00:00Okay, buddy. Come on, why don't we come over here?
00:02Oh, all right. Wow.
00:03Kim, did you rescue all these dogs or Henry Dalton?
00:07Yeah. Emma and I got a tip that led us
00:08right to a second lab he had off campus.
00:10They were all there.
00:12And you brought them here?
00:13Yeah, I'm sorry we barged in like this,
00:15but the shelters are closed for the night,
00:17and my grandmother's HOA would immediately kick us out
00:20if I walked in with this many dogs.
00:22We didn't have anywhere else to bring.
00:23I know it's a lot to ask, but...
00:26can we keep in here tonight?
00:28Oh, okay. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:29Wait, wait, stay there. Stay there, buddy. Stay there.
00:31One thing, an issue that's just a little bit more important
00:34with where the dogs spend the night.
00:37Rocco is currently facing felony charges,
00:39and you two just made him an accomplice
00:41to every law that you just broke.
00:49I really hated not spending Thanksgiving here with you
00:52and being forced to witness Drew and Willow's wedding.
00:55It was nauseating.
00:56But it was worth it.
00:59We got Scott to spend the night with us.
01:02I know.
01:03When she got here, her whole face lit up
01:05when she was talking about her flower girl duties.
01:07It was really sweet, I have to say.
01:09Made my day.
01:10Mine too.
01:11Honestly, that was the best part.
01:13How excited she got when she caught that bouquet.
01:16What was the worst part?
01:17Everything else.
01:20Drew got what he wanted.
01:21He wanted Willow to be his wife.
01:23He wanted me to be his lawyer.
01:25And he knows very well that I'm going to do my damnedest
01:28to get her acquitted.
01:29Otherwise, we're going to lose all access to Scout.
01:31How's that going?
01:33Well, I have some promising areas to pursue,
01:36but I really can't get into that right now.
01:38The one thing that Drew and I agree on
01:40is that we both believe Willow is innocent.
01:43And that means the real shooter is out there somewhere.
01:48You know, if you want to be alone, I can take off.
01:52No, I don't want you to go.
01:55I'm just checking.
01:56I know you've had a very rough day.
01:59Yeah.
02:00I mean, this isn't my favorite Thanksgiving.
02:04My mom is pregnant.
02:07And she didn't even tell me.
02:08No one told me.
02:11That's crazy.
02:12And then I find my dad and Jordan kissing
02:14right before the cops show up
02:16to take him in for questioning about Drew's shooting.
02:19This is the worst holiday ever.
02:22Well, what can I do?
02:28You're doing it.
02:31Just being here.
02:33You lied to Detective West?
02:35About what, specifically?
02:38About the hour that I spent here
02:41the night Drew was shot.
02:42I told them that
02:43I was here alone.
02:46I was not.
02:49Who were you with?
02:51Selena Wu.
02:54Curtis, you despised that woman.
02:57What could you possibly have been
02:58meeting with her about?
03:00I wanted her to kill Drew.
03:01Can I get a margarita?
03:15I'm extra spicy.
03:15Okay.
03:16Thanks for coming.
03:31Thanks for coming.
03:33No problem.
03:34What's going on?
03:36Just got back from seeing Maxie.
03:39I was wondering when I would run into you.
03:43Cody Bell?
03:44Me?
03:45Have you gotten even handsomer?
03:48Eh, guilty.
03:49You're looking pretty good too.
03:51You know, for a dead woman.
03:52I don't know.
03:53Hello?
04:14I'm sorry.
04:14i had a feeling you'd be stopping by aren't you going to invite me in no i'm afraid that
04:34you've wasted a trip please reconsider i really don't want my next top to be the police
04:44very prudent madam mayor very prudent oh yes and congratulations on your victory another
04:52term in office you must be really excited about the challenges ahead what do you want so much for
04:58the small talk what would your constituents think if they knew that you defended your grandson by not
05:07only publicly confronting professor dalton but by killing him i did nothing of the sort
05:16really well then how do you explain this
05:22i have been working like crazy trying to defend rocco and then you two show up here
05:34further implicating him with stolen property hey they're dogs not property okay the law unfortunately
05:41is not going to see it that way emma and we didn't steal them rick yeah that's right we liberated
05:46them oh i'm sorry you see it the way you want to see it but the police are going to see it the way
05:50it is okay it's it's it's larceny it's it's it's conspiracy it's breaking and entering on rick
05:56emma and jill saw something wrong and they took action to save these dogs and there's something
06:02you know against dog abuse was dalton abusing them you know was he beating them was he was he
06:11starving them no he had them locked up in cages waiting for them to be experimented on yeah they
06:15were suffering and what dalton was doing to them is immoral yeah well unfortunately morals and law
06:19don't always work in tandem look none of us like what dalton was doing but animal testing is not
06:25generally illegal what you two did is but if dalton left town he's not going to call the police right
06:31he probably doesn't even know the dogs are missing if no one saw emma and geo there they could still
06:36be in the clear hello
06:38let's catch up unless you're planning on conning me again i don't con people anymore i left that life
07:01behind what you're a stand-up guy now that's so boring you know as fun as this is standing here
07:09being insulted i think i'm gonna go wait wait wait wait okay i'm sorry good for you on the whole like
07:17self-improvement thing got any tips none that top coming back from the dead got yourself a clean slate
07:25you're a useless tool i could do your work and my own dalton you're sloppy and you lie who needs that
07:35i'm afraid i have to agree
07:37um you'd be surprised
07:44well try me you know one of my many improvements since you left is listening
07:51how about we just have a good laugh instead you can try that as well but uh not exactly in the best
07:59of moods right now you know i picked up on that see i can be perceptive what's the problem well i'm
08:06waiting for someone and it it looks like she's not going to come
08:10well looks like we're just gonna have to cheer each other up
08:16you know i think the kids are just happy to be in the same room with with maxi
08:22um you know i think finally uh getting to see their mother again that
08:29well that was that was that was good for the kids
08:32good for mac and felicia too
08:36what about you i know seeing maxi should make me
08:44happy
08:46but it doesn't
08:51kills me every time
08:56well the police already released your dad that's a good sign
09:00yeah i mean i'd like to believe that
09:06but they had to have a good enough reason to bring him in the first place especially on
09:14thanksgiving is it possible that maybe they just wanted to clear him
09:17i don't know
09:19i just feel so helpless
09:26and i can't i can't just stand by while my family unravels there has to be something that i can do
09:35there is you and i can figure out who really shot true
09:39selena woo left port charles after the fire at charlie's pub
09:44she came back at my request
09:46because you wanted her to kill drew kane
09:49yes for a million dollars
09:52oh my god
09:54oh my god
09:59what am i hearing
10:01why are you telling me this
10:03because you defended me so passionately at the pcpd
10:07i wasn't going to repay your good faith in me by lying to you
10:11so instead you make me an accomplice after the fact
10:13okay okay come here
10:17i got you all right fine
10:19come okay hey come on baby
10:20come on let's we're going this way now
10:21so uh
10:23these are
10:26henry dalton's dogs
10:28i mean you've done it again man
10:32you you brought your little brother into another potential crime
10:35dad gio and emma just got here with the dogs
10:38i didn't know anything about it before this i swear
10:41is that true
10:41yeah
10:42i got nothing to do with this
10:44didn't have anything to do with taking the dogs
10:47but it sure has something to do with them being here right now
10:49and i was surrounded by
10:50stolen property
10:52in fact
10:54everybody here is now party to the crime
10:57way to go
10:59gio i mean uh you brought
11:01your younger brother
11:02you know a dangerous situation
11:05and everyone else here
11:06i mean how
11:06how selfish are you
11:09in fact
11:10dante
11:10enough
11:14you were the only people in the house when he was shot
11:20other than drew and the shooter
11:21that makes us the closest thing to witnesses that exist
11:25yeah we've been over it
11:26but we need to go over it again
11:28maybe something will come to us something that didn't register at the time
11:31but will bring us to who the shooter is
11:34i know this is a long shot but i'm i'm just trying to help
11:37yeah i know
11:39and i appreciate you
11:41but
11:44what if i don't want to know who did it
11:46why wouldn't you
11:48because it looks more and more like one of my parents shot drew
11:52drew and willow got married so quickly my guess is that he convinced her that marrying him
11:56would persuade the jury she couldn't have shot him
11:58oh he definitely thinks that
12:03yeah but couldn't
12:04i don't know couldn't that go the other way
12:06i mean couldn't it look to the jury like drew's infatuated with willow and and willow's just playing him
12:12that's the risk but drew refuses to hear any of my arguments
12:16what about willow
12:18i think he's convinced willow that marrying him is your only path to getting our kids back
12:23well he definitely knows what she wants to hear
12:25well whatever reasons they got married is none of my business
12:29what's good is that i genuinely believe that scout and willow are very fond of each other
12:36and at the end of a brutal day if that's that's a win i'll take it
12:41georgia and james are old enough to understand what's going on and it's i mean it's clear to me that they
12:46that they are clinging
12:49clinging to hope that maxi will make up and i'm so glad they are
12:54but i i i can't just help dwell on the alternatives
12:59okay what what are those
13:02either maxi will never open her eyes and just spend the rest of her life in some
13:08suspended state of animation
13:11or
13:13her condition
13:15deteriorates and
13:17and we lose her okay but she she is getting the best possible care and we just have to hope that it's enough
13:27yeah no and i and i i pray that you're right with that third possibility
13:32that you know that that blessed day that maxi wakes up and comes back to us
13:38i mean that
13:41i feel almost more like a fantasy not a potential reality
13:48we don't know
13:49so you have to focus on that third outcome it's the only thing that's going to get you through this
13:56yeah in theory
13:57but that that is i find that so much harder in practice today i i
14:03i just rather than cherishing the time i have with her
14:07i just feel trapped in this this question
14:12will there ever be more times to come
14:17it's really it's not funny
14:22oh come on you almost dating your cousin is a little funny
14:26it was heartbreaking
14:28took me months to recover
14:30well heartbreaking or not you managed to cheer me up
14:33well
14:34i'm glad my misery could amuse you
14:36if you uh want more to laugh at uh
14:39this winter i also
14:41got trapped on the rooftop of gh had to take my pants off
14:44oh checking for frostbite
14:46no i threw my pants over the side to signal that we were trapped
14:50oh my gosh that's so good
14:53oh whoa wait
14:54it's a fake man in your position could easily get that done we've all seen what ai can do
15:03ai yes indeed we have but
15:06we both know this is real
15:08and when law enforcement tries to authenticate it they'll find that too
15:13so if you finish trying to bluff your way out of this can we just get down to business
15:17sure
15:19where's the murder weapon
15:21excuse me
15:23well i know i didn't shoot professor dalton so
15:26i am assuming that you did unless of course you had one of your associates do it for you
15:30look at you so composed for one being accused of murder
15:34mr sidwell
15:35i have faced others like you
15:39in fact i've faced worse than you
15:43and you know what none of them are around anymore but i am
15:48did those people you faced down in the past have proof that you're a murderer because
15:56i do
15:59and
16:01not just you
16:03there he is
16:10the good friend sonny corinthos
16:12a man i hear has a reputation for violence and who had the same motive to murder dalton
16:19as you did
16:20as you did
16:20your grandson
16:21now it would have been enough for my purposes if you just incriminated yourself
16:27but i mean that was a real gift you incriminating sonny corinthos as well
16:35you know what dante
16:39forget about your badge for a second and just think about
16:44being a father
16:46i can't i can't do that dad
16:48i'm the acting police commissioner right now
16:50i can't just ignore evidence of a break-in
16:52and theft when it's staring me right in the face
16:54uh actually commissioner uh
16:56regarding any uh
16:57alleged crimes that may have been committed
16:59you are familiar with the uh
17:01the good samaritan law right
17:03it's where any person or in this case animal is in imminent danger
17:07citizens can't act on their behalf
17:09uh including entering private property in order to save them
17:12you think
17:13i'm gonna buy that or anyone else
17:15if
17:16emma and geo were to swear to that i don't see why you wouldn't
17:19mr lansing's right
17:20and we were walking home from the brown dog bar when we heard the dogs crying and barking
17:25yeah it sounded like they were in pain it was awful
17:27so we followed that noise to a random building and that's when we saw the dogs trapped inside
17:31and we knew we had to get them out
17:33where where was a random building i mean what street was it on at least
17:37i don't remember
17:38why don't you call 9-1-1
17:40well we should have but it all just happened so fast
17:42we were acting on instinct
17:44and the most important thing is that we saved all the dogs
17:53both of my parents have been acting weird lately
17:55and i know that we've had suspicions about my mom but
17:58i'm starting to wonder
18:00my dad was the one who actually shot drew
18:03other than the police wanting to talk to him
18:05why do you think that
18:06okay
18:06remember
18:07aunt stella came over the night of the shooting
18:09and she thought maybe my dad was the one who shot drew
18:12because she couldn't get a hold of him
18:14i thought she was crazy
18:15i can believe that your dad would shoot drew in anger
18:18but i'm not so sure about your mom
18:21i know my parents would do anything
18:23to protect me
18:24and if one of them shot drew
18:26i'm the reason they did it
18:29i'm sorry i got you involved
18:31look
18:33drew can't retaliate against me
18:35so he blackmailed portia
18:37he threatened her career
18:38and then he came for my aunt stella
18:39that is my family
18:41and it is my duty to protect them
18:43i don't deny that you had motive
18:46or that you could have gotten your hands on edward quartermane's gun
18:49but i know you curtis
18:50you wouldn't murder drew in cold blood
18:53and you wouldn't pay selena wu to do it for you
18:55what makes you so sure
18:56what's wrong
18:59looking for my phone
19:01i realize i haven't checked it in forever
19:02which has been oddly refreshing
19:04oh i know where it is
19:07i saw it over here
19:08oh you have a text from cody
19:13he is at the brown dog
19:14and wants to meet you
19:15christina mind your business
19:17yeah christina mind your business
19:19okay
19:19do you remember what happened last time you interfered
19:21yes of course i do
19:23and that's why i am being so nosy
19:25i know i never should have paid cody to seduce ava
19:28and i know how much that really hurt you
19:30please let me make it up to you
19:32how
19:34okay i'm gonna drag you upstairs

19:49not only did geo drag rocco into this mess
19:57it's like he hasn't learned from any of his mistakes from the other times
20:00it's a victimless crime
20:02you heard rick it's no crime at all
20:05as a matter of fact it's a good samaritan situation
20:08i mean but dalton skipped town right
20:11those dogs were being abused they need help
20:14okay yeah for all we know dalton could be back here tomorrow
20:17i knew there was a risk that you might call the police when you discovered dalton's body
20:25but fortunately
20:26you called corinthos instead
20:28i'm sure you were delighted
20:31i know that
20:33sunny corinthos
20:35you involving him
20:36it complicated things for you
20:37so
20:37i'm here
20:38to make things simple again
20:40as long as you cooperate
20:42no one need ever know
20:44what part you played
20:45in dalton's demise
20:46i didn't play any part in it
20:49well so you claim
20:50but goodness knows what other evidence
20:52might come to light suggesting otherwise
20:55oh oh okay
20:57yeah i guess this is your
20:59your cute little way of
21:01telling me that you have more
21:03fabricated evidence that you can use against me whenever you want

25:17sam a lot today too i mean i think about her every day of course but today especially she loved
25:24thanksgiving no holidays just aren't the same without her
25:27but you know how proud she would be of you for all the love and support that you have shown your sister
25:39and me
25:45you said you asked selena back to poor charles and offered her a million dollars to kill drew
25:50but you haven't said that you actually went through with it
25:57selena agreed to do the job
26:00but in the end i couldn't go through with it
26:04she didn't get her million dollars i never transferred it
26:07i knew it i didn't want a murder on my conscience and besides i didn't want selena
26:12woo to have that kind of power over me
26:13because you are a better man than drew kane you have morals you know the difference between right
26:19and wrong yeah well don't give me too much credit that man could drop dead right now and i wouldn't
26:24shed one tear but i realized that uh if i were responsible and then i got caught that it would
26:32destroy my family and i have a beautiful daughter and i now know that i have a child on the way
26:38and i can't let drew kane or or selena woo or anyone take that away from me
26:46this whole thing with geo i mean it is like it's like it's tearing our family apart dad i mean
26:52i mean rocco was a shy kid he never stepped out of line you know and then he he gets alcohol
27:00poisoning almost dies and gets arrested all in a span of a few months he's growing up
27:07you knew he wasn't a state kid forever yeah there's something else
27:12we got in a big argument because i told him i wanted him to stay away from geo and he kind of
27:22exploded on me said some things that really cut pretty deep
27:30it's nothing like the gut punch of hearing someone say out loud all the things you already
27:36know that are the worst parts of you all the things you don't want other people to see
27:44then hearing it come from your own son sorry about that i mean
27:50i know how much that can hurt yeah it hurts because it's true
27:58i did leave him and his mom twice
28:01but no matter how bad i feel about that i can't give in to him because i just i just think he's
28:08gotta he's gotta stay away from geo geo and rocco have a real special bond you're not gonna be able
28:15to keep them apart i don't even think that's the answer lulu said the exact same thing to me
28:23like i told you before you forget your badge think of this as a as a father
28:31you have two sons and they both need their dad
28:38what brings you to my home uninvited
28:42well good evening to you too mayor councilman boyle will act as my intermediary
28:51i don't know why i'm surprised i mean it's always been clear that the two of you were working
28:55together okay so uh what orders will ezra be delivering should i just resign um maybe push
29:05for a special election then you can install ezra as the mayor no no no don't be ridiculous
29:13he lost poor charles doesn't want him
29:16i need you you get things done and what things are you expecting all those details will come to
29:26light soon enough just know that ezra here will communicate my instructions and you will then
29:33execute people are going to be suspicious if they see ezra and me working together closely maybe at the
29:40beginning sure but these things are easily explained politics strange bedfellows that kind of thing
29:48so what do you say do we have a deal
29:57get out of my apartment it's been a long day and you have a lot to think about
30:04but i am confident that a woman of your intelligence will recognize that this is the best situation for all of us
30:17you know you once told me that you could never be bought
30:24and i once told you that everyone has their price i think i just discovered yours
30:34i will be in touch
30:48oh my god
31:00there's still one thing unaccounted for
31:03the time between when i left here and you met me at the brown dog bar

31:30i believe you
31:33i know what a good man you are
31:34you can count on me if one of your parents shot drew how would that be on you
31:43this all started when my mom changed how the rubber's test results to keep her in the prison
31:47and to protect me from there drew found out and started blackmailing her then the hatred between
31:54between drew and my parents just spiraled out of control yeah but your mom saved drew's life in the
31:58or when he was shot why would she shoot him only to save him later i don't know maybe maybe out of
32:05guilt okay let's let's look at this another way would your parents your parents really let someone like
