ALEXIS: SAY THAT AGAIN.
STEFAN: YOU HEARD ME
CORRECTLY.
LUCKY SPENCER IS ALIVE --
ALEXIS: DIED IN A FIRE NEARLY
A YEAR AGO.
STEFAN: I HAVE SEEN HIM
ALEXIS.
ALEXIS: MAYBE SOMEBODY
RESEMBLING HIM?
STEFAN: IT WAS LUCKY.
I'M ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN.
ALEXIS: SO HOW IS THIS
POSSIBLE?
STEFAN: HELENA.
IN LEAGUE WITH CESAR FAISON.
ALEXIS: I'M NOT ABSORBING
THIS -NOT YET, ANYWAY.
STEFAN: THERE IS NOT A MOMENT
TO WASTE.
HELENA IS HOLDING LUCKY.
AND IF SHE REALIZES SHE'S BEEN
DISCOVERED, WHO KNOWS WHAT
SHE MIGHT DO.
ALEXIS: KILL.
THAT'S WHY SHE TRIED TO RUN ME
DOWN WITH THE CAR.
SHE THOUGHT I KNEW ABOUT LUCKY.
STEFAN: I HAVE TO ACT FAST
TO RETRIEVE THE BOY AND BRING
HIM BACK TO HIS MOTHER.
ALEXIS: ARE YOU SURE THAT
LAURA WANTS YOU TO GO DO THIS
BY YOURSELF?
STEFAN: LAURA DOESN'T
KNOW YET.
ALEXIS: WELL, DON'T YOU THINK
YOU SHOULD TELL HER?
DON'T YOU THINK YOU SHOULD
INFORM LUKE?
WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME?
STEFAN: BECAUSE I NEED
YOUR HELP.

[MUSIC PLAYS]
HANNAH: YOU'RE WASTING
YOUR TIME.
MAN: DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH SELF-ESTEEM?
HANNAH: I HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH RACISTS.
MAN: OH. SO YOU PICK A BOY
FROM THE HOOD OVER ONE
OF YOUR OWN?
HANNAH: YOU'RE NOT ONE
OF MY OWN.
YOU'RE AN IDIOT.
MAN: THAT'S A GREAT SONG
FOR DANCING.
HANNAH: YOU KNOW WHAT?
GO HOME, PUT YOUR WHITE SHEET
ON, AND DANCE WITH YOURSELF
IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR.
MAN: I'D RATHER DANCE
WITH YOU.
HANNAH: OH, WELL, THAT'S NOT
GOING TO HAPPEN.
ROY: MY MAN, MY MAN,
YOU'RE OUT OF HERE.
MAN: SAYS WHO?
ROY: SAYS ME.

ELIZABETH: SONNY AND CARLY?
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
HE DOESN'T EVEN LIKE HER.
EMILY: DO YOU HAVE TO LIKE
SOMEONE TO GET THEM PREGNANT,
ELIZABETH?
IN CARLY'S CASE, NO.
ELIZABETH: LOOK, I DON'T KNOW
WHO YOU HEARD THIS FROM, BUT IT
HAS GOT TO --
EMILY: A.J. -- A.J., OK?
THE REST OF MY FAMILY
KNOWS, TOO.
SONNY CAME OVER AND
ANNOUNCED IT.
AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN DENY IT,
ELIZABETH.
ELIZABETH: THIS DOESN'T MAKE
SENSE.
EMILY: ACTUALLY, IT DOES WHEN
YOU THINK ABOUT IT.
OK, JASON LEFT TOWN, RIGHT?
HIS BEST FRIEND SLEPT WITH CARLY
AND GOT HER PREGNANT.
GOOD REASON TO ME.
ELIZABETH: AND ALL THIS TIME
AT MY STUDIO, JASON WAS
COMPLETELY DESTROYED
BUT HE WOULDN'T SAY WHY.
EMILY: WELL, NOW YOU KNOW.
SONNY: HEY, LADIES.
EMILY: HOW CAN YOU SMILE
IN MY FACE AFTER WHAT YOU DID
TO MY BROTHER?

[DOORBELL RINGS REPEATEDLY]
CARLY: JUST WANT TO THANK
YOU, MOTHER, FOR MY VALENTINE'S
DAY GIFT.
THAT WAS YOU, RIGHT?
SONNY CORINTHOS IN MY FACE?
BOBBIE: I TOLD HIM, YES.
CARLY: DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
THAT YOU JUST RUINED MY LIFE?
BOBBIE: HONEY, LISTEN
TO ME, OK?
CARLY: NOT JUST MY LIFE!
NOT JUST MY LIFE.
YOU RUINED YOUR GRANDCHILDREN'S
LIFE, TOO.
AND I HOPE YOU'RE VERY PLEASED
WITH YOURSELF.

CARLY: HOW COULD YOU DO THAT
TO ME?
BOBBIE: I DIDN'T GO TO SONNY.
HE CAME HERE LAST NIGHT.
HE ASKED ME POINT-BLANK.
HE FIGURED THE WHOLE THING OUT
ON HIS OWN.
SO WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO SAY?
CARLY: "NO, SONNY, YOU'RE NOT
THE FATHER!"
THAT'S WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED
TO SAY.
BOBBIE: I COULDN'T DO THAT.
CARLY: WHY? WHY?
BOBBIE: HONEY, HE ALREADY
KNEW.
CARLY: OH, PLEASE, COME ON --
BOBBIE: HE WAS LOOKING
FOR CONFIRMATION.
AND THE LONGER YOU WERE GOING
TO TRY TO HIDE IT, THE WORSE IT
WAS GOING TO BE FOR YOU,
FOR MICHAEL, AND FOR THE BABY.
CARLY: WHY DO I CONFIDE
IN YOU, ANYWAY?
YOU KNOW WHAT?
YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN ON MY SIDE,
NOT ONE TIME.
BOBBIE: OH, DON'T -- DON'T
START WITH THAT, OK?
CARLY: EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE
WAS GOING FINE.
YOU SEND SONNY IN TO BLOW IT
APART.
BOBBIE: SONNY'S UPSET, OK?
JUSTIFIABLY SO.
BUT I'M SURE HE WILL CALM DOWN.
CARLY: WHAT ABOUT MONICA?
DO YOU THINK SHE'S GOING TO CALM
DOWN?
DO YOU THINK A.J.'S GOING
TO CALM DOWN?
THEY WANT ME OUT --
WITHOUT MICHAEL, MOTHER.
MICHAEL'S A QUARTERMAINE.
THEY ALREADY KNEW I WAS DIRT.
BOBBIE: I BEGGED SONNY NOT
TO DO ANYTHING RASH.
CARLY: WELL, I BEGGED YOU NOT
TO TELL HIM, SO SO MUCH
FOR BEGGING, HUH?
I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.
YOU CALL YOURSELF A NURSE.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.
IF PRENATAL STRESS IS REALLY BAD
FOR BABIES, THIS ONE WILL BE
BORN WITH TWO HEADS FOR SURE.
BOBBIE: I WILL TALK
TO MONICA, OK?
CARLY: DON'T TALK TO ANYONE!
DON'T TALK TO THE QUARTERMAINES,
DON'T TALK TO SONNY.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
DON'T EVER, EVER TALK TO ME
AGAIN.

EMILY: JASON CONSIDERED
YOU HIS BROTHER.
THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY HIM?
SONNY: EMILY, LISTEN TO ME.
I AM -- I'M SORRY.
BUT THIS IS BETWEEN ME
AND JASON.
EMILY: NO, SONNY.
YOU CAN'T JUST BLOW ME OFF LIKE
THAT.
I KNOW THAT YOU MAY BE THE ADULT
AND I MAY BE A CHILD, BUT WHAT
YOU DID WAS A HORRIBLE THING
TO MY FAMILY.
YOU DON'T EVEN DESERVE
MY RESPECT, YOU KNOW THAT?
YOU'RE A HORRIBLE PERSON.
HOW DO YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF?
SONNY: THIS IS MY BUSINESS,
EMILY.
EMILY: SONNY, YOU SLEPT
WITH MY SISTER-IN-LAW
AND YOU GOT HER PREGNANT.
SONNY: KEEP IT --
EMILY: I DON'T CARE ABOUT
CARLY, OK?
BUT I DO CARE ABOUT JASON,
AND I CARE ABOUT A.J.
YOU BETRAYED BOTH OF THEM.
ELIZABETH: EMILY, I THINK
HE GOT THE MESSAGE.
EMILY: NO WONDER NOBODY
LIKES YOU.
I NEVER GOT IT BEFORE, BUT NOW
I DO --
MIKE: EXCUSE ME.
FRANCIS TOLD ME YOU WERE
WAITING.
I'M SORRY I'M LATE.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO TAKE A TABLE?
SONNY: NO, MIKE.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
I'VE GOT SOMEWHERE I'VE GOT
TO BE.
YOU ALL RIGHT?
ELIZABETH: MM-HMM, FINE.
SONNY: EMILY,
FOR WHATEVER IT'S WORTH, I AM
SORRY, AND I HATED --
EMILY: IT'S WORTH NOTHING,
SONNY.
SONNY: ALL RIGHT.
MIKE: WHAT YOU JUST SAID
ABOUT CARLY'S BABY -- THERE'S
NO POSSIBILITY THAT'S TRUE.
EMILY: OH, COME ON, MIKE.
YOU HEARD HIM TRY TO JUSTIFY
HIMSELF.
MIKE: WELL, SOMETIMES
THE MORE THAT SONNY'S FEELING,
YOU SEE, THE LESS HE SAYS.
EMILY: YEAH, WELL, HE HAD
A LOT TO SAY WHEN HE DROPPED
THIS WHOLE THING ON MY FAMILY.
HE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS
DOING.
HE KNEW WHAT CARLY MEANT
TO JASON.
MIKE: ELIZABETH,
WOULD YOU PLEASE TELL TAMMY THAT
I'LL CALL HER LATER, OK?
ELIZABETH: MM-HMM.
EMILY: DON'T EVEN SAY THAT
I WAS TOO HARD ON SONNY.
ELIZABETH: I WAS ABOUT TO SAY
IT ALL MAKES SENSE -- WHY JASON
DIDN'T WANT TO GO BACK
TO THE PENTHOUSE, THE LOOK
ON HIS FACE EVERY TIME CARLY
CAME AROUND, THE WEIRD VIBES
BETWEEN JASON AND SONNY.
EMILY: I CAN'T BELIEVE
THEY DID THIS TO JASON.
ELIZABETH: WELL, JASON'S NOT
THE ONLY ONE THAT'S HURTING.
IT'S OBVIOUS THAT SONNY'S
HURT, TOO.
EMILY: DON'T EVEN WORRY ABOUT
SONNY.
MOST PEOPLE THAT GET INVOLVED
WITH HIM GET WRECKED ANYWAY.

ROY: LISTEN, YOU SHOULD FILE
THIS AWAY FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE -- WE DON'T WANT
YOUR BUSINESS HERE.
MAN: WHY, BECAUSE I'M NOT
POLITICALLY CORRECT?
HANNAH: BECAUSE YOU'RE A JERK
AND A CREEP.
ROY: MAYBE YOU MISSED
THE SIGN AT THE DOOR -- "JERKS
AND CREEPS UNWELCOME."
TAGGERT: IS THERE A PROBLEM
HERE?
MAN: YEAH, HOMEBOY, THERE IS
A PROBLEM.
TAGGERT: MAYBE WE SHOULD
CLEAR IT UP.
MAN: OH, PERFECT.
HOMEBOY'S GOT A BADGE.
TAGGERT: THAT'S NOT ALL.
MAN: YEAH -- A WHITE
GIRL, TOO.
TAGGERT: I STRONGLY SUGGEST
YOU MOVE ALONG.
MAN: ENJOY YOUR SLUMMING.
HANNAH: DROP DEAD.
TAGGERT: COME ON.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT HIM.
COME ON.
HANNAH: YOU SHOULD HAVE
ARRESTED HIM.
TAGGERT: FOR WHAT, A RACIST
ATTITUDE?
ROY: I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT
INSTALLING A RADAR DEVICE
AT THE DOOR TO WEED THEM OUT.
TAGGERT: HEY, LISTEN,
THANKS FOR STEPPING IN THERE.
ROY: IT WAS MY PLEASURE.
HANNAH: DOESN'T THAT DRIVE
YOU CRAZY?
TAGGERT: I'D BE CRAZY ALL
THE TIME.
HANNAH: YOU'RE TELLING ME
YOU'RE ACCUSTOMED TO THIS?
HOW NAIVE AM I?

ALEXIS: WHAT DO YOU WANT ME
TO DO?
STEFAN: I WANT YOU
TO DOCUMENT HELENA'S ROLE
IN LUCKY SPENCER'S ABDUCTION,
BUILD AN IRREFUTABLE CASE,
AND SEND HER TO PRISON.
ALEXIS: WELL, AS MUCH
AS I WOULD LOVE TO DO THAT,
I CAN'T BECAUSE THAT'S NOT
MY JOB.
IT'S THE JOB OF THE D.A. AND
POLICE.
STEFAN: I WANT YOU TO MAKE
A CASE TOO COMPELLING TO BE
BOTCHED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT.
ALEXIS: STEFAN, DON'T
YOU THINK THAT WE SHOULD BE
CONCENTRATING ON RESCUING LUCKY
AND MAKING SURE THAT HE STAYS
ALIVE?
STEFAN: I WILL DEAL WITH THAT
WHILE YOU DEAL WITH
THE LEGAL END.
ALEXIS, HELENA MURDERED
YOUR MOTHER.
SHE HAS MURDEROUS INTENTIONS
TOWARD YOU.
I WOULD ASSUME YOU SHARE
MY EAGERNESS TO SEE
HER NEUTRALIZED ONCE
AND FOR ALL.
ALEXIS: ONLY IF IT GIVES
HER GREAT PAIN.
STEFAN: SO THEN YOU'LL
HELP ME?
ALEXIS: ON ONE CONDITION --
YOU TELL LAURA EVERYTHING.

ALEXIS: STEFAN, LAURA IS
LUCKY'S MOTHER.
SHE HAS A RIGHT TO KNOW.
STEFAN: SHE WILL KNOW AS SOON
AS THE BOY'S OUT OF DANGER.
ALEXIS: SHE THINKS HER SON IS
DEAD.
STEFAN: HE WILL BE DEAD
IF HELENA EVEN SUSPECTS
HER SECRET HAS BEEN EXPOSED.
ALEXIS: SHE WOULDN'T DO
ANYTHING TO PUT HER SON AT RISK.
STEFAN: NO, NOT
INTENTIONALLY.
BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK LAURA
WOULD DO IF I TOLD HER HER SON
IS BEING HELD?
ALEXIS: CALL THE POLICE.
STEFAN: YES, THE BUNGLING
FOOLS WHO ALLOWED HELENA
TO ELUDE THEM AGAIN AND AGAIN.
ALEXIS: THEN CALL LUKE.
STEFAN: OH, THAT WOULD BE
A PROBLEM.
ALEXIS: A PROBLEM FOR WHOM?
YOU?
STEFAN: LUKE WOULD RUSH
IN THERE WITH HIS OWN PRIVATE
POSSE.
ALEXIS: ISN'T THAT WHAT
YOU'RE DOING?
STEFAN: HE HAS NO OBJECTIVITY
IN THIS.
ALEXIS: WELL, WHAT DO
YOU EXPECT?
STEFAN: THAT IS THE POINT.
LUKE WOULD BE CLUMSY.
THERE IS NO WAY HE COULD RESCUE
LUCKY WITHOUT ALERTING HELENA
IN THE PROCESS.
ALEXIS: HE'S DONE IT BEFORE
WHEN HE RESCUED LAURA.
STEFAN: WE CAN'T AFFORD
TO TAKE THAT CHANCE.
ALEXIS: YOU CAN'T AFFORD
TO TAKE THAT CHANCE.
ISN'T THAT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT?
YOU WANT TO BE THE HERO.
YOU WANT TO BE THE ONE THAT
LAURA'S BEHOLDEN TO.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO ADMIT THAT
TO YOURSELF, BUT WILL
YOU AT LEAST ADMIT IT TO ME?
STEFAN: YOU'RE WRONG, ALEXIS.
WHAT I'M DOING IS PROTECTING
LAURA IN THIS.
WHAT IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG?
SHOULD I ROUSE LAURA'S HOPES
FOR NO REASON?
SHE'S ALREADY GRIEVED FOR LUCKY
ONCE.
SHOULD SHE BE MADE TO GRIEVE
FOR HIM AGAIN?
ALEXIS: ON ONE HAND,
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT RESCUING
LUCKY.
ON THE OTHER HAND, YOU HAVE SOME
CONTINGENCY PLAN IN CASE
HE DOESN'T SURVIVE.
STEFAN: YOU'RE NOT HEARING
ME, ALEXIS.
ALEXIS: NO, YOU'RE NOT
HEARING YOURSELF.
ARE YOU AFRAID THAT IF LUCKY
GETS RESCUED THAT THE WHOLE
FAMILY WILL GET BACK TOGETHER
AGAIN?
ISN'T THAT MAYBE THE LAST THING
THAT YOU WANT?
STEFAN: IF I WERE AFRAID
OF LUCKY'S RETURN, I WOULDN'T BE
PLANNING IT, NOW, WOULD I?
I WOULDN'T HAVE INFORMED
YOU THAT THE BOY IS STILL ALIVE.
YES, I BELIEVE I CAN SAVE HIM.
BUT THERE IS A GREAT DEAL
OF RISK INVOLVED.
WHAT IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG
AND LUCKY IS KILLE
WHAT IF HELENA MURDERS THE BOY
OUTRIGHT?
DO YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE I SHOULD
SET LAURA UP TO ENDURE THAT LOSS
AGAIN?
ALEXIS: NO.
STEFAN: THANK YOU.
ALEXIS: BUT IF LAURA FINDS
OUT ABOUT THIS --
STEFAN: ARE YOU STILL
FIGHTING ME ON THIS, OR WILL
YOU DO WHAT I ASK?
ALEXIS: I'LL PLAY IT
YOUR WAY.
I JUST REALLY HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE DOING.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]
SONNY: WHAT?
YEAH, I GOT CARLY PREGNANT.
IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR?
MIKE: LOOK, I JUST WANTED
TO TELL YOU THAT --
SONNY: TRUTH OR FALSE WON'T
CUT IT?
OK, YOU KNOW WHAT?
FINE.
LET'S COVER THIS FAST.
YEAH, I SCREWED UP BIG TIME.
NO, I DID NOT PLAN IT.
HOW -- HOW THE HELL DO I KNOW?
THE DARK SIDE OF ME TOOK OVER
ONE NIGHT.
WHY?
I DON'T KNOW THAT, EITHER.
THE HANNAH THING -- BUT -- NO.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO MAKE THAT
AS AN EXCUSE.
I TRIED TO PRETEND THAT I WAS
DOING, YOU KNOW, JASON A FAVOR.
BUT THAT DIDN'T FLY EVEN
WITH ME.
MIKE: SONNY --
SONNY: I AM -- HOLD ON.
I AM GARBAGE!
OK?
IF YOU WANT TO EXPAND,
KEEP IT SHORT.
MIKE: I JUST CAME TO TELL
YOU THAT I KNOW THAT YOU'RE
HURTING.
AND IS THERE SOMETHING I CAN DO
TO HELP?

TAGGERT: SO, I CALLED TO SET
UP A CONVENIENT TIME
TO INTERVIEW THE VIC.
AND SHE SAYS THANKS AND THEN
SHE ADDS, WHAT A PLEASURE IT IS
GOING TO BE TO SEE ANOTHER WHITE
FACE.
HANNAH: SO WHAT'D YOU DO?
TAGGERT: SHOWED UP,
CONDUCTED THE INTERVIEW.
HANNAH: CALM, CRISP,
AND PROFESSIONAL?
TAGGERT: LOOK,
I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ALL
MY LIFE.
YOU KNOW, WHITE PEOPLE,
THEY DON'T LIKE ME BECAUSE I'M
BLACK.
BLACK PEOPLE DON'T LIKE ME
BECAUSE I'M NOT BLACK ENOUGH.
YOU KNOW, SO WHAT DO YOU DO?
I MEAN, I CAN GO THROUGH
MY WHOLE LIFE BEING THIS ANGRY,
BITTER PERSON WHO HATES
THE WORLD, OR I CAN LOOK
FOR THE POSITIVES AND COUNT
MY BLESSINGS.
AND THAT'S WHAT I CHOOSE TO DO.
CAN I ASK YOU A PERSONAL
QUESTION?
HANNAH: SURE.
TAGGERT: HOW MANY BLACK GUYS
HAVE YOU DATED?
HANNAH: IS THERE A PARTICULAR
ANSWER THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR?
TAGGERT: YOU WANT
AN ACCEPTABLE RANGE?
HANNAH: YES, I DO.
TAGGERT: HOW ABOUT BETWEEN
ZERO AND 10?
HANNAH: OH.
WELL, WHAT IF I'VE DATED MORE
THAN 10?
TAGGERT: THEN I'D SAY YOU'RE
WORKING ON A PATTERN.
HANNAH: MY ONLY PATTERN --
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT'S ABOUT.
TAGGERT: YEAH.
WELL, YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO SEARCH
THE CONTENT OF YOUR CHARACTER
BEFORE HAVING DINNER WITH ME
TONIGHT.
HANNAH: NO.
BUT I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU.
I WONDERED ABOUT THE CONTENT
OF YOURS.
TAGGERT: HMM?
HANNAH: I WONDERED
IF THE REASON WHY YOU ASKED ME
OUT WAS TO GET BACK AT SONNY
SOMEHOW.
TAGGERT: NEGATIVE.
AND YOU?
HANNAH: TO TRY TO GET BACK
AT SONNY?
NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT.
TAGGERT: GOOD.
NOW THAT WE'VE CLEARED THAT UP,
WE CAN --
HANNAH: WHAT ARE WE GOING
TO ORDER?

ROY: HEY.
THE ELECTRICITY CAME BACK ON.
BOBBIE: HI.
ROY: WHAT?
BOBBIE: YOU KNOW, I HOPE I'M
WRONG, BUT THERE'S A STRONG
POSSIBILITY THAT I MIGHT HAVE
LOST MY DAUGHTER TONIGHT.

LILA: DON'T GO.
CARLY: HAVE YOU BEEN WAITING?
LILA: YES.
CARLY: I CAN ONLY IMAGINE
WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.
CARLY: YOU'VE BEEN SO PATIENT
AND KIND AND GENEROUS WITH ME
AND I'VE HURT
PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE.
I HAD A CHANCE TO MAKE SOMETHING
OF MY LIFE AND I THREW IT ALL
TO HELL, I GUESS, HUH?
PROBABLY WISH I'D NEVER COME
INTO THIS HOUSE.
DOES THAT ABOUT SUM IT UP?
LILA: NO.
I'D LIKE AN HONEST ANSWER
TO A SIMPLE QUESTION --
ARE YOU CARRYING JASON'S CHILD?
CARLY: I WISH I WAS.
NO.
THE BABY'S SONNY'S.
LILA: OH.
CARLY: NO SILVER LINING HERE,
HUH, EXCEPT, YOU KNOW,
THAT A BABY'S GOING TO BE BORN
AND I'M GOING TO LOVE IT -- HIM
OR HER.
I ALREADY DO.
AND MICHAEL WILL LOVE
HIS BROTHER OR SISTER.
AS FAR AS, YOU KNOW, WHAT ARE
MY PLANS, I MEAN, I DON'T --
DON'T REALLY HAVE ANY.
I DON'T KNOW.
BUT I NEED TO FIND SOME SORT
OF A LIFE THAT WORKS FOR BOTH
OF MY KIDS, YOU KNOW?
LILA: NOW'S YOUR CHANCE.
A.J.: ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
DO YOU NEED ANYTHING?
LILA: NO THANK YOU, DEAR.
A.J.: OK.
THE ALLEY CAT FINALLY WANDERS
HOME.
CARLY: THIS ISN'T MY HOME.
ACTUALLY, I'M GOING
TO BED, SO --
A.J.: "THIS ISN'T MY HOME.
I'M GOING TO BED."
SORT OF THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE,
ISN'T IT?
CARLY: I'M REALLY WAY TOO
TIRED FOR THIS, A.J.
A.J.: TOO BAD.
WE -- WE HAVE SOME THINGS
TO RESOLVE.
CARLY: DON'T YOU THINK IT'S
A LITTLE LATE FOR THAT?
A.J.: SO WHAT'S YOUR
SOLUTION -- WHAT, SLEEP UNTIL
THE BABY COMES?
CARLY: WHAT DO YOU CARE?
A.J.: ABOUT YOU?
NOTHING.
BUT I DO CARE ABOUT MY SON.
CARLY: WELL, MICHAEL WILL BE
FINE.
TRUST ME.
A.J.: TRUST YOU?
CARLY: YEAH.
A.J.: HA! THAT'S COMEDY.
THAT'S --
CARLY: WHAT DO YOU WANT ME
TO SAY, A.J.?
A.J.: I DON'T WANT YOU TO SAY
ANYTHING.
JUST SHUT UP AND LISTEN.
CARLY: NO, I'M NOT GOING
TO SHUT UP.
I'LL SAVE YOU THE TROUBLE.
I'M A TRAMP.
SCUM, DREDGES OF THE EARTH.
I MEAN, I DID BRING, YOU KNOW,
SHAME TO YOUR SPOTLESS FAMILY
NAME.
DOT WORRY.
CHEER UP.
I'LL BE OUT OF HERE SOON,
MICHAEL AND I.
A.J.: THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE
WRONG.
CARLY: I'VE GOT TWO KIDS
TO THINK ABOUT AND ONE OF THEM'S
SONNY'S, SO I'M LEAVING, OK?
A.J.: NO, IT'S NOT OK.
YOU SEE, THE CHOICE ISN'T YOURS,
CARLY.
IT'S MINE.

CARLY: SURE YOU WERE LOOKING
FORWARD TO THROWING ME OUT
OF YOUR HOUSE.
SORRY TO STEAL YOUR THUNDER.
A.J.: MICHAEL STAYS.
CARLY: I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE,
A.J., BUT I'LL SAY IT AGAIN
FOR YOU -- YOU'RE NEVER GOING
TO TAKE MY SON FROM ME.
DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY WAYS
YOU TRY.
A.J.: YOU STILL TALK A MEAN
GAME.
BUT YOU AND I BOTH KNOW YOU'RE
BLUFFING, CARLY.
YOU'RE FRESH OUT OF ACES, BABY.
JASON'S GONE.
YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN.
CARLY: I'LL MANAGE.
A.J.: MANAGING ISN'T GOOD
ENOUGH FOR MY SON.
CARLY: FINE.
WHY DON'T YOU MAKE IT EASY
ON ME, THEN?
SHOWER ME WITH CHILD SUPPORT.
MONICA: WAKE UP, CARLY.
THE PARTY IS OVER.
NO MORE PAMPERING.
NO MORE LIMITLESS CREDIT CARDS
AND AFTERNOONS AT THE SPA.
YOU KNOW, I'VE ALWAYS FELT
YOU BELONGED IN A TRAILER.
WHY DON'T YOU GO OUT AND FIND
ONE, HMM?
WHY AREN'T YOU PACKED?
I'M SURE YOU'RE GOING TO TRAVEL
LIGHT.
I MEAN, NO BIRTH CONTROL PILLS.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST GET
YOUR CARLY BABE RAGS AND BEAT
IT, OK?
CARLY: WHY DO YOU SAY THAT
LIKE IT'S SOME SORT
OF A PUNISHMENT?
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I CAN'T
WAIT TO GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE?
MONICA: WELL, WHAT IS
KEEPING YOU?
CARLY: NOTHING IS KEEPING ME,
AND YOU'LL EAT MY DUST,
LADY, AS SOON AS I MAKE
ARRANGEMENTS FOR MICHAEL.
MONICA: OH, NO, NO, NO, NO.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE MAKING
ANY ARRANGEMENTS WITH MICHAEL,
EXCEPT MAYBE FOR A SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND THAT'S IF WE ALLOW
VISITATION WHICH, AT THIS POINT,
I FRANKLY DOUBT.
CARLY: YOU KNOW WHAT?
THAT'S NOT YOUR CALL TO MAKE.
MONICA: IT'S THE END
OF THE LINE, CARLY.
THE GRAVY TRAIN STOPS HERE.
ALAN: MONICA, THIS ISN'T
OUR BATTLE.
A.J.: THAT'S RIGHT. IT ISN'T.
I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
MONICA: WELL, YOU MAKE
HER GO.
ALAN: WE NEED TO STAY OUT
OF THIS.
CARLY: THANK YOU.
ALAN: IF YOU THINK I'M
ON YOUR SIDE, YOU'RE SADLY
MISTAKEN.

BOBBIE: CARLY THINKS
I BETRAYED HER.
ROY: SHE'LL GET PAST IT.
BOBBIE: WHAT MAKES
YOU SO SURE?
ROY: WELL, DEEP DOWN,
SHE KNOWS YOU LOVE HER.
AND BESIDES, SHE'LL HAVE NOWHERE
ELSE TO TURN.
BOBBIE: HMM.
BUT YOU DIDN'T SEE HER,
THE FURY.
ROY: WELL, I'VE SEEN FURY.
YOU WANT A PRETZEL?
THE BOTTOM LINE IS YOU ARE ONE
BRIDGE CARLY WILL NEVER BURN.

HANNAH: YOU'RE GOING TO HATE
THIS.
TAGGERT: OH, IT CAN'T BE ANY
WORSE THAN THESE WINGS.
OH.
HANNAH: SERIOUSLY,
THOUGH, YOU'RE GOING TO SAY THAT
I LET SONNY WIN, AND IT'S NOT
ABOUT SONNY, NOT COMPLETELY.
TAGGERT: WHAT, ARE
YOU LEAVING TOWN OR SOMETHING?
HANNAH: NO, NO.
I'M THINKING ABOUT
LEAVING THE BUREAU.
TAGGERT: WHY?
HANNAH: IT'S NOT WHAT
I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE.
TAGGERT: YEAH, BUT WHAT JOB
EVER IS?
HANNAH: WELL, THAT'S TRUE,
BUT BEING AN F.B.I. AGENT,
IT'S -- I DON'T KNOW IF IT WORKS
FOR ME.
YOU KNOW, I WANT TO BE WHO I AM.
I WANT TO SAY WHAT I THINK.
I WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH PEOPLE
BECAUSE I LIKE THEM.
I'M SICK AND TIRED OF FAKE JOBS,
PHONY COVER STORIES.
I'M SICK OF SPYING ON PEOPLE.
DOES -- DOES THAT MAKE ME
A QUITTER?
TAGGERT: NO.
IT MAKES YOU SOMEBODY WHO WANTS
TO FIND HERSELF AND HAS
THE COURAGE TO GO WHERE THAT
LEADS HER.
HANNAH: SO THAT'S A GOOD
THING.
RIGHT?
TAGGERT: RIGHT, TO A POINT.

MIKE: LOOK, I KNOW THAT --
THAT NOTHING THAT I SAY IS GOING
TO STOP YOU, BUT HAVE
YOU CONSIDERED YOUR CHILD?
I MEAN, GUILT AND REMORSE
AND SELF-LOATHING, THAT --
THAT'S A DARK PLACE TO BRING UP
A BABY.
SONNY: NO WAY WILL I LAY SOME
NEGATIVE TRIP ON MY OWN KID'S
HEAD.
BEEN THERE.
HAD THAT.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
SONNY: WHAT?
JOHNNY: HE SAYS HE NEEDS
TO SEE YOU.
EDWARD: I'LL TAKE IT
FROM HERE.
YOU'RE EXCUSED.
MIKE: ARE YOU -- ARE
YOU PLANNING ON DISMISSING ME,
TOO, EDWARD?
EDWARD: WELL, I SHOULD THINK
THAT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES,
YOU MIGHT HAVE THE GOOD GRACES
TO LEAVE.
YOU ARE AWARE OF THE
CIRCUMSTANCES.
MIKE: WELL, -- I DIDN'T
HEAR ANYBODY INVITE YOU TO STAY.
EDWARD: OH.
WELL, THEN, WE'LL HAVE
A CONFERENCE, JUST WHAT WE NEED.
WHY DON'T YOU SUMMON THE REST
OF YOUR MINIONS AND THEY CAN ALL
WEIGH IN?
SONNY: JOHNNY, IT'S ALL
RIGHT.
EDWARD: DO YOU KNOW THAT THAT
GOON ACTUALLY FRISKED ME?
SONNY: REALLY?
EDWARD AND I GOT TO TAKE CARE
OF SOME THINGS.
MIKE: ALL RIGHT.
OK. I'LL START DINNER THEN.
SONNY: NO, YOU KNOW WHAT?
NOT TONIGHT.
I -- I APPRECIATE IT, BUT
I'LL CHECK IN WITH YOU LATER.
MIKE: OK.
SONNY: ALL RIGHT?
MIKE: I'LL CALL YOU.
SONNY: ALL RIGHT.
SONNY: SO, YOU GOT SOMETHING
TO SAY THAT I HAVEN'T HEARD YET?
EDWARD: AN OFFER YOU CAN'T
REFUSE.
OH, YOU CAN.
BUT YOU WON'T IF YOU GIVE A DAMN
ABOUT YOUR UNBORN CHILD.

JUAN: WHAT HAPPENED?
EMILY: IT'S A LONG STORY.
JUAN: WELL, I GUESS THAT
WOULD EXPLAIN WHY I GOT
STOOD UP.
EMILY: OH.
OH, JUAN, I'M SO SORRY.
I -- ICE SKATING.
I FORGOT.
JUAN: WELL, NO PRESSURE,
BUT THIS BETTER BE A GOOD
EXCUSE.
EMILY: SONNY'S BEEN SLEEPING
WITH CARLY.
AND NOW SHE'S PREGNANT
AND THE BABY IS HIS.
JUAN: ARE YOU SURE OF THIS?
EMILY: SONNY ADMITTED IT, OK?
JUAN: DID HE GIVE ANY KIND
OF EXPLANATION?
EMILY: WHAT KIND
OF EXPLANATION COULD THERE
POSSIBLY BE?
JUAN: I DON'T KNOW,
BUT, YOU KNOW, THERE'S ALWAYS
TWO SIDES TO A STORY.
EMILY: FINE.
TAKE HIS SIDE.
I KNEW YOU WOULD.
TAMMY: OK.
DOUBLE ORDER OF OYSTER STEW
PIPING HOT, LOADED WITH CREAM.
THAT USUALLY GETS A SMILE OUT
OF YOU.
YOU HAVING A ROUGH DAY?
TONY: UM -- YOU KNOW,
ROUGH TWO YEARS.
TAMMY: YEAH, BUT YOU'RE BACK
ON TRACK NOW, RIGHT?
TONY: YEAH, I'M BACK
ON SOMEBODY'S TRACK, JUST NOT
MINE.
I -- I USED TO BE A
NEUROSURGEON, YOU KNOW, A PRETTY
GOOD ONE AND -- AND NOW I ADVISE
OTHER SURGEONS.
I WANT MY CAREER BACK.
JUAN: YOU MISS JASON A LOT.
I KNOW THIS.
AND CARLY, YOU'VE NEVER REALLY
LIKED.
BUT SONNY, I MEAN, HE'S
ALWAYS --
EMILY: WHAT, A REAL
TERRIFIC GUY?
WHAT, HE'S A REAL STANDUP,
TRUE-BLUE FRIEND?
SAVE IT, JUAN.
JUST SAVE IT.
JUAN: WHAT IS THIS REALLY
ABOUT?

ALEXIS: HI.
NED: HI.
HEY, HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT
DINNER?
ALEXIS: YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT REALLY VERY HUNGRY
RIGHT NOW.
NED: BAD NEWS FROM JAX?
ALEXIS: NO -- ACTUALLY,
NO NEWS FROM CHLOE.
MY BROTHER CAME BY.
NED: YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU REFER
TO STEFAN AS YOUR BROTHER,
I JUST HAVE A FEELING THAT HE'S
PULLING YOU BACK IN.
ALEXIS: HE WANTS ME
TO HELP HIM.
NED: OF COURSE HE DOES.
WHY ELSE WOULD HE TUG AT THE OLD
FAMILIAL STRINGS?
ALEXIS: I TOLD HIM THAT
I WOULD.
NED: BUT YOU CAN BACK OUT.
JUST TELL HIM THAT YOU HAD
SECOND THOUGHTS.
ALEXIS: I COULD.
NED: BUT YOU WON'T
BECAUSE YOU PROMISED.
ALEXIS: NO, BECAUSE I HAVE
A PERSONAL STAKE IN HOW THIS
PLAYS OUT.
NED: BE CAREFUL.
ALEXIS: I KNOW.
NED: AND DON'T EXPECT IT
TO BE DIFFERENT BECAUSE YOU KNOW
IT WON'T.
IT'S THE SAME OLD PATTERN PLAYED
OUT OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
AND I KNOW BECAUSE I SPEAK
FROM EXPERIENCE.
ALEXIS: I UNDERSTAND.
I DO.
NED: DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILIES
CAN BE VERY COMPELLING, BUT JUST
DO ME A FAVOR, WILL YOU?
WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF SINKING
INTO THE CASSADINE MADNESS,
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE SEND
AN S.O.S.?
ALEXIS: I WILL.
NOW WILL YOU DO ME A FAVOR
AND CALL AND SEE HOW CHLOE'S
DOING?
THANKS.

TONY: DID YOU HEAR ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED WITH CHLOE ASHTON?
TAMMY: OH, BOBBIE'S BEEN
MENTIONING IT, YEAH -- OOH.
TONY: WELL, THEY ASKED ME
TO BE IN THE O.R. -- YOU KNOW,
AS A STAND-IN FOR ADVICE,
THAT KIND OF THING.
IT WAS THE MOST FRUSTRATING
THING THAT I'VE EVER DONE
IN MY LIFE.
I MEAN, EVERY MOVE OF CHLOE'S
SURGEON'S HANDS, I COULD
LITERALLY FEEL IT IN MY FINGERS.
TAMMY: SO WHAT WOULD IT TAKE
TO GET YOU BACK INTO ACTION?
TONY: SHORT OF A MIRACLE,
I DON'T KNOW.
YOU KNOW -- SURGERY,
PHYSICAL REHABILITATION,
A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF PURE LUCK.
TAMMY: WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO
FOR IT?
TONY: MAYBE I DON'T FEEL
LUCKY ENOUGH.
OR MAYBE I DON'T WANT
TO PUSH MY LUCK OR
MAYBE I DON'T WANT TO FACE
THE DISAPPOINTMENT IF IT DIDN'T
WORK OUT, YOU KNOW.
I'VE HAD A FEW DISAPPOINTMENTS
LATELY.
TAMMY: YOU KNOW, IF YOU DON'T
TAKE A SWING, YOU'RE NEVER GOING
TO HIT THE BALL.
WAIT, WAIT, WAIT -- I HAD
AN UNCLE WHO USED TO SAY THAT
ALL THE TIME.
I MEAN, REALLY, TONY.
WORST-CASE SCENARIO, YOU'LL BE
RIGHT BACK WHERE YOU ARE NOW.
SO, WHAT DO YOU GOT TO LOSE?
HMM?

EMILY: I'M SORRY, JUAN.
I -- I LOST IT.
DON'T KNOW WHY.
JUAN: WELL, THINK ABOUT IT
BECAUSE THERE IS SOMETHING GOING
ON AND I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW
WHAT IT IS.
EMILY: WELL, I ALREADY TOLD
YOU THAT.
JUAN: SONNY AND CARLY.
ARE YOU SURE THAT'S ALL IT IS?
EMILY: JASON'S GIRLFRIEND
SLEPT WITH HIS BEST FRIEND.
THAT'S NOT BAD ENOUGH?
JUAN: SHE WASN'T EXACTLY
HIS GIRLFRIEND.
I MEAN, TECHNICALLY,
SHE'S A.J.'S WIFE.
EMILY: SO IT'S NOT CHEATING
UNLESS YOU'RE MARRIED?
JUAN, PLEASE CLEAR UP THE RULES
FOR ME HERE BECAUSE IF YOU EVER
CHEAT ON ME, I THINK THAT I'M
GOING TO DIE.
JUAN: I PROMISE YOU
THAT WON'T HAPPEN.
NEVER -- NEVER IN THIS LIFE.
HANNAH: WELL, WHAT ARE
YOU WORRIED ABOUT, THAT I'M
GOING TO CHUCK MY SUITS AND END
UP IN A COMMUNE SOMEWHERE?
TAGGERT: YOU'RE A COUPLE
DECADES LATE FOR THAT.
HANNAH: OK, WHERE, A CONVENT?
TAGGERT: YEAH, RIGHT.
HANNAH: OK, WHATEVER.
SERIOUSLY, THOUGH.
WHAT'S THE WORST THAT COULD
HAPPEN?
TAGGERT: WORST THING IS --
WORST-CASE IS YOU COULD END UP
TRASHING YOUR CAREER
BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GET BACK
WITH SONNY.
BEST-CASE SCENARIO, YOU END UP
WITH NOTHING.
WORST-CASE, YOU END UP WITH HIM.
IF I WAS YOU, I'D TAKE A LITTLE
MORE TIME, THINK ABOUT IT.

ROY: MY GUESS IS THAT CARLY
AND MICHAEL WILL WIND UP
AT YOUR FRONT DOOR.
BOBBIE: WELL, I HOPE YOU'RE
RIGHT BECAUSE LUCAS WOULD LOVE
THAT, AND FRANKLY, SO WOULD I,
BUT CARLY WAS SO ANGRY.
ROY: WHERE ELSE IS SHE GOING
TO GO?
IT'S NOT LIKE SHE AND SONNY ARE
A COUPLE OR ANYTHING.
BOBBIE: HMM.
THANK GOD FOR THAT.
ROY: AREN'T YOU THE ONE WHO'S
ALWAYS SAYING HOW PROTECTIVE
SONNY CAN BE?
I THOUGHT YOU LIKED THE GUY.
BOBBIE: WELL, I DO,
BUT SONNY'S LIFESTYLE IS MUCH
TOO DANGEROUS FOR A WOMAN
WITH KIDS.
EDWARD: I HAVE NO DESIRE
TO HAVE THE QUARTERMAINE NAME
ASSOCIATED WITH YOURS.
NOR DO I WANT MY GRANDSON
TO SUFFER THE HUMILIATION
OF HAVING EVERYONE KNOW THAT
HIS WIFE IS CARRYING YOUR CHILD.
NOW, IN TERMS OF THE CHILD,
YOU -- YOU HAVE A CHOICE.
A PRIVATE NANNY
OR A PERSONAL BODYGUARD.
SONNY: UH-HUH.
EDWARD: A SPRAWLING ESTATE
WITH GRASS AND TREES
OR A BULLETPROOF FORTRESS,
FREQUENTLY UNDER SIEGE.
NOW, THE QUARTERMAINE NAME CAN
OPEN MANY DOORS.
AND WE WILL RAISE CARLY'S BABY
AS OUR OWN WITH ALL
THE ATTENDANT PERKS
AND PRIVILEGES.
SONNY: MM-HMM.
EDWARD: SO WHAT DO YOU SAY?
SONNY: UM --
GO TO HELL.

ALAN: WHEN A.J. BROUGHT
YOU INTO THIS HOUSE,
OUR EXPECTATIONS WERE LOW.
YOUR TRACK RECORD MADE IT
PERFECTLY CLEAR THAT OUR SON
WASN'T GETTING VERY MUCH.
CARLY: NOT UP TO
YOUR NORMALLY HIGH STANDARDS?
ALAN: NOT EVEN CLOSE.
BUT WE PRAYED FOR THE BEST
AND BRACED OURSELVES.
BUT YOU HAVE EXCEEDED OUR LOWEST
EXPECTATIONS.
YOU GIVE NEW MEANING
TO THE PHRASE
"BOTTOM OF THE PIT."
CARLY: WHY DON'T YOU GIVE ME
A BREAK, ALAN?
WHAT, ARE YOU A PARAGON
OF VIRTUE?
AT LEAST I'M NOT A DRUG ADDICT.
MONICA: YOU LITTLE WITCH!
CARLY: WHAT?
I'VE NEVER BEEN SUED FOR SEXUAL
HARASSMENT AND I DON'T HAVE SOME
SECRET LITTLE FAMILY SOMEWHERE.
MONICA: THAT'S RIGHT,
CARLY, YOU DON'T HAVE A SECRET
FAMILY.
YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE A FAMILY
BECAUSE MICHAEL IS STAYING HERE.
CARLY: OVER MY DEAD BODY.
ALAN: WHATEVER WORKS.
MONICA: YOU ARE NOT USING
THAT CHILD AS A MEAL TICKET.
A.J.: PLEASE, YOU'RE NOT
HELPING.
LOOK, I WANT TO -- I WANT TO DO
THIS ALONE.
ALAN: LET HIM HANDLE IT
HIS WAY.
MONICA: AS LONG AS IT'S
HANDLED NOW.
CARLY: WELL, THAT WAS FUN,
WASN'T IT?
BUT IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'M GOING
TO SKIP THE REST OF THE SHOW.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, YOU KNOW --
EVEN IF YOU DO MIND.
A.J.: YOU CAN STAY.

NED: NO NEWS ON CHLOE.
JAX IS WITH HER.
SHE'S STILL ASLEEP.
ALEXIS: GOD, THE THOUGHT
OF WAKING UP AND NOT SEEING
ANYTHING IS -- IT MUST BE
TERRIFYING.
NED: CHLOE'S NOT
THE ONLY ONE.
ALEXIS: JAX?
I KNOW. WELL --
NED: I'M REFERRING TO MYSELF,
AND MY OWN SELFISH DESIRE
TO KEEP YOU ALIVE.
ALEXIS: LOOK, WHAT STEFAN IS
ASKING ME TO DO -- THERE'S
REALLY NO DANGER INVOLVED,
HONEST.
NED: REALLY?
SO THIHAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH HELENA?
THE WOMAN WANTS YOU DEAD,
ALEXIS.
IF YOU HADN'T LOANED CHLOE THAT
COAT THAT NIGHT --
ALEXIS: I KNOW.
I'LL BE ALL RIGHT.
I WILL. TRUST ME.
PLEASE? OK?
NED: I CAN'T LOSE YOU.
ALEXIS: YOU WON'T LOSE ME.
PROMISE.

ROY: OH.
BOBBIE: SO YOU WANT TO SEE
MY FACE FLUSH, HUH?
ROY: WHAT?
BOBBIE: DON'T YOU REMEMBER
THAT NIGHT AT THE CAMPUS DISCO
WHEN YOU ACCUSED ME OF PILFERING
WINE?
ROY: PILFERING?
UH -- YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
I SAID SOMETHING ABOUT
YOUR CHEEKS ONLY FLUSHED WHEN
YOU DRANK CHARDONNAY.
BOBBIE: MM-HMM.
ROY: YEAH, WELL, I WAS WRONG
ABOUT THAT.
I WAS WRONG ABOUT A LOT
OF THINGS.
BOBBIE: YEAH.
WELL, SO WERE WE ALL
WRONG ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS.
I'VE CHANGED.
ROY: NOT TO LOOK AT YOU.
BOBBIE: INSIDE, I MEAN.
ROY: HOW SO?
BOBBIE: YOU NEVER TOLD ME
ANYTHING.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS NORMAL
FOR THE MAN TO GO OUT AND DO ALL
KINDS OF DANGEROUS THINGS
AND FOR THE WOMAN TO BLINDLY
TRUST HIM.
ROY: SO WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
BOBBIE: YOU TOLD ME
EVERYTHING WOULD BE OK.
AND I TOOK YOUR WORD ON FAITH.
WELL, THAT KIND OF FAITH I DON'T
HAVE ANYMORE
BECAUSE I'M A MOTHER.
I CAN'T AFFORD IT.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
ROY: WHAT BROUGHT THIS ON?
BOBBIE: CARLY, I GUESS.
SONNY'S BABY.
THE THOUGHT OF A CHILD IN THAT
LIFESTYLE.
I DON'T WANT THAT FOR CARLY'S
CHILD.
AND I WOULDN'T WANT IT FOR MINE.

SONNY: SO HE'D END UP WHERE,
IN SOME MILITARY SCHOOL?
"LET'S KEEP THE CORINTHOS KID
OUT OF SIGHT, IN SOME TINY,
DARK ROOM BEHIND A PANTRY GOOD
ENOUGH FOR THE LITTLE
BLACK SHEEP?"
EDWARD: YOU KNOW, YOU SOUND
LIKE -- AND I KNOW THIS IS
UNLIKELY, BUT YOU SOUND LIKE
A MAN WHO HAS READ TOO MUCH
DICKENS.
SONNY: WELL, I'M SURE READING
YOU RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOU'RE
RUNNING SCARED.
IF CARLY WALKS OUT, THAT MEANS
THAT I COULD END UP RAISING
THE QUARTERMAINE HEIR.
EDWARD: OH, DON'T BE ABSURD.
SONNY: OH, NO, NO.
THAT'S NOT ABSURD.
THAT'S, YOU KNOW --
IF CARLY GOES, SO DOES MICHAEL.
EDWARD: WELL, SHE CERTAINLY
WOULDN'T BRING HIM TO YOU.
NOW, CARLY MAY BE OVERSEXED
AND SHE USES VERY BAD JUDGMENT,
BUT DEEP DOWN, SHE IS A VERY
PRACTICAL GIRL.
SONNY: TIME FOR YOU TO GO.
EDWARD: AND WHAT'S MORE,
SHE ISN'T EVEN FOND OF YOU.
SO YOU -- YOU SEE, YOU -- YOU'RE
HOLDING NO CHIPS AT ALL.
PLAY IT SMART, CORINTHOS.
TAKE MY OFFER.
SONNY: BYE.
EDWARD: PUT YOUR CHILD'S
INTERESTS ABOVE YOUR OWN.

A.J.: AND WHAT ARE YOU GOING
TO DO FOR MONEY?
ALIMONY?
YOU CAN FORGET ABOUT THAT.
AND IT TAKES A LOT OF MONEY
TO WAGE A CUSTODY WAR,
NOT TO MENTION TWO.
CARLY: WHAT DO YOU MEAN TWO?
A.J.: ONE FOR MICHAEL
AND THE OTHER ONE FOR SONNY'S
CHILD.
WHAT, YOU DON'T HONESTLY THINK
THAT SONNY WOULD ER GIVE UP
CONTROL OF A CHILD THAT HE COULD
CLAIM AS HIS OWN?
NOW, ON THE OTHER HAND,
IF YOU STAY HERE, YOU WILL BE
FIGHTING FROM A PLACE
OF STRENGTH.
YOU WALK OUT,
YOU'VE GOT NOTHING.
YOU'RE FREE TO GO.
IS THAT REALLY WHAT YOU WANT?
CARLY: WELL, I CAN'T RAISE
MY BABY HERE WITH, YOU KNOW,
A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO HATE IT.
A.J.: WE'RE NOT MONSTERS,
ALL RIGHT?
IN TIME, WE WILL GET ATTACHED.
CARLY: AND I'M SUPPOSED
TO JUST COUNT ON THAT?
A.J.: REALLY, WHAT CHOICE DO
YOU HAVE?
CARLY: NONE, I GUESS.
A.J.: SO YOU'LL STAY?
CARLY: LIKE YOU SAID,
WHAT CHOICE DO I HAVE?
A.J.: GOOD FOR YOU.

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

>> ON THE NEXT
"GENERAL HOSPITAL" --

LUKE: HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE
AN ECCENTRIC ENGLISH HEIRESS?
FELICIA: LIKE A MILLION
POUNDS, MY GOOD MAN.

MAC: WELL, I GUESS IT'S
PRETTY OBVIOUS -- LUKE
AND FELICIA WENT OFF TOGETHER.

TONY: JAX TAKING YOU OUT
AGAIN?

CHLOE: I'VE ASKED HIM TO TAKE
ME HOME, FOR GOOD.

WAITER: WOULD YOU LIKE
SOMETHING FROM THE BAR?
