Sonny finds out that Kristina has been having romantic relations with a woman who has been her professor. He assures his daughter he loves and supports her decisions, only wants what is best for her and is ok with her having gay relations. Yet he admits he is concerned about what could be a professor taking advantage of his daughter for that. She is now confident that it's ok to "come out" and have no doubts about her future with Parker. Little does she know, however, that her mom has run into Parker and lectured her on how this is not going to work and has convinced Parker to do the "right thing" and break it off with Kristina. At that point, unknown to Kristina, Parker writes her a letter telling her she has to end their relationship. At the house on Cassadine Island in Greece, the hostages are able to overpower Valentin and his men. They all realize there's nothing they can do for Nikolas yet they have to return to Spencer since they are all he has at this point. Little do they realize, however, the secrets that Spencer is keeping. Julian is ready to be discharged out of the hospital and be escorted by the DA to his arraignment hearing. Paul Hornsby is confident that he can put Julian away and Alexis is ready to testify against her estranged husband regardless of the hardship for her with that. Yet Julian is determined not to give up his fight and has his "employee" come to visit him, dressed in hospital scrubs with the drug he needs in order to appear "sick" so they won't let him out of the hospital as expected. However, while they are talking in Julian's hospital room, Nina comes by to get him to sign over authorization of Crimson to her. And, in the process, she "accidentally" knocks into the guy who's about to give Julian the last dose he has of the drug needed to keep him in the hospital and out of prison. Nina wants to help Carly find out just who donated their kidney to Josslyn until Josslyn informs her mom she wants her to call off the search because it's a violation of her privacy. Carly assures her daughter she will do that although she reveals to Sonny she is not giving up regardless of what Josslyn wants. Nina announces to Sonny and to Carly that she witnessed, first hand, as the DA took Julian out of the hospital in handcuffs and they are all confident he will be brought to justice. Or will he?
Carly: Olivia, great job on negotiating that new linen contract. Yeah. [Giggles] Nina: Forget linens. I have something special for you. Carly: I got to go. Okay. What is this? Nina: These are printouts from Crimson's website. Responses to Josslyn's story. From people all over the country, all over the world. Carly: Oh, my God. Nina, this is great. Nina: I know. You're gonna get what you want. You're gonna get your question answered. You're gonna find Josslyn's donor. I know it. [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: Why don't you just come out and ask me if I'm gay? Sonny: You just told me. You don't know what you are. That you don't know what any of this means. Kristina: Yeah, but if I am, that means that you have a gay daughter. Can you accept that? Can you deal with that? Can you -- can you accept me? Sonny: It's a -- a lot of information right now for me to take in. [Cell phone rings] Sonny: Can you shut off the phone so we can talk? Kristina: Yeah, okay. Sorry, Mom. It'll have to wait. [SCENE_BREAK] Alexis: Kristina, this is your mother, and you're not at work. You didn't come home last night, and you didn't call me. And I know that you're an adult, and I know that you can live your own life, but as long as you're living under my roof, you're gonna have to call me and tell me you're all right, okay? So call me and tell me you're all right. [Sighs] Paul: Alexis. How are you doing? Alexis: [Laughs] Well, that's a loaded question. Are you getting ready for the arraignment? Paul: Well, it's pretty standard. I assume you'll be in attendance. Alexis: Oh, I will be in the front seat, watching while Julian is remanded without bail. [SCENE_BREAK] Julian: They got to you, Alexis. All the haters. Everybody who was trying to drive us apart. Even your own daughters. I'm telling you right now. I'm not giving up. And I'm not going to that arraignment. I'm leaving. And I'm taking my wife with me. [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: Hey. Sam: Hey. Jason: You're okay. Sam: Oh, I fell asleep. What is wrong with me? Jason: [Chuckles] Well, we're, uh -- We're locked up. We've got nothing to do. Might as well sleep. Sam: [Sighs] Have you? Jason: Yeah. Yeah, a little. Sam: When? Jason: When you were sleeping. Sam: You never used to lie, you know. Guard: Keep still or I'll shoot you. Sam: Can I get some water? Water. Guard: Go ahead. Sam: Thank you. [Sighs] [Exhales] God. Jason: What's wrong? Sam: Jason. Jason: Hey! Sam! Sam! Dude, get up! Help her right now! Sam! [SCENE_BREAK] Valentin: See, I would just as soon let all of you go. I'd like to say I believe all of you will keep your mouth shut. I'd like to say that, but that's not very likely, is it? So who wants to be the first to die? Lulu: I vote for you. Valentin: Well, I was wondering when you were gonna show up. Lulu: Well, now you know. Drop your gun. Order the guards to do the same, or I will blow a nice big hole in your chest. [SCENE_BREAK] Holt: Time for your sponge bath, Mr. Jerome. Julian: Hilarious. Throw these in the trash for me. Holt: Yes, sir. Julian: And please tell me you found Ava. Holt: I'm sorry, boss. No one seems to know where she is. Julian: [Sighs] Damn it. I mean, I really need her help to get the hell out of town. Holt: Well, we got to get you out of here first. Your arraignment's this afternoon. Julian: Yeah. Then I need to stall. Do you have any more of that drug? Holt: No. But I can get some. Julian: Do it. I need to get sick. Now. [SCENE_BREAK] Alexis: You do realize Julian's going to claim entrapment. Paul: Probably. But this isn't an appropriate conversation for you and I to be having. And I think you should be concentrating on your own situation. Specifically, the American Bar Association. Alexis: What have you heard? Paul: Well, a friend on the Ethics Committee gave me the heads up. You're going to be charged with violations related to your conduct as Carlos Rivera's defense attorney. Refusing to take the deal for Carlos to testify against Julian appears suspect. It's as if you weren't acting in your client's best interests. Alexis: [Sighs] Part of me knew this was gonna happen, and the other part of me was hoping that it wouldn't. Paul: Do yourself a favor, Alexis. Call Diane. Figure out a defense strategy. You're looking at disbarment. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Why don't you go ahead and walk me through this? You met this woman, right? Kristina: Her name is Parker. Sonny: Parker. And now what? You're -- You like women? Kristina: Honestly, I don't know, Dad. It's all new to me. Sonny: I just didn't think it worked that way, sweetheart. 'Cause I knew guys, and they always knew when they were a kid. Kristina: Gay guys, like Brad and Lucas? Sonny: Not just like Brad and Lucas. I grew up in Brooklyn. I went to clubs with Lois, with Connie, and I knew guys, and they were gay, and I've known them for a long time. Kristina: I didn't know that. Sonny: Well, there's a lot that you don't know about me... ...and I guess there's a lot I don't know about you. [SCENE_BREAK] Nina: Oh, wow. Listen to this one. "I lost my young son around the time of your daughter's illness. Oliver passed away at Mercy Hospital after sustaining a cerebral hemorrhage from a fall. Ollie was 11." Carly: Wow, that's -- That's younger than Josslyn is right now. Nina: "The process was closed, so we don't know where Oliver's organs went or who he helped. But we hope it was your daughter. It would be a blessing to know Ollie's still out there, somewhere on this earth, helping another child. His blood type was O-Negative. If you contact us, we'll help however we may. God bless you and your daughter." Wow. Could it be Ollie? Carly: No, the blood type doesn't match. Nina: I hate to just throw this in the "No" pile. Carly: So, don't. You know? Let's keep it. I'd like to contact Oliver's parents. You know, even though Ollie wasn't Josslyn's donor, I'd love to tell them how grateful I am. [SCENE_BREAK] Lulu: Maybe you think I can't make the shot. Or that I just won't pull the trigger, but you would be wrong. Valentin: Oh, I have no doubt you'll pull the trigger. But then so will I. You think you can kill me before I kill your mom? You'd be betting her life on it. [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: Sam, answer me! Answer me! Help her. Something's wrong! Help her! Listen to me. Hey. You might not speak English, but understand this -- If something happens to her, I will kill you. Do you understand? Help her! [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: You know, we can pretty much rule out potential matches by age, blood type, and the situation surrounding the organ donation. But after that, we're gonna need a DNA test. Wow. This is a huge undertaking. Nina: If this gets to be too much for you, you can have somebody else step in. Carly: You mean, um, someone like you? Nina: Someone like me. Carly: See, I don't understand you, Nina. Because outside of both of us making the big mistake of dating Franco, we don't know each other very well. Why are you going out of your way to help me? Nina: Oh, well, this is really good for business. It's driving a lot of traffic to the Crimson website. I mean, there's been so many responses. Look at this. And it helps our social media platform. There's a lot of views and a lot of shares. And, um, so it's really good for business. Carly: So, that's it? That's just the bottom line? Nina: That's the bottom line. My chance of being a mother... [Sighs] ...came and went when I was asleep. So, this makes me feel good, helping you and Josslyn and the people on the other side of the equation. It makes me feel... motherly. So, um, call it self-serving, call it maybe trying to make a friend. Just call it whatever you want. Doesn't matter to me. Carly: How about I call it doing the right thing? [SCENE_BREAK] [Door opens] Paul: Julian. You're looking well. Julian: [Clears throat] Really? Well, that's good. [Coughs] 'Cause I really don't feel that way. Paul: It's just nerves. They'll pass a lot faster if you just plead guilty. Julian: [Chuckles] Paul: You can save the taxpayers the expense of a trial. Julian: [Exhales sharply] Well, that's okay. I look forward to proving my innocence. Paul: Well, have it your way. I'm here to personally oversee your release and escort you to the courthouse. We'll be arriving via the front steps. It's going to be a dazzling perp walk for you. [Both laughs] Paul: See, I've also arranged for the entire event to be memorialized by a mob of photographers. No pun intended. Julian: Well, I certainly hope that you enjoy the moment, because the next show you put on for the press will be to apologize for subjecting me to this baseless witch-hunt. Paul: You know, if it makes you feel any better, Julian, you're just the warm- up. The preliminary round. See, the real victory comes when I take down your rival. Sonny Corinthos is the main event. [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: Um, before I met Parker, I'd never felt this way about a woman before. Sonny: Mm-hmm. Kristina: I was struggling my last semester at Wesleyan... Sonny: Mm-hmm. Kristina: ...After a bad break-up. Another bad break-up. And Parker was amazing... intelligent, and unexpected. She asked interesting questions, and she didn't accept lazy answers. You know, the first couple of weeks, I just thought I was into the class, and then I realized that I was into Parker. How she talked... how she looked... and especially how she looked at me. I felt this attraction, and I was sure that she felt it, too. Sonny: Until you offered to sleep with her, and she turned you in to administration. Kristina: I was the one who broke the rules. I mean, she was just following them. Sonny: So you don't hold that against her at all, Kristina? Kristina: Just the opposite. The more that I get to know Parker, the better I understand myself. I mean, this is all new to me, but at least I can talk about it. Sonny: Except with me. Kristina: We're talking about it now. Sonny: That's because I saw you kissing her! But if I hadn't seen you kiss her, be honest with me. Would you have told me the truth? [SCENE_BREAK] Alexis: The ABA is coming after me. They're gonna haul me in front of the Ethics Committee. No. [Sighs] You have to come up with a strategy. I have Julian's arraignment today. He's being arraigned, and I need to be there. You -- Can you just e-mail me? E-mail precedents that you're looking at regarding ethics violations. I have to call you back. [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: Sam. Talk to me. Sam: Mm. Jason: Hey, there. Hi. [Sighs] Sam: Jason, what happened? Jason: Hey. Well, you fainted. Sam: God, I never faint. Jason: Easy, easy, easy. There's a first time for everything. Here. Drink this. Slow sips. Sam: Thank you. Jason: Okay. Sam: Wait, how did you get loose? Where are the cuffs? Jason: Uh, they're over there. Sam: What happened? Jason: Well, it's an old chair. I broke it. Hoping they can forgive me. [Chuckles] Sam: Well... Jason: Can you stand? Sam: Mm-hmm. Jason: Ooh. Take it easy. Sam: When you said to move when the guards were distracted, I didn't think you meant that. Jason: Yeah, well, it worked. Hey. You okay? Sam: Mm-hmm. Jason: You sure? You okay? Sam: Yeah, I'm gonna be fine. Jason: Yeah? Sam: I think I was just a little dehydrated. You should drink some, actually, since you're gonna be going after the others. I think you -- Jason: Okay. I want you to stay here. Sam: No way. Jason: Sam, do me a favor. Just -- Sam: Jason, no. Jason: Just stay here. Sam: No. I told you already. We're in this together. Jason: You know, you are the most stubborn person I have ever met in my life. [SCENE_BREAK] Valentin: Make the choice. Lower the gun or watch Mommy die. Take it from her. Dante: Hey, you back the hell off. Valentin: Hey. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Recap. Gun. Laura. Point blank. She can die for you just as easy as she can for her daughter. Lulu: I'm okay. I'm fine. Valentin: Put her back with him. Hold hands. That way you can go together. See? I'm merciful. [SCENE_BREAK] Paul: I've got you dead to rights, Julian. Your own words are gonna send you away to prison. Julian: Hm. Well, my lawyer's gonna file a motion to suppress said recording, since it was illegally obtained. Paul: Well, you can file all the motions you want. You're a criminal, a murderer. And you are going to answer for your crimes. [Door opens] Holt: Ah, excuse me. I need to check the patient's vitals one last time. Paul: I'll go make sure the paperwork is in order. Then it will be time to face justice, Julian. Julian: Right. Holt: [Sighs] [Sighs] So? Did you get it? [SCENE_BREAK] Parker: Alexis, it's good to see you again. Alexis: I wish I could say the same thing to you, Parker. Why are you here? Parker: Um, well, there's an academic conference at PCU. Alexis: At my daughter's workplace? Parker: I had no idea that Kristina worked here. I just wanted a cup of coffee. Alexis: So, it was just a coincidence. Parker: Absolutely. Alexis, what is this hostility I'm sensing? Last time we saw each other, I thought we reached a little bit of common ground. Alexis: We did. You said that you were going to stay away from Kristina. Yet here you are here, in Port Charles, at my daughter's workplace, and my beautiful, fragile daughter didn't come home last night, nor did she call. So I can only assume that she got worked up over you being here and is in some sort of trouble. Parker: Alexis, your daughter's fine. I promise you. Alexis: And how do you know that, Parker? Were you with her? Parker: Kristina and I spent the night together. [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: Mom told me I should have been honest with you from the beginning. Sonny: Alexis knows? Kristina: I told her months ago. Sonny: Why didn't she tell me? Kristina: Don't be mad at Mom. Sonny: Not me. Kristina: She's the one that kept telling me to be honest with you, and that open and honest communication would lead to a better relationship. Sonny: But you didn't see it that way, honey. Kristina: I didn't think that you'd understand. Sonny: Okay. Kristina: You're Sonny Corinthos, Dad. You're the real deal. Sonny: Mm-hmm. Kristina: And I'm just your seriously messed-up kid. I can't manage a relationship, I got suspended from school, and between that and... my constant questioning of who I am, I was scared. Sonny: What are you afraid of, Kristina? That I wasn't gonna love you anymore? That I was gonna turn my back on you? Kristina: Yeah. [Sighs] Yeah. [SCENE_BREAK] Nina: Okay. I would love to stay, but I have to untie some bureaucratic knots at Crimson before our publisher goes into the slammer. Carly: Oh, my God. It must be great to have Julian behind bars, where he can't mess with your magazine. Nina: Yeah. I'll be honest with you. I'm not gonna miss Julian. Anyway, I'll help you with all of this, assuming you still want my help. Carly: Oh, yes. Yeah. And I just haven't thanked you today. I want to say thank you for helping me try and find Josslyn's donor. I appreciate it. Nina: You're welcome. You're welcome. Hey, Josslyn. How are you? Josslyn: I'm fine. Carly: Hey. I thought you had a student council meeting. Josslyn: I did. Carly: Oh! Josslyn: Short meeting. Carly: Oh. Nina: Well, it's good to see you. I just want to tell you, you've been an inspiration to my readers and an inspiration to me. So, have a good day. Carly: Thank you. I'm gonna get you a fruit salad. That'll help you before dinner, right? Josslyn: What are those? Carly: Oh, those are responses to the story about your transplant, and Nina was just helping me, you know, go through them. Josslyn: Look, I get that Nina means well. And I know that you do, too. But I want you to stop the search for my donor. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: I don't think you actually want to kill anybody. Valentin: No, it's true. I don't. But it's a necessary evil, like eliminating inconvenient witnesses. Nobody wants to do that. But we're compelled by necessity. It's a question of survival. Start with him. Lulu: No! No, don't take him! [Gunshot in distance] Lulu: Aah! [Gunshot] Valentin: [Grunting] Jason: Sam, gun. Ava: You crazy bastard! You could have shot any one of us. Jason: Dante, you okay? Dante: I'm fine. Sam: Shut up, Ava. He was just protecting us. Jason: Okay, you watch the guards. Sam, help Dante. I'm going after Valentin. I'll be back. Dante: Let's start with the guards. Ava, find something to tie these guys up with. [SCENE_BREAK] Julian: What are you waiting for? Let's go. Give me the drug. Holt: I'm just making sure the coast is clear. Yeah. I was only able to get one dose. So make it count. Nina: Julian. [Door closes] Julian: [Sighs] Nina: Glad I got you before they hauled you off to prison. Julian: Hm. I assume you're here to gloat? Nina: You assume wrong. I'd like you to sign this document. It gives me full autonomy over Crimson in exchange for my silence over certain acts of corporate sabotage. Julian: Okay. Nina. [Sighs] Haven't I stayed out of your way? Nina: Yes, you have. You have. But who's to say that Legal won't come in and take the reigns, especially if you're convicted. I have to protect my magazine. Julian: [Scoffs] I'm not gonna get convicted. Nina: [Whispering] We can't be too sure of that. I'd hate to have to apply leverage. Julian: Fine. Let met just sign this for you. Nina: [Normally] Thank you. Julian: [Sighs] Nina: There. Great. Julian: Here you go. Now get out of here. Nina: Appreciate it. Julian: Yeah. I bet you do. Nina: Oh. Wait a second. You missed a spot. Oh! [Gasps] [Vial clatters] Nina: Oh, wow. That's all over the floor. Good thing we're at a hospital. You can get more meds. [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: You're my dad, and I love you so much, but you can sometimes be a little intimidating. Sonny: You know what? Everybody says that. But this isn't about me right now. It's about you and us together, trying to make it right. Kristina: Well, is this us, you know, talking helping a little? Sonny: Well, it's better than not talking. Sweetheart, you can tell me anything you want. I may not understand all the time -- Kristina: Well, that makes two of us. Sonny: But we're gonna work together to figure it out. Kristina: [Sighs] Where do you want to start? Sonny: Well, how about Aaron? You know, I was under the impression that you guys were more than friends. Kristina: We are. Sonny: But then you met Parker and, what? Are you still gonna see Aaron? Kristina: I don't know, Dad. I mean, Aaron is a good guy. I mean, he's thoughtful, he's sweet, and he's really good-looking. I like him. Sonny: Right. But not the same way you like this Parker woman. Kristina: What Aaron and I have is on the surface. I connect with Parker on another level. We have this deep connection that I've never felt. I can't ignore it. Sonny: See, that worries me. I'll tell you why. Because this Parker woman, she's your professor, or was your professor, mentor. And that puts you at a disadvantage emotionally. Kristina: Dad, no. Sonny: Stop. Let me -- Just let me talk. You want to go out with women? That's fine. But this Parker -- She's not right for you. [SCENE_BREAK] Parker: I won't speak for your daughter. Alexis: Then speak for yourself. You obviously took advantage of my daughter, so the least you can do is account for it. Parker: I did not take advantage of Kristina. She sought me out. She wanted closure, and we talked. So it led to something else, but it was completely innocent. Alexis: Oh, I hardly think it's innocent for an adult, who is in a position of power, to seduce a younger, confused, questioning girl. Parker: [Laughs] I didn't seduce Kristina. We're both adults. We were both willing participants, Alexis. Look, I understand that she hasn't come to terms with her identity. But she can't achieve that without exploration. That's what happened last night. Alexis: Well, that is very generous of you to take time away from your marriage to be my daughter's guide. Parker: Well, my marriage is over. I'm getting a divorce. Alexis: Well, see, that doesn't really help me at all because now I don't know if you're rebounding or if you've convinced yourself that you actually care about Kristina. Parker: I care very much about Kristina. Alexis: I care very much about my interns, but I don't sleep with them. Parker: [Scoffs] Alexis: Let me ask you something. If Kristina weren't in the picture, would you be able to move on? Or do you see a future for you and Kristina? Because I will tell you that my daughter can see a future with you, Parker. So I think it's time you put an end to that fantasy. [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: Joss. Hey. What's going on? Josslyn: I told you. I want you to stop searching for my donor. Carly: It's important to have a complete medical record for you. Josslyn: More important than my privacy? You never even asked me if I was okay with you publishing my life story on the internet. Carly: Okay. I'm sorry. I really am. I didn't know this would be a problem. Josslyn: Well, it is. And it gets worse every day. I already have this scar. Now everybody knows how I got it. Carly: You had cancer. Okay? And that transplant -- it saved your life. Josslyn: I know. And I'm grateful. I just don't see why this has to be public knowledge. God, I hate it when other kids point at me and talk about me behind my back. Carly: Oh, baby. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry that people can be so stupid and ignorant. I am. Josslyn: Well, I've got to go to school with them, not you. I just want this to go back to the way it used to be when I was normal. Carly: Okay. All right. But you know what? If something happens again, we have to have the medical information, honey. Josslyn: The doctors all told us the longer I go without a reoccurrence, the less likely I am to get sick again. Carly: Okay, but you know what? That's not good enough for me. Josslyn: Well, it's good enough for Dad. He understands. And if you don't listen, the next time I go to visit him, I'm staying. I'll never come home again. [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: It's over. Open the door, man! It's over. Open the door. Valentin: You should have run when you had the chance! Jason: Valentin, open the damn door. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: Guards are locked up. Won't be a problem. Kevin, how you doing? Kevin: Never better. Lulu: Thank God you're okay. I was so scared when Valentin told that guard to take you away. Dante: You were scared? You walked in here with a gun and you hold it to Valentin. He could have shot you. Lulu: Well, I should have shot him first. Dante: Look. Where did you get the gun? Lulu: I was able to knock out a guard down in the access tunnels. Dante: There's more guards? Lulu: At least one. He could be awake right now for all I know, and -- Dante: And what? Lulu: [Gasps] What the hell? [Screams] It's just -- I'll tell you later. Okay, we have to get out of here. Sam: Hey. What happened? Laura: This brave man saved my life. Sam: [Sighs] Valentin? Laura: Yeah. He was gonna shoot me. Kevin: But I got in the way. Ava: I hate to break up this reunion, but we have to get the hell out of here. Sam: We have to wait for Jason to come back. Ava: Sam, we're dealing with a madman here. This could be our only chance to escape. Sam: No, Ava. We wait. Lulu: Jason saved our lives. Dante: Yeah, we're not leaving without him. Ava: Okay. All right, fine. We wait. I just don't want to give that maniac the chance to do to us what he did to Kevin and Nikolas. [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: I'm sorry you're upset, Josslyn. I really am. You know, I'm your mom. And I have to do everything in my power to safeguard your health. Josslyn: Dad doesn't agree. We talked, and he understands how I feel. He's on my side. Carly: There are no sides in this, Josslyn! Josslyn: Yes, there are! Me and Dad and my right to privacy versus you and your big public quest for information. Carly: Okay, knock it off. I almost lost you once. I'm not going to lose you again. Not if I can help it. Josslyn: Did you ever just stop once and think about how this would affect me? Carly: Yes. I did. I really did. But you know what? I'm the adult in this situation. And I have to make certain decisions, ones that you may not like. But that's the job of a parent. And one day, I hope you'll understand. Josslyn: But what about right now? Seriously, Mom. This isn't fair. You're so afraid you're going to lose me that you're hurting me. [SCENE_BREAK] Julian: [Sighs] Here? Nina: Mm-hmm. Julian: Okay, Nina. Now you can go for good. Nina: Wow, so rude. Julian: [Sighs] Nina: Don't expect me to visit you at Pentonville. Sorry I made you spill. Oh, my. [Door opens] Julian: Okay. You need to get me some more of that drug right now. Holt: Boss, I -- I don't know where they keep this stuff at. You know how hard it was -- Julian: Well, find it or we're gonna be in big trouble. Holt: I searched all over the place for this stuff. There's no way I'm gonna be able to get another -- Paul: Good news, Julian. You've been cleared to leave the hospital. Your arraignment awaits. [SCENE_BREAK] [Cell phone rings] Carly: Nina Reeves. It's Carly. Can you please call off the search? I need you to remove the article from the Crimson website. Just for the time being, okay? Nina: Why? Carly: I can't get into it right now, but could you just do it? [SCENE_BREAK] Parker: You want me to break it off with Kristina just like that? Alexis: I want you to do the right thing, Parker. It'll save you both a lot of hurt down the road. Parker: You have no idea what's next for me and Kristina. Alexis: Well, maybe I do. Have you thought about what your dean will think when he finds out that you've shacked up with the student you had suspended for trying to beguile you for a better grade? And what about your wife? Have you thought for a moment about what you stand to lose in all of this? You say you care about Kristina. Parker: Because I do. Alexis: Then walk away. Parker: I -- I don't want to hurt her. Alexis: You should have thought about that before you gave in to her last night. Parker. You set this in motion. You need to end it. And then I need to help my daughter pick up the pieces. [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: Dad, you don't even know Parker. Sonny: Uh, yeah, well, I know she's your professor. Kristina: Was. Sonny: Mm. Kristina: Parker's not going to hurt me, Dad, I promise. Sonny: You don't have to worry. I always worry about you, because you're my little girl. Kristina: I wasn't sure that you'd still want me around. Sonny: I would never give up on you. Ever. You understand me? Kristina: Then how come you couldn't answer my question, if you could accept a gay daughter? Sonny: Ask me again. Kristina: [Sighs] Could you accept a gay daughter? Sonny: You are my daughter. No question. No matter what. [Chuckles] Kristina: [Giggles] Sonny: Come here. [SCENE_BREAK] Josslyn: Thank you, Mom. I know that wasn't easy for you. Carly: No, I'm sorry that it got this far, and I'm so sorry that you thought I was hurting you. Josslyn: Well, you can make it up to me with ice cream. Carly: [Laughs] Okay. You can have any flavor you want. Go. Go to the kitchen and tell them. Sonny: [Sighs] Josslyn: Uncle Sonny. Do you want any ice cream? Mom's buying. Sonny: [Laughs] No. She's so cute. Carly: Hi. Sonny: Hey, what's going on? Carly: What's going on with you? Hey. Nina. I didn't expect you back so soon. Nina: Um... uh, my business with Julian was concluded. Speaking of Julian, I passed the DA on my way out. He was there to slap the cuffs on Julian himself and roll him right out the door. Sonny: Well, that's good news. Carly: Yes. Nina: I thought we'd have more good news. Carly and I were zeroing in on finding Josslyn's donor, and then you called off the search. Sonny: What? Carly: Well -- No, I didn't call off the search. It's just, well -- Josslyn feels like her privacy is being violated, because of the story, so I just asked Nina to remove the story off of the Crimson website while we... discreetly continue the search. Nina: Oh. Okay. Sonny: But do you think that's a good idea as far as Josslyn's concerned? Carly: Okay, Josslyn doesn't know what's best for her. I'm her mother, I do. And when we find the donor, hopefully by then, she'll come around. [SCENE_BREAK] Josslyn: Dad. Hey. I wanted to let you know that I talked to Mom, and guess what? You were wrong. No, Mom gets why I'm upset about the search, and she promised to drop it. Thanks again for offering to talk to Mom. But I handled it. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: [Groans] Carly: Wow. [Laughs] What's going on? Why are you so blue? Sonny: [Sighs] [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: I totally forgot to call you back. I'm so sorry, Mom. I -- I got busy and -- Alexis: It's okay. Kristina: Things happened. Alexis: It's all right. I just -- You didn't come home last night, and I was worried. Kristina: I should have called or texted you. Alexis: I know you were with Parker. Kristina: What? Did Dad tell you? Alexis: Your father? He knows? Kristina: Dad saw me with Parker. Alexis: How did it go with your father? Kristina: Better than I thought it would. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: I talked to Kristina. Carly: Okay. She came out to me. [SCENE_BREAK] Kristina: I'm really glad that I told Dad the truth. It's a lot for him to process, but he still loves me, so. Alexis: Of course, he does! Kristina: There's just one thing that I don't understand. How did you know that I was with Parker if Dad didn't tell you? Alexis: Because I ran into Parker here. Kristina: Before you say anything, Dad already did, so... I love you guys for being concerned, but this is my life. Alexis: I know that. It's just that I'm very -- Kristina: Parker makes me happy, Mom. And I make her happy. And we don't know what's going to happen next, but we're gonna figure it out together. [SCENE_BREAK] Parker: Dear Kristina, I'm sorry. I can't. [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: Valentin is gone. Ava: Gone? How could you let him get away? Jason: He barricaded himself behind a door. By the time I was able to break in, he was gone. Look, we're getting out of here. Can you walk? Kevin: Yeah, with a little help. Jason: Then you're gonna get the help. Laura: Okay, look, you guys need to keep this on him. Jason: Okay. Laura: Keep that. Keep some pressure there. Jason: Okay. Kevin: [Exhales sharply] Laura: Okay, Dante? Dante: Yeah. Kevin: [Exhales sharply] Laura: Yeah. Sam: Okay. Lulu: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Laura: What? Lulu: I don't want to leave Nikolas behind. I know, but we got to go. Kevin needs help, and we have got to get back to Spencer 'cause we're all he has now. Come on. [SCENE_BREAK] Valentin: Alert the men. Our guests are not to leave the island alive. [NEXT_ON] Maxie: Why wait? I can use this to destroy you now, Claudette. Claudette (to Nathan): I haven't been totally honest. Ava (to ): I think that we should take action. Kevin (to Laura): If you need to go on without me, you should. Nina (to Claudette): I need you in my office ASAP. Alexis (to Diane): I don't think I can do it. Julian: What do you want, Sonny?
