00:05well what do you think place looks incredible your brother's right christina how'd you pull
00:12this off last time we talked about charlie's you said it was going to be closed for good
00:16because of structural damage i thought it was but then someone special stepped in and
00:21help me fix this case up hey anybody home dad
00:38hey oh hey mom dad didn't mention that you're gonna be here too
00:47is something wrong is it the baby no no no the baby's fine sweetheart
00:52then what's going on why did you want to see me
00:56we wanted you to come by because the three of us we made this house a home together
01:04so it only seems right that we would say goodbye to it together
01:13mr taylor thank you for joining us of course i'm happy to help in any way i can i'm assuming
01:19this
01:19has to do with the investigation into true shooting yeah it does
01:23since willow kane's trial ended we've been reviewing all the evidence
01:26and in doing so something pointed us in your direction
01:33it is always such a pleasure to catch up with my granddaughter
01:37and using one of my mother's beautiful tea sets makes it all the more special
01:41is that what we're doing where we're catching up
01:44come on granny i know there's a reason you wanted to talk to me so go ahead spill
01:48why do i bother with pleasantries i don't know but i appreciate the effort
01:53okay
01:57chase's crusade against michael is causing discord in the family
02:03and where i in the past would have supported you without hesitation
02:07it's a luxury i can no longer afford
02:13hey dad how was the walk it was wonderful wonderful and if uh you listen carefully
02:18you'll hear the sound of my cardiologist cheering in the breeze
02:22where are olivia and leo uh they decided to take another lap around the grounds
02:27i felt like i'd heard enough about bark and snails
02:30or should i say phloem and cornu esparsum
02:35well good for you ned you're prioritizing your health just like you promised
02:39yes i am trying to and since we're on the subject of priorities
02:46why does it feel like yours lie more with your ex-wife than my daughter
02:55congresswoman if you would lean a little closer to your husband
03:02laura hi i didn't realize you'd be stopping by
03:05i'm so sorry i i didn't mean to interrupt your photo shoot
03:08no no you aren't
03:10i don't know i think my time is a little off on this one i'll see you soon
03:13well actually madam mayor i would like to get some shots of you and our new congresswoman
03:19it would be a wonderful way to start my term
03:22laura would you mind
03:48say goodbye to the house
03:50sweetheart we're getting a divorce
03:52the only thing left is some signatures and paperwork
03:58and the house
04:00honey we have to put it on the market
04:03we will divide the proceeds between us obviously
04:09i just i never thought about this part of your divorce
04:13i mean i guess it i guess it makes sense because you know you guys bought this house so that
04:18we can be a family and
04:20and we're not anymore so
04:21no no trina that's not true
04:24we're always gonna be a family
04:27it's just gonna look you know a little bit different now
04:30that's all
04:31your mother's right
04:32we'll always be here for you
04:34and
04:36porsha and i still care about each other as well
04:39that's right
04:39that's exactly right
04:40we didn't want to get to a place where we hated each other
04:45i also asked you here honey
04:48to give you the opportunity to
04:52is there anything that
04:53you might want in there that
04:54you want to take with you
04:58i already got the one thing that i wanted
05:05things between michael and chase have deteriorated
05:10and we just can no longer look the other way
05:15i assume you heard about their altercation in the nook
05:19i did
05:21and in the solarium
05:23it's completely unacceptable
05:25i agree
05:26and the last thing i want is for you to feel like you have to choose between michael and me
05:30excellent
05:31because monica entrusted me with a stewardship of this family and michael is
05:37monica and alan's grandson
05:40their legacy
05:42and asking him
05:43to vacate this home is not an option
05:48does that mean you're asking chase and me to move out
05:51no no no no
05:53no i'm asking how long you plan to referee this fight between your husband and your family
06:03i am not prioritizing willow over brooklyn
06:05that is ridiculous
06:07as ridiculous as you
06:09repeatedly coming to blows with michael and our family home
06:14this vendetta of yours
06:16is only hurting you
06:17and it's also not helping your career
06:19which in turn affects my daughter's well-being
06:22this isn't a vendetta
06:24willow was arrested for something she didn't do
06:27i couldn't stand by and do nothing
06:29i had to pursue it
06:30now see that's where you're wrong
06:32you didn't have to
06:33you chose to
06:37i came across a statement you gave the
06:39minor drew shooting
06:40do you remember what you told us at the time
06:43about who had keys to drew's house other than drew
06:45yeah i think so
06:50her nanny chelsea the cleaning lady and alexis
06:54nobody else could have had a key
06:55not that i know of
06:56no
06:57but someone else could have had one
06:59and nobody told me
07:00is it possible
07:01that one of those people could have been michael corinthos
07:08thanks to dad
07:09the new and improved charlies will be up and running in no time
07:13i asked you guys here so you could see it in person
07:15and i could tell you and see what you think
07:17i think the place is gorgeous
07:19and i can't wait for it to become my new hang
07:22i'm so happy for you
07:23yeah me too
07:25congratulations
07:26looks like dad really came through for you
07:28just like you always does
07:29yeah
07:30thanks i'm so grateful dad
07:32no problem sweetheart i'm just glad it worked out
07:35me too
07:37thank you guys i'm so grateful you carved out the time to come see this place
07:42i know you're so busy
07:43no i was glad to have the distraction
07:45my phone has been ringing non-stop all day
07:47same with mine
07:48my desk at crimson is utter chaos
07:51everyone keeps asking for a comment from nina
07:54about what
07:55they filled drew's seat
07:57wait the press conference happened already
08:01but i haven't heard anything from my mom
08:03because it wasn't your mother
08:07okay so then who filled drew's seat
08:11congresswoman willow came
08:17all right i think i got what we need
08:19great
08:20thank you very much for your time congresswoman and you as well madam mayor
08:24you're welcome thank you
08:27i am so happy to finally have a moment alone together
08:32i can't thank you enough for agreeing to participate in this photo shoot
08:35my office thought pictures withdrew would help the public adjust to the transition
08:40yes yes yes actually that's why i stopped by i would love to help guide you through this transition that
08:47is of course if you would like to have my help um it's my sincerest hope that you and i
08:55will be able to work together much more successfully than drew and i were ever able to
09:04and with that said forgive me but i must ask this question do you plan to work on behalf of
09:14the people you represent or do you plan to use your position as your husband did to settle your own
09:21scores
09:27you know this is the first of many things that the three of us are gonna have to navigate together
09:33yeah uh there's just a lot to think about um and i i don't know where to begin
09:40well okay how long do i have before you put the house on the market
09:49hey knock knock it's just little old me back to sell one of my absolute favorite properties in town
09:59picking willow to replace room makes absolutely no sense my mom is a lawyer she has way more experience
10:05definitely more than the woman who was on trial for trying to kill the man she's replacing
10:10i was just as stunned as you were now will she gave me no kind of advanced notice that she
10:15was
10:15even in the running to fill that seat did you think she would dad you're close with laura did she
10:21give
10:21you any idea why she changed her mind about this i love my husband and i respected the way he
10:30managed
10:30the office when it was his but the two of us are completely different people and i plan to serve
10:38my
10:38constituents above everything else
10:42i'm very glad to hear that and more than a little relieved actually
10:54drew
10:56look i know that you and i have had our differences but i want you to know that i
11:01i wish you a full and speedy recovery
11:05and i am praying for that not just for you but also for scout
11:13today the role of ezra boyle is being played by patrick scott lewis
11:23councilman boyle come on in
11:25i wanted to stop by and welcome you but i see that the mayor had the same thought
11:31great minds really do think alike don't they
11:36michael definitely wouldn't have a key to drew's house
11:39i don't know about wiley could michael have gotten a key through him
11:41wiley never had one either
11:43well is there anybody else who could have given michael a key to drew's house
11:49no there isn't
11:53all right guy uh i think that's all we need from you if they should come in
11:56yeah don't mention it if i could be of any more help just let me know
11:59all right
12:06well there you have it
12:08our final lead in determining whether or not michael could have had access to drew's home
12:13and it's a dead end
12:14yeah well and with the way michael voluntarily offered up his keys when we asked for them
12:19it's looking more and more likely that rick lansing was right
12:23somebody planted that key on michael's key ring
12:25not just anybody
12:28harris and chase
12:31brooklyn and i have had serious discussions about my decision to pursue willow's entrance
12:36and because of that our relationship has only gotten stronger
12:39and you really think that deep down brooklyn is okay with what you're doing
12:44i do and i know that because we have always had an open line of communication
12:49brooklyn knows that i'm doing what i think is right and she supports me
12:54because she's a good person and she wouldn't want an innocent woman convicted either
12:57who would
12:59but the trial is over
13:00i know that ned
13:01do you
13:02because willow has been acquitted and you are still at it
13:06which suggests to me that you are not letting this go
13:09and i'm afraid that there's no end in sight to
13:12her feeling torn between you and the rest of her family
13:18the stock between michael and chase has been really tough
13:21but i understand where each of them are coming from
13:24chase is a good man
13:26and if he believes that willow is innocent and michael is guilty
13:29i have to do my best to try and support him
13:32that is what we do for each other
13:33his quest has gone far beyond a noble pursuit of the truth his career has been damaged and
13:40he is actively trying to make sure michael is blamed for the shooting
13:44chase did not put that key on michael's keyring
13:49do you know that for a fact or is that what you want to believe
13:57oh i love love this place it's even more beautiful than i remember it but wait a minute doesn't
14:04time fly it seems like just yesterday that i was selling you this house from jack's
14:09doesn't it seem like no it really does
14:11oh wow wait a minute memory serves me right
14:15upstairs is the most exquisite view
14:19well come on let's go check it out
14:21i want to show you the updates we've made since the last time you've seen it
14:24oh wow thank you i would love to see what you've done with the place
14:32i didn't think this would be happening so soon
14:37it didn't you didn't feel great hearing her house be talked about like if it's some piece
14:41of real estate and not a place that we called home
14:51i understand where you're coming from but the last thing i would ever want to do is put brooklyn
14:56in a bad position that's exactly what you're doing my daughter loves you and you may think
15:02that you're making her a priority but you have to consider how it looks to the outside world i don't
15:07care what the rest of the world thinks well maybe you don't but in this family it's important okay
15:13and even if it's not the case it looks like you're choosing willow over brooklyn and your marriage
15:18and if i feel that way and mother feels that way you have to face the fact that brooklyn
15:24might feel that way too
15:28chase told me that he didn't plant that key on michael's key ring and i believe him because i
15:33trust him well i'm glad i still have my doubts because he did defy his superiors and launch his own
15:42secret investigation and now with the new allegations i'm not blind granny okay i know
15:47being alleged which is why i made it clear to chase after his recent fight with michael
15:57that he crossed the line with this whole key thing in fact i told him that i i can't move
16:03forward with our adoption plans unless he agreed to drop the whole thing
16:08and and he promised me he would chase chose me and our future family over everything else
16:16well if that's true i couldn't be happier for you
16:22is there any part of you that thinks that maybe he could be telling you what you want to hear
16:30i don't know why laura changed her mind i mean she's the mayor mayors make tough decisions
16:36so she probably has a good reason for this one i hope so because she just made the wrong one
16:41i mean i don't agree with her opinion but i still respect her position as the mayor
16:46and she's a good friend of mine she's gonna make it right with your mom
16:51i just feel so bad my mom must be so upset right now she was really letting herself get excited
16:57about the possibility of working with laura and for the people of port charles
17:03i guess we should just be thankful that you settled your custody situation with willow before
17:07she got this position knowing her she would have used this to go after the kids that may be resolved
17:12but i'm worried that will is going to use her newfound leverage as a congresswoman to
17:17ensure that i'm charged with true attempted murder
17:23oh i'm sorry i didn't realize you're all here i don't interrupt so i can just come back
17:27actually kai it's quite all right there's something i'd like to run past ezra out in the hallway
17:34and i for one can't wait
17:45okay look if you are here with instructions for willow from mr sidwell you need to stand down
17:52because it is both too soon and too transparent for her to be his mouthpiece right now give her a
18:01chance
18:01to find her footing you're not doing willow any good by trying to keep her away from sidwell's
18:09influence rejecting his suggestions and running this office the way she wants it to is not gonna end
18:16well for her look at what happened to dalton
18:22don't put willow in harm's way and laura
18:29please don't put yourself in harm's way
18:35how's drew's recovery going has he made any progress he's more or less the same
18:40well it takes the time it takes i guess the pcpd called me in today i just came from there
18:47oh what they want was it about drew they wanted to know how michael had a key to drew's house
18:57well chase denies planning that key i'm inclined to believe him but i have no proof one way or the
19:03other well there's so many people going in and out of the quarter mains anyways there's no way to
19:07definitively prove that chase did it just like there's no way to prove that michael corinthos is
19:13the one who shot drew cain we've hit our last dead end the investigation into drew's shooting
19:22is now officially a cold case
19:30not judgment you are talking to a man who has lost sight of what's important
19:34more than once and i have paid dearly for it i didn't always realize a good thing when i had
19:41it
19:41and i don't want you to make the same mistakes that i did i never thought of brooklyn as anything
19:48less than the most important person in my life but if i made any of her family believe otherwise
19:58i deeply regret it and i'll fix it immediately
20:05i think you're being unfair to chase by doubting him brooklyn i appreciate your optimism but i think
20:12that you are underestimating the potency of willow's victimhood if chase committed to me and our future
20:20family that is what he'll do he wants us just as much as i do once we adopt our baby
20:26all of this
20:27will be a distant memory
20:30i'm dropping this investigation is a big decision i agree but continuing this investigation would
20:35only be a drain on departmental resources and and to charge michael without proper evidence just to
20:40have someone to pin it on would be an abuse of prosecutorial discretion look i really do want to remain
20:47impartial considering i have a conflict of interest but uh yeah it does seem like we hit a wall with
20:55this a while ago yeah all right i if you guys think that that shelvin this is the right call
21:02i'll follow
21:03your lead yeah but you okay with that will is your niece i mean i'm sure you don't want her
21:08to
21:08live under suspicion well if i'm not guilty in a court of law that's probably about as good as
21:13willow's gonna get okay then we're all agreed this is no longer an act of investigation
21:24it's never easy to admit defeat and i believe we have the right suspect on trial willow kane
21:33and with double jeopardy attached she'll be able to walk around as a free woman
21:38and as our new congresswoman i sense some serious frustration coming off of detective west commissioner
21:45falconeri and ada turner they mentioned combing through the evidence again hoping something new
21:50surfaces from what it sounds like i think they hit a dead end that's unfortunate i still want the
21:58world to know who shot my husband but i appreciate you coming by to give me the heads up
22:06i mean i'm assuming that's why you stopped by yeah that that was part of it but i also wanted
22:12to
22:12congratulate you i assume that you'll want a fresh start and to hire your own interns and i'm happy to
22:17assist with your team's transitioning to support whoever you choose and i'm sure there'll be no shortage
22:22of candidates maybe but i was quite impressed with the way you stepped up and managed things in
22:28drew's office after his stroke you did exceptional work on his press release and drew always saying
22:35your praises i would really love it if you'd agree to stay on staff what do you say
22:44after everything willow has done she gets appointed a congressional seat while michael is at the center of
22:50an investigation and being talked about all over town in what world is that fair it's not and i
22:56know you're just trying to protect michael but we can't feed into his anger he only gets stuck in it
23:02we have to cool down the hostility between him and willow and not make it worse for the children's sake
23:10i know that you're right but i just i worry about him if he's charged and found guilty he could
23:15lose
23:15the kids i can promise you right now that's never going to happen he will never be prosecuted
23:21for shooting drew how do you know that because i'm going to handle it
23:29are you okay you seem like you're a million miles away right now
23:35i'm just worried about willow and her new position
23:39i don't blame you power can be a corrupting influence especially on someone with a track
23:46record like willow's and from everything you've told me willow has always leaned on someone if it
23:54wasn't you it was drew or chase or even nina or that cult guy but for the first time willow
24:06has the
24:06ability to stand on her own two feet which means we may see a version of her no one has
24:12before
24:14maybe she'll surprise us all
24:23hello
24:27yeah yeah i'll be right there
24:32that was the commissioner's office
24:36tante wants to see me do you expect me to believe that you suddenly have concern for willow
24:43or for me i mean because i just hate to break this to you but i'm not that easily manipulated
24:49that's
24:50not what i'm doing at all i don't want to see willow on the receiving end of sid will's wrath
24:56he is a fact of life that we all just need to accept that it's not a fact of life
25:04you're just on his
25:06payroll i am that's right i didn't understand the scope of sid will's influence until after i got involved
25:14with him his behaviors and decisions even shocked me and he has pressured me just like you into doing
25:23things that i didn't want to do and as a result of that i am deeper in sidwell's pockets than
25:30i ever
25:31thought i would be
25:37i'm really gonna miss that doc
25:41we had so many great times out there with your grandfather and aunt stella
25:50i remember that you wanted to live in a house by the water yeah i did
25:58i fell in love with this house the second lucy showed it to us but your father he wasn't so
26:05sure
26:07but then he bought it for me and that was the start of our of our life together
26:15it's just so sad imagine that coming back to this place on thanksgiving
26:21or pulling into the driveway when i need a night away from pcu
26:26and it's weird to picture this place empty and it's weird to think about somebody else living in
26:33here and honestly i hate it i know you do leaving a house can be hard
26:43because it feels like you're leaving all those moments that you built in that home
26:49those memories honey they stay with us and they're never going to fade as long as we keep talking
26:55about them and you know we're always going to do that you know when your father and i bought this
27:02place we're talking about how big it was and how that was a good thing because we were dreaming of
27:07growing our family and now we finally are it may you know look a little bit different
27:18but our dreams are still coming true
27:25i don't know how you do it but you made me feel better thank you and i know you're right
27:35just because the walls change doesn't mean the memories fade away exactly wow this view is just
27:44even more beautiful than i remember it's gorgeous and listen the improvements the upgrades you two
27:50have made here well it has just added a lot of value to this house hello kai texted uh he's
27:57coming
27:57up i'm just gonna step out okay okay so um it's kind of exciting because i think this house is
28:06just
28:06going to be snatched up before i even get a chance to list it which is exciting right because i
28:12get the
28:12feeling you're both very eager to put this whole process behind you wrap things up
28:21what did the police want did they know that we're at drew's that night no no they wanted to know
28:25if
28:25michael had a key to drew's house it sounded like they found one in his possession you don't think
28:30that willow would plant the key on michael do you well she shot drew if she can do that i
28:35don't know
28:36what would stop her from trying to frame michael for it yeah me neither i'm just so glad that you
28:41resigned you need to stay as far away from that woman as possible trina i didn't resign willow asked
28:50me to stay on and i said yes congresswoman i don't think i need to tell you that there is
28:57significant
28:58expectations surrounding you and your administration now a well-connected donor like jen sidwell
29:04would be the perfect guide for you during your time in office and speaking as someone who has
29:12served this community for several years now i believe that i have a deeper sense of what the
29:18voters truly want and believe me it's not a power player with a big fat wallet telling their
29:25representatives how to represent them i was really hoping you would have learned how to play the game
29:31by this time yeah i'm just not one to fall in line ezra sorry but you know what i don't
29:40think willow is
29:41that kind of person either i promised i will choose brooklyn every time don't tell me tell brooklyn
29:51tell me what
29:56well that the two of us are going on a date tonight really where are we going
30:03it's a surprise surprise i like those i think i just figured that both of us could use a date
30:10night
30:10considering how crazy the last few weeks have been i couldn't agree more
30:17shall we at your service oh thank you thank you
30:25you too enjoy your evening thank you
30:34uh-huh and what was that all about
30:38i gave chase a little advice on the whole well situation and i think he took it fat chance

31:56place it looks good right christina she had her heart set on reopening charlie's and you just
32:05couldn't say no what can i say you know i'm i'm always going to back my children well to that
32:11end
32:12you'll be happy to know that the investigation into drew's shooting is being shelved your son
32:18is officially off the hook so you can drop the act you can stop pretending to be interested in me
32:29i'm not pretending
32:34okay all the paperwork's done i just need a couple john handcuffs here you go
32:42right there perfect yay one down and one to go here you go
33:02so do you have any questions just one for porsche
33:09you ready for that boat life are you kidding me are you serious let the bidding begin
33:25i'm sorry i can't i can't
33:34you can't stay as willow's intern kai she's a dangerous woman she tried to kill drew i know that
33:41and that's exactly why i need to stay what is that supposed to mean look i've realized drew isn't the
33:48good person i thought he was but no one deserves to get shot i'm not saying he did i'm just
33:54saying
33:54that it isn't safe to work with a woman who tried to kill him look i understand the risks trina
33:59but
34:00aside from alexis we are the only ones who know the truth and since we can't say anything the least
34:05i
34:05can do is try to keep an eye on drew and especially willow at what point does this end when
34:13do you walk
34:13away okay ezra willow has heard from both of us now and i think it's time for us to step
34:21back and
34:22give her the time and space she needs to get acclimated thank you laura it's uh been a busy day
34:28i think it's starting to catch up with me yes i'm sure it has we'll be in touch
34:44so listening to anything that i say now is just out of the question
34:50why would i i mean you know that i don't like to be told what to do and you've been
34:55awful to me
34:55haven't you consistently you think that by dissuading her from cooperating with sidwell you're
35:00protecting her but you're not you need to get her aligned now for everyone's sake especially hers
35:14you probably heard kai earlier the police have gotten nowhere with the investigation
35:22which means my plan to have sole custody of wiley and amelia isn't panning out the way i hoped
35:32i suppose it's for the best the longer they search the more they'd find evidence against me
35:44started just because i wanted my kids back that's it but now circumstances have changed
35:54for once they've actually improved and this position
36:01is a far better use of my time
36:07michael come on in why'd you want to see me something to do with the key to drew's house
36:15we are dropping the investigation into drew shooting wait really i don't say i don't want
36:23you doing me any favors just because i'm a brother no no it's not me it's turner but for the
36:29record i
36:30think she made the right call wow well well you know i'd be lying if i didn't say i was
36:40relieved
36:44yeah me too
36:47but you should know that while there's no clear path to proving your guilt
36:53there's also no path to clearing your name so in the court of public opinion you will always be under
37:02suspicion
37:07did brooklyn say something to make you think that chase will keep pursuing willow's innocence and
37:14michael's guilt no she actually said that they are moving forward with their plans to adopt and that
37:20chase is willing to give up his rogue pursuits well that's great so why all the skepticism
37:30willow is far more manipulative than people realize i have experienced it firsthand she has
37:37entangled chase to the degree that he is willing to reorder his life in order to protect hers
37:43that leaves me very very concerned for brooklyn picked a perfect night to do this so beautiful
37:52where'd you even find this place the upside of being a beat cop again is i'm always walking different
37:58roots and this one points us in the general direction of a wine bar i discovered oh is that
38:04where we're going maybe you just have to wait and see you are still the most romantic and incredible
38:10man i know it's because i love you brooklyn i want you to know it and never doubt it never
38:30oh my god
38:34on the next general hospital why all of a sudden do you want to keep the house that is a
38:39very good
38:39question it's not a body that warrants some kind of disciplinary action i have a proposal for you we
38:46both know that would be a huge mistake
