Sonny comes into Jakes and finds Kate kissing Coleman. Kate and Sonny have a tense conversation about each other's trips, Sonny's influence getting Kristina into Yale. She notices his keychain and he tells her it is a piece of the door to the closet that Deke used to lock him in. He tells her that he bought his childhood home. He tells her stories of his and his mother's abuse at Deke's hands. She encourages him to get rid of that reminder of his past and let go. She tells him that he can decide not to let his past define who he is. Maxie and Spinelli safely land on Spoon Island. Maxie is desperate to get on the party boat to stop Elizabeth from getting her claws on Matt and to convince Matt to be in the Woman behind the Man issue of Crimson. She babbles on and on about Matt to Spinelli. Spinelli observes a light on in Wyndemere and fears they are in the presence of a spirit. Maxie tells him she hopes he isn't trying to make another overture. Johnny struggles to get up after being drugged by Lisa. Lisa chloroforms Elizabeth and tosses her overboard. Olivia wonders who Steve was thinking about when he was singing a song for her. He doesn't tell her that, but they tell each other stories and get to know each other better. Steve and Olivia look for the captain and mate, to no avail. Olivia notices something wrong with the engine. Patrick and Robin spend some adult time together in their cabin. Robin goes to get some food and Lisa goes into the cabin. When Robin returns, Patrick is gone and Lisa chloroforms Robin. Robin wakes up to discover Lisa has her and Patrick tied up. Someone pulls Elizabeth out of the water.
Olivia: Yo. You still with me? Steve: I'm sorry. [Chuckles] Sometimes I just work out riffs in my head. This is the way my brain works sometimes. I'm still here. And there's no place I'd rather be. What's wrong? Olivia: That's what I'm trying to figure out. You just had a look in your eyes that I've only seen on people that were thinking about something or someone that they lost. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Okay. Back off. Now. Coleman: Easy, brother. It was the lady's idea. I mean, not that I'm complaining. Or that surprised. Old habits, right? Sonny: I'm not talking to you. You don't get to have a bad day and come in here, play rough with the help. [SCENE_BREAK] Maxie: Kate is so gonna fire me. I have to fill the last slot for the "Woman Behind the Man" feature. There's no reception anywhere. Spinelli: Apologies, Maximista. Although it's not surprising that they have yet to build cell towers on Spoon Island. Doesn't quite go with the tenebrous ornamentation, although I suppose if they put a gargoyle at the top of the tower maybe-- Maxie: Spinelli. Can we focus, please? We need to find a gas can or a working phone. I can't believe we got off that sandbar, got the engine started, only to have an empty tank or...Was that the point? Spinelli: Well, I mean, the good news is that we are on safe, dry land. Maxie: I don't want to be on safe, dry land. I want to be on that party boat. I have to seduce Matt into agreeing to do the "Woman Behind the Man" feature to save my job, so you need to stop staring at haunted mansions and get me out to that yacht before Elizabeth seals the deal with my boyfriend. [SCENE_BREAK] Elizabeth: No, no, no! [Whimpers] Lisa: Too late. Missed your chance. Elizabeth: Why? Lisa: Wrong place, wrong time. Nothing personal. Or maybe it is. [Water splash] [SCENE_BREAK] Robin: Hey. I'm gonna need that. Patrick: Not for what I'm gonna do to you. Robin: I mean for later. It gets chilly out on the deck. Patrick: That's why we're gonna just chill in here. Robin: Whoo! Patrick: Get the First Mate to bring some food up later. Robin: Really? You don't feel guilty? You don't feel like we should be with everyone and celebrating Matt's accomplishment? Patrick: I do not feel guilty, we are celebrating, and Matt's knee-deep in a bottle of champagne right now. Robin: It's supposed to be Matt's big night and it feels like we're the ones celebrating. Patrick: And I'm okay with that. I think we should make the most of it. [SCENE_BREAK] Coleman: Well, I appreciate your concern, brother, but Kate here wanted to play rough, so I was kind of happy to oblige her. Sonny: Scotch on the rocks. I'll take care of the lady's order myself. Kate: Um, no, that's all right. I'm just leaving. Sonny: No, I'm thinking the disrespectful bastard who runs this place should leave. Coleman: No disrespect intended, brother. I wasn't aware you and Kate were back on. Kate: No, that's because we're not. Coleman: Well, does he know that? A little heads up would have been nice. Could have dialed down the charm a few notches, you know? [Chuckles] Although I'm not sure it would have mattered much, brother. Kate here is a little kid who always gets what she wants. Sonny: Yeah. So do I. Kate: No. Sonny: Come here. Kate: No, Sonny. Sonny: Just have a seat with me. Have one drink with me and I'll help you forget about your bad day, otherwise his is gonna get a lot worse. Coleman: She'd love to have a drink. [SCENE_BREAK] Steve: When did you get so astute at reading faces, huh? Olivia: Well, you know, Bensonhurst boys were not exactly known for their acute powers of self-expression, so you had to pretty much intuit what they were talking about unless it was sports or cars. Steve: Let me guess. Sonny was one of those Bensonhurst boys. Olivia: [Chuckles] Well, you know, Sonny had his secrets, but never from me. I always knew exactly what he was thinking, exactly what he was feeling. Steve: You grew up with Sonny. You probably knew too much about him. Olivia: Is that really possible? Can you really never know too much about a person? Steve: I think there's something to say for, you know, keeping a little mystery. I mean, what if you knew everything there was to know about me and you got bored and lost interest? Olivia: I doubt it. So, um...so, why don't you tell me? What were you actually thinking about back there? Steve: [Sighs] I know this is gonna sound cheesy. But sometimes, the music just comes to me, you know, in my head and it's like...an equation that my brain automatically has to solve. And you never know. This next song might be about you. Maybe I'll call it "she knows too much." [SCENE_BREAK] Maxie: You should have heard the way Elizabeth went on and on about Matt when we were trapped together in that warehouse. Oh, and by the way, talk about a useless fellow hostage. I mean, I practically had to do all the escaping myself. Spinelli: Um, aided by the Jackal, who you did credit with saving your life. Maxie: All Elizabeth did was sit there and snarked about how I don't understand Matt and I don't appreciate him and he deserves so much better than me. Whatever. Spinelli: Wouldn't that decision be up to Maximista's man-friend? Maxie: There is no decision. Matt's already mine. He knows what I bring to the table. Look, I am the Woman Behind the Man. The girlfriend behind the guy who's made huge medical strides doing whatever it is that he was doing to get published. None of this would have happened if he was with some desperate, clingy girl like Elizabeth. You know, I bet she expects her man to be with her every waking hour of the day. I gave Matt the space that he needed to get his research done. I mean, is it too much to ask for him to support me in return? I'm also doing him a huge favor by getting him on the pages of Crimson. I mean, seriously? Who's gonna read some dusty, old medical journal other than dusty, old doctors? Crimson will give him the exposure that he needs. I mean, this is Matt's big chance to get the fame that he deserves. Spinelli: Raise Maximista's profile, as well. Maxie: Well, yes, there's that, but, I mean, I spent a lot of time working for Kate and working for Crimson. I've earned it. I mean, I deserve this time in the spotlight. So we need to get off this dark, depressing rock and get onto that yacht, okay? ASAP. Spinelli: This place may not be as deserted as we think. Maxie: Of course it's deserted. Nikolas packed up and took his life to wherever--another casualty of Elizabeth's victim act. You know, I was with Matt before he was on the verge of his medical breakthrough. [Chuckles] I mean, he was just a regular guy. I mean, he was a brain surgeon, of course, but who's counting? Spinelli: I-I-it's back. Maxie: Of course Elizabeth wants to be with him now that he's a soon-to-be- famous doctor. She just wants to latch on to his rising star. She probably thinks she never has to work another day in her life. Spinelli: It's fading. Maxie: Elizabeth completely ruined Lucky's life and Nikolas'. Jason barely escaped. I am not gonna let her trample all over Matt. Spinelli: It's gone. Maxie: What's gone? Spinelli: The presence. Maxie: The presence? Okay. What are you talking about? Spinelli: The--the light. Maxie: What light? I don't see a light. Spinelli: It was there, but now it's gone. It was what I saw earlier floating on the shoreline before it disappeared, then reappeared, and then moved through the transom. Maxie: Okay, wait. Are you trying to distract me or something because you're the one that stranded us here all alone? Spinelli: Yes, I am guilty of stranding us, but now I am quite convinced that we are not alone. [SCENE_BREAK] Steve: [Humming] Da-da-da da many crazy things I tried to catch her I--man, I know I'm a little rusty, but it wasn't that bad, was it? Olivia: No. No, you were great. Steve: Has anybody ever told you you're a terrible liar? Olivia: Yeah? Right back at you. Steve: I've never lied to you. Olivia: [Chuckles] All right. What about after the bus crash? You had to make me keep talking about Dante to keep me from passing out from the pain. Steve: And? Olivia: And you were trying to convince me that you were actually interested in hearing stories about my kid. Steve: Tried to c--I was! I-I couldn't imagine how tough it must have been to raise a kid as a teenager. Olivia: Well, raising a kid is--that's a cakewalk. It's raising a teenager when the hard work starts. You know, my aunt Theresa tried to warn me. I came back from the hospital with Dante, she was there waiting for me with a gift. She said, "You're gonna need this in about 13, 14 years." Steve: What was it? Olivia: Right here. I wore this thing every single day from the day Dante started high school till the day he graduated. Saint Teresa of Avila--patron saint of headaches. [Chuckles] [Both laugh] Yeah. Steve: Did it work? Did she take the pain away? Olivia: It was either her or all the ibuprofen I was popping, but, I mean, any time I feel a migraine coming on, I always fish her out of the bottom of my jewelry box, so... Steve: How are you feeling now? Olivia: I can do without the boat rocking around like this, but at least my head doesn't hurt. So she must be doing her job. Steve: So, is there a patron saint for everything? Olivia: Uh...yeah. Pretty much. I guess I should have looked up the one for pole dancing. Steve: [Chuckles] At least you got a great story out of it, huh? Olivia: No, you got a great story out of it. All I got was a broken ass bone. Steve: Yeah, well, good thing you like to hang out with highly qualified physicians who also study massage therapy. Olivia: [Laughs] Steve: Mind if I take a look? Olivia: I'm all yours. [SCENE_BREAK] Coleman: You look a little low there, kemosabe. Thought I'd help you out, brother. On the house, of course. You better get to work, girl. You're slacking. Sonny: You want to try something different? Wine? Kate: You know, why don't we skip the drinks and you just tell me what this is all about? Sonny: That's what I want to know. Kate: How did you even know I was here? Did you have me followed? Sonny: Well, you know, I have people checking the place, seeing who he pays off for protection. Coleman: Which would be you and you alone. Kate: If only your men could show the same respect for my privacy. Sonny: I need to know who's coming and going. How was your trip? Kate: Fine. Sonny: Business or pleasure? Kate: What do you mean exactly? Sonny: Well, you get pissed off when, you know, you can't reach your assistant. Kate: Why do you care where I went? Sonny: Well, I don't--I didn't ask you where you went. I just want to know how your trip was. Kate: It was...informative. Good? And how was your visit with Kristina? I heard she gave up on an internship with me at Crimson to attend Yale. Sonny: Why does this surprise you? It's Yale. Everybody's dying to get into Yale. Kate: Oh, yeah. Let me guess--some unsuspecting frat boy? Making room on the roster? Or did you make the dean of admissions an offer she couldn't refuse? Sonny: You really want to know? Kate: No, I don't. I just hope you know that Kristina will hate you for this. Sonny: It was--it was--you know, I got her into college somehow. It's not a big deal. I mean, there are worse things for a dad to do to a kid. Kate: Mm-hmm. Yeah. I'm sure there are. That seems to become your new toy. Sonny: Uh, yeah. Souvenir I brought back from a trip. Kate: Before or after the one Brenda took out of town? Sonny: After. After. Kate: How was it? How was your trip? Sonny: Informative. Kate: You went back there, didn't you? You went back to that house where it all happened with you and Deke. Sonny: Yeah. Kate: Why did you do that? Why would you do that to yourself? Sonny: I wanted to sit on the steps and not worry that the door is gonna open. I didn't want to...be afraid that, if the door did open, if somebody grabs me, throws me in the closet after he beats me up. Kate: And? Sonny: Had to do a lot of thinking. Kate: Did you do any feeling, or did you just keep denying those? Sonny: I don't deny my feelings. They're under my skin like fire, you know? They sting. They burn. Kate: And this is what informed you. Sonny: It informed my decision. Kate: What? Sonny: I bought the house. Kate: You bought the house? It's still standing? Sonny: Most of it. This is a piece of the door to the closet. Kate: The one that Deke locked you in when he beat your mother. Sonny: Yeah. Pitch black in there. The only light coming through was through this keyhole. Kate: Mm-hmm. Sonny: But I could see everything--my mother getting beat up. She'd be on her knees, begging Deke to stop, but of course, he wouldn't. And I would do everything I could to get out of that closet. I'd bang on the door. And then he--he would--he would turn around. He'd look at the door like...and I swear to you, he could see right through it. He was, like, looking at me right in the eyes. And then he'd stop, come to the door. My mother would say, "no, Deke, don't! Don't! Don't go! Please, please, please." But he--he--he wouldn't listen. Kate: Go on. Sonny: So I would...I would push myself back against the clothes, and I can still smell the--the smoke from his cop jacket, you know? And he would tear open the door, he'd come in, and he'd--he'd grab me. And he got me in a cop move. You know, like the grip? he'd get a grip like that, and then my hands would be like right here 'cause I was trying to get out of--and then he would slam the door on my hand. Bam! Bam! Bam! On each of my fingers. [Sighs] Throw me in the closet, lock the door. And I told myself, "First thing I'm gonna do when I found out Deke, you know--" Kate: Was removed? Sonny: When I found out Deke got what he deserved, I went back to that door, tore it down, slammed it, kicked it...punched it, spit on it until it was in pieces, and that's where I got this--this thing. I made it into a key holder. Kate: You made that into a holder of all your pain, Sonny. Of all the darkness and the misery. You made it into a symbol. Sonny: Maybe it was just a reminder of what I'm not gonna do to my kids. Kate: You know, I think it's our religion. It's all about symbols of pain and sin, reminding us of our unworthiness. Sonny: Yeah, well, it's hard to--hard to let go, right? Kate: Well, I don't think you'll ever be able...to get past any of this if you hold on to this and everything that it represents. Sonny: Well, I'm just--I'm just trying to own it. Kate: Oh, no, Sonny. Sonny: Yeah. Kate: You are not owning that. It is owning you. [SCENE_BREAK] Maxie: Nikolas must have shut off the electricity when he decided to ditch this dump, which probably means the phones aren't working, either. Awesome. Spinelli: The Jackal senses sadness and anger. Maxie: You think?! Spinelli: No, no. No, Maximista, not your anger. I mean, Prince Nikolas and the family Cassadine, I mean, they imprinted their emotions in these walls. Fair Emily died here. Maxie: Please don't remind me of that awful, awful black-and-white ball from hell. Spinelli: Evil forces here even before the Cassadines took ownership, drifting with the last light of their souls, searching for the door to final rest. Maxie: Okay. Someone really needs to lay off the Stephen King novels. Spinelli: My granny spoke of them, like will-o'-the-wisps. Maxie: Spinelli, seriously. You need to stop. I don't care about the wisps or their will, and you're really starting to freak me out here, okay? We need to focus on gasoline and phone services, not some ghost stories from your grandma. There's obviously nobody here to help us. [Creaking] Did you hear that? [Wind whistling] [SCENE_BREAK] [Cell phone rings] Johnny: Lisa. [SCENE_BREAK] Robin: Oh. Well, I guess I know what's on your mind. Patrick: Where are you going? Stop. Robin: To get you some food. Patrick: I would rather have you. Don't worry about that. Robin: Well, tell your stomach that. Patrick: I-- [Stomach growls][Growling continues] Robin: Okay. That settles it. I'm out of here. Patrick: Come on. We were just getting to the good part. Robin: I'm okay with you making noise in the bedroom, but not that kind of noise, okay? I'm gonna go get you some food and I'll be right back. I promise. Patrick: I see. Just couldn't stop yourself, could you? Lisa: Not a chance. [SCENE_BREAK] Kate: Sonny, it's time to move on. Sonny: Like you did? Change my name? Create a whole new life? Kate: Would that be so bad? Sonny: I got kids. I can't do that. They need me. Kate: Yes, they do. They need you to be present in their lives, not to be stuck in the past. Sonny: I'm doing the best I can. Kate: Do unto others as they would do unto you? I don't think that holds you in a very enviable position with God. Sonny: Oh, well, not everybody can be like you, Connie. Kate: Mm. There's that look. Sonny: What are you talking about? Kate: That stupid, smug look I grew up hating... Sonny: Yeah? Kate: ...And adoring at the same time. God, how is it possible to feel so many conflicting things about one person? Sonny: What do you feel for Coleman? Kate: What? Sonny: What do you feel for Coleman? You think I don't see what's going o-- Kate: I don't feel anything for Coleman. That would be nothing. Sonny: Oh, right, right, right. Like Paulie Tesoro. You know, back in the day, you wouldn't give him the time of day, but you know what? In school, he wasn't even around. But as soon as we got in a fight, you were over at his father's house 'cause you wanted to piss me off. Kate: I was not. You know, that's your problem. That's what I'm talking about. You have a death grip on the past. It's not healthy. Sonny: And turning your back on it, pretending like it never happened? That's healthy? Kate: I made a choice a long time ago that I wasn't gonna let my past define who I am. And you can do that, too, Sonny, if you choose. [SCENE_BREAK] Steve: How's that tailbone feeling? Olivia: Oh, Doc, you know what? I think you've got the healing touch. [Chuckles] Steve: Me and Saint Teresa, huh? Olivia: Oh, you know what? You know what? Just keep laughing. Laugh it up. You certainly didn't hold back when I fell off the freakin' pole. Steve: That was funny. Olivia: Well, I'm sure it was very funny, but the problem was I wasn't trying to be funny. I was trying to be sexy. Steve: Yeah, well, you don't have to try. You are. Olivia: No, what I am is clumsy. I always have been. I remember the first time I tried to walk in heels, I fell right on my face and I chipped my tooth. Steve: Oh, ow! Olivia: Yes, it took me two whole summers to save up enough money to get the thing fixed. Steve: Well, I bet you were still sexy even with a chipped tooth. Olivia: Yeah, very hot. Very sexy. Mark Cerullo got the whole neighborhood calling me "chip." Steve: [Laughs] Olivia: Till I kicked his ass at a block party. Steve: Wow. I am learning so much about you tonight...chip. I'm just kidding. I swear I'll never do it again. Olivia: Okay. Steve: All right? I can't afford to cut you loose, miss out on all these good stories. Olivia: You know what? My life is pretty much an open book, so why don't you just tell me what you're hiding. Steve: I hate to disappoint you. My life wasn't nearly as interesting as yours. It definitely wouldn't be a best seller if I wrote the book. Olivia: I'd buy a copy just for the pictures. Steve: Save your money. You never know when you might chip another tooth. Olivia: Oh, don't make me sorry that I told you that. All right, no. I want to hear something and I want it to be something good and personal. Steve: Okay. One time I was dating this girl and she was smoking hot. Olivia: Mm-hmm. Steve: And she wanted to surprise me, so she went to all this trouble to plan this big, elaborate, romantic evening. And everything was going great, but then, um, we had this minor accident... Olivia: What? What happened? Steve: ...Involving a stripper pole. [Laughs] Olivia: Oh, so funny I forgot to laugh. Steve: See? I told you it would make a good story. And you know what? Olivia: What? Steve: The best part was the ending. Olivia: What happened? Steve: I got to massage her tailbone...and it was quite a tailbone. [Both laugh] We have to get back to that party. They're probably looking for us. Olivia: I got to tell you, I'm not in any rush. Steve: Yeah, well, apparently the Captain isn't, either. I thought for sure we'd be heading back to shore by now. Olivia: Well, Patrick probably paid him off to anchor out for another hour or something. Steve: Patrick also knows that I have to be back at the hospital. Morucci couldn't cover my shift for very long. Why don't you come with me? Let's talk to that Captain, all right? Olivia: You will really take any excuse to get out of opening up to me, won't you? Steve: Okay. All right. All right, you want to know...what my most embarrassing moment ever was? Olivia: Yes, I do, and I want it to be something worse than that Dolly Parton thing. Steve: Oh, it will be. I'll give you ever last detail just as soon as we talk to the Captain. Olivia: [Sighs] [SCENE_BREAK] Spinelli: You see? We are not alone. Maxie: No. The catch on the door, bookcase, whatever--it's probably broken. There's no ghost here, Spinelli. This place just needs a carpenter. We're all alone here, unlike Matt, who's probably got Elizabeth crawling all over him right now. We're wasting time. Spinelli: It's almost an invitation. Maxie: It's almost like you're seeing what you want to see and I know why. You're trying to distract me into solving some nonexistent mystery so that I'll get distracted and we'll never make it out to that boat. I mean, this is not the time to make another attempt at romance. Spinelli: Are you saying that there would be an opportune time to present the possibility of-- Maxie: No! No. I'm sorry. I'm not trying to hurt you. I never want to hurt you again. Look, I know that you're focusing on me as some project because you read somewhere that the best way to get your cyber-mojo back is to focus on something else, and that's fine. I'm really happy to help you, but we've already done the romance thing, Spinelli. It just doesn't work out. Spinelli: True, but that was a previous version of me. I feel like I've been upgraded, if you will, and this Jackal 2.0 is far more passionate and more heroic than the prior installation. This man before you is different in ways even I have yet to comprehend. I'm looking for paths of expression, of a challenge of expertise in hopes that possibly going back or...possibly not going back to the cyber-wizardry of before. Maxie: What do you mean, "possibly not"? I mean, are you saying that you don't want to be who you were? [Wind howling] Spinelli: Perhaps we go in. Maybe we find the light. Maybe I can prove that I wasn't making up what I saw. And I guess, yes, it would be a prime opportunity to showcase Jackal 2.0's newfound bravery. Maxie: Spinelli, just don't. Please. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: [Sighs] Whatever happened to Paulie Tesoro? Kate: I have no idea. Sonny: I actually do. Kate: Why'd you ask me, then? Sonny: 'Cause I was just curious, just seeing if you were keeping tabs, you know? 10 to 15 years grand theft auto. He stole an old lady's car. I always told you--that guy's a punk. Kate: Whoa, Sonny. With your extensive rap sheet, you have no right to throw any stones. Sonny: I'm just saying it's a pattern. I mean, we fight and you hook up with a lowlife 'cause, look, over there. That's what I'm talking about. Kate: My kiss with him had nothing to do with you. Sonny: Oh, so, you didn't think that maybe I would walk in here at the right moment, just like with Paulie. And you weren't trying to make me jealous. Kate: Wow. I'm glad to see your ego hasn't changed, Sonny. For the record, I didn't come in here for anything but a drink, and I don't remember dropping any hints to you about my location. Sonny: So your mouth just happened to fall into Coleman's mouth. Kate: You know, whatever happened is none of your business because we are not together anymore. Sonny: Okay. I understand we're not together anymore. But, you know, we have been spending some time together, right? And, you know, we have been enjoying each other, I-I-I think. Kate: Mm, debatable. Sonny: Okay, so then I send you flowers, right? And what happens? What happens? You do what you always did. I get close and you leave town. Kate: My trip had nothing to do with you. I have a life. Sonny: Business? Kate: Why do you care? Sonny: Because you care. Because I can see it in your eyes. It's that same look you had back in the day, you know? You know what that look tells me? That you want me. Kate: Not if you were the last man on earth. Coleman: [Chuckles] She said that to me before, too, man. [SCENE_BREAK] Spinelli: What's preventing you from the possibility of another great adventure? Maxie: Time, a party, no means to get there, a drunk mother of three going for number four with my boyfriend. You need me to go on? I mean, who knows where that tunnel leads or how far it goes or how long it would take us to get there. Come on, I'm so over it, Spinelli. I don't have time and I'm not in the mood for another sewer debacle. Spinelli: It does appear to be aboveground. Maxie: [Sighs] Well, yeah, I mean, this part of it, maybe. But for all we know, it could lead straight down to hell, and since I'm headed there anyway, I think I'd probably like to delay my visit. [Sighs] Now...we need to focus. Gas--garden shed behind the kitchen. And no more talk about floating lights unless they're floating on the water and they're a party boat. Now let's go. [SCENE_BREAK] Johnny: [Sighs] [SCENE_BREAK] Robin: Room service. Patrick? [Door closes] [Water running] Robin: Patrick? Patrick? [Screams, glass shatters] [Muffled screams] [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: I'm just--it's a shame that if you wanted me all this time and you didn't say anything. Kate: A shame? Sonny: Yeah, just think of all the fun we could have been having. Kate: Where would we have this fun, Sonny? In your house? In the bed that you shared with your wife? Seems a little crowded to me. Where would Brenda fit in this fantasy? Sonny: I loved Brenda more than anything and she loved me, but--or the idea of me. She couldn't deal with certain things and she left. Now, I got to learn from that. Kate: Have you learned from that? Sonny: Well, I-I-I can't keep holding on to people because I end up getting hurt, but worse than that, they end up getting hurt and they don't deserve that. Kate: That's because you get them to love you, and they're so busy trying to save you that they don't see everything around you and the darkness inside you. They're trying to love you into a better life. Sonny: Like you did. Kate: No. No. I tried. Look where it got me. Sonny: You know what? Maybe you were right to run away all those years ago. Kate: Yeah, I don't know about that anymore. We might have had something for a while, but I'm sure I would have become dissatisfied. Sonny: With my life? Kate: With mine. Sonny: But we're different, you know? I mean, we're not the s-- Kate: No. Please. Sonny: I was just touching your ring. Why are you always fighting this? Kate: Because, Sonny, I care about you, but this is not an invitation, all right? I know better than to go around picking up hot coals. Sonny: But you still like to get close to the fire, and if you stay long enough, you build tolerance. The heat starts to feel real good. And then it cools down and you want it to get hotter. Hey. I'll see you later, okay? Kate: Okay. Coleman: Need a little ice over there? [SCENE_BREAK] Spinelli: This should do the trick. Probably just enough to get us where we need to go. Maxie: Which would be to the party boat, right? It better be. I can only imagine what that skank Elizabeth's up to right about now. Spinelli: Do you desire me to go on board, as well? Maxie: Oh, no. No, you can just drop me off and then go home. But thanks. I really appreciate it. It was really sweet of you. Spinelli: So maybe another time? Maxie: Maybe. And only maybe. And only if you get me back to the party boat and you stop talking about wispy things and lights and evil forces. Spinelli: [Chuckles] [SCENE_BREAK] Both: Hello?! Olivia: Hey! Captain! Anybody home? Hello? Steve: Hello?! Olivia: Ohh, the skipper is nowhere to be found. Maybe we ought to check Ginger's stateroom, huh? Steve: You know what? I've actually always been partial to Mary Ann. Olivia: Is that right? Steve: Yeah. You, uh--you kind of resemble her in a way, you know? Olivia: Should I take that as a compliment? Steve: Oh, Mary Ann was hot. Olivia: Yeah, well, thank you very much, Professor. Steve: Well, he obviously isn't here. Olivia: Obviously. Steve: We should go look for him. This boat's not very big. Olivia: Well, maybe he wanted a little private time with his First Mate and maybe we should just accept defeat and follow his lead. [Engine sputtering] Steve: You know what? I can do that. I can do that, yeah. Olivia: Wait a second. Wait a second. Wait a second. Steve: Why? What's wrong? Olivia: This engine. This is not right. [SCENE_BREAK] Robin: [Breathing heavily] Lisa: Hi. I'm glad you could join us. Robin: Patrick! Patrick! God, what did you do to him? Lisa: You did it. You both did. This and what comes next.
