Carly: Let go.

Logan: You don't tell me what to do. If Lulu and I want to be together, that's our business, and you'll stay the hell out of it.

Carly: I'm going to tell you one more time -- you let go of me, or you're not going to live long enough to say goodbye to Lulu.

Lulu: You live in the middle of nowhere, Johnny. Every time you step foot outside your father's house, there are two of his men right behind you.

Johnny: You can't be too careful.

Lulu: There is a difference between caution and keeping you on a leash. No wonder you take off so much. If I lived here, I would make a run for it, too.

Johnny: I'm sure you would.

Lulu: Look, I get that your father's business is very dangerous, but that doesn't give him a right to keep you as a prisoner. You need to start living life on your own terms.

Johnny: Here.

Lulu: What is that for?

Johnny: You can go now.

Ric: Well, I'm going to hazard a guess and say that my father didn't just stop in here for coffee. You dragged him in off the street, maybe at gunpoint? That would constitute a crime. If you want to press charges, I'd be more than happy to prosecute them.

Anthony: I have a wonderful garden filled with roses, such beautiful flowers. And, you know, if you give them the proper care and attention, they can bloom past the first frost. Do you keep roses, Mr. Corinthos?

Sonny: I'm -- I'm here to discuss the situation in Port Charles.

Anthony: Screw Port Charles! There's a frost coming! Everything will be dying off soon!

Patrick: You and Lucky may be getting a divorce, but you still share two kids together. You can't honestly think this is a good idea for Lucky to help Robin have a child?

Elizabeth: If Robin wants to have a baby and Lucky's willing to help her, then that's his decision. It has nothing to do with me.

Patrick: Well, maybe not, but it has everything to do with your two kids. If Lucky agrees to help Robin, that baby is going to be Cam and Jake’s little brother or sister. They're not going to grow up together -- if Robin has her way, they probably won't even know each other. She's bound and determined to do this on her own.

Elizabeth: Well, being a single mother is hard, not impossible. People do it every day.

Patrick: I understand that, but it doesn't mean Robin should.

Elizabeth: If you have a problem with this, maybe you need to take it up with her.

Lucky: Yeah, I know this may be none of my business, but why aren't you asking Patrick to be the father of your baby?

Robin: Uh -- Patrick and I broke up.

Lucky: I'm sorry. I --

Robin: Don't be. Really, it's -- it's just -- it better this way. See, Patrick didn't want children, and because being a mother isn't something that I'm willing to give up, I had to give up Patrick instead.

Lucky: That couldn't be easy.

Robin: It took me a really long time to let my guard down with Patrick. But when I finally did, I fell completely in love with him. The truth is I'm still in love with him, but Patrick is not an option anymore. I've decided that I can do this on my own – well, not completely on my own, obviously, so that's why I'm asking you for your help.

Lucky: Why me?

Robin: We've known each other almost our whole lives. You've always been a good friend. And judging from Jake, you make beautiful babies. I would just like you to at least think about it.

Logan: You want to make threats? You go right ahead.

Carly: You got exactly two seconds to let me go, or I call Jason, I tell him what you've done, and he blows your head off.

Logan: What are you doing?

Carly: I'm calling Jason.

Logan: Look, Carly, listen, I was out of line. I should not have grabbed you like that, okay?

Carly: No, you shouldn't have.

Logan: Look, I'm just worried about Lulu, all right? She's not answering her phone, no one's seen her since last night -- it's like she just disappeared.

Carly: Or she's wised up!

Logan: L get that you don't like me, okay? Listen to me. I care a lot about her.

Carly: Yeah, you proved that by jumping into bed with Maxie.

Logan: I was an idiot.

Carly: You're a liar, and you're a cheater, and after what you just pulled, I'm more convinced than ever that you don't belong anywhere near Lulu.

Trevor: Oh, my, it'd be very tempting to send you to prison. But in the end, I don't think it's worth the time to press charges. Because, you see, any competent lawyer could get the case thrown out of court for lack of evidence.

Ric: Well, charging Jason with assault would get him off the street.

Trevor: Yeah, an hour or so -- unless you trump up murder charges while Mr. Morgan is down at the precinct.

Ric: The last time Jason was charged with murder, it wasn't fabricated. He walked into Lorenzo Alcazar's home, shot him in cold blood, and then he dumped his body in the harbor.

Trevor: Well, you couldn't make that stick in open court. So unless you want to be next, I would suggest that you stop antagonizing Mr. Morgan. Because it seems to me he could put a bullet in both of us. But then again, you know, there would be a terrible bloody mess on the boss' floor, and you wouldn't have the time to clean it up with such short notice. So, come on, Ric, let's go.

Ric: No, I'm going to stick around for a while. I have a few more questions for Mr. Morgan.

Sonny: I'm -- I'm just here to talk. Your people have been moving into my territory. Is that -- is that happening without your knowledge?

Anthony: I know all about it, Mr. Corinthos -- Port Charles is mine.

Sonny: That's going to be a problem.

Anthony: There's a simple solution.

Sonny: Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Anthony: Your turn.

Sonny: I'm not doing this – I’m not doing this game right now.

Anthony: I'm offering you a possible future, take it.

Sonny: I don't want a future. Okay, okay, give me -- I'll take the gun.

Sonny: I don't play games.

Anthony: "I don't play games. I don't play games!" You'll play with me!

Kate: Jax, I'm sorry I'm late. This is not at all how I'm accustomed to doing business.

Jax: No, it's fine. I was running late myself.

Kate: I'm not sure I believe you, you're always so gallant.

Jax: Yes -- with all the good it does me.

Kate: Are you okay?

Jax: I'm sorry, I should've called. You know, I -- I should've canceled because I'm in no condition to give you feedback on your proposal.

Kate: Well, that's all right. We can reschedule -- assuming you're still interested in the project?

Jax: Oh, of course I'm still interested. Why wouldn't I be? I mean, you've been a leader in the fashion industry for years. Any magazine that you create will be a success.

Kate: Well, that's very flattering.

Jax: I never flatter about business. But I want to give this project my full attention, which is why I would like to reschedule.

Kate: Okay. I'll just call your office and set up another time.

Jax: Great.

Kate: Okay.

Jax: Thank you.

Kate: Jax, um, I don't mean to -- are you -- are you meeting someone else?

Jax: No, no. Why -- why do you ask?

Kate: Look, if I just promise not to talk about magazines, and we can talk about art or travel or -- or why anyone would think surfing is a good idea for a hobby, if I -- could I just, um, stay here with you?

Logan: Look, when I made that deal with Maxie, I had no idea how wonderful or amazing Lulu was or how much I actually cared about her. She really is the best thing that's ever happened to me, and I wanted to come clean with Lulu about the bet. But I knew if I did, she'd never speak with me again, and I couldn't risk losing her.

Carly: So you're not only a jerk, you're a coward. A real man would own up to his mistakes and face the consequences.

Logan: Look, Carly, I know I've handled things badly, but Lulu's willing to give me another chance, all right? I'm not going to screw that up. I swear on my life I'm never going to hurt that girl again.

Carly: You're damn right you're not going to because I'm not going to let you get anywhere near

Logan: You haven't heard a single word I've said, have you?

Carly: I hear a lot of excuses, okay, so get the hell out of my house before I have you removed one piece at a time.

Lulu: I wouldn't want to bore you, so don't worry, you'll never have to see me again.

Johnny: Don't forget your cash.

Lulu: I don't want your money -- correction -- your big, scary dad's money. Just because he's an overprotective freak doesn't excuse the way you treat people.

Johnny: You hitched a ride with me, Lulu, and now you're trying to make it out to be more than it was.

Lulu: For the record, you're the one who pursued me.

Johnny: I didn't make you get in the car.

Lulu: Oh -- you know what? Everyone warned me that you're crazy, and it turns out they're right. Let's go, Milo.

Milo: With pleasure.

Ric: So I hear Johnny Zacchara's paid several visits to Port Charles recently -- and he's reputed for being unstable and very violent. What are the chances that he's responsible for Leticia’s murder?

Jason: I got nothing to say without my attorney.

Ric: I see. Still refusing to cooperate with law enforcement, even though we're trying to solve the murder of an innocent woman whose only crime was agreeing to work for Sonny. You know, Leticia raised Michael and Morgan from the time they were born. She loved and cared for those children as if they were her own, and what'd she get for it, hmm? A phone cord wrapped around her neck. If Johnny Zacchara is responsible for Leticia’s murder, Jason, then he needs to be put in prison before he can do it to somebody else. And if you have any information, I would appreciate it if you would tell me.

Jason: Why don't you call Diane -- you got her number?

Ric: Okay, you know what? You don't speak for yourself, okay, you certainly don't think for yourself, and God knows you don't make a move unless Sonny tells you to -- I mean, look what happened tonight. You wanted to kill both me and my father, but you couldn't take action unless Sonny gave you the approval.

Jason: Like I said, I got nothing to say to you.

Ric: As a mob enforcer, you have a reputation for being a well-trained, highly feared killing machine. But the only problem is that you can't pull the trigger unless Sonny orders you to. That makes you nothing more than a trained guard dog.

[Door opens and closes]

Anthony: This is your one last chance, Mr. Corinthos. Play the game, or pay with the lives of everyone you love.

Sonny: I didn't come here to disturb you, I came --

Anthony: You don't think I know what you've done? You stole my son! He's all I have left in the world, and you tried to take him away from me! I'm going to take your sons away. I'm going to slit their throats from ear to ear, and I'm going to make you watch while they bleed.

Anthony: I have to talk to the gardener. The roses need to be pruned before the weather turns.

Sonny: Max -- Max, come on.

Patrick: Okay, I'm trying to get Robin to understand that having a baby is a huge, life-changing decision. You don't just wake up one day and decide to get pregnant.

Elizabeth: Robin is not an impulsive person. You know she wouldn't make a decision like this without thinking it through.

Patrick: See, that's the problem, Elizabeth -- I don't believe she's thinking. She's reacting -- or, in this case, overreacting -- to our breakup.

Elizabeth: Sometimes it takes a breakup to put things into perspective. You're forced to take stock of your life and then you begin to realize what's really important. And maybe Robin took a long, hard look and decided that being a mother is what really matters to her.

Patrick: If Robin wants to be a mother, that's fine -- adopt a child that really needs a home. Don't chase every guy around town looking for sperm to have a baby.

Elizabeth: How she chooses to become a mother is up to her.

Patrick: Elizabeth, you can't really think this is a good idea, that she's asking Lucky for help?

Elizabeth: I don't get a say in what Lucky does. My marriage is over, and I'm focusing on the future. And if that's what Robin is doing, then who are we to tell her she's wrong?

Lucky: I am honored that you would even think to ask me to be your child's father.

Robin: You don't want to do it.

Lucky: It --

Robin: It's okay. I understand.

Lucky: Elizabeth and I, we're going through a messy divorce and the kids are in the middle of it. I'm not even allowed to see Cameron and Jake at all.

Robin: Oh, my God, Lucky, I'm so sorry, I had no idea.

Lucky: It's okay. It's only been a few hours and it's driving me crazy. That's -- that's how I know I just couldn't help father a child and not be a part of it. And since that's what it sounds like you want me to do, I don't think I'll be able to help.

Jax: I'm sorry, I might be misinterpreting this but, um, are you asking if -- I -- I thought that you were involved with -- with Sonny.

Kate: Yes, I'm -- well --

Jax: Like I said -- okay, okay, I'm sorry --

Kate: No, no, no. Okay, that's the problem -- Sonny has a --

Jax: Oh.

Kate: "Situation" --

Jax: Right.

Kate: And I can't go into the details -- Jax, I know. It's absurd that I'm -- I'm making myself complicit in God knows what by keeping Sonny's secrets. It --

Jax: Okay, please don't take this the wrong way, but Sonny does that with all his women.

Kate: I'm not one of Sonny's "women."

Jax: Of course. Yeah.

Kate: Yeah, I'm Kate Howard, I actually have a life and a career -- which I fully intend to revive, which is why I'm soliciting you -- which is why I -- I really shouldn't be telling you any of this.

Jax: Oh, no, no, please, please. You can tell me anything you want, because I really would appreciate the distraction.

Kate: Okay, then -- so we're in the same boat, because I could use the distraction, too, to keep my mind off of Sonny's "event." And, anyway, um, why don't you tell me about surfing.

Jax: Surfing?

Kate: Yeah.

Jax: Well, okay, that's one of my favorite things to do. First, you have to be a go swimmer, which I don't -- actually, I recall you're not that good at it, are you?

Kate: Uh -- it's one of those things I never got around to learning.

Jax: Yeah. Carly -- she's a good swimmer. She grew up in Florida and spent the summers on the beaches. Um -- she never surfed, but we went surfing on our honeymoon for the first time -- really fun.

Kate: Did something -- did something happen with you and Carly? Look, you just told me I could tell you anything, and I assure you it goes both ways.

[Jax sighs]

Jax: I want to have a baby, and I just found out tonight that it might never happen.

Lulu: Carly?

Carly: Hold on. Yeah, she just walked in. Okay, bye. Logan had me worried sick about you.

Lulu: When did you see Logan?

Carly: A few minutes ago. He was worried because you didn't answer your phone all night.

Lulu: Well, there wasn't much cell reception at the cabin.

Carly: "The cabin"?

Lulu: It's a long story.

[Lulu scoffs]

Lulu: I hitched a ride with Johnny; we ended up in the mountains.

Carly: Johnny Zacchara is dangerous. Why would you get in the car with him again?

Lulu: Save the lecture -- I know, it was stupid.

Carly: Did he hurt you?

Lulu: No -- his father's men could've been a little gentler when dragging me back to the creepy house.

Carly: Anthony Zacchara's men grabbed you?

Lulu: It was just so that Johnny would come home. Once he did, they let me go.

Carly: Did you see his father there?

Lulu: I didn't have time to see much of anything -- Johnny was too busy kicking me off the property. But from what I could see, there was a lot of weird stuff going on over there.

Anthony: Get out!

Trevor: Anthony? What is the problem?

Anthony: He's gone.

Trevor: Who?

Anthony: Johnny -- they took him again. I want my son. What the hell have y my son? Where is he?

Johnny: I'm right here.

Anthony: You're back.

Johnny: Do you want something?

Anthony: You have to be more careful, Johnny. You're all I have left of her. She loved roses -- white, pink -- but red -- red were here favorites -- deep red like blood.

Trevor: John, you need to sit with him for a while, it calms him down.

Johnny: You're thinking if he gets upset again, it might ruin your plans.

Trevor: No, no, no, no. If your father gets upset, people tend to die.

Jason: Okay, I picked up Trevor just like you asked. I had him waiting here, Ric shows up, of course --

Sonny: We got -- we got a bigger problem than Ric. Zacchara is -- is crazy. I'm -- I'm talking out of his mind, and I'm not just talking irrational. He -- he is insane. One minute he's talking about roses, the next minute he's talking about coming after my family.

Jason: Are you sure it wasn't an act?

Sonny: No, no, no, no, it's real. Trevor has not wanted me to -- to see him because he doesn't want the truth to come out. Okay, I just thought that Trevor was a mouthpiece, but he -- he's -- he's been running Zacchara's organization in his name. The real enemy here is Trevor Lansing.

Elizabeth: It's pretty obvious you're not over Robin yet, and somehow I seriously doubt she found a way to get over you. If the love is still there, why not try to work things out?

Patrick: I will always love Robin and want the best for her. But I'm not it.

Elizabeth: How do you know?

Patrick: Because she told me in no uncertain terms that she wants a family, and I don’t.

Elizabeth: Oh. Is the thought of committing to one person for the rest of your life really that scary?

Patrick: Surprisingly, commitment is not the problem. Robin and I were together for a year and a half. If this whole baby thing didn't happen, we'd still be together. We broke up because we have fundamentally different views of what we want out of life. Now, if I was to have a baby with her to try and hold on to a relationship, that wouldn't be fair to anyone, most of all the child. Elizabeth, I just -- I don't think I'm father material.

Elizabeth: That's what most men say until the moment they hold their first child.

Patrick: I like my life the way it is. Do I wish Robin was in it? Absolutely. But realistically, I know that that can't happen. So I have to try and find a way to accept that I can love someone and want to be with them, but for whatever reason, we can't share a life together.

Elizabeth: If you figure out how to make peace with that, will you let me know?

Carly: Okay, I want you to tell me everything, starting with what you were doing with Johnny up in the mountains.

Lulu: A lot has happened since we last talked -- not Johnny, but with Logan, too.

Carly: So he wasn't just running his mouth about you forgiving him, you -- he wasn't making that up?

Lulu: Yeah, we agreed to try again.

Carly: Why?

Lulu: Because I made a deal with Scott Baldwin. Um, he said that he would drop the charges against my dad and give guardianship of my mom back over to Nikolas if I gave Logan a second chance.

Carly: That's not a deal, Lulu, that's blackmail.

Lulu: You sound exactly like my dad. He thinks that Scott’s really using me, and this is all about him trying to get back at my dad.

Carly: I can't believe I'm going to side with your father, but no one knows Scott better than your father, and if Luke thinks that he has some kind of an agenda he probably does.

Lulu: Scott feels bad about bailing on Logan, and he's trying to score points any way that he can.

Carly: Because Scott was a deadbeat dad doesn't mean it's up to you to fix it.

Lulu: The truth is I've been looking for an excuse to try again with Logan.

Carly: Then what were you doing with Johnny up at the cabin?

Lulu: Ugh. I was trying to explain to my dad why I care about Logan, he basically made me fee a fool. So I started second-guessing myself, and the more I tried to make sense of it, the more confused I got, so I took off, and I ran into Johnny.

Carly: You're second-guessing yourself because you know that Logan is a lying, unfaithful jerk, and if you get back together with him, he is just going to break your heart again.

Lulu: You don't know Logan like I do.

Carly: I know when he doesn't get what he wants, he loses it, just like he did with me today.

Lulu: What are you talking about?

Carly: He busted in my house looking for you, and when I told him to get out, he grabbed me. I'm telling you, the sooner you get rid of this guy, the happier you will be.

Trevor: John -- John, do you want to destroy everything that your father's built up by allowing Sonny Corinthos to see him like this?

Johnny: It's his to destroy, remember that.

Trevor: No, John, it's going to be "yours" one day. So now I got to clean it up for both of you, so, please, a little help would be nice. No more visits to Lulu Spencer.

Johnny: You can relax. I made sure Lulu will never want to see me again.

Trevor: And that's a wise choice. The last thing you want your father to find out is why you have been taking off.

Johnny: Lulu's name better not come up anywhere near my father.

Trevor: Johnny, Johnny. You want Lulu to be safe? Stay home. Don't make your father come looking for you.

Sonny: From what I hear, Zacchara's always been a crazy, ruthless bastard, okay, who's been hanging on by a thread. If his wife was murdered, that could've been enough to make him snap.

Jason: And when he did, Trevor was there to pick up the pieces.

Sonny: Right, and Trevor, you know, got him out of the city, left him in Crimson Pointe, had somebody watching him 24 hours. Hey, you know what? If nobody knows that Zacchara's crazy, then Trevor can run things in his name.

Jason: And he has complete deniability.

Sonny: It's the perfect -- it's the perfect setup. Trevor can call the shots, and, you know, Zacchara can take blame for the fallout.

Jason: Oh, man, you said Anthony made some threats. What -- what?

Sonny: He's -- he's totally and criminally insane, and there's no doubt in my mind that if he got loose, he would make good on his promise and come after my family.

Logan: I'm glad you called.

Lulu: Sorry, I didn't mean to take off without telling you.

Logan: What's wrong? Did I do something to upset you?

Lulu: I -- no, I just -- needed time to think. I have so many voices in my head, I don't know which one is mine anymore.

Logan: Let me guess -- they're all saying "get rid of Logan."

Lulu: No, not all of them.

Logan: So where were you?

Lulu: I -- um -- went up to the mountains for the night, and then when I came back, I stopped by Carly’s, and she said stuff got kind of ugly with the two of you?

Logan: Yeah, they did. I realized I don't -- um -- I don't think we're going to work after all.

Sonny: Focus is on Trevor Lansing. If you see Johnny Zacchara around town, you leave him alone.

Milo: What if he's with Lulu?

Sonny: Then you take her home. I don't want you to lay a hand on Johnny Zacchara. You understand what I'm saying?

Milo: Yes, I do, Mr. C.

Sonny: You got your tail -- the tail on Trevor?

Max: They've been on him all week.

Sonny: Okay, I want you to find him, bring him here. Okay?

Max: Sure, boss. Anything -- anything else?

Sonny: Yeah, I want you to put some more guards on -- on Carly and the boys.

Max: Jax already has around-the-clock --

Sonny: I don't care what Jax wants. Zacchara's threatening them. For all I know, he put a hit out on Michael and Morgan, and Leticia got killed instead. I can't take any more chances.

Max: Of course not. Uh -- just so you know, Mrs. C isn't going to like this very much.

Sonny: You know what, Max? She can get in my face all she wants. But at least I know she's alive.

Carly: Oh, Jason, thank got you're here. I have so much to tell you, starting with Lulu -- you'll never believe what she did this time.

Jason: No, no, no, no, you need to -- you need to let me go first, it's important. I checked on Michael and Morgan, and they're -- they're fine.

Carly: Why wouldn't they be fine?

Jason: Because Sonny met with Anthony Zacchara today.

Carly: Did he see Lulu there? Because she was --

Jason: No -- please, Carly, you need to listen to me. Sonny says that Anthony is crazy, and I'm -- I'm talking totally insane. He threatened to kill Michael and Morgan.

Carly: You're not going to let that happen.

Jason: No, Zacchara is basically a prisoner in his own home, there's guards on him 24/7, he has no real power anymore.

Carly: Then why are you scaring me like this?

JasonL Because Sonny says if this guy got loose, might make good on his word. You're -- you're their mother, you need to know the danger exists.

Carly: What are you going to do about this?

Jason: I -- it's complicated. Sonny says the place is like a fortress, it would be really hard to get to Zacchara, and nobody knows the guy's crazy -- Trevor's been covering for him for years. So it would look like that Sonny went in, killed his rival in his own home without being provoked.

Carly: And then someone would turn around and do that to Sonny.

Jason: Right. I mean, it's just -- it's just going to take time to deal with Zacchara. I mean, that doesn't mean you and the boys need to change how you live. But you -- you need to be careful this time.

Carly: If that son of a bitch comes near my kids, I'll kill him myself.

Jason: I'm -- I'm going to take care of it. Not as soon as I would like, but I will.

Carly: I want you to tell me everything that's happened. Start from the beginning so I can wrap my brain around this, Jason.

Jason: It's just business. Most of it's business --

Carly: If Anthony Zacchara is trying to kill my kids, then I get to know why.

Jax: You know, I was never in a hurry to have kids. I always thought that it would just happen one day.

Kate: Hmm.

Jax: A few years ago, I was involved with a surrogacy -- that didn't turn out too well. Then I married Carly. And I have two great stepsons, but I would like another child -- preferably a girl. But I'm not picky, you know.

Kate: And Carly disagrees?

Jax: She's afraid that she'll have difficulty getting pregnant, which will then put a strain on our marriage.

Kate: Well, she has a point. I've known a few marriages who have broken up over fertility issues.

Jax: Really?

Kate: Ironically, usually it's -- it's the woman who wants to do it because, you know, she has a career, she feels like her time is running out, and so they get on the fertility bandwagon and -- they got the shots and the temperature testing, and, sadly, even sometimes when there is a baby, it's too late, the marriage is already falling apart.

Jax: Right, so you're saying I should let it go?

Kate: What I'm saying is that my advice and a $1.70 will get you a cup of coffee.

Jax: No, no, come on, I still want to hear it.

Kate: Jax, I don't like Carly very much, but that doesn't mean that I'm oblivious to her strengths. I think in time that Carly will realize that having a baby with her husband is worth the emotional upheaval -- after all, Carly does seem to thrive on emotional upheaval.

Jax: So you're saying I should just wait her out?

Kate: I think that Carly will realize that she does want to have a baby with you, I think you just need to give her some time to realize it.

Patrick: One more question. Is that okay?

Elizabeth: Ask away.

Patrick: If you had to do it all over again, would you make it work with Lucky? Or would you have let of it sooner?

Elizabeth: Uh -- as much as I care about Lucky, I should've never remarried him.

Patrick: Why did you?

Elizabeth: He checked himself into rehab, he got clean so he could get his family back -- I wanted to support him.

Patrick: Yeah.

Elizabeth: And I wanted our family and our love to come back, too. But I remarried him even though my feelings had changed, and if I'd been honest from the start, I could've saved us both a lot of pain.

Patrick: So you think a clean break is best?

Elizabeth: I can't speak for anyone else. I wasn't in love with Lucky; you can't say that about Robin. And until you can, I don't think you'll ever be able to make a clean break.

Patrick: Can you tell me when Mr. Westmoreland's labs are back, please?

Elizabeth: Yes.

Patrick: Thank you.

Robin: I'm sure Patrick just gave you an earful of my plans to have a baby, but don't worry. Lucky won't be making a contribution -- he turned me down. Go ahead, say it. I mean, I -- I asked the man who is technically still your husband to be the father of my child. You have every right to tell me how you feel about that -- and, believe me, can't be any worse than what Carly said when I asked Jax.

Elizabeth: You asked Jax?

Robin: And Leo. But I'm 0-3 for potential fathers -- Patrick will be happy to hear that. I know how that must sound. It's really not that way. See, I made a list of men, mainly friends, who had qualities that I would like to pass on to a child.

Elizabeth: You don't have to explain.

Robin: Seems like that's all I've been doing lately. I keep having to defend why I want to have a child and raise it on my own.

Elizabeth: Okay, not that my opinion matters, but if you want to have a baby, I think you should.

Robin: Thank you.

Elizabeth: One word of advice -- use a sperm bank, not a friend.

Robin: Why?

Elizabeth: Even with the best of intentions, I seriously doubt any guy on your list will be able to walk away from his own child once it's born.

Lulu: You want to break up with me when we're technically not together?

Logan: All I want is for you to be happy. There's not a chance of that happening with your family, your friends, and everyone else constantly coming down on you for being with me.

Lulu: Since when do you care what people think?

Logan: I'm sorry, okay? I just don't want to set myself up to be angry all the time. And I definitely don't want to go off on somebody else like I did with Carly today.

Lulu: What was that about anyway?

Logan: I just -- she told me to stay away from you.

Lulu: Well, that's not Carly’s call to make.

Logan: Well, I still shouldn't have grabbed her. I mean, that's proof that this is a bad idea. You would not even be here standing, talking to me right now if Baldwin hadn't scammed you into giving me a second chance.

Lulu: I know what I'm doing.

Logan: Look, you were trying to take care of your parents. I don't blame you for that. But, Lulu, Baldwin signed the papers. You're not obligated to him, me, or anybody else. You're free to be with whoever you want.

Handler: Texting your girlfriend?

Johnny: You shouldn't have brought Lulu here.

Handler: Yeah? Well, you shouldn't have ran off. But I guess we know where to find you when you do.

Carly: Okay, listen to me. Lulu was here.  She took off with Johnny Zacchara again, and then Zacchara's men picked her up. She was in the Zacchara house.

Jason: Yeah, as soon as Sonny got there, he had her sent home.

Carly: I don't understand. If Anthony’s not in charge, how can he have his men pick her up?

Jason: Okay, Trevor Lansing is running the Zacchara organization. He can only do that by hiding the fact that Anthony is absolutely crazy.

Carly: So Trevor had Lulu picked up?

Jason: Right, so Johnny would come back home. Anthony is obsessed with his son, and you know what? Trevor uses Johnny to keep Anthony calm and manageable.

Carly: So all those trips to Port Charles was just so Johnny could get away from his crazy father?

Jason: Right. And if anything happens to Johnny, Trevor loses all control over Anthony.

Carly: Which explains why Trevor was so weirdly overprotective of Johnny, telling me to keep Lulu away from him. Huh. You know, he made Johnny out to be the crazy one, when Anthony’s the nut job, and Johnny's basically in the unfortunate position of being a bargaining chip.

Jason: Yeah, pretty much.

Carly: Well, it's not like Johnny's completely normal. I mean, he's a little off. Why wouldn't he be? You know, he's the son of a mob boss, been around violence his whole life. You sure Michael and Morgan are okay?

Jason: Well, I can check with the guards again if you want.

Carly: No, no, I'm just thinking how Johnny is basically a hostage for his father. I don't want that to happen to Michael and Morgan.

Trevor: You son of -- this is the last time that I get picked up by your men.

Sonny: You just might want to get your own bodyguards then, right? But that might send out a message that you're not just Anthony Zacchara's mouthpiece. And that would ruin the arrangement you've worked so hard to keep quiet. You guys go ahead and go, because I got some business to take care of. It's a nice little setup you got going there, Trevor.

[Door closes]

Sonny: Zacchara's out of his mind, so you step in and run his organization. You get all the power, none of the blame, and I'm sure you found a way to make him think that he's calling the shots. Every threat you make, every hit that you order, he thinks it's coming from him, but I sure as hell know better. And I want you to know that that threat -- for me to step aside, unless my family's going to pay? That came from you. Now, I want to give you my answer.

>> On the next "General Hospital" --

Jason: Sonny knows that Trevor's running the organization. It's possible Trevor might back off.

Sonny: Port Charles is mine.

Trevor: What makes you think you have a choice?

Lucky: Welcome home.
