02:27so
02:34I'm sorry to interrupt.
02:54I'm going to need to see some ID.
03:04Can I get a menu?
03:18As if you don't know this by heart.
03:24Good to see you, son.
03:26I missed you.
03:34I can't believe it's been five years.
03:57Yeah, time flies when you're having fun.
04:00I'm dead.
04:03Does this mean I didn't make it through the surgery and...
04:08You're dead?
04:09No.
04:12The surgery was a complete success.
04:15So, how are you here?
04:19Well, they sedated you pretty good.
04:22So I thought it was an opportunity for a visit.
04:27If that's okay.
04:29Yeah, I mean, that's all right.
04:31You can visit me anytime you want.
04:34Well, I try to show up when you need me.
04:38Something I want to talk to you about.
04:46You were right.
04:50About all of it.
04:51The last thing I would ever want to do is have you committed.
04:57Well, those papers suggest otherwise.
04:59But I didn't sign them.
05:01I never filed.
05:02Only because Molly found them first.
05:05If it were up to you, I'd be locked up in some padded cell right now.
05:07I changed my mind and I realized that I couldn't do that to you.
05:10But why did you even have them drawn up in the first place?
05:12Molly, I really appreciate how much you love your sister and how much you're supporting her,
05:16but I really need to speak to her alone.
05:18No!
05:21I'm sorry.
05:22Christina wants me here and I'm not abandoning her.
05:25Remember there was a time once when you prayed for this,
05:28for the Davis women to stick together?
05:31This is different.
05:32No, it's not.
05:33Anything you have to say to me, you can also say in front of my sister too.
05:36I thought this was a meeting, not an alfresco training drill.
05:44Stuff to keep you on your toes, don't I?
05:46What if somebody saw you and called the cops?
05:48Then we say I'm your overly affectionate boyfriend and
05:51chokeholds are how I show love.
05:54In your dreams.
05:55You're a freak.
05:57I know.
05:58What's your problem, Jax?
06:00Wake up on the wrong side of the bed today or what?
06:01No, I didn't wake up on any side of the bed
06:04because I spend my entire night trying to catch up in Dalton's class.
06:08How's that going?
06:09Made any progress on the research assistant position?
06:14Kind of.
06:16Could you be a little more specific?
06:19Look, I'm doing everything I can,
06:21but the competition is stiff.
06:24Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you could come out tonight.
06:26And you're sure I'm not going to be a third wheel?
06:28Definitely not.
06:28This is a celebration, not a date.
06:30Well, why isn't it a date?
06:32I thought that you and Kai were...
06:34No, we are.
06:35We are.
06:35And things, for the most part, are great.
06:38But there are parts that aren't.
06:41Well, just one part, really.
06:44You know about Kai's surgery.
06:46Yeah, I heard it's this big experimental deal
06:48that could potentially get him playing football again.
06:50It could.
06:52Or it could go very wrong.
06:54For what do you have to be sorry?
06:56Well, I asked for your advice on the surgery,
06:59and then I decided to do the opposite.
07:00Look, I just want you to know that I do value your opinion,
07:04and I hope you're not offended that I went a different way.
07:06Look, Kai, you asked what I thought.
07:08I was honest, and you were under no obligation to take my advice.
07:11Yeah, but you don't feel like mad or disrespected
07:14or like I wasted your time?
07:16Not even a little bit.
07:17In fact, Kai, man, I admire you.
07:21Really?
07:22Absolutely.
07:23You're thinking for yourself.
07:25You're pursuing your dreams.
07:27Man, I wish you nothing but the best.
07:30And I'm praying that it all works out.
07:32Are you registered to vote in Port Charles?
07:37No, but I'm registered in Bensonhurst.
07:39You need to rectify that immediately.
07:43Okay.
07:44Why?
07:44So you can vote for Laura Collins for mayor.
07:47I can do that.
07:48Great.
07:49And while you're at it, will you vote yes on measure C?
07:53What's measure C?
07:54That is the proposal to put the McConkie Esplanade on piers 55 and 56.
08:04Those are the piers that belong to my uncle Sonny.
08:07Yes, look.
08:08Gio, I know you and I are on opposite sides when it comes to your benefactor,
08:14but just do me a favor and read this website.
08:19You may think twice about supporting Sonny.
08:24I.D.
08:26Now.
08:28Of course.
08:51Yeah.
08:52I got a body here you guys might be interested in.
09:02You're not backing out on me.
09:04No, because we are having drinks with Jordan,
09:06and I've been looking forward to this all day.
09:09So have I.
09:10But what?
09:11But nothing.
09:12I'm not backing out.
09:13I'm just going to be a few minutes late.
09:15Why?
09:16What's happening?
09:16I have been waiting on authorization from an insurance company.
09:22I would wait till morning, but my patient can't move forward on a treatment until it's resolved.
09:28But the minute that it is, I will put on my party clothes and I will come to the subway.
09:34Because, you know, we don't get to put on our party clothes often.
09:38Not often enough.
09:39No.
09:39But the nurse's ball is on the horizon, my friend, and we are going to rock the red carpet in all our glory.
09:47Okay, we will.
09:48Yes, all right.
09:49Well, I'll text Jordan and let her know that we're running late.
09:52No, I'm running late.
09:53You should go on.
09:55No, okay.
09:55If the insurance company doesn't call you back in the next 15 minutes, then I will take off.
10:00Okay?
10:01It's all good.
10:02Sounds like a plan.
10:21I get that you're worried about Kai.
10:22And believe me, I would be too, but it sounds like he's got his mind made up about the surgery.
10:28Yeah, 100%.
10:30Okay, well, then as hard as it is, I think you just got to stay positive for him.
10:34I'm trying.
10:36He's really lucky to have you by his side, Trina.
10:39Of course.
10:40This was easy.
10:42I mean, you were so great at my protests with the quarter mains.
10:44Oh, that reminds me.
10:46I had a run-in with 88 Turner.
10:48She had a bunch of questions about why you were expelled from your last school.
10:51What did you tell her?
10:53Well, I didn't tell her anything because I don't know anything.
10:56I just thought that you should know.
10:59Will the Turner give you any idea on why she's so interested?
11:01I got a feeling that it's less about you and more about your grandmother.
11:08Okay.
11:09Miscopia Drake.
11:10Hey.
11:11Oh, I'm sorry.
11:12I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
11:13I just want to come over and say hello.
11:15And what brings you to my humble establishment?
11:20Those have always got way too much swagger to ever be called humble.
11:23I'm eating Anna and Felicia here for drinks, but Anna just texted and said they were running late.
11:28Well, you know I'd be happy to keep you company until they show up.
11:33That'd be great.
11:34I need to give you the heads up about something.
11:36Okay.
11:37So there has been a new development where Drew and I are concerned, and I wanted you
11:46to hear it from me.
11:51Drew Kane's entire medical history since he arrived in Port Charles.
11:55Took you long enough.
11:58We're talking about a decade's worth of records.
12:00I even included his Jake Doe files.
12:02So you basically did what I asked you to do.
12:04I don't know exactly what you're looking for, but I didn't find anything scandalous in there.
12:10It's fine.
12:10It's okay.
12:11I'm sure it'll still come in handy.
12:15Brad?
12:17I have another assignment for you.
12:25Oh, my God.
12:27Give me your voice down.
12:28Give me your voice down.
12:29Missy.
12:30Missy.
12:31Sunny.
12:32Sunny's fine.
12:35She?
12:37She's not fine.
12:40What the hell happened?
12:43We have a little situation.
12:48How long better?
12:50Yeah, we've had a couple of really nice heart-to-hearts recently.
12:53Well, you know, sometimes that's good, you know, to be open and honest.
12:59Oh, I mean, this is Emma that we're talking about here.
13:03I had to practically force the details out of her.
13:05But, you know, I did gain some valuable insight into both my granddaughter and her sudden transfer to PCU.
13:14No, so you know why she was expelled from the other school.
13:17No, so you know why she was expelled from the other school.
13:17The bottom line is she kind of got involved in something reckless that could have really resulted in a horrible outcome.
13:27But she said it was all in the name of protecting animal rights.
13:31Well, that's an important cause, and it's very admirable that she's so passionate about it.
13:36Yes, arguably too passionate.
13:39I mean, I don't think she looks before she leaps, and then suddenly she finds herself in over her head.
13:44But she may come by that honestly.
13:48I blame Robert.
13:50Oh, I would, especially since he's not here to argue with you exactly.
13:53But I must say, though, that after talking with her, I realized that she's still the granddaughter that I know and love.
14:04Given that her heart is in the right place, are you willing to cut her some slack?
14:10I'm going to keep a close eye on her, though, too.
14:13Really?
14:14Why?
14:15Well, I can do those two things at the same time.
14:18If you say so.
14:20Professor Dalton, this is Trina Robinson.
14:22She's also a student at PCU.
14:25Nice to meet you.
14:26But I haven't seen you in my environmental physics class, have I?
14:30No, you haven't.
14:31And you probably won't.
14:32It's not really my thing.
14:34Fair enough.
14:35It was nice to meet you regardless.
14:36You too.
14:37Can I have a word with you?
14:40Is that okay?
14:41Of course.
14:42I'll be right back.
14:44All right.
14:44Excuse me.
14:45So, um, how's the extra credit assignment going?
14:53Yeah, I've been working on the data model for weeks, so it's almost done.
14:56That's great.
14:56Yeah.
14:57Because, you know, it's optional for the rest of the class, but, you know, it's kind of a, you know, it's a prerequisite if you want to be considered for the research assignment position.
15:06Well, you have no idea how badly I want that position.
15:08I hope that you're going to be very impressed.
15:10I'm hoping I will be, too.
15:12This isn't good, Jax.
15:15The whole mission hinges on you securing the spot as Dalton's research assistant.
15:20You've got to get close enough to the guy to gain his trust.
15:23Yes, I understand that.
15:24But what you have to understand is I'm already trying to catch up to everybody else in class, and I know that there's three other students who already applied for the position.
15:34Is this your way of saying you can't do it?
15:37No.
15:37What I'm saying is I can't snap my fingers and become his assistant.
15:41Then you need to do something to stand out from the rest of the pack.
15:44So when the time comes for the professor to choose, you are the first and only student he considers.
15:52This is a total hit piece.
15:55It paints Uncle Sonny as some ruthless criminal mastermind.
15:58I happen to think that the PR firm that Ezra Boyle hired nailed it.
16:03You knew about this.
16:04Only after the fact, I started working with a committee whose goal is to divest Sonny of his waterfront properties.
16:12Why?
16:13Why do you want it gone so badly?
16:15Because without it, he can't do business.
16:17That's not right.
16:19I'm not talking about the coffee business.
16:21I should have gotten out of the business a long time ago.
16:26How many times did you tell me to walk away?
16:30Once or twice.
16:31We used to fight all the time, right?
16:33I should have listened to you, Dad.
16:34Why?
16:35Why?
16:35I hang out to dry when you're a kid, then I swoop back in.
16:39Years later, tell you how to lead your life?
16:41No, it doesn't work that way, son.
16:44Especially when I'm the reason that you're living that life.
16:48Nobody tells me what to do, Dad.
16:51My neglect is what put you on that path to begin with.
16:55I should have listened.
16:56But I was stubborn.
16:58You were young.
16:59You're my dad.
17:00You were right.
17:01I should have admitted that I was wrong.
17:05What's going on here, son?
17:07Why the change of heart?
17:09It's not just one thing, Dad.
17:11I've been thinking about getting out of the business for a while.
17:15It's been creeping up on me.
17:16Yeah, that big life stuff, it does tend to get pretty heavy over time.
17:24But what really drove it home is what happened to Michael.
17:29Yeah, I'm sorry about that.
17:31I wish I could have helped.
17:33It's not your job.
17:35It's just my fault.
17:37I know you want to beat yourself up with that son.
17:39Okay, Dad, listen.
17:41Someone came after me, and Michael paid for it.
17:47It's not the first time somebody that I love has been caught in the crossfire.
17:53Hell, Michael was caught a second time.
17:57But it's going to be the last time.
18:01I'm telling you right now, this has to be the last time.
18:07How the hell did you know what was going on in there?
18:10You're supposed to be on your way to Dubai.
18:11I was.
18:12But as I was leaving for the airport, I saw a drop of blood outside of supply closet.
18:16Here?
18:16At the hospital?
18:17Yes.
18:18I looked inside, and I saw a woman in there in her underwear.
18:21She was breathing, so I called the nurse, and I went straight for Sonny.
18:25But you found that woman in there?
18:28Yeah.
18:30Oh, my God.
18:32She would have killed him if you hadn't shown up, Rick.
18:35You saved Sonny's life.
18:41Why would you try to have Christina committed?
18:43I don't think anyone can deny how difficult this past year has been for Christina.
18:52Yes, but why now?
18:53These papers were drawn up just a few days ago.
18:55Even you have to admit, I have been doing better.
18:58Yes.
18:58Yes, you have.
18:59And I did notice that, the progress you made when we had our girls' night, and I changed my mind.
19:07Okay, but the fact that your mind even went to psych ward in the first place,
19:11and you were going to do all of that without even talking to me first?
19:14I mean, that's straight out of a horror film.
19:17It's completely unfair.
19:18And now, when I thought we were finally on stable ground,
19:22you do this behind my back because you left me no choice.
19:29I don't understand why you're going after Uncle Sonny like this.
19:33Gio, I have lived in Port Charles a lot longer than you,
19:37and I have seen the violence and crime he has brought to this city and to this family.
19:44He does so many good things for other people, and he's been nothing but great to me.
19:48I'm so glad, and I hope that that is always the case.
19:52Why wouldn't it be?
19:54Because, objectively speaking, Sonny is a dangerous man.
19:58And if he's in your life, you're exposed to that danger, and I don't want that for you.
20:04It would never happen.
20:06Yeah, sure. Well, I'm sure you believe that.
20:10What do you think is going to happen, Tracy?
20:15I don't know.
20:18But I know that Sonny takes advantage of people's trust in order to pull them into his world.
20:23Uncle Sonny and I come from the same place.
20:25No, you're not in the same place. You weren't then, and you're not now.
20:30Do you know what happens to the people that Sonny pulls into his world?
20:34What?
20:34They end up in prison, or in the ground.
20:38And it would devastate me if that happened to you.
20:45Unbelievable.
20:46Why? What's wrong?
20:47The insurance company is asking for more forms.
20:49Well, you should definitely go on to the Savoy, and I'll do my best to catch up.
20:55Are you sure?
20:56I'm positive.
20:58Okay.
20:59Have a cocktail for me?
21:00You can count on it.
21:01No, I'm fine.
21:03See you later.
21:04Okay.
21:05Love you.
21:05Love you.
21:07You know, Professor Dalton, I was very fascinated by today's lecture.
21:12Oh, really?
21:13Um, any part in particular, or?
21:17Uh, I'm so sorry, Professor, but I have to run.
21:21That's fine.
21:22Um, I'll see you in class.
21:24Uh, yeah, uh, I'll be there.
21:26Okay.
21:26Enjoy your night.
21:27All right.
21:27Thanks.
21:32Dalton's gonna be at the Savoy tonight.
21:34Go observe him and report back.
21:37What do you want to know?
21:38Who he talks to, what interests him, aside from physics, obviously.
21:43Okay.
21:45I can do that.
21:46Just be smooth about it.
21:48Okay, Jax?
21:49The last thing we need is for Dalton, or anyone else figuring out what you're up to.
21:54Please.
21:55Smooth is my middle name.
22:04I need you to get me ketamine.
22:06Good for you.
22:08I didn't know that's how you rolled, Chief.
22:10Easy.
22:11It's not for me.
22:13Is this for Congressman Cutthroat?
22:16Can you just please do what I'm asking you to do?
22:19If somebody finds me with ketamine, I could get fired.
22:23Well, then you better not let them.
22:25Because if you don't do what I'm asking you to do, you're definitely gonna get fired.
22:29Pardon my language, but this new arrangement of ours sucks.
22:34Well, then you better pucker up, Brad.
22:36In order to be an effective CO for Sidwell, I had to bury the hatchet with Drew.
22:50Since he and Sidwell both want Sonny out of poor Charles, right?
22:56So you're friends with Drew again?
22:58Yes, we're friends.
23:00Which means in the next few weeks, I'll likely be furthering Drew's agenda, which puts us on opposite sides.
23:10Your dad was so chill about me not taking his advice.
23:12I told you.
23:14Well, I'm lucky to have him in my corner, and I'm even luckier to have you.
23:17Well, we'll feel free to love it.
23:19I mean it, Trina.
23:20Look, I know you weren't all in at first about me having the surgery.
23:23I am all in with you achieving your dreams, and if this is what's going to make it happen, then I'm just going to work.
23:28It's going to work.
23:30Look, I know it.
23:31And even if it doesn't, at least I did everything I could to get back on the field.
23:37Wait, so you're blaming Christina now?
23:41Molly, your sister isn't doing as well as you think.
23:44Oh, I am standing right here.
23:48Why don't you tell me what you mean by that?
23:51You've had a very difficult year.
23:53You lost the baby, postpartum, Sam, and Michael.
23:57I mean, anyone could crack under that kind of string.
24:01Okay, but that's exactly the point.
24:03Christina hasn't cracked.
24:04She's still standing.
24:05I got the sense that you were covering for us, that you were saying all the right things, but not feeling them.
24:12And I thought, if you have to work that hard to put on a facade, you could break.
24:21I mean, that's what happened to me when I tried to cover for my alcohol addiction.
24:25Okay, but you never even asked me.
24:28You never even asked me if I needed help.
24:31I knew that you would refuse and push me away.
24:34Okay, and this is better?
24:35I thought, for you to be in a place where you could be honest and upfront about your feelings.
24:44But that's the problem.
24:45You thought, you decided, you, you didn't even think about me and what I, I thought I should do.
24:51I was trying to protect you.
24:53Right, because I can't take care of myself.
24:55That's not what I'm saying.
24:56Because I am such a danger to myself and to society.
25:00Right, Mom?
25:00Mom?
25:02Mom.
25:05I'm in a trap of my own making that I can't find my way out.
25:12That's going to keep my family safe.
25:14What are your options?
25:16If I disappear, then it's going to be just like Nixon Falls.
25:20My family's going to be in even more danger.
25:24And Jason, can he take over?
25:27It's out, too.
25:28I'm sorry, son.
25:31I wish I had an answer for you.
25:34But I have faith in you.
25:36I know you're going to find your way.
25:42You know what, Dad?
25:48If I step back, they're going to think I'm vulnerable.
25:51Well, if I show more strength, I'm going to just go in deeper.
26:00I need to find a solution.
26:01Otherwise, my family's never going to know what it's like to live in true peace.
26:08You're a continental sour, sir.
26:34I didn't know anyone ordered those anymore.
26:35Well, it's a classic.
26:39It used to be my favorite.
26:41Oh, really?
26:41Mm-hmm.
26:42Yeah.
26:43Well, in that case, um, excuse me, Barton.
26:46I have another one, please, for my friend.
26:49Sure, coming right up.
26:52Is that what we are?
26:54Friends?
26:57Um, well, here's hoping.
27:09Any other crimes you'd like me to commit?
27:12You know, you wouldn't be in this position if you hadn't blackmailed me to begin with.
27:16Lose the attitude.
27:24Nina, I have what we need.
27:27Of course, I have reservations.
27:33But Drew left us no choice.
27:36This thing you're not doing with Sidwell, I understand it puts you in a delicate position.
27:42And I admire you wanting to take Sidwell down.
27:46But Sidwell is a whole problem.
27:47I have no idea what you're talking about.
27:51But thanks.
27:53And if Drew and or Sid will try to do anything that will negatively impact you, I promise I'll try to let you know.
28:00Well, I appreciate that.
28:02Now, don't go jeopardizing yourself on my account.
28:05My main concern is that you stay safe.
28:11Jack?
28:12What are you doing here?
28:13Well, I heard about the attempt on Sonny's life.
28:15You called him for backup?
28:19I called the WSB's office in L.A.
28:22I don't understand.
28:24It just happened.
28:25Well, I was already on my way to the West Coast for a meeting.
28:27So when the call came in, I was the nearest agent.
28:30Thank you for your efforts.
28:31The Bureau will take it from here.
28:34You good?
28:35Yes, because of you.
28:37Thank you so much.
28:39I'm not doing anything for Sonny.
28:41And you.
28:42Take care.
28:43I...
28:44You know, if anyone knows that Sonny is in the hospital...
28:48No one will ever know that anything happened at all.
28:51Precisely why I'm here.
28:55I love that you're here.
28:57In the flesh.
29:00I'm relieved and grateful.
29:02Well, you know, I feel the same way as Brick.
29:06Anything for you.
29:10Listen, I let you save yourself your whole life.
29:14Even when you were furious at me, you saved me.
29:18And when you were done in Avery's age, I dropped out of your life.
29:27And you had that chance.
29:28And you didn't.
29:30You know, I've surrendered to the choices that I've made in my life.
29:37But you, you not only live yours, you, you, you triumph over them.
29:41And that's why I have known in my heart that you're gonna find a way to protect your family.
29:48It's our family, Dad.
29:50Yeah.
29:52And it's a beautiful family.
29:55Hi, baby girl.
30:03I'm sorry I haven't been to see you in a minute now.
30:12I've been thinking about you and missing you every day.
30:20Man, Adela, your mama really messed up this time.
30:25I did something really bad.
30:28I, um, I tried to kill Ava.
30:35And in doing so, I hurt Rick and Elizabeth.
30:39Elizabeth, the kindest soul that ever...
30:43And Rick.
30:45Holly will never forgive me for this if she finds out.
30:48And she...
30:49We're finally in a good place and we remember what it's like to really be sisters again.
30:55And I, I don't want to lose that.
31:00My mom has, um...
31:03She's misinterpreted the guilt that I've been feeling over everything that happened.
31:11She thinks that I've just lost it.
31:17I don't know.
31:19Maybe I have.
31:21Maybe I have.
31:22What you are doing to Christina is reprehensible.
31:27Making her doubt herself just to justify your own actions?
31:30I thought she needed help.
31:32But she doesn't need to be committed.
31:34When Dad was in that accident, Christina was a rock for me.
31:37And she has been ever since.
31:39So I, I don't buy it, Mom.
31:41Christina's not putting on an act or, or falling apart inside.
31:45You are doing what you have done to her her entire life.
31:49In order to, to protect her, you inevitably undercut her.
31:54And it doesn't help.
31:55In fact, it does the opposite.
31:58I made a mistake.
32:00And I know that because I didn't file the papers.
32:03The only thing that matters is that you ever had them drawn up in the first place.
32:08Come in.
32:22Everything okay?
32:24Sure, everything's fine.
32:26It's late, Suzanne.
32:27You should go home.
32:28Before I do, this was just delivered for you.
32:32Have a good night.
32:33Good night, Miss Davis.
32:34Despite the intriguing history, it didn't feel right keeping your family heirloom.
32:58It's better in your hands.
32:59God, I might find you here.
33:15Hi.
33:17I'm sorry, Christina.
33:20Thank you for having my back with Mom.
33:24Would you think I wouldn't?
33:26I don't know what to think anymore.
33:29Look, here's the thing.
33:40You and I are all that's left.
33:44And we might need to work on some things.
33:49But you're my sister.
33:51My only sister.
33:53We don't have Sam.
33:56We don't have our baby girl.
33:57Well, we have each other.
34:05Do you know how important that makes you to me?
34:10I really do.
34:11It's me and you forever, Christina.
34:22Me and you forever.
34:25It's a new job.
34:26It suits you.
34:27It's almost like old times.
34:30Just be careful, okay?
34:32I promise.
34:33There is one thing I didn't tell you about the surgery.
34:39Oh, God.
34:39No, no, no.
34:40It's just Drew is having the whole thing documented.
34:43He hired a camera crew and everything.
34:46And how do you feel about that?
34:48I mean, a little weird, to be honest.
34:51But I felt like I had to say yes.
34:53Okay.
34:54Yeah.
34:55I get it.
34:56It's a small price to pay, though, right?
34:58Considering?
35:00Is everything going your way tomorrow?
35:03I'll definitely toast to that.
35:04I'm Henry Dalton.
35:09I'm Hank.
35:10All right.
35:11Anna Devane.
35:12Yeah?
35:13You know, judging from your accent, I'd say you're not from around here.
35:17Good.
35:18No, I'm not.
35:19I mean, I've lived in Port Charles a long time.
35:22Okay.
35:23What about you?
35:25I moved here in January.
35:28I took a teaching gig at PCU.
35:31Oh.
35:31Yeah.
35:32My granddaughter goes there.
35:33Oh, really?
35:34Yeah.
35:34Yeah, it's a terrific school.
35:35It's, you know, it's a bit of a change from the one I taught in the Bay Area, though.
35:40I just moved here from California.
35:44No kidding.
35:45No.
35:52Hi, Emma.
35:53What brings you here?
35:55I asked her to come.
35:56Emma earned her respect when she stopped the family crypt from being demolished, yes?
36:00You know she did.
36:01I owe her a debt of gratitude.
36:02And I'm hoping she'll be able to talk you out of your plans.
36:06Go ahead.
36:07Tell Emma here what you're planning to do to Uncle Sonny.
36:10So I'm curious, was this West Coast meeting planned before or after you knew I was coming to L.A.?
36:18Uh, both.
36:20It was something I was putting off, and when I found out you were going to be here, I pulled the trigger.
36:25I was hoping to take you out to dinner.
36:27Well, that's really sweet, Jack.
36:32It may have been an excuse to check up on you, too.
36:35And on the off chance something happened with Sonny's surgery, I, well, I didn't want you to be alone.
36:42Has anyone ever told you you're extremely thoughtful?
36:45Not as often as you'd think.
36:48Well, that's unacceptable.
36:50But, you know, sometimes words aren't enough.
36:53And sometimes actions really matter most.
36:59Speaking of family, you should be getting back to yours.
37:03Really?
37:03I thought we had a lot more catching up to do, Dad.
37:06Oh, no, no.
37:07We'll have time for that, you know.
37:09Until then, just know that I'm always with you.
37:17I love you, Dad.
37:22And I promise you that I'm going to try to be the man that you see when you look at me.
37:31You already are, son.
37:33And you always have been.
37:57Thank you, Dad.
38:02Look at that.
38:03You're awake.
38:07Thank God.
38:10How are you feeling?
38:13Still a little angry, but, uh...
38:17Everything, everything okay.
38:21Everything's okay.
38:23You missed a lot.
38:24I'm an ex-general hospital.
38:31Probably better if you just forget what you heard.
38:34Is there anything I can do to improve my chances?
38:38Make it happen, or I go to Curtis with everything I know.
38:41It's not whether I can handle Sidwell.
38:43It's whether Sidwell can handle me.
38:46The Creo
