00:00Like most families, the Ashford's have faced their fair share of adversity.
00:07But when it counts, when it really counts, we rely on each other.
00:12Each other's love and tenacity.
00:17And by the grace of God, we come through, but we not only come through, we tend to soar.
00:27And there is no finer example of that than my father, my dad, my pop.
00:35That's right.
00:36Come on, granddad.
00:38Thank you, son.
00:39I really need this.
00:40Hold on, dad.
00:41I'm not done yet.
00:42All my dad's life, he practiced his art in the shadows, the sessions, the cruise ships,
00:51the dive bars, wherever and whenever my pop was there working on his craft.
00:58What he didn't realize, though, that while he was working on his craft, he was also developing
01:03a reputation.
01:04Yeah, that's right.
01:06A reputation of respect from his fellow musicians.
01:11So this tour with Wynton Marcellus, sir, this is long overdue and very, very well earned.
01:21So, dad, it is time for you to step into the spotlight and show the world what you
01:31can do.
01:32Yeah!
01:33To Marcellus!
01:34To Marcellus!
01:35Woohoo!
01:36I love you guys!
01:37Good to see you.
01:38Everything okay?
01:39Yeah, you know, for the first time in a long time, everything is better than okay.
01:50We got a donor for Lulu.
01:52It's Sam.
01:55Scrunched up an extra pillow for you.
01:57Oh!
01:58Do you have everything you need?
02:00Can I get you anything else?
02:03No, I'm good.
02:06Thank you for taking such good care of me.
02:09I'm happy to.
02:11Hey, honey.
02:14Hi, Sam.
02:17Hi.
02:19I'm here as your patient advocate and as your friend.
02:22How are you doing?
02:24I'm good.
02:25Things are moving very fast because of Lulu's condition, but I want to make sure that you're
02:30not feeling rushed and answer any questions or concerns that you might have.
02:35I'm actually fine.
02:37My brother Lucas is going to stop by and go over everything with me.
02:42Okay.
02:43Try to get some rest.
02:47Greetings!
02:48We come bearing good cheer.
02:51And balloons.
02:52Thank you so much for doing this.
02:58You have worked so hard for me.
03:02Rehearsing my testimony for hours, drilling me on what to say and how to say it.
03:07Do you feel comfortable now with me taking the stand?
03:11How do you feel?
03:13I feel good.
03:17I feel confident.
03:19Ready.
03:22Oh, did I...
03:28What?
03:32Usually, having a defendant testify is a little risky.
03:36It makes it easy for the prosecution to score points during cross.
03:42Points?
03:45Are you saying that we wasted all that time rehearsing?
03:50Are you not letting me take the stand?
03:54Yeah, come in.
03:57Oh, good.
03:59Thank you so much for coming.
04:01I'd have been here even if you hadn't reached out.
04:04There's something I need to tell you.
04:06Okay, fine.
04:07But first, there's been some developments with Sidwell.
04:09Robert and I have a daughter.
04:15What?
04:35Samantha, your generosity just renders me speechless.
04:39I'm just really glad I can help you.
04:43Molly, put the balloons down.
04:46Where are your mom, Molly and Christina?
04:48Oh, I've already seen them tonight.
04:51Meanwhile, it appears you have revelers aplenty,
04:54even though I advised you to get some rest before surgery.
05:00We all know organ donation is a beautiful thing.
05:04And so are you.
05:09Here you go.
05:13You know, we owe Trina for inviting us to this.
05:16Feels like forever since we had a night out.
05:18There's not enough hours in the day.
05:20Well, I'm here now.
05:22And there are plenty of hours in the night.
05:29Want another drink?
05:31I'm not done with this one yet.
05:33Thanks.
05:43Why aren't you going to answer that?
05:45Just mom letting me know what time Sam's surgery is tomorrow.
05:50Crazy that she's going to be Lulu's donor.
05:52I know.
05:56Hey, if you want to go see Sam...
05:58I'm not sure she wants to see me right now.
06:03Besides, I want to be here for you and your family.
06:10This is a cool spot.
06:12Do you think your grandpa's going to play tonight?
06:14I'm not sure.
06:16I have some of his old recordings if you want to listen.
06:18But I just wanted you two to meet before he takes off.
06:23Since you're both musicians.
06:25That was some toast.
06:27Son, I hope I can live up to those words.
06:30You already have.
06:33We're so proud of you.
06:35You're stepping up, grabbing this opportunity.
06:38I mean, I'm already checking for tour dates.
06:41So I can grab us some tickets.
06:43It shouldn't be too much for us to manage a quick hop across the country.
06:45That's right.
06:47Oh, that sounds good.
06:49You mind if I tag along?
06:51I would love that.
06:55If you keep your composure,
06:57you testify the way we practice,
06:59you will convince the jury.
07:03You're very compelling when you want to be.
07:05You find me compelling, Lulu?
07:11At times.
07:13Very.
07:17Well, I will do my very best on the stand.
07:21And I will do my best to make sure that you don't go to prison.
07:25Well, that's your job, right?
07:27Defend your client, guilty or not.
07:29Yes, and I am very good at it.
07:33So what about this client?
07:35Do you think I'm guilty?
07:37Or do you believe that Christina's fall was an accident?
07:41What did you say?
07:43Robert and I have a daughter.
07:49That's not possible.
07:51You've never said anything all these years.
07:55I'm sure you understand the concept of having a baby
07:57and not telling the father.
08:01Does he know?
08:03He found out this morning.
08:05Poor man.
08:07Yes, history has repeated itself.
08:11So you're in no position to throw stones.
08:13Robin was five
08:15when Robert found out.
08:17Five.
08:19And you've been sitting on this information?
08:21Since when?
08:23Ever since the WSB
08:25tried to kill Robert
08:27and we all believed they'd succeeded.
08:31And your daughter?
08:33Where is she? Do you even know?
08:35Of course I know.
08:37She's here in Port Charles.
08:41Sasha Corbin is our daughter.
08:47Sasha.
08:51Well, this is low.
08:53Even for you.
08:59So Sam is going to be Lulu's donor.
09:01I don't want kids staying.
09:03Or Rocko.
09:05I mean, he's beside himself excited, obviously.
09:08Scout and Danny,
09:10they're happy.
09:12I think babies are a little scared for their mom.
09:16You know, we've already done so much bonding
09:18as a family.
09:20I feel like this is going to bring us closer together.
09:24Well, you know, it's great the way you two co-parent.
09:26How well your kids get along.
09:28Oh, well, we have our moments.
09:30That's for sure.
09:32But we blended better
09:34than I think I could ever have hoped.
09:37You have a great family.
09:41That's Sam.
09:43I give her all the credit.
09:45She's been doing all the heavy lifting,
09:47especially these last few months.
09:49I've said it before,
09:53but I swear to you,
09:55Christina's fall was a terrible accident.
09:57Ava,
09:59I wouldn't have taken your case if I thought otherwise.
10:01Well, thank you for believing me.
10:04How is Molly reacting
10:06to you defending me?
10:10Uh,
10:12rough.
10:14She can't see it yet,
10:16but I took your case
10:18for her sake.
10:20The only way Molly is going to be able
10:22to get past her anger
10:24and her drive for revenge
10:26is if she accepts that Christina's fall
10:28was an accident.
10:30Then, hopefully,
10:32you're a good father.
10:36Very few people would agree with you.
10:38Doesn't make it any less true.
10:42They say the same things about me.
10:46I love my daughter with my whole heart.
10:56Um, I'm sorry.
10:58I have to take this.
11:02I love you.
11:06I'm not sure that anyone
11:08has ever hurt Robert as much as you.
11:10Every single time you've
11:12swung back into town,
11:14you just tear his heart into pieces.
11:16And now you've kept this
11:18information from him for
11:2020 plus years?
11:22Glass houses and all that,
11:24double agent de vain? Does Sasha know?
11:26Has she known all along?
11:28She just found out.
11:31That is terrible.
11:33That is shameful.
11:35She has been through so much
11:37and now she's...
11:41She's dating Cody Bell.
11:43That is Matt's son.
11:45Why do you think I just told her?
11:47Well, I don't think
11:49that you get any points
11:51for that.
11:53I don't care what you think.
11:55I just lost
11:57my daughter
12:00and the man.
12:02Robert and Sasha will never
12:04speak to me again.
12:06Can you think of one reason why they should?
12:08No way
12:10am I in your grandfather's league.
12:12He plays with the greats.
12:14And so will you. I have no doubts.
12:16But on that note,
12:18see what I did there?
12:20Come with me, Gia. I'm going to introduce you to my granddad.
12:24It's good to see you enjoying yourself.
12:27Well,
12:29you know, I'm just relieved that Alexis
12:31was exonerated.
12:33Now my mom is spending much less time with Sonny.
12:35Yeah, a lot of coincidences
12:37in that case.
12:39Alexis' gun showing up, Sonny's alibi.
12:43How you doing, darling?
12:47I was going to say, I'm doing great.
12:49But I know better than to try to fool you.
12:53I am stressed.
12:56Because of Heather's ruling.
12:58The fact that a judge is even
13:00entertaining this.
13:02It just makes me so nervous.
13:04I hear you, baby.
13:06But we can't do anything
13:08to change any of it.
13:10At least not tonight.
13:12So don't let something that is
13:14out of your control make you
13:16miss the good times with family and friends.
13:26No.
13:28Well, that was quick.
13:30So, uh, where were we?
13:32Um, listen, I took care of the bill.
13:34I'm...
13:36I'm sorry, I have to go.
13:38Oh.
13:40I hope everything's alright.
13:48If Molly and Christina
13:50do show up to visit,
13:52can you run interference for me?
13:54Oh, I am on it.
13:56I know a little something about sister drama.
13:58And every other kind of drama.
14:00Right, uh, you just focus
14:02on being the courageous heroine
14:04of your own story.
14:08Oh!
14:10I must have missed my invitation to the party.
14:12Well, that's what happens
14:14when you come back to town and you don't
14:16come and visit your sister.
14:18I haven't seen you knocking on my door.
14:20Touché.
14:23I know we've both been a little bit busy,
14:25but I'm really glad you're here.
14:27Yeah, me too.
14:31Spinelli, good to see you.
14:33Alicia, Maxie.
14:35Lucas.
14:37We really need to let Sam get her rest.
14:39Okay, okay.
14:47I love you.
14:49And I'll see you later.
14:52Okay.
14:56Don't break into any databases
14:58without me, okay?
15:00Would I dare?
15:04I will not.
15:08Check back in soon.
15:12Well, aren't you the popular one?
15:16I just stopped in to see if you needed anything
15:18or had any questions.
15:21Nope.
15:23I'm good on both of those. Thank you.
15:25Good.
15:27Well, I'm sure that Dr. Comstock will be by
15:29to discuss everything with you,
15:31and he is a great surgeon.
15:33Wait a minute. Dr. Comstock,
15:35I thought you were doing my surgery.
15:37I'm sorry.
15:39I thought you knew.
15:41I can't do that.
15:47Elizabeth,
15:50I need to speak to you.
15:52I'm in the middle of something, Rick.
15:54Elizabeth, it's important.
15:56Oh, God.
15:58What have you done now?
16:02Hi.
16:04Pick up order for Jordan Ashford.
16:06Jordan!
16:08I'm sorry. I didn't see you come in.
16:10I see you're pretty absorbed there.
16:12I get that way sometimes.
16:14Come from a run?
16:16Yeah. I missed my usual morning one.
16:18I admire your dedication.
16:20Hey, back at you.
16:22Laura told me you are performing Lulu's surgery.
16:24Yeah.
16:26I've been doing it for a long time.
16:28I've been doing it for a long time.
16:30I've been doing it for a long time.
16:32I've been doing it for a long time.
16:35Yeah, I thought I'd grab dinner before going to the hospital.
16:37Yeah, I thought I'd grab dinner before going to the hospital.
16:39Well, admirable.
16:41However,
16:43I think you need to do more than just grab dinner.
16:45I think you need to do more than just grab dinner.
16:47You might want to eat it, too.
16:49Oh.
16:51Busted.
16:53If you sit with me,
16:55there's a way better chance I'll eat.
16:57Yeah.
16:59I can do that.
17:01Oh, great.
17:04Do you mind if I ask what changed your mind?
17:06Do you mind if I ask what changed your mind?
17:08You said you were through performing miracles.
17:10Oh.
17:12Lucky asked me to help his sister.
17:14Oh.
17:16Then you can say no.
17:18No.
17:20The man's pulled me out of trouble more than once.
17:22Well, for Laura's family's sake,
17:24I hope you have one more miracle left in you.
17:26I hope you have one more miracle left in you.
17:28Does my heart good, amen,
17:30to see you two together.
17:33Knowing that you...
17:35Well, you made it through
17:37such a terrible time
17:39makes it easier
17:41for me to leave.
17:43Which day gets a little better?
17:45Which day gets a little better?
17:47Have faith, Molly.
17:49And in the future,
17:51if you want to have a family,
17:53if that's what you want,
17:55don't be afraid.
17:57Try again.
18:00Knowing the
18:02time is right
18:04and I...
18:06Oh, of course.
18:08I have no doubt.
18:10You two...
18:12You two are going to make
18:14spectacular parents one day.
18:16Yeah, um...
18:18Will you excuse me
18:20just for a moment?
18:24I don't
18:26really think about the Cates murder
18:28or Sonny, for that matter.
18:30So you've really eased up on your attitude towards him?
18:32I just realized
18:34that it's not my job
18:36to make Sonny face
18:38justice or his conscience.
18:40I've just decided to stay
18:42as far away from him as possible.
18:44Sounds like a wise move.
18:50Not working.
18:52Just turned my ringer on
18:54because my dad said he was going to stop by and I haven't seen him yet.
18:57It's fine, I just came for a drink.
19:05Listen, I just got a call.
19:07Judge Orvis
19:09has ruled in Heather's favor.
19:11Oh, wow.
19:13Yeah, apparently he agreed with my argument
19:15that Heather was suffering from cobalt poisoning
19:17when she committed those murders, therefore she wasn't
19:19in her right mind.
19:21Isn't this all you wanted?
19:23I was hoping that she was going to be transferred to a minimum security facility,
19:26maybe better living conditions, something like that.
19:28And that's not happening?
19:30No! Orvis has vacated her sentence.
19:32Heather's being released.
19:38I should think Robert's in shock, isn't he?
19:42Yeah, he definitely is.
19:44But it's Sasha's reaction
19:46that's the most troubling.
19:48She's in complete denial that she's Robert's daughter.
19:52She doesn't believe you?
19:56I told her that her father was dead
19:58and she thinks this is just another lie.
20:02Clearly she knows you.
20:08Sorry.
20:12I don't know what to do.
20:14Leave?
20:20You're throwing me out.
20:23If you've ever loved Robert
20:27then you should leave town
20:31and maybe never come back
20:33because you being here
20:35is destructive
20:37and I think you're hurting him
20:39and your daughter.
20:41I'm her mother.
20:43Okay.
20:45Then maybe you want to put Sasha's welfare first
20:47above your own.
20:50You think I deserve this pain?
20:52Oh God, I don't know, Holly.
20:54I don't know.
20:56You asked me what I think you should do
20:58and I'm telling you
21:00the best way to help this situation
21:04is if you go.
21:16You know, now that the
21:18the transplant is happening
21:20I
21:22I can't help it. I don't know why
21:24but I keep worrying that Lulu's not going to make it
21:26through the surgery and I'm not
21:28I'm trying to believe
21:30but it
21:34I'm scared.
21:36You want me to go to the hospital with you?
21:38No, that's okay.
21:40I appreciate it.
21:42Don't be hard on yourself.
21:44I know this is serious
21:47and you're preparing for the worst
21:49but you gotta hope for the best, too.
21:51I know, right?
21:53Lulu is a fighter
21:55and Lulu still has a chance
21:57because of Sam
21:59so don't count her out.
22:01It's against hospital policy
22:03for doctors to operate on family members.
22:05Is Dr. Comstock
22:07a better surgeon than you?
22:09Dr. Comstock has stellar credentials.
22:11I didn't ask for his resume.
22:13I asked if he was a better surgeon than you.
22:16No.
22:18Okay, well that's my point.
22:20I want you.
22:22I shouldn't be penalized just because we're related.
22:24You're not being penalized.
22:26It's just the way things are done around here.
22:28Well, do you think
22:30you can perform the surgery
22:32on me or not?
22:34I can't discuss Lulu's surgery
22:36with you
22:38but the odds of a patient rejecting
22:40this type of transplant are already high.
22:42Yeah,
22:45my odds weren't great when I got my transplant
22:47and here I am.
22:49You've been a recipient?
22:51Yeah.
22:53I received
22:55a kidney a few years ago
22:57from an
22:59unlikely donor.
23:01My situation
23:03was dire and
23:05my family was losing hope.
23:07Look at me now.
23:11I am.
23:14Okay, I'm...
23:16figuratively
23:18I just ran six miles.
23:20Is that why you look so good?
23:28Thank you so much for coming.
23:30Rick was called away
23:32and I am not ready to call our night.
23:34You and Rick
23:36had dinner?
23:38More of a strategy
23:40session, really.
23:42Thank you again for referring Rick to me.
23:44I feel so good
23:46having such a tenacious
23:48lawyer in my corner.
23:50I think unscrupulous
23:52is probably a better word.
23:54Ava, don't forget that Rick
23:56cares about Rick. As long as your
23:58well-being aligns with his love of money
24:00then you're golden.
24:02Being a little hard on him, right?
24:04He married me
24:06when I was in a fragile state
24:08of mind and then he conspired
24:11and put me in the loony bin.
24:13So no, Ava,
24:15not being hard on him.
24:17Yeah, people can change.
24:19You know that
24:21as well as anybody, right?
24:25I see how much he loves his daughter.
24:27I see how passionate
24:29he is about the law.
24:31Look how hard
24:33he's working to defend me.
24:35Ava...
24:38You're interested
24:40in Rick?
24:44No!
24:46Heather's getting out of Bentonville?
24:48When? Tomorrow. What?
24:50Look, I never thought that she would be
24:52freed. I was just doing my job. I was advocating
24:54for my client. I honestly don't
24:56believe that Heather is a threat to society any longer.
24:58Well, I'm sure the people she terrorized
25:00don't feel that way. Yeah, probably not.
25:02Probably? Rick!
25:04Why did you come to me?
25:08The Ashford's are having a going-away party for Marshall
25:10and Molly's going to be there. Oh, great!
25:12Well, then all the people you need to tell will be in one room.
25:14I don't want to spoil the celebration.
25:16Don't you think they should know
25:18before they see it on the news?
25:20Would you go with me? Oh, no.
25:22Oh, please. No, no, no, no, no.
25:24This is all you, buddy. You need to take responsibility
25:26for just doing your job.
25:29Oh.
25:31Well, I'm not complaining.
25:33But, uh,
25:35what brought that on?
25:37You did.
25:39It was such a wonderful speech that you gave Marshall.
25:41He was so incredibly
25:43touched.
25:45And this party,
25:47it's beautiful.
25:49Honestly, honey, I'm just glad
25:51to see you smiling again
25:53and that you're happy.
25:55I'm just glad to see you smiling
25:58and that you're happy.
26:00And you're right.
26:02It's a good party. Good turnout.
26:04Good day.
26:06So, Gio
26:08studies at PCU.
26:10He plays violin, and he's really good.
26:12Wow.
26:14It's amazing to meet you, Mr. Ashford.
26:16Wynton Marsalis is one of my favorites.
26:18Oh, mine, too.
26:20I'm sorry I'm not going to get to hear you play tonight.
26:22Oh, well, maybe you'll be back in time for the spring show.
26:24I hope so.
26:26I'll miss you, too, honey.
26:28And I wish that you would pursue
26:30your own music.
26:32What?
26:34Yeah, Trina?
26:36She has the voice of an angel,
26:38and it would really be something if she trained.
26:44It's good to see you and TJ making an effort.
26:48Things okay with the two of you?
26:50Still healing.
26:53That's going to take some time.
26:57Sometimes it's so hard
26:59I can barely breathe.
27:01Have you shared this with TJ?
27:05TJ's got his own grief.
27:07I don't want to put this on him.
27:09Okay.
27:11I'm going to say this,
27:13and then I'm going to butt out of your life
27:15for a minute.
27:17Right now,
27:19I just see the two of you
27:22and I understand.
27:24Sometimes all we can do
27:26is go through to get through.
27:28It's a fair assessment.
27:30But, baby,
27:32the words that you don't say to each other,
27:34they're building a wall
27:36between you.
27:38Tell TJ how you feel
27:40and listen to how he's feeling.
27:44That's the only way the two of you
27:46are going to have a future together.
27:49Auntie,
27:51are you sure
27:53you don't want me to drive Dad to the airport?
27:55I'm fine, and baby,
27:57it was a lovely send-off.
27:59Marshall's so happy.
28:01Well, he deserves it.
28:03Yes, he does.
28:05Enjoy your sex.
28:07Enjoy your sex.
28:09Enjoy your sex.
28:11Enjoy your sex.
28:13Be happy.
28:15I love you, Granddad.
28:18I love you more.
28:20Baby girl,
28:22you're going to be just fine.
28:24All right, let's get a move on.
28:26We don't want to miss that plane.
28:28See that?
28:30She loves bossing me around.
28:32I'm coming.
28:34I'm coming.
28:48Bye, all.
28:50Y'all be kind
28:52to each other.
28:54Much love.
28:56Yeah.
29:00Ada, listen to me.
29:02Rick Lansing is not
29:04relationship material.
29:08I can take care of myself,
29:10you know that.
29:12I'm not helpless.
29:14I'm definitely not naive.
29:16But you are vulnerable,
29:18and that has worked against you
29:20in the past.
29:22If you are referring to the late
29:24and unlamented Agent Cates,
29:26he was using me,
29:28and I was most definitely using him.
29:30I'm not talking about Cates.
29:32I'm talking about Nicholas.
29:36Tomorrow is a big day.
29:38You guys get some rest.
29:40We'll do.
29:42Night, Mom.
29:45I love you.
29:53What's on your mind?
29:55It's just so strange
29:57that Sam ends up being the one
29:59who's going to save Lulu.
30:01There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
30:03than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
30:05Well, I never would have dreamed up this.
30:07If Lulu wasn't in a coma,
30:09she and Dante would be together.
30:11We can't assume
30:13that Dante and Lulu would have reunited.
30:15They had long since divorced,
30:17and Lulu was engaged to Dustin.
30:19Uh, no, she wasn't.
30:21She confided in me after the explosion
30:23that she was still in love with Dante.
30:25She just never got the chance
30:27to tell him.
30:29But you never said anything.
30:31I'm saying it to you now.
30:33No, no, I mean to the affected party,
30:35namely Dante.
30:37Uh, no.
30:39Of course I never told Dante.
30:41Right.
30:43Maybe I should have.
30:45Maybe I still should.
30:47To what end?
30:49To make Dante feel guilty about the life
30:51that he's built with Ferris Lamantha,
30:53the family they share?
30:55Well, it was Lulu's family first.
30:57Yes.
30:59Wouldn't she want them to be happy?
31:01I wouldn't.
31:05Well,
31:07you don't know if Lulu will wake up,
31:09so let's just
31:11leave it alone
31:13and let fate decide.
31:15Man, fate and I
31:17have never been besties.
31:19I gotta tell you, letting go
31:21is hard.
31:23Sometimes moving on
31:25is even harder.
31:27I thought Lulu was it
31:29for me, then.
31:31I walked away from her.
31:33I mean, it's my
31:35fault that I lost her.
31:37You and Lulu
31:39weren't done.
31:41Yeah, I know you wanted me to tell her how I felt.
31:43I never got a chance to do that.
31:45Thanks to Julian.
31:47But look,
31:49Sam,
31:51she came out of nowhere.
31:53Like, she snuck up
31:55on me and
31:57she became everything
31:59to me.
32:01She put me and Rocco back together.
32:03She's saving Lulu's life.
32:05I'm coming.
32:07I love Sam more than I ever
32:09thought possible.
32:11What, are you worried
32:13that your emotions are gonna get involved
32:15and you won't be able to perform the surgery?
32:17That's an impossible question
32:19to answer, Sam. Of course
32:21I would be affected if I encountered
32:23a problem with my sister on the table.
32:25Uh, well, is that likely to happen?
32:27Not really.
32:29Your part, the transplant,
32:31is routine. You're healthy.
32:33Sam is the one who's at serious risk.
32:35Exactly. And how many times have you done this before?
32:37Dozens of times.
32:39This is what I'm saying.
32:41I want you to do my surgery.
32:43Do I have to call my patient
32:45advocate in here? Because I will.
32:47You know how persistent Felicia can be.
32:49I'm sure the lawyers have
32:51waivers you can sign.
32:53Okay, I will sign whatever waiver
32:55that they need me to sign
32:57as long as you do the surgery because
32:59there is no one that I trust
33:01more than my brother.
33:03Please?
33:05You win.
33:07Again.
33:11Now you're gonna miss
33:13your grandfather.
33:17Lots of goodbyes
33:19these days.
33:21Yeah.
33:23Dad.
33:25Finally.
33:27Where have you been?
33:29I need to speak to
33:31Curtis and Portia.
33:33Excuse me.
33:37There's just something that I've been
33:39meaning to tell you.
33:41Something happened at the hospital.
33:43Excuse me. Hi.
33:45May I speak with
33:47the two of you in private?
33:49It's important.
33:51It's important.
33:53Okay, we can use my office.
33:55I'm not going anywhere with you.
33:59The deputy
34:01mayor's work is never done.
34:03Well, it's not
34:05saving lives, but... Definitely
34:07improving some.
34:09You had a good day?
34:11Hoping to have one of those tomorrow.
34:13I believe you will.
34:15Good luck with the transplant surgery.
34:17I don't need luck, just skill.
34:19Well, I see your ego's still intact.
34:21Truth is,
34:23you have to think of the best
34:25to be the best.
34:27And that's just
34:29what Lulu needs.
34:39Oh, that
34:41is certainly something I needed
34:43today.
34:45How are you doing?
34:47Better.
34:49Now that I got Lucas
34:51to agree to do the surgery,
34:53Felicia's getting the paperwork done.
34:55Good.
34:57As long as you're comfortable.
35:01I wish I could find the words
35:03to tell you how grateful
35:05I am that you're doing this.
35:07Just kiss me.
35:09It'll show me.
35:11It'd be my absolute pleasure.
35:17...
35:27...
35:29...
35:31Interval?
35:33...
35:41Suspect
35:43at large.
35:45Jen Sidwell spotted in Miami,
35:47Florida.
35:51What are you coming for,
35:53Sidwell?
35:55...
35:57Your appointment's
35:59here, boss.
36:01Show her in.
36:05Holly Sutton, we meet again.
36:07Good to see you,
36:09Mr. Corinthas.
36:11Just call me Sonny.
36:13Well, thanks for meeting with me,
36:15Sonny.
36:17Yeah.
36:19Have a seat.
36:23What can I do for you?
36:27I hear you're a man
36:29of many resources.
36:31Someone who can make things happen.
36:33Depends on the things.
36:35In that case,
36:39I have a business proposition for you.
36:43Nicholas and I are over.
36:47The same with Sonny and me.
36:49But it doesn't make being alone
36:51any easier, does it?
36:53I'm just saying, don't be so
36:55quick to get involved
36:57with something new and shiny.
37:01I will take that under advisement.
37:03Certainly hope you do, Ava.
37:07Because underneath
37:09Rick's charming exterior,
37:11there is a man who loves
37:13two things, himself
37:15and money.
37:17And if you expect anything more,
37:19you're courting
37:21disaster.
37:23Terry.
37:25Hey.
37:27Heads up.
37:29We're gonna need to support Portia in the coming days.
37:31What's going on?
37:33She's about to get some very
37:35bad news.
37:37You know, this can only be about one thing.
37:39Heather Webber.
37:41Am I right?
37:45Yes.
37:47Okay.
37:49So what is it? Come on, everyone, listen.
37:51We have some news about Heather Webber.
37:59Say what you came to say, Rick.
38:05I received a phone call from
38:07George Orvis this evening. He's
38:09ruled in Heather's
38:11favor
38:13and vacated
38:15her conviction.
38:17What does that mean?
38:21As of tomorrow, Heather Webber is a free woman.
38:31I'm the next general hospital.
38:33He isn't to blame. Who is?
38:35If his sister has a shot in hell of making it
38:37through this, she's gonna need me.
38:39This was not the news I was expecting to hear tonight.
38:41That is exactly why I can't drop the case.
38:43Please stop lying for once.
38:45You must be in some kind of trouble.
