Willow? Hello? Willow, are you there?<\/p>\n<p>[ Cellphone rings ]<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Hey, Diane, what\u2019s up?<\/p>\n<p>Diane: I\u2019m at the PCPD. Michael\u2019s been arrested.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: What?<\/p>\n<p>Diane: He punched a reporter in front of commissioner Ashford.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Oh, why?<\/p>\n<p>Diane: Well, apparently, said reporter was asking some not-so-polite questions about Josslyn\u2019s leaked video.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: [ Sighs ] I\u2019m on my way.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Sonny: Hey, Shawn.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Hey, Sonny. How you doing, man?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: What\u2019s going on?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: [ Chuckles ] Hey.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: I was, uh \u2014 I wa\u2013 Olivia sent me some dinner, and I was just going to, you know, thank her.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Well, I\u2019m just meeting, uh, TJ, Molly, and Jordan. Have a seat.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Of course, they\u2019re off saving the world, and I\u2019m the first one here, so\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Don\u2019t sell yourself short. You turned The Invader from a scandal rag to a legitimate publication.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: So, Kristina says that you hired Alexis?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: That I did.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Make a good team?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yes, I thought so.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Alexis: [ Sighs ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Monitor beeps ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Knock on door ]<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: Good. You\u2019re still here.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: You know, it\u2019s customary to ask, \u201cIs this a good time?\u201d And, by the way, the answer would be no, Smoltz. So why don\u2019t you come back tomorrow morning? Better yet, e-mail me.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: Sorry, this is too good. I\u2019ve got a story that is perfect for The Invader, trust me. You\u2019re not going to want to miss out.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Diane: I spoke to Carly. She should be here soon.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: She should be focused on Joss, not me.<\/p>\n<p>Diane: I am doing everything I can to get justice for your sister. Just so you know, this doesn\u2019t help.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I know.<\/p>\n<p>Diane: Unfortunately, because of the time, you\u2019re probably going to be arraigned tomorrow. So unless this Smoltz decides to drop the charges, you are in here for the night.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Well, wouldn\u2019t be the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Diane: You sound exactly like Jason.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: How many times you been through this drill with him?<\/p>\n<p>Diane: [ Chuckles ] Well, I\u2019d have to check my records, but we were in the triple digits.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Well, you know what? You always found a way to make him walk in the end, though.<\/p>\n<p>Diane: Yes, but to the best of my recollection, Jason never punched a reporter in front of the police commissioner.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Mr. Corinthos, you\u2019ll be transferred to holding soon.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Can I ask you a question?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Sure.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: What are you doing to catch the bastard who ruined my sister\u2019s life?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Harmony: Phyllis, it\u2019s good to see you again. I had no idea you were in Port Charles.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: It\u2019s a relatively new development.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: I forgot that you used to go by the name Lorraine.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Another lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: So, um, get a chair. Join us? How do you guys know each other?<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: We worked together in New York City. Well, technically not with each other. She cared for another patient in the same building where I cared for you.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Nina was your patient? You were such a stickler for privacy, I never knew.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: So how do you know Nina?<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Well, Harmony is Willow\u2019s mother. You know, Willow, right?<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Of course, she adopted Wiley. What a small world.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>TJ: Hey! Willow. Willow. Can you hear me?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>TJ: You\u2019re still with us. Come on. Come on, wake up. Willow. Willow. Hey. Hey, can you talk to me? It\u2019s Dr. Ashford.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: TJ?<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Do you remember anything? Here.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Uh, no. No, it\u2019s all fuzzy.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Okay, can you follow the light? Good. You look alright, but I\u2019m still admitting you.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: No.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Yes. Can I call someone for you?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: My mom. You can call my mom.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Okay.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Nina: So how was your visit with Lenny\u2019s friend?<\/p>\n<p>[ Cellphone rings ]<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: It was nice. Always good to hear old stories.<\/p>\n<p>[ Both chuckle ]<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Yeah, it is. I bet.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Excuse me. Hi, honey.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: This is Dr. Ashford at general hospital. Your daughter fainted on site. I\u2019ll be admitting her.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Oh, my god. Okay, okay, thank you. I\u2019ll be right there. Uh, I\u2019m so sorry, but I have to go.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Um, Harmony, is everything okay?<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: I\u2019ll think about what you proposed and let you know.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Uh\u2026<\/p>\n<p>[ Door closes ]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Diane: Will you let me handle this, please? Well?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: You know how this works, Diane. I can\u2019t disclose details of an ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n<p>Diane: Ah, so there is an investigation.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: She\u2019s my sister, Commissioner.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: I only recently learned about this. Soon as we get something more concrete, I\u2019ll let Josslyn know.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Hey. Hi. Are you okay?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Yeah, yeah, I\u2019m fine. How\u2019s Josslyn?<\/p>\n<p>Carly: She\u2019s hanging in there. Look, I got a weird phone call from Willow. Does she know you\u2019re here?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Yeah, she was there when the whole thing happened.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: I guess I\u2019ll just text her.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Why didn\u2019t you tell me about Joss?<\/p>\n<p>Carly: I was going to. I didn\u2019t have a chance.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I\u2019m afraid that reporter\u2019s going to make things worse for her.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Well, who the hell is this guy?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Freelance. He\u2019s written several articles for The Invader.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Pre- or post-Shawn?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Pre.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Well, that\u2019s good. Maybe Alexis will be able to shut it down. Diane, can you please take care of him?<\/p>\n<p>Diane: Of course.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Thank you. I love you.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Love you.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Alright. Excuse me.<\/p>\n<p>[ Door opens, closes ]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>TJ: Willow passed out.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I\u2019m \u2014 I\u2019m fine.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: We will let a doctor be a judge of that.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: I texted Dr. Nelson that I was bringing her down to admit her.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Okay, well, I will put her in an exam room and check her vitals while we wait.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: [ Sighs ] I need to know how Michael is doing. Wait, do you have my phone?<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Thank you. He\u2019s being held at the PCPD overnight? Oh, my God.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: There is nothing that you can do for Michael if you\u2019re not well.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: But this is serious.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: So is this. Now, what would you tell one of your patients, hmm?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I would advocate for them to take care of themselves first.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Good answer. Now, let\u2019s go do just that.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: [ Sighs ] Thank you for everything, really.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Of course. Keep me updated? Thanks.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Alexis: Well, like I\u2019ve said, The Invader is not a tabloid, so if this is another one of your gossipy pitches, you can save us both the trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: I took your notes from our last meeting. This story checks all the boxes for the paper\u2019s new mission. I even got this for my troubles. Yeah, that\u2019s how much I believe in it.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Okay, go ahead. Let\u2019s hear it.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: First off, it\u2019s got a hot-button social-justice angle \u2014 nonconsensual pornography, aka revenge porn. A video was sent out to the entire student body at PCU, even played on a projector in a classroom.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Hopefully, by accident.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: So, from there, we\u2019ve also got cyber bullying and technology run amok. Then there\u2019s the whole criminal aspect.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Yeah, I know, Smoltz, yeah. Revenge porn has been illegal in New York state since 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: Correctamundo. And the cherry on top? It involves a very influential mob family.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Ah, there it is. Drifting to the salacious territory. So do you have any facts to back up your claims this time?<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: Yeah. Michael Corinthos clocked me in the face when I tried to interview him.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Oh, that influential mob family. Yeah. And one of the victims in this story is his sister, Josslyn Jacks.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Sonny: Is there a problem with Alexis?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: No. The Invader\u2019s a huge success because of her. I just meant she really doesn\u2019t need me to run it anymore. I acquired the West Coast newspapers to expand The Invader\u2019s reach, and I leave tomorrow for San Francisco to get everything started.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Look at you. Bona fide media mogul.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Ah, I\u2019m just a man who wanted a fresh start.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Well, you got it. And you know what? Doesn\u2019t happen for everyone.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Shawn: I heard about the divorce. I\u2019m sorry.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Yeah, so am I.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: How\u2019s the rest of the family doing?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Oh, look who it is, the power couple.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Hi, Uncle Sonny.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Hi.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: It\u2019s good to see you.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny:\u00a0 Yeah, you, too.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Did my dad tell you about his expanding media empire?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Yeah, at length, actually.<\/p>\n<p>[ Laughter ]<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Okay, okay, hold on. I\u2019m supposed to be bragging about you, out there saving lives. Look at you.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Oh, well, just another day, right, babe?<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Bragging rights go both ways.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Hey, can you join us for dinner?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: No, no. I was just, uh \u2014 just going to pick up \u2014 whatever. It doesn\u2019t matter. Listen, have a \u2014 have a great time in San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Right.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Enjoy your family.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Thank you, my friend.<\/p>\n<p>[ Cellphone rings ]<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Officer Bentley, what can I do for you? Whoa, whoa, wait. What about Michael?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Alexis: Are you sure it\u2019s Joss in the video?<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: With her boyfriend, Cameron Webber.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: They must be horrified.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: So what do you say?<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: I admit it\u2019s better than the other stories that you\u2019ve pitched me. But if you\u2019re really in line with the new direction that The Invader is taking, why did Michael clock you?<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: I may have raised the possibility that his sister and her boyfriend put up the video themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: You provoked the victim\u2019s family by sensationalizing the story? Do you see, Smoltz? Do you see why I would doubt your ability to report with accuracy?<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: [ Sighs ] Cards on the table?<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Please. I want the distinction of an Invader byline. It\u2019s held in high regard now. In return, you get a piece on a hot-button issue featuring a hot-button family. You know as well as I do the Corinthos name sells. So do we have a deal?<\/p>\n<p>Carly: I\u2019d think twice about that.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Epiphany: [ Sighs ] Your B.P. Is low, and your respirations are shallow and rapid.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Well, I\u2019m \u2014 I\u2019m stressed about Michael and Josslyn. That\u2019s \u2014 that\u2019s understandable, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Have you eaten today? Mm-hmm. You don\u2019t have to be a nurse to know that stress and lack of nutrition is a bad combination. You need to take better care of yourself. Our patients do not need our nurses collapsing on them.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I know, I know. [ Sighs ] I am so embarrassed.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: We\u2019ve all been there. [ Chuckles ] [ Sighs ] I remember when I was a student nurse.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 [ Chuckles] I once drank so much coffee, trying to stay awake during clinicals that I spent half my shift doubled over in pain in the break room. Worst stomach ache of my life. [ Laughs ]<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I can\u2019t even imagine that. You\u2019re such an amazing nurse.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Sucking up to me is not going to get a doctor in here any faster.<\/p>\n<p>[ Both chuckle ]<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: I\u2019m good at my job. I love what I do.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I really love it, too. Which surprised me. When I was teaching, I never thought I\u2019d do anything else. Did you always want to be a nurse?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Hm. No, actually. But, uh, nursing\u2019s been good to me. I love caring for patients. It brings me joy.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Michael: [ Sighs ] What are you doing here?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: I heard you were arrested. You alright?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I\u2019m fine.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Diane, can you get him out of here?<\/p>\n<p>Diane: Well, that\u2019s the plan, but he\u2019ll be spending the night here unless I can work some magic with the D.A. So wish me luck.<\/p>\n<p>[ Door opens ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Door closes ]<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: What happened?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Doesn\u2019t concern you.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: I know you\u2019re upset, but I can help you.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I don\u2019t want your help. I don\u2019t need anything from you. Is that \u2014 is that clear enough?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Sonny: Alright, listen to me. I know we\u2019ve had our differences lately.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Differences? Is that what you call it?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: But you\u2019re my son. I love you. Jordan giving you a hard time? Just tell me if she is.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: She\u2019s just doing her job. Look, I punched a reporter in the face right in front of her. She had no choice but to bring me in.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Was it self-defense?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: He was getting in my face about Josslyn, so I just \u2014<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: What\u2019s going on with Josslyn?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I told you, it doesn\u2019t concern you.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: No, if it concerns Josslyn, it concerns me.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Really? See, I didn\u2019t think you cared about anything these days except for Nina.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Okay, leave my personal life out of it. My family comes first. You know that.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: No, no, dad, Nina comes first for you. And just for the record, Josslyn isn\u2019t your family anymore.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Nina: When Willow made it perfectly clear that she and Michael would not allow me to see Wiley, I figured it was time for me to get proactive. Thank you. So I threatened to sue for visitation rights.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: I don\u2019t blame you, but I wish a court battle could be avoided.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Thank you. Yeah, you and me both. I don\u2019t want to put Wiley through that. Besides, Michael has proven that he is not above dirty tricks. I mean, who\u2019s to say he\u2019s not going to pull something again and get that judge to rule against me?<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: So what\u2019s next?<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Yeah, well, I thought I was going to talk to Harmony, which I did, and convince her to at least talk to Willow. And then maybe Willow could talk to Michael and convince him to let me be part of Wiley\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Without getting the courts involved. Do you think she would do that?<\/p>\n<p>Nina: I don\u2019t know. You know, originally I thought, \u201cyeah, she\u2019s on board,\u201d but you just saw right now she seemed pretty noncommittal, didn\u2019t she?<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: I\u2019m sure she just needs some time to think. When she does, she\u2019ll realize that Wiley needs all of his grandmothers in his life.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Yeah. If only Michael and Willow would realize that, too.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Harmony: Thank you. What happened?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Uh, Michael was arrested.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: What? Why?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I\u2019ll explain later. And I was too busy to eat today, so between that and the stress, I guess I passed out.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: I was so worried, terrified I\u2019d lose you after we worked so hard to find our way back.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Mom, you\u2019re \u2014 you\u2019re \u2014 you\u2019re not going to lose me.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Good. Because I love you, and I\u2019m so grateful that you\u2019re in my life.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I love you too, mom.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: What did the doctor say?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I haven\u2019t, um, seen one yet.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Then I\u2019m going to track one down.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Mom.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Excuse me. Why hasn\u2019t my daughter been seen?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: And your daughter is\u2026?<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Willow Tait. This is unacceptable.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: We have a lot of patients tonight, and the doctors need to prioritize who they believe needs urgent care first.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Willow fainted. How is that not urgent? Is there someone who can move her up on the list?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Not above me. I\u2019m the head nurse.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: That\u2019s perfect. You must have some decision- making power around here.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: [ Sighs ] You\u2019re a mother worried about her child. And for that reason and that reason only, I\u2019m willing to make allowances, but you\u2019re about to reach your limit.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Please. My daughter has run herself ragged for your nursing program. There must be something you can do.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Shawn: So what are we thinking?<\/p>\n<p>Molly: I can\u2019t decide between the tagliatelle and the sea bass.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Okay, uh, you get one, I\u2019ll get the other, and we share.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Have I told you lately that you are brilliant?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Uh, not today.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Oh, well, you\u2019re brilliant.<\/p>\n<p>[ Laughs ]<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Thank you, baby.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Hello.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Hi.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Hey.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Aw, it is so good to have you home.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Aw, good to see you, too.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: How you feel?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Never better.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Mm, mm. Well, you have been missed.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Really? \u2018Cause I\u2019m trying not to take it personally that you\u2019re leaving for San Francisco right when I get back.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Yeah, Dad, what\u2019s up with that?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Just a business trip.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Mm-hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Mm-hmm.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: A long business trip.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Come on, now, you can\u2019t rush this type of thing. I have to make sure everything is running smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Okay, where\u2019s my hug?<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Yep.<\/p>\n<p>[ Jordan and Molly chuckle ]<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Okay, okay, my turn. Do you think you can stand one more?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Always.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: [ Giggles ]<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: I hear you\u2019re doing great things at the D.A.\u2019S office.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: I\u2019m excited we get to work together.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: I know. Me, too. I mean, don\u2019t get me wrong, Mac is great, but everyone is so excited that you\u2019re back.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Mm, it\u2019s almost like I never left.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Except for this one skipping town on me.<\/p>\n<p>[ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Hurry home, will you?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: I\u2019ll do my best.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Carly: Let me guess. This is the so-called journalist trying to profit off of my daughter\u2019s pain.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: Mrs. Corinthos. I had the pleasure of meeting your son earlier. Or more specifically, his fist. How\u2019s he doing in lockup?<\/p>\n<p>Carly: He\u2019s doing great, thanks. Which is more than you\u2019re going to be able to say after my attorney files suit and sues you for every dime you\u2019ve ever made.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Alright, that\u2019s enough of an introduction for now. Get out, Smoltz. Now.<\/p>\n<p>Smoltz: Have a good evening, ladies.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Out, out. I\u2019m sorry for what Joss is going through.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: If you mean that, you will not publish this story.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: I think that would be a mistake.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Carly: Are you kidding me? You\u2019re such a hypocrite. I mean, the great defender of all wronged people everywhere. Yet when my daughter is violated, you just want to exploit it. Come on, Alexis, what if it was one of your girls?<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: I\u2019d be livid. But it\u2019s because of my daughters that I think The Invader should run the story.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: What?<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: What Joss and Cameron, what they\u2019re going through is terrible, but let\u2019s be real. In situations like this, it\u2019s usually the woman that bears the brunt.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Josslyn\u2019s life is falling apart.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: It\u2019s a big story, Carly, and it\u2019s just a matter of time before someone else picks it up. But if The Invader runs it first, we can frame the narrative. I can make sure that it\u2019s handled respectfully, I can be sensitive to what the kids are going through, focus on the fact that this is misogyny in the modern world and delve into the issues of consent and privacy in the digital age.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: So if you run the article, then you get to shape the perspective moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Let me put it this way. If someone else runs the article, it will be trashy in comparison. Now, I don\u2019t have to mention Joss\u2019 or Cameron\u2019s name if they don\u2019t want me to, but I could also provide them with the opportunity to speak about their experience, both shared and personal. It would be entirely up to them.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: [ Sighs ]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Shawn: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Why do women always go to the bathroom together?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: One of the world\u2019s greatest mysteries.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Right.<\/p>\n<p>[ Both chuckle ]<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Hey, you and Molly still on board to keep an eye on Alexis while I\u2019m gone?<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Yeah, of course. Have there been any developments with Harmony?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Nothing more since we last spoke about it.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Which means you\u2019re still worried. Have you considered talking to Alexis?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn:\u00a0 I did. Let\u2019s just say she doesn\u2019t share my concerns. I know Alexis is a strong woman and more than capable of making her own choices, but I also know how big that heart of hers is. I hate to see someone use it against her. I\u2019m not a fan of someone taking advantage of my friends.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Just\u2026 just friends?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: How do you feel about that?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: You can\u2019t keep living in past. You know, time to move on.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Nina: When I found out that Nelle was my daughter, after she already passed, I was devastated.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: I remember.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: The only thing that hurt more was waking up from my coma to\u2026 to learn that my baby was gone.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: I can\u2019t begin to express my regret for the part I played in separating you and your little girl.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: No, it\u2019s not your fault. It was all my mother\u2019s fault. Besides, if it wasn\u2019t for you, I never would have known about the half-heart necklace.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: I wonder if that would\u2019ve been best.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: I\u2019m glad I have closure. Even though it hurts.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Well, I\u2019ll never get over the guilt.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: You were honest with me. Unlike Carly. No, it doesn\u2019t \u2014 it doesn\u2019t excuse all the mistakes that I have made, believe me, and I\u2019ve made plenty of them, like when I told Wiley that Willow was not his real mom. I shouldn\u2019t have done that, but I was just desperately trying to have some kind of connection with Nelle. I was panicked, thinking that she was going to be erased.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Wiley was your only tie to your daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: And then when Michael was trying to sever that tie, well, we all know how that turned out.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Mm. Not well.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: And because of that, I may have lost my grandson forever.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Harmony: Are you still feeling lightheaded? Any dizziness?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Truthfully, I\u2019m \u2014 I\u2019m starving. Do you think you could grab me a sandwich from the cafeteria?<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Of course. Do you care what kind?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Turkey, if they have it.<\/p>\n<p>Harmony: Yeah. Be right back.<\/p>\n<p>[ Door closes ]<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: [ Sighs ] She means well.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: I\u2019m sure she does.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: Nurse Johnson\u2026 \u2026what exactly is going on here?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Sonny: Josslyn will always be my daughter. I don\u2019t care if I\u2019m with Carly or not.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Right. And you want Josslyn to rely on you, right?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Of course I do. Why wouldn\u2019t I, Michael?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Well, um, why the hell would she when you prioritized Nina?<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Oh, that\u2019s not what happened. How many times do I got to \u2014<\/p>\n<p>Michael: That\u2019s exactly what happened. Look, dad, you claim to be a family man, right? But a family man wouldn\u2019t sabotage his wife and kids to protect the woman who blew their lives apart.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: You done?! What do you want from me?!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Carly: I hate that Josslyn even has to weigh this decision.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: So do I.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: It\u2019s beyond humiliating. She\u2019s being harassed online.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: I\u2019m truly sorry, Carly.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: Well, the effects of this are devastating, and I keep telling Josslyn that it\u2019s going to pass. And it will. I know that. But \u2014<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: But it will be some time.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: [ Sighs ] I don\u2019t want things to get worse for her. Do you understand that?<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: I\u2019m on Joss\u2019 side \u2014 and yours. If you don\u2019t want me to do the story, then I won&#8217;t. But somebody will. And wouldn\u2019t it be better if Joss had some say over how that was done?<\/p>\n<p>Carly: She and Cam are just starting out their lives as adults. I mean, to be dealt this hand\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: You never know. Joss might find talking about this experience to be empowering.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: If she doesn\u2019t want it published?<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Then I won&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: It\u2019s her call. I\u2019m going to talk to Josslyn, and I will let you know.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis: Just be warned, there\u2019s not a lot of time.<\/p>\n<p>Carly: [ Sighs ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Door closes ]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>TJ: Should we do this?<\/p>\n<p>Molly: Definitely.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Okay, what do you think that\u2019s about?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Maybe they\u2019re just so hopelessly in love, they couldn\u2019t wait another minute to be alone together.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Well, knowing those two, I wouldn\u2019t rule it out.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan:\u00a0 It\u2019s amazing, isn\u2019t it? Still crazy in love after almost 10 years together.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah. They\u2019re a perfect fit.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Maybe not getting married is the answer. Next time, I\u2019ll try a domestic partnership, see if that works out any better.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Well, with all the mistakes we both made, with all the regrets we\u2019ll always have, there\u2019s one brilliant consolation. We have a son, and he is thriving.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: Thriving\u2019s not even an adequate word, is it?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: [ Chuckles ] Right. Uh, okay, what is this?<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: What is this?<\/p>\n<p>TJ: Tonight is a celebration of family. My mom is back and healthier than ever.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah, she is.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: And, dad \u2014 thank you \u2014 I will miss you while you\u2019re gone, but I am so proud of all the good you\u2019re doing. To my parents.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: To family.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan: To family.<\/p>\n<p>TJ: To family.<\/p>\n<p>Molly: To family. Aww.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: Can we speak privately?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Of course. Dr nelson, Dr. Ashford and I have been in touch with you about this patient, who just happens to be one of our nursing students.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: So she gets special treatment. Is that it?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: She\u2019s been waiting for quite a while.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: Because you\u2019re busy, nurse Johnson. Patients are seen based on the severity of their condition.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: I\u2019m aware.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: Then you\u2019re also aware that Ms. Tait was stable, putting her further down the list.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: She only needed an I.V. of saline and electrolytes. You would have written it up, you would have signed off, I would have set it up. So I skipped a step. It\u2019s not like I haven\u2019t done this before.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: That\u2019s not the point. You stepped outside the chain of command, and you took it upon yourself to treat a patient. These protocols are in place for a reason.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: I understand.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: We\u2019ll finish this discussion later. How are you feeling, Ms. Tait?<\/p>\n<p>Willow: Much better, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: Dr. Ashford examined her upstairs. He\u2019s filled me in. It\u2019s all in her chart.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Nelson: Well, since you\u2019ve already began treatment, I\u2019ll let you finish it.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I am so sorry. I did not mean to get you in trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: No, it\u2019s okay. [ Sighs ] Honestly, you would think that after 20 years, he would have a little more trust in my judgment. I have been working as a nurse for 20 years. Longer than some of these \u2014 no, most of these doctors, and I still have to defer to their judgment.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: That must be so frustrating.<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: I just wish that I had a more active role in patient-care decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: So why don\u2019t you get a job where you will?<\/p>\n<p>Epiphany: [ Chuckles ] I\u2019ve been a nurse for so long, I honestly don\u2019t think I could do anything else.<\/p>\n<p>Willow: I felt the same way about teaching, remember? But then I realized I was ready for a change. Maybe you are, too.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Phyllis: I know it feels bleak.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: It\u2019s the bleakest.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: But people are capable of forgiveness.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Yeah, and Willow, she\u2019s very forgiving. When we first met, we had our issues, but we got past them, and we\u2019ve had some really touching moments with each other since then. I just don\u2019t understand why Willow can\u2019t see that Wiley is my only link to my daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: It\u2019s a difficult situation. Maybe Harmony is the answer\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Well \u2014<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis\u2026the bridge between all of you.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: I don\u2019t know. My gut is saying that she\u2019s going to choose to stay in her daughter\u2019s good graces over helping me.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: Well, you never know. [ Sighs ] If Harmony loves Wiley\u2026 \u2026maybe she\u2019ll see the wisdom in having you be a part of his life.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Yeah. From your lips to\u2026 \u2026Harmony\u2019s ears.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: What\u2019s this now?<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Well, you knew her back in the old New York days. You know, you could talk to her, convince her to put in a good word for me?<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: We were acquaintances over 20 years ago. I don\u2019t hold any sway with that woman.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: But you have more sway than I do. Come on, Phyllis. Everyone listens to you. Everybody. You know that\u2019s true. Please.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: This is a family-custody matter. I don\u2019t feel comfortable taking sides. However, I\u2019ll be willing to talk to Harmony and tell her about the Nina I know and love. She can then come to an informed decision on her own.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Yes! Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Sonny: [ Sighs ] You know what? I\u2019m not going to have Nina used against me anymore. You understand?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: No, I\u2019ll never understand.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Well, how many times we going to do this? I was trying to keep the peace. What\u2019d you want me to do, attack Nina? You think that would have helped?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Sonny:\u00a0 No, I\u2019m ask\u2013<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Right, right, right. This coming from you, the gold standard in payback. Now you want bygones to be bygones. Do you understand why I don\u2019t want Nina in Wiley\u2019s life? It\u2019s because she\u2019s unbalanced. She does horrible, hateful things and then claims she doesn\u2019t mean them. Who does that sound like to you? Right. Nelle.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Oh, so Nina is now poisoning people? Is that \u2014 is that \u2014 is that what\u2019s happening?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Maybe. We don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Really? Really, Michael? Is that what she\u2019s doing?<\/p>\n<p>Michael:\u00a0 Close enough. So, no, I don\u2019t \u2014 I don\u2019t need your help, alright? And neither does Josslyn.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: Okay, I\u2019m going to find out what happened to Josslyn. So why don\u2019t you just tell me?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Because she wouldn\u2019t want me to, Dad. And, honestly, I\u2019d venture to say she\u2019d rather have the whole situation on a billboard in Times Square than to accept anything from you. You made your choice, and your family wasn\u2019t it.<\/p>\n<p>Sonny: I\u2019m sorry that I caused you any pain, and maybe one day you will understand.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Nina: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] Talk to you soon.<\/p>\n<p>Nina: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>[ Song begins ]<\/p>\n<p><em>\ud83c\udfb5\ud83c\udfb6 Before the darkness \/ Before the rain \/ Before the heartache \/ Before the pain \/ Pain \/ Remember the kindness \/ Remember the light \/ The joy of a sunbeam \/ The joy of a smile \/ Smile \/ And I will try \/ To keep my spirits high \/ And let\u2019s keep hope alive here.
