ELIZABETH: WOW, LOOKS
INTENSE.
EMILY: YEAH.
I'M DOING A PAPER ON BLACK
HISTORY MONTH, AND,
WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHETHER
I WANT TO DO IT ON SOME FAMOUS
FIGURE OR SOMEBODY THAT I KNOW.
YOU KNOW MY COUSIN JUSTUS?
OK, HIS GRANDMOTHER WAS MARY MAE
WARD, AND SHE FOUNDED THE WARD
HOUSE.
ELIZABETH: YEAH, LUCKY USED
TO TELL ME ABOUT HER.
SHE SOUNDS WONDERFUL.
EMILY: YEAH.
SHE WAS A REALLY AMAZING PERSON.
SO WHAT I KIND OF WANTED TO DO
WAGO AROUND AND TALK TO PEOPLE
WHO KNEW HER AND THEN WRITE
THE PAPER ON HER LIFE.
ELIZABETH: WELL, THAT SOUNDS
PERFECT.
WHY WOULD YOU EVEN HESITATE?
EMILY: BECAUSE SHE WAS --
HOW DO YOU SAY IT? --
KIND OF INVOLVED WITH MY FAMILY,
AND IN THAT SENSE, THERE'S GOING
TO BE FIGHTS AND SECRETS AND ALL
KINDS OF STUFF.
BUT I DON'T KNOW.
I GUESS IT'LL BE WORTH IT.
THANKS.
YEAH, I GOT TO GO.
ELIZABETH: OK.
EMILY: THANKS.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ELIZABETH: WHAT'S THE MATTER?
EMILY: DON'T MOVE.
EMILY: DID HE SEE ME?
ELIZABETH: TAGGERT?
EMILY: YEAH.
I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM SINCE
HE CAUGHT ME IN JUAN'S ROOM.
ELIZABETH: OH, DID HE GET
THAT BIG SEX LECTURE YET?
EMILY: NO.
LOOK, I'M GOING TO TRY TO SNEAK
OUT OF HERE, OK, BEFORE
HE SEES ME.
Cover me.
ELIZABETH: Ok.
Ready? Go.

TAGGERT: OH, IT'S A LITTLE
COLD FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT,
ISN'T IT? HANNAH: NAH,
IT'S ONLY 28.
TAGGERT: HEY, YOU WANT
TO HAVE DINNER TONIGHT?
I SEE THEY HAVE SALMON CAKES
ON THE SPECIAL.
HANNAH: NO, THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
I THINK I'LL JUST PROBABLY GRAB
SOMETHING A LITTLE LATER UP
IN MY ROOM.
TAGGERT: TAMMY DOES A MEAN
SALMON CAKE.
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO LAST.
HANNAH: ARE YOU ALWAYS THIS
PUSHY?
TAGGERT: WELL, I PREFER
TO CALL IT PERSUASIVE AND,
YES, I AM.
HANNAH: ALL RIGHT.
GIVE ME A SECOND TO SHOWER.
TAGGERT: YOU GOT IT.

EDWARD: OH, MONICA,
MY DEAR, YOU'RE JUST IN TIME
TO JOIN ME IN A TOAST.
MONICA: TOAST?
WHAT -- TO WHAT?
EDWARD: A.J. HASN'T TOLD
YOU YET?
MONICA: NO, HE HASN'T,
BUT WHAT ARE YOU UP TO, EDWARD?
EDWARD: NOT A THING.
BUT YOU AND A.J. NEED TO HAVE
A CONVERSATION VERY SOON,
AND WE'LL SAVE OUR TOAST
FOR A LATER TIME.
[EDWARD WHISTLES]
MONICA: WHATEVER HE HAS DONE,
WE CAN FIX.
A.J.: FOR ONCE, THIS HAS
NOTHING TO DO WITH GRANDFATHER.
MONICA: WELL, THEN,
WHAT'S THE BIG NEWS?
A.J.: YOU'RE GOING TO BE
A GRANDMOTHER AGAIN.
CARLY AND I ARE HAVING ANOTHER
BABY.

STEFAN: MR. KERRIGAN.
YOU COME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
MR. KERRIGAN: TELL ME WHAT
YOU NEED.
STEFAN: I WANT YOU TO PUT
TOGETHER A SMALL TASK FORCE.
MR. KERRIGAN: FOR WHAT
PURPOSE?
STEFAN: THE RESCUE OF A YOUNG
MAN WHO'S BEING HELD PRISONER.
HELENA: YOUNG MR. SPENCER HAS
BEEN ON THE ESTATE FOR WEEKS.
HE'S NEVER TRIPPED THE ALARM
BEFORE.
WHY NOW?
RESTLESSNESS IS NOT
A SATISFACTORY EXPLANATION.
NOW, IF THERE'S EVEN A CHANCE
OF AN INTRUDER, I WANT TO KNOW
ABOUT IT.
IN THE MEANTIME, DOUBLE
THE SECURITY.

FELICIA: THANK GOD.
I WASN'T SURE WE'D MAKE IT.
LUKE: I DIDN'T THINK
THE FLIGHT WAS THAT BAD.
FELICIA: NO, I'M --
I'M TALKING ABOUT THE CAB RIDE
FROM THE AIRPORT.
I THOUGHT THAT DRIVER WAS
INTENTIONALLY GOING TO TRY
TO KILL THE PEOPLE ON
THE STREETS.
DON'T YOU?
LUKE: YEAH, WELL,
THAT'S AN OLD GREEK CUSTOM.
KEEPS THE GRINGOS ON THEIR TOES.
FELICIA: OR DEAD.
LUKE: WELL, WE'RE HERE NOW,
SO YOU MAY AS WELL RELAX AND GET
COMFORTABLE.
WE'VE GOT A BIG NIGHT AHEAD.
FELICIA: OK.
OK, CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN, HOW ARE
YOUR NAVIGATIONAL SKILLS?
YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING TO BE
ABLE TO FIND THE CASSADINE
ISLAND IN THE DARK?
LUKE: OH, MY DEAR,
DON'T WORRY ABOUT A THING.
I HAVE THE CUTTING-EDGE,
HIGH-TECH EQUIPMENT.
I'VE GOT CHARTS AND GRAPHS
AND MAPS.
I'VE GOT COMPASSES ALL RIGHT UP
HERE.
YEAH, SO THERE'S NOTHING
TO WORRY ABOUT.
OH.
OH!
ANY OTHER CONCERNS?
FELICIA: YEAH.
IF LUCKY IS ON THE ISLAND,
THERE'LL BE GUARDS, AND THEY'LL
HAVE GUNS.
WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT GUNS?
LUKE: WELL, EVEN IF LUCKY
ISN'T ON THE ISLAND, THE GUARDS
HAVE GUNS.
AND AS I RECALL, THEY'RE A TAD
TRIGGER-HAPPY.
THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WE'RE
GOING AT NIGHT.
OH.
LOOK, THERE'S NOTHING
FOR YOU TO WORRY ABOUT.
I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE, FELICIA.
IT'LL BE OK.
SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL GET
COMFORTABLE AND RELAX.
FELICIA: OK.
LUKE: YOU KNOW, WE GOT
A COUPLE OF HOURS TO KILL.
[LUKE THROWS HIS SHOE]
FELICIA: COULD WE -- I DON'T
KNOW -- YOU WANT TO SLEEP OR EAT
OR EAT?
LUKE: EAT.
YOU WANT TO EAT?
FELICIA: LET'S EAT.
LUKE: SURE.
HOW ABOUT ROOM SERVICE?
FELICIA: WHAT IS IT?
LUKE: THIS IS SOME STREET
GRUB I GRABBED WHILE THAT TAXI
DRIVER WAS UNLOADING THE BAGS.
FELICIA: BE MY GUEST.
LUKE: NO, NO. NO, NO.
BELIEVE ME, THERE'S PLENTY
FOR BOTH OF US.
FELICIA: NO, THAT'S OK.
I HAVE BIRD SEED IN MY BAG.
I'LL BE FINE.
FELICIA: ARE YOU THINKING
ABOUT LUCKY?

[KNOCK ON DOOR]
MAC: IT'S OPEN.
NIKOLAS.
NIKOLAS: HELLO, COMMISSIONER.
MAC: WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?
NIKOLAS: LISTEN,
ELIZABETH WEBBER IS IN TROUBLE,
AND I WAS HOPING YOU COULD HELP.
MAC: WHAT HAPPENED?
NIKOLAS: THERE'S THIS MAN
NAMED SOREL WHO -- HE'S BEEN --
[INTERCOM BUZZES]
MAC: HOLD ON A SECOND.
NIKOLAS: SURE.
MAC: I HAVE TO TAKE THIS.
IT MIGHT BE MY WIFE.
YEAH, PUT HER THROUGH.
HI, SWEETHEART.
EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?
FELICIA: GREAT.
COULDN'T BE BETTER.
JUST CALLING TO SEE HOW
EVERYONE IS.
MAC: WELL, THE GIRLS MISS
YOU.
HOW'S THE WINDY CITY?
FELICIA: OH -- OK, I SUPPOSE.
I HAVEN'T REALLY HAD A CHANCE
TO GET OUT IN IT.
MAC: COME UP WITH ANYTHING
NEW ON LILA'S MEMOIRS?
FELICIA: NO, NOT YET.
I'M HOPING FOR A BREAKTHROUGH
SOON.
MAC: HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT?
WHY DON'T YOU GIVE ME A PHONE
NUMBER WHERE I CAN REACH YOU,
AND I'LL HAVE THE GIRLS CALL
YOU TONIGHT.
FELICIA: YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND
OF CRAZY HERE.
MAYBE IT'S BETTER THAT I JUST
CALL YOU.
MAC: WHATEVER YOU SAY.
FELICIA: WELL, I'D BETTER GET
BACK TO WORK.
I -- I MISS YOU.
MAC: SAME HERE.
FELICIA: BYE.
MAC?
MAC?
MAC: SORRY ABOUT THAT.
SO, WHAT WOULD SOREL WANT
WITH ELIZABETH?
NIKOLAS: I'M NOT SURE.
I DON'T KNOW THE SPECIFICS,
ONLY THAT SONNY CORINTHOS PUT
A FULL-TIME GUARD ON ELIZABETH
AFTER HE -- AFTER SOREL HAD
THREATENED HER.
MAC: IN WHAT WAY?
NIKOLAS: I'M NOT SURE.
IF ELIZABETH WEREN'T IN TROUBLE,
WHY WOULD CORINTHOS WANT
TO PROTECT HER?
MAC: ARE THEY FRIENDS?
NIKOLAS: ELIZABETH THINKS SO.
IS THERE ANY WAY THAT THIS SOREL
GUY CAN BE ARRESTED
FOR HARASSMENT?
MAC: YEAH, IF ELIZABETH WANTS
TO FILE CHARGES.
NIKOLAS: WELL, SHE WON'T.
MAC: WELL, MAYBE YOU CAN TRY
AND CONVINCE HER.
NIKOLAS: I HAVE TRIED.
MAC: NIKOLAS, LOOK,
I'M SORRY.
I MEAN, IF -- IF ELIZABETH DOES
NOT FILE CHARGES AGAINST SOREL,
THERE'S JUST NOT MUCH I CAN DO.
I WILL SEND A PATROL CAR
BY KELLY'S, SEE IF ANY
OF SOREL'S PEOPLE ARE HANGING
AROUND.
NIKOLAS: NO, THERE WON'T BE,
AT LEAST AS FAR AS I CAN TELL.
I MEAN, THE ONLY PERSON I HAVE
SEEN THERE IS SONNY'S GUARD.
MAC: WELL, THEN MY ADVICE IS
TO TRY AGAIN WITH ELIZABETH,
CONVINCE HER TO FILE A COMPLAINT
AGAINST SOREL.
NIKOLAS: I'LL DO WHAT I CAN.
MAC: ALL RIGHT.
NIKOLAS: THANKS.

LUKE: DID YOU TRY SOME?
GO AHEAD, GO AHEAD, GO AHEAD.
IT'S YOUR LAST CHANCE.
FELICIA: DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHAT THIS IS OR WHERE IT'S BEEN?
LUKE: IT'S SHISH KABOB.
FELICIA: I MEAN SPECIFICALLY.
LUKE: WELL, SPECIFICALLY,
I HOPE IT'S SOME KIND OF ANIMAL.
SEE, WITH THIS GREEN SAUCE,
EVERYTHING TASTES LIKE CHICKEN.
FELICIA: YOU'RE A VERY
COURAGEOUS MAN, LUKE.
LUKE: TELL ME.
YOU REMEMBER THAT FISH TACO
IN MEXICO?
FELICIA: YEAH, I DO.
WHAT KIND OF SAUCE IS THAT,
ANYWAY?
LUKE: GREEN.
FELICIA: HOW CAN YOU DO THIS
TO YOURSELF?
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT'S
IN THERE, DO YOU?
LUKE: SURE, I DO.
FELICIA: WHAT?
LUKE: OH, A DASH OF HISTORY,
A SALT OF THE EARTH, AND A WHOLE
BUNCH OF CULTURE DOWN THROUGH
THE YEARS.
FANTASTIC.
FELICIA: ARE YOU DONE NOW?
LUKE: YEAH, FOR NOW.
FELICIA: ALL RIGHT.
LET'S GO OVER THE PLANS AGAIN.
LUKE: WHY DON'T I SHOW
YOU A MAP OF THE ISLAND?
FELICIA: OK.
LUKE: OK.
THIS IS THE CASSADINE ISLAND.
NOW, SEE, WE'LL BE COMING
IN FROM HERE, AND WHAT WE WANT
TO DO IS HANG ABOUT 100 YARDS
OFFSHORE, AND THEN WE'LL GO
IN WITH THE ROW BOAT.
NOW, HERE ARE CLIFFS.
WE HAVE TO CLIMB THOSE, AND THEN
WE MAKE OUR WAY DOWN THIS VALLEY
AND OVER HERE TO THE CASSADINE
COMPOUND.
FELICIA: MM-HMM. THEN?
LUKE: AND THEN
WE WING IT.
FELICIA: WE WING IT?
YOU KNOW THAT'S INSANE,
DON'T YOU, TO WING IT?
LUKE: YEAH, I KNOW IT'S
INSANE.
BUT I'M NOT A FOOL.

MONICA: YOU AND CARLY ARE
HAVING ANOTHER BABY?
A.J.: THAT'S RIGHT.
MONICA: WELL, ISN'T THIS
A SURPRISE.
A.J.: I KNOW THAT CARLY
AND I, WE DON'T HAVE A PERFECT
MARRIAGE, BUT MICHAEL'S DONE
A LOT TO BRING US CLOSER,
AND I EXPECT THAT THIS NEW BABY
WILL DO THE SAME.
EXCUSE ME.
I DIDN'T HEAR YOU.
MONICA: I DIDN'T SAY
ANYTHING.
A.J.: I KNOW.
MONICA: OH, OH, I'M SORRY.
A.J.: YEAH.
MONICA: I AM SORRY.
CONGRATULATIONS.
A.J.: THANK YOU.
MONICA: I DIDN'T KNOW THE TWO
OF YOU WERE PLANNING ON HAVING
ANOTHER CHILD.
A.J.: WE WEREN'T.
BUT IT HAPPENED, AND WE'RE
ECSTATIC.
MONICA: WELL, I WISH
YOU AND THE NEW BABY ALL
THE LUCK IN THE WORLD.
ALAN: SOMEONE'S HAVING
A BABY?
MONICA: A.J.?
A.J.: CARLY'S PREGNANT.
ALAN: YOU'RE KIDDING.
THAT'S WONDERFUL.
I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER FOR YOU.
A.J.: THANK YOU.
IT MEANS A LOT.
ALAN: WHEN IS SHE DUE?

A.J.: YOU KNOW, IT'S FUNNY
YOU SHOULD MENTION THE DUE DATE.
I GUESS I WAS SO EXCITED WHEN
I HEARD THE NEWS THAT I NEVER
THOUGHT TO ASK.
MONICA: WELL, THEN,
ARE YOU SURE SHE'S EXPECTING?
A.J.: ABSOLUTELY.
SPEAKING OF CHILDREN, I SHOULD
CHECK IN ON MY FIRST-BORN.
ALAN: YOU LOVE SAYING THAT,
DON'T YOU?
A.J.: VERY MUCH.
ALAN: SO, DOES MICHAEL KNOW
HE'S GOING TO HAVE A SISTER
OR BROTHER?
A.J.: NOT YET.
WE'LL PROBABLY WAIT UNTIL
CARLY'S FURTHER ALONG.
ALAN: WELL, THIS IS A VERY
EXCITING TIME FOR YOU
AND YOUR FAMILY.
I WANT YOU TO ENJOY EVERY MINUTE
OF IT.
A.J.: I WILL.
ALAN: YOU THINK IT'S POSSIBLE
FOR YOU TO RAISE JUST A MODICUM
OF ENTHUSIASM?
MONICA: WELL, YOU CANNOT SELL
THEM TO ME AS A FUNCTIONAL
COUPLE.
THEIR MARRIAGE HAS TOO MANY
PROBLEMS THAN ANOTHER BABY
WILL FIX.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]
LAURA: STEFAN.
STEFAN: I KNOW IT'S LATE.
MY PLANE JUST GOT IN.
I NEEDED TO SEE YOU RIGHT AWAY.
LAURA: COME IN, COME IN.
I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU.
I WAS A LITTLE BIT WORRIED WHEN
I DIDN'T HEAR FROM YOU.
IS EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?
STEFAN: I'M SORRY.
I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T CALL.
I JUST DIDN'T WANT TO WASTE
A MOMENT GETTING BACK TO YOU.
LAURA: WELL, I'M NOT
COMPLAINING.
HOW WAS THE TRIP?
STEFAN: EXTREMELY PRODUCTIVE.
IN A SHORT TIME, I WILL KNOW
EXACTLY HOW MUCH SO.
LAURA: GREAT.
I WANT TO HEAR EVERYTHING
ABOUT IT.
LET ME JUST TAKE THE MILK UP
TO LULU.
STEFAN: RIGHT.
TELL HER I SAID HELLO.
LAURA: OK.
LAURA: ONE OF MY FAVORITE
PICTURES OF HIM.
STEFAN: I CAN SEE WHY.
LAURA: I WISH THAT YOU COULD
HAVE KNOWN HIM BETTER.
HE WAS AN EXTRAORDINARY PERSON.
STEFAN: YOUR SON COULD BE
NOTHING LESS.
LAURA: OH, GOSH, IT'S SO HARD
TO BELIEVE THAT HE'S GONE.

LUKE: YOU GOT ANY MORE
QUESTIONS, NOW WOULD BE A REAL
GOOD TIME TO ASK THEM.
FELICIA: YEAH.
IT'S BEEN ALMOST A YEAR SINCE
THE FIRE IN JASON'S GARAGE.
IF HELENA DOES HAVE LUCKY,
WHY DO YOU THINK SHE KEPT HIM
FOR SO LONG?
LUKE: INSURANCE.
FELICIA: AGAINST WHAT?
LUKE: I DON'T KNOW.
PICK SOMETHING.
IS IT HOT IN HERE?
FELICIA: NO, NOT TO ME.
LUKE: OH.
MUST BE JUST ADRENALINE.
OR MAYBE IT'S BEING
IN THE MEDITERRANEAN WITH YOU.
LISTEN, THERE'S SOMETHING I NEED
YOU TO KNOW, AND THAT IS THAT
FOR WHATEVER REASON HELENA'S
DONE THIS, IF SHE CATCHES WIND
THAT WE'RE ONTO HER, SHE'S QUITE
CAPABLE OF KILLING LUCKY.
SO, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO NOT GET
CAUGHT.
WE CAN'T LEAVE CLUES.
FELICIA: WE'RE NOT GOING
TO GET CAUGHT.
LUKE: RIGHT, OK.
LET'S DO IT.
FELICIA: OK.
LUKE: OH.
FELICIA: LUKE?
LUKE: OH.
FELICIA: WHAT IS IT?

EDWARD: REGINALD SAID
YOU WANTED TO SEE ME.
WHAT HAS THAT DELINQUENT
BOYFRIEND OF YOURS DONE
NOW, HMM?
EMILY: OH -- NO, NO, IT'S NOT
JUAN.
I ACTUALLY AM -- I WANT
TO INTERVIEW YOU FOR A CLASS
PROJECT.
EDWARD: OH.
WELL, IN THAT CASE, I WILL BE
DELIGHTED TO SHARE MY INSIGHTS
ON AMERICAN BUSINESS
WITH YOUR CLASSMATES.
EMILY: ACTUALLY,
IT'S FOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH.
I WANT TO INTERVIEW
YOU ON MARY MAE WARD.
I THOUGHT THAT YOU COULD HELP.
EDWARD: HMM.
WELL, MARY MAE IS AN EXCELLENT
SUBJECT, AND HER --
HER CONTRIBUTIONS TO
THE COMMUNITY ARE IMMEASURABLE.
EMILY: YEAH, I KNOW THAT
SHE FOUNDED WARD HOUSE,
BUT I CAN GET THAT FROM
THE LIBRARY.
I ACTUALLY -- I WANTED TO KNOW
HOW YOU FELT ABOUT HER.
EDWARD: WELL, THERE'S
NO SECRET THERE.
I HAD TREMENDOUS ADMIRATION
FOR HER.
EMILY: DIDN'T YOU ALSO LOVE
HER AT ONE POINT?
EDWARD: VERY MUCH.
EMILY: SO HOW COME YOU DIDN'T
STAY WITH HER?
WAS IT BECAUSE SHE WAS BLACK?

TAGGERT: IN BETWEEN RUNNING
AND SKATING, DID YOU GET
A CHANCE TO GET THE BALLISTICS
REPORT ON THE MARKHAM CASE?
HANNAH: YES.
I GAVE IT TO DARA JENSEN THIS
MORNING.
SHE SAID SHE WOULD GET
YOU A COPY.
TAGGERT: OH, YEAH, YEAH.
SHE LEFT ME A MESSAGE.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT'S WHAT IT WAS
ABOUT.
HANNAH: HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW
DARA?
TAGGERT: WHY DO YOU ASK?
HANNAH: WELL, I WAS JUST
WONDERING IF I DID ANYTHING
TO OFFEND HER.
DID YOU NOTICE ANYTHING
DIFFERENT IN OUR MEETING LAST
WEEK?
TAGGERT: DARA WAS FORMAL,
YEAH.
HANNAH: MAYBE I'M
OVERSENSITIVE, BUT IT FEELS LIKE
SHE RESENTS ME FOR TAKING
ON SOME OF HER CASES.
TAGGERT: LOOK, IT'S NOT YOU.
IT'S ME.
ME AND DARA,E USED TO DATE.
YOU KNOW, WE'RE CORDIAL
WITH EACH OTHER AT WORK,
BUT I DON'T THINK SHE'S UP
TO SOCIALIZING.
HANNAH: DID IT END BADLY?
TAGGERT: BETTER THAN SOME,
WORSE THAN OTHERS.
HANNAH: YOU TELL ME WHAT
HAPPENED?
TAGGERT: I FOUND OUT SHE WAS
HUNG UP ON ANOTHER MAN.
HANNAH: HMM.
THAT CAN BE ROUGH.
TAGGERT: I JUST LEARNED
A GOOD LESSON -- DON'T GET
INVOLVED WITH A WOMAN WHOSE
HEART BELONGS TO ANOTHER MAN.

LAURA: I TOOK THIS OUT
TO SHOW LULU.
IT WAS OUR FIRST CHRISTMAS
WITHOUT LUCKY, AND SHE WAS JUST
MISSING HIM SO MUCH.
AND HAVING -- HAVING THIS HERE
WAS GOOD FOR BOTH OF US.
STEFAN: MUST BE SO DIFFICULT
EXPLAINING LUCKY'S DEATH TO --
TO HIS SISTER.
LAURA: YEAH.
ESPECIALLY WHEN I CAN'T EXPLAIN
IT TO MYSELF.
YOU KNOW, I'VE DONE EVERYTHING
IN MY POWER TO MAKE PEACE
WITH THE FACT THAT LUCKY'S GONE.
I'VE --
I'VE GRIEVED.
I'VE KEPT BUSY.
I'VE TRIED TO MOVE ON.
BUT I JUST CAN'T STOP LONGING
FOR THINGS TO BE THE WAY
THEY WERE.
STEFAN: I'M SO SORRY.
LAURA: I'M SORRY.
IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.
THIS JUST HAPPENS SOMETIMES.
I --
I -- YOUR TRIP --
YOU WERE GOING TO TELL ME ABOUT
THE TRIP, RIGHT?
SO, WHAT HAPPENED?
DID YOU FIND OUT WHAT HELENA'S
UP TO?
STEFAN: UNFORTUNATELY, NO.
SHE WAS TIPPED OFF TO MY VISIT.
SHE WAS GONE BY THE TIME
I ARRIVED.
LAURA: OH.
I THOUGHT YOU JUST SAID THAT IT
WAS VERY PRODUCTIVE.
STEFAN: WELL, IT WAS --
IT WAS PRODUCTIVE.
HELENA IS -- SHE'S TAKING
SIGNIFICANT RISKS, AND I AM
GOING TO TURN THOSE
TO MY ADVANTAGE.
WHICH IS WHY I HAVE TO LEA
AGAIN.
LAURA: SOON?
STEFAN: YES, YES, RIGHT AWAY.
IT'S FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
LAURA: ALL RIGHT.
I DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU FEEL
GUILTY.
EFAN: NO.
LAURA,
THIS SHOULDN'T TAKE LONG.
AND WHEN I RETURN,
OUR REUNION MAY BE CAUSE
FOR CELEBRATION.
ALL RIGHT?
LAURA: OK.
STEFAN: I LOVE YOU.
LAURA: I LOVE YOU, TOO.

FELICIA: LUKE, WHAT IS WRONG
WITH YOU?
TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG.
LUKE: WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
SOMETHING'S WRONG?
FELICIA: DO YOU WANT ME
TO CALL A DOCTOR?
LUKE: NO.
I DON'T NEED A DOCTOR.
I JUST NEED A LITTLE --
I JUST NEED A LITTLE AIR.
FELICIA: WAIT, WAIT,
WAIT, WAIT.
COME HERE. SIT DOWN, SIT DOWN.
YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK IS WRONG
WITH YOU?
I THINK THAT YOU HAVE FOOD
POISONING.
LUKE: OH.
FROM WHAT?
FELICIA: OH, I DON'T KNOW.
MAYBE THOSE BACTERIA-INFESTED
KABOBS YOU JUST INHALED.
LUKE: NO, NO, COULDN'T BE
THAT.
MAYBE THE MILK WAS OFF
IN MY COFFEE THIS MORNING.
WELL, WHAT DO I TAKE FOR IT?
FELICIA: NOTHING.
LUKE: DO YOU MEAN I'M GOING
TO DIE?
FELICIA: NO, YOU JUST HAVE
TO RIDE THIS OUT.
LUKE: RIDE IT -- RIDE IT OUT?
FELICIA: WELL, THE GOOD
NEWS -- IT LASTS ONLY 24 HOURS.
LUKE: OH, GREAT.
WHAT'S THE BAD NEWS?
FELICIA: THOSE 24 HOURS MAKE
HELL SEEM LIKE A NICE PLACE
TO VISIT.
[LUKE MOANS]

LESLEY: DID I HEAR SOMEONE
AT THE DOOR A LITTLE WHILE AGO?
LAURA: STEFAN.
LESLEY: AHA.
WELL, HE DIDN'T STAY LONG.
LAURA: HE CAME STRAIGHT
FROM THE AIRPORT.
HE WANTED TO SEE ME BEFORE
HE WENT HOME.
LESLEY: HE CERTAINLY DOES
WORK HARD AT BEING THOUGHTFUL.
LAURA: HE IS THOUGHTFUL.
LESLEY: OBVIOUSLY.
LAURA: I ALSO LIKE THE FACT
THAT HE REALLY, REALLY WANTED
TO SEE ME AND THAT HE CARES
ENOUGH ABOUT ME TO LET ME KNOW
WHERE HE IS.
LESLEY: AS OPPOSED TO --
LAURA: THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M
DOING.
LESLEY: COULD'VE FOOLED ME.
LAURA: I DON'T EXPECT LUKE
TO UPDATE ME ABOUT HIS LIFE
ANYMORE, BUT LULU -- YOU KNOW,
SHE'S ONLY 5 YEARS OLD,
AND HE DIDN'T EVEN SAY GOOD-BYE
TO HER.
I KNOW IT'S NOT THAT BIG
OF A DEAL, BUT I CAN SEE
THE EFFECT THAT IT HAD ON HER.
LESLEY: WELL, MAYBE THERE WAS
A REASON.
MAYBE SOMETHING CAME UP
AND HE JUST HAD TO LEAVE RIGHT
AWAY.
LAURA: YEAH, WELL,
THAT'S JUST IT.
WHAT IS IT THAT IS SO IMPORTANT
THAT HE CAN'T SAY GOOD-BYE
TO HIS OWN DAUGHTER?

FELICIA: SOON AS WE GET HOME,
I'M GOING TO INTRODUCE
YOU TO A BOOK THAT I HAVE CALLED
"THE JOY OF TOFU."
LUKE: OH, PLEASE, I'M SICK
ENOUGH.
DON'T TALK ABOUT BEAN CURD.
FELICIA: OH, BUT IT'S VERY
HEALTHY AND SO LIGHT
ON THE STOMACH.
LUKE: MY STOMACH IS FINE,
REALLY.
ANYBODY CAN CATCH A BAD SLICE
OF SHISH-KABOB.
FELICIA: OH, SO YOU'RE
FEELING BETTER?
LUKE: YEAH, SOME.
FELICIA: I THINK MAYBE
YOU SHOULD TAKE A NAP.
LUKE: NO, I DIDN'T COME HERE
TO NAP.
I CAME HERE TO FIND MY SON.
WE'RE GOING TO GO FIND HIM.
FELICIA: OH, NO, NO, NO.
NO, NO --
LUKE: NO, REALLY --
FELICIA: LIE DOWN.
WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL
YOU'RE 100%.
LUKE: I'M FINE.
I REALLY -- I'M FINE.
FELICIA: ARE YOU REALLY?
FINE ENOUGH TO DRIVE A BOAT
THROUGH THE SEA, PEERING
INTO THE DARKNESS, NEVER KNOWING
WHEN THE NEXT WAVE WILL COME
AROUND AND BUMP YOU AROUND --
LUKE: OK --
FELICIA: HERE AND THERE --
LUKE: OK, OK. OK.
POINT TAKEN.
FELICIA: I'M ANXIOUS,
TOO, LUKE, BUT THERE'S A LOT
HERE AT STAKE.
I REALLY THINK YOU SHOULD WAIT
THE FULL 24 HOURS.
LUKE: 24 HOURS.
FELICIA: YEAH.
LUKE: HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?
FELICIA: 10 MINUTES.

EMILY: I KNOW THAT YOU LOVED
MARY MAE, BUT DID YOU EVER THINK
ABOUT MARRYING HER?
EDWARD: NO.
IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE.
EMILY: WHY?
EDWARD: WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
I WAS ENGAGED TO LILA,
AND I LOVED HER FAR TOO MUCH
TO JUST TURN MY BACK ON HER.
EMILY: I THOUGHT YOU SAID
YOU LOVED MARY MAE.
EDWARD: I LOVED THEM BOTH.
IT'S POSSIBLE, YOU KNOW.
IT'S COMPLICATED,
BUT IT'S POSSIBLE.
EMILY: OK, SO HOW DID
YOU CHOOSE BETWEEN THEM?
EDWARD: I FOLLOWED MY HEART.
IN T END, I REALIZED THAT LILA
WAS CLEARLY THE ONLY WOMAN
FOR ME.
EMILY: BUT IF THERE HAD BEEN
NO LILA, WOULD YOU HAVE THOUGHT
ABOUT MARRYING MARY MAE?
EDWARD: AS MUCH AS I WOULD
LIKE TO HAVE THE ANSWER BE YES,
THE UNFORTUNATE PART IS THAT
I WAS A PRODUCT OF MY TIMES.
IN THOSE DAYS, A WHITE MAN
OF MY BACKGROUND SIMPLY DID NOT
MARRY A WOMAN OF COLOR.
EMILY: GRANDFATHER,
YOU COULD'VE BEEN THE FIRST ONE.
EDWARD: NO.
IT WOULD'VE MEANT LOSING
EVERYTHING I KNEW, EVERYTHING
I HAD.
OH, MY FAMILY WOULD'VE ABANDONED
ME, AND SUCCESS IN BUSINESS
WOULD HAVE BEEN NEXT
TO IMPOSSIBLE.
NO.
I'M ASHAMED TO ADMIT THAT
I DIDN'T HAVE THAT KIND
OF COURAGE.
EMILY: DON'T YOU FIND
THAT SAD --
I MEAN, THAT SOMETHING LIKE --
LIKE COLOR COULD KEEP TWO PEOPLE
WHO LOVE EACH OTHER APART?
EDWARD: OF COURSE I DO.
BUT ON THE POSITIVE SIDE,
I REALLY THINK THAT
THE SITUATION IS IMPROVING.
PEOPLE TODAY SEEM MORE ACCEPTING
OF EACH OTHER'S DIFFERENCES,
DON'T THEY?
EMILY: IF MARY MAE WAS AROUND
TODAY, DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD'VE
MARRIED HER?
EDWARD: OH.
OH, I DON'T KNOW, EMILY.
MARY MAE AND I SPENT A LIFETIME
APART.
WE FOUND OTHER LOVES AND HAD
CHILDREN BY THEM, BUILT
OUR LIVES AROUND THEM.
I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHETHER
OR NOT WE WOULD BE TOGETHER
IN THE PRESENT.
ALL I DO KNOW IS THAT I --
I LOVED AND ADMIRED MARY MAE
VERY MUCH.
EMILY: THANK YOU
FOR YOUR HONESTY, GRANDFATHER.
NOW, I'M GOING TO GET THIS DOWN
ON COMPUTER WHILE IT'S STILL
FRESH IN MY MIND.
EDWARD: MAY I -- MAY I READ
IT WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED?
EMILY: ABSOLUTELY.
THANKS FOR TELLING ME ABOUT
MARY MAE.
SHE SOUNDED LIKE AN INCREDIBLE
PERSON.
EDWARD: THAT SHE WAS.
EMILY: WILL YOU TELL ME ABOUT
HER AGAIN SOME DAY?
EDWARD: WHENEVER YOU WANT.

HANNAH: I'M NEVER GOING
TO FORGIVE YOU.
TAGGERT: FOR WHAT?
HANNAH: FOR FORCING ME
TO HELP YOU FINISH YOUR DESSERT.
TAGGERT: FORCING YOU?
YOU PRACTICALLY RIPPED THAT
RIGHT OUT FROM UNDER ME.
HANNAH: ONLY TO SAVE
YOU FROM ALL THOSE CALORIES.
TAGGERT: OH, YEAH.
HA-HA-HA.
SO, WHAT, ARE YOU GOING TO GO
RUN THEM OFF NOW?
HANNAH: NO, BUT A WALK WOULD
BE NICE.
TAGGERT: OH, WOULD YOU LIKE
SOME COMPANY?
HANNAH: I'D LOVE IT.
TAGGERT: GOOD.
HANNAH: OH, LET ME GET
MY PART.
TAGGERT: I INVITED YOU,
RIGHT?
HANNAH: THANK YOU.
TAGGERT: YOU'RE WELCOME.
MAC: HI.
HANNAH: HI.
MAC: HEY.
TAGGERT: HEY, NICE NIGHT,
ISN'T IT?
MAC: YEAH, WELL, IT COULD'VE
BEEN.
EXCUSE ME.
ELIZABETH: HI, COMMISSIONER.
WHAT CAN I GET FOR YOU?
MAC: A COUPLE MINUTES
YOUR TIME.
ELIZABETH: OK.
WHY?
MAC: LOOK, I HEARD YOU HAD
A RUN-IN WITH ONE OF OUR MOST
PROMINENT CRIMINALS.
ELIZABETH, THIS ISN'T SOMETHING
TO HIDE FROM THE POLICE, OK?
FILE A COMPLAINT, AND I'LL MAKE
SURE YOU DON'T GET HURT.
ELIZABETH: A COMPLAINT
AGAINST WHOM?
MAC: IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT.
NIKOLAS ALREADY TOLD ME THAT
YOU WERE THREATENED BY SOREL.
ELIZABETH: WELL,
NIKOLAS WASN'T THERE.
HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED.
MAC: WAS HE MISTAKEN?
ELIZABETH: MR. SOREL
AND I HAD A CONVERSATION.
THAT'S ALL.
IF I'D NDED HELP, I WOULD'VE
ASKED FOR IT.
MAC: YOU ALREADY HAVE.
BUT YOU WENT TO THE WRONG
PERSON.
OR IS IT A COINCIDENCE THAT ONE
OF SONNY'S BODYGUARDS IS
WATCHING THE BUILDING?
ELIZABETH: I'M REALLY OK.
MAC: LOOK, THIS IS MY PRIVATE
LINE.
IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND,
PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL.
MAC: ARE YOU HERE TO SEE
ELIZABETH?
NIKOLAS: WELL, YEAH.
ISN'T THAT WHAT YOU TOLD ME
TO DO?
MAC: DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP.
NIKOLAS: WHY, WHAT HAPPENED?
MAC: I TRIED TO GET
HER TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST
SOREL.
SHE WOULDN'T GO FOR IT.
NIKOLAS: COMMISSIONER,
DID YOU TELL HER THAT I SPOKE
TO YOU?
MAC: NIKOLAS, I HOPE THAT
DOESN'T MESS YOU UP, BUT I HAD
TO GIVE IT A TRY.
LOOK, YOU DID THE RIGHT THING
BY COMING TO ME, ALL RIGHT?
SHE'LL GET OVER IT.

MARY MAE: MM-HMM.
YEAH.
EDWARD: I'M GLAD YOU DIDN'T
STOP COMPLETELY.
IT WOULD BE A SHAME.
A VOICE LIKE THAT,
SILENCED.
YOU KNOW,
AS A MATTER OF FACT,
IT WAS YOUR VOICE THAT
SET OFF THE CHAIN OF EVENTS THAT
RESULTED IN BRADLEY'S BIRTH.

ELIZABETH: IT DOESN'T MATTER
THAT YOU WERE TRYING
TO PROTECT ME.
YOU DID EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED
YOU NOT TO DO.
NIKOLAS: I COULDN'T JUST SIT
BY AND WATCH YOU PUT YOURSELF
IN DANGER, ELIZABETH.
I WOULD RATHER HAVE YOU ALIVE,
EVEN IF THAT MEANS YOU'RE MAD
AT ME.
ELIZABETH: IN THE PAST TWO
MONTHS, YOU HAVE CRITICIZED
EVERYTHING I DO, EMBARRASSED ME
IN PUBLIC, AND REPORTED
MY ACTIVITIES TO THE POLICE.
WHAT KIND OF FRIENDSHIP IS THAT?

LAURA: ANYWAY, WHATEVER LUKE
DOES OR DOESN'T DO IS NONE
OF MY BUSINESS, AND I KNOW THAT.
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO LULU,
I NEED TO KNOW THAT I CAN COUNT
ON HIM.
LESLEY: ARE YOU SURE THAT
THIS IS JUST ABOUT LULU?
HE'S BEEN AWAY FROM HER BEFORE
WITHOUT IT UNSETTLING
YOU SO MUCH.
LAURA: WERE YOU ALWAYS THIS
PERCEPTIVE?
LESLEY: WHEN IT COMES TO YOU,
YEAH.
BABY, YOU HAVE TO MAKE
A DECISION.
YOU HAVE TO EITHER LET LUKE GO
FOREVER OR START WORKING
YOUR WAY BACK TO HIM.
LAURA: I HAVE LET HIM GO,
AND HE'S DONE THE SAME WITH ME.
THERE IS NO GOING BACK.
IT'S OVER.
LESLEY: IF YOU SAY SO.
LAURA: AND ALL THE TIME
I SPEND LOOKING BACK ONLY HURTS
THE PEOPLE AROUND ME.
ESPECIALLY STEFAN.
LESLEY: OH, I WOULDN'T WORRY
TOO MUCH ABOUT STEFAN.
HE SEEMS MORE THAN CAPABLE
OF TAKING CARE OF HIMSELF.
LAURA: NO.
NO, HE'S NOT.
NOT ALWAYS, NOT WITH ME.
THERE'S A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY
BETWEEN US AND A LOT OF BAD
TIMING AND SECRETS.
BUT, STILL, THERE IS
KIND OF A BOND BETWEEN US,
ONE THAT I'M NOT ABLE TO BREAK.
I MEAN, MOST OF THE TIME I DON'T
EVEN WANT TO, BUT --
ANYWAY, ANYWAY, THINGS ARE
PRETTY GOOD BETWEEN THE TWO
OF US RIGHT NOW, AND I'M HOPING
THAT THINGS WILL WORK OUT
FOR THE TWO OF US.
LESLEY: HE IS A VERY
SECRETIVE MAN.
IT WOULD BE FOOLISH TO IGNORE
THAT.
LAURA: I'M NOT.
BUT I THINK THAT HE HAS FINALLY
LEARNED THAT THE TRUTH IS
SOMETHING THAT WE CAN FACE
TOGETHER.

MR. KERRIGAN: I'LL HAVE
MY TEAM ASSEMBLED IN A FEW DAYS.
STEFAN: SOME OF MY OWN PEOPLE
WILL BE A PART OF THAT TEAM.
MR. KERRIGAN: ANYTHING ELSE?
STEFAN: I WILL BE JOINING
YOU PERSONALLY ON THE MISSION.
MR. KERRIGAN: YOU WANT
THRILLS, TRY BUNGEE-JUMPING.
EVERYONE ON MY TEAM HAS TO BE
A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL.
STEFAN: I WILL BE SUCCINCT.
EITHER I AM A PART OF THAT
RESCUE OR YOU HAVE NO MISSION.
I MUST BE THE ONE TO DELIVER
THAT BOY TO FREEDOM.

LUKE: ARE YOU READY TO GIVE
UP YET, MRS. SCORPIO, AND STOP
BEING SO STUBBORN?
FELICIA: I'M PERFECTLY
COMFORTABLE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
LUKE: WELL, THERE'S NO POINT
IN BOTH OF US BEING MISERABLE.
FELICIA: YOU JUST THINK I'M
AVOIDING GETTING INTO BED
WITH YOU.
LUKE: DUH.
FELICIA: WELL, YOU'RE WRONG.
YOU'RE SICK, AND I'M SIMPLY
GIVING YOU THE SPACE THAT
YOU NEED IN ORDER TO RECOVER.
LUKE: WELL, THAT'S VERY KIND
OF YOU.
IF IT MAKES ANY DIFFERENCE
TO YOU, I'M FAR TOO WEAK TO --
YOU KNOW -- BE A PROBLEM.
FELICIA: I'M FINE.
REALLY.
LUKE: OK, THAT LOOKS
COMFORTABLE.
GOOD NIGHT.
FELICIA: I THINK YOU MIGHT
HAVE A POINT.
LUKE: YEAH, I MIGHT.
FELICIA: OK.
FELICIA: YOU SURE I'M NOT
BOTHERING YOU?
LUKE: YEAH, I'M SURE.
YOU'RE FINE.

HELENA: SEND ME LUCKY
SPENCER'S MOST RECENT TAPES.
I WANT TO CHART HIS PROGRESS
FOR MYSELF.
YES, I KNOW HE'S BEEN DOING VERY
WELL, BUT WE CAN'T AFFORD
TO TAKE ANY CHANCES.
WE MIGHT HAVE TO MOVE MORE
QUICKLY THAN PLANNED.

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

>> ON THE NEXT
"GENERAL HOSPITAL" --

LUKE: GOOD MORNING, ORPHEY.

LAURA: HE'S OUT OF TOWN
AGAIN.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE?

TONY: SEE ANY COLORS
OR SPES?

CHLOE: WHY CAN'T I SEE?

MONICA: WE'RE BOTH GOING
TO BE GRANDMOTHERS AGAIN,
AREN'T WE?
TELL ME IT IS NOT JASON'S.
