>> Previously on "General Hospital" --
Stavros: Perhaps this will help you feel better.
Gia: It's beautiful.
Jax: Your hobbies are dangerous, Mrs. Cassadine. One day they're going to get you in a lot of trouble.
Sonny: I was with Angel the whole time.
Alexis: Stavros is dead. He can't hurt you anymore.
Nikolas: I want Elizabeth.
Helena: Take me to Lucky. What you feel for Elizabeth is simply gone.
Stefan: Tell me where you got that brooch.
Gia: What is with the pin?
Stefan: Alexis, look at this.
Alexis: Where did you get that brooch?
Gia: What difference does it make?
Stefan: Did Nikolas give it to you?
Gia: Nikolas who?
Stefan: I don't appreciate your attitude.
Gia: Ooh, then I won't sleep a wink.
Stefan: Do you have any idea what that brooch symbolizes?
Gia: That I will be taken seriously by the Cassadine's and I will not be treated like a peasant and that Gia Campbell will not be trifled with.
Alexis: Gia, we all understand that you're upset right now, but we are also concerned with the choices that Nikolas is making.
Gia: Yeah, right, like you didn't want him to dump me? Whatever.
Alexis: Gia, what we want to know is where you got that brooch.
Stefan: Don't bother. I know exactly who gave her that brooch and why.
Nikolas: So, Grandmother, did you erase Lucky's love for Elizabeth or not?
Helena: Nikolas, I don't appreciate being interrogated.
Nikolas: So then you failed once again.
Helena: Lucky does not love Elizabeth anymore.
Nikolas: Then she's mine.
Helena: You know, Laura ruined Stavros' life. Don't you allow Elizabeth to ruin yours.
Nikolas: Thank you, Grandmother. That will be all.
Elizabeth: Lucky? Lucky, wake up. It's me, Elizabeth.
Lucky: Elizabeth?
Elizabeth: Lucky, I love you.
Lucky: I don't want you. What's it going to take to get that through your head?
Edward: A murder was committed at General Hospital and you and your people don't even have a suspect.
Taggert: We're working on it.
Edward: Why haven't you arrested that Zander Smith?
Taggert: You have any evidence this time, or you just jerking our chain again?
Edward: You cannot prove that that deviant didn't mug me.
Taggert: You can't prove he killed Joseph Sorel.
Capt. Dalton: What seems to be the problem?
Taggert: It's nothing I can't handle, Sir.
Mac: Hey, Dan.
Dan: Hey. How's it going?
Mac: Good to see you.
Taggert: Mac, good to see you.
Mac: Taggert.
Capt. Dalton: What's going on here?
Edward: Well, you see, Dalton, you -- you can't seem to catch Sorel's killer.
Mac: Wait a minute.
Edward: So I found someone who can.
Sorel: How are you doing?
Angel: Go away.
Sorel: I remember the day that I bought that doll. It was snowing. Fifth Avenue looked magical. Santas on every corner.
Angel: You're dead.
Sorel: It was Christmas Eve. The store was about to close.
Angel: You can't be here.
Sorel: I'm not going anywhere. Not after what you've done.
Carly: What do you mean you were with Angel the whole time?
Sonny: She found me at Lily's grave.
Carly: Get out!
Sonny: And then she took me to her house beside the lake.
Carly: And you didn't find that to be just a little bit odd?
Sonny: Well, I was bleeding to death.
Carly: Oh, but someone named Angel just happened to be cruising the graveyard?
Sonny: Well, she took care of me.
Carly: Sonny, it was part of a scam.
Sonny: Maybe.
Carly: Sorel could've gone out to that lake house at any time.
Sonny: Yeah, so what?
Carly: And he would've found you.
Carly: You abandoned me. You -- you abandoned me and you hide out in the woods -- I don't -- you hide out in the woods with Sorel's daughter. You're only a few miles away from me. You don't even have the decency to pick up the phone and call me and let me know where you were.
Sonny: Why, so you can report me to the F.B.I.?
Carly: You know, let me just get this straight for a minute. I end up being taken hostage while I am waiting for you in our home.
Sonny: Right.
Carly: And Sorel's pushing me around. You're just running around the woods with his daughter. I could've been killed, Sonny. Michael could've been left without a mother and I am still wrong.
Sonny: I was dying. It's not about you.
Carly: Well, you know what? It should have. It should have --
Sonny: Hey!
Carly: Been about me.
Sonny: I needed peace! Some time to heal. I needed time to get -- think about my next move.
Carly: Oh, and you couldn't get that with me. Is that what you're saying?
Sonny: I'm not saying anything.
Carly: You know, you will do anything to push me away, won't you?
Sonny: Well, you pushed me away the night you turned me in.
Carly: I made a mistake, Sonny. I am not perfect and you knew that when you married me.
Sonny: Maybe I shouldn't have done that.
Carly: Why? Because I'm such a pain? Because I'm loud and I'm in the way and I actually speak my mind? It's a lot easier to deal with a little perfect Angel, isn't it? Or some little whiner like Lizzie Webber. Or Hannah the banana. Or maybe Lily?
Sonny: Lily knew how to live in this world. So does Angel.
Carly: Well, of course she does because her whole father's operation is safe as long as she's with you.
Sonny: She saved my life!
Carly: Sonny, she could've hurt you. She could've -- she --
Sonny: You know what? You know, you still don't get me at all. I knew what I was doing the whole time. I didn't trust her for two seconds. I needed to disappear, so I did!
Carly: And that first time that I showed up at that stupid lake house, when that stupid little witch ran into my car -- you were there, weren't you? Weren't you?
Sonny: That's right.
Sorel: Why are you saving these things?
Angel: I don't want you here.
Sorel: What, are you going to box me up, too?
Angel: This is my home. I bought it with my money.
Sorel: Do you think that matters? You're still my little girl. I bought you that doll and dozens of others. Angel, I gave you the best life that I could.
Angel: You killed my husband.
Sorel: He wasn't good enough for you and neither is Sonny Corinthos.
Angel: You have no control over me anymore.
Sorel: Sonny Corinthos is a married man, a man of honor. How many times have you told me that?
Angel: I will put you in the ground and then you will go away!
Sorel: Look at what you've done for a man that you'll never have.
Angel: Get out of my house! Go!
Elizabeth: Lucky, you don't mean what you're saying.
Lucky: No, no, you know what? Don't tell me what I mean and what I don't mean. What are you doing here anyway?
Elizabeth: I'm trying to help you.
Lucky: Well, I don't need your help.
Nikolas: What did you say to her?
Lucky: Wow. Look who it is -- my brother, the kidnapper. Come on in.
Elizabeth: Nikolas, why did you bring Lucky here?
Nikolas: How did you get in, Elizabeth?
Lucky: Drop the act. Come on, I know.
Nikolas: You know what?
Lucky: I know that you've been helping Elizabeth. But it's okay. It's okay because I see the whole picture now. I know the plan.
Elizabeth: Lucky, I couldn't stand to let Helena hurt you any more. Nikolas knew --
Lucky: No, Nikolas took advantage of it. And the first thing he did was give Gia the hike. And then he went crawling to psycho granny and says, "I'm yours." For the money, right? And the power? But that wasn't enough for you, so you had to have the girl, too. So he pretended to help you, Elizabeth. He pretended to help you help me. And then once he got you where he wanted you -- boom -- I disappear and you're all his. That was that.
Nikolas: You know, Lucky, I got to tell you, you are a lot smarter than I thought.
Elizabeth: No, Lucky, Nikolas really --
Nikolas: Is doing exactly what Lucky thinks I'm doing.
Lucky: Right. So why don't we just skip all the pain and suffering for once. Now, you've worked really hard and wasted a lot of time and effort, so if you want Elizabeth, she's all yours.
Jax: You, got a sec?
Jax: You're looking lovely as always, Helena.
Helena: Well, thank you, Jax. And thank you once again for your generous contribution at the auction.
Jax: I do what I can.
Helena: I do so appreciate it.
Jax: Are you enjoying the Port Charles hotel?
Helena: Oh, very much.
Jax: You don't miss the yacht?
Helena: Well, one needs a change now and then.
Jax: Yes, no point in getting tied up in the past.
Helena: Oh, I agree. Change can be so refreshing.
Jax: Well, some changes are coming your way, Helena. Some more refreshing than others.
Helena: Well, I can hardly wait.
Jax: But none of them good. But all of them thanks to me.
Gia: You can't possibly know who gave me this pin.
Stefan: Hmm. It all makes sense now.
Alexis: It does?
Stefan: May I see it? I need to authenticate it. I'll return it.
Stefan: It's the letter of the Greek alphabet xi. Mm-hmm.
Gia: So? The Cassadines aren't the only people on the planet who know a little Greek. You think I stole this pin from the auction, don't you? That's why you're so upset.
Stefan: No. My mother probably gave it to you.
Gia: All you need to know is that by the time I am done with your family, I will have anything marked Cassadine that I want.
Nikolas: Elizabeth, you shouldn't be here.
Lucky: Yeah, he's right.
Elizabeth: I am not giving up on you.
Lucky: I was afraid of that.
Nikolas: Come with me.
Lucky: That's the best idea I've heard all day long.
Elizabeth: No.
Nikolas: We have a lot to discuss.
Lucky: That's fine by me. Just leave me out of it.
Nikolas: Not to worry.
Lucky: Not to worry. Some class act. You know that?
Elizabeth: Nikolas, I need a moment alone with Lucky.
Lucky: No, why don't you just get out of here?
Nikolas: When she's ready, she will, all right?
Lucky: First you kidnap me. Now you want to torture me?
Nikolas: I'll tell you what -- I'll be right outside.
Lucky: You know what? Or you guys could both leave. How about that?
Nikolas: Oh, God.
Elizabeth: Lucky, listen to me. We have always loved each other.
Lucky: Why do you keep saying that?
Elizabeth: Because it's true and you know it in your heart.
Lucky: No. Don't tell me what I know in my heart.
Elizabeth: No, you're just confused, and it's because of Helena.
Lucky: Oh, don't blame Helena just because I don't love you anymore.
Elizabeth: Maybe it's not too late.
Lucky: Oh, so what are -- are you going to tell me that Helena did something to my mind?
Elizabeth: She did, Lucky. I watched her.
Lucky: You know what? I know what I feel and what I don't.
Elizabeth: And you're certain that it has absolutely nothing to do with Helena?
Lucky: I haven't seen Helena in ages.
Elizabeth: Then prove it. You say you don't love me? Tell me why.
Mac: Mayor McClintock's office called me in for a meeting on the Sorel murder.
Capt. Dalton: Nobody told me about a meeting.
Edward: That's because your office has made such a complete mess of the investigation.
Capt. Dalton: Sorel's body was just released from the crime scene 10 minutes ago.
Edward: That body has been lying dead in General Hospital all this time? Can you believe the level of incompetence? God.
Mac: Tell the mayor I stopped by.
Capt. Dalton: You set this whole thing up, huh?
Edward: Why would I do that?
Taggert: We need you, Mac.
Mac: Half of this department is in Sonny's pocket. The rest are caught up in politics, Taggert, except for you.
Taggert: Thank you, but, look, Mac, the mayor's in way over his head, Dalton's an idiot, and now that Grandpa Quartermaine’s involved --
Mac: They're looking for a yes man. I'm not that guy.
Angel: I need to claim my father's body.
Dan: Capt. Dalton can help you with that.
Angel: Thank you.
Taggert: Are you sure you want to walk away from this? The Sorel hit could be the best chance we get to nail Sonny.
Carly: What is it with this woman Angel, anyway, hmm? Her real name is probably Shirley or something. What'd she do when I showed up? She lock you in a little room?
Sonny: Actually, I could've left any time I wanted.
Carly: Oh, but instead you watched me and you saw how worried I was and how afraid.
Sonny: Yep.
Carly: And you did nothing. Okay, so what now, hmm?
Carly: You're going to devote your whole life to Angel while she is ripping yours apart?
Sonny: Angel is beside the point, Carly.
Carly: You know what? I am never going to be like Lily, okay? I'm not going to be quiet and submissive and stay in the background because I can't.
Sonny: I realize that!
Carly: Oh, what, and Angel can?
Sonny: Angel has nothing to do with us.
Carly: You're damn straight.
Sonny: You and I -- we're finished. You betrayed me, remember?
Carly: Oh, Sonny, get over it.
Sonny: No, you get over it!
[Phone rings]
Sonny: Yeah.
Angel: I'm at the police department.
Sonny: What happened?
Angel: They're coming after you.
Sonny: All right. Don't worry about me. You -- you take care of yourself.
Carly: It's her, isn't it?
Sonny: No, no, it's -- thanks for letting me know.
Carly: Hey, hey, Angel -- how's the old man?
Angel: I shouldn't have called.
Carly: Oh, tell your daddy I say hi, will you? Stay away from my husband!
Sonny: Will you listen to yourself?
Carly: The woman is no good. I picked out Hannah the moment she arrived in town and I pegged her as the little slut she was and I was right. And I am right about your new little slut of the moment, Angel.
Sonny: How many times do I have to tell you? Angel has nothing to do with this.
Carly: What, you think I can't take care of Joseph Sorel's little slut of a daughter?
Sonny: You've already done enough damage, Carly.
Carly: What, you think that you can just shut me out and you can make me pay for one mistake for the rest of my life? You think that I'm just going to walk away because you took off your wedding ring? Oh, did you think that I wasn't going to notice?
Sonny: Okay. We're done. You need to understand that.
Carly: What'd you do, throw it in the lake?
Sonny: No, actually, I put it in this drawer. You want to see it? Huh?
Carly: Yeah.
Sonny: Okay. I think it's in here somewhere. Oh, there it is. Yeah, it's right here. Look.
Carly: So why did you take it off?
Sonny: You know why.
Carly: Sonny, you said for better or for worse and until death do us part. I didn't die. Although Sorel did give it a good shot.
Sonny: You broke our vows. You dishonored me. I can't deal with that.
Carly: And you think -- hmm -- you think you can punish me for the rest of my life?
Sonny: Well --
Carly: You --
Sonny: What?
Carly: You think you can punish me for the rest of my life and that you -- I -- you don't get to do that to me, Sonny. You don't. Because that wedding ring matters, no matter what you think. You can't just -- you can't just wipe it off your hands because you take it -- you know what? It matters. Sonny, it matters. That ring matters.
Sonny: What matters?
Carly: It matters!
Sonny: No, it doesn't matter! There it is, right there. Look at it. It's done.
Stefan: You plan to sue the Cassadines?
Gia: That's right.
Alexis: On what grounds?
Gia: Lost wages, palimony.
Alexis: Gia, you were only involved for a few months.
Gia: Nikolas cost me a major job and I have a roomful of witnesses to back me up.
Stefan: You know the whole idea is absurd.
Gia: I gave him my life.
Alexis: That's never a good idea.
Gia: Well, he walked away, so I expect compensation.
Stefan: Shouldn't you be trying to help Nikolas?
Gia: Why?
Alexis: Who's your attorney?
Gia: Now, why would I tell you that? But you will be hearing from us very soon.
Stefan: Our family has far more important concerns.
Gia: You Cassadines can't tell the difference between people and material things, but I'll bet a jury can.
Alexis: Gia may be on to something.
Stefan: Let the attorneys handle it.
Alexis: About the pin. You know that Helena is behind this. She's trying to make you miserable. One more way to make you miserable and you're buying into it.
Stefan: Perhaps. You know, it was Stavros who insisted the letter xi be the symbol for Cassadine Island. You know that. Now, how did Gia Campbell get a hold of that pin?
Alexis: I'm sure Helena dug it up somewhere when she was looking for all those things to auction off and gave it to her.
Stefan: Possibly.
Alexis: She is trying to distract the two of us from helping Nikolas. She is doing that with me by messing around with my mother's necklace and she's doing it to you by tormenting you with Stavros' memories.
Stefan: Well, whatever's going on, I will find out.
Stavros: You will, brother. Very, very soon, you will.
Jax: One way or the other.
Helena: Would you care for a glass of port?
Jax: Do you spend much time on the internet, Helena?
Helena: As little as possible, I'm afraid.
Jax: Well, next time you log on --
Helena: That's an odd turn of phrase, isn't it?
Jax: I suggest you do a search for the Cassadine holdings in Southeast Asia.
Helena: Now, why would I do that?
Jax: I left you one rice plantation for now. The rest of the companies I raided before breakfast this morning.
Helena: I always suspected you were a morning person.
Jax: Once corporations begin to collapse -- are you familiar with the domino effect?
Helena: Now, why are we discussing business? I can think of many more enjoyable ways to spend an afternoon.
Jax: By this evening, most of your Far East holdings will be on shaky ground.
Helena: Oh, please tell me that this is not retribution for Chloe. Not that I harmed one hair on her pretty little head.
Jax: You've never been very kind to Alexis.
Helena: You know, I could never understand why you bother with that little mouse.
Jax: You're planning to hurt her again. I want to know how.
Helena: Now, why would I hurt Alexis?
Jax: Aren't we past denials? If you want to enjoy our time together, you'll tell me what I want to know.
Lucky: How many times do I have to say this, Elizabeth? I don't love you. I don't know why I ever did.
Elizabeth: Well, what about that time under the docks when we were living on the streets and you stayed up all night?
Lucky: Must've been some other guy.
Elizabeth: Okay, the boxcar. Remember? I painted those murals and you put up all of my pictures.
Lucky: Even if I did, what does it matter now?
Elizabeth: White roses. The church in the snow. Valentine's Day, Lucky.
Lucky: You're not making any sense.
Elizabeth: What does that light remind you of?
Lucky: Not you, if that's what you mean.
Elizabeth: Maybe jewels? Perhaps diamonds?
Lucky: Oh, you want diamonds? Nikolas is your man for diamonds.
Elizabeth: Lucky, do you remember -- do you remember a huge diamond and staring into it?
Lucky: If will you go?
Elizabeth: Lucky, please, don't let Helena do this.
Lucky: Will you stop clinging on to me for a second?
Elizabeth: We have survived her once before.
Lucky: You know what? Go be with Nikolas, okay? Go be happy with him, be miserable with him. Do whatever you want. Just leave me out of it, okay?
Elizabeth: Wait, you can't go out there.
Lucky: Why?
Elizabeth: It's not safe. You know what? I'm going to go. I'm going to go and I won't come back, okay?
Lucky: You know, I got a better idea. How about I go have fun for a change and you can stay or do whatever you want, okay?
Elizabeth: No, no, no. Lucky, wait, please.
Nikolas: You're not going anywhere.
Lucky: All right. All right, I know when I'm beat, I guess.
Elizabeth: Nikolas --
Nikolas: I'm sick of taking punches! Go get ready.
Nikolas: Elizabeth, Lucky just -- he just cannot disappear.
Elizabeth: Luke taught him how years ago.
Nikolas: All right, well, you know what? Let's just split up and we'll meet back --
Elizabeth: How could you? How could you bring Helena back here when you knew I was trying to keep him away from her?
Nikolas: Wait a second. We have no chance of saving Lucky unless we know how the programming works. Now, I saw my chance. Okay, I told her I wanted to learn how to do it so I could use it to make him forget about you.
Elizabeth: Yeah, well, she made him forget about me, all right. It's like he never loved me at all.
Nikolas: Well, she called my bluff, okay? It was either I bring her back here or we blow everything that we worked so hard for.
Elizabeth: What if we lost him forever?
Nikolas: Elizabeth, there's no way. We now know a way to get through to him. You saw the trigger, right?
Elizabeth: I will never forget it. I just -- I hid in that closet and watched her do it. I should've done something. I should've grabbed the diamond and run or --
Nikolas: Wait a second. A diamond? That's how she controls Lucky?
Elizabeth: She puts it in front of his face and he can't even look away.
Nikolas: Was it the ring that Stavros gave my mother?
Elizabeth: No. No, no, no, it's much bigger. It looks more like a crystal, so the diamond must be uncut. It scattered light everywhere.
Nikolas: That's the Ice Princess. We're going to get Lucky back.
Jax: So what are you planning, Helena?
Helena: For Alexis? Why would I bother?
Jax: Okay, the more you resist, the more companies you lose. You see how this works?
Helena: A great deal has changed since you disappeared
Jax: Not between us.
Helena: Well, you'd be surprised.
Jax: Well, then surprise me. But, please, not with crashing helicopters or by running down the wrong woman.
Helena: Oh, that Alexis. She blames me for all of her problems.
Jax: Then convince me she's safe and we'll be fine. But until then, I will keep raiding the Cassadine holdings. It's what I do best. Well, almost.
Helena: I'm looking forward to the game.
Jax: Yes, so am I.
Helena: You're leaving so soon?
Jax: One more thing --
Helena: Anything you want.
Jax: Next time you murder Stefan, make sure he stays dead.
Helena: I'll do my best. My very best.
Edward: You don't like the pictures?
Capt. Dalton: Where'd you get these?
Edward: Look, what do you think about this one? Well, here, this cute little redhead in that motel over
Capt. Dalton: This is blackmail.
Edward: No, it's business, Capt.. Dalton. Or should I say Mr. Dalton, huh? The choice is up to you.
Capt. Dalton: You want this lousy job? It's yours.
Edward: Welcome back, commissioner.
Mac: I haven't agreed to anything. And what'd you do to him?
Edward: He was never right for this job.
Mac: If you're pulling strings, neither am I.
Edward: Zander Smith killed Sorel. Catch him.
Angel: Excuse me. I'm looking for someone named Dalton.
Mac: He's not available at the moment.
Angel: Could you tell me if Joseph Sorel's body has been released by the department?
Mac: And you are?
Angel: His daughter.
Mac: Mr. Sorel's body was just released to the medical examiner's office. It'll probably be a little while longer. I'm sorry.
Angel: You've been very kind, Mr. --
Mac: Scorpio. Acting Commissioner Scorpio. I'm sorry for your loss, Ms. Ellis.
Angel: Call me Angel.
Sonny: You think I'd betray our vows like you did?
Carly: Did you?
Sonny: You -- you still don't get it, do you? What do I have to say to get through to you? You not only betrayed me, you tried to force me to betray others, turn me into some kind of snitch, an informant, a man whose word can't be trusted, a man who has no respect because he deserves no respect.
Carly: I told you I am sorry -- You are the most valuable thing I have --
Sonny: Who I am, what I carry inside, my code, my core.
Carly: It's not what I meant to do.
Sonny: It's what you did, though! Picture it -- you and me behind a picket fence in Omaha while Johnny gets 20 years in Bentonville, Benny gets murdered in Attica, and Adam -- what happens to Adam -- he gets whacked --
Carly: No, Sonny, no --
Sonny: I'd have died! I'd have died. I'd have died. I'd have died right here. I'd have died right here. You understand what I'm saying?
Carly: But I was trying to keep you from dying.
Sonny: The only one who would have killed me would have been you.
Sonny: What? Say something.
Carly: I didn't -- I didn't mean --
Sonny: What?
Carly: I was trying to save you, Sonny. I --
Sonny: You were trying to save me from what?
Carly: Then give me back the ring. Give it to me. Even if you did, it doesn't matter because nobody is going to take you away from me -- not the mob, not the justice system, and certainly not some little slut in a white dress with some stupid, made-up name.
Taggert: Guess that means Sonny's around.
Johnny: Do you have a warrant?
Taggert: Did I miss the part where you got a law degree?
Helena's voice: Lucky, you never loved Elizabeth. You never will. Name a memory and it will be gone. You never loved Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: Lucky? You know I love you and I know you love me.
Lucky: I don't love you.
Elizabeth: It's only Helena. Don't be afraid.
Lucky: I've never loved you.
Elizabeth: Helena makes you do terrible things.
Lucky: Leave me alone.
Elizabeth: Like push me away and hurt your father. Lucky, what happened to your father?
Lucky: No!
Gia: Lucky?
Lucky: Hey. How's it going?
Gia: Are you all right?
Lucky: Yeah, yeah.
Gia: Then why were you screaming?
Lucky: Oh, you divas are all the same.
Gia: No, I'm serious.
Lucky: What, a guy can't yell out at the docks once in a while, at the water?
Gia: So where have you been?
Lucky: I've been around.
Gia: I've been worried sick.
Lucky: Why?
Gia: Lucky, we all have.
Lucky: Well, I mean, I can say that I'm great and everything's cool.
Gia: I wish I felt the same.
Lucky: Gia, you need to forget about Nikolas. He's so beneath you and so not worth worrying about.
Gia: Easy to say, hard to do.
Lucky: I dumped Elizabeth.
Gia: Get out. No, you didn't.
Lucky: Yeah, just like that. I'm done with what I can't have and I'm going for what I can. You know, you should try that.
Gia: I'm not there yet.
Lucky: Well, I can give you a little assistance with that.
Elizabeth: So we know the catch phrase.
Nikolas: Right -- "Do we understand each other."
Elizabeth: And that sets Lucky up for the diamond.
Nikolas: Helena said that right in front of me.
Elizabeth: Only to keep Lucky from hurting you.
Nikolas: It definitely worked.
Elizabeth: So this diamond -- it triggers a deeper level of programming. What if we've gone too far?
Nikolas: We're going to get him back.
Elizabeth: But we don't have the diamond or Lucky. And his face, Nikolas.
Nikolas: I promise you everything is going to work out for you and Lucky and for Gia and me. We are in too far to give up now.
Elizabeth: So what do we do first?
Nikolas: We steal the Ice Princess from Helena.
[Door opens]
Helena: Stavros? Stavros, would you please learn to knock? If anyone sees that diamond --
Stavros: Mother, why did you let Stefan buy Windermere?
Helena: Oh, is that where you've been?
Stavros: Yes. It's dreary and gothic, just like Stefan is. And when I'm in charge, things will change --
Helena: We have more serious concerns.
Stavros: Maybe you do.
Helena: Jasper Jacks just may try to stand in our path.
Stavros: Mother, I don't deal with the merchant class. You know that.
Helena: Well, I'm afraid I'm going to have to. It's such a waste. He's so delicious.
Sonny: Would you like some coffee, espresso?
Taggert: No, no, we're okay.
Sonny: Then what are you doing here?
Mac: Mr. Corinthos.
Sonny: Hey, Mr. Scorpio.
Taggert: That's Commissioner to you.
Sonny: Really? Congratulations.
Mac: Have I missed anything?
Taggert: Not yet, Sir.
Sonny: I guess Det. Taggert was getting ready to harass me or something.
Mac: Where were you the night Joseph Sorel was murdered?
>> On the next "General Hospital" --
Angel: Where do you think you're going?
Gia: What is going on with you?
Lucky: Whatever you want.
Taggert: We're working on the Joseph Sorel murder.
Alexis: What charges are you filing?
[Keys jingle]
Chloe: I'm on to you.
