00:00How is my effervescently challenged client today?
00:06Judging from your effervescence, I take it the P.I. gave the photo to Anna?
00:11Ah, no, actually I had to leave it with her assistant, and I haven't heard back yet.
00:15Then again, I don't recall you being all that convinced that my picture was going to get the charges against you dropped.
00:20My lawyer instincts kicked in.
00:22Yeah, so did mine. That's why I had our P.I. do a little more digging.
00:26I take it she found something?
00:28She did. As far as I'm concerned, you should be out of here by the end of the day.
00:36Well, what brings you by?
00:38This.
00:40And this would be?
00:42Proof that Alexis Davis is innocent.
00:45Hi, Elizabeth.
00:47Oh, hi. If you're looking for Dante, he's not here at the moment.
00:51Yeah, yeah, I just wanted to tell him in person that I'm coming to get tested to see if I'm a match for Lulu.
00:57Oh, that's great. I'm sure he'll be pleased.
00:59Yeah. So how's it been going? Are people coming in?
01:02Yes, and people are getting tested at other places as well.
01:05Mama Q strikes again.
01:07I was, uh, yeah, I was bummed to hear that Lulu's brother, Lucky, wasn't able to donate.
01:13Yeah, that was rough.
01:15Especially for Dante.
01:18I don't know how much longer he can hold out hope.
01:21Well, he's not one to give up.
01:23No, no, but he is a realist, and I know he's bracing himself in case Lulu doesn't make it.
01:31Hey, Dante.
01:33How you doing?
01:35Uh, yeah, we're, uh, hanging in there.
01:38Joss told me that Lulu's brother can't be the donor. I'm really sorry.
01:43Yeah, well, we're not giving up.
01:45I have an appointment to go get tested over my lunch hour.
01:48Thanks, man. I appreciate that.
01:51Hey, if you don't mind my saying, I, uh, I'm surprised that you came in.
01:56Yeah, just gotta finish some stuff up, and, uh, then I'm taking a leave of absence to be with Rocco and Lulu.
02:01Spend more time with them.
02:03Hey, is it true there was a bomb thrown here yesterday?
02:05Uh, yeah. Someone dropped off a suspicious package. Turned out to be a gun.
02:09A package with a gun in it?
02:11Yeah, the theory is it's the gun that Alexis Davis dropped off the bridge.
02:14Is that right?
02:16Look, I saw the ballistics report. It's definitely not the gun that killed Cates.
02:22Thank you for coming by, Christina.
02:26Yeah, you sounded really urgent on the phone. Now I know why.
02:31Clearly, Michael told you I went to see Anna last night.
02:34Don't worry. I didn't say anything because he stopped me before I even could.
02:38Oh, no, I'm not mad. I'm not mad. Listen.
02:43I love you very much.
02:46I love you too. What-
02:48Wait. What's going on?
02:54I've made up my mind.
02:57I'm not gonna let Alexis pay for my crimes.
03:02I'm gonna confess to killing Jake.
03:17You're moving back to Port Charles. Why didn't you tell me?
03:21Why would he?
03:23Neither one of us has reached out to the other since I left.
03:27Well, I sent my condolences when- when your mother passed.
03:32Did you read the note that Trina wrote before you sent it?
03:35Carly, really, I didn't-
03:37I don't know what you're talking about.
03:39I don't know what you're talking about.
03:41I don't know what you're talking about.
03:43Did you read the note that Trina wrote before you sent it?
03:45Carly, really, I'm- I'm hoping to have an uninterrupted conversation with my nephew-
03:49Is that really necessary?
03:51I mean, maybe there's a reason we're not close.
03:53And maybe that- that doesn't need to change.
03:57Well, you're right that we're not close.
04:00But we are family.
04:03I can't wait for you to see Avery.
04:05She's- she's grown up so much. She's so beautiful.
04:08I know.
04:09She sends me tons of pictures of Avery, so I'm all up to date.
04:13And so kind of you.
04:15Well, family is important to Spencers.
04:18While Lucas may have grown up with Bobby and Tony Jones,
04:21but there's no changing the fact that he is Julian's son.
04:25It's really funny that you would bring up Julian
04:28when he's the reason Lulu was fighting for her life.
04:32And I'm sure that Lucas and I both have feelings about that
04:35because we were close to Julian and you certainly were-
04:37Oh, I can tell you what Lucas's feelings are about that.
04:39Actually, actually, actually, Carly, I would like a minute with Ann Ava.
04:45Sure.
04:46Thank you for understanding.
04:47Yes. Your magnanimity knows no bounds.
04:52I'll see you at home.
04:58So, should we get a cup of coffee?
04:59No, you're fine.
05:01Okay.
05:03Well, was there something in particular you wanted-
05:05I would like you to explain why you outed Christina's girlfriend, Blaze.
05:11You wanted to speak to me?
05:12Oh, yes, I did.
05:14We were having so many people come in to get tested for Lulu,
05:16our labs are getting backed up.
05:18Can you please approve some overtime for our techs?
05:22Consider it done.
05:24And speaking of the lab,
05:28have you had any trouble with Brad Cooper?
05:32So don't keep me in suspense.
05:33What is this new information that's going to set me free?
05:36Our PI was able to get a hold of a copy of Jack Brennan's room service order.
05:40Dinner for two, with champagne, i.e. ooh la la.
05:45I've already emailed a copy of it over to Commissioner Devane.
05:49That's it?
05:51What do you mean, that's it?
05:52You combine that with a picture of Carly going to his hotel suite, what do you think-
05:55I know, I agreed to that.
05:56I, you know, at this point I just don't actually think that's enough proof.
06:00Well, you're right, it doesn't prove anything.
06:03That's the funny thing about evidence, it's supposed to prove stuff.
06:07No, Alexis, it's not.
06:08This evidence is there to cast doubt on Carly and Sonny's alibi.
06:12That's it.
06:13Yeah, well, I just don't seem to think that Brennan's order,
06:18room service order, or picture of that is going to do that.
06:21Well, I've done a heck of a lot more with a hell of a lot less.
06:25You know, I'm so glad that you're so confident.
06:27It's a long shot at best.
06:30Alright, fine. You know what?
06:31I am open to suggestions, since you don't seem to like any of mine.
06:35The only thing that is going to get me out of here is if Sonny confesses.
06:41Yeah, and how likely is it that a known crime boss is going to let his conscience get the better of him?
06:46Not likely.
06:47Right.
06:48Because he's not going to put Christina in the mix.
06:50Okay.
06:52How about we, somehow we tie Sonny to the murder weapon?
06:55That weapon is in a thousand pieces somewhere, or it's melted down.
07:00Okay, so fine. Where does that leave us?
07:03With the improbable possibility that Sonny is going to put Christina at risk and come forward and save me.
07:12And inside the package is a chrome 9mm pistol.
07:16Like the one that Rick Lansing and Elizabeth Baldwin saw Alexis throw off the Blackstone Canyon Bridge.
07:24I mean, it matches the description, so I'm going to bring them in and see if they can positively ID it.
07:29Is it worth your time? I mean, come on. There's plenty of 9mms out there.
07:34Well, the lab turned up residue consistent with the minerals found in the Blackstone Canyon River,
07:39enough to confirm that it had probably been there for several weeks.
07:43We also ran the serial number, and the gun is registered to Sonny Corinthas.
07:50Similar to the one that disappeared shortly after Kate's murder.
07:53Yeah, but the sticks will be able to tell us whether it's the murder weapon or not.
07:58Well, if it clears Alexis, that's all for the best. I mean, I think we all know she didn't do it.
08:03No, there are far more likely suspects.
08:06One in particular?
08:09You know, if Sonny did this, you realize that we're never going to find the weapon that he used.
08:16The FBI is going to have to build a case without it.
08:19Didn't stop them where Alexis was concerned.
08:21It will now.
08:23All right, I'm going to call Martin Gray and let him know.
08:26Wait, wait, wait.
08:29Let's not be heisty.
08:32Has everybody lost their minds? You cannot do this.
08:35Dad, I know you're trying to do this because of me.
08:37I'm doing this so your mother doesn't have to pay for something she didn't do.
08:40Well, it won't work, okay? It's not going to work.
08:42Mom said herself, I talked to her about it, and she said if you go to the FBI,
08:46they're only going to think you're doing it to protect me.
08:48I have it under control.
08:49How?
08:50I've got a meeting with the FBI today.
08:52No. No, Dad, I cannot lose you.
08:55You're never going to lose me.
08:56I will lose you if you go to prison.
08:57You have to understand something, Christina. This is the right thing to do.
09:01There has to be another way.
09:04This is the only way to get your mother out of prison.
09:06Okay, you both know Jagger came at me, couldn't get me.
09:11Then he went after everybody that I love, and he wanted to hurt them.
09:14And he hurt you.
09:18In the lowest moment of your life, he had to be stopped.
09:25Is this what you're going to tell the feds?
09:28I'm going to tell the feds the truth.
09:32I don't want anyone else paying for Jagger Cates' death.
09:44Hey, been a while.
09:45Yeah, good to see you, man.
09:47Me too. I take it you're back at GH?
09:51Yeah, on a probationary basis, but I really want this to work out.
09:55So no capers, no schemes, no altering lab results, just doing what I love, where I love doing it.
10:02Is your aunt okay with this career change?
10:05Nah, she finally realized I wasn't a good fit for a business.
10:09Well, I know Britt would be happy to see you back here.
10:13Full disclosure, I invoked her name to get my foot in the front door.
10:18Well, she would have loved that.
10:20Damn right she would.
10:22So, well, sounds like you're all good.
10:25Yeah, mostly.
10:29What's up?
10:30Well, my ex-husband Lucas, he's also back at GH.
10:35I know you recorded Natalia Ramirez and gave her audio to the Invader.
10:38Oh, I'm sure Carly couldn't wait to tell you about that.
10:41You had no right to out Blaze.
10:44Nobody should be forced to come out before they're ready.
10:46I agree with you completely.
10:48Really?
10:49Really.
10:51I have no intention of outing Blaze.
10:53Lucas, I have spent half my life in the art world.
10:56You don't do what I do for a living if you're not an ally to the gay community.
11:00Well, then why did you do it?
11:02I was trying to protect Avery.
11:04From what?
11:06Sonny.
11:07And I was trying to get any proof that I could that he was incapable of providing a suitable home for her.
11:13And what does Natalia Ramirez have to do?
11:15He's trying to get full custody, you know. He's trying to take her away from me.
11:17Okay, I am still just not following.
11:21I somehow thought that by exposing his companion Natalia for the bigot that she is,
11:27that it would reflect badly on Sonny.
11:30And it would help me with my custody case.
11:32Turns out it didn't help at all.
11:33Oh my God, you are just like Julian.
11:36He never thought about anyone but himself either.
11:39And you don't think Sonny would do the same to me.
11:42Or worse.
11:43Is Sonny really the best person to use as a moral barometer?
11:48No, I suppose not.
11:51But when it comes to justice,
11:53Yes, he was a deeply flawed man.
11:57But he loved you.
11:59With everything he had.
12:01And you know it.
12:04Don't hate me for saying this.
12:06Let me guess, Brad's work has been flawless.
12:10It has.
12:12Sorry.
12:13What about his attitude? His demeanor?
12:17It's beyond flawless.
12:19His attitude. His demeanor.
12:22It's beyond reproach.
12:24Trust me, I'm as shocked as you are.
12:27I just don't understand why he's working here.
12:30Brad's employment puts the entire hospital at risk.
12:34Look, I am certainly not going to defend Brad as a person.
12:38But since he's been back, his work has been excellent.
12:42For all his faults, he knows his job.
12:46You didn't have to escort me into therapy, Michael.
12:49I just want to make sure you're all right.
12:51I'm not all right. How could I possibly be all right?
12:54Our father is about to go to prison for what might be the rest of his life.
12:57Diane is going to get him the best deal possible.
12:59She's not a miracle worker.
13:01Christine, you have to trust that Dad knows what he's doing and that Diane knows how to get it done.
13:05I know you're right.
13:08Pick you up in an hour?
13:09Do I have a real job?
13:11You shouldn't be alone right now.
13:12I appreciate that, and I mean this lovingly, but please just go home.
13:18Fine, but I'll check on you later.
13:21Much later.
13:43Hey.
14:02Hey, Dante.
14:03Can I talk to you for a second?
14:04I'm just on my way.
14:05It'll be quick.
14:06I spoke to the commissioner.
14:08She wants to keep the ballistics report on that gun confidential for now.
14:11Why is that?
14:12I'm not sure, but I probably shouldn't have said anything to you.
14:15So, would you mind keeping this between us?
14:17I already forgot about it.
14:19Thanks, Detective.
14:20Sure thing.
14:31Diane has requested a meeting with Council Reynolds and her client, Sonny Corinthas.
14:38To talk about the Cates murder?
14:40We both know that Sonny killed Cates.
14:44His conscience has never bothered him until now.
14:47Why bother talking?
14:49Oh, well, it's making sense.
14:52Because Christina came to see me to tell me that she had information about the night that Cates was killed.
14:58You said Michael stopped her?
14:59Yeah, he did.
15:01So, whatever it is that Christina was going to say...
15:04Michael knows what it is, and they're both covering for Sonny.
15:08You know, if anything could make Sonny talk, it would be his kids.
15:12Do you really believe he'd give up his freedom to protect his kids?
15:16I think it's possible.
15:18What time is this meeting?
15:19Noon today.
15:21Alright, so you want me to keep the ballistics results under wraps until after Sonny has met with the FBI?
15:29I don't know about you, but I can't wait to hear what he's got to say.
15:33And if he finds out what's in the report, well, he's going to change his mind about talking.
15:39And the last thing we need is to give Sonny an excuse not to confess.
15:46Alright, you better get busy then.
15:49Doing what?
15:50Breaking Sonny's alibi.
15:52If Carly finds out that Sonny is going to confess, then she might change her statement.
15:59Because I would hate to see her go down covering for him.
16:02She'd be an accessory in the murder of a federal agent.
16:05But even so, Sonny's kids don't deserve to lose both parents.
16:10Enough about me. What's up with you?
16:13Uh, where do I begin?
16:16Um, how about the rumor that you're Max Scorpio's son?
16:20Hospital gossip.
16:22Is it true?
16:23Yeah. Yeah, it's true.
16:25How's that been going?
16:26Well, I almost ruined it right off the bat.
16:29Naturally.
16:30Yeah, naturally. But Max is such a great guy, he forgave me.
16:35I'm sure saving Max's son from drowning probably scored you a few points.
16:39Didn't hurt. But I'm not really comfortable being seen as the hero.
16:44Why? You look good in a white hat.
16:47I'm just glad everything turned out okay.
16:49Because Max is the best guy you know.
16:52He really is.
16:53And Lucas is the best guy I know.
16:56So maybe he'll forgive me too.
17:00Well, that's...
17:01That's not really...
17:02Thanks, Cody. You're the best.
17:04Mr. Cooper.
17:06Is this what you consider professional behavior?
17:10All right, what's going on? What's with all the text messages?
17:13Dad is meeting with the FBI at noon. He's going to confess to killing Agent Cates.
17:18I don't know anything about any meetings. Is Anna involved in this?
17:21I have no idea.
17:22All I know is Dad said he's meeting Diane at the PCPD to talk to the feds.
17:27Look, I know you've figured out that I know more than I've let on.
17:32Did you kill Cates?
17:33No.
17:34Did you say you did kill Cates?
17:36No.
17:37Didn't you do what he says? You do nothing, you say nothing.
17:39And what? Just let him throw his life away?
17:42Well, that depends. Do you trust her father enough to do what he's asking you to do?
17:47Is Christina okay?
17:49Yeah, she's fine.
17:53I wasn't expecting to see you.
17:56Well, there's something that I think you should know.
18:01What is it?
18:04I have a meeting today at noon with FBI Counsel Reynolds.
18:09The prosecutor in my case.
18:11Why?
18:13I'm going to tell him the truth.
18:14I'm going to tell him the truth.
18:17And by telling the truth, you mean what exactly?
18:22I'm going to tell him exactly what happened that night.
18:26Wow.
18:29I wasn't expecting you to say that.
18:34How do you think Christina's going to handle that?
18:36I already talked to her. She's not going to put herself in jeopardy.
18:38Well, I hope you're right because you and I both know she was at the quarter mains and she had a gun.
18:45And if she doesn't keep quiet, they're going to arrest her for obstruction.
18:49I'm handling it.
18:50Okay, well, you need to be a tad more specific.
18:55Before I agree to tell the FBI everything, they're going to have to promise me in writing that you, Christina, and Carly will be immune from prosecution.
19:07Excuse me.
19:08Yes?
19:09I'm looking for your head nurse, Elizabeth Baldwin.
19:11I'm Elizabeth Baldwin. How can I help you?
19:13I'm with GH's legal department.
19:15The hospital's been issued a subpoena from the court of appeals regarding Heather Weber.
19:22When you're wearing this lab coat, you are representing this hospital and I assumed that you would act that way.
19:27It was just a hug.
19:30Which will not happen again.
19:33Which will not happen again.
19:35I'm sure I don't need to remind you that you are still on probation.
19:39No, you don't. I know I need to prove I deserve this job.
19:45If you can.
19:46I'm certainly going to try.
19:49In fact, I've noticed that the lab's been really busy lately. If you need me to work more hours, I-
19:54No, no, no, no. That won't be necessary now.
19:57Oh, have there been problems with my work?
20:00Not yet, but why don't we just keep it that way?
20:08Hey Dex, what's up?
20:09Ms. Spencer, is everything alright?
20:12You tell me. I was summoned here.
20:14Oh, oh good.
20:15Oh, you're here. Fantastic.
20:17Just follow me, please.
20:24Should I call Diane?
20:25No, it's just one question.
20:26Okay.
20:30Do you want to change your statement about the night that Agent Case was killed?
20:35No. Is that all?
20:37Are you sure?
20:38Yes, I'm sure. Why would I want to change my statement?
20:42Well, just after the year you've had, I just didn't think you'd want to be charged again.
20:47Charged with what?
20:49Making a false statement to the police.
20:51That is a misdemeanor in the state of New York, as is obstruction, but then murder of an FBI agent. That's federal.
21:01Even so, I'm happy to stand by my original statement.
21:07Right. Okay. That's, uh, the statement is that you were in bed with Sonny the night that Agent Case was killed.
21:15Yes.
21:18Right.
21:21You know, um, you guys were seen having dinner at Metro Quarter. You back together?
21:27Why do you care?
21:31I don't know, Carly. I mean, it just looks like maybe your interests lie elsewhere.
21:41Hey, man. I've been looking for you. I wanted to tell you in person that I just got tested.
21:47Oh, thanks, man. I appreciate that.
21:51Okay. What's wrong?
21:54What do you mean?
21:55Well, something tells me that there's more going on than just you worrying about Lulu.
21:59Oh, yeah. I mean, there always is, but I can't talk about this.
22:03What is it? Ongoing investigation?
22:05Yeah, something like that.
22:06I mean, you know you can tell me anything, right?
22:08Yeah, not this.
22:10Come on, man. You obviously need to talk about it. What's up?
22:15So we've got new evidence that, uh, could exonerate someone. Someone who's been charged with a serious crime.
22:24You mean Alexis, your sister's mom?
22:25But why are you naming names? That's why I didn't want to tell you.
22:28No names. No names. Unspoken rule. Sorry. Cop. Civilian. No names.
22:32So it has come to our attention that someone else is going to come forward and confess to this crime.
22:38Okay. And did this other person?
22:41Okay. And did this other person actually commit the crime?
22:45Yeah, it's highly likely. Yeah.
22:48Okay. So what's the problem?
22:50Well, they're really only coming forward to get the other person off the hook.
22:53Okay. So if this other person is exonerated, then the real suspect wouldn't need to confess.
22:59That's right. So this new evidence now we're withholding from the person in custody's attorney.
23:06Okay. So you have evidence that would exonerate Alexis, but the cops are keeping it from her lawyer
23:13so that your dad confesses to killing that FBI agent.
23:17All right. I didn't say anything.
23:19And you're wondering if you should warn your dad before he confesses to a murder that he probably committed.
23:25Am I right?
23:28If you and Sonny are trying to make a go of it again, why are you seen entering Brendan's room?
23:35I'm the co-owner of the MetroCorp. I was just checking on a guest.
23:38Okay. Jack's certainly getting the VIP treatment. I mean, didn't I find you in his room like a couple of weeks back?
23:44Mr. Brennan is the new WSB station chief, so he is a VIP.
23:49And I want to make sure all my guests have the best stay possible.
23:52Really? Yeah.
23:53Because there's also a room service order for dinner and champagne for that same night.
23:58Sounds like Mr. Brennan had big plans after I left.
24:02Oh, God.
24:05Look, I really like you, and I'm going to level with you.
24:11You're making a big mistake.
24:14It won't be the first time.
24:16Yeah, but Brendan is a dangerous man. You do not want to get involved with him.
24:22You're not going to be offended if I don't take dating advice from you, are you?
24:28I've known him a really long time. I know what he's capable of.
24:33I'm calling Diane.
24:34No, it's fine. We're done. We're done. Diane's going to be very busy this afternoon anyway.
24:39Charlie.
24:42Are you sure you don't want to change your statement?
24:46I'm good.
24:49You know, loyalty is a very commendable thing.
24:54Unless you're giving it to the wrong person.
24:57I've got to go.
24:58Thank you for your time.
25:03I remember how Julian looked when he talked about you.
25:09He was so proud of you.
25:11There were times when I was proud of him, too.
25:15But every time we got close, I'd find out some horrible thing he'd done,
25:19or some old secret would come to light, or he hurt somebody else.
25:24And it never stopped.
25:25Did you ever think that maybe the reason that Julian made all of those bad choices was his insecurity?
25:33And I know he was always so afraid that he wasn't good enough to be your father.
25:41Nurse Baldwin, I've got your page. What's up?
25:44Yes. Okay, the Court of Appeals has ordered an investigation of Heather Weber's blood work.
25:48Why?
25:49Well, there was a discrepancy between GH's findings and Julian's.
25:53A discrepancy between GH's findings and the other labs.
25:56And the court wants to know, is there a procedural error? Is it some fault in our lab?
26:02You want me to look into it?
26:04The sooner the better.
26:06I'll get right on it.
26:07Thanks.
26:09I want to help my father, but I am a cop.
26:12Right. And you're obligated to see that justice is served.
26:16Yeah, it's kind of my job.
26:18So, what's bothering you the most about this? Is it the withholding evidence thing?
26:22Because, I mean, don't cops do tricks like that all the time to get people to confess? Right?
26:27It's the fact that I'm either betraying my badge or I'm betraying my father.
26:31Even if you think he did it?
26:32Especially if I think he did it.
26:34If I tell him what I know, I've lost all integrity.
26:36And I've literally helped him get away with murder.
26:40You don't know what I think?
26:41I don't think I actually do want to know what you think.
26:43Probably not. Because it's probably not going to be helpful.
26:45Probably not. Because it's probably not going to be helpful.
26:46But, here goes anyways. Okay?
26:49After everything that FBI guy did to your family, I think it just comes down to one simple question.
26:56It's, which one's more important to you? Your family or your job?
27:02The FBI's going to jump at the chance to put me behind bars.
27:07So, I'm going to talk about everything that they've ever tried to pin on me.
27:10As long as they keep you, Christina, and Carly alone.
27:16Because the crime in question isn't enough, you're going to give them the whole story?
27:22They're not going to play ball if I don't give them something worth their while.
27:27So, what about your associates in all your endeavors? What happens to them?
27:31I'll deal with that. I don't see another way.
27:34So, after all these years of you evading the authorities, you're just going to give yourself up?
27:44It's either that or you're going to spend the rest of your life in prison for something you didn't do.
27:53Do you think I would let you do that?
27:57Do you think I would let you do that?
27:59Do you think I would let you do that?
28:03The thought has crossed my mind.
28:07But I know if you were given the choice between me and Christina...
28:10Mom didn't do this for Christina.
28:16I think you're doing it a little for me, too.
28:20A little bit.
28:25Take care of our girl.
28:29I promise.
28:41Julian was always his own worst enemy.
28:45Well, at least we can agree on that.
28:50I did mean it when I said that not all of my memories of him are bad.
28:56Would you share one with me?
28:59It's been a long time since I've heard anybody say anything kind about my brother.
29:07I've been thinking about the day he married Alexis.
29:12I was proud to be his best man and I was so happy for him.
29:17And that day I really thought, maybe my dad can finally be happy.
29:24Maybe he could have been, if he'd married literally anybody else.
29:29I mean, Alexis was the worst thing that ever happened to Julian.
29:32Okay, so much for a fond memory.
29:34I'm sorry, I'm just trying to be honest.
29:36How many times did that woman break his heart?
29:39Well, probably not as many as he broke hers.
29:41Her constant judgments.
29:44Her endless conditions to be worthy of her love and attention.
29:48It wore him down.
29:50It wore him out.
29:52And in the end, she was the reason he did all of those terrible things before he was killed.
29:57No, no, you can't blame Alexis for Julian's actions.
30:01I certainly can.
30:02Okay, well, good talk. I gotta run.
30:05Okay.
30:07Before you go, just please keep in mind that nobody should be judged entirely based on the worst thing that they've done.
30:19Your father loved you.
30:22I know.
30:24And I loved him too.
30:28Thank you for saying that.
30:32And just so you know, I love you too.
30:38I mean, it's true that we're not close.
30:42But we could be.
30:45I'll think about it.
30:48Yeah.
30:50Okay.
30:51Because I'd hate to think that you have so much family that you can afford to throw away your father's side.
30:57I'd never throw away Avery.
31:01Or her mother.
31:08Elizabeth.
31:09Hey.
31:10Terry told me that the hospital received a court order.
31:14Something about the lab's testing.
31:16Yes, regarding Heather Weber's blood work.
31:19What? What about it?
31:21Rick Lansing had her cobalt levels tested and our lab concluded that her levels were still high.
31:29Oh, okay. That's good.
31:31But he also had the tests run at three different labs.
31:35Okay, that is normal. They do do that, yeah.
31:37And none of the results matched ours.
31:40So Rick is trying to prove that the error was within our lab, and that's why the court is ordering an investigation.
31:47Yeah, but it's a mistake. Mistakes happen. You would think they would, I don't know, drop it.
31:53Well, a mistake that big could cast doubt over the integrity of our lab.
31:58And not just with Heather's results, but other results in the past that have been used as evidence.
32:04Right. No, that's a good point.
32:06Yeah, but don't worry about it. I'm taking care of it.
32:09I'm sure it's going to be fine.
32:25Dr. Portia Robinson, what have you been up to?
32:34Thanks for coming by right away.
32:35Hey, is that your Christina?
32:37She's not answering her phone.
32:39Of course they can't tell me if she showed up to her therapy session or not, but I think she ditched it right when I dropped her off.
32:45You didn't watch her walk in?
32:46I felt intrusive.
32:48Look, Mom, we have to find Christina before she does something rash, and Dad's confession will all be for nothing.
32:55Christina, what are you doing here? I wasn't expecting to see you.
33:00We need to talk about Dad.
33:02Your dad has been here. I know what he's going to do.
33:06Did you try to talk him out of it?
33:07Why would I do that?
33:09I don't know. This is all just such a mess. I should have told Anna everything I knew.
33:15What? Anna? What did you tell Anna?
33:18I went to see her to confess.
33:20To confess to what?
33:21Dragging your car to the corner, me and stealing Dad's gun. I was trying to do anything I could to convince her that you didn't do this.
33:27Did you tell her anything?
33:29No. Michael stopped me.
33:31Christina, don't help. You're just making everything worse.
33:36I know this is what everyone keeps saying, but we need to stop pretending that this isn't my fault.
33:40Because it is.
33:42If I never went to Ava's hotel room, my child would still be alive.
33:47Kate's, he would never be able to charge me with killing my daughter, and Dad never would have been upset enough.
33:52You know what's missing here, Christina? The truth. And that's what people need to hear.
33:57That your father actually did the thing that he's going to confess to, and he is doing the right thing by turning himself in.
34:05Okay, but he did it because of me.
34:07He did it because that's what he does.
34:11Granted, Kate's was never going to let up.
34:15Until you were destroyed, until Michael was destroyed, until Dante was destroyed, and he wasn't going to let Kate's hurt his children anymore.
34:23But if Dad confesses, he goes to prison.
34:28And I can't let that happen.
34:33Oh, you're early.
34:34Yeah, I'm meeting Diane.
34:37Someone will see her in as soon as she gets here. You want to follow me?
34:41Hey, Dad.
34:44Wait.
34:47Just to let you know.
