STEFAN: NIKOLAS.
I GOT YOUR MESSAGE.
YOU SOUNDED WORRIED.
NIKOLAS: I'M FINE.
I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW
THAT I WON'T BE ATTENDING
HELENA'S TRIAL TODAY.
I'VE DECIDED NOT TO SUBJECT
MYSELF TO HEARING ALL
THE DETAILS OF HOW SHE MURDERED
KATHERINE.
STEFAN: I THINK THAT'S WISE.
YOU WILL, HOWEVER, BE ASKED
TO TESTIFY AT SOME POINT.
NIKOLAS: I'M PREPARED
FOR THAT.
STEFAN: WOULD YOU LIKE ME
TO TELL D.A. JENSEN NOT
TO EXPECT YOU TODAY, THEN?
NIKOLAS: NO, I'LL DO IT.
BUT THANKS.
I'D BETTER GO.
THERE'S SOMEONE THAT I HAVE
TO -- I HAVE TO SEE.
STEFAN: I APPRECIATE
YOU KEEPING ME INFORMED
OF YOUR PLANS.
IF THERE'S ANYTHING --
NIKOLAS: THERE ISN'T.
I HOPE THE TRIAL ISN'T TOO
UNPLEASANT FOR YOU.
HELENA: NIKOLAS HAS GROWN
TO BE SUCH A HANDSOME YOUNG MAN.
PRACTICALLY THE IMAGE
OF HIS FATHER.
STEFAN: I SEE YOU'RE
ATTENDING YOUR TRIAL DRESSED
TO KILL.
HOW APPROPRIATE.
HELENA: I'M DRESSED
AS THE LEADER AROUND WHOM ALL
CASSADINES WILL RALLY --
BEGINNING WITH YOU.
SUPPORT ME NOW OR SUFFER
THE CONSEQUENCES.
MY SURPRISES ARE JUST BEGINNING.

FAISON: OH.
SO, WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?
UNHAPPY?
FELICIA: I DON'T DO WELL
WITHOUT AIR.
FAISON: AIR?
THERE'S PLENTY OF AIR HERE.
BUT SHOULD I HAVE OTHER PLANS,
LIKE SUCKING OUT ALL THE OXYGEN,
I'M SURE YOU WILL BE AWARE OF IT
A FEW SECONDS BEFORE YOU DIED.
FELICIA: EVERY CLOUD HAS
A SILVER LINING.
IF I DIE, THEN YOU DIE.
FAISON: OF COURSE
I WOULDN'T DIE.
ARE YOU AFRAID?
YOU'RE AFRAID.
FELICIA: PEOPLE ARE LOOKING
FOR ME.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET AWAY
WITH THIS.
FAISON: YOU SEE,
EVERYTHING WOULD HAVE BEEN
SO MUCH EASIER HAD YOU REALIZED
A LONG TIME AGO THAT I'M
THE ONLY MAN WHO CAN MAKE
YOU HAPPY.
FELICIA: I HAVE A HUSBAND
FOR THAT.
FAISON: YOU DON'T HAVE
A HUSBAND.
YOUR MARRIAGE IS FALLING APART
RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES.
BUT NO MATTER.
IT'S ONLY A QUESTION OF TIME
NOW, AND THE DOOR WILL OPEN
AND YOUR HERO WILL ARRIVE.
FELICIA: HERO?
FAISON: YEAH, YOUR HERO.
BUT WHO WILL IT BE?
WHO DO YOU THINK IT WILL BE?
LOOK AT ME WHEN I TALK TO YOU!
WHO DO YOU THINK IT WILL BE,
HUH?
YOUR HUSBAND OR
LUKE?

ROY: LET ME GET
THIS STRAIGHT.
YOUR BASIC PLAN IS TO FOLLOW
FAISON'S INSTRUCTIONS,
WALK INTO A TRAP, AND,
WHAT, DIE SHOOTING?
LUKE: YOU KNOW, I'VE WALKED
INTO TRAPS BEFORE.
ONCE I EVEN SET OFF A WOLF TRAP.
IT SNAPPED UP THERE,
GRABBED MY BUTT, LEFT TEETH
MARKS, AND I'M STILL HERE.
ROY: YOU FIGURE FAISON
DOESN'T WANT YOU DEAD.
LUKE: I FIGURE HE'S THE ONLY
ROAD TO FELICIA, SO I'M GOING
TO LET HIM LEAD ME FROM PHONE
BOOTH TO PHONE BOOTH UNTIL HE'S
SURE THAT I'M ALONE.
AND THEN HE'LL BE READY TO MAKE
HIS MOVE.
ROY: YOU KNOW, LUKE,
AS DESIGNATED BACKUP,
I'M STARTING TO FEEL A LITTLE
LEFT OUT.
LUKE: LOOK, ROY, IT ISN'T
THAT I DON'T THINK I COULD
USE YOU.
IT'S THAT HIS INSTRUCTIONS WERE
VERY SIMPLE -- COME ALONE
OR HE KILLS HER.

ELIZABETH: OH, BYE, BOBBIE.
I'M LEAVING.
BOBBIE: ARE YOU COMING
IN TOMORROW?
ELIZABETH: CAN I CALL
YOU LATER?
BOBBIE: SURE.
BE CAREFUL.
SONNY: ELIZABETH?
ELIZABETH: SONNY, HI.
YOU GOING INSIDE?
SONNY: NO.
I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT JASON.
ELIZABETH: WHAT ABOUT HIM?
SONNY: IS HE ALL RIGHT?
ELIZABETH: I SURE HOPE SO.
SONNY: YOU DON'T HAVE
TO PRETEND.
I KNOW YOU'RE TAKING CARE
OF HIM.
BOBBIE: WELL, HI.
MY GOODNESS.
WHAT IS ALL THAT
LAURA: THANKS.
JUST SOME STUFF THAT I THOUGHT
MAYBE LUCAS COULD USE.
IT'S TEENAGE STUFF MOSTLY.
YOU KNOW, BUT HE'LL GROW
INTO THAT FAST ENOUGH.
BOBBIE: OH, LAURA.
LUCAS WOULD BE THRILLED TO HAVE
LUCKY'S THINGS, IF YOU'RE SURE.
LAURA: I AM.
I THINK I'M FINALLY STARTING
TO GET ORGANIZED, YOU KNOW.
AND I -- I BELIEVE THAT LUCKY
WOULD WANT ME TO MOVE ON.
AND THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING
TO DO.
BOBBIE: GOOD FOR YOU.
LAURA: YEAH.
THE NEXT STEP IS GOING TO BE
A LITTLE BIT HARDER, I THINK.
I DECIDED TO RENT OUT HIS ROOM.
SONNY: I'M NOT GOING
TO PRESSURE YOU INTO TELLING ME
WHERE HE IS.
BUT WHATEVER HE NEEDS,
I'LL GET IT.
ELIZABETH: ACCORDING
TO JASON, HE NEEDS TO BE
LEFT ALONE.

ELIZABETH: JASON'S HEALING.
IT'S SLOW, BUT HE'S
MAKING PROGRESS.
SONNY: WHAT ABOUT MEDICINE?
ELIZABETH: HE HAS
THE ANTIBIOTICS, WHICH HE IS
TAKING.
SONNY: IS ANYBODY WITH HIM?
ELIZABETH: I TRY TO SEE HIM
AS OFTEN AS I CAN, BUT MOSTLY
HE'S ALONE.
SONNY: I GOT A DOCTOR
I CAN TRUST --
ELIZABETH: HE WON'T ALLOW IT.
JASON REOPENED HIS WOUND TWO
DAYS AGO, AND I WANTED TO GET
HELP, BUT HE WOULDN'T LET ME.
HE INSISTED THAT ALL HE NEEDED
WAS A NEW BANDAGE.
TURNS OUT HE WAS RIGHT
BECAUSE IT DIDN'T BLEED MUCH
FOR TOO LONG.
BUT JASON'S IN LOT OF PAIN.
SONNY: AND OF COURSE HE WON'T
TAKE PAINKILLERS.
ELIZABETH: IT'S NOT JUST
PHYSICAL.
SONNY: WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
ELIZABETH: I DON'T KNOW.
IT JUST SEEMS LIKE HE'S SAD.
LIKE SOMETHING HAPPENED,
SOMETHING TERRIBLE.
AND I DON'T THINK IT HAS
ANYTHING TO DO WITH
THE SHOOTING.
SONNY: YEAH, SOMETHING DID.
ELIZABETH: WHAT?

LAURA: OK, THEN.
LET ME KNOW IF THERE'S ANY
OF THIS THAT YOU DON'T WANT
BECAUSE I MIGHT BE ABLE TO USE
IT FOR SOME OF MY OUTREACH KIDS.
BOBBIE: OK.
I'LL GET ON IT RIGHT AWAY.
LAURA: GREAT.
TAGGERT: I'M SORRY
TO INTERRUPT YOU.
I JUST GOT A QUICK QUESTION.
IS IT TRUE YOU GOT A TWO-BEDROOM
APARTMENT AVAILABLE
IN YOUR BROWNSTONE?
LAURA: I'LL SEE YOU.
GOT TO GO.
BOBBIE: BYE, LAURA.
WHY?
DO YOU KNOW OF A GOOD TENANT?
TAGGERT: HOW ABOUT ME
AND JUAN SANTIAGO?
BOBBIE: YOU'RE
KIDDING, RIGHT?
DO YOU HONESTLY WANT A SPENCER
AS A LANDLORD?
TAGGERT: HE DOESN'T LIVE
THERE, DOES HE?
BOBBIE: NO.
TAGGERT: THEN I DON'T SEE
A PROBLEM WITH IT.
BOBBIE: WELL, I HAPPEN
TO HAVE A VERY GOOD FRIEND NAMED
JASON MORGAN, AND I HAVE
ACQUAINTANCES, SUCH AS SONNY
CORINTHOS.
TAGGERT: SO IT'S NOT
THE PERFECT ARRANGEMENT,
BUT THE POSITIVES OUTWEIGH
THE NEGATIVES.
BOBBIE: HOW SO?
TAGGERT: WELL, JUAN
RESPECTS YOU.
YOU'D BE A GOOD INFLUENCE
ON HIM.
AND MAYBE YOU COULD EVEN GIVE ME
SOME ADVICE HOW TO TAKE CARE
OF HIM.
BOBBIE: HAS HE BEEN
IN TROUBLE AGAIN?
TAGGERT: NO, NO, NO.
THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO AVOID.
BOBBIE: YOU KNOW, I WOULD
REALLY LIKE TO HELP.
I THINK HE'S A GOOD KID.
AND I THINK EMILY WOULD
APPRECIATE IT.
BUT, YOU KNOW, MY LIFE,
IT'S JUST -- IT'S -- IT'S
SO COMPLICATED RIGHT NOW.
TAGGERT: I PAY MY RENT
ON TIME.
I DON'T PLAY MY MUSIC LOUD.
I'M OUT ALL DAY,
I'M IN BED EARLY.
MY UNCLE WAS A PLUMBER,
AND HE TAUGHT ME EVERYTHING
I KNOW.
BOBBIE: WHY DID YOU DECIDE
TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR JUAN?
TAGGERT: I LIKED HIM,
SO I OFFERED.
I'VE SEEN A LOT OF GOOD KIDS
TAKE A WRONG TURN AND NOT MAKE
IT BACK.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
JUAN'S NOT ONE OF THEM.
BOBBIE: OK.
I'LL GIVE YOU A LEASE
FOR TWO MONTHS.
AND IF EVERYBODY'S HAPPY,
I'LL EXTEND IT FOR A YEAR.
AND IF NOT, YOU LEAVE, NO HARD
FEELINGS.
TAGGERT: WORKS FOR ME.

SONNY: I DON'T THINK IT'S
MY PLACE TO TELL YOU WHAT
HAPPENED OR WHAT IT DID
TO JASON.
YOU KNOW, IF YOU WANT TO KNOW,
YOU SHOULD ASK HIM YOURSELF.
ELIZABETH: OK.
SONNY: OK?
YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT
YOU TO WORRY ABOUT MONEY, SO --
ELIZABETH: I DON'T.
SONNY: OK.
ELIZABETH: I SHOULD GO.
I WANT TO MAKE AN APPEARANCE
AT HOME BEFORE I VISIT JASON.
I'M GLAD YOU TRACKED ME DOWN.
I KNOW IT MUST BE HARD NOT BEING
ABLE TO SEE HIM FOR YOURSELF.
SONNY: YEAH, WELL, AT LEAST,
YOU KNOW, I KNOW --
IT'S A LOT EASIER THAT YOU'RE
TAKING CARE OF HIM, YOU KNOW.
ELIZABETH: WELL, I'M HAPPY
TO DO IT.
JASON'S A VERY SPECIAL PERSON.
SONNY: YEAH, THAT HE IS.
YOU'LL LET ME KNOW IF ANYTHING
ELSE COMES UP?
IF YOU NEED --
ELIZABETH: I'LL COME TO YOU.
I'LL COME TO YOU.
SONNY: ALL RIGHT. THANKS.

STEFAN: AH.
THE SEVERITY OF YOUR SITUATION
IS SINKING IN.
YOU'RE FACING A LIFE SENTENCE.
NATURALLY, YOU WOULD LOOK
TO THE FAMILY FOR HELP.
BUT IT WON'T BE FORTHCOMING.
THE CONSENSUS AMONG CASSADINES
FROM THE CHINA SEA TO THE AEGEAN
IS THAT THE MATRIARCH
SHOULD HANG.
HELENA: YOU'RE LYING.
STEFAN: DID YOU BELIEVE
A LIFETIME OF MURDER AND MAYHEM
WOULD INSPIRE DEVOTION?
HELENA: LOCKING ME UP WILL
NOT SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS,
NEITHER YOUR CURRENT TROUBLE
WITH LAURA AND NIKOLAS NOR
THE TROUBLE YET TO COME.
YOU'D BE VERY WISE TO THINK
OF ME AS AN INSURANCE POLICY.
KEEP ME FREE AND AVAILABLE
TO YOU.
STEFAN: WHAT CAN I DO,
MOTHER?
YOU'RE FACING MURDER CHARGES.
THE WHEELS OF JUSTICE HAVE
ALREADY BEEN SET IN MOTION.
HELENA: NO, THE EVIDENCE
AGAINST ME IS CIRCUMSTANTIAL
AT BEST.
IF YOU WOULD ONLY TESTIFY
ON MY BEHALF, THEN MUCH OF IT
WOULD BE DISMISSED.
STEFAN: THAT WILL HAPPEN
IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE STREETS
ARE PAVED WITH GOLD.
LOOK FOR ME ON THE WITNESS
STAND, MOTHER.
HELENA: YOU NEVER DID HAVE
THE SENSE TO LISTEN TO ME.
ONE HINT THAT LUCKY SPENCER IS
ALIVE AND YOUR PRECIOUS LAURA
WILL BE LOST TO YOU FOREVER.

ROY: HEY.
WELL, THANKS FOR SHOWING ME
WHERE YOU KEEP THIS.
I HOPE I NEVER NEED IT
ON MY WATCH.
MAC: CAN THE COVER, DiLUCCA.
I'M NOT HERE TO CHECK
ON PERMITS.
THIS IS BETWEEN LUKE AND ME.
ROY: I'LL BE AROUND.
LUKE: OK.
WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND,
POLICE COMMISSIONER?
MAC: I KNOW YOU HAVE A LEAD
ON WHERE FAISON IS
HOLDING FELICIA.
LUKE: AND YOU KNOW THIS HOW?
MAC: HE MADE CONTACT
WITH YOU LAST NIGHT AND AGAIN
THIS MORNING.
LUKE: YOU'VE BEEN TRACING
MY PHONE CALLS.
MAC: THAT DOESN'T
MATTER, LUKE.
WHAT MATTERS IS THAT FAISON MADE
CONTACT WITH YOU.
HOWEVER YOU PLAY IT, I'M GOING
WITH YOU.

LUKE: MAC, I KNOW YOU LOVE
YOUR WIFE.
WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO GET
HER KILLED?
MAC: FAISON IS SMART,
BUT HE IS NOT GOD.
I CAN BEAT HIM.
LUKE: HE'S INSANE!
HE'S PLAYING BY HIS OWN RULES.
IT GIVES HIM AN ADVANTAGE.
AND HE WANTS YOUR WIFE DEAD
OR ALIVE, MAC.
HE'S NOT WORKING ALONE, EITHER.
THE MINUTE I MAKE A MOVE,
SOMEBODY'S GOING TO REPORT IT
TO HIM.
AND IF ANYBODY CATCHES SIGHT
OF YOU --
MAC: JUST SAVE YOUR BREATH.
SAVE YOUR BREATH.
I KNOW THE RISKS.
I'M GOING WITH YOU,
AND FELICIA'S COMING HOME.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
LUKE: WHAT?
[FAISON WHISTLES]
LUKE: WHAT?
FAISON: YEAH.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO TALK
TO YOUR PARTNER?
LUKE: YEAH, I'D LIKE THAT
VERY MUCH.
FAISON: MM-HMM.
UNFORTUNATELY, SHE CAN'T.
SHE SEEMS TO BE BUSY
WITH SOMETHING ELSE RIGHT NOW.
LUKE: WHAT'S THE MATTER?
SHE ISN'T AS SWIFT OFF HER FEET
AS YOU HAD HOPED?
ARE YOU GOING TO GIVE ME
SOMETHING I CAN USE HERE?
FAISON: MM-HMM.
BE AT THE CORNER OF TALMADGE
AND FOURTH IN AN HOUR.
LUKE: WHAT, SO I CAN GET
MUGGED?
MAC: WHAT DID HE SAY?
WHAT DID HE SAY?
DID HE TELL YOU WHERE HE'S
HOLDING FELICIA?
LUKE: HE WANTS ME DOWNTOWN
IN AN HOUR.
MAC: YOU MIGHT AS WELL TELL
ME WHERE, LUKE.
I CAN GET IT OFF THE PHONE TAP.
LUKE: ALL RIGHT.
THE CORNER OF FOURTH
AND TALMADGE.

MIKE: SONNY. SONNY.
WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
GLAD I CAUGHT YOU.
SONNY: I GOT A BIG DAY AHEAD
OF ME, MIKE.
WHAT DO YOU NEED?
MIKE: LOOK, I'M WORRIED
ABOUT JASON.
I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM FOR DAYS.
HE DOESN'T ANSWER MY CALLS.
SONNY: WHAT ARE YOU,
HIS MOTHER?
WHEN HE'S READY TO CONTACT YOU,
HE'LL GIVE YOU A CALL.
MIKE: SOMETHING HAPPENED,
DIDN'T IT?
SONNY: NO.
MIKE: LOOK, IF HE'S
IN DANGER, I WANT TO KNOW.
SONNY: MIKE, DON'T WORRY.
HE'S NOT IN DANGER.
MIKE: LOOK, I HEARD
THE RUMORS ABOUT MORENO.
DOES IT HAVE ANYTHING --
SONNY: THAT'S ALL I CAN TELL
YOU NOW, MIKE.
I'LL TELL JASON THAT YOU'RE
ASKING ABOUT HIM.
MIKE: ALL RIGHT.
JUST BE CAREFUL, SONNY.
JASON'S THE GUY WHO WATCHES
YOUR BACK.
SONNY: YEAH, I KNOW.

SOREL: EVERYTHING SET?
IT HAS TO LOOK LIKE AN ACCIDENT.
MAN: IT WILL.
SOREL: GOOD.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]
LAURA: HELLO.
STEFAN: IT'S STEFAN.
LAURA: I THOUGHT YOU WERE
AT HELENA'S TRIAL.
STEFAN: IT'S IN RECESS.
LAURA, I SAW NIKOLAS EARLIER
AND SOMETHING SEEMS TO BE
TROUBLING HIM.
I THOUGHT -- I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT
KNOW WHAT IT IS.
LAURA: I WISH I DID.
I NOTICED THE SAME THING
THE OTHER DAY.
STEFAN: REALLY?
WELL, MY PLAN IS TO INVITE HIM
TO WYNDEMERE FOR DINNER.
PERHAPS IN A FAMILIAR SETTING
HE'LL BE ABLE TO TELL ME
WHAT'S WRONG.
LAURA: THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.
THANK YOU.
STEFAN: FOR WHAT?
LAURA: FOR CONTINUING TO ACT
LIKE HE'S YOUR SON.
STEFAN: HE IS.
I LOVE BOTH HIM AND HIS MOTHER
VERY MUCH.
LAURA: I MISS YOU.
STEFAN: OH?
LAURA: I'M SORRY.
I KNOW THAT'S A MIXED MESSAGE,
ISN'T IT?
I --
I GUESS I JUST WANTED
YOU TO KNOW THAT THIS TIME APART
ISN'T EASY FOR ME, EITHER.
STEFAN: I MISS YOU, TOO.
LAURA: YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'VE GOT TO GET GOING.
I WAS GOING TO CALL LULU'S
BABYSITTER.
BUT IT WAS REALLY NICE TO HEAR
YOUR VOICE.
TAKE CARE.
BYE-BYE.

BOBBIE: YOUR TAKEOUT WILL BE
READY IN A MINUTE.
ROY: OK.
BOBBIE: YOU WANT SOME COFFEE
WHILE YOU WAIT?
ROY: NO, THANKS.
BOBBIE: I GOT SOME FRESH
APPLE PIE.
ROY: IT'S TEMPTING,
BUT I'M COOL.
SO HOW'S LUCAS?
BOBBIE: HE'S BETTER.
ROY: AND YOU?
BOBBIE: I'M JUST TAKING IT
DAY BY DAY.
ROY: I KNOW WHAT
THAT'S ABOUT.
BOBBIE: I GUESS THE BIG NEWS
IS I RENTED MY GROUND-FLOOR
APARTMENT.
ROY: IS THAT WHERE JERRY USED
TO STAY?
THAT'LL BE GOOD, HAVING SOMEBODY
IN THERE TO FILL UP THAT
EMPTY SPACE.
BOBBIE: YEAH, I THINK SO.
YOU KNOW, BECAUSE EVERY TIME
I WALKED PAST HIS DOOR I WOULD
THINK ABOUT THINGS.
YOU KNOW, HIS WARMTH, HIS HUMOR.
IT'S HARD.
CARLY: HEY, ROY --
ROY: HI, CARLY.
CARLY: LISTEN, I DON'T MEAN
TO BE RUDE, BUT I NEED TO SPEAK
TO MY MOTHER ALONE.
ROY: IT'S NOT A PROBLEM.
CARLY: THANK YOU.
BOBBIE: CARLY, WHAT'S UP?
CARLY: IT'S IMPORTANT.
ROY: I'M FINE.
CARLY: I WANT YOU TO LEAVE
WITH ME RIGHT NOW.
BOBBIE: WHY?
CARLY: I'M NOT SUPPOSED
TO SAY ANYTHING, SO DON'T LOOK
SURPRISED, OK?
JASON GOT SHOT.
BOBBIE: I KNOW.
LAURA: TINA, YOU KNOW WHAT?
I LOST MY --
TINA: OH, THERE YOU GO.
LAURA: AH, MY GLOVES.
GREAT. THANK YOU.
TINA: YOU'RE WELCOME.
LAURA: ROY?
ROY: HEY, LAURA.
LAURA: HI.
ROY: HI.
LAURA: I GOT YOUR LETTER.
ROY: MY LETTER?
I DIDN'T KNOW I SENT ONE.
LAURA: THE ONE ABOUT RENTING
A ROOM.
ROY: THAT WAS YOU?
BOBBIE: I TREATED JASON'S
WOUND, AND I HAVEN'T BEEN
BACK SINCE.
WHY?
HAS SOMETHING HAPPENED?
CARLY: WAIT A MINUTE.
YOU KNOW THE MAN THAT
I LOVE GETS SHOT
AND YOU DON'T EVEN SAY ANYTHING?
BOBBIE: HE SWORE ME
TO SECRECY.
CARLY: SO WHAT?
BOBBIE: I WAS RESPECTING
HIS WISHES, CARLY.
REMEMBER THAT.
CARLY: OK.
OK.
AT LEAST HE GOT
PROFESSIONAL HELP.
BOBBIE: I THOUGHT SONNY WAS
GETTING HIM A DOCTOR.
CARLY: YEAH.
APPARENTLY, IT SLIPPED HIS MIND.
MEANWHILE, HE'S HOLED UP
IN THIS, YOU KNOW -- THIS DRAFTY
LITTLE ROOM THAT WAS RENTED
BY YOUR WAITRESS,
ELIZABETH WEBBER.
BOBBIE: LET'S GO.

[DOORBELL RINGS]
ELIZABETH: NIKOLAS.
HI.
NIKOLAS: CAN I COME IN?
ELIZABETH: ACTUALLY, I'M NOT
GOING TO BE HERE FOR LONG.
NIKOLAS: WELL, THIS WILL ONLY
TAKE A MINUTE.
THANK YOU.
THE FIRST THING I WANT TO MAKE
CLEAR IS THAT I DID NOT COME
HERE TO FIGHT.
ELIZABETH: WELL,
THAT'S ENCOURAGING.
NIKOLAS: LOOK, I CAN
UNDERSTAND HOW RESCUING SOMEONE
IS IMPORTANT TO YOU.
YOU LOST LUCKY.
AND YOU DON'T WA THAT
TO HAPPEN AGAIN.
BUT JASON IS A CRIMINAL.
THE LONGER YOU'RE WITH HIM,
THE GREATER THE CHANCE YOU'LL
GET HURT.
ELIZABETH: YOU DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT JASON.
NIKOLAS: THAT'S WHERE
YOU'RE WRONG.
I DO KNOW.
I SAW WHAT HE DID TO ROBIN.
THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE WITH YOU.
THERE'S NO GETTING AWAY FROM IT,
ELIZABETH.
YOU'RE SLEEPING WITH A MAN WHO
IS USING YOU.

ELIZABETH: I HAVE TRIED
MY BEST NOT TO GO OFF ON YOU,
NIKOLAS.
BUT YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR.
I DON'T OWE YOU AN EXPLANATION
ABOUT WHAT I'M DOING.
AUDREY: EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT
DOWN THERE?
NIKOLAS: FINE, MS. HARDY.
NICE TO SEE YOU.
AUDREY: YES, NICE TO SEE YOU,
NIKOLAS.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO SIT DOWN?
NIKOLAS: NO, THANK YOU.
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO LEAVE.
REMEMBER WHAT I SAID.
ELIZABETH: YOU, TOO.
AUDREY: GOOD-BYE, NIKOLAS.
NIKOLAS: GOOD-BYE, MS. HARDY.
ELIZABETH: GRAM, I DIDN'T
REALIZE YOU WERE HOME.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I WAS GOING TO CHANGE, BUT IT'S
GOTTEN A LITTLE LATE.
I'LL SEE YOU AT DINNER, OK?
AUDREY: I NEED TO ASK
YOU A QUESTION, ELIZABETH.
ELIZABETH: CAN'T IT WAIT?
AUDREY: NO.
NOW, I WAS NOT EAVESDROPPING,
BUT I DID OVERHEAR YOUR
CONVERSATION WITH NIKOLAS.
ARE YOU INVOLVED WITH
JASON MORGAN?
ELIZABETH: NIKOLAS IS
MISTAKEN.
AUDREY: ABOUT WHAT
SPECIFICALLY?
ELIZABETH: GRAM, I KNOW WHAT
I'M DOING.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT ME.
AUDREY: I DON'T AGREE.
YOU'RE BARELY HOME ANYMORE.
I WANT TO KNOW WHY.
ELIZABETH: BECAUSE I'M
AT MY STUDIO.
AUDREY: DOING WHAT?
ELIZABETH: PAINTING.
AUDREY: IS THAT ALL?
ELIZABETH: YES.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU THINK IS
GOING ON, BUT I HAVEN'T DONE
ANYTHING WRONG.
AUDREY: NOR HAVE YOU GIVEN ME
A SIMPLE ANSWER TO MY QUESTION.
ELIZABETH: AND THIS IS NOT
A COURTROOM AND I'M NOT
ON TRIAL.
I'M SORRY, GRAM.
I HAVE TO GO.

LAURA: LUKE AND I BOUGHT THAT
HOUSE TO ACCOMMODATE A FAMILY.
AND THINGS HAVE CHANGED,
AS YOU KNOW.
AND, YOU KNOW, IT'S A LITTLE TOO
BIG FOR JUST LULU AND ME.
AND I THOUGHT ABOUT MOVING,
BUT THAT DIDN'T REALLY
INTEREST ME.
SO I THOUGHT, I'LL RENT OUT
A ROOM, PUT AN AD IN THE PAPER.
AND, YOU KNOW, I GOT A POST
OFFICE BOX FOR THE REPLIES.
ROY: HOW DO YOU
FEEL ABOUT EX-CONS?
LAURA: THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM.
IT'S JUST -- YOU KNOW WHAT
I WOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT?
ROY: HMM?
LAURA: YOUR FRIENDSHIP
WITH LUKE.

TAGGERT: HEY.
T A MINUTE?
JUAN: BEFORE YOU SAY
ANYTHING, I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO BE
IN SCHOOL TODAY.
TAGGERT: I KNOW.
JUAN: THEN WHAT DO YOU WANT?
TAGGERT: TO DISCUSS
YOUR LIVING ARRANGEMENTS.
JUAN: WHY NOW?
TAGGERT: BECAUSE THEY'RE
ABOUT TO CHANGE.
JUAN: LOOK, I KNOW YOU'RE
TRYING TO HELP ME, AND I'M
GRATEFUL FOR THAT.
BUT LIVING AT KELLY'S IS WORKING
OUT GREAT.
TAGGERT: YEAH, OF COURSE
IT IS.
YOU MAKE YOUR OWN RULES,
YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER
TO ANYBODY.
IT'S A REGULAR KID'S PARADISE.
JUAN: I'M NOT TAKING
ADVANTAGE, LIEUTENANT.
YOU CAN ASK ANYBODY.
TAGGERT: THE DISCUSSION
ON THIS SUBJECT IS CLOSED.
EITHER YOU MOVE IN WITH ME
OR YOU'RE GOING BACK
TO PUERTO RICO.
JUAN: THAT'S NOT FAIR.
TAGGERT: TO YOU OR TO ME?
JUAN: YOU GOT SOMEPLACE
IN MIND?
TAGGERT: A TWO-BEDROOM
APARTMENT IN BOBBIE
SPENCER'S HOUSE.
NOW, IF IT WORKS OUT
IN THE FIRST COUPLE OF MONTHS,
IT'S OURS FOR A YEAR.

LAURA: YOU AND LUKE ARE STILL
FRIENDS, AND YOU KNOW, I'M HPY
ABOUT THAT.
IT'S JUST THAT WE'RE GETTING
A DIVORCE, AND IT MIGHT LEAVE
YOU IN KIND OF AN AWKWARD
POSITION.
ROY: WELL, ONLY IF I LET IT.
AND I WOULDN'T.
I'M A BIG ADVOCATE OF MINDING
ONE'S OWN BUSINESS,
ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES
TO OTHER PEOPLE'S RELATIONSHIPS.
LAURA: REALLY?
ROY: OH, YEAH.
LAURA: WELL, THAT'S GOOD.
ROY: IT'S A GOOD THING, YEAH.
LAURA: OK.
WELL, THEN IN FURTHER INTEREST
OF PRIVACY -- YOURS,
THIS TIME -- YOU MIGHT WANT
TO KNOW THAT THE ROOM HAS STAIR
ACCESS TO THE BACK ENTRANCE
OF THE HOUSE, SO --
ROY: OK.
WELL, IT SOUNDS INTERESTING.
COULD I STOP BY AND TAKE A LOOK,
AND WE'LL JUST LEAVE IT THAT
THERE'S NO OBLIGATION TO EITHER
ONE OF US?
LAURA: SURE, SURE.
NO PROBLEM.
ROY: OK.
LAURA: YEAH.
GIVE ME A CALL.
ROY: WILL DO.
LAURA: ALL RIGHT.
ROY: GOOD TO SEE YOU.
LAURA: YOU, TOO.
ROY: OK.

CARLY: JASE?
JASON: I TOLD YOU
TO STAY AWAY.
CARLY: LOOK, I BROUGHT BOBBIE
WITH ME.
SHE JUST WANTS TO SEE HOW
YOU'RE DOING.
BOBBIE: HI, JASE.
HOW YOU DOING?
JASON: BETTER.
BOBBIE: GOOD.
MIND IF I TAKE A LOOK?
JASON: FINE.
I FELL THE OTHER DAY
AND THE WOUND OPENED UP.
IT QUIT BLEEDING PRETTY QUICKLY.
BOBBIE: OK.
WELL, THAT'S GOOD.
CARLY, COULD YOU GET ME SCISSORS
OVER THERE AND SOME ANTIBIOTIC
CREAM AND A GAUZE PAD.
CARLY: SURE, MOM.
BOBBIE: OK.
NOW, YOU CUT THE BANDAGE FOR ME
SO I CAN CHANGE IT.
CARLY: SORRY.
BOBBIE: AT'S GOOD.

JUAN: HAVE I GOTTEN
IN TROUBLE?
NO.
DO I GET As IN SCHOOL?
YES.
I HAVE A JOB AT A
RECORD COMPANY.
I DON'T HANG OUT.
WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE
24-HOUR POLICE SURVEILLANCE?
TAGGERT: YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG
TAKE ON THIS.
THINK ABOUT EMILY.
JUAN: WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
TAGGERT: WELL, YOU LIKE BEING
HER FRIEND, RIGHT?
JUAN: OF COURSE.
TAGGERT: WELL, HER FATHER
HATES IT.
HE'S LOOKING FOR A REASON
TO SEND YOU BACK TO PUERTO RICO,
AND HE'S NOT GOING TO GIVE UP
UNTIL HE FINDS ONE.
NOW, HE ALREADY CALLED
YOUR FATHER ONCE.
HOW MANY CHANCES DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE GOING TO GET?
JUAN: HOW CAN I CONTROL WHAT
EMILY'S FATHER DOES?
TAGGERT: BY MOVING
INTO A HOUSE OWNED BY A FRIEND
OF THE QUARTERMAINES, WITH A COP
AS A ROOMMATE.
THAT WAY HE WON'T HAVE ANYTHING
TO SAY.
AND IF HE DOES, NOBODY WILL
BELIEVE HIM.
JUAN: COULDN'T WE JUST TELL
PEOPLE WE'RE LIVING TOGETHER?
EMILY: HELLO.
JUAN: HEY.
TAGGERT: HEY.
JUAN: HOW'D IT GO?
EMILY: WELL, I'M NOT REALLY
SURE, BUT I DO KNOW THAT THAT
WAS MY LAST MIDTERM, SO I'M
VERY, VERY HAPPY THAT I'M DONE.
TAGGERT: ME, TOO.
THAT WAY YOU'LL HAVE TIME
TO HELP JUAN PACK.
EMILY: SO, ARE YOU GUYS
REALLY MOVING IN TOGETHER?
JUAN: YEAH, IT'S
HAPPENING SOON.
EMILY: ARE YOU UPSET?
JUAN: ARE YOU KIDDING?
IT'S JUST HOW I PLANNED IT.
EMILY: OH.
REALLY?
JUAN: YEAH, WELL, AS SOON
AS YOUR FATHER FINDS OUT I'M
LIVING WITH A POLICE OFFICER,
HE'LL HAVE NOTHING TO
COMPLAIN ABOUT.
EMILY: I THOUGHT THIS WAS
TAGGERT'S IDEA.
JUAN: WELL, I JUST LET HIM
TAKE CREDIT, YOU KNOW,
SO HE COULD FEEL LIKE HE WAS
HELPING ME OUT.
I GOT THE BALL ROLLING.
HE JUST FOLLOWED MY LEAD.
EMILY: OH.
HOW DID YOU POSSIBLY BECOME
SO SMART?
JUAN: I DON'T KNOW.

LARKIN: MR. DiLUCCA.
ROY: YEAH?
LARKIN: F.B.I.
ROY: THERE IS NOBODY
AROUND, LARKIN.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
LARKIN: UPDATE ON THE CASE
AGAINST CORINTHOS.
ROY: AN UPDATE ON THE --
WEREN'T YOU TAKEN OFF THAT CASE?
LARKIN: I'M STILL
AN INTERESTED PARTY.
ROY: TELL YOU WHAT, MAN.
YOU STAY THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY.
YOU WANT INFORMATION,
CHECK THE EVENING NEWS.
BUT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BLOW
THIS FOR ME THE WAY YOU BLEW IT
FOR HANNAH.
LARKIN: HEY, HEY, HEY.
I'M ON YOUR SIDE.
ROY: UH-HUH, UH-HUH.
IS THAT SO?
LARKIN: LOOK, I WISH
YOU LUCK.
DELIVER CORINTHOS AND YOU'
DONE WITH THE BUREAU, FREE TO GO
YOUR OWN WAY FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN 20 YEARS.
ROY: YEAH.
LIKE I SAID, YOU STAY OUT
OF MY WAY.

NIKOLAS' VOICE: THE FIRST
THING I WANT TO MAKE CLEAR IS
THAT I DID NOT COME HERE
TO FIGHT.
ELIZABETH: WELL,
THAT'S ENCOURAGING.
NIKOLAS: I CAN UNDERSTAND HOW
RESCUING SOMEONE IS IMPORTANT
TO YOU.
YOU LOST LUCKY.
AND YOU DON'T WANT THAT
TO HAPPEN AGAIN.
BUT JASON IS A CRIMINAL.
THE LONGER YOU'RE WITH HIM,
THE GREATER THE CHANCE YOU'LL
GET HURT.
ELIZABETH: YOU DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT JASON.
NIKOLAS: THAT'S WHERE
YOU'RE WRONG.
I DO KNOW.
I SAW WHAT HE DID TO ROBIN.
THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE WITH YOU.
THERE'S NO GETTING AWAY FROM IT,
ELIZABETH.
YOU'RE SLEEPING WITH A MAN WHO
IS USING YOU.
STEFAN: YOU WAITING
FOR SOMEONE?
NIKOLAS: I WAS JUST --
I WAS ADMIRING THE VIEW.
HOW'D IT GO IN COURT?
STEFAN: THE JUDGE ADJOURNED
PROCEEDINGS IMMEDIATELY AFTER
OPENING STATEMENTS.
NIKOLAS: HELENA CANNOT GET
AWAY WITH THIS.
SHE MURDERED KATHERINE,
AND SHE NEEDS TO GO TO JAIL.
STEFAN: NIKOLAS, THE VERDICT
WILL BE GUILTY.
I AM CERTAIN OF IT.
NIKOLAS: YEAH.
STEFAN: LISTEN, HAVE YOU MADE
DINNER PLANS THIS EVENING?
NIKOLAS: NO.
STEFAN: WHY NOT JOIN ME
AT WYNDEMERE.
I'LL HAVE THE STAFF PREPARE
A FEW TRADITIONAL DISHES.
WE'LL SPEND THE ENTIRE EVENING
NOT DISCUSSING HELENA.
NIKOLAS: I WANTED
TO APOLOGIZE.
I'M SORRY ABOUT EARLIER,
THAT I RUSHED AWAY.
I DIDN'T --
STEFAN: NO, NO, NO.
THERE'S NO NEED.
NIKOLAS,
IS SOMETHING TROUBLING YOU?
NIKOLAS: NOT REALLY.
YEAH, LET'S JUST SAY THAT --
LET'S JUST SAY THAT PROTECTING
PEOPLE ISN'T AS EASY
AS IT SEEMS.
STEFAN: IN WHAT WAY?
NIKOLAS: I HAVE A FRIEND WHO
IS MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE.
I TRY TO HELP, BUT ALL WE DO
IS ARGUE.
STEFAN: OH.
I UNDERSTAND THAT ALL TOO WELL.
NIKOLAS: YOU MEAN -- YOU MEAN
YOU AND ME?
STEFAN: WHEN WE FIRST ARRIVED
IN PORT CHARLES, I WAS
DETERMINED TO PROTECT
YOU AT ALL COSTS.
NIKOLAS: AND YOU'RE SO MUCH
BETTER NOW.
STEFAN: NIKOLAS, WHO ARE
YOU TRYING TO PROTECT?
NIKOLAS: ELIZABETH WEBBER.

BOBBIE: IT'S LOOKING A LOT
BETTER.
BUT YOU STILL NEED TO GET PLENTY
OF REST.
JASON: I'LL BE FINE.
BOBBIE: SIT DOWN, SIT DOWN.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE FINE
IF YOU PUSH YOURSELF.
DIDN'T SONNY SAY HE WAS GOING
TO TAKE YOU SOMEPLACE SAFE WHERE
YOU COULD BE ATTENDED
BY A DOCTOR?
JASON: THIS WAS EASIER.
BOBBIE: HAS IT OCCURRED
TO YOU IT COULD BE DANGEROUS
FOR YOU TO BE HERE BY YOURSELF?
JASON: I'M NOT.
ELIZABETH COMES AS OFTEN
AS SHE CAN.
BOBBIE: YEAH, WHEN SHE CAN'T
COME YOU GOT TO DO EVERYTHING
FOR YOURSELF.
JASON: THAT'S HOW I WANT
IT, BOBBIE.
BOBBIE: OK. ALL RIGHT.
I WON'T INSIST.
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, OK?
JASON: MM-HMM.
BOBBIE: CALL ME IF THIS WOUND
OPENS UP AGAIN, ALL RIGHT?
JASON: I'LL BE FINE.
BOBBIE: OK.
JASON: THANK YOU.
BOBBIE: ALL RIGHT.
YOU STAYING?
CARLY: YEAH.
BOBBIE: OK, HONEY, MAKE SURE
HE DOESN'T MOVE.
CARLY: I WILL.
BOBBIE: FEEL BETTER, JASON.
JASON: GO LOOK OUT
THE WINDOW.
CARLY: WHY?
JASON: BECAUSE AS SOON
AS BOBBIE'S OUT OF SIGHT, I WANT
YOU TO GET OUT OF HERE.
CARLY: I'M NOT GOING TO DO
THAT, JASON.
I CAN'T DO THAT.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]
LUKE: I'M HERE.
FAISON: DO I HAVE "IDIOT"
WRITTEN ALL ER ME?
DIDN'T I TELL YOU SPECIFICALLY
TO COME ALONE?
LUKE: WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
I CAME ALONE.
FAISON: WELL, WHO'S THAT BUM
BENEATH YOUR FEET?
I'M PRETTY DAMN SURE IT'S
THE COMMISSIONER, ISN'T IT?
NOW, GET RID OF HIM
OR YOUR PARTNER IN DECEPTION
WILL DIE.
LUKE: LOOK, MAN, WHOEVER IS
FOCUSING YOUR CAMERA FOR YOU,
WHY DON'T YOU JUST TL THEM
TO TAKE A NICE CLOSE-UP OF THIS
POOR WINO?
HANG ON.
HEY, PAL.
HERE.
GO GET A NICE CUP OF COFFEE.
FIRST, SOMEBODY WANTS TO TAKE
A PICTURE OF YOU.
SMILE.
I DON'T KNOW THAT GUY, DO YOU?
IT'S CERTAINLY NOT THE POLICE
COMMISSIONER.
NOW, COME ON.
I'M HERE FOR INFORMATION.
HAVE YOU GOT SOMETHING
I CAN USE?
WHERE SHALL I GO NEXT?

STEFAN: NIKOLAS, I DON'T WANT
TO PRY, BUT I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW
WHY ELIZABETH WEBBER NEEDS
YOUR PROTECTION.
NIKOLAS: ELIZABETH HAS BEEN
MY BEST FRIEND SINCE LUCKY DIED.
SHE IS KIND, GENEROUS.
SHE'S SMART.
EVERYTHING ABOUT HER IS
BEAUTIFUL.
BUT SHE IS STILL GRIEVING,
AND BECAUSE OF THAT SHE IS
MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE.
I'VE TRIED TO WARN HER,
BUT SHE WON'T LISTEN.
STEFAN: WELL, NIKOLAS,
IF SHE KNOWS HOW YOU FEEL
AND SHE CHOOSES TO IGNORE IT,
THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO
BUT WAIT IT OUT.
NIKOLAS: THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.
I HAVE TO STOP IT.

CARLY: ALL I WANT TO DO --
ALL I WANT TO DO, JASON,
IS HELP YOU.
JASON: CARLY, WHAT DO
YOU WANT ME TO SAY?
WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO SAY?
THAT IT HURTS ME?
IT HURTS ME TO LOOK
AT YOU BECAUSE I DON'T WANT
TO THINK ABOUT YOU SLEEPING
WITH MY BEST FRIEND.
CARLY: IT WAS WRONG.
I KNOW THAT.
AND IF I HAD IT TO DO
OVER AGAIN --
JASON: YOU DON'T HAVE IT
TO DO OVER AGAIN.
CARLY: WOULD YOU JUST
LET ME --
JASON: YOU CAN'T EXPLAIN.
YOU SHOULD GO.
CARLY: OK, MAYBE EXPLAINING
WON'T DO US ANY GOOD.
JASON: HAVEN'T YOU --
CARLY: I'M NOT GOING
TO LEAVE.
I'M NOT GOING TO LEAVE YOU HERE!
JASON: HAVEN'T YOU BEEN
LISTENING TO ME?
I CAN'T DEAL WITH YOU.
CARLY: JASON, I KNOW YOU,
AND YOU CAN'T DEAL WITH ME
BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO FEEL
ANYTHING.
BUT THAT'S NOT GOING TO WORK.
YOU CARE ABOUT ME.
YOU NEED TO STOP FIGHTING THIS.
YOU NEED TO LET ME BE WITH YOU.
YOU NEED TO LET ME HELP YOU.
ELIZABETH: I THOUGHT I TOLD
YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM HIM.

SONNY: IT'S A DOUBLE
SHIPMENT, SO WE'RE GOING TO NEED
EXTRA ROOM IN AISLE EIGHT.
TELL THE MAN THAT WHATEVER'S
STORED THERE --
ROY: SONNY, LOOK OUT!

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

>> ON THE NEXT
"GENERAL HOSPITAL" --

CHLOE: WE THINK WE HAVE A WAY
TO GET RID OF GERTRUDE.

MAC: LEAVE YOUR GUN
IN THE CAR.

CARLY: YOU OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T
CARE ABOUT YOUR BOYFRIEND
AND THAT'S WHY YOU'RE TRYING
TO STEAL MINE.
ELIZABETH: GOD HELP YOU.
CARLY: YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M GOING TO --
