Sonny: Alexis, you cannot honestly think I tried to have you killed.

Alexis: All I know is it wasn't an accidental hit-and-run. We were so far off the main road, we were so close to the edge of the cliff. Two more feet, we would've gone over. We had to have been followed.

Sonny: And that means I'm involved?

Alexis: You tell me.

Reese: We're investigating the possibility that the collision was a mob-related attack. They could've been targeting Ric because he's Sonny's brother.

Alexis: My God, people are coming after you through your family. Why on earth would you bring her here?

Sonny: Because I wanted her safe.

Alexis: This is the most dangerous place on the planet, Sonny! I wish I'd taken her when I had the chance.

Elizabeth: Wow, no crutches, huh?

Lucky: Yeah.

Elizabeth: Told your legs would get stronger.

Lucky: Well, it couldn't have happened fast enough for me. I think it's about time that I leave Wyndemere.

Elizabeth: It's not going so well?

Lucky: No, you were right. I'm not helping. I think I'm only making things worse for Emily.

Sam: Emily -- Emily, don't do it. I'm okay. Please put the gun down.

Man: Listen to her.

Connor's voice: You were begging me to play along. I'm going to stay right here and keep being Nikolas!

[Emily screams]

Emily's voice: Stop!

Jason: Emily -- just put the gun down.

Alexis: As painful as I know this has been for you, you have got to learn something from what happened to Michael. The people close to you are in constant danger, and they will continue to pay for it with their lives until there isn't anyone left.

Sonny: I was just trying to protect Kristina.

Alexis: You brought her back to the place that she was abducted.

Reese: Okay, this is the safest place for Kristina right now. The security guards are surrounding the house --

Alexis: I know all about the security guards and I know all about the security system, and it didn't do my daughter any good.

Sonny: It's been overhauled.

Alexis: Is that supposed to reassure me?

Sonny: Nothing's going to happen!

Alexis: You say that every time, and every time, something terrible happens here! You don't honestly believe what you're saying, do you?

Reese: You've obviously been through a traumatic experience here, Alexis, and you're understandably emotional, but we just have to keep calm --

Alexis: Don't condescend to me, Agent Marshall. What, you've known him all of two months? I almost died this evening simply because my husband and my daughter happen to be related to him.

Sonny: Say the words, Alexis. Kristina's my daughter. I have the right --

Alexis: She has a right to be protected, and she is not protected in this house! Carly, you and I don't agree about a lot of things, but I know that we believe that protecting our children is the most important thing.

Carly: Okay.

Sonny: She's on her soapbox again.

Alexis: You lost one child. I know that you would move heaven and earth not to lose Morgan.

Carly: Of course I would.

Alexis: Then tell him. You tell him that the children are not safe here and that no matter how much Sonny may love them, he needs to let them go. Tell him, Carly.

Lucky: There was a time last summer that I thought that I was in love with Emily. Things -- they just weren't going so well and I was just feeling cut off and alone, and Emily was my closest childhood friend.

Elizabeth: Lucky, you don't have to explain.

Lucky: No. I want you to understand. She brought it up tonight.

Elizabeth: In what context?

Lucky: Well, she implied that maybe there could be something between us.

Elizabeth: You mean like something romantic?

Lucky: I know she was looking for a way to hide from Nikolas.

Elizabeth: Oh. Well, that -- that must've been really difficult.

Lucky: Yeah, but not for the reasons that you mean. Emily loves Nikolas, and Nikolas loves her, and we all want them to be together, but she's hurting and scared since Connor raped her and she just doesn't know how to get past it.

Elizabeth: Can I ask you something?

Lucky: Yeah, yeah.

Elizabeth: If Emily didn't love Nikolas and she were free to choose whoever she wanted and she chose you, how would that make you feel?

Lucky: I would tell her that we were friends and nothing more.

Elizabeth: You don't have to say that for my sake, Lucky.

Lucky: No. I mean it. Emily doesn't make my heart skip a beat when I see her, but you do, Elizabeth. Every time I see you, I just think of what you've meant and that last kiss that we shared before I went to the hospital and -- you know, I can't imagine wanting anything more than to kiss you again.

[Pager beeps]

Elizabeth: Um -- I have to go. No, no, sit down.

Lucky: Okay.

Elizabeth: I think about that kiss, too. All the time.

Jason: Emily? Emily, it's over. I'm going to take care of this, okay? Put the gun down.

Emily: He was hurting her.

Jason: He's not going to hurt her anymore. I won't let him, trust me. You can trust me. Just -- just take your finger off the trigger.

Jason: It's okay, I got it. Let go.

Emily: I had to stop them, Jason.

Sam: Emily, thank you so much. You saved me. You saved me, and that's what I'm going to tell the police, okay?

Jason: Come here. Okay. Can you get to Wyndemere by yourself?

Emily: Don't I -- don't I need to stay here and make a statement?

Jason: No, no, I'm going to take care of that for you, okay? Right now I need you to go. Those guys are not going to hurt you. I need you to go straight home. Do not talk to anyone.

Emily: But what about Mike?

Jason: Mike -- you have to go before he comes to.

Emily: Okay.

Jason: Okay?

Sam: What now, Jason?

Jason: What now? I want you to call the cops. Tell them everything that happened, but do not tell them Emily was here.

Sam: No, no, no, what are you doing? You're putting your fingerprints all over the gun. They're going to I.D. you.

Jason: That's the idea. I don't want them questioning Emily.

[Mike groans]

Mike: I tried to get to my shotgun, but they saw me.

Jason: No, Mike, it's okay. They're gone.

Mike: Yeah? Sam?

Jason: She's fine. Nothing happened to her.

Mike: Okay. Listen, thank God you came along when you did.

Sam: Jason, an ambulance is on its way.

Jason: Okay, Mike, I got to talk to Sam for a minute. Just try to take it easy, okay?

Mike: Believe me, I will.

Sam: Are you sure about this?

Jason: I do not want Emily involved. She's been through enough. So have you.

Sam: Just it all happened so quickly, you know?

Jason: Did those guys hit you?

Sam: I'm okay. I was giving it all I got, you know, and then Emily showed up, thank God.

Jason: Did you recognize the guys?

Sam: No, but --

Jason: But what? What? Did they say something?

Sam: They wanted to send a message to Sonny, and that's why they went after Mike. And then I showed up. I tried to stop them, and then they decided to use me to send the message instead.

Lucky: Hey.

Emily: Hi.

Lucky: Where'd you go?

Emily: Oh, just, uh, out. I ran a few errands.

Lucky: Everything okay?

Emily: Yeah, it's just been a bad day.

Lucky: Anything in particular?

Emily: God, just been thinking about Nikolas, how we were looking forward to our life together and how wonderful it was going to be.

Lucky: Can still happen.

Emily: Lucky -- maybe it was a bad idea for me to stay here at Wyndemere. I move around the house remembering all the things I did with Nikolas. You know, sitting in front of the fire, reading books, talking for hours as we walked around the island. Lying in bed, looking out at the water, spinning dreams about what our future was going to be like.

Lucky: He'll be home someday. Then you can do all those things again.

Emily: It's never going to be the same.

Lucky: Why not?

Emily: When I think about our wedding day and the promises we made, how sure we were that we were going to be able to overcome anything -- I can't do this. Lucky, I can't lie anymore.

Lucky: Em, whatever it is, you can tell me.

Emily: I came close to killing a man just now.

Lucky: Whoa, what do you mean?

Emily: I -- I went to Kelly’s and I saw two men attacking Sam. They were throwing her around, manhandling her, and Sam was fighting back as hard as she could, but she wasn't strong enough. Mike's sawed-off shotgun was behind the counter, and I took it and I aimed it at the men and I almost shot them. My God, Lucky, I was ready to pull that trigger.

Lucky: You were just trying to save Sam.

Emily: I wasn't thinking about Sam or the man who was attacking her. All I could think about was Connor and what he did to me. I almost killed a man because Connor raped me.

Carly: Look, Alexis, we don't know what's going on yet, and until we do, this is the safest place for Morgan and Kristina, here at Sonny’s.

Alexis: I can't believe I'm hearing that.

Carly: Did you only ask me so I'd agree with you?

Alexis: How, after everything that has happened to you, can you ignore reality?

Carly: Sonny has the most security.

Alexis: He always does, and it doesn't make one iota of difference. My God, Carly, you're still choosing loyalty to him over the welfare of your children?

Carly: Nothing is more important to me than my son's safety.

Sonny: They're upstairs, Alexis. They're safe. They're happy. What do you want?

Carly: Yeah, but that's not the point, is it, Alexis?

Alexis: I'm going to get my daughter.

Sonny: No, no, wait, wait, okay? Kristina is staying here tonight.

Alexis: What are you going to do? Are you going to break my kneecaps?

Carly: Stop being so dramatic.

Alexis: You're a federal agent. Are you going to stand there and say nothing?

Sonny: Agent Marshall already gave her opinion. She thinks the kids are safer here with me tonight.

Alexis: You and Agent Marshall are obviously very comfortable with each other.

Sonny: Okay, come on now. You need to leave, now. I don't want to throw you out, but you need to leave.

Alexis: Not without my daughter.

Sonny: She's staying here because she's upstairs!

Reese: Alexis is right. You have to let her take Kristina.

Reese: Look, I do think Kristina would be safest here in the house with you, at least until we know what's going on. However, Ms. Davis is the parent with primary custody.

Sonny: I have unlimited visitation.

Reese: Yeah, unfortunately, the law favors Alexis in this situation, and if she wants to take Kristina, you can't stop her.

Alexis: Mr. Corinthos doesn't take into account the details of the law.

Carly: Alexis, you got what you want. Maybe you should just go.

Sonny: Right, right.

Alexis: You're right. I'm going to go upstairs and bring my daughter home.

Ric: You're not going anywhere except back to the hospital with me.

Jason: You'll be okay, Mike.

Sam: So I came around the corner and I saw these two guys roughing up Mike.

Mac: What'd you do?

Sam: Well, I yelled at them and I told them to stop, and then they knocked him unconscious and they came after me and they started to throw me around. They were big and they were getting the best of me, and I fought. I fought as hard as I could and I got scared and I started screaming, and that's when Jason showed up.

Mac: With a gun?

Sam: No, no, he got Mike's gun from behind the counter and he told them to leave and they did.

Mac: What's your side of the story?

Jason: I saw Sam struggling with these guys and I came in from the back, saw Mike on the ground. I didn't know if Mike was dead or just knocked out. Went behind the counter, grabbed the shotgun. That's when the guys took off.

Mac: Did you recognize the men?

Jason: No, they were wearing ski masks.

Mac: Any indication what the motive was? Simple robbery? Some sort of retaliation against you and Sonny?

Jason: Mac, I have no idea.

Mac: Did they say anything?

Jason: I told you all I know. You know what; I got to get her home. She's hurt, okay?

Mac: I have a few more questions, Jason.

Jason: Mac, you know where I live. I'll sign whatever papers you want, I'll fill out a report. I need to get her home or to the hospital.

Mac: All right, I'll be in touch.

Jason: Okay, thank you.

Emily: When I started flashing on Connor and the rape, I couldn't separate it out in my mind. You know, I just felt fear and I felt rage.

Lucky: The first step in dealing with it is to say it out loud.

Emily: You don't seem surprised.

Lucky: Well, I just -- I just --

Emily: You already knew, didn't you? Elizabeth told you.

Lucky: You know what? She didn't have to. I could see it in your eyes the night that it happened.

Emily: Don't give me that, Lucky. I -- I confided in Elizabeth. I told her not to tell a soul, and she went running straight to you.

Lucky: She was worried about you, Emily.

Emily: Okay. So you thought up a plan to play the supportive friend. I offered to bring you here to help you recover, and you thought, "Great, this is going to give me a chance to get her to admit it."

Lucky: No, that's not how it was, Emily.

Emily: This whole thing was a setup! Lucky, you've been lying to me from the moment you got here!

Lucky: No, that is not true. I just thought if you were with somebody that you could trust, then you would --

Emily: Don't -- don't even talk to me about trust. You've been manipulating me!

Lucky: Emily, listen, I'm your oldest friend.

Emily: Oh, yeah. Right, Lucky, some friend. God, I feel like such an idiot! I've been telling you all of these personal things, I've been rambling on about how you and I should maybe get together. Oh, my God, Elizabeth must have loved that one.

Lucky: Emily, Elizabeth was raped, too. She understands what it was like.

Emily: So you helped her heal?

Lucky: Yeah, that's right, so I just --

Emily: Right, so you both have been playing shrink, right, figuring out what to say, how to act?

Lucky: Emily, all we want is you to feel whole again.

Emily: Which is why you've been reporting every detail to Elizabeth behind my back, giving her updates on how poor, pathetic Emily is doing.

Lucky: Emily, you've got this all wrong.

Emily: No, you know what, save it, Lucky. I don't need this garbage and I don't need you.

Ric: Excuse me for interrupting. Max let me in. Alexis, did you forget that you were in a car accident, that you're recovering, that the doctors have expressly said that they wanted you to remain in the hospital overnight?

Alexis: The doctors said I was fine and it was just a precaution.

Ric: No, it was a warning that you were meant to take seriously, all right? This is already a high-risk pregnancy and you have been diagnosed with a heart condition.

Alexis: I'm very well aware of what I've been diagnosed with. It's a mild condition.

Ric: No, it's not a mild -- it's a heart murmur, okay? Did you hear the doctors? I did.

Alexis: My daughter is not safe in this house.

Ric: Alexis, you were asked to stay put. But instead you decide to come over here and go rounds with Sonny again. What, are you out of your mind?

Alexis: My daughter was kidnapped from this house.

Ric: I'm aware of that.

Alexis: It is not okay for her to be here and --

Ric: Sonny is taking every precaution! Kristina is not at risk. You are and so is the child you're carrying. Now, you were asked and told to stay in the hospital and rest. And that is exactly where I'm taking you. Sonny, thank you for watching Kristina. We'll pick her up in the morning.

Alexis: I will be right back to get my daughter. I need to talk to my husband in private.

Carly: I'm going upstairs to check on Morgan.

Reese: We still don't know who caused the hit-and-run.

Sonny: Alexis is right about one thing. It was more than a coincidence.

Reese: If you jump to conclusions and retaliate, you're just going to make things worse, Sonny.

Sonny: True.

Reese: And I have your word that you will do nothing?

Sonny: I just agreed it's a smart thing to do. It's best for my family.

[Phone rings]

Sonny: Hello?

Jason: The Sandovals hit Kelly’s. They beat up Mike and they attacked Sam.

Sonny: It's -- it's business. I got to get this call. Ahem.

[Door closes]

Sonny: How bad?

Jason: Mike has a concussion, took him to the hospital.

Sonny: Oh. How's Sam?

Jason: She, you know, tried to fight the guys off. She swears she's okay.

Sonny: You sure it was the Sandovals?

Jason: They told Sam they were using her to send a message, Sonny. They need to pay.

Sonny: They will. We're just going to have to set this up, all right? We're going to figure out the alibis, we're going to hit them when their guards are down, and we just got to make sure that it can't be traced back to us.

[Sonny hangs up]

Jason: Hey.

Sam: Hey.

Jason: So you okay?

Sam: Yeah, I ran a bath and I can't get my shirt or my coat off. My whole body's just really sore.

Jason: Okay. It's okay.

Sam: Ow.

Jason: I'm sorry. Am I hurting you?

Sam: No. No, what hurt was trying to get it off myself.

Jason: Okay, lift that arm out.

[Sam groans]

Jason: Got it?

Sam: Yeah.

Jason: You're banged up.

Sam: You know, Jason, I bruise easily.

Jason: Are you all right?

Sam: I thought so. I don't know, Jason, maybe it's a delayed reaction, but I just -- I saw these guys and they were attacking Mike and I got so mad. And then they came after me and I -- I felt this rush of anger. And I fought really hard, and then I kept fighting. I kept fighting even though I knew I had been trapped. I knew. I just --

Jason: It's okay. You're safe. You're safe now.

Sam: I know. It's just my whole body is wiped out, you know? And I don't know what I'm feeling right now, whether it's helplessness or relief or gratitude for being saved.

Jason: It's all right. I'm going to take care of you.

Emily: Elizabeth, how could you do this to me? You promised that you wouldn't tell Lucky, but you did.

Elizabeth: Um, no, I didn't say anything, I swear.

Emily: You and Lucky have been going behind my back for my own good, deciding that I'm such a disaster, that I need help? So Lucky agrees to play the noble friend and then goes running back to you to report every detail about poor, pathetic Emily. Well, look, I am done being your project.

Elizabeth: Okay, first of all, Lucky wasn't playing anything. He is the best friend you will ever have.

Emily: Not the way he's acting.

Elizabeth: You want the truth, Emily? All right, here's the truth. Yes, Lucky and I have both been worried about you, and Lucky thought he could help by staying with you. I was against the whole idea because I didn't think he could give you the help you needed.

Emily: Oh, that's right. Yeah, you're all for counseling and therapy.

Elizabeth: Oh, you bet I am. I have watched you push away every single person who cares about you, claiming you're dealing with the rape, but you're not. Honey, you are not eating, you're not sleeping, you are ruining --

Emily: Elizabeth, you have no idea how I'm doing.

Elizabeth: Oh, come on, Emily, it is obvious to everyone who's around you. You are giving Connor and the way he abused you all the power, and you have got to stop. I have begged you to get counseling. Well, now it's time. You want the nightmare to end? You're going to have to admit you need help.

Carly: Sonny? Kristina had a bad dream and she was asking for you.

Sonny: Oh. Get over here. Okay, you had a nightmare, huh? Well, I'm glad you came down. You know why? Because nightmares are very scary. You sit right here. Nightmares are very scary, aren't they? Well, let me tell you something, next time that you have a little nightmare and you feel afraid, you know what you got to do? Huh? Let me tell you what you got to do. You got to think of your brother Michael, the one I told you about who's in heaven, right? All you got to do is think of him, okay? Remember how good he used to make you feel? Remember he used to play with you, make you laugh, right? Well, guess what -- guess where he is. He's in heaven. Can you say "heaven"?

Kristina: Heaven.

Sonny: Yeah! And he's looking down on you. And anytime that you feel afraid, you know what you got to do? All you got to do is say, "Please, please, Michael, can you help me make my dreams, my bad dreams go away?" And he will make you happy. He will make you feel safe. You know why? I'll tell you why. Because he's your special guardian angel. Can you say "guardian angel"?

Kristina: Guardian angel.

Sonny: Yeah.

Ric: I swear to you, I've never met anybody who was so unbelievably reckless with their health. Please put this on.

Alexis: I cannot believe you undermined me in front of Sonny. And by the way, I apologize for being a protective parent.

Ric: Oh, don't play the martyr here, okay? You're just giving in to paranoia!

Alexis: Are you kidding me?

Ric: Sonny and his mob buddies are all of a sudden responsible for everything, from the buses not running to a liquor store getting robbed, and then Kristina’s all of a sudden in danger?

Alexis: Children are kidnapped; people are dropping like flies --

Ric: Alexis, come on! It could've been a simple hit-and-run!

Alexis: Agent Marshall seems to think it could've been a mob hit!

Ric: Agent Marshall? I don't give a damn about what Agent Marshall says! I am your husband! I'm also the district attorney, so my opinion matters just as much as hers, if not more!

Alexis: In your opinion, I should just lie there and do nothing?

Ric: That's right, for now.

Alexis: I'm not a broodmare, Ric. I can't just lie here and protect your offspring, because I have another child as well and I would like you to care about her as much as you do your own -- or don't you give a damn about her anymore?

Jason: It's okay. Sorry.

Sam: Ow.

Reese: How could you let Jason Morgan leave without further questioning?

Mac: He gave a complete statement.

Reese: And you believe him?

Mac: His story and Sam McCall’s were identical.

Reese: All right, Morgan has never been known for even cooperating with the police. If you would just take him down to the station --

Mac: The two perps left the manager unconscious and roughed up Sam McCall. She didn't need medical attention. I felt it was reasonable to let Jason take her home. Now, if I have to question him further, I have his address.

Reese: I think that you realize this isn't just a botched robbery.

Mac: We'll have more information when we I.D. the two assailants.

Elizabeth: Now do something with it. Instead of yelling at your friends, go see a counselor, talk about the rape with a professional therapist.

Emily: Okay, stop telling me what to do, Elizabeth!

Elizabeth: Oh, come on, Emily, I am just trying to help you. I know I sound like a broken record, but it's because I know counseling will help you.

Emily: You and Lucky analyze everything I do, everything I feel, and then you pronounce judgment like you have all the answers. Well, you don't, Elizabeth. I'm the one going through this, not you, so back off!

Elizabeth: What do you want me to do? You want me to just stand back and watch my best friend hurt herself even more?

Emily: Elizabeth, I've been a little on edge, okay? I haven't been my usual perky self, and I think that I'm entitled!

Elizabeth: Yes, yes, you are, of course, but it's not going to go away unless you get help.

Emily: Okay, just because you were raped and you dealt with it through counseling doesn't mean that it's the answer for me, too.

Elizabeth: You're wrong, Emily. Nobody gets through this alone.

Emily: Stop trying to shove your own experience down my throat. I don't need professional help, okay? What I need is an understanding friend. But you can't seem to manage that.

Lucky: Hey, Elizabeth. I just want to give you a heads-up. Emily knows that I realized about the rape and she's --

Emily: I talked to Elizabeth.

Lucky: Never mind. I'll talk to you later. How'd it go?

Emily: Oh, same as always. Elizabeth tells me how I should be handling the rape, and I get upset and defensive.

Lucky: Emily, she's your friend. She just wants to help.

Emily: I understand why Elizabeth brought you into this, okay? You helped her when she was raped. You understood. You supported her. She thinks that you can do the same for me.

Lucky: I am your friend, Emily. All I want to do is help in any way I can.

Emily: I know, Lucky, and I appreciate it.

Lucky: But Elizabeth has been through this.

Emily: Okay, see, that is the problem, okay? Elizabeth thinks that she can fit me into this cookie-cutter mold of how a woman should heal after being raped. But pushing me into therapy isn't what I need.

Lucky: Okay, any idea what would work?

Emily: Time. A little consideration. Look, stop assuming that you know what's best for me, okay? Just let me find my own way.

Lucky: I'll do whatever you want me to do.

Jason: It was -- it was dangerous for you to go out. I'm sorry. I should've warned you.

Sam: Jason, there's no way you could've known those guys were going to be there.

Jason: Anyone close to me or Sonny is a target.

Sam: But I'm home. I'm safe. And I love you so much.

Ric: The idea that I don't care about Kristina is ludicrous.

Alexis: You know what I meant. It's just that she's not your biological daughter.

Ric: Oh, no, right, she's Sonny's biological child. I'm the stepfather, and -- if blood relation's the only thing that matters to you, Alexis, she also happens to be my niece. I intend to raise Kristina and care for her and give her all of the love that I have to give, the same as I'm planning to give this child that you're carrying -- you know, the one I fought so desperately to save tonight, along with you, my wife.

Alexis: I'm very grateful for --

Ric: You're -- you're grateful? Did you hear yourself? You sound like you're in court. You sound like you're -- like you're thanking a witness for their testimony. Alexis, do you realize how long I tried to get you out of that car? I bargained with God. I pleaded with him to make sure that you and the baby were all right. I asked him if he did that that I'd never ask him for another thing ever in my life! You know, experiences like that change people, Alexis. You know, it usually brings them closer together. It makes them realize how precious life is and how -- how there is nothing more important than love and family. But that's not who you are.

Ric: I guess it's going to have to be enough, then, that -- that you and the baby are all right. Because you have nothing left to give.

Elizabeth: You ready to go? See you later. Oh, my goodness.

Ric: Hey, hey. Need a little help there?

Elizabeth: Hey! No, I'm fine. I've got it.

Ric: Okay.

Elizabeth: All right, who am I kidding? Here you go.

Ric: Okay. Whoa. What, you got a couple of bricks in here?

Elizabeth: No, but just about everything else. I mean, books, toys, bottles, whatever it takes in case we get stranded. Huh, cam? Because Mommy's always prepared.

Ric: Well, you are a good mother, Elizabeth.

Elizabeth: Thanks. Try an exhausted one right now. Cameron's in that cruising stage where he's getting himself up onto furniture and he takes a couple steps and he explores things and he touches everything.

Ric: Is that right? I guess it's pretty scary when you realize what they can get into, huh?

Elizabeth: Tell me about it. This is the world's most curious child.

Ric: Is that right?

Elizabeth: Yeah.

Ric: Well, I hear that's a sign of intelligence.

Elizabeth: Really?

Ric: Really.

Elizabeth: Well, it looks like I have a genius on my hands. You should see my house. I've gated the doorways, I've covered the plugs. I've installed every safety device possible. But after that, you just kind of have to stand back and let him go.

Ric: Yeah. You ever get the feeling that you want to, I don't know, protect his safety, even to the point of smothering him?

Elizabeth: Not really. It's just so amazing watching them figure out the world around them. You know, falling down, getting up, learning, starting over.

Ric: Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be.

Sonny: Thank you for backing me up with Alexis.

Carly: You're welcome.

Sonny: I know you have your own misgivings, and you have every right to, I guess, have that.

Carly: Sonny, you are a loving father. And I never doubt that.

Sonny: There are things I can't give my kids that other dads can. You know, like, just everyday things. Going outside without thinking ahead, planning ahead, playing catch with my little boy by ourselves without bodyguards.

Carly: You know, Sonny, Michael loved going to the park with you. I mean, don't you remember when he was so little? You would take him there and you'd put him on the swings and he would ask you to just push him higher and higher, and you'd do it over and over again. You were so patient.

Sonny: There was one time I pushed him so -- I must have pushed him for about an hour. He was laughing. His little legs were pumping.

Carly: Yeah.

Carly: Sonny, let's do something. Let's do something for Michael. Let's have some kind of memorial to him, something to honor the way that he lived instead of the way that he died.

Officer: We found a witness who identified one of Sam McCall’s attackers. Joey Mott.

Mac: Thanks.

Reese: I'll call you back.

Mac: You know him?

Reese: He works for the Sandoval crime family.

Carly: You know, the playground in the park was Michael’s favorite. And all the equipment they have now -- it's all old, it's all rusty. Let's make a donation, okay, to the park so they can build a new playground and they can get one of those -- those great new things with slides and swings and, you know, a bridge to go across, just for Michael.

Sonny: That would be a great tribute to Michael.
