00:00Get me campus security.
00:02What are you doing? Get your hands off my grandson.
00:04Mayor Collins, I just caught this young man breaking in my lap, and I want him arrested immediately.
00:08I don't care what you think you know. You have no right to put your hands on him.
00:21If there's anything I can do for you, it's just...
00:24Hey, who's, uh, who's here?
00:27I took him to surgery.
00:30And, uh, where's my mom?
00:33She's in the waiting room by the O.R. with Brooklyn.
00:37Chase, he just went to the station to report in.
00:40I could have had someone fill in for him.
00:43Brooklyn practically shoved him out the door.
00:45She said that there's nothing he could do here, and she'd update him if anything changed.
00:50Thanks for calling me.
00:51Of course.
00:52Hey, I, uh, I understand you guys found Ned.
01:00Got him help?
01:01I called 911, but Gio did CPR.
01:05Saved Ned's life.
01:05I'm in your seat, aren't I?
01:31From what I heard, it used to be yours.
01:34Yeah.
01:34I was a lot of time.
01:36Nathan West.
01:37Harrison Chase.
01:38But everybody calls me Chase.
01:40Nice to meet you, Chase.
01:41You too.
01:42Looks like I'm your new partner.
01:47I come bearing great news.
01:49Hit me.
01:50I could use it.
01:52You will not have to go up against me in court.
01:54Well, I wasn't even sure you were going to take my call.
02:00Let him let me come by.
02:04Curiosity got the best of me.
02:06What are you here for?
02:09No, you're going to want to say no, but hear me out before you do.
02:16I want to be your lawyer.
02:19You what?
02:20Where is Rocco?
02:21I don't know, Dad.
02:22We're freaking out.
02:23It's really bad.
02:23Is Rocco hurt?
02:24No, but the guy grabbed him.
02:26He said he was going to arrest him.
02:27What guy?
02:28Professor Dalton.
02:30All right.
02:31Start from the beginning.
02:32Tell me everything that happened.
02:34I need to find my mom.
02:35Tell her about Rocco.
02:36No, Charlotte, you are not going anywhere.
02:42You let him go this instant.
02:46Oh, my goodness.
02:47Come with me.
02:48Come on.
02:51Rocco.
02:53Are you all right?
02:55I'm fine.
02:56Grandma, I'm really sorry.
02:57I didn't mean for any...
02:58No, not another word.
02:59Oh, boy.
03:01Breaking and entering.
03:02Serious crime.
03:03Police need to be around here somewhere.
03:06I will go grab them.
03:07No, you won't.
03:09Nobody is going to arrest my grandson.
03:11I spoke with ADA Turner, and I am no longer on Willow's case.
03:39Thank goodness.
03:40Huge weight off, right?
03:41I'm sure the thought of going up against me was just...
03:44Terrifying.
03:45Yeah.
03:45I know you were losing sleep over it.
03:47Yeah.
03:49In all seriousness, aren't you surprised that Turner didn't pick you to be second chair?
03:55I mean, you did handle Willow's arraignment.
03:57I was a little surprised, but I think Turner just wants all the glory.
04:05So, no second chair, huh?
04:07Oh, she's insisting on handling it all herself.
04:10Well, I'm sorry.
04:11It was a high-profile case, and it could have been a nice launching pad for you.
04:15That's true.
04:17But, honestly, after the year we've all had, you know, Christina and I are finally getting along.
04:23You and I, too.
04:24I think I'm okay just enjoying the peace while I have it.
04:28Smart girl.
04:29Even you and Dad are getting along.
04:32No one is more surprised than I am, but I'll take it.
04:36I can get it.
04:36Yeah, I mean, I'm sorry about what he went through at that digital detox center, but he and I have never been closer.
04:46So, he's recovered from that ayahuasca thing out in the woods, right?
04:51No residual frustration or anger?
04:55No.
04:56He seems great.
04:57He broke up with Ava.
04:58He's been spending more time with me.
05:00It's like his priorities have completely shifted.
05:03Oh, well, good.
05:04Let's just hope it stays that way.
05:07Yeah.
05:08I know.
05:09I don't want to get my hopes up too high, but wouldn't it be crazy if all those horrible things that happened to him and the time he spent with those crazy people actually turned out to be a really good thing?
05:23You want to be my lawyer?
05:25I do.
05:26I already have a lawyer.
05:28Diane's been my lawyer for years.
05:29She's brilliant, and she never lets me down.
05:32Well, Diane is a force, that's for sure.
05:35And even if I didn't have the best lawyer there is, I would trust the Grim Reaper before I trust you with my legal affair.
05:44Okay.
05:45That's fair.
05:46Okay.
05:47But come on, sonny.
05:47You've got to be concerned about Jen Sidwell's continued presence here in Port Charles.
05:52He is the main backer to pass Measure C.
05:54Diane's handling it.
05:55Yeah, Diane is fabulous, but she is compromised.
05:58What does that mean?
06:01Well, think about it.
06:02She's partnered with Alexis, who A, doesn't want to have anything to do with your businesses, and B, is riddled with ethics that could get in the way of your goals.
06:10Not to mention, Sidwell's son works for them.
06:15You can assume that he reports everything he hears back to his father.
06:19Say that's true.
06:21None of them has betrayed me the way you have over and over and over.
06:28You know what?
06:29I'm just wasting time.
06:30No, you're not, sonny.
06:32You've got to go.
06:34Okay, okay.
06:35Sorry.
06:35No, I know all the reasons you hate me, and you know why I hate you, but there is something that supersedes all of that.
06:43A more important reason to work together.
06:49Do you really need to physically find your mom?
06:51Can't you just call her?
06:52She's going to lose her mind.
06:53I have to tell her about Rocco in person, so I can say it just the right way.
06:57Okay, at least let me drive you.
07:01Is she still at the hospital?
07:02Yeah, thanks.
07:09Okay, look, I can't help you if I don't know what happened.
07:14Okay, um, Charlotte, Rocco, and I stole a key fob for Professor Dalton's lab.
07:21We were searching his lab when Dalton showed up.
07:25Sure, and then I got away, but Rocco got caught.
07:32Dad, I'm sorry.
07:35Okay, I know it was stupid what I did, but...
07:37Yeah, it was.
07:39Whose idea was this?
07:44Did you get Rocco into this?
07:47I administered CPR as soon as I realized Ned didn't have a pulse and wasn't breathing,
07:51and then Emma came back with Brayden, and she took over.
07:56That's amazing.
07:58What you did, thank you.
08:00Yeah, I just did what anyone else would have.
08:02No, it's not true.
08:03Not everyone knows CPR.
08:05Ned's really, really lucky that you're a trained lifeguard.
08:07She's right.
08:09You kept your cool under pressure.
08:10Some people would have panicked.
08:11No, I kind of did.
08:13The only thing I could think of was grabbing Brayden.
08:14I don't know.
08:15That was smart, too.
08:17Proud of you.
08:18I hope I get an update soon.
08:22Yeah, look, I know your mom has her debate.
08:25Why don't you take off, and I'll keep you posted on what's happening here.
08:28I want to be here.
08:29You sure?
08:30Yeah, I'm...
08:31I'm sure I can watch it online, right?
08:34Do you want to grab something to drink?
08:36I completely forgot to mess, and I was supposed to bring you to Dalton's lap.
08:47Don't worry about it, okay?
08:48I already talked to Charlotte.
08:49I told her it was called off, and why?
08:50And she said she completely understood.
08:51No, I know how badly you wanted to do this, and it has to be tonight.
08:56We'll figure something out, okay?
08:58Your grandfather is way more important.
09:04So, how did your first day as acting commissioner go?
09:08That way I got to welcome Nathan back to the force, that felt pretty great.
09:13Yeah, I'm just, you know, getting up to speed.
09:16One of those jobs that looks easier on the outside?
09:19Yeah.
09:20I don't know.
09:21I feel like I'm handling it pretty well.
09:25Mayor Collins,
09:26are you suggesting that your grandson is above the law?
09:30Because our constituents would be shocked at the blatant abuse of power.
09:36I'm sorry, who are you?
09:38I'm Professor Henry Dalton.
09:39I teach environmental physics here at PCU,
09:41and I just caught your grandson here inside my high-security lab across the quad.
09:47Well, on that note, I'll be notifying the police.
09:50So, I decided to bring him here to the lecture hall,
09:52because I knew the police would be here for the debate.
09:54Now, I can explain it all.
09:58I'm sorry, but how do you know that my grandson broke into your lab?
10:03Is there a sign of forced entry?
10:05Because it's a secure lab with restricted access.
10:09Oh, well, then perhaps he didn't know that it was off limits.
10:11There were signs, and you have to have a key fob to enter.
10:14And I don't recall giving one.
10:15Did I give you one?
10:16Couldn't the door to the lab have been left propped open?
10:19No, not by anyone I have authorized to work there.
10:23But let's just say, the door didn't close properly.
10:26Yeah.
10:26Like I said to you, there's a sign, and it reads,
10:29Authorized Personnel Only.
10:31Unless you, what, think your grandson is delusional?
10:35Is that what it is?
10:36He thinks he's authorized to work there?
10:38I mean, it's either that, or he just chose to ignore the sign.
10:40Which one is it?
10:41Oh, my goodness.
10:43Mayor Collins, is there a problem?
10:45Yes.
10:46Yes, there's a problem.
10:47There's a very big problem.
10:48The professor here has had a massive overreaction, leading to the assault of a minor.
10:56I didn't assault anyone.
10:58He was in my lab.
11:01Yes, he was.
11:03And he shouldn't have been.
11:05We know that.
11:05But there is absolutely no sign of malicious intent here.
11:10Look, was anything broken or damaged?
11:16Okay, look.
11:17Look, I am willing to look the other way about the inappropriate use of physical force.
11:24If you are willing to just drop this right now.
11:29The lab requires a key fob to enter.
11:32Is that correct?
11:33Yes, that is correct.
11:34Then search him, please.
11:35If you find the key fob, he knew exactly what he was doing.
11:40Yeah, just let me know as soon as you hear anything, okay?
11:49I love you.
11:53Everything okay at the hospital?
11:55Uh, it will be.
11:57So, are you getting the lay of the land?
12:01Yeah.
12:01Yeah, well, you know, not much has changed.
12:04Like the new soap in the bathroom.
12:06This must be strange for you.
12:08Dante used to be your partner.
12:09Now he's the acting commissioner.
12:13I'm just grateful to be back.
12:15You know, the price I gotta pay is...
12:18Then Dante boss me around, so be it.
12:20How about you?
12:22What about me?
12:22Not every day you work with a guy who can't remember the last seven years of his life.
12:28I passed all the psych tests.
12:29I'm good.
12:30I'm not worried.
12:32You're not?
12:33I trust Anna and Dante's judgment.
12:37You know, why don't I catch you up on our highest profile case?
12:41Judge Heron's murder.
12:43You killed a judge?
12:45Yeah.
12:46And this one is a little tricky because you and I are both looking at a potential conflict of interest.
12:51I just got here.
12:52I got a conflict already?
12:54Heron was the judge that denied Willow custody of her kids.
12:59Uh, Willow.
13:01My niece.
13:02And my ex-wife.
13:04I still can't get over how lucky it is that Cody found Dad.
13:08Yeah.
13:09I mean, his timing was impeccable.
13:11And let's not discount Outback's part in the rescue.
13:18Mom?
13:19Huh?
13:20Everything okay?
13:22Yes.
13:24Yes, I'm just so happy for you.
13:28You know, Rick and I have our differences.
13:29But he loves you, and you love him, and I'm just glad that you both are spending time together.
13:36I appreciate you saying that.
13:37I can see the effort you're making with him, and it means a lot.
13:42You know that I would do anything for you, right?
13:46So I just don't want you to be disappointed.
13:51I mean, the situation with Rick seems a little too good to be true.
13:57That's what I thought, too.
13:58But I swear, he's in a really good place.
14:03Good.
14:05Let's hope it lasts.
14:10So what am I supposed to do, hire you out of brotherly love?
14:14Is that it?
14:15Yeah.
14:16Right.
14:17And our daughters are sisters.
14:19Uh-huh.
14:20But Molly and Christina love each other.
14:22And for some reason, they love us.
14:24I just don't want our bad blood to be a strain on their relationship.
14:28They almost lost each other when they lost the baby.
14:30They're finally in a good place.
14:32Yeah.
14:33In a way.
14:33You want to protect that?
14:35What, you don't?
14:37Well, that sounds reasonable on its face.
14:39But I've tried to make peace with you.
14:43How many times, Rick?
14:44And all you do is double-cross me.
14:47Yeah, okay, I know.
14:48But I recently had a...
14:50What?
14:55The life-altering experience.
14:57Oh, that's right.
14:58You had a run-in with the ayahuasca cult.
15:02You don't have to sound so pleased about it.
15:03I'm not sounding...
15:04Yeah.
15:05I'm just saying that you find an enlightening...
15:09No, no.
15:10More like a new perspective.
15:13I realize what's truly important now.
15:15Look, I don't expect you to take this on faith.
15:18Are you prepared to prove to you how valuable it can be?
15:26I'm listening.
15:31I owe way for you to keep your peers.
15:37No matter what happens with Measure C.
15:43Turn out your pockets, please.
15:45Is any of your research dangerous, Professor?
16:00Yes, I work with volatile materials and the science that says so,
16:03which is why only authorized persons are allowed in my lap.
16:07Okay, well, now, you didn't only put yourself at risk,
16:09but possibly the entire campus.
16:13You're under arrest.
16:14Oh, no.
16:15Grandma?
16:16It's okay, honey.
16:17You have the right to remain silent.
16:19Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
16:23You have the right to an attorney.
16:26You cannot afford an attorney.
16:28One will be provided for you.
16:30Do you understand these rights as I've read them to you?
16:36Yeah.
16:37Don't say another word.
16:38I'm coming with you, all right?
16:41Wait a minute now.
16:42You cannot leave.
16:42The debate was supposed to start ten minutes ago.
16:44I have to go.
16:44He is a minor.
16:45And what am I going to tell the kids about it?
16:46I have a family emergency.
16:48I'm going with my grandson.
16:52Mom, Dante.
16:53I need to talk to you about Rocco.
16:55He's okay, but he's in trouble.
16:56What does that mean?
16:58It means that physically he's fine, but he needs us.
17:01He needs you.
17:02Did she have something to do with it?
17:04What?
17:04No.
17:04Britt just gave me a ride here.
17:06Okay.
17:06What happened?
17:08Danny, Rocco, and I broke into a lab at PCU.
17:11Rocco got caught.
17:12I think he could be arrested.
17:14What?
17:14Whoa, whoa, whoa.
17:15Okay.
17:15We need the entire story start at the beginning.
17:18Don't leave anything out.
17:22It's me.
17:23Can you come to G.H. right now?
17:26I know, but I really need to see you.
17:31All right, you sounded even more serious than usual.
17:38What's going on?
17:39Danny was involved in a break-in tonight.
17:44As in you're the one who broke in?
17:47Well, he got away without getting caught.
17:50Rocco wasn't as lucky.
17:55So bad.
17:57Oh, I know.
17:58Charlotte, Danny, and Rocco were only supposed to grab the key fog.
18:00Okay, I specifically told them not to break into the lab themselves,
18:03and I even said those exact words.
18:05When you called off the break-in,
18:06they must have decided to go ahead and do it themselves.
18:09I know, which is exactly what we didn't want them to do.
18:11It's my fault.
18:13I never should have got Rocco involved.
18:15No, no, I got them all involved.
18:17Okay?
18:18And asking for their help, that was wrong.
18:20I just got so wrapped up in trying to prove that Dalton was abusing animals.
18:25Come, do you know, I know if my grandma's in town,
18:27she'd make sure that Rocco wasn't punished for my screw-ups.
18:34I know this is bad.
18:35It's going to be okay.
18:37I know what to do.
18:38If this strategy has a shot,
18:49why hasn't Diane mentioned it?
18:52Maybe because I'm a better lawyer.
18:55With property law, at least, right?
18:58Look, I know that Diane is an out-of-the-box thinker.
19:01Makes her very dangerous in court.
19:03But maybe, just maybe, she's not been unconventional enough.
19:09What do you mean, Rick?
19:10Well, it's not a slam dunk,
19:12but I believe I can make a case against Eminem Domain,
19:17allowing you to keep your peers.
19:20And if I am successful,
19:22maybe I can handle some of your other legal needs.
19:27There it is.
19:30Okay.
19:31Look, even if it's a one and done,
19:34I think it'll prove to you that I want peace between us.
19:39Damn.
19:40I want to believe you.
19:42You know that, Rick?
19:45Treating each other like brothers and everything was good.
19:48It would be better for everybody.
19:51That's what Mom would have wanted.
19:52Look, I have hated you for a long time.
20:00And I really want to be done with it.
20:06So?
20:08What do you say?
20:10We put the past, put the past.
20:13Try to move forward here?
20:21Think about it.
20:22It's not here.
20:48Would you three do me a favor?
20:53Could you go to Bobby's to see if I left my bag?
20:55I'd really appreciate it.
20:57Uh, we're on it.
20:58Yeah.
21:00You do know I don't take kindly to be summoned.
21:13I asked you to come because that idiot Dalton wants my son arrested.
21:20You don't have a son.
21:22Okay.
21:23Dante and Lulu may be his parents now, but I carried Rocco.
21:26I gave birth to him.
21:27What does Dalton have to do with this?
21:30He caught Rocco in his lab just a little while ago.
21:34And you know this how?
21:37Does it matter?
21:38Dalton threatened to have Rocco arrested.
21:41I need you to call him off.
21:42Well, I adore my sister, and I've only met Willow a handful of times, but I can see how much
21:49Nina loves her.
21:51The journey's been an interesting one.
21:53Yeah.
21:54Yeah, I was at the arraignment.
21:55So, is Willow a suspect in Heron's murder?
21:59No.
22:00No, I just wanted everything out in the open.
22:02I'm happily married.
22:03Willow's just important to me.
22:06Thanks.
22:07So, what's going on with the Heron case?
22:11Unfortunately, we're at a dead end.
22:13I mean, we have no viable suspects, and any physical evidence was lost when the body went
22:17into the water somewhere off Pier 55.
22:19Hey, has Rocco been brought in here?
22:24No.
22:25Are you saying that he's been arrested?
22:30Rocco.
22:46Show me something, Tanya.
22:48Come on in.
22:51I heard about Ned.
22:53What can I do?
22:53Yeah, Ned's in surgery.
22:55Olivia said she'll text me when he's out, but this is something else.
22:59We're in big trouble.
23:01You and Emma?
23:02No, mainly Rocco, but it's because of us.
23:06What do you need?
23:08You're all right?
23:09I'm fine.
23:09Thank you for calling me.
23:11Thank you for calling me.
23:11Of course.
23:13Yeah.
23:14Hey, Nathan, can you take Rocco out of the interrogation?
23:17Yeah.
23:18Thanks.
23:18He's a minor, so I can go with him, right?
23:22Yeah, you can.
23:22Thank you for bringing him here.
23:32Oh, I wasn't about to let him come alone.
23:36And no, uh, Professor Dalton?
23:38He gave us his statement, but insisted on going back to the lab.
23:41Uh, okay.
23:45Can you write a report so I can review that ASAP?
23:48Yes, Commissioner.
23:49Thanks.
23:50Commissioner, you must still be getting used to that, huh?
23:53Yeah.
23:55Uh, and not the first day, I imagined.
23:59You've got this.
24:02Hey, Charlotte, uh, you mind hanging with Chase for a minute while I talk to your grandma?
24:08Sure.
24:11Come here.
24:13Right.
24:15So what the hell happened?
24:19Are you doing okay?
24:21Do you think I could get some water?
24:23Yeah, no problem.
24:32Are you allowed to do that?
24:36Well, uh, this is my first day, your first arrest.
24:41I figured I'd give us both a break.
24:43Cute, Nathan.
24:47You need some ice?
24:48No.
24:48No, I'm good.
24:51Would it be okay if I spoke with Rocco alone?
24:54Yeah.
24:54Yeah, sure.
24:57You'll figure this out.
25:02What happened?
25:10I'm so sorry, Mom.
25:11This wasn't...
25:14I was trying to do the right thing.
25:18And then Dalton showed up and we all hid.
25:20Me and Charlotte hid together and Rocco hid on the other side of the lab.
25:23I'm breaking out into a cold sweat just thinking about this.
25:26He was about to find me and Charlotte, but then Rocco made a noise and he found him instead.
25:30You mean Rocco made a noise on purpose?
25:33Rocco knew that'd be worse for me if I got caught.
25:35Because of Scout and the restraint order.
25:36All right, let's just back up for a second.
25:38Are you sure the professor didn't see you or Charlotte?
25:41Positive.
25:42He grabbed Rocco and dragged him out of the lab saying he'd have him arrested.
25:45And then me and Charlotte got out of there and went straight to Dad.
25:49Where's Charlotte now?
25:51Britt drove her GH to find Lulu.
25:53Britt Westborn?
25:55How is she involved in all this?
26:00How does a child gain access to a secure lab?
26:05It's imperative that Dalton's research remain a secret.
26:09We can worry about that later.
26:11Right now, Rocco's the priority.
26:16I am still unclear what you're expecting me to do.
26:21Dalton works for you.
26:22You can ask him, but not for his charges.
26:24Why would I do that?
26:28Because you know as well as I do that it'd be better for all of us if Dalton was a little more reined in.
26:36Reined in?
26:39I do have to think about our timeline.
26:44Okay, look.
26:45You and I have been on the same team since I set foot into the lab, and I think I've proven that.
26:50And as someone who values loyalty, I am asking you to slap the man whose only loyalty is to himself and please make this go away.
27:20Hi, Miles.
27:27Cheers to my beautiful daughter.
27:29Sorry, let me finish this one part.
27:39Done.
27:41Hi.
27:42Hi.
27:44You working on a brief?
27:45My book, actually.
27:47Really?
27:48How's it going?
27:49Well, when I first started out, it was a lot more deleting than writing, but I just could not get a handle on the story.
27:59So it changed.
28:01You.
28:02Well, Cody rescuing you.
28:06Well, I'm thrilled.
28:07It's not your inspiration.
28:08I don't understand the connection.
28:11Okay, so my main problem was that my hero was so two-dimensional.
28:14I mean, you know the type.
28:16Handsome, dark, brooding.
28:18Oh, yeah.
28:19I'm familiar, but I never really understood the appeal.
28:23Then it hit me.
28:24The flawed guy who steps up when it really matters.
28:29Much more interesting.
28:30Right.
28:30So then I made Sidekick the hero, and boom.
28:34It all clicked.
28:35It's really fun to write.
28:36That's great.
28:37I'm very proud of you.
28:40Yeah, it really took me a minute, but I finally figured out the chemistry between my heroine and my real hero.
28:45I started all of this, okay?
28:47The reason that I'm in Port Charles is because I suspected that Professor Dalton was testing on animals at my old school.
28:53When you were back on the West Coast?
28:55Yeah, and I even got arrested trying to prove it, and the college covered it up.
28:58So when Emma heard Dalton transfer to PCU, you follow him to Port Charles?
29:05Yeah.
29:06I knew in my gut that Dalton is still abusing animals, so I managed to get the job as his research assistant, and my plan was to break into the lab and to find evidence.
29:15No, that's not right.
29:16It was our plan.
29:17It was our plan.
29:19We were in on this together.
29:26Charlotte already told me that she and Danny were in the lab tonight, so don't bother covering for them.
29:31We thought Dalton was illegally testing on animals.
29:35We wanted to prove it.
29:37Okay, so far, so good.
29:40So we broke into the lab.
29:43But no, not so good.
29:45But there weren't any animals, not that we could see, anyway.
29:49We were about to leave when Dalton showed up.
29:51I got caught.
29:53Danny and Charlotte got away.
29:54Okay.
29:56So you got caught, and then what happened?
29:58Dalton took me to where the debate was going to happen because he knew police would be there.
30:04Grandma tried to talk him out of having me arrested, but he wouldn't listen to anything she said.
30:12Okay.
30:14When we get out of here, you can expect to have a very long conversation about how wrong sneaking into places is,
30:22especially a place as dangerous as a lab, with all the hazardous materials and experiments going on.
30:28You guys didn't break anything, right?
30:30No.
30:31No, I swear.
30:31All we did was look through some papers.
30:33Dalton's making it out to be worse than it was.
30:34No matter how you look at this, this is bad.
30:37I know.
30:38And I'm so sorry.
30:39I hate that Grandma missed your debate because of me.
30:42You can see that actions have unexpected consequences, right?
30:53I cannot stress enough how important it is that you think things through, especially in your position.
31:00I know it's not fair, but it is a reality.
31:04Your dad is the acting police commissioner, and your grandmother is the mayor.
31:09What you do reflects back on them.
31:12Is dad really mad?
31:17Yes.
31:19Right now, we're just both more concerned with keeping you out of jail.
31:35You need to leave.
31:39I told Rocco not to say anything.
31:42I appreciate that.
31:45See, what was my son doing breaking into a restricted lab at PCU?
31:50I have absolutely no idea, and I can't imagine how he got his hands on that key fob.
31:55Well, I don't think he did.
31:58What do you mean?
31:59Danny and Charlotte were involved, too.
32:01Really?
32:02Yeah.
32:03Rocco did not say anything about that.
32:05Well, that's not a huge surprise.
32:08But look, I can't help but think that this could be bad for you.
32:14Oh, you mean if charges are actually filed, yes, there will probably be some blowback.
32:20But you know the thing that's killing me is that I was this close to getting Dalton to dropping the whole thing, and then Ezra Boyle got involved.
32:30Britt was there when Danny and Charlotte showed up.
32:35She just wanted to help.
32:36Grandma, if I turn myself in and say I was there, too, will that help Rocco in any way?
32:42No, it will not help Rocco.
32:44In fact, it'll make it worse.
32:47How?
32:48Because if you say you're involved, Rocco will still be in trouble.
32:53But so will you.
32:56And then Drew will have everything he needs to keep me away from Scout forever.
33:01Drew will have everything he needs to put Danny in prison.
33:04Looks like Rocco will be charged with a misdemeanor at most.
33:16I don't see any reason in holding him overnight.
33:18That's a relief.
33:19Yeah, it is.
33:21You mind grabbing him from interrogation?
33:23You got it.
33:24Thanks.
33:27Just making sure Rocco's okay.
33:31Not your best idea.
33:33Your parents for that.
33:34You're being released into our custody.
33:41You'll have to be at the courthouse at 8 a.m. for your lane.
33:43No, no, no.
33:45Not now.
33:46We'll talk about it later.
33:50We'll be sure to be on time for court.
33:52All right.
33:54See you in the morning.
33:55Your dad has to be commissioner right now.
34:04He can't be your father.
34:07I really missed you in the morning.
34:08I really missed them.
34:14Yes, you did.
34:16But that doesn't mean we won't recover.
34:19Are you really okay?
34:38Yeah.
34:39You didn't have to do that, you know?
34:41Yeah, I did.
34:45Thank you for everything, Mom.
34:47You know, I'm glad I was there.
34:50Me too.
34:51And I'm really sorry for making you miss the debate.
34:54I hope it doesn't affect the election.
34:56Rocco, listen to me, honey.
34:58All that matters is that you are all right.
35:02Come on now.
35:05We're going to get through this, Rocco.
35:08All of us.
35:12We'll help Rocco if we go to the cops.
35:15Tell them it was our idea.
35:16With all due respect to your grandmother, and I have a lot of it.
35:20I know.
35:21Giving information to the police is rarely a smart move.
35:25Now, your plan, right, to break in, that was the beginning.
35:30But look, you weren't on campus tonight.
35:32You weren't involved in anything else.
35:35Unlike Rocco, you two were adults.
35:38So the consequences are going to be a lot worse for you.
35:42This is just not good for Rocco.
35:46I just feel terrible.
35:47I mean, Rocco wouldn't have been there tonight if it weren't for us.
35:51Well, you should have thought of that before you involved Rocco.
35:54Sonny, it was me.
35:56I'm the one who approached Rocco.
35:57Okay, let's just sit.
35:58I was in there with you.
35:59Sit tight, everybody.
36:02Right now, Rocco's fate is in the hands of the lawyers.
36:10Well, I guess it's lucky for me and your book that Cody turned out to be such a good guy.
36:15Sorry?
36:24Sorry?
36:25You looking for a way to prove yourself?
36:30I got one.
36:31Danny, if you come forward, Drew will insinuate himself into the police investigation and he will push for a felony.
36:42I have to do something.
36:43I can't just let my brother take the fall.
36:45I hate to say this, Danny, but you...
36:47There's nothing I can do.
36:49You said that Rocco purposely made a noise so you and Charlotte wouldn't get caught.
36:53Don't you think you should respect his decision to protect you?
36:57I know.
36:57Listen, I know it's hard, but it was Rocco's choice.
37:00So that's it?
37:01All I can do is sit around with my mouth shut?
37:04No.
37:06There is one more thing you can do.
37:10Where'd you get the key fob to get into Dalton's lab?
37:22What are you doing here?
37:25I just wanted to make sure everything was okay.
37:27Rocco's going home.
37:28Not that it's any of your business, but yes, everything is going to be fine.
37:35I know it will.
37:37Some first day, huh?
37:39No kidding.
37:40Sure you won't get into trouble for letting Rocco go?
37:43No, you know, he's a minor.
37:45I'd done the same for anyone else.
37:48Good thing there's no damage to the lab.
37:50Rocco, get off the misspeater.
37:54Thanks to your negligence, our project could have been exposed.
37:57Everything was secure and I got your call.
38:00Now I'm going to make sure that the kid gets punished.
38:04No, no.
38:06Just let it go away.
38:08No.
38:09Let it go away.
38:11Otherwise, it'll draw police attentions to the lab.
38:15Something we don't need.
38:17After the way the mayor humiliated me, I'm going to make sure her grandson pays the price.
38:23On the next General Hospital.
38:38That is not happening.
38:39You should be leaving this courthouse and not coming back.
38:42That should prove to you how determined he is to win.
38:44Where did that idea even come from?
38:46I'm going to make sure he never goes back to you.
38:49This baby changes everything.
