Luke is happy to see Skye and wants some alone time with her. Tracy isn't thrilled to see Skye. Dante grills Kiefer about Kristina. Diane is worried because Sonny's outburst made it obvious to the jury how he felt about Claudia. Maya goes to the Spenser house and runs into Lucky outside. Maya tells Lucky she's in medical school and staying with the Q's. Lucky gives her a friendly warning about Edward. Dante and Lucky are both suspicious of Kiefer. Robin gets called as a witness in the trial. The second paternity test says Nikolas is the baby's father. Later, Helena pays off the GH employee for helping her change the independent lab results. Kate wonders if Olivia feels "compassion" for Sonny. Olivia says, "Sonny's crossed a line" and is "a gangster." Johnny is back on the stand and questioned by Claire. Johnny says by the time he got to the birthday party, Sonny had learned Claudia was responsible for Michael's shooting. Johnny says he went to the party to "warn" Claudia. Dante and Lucky question Kiefer after Lucky gets some info on the party he attended the night of the beating. Tracy brings Jax to the casino to interrupt Luke's visit with Skye. Robin does her best on the stand to make Sonny look good. Claire asks Robin what Sonny said to Claudia in his toast at the party. At first, Robin hesitates but then tells the truth about what was said. Robin admits Sonny called Claudia "a faithless bitch." Jason tells Carly only she can turn the trial "around."
Maya: Do you know how to find the people who used to live here? Lucky: Yeah. I used to live here. I'm Lucky Spencer. Maya: Maya Ward. Mary Mae Ward was my great grandmother. Lucky: Really? That's crazy! Yeah, your family was like a really important part of my childhood. I loved Mary Mae. Maya: Everybody did. Lucky: So, um, what are you doing in Port Charles? Maya: Great Grandpa Quartermaine didn't exactly give me a choice. [SCENE_BREAK] Kiefer: I thought you said that when the charges were dropped, everybody would stop harassing you. Kristina: No one's harassing me. Dante: It takes a while to get over something like what Kristina went through. Scars are a lot deeper than what you can see on the surface. Kiefer: No, I know. It just doesn't really help if the cops keep bringing it up, you know? Dante: I thought we already established I'm not just a cop, I'm her brother. I'm going to do everything within my power to make sure she never goes through what she's going through right now, ever again. So I can get the facts straight. Well, you can help me, Kiefer. I mean, you're her boyfriend, you were around right? Kiefer: No, I was at a party. Dante: Oh. But Kristina was supposed to be with you. Well, that sounds like as good a place as any to start. [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: Oh, blaze. Skye: Oh, Luke, it's been much too long. Oh, Tracy. You haven't changed. Tracy: Nor have you. Run out of available men? Ethan: Who do we have here? Tracy: The reason your father tried to push me out a porthole! Skye: Your father? Luke, you devil! He's adorable. [Luke and Ethan chuckle] [SCENE_BREAK] Diane: Your outburst in court yesterday did catastrophic damage-- Sonny: Claire got Johnny to bait me! Diane: And you played right into her hands! Jason: Diane. What's the plan for damage control? Diane: I'm a lawyer, Jason. I'm not a magician. He showed the jury exactly how much he hates Claudia, wanted to see her dead. Sonny: Claudia got Michael shot! Diane: Sonny, she's not on trial here! You are! If things keep going the way they're going, Claire's going to make a case for premeditated murder, and that is a life sentence, Sonny. [SCENE_BREAK] Ethan: Well, I've heard so much about you, Skye. Can I get you something? Luke: A little privacy would be nice. Ethan: Hey, come on, Dad, we were just getting to know each other. Skye: Oh, and this is where the resemblance ends. Luke: Yeah, I suppose he gets his manners from his mother. Tracy: Holly Sutton, in case you care. Skye: Oh. I think it's wonderful you two found each other. I, myself, went on a search for my birth parents. I wasn't as successful, but I did find a different kind of family. Luke: Yeah. She found me. Tracy: Yeah, then she left you for a psychopathic gangster. Luke: Okay, well, it would be nice if you all went away. We've got a lot to catch up on. Tracy: You're absolutely right about that. So, tell me... what have you been up to? [SCENE_BREAK] Kiefer: K and I were supposed to go to some party with a couple Harvard guys. Kristina: Kiefer's going to Harvard in the fall. He's going to be a lawyer. Kiefer: I told her how important it was to make a good impression. Dante: But Kristina never made it to the party. Kristina: No. Kiefer: No, K canceled last minute. She lied to me because of Ethan. Look what happened. Dante: Well, that doesn't mean she deserved to get attacked. Kiefer: No, I never said she did. It's just, you know, if Ethan hadn't sent the wrong signals and messed up her thinking, K never would have ditched me to be with him. Kristina: Kiefer's right. Dante: No. No, he's not. Kiefer: Look, K got the charges dropped so she could forget about what happened. You know, we both just want to go back to the way things were. Right? Kristina: Mm-hmm. Kiefer: I'll call you later. See you, Officer. Dante: Yeah. You remember that conversation we had outside, back before we knew we were brother and sister, for some reason you felt comfortable enough to talk to me? Kristina: You were nice. Dante: You were talking about guys that use girls for sex. You were talking about Kiefer. [SCENE_BREAK] Maya: So, um, why doesn't anybody live here now? Or is it none of my business? Lucky: No, no, it's all right. My parents aren't together anymore. My mom's in Europe. Dad never liked it that much. It's a little heavy on the white picket fence. Not enough danger for him. I was the last one to live here. Maya: But no more? Lucky: There's too many ghosts. I wanted to look forwards, not backwards. Maya: Funny you should say that about ghosts. I can feel Great Grandma Mae Mae. [Chuckles] I'm weird, right? Lucky: Hmm. No. My mom always told me that she could feel your family's presence the first time she came up the front walk. You're staying with the Quartermaines, aren't you? Maya: I hated asking Edward for help. But I'm a second year med student, you know. With a little sister to support. Lucky: And let me guess, he said he'd be happy to help as long as you moved in. Maya: It's okay. You know, I think I have Edward pretty much figured out. I could use a second opinion. Lucky: Wow, Edward Quartermaine. Where do you start? He's not as gruff as he comes off. He's got a soft spot in his heart for family. But he's an ends justifies the means kind of guy, so the more Edward loves you, the less you can trust him. If that makes any sense. Maya: Yeah. I was afraid of that. [Cell phone rings] Maya: Hey, thanks for the tour, Lucky. And the insight. Lucky: Yeah, all right, I'll see you around. Maya: See ya. [Ring] Lucky: What's up? Dante: Hey. I need you to meet me at Kelly's. Lucky: Sure. What's going on? Dante: It's Kristina. I think I got a lead on her attacker. [SCENE_BREAK] Kate: Oh! Who knew this would work out so well, huh? Sonny's jury being sequestered in the very same hotel my offices are in. Coleman: Sweetness, I'd crawl out of windows and jump over rooftops to be with you. Kate: This whole sneaking around thing has got me all... [Both chuckle] Coleman: Best thing about jury duty, that's for sure. Kate: Yeah, I'm going to need something to hold me over. Coleman: Yeah? Kate: Ooh! [Laughs] [Moaning] Judge Carroll: Ahem! Juror number two. Coleman: Good morning, Judge. Your Honor. Sorry. Later, baby. Judge Carroll: You're neither an athlete nor a politician, means you need to keep your horse in the barn. If you get my drift. Show appropriate restraint for the duration of the trial. Coleman: Well, I've never been much for self denial, Your Honor. Judge Carroll: Then learn some. That's not a suggestion, that's an order. Or you'll have to live with castigatory repercussions. Coleman: Is that contagious, Judge? [SCENE_BREAK] Diane: We have to go to the courthouse now, where you will remain calm and silent and seated. Otherwise, Judge Carroll's got an orange jumpsuit and shackles waiting for you. Sonny: All right, I admit I lost it in court. I didn't know Kristina was in the courtroom, okay? I look over my shoulder-- Diane: She'll recover, Sonny, trust me! It's going to be much easier to win back your daughter than the 12 people responsible for-- Sonny: They don't matter to me. Diane: They should! Jason: Can you get the jury back on Sonny's side? Diane: Well, fortunately, Coleman has not managed to get himself dismissed off the jury yet, but he is one vote, Sonny. Coleman cannot acquit you alone! Our best chance of winning over the other jurors was to present Sonny as a loving father, someone with no proven history of violence who was simply squaring off against his deranged wife, to remind them over and over again that Sonny was trying to save an innocent woman and her newborn baby. Well, that went out the window yesterday when Sonny decided to give everyone a demonstration of a hot- tempered, abusive mobster who hated his wife, wanted to see her dead. Sonny: Claudia was demented! She got Michael shot, a little boy put into a coma. Then she took a pregnant woman hostage, and was about to run away with a newborn baby and leave Carly to die! What did you expect me to do! Diane: Juries tend to sympathize with the woman in cases like this, especially when that woman ends up dead! [SCENE_BREAK] Epiphany: Your patient with ventricular tachyarrhythmia is resting. Robin: Mrs. Anderson, yes, the harpist. The IV drug protocol must be working. Epiphany: [Chuckles] Well, if it wasn't for you, she'd be tuning the harp for the angels right about now. Robin: I'll take that as a compliment. Patrick: So Sonny showed his true colors in court yesterday. Robin: Can we please not have this argument again? Patrick: He told the jury that Claudia got what she deserved. Robin: Great, we are going to have this argument again. Patrick: Robin, Sonny bludgeoned his wife and he shot his son in the chest, and somehow you think that's excusable. Are you even aware of the double standard you have when it comes to the people you love? Robin: Well, you know what, look at this way--someday you might do something inexcusable, which will require me to have the same unconditional acceptance of you. Man: Are you Dr. Robin Scorpio? Robin: Scorpio-Drake. Man: You've been served. Patrick: What is that for? Robin: I have no idea. I've been called as a witness to Sonny's trial. Patrick: For whose side? [SCENE_BREAK] Olivia: Isn't it just heaven? Every suite has a lakefront view and its own private hot tub and 24 hour room service. We'd never have to leave the room. Johnny: You said you won this? Olivia: You didn't know I was a contest junkie, huh? I love it; it's like gambling without the money. Johnny: Wow. 2 nights' stay, all expenses paid. Short hour drive away. I am in. I am so in. Olivia: You really know how to make a girl happy. Johnny: As soon as the trial's over, okay? Olivia: I thought you said you were finishing your testimony today, honey. Why do you want to stick around and watch? Johnny: Does it bother you that my testimony might hurt Sonny? Olivia: Look, if you can walk away from this thing with a clear conscience, that's all that matters. Johnny: You're what matters. I'll come by when I'm done tonight, okay? Kate: That's quite a pickle you're in, huh? Johnny hates Sonny, Sonny's on trial for his life. Whose side are you on? [SCENE_BREAK] Diane: You don't do the talking. Claire: Lovely day, isn't it? Diane: Oh! We have never been better. Scent of spring flowers in the air. Smells like hope. Claire: Well, it smells more like victory to me. What? No smart ass comeback from you? Sonny: That's what I pay my attorney for. Claire: Hmm. Well, I must be doing better than I thought. Unless you express yourself better with an axe handle. Sonny: Oh, really? That's-- Diane: People are watching! Sit down. Bailiff: All rise. The district court of the state of New York, the city of Port Charles, Department 23, the Honorable Judge Peter Carroll presiding is now in session. Please be seated and come to order. Judge Carroll: I want both counsels and defense on notice, there will be no repetition of yesterday's misbehavior. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Before we begin, I'd remind you that this proceeding is not reality television. He who makes the most trouble will not be voted off the island. Ms. Walsh, how would you like to continue? Claire: The prosecution recalls John Anthony Zacchara. [Sonny murmuring] Diane: Do you feel that? That is why they call it a stiletto heel. Sonny: Well, you don't have to do that. Diane: Shh. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: So your dad wanted me to work with you, follow up on Kristina's attack. Lucky: Yeah, that makes sense. If Ethan's proven innocent, Sonny will take that news a lot better from you than he would from me. So what's the lead on the attacker? Dante: Kristina's boyfriend Kiefer. Man, that kid has a huge chip on his shoulder. Lucky: That's exactly what I've been thinking. I didn't like the vibe from his parents when I was trying to interview them. But Kiefer and Ethan both had reasons to be upset with Kristina that night. Dante: Ethan because she made a scene at the casino, Kiefer because she bailed on him to hang out with Ethan. Lucky: Mm-hmm. Dante: So who has a violent streak? Lucky: Most abusers come from abusive homes. Dante: But Kiefer's parents are squeaky clean. There's no domestic violence charges on them. I mean, Kiefer, the only thing he's suffered are minor injuries attributed to sports. Lucky: Yeah, but I'm telling you, man, they were unusually guarded. I mean, his parents were just, uh, there was something going on there. Dante: All right, well, what about Ethan's background? Ethan: He never said that his adopted parents were violent in any way. And from what he told me, they were just the opposite. Dante: So Kiefer's parents are either protecting him or themselves, or they're stonewalling. Lucky: Yeah, well, they don't want to risk their son's future at Harvard 'cause of the daughter of a mobster. Parents have covered up worse for their kids. [SCENE_BREAK] Helena: How clever of Nikolas to order an independent paternity test. One would think that he doesn't trust you. Elizabeth: Oh, I'm pretty sure it's you he doesn't trust. Helena: Well, don't keep me in suspense, open it. And don't get all whiny and miserable if the child isn't Lucky's. Any woman with an ounce of sense would want her child to be a Cassadine. Elizabeth: Either way, you'll never lay a hand on this child. Helena: Well, I won't if it's a Spencer. You know, Luke is the only member of that-- Nikolas: You have no business being here. Helena: Well, my great grandchild is most assuredly my business. Besides, Elizabeth seems to think that the child is a Spencer, after all. Nikolas: Well, I see you got the second lab report. Why don't you go ahead and open it? Helena: Well, isn't this exciting? Nikolas: Well, I can see from the look on your face, it's not what you hoped for. Elizabeth: Looks like you're going to be a father again. [SCENE_BREAK] Olivia: There's really no choice for me to make here, Con. I mean, Sonny's on trial, and deservedly so. And justice is just going to have to take its course. Kate: Right, but if Johnny gets Sonny convicted, you're fine with that. Olivia: Connie, the jury is going to convict Sonny if they think he's guilty. Kate: Which you don't feel any conflict or compassion? Olivia: Con, I have had nothing but conflict and compassion for Sonny my entire life, but he shot an unarmed cop. Who happens to be my son. Kate: And his. Olivia: Yeah. Yes. And that is the only reason that Dante is still alive right now. Because I came running in there at the last minute and told Sonny that he was related to the cop that he was trying to kill. Do you even get how wrong that is? Sonny has crossed a line here. He's so fully a gangster now that he's killing cops. Whatever conflict or compassion I may have felt, I am through making excuses for him. Carly: Reminds me, since you guys are standing here, did you know that Dante was Sonny's son? Kate: Carly, is it even humanly possible for you to mind your own business? Carly: I'm going to take that as a yes. Sonny would have never forgiven you for that secret. It's a good thing you guys didn't get married. Kate: Oh, yeah, that's right. Sonny married Claudia Zacchara instead of me. And look how well that turned out. Carly: I guess the lesson is Sonny needs to be more careful about who he chooses to get involved with. Kate: Oh, she's such a hypocrite. I guarantee you that she was relieved that he married Claudia. She would much rather have him miserable with a psychopath than happy with me. Olivia: Well, I'm kinda glad you didn't marry him, too. Kate: Oh, so you think I made a narrow escape? Sonny is a difficult man with a difficult life. And to top it off, he's my cousin's baby daddy. You do know that if he gets acquitted, he's going to come at you full force. He's going to pull out the charm and the dimples. And he had a thing for you once, right? And now he's found out that you had his child. I mean, that's just something a man like Sonny can't resist. Olivia: Connie, Dante stopped being a child the day he started shaving. Kate: Yes, but still, Sonny's going to want to build a bridge between him and Dante. Oh! He has already put the pressure on, hasn't he? Olivia: He can put the pressure on till hell freezes over, okay? Dante's relationship with Sonny is up to Dante. Not me. [SCENE_BREAK] Dante: Whoever Kristina's protecting is who beat her. Lucky: Conventional wisdom says you always look at the boyfriend first. Dante: Yeah, but she won't id him, he won't admit that he did it, and Kiefer's parents may or may not know. So we gotta come at this from a different angle. Lucky: I got the name of the guy that threw the party that night, the one that Kristina bailed on. Dante: Yeah. Lucky: So I'm going to interview him. Dante: Okay. Well, I'll talk to the Davis neighbors, see if anyone saw something. Lucky: All right. Oh, also, Jason spoke to Kristina early on, and she told him that Ethan showed up less than 5 minutes after Sam brought her home. Sam drove directly to the Haunted Star, and Ethan was still there. Dante: I don't know why Jason's even involved in this. Lucky: Just be happy that he took the time to think it through, because if Sonny had his way, Ethan would be dead already. Dante: Yeah, Sonny wants blood for what happened to Kristina. All things considered, it's probably not the best idea for him to rack up another dead body right now. [SCENE_BREAK] Claire: Did your sister Claudia ever tell you she was afraid for her life? Johnny: Many times. Claire: Let's move to the night of Claudia's birthday, the night she was bludgeoned to death and buried in the woods-- Diane: Objection! Judge Carroll: Sustained. Get to the point, Ms. Walsh. Claire: Did you attend your sister's birthday party? Johnny: I did. I wasn't invited, but I showed up because I was concerned for Claudia. Claire: And where was the party held? Johnny: At the Metro Court hotel. Claire: And what do you recall of that night? Johnny: Sonny went crazy on Claudia. Ripped into her, in the middle of the whole party. Claire: According to witnesses, you were in a panic. Is that accurate? Johnny: Yes, I wanted to get there in time to warn Claudia. Claire: Warn her about what? Johnny: Sonny had just found out that Claudia was responsible for Michael, his son, being shot. And he was going to kill her. Diane: Objection, Your Honor, that's pure conjecture. (Crowd murmuring) [SCENE_BREAK] Edward: Oh, there you are, Tracy. I want you to apologize to Maya for your egregious behavior. Is the light playing tricks on my eyes? Skye: Hello! Edward: Oh, Skye! Tracy: He's not your grandfather, you're an imposter! Edward: Isn't this wonderful? My granddaughter and my great granddaughter in Port Charles on the same day! Luke: Maya, is it? I'm Luke Spencer. I was a great admirer of Mary Mae's. And Justus was a good friend of mine. Maya: I met your son Lucky earlier, at the old house on Royal Street. Luke: Oh, yes, yes. I'm not very fond of that house myself, except that's where I met Mary Mae. It was an honor to know her. Edward: Isn't this wonderful? Skye and Maya both here-- it's not often that our house has family these days. Tracy: Let me remind you that Skye is not a Quartermaine. Edward: Fine. Then I won't have to watch my back around her. Skye: Tracy, what have I ever done to you? Tracy: You know what, I think I'll make a list and I'll email it to you, in London. Ethan: Don't you love the warm, fuzzy feelings here? Luke: Okay, people, I hate to break up the family reunion, but Skye is here to see me. Edward: Oh, nonsense. What would Skye want to see you for? Tracy: Well, when you find out, do yourself a favor and run it by me first. [SCENE_BREAK] Johnny: Why did you dismiss me from the stand? I'd just gotten to the part where Sonny wanted to kill my sister and you cut me off cold? Claire: You gave me what I needed. Johnny: Okay, but the jury needs to hear what Sonny said to her that night. Claire: I said I got what I needed, you can go home now, all right? Johnny: So that's it, huh? Claire: No, of course that's not it. You have to trust me. I'm gonna get justice for your sister. Diane: I wonder why Claire Walsh stopped Johnny when she did. The jury didn't get to hear about your rant against Claudia. Sonny: Ms. Claire Walsh is deliberate about what she puts in and what she leaves out. So now you got me wondering what's up. [SCENE_BREAK] [Sighs] Elizabeth: Is she gone? Nikolas: For now. Elizabeth: Oh, your grandmother is way too interested in this child. I don't know why you let her stay in Port Charles. Nikolas: Well, I want her here so I can keep my eye on her. Out of sight is when she's most dangerous. Elizabeth: Promise me you won't let her near this baby. Nikolas: I'll take care of you both, I promise. Look, I know that-- I know that you're disappointed the baby's mine, and that's fine, that's okay. Elizabeth: I just had such a strong feeling it was going to be Lucky's. Nikolas: Well, I'm sorry things didn't work out the way you wanted. Elizabeth: You know, this baby was going to be my last chance at being with Lucky. To make up for everything that I've done. Nikolas: Yeah. So, well, tell me, what can I do to make this easier for you? Elizabeth: Be a good father. Be present and available and invested, and I know none of that's easy for you to do. Nikolas: No, no, you're right. It's the way it should be. I know I'm a slow learner. [Both chuckle] Nikolas: But I promise, I'll get better at it. Spencer's going to have a little baby brother or sister, right? Elizabeth: Mm-hmm. Nikolas: Yeah, that's good. I think he needs that. I know we're not going to be together. But at least we can be a family. All right, I gotta go. I'll see you. [Door closes] [Elizabeth exhales] [SCENE_BREAK] Helena: A bonus for your help with the independent lab. It was clever of Nikolas to think of a back-up paternity test. Actually, it might have worked if he had been playing the game with someone other than me. Lab tech: Anything else you need me to do, Ms. Cassadine? Helena: Just your silence. No one can ever know that Lucky is the father of Elizabeth's baby, or that one day I plan to destroy the Spencers, using their own flesh and blood. [SCENE_BREAK] Lucky: Hey. I spoke to Kiefer's friend, the guy who hosted the party. And according to Jordie Stewart, Kiefer was furious that his girlfriend blew him off. He left the party early, somewhere between 8:30 and 9:00. And Jordie didn't see him at the party after that. Dante: All right. Well, I talked to one of Alexis' neighbors. Lucky: Yeah? Dante: She said she got home around 9:30 and was nearly sideswiped by a light colored SUV speeding out of the Davis' driveway. Lucky: And what does Kiefer drive? Dante: A silver SUV. Lucky: Okay, at 9:30, Ethan was still at the Haunted Star getting reamed by Sam. Dante: This still isn't good enough to hold up in court. Lucky: Well, who said anything about court? [SCENE_BREAK] Bailiff: Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God? Robin: I do. [Sighs] Claire: State your name. Robin: Dr. Robin Scorpio-Drake. Claire: Are you related to police commissioner Malcolm Scorpio? Robin: I am. He's my uncle, but he raised me like a daughter. Claire: And you're a doctor here in Port Charles? Robin: Yes, I'm on staff at General Hospital. Claire: Do you know the defendant, Michael Corinthos Jr., also known as Sonny Corinthos? Robin: I know him very well. Claire: And how would you characterize your relationship? Robin: We've been really good friends since I was a teenager. We were close to someone that had a serious illness, Stone. He was a boy who lived on the streets. Sonny took him in, gave him a place to live and treated him with respect when very few did. And after Stone died, Sonny donated millions of dollars to create a new wing at the hospital. Claire: The Stone Cates AIDS memorial wing at General Hospital. Robin: That's right. Sonny is a very generous and loving man, and, well, I've often said that I don't know how I would have gotten through that part of my life if it wasn't for his love and support. Diane: Your friend Robin might have just pulled your character out of the fire. Sonny: Claire's not finished yet. [SCENE_BREAK] Jax: Claire, call me as soon as you get this. I know court's probably still in session, but I want to talk to you. Thanks. Tracy: Just the man I wanted to see. Jax: Oh, you know what, I was just on my way out. Tracy: It can wait. Jax: Really? Are you okay? Is it a life and death situation? Tracy: I have a project that I think will fit right into your current situation. Jax: I didn't realize I had a situation. Tracy: Yeah, well, the one where you're sleeping in one of your own hotel suites. Jax: Oh, yes, that would fall under the category of "none of your business," wouldn't it? Tracy: Even if it gets Carly's attention? Jax: [Chuckles] Okay. Now I'm listening. [SCENE_BREAK] Luke: Hey, what are you doing? Ethan: More coffee for our guests. Luke: No, no, no, no, I'm shutting this party down. Ethan: Do you have any idea the combined net worth at that table? Luke: You keep your hands off Skye's net worth, she's mine. Now I gotta ask you something-- con to con, thief to thief, man to man. I need your help here. Ethan: Okay, it's going to cost you. Luke: All right, I understand. We'll negotiate the price later. I want you to get the old man and young Maya out of here, and then I need you right close behind them. Off you go. Do your worst. Ethan: Ooh, well, that's really going to cost you. [Luke chuckles] Edward: I loved the pictures that you sent. She named her baby girl after my dear Lila. Ethan: Maya, I should really take a look at the damage to your car, since it was me that ran you off the road. Edward: You did what? Maya: It's nothing, really. But the less he has to do with it, the better. Ethan: Oh, Maya's just being nice. Maya: I am not. Ethan: No, I feel terrible about it. She ran right off the road, you know. Edward: You are a menace, young man. You shouldn't be allowed to drive until you can tell your right from your left. Come on with me, dear, I want to know exactly where this happened so that this rapscallion can make retribution. Maya: It's fine, Edward, really. Edward: Listen to me. The first lesson of the day is that no Quartermaine ever gets taken advantage of. Maya: Neither does a Ward. Edward: Oh. Skye, we'll see you back at the house. Skye: Bye-bye. Ethan: Well, I should probably go show them right where the accident occurred, so you two have fun. Skye: You know what they say. There's no such thing as accidents. Luke: Nope. No such thing as accidents, or coincidences. So we're alone at last. Tell me, why did you come back? [SCENE_BREAK] Kiefer: I'm a little pressed for time, I have practice. Coach doesn't really like it when I'm late, so... Dante: Ah, you know what, this won't take long. I mean, the fact that you came back is proof that you care what happens to Kristina. Kiefer: Of course I do. We love each other. Dante: That's a powerful emotion, love. It makes you do all kinds of crazy things. I know I do when I'm in love, I act like a complete idiot. Kiefer: Yeah, well, the good outweighs the bad. Dante: Yeah. So I'm still trying to figure out how that night went down when Kristina got beat up. Lucky: Yeah, me, too. How pissed off were you at Jordie's house that night? Dante: Right, well, ease off, Lucky. I mean, he was blown off by the girl who supposedly loves him, all right? It was an important night to you, right? Kristina should have had your back. Kiefer: Yeah. Lucky: You bought Kristina that dress so you could show her off to those college guys, right? Must have been a real kick in the teeth to have to show up alone, after you've been talking her up like that. Kiefer: Well, she's my girl. We're always talking it up. Lucky: Hmm. Except she didn't want to be your girl that night, did she? She wanted to be Ethan's girl. Dante: Lucky! Cut the guy some slack here. He got dissed by this girl. I mean, for an older guy, no less. I mean, I don't even know what I'd do if my girl did that. Lucky: Is that why you left the party early? Kiefer: I wasn't in the mood to party. Lucky: What were you in the mood for? Kiefer: I just wanted to blow off some steam. Look, man, I didn't do anything wrong, okay? Kristina screwed up big time, and she thought she'd get away with it. That's on her, not me. Lucky: So are you saying that Kristina got what she asked for? [SCENE_BREAK] Skye: Well, the Star appears to be doing well. Luke: I try. Skye: With Tracy's money? Luke: Let's focus on you and me. What brings you here? It seems like you've been gone a long time. Skye: Time flies. Luke: You'd never know it to look at you. You look absolutely amazing. Skye: Are you messing with me, Luke? Luke: Not yet, but I remain ever hopeful. Skye: Then you look really great, too. It really is nice to see you. Luke: Thanks. Tracy: Oh, I'm sorry, are we interrupting? [SCENE_BREAK] Carly: I haven't heard anything about the trial. Jason: I think they're still in session. Sounded like Sonny did a lot of damage when he blew up at Johnny yesterday. Carly: Great. Sonny never looks worse than when he's vengeful and angry. And the jury has no idea that he's actually sacrificing himself so his son won't suffer. Jason: Take a deep breath. Carly: Why? What do you want to tell me? Jason: Robin's been called to testify. Carly: You might as well call the airport and get the jet prepared to fly Sonny out of the country. Jason: Carly, Robin loves Sonny. She wants to help. Carly: Do you remember when Tony kidnapped Michael? Do you remember her testimony at his trial? She's a sanctimonious little witch, Jason! Jason: That doesn't matter, because in the end, the jury needs to hear from you. Carly: I'm not sure how to take that. Jason: Well, I know that when you make up your mind on what you want, you can make it happen. So you need to do that with your testimony. I have nothing but faith in you that if you put your mind on this trial, Carly, you can help turn it around. [SCENE_BREAK] Claire: You were present at the Metro Court hotel when Sonny made his toast to Claudia. Can you tell us what he said? Robin: I could tell Sonny was a little uncomfortable. He thanked everyone for coming. He apologized-- Claire: Excuse me, Dr. Scorpio, isn't it true you have a near-photographic memory? Diane: Whatever happens now, don't react. You're about to be crucified. Claire: ...Maybe a little case of hero worship? Robin: I don't know about that. Diane: Objection, Your Honor. Relevance? Judge Carroll: Overruled. We're about to find out. Ms. Walsh, get to the point. Claire: Okay, my point is, Dr. Scorpio, as you were right there, what exactly did Sonny say to Claudia in his toast to her? His exact words, to the best of your recollection. Robin: I'm not sure. Claire: I remind you, you are under oath. So you were saying that Mr. Corinthos thanked everyone for coming. Should I have the court reporter read back what you said, Dr. Scorpio? Robin: No. I remember. Um... Sonny talked about how long he and Claudia had been married, and what-- Claire: Not a summary, Doctor. Word for word, please. Robin: Sonny told Claudia that she had changed his life, and, uh, left a permanent mark on him and his children. He accused her of trying to kill him, um, but instead shooting Michael. And then Claudia asked to speak to Sonny privately, and said that he shouldn't believe anything Jason said, because Jason hated her. Claire: Did Mr. Corinthos call her a name? Robin: He called her a bitch. Claire: Just bitch? Robin: I believe it was faithless bitch. Claire: And then what happened? Robin: And then Sonny apologized to everyone for all the pain that Claudia had caused them. See, Sonny was mostly angry with himself, that he didn't trust his instincts or his gut; that he never should have trusted Claudia to begin with-- Claire: Dr. Scorpio, it's not your place to interpret the defendant's feelings. Tell us what he said. Robin: Sonny said, um, "Claudia has lied to us for the last time."
