00:00What the hell are you doing here?
00:04Hell has nothing to do with it, sister.
00:07Lulu, hon, mom's here now.
00:10I'll be right back.
00:20I'm here because Lulu's doctor called me and asked to see me.
00:24Why are you here?
00:26I haven't seen you in months.
00:28I haven't seen you either.
00:30I assumed you had your hands full with the baby, your mayoral duties, and Heather.
00:35Yeah, right on all accounts.
00:37Still, I know you make time to visit Lulu frequently, and so do I.
00:42I'm surprised we haven't run into each other here before now.
00:47Scott, where are you?
00:49Where's the pharmacist? Is he okay?
00:52I need you to call me back right away.
00:56Damn it!
01:02I think you dropped something.
01:07Oh!
01:08Hey.
01:09Oh, good, good, good, good. You're home.
01:11Hi, baby. I missed you.
01:13I missed you, too.
01:14So I just brought Scout home from her softball game.
01:17She was awesome, by the way.
01:19She's upstairs, and I'm sure she'll tell you all about it, but I have to head over to my mom's.
01:24Christina's there recovering, and I want to be with her.
01:26Is it okay if you stay here and watch the kids for a little bit?
01:28Yeah, look, obviously I have no problem being with the kids, but Christina's not at your mom's.
01:37Molly.
01:38Hey, I'm glad you could meet me here.
01:41Yeah, I'm glad you had time to talk.
01:43Yeah.
01:50I heard about Christina.
01:52I'm so sorry. I know you and your mom and Sam, you're losing your mind.
01:57Mom's with Christina now. I haven't had a chance to talk to Sam.
02:00I've been distracted, but I did have time to get reprimanded by your mom.
02:06What happened?
02:09I used my authority as an ADA to confront Ava in her jail cell.
02:13Scott Baldwin complained to DA Scorpio, and it landed on the deputy mayor's desk.
02:17I should have known better. I know, but all I could think about is that our child is gone because of Ava.
02:24How much trouble are you in?
02:26I could have been suspended, even fired, but instead, I was given more than my share of professional courtesy and grace.
02:35Your mom and Robert kept everything off the books.
02:38Okay, well, it sounds like you dodged a bullet.
02:40I don't regret confronting Ava.
02:44But I am sorry about a lot of other things, and I hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
02:55Just to let you know, an emergency hearing should be granted, so don't go too far.
03:00Christina Corinthos Davis committed assault and threatened to kill a witness in an ongoing RICO investigation.
03:06She belongs in a cell.
03:08This is malicious prosecution. You know that, and it doesn't serve you.
03:14But you're going to find that out in court.
03:23Hey, honey.
03:28Daddy?
03:31What is happening?
03:34You listen to me, okay?
03:38I'm going to take care of everything.
04:04I know, I know.
04:05The only reason I went over to her hotel room in the first place was to get her to lift the subpoena,
04:10so I wouldn't have to testify against you, and the only threat I made, if anything,
04:13was I told Ava that I was going to tell the court the truth about her,
04:17that I was going to say the truth about Ava on the witness stand.
04:22Listen to me, okay?
04:25I'm going to tell you what's going on here.
04:27Are you up to hearing this?
04:29I'm going to tell you what's going on here.
04:31Are you up to hearing this?
04:33Yeah. Why?
04:36Jagger and I go way back, at a time where I did some things that I'm not very proud of.
04:40But that's weight that I'm going to have to live with the rest of my life, that guilt.
04:48But it's my weight, not yours.
04:50Dad, I know. I know you had a past. It doesn't matter to me.
04:54I understand that, but now he's come back to settle the score.
04:59And the reason he's doing that is because he knows how much I love him.
05:05So that's why he's targeting me.
05:09I sure would hate to have something happen to my phone.
05:11I mean, my life is in my phone. My photos, my notes, all my information.
05:14I mean, the idea of me downloading all that information.
05:16Okay, you know what? What do you want?
05:17I managed to carve out a half a page in Crimson's upcoming issue.
05:23I can publish a little thing on that artist that you're so excited about.
05:29Well, under other circumstances, I'd be thrilled.
05:32But I have bigger concerns at the moment, including my lawyer, who won't answer my phone calls.
05:37Well, Scott Baldwin isn't always reliable.
05:40Well, I need him. I've been arrested for murder. Attempted murder.
05:46I'm currently out on bail, and the FBI agent I thought was helping me with my custody battle clearly has his own agenda.
05:52Well, apparently you do have bigger concerns.
05:55Go ahead and say it. That I have nobody to blame but myself.
06:01Yes, it's true, Ava. I wanted to see you get exactly what you had coming.
06:06But I never had this in mind.
06:09You wanted to see me suffer.
06:12Got your wish.
06:14I'm sorry for hiding in my work. For leaving you to handle almost everything.
06:21I know you're grieving, too. And that I haven't always been understanding.
06:27It's like living in a slow-motion nightmare.
06:31You're just screaming at yourself to try to wake up, but you can't.
06:35I mean, I go from one horrible moment to the next.
06:37I was just standing with my mom in the hospital when Sonny and Christina got off the elevator, finally ready to go home.
06:44And then, suddenly, Agent Kate storms in and is arresting Christina.
06:49He claimed federal jurisdiction because Ava's apparently a witness in a RICO investigation and Christina assaulted Ava.
06:56That doesn't sound right.
06:58Yeah. My mom jumped straight into lawyer mode. So did I.
07:01I mean, I was standing there, defending Christina with everything I had.
07:04And now, I'm starting to wonder if maybe I shouldn't have.
07:10Has the doctor been in to see her?
07:12No one's been to see Lulu since I got here.
07:16How often do you visit her?
07:18Oh, it depends. I try to see her two or three times a week.
07:23I sit and read the Bible to her. I'm her uncle. I hope that I can bring her a little comfort.
07:31Are you upset by that?
07:33Why wouldn't you tell me about it?
07:35I know how much you've got going on. I thought it would be a help to you.
07:40But I see now that I should have cleared it with you first.
07:44I apologize. If my visits cause you the slightest distress, I'll stop.
07:51I appreciate your intentions. I'm very worried right now.
07:56Why did Lulu's doctor ask to see you?
08:00Something wasn't right in her most recent round of tests. They didn't give me details, but there was urgency about it.
08:07Would you like to say a prayer with me?
08:09My prayer right now is that if my daughter needs my help, I have the strength and the capability to give it to her.
08:17Christina's being arraigned. Diana and I got the emergency hearing.
08:21Well, that's great news.
08:22It's just an arraignment. It doesn't mean I can't still spend the night in jail.
08:26That's not gonna happen.
08:27How did this happen?
08:29It was a desperate miscalculation by a desperate man, and this is gonna blow back big time on Kate's.
08:36I will be there for you when they bring you into the courtroom. I'll meet you outside.
08:42I'll be right there.
08:43Alright.
08:46We got this. Don't worry about it, okay?
08:49Okay.
09:00This isn't my fault. Ava grabbed me.
09:05Don't threaten me!
09:12Ava grabbed me.
09:17Cyrus was in there with her.
09:19I was telling Laura the only staff I've seen with Lulu was her nurse.
09:24And you're here. Why?
09:26Apparently, he's been visiting Lulu regularly.
09:30Amongst other patients here, administering, I suppose.
09:35Mayor Collins, Dr. Collins, I'm so sorry to keep you waiting.
09:40I ran some more tests, and I'm still waiting for the results.
09:44Bear with me a little longer. I'll see if I can rush the lab along.
09:48I want the most current information in hand when I update you.
09:52Can you give us any indication of what you'd like to discuss?
09:56To decide what, if any, course of action we need to take going forward.
10:04You two have a lot to deal with, and I don't wish to intrude.
10:08Laura, I'll be praying for Lulu and you both.
10:18Are you okay with him visiting Lulu?
10:23I don't know.
10:26I can't think about anything but Lulu right now.
10:29Why would you think the FBI agent, John Cates, would concern himself with your custody case?
10:34I mean, that is not something the FBI usually takes an interest in.
10:40Cates wanted information that he could use against Sonny.
10:45Because you lived with Sonny.
10:47Yeah. But I told him I didn't have anything I could give him.
10:51And then Sonny showed up at my hotel suite, and he was livid about our custody battle.
10:56And you know how he gets. He gets all quiet and intense.
11:00And Cates was there, and he stepped in. And I was so relieved.
11:04Well, I know that Sonny can be intense, but I don't believe that he would ever harm you.
11:11That man hates me. As much as he ever did.
11:16And Cates was there for me, like some kind of hero.
11:21And he told me that he would help me with my custody battle, and I needed the help.
11:25So I threw in with him.
11:27Because the only thing that I care about, the only thing that matters to me at all, is Avery.
11:35And now I'm terrified.
11:37Because I think I made a gigantic mistake.
11:42Christina didn't get released from the hospital. What happened?
11:46Okay, uh, she was arrested.
11:51What?
11:52Yeah, I don't have the details, but John Cates brought her into the station while I was there.
11:54Wait, wait, wait. Cates arrested Christina? Does Anna know? Does my mom know?
11:58Okay, yeah, your mom's all over it. Sonny's there, too.
12:01Why did he bring her in?
12:03Cates is saying that Christina went after Ava because Ava is an a**hole.
12:13I was just talking to Christina, trying to calm her down, when I got back from Laura's office.
12:18Wait a minute, so the mayor is in on this, too?
12:22No, uh, Laura called to tell me that something's going on with Lulu.
12:28I showed Ava the sonogram photo and the autopsy photos. I wanted her to know what she's done.
12:33I want her to live with the memory of those images forever.
12:37What did she say?
12:39She was upset, maybe even horrified, but I didn't feel any better.
12:45And of course Ava didn't confess, so what did I really accomplish other than maybe jeopardizing my own career?
12:51I wanted to do something. I wanted to take some action for our child.
12:55And after what I just did out of anger, I could maybe see Christina doing some of the things she's been accused of.
13:03Molly, you actually think that Christina threatened to kill Ava?
13:07Maybe. I mean, she wouldn't have meant it, though.
13:09And I don't think that she physically attacked Ava. She's always been protective of the baby.
13:13Okay, what about the photo with Ava's hands on Christina?
13:16You know what they say? A picture tells a thousand lies.
13:20I mean, it's all how you interpret the image. Maybe Ava's grabbing Christina, or maybe she's fending her off.
13:28You actually think that that scenario is possible?
13:30I don't want to, but the more I think about it, maybe Christina's actions are responsible for the death of our baby.
13:38Now that it's just the two of us, let's get this straight.
13:42You are to say and do nothing, no matter how much Cates goads you, and we both know that he will.
13:48So if you can't sit there and not react, you're going to have to leave. All right? This is too important.
13:54Before I respond, can I ask you something? How are you?
13:58What? What do you mean?
13:59Well, you haven't had a case in a long time, and this is our daughter, your daughter.
14:03And I just want to know if you're up for it.
14:05Are you doubting me?
14:07No, I'm making sure you're not doubting yourself.
14:09If I had any qualms, Diane would be here in two seconds.
14:12But when I see John Cates' face, his smug mug, I will be filled with righteous indignation and a strength that I forgot I had.
14:21That's what I like to hear, but I want you to know that my presence in the courtroom is a problem for him, but not for me.
14:31I'd sure like to think so.
14:33Because he hates the fact that I'm breathing, so I'm just going to watch him as you poke holes in his bogus arrest.
14:40It's going to drive him crazy.
14:46What?
14:47I just got here. Look, I read your email. Not allowed to go on.
14:51I don't feel comfortable going in front of a judge without a case that isn't clear cut.
14:56Then make it clear.
14:59This is part of a larger, ongoing RICO investigation against the defendant's father, Sonny Corinthos.
15:05She's charged with attempted murder. I need her to stay put until the trial.
15:10Got it?
15:12Got it.
15:13All rise. The Honorable Judge Sullivan presiding.
15:31Have a seat. Let's get going. It's late.
15:35I got a call from Lulu's long-term care facility. They want to see her in person. I guess she's had some kind of a setback.
15:45Gosh, Dante, I'm so sorry. Does Rocker know?
15:48No. I want to know more before I talk to him.
15:52Yeah, of course.
15:54She's just been a prisoner in that bed for so long now.
15:57She's just been a prisoner in that bed for so long now.
16:00We had, you know, hopes of miracles happening, and now it just feels like those chances are slim.
16:08Hey, why don't you go meet Laura?
16:12No, I'll wait for her to call.
16:17It's Diane.
16:20Hello?
16:23Okay, thank you so much for calling. Christina's emergency hearing was granted. It's starting now.
16:30Oh, okay. Well, go, go. Just keep me posted.
16:33Yeah, of course I will, but please let me know if anything happens with Lulu or if you need anything.
16:39Okay. Just got to figure out what I'm going to try and say to Rocko about his mom.
16:47Sonny and I had a falling out, and he gave me the boot.
16:52The next thing I knew, we were lining up character witnesses, headed back to family court.
16:58And so I got involved with John Cates.
17:02But now I see how obsessed he is with taking Sonny down.
17:07I don't understand you. Wouldn't that help your custody case?
17:10If Agent Cates managed to convict Sonny of God knows what?
17:15If he does, I'm still facing criminal charges for Christina's fall.
17:19I can't raise Avery from behind bars.
17:22No, it's not going to come to that.
17:24No, I'm not so sure.
17:26Ava, what really happened between you and Christina?
17:32It was an accident. I swear it.
17:37I know you know me. We were friends.
17:41We were real friends before I blew it.
17:44And whatever else I am, however selfish or bad I am,
17:51you know that I would never hurt a child.
17:56You're not the only one who talked to Ava.
17:59I went to see her at her gallery.
18:02Why on earth would you do that?
18:06For the same reasons you did.
18:09I needed answers, and I couldn't go to Christina. I couldn't come to you.
18:13We have just been so far apart on everything.
18:17I'm sorry. I feel terrible for putting you in that position.
18:21You were dealing with the same loss as me, on top of worrying about your sister.
18:26But it was eating at me, Molly, and I needed answers.
18:29And I understand that Ava's memories are subjective.
18:32But what you just told me lines up with what she said.
18:36So no, I don't think that Christina is completely blameless.
18:40It was Christina's choice to go see Ava.
18:43If she hadn't done that one thing, our child would still be alive.
18:48Your Honor, the allegations that were filed were without a witness statement,
18:52without a report, without video.
18:55In addition to that, my client was literally just released from the hospital
19:00and is recovering from an emergency C-section.
19:03So this unjustified arrest is not only jeopardizing her health,
19:08it is bordering malicious prosecution.
19:11And I ask that my client be released immediately. Thank you.
19:18Is what Ms. Davis is saying true? Where is the evidence to back up these charges?
19:29Your Honor, we have a report from a reliable citizen,
19:34but because of the FBI's excessive workload,
19:37Special Agent Cates has yet to file a formal transcript.
19:41Which is late, obviously.
19:44So, in light of this, I'm requesting a continuance.
19:47Request denied. This has been a colossal waste of everyone's time.
19:52The defendant, Christina Corinthos Davis,
19:55is released on her own recognizance, effective immediately.
19:59No!
20:02Your Honor, you are making a mistake.
20:09Thank you for putting us in this position.
20:12I insisted that Christina be our surrogate, and you agreed to it because you love me.
20:18And I love you too, TJ.
20:21No, no, just let me say this.
20:24I've been too scared.
20:27I've been too scared to handle my own grief.
20:31And I've been too heartbroken to handle yours.
20:34And I'm so sorry. You're my best friend.
20:37You're my partner, and I've let you down in every possible way.
20:42I accept your apology.
20:45And I love you. So much.
20:50There's just so much to take care of.
20:55We'll figure it out.
20:58We'll go someplace quiet.
21:07It's from a friend at the courthouse.
21:10Mom got Christina an emergency bail hearing. It's happening now.
21:13You didn't know? Why didn't you tell me?
21:16I work for the DA's office, so I should keep my distance so as not to suggest favoritism toward Christina.
21:21But I have to go, right?
21:24I understand. Go see about your sister. I hope she's okay.
21:27Do not worry about anything else.
21:30We'll make this time tomorrow, and we'll figure it out together, okay?
21:33Okay.
21:46When they called me today, and they said it was about my daughter,
21:50I had this surge of hope, you know?
21:54That they were going to tell me she was awake.
21:57And that she was asking for me.
22:00That has happened so many times since she's been in here.
22:05This sort of irrational spark of joy.
22:11I do be followed up by it.
22:14The crash.
22:16To hear them say that there's been no change.
22:21But this is...
22:24This is worse than no change.
22:26I can tell by what the doctor is not saying.
22:31She's getting worse.
22:34Hey, Laura. It's me again. Just checking in.
22:38Call me when you hear anything. Okay. Thanks.
22:43Hey, Dad.
22:45Oh, hey, buddy. Hey. I didn't know you were down here.
22:49I was thirsty. Danny texted me.
22:51Is there any truth to the rumor we're having pizza tonight?
22:54Yeah. A lot of truth, actually. I just called that in a little while ago.
22:57Sweet. I hope you got three. I'm starved.
22:59Three. Okay. I probably got to call them back, then.
23:03Hey, buddy. Hold up a minute.
23:05Why?
23:08I just got to talk to you about your mom.
23:11Christina came to my suite.
23:14She was furious that she'd been subpoenaed to testify against Sonny in my custody fight.
23:22Sonny attacked Dex at Brooklyn and Chase's wedding reception, and she saw the whole thing.
23:27Yeah. It must have been traumatizing for her.
23:29I mean, I'm fond of Christina, and I know how protective she is of Sonny.
23:34No, no. This went way beyond being protective.
23:37Christina barged in the room.
23:40She was screaming at me.
23:43And at some point, I guess I put my hand on her, and she jerked away.
23:49She stumbled back. She tripped over some luggage, and she went crashing through the window.
23:55It happened so fast. There was nothing I could do.
23:59It was an accident.
24:01She lost the baby, and she nearly died herself.
24:05I know. It was tragic. Just horrible.
24:09So, the luggage, it was just right there.
24:14Were you gone somewhere, Ava? Ava?
24:19Carly threw John out of the metro court, and I told him he could leave his bags in my room.
24:25How generous of you.
24:26He was helping me with my custody fight.
24:29Then, after Christina fell, I suppose I was in shock, really.
24:35I didn't know how I would explain having an FBI agent's bags in my room.
24:41So, I did something really stupid.
24:45I hid them.
24:47I put them in a closet.
24:49And, of course, the cops found them.
24:51So, you altered a crime scene.
24:55I also lied in my original statement about what made Christina fall.
25:01And so then, of course, the cops, they wondered why I would lie if it was an accident.
25:07But it was.
25:09I did not push Christina.
25:12I didn't push her.
25:15But you have to believe me, Nina.
25:18The minute that defendant leaves this court,
25:21her father will have her on a plane to a country with no extradition treaty.
25:25Agent Cates, the only reason you haven't been cited for contempt is your FBI badge.
25:31You have 48 hours to get your case together,
25:35including documentation regarding a RICO case and listing Ms. Jerome as an FBI witness.
25:4148 hours.
25:44Or you will be the one in a cell.
25:47All right.
25:52What the hell was that?
25:58You brought a lousy case.
26:00We got treated accordingly.
26:02Get your house in order, Agent Cates.
26:04And whatever evidence you have, it better be bulletproof,
26:07or else I'm coming after your badge while you're sitting in that jail cell.
26:11Got it?
26:14How do I do?
26:22You're not convinced.
26:25Actually, Ava, I believe a lot of what you're saying.
26:28It must have been a confusing situation, and things probably happened very fast.
26:35Christina fell.
26:38And everybody assumes that I pushed her, no matter how many times I deny it.
26:43You know, life isn't fun when your credibility is shot.
26:47I know a thing or two about that.
26:50When you meddle with people's lives in life-changing ways,
26:55nobody's going to give you the benefit of the doubt,
26:58especially when you need it the most.
27:02Well, I hope you get out of this mess.
27:05You're a good mom.
27:08Let me know if you want that magazine space, okay?
27:10And if I see Scott Baldwin, I'll tell him to call you.
27:16Thanks.
27:23I'm sorry, Nina.
27:28I'm sorry, Nina.
27:35Me too.
27:42I wish I had some kind of an update for Dante. I know how he feels.
27:48Thank God you're here.
27:50Waiting can be excruciating,
27:53but I do appreciate how thorough Lulu's doctor is.
27:58Yeah.
28:00Today, hearing no change would be the good news.
28:04But I just...
28:07I can't bear the thought of her living out the rest of her life like this, you know?
28:12So...
28:14I have hope.
28:17It's okay to be hopeful.
28:19I need it. I need it so that I can be strong for her.
28:28You hang on to that.
28:32And hang on to me.
28:36She's released?
28:38Yeah, and you should have seen Mom today.
28:40She was totally on fire. And Sonny, he even, um...
28:44He kept his composure.
28:46Well, I'm not surprised about Mom. She's always been formidable in a courtroom.
28:50But what you really missed was, uh, Agent Cates. He completely had a meltdown.
28:55I had the misfortune of dealing with Agent Cates the other day.
28:58And again, at the hospital when he was arresting Christina.
29:00That man waves his badge around like it's proof he walks on water.
29:04Yeah.
29:05What evidence did he present against Christina?
29:07None.
29:09There was no evidence whatsoever?
29:11No. And the judge has been said that he has 48 hours to produce them.
29:15Or he could be brought up on charges himself.
29:18Finally, justice in action.
29:21Christina gets to go home and start to rest and heal a little bit.
29:26She's still got the charges over her head.
29:28I believe those charges are gonna be dropped.
29:31Agent Cates doesn't have anything even resembling evidence.
29:35I think the only reason why he arrested Christina was to get at Sonny.
29:40Uh, your grandmother, uh, wanted me to tell you that she was sorry,
29:43but she couldn't make it to your, uh, video game rematch tonight.
29:46Why not? I thought that's why we were having pizza.
29:49Yeah. Uh, she wanted to go see your mom.
29:54It's cool. I like visiting Mom.
29:56Yeah?
29:57It's quiet and peaceful. I can tell Mom knows I'm there.
30:01Oh yeah?
30:02Yeah. Sometimes I tell her about stupid stuff that goes on in school or how people are doing.
30:09Sometimes I read her horoscope from The Invader.
30:12I remember she used to do that.
30:14Yeah, she did.
30:17Anyway, the, uh, the doctors, uh, wanted to talk to your grandma about, uh,
30:23some tests they ran on your mom, the results.
30:27So I, I don't really know anything more than that right now until I speak to Laura again.
30:34You okay?
30:37I have pictures of Mom, so I never forget what she looks like.
30:42And I have lots of footage and recordings.
30:46But her voice, it never sounds right.
30:50It never sounds like her.
30:53I'm afraid I'll forget what her real voice sounds like.
30:58Ava? Ava?
31:02Hey, what, what are you doing here?
31:05Alexis got an emergency bail hearing.
31:08The judge practically walked Christina and Sonny right out of the courtroom doors.
31:12What, what? Christina was arrested? I didn't know anything about this.
31:16Once we went over your story in the hotel room from your perspective,
31:20how Christina was the aggressor, how she came to your hotel room uninvited
31:24and forced her way in and threatened you, the next natural step was to file charges.
31:29Sounds like it didn't go over very well.
31:32Have you talked to Scott?
31:34I haven't talked to Scott. Does, does he know what's going on?
31:36No, why should I?
31:38Well, aren't you worried about him?
31:40I haven't heard a peep from him all day.
31:43And frankly, something tells me I'm going to need my lawyer now more than ever.
31:47Well, Scott's obviously busy, Ava.
31:49You don't need him. I'm the one you need.
31:52I'm the only hope you have left.
31:57Hello again.
31:59Lawyer Alexis didn't worry as much as Mom Alexis did.
32:02Yeah, she did, actually. She just expresses it differently.
32:08Thank you, Mom. You were great.
32:10Let's give a little credit to your father, who actually behaved himself,
32:14even though he was being goaded by Kate's.
32:18I would do anything for my daughter,
32:20even if it means sitting and listening to a rant from an FBI agent.
32:25Thank you, guys. Both of you.
32:29I didn't even think I'd be in this house again.
32:32We both love and adore you.
32:36I will always protect you, you know that?
32:40You're right. If I'm calling you, I'm desperate.
32:44But you owe me a favor, and I'm ready to collect.
32:48Mom's going to wake up one day,
32:51and she'll say just one word, and it'll all come back to me. I believe that.
32:56That's a good way of looking at it.
32:58I mean, as long as she's alive, there's a chance, right?
33:01Even if she doesn't wake up today, we can't give up hope,
33:05because she could wake up tomorrow or next week.
33:12She's hanging in, so we have to hang in with her.
33:15And when the day comes that she opens her eyes,
33:19I hope I can be sitting there, first thing she sees.
33:25I just wish it would be soon, because...
33:30I really miss her.
33:35I miss her too, pal.
33:37I just think this whole thing is absurd.
33:40Christina just lost her baby. She could have died.
33:43And instead of being home and grieving and taking care of herself,
33:47she winds up in a courtroom.
33:50I'm... I'm so sorry.
33:54I wasn't thinking. Wait, why weren't you here?
33:58My office was concerned about a conflict of interest.
34:02Okay, but you're, um, you work in the courthouse complex.
34:07Wouldn't you have heard about it?
34:09I was also caught up in something with TJ.
34:13We have to plan our baby's funeral.
34:18Yeah. I'm sorry.
34:22We're going to rehearse your story.
34:24Then you're going to give a statement. I'll record it, and I'll file it.
34:28I've already given my statement.
34:30Well, then you're going to give it again.
34:32But this time, you'll say exactly what I tell you,
34:36and do it the way I want you to.
34:39You know, it's been such a long day.
34:41I'm... I'm going to close up.
34:43I'm going to head back to my hotel, and we can start tomorrow.
34:48The judge gave me 48 hours, Ava.
34:51I am not losing my badge or Sonny or the case over this.
34:58Okay, so let's get started.
35:01And we are going to work on your statement...
35:04until it's perfect.
35:08I apologize for the wait.
35:11I'll get right to it.
35:13Lulu's tests indicate that her liver is compromised.
35:17If she continues on this trajectory, her liver will fail.
35:22Are you telling me that my daughter's going to die?
