Maxie refuses to take the DA's deal to release her if she testifies against Matt Hunter. Matt tells Spinelli that he s going to turn himself in. Spinelli reveals that he was forced to reveal Matt's identity in court, but it wasn't enough; Maxie will remain incarcerated with a violent inmate named Tiny if she doesn't sign an agreement. Matt says he can try to convince Maxie to sign the document, but Maxie is so set on punishing herself that he doubts that he will be able to get through to her. Tiny and another inmate corner Maxie in an interview room and give her a "makeover." They make her up to look like a clown and draw a teardrop at the side of her eye. They tell her that next time it will be a tattoo. Matt goes to see Maxie and tells her that he wants her to sign the agreement. She tells him that she just did. Dante tells Mac that Johnny Zacchara is still his prime suspect in shooting out Anthony Zacchara's tires, but that he hasn't ruled out Kate Howard either. He reports that Kate was transferred to Shady Brook after having a breakdown. Mac tells Dante to concentrate on Johnny. Carly tells Sonny that she knows Kate tried to kill Anthony and that Todd Manning offered him a deal to keep mum about it if Sonny gets Michael to withdraw his statement about Starr. She asks him if he is going to let Kate pay for killing Starr's boyfriend and child. Sonny tells her that Kate didn't do it. He tells her about his encounter with Connie. He tells her that it is his fault because Connie manifested to keep him away from Kate. Carly wonders what will happen to Kate. Sonny tells her that Kate will get treatment. He says he doesn't know what he is going to do about Todd Manning's threat to go public with the information. He tells her that Johnny told him that he was never with Kate and that he was only with Connie once. He says he believes Johnny and asks her what she is going to do about Johnny. She says she doesn't know. The mayor comes to the police station and fires Mac based on the fiasco with Ronnie Dimestico and the lack of progress in the accident case. Dante returns to the station. Mac tells him that the mayor just fired him. He warns Dante that the mayor really wanted Sonny to go down for the accident and that she is gunning for any conviction against Sonny. The mayor goes to see Anna and asks her to be the police Commissioner. Tracy Quartermaine hasn't seen Anthony so she sends Luke a gift to thank him for getting rid of Anthony. Luke says he didn't do anything yet. He says his plan is to have one of his associates transport Anthony to Uruguay where he will be arrested. Anna hears Luke telling Tracy that all she needs to do is get Anthony to the boathouse. Johnny Zacchara cries and asks himself what he has done after having shot Anthony. When he goes to move Anthony's body, Anthony opens his eyes and gasps. It was just Johnny's imagination. Johnny imagines Anthony saying that he will never get rid of him. Dante goes to Johnny's penthouse to ask him some questions. Johnny says he won't talk to him. Johnny imagines Anthony saying Johnny is about to go down for three murders. Johnny reads a text from Tracy on Anthony's phone asking him to meet her at the boathouse. Johnny concludes that it is lucky that he isn't the only person that wants Anthony dead. He stashes Anthony's body and the gun in the boathouse for Tracy to find.
Anna: [Crying] Luke: Bad spa day? Anna: Shampoo. [Sniffles] Robin gave it to me. [Sniffs] And [Sniffs, exhales deeply] It smells like her. [SCENE_BREAK] Spinelli: All right. There's no time for small talk. I know that you know that I know that you know that you killed Lisa Niles. Matt: Okay. Spinelli: What are you gonna do about it? [SCENE_BREAK] Maxie: Mom? Felicia: Hey. How are you holding up, sweetheart? Maxie: Fine. What are you doing here? Felicia: Spinelli said you wouldn't sign the D.A.'s agreement to get out of prison. Maxie: No. I won't. And don't try to change my mind. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: I want to follow up on the Zacchara shooting. Whoever took out Anthony's tires and killed Cole and Hope Thornhart. Mac: You got any ideas? Dante: John Zacchara's still the leading suspect, but I haven't totally ruled out Kate Howard. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Well, there's just got to be a way to help her. I mean, Kate's got to understand that it wasn't her fault. If she needs anything, just let me know, okay? Thanks. Oh, it's Kate. She -- I mean -- oh. Kate's having a hard time 'cause she's away from Crimson. Carly: Don't bother. I already know Kate tried to kill Anthony Zacchara. [Gunshots] [SCENE_BREAK] Tracy: Anthony? I'm not a fan of hide-and-seek. Luke, you didn't take me up on it, did you? [SCENE_BREAK] Johnny: [Sniffles] [Exhales raggedly] What have I done? [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: Well, you know, Slim, recovering from this kind of grief -- I mean, it's not a linear experience. You don't just get a little bit better every day. You get better, and then you slide back a few days and inch forward. Anna: Yeah. I mean, it might help if I felt a little bit more useful, you know? I mean, I-I stayed here, because I wanted to spend the kind of time with my granddaughter that I didn't get to spend with Robin. Luke: Oh, I understand, believe me. Anna: Well, you know, she's not that kind of little girl -- Emma. She's got play dates and preschool and Patrick. So I-I don't know where I fit in. Luke: With no codes to break, no assassinations to foil -- it must be no fun being an ex-superspy. Anna: It's pathetic. [Scoffs] Luke: Well, you know, if you're bored, you and I could always plan and execute the perfect crime. Anna: [Laughs] Mm. Yeah, we could, actually. Luke: We could. It would be fun. Anna: No. Luke: No? Anna: Well -- Luke: No? [Both chuckle] It's gonna get better. Anna: [Sniffles] Luke: It really will. Anna: Yeah. Luke: It's just gonna take as much time as it takes, and -- you know, in the meantime, you don't have to be the world's strongest woman every day. Anna: Yeah, I do. I have to pretend to always be in control, even when I'm not. I think it's one of my more charming qualities. Luke: Is that what I find so charming about you? Anna: [Chuckles] Maybe. [Knock on door] Tracy: Luke! Luke: [Sighs] Anna: Oh, God. Tracy: Luke, open up! [Both sigh] I know you're in there. [SCENE_BREAK] Felicia: If you don't take this deal, there may not be another one. All you have to do is just sign it. Maxie: And testify in a court of law that Matt's guilty of murder? Felicia: Yeah. Just tell them what you saw. Maxie: I saw Matt clock Lisa Niles with a wrench. Felicia: And he's entitled to his own defense. All a lawyer has to do is claim extenuating circumstances. Maxie: No. You know what? Matt's not gonna need a lawyer, because I'm not gonna sign that form. I don't know why Spinelli ever thought I would. I guess it figures, since he sold me out in the first place. Felicia: No, no, no. He didn't do that. Maxie: I thought I could trust Spinelli, that he'd do anything for me. Felicia: Even let you rot in prison? Maxie: You know, Spinelli promised that he wouldn't tell anyone that I saw Matt kill Lisa, and then he just blurts it out in front of an entire courtroom. Felicia: Spinelli did everything he could to keep Matt out of it. Maxie: Yeah, well, it wasn't enough. [SCENE_BREAK] Matt: Back off, Spinelli. I already told Maxie I was gonna turn myself in. Spinelli: You did?! Matt: Yeah. As soon as she told me what I'd done. She begged me not to. Spinelli: And you allowed her to make that sacrifice? You would let the woman that you claim to love rot in prison? Matt: What are you talking about? I thought she was gonna be released because of your evidence. Isn't she? Spinelli: I should order something. We -- we have a lot to catch up on. [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: Todd Manning told me he overheard Kate at the police station. She's the one who shot out Anthony's tires. Sonny: And you believe him? Carly: So do you. Todd offered you a deal. If Michael changes his story about Starr trying to kill you, he'll forget what he knows about Kate. Sonny: How often have you been talking to Todd Manning? Carly: Enough to know that he's afraid that you've turned against Kate after she slept with Johnny. You might not care enough to save her. Is he right? Sonny: Manning's -- he's an idiot. Carly: No, he's not. Volatile, yes, but he's not stupid. He knows the deal only works if you still care about Kate, so I'm just wondering, are you gonna let Kate pay for what she did -- killing Starr's boyfriend and a child? Sonny: Kate didn't do it. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: Kate was transferred to ShadyBrook last night. Mac: Who authorized it? Dante: Judge Shepperd. Alexis filed a petition after she had a complete breakdown. Mac: All right. Then we'll stay focused on the one suspect we do have access to -- Johnny Zacchara. Dante: That's where I'm about to start. [SCENE_BREAK] Johnny: Yeah. Oh, just take the receipts to the bank. I got to take care of something here. [Sighs] [Sniffles] Oh, come on. Come on, come on. [Exhales deeply] Come on. Anthony: [Gasps] Johnny: [Breathing heavily] Easy. [Chuckles softly] What do you expect when you spend the entire night next to a dead body? [Sniffles] All right. All you need is a shower and a cup of coffee. [Gasps] Anthony: [Chuckling] Where do you think you're going? You might have pumped me full of bullets, but you'll never get rid of me. [Laughing] [SCENE_BREAK] Matt: You showed the court the picture, didn't you? So, why shouldn't Maxie be getting out of prison? Spinelli: The blurry photograph of a dark-haired man swinging a wrench at the late Lisa Niles -- yes, I did. Matt: So they have to know that it's not Maxie. Spinelli: The court refused to vacate Maxie's sentence based on a blurry photograph. Matt: So, what happens now? Spinelli: It's already happened. I'm afraid I had no choice but to tell the court that the true killer was you. [SCENE_BREAK] Maxie: You know, everybody's just better off with me in here. Felicia: Don -- don't say that! Maxie: It's true. You know, Spinelli -- he's brilliant, creative, amazing. And he needs to broaden his horizons, not spend his entire life waiting around for me to take advantage of him. Felicia: What about Mac? This is killing him. Maxie: Mac taught me to do what I think is right. Felicia: It is not right for you to be in here for the next 20 years with people who really are murderers. Maxie: It's what I deserve. Felicia: Do you even know what you're doing? Maxie: I'm trying to make amends. Felicia: No. You're bargaining with God. I know how that feels. If I thought that spending the next 20 years of my life in prison would bring back Georgie or Robin, I would do it in a heartbeat. Oh, my God, I'd do it in a heartbeat. But, you know, you just can't do that. You cannot bargain with God. Believe me, I've tried. [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: Oh, my favorite ex-wife. Tracy: For you. Luke: Well, thank you, although money is preferred. To what do I owe the, uh, gift? Tracy: I don't know. You tell me. How did you manage to get rid of that troll who called himself my husband? Luke: I didn't. Tracy: Really? Then where's Anthony? [SCENE_BREAK] Anthony: At least I don't have to worry about Luke Spencer and my lovely wife trying to whack me. You took care of that for them. Johnny: I had to. You knew I was the one who shot out your tires. Anthony: It was my fault you confessed to killing that little girl and her father? Johnny: I didn't know that there was another car involved, and I didn't mean for them to get killed. Only you, because you deserved it. Anthony: Ha. Keep saying it. You might even convince yourself. Johnny: I hate myself for what I did to that little girl and her father, all right? But at least now, no one's gonna find out about it. Anthony: Oh, listen to you! So proud of yourself for convincing Connie to take the rap for you. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Kate had nothing to do with the accident. I know it's gonna be hard for you to understand, but it was Connie. Carly: You believe Kate has a split personality? Sonny: I didn't want to at first, 'cause it was too convenient a way for her to get out of, you know, sleeping with Johnny. Carly: You think? Sonny: But then when I saw -- when I saw Connie, I got to tell you, she's absolutely real, and Kate has no control over her whatsoever. Carly: When did this happen? Sonny: I went to the PCPD to check on Kate. Alexis had, you know, arranged for her to see a psychiatrist. I walked in. She's standing behind a two-way mirror. She's talking to her reflection. But it seemed like she was talking to another person, having some kind of argument. I could -- I could only hear half of it. Then she starts getting upset, demanding answers, and then she collapsed and she broke down. So I ran in there, and I said, "Kate, I'm here. It's okay." She looked up at me, and it wasn't Kate. Carly: Are you sure? Sonny: It was like -- like another -- you know, I mean, Connie's like somebody who talks like she's from Bensonhurst. She talks loud and harsh. And she can't stand me. She made that very clear. And then she bragged about shooting Anthony's tires and causing the accident, like she was proud of it. Carly: Proud about killing a child? Sonny: [Sighs deeply] She was out of control, and, uh, I held her tight -- and then Kate came back to me. Carly: Well, how was Kate? Sonny: She was fragile, confused. She didn't even realize that I was -- that I was there. And then she kept a-asking me to tell her what Connie said. Carly: Did you tell her? Sonny: Well, I wanted to stall, because I didn't know how she was gonna react. But she kept asking me, so I had to be honest. Carly: Oh, God. Sonny: And when she found out she had killed, you know, a little girl and her father, she had a total -- total breakdown. Carly: I mean, if Kate is sick, and it sounds like she is, I just -- I can't imagine what she's going through right now. Sonny: It destroyed her. She's drowning in her guilt. Alexis called the judge to send her to -- ShadyBrook. Carly: Well, can they help her? Sonny: I don't know. I hope so. Carly: This has to be so difficult for you. Sonny: Well, you know what? Um, I struggle with bipolar every day, and I know what it's like to, you know, not be in control of your life, so how can I blame Kate for anything? Carly: I'm sorry. Hey -- I am so sorry. [SCENE_BREAK] Mac: Yeah, I'll be there in an hour. Mayor Lomax: Commissioner. Mac: Madam Mayor. What can I do for you? Mayor Lomax: We need to talk. Mac: I was just on my way to my office. Mayor Lomax: That's not necessary. This won't take long. You're fired. [SCENE_BREAK] Matt: You told the courts that I killed Lisa and that Maxie confessed only to protect me? Spinelli: I wasn't planning on exposing your crime, but there was no other way to secure Maxie's release. Matt: Except you didn't. Spinelli: Yet. There's still a chance. Matt: For what? For me to go to prison? Or for Maxie to be set free? Or both? Spinelli: Look, I realize this is a difficult situation for you, but you did, in fact, kill somebody, so I don't feel that bad for you. Matt: Yeah, yeah, you know, 'cause if I go to prison, that just gives you a clear path to Maxie, doesn't it? Spinelli: Okay, my romantic hopes aside -- they are not the point. Maxie will remain incarcerated with the improbably named Tiny, and you will continue to evade prosecution if you do not convince Maxie to sign that agreement. Matt: What -- what agreement are you talking about? And what's this Tiny? [SCENE_BREAK] Tiny: Nice day, huh? Kino: Beautiful. Maxie: [Crying softly] [Gasps] Tiny: What's wrong, Princess? Maxie: None of your business. Kino: Hey, no shame in crying. It's not like this place doesn't give you plenty of reasons. Maxie: What do you want? Tiny: What we got here is a failure to communicate. Kino and I don't want anything. We got something to make you feel much, much better. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: I didn't tell you the best part. Carly: What? Sonny: It was my fault. Carly: Okay. If you accept that Kate is mentally ill, and Connie is a different person, then what she did is on her -- not on Kate and definitely not on you. Sonny: Connie existed to keep me away from Kate. That's why she caused the accident. That's why she shot out the tires and planted the gun. She wanted to send me away for murder. When that didn't work, that's why she set me up to walk in on her and Johnny, and I bought it. I bought that lie like, you know -- Carly: How the hell would you know otherwise, Sonny? Sonny: Connie's only purpose was to destroy me and Kate. Carly: It's what she's good at. She destroyed me and Johnny in the process. [SCENE_BREAK] Anthony: Pretty cold convincing Connie to take the blame for the accident. Poor Kate probably thinks she did it. Hasn't that woman suffered enough? Now she's gonna blame herself for two deaths she didn't cause. Johnny: Her attorney's gonna cop the insanity plea. She's not even gonna do any prison time. Anthony: [Chuckling] You keep telling yourself that. Johnny: You know what? I took care of this whole thing the best way I knew how. And now with you gone, I got nothing to worry about. Anthony: The original plan had a lot of merit -- you kill me in a traffic accident and frame Sonny. He goes to prison for murder, and you're free to do as you please. Johnny: I don't want to listen to you. Anthony: Except you didn't bargain on that other car, did you? Two innocent people were killed. Johnny: Since when do you give a damn about innocent bystanders?! Anthony: It doesn't matter who you convince to take the blame, you were responsible for those deaths -- and mine. Are you ready to carry that on your conscience for the rest of your life? [SCENE_BREAK] Tracy: When are you gonna do something? Luke: Oh, take it easy, Spanky. I have a plan. Tracy: Oh, really? Well, how about no more vague assurances? I want details. Luke: All right. All right. I have an old friend. He's the pilot on a steamer. He sells "used cars" in Uruguay, under the table, of course. Tracy: Of course. Luke: He ships out today with an extra passenger -- Anthony. Tracy: Ah. Well, there's a little poetic justice in that, considering how long he had me trapped on that yacht. But it's only a temporary measure. He can book passage home anytime he wants. Luke: No, no, no. He can't, because I have another associate in Montevideo who owes me a big favor. He's gonna make sure that Anthony is arrested. Tracy: For what? Luke: Stowing away. Smuggling. Human trafficking. Who cares? The point is, the Uruguayan prison system is a one-way ticket. You check in. You don't check out. Tracy: I'll take it. Luke: I thought you might. Now, all you have to do is get Anthony to the boathouse. I'll take care of the rest. [SCENE_BREAK] Johnny: Your death's not on my conscience. I spent my entire life trying to get away from you, and I finally did. Anthony: Sure you wanted me gone? Johnny: Positive. Anthony: Then why am I haunting you? Johnny: Shut up. Shut up. Shut up! [Knock on door] Johnny: Who's there? Dante: PCPD. Open up. I need to ask you a few questions. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Johnny should have never gone along with Connie's plan. But if it hadn't been him -- she'd have found somebody else, because her whole, you know, plan was to convince me that Kate was unfaithful. Carly: Sounds like you're letting Johnny off the hook for sleeping with Connie. Sonny: No way in hell. But I have to admit, he did come -- he came yesterday to, uh, tell me Kate was innocent. Carly: He did? Sonny: Yeah. He came here yesterday. He -- he said Kate -- Connie -- came to him, and he shouldn't have slept with her, but Kate didn't know what was going on and not to blame her. Carly: Why did he do that? Sonny: I don't know, Carly. I mean, maybe -- maybe he feels a little guilty for using Kate and hurting you. Carly: Is that what he said? Sonny: He said that he lost you, and he'll do anything to get you back, even tell me the truth. Now, I got -- I got to admit that I believed that Johnny was the one who tried to kill Anthony and frame me -- and I was wrong. [SCENE_BREAK] [Knock on door] Dante: Zacchara, open up! You don't answer the door -- it's probable cause. Johnny: [Sighs deeply] Come on. What do you want? Dante: Is there a reason you, uh, don't want to let me in? Johnny: Yeah, a little thing called the Fourth Amendment. What are you doing here? Dante: It's about Anthony. Got a few questions about whoever shot out his tires. Johnny: Oh. Right. Since your father was acquitted. Dante: You know, you're a person of interest, Johnny, so I got a few questions for you. Johnny: But I got a rock-solid alibi for the night in question. And the gun that was used was found in Kate Howard's office, so shouldn't you be questioning her? Dante: Right now I'm questioning you. Johnny: Well, I'm done talking, and, unless you got a warrant, this conversation's over. Anthony: Sounds like the good old PCPD still has some questions about that gun. Huh. That's a little disconcerting, seeing as how your good friend Connie was supposed to take responsibility for it. Johnny: Maybe they haven't talked to her yet. Anthony: Or maybe she changed her mind. I'd be worrying if I were you, John. You could be about to go down for three murders. [SCENE_BREAK] Tracy: This has to go off without a h -- Anna: Tracy. Gosh. I can't tell you how great it is to see you. What brings you by? Tracy: Oh, a little of this, a little of that. Anna: Yeah? Tracy: Gee. Would you look at the time? I have some pressing business to attend to. Nice to see you. Luke: Always a pleasure to see you, my darling. Always a pleasure. [Door closes] Luke: Nice shower? Anna: Yeah. I didn't wash my hair. [Chuckles] So, what was all that about? Luke: Could you be more specific? Anna: Yeah. The some-kind-of-plotting thing going on with Anthony. [Knock on door] Luke: Oh! The Girl Scouts are here with their cookies. [Chuckles] Felicia. Felicia: Oh. Luke: HI. I heard you were in town. Felicia: I apologize for just stopping by. Luke: No, it's no problem. Felicia: Is Anna here? Luke: She is. Please, come in. Anna: Hi. Felicia: Anna. Anna: HI. Oh, gosh. How's Maxie doing? Felicia: Not so good. Luke: Oh. Sorry to hear that. Is there anything I can do? Felicia: I don't think so. Luke: Okay. If you'll excuse me, I, uh, have a situation to take care of. [Door closes] Felicia: [Crying softly] Anna: Are you all right? Why don't you just come on in and sit down? Felicia: Well, I've had better mornings, that's for sure. Anna: What's going on? I mean, it's -- it's not Mac, is it? He's not still mad at you? Felicia: No, he's been very polite. I think the situation with Maxie has brought us closer together. Anna: Good. That's good, 'cause I'd have to say something otherwise. Felicia: I really appreciate that. Anna: Well, what are friends for? Felicia: [Inhales sharply] Anna: What is it? Felicia: Oh, Anna, I don't know what I'm gonna do. [SCENE_BREAK] Mayor Lomax: I have ample reasons for your dismissal, Commissioner. Mac: Such as? Mayor Lomax: Where do I begin? Perhaps the one that hits closest to home -- the debacle with Ronnie Dimestico. Mac: I admit we were blindsided, but that was an isolated incident. Mayor Lomax: Other than the criminals lurking within your own department, there are too many unsolved cases, starting with the accident on 115. Cole Thornhart and his daughter were related to some very prominent families in Pennsylvania. These people want a resolution, and they want justice. Mac: That case went to trial. Mayor Lomax: Sonny Corinthos was acquitted again. Mac: I believe that's the D.A.'s arena. Mayor Lomax: How do you expect him to succeed when you failed to provide him with the necessary tools? If your department had secured the proper evidence, this city might have finally been free of Sonny Corinthos. Mac: This department doesn't manufacture evidence, and I can't conjure it up out of thin air. Mayor Lomax: Then there's the matter of your daughter Maxie. Mac: She's innocent, Jan. Mayor Lomax: She's serving a 20-year sentence for two murders. Mac: That sentence is about to be overturned pending an agreement with the D.A. Mayor Lomax: I'm sorry. It's too little, too late. I have no choice but to clean house, Mac, which means you need to clean out your desk. [SCENE_BREAK] Matt: So if Maxie signs this agreement, and if she comes forward, and she says that she saw me commit the crime, then she goes free? Spinelli: Yeah, but she refuses to sign. She will not free herself at your expense. Matt: [Sighs] What she's going through to protect -- it's just -- it's amazing. Spinelli: She's a person of rare courage and loyalty. Matt: Well, she saw me do something that was absolutely horrible, and instead of come forward and say that she saw me do it, she hires Zacchara to cover it up. Spinelli: With the best of intentions, Maxie's made a series of disastrous choices. Trusting Anthony was among them. Matt: And now she's stuck in that hole with someone named Tiny. Spinelli: Which is why you have to convince her to sign that document. You owe her. [SCENE_BREAK] Maxie: I just need to get back to my cell. Where's the guard? Kino: It's time for her favorite soap opera. You know how it is. Tiny: Besides, Princess, we need you. We're doing a makeover. Maxie: Seriously? Tiny: Yeah. Maxie: I'm really good at makeovers. I mean, they're kind of my specialty, especially cheekbones, n-not that either of you need one, but, um -- okay? Anyway, who's first? [Tiny and Kino laugh] Kino: See, she didn't get it. We're not getting made over. You are. Maxie: That's okay. My -- my cheekbones are fine. Tiny: No, no, no. Actually, they could use a little work. Maxie: No. Tiny: Kino, hold her down. Maxie: No! Wait! Tiny: Don't you want to fit in, Princess, and be like us? Or do you think you're better than we are? Maxie: No, I never said that. I -- wait. Where'd you get those? Those are mine. Tiny: Don't worry. I'll give it back. Maxie: Guard! Oh, no! Please! Guard! [Crying] Guard! [SCENE_BREAK] Matt: It's gonna be tough to get her to sign those papers. Spinelli: It's the only way to escape her sentence. Matt: You know that she blames herself for what happened to Robin. She believes that she deserves this. Spinelli: Okay. Well, then you need to convince her that Robin would want her to live a full life, to realize her limitless potential. Matt: I can try. But even if she lets go of this guilt, she's never gonna testify against me. She thinks that I need to take care of my brother... that my freedom is worth hers. Spinelli: Well, I guess the question is, do you agree? [SCENE_BREAK] Kino: All finished. [Chuckles] We promised we'd give her a makeover, didn't we? Tiny: Kino, let's show her how good she looks. Kino: Okay. [Chuckles] Maxie: [Gasps] Tiny: I even gave you the Tiny special. See? For that lady you bashed in the head. You're a killer, just like me. Maxie: I am not like you. Tiny: You're right. This is only eyeliner. Next is the tat. Maxie: Tat? Tiny: I know they take a while, but we're both in for 20, right? Looks like we're gonna be spending a lot of time together. Later, Princess. [Door closes] [SCENE_BREAK] Felicia: She doesn't even know what she's doing to herself. She's just so worried about Matt and how much Patrick needs Matt. Anna: Yeah. Felicia: Oh, I'm sorry, Anna. I-I know how much you've gone through with your daughter, and here I am talking about my daughter. Anna: It's okay. I want to help. Felicia: But to come over here and to cry on your shoulder -- it's just not fair. Anna: If you'd been here an hour earlier, I was crying all over Luke's shoulder, so -- Felicia: Oh. So, what's going on with you guys? You living together? Anna: Well, not like that. I mean, no. This is just a -- kind of mutually beneficial arrangement. That's all it is. Felicia: Oh. Well, I know we've never really talked about this before, because it's ancient history, but Luke and I -- we were once involved, and I think that's ultimately what broke up me and Mac. Anna: I think I knew that, you know? Felicia: Well, obviously, since things didn't work out with me and Luke, that doesn't mean they can't work out with -- with you. Anna: Oh, no. It's not what you're thinking a-at all. Luke and I -- well, there is no Luke and I. You know, we're just friends. Felicia: Roommates? Anna: Separate rooms. They're -- they're very separate. And we have, you know, our own lives and our own concerns, and we have, you know, our own lives. I mean, that would never happen. Felicia: Oh, I'm just saying you could do a lot worse. Anna: Yeah. I mean [Chuckles] But Luke. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: Hey. I went over to Johnny Zacchara's, try to rattle his cage a little bit. Mac: Did you get anything? Dante: Not yet, but I'm -- I'm just getting started. Mac: The mayor just fired me. Dante: She what? Mac: Gave me a half-hour to clean out my desk. Dante: What are you talking -- wait, wait, wait a second. You kidding me? What, is this because of the Dimestico case? Mac: She mentioned it. Dante: But that wasn't even your fault. If anyone's to blame for that -- Mac: Ronnie's just part of it. She's getting outside pressure to wrap up the Thornhart accident. Dante: That's what I'm working on right now. Mac: She wanted Sonny to go down for that. You know, truthfully, she wanted Sonny to go down for anything. You might want to keep that in mind. Dante: I would never use my badge to protect Sonny. Mac: I know, Dante, all right? You're a good cop. I don't regret giving you a little slack on that, but maybe the next person who's the commissioner is not gonna be so kind. Dante: This is wrong. I mean, we have one of the -- the highest average of completed cases in the state. I mean, you've come in on budget, even with all these cutbacks. I mean, what else does she want? Mac: She wants the press to get off her back. She wants to distance herself from all these mistakes. She wants to look like she's taking action. Dante: Well, maybe she's not aware of how much your officers respect you and how good a job you've done here. I want to go talk to her. Mac: It won't matter. And you know what? It doesn't matter to me. If I'm not wanted, I'm not staying. Dante: What do you want me to do? Dante: Your job. Keep digging in the Anthony Zacchara case. Dante: I will. Mac: Then you'll find the truth. [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: [Sighs] Sonny: You got something on your mind? Carly: Johnny swears that sleeping with Kate was just a one-time thing just to hurt you, and he says he's gonna spend the rest of his life making it up to me. Sonny: You believe him? Carly: I'm starting to. Sonny: You gonna forgive him? Carly: What about you? I mean, you said Kate and Connie are two different people. Can you get past what happened with Johnny? Sonny: Very hard to get past seeing your girl in bed with someone -- Carly: Yeah, I remember. I -- yeah. Sonny: But you know what? She's mentally ill. I mean, I'm not a hypocrite. If she didn't know what she was doing, then maybe there's nothing to forgive. Carly: What's gonna happen to Kate? Sonny: She's gonna get help. She's gonna get treatment. Carly: What about this deal with Todd? Sonny: If I don't get Michael to back off his story about Starr, then Manning's gonna go public with his story about Kate, which means everyone's gonna know that that little girl died because of her. Carly: What are you gonna do? Sonny: I don't know. What are you gonna do about Johnny? Carly: I don't know, either. [SCENE_BREAK] Johnny: Speak up. I can't hear you. Oh, that's right. You're dead. You got nothing to say to me ever again. You're dead and gone forever. Now all I got to do is find a place to get rid of you. [Cell phone chimes] Johnny: Hmm. [Chuckles] Wow. Lucky for me I'm not the only one who wants you dead. [SCENE_BREAK] Spinelli: Mr. Corinthos, sir. Sonny: Spinelli. Spinelli: Pardon me for noticing, but -- it appears the weight of the world rests on your shoulders. Sonny: It feels about right. Spinelli: You have my heartfelt commiseration. I share the pain of knowing that the woman you love is behind bars. [SCENE_BREAK] Guard: Another visitor. Maxie: Matt. What are you doing here? Matt: I wanted to see you. Are you okay? Maxie: Yeah, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be? Matt: I know what that is. Maxie: You do? I know you want to help me, but I need you to help yourself. I want you to sign it. Maxie: I'm so sorry, Matt. I just did. [SCENE_BREAK] Felicia: Mac, I'm so glad I caught you. Mac: Felicia. This isn't a good time. Felicia: We can't keep waiting for someone else to save Maxie. We have to do it ourselves. Mac: We will. Felicia: Oh. So then you'll help me? Mac: We'll do whatever we have to to get through to Maxie. Thanks to the mayor, I've got plenty of time. Mayor Lomax: Anna Devane? I'm Mayor Janice Lomax. Anna: Yes. I know who you are. Yes. Come in, please. Mayor Lomax: Thank you. Anna: Uh, what can I do for you? Mayor Lomax: I'll get right to the point. I just fired Mac Scorpio, and I want you to be my next police commissioner. [SCENE_BREAK] [Cell phone rings] Sonny: Yeah, Milo? M-Manning's there now? Keep him there. I'm on my way. [SCENE_BREAK] [Knock on door] Carly: Johnny, are you in there? [Knock on door] Carly: I think -- I think we should talk. [SCENE_BREAK] Tracy: Anthony! Are you in here? Tell me you got my text. [Laughs] Doesn't anybody know how to put things away in here? This looks just like a dead body. Oh! Oh, my God.
