>> Previously on "General Hospital" --

Brenda: I want to marry Jax. Things are just moving too fast for me.

Ned: Excuse me. Wait.

Jax: I'll do anything I can to help you.

Skye: That means a lot to me.

Elizabeth: Didn't you know that Jason and Courtney are together?

Ric: Really?

Carly: What if Courtney doesn't think what you want is best?

Sonny: You name one thing she can't bear to leave behind.

Jason: Brenda wouldn't sign the annulment papers.

Courtney: Brenda finally realized how wonderful you are and didn't --

Jason: No, no --

Courtney: She doesn't want you to go.

Jason: No, no, no, she doesn't like me.

Courtney: Actions speak louder than words, don't they?

Jason: Look, she wants to stall this annulment for personal reasons. It has nothing to do with me. This marriage is over.

Courtney: Except for you're still married.

Jason: But that's why we're going to file for the annulment here in New York. But as of now, Brenda's doing what she wants and I'm doing what I want, and I'm taking my life back.

Courtney: Oh, what exactly does that mean?

Jason: That means that we don't have to hide that we're together. I'm telling Sonny tonight.

Sonny: What does Port Charles have to offer Courtney? Name one thing.

Carly: You.

Sonny: Well, I'll go visit her in college.

Carly: After you drag her out of her life? No, don't count on it.

Sonny: She's going to love college. She's just got to get used to the idea.

Carly: Sonny, come on, you and Courtney are now just able to stay in the same room for five minutes without arguing. Why do you want to mess with that? She's just starting to get to know Michael and she's not going to want to leave Mike --

Sonny: I'll bring -- I'll bring her home for the holidays.

Carly: She has a life here.

Sonny: What life? She lives in a dump, waits on tables at Kelly's, and she's got a dog instead of friends. She's going through a messy divorce. What's there to lose?

Carly: Come on, Sonny. She's never taken a dime from you in town. What makes you think she's going to take money to go out of state to some school?

Sonny: Because it's the best thing.

Carly: Has Courtney ever, ever let you make a decision for her?

Sonny: Well, this is different.

Carly: No. I'm sorry, no woman should allow a man to take charge of her life.

Sonny: Okay, what if the man's good at it --

Carly: No.

Sonny: And he makes excellent plans?

Carly: No, no, not even then.

Sonny: Well, I guess I'm going to cancel our trip.

Carly: What trip? What?

[Carly laughs]

Ned: Excuse me.

Cameron: Sorry, Ned.

Elizabeth: Hi.

Ned: Hi.

Elizabeth: I can see you're in a hurry, so I'll tell you the specials --

Ned: Has a redhead been here tonight?

Elizabeth: A what?

Ned: A woman with red hair. She was wearing a suede jacket, fringe, brown boots. Has she been here?

Elizabeth: I don't think so, but we have been kind of busy.

Cameron: Ned? I couldn't help overhearing. Did you say something about a redhead?

Ned: Did you see her?

Cameron: Not in here.

Ned: But you've seen her around town?

Cameron: What did she look like again?

Ned: Strangely enough, she looked an awful lot like this.

[Phone rings]

Ric: Yeah?

Sonny: I need you to cover a couple things for me.

Ric: Sure.

Sonny: Jason's still in the Dominican Republic, or he'd handle it.

Ric: I understand.

Sonny: How soon can you get over here?

Ric: Are you at home?

Sonny: Yeah.

Ric: I'll be right there.

Skye: I'm not answering any questions without an attorney present, okay?

Scott: I don't blame you.

Skye: Then why are you sending your cops after me?

Scott: Taggert --

Taggert: What?

Scott: Didn't you understand my instructions? I said go out there and extend a polite invitation.

Taggert: I'm just following your rules, sir, that's all.

Scott: Well, you know what, I really have no questions.

Skye: Then why are you wasting my time?

Scott: Well, I'd like you to read these words onto this tape recorder.

Skye: How drunk do you think I am?

Scott: I don't know. How drunk are you?

Skye: Why would I read somebody else's murder confession into a tape recorder?

Scott: Don't think of it as a confession. Just whisper the words.

Skye: You people are desperate, aren't you?

Scott: We've got the killer's voice on tape. We want to put your voice on tape, send it out to the experts, see what happens.

Taggert: You are under no obligation to do this.

Scott: Listen, why not? Why not? If your voice doesn't match, you're clear. Go out, pour yourself a stiff one, have a good time. But let me tell you this -- if they do match, not even Jax is going to get you out of this mess.

[Brenda laughs]

Jax: Nothing will ever get in our way again.

Brenda: So, is this actually an invitation to my own wedding?

Jax: The wedding planner called this a rough draft.

Brenda: Oh, you hired a wedding planner?

Jax: I did. I did.

Brenda: Okay.

Jax: You know me. You know, once I know I want something, I go after it with everything I have.

Brenda: Yes, but this is a wedding. It's not a corporate merger.

Jax: Oh, I know, I know. I mean, I don't care if it's a big wedding or a small wedding or -- or where it is. And you can plan this yourself if you want, or you can turn the project over to Elton.

Brenda: Elton?

Jax: Yes, I hired Elton.

Brenda: And when is this wedding supposed to take place?

Jax: Whenever you want. But of course, you know, I'd rather sooner than later.

Brenda: Oh. Well, I love you. I think that we should wait.

Cameron: She must've been an extraordinary woman.

Ned: Yes, she was. And I could've sworn it was her.

Cameron: We could all use some sleep.

Ned: Yeah. Yeah, of course. That's got to be it.

Cameron: You all right?

Alexis: I have nothing to say to you.

Cameron: Sorry about the scene with Zander.

Alexis: I don't see Zander as the problem.

Cameron: I understand that you did a lot for him.

Alexis: I did what I could, given that he was using Sonny Corinthos as a father figure.

Cameron: Well, thanks for looking out for him.

Alexis: What do you want?

Cameron: I'm a little concerned about Ned.

Alexis: I love this. Your son is in serious trouble -- even I heard about the overdose and the restraints -- and you want to talk about my old boyfriend?

Cameron: Ned believed that he saw your sister, Kristina.

Brenda: So there's this big hurricane and all this rain, right, and all the bridges are closed. So we get stuck in this hut together, and this cab driver tells us that his cousin is a judge.

Jax: His -- his cousin?

Brenda: Yes, his cousin. So now this cab driver's cousin is going to be handling my annulment. So we waited for a few hours, basically because we had no other choice, and he showed up. And I don't know if he was for real or not, but we decided against it.

Jax: So you came home?

Brenda: Yeah. I just figured we'd file for annulment here.

Jax: That could take months, Brenda.

Brenda: I know.

Jax: No, no, no --

Brenda: That could be really good. A few months? A few months is nothing to us.

Jax: We could be --

Brenda: That's a like a trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras.

Jax: Do you realize that --

Brenda: Let's do that.

Jax: We could be waiting until the middle of summer?

Brenda: Yeah. So? It could be nice. We could have a real courtship like we did last time. Yes, there'll be no deadlines, no pressure.

Jax: No way.

[Tape recorder plays]

Skye's voice: I stabbed Alcazar in the stomach. He backed away from me and I pushed him over the railing. Then I dropped the knife where you found it and ran.

Skye: Anything else I can do for you gentlemen? Maybe stand in a lineup, take a few mug shots?

Scott: No, I think that'll do.

Skye: Oh, glad you feel that way. I hope you realize you just helped exonerate me right now.

Scott: Well, you know, I'm no expert, but your voice does sound a lot like the murderer's voice.

Skye: Look, I did not kill Alcazar, okay? I agreed to your request because I -- I am a cooperative citizen who wanted to comply with your investigation, but I'm innocent.

Scott: Oh, sure. But you testified that you don't remember anything about that night.

Skye: Well, you know, those voices aren't going to match. No expert's going to tell you that.

Scott: Do you know the funny thing about experts? They tend to say exactly what I want to hear.

Skye: Wait a minute.

Scott: Your husband dumped you on your wedding night for his ex-girlfriend. You got a bit of a drinking problem, you know. You blacked out. You killed the guy.

Skye: No, I did not.

Scott: You know, I'm looking at manslaughter. Of course, you did try to pin it on Brenda.

Skye: Yeah, well, so did you and everybody else.

Scott: That could be popped up to murder two. Of course, I can't make any promises.

Skye: You give me this tape right now!

Scott: You're tampering with evidence now.

Skye: You set me up! Those aren't even my words!

Scott: You -- you just whispered the words.

Taggert: Nobody's jumping to any conclusions.

Scott: Nobody has them.

Taggert: You know what, that's enough, all right? We're going to have that tape checked out by an expert, and I will personally see to it that everything goes by the book.

Skye: Yeah, well, you'd better.

Scott: Absolutely, but, you know, voices on tape -- they tend to sound alike. And in my old age now, sometimes I misplace evidence. Of course, you already know that.

Skye: You're not going to get away with this.

Courtney: Do we have to tell Sonny tonight?

Jason: Well, the sooner the better.

Courtney: Yeah, but I like it here, just the two of us.

Jason: So do I.

Courtney: We're away from everything, you know? It's like our own private universe. It'll be gone once we tell everyone.

Jason: Maybe. But we can still disappear.

Courtney: Since when?

Jason: You want to go to the Caribbean?

Courtney: The Caribbean?

Jason: Yeah. We're going to tell Sonny, we'll hop on the next plane to the Caribbean.

Courtney: Wait, you mean tonight?

Jason: Yeah, tonight. Pack.

Courtney: It sounds wonderful.

Jason: Great. Well, am -- am I missing something?

Courtney: Do you ever get the feeling that everything's about to change?

Jason: No.

Courtney: Well, I'm having that feeling right now and it's kind of spooky.

Jason: No, no, no, things are -- Courtney, things are changing for the better right now. And after tonight, we don't have to keep this from everyone we care about anymore.

Courtney: I'm worried about Elizabeth and A.J.

Jason: They both already know.

Courtney: Well, yeah, but if we tell the whole world, won't it be like we're throwing it in their faces?

Jason: Look, I -- I hurt Elizabeth. It wasn't on purpose, but that has nothing to do with you and me.

Courtney: Okay, but what about A.J.? Yeah, we're legally separated, but he'll use this against me in the divorce.

Jason: So what? You're not asking anything from him. There's no way that he can force you to stay married to him.

Courtney: Okay, well, then what about Sonny?

Jason: I should've probably told him before, but I was waiting for the right time and the time is now. He deserves to know.

Sonny: Hey, Carly, this is just a thought -- wouldn't it be easier to pack upstairs?

Carly: With Michael and Leticia getting ready to go to Bobbie's? No, I don't think so. Believe me, it's much better down here.

Sonny: Okay. Don't forget this. It's very nice.

Carly: Shut up. Give me that. Ugh. So, what kind of makeup are we talking about?

Sonny: Oh, no, no, no, no. No makeup.

Carly: You don't mean that. You only think you do.

Sonny: Are -- are you planning on going hiking with these, or what are you --

Carly: This from nature boy? Hmm?

Sonny: Well, it's a cabin, okay, in the woods, and you got to bring warm things.

Carly: Oh, okay. So I'm sure that you'll be packing your thermal underwear, then, right?

Sonny: Well, I have a nice coat.

Carly: Italian silk in the middle of winter in upstate New York? No, I don't think so.

Sonny: Oh, you're the expert now?

Carly: That's not a hard one. So, is there going to be heat in this cabin?

Sonny: Yeah -- me. No -- a fireplace.

Carly: Oh. Okay. Well, then maybe I should leave this here, and I'm going to get my flannel.

Sonny: No, no, I don't think you're going to do that.

Carly: No?

Sonny: I think you'll put this right back here is what you're going to do.

Carly: Hmm. What are we going to eat?

Sonny: Well, Marco -- he's gathering up some things, and you think you can manage a can opener?

Carly: If I couldn't manage a can opener, Michael and I would be dead by now.

Sonny: Well, I thought because you're so into, like, microwaves and, you know, fast foods and, you know, frozen foods, I thought -- what are you doing?

Carly: I don't like that anymore.

Sonny: Oh.

Carly: There's got to be a really nice four-star hotel out there. We can just have it delivered!

Sonny: No. There's no hotels, no restaurants, no faxes, no computers -- just me and you.

Carly: Okay, what's going on here? What aren't you telling me? Something's off.

Sonny: Nothing.

Carly: No, no, no, you're in too good a mood. What, something terrible is about to happen, isn't it?

Sonny: No, I want to spend time with my wife. You've been dealing with a lot -- Jason's trial and all that stuff. Michael's sick. I just -- you know, I just want to spend some time with you. What's wrong with that?

Carly: Nothing.

Sonny: Okay?

Carly: Yeah. You miss me?

Sonny: Of course I miss you. I always miss you. And you've been going through a lot week after week, right? Even after I lost it at the trial, you didn't. And what do you get in return? Not much because I've been spending all this time with everybody else except my wife. So I want to make up for lost time.

Carly: Well, I miss you, too.

Sonny: Okay?

Carly: Mm-hmm.

[Knock on door]

Carly: Ugh, I cannot believe it. Okay, you know what, I'm getting rid of them right now. They're going. Good-bye. Good-bye.

Ric: Hi.

Carly: Uh --

Ric: Whoa. Bad time?

Carly: Yeah, it is. Bye-bye.

Sonny: No, no, no. Actually, I called Ric.

Carly: When?

Sonny: When you were upstairs.

Carly: I'll be upstairs. Don't take too long.

Ric: Is everything all right?

Sonny: Yeah. We're -- we're going to be going out of town. She's packing.

Ric: Oh, I see.

Sonny: I need you to take care of a few things. Jason would do it, but I don't know when he's going to be back.

Ric: Well, yeah, I -- I'd be happy to fill in for Jason.

Jax: Come on. We've already lost years together. I don't want to waste another moment.

Brenda: But we are together.

Jax: It's not the same thing. Look, I could fly down to the Dominican Republic tomorrow and get that annulment. We could be married within a week.

Brenda: Why are you in such a rush?

Jax: Why are you not? I love you. I want to marry you. I'll get Jason's power of attorney.

Brenda: No, you won't.

Jax: Why not? I mean, unless there's some reason that he wants to stay married to you?

Brenda: Okay. It's kind of complicated.

Jax: What's going on?

Brenda: I wanted to talk to you about it before.

Jax: Has Jason fallen in love with you?

Brenda: Are you kidding?

Jax: Well, then why would you want to stay married to that thug?

Jason: Sonny?

Ric: Sonny isn't here, Jason.

Jason: Where's Carly?

Ric: Well, you just missed them.

Jason: What about Michael?

Ric: I think he's at Bobbie's. He's a cute kid.

Jason: Why don't you tell me what you're doing here, Ric.

Ric: Oh, just a little project for Sonny. Nothing major. Excuse me.

Jason: Well, if it's not major, then it can wait till Sonny gets back.

Ric: Well, I don't know when that's going to be. I mean, it could be days. It could be weeks, even. Look, I'd love to help you out, but Sonny didn't tell me how long he was going to be gone. I mean, I thought that he'd keep you abreast of the situation. Or maybe not. Well, look, you're the amazing Jason Morgan, right? I'm sure you can figure it out on your own.

Courtney: Hey, is Bobbie around?

Elizabeth: Nope.

Courtney: Well, wasn't she going to come in and do the books?

Elizabeth: Bobbie doesn't clear her schedule with me.

Courtney: Do you have any idea when she's going to be back?

Elizabeth: Nope.

Courtney: Well, she didn't answer her cell phone.

Elizabeth: Is this an emergency?

Courtney: I just need a couple days off, that's all.

Elizabeth: Why? Are you sick? Because you certainly look healthy.

Courtney: I'll discuss it with Bobbie.

Elizabeth: Is A.J. giving you a hard time again?

Courtney: Why are you doing this?

Elizabeth: Because I'm the one who's going to end up covering for you, and I think I deserve to know what's going on. Is it some sort of family emergency? I mean, the Quartermaines? Mike? The mob?

Courtney: I'm going to go spend a few days with Jason.

Cameron: Why would Ned think that he saw Kristina on the docks?

Alexis: You'll do absolutely anything not to discuss your son, won't you?

Cameron: Pretty much.

Alexis: Did you know that Zander got beat up so badly by Jason Morgan that he had to be taken to the hospital?

Cameron: No, I wasn't aware of that.

Alexis: See, that's what I think, that you should become more aware of your own family. That way you can leave my family alone.

Cameron: I can't help Alexander.

Alexis: Meaning you can help me?

Cameron: You take my mind off my own life. All my patients do. Why do you think I went into psychiatry?

Alexis: Oh, so, now I'm your patient? Is that right?

Cameron: No, not at all, but we have both lost close family members.

Alexis: You aren't going to say, "I feel your pain," are you?

Cameron: You know, I used to see my son Pete after he died. Once I saw him in a video store with a bunch of college kids. Or I'd catch a glimpse of him in this pizza place we used to go.

Alexis: Ned is undoubtedly still grieving for Kristina. But it still has nothing to do with me.

Cameron: Everybody grieves in their own way -- work, alcohol, drugs.

Alexis: Zander chooses drugs, in case you were interested.

Cameron: Can we just agree that I'm a bad father and move on?

Alexis: Zander knows what it's like to lose a sibling, and so do I.

Cameron: Zander admired his brother.

Alexis: I admired my sister.

Cameron: You ever find yourself trying to be like her?

Alexis: No.

Cameron: Maybe dress in her style without knowing it?

Alexis: Why on earth would you ask me something like that?

Cameron: It's those wind chimes you don't remember buying.

Alexis: When did this get to be about me?

Skye: Oh --

[Brenda screams]

Skye: All right, something -- something else happened that night. Now just remember it, you idiot. Think.

Skye: Oh, my God. Someone else was here that night.

Skye: Okay, another woman was here.

[Phone rings]

Skye: Oh, please, pick up, pick up. Come on, Jax, answer the phone.

[Ring]

Brenda: You going to answer that?

Jax: No. We're more important that the phone call.

[Ring]

Brenda: I absolutely do not want to stay married to Jason.

[Phones stops ringing]

Jax: Okay.

Brenda: But he is not going to give you power of attorney. He won't even speak to you.

Jax: Well --

Brenda: He doesn't like you.

Jax: Why would Jason want to stall the annulment? I don't understand that.

Brenda: Because.

Jax: Because?

Brenda: I just think that we need to sit still for a second. It's not really a great time to be planning a wedding.

Jax: Why? Because Baldwin's going after Skye?

Brenda: Exactly. So, how do you feel about that?

Jax: You know what I think? I think you don't want this annulment. It has nothing to do with Jason.

Sonny: Okay.

Carly: Ah, look at this place. Oh, it's beautiful. Oh. What's that smell?

Sonny: I don't --

Carly: Is it wood smoke?

Sonny: I don't know.

Carly: Ah, look at the view. Look at it outside.

Sonny: Wow, snow on snow forever.

Carly: And I've got you all to myself.

Sonny: Yeah?

Carly: Yeah.

Sonny: Well, that's the idea.

Carly: I don't know if I should tell you this, but --

Sonny: What?

Carly: It's time.

Sonny: What do you mean, "time"?

Carly: You know, time. All the conditions are perfect.

Sonny: For what?

Carly: For making a baby.

Sonny: Ah. Yeah.

Jason: All right, thanks, Greg. No, I got a pretty good idea where it is. Yeah, yeah. Well, I got back a little early. All right. Later.

Ric: Did you find Sonny?

Jason: Yeah, and we're leaving right now.

Ric: No, that's okay. I'll lock up. You go ahead.

Jason: No, that's okay. Why don't you pack your things up because we're taking off, Ric.

Ric: Fine. I was just about ready to shut down anyway. I can finish relocating Sonny's sister tomorrow. You know, I think it's a great idea that he's sending her off to college, don't you? He told you all about that, didn't he? Well, you know, we're thinking of a good liberal arts college, you know, one with a good reputation, prestige. You know, Vermont's got a couple. Massachusetts has got tons. We're not ruling out California, though, but as long as it's out of state and we can get her admitted as soon as possible. Why am I telling you this? He keeps you up to speed, doesn't he? I'm sure you know that Sonny wants to keep Courtney away from the unsavory elements of his business.

Courtney: Why don't you just throw them against the wall and get it over with?

Elizabeth: What are you still doing here?

Courtney: Well, Bobbie's bound to show up sometime.

Elizabeth: Uh-uh, this isn't about Bobbie. This is about you flaunting your relationship with my ex-boyfriend.

Courtney: What do you want from me, Elizabeth? I mean, I try to -- I try to be quiet about Jason, and you say I'm being a sneak. And then I tell you what's going on, and you say I'm flaunting it in your face. I mean --

Elizabeth: Because you are.

Courtney: You told me that you guys were finished, and I finally believed you. Okay, I'm not going to be sorry for that. I'm not going to apologize because I don't feel guilty or sorry or bad, and I'm not going to stand around and listen to you pout and throw dishes around.

Elizabeth: And what shall I tell Bobbie?

Courtney: I'll just call her at home.

Skye: All right, all right, think. She was here, and I was there. Oh, come on, think of her face. What did she look like? Come on, think.

[Door opens]

Scott: Hey, you're under arrest.

Skye: No!

Scott: That's right. That tape gave us a warrant. We've been following you since you left the police station.

Skye: Look, I didn't do it. I'm absolutely sure. There was somebody else in this room. I can almost remember.

Taggert: What do you remember?

Skye: I remember a woman in this room! I can -- I can practically see her face.

Scott: Really? Well, tell it to the judge. Come on, let's go put her on ice.

Skye: No, get away from me!

Scott: Taggert, come here. Arrest her. Do your job.

Taggert: What, you need my help? Earlier you were the big-time D.A. You could do everything yourself.

Scott: I'm not going to stand here and sweet-talk her. What the hell -- hey! No, don't --

Skye: Get away from me! Get away from me, or I swear -- I swear I will jump!

Brenda: Let's look on the bright side of this. We can kick back, catch our breath. We're together. What do we have to get hung up on the details for?

[Phone rings]

Brenda: And the phone.

[Jax turns off phone]

Jax: I think you need to give me a straight answer.

Brenda: I think that I need a proper welcome home. Let's have some more champagne. Come on.

[Phone rings]

Jax: You're dodging. You're just -- I mean, you know, there's something that you're not telling me. Don't answer the phone, please.

Brenda: Someone obviously really wants to get ahold of one of us. Hello? Hello?

Scott: Scott Baldwin. Let me talk to Jax.

Brenda: Uh, he's right here. Scott Baldwin.

Jax: What do you want?

Scott: All right, look, your ex-wife is on Alcazar's ledge. She's threatening to jump if you don't get over here.

Jax: All right, I'll be right there.

Taggert: Whoa, whoa. No, no, no, okay. Just relax, Skye, okay? We can talk this out now. Just breathe. That's it.

Sonny: Isn't wood supposed to burn? Because I used all kinds of matches. I don't know what is happening with that --

Carly: You need newspaper, okay? You know those little sticks? It's called kindling?

Sonny: Okay, kindling?

Carly: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: Maybe there's a switch somewhere.

Carly: You're hopeless!

Sonny: Wait, wait, wait. Where do you think you're going?

Carly: Well, do you want us to freeze to death?

Sonny: No one's freezing to death. Come on.

Carly: Really?

Sonny: No.

Carly: You can keep me warm?

Sonny: You think so?

Sonny: A baby, huh?

Carly: Well, what do you think?

Sonny: Well, you know, we live a dangerous life, you know.

Carly: Yeah. Maybe it's too dangerous. I don't know.

Sonny: Yeah.

Carly: But we've wanted a baby for a really long time. I don't know, I'm just saying there's a chance. So, you know, maybe we'll take the chance, maybe we won't. But a baby is like hope.

Sonny: Sure, to us. What about the baby? I mean, look what Michael's been through already -- living on the island, his friends don't even want to come over, and guards everywhere.

Carly: Michael's a very happy child.

Sonny: Yeah, I know that, but sooner or later I'm going to have to do for him what I'm doing for Courtney, you know? Send him away to a better life.

Carly: Why are you so determined to send Courtney away from everything she loves?

Courtney: Hey. So, what did Sonny say?

Jason: Uh, Sonny and Carly aren't home. They're at a cabin.

Courtney: Is everything all right?

Jason: They just needed to get away.

Courtney: Well, that buys us some time, doesn't it, in our little private universe?

Jason: Sonny's planning to send you to college out of state.

Courtney: Sonny's what?

Jason: Ric's setting it up.

Courtney: Wait, Ric Lansing?

Jason: Yeah, he was at the penthouse.

Courtney: What is wrong with my brother? How can he think this way? I mean, God, you know, I was just starting to like him, and for what? There's no way that Sonny is going to run my life, especially not now.

Jason: That's why we have to tell him tonight.

Courtney: Well, what, you want to go to that cabin?

Jason: Ric says that Sonny wants you out of town as soon as possible.

Courtney: Great. No problem. I'm leaving with you. I've already cleared it with Bobbie. Let's just go! We don't have to tell Sonny. He obviously doesn't have any respect for me.

Jason: No, no, hold on. Come on, Sonny loves you. We're his family. That's why we're going to go up to the cabin and we're going to tell him together.

Elizabeth: Shoot. Ugh!

Ric: You want to tell me what's going on?

Elizabeth: Oh, I just want to break every dish in the building, tip over a few tables, throw some chairs out the window, you know.

Ric: Okay. You know, remind me to never make you mad, then, huh?

Elizabeth: If she didn't act so damned innocent.

Ric: Uh -- don't tell me, let me guess. Courtney?

Elizabeth: You know she came back in here tonight? You believe that? She'd already come by to pick up her paycheck. She had no reason to be in here, and then she made some lame excuse about seeing Bobbie. Like I believe that. She just couldn't wait to tell me that she and Jason were going out of town tonight.

Ric: Oh, really? Did she happen to mention where?

Elizabeth: No. She just came by to gloat. It doesn't matter where they're going.

Ric: Good. So -- so, can you take a break?

Elizabeth: Yeah, I'm -- I'm done. I'm just too mad to go home.

Ric: Good, then why don't we just take a walk. Fresh air will do you good.

Elizabeth: Okay.

Ric: You'll feel better, I promise.

Elizabeth: Well, don't count on it.

Cameron: It's possible to get lost in grief.

Alexis: Meaning?

Cameron: It swallows you up, changes your life.

Alexis: You see your son on the interstate, I visit my sister once a month. I still to this day wish desperately that my sister never walked into that warehouse. And I am grateful every day to whoever it was that had the courage to execute Alcazar. Whoever did that should be praised, not prosecuted.

[Phone rings]

Cameron: Excuse me. Cameron. I'm leaving now.

Alexis: What happened?

Cameron: Ahem. Skye Quartermaine is on Alcazar's terrace. She's threatening to jump.

[Answering machine beeps]

Brenda: Hey, Jason, it's Brenda. Listen, Jax is going to come looking for you, probably, and ask you to give him power of attorney so he can take care of our annulment. I know that you want to, but please do not. He's -- I don't know. He's not thinking straight. He wants to get married right away. Something's not right.

Sonny: I don't want to talk about Courtney. I just want to talk about --

Carly: Hmm?

Sonny: About something else, all right? Let me show you what I want to talk about.

Courtney: "Sonny, this may come as a shock." No. "You know what, now that I'm with Jason, Sonny, you are not sending me away to college." That'll work.

Jason: You ready?

Courtney: Yeah. Thanks.

Jason: Grab my coat.

Courtney: Mm-hmm.

Elizabeth: Oh, my God, I don't believe this.

Ric: What?

Elizabeth: This building. This -- do you see that window?

Ric: Yeah?

Elizabeth: That is where Jason and Courtney hang out.

Ric: Really?

Elizabeth: Yes.

Ric: You sure?

Elizabeth: Yes, yes, I'm positive. God, how does this happen? I must be going crazy.

Ric: Wait, wait --

Elizabeth: Come with me.

Ric: Where you going? Where you going? Wait a minute. Wait, stop. Okay, we don't have to hide.

Elizabeth: Yeah, well, I'm going to have to fall through the sidewalk if Jason comes out that door.

Ric: It's obvious the situation is on your mind.

Elizabeth: Yeah, isn't that pathetic? Don't worry, you don't have to act like you know me. Just don't laugh.

Ric: I'm not laughing.

Elizabeth: Oh, my God, look.

Courtney: I can't believe we're actually doing this.

Jason: Are you nervous?

Courtney: Yeah. Who wouldn't be?

Elizabeth: They're not just going out of town for a couple of days. They're eloping.

Alexis: Are you all right?

Jax: Come on.

Alexis: What happened?

Scott: Hey, was it on the news, and was my name mentioned?

Alexis: I was with Cameron when he found out. Is she out there?

Taggert: Yeah.

Cameron: Snow's pretty from up here.

Skye: Go away.

Cameron: There's a blizzard in the mountains.

Skye: Jax!

Jax: You must be freezing.

Skye: I knew you'd come.

>> On the next "General Hospital" --

Ned: Sonny and Carly will be arrested for narcotics trafficking.

Sonny: How do you feel?

Carly: Good.

Courtney: It's official. We're lost.

Jason: No, it's an adventure.

Jax: I need you to come over the railing.

Skye: I'm so sorry.
