00:03Oh
00:49Hi dad
00:53It's so nice to see you
00:54I had no idea that you were stopping by
00:57And I know you're really busy
00:59But I wanted to share some good news with you
01:01Oh please
01:03Aiden finally passed his driver's test
01:05Oh he did
01:06Oh thank god
01:09And good for him
01:10And good for you by the way
01:13Your days of being a chauffeur are over
01:15Yeah that's
01:17True
01:17Now he's in full savings mode
01:20And he's begging me to take him car shopping
01:22Because he's obsessed with finding
01:24The right one
01:26Huh
01:27I didn't realize he was that into cars
01:29Oh yeah
01:30That's all he talks about these days
01:32That's really interesting
01:33I know right
01:34Yeah
01:35I have no idea who he gets that from
01:38I do
01:39His grandfather Luke
01:46Hey
01:47Hey
01:47Hey
01:47Is everything alright with Donna
01:48Yeah I just dropped Donna off at school
01:51I knocked at the front door
01:52You didn't hear me I guess
01:54Oh
01:55But is everything okay
01:56Donna says she left her lunchbox in the foyer
01:59While she was putting on her coat
02:01So I told her I'd come
02:03You know
02:03Get the lunchbox
02:04And bring it back to her
02:05Okay
02:05Well her lunch time
02:07Isn't for a couple hours
02:08So do you want to have a cup of coffee with me
02:10Corinto's coffee
02:11Uh if I had anything else
02:13My whole system would shut down
02:15Yeah I guess I'll take a cup
02:17Okay
02:19Where'd this come from
02:22Donna found that
02:23You're not teaching her to gamble are you
02:26She's not old enough to count cards
02:28But when she is
02:30That's not funny
02:35I found it in a box
02:36And when I was moving into the new house
02:38And I gave it to Donna
02:40What
02:41You better take that home with you
02:43Donna's gonna cover it in glitter
02:45Or she's gonna learn how to play Texas Hold'em
02:47And I don't need either headache

03:31Ordinary occurrence

06:02this isn't working you were right
06:04right about what this isn't my dad don't you let's go
06:30i know
06:32I know.
06:44Who are you?
06:46I'm starting to rent those open.
06:48Whoa, whoa, whoa.
06:49Hey, hey.
06:49You're out of here.
06:51Hey.
06:52What do you think you're doing?
06:55What do you think you're doing?
06:57This is where my family lives.
06:59My sister, her children, my wife, my son.
07:01Tommy, calm down, okay?
07:03Don't go crazy on me.
07:05What do you want to give the neighbors a show?
07:10That's better.
07:13Now, as I understand it, we've got business to do.
07:17We do not do business here, ever.
07:20You do not come to my house.
07:22You do not speak to my friends.
07:24And under no circumstances do you ever go near my family.
07:27Do you understand?
07:29Taking a trip down memory lane?
07:32Well, you know, it's hard not to, looking at this.
07:35I spent a lot of time on the Haunted Store.
07:37Yeah.
07:38When I first met Luke,
07:42I would have guessed that we ended up where we did.
07:47Luke was more than my friend.
07:50He was my brother.
07:53It was so good to my mother.
07:54When he wasn't driving Bobby crazy.
07:58Yeah.
07:59Well, Luke thought she hung the moon.
08:03Me?
08:04Not so much.
08:06Not so much.
08:07I don't care about the LQ.
08:10But I do.
08:10See, if you just turn it over to me and I'll take care of everything and you can just wipe
08:15your hands of the whole deal.
08:17Why would I do that?
08:19Because we're family, Caroline.
08:21Oh, really?
08:21Since when?
08:22Since you were born.
08:25How about a little Spencer solidarity?
08:30Church is the last place my dad would ever be.
08:34We didn't even get married in one.
08:36So what do you suggest?
08:38We go to Atlantic City, Vegas, what, to find some random casino?
08:43Since that's where you and my dad got hitched.
08:45You know, the first time.
08:48Hitched.
08:50Nice way of putting it.
08:52My dad tricked you into marrying him when you were drunk beyond belief.
08:56So yeah, I think hitched is actually pretty generous.
09:00But here you have the beginning of a complicated, tumultuous, and oh-so-beautiful relationship.
09:14Good morning, beautiful.
09:16How do you like your coffee?
09:18No.
09:20Welcome to our honeymoon, you wild cat.
09:23There is not enough alcohol in this world that would ever make me marry you.
09:30Consider the evidence.
09:37We are going to stay married till death do us part.
09:41Just a little bit more of that good old...
09:46Oh, Spunky.
09:50Forget the casino.
09:52I have a better idea.
09:58Are you coming?
10:05Alright, I have got to get to Bobby's.
10:08Yeah, I'll bring Donna, her lunchbox.
10:11Thank you for taking care of Donna.
10:12Yeah.
10:12And, um, thanks for talking to me about Luke.
10:17You know, it was...
10:19It was nice.
10:20Yeah, it was.
10:24Bye.
10:49I told you it was too early.
10:51Nonsense.
10:52The door was open, so somebody has to be here.
10:55I told you.
10:57We're closed.
10:58See?
11:01Well, actually, we are here to celebrate somebody very dear to us.
11:06Somebody that we...
11:08We loved and lost.
11:10Sorry to hear that.
11:12But you can't stay.
11:14Come back at five when we open.
11:26Pricey remembrance.
11:28It was worth every penny.
11:30Just promise you won't let anybody else in.
11:32And that you won't do any damage.
11:35Do we look like the type to trash a bar?
11:40Her?
11:40No.
11:42You?
11:44Definitely.
11:47I feel seen.
11:48I'll make sure she behaves.
12:06Now what?
12:08Now we toast.
12:10What was that drink again?
12:12Oh, I think the better question is what wasn't his drink.
12:38What a life we led, huh?
12:41Together and apart.
12:44What do you think of Lulu?
12:49Lulu?
12:51That's my alter ego.
12:53My secret identity, Lulu.
12:55Well, yeah, but Lulu and Lucy Johnson are my favorite secret identities.
12:59That way she can be named after her mother and her grandmother at the same time.
13:04Leslie Lulu.
13:06Leslie Lulu.
13:06How about just Lou?
13:08You know, Leslie Lou.
13:10Boy named Sue, girl named Lou.
13:14Leslie Lou.
13:18I love it.
13:20I love it.
13:21I love it.
13:21I love it.
13:24No one would ever accuse us of being boring.
13:29We burn too brightly for that.
13:33Even when we built a family, we never stopped being an adventure.
13:42That's because of you, my love, because you were a force of nature.
13:51You didn't just walk on this earth.
13:57You changed it.
14:00You changed me.
14:05I see you in our kids, of course, you know.
14:09In their fire.
14:13And in their stubbornness.
14:16And in their refusal to live life small.
14:22But there's more than that, actually.
14:25I see glimpses of you.
14:29Every day of my life.
14:32In every brave choice I make.
14:36Whenever I stand my ground.
14:39When I really feel like I want to turn and run.
14:45I think that's why it's so hard for me to accept that you're gone.
14:53It just...
14:56It feels wrong.
14:58Even saying it sounds like a lie.
15:02You know?
15:08I know you're not here on this earth with us anymore.
15:12But, Luke.
15:15You never left me.
15:18Never once.
15:20I feel your presence.
15:23When life gets too heavy.
15:26When I feel like I can't go one more step.
15:30It's your voice that I hear.
15:33Calling me angel.
15:38Reminding me of who I am.
15:42And then somehow I...
15:44I find the strength.
15:47And I do go on.
15:50Because what we had, Luke.
15:54Was never really over for me.
15:58It just transformed.
16:00It just transformed.
16:02Because our hearts are bonded together beyond time.
16:10Beyond loss.
16:12Beyond this lifetime.
16:16Nothing can change that.
16:19Nothing.
16:25Thank you for the dance.
16:30Thank you for the adventure.
16:34And thank you for the love of a lifetime.
16:40Thank you for the love of a lifetime.
16:53Scotch.
16:54How about you drink rum?
16:57Actually, I think his favorite drink was whatever you got.
17:00Well, rum and Scotch are both available.
17:04So how about a little bit of each in separate glasses, please?
17:09Thank God.
17:11Your father was the textbook definition of a renegade.
17:17No one was going to tell him who to be or what to do.
17:22Lord knows I tried.
17:24Well, you are pretty mad at somebody.
17:30You for treating your life with such callous disregard.
17:34I am furious at you that you refuse to put me, your children, or anybody else ahead of your infantile
17:42insistence on living life on your terms.
17:46Why, for God's sake.
17:48You're supposed to know me better than anybody.
17:51So I had a couple of heart attacks.
17:55All right, three.
17:59So what am I supposed to do?
18:00Roll up into a ball and not be me?
18:10Wow.
18:13That is...
18:18Switch.
18:27I'm not sure which is worse.
18:30I'm not sure.
18:31This is the best way to honor your father.
18:34He did have a drinking problem.
18:36Well, don't tell him that.
18:38Too late.
18:38Your father chased his demons.
18:41He even caught up with a few.
18:43Just not the one that liked to drink with him.
18:46But that spark in his eye.
18:50He came back.
18:53Your father would not, could not be kept down.
19:02Oh, good afternoon, Madam Mayor.
19:05Hi, Carly.
19:06Can I give you some coffee?
19:07Oh, please.
19:08Great.
19:10Already been a day, huh?
19:11Ugh.
19:12And then some.
19:13But it's nice to see you.
19:15Nice to see you.
19:16So are you meeting someone?
19:18No, no.
19:19I just took a moment for myself.
19:21Just coming up for air.
19:23Everything okay?
19:26For some reason, I've been thinking an awful lot about Luke today.
19:29I don't know why.
19:31That's so funny.
19:32Sonny and I were just talking about him earlier.
19:34Really?
19:36Hmm.
19:37Maybe it's something in the air.
19:39Or an anniversary or a birthday that we missed?
19:42No, I don't think so.
19:45Well, then again, you don't need a special occasion to miss someone, do you?
19:49No, you certainly don't.
20:03Sonny, what are you doing here?
20:05Well, I could ask you the same thing.
20:06I saw your car up front and bars closed.
20:09I thought maybe you might be hitting, you know, car trouble.
20:12No, no, no car trouble.
20:13And you're right, the bar is closed.
20:18Lulu felt that she never really grieved Luke.
20:22So we're doing it here today by celebrating.
20:27That's nice.
20:29Well, I don't want to interrupt.
20:32I'll let you guys go.
20:34Sonny, wait.
20:36Jen, how did you say just this?
20:40You love my dad, too.
20:42Yeah, I did.
20:43I still do.
20:46Why don't you join us?
20:51Scott, your room.
21:03So, how was it?
21:05Oh, delicious.
21:05So fresh.
21:07Great.
21:07Carly, thank you for keeping this place going.
21:11I do it for my mom.
21:13I mean, this place was so important to her.
21:17And to Luke.
21:26Luke, just listen.
21:29I love you.
21:31And I want to be your wife.
21:35You still have me.
21:38Please face me.
21:41Luke, please.
21:43Face me.
21:47You still love me.
21:50I can see it in your eyes.
22:02I can see it in your eyes.
22:22Emma, is everything good?
22:25Yeah.
22:25It's shockingly quiet around here.
22:27Excellent.
22:28I'm going to take off a few minutes early.
22:31There's some place I need to be.
22:43Your dad gave Tracy a run for her money.
22:47Literally.
22:49You don't have to look so amused by it.
22:51It all worked out in the end, yeah.
22:53Yeah, but in the beginning?
22:55Okay, yes.
22:56It got off to a rocky start, but dad ended up falling in love with you.
23:01Um, hopelessly.
23:03A couple so wrong it turned out so right.
23:09Can we just talk about how much he got away with?
23:13The list is so, he blew up the high start.
23:16That man never answered for a single con, a single disguise,
23:21because he was so damn charming.
23:23Sounds like somebody else I know.
23:25Did you just call me charming?
23:29Oh, hearing these stories, it makes me miss my dad a little less.
23:36I got a million of them.
23:39Maybe.
23:40But nobody has more than I do.
23:43Mom.
23:44Hey, sweetheart.
23:46This was such a wonderful choice.
23:48I think, well, your dad would have felt right at home here.
23:53Right.
23:54Thanks.
23:56Nice to meet you.
24:02Janice will be here soon to help you out.
24:04Have a nice evening.
24:05You too.
24:26Are you calling me a liar?
24:28No.
24:29I'm calling you a Spencer.
24:30Through and through.
24:32You came out of the womb ready to rumble.
24:35You don't suffer fakes or fools, and I appreciate that.
24:40You think you know me so well, huh?
24:43I know me.
24:45And I know that if some arrogant cop and his lovestruck girlfriend
24:49have got one of my kids thrown in the slammer,
24:53I'd wait years if I had to.
24:55Crawl over broken glass and hot tar to get my revenge.
24:59Does that sound familiar?
25:17What happens?
25:29Dad always told me nothing ventured and nothing gained
25:34when it came to two things, cards and love.
25:39Leave it to him to love cards with love.
25:43I don't know about that.
25:45I think there's a lot of luck involved in both, wouldn't you say?
25:49To love.
25:50To love.
25:55I, Lucas Lorenzo Spencer, did the Laura Weber Baldwin
26:02to be my wedded wife,
26:05to have and to hold
26:07from this day forward
26:10for better, for better, for worse,
26:13for richer, for poorer,
26:17in sickness and in health,
26:20to love and to cherish
26:24till death be lost, Mama.
26:27Of all the random places to meet, Sonny, I...
26:33Okay, this is an interesting group.
26:35What's going on here?
26:36Lulu never got a chance to mourn her father.
26:38That's what we're doing tonight.
26:40Thought maybe you'd want to be part of that.
26:42I'm sure this is why
26:43we were all thinking of Luke today.
26:46I think you're right.
26:47Mm-hmm.
26:47Oh, why did you give this back to me?
26:53I didn't.
26:55You must have.
26:56I found it in my purse
26:57when I was leaving Bobby's.
26:59Whoever put it there, it wasn't me.
27:05Hi, everyone.
27:06Hi.
27:06Hey, you made it.
27:08Yeah.
27:08Great.
27:09Well, you said you were celebrating Luke.
27:11As his former daughter-in-law
27:13and mother of his grandchild,
27:14I wanted in.
27:16Well, then pull up a chair.
27:17Okay.
27:19Scotch or rum?
27:21Oh, are those my only options?
27:22No.
27:23I'm just trying to get rid of mine.
27:30You know, in some cultures,
27:32people believe that, uh,
27:36you die twice.
27:39One when you take your last breath
27:41and then
27:43when your name is mentioned
27:45for the last time.
27:47Does it matter
27:49if you use the actual name
27:50or could
27:51jackass
27:52suffice?
27:53Because then
27:53Luke would live on forever.
27:57Well, I guess
27:58we all mourn
28:00in our own ways.
28:01And everyone's rituals
28:02are very different.
28:03Right.
28:04And we all have them
28:05in our own way.
28:08You know,
28:09I've seen people celebrate,
28:10I don't know if you have,
28:11like,
28:12with lanterns.
28:13Hmm.
28:14They put them out to sea
28:15and
28:16in remembrance.
28:17Oh.
28:18Oh, I love that.
28:19Yeah.
28:20Sounds beautiful.
28:25You know, sweetie,
28:27sometimes we act like you say
28:29one final goodbye
28:30and that's it.
28:33And sometimes,
28:35in some situations,
28:37it is.
28:39but with your dad,
28:41it's a little bit more
28:42like see you later.
28:44Yeah.
28:46Sometimes,
28:48just hearing a certain tone
28:50in someone's voice,
28:52or I hear a song
28:54by one of his favorite artists,
28:56or sometimes I catch a scent
28:59and it smells
29:01just like
29:01one of his shirts.
29:03And it's like
29:04he's right there
29:05standing in the room
29:06with me.
29:08You know?
29:10May Luke be joined
29:12with his
29:12beloved
29:13haunted star.
29:15And may he
29:16always roll
29:17sevens.
29:22Luke's favorite.
29:25Great whiskey.
29:27Oh,
29:27thank you.
29:28Give me one more.
29:29Give me one down there.
29:31There you go.
29:35To Luke.
29:37To Luke.
29:38To Luke.
29:46This just feels right.
29:58I love you.
30:01I love you.
30:02I love you.
30:42See you later, Dad.
31:14That is a thing of beauty.
31:17I want you to have it.
31:18You can't give me a gun.
31:20I just did.
31:21But I can't let you go wherever you're going.
31:23You're going to be under harm.
31:25I'm not exactly defenseless.
31:27Quick wit, fast talking.
31:29You know what?
31:29It gets you so far, Luke.
31:31Look, Corinthos, that gun belongs in the life that we both chose.
31:36I'm walking away from that life.
31:38I got to find something else, something different while there's still time.
32:08I'll bake you some brownies.
32:10Your specialty I remember.
32:15Bet you I can make you laugh.
32:18Well, that'd be quite a feat.
32:21Go for it.
32:27Ta-da!
32:29Oh, I like the socks.
32:31Oh, thanks.
32:31Would you join a cult or you're working the G.H. Christmas bash, aren't you?
32:37Any chance you'd want to be my date?
32:41That's about the sweetest offer I've had this millennium.
33:02How'd everything go?
33:04Oh, ah, it was an interesting day.
33:08Productive?
33:09Yes.
33:11Very.
33:13And special.
33:15Well, all was quiet here, so I ran out and got your grandson a card.
33:20It's on your desk.
33:22Thank you very much.
33:46All right, do your thing.
33:48Focus now, darling.
33:50Focus.
33:50Keep relaxed.
33:51Breathe, breathe.
33:55Oh, oh.
34:09Laura, I want you to know that when I look at you now, I don't see that 18-year-old
34:15girl anymore.
34:17I see a woman, and she's magnificent.
34:22I'll always be proud you were my wife.
34:25I'll always be proud that you were my husband.
34:30And if I am magnificent, and if I am magnificent, as you say now, it's only because I spent the
34:37first half of my life with you.
35:04If you think relationship advice is going to give you another month of free rent, you're crazy.
35:10We agreed that my stay here would be open-ended and fully comped, and you know it.
35:15But get your head out of your shapely butt, because you know bullets and love don't mix.
35:21I'll take my chances going to Sonny's party.
35:25What, no Johnny, no escort?
35:28Michael wants me there, and I care enough about my family to make an appearance.
35:33No more room service, and I'm cutting off your spa treatments.
35:35I don't care about the spa.
35:40We're family, Caroline.
35:43Whether you believe it or not, I don't want to see you hurt.
35:47I don't care about it.
36:09We sure did not have picked him, didn't we, Mother?
36:13I know I'm nobody's idea of a great catch, but I'm better with you.
36:20I'm so much better.
36:23We're a perfect match.
36:25We work, damn it.
36:32So here I am before you, deeply flawed, offering you my broken body and my battered heart.
36:47And this.
36:53Won't you please wear it again?
37:04I'll do it all again.
37:19I'm confident that whatever life throws at you, you're smart and strong enough to handle it on your own.
37:28I mean, come on.
37:31You're a Spencer.
37:34And you'll always be my one and only baby girl.
37:43I love you, Luna.
37:59Thank you for giving me your luck.
38:05And your love, Dad.
38:34On the next General Hospital.
38:36What does that mean for you and me?
38:38That's not a fight that I'm willing to undertake.
38:40I don't like it here.
38:41Consider it dropped.
38:43I have news about Drew's attempted murder case.
38:45If we make another wrong move, heads will roll.
38:48No, don't do it!
