General Hospital – Episode 7-2
Transcript
00:00Okay, I'll back. High five.
00:04Good girl.
00:10Is that dog a lot in here?
00:13If by that dog you mean this girl who has better manners than almost anyone else in here, then yes.
00:19She's my emotional support animal.
00:21Well, she's also a dirty little thief.
00:23What, did she steal your heart too?
00:27She steals my shoes.
00:30But only my left ones.
00:33Now, if you can't control her and she can't control herself, you're going to have to choose her and me.
00:39What, you're not really going to make me and my grandmother choose between our two favorite strays, are you?
00:44No, I don't want to have to move out.
00:48Yeah, we would let you.
00:50I kind of get this feeling like Outback might not be the problem, though.
00:54Is it possible that you're taking it out on her because you're still upset about finding out that Brooklyn and Dante are the real parents?
01:03Is the christening palooza over?
01:07If you're asking if Sonny and company have cleared out, the answer is yes.
01:12Good.
01:12Because this is not a Rotary Club banquet hall.
01:19It's a home.
01:19People live here.
01:20Paul, don't let me get in the way of your living.
01:23I won't.
01:23What are you doing?
01:26Working.
01:27A less fun part of living.
01:30Isn't it a little late for that?
01:32More ways than one.
01:33Deception might be in serious trouble, but we might be too late to fix it.
01:42Hey, I got your message checks.
01:44Hi.
01:45Why'd you want to meet here?
01:48It wasn't my plan.
01:51But when I heard about the fire at Charlie's, I came to check it out for myself.
01:56And now, I can't seem to get myself to leave.
02:05Really, the paramedics and the doctors said, I'm fine, okay?
02:08So I can just...
02:09You're not...
02:10You're not going anywhere.

02:56moment alone with his mom yeah marco knows you right here he needs you there's gotta be something
03:02i can do for him besides wait well dr jones yes there is you could help us try to figure out what
03:08led to his mother's death all right so our guys are on the street do you hear any whispers about
03:15the fire charlie's we're gonna hear something thanks for getting everybody out there but we
03:19both know who's responsible for nearly killing my daughter jen sidwell mr sidwell a pleasure to
03:28finally meet in person i assume this means you'd like to set up the high stakes poker game we've
03:35discussed are several players in mind already well that does sound intriguing i called you here on a
03:43matter of some urgency i must warn you about what exactly you're about to go to war with sonic corinthos
04:13maybe i am a little more upset about my parents than the shoe thing though i would be grateful if
04:22you two got the shoe thing under control look i know you're going through a tough time so if you
04:27ever want to talk about it i'm here thanks i'm not i'm just not there yet you you've already done enough
04:35for me you you've given me a place to live i know i've been a big downer to be around lately i've actually
04:42been exactly the right amount of downer i'm serious it's been great having you live with me
04:48and my grandmother and we love having you there thanks my life blew up and i haven't figured out
04:56how to put it back together yet but i figured out one thing it's a start i'm dropping on a pc
05:03here you know my former stepsister almost died in there tonight but she did yeah christina
05:12we're not very close anymore it's pretty unnerving to know that she almost lost her life
05:18and all just because she's the daughter of sunny crumpus i'm okay okay all right i know
05:27you have to understand my reactivity yeah of course i get it
05:36oh breathe okay so tell me what happened all right last we spoke you were at the christening and then
05:44you were at the quarter minutes for the reception i i was uh my manager called in sick and so i left and
05:52had to open up charlie's i i walked in and i smelled gasoline gasoline yes and i'm pretty sure the floor
06:02was wet with it but before i could check it out the i heard the window shatter and there was suddenly
06:11fire everywhere i mean it was out of control must have been terrified i was i ducked behind the bar and
06:18i grabbed the fire extinguisher but it was i mean it wasn't enough i wouldn't have gotten out of there
06:24alive if it weren't for marco he saved my life can you remember any of natalia's text messages
06:32no it was all gibberish marco says that sometimes she would drink and marco are you okay
06:39mr rios we are very sorry for your loss thank you commissioner i don't understand what happened
06:49somebody must know something i can tell you what we know thus far detective chase and myself we
06:57entered your mother's hotel room and she was unconscious and so we called the paramedics immediately
07:04dr gannon could you take it from here please your mother was unresponsive at the scene with no pulse
07:15the paramedics weren't able to restart her heart and unfortunately when she was brought in
07:23there was nothing we could do what was the cause of death it's only speculation at this point but it seems
07:31to have been an overdose accidental or intentional we don't know the preliminary labs reveal the lethal
07:41combination of tranquilizers and alcohol but we won't know for sure until we get the official autopsy
07:49results marco we're so sorry lucas and i both tried to call you i left my phone in the car what exactly
07:58happened after you left my place i was on my way to see my mother when i drove past charlie's and
08:06saw that it was on fire there was a car in the parking lot so i ran in to make sure that there was
08:11nobody inside and you got christina out just in time you're a hero tonight mr rios i was able to save
08:21christina but i wasn't able to save my mother i get that you're upset and you're mad but what does pcu have
08:35to do with it i'm on a music scholarship and in the fall i'm supposed to be the first chair violinist
08:41the orchestra and that's a huge responsibility and an honor yeah it is and you deserve it that's the
08:48thing i don't i have no intention of ever playing the violin again and i'm gonna lose my scholarship i
08:55can't afford college on my lifeguard salary well can you borrow money from your family i don't want
09:00anything to do with any of them right now okay what about sunny okay you know he'd give you that money in
09:04a second she doesn't seem bright to me okay well if you don't have to drop your scholarship into the
09:11fall then why not wait you know you might feel different about playing music by then i doubt it
09:16okay well just let the dust settle and then figure out what you want to do but don't walk away from that
09:22first trade gig just yet it's a big deal and you've earned it and by september you might actually want it
09:29and then natalia said that she found something not so great while going through deception's
09:36financials sunny's supplemental investment did not come came from an offshore account i knew it
09:45sunny is using deception to launder his dirty money and now we're all complicit could somebody just
09:52explain to me how after all these years sunny can still reach inside the quarter main family and
09:58wreak havoc how he didn't know that it happened it was a clerical error a clerical error putting the
10:06wrong initial on a bank slip that is a clerical error this is a felony and i am so not happy about being
10:14right i'm so sorry grandmother this is all my fault dr jones was telling us about texts your mother sent
10:23are they still on your phone yes but my phone is in my car and my car is still at charlie's
10:30dr jones said that some of these messages were a little incoherent yes that's that's what happens
10:36when she's drinking i think one of the messages was supposed to say i'm sorry
10:44but i can't i can't say for sure i guess i'll never know is it because of these incoherent texts that you
10:51you thought you needed to check up on her yes i texted her that i was on my way and then i
10:57saw that charlie's was on fire and you know the rest i had no idea that she needed me so badly
11:07marco this isn't your fault you you thought somebody's life was at risk and you stopped to help
11:14commissioner how is it that you ended up at my mother's hotel did she call 9-1-1 or
11:23no the acting d.a justine turner she asked us to pick your mother up may i ask why you know as
11:32her lawyer you must know that the d.a's office is in negotiations for a plea deal in exchange for
11:38evidence against sonny corinthos yes i know earlier today your mom showed up to all saints during
11:45a christening for sonny's granddaughter i saw her talking to mr corinthos and i alerted turner
11:51who was alarmed given the plea deal what were my mother and sonny talking about we don't know but
11:58she definitely seemed troubled so sidwell's mad you wouldn't sell him the pair so he got payback
12:07by burning down charlie's do you think he he targeted christina it doesn't matter she almost died
12:14i know a couple hours ago we're celebrating my granddaughter's christening michael's telling me
12:23how much he loves me and even though he was fighting for his life because someone tried to
12:27kill me same thing happens to christina sidwell could be responsible for both ever since he's coming
12:36into this town two of my children nearly died i'm gonna tell you right now if anything had happened
12:46to christina i don't know what i would do mr sidwell you must be misinformed i'm not going to war with
12:59sonny corinthos in fact i go to great lengths to stay on his good side we have an understanding
13:08that all changed tonight when you firebombed his daughter's place of business
13:13and almost got her killed i had nothing to do with the incident at charlie's pub i have it on
13:20good authority that two of your associates i believe the names are simon and dan
13:25they douse the place in gasoline and then lit it up with a molotov cocktail now when corinthos
13:35inevitably goes on his hunt to find out who's responsible well he'll trace the arson back to you
13:43in other words mr sidwell you set me up
13:55i don't blame you i blame your mother she raised you to trust that man how is it that completely
14:02rational people become irrational when it comes to sonny corinthos for what it's worth i believe
14:08what natalia said that it was sonny's accountant's error uncle sonny would never do anything to hurt
14:13deception and not just because of me because of lucy and maxi too the authorities aren't going to care
14:19about that and when this gets out deception is done you know when this year began i had no intention
14:29of spending this much of it in police custody i know and i am so sorry but we have to do whatever
14:37it takes to make sure that this does not get out you implying we bury it in the deepest darkest hole we
14:43can find my darling granddaughter when you're right you're right you're not right about this
14:50we're not going to bury it we're going to take it and use it to our advantage i remember from reading
14:59your file that sonny corinthos was married to your mother your little sister donna she's their child
15:05yeah and so was my older brother morgan i know he died in a car bombing i'm sorry thank you
15:15thank you but there's plenty of blame to go around for that the bottom line is morgan died because he
15:23was sonny's son same reason why michael nearly died in that fire same reason why christina nearly
15:31died here tonight so when it comes to your former stepfather it's safe to say you're not a fan i don't
15:37see how i could be my family keeps getting hurt sonny corinthos brings death and destruction wherever
15:46he goes well we certainly have marco to thank don't we because if you had died your father would die too
15:55because i would kill him with my bare hands mom we don't know that this had anything to do with my
16:02god it certainly was no accident someone was trying to send him a message and you got caught in
16:08the crossfire hey christina i'm trying to fill out your admissions forms but deanna needs your id
16:16i mean i would give it to you if i knew where it was i i've got a copy of it on my phone i'll
16:21take care of the paperwork you take care of her got it thank you
16:25it shouldn't be too hard to take care of me i'm right here i'll do my best
16:35how are you doing desperate to get out of here but mom wants me to stay overnight so
16:41she's just worried she's not the only one i know you know you impressed me tonight
16:49all right i didn't really do anything marco's the one who saved my life
16:56ali did always say her brother was a good guy he's a hero but you were pretty amazing too
17:04the way you handled yourself with mom when she went after sonny was very impressive thanks maus i mean
17:12in the past you would have jumped to sonny's defense which would have started a whole big
17:16fight between you and mom but this time you let her say what she needed to say and i'm proud of you
17:22for that christina and i we've always had a special connection i think it has to do with you know
17:31that of all my kids we're the most alike
17:34i always thought so too same anger same intensity same demons she's always fighting with her emotions
17:48like me that's why i wanted i want to protect her so much
17:56i know you wanted to go to the hospital with her yeah i did but you know lexus was out of her mind
18:01with fear so i had to respect that if i had gone with them it would have made it worse just so you
18:07know we have somebody watching her room so she's gonna be safe safe for now we gotta find out who
18:13did this i don't care if it's sidward or anyone else otherwise my whole family's gonna be in danger
18:22what makes you think you can get away with this i'll go to sonny and tell him the truth he's known me
18:27much longer than you my word will carry more weight go ahead go ahead plead your case
18:36to corinthus but given the extremely close call his daughter suffered this evening
18:41my guess is that he won't let you live long enough to get your explanation out you two have clashed in
18:48the past and to the best of my knowledge you've crossed him once or even twice and now you're
18:56exploiting that history for personal gain sonny is a smart man he'll see right through you in fact
19:03i'm guessing he already has which is what this desperate ploy is about when corinthus tracks down
19:09your associates and he will they will point their fingers at you and who knows what other evidence
19:17sonny will uncover about your involvement no the best idea for you mizu is to leave town now
19:29you're suggesting i simply walk away from a business i've spent years building here in port charles
19:36you can return in the not too distant future and resume your business you can even do so with my
19:42blessing once you've taken care of sonny yourself when you do return you'll find that port charles will
19:49be a much better place if i leave the only way i can ever come back is if sonny corinthus is dead
19:57i am well aware
20:05i guess that means i have a plane to catch
20:12until we meet again mr sidwin travel safely mizu travel safely
20:27so my mother was talking to sonny but we don't know why did she say for the christening no she
20:35and mr corinthus spoke privately and then she left look i know dr gannon believes that my mother's
20:42death is likely from an overdose but i i'm almost positive that that is not the full story but marco
20:48what do you say i'm saying that my mother was murdered she was killed by sonny corinthos
20:58back to music but right now i just i just need a clean break from my whole life it was full of
21:04nothing but lies anyway that's not true okay there are good things too believe the good times are tainted
21:10now i used to feel so special when the cerules who dropped me out to perform in front of everyone during
21:17the holidays the lois and cloria they would get these these big smiles now that i know about the lies
21:26that they were telling me and everyone else the whole time it just makes me sick you know that they
21:30encourage you to play music even after camilla passed but you know that talent is yours not theirs
21:38and i know you used to get a huge smile when you played yeah well i don't anymore
21:43remind my technique is there but without the passion
21:50without the smile the music is just hollow and if that's the kind of music that you're gonna play
21:57there's just no point which means it's one more thing that my family stole from me
22:03i think you might have transposed a couple of numbers there
22:09i'm sorry i'm just frazzled how could you not be christina had a close call
22:14but she's going to be fine yeah she said the last time i filled one of these out was for sam
22:22tell you what why don't you read me the information and i'll write it in for you
22:26would that help it would help a lot thank you deanna
22:35even if i was collateral damage in some turf war thing i really don't feel like this was my dad's
22:42fault and mom she was just scared for a child i get it i understand that all too well
22:49because of our daughter yeah she was reactionary because she was terrified how could i argue with
22:58her we're both really terrified and i know i've said this before christina but i just i can't lose you
23:06i love you so much
23:07do you have any proof to back up your accusation against mr corinthus no but isn't it obvious my
23:21mother had evidence that she was supposed to turn over against sunny and he found a way to stop her
23:26i tried to tell her that you marka maybe you should take a minute you're right um
23:30my head is spinning i'm sorry commissioner no no it's totally understandable of course
23:38thank you very much for giving us the time to speak with us um we'll have to talk to you about
23:44the fire at charlie's but that can wait and in the meantime you have our condolences
23:50if you think of anything else please don't hesitate to reach out thank you
23:54thanks i almost admitted that i knew that my mom was going to break the deal and and move out of
24:04the country you've been through a lot tonight don't beat yourself up i'm so glad you're here me too
24:14is is there anything i can do for you actually there is something i need to call my father but i don't
24:21have my phone and i can't remember a single digit of his phone number i'll take care of it but in
24:26the meantime i want you to get checked out by dr david that's not necessary i know i phrased that
24:33as a request but it's actually an order doctor's order please okay we're gonna find out who did this
24:44mr christina we we have to because i can't lose another child when i lost morgan i'm not gonna go
24:53through that again okay we're gonna stop whoever did this and make sure they can't hurt anybody we
24:58care about we're not just gonna stop them we're gonna make an example out of them i don't want to
25:03hurt them so bad they don't even think of coming after my family again what do you have in mind
25:10an eye for an eye effective and fair okay let's just say sidwell is the culprit that means you'll be
25:20targeting his only known child marco and marco just saved christina yeah okay you know i owe the guy
25:28but protecting my family is more important than some debt of gratitude if marco ends up as collateral
25:37damage so be it i know mr sidwell's info is on this contact sheet for the nurses ball there it is
25:49thank you yeah good luck
25:51hello mr sidwell it's dr lucas jones i'm calling on behalf of your son who's here at general
26:08hospital is he all right he's he's fine but there's something you should know
26:13his mother passed away tonight
26:20do you think marco's right the son he killed natalia to stop it from talking
26:24i don't think we can rule it out yet really same
26:31wow i took court security anything useful yeah it's not good news for sunny
26:40you need to set up an appointment with the da's office right away
26:49we need to come clean about what happened well why would we do that because if we are honest and
26:56declare our innocence we'll probably just end up with a slap on the wrist and if we help them nail
27:02sunny he ends up in jail and we end up rid of him win-win i i can't do that oh please do not let
27:09your misguided loyalty to sunny rear its ugly head now it's not just about me entirely it's about geo
27:17sunny is the only family member he's still talking to all the more reason sunny is dangerous
27:23i don't want him to ruin geo's life like he did so many others sunny has been good to geo
27:29and if i take him away my son will hate me even more than he already does
27:32it's fine i don't want to put any more stress on your relationship with geo thank you i'll do it
27:42myself in fact i will be delighted to turn sunny in all by myself ah would you look at that
27:52the pcpd has perfect timing for once
28:04just promise me one thing you're not actually going to drop out at pcu
28:10how about i promise to not make any decisions about dropping out for now i'll take it
28:15and in the meantime why don't we figure out what else you're passionate about just until you find
28:22your love of music again what do you have in mind well did say you'd help me take down professor
28:30dalton for testing on animals and i mean come on how could someone do that to something as innocent as
28:37loose innocent's pushing it she is cute well played so how do we get started on this dalton takedown
28:52i've been working on getting close to him but i can't prove that he's testing on animals yet because
28:56i can't get into his lab so we might have to do something drastic drastic it's your way of saying
29:05something illegal right look i would never defend sunny corinthos but watching your loved ones pay the
29:14price for your crimes again and again that's got to take a toll i have tried to let go of my anger
29:22towards sunny time and time again but too many people that i love are getting hurt so i don't have
29:30any sympathy for him i haven't told anybody this i haven't even said this out loud but this is one of
29:38the reasons why i wanted to join the wsb i thought it was because of what happened your boyfriend dex heller
29:45yeah dex was a part of it sure but it wasn't just about some idealistic version of justice
29:57it's a little more personal and a lot less altruistic than that you want to get high enough
30:07up in the wsb to take current those down yeah that's exactly what i want to do dr gannon gave me the
30:16you all clear glad to hear it mark what's the chance of course
30:24he told me about your mother i am so sorry thanks dad you didn't have to come all the way down here
30:32i most certainly did i i needed to make sure you were okay thanks so much for calling of course i'll
30:38give you guys some time to talk are you holding up it's surreal i know she's gone but i saw her body
30:50but i my brain just can't process we need to take a minute take a minute take a breath i can't i have
30:57to pull it together so i can call alice but what do i say how do i break the news to her you don't have
31:02to worry about that right now i don't there's so much i wish had been different i know son
31:14i know
31:14there's other ways to get back at super besides killing his son yeah oh hold on
31:32uh if this is about the fire i don't i don't have any answers i'm here for a different reason son
31:38natalia ramirez is dead
31:39what happened
32:09we don't know we don't know it could be a drug overdose or foul play and is on her way to
32:16question sunny now i'm sorry what was it you were saying about sunny is sunny a suspect we're
32:22exploring the possibility oh that's it we have to find geo now it is not safe for him to be around
32:29his grandfather granny let's not jump to no it is not okay for sunny to be anywhere near geo he has
32:38taken too many people from this family and he's not taking go2
32:45do you think sunny would give us any pointers on breaking the law and getting away with it
32:49no definitely not even for a good cause it's okay i don't want to pressure you into asking for any
32:57favors from your family anyway hey i may not be taking his money or his advice in this particular
33:04situation but i'm so glad that i have him he's the only one that i trust right now
33:12how long have you been standing there mom not that long
33:20just long enough to see you two together and it warms my heart
33:24and i wish sam were here me too me too
33:33so in case i haven't made it abundantly clear enough already
33:39i can't lose another daughter
33:42which means you both are contractually obligated to outlive me understood
33:48understood understood because we need each other and we can't let anything separate us agreed agreed
34:01you've seen your share of overdoses so in your opinion to natalia od was this murder
34:19there were no obvious signs of violence the autopsy will tell us more do you really think
34:27sonny could have had natalia killed all i know is natalia is dead and christina almost died
34:36to me that seems like the start of a mob war a mob war that has marco's family on one side
34:43mine on the other i feel like this was all my fault
34:49how could any of this be your fault mom was texting me and i could tell she was drunk
34:57it wasn't the first time she's done this so i i didn't think to go see her right away but i
35:01didn't know how much trouble she was in there's no way you could have known
35:06maybe i could have gotten to her in time if i if i didn't stop to help with the fire
35:13what fire charlie's pub was on fire i i stopped there and i and i saved christina corinthos davis
35:21my god
35:25marco you
35:28you could have died
35:31it's crazy how things played out
35:32thanks to me
35:37sonny's daughter is alive thanks to sonny my mother's dead
35:45who does your mother's death have anything to do with sonny corinthos
35:54natalia's dead she is
35:56thank you
36:02i'm sorry to hear that i don't get why you have to come all the way over here in person to tell me
36:10because i'm not close when the time
36:12oh
36:14eyewitnesses said that the two of you had a very intense conversation at your granddaughter's christening
36:18yeah she she was congratulating me
36:22can you explain then why one of your bodyguards was seen having a conversation with her at the hotel today
36:31okay anna do i have to call diane that depends if you have something to hide
36:38one of your other bodyguards was seen entering and exiting her room and then waiting in the corridor
36:43outside her room when the police arrived he made himself scarce and all of this makes me think that
36:51perhaps the two of you did still have a close association
36:55what are you getting at natalia was due to give evidence against you in the da's office and now
37:04she is conveniently dead from what appears to be an overdose of alcohol and tranquilizers
37:09we're waiting on the autopsy of course in the meantime you are considered a person of interest
37:18meaning i have to take you in for questioning
37:28well you must be thrilled
37:31why because i just gave you all the ammunition you need to get rid of me
37:36you can go to brennan and you could tell him that i have an unhealthy personal vendetta and i'm unfit for
37:42the job i'm sure i'll be out of there by tomorrow morning hey i told you before that having some lofty
37:50ideal wasn't the right reason for being here people with lofty ideals get jaded every single time
37:57but you have a concrete goal to take sunny down and that's going to get you through some tough times
38:06and there are going to be some very very tough times and you what's what's your goal
38:14maybe i'll tell you sometime once we know each other better
38:21on the next general hospital how far are you willing to go to make that happen please not make this
38:38harder for wiley than it has to be i think you owe it to yourself to find out the truth i have some bad
38:42is your life is in danger why should i take your word on this do i keep looking or are they buried in the woods
