00:00Darling, is that Jen Sidwell's son I just saw walking away?
00:05Yeah, Marco Rios. He's a lawyer.
00:08I know he is. Who are you suing?
00:10Not you, cranny, so you can relax.
00:12Good, because you'd lose.
00:14But if I was going to sue someone, it would be my mother or my grandmother.
00:18But what would be the point of that?
00:20I mean, what are the damages for the look of pain I saw on my son's face?
00:24I made three big ad buys, so I'm expecting a huge turnout.
00:28And as for the opening...
00:30Oh, well, I did some digging, and I found some low-costs, but I'll get enough options.
00:35Oh.
00:37Trina, thanks for your diligence.
00:39But we are going all out.
00:41I mean it.
00:42Top shelf all the way.
00:44Caviar and champagne and canapes, the whole shebang.
00:48Okay, well, I mean, I thought that we were watching out for your financial situation, considering what's happened.
00:56Well, that nightmare's over, finally.
00:58David Jerome is back in the black.
01:02Well, a job would be great.
01:03I'm actually looking for another source of income.
01:05Do you need a sub-bartender at Charlie's, or...?
01:07Actually, I have something else in there.
01:10Okay.
01:11Well, I mean, I can do a little bit of everything, so...
01:13What?
01:15I want you to seduce someone.
01:18What are you doing, baby sister?
01:20Oh, my goodness, it's just so good to see you.
01:22Hey, why didn't you tell me you were back in Port Charles?
01:25I couldn't look you in the face.
01:28You couldn't look me in the face.
01:30Oh.
01:30Well, why not?
01:32Because I lied to you.
01:47Hello, stranger.
01:48Lucky.
01:53What brings you to GH?
01:56Well, I'm here to, uh, repay a debt.
01:59Hi.
02:06Oh, well, this is a nice surprise.
02:08I can come back later, too, if you're busy.
02:10No, no, no, no, it's fine.
02:12Uh, did you have questions about your scan?
02:15No, no, that's not why I'm here.
02:16Oh.
02:17Everything okay with you and Trina?
02:18Yeah, yeah, we're great.
02:20This is about the congressman.
02:22You have stated that your children are your priority.
02:28Yes.
02:29So tell me, what matters more?
02:33Being with them or being with Drew?
02:37Would you like me to repeat the question?
02:40We need an answer, Mrs. Corinthos.
02:46Michael asked me the same thing.
02:48If being with Drew mattered more to me than being with my children.
02:56Only it wasn't a question so much as it was an ultimatum.
03:01Michael would grant me access to my children, but only if I left Drew.
03:07And that is what this hearing is about.
03:10Not my love for my children, not my fitness as a parent, but my relationship with Drew.
03:16How controlling is that?
03:18How is that fair?
03:20Why should I have to choose?
03:21Brooklyn, what your mother and your other grandmother did
03:49was a hideous betrayal.
03:53I have a lot of things that I could say about the two of them,
03:55but then that's true on most days.
03:58For once, I'm sure I'd agree with every word.
04:00But that's about me.
04:02It's not about what you're going through.
04:04What I'm going through.
04:06You know, I kicked them out of the house.
04:10It's not even my house when I gave them the book.
04:11Yes, well, you should.
04:13Oh, and my mother's face.
04:15She just, she looks so wounded I wanted to scream.
04:17I mean, at least my grandma Gloria, you know,
04:20has the courage of her convictions and stands by what she's done.
04:23I'm not sure that that's a good thing, but okay.
04:27Meanwhile, my mother, she just kept trying to get me to understand how difficult this has been for her.
04:32Never mind everything that I have had to bury so deep just to make it bearable.
04:37And did she even consider telling me the truth for even a second?
04:41My guess is...
04:42No, she just kept lying to me and to Gio and to everyone.
04:47For all my life, I have tried to live up to my mother and grandmother's expectations,
04:53trying to be good, trying to be honest.
04:57Look where that's gotten me.
04:59You remember a while back I called you from California to tell you I'd taken care of that unpleasantness with my ex-wife?
05:06Well, nothing could have been further from the truth.
05:11Okay, then.
05:12What's the truth?
05:14I called you from a jail cell in Lodi, and you were my one phone call.
05:20Why were you in jail?
05:22Does it have something to do with your ex-wife?
05:26Yeah.
05:27Wives certainly did.
05:30And it wasn't just one of them, it was all of them.
05:33They got together and decided it was time to strip me of my assets.
05:38Even slap liens on my future earnings.
05:40He took everything and then some.
05:43It's bad, Laura.
05:44I got nothing.
05:46I'm broke.
05:47Okay, so, uh...
05:50I'm getting coded.
05:52Did you forget I said that?
05:53Happily.
05:55Uh, okay.
05:56So, the plan is...
05:57Also, um, I think this is very broad-minded of you.
06:01You know, progressive.
06:02And just between you, me, uh, and the lamppost.
06:06I've always thought that Alexis is a very attractive woman.
06:09You know, she's got a button-down minxing quality powder.
06:12Oh, no, no, no, no, no, stop.
06:13God, no.
06:14You thought I wanted you to seduce my mother?
06:17No.
06:19But who?
06:19Oh, Eva.
06:22I want you to seduce Eva.
06:25Eva Giroux?
06:26Yes.
06:28Okay.
06:30Why her?
06:32I was finally able to refinance the mortgage on my second property.
06:36And Jen Sidwell made several large purchases.
06:40And that sure didn't hurt.
06:41Is he paying by the yard?
06:43I wouldn't mind if he did.
06:45No, but Trina, honestly, you know, it was pretty touch-and-go there for a while.
06:53And I would not have gotten through it without you, without your help.
06:56I'm here for you whenever you need.
06:59Except for tomorrow.
07:02Oh.
07:02Oh, that's too bad the Sartori photographs are coming in tomorrow.
07:05I thought you might want to sign for them yourself.
07:06I know, I do.
07:07I really do.
07:08But it's just that I promised Kai that I'd go to GH for his post-op scan.
07:12Um, as I recall, you had some reservations about that.
07:17Yeah, I still do.
07:18I worry.
07:19But, I mean, it's Kai's choice to do what he loves, you know?
07:23Well, that's true.
07:26And so why do you think it's still not sitting right with you?
07:29Well, it's not because of the football.
07:33Well, I mean, it is.
07:34But it's just, it's hard to accept that Kai's getting closer to Drew.
07:41How so?
07:42Well, Drew paid for Kai's surgery, and Kai feels incredibly grateful towards him.
07:48And when I look at it from Kai's perspective, Drew's done a great thing for him.
07:55Trina, I'm not trying to get you to change Kai's mind.
08:00But your original assessment of Drew was spot on.
08:04And I would advise you both to be very careful around that man.
08:10Please, have a seat.
08:12First, I just want to say thank you for having me over at your place for the barbecue.
08:16Oh, well, it was lovely to have you.
08:17Did you enjoy yourself?
08:19Yeah, it was really fun.
08:21And it was great to meet Trina's granddad.
08:23Marshall.
08:24Mm-hmm.
08:25Yes, he's a character.
08:26He is.
08:27But I came here because I think I owe you and Mr. Ashford an apology.
08:33Why is that?
08:35I shouldn't have been going on about Drew like that.
08:38No, no, no, no.
08:39You don't have to apologize for that.
08:41We understand exactly how you feel.
08:43And Drew has been very supportive of you.
08:49Exactly.
08:50He has.
08:51And I try not to judge.
08:53And that's why I didn't turn my back on him after that whole thing in the news.
08:57And I'm sure he appreciates your loyalty.
09:01It's just, you know, I always try to make up my own mind about a person.
09:06And that's why I don't understand how someone who's been so good to me doesn't get along with you and your family.
09:11And you're all so great.
09:14I appreciate you saying that.
09:16But what's gone down between Drew and my family, it has nothing to do with anyone else.
09:24So you're saying I should just mind my own business?
09:26Oh.
09:28If you want details, we would be happy to provide them.
09:32But if you wanted to make up your own mind, you know, like you said.
09:36Okay, I know there is an issue with Aurora between Drew and Mr. Ashford.
09:41Yes.
09:42There was.
09:43So?
09:45Is there something else about Drew that I'm not seeing?
09:49Let's go back to the beginning of your affair.
09:53What really happened between you and Drew?
09:57We fell in love.
09:58It's that simple.
10:00Simple.
10:01The heart wants what it wants, right?
10:03Yes, I did try to stay away from Drew, but I just couldn't.
10:07Uh-huh.
10:08So he pursued you?
10:09No.
10:10Oh, you pursued him?
10:11No.
10:12Let me get this straight.
10:14Uh, the two of you just spontaneously fell in love one day for no reason.
10:19No one was responsible.
10:20Objection, Your Honor.
10:21Badgering.
10:22Overruled.
10:22I don't understand what my feelings for Drew and his feelings for me have to do with my ability to be a mother to my children.
10:32So your children had no bearing on your affair?
10:36No.
10:36Even when you had sex with Drew on the floor of your children's nursery?
10:49What am I looking at?
10:50That's a deed for a cabin on the lake.
10:54My dad built it.
10:56It's a great place to go when you need to clear your head.
11:00Anyway, I want you to have it.
11:05I don't understand.
11:07If this place means something to you, then why not just keep it?
11:12No, because I'm not going to be able to use it.
11:18Look, Isaiah, I'm leaving poor Charles.
11:25I tried to live up to their standards.
11:27I really did.
11:29Meanwhile, they were total hypocrites.
11:31And they were scheming for over 20 years.
11:34Good.
11:36How is this good?
11:37Because now you know exactly who they are.
11:39You don't have to please them or defend them.
11:42You're free.
11:44My son is still a Cirillo.
11:46Your son is still a Quartermain.
11:48Just like you.
11:50Yes.
11:51Like me.
11:52When all those questions started coming up about my son,
11:55where is he and what happened to him,
11:57I should have done something.
11:59What would you have done?
12:00I should have done what I do.
12:03Push and push until I get my way.
12:05As soon as Lulu came to me
12:07and told me that she found Martin Gradesos,
12:09I should have ground him down
12:11for every piece of information that he had.
12:13I should have gone looking for my son.
12:16Had you done something that I don't know about?
12:18Well, it's true, so probably.
12:23But not to me.
12:25All I'm saying is
12:26the congressman is very cunning.
12:29And you're right to be concerned
12:31about what he has in mind for Kai.
12:34I am.
12:35But I mean,
12:36he's been very helpful.
12:39Except for the documentary.
12:41I imagine that's pretty intrusive.
12:43Very.
12:44But I guess he's just trying to get some good publicity
12:47helping out a local football star.
12:49You know?
12:50Maybe.
12:51I know what Drew's capable of.
12:53And even though I don't like it,
12:56I'm doing it for Kai's sake.
12:59I'm sorry.
13:00I know that puts you in a difficult position.
13:03And you know,
13:04I'm sure your mother feels the same way.
13:06She has to deal with Drew all the time, right?
13:09Because of the pediatric sports initiative.
13:11Yeah.
13:12She has been very stressed lately.
13:14Maybe that's why.
13:17Drew and Curtis.
13:18They used to be good friends.
13:22Best friends.
13:24But then Drew changed.
13:28We hardly even recognize him anymore.
13:31Why do you think he changed?
13:33Well, you know Drew went to prison
13:34for insider trading.
13:36Yeah, I did read about that.
13:39Well, once he was in Pintonville,
13:41he was attacked.
13:43And he nearly died.
13:45Now, I don't know if that's why.
13:47But once Drew got out,
13:49he became opportunistic,
13:53selfish,
13:55extremely manipulative.
13:56He used to be the kind of guy
13:58who would take a bullet
13:59for somebody that he cared about.
14:02But now,
14:03now he's willing to use anyone
14:05to get what he wants.
14:07And that's why Trina,
14:09Curtis, and I,
14:11we're concerned.
14:13And I appreciate that.
14:14But how can I just turn my back
14:17on someone who's done so much for me?
14:19Right.
14:20And you know what?
14:20We would never ask you to do that.
14:22But I do want you to be aware.
14:26Be aware of the kind of person
14:27Drew really is.
14:30Because Curtis and I trusted him.
14:32And he did things to hurt us.
14:35We don't want him to exploit you, too.
14:37And you really think
14:39that he's capable of doing that?
14:41Oh, I know he is.
14:43Neither Drew nor I planned it.
14:48Drew was very emotional.
14:51Sam McCall,
14:52the mother of his daughter Scout,
14:53had just died.
14:54And the only way to comfort Drew
14:56was to have sex
14:58in the children's nursery.
14:59It wasn't like that.
15:01But you were putting
15:02Drew's needs
15:03ahead of the needs
15:04of your children
15:05in that instance,
15:06weren't you?
15:07Oh.
15:08Well, let's see.
15:10You had sex
15:12on the floor
15:13of the children's nursery,
15:14a room reserved
15:15for your children,
15:17where they could have come in
15:18at any point
15:20and seen the two of you
15:21en flagrant.
15:23Objection.
15:23You're on, please.
15:24Badgering.
15:26Sustained.
15:26Miss Miller,
15:27you've made your point.
15:28Move on.
15:28Miss Carinthos,
15:31when Michael
15:32was at
15:33General Hospital
15:34being treated
15:35for third-degree burns,
15:36you barred
15:37his family
15:38from access to him,
15:40didn't you?
15:41Only because Tracy...
15:43Yes or no?
15:46Yes.
15:47But I also...
15:48But, oh, but!
15:49But, so you weren't
15:51sure about that
15:52course of action?
15:53No, I...
15:54What, uh...
15:56What convinced you
15:57otherwise?
15:58Drew, he helped me
16:01realize it was the only
16:02way to get my children
16:03back from the border
16:04meets.
16:05Miss Carinthos,
16:05when you decided
16:07to take Wiley
16:08to Washington, D.C.
16:10for the congressman's
16:11inauguration,
16:12why didn't you
16:13consult
16:13with Mr. Carinthos?
16:16Wiley was so excited.
16:18Drew and I
16:19thought it would be
16:19a great opportunity
16:20for Wiley
16:21to see our government
16:22at work.
16:22We didn't
16:23think Michael
16:24would mind.
16:25According to
16:25previous testimony,
16:27when Michael chose
16:28to seek treatment
16:29for his third-degree
16:30burns in Germany,
16:32that seemed to
16:33frustrate you,
16:34didn't it?
16:35It did, yes.
16:36Because you didn't
16:37want him to get
16:39the best possible
16:40medical treatment?
16:41Of course.
16:42I just didn't think
16:45that Michael would
16:46abandon his children
16:47to do it.
16:48Oh, so Michael
16:49going to Germany
16:51to seek treatment
16:52for third-degree
16:52burns, because that's
16:53where the best
16:54treatment was,
16:55was abandoning
16:57Wiley and Amelia?
16:59That was the choice
17:00he made.
17:01Yes.
17:02Miss Carinthos,
17:03when you chose
17:04to move Wiley
17:06and Amelia
17:08into Drew's home,
17:10again, without
17:11consulting your husband.
17:12Their father
17:13was unreachable.
17:14Because he was
17:15in Germany,
17:16undergoing the best
17:17possible medical
17:18treatment for
17:19third-degree burns.
17:21Yes, and Drew
17:22and I felt it was
17:23best for the kids
17:23to have a stable
17:24home.
17:26And how do
17:26the children feel
17:27about moving
17:28into Drew Cain's
17:28house?
17:29They love it there.
17:31Have they ever
17:32expressed a desire
17:33to return to
17:34their own home?
17:35Their children,
17:36they've expressed
17:37a desire to live
17:38in Disneyland.
17:38Just answer
17:40the question.
17:42Yes, they have
17:43asked to move
17:43back home.
17:53Why would you
17:54want me to go
17:55after Ava?
17:56And why would you
17:57think that she'd be
17:58into me even a little?
18:00Well, I saw you
18:00guys together.
18:02Trust me.
18:03And Ava is a raccoon.
18:05Into garbage?
18:07Easily distracted.
18:08And you are a very
18:09charming, shiny new
18:11object.
18:12I thought Ava was
18:13seeing your sister's
18:14dad?
18:15She is, but I want
18:16you to come between
18:17them.
18:18I want you to help
18:19Rick see how
18:20horrible Ava is.
18:21Huh.
18:22I didn't realize you
18:24were looking out for
18:25good old Uncle Ricky.
18:27I'm looking out for
18:28Molly.
18:29Yeah, I spent some
18:31time on a rooftop
18:31with Molly.
18:33I was also her red
18:35carpet escort at the
18:36nurse's ball.
18:37She's pretty great.
18:40She is.
18:41Yeah, Molly's amazing.
18:42And she loves her
18:43father, but she's
18:45appalled that he's
18:45dating Ava.
18:47And she's trying to
18:51accept it, but...
18:52That's what nice
18:54people do.
18:55Yes.
18:55Listen, Molly hates
18:57Ava just as much as
18:58I do, okay?
18:59I mean, if it weren't
19:00for Ava, I never
19:01would have had that
19:02fall, and I wouldn't
19:03have lost my baby, our
19:05baby, Molly's baby, too.
19:07And Ava is also the
19:09reason my brother
19:09Morgan is dead.
19:10So, really, if you
19:12can do this, if you
19:13can come between Ava
19:14and Rick, you'd be
19:15doing a really good
19:16thing.
19:18And I can make it
19:19worth your while.
19:21My parents have been
19:22acting really weird
19:23lately.
19:25Weird how?
19:26Okay, well, my
19:29grandfather Marshall
19:30came to town to visit,
19:32and I was supposed to
19:32be like a cute little
19:33family get-together, and
19:35Kai and Marshall met,
19:37and it's supposed to
19:37be fun.
19:39But then, my parents
19:41just, they just had
19:42this vibe about them.
19:44And it's not the
19:45first time.
19:47When was the first
19:48time?
19:49I think this has been
19:49happening since the
19:50nurses' ball.
19:51They both left early.
19:53Did they say why?
19:54They said they had
19:55work the next day, and
19:57my dad had to talk to
19:58Aurora's affiliates in
19:59Japan.
19:59I just, I feel like
20:02there's something more
20:03happening.
20:06Trina, relationships go
20:09through phases.
20:11There's good times, hard
20:12times.
20:12It's perfectly normal.
20:14I don't think you have
20:15anything to worry about.
20:16Yeah, yeah.
20:19You're probably right, Ed.
20:21It's just nice to talk
20:22about it.
20:24Well, I'm always here to
20:25listen.
20:26And now that I've said
20:27it out loud, I'm sure
20:28that I'm making a big deal
20:29out of nothing.
20:32Look, it's just, you know,
20:34kind of embarrassing to
20:36admit, but the fact is I'm
20:37so scared, I can't afford
20:38my room at the Metro
20:39Court.
20:40So, I was wondering if
20:42it's possible that I could
20:43impose upon you and
20:45Kevin, you know, maybe
20:45move in for a while.
20:48Of course.
20:49Of course you can.
20:50I'm sure Kevin will be
20:50just fine with it.
20:51As a matter of fact,
20:53Lulu just moved out and
20:54into her own house.
20:56Great.
20:57Yeah.
20:57That's really something.
21:00What about Lucky?
21:01He has been spending
21:03almost all of his time
21:04with Elizabeth.
21:05I'm actually hoping that
21:06that situation is going to
21:07become more permanent.
21:08And so, you see, we have
21:10plenty of room for you.
21:13You're so welcome.
21:14I don't know what to say.
21:16And, you know, if I have
21:17anything to do with it,
21:18it's just going to be
21:19temporary, all right?
21:20Stay as long as you like.
21:22Well, I hope you mean it.
21:23Because it's going to take
21:24some doing to get me back
21:25on my feet, especially
21:26considering that my most
21:27lucrative client is now
21:29apparently in prison for
21:30life, which is undoubtedly
21:33where Valentin belongs.
21:35But in the meantime, I
21:37gives you my word, I am
21:38going to make a full
21:39financial recovery.
21:41And Tracy Quartermain
21:43is going to pay for it.
21:46Say you had looked for
21:48your son and that led
21:50you to Gio.
21:52You do realize that he
21:54could still be just as
21:55angry at you.
21:56Only if I told him who I
21:57was.
21:58Do you think he would have?
21:59I know I would have
22:01wanted to, but I also
22:04wouldn't have wanted to
22:05destroy his memories with
22:06Camilla.
22:09At least he would have
22:10known how much I wanted to
22:11find him instead of
22:12thinking I didn't want him
22:13at all.
22:14He's going to come around.
22:16He might.
22:17Oh, Dante.
22:20Dante, on the other hand,
22:21I just wish I could have
22:22come clean with him on my
22:23own terms instead of keeping
22:25my mother and grandmother's
22:26secrets.
22:26Brooklyn, you had no idea
22:28you were doing that to
22:29Dante and to Gio.
22:30No.
22:30I just believed my mother
22:31when she told me that
22:32somehow it would be better
22:33for my son if I didn't go
22:34looking for him.
22:36But you know what?
22:36I didn't have to because
22:37Lulu did it for me, even
22:38though I begged and pleaded
22:40with her to keep quiet
22:41about it.
22:42I thought I had convinced
22:44her, too.
22:45I'm sorry that didn't work
22:46out.
22:47You trusted her.
22:49Just like I trusted my
22:50mother and my grandmother.
22:53But all that blind trust
22:54ends now.
22:55What does that mean?
22:57What are you going to do?
22:58I'm going to remind people
22:59to never come for
23:00Brooklyn Quartermain.
23:02By people, do you mean
23:04Lulu?
23:06Well, don't you think that
23:07Lulu needs to be held
23:08accountable?
23:10Why are you petitioning
23:12for full custody of your
23:13children rather than
23:14sharing custody with their
23:16father?
23:16I love my children and I
23:24wanted their father to be in
23:25their lives.
23:26Wanted?
23:27Past tense?
23:29Yes.
23:30And up until an hour ago, I
23:31thought that would be possible.
23:34Michael seemed like he was
23:35open to compromise.
23:37I see.
23:37And what led you to have this
23:39impression that Michael was
23:40open to having this
23:41compromise?
23:42Last night, we were
23:44getting along so well.
23:46Last night?
23:48At General Hospital, Michael
23:50wanted to bring Wiley and
23:52Amelia to meet their new
23:53baby sister.
23:54Oh, yes, yes.
23:55The baby sister that he
23:57sired with his former
23:58fiancee and current family
24:00cook.
24:01The baby that you didn't
24:01know about that they were
24:03having until yesterday.
24:05Objection.
24:05Your Honor, we were all
24:06there.
24:07No need for the recap.
24:08Sustained.
24:12What changed?
24:15Michael did.
24:17For whatever reason, he
24:20gave in to his animosity
24:22toward Drew.
24:24What happened?
24:25Before the hearing today,
24:27Michael approached me.
24:29He made it perfectly clear
24:31that he will not agree to a
24:34joint custody arrangement.
24:36As such, I am left with no
24:38other option but to petition
24:39for full custody.
24:41Would you say that you're a
24:42perfect parent?
24:45Far from it.
24:46You mean you've made
24:47mistakes.
24:48I have made many.
24:52And I deeply regret the way
24:55my marriage ended.
24:57But you have to understand
24:58that when I fell in love
25:01with Drew, my marriage was
25:03already over.
25:04I just hadn't come to terms
25:05with it yet.
25:06Can you explain that?
25:10Michael and I were going
25:12through the motions, but
25:13neither of us were able to
25:15admit it.
25:16I may not have been the best
25:17wife, but that has nothing
25:20to do with my love for my
25:22children.
25:22Yes.
25:22And for months, you were
25:25your children's primary
25:26caretaker.
25:27Is that not correct?
25:28Yes.
25:29While Michael was in Germany,
25:30I was their sole parent.
25:33Fortunately, Drew has been
25:36a godsend.
25:38He helped us move into a
25:41safe home.
25:43We have cared for them,
25:46read to them, played with
25:47them, made them feel safe
25:50and loved.
25:52You and the congressman?
25:54Yes.
25:55I may have made mistakes, but
25:57that doesn't change the fact
25:59that I am Whitely and
26:00Amelia's mother.
26:02And they belong with me.
26:09I proposed to her.
26:12It didn't take.
26:14You don't seem as
26:14heartbroken about it as I
26:16thought you'd be.
26:16I don't know what I am,
26:18man.
26:18I mean, yeah, part of me is
26:20heartbroken, but I don't
26:22know, the rest of me feels
26:23like I know it was the
26:25right thing.
26:26For her or for you?
26:28For both of us, I think.
26:30And for Aiden.
26:32Yeah, speaking of Aiden,
26:34why not just give the land
26:36to your son?
26:37Well, I tried, but he said
26:39his wilderness phase ended
26:40when he was a PC pioneer.
26:44Oh, I guess it's not for
26:46everybody.
26:47Yeah, besides, I want you
26:48to have this land, okay?
26:50You saved my sister's life,
26:52and I can't even begin to
26:54thank you for that.
26:54This doesn't even come close.
26:57Look, you got me out of
26:59Sidwell's compound and almost
27:01got yourself killed in the
27:02process.
27:02Yeah, yeah, okay, but
27:03rescue missions, life and
27:05death, poker games, come on,
27:06man, that's just my jam.
27:08No, no, no, even before
27:09all that, when we first met
27:11at that refugee camp, I told
27:13myself I was soul-searching,
27:17but I was hiding.
27:18I wasn't practicing the
27:20medicine I was trained to do.
27:22But coming to Port Charles, I
27:26not only found a place to
27:27practice, I found a place to
27:29live.
27:30This is where I turned around
27:32and faced myself.
27:34You and your sister got me
27:36back in the OR.
27:39So if anybody owes anything, I
27:42owe you.
27:42Well, then you're welcome.
27:51I got to take off.
27:56Good luck.
27:58Yeah.
27:59You too, man.
27:59Hey.
28:09You forgot your deed.
28:10No, no, I didn't.
28:12You're going to have to, you're
28:12going to have to fix that place
28:13up for me.
28:14Just remember, you owe me.
28:18Thank you so much for your
28:19time, Dr. Robinson.
28:20You've really given me a lot to
28:22think about.
28:22Anytime.
28:23And now that I know a little
28:24bit more about Drew's
28:25background, I do have a better
28:27understanding of what Trina
28:28doesn't trust him.
28:31Kai, if I may give a word of
28:35advice.
28:36Please.
28:37Drew doesn't have to be an
28:39issue between you and Trina.
28:42Just focus on what brings you
28:44two together.
28:46Both sides have given me a
28:48great deal to consider.
28:49I will weigh the question of
28:50the settlement, but my priority
28:52will be determining which
28:53parent will retain custody of
28:56the children.
28:57First and foremost, I will keep
28:59the welfare of the Corinthos
29:00children in mind.
29:02You will all be notified when
29:03I've reached my verdict.
29:05Court is adjourned.
29:19I tried.
29:20You did more than that.
29:22You were great.
29:23Great.
29:23What do we do now?
29:26Now we wait and hope that
29:28Judge Heron makes the right
29:29decision.
29:32Somehow I don't think it
29:33matters to you what I think
29:34about Lulu.
29:34I think you have made up your
29:36mind.
29:36Maybe I have.
29:38I have tried to live down what
29:39happened with Dante and Lulu.
29:41I really tried to make up for
29:43it.
29:43You more than made up for it.
29:45I don't know.
29:46No, maybe I should have just
29:47accepted that part of myself.
29:49I would have been better off.
29:51Honestly, I should have been
29:52more like you.
29:53Wow.
29:55I don't know whether to be
29:56insulted or flattered.
29:57I'm going with flattered.
29:58I'm serious, Granny.
30:00Look at you.
30:01You are who you are and you
30:03make zero excuses for it.
30:06You would do anything for your
30:07family and you don't pretend
30:09otherwise.
30:10So far, so true.
30:11And people know that if they
30:12mess with you, you're going to
30:13mess right back.
30:15What?
30:16I love seeing this strength in
30:18you.
30:20But you need to know that
30:23exercising that God-given
30:25strength comes at a cost.
30:26I get that you're looking out for
30:31your sister, but Ava has a bit of
30:35a reputation.
30:36I'm not really sure I want to get
30:38mixed up with her.
30:39Well, like I said, I will make
30:40this for a while.
30:42How?
30:43I mean, you just reopened the bar.
30:45Ouch.
30:47I have resources.
30:49I'm good for it.
30:49Trust me.
30:50Yeah, I've heard that before.
30:52Look, I'm not uninterested.
30:54I just need to know that you're
30:56serious.
30:59Name your terms.
31:01Cash.
31:02Money up front.
31:04And because I'm such a good guy,
31:05I won't even tell Rick and Ava
31:07what you're up to.
31:10Well, I am just happy that you're
31:11back on your feet and the
31:13gallery is safe.
31:14Port Charles really wouldn't be
31:15the same without him.
31:18I have had a couple lucky breaks
31:20lately.
31:22And Rick?
31:23Rick has been a lot of help.
31:26Hmm.
31:28Well,
31:29I mean,
31:31I have noticed that
31:34the two of you have been spending
31:36a lot of
31:37time together.
31:41Let's just say that
31:42Rick has been a very good man
31:45to know
31:45on a professional level.
31:50Not a personal one, too.
31:52No?
31:54Hmm.
31:55Okay.
31:57Well, are you happy?
32:00Yeah.
32:02I think I am.
32:04Then I'm happy that you're happy.
32:08But.
32:10Are you asking me what I think?
32:11Yes, you're my friend.
32:12Yes, I'm asking you.
32:14Why don't we get you settled in
32:17before you declare war on Tracy
32:19Quartermain?
32:20Good idea.
32:21Mm-hmm.
32:23But it's no joke.
32:25I'm not kidding.
32:26One way or the other,
32:27Tracy Quartermain is going to foot the bill
32:28for my pain and suffering.
32:30Martin, I would steer clear
32:33of Tracy Quartermain right now.
32:34She's got her own upheaval going on.
32:37Ooh, my heart bleeds.
32:39Yeah, as we used to say
32:40on cell block number four,
32:41she had it coming.
32:43Okay, okay.
32:44Listen, I'm glad you're back.
32:46And my home is your home.
32:47I cannot thank you enough.
32:49But if I find out
32:50that you have broken
32:51even one law
32:54while attempting
32:55to get back at Tracy...
32:56Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
32:56Hear me out, baby sister.
32:58Look.
32:58I give you my word.
33:01My vengeance upon Tracy Quartermain
33:02will be meticulous, thorough,
33:04and 100% legit.
33:07And for once,
33:09the law's going to be on my side.
33:12Brooklyn?
33:13I spent most of my adult life
33:16wrangling with your great-grandfather.
33:22I have no doubt
33:23that I would have lived a happier life
33:25had I stepped away
33:27from the conflict
33:28instead of leaning into it.
33:31That said, I have no regrets.
33:33I thought the goal
33:33is to have any regrets.
33:35It is.
33:36But is scheming and conflict
33:38where you want to put your energy?
33:40Or do you want to put your energy
33:41into having a relationship
33:43with your son?
33:45Into strengthening your marriage?
33:47Do you know how amazing it is
33:49to find the love of your life?
33:52You had Luke.
33:54Yes, I did have Luke.
33:56But there were five
33:57or more extraneous marriages
33:59before that.
34:00There was the grifter,
34:02the three mobsters,
34:05the serial killer,
34:07and two other marriages to Luke.
34:11Wasn't the first one annulled?
34:12The point is,
34:14you're in a very different position
34:17than I was.
34:19You're surrounded by good people
34:22who love you.
34:24I want you to think very,
34:28very carefully
34:29before you put your energy
34:31and that strength
34:33toward revenge.
34:38I just wonder
34:40if Rick is the right guy for you.
34:43I know his reputation
34:46because of Joss.
34:47Hardly the most objective source.
34:51That's true.
34:52I just know that he
34:53fought for Heather Webber
34:55to be released from prison.
34:58Yes, he did.
35:01And look, I get it.
35:02It's his job.
35:03It's just that I think
35:05that you're...
35:07You're great.
35:11And...
35:11I want him to be worthy of you.
35:16So you know
35:16this isn't going to happen overnight,
35:18right?
35:19Yes, I do.
35:20And I'm doing things
35:20very differently now.
35:21I'm taking my time.
35:23I'm not being impulsive.
35:24I have thought this through
35:25and I am really playing
35:26the long game here.
35:28Good.
35:29And we don't even know
35:30if Ava is gettable.
35:31I'm going to have to
35:33assess the situation
35:34for a fee.
35:35How much?
35:37A thousand will get you
35:38a trial run.
35:42Well, he is.
35:44It may be your way in.
35:49Sounds like we have a deal.
35:53Ray.
35:54Mom.
35:55Lucky.
35:55Do you have a minute?
35:57Oh, my goodness.
35:58For my son,
35:59who never visits
36:01anyone
36:02in their office
36:02ever?
36:03Yes, I have a minute
36:04for you.
36:04What's on your mind?
36:07Um...
36:07I just
36:09needed to tell you
36:10that, um...
36:11I'm sorry.
36:14I'm, uh...
36:15I'm gonna
36:16disappoint you
36:17again.
36:20You're leaving,
36:21aren't you?
36:23Nina, it's me
36:24calling again.
36:25Please call me back.
36:27I know that you're busy,
36:28but I need to talk to you.
36:29It's an emergency.
36:31I need to find Jacinda.
36:33Call me back.
36:36Damn it!
36:43I appreciate the warning,
36:45but I do think
36:46you're underestimating me.
36:47Oh, good.
36:49You know how I love it
36:50when people exceed
36:51my expectations.
36:52Go on.
36:53I can love
36:55Chase and be
36:55a good wife to him
36:56and build my relationship
36:57with my son.
36:59Yeah, I know that.
37:01It's the revenge
37:02I'm concerned about.
37:03Don't look at it
37:05as revenge, okay?
37:06Look at it as me
37:07being true to myself
37:08and doing what
37:09I feel is right
37:11and fair
37:12and just.
37:15Willow held her own
37:16better than I thought
37:18she would.
37:19Well, Willow may think
37:21she had the last word,
37:22but the judge
37:23will see right through her.
37:24Yeah, I hope you're right.
37:26There's still something
37:27that doesn't make sense
37:28to me, though.
37:29Willow said she came
37:30to see me
37:31in Germany.
37:32Are you sure
37:33she actually went?
37:34Jason convinced her to go.
37:36Right, then why did no one
37:37at the clinic
37:37tell me she was there?
37:41Mom, I can't thank you
37:42enough for your support.
37:44I really could not
37:45have gotten through
37:45this whole ordeal
37:46without you.
37:47Well, I would do anything
37:48for you, my daughter.
37:51I still can't believe
37:52Michael would lie
37:53about something
37:54Wiley said.
37:56It makes me even more
37:57certain I'm doing
37:58the right thing.
37:59As if Drew would ever
38:01say anything like that.
38:03Well, I hope you and Willow
38:04get the outcome
38:05that you're hoping.
38:05before, I did everything
38:06I could to make that happen.
38:08Yes, you did.
38:09And so did I.
38:11By staging that little
38:12other action for Wiley,
38:14I basically guaranteed
38:15that there'd be no
38:15compromise between
38:16Willow and Michael.
38:19Yeah, well, I guess
38:20when you're going up
38:20against the quarter mains,
38:21you've got to pull out
38:22all the stops.
38:23Absolutely.
38:24And because Willow's
38:25still strong,
38:27she's going to win.
38:32On the next
38:33general hospital.
38:33I heard something
38:34that I wasn't
38:35supposed to.
38:35You can trust me
38:36with this.
38:36Maybe it would be
38:38best for you
38:38to take a step back.
38:39This might need
38:40my services.
38:41Sooner than you
38:41might think.
38:42As soon as the truth
38:42came out,
38:43it was game over.
38:44I'm taking Wiley and
38:45Amelia and I'm leaving
38:45the country.
38:46I want to hire you.
