Sonny: Yeah, I got your latest report on the West Coast competition. Looks great, Brick.

[ Knock on door ]

Sonny: Yeah. Come in!

Frank: Boss, there’s someone here to see you.

Sonny: Alright, listen, something just came up. I’ll get that report to you.

[ Cellphone clatters ]

Sonny: Wow, you don’t waste any time, do you? I just saw you this morning.

Dex: You said to come by your office — you might have more work for me, so why wait?

Sonny: Frank, can you wait outside?

Frank: Yes, sir.

Dex: I brought my résumé.

[ Door closes ]

[ Paper ripping ]

---

Brando: Where’s TJ? They should have the C results by now.

Sasha: Maybe he got caught up with another patient. I’m sure the CT will be fine. All I have is a headache and some jangled nerves. We shouldn’t even have bothered him.

Brando: You had a major shock last night. I’m tracking TJ down.

TJ: Sorry for the wait. There was a backup in radiology.

Sasha: Will I live?

TJ: Your CT looked fine, but do you want me to give you something for the headaches?

---

Sasha: The photographer. I can’t shake him! [ Sighs ]

Gladys: He wants this.

Sasha: You stole his memory card?

Gladys: That rat deserved it after taking all those pictures of you just to make a fast buck.

Valentin: Can I be of some assistance?

---

Curtis: Jordan. Are you okay?

Jordan: Fine. Passed my latest checkup with flying colors.

Curtis: That’s good. What’s with the concerned expression?

Jordan: I’m following up with the M.E. About the Harmony Miller case. What about you?

Curtis: Um, I was hoping to speak with TJ, but he’s been working these 24-hour shifts. It’s kind of hard to get a hold of him.

Jordan: One thing you can say about my son, he’s no slacker.

Curtis: No, he isn’t.

Jordan: So what do you want to talk to TJ about? Sorry. None of my business. I guess old habits die hard.

---

Salon worker: May I help you?

Nina: Um, no, thank you. I think I see the person that I’m looking for. Thank you so much.

Scott: Oh!

Nina: Ohh!

Scott: [ Exhales sharply ]

Nina: Sorry, here you go. Can I just have a second?

Nail Tech: Yeah.

Nina: Thank you so much.

Scott: Um, Nina. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Uh, if you’re looking for a manicure, Veronica, she’s your girl. But if you’re looking for your attorney, he’s busy!

Nina: Too bad, Scott. Listen, I need your full and complete attention, and I need it now.

---

Willow: It’s not true.

Dante: I’m sorry, Willow, but the evidence we have that says you are not Harmony’s biological daughter was taken from Dr. Byrne’s notes — what’s left of them, anyway.

Michael: “What’s left”?

Carly: Harmony burned most of them. I found a remaining sheet of notes and a file folder that Harmony missed.

Dante: So what we have are partial records of Dr. Byrne’s therapy sessions with Harmony.

Michael: If it’s only a partial record, then maybe you misunderstood Dr. Byrne’s notes.

Carly: Harmony told me. She said that you weren’t her biological daughter.

Michael: I mean… that might explain why your mom attacked my mom and Alexis, so no one else would know the truth.

Dante: Sorry, Willow. I know you’ve got questions. And you know what? The PCPD will do our best to make sure you get answers.

Michael: Willow?

Willow: It’s a lie.

---

Sonny: I don’t rely on résumés. Chet already said all kinds of nice things about you, and I know you can handle yourself by the way you dealt with those fighters that were supposed to be sparring, but they ended up fighting.

Dex: Does that mean I have a job?

Sonny: I’ve got to get to know you better before I decide whether you’re the right fit for one of my businesses.

Dex: Coffee. Import/export.

Sonny: The most important thing is trust, especially in my business. I’ve got to know if I can trust you. If that’s a problem, we stop right now.

---

TJ: Tell you what — I’ll write down an over-the-counter, non-habit-forming medication. That should take care of the headaches.

Sasha: Thanks.

TJ: And if the headaches persist, we can talk about something stronger, okay?

[ Door opens ]

---

Gladys: Valentin. It’s been a while.

Valentin: It has. I was on my way out and saw you sitting here, having a heck of a time with that memory card.

Gladys: Hey, whoa. Whoa, whoa.

Valentin: Allow me. Want me to open these files?

Gladys: No, no. I can handle it from here.

Valentin: What have we here? It’s the face of Deception.

---

Jordan: If I run into TJ, I’ll tell him you’re looking for him.

Curtis: Jordan, wait. It is about Marshall.

Jordan: What about him?

Curtis: TJ likes the guy. Says he wants to get to know his grandfather.

Jordan: TJ has a big heart and is very forgiving. Marshall’s absence for all these years hasn’t hurt him like it has you.

Curtis: I know, but still, there are some things that TJ is entitled to know.

Jordan: Such as?

Curtis: Such as who and what Marshall really is.

---

Scott: Oh, for crying out loud, Nina. Come on, get lost.

Nina: No, I’m not gonna get lost, Scott. You’re supposed to be preparing to fight for my right to be part of my grandson’s life, not getting a manicure.

Scott: Well, now, judges like well-manicured lawyers — not to mention your Aunt Liesl. She likes when my nails are clipped and polished and ready for action.

Nina: The state of your cuticles is not a high priority right now, Scott, since I got the advanced copy of the five-part series The Invader is going to run on me soon.

Scott: Yeah, I got it, too.

Nina: You got it?

Scott: Yes.

Nina: And so why are you so calm? They’re out to sabotage me even before I step foot in a courtroom.

Scott: Who’s “they”?

Nina: Michael and Willow. Who else?

---

Michael: This is a lot to process, okay? Dante could come back later —

Willow: Neil Byrne lost his medical license. He had a drug problem. Who’s to say he didn’t make up lies about my mother, create his own fantasy, blaming her for some imaginary adoption? The man was obviously delusional.

Dante: Okay, Willow, as I said earlier, the PCPD is not going to accept anything without further proof. But you have to ask yourself, why else would Harmony kill her psychiatrist and his brother if not to keep her secret protected?

Willow: I don’t know. But you want to know what I do know? My mother loved me. Maybe she wasn’t always the best mom, but whatever her crimes, she loved me as only a mother can love her child, especially now, before she…

Michael: No, no. [ Sighs ] My mom said that Harmony admitted the truth to her. She wouldn’t lie.

Carly: She said it to me again — well, to Alexis and me — on Rana Point. That’s why she attacked us. She was so desperate to keep her secret, and when it started coming out, she just lost it.

Michael: Maybe that’s what drove Harmony into the middle of the road without looking. She was focused on finding you, to tell you what she did and to seek forgiveness.

Willow: That’s what you were talking about in the chapel.

Carly: Yeah. I knew it would be a shock. I just wanted to give you a little time. That’s why I didn’t want to tell you last night. I didn’t tell Michael either.

Willow: I didn’t lose my mother last night. She was never mine in the first place.

---

Dex: Chet warned me you might tear up the résumé. He said you play by your own rules.

Sonny: But you brought the résumé anyway.

Dex: I’d rather be over-prepared than show up lacking.

Sonny: I like your philosophy. If — and that’s a big if — I have room for you in one of my businesses, then I need to know that you’re going to be able to take orders and follow them. No going rogue, and never think that you know better than me. Are we clear?

Dex: Crystal. I just need a chance to prove myself.

Sonny: What do you think we’re doing? I know you’re tough. You already proved that to me this morning. But being tough can only get you so far. Smart is the better way.

---

Brando: Everything okay?

TJ: Sasha’s CT didn’t indicate any serious injury, but there’s no reason for her to live with residual pain. So I recommended a painkiller.

Brando: Yeah, I noticed the script.

Sasha: It’s over the counter and non-habit-forming.

Brando: [ Scoffs ] Okay. Thanks for your help.

TJ: Any time.

Sasha: Now, if you two don’t mind, I would love to freshen up before I get back to work as the Face of Deception.

TJ: Of course.

Sasha: Thanks, Dr. Ashford.

TJ: Yeah.

Brando: Pick you up later?

Sasha: Yeah, of course. Yeah. [ Exhales deeply ]

[ Door closes ]

Sasha: What the hell are you doing here?

Felty: I saw your husband and doctor leaving. I thought I should check up on you. Missing something? I know just how you feel.

---

Valentin: I didn’t think that Sasha was capable of taking a bad picture.

Gladys: [ Sighs ] It’s not Sasha. It’s the creepy paparazzo who wouldn’t leave her alone.

Valentin: And how did you get your hands on his photos?

Gladys: How do you think?

Valentin: These were taken last night, I assume before Harmony Miller was run down.

Gladys: It was an accident.

Valentin: Well, you know that and I know that, but in the wrong hands, these photos tell a decidedly different story. Look.

---

Jordan: I thought you made peace with Marshall’s past.

Curtis: Easier said than done. After you refused to dig up my father’s sealed arrest records —

Jordan: I gave you my reasons why I wouldn’t help you with that.

Curtis: And I understood. Look, I wasn’t happy about it, but then I realized that I was putting you in an impossible situation.

Jordan: You found someone else to help you.

Curtis: Certain information came my way.

Jordan: What kind?

Curtis: The kind that you wouldn’t release to me.

Jordan: And how exactly did you manage that when I said no?

---

Scott: Your case is going to be decided in court, not on the pages of The Invader, so I suggest that you just chill out and get yourself a manicure.

Nina: The byline belongs to this guy, Grant Smoltz, and he’s half reporter, half pit bull, and, Scott, he’s painting me as this vengeful, homewrecking vixen out to get Wiley’s other grandmother, saint Carly.

Scott: Well, there’s nothing I can do about Smoltz and his slander, because everything that was said, is, you know, public record.

Nina: No. You don’t think that the judge is going to read that article and deny my petition for visitation? Do you really think that? I mean, out of the two grandmothers, who do you think the judge is going to have more sympathy for?

Scott: Well, you know what? There are two grandmothers involved in this, and one of them just died. So, Harmony Miller, compared to you — I mean, you’re like Mother Teresa.

Nina: So what are you thinking?

Scott: Harmony Miller is a suspect in two murders. She assaulted Carly and Alexis, and she’s dead. So I’m sure that Willow is all over the map right now and so is Michael.

Nina: And?

Scott: Well, we go to their barracuda lawyer and we say it behooves them to just drop this whole invader thing. Otherwise, we go to court and let the judge decide whose behavior is better, yours or a double murderer’s.

Diane: Nice try, counselor. But on behalf of my clients, the answer is, we will see you in court.

---

Willow: It makes A… scary kind of sense… and explains so much. Harmony isn’t my biological mother. Is that why she couldn’t find my birth certificate, why there was no official record of its existence?

Dante: Well, according to Alexis, that birth certificate never did exist. What Harmony gave you was forged.

Willow: Forged?

Carly: When you were a baby, Harmony took you from somebody else and claimed you as her own.

Willow: So I was kidnapped? Oh, my god. What else don’t I know?

Michael: Look, let’s take a break.

Willow: No, no! We cannot stop now. Everything I ever thought about my childhood is a lie. I have to know the truth.

---

Dex: I never went to college, Mr. Corinthos, but I served two tours. I have combat experience. I can handle myself under pressure when everything’s on the line.

Sonny: I appreciate the ability to handle trouble, but I don’t want my employees looking for trouble.

Dex: I kept my nose clean at the gym. I only mixed it up when I had to.

Sonny: Chet told me that, yeah.

Dex: If you keep your cool, you don’t have to mix it up. But if there’s no choice, I act quickly and make sure I’m the last man standing.

Sonny: I like your attitude, but attitude can only get you so far. Sooner or later, you’re gonna have to back it up.

---

Sasha: Get out.

Felty: What are you gonna do, scream for help? Or scream for one of those little pills you were about to swallow before I took your picture?

Sasha: Those pills are for migraines, like the one you gave me when you refused to leave me alone.

Felty: Those capsules are distinctive, and they’re not for migraines. They’re not pillow mints, either.

Sasha: You know what, if you hadn’t chased after me, I wouldn’t —

Felty: You wouldn’t have turned Harmony Miller into roadkill?

Sasha: [ Gasps ] You are disgusting! I hadn’t taken anything.

Felty: Only because I surprised you.

Sasha: [ Scoffs ]

Felty: Okay, listen, beauty. Far be it from me to spoil the Face of Deception. I just want my memory card. Those pictures are my bread and butter.

Sasha: Mine too.

Felty: Well, then, I’ll delete the ones I have of you and the spilled pills. I’ll even forget I ever saw them.

Sasha: [ Laughing ] Okay. I’m supposed to believe you?

Felty: Mm-hmm. Believe this. I have connections. I can get you what you need.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Felty: I just sent you my number. Give me a call, sooner rather than later. It’ll be our little secret.

---

Gladys: My daughter-in-law is grieving the loss of her baby. The doctor prescribed medication to help her cope.

Valentin: Well, I’m sympathetic. The loss of her child was tragic. Um… but she does have a public history of drug abuse, which was covered on “Good Morning America,” no less. So her with medication would raise red flags. She’s my business partner. She’s the ace of the company, and she’s the brand ambassador, so she represents a huge part of my investment.

Gladys: I couldn’t trust Sasha more if she was my own flesh and blood daughter. Now, if you’ll excuse me.

---

Jordan: How did you get your hands on your father’s sealed arrest records? You know what? Never mind. I don’t want to force you to tell the truth or compel you to lie. Both are bad.

Curtis: Very interesting. You seem to care more about how I found out about Marshall’s past, but not what I found out.

Jordan: Damn it, Curtis. I care about you.

---

Nina: Diane, if you would just listen —

Scott: Alright, Nina, Nina, Nina. Quiet, quiet, quiet. Diane, we know that your BFF’s roommate just died under very mysterious circumstances.

Diane: I think you’re talking about Alexis’s houseguest, not roommate, Harmony Miller.

Scott: AKA Willow Tate’s mommy. Now, if they want to really play hardball, we’ll make sure that the judge knows that one of the grandmas is a murderer.

Diane: You knock yourself out, counselor, because you see, Harmony Miller was not biologically related to Wiley, therefore had no standing. Therefore, it’s a nonstarter. I’m actually a little surprised at how fuzzy you are as counselor for the petitioner on this particular legal question at issue. You see, the only reason why your client has any standing to bring a petition at all is because she’s the biological grandmother. And the biological mother, convicted murderer and kidnapper Nelle Benson, is dead. It’s a technicality. It’s a loophole. But my clients are well within their rights to argue against visitation. And if you [Chuckles] care about that little boy the way you say you do, you will drop this claim before the invader article goes national.

---

Willow: You were with my mother just before she died. Did she tell you why she lied about me being her child?

Harmony: You need to protect her. Nina’s love will smother her. Please, Carly.

[ Monitor alarm beeping ]

Harmony: Please.

Carly: We’ll take care of her. I promise you, Willow will be okay. I promise you that.

Carly: Willow…

Willow: Carly, please. My whole life suddenly just became one big question mark. Did my mom — did Harmony tell you anything?

---

Dex: I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t ready to prove that you can trust me.

Sonny: Your service is impressive. And I saw what you can do at the gym. But there are other factors that I need to consider.

Dex: If you hire me, you’ll see what I bring.

[ Knock on door ]

Brando: Oh, you’re in a meeting. I’ll wait outside.

Sonny: No, the meeting’s over. Brando, Dex. Dex, Brando. Dex is gonna be at the bar. He’s going to have an espresso. He’s gonna wait.

Dex: Thank you, Mr. Corinthos. I appreciate your time.

Sonny: Close the door.

[ Door closes ]

Sonny: So, what? I heard about the accident. What — how’s Sasha?

Brando: Physically, she’s fine. Emotionally, you know… I mean, she just — she just began to deal with losing Liam, and then — then this happened, man.

Sonny: Must be tough. But you’re helping her cope, right?

Brando: I’m trying. I’m trying. Sasha thinks she needs to be strong for me, but I can’t seem to get through her defenses. That’s why I’m here. I’m hoping — I’m hoping you know what to do.

---

Sasha: When I said I wanted to meet, I thought it would be at the office. It’s a little early for happy hour. We’re still on the clock. [ Sighs ] You still have it.

Gladys: I was thinking of flushing it down the toilet.

Sasha: Do you even realize, if you would have taken one of these and they’d found it in your system? No. You have been given a second chance. Don’t…blow it.

Sasha: Don’t.

Gladys: Why not?

Sasha: Because the jerk wants it back.

Gladys: [ Scoffs ] I’ll just bet he does. Give me one good reason to say yes.

---

Jordan: I care about you. But it’s not like I still have feelings for you in that way, like I did when we were married. [ Sighs ] I mean, I do love you, but — [ Sighs ] Feel free to help me out of this hole I’m digging here.

Curtis: I get it. You don’t want me to get so caught up in Marshall’s past that I cross the line.

Jordan: If that happened, I wouldn’t be able to look the other way.

Curtis: I wouldn’t ask you to.

Jordan: As long as we’re clear.

Curtis: We’re clear.

Jordan: Alright, then. Was it worth whatever price you paid to find out what you wanted to know about Marshall?

TJ: Marshall? What about him?

---

Nina: Diane, I’m only doing this because I care about Wiley. I am not going to allow Wiley’s parents to deprive him of someone who really loves him and who he loves — especially now, because Harmony’s gone.

Scott: Yeah, so let me put it to you simply, okay? If you go ahead with Smoltz’s hatchet job, it is open season on Harmony.

Diane: And make Willow yet another innocent victim of Harmony? Please, by all means, be my guest.

Nina: Oh, Willow Tate is hardly an innocent victim. She refuses to stand up to Michael over and over again. She cut me out of Wiley’s life without batting an eyelash.

Diane: Perhaps your attorney has neglected to tell you this — big surprise — but Michael and Willow are Wiley’s parents, and it is their legal obligation, not to mention their moral and sacred duty, to do what they feel is in the best interest of that child while you, Ms. Reeves, have a documented and provable history of emotional and mental instability. If you would like to avoid further embarrassment, further public humiliation, withdraw that claim.

Nina: Diane, let me make this perfectly clear. If Willow and Michael insist on dragging me through the mud, I’ll return the favor and drag them right along with me.

---

Willow: There’s something my mother told you before she died, something I should know.

Carly: Willow, I think Dante’s right. There’s a lot of questions that need to be answered.

Dante: First off, I’d like you to take a DNA test. That way, we can rule out any blood relation between you and Harmony.

Michael: That makes sense, but Willow’s already been through the wringer. Can’t that wait for a little bit?

Dante: Well, it can, Michael, but look, if you want answers to these questions, which it seems like you really do, the sooner you take this test, the better.

Willow: Michael’s right. I, um… I need time to digest everything I’ve learned.

Dante: Okay. I guess I’ll check back in tomorrow. I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Carly: I’m going to take off, too. Yeah. Hey.

Michael You gonna be okay?

Carly: Yeah. Yeah. Been a crazy day. Stay strong for Willow.

Michael: Yeah.

Carly: Yeah. You know what? The answers will come when you’re ready. I told Harmony that I would protect you, and I will.

Willow: Protect me from what?

---

Dex: I recognize Brando from the gym. He’s Mr. Corinthos’… nephew?

Frank: Cousin.

Dex: Mr. Corinthos is famous for his coffee and his loyalty. You’ve got to admire both.

Brando: I’m sorry for imposing. You have enough troubles without my adding to them.

Sonny: No, listen, you can always come to me. Lesson number one — when you’re family, your troubles are my troubles.

Brando: And vice versa.

Sonny: Absolutely.

Brando: What’s lesson number two?

Sonny: If you love someone, don’t wait for them to come to you. Sasha’s in pain. Let her know that you’re not scared, that you’re not looking for a way out.

Brando: I’m there for the good and the bad, just like I said in my marriage vows.

Sonny: Absolutely. Putting her first, you cannot go wrong. I know she’s going to say to you, “Look, I’m okay.” And you got to trust that, you got to respect her. But… if there are any warning signs, do not ignore that.

Brando: I’ll make sure that she knows, if she falls, I will catch her.

Sonny: You do that, you can’t go wrong.

---

Sasha: The memory card has all the photographer’s photos, not only mine. If we give it back, then maybe he’ll leave us alone.

Gladys: As long as I have this little card in my hand, we’re in the driver’s seat. Oh, pardon the expression.

Sasha: [ Sighs ]

Gladys: You make my son happy, and what makes Brando happy makes me happy. So if there’s something else, something interfering with Brando’s happiness, I will protect you. Which means you can trust me with anything.

---

Jordan: Hi, my busy doctor son. Mm. As much as I’d love to stay and chat, your uncle has something he wants to talk to you about. When was the last time you slept?

TJ: [ Sighs ]

Jordan: You look tired, baby.

TJ: I was all set to go home, Dr. Westbourne okayed it, and then we got slammed, so I stayed.

Jordan: I admire your dedication. But don’t forget to take care of yourself.

TJ: I know. Dr. Westbourne literally just said the same thing, and Molly’s on board.

Jordan: Okay, well, I need to get back to my own job. I love you, baby.

TJ: I love you. It’s good to see you.

Jordan: Good to see you.

TJ: So, you were saying about Marshall?

Curtis: I ran into your mom by accident, but I wanted to talk to you about your grandfather.

TJ: You saved me a trip. There’s something I want to show you.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Dante: Oh, hey, Jordan. Uh, I just came from seeing Willow Tate.

Jordan: And?

Dante: I tried to break the news to her gently.

Jordan: Did she agree to give you a DNA sample to confirm she’s not Harmony Miller’s biological daughter?

Dante: No. I got some pushback from Michael.

Jordan: I don’t blame them. Willow needs time to grieve. Give her a night to process, see if she and Michael are more open to it tomorrow. In the meantime, I have a more pressing job for you.

Dante: What’s more pressing than proving that Harmony wasn’t Willow’s birth mother?

Jordan: Finding out who was.

---

Scott: I’m sure it’s not going to come down to mutually assured destruction. Will it, Diane?

Diane: If Nina wants a fight to the bitter end, so be it.

Scott: Hmm.

Diane: I’m going to find a new nail salon.

Nina: Diane, just wait one second. Wiley, he needs all of his family, right? Now more than ever. And I understand that Willow’s whole world has shattered, I do. But don’t punish that little boy because of Willow’s pain.

Diane: Nina, you seem to think that depriving Wiley of your presence would be a punishment. Court may not agree with you.

Scott: Ahh. Don’t let her get to you.

Nina: You’re right. She is a barracuda. But whatever Michael is paying her to drive me out of Wiley’s life, it’s just a waste of his money.

Scott: Okay, so it sounds to me it’s all-out war.

Nina: It’s war. It is.

Scott: Okay. Alright, good. Then you’ve changed your mind.

Nina: About what?

Scott: Sonny. You’ve got to let me put him up on the stand.

---

Michael: Sounds like Harmony wanted my mom to protect you from the truth about all the lines that she crossed.

Willow: Harmony was probably delirious. Most end-of-life patients are. She couldn’t prevent the truth from coming out. But now that I know she wasn’t my birth mother…

Wiley: Mommy!

Melanie: Someone missed his mommy.

Willow: Not half as much as his mommy missed him.

---

Valentin: I was hoping that Drew Cain would wait a little longer to take an interest in ELQ. Your girlfriend has promised to vote to support me as CEO, but her vote only counts as a tiebreak, so I am afraid that my days are numbered.

Carly: Bad news?

Valentin: Oh, it’s just business. It’s nothing life-threatening.

Carly: Hmm.

Valentin: I heard about Harmony Miller’s incident. Glad you weren’t harmed.

Carly: Thank you.

Valentin: I imagine Willow Tate is pretty badly shaken.

Carly: Now, why would you care about that?

Valentin: Well, Willow was my daughter’s third grade teacher, and after a rocky start, she was actually pretty good for her.

Carly: That doesn’t surprise me. Willow’s a wonderful person.

Valentin: Yeah, who is now grieving her mother and facing a prolonged court battle with Nina. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Carly: And Nina got to you.

Valentin: Imagine if we could get our priorities straight, Carly. And you could lead the way by making peace with Nina.

---

Brando: You learn anything more about that attempted robbery at Charlie’s?

Sonny: That’s not your concern. You take care of Sasha. I’ll take care of everything else.

---

Sasha: Thanks for looking out for me, Gladys. But, um, don’t you think that returning the memory card would be a gesture of good faith? You know, maybe one day, he’ll return the favor. I’ve got to get back to work. So should you.

After I finish my drink.

---

Curtis; Hey, that’s —

TJ: Marshall’s. I know. This is also from him.

Curtis: [ Sighs ] “I wanted to leave you a gift, but all I have to offer is this gift of music. Like you said about surgery, it’s part of one great, unfinished symphony. Your loving grandfather.”

TJ: Do you know what he means?

Curtis: It means your grandfather left town because of me.

---

Dante: To find Willow’s birth mother, I need to start with Harmony Miller.

Jordan: Dig up anything you can find on Harmony’s background before she came to Port Charles. Somewhere out there, a mother is missing her daughter.

---

Nina: No, nothing has changed. Just leave Sonny out of it. But Michael — Michael is fair game.

Scott: Only Michael?

Nina: No. And Willow. Willow also. Because she has the keys to unlocking the door that’s blocking my access to my grandson. What is — what is that saying? When someone looks like they’re too good to be true —

Scott: They’re usually not.

Nina: There must be something about Willow Tate that we can uncover, Scott. And I want you to keep digging until you find it.

---

Carly: So, what is it about Nina that makes otherwise rational men come to her defense?

Valentin: When does the hurting stop? When do we stop attacking one another and get on with our lives?

Carly: You should ask Nina that question. She kept Sonny from his family for nine months, and then she slept with him. Now she’s petitioning the court to allow her to visit my grandson.

Valentin: Well, he’s her grandson, as well. And from her perspective, you cost her a daughter, so… why don’t we just end this?

---

Wiley: Why are you crying, mommy? Do you have a boo-boo?

Willow: No, no. They’re — they’re happy tears, sweetie, because I am sitting here with you and Daddy, the two most important men in my life.

Michael: Hey, bud. I think that Annabel II really, really misses you. So why don’t you go back to the house with Melanie, and your Mommy and I will meet you and Annabel there very soon, okay?

Wiley: Promise?

Michael: Promise.

Wiley: Okay.

[ Door closes ]

Willow: Wiley’s lucky. He’s young. Barely knew his grandma Harmony. Whatever pain he might feel about never seeing her again will heal.

Michael: And, um… and yours?

Willow: I don’t know. [ Sniffles ] I just keep asking myself the same question — if Harmony isn’t my birth mother… who is?

On the next “General Hospital” —

TJ (to Curtis): Was it worth losing the one chance you had with your father?

Cameron (to Spencer): I need to know that the hell that I’ve been catching is worth it.

Nina (to Ava): This time it’ll be on my orders.

Valentin (to Carly): Can you really tell me there’s no part of you that feels for me.

Esme: I intend to be happy.

Sonny: Chet. Long time, no see.

Chet: Good to see you, Mr. Corinthos. Thank you again for the time off.

Sonny: How’d the trip to the Middle East go?

Chet: Oh, [Sighs] It was, uh — it was incredible. I wasn’t really sure how I’d feel being back in the country, but bringing those supplies to the nonprofit and sharing my story with the other wounded vets — I don’t know — it gave me a sense of closure I didn’t realize I needed.

Sonny: I’m glad the trip made a difference. You — you’re helping a lot of people.

Chet: Yeah, well, I tried.

And I’m also glad you’re back.

Yeah, well, I’m glad to be back. Turns out, I have a lot to look forward to now that I’m home.

---

Terry: What’s more date-worthy, biz — red or sparkly?

Elizabeth: Is this why you insisted I come with you — color consultation?

Terry: Uh, we needed a girls’ outing. You’ve been working too much.

Elizabeth: I’m trying to save up so Cameron can live in the dorms instead of semi-permanently crashing with friends. Getting my nails done is not a luxury I can afford.

Terry: No worries. It’s my treat.

Elizabeth: And normally I wouldn’t worry, except you never want anyone to come with you to the nail salon. This is your meditative time.

Terry: Well, after meditating on it, I’ve decided it’s time for a new tradition.

Elizabeth: Terry, what’s really going on? Uh…you know, there’s paraffin treatments in there.

Terry: [ Sighs ] Fine. Alright. I do have something to confess, and you’re not gonna like it.

---

[ Indistinct conversations ]

[ Telephones ringing in distance ]

Britt: Heard it was a rough night.

TJ: I lost my first patient.

Britt: Always tough.

TJ: She wasn’t exactly a stranger. I mean, Harmony miller may have been bad news, but telling her daughter, “So sorry. We — we did everything we could” — it was… it was worse than I could ever imagine.

Britt: And did you? Do everything you could?

TJ: And we did.

Britt: Then you’re good.

TJ: Doesn’t feel that way.

Britt: [ Sighs ] Nothing prepares you for that first one.

---

Brook Lynn: I’m so sorry about Willow’s mom.

Michael: Thanks. I’ll, uh — I’ll tell Willow when she wakes up.

Brook Lynn: Thanks. And, Carly, I — I can’t even imagine.

Carly: Oh, that was rough. But I’m okay.

Brook Lynn: Never had any doubts. I’ll see you later, sweetie. Bye.

Carly: [ Laughs ]

[ Wind rushing ]

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Brook Lynn: Oh. Oh, my god. It is so good to hear your voice. After the day I’ve had, and it’s only noon.

Chase: What’s going on? Are you okay?

Brook Lynn: Just too much reality. I need a fantasy fix. We’re still on for the screening later, right?

Chase: [ Gasps ] Oh, it’s, uh, May the 4th.

Brook Lynn: Last I checked. Did you forget?

Chase: Oh, it’s just we got those tickets ages ago and, uh… I have another commitment.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ] Like what, a date?

Chase: Yes, actually. And I’m pretty sure her dad doesn’t let her watch PG movies. I’ll talk to you later.

Violet: Pink or purple?

---

Michael: Yeah, Willow was so exhausted last night. I was, uh — I was worried she was gonna be too upset to sleep, but she sat on the bed to take her shoes off. By the time I turned back around, she was already asleep with her clothes still on.

Carly: Well, it’s a good thing that Willow’s getting some rest. She’s gonna need her strength with what’s to come.

---

Chet: How’d my temporary replacement do?

Sonny: Uh, Dex? Um, I-I only met him briefly. He’s — you know, he seemed capable.

Chet: Good. Well, I took a chance on him because he’s a fellow vet and he had experience in gym management, so I just…

Sonny: Yeah.

Chet: I just hope he met your expectations.

Sonny: Well, the — the transition was seamless. And the staff, no complaints.

Chet: Well, as long as he wasn’t better at my job than I am.

Sonny: No, no danger to that.[ Laughs ]

Dante: Hey, Chet.

Chet: Hey.

Dante: Good to see you back, man.

Chet: Yeah, thanks.

Sonny: You’re here early. I am, yeah.

Dante: I, uh — I left you a message.

Sonny: Ah, well, I was gonna call you. What’s up?

Dante; You haven’t heard?

Chet: Uh, first day. I’m going to go take care of the handoff.

Sonny: Yeah. What’s going on?

Dante: Carly and Alexis were attacked last night.

---

Chase: Ooh, it’s so hard to choose.

Violet: Last time, you wore pink.

Chase: Right, because I thought you preferred purple. I do, but when it’s on my head, I can’t see it. That’s why daddy usually picks purple.

Chase: Oh. Speaking of, your dad called me this morning, and he said he’s so excited to see you tonight, and then he blew you a big kiss, like this. Mwah!

Violet: [ Giggles ] You’re gonna have to call him back so you can blow him a kiss from me.

Chase: Or you could do it yourself.

Violet: That’s true.

Chase: Do you know what else is true? With your dad away, we could spend the whole day together. What do you want to do?

Violet: Tea party.

Chase: That’s an option. Or we could take a walk in the park, see the ducks in the lake.

Violet: Hm. Tea party.

Chase: Or we could go to the aquarium. I bet they have purple fish and all the sea creatures there.

Violet: Tea par-ty.

Chase: That’s three tea parties in less than 24 hours, Violet.

Violet: You can never have too many tea parties.

Chase: Noted.

---

Terry: Today’s mani-pedi is actually being underwritten by a generous benefactor, one who’s concerned about the amount of stress you’ve been under.

Elizabeth: Ah. Okay, thank you for telling me. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go kill Finn.

Terry: Hey, hey, hey. Can you kill him after you get your nails done? You need this.

Elizabeth: One afternoon is not going to make me forget everything that’s going on.

Terry: And what exactly is “everything”? You’ve been tired, irritable. And the fact that Finn asked me to take you on this little outing only confirms that things are bigger than you’ve told me.

Elizabeth: I can handle it.

Terry: Right, so who done it, then, hmm? Who slashed your dress and stashed your wedding ring in your locker? Who burned down Franco’s studio, took his portrait of you, and left it at your house? If you’re handling it, you must know, then.

Elizabeth: I don’t enjoy you when you’re like this.

Terry: And yet you should be used to it by now. Come on. Enough with the silence and pretense. You’re telling me everything.

Elizabeth: Okay. Okay.

Terry: And don’t forget, I’ve known you longer than anyone, so don’t even think about holding back, because I’ll know.

---

Britt: As much as I hate to say this, Harmony Miller is only the first of many.

TJ: Patients I’ll lose in the future? [ Sighs ] Can’t wait.

Britt: It may not be comforting, but it’s the truth. [ Sighs ]

[ Cup taps lightly ]

Britt: How are you doing?

Amy: Dr. Westbourne! Hi, Dr. Ashford. Dr. Westbourne.

Britt: Hi, Nurse Driscoll. Is there something I can do for you?

Amy: Yes, at least I hope so. I agreed to work a double, but I’m not feeling well, so I was hoping…

Britt: Did you check with Epiphany?

Amy: She said it’s okay with her if it’s okay with you. And I just conducted my final patient rounds, and the beds on the floor and in the er are at below half capacity.

Britt: Okay, off you go. [ Chuckles ] Feel better. [ Sighs ] Okay. Where were we?

TJ: Uh, how — how am I doing? Y-you know, I did — I did everything I could to save my patient, and I still lost her, so I feel — I-I feel helpless, useless, defeated. You know, part of me wants to scream and — and throw my coffee against the wall. I just…

Britt: Well, TJ, you are a doctor, and this is a hospital. There are plenty of fantastic places to scream if you muffle the noise. [ Chuckles ]

TJ: [ Sighs ]

Britt: Try a few and pick your favorite.

TJ: I’ll do that. Thank you.

---

Dante: Uh, Carly and Alexis, they’re at home recovering, but, you know, they’re — they’re pretty rattled.

Sonny: Harmony — where is she now?

Dante: She’s dead.

Sonny: Dead? How?

Dante: She tried to make a getaway on foot and a car hit her. That’s all I can tell you right now.

Sonny: Okay. I gotta call Carly.

Dante: What’s the matter?

Sonny: No, it’s just — there was just a time when Carly would — would have called me for something like this, or the hospital would have contacted me as next of kin. But now that, you know, in the eyes of the law, we’re not family anymore, so…

Dante: Well, you know, families aren’t made and broken with emergency contact information.

Sonny: But they’re all — it’s family. There should always be, you know, trust. Care. I’m always gonna care for Carly the rest of my life. But now, you know, she just doesn’t want anything to do with me.

---

Carly: Keep that up, you’re going to wear a groove in the floor.

Michael: Yeah, I know, I’m just — I’m just still reeling about what happened. I mean, Willow was just starting to regain trust with Harmony, and now she has to deal with this?

Wiley: What about grandma Harmony?

Michael: Um…

Carly: What color do you want to color the car?

Wiley: Uh, blue.

Carly: Blue it is. Get going, alright? Um… you’re going to have to watch it.

Michael: I know. It’s — I-I just — I-I don’t understand what led Harmony to do what she did at Rana Point. I don’t, but… the police are investigating. That means this is gonna go public. Yeah. And the press is going to jump all over it. I know. I managed to stall Aurora’s digital press, but I can’t control all media. Eventually, this is going to come out, and I just don’t know how to protect Willow from the fallout.

---

Violet: How were the refreshments, Princess Brandywine?

Chase: [ Clears throat ] [ British accent ] Why, Lady Honeycutt, I do believe these are the finest scones I’ve ever had the good fortune to nibble on.

Violet: Why, thank you.

[ Knock on door ]

Chase: [ Normal voice ] Whoever you are, I owe you.

[ Lightsabers activate ]

Brook Lynn: [Laughing] May the 4th be with you.

Chase: I know, I know.

Brook Lynn: Ah! Tell me, young Skywalker, is that a Jedi tiara or a Sith tiara, hmm?

Violet: Uncle Chase is Princess Brandywine.

Chase: Ah. Yes, uh… Lady Honeycutt speaks the truth. [ British accent ] I am Princess Brandywine.

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ] Well, then, call me Han Solo because I arrived in the nick of time.

---

Elizabeth: So now the boys and I are living apart. Aiden’s discussing Ouija boards with Lucy Coe, and I can’t even escape this menace in a hotel room. And that brings us to now.

Terry: Oh, my god, biz. I can’t believe you’ve been dealing with all this. You should have told me.

Elizabeth: [ Sighs ] I mean, the police are on the case, and Finn’s been really supportive. What more could you have done besides worry?

Terry: Offer my support? Someone to vent to? My home?

Elizabeth: Finn offered his home as well, but whatever this is, it followed me to the metro court. I don’t want it following me to your house.

Terry: Wait, “whatever” this is? Don’t you mean “whoever”?

Elizabeth: Aiden believes it’s franco’s ghost. And do you actually think he’s right? That you’re being stalked by franco’s ghost?

[ Door opens, closes ]

Elizabeth: Amy.

---

Dante: Look, you won’t know if Carly wants you to check in with her unless you reach out.

Sonny: Someone tries to kill Carly — she doesn’t reach out to me? Same thing with Michael? That sends a message. They don’t want anything to do with me.

Dante: What message? What do you — maybe they’re just catching their breath…

Sonny: Okay.

Dante: …Right now.

Sonny: Alright.

Dante: Come on.

Sonny: No, I’m just saying.

Dante: Look, last night was a crazy night. Alexis and Carly were still being treated when Harmony was brought in. I mean, it — we’re all still just trying to pick up the pieces of what happened. And then Michael, he was worried a-about Carly and Willow and maybe just too distracted to contact you, even if he thought about it. Even if he wanted to. I don’t know.

Sonny: Michael didn’t want to, but that’s his choice.

Dante: [ Sighs ] I guess so.

Sonny: Yeah.

Dante: You taking care of yourself?

Sonny: Uh… of course I am.

Dante: You lost your best friend, your wife, and now son.

Sonny: Thanks for reminding me.

Dante: Well, I’m not trying to remind you — I’m just trying to make you see that you’re getting more and more isolated, and sometimes, when that happens, we both know you can get vulnerable.

---

Michael: There’s just one thing I don’t understand about all this.

Carly: Just one?

Michael: As crazy as what, uh, Harm– actually, let’s — let’s go over here. As crazy as what Harmony did at Rana Point, I mean, what pushed her that far? I mean, she seemed like she was in a good place. She was rebuilding with Willow. And what she tried to do, it — it — it was so outrageous that it was guaranteed to fail — I mean, thank God, but she must’ve known that. So why jeopardize her relationship with Willow?

Carly: And this little guy.

Michael: Exactly. She was obviously desperate, and then… [ Scoffs ] I probably didn’t help that.

---

Sonny: You saying I’m vulnerable or my business is vulnerable? What are you — I don’t — I’m not sure what you’re trying to say.

Dante: Well, I can’t speak to your business for obvious reasons, but as your son right now, I’m just saying that I’m concerned. I don’t want you to start drinking again or get off your meds.

Sonny: Well, you’re not wrong, and I appreciate your concern.

Dante: Okay.

Sonny: But I got it handled.

Dante: On the drinking or the meds?

Sonny: Both.

Dante: Alright. [ Clears throat ] What about the loneliness? You got that handled, too?

Sonny: You know, let me just say this — you don’t have to worry about me. [ Breathing sharply ]

Dante: Alright. Good enough. I gotta go to the Quartermaines’ and talk to Willow, alright?

Sonny: Alright.

Dante: See you around.

Sonny: Alright, see you later.

---

TJ: I almost wish I could compartmentalize my emotions.

Britt: No chief wants robots populating their staff.

TJ: You don’t want doctors lined up outside the call room, taking turns having a good cry, right?

Britt: I don’t know. Sounds pretty good to me.

Mm.

[ Telephones ringing in distance ]

Britt: It wasn’t that long ago I had to deliver devastating news to new parents.

TJ: Brando and Sasha?

Britt: [ Sighs ] Feeling too much and feeling too little, both have their drawbacks. But given the choice, I want medical professionals who treat patients using their heart as well as their head.

TJ: My — my favorite professor always said that good doctoring comes from good listening, and good listening can’t always be taught.

Britt: It’s also not billable.

TJ: [ Chuckles ] Yeah.

Britt: The trick is to combine compassion with efficient care.

TJ: You make that sound really easy.

Britt: Oh, no, it — it’s not. [ Laughs ] But it is doable. Tell me, TJ, what kind of doctor do you want to be?

---

Elizabeth: Amy, come join us.

Amy: Uh, I’m here for a manicure, not a pedicure, but thanks.

Terry: I thought you were working a double.

Amy: I was, but I wasn’t feeling well after last night.

Terry: Were you prescribed a cuticle trim?

Amy: I’ll find another salon.

Elizabeth: No, no, no, no. You don’t have to do that. We can save shoptalk for when we get back to work. Okay?

Amy: No, not okay. Dr. Randolph, why are you always picking on me lately? We’re not even at the hospital and you’re getting all up in my business.

Terry: Because, to the best of my knowledge, you’re supposed to be at the hospital.

Amy: Dr. Ashford lost his first patient last night. I was working with him. We couldn’t save her. It got to me.

Terry: I’m sorry to hear that.

Amy: Thank you.

Terry: And I have my job to do.

Amy: Well, I don’t like the way you’re doing it, and I’m probably not the only one.

Terry: Which is why staff are given the opportunity to evaluate hospital leadership quarterly.

Amy: Well, I may forgo that and march straight to Monica.

Terry: Knock yourself out, Amy. We’re done.

Elizabeth: Hey, Amy, I understand that you’re upset, but let’s all just take a deep breath, you guys.

Terry: It’s fine, Elizabeth. Amy’s entitled to her anger.

Amy: Oh, gee, thank you.

Terry: You’re also entitled to file a formal complaint with the board. What you’re not entitled to do is try to ruin my day off.

Amy: [ Scoffs ]

Elizabeth: Finn was right. It’s definitely got my mind off of my problems.

---

Chase: You are so my hero.

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ]

Chase: Did you pick these up on the way over?

Brook Lynn: Are you kidding? All the good lightsabers are gone by the end of April. My dad actually got these a while back for Rocco and Leo. Since you couldn’t go to “Star Wars,” I thought I’d bring “Star Wars” to you.

[ Lightsabers whirring ]

Chase: I glad you remembered.

Brook Lynn: Of course I remembered.

Chase: Why “of course”? Well, it’s a very important day in this galaxy, and it’s really important to you.

Violet: Uncle Chase, come sword fight with me.

Brook Lynn: You heard the princess.

Chase: Hey, that is mine. Well… okay, Violet, first of all, this is called a lightsaber, and it is the ancient and sacred weapon of the warriors known as the Jedi. Wah!

[ Lightsabers bleeping ]

Chase: Unh! Wsssh! Aaah!

---

Michael: I was always so guarded with Harmony, and she felt it. You know, maybe if I was more accepting, she would have been honest.

Carly: Stop that. No one made Harmony do what she did. She made the choice to hurt people.

[ Knock on door ]

Michael: [ Sighs ] Hey, Dante.

Dante: Hey, everybody.

Wiley: Hi, Uncle Dante.

[ Door closes ]

Dante: Hey, pal, how you doing?

Carly: So, are you here to see Willow?

Dante: Yeah. Is she resting? If so, I can come back another time.

Carly: Oh.

Michael: Hey, bud, your mom’s awake. She could use a hug.

Carly: Willow, what can we do for you?

Willow: Hugs help.

Carly: Well, then I’m next in line. [ Chuckles ]

Willow: Aww.

Carly: Oh, I’m so sorry. Alright, why don’t I take this little guy up to the main house, alright? And I’ll be right back. Come on. Let’s go get some yummy snacks in the big house.

Michael: How you holding up?

[ Door closes ]

Willow: Last night was…

Michael: Overwhelming?

Dante: Hey, Willow, um… I do have more information for you, if you feel like you’re ready for it.

---

Chet: Mr. Corinthos, if you have a minute, Dex would like to say goodbye. It’s his, uh, last day here.

Dex: Thank you for the opportunity, Mr. Corinthos. I hope my work was satisfactory.

Sonny: Listen, if — if I ever need anybody to replace Chet, I’ll give you a call. What’s next for you?

Dex: Not sure. Ideally, I’d love to stay on here in some other capacity.

Chet: Well, I wish we had a more permanent position for you at the gym, but we’re fully staffed.

Dex: Till something opens up, I’m — I’m more than happy to scrub floors, fix equipment, wash towels. I mean, no job is too big or small. I’m just asking for a chance.

---

Elizabeth: Since when is there friction between you and Amy?

Terry: I’ve had to call her out a few times. Nurse Driscoll thinks it’s personal, but it really isn’t. I shouldn’t lose my temper. It’s unprofessional. And even worse, it causes frown lines.

Elizabeth: Well, then, let’s talk about something that makes you smile, like your secret “lovah.”

Terry: Uh, he is not my “lovah.” And it’s not a secret, I just don’t want to jinx it.

Elizabeth: [ Sighs ] If not his name, give me something.

Terry: He’s funny and handsome, a real gentleman, and he looks great in a t-shirt. [ Chuckles ]

Elizabeth: Go on.

Terry: I met him a few months ago. We had a drink on Valentine’s, and then he had to leave town.

Elizabeth: Oh, well, that’s not a good sign.

Terry: We kept in touch. And, my god, Biz, the man gives great text.

Elizabeth: Oh, gee. Sounds like you’re in trouble.

Terry: [ Laughs ] Hey, speaking of trouble, are you gonna be okay at the hotel tonight?

[ Water bubbling ]

Elizabeth: I just forgot to latch the door. It’s not gonna happen again.

Terry: Did you at least call hotel security?

Elizabeth: [ Sighs ] Hotel security, the police, and nothing seems to help. I don’t know, maybe nothing can.

Terry: The ghost theory.

Elizabeth: I know you’re a woman of science, and so am I. But at this point, I’m willing to try everything.

Terry: Whatever eases your mind.

Elizabeth: Great. So will you go someplace with me later this week?

Terry: Can you be more specific?

Elizabeth: Why? You already trust me. You don’t need to know.

Terry: Unfortunately, that’s true.

Elizabeth: Great. But right now, I need to get back to work, and you need to prep for your hot date.

Terry: Mm. [ Chuckles ]

---

Brook Lynn: Mmm, my word, Lady Honeycutt, this tea is delicious.

Violet: Thank you, Queen Marshmallow.

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ] Please tell me you have something strong and real to put in these cups.

Chase: Oh, now you know my pain.

Brook Lynn: [ Chuckles ]

Violet: The tea is orange spice, daddy’s favorite.

Brook Lynn: Oh. Is daddy working today?

Violet: He had an emergency at the hospital. He is saving lives.

Brook Lynn: I know. Finn helps a lot of people.

Violet: Chase helps a lot of people, too.

Brook Lynn: Right, police officers certainly help people, and your Uncle Chase is one of the best.

Chase: I miss it.

Brook Lynn: It’s just a few more weeks. [ Clears throat ] You hear that, Violet? Your Uncle Chase is gonna be back to saving the galaxy very soon, just like Luke — Luke…

Chase: Skywalker?

Brook Lynn: Right. Skywalker. How could I forget?

Chase: It’s too bad we’re not going to the movie tonight. You could use a refresher.

Brook Lynn: Well, maybe we can have a private screening someday soon.

---

TJ: I want to be the kind of doctor that — that people are happy to see again. And I want them to trust me, to know that I will move heaven and earth for them. And — and to be the kind of doctor that can provide solace when healing is impossible.

Britt: And how’s that going for you so far?

TJ: I did all I could to save Harmony. But when I had to break the news to her daughter last night, every bit of confidence, all of my training went out the window, and I felt completely out of my depth.

Britt: Well, Dr. Ashford, congratulations. You’re still human. [ Chuckles ] But you can’t tell when the losses are gonna hit. You could go a whole year without one.

TJ: Mm.

Britt: And then you could have three in one hour.

TJ: Damn.

Britt: You may need to learn not to internalize every loss. I mean, that is — that takes a toll.

TJ: What do you suggest?

Britt: Self-care. I-I know it’s an overused, crunchy granola term these days, but the whole concept of putting an oxygen mask on first on an airplane — you have to take care of you first. I know it sounds selfish, but it’s the first step in helping others.

TJ: I-I will remember that, but do you have any recommendations or suggestions for self-care?

Britt: Uh, I mean, find something that brings you peace. For some people, it’s exercise and therapy — for others, it’s a hobby or spending time with loved ones. You’ve been here all night, right?

TJ: And I still have all day.

Britt: While you were worrying about Willow’s family, have you had time to check in on your own? How’s Molly doing after her mom was attacked?

TJ: I spoke with her briefly, and — and she’s upset, of course, but, you know, she’s Molly.

Britt: I don’t know what that means.

[ Both laugh ]

TJ: Okay. Not only is she holding it together, but she’s holding everyone together.

Britt: That sounds rough. It’s a lot. You’ve had a rough night. Just say the word, and I can have you covered.

TJ: You mean…?

Britt: I mean, I’m saying you can go home. [ Laughs ] This is the time, TJ, in the beginning of your career where you have to determine what matters most to you and make it a priority. Otherwise, you can count on having many more dark, lonely nights of the soul. [ Sighs ]

---

Dante: Uh, you want to sit down? Uh, officially, I’m here to update you on our investigation.

Willow: And unofficially? Well, unofficially, um…

[ Door opens ]

Carly: Hey. Okay. What’d I miss?

Michael: We just got started.

Carly: Oh.

Dante: Unofficially, I’m here as family.

Willow: Thank you. But please just tell me why my mother tried to kill Carly and Alexis last night.

Carly: At Alexis’s house, I found papers that implicated Harmony in a crime, and to stop me from exposing it, Harmony attacked me and drugged me.

Willow: I know all that. What I don’t know is why. What was my mother trying to hide?

Dante: Harmony had killed before.

---

Violet: Thank you for making my tea party such a delightful occasion.

Brook Lynn: Mm.

Violet: I’m gonna go clean this up now. Don’t have any fun without me.

Chase: [ Laughs ]

Brook Lynn: [ Chuckles ] Aww, Violet wanted to clean up by herself? I’ll never be able to raise a kid who’s half as well-mannered as her.

Chase: Are you kidding me? You’re gonna be a great mom.

Brook Lynn: I don’t know.

Chase: I’ve seen you in action, remember?

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ]

Chase: Uh, how’s Leo? Is he feeling any better about his upcoming performance?

Brook Lynn: He’s still nervous, but you definitely helped.

Chase: I think we helped. We make a good team.

Brook Lynn: But there’s only so much we could do. I mean, drama therapy is definitely helping, but stage fright is very, very real.

Chase: Even when you’re not the one performing?

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ]

Chase: Have you written any songs lately?

Brook Lynn: Nope. [ Scoffs ]

Chase: You are a gifted songwriter, Brook Lynn.

Brook Lynn: I-I used to be. I mean, what if my new stuff isn’t — what if it isn’t… [ Sighs ]

Chase: There’s only one way to find out.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ]

Chase: I get it, you know.

Brook Lynn: Really?

Chase: Sure. I haven’t done my job in so long. I mean, what if I can’t remember how to do it?

Brook Lynn: You’re a pro. It’ll be like riding a bike.

Chase: If you can have this much faith in me, why can’t you do the same for yourself?

---

Terry: [ Laughs ]

Elizabeth: Well, thanks for our girls’ outing.

Terry: Make sure you thank Finn, too.

Elizabeth Ohh.

Terry: Preferably before you kill him for being considerate of your feelings.

Elizabeth: [ Laughs ]

Terry: He should know by now how much kindness annoys you.

Elizabeth: Seriously, what is wrong with that guy?

Terry:[ Laughs ]

Elizabeth: And thanks for the ride back. You didn’t need to.

Terry: No worries. I left something in my office.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Terry: Let me know the day of our mystery appointment.

Elizabeth: And let me know how your date goes.

Terry: [ Chuckles ] Britt, did you know that Amy Driscoll blew off her second shift for a manicure?

Britt: I did tell her she could leave early, but a manicure? Good for her.

Terry: Excuse me? [ Laughs ]

Britt: She lost a patient last night.

Terry: [ Scoffs ] And it sucks that Amy had a rough night, but it doesn’t excuse the way she spoke to me.

Britt: I’ll address it with her.

Terry: I was just going to have Epiphany talk to her.

Britt: I—I’d like a shot at it. Use the carrot instead of the stick. It’s–it’s a thing I’m trying.

Terry: Okay. Thanks. Let me know how it goes.

Britt: That’s not what you’re wearing on your date, is it?

Terry: [ Laughs ]

---

Sonny: I appreciate your hustle. Uh, I don’t think — we don’t have any jobs right now.

Dex: It was worth a try. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, am I right?

Sonny: Good attitude.

Amy: Chet.

Chet: What? Uh, excuse me. Family awaits.

Sonny: Okay, speaking of family, I got to make a call. So don’t be a stranger, Dex.

Dex: Absolutely.

[ Men grunting ]

Sonny: Carly? Hi. Um, I heard about last night. I just — I just want to make sure you’re okay.

[ Men grunting ]

Sonny: What the hell?!

Dex: Knock it off!

Man: Come on, kid! Come on, kid!

Dex: This is not some back alley! Have some respect. Come on.

---

Dante: The body of Brendon Byrne surfaced off pier 54. We have evidence that Harmony murdered him.

Willow: But why would my mother kill Brendon Byrne? Did he have a connection to Dawn of Day and Shiloh?

Dante: Well, the only connection we are aware of is that he was Dr. Neil Byrne’s brother, whom Harmony also murdered.

Michael: Hold on, are — are you saying that Harmony murdered a man to conceal that she killed his brother and then tried to kill my mom and Alexis to cover?

Dante: That’s what I’m saying.

Willow: I’m sorry. That — that can’t be right. My mother had her faults, but she was kind, compassionate. She was not a murderer.

Dante: Uh, Willow… Harmony committed a crime years ago, and she went to great lengths to hide it.

Willow: Having to do with her past?

Dante: Having to do with her past… and yours.

Terry: How did you know I have a date?

Britt: When I’m bored, I hack into your personal calendar, e-mails, and browser history.

Terry: Oh.

Britt: I also just overheard Elizabeth.

Terry: [ Scoffs ] Well, if you must know, I’m going home to change. So thanks for asking.

Britt: Mm. Not a fan of unsolicited advice?

Terry: Is anyone?

Britt: Well, then, you’re probably not gonna like what I’m about to say.

Terry: Go on.

Britt: Forget about Amy. Forget about the hospital. Forget about everything right now. Enjoy your date.

---

Dex: You guys are busted. Get out of here. Let’s go.

Amy: She has it in for me, I swear.

Chet: Well, I’m sure that is not the case.

Amy: Thanks for telling me my feelings and perceptions are invalid. You’re a great brother.

Chet: It’s not like you don’t have a history of blowing things out of proportion.

Amy: You’re adopted.

Chet: Actually, you were.

Amy: Oh, what? [ Laughs ] No, I wasn’t.

Chet: You and your boss are going through a rough patch. You should probably just talk it out.

Amy: You don’t know this woman, Chet. She is completely unreasonable.

Chet: Yeah, I can’t imagine what that’s like.

Amy: There is no point in talking it out. Instead, I’m simply going to avoid her whenever possible.

---

Terry: Wait, wait, wait a second. You, Britt Westbourne, she of the caustic remarks, who freely judges the choices of others, is actually telling me to go out and —

Britt: Just enjoy yourself.

Terry: [ Scoffs ] You know, you’re continually not as aggravating as I thought you’d be.

Britt: What a compliment.

Terry: [ Chuckles ]

Britt: Now get out of here.

[ Both laugh ]

TJ: You were right.

Britt: As usual. About what?

TJ: I took your advice. I called Molly, and she wants to curl up on the couch, watch “Star Wars,” and eat vegan pizza.

Britt: Sounds like the perfect way to recharge.

TJ: So I would like to take you up on your offer, if that’s okay.

Britt: Go. Leave. Be with your domestic partner.

TJ: Awesome. I just need to tie up a few things, and I’ll be on my way.

Britt: Okay. I will hold down the fort. Enjoy that vegan pizza. And, TJ, May the 4th be with you. Besides, it’s not like I have anyone waiting for me tonight. [ Sighs ]

---

Elizabeth: Chelsea, hi. My name is Elizabeth. Lucy Coe referred me to you. I would like to schedule a session. I need help explaining the unexplainable.

---

Brook Lynn: I know what I’ll do. I-I will start saying daily affirmations, like, “I am good enough, I am strong enough, and I will hit the game-winning home run on opening day of the summer softball league.

Chase: Oh, in your dreams. No, not even in your dreams.

Brook Lynn: The Deception team has something the PCPD team doesn’t.

Chase: Yeah, what’s that?

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ] A base stealer from Bensonhurst with a .350 batting average.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Violet: The tea set’s put away.

Chase: Oh. Guess what — I have an idea. If Leo’s free, the four of us could, uh, go to Kelly’s for dinner.

Brook Lynn: That’s a really great idea. Leo can practice his poem for Violet.

Chase: And then we can go back to rounding the bases.

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ]

Chase: In terms of softball and describing how softball works.

Brook Lynn: Alright.

Violet: As long as we can bring the lightsabers.

Brook Lynn: It’s a date.

Violet: It’s a date.

[ Laughter ]

---

Dex: Sorry, Mr. Corinthos. I gave those guys a talking-to. They won’t cause any more trouble.

Sonny: You know what? You know how to handle yourself.

Dex: Just doing my job. Well…you know.

Sonny: You know, I’ll tell you what. There might be something that, you know, I-I might have for you. Why don’t you come by my office later and we’ll talk about your future?

---

Willow: So this crime my mom committed all those years ago, it was referenced in the papers you found?

Carly: They were session notes from dr. Byrne, who was apparently Harmony’s psychiatrist. And in the notes, dr. Byrne wrote that Harmony revealed a secret to him.

Willow: And what was the secret?

Carly: Uh, Willow…

Dante: Carly, I’m going to stop you before you go any further. Willow, I’m obligated to tell you that, uh, we have yet to verify these and other details, but having said that, we have no reason to doubt the veracity of the comments Dr. Byrne made that, uh, Harmony confessed to doing.

Willow: Thank you, Dante. I understand. Now, can somebody please just tell me?

Dante: Harmony was not your biological mother.

Harmony: She was…one of two. My Willow, she had another half.

Carly: Had another half? Was Willow a twin?

Harmony: Nelle…

Carly: Nelle? Oh my God.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Sasha: What the hell are you doing here?

Brando: I’m hoping you know what to do.

Jordan (to Curtis): And how exactly did you manage to do that, when I said no?

Nina (to Scott): I need your full and complete attention.

Willow (to Carly): Did Harmony tell you anything?

Sonny (to Dex): If that’s a problem, we stop right now.

Robert: Oh.

Anna: Got it, ha-ha.

Robert: Ah.

Anna: Alright, let’s see what streaming on Hulu.

[ Television turns on, suspenseful music playing ]

Robert: But why bother when you know what you’ve got with a classic?

Anna: It’s called expanding your horizons.

Robert: It’s called wasting time.

Anna: Oh, gosh. You’re such a stick in the mud.

Robert: Yeah, and you love me for it. No, I don’t.

Anna: Uh, yeah, you do. I remember, it’s written somewhere.

[ Television beeping ]

Anna: [ Laughs ] Look at us. Can you?

Robert: Hmm.

Anna: We used to be facing down deadly assassins. Now we’re fighting over what to watch on tv.

Robert: There is a term for that.

Dull.

Robert: Nah, bliss.

Anna: Mm, yeah, you might be right.

Robert: Mm.

[ Doorbell rings ]

Anna: No.

Robert: That’s gotta be trouble at this hour.

Anna: Oh, I could do with some trouble.

Robert: Uh-huh. Turn the telly off.

[ Television turns off, music stops ]

Anna: [ Chuckles ] Come on. After you. Out of the way. Let’s see who this is. Oh.

Felicia: Is this a bad time?

---

Nina: Hey.

Phyllis: Hey. Is everything okay? Um… you sounded strange on the phone.

Nina: Well, it’s been an evening. Uh, Willow Tait’s mot– oh, what am I talking about? You know Harmony.

Phyllis: Formerly known as Lorraine?

Nina: Yeah. Well, she was rushed to the E.R. There was some kind of accident?

Phyllis: Oh, no. I hope she’s all right.

Nina: Yeah, so do I.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] We don’t need a reminder, but… life is so short. We have to grab every bit of joy from it that we can.

Nina: Yeah.

---

 

Frank: Everything okay, boss?

Sonny: Yeah. Yeah. Somebody reminded me tonight to carpe diem.

Frank: Seize the day. Good advice.

Sonny: Yeah. Good night, Frank.

Frank: Good night, sir.

---

 

Michael: I’ve been studying up on Paris, preparing for our trip. Yes, we’re going to go to the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower, but did you know that there is a museum solely dedicated to Monet?

Willow: Really?

Michael: Yeah. It’s on the outskirts of the city, and, uh, there is this huge, beautiful park right next to it. So we gotta go there. You know, it sounds like it rivals Central Park.

Willow: Then you know who would love it? Wiley.

Michael: Oh, yeah. Well, only if there’s dogs, because nothing is cool in Wiley’s world unless there’s dogs.

Willow: Right.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Sasha: Willow. Uh, we’d like to wait with you, but—but if you don’t want us here, then we can—

Willow: No, no, of course I want you here. Yeah.

Sasha: Okay.

Willow: My mom’s awake, so that’s something.

Sasha: She is? That means that there’s hope, right?

Michael: There’s always hope.

Carly: Harmony, you’re not making any sense. Do you know where you are? It’s Carly. You’re in the hospital. You were in an accident. Do you remember?

Harmony: [ Gasping ] Willow.

Carly: Willow’s here. Do you need me to get her?

[ Monitors beeping ]

Harmony: You need… you need to protect her. No matter the cost.

Carly: Okay, of course. Of course I’ll protect Willow. From what?

---

 

Anna: I’m going to open a bottle of wine, and then we can stream, like, the hottest new show on Hulu.

Robert: Or better still, we have a few shots of single malt scotch and enjoy Bogie and Bacall.

Felicia: Would it be okay if we skip movie night?

Anna: What’s happened?

Felicia: Well, it’s such a beautiful night. Why don’t we go, like, take a look at the stars?

Anna: Okay.

Robert: Okay. Start talking.

Felicia: Is that the big dipper or the little dipper? I never can tell.

Anna: Alright, Miss Stargazer. What’s going on?

---

 

Phyllis: Yoo-hoo.

Nina: Oh, thank you.

Phyllis: Let me guess — you saw Sonny today.

Nina: Is it that obvious?

Phyllis: To me.

Nina: I don’t know, Phyllis. For so long, it seemed impossible.

Phyllis: And now?

Nina: And now… maybe there’s a way forward for Sonny and me. We just have to be brave enough to take it.

[ Door opens ]

Valentin: Apologies. The sign in that window says “open.” Is this a private party?

Nina: I think there’s room for one more.

Phyllis: If it’s okay with you, it’s okay with me.

Nina: Valentin, have a seat.

Valentin: Phyllis Caulfield. How are you?

Phillis: Good. And you?

Valentin: Maintaining.

Phyllis: Tea?

Valentin: I’ll take something stronger — bourbon, neat.

Phyllis: Coming right up.

Valentin: We meet again.

Nina: So we do.

---

Sonny: Hey, Frank.

Frank: Yes, sir.

Sonny: I heated up, uh, some of these, uh, meatballs. Uh, you gotta try one.

Frank: [ Sighs ] I appreciate it, sir, but —

Sonny: No, just come on in.

Frank: I-I can’t leave my post, sir. I’m sorry.

Sonny: Okay. I understand, but can you just — just try one?

Frank: As you wish, sir.

Sonny: For your boss?

Frank: Definitely. Mmm. Hm. That’s delicious.

Sonny: [ Laughs ] Told you.

Frank: Mmm.

Sonny: Right?

Frank: You sure you’re okay, boss?

Sonny: Yeah. Yeah. Just, I’m, uh… hard — you know, can’t sleep. But I’ll be fine.

Frank: Thank you, sir.

Sonny: Alright.

[ Door Closes ]

Sonny: [ Sighs ] [ Grunts ] [ Grunts ] [ Exhales deeply ] [ Sighs ]

Lenny: About time you arrive.

---

 

Harmony: [ Strained ] I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have attacked you, but I didn’t… [ Strained gasp ]

Carly: Harmony, I’m fine.

Harmony: I almost killed you.

Carly: But you didn’t.

Harmony: You’re the only one — [ Gasps] You and Michael are the only ones… and I almost ruined it. I ruin everything.

Carly: No, you don’t. You didn’t ruin Willow. She’s a beautiful young girl.

Harmony: I was so selfish.

Carly: Calm down. You need to calm down.

Harmony: I just [Gasps] Wanted to repair what I’d broken with Willow, and I should have told the truth… when I had the chance.

---

 

Felicia: There will be a lunar eclipse at the end of the month.

Anna: Good to know.

Felicia: Some call it a blood moon. There are some cultures where it’s considered a bad omen for pregnant women.

Anna: Well, that counts us out.

[ Crickets chirping ]

Anna: Oh, my God. You’re not…?

Mac: We just enjoyed being around Bailey so much. You know, it’s all the fun and none of the responsibility.

Robert: Except to keep the child safe and unharmed while the mother’s gone.

Mac: You know what I’m saying.

Robert: Yeah, I know what you mean. Being a granddad is great. Play with the kid, hand it back, go to bed.

Mac: Unless you don’t.

Robert: Uh, I’m not following.

Mac: What if… instead of the granddad, you’re the actual dad? What if you do the parenthood thing all over again?

Felicia: No! I’m not pregnant.

Anna: Oh, because for a second there, I thought —

Felicia: I think Mac wants a baby.

Robert: Will you stop talking in riddles and just get to the point?

Mac: I think Felicia wants a baby.

Robert: [ Laughing ]

---

 

Nina: Nice tan.

Valentin: [ Chuckles ] Thanks.

Nina: Wherever you’ve been, it looks good on you, Valentin. So, are you fully recovered? Back to your old self?

Valentin: Hope not. I’d like to think I’ve done some growing.

Nina: I’d like to think that, too. About me. Not about you. Well, maybe a little about you, too. How’s Charlotte?

Valentin: She’s wonderful.

Nina: Yeah. She seems like she’s really enjoying boarding school.

Valentin: You’ve been in touch with her?

Nina: Yeah, I’ve talked to her. And I have to admit, I was a little surprised. I didn’t think you had it in you to part with your little girl.

Valentin: It wasn’t easy. After peter abducted Charlotte, I wanted her far away from Port Charles and Victor.

Nina: Yeah, but wasn’t Victor the one that dropped her off at school? I’m only saying that because Charlotte made it a point to say she wished it had been you.

Valentin: I was laid up recuperating. I figured, at the very least, I could trust Victor with the drop off.

Nina: Don’t forget about me. I’m always here. Especially when it comes to Charlotte.

Valentin: I like that. And I’ll keep that in mind.

---

 

Sonny: Lenny?

Lenny: That’s right.

Sonny: This is the firehouse where I used to dance with Nina.

Lenny: Sure is. And once again, your wardrobe is lacking. Good thing I came prepared. It’s yours. Might as well take it. Oh. Perfect fit.

Sonny: [ Chuckles ] This is not real. I-I-I can’t be here. Is this…?

Lenny: Oop, oop. Give me one good reason.

Sonny: First of all, you’re dead, Lenny.

Lenny: Look who’s talking. When you crawled out of that river, weren’t you a goner? A funeral thrown for you back home and everything?

Sonny: Yeah, that was different.

Lenny: All depends on how you look at it. And it looks to me like you could use a stiff one. What’s your poison these days, Mike?

Sonny: Club soda.

Lenny: Come again?

Sonny: Oh, things have changed since the last time I saw you.

Lenny: Good thing I’ve got nothing but time. Why don’t you start from the beginning, when you went back to Port Charles?

---

Willow: Thank you guys for being here. It means a lot.

Michael: We wouldn’t be anywhere else.

Sasha: We love you.

Brando: And if there’s anything that we can do, at all…

Willow: Trust me, you’re doing it.

Carly: I get it. I really do. I was raised by my adoptive mother, but it wasn’t kept a secret. Harmony, the longer you take to say it out loud, the harder it’s going to be to say it.

Harmony: If I had just been brave enough, it wouldn’t have gone this far.

Carly: You mean with Neil?

Harmony: No. If I had just told the truth… there would have been more time. Things would have been different, but now it’s gone too far. And Willow isn’t safe with her. And now Willow… can never know.

---

 

Anna: Look, Bailey is the most adorable little baby, and I can completely understand Mac wishing to have one exactly like her, but —

Felicia: maybe it’s more than just wishing.

Anna: You think he’s serious about having another child?

Felicia: I don’t know.

Anna: Or adopting one?

Felicia: I mean, we haven’t gotten that far yet, and I’m not even sure what he’s saying. I’m — I’m just — I’m getting this vibe.

Anna: What about your vibe?

Felicia: What?

Anna: Well, I mean, Mac may want to raise another child, but do you want to, really?

Robert: Okay. Now, have we got that all out of our system?

Mac: Thank you.

Robert: Good. Because it’s my turn. I got a story. This is about an old man who becomes a father. Except he thinks that the diaper that needs changing is his own.

Mac: Ha-ha.

Robert: Hey, seriously. I’ll never forget the fact that you raised my little girl at a time that I couldn’t.

Mac: Helping to raise Robin was one of the ultimate joys of my life, and I will always think of Maxie and Georgie as mine. But Felicia and I, we never — we never were able to bring up a kid together.

Robert: W-wait, wait. This isn’t just Felicia? You want this, too?

---

 

Sonny: I still can’t believe that Carly and I are divorced. I thought we would last, you know, until…

Lenny: “until death do us part”?

Sonny: [ Chuckles ]

Lenny: Mm. Take it from me — death is easy compared to divorce. Phyllis can still put flowers on my grave, think of me when they’re playing our song, remember the two of us at our best, and not our worst.

Sonny: I envy her that.

Lenny: You have kids? How are they taking it?

Sonny: Well, uh, they’re young. Donna and Avery, you know, they’re a bit confused, but they miss Carly. But Carly’s really good at seeing them as much as possible.

Lenny: They’ll be all right.

Sonny: My son, who’s having a big problem with it, he’s grown up, but it’s — it’s put a strain on our relationship.

Lenny: What’s his name?

Sonny: Michael.

Lenny: Michael. I like that name. Is he in the “family business”?

Sonny: He wanted to be at some point, but I — I shut it down. And now, forget about it. He don’t even… he don’t even want any part of me or my life.

Lenny: Don’t give up on him. That’s an order.

Sonny: No, I would never give up on my son. But… he’s given up on me.

Lenny: What, just because you’re not with his mother anymore?

Sonny: That’s part of it.

Lenny: And what’s the other part?

Sonny: Nina.

---

 

Nina: [ Laughs ] Really?

Valentin: She’s already made the equestrian team. You should ask her about it next time you talk to her.

Nina: Oh, I definitely will. And I am truly impressed. I mean, I’m sure that the competition was fierce. An elite European boarding school?

Valentin: An elite European boarding school where the students not only ride, but they have their own string of expensive horses.

Nina: Fancy. Exactly my point. And she rode one of the horses at the school and she still made the team! Your daughter is a very talented rider, a true competitor.

Valentin: No argument there.

Nina: Okay. Now out with it.

Valentin: Out with what?

Nina: How badly do you miss her?

Valentin: Desperately. I miss her desperately.

Nina: Oh. Is there, like, a parents’ weekend or something like that coming up?

Valentin: I don’t know. I hope so. I’ll have to check the, uh, school website.

Nina: And it must have been really hard for you after everything that happened with Bailey.

Valentin: Yeah, I loved her.

Nina: I know you did.

Valentin: But I’ve come to appreciate that Brook Lynn did what she had to do. It was the right thing to protect Maxie’s daughter from Peter.

Nina: But it’s painful. I can see it in your eyes. You know that I know what it’s like to lose a child. But it’s even more painful when it turns out that she was never yours.

---

 

Sasha: [ Sniffles ]

[ Pill case snaps shut ]

Sasha: Do you even realize… if you would have taken one of these and they found it in your system? No. You have been given a second chance. Don’t blow it.

Sasha: [ Inhales sharply ]

[ Toilet flushes ]

[ Knock on door ]

Brando: Sasha? You okay?

[ Knock on door ]

Sasha: Yeah. I’ll be right there.

Willow: God, I’m just so aware of it now.

Michael: Of what?

Willow: All the time I kept my mom at arm’s length. Not that she didn’t deserve to be, though it was always more about protecting myself than it was about punishing my mom.

Michael: No, Willow, you had every right to want to distance yourself.

Willow: But now it’s just staring me in the face. My mom could be dying, and I can, like, feel it on my heart, all the time I could have spent with her, all the things I could have said to her. I know I made the right decision for myself back then.

Michael But you still wish you could get that time back.

Willow: So much.

Carly: Who can never know? Willow can never know that she’s adopted?

Harmony: She loves too much, too hard. She’s obsessive and possessive. She’ll try to take her away from Michael. She — she’s dangerous.

Carly: Are you talking about Willow’s biological mother? Do you know who she is?

Harmony: She’s… she’s bad for Willow, and Willow knows it. She hates her.

Carly: Willow knows this person?

Harmony: She was… one of two. My Willow, she had another half.

Carly: Had another half? Was Willow a twin?

Harmony: Nelle…

Carly: Nelle? Oh, my god. Nina is Willow’s biological mother?

---

 

Harmony: [ Strained ] You need to protect her. Nina’s love will smother her. Please, Carly.

[ Monitors alarming ]

Harmony: Please.

Carly: We’ll take care of her, I promise you. Willow will be okay; I promise you that.

Harmony: [ Hyperventilating ]

[ Monitors alarming ]

TJ: Carly, move. Ms. Miller? No pulse.

Amy: Pads are ready.

TJ: Charge.

[ Paddles whine ]

Nurse: Charging loaded.

TJ: Clear.

[ Monitors continue alarming ]

TJ: One, two, three, four… five, six, seven, eight…

Amy: I’m going to get the ambu bag ready.

---

 

Valentin: You know I will always regret what I’ve done to you — using Sasha to manipulate your emotions to win your heart back.

Nina: Well, the irony is, you already had my heart.

Valentin: I know.

Nina: But now I can see that your intentions were good.

Valentin: You can?

Nina: Yeah. You just wanted to give me the… the one thing that I was missing in my life. It’s a beautiful sentiment.

Valentin: Poorly executed.

Nina: Oh, poorly executed.

Valentin: And, ironically, Nelle was in town the whole time.

Nina: It’s crazy, right? I-I still can’t believe that Nelle was my daughter and everything that played out after that — that I discovered that Carly kept the truth from me, and that she had a hand in Nelle’s death. It set a chain of events in motion that continues to this day.

Valentin: Sonny Corinthos… is he a link in that chain?

---

 

Lenny: Hallelujah! You finally got up the gumption to tell Nina how you feel about her.

Sonny: Well, let me tell you something. I don’t know what we are. We’re — Nina and I are just kind of like a slow dance for now.

Lenny: Oh, you and your slow dances. They’re nice and all, but what do they get you?

Sonny: Take it easy, there, Lenny.

Lenny: Or what? I’ll bust a blood vessel? Uh, been there, done that.

Sonny: [ Laughs ]

Lenny: Yeah? You listen up. If you keep waiting for the right moment, next thing you know, you’ll be turning up daisies like yours truly.

Sonny: You know, I always appreciated you and Phyllis’ love. I mean, it was real, honest. Not always perfect, but it was tough…

Lenny: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: …Like you can go through anything in life. What’s — what’s the secret?

Lenny: No secret. You just try to give more than you get, that’s all. And if you both do that, you can’t lose.

Sonny: Well, you know who gave me a gift? Nina.

Lenny: Yeah?

Sonny: Yeah. It’s a long story, but she’s not making me take sides against my son.

Lenny: That’s some gift.

Sonny: So what are you giving her in return?

---

 

[ Paddles whine ]

TJ: Clear!

[ Monitors alarming ]

TJ: One, two, three. Another dose of epi. Six, seven, eight. Run the IV wide. 11, 12, 13, 14. Come on, Harmony. 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21. Don’t quit on us! 22, 23, 24, 25… 26, 27, 28, 29, 30.

Amy: Administering PPV. One, two…

[ Flatline ]

Amy: She’s in asystole.

TJ: [ Panting, sniffles ] Time of death, 10:53 P.M. [ Exhales sharply ] [ Exhales deeply ]

[ Telephones ringing in distance ]

Brando: Hi. This hospital holds painful memories. But if there’s good news tonight…

Sasha: I know. It’s a beginning.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Michael: Mom?

Carly: You need to get back to the ICU.

---

 

Felicia: I’m not sure how I feel about raising a child at this stage of my life. I mean, let’s face it, I’m a grandmother of three.

Anna: Oh, yes. But don’t let that be the thing to stop you. You’re very young at heart, and in all the ways that count.

Felicia: Well, thank you for saying that.

Anna: I mean it. [ Sighs ] Gosh. If this really is something that you and Mac both want…

Felicia: Well, that’s just it. I’m not sure. I don’t know.

Anna: Uh, don’t you think this is a conversation you should be having with your husband?

Felicia: Ya think?

Anna: Yeah.

Felicia: [ Sighs ] Mac and I have shared so many adventures. Raising a child together isn’t one of them.

Anna: Whatever you decide, I’ll always be in your corner.

Felicia: Thank you. Well, maybe it’s all in my head. A kid? That’s probably the last thing Mac wants. [ Laughs ]

Mac: Maybe I’ve got it all wrong. Maybe the last thing Felicia wants is a baby.

Robert: Well, there’s one way to find out. Let’s go and ask her. Come on.

Mac: What?! No, don’t. You better not, I swear. If you say anything —

Robert: What are you gonna do? [ Laughs ]

[ Door opens ]

Robert: Ladies. What’s it like out there?

Anna: It’s breathtaking. How’s the whiskey?

Robert: Mmm. Breathtaking.

---

 

Sonny: You’re absolutely right, Lenny.

Lenny: Tell me something I don’t know.

Sonny: Well, look, Nina is putting me ahead of her own interests. I should do something for her.

Lenny: Then what are you waiting for, huh? Get out of here.

Sonny: Alright.

Lenny: [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: But how do I get out of here? What, am I gonna catch the next plane? I mean, how do I get home? Lenny? Where’d you go? Lenny! Come back, Lenny! Come back!

Frank: Boss, what’s the problem?

Sonny: Uh… [ Sighs ] Man. [ Scoffs ]

---

 

Nina: What Sonny and I had, that was in Nixon Falls. Now that we’re back in Port Charles, he has a life, he has a family, he has responsibilities, and so do I.

Valentin: Sounds very sensible and thought out, and I don’t believe a word of it.

Nina: Excuse me?

Valentin: The tone of your voice changes when you mention his name.

Nina: D-don’t tell me that you’re jealous. [ Chuckles ]

Valentin: When you say his name, there is a notable change in the tone of your voice, and that tells me that you’re more than just two people living separate lives.

Nina: And I’m sure you’re going to tell me your opinion on all this.

Valentin: [ Sighs ] Whatever happens — maybe you get everything you want, maybe it comes crashing down — I want you to know… you can count on me.

Nina: I’ll keep that in mind.

---

Sasha: I really thought that Willow’s mom was going to be okay, that she was going to make it.

Brando: Hey, we don’t know anything yet, okay? M-maybe she’s gone into surgery, she’s taken a turn for the worse and —

Sasha: Or I could have killed her.

Brando: Hey, it was an accident. Listen to me. Willow knows that. Everyone knows that.

Sasha: Why is this happening?

Willow: Oh, my god. She’s gone, isn’t she?

TJ: We did everything we could. Willow, w-we did everything we could. I’m so sorry.

Felicia: Oh, no, thank you. We should probably call it a night.

Mac: Busy day tomorrow.

Robert: Yeah. You should get the rest while you can.

Felicia: What’s that supposed to mean?

Robert: Chief of detectives. On call 24/7, right?

Felicia: Look, okay, well, good night.

Robert: Good night.

Felicia: Forget everything I said. Probably my imagination.

Anna: Okay.

Mac: Dinner soon?

Anna: Yes, absolutely. Yes. Yeah.

Robert: Drive safe.

Anna: Bye. Bye.

[ Door opens ]

[ Door closes ]

[ Crickets chirping ]

Mac: [ Sighs ] Hey, is that the big dipper or the little dipper?

Felicia: Huh. That’s the same thing I asked Anna. Do you think it would be okay to make a wish, even if it’s the wrong constellation?

Mac: I don’t see why not.

Felicia: [ Sighs ]

Mac: Felicia…

Felicia: Shh! Don’t say anything, otherwise it won’t come true.

Robert: To Mac and Felicia.

Anna: May they get everything they wish for.

Robert: Hmm. May the person who gets the remote get everything they want.

Anna: Ooh!

Sonny: I just drifted off for a second. Everything’s fine.

Frank: Bad dream?

Sonny: Actually, uh, it was a good dream. Good night, frank.

Frank: Good night, sir.

Sonny: [ Sighs ]

[ Telephone line ringing ]

[ Voicemail beeps ]

Nina: Hi, this is Nina. I can’t take your call right now, but please leave a message, and I’ll call you right back.

[ Voicemail beeps ]

Sonny: Hi, Nina. It’s Sonny. I-I just wanted to say that, uh, I was so happy to see you tonight, and, uh, I can’t wait to see you very, very soon.

---

 

Valentin: Thank you for your hospitality.

Phyllis: Anytime.

Valentin: Walk you to your car?

Nina: Wow, that’s very chivalrous of you this evening.

Valentin: I’m always chivalrous.

[ Women laughing ]

Nina: Hey, thank you for the tea.

Phyllis: Uh-huh.

Nina: And I will talk to you tomorrow.

Phyllis: Sounds good.

Nina: Okay.

Valentin: After you.

Nina: Wow. Again, being chivalrous.

Valentin: It’s kind of an affliction.

[ Light switch clicks ]

Phyllis: [ Gasps ]

Willow: [ Crying ] The — could I just, um… could I have a minute alone with her?

TJ: Yeah, you take — you take as much time as you need, okay?

Willow: [ Sniffles ] [ Crying ]

Michael: I can… I can wait out here.

Willow: Come with me?

Michael: Anywhere.

Sasha: Oh, God.

TJ: It’s — it’s a good thing you’re here. Willow’s gonna need her friends now more than ever.

Willow: I need you to know that I forgive you and I love you… so much more than you probably ever realized. Do you remember our picnic in that meadow in Colorado? When you braided my hair, you put all those wildflowers in it. [ Sniffles ] I don’t know if I’ve ever felt so beautiful or free. There were good memories, too, okay? Filled with magic, laughter… love. Those are the ones I’ll tell Wiley about. You hold on tight to them, Mom. I will, too. [ Crying ]

Harmony: You have to protect her. Nina’s love will smother her. Please, Carly. Please.

Carly: It’s okay. We got her. Willow is going to be okay.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Violet (to Chase): You can never have too many tea parties.

Brook Lynn (on phone): It’s so good to hear your voice.

TJ (to Britt): It was worse than I could ever imagine.

Terry (to Elizabeth): I do have something to confess. You’re not gonna like it.

Sonny (to Dante): What are you saying? I’m vulnerable or my business is vulnerable?

Michael (to Carly): I don’t know how to predict Willow from the fallout.

Willow: What was my mother trying to hide?

[ Door beeps ]

Martin: Hello, gorgeous. I’m back.

Lucy: [ Sniffs ]

Martin: Little hot for all that fur, isn’t it?

Lucy: Mm-hmm. Sure is. And it’s about to get a whole lot hotter.

---

Valentin: I know the deal, and I will do what has to be done, no matter what it costs me.

---

Sonny: I’m sorry. Is this seat taken?

Nina: It is now.

Sonny: [ Sighs ]

Nina: [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: How you doing?

Nina: I’m doing alright. How are you doing?

Sonny: Girls’ night out? No?

Nina: No. Britt, she had a hard day, so…

Sonny: Oh, that’s going around.

Nina: Yeah, and Aunt Liesl, she actually just got a better offer, and I wasn’t ready to go home yet.

Sonny: I’m glad you stayed.

Nina: Yeah, me, too. But, actually, I’m surprised that you did.

Sonny: What do you mean?

Nina: Sonny, you haven’t spoken to Michael tonight?

Sonny: No. Why?

Nina: Then you don’t know.

Sonny: Know what?

---

Carly: Has there been an update?

Willow: My mom woke up, so I take it as a good sign.

Carly: Yeah, yeah, that’s positive, yeah.

Michael: Yeah, we’re — we’re hopeful.

Willow: Dr. Ashford’s in with her now, taking her off the respirator, so she must be getting stronger. Maybe I won’t lose my mother after all. How is she?

---

Maxie: I want to see you tomorrow.

Austin: Good.

Maxie: But Georgie and James, they have activities, and I need to bake or throw myself at the mercy of Eckert’s for four dozen cupcakes, which will most likely clean them out.

Austin: Maxie, it’s okay. If you don’t want to hang out tomorrow night, that’s — just say so.

Maxie: I do want to hang out tomorrow night. I do not want to ask my parents to babysit two nights in a row. And I don’t want to have you over and run the risk of my kids having a meltdown on you.

Austin: Okay, you don’t need to convince me of anything, really, but it does sound like you’re trying to convince yourself a little bit.

Maxie: Of what?

Austin: Well, that, you’re busy, that you’re too busy. But it’s okay. Maybe just, you know, two nights in a row is too much too soon.

---

[ Phone clatters ]

Elizabeth: What was that?

Finn: It’s okay. It’s okay.

Elizabeth: Oh. [ Chuckles ]

Finn: You just knocked something over. You knocked over your phone.

Elizabeth: I’m sorry. I got a little carried away. [ Chuckles ]

Finn: It’s alright. I like when you get carried away. I’m all for it.

Elizabeth: Being here with you, not thinking about the house or being scared, it feels really nice.

Finn: I’m glad you feel safe here.

Elizabeth: ‘Cause I’m with you.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Elizabeth: Oh. I’m sorry.

[ Both chuckle ]

Elizabeth: It’s Cameron. Just be a second. Hold on. Hi. Yeah, I’m okay. Finn’s here, so you don’t have to worry about me.

---

Maxie: Maybe you’re right. Going out two nights in a row doesn’t seem like that big of a deal. Or at least it wasn’t before I had kids. I’m not going to say, “I’m a different person now,” but I am still me. I’m just me with a lot less free time.

Austin: I get it.

Maxie: Really?

Austin: [ Chuckles ] No, not — not — not really, but… okay, what I’m about to say — I am in no way equating medical school with being a parent. Okay. But, you know, medical school’s really time-consuming, and everybody tells you that, you know, and you think you understand that, but you don’t at all until you’re in the middle of it, and then you realize that it’s been weeks since you had a minute to yourself so you could lay down in the grass and look at the sky. Time-wasting becomes a memory and spontaneity a thing of the past.

Maxie: Very perceptive.

Austin: Thanks. I’m super smart.

Maxie: [ Chuckles ] And very true. I used to be a spontaneous person. Probably too impulsive. It got me into trouble a few times.

Austin: I’ll bet. You miss that?

Maxie: Certain aspects of it. But I wouldn’t trade the life I have now for that in a million years. And something like going out one night and having a really good time just so I could do it again the next night? That doesn’t seem practical.

Austin: Mm-hmm.

Maxie: And that defines the difference. Now, when I think about going out, I have to figure out if it’s practical or not.

Austin: Right. Maxie, if this were just about time management, that would not be a problem. That’s okay. But it does seem to me like you’re just looking for an excuse to push me away.

---

Lucy: I will forgive you your long, long absences if you promise to greet me like this every time you return.

Martin: Well, I would’ve been back a lot sooner, if at all possible.

Lucy: [ Chuckles ] So, how’s your mom?

Martin: Mother’s fine. Could we not discuss her while we’re naked?

Lucy: [ Chuckles ] Point taken.

Lucy: Did I tell you how much I really, really, really missed you?

Martin: Oh, I think you just did, and the feeling’s mutual. But I am sorry that I missed your big deception IPO launch.

Lucy: Oh, me, too, because it was an amazing experience. It would’ve been a lot better if you had been there. You know, I just was not sure how lucrative the IPO was going to be.

Martin: Oh, yes, you were.

Lucy: Yes, I was.

[ Both laugh ]

Lucy: And it was so glorious to be proven right. And you know what the other best part is?

Martin: Mm?

Lucy: Well, besides oodles and oodles of nice cash.

Martin: There is that.

Lucy: We can stop hiding our relationship.

Martin: I don’t think Valentin would be any more open to the idea of me being seen with his wildly successful business partner.

Lucy: Who cares? Fire him as a client. You don’t need him. I am very rich.

Martin: Why, Lucy Coe, are you suggesting that I become a kept man?

Lucy: [ Chuckles ] Okay, look at it this way. I am going to be hobnobbing with the rich and the powerful, and I’m going to be able to just throw clients, all types of other clients, right your way.

Martin: That is a gracious and generous offer, but I like to be in control of my own financial destiny, not to mention my personal life.

Lucy: Okay, let’s just hold on for a minute. So if this isn’t about the money, then why the hesitation? Do you — do you have a problem with us going public with our relationship?

---

Nina: I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you know Harmony, Willow’s mother. Well, Sonny, she got into a terrible accident. She’s in the ICU right now. She — she may not make it. Willow and Michael, they’re, I’m sure, at G.H., And I’m certain I wouldn’t be welcome, but I think maybe you should be there.

Sonny: No. I don’t think I’m welcome, either.

---

TJ: Your mother is breathing on her own. She’s — she’s getting supplemental oxygen, and she’s in and out of consciousness, which is to be expected. Your mom is still in critical condition. We had to cut her surgery short because she’s hypotensive. So hopefully she improves through the night, and we can go back in tomorrow and complete the surgery.

Willow: Can I see her?

Michael: It might help Harmony to hear Willow’s voice again.

TJ: That’s true. I never doubt the power of a mother’s love, so you can go in alone. And, Willow, it’s vital that your mom remains calm because any stress could cause a setback that — that she might not recover from.

---

Maxie: I am not pushing you away. That being said, I did just spend the last year of my life in abject fear of Peter. So, yes, I might be extra cautious about getting close to somebody new. I also might be misreading red flags and green flags and checkered flags. I’m really out of practice.

Austin: That’s a lot of flags.

Maxie: [ Chuckles ]

Austin: Maxie, the last thing I want to do is replace Peter in your life as a source of dread.

Maxie: No, you’re nothing like Peter, and I definitely don’t dread spending time with you.

Austin: Thank you for saying both of those things. But maybe you’re just starting to realize that it’s too soon to start something new.

---

Lucy: Wearing disguises and slinking around in hotel rooms has been very, very titillating. I’ve loved it. But I think it’s time to ditch the wigs and put our relationship on blast. Unless, of course, you really don’t want to be seen with me.

Martin: No, no. Lucy, that’s not it at all. Having you on my arm would definitely be a source of pride. But that pride would dissipate if I felt I was beholden ’cause you were paying my way. I mean, call me a neanderthal, but that’s just the way I feel.

Lucy: You, sir, are not a neanderthal. You are a gentleman, and it’s very, very charming. It’s just, it would be so nice to eat out sometimes instead of always ordering room service.

Martin: You know, you’re right. I mean, I’m never going to take your money, but I think I am done kowtowing to Valentin.

Lucy: Do you… you really mean that?

Martin: Hell yeah. If he doesn’t like the idea of the two of us together, well, that’s just too bad.

Lucy: [ Chuckles ]

Martin: ‘Cause I can always find another client. I just don’t think I could find another you.

---

Sonny: Michael and I had a fight, and things were said that can’t be forgotten.

Nina: Or forgiven?

Sonny: It’s over. We’re done. You can’t really get over this, you know, right?

Nina: Sonny, I don’t believe that. I know how much you love Michael. Sonny, there has to be some hope for reconciliation.

Sonny: My son disrespected me, and that’s something I can’t easily forgive.

Nina: Those are tough words.

Sonny: Yeah.

Nina: But I know how painful this is for you.

Sonny: Okay, so you know me.

Nina: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: It’s strange to me that Michael and Willow are going through a big life, you know, event. They don’t know if Harmony’s going to live or die, and nobody can pick up the phone to just give me a call. It’s not — you know, I know it’s not my… it’s not my place, so… speaking of place, this place looks like it’s going to be cleared pretty soon, right?

Nina: Mm.

Sonny: And then it’s just going to be [Chuckles] The two of us.

---

Willow: Dr. Ashford says you’re doing great. Keep it up, okay? Don’t push yourself. Rest. I’ll be right here whenever you wake up.

[ Monitor beeping ]

Willow: I don’t understand what happened tonight, but I want you to know, whatever it was, we’ll get through it together. I love you, Mom.

Michael: Thanks again for letting Willow go in there.

TJ: I know what it’s like waiting for your mom. You know, all that detached medical training, it just goes out the window.

Carly: You were great with Willow.

TJ: Thanks. I’ll be back.

Carly: [ Sighs ]

[ Beeping continues ]

Willow: Mom. Hi. Hi. It’s okay. I’m here. You’re going to be okay.

Harmony: What…?

Willow: Um, there was an accident. You were hit by a car, but you’re at G.H. Right now, and they are taking really good care of you.

[ Beeping quickens ]

Willow: Mom, are you in pain? I’ll get the nurse.

Harmony: [ Weakly ] No, Willow. [ Sighs ] I’m so sorry.

[ Beeping continues ]

---

Finn: Okay, sweetheart, I love you. Yeah, I love Uncle Chase, too. Sure, you can tell him. Alright. Good night. I’ll see you in the morning.

Elizabeth: Okay, then let’s just talk in the morning, alright? I love you. Bye. Hm.

Finn: Cam okay? Still staying in his friend’s dorm room?

Elizabeth: Oh, yeah, he’s fine. Chase and Violet having a good time?

Finn: They’re camped out in the living room as we speak.

Elizabeth: Do you remember when we went camping?

Finn: We should do it again. I like camping with you.

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ]

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Elizabeth: Oh, I’m so sorry.

[ Both chuckle ]

Elizabeth: I’m sure it’s another kid. Yeah, it’s Aiden. Oh. He’s still asking about franco’s ghost. I should call him.

Finn: Yeah. Yeah, you should. I understand. Um, I’m going to go, but, um… I’m right next door. Just bang on the wall if you need me.

Elizabeth: [ Bangs on wall ] [ Chuckles ]

Finn: [ Sighs ]

Elizabeth: Oh, you know what? You, um, take this extra key in case, you know, I bang on the wall in the middle of the night.

Finn: Okay. Hey. Do me a favor. Latch this door anyway, okay?

Elizabeth: Okay.

Finn: You are so beautiful.

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ]

Finn: Good night.

Elizabeth: Good night.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Elizabeth: Hey, I was just going to call you, but you beat me to it. Yeah, I’m okay. How about you? What have you guys been up to?

---

Lucy: Are you sure tonight is the night for us to go public?

Martin: It’s overdue. You and I have been hiding out too long.

Lucy: [ Exhales sharply, chuckles ]

Valentin: Martin. You’re back. Looking cozy with my business associate. Hello, Lucy Coe. How are you?

Lucy: Cozy. We’re dating.

Valentin: You don’t say.

---

Maxie: Well, you make a valid point. Between transitioning Bailey into my family, juggling the schedule of three kids with my work schedule, and the IPO, and getting out of the havoc Peter wreaked in my life, I mean, a new relationship is the last thing I should be thinking about.

Austin: Okay. Mm. There you have it. Look, Maxie, I’m not… I don’t want to rush you into anything. I don’t want you to do anything you don’t want to do. And we started as friends. We can just go back to being friends.

Maxie: To hell with that.

---

Nina: Thank you. Are you still drinking club soda?

Sonny: I told you, I’m cutting back on my drinking.

Nina: That’s so great. And how do you feel?

Sonny: I feel great. Workout’s incredible, and my energy is…

Nina: [ Chuckling ] Oh, boy, watch out. Well, I’m glad you’re taking care of yourself, because… I want you around for a very long time.

Sonny: Are you going to make my sticking around worth it?

Nina: I’ll do my best.

Sonny: Hmm. Here’s your chance.

Nina: Uh-oh.

Sonny: Uh-huh.

Nina: [ Chuckles ]

🎵 Darkness calling / to the shadows of your love / nowhere to run 🎵

Sonny: Dance with me.

🎵 Take me / I’m falling 🎵

---

Michael: That’s not dinner.

TJ: Well, it’s portable, and theoretically more nutritious than potato chips, so… How’s Willow holding up?

Michael: She’s still in there with Harmony. My mom’s in the waiting room in case she comes out.

TJ: Good.

Michael: Willow knows about Alexis and my mom, by the way.

TJ: That’s got to make this even harder for her. I understand having a difficult relative that you’re not sure about letting into your life completely. You and Willow both have my sympathy.

Michael: How do you do that? How do you — how do you genuinely care about someone who tried to kill Molly’s mom?

TJ: First of all, I took an oath about doing no harm, but beyond that, it comes down to humanity. People who do bad things, people who we don’t like, are still people. So it’s not my job to judge, Michael. It’s my job to heal. And if I ever cross that line, it’s time to put down my stethoscope.

Michael: You’re a better man than I am.

TJ: Uh, don’t give me too much credit. I feel things. Oh, I feel things. But I have to do my part. As for Harmony, so far, she’s proven to be a fighter. So if she gets through this, I’ll have done my part, and she’ll have to ultimately face the consequences of her actions.

Michael: Yeah, but, I mean, would that — would that really be for the best, right? I’m thinking of Willow.

TJ: I hear you, I hear you. But isn’t it better if Willow has the chance to talk to Harmony about what happened rather than Harmony dying with all her questions left unanswered?

Willow: Mom, Mom. Y-you have to stay calm, okay? Do you need me to get a doctor?

Harmony: No.

[ Monitor beeping rapidly ]

Harmony: Willow… I love you.

Willow: I love you, too, Mom.

Harmony: I loved being your mom.

Willow: I’m glad we’ve reconnected, but we have — we have more memories to make.

Harmony: Wiley?

Willow: Yes, yes. Wiley he loves his grandma, and that’s why you have to get better. So you can make a bunch of memories with Wiley.

Harmony: Won’t.

Willow: “Won’t” what, Mom? Look at me. Listen. You will see Wiley again. All you have to do is rest. We’ll — we’ll figure everything out. We’ll find a way to make it better.

Harmony: HI have to… [ Breathes shakily ] Have to — have to tell… [ Beeping continues ]

---

Elizabeth: [ Sighs ] Oh, no. Finn. Finn!

[ Door beeps ]

Elizabeth: Finn.

Finn: Oh. Hey, hey. Are you alright? What happened? I don’t know. I was in the shower. I didn’t even hear anything. What’s going on? Why is this happening?

---

Carly: “Harmony suffers from intense guilt about the child”?

Harmony: Those are private. Give them to me.

Carly: “Harmony rationalizes keeping the child.”

Harmony: This is all lies. Neil Byrne was a drug addict. Give it to me.

Carly: No. This is what you meant about Willow not being yours. That’s what you’re doing here, right? You’re burning papers that prove that Willow isn’t your biological daughter.

Harmony: [ Grunts ]

Carly: Oh!

Michael: Mom.

Carly: Hey. [ Sighs ] Those for me?

Michael: Yeah.

Carly: Thank you.

Michael: So what’s got you so distracted?

Carly: I was just remembering when Harmony attacked me.

Michael: Yeah, I was just talking to TJ about that. He’s got this Hippocratic oath to help clarify things, but I don’t think I can ever forgive Harmony now. Thank God you’re okay.

Carly: I am. Sore. But I’m okay.

[ Both sigh ]

Michael: I know — I know that Harmony’s Willow’s mom, but I can’t help but think that she’s better off without her.

Carly: This is going to be really difficult for Willow.

Michael: Even if Harmony survives, she’s going to be facing criminal charges. Yeah, it’s hard when a parent betrays your love.

Carly: Does Sonny know about this? Did you tell him what’s going on?

Michael: Nah, I don’t intend to.

Carly: Michael, hey. No matter what happened between Sonny and me, I want you to have a relationship with your father. It’s important.

Michael: As you know, he put Nina first — ahead of you, ahead of his whole family. So I don’t want his support. I wouldn’t take it even if it was offered. I don’t want anything from him.

---

Martin: Valentin, I am proud to confirm that miss Lucy and i are indeed keeping company. However, I can assure you that my clients are never subject to pillow talk, and you can rely on the same discreet service that you’ve always receive from me.

Valentin: Yeah? And what if I still feel uncomfortable with my lawyer and my close business associate becoming involved?

Martin: Then I’ll be very sorry to see you go, but I cannot allow anyone to dictate my personal life.

---

Austin: You good?

Maxie: Yeah. You make me happy.

Austin: Well, Maxie, you make me really happy. But I don’t want to be the kind of guy that you feel like you ought to make excuses, you know, and hang out —

Maxie: Whoa, wait. Hold on. No. Are you done talking? Because I think we were in the middle of something.

Austin: Yeah. We were. Maybe we should finish what we started.

Georgie: What is he doing here? Mommy?

---

Harmony: Must…tell…you —

Willow: Mom, Mom, you have to stay calm, okay? Mom, Mom.

[ Monitor beeping rapidly ]

Harmony: Willow, no —

Willow: Please, please, mom, I have to get —

Harmony: Willow, listen.

Willow: Mom, mom.

[ Beeping continues ]

Willow: Mom.

TJ: Oh, my God. This is Dr. Ashford. Page Dr. Carter for me, stat. You need to go. Now.

Willow: Mom, it’s okay. It’s okay. You’re going to be okay. You just need to sleep, heal. Wiley and I will be here waiting for you, okay?

TJ: You feeling anxious?

Willow: She was trying to tell me something, and her telemetry spiked. Carly, whatever it is, just tell me, please.

---

Carly: What did Harmony say?

Willow: She said that she loves me and she’s sorry. She wanted to say more, but she was getting upset. Maybe she remembered what she’d done to you and Alexis? In the chapel, you told me what happened but not why. That’s what I can’t understand.

Carly: Okay, Willow, there will be plenty of time to talk about this. I promise you that. But right now, you need to focus on your mother.

TJ: So I just spoke with the attending physician, Dr. Carter, and he agreed that your mom only needs a sedative. So I’ve administered it, and she’s resting now.

Willow: Did I cause that because she was trying to talk to me?

TJ: No, no, your mom’s condition remains critical, and, right now, it’s most important she rest.

Michael: Let’s go for a walk, okay? Get some fresh air.

Willow: No, I’ll be okay.

Carly: Hey, a walk and some air can do wonders, so go with Michael, and I will let you know if your mom wakes up. I promise.

Willow: Okay, then.

Michael: Okay. Come on.

Carly: [ Sighs ] God. Willow thinks Harmony remembers what happened on Rana Point. Maybe that’s why she’s so upset.

TJ: Well, if that’s the case, that is another good sign cognitively. Right now, the most urgent concern is how much damage her body sustained when the car hit her.

[ Pager beeps ]

Carly: [ Sighs ]

TJ: Excuse me. I have to consult with Dr. Carter.

[ Monitor beeping steadily ]

---

Valentin: You make a handsome couple. I wish you both the best.

Martin: Then you’re still on my client roster?

Valentin: I hope so. Near the top. I’m happy for you both.

Lucy: [ Giggles ] Uh, thank you, partner. I promise you it will be smooth sailing from here on out.

Valentin: I will continue to be happy if I can count on your support at ELQ.

Lucy: Well, under your leadership, ELQ has certainly prospered, so I don’t have any plans of withdrawing my support at all.

Valentin: Well, then sail away. Excellent news all around. Enjoy the evening.

Lucy: [ Giggles ]

Martin: You, lovely lady, are one shrewd customer.

Lucy: Shut up. Kiss me.

---

Maxie: Georgie, what are you doing out of bed?

Georgie: I can’t sleep. I’m hungry.

Austin: I should go.

Maxie: Oh.

Georgie: Yes.

Maxie: Wait. Uh, Georgie, please be nice to my friend, Austin.

Austin: No, it’s — it’s — it’s — it’s no big deal. I totally understand. And Georgie didn’t expect to see me here when she woke up.

Maxie: Right. I do need to get this girl back to bed.

Georgie: No.

Austin: I definitely need to go.

---

Elizabeth: I got out of the shower and found everything just like this.

Rory: And you heard nothing?

Elizabeth: No, nothing. And the room was empty.

Finn: I didn’t see anyone in the corridor when I ran over. I was right next door.

Rory: Was the door open or closed?

Elizabeth: I-I don’t — I don’t know. I don’t remember.

Finn: It was closed and locked. I had to use my key.

Rory: And, uh, what about the security latch?

Elizabeth: Oh, God. Aiden called me. I got distracted. I don’t think I latched it.

Finn: Someone with a key card could have entered.

---

Willow: Well, I definitely took a breath of fresh air, and you’re right, it helped, but I don’t want to be too far from the ICU.

Michael: Hey, I understand. [ Sighs ] Can I, um… can I get you anything? Water? Anything from the cafeteria?

Willow: Just stay with me.

Michael: I’m not going anywhere.

Willow: I keep wondering what my mom was trying to tell me. Why did she attack Carly and Alexis? It doesn’t make any sense. I keep turning over all kinds of scenarios.

Michael: Hey, hey, hey, hey. Don’t — don’t do that, okay? You’re going to drive yourself crazy. Look, we can’t know what we don’t know until we do.

Willow: Michael, did Carly say anything more to you about what happened tonight?

[ Monitor beeping ]

Harmony: You tell?

Carly: Willow knows that you tried to kill me and Alexis, but she doesn’t know why. She doesn’t know that you’re not her birth mother. I didn’t hold back for you. I held back for Willow’s sake because she’s got a hell of a lot going on right now. But she deserves to know the truth.

---

🎵 Falling / till I’m drowning in your love / nowhere to come up / take me / down to / the bottom of your love / and I surrender it is nice to be in 🎵

Elizabeth: It is nice to be in a room with other people. Oh, there’s Lucy.

Lucy: Oh. Hey, you two. How’s… well, what is it? What’s going on? Elizabeth, are you okay?

Elizabeth: You know that I’m staying here for a bit, and…um….

Finn: Someone broke into her room.

Lucy: What? Here at the metro court? That is so horrible. With everything that’s going on, I’m so sorry.

Finn: The police are investigating.

Lucy: Okay, good. Uh, hey, why don’t you two, uh, come and join me and Martin?

Finn: Oh.

Elizabeth: Oh, no, that’s okay. We’re — we’re just getting some tea.

Lucy: Some tea? You need whiskey in that tea. Come on. Join us, please.

Elizabeth: You know, I-I left my phone in the room. The boys might call me.

Finn: I’ll go get it.

Elizabeth: Thank you.

Finn: Okay.

---

Maxie: I’m sorry we got interrupted just when things were getting interesting.

Austin: Yeah. We have plenty of time.

Maxie: I like the sound of that.

Georgie: Mommy, I need more apples.

Austin: Good night, Maxie.

Maxie: Good night.

---

Finn: Hey. Anything?

Rory: I reviewed the security footage at the time of the incident. Unfortunately, this room is out of the camera’s range, but I did confirm that nobody entered or exited the elevator on this floor or used the stairs.

Finn: Okay, that’s, uh — that’s Elizabeth’s phone. Can I take this to her?

Rory: Sure.

Finn: Okay. What about the vacant rooms, alright? You’ll check those, too, right? I mean, the intruder could be hiding in one of them.

Rory: They’re currently being checked.

Finn: There’s got to be something else, alright? I mean, this person doesn’t just vanish into thin air. How does someone break into Elizabeth’s room and leave no evidence?

---

Lucy: Forget the tea, okay? Get a hot toddy instead. For Elizabeth. I don’t need one.

Martin: Agreed. ‘Cause you, woman, are hot enough as it is.

Lucy: [ Chuckles ] Go. [ Chuckles ] [ Sighs ]

Elizabeth: So this is new.

Lucy: [ Chuckles ] Yeah. Yeah, it is. He — he’s so cute, right? Cute. Oh, sorry. Uh, back to you. What can you do? What are you going to do?

Elizabeth: I don’t know. I thought I would be safe here, but it seems that whatever is going on is following me.

Lucy: Okay, well, I’m sure the police can figure this out and figure out who’s doing this.

Elizabeth: I think the police may be out of their depth on this one. I might need a different kind of expert.

Lucy: Okay.

Elizabeth: I would like the name of that medium you mentioned.

---

[ Applause ]

N’neka: Nice moves. Maybe Curtis should think about a floor show.

Nina: Yeah. That’s funny. Um… I should go home.

Sonny: Need a ride?

Nina: No, I called earlier. The car’s actually waiting for me.

Sonny: Thanks for the dance.

Nina: No, thank you for the dance. Good night, Sonny.

Sonny: Good night, Nina.

Nina: [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: [ Chuckles ]

Michael: I’m guessing my mom told you as much as she told me, that she went to Alexis’ house, Harmony was there, they got into a fight, and then Harmony — Harmony drugged her.

Willow: [ Scoffs ] But why?

Michael: I don’t know.

Willow: Well, your mom does.

Michael: [ Sighs ] Yes, and she’ll tell you, okay? She will. But Willow, knowing right now, whatever it is, it’s not going to change anything. We just — we have to wait. And I get it. Waiting is torture, but… sometimes it’s best not to know, at least in the short term. That way you can just focus on what’s right in front of you, and that is that Harmony’s in critical condition, and that’s scary, right, but she’s made it this far, she loves you, and she’s going to get through this. Maybe that is all that matters.

Harmony: [ Weakly ] Willow.

Carly: Willow’s here. She just stepped out, but I can text her.

Harmony: No, I need to… I have to…

Carly: Okay, I’m going to get somebody in here for you, okay?

Harmony: N-N-Nina.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Mac (to Robert): What if you do the parenthood thing all over again?

Anna (to Felicia): You’re not…

Valentin: Maybe it again.

Nina (to Phyllis): There’s a way forward for Sonny and me.

Sonny (into phone): I can’t wait to see you.

Sasha: That means that there’s hope.

Carly: You need to get back to the ICU.

Harmony: Willow can never know.

Frank: Almost time.

Sonny: You know what to do when he gets here.

Frank: I do.

Nina: Looking for someone?

N’neka: Can I get you anything else?

Maxie: No, we’re okay. Thanks, N’neka.

N’neka: Well, in that case, enjoy the rest of your night.

Maxie: You, too.

Austin: Thanks. You know, we could get another one and then just ride share.

Maxie: Oh, I wish, but I need to relieve my mom and Mac of babysitting duty.

Austin: Okay. Want to make a plan for tomorrow night, then?

Maxie: I’m counting on it.

Austin: Alright. I got it.

Maxie: I was going to treat you.

Austin: Please, it’s my treat.

Maxie: But I did order that fancy top-shelf drink.

Austin: Maxie, I’m a doctor, remember? I can afford to buy you a drink.

---

Elizabeth: I miss you, too. I wish I could be there with you guys. Things are just… really hard right now. But remember, it’s only temporary until we figure out what’s going on at home, okay?

[ Knock on door ]

Elizabeth: Honey, I have to go. That’s room service. I love you. Tell Aiden I love him, too, and I’ll call you soon, okay? Bye.

Finn: Hi.

---

Michael: Dr. Westbourne.

Britt: Can I help you?

Michael: Yeah, look, Willow and I have been waiting for an update on Harmony.

Britt: Ms. Miller is still in surgery. I will make sure Dr. Ashford finds you and Willow as soon as he has an update.

Michael: That’s not good enough!

---

Alexis: Cafeteria really needs to improve their selection.

Sam: You know what, Mom, maybe this isn’t a good idea right now. Maybe we should go back home. I think you need to rest.

Alexis: I need to check on Harmony.

Sam: She tried to kill you.

Alexis: Harmony and I have unfinished business. And I intend to finish it.

---

Willow: My mom’s accident makes no sense. Do you know what happened?

Carly: Gladys told me that Sasha’s the one who hit Harmony.

Willow: Sasha said my mom came out of nowhere and ran right in front of her car. But why? Why was she there in the first place? That area is so remote. In the E.R., You said you and Alexis were with my mom before the accident at Rana Point.

Carly: We were. Yeah. This is going to be hard to hear and even harder to understand. So you’re going to have to prepare yourself.

What happened? W-why was my mother even there?

---

Felicia: Is someone having trouble sleeping? Huh? Huh? Aww.

Mac: I hate to break it to you, kid, but sleep doesn’t come any easier once you get older.

Felicia: Oh, no, no, no. Don’t listen to grumpy grandpa. Georgie and James are sleeping just fine.

Mac: Yeah, for now.

Felicia: You are so beautiful. Yes, you are. Just like your mama and aunt Georgie. Remember Georgie and Maxie? Remember those days?

Mac: Like it was yesterday.

Felicia: Ah, those were special times, weren’t they?

Mac: I miss them. Wish I could go back in time and relive those days.

Felicia: Me too. If only that was possible.

---

Maxie: Look, I’m sorry if I offended you.

Austin: No, I — oh, Maxie, I-I’m sorry. I think maybe the wrong words just came out of my mouth. You know, you bought dinner, so I-I thought I could pick up the nightcap because balance is an important part of a good relationship, right?

Maxie: Spinelli?

Spinelli: Um, greetings and felicitations, fair lady. Um, might I trouble you for a moment of your time?

Maxie: Oh.

Austin: Ooh.

Maxie: Oh, poor Spinelli.

Austin: Yeah.

Maxie: He’s trying to re-enter the dating pool.

Austin: Looks like he just, you know, dove into the deep end head first.

Maxie: Yeah, he and Ellie were such a good match. Now it looks like he’s maybe trying too hard.

Austin: What’s he wearing?

Maxie: I know, right? Spinelli has such a unique sense of style, and now it’s like he’s trying to be somebody he’s not.

Austin: I could talk to him, you know, if you think that might help.

Maxie: Really?

Austin: Yeah.

Maxie: That’s so sweet. I know he’s missing Jason. Spinelli! Over here.

Spinelli: Oh, Maximista. Delight to see you, as always. Dr. Gatlin-Holt.

Austin: Please, call me Austin. It’s good to see you.

Maxie: This is the second night I’ve seen you here.

Spinelli: Oh. [ Chuckles ]

Austin: You like The Savoy?

Spinelli: Uh, I — it’s the — it’s the perfect aesthetic for my — for my needs.

Maxie: Companionship? Don’t you want to diversify? I mean, there’s other places to meet people aside from The Savoy.

Austin: Yeah, doesn’t have to be a bar or restaurant. It could be a group with common interests. You know, people who share similar interests.

Spinelli: I know what common interests are. Ah, you know, and I appreciate your counsel, but I assure you, it’s unnecessary. I’m managing perfectly fine.

Maxie: Oh, Spinelli. You don’t have to lie. We saw that woman turn you down.

Nina: Fancy meeting you here. So what brings you to the savoy? Business or…pleasure?

Sonny: Well, actually, I’m just taking in the sights, and they’re incredibly beautiful. You look good.

Nina: Thank you. I’m… I’m just meeting Britt and aunt Liesl here for a girls’ night out.

Sonny: Where are your cowboy boots?

Nina: Oh, I think they only work in Nixon Falls, although they’re a lot more comfortable than these heels.

Sonny: Everything’s a lot more comfortable in Nixon Falls, right?

Nina: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: Especially after we exposed Elijah Crowe.

Nina: Sounds like you miss the place.

Sonny: Well, you know, sometimes I think about what it would be like to be back there, especially after a hard day.

Nina: Hard day like today?

---

Michael: Look, I’m sorry. I was completely out of line. No, just Willow — Willow’s a wreck. I saw my mom briefly in the E.R., But I… couldn’t say anything to her. And then I explain to my son why Willow and I won’t be home to tuck him in tonight. Kept asking me why, and I can’t — I can’t — I can’t say why. How — how — I can’t explain what’s going on with both his grandmothers.

Britt: And helplessness is not a trait you’re comfortable with.

Michael: No, but still, I shouldn’t have — shouldn’t have lashed out like that.

Britt: It’s frustrating waiting for answers, I know.

Doctor: Dr. Westbourne. Dr. Ashford and i need to consult with you.

Britt: Will you excuse me?

Sam: I don’t understand how she can befriend you after everything you’ve done for her. Mm. She seeking some sort of an absolution?

Alexis: If so, she’s not getting it from me. I won’t let her deflect blame either. I want Harmony to fully understand the extent of her destruction.

Sam: You want closure.

Alexis: Which I might never get if Harmony doesn’t survive.

Britt: We need to find Willow now.

Michael: She’s in the chapel.

Alexis: Excuse me. Do you have an update on Harmony miller?

Sam: Mom.

Alexis: Is she out of surgery?

Britt: Ms. Miller’s family will be notified first. We’ll let you know.

Sam: Uh, okay. The hell with this. Um, excuse me, doctor. I just saw you with dr. Westbourne. I’m Harmony Miller’s niece. This is her sister. Is she out of surgery?

Doctor: She is.

Sam: She is? Oh, thank goodness. Would you happen to know what room she’s in?

---

Carly: Your mother attacked me and Alexis.

Willow: Wait. Oh, my — are — are you okay?

Carly: Yes, I’m fine.

Willow: What — no, no, no. What ha– what happened?

Carly: We are both fine.

Willow: Why would my mom attack you?

Carly: I was at Alexis’s house. Harmony was there. We got into a fight, and Harmony stuck me with a syringe and she drugged me.

Willow: My — my mother drugged you? W-what were you fighting about?

Carly: I discovered a secret that Harmony wanted to keep.

Willow: What would be so bad that my mom would attack you?

---

Carly: I know you have a lot of questions. Starting with how Harmony ended up on Rana Point. She drove us there in my SUV. I don’t know what happened because I was unconscious, but when I woke up, I could hear Harmony and Alexis arguing. And when I climbed out of the trunk, Harmony was about to attack Alexis.

Willow: Oh, my god. That is… I don’t understand.

Carly: I was able to stop Harmony, but when she heard Alexis calling 911, she took off for the woods and she must have found the road, and that’s where she jumped in front of Sasha’s car.

Willow: But why did my mom attack you in the first place? What secret was she trying to keep? Whatever it is, I can handle it. I promise.

[ Door opens ]

Michael: Hey.

Carly: Hey.

Michael: Willow, there’s an update on your mom.

Carly: Um, this can wait, alright? I’m going to give you some privacy.

Willow: How is she?

Britt: Harmony made it through surgery. She did, however, suffer several substantial injuries. She’s been admitted to the ICU.

Willow: What’s wrong with her?

Britt: She had significant internal bleeding, as well as damage to multiple organs. The surgical team did all they could, but your mom became severely hypotensive and they had to stop operating. For now, we will continue to stabilize her while evaluating the extent of her injuries.

Michael: Will she need further surgery?

Britt: That’s still being determined.

Willow: Can I see her?

Britt: She’s unconscious, but she’s allowed visitors.

Willow: Thank you. All this time in nursing school and my mind is…blank. What does this mean?

Michael: It’s still touch and go.

Willow: So now it’s up to my mom to survive.

---

[ Monitor beeping ]

Alexis: [ Sighs ] This seems wrong. What if Harmony’s not even awake?

Sam: Then we stay until she opens her eyes.

Alexis: [ Sighs ]

Sam: Mom, this could be your last chance to get closure. I mean, it’s going to be up to you. Do you want it or not?

---

Maxie: It was that woman’s loss, not yours.

Austin: It happens to everybody. Don’t even think about it.

Spinelli: Quartermaines still think about you trying to wrangle a share of their company?

Maxie: Spinelli!

Spinelli: Sorry, sorry.

Austin: Do you kayak? It’s getting really nice and I was thinking about going out on the lake, and if you’d like, you can join me. It’d be fun.

Spinelli: My schedule’s rather full these days.

Maxie: Oh, kayaking sounds fun. Are you sure you can’t go?

Spinelli: Sure I can move some things around.

Ausitn: Great.

Spinelli: Let me know when you’re planning to go.

Maxie: It’s settled! Perfect!

Austin: You bet.

Maxie: Okay, now we have to go.

Spenelli: Oh.

Austin: Hey, man, and if you get a chance to talk to another woman tonight, don’t overthink it. Just — just be yourself.

Maxie: Yeah. Don’t overthink it.

Maxie: Oh, hey.

Austin: How are you?

Nina: You want to talk about your hard day?

Michael: You tore this family part. I’m not gonna excuse it or gloss it over.

Sonny: I love you. You’re my son. I’m always going to love you.

Michael: So you keep saying.

Sonny: But I’m not gonna forget this. If you want me to forgive, you’re gonna have to beg.

Michael: Well, don’t hold your breath.

Sonny: It’s all good, Nina. Nothing I can’t handle.

Nina: I’m sure you can. But —

Liesl: sorry I’m late, Nina. I reserved a table. Come.

Nina: Um, bye?

Sonny: Everything good with the game?

Frank: Smooth.

Sonny: Alright. Can you wait for me outside?

Frank: Yeah.

Spinelli: Uh, Mr. Corinthos, sir. Just wanted to pay my respects.

Sonny: What can I do for you, Spinelli?

Spinelli: Just far too many unsavory characters here tonight.

---

Finn: Violet and I spent the whole afternoon at the nail salon. I actually got a nice lavender high gloss, but it didn’t go with my shoes. Violet, however, is over the moon, in between her Uncle Chase staying with her and her new manicure, she barely acknowledged my departure.

Elizabeth: Staying with her? You make it sound like he’s moved in.

Finn: Yes, temporarily. I booked the room next to you.

Elizabeth: Finn! The whole point of staying here was so that I’d feel safe and away from whoever’s stalking me. I don’t want you upending your life for me. I’ll be fine.

Finn: Mm. You know, Elizabeth, you’re, um… you’re always brave for everyone else. It’s… it’s okay to admit you need someone, too. It’s kind of why I’m here. I… and because I owe you.

Elizabeth: For what?

Finn: Where to start? When I thought I killed Peter August, when I was working myself into the ground to find a cure for Chase, I wasn’t the easiest person to be around during all that. And you showed me nothing but kindness and you were supportive. And it’s the least I can do to thank you.

Elizabeth: You don’t owe me anything.

Finn: You know, one of the best parts of our relationship — is it okay if I call it a relationship?

Elizabeth: I’ll allow it.

Finn: Just this once?

Elizabeth: Mm-hmm.

Finn: Okay.

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ]

Finn: It’s that we trust each other and… we’re honest with each other and we can be there for each other. Yeah?

Elizabeth: Yeah.

Finn: Good. So how are you really?

Elizabeth: I’m totally freaked out. I just want to go home with my boys and forget this nightmare ever happened.

Finn: I think I might be able to help you with the last part.

---

Willow: How did this happen? How did my mom end up like this?

Michael: I-I know things seem bleak right now, but you can’t lose faith, alright? Your mom, she’s tough. She’s going to make it through this.

Willow: I thought so, too, but after what Carly just told me…

Michael: What did my mom tell you?

Willow: I-I’m sorry. I know I should tell you. I-I just — I can’t. I can’t think about it right now.

Michael: Okay. That’s okay. Don’t worry. I’ll get the story from my mom. All you have to do right now is you have to focus on how much your mother loves you. She’s going to do everything in her power to stay with you.

Willow: I pray you’re right. Okay. I’m ready to see my mother.

---

Spinelli: May I purchase a cocktail for you? Whatever it is that you prefer beverage-wise?

Sonny: Platinum, huh? So what’d you do, win the lottery?

Spinelli: Oh.

[ Both Chuckle]

Spinelli: I’m just, uh, working on a new business venture.

Sonny: Yeah? What’s that?

Spinelli: It’s still in the planning stages, but, you know, when I’m ready to launch, you’ll be the first to know.

Sonny: Well, you know, it looks like you got a lot going on in your life.

Spinelli: I honestly don’t know what you mean, Mr. Corinthos.

Sonny: Well, I mean, a new business venture, maybe even a new woman.

Nina: What the hell was that? You completely ignored Sonny.

Liesl: The man threatened mein Scott.

Nina: Because Scott provoked him.

Liesl: So Scott was asking for it?

Nina: Oh, Liesl. You know about Scott and Sonny’s history and their tempers. Sonny won’t hurt Scott again as long as your boyfriend doesn’t go around looking for trouble.

Liesl: I don’t care who seeks out whom. If something happens to Scott, Sonny Corinthos will feel my wrath.

Nina: What? You mean you’re gonna take on Sonny? That’s a good one.

Liesl: Mob hits and gunfights will be pleasant memories compared to my vengeance.

Nina: Let it go.

Liesl: I can’t believe you would side with that man instead of your own family.

Nina: I’m not siding with anyone, but don’t force me to!

Britt: Are you two actually fighting over guys?

---

Felicia: If there was a way to relive those days, what do you think that would look like?

Mac: Not following.

Felicia: I mean, you never had a child of your own.

Mac: Yeah, but it didn’t matter to me that Maxie, George, and Robin weren’t mine biologically. I mean, you know I love them and raised them as if they were.

Felicia: Mm-hmm. You were a father to them in every way that counted. I was and I still am very grateful for that. But surely you wish that you would have had a child of your own, one we could have raised together?

Mac: That would have been nice.

Felicia: Really feel that way?

Mac: What are we talking about here?

---

[ Monitor beeping ]

Alexis: This is ridiculous. How am I supposed to talk to you while you’re like this? I wanted to tell you how absolutely furious I am with you. Furious doesn’t even begin to cover it. I never asked for your friendship, but you came along when I needed it most. And I valued our friendship, stood up for you when everyone told me to dump you. Now I learn your friendship was just a way to clear your conscience about killing Neil. I saw glimpses of a good person in you, Harmony. Was any of it even real? Maybe you could have had a different life. You could have had a relationship with Willow based on honesty.

Willow: Alexis.

---

Spinelli: And who, pray tell, might this new woman be?

Sonny: Well, maybe not new, but rediscovered, ’cause I saw the way you were looking at Maxie when she walked out with her boyfriend.

Spinelli: I-I-I will always love Maxie. She’s — she’s the mother of my child. But I do not love her romantically. I just — I just — I just wish for her happiness and…a better man than that — than that would-be Quartermain.

Sonny: Spinelli, man to man, if there’s a woman that you’re after, uh, that you — you — you care about, right? Whether it’s Maxie or anybody else, you got to follow your heart. You got to tell them what they mean to you before it’s too late.

Spinelli: Thank you, Mr. Corinthos, sir, for your hard-won wisdom, which, of course, I know you also live by.

Britt: It was just a punch in the gut, how close Willow is to losing her mother. Especially since it hasn’t been that long since we reconnected. And then I almost killed you with that spear gun.

Liesl: [ Chuckles ] But you didn’t, Britta. Here I am, safe and sound. [ Chuckles ]

Britt: I know I’m supposed to keep my professional distance, but I couldn’t help being reminded that none of us have as much time as we think.

Nina: I regret my missed opportunity to be close with my daughter. You’re very lucky. Life is really short, isn’t it? And I’m not going to waste it being mad at someone that I love.

Liesl: Neither will I. [ Sighs ]

---

Felicia: You ever seen such an angel?

Mac: I’m looking at one.

Felicia: [ Sighs ] So, about reliving the past.

Mac: Is that what we were talking about?

Felicia: Weren’t we?

Mac: Felicia?

Felicia: Mac. [ Laughs ] Well…

[ Door opens ]

Felicia: Oh, hey, welcome back. How was your night?

Maxie: Hi! Oh, you know, other than tripping at the Metro Court, we had a great time.

Felicia: Oh, my God.

Maxie: We went to a wine tasting.

Mac: Oh.

Felicia: Nice.

Mac: Ouch on the finger, but sounds like fun.

Austin: Eh, it was pretty good.

Maxie: Hey, the way you downed that foie gras, I think you thought it was more that pretty good.

Austin: Okay, so here’s the thing. Like, my — my life so far, my tastes have run towards the can of beans and hot dog over an open fire kind of thing. Turns out… goose liver is delicious.

Mac: Well, Maxie’s always had expensive taste.

Felicia: Well, there’s nothing wrong with enjoying the finer things in life.

Mac: All I’m saying is it’s a good thing Maxie’s company went public so she can pay for those finer things.

Maxie: Hey, it’s better than when I used to run up your credit card in high school, right?

Mac: [ Laughs ] Yeah, well, we can all laugh about it now, but wait till it’s your turn. I mean, you know, it may seem like years off, but blink, and before you know it, your own kids will be running up their own extracurricular shopping.

Maxie: Okay, well, when that day comes, I’ll be thinking of you. So be kind.

Mac: Okay. [ Chuckles ]

---

Elizabeth: Okay, so now that the dinner portion of our evening is over, how are you going to help me forget that I’m being stalked by a dangerous weirdo?

Finn: It’s funny you should ask.

Elizabeth: We’re playing cards?

Finn: Not just any cards. This is slapjack. You never played slapjack?

Elizabeth: [ Chuckling ] No.

Finn: Oh, my goodness. Alright. So we each get a pile of cards, alright? We take turns flipping them over.

Elizabeth: Mm-hmm.

Finn: And if one of us gets a jack, we try to slap it. Whoever slaps it first gets to take it. Any questions?

Elizabeth: No questions, doctor.

Finn: [ Laughs ] Ladies first.

Elizabeth: Alright. Oh!

Finn: You got to be kidding me!

Elizabeth: Who taught you how to play, Violet?

Finn: My daughter loves a good, semi-violent card game. Okay, my turn.

Elizabeth: Okay.

Finn: [ Sighs ]

Elizabeth: Go.

Finn: No. Kidding me.

Elizabeth: How did you know? Know what? This is exactly what I needed. After seeing people in my house, hearing voices…

Finn: wait. Voices? Has someone tried to contact you?

---

Alexis: Willow, I am so sorry about Harmony.

[ Monitor beeping ]

Michael: Do you want some privacy?

Willow: Do you mind?

Michael: It’s fine. I’ll be outside the room if you need me, okay?

[ Door closes ]

Willow: Oh, mom. What have you done?

---

Sam: Did you get what you needed?

Alexis: Yes and no.

Carly: Hey.

Michael: Hey. Sorry we, uh — we kept missing each other.

Carly: Yeah, well, you’ve been with Willow, and that’s where you need to be right now.

Michael: Well, you had a tough night, too.

Carly: Yes, but Willow is more important, okay?

Michael: Yeah, well, she’s… with Harmony, so now you can tell me. So what were you and Alexis doing in the E.R., And what does it have to do with Harmony?

---

Alexis: Let’s go home.

Sam: You sure?

Alexis: Yeah. Carly can handle things from here.

Carly: Thank you for everything you did tonight.

Alexis: Back at you.

Michael: Care to explain?

Carly: Harmony drugged me and tried to kill Alexis.

Michael: W-why?

Carly: For Willow.

Willow: What am I supposed to think, mom?

[ Monitor beeping ]

Willow: I knew you were capable of doing harm, doing wrong. But I thought you were misguided. I never thought you were a murderer. Well, there’s got to be more to this story. Your rehabilitation was not an act, unless it was and I didn’t want to see it. Because despite everything you’ve done to me and to others, you are still my mom. I never stopped loving you, even when it hurt. So please… Mom… wake up. Do you hear me? I still love you. Isn’t that worth living for?

---

Nina: I’m going to go to the ladies’ room, okay?

Britt: I’ll order you another drink.

Nina: Sure. I’ll just take a ride share home. Be right back.

Britt: I’m glad you and Nina kissed and made up.

Liesl: She is as dear to me as you are, Britta. I wish you both happy and full lives for the future. I know your diagnosis weighs on you. How could it not? But you still have much to look forward to.

Britt: I’m trying, okay? It’s just been a rough couple of days.

Liesl: Aside from this woman Harmony’s terrible accident, what else has happened?

Britt: Well, for one thing, I was stood up by the stupid date that stupid matchmaking service set me up with.

Liesl: That schwein! How dare he reject my beautiful and intelligent daughter?

Britt: It was the guy with the cat.

Liesl: I told you not to date the cat man. If you want an attentive person, find someone with a ferret.

Britt: [ Laughs ] Okay. But, I mean, here’s the thing. Why waste time I really don’t have on a man?

Liesl: Is it that you don’t want any man or that you only want the man you lost?

Britt: I didn’t lose him.

Liesl: Yes, Britta, you did. Jason should have chosen you. If he had, all our lives might be different. What is indisputable is that he saved your life and helped you to save mine. You were different with him, Britta. Stronger, and yet more vulnerable. It’s unfair that what was between you was left unfinished, and you have every right to grieve. But the greater waste would be to deny yourself happiness now in the present, longing for a man who is… dead and a love that is gone.

Britt: Well, let’s just say Jason made a strong impression.

Liesl: Which is why you should broaden your horizons. Instead of looking for a danger-man who could rescue you in a hail of gunfire, find someone who will get you out of the hospital doing fun things. A shoulder you can cry on, or — or share a great laugh with you. If you won’t do it for yourself, my dearest Britta, do it for me. Mm?

Britt: Well, you sure play hardball, don’t you?

[ Both laugh ]

Liesl: Don’t I always?

Britt: Okay, mother, okay. I will carry on with my man hunting.

Liesl: Good. Now, I must be off.

Britt: Already?

Liesl: Scott awaits. He promises an eventful night.

Britt: Oh, okay, go, go. Get out of here.

Liesl: I love you, Britta.

Britt: I love you, too.

Liesl: Tell nina I said auf wiedersehen, okay?

---

Felicia: Don’t you just love being grandparents?

Mac: Well, other than being married to you, it’s the best feeling in the world.

Felicia: You’re such a charmer. I just love spending time with those precious little ones.

Mac: I would spend all my time with them if I could. Would you?

Felicia: Absolutely. Who could ask for anything more?

Mac: Who could?

---

Elizabeth: No, no one contacted me. It was nothing.

Finn: Then — then what did you mean about hearing voices?

Elizabeth: Okay, so a — a patient called to remind me that he wanted an extra blanket, and he started out by saying, “Don’t forget me.”

Finn: Like the intruder said to you.

Elizabeth: At first it sounded like a completely different voice. Almost otherworldly. Obviously, I misheard him. It was a really long day.

Finn: Yeah, you sure that Lucy hasn’t got into your head?

Elizabeth: I am not sleeping, I’m stressed, I…

Finn: But?

Elizabeth: But between Aiden’s Ouija board and hearing Lucy talk about her beliefs, I don’t know what to think anymore, other than I’m completely losing it.

Finn: No. No, I… I can’t imagine anyone else handling this as well as you have. These occurrences would have broken a weaker person. I mean… I already knew you were strong, but I’m… kind of in awe of you.

Elizabeth: I don’t feel strong. Or awesome.

Finn: Doesn’t matter. ‘Cause I’m going to keep telling you that you are. Strong. Awesome. I think you’re perfect.

---

Austin: Kids asleep?

Maxie: Sleeping the sleep of the innocent.

Austin: As they should be. Sounds really nice, actually. I should get going.

Maxie: Okay.

Austin: Thank you for a really lovely evening. We’ll do it again sometime.

Maxie: Name the day.

Austin: Tomorrow.

Maxie: Tomorrow? We did say we would do something tomorrow, didn’t we?

Austin: Mm-hmm.

Maxie: Or did we? Honestly, you know, there was so much going on between that vulture photographer and then running into Spinelli. Thank you, by the way, for being so kind to him. He’s usually like that, you know, really stand-offish. But he’ll like you as soon as he gets to know you. I know he will. I’m just so worried Spinelli’s lonely. He lost Jason and Ellie in a time span of just a few months, and he’s trying to figure out what’s next for him.

Austin: Maxie.

Maxie: Where was I? Oh, yes, tomorrow. Okay, um… I do really want to see you tomorrow.

Austin: Great.

Maxie: But Georgie and James have activities, and I really need to bake. Or I need to go to Eckert’s and throw myself at their mercy for four dozen cupcakes, which will probably clean them out, but —

Austin: Okay, Maxie. If you don’t want to hang out tomorrow night, all you got to do is say so.

---

Nina: Where’s your mom?

Britt: She — she dumped us for Scott. She told me to tell you auf wiedersehen.

Nina: Oh. Who would’ve guessed out of the three of us, she is the one who has the love interest?

Britt: Never would have thought. No. Busy day at GH, though. I’m going to call it a night.

Nina: No!

Britt: Yes. What about you?

Nina: I’m going to be sulking because you’re calling it a night. It’s alright. I’m just going to finish my wine, and… no matter how short our visit is, it’s always nice to see you.

Britt: Back at you.

Nina: I love you. I’ll see you soon.

Britt: Love you. Bye.

Spinelli: [ Sighs ]

Britt: That’s certainly colorful.

Spinelli: [ Chuckles ] The hope is that it would lift my mood. Speaking of.

Britt: How am I doing after my date stood me up? Oh, wonderful. Fantastic. I am filled with self-confidence. No self-pity at all.

Spinelli: Just research shows that the majority of people who sign up have a good experience with matchmaking services.

Britt: So I’m in the minority?

Spinelli: I just mean to say that you should keep trying. Your Mr. Right is out there, and waiting for him is definitely worth the effort. Just don’t give up.

Britt: You sound like my mother.

Spinelli: Liesl Obrecht. Heaven forfend.

Britt: [ Laughs ] Thank you for that, Spinelli. I needed it.

Spinelli: Does that mean you’ll take my advice and try matchmaking again?

Britt: [ Sighs ] I said yes to my mother just to pacify her, so don’t push your luck. Enjoy your drink. [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: I’m sorry. Um, is this seat taken?

Nina: It is now.

---

Michael: So you saved Alexis’s life?

Carly: Well, she saved mine, too. I don’t know what would’ve happened if Alexis didn’t show up. I think Harmony was trying to stage some kind of accident and make it look like I drove off Rana Point.

Michael: Why? What was she trying to cover up?

Carly: A secret about Willow. And before you ask, I need to tell Willow first. I’m just debating whether I tell her tonight, because she’s got a hell of a lot going on right now.

Michael: Look, mom, you don’t have to protect Willow. She’s strong, and she deserves to know the secret that her mother was willing to kill for.

[ Monitor beeping ]

Willow: If you don’t come back to me, we’ll never know if we can sort this out. I have so many things I didn’t get to say to you. We have a lifetime of things left to say to each other. Please, mom, give us that chance, I’m begging you.

[ Sobbing ]

[ Gasps ]

On the next “General Hospital” —

Lucy: And it’s about to get hotter.

Austin (to Maxie): You’re just looking for an excuse to push me away.

Valentin (into phone): I will do what has to be done.

TJ (to Michael): If I ever cross that line, it’s time to put down my stethoscope.

Sonny (to Nina): That’s something I can’t easily forgive.

Willow (to Carly): Whatever it is, just tell me.

Elizabeth: Finn!

[ Keys jingling ]

[ Door opens ]

Nikolas: Hello, darling.

Ava: Please tell me you haven’t been lurking there all this time waiting for me to come in.

Nikolas: Would that be so wrong?

Ava: Don’t you have anything better to do than to wait for me to come… home.

Nikolas: What could be better than spending time alone with my wife?

---

Trina: I get how that can be important to you.

Spencer: You always do.

Trina: But not as much as Esme gets you, right? I’ll leave your to-do list so you can hurry home to your phony, twisted witch you consider the love of your life.

Spencer: Esme is anything but that.

Trina: Anything but what, Spencer, a twisted witch or the love of your life?

---

Carly: No, Mom, I’m fine. I’m fine. In fact, they discharged me. No, no. I’m going to wait around to see if Harmony is alright. You know, for Willow’s sake. Her whole world has been turned upside down tonight.

---

 

Willow: Thank you. I just need a minute.

Michael: Yeah. Take as much time as you need.

Willow: [ Sighs ] Don’t feel like you have to stay with me. You should go make sure your mom is okay.

Michael: I texted Josslyn. She’s on her way, so I’m not going anywhere. Unless you — unless you want to be alone.

Willow: No, no. I want you here. I want you here with me. [ Sighs ] What was my mother doing walking down a road at night in the woods by herself? It doesn’t make any sense.

Michael: I don’t know. Hopefully — hopefully, we’ll know more soon.

Willow: My mom and I just started getting close. If she doesn’t make it, I will never forgive myself for pushing her away.

---

 

Sasha: [ Breathing heavily ]

Gladys: There you are. Oh, God, you bolted so fast, your shoes left skid marks.

Sasha: Willow didn’t see me, did she?

Gladys: No, no, no, no. Poor thing is a mess. Michael’s taking her to the chapel, or at least they were going in that direction. And it’s probably gonna be a while before the doctors have anything to tell her about her mom. Unless, of course… oh, unless — unless it’s not as bad as we thought. Okay, okay. Let’s get you to a chair. You need to — you’re gonna be okay.

Sasha: No.

Brando: Sasha.

Sasha: No, I need to get out of here.

Brando: It’s okay. I got you.

Sasha: No, Brando. No, it’s not okay. I might’ve killed Willow’s mother.

---

 

Nikolas: I shouldn’t have taken for granted that you’d be coming home.

Ava: Are you wooing me?

Nikolas: What if I am? I mean, dinner may be a bust, but there’s still plenty of time for dessert.

Ava: It’s not gonna work. Why not? I have made my position clear. As long as Esme is here —

Nikolas: Esme isn’t here.

Ava: Since when?

Nikolas: My mother stopped by earlier. She got Sonny to give his word that no harm will come to Esme. And now Esme can go back to the mainland, and you and I can devote all of our time to each other.

---

 

Spencer: Trina, things with Esme, they’re complicated.

Trina: Except they’re not. Would you like me to explain to you what’s going on here?

Spencer: Sure. What do you think is going on?

Trina: You’re keeping me on the hook. I let myself believe that you can be a better person, and now you miss that feeling, so you’re trying to reel me in to your orbit.

Spencer: No, Trina, that is not —

Trina: Okay, then that’s the only explanation I can come up with as to why you’re giving me so many mixed signals.

Spencer: I’m not giving you mixed signals. I’m not.

Trina: Oh, really? Then what was that jealous act with Rory?

Spencer: I am not jealous of that guy.

Trina: So what? It doesn’t matter if you’re jealous or not. You made the choice. Deal with it. Just remember that you threw away our friendship for some psycho girlfriend.

Esme: I’m not the psycho, Trina. You are.

---

 

Josslyn: Mom.

Carly: Josslyn, what are you doing here?

Josslyn: Michael said that you were in the E.R. Are you — are you okay?

Carly: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’m fine. I’m fine, sweetie. I am.

Josslyn: Okay. He said that Willow’s mom got in a car accident. Were you involved?

Carly: No. No, I was not there when Harmony was hit by a car.

Josslyn: Oh, my god, I’ve been freaking out the whole way here. If anything was to happen to you —

Carly: Oh, but it didn’t, okay? It didn’t.

Josslyn: I’m glad you’re okay. Wait, so what were you doing in the E.R.?

---

 

Willow: You would think at a time like this, it would be really easy to focus on the good times. But for me and my mom, there’s no good that isn’t touched by the bad. It’s impossible to separate the two.

Michael: Willow, you’re strong enough to forgive her. To see that she genuinely wanted to make up for A… [ Sighs ] A lifetime of… well, I don’t have to tell you.

Willow: I’ve accepted that my mom allowed horrible things to happen to me because Shiloh manipulated her. And even though it took me a long time to forgive her, she never gave up on me. For the first time in a very long time, I started to feel my mother’s love. I’m not ready to be without it again.

---

 

Brando: Can you tell me what happened?

Sasha: What happened is that Willow’s mom is fighting for her life, and it’s all my fault.

Gladys: It’s not all your fault.

Brando: How about we, um… how about we start from the beginning?

Sasha: This photographer, a paparazzi guy, he kept taking pictures of me at the Metro Court.

Gladys: Oh, she’s underselling it, Brando. This jerk was harassing her.

Sasha: It was just — it was too much, so we left. And the next thing I knew, this guy was chasing us down in his car. He was right behind me, flashing his high beams, and I couldn’t see anything.

Gladys: Yeah, and then this woman ran right out into the middle of the road.

Sasha: Ohh.

Gladys: [ Sighs ]

Sasha: I tried to swerve, Brando, but there wasn’t time.

Brando: Look, it’s — it’s — it’s okay. You didn’t do anything wrong. Alright? This was an accident.

Gladys: That is what I’ve been saying. If that sleaze ball hadn’t have been coming after us, we wouldn’t have been driving that fast down that stretch of road. We ought to sue him. So should Willow. Or Michael — he’s got lawyers.

Brando: What I don’t understand is why the photographer was chasing you.

Gladys: He had a reason.

---

 

Carly: And Harmony had a needle, and she managed to inject me.

Josslyn: Oh, god. What? Mom.

Carly: I know. I was in the back of my SUV when I woke up, and I could hear Alexis and Harmony arguing. And then when I got out of the car, we were parked on Rana Point. And I-I jumped Harmony and we fought and Harmony took off running when she heard Alexis calling 911.

Josslyn: Is Alexis okay?

Carly: Yeah. Yeah, she’s okay. Sam took her home earlier. I mean, Alexis is okay, but Harmony jumped in front of a car, and I saw her when they brought her to the hospital.

Josslyn: Oh, my god.

Carly: I know. I mean, Alexis and I, we weren’t there when Harmony was hit. I don’t know when she was hit because we didn’t chase after her. We stayed and we waited for the cops. And the paramedics brought us here.

Josslyn: Okay. Um…sorry, I’m confused. Why did Harmony attack you in the first place?

Carly: You’re not burning tax documents. These are notes from a therapy session with Dr. Neil Byrne.

Harmony: What?

Carly: What? “Harmony suffers from intense guilt about the child.”

Harmony: Those are private. Give them to me.

Carly: “Harmony rationalizes keeping the child.”

Harmony: This is all lies. Neil Byrne was a drug addict. Give it to me.

Carly: No. This is what you meant about Willow not being yours. That’s what you’re doing here, right? You’re burning papers that prove that Willow isn’t your biological daughter.

Carly: Because I — I found out something that Harmony was desperately trying to keep secret. Something Willow does not know.

---

 

Michael: You know, one thing I know about your mom is she is a fighter. There’s nothing she won’t do to find her way back to you.

Willow: When I escaped from Dawn of Day, I would tell myself that I didn’t need a mother. And at the time, I was — I was right. But when my mom turned against Shiloh, she began to change, to make amends. And more and more, she became the mother she should have been all along.

Michael: She tried, no question.

Willow: I finally understand why some women say they will always need their mother. Because right now… I need mine.

---

 

Brando: What reason did the photographer have for chasing you?

Gladys: I stole his memory card.

Brando: You did what? Why would you do that?

Gladys: Well, he wouldn’t stop taking pictures of Sasha, even though every last one of us told him to knock it off. Sasha was getting extremely upset, and I wasn’t about to let some parasite with a camera exploit my daughter-in-law.

Brando: Good on you, mom.

Sasha: Willow is not gonna care about any of that. All that matters is that I hit her mother with my car and she might die.

Brando: Honey, like I said, it was a terrible accident. You didn’t mean to do this. Willow will understand.

Sasha: What if Harmony doesn’t make it? Willow will never forgive me. No, I will never forgive myself.

Brando: Hey, hey, hey, hey. We don’t have any control over that, okay? So let’s not worry about “what ifs.” Right now, you just need to tell Willow what happened.

Glady: Does she? Willow has enough on her plate. Sasha’s a wreck. Can’t it wait?

Sasha: No. No, it can’t. The whole reason I came here is because Willow deserves to hear the truth from me. But I don’t think I can face her.

Brando: Alright. There is no right or wrong here.

Gladys; Mm. I don’t know if I’d put it like that.

Sasha: [ Sobs ]

Brando: Sasha, hey, whatever you choose to do, I am behind you 100%. But if you want to tell Willow right now… you are the strongest person I know, so I know you can do this.

Sasha: Let’s go.

Brando: Okay.

---

 

Trina: I’m the psycho? Says the girl who was lurking in the shadows for who knows how long.

Spencer: Esme, what are you doing here?

Esme: It’s bad enough that you have half of Port Charles blaming me for Josslyn and Cam’s sad little sex tape.

Trina: Oh, only half? I better step up my game.

Esme: Even though all of the evidence points to you, your lies got me kidnapped by Sonny Corinthos.

Spencer: Which is why you’re supposed to be back at Wyndemere right now.

Esme: That’s what I came here to tell you. Your grandmother — the mayor — personally intervened on my behalf. She forced Sonny to back down. I’m safe now.

Spencer: That’s great, Esme.

Trina: I call it a tragic waste of cement.

Esme: Thank God Trina didn’t manage to poison everyone against me. You know, how does it feel, Trina, knowing people finally see through your good girl act?

---

Ava: Why did Sonny back down?

Nikolas: My mother didn’t explain Sonny’s rationale, but she told Esme while I was present, so she is aware that the threat is over.

Ava: So when is she moving out? Nikolas.

Nikolas: The thing is —

Ava: Oh, come on!

Nikolas: [ Sighs ]

Ava: Tell me you’re not letting her stay.

Nikolas: No, Esme is definitely not staying. We just haven’t set a date for her to move out yet.

Ava: We have a staff! They can pack up her stuff. They can put it on the launch. They can have it waiting for her on the pier tonight.

Nikolas: Esme is not going to wait for a launch to bring her back from town and find her luggage waiting.

Ava: Wait. So Esme went to the mainland?

Nikolas: To tell Spencer the good news.

Ava: The good news is that she can stay there.

Nikolas: Well, there’s the matter of how she’ll support herself.

Ava: The girl has a trust fund.

Nikolas: No, she’s only given a pittance for an allowance.

Ava: Nikolas, she was sent to school in Paris. Her life has not exactly been the stuff of dickens.

Nikolas: I promise you, Ava, Esme will be leaving Wyndemere and Spoon Island soon.

Ava: She better.

Nikolas: And the best part is, once she’s gone, all of our problems go with her.

Ava: Oh, Nikolas. My sweet, beautiful husband. No. They don’t.

---

 

Nikolas: The root of all of our problems is that I invited Esme to move in without consulting you.

Ava: The roots go far deeper than that, my love.

Nikolas: Before I invited Esme to stay here, we were planning to renew our vows. Are you telling me you weren’t happy?

Ava: I was. But when you told Spencer and Esme they could move in, it made me realize that I’ve been ignoring some very real issues.

Nikolas: Such as? Start from the top. What is our biggest issue?

Ava: The fact that I don’t trust you. Don’t look so surprised. You don’t trust me either.

Nikolas: This isn’t about trust. This is about the fact that I chose my son. That’s what you really have an issue with, isn’t it?

---

 

Esme: I refuse to take the blame for what you did to your supposed friends.

Spencer: That is enough. Let’s go!

Esme: No! Spence, I’m not gonna stand for it anymore. Mark my words, Trina. The next time you lie about me, there will be consequences.

Trina: You talk a good game, Esme. But know this. I see you. And soon, one day, everyone is going to see you for who you are — a needy, entitled psychopath who hurts everyone around them and wonders where they went. You are going to be all alone with no one left to fool. Except maybe that idiot. Now… I’m gonna put this away. And when I come back, you will not be here. The gallery is closed, Esme. You’re trespassing.

---

 

Carly: Harmony’s still in surgery. I mean, they don’t think she’s gonna make it.

Josslyn: Mom, you seem pretty worried about someone who just tried to kill you.

Carly: I’m worried about Willow. I mean, she has so much on her mind right now. Maybe I should just wait to tell her. But Jordan knows, and the last thing I want is for Willow to find out in the course of an investigation. But Jordan went home. So they’re probably not gonna question Willow tonight. So maybe I just wait.

Josslyn: Yeah. I mean, that’s — that’s one way to look at it.

Carly: Okay, what’s the other way?

Josslyn: Mom, I mean, can telling Willow tonight really make things much worse?

Carly: [ Sighs ]

---

 

Michael: Are you okay? Is there anything I can do, anything you need?

Willow: Right now… I need answers. And I think I’m feeling strong enough to get them.

Michael: Okay, then. Well, Joss should be here, so let’s go look for her and my mom and see if we can get an update on Harmony.

Willow: Okay.

Michael: Hey.

Willow: Hi.

Michael: I’m guessing you — you heard about Harmony.

Brando: Uh…we’re aware of what happened.

Willow: We were just about to go check and see how my mom is doing.

Sasha: I’m sorry. I know this is a terrible time, but I need to talk to you. Alone.

Willow: Um, sure. Yeah. Michael?

Michael: Yeah, I’ll go check on your mom.

Willow: Okay. I’ll meet you there.

Michael: Alright.

Sasha: Thank you for being here.

Brando: Where else would I be? You got this, okay?

Willow: So what do you need to talk about?

---

 

Michael: I saw my mom in the E.R. Before. I just texted Joss to see if they’re still there.

Brando: What was your mom doing in the E.R. In the first place?

Michael: I don’t know. She still hasn’t told me, but she seemed okay, so I just — just been focused on Willow.

Brando: Rough night all around. Well, keep me posted about Carly. I’m gonna stay here and wait for Sasha.

Michael: Sounds good.

Smoltz: Well, well, well, if it isn’t the husband of the Face of Deception. My sources tell me your wife ran down a pedestrian tonight. Any comment?

---

Josslyn: I am so sorry that all of this has happened, but I know that you’re gonna make the best choice for Willow.

Carly: I appreciate your vote of confidence.

Josslyn; Mm-hmm.

Carly: Gladys. What are you doing here?

Gladys: Uh…

Carly: Are Sasha and Brando okay?

Gladys: Physically, yes. I’m fine, too.

Carly: [ Chuckles ] I can see that.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Josslyn: I have to take this.

Carly: Okay.

Gladys: Has there been any word about how Harmony’s doing? Is she gonna pull through?

Carly: I don’t know. I don’t know. Why do you ask?

Gladys: Because I care deeply about the suffering of others. You might want to look into it sometime. Also, um…Sasha’s the one that ran her over.

Carly: Oh, my God.

Gladys: Yeah. Believe me, I know. I was in the car with her.

Carly: Where is Sasha now?

Gladys: Brando took her to see Willow. And I’m dreading what’s gonna happen when Sasha tells her.

---

 

Willow: So how did you find out about my mom? Did — did Carly call you?

Sasha: No, no, I — I know because, um… this is so hard to say. Um… okay. Gladys and I were driving down this — this back road. I was driving, and… this guy was chasing us. It’s not important why. The point is that he was flashing his high beams in my rearview. And, um…it was blinding, and I… I couldn’t see anything. The road was dark, and, um… and then out of nowhere… someone ran right in front my car. And I couldn’t see who it was until I got out to help, and, um… I’m so sorry, Willow. It was your mother.

---

 

Spencer: Trina was out of line. Don’t let her get to you.

Esme: Trina is not the one getting to me. Why is it that every time I see you, you’re having some kind of moment?

Spencer: What moment? We didn’t say anything that I wouldn’t have said in front of you.

Esme: Really? Not even the part where you were jealous of some guy?

Spencer: Not jealous. Annoyed. When I got here, she was talking to the cop who arrested me.

Esme: Why?

Spencer: This whole sex tape mess has the media harassing her.

Esme: Hmm, gee, too bad.

Spencer: Anyway… I don’t hate that guy because I’m jealous of him. I hate him because he’s a jerk.

Esme: Oh. Well, even so, I — I still can’t help but feeling like history is repeating itself.

Spencer: Trust me, it’s not. You’re the one I have my eyes on.

---

Brando: Who the hell are you?

Michael: Look, Smoltz, this is not a good time.

Brando: You know this creep?

Smoltz: This creep happens to be doing Mr. Corinthos a favor.

Michael: Mr. Smoltz is a reporter, and, yes, Willow and I are cooperating with him on a feature.

Smoltz: But I’m always on the lookout for the next great story. Now, Mr. Gilmore —

Brando: It’s Corbin.

Smoltz: Sure. About this pedestrian getting run down?

Brando: No comment.

Smoltz: Suit yourself. It’s better if I get a quote directly from Sasha Gilmore herself — or what did my source call her? Oh, yeah. “The face of Collision.”

Brando: You stay away from my wife.

Smoltz: Hey, I have rights under the first amendment, buddy.

Brando: Mr. Smoltz, is it?

Smoltz: Yeah.

Brando: I, uh — I fought for the U.S. Military to protect your rights, so I’m well aware of what they are. Now, the first amendment, that only protects you from government censorship. Michael, you run a media company. Do I have that right?

Michael: You sure do.

Brando: That’s what I thought. So… Mr. Smoltz…

Smoltz: Yeah?

Brando: Tell me, do I look like the government?

Smoltz: Uh…

Brando: Simple question.

Smoltz: No.

Brando: That’s right. Which means the first amendment won’t protect you if I catch you so much as breathing the same air as my wife. I will personally make sure that you are incapable of writing any story ever again. I doubt the journalism world would miss you. Not that they’d be able to find you if they did. Understood?

Smoltz: Yeah.

Michael: Okay, what — what happened with Sasha?

---

 

Willow: You’re the one who hit my mom?

Sasha: It was an accident, I swear. I’m so sorry, Willow. I would do anything, I would give anything to make it so that this didn’t happen, okay? I… is there anything that I can do for you? I — sounds so stupid. Of course there’s nothing. But I’m here for you if you need anything, okay? I’m — I’m sure I’m the last person you want to see right now, so I’m just gonna go.

Willow: Sasha, wait. Were you with Carly and Alexis?

Sasha: What?

Willow: Carly and Alexis were with my mom before the accident.

Sasha: No, no, I was coming from the Metro Court.

Willow: Okay. I’m going to ask you a question, and it might seem a little strange. Okay, but I just need you to think. Did it seem like… seem like my mom… jumped in front of your car… on purpose?

Sasha: [ Stammers ] I don’t — I don’t know. It — it happened so fast, and… I felt more like she just didn’t see me. Look, I-I — I know that you and Harmony haven’t had the easiest relationship, but — but from what it looked like, you guys were making amends, and I’m… I am so sorry that this happened now because of me. You’re the last person who deserves this. Should I go get Michael?

Willow: I just want some of this, any of this, to make sense.

---

 

Gladys: I’m really worried about Sasha. I don’t know how much more she can take.

Carly: Well, as long as I’ve known her, Sasha has weathered crisis after crisis, and she’s come back tougher every time.

Gladys: That was before. Since my grandson died, Sasha has been an open wound. If she killed her friend’s mother, what’s that gonna do to her?

Carly: We’re gonna get her through it. Okay? That’s what we’re gonna do.

Gladys: You — Carly, you didn’t see her with the photographer. I mean, she’s dealt with paparazzi before, right? She knows how to handle them even when they’re being jerks. But tonight, no, it’s like she was a different person. Panicked. Desperate. And the way she snapped… uh…excuse me. I…was going somewhere.

Carly: Okay.

Josslyn: Is everything okay with Sasha and Brando?

Carly: I… you know, I just need a hug. I need a hug.

Josslyn: Oh, mom. Are you sure you’re okay?

Carly: Yeah. It’s just been a night, you know? I mean, so much devastation and… [ Sighs ] I want you to know that I love you and I’m so grateful that I have you. My girl.

---

 

Ava: Spencer and I will never be each other’s favorite people. He’s your son. And I meant it when I said that I would keep my issues with him out of our relationship. Esme, though, was never part of that agreement.

Nikolas: As long as Esme is important Spencer, she is part of that agreement.

Ava: Oh, as long as Esme remains a threat to Trina, no, she’s not. But this isn’t about Spencer and Esme. This is about you and me.

Nikolas: You’re right. This is about our marriage and our partnership. And I should have consulted you before inviting Esme to stay here. But when you had a problem with Esme, you ran to Sonny instead of consulting me.

Ava: “Consulting” you? What was there to consult you about? Honestly. You — you were giving that horrid little monster the benefit of the doubt while she was framing Trina for something even her so-called victims know she didn’t do.

Nikolas: So you’re determined to punish me?

Ava: Not without good reason.

Nikolas: And these mysterious plans of yours tonight, did they involve exploring the possibility of divorce?

Ava: No, of course not. That ship sailed weeks ago.

Nikolas: When was this?

Ava: The day you invited Esme into our home.

Nikolas: So you can stand there, you can go on and on…

Ava: On and on?

Nikolas: …About not trusting me, but how am I supposed to trust you when you always have one foot out of the door?

Ava: You want me to stop straddling the threshold, Nikolas? Then stop pushing me away.

Nikolas: You know, at least give me a head’s up. Should I be expecting divorce papers soon?

Ava: Not yet. I decided I couldn’t go through with it.

Nikolas: Why? When we can’t trust each other because of our toxic, manipulative marriage?

Ava: You want to know why?

Nikolas: Yeah. By all means, tell me why the hell you are still here.

Ava: Because I love you.

Nikolas: You love me.

Ava: You got that right.

Nikolas: No, I don’t believe you.

Ava: No. Believe it. Believe it. Believe it.

---

 

Esme: Thanks, Spence. You’re the only one for me, too. I missed this. Feeling so close to you.

Nikolas: I’m sorry that it’s taken us so long to get things back on track. Thank you for letting me take it slow.

Esme: I don’t care how long it takes us to get us back to where we were, just so long as we do.

Nikolas: It’s our second chance. I want to do everything right.

Esme: Hey, you’re not the problem, Spence. When I think of how close Trina came to destroying us —

Nikolas: Don’t think about Trina.

Esme: I can’t help it. That conniving little witch drove a wedge between us. Know what I want? A front-row seat at her trial so I can see her face when they lock her away. I cannot wait for everyone she’s fooled to finally see what a back-stabbing snake she really is.

Nikolas: Stop talking about her like that.

Esme: Why?!

---

 

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Brando: Sasha’s the one who hit Harmony.

Michael: Wh– Sasha? How?

Brando: Some photographer was harassing her at the Metro Court. So she left and he chased after her and she was speeding and — and trying to get away from him, and… then Harmony ran into the middle of the road.

Michael: Oh, my god. How’s Sasha doing?

Brando: She’s devastated, man. It’s traumatizing enough to be in an accident like that, but what she’s really having trouble with is hurting Willow.

Michael: Well, as terrible as all this is, I mean, it’ll help Willow to have some answers.

Brando: Yeah. That’s what Sasha and i are hoping.

Michael: Sasha might not have the whole story, but I got a feeling my mom does.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

---

 

Josslyn: Are you gonna talk to Willow now or later?

Carly: What do you think?

Josslyn: Hmm. Well, if it were me, I’d probably want to know right away, but I understand if you think it’s piling too much on Willow.

Carly: You don’t?

Josslyn: No, I do. But, mom, I mean, there’s never gonna be a good time.

---

 

Esme: Are you still defending Trina?

Spencer: No! For god’s sake, Esme, I do not care about Trina. I care about you.

Esme: Then why?

Spencer: Because all of this anger that you’re holding in for her, it can’t be good for you. Look at you. You’re tied up in knots. You’re scowling. Your forehead’s all scrunched up. [ Chuckles ] I’m serious. All this stress that you’re carrying around, just let it go.

Esme: [ Sighs ] I’ll try. It’s just that I hate that Trina’s getting away with everything.

Spencer: How do you think I feel? But you and Trina getting in each other’s face, that is making it worse.

Esme: So what am I supposed to do? She’s walking around free, blaming me.

Spencer: Esme.

Esme: [ Sighs ]

Spencer: Look at me. Do you trust me?

Esme: Of course.

Spencer: Then trust me when I say this. This is all gonna be over soon. And when it is, you and Trina will never have to see each other ever again.

---

 

Ava: Mm. No, no, no. We can’t do this.

Nikolas: We can.

Ava: No! We can’t. Our problems aren’t gonna go away if we keep distracting ourselves with sex.

Nikolas: This isn’t a diversion. This is you and me expressing our love. We do love each other, right?

Ava: Yeah, we do.

Nikolas: Okay, then what are we doing? Sure. We have problems. We can fix them.

Ava: We can’t — we can’t fix them with sex.

Nikolas: Just tell me what I need to do to make things good between us, and I will do it.

Ava: I don’t know.

Nikolas: Well, then, while we’re figuring it out, let me prove to you that you can trust me.

Ava: Trust is earned. It’s built over time. And if you think that you can fix everything with one or two grand gestures, Nikolas, I’m sorry… you can’t.

Nikolas: [ Sighs ]

---

 

Sasha: Willow, I wish that I could make this all okay. But all I can say is that it was a horrible, senseless accident.

Willow: But what was my mother doing there in the first place? Why was my mom in the woods stumbling into the road?

Carly: I can answer that. Sasha, can I have a minute with Willow? I need to talk to her alone.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Felicia: If only that was possible.

Finn (to Elizabeth): I might be able to help you with the last part.

Austin (to Maxie): If you don’t want to hang out tomorrow night, all you gotta do is say so.

Spinelli: You’ll be the first to know.

Liesl: Sonny Corinthos will feel my wrath.

Nina (to Sonny): Looking for someone?

Carly (to Willow): You’re gonna have to prepare yourself.

Britt (to Michael): We need to find Willow, now.

Proofread by Anita

Gladys: Oh, my God. Is she dead?

Sasha: She’s alive.

Gladys: [ Sighs ]

Sasha: Call an ambulance right now. She just came out of nowhere!

[ Car door closes ]

Felty: Oh, man. Look what you did.

---

Nikolas: Ava, where are you? I thought you’d be home by now. Give me a ring when you get this. Love you.

---

Spencer: I get it. Your girlfriend is not happy with you right now. But if I can ride out Joss and Trina hating me, then you can, too. Please, I need you to do me this one favor.

Esme: What favor is that?

---

[ Door opens ]

Trina: Oh. It’s you.

Rory: Uh, Miss Robinson. You can put that down now.

Trina: I can. I’m just not sure if I should.

---

Portia: I was worried about you. I-I couldn’t reach you all day.

Curtis: Oh, baby, I’m sorry I went radio silent.

Portia: Trina told me that Marshall left town and you might have gone after him. So what happened? Did you find him?

Curtis: I found him. And then I lost him again.

---

Willow: Hey!

Michael: Hey! You made it.

Dante: I did. How’s it going?

Michael: How you doing?

Dante: Good to see you.

Willow: Good to see you.

Dante: Hey, you, too.

Willow: Where’s Sam?

Dante: Uh, what? I’m not enough for you guys?

Willow: Oh, well, normally, yes. But isn’t this supposed to be a double date?

Dante: It is. Uh, something came up. She sends her regrets.

Michael: Everything okay?

Dante: Yeah, I think so. Uh, we didn’t really have time to get into it, but she encouraged me to come, so, uh, I’m sure it’s nothing too serious.

---

[ Monitor beeping ]

Same: Mom. What the hell happened?

Alexis: [ Sighs ] Carly and I barely escaped with our lives. Girls’ night out.

Sam: What is she talking about? Is she okay?

TJ: Yeah, she’s not exaggerating. Alexis and Carly Corinthos were attacked.

Sam: By who?

Alexis: Someone I thought was my friend.

---

Amy: Your vitals are all in the normal range, but the attending wants to monitor you.

Carly: Okay.

Amy: Lie back and try to rest, Mrs. Corinthos.

Carly: Okay. I know you have questions for me, but you guys have got to find Harmony. She’s gonna try and go after Willow and Wiley.

Jordan: Why do you think Harmony could be a danger to her own daughter and grandson?

Carly: Harmony has had some kind of psychotic break. She is desperate to keep the secret that Willow is not her daughter.

---

Felty: How’s this for a headline? “Supermodel speedster slays.”

Sasha: Where’s your decency?! This woman is barely breathing! She needs an ambulance right now!

Gladys: I told you, I don’t know the exact location!

Sasha: Okay. I can’t focus. Just go help Gladys get an ambulance.

Felty: Give me the phone.

Gladys: What?

Felty: Give me the phone. I’ll fix it, whatever. Yeah, we’re on route 32, near Rana Point…

Gladys: How is she?

Sasha: Help me turn her.

Gladys: Well, maybe we shouldn’t move her.

Sasha: This lady is not breathing, okay? She needs CPR right now.

Gladys: Okay.

Sasha: Okay, on three, you’re gonna — you’re gonna turn her over towards me. I’m gonna hold her head, okay?

Gladys: Okay, okay.

Sasha: One, two, three. Oh.

Glady: Oh, oh. [ Sighs ] I saw — I saw a shadow, and I thought it was a deer, but it was a person.

Sasha: [ Gasps ] Oh, my god!

Gladys: It’s Willow’s mom.

Sasha: [ Breathing heavily ]

---

Alexis: I don’t know. She took off on foot. She could be anywhere.

---

Carly: I found a piece of paper in a file, and they were notes from a therapy session, and they mentioned Harmony by name. Something about Harmony feeling guilty about taking a child that wasn’t her own.

Jordan: These were Neil Byrne’s notes?

Carly: Well, yeah, I mean, when I went to the fireplace, because Harmony was burning papers, the heading on the paper said “Dr. Neil Byrne, psychiatrist.” And that’s when Harmony came at me with a needle.

Jordan: This could explain why Brendon Byrne was found dead in the water by the pier.

Carly: Look, all I know is when I woke up in the back of my SUV, I could hear Harmony and Alexis arguing. And Harmony was threatening Alexis. She went after her, I tackled her to the ground, we fought, but the second Harmony heard Alexis get through to 911, she took off.

Jordan: And this was all because of Neil Byrne’s file? What was so compelling that Harmony would commit multiple homicides to keep it quiet?

---

Willow: Well, I’m sorry Sam’s missing out, but I won’t complain, having two handsome dinner companions.

Dante: Are you sure? I kind of — maybe I’ll be, you know, like the third wheel here.

Michael: Oh.

Dante: Don’t you guys want to have a rare night out alone?

Willow: Oh, no. We manage to get out when we can. [ Chuckles ] What have you been up to?

Dante: Just working. I was just at Volonino’s, actually. Sonny was there.

Michael: Oh?

Dante: Yeah. I heard you two had a dust up.

Willow: Excuse me. I’m going to call the nanny and check in on Wiley.

Dante: Oh, that was very tactfully done.

Michael: [ Chuckles ]

Dante: [ Clears throat ]

Michael: So, uh, what did our father have to say?

Dante: Well, I heard his side of the story. I was hoping to hear your side.

Michael: Oh. Look, man, this is, uh [Sighs] This is between dad and me. I think it’s — it’s probably best you stay out of it.

---

Curtis: I am really sorry about today. I was in a negative headspace. Had a confrontation with Marshall, and of course, it didn’t go very well.

Portia: And how is this confrontation any different from the other ones that you’ve had with him?

Curtis: Well, this time I had knowledge. I discovered some secrets that he’s been keeping from me.

Portia: And how did you come across this knowledge?

Curtis: I did some digging.

Portia: [ Scoffs ] And Marshall was upset by the invasion of his privacy.

Curtis: So much so that he, uh, packed his bags and left town.

Portia: Oh, I see. So what exactly do you think upset Marshall more, the fact that you unearthed his secret, or that you used Drew to help you do it?

---

Rory: I didn’t mean to scare you. I noticed you hadn’t locked the door.

Trina: Yeah, I-I meant to. I just — I just got caught up with work.

Rory: Well, you should be more careful. Um, commissioner Ashford sent me, told me to keep watch. She said there’s been some trouble with the press. Although I don’t recommend you pepper-spraying a reporter. Can you put that away now?

Trina: Right, yes. I’m sorry.

[ Both Chuckle ]

Rory: Close call. Look like you have good aim.

Trina: I do. Uh, my dad is an ex-cop.

Rory: Then I’m sure he taught you the importance of handling a weapon safely.

Trina: Oh, trust me. I know.

Rory: [ Chuckles ] Good. I’d hate to have to take you in.

Trina: Like you did with Cam and Spencer? Overreact much?

Rory: You’re still mad that I detained your friends?

Trina: Friend. Cam is my friend.

Rory: And Cassadine isn’t?

---

Spencer: I’m glad we understand one another.

Esme: Who was that?

Spencer: Cameron.

Esme: Cam’s doing you a favor?

Spencer: If he knows what’s good for him. I told him that he needs to watch what he says about you in the future, or things might get physical again.

Esme: Again? You and Cam got into a fight?

Spencer: And dragged down to the PCPD, but now he knows that I’m not going to tolerate anyone badmouthing you.

Esme: You did that for me? I-I mean, Spence, you have to be careful. You cannot get arrested again.

Spencer: There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do for you. I’d better get going.

Esme: Where?

Spencer: To the gallery so I can get started on the many menial tasks that Ava’s assigned me. But if I go after hours, I can avoid Ava and Trina.

Esme: I appreciate that.

Spencer: It always has been us against the world.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone clatters ]

Something on your mind?

---

Nikolas: This was a waste. All that effort, Ava’s not even taking my calls.

[ Table crashes ]

Nikolas: [ Sighs ]

Esme: It was a beautiful table. I — I’m sorry Ava didn’t get a chance to see it, and for my part in ruining your plans.

Nikolas: This isn’t your fault, okay? [ Sighs ]

Esme: Ava isn’t here because she resents the fact that I am.

Nikolas: No, hey, just leave that. I-I-I’ll have somebody clean it.

Esme: [ Sighs ] Ava’s even placed her vow renewal on hold.

Nikolas: No one’s forcing her to make those choices.

Esme: It’s so obvious how you worship your wife. I-I can’t understand how Ava doesn’t appreciate that. I see what kind of partner you are, and…I want that kind of passion and loyalty in my life. You and I, we…

[ Door opens ]

Esme: …Don’t deserve to be stuck in a house without the kind of love we so desperately need.

Laura: Then I come bearing glad tidings. Nobody’s stuck, Esme. You don’t have to hide out at Spoon Island anymore.

---

Trina: I asked you not to arrest Cam, if you recall. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have work to do. I’ll lock up when you go.

Rory: I wasn’t trying to be a jerk. Commissioner Ashford is really pushing for everything to be by the book.

Trina: Nothing wrong with being disciplined. I can relate.

Rory: And so you know, both guys got off with a warning.

Trina: I suppose you’re just doing your job. Possibly taking it a little too seriously.

Rory: [ Chuckles ] Well, uh, since you are cutting me some slack, I wouldn’t turn down something to drink while I keep watch from my patrol car.

Trina: Officer invisible did give me a soda once. I guess I can return the favor.

Rory: [ Chuckles ] It’s actually Cabrera, but you can call me Rory if you ever need to call me.

---

Curtis: Drew told you about our plan?

Portia: He told me the basics. That Drew set up an interview so that Marshall would agree to a background check.

Curtis: Yeah, Marshall was pissed by all the subterfuge. He was even more upset that I defied his wishes to continue searching.

Portia: Then why did you do it?

Curtis: I did it for you and Trina and Aunt Stella and TJ, and for everyone that I love. We had to find out what Marshall was hiding. And I don’t regret that I kept at it, because what I found out was eye-popping. The man was never in a witness protection program. There was no link to no organized crime. In fact, his arrest was because of a — a protest rally decades ago.

Portia: I don’t understand why he would hide that.

Curtis: I’m guessing pride, that, you know — embarrassed that he never did jail time, you know. Instead, he was sent to a mental institution. Baby, I was gonna tell you. I just wanted to confront the man first.

Portia: And, um, well, you don’t owe me — owe me that information. But I am wondering why you didn’t share with me how you acquired it. Subterfuge, digging — my perspective could have helped you with this.

Curtis: Yeah.

Portia: And I thought — I thought that we were in this together. But you didn’t trust me? You didn’t trust me with any of it?

---

Michael: I just — I don’t recognize our father anymore. I mean, do you?

Dante: Yeah. Yeah, of course I do. I just — you know, he’s going through some changes.

Michael: Yeah, changes that directly affect my mother and my son. I mean, my mom can take care of herself, but Wiley can’t. So it means I have to put my relationship with Sonny behind me.

Dante: For how long?

Willow: Wiley’s just fine.

Dante: Oh, good.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Dante: That’s me. And now it’s my turn to be excused. I got a work call. Excuse me.

Willow: Everything okay?

Michael: Well, Dante didn’t try and talk me out of my position, so there’s that.

Willow: [ Sighs ] Relationships with parents are tricky. I still need to check in with my mom about her drinking last night. That is not like her.

Dante: Uh, hey, you two. I just got called to the scene of an accident. I got to jet.

Willow: Eventful night.

Dante: Yeah, it appears so. Hey, I just want to say, whatever happens with you and Sonny, we’re brothers always, okay?

Michael: Yeah, always.

Dante: Rain check on the dinner?

Michael: Sounds good, man. Next time bring Sam, okay?

Dante: Of course. No more third wheel for you guys.

[ All Laugh ]

---

Sam: You couldn’t have known how deep Harmony’s lies went, or what she was actually capable of.

Alexis: I didn’t. Not even close.

[ Monitor beeping ]

Alexis: [ Sighs ] She killed Neil, and then she became my friend and — and tried to kill me!

Carly: Harmony stole a baby. I mean, that is pretty shocking. But is it sufficient motive to kill you, Alexis, Neil Byrne, and his brother? Was it all to avoid going back to prison, or is there more to the story?

Harmony: Nina and I are connected through Wiley.

Carly: I know, but I have a feeling there’s something more to it. When you came to ask for a job at the metro court, you said you owed Nina.

Harmony: I misspoke.

Carly: Not sure.

Jordan: Try me.

Carly: I’m — [ Scoffs ] Well, I mean, I think Brendon knew that Harmony killed his brother.

Jordan: Then why not come to the police, especially when he had the damning evidence in her file?

Carly: Uh, you know, apparently — um, a-apparently, he was trying to shake her down.

Jordan: Okay. Then why would Harmony go to such extreme lengths? And what was in that file? Carly?

Carly: Hm?

Jordan: What else do you know?

---

Sasha: 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22…

Gladys: If she dies, are we gonna get in trouble?

Sasha: …25, 26, 27, 28, 29…

Gladys: Willow could sue —

Sasha: Gladys, this isn’t helping! 29, 30 —

Harmony: [ Gasps ]

Sasha: Oh, Harmony. She’s back, she’s back.

Gladys: Oh!

Sasha: Okay, Harmony, hold on. Help is coming.

Gladys: Oh!

Sasha: Help is coming.

Gladys: You did it. You brought her back.

[ Harmony breathing wheezily ]

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

Felty: Oh, that’s so good, Sasha. Look at me, look at me, look at me. Mm-hmm.

---

Jordan: Did Harmony tell you anything? Any indication of why she would murder two people and try to kill two more?

Carly: I don’t know what you want me to say, Jordan. What I do know is that Willow is going to be devastated, and I am worried about her safety. Michael and Wiley, too, which is why I have got to let them know what’s going on.

Jordan: It’s being handled. Everyone has to remain calm, including you. So sit tight. Got it?

Carly: Mm.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Jordan: Commissioner Ashford.

Carly: Yeah, I bet I sit tight.

Sam: Mom, are you sure you don’t need any more medical attention?

Alexis: You heard TJ. No concussion. I’m fine, at least physically.

Sam: I’m so sorry she did this to you. You let that woman into your home.

Alexis: I’m realizing Harmony was the cause of not only one bad night, but many.

---

[ Sirens wailing, horn honking ]

Paramedic: Dude, seriously, what are you doing?

Felty: Sorry. Okay. There’s two ways this thing plays out. I sell these pictures with the story that The Face of Deception is the heroine who saved the day, or you stand in my way and the story is you caused this tragedy.

[ Police radio beeps ]

Gladys: Sell the heroic pictures.

Sasha: No, Gladys!

Gladys: He’s gonna sell something. And the bad press will make Deception’s stock go down. Is that what you want?

Felty: Listen to the lady. It benefits us both. And if we’re gonna do that, I need something of mine returned. I think we both know what that is.

Paramedic: Nice job keeping her alive.

Felty: Yeah. Isn’t she great?

[ Siren wailing ]

Felty: My memory card?

Sasha: I don’t think so.

Felty: Okay, then, “The Face of Collision” it is.

Sasha: Why don’t you just leave me alone?!

Felty: And the whole world will see that you’re flaming out after you lost your kid. Smile for the camera.

Sasha: You bastard! No!

Gladys: Sasha, no.

Dante: Hey, hey, stop! Stop, stop! That’s enough, that’s enough.

---

Portia: I know you. I know you wouldn’t have got Drew involved unless you had serious concerns. But I wish you would have trusted me to understand that.

Curtis: Honey, I do trust you, okay? But ever since, you know… we moved in together, I’ve been concerned about Marshall’s past showing up on our doorstep. And leaving Trina at the house with him the night Aunt Stella had a panic attack, that didn’t help matters.

Portia: Trina seemed perfectly safe with Marshall, though.

Curtis: I’m not saying Marshall’s the danger, but I’m worried about his past. I just — I had to get answers.

Portia: So how’d you go about it? Didn’t Marshall’s background check come back clean?

Curtis: Yeah, Marshall had a sealed arrest record. He told me that himself.

Portia: And I know he didn’t tell you the contents of that record. So how’d you go about finding out?

---

Laura: What happened here?

Nikolas: It’s a momentary lapse. What’s this news of yours?

Laura: I had a conversation with Sonny. He assured me that Esme has nothing to fear from him. He gave me his word, and his word is his bond. So we can all resume our normal lives. Perhaps you can move out now, Esme.

Nikolas: Well, let’s not be too hasty.

---

Trina: Sorry. This is all we have. Do you like that piece?

Rory: Uh, I’m not sure. I don’t know anything about art. I’ve walked past the chuck museum a thousand times and never stepped foot inside.

Trina: Sad. You’re definitely missing out.

Rory: I really like the front steps. It’s a great place to eat my lunch.

Trina: Trust me, what’s inside is a million times better.

Rory: Even if I have no idea what I’m looking at?

Trina: [ Chuckles ] See, the thing about art is that it’s subjective. How does this painting make you feel?

Rory: Uh…hopeful?

Trina: Why hopeful?

Rory: [ Chuckles ] Well, you’re putting me on the spot here. Um, something about that mixture of dark and light.

Trina: Yeah. I can see that.

Spencer: That’s called contrast. [ Clears throat ] But you should ask Trina to educate you about Chiaroscuro, the treatment of light and shade.

Trina: You’re the expert on all things shady. Why are you here?

---

Portia: I know a former investigator has all kinds of sources, and I’m not asking you to reveal them, but to get access to a sealed police record…

Curtis: I was right. You don’t approve.

Portia: You’re not understanding me. I’m not judging you, I’m concerned.

Curtis: For Marshall or my relationship with him?

Portia: Of course I hope that Marshall is okay. And I am sensitive to his desire to want to keep his mental-health issues private. And as far as your father-and-son relationship, I am with you. I support whatever you want.

Curtis: Then why are you upset?

Portia: I’m upset because I don’t want to lose you, Curtis.

---

Rory: Well, if it isn’t the mayor’s grandson. What brings you here?

Spencer: Work. I’m here to start my restitution. And I figured that since Trina is no longer supervising me, I could make my own hours.

Rory: I bet. You seem to like making your own rules.

Spencer: If now’s a bad time, I can leave.

Trina: No, I’ll go. I just need to finish up.

Rory: Well, while the two of you decide, I’ll be in the car. Thanks again for the water.

Spencer: Why’re you hanging out with him?

Trina: Not that it’s any of your business, but Commissioner Ashford assigned him to me as my protection.

Spencer: Like a bodyguard? That guy?

Trina: Why did Rory make that comment about you being the mayor’s grandson?

Spencer: “Rory”? You’re on a first-name basis now?

Trina: You used your grandmother’s position to avoid charges, didn’t you?

Spencer: I may have asked him if he knew who I was. But he would have found out anyway.

Trina: You don’t think twice, do you? You just throw money or influence or even both and expect things to go your way. I thought you would grow out of that. But I was wrong all along. You are still the same entitled brat that I had the bad luck of meeting months ago.

---

Nikolas: Spencer and Esme can’t support themselves.

Esme: I still don’t have access to my trust fund, and Spence isn’t making any money at the gallery.

Laura: But I’m sure he could go back to work at Kelly’s.

Esme: Spence and Cam had a, um, disagreement.

Laura: I am aware of that. I was Spencer’s first call from jail.

Esme: I should probably go talk to Spence. We wouldn’t want to trespass on anyone’s kindness for too long. I’ll go tell him the good news.

Laura: Okay!

Esme: Thank you, Laura.

Laura: Oh, you’re so welcome.

Nikolas: I appreciate you coming here to deliver the news personally.

Laura: And not a minute too soon, it seems.

---

Dante: Okay, what the hell happened here? W-what’s going on?

Felty: I’m bleeding. She’s insane.

Sasha: I’m insane?! You bloodsucker!

Gladys: Shh! Okay, okay, not another word without an attorney present. I’m gonna call Brando. She’s not saying another word, so save your breath.

[ Police radio chatter ]

Felty: Uh, I need medical attention.

Dante: Then drive yourself to G.H. And get medical attention. And don’t leave there till I take your statement.

Felty: Oh, you’re gonna get my statement all right.

Dante: Good. Get out of here.

Sasha: [ Breathing heavily ]

Dante: Are you okay?

Sasha: No. How’s Harmony?

Dante: It’s too soon to tell. What happened here?

[ Vehicle door opens, closes ]

Sasha: That horrible man was chasing us.

[ Engine starts ]

Dante: Okay, what was — was he trying to get photos?

[ Vehicle departs ]

Sasha: I was trying to get away. I was driving and —

Dante: Okay, stop. Sasha, you should know you do have a right to counsel, okay? But I need to know what happened tonight with Harmony miller. How did she get hurt?

Sasha: She just ran out into the road right in front of my car. I-I couldn’t swerve. Oh, my god, Dante, what if she doesn’t make it? [ Sniffles ]

Gladys: That’s enough for now. Can’t you see she’s upset?

Dante: Okay. Okay. You can go, but you got to get her to G.H. Have her checked out, she could be in shock. In the morning, I’m gonna need you both to come to the station and make a statement, okay?

Gladys: Well, let’s — let’s go, sweetheart.

---

Michael: Some date night, huh?

Willow: Started off weird. Sam couldn’t make it, and Dante got called away. It’s not your fault.

Michael: Well, thanks. I’m sorry, kind of just been in a funk since Dante brought up my dad.

Willow: Cutting a parent out of your life is not easy.

Michael: [ Sighs ]

Willow: But it doesn’t have to be forever. Look at me and my mom.

Michael: You know what? Enough gloomy talk. Like Dante said, this is a rare night out, so let’s make the best of it.

Willow: Do you have anything in particular in mind?

Michael: I got a few things in mind.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Michael: Oh. [ Sighs ] Of course.

Willow: [ Chuckles ]

[ Ringing continues ]

Michael: Hold that thought. It’s my mom. Hey.

Carly: Michael, is Willow with you?

Michael: Uh, yeah. We just sat down to dinner. Everything okay?

Carly: Oh. No, no, it’s not okay. And this isn’t about Wiley, but I need you and Willow to come to the emergency room at G.H. Right now. And I will tell you everything when you get here.

Michael: Okay. Yeah, we’re on our way.

Willow: What is it?

---

Carly: Alexis! Hey, are you okay?

Alexis: I’m fine, thanks to you.

Carly: Oh.

Alexis: You saved my life. What about you?

Carly: I’m okay, a-and thank you. I mean, if you didn’t show up when you did…

Alexis: Well…

Sam: Hey, so Spinelli’s trying to get a location on Harmony’s phone.

Alexis: Well, she sure as hell won’t be calling me. My reporter with the contact at PCPD says there isn’t any info yet, but hopefully they’ll find Harmony and this will all be over soon.

Amy: Ms. Davis, your release papers are done. Ms. Corinthos, we’re working on yours.

[ Door opens, gurney rattles ]

Paramedic: We have a female involved in MVA. She was in full arrest on scene. A bystander performed CPR and patient achieved ROSC. Patient has multiple injuries and probable head trauma.

Amy: Oh, my god. That’s Willow’s mother.

TJ: Get her to cubicle 1. We need radiology down here, stat, a DIC panel, CBC, CMP, blood gases, and two units of O neg.

---

Sasha: [ Crying, breathing heavily ]

Gladys: Dante told me to have you checked out at G.H., And I agree. Brando’s very worried about you, honey.

Sasha: [ Sniffles ] Just say it, Gladys!

Gladys: Hey, Harmony came out of nowhere. There’s no way you could have avoided her. But the fact is, you were speeding. What is on that memory card that’s got you so upset?

Paparazzo Felty: Is that on the menu?

Sasha: [ Gasps ]

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

Sasha: Ugh! I’m just so sick of being treated like some animal in an exhibit! Ever since I lost Liam, my grief has been judged and analyzed and exploited! And I-I just can’t take it anymore! [ Sobs ]

Gladys: I get it, I get it. I get it, but you don’t have to worry. The memory card is safe in my purse. [ Mouths ] It’s okay.

Sasha: What? Thank you, Gladys. Can I have it?

Gladys: Of course, of course. B-but let’s get you to the hospital first. Okay?

Sasha: Okay.

Gladys: All right.

Sasha: I hope Willow is there. I owe her an explanation.

---

Alexis: Jordan, what did you find out? Do you know what happened to Harmony Miller?

Jordan: Apparently, she was struck in a single vehicle collision.

Sam: Wait, Harmony was able to commandeer a getaway car and crashed?

Jordan: Not exactly.

Willow: Wait. What? This is about my mom? W-where is she? What happened?

Jordan: Willow, let’s have a seat.

Willow: N-no, tell me what’s going on. Is my mother okay?

Jordan: Your mother was struck by a car earlier tonight.

Willow: I want to see her.

Jordan: They’re trying to stabilize her right now.

Willow: Oh, my God.

Michael: Come on.

Carly: Willow… Willow, they’re doing everything they can for your mom.

Willow: Uh, I-I-I don’t understand. Did my mom drive off the road? W-what?

Michael: Mom, is this why you wanted us here? H-how did you find out about this, and what — what happened to your face?

Carly: We’ll talk about it later.

Willow: Wait.

Carly: Okay?

Willow: Wait a minute, Carly. Do you know what’s happening here?

---

Curtis: I’m not going nowhere.

Portia: But you can’t promise me that. Not if you’re using questionable methods. You’re keeping me at bay. Honey, I lived through this. I lived through this whole thing with Taggert. I’m not doing it again.

Curtis: I did what I did to protect what we have.

Portia: Did what exactly? There’s no way you got that sealed record from a legitimate source, I know it.

Curtis: I do not want to jeopardize what we’re building.

Portia: Well, I’m glad to hear it. And I know that your past is important to you, but I need you to promise me that from this point forward, you’re gonna put our future first.

---

Laura: Seems like I walked in on sort of, um… a close moment between you and Esme.

Nikolas: I was upset because Ava wasn’t available for a surprise dinner that I arranged. I didn’t realize that she had other plans. Esme was blaming herself, and I was consoling her.

Laura: Seems to me you should be consoling your wife.

Nikolas: [ Sighs ] Well, now that Esme won’t be around all the time, hopefully things will improve. [ Sighs ]

Laura: I’m a little worried about Spencer. He’s been fighting with his friends. He’s becoming increasingly more isolated. I mean, soon it’ll just be Esme and Victor.

Nikolas: And me. We’re still growing closer.

Laura: Get Esme out of the house.

Nikolas: [ Sighs ]

Laura: She is the common denominator in all of these strained relationships.

Nikolas: Esme’s not perfect. But you’re giving her too much power.

Laura: She is manipulative. Can you see that? She sows chaos.

Nikolas: Bottom line, Esme wants to be loved and needed. Once she and Spencer patch things up, things will get back on track. Spencer will rebuild his life. Ava and I will rebuild ours. And once that finally happens, we’ll come together as a family. [ Sighs ]

Laura: When did you become the optimist?

Nikolas: Am I wrong to hope for a positive outcome?

Laura: No, not wrong to — not necessarily. I think you’re being a little naive. There is a scorpion under your roof. Get rid of her before she poisons all of you.

---

Spencer: You cannot blame me for using my connections. Another arrest on my record could send me back to prison. Aren’t you doing all that you can to keep from being incarcerated?

Trina: I’m innocent. Not that you believe me.

Spencer: Do you really regret meeting me?

Trina: How self-absorbed can you get? I am facing trial and a Title IX investigation that can give me kicked out of school. Out of all the things I stand to lose, you’re the least important.

Spencer: I know that I hurt you, Trina, but don’t try to hurt me, no matter how much I deserve it. It’s just not your style.

Trina: Maybe then you don’t know me after all. I was certainly wrong thinking I knew you.

Spencer: You do know me. And you believed in me, at least you did.

Trina: [ Scoffs ] Oh, please [Scoffs] You’re the only person that would try to make me feel guilty for — for your sick, wack friendship.

Spencer: That’s not what this is.

Trina: Yes, it is. You’re playing all the hits, and I’m not listening. You abandoned me when I needed you the most. If you want to work nights, I’ll work days.

Spencer: No, don’t — don’t interrupt your schedule. I just needed to get away from the house tonight.

Trina: Issues with you dad?

Spencer: Actually, he and I are on better terms than we’ve been in a long time.

Trina: Then what are you running from? Your beloved Esme?

---

Curtis: There’s nothing more important than our future together.

Portia: And what about Marshall? Will you look for him?

Curtis: I mean, he disappeared successfully for decades. I’m beginning to think he doesn’t want to be found.

Portia: Well, nobody knew to look for him then, but now they do. I get the feeling that family means everything to Marshall.

Curtis: Well, then, he and I have that in common. Because you and Trina, you’re family, too. I know she’s not my daughter, but I care about her. I hope you will trust that I will always do what’s best for both of you.

Portia: I do.

Curtis: Because ethics and integrity, I know, mean a lot to both of us. So going forward… …you’re never gonna have to worry about that.

---

Nikolas: Nothing is more important to me than Ava and Spencer, and I believe that my family will be intact once all the dust settles.

Laura: Okay. I admire your confidence and your resolve. I just hope you know what you’re doing.

---

Spencer: Believe it or not, I miss going to Kelly’s. I used to feel useful there. I mean, I hated that job at first, but I started to appreciate how feeling productive improved my state of mind.

Trina: Then go back. Especially if you’re taking nights here.

Spencer: You and Joss don’t want Cam to rehire me.

Trina: Joss, maybe. She’s just protecting me. I don’t mind. I get how that can be important to you.

Spencer: You always do.

Trina: But not how Esme gets you, right? I’ll leave your to-do list so that you can run home to your phony, twisted witch you consider the love of your life.

Spencer: Esme is anything but that.

---

Dante: All righty. Thank you for your statement.

Felty: Whoa, is that it? What about my memory card? First, the mother-in-law stole it from me, and then Sasha Gilmore attacked me when I asked for it back.

Dante: Yeah, she attacked you. That looks real life-threatening, huh?

Felty: Mm-hmm.

Dante: Do you want to press charges, Mr. Felty?

Felty: Yeah. Yeah, that’ll show her.

Dante: That’s cool. That’s your right.

Felty: Mm-hmm.

Dante: It’s also Ms. Gilmore’s right to counter charge for assault and harassment. Want to do that?

Felty: Forget it.

Dante: That’s what I thought. Oh, and since we’re probably also looking at an investigation into illegal vehicular pursuit, do me a favor and don’t go anywhere.

Felty: [ Scoffs ] Thanks. For nothing. [ Sighs ] Hey, Smoltzy. You’re gonna want to hit an ATM ’cause what I got, you’re gonna want. [ Laughs ]

---

Willow: Were you two with my mom?

Carly: Not at the time of the accident.

Alexis: Before. At rana point. Yeah.

Willow: But why?

[ Hospital bed rolling ]

Willow: Oh, my god, mom. Dr. Ashford, can I talk to her?

TJ: No time. Your mom’s injuries are critical. I will bring you news as soon as I have some. We need to get her to the O.R. Now.

Willow: Who could have done this to my mom?

On the next “General Hospital” —

Brando (to Sasha): What reason did the photographer have for chasing you?

Willow (to Michael): I will never forgive myself for pushing her away.

Spencer: You’re the one I have my eyes on.

Trina: You made the choice. Deal with it.

Josslyn (to Carly): What were you doing in the ER?

Esme: Will finally see though your good girl act.

Ava (to Nikolas): Tell me you’re not letting her stay.

Finn: Oh, my goodness. You’re so fast. You’re the fastest kid ever. You got to wait up for your dad.

Violet: Ooh, so many colors!

Finn: Mm. Pick whatever you want, sweetheart.

Violet: Have you ever gotten your nails done, daddy?

Finn: Me? [ Laughs ] No. N-nope.

Violet: You should get your nails done, too.

Finn: [ Laughs ] Yeah.

Ava: First time for everything.

[ Gloves striking bag ]

Sonny: Whoever he is, you must hate him a lot.

[ Gloves striking bag ]

---

Portia: N’neka. N’neka, hi. Um, is Curtis around?

N’neka: [ Sighs ] Sorry, Dr. Robinson. He texted me that he’d be coming in late. Do you want to leave a message for him?

Portia: Oh, no, no. I’ve been leaving messages. I just haven’t heard back from him.

Drew: Join the club. Curtis hasn’t been answering my messages, either.

---

[ Gloves striking bag ]

Sonny: Damn. Love’s stronger than hate. Anybody I know? Something wrong, Dante?

Dante: Uh… I just got a text from Jordan. I’m needed at G.H.

Sonny: Trouble?

Dante: I don’t know yet.

Sonny: Oh.

Dante: I’ll let you know.

Sonny: Okay.

Curtis: Must be frustrating. A son with a badge, won’t share.

Sonny: Me and Dante know where we stand. Like, kind of like maybe you and your father, right?

[ Cellphone rings ]

Brando: Nina?

Nina: Brando. Listen, I know this is last minute, but I was wondering if you could swing by my apartment.

Brando: Is something wrong?

Nina: I just — I just met with Sasha, and I could be overreacting. I probably am. But she seemed kind of fragile.

Brando: Yeah, I’m on the way.

Curtis: [ Sighs ] Looks like you might need those more than me.

---

Lucy: Ladies. To us. And to the success of the IPO. Deception would not be where it is today without all your hard work and passion. Cheers.

Group: Cheers. Cheers.

[ Laughter ]

Gladys: Hey, uh, since I’m included in the “hard work” and “passion” speech, why haven’t I been given a stock share?

Lucy: Mm! Gladys, you got a nice little raise.

Gladys: Peanuts.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ] Go mooch off your rich daughter-in-law.

Lucy; [ Clears throat ] Excuse me. Uh, hey, what are you gonna do with all your millions?

Maxie: Oh, I’m gonna put a ton of it away for my kids’ education.

Brook Lynn: Expecting a call?

Maxie: Austin was supposed to stop by, but that was, like, an hour ago.

Glady: -[ Laughs ]

Sasha: -Hey!

Glady: Are you shy all of a sudden? What kept you so long? We can’t have a party without the Face of Deception.

Sasha: Well, I am here now, so let’s get this party started, huh?

[ Women cheer ] -Yeah! -Yeah!

---

Alexis: This is how you show your love for Willow? By killing me and Carly?

Harmony: I didn’t want it this way, Alexis!

Alexis: Where does it end, Harmony? First Neil. Then his brother. Now me and Carly. How many people have to die to maintain the lie that Willow is your daughter?

Harmony: As many as it takes.

---

Sonny: Oh, you know what? I just finished my workout. I don’t need to climb back in the ring to show you how it’s done.

Curtis: [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: Especially after the great night that I had at your club.

Curtis: If you’re talking about the poker game, Ms. Wu runs the games. I just give her access to the back room.

Sonny: Must be a profitable arrangement.

Curtis: Well, you would know, since you and Ms. Wu partnered up.

Sonny: Oh, Ms. Wu, she’s not my partner. She’s my business associate. Just like you. I mean, treat her as such, and everybody walks away happy at the end of the evening.

Curtis: Oh, I don’t know. Some leave richer, some poorer.

Sonny: Well, life’s a gamble. And there’s nothing riskier than family. You should know about that.

Curtis: That’s the second time you’ve alluded to my father. Why the sudden interest?

---

Drew: Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Portia: That Curtis’ radio silence has something to do with Marshall?

Drew: So, what do you know, like, specifically?

Portia: Well, Trina told me that she ran into Marshall on his way out of town, and he said that he was no longer interested in putting down roots in Port Charles anymore.

Drew: Or with his family.

Portia: And you don’t seem surprised by that information. Drew, you know why Marshall left town. Don’t you?

---

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Dante: How’s the patient?

Rory: He’s messed up pretty bad.

Dante: Mm-hmm. Tj. What’s going on? Is he conscious? Is he saying anything?

TJ: Well, the patient is awake, but he’s not making much sense.

Dante: Mm. You know what? Officer Cabrera, I got this. Thank you. I need to see him.

TJ: Yeah.

[ Monitor beeping ]

TJ: The patient’s name is — I already know the patient’s name.

Dante: Eric and I, we go way back.

---

Nina: Hey. Come on in. Thank you for coming over.

Brando: Of course.

Nina: Did I ever thank you for helping Sonny overcome the men who tried to rob us?

Brando: Ah, wrong place, right time.

Nina: Yeah. Well, most people, they run from trouble. But you ran right into it kind of deliberately.

Brando: Yeah. Okay, so you didn’t really call me over here to thank me or to rehash what happened at charlie’s. This is about Sasha, so…

Nina: But the two are kind of connected, Brando. Your courage put you right in the line of fire. And that really frightened Sasha.

Brando: Okay, well, I mean, Sasha knows that was a one-off. I have made it a point of keeping my distance from Sonny, so…

Nina: And yet, Sonny’s world still managed to find you. I know that you know this, but, Brando, you have to take this seriously. After losing Liam, she is terrified of losing you, too.

---

Sasha: Who wants seconds? Next round’s on me.

Lucy: Oh, well, look at you, already spending your newfound wealth. Does Mr. Gilmore have a say?

Sasha: My husband is Mr. Brando Corbin, Lucy. He’s a very special person with his own identity.

Gladys: You tell ’em, honey. It never pays to underestimate the Corbins.

Lucy: I’m teasing. Okay. Another toast. To me. For being so smart to bring you all together to make Deception the jewel in the cosmetic crown. Hear, hear.

[ Women ] -Cheers. -Cheers. -Cheers.

Lucy: Oh, hey! I actually spoke with Brando this morning, and I am hot on the trail of finding you the perfect house.

Maxie: If you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go wash up.

Brook Lynn: And I’ll join you. Excuse me.

Maxie: Okay.

Lucy: Okay. Listen. I really do believe that real estate is an important, important investment. But you can’t drive it and you can’t wear it. So, tell me, what do you want to just splurge on to celebrate?

Gladys: I vote for a hot pink convertible.

Lucy: [ Sighs ]

---

Brook Lynn: Is it just me, or is Sasha only pretending to enjoy herself?

Maxie: It’s not just you.

Brook Lynn: And you. You’re not even pretending. Is Austin ghosting you?

Maxie: Why would you say something like that?

Brook Lynn: Just, if I’m wrong, tell me.

Maxie: You’re wrong.

Brook Lynn: But some guys can’t handle when the woman they’re seeing can buy and sell them.

Gladys: So, lucy, what do you intend to do with your millions?

Lucy: I don’t know. I haven’t figured it out quite yet.

Sasha: Maybe a getaway in Maui?

Waiter: The face of deception is living it up with the top brass in the Metro Court gardens. No. They’re just getting started.

[ Laughter ]

---

[ Grunts ]

Harmony: I just wanted to be your friend, Alexis!

Alexis: Then let me go!

Harmony: I can’t! I’m not a murderer. It’s all of you. It was you. You all made me do it.

[ Grunts ]

Alexis: Someone else made you stick a needle in Neil’s arm? Or push his brother to his death? None of that was your fault or your doing?

Harmony: None of it. You’re wrong, Harmony. Or should I say Lorraine?

[ Screaming ]

Carly: Back the hell off!

---

Ava: Is this your first time getting your nails done?

Violet: Yes.

Ava: [ Chuckles ]

Violet: Ooh, so pretty. I want that color.

Finn: Yeah?

Ava: Oh, do you like this? Oh, I’m glad. Thank you. ‘Cause I was a little worried about it. You know, you could probably get a design in this color if you like.

Violet: Daddy, can I have a design?

Finn: Hmm?

Ava: It costs a little extra, dad. Sorry.

Finn: Whatever you want, sweetheart. You want to go pick out a design?

Violet: Yeah.

Finn: Come on. Here you go.

Nail Tech: Come on, sweetheart. Let’s pick something out.

Finn: Okay.

Ava: My little girl, Avery, she likes getting little unicorns or rainbows and… never too soon to experience the finer things.

Finn: Mm. Yeah.

Ava: [ Laughs ]

Finn: Violet was named “class helper of the week,” so this is sort of her special treat.

Ava: Oh. I bet it’s a treat for you, too.

Finn: Mm.

Ava: If you’re anything like me, there’s nothing more precious than time with your little girl.

---

Sonny: Your father intrigues me because the first time I met him, he acted like he didn’t like me, like we traded punches in a past life.

Curtis: Maybe you did.

Sonny: Well, that’s Marshall’s problem.

Curtis: You know, my dad, he has no use for people in your chosen profession, but since you’re interested, Sonny, why did you tell me no when I asked for your help to look into his past?

Sonny: The first time I met Marshall was when he came to Port Charles. But let me tell you something. Sometimes the past should be left where it belongs — in the past.

---

Drew: Portia, I really think that you should speak to Curtis about this.

Portia: And I certainly would if he would return my messages. Or yours. [ Scoffs ] I can only assume that something very serious is going on here. And I get the sense that you know more than what you’re telling me.

Drew: Mm…

Portia: Drew, I’m not asking you to betray a confidence, but if Curtis is hurting, I want to be there. I want — I want to help him. I-I need to.

Drew: I know how much Curtis means to you. I really do. And I know how much you mean to Curtis, so… me keeping silent, that’s not gonna help anybody. I’ll just take the hit from Curtis if it comes to that, I guess.

Portia: Then you do know why Marshall left town?

Drew: Yeah. I helped drive him away.

---

Maxie: And you’re wrong about Austin. Money means nothing to him. When I first met him, he was hiking in the woods, munching on granola bars.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, until he moved to Port Charles and he started to maneuver for a slice of the Quartermaine pie.

Maxie: No, he didn’t want anything to do with the Quartermaine millions. He just wanted respect for his father. He even turned down that offer your family made to buy him out.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, because he was holding out for voting stock, which, by the way, has more value.

Maxie: Okay, Brook Lynn, what happened to giving Austin a chance? For my sake?

Brook Lynn: Okay, you’re right. I’m just speaking from my own experience. Most guys that I meet are either threatened by my trust fund or want to help me spend it. Look, I hope for your sake that I’m wrong and that nature boy is the exception.

Austin: I am so sorry. I had the world’s most difficult patient, and then I got stuck in traffic. And I should have — you look amazing.

Maxie: Thank you.

Austin: Hi. Everything okay?

---

Waiter: They’re over there.

Sasha: Thanks for suggesting this.

Gladys: Especially since the tab is on Deception.

Sasha: I really needed a chance to unwind.

Lucy: Mm, come on. I think we all did. But I have to tell you, tomorrow is another grueling day. We have to meet with prospective buyers. And then you have a bunch of interviews with social media and for print. And then I did set up a couple of wine-and-dines for our distributors with you.

Sasha: [ Sighs ] Being the face of deception is a 24-hour gig.

Gladys: [ Laughs ] You make it sound like a bad thing. You’re gorgeous, successful, a multimillionaire. You were born for this.

Photographer: Smile, Sasha. Let’s see that Face of Deception.

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

---

Brando: Sasha knows she isn’t going to lose me. I’ve made sure of that.

Nina: Yeah, well, you can plan all you want in your life, but you know how life is. It’s unpredictable. What did you say, Brando? You said, uh, “wrong place, right time.” Well, sometimes it’s wrong place, wrong time.

Brando: Okay, I get it, Nina. I do. Bad things happen. Things that we can’t plan for. But, look, Sasha doesn’t have to worry about me taking any stupid risks or being in the line of fire. I’m not in active service anymore. I’m not a cop. And I’m definitely not involved in any aspect of Sonny’s business. I just fix cars.

Nina: Yeah. You and Sasha, you experienced a traumatic loss. Your recovery may not be the same as Sasha’s.

Brando: I know.

Nina: When you have that kind of loss, you’re frightened into thinking that it is gonna happen again any time. And you’re afraid to invest. And you don’t trust your own happiness because you know that that can be snatched away quickly. I k-know the, um… unbearable pain of losing a child. And… that’s a kind of emptiness that never really goes away.

---

Carly: What the hell are you doing?!

Harmony: I won’t let you take Willow and Wiley away from me! Alexis! No! Please! No!

Carly: Harmony, stop!

Harmony: Alexis! No! No! Please! Alexis!

---

Curtis: If I didn’t know better, I’d think you were deliberately keeping something from me.

Sonny: You and I haven’t had much — any problems. But I know how much Nina values your friendship.

Curtis: Yeah, Nina’s great.

Sonny: I agree with that. And I just want you to know that I’m not here to muscle in on your club.

Curtis: You and Selina Wu — business partners? Really?

Sonny: Yeah. And I hope everything works out with you and your dad.

Curtis: Well, you might be a little too late. Marshall’s already left town.

---

Drew: Curtis wanted to find out what Marshall was up to all those years he pretended to be dead.

Portia: Yes. And I know that you offered to help him. So what did you do? Did you hire a private investigator? Did you tap Marshall’s phone, go through the garbage? What?

Drew: I offered him a job at Aurora.

Portia: That’s it? And Curtis knows about this?

Drew: Mm-hmm. You apply for a job, what’s the first thing H.R. Does?

Portia: Run a background check.

Drew: Yeah. Long story short, we actually came up empty, but Marshall found out about it, and he — you know, he felt used.

Portia: Still, still, okay… but do you think that would be enough to drive Marshall away?

Drew: Maybe. Or maybe Curtis discovered something else and confronted Marshall about it?

Portia: Any idea what that “something else” is?

Drew: Look, all I know is that Curtis was trying to protect you and Trina from any trouble that might have been following Marshall around. So, please, try not to judge him too harshly for going behind his father’s back.

Portia: Even if it costs Curtis his father?

---

Dante: You remember me? I’m the cop who busted you for armed robbery at Charlie’s Pub. Where’s your partner? Is he worse off than you are? You know, I notice you don’t feel like talking very much. I’ll make it real simple for you, okay? Who did this to you?

---

Photographer Felty: Smile, Sasha. Let’s see that beautiful Face of Deception.

Gladys: Hey, hey, hey, hey! Stop!

Felty: Oh, come on.

Sasha: Stop it!

Lucy: Go!

Female: Who let you in here?!

Felty: Sasha, give me something good. You’re famous.

Lucy: Okay, wait. That’s it. You got enough.

Felty: Come on.

Lucy: I’m gonna call security. You’re done. You’re done.

Felty: Ladies, ladies, ladies, let’s get a shot of the newly minted millionaires on top of the world.

Lucy: -I’m calling security.

Maxie: -That’s enough!

Brook Lynn: Do you want Olivia Quartermaine to know about this? Did I mention she’s my stepmother?

Sasha: Just leave me alone, please.

Austin: No, no, no. Come on, dude. You heard the lady. Leave her alone.

Felty: I’m just trying to do my job.

Austin: Don’t do your job. Just beat it.

Felty; Deception’s loss.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ]

Gladys: Where’d Sasha go?

Sasha: [ Breathing heavily ] [ Groans ]

Felty: Is that on the menu?

Sasha: [ Gasps ]

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

---

[ Grunting ]

Alexis: Someone’s trying to kill us. Send police to Rana Point.

Harmony: No!

Carly: Harmony!

Alexis: Hurry, please! She’s lost her mind!

Harmony: No! No!

Alexis: I-I-I’ll send for an ambulance.

Carly: We got to stop her. We got to stop her!

---

Ava: Thank you.

Violet: What’s the most popular color?

Nail tech: This happens to be the most popular color.

Violet: Cool.

Finn: [ Chuckles ] Violet is in seventh heaven.

Ava: Hmm? Enjoy it. I don’t get as much time as I’d like with my daughter. I’ve learned to cherish every moment.

Violet: [ Laughs ] It tickles.

Ava: Wait until you get a pedicure.

Finn: The operative word is “wait.” Great. Now she’s gonna want one of those, too.

Ava: And you’ll let her have one. You’re a good dad. I can tell.

Finn: I try. Of course, I get accused of overdoing it sometimes, but… really, this is the easy part, right? I mean, the hard part is wanting to protect her every single moment, whether I’m with her or not.

Ava: I know exactly how you feel. Last year, I… I almost left the country to protect Avery. I’m glad it didn’t come to that.

Finn: [ Sighs ] Anything for them, right?

Ava: Absolutely anything.

Violet: Daddy, you haven’t picked a color yet.

Finn: Hmm? What was I just saying? Hmm?

[ Both laugh ]

Finn: Okay, I’ll pick a color. [ Smooches ]

[ Monitor beeping ]

Dante: You know who did this to you, don’t you?

Sonny: How you doing? Don’t worry, you’ll be joining your friend real soon. [ Laughs ]

Dante: Hey, I’ll lock up whoever did it to you. You just got to give me a name.

---

Sonny: Why aren’t you looking Dante: for your dad? Oh, unless you know where he’s headed.

Curtis: I don’t.

Sonny: You know, I can get my guys to track him down.

Curtis: Why do you care?

Sonny: Well, I know what it’s like for, you know, a father and a son to stop trusting each other.

Curtis: I’m sure you speak from experience.

Sonny: I have two very different, strong sons that mean the world to me. We’ve had our differences over the years. We’ve, uh, burned some bridges. Some have been repaired. Others haven’t.

Curtis: I’m sorry. How do you know my father and I haven’t burned our own bridges?

Sonny: Well, only you know that. You don’t think it can be rebuilt?

Curtis: [ Sighs ]

Sonny: Let me just — let me just tell you something. If you think it can… don’t give up.

---

Portia: -Thank you, n’neka.

Drew: -Thanks.

N’neka: Thank you.

Drew: Look, Marshall was hiding something from his past, and Curtis just had no idea when that secret might surface or what it might lead to. So he was just trying to be proactive, trying to almost dig out that secret before it blew back on his family.

Portia: Marshall is a musician. He has a clarinet in his case, not a machine gun.

Drew: Then why is he being so secretive? Why is he implying that he’s been on the run from something, or someone, from his past?

Portia: I guess I just wish that he would have let me help him find those answers. I could have helped him avoid some trouble in the process. I mean…

Drew: No, there’s no trouble. Yeah, there’s no trouble yet, Drew.

Drew: Just put yourself in Curtis’ shoes for a second. If Marshall’s past does end up being dangerous, the less you know, the better.

---

Nina: Never mind me. It’s — nobody is going to use me as a model on how to recover from grief in a healthy way. You know what I’m probably doing? Just projecting my own loss onto Sasha.

Brando: Maybe she still seems like the daughter you never had. Sasha still regrets trying to pass herself off as your child. And she thinks about it nearly every day.

Nina: Well, Sasha and I both have done things that we regret. You just tell your wife — I want you to tell her this — that she just needs to focus in on herself and you. And if that’s not enough to make her happy, then this amazing career that she has that has made her so much money.

Brando: Yeah. It doesn’t take the place of Liam. Nothing does.

---

Sasha: Stop it. Please. Just leave me alone, please.

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

Sasha: Just stop it!

Austin: Let’s go get some dinner.

Maxie: Can we reschedule? I-I don’t want to leave Sasha.

Brook Lynn: No, I’ll stick around. I’ll make sure that Sasha’s okay. You enjoy your night.

Austin: Are you suggesting… I mean, you’re helping Maxie spend time with me?

Brook Lynn: As long as I don’t have to spend time with you.

Austin: That’s funny. Touché.

Maxie: Thank you, Brook Lynn. Um, should we go up to the terrace for the spring tasting menu?

Austin: Or I got a better idea. Why don’t we get a six-pack and some takeout wings and go back to your place?

Sasha: -Just — just leave me alone!

Austin: -Sasha.

[ Sasha groans ]

Gladys: What? Hey! What part of “get lost” do you not understand?!

Felty: Give that back!

Austin: Or you’ll do what? What would you do?

Felty: I’m just doing my job.

Austin: Okay, well, do your job someplace else. Like the gutter.

Felty: She has my camera. That’s theft.

Gladys: Take it back, you filthy, rotten piece of garbage. Let’s go, sweetie. Come on. Carly’s gonna hear about this.

Lucy: Okay. Go, go, go, go, go. Okay. You do know who she’s talking about? Really? Do you not know Carly? Carly, who happens to be the ex-wife of Sonny Corinthos, a very complicated businessman. So I think you should be afraid. Very, very afraid. Because I know from personal experience that Mr. Corinthos has a very bad temper. Short fuse. He doesn’t like women exploited. And you know what? If he’s not gonna handle it, if he doesn’t want to get involved, Carly has a very fearsome lawyer, and she will take everything from you, make you bankrupt without breaking a nail!

Felty: She took my memory card! That has my photos on it!

Brook Lynn: Gladys.

Maxie: Gladys.

---

Carly: [ Breathing heavily ]

Alexis: What happened to you?

Carly: Harmony drugged me. We’ve got to stop her.

Alexis: Oh, let the police take care of it. They’re on their way.

Carly: And if they’re too late, Harmony’s gonna go straight for Willow and Wiley.

---

Ava: [ Gasps ] Oh! Absolutely beautiful. You chose the perfect color.

Violet: I like daddy’s, too.

Ava: Yeah?

Finn: [ Blows ] Wow. I really think lavender’s my color.

[ Ava and Violet laugh ]

Ava: Anything for them, right?

Finn: [ Laughs ] Yeah.

---

Sonny: Hey, baby. Do you want an ice-cream sundae? Yeah? You’ve been a good girl? [ Chuckles ] Alright, here’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna pick up all the stuff to make the ice-cream sundae, and I’m gonna bring it to you tomorrow. Is that a deal? I love you, too, sweetheart. Sweet dreams. Bye!

Dante: Oh, there it is. Hey. You’re still here, huh?

Sonny: Yeah. What happened at G.H.?

Dante: TJ got a new patient — one of the guys who tried to rob you at Charlie’S.

Sonny: Really? Some people just, you know, can’t catch a break.

Dante: Uh-huh.

Sonny: How’s he doing?

Dante: Got a broken arm, lost a tooth, lost some blood. Lost some memory, actually, too.

Sonny: Is that so?

Dante: Yeah. Doesn’t know how he got to the E.R. Or who put him in there.

Sonny: Yeah. Memory is a very fragile thing. I mean, I should know that.

Dante: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: How’s his partner?

Dante: Vanished. Thin air.

---

Messenger: This is for Dr. Ashford.

Nurse: Oh, he’s right over there.

Messenger: Thank you. Dr. Ashford?

TJ: That’s me.

Messenger: Sign here, please. Thank you.

TJ: Thanks. Wait. Who’s this from?

---

Nina: Brando, I’ve never said this. I’m sorry that you lost Liam, too. Your grief is just as significant as Sasha’s.

Brando: Yeah, Sasha and I, we grieve different ways. Yeah. I guess I get my way from my mom.

Nina: [ Chuckles ]

Brando: Whatever Gladys is feeling, you know. When you step on her toes, she says, “ouch.”

Nina: That’s right. And if you stepped on Sasha’s toes, she would apologize for being in the way.

Brando: My mom’s worried that, um, you know, Sasha’s trying to cover up her pain. I thought that was just, you know, her way of processing it.

Nina: Yeah, she — she insists on toughing it out, right?

Brando: Mm.

Nina: And keeping all that hurt inside, which means that all that pain could be taking an emotional toll on her that no one’s really aware of.

---

[ Horn honking ]

Sasha: It’s the photographer. I can’t shake him.

Gladys: He wants this.

Sasha: You stole his memory card?

Gladys: That rat deserved it after taking all those pictures of you.

[ Horn honking ]

Gladys: Just to make a fast buck.

Sasha: Oh, God. I’d tell you how much I love you right now, Gladys, but first we need to lose this parasite.

[ Engine revving ]

---

Rory: Paramedics are on their way.

Carly: Okay.

Rory: How are you feeling?

Carly: Well, Harmony Miller drugged me. I have no idea what was in the syringe, but I’m feeling better. Much better. And Alexis saved my life.

Alexis: You saved mine.

Rory: So you both were targeted because Harmony Miller killed Dr. Neil Byrne, and you found out?

Alexis: Harmony also killed Neil’s brother, Brendon.

Rory: The body that was recovered from the harbor.

Alexis: She pushed him off the cliff, and the river must’ve carried him into the harbor.

Rory: Did she indicate a motive?

Alexis: He was blackmailing Harmony.

Carly: You’re wasting your time talking to us. Harmony took off through the woods. You have got to stop her. If she reaches the highway, she’s gonna escape.

---

Harmony: [ Panting ] You two are all I have left. And I won’t lose you.

---

Dante: You wouldn’t know anything about a disappearing robbery suspect, would you?

Sonny: Some guys are just meant for trouble, like those guys who tried to hold me up at, you know, Charlie’s.

Dante: Mm.

Sonny: And then trouble finally caught up to them.

Dante: Yeah, I mean, one of them disappeared and one of them’s beat up in the hospital. But I think the message got through.

Sonny: To whom?

Dante: To them. To whoever else tries to take what’s yours.

Sonny: I’m a victim. You know that, right?

Dante: -Yeah, I know. -Yeah. But, look, I know someone paid for their high-priced lawyer. I know someone got them bailed out. And that’s somebody that did that to be generous or to keep them within reach.

Sonny: Yeah.

Dante: Hey, look… let’s hope the message got through and was received and that’s the end of it and there’s no repercussions. Okay?

Sonny: It’s a — it’s a dangerous world out there. Right? And I just want to say that the PCPD is damn lucky… …to have a good man like you.

---

Portia: If Curtis knows why his father walked out on him for the second time, that would explain his silence.

Drew: How so?

Portia: Maybe Curtis went after Marshall. Maybe Curtis is in danger. I don’t know.

Drew: Hey. You okay? I mean, we were getting a little worried.

Curtis: Yeah, I saw that you, uh, had left some messages. I’m sorry to upset you.

Portia: Well, you know me — always imagining the worst-case scenario.

Curtis: [ Sighs ]

Drew: Alright, I got to get going. Um… next time, just shoot me a text, give me a thumbs up, let me know you’re okay.

Curtis: We got to talk.

Portia: Yeah. Yeah, we sure do.

---

TJ: “I wanted to leave you a gift, but all I have to offer is this gift of music. Like you said about surgery, it’s part of one great, unfinished symphony. Your loving grandfather.” [ Chuckles ]

---

Nina: Listen, Brando, you shouldn’t have to support Sasha all by yourself. If it doesn’t seem like intruding, I would love to help her through this challenging time.

Brando: Yeah. No. No intrusion at all. You’re already helping by bringing this to my attention.

Nina: Right. So together, we’ll make sure Sasha knows that she is not alone.

Brando Thank you.

Nina: You’re welcome. Get out of here.

Brando: I’m going.

---

Lucy: I know that Sasha’s had issues with gladys in the past. I mean, really, haven’t we all? But tonight, under the circumstances, I’m very glad that gladys is Sasha’s mother-in-law.

Brook Lynn: Oh, the photographer was like a-a tick. He latched onto Sasha. We could not get rid of him.

Maxie: Is she okay? Do you think we should call her?

Lucy: Oh, you know what? I just have a feeling that maybe she’s gonna want to be alone. Okay. Tab’s all taken care of, and I will see you two bright and early in the morning. And hopefully, Sasha’s gotten over the shock of suddenly being rich and famous.

Brook Lynn: Lucy. All the money in the world, and it can’t buy happiness, right, Austin?

Austin: Uh, yeah, for sure. Money doesn’t buy happiness, but, you know, it does pay for a tasting menu upstairs.

Maxie: Wait a second. Hold on.

Austin: And wine pairing.

Maxie: No. I thought you wanted chicken wings.

Austin: Yeah, I changed my mind. As much as it pains me to agree with Brook Lynn, she makes a valid point. I think it sounds nice. A nice, romantic evening. Shall we?

Maxie: We shall.

Austin: Awesome.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ]

---

Rory: Lorraine Miller, also known as Harmony.

Carly: Please notify Michael Corinthos. He and Willow Tait share a child, Wiley Corinthos, and Harmony could be going straight for them.

Alexis: The police have to find Harmony before she makes it to the Quartermaines’.

Carly: Harmony’s already killed two people. She has nothing else to lose.

---

Harmony: Willow. I have to get to you… before they turn you against me. You’ll understand. I’ll make you understand.

[ Horn honking ]

Sasha: What’s he doing?

[ Horn honks ]

Gladys: Aah! Look out!

[ Screams ]

[ Crash ]

On the next “General Hospital” —

Portia (to Curtis): I thought that we were in this together.

Jordan: What else do you know?

Laura: And I come bearing glad tidings.

Spencer (into phone): I need you to do me this one favor.

Trina (to Rory): I can, I’m not sure if I should.

Carly (into phone): I need you and Willow to come to the emergency room right now.
