General Hospital – Episode 7-3-25
Transcript
00:00Gio, I know you're working.
00:04I don't want to take up too much of your time,
00:06but things have been so crazy.
00:08I haven't had a chance to talk to you.
00:11About what?
00:12I saw what happened at the nurse's vault,
00:15and I just want to tell you how sorry I am.
00:18There is nothing more painful than being betrayed
00:21by someone who is supposed to love you.
00:25As much as I've enjoyed sleeping in
00:27and having the morning to ourselves,
00:28this is not a bad way of spending our holiday afternoon.
00:33No, it's not.
00:34And I have to admit that it is very okay with me
00:37that the congressman is in D.C. today.
00:40Good, because I know the perfect spot to watch fireworks.
00:44Okay, well, that sounds great and all,
00:46but actually, I have fireworks right in front of me.
00:53Maxi should be here any second.
00:56Oh, good.
00:56You can tell her about how Sunny's blood money
01:01is bringing down deception,
01:02and I will, at the appropriate moment,
01:05chime in with,
01:07I told you so.
01:08Deception isn't down and out yet.
01:10Things are just precarious.
01:12Yes, they certainly are.
01:13You and Maxi are intelligent, innovative women,
01:18so you'll think of something to save deception, I'm sure,
01:22and I am going to do my best to save Gio.
01:25The role of Maxi Jones is temporarily being played by Nicole Poggy.
01:34Hey, Maxi.
01:39Not that I'm not always happy to see you,
01:41but what are you doing here?
01:43Brooklyn called an emergency meeting on the 4th of July,
01:47but as unofficial godmother,
01:51I also wanted to get another peek at Daisy.
01:54She is the sweetest little thing ever.
01:56Yeah, she really is.
01:58And even though you couldn't be there yesterday,
02:00I can't thank you enough for everything.
02:02How you were planning it made the christening happen.
02:05It was nothing.
02:06It was not nothing.
02:08Not Maxi, I mean it.
02:10Daisy's christening it.
02:12It gave me hope for my family's future.
02:14Did you find anything out about Brit Westborn yet?
02:18I found some stuff, but we don't have time to go through.
02:21We gotta get to work.
02:25Or just forget about the whole thing and move on.
02:30I have another mother.
02:32That's not something I can forget about.
02:35Okay, guys, but it's so important
02:37that I had to take a detour from the pool on a national holiday.
02:41Yeah, so there's this woman,
02:44who I think you know.
02:46She might have...
02:48She might be...
02:50What do you know about Brit Westborn?
02:53Thanks for coming.
02:57What did you want to talk to me about?
03:00Well, I'm reporting on the fire
03:02at Charlie's for the Landview Banner.
03:04And the yes on measure C people
03:07are saying that the fire there is proof
03:09that mob violence is escalating again
03:11and that you're ignoring it
03:12because of your long-time personal connection with Sunny.
03:15No, no.
03:16I am not ignoring it.
03:19There's a right way and a wrong way
03:22to investigate a fire.
03:23I must do this the right way.
03:25And the yes on C people are saying
03:28that you're standing in the way of a measure
03:30that the city desperately needs.
03:31Oh, I thought that is just absurd.
03:34Honey, I am the one who called for the measure.
03:38I know.
03:39And as much as I hate to say this,
03:42Mom, it's time.
03:45You have to disavow Sunny.
03:47Now, Lulu?
03:48I mean, really, what would that accomplish?
03:51Except to tear our family apart.
03:56ADA Turner, is Diane with you?
04:00She's not.
04:01Okay, I'm going to tell you
04:02what I told the commissioner.
04:04I'm not saying a word
04:06unless my attorney's here.
04:09I know.
04:11That's why I'm here.
04:15What do you mean they won't let you see him?
04:17That's crazy.
04:17You're his attorney.
04:21Okay, Diane, just keep me posted.
04:28Hey.
04:30If you're looking for Sunny,
04:31the PCPD has been holding him since last night.
04:33No, I know that.
04:34They won't let me talk to him.
04:36Anyway, I wanted to give you an update
04:37on the fire, Charlie,
04:38so we got a suspect,
04:40Selena Wu.
05:08It's very kind of you,
05:09considering everything that you're going through,
05:11and for what it's worth,
05:13I'm really sorry about that.
05:18Yeah, when your life gets turned upside down,
05:21like ours have,
05:23you find out who you can really trust.
05:25And who you can't.
05:26Yes.
05:27But anyone who stands by you,
05:31who helps you through the hard times,
05:33that's someone you can always count on.
05:37You know, just yesterday,
05:38Christina was celebrating with us at the christening.
05:42Now she's at GH.
05:44I heard.
05:45Is she okay?
05:47I just talked to her.
05:48She still has a little bit of a cough,
05:50but she swears she's doing all right.
05:52Oh, well, that's good.
05:54I mean, it could have been so much worse.
05:56You of all people know that.
05:58Yeah, I really do.
06:01Which is why I'm trying to focus on the good.
06:04Like how crazy Wiley and Amelia are
06:06about their new baby sister.
06:08Well, it seems like they're doing okay
06:09after the custody hearing.
06:11Yeah, we're all doing our best.
06:13Trying to stick to a routine, et cetera.
06:16I'm just, I'm really hoping
06:18that things can get a little bit more stable
06:19after the visitation hearing.
06:21There has to be some kind of equitable way
06:24for all of us to move forward from here.
06:27Is it ECU Stadium?
06:29For fireworks?
06:31No, not even class.
06:33Hey, Kai.
06:34Trina.
06:35Sorry to interrupt.
06:36No, not at all.
06:37We were just discussing
06:38where to wash the fireworks tonight.
06:39Speaking of,
06:40I thought you'd be celebrating with Drew in D.C.
06:42Turns out he's too busy working to celebrate.
06:45Working with who?
06:46Isn't everyone in Congress
06:47with their families today?
06:49Apparently not everyone.
06:51And I just thought I'd stay here
06:52and keep it low-key.
06:54Who knows?
06:54Maybe I'll try D.C. next year.
06:56Maybe.
06:57Anyway, I just wanted to pop by
06:59and tell you how impressed
07:01Drew has been with your work.
07:02That's good to hear.
07:03He's your number one fan.
07:07Maybe number two.
07:08And he's, um,
07:11he just really appreciates you
07:13going that extra mile.
07:18Does it scare me
07:19that Christina nearly got caught in a fire?
07:22Absolutely.
07:23There's no nearly.
07:25Christina got caught in a fire
07:26and she was rescued.
07:27Okay, even so,
07:28there's no reason to think
07:29that Gio would be targeted.
07:31Oh, Brooklyn,
07:33I love you madly,
07:34but that was a painfully naive thing to say.
07:37Why?
07:38Gio and Sonny have a nice relationship,
07:40but it's not like he lives with them.
07:42They barely spend any time together.
07:43So, looking at the situation
07:45from a purely logical standpoint,
07:48Gio should be safe.
07:49Okay, so when gangsters go to war,
07:52they don't go after each other first.
07:55They go after their enemy's loved ones.
07:58In that case,
08:01how do we protect Gio?
08:02I don't know.
08:04We can only try our best,
08:07but truthfully,
08:09Gio isn't going to be safe
08:11until Sonny is dealt with once and for all.
08:14Diane Miller may have everyone
08:16shaking in their boots,
08:17but procedure is procedure,
08:19and I can hold you for a full 24 hours.
08:21Yeah, I know that,
08:22but you can't keep me
08:24from saying my attorney,
08:25so I'm not going to say anything
08:28until my attorney's here.
08:30How do you know she isn't too busy?
08:33Well, come on.
08:36I'm sure she's never too busy
08:38for her most billable client.
08:41She's one of the few people
08:42that I don't mind waiting for.
08:44But if your attorney has been withheld from you,
08:49then anything you say
08:50can't be used against you.
08:53It'll be inadmissible,
08:56and you know that, right?
08:58Yeah, I'm aware of that.
09:01Then this is your best opportunity
09:04to tell me what really happened.
09:06Well, that's great for me,
09:09but what good is it for you?
09:11And no offense,
09:12but why should I take your word on this?
09:16Mr. Carinthos,
09:18why are you sitting here
09:20acting like the injured party
09:22when it's Natalia Ramirez
09:24who is lying dead in the morgue?
09:28We've ID'd two suspects
09:30in the fire, Charlie.
09:31They're both Selena's guys.
09:32We got warrants out for the rest,
09:34but they're in the wind.
09:36We heard Selena booked a flight
09:37to Singapore last night.
09:38We're trying to figure out
09:39if she got on the plane or not.
09:41Sounds like you got to figure it out.
09:43Why come to me?
09:45Because if Selena and her guys
09:47put Christina in the hospital,
09:49do I keep looking
09:51or are they buried in the woods somewhere?
09:55Why are you guys asking me
09:56about the bridge?
09:58The who?
10:00The bridge.
10:02Britchie, her britchness.
10:04The wicked witch of the Westborn.
10:07So you really didn't like her?
10:09Nobody did except for my dad.
10:11That was just for a little while.
10:14He and Britch
10:14reconciliated me.
10:18So what happened
10:19between her and your dad?
10:20Thankfully,
10:21he eventually came to his senses
10:22and realized how awful she was
10:24and dumped her ass,
10:25but then...
10:26Then what?
10:27This is insane,
10:28but she was so pathetic
10:30and desperate to hang on to my dad
10:31that she got herself pregnant
10:32and then...
10:33I get it now.
10:43It's a perfect July 4th day,
10:45so why are we working?
10:46Oh, I wish we didn't have to,
10:48but...
10:48I have some bad news.
10:52Well, whatever it is,
10:53clearly it can't wait,
10:54so hit me.
10:56Well, it seems that
10:57Sunny's second investment
10:59in deception
10:59was made with dirty money.
11:00You can't be serious.
11:04Sunny would never be that sloppy.
11:06It's all in there.
11:10And how did you find out?
11:15Natalia told me.
11:17Well, Natalia's gonna have to
11:18walk me through every page.
11:21She can't.
11:24Natalia died last night.
11:28Natalia's dead?
11:30Oh, my God.
11:32You don't think...
11:34No, no, no, no, never.
11:37Oh, my God.
11:38Okay.
11:40Okay.
11:42Oh, my God.
11:43We're gonna have to go to the police.
11:46Hand over all our records.
11:47Let them go through it
11:48with a fine-tooth comb.
11:52You don't agree?
11:53No, no, I...
11:54I do completely.
11:56Even if it causes Sunny problems.
11:58Even so.
12:00But what about you?
12:02I mean, Spinelli adores Sunny.
12:05Will he be okay with this?
12:07He'll have to be.
12:09My family needs deception,
12:11which means I have to do
12:12everything I can
12:14to save the company.
12:15Mom, you just have to
12:17publicly disavow Sunny.
12:18It doesn't have to be real.
12:19Oh, it does, Sunny.
12:22It does for two very big reasons.
12:24One, Ezra Boyle has some sort of a tracking device on me,
12:27and he will be right there waiting with his camera
12:29to snap a picture of me
12:31to prove to the world
12:32that I am a liar.
12:34And secondly,
12:37because Sunny is
12:39a part of our family,
12:41what kind of example
12:42would I be setting
12:43for my grandchildren?
12:45Hey, kids!
12:46Watch, Grandma,
12:47I'm gonna teach you
12:48how to lie
12:50to save your hide.
12:51Obviously, not that.
12:52No.
12:53Not that.
12:55But I'm also thinking
12:56about Rocco right now.
12:58He's been through a lot lately.
13:00I would never, ever want him
13:02to have to choose
13:03between his grandmother
13:04and his grandfather.
13:06I'll talk to Rocco.
13:07He'll understand.
13:09But, Willie?
13:10Really?
13:11I mean, because I don't understand.
13:13I don't.
13:14I really don't.
13:15Either I'm sacrificing my family
13:16or my principals.
13:18No.
13:19I am not going to compromise
13:21my own morals.
13:23I'm just not doing it.
13:26Besides, I...
13:27I can't help feeling
13:29that there is more to this.
13:33I'm sorry,
13:33but I have to get going.
13:34Emma, wait a second, please.
13:38Brick got pregnant with me.
13:40Right?
13:41I was the baby she carried?
13:44Rocco, like I said,
13:46hey, I was just a kid
13:47when this went down.
13:48If you really want to know
13:49what happened,
13:50I think you should talk
13:50to your mom and your dad.
13:51Because their memories
13:52are going to be
13:52a whole lot better than mine.
13:58Thanks for talking to us.
14:01And I'm sorry
14:02we ambushed you like this.
14:04We just,
14:04we really needed to know.
14:06I totally get it.
14:09Happy 4th.
14:15Rocco,
14:16there's got to be
14:18a lot more to this
14:18that I never knew about.
14:19I mean, there has to be.
14:23I think you owe it to yourself
14:24to find out the truth.
14:27And what extra mile did you go?
14:30Or is that classified?
14:31It's nothing like that.
14:32Oh, no.
14:33Kai stepped in
14:34and helped get Drew
14:35out of that disaster
14:36of a press conference
14:37with Tracy.
14:39Right.
14:39Yeah, you faked
14:40that phone call for Drew.
14:42Yeah, it was no big deal.
14:43Yes, it was.
14:44Drew said you were
14:45the only silver lining
14:46that came out
14:47of that whole mess.
14:48You and what you did for him.
14:51And what did you do?
14:52I just did my job.
14:54Well, you have made
14:55quite an impression on Drew.
14:57And he thinks
14:58you could have
14:58a great future in politics.
15:01Well, I will leave you two
15:03to enjoy the sunshine.
15:04Happy 4th.
15:05Happy 4th.
15:06Happy 4th.
15:07We need to talk.
15:10I know what you're
15:11going to say.
15:12Pro Tech, when you think
15:12you know what a woman's
15:13about to say,
15:14let her say it.
15:15Next time I will.
15:16But this time,
15:17I know you think
15:18I should keep my distance
15:19from Drew.
15:19It's not just about Drew.
15:21It's all of the quarter mains.
15:23They are all crazy
15:24and they will make you
15:25go crazy
15:26if you get too close to them.
15:35Case in point.
15:37Hello, Gio.
15:40I didn't know if you'd
15:41talk to me
15:42because you haven't
15:42answered my texts.
15:43We need to make this quick.
15:44It's a holiday.
15:45We're slammed in.
15:46We're short to a pool tendons.
15:47I understand,
15:48but unless someone's drowning,
15:49it's...
15:50I can wait.
15:51This is urgent.
15:52Why?
15:53Is everything okay?
15:55No, it's not.
15:59I...
15:59I think your life
16:01is in danger.
16:05You don't need
16:06to worry about me.
16:07Okay?
16:08I don't care about
16:09any quarter main drum.
16:10My only interest
16:11is politics.
16:12Maybe it's not forever,
16:14but...
16:15You know,
16:15after football,
16:16it feels really good
16:17to be interested
16:18in something.
16:19And that's great.
16:20But you need to understand
16:22and accept the same way
16:23that I have
16:24that the quarter mains
16:25are always going
16:26to be battling
16:26something.
16:27And if you missed
16:28last week quarter mains
16:29argument,
16:30that's okay.
16:31You can catch up
16:32with the quarter main fight.
16:34But you just have to remember
16:36you can't get stuck
16:37in the middle of it.
16:40Hurry, Daddy.
16:42I want to show you
16:42my backstroke.
16:43It's mostly floating
16:44with kicking.
16:45I'm not good
16:45at the arms yet.
16:47I can't wait
16:48to go in the water.
16:51I think I see
16:52your instructor, Amanda.
16:52Let's go, buddy.
16:53We don't want to be late.
16:54I do not want you
16:59to betray your principles.
17:01I want you to beat
17:03Ezra Boyle.
17:04And I want that, too.
17:07But you're falling behind
17:08in the polling.
17:10You're still ahead of Boyle,
17:11but, Mom,
17:12it's not a good sign.
17:15No, that is not a good sign.
17:16No, it's maddening.
17:18How can you,
17:19of all people,
17:21be losing ground
17:21to Boyle?
17:22He is corrupt
17:24and so unqualified.
17:27Believe me, sweetheart,
17:28I'm well aware.
17:29Then you know
17:30that you cannot
17:31hand the city
17:32to someone like him.
17:34If you truly
17:36want to save
17:37Port Charles,
17:38you need to stay
17:39exactly where you are,
17:41in the mayor's office.
17:44So I guess
17:45the question is,
17:47how far are you
17:49willing to go
17:49to make that happen?
17:52Natalia Ramirez
17:53was facing up to
17:55five years in prison
17:55for her DWI.
17:57Then I offered
17:58her a lifeline.
18:00If she was willing
18:01to turn over evidence
18:02on you,
18:04my office would
18:04dismiss the charges.
18:06And she agreed.
18:09So,
18:10imagine my surprise
18:12when Miss Ramirez
18:13wound up dead
18:14with two of your men
18:15coming and going
18:17right outside.
18:18Okay,
18:18you want to hear
18:19the truth?
18:21I'm all ears.
18:22Here it is.
18:24ADA Turner.
18:26All this
18:27has nothing
18:28to do with me.
18:30Not really.
18:32Then,
18:32what is it about,
18:34Mr. Corinthos?
18:35You hauled in
18:36Natalia
18:37on some trumped-up
18:38charges,
18:40leveraged it
18:42against her,
18:42and then you
18:43persuaded her
18:44to give you
18:46information
18:47that might
18:49incriminate me.
18:51Might.
18:54You think
18:55you're the one
18:56who got her
18:59killed?
19:00Yeah,
19:03I've been looking
19:04to the fire
19:04of Charlie's,
19:06but I had no idea
19:07the people involved
19:07were Selena's men.
19:09So,
19:10what do you think
19:10about them
19:11as suspects?
19:12Not much,
19:13really,
19:14because I don't
19:14think Selena
19:15would risk
19:16crossing Sunny,
19:17and I know
19:17that she would
19:17not target
19:18Christina.
19:20So,
19:20if Selena
19:20wasn't behind
19:21this,
19:21who's setting
19:22her up?
19:23You already
19:24know the answer.
19:27Sidwell.
19:29Gio,
19:29I don't know
19:30if you follow
19:30the news,
19:31but Charlie's
19:33pub went up
19:34in flames
19:34last night.
19:36I heard
19:36something about
19:37that.
19:37Did you also
19:38hear that police
19:39suspect arson?
19:42And Sunny's
19:43daughter,
19:44your aunt
19:44Christina,
19:46was trapped
19:46in that fire.
19:48She was?
19:49Yeah,
19:49luckily,
19:50somebody saw
19:50the flames
19:51and got her
19:51out in time.
19:53Is she okay?
19:55She has
19:56minor injuries,
19:58unlike
19:58your uncle
20:00Michael,
20:01who sustained
20:02severe injuries
20:04in a previous
20:05fire.
20:06But Christina
20:07could easily
20:08have died,
20:09and for the
20:09same reason
20:10that Michael
20:12almost did.
20:14Sunny
20:15go at those.
20:18I hate that
20:19you're in this
20:20position.
20:21I don't love
20:22it either,
20:23but we all
20:24agreed to let
20:24Sunny invest.
20:26Everyone except
20:27Tracy, so we're
20:28never living this
20:28down.
20:29No, she enjoys
20:30it too much,
20:31and this time
20:31she was actually
20:32right.
20:33Look, I know
20:34how much you
20:35love Sunny.
20:36I really do
20:37love him.
20:38But if we turn
20:40in the financials
20:41and Sunny gets
20:41prosecuted,
20:43top of everything
20:44else, Gio will
20:45hate me even
20:46more than he
20:46already does.
20:48Is there any
20:49way we can wait
20:50until we're
20:50subpoenaed?
20:51I wish we
20:52could, but no,
20:54we have to get
20:55ahead of this.
20:56No, no, no,
20:57that's the wrong
20:57file.
21:02What is this?
21:04And why do
21:05you have it?
21:07That was supposed
21:08to be my revenge
21:10against Lulu.
21:13I know how much
21:14you were looking
21:15for with that
21:15cacao.
21:16Yeah, it works,
21:18but even if my
21:20mom didn't have
21:20to work, we'd
21:21probably cancel
21:21the cacao.
21:23Why?
21:24Things have been
21:25tense between
21:25my parents.
21:30Why we hasn't
21:31seen yet?
21:32Please
21:32read for us.
21:34Michael, I'm
21:35going to see
21:35my children
21:36eventually.
21:37The visitation
21:38hearing is
21:39August 1st.
21:39It's less than
21:40a month.
21:40Probably then I
21:41guess we'll see
21:41on August 1st.
21:43Until then,
21:43I am asking
21:44the police.
21:45I'll make this
21:46harder for Wiley
21:46than it has to be.
21:56Gio, Sonny
21:57and his business
21:58put everyone
21:59around him
22:00in danger,
22:01especially his
22:02children.
22:02I know how
22:03you feel about
22:04Sonny, but
22:04he is my
22:05grandfather.
22:06I know.
22:07And the people
22:08who are after
22:09Sonny now
22:10know that too.
22:11But luckily,
22:11I have no
22:12intention of
22:13losing you
22:14because of
22:15that man.
22:15Well, not
22:16yours to lose.
22:19You're a
22:19quarter, mate.
22:21And like it
22:21or not,
22:22you are.
22:24And we may
22:25be related,
22:25but you don't
22:26own me.
22:27And you
22:28never will.
22:29guys,
22:30it's a hot
22:34day.
22:36Maybe we
22:37should order
22:37some iced
22:38teas and
22:38cool down.
22:42This
22:43has all
22:44the details
22:45of
22:45Sonny's
22:46investments,
22:47so let's
22:48call the lawyers
22:49and we can
22:49turn it into
22:50the DA's
22:51office.
22:52Yeah,
22:52that can
22:53wait.
22:54What did you
22:55mean by
22:55revenge?
22:57Okay.
22:59Remember when
22:59we were at
22:59your place and
23:00Lulu refused
23:01to apologize?
23:02Vividly.
23:04And I'm sure
23:04you recall her
23:05bragging about
23:06how she would
23:07never lie to
23:07her own
23:08children.
23:09And then I
23:11remembered the
23:12story about
23:13Brit Westbourne
23:14stealing an
23:15embryo from
23:15Lulu and
23:16Dante and
23:16trying to
23:17pass the
23:17baby off as
23:18her own.
23:18The baby
23:19turned out to
23:19be Rocco,
23:20and I wanted
23:21to know if
23:22it was true.
23:23Why didn't
23:23you just ask
23:24me?
23:25I could have
23:25told you that
23:26it was true and
23:26everything else
23:27that happened.
23:28I needed
23:28more than
23:29that.
23:30I needed
23:31proof.
23:31why?
23:33Why do you
23:34need Brooklyn?
23:37Did you show
23:38Rocco that
23:39file?
23:41So the only
23:42reason I was
23:43born is because
23:44this Brit person
23:45was trying to
23:45trap Emma's
23:46dad in a
23:47relationship.
23:48Dude, remember
23:49what Emma said?
23:50There's more to
23:50the story than
23:51that.
23:52But my mom
23:53wasn't my mom.
23:54I mean, she
23:55was, but she's
23:56also not.
23:57Your mom is
23:58your mom.
23:59Period.
24:00So what?
24:01Whatever you
24:01got here, or
24:02however it
24:02happened, I'm
24:04glad it did.
24:06And so is
24:06everybody else.
24:09Almost.
24:12Thanks.
24:14And I'm glad
24:15you told me the
24:15truth.
24:16It's not like
24:17anyone else did.
24:19If you hadn't
24:20found that file,
24:21do you think my
24:21parents would have
24:22ever told me the
24:23truth?
24:24Mr. Ramirez's
24:25blood alcohol level
24:26was well above the
24:27legal limit.
24:28And as such, the
24:30DWI charge was
24:31real, as were
24:32the potential
24:33consequences.
24:34Potential
24:34consequences.
24:35Did you mention
24:36to her that the
24:37five-year
24:37consequences was
24:40a possibility, or
24:41did you make it
24:42sound like it was
24:43a done deal as
24:43soon as she sat
24:44down without her
24:46attorney present?
24:47You know, I
24:52offered her a
24:53great deal.
24:55And yes, I
24:55pushed her to give
24:56evidence against
24:57you.
24:57She really didn't
24:57want to, but I
24:59made it clear that
24:59she had no choice.
25:00And how'd that
25:01work out for you?
25:02So either Natalia
25:03was squeezed so
25:04tight she killed
25:06herself, or you
25:07killed her to shut
25:09her up.
25:09I didn't kill her!
25:11We know you
25:11didn't do it
25:12yourself.
25:13I mean, you were
25:13busy at your
25:14granddaughter's
25:14christening.
25:15But associates
25:16of yours did
25:17drop her off at
25:18her room at the
25:19Metro Court.
25:20Yeah, yeah, that
25:21was my guy.
25:23I hired nice
25:24guys.
25:26I'm sure.
25:28Well, whether
25:30someone forced
25:31her to ingest high
25:32amounts of alcohol
25:33and tranquilizers,
25:34or she did it to
25:35herself, you and
25:37I both had a hand
25:38in her death.
25:43Wouldn't I show
25:44it to Rocco?
25:45After all, St.
25:46Lulu of truth and
25:47honesty would never
25:48keep secrets from her
25:49own children.
25:50I'm sure Rocco already
25:51knows, right?
25:52When would she have
25:53told him?
25:54During her four-year
25:55coma?
25:55Look, I get why
25:56Lulu didn't tell
25:57Rocco when he was
25:58younger that Brit was
25:59basically her surrogate,
26:01but he's way too old
26:02now to still be in the
26:03dark.
26:04But Lulu is the one
26:05that you're mad at.
26:06But you're going to
26:06end up hurting Rocco.
26:08I know!
26:10That's why I didn't
26:10tell him.
26:12You're a politician,
26:13mom.
26:13I'm sorry, but that's
26:16just the reality.
26:17Okay, so what are you
26:18saying?
26:18That I have to
26:20sacrifice my family,
26:23my principals,
26:25in order to beat
26:26Ezra Boyle?
26:27Well, if you want to
26:29win, and go on to do
26:31great things for the
26:33city and the citizens,
26:34just like you always
26:35have, something has to
26:37change.
26:37But I really believed
26:41that I could just be
26:41straightforward with the
26:43voters, you know?
26:44To be honest with them
26:45and trust them to
26:46understand the complexity
26:47of this situation.
26:49The electorate doesn't
26:50care about complexities.
26:52They just, they read
26:53headlines, not articles.
26:54I would know.
26:55I wrote for a tabloid.
26:59There's something I really
27:00want to tell you that
27:01Sonny told me in
27:03confidence, but I must
27:05know that it stays right
27:06here between us.
27:08Got it.
27:10It's off the record.
27:11Okay, good.
27:13Sonny told me that
27:15Sidwell was going to
27:16bring violence into
27:18poor Charles, and then
27:20that fire happened.
27:23So, I am not about to
27:27be manipulated by Sidwell's
27:30scare tactics, because I
27:31don't scare.
27:33But they do scare the
27:34public.
27:36And Boyle is in Sidwell's
27:41pocket.
27:42So, if he wins, you'd
27:45essentially be handing the
27:46keys to the city, to
27:48Sidwell.
27:49So, you're starting to
27:51understand now there's more
27:52than one thing at play
27:53here, right?
27:54So, honey, if I were to
27:57disavow Sonny now, I might
28:00actually be playing right
28:01into Ezra Boyle's hands
28:02and Sidwell's hands, I
28:05must be very, very smart
28:08about my next move.
28:10Because if I'm not
28:11careful, poor Charles could
28:14go from a bad situation to
28:16much worse and like that.
28:18So, I have read the op-ed,
28:20Sonny's a threat to public
28:22safety, a magnet for
28:23violence.
28:23What better way to prove
28:26that than by torching his
28:27daughter's place of
28:28business?
28:29You should be talking to
28:30Sidwell.
28:31Well, that'd be a lot
28:32easier if his ex-wife wasn't
28:33found dead in a hotel room
28:34last night with one of
28:35Sonny's guards standing
28:36outside in the hallway.
28:37You know, your dad had
28:38nothing to do with
28:39Natalia's death.
28:40I do believe that.
28:41But I also know that
28:42Natalia had evidence she
28:43was going to give to the
28:44ADA that could
28:45incriminate Sonny.
28:46Anyone else, he's a
28:47suspect.
28:48The fact that I believe he
28:49didn't do this means I'm
28:50not objective.
28:51Well, it's your father.
28:52There's always been a
28:53conflict of interest.
28:54What's the problem right
28:55now?
28:55Well, there isn't a
28:56problem.
28:56I'm not even allowed on
28:57the case.
28:58Well, that's for the
28:59best.
29:02Natalia was a strong
29:04person.
29:06She had a lot going on.
29:08People really didn't see.
29:11But in the end, you
29:12never know what drives a
29:15person to do what they
29:18did.
29:18But you still blame me.
29:24You were doing your job.
29:26I don't have to like it,
29:28but that's what you were
29:28doing.
29:31How Natalia dealt with it
29:33is on her.
29:36Not you.
29:40Go for the questions.
29:41I'm really worried about my
29:54parents.
29:56And I don't know.
29:58I mean, I want them to work
29:59things through because I want
30:00them to stay together.
30:01Of course you do.
30:03They're your parents.
30:04I just don't even know why
30:05it's bothering me so much.
30:06It's not like they were
30:08together while I was growing
30:09up.
30:10There is nothing wrong
30:11with wanting love to last.
30:12Emma, this really doesn't
30:16concern you.
30:17Could you leave us alone,
30:18please?
30:18Emma's my friend.
30:20I'd like her to stay.
30:21Or we can both leave.
30:23It's up to you.
30:25He's just going to tell me
30:26later anyway, so I may as
30:28well hear it firsthand.
30:29Okay.
30:32I know you're not going to
30:33like what I have to say.
30:37Sonny, your grandfather is
30:40a dangerous man.
30:41Not the man.
30:43Especially to you.
30:44You're his family.
30:45Someone is targeting his
30:47family.
30:48I do not want you to be the
30:49next victim.
30:50Well, I won't be.
30:52You don't know that.
30:53Gio, just come home.
30:55If you don't want to live in
30:55the main house, you can live
30:57in the gatehouse.
30:58That's empty.
30:58Or we could move Trina and
31:01Jocelyn and you could have
31:02the apartment over the garage.
31:03For the last time, I like
31:05where I'm living and I'm not
31:06moving back in.
31:07You're not my family.
31:09Gio, I understand that you
31:13have been hurt badly by people
31:16in that house.
31:18But hurt feelings are not
31:21worth your life.
31:23Tracy, Gio is going to be
31:25just fine, okay?
31:26My grandma's literally the
31:27police commissioner.
31:28Oh, yeah.
31:30And a lot of good she's done
31:32to curb crime in Port
31:33Charles.
31:34The police can't protect you.
31:36And you can?
31:37I'm your best man.
31:42You know, I might consider it
31:43if this was actually about my
31:45safety, but it's not.
31:48This is about you trying to get
31:49me to reject my grandfather.
31:51And I'm not going to do it.
31:52I was swimming so good I could talk
32:01now.
32:01Why could you not?
32:03Daddy, can you show me how to do
32:04a double sub whistle on the
32:06diving board?
32:07Not today, buddy.
32:08We're going to keep going.
32:10You can show me.
32:11I'll show the double sub
32:12when you get home, though, yeah?
32:15It'll be fun.
32:16We'll be there quick, okay?
32:17Don't worry about it.
32:18Mommy!
32:27Hi, sweetheart.
32:31I missed you so much.
32:39I saw you doing the backstroke.
32:41You did great.
32:42Okay, buddy.
32:45It's time to go.
32:47Why do you want to stay in school
32:49with Mommy?
32:52Honey, I wish I could.
32:54But the judge says we have to wait
32:55a little longer before we can
32:56spend time together.
32:58I hate that judge.
33:00I know.
33:01I miss you, Mommy.
33:04And I miss you and Amelia.
33:07But hopefully the judge will
33:08change her mind soon, okay?
33:11All right, big man.
33:13It's time to go.
33:18Right now.
33:21Yeah, good boy.
33:22Go with Daddy, okay?
33:23Okay.
33:27I love you, Wiley.
33:29I love you, too, Mommy.
33:31I think we all want to believe
33:37that when people make a commitment
33:39to each other,
33:40that it means something.
33:42That no matter what,
33:43you don't give up on each other.
33:46Yeah.
33:47That's true.
33:49But it's a risk.
33:52Because you need to trust someone,
33:53and once you let them in,
33:57that's when they can disappoint you.
33:58Maybe.
34:01But if they're worth it,
34:03then so is the risk, right?
34:05And you, Trina Robinson,
34:07you are worth it.
34:09You are worth it to me.
34:13I never thought that I'd feel like this again.
34:17But with time,
34:19I see more and more.
34:21You're worth it to me, too.
34:26I don't want to wait for the stupid judge.
34:29I want Mommy to come home.
34:32I want to be with her now.
34:33I know, but...
34:36I know.
34:42Clearly, I have gone about this the wrong way.
34:45You are an adult,
34:46and I can't force you to do anything.
34:49Great.
34:50Then we're done here.
34:51But I have a request.
34:56I want you, after work,
34:57to go by Charlie's Pub
34:59and see what's left after the fire.
35:03Then I think you should go to the hospital
35:05to visit your Aunt Christina,
35:08where she's recovering.
35:09I know what you're doing here.
35:11And after that,
35:13I want you to go to the cemetery
35:17and visit your Uncle Morgan's gravesite.
35:23He was 23 when he died,
35:26a year older than you.
35:28He was killed in a car bomb
35:30because of his father.
35:39Mayor Collins,
35:46to what do we owe the pleasure?
35:47I need to see Sonny Krenthos.
35:50Of course.
35:51Mr. Krenthos is still in interrogation.
35:54Go right in.
36:09Are you sure you want to be seen with me?
36:13This can't wait.
36:15This is going on.
36:17You warned me that violence was coming to poor Charles.
36:21But the thing is,
36:23warnings without details don't help me much.
36:28I need to know what you know, Sonny.
36:33You know, there was a time
36:35when you were just Sonny's son, the cop.
36:37Now, after all these years,
36:40we lived in the same house together,
36:43a house that I swore
36:43that I would never move back into.
36:46And our kids, they're like brothers.
36:49Yeah, man.
36:50Who would have thought that?
36:52I don't want any trouble with you.
36:56And I don't want to take any action
36:58that involves you.
37:03I wish that meant I could believe
37:05that you and my dad
37:06weren't going to try and get retaliation
37:07for Charlie's,
37:08but unfortunately,
37:10I do know better.
37:23Yeah, you got eyes on him yet?
37:26No?
37:27All right, I'll let you know
37:32when Sonny wants to move.
37:34I had it all set up
37:36for Rocco to accidentally find the file,
37:40but I couldn't do it.
37:43Love Rocco.
37:45He's already been through enough,
37:46and Lulu may have it coming,
37:48but he doesn't.
37:50Thank God.
37:52Look at Brooklyn.
37:53Glenn, I know that Lulu hurt you,
37:56whether she intended to or not.
37:58She totally did, but whatever.
38:01Piling on the hurt doesn't solve anything.
38:05Isn't that what I just said?
38:07I could have gotten back at Lulu
38:09for what she did to me and Gio,
38:11but I chose not to
38:13because I'm better than her.
38:17Hey, I didn't expect to see you back.
38:19I thought you were working today.
38:22But I'm glad you're here.
38:23There's something that I need to tell you.
38:26Tell me about Britt Westmore.
38:33On the next general hospital,
38:34you didn't give birth to me, she did?
38:36One of us has to be the bigger person.
38:38This isn't working.
38:39We're done.
38:40I'd be lying if I said
38:41that there wasn't another side.
38:43If you're looking for answers,
38:44look to him.
38:45There may be a way
38:46to contain the damage.
38:49We'll see you next time.
