00:00Wait, wait, wait. Is this all right?
00:04It's fantastic.
00:06Okay, I just... I know this is a big step for you. I don't want to mess it up.
00:11Stop talking.
00:21Come in.
00:24Dr. Randolph.
00:25Brad. Have a seat.
00:27Thank you for seeing me.
00:29You made the appointment. Is this concerning a medical issue?
00:32Uh, no.
00:34I didn't think so. What can I do for you?
00:37Right. I happened to check the GH job website and I noticed that there's an opening for a lab tech.
00:46We have a manager for the lab. One we can trust.
00:50I meant the entry-level lab tech position. I'd like to apply for that job.
00:56What's stopping you?
00:58Well, as you know, I have had some history with General Hospital.
01:03Could you be referring to your extremely checkered past as an employee of this hospital?
01:07I am.
01:09And you still think applying for this job is worth your time?
01:12Look, I know it's a long shot.
01:15Unless the chief of staff goes to bat for me.
01:21Excuse me, is the commissioner in?
01:23Hey Jason, can I help you with something?
01:26No, I just need to talk with Anna.
01:29That was the long-term care facility. The doctor wants to speak to me. So I need to go down there now.
01:35Of course. Is there anything I can do?
01:37Uh, no. I don't think there is.
01:42Yes. There is.
01:45Step up the search for Valentine.
01:48Charlotte may need to see her mother. And I hope to God it's not the last time.
01:53Christina Correntos Davis, you are under arrest.
01:58What are you doing?
02:00I'm arresting your daughter.
02:02For what?
02:03That's between me, the perp, and the FBI.
02:06He doesn't want Christina, he wants to come after me.
02:09But he can't do it like a man, so he has to harass my daughter.
02:14Even if that were true, and I'm not saying it is, there is nothing you can do about it.
02:44Do I look elegant?
02:46Exceptionally. But you know this outfit is more than just looking good. It's about safety and comfort.
02:52I feel comfortable and safe.
02:54Ready to ride?
02:55Yes, I can't wait.
02:56Let's go.
02:57So, I want you to pay close attention to Cody when he's saddling your horse.
03:02Everybody should be able to saddle their own horse, and check that girth really well.
03:07Make sure it's tight. Why do we check it twice?
03:10Because horses hold their breath. But the saddles don't hurt the horses, do they?
03:16No, they don't. But horses don't like something tight around their stomachs.
03:20I don't blame them. I hate when my pants are too tight.
03:24Well, you should be grateful that corsets went out of style.
03:27What's a corset?
03:28I wonder where Cody is.
03:33Maybe he's hiding.
03:35Well then, let's go find him.
03:38Laura?
03:39Oh, yes. Jordan. Thank you for coming.
03:42Of course.
03:43Can you cover my breakfast meeting tomorrow with the Waterfront Planning Committee?
03:47Not a problem.
03:48Okay, great. Um, Lulu has had a setback in her health.
03:53So, I may need to rely on you a little bit more than usual over the next few days, and possibly longer.
04:00Well, that's what I'm here for.
04:02I hope everything's alright.
04:04Me too.
04:08The commissioner isn't in her office. Is there a message?
04:11No, I'll wait.
04:24You going to Danny's baseball game on Thursday?
04:26I'll be there.
04:28Those guys actually think they're going to win the whole thing.
04:31He says he really wants that trophy.
04:33Oh, well. Hardware's a good motivator.
04:36You think they have a chance?
04:38Yeah, maybe. I mean, they got some good pitching, pretty deep bench.
04:42They could all use a little more hustle in their game, maybe.
04:44But, uh...
04:46Sorry, excuse me one second.
04:48Yeah, fucking Harry.
04:52Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'll be right there.
04:54Feeling powerless, Sonny?
04:55Against you? Not a chance.
04:57Really? Because you should.
04:58I got the FBI behind me. What do you got?
05:00You want to know what I got? Because I'd be happy to show you.
05:03Bring it.
05:04Dad, don't.
05:05Sonny, stop it. I'll handle it.
05:06I'm going to make a phone call.
05:09Cuff her.
05:10Mom, nobody's doing anything until you tell me what the charges are.
05:13Ms. Carinthos is an adult. I don't know her parents and explanation.
05:16I'm not here as her mother right now. I'm her lawyer.
05:19If memory serves, you lost your license and you're no longer permitted to practice law.
05:22You need to catch up, Cates. I got my license back.
05:25How'd that happen?
05:26There is an entire judicial review board process,
05:28not unlike the one you'll be facing at the DOJ when we're through with you.
05:31State the charges.
05:33If you insist.
05:36Christina Carinthos Davis,
05:38you are under arrest for the assault and attempted murder of Ava Jerome.
05:46Closed cash limit means you're not too busy to come to dinner tonight,
05:49because Rocco got to, like, level 20 of fortune question.
05:53He really wants to tell you about it.
05:55Yeah, I hate to disappoint Rocco, but I can't come to dinner tonight.
05:58Why? Is everything okay?
06:00No. I have to go to Silverwater.
06:03Something's not right with Lulu.
06:06I don't care if she's in court or what client she has.
06:09I need to speak to her.
06:11Assault and attempted murder? That's ridiculous.
06:14The victim would disagree.
06:15Victim? Ava Jerome is nobody's victim.
06:18Only because you didn't succeed.
06:19Christina, don't say another word.
06:22Exactly when did this alleged assault take place?
06:26Thursday, August 1st, approximately 10.30 a.m.
06:29So the altercation you're referencing is the one where Christina
06:33crashed through a window, fell three stories into a swimming pool,
06:36and Ava Jerome walked away without a hair on her head, out of place?
06:40That assault?
06:41I am not going to litigate this in the middle of a hospital.
06:44Correct me if I'm wrong, but you don't have a law license,
06:46so you won't be litigating anything.
06:48Figure of speech.
06:50Now come on, step aside. I'm taking the perp to the PCPD.
06:52Wait, Ava attacked me. She nearly killed me.
06:55She did kill my baby.
06:57Don't speak.
06:58Agent Cates, regardless of the veracity of your claim, which is shaky,
07:02at best you cannot arrest Christina.
07:04Except I just did.
07:05Except you're out of your jurisdiction.
07:07I'm a federal agent. The entire country is my jurisdiction.
07:10This is a local incident, and as such will be handled by the Port Charles District Attorney's Office.
07:14Where you work.
07:16It won't be me handling the case, as I am the actual victim's sister,
07:20and a witness to your harassing her.
07:22Then let me take this off the local plate.
07:24Christina made a criminal threat against a material witness in an ongoing FBI investigation,
07:29which means this is absolutely within my jurisdiction.
07:36That's odd. Cody's not out back, he's not in the stable.
07:39I know I told him that we were going to go riding this afternoon.
07:43Where could he be?
07:46Um, Leo told me Cody lives upstairs. Maybe he's up there.
07:51In the middle of the afternoon?
07:54Well, there's only one way to find out.
07:56Cody?
08:00Cody!
08:02Oh my God, that's Tracy.
08:05Maybe if we're quiet, she'll just go away.
08:07It's Tracy.
08:09Touché.
08:10You locked the door, right?
08:13I'll be right down, Tracy. Just give me a minute.
08:18I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
08:22Christina received a subpoena from Ava Jerome's lawyer,
08:25compelling her to testify against her father, Sonny Corenthos.
08:28Christina then went to the victim's hotel suite.
08:31She confronted Miss Jerome, and threatened to kill her if she was forced to testify against Sonny.
08:36That's not what happened.
08:37Christina!
08:38When Miss Jerome refused to be intimidated by Christina's threats,
08:41she flew into a rage.
08:43She attacked Miss Jerome, and in the struggle,
08:46that's when Christina crashed through the hotel window.
08:49That's not even true!
08:50Stop lying, Gagher!
08:51That's not what happened!
08:52That's what Ava Jerome says happened.
08:54And thanks to the photos you so generously provided,
08:57the evidence corroborates her statement.
09:00The photos show Ava with her hands on Christina, not the other way around.
09:04She was defending herself.
09:05She was sending her off balance out of a window.
09:08Well, now it's for the courts to decide.
09:11Come on, get up.
09:12Don't move.
09:15This is abuse. This is harassment.
09:17This is a threat to her physical health and to your employment.
09:21Christina was being discharged. She was, in fact, leaving when I arrived.
09:25To go home. To a clean bed.
09:27Not to be dragged off to a police station and thrown in a dirty cell.
09:31Gagher, my daughter's in a wheelchair. You just can't walk her out.
09:34I am telling you, if you insist on this,
09:36I will call the ACLU, the DOJ, the FBI, and the local press. Your choice.
09:43Fine.
09:45Bring the wheelchair.
09:51Don't do anything, don't say anything, and I mean nothing. Do you understand?
09:55I'll be right behind you.
10:00I'm gonna fix this with him.
10:05There.
10:09You have the right to remain silent.
10:10Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
10:13I'll ride with you.
10:14You can't come. You work for the DA.
10:16We can't risk any suggestion if they ever take something anyway.
10:19Do you understand these rights?
10:21I'll keep you posted.
10:34You want me to go with you? Or is Kevin...
10:37Kevin's going to meet me down there.
10:40Is there something I should tell Rocco, if anything?
10:43No, I wouldn't do that just yet. Let me talk to the doctor first.
10:47Is this kissing?
10:48Yes, yes, but I'm hoping that, you know, it's a false alarm.
10:51I'm hoping that I'm gonna get down there and that she'll be better by then,
10:54and it'll just be a surprise visit.
10:56Yeah. Okay. Well, here's hoping, right?
10:59Yeah.
11:00Either way, can you...
11:01Oh, absolutely, absolutely. As soon as I know anything, I will call you. I promise.
11:06Thank you for keeping me in the loop.
11:09Of course. You're family, Dante. You always will be.
11:16What's wrong?
11:18It's just, uh...
11:21I know Lula and I weren't together when all this happened, but, uh...
11:26I will always love her.
11:28I know that.
11:32Have you been waiting long?
11:34Not long. I appreciate you coming.
11:37You sound like I had much of a choice.
11:40So, are you here as my mother-in-law or as the deputy mayor?
11:44A little of both.
11:47Okay. Well, like I said on the phone, Agent Cates just arrested Christina,
11:51so I don't mean to rush this, but...
11:53Yeah, well, we're gonna need to take our time with this.
11:56I don't understand. If this isn't an official meeting, why can't this wait?
12:00Because I need to make sure you really hear me.
12:04Okay. About what?
12:06You. Molly.
12:09What on earth were you doing going to see Ava Jerome in jail?
12:13You altered the results of Dr. Finn's drug screenings,
12:16which, by the way, is the least of your crimes.
12:19Is that really a crime?
12:21Yes. So is faking lab results so it would look like Brit Westborn was pregnant with Patrick Drake's child.
12:26Oh. She was pregnant.
12:28Yeah, because you helped Brit and her mother steal Lulu Falconeri's embryo.
12:33Where are you getting all this? You weren't even here.
12:39Is that my...?
12:40It is.
12:42Wow. That looks... thorough.
12:46For the record, I had no idea.
12:48Thorough?
12:49For the record, I had nothing to do with the actual implanting of said embryo.
12:54No points for that.
12:56Yeah, well, I guess you've covered everything.
12:59Oh, you're forgetting how you conspired with Nell Benson to pass off Wiley Corinthos as Lucas's and your child.
13:06My child had just died.
13:10I just got him.
13:12Lucas hadn't even met him yet, and...
13:15All I was doing was watching our new baby until Lucas came home and he just... died.
13:22I can't imagine what you were going through, but that's no excuse for what you did.
13:28I made a monumentally bad call that cost me everything.
13:33I know I hurt people, but I also believe that I've been punished enough.
13:38Do you really expect me to trust you again?
13:40Brit did.
13:42She believed in me.
13:45Before she died.
13:47No.
13:48Before she was murdered by Heather Weber.
13:52Brit lobbied for me to get a job here as a patient advocate.
13:57Brit was a good friend to you.
14:00She was the best.
14:02Ever.
14:06But she was also a professional who was committed to the good of this hospital.
14:11She certainly was.
14:13She wouldn't have lobbied for me if she didn't trust me to work here.
14:16Patient advocate requires a different kind of integrity than the lab.
14:19My point is, Brit believed in second chances.
14:22Heck, she got more than a few for herself.
14:26And she had offered one to me.
14:28Now, she wasn't able to follow through on it, but you can.
14:33So please, Dr. Randolph.
14:36Will you give me this one chance?
14:40For Brit.
14:43Sorry.
14:44Sorry.
14:45Sorry, sorry, sorry.
14:46Were you sleeping on the job?
14:48Uh, nope.
14:49Definitely not sleeping.
14:52I told you that Violet and I were going to ride this afternoon.
14:54Did you forget?
14:56Yeah, I did.
14:58Wow.
14:59That's never happened to me before.
15:02I have been ignored, but never forgotten.
15:06There you see.
15:07There is a first time for everything.
15:09I guess it was all the excitement over James going missing.
15:11James isn't missing?
15:12No, no.
15:13Not anymore.
15:14No.
15:15We found him.
15:16James is perfectly fine.
15:17Wait, what?
15:18We?
15:19I thought it was you that found him.
15:20Uh, yeah.
15:21Uh, well.
15:23Yeah, what, well, uh, what?
15:28Where's Christina?
15:30Downstairs being booked.
15:31She'll be up soon.
15:32You've gone way too far.
15:33Is that a threat?
15:34No, it's a fact.
15:35This is a massive case of jurisdictional overreach,
15:38it's abuse of power, and it's malicious prosecution.
15:41Would you like me to go on?
15:42Tell it to the judge.
15:43I'm going to tell it to your superior at the FBI about this supposed ongoing investigation.
15:48You think I'm making this up?
15:50The FBI has been investigating Sonny for decades.
15:53You know what I think?
15:54I think the FBI is a lot less interested in Sonny than you are.
15:57You're off the rails, Jagger, and I can't wait to see you crash and burn.
16:06What's on your mind?
16:07Uh, what Sonny said yesterday.
16:10That he's been a little off.
16:13His bipolar meds have been tampered with.
16:16Yeah, Carly told me.
16:18Oh, when did you talk to Carly?
16:20Yeah, before I saw you at Sonny's.
16:22I mean, he seems to be back on track now, I guess.
16:26Yeah, he is. Yeah.
16:28Do you have any theories as to who was messing with his medication?
16:32Valentin.
16:34Who got away because I gave you time to warn him.
16:38The FBI
16:40Let's get you ladies on your horses. It'll, uh...
16:44Wait, I forgot my hat.
16:45No, uh, look, you...
16:48Hi, Sasha.
16:50Hey, Lyd. Hi.
16:53Were you and Cody taking a nap?
17:01I may have been unethical, but the one thing no one has ever accused me of is being incompetent.
17:07I mean, if I was bad at my job, all those people I fake lab results for would have just gone to someone else.
17:13I'm not sure that's the flex that you think it is.
17:16All the things that I did wrong, they were never self-serving.
17:20I was always blackmailed or coerced into all of them.
17:23Brad, you are not now, nor have you ever been anyone's innocent victim.
17:28Who said anything about innocent?
17:31That's the one thing I never was.
17:33No.
17:34All the troubles I've had, I've always brought on myself.
17:38But that does not change the fact that I am an expert lab tech.
17:42And my work could be an asset to the hospital.
17:44Then perhaps another lab would be willing to hire you.
17:46I don't want to work at another lab.
17:48Why not? Why is it so important that you come back to GH?
17:52For the same reason it was to Britt.
17:56It's home.
17:58Scott Baldwin complained to Robert that the DA's office was harassing his client.
18:02First of all, I never said I was there as an ADA.
18:05Second, I was never alone with Ava. I brought an impartial witness.
18:09Cadet Heller.
18:10Yes. And third, and most importantly, Ava killed my daughter. Your granddaughter.
18:17Well, that has yet to be proved.
18:19You said you weren't there in the capacity as an ADA.
18:22That you were there as a private citizen.
18:24Yes.
18:25Then why did you ask Dex to be your impartial witness?
18:29Only someone there in an official capacity needs one of those.
18:32And given the circumstances, we both know you would have never been allowed in to see Ava
18:37if you weren't working in the DA's office.
18:39So not only did you abuse your position, you also compromised the prosecution's case against Ava.
18:44You're right. I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking.
18:47I am glad you understand the weight of your actions.
18:50But it's not the Deputy Mayor's job to discipline an ADA when we mess up.
18:54So why am I hearing this from you instead of DA Scorpio?
18:58Because Robert knew you were acting out of grief.
19:01And as a professional courtesy to me, he allowed me to handle this.
19:05Rather than putting an official reprimand in your file.
19:08That is why we're meeting here, not in my office.
19:12And here I thought coffee was just a trick to get me to lower my guard.
19:17Molly, what I don't understand is, that was the morning we cleared out the nursery.
19:21TJ needed you. Your family needed you.
19:26And we thought you needed us.
19:27I did. I do.
19:30Then why would you leave us to go confront Ava?
19:33Because I was angry. I wanted justice for my daughter.
19:38I'm still so angry.
19:41As far as justice, I don't even know if prosecuting Ava will accomplish that.
19:46Well, nothing is going to bring that beautiful baby back.
19:49Nothing is going to bring that beautiful baby back to us.
19:51That's true.
19:53Don't we deserve to know what happened?
19:56Because I'm starting to think that Christina falling wasn't actually Ava's fault.
20:05You alright, sweetheart?
20:06I can't believe this is happening.
20:08Where's Molly?
20:09I told her to stay behind.
20:10So Cates couldn't use the fact that she worked at the DA's office to argue bias.
20:14Bias? Agent Cates is the one who's biased.
20:16I'm the one who fell from a window and almost died.
20:19Whose baby did die.
20:22Honey, are you in any pain?
20:24No, I'm just uncomfortable and I want to go home.
20:26You were supposed to pick up the medication at the hospital.
20:29I'm going to have Fran pick it up and bring it back here.
20:32I can't believe this is happening. Thank you.
20:35Anything for you, sweetheart.
20:36This is a nightmare.
20:39Is Miss Carinthos Davis's cell ready?
20:42It is.
20:44Hold that thought. I'm going to find a way to make you more comfortable.
20:50Listen, I don't want you to worry, okay?
20:54You'll be home before you know it.
20:58You think Valentin tampered with Sonny's medication?
21:02Yes.
21:03Your colleague Carly thinks it was Ava.
21:05Yeah, I mean, she doesn't have any proof, but she's just going off Ava's history and she did that before to Morgan.
21:11Yeah, that's what we thought.
21:12But now you know it's Valentin.
21:15You don't believe me?
21:16I don't know. I'm just trying to make sense of this.
21:17I found the pharmacist who was tampering with Sonny's meds.
21:20He was switching them with placebos and the pharmacist said that he was acting on Valentin's orders.
21:25You're certain?
21:27Yes.
21:31The pharmacist filled me in on everything.
21:34How Valentin approached him, how he got paid, everything.
21:38I didn't, I had no idea.
21:41I had no idea that Valentin would be tampering with Sonny's medication.
21:46I know.
21:48You do?
21:49I mean, that's not your style.
21:50Well, I appreciate that, for what it's worth.
21:53For what it's worth, I need to know where Valentin is.
22:00I don't know.
22:01You don't know?
22:02No, I don't.
22:03You're protecting him again?
22:04Okay, I screwed up. I know that.
22:08But I swear, I don't have any idea where Valentin and Charlotte are.
22:12Would you tell me if you did?
22:14Eventually.
22:16That I believe.
22:20Jason, does Sonny know who's behind this?
22:24Not yet.
22:26You can't tell him.
22:27Stop protecting Valentin!
22:28No, it's not about him.
22:31I need to find Charlotte.
22:35There's nothing chill about a hot sweat.
22:37People have to take naps when they don't have to.
22:40Because that's, that's just what happens.
22:43You get old, you get tired, and then you take naps.
22:47But, you and Sasha aren't old.
22:50Tracy's old.
22:52It is not polite to discuss somebody's age.
22:55Why not?
22:56Those are the rules.
22:57Well, I should be getting back to the house.
22:59I'm making pork chops for dinner.
23:01With applesauce?
23:02Homemade.
23:03How about, Sasha, you take Violet up to the house with you
23:06and you get some apples and carrots for the horses?
23:09But, I'm supposed to watch Cody saddle Buttercup.
23:12You're absolutely right about that and we will wait, I promise.
23:15Hey, horses love apples and carrots.
23:18And if you feed them to Buttercup, she will love you even more.
23:22Sounds like a plan.
23:24I'm sorry about making you and Violet wait.
23:27Won't happen again.
23:29Really, Cody?
23:31In the middle of the day?
23:33I am entitled to a break every now and then.
23:36Yeah, you are.
23:37But, there are children on the grounds and they could have seen you.
23:40We were in my bedroom.
23:42Oh, right.
23:43And Leo has never been in my bedroom.
23:47I'm sorry.
23:49I'm sorry.
23:50Oh, right.
23:51And Leo has never barged into your rooms unannounced.
23:55That, yeah, that's a fair point.
23:58Yeah, locks me nothing to that kid.
24:00I think he can travel through walls.
24:01And tell me what you were thinking.
24:03Aside from the obvious.
24:05Just that it was a big afternoon.
24:08Because you returned James safely to his frazzled but loving parents?
24:13No, not that.
24:14Well, yes, helping James was a big part of it.
24:19Huge, actually, because of what happened afterwards.
24:22Mac told James that I'm his son.
24:25I think he might even have forgiven me.
24:29I can't ask people to turn a blind eye to your history.
24:32Don't!
24:33When you and Britt were appointed coaches, did you turn a blind eye to hers?
24:37We certainly didn't like each other.
24:40Or working with each other.
24:41Or anything about each other at all.
24:43But, by the time Britt invited you to her first and only ever birthday bash,
24:50you were more than co-workers.
24:53More than coaches.
24:55You were friends, right?
24:57Yeah, we were.
25:01That was a great party.
25:03You two sang a hell of a duet.
25:06Why, we live it every day.
25:08I remember how excited I was for her.
25:10Seeing her ready to embark on a new life.
25:13None of us knew the life she had was ending that same night.
25:18You know, Britt died because she saved Jocelyn and Jax.
25:23And you think I can use that to persuade Michael not to object?
25:27Maybe, if you told him that Britt was trying to help me work here again and that you wanted to honour it.
25:35Oh, I can't believe I'm going to say this.
25:38You'll do it?
25:41Hey, I'm hearing from three different people that Kate's arrested my sister.
25:46Yeah, you sure did.
25:49Hey, hey, what the hell are you doing, man? My sister, she was just in the hospital.
25:53And that means she shouldn't have to face the consequences of her actions?
25:56Of what actions? What actions are you talking about?
25:58Bogus charges. He's using Christina to get to me.
26:01So where is she now?
26:02Alexis got on him, so she was able to get a room in there.
26:06Bogus charges or not, I guess that's better than lock up.
26:08Mom, you know what Agent Cates is saying isn't true, right?
26:13Not only not true, it's not even plausible.
26:16When I went to Ava's hotel room, yes, I was angry and she got angry back.
26:21When I told her that I was going to tell the court about everything with Connie and Morgan, that's when she grabbed me.
26:26I certainly did not attack her.
26:28I know that. And if we have to, we will prove it.
26:32I don't think that Christina had any intention of hurting Ava.
26:35And whatever happened in that hotel room certainly had nothing to do with Ava being a witness for the FBI.
26:40Well, that's painfully obvious.
26:42Christina is defensive and confrontational under the best circumstances.
26:46Dealing with Ava?
26:48That could set anybody off.
26:50So, I have to ask myself, could Christina have been the one who initiated the physical confrontation?
26:57And as painful as it is to admit, yes, it's possible.
27:02I mean, I was there when Christina received Ava's subpoena to testify at Avery's custody hearing.
27:08What was her initial reaction?
27:10She was adamant about not testifying against Sonny. She even asked me about refusal to appear.
27:15Which you told her not to, right?
27:17Of course. That's why Christina went to see Ava. To get her to withdraw the subpoena.
27:22Maybe Christina's actions were a little rash, given that there's no chance Ava would ever consider changing her mind.
27:29But it hardly seems unhinged.
27:30Christina has a temper.
27:32And she's hated Ava ever since Morgan died.
27:35So, I just, I can't help but wonder, what did Christina do when Ava refused to lift the subpoena?
27:42Nothing is going to happen to Charlotte.
27:44She's going to lose her father.
27:46We've been doing this for a long time.
27:48We know that there are consequences. That's on Valentin.
27:54You know, while you were waiting for me, I was in with Laura.
27:57Uh, Lulu's not doing well.
28:00So, Laura wants Charlotte back here to spend whatever time is left with her mother.
28:05And I have absolutely no idea where Valentin is.
28:09And that is why I need to find him as soon as possible.
28:11Okay, you do what you need to do. But I'm not keeping things from Sonny anymore.
28:15You don't think he's been pushed to his limit with Christina?
28:17That if he finds out that Valentin was tampering with his medication, he's going to retaliate, isn't he?
28:22He's going to have to find Valentin first.
28:24No, I have to find Valentin first.
28:25No, I have to find him. I do.
28:27And that is why I'm asking you to hold off on telling Sonny.
28:31But you're protecting Valentin again.
28:33No, I'm not. It's about Charlotte. I owe this to her.
28:36She almost died because of me.
28:38She shouldn't be forced to watch her father die.
28:41If that happens, and I'm not saying it's going to happen,
28:47but Charlotte wouldn't be anywhere near it.
28:50I'm just asking you to give me some time.
28:53To give me some time to track Valentin down.
29:01If this is all about Charlotte,
29:06when you find Valentin, are you going to warn him about Sonny?
29:13I'm not going to let a private citizen take the law into his own hands.
29:18...and a family, and, I mean, James.
29:21James is super psyched about his new uncle, which is me.
29:25That's wonderful. I am so very happy for you.
29:30Thanks, Tracy. That means a lot.
29:33Now go saddle my horse.
29:35I'm only doing this because Brit will haunt me if I don't.
29:40Oh, my God. Thank you. This is amazing.
29:43And I promise you, you will not regret it.
29:46I will be the total opposite of the person I once was.
29:49Brad, you don't have the job yet.
29:52I'm just giving you a recommendation.
29:55It's up to the lab manager to hire you,
29:57and in the highly unlikely event that that happens,
29:59it will be on a probationary basis.
30:02I handle parole. Probation's nothing.
30:04There will be a lot of people who will want to see you fail.
30:07I look forward to winning over the haters. Thank you, again.
30:10Get out.
30:12Getting out.
30:19What the hell are you doing here?
30:22There. I stopped at that little bodega around the corner.
30:27Got you some soup.
30:29Soup?
30:31Yeah.
30:33Dante, I don't have a cold. I'm being unlawfully imprisoned.
30:35Well, the unlawfully imprisoned need to eat too, don't they?
30:37I'm not hungry.
30:38Honey, can you just try to eat? You haven't eaten anything.
30:41It's got to be better than hospital food.
30:43Okay, fine.
30:52Okay, it is kind of good.
30:54Yeah, see? Would your big brother ever steer you wrong?
30:57It must be weird, being on this side of the window.
31:02You must feel so guilty.
31:05Why would I? You're the one who made the bogus charges,
31:08using Christina to get to me.
31:11I had to watch while you used Karen.
31:15Now you can watch me.
31:17I'm not going to watch you.
31:19I'm going to watch you.
31:21I'm going to watch you.
31:23I'm going to watch you.
31:25Now you can watch while justice takes its course.
31:28This isn't justice.
31:31Well, if it isn't the Enforcer, right on cue.
31:38Let's take a walk. This guy gets on my nerves.
31:46This is Commissioner Devane.
31:49I need your help in locating one of your clients.
31:54Agent Kate's still here. Fantastic.
31:57Someone's got to stand guard.
31:59Knock yourself out.
32:01I will be petitioning for an emergency hearing.
32:04Go for it. You know you won't get the charges dismissed.
32:07We'll see.
32:09In the meantime, I'll be asking for immediate bail
32:11so she doesn't spend a night in this jail cell.
32:13I'm sure with a father who owns a private island,
32:16she won't be a flight risk at all.
32:18Whatever happens, you will not railroad my daughter.
32:24I really hope they let me go home.
32:26Well, you're not going to spend the night in a jail cell.
32:29Do you really think my mom can get me out?
32:31I do, but if she can't, you're still not going downstairs.
32:36And house arrest at the MetroCourt? Because I'll agree to that.
32:40No, you can spend the night right here.
32:42This is better?
32:44Than the MetroCourt?
32:46No, than downstairs. I mean, this is fine.
32:49Of course, I prefer this now while I'm awake.
32:52There's nowhere for me to sleep.
32:54I'd rather be in a jail cell. At least there's a bed.
32:57No, what are you talking about? I'll be with you.
32:59We got Wi-Fi. We'll pull an all-nighter.
33:01We'll binge some crappy reality show that you love.
33:04We can pick the one I hate the most.
33:08What's going on? You okay?
33:12I'm just scared.
33:15I mean, they don't have any evidence to prove
33:18what actually happened in Ava's hotel room.
33:20I know there's photos where she grabbed me,
33:22but the look on my face, I'm obviously angry, and I know how that looks.
33:26At the end of the day, it's going to be Ava's word against mine.
33:29Okay, but there, right there, that's the great thing.
33:32It's Ava's word against yours.
33:34Who's going to believe her over you?
33:37I'm surprised to hear you have doubts about your sister.
33:40I know how much Christina loved that baby,
33:43and that she would never do anything to intentionally hurt her.
33:46But Christina just doesn't think sometimes.
33:49I'm sure that TJ has shared some of his concerns with that.
33:53He has.
33:55Christina had her share of outbursts during this pregnancy.
33:58That stupid feud with Jocelyn,
34:00her panic after seeing what Sonny did to Dex, which,
34:03blame her.
34:05This?
34:07I mean, I saw the surveillance photos of the confrontation.
34:10Didn't they show Ava laying hands on Christina?
34:14Don't prove that Ava was the aggressor.
34:15Don't prove that Ava was the aggressor.
34:17Christina was so mad.
34:19They were both so mad.
34:21Molly, what are you not saying?
34:24The idea of Christina threatening Ava?
34:28It's not that far-fetched.
34:31Do you really think Christina attacked Ava?
34:35Bottom line is we wouldn't be here,
34:38and none of this would have happened if Christina had just listened to me
34:41and stayed away from Ava.
34:42That's me.
34:49Jagger arrested Christina to get to me.
34:53I agree.
34:55Ava was right about one thing.
34:57She didn't tamper with my medication.
34:59That was Jagger.
35:01He expected me to lose my mind, attack him.
35:04All problems solved.
35:06Yeah, Cates wasn't the one who tampered with your meds.
35:08What do you mean? He had other motive.
35:10Dates match.
35:12It was Valentin.
