02:53drown your sorrows
02:55um
03:15i thought you were
03:25gonna drop it off at bobby's
03:27actually i was i thought you might want to celebrate though and go to the brown dog but after hearing the day you just described maybe we should do it another time
03:34no absolutely not let's go get that baby out on the open road
03:37hold on as the co-signer of the loan
03:40uh i would rather you not crash your new car speeding from the hospital to the barn
03:44oh stop being so dramatic that won't happen
03:46i know
03:47because i'm driving
03:49jason real estate law
03:53yeah
03:55yeah
03:57yeah i
03:58did you come here straight from work
04:01why
04:03well
04:04i mean you look great
04:07it's just a little more casual than i i thought the da's office had a stricter dress code
04:12it's
04:12oh right
04:13no yes they do
04:15um but i i just stopped home to freshen up
04:18oh
04:19um so
04:20why are you asking about real estate law
04:23because
04:24ronnie
04:26is looking to sell this place and i've got to figure out a way to stop that from happening
04:30she's
04:32wow
04:33yeah she just decided
04:35i mean
04:36this family
04:37has had this house for
04:38for generations
04:39think about all the memories that
04:40that have been made
04:41in here
04:42you know
04:43it
04:43the cues can't lose out on all that
04:46there's definitely a lot of history here
04:50i just don't understand why she'd do this
04:53you know
04:53one second she's
04:55she's
04:56sitting there giving me her recipe for
04:58cinnamon rolls
04:59and then the next second she's
05:01handing out eviction notices to everyone
05:03it's
05:03this
05:04this can't be legal
05:05right
05:05i mean if ronnie is the legal owner of the house
05:10she has the right to sell it
05:12i don't know there's gonna be a loophole or something
05:14look i know it's a long shot but you
05:16you're an amazing lawyer
05:18do you think you could look into it
05:20what are you gonna do with a house that big
05:24when the only people who can stand you are
05:28mr licksbiddle here
05:30and your girlfriend who's currently in pennville for shooting you
05:34just go
05:35okay
05:36now
05:37yeah
05:38she's right
05:39come on there's a table calling her name
05:40you're only getting what you deserve tracy
05:42and this
05:43is just the beginning
05:45i stopped by the quarter mains house because i wanted to introduce myself to ronnie bard
05:55and i walked in on drew
05:57threatening danny
05:59and rocco
06:01i'll take care of it
06:03no
06:03no no no please you can't do that because
06:06you'd be playing right into drew's hands
06:08what do you mean
06:09i took care of it
06:10okay
06:11i shut it down
06:12i really did
06:12and i think i kept it from escalating
06:15but what i mean is that
06:16it's just that he was being overtly
06:18aggressive
06:19with the boys
06:21and i know
06:22i thought right now he'd be directing most of his attention to exonerating willow
06:27but he's not
06:29he's he's got this swaggering confidence about him
06:33it's like
06:33it's like he knows he's untouchable
06:36i don't get that
06:37i do
06:38i don't hold any great esteem for sunny
06:42and when i was commissioner
06:44every time we tried to bring him to justice
06:46we'd get nowhere
06:47he definitely knows how to hide a paper trail
06:50he'll ask the least of it
06:51he's smart
06:52and he's got a great deal of goodwill from a number of powerful players in the city
06:56the mayor
06:57not least among them
07:00then you agree
07:00mayor collins is protecting him
07:03go ahead tell me
07:06when and where did jordan tell you
07:08i was at jordan's apartment
07:10we were having dinner
07:12so
07:15is it true
07:17yes curtis i'm pregnant
07:21sunny and mayor collins have a strong relationship for sure
07:28but i wouldn't say she's protecting him
07:31she has way too much integrity
07:33at the very least one would call their close relationship a conflict of interest
07:39maybe
07:40but part of their relationship stems from sunny's charitable work on behalf of the city
07:45yes
07:46yes i've heard all about it
07:48the hospital wings
07:50the highway beautification projects
07:51the fundraisers
07:52the list goes on
07:54exactly
07:55exactly
07:56sunny's no ordinary criminal
07:58he's done a lot of good for the city of port charles and because of that
08:02a lot of people in high places have his back
08:05so
08:08what you're saying is
08:10we are dealing with a man who doesn't make mistakes
08:13and even if he did
08:14no one would be willing to turn on him
08:16not because they fear him
08:19but because they like him
08:21yeah
08:22but he's spoiled
08:23he expects people to like him
08:26and that overconfidence
08:30could end up being his weakness
08:33how far along are you
08:42about 10 weeks
08:45and how long have you known
08:48i've known for sure for um
08:52maybe three
08:54three weeks
08:55that's long enough in my book
08:57you want to know why i didn't tell you sooner
08:59i want to know why you didn't tell me at all
09:01well for one we're falling apart
09:03and secondly i didn't know what i wanted
09:07you didn't know what you wanted
09:09so that's the reason why you didn't tell me
09:11because you were considering terminating the pregnancy
09:14no even though this pregnancy was a surprise
09:16i never considered that as an option
09:19okay
09:22okay
09:23we got a lot to figure out
09:25actually we don't
09:28look i get we just decided to get a divorce
09:30at the worst possible time
09:32but i am that child's father
09:35and you can't cut me out
09:38you want the da's office to look into a private real estate deal
09:43it's not really something that falls under our purview
09:47we focus on criminal matters
09:48i mean this could be a criminal matter
09:51like i said this happened way too fast
09:53why
09:54what's with that
09:55i don't know maybe you could look into
09:57freezing the cell
09:59while you investigate it
10:01my guess is that
10:03ronnie wants to go home
10:05and get on with her life
10:07and so when she found a buyer
10:10who could afford this house
10:11which can't be easy
10:13she sold it
10:15i know how much the house means to you
10:18and i'm sorry i can't do something to stop it
10:20i'm telling you something about this deal of shady
10:22why else would she be selling to drew
10:25did you see the look of pure devastation on tracy's face right now
10:33makes every single penny i'm spending on that house worth it
10:38yeah
10:38most definitely worth the price of admission
10:41oh no one thing i didn't count on
10:45was poor lou having to pick up the pieces
10:47of tracy's decimation
10:49you know maybe i should buy her a drink
10:50speaking of picking up the pieces
10:51you really came through on the sale of this house
10:54like when i tried to cozy up to ronnie
10:56i got nowhere
10:57what did you do to make her change her mind
10:59oh uh
11:00it was uh really quite simple
11:04i yeah i simply told her that you know
11:06the easiest way to get back a tracy
11:07was just to sell the estate to you
11:09and after she heard that she was all over it
11:12between valentine and drew
11:17martin has quite the client list
11:19birds of a feather i guess
11:21martin and drew are corrupt bottom feeders
11:25who left decency behind the minute they exited the crib
11:29if they had anything to start with
11:31speaking of corrupt people with no decency
11:36guess who rocco had dinner with
11:39who
11:40brit
11:41and leesel
11:43and nathan was there but he's not corrupt
11:45i'm surprised you allowed
11:47i didn't
11:48neither did dante
11:49the only reason i found out about the dinner
11:51is because nathan mentioned it to me
11:53because he thought i already knew
11:54rocco didn't tell you himself
11:56no
11:56and rocco told nathan that he checked with us
11:59and we okayed it
12:00so rocco's the wild card here
12:04my wild card is supposed to be honest
12:07he is and i understand you being upset but you'll talk to him and you will remember that he is
12:12basically honest and decent
12:15two qualities that are very hard to come by these days
12:19i don't know how but
12:22drew will get what's coming to him
12:25i so hope i get to be part of it
12:28and i wouldn't blame you one bit
12:30but when it comes to dealing with men like drew
12:35sometimes you've got to choose your battles
12:37and in some cases your battlefields
12:40so you're saying that a crowded bar is not the place to go head to head
12:44that's right
12:46you have to wait
12:48and when he's not looking
12:50then you get up
12:52if only i had followed your sage advice in the first place
12:57my family wouldn't be in the situation that they are in
13:00ronnie sold
13:02our home
13:04to the family's
13:05worst possible enemy
13:08and i drove her to it
13:11i have no doubt
13:15that drew
13:16will suddenly remember
13:19that it was michael who shot him
13:21there's no low that he wouldn't sink to
13:25to have
13:26the charges against willow drummed
13:28he would do anything to hurt your campaign
13:31in his mind
13:33pinning this on michael
13:35kills two birds with one stone
13:37but uh looking for us
13:42he's not the one prosecuting the case
13:44he didn't bring the charges against her
13:47and he can't drop them out
13:48you excuse me
13:51i got something i gotta take care of
13:52of course
13:54i would agree
13:59that the best way to take down sonny would be if he somehow
14:02slipped up and incriminated himself
14:05right
14:05but he's not gonna let that happen
14:08but
14:08if sonny thinks he's truly untouchable
14:11maybe he starts to get a little too comfortable
14:14around the wrong people
14:15there was someone who managed to get close to him before
14:19but
14:20that didn't end well for them
14:22what happened
14:24well it was before my time with the pcpd
14:27and it involved dante falconeri
14:29he went undercover in sonny's organization
14:33and managed to get some evidence against him
14:35but then his cover was blown
14:38and he took a bullet to the chest
14:40courtesy
14:42of sonny
14:43sonny shot him
14:45mm-hmm
14:46and dante's only alive today
14:48because there was some kind of revelation
14:50and sonny found out that dante was his son
14:53i held off on telling you that i was pregnant
15:06because it's still very early
15:08and given my age
15:10miscarriages they're not uncommon
15:12are you okay has there been an issue with the baby
15:16everything seems to be progressing
15:19as it should
15:20okay
15:22well thank god
15:23i'd like to make it through the first trimester
15:26before we make any other decisions
15:28or tell anyone
15:30including trino
15:32you want me to keep this from our daughter
15:34until we know that there's actually going to be a baby
15:37okay
15:39um
15:40are you sure you want to do this alone
15:43especially if you're not feeling well
15:46i'll be fine
15:48but i don't want to get trina's hopes up about
15:51being a sibling
15:52not if it all might just
15:55go away
15:57ronnie wants to sell the house
16:01this house to drew
16:03doesn't she know what a sleazebag he is
16:06oh she knows
16:07i told her myself
16:08plus she had front row seats
16:11when drew showed up and
16:13bullied danny and rocco
16:15wait so ronnie saw that happen
16:18and still agreed to sell to him
16:19i know that things haven't been great
16:21between her and tracy
16:22they've been
16:23they've been bad
16:24but she gets along great with everybody else
16:27and i don't understand why she would want to hurt
16:30done like this
16:31i'm telling you something about this deal just isn't adding up
16:35i mean what you're describing
16:37definitely seems
16:38odd
16:40but
16:41on its face it's not illegal
16:43well it should be
16:44i mean think about the kids
16:46this is their home
16:47what would happen to you
16:50what if drew buys this place
16:52oh
16:52i'd be
16:53so fired
16:54i'd probably quit first
16:57but
16:58before then
16:59i'd have to
17:00make sure i get the horses to new stables
17:02don't want tracy
17:03and the rest of the family
17:05to have to worry about that
17:05with everything else going on
17:07well don't you think
17:08they'd be worried about you too
17:09eh
17:11i'll be alright
17:12you know
17:13most of my life
17:15i've
17:15been by myself
17:17know how to take care of myself
17:19i'm not gonna lie though
17:21i'm gonna miss this place
17:23it was a great gig
17:25the queues are even better people
17:28any idea what you'd do next
17:33where you'd go
17:34i don't know
17:35i don't know
17:37maybe
17:38maybe
17:38make another run at the
17:40stunt circuit
17:41or you know what
17:42i'd be an outback
17:43and just pack up the car
17:44and see where the road takes us
17:46well
17:46what about your family
17:48you can't just leave them
17:49yeah we get it
17:50gotta make a living right
17:52plus we'd keep in touch
17:54it wouldn't be the same
17:55no don't do that
17:56over the years
17:59i
17:59questioned
18:01my brother's decision
18:02to build that house
18:03and give it to monica
18:04yes you did
18:06well i came to see
18:08the wisdom of it
18:09monica was definitely
18:10the anchor
18:10of our family
18:11don't look now
18:13congressman kiddin
18:14i'm a sidekick
18:15i had this way

18:20i'm off to give my purchase
18:22one last look-see

18:24tracy before i go
18:26maybe you could give me
18:27some suggestions
18:27on auction houses
18:28excuse me
18:30oh
18:31i guess miss bard
18:33didn't tell you
18:34my offer was turnkey
18:35so that includes
18:35all the furniture
18:36the problem is
18:37is that
18:38i don't really share
18:40your family's taste
18:41really
18:43and here i thought
18:44you and michael did
18:45hmm
18:46i just need to
18:47offload everything
18:48except for maybe
18:50the family dining table
18:51and i suppose
18:53that means
18:53i should probably
18:54keep edward's chair
18:55as well
18:56let's let the lawyers
18:57handle this
18:58it's bad enough
18:59that you're getting
19:00the house
19:01there's no way
19:02i'm gonna let you
19:02have the furniture
19:03well it's too bad
19:04it's not up to you
19:05you will never sit
19:06in my father's chair
19:09at the head
19:10of the family
19:11dining table
19:12oh
19:12you are so right
19:14about that
19:15now that i think about it
19:15i'm not gonna hassle
19:16myself with auction houses
19:17and movers
19:18and all of that
19:19the night i move in
19:19i'm just gonna create

21:44so
21:44i saw curtis earlier
21:46oh
21:47so then
21:49i
21:50guess he told you
21:51that i suspect
21:52that portia's pregnant
21:53okay
21:56and we'll hold off
21:57and we won't tell trina
21:58until you feel comfortable
22:00thank you
22:01but that's not the only matter
22:06we have to discuss
22:07we still have to talk
22:11about what this means
22:12to us as a family
22:14we hardly qualify
22:17as a family
22:18well your pregnancy
22:19proves otherwise
22:20you're having a baby
22:22we're getting a divorce
22:23and i'm wondering

22:28you're the one
22:29who's been spending
22:29all your time
22:30with jordan
22:30you're obviously
22:32not interested in me
22:34or this marriage
22:35i'm not saying
22:38you can't
22:39go back to the
22:40stunt circuit
22:40i'm just saying
22:42you shouldn't
22:42why
22:43because
22:45for starters
22:47i mean
22:48that's a young man's game
22:49and it just
22:51must
22:51take a toll
22:52on your body
22:53and it's
22:54sorry
22:55no no
22:56you're right
22:58however
22:59this body
23:01happens to be
23:02a ferrari
23:03oh
23:03it's a used ferrari
23:05knees aren't great anymore
23:07it's got a slip disc
23:08and yes
23:09sometimes when it rains
23:10this ferrari
23:11has to take a few
23:12ibuprofen
23:13but i mean
23:13who doesn't
23:14um
23:15me
23:16i mean not because of rain
23:18anyway
23:18maybe you have a point
23:21maybe
23:22but there are so many options
23:24you could look into
23:25here in port charles
23:26like
23:27what about windermere
23:28they have stables
23:29that could be a viable option
23:30look look look
23:31hold on
23:32all right
23:32my new and exciting
23:33career opportunities
23:35are not the issue
23:36like i said
23:38i'll figure something out
23:40i'm not sure the quarter mains
23:41will
23:41they'll land on their feet
23:43yeah but
23:43if they don't land on their fate
23:45here
23:46in this house
23:47they're gonna be far apart
23:49and they need each other
23:50they just
23:51they don't deserve to be kicked
23:54out of their own home
23:55i can see how much they mean to you
23:58yeah
23:59i'm just as surprised as you are
24:01you know when i first
24:03came into this town
24:04i
24:04i didn't have any family whatsoever
24:07now through some miracle
24:10i have two
24:11scorpios and the q's
24:14i just want to help them
24:16in any way i can
24:17i take full responsibility
24:19for alienating ronnie
24:21the minute she moved in
24:22but you know what
24:22it wouldn't have happened
24:24if you hadn't welcomed her
24:25with open arms
24:26the minute that will was read
24:28okay
24:28come on
24:29tracy it's been a long
24:30really hard day
24:31i thought you were finally
24:32embracing
24:33what it meant to be a quarter main
24:35and yet
24:35when we needed you most
24:37you were nowhere to be found
24:38tracy
24:41let's go home
24:42good idea
24:45hopefully martin has
24:47scraped drew
24:48off the sidewalk
24:49by now
24:50so let's go home
24:51or rather
24:52the place
24:54i temporarily reside
24:56i just wanted you to know where i'm coming from
25:11michael was my son
25:14and i would absolutely do anything
25:18for him
25:19oh believe me sonny you have made that
25:22abundantly clear
25:24but i've been thinking
25:25thinking it over and
25:27i may have handled things
25:29you know
25:30i was just overprotective
25:32especially since michael's no longer a suspect in the case
25:37are you saying you may have crossed a line
25:40no
25:41i'm saying that
25:42it's not my job
25:44to tell you how to do your job
25:46oh
25:46well i'm glad you finally had that epiphany
25:48better late than never i suppose
25:51i messed up
25:52and i'm i'm sorry
25:55and i wanna
25:58make it up to you
26:02and how do you propose to do that
26:04well i mean that depends on you
26:08are you uh willing to take a risk
26:12curtis did mention your suspicions about portia
26:19i'm sorry
26:22i shouldn't have said anything
26:23i know you're in a delicate position lauren
26:26i would never ask you to portray curtis's confidence
26:29i know
26:29i know you wouldn't
26:31because curtis and i are very good friends
26:33but uh
26:34you know
26:36we're friends too
26:38right
26:39yeah
26:39so
26:40whatever you say to me stays between us as well
26:44i appreciate that
26:45you know
26:47i don't want to keep secrets from curtis
26:50not anymore
26:52which is why i told him about portia
26:54i can see
26:56how you were trying to help him
26:58i was
27:00but it's more than that
27:03my feelings for curtis are stronger than they've ever been
27:07and i thought i could keep them in check
27:10when i thought that curtis and portia were happy
27:12but now
27:13everything's changed
27:16how so
27:18curtis told me he has feelings for me too
27:22yeah
27:23i can see where that would complicate things a lot
27:26but
27:27if i'm right
27:28and portia is pregnant
27:30my feelings
27:33his feelings
27:34they won't matter
27:36because he'll put all of that aside
27:39and step up and do what's right for their child
27:41let me be absolutely clear with you
27:45jordan has no bearing on what we decide to do with our child
27:49mm-hmm
27:50yeah you say that now
27:52but curtis you haven't even told me what you really want
27:55i'll tell you what i don't want okay
27:57i don't want to have an off and on presence in my child's life
28:01i don't want to watch him grow up from the sidelines
28:04curtis you don't have to say this as some sort of obligation or something
28:07i'm saying this because i want to be a father to my child
28:10i didn't get a chance to raise trina
28:13i missed her whole childhood
28:15and i will not let that happen again
28:17i want to be there when the baby wakes up
28:19and i want to be there to tuck him in at night
28:22so the simplest way for us both to be in our child's life
28:26is for us to stay together
28:29okay
28:32this might actually be worth the wait
28:34this is delicious
28:35i can't taste the alcohol
28:38i'm glad you like it
28:39no no these these sugary drinks where you can't taste the booze are dangerous
28:43i cannot have a repeat of the croatian donkey affair
28:47well the animals in port charles can rest easy tonight
28:51because it's just
28:52the hard kind
28:55no
28:56i thought we were celebrating
28:59yeah
29:00sorry but i i need you sober
29:04because i have a few questions about the five poppies
29:08and faze on
29:11how about
29:14you give me five hours where
29:16i don't have to hear that name
29:18and
29:20i won't ask you about the court of mains losing the house
29:24and tracy blaming the whole thing on you
29:26deal
29:28thank you
29:38oh
29:41so
29:42this is what it looks like when all the boxes have been moved from the outside
29:48yeah well
29:48to the inside
29:49things are far too precious to be
29:51left to the elements
29:53right
29:55oh my father's letter opener
29:58oh just as sharp as ever
30:00oh okay i think maybe that needs to stay in the box
30:04my pillowcases
30:09look
30:11oh
30:11they're gorgeous
30:13look your initials
30:15they're my favorites
30:16oh
30:17let's have a bear
30:19oh
30:21alan's diplomas
30:24why did you let tracy walk all over you earlier
30:32wait what about our deal
30:35i'm my own worst enemy
30:37spoiler alert
30:38and i'm curious
30:40well um i didn't
30:45push back with tracy because
30:48deep down i know she's right
30:51if i had fought the hand over the house to ronnie
30:55i probably would have won
30:59and why didn't you
31:01it's not because i don't care about my family because i do
31:04but my mom wanted ronnie to have the house
31:09so just for once
31:13you know i thought i should do what my mom wanted
31:19before i made
31:22my connection with the scorpios
31:24i
31:24i was used to being on my own
31:26taking care of myself
31:28but the cues changed all that
31:32believe it or not it was tracy
31:34that actually made me feel
31:36like i belonged to her
31:37like i was a part of the family
31:39i think you made quite an impression on her too
31:42well
31:43we both love horses
31:45yeah she'd come down to the stables
31:47to check on hades and
31:49we'd just talk
31:51sometimes i'd have a beer
31:53she'd have a wine
31:54we'd solve the world's problems
31:56or figure out
31:58new ones to make up
31:59and then we were friends
32:03i'm not surprised
32:04you have a big heart
32:07and you want to help people
32:08not all people
32:11well not all people deserve your heart
32:14i'll talk to ada turner
32:18and see if we can try to figure out
32:21some possible criminal pretext for the case
32:23it'll be a long shot
32:25but i'll try
32:26no look i can't ask you to go out alone like that
32:29no you didn't
32:31i mean you did
32:32yeah
32:33but it's okay

34:45baby or no
34:47the reasons for the divorce are valid
34:50i don't know
34:53if getting back together
34:55is the best thing for us
34:56but i do know we should consider
34:58what kind of life we want
35:00not just for the baby
35:03but for ourselves
35:06i don't think you have anything to be sorry for
35:21there's no way you could have known
35:24what ronnie would do
35:26or how low drew would sink
35:28i mean you made the choice to honor your mother's wishes
35:32and i think that's pretty noble
35:34thank you
35:36anytime
35:38now
35:41enough moping
35:44it's been a rough day
35:46for both of us
35:47it's time for a real drink
35:48see i got a better idea
35:53take me for a drive
36:01oh
36:04my brother's diploma
36:05from medical school
36:07he graduated with highest honors
36:09oh he was surprised
36:10he was a really good doctor
36:12he was just stupid
36:13when he came to his personal life
36:15i think i need to get it framed
36:16you have to keep it
36:18i am
36:19right to the end
36:21and then i'm taking it with me
36:23that's what you want
36:25you know what
36:45why don't we call it a night
36:48and then tomorrow i will go through
36:52every one of these boxes with you
36:55shh
36:57shh
36:58shh
36:59come on

37:21legally speaking
37:22soon enough

37:24that's true
37:25that's true
37:25but if you want me to make sure scouts available for family visits
37:28you might
37:29want to change your tone
37:30i am just
37:32stating the law
37:33drew
37:34the house is not an escrow yet
37:36which means you have no right to be here
37:38it's gonna be a cash deal
37:40so when ronnie signs on the dotted line i just take possession
37:43it's as simple as that
37:44it's a funny thing though
37:47if you think about it
37:49my family once tried to kick me out of this house
37:51and now
37:52i'm about to own
37:55the entire estate and tracy and tracy and michael and the rest of them they'll be gone

38:09and i will see you in the next general hospital if you feel differently
38:13if valentine was stateside
38:25why on earth would you do that martin
38:41you won't be working with brit
