Alexis prevents Helena from doing the unthinkable. Helena then turns the table on Alexis, taking her hostage and holding a dagger at her throat. Alexis suffers a minor wound when she escapes from Helena's grip and falls into Ric's arms. Ric is determined to capture Helena and send her to prison for the rest of her life. Courtney learns that Jason threatened Durant in order to protect her and later tells Carly about Durant's threats. Carly appeals to Steven to find proof that Jason didn't shoot Durant. Steven finds evidence of Jason's innocence but Durant orders him to keep quiet for the time being. Sonny refuses to allow Carly to ask for Durant's help. Sonny and Jason, as well as Durant and Steven, suspect that Alcazar hired Lana to shoot Durant and frame Jason. Jax gives Courtney an ultimatum and later leaves for Bermuda without her. Luke and Skye offer to break Faith out of Pentonville in exchange for her confessing to killing Ross Duncan.
Faith: Give me one good reason why I shouldn't send Skye back to her cell permanently. Luke: You touch that alarm bell and you're going to be a ward of the state till you're a wizened old hag. Faith: Well, that's an attractive image. Luke: But if you work with us, I'll get you out of here. You'll be free. Free! Faith: Work with you how? [SCENE_BREAK] Jax: You just couldn't resist asking, could you? No matter how close you and I seem to get, in the end it's always about Jason. Courtney: Jason was framed. Jax: Or so you believe. Courtney: What, Jax, he's being accused of a crime he didn't commit. Just because I think that's wrong doesn't mean my whole life is about Jason. Mac: All right, Jax, let's go. I'll take you downstairs and process your release. Jax: See you later. [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: I want my lawyer, Ric. Ric: Yeah, well, you're going to need one to get out of here. We got an eyewitness -- the hotel maid at John Durant's hotel. She overheard you promise to kill Durant if he laid a finger on Courtney. [SCENE_BREAK] [Door opens] John: Carly? Sonny: I'm sorry, Carly's not here at the moment. John: Let me guess -- you're here to finish what you started -- see me dead. [SCENE_BREAK] Emily: You know, the angels took care of us this week, Kristina. Yes, they did. They helped both of us get better. And we're so blessed. You know that? And pretty soon we're going to have something else to celebrate. Nikolas and I are going to get married in front of everyone we love. And you're going to be there, too, in a beautiful dress, throwing rose petals down the aisle. And the priest is going to pronounce us man and wife, and Nikolas and I will kiss and we'll all live happily ever after. Kristina: Flowers. Emily: Yeah. Alexis: Oh, my God. Alexis: Emily, go, get her out of here. Helena: Oh, you think you can stop me, Natasha, the coward? You watched me kill your mother. Alexis: I was just a little girl then. Helena: You were pathetic. Alexis: I'm not a little girl now, and I'm going to be damned if I'm going to sit and watch you butcher anybody else again. Helena: Oh, you are damned, Natasha. You were damned the moment you were born, and your mother was damned the instant that she set sights on my husband. You're doomed to watch history repeat itself -- Alexis: History is not going to repeat itself because you are going to be stopped now; I'm going to make you pay now for what you did to my mother. Helena: Oh, your mother deserved it. Alexis: My mother deserved to be loved, and my mother was loved by your husband. Helena: Oh, how dare you. How dare you! Mikkos was my husband. He had me! Alexis: Mikkos hated you. Helena: Oh, he despised you. Your presence in our home was intolerable. Alexis: Mikkos hated you, Helena. Everybody hates you, Helena. Nobody will love you. Nobody will -- Nikolas: Get -- [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: You'll consent to be the subject of an exhaustive psychiatric study. Faith: Conducted by Dr. Luke and his four-eyed sidekick. Luke: Don't worry about that. Herr von Makerand himself couldn't forge documents better than I've got for Dr. Shakeleman. Faith: Ok, why am I consenting to this bogus study? Skye: Because you're a deeply disturbed sociopath? Faith: Oh, gee, when you put it that way -- Luke: In the course of the study, you will recover repressed memories. Faith: In case you haven't noticed, I am not exactly the repressed type. Luke: You will remember that you had a cop on the take who was getting greedy. You followed him to the lake house. You waited until Skye was unconscious, and then you snuffed the unfortunate Detective Duncan. Faith: Hmm. You do have a twisted imagination, and I like that in a man, Luke. Luke: You admitted to me months ago that Detective Duncan was on your payroll. Skye: Ahem. Why did Faith frame me? Luke: Because you're a rival. Missy here doesn't take lightly to the competition, so she saw a chance to get rid of the greedy cop and take care of you in the bargain. Faith: Ok, you're leaving out a very important detail. What's in it for me? Luke: Ah, of course. Once you've cleared Skye's name, we'll find the real murderer and exonerate you. Faith: Mm-hmm. Oh, bully for you. Luke: So you'll go along with it? Faith: No, not on your life. But as a thank-you for my good laugh of the week, I won't turn your girlfriend in. Luke: Did I forget to mention the best part of this? Faith: Oh, stop. You're really pushing it here. I am not turning a 10-year stint into a lethal injection, ok, not even for you, so you can just put that lopsided grin away. Luke: The best part of the deal is once her name is clear we'll bust you out of here. Now, does that sound good to everybody? Everybody like that? Huh? [SCENE_BREAK] Ric: The maid stated that Durant threatened to ruin Courtney's reputation and even send her to prison by indicting her for laundering mob money through her foundation. Now, I know you care about Courtney, and so you dealt with it the only you knew how in order to protect her, so you shot him. A little sloppy this time, though. Your characteristic professionalism kind of went right out the window. That is what happened, isn't it, Jason, huh? I mean, Durant pushed your buttons by threatening Courtney, right? Jason: I'm not going to talk without my lawyer. Ric: Ok. Well, Justus is good. I'm sure he can prove this was a crime of passion, should get your sentence knocked down to 20 years. Officer, take Mr. Morgan here into Interrogation One. Courtney: So, is it true? Did you shoot Durant to protect me? Jason: No, but I would have. [SCENE_BREAK] Lorenzo: Your reputation is clearly undeserved. You are practically an amateur. Lana: What are you talking about? I framed Jason Morgan for Durant's murder. Lorenzo: Durant isn't dead. He's expected to survive. And you will get your final payment when you tie up loose ends. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: I'm a coffee importer, not an assassin. John: All right, that's right, that's right, coffee importer -- that's -- your hands are clean, right, yeah. You have Jason Morgan execute your enemies for you. Sonny: Are you my enemy? John: No. Sonny: No? John: I'm your father-in-law. Sonny: Hmm. John: I also happen to be a federal prosecutor. Makes an awkward situation for you, doesn't it? Sonny: No, I've dealt with worse. John: I care about Carly. I wouldn't do anything to hurt her. Sonny: Yeah, I wouldn't either. That's why I didn't shoot you. I love my wife too much to have her father assassinated, especially if she could have been hit by the bullet. John: Jason Morgan is too good a shot for that. Sonny: You see, if you died, Carly would grieve. I don't like to see my wife in pain, and neither do my sons. John: That's right. You pride yourself on being the family man, don't you? Sonny: Oh, well, you've been playing that card pretty heavily lately. John: Jason Morgan threatened my life not two hours before I was shot. They found the man with the gun in his hand. Now, if he was acting without your knowledge, all the better. I won't have to testify against my son-in-law. Sonny: The gunman's still out there. So is the money man who commissioned him. If I were you, I'd take a closer look at the motives of your friends and your associates. John: If I was dead right now, how would you feel? Would you be sad for Carly or relieved for yourself? Sonny: You're just an inconvenience, Mr. Durant. Aside from that, I have no feelings for you at all. [Knock on door] Carly: Sonny. Sonny: Hey. John: Hey, Carly, come on in. Your husband and I were just discussing the identity of my would-be assassin. [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: I'm working out the details of your escape even as we speak. Skye: Luke's brilliant at this kind of thing. Luke: Thank you, Ava! Faith: I'm still not convinced. Skye: Look, for some mystifying reason, Luke really likes you, which means you got nothing to worry about. Faith: Yeah, well, he likes you better, and he still let you get sentenced to Pentonville for decades. Luke: No, no, no. No, no, no. That was because of some unforeseen circumstances. Skye: He still showed up in plenty of time to spare me a return trip to prison. Faith: Hmm. Well, he took his sweet time, and if he pulls that with me, I'm going to be released in a body bag. Luke: I'm your shrink, Schatz. I have clout. I have a lot of clout in psychiatric circles. Faith: Ok. So you're just going to mosey on up to the warden and say, "Release this murderess," and he's going to say, "Sure, no problem. When do you want her?" Luke: First, I will recommend that you be transferred to a facility for the criminally insane -- which we all agree she is. Then Dr. Shakeleman and -- [Luke speaks foreign language] Luke: Ava, will accompany you in the "wan." Skye: The what? Luke: The "wan" -- the van, the van. And we'll bust you out en route. Faith: Hmm. Hmm. Not bad. But are they going to believe that you're the shrink? Luke: I'm telling you, my credentials are impeccable. I mean, they got us in here, didn't they? Faith: Ok. Luke: Great. Great. Faith: I will need a few concessions if I'm going to admit to a murder that I didn't commit. Luke: How few? Faith: Well, I'll need a passport with a new identity, a first-class ticket to somewhere tropical, $1 million in an offshore account, and Justus waiting for me to step off the plane safely. Luke: I assume these points are negotiable. Faith: You assume wrong. So, you in or you out? [SCENE_BREAK] Mac: That's it for the paperwork, Jax. Jax, you're free to go. Jax: Well, it appears my dinner date is otherwise engaged. Mac: Yeah, a hotel maid overheard Jason talking to John Durant. It seems Durant provoked Jason by threatening Courtney. Jax: If you're here to support Jason, I think you might be a little late. Courtney: You were defending me. That's why the police brought you in here? Jason: I know. I can handle this. Courtney: But, Jason, Carly's dad used me to provoke you, and now you're in all this trouble -- Jason: Courtney, all you have to do is just run your foundation and live your life. That's what you wanted. That's all I want for you. Courtney: I'm not just going to stand by while you go to prison. Jason: You want to help me? Just hold on to the life that you've made. Jax: Well, I've been released. You still want to go to Bermuda? Courtney: I'm not sure. I -- Jax: You're worried about Jason? Courtney: Look, Jax, I'll meet you later, ok? There's something that I have to deal with before we take off. [SCENE_BREAK] John: Regardless of our differences, I have no doubt that your husband loves you. Carly: Well, I know that, and I could have told you. John: You did. But as I'm learning, fathers are naturally suspicious of the men in their daughters' lives. Carly: You have nothing to worry about. John: I know. I have no doubt that not only does Sonny love you; he respects the fact that you love me. And he could no more hurt me than I hurt him. Sonny: I'm so glad that we understand each other. I'm going to go ahead and go home. Carly: Ok. Sonny: Ok? Carly: Tell Michael that I'll be there soon, ok? Sonny: All right. John: Bye. Sonny: Bye. Carly: How are you feeling? John: Better every time I see you. Carly, there's nothing in this world I would do to jeopardize our relationship. [SCENE_BREAK] Nikolas: Let her go. Helena: Stay back. Nikolas: You won't get away with this. You know that. Helena: Oh, you underestimate me. But then, I don't blame you. I've been too lenient too long. Nikolas: You are insane. Helena: That is not the best strategy for saving your auntie's life. Nikolas: Hurt Alexis or Emily and I'll kill you. Helena: Not before I slit her throat. Now, if you want to give her a few more hours, you will step aside and let us pass. Nikolas: You're not leaving here with her. Helena: All right, Nikolas. Have it your way. Wise decision. Now, you'll be even wiser if you don't give me another reason to kill my wretched stepchild. Stay where you are. [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: Is that all right? John: Yeah -- ah -- that's good, that's good. Carly: Ok, ok. John: Oh. Carly: There we go. John: I could get used to this. Carly: Well, I'm sorry, but once you're well, you are on your own. John: Well, then, I guess I better milk this hospital stay for all it's worth. Carly, I have one favor to ask. Carly: Ok, one more, then I'm done. John: All right, but this is a really big one. It's going to test your loyalty. Carly: John, listen, I'm not discussing Sonny or his business. John: This has nothing to do with business and everything to do with my secret vice. Can I trust you? Carly: Yeah. John: I need you to go to the nearest convenience store and smuggle me two bags of barbecue potato chips. Do you think you can handle that? Carly: You want spicy, sweet and spicy, or jalapeno? John: Hmm. Sweet and spicy. I don't think I'm ready for jalapeno yet. Carly: Oh. All right. You want anything else while I'm there? You want pretzels, doughnuts, candy, cookies -- John: You share my fondness for nonnutritional junk food, don't you? Carly: Hmm, yes, I do. John: I know that. [Knock on door] Carly: Hey. Courtney: Carly -- Carly: Courtney, hey. Come on in. Come here. I want you to meet my father. This is John Durant. John, this is Courtney. She's my best friend and it's my sister-in-law. John: Hey. Courtney: Hi. Can I have a word with you real quick? Carly: Yeah, sure. Courtney: Thanks. Carly: I'll be back. Courtney: They've taken Jason back into custody for shooting your father. Carly: I thought they didn't have enough evidence. Courtney: Yeah, well, some maid said that she heard Jason threaten Durant. Carly: What? Courtney: Look, Durant wanted Jason to stop warning you away from him, so he pretty much told Jason if he didn't back off he was going to ruin my foundation. Carly: Wait. Are you sure about all this? Courtney: Yeah, well, Jason's pretty much confirmed it, Carly. Anyway, he lost his temper. He threatened to kill Durant. Now the police -- they're saying that that shows premeditation. But they're wrong, Carly. Jason didn't shoot Durant. Carly: No, I know, I know, I know. Courtney: Ok, well, he was framed, so can you -- can you convince your father to clear Jason's name and get him released? [SCENE_BREAK] Jason: Sam -- Sam: No, Jason, don't start in again. I'm not going to sit around doing nothing when you've been arrested for something you didn't do. Jason: We have been over this. The cops have a strong case. Sam: Yeah, I know, and then the only thing I can do for you is go home and take care of myself and the baby, right? No, wrong. It is my turn to look after you. I called Justus to get you released. Jason: Yeah, well, I might not get released. Not only was the gun in my hand, now they have some hotel maid that just stepped forward. The case against me could go all the way to trial. Sam: Ok, well, at least you'll be out on bail, right? Jason: Yeah, Justus is going to push for bail, but he may not get it, Sam. You need to plan on, you know, being alone for a while. You got to finish getting ready for this baby, ok? Go ahead, hire the nanny. I'll talk to my sister if you -- Sam: Talk to your sister? No, Jason, you are going to be there with me when this baby is born. That's what we planned, and that is what's going to happen. Jason: Yeah, well, Ric may have other ideas. Sam: Ok, well, then you need to prove you're innocent. So think back. Who was at the conference when the shooting started? Was there anyone close enough to Durant that could have shot him? Anyone come in after it started? Sonny: Sam, Sam -- what are you, Jason's lawyer now? [SCENE_BREAK] Nikolas: Let her go. Helena: I am perilously close to losing my temper, Nikolas. Now, keep pushing me and I will end your auntie's pathetic life. Do you want that on your conscience for the rest of your life? Nikolas: You can't get away with this. You know that. Helena: Oh, you have been consorting with weaklings too long, Nikolas. You've forgotten what it means to be a Cassadine; to defy and have the strength to defy the laws of your inferiors. Nikolas: Really? Those inferiors will send you to prison. Helena: Oh, I've gotten away with murder before, and I'll get away with it again. I think this time it will be a distinct pleasure. Nikolas: You're sick. Helena: Oh, and then there's your beloved little Emily. How unfortunate she won't live long enough to marry the Cassadine prince. Clear the elevator! Now! Ric: Ms. Cassadine, I know you're not stupid. You know your only hope is to let her go. Helena: Oh, hope? Hope is overrated. Ric: All right. At least let me arrange to clear out the main entrance. I mean, I don't want you to cause a panic -- Nikolas: The door's closing. Ric: Take the stairs. It's ok. Emily: Your mommy's fine, Kristina. Nikolas went to get her, and she'll be back any minute, ok? Nikolas: Hey. Alexis is safe, fine. Hey, Kristina, hey. Listen, your mommy's with the doctors, ok, but she's ok. She's all right. There you go. She asked me to give you that and to tell you that she'll be here soon to take you home, all right? Ok? Emily: What about Helena? Nikolas: She got away. Emily: Oh, God. You know, she's coming after us through the people we love, and we can't let that happen, Nikolas. You know, we're the ones who've chosen to defy her. Our friends and families shouldn't have to pay for it. Nikolas: I love you. Emily: I love you, too. But we can't get married if it means others are going to be hurt. [SCENE_BREAK] Jax: Hey, hey. I called the restaurant and the hotel. I told them that we'd be a little late, so unfortunately, we'll miss the Bermuda sunset, but we can still dine under the stars. Courtney: Jax -- Jax: Don't tell me that you're having second thoughts. Courtney: Look, it's not a good time to leave. Jax: Because Jason got arrested again? Courtney: Look, the cops are convinced that he did it. The evidence is stacked up against him. Jax: You divorced him -- you divorced him a year ago, ok? Don't get pulled back into this. Ok, I'm offering you a chance to get away. Take it. Courtney: Jax, he threatened Durant because Durant threatened me. Jax: Well, he probably still loves you, you know, to the limited degree that he's capable. Courtney: You have no idea what he is or isn't capable of. Jax: Look, if he truly loved you -- listen to me -- if he truly loved you, then he would value your well-being over his and he would tell you to stay out of this mess. Courtney: He did. Jax: Well, then, trust his judgment if you can't trust mine. My pilot and I will leave at 8:00, and I hope that you can make it. It's up to you. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: You got knocked over last night. You could have lost the baby. Sam: I didn't. Sonny: All I'm saying is you should be home resting, but you're at the PCPD. You're getting exhausted. You're overdoing it. Sam: Well, has it even occurred to you to ask me if I'm tired, Sonny? I'm not tired. Sonny: Well, I come in here, you're arguing with Jason -- Sam: You're the one arguing right now. Sonny: I'm not really arguing. I'm just kind of -- Jason: Sam, you guys, please. Will you just do me a favor and go home? Sam: Jason -- Jason: Sam, I don't want to have to worry about you and the baby, ok? I would feel a lot better -- Sam: I am ok. I am ok, honest. Please. Jason: All right, then, you know what? Sonny and I have to talk business. Sam: Ok. Sonny: You should have sent her home -- I mean -- Jason: Sonny, Sonny, I've tried. Sonny: Oh, man. Jason: She's a lot alone. She doesn't like taking orders. Sonny: Yeah, well, she should be taking care of herself, and then she's here and -- I don't know. Jason: If things don't go my way on this, you're the only one she's going to be able to count on. Sonny: Unless you get released. Jason: With what they've got on me? Sonny: I tell you what, whoever framed you for shooting Durant did a hell of a job. [SCENE_BREAK] Lana: Hello, John. [SCENE_BREAK] Ric: I put out an A.P.B. on Helena. We've cordoned off the hospital. We've covered all the entrances and the exits. The airports are covered, the bus and train stations. We -- Alexis: It's unbelievable. She's long gone by now. Ric: Look, look, we're going to find her. The important thing is, are you ok? Alexis: If you didn't do what you did, my daughter would be motherless at this point. Ric: Alexis, you are a strong and very, very brave woman, but you had a knife at your throat, ok? You remained calm. You remained in control. Alexis: That's because I was frozen in terror. I felt the same way I did when I was 8 years old. Ric: Yeah, but this time you acted and you put yourself in harm's way. You put your life on the line for Emily. Alexis: And you put your life on the life for me. Thank you. [SCENE_BREAK] Skye: Oh, that woman is some piece of work. You know that? $1 million? A fake passport? Plus a one-way ticket to paradise? I mean, really, what does Faith think she is? Luke: That piece of work has got your whole future in her hands. Skye: Oh, please, we don't need her. Luke: You got another idea? Skye: Yeah, I do. Why should we spend another winter in this miserable bad- luck town, huh? Even if I weren't an escaped convict and trying to clear my name, tell me, what exactly is so delightful about the city of Port Charles? How about you? Is this casino your idea of paradise? Luke: Well, no, but we made a go of it. You know, it paid its way. We've had some fun. Skye: You know, we can go another place and make a brand-new start. Luke: You mean like a floating casino off the coast of Spain? Near Ibiza? Skye: Yeah, yeah, yeah, the Mediterranean, the South Seas -- anyplace you want. Just someplace where we can go and forget about the past and make a fresh start. Luke: You got yourself a deal, Blaze. Let's blow this pop stand and never come back. [SCENE_BREAK] Steven: You had me paged? Carly: Yeah. Hey, thanks for coming so quickly. I wanted to ask you something. I was curious about -- Steven: No, wait. Hold everything. Is that contraband? Carly: It's a snack or two. Steven: Well, I have to say, as your father's doctor, I'm shocked and appalled. Carly: Ok, well, if I were in I.C.U., I would hope that someone would smuggle me in some potato chips, too. Steven: Ok, since you put it that way, I'll make an exception this time. So did you page me for my medical opinion on empty calories? Carly: No. Actually, Jason's been arrested again. And there was a maid at my father's hotel who claims that she overheard Jason threaten my father. She also claims that my father threatened to incriminate Courtney in some false manner. Steven: Really? Carly: Come on, Steven. Assure me that my father wouldn't do that. Tell me that the maid must have misunderstood. Come on. Steven: John is capable of threatening an innocent, pressuring someone he thinks is guilty. Carly: Well, he better not have threatened Courtney. There's no way Jason did this. Steven: I see you got a lot of faith in him. Carly: Yeah, I do. Steven: Well, I'm not sure I can help you. Carly: Well, you're a top forensic specialist, right, so why don't you use your skills to figure out who really did shoot my father? [SCENE_BREAK] John: You don't strike me as the Florence Nightingale type. Lana: You don't strike me as the wounded hero. Although, I must admit I enjoy the thought of you in any bed. John: I saw you at the press conference. How'd your article turn out? Lana: More exciting than I'd expected. Ahem. John: I'd imagine. I saw you right there in the front row. You didn't happen to see the shooter, did you? Lana: No, although I wish I had. That would have been quite a scoop. I gather the police have an open-and-shut case with Jason Morgan, though. John: Yeah, yeah. Although I'm -- I'm a little surprised. Lana: He works for Sonny Corinthos. You're a top federal prosecutor, John. He must have thought that you were a threat to his operations. John: Yeah. I'm also a threat to Lorenzo Alcazar, and honestly, he's the one I thought might try an assassination attempt. You know, usually I'm dead on about these things. I guess I was wrong this time, huh? [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Durant was putting the screws to Alcazar. So he wanted to take out Durant and incriminate me. He probably hired a shooter from out of town. That's his usual M.O. Jason: I remember seeing Alcazar at the press conference, and he was trying to make his way up to the front just before the shot was fired. Sonny: Probably freaked when he saw Carly go to the podium. Couldn't stop the shooter in time. Jason: So the shooter was close. Sonny: A reporter, maybe? Jason: A reporter -- you know what? I remember seeing this blond up to my left. And I saw her with Alcazar before. Sonny: Where? Jason: Outside of Kelly's the morning of the shooting. Sonny: So he hired the blond to shoot Durant and plant the gun on you. Jason: Now all we have to do is prove it. [SCENE_BREAK] Alexis: I'm so happy to see you. And I love you. I really love you. Nikolas: Helena won't threaten you again. We've decided to postpone our wedding. Alexis: No, you're not going to do that. Nikolas: We have to stop her, Alexis. Alexis: No. We will stop her. She's not going to win. Nikolas: Look, I've never seen her like this before. I mean, she has not even made an attempt to hide what she's doing. Alexis: I'm not afraid of her. Ric: Listen, I put an A.P.B. out on Helena, not just for assaulting Alexis and Emily tonight, but also for murder. Nikolas: Whose murder? Ric: Mary Bishop's. Look, I owe you both an apology. After seeing Helena tonight, I realize how homicidal she really is. And when we do find her, I'm going to hold her without bail while I put a case together. She obviously is willing to do anything she can to keep the two of you from getting married. I suspect she did kill Mary and, subsequently, Nurse Harris so that she could cover her tracks and keep Emily out of your life. Nikolas: Unfortunately, we have no proof, Ric. Ric: Don't worry about it. I'll find it. When I do, I'm going to make sure that Helena goes away for the rest of her life. [SCENE_BREAK] Helena: The police are searching for me. I have to leave the country tonight. Man: The plane's ready and waiting, Mrs. Cassadine. Helena: I'll be there shortly. First, I have to settle some unfinished family business. [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: Ready to roll? Skye: Yeah. I was just going to write a little goodbye note to Alan. Luke: Oh, well, make it fast. I made reservations on the first flight out of the country. Skye: What, don't you want to write any goodbye notes to Lulu and Lucky? Luke: Saying what, "Goodbye forever"? Skye: Well, it's not forever. Is it? Luke: Well, we can't come back. Once we're gone, the real killer will be safe. Skye: Oh. Yeah, I guess we can't really expect them to come forward and confess. Luke: No. No. But what do we care, you know? We'll be out of here. I just want to start fresh. I got no regrets. I see no reason for us to ever return to this mini hellhole. Skye: Hey, you know what? Since when have I been a quitter? Luke: Well, you know what? I think quitting has gotten a bad rap. Skye: No, Luke, listen to me. I have battled a lot of demons in my life, and I have always come out on top. There's no way I'm walking away from this. I am Skye Chandler Quartermaine, damn it, and I am innocent, and I am going to prove it. So tell me, are you in or are you out? Luke: I'm in. Oh, I'm so in. Ok, now, Faith wants a million bucks for her fake confession. I got $32.70. Skye: Oh. Luke: Can you make up the difference? Skye: Well, let's see. That would be -- Luke: How much would that be? Skye: Well, $999,967.30. Luke: That's chump change. We can get that. Skye: Yeah. [SCENE_BREAK] Jax: Go ahead and take off. It appears I'll be traveling alone. [SCENE_BREAK] Sam: No, it's not her heartbeat. Jason: What? Sam: It's hiccups. Jason: Hiccups? Sam: Yeah. Jason: Are you uncomfortable? Sam: No. No, not at all. I'm actually -- I'm kind of enjoying it. Jason: Ok. Sam: You better get used to seeing me around here, because if you don't get out on bail, I'm going to be visiting a lot. Jason: I might be out sooner than I expected. Sam: What? Did you find out who the shooter is? Jason: Well, Sonny and I have a theory, but -- Sam: "But"? What is it? Jason: All right, maybe I'll tell you tomorrow if you go home and get some rest. [SCENE_BREAK] Steven: Jason Morgan is not the shooter. John: How do you know? Steven: Carly convinced me to run another forensics test. There's a latent print underneath Morgan's on the weapon. Now, since we found no powder residue on Morgan's hands, I think we can assume that the latent print belongs to the shooter. John: Could the prints belong to a woman? Steven: Yeah, it's possible. Why? John: I had a very hot date with a very hot blond. She said she was a reporter. I think she was hired by Lorenzo Alcazar to take me out. She said her name was Lana James. Steven: I'm going to turn this evidence over to the PCPD. John: Not yet. Steven: Why wait? John: I want them to hold Morgan a little longer. Steven: Yeah. Carly's pretty anxious to have him released. John: I know. And when she asks for my help, I'll give it to her. Then I'll be her hero and one step closer to winning her trust. [SCENE_BREAK] Sonny: Hey. Carly: Hey. Sonny: Jason's still in custody. How are you? Carly: What? Sonny: Yeah. Carly: Well, we can't leave him in lockup. What -- Sonny, maybe I should just ask John to exonerate him. Sonny: There's no need. I'm working on getting him released. Carly: If I ask my father, it could go quicker. Sonny: No. I'm going to do this my way. Jason's going to beat this without owing Durant any favors. [NEXT_ON] Ric: Tell us where Helena is, or you can go to prison in her place. Alexis: She's not going to risk coming at me this soon again. Carly: By asking, it would be giving him a chance to prove himself. John: I may want something in return. Sonny: He will get caught.
