00:00Hey, whatever happened between Curtis Ashford and Isaiah Gannon was more than just grown men indulging in a schoolyard squabble.
00:07It was bad.
00:09Things, you know, get heated, tempers get crazy.
00:14This is more than that. Curtis could be looking at serious charges.
00:19Were you worried because of Jordan?
00:21Well, she's already dealing with so much, and now on top of that, her friend is going to prosecute the
00:26man she loves and send him to jail?
00:41Commissioner Faulkner, you got a second?
00:43Uh, yeah. What's up?
00:46You mentioned the suspect I brought in, Curtis Ashford. He's dating the former police commissioner.
00:50Yeah.
00:52Is that going to be a problem, you think?
00:53For her?
00:55For me.
00:57I know you don't like Isaiah. And you think he was involved in my accident?
01:01I know he was.
01:03How do we get from there to you being arrested for assaulting him, Curtis?
01:08Everyone has their limits.
01:10And Isaiah, he pushed me way past mine.
01:29Hey.
01:32Hey, what are you doing down there?
01:35Uh, just picking up my grandma's favorite mug.
01:41I broke it when I was making you a Felicia Tee earlier.
01:45Sorry.
01:49I made it when I was ten.
01:52Can't be replaced.
01:56It's kind of symbolic, if you think about it.
02:01What do you mean?
02:03My grandma's mug is shattered, just like she is.
02:09And there's nothing I can do to fix it.
02:30You started without me.
02:33Rude.
02:35I needed a drink.
02:37You can help yourself.
02:39Have you given any more thoughts to our clever cover story for Jocelyn's absence?
02:46I haven't thought about it.
02:51What's all this about?
02:54Drinking alone in the dark.
02:57I know you think that I should just trust that Jocelyn's out there somewhere on assignment.
03:02And that the safest thing we can do is come up with a cover story to tell her family and
03:07friends.
03:09I'm not sure I agree with you.
03:12I think you're wrong.
03:19Hey.
03:21I wasn't sure you'd come.
03:27Look, I don't want to fight with you guys.
03:30Yeah, we don't want to fight either.
03:31I know what it sounded like earlier.
03:34I'm sorry for losing it and saying all that stuff about you having parents that fix all your problems for
03:39you.
03:40And I didn't mean it when I said we don't need you.
03:43We do need you.
03:45But we all need to get on the same page.
03:47Why?
03:51Because we're sneaking into Windermere.
03:53Tonight.
03:59Dirty martini.
04:02There's been a development in the investigation with him on shooting.
04:06I was under the impression that the PCPD's investigation ended the night that Jason Morgan was arrested and extradited.
04:15This isn't the PCPD's inquiry.
04:18Oh, I see.
04:20Well, what have you uncovered now that you know that Jason Morgan wasn't the one pulling the trigger that night?
04:26Morgan may not have done it.
04:29Or maybe his son, Danny, did.
04:41I hope you enjoyed it.
04:42Talk to me.
04:42Bye.
04:42Bye.
04:43Bye.
04:45Bye.
04:55Bye.
05:01getting arrested doesn't always mean prosecution yes i'm aware i believe it's the da's office
05:09that makes that call uh yeah that's what i hear i think i've been arrested uh in port charles more
05:15than anybody and most of uh the cases didn't even take trial oh you must be so proud no
05:25i'm just saying that the cops are maybe flexing a little bit with curtis it wouldn't be the first
05:31time an overzealous cop makes an arrest without cause i'm glancing at this police report i don't
05:38think so besides curtis runs a global media company and is former law enforcement i don't think the
05:45pcpd would make this kind of arrest without thinking about the resulting scrutiny justine
05:52stop torturing yourself about what could be and think about exactly what went down
06:01and how i went to the metro court and guess who i see isaiah and portia having a romantic evening
06:11like nothing ever happened not a care in the world okay well they're allowed to go to dinner
06:18did they approach you no but i confronted isaiah about what he did and i told him he should be
06:23up front about his alibi i also told him that he should give the cops a paint sample of his
06:29car
06:30so we can be done with this once and for all well i bet that went well well he said
06:35a paint sample
06:35wouldn't help because his car had just left the shop he did
06:41i mean as soon as those words left his mouth i was seeing red you're trying to tell me that
06:50that he he fixed the damage that was done to his car so not only was he involved with the
06:55accident but
06:56he's actively covering up what he did jordan i'm telling you this weasel was never gonna come clean
07:07okay so is that when you punched him no portia was upset so she wanted to leave
07:16isaiah wouldn't let it go he had the nerve to get in my face and tell me that he would
07:21be a better
07:22father to my child than i would ever be and that's when i punched him in the face
07:28well uh curtis ashford is as well connected i guess the uh ceo of aurora media dating the
07:39ex-police commissioner as you mentioned and uh he is pretty close with the mayor
07:45who full disclosure is my uh my ex-mother-in-law
07:52i see
07:56you know i can't thank you enough for the opportunity you've given me commissioner but
08:00i'm not sure i'm the right fit
08:03sounds like mayor collins has someone in mind who could
08:07advocate for him i know but it just sounds like too little too late
08:13do you all that i'm hearing is that my grandma's getting worse
08:17and what now they want to move her to some high security government-run mental facility
08:22that's just a bunch of words i mean prison
08:27i don't think anyone's looking to punish anna
08:33i think they're scared for her and probably scared of her too
08:40and in a way maybe that's a good thing
08:47i wish we could have confirmation from jack that he sent jocelyn away but it's not possible
08:51at the moment jocelyn's disappeared and you only have a theory that jack is responsible
08:57well i think you're underestimating jocelyn she's very capable
09:00don't do that don't downplay this please
09:03i'm not i'm sorry if it sounded like i was
09:07hey what are you thinking i'm thinking there are too many variables here
09:14column jack sidwell
09:17any one of them could be the reason that jocelyn is missing
09:22either way jocelyn is probably in danger
09:25and she needs my help
09:28i already told you i'm not going to windermere and neither are you
09:32look i get that you're worried about getting caught
09:34but i lived at windermere
09:35no one knows that place better than i do
09:38and the only way we can help danny's dad
09:40is by going there and figuring out what sidwell's doing
09:42i can't be the only way
09:44if you got another idea
09:45something that no one's thought of yet
09:47now's the time
09:49but if not
09:49this is the plan we're going with
09:51okay
09:54look
09:55after all danny's lost
09:57we owe it to him
10:00and if we can do something to bring his dad home
10:02we have to do it
10:03i want jason to come home
10:05but if sidwell and colin catch us they'll kill us
10:08wait colin
10:10why are you worried about that guy
10:12we know we know the guy's bad my dad wouldn't have shot him otherwise
10:16but what does he have to do with going to windermere
10:17why are you so scared of him
10:21the pcpd carefully misplaced the evidence that was collected on the pier that night
10:26commissioner falconeri was a surrogate father to danny morgan for years
10:30stands to reason that he wanted to protect him
10:34not exactly a smoking gun
10:36if you'll excuse the expression
10:39truly you have more to go on than that
10:41jason morgan made no effort to deny the accusation that he shot me
10:45which indicates he's covering for someone
10:48who is he more likely to cover for than his own son
10:53the willingness to go to great lengths to protect and avenge our children is something
10:59i share in common with mr morgan and mr corinthos
11:05what are you planning to do with young danny
11:10i don't know the extent of what he witnessed
11:12but it's safe to say
11:14he probably saw too much
11:17that leaves us at risk for exposure
11:21so he has to go
11:25the murder of a teenager
11:28will cause a firestorm
11:30and this particular teenager
11:32is a quarter name
11:33with close connections to the corinthos family
11:37with jason morgan off the board
11:39sonny will act in his stead
11:41seek out
11:42and punish any and all involved
11:44so
11:46but be very careful
11:48about your next move
11:49because
11:49you could bring this whole operation
12:00i get that isaiah provoked you
12:03but did he hit you back
12:05he never threw a punch
12:07he didn't get a chance
12:08i hit him
12:09he hit the ground
12:10the end
12:12well
12:12is he alright
12:13i don't know
12:15he said something about hurting his hand
12:19how badly
12:22come on
12:23miss patrick
12:24listen
12:24the ink is even dry
12:26on your new hire paperwork
12:27they said they didn't put a deposit down
12:29on an apartment yet
12:36your friend curtis ashford
12:37seems like he's held in pretty high regard
12:39around here
12:40and
12:41in situations like this
12:43it can be easier
12:44to sort of just
12:45let things slide
12:46when they get messy
12:47and i get it
12:48i do
12:49and
12:50it's your department
12:51you know better than i do
12:53how to run it
12:54but looking the other way
12:57is just not something i
12:58personally
12:59can do
13:02the officials in france
13:04are scared of your grandmother
13:06because
13:06she managed to break out of a mental health facility
13:10hijack a car
13:11and get into a high speed chase
13:14with the police
13:18isn't that the most badass thing you've ever heard
13:22there's no no croissant
13:24or baguette break
13:25she she barreled
13:26for the border
13:27that is
13:28so
13:28anna
13:29that is
13:31very
13:31grandma
13:32right here
13:36she may need some help
13:37but she is definitely not broken
13:39she is still your grandmother
13:41she is still in there
13:43and she is still herself
13:47you're right
13:49she is
13:51until she's fully recovered
13:53and back here with you
13:55you've got me
13:59i'm probably not gonna get into a high speed chase with the police
14:03but i swear
14:06i'm not going anywhere
14:10thank you
14:14i you know that that was exactly what i needed to hear
14:23listen i'm not saying you're wrong
14:25but jack had good reasons to send jocelyn away
14:27and i think that's likely what happened
14:30standard wsb procedure
14:32and revenge
14:34i mean jack wants to hurt me
14:35and sending jocelyn away
14:37to somewhere i can't reach her
14:39i mean that's perfect payback right
14:40yes
14:40yes to all of that
14:42but there's another reason
14:42what
14:43his conscience
14:45jack doesn't have a conscience
14:46he has a conscience when it comes to you
14:49jack recruited your daughter into the wsb
14:52i think he regrets it
14:53he knows that columb is a threat to jocelyn
14:56he has feelings for you
14:58and i don't think he could handle her death
15:00on his ledger
15:03you'd be the reason
15:04that he'd send your daughter away
15:08you're the one who's always telling us we can't trust the wsb
15:11we'll call him the wsb director
15:13and what you just said about him and your dad
15:15the guy's got to be dangerous
15:17and so is sidwell
15:18so if you want to help your dad
15:20you need to stay safe
15:21which means not going to windamere
15:24it's a waste of time
15:25he's not helping us
15:27let's go
15:34i meant what i said
15:36if you go to spoon island
15:37i'll call alexis
15:39and i'll call mom
15:40no you won't
15:43because you know how important this is to me
15:46my brother
15:48never turn on me
16:02i've done all i can for now
16:05so i'm heading home
16:10what's the status of the prototype
16:13it should be ready to go online in 24 hours
16:18once it does i can complete the final phase
16:20great so we will see you tomorrow
16:29my meds
16:30of course
16:32meds
16:34yes
16:36allow me
17:02but first
17:03i'd like you to explain
17:05why you told the authorities that it was jason morgan who shot me
17:14i don't want to leave you in the lurch or anything so
17:17i'll sign off on the arrest paperwork first and then hand in my resignation
17:22sound good
17:26look man i can't make you work here if you don't want to work here
17:31but i think you've misread the situation
17:37in my department people don't get special treatment for who they know or who they are
17:43that's not how i operate
17:49this is more serious than i thought
17:52but it sounds to me like
17:55the cop handled this by the book
17:58maybe
18:00but maybe it could have been worked out
18:02by the time i was able to talk with dante
18:05the arrest report had already landed in the system
18:08and there was no going back
18:10well i guess on the plus side
18:12i used to run this place
18:14so let me see what i can do about getting your paperwork pushed through
18:18and then i'll pay your bail
18:20and we can both
18:21get out of here
18:22and go home
18:29hey
18:31can i just see i just want to see the report
18:34why can't i see the report
18:39okay so according to the police report
18:41uh curtis punched isaiah
18:44isaiah fell
18:46oh it appears he hurt his hand
18:49uh he went to general hospital to get checked out
18:53and
18:55the report includes witness statements from patrons and staff
18:59how well do you know isaiah
19:02not well
19:03but i do know thanks to drew kane's trial
19:06that curtis's ex-wife portia
19:09is sleeping with him
19:11so what
19:13so
19:14sounds like motive to me
19:16listen you can't make assumptions
19:18you don't know
19:19what went down between
19:21isaiah and curtis tonight
19:25i have a pretty good idea actually
19:29i think you're trying to scare me
19:31into handling things your way
19:32i'm i'm just being honest
19:34i think we need to take the emotion out of the jocelyn situation as best we can
19:38i think we need to look at it with a clear head and act of course
19:41oh is that all we need to do
19:44what if this wasn't happening to my daughter
19:46what if this was happening to your daughter
19:49what if charlotte disappeared without a trace
19:51and you had no idea where she was
19:53will you just sit back
19:54and take it on faith that she was okay
19:57no
19:58no
20:00my daughter hasn't chosen to be a wspe agent
20:06i hope for your sake
20:09that charlotte never makes a decision that you disagree with
20:14i hope she's never targeted
20:16when she's at her most vulnerable
20:18or manipulated
20:20into believing
20:21that she's making a choice
20:24that gives her purpose
20:28when actually she's being led
20:29into a life of pain
20:31and misery
20:31where she has to lie to everyone she loves and cares about
20:34about who she is
20:37i hope that never happens to your daughter
20:42i hope so too
20:50what
20:51is it jocelyn
20:52i have to take this
20:55valentine
20:55hello
20:58are you sure you're okay with him stopping by
21:00i can meet him at
21:02bobby's or downstairs
21:03no it's fine
21:04it sounds like he really needs you
21:05okay
21:12sorry to just show up at your place like this
21:14no it's not a problem
21:16you know i uh i really need your help
21:21i'm gonna go call my aunt felicia
21:30what's going on
21:32if i tell you i need to know that it'll stay between us
21:36can you promise me that
21:43i know you were unconscious when jason morgan arrived at the pier
21:48you didn't witness the shooting
21:50so why were you so quick to tell the pcpd that it was morgan who pulled the trigger
21:57you're right
22:00i didn't see jason shoot you
22:04but i told the cops he did because i didn't think anyone that was there that night would want the
22:10pcpd digging into what happened
22:14besides
22:16who else could it have been
22:18jason was the only person on the pier when i came to
22:21and you know what
22:23i want to believe
22:26that he put a bullet in your back
22:30i'm only sorry he didn't shoot you twice
22:34i take comfort in knowing
22:36the only reason he couldn't finish the job and get me out of this mess
22:40is because the cops showed up
22:52i already read your report
22:54it's legit
22:55you did your job
22:57no one's gonna fault you for it
22:58especially not me
23:06look
23:07i get when someone gets arrested
23:09you're seeing them on their worst day
23:12but i walked in
23:13a pregnant woman in a state of distress
23:16and an injured man in pain
23:18on the floor
23:19now i don't know your friend curtis ashford at all
23:22but in that moment
23:24he seemed like a pretty
23:26unrepentant suspect
23:27tell them you did the right thing
23:29be free to go
23:30mr ashford
23:43we'll be in touch
23:46all right
23:52wow
23:54looks like i'm making friends left and right
23:55nah don't worry about him
23:58now it's the easy part
23:59we hand this off to the ada
24:01she decides that there's a case
24:02and then she's gonna prosecute
24:08what's going on
24:09is it jocelyn
24:13valentine say something please
24:15it's anna
24:19anna
24:21was that the clinic
24:23no
24:24you were right
24:24it was far too risky for me to keep contact in the clinic directly
24:28so i have an associate who's been keeping tabs on her and getting back to me
24:33still kind of risky
24:34i just
24:35i just
24:37want to know that she's okay
24:40is she
24:43no
24:52she escaped from the clinic
24:55hijacked car
24:57and after a high speed chase
25:00the french police
25:01took her into custody
25:06she should have been transferred into a
25:08high security facility for the kumen lansain
25:14cough him
25:18he broke her
25:23promise me you'll keep this between us
25:26promise

25:31charlotte and danie are doing something stupid
25:33i tried to stop them but they wouldn't listen to me
25:35maybe they'll listen to you
25:37okay what level of stupid are we talking about here
25:40another college party another
25:41lab we can please say no to both
25:44no worse
25:45way worse
25:47okay rocko
25:48i really want to help you
25:50but i don't know how unless you tell me
25:53exactly

25:58no no i'm sorry i shouldn't have bothered you guys it's already too late
26:01no no no if danie charlotte are in trouble i want to help
26:03no no no no i think i think i'm just overreacting
26:05and after that whole thing happened with dalton and the lab i've just been super over the top
26:09cautious
26:11charlotte and danie are probably fine
26:13thank you so much
26:15for treating us to that
26:17finely carpet display of moral outrage dr westbourne
26:21i'm so glad you were able to get it off your
26:23your chest
26:25before you continue working tomorrow
26:27i still need my medication
26:30you should consider that the next time you feel the need to say you'd like to see me dead
26:35i am the only reason why you're still breathing
26:39and that will only continue if you're successful in bringing this project to its fruition
26:46if you will just give me my medication
26:49we can all take a much needed break from each other for the evening
26:54no that's not necessary
26:57i think we'll keep you here tonight in the sub-basin close to the lab
27:01that way there's no risk of your defiant tendencies causing further delay at this crucial juncture
27:07that will be necessary
27:10i'm sure dr westbourne understands the stakes
27:16don't you
27:20i do
27:24i've done everything you've asked
27:28and i will continue to do so
27:32they'll have your prototype in 24 hours
27:50i have work to do
27:51of course
27:52i will show dr westbourne now
27:54i know my way
27:56oh but wind of it can be so
27:58tricky
27:58i wouldn't want you to get lost

28:20you tell me if danny and charter are getting into something dangerous right
28:24totally it's just the usual high school stuff it's stupid
28:27we seem really jacked up about stupid high school stuff
28:31what's really going on man

28:41i was trying to help but i made everything worse
28:45we've all been there
28:49we've all been there
28:50but whatever it is let me help you face it
28:54i don't think that you can
28:56maybe not but we'll never know until you talk to me
29:01i have to keep quiet
29:03says who
29:04everyone about everything
29:11but the real reason i'm keeping quiet is because i'm scared what will happen to me if the truth comes
29:16out
29:33those guys are forcing brit to work on some project
29:36and she lied about seeing my dad shoot columb
29:40i don't know why she would lie about that
29:43and that thing with columb injecting brit
29:45it was like watching an assault
29:47vile
29:48it's all so wrong
29:51rocko's right danny
29:53columb and sidwell
29:54are a lot more dangerous than we thought
29:59if you want to go you can
30:01no judgment
30:03i want to find out what's in that sub-basement
30:25i want to find out what's in that sub-basement
30:37what
30:41i'm so sorry that you had to come down to the station and bail me out
30:46i know you weren't ready to go out public yet
30:50you needed me
30:51and i was glad i could help
30:53thank you but i wanted you
30:55to decide when the time was right
30:57not circumstances
31:00well i didn't love the circumstances but
31:04honestly i didn't know if the right ones would come around
31:09but tonight
31:11i proved something to myself
31:14what did you prove to yourself
31:17that i could get out there and face the world
31:19if i did it once
31:21i could do it again
31:28so here's the thing
31:31isaiah's a good guy
31:33a great doctor
31:33and he's
31:34just between you and me
31:36he's come through for me more than once
31:39good to know
31:42and what's your take on curtis
31:45he works for michael
31:46michael respects him a lot
31:49and i don't want any trouble for him
31:53well curtis is convinced
31:56isaiah again
31:56and was the other driver the night of the accident
31:59so
31:59trouble may be unavoidable
32:02what proof does curtis have
32:03none that i can verify so far
32:06okay but
32:07he is determined
32:09to make isaiah pay
32:12you know what if
32:13if i thought somebody
32:14uh
32:15left me and my family
32:17at the scene of an accident
32:19and i knew they could help
32:20and they
32:21didn't
32:22i would make them pay
32:24i get that
32:26and the question here
32:27isn't what would you do
32:29in curtis's place
32:30it's what should i do
32:31as acting district attorney
32:35okay there's nothing wrong with being scared
32:37that just means you're being cautious
32:38and smart
32:39so whatever the situation is
32:40rocco
32:42rocco
32:42where are you going
32:44i'm sorry geo
32:45i shouldn't have gone

32:51i've gotta go
32:52you promised you wouldn't tell anyone
32:56hey
32:57what just happened
32:59hey
33:00did you two have a fight or something
33:01no
33:02no
33:03and whatever else is going on
33:04he is definitely not okay
33:06what can we do for him
33:08i don't know
33:11i know i've found my brother twice
33:14i'm not gonna fail him again
33:18i'm not gonna be able to ignore this case
33:20when it lands on my desk
33:21first thing tomorrow morning
33:22of course not
33:23you take your job way too seriously
33:26but jordan is my friend
33:27and with everything she's gone through
33:29everything that she is going through
33:31how can i prosecute curtis
33:34he's her entire support system right now
33:36jordan is a strong woman
33:38she's got a lot of people
33:40that are going to show up for her
33:42wait
33:42are you saying i should move forward with this
33:45okay what would you do
33:46if
33:47if jordan and
33:48curtis were strangers
33:50in this case
33:51fell in your lap
33:54okay
33:56okay well based on what's
33:57laid out in the report
33:59and depending on the condition of dr gannon's hand
34:02i mean it's assault
34:04with grievous bodily harm
34:05it would be my duty to prosecute
34:11but i do know them
34:14and nothing about this case is simple
34:20in fact
34:21none of this feels
34:24simple anymore
34:28what does that mean
34:31well i am taking a potentially career destroying risk
34:37by spending time in a room above a bar
34:39with someone i should not be confiding in
34:44and i am actually getting good advice
34:48how good
34:51good enough
34:55yeah
34:57could it be that
34:59the risk is
35:03worth it
35:07is it just for me
35:21i should talk to lawyers
35:23and the communications team
35:24at aurora
35:26we should get ahead of this
35:27before news of my arrest goes public
35:29smart
35:30but ultimately it's at the da's discretion
35:33whether to press charges against you or not
35:35and justine was just here
35:36she knows the situation you're in
35:38and the pressure you've been under
35:39there is no way
35:41that she's going to bring a case for her against you
35:47and i was terrified
35:49she broke out of the facility
35:50because she didn't feel safe
35:51and now they're moving her someplace worse
35:54at least
35:55she'll be lucky if she gets sunlight again
36:01you're assuming the worst
36:03and that's exactly what you told me not to do
36:08you don't know
36:09what this new facility is going to be like
36:11it's a high security facility for the criminally insane
36:15they don't do nature walks
36:19you know what we've heard
36:22anna hasn't been thinking clearly
36:24maybe this is the best place for her
36:26it's not
36:29she's desperate
36:31she's scared
36:33and she needs a lifeline
36:35and i can provide it for her
36:39how
36:41i'm going to franceville
36:44i'm going to break her up
36:47so
36:48i don't have to worry about finding your resignation letter on my desk
36:52that's correct
36:54at least not today commissioner
36:56and that is that is good enough for me
36:58glad to hear it
37:01don't think
