General Hospital – Episode 6-25 (2025)
Transcript
00:00As pool attendants, it's your job to make sure the area is clean and safe
00:04and the guests have clean, fresh towels and whatever else they need.
00:08Any questions?
00:10No questions.
00:11Good.
00:12Rocco, you're on towels. Danny, hang tight.
00:18Dude, my mom took a photo of me like it was my first day of school this morning.
00:24Hey, make sure everyone has water.
00:27All right.
00:28All right.
00:28Cool.
00:30Excuse me.
00:38Would you like some ice water?
00:42Don't mind if I do.
00:54You tracked it down?
00:56The original birth certificate of one Benjamin Westhorn.
01:00It was altered seven months later to Rocco Falconeri.
01:08Mom, hey.
01:16Hi, Hilly.
01:17Do you have a minute?
01:18What's up?
01:19I heard you went to see Elizabeth.
01:21Martin was pushing her to sue the car manufacturer about the crash.
01:29And as far as I can tell, she doesn't suspect that she was interested.
01:30And as far as I can tell, she doesn't suspect that you were involved.
01:33Well, yeah, she doesn't suspect.
01:35She knows.
01:37Lucky told her everything.
01:40You know what?
01:49I have seen a few of the new pictures and they're just amazing.
01:55They are.
01:55They are.
01:55Wait till you see the rest of them.
01:57I hope you and Kevin can come.
01:59Oh, I want to.
01:59I...
02:00The truth is that my calendar is overflowing right now.
02:04So, um, you know what?
02:06If I can't make it, would it be okay if I pass these tickets along to Elizabeth?
02:14Hey, Deanna, I have to run to Imogene and Mr. Dorsten needs his vitals checked.
02:18Do you mind?
02:19I'm on it.
02:22Oh, Elizabeth.
02:24Oh, Rick, I can't talk right now.
02:26I'm swamped.
02:26Well, no surprise there, but I'm actually here to see a potential client.
02:32I've been to every single department, this entire hospital.
02:36My back is still killing me.
02:38The muscle relaxant you were given should kick in at any moment.
02:43Does this hurt?
02:44Yes.
02:45Sorry.
02:46I will try to keep the rest of the exam as painless as possible.
02:51Uh, take off your shirt.
02:52Uh, I swear, it's just all Tracy Corman's fault.
03:08Just, just once more.
03:11Oh!
03:13Okay, I'm gonna stop.
03:15Well, don't stop on my account.
03:17I know how much you enjoy watching your buddy Marty falling ass over tea kettle right off the platform.
03:23Oh, well, it never gets old.
03:26Um, I, I wanted to, I really wanted to thank you for today.
03:31You were just flawless.
03:34Well, I mean, let's give credit where credit's due.
03:37Marty teed me up perfectly.
03:39Yeah, well, I teed him up perfectly.
03:40I knew the minute I tried to get you to shut up, that he would insist you speak.
03:50That's not right.
03:52How are you trying to go?
03:53I'm trying to make a, uh, a gif or a jif of Drew's face the minute he realized that I won.
04:02But never mind.
04:03I will ask Leo to do it later.
04:09Now.
04:09We need to discuss your payment.
04:13That's okay, I don't want your money.
04:16How was it getting here?
04:18No eyes, no tails.
04:19Thanks, Paul.
04:25What's your answer gonna be?
04:27I, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
04:29What do you mean you don't know?
04:30No, you're asking me to give up my whole life.
04:33Whoa.
04:33Sonny, I'm sorry.
04:34You started a new, beautiful, comfortable life in Belize.
04:37We're running out of time.
04:41What's your answer gonna be?
04:42What are you doing here?
05:10Just another guest.
05:12Ignore me.
05:13Have you tried ignoring you?
05:15If you'll excuse me, I have some towels to fold or throw in the dryer.
05:20I don't really know.
05:20Something with sauce.
05:22I'll figure it out.
05:25You remembered your social security number, right?
05:27Yeah, yeah.
05:28No problem.
05:28And you thank Carly for the opportunity, right?
05:31Okay.
05:31You're so handsome.
05:36Rocco is so embarrassed.
05:38Well, it seems to be rolling with it now.
05:40I don't know why I think it's so funny.
05:41If my mom were here, she'd...
05:44She'd be doing the same thing.
05:48So am I.
05:51Hey, Dante.
05:53Am I interrupting?
05:54Uh, no, Marco and I, we were just wrapping up.
05:57I'll let you know when I've made a decision.
05:58I look forward to it.
06:00Detective?
06:01Counselor?
06:08I guess Chase told you, uh, what happened at the station.
06:12About Anna locking the two of you guys up in a cell?
06:14Yeah, he told me.
06:15Yeah, no, they're my finest hours.
06:17Dante, you can hold whatever you want against me, okay?
06:20I deserve it, but Chase was just protecting me.
06:22All right, look, I don't want to hear it.
06:24Okay, I'm sorry.
06:24Do you just want to jump to the part where you yell at me again, or...
06:28No.
06:29No, I...
06:29I don't want to yell at you.
06:32I am still angry, but talking to Chase made me realize that that's not getting me anywhere.
06:39I don't know what's next.
06:41All right, now, I don't know of the Rocco how I feel about anyone,
06:45but what I do know is that in order to reach Gio, you and I are going to have to work together.
06:55All of a sudden, my money is no good to you?
06:58Well, you know, Drew is such an ass, and I was happy to knock him down a peg or two.
07:05Besides, he framed you, so I was glad to help.
07:08Tracy, you're a great boss.
07:11Now, this is the best job I've ever had.
07:12You've more than proven your worth.
07:16Hades loves you, and I find you more than tolerable.
07:21Oh, stop.
07:22You're going to make me cry, Trace.
07:26Thank you, Cody.
07:27No problem.
07:30Lucky didn't mention anything about the blackmail, but it's Elizabeth.
07:34He loves her, and he helped me cover up that I nearly killed her.
07:38It was bound to come out sooner or later.
07:40He was going to come clean.
07:41Well, what did she say?
07:43It was a very sobering conversation.
07:46Elizabeth has every right to turn me in, and she's not going to.
07:50Thank God.
07:53She must know, too, that Lucky would be charged as an accessory after the fact.
07:58Maybe, but Lucky's headed to Africa again, so...
08:02Okay, so why did she keep quiet?
08:04Because she knows it would really hurt you and Molly if I went to prison.
08:09Molly would be devastated if she found out I nearly killed her father.
08:12That is very generous of her.
08:15Incredibly generous.
08:16It's definitely not what I deserve.
08:18So this plan that you have to break up Ava and Rick, that needs to stop.
08:23Of course.
08:26Elizabeth is always welcome.
08:27Okay, great.
08:28Because I know that she has always loved art, and now that she's gotten that cast off, I think she'll be looking for ways to get out.
08:35You don't need to explain, really.
08:38I'm just, I'm so happy that she's feeling better.
08:40Yeah.
08:40So, now, I promise you, I will see the show at some point, because I absolutely love his photos of baby animals.
08:49I'd actually like to get some of those, maybe for Ace's bedroom wall.
08:53Yeah.
08:53Oh, do you have time for a sneak peek at Joel's new book?
08:56Oh, big time for that.
08:57Wait a minute.
09:01Not you, too.
09:03What?
09:03Dragonberry juice?
09:04It seems like absolutely everybody is drinking this.
09:08Is it really that good?
09:09Yeah, it is.
09:10Delicious.
09:11Rick's got me hooked on it.
09:12I think Rick is getting commissioned, because he and Elizabeth were drinking it the day that I stopped by her house.
09:21Lucas, I noticed Martin Gray is being transferred from the ER.
09:26Is he being admitted?
09:27Probably.
09:28He appears to be in a lot of pain, and he is insisting on every possible test.
09:32Does Laura know?
09:34I'm not sure if he's reached out to her yet.
09:36Okay, well, she's his emergency contact.
09:38I will do the honors.
09:40Oh, and, um, by the way, I noticed Rick clomping around the halls.
09:48Yeah, he's here to see a potential client, but I automatically assumed he was here to see me.
09:54How's that for an ego?
09:56I think that's an incredibly reasonable assumption, unless you have failed to notice that Rick has dropped by to see you every day since Lucky Lab.
10:07I don't notice.
10:08Oh, good.
10:09Because that's all anyone can talk about here.
10:11Wait, wait, wait.
10:12Oh, wait.
10:12No, no, no, no, no, no.
10:13You have to be honest with me.
10:16Now that Lucky's out of the picture, do you think I'm leaving Rick on?
10:18The longer you stall, Turner's going to pull the plea deal, and she's going to prosecute you on your second DWI, and then you're going to be sent to prison.
10:31I know, I know.
10:32Okay, you also know that I can't let you give them anything that's going to incriminate me.
10:37You knew that when you first came to me and told me about the deal.
10:44You're right.
10:45I have this for you.
10:50This is the key to the safety deposit box.
10:53It has everything in it.
10:59Rick is really crazy about that, Juice.
11:13I'm glad he was able to go and visit Elizabeth.
11:17He's been working nonstop, poor guy.
11:20Yeah.
11:21Well, I imagine his schedule's about to open up soon, right?
11:25Now that the Corinthos case has been settled.
11:30As a matter of fact, he was going out to argue that case the day that we saw him.
11:34We wished him well.
11:35Oh, dear, would you mind?
11:39Yeah, thanks.
11:42Oh, dear, I have to take this.
11:46Elizabeth?
11:48No, Mom.
11:50As long as Rick and Ava are in this together, they are going to drain you and the Cassidy and
11:54trust dry, and then you're going to get caught for embezzlement and go to prison.
11:59And if Rick and Ava break up, Rick is going to pursue Elizabeth, and I am not going to repay
12:04her kindness by leaving her in the crosshairs of a sociopath.
12:08She is already in his crosshairs.
12:10Rick has had Elizabeth on his radar ever since he got back, and if anyone can handle
12:15Rick, it's Elizabeth.
12:17Normally, I would agree with you, but she has a soft spot for him.
12:20The same compassion she showed you, she'll show him, and she'll take him back.
12:27Okay, so what do we do?
12:29I think maybe we should tell her that Rick is blackmailing us.
12:34You know Elizabeth.
12:36We tell Elizabeth she's going to confront Rick right before she kicks him out of her
12:40life forever, and then Rick's going to retaliate by sending me to prison.
12:44You have a point.
12:46Mom, we're in this too deep.
12:48We can't say anything.
12:51Now, are you sure I can't compensate you?
12:54I'm positive.
12:56I don't take money for helping out a friend.
12:58I want to sue Tracy Quartermain for everything she's worth.
13:03Emotional and physical distress.
13:07Good old pain and suffering.
13:10Hmm.
13:11Yeah, I'll tell you something.
13:12The meter's running.
13:13Damages go up with every single spasm.
13:16Yeah.
13:17Um, Martin, you lunged at the paper, lost your balance, and fell.
13:24Tracy never touched you.
13:25She goaded me.
13:27Well, if people could sue for that, then Tracy would have been broke decades ago.
13:31All right, then fine.
13:32How about a nuisance suit?
13:34If anyone can irritate that woman into paying us to go away, it's you.
13:39Ah, well, I appreciate your vote of confidence, but Tracy's far too vindictive to settle.
13:44Look, if you want to pursue this case, I'm going to need a retainer of at least $15,000.
13:49$15,000?
13:50Ah!
13:52I can't afford $15,000, Rick.
13:57I'm not even sure I'm going to be able to pay my deductible.
14:00Well, then I would forget about Tracy and take care of you back.
14:09From what I've seen, you've been friendly with Rick.
14:12I wouldn't call it flirty.
14:13Okay, but you said people were talking about us.
14:16No, they're talking about Rick.
14:17About how he's always here, not the two of you.
14:20Oh.
14:20Besides, isn't Rick seeing Ava?
14:23Yeah, he is.
14:25Then why do you still seem bothered?
14:28I mean, maybe there's certain things about Rick I see that I like, but I haven't forgotten
14:34all the terrible things.
14:35A lot of them he did for us.
14:37Yeah, I think Carly mentioned that once or twice.
14:40Yeah, exactly.
14:41And I'm not going back there and Rick knows it.
14:43Unless he sees what he wants to see when he's with me.
14:49It's hard seeing the good in people that others don't see.
14:54Brad.
14:54But Brad made his choices.
14:58And all I could do was decide when I had enough.
15:01I'm not ready to forgive Chase, and I'm not ready to forgive you.
15:08But my anger over the past, I don't want that to prevent me from having a relationship with Gio now.
15:16I want that, too.
15:20And I'm so sorry that Gio is so mad at you.
15:22I mean, I'm the one who gave him up.
15:25He shouldn't hold that against you.
15:27It wasn't your choice.
15:28No, it wasn't.
15:28But at least, you know, you had a good relationship with Gio before this truth came out.
15:36Yeah, I did.
15:37Me, on the other hand, I came down on him incredibly hard when Rocco passed out drunk.
15:45You had your reasons for being upset with Gio, but you did lose your temper.
15:50I did lose my temper, and I regret that.
15:53And I know all it's done has probably made it even harder for Gio to trust me.
15:57Which means we're in the same boat.
16:01What do we do?
16:04I know that Marco's been negotiating with Turner.
16:06What's the new timeline?
16:08When do you hand over the evidence?
16:11Monday.
16:12Monday at a minute.
16:12Okay, you'd be long gone by then.
16:14And listen, you can't tell anybody that you're leaving.
16:18You're out on bail.
16:19If Turner finds out or thinks that you're going to run, he's going to arrest you, and this whole thing's done.
16:27Once I'm gone, I can never come back.
16:30No contact with friends or family.
16:33I'll have a completely new life.
16:36The lease is beautiful.
16:46Especially if you have money, you know, you'll be safe.
16:51I'll put you up in a beautiful luxury home, right on the beach.
16:56And you and I will still be in contact, right?
17:02Yeah.
17:03I owe you the debt.
17:06And I take that very seriously.
17:08I'm assuming you called because you want an Ava update?
17:21Yes, I do.
17:22How's it going?
17:25You can't expect instant results.
17:27Ava's smart.
17:28If I come on too strong, she'll get suspicious.
17:30Right, right, right.
17:31Okay, well, I want you to weave into your next conversation with her that Lucky Spencer has left the country.
17:39No problem.
17:41Why?
17:42Because Rick is absolutely infatuated with Elizabeth, and Ava is painfully aware of that.
17:48I'm guessing Rick already knows that Lucky's left the country, and he probably didn't tell Ava about it.
17:55So when she hears about it from you, it's going to make her insecure and all the more receptive to your advances.
18:02Okay, but if Rick is already into Elizabeth, then isn't my job already done?
18:09Hey, hey.
18:10Hey, um, I just want to say I'm sorry for assuming you were here to see me earlier.
18:19Oh, yeah, that must have been very embarrassing for you.
18:23But you can make it up to me.
18:25Oh, please tell me how, Rick.
18:26Well, you can let me buy you a cup of coffee on your break, or better yet, dragon berry juice.
18:30I actually don't know if I'll be free, and I would have guessed you had plans with Ava.
18:36Uh, not tonight.
18:39No, Ava's pretty swamped at the gallery.
18:42She's getting ready for a big show.
18:43I think that she was a pretty fair guy.
18:46I think that if we let him set the pace and don't crowd him, eventually he will be willing to hear us out.
18:52Eventually?
18:53How long is eventually?
18:55As long as it takes.
18:57And once he's ready to listen, we can prove that we want a relationship with him, both one-on-one and also his parents.
19:06That sounds great.
19:08What happens if he never comes to us?
19:11Jill.
19:13How will Rocco and Danny do we?
19:16It's the first day.
19:18The job's a little bit more involved than they thought it would be, but...
19:21They'll get to hang with it.
19:27Eventually.
19:29Yeah.
19:30I'm glad they have you to show them the ropes.
19:34How are you doing, by the way?
19:36I'm just fine.
19:40Do you have a minute to talk in private?
19:43Sure.
19:44I can take a break.
19:46That's right.
19:46I was hoping it was you.
19:55I'm glad you picked up.
19:57I know you're at work.
19:59Well, I'm almost done for the day.
20:00When you are.
20:01Do you want to meet for a drink at the Metro Court pool?
20:04Maybe watch the sunset?
20:05I would love to.
20:07I would love to.
20:08And judging from your upbeat tone, I'm guessing that your mom's legal troubles have cleared up?
20:15Hypothetically.
20:16Hypothetically, the interim DA is a tough negotiator.
20:19But a tentative agreement is in place.
20:23I'm glad.
20:24I know you were worried about that.
20:26I'm just glad it's over.
20:28Tyler, you kept my heart condition a secret.
20:33And then you made sure that I got the help I needed.
20:37And I've got to tell you, I'm not good at asking for help.
20:39But I asked you more than once.
20:41I'm just glad you listened.
20:42No, that's because, you know, you're hard to ignore.
20:46And then you came to me when Turner offered you that deal.
20:49I'm just sorry I ever let her think there was even a deal worth making.
20:53That's water under the bridge.
20:55But, listen, you were there for my daughter when she got in an accident.
21:01You were also there for Christina in court.
21:07These are little things I don't forget.
21:08So, I'm going to make sure that you're taken care of.
21:16You have no idea how grateful I am to you, son.
21:21And I'm...
21:23I'm actually excited about this new life you're offering.
21:30Loyalty means everything to me.
21:35I won't abandon you.
21:38Elizabeth called me.
21:45What have you done to yourself?
21:46It took a bad fall.
21:49Now it looks like I'm stuck here overnight.
21:52You know, they want me to run some tests, see some specialists, blah, blah, blah.
21:56I'm just praying I don't need surgery.
21:59Are the doctors talking about surgery?
22:01It's too soon to tell.
22:02I just don't want to be some kind of a burden to you.
22:07Martin, you're my brother and I love you.
22:10You will never be a burden to me.
22:12I'm talking about my job, baby sister.
22:14Look as desperate as I am to move out, you know, get my own place again.
22:17I can't work.
22:20I mean, I can't try a case if I can't stand up.
22:22But let's not worry about that right now, okay?
22:27So now that I know that you're going to be here overnight, you're probably going to need an overnight bag, right?
22:32But, um, I should probably actually do that now because I've got an appointment later.
22:37I understand.
22:38You don't have to come.
22:39I appreciate it.
22:39No, I'm happy to do this.
22:40Listen, just, uh, text me a list of everything you need and I'll bring it back, okay?
22:45Love you.
22:45I love you too, honey.
22:50And you, Tracy Quarterman.
22:53Oh, you're going to pay for this one.
23:00Nice hat.
23:02You know, there is a pool back at the house.
23:06You don't have to baste amongst strangers.
23:10Thank you for coming and for the offer.
23:13But your pool does not employ Rocco.
23:15And since it's his first date, I expect you to give him a huge tip.
23:19Yeah, I will if he earns it.
23:25I think it's cute that you're spying on your son.
23:28I'm not spying.
23:31What?
23:32What are you doing?
23:37You're folding his towel?
23:39You can't reuse towels.
23:40But the guy barely touched it.
23:42Any towel you pick up, he's put in the bin.
23:46Okay?
23:46Come on.
23:50Look at them.
23:51Gio would have this big brother thing down if he'd give it a chance.
23:55Just be grateful that they're getting along.
24:00Gio's still really mad at Brooklyn.
24:01I hope he gets over it soon.
24:05Dante, we cannot go down there.
24:08We can't just give him so much space that he starts to question whether or not we care about him, right?
24:13We've got to do something to show what he means to us.
24:18He's our kid.
24:19Our kid who's 22 years old.
24:22We can't force a relationship onto him as much as I would love to.
24:25I just, there's, there's so much of a Gio I don't know, you know?
24:33And I feel like it's, maybe I'll never really get to know him.
24:38You will.
24:39You really think so?
24:41Thinking not is the only thing that's keeping me going.
24:44And between you and your mom and me and my grandmother, we will get him.
24:51That is a really tough group to ignore forever.
24:56You're right about one thing.
24:57It's one thing more than I was yesterday.
24:59We can't just do something for the sake of doing something.
25:07I will be patient.
25:10It's hard because I feel like I've missed so much of Gio's life already.
25:15Okay, so if we're doing this at least partially because Molly hates the fact that her dad is with Ava,
25:21then I have to ask, is Molly going to be okay with Rick getting back together with Elizabeth?
25:27I mean, she would love that.
25:30But Elizabeth isn't interested in Rick.
25:32So until Rick knows that Elizabeth is a sure thing, which she never will be,
25:38then he's going to settle for Ava.
25:40But Ava...
25:42Is no one's consolation prize.
25:44Exactly.
25:45So if there is going to be a breakup, it's going to be Ava breaking up with Rick, not the other way around.
25:51Okay, so you just added a whole new degree of difficulty to this entire thing.
25:58This is not costing me more money.
26:00It's really the same thing.
26:02You just have to get Ava to see that she has better options than Rick.
26:08Hi, Trudy.
26:09It's Ava Jerome calling.
26:11I'm hoping you can help me.
26:12I lost an antique watch a while back, and the last time I remember I know I had it
26:19was the day that Rick went to Beecher's Corners to work on a case.
26:24Yeah, could you tell me that date, please?
26:29Oh.
26:30Oh, I see.
26:32Okay, well, that's my mistake then.
26:35Thanks, Trudy.
26:39How did you make it back from your meeting in Beecher's Corner so quickly?
26:43I have a fast car, and I know a shortcut.
26:51You lying liar.
26:54Before I let you get back to work, were you working at GH when Britt Westbourne was chief of staff?
27:01I was.
27:02She was actually best friends with my ex, Brad.
27:05Why are you asking about her?
27:07I came across her name in a case that I'm working on.
27:10It occurred to me that you might have known her.
27:13Anyway, see you at the pool?
27:16Yeah.
27:16We will start at the pool, and then see where the night takes us.
27:22Great.
27:23See you then.
27:24When we spoke before, I didn't realize that you were aware of Christina's involvement in your crash.
27:35We talked about it right after you left.
27:37Tell me.
27:40Liz, thank you for not going to the police when you had every right to do that.
27:46And I want you to know that I do not take what she did lightly.
27:51I'm sure you don't.
27:54Thanks for your faith in my ethics.
27:57Even though I've been wavering a bit on that front.
28:00Here I am, spent my life in pursuit of justice.
28:04I'm in here covering up my daughter's crime.
28:09Of course you are.
28:11She's your daughter.
28:12I couldn't let her go to prison.
28:16Even though that's what she deserves.
28:22Is there anything else I can get for you?
28:24Not a thing.
28:26Thank you for the excellent service.
28:29Yes, the service was fine.
28:31Uh, thank you, Miss Quartermain.
28:46Did it, man.
28:47Made it through our first day.
28:50Gentlemen.
28:53Congratulations, you are free to go.
28:55Thanks, Gio.
28:56Now that our shift's over, would it be cool if we win in the pool?
28:59You can't lounge in the pool while you're in uniform.
29:01No, man, we've been working in the sun all day.
29:03We'll be in and out real quick.
29:04Everyone's been working in the sun all day, and employees don't get to swim.
29:07Go swim with the cubes.
29:10What if Rocco absolutely slipped and fell in?
29:13And what if, like, as I was falling, I grabbed Danny?
29:17Okay, knock it off.
29:18Come on.
29:20Come on, boys.
29:21I'll give you a ride home, okay?
29:23I've had enough fun in the sun.
29:25Let's go.
29:37What happened to all the yard?
29:40Er, sorry.
29:41Is this the yard?
29:42No, no.
29:44No.
29:44No?
29:45And we're making room for Joel's exhibit.
29:47Okay.
29:47All right.
29:48Well, that makes me feel better.
29:50How about this?
29:51Is this art?
29:52That's art.
29:53This is art.
29:53Art is art.
29:54That's an abstract.
29:58It's okay.
29:59You can touch it.
30:00It's meant to be touched.
30:03Really, go ahead.
30:03Let me save it, Jerome.
30:20Oh, hi.
30:20Hi.
30:21Where are you?
30:23No, what, that's...
30:24That's not right, because I've had you booked for months, right?
30:30Yeah, well, I'm sorry, too.
30:33You okay?
30:36Yeah, well, not really.
30:38That was the guy who normally hangs the art for my exhibits and he's had some sort of family emergency and he can't come.
30:46So now I have an art exhibit coming up and I have nothing on the walls to exhibit.
30:52Well, I'm good with a hammer and nails.
30:56Lucky told me Christina cut the brakes on Rick's car because she thought it was Ava's.
31:01I was pretty horrified.
31:04So was I.
31:07But I also know that she's been struggling since she lost the baby and Sam and if anyone can push a person to the point of snapping, it's Ava.
31:19That is certainly true.
31:23So I think Christina just made a terrible mistake and she gave into her impulse and I know she regrets it.
31:32I was very generous of you.
31:34And I do think that Christina is aware of the severity of what she's done.
31:41I'm just wondering if I'm just seeing what I want to see.
31:46I don't think so.
31:47After I talked with her, I think she understands.
31:52It's one of the reasons why I've agreed to stay silent.
31:58All arrangements set.
32:00You'll be leaving Friday afternoon by the time you're meeting with Turner rolls around.
32:07You'll be on the beach drinking a Mai Tai and thinking about the future.
32:11Okay, thank you.
32:15I'll be ready.
32:22Sonny, I just, I need you to know how important our relationship is to me.
32:29Me too.
32:30I'm just so sorry I ever compromised that by not telling you that Jens was my ex.
32:35He just, he showed up into town and I was blindsided and I, I froze because no matter how charming he tries to be or how he tries to sell himself, he's, he's a very dangerous man.
32:46I totally, I know.
32:47But Marco isn't.
32:49And I need you to know that he is not like Jens.
32:52He's, my attitude drove him towards his dad, but he is not a criminal like his father.
32:59So, please, please just remember that.
33:03As long as Marco is just Sid Will's lawyer, I have no problem with him.
33:16It's harder than it may seem.
33:20I wouldn't, I couldn't ask you to do that.
33:22You're not asking.
33:24I'm offering.
33:24I mean, you will have to point and occasionally cheer and promise not to hit me with anything if I get too close to the yard.
33:32As a gallery owner, I try my best not to hit any patrons.
33:35It's a good policy.
33:36Yeah, the housekeeper where I grew up, she was a big hitter.
33:41It was the, the place itself, Serenity, was huge.
33:46So, we had a ton of art and I worked in the stable, so I was not allowed anywhere near it.
33:52But sometimes, you know, there'd be a piece that I'd just have to look at.
33:59And if I so much as leaned in, she would slap me.
34:03That's terrible.
34:05Yeah, well.
34:06Those days are long gone, thanks to you.
34:08So, I will be on my best behavior and be very careful.
34:12There'll be no slapping or fighting.
34:15Is either of those things something you do often?
34:19Uh, hardly ever.
34:21No, I think the last person I threw a punch at was, uh, the mayor's son.
34:25But, in my defense, I was drunk, so.
34:29You hit Lucky Spencer.
34:34I did, yeah.
34:35But I, I don't think we're gonna have any trouble.
34:38Because I don't get drunk anymore.
34:41And Lucky's out of the country.
34:44I think it's best if we all just move on.
34:47I know I have, and so is Rick.
34:50Ah, Rick.
34:51Well, okay.
34:52I know how you feel about him.
34:54Between you, me, and Carly, he's lucky we haven't killed him.
34:58And we all have to live with that.
35:01But what happened, it was, it was a wake-up call.
35:05For me, and for Rick, and somehow he seems lighter.
35:11He's just...
35:12Take care.
35:16Elizabeth, wait.
35:20Marco?
35:22Suzanne said you were in here.
35:23What are you doing here?
35:25Did you want to go over your deal with 88 Turner?
35:27No, um, no, your message was really clear.
35:31I just, I'm not here as a client.
35:36I'm here as your mother.
35:39Hey.
35:42Uh, Rocco's shift is over.
35:46Oh.
35:47Oh, that's too bad.
35:48I guess we both had, uh, the same idea.
35:54Imagine that.
35:57Hey, Lucas.
35:58Hey.
35:59You want to join me in relaxing after a productive day?
36:03Well, I'm meeting Marco, but I'm happy to keep you company until the guests here.
36:08Oh, yeah.
36:09Things are going well, then?
36:11Things are going very well.
36:17Hey, Gio.
36:18Uh.
36:20Got a minute.
36:21Okay, you only made more tips because people saw that sad little face to us and thought,
36:31oh, this kid can really use my help.
36:33Right.
36:33It can't possibly be because you're obnoxious.
36:36Oh.
36:37Hey, Brooklyn.
36:38Hey.
36:39I'm sorry for just blessing like that.
36:41Are you working?
36:42Um, yeah, I am busy with a very important project.
36:50Please tell me you're here to take my dinner order.
36:53I am starving.
36:54I'm so sorry, Mr. Gray.
36:57There's a bit of a problem.
36:59Now what?
37:01Apparently your insurance is lapsed and you're no longer covered.
37:06So, what's going on?
37:09Uh.
37:10I just want to tell you in person that I'm not going to be selling my peers to Sidwell.
37:21Oh, I can't tell you how relieved I am to hear you say that.
37:28I mean, I know this was a difficult decision for you to make, but, Sonny, Jen Sidwell is an evil man.
37:35And the last thing I want is for him to have a foothold here in Port Charles.
37:39Well, that's why I turned him down.
37:41He's trying to take over my city.
37:44That ain't going to happen.
37:45Great.
37:46But I got to warn you about something.
37:49Okay.
37:50I know that Sidwell, you know, he acts like he's this legitimate businessman.
37:57But I see how he operates.
38:00Yeah.
38:01So do I.
38:02So has Lucky, Anna, Jason, up close.
38:04I'm not going to start anything.
38:08Okay.
38:09But I got to tell you, violence is coming to Port Charles.
38:16We got to figure out a way to stop it.
38:27On the next General Hospital.
38:28Wouldn't it be good to know just how tight they are?
38:31I need something much more important.
38:33How did you arrange for this new life?
38:35You will smile and say thank you.
38:37This guy could be a real threat to our family.
38:39I thought you let him run wild because you couldn't be part of the parent.
