Nadine: Who would have thunk it? Nadine Crowell from Ohio taking on the Equinox Corporation and actually winning.

Nikolas: Well, not just Equinox. You've opened the eyes of the senate subcommittee as well.

Nadine: You know, I can actually feel Aunt Raylene smiling down on me. If she knew that her invention was being used to make weapons, she never would have licensed it to the Equinox Corporation. Oh, do you really think that the IRS will drop their audit of me?

Nikolas: Well, the senators promised that they would take care of everything, so --

Nadine: You're right. Those big bullies have officially been stopped. I guess our work here is done.

Nikolas: Well, we still have to celebrate.

Nadine: Oh, right.

Claudia: Sonny, it's a great big pie. You can have it all to yourself as soon as you get rid of Jason.

Sonny: And you as my wife get to share the power. Imagine, you get to lord that over your father, who you hate so much.

Claudia: Yeah, I imagine that quite a lot, actually.

Sonny: So you think it's a good thing, being at my right hand? Good place to run things?

Diane: No, Bernie, it's like talking to a brick wall. Make that two brick walls. I can't get any response. Bernie, just find out everything you can and get back to me.

Maxie: Don't worry, Spinelli. We're going to get you out of here.

Spinelli: The situation bears a striking resemblance to the seventh pit of hell, sans the snakes, of course.

Maxie: Well, Jason's going to fix it. You know he will.

Jason: You want to come after me? You come after me directly, and you leave Spinelli out of it.

Agent Rayner: We want Sonny Corinthos and Anthony Zacchara, and you're going to give them to us. And unless you cooperate, your friend Spinelli goes away for life.

[Baby crying]

Patrick: Robin? Hey, Emma’s crying. Hey. I'll get her.

Robin: All right, fine. I'll unpack these, then.

Patrick: Robin, we can't keep doing this.

Nadine: I couldn't have done any of this without you.

Nikolas: Nah. I know you don't believe me, but I thought that you handled yourself beautifully in that room. You were articulate and convincing.

Nadine: You're right, I don't believe you.

Nikolas: Well, it's not just me. Why would the transition team have called you on it?

Nadine: My stomach does flip-flops just thinking of that call. I mean, don't they have more important things to be dealing with right now?

Nikolas: No, obviously, you made quite the impression. Word travels quickly in the beltway. Someone wants to hear from the girl who couldn't be bought by Equinox.

Nadine: Yeah, I have high hopes for the incoming administration. It'd be really cool to be able to help them in some way.

Nikolas: Yeah, what if -- what if they were to offer you something like a position? What would you do?

Claudia: You need me, Sonny. You hate to admit it, and you hate it, but it's the truth.

Sonny: I have not needed anybody since I was 15 years old, so if you think that just because politics landed you in this house that you –

[Knock on door]

Max: Boss, Mr. Zacchara is here to see you right now.

Sonny: Yeah.

Max: Come on in.

Claudia: Hi, Daddy.

Anthony: You need to mind your own business. What goes on between me and my son has nothing to do with you.

Claudia: Daddy, Johnny was getting --

Anthony: Shut up. This is between me and Sonny. I was about to get Johnny back home, and you blew it. And then to add insult to injury, today I lost a valuable shipment.

Sonny: You lost a shipment? You're just along for the ride, Anthony. Shipments don't belong to you anymore.

Anthony: What a Zacchara giveth, a Zacchara can taketh away.

Sonny: You want to change our agreement?

Anthony: You're running out of rope, my friend. You got 24 hours to take care of what has to be done.

Sonny: I do things on my time table.

Anthony: Retaliate! You have to kill Morgan. It's the code we live by in our business. You cut off Jason's head and leave it on a post to rot.

Agent Rayner: The bureau doesn't have to press charges. Play this smart, and we can archive the evidence, and Damian Spinelli can walk out of here tonight a free man. All you have to do is provide us with the information we need on Corinthos and Zacchara.

Diane: This is ridiculous. God only knows what they are in there talking to Jason about without benefit of council. Don't panic, Mr. Grasshopper. I'm quite certain that you are not the FBI’s primary target.

Maxie: You have got to get him out of here.

Diane: Okay, look, is there anything that you haven't told me that you could tell me, if you could say it in public.

Spinelli: I don't think so.

Maxie: Spinelli, I need to tell you something.

Spinelli: I appear to be a captive audience.

Maxie: I am really sorry for all those things I said to you.

Spinelli: Why? Maximista speaks the truth. Geek is what I am, or it is what I always have been. You know, in your analysis, you chose to overlook my foolish and unfounded overconfidence. I brought this entire disaster upon myself.

Agent Rayner: We want to know how Corinthos and Zacchara run their operation, who they do business with, financial information, whatever it takes to bring them down.

Jason: And Spinelli would be free and clear?

Agent Rayner: Sure, while we decide your next assignment. You're more useful to us than an undercover informant. See, you're not handicapped by all those inconvenient laws that our agents have to abide by. You can get into places that we can't. With you working for us, we can slice deeper. We can hit more targets. You'll maintain your position as head of the Corinthos family, only you'll have a silent partner -- us. Tick-tock, Mr. Morgan. Your friend's about to be transferred to a federal prison, and given that Mr. Spinelli has been charged with violating national security, we have the right to hold him indefinitely. This will be your only chance to save him.

Nadine: Who wouldn't be flattered? And if a position actually existed for me -- not that it would, because I mean, what do I really have to offer -- but if it did exist and if they offered it to me, then I would have to consider it. I mean, it's not often that we get a chance to serve our country.

Nikolas: No, no, it isn't.

Nadine: But I'm not holding my breath.

Nikolas: Things like that can happen fast sometimes.

Nadine: I'm picturing us in a couple of months laughing about this, and I will remind you that for once, I was not the naive one.

Nikolas: Would you stop underestimating yourself?

Nadine: No, it's not that. It's just -- how many times has someone been promised something by Washington only to end up with broken dreams and empty pockets? Besides, I like my life the way it is.

Nikolas: You know, that's one of the things I like most about you. Everyone else is obsessed with money and ambition. You get excited about things like wrist duckies and plows and things like that.

Nadine: Oh, and supportive men with kind hearts. And fundraisers!

Nikolas: Whoa, what?

Nadine: Yeah, I almost forgot. You know the hospital fundraiser, the one that Carly Jacks is spearheading?

Nikolas: Yes, to raise money for pediatric head trauma?

Nadine: Mm-hmm.

Nikolas: Yes.

Nadine: I really wanted to go, and since you're on the board, you're practically obligated. So I was thinking -- hoping that maybe you'd go as my date.

Nikolas: I'd -- I'd love to. I just wasn't actually planning on going.

Nadine: Okay, but maybe now that I asked you, you'd think about it.

Nikolas: Yeah, yeah. Look, listen, it's just that normally I'd jump at a fundraiser like this. It's just that it -- it falls on Emily’s birthday, so --

Nadine: Oh, um --

Nikolas: No, no, you know what? She would be the first one to tell me to do something positive to remember her, so yes, I would love to take you to the benefit.

Nadine: Okay, then it's a date.

Nikolas: Okay.

Elizabeth: No.

Lucky: You sure?

Elizabeth: Yeah.

Carly: Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no. Oh, gosh.

Lucky: Okay.

Carly: Thank you.

Lucky: Yeah, you bet.

Carly: You have no idea how bad that would be.

Lucky: Well, it's just groceries.

Carly: No, no, no, no, it's from the gourmet store. Yes, there's pate, olive bread, imported cheeses, all of Jax’s favorites. This is very important.

Lucky: Jax? I thought you and he had --

Carly: Yeah, well, anything's possible, clearly. [Boat horn] Just got to stay positive.

Lucky: We're watching the Parade of Lights.

Carly: Oh.

Lucky: Yeah, when it comes to boats, Cameron just can't get enough.

Carly: Oh. Look, here. I have an extra bag of cookies right there. Take it.

Lucky: Cookies.

Carly: Yes, give it to them for me.

Lucky: Great, more cookies. Thank you.

Carly: Have fun.

Lucky: I will. You, too.

Carly: Okay, thanks. Gosh.

Lucky: Cookies.

Elizabeth: From Carly?

Lucky: Yeah.

Elizabeth: What got into her?

Lucky: Well, she and Jax are trying to get back together.

Elizabeth: Again? Ugh. No, you know what? No, it's good for them. I hope she works things out.

Lucky: Yeah, well, you can't even stand Carly.

Elizabeth: Well, she gave us cookies.

Lucky: True.

Elizabeth: And this past year, I have learned a little bit of humility and tolerance. And we all know that Carly has made some horrific mistakes, and so have I. And if that woman can find a little redemption and happiness, then there's hope for me, too.

Anthony: Jason has to die, and you have to be the one to take him out.

Sonny: You said you would accept my decisions.

Anthony: That was before you started making so many mistakes.

Claudia: They're not mistakes, Daddy. They're choices.

Anthony: I sure as hell didn't think you'd start taking advice from her.

Claudia: Oh, well, if you had an ounce of respect for me or you bothered to ask, you'd know that I've been calling for Jason's head, too.

Anthony: Well, then, I guess your husband doesn't have any use for your opinion either. You're useless. Get the hell out.

Sonny: Don't speak to my wife like that.

Anthony: She's your wife because I ordered her to marry you to cement our alliance. I should have had my head examined. You let me believe you could kill off the competition, that you had the Spine --

Sonny: I'm running things because you can't. You let things crash and burn. I don't. It's not my style. I think things through. I wait for the right moment. I will take care of Jason when I think it's best.

Anthony: You made me lose my son, and you made me lose a shipment to your former partner.

Sonny: All in a day's work, Anthony.

Anthony: You know what that looks like to me? Sabotage.

Jason: I'll give you my full confession. You can send me to prison, but you have to let Spinelli go.

Agent Rayner: You're no good to us in prison.

Jason: Anthony Zacchara. I'll give you Anthony, but not Sonny.

Agent Rayner: You are in no position to negotiate. Now that Corinthos is working with Zacchara, what condemns one condemns the other.

Maxie: Wait, wait, wait, wait. Where are you taking him?

Spinelli: There's no need to accessorize, really. I'm quite comfortable in my cage.

Maxie: No, no, no, no.

Spinelli: Where's the brusque lady of --

Maxie: You can't take him to prison, okay? You cannot. Oh, here's your lawyer. She can fix it.

Diane: Just a moment. My client has rights. Now, I am getting a court order because the evidence you have was illegally obtained.

Agent Rayner: Hold on. Release Mr. Spinelli.

Diane: Thank you. I'm going to assume that there will be bail to post?

Agent Rayner: Not at the moment. He's free to go.

Patrick: She went straight to sleep after her bottle.

Robin: Oh, of course she did. Emma always behaves for her daddy.

Patrick: Robin, I think -- I think we should go see Kelly, maybe even Lainey, about what's going on.

Robin: Why? You think they know how to put together this swing?

Patrick: This isn't -- this isn't going away.

Robin: We already discussed this.

Patrick: No, I brought it up, and you shot it down.

Robin: Look, you know what? I hate stress just as much as the next person, but you have to be fair, okay? There's a lot going on here. This is all about being a new mother.

Patrick: Robin, this isn't normal stress. I mean, I could hear Emma crying from down the hall. You were acting like nothing was happening.

Robin: Well, because I've been reading about that. You know, there's this whole school of thought that sometimes you should let a baby cry for a reasonable amount of time.

Patrick: When they're going to sleep. When they're waking up, they either need to be changed or fed or even just held. I've read, too.

Robin: Okay, okay, really, if you start lecturing me on how to be a good mom, I think my head might explode.

Patrick: Then you know what? We have to stop denying this. Get a checkup. Maybe if it's not postpartum, maybe it's something else.

Robin: This place isn't working anymore.

Patrick: What do you -- what do you mean?

Robin: This place, our apartment. It's too small. I admit it. I think -- I think we should move.

Spinelli: You know, I could have just gone home. I don't need monitoring or supervision.

Maxie: No, the way Jason took off, it was obvious he had other things on his mind, and I don't want you to be alone. I want you to be here with me. Spinelli, you have to know how sorry I am.

Spinelli: There's no need for an apology. This wasn't your fault.

Maxie: I yelled at you and called you names. I had sex with you under false pretenses. What kind of person does that make me?

Spinelli: But you were right. The Jackal is everything you said and more. Now you can add to those dubious distinctions the moniker of criminal, and not even a very good one.

Maxie: Stop it. You are not a criminal. Yeah, maybe you work for one, but I know you wouldn't hurt a soul. You go out of your way to help people, especially me.

Spinelli: You sugarcoat my dubious deeds. The Jackal's a villain, not a hero. And now I fear I have placed my friend and mentor in a most untenable and compromised position.

Sonny: Don't kid yourself that I work for you. I'm not one of your handlers. If you're not happy with my methods, I don't care. Last thing I'm going to do is jeopardize my own interest, which happen to be your interests, too, Anthony.

Anthony: Not from where I'm sitting.

Sonny: You don't like my day to day? You don't like the way I run things? Go home, have a nice conversation with your roses.

Anthony: It's called dead-heading, cutting off the useless flowers to make way for fresh growth. I know enough to be ruthless about it. Now it's your turn.

Sonny: I know enough when to handle Jason. And as far as Johnny, he wants nothing to do with you, and I'm not going to let you waste valuable resources wanting to bring him home. Max!

Anthony: I'm not satisfied.

Sonny: I don't care. I got work to do. Tell Mr. Zacchara's handlers that he's ready to go home and spend some nice quality time with his flowers.

Anthony: Come on! We're not done.

Claudia: Bye.

Claudia: You played that perfectly.

Sonny: Oh, I'm not playing.

Claudia: Okay, well, you realize my father's not going to stop until you get rid of Jason.

[Knock on door]

Jason: Okay, I need your help.

Carly: What's wrong?

Jason: Are you alone?

Carly: Not for long.

Jason: Okay, this fight between me and Sonny is about to blow up, and I really need to talk to him, but I don't want to approach him cold.

Carly: Why not?

Jason: Because I blew up one of his shipments.

Carly: Jason.

Jason: Carly, I think he'll listen to you, okay? Maybe you can help me start brokering some type of peace.

Carly: How am I supposed to do that?

Jason: I want you to set up a meeting with Sonny here tonight.

Robin: And you know how hard it is for me to admit when I'm wrong. But I admit it. This apartment is smothering me.

Patrick: Well, I've always thought it was too small, but that's not the point.

Robin: That is the point. That's the point. Because that means that we can move, and everything will be better, and I can breathe again.

Patrick: So you really think that getting more room is going to help you fix whatever's happening.

Robin: Yes, yes. I mean, our lives are changing every day. You know, some days are harder than others. And when you mentioned postpartum it threw me and made me doubt myself, okay? But you have to put things into context. I am still healing from major surgery. I'm trying to raise a baby. Being sleep-deprived doesn't help either of us, and you know, you haven't been an angel either, but I'm not accusing you of having some sort of mental breakdown.

Patrick: Well, I'm sorry I made you doubt yourself. I just think it's healthier for both of us if we weren't pretending that you weren't in a funk.

Robin: All right, well, I'll make you a deal. How about you listen to me more instead of trying to fix me, and I'll be happier and things will be a lot more comfortable around here?

Patrick: Okay.

Maxie: That scary Sasha woman? That's what you call a villain. Or Jerry Jacks. And you're not like either one of them, Spinelli. You're good, and wonderful, and you're a genius.

Spinelli: Okay, perhaps maybe I'm not a villain per se, but I'm most definitely a dupe. The priestess -- Winnifred, was working undercover for the FBI. She blinded me with flattery and now is privy to my every deed. Laws were broken. And now I must deal with the consequences like any other mortal. I was so caught up in my own arrogance, my misplaced confidence that I opened Pandora’s Box, and it nearly put me in federal prison. Maximista, I have never been so scared in my entire life.

Maxie: But the FBI Let you go, and maybe you're not in trouble anymore.

Spinelli: The Jackal speaks as one who is not nearly as smart as he thought, nor a good judge of character. Winnifred was a fraud. Not trustworthy. I would have done very well to heed your warnings.

Maxie: Spinelli, the reason that I dissed Winnifred and was so horrible to you was because I was jealous.

Spinelli: Jealous?

Lucky: So you're having fun? Yeah?

Elizabeth: I got him. You get him dressed.

Lucky: Come on, I'll help. I'm going to wrap you up.

Elizabeth: This glove is going to eat your hands.

Sam: I guess it's over.

Lucky: Yeah. I'm sorry you missed it.

Elizabeth: Okay, stand up, baby. I let Lucky know that you came by earlier.

Sam: Good.

Lucky: Is Jason okay?

Sam: He's fine, yeah.

Lucky: See, that wasn't so hard. Hey, you know what, I think I'd better help Elizabeth get Cam home, but if it's all right, I'd like to come by.

Sam: Uh, you know, you'd better call first, because there's some things I have to follow up on.

Lucky: Another case?

Sam: No, actually, I'm just worried about Spinelli. I think he may be in trouble with the FBI.

Elizabeth: Is there something you can do?

Lucky: No, it's the fed's jurisdiction, but if I hear anything, I'll --

Sam: Yeah, me, too. I'll just, uh -- I'll call you later, okay?

Lucky: Okay.

Elizabeth: Is everything okay?

Lucky: Yeah, it is for me. I'm having a great time. I'm not going to let anything ruin that.

Carly: Is there any way that you can go to Sonny on your own?

Jason: No, no, I can't. He told me to watch my back. So if Sonny sees me coming, he might think it's for revenge, and this is just too important to risk any kind of misunderstanding.

Carly: Why do you think he'll be receptive to me?

Jason: Because -- I'll tell you why. Because when you let him see Morgan at Christmas, it changed things. And with our history, I know -- I know that he's going to accept you as a go-between, Carly. I just know it.

Carly: Jason. I love you. I would jump in front of a train to save you. But Jax is coming over here tonight. It's my last chance to try and save my marriage.

Jason: I didn't even know --

Carly: I can't cancel with Jax to save you and Sonny again. I just can't this time. I cancel and I drop everything when you and Sonny need me, but you have no idea what it'll cost me. I can't risk this one tiny chance I have left with Jax, I just can't do it.

Jason: Okay. You know what, I'm sorry for even bringing it up. It's not your problem.

Carly: Oh, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Jason: No, no -- no, Carly, it's okay. I mean, you -- you deserve your own life.

Carly: You can fix this, you know. You can fix this.

Jax: This looks like another crisis.

Jason: No, it's not Carly’s problem anymore.

Jax: What just happened?

Carly: I chose you.

Sonny: Jason couldn't have picked a worse time to take a stand.

Claudia: Let me ask you a question. Be honest now. If somebody you didn't know went after one of your ships and blew it up --

Sonny: Mm-hmm?

Claudia: You wouldn't go after them with everything you've got?

Sonny: No. What I would do is I would plan an effective response, which is what I'm doing right now.

Claudia: Okay, but the bottom line is, if you don't go after Jason, then you become the target. That's how my daddy rolls when he doesn't get what he wants. And that's not just the opinion of a bitter, unloved, uninformed daughter. It's the simple truth.

Sonny: Why are you warning me? I mean, despite the marriage, we're not exactly close.

Claudia: Well, let's just say that whatever I have with you is a hell of a lot better than what I had before. I'd just as soon keep it that way.

Sonny: Give me the insight on your dad.

Claudia: My father does not really want to fight with you, Sonny. He needs you. He needs an ally; he needs someone he can trust.

Sonny: Mm-hmm.

Claudia: He wants to protect his own interests. So this whole thing, this whole confrontation with Jason -- it's just a test. And if you pass, you can pretty much write your own ticket.

Carly: So here. It's a Pinot Grigio I thought you'd like.

Jax: You know, I don't think we're going to have a very good evening if we can't talk about what just happened with Jason, so --

Carly: Okay. Jason doesn't get upset easily. I don't know what it was about. He didn't say, and I didn't ask.

Jax: Well, that's not like you.

Carly: That's because I didn't want to get sucked into whatever was going on. He just asked me to set up a meeting between him and Sonny.

Jax: For tonight?

Carly: Mm-hmm.

Jax: Why doesn't he get Diane or Max to do it?

Carly: You know, since Sonny and I have figured things out, I guess Jason decided that I was the best one to smooth the way.

Jax: Oh. Well, you could have said yes. I mean, that's what you've always done for them in the past. I mean, you love being the hero.

Carly: It's Sonny and Jason's problem. They're the ones who have to fix it. I have my own life, I have my own priorities. My life used to be about them. Now I'd like it to be about us.

Maxie: The way you bonded with Winnifred, I thought maybe you found somebody you liked better than me.

Spinelli: You must know, no one could ever replace you in my affections.

Maxie: Well, it seemed that way at first. You and Winnifred got along really well. Obviously, it was total manipulation on her part, but it just showed me that there are definitely people out there who would make a better friend for you than me. I mean, I don't understand all that cyber stuff and we couldn't be any more different.

Spinelli: What is it they say about opposites?

Maxie: The point is that I overreacted, and I selfishly tried to undermine your friendship with Winnifred by having sex with you to get attention.

Spinelli: Okay. Please understand, I am most honored by your affections.

Maxie: I'm just really sorry.

Spinelli: Look, what's past is past. There's no need to dwell.

Maxie: It just worried me, you know, because Winnifred seemed like the exact perfect person for you. And instead of hoping that you would find happiness, I went out of my way to hurt you and trashed the best thing in my life.

Spinelli: The best thing?

Maxie: You're a wonderful man, Spinelli. And I couldn't imagine starting my day if I didn't think you'd be there to go through it with me.

[Knock at door]

Sam: Maxie? Are you there? Hi.

Maxie: Hi.

Sam: When I got to the police station, they said that you already left. Is everything okay?

Spinelli: Well, the Jackal was faced with indefinite imprisonment for crimes which, sadly, he did in fact commit. And unfortunately, Stone Cold saved me.

Diane: You owe me an explanation.

Agent Rayner: Can't you take yes for an answer, Ms. Miller?

Diane: What changed your mind, Agent, hmm? Is there going to be any further action toward Mr. Spinelli or Mr. Morgan? Because I'm going to expect a full status report on the case.

Agent Rayner: The investigations are ongoing. Your clients have been released. Beyond that, I'm not obligated to discuss any details.

Diane: Oh, come on, Agent. What deal did Jason Morgan make with you to get Damian Spinelli released?

Agent Rayner: I'll tell you what I told Mr. Morgan. Damian Spinelli is guilty of espionage and treason. We have enough, potentially, to put him away for life. If things don't go well, that just might happen. For the sake of your clients, do not get in my way, Ms. Miller. Your job is to remind Jason Morgan what's at stake here.

Sonny: This is the second serious mistake you've made tonight. The first one was blowing up my ship.

Jason: You would have done the same thing.

Sonny: Unless you're here to say you're sorry or that you're going to let me back into the organization so I can remind you how it should be run, what are you going to say to me? I don't understand.

Jason: Just listen to me. I've made allowances for you, Sonny. I've told myself it's because you're grieving for Michael. But I cannot make excuses for you anymore. It was your choice to take over the Zaccharas. So if you don't step down now, I can't save you.

Robin: Wow, I can't believe all of that square footage and a yard. I mean, it's perfect.

Patrick: It is a little further from the hospital than you wanted.

Robin: But you do realize Elizabeth lives literally around the corner from there, and she loves the neighborhood. She says it's a great place to raise a family.

Patrick: Well, the house does look awesome.

Robin: Well, what do you say we go over there tomorrow, and if we love it, we'll make an offer?

Patrick: Okay, whoa, whoa, wait a second. We're not going to put an offer on the first house we see.

Robin: Well, why not? You know, sometimes you get an instinct about things.

Patrick: Yes, I know.

Robin: I have always wanted a back porch. We could screen it and we could sleep there in the summertime.

Patrick: It would make a great nursery.

Robin: You mean better than a closet?

Patrick: Yes.

Robin: You know what? I think that a real family needs a real family home. So let's agree -- if we love the house, make an offer.

Spinelli: Are the Jackal's legal travails so renowned as to be broadcast far and wide?

Maxie: No, no, no. After you were arrested, I wanted to find Jason, so I called Sam. She helped me find him.

Sam: Yeah. How did Jason get them to drop the charges?

Maxie: We're not exactly sure they did drop the charges.

Spinelli: Yeah, the federal ones are being less than forthcoming. One moment, I was being shackled, ready to be transported to federal prison. The next, I'm free. Does fair Samantha think that Stone Cold took drastic action to get me released?

Sam: No, no, no, no. Don't worry about it. All that matters is that you're free.

Spinelli: Well, despite the fact that I actually did commit the crimes of which I'm accused.

Maxie: Stop it, Spinelli.

Sam: Yes, stop it. You made a mistake. Come on, we all make mistakes. Just learn from it.

Maxie: Exactly.

Spinelli: What if he was threatened by the agent of doom? What if they -- what if they twisted his arm into doing something unthinkable?

Sam: Well, you know what? That's Jason's decision to make, and he is your friend, Spinelli, and I think that sometimes, you've got to learn how to let your friends take care of you.

Maxie: Sam's right. Just like I'm your friend, and I'm going to take care of you tonight. You really need to stop worrying.

Spinelli: Maximista makes a nearly impossible request. If he made a bargain with the federal ones, it could irrevocably impact our future. This is most dire.

Carly: So, I have all of your favorite things. Those cheeses that I can't pronounce any of their names, and there's some pate, and I'm pretty sure if I knew how that was made, I wouldn't go anywhere near it. Here.

Jax: Probably not, huh? This is very nice, really. So what's the main course?

Carly: Well, there are many answers to that question.

Jax: I'm just curious what you ordered in, that's all.

Carly: This is it.

Jax: This is it?

Carly: Mm-hmm.

Jax: A meal of appetizers?

Carly: Yes.

Jax: Oh.

Carly: It kind of goes along with taking things slowly, you know? Bit by bit. Taste by taste. Whenever I sit down to a huge meal, I get all stuffed, and I regret it afterwards. I mean, sure, it feels really good at the time. I just don't want to be sorry when I'm done.

Jax: Hmm.

Carly: Hmm.

Jax: Leave them wanting more.

Carly: Worth a shot.

Jax: Mm-hmm. You've put some thought into this, haven't you?

Carly: Haven't thought of much else. You know, if I thought you would stay longer, I would have ordered in a 12-course meal, but I think this one snack at a time is all we can handle in our delicate situation.

Jax: I know what you said to Jason before was a big deal. And I just wanted you to know that I appreciate that.
