00:00Please don't tell my mom about this.
00:07You're not going to lie to your mom, James.
00:10But I don't know who she's going to kill first.
00:12You for doing it or me for letting it happen on my watch.
00:16Come on, gently.
00:18Hey, Willow, we need to see a doctor as soon as possible.
00:22I think James might have broken his arm.
00:25Okay, don't worry. We'll get him checked out right away.
00:28Dr. Cannon, this is James West.
00:31Can you take a look at his arm?
00:33Hey there, little doodle. What happened?
00:36Nothing. Spill it, James, and make it the truth this time.
00:44As soon as I can. Is this a good time?
00:46Absolutely. Thank you so much for coming.
00:50How much exactly did Ava tell you?
00:53Well, she didn't tell me anything, but I always enjoy hearing about hospital-related cases.
00:58They tend to be very lucrative.
01:00It's not about the hospital. Well, not directly, anyway.
01:04It's about me. I need some help. I'm desperate.
01:10It has to be if you're talking to me.
01:13Wow, it's true.
01:16Christina told me that you bought this house.
01:18I just had to come here and see for myself.
01:21Why on earth would you buy Valentin's house?
01:26When Terry told me about your pediatric sports program, I jumped for a chance to be the hospital's liaison.
01:31Yeah, the program is just all about making a positive, life-changing impact for the kids,
01:36and I just, I knew that you'd be able to help with that, so I'm so happy that you're on board.
01:40Me too. I can't wait to get started.
01:43Morning. Morning.
01:45Hey, Gio, you okay?
01:47Yeah, you look like you got an itch you can't scratch.
01:50Yeah, no, I'm totally fine. I just have something to tell Tracy, and I don't think she's gonna like it.
01:57Oh, if it's the Gloria is coming to visit, I already know.
02:01No, that's not it. There's a guy at the gate. I think he's surveying the property.
02:09Hey, Lulu, that's a nice surprise.
02:13You might not think so after I give you this.
02:16A room key?
02:18I stole it, and posed as a member of your housekeeping staff to break into my Uncle Martin's room.
02:25Why?
02:26I was trying to find something to help me figure out where Charlotte is.
02:30Did you?
02:32No, but I found something else. Something huge.
02:38All right, judging by your face, it can't be something good.
02:42Dante has a child. A child he knows nothing about.
02:49I want the program to focus on the long-term pediatric patients.
02:54The kids that have been in the hospital longer than they've even been at home.
02:57Plus the moms that are just so used to getting bad news that they can feel like there's a little hope in their lives.
03:03Oscar would be proud of you. He was a great kid.
03:07He was the best. And he was so much more than his illness.
03:11And I want these kids to know that they are too.
03:14And I also want them to know that there's role models out there that they should know about.
03:19So that no matter what they're going through, that they can know in their hearts that it's possible to have a brighter future.
03:25Well, this program is definitely going to shine a light on that.
03:28That is my hope.
03:30And I'd like to think, wherever he is, that Oscar knows that I'm thinking about him and that I miss him.
03:37And I'm going to dedicate this entire program to him.
03:45Thank you for coming with me. My old coach thought it'd be a good idea for me to be a part of this new program the hospital's starting.
03:51Well, he's right. The kids will be so psyched to see you.
03:54And you'll raise their spirits and they'll keep your spirits up while you go through rehab. It's going to be great.
03:59I'm looking forward to it.
04:01But I might need you to point me in the right direction because I have no idea where I'm supposed to meet this guy.
04:06Oh, well, who are you supposed to be meeting?
04:08Some congressman named Drew Quartermain.
04:11Oh, yeah, I can definitely point him out.
04:20That's actually him right over there. Yeah.
04:25The only problem that I ever had with you was your defense of Heather Webber.
04:31Yes, I can understand why that would upset you. I'm a parent myself.
04:35You were just trying to protect your daughter and keep her safe, just like any good mother would.
04:39I appreciate you saying that.
04:41That's true. And Heather Webber is no longer in Port Charles, so I think we can consider that whole thing water under the bridge.
04:50Well, I'm not sure if that's the case because the situation that I want to discuss with you, it involves Heather.
04:57So I need to make sure that you don't have a conflict of interest.
05:02Well, I can confidently say that my client attorney relationship with Heather Webber is firmly in the past.
05:09And I am open to working with you on your case.
05:12But if I'm going to help you, you've got to stop speaking so cryptically and tell me exactly what is going on.
05:19Are you going to tell me how you did this?
05:22I was just sweating off the roof.
05:25Off the roof, huh? This real daredevil stuff.
05:29Thank you. It was fun until...
05:34What's the diagnosis, doctor?
05:37I'll have to wait on some x-rays to be sure, but my guess is that it's broken.
05:44If it's broken, does that mean I have to wear a cast?
05:47I'm afraid so. Sorry, buddy.
05:49If I get a cast, my mom will see it and my life will be over.
05:52The only reason your mom doesn't know what's happened right now is because she's in an important meeting.
05:57You're going to rat me out?
05:58I won't lie to her, James, or keep things from her.
06:02And dude, that's not the kind of man you want to be either.
06:07Besides, she's going to find out anyway because she's a mom and that's the way moms are.
06:12And all the kids at school are going to want to sign your cast. It'll be very cool.
06:16I'm worried if my mom ever lets me out of my room again.
06:19Well, let's not panic yet.
06:22How about we go to radiology and take some x-rays so we know exactly what's going on?
06:28Sound good?
06:30A nine-year-old metro girl...
06:32Natalia, what a delight to see you.
06:38So what do I owe the honor, business, or pleasure?
06:41Neither. I want some answers.
06:44I remember you having better manners. No, hello, no, how are you?
06:49You're so much more demure in your youth.
06:52Because I grew up, thankfully.
06:54I need to know what you want with Deception.
06:57Well, it's not about what I want with Deception, it's about what Deception wants with me.
07:01Oh, I remember you being much more direct.
07:04I have access to a rare mineral that Deception desperately needs.
07:08Yes, the zincite.
07:09That's the one.
07:10So you see, my relationship with Deception is one of supply and demand.
07:14I know how market forces work. Just stop, okay?
07:16I know you, and I know you're not here for a collaboration.
07:19I know you're here for a hostile takeover.
07:23So this thing with the house happened quickly.
07:26I had my concerns, but Christina and Jason thought that I needed more security than I have at the MetroCorp.
07:32I have that here.
07:34It's just gonna be temporary until I go, you know, I go back to the penthouse.
07:38I'm sure you know what you're doing.
07:40Yeah.
07:41Oh.
07:42Alright, this is the paperwork you requested from Diane.
07:45It's for Gio's Educational Trust.
07:48Thank you for the heads up, Gio.
07:50But the surveyor's here at my request.
07:52You hired him, Granny?
07:54Yes, I certainly did. I don't trust Martin Gray's claim that the family crypt is on unpermitted land.
08:03So I'm getting my own proof.
08:06What happens if your guy tells you the same thing that Martin told you?
08:10Are you suggesting that Martin knows the extent of this property better than I do?
08:16But even if Martin is right, you could afford to move the crypt.
08:21It doesn't surprise me that you don't understand the sanctity of the Quartermain legacy.
08:27This is not a vase you can move around at will. This is the family crypt.
08:32What if you had to?
08:36I'm going to use every resource at my disposal to make sure that my mother, my father, and my brother stay exactly where they are.
08:46Dante has another child? Maybe I shouldn't have said anything.
08:50Oh my God, it's too late now. You already did. How did you find out about this information?
08:54Because Valentin trusts Martin. Martin's his lawyer and he knows how to get in touch with him, so I figured he might have that information in his room.
09:02So I broke into his room. Sort of.
09:05Look, I am not going to apologize for doing what I have to do to find my daughter.
09:09I get it. I would too. I would too.
09:11I didn't find anything about Charlotte, but I did find notes on a newborn baby.
09:18I only saw pieces because Martin almost walked in on me and I panicked and I dropped all the papers.
09:24Okay, but then how can you be sure about what you saw?
09:26Because a part of it, what I saw, said Dante Falconeri, father. And the notes also said Brooklyn, mother.
09:39I'm going to get going.
09:40Joe, if you have a few minutes, why don't you stay and have a cup of coffee or a cup of tea with us?
09:47Why?
09:49Because I appreciate your vigilance and your thoughtfulness. Thank you.
09:56You're welcome. But I don't want to intrude.
09:59Oh, you wouldn't be intruding. I'm inviting you. I'd like you to join us. And I'm sure everyone would agree, we absolutely do. There it is.
10:09You're welcome.
10:11This morning is turning out to be quite lovely.
10:16There you go.
10:18Oof, I spoke too soon.
10:23Pleasure to meet you, too.
10:25The congressman actually saved my life. Well, I mean, he and my dad did.
10:29It definitely was a team effort.
10:31Well, Kai knows a lot about being on a team. He's an incredible football player.
10:35I know. I'm a big fan of yours. I don't think I've ever seen a quarterback think on his feet quite so quickly.
10:40Thank you. I bet you probably do a lot of that in your job, too.
10:44Well, some days more than others.
10:47You know, when we start this program, we get it up and running, the kids are going to be thrilled to see you walking into their rooms.
10:52Well, I was actually thinking about it on the way over here, and I know a lot of other athletes at PCU, and not just football players.
10:58If I get the word out, I think a lot of them would be excited to be a part of this.
11:01Oh, that would be amazing. Thank you.
11:03Yeah, happy to help. You know, any friend of Trina's and her parents is a friend of mine.
11:13Dante and Brooklyn had a baby.
11:18I mean, I knew they were family friends who grew up together, and they had a lot of history.
11:24They do. Big time.
11:27And from what I've pieced together from Martin's notes and from what I got out of Cody Bell without him knowing, this happened when they were teenagers.
11:35Dante, Brooklyn, and Cody, they were all training to be counselors at a summer camp when Dante got Brooklyn pregnant.
11:42Brooklyn had a boy, and she gave him up for adoption, and I think that Lois is involved somehow, but I'm not sure about that part.
11:52This is crazy. And I'm shocked that Brooklyn would keep this from Dante. I mean, they're like family. It's typical Brooklyn.
12:06Now that I know this, I have to tell Dante, right?
12:10I mean, if I keep this huge, life-changing secret from him, doesn't that make me just as bad as Brooklyn?
12:17I have no intention of dragging deception into anything.
12:20Wouldn't that be a first?
12:22Well, for you, maybe. We haven't been married for years. I am a changed man.
12:29I can see that you bought some new suits, and you've cleaned up your act quite nicely.
12:35I see right through your little facade.
12:39There is nothing to see. I'm not interested in anything, poor child.
12:44I'm not interested in anything, poor Charles. No, no, not one thing.
12:52I get it. Because it's someone.
12:56Right now, that makes sense that you would go to all the trouble to relocate to poor Charles, because you're after someone.
13:03And I would guess that someone is Sonny Carinthos.
13:06I am not pursuing Sonny Carinthos.
13:09From what I've seen, that one is you.
13:14Hello?
13:17Sorry to interrupt. Your butler let me in.
13:20And I'm so glad that he did. Welcome, welcome.
13:25Miss Oreniris, I'm so sorry to cut this short.
13:30I do need to speak to Miss Davis alone.
13:33Of course. Thank you, Mr. Sidwell.
13:35It's nice to see you, Alexis. You too.
13:40I'm so happy you accepted my invitation. It's so nice to see you here at Windermere.
13:46The feeling is far from mutual.
13:51Um, I know that there's a lot of tension between you and Brooklyn, but you can't judge her.
13:59You made a somewhat similar decision, and I know you haven't forgotten how difficult that was.
14:07Ending my pregnancy is the hardest thing I ever did.
14:14Yeah.
14:18But at least I told Dylan about my decision.
14:22Brooklyn never even mentioned a word about her pregnancy.
14:25What? Brooklyn never even mentioned a word about her pregnancy to Dante.
14:30We don't know what the circumstances were back then.
14:32All we know is that Brooklyn made a different decision than you, and that doesn't make her a bad person.
14:37And I'm not judging her.
14:39But I do think that Dante deserves to know that he has a child out there somewhere.
14:44In a perfect world, I agree with you. But this isn't just about Dante anymore.
14:50What do you mean?
14:52That baby has all grown up.
14:54And what if he has a happy, blissful life and he doesn't even know he was adopted?
14:59You could destroy all of that.
15:02Or at the very least cause a lot of complications.
15:10I wouldn't want to do that.
15:12I know.
15:15And then there's Brooklyn and her family and Dante and his.
15:19This information could destroy a lot of lives, Lulu.
15:23If you tell Dante, the fallout could be devastating.
15:27Are you ready for that?
15:30Dante.
15:32Hey, Dad.
15:33How you guys doing?
15:34Hey, Sonny. Sit. I'll make you a coffee.
15:37If you hear about deception, I suggest you do whatever it is you have to do at a more appropriate time and place.
15:45Let's say the deception offices, perhaps.
15:49I'm here to get a signature from Gio.
15:53Well, as he resides here, I am entitled to know what the business is you want to conduct with him.
15:58Gio, get your coat. We'll talk someplace else.
16:01Granny, is this really necessary?
16:03You want Gio to sign anything, I want my lawyers to look at it.
16:06Actually, Diane and Alexis already had everything signed up.
16:10Your lawyers could just stay out of it.
16:11Okay, well, why don't I take the papers and look at them later?
16:15I hope you don't mind if I don't take your word for it.
16:18Oh, no, no, go ahead.
16:25An educational trust? Absolutely not.
16:34And I will tell Elizabeth Baldwin everything that we spoke about.
16:37She's the hospital liaison for the program.
16:38I think she's going to love it as much as I do.
16:40Sweet. And if there's anything else I can do in the meantime, just let me know.
16:43I will.
16:45I don't know if Trina told you, but I started the program in honor of my son, Oscar, who died of cancer when he was a teenager.
16:53Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.
16:55Um, yeah, Kai and I actually haven't talked about Oscar, but Joss and I talk about him all the time.
17:02You know, we miss him so much, and I just, I think that he'd really love this program.
17:07I think so too.
17:09You and I really have lost some amazing people, haven't we?
17:14Yeah, too many.
17:17Um, well, actually, I think my mom is in her office. Are you going to see her before you leave?
17:24You know, I just might.
17:26You're being blackmailed?
17:29Yes. By two people, actually.
17:33Unrelated people?
17:35A few months ago, a lab tech found out that I altered Heather's test results.
17:41But he's just been asking for, you know, little stuff, like a day off or permission to go to a medical conference out of town.
17:48It's not great, but it's not my biggest concern.
17:51Someone else found out what I did. Drew Quartermain.
17:56Congressman Quartermain?
17:59There was a time that Drew and Curtis were best friends.
18:04But all of a sudden, Drew changed. He just turned into this horrible person.
18:09And now Curtis and Drew are at war, especially over Aurora.
18:14And now Drew is holding what I did over my head.
18:17What does he want?
18:19He wants me to broker a sit-down between him and Curtis so that I can convince Curtis to end the war.
18:27How much does Curtis know?
18:30Curtis values honesty, okay, above all else.
18:35So I told him that I tampered with Heather Weber's test results.
18:39But what about you being blackmailed?
18:42He doesn't know about that.
18:44I see.
18:46So what am I supposed to do?
18:49Betray my husband on Drew's behalf?
18:52Or tell Curtis the truth?
18:54That I've been keeping this secret from him for months?
18:57Well, I'm afraid you are in what we call in the legal community between a rock and a hard place.
19:04I don't want to lose my job. I am scared to lose my medical license.
19:08But Curtis?
19:10He's the one that I trust.
19:13He's the one that I don't want to lose the most.
19:16Why does Martin have this information to begin with?
19:20I'm not sure.
19:22But I know that Brooklyn and Chase have been trying to have a baby and they recently found out that Chase is sterile.
19:28That's not public knowledge, by the way.
19:31So maybe Brooklyn's thinking about finding the baby she gave up?
19:35Makes as much sense as anything else.
19:38This whole thing just kills me.
19:39I would never think Brooklyn would keep something like this from him.
19:42He thinks she's such a good person.
19:45Okay, look.
19:47I need to ask you a question.
19:49Is this about your rivalry with Brooklyn?
19:53Not at all.
19:55I am not that petty, I swear.
19:58I just think that Dante deserves to know he has a son.
20:02Okay.
20:04But just know, if you tell Dante, he may be inclined to shoot the messenger.
20:10I know.
20:13I was up all night last night going over this again and again in my head.
20:20Think about it.
20:22This child is Rocco's brother.
20:26And he's a quartermain?
20:30He's Tracy's great-grandson?
20:33And Lois, Ned, and Olivia are all his grandparents?
20:37And Sonny.
20:39And Sonny.
20:43So say I do keep this secret.
20:46That means you have to keep it too.
20:49Are you sure you can keep this from your kids?
20:53And from Sonny?
20:55Go sign it.
20:57Don't even read it.
20:59I'm giving it back to Sonny.
21:01Don't you ever get tired of being so self-righteous?
21:04I really don't.
21:05Granny, maybe you should just stay out of this.
21:07I agree.
21:08Sonny has been paying for Gio's tuition for years.
21:11Since I was 12.
21:12And my mom died.
21:14And I'm happy to do it.
21:15He's a great kid.
21:16He's talented.
21:17He should pursue his dreams.
21:20But he's older now.
21:21He's more independent.
21:23He deserves to have a trust if he needs to get some money.
21:29It appears you've been very generous with Dante.
21:32It appears you've been very generous with Gio in the past.
21:35But that was before he came here.
21:37So as of now, his education will be managed by us.
21:43Tracy, I don't know what the big deal is really.
21:45I mean, he does the same thing for Rocco.
21:49What Sonny provides for his grandchildren is Sonny's business.
21:52I will not allow Gio to be the beneficiary of Sonny's ill-gotten gains.
21:58And I'm shocked you don't agree with me.
22:00Considering you usually wear a badge.
22:04And you.
22:06This man that you keep defending.
22:09Has been indicted on racketeering charges more times than I can remember.
22:13Do you really want him involved in Gio's education?
22:16And you, my darling girl.
22:18Bad enough.
22:20You were on board with letting Sonny get embedded in deception.
22:25Now you want him embedded in Gio's finances.
22:28Absolutely not. I won't have it.
22:30Tracy, Tracy.
22:31You have the mind of a hooker.
22:33If you want to say anything to me, just say it to my face.
22:39My apologies. I thought I had.
22:43I will not allow that young man to be hurt by you.
22:48I have borne witness to the chaos you have wrought.
22:51And usually to impressionable and naive young people like
22:57Stone.
22:58Karen.
23:00Tracy!
23:01Enough!
23:03This isn't about my past.
23:07It's about Gio.
23:15Um, go ahead and sign that whenever you can.
23:18And we can get back to me.
23:20Okay.
23:27Okay.
23:43I'll walk you out.
23:46We'll go with you.
23:47Yeah.
23:58I love it.
23:59Did you pick out the color yourself?
24:01I chose pink.
24:02It's my mom's favorite.
24:03But I'm not sure it'll help.
24:05She's still going to be mad.
24:06For a minute, maybe.
24:08But mostly she's just going to be happy that you're okay.
24:10I looked at the x-rays and it's a clean break.
24:13So you'll be back to throwing fastballs and riding horses in no time.
24:17Dr. Gannon is right.
24:18It won't even interfere with your spring break plans with Wiley.
24:21Well, I guess we better get home and face the music.
24:24Thank you so much.
24:25Face the music?
24:26Thank you so much for all of your help.
24:28Anytime.
24:30Let's eat.
24:31Wish me luck.
24:36I know you!
24:37James, that is rude to point to people.
24:39I am so sorry about that.
24:40No, it's okay.
24:41Hey, bud.
24:42What happened to you?
24:43I slid it off the roof.
24:45Wow.
24:46I just got tackled wrong.
24:48You're that football guy.
24:50You're like a star.
24:51I see you on TV.
24:56Take a breath.
24:57Okay?
24:58All right?
24:59Let me do some research.
25:01I can assess the personal and professional fallout of your actions should you be exposed.
25:06And what do I do in the meantime?
25:08Just keep this to yourself, okay?
25:09As hard as that's going to be, do not tell Curtis.
25:12At least not right now.
25:14As far as Drew is concerned, just stall him.
25:18String him along.
25:19Make him think that you're going to get into all of his demands.
25:22Okay.
25:23You're right.
25:24You're right about not telling Curtis the truth.
25:26Yeah, just for now.
25:27Right.
25:28Just for now.
25:29But Curtis knows how I feel about Drew.
25:32If I'm all of a sudden sympathetic towards him, he's going to know that something's up.
25:36Yeah, well, you're going to have to be subtle.
25:39Finesse your husband in the smallest way possible.
25:41Make Drew think that you are pressing Curtis as hard as you can.
25:46That's exactly what Ava said.
25:48Well, Ava's a very smart woman.
25:51And unfortunately, this is your only choice right now.
25:55Drew has to be completely convinced that you are playing by his rules.
26:01I have this feeling that you don't like me, Miss Davis.
26:06I don't know you.
26:08But I certainly don't like what I've heard about you.
26:12Such as?
26:13Such as you held my grandson's father, Jason Morgan, captive in Africa.
26:20That wasn't very nice.
26:22Beyond that, I hate it here.
26:25So if you could just tell me why you asked me here so I could get going.
26:30I did make some mistakes in Africa.
26:33In my defense, that is how business is done there.
26:37You refer to kidnapping and human rights violations as mistakes.
26:42That's interesting.
26:44I have no intention of conducting business in Port Charles in the same way.
26:48Oh, okay, that's great to hear.
26:50But with all due respect, I don't care.
26:53Because I have no plans of representing you or doing any kind of business with you.
26:58It's not what you can or cannot do for me.
27:03It's what I can do for you.
27:06Or more specifically, what I can give you.
27:09That was the most impressive thing I've seen you do yet.
27:12Wait, what?
27:14It took a lot of nerve to defy me.
27:16And you've done it twice.
27:18Once in defense of Scout, and just now it's a lot more to you than meets the eye.
27:23My family would learn from your example.
27:27Thank you for saying that.
27:29I know you have your reasons for how you feel about Sonny, but so do I.
27:34That is undoubtedly true.
27:38It was really hard for me when my mom passed, but Uncle Sonny made sure that I was okay.
27:45Some days it really wasn't.
27:51And my Aunt Lois obviously helped too, but Uncle Sonny made sure that I was always good.
28:00Sonny's very loyal to the people he cares about.
28:04But then with my mom, it was like I was spinning.
28:08But Sonny supported my love of music, and it gave me a purpose.
28:13I can't tell you how many violin recitals and concerts he sat through, but I don't know what I would have done without him.
28:24It doesn't matter how old you are, it's always really painful to lose your mother.
28:28Just as Sonny is loyal to the people that he cares about, Gio, so am I.
28:35And my interaction with Sonny today had less to do with my obvious dislike of him, and more to do with my concern for you.
28:49You're a great fit for the ER.
28:52It'd be nice to have a familiar face down here.
28:54For me too. I love it down here. It's exciting.
28:58I'm happy to help wherever I'm needed, but it's nice to have that instant gratification of helping patients get treated right away.
29:06Thank you. All the kids at school are going to be jealous when they see this.
29:11Hey, well, I'm happy to help you get some street cred.
29:13Thank you, James.
29:15All the kids at school are going to be jealous when they see this.
29:17Hey, well, I'm happy to help you get some street cred.
29:20Thank you, James is a very big fan. He and his grandfather watch you play every Saturday during football season.
29:27It wasn't a bad one, but that was the first time I ever heard my grandpa swear.
29:33Oh, I hope that your physical therapy is going well and you'll be back on the team next season, if that's what you want.
29:41Thank you. I do have some opportunities coming up that I'm really excited about.
29:45And one of them is right here in the pediatrics week.
29:48Really? Well, if this guy is any indication, you should be as big a success in pediatrics as you were on the football field.
29:57We'll be rooting for you.
30:06Where's the fire, counselor?
30:08Oh, no fire. I just had a lot to do.
30:10Did you find who you were looking for earlier?
30:13Yeah, yeah, I did. It was Portia.
30:16I'm sorry. I just got to go. I'll see you later.
30:23I got your text.
30:30I assume that means that you've given my offer some thought.
30:35I have. I have.
30:38And as long as you agree not to tell what you know, I will absolutely do what you ask.
30:43I'll convince Curtis to have a meeting with you so that you guys can bury the hatchet and mend your friendship.
30:50Good. Glad you finally came to your senses.
30:55Believe me, there's nothing you could have that I would want.
31:00How can you be so sure?
31:02Windermere Castle? Spoon Island? Your family's estate, was it not?
31:07I understand that you're new to Port Charles, but you clearly don't know very much about my family.
31:13Whatever you've got there, I don't want it. Feel free to burn it. In fact, I encourage it.
31:20I would never burn anything as beautiful and intriguing as this.
31:38I'm glad we talked about this.
31:40We do.
31:42And as for dismissing your opinions about a scout and...
31:47Drew, I misspoke. I'm sorry I said what I said.
31:52It's fine. I overstepped.
31:54I regret what I said.
31:58Scout is very lucky to have someone like you looking out for her.
32:02And while I certainly understand the reasons for your loyalty to Sonny, I...
32:10I just hope that it never ends up costing you someday.
32:17Alexis, give me a call when you can.
32:21Yeah, I got a signed document from Geo for you and Diane.
32:28And listen, I'll just send it over as soon as you call.
32:37Before you say anything, Tracy is wrong.
32:40And I am here to apologize on behalf of everyone who isn't her.
32:44She had no right to stick her nose into whatever arrangement you and Geo got going on.
32:48I don't give a damn what Tracy thinks of me.
32:52I just want Geo to have the best possible life he can have.
32:57Let me ask you a question.
32:59Do you think I should stay away from him?
33:03You know, in the past, I would have...
33:06rushed out of here and gone straight to Sonny's and...
33:09told him everything that you just told me.
33:13Because family's everything to him.
33:17But I'm not gonna do that because family's everything to me.
33:20And in this situation, Brooklyn is Bobby.
33:25I know how hard it was for my mom to give me up for adoption.
33:29And I know that it haunted her for years.
33:32I think Brooklyn has been through enough.
33:34And I'm not gonna add to it by exposing her secret.
33:38I hadn't really thought about how similar their situations are.
33:42And it's not just that, you know.
33:45I may not have given up a baby,
33:47but I know a lot about making hard decisions to protect my children.
33:51Seems like the least we can do.
33:54That's why I passed Michael off as Jason's.
33:58So I could protect him from Adrian.
34:02And Robin blew that secret up.
34:05And wrecked our lives in the process.
34:08And you think that's what I'm doing?
34:11I don't know.
34:13Are you?
34:15Robin did have...
34:17I know I shouldn't have lied.
34:19But I did what I thought was best for my kid.
34:23Just like my mom.
34:25Just like Brooklyn.
34:27And just like you when you broke into Martin's room.
34:31Because you were looking for information that would lead you to Charlotte.
34:35We're just moms.
34:37Doing whatever we can for our kids.
34:41I can't argue with a single word.
34:45And I wish I could.
34:49Did anything I say help you?
34:53I'm still not sure.
34:56I think I'll get the clarity I'm looking for when I look into Dante's eyes.
35:03One look and I'll know whether I can keep Brooklyn's secret.
35:10Or if I have to tell Dante everything.
35:15Or if I have to tell Dante everything.
