00:00Hello. Hi. Can I speak to you privately?
00:03Uh, yes, of course.
00:05Come this way.
00:10Yeah. What can I do for you?
00:12Get a warrant and arrest Cyrus Renault.
00:16I would love to.
00:17For what?
00:18For stabbing Dex.
00:21I'm glad we're doing this. It's, uh...
00:23It's good to be out here.
00:25Actually, LaKate, there's something you need to know.
00:30What's that?
00:32I'm afraid another man has caught my eye.
00:45My music theory class started out less than impressive.
00:48Mm-hmm.
00:49But once we got into chromatic, whole-tone, pentatonic scales,
00:53that was a game-changer.
00:55Yeah, I bet.
00:57Speaking of games, I switched places.
01:00Hmm? Why?
01:02Don't pretend you're not watching.
01:04I'm not...
01:06going to pretend that I'm not watching anymore.
01:08Thank you so much.
01:14Feels better, right?
01:16Yes. I still don't know a lot about football,
01:18but I think P.C.U.'s about to score a...
01:20Nice job!
01:22Yes! Yes! Richard, on me!
01:24Come on, come on, come on!
01:26Thanks for coming by, Congressman Quartermain.
01:28Thought you'd like the sound of that.
01:30Well, I got used to it pretty much right away.
01:32Yeah, I figured.
01:35Uh, don't worry.
01:37Diane's not here. It's just you and me.
01:40Okay. Well, good, considering my current legal standoff.
01:44Yeah, well, I'm aware of the situation
01:47between Michael and Willow about their children,
01:50which is why I wanted to speak to you.
01:52Look, I know Diane's your partner at the firm here,
01:54but I really think it's best
01:56if you just kind of steer clear of this whole mess.
01:58Well, it's Diane's case, not mine.
02:01Oh.
02:03Okay, so then why am I here?
02:06Because I wanted to speak to you, not as a lawyer,
02:09but as a grandmother.
02:11I'm very worried about Scout.
02:15Lisa, please. I need to be with my son.
02:18I am so sorry, Carly, but Willow is Michael's health proxy,
02:22and she has taken everyone off the approved visitors list.
02:25Just like that?
02:27What do you want to do?
02:29I'm going to call Diane,
02:31because there's no way in hell I'm staying away from my son.
02:39Where are my grandkids?
02:48Where are my grandkids?
03:03Well, since we can't question Cyrus,
03:07at least not yet,
03:09we'll simply observe him.
03:11Well, then, here's your chance.
03:14Oh, my goodness!
03:16I am so sorry.
03:18Hello.
03:20Thank you, Cyrus. I'm really sorry.
03:23It's no trouble at all. It happens all the time.
03:26How is my nephew this evening?
03:29We'd be related, but I'm not family.
03:32Mr. Spencer will be just fine.
03:35Oh, very well, Mr. Spencer.
03:37And how is dear Lulu?
03:39Well, she's not complaining about her restraining order against you.
03:43Tell you what, how about we pretend that applies to me,
03:46and you just stay away from all of us?
03:48No, I didn't mean to overstep.
03:51My apologies.
03:54Enjoy your dinner.
03:59What was that?
04:02Well, I mean, if I was nice,
04:05you'd be suspicious.
04:07Oh. Wait, yeah.
04:09Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. Was I too nice?
04:11No, no, no, no. You were a perfect, good cop to my bad cop.
04:15Now, hopefully, Cyrus will want to open up to you.
04:19And how are we going to get him to do that?
04:22I will be right back.
04:33Why do you think Cyrus stabbed Dex?
04:36Well, as you know, Dex and Cyrus had a history.
04:39Yes, yes. He told me that.
04:41He said that he was supposed to kill Cyrus on Sunny's orders,
04:44and Cyrus knew that.
04:46Uh-huh. Well, that's a motive right there, right?
04:48Absolutely, yeah.
04:50So the day before Dex was stabbed,
04:53Dex and Cyrus had a brief but intense conversation.
04:57About what? Do you know?
04:59I don't know. Dex never shared that with me.
05:01But the next day, Dex was on patrol,
05:03and Cyrus was back in Rice Plaza,
05:05and he was ringing his bell trying to get donations for the redemption mission.
05:08Yeah, he was there most days from what I understand.
05:11And then, obviously, the fight broke out between some PCU and Landview students.
05:15And Dex was away because he was throwing away the alcohol that he had confiscated,
05:19and that is when Cyrus stabbed him.
05:22Do you have proof of this?
05:24Well, I spoke to Felicia Scorpio because she was there,
05:27and she remembered that right before Dex was stabbed,
05:30Cyrus' bell had stopped ringing.
05:33And?
05:35So that means Cyrus had stopped ringing his bell because he was busy stabbing Dex.
05:40I mean, come on, that's enough for a warrant, right?
05:45Justin, it's not enough for anything.
05:48I understand your concerns, Alexis.
05:50I'm doing everything that I can to keep Scout away from this mess.
05:53She's staying with me over at the Cosmopolitan.
05:56Normally, I would be a more laissez-faire grandmother about this.
06:00But Sam's wishes were that Scout remain with her brothers.
06:04I did everything that I could to make that work.
06:08Unfortunately, the arrangement has fallen apart.
06:11Drew, she's living in a hotel, isolated from her brothers.
06:15But that's just temporary.
06:17Until when? Are you taking her to D.C.?
06:21I considered it.
06:23But no, I've decided to stay in Port Charles.
06:25I'm going to lease a place here.
06:27I'm going to commute to D.C. when Congress is in session,
06:29so hopefully that will just ease your mind.
06:31Well, that depends.
06:34How does Willow fit in?
06:36I am so sorry, Jason, but there is very little anyone can do.
06:40Jason, Willow is at the core domains, and she's trying to take the kids.
06:44I mean, something must have happened.
06:46Willow has blocked access to Michael again.
06:48Jason, I just got off the phone with Diane.
06:50Tracy won't give Willow her kids back.
06:52That's why she's barred us again.
06:54I can't believe that this is who Willow is.
06:56It's not who Willow is. It's Drew.
06:58Drew is pulling the strings.
06:59What are you going to do?
07:00I say we call a press conference,
07:02and we tell the troop to Port Charles about the hero they sent to Congress.
07:05Or let's blast it all over social media.
07:07As someone who has had her private life splayed all over the Internet,
07:10maybe don't.
07:12Drew hasn't given me a choice.
07:14I have to do something.
07:16Carly, I understand your frustration,
07:18but for Michael's sake, don't make this any worse than it already is.
07:23It doesn't matter where they are. I'm not letting you have them.
07:25Why do you care so much?
07:27They're quarter mains.
07:28Their last name is Corinthos.
07:29Oh, that is a cosmic typo.
07:31Tracy, Michael's alone in a burn unit with third-degree burns.
07:36From a fire that was started in your penthouse
07:39by someone who was clearly trying to get you,
07:42but Michael got caught in the crossfire again.
07:44The only way we can have access to Michael
07:47is if we get those kids back to Willow.
07:49And we both know that you are not dealing with Willow.
07:51Drew is behind all this, so handle him.
07:54What exactly are you saying?
07:58I can't believe I have to explain this
08:00to the Don of the Eastern Seaboard.
08:03Do not capitulate to his demands.
08:07He is the enemy.
08:09Handle him accordingly.
08:14Yes!
08:16I can't believe how well they're doing.
08:18PCU was not favored to win, but Kai is on fire.
08:21Kai, come on!
08:25Come on!
08:29Doug!
08:31How you been?
08:33Pamela, you again.
08:35That is not a very nice greeting.
08:38It's a good thing that you're cute.
08:40Mind if I sit?
08:42Fine, just please don't rob anyone tonight.
08:46I'll do my best.
08:49And my name's not Doug.
08:51It's Gio.
08:53Gio, as in G.O. period, or...?
08:57Short for Giovanni.
08:59Nice to meet you, Gio.
09:02Visit for both of them.
09:04This is my friend, Trina Robinson,
09:06the Cubans' friend of hers.
09:08Actually, we were just classmates last semester.
09:12Nice to meet you.
09:13I didn't get your name.
09:15Oh, she didn't get it.
09:17I'm Emma Scorpion Drake.
09:19Emma.
09:20Yeah, that's what I said you were about.
09:23Yeah, ran into her at Bobby's.
09:26Okay.
09:27Well, what's this about a robbery?
09:30Hey, pity theft is a hobby of mine.
09:33Hey, that's...
09:38Before you answer, I want to make it clear
09:40that I am not taking sides.
09:42Are you sure about that?
09:44I am very sure.
09:46I'm also not making any judgments.
09:48I am simply concerned about my granddaughter's well-being.
09:52Okay.
09:53Well, in that case,
09:56I hope that Willow is part of my life.
09:59And Scout's as well?
10:00Yes.
10:01Drew, she just lost her mother.
10:05She needs stability and a routine
10:08and to be around family who she knows loves and supports her.
10:12Willow and Scout adore each other.
10:13They have an incredible bond.
10:15You should have seen them in D.C. together
10:16when I was being sworn in.
10:18Willow might be exactly what Scout needs.
10:21What Scout needs or what you need.
10:26Sadly, I've seen this before.
10:28Families using a loved one as leverage in a power struggle
10:32and it never leads to anything good.
10:35And certainly it's not going to help Michael's recovery.
10:38Someone has to stand down.
10:40I have tried.
10:41I agreed to give Wiley and Amelia back to their mother.
10:44I can't help it that Tracy won't hand them over.
10:46Reach out to Willow and talk to her.
10:48Explain the situation.
10:49If you need me, I can help you mediate.
10:51Michael doesn't have time for mediation.
10:53Jason, I need you.
10:56I need you to get Wiley and Amelia back to their mother.
11:00I'm on it.
11:03Alicia, I appreciate what you're trying to do,
11:05but I have to make sure my son gets the care he needs.
11:11I don't like where this is headed.
11:13For what it's worth,
11:14I thought you gave them some really good advice.
11:16Thank you. So did I.
11:19This has been a very long day,
11:21and I know I shouldn't say this to a woman in your condition,
11:24but I could really use a drink.
11:27Well, then you're in luck.
11:28I guess you've got your very own designated driver.
11:33No matter what you say, Tracy,
11:35Willow has every legal right to be with her kids.
11:38I thought I was talking to Sonny Corinthos.
11:40Since when does legality mean anything to you?
11:43When it gets me what I want, I'm just like you, Tracy.
11:47Now I need to get Wiley and Amelia back to Willow.
11:52It's the only way that I can see my son.
11:54Your son? Let me remind you that before you adopted Michael
11:58and exposed him to all manner of violence,
12:02he was A.J.'s son.
12:06Obviously, losing Dex so suddenly like that was a horrible shock,
12:10and now your brother is seriously hurt,
12:12so it's understandable that you're looking for answers.
12:15I have an answer, and it's Cyrus.
12:18All right, so you're saying that Cyrus stuck a knife in Dex's back
12:23and nobody saw that happen?
12:25Yes, and they were in an area where nobody else was.
12:28We don't have any surveillance footage,
12:30and no witness has come forward to say any of this.
12:33But why now? You know, why?
12:36Dex's attempt on Cyrus' life was months ago.
12:40Exactly. Everybody's forgotten about it by now.
12:44That's true.
12:47We didn't give any serious consideration to Cyrus.
12:50I mean, this has definitely given me something to think about.
12:52I'm not the only person who thinks it's Cyrus, by the way.
12:54Lucky also believes it was him.
12:55Well, why hasn't he come forward and said anything?
12:57I don't know. Maybe he thinks there's not enough evidence yet to prove it.
13:00I don't know. You'd have to ask him.
13:01Yeah, well, maybe I will.
13:02All I know is this.
13:04No one else had the motive, and nobody else had the opportunity.
13:08It had to be Cyrus.
13:10And you have to do something.
13:15I just transferred to PCU.
13:16Yeah, from where?
13:18Berkeley. It's where I've been living for the past forever.
13:21But I needed to change the scenery, so back to Port Charles I came.
13:25Mr. Snow, huh?
13:27Something like that.
13:29I was hoping to find a cool spot to hang, but this place doesn't inspire much hope.
13:33Well, it's a dive bar.
13:35No, dive bars I love. It's sports bars, not so much.
13:39I mean, all these people cheering on men as they pummel each other. It's barbaric.
13:44Well, that's what I thought, too, but once you understand the game, it's surprisingly complex.
13:50Oh, big night.
13:52Yeah, I wonder if I should order a beer to fit in.
13:55Um, second thought, maybe something a little bit stronger.
14:01Oh, great.
14:02Hi.
14:03Hi, Emma.
14:04Got a minute?
14:09Sasha! Good to see you.
14:11You, too.
14:12What are you and Felicia having? I want to get you guys around.
14:15Oh, thanks. Just a seltzer for me.
14:17Huh?
14:18Designated driver. And Felicia will have a...
14:22Whiskey sour, coming right up.
14:24You're in a good mood.
14:25Yeah, yeah. That's because all my dreams are about to come true.
14:30Thank you. You know, I think it's wonderful how much you volunteer.
14:35I would do more if I could.
14:39And I need to get back to work.
14:42I don't want you to get in trouble. Thank you again for your help.
14:45Anytime.
14:47Well?
14:49You were right. He was totally receptive.
14:52What did he say?
14:53Well, I didn't get a confession, if that's what you're asking.
14:57Because if anyone could break him, it would be you.
14:59However, after a minute, he did seem to ease up.
15:02Like, I might get him to be able to open up to me if I could just chat with him a little longer.
15:08How are you going to swing that?
15:10Well, I could arrange to run into him.
15:13Like at Rice Plaza. You know, someplace very public and crowded and draw him into a conversation.
15:20I don't know.
15:21Or, or, I could volunteer at the redemption mission.
15:27Which is neither public nor crowded.
15:29But it's perfect. It's perfect. He's been banned from the hospital. I am on suspension.
15:33Yeah, because he's killed people during your shift.
15:36Then I can vent to him about how unfair this all is.
15:40I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but I just, I want you to be safe.
15:43Lucky luck.
15:46Got a little box I had to go through.
15:57Jack, thank you for coming. I'm sorry I couldn't meet you at your office.
16:01You didn't want to leave your son. It's okay.
16:03Well, I'm sorry.
16:06You didn't want to leave your son. It's okay.
16:08Well, unfortunately Willow is preventing me from seeing Michael.
16:13I'm very sorry to hear that.
16:15But that's not really my area of expertise.
16:18No, no, Jason's handling that.
16:21I did want to see if I could get some information from you.
16:24Are you familiar with the Baronski Clinic in St. Petersburg?
16:28I know that Valentin referred Ava Jerome there when she was badly burned.
16:32Yeah, yeah. The doctor there developed a revolutionary protocol for scar removal.
16:36I've had several colleagues over the years referred to there.
16:39The results were quite incredible.
16:42Do you think they could help Michael?
16:44Unfortunately, the clinic no longer exists.
16:49Willow has her own set of problems right now, beginning with the sudden dissolution of her marriage.
16:54Not to mention that she's fighting for custody with her husband,
16:57who happens to be fighting for his life in the burn unit.
17:00Okay, yes, Willow definitely needs support.
17:03So does Scout.
17:07Drew, can I ask you how serious, how settled is your relationship with Willow?
17:14We're still figuring that out.
17:17Well, you need to hurry, because when it comes to children, you just can't hope that it all works out.
17:22They need a plan, and Scout needs a stable and a loving home.
17:26I couldn't agree more with that.
17:27But you've got to remember, I'm not the one that forced Scout out of the home that she had.
17:31The Quartermains did.
17:35Tracy, I just, I just want to be able to see my son.
17:40You know who else would like to see their son, Monica?
17:43But you can't, because you killed AJ.
17:47And now you have the nerve to show up on our doorstep making demands about her great-grandchildren.
17:54Well, look at me. Wylie and Amelia aren't going anywhere.
17:59They're staying right here, where they belong.
18:03Tracy!
18:05I was wondering when reinforcements would show up.
18:11Carly and I have been barred from Michael's room. We need to get Wylie and Amelia back to their mother right now.
18:16Why would I allow that?
18:17One, you don't have any right not to.
18:19I don't care.
18:20And two, Michael's well-being depends on it.
18:22He needs his family nearby. Even you can't object to that.
18:26Tracy.
18:29Please.
18:30Where are they?
18:32Wow.
18:34That is the first time I have ever heard you say please.
18:38They're upstairs.
18:41Thank you, Tracy.
18:43Oh, Jason, while you're up there, stop in and tell Monica, please, that you're taking off with her great-grandchildren.
18:52Jason.
18:55Let me remind you how much your mother loves Michael.
18:59She's devastated by what happened to him, and her only consolation is that she has his kids close to her.
19:05Would you really take them away from her?
19:07Wylie and Amelia are Willow's kids, too.
19:10And technically, she's still Michael's wife, so she has the power to deny us all access to Michael.
19:16Okay, so say we give the kids to Willow.
19:19Drew and Willow can still deny you access to Michael.
19:24All Drew wants is to hurt this family, and he's using the kids to do it.
19:30My family banded together and kicked me out of the house.
19:32Not one of them cared about separating a grieving young girl from her brothers.
19:37I understand.
19:39But I'm sure you understand why they were angry.
19:42I haven't done anything that that family hasn't done already.
19:46I haven't done anything that that family hasn't done already.
19:49They've lied, they've cheated, they've blackmailed every chance they get.
19:53Jason is an assassin, and now all of a sudden what I did is so much worse.
19:57I get it. You make a great point.
19:59They have a double standard, no question.
20:02But as far as Scout is concerned...
20:03I tried to make it work. I tried.
20:06I thought that the Q's would care enough about what my daughter needs, but they didn't.
20:09They just wanted to hurt me, and if that meant hurting Scout as well, then so be it.
20:14I am truly sorry, Drew. This has got to be very difficult and very painful.
20:22Which is exactly why I think Scout should move in with me.
20:26What just happened? Is Cyrus being taken in for questioning?
20:30That's what it looked like, and they didn't cuff him, so he must be going in voluntarily.
20:37You don't think it's about the deaths at the hospital, do you?
20:39I don't know. It's hard to say.
20:42But, you know, coming for him mid-shift, during the dinner rush, they're not asking him about jaywalking.
20:48Yeah.
20:50All right, well, let's go.
20:52What? What do you mean? Why?
20:56We were here to stake out Cyrus. Cyrus is gone, so there's no reason for us to be here.
21:02Well, come on. I mean, we already ordered.
21:05Why not have dinner?
21:06Why not have dinner?
21:08We have to eat, right?
21:14Yeah. Yeah, sure.
21:17And let's just continue discussing how we can get me closer to Cyrus.
21:23Right.
21:25Uh, well, look, it's one thing for you to talk to him in a public space, but it's another to seek him out.
21:34Well, how can I work him for information if I don't seek him out?
21:38Elizabeth, listen to me. Cyrus was a drug lord. He spent years in Pentonville. I don't want you going anywhere near him.
21:48You summoned me?
21:50Thank you so much for coming in, Mr. Renaud. You know the drill.
21:54Oh, I remember it well.
21:59Please, take a seat.
22:00Just following up on Officer Heller's case.
22:04Oh, it's a tragedy. It was taken so soon. But what does his death have to do with me?
22:11Nothing, as far as I know.
22:14Oh, then why am I here?
22:17It's regarding the stabbing in Rice Plaza.
22:20We're just following up with all of the witnesses, confirming their statements, just to see if there's anything additional that they would like to add.
22:26Do you think that you could walk me through your recollection of that day?
22:30Oh, gladly. I was volunteering, ringing my bell for donations, trying to sway people to give up a dime or a dollar.
22:40Do you recall exactly where you were when the fight broke out?
22:44Well, I had stepped away from my post for a moment. I needed refreshment and to give my ringing arm a rest.
22:51Wait, that's not exactly what you told Detective Chase in your statement.
22:58No, I thought I had.
23:01Is that right?
23:03Commissioner, could we just lay our cards on the table?
23:07Yeah, I think that would be a very good idea.
23:11Because you didn't send a uniformed officer to collect every potential witness from their place of work.
23:17You didn't send a uniformed officer to collect every potential witness from their place of work, did you?
23:24So why me?
23:27Yeah!
23:29So that's really the police commissioner's granddaughter?
23:32Apparently.
23:34And you really didn't notice her taking your phone?
23:37Nah, it was nothing. You know, the first time I met her, she pocketed some guy's wallet.
23:42No way.
23:43Maybe, uh, maybe a little homesick for Bentoners.
23:47I am over 21, okay? I'm just trying to make some new friends and have a fun night, so...
23:52What's the big deal?
23:54The big deal is the last time you had a fun night, there was property damage.
23:59And you ended up getting yourself expelled.
24:03I took all the money that I got from Drew and I bet it on this game!
24:07All of it? You must be pretty confident that PCU is gonna win.
24:09No, no, no. See, that's the thing.
24:11PCU is supposed to lose by double digits, so as long as they come within nine and a half points, I win.
24:16And right now, they're in the lead.
24:18This quarterback has money in the bank.
24:20Look at him. Come on, Kai!
24:22There's a snap.
24:24Taylor takes a three-step drop. He's scanning downfield.
24:27He's getting fires on him!
24:29Kai!
24:31Oh, no.
24:33Kai's not getting ups! Kai's not getting ups!
24:39He's not moving.
24:41Yeah, he is. See? They're sitting him up.
24:44Thank God.
24:46Come on, Kai. Shake it off. You're gonna be okay.
24:49They're walking him off the field, but he's holding his throwing arm.
24:53But he's on his feet. Not a stretcher.
24:56That's the bright side?
24:59In football, kinda, yeah.
25:01Hey, there's nothing to worry about.
25:06Kai's gonna be okay.
25:07And Felicia, I get it. Okay? I screwed up.
25:10How refreshing to hear you own that and not make jokes and excuses.
25:15But screw-ups or not, it's my life.
25:18And while I love you and I love my grandmother, and yes, I love my parents, too. A good bit of the time.
25:25Well, I'm sure they'll be moved to hear that.
25:28My point is, I make my own choices.
25:31And that's never gonna change.
25:32Excuse me?
25:34Some poor choice of words.
25:37How evolved of you to realize that so quickly.
25:40How else should I say it? I mean, Cyrus is a bad guy, and I don't want you to get hurt.
25:46What a coincidence. I don't want to get hurt, either.
25:51Lucky, I appreciate you helping me.
25:56And clearly, I'm not the only one.
25:58I appreciate you helping me.
26:01And clearly, you have expertise in investigation that I don't.
26:06But I can take care of myself.
26:09I've been doing it a long time.
26:12I know.
26:14And even though I am on leave from the hospital, I am still the head nurse.
26:20And if we're right, Cyrus Ronell killed three patients in my hospital and just tried to kill a fourth.
26:28Okay, so you can see why I would be concerned for your safety.
26:31She knows to be brought to justice. And I need to do this.
26:35For myself, for my staff, for Sam, for my hospital.
26:43You certainly had enough motive to stab Officer Heller.
26:46I long since forgave Officer Heller his misguided attempt on my life.
26:52So you say. But you're still Cyrus Ronell.
26:56Meaning, I'll always be a criminal in your eyes.
26:59Meaning that you couldn't have run a criminal enterprise for decades without knowing everything that's going on around you.
27:06So, were you to remember something pertaining to the events in question, the PCPD and I would be extremely grateful.
27:13Yeah. If you wanted my help, why treat me like a common criminal?
27:18Because you are a common criminal, Cyrus.
27:21And while you say you've repented for your sins, if you are even slightly connected to a crime, you're damn right.
27:33I'll be bringing you in for questioning.
27:37But thank you so much for coming in today.
27:39And if there's anything more, we'll be in touch.
27:44A little advance notice next time, so I can find someone to cover my shift.
27:48I'll do my best.
27:49I'm sorry, you're just letting him go? You can't, you have to arrest him.
27:54Arrest me for what?
27:56For stabbing Dax.
28:00The clinic was unfortunately shut down. No one knows why.
28:04Okay, well the doctors have to go somewhere, right?
28:06They have a burn treatment that could help Michael, so if we can figure out their names or find out where they went, we...
28:13Unless you already know.
28:16One of the doctors set up another clinic in Germany, Baden-Baden.
28:21However, Michael's chances of getting in there are slim to none.
28:24Yeah, but if anyone could persuade them, you could.
28:26Okay, the clinic has no official affiliation with the WSPD.
28:29Okay, what about an unofficial affiliation?
28:31Let's just say that the clinic serves a specialized and exclusive clientele.
28:34I will pay anything.
28:36Michael has to get in there.
28:38As I said, there's no official affiliation. I don't have an income.
28:41Jack, please.
28:43My son is in the burn unit.
28:46Please don't make him suffer.
28:49Come on, Sonny.
28:51Willow's in no condition to look after those kids. Her behavior is far too erratic.
28:56Willow's in no condition to look after those kids. Her behavior is far too erratic.
29:01Now she's using Michael as a bargaining chip.
29:03I agree with you, Tracy, but Willow's got leverage. We don't.
29:09Get the kids.
29:12Wait a minute, Jason.
29:14Look.
29:19You broke your father's heart.
29:22You broke your grandmother's heart.
29:26Please don't break your mother's heart, too.
29:32Come on, for once in your life, don't choose Sonny.
29:39Choose family.
29:42Come on.
29:44Come on, choose us.
29:47I can't watch any more of this.
29:49Are you all right?
29:50I'm fine. I mean, I just texted Kai. I mean, I don't expect him to text me back by tonight. I just hope that he's okay.
29:59Emma, I'm glad that you're living here again and this independent streak.
30:04Here it comes.
30:05No, I love that even more. In fact, I think it's good to get into a little trouble.
30:11Then why are you and Grandma coming down on me so hard?
30:13A little trouble. No felonies, just misdemeanors.
30:17You're here for a fresh start, right?
30:19Yes. Thank you. I am.
30:21Well, then I suggest that you use it wisely.
30:27I don't get it. How do they lose 21 points in one quarter? How?
30:33I'm so sorry, Cody.
30:38You know what they say, easy come, easy go.
30:40Easy come, easy go.
30:44Who am I kidding? I should have known I'd lose everything.
30:49I always do.
30:54Sorry, guys.
31:04You know what? You're right.
31:07Let me get my phone out to record this.
31:08There's more.
31:10Don't ruin it with overkill.
31:14Do you really think I've forgotten how strong you are?
31:19How resourceful and resilient you are?
31:26I don't know. Maybe I did.
31:29Maybe I did.
31:32But believe it or not, I like being strong and resourceful and resilient for you.
31:40Whether you need me to be or not.
31:43Go on.
31:47First of all, I don't ever need to be reminded of how amazing you are.
31:54And second?
31:55Second?
31:57As far as investigating Cyrus goes.
32:02Yeah.
32:04We should, uh, we should do it your way.
32:10How about instead of doing it your way or my way, how about we just do it our way?
32:21So this is why you brought me down here? You suspect me of being Officer Heller's assailant?
32:26Without questioning everyone.
32:27Stop. No, no. You saw him move away from a crowd. You followed him and then you stabbed him.
32:31Oh, my poor child. Officer Heller was indeed one of Port Charles' finest.
32:37I know you loved him and I know you're grieving. So I forgive you your suspicions and accusations.
32:44Yeah, well, I'm not sorry, you son of a bitch.
32:46Okay, Justin, that's enough. Mr. Renaud, you are free to go. Thank you.
32:51Peace be with you both. And with Officer Heller. May he rest.
32:56Sure. Thank you.
33:00What are you doing? How could you let him go?
33:02I had to. The whole point of bringing him in here wasn't to keep him or to get a confession out of him.
33:08It was to start building a case against him. But now he knows that we're investigating him.
33:13And that you figured out the order of events leading up to Dex being stabbed.
33:17I mean, basically, sweetheart, you told him which of his tracks he has to cover.
33:22You're not taking my daughter from me. Of course I'm not.
33:25Really? Because it sounded like that's what you wanted to do.
33:28I've just given you a temporary solution.
33:30For the time being, Scout can spend time with her grandmother and her aunts while you get settled here and in D.C.
33:37While I will always make time for Scout to spend time with her grandmother,
33:41I really, truly believe the best place for her right now is with me.
33:47And eventually, Willow.
33:50Look, I get your reservations. I really do. I'm just asking you to give Willow a chance.
33:56Because what we have together, it's very real. And it could be very real for Scout, too.
34:03I'll see what I can do.
34:05That's all I can ask.
34:06But I don't want you to get your hopes up. This might be a non-starter.
34:09I understand. But if this procedure can help Michael the way it helped Ava, I've got to try and get him access.
34:15Yeah, of course you do.
34:17And if you could get him accepted to the clinic, then maybe I can get Willow to see reason and actually let Michael go.
34:26In order for me and Carly to see Michael, we've got to get those kids back to Willow.
34:33I'm sorry, Sonny.
34:37I can't take the kids away from Monica.
34:40Do you know what's at stake here?
34:42Yes, I do.
34:44But I also know that Monica needs Wiley and Amelia here.
34:49This isn't over.
35:03I'm sorry.
35:04♪♪♪
35:14♪♪♪

35:30You just made your father so proud.
