00:00upset you, okay?
00:04It's not your fault.
00:05No, it's my fault, okay?
00:07I shouldn't have suggested that we get back together too soon.
00:12Maybe it's too late.
00:14I meant what I said.
00:16I would love for us to give our relationship another chance more than anything.
00:23It's what I've wanted for so long.
00:26Then what's stopping you?
00:30I'm so glad you're here.
00:36Me too.
00:38I've been looking forward to this.
00:43Oh, I see you got a nice romantic setup going on over here.
00:49Oh, yes.
00:51There's more.
00:54I even broke out my best wine.
01:00For you.
01:08To what do I owe the pleasure?
01:10Well, I heard about your request to visit Valentin at Steinmauer.
01:14I just came here to tell you personally that it's been denied.
01:21Carly?
01:22Oh.
01:22I wasn't expecting you.
01:25Oh, I'm sure.
01:26Why are you doing everything in your power to avoid me?
01:29I tried to explain to Willow why I took the plea deal with the DA, but she wouldn't listen to me.
01:36She said she hated me.
01:38Well, it's not the first time she has said that, right?
01:45Well, I'm just saying that you have been here before with Willow.
01:51Yet I'm sure she didn't mean it.
01:53Why wouldn't she?
01:54She thinks that I recanted our alibi to save my own skin.
01:59It's obvious you didn't have any choice.
02:01The police had proof that you were not with Willow when Drew was shot.
02:06Right?
02:06So if you kept lying, you would have made Willow look even guiltier.
02:10You did what was best for both of you.
02:12But Willow doesn't see it that way.
02:14I'm not going to stop fighting for her, though.
02:17I need to get my daughter exonerated.
02:21Michael, wait.
02:23You okay, Jaclyn?
02:25It's just, well...
02:28I'm having second thoughts about working here at Crimson.
02:32Why?
02:34You clearly have an eye for fashion.
02:36I figured this would be a perfect fit.
02:38It would.
02:39Except the editor-in-chief is the person that paid me to drug Drew.
02:46Surprised to get your call?
02:48I thought you wouldn't want to be seen with the pariah of Port Charles.
02:52Any chance for being a tad melodramatic?
02:55Speaking of your lovely wife,
02:57she made it very clear that she didn't want me in her place of business.
03:01She's not going to like it that I'm here.
03:04Actually, Tracy,
03:05this was my idea.
03:11Ah, good evening, Miss Bard.
03:14Uh, Mr. Gray,
03:15nice to see you again.
03:17Well, I'm very sorry for intruding,
03:19but actually, I'm here on behalf of my client,
03:22Congressman Cain.
03:23Oh, if this is about the house,
03:25I've already told him it's not for sale.
03:28So I've heard.
03:30But I'm fairly confident I could change your mind.
03:34So, can I come in?
03:35I am not avoiding you.
03:48I am not avoiding you.
04:02Oh, really?
04:02Because you haven't returned any of my messages,
04:04and I had to find you through your assistant?
04:06I've been busy.
04:07What, scrolling on your phone?
04:09Okay.
04:10You found me.
04:11What is it?
04:12Make it quick,
04:12because I'm supposed to have dinner here with Jack.
04:15You're, you're having dinner with Brennan?
04:18Yeah.
04:19But I told you that he recruited Jocelyn to the WSB,
04:23and it doesn't seem like you confronted either of them yet.
04:26Because you told me not to.
04:27When do you listen to me?
04:31What are you up to?
04:34I thought I made it very clear to you
04:36that my conversation with Valentin was classified.
04:38I don't appreciate you trying to go around me.
04:42Well, here's the concept.
04:44Why don't we work together?
04:46Well, gee, that sounds swell,
04:48but, uh, unfortunately for both of us,
04:50I just don't trust you.
04:52Why not?
04:53Because you let your personal feelings
04:55creep into your work,
04:56and that's just bad for me.
04:57I'm the one that does that?
04:58Okay, all right.
05:00So, I know you desperately do not want this to be true,
05:03but you need me.
05:05You need me, Jack.
05:07Despite all your denials,
05:09whatever it is that you're investigating,
05:12it has something to do with Faison, right?
05:16And nobody knew that madman better than I did.
05:20So, why don't you let me help you?
05:22While I have many of the puzzle pieces,
05:24I'll admit,
05:24I don't know how they fit together yet.
05:27But Valentin does.
05:28He knows more than he's letting on.
05:29So, let me talk to him.
05:31I will get him to tell me everything.
05:33I love the color.
05:37Did you stain these walls yourself?
05:41I did.
05:43This place just feels so cozy and safe.
05:46Like you can run away from the world and just...
05:50be here.
05:52Yeah.
05:53Together.
05:54I keep thinking about our marriage
05:59and the reason it ended
06:01was because I kept a secret from you.
06:05And I can see now that I judged you
06:08way too harshly.
06:10Look, I can assure you going forward,
06:13it'll be different.
06:15Yes.
06:17It will.
06:19Because I refuse to make that same mistake again.
06:22What do you mean by that?
06:24First,
06:25there's something you should know.
06:30Portia's pregnant.
06:35I'd be pregnant.
06:37For months,
06:38we barely even said a word to each other.
06:40We've only been together...
06:41One time.
06:43It's all it takes.
06:45How could you possibly know this?
06:46I can't imagine Portia were confiding you.
06:50She didn't.
06:51And the truth is,
06:57I don't really know for sure.
07:00But at the quarter main party,
07:01I...
07:02I noticed something was off with her.
07:05She made a point to ask for herbal tea
07:07instead of caffeinated.
07:09And one bite of a mushroom cap
07:10sent her running out of the room.
07:13All signs pointed to pregnant.
07:15So I confronted her.
07:16What did she say?
07:20Oh, it's what she didn't say.
07:22I gave her the chance to flat out deny it,
07:27but she didn't.
07:28And she got all evasive and stormed out.
07:31Maybe something else is going on with her.
07:33It's definitely possible.
07:36But I'm nearly certain I'm right.
07:39This is a giant mess.
07:43I understand this...
07:44This need you feel to save Willow.
07:48But you need to be very careful
07:50about how you go about it.
07:52And take your fake alibi.
07:53It ended up hurting her, right?
07:56I know you don't have to remind me,
07:58but I need to do something.
08:01Maybe you don't, though.
08:03Alexis is an excellent attorney.
08:06If anybody can win Willow's case, it's her.
08:08I'm sorry, are you actually saying
08:10something nice about Alexis Davis?
08:14Look, I don't have any use for the woman.
08:17Right.
08:18But there is no denying her skill in the courtroom.
08:22The best way you can help Willow
08:23is to let Alexis do her job.
08:26And for God's sake, woman,
08:28don't do anything that can make things worse.
08:33Come in.
08:37Sorry to interrupt.
08:39Michael, what are you doing here?
08:43Well, I heard that Madison quit,
08:45so I heard you a new assistant.
08:47She's smart, knowledgeable about fashion,
08:50and the best part is that you already know her.
08:52Who is it?
08:53Hello, Nina.
08:56It's nice to see you again.
08:58Oh, no.
08:59Over my dead body.
09:02That's fine by me.
09:03If that's how you want it.
09:04I'm not up to anything.
09:10I just realized that, although I hate the situation
09:12that Jocelyn is in,
09:14there's nothing I can do about it.
09:15Oh, so you're just going to sit back and be quiet.
09:17No.
09:18Try again.
09:20Okay, Jason.
09:21Let's say I confront Jocelyn
09:22about being in the WSB.
09:23Do you really think she's going to listen to me?
09:26No.
09:26No.
09:27So why would I risk alienating her?
09:29She's just going to shut down on me.
09:32Okay, fine.
09:34What about Brennan?
09:35Why haven't you kicked that guy to the curb yet?
09:37Okay.
09:38I hate that man with every fiber in my being,
09:40but I can't break up with him.
09:42I can't afford to do that.
09:43Not yet.
09:44Okay.
09:44Why not?
09:47Because,
09:48as crazy as this sounds,
09:50Jack cares about me a great deal.
09:52So as long as we stay together,
09:54he has a strong incentive to keep my daughter safe.
09:57And that is the only thing I care about right now.
10:01What is stopping you, Jack?
10:02Like, really?
10:03What is it, your ego?
10:05Because I'll let you run the show.
10:07I'll get whatever information I can from Valentin,
10:10and you get to use it however you want.
10:11My ego is not the issue.
10:15The issue is your loyalty to your ex-lover.
10:18I have not forgotten the fact that you were the one to let him get away.
10:20I'm not trying to help Valentin escape.
10:24I'm trying to help you stop
10:26whatever impending crisis is about to explode on the global stage.
10:31Well, as much as I'd like to believe that, Anna,
10:34you're going to have to earn my trust.
10:37All right.
10:38How am I meant to do that?
10:40To be determined.
10:41In the meantime, I will tell you this.
10:51Faison is mixed up in this somehow.
10:54And one thing Valentin did say
10:55is that there was a connection between Faison and Jen Sidwell.
11:00What?
11:01That's all the information I'm going to give you now.
11:03Jack!
11:04Have a good night, Anna.
11:04I don't know what's going on here,
11:13but my fight-or-flight response is triggered.
11:17Mother, just hear us out.
11:18You've got 30 seconds.
11:20Okay.
11:20Tracy, as you know,
11:22I come from a big Italian family
11:23where everyone has a strong opinion,
11:26so I am no stranger to family feuds.
11:30Who are you talking to?
11:32The Quartermains used to do battle on a daily basis.
11:35Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
11:35But with all due respect,
11:37I think that maybe my family had a slightly healthier way
11:42of working out our issues.
11:44I am not holding hands and singing Kumbaya with anyone.
11:48Everybody draws the line somewhere.
11:53All I'm saying is we would wait
11:55until the tempers died down
11:58before we looked for a road to peace.
12:01And I'm thinking that maybe
12:03I could help you guys do that.
12:05I already told Brooklyn
12:07I'm not making peace with Ronnie Bard.
12:12Then you are making a huge tactical error.
12:16Your grandfather would be ashamed of you.
12:20May I offer you something to drink?
12:22No, thank you.
12:23Actually, I'm fine.
12:26What the hell are you doing here?
12:28You said we shouldn't be seen together.
12:29I have a perfectly legitimate reason
12:31for coming to see you.
12:33Really?
12:33And if somebody walks in?
12:34Stop.
12:35Don't worry.
12:36Unless one of us does something stupid,
12:39they're never going to figure out
12:40what working together.
12:41This is exactly what I needed.
12:48Well, it's my pleasure to see
12:51that your needs are always real.
13:02Damn.
13:03He's in the hospital.
13:04This is Dr. Gannon.
13:12When?
13:17Okay.
13:18Yeah.
13:19I'm on my way.
13:23I wouldn't feel right about us moving forward
13:25without you having all of the facts.
13:28I appreciate that.
13:29Well, this baby obviously changes everything.
13:34Yeah, I suppose it does.
13:39Portia and I certainly have a lot to discuss.
13:41I'm sure you do.
13:43Just know that whatever decision you make,
13:48I'll understand.
13:51Do you really think that you can fake
13:54a relationship with Jack Brayden?
13:56For my daughter's sake, absolutely.
13:57But for how long?
14:00I don't know.
14:01Until I can make sure that she is safe
14:03and out of the WSB.
14:04I have to stay close to Jack.
14:06That way I can keep tabs on Jocelyn.
14:08Okay, I'm just going to say this.
14:09It's dangerous.
14:10If Brennan figures out you're playing
14:12and this whole thing can blow up in your face.
14:13Fuck.
14:14Then I have to make sure he does it.
14:19Jason.
14:20I, uh...
14:21I didn't know you'd be joining us.
14:23Oh, he's definitely not joining us.
14:25He was just keeping me company
14:26until you got here.
14:27Well, you guys seemed like
14:35you were having an intense conversation
14:36when I walked up.
14:38Yes.
14:39He was giving me an earful
14:41about you.
14:44Imagine that.
14:46And what was Mr. Morgan saying about me this time?
14:50Well, I'm going to skedaddle
14:51and let you guys talk business.
14:53No, no.
14:54You're going to stay
14:55because this isn't going to take long.
14:58Jacinda is not going to be my assistant
15:01because I refused to work with her.
15:03Why?
15:04It was my understanding
15:06that the last time you two collaborated
15:07it was
15:08quite a big success.
15:11And then she tried to double-cross me.
15:13I'm so sorry about that, Nina.
15:15I was way out of line.
15:17Well, thank you.
15:18It's still going to be a big no from me
15:21because I don't trust you.
15:23Especially now that you're lying
15:24to protect Michael.
15:27What is it that you think
15:28I'm lying about?
15:30Oh, please.
15:32You provided him an alibi
15:34for Drew's shooting
15:36which is clearly fabricated.
15:39No, actually, Nina,
15:40I believe you were the one
15:43who provided a false alibi.
15:44That's why you testified in court.
15:46I was trying to protect my daughter
15:48who, by the way,
15:49is only in this mess because of you.
15:51Well, she shot Drew, so...
15:53No, Michael, you shot Drew
15:56and then you framed Willow.
16:00Daddy never cared about making peace.
16:02Why would he be ashamed of me?
16:04Because you are playing this all wrong.
16:07Possession is nine-tenths of the law.
16:10By getting yourself kicked out of the house,
16:13you've surrendered too much ground
16:16and rendered yourself powerless.
16:18So in order to fix that,
16:19you need to pretend to make peace.
16:23Talk with Ronnie.
16:24Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
16:25I thought we were here
16:26to convince Tracy
16:27to actually make real peace.
16:29Shush!
16:31Ned's making a point
16:32and for once it's a really good one.
16:33Now, it doesn't matter
16:34who drugged Ronnie.
16:36What matters is that
16:37you got outmaneuvered.
16:39You gave Ronnie
16:41a perfect excuse
16:43to get rid of you
16:43and she took it.
16:45So,
16:45you need to stop playing her game.
16:49Get back in the house.
16:50Start playing your game.
16:55I don't think
16:57even if I grubble
16:58she's gonna let me come back.
17:01We'll increase your chances
17:02by going with you
17:03so you'll have an audience.
17:07She has positioned herself
17:10as the benevolent queen.
17:12So, if I prostrate myself
17:16in front of you
17:17she'll have no choice.
17:19She'll have to invite me back.
17:20Exactly.
17:23I have to admit
17:24it's genius.
17:27Thank you, Mother.
17:28Yo!
17:29Schemers!
17:31This is not
17:32remotely what I had in mind.
17:34No, it is much
17:38too risky for you
17:38to be here.
17:39You have to go now.
17:40Oh, come on now, Veronica.
17:42You mustn't be rude
17:43after all.
17:45If I hadn't reached out
17:47you'd still be
17:48waiting on tables
17:49in Durham.
17:52I know you think
17:53that's an insult.
17:55But I was
17:56perfectly happy
17:58working in the diner.
17:59Okay, okay.
18:00Maybe so.
18:01I stand corrected.
18:02All right?
18:02Come on.
18:04Honestly.
18:05You can't tell me
18:06you haven't started
18:07to enjoy the comforts
18:09of being quarter main?
18:11Oh, yeah.
18:12For better or worse
18:14money changes everything.
18:16Ah, just like I thought.
18:19Unless you forget
18:20the house
18:21your newfound fortune
18:24none of it would be yours
18:26if it wasn't for me.
18:29Because
18:30as we both know
18:32Monica didn't write you
18:35into her will
18:36I did.
18:41Nina, I know
18:42you are worried
18:43about Willow
18:44but
18:44you really shouldn't
18:46throw around
18:46baseless accusations
18:47like that.
18:49Baseless?
18:49Did you read
18:50the Port Charles Press
18:51this morning?
18:52It practically
18:53begged the police department
18:54to take a closer
18:55look at you.
18:56Oh, it's funny.
18:57I don't recall seeing
18:57my name in print.
18:58It was implied.
19:00Strongly implied.
19:03Well, look,
19:03none of this should affect
19:04Jacinda's employment here.
19:05You have no reason
19:06not to trust her.
19:08She is an escort.
19:10And you were just prosecuted
19:15for providing false statements
19:16to the police.
19:18Now, let's over here
19:19to Aurora Media.
19:20We are more than happy
19:21to stand behind you
19:22despite your criminal record.
19:25But Nina,
19:25if you can't provide
19:26that same kind of grace
19:27that Jacinda...
19:27Actually,
19:28I don't see
19:29why Nina would object.
19:32And she is a big believer
19:34in second chances.
19:35And she was just telling me
19:37how swamped she is.
19:39A new assistant
19:40is just what she needs.
19:43Is that right, Nina?
19:45That's right.
19:49If Jacinda wants
19:50to be my assistant,
19:52yes!
19:54I will try
19:55to make it work.
19:57Well, that's great.
20:00Ava, I think maybe
20:01we should give them
20:02some time alone
20:03so they can discuss
20:03Jacinda's new job, yeah?
20:05Yeah!
20:08I love you.
20:09We'll talk later.
20:11Let me know
20:12if you're in any problems, okay?
20:14Thanks, Michael.
20:24I forgot to ask Michael.
20:27Does the job come with dental?
20:35Ma, I'll come in.
20:41I need your help.
20:42Oh.
20:44Are we speaking again?
20:46Well, I didn't like
20:47that you manipulated me
20:48to go to the Five Poppies.
20:50Because, honestly,
20:51I...
20:52I thought that we, uh,
20:55had a better friendship
20:55than that.
20:56You know,
20:57Jac had me cornered.
20:58Well, he did.
20:59If I were to tell you
21:00anything about the WSB
21:01operations in Croatia,
21:02I would have been
21:03committing treason.
21:05Treason, right.
21:05But you know
21:06that would never be an issue
21:07because I would never talk.
21:09I would never give you up, Anna.
21:11You know that.
21:12I know.
21:13I should have trusted that.
21:17I apologize.
21:21What is it that you need
21:22my help with?
21:24Jocelyn.
21:26I need to find a way
21:27to get her out of the WSB.
21:30I'm sorry, Portia.
21:32The patient at the hospital
21:34was just declared brain dead
21:35after a car accident.
21:38The victim's an organ donor,
21:39so they need me
21:40to do the procurement.
21:41Well, saving lives
21:43that outweighs my need
21:45to hide out with you
21:45in your cabin.
21:47I'll go with you.
21:48No way.
21:50This situation
21:50doesn't require
21:51the co-chief of staff
21:52to give up
21:53her entire evening.
21:55I got this.
21:57You stay.
21:58Enjoy dinner.
22:00With any luck,
22:01I'll be back
22:02later tonight.
22:04But if not,
22:06this is for you.
22:11You're going to give me
22:12a key.
22:13Of course.
22:14This is our special getaway.
22:15I don't expect you
22:41to make any promises.
22:42I get that your
22:44first priority now
22:45is this baby,
22:47so I can
22:48wait until you
22:49figure things out.
22:52Let me just say
22:53what you did here tonight.
22:56It proves once again
22:57how amazing
22:58of a woman you are.
23:01Thank you for your honesty.
23:03I wonder how long
23:12Portia knew about this.
23:15Why wouldn't she tell me?
23:19I don't know.
23:20Maybe
23:20she didn't want to tell you
23:22until the end
23:23of her first trimester.
23:25Or maybe
23:25she wasn't
23:26ever going to tell me.
23:28You know,
23:28it wouldn't be the first time
23:29she did that.
23:30Yeah, but she
23:31can't hide her
23:32pregnancy forever.
23:33She would have to tell you
23:34at some point.
23:36Given that we just
23:37decided to get a divorce,
23:40maybe she doesn't
23:42intend to have the baby.
23:43If that's the case,
23:44I've got to find
23:45Portia immediately.
23:47I'm sorry, George.
23:48That's okay.
23:49Let's go.
23:49I'm so confused.
23:59I thought you liked Ronnie.
24:00I do.
24:01But that doesn't
24:02necessarily mean
24:03that I trust her.
24:05She's a little too
24:06good to be true.
24:07You could have said
24:08that a little sooner.
24:09Would have been nice
24:10to have someone
24:11on my side.
24:12Okay, I think
24:13you're both really mean.
24:14I think Ronnie Bart
24:15is good people.
24:16I can see
24:20why my son
24:21loves you so much.
24:22You have such
24:23a big heart
24:24and you are
24:25hopelessly naive.
24:26I am the exact
24:27perfect amount
24:28of naive.
24:31Sorry, I'm late
24:32to the meeting.
24:33Oh, this is
24:34a much bigger
24:35ambush
24:36than I thought.
24:38We're just concerned
24:38about you, Tracy.
24:40Well, no need to be
24:41because thanks
24:42to my son,
24:43I've seen the light.
24:46Come on, Ronnie.
24:47The simple fact is
24:48if I hadn't forged
24:49Monica's will,
24:50you'd be stuck
24:51waiting on tables
24:52for the rest
24:53of your life
24:54because after all,
24:55the only thing
24:56your sister
24:57actually left you
24:58was a locket.
25:00And if
25:01that had been
25:02the only thing
25:03that I inherited
25:04from Monica,
25:05I would have been
25:06perfectly satisfied.
25:08Oh.
25:08I don't need
25:09this house
25:10or the money.
25:11I know, I know,
25:11I know, you made
25:12it perfectly clear
25:13the first time
25:14I pitched you
25:14my idea on the phone.
25:16I remember,
25:17you shot me down
25:18with extreme prejudice,
25:19very noble.
25:20And you know something?
25:21I didn't think
25:22anything on this earth
25:24could change your mind
25:25until you met Tracy.
25:28She treated me
25:30like dirt.
25:31I know, I told you,
25:32that's just who she is.
25:34You're right.
25:35She's rude.
25:36She's obnoxious.
25:38She's selfish,
25:39she's condescending.
25:40All right, so we're
25:41on common ground here.
25:42Hell, I remember
25:43the night you called
25:44me back.
25:45You were so pissed off,
25:47you could barely
25:48spit the words out.
25:49And you know something?
25:51I don't blame you.
25:52Not one bit.
25:53Not then, not now.
25:55Because the simple fact
25:56is all of this,
25:58the quarter main thing
26:00makes Tracy a monster.
26:01She lives to hurt people,
26:03which is why
26:05you should feel
26:06totally justified
26:07in reaching out
26:08and taking something
26:09that she does not deserve.
26:11Well, I agree with you
26:13if this were just
26:14about Tracy.
26:15But the rest of the family
26:17has been so kind
26:18and wonder,
26:18and I hate deceiving them.
26:21The rest of the family
26:21is going to be fine.
26:23It's not like
26:23they need the money.
26:24Well, that's not the point.
26:27This house
26:28should not be mine.
26:30And it's not going to be.
26:32For long, anyway,
26:34because you
26:35are going to sell
26:36to Drew Kane.
26:41Ever since Jason
26:42came back from Croatia
26:44with Britt,
26:44he keeps telling me again
26:46that I can't trust you.
26:48Ah.
26:49Does he say why?
26:50No.
26:51I just think it's Britt
26:52rubbing off on him.
26:53I mean,
26:53that woman loves
26:54to cause trouble
26:55and she's really good at it.
26:57Hmm.
26:58Well, that's a shame.
27:00I'd hope Jason
27:01had learned
27:01to accept
27:02that you and I
27:02are together.
27:03Me too.
27:05I hate fighting with him
27:06and I keep telling him
27:08that you're such a good man.
27:10Well,
27:10I wouldn't go that far.
27:12You've done so much
27:12for me and my family.
27:14I mean,
27:15Lulu was just telling me
27:16how much Charlotte
27:16enjoyed her visit,
27:18the one that you arranged
27:19with Valentin.
27:20Well,
27:21I was happy to do it.
27:22Lulu said it went well.
27:23Yes,
27:23very much.
27:25Although I doubt
27:26Lulu's going to let
27:27Charlotte visit again.
27:31And why is that?
27:32I hate the fact
27:35that Jocelyn
27:35is working
27:35for the WSB at all.
27:37But you and I,
27:38we agreed that
27:39she's an adult,
27:40you know,
27:40she gets to make
27:40her own decisions.
27:41Yeah,
27:41and I want to respect that.
27:43I do,
27:44but she almost died
27:45in Croatia
27:46and I can't let
27:46anything like that
27:47happen again.
27:48I need her safe
27:49and so does Carly.
27:50Yeah,
27:50but we can't extricate her.
27:53Her leaving,
27:54that has to be her choice.
27:55we could try
27:57to get her out
27:58from under Jack's
27:59supervision
28:00because he's notorious
28:01for always taking
28:02the most dangerous
28:03assignments.
28:04If she's no longer
28:05working for him,
28:06then maybe her next
28:08assignment would be
28:09safer.
28:11And if that's
28:12all we can do
28:13right now,
28:14I'll take it.
28:17How do we make it happen?
28:19No!
28:21Yes!
28:22No!
28:22Yes!
28:23No!
28:24Monica would never
28:25have wanted me
28:27to sell this house
28:28to anyone
28:29but just Drew Kane.
28:31I am not going
28:32to sell this house
28:33out from under
28:34the family.
28:34Ronnie,
28:35Ronnie,
28:35listen to me,
28:36okay?
28:36Each and every one
28:38of them could easily
28:39afford their own place.
28:40As a matter of fact,
28:41they'd probably be healthier.
28:43No.
28:44Monica loved this house
28:46and she loved
28:48the fact
28:49that her whole family
28:50was here with her.
28:52I am not
28:53going against
28:55her wishes.
28:56You mean except
28:56for the part
28:57where you swipe
28:58it for yourself?
28:59Yeah, well,
29:00that was your doing.
29:04Why is it so important
29:06you to sell
29:06the house to Drew?
29:08Man,
29:08that's a pompous ass.
29:10Because that pompous
29:12ass is my client.
29:16And when this house
29:17goes to Drew Kane,
29:19it's going to drive
29:20Tracy absolutely nuts,
29:22which is a spectacular bonus.
29:25And it's a good reason
29:27for you to want
29:27to do it too.
29:29Boy,
29:30I can't stand the woman,
29:31but you have really
29:34got it in for her.
29:36Tracy Quartermain
29:37nearly destroyed my life
29:39for fun.
29:40She had me arrested.
29:42She had me jailed
29:44for months
29:44and she took it
29:45upon herself
29:46out of pure spite
29:47to unite
29:48my bitter ex-wives
29:49just so they could
29:51collectively take me
29:52for everything
29:53I have.
29:55Well,
29:55you know what they say
29:56about payback?
29:58This doesn't stop
29:59until Tracy
30:00loses everything
30:01she has.
30:02As a matter of fact,
30:03I gotta tell you,
30:05the other night
30:05when you tossed her
30:06out on her butt,
30:08as far as I'm concerned,
30:10that's just the beginning.
30:11Wait a minute.
30:13You were at that
30:14tea party
30:15for a while.
30:17So?
30:18How could I have been
30:21such an idiot?
30:24Tracy didn't spike
30:25my drink.
30:26You did!
30:27You set this
30:28whole thing up!
30:31Do you trust Ronnie?
30:33Or do you agree
30:34with these two
30:34that there's something off?
30:36Jury's still out for me.
30:38But I do think
30:39Tracy apologizing
30:40to Ronnie,
30:42whether she means it
30:43or not,
30:45is a good idea.
30:45You belong in that house.
30:50Apparently the only one
30:51who doesn't know that
30:52is Ms. Bard.
30:53Okay,
30:54that's gonna need some work.
30:55Tracy,
30:55you need to be
30:56in that house
30:57to keep an eye on Ronnie,
30:58not to undermine her.
30:59You hear what he said?
31:00Not to undermine her.
31:02And hopefully,
31:03you'll see that she is
31:04who she appears to be,
31:05and if she's not,
31:07then we'll deal with it
31:08as a family.
31:10Sounds like a plan.
31:12Why don't we head over there
31:13and put it into action?
31:15Wait, what?
31:16No, you wanna do this tonight?
31:18We haven't even had dinner.
31:21You need to save room
31:22for all the humble pie
31:23you're about to eat.
31:25You drugged me
31:27knowing full well
31:28that I was gonna blame Tracy.
31:31Okay.
31:32When I heard
31:33that Tracy was attending
31:35the tea party,
31:36I grew concerned
31:38that she was softening
31:40towards you.
31:42No, she wasn't.
31:43Yeah, well,
31:44I didn't know that,
31:44and I couldn't take
31:45the chance, could I?
31:47Come too far.
31:49I can't turn back now.
31:51I will do
31:52everything
31:54and anything
31:56to get
31:57my revenge
31:58on Tracy.
32:00Yeah, I got that.
32:02Look,
32:02as much as I despise her,
32:04this has gone too far.
32:05this charade
32:07cannot continue.
32:09Stop!
32:14Now, you listen to me,
32:16Veronica.
32:17you're not gonna breathe
32:21so much as a word
32:22of this
32:22to anyone
32:24because, you see,
32:25you can't.
32:27Up to this point,
32:28my hands are clean.
32:30Nothing can be traced
32:31back to me,
32:32but you,
32:33on the other hand,
32:33you pull the plug now.
32:35You're basically
32:36admitting to fraud.
32:38in the best-case scenario,
32:40you newfound family,
32:41they never speak
32:42to you again.
32:43Worst-case scenario,
32:45you go to prison.
32:48So,
32:49not only are you
32:51going to keep
32:52your mouth
32:52shut,
32:54you
32:55are gonna sell
32:58this house
32:58to Drew King.
33:02So,
33:03help me,
33:04God,
33:04if you don't,
33:05I'll take away
33:06everything you have,
33:08including your freedom.
33:09An unexpected delivery
33:29will change everything.
33:33Yeah,
33:34no kidding.
33:39Gannon,
33:50I'm looking for my wife now.
33:53Where is she?
33:54I'm looking for my wife now.
34:25Portia,
34:26how are you?
34:26It's been a while.
34:27It has.
34:29Um,
34:29can I ask you something
34:30really quickly?
34:31Where are you right now?
34:33I am at
34:33the Metro Court Restaurant.
34:35Why?
34:37I need to see you.
34:38It's important.
34:40We have to figure out
34:41the details of Jack's offer
34:42and make sure
34:43that it is brought
34:44to a swift
34:45and successful conclusion
34:47because the sooner
34:48it's over
34:49than the sooner
34:50that Jocelyn is safe.
34:51Well,
34:52we know it has to do
34:52with Britt
34:53and whatever was going
34:54out of the five poppies.
34:56We also know
34:57something else.
34:58Jack just informed me
35:00that
35:00somehow
35:04Faison is involved
35:06and so is Jen Sidwell.
35:13Charlotte loved her visit,
35:15absolutely.
35:16Lulu just doesn't think
35:17it's feasible
35:18to fly back and forth
35:19to Switzerland.
35:20She thinks it's too disruptive
35:21for Charlotte's life
35:22here in Port Charles.
35:23Well,
35:25that is unfortunate.
35:28I didn't get everything
35:29I need from Valentin.
35:31Yes,
35:32you did mention that.
35:34I know that
35:35if I can arrange
35:35more visits with Charlotte,
35:37that Valentin
35:38will cooperate.
35:40Well,
35:41are there any
35:42WSB prisons
35:43here in the U.S.?
35:45There are.
35:47Why?
35:48Well,
35:49I don't know.
35:49I was just thinking
35:50that maybe you
35:51and Valentin
35:52can both get
35:52what you want.
35:55All you have to do
35:56is move them
35:56closer to home.
36:01And I want you here
36:02at 6.45 a.m. sharp.
36:06Got it.
36:07Anything else?
36:11Yes.
36:12Actually.
36:14How much is Michael
36:16paying you
36:17to be his alibi?
36:18Michael's not
36:20paying me anything.
36:22Well,
36:23I certainly hope
36:23you're not lying
36:24for him for free.
36:26Well,
36:26I can see why
36:27you'd be suspicious.
36:29But the truth is,
36:31Michael and I
36:32were together
36:33the night
36:33Congressman Cain
36:34was shot.
36:36And since then,
36:37we've developed
36:38a promising
36:39relationship.
36:43You're good.
36:44No,
36:44you're really,
36:45really good.
36:46Whatever Michael's
36:46paying you
36:47isn't enough.
36:48I can remedy
36:52that.
36:53What are you doing?
36:55Well,
36:56Jacinda,
36:56I am a very
36:57wealthy woman
36:58and my
36:59innocent daughter
37:01is facing
37:02prison time
37:03and
37:03no price
37:06is too high
37:08to exonerate
37:09her.
37:09what are you doing
37:31here?
37:32Mother has
37:33something that
37:33she'd like to
37:34say to you.
37:34I don't think
37:38this is a good
37:38time.
37:38She looks busy.
37:40Tracy,
37:41what is it?
37:44Today's good.
37:48Well,
37:49for the good
37:55of the family,
37:56I would like to
37:58bury the hatchet
37:59and start over.
38:03Oh,
38:04well,
38:06I agree with that.
38:07I think we could
38:10all use
38:11a fresh start,
38:13which is why
38:17I have decided
38:18to
