED
WITH A MONEY-LAUNDERING SCAM.
BUT SHE INSISTED ON STICKING
WITH ME.
CHLOE: THEY'RE REALLY KIND
OF WONDERFUL, AREN'T THEY?
JAX: DON'T TELL NED THIS,
BUT, YES.
SO THE BEST WAY YOU CAN HELP ME
NOW IS BY STAYING MARRIED
TO NED.

MAC: FAISON DOESN'T RESPECT
THE LAW.
WHY SHOULD IT PROTECT HIM?
LUKE: HEY, I COULDN'T AGREE
WITH YOU MORE, MAC.
BUT YOU GOT TO BE CAUTIOUS
AND METHODICAL WITH THIS GUY
BECAUSE HE'S GOING TO PUSH
YOU TO BE RECKLESS.
MAC: WELL, ONE WAY
OR ANOTHER, LUKE, I'M GOING
TO GET FAISON.
I ASSUME I CAN COUNT
ON YOUR COOPERATION.
LUKE: I THOUGHT YOU'D
NEVER ASK.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
MAC: SCORPIO.
YOU KNOW WHO IT WAS?
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
WITNESSES?
ALL RIGHT.
LOOK, I WANT ALL THE DETAILS.
MEET ME IN MY OFFICE
IN 20 MINUTES.
LUKE: TROUBLE?
MAC: KATHERINE BELL IS DEAD.
SHE FELL FROM THE PARAPET
AT WYNDEMERE.
LUKE: AGAIN?

LAURA: HELENA GAVE KATHERINE
AN EXPERIMENTAL DRUG AFTER
THE ACCIDENT THAT SAVED HER LIFE
BUT LEFT HER UNABLE TO BEAR
CHILDREN.
NO, I'M NOT MAKING THIS UP.
I HAVE PROOF.
NIKOLAS: WHERE DID
YOU GET IT?
LAURA: HELENA LEFT IT FOR ME
BEFORE SHE WAS INCAPACITATED.
HER ASSISTANT BROUGHT IT TO ME
JUST THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY.
NIKOLAS: YOU CALL THAT PROOF?
ANYTHING THAT COMES FROM HELENA
IS A LIE.
LAURA: NIKOLAS, I'M WELL
AWARE OF HER CAPACITY
FOR DECEPTION, BUT MEDICAL
FACTS --
NIKOLAS: HELENA SET YOU UP,
LAURA.
SHE KNEW YOU'D DO ANYTHING
TO KEEP ME FROM BEING
WITH KATHERINE -- EVEN CARRY
HER LIES.
LAURA: I KNOW THAT YOU'RE
IN PAIN, NIKOLAS, BUT PLEASE
DON'T JUST DISMISS THIS
BECAUSE IT ISN'T WHAT YOU WANT
TO HEAR.
NIKOLAS: KATHERINE WAS
PREGNANT --
LAURA: KATHERINE --
NIKOLAS: AND THE CHILD WAS
MINE.
LAURA: NO.
KATHERINE WAS A LONELY WOMAN WHO
LURED YOU INTO A RELATIONSHIP
WITH HER AND THEN DID EVERYTHING
SHE COULD TO HOLD ONTO YOU,
NIKOLAS.
AND WHEN YOU FINALLY LEFT HER,
SHE HAD NO OTHER WAY TO HOLD
ONTO YOU BUT TO FAKE A PREGNANCY
BECAUSE SHE KNEW THAT YOU WOULD
NEVER, EVER ABANDON YOUR CHILD.
SHE WAS MANIPULATING YOU.
SHE COULDN'T HAVE CHILDREN.
SHE COULDN'T, SO SHE
INVENTED ONE.
NIKOLAS: DID YOU EVER ACCUSE
KATHERINE OF THIS DIRECTLY?
LAURA: YES. TONIGHT.
NIKOLAS: HERE? HERE?
LAURA: YES, ON THE PARAPET.
AND SHE --
SHE DENIED IT, OF COURSE.
NIKOLAS: SHE MUST HAVE BEEN
FURIOUS.
LAURA: YES, SHE WAS ANGRY.
SHE WAS ANGRY TO HAVE BEEN FOUND
OUT, AND SHE SAID SOME VICIOUS
THINGS TO ME.
NIKOLAS: AND YOU FOUGHT BACK.
LAURA: WITH WORDS.
NIKOLAS: ONLY WORDS?
LAURA: ONLY WORDS.
NIKOLAS: YOU HATED HER.
ARE YOU SURE YOU DIDN'T PUSH
HER OFF THE PARAPET?
STEFAN: STOP IT, NIKOLAS.
THAT'S ENOUGH.

JAX: DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH
I LOVE TO WIN?
CHLOE: IT WAS THE MOST
COMPETITIVE GAME OF HOPSCOTCH
I'VE EVER PLAYED.
JAX: TAKING ON THE GOVERNMENT
TENDS TO BE A LOSING
PROPOSITION, ESPECIALLY WHEN
THE PERSON YOU'RE TRYING TO SAVE
HAPPENS TO BE GUILTY.
SO THE ONLY VICTORY
ON THE HORIZON HAPPENS TO BE
YOUR CERTAIN TRIUMPH OVER
AUNT GERTRUDE.
CHLOE: I ASSURE YOU, IT'S FAR
FROM CERTAIN.
JAX: OH, COME ON.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS STAY
MARRIED TO NED FOR A FULL YEAR,
AND YOU'LL WIN.
I KNOW -- IT'S PAINFUL
BUT DOABLE.
AND THE PAYOFF IS WORTH IT.
CHLOE: WHAT ABOUT YOU?
JAX: WELL, THAT'S JUST IT.
YOU'LL BE WINNING FOR ME.
R ALL OF US.
BESIDES, BY THE TIME THIS IS
OVER, I MAY NEED A JOB.
CHLOE: VICE PRESIDENT
IN CHARGE OF SILK NEGOTIATIONS?
JAX: NO, I WAS THINKING
MORE ALONG THE LINES OF
PRIVATE PILOT/SHIP'S
CAPTAIN/STABLE HAND --
CHLOE: SLASH GERMAN
INTERPRETER?
JAX: YEAH, EXACTLY.
CHLOE: YOU'RE HIRED.
JAX: BUT I HAVEN'T EVEN
APPLIED FOR THE JOB YET.
CHLOE: YOU'RE PREAPPROVED.
JAX: REALLY?
CHLOE: YEAH, IT'S YOURS
WHENEVER YOU WANT IT.
AND IN THE MEANTIME,
AM I ALLOWED TO DISTRACT YOU?
JAX: YEAH, WHENEVER YOU FEEL
LIKE IT.
CHLOE: THEN I GOT A PRETTY
GOOD DEAL FOR MYSELF.
JAX: YEAH, YOU'RE A WINNER
ALL THE WAY.

MAC: I'VE GOT TO GO FIND OUT
MORE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED
TO KATHERINE.
LUKE: YEAH.
MAC: LUKE, DID YOU HAVE
ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS?
LUKE: NO.
MAC: APPARENTLY YOUR WIFE
AND DAUGHTER WERE THERE WHEN IT
HAPPENED.
LUKE: WHAT ARE YOU
SAYING, MAC?
SOMEBODY SAW LULU SHOVE HER OFF?
MAC: NO.
THERE WERE NO WITNESSES.
I JUST THOUGHT YOU'D WANT
TO KNOW THAT THEY WERE THERE.
LUKE: WELL, IT'S NO SURPRISE
TO ME TH MY WIFE'S HANGING OUT
AT WYNDEMERE.
MAC: YOU KNOW, A LOT
OF PEOPLE DIDN'T LIKE KATHERINE.
SOME WITH GOOD REASON.
BUT SHE ALWAYS SEEMED TO SHOW ME
HER BEST SIDE.
SHE WAS BRIGHT, CARING,
WARM, TENACIOUS.
LUKE: YEAH, SHE WAS THAT.
MAC: THE FALL KILLED
HER INSTANTLY.
I MEAN, THIS TIME THERE WON'T BE
ANY MIRACULOUS RECOVERY.
LUKE: I'M SORRY, MAC.
IT'S ALWAYS TOUGH TO LOSE
A FRIEND.

STEFAN: NIKOLAS, I UNDERSTAND
YOU'RE UPSET, BUT LASHING OUT
AT YOUR MOTHER WILL SOLVE
NOTHING.
LAURA: IT'S ALL RIGHT.
IT WAS A REASONABLE QUESTION,
AND I WANT TO ANSWER IT.
NO, I DID NOT PUSH KATHERINE
OVER THE PARAPET.
THE LAST TIME I SAW HER, SHE WAS
ALIVE.
NIKOLAS: THEY WERE ALIVE.
KATHERINE AND MY CHILD.
LAURA: NIKOLAS, PLEASE.
MAYBE IF YOU READ THE REPORT --
NIKOLAS: KATHERINE WAS GOING
TO BE A MOTHER.
SHE'D CHANGED.
SHE WAS HAPPY.
THE BABY WAS ALL THAT MATTERED
TO HER.
EVERY TIME SHE TOUCHED
HER STOMACH, SHE SMILED KNOWING
THIS CHILD WAS GROWING
INSIDE HER.
A PERSON COULDN'T FAKE THAT.
NO ONE WOULD BE THAT CRUEL.
BELIEVE HELENA'S LIES
IF YOU WANT.
I KNOW THE TRUTH.
ELIZABETH: LT. TAGGERT SAID
I COULD GO.
UNLESS YOU NEED ME, I'M GOING
TO TAKE THE NEXT LAUNCH OUT.
NIKOLAS: I'LL GO WITH YOU.
ELIZABETH: I'M SO SORRY,
NIKOLAS.
LAURA: I SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID
ANYTHING.
I --
IT WAS JUST TOO MUCH FOR HIM
TO TAKE IN.
STEFAN: LISTEN.
YOU COULD NOT LET HIM MOURN
A LIFE THAT DOESN'T EXIST.
LAURA: WHAT IF HE'S RIGHT?
WHAT IF HE'S RIGHT?
WHAT IF HELENA WAS JUST TELLING
ME WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR?
OH, MY GOD.
IF IT TURNS OUT THAT SHE WAS
PREGNANT, HE'S GOING TO HATE ME
FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
AND THEN YOUR MOTHER WILL HAVE
EVERYTHING SHE EVER WANTED.
TAGGERT: THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH THE RAILING?
MAN: IT'S SOLID, LIEUTENANT.
THERE'S NO WAY SHE WENT OVER
BY ACCIDENT.
TAGGERT: THEN SHE WAS PUSHED.
MAN: IT COULD HAVE BEEN
SUICIDE.
TAGGERT: NO.
SHE FOUGHT HER WAY BACK
FROM PARALYSIS IN A FALL THAT
SHOULD HAVE KILLED HER
A YEAR AGO.
AFTER THAT, NO WAY SHE'D TAKE
HERSELF OUT.
MAN: ANY IDEA WHO MIGHT HAVE
PUSHED HER?
TAGGERT: A FEW.
LET'S TAKE THIS DOWNSTAIRS.
THIS --
THIS ROOM GIVES ME THE CREEPS.
[NOISE]
FAISON: BUSY NIGHT,
I UNDERSTAND.
I HOPE THE EXCITEMENT DIDN'T
UPSET YOU TOO MUCH.
BUT THEN AGAIN, WHY SHOULD IT?
YOU COULDN'T HAVE PLANNED THIS
MUCH BETTER YOURSELF.

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

FELICIA: YOU WERE IN LUKE'S
OFFICE.

ALEXIS: WHY DID YOU CALL ME?
LUKE: I'VE MISSED YOU.
ALEXIS: WHAT DO YOU WANT?

MONICA: THE POLICE ARE
LOOKING FOR HIM.
HIS RUNNING AWAY IS ONLY CAUSING
HIM MORE TROUBLE.

MAN: NICE NECKLACE.
CARLY: HEY! GIVE IT BACK!
