00:01The show was amazing. Okay, the singing and the choreography and the special effects and come on you you were
00:07amazing. Oh, stop. I'm so glad you all enjoyed it. I loved it. Okay, I loved every single thing about
00:14it. And before I forget, I also love the wardrobe and the sets and oh my God, we have the
00:20best designers and crew in the business. You know, the last set is up for probably a few more minutes
00:27if you want to take a closer look.
00:28Could I? Of course. Don't touch anything or they'll put you in Broadway jail. Nerded. I'll be right back.
00:39She's a keeper. I know. Got lucky. So happy that Port Charles has been so good to you. Now wait,
00:47how's the music scene there? Oh, it's very happy. My friend Trina's dad owns a club, the Savoy. They bring
00:53really great shows. I know they love to have you perform there.
00:56I love the Savoy. I love the Savoy. And you know, I love to perform. Obviously. Hey, I'll set up
01:03the gig with Trina's father. He'll contact your people. Port Charles is going to know what hit it.
01:08Come on, let's go. That's what I'm talking about, man. They're going to love you.
01:12I am delighted that our schedules aligned and we were able to meet for dinner. Yeah, me too. But just
01:21for the sake of clarity, we are both too young to make the early bird special a regular date, right?
01:30Please. Today's mealtime is purely a function of timing.
01:34Oh, thank you. Thank you so much.
01:39Um, you know what? There's something I have to take care of. I'll be right back.
01:43The first one. Yeah.
01:50Ah, Mayor Collins. Pleasure to see you as always. Here to save me from myself yet again.
01:59Well, that depends. Do you need saving?
02:10Need to ask you some questions.
02:13Oh, in that case, definitely come by anytime you want to unannounced.
02:16I already do, but you're sweet to say it out loud.
02:19Does your mother know you're here?
02:20The quid pro quo of my mother risking everything to protect you is I get to show up here and
02:28get all the information out of you that I want.
02:31Oh, so you're a glass half full person.
02:33Which is why I'm so sure you're going to tell me everything I want to know about Anna Duvain and
02:39Cesar Faison.
02:41How was your trip?
02:43It was fine.
02:44But I barely had a chance to unpack before you texted and insisted I meet you here immediately.
02:50Well, I really appreciate you coming.
02:53So let's get to it. I have a small window before jet lag takes me.
02:57What's the trouble? Is it James?
02:59Oh, no, no. James is great.
03:02He's taken up karate and he's mildly obsessed with it.
03:05God help the sensei.
03:08If not James, then...
03:10It's Anna.
03:11I'm assuming her progress has been minimal.
03:14I heard from Robin.
03:16And not only is Anna not making progress, she's getting worse.
03:34Finally.
03:35What took you so long?
03:36No.
03:38My job.
03:39We're going to case that and you texting me every hour.
03:42This is important.
03:43I'm sure it is.
03:44It usually is because you realize I don't answer to you, right?
03:48So I don't care if it will hurt your feelings or Pascal didn't make your tea the way you like
03:53it
03:54or you don't feel like working on the prototype.
03:56You can't come crying to me.
03:57What?
03:58I know Rocco's shot column.
04:24Nothing to see here, I promise.
04:28Another shirt on the table, Keltzman?
04:31With extra cherries.
04:32Please take it easy on the grenadine this time.
04:38Surprise.
04:40As you can see, I am still young at heart, therefore perfectly capable of changing my list in desirable ways.
04:49At least some of them.
04:50I really am glad to hear that.
04:54But remember what we talked about, though.
04:56You can call me if the pressure becomes too great for you and me, Shirley Temple Day, Kendall.
05:06If I have to, I will.
05:09Promise.
05:11Good.
05:14Enjoy your drink.
05:23What was that all about?
05:26And why is Ezra drinking something that looks like Hello Kitty made it?
05:32Because he's drinking a Shirley Temple.
05:37I know, I know.
05:40It's just that he had a few too many the other day at the brown dog, and I don't know,
05:46I'm still thrown out, as a matter of fact.
05:48Were there complaints filed?
05:50Were the police involved?
05:51Oh, sweetheart, I assure you, this is not a story.
05:54No.
05:55A city councilman is publicly intoxicated?
05:58It sounds like a story to me, a potentially important one.
06:01Or perhaps it's just a man who made one bad choice after another, you know?
06:06And no one was hurt.
06:08Except, of course, for him, and I think that maybe the hangover was a punishment enough.
06:14I don't get it, Mom.
06:16That guy has been nothing but a huge thorn in your side.
06:21Why are you suddenly protecting him?
06:24The doctors at the clinic were confident that rest and distance from her regular life would free Anna of her
06:32delusions.
06:34But unfortunately, that course of treatment seems to be having the opposite effects.
06:40Meaning she still convinced that Cezaya's alive and is holding her captive?
06:44Yes, her paranoia has gotten worse.
06:48She now thinks that her doctors are working for Faison and doing his bidding.
06:54She keeps trying to escape, and she's almost succeeded more than once.
07:00They beat well advice to double the guard.
07:02Anna will try again.
07:04And given her training and experience, someone may end up getting hurt.
07:09Well, that's why I wanted to meet you here.
07:14I was hoping that you could help me prevent that from happening.
07:19I'm sorry for Anna's troubles, but what can I possibly do?
07:23I've already told you everything I know about Cezaya.
07:26One of Anna's delusions is that you are part of Faison's scheme.
07:33She believes that he brought you in to give her a phlebotomy treatment and that you are still loyal to
07:42him.
07:44So, I was hoping that you and I could go to France and you could explain to her face-to
07:53-face that you are not Faison's co-conspirator and that it's all in her mind.
08:01That I cannot do.
08:05Any word on Anna?
08:06As far as I know, she's still in the hospital in France.
08:10There's no change in her condition.
08:14And there's still charges pending from her assault on that officer.
08:18What do you want to know about Anna and Faison?
08:24A little light reading?
08:26Just a little something I picked up after discovering Colum carrying it around the night of the storm at Windermere.
08:33And inside it, there was an inscription that said,
08:36For my muse, see.
08:38He was also carrying around a box of cigarrillos.
08:42Cigarrillos?
08:43Faison smoked us.
08:45So, any idea on how and why Colum would be carrying around two items so closely associated with Faison?
08:54What are you talking about?
08:56Rocco didn't shoot Colum.
08:57Jason shot Colum.
08:58You're the one who told Dante that.
09:00As good as you are at lying, it's too late.
09:03Rocco told me everything.
09:08Oh, well, that was a mistake.
09:10He wasn't supposed to tell anybody.
09:12He needed to tell someone.
09:14He's drowning in guilt.
09:16Well, if he doesn't keep his mouth shut, then feeling guilty is going to be the least of his problems.
09:21He's a kid.
09:22And he shot someone.
09:24Yes, he did it to save Jason's life.
09:26And probably mine.
09:27But now Jason is paying the price.
09:29It's a lot for him to handle.
09:30Stop it.
09:31You're not his therapist.
09:33Just worry about the work at Windermere.
09:34You let me worry about Rocco.
09:36What does that mean?
09:37That I will protect him.
09:38I'm already doing everything I can to make sure that nobody finds out what happened on the pier.
09:43Yeah, for now.
09:45But what happens when you need to score points with Colum?
09:50How do I know they're not just going to hand Rocco over on a silver platter?
09:54You really think that that's something that I would do to a 15-year-old?
09:58To Lulu's 15-year-old?
10:00Well, it's exactly what our father would do.
10:30I'm not sure what our father would do.
10:43Do you have a secret career as a Broadway dancer?
10:47Oh, yeah, only in my dreams.
10:51In this strip, it's been a dream.
10:56Only you made it real.
10:59I'd do anything for you.
11:11You know, I've been so worried about my grandma that I haven't really had time to think about anything else.
11:19And you took my mind off of that for a little while.
11:23And I don't know how I'm ever going to thank you for such a magical night.
11:26I'll think of something.
11:33I don't know how I'm ever going to do that for a little while.
11:56I don't know how I'm ever going to do that for a little while.
11:58I'm going to do anything.
12:02I don't know how you're going to do that for a little while.
12:03Hey, I'm going to get Curtis to book Michael at this point.
12:06Oh, no, that's so fun.
12:07We'll see you in Fort Charles.
12:09I can't wait.
12:14I know that you and Anna have a complicated history.
12:18But she deserves every chance to come out of this with her sanity intact.
12:24You misunderstand.
12:26It's not that I don't want to help Anna.
12:28It's that I'm not capable of it.
12:30If I go to France with you, my presence would only reinforce her delusions and cause her further harm.
12:38Well, you'd be with me.
12:41She'd believe you'd been co-opted by Cesar's network.
12:45Huh?
12:45You say Anna claims that I'm working with the captors and that I gave her medical attention.
12:52In her mind, the only reason I would do that is because I'm still married to Cesar.
13:00But you could find a way to prove to Anna that you're not, couldn't you?
13:05From what you've described, she believes I'm still working for a man who so disgusted me.
13:14I repudiated him years ago.
13:16How can I convince her of anything when she won't believe a word I say?
13:20Isn't that at least worth a try, Cesar?
13:23I realize I'm the latest try you're grasping in an attempt to save your friend, and I commend you for
13:30your effort.
13:31But if you were thinking more rationally, you'd see that Anna would interpret a visit from me as another one
13:37of Cesar's manipulative tactics.
13:40I'm sorry, but I cannot save Anna.
13:46Why would Colin be carrying a copy of this book with a pack of cigarillos?
13:53Colin was the WSB Phazon expert.
13:56Maybe he's using them as an opportunity to get back in the man's head.
13:59Okay, but what's the endgame?
14:02It's no secret that Anna was haunted by Phazon's obsession with her.
14:11Colin would have known that she was emotionally vulnerable when it came to him.
14:16Okay, so what?
14:18You think Colin was using these items as props to help him set Anna up?
14:22Yes, but the timeline does not work because Colin was in town when Anna was picked up in France.
14:31There is a connection, but I'm not seeing it.
14:35What the hell is it?
14:42Our father wouldn't see Rocco as a person.
14:44He'd see him as leverage.
14:46They wouldn't hesitate to use Rocco if it helped him achieve his desired outcome.
14:50I am not our father.
14:52Everything that I have done since I showed up on that pier has been about shielding Rocco.
14:57I am the one that took him out of a crime scene and brought him back to Lulu.
15:01I am the one that made sure both of them knew in no uncertain terms
15:05that no one was to know that he picked up the gun and pulled the trigger.
15:09Isn't that exactly what you'd do if you wanted to use Rocco for leverage yourself?
15:16Get him to trust you.
15:18Act like you're helping him keep a secret.
15:20Until the time comes when you can use that information to your own advantage.
15:24Look, I get that I don't hold a candle to St. Nathan.
15:28But do you really believe that I want Colum to know that Rocco shot him?
15:33Because then Colum knows that Rocco knows that he's a double agent and he will kill Rocco just like he
15:41killed Marco.
15:43I don't need your gratitude for what happened on the pier or for saving your life.
15:48But you need to get something in your head.
15:50I will protect Rocco.
15:52Nothing bad will happen to him.
15:53And that is a promise.
15:58Can you get it together, please?
16:01What if somebody was downstairs and had heard you?
16:04If Colum has driven Anna insane by playing on her worst fear, I will not stop until I have destroyed
16:11him.
16:11I will put him in a padded room screaming at an audience of no one.
16:15Hey, hey, can we press pause on your revenge plan really quick?
16:20Because it doesn't matter why you want to bring Colum down.
16:23All I care about is that you get it done.
16:25And in order for you to do that, you need to get a grip.
16:29Okay?
16:30So can we start by remembering nobody can know you're here?
16:35What else do you want from it?
16:36I want information.
16:39And not just on Colum.
16:40On everybody he's working with.
16:42So Sid Weld broke Marco before he was killed?
16:46What about Nathan West?
16:48Is there any possibility that he's involved in this?
16:55Okay, let's...
16:57Let's say I believe you're going to protect Rocco.
17:00My next question is how are we going to make sure he stays safe?
17:05Or we, we are not going to do anything.
17:08I will handle this.
17:09You are not keeping me out of this.
17:11No, you're going to keep yourself out of this.
17:12Because the best thing you can do for the kid is to make sure that Sid Weld and Colum are
17:17happy.
17:18I'm already doing that.
17:19I'm working every chance I get.
17:21I just spent the whole night in the lab at Windermere.
17:24And as far as Rocco goes, you are going to need my help.
17:27What am I going to need you for?
17:29Because I found Rocco in Colum's hospital room.
17:32When?
17:33What was he doing in Colum's hospital room?
17:35His community service.
17:36He didn't realize it was Colum's room when he was sent in there.
17:39By the time I walked in, they were already talking.
17:42About what?
17:43Nothing.
17:43But I got Rocco out before Colum could suspect anything.
17:46But if I hadn't shown up, who knows what would have come up?
17:49So you just find Rocco in Colum's hospital room and you just yank him out of there and you don't
17:56think that Colum is going to find that the least bit strange?
17:58I'm not going to leave Rocco to fend for himself.
18:01Rocco knows he's not supposed to tell anybody what he did.
18:04So why did he tell me?
18:05I don't know.
18:06Well, I do.
18:07Because Rocco is scared and traumatized and feels guilty.
18:11He told me because he needs my help.
18:13He doesn't need your help.
18:14He needs his mother.
18:15And that ain't you.
18:22Maybe a better place to starve is how did you even know about Ezra's fender at the brown dog?
18:29Oh, Dante.
18:30He stopped by my office to let me know that he was at the brown dog while on his way
18:35to making a spectacle of himself.
18:37Dante did.
18:38Why?
18:39Because he knows how many times Ezra has exploited me.
18:42He thought maybe I would want to use Ezra's bad night out to my own advantage somehow.
18:49But instead of giving as good as you got, you went to the brown dog to help the city's most
18:55obnoxious councilman.
18:57Okay.
18:58Well, I'm not the type of politician to tear down my political opponents.
19:05And besides, much to my surprise, I found myself feeling kind of badly for him.
19:12Mom, that has got to stop.
19:18Your passion has been a constant my entire life.
19:23And I had been its beneficiary in a million different ways.
19:27But Ezra Boyle is a public servant.
19:30And I could argue that the people of Port Charles deserve to know that a member of their town council
19:36is going off the rails.
19:38I know you could.
19:39You don't even have to get involved.
19:41I could follow up with a bartender and I could get the story out that way.
19:46Yes, I know you can.
19:47But I really hope that you won't.
19:50Uh, pardon the interruption.
19:52But if you allow me, I would love to pick up your tab as a small token of my thanks.
19:59That's not necessary, councilman.
20:01Your mother did me a kindness.
20:06That's one way of putting it, I guess.
20:10Keeping you off the hook for public intoxication is another.
20:17I was thinking about writing the story myself to highlight my mother's good deed, of course.
20:24But my mother convinced me that there wasn't a story there.
20:30So I'm going to let it go.
20:32Just another reason you should be grateful to her.
20:37I see.
20:40Ah, well, Mayor Collins,
20:44I do my best to lead by example, but when will you learn?
20:51You have me right where you want me.
20:54You have the advantage.
20:56Why are you not using it?
20:59Who says I'm not?
21:10Oh, man.
21:13So, my publicist, also Michael,
21:16gots you a reservation at my favorite act of theater spot.
21:20He'll meet you out in the front,
21:21and I will see you at the Savoy.
21:24Yeah.
21:24Thanks again, man.
21:26You're the best.
21:27You're the best.
21:28Seriously.
21:29This is a special night.
21:30I'm never going to forget him.
21:32He better not.
21:33Okay.
21:35Okay.
21:52So you do have something up your sleeve.
21:55Care to share?
21:57Just following your example,
21:59and you are the one who told me that politics was all about trading favors.
22:03Hmm.
22:04I'm not surprised you'd be willing to take a page from the old Ezra Boyle playbook.
22:08I'm happy to learn from anyone.
22:10Hmm.
22:11Even you.
22:12And how will I be repaying you for this favor, Madam Mayor?
22:17You are going to give me 100% of your support
22:22when I announce my next initiative,
22:25Universal Pre-K for Port Charles.
22:28And if I don't support you?
22:30Ooh.
22:31I may suddenly feel the urge to do a deep dive into your patronage at the Brown Dog Bar
22:37and your habit of spending time with escorts.
22:43No need.
22:45Just tell me when and where, and I will be there,
22:48nodding and smiling.
22:49I can even match my tie to whatever outfit you plan on wearing that day.
22:54No.
22:54Don't do that.
22:55Ever.
22:58You know, um,
23:00it's not really a favor
23:01because your initiatives are always so sensible and popular with the voters.
23:07I support you.
23:08I come out smelling like a rose.
23:10Win-win.
23:13Have a fun evening, ladies.
23:22Well played, Mom.
23:24Right back at you, daughter.
23:26Nathan's an Eagle Scout who has all his badges.
23:29Nathan's an Eagle Scout who's been missing for seven years.
23:32And then all of a sudden he turns up out of the blue,
23:35unable to remember anything that happened to him,
23:38yet somehow manages to pick up his life right where he left off.
23:43And you think maybe I'd help making that happen?
23:45Well, it's not an impossible leap, right?
23:48Look at Britt.
23:49We know what happened to her and that Faison's people were behind it.
23:53Why shouldn't Faison be behind Nathan's disappearance?
23:57More likely than not.
23:58So you agree that Nathan's hiding something?
24:00Not necessarily.
24:01It could be that he has no memory of what happened to him.
24:05I mean, there are ways to manipulate the human mind.
24:07I would imagine Faison's disciples know some, if not all of them.
24:10So either an innocent man has been returned to live his life,
24:15which would make Nathan the one exception to the all Faisons are criminals rule.
24:20Or Nathan is just as dangerous as the rest of them.
24:23And you should leave me alone.
24:28It's tragic what's happened to Anna.
24:31Such a strong, vital woman, incapacitated because of a delusion.
24:36Better understand how it could have taken hold.
24:40If anyone could return from the dead,
24:44it would be Cesar.
24:46Do you know something?
24:49I know that my children have come back to me.
24:52And it gives me pause that Anna,
24:56the object of Cesar's obsession,
25:01is the one insisting she has seen him.
25:04Is there any chance that Anna's assertions are grounded in fact
25:09and that he is somehow alive?
25:12I can see how you want that to be true.
25:15Because it would mean that your friend is saying,
25:18how is that?
25:19For the sake of my children.
25:24And bring that Anna is wrong.
25:28And that Cesar is long dead.
25:33Colm knows that you care about him,
25:35which means he can use that against you.
25:38So, I don't know, maybe try not making things worse for the kid?
25:42Rocco opened up to me.
25:44It's obvious.
25:45He needs someone to talk to,
25:47someone he can trust.
25:48And I promised him that I would fix this.
25:50He doesn't need you to do that.
25:53He has Lulu.
25:54He has me.
25:56Together, she and I will get him through this.
25:58Oh, my God.
25:59How dense are you?
26:01There is no you and Lulu.
26:03There can't be.
26:13I may have eaten too much.
26:15I definitely did.
26:17And I blame Michael James Scott.
26:20Why?
26:20He's the one who made that reservation.
26:22Well, everything on the menu was incredible.
26:25It's not like we could stop eating.
26:27We're not robots.
26:29Merely humans.
26:32As soon as I get up the energy,
26:40I'm going to call him,
26:42and I'm going to thank him.
26:44That was incredible.
26:47I thought you said you were stuffed.
26:50It's our dessert.
26:52Hey, I wasn't judging.
26:54I'm good.
26:57You're going to share?
27:00Oh, for sure.
27:04You know, if we're not planning to annihilate ourselves
27:07at every meal,
27:10maybe next time we're in this city,
27:11we should eat at the bus station.
27:14First of all,
27:17second of all,
27:18there's going to be a next time?
27:20Yeah, I mean, I hope so.
27:22I mean, I don't know if I could top this adventure, but...
27:25Joe, you don't have to top anything.
27:27You are the adventure.
27:31I don't know about that.
27:32Oh, I do.
27:35When I'm with you,
27:36I see the world with new eyes.
27:38Well,
27:40New Year's, but...
27:41What do you mean?
27:42You see the world through new years.
27:46Music and sound,
27:48that's a part of your soul.
27:50Walking down the street.
27:52You know, when you hear the garbage trucks
27:55and the subway.
27:57I can see you taking that in.
28:00Trust me, it's not the way that I do.
28:04Yeah.
28:05The subway, it's like a...
28:08It's like a tiny orchestra.
28:11Right.
28:14It really is.
28:16Like the...
28:18The subway rumble.
28:19Oh, it's like the bass.
28:23And the subway horn,
28:24the...
28:25It's like a French horn.
28:27Obviously.
28:28Naturally.
28:29And the subway brakes.
28:33It's like a low.
28:34Or maybe like a...
28:35Like an E-flat clarinet.
28:36What about the people?
28:39Yeah, the throne.
28:42It's like...
28:43It's like muted violin strings.
28:48And it may be a bassoon.
28:51Ah!
28:52It's a cymbal roll for sure.
28:54Shh!
28:55Shh!
28:56Kitchen at Bobbies.
28:59Oh.
28:59Oh, man.
29:01That's like the whole percussion section,
29:03including the triangle.
29:05Ding, ding!
29:07And, uh...
29:08You opening the dessert back.
29:11Oh!
29:12Angels singing from up above.
29:16Gio.
29:17Call me Aaron.
29:20It doesn't matter
29:22where we go
29:24or what we do.
29:28You are my whole new world.
29:35How is Rocco's hand?
29:38It's...
29:38healing.
29:39Not as fast as he or anyone would like,
29:41but...
29:42it's getting there.
29:44Well, I guess you can't really call yourself a cook
29:46unless you've got a scar or two to show
29:48for your time spent in the kitchen, right?
29:50Rocco's more of a microwaver
29:53and occasional vegetable slicer.
29:55Retired, no.
29:57Oh, he'll be back.
29:58I hope so.
30:01Why do you think he won't be?
30:04It's not just his hand.
30:08Rocco's been distant.
30:11Lately, I know that he's upset.
30:14About...
30:16about...
30:17Danny's situation
30:18and what happened to Jason.
30:20Yeah, well, he's not the only one.
30:22And Rocco feels things so deeply,
30:24especially about...
30:26people who he really cares about,
30:28like Danny.
30:29And it is a really wonderful quality,
30:31but in this case,
30:32it's just taking its toll.
30:34Well, it's an awful situation.
30:36At least both boys can lean on family.
30:41And I'm trying to be patient
30:42and just give them some time.
30:46And I am trying my best not to hover.
30:51Trying.
30:52It turns out that hovering is my default setting.
30:56No.
30:57One of the hardest things to do as a mother
31:00is to know when to take a step back
31:03and then to actually do it.
31:05I know.
31:06And I don't think I can do it at all
31:09if...
31:11if it weren't for Nathan.
31:13Nathan.
31:16You know it's not right.
31:18Lulu thinks she's sleeping with
31:20courageous, honest, loyal Nathan West
31:23and not...
31:24Yeah, I know, I know.
31:25Not treacherous, lying Cassius.
31:27Well, yeah.
31:29Look,
31:30most of the time,
31:31I'm not in a position to judge.
31:33That's the first time, sure.
31:34But I'm not in a relationship
31:36pretending to be someone else.
31:38You need to put distance
31:40between you and Lulu.
31:42What about James?
31:44When am I supposed to
31:45distance myself from him
31:47because I'm not his real dad?
31:49In a perfect world, yes.
31:51But it's too late with James.
31:53You're already in his life as his father.
31:55You made that little boy love you.
31:58If you were to pull away from him now,
32:00it would break his heart.
32:02But Lulu is an adult
32:04most of the time.
32:06You can still back away.
32:09Say you...
32:10Say you decided you couldn't betray Maxie
32:13or mess up your friendship with Dante,
32:15who is also your boss.
32:17Take your pick.
32:18Lulu will survive.
32:20But you need to do it now
32:21before she really falls for you.
32:26Do it for Rocco's sake.
32:30Your concern is touching,
32:32but I don't answer to you.
32:34Are you answering to anyone right now?
32:39Listen, I recognize your professional competence.
32:43Agent Jax, I do.
32:44I'm not arguing with you right now
32:46as a colleague.
32:47I'm arguing as a friend of your mother's.
32:49I've seen it firsthand.
32:51She's agonizing over you.
32:53Every minute of every day.
32:56Doesn't every parent feel that way?
32:59Yes, I suppose that's true,
33:00but this is an extreme circumstance.
33:04You're in a lot of trouble.
33:06I don't think you should go looking for more.
33:17Hello.
33:20That's right.
33:23Great, thank you.
33:25I gotta go.
33:27Will you please tell me that you've heard me?
33:30I heard you.
33:32But it doesn't mean I'm gonna listen.
33:42Dr. Obrecht?
33:44Hi, Dr. Obrecht.
33:47I'm so happy to see you.
33:49Do you have a minute to chat?
33:50I'm afraid I was just leaving.
33:52I've recently returned to Port Charles
33:53after a very long journey,
33:55and I'm ready to go home.
33:56Oh, well, this will only take a minute.
33:58Perhaps we can catch up some other time.
34:00Last time we spoke,
34:02you thought it was possible
34:04that someone was impersonating your ex-husband?
34:06Do you still believe that?
34:08Why do you ask?
34:10Because I think you're right.
34:13Do you think that someone could be your son?
34:21Oui, bonjour.
34:22Je suis le Dr. Kevin Collins.
34:26Ça va bien, merci.
34:28J'ai besoin de quelques informations
34:31concerné le péché, s'il vous plaît.
34:34Il y en a de veille.
34:36Sounds like things are going well
34:38with you and Nathan.
34:40They are as tough as
34:43things have been with Rocco.
34:46Nathan's been a consistent bright spot.
34:50Good.
34:51So you feel supported by him?
34:53Completely.
34:53Good.
34:54It's really easy to lean on him.
34:56Well, that's a relief
34:58because you had misgivings
35:00about getting involved with him initially.
35:02I did.
35:04And I think part of the reason
35:06I was able to get over them
35:10is because I know exactly
35:11who Nathan is
35:14and he's always honest with me.
35:19I think he might be
35:22the best thing that's happened to me
35:24in a really long time.
35:26Oh, sweetheart.
35:29When Lulu finds out
35:31who you really are,
35:33it is going to break her.
35:35Maybe she will put herself
35:36back together again.
35:37Maybe not.
35:38But either way,
35:39Rocco's going to suffer.
35:41I hear you, Britt.
35:43Okay, but that's not going to happen.
35:46Because I'm in love with Lulu.
35:50That was fast?
35:51Yeah.
35:52And I'm going to keep being Nathan
35:54for as long as it takes
35:55to hold on to her.
35:56And then what?
36:00What's your long-term plan?
36:04That's what I thought.
36:06One way or another,
36:07the truth will come out.
36:09It always does.
36:11So if you really love Lulu,
36:14you need to end it.
36:17Now.
36:33Probably not the best idea.
36:35Yeah.
36:35Your friend's already doing us
36:37a big favor by letting us stay here.
36:41Yeah.
36:42Yeah, we should probably
36:43leave this couch.
36:45Mm-hmm.
36:45Alone.
36:46Yeah.
36:47And you know what they say?
36:49Friends don't canoodle
36:50on other friends' couches.
36:52Mm-hmm.
36:53Mm-hmm.
36:55But hey,
36:56you did buy him
36:57some really nice olive oil, though.
36:59Yeah.
37:00Yeah, I mean,
37:01it's the least I could do
37:02to thank him
37:02for letting us stay here.
37:05And you bought Olivia some
37:07because?
37:09Because I love her.
37:10And I want to make her happy
37:11and cook and makes her happy
37:13and I thought she could use it
37:15when she cooks.
37:16And maybe if she cooks
37:18something with it,
37:19she might let you try it?
37:21I was planning to cut you
37:22on whatever she made.
37:23Oh, well,
37:24then it's the perfect gift.
37:27Tell me the truth.
37:29No regrets about
37:30not seeing your family
37:31on this trip.
37:34No.
37:36No, we'll see them next time.
37:38And that will be an adventure.
37:41Well, I'll start preparing now.
37:44And it was great meeting Michael.
37:46He's a great friend.
37:48I missed him a lot.
37:53And you really don't
37:54miss out on all the glamour
37:56and excitement of the theater
37:57when you saw him?
37:58I got all the excitement
37:59I can handle.
38:01Right here.
38:07What is it?
38:09No, you have a glitter on you
38:10from hugging Michael earlier.
38:12Is you?
38:15No.
38:18No.
38:18Not my dad.
38:20I thought you did.
38:22It's just...
38:24You.
38:28You just...
38:30Sparkle.
38:37On the next general hospital
38:38at the right price,
38:39you would eliminate Sidwell?
38:42You learned that lethal move
38:43from your father.
38:45I think Colum played a direct role
38:47in Anna's breakdown.
38:48What do you have for me?
38:49Your life is riding on this.
38:51Don't you understand?
