THIS STILL NEEDS SOME EDITING!
Kristina: Is that so, Violet?
Violet: Aunt Elizabeth and daddy beat Kelly’s.
Well, no, to be clear, the G.H. team beat the Kelly’s team.
Ooh! Carly’s going to be mad.
21 to 4.
Oh, heads will roll.
PC!
PD!
PC!
PD!
PC!
PD!
[ Both laugh ]
All hail the conquering heroes.
Am I to assume this means you won, also?
Well, it was tough, but we pulled it through, yeah.
Wow. Well, well, well. I guess it wasn’t the bloodbath G.H. inflicted on Kelly’s?
G.H. did sort of wipe the floor with them.
Oh, coming from the nurse.
Head cheerleader. But I am going to play the next game.
And you’d better, too. The fire department would have wiped the floor with us if your sister didn’t step up for your brother.
Guilty as charged.
Sounds like “Game of Thrones.”
Hey, what do you say we, uh, get this party started?
Drinks on Chase?
Whoa. I’m just kidding.
Oh.
Kristina: No, actually, this is — this is the perfect time for that. Drinks on the house. First round is on me.
Aww, thank you, Kristina.
Kristina: Yeah. Charlie’s supports the winners.
Whoo!
Dante: Hey, what’s going on? So did we win?
Sam: Oh, we won, alright. And you had nothing to do with it.
Dante: I don’t know about that. Looks like I had lots to do with it.
Nina: So what do you think? Good to be home?
Sonny: It’s good to be home with you.
Nurse Janice: And that’s when he assaulted the doctor and took his clothes. He was already on his way out with the patient when I realized who he was. I initiated lockdown protocol, but it was already too late. They were gone.
Detective: Okay. And what were the patients’ names?
Nurse Janice: Sasha Gilmore and Cody Bell.
Cody: Hey, Sasha. Hey, stay with me. Stay with me. You’re doing great. You’re doing great. We’re almost there. Okay, Sam. Let’s see if I can find this key in the wood pile. Here. Can you hold yourself up?
Sasha: Mm-hmm.
Cody: Alright. Bingo. Okay. Come here. Hey. I got you. I got you. Here, come on. Alright? Hey. We made it. [ Chuckles ]
Oh then you take me by the hand I feel better again oh I feel better now
Shirley Temple for the victorious Violet and seltzers for the champions.
Finn: Oh, thank you, but champions may be a bit of an overstatement.
Elizabeth: Oh, don’t be so modest, Finn.
Violet: Don’t be sad, Daddy. Everyone strikes out sometimes.
Finn: Thank you, Violet. You know, but hitting is just part of the game, right? There’s also the defense, the — the catch I made at the fence and saved that home run.
And another part of the game is running. Too bad you got tagged out at second.
Finn: Mm-hmm. But at least I made it to first, right? You know, we can’t all be speed demons on the bases like you.
Violet: Yeah, how did you get so good?
Elizabeth: Hmm? Well, I do have three boys. It’s a lot of backyard practice, especially with Jake. Talk about a speed demon. Where is he?
Violet: Jake never showed up to the game.
I’ll be back.
Willow: Your sister is so sweet.
Michael: Well, she cares about you.
Willow: I just wish everyone wouldn’t worry so much. I mean, my numbers are great. They’re holding steady.
Michael: I cannot hear that enough. You know, you’re my miracle, Willow, in so many ways.
Willow: Well, it was nice to be just another person shouting, cheering in the bleachers today, watching the G.H. team beat the pants off Kelly’s. It was so much fun. It felt so normal. It had nothing to do with my illness. I was just glad to forget about being sick for a while.
Michael: I’m glad. I just wish I was there to share it with you.
Willow: Well, you had somewhere much more important to be.
Yeah. Beers all around. Thank you. Okay, so what are we drinking to, our win or Sonny beating the rap?
To Sonny.
To Sonny.
To Sonny.
To Sonny, then.
No? You’re not —
Kristina: I’m working.
Sonny: You okay?
Nina: I’m really flattered that you’re asking about me, Sonny, but I’m not the one that was dragged from The Metro Court by the FBI and in custody for 72 hours.
Sonny: Worst part for me was getting arrested. Seeing Kristina and Wiley’s face, they were upset. And then I saw your face, and it wasn’t good.
Nina: No, it wasn’t. I was scared to death.
Sonny: Okay.
Nina: You know, those agents, they came in there, and they looked so confident. And I couldn’t help but think that you were going to be convicted and spend the rest of your life in prison.
Sonny: Nina, let’s not go down that road.
Nina: I-I can’t help it, because if you would have been found guilty, we would have already had our last day together and not known it.
Sonny: I’m sorry that I scared you.
Nina: Babe, you don’t have to be sorry. It wasn’t you. It was the FBI.
Sonny: [ Sighs ] Maybe, but maybe not — not entirely.
Nina: What do you mean?
Sonny: Well, uh, I couldn’t tell you until now. There was no chance that I was going to be convicted.
Nurse Janice: The nurse on duty was new. She thought one of the physicians was just taking out her patient for some fresh air.
Gladys: I’m sorry. Did you just say Cody Bell kidnapped Sasha?
And you are?
Gladys: I’m Sasha Gilmore’s mother-in-law. My name is Gladys Corbin. I’m her guardian.
Nurse Janice: Ms. Corbin, I —
Gladys: How could you let this happen? My daughter-in-law is so vulnerable. How could you let Cody take her?!
Nurse Janice: We didn’t let him take her. They just got away before we could get to them.
Gladys: Whoa, whoa, whoa. No, not they. He. He kidnapped her!
Nurse Janice: Sasha was leaning against Mr. Bell. She didn’t seem to be struggling with him. I don’t know if he was kidnapping her or if they were escaping together.
Cody: Sasha. What have they done to you? Hey. Hey, Sasha. Hey, stay with me. Hey, come here. Let’s get you up. Come on. Hey, listen to me. Hey, that Sam, she really pulled through for us, right? Car was exact– no, no, no, no, no. You got to stay awake, Sasha. Okay? You think you could drink a little something?
Sasha: No. No, I don’t want —
Cody: Look, hey, it’s just —
Sasha: Don’t make me take it.
Cody: It’s just a little water. That’s all it is.
Sasha: No! Get away.
Cody: Sasha — Sasha, hey. I’m just trying to help, okay? You need to hydrate.
Sasha: No! No! Get away!
Cody: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, be careful. Be careful, Sasha.
Sasha: No! Please don’t hurt me!
Cody: I’m not trying to hurt you. I’m not trying to hurt you.
Sasha: No! Stay away!
Cody: Sasha, Sasha, you’re safe. I promise. You have to believe me.
I got to say, that was a-a first for me. I’ve never seen an arraignment happen that fast.
Kristina: Oh, my god. I know. I was so worried when the judge said, “Michael Corinthos, Jr., you are charged with seven counts of violating the federal law.” I thought my heart was going to just beat through my chest. And then the FBI lawyers just stood up like it was no big deal and dropped the charges.
Chase: Well, they withdrew the charges at this time without prejudice. Which means they can refile the charges at any point in the future.
Well, there can’t be much of a case if they folded immediately.
The most important thing is Dad is home, but not without having to jump through hoops.
Kristina: I-I feel like we should sue them for what they put our family through. I mean, honestly, isn’t there a law against harassing the public while making a false arrest? There should be.
I think we should just be glad it’s over.
Yeah. Amen to that. I’ll be back.
Chase: You know, it is odd the FBI would make such a public arrest if they weren’t certain about the evidence. Something doesn’t add up.
Willow: Michael, it’s behind us now. That’s good news.
Michael: I was so worried that the FBI somehow found the footage of Sonny taking that delivery from Pikeman.
Willow: But they didn’t.
Michael: But they could have, and that would have been on me.
Willow: Stop beating yourself up. You chose not to turn over the evidence.
Michael: Yeah, well, you know, I still paid Dex to get it, to spy on Sonny and record his business dealings. I wanted to take my father down. I’m so grateful that you convinced me not to go through with it. I mean, could you imagine if I used that footage to get Sonny convicted? How would I ever face my family again? I let my self-righteous anger take over.
Willow: Michael, you felt betrayed by Sonny. I don’t like what you did, but it didn’t come out of nowhere.
Michael: Willow, I — I don’t want my father to go to prison.
Elizabeth: You know, Jake did text me after the game and said he was detained and that’s why he couldn’t make it. But he’ll meet us here later.
Violet: What’s “detained”?
Elizabeth: Um, it’s when something suddenly comes up, and it makes you late.
Finn: Mm. Look, there he is!
Violet: And Charlotte’s with him!
Finn: Hmm. Guess we know what detained him.
Nina: Well, Sonny, what are you saying to me? I mean, what made you think that you wouldn’t be convicted? I mean, I’m pretty sure that some of your business dealings aren’t strictly legal. So what made you think that the FBI wouldn’t be able to make a case?
Sonny: You know the — the raid on the docks?
[ Sighs ]
Sonny: As I was being hauled in, uh, the FBI were seizing a shipment that I was moving through. They busted a lot of my men, including Gabe. And what they thought they were going to find was contraband weapons. And what they found was a shipment of shade-grown Costa Rican coffee beans.
Nina: Coffee beans?
Sonny: The finest.
Nina: So the FBI, they — they go to the docks, and they expect to find contraband weapons, and they find coffee beans?
Sonny: Mm.
Nina: I’m surprised that the FBI would make such a big mistake.
Sonny: Well, I’m sure s-somebody must have given them bad information.
Nina: Well, who gave them the bad information, Sonny?
Sonny: Somebody who thought it was legit.
Nina: Are you saying to me that you set up the FBI?
Sasha: No, no. No. No! Dr. Montague!
Cody: No, no, no, no, no. It’s Cody. Cody.
Sasha: Please, please don’t hurt me!
Cody: Sasha, Sasha, I’m not going to hurt you. I’m not Montague, okay? I’m Cody. Look at me.
Sasha: Cody. Cody.
Cody: Yeah, I’m here. It’s me.
Sasha: What? Where are we?
Cody: We’re safe. Remember?
Sasha: We were at the hospital.
Cody: Here. Come here.
Sasha: [ Groans ]
Cody: The doctor walked in right as we were getting ready to go. But we got away. And don’t worry. Hey. He’s never going to hurt you again. No one’s ever going to touch you ever again. That’s a promise. But right now, Sasha, you got to take a sip of water, please.
Sasha: No. No, I can’t.
Cody: Yes. Look, whatever Montague pumped into you, it’s starting to fade, and you need to drink something.
Sasha: No, no, please, please.
Cody: Okay, you’re going through withdrawals.
Sasha: No. No, it hurts. It hurts.
Cody: I know. Look, I know — I know that it hurts. You’re going to have to push through that, though.
Sasha: No, it’s too much. It’s too much!
Cody: Hey, don’t let Montague’s poison win. Sasha, you’re going through detox right now. You have to sip some of this water, please.
Sasha: No! No, I can’t, Cody! I can’t!
Cody: Yes, you can. I am right here. I am with you. You can do this.
Sasha: No! I can’t.
Cody: Listen to me. Focus. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. The pain, okay, it’s going to ease. But right now, you have to fight to live.
Sasha: I — I don’t want to fight anymore!
Cody: Yeah, well, you have to! If you’re not going to do it for yourself, you do it for Brando! You do it for Liam!
Hey, there.
Hey.
Jake:Sorry I missed the game.
That’s okay. We missed you. But despite your absence, we still won.
Violet: Charlotte, you look so pretty.
Charlotte: Thank you, Violet.
Violet: Is that why you didn’t come to the game, Jake? Were you with Charlotte?
We were at Kelly’s.
Violet: Were you on a date?
Kristina: Dante, I think it’s really cool you showed up for Dad today despite being a cop. Not that I would expect anything less.
Dante: Oh, well, thank you, Kristina. I mean, look, Sonny’s my father. Cop or no cop, there’s nowhere else I would have been.
Chase: No, Kris is right. You took a risk to stand by Sonny. I mean, I’d like to think that if my dad was going through something, I’d stand by him the same way.
Michael: Uh, Willow? Um… would you be okay being alone for like an hour or so here?
Willow: Absolutely. I think I can handle that.
Michael: Okay. There’s something I got to take care of.
Willow: Hello, little man. I just called because I missed you. I’m so glad you liked the game. Well, someday that will be you sliding into home base. Whatever team you want to be on. That’s for you to decide. I know, um, Olivia told you about Grandpa Sonny’s trial. Yes, Daddy was very happy. We’ll see you soon, okay? I love you, too, Wiley.
Why don’t you guys go get some sodas or nachos if you’re hungry?
I’m not sure I could eat any more. But we could definitely use some sodas.
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah.
Violet: Wait, wait, where are you going? I want to hear about the date.
Finn: Yeah, look, uh, hey, wouldn’t you rather go talk to your Uncle Chase? You — you could tell him about my spectacular catch.
Violet: Daddy, it wasn’t that spectacular.
Finn: Thank you. So, Jake and Charlotte Cassadine?
Elizabeth: It’s the first I’m hearing about it.
Finn: I guess at least now you — you know the stuff he needed to do.
Elizabeth: Stop it. They’re awfully young.
Finn: Hey, you know, it kind of looks like they’re on the slow boat. I wouldn’t worry about it getting too heavy.
Elizabeth: Oh, is that what you’re going to say when Violet’s Jake’s age?
Finn: Oh, I-I can’t imagine Violet’s first date.
Elizabeth: Mm-hmm, imagine it, ’cause it’s going to happen sooner or later.
Finn: Later. Much, much later.
Chase: You know, Sam is the real hero for the PCPD team. Without her, we would have completely been left in the dust.
Violet: Just like Aunt Elizabeth.
Finn: [ Sighs ] Time goes by so fast. I mean, I’m — I’m looking at Chase over there, and he — he doesn’t know about Dad. And I’m glad, you know? Give him an extra moment to be happy.
Elizabeth: You should do the same. Look at all the joy around us. And don’t you want to bask in your spectacular catch as long as you can?
Finn: [ Chuckles ]
Sasha: What do you know about Brando and Liam? You’ve got no right to use them against me!
Cody: Hey, hey, hey, I know that you love them. I know that their memories mean something to you. I know you’d want to honor them instead of disgracing their memories like this.
Sasha: How dare you?!
Cody: I also know that they would want you to fight. You are so strong. Think about all that you’ve survived, Sasha. And you need to stay strong in order to get through this.
Sasha: He — he said that I was strong, too.
Cody: Yeah, well, he was right. He was strong.
Sasha: And what did that get him, hmm? Every person I have ever loved, Brando, Liam, they’re gone. Gone, Cody. I barely even remember my mother. My — my grandmother showed me pictures, and I know the facts and the dates, but — but it’s — it’s just another story. Everyone fades. I look around, and I don’t — I don’t even know where I belong anymore. I wouldn’t even have come to Port Charles if it wasn’t to get the money for my grandmother. There’s nothing left for me here.
Cody: There are people here that love you, Sasha. You live for them.
Sasha: Who, Cody? I have nobody left.
Cody: You have me.
Sonny: I didn’t plan to set the FBI up. That just happened. The target was someone else.
Nina: Someone else?
Sonny: I knew they were digging around. They were asking questions, and they weren’t going to stop. So I let them steal what they thought they were going to find.
Nina: But it’s not what they really wanted?
Sonny: Nope. And they didn’t know that. I had, uh, Brick dummy up something that seemed real. That’s what they gave to the FBI.
Nina: I don’t suppose you’re going to tell me who this “someone else” is?
Sonny: I don’t know who that someone else is, but I’m going to find out. See, that was the first plan, was to just smoke them out, see what they thought of the phony intel. Now, it was a risk because if they came sniffing around, there was a chance that I would be in custody. But that was a chance I was willing to take.
Nina: Oh, Sonny, Krissy and Wiley —
Sonny: I wish I could have told you this before, and I didn’t want to do it, but —
Nina: No, I get it. I really do.
Sonny: You know, I would have just — but I can’t tell you I can’t do it again.
Nina: I understand.
Sonny: It’s the reality of my life.
Nina: Okay. Stop torturing yourself, because I knew what I was getting into, the good and the bad, when you asked me to marry you. And I love you. I love all of you. There are no regrets. Do you hear me? Absolutely no regrets. I’m ready to share your life with you and all of its complications. And if there’s anything that I worry about, it’s a small price to pay for the happiness that I feel being with you.
[ Knock on door ]
Sonny: [ Laughs ] What?
Gabe: Your son’s here to see you.
Sonny: Let him in. I-I thought Dante was meeting with Sam.
Michael: Hey, Dad.
Nina: Come in, please, Michael. Can I get you anything?
Sonny: Hey, Michael.
Michael: Hey. Um, no, no, no. I’m fine. I didn’t — I didn’t get a chance to talk to you in the courtroom.
Sonny: That’s okay. I mean, I didn’t expect you to.
Michael: Um, look, I just wanted to tell you how happy I am that the charges were dropped against you, and that you weren’t alone in the courtroom, that you had a lot of — you had a lot of support.
Nina: Well, that support included you, Michael, and we were both very grateful for that.
[ Cellphone chimes ]
Nina: I-I, um, just remembered something that I was supposed to do, if you both will excuse me.
Sonny: Okay.
Michael: She, uh, got out of here pretty quick.
Sonny: She probably wanted to give us some time alone.
Probably.
I’m glad. There’s, um — there’s something I need to tell you.
Kristina: Save you a trip.
Dante: Thank you.
Kristina: Oh, man. Dante, I am so relieved about Dad. Everyone really rallied around him. Even Michael came. Thought I was going to cry when Dad saw him. The look on his face —
Dante: Yeah, look, Michael loves Sonny, despite what he says sometimes.
Kristina: Well, we weren’t too sure about that when we showed up at his office accusing him of the arrest.
Dante: I know. I went in there a little fired up, but, uh, you know, I guess I was wrong.
Kristina: Yeah.
Dante: Thankfully, now we can just focus on mending our family.
Kristina: I know that’s what Nina wants.
Dante: Yeah, I’m not the one you have to convince, remember?
Kristina: Yeah. I think, though, Michael is going to see how good Nina is for Dad after all of this. She brought me back from the edge a couple of times. She had it all together. I don’t know how, but she just pulled through. Maybe this is going to be a good omen for them. Like, now they can finally just be happy together.
You slacking on your softball, Finn? Violet tipped me off.
Yeah, well, we didn’t have a whole lot of time this year for spring training.
You seemed to hold your own pretty well.
Okay, just wait till the PCPD plays G.H.
Oh, trust me, I am counting down the days.
[ Cellphone ringing ]
Chase: I bet. Oh, it’s work. This is Detective Harrison Chase.
Violet: Jake missed the game, and then he showed up here with Charlotte. I think they’re on a date.
Willow: Are you sure it’s a date?
Violet: That’s what I wanted to ask, but Daddy sent me over here. I humored him, but now I’m going to go find out everything I can.
Willow: Oh, Violet, I’m not sure that’s such a good idea. You know, when two people are on a date, especially if it might be a first date, it’s probably best not to bug them.
Violet: Why?
Hey, what’s going on?
Chase: That was dispatch. There’s an APB out on two patients who escaped Ferncliff. Sasha Gilmore and Cody bell.
Cody: Thanks for trying to drink a little. It will get better. How are you feeling?
Sasha: Not good.
Cody: Do you think you could try drinking just a little bit more?
Sasha: [ Sighs ] Hey. Why are you here? Everybody else has left me, but not you.
Cody: Yeah, no. And I’m not planning on leaving you. As long as you keep fighting, I’ll be right here alongside you.
Nina: Gladys, so what is going on? What’s the emergency? Did something happen to Sasha?
Gladys: Sasha’s been kidnapped.
Michael: After the judge dismissed the charges. It was, uh, just too much for me.
Sonny: Too much?
Michael: Yeah. Too many thoughts swirling in my head. I-I don’t even know what I was thinking. It was like, I don’t know, I was at war with myself. Uh… I had to get out of there, so I’m sorry.
Sonny: Sorry? You don’t have to be sorry for anything. I mean, I — the fact that you were there meant everything to me. I — actually, I didn’t — I didn’t expect it.
Michael: No, I know. And that’s the worst part.
Are you sad you missed the game?
No. Are you? I mean, did you want to go?
Charlotte: No, I’ll catch the next one.
Jake: You want to grab another soda?
Charlotte: No, but I want to hear more about your drawing. I’m not much of an artist, but I like to write, and I was thinking it’d be cool to do a graphic novel. Maybe you could do some of the drawings, and I could write the story?
Jake: Yeah, I-I could do that.
Charlotte: Okay, but it can’t be lame like every other superhero thing.
Jake: No.
Charlotte: I was looking at these cool cards the other day, and I was thinking it’d be amazing to do a middle ages theme.
Jake: That could work.
Willow: You know how sometimes you don’t want the boys around when you’re playing dress-up or doing something very girly?
Violet: No, I don’t mind the boys being around.
Willow: Well, sometimes people can…get shy. You know, what if — what if Jake and Charlotte feel that way? I think it’s best to respect their privacy.
Violet: If Jake and Charlotte wanted to be private, why did they come to a restaurant?
Elizabeth: Poor Willow. Look at that glazed-over look on her face. When Violet starts asking questions, there’s no stopping her.
Finn: Yeah, no, I mean, maybe it’s better her talking to Willow than critiquing my softball performance.
Elizabeth: Oh, come on. You love it.
Finn: Yeah, I do.
Elizabeth: You know, when you let yourself have fun, you’re actually pretty good at it.
Sam: Why did we have to leave Charlie’s so quickly?
Dante: Well, the station called Chase. They put out an APB. Cody and Sasha broke out of Ferncliff. But you knew that was going to happen. Didn’t you?
Sasha: I stabbed you, and still, you’re here. Why would you help me after I hurt you?
Cody: That wasn’t you, Sasha. It was the drugs. I mean, you thought I was Cyrus Renault. It was a hallucination.
Sasha: Where are we?
Cody: Uh, someplace that Sam found for us. She helped me get in to see you. She arranged for a car and this cabin so we’d have a safe place to come after I broke you out of Ferncliff. Hey, hey, hey, hey. It’s okay. Okay? You’re safe now. You’re free. You’re free from everything that Dr. Montague did to you. And, Sasha, I promise you will never have to go through anything like that again.
Sasha: Cody, I —
Cody: Yeah, hey. No, I get it. Right now, you need your rest. You think you can sleep? Okay. I’ll be right here by your side the whole time. No one’s going to hurt you, not while I’m here. I promise.
Nina: Sasha was kidnapped? What are you talking about?
Gladys: Okay, okay. I went out to Ferncliff to check on her release, fill out any paperwork, and — and smooth the way to bring her home. And —
Nina: And what happened?
Gladys: Okay, as I drove in, I saw a cop car. And then I got up to Sasha’s floor, and a nurse is giving a statement… saying that Sasha was kidnapped by Cody Bell.
Violet: [ Sighs ] Bye, Willow.
Willow: Bye.
Kristina: A refill.
Willow: Thank you.
Kristina: Yeah.
Willow: I, uh — I also wanted to tell you how relieved I am that the charges against Sonny were dropped.
Kristina: Yeah, well, you have no idea. I’m so relieved. I have been pretty wound up about it the last few days, but it feels like a weight has finally lifted, and I can breathe again.
Willow: It was so horrible, seeing those agents storm in and surround Sonny like that.
Kristina: Yeah, I-I didn’t know what to do.
Willow: Well, you sure seemed to know. You got right up in their faces.
Kristina: Yeah, something kind of, uh, took over. It’s crazy. They were there, about to just grab my dad, and I-I just wanted to do anything I could to protect him. I-I just wanted it to stop. And thank god Michael was there. I — where is my brother?
Willow: Uh, Michael had to leave for a little bit.
Kristina: Oh.
Sonny: What do you mean when you said that that was the worst part?
Micheal: Sonny… Dad. The fact that things have gotten so bad between us that you wouldn’t even expect that I’d show up at your trial? You know, it’s like — it’s like I’ve been walking this — this path, and suddenly, I don’t recognize my own footprints.
Sonny: You have every right to feel the way you want to feel. I know that I’ve let you down.
Micheal: Yeah, well, that’s just it. People let people down. It doesn’t mean you have to destroy them.
Sonny: Why you talking about destroying people? That’s not like you, to be talking about —
Micheal: Not — not destroying people, Dad. Destroying you. I was furious with you. Ever since I was little… …I always knew there was something different about us. Whenever things got dangerous, you sent us to the island. We had no idea what the danger was or why it would suddenly appear. Just that you and Mom were worried. So, uh, I mean, Morgan and I, we just created games, and we created stories. Like one time, we pretended that the island was Never Never Land, and we were there because Captain Hook was coming. So we we had our swords, and we ran around the cove, and we pretended to be your guards.
Sonny: Yeah, I, uh — Morgan had a sword named Spiker. Remember that?
Micheal: Yeah. Yeah. He wanted to sleep with it. Mom wouldn’t let him. She said the best place for swords were next to the bed. Not in the bed. I think we always knew why there were real guards around us all the time. Certainly by high school, I knew that Corinthos Coffee wasn’t your only business. And by then, I also knew that one of the threats was the police. And I saw you escape the law time and time again.
Sonny: Michael… what did you come here to tell me?
Dante: Apparently, Cody jumped a doctor, stole his clothes, grabbed Sasha, and they got out of there before they locked the place down.
Sam: Oh, my god.
Dante: Then, get this. When they got out of the building, they didn’t escape on foot. There was a car waiting for them with the keys still in it. [ Groans, chuckles ] Hey, babe, when you plan a breakout, you plan a breakout.
Sam: What do you want me to say?
Dante: Nothing, I guess. I just hope everything works out and Cody and Sasha are safe.
Kristina: Michael had to leave for a little while? Where’d he go?
Willow: He said he had an errand to run.
Kristina: An errand, hmm, at this hour?
Willow: I think I have an idea what it was. And if I’m right, it’s long overdue.
Micheal: Look, there were times that I found myself wishing that you would be prosecuted and convicted. And I would tell myself that it was about justice. But, uh — [ Breathes shakily ] Really, it was about making you pay for our family falling apart.
Sonny: I understand.
Micheal: No, no, Dad, you don’t. You couldn’t possibly. Dad, I — I found myself standing there in the courtroom and realizing that the last thing I want is for you to be sent to prison, you know, for Kristina, for Dante, for the girls, but also because you’re my father. And I don’t want you behind bars. I-I don’t want you to suffer. And I don’t want to be angry at you anymore. It’s exhausting. This — this resentment that I’ve been holding onto, it’s like… it’s turning me into somebody who I don’t want to be, especially with my family. The family that I almost lost. [ Sighs ] That’s all I wanted to say, okay, just — just tell you that I’m very happy that you beat the charges.
Sonny: Michael? You didn’t have to say a-all that. I appreciate it. It means a lot. I just want you to know… …no matter what, you’re my son. I love you.
Micheal: Yeah. Love you, too.
Nina: Why would Cody Bell, of all people, kidnap Sasha?
Gladys: Well, he’s tried it once before. I mean, probably to get revenge for her stabbing him. I had to file for a restraining order to stop him.
Nina: How come this is the first of me hearing this?
Gladys: Because I took care of everything to protect Sasha from Cody. But he lied his way into Ferncliff, pretended to be a patient.
Nina: How could he pretend to be a patient at Ferncliff?
Gladys: I-I don’t know. That’s what the nurse told the cops. She said Cody grabbed Sasha and ran out with her.
Nina: Okay, you told me that Sasha, she was trapped in Ferncliff. Right? You told me that her doctor was keeping her there. You had to pay ransom to get her out. How do you know she didn’t just leave with Cody willingly? I mean, maybe Cody went there not to kidnap her for revenge, but to rescue her.
Gladys: No, no, no. No, Cody is a thief and a liar. All he cares about is money. I think he was working with the doctor, following his orders when he took Sasha.
Nina: What?
Gladys: Yeah. Now Sasha’s in more danger than ever.
