00:00I ask not to be...
00:11Carly.
00:12Hi.
00:14Come in.
00:18To what do I owe the pleasure?
00:21I was taking inventory in the wine cellar, and look what I found.
00:27He ordered this once upon a time.
00:30I did, and you remembered.
00:33Of course I did.
00:35I remember everything about you.
00:37Well, I'm flattered.
00:44I was surprised you wanted to meet me here.
00:46I thought you'd want to be with your campaign.
00:49Oh, yeah.
00:50My team's gathering at the Metro Corps, watching the returns, hoping against hope.
00:56It's a little too early to talk like that.
00:58No.
01:00It isn't.
01:01I'm afraid that my political career might be over right now.
01:06You see, I kind of lashed out at that guy, Dalton, and I did it in public.
01:11Yeah, I saw it.
01:12Yeah, it was beautiful.
01:16Any word on our son?
01:18Yeah, yeah.
01:19Bronco's doing okay.
01:20Anything got him settled in there.
01:24We're just in a holding pattern now for the bail hearing.
01:26He must be so scared in that detention center.
01:32Yeah.
01:33He wouldn't even be there if it wasn't following his brother's lead.
01:37Wait, Danny's?
01:38No, not Danny.
01:41This is all Gio's doing.
01:44Why would Portia shoot true?
01:46I want some assurances first.
01:48Oh, here we go.
01:49First, I want Danny on the record, on Rocco's behalf.
01:53And then I will tell you all about Portia's motive.
01:56Absolutely not.
01:57I am not going to risk my grandson's.
01:59Alexis, my strategy will help keep both Rocco and Danny out of trouble.
02:05All on your word.
02:06Alexis, I've changed, okay?
02:08I've had my come-to-Jesus moment.
02:10I have reflected upon myself, and I have evolved.
02:14A month in captivity will do that to a man.
02:17A month in captivity will do a lot of things to a lot of people.
02:20Most of it's not good.
02:24Portia's motive?
02:27Or the door?
02:33Hey, thanks for coming.
02:37I wasn't sure you would.
02:40Given the last time we spoke, and I told you.
02:44It's okay.
02:47What do you need?
02:48Your help.
02:49Danny.
02:51He has to come forward to corroborate Rocco's story about what really happened the night of the break-in.
02:57Wait, I'm sorry.
02:59I'll do anything.
03:03But not that.
03:04Excuse me?
03:10Uh, yeah.
03:10What can I do for you?
03:11We're here by our brother, Rocco Falconeri.
03:14Oh, I'm sorry.
03:15If you're here to see Rocco, he's already been moved to a juvenile detention center.
03:18That's not why we're here.
03:20We're here to turn ourselves in.
03:21You said on the phone that things are worse than we feared?
03:35Much worse.
03:38It appears Dalton has jeopardized our entire operation.
03:42Thank you for sharing this with me.
04:10I really did intend for it to be a gift for you.
04:13Well, it's a lovely gift, but, uh, you showing up at my door is the best gift you could have given me.
04:20I guess you'd miss me.
04:28Well, uh, I mean, we haven't been seeing a lot of each other lately.
04:32And it feels like more than just full schedules.
04:38What's it feel like?
04:40Distance.
04:43And I have been racking my brain trying to figure out what to do about that.
04:51What have you come up with?
04:52I'm still working on it.
04:56But then, uh, you made the first move.
05:04Or am I wrong?
05:05According to acting D.A. Turner, Dalton provided photographic evidence of the damage Rocco Falconeri did to the lab.
05:16Well, given the fact that Dalton obviously trashed the lab himself in order to stick it to the kid,
05:21they probably won't find the boy's fingerprints on anything that was damaged.
05:25Dalton also claimed that there were hazardous materials present and told the A.D.A. that said chemicals could have caused injury or even fatalities had he not stopped Rocco himself.
05:36Well, how heroic.
05:39As a result, the charges have been escalated to felony criminal trespass, vandalism, destruction of digital data and records, and reckless endangerment.
05:50So, instead of blowing over, our lab is now the focus of unwanted attention.
05:57Brilliant. Just brilliant.
05:59Thank you for letting me know so quickly, though. I'll take it from here.
06:03Maybe it's time that you requested assistance.
06:08From whom?
06:10The guy you're running this operation with.
06:16Of course you won't help me. Why would you?
06:19I'm not Carly.
06:20Actually, since it's Danny, you probably would have said no to her, too.
06:32Yes, I would have.
06:35It's just...
06:38Rocco's arraignment spiraled out of control, Jason.
06:42Seeing his face as the police were taking him away, he was so scared.
06:47I'm sure he was.
06:48But he's gonna get out of this. There's no way he vandalized the lab.
06:51No, he didn't.
06:52Yeah.
06:53Dalton is lying.
06:54Which is why Danny needs to come forward. He can prove Rocco's side of the story.
06:58Danny can't come forward.
07:01It'll just make things worse.
07:06Okay.
07:06What exactly is it that you're here to turn yourselves in for?
07:12We were with Rocco the night he broke into the PCU lab.
07:16All right, uh, before this goes any further, are you sure you want to do this?
07:23Yes.
07:23Absolutely.
07:24He's our brother.
07:27All right, uh, wait a minute. I'll be back to take your statement.
07:34Are you sure you want to do this?
07:36I mean, what choice do we have?
07:38It's our only way to save Rocco.
07:39I know. I'm just making sure.
07:42He can't be the only one taking the blame.
07:46Dad told me not to do this.
07:48God, he's gonna be so mad at me.
07:50I know.
07:51My mom's not gonna be thrilled either.
07:53I mean, it's for our brother.
07:55We've gotta do what we gotta do.
07:58What do you mean this is all Gio's doing?
08:00Well, Gio's the one who wrote Danny and Rocco and Charlotte into the break-in.
08:05I don't understand. Why?
08:10Well, it wasn't just him.
08:12Emma admitted that she was in on it with him.
08:15She's been trying to prove that Dolan's been doing illegal animal testing.
08:19I know that Emma is big into animal rights, but...
08:23Yeah, and Gio's in her.
08:24So now our son is paying the price because he was trying to impress a girl.
08:30I want to believe there's more to it than that.
08:32Look.
08:35When Rocco got alcohol poisoning at King's Beach,
08:38I blamed Gio and his reckless behavior.
08:42And everyone told me I was wrong.
08:45Even Rocco.
08:46And so I spent months bending over backwards trying to...
08:50Clean up the mess that I had made and the damage that I had done.
08:53And now part of me wishes that...
08:56Maybe I never bothered doing that.
08:58You don't mean that.
09:00I don't know. I do. I do.
09:02Because if I had kept Gio at an arm's length,
09:07he wouldn't have got close enough to Rocco to potentially ruin his life.
09:13Well, if you saw my altercation with Dolan, then you know what a disaster it was.
09:17I mean, I attacked him.
09:19I threatened him.
09:20There's no way that that's going to go over well with the voting public.
09:24You should read the comments.
09:26Oh, I couldn't bear it.
09:28They're saying you're a badass.
09:31What?
09:32They love your fire, how relatable you are with, you know, your vulnerability and how real.
09:39And how you just, you know, stand up for your grandson.
09:43You went to bat for him.
09:45And they feel that you can do the same for the city.
09:48Wow.
09:50Oh, my goodness.
09:52Wow, thanks for that pick-me-up.
09:55But I still have this gnawing feeling in my gut that I tanked my own campaign.
10:01Let's hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
10:05Yeah.
10:07You know, it's funny.
10:08For months, I've been worrying about all the outside forces that could undermine my campaign.
10:16But in the end, the thing that might cost me the election is my own bad temper.
10:22Okay, you win.
10:28Remember the first case that I took when I came back to Port Charles?
10:31Heather Weber's cobalt poisoning.
10:32Yes.
10:32Okay.
10:33Heather claimed that the cobalt in her hip was responsible for her crimes.
10:39So I had two different test results done.
10:43One from GH to check her levels, and one from an independent lab to check her levels.
10:48The results came back varied.
10:51Varied how?
10:53Well, the independent lab showed that Heather's cobalt levels had returned to normal, which
10:59proved that Heather was no longer dangerous after the defective hip was removed.
11:04And what did the GH test say?
11:07They showed that they were still toxic, which implied that Heather was still violent and dangerous,
11:14and also unfit to be released.
11:18And if I had relied on GH's test results, Heather may still be in prison.
11:23So the GH tests were altered by?
11:29I'd imagine someone who had access to those results and somebody who had invested interest
11:36in keeping Heather in prison.
11:39Like the mother of one of Heather's would-be victims.
11:41Like Portia Robinson.
11:49You've got to stop being so hard on yourself.
11:54Yeah, well, I don't regret standing up for Rocco.
11:58I regret that my behavior may have handed this city over to Ezra Boyle.
12:04You have to stop talking like the election is over.
12:09You're protecting your family.
12:11The voters, the people in the city, they value that.
12:15You really think so?
12:16Listen.
12:20This is not your first rodeo.
12:22You're up for re-election.
12:24The people of Port Charles, they know what kind of person you are.
12:29I hope you're right.
12:31I really do.
12:31Because losing this election wouldn't just mean handing the city over to Ezra Boyle.
12:37It would mean handing it over to Sidwell, too.
12:40I will consider your suggestion that my partner's identity is on a strictly need-to-know basis.
12:48And I need you to focus on making the necessary changes to our operation.
12:53What kind of changes?
12:55Well, I recently put Britt Westbourne in charge of the lab, the research, and Dalton.
13:01You must have loved that.
13:03His reaction was, uh, uh, um, well, it prompted Miss Westbourne to suggest that she run everything herself.
13:12And in light of recent events, uh, maybe she was right.
13:15Are you sure about this?
13:17Well, Miss Westbourne certainly comes with her own set of, ah, complications.
13:23But, uh, unlike Dalton, she's not stupid.
13:27Extracting Dalton does come with its own risks.
13:30He does know where all the bodies are buried.
13:33So to speak.
13:33Danny is every bit as guilty as Rocco.
13:38So is Charlotte.
13:39So why should Rocco have to face the consequences alone when they could back up his story and this could be over today?
13:46Okay.
13:46All right.
13:47Have you talked to Lulio and Dante about Charlotte?
13:50No, I haven't.
13:51Because they hate me.
13:52If I asked them, it would just, oh, it's worse.
13:57Yeah, so would getting Danny involved.
14:00Look, if he admits to a crime, Drew's going to use every resource at his disposal to keep him from seeing his sister.
14:07And he's going to try to put him behind bars.
14:09Behind bars?
14:11One day, Scout called Danny, uh, for a ride home from camp.
14:15So Danny gave her a ride on his bike to the house.
14:19And Drew tried to have my kid charged with kidnapping.
14:22Taking someone home because they ask you to is very bad kidnapping.
14:26It's like the opposite of kidnapping.
14:28Yeah.
14:29No, but after that, then, um, Drew filed a restraining order against Danny, preventing him from actually seeing Scout.
14:39So if Danny comes forward about the break-in...
14:44Drew is going to do everything he can to put Danny in prison.
14:49I can't let that happen.
14:52Of course you can't.
14:54What parent could?
14:56It's not, it's not just that.
15:02A long time ago, Michael...
15:05Michael went to Penville.
15:09And, um, I followed him inside to protect him.
15:16But I was too late.
15:19Michael was scarred in ways that never healed.
15:21And I cannot have the same thing happening to Danny.
15:27I don't want that to happen to Rocco, either.
15:29Neither do I.
15:31Okay.
15:31So we have to come up with a way to save him.
15:34He came down hard on you.
15:38Maybe even harder than I did last time, and him knowing I'm his father makes me think maybe my words might have cut deeper, you know?
15:55I'm so sorry, Tante.
15:57I'm sorry, Tante.
16:00Just know that I am not happy with him right now, either.
16:06But while Gio may be responsible for drawing Rocco, Charlotte, and Danny into this mess, I don't think he deserves all the blame.
16:18You mean you thinking Emma?
16:19I mean all of them.
16:21Gio and Emma may have roped them into this, but Danny, Charlotte, and Rocco, they chose to get involved.
16:28So you're saying Rocco did this to himself?
16:30I think so.
16:33Yes.
16:35And so did Charlotte and Danny.
16:39This is Detective Nathan West interviewing Charlotte Cassadine and Daniel Morgan in the matter of the break-in at Port Charles University Labs.
16:47Charlotte, Daniel, why don't you start at the beginning?
16:49The first thing you need to know is that Rocco wasn't by himself.
16:53We were with him the entire time.
16:54Yeah, right from the beginning. Then Dalton showed up unexpectedly, so we hid.
16:59He was about to find me and Charlotte, which is when Rocco made a noise, and Dalton caught him.
17:05Rocco did it to distract Dalton and save us.
17:07Yeah.
17:08Where'd you break into the lab to begin with?
17:10We had heard that Dalton was performing illegal experiments on animals.
17:14Where'd you get that idea?
17:16Does it really matter?
17:17The only reason Portia would want to alter Heather's tests would be to keep her in jail because she tried to kill her daughter.
17:27And it's perfectly reasonable for her to worry that if Heather got out of jail, she would try to hurt Trina.
17:34That is an excellent theory.
17:36But what is the connection to Drew?
17:38How does Portia's grudge against Heather put a gun in her hand that's pointed at Drew?
17:44Hmm.
17:47Why, indeed.
17:49Uh, is that hypothetical?
17:52Oh, you know how I love those.
17:55Now imagine, your ex-husband has your daughter dead to rights for trying to kill a woman.
18:02I couldn't possibly.
18:03Then, imagine that you're able to, um, get away from this louse, and then another louse, an even worse louse, comes along and is able to get a hold of the evidence that would condemn your daughter to prison.
18:15Said louse would hold it over my head and then use it to blackmail me.
18:18Yes.
18:19But hypothetically, what would you do to get out from under him?
18:24Hypothetically?
18:25Hmm.
18:25I would chain him up in my basement and put a ball gag in his mouth.
18:30Feeling that?
18:32I might just have to shoot him dead.
18:38I just needed some time to process things.
18:42About the Vaughn situation?
18:44I get in my head why you didn't tell me that Vaughn was an agent.
18:52But it hurt, and when I'm hurt, I pull back.
18:58Carly, I...
19:00I am so sorry.
19:09You know, sometimes things just have to be a certain way, right?
19:14They do.
19:18And...
19:19I gotta tell you, I have...
19:21gone on a lot of midnight runs and taken a lot of cold showers, trying to figure out how to fix this.
19:31Yeah, I've had...
19:33a few sleepless nights myself.
19:39But I've missed you.
19:40I've missed talking to you and confiding in you.
19:48The ease of being together.
19:50And now when we're together and we're having drinks or dinner,
19:53everything's okay, it's just...
19:56Yeah, I know, but it...
19:58it feels tentative, like we're...
20:00trying to find our footing again, and I know that's on me.
20:03It's not.
20:04It's on me.
20:08I know I'm sending you mixed signals.
20:14Understanding, but not really forgiving.
20:16And I don't know if forgiveness is the right word.
20:20I think it comes down to acceptance.
20:22Can I accept...
20:28who you are?
20:31Can you?
20:36I'm here, am I?
20:38Before Professor Dalton caught Rocco, did you guys find anything?
20:41No.
20:42No animals.
20:44No evidence of anything, really.
20:45I mean, I picked up some, like, science-y...
20:48No, it's just to look at them.
20:49But I put them right back.
20:50They didn't mean anything to me.
20:52Other than that, did you move anything else?
20:54Did you break anything?
20:55Did you overturn anything else?
20:56No.
20:57We didn't damage the lab in any way.
21:01All right.
21:04Look, I know this was hard.
21:06But thank you for the information.
21:08Rocco's lucky to have you guys as siblings.
21:11Just...
21:12sit tight.
21:13I'll hear you back.
21:20Daniels, give me Jason Morgan's contact information.
21:25Sure thing, detective.
21:27Laura, your reputation speaks for itself.
21:33Meanwhile, everybody saw Dalton manhandle a teenager, and he was like a...
21:39not just a bully, he was slimy when he did it.
21:43It just kind of rolled off him, you know what I mean?
21:45Oh, you won't get an argument from me there.
21:48Sometimes with the voters, you have to trust that they know the truth.
21:52They're not fools.
21:54Yeah.
21:54You know, maybe I would feel better if I had had the chance to debate Boyle.
21:59You know, if the voters would have seen us go head-to-head.
22:03But you had the chance.
22:05And you chose your grandson, which is the right thing to do.
22:09I thought so.
22:11And we both know he would never destroy a lab.
22:13No, no.
22:14I know he wouldn't.
22:15But...
22:17he did break in.
22:18Yeah, he did break in.
22:20But destroy everything?
22:22No way.
22:23So that means that bastard...
22:27framed our grandson.
22:29Could you maybe talk to Dante and Lulu about Charlotte?
22:39Yeah?
22:40Jason.
22:41It's Detective Nathan West.
22:43What's going on?
22:44You might want to get out of the PCPD.
22:47It's about your son.
22:49While you are holding your son accountable,
22:51don't think that I've forgotten about my daughter.
22:54Charlotte and Rocco know better than this.
22:57Maybe they don't.
22:57Okay, well, they should know better than this.
23:01And neither one of them gave any consideration to the fact that you are the police commissioner.
23:06Yeah.
23:07And their grandmother's the mayor in the middle of a tough re-election campaign?
23:10Actually, they did know that.
23:13They used the debate as a diversion.
23:15Well, that doesn't make me feel any better.
23:17I think what is really troubling me here is this has become a pattern.
23:27Rocco's lied to us before.
23:29With Charlotte?
23:30Yeah.
23:31He was secretly keeping in touch with her when she was in Prague.
23:34He got in contact with Ulbricht and met up with her.
23:37And we know he's secretly seen Brit.
23:39And Charlotte was right there every step of the way.
23:44I'll have to address all that later on.
23:48Right now, we got to get Rocco out of this.
23:52That may involve Danny and Charlotte.
23:56Come in.
24:03Hey.
24:04Nathan, what's wrong?
24:05Has something happened to Rocco?
24:06No, it's Charlotte.
24:13So, after the arraignment, were you and Rick able to get any information out of that ADA turner?
24:21She said Dalton came forward privately, had pictures of the damage that was done to the lab.
24:27Damage that was never once mentioned when Dalton was trying to get Rocco arrested by the police.
24:34Do you know if the PCPD looked into this?
24:39Not yet.
24:40Not yet?
24:41Then how were charges filed if they hadn't verified the evidence?
24:49Well, Turner said that, you know, she had to come forward fast because things were rolling really good, right?
25:02So, she didn't want to ignore Dalton because that means that they would favor Rocco.
25:08And his grandmother is the mayor?
25:10Yeah.
25:11Oh, and now his father is the police commissioner.
25:15It's a bad look, and she felt she had to pursue the new charges despite the plea deal with Rick.
25:23About Rick, can you really trust him?
25:26Most of the time, no.
25:28But as far as the situation with Rocco, I think I can.
25:32Why now?
25:32Because Rick is hell-bent on making peace with me.
25:39And right now, there's nothing more important than getting Rocco home safe.
25:46So, Drew found out about Portia changing the tests and held it over her head.
25:53Drew has proven to be pretty resourceful.
25:55Oh, it certainly explained the fallout between Drew and Curtis.
26:00So, let's say you're right, okay?
26:02That would be one hell of a bombshell to drop in the middle of court, wouldn't it?
26:06I mean, certainly enough to cast substantial doubt on Willow's guilt and blow the entire case out of the water.
26:14You are welcome, by the way.
26:18Your preemptive you're welcome spared me from having to thank you.
26:23I appreciate that.
26:24Great.
26:25Now it's your turn.
26:29You ready to talk about Danny and Rocco?
26:33Dalton has proven that he'll take matters into his own hands when he feels wronged.
26:38Which is all the more reason not to anger him even more by taking him away from the research.
26:45He's seen too much.
26:48Dalton may be privy to all our intel.
26:51But if he goes away, so do our problems.
26:58Meaning?
27:03Hi, Marco.
27:04If you don't mind, I need to speak to your father.
27:07Alone.
27:07Of course.
27:11Unless I will see you later.
27:15I'll give Dr. Jones your best.
27:17So what have I been accused of this time?
27:26Please.
27:27I have been the backbone of this operation.
27:31I came to you when Dalton wanted to double-cross you.
27:34I have given you everything.
27:36And this is my reward, watching you help that son-of-a-bitch Dalton railroad an innocent kid.
27:43I really hope we're doing the right thing.
27:47We are.
27:49Aren't we?
27:51I mean, it was one thing to talk about confessing.
27:54But being here, in the interrogation room, with the recording and the cops, it's all a little too real, you know?
28:03Yeah, it's a lot.
28:05And the possibility of ending up in juvie with Rocco right now is really hitting me.
28:09It's worth it if we do.
28:12And it's only fair.
28:12Rocco sacrificed himself for us.
28:15We're just doing the same thing.
28:17You're right.
28:19Now back in juvie, Bea.
28:20You're right.
28:50I have no idea what you're talking about, Agent Brennan.
28:56Well, uh, since we're being honest.
29:00Are we?
29:04You really come across this wine by accident?
29:11That wine was not in the Metro Court wine cellar.
29:15I had my sommelier hunt it down.
29:21Because I needed an excuse to knock on your door.
29:24No, you didn't.
29:27Not ever.
29:29I did.
29:30Because I didn't have the guts to come here and tell you that I was ready to put everything behind us.
29:37Good.
29:56Are you sure about this?
29:59It's not too late to back out.
30:02Oh, I'm not going to back out.
30:04I want to thank you both for coming in and giving your statements.
30:15Fortunately, I'm a little rusty on procedure.
30:18And as you're both minors, a parent or guardian needed to be present at the time your statement was given.
30:23Because they weren't your statements.
30:24So you're saying we confess for nothing?
30:27So police can't be trusted even when I do the right thing.
30:30Because that's what I'm hearing.
30:31How is that what you heard?
30:33At least this is over.
30:36You said you couldn't take our statements without our parents present.
30:40Yeah, that's right.
30:41Danny, who do you see?
30:44Yes.
30:45Now we can confess for real.
30:48Absolutely not.
30:48You two are being given a very generous second chance.
30:54Yeah, and we are not going to let you blow it.
31:00It's a great strategy, but it hinges on the cooperation of witnesses with the consent of their parents.
31:06And that is not going to be easy to...
31:10Jason.
31:18Hey, Alexis.
31:19Can you come down to the PCPD?
31:22I'm with Danny.
31:23Can you get here?
31:24What's going on?
31:26Danny is determined to go down with Rocco for breaking into that lab.
31:31I'll be right there.
31:33Let's go.
31:33Well, okay, where?
31:35To the PCPD.
31:37Why?
31:37It looks like we might not have to convince Danny of anything.
31:41I think he's going to confess.
31:53You should get that.
31:55I mean, the state of the world and everything.
32:00You should get that.
32:03Come on.
32:07Go for Brendan.
32:19Yeah, this is a conversation we have to have in a secure line.
32:22I'll call you from my office.
32:26Junior Falls, huh?
32:29Unfortunately so.
32:31It's okay.
32:33Nothing's more important than the WSB.
32:35Any chance you're going to be here when I get back?
32:46I don't think so.
32:49But I might be able to come back later tonight.
32:53Have fun at work.
32:54Here we go.
33:18Election results are starting to roll in.
33:21You've got this.
33:23I appreciate your optimism.
33:26It's more than optimism.
33:27It's...
33:28I believe in you.
33:30Thanks.
33:32So, why don't we...
33:36Get you...
33:42Re-elected.
33:44Right?
33:45And with any luck, Major C will burn down in flames.
33:55I'm afraid it's all out of our hands now.
33:59Sort of been the theme today, don't you think?
34:02That's how I feel about Rocco, that I just can't do anything to help him, you know?
34:09But I can't stop thinking about him sitting there all by himself in that detention center.
34:17Well, it might not be too long.
34:22Dalton could change his story or...
34:24Somebody could change it for him.
34:32Commissioner, Rick Lansing is upstairs in your office.
34:35He says it's important.
34:36All right, thank you.
34:37Rocco.
34:39Can you stick around?
34:40Yeah, I got it.
34:41Thanks.
34:41Yeah.
34:43Grandma?
34:48What are you doing here?
34:49I called her because you refused to let this go.
34:52I was hoping we'd never have to have this conversation, yet here we are.
34:56Danny, never, ever speak to police without an attorney present.
35:01And by attorney, I mean me or Diane, okay?
35:04Now, I would like to speak to you someplace else so we can have a conversation about...
35:08Oh, I have to do this.
35:10Look, I get you guys are trying to protect me, but Rocco's in trouble.
35:14So I'm going to take full responsibility on my part in this and get the truth on the record.
35:19That is very admirable.
35:21Yeah, but Rocco would do the same for me.
35:24I know that's what my mom would want me to do.
35:30It's your choice.
35:31I only just learned of Dalton's actions, the extent of his actions regarding Rocco's visit to the lab myself.
35:41I just learned that.
35:42So you weren't behind Rocco getting backstabbed in court?
35:46You of all people should know I would never sanction anything so reckless.
35:50It might bring attention to our work from the various authorities.
35:56I mean, it surprised me.
36:01But I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Dalton would do something so stupid on his own.
36:06Yeah, yeah.
36:07I mean, Dalton is becoming more unruly with each passing day.
36:12Well, I'm relieved that you didn't have anything to do with what happened to Rocco.
36:15Oh, I was unpleasantly surprised as you are, albeit for different reasons.
36:23Now, that said, Rocco could have ruined everything if he uncovered evidence of what we were hiding.
36:32Rocco wouldn't have understood what he was seeing, even if he did.
36:36Right, right.
36:38Do you think your connection to him had anything to do with his unauthorized presence there?
36:44I don't think Rocco even knows that I work there.
36:48And I wouldn't breathe a word to anyone about what we're doing.
36:53Music.
36:54Music to my ears.
36:56But Dalton has made this personal now.
36:59And even though Rocco technically isn't my son, he means more to me than any of this.
37:05Meaning?
37:06Meaning, if you don't put a leash on Dalton and get him to drop the charges, today, I'm going to torch the entire operation.
37:23What's going on?
37:23Is Rocco okay?
37:24Did something happen?
37:25As far as I know, Rocco is fine, and he's going to stay that way.
37:28I have a way to save him.
37:32Before, when it was a misdemeanor that Rocco undeniably committed, it made sense for you to stay quiet, because your silence protected both you and Charlotte.
37:41Better one of you take the fall than all three.
37:44But now, Dalton has escalated this to destruction of property and reckless endangerment.
37:55He's manufactured evidence, and now Rocco's facing felony charges that could land him in a juvenile facility, as well as having a record that follows him for the rest of his life.
38:07If you both come forward with your statements, it'll corroborate Rocco's story, and it'll prove that Dalton's statement was a fabrication.
38:15Now, once we've established that Dalton's falsified the evidence, the DA's office is going to be forced to prosecute him for filing a false report and obstructing justice.
38:25We're going to turn the tables on Professor Henry Dalton and make him the defendant.
38:31On the next General Hospital, do you really think that Danny and Charlotte can save Rocco?
38:40I have a feeling that you have a way to make that happen.
38:42Will I lost suffice?
38:45What if we just got out of here?
38:47I am your savior.
38:48Will you do that for me?
