Back Room, Luke's Club: Sonny(as Brenda enters)I knew you'd be coming by here sooner or later. Brenda:Don't you think we should talk about what happened? Sonny:I'm sorry I ran out on you like that. I shouldn't have done it. I just panicked. You just threw too much at me, too soon. I thought I'd lost you forever and I'd accepted that. Then you told me you loved me and we made love. I don't want to hurt you, again. And I don't want to be hurt. That's why I ran. All we ever seems to do when we get together is to end up hurting each other. Brenda:This thing between us has scared you, again, hasn't it. This isn't the first time you've tried to run from it. You did the same thing when you married Lily. You know, I think the reason people like Jax and Julia see our relationship as sick and obsessive is because our feelings for each other are so strong and they go so deep that to outsiders our love seems addictive and unnatural because that can't understand it. Sonny:At times neither can we. You like to liken us to a force of nature. Well, forces of nature like hurricanes and tornadoes leave nothing but destruction in their paths. I'm not sure I have it in me to give this thing between us another shot. Everytime we give thing thin between us another try, the devastation left behind is worse than the time before. If we five it one more chance, this thing between us might completely destroy us, this time. Brenda:You know, they say if you love someone, you should set them free and if they truly belong to you they'll come back to you all on their own. That's what you did to me. You loved me and you let me go and it took me a while, but I've finally come back to you. So I have to do the same to you. I have to have faith that if I let you go, you'll come back to me, too. That you'll realize what I have. That as scary as it is to give us another try, I'll never truly be happy or at peace without you. So I'm not going to stalk you or pressure you in anyway. I'm going to let you come back to me all on your own, and it'll be that much sweeter when you do.(Brenda sees Benny enter and she wraps her arms around Sonny and kisses him. Benny stands frozen in shock as they continue kissing each other for several minutes)Just remember I love you and no matter how long it takes, I'll be waiting for you. Sonny:I love you, too. That's never been the problem. Brenda:I'd better go now.(she pretends like she just spotted Benny standing there)Oh, hello, Benny. Nice to see you, again.(she turns back to Sonny as she exits)I'll see you, later, baby. Benny:You'e starting up with her, again, aren't you. Sonny:Benny, don't start. Benny:You know how the boys feel about your relationship with her. You, her and the mob don't mix. Time and again it's only lead to disasterous results. When the boys find out about this you do know there's going to be trouble. They'll make you choose between them and her. Sonny, you know you can't have them both, anymore. Those days are over with. Sonny's Penthouse: Bobbie:So, you'll come to dinner, tonight, you and Sonny, both? Carly:No problem. Bobbie:And you'll make a point of trying to make Katherine and Nikolas uncomfortable about the age thing. Carly:Sure, I'll save Cousin Nicky from big, bad, Katherine Bell, but I need something from you in return. Bobbie, you're a nurse. You have access to certain drugs. Do you think you could get me some Viagra? Bobbie:Carly, what do I look like? Your friendly neighborhood drug dealer. And why do you wnat some Viagra for, anyway? Carly:Why do you think? Bobbie:Sonny's having a problem in the bedroom? Carly:Why do you find that so hard to believe? Bobbie:Sonny always seemed to me to be a very sexual person what with all those smoldering looks he's always giving everyone. He's the last person I'd ever think of as having a problem performing in bed. Carly:Well he does. He hasn't been able to perform since Brenda Barrett returned to town. Bobbie, Sonny only married me so the Quartermaines wouldn't take Michael away from me. But we're trying to build a real marriage and this sexual problem isn't helping matters. Bobbie, you know how men get when they can't perform. They're very senstive about that kind of thing. Sonny's problem is just mental, not physical. He had no problem performing before that twit came back to town. So I figured if I could slip Sonny a couple of Viagra without him knowing it, he's just think the problem solved itself all on its own. Bobbie:Carly, didn't you learn your lesson about drugging men with AJ. Carly:Bobbie, it's not like I'm going to dump Sonny in an alley and pour booze all over him. I'm going to give him a good time. So, what's the harm. Bobbie:I don't know... Carly:Come on, Bobbie, just a few little pills from you and Sonny and I will be making you a grandmother, again. Bobbie:All right, I'll think about it, but I'm not making you any promises. Carly(kisses her on the cheek as she walks out the door)That's all I can ask.(she closes the door and leans back against it)If Bobbie doesn't come through for me, I suppose I could go up to Tony's creepy cabin and find one of his old prescription pads and forge a prescription for Viagra from Dr. Cuckoobird. Then once I have then in my hot little hands, I'll just find a way to slip Sonny some without him knowing it. If they work as good as everyone claims they do, then Sonny will think I'm the one having that kind of effect on his body. That just being around me is turning him on. And if I keep feeding Sonny them, I might even be able to convince him that's he's starting to fall in love with me.(she smirks)They'll be my own private little love potion. Luke(comes down the stairs)I know that look. What are you up to and who are you going to do it to? Carly:Just be grateful I'm not going to do it to you.(she watches him enter the kitchen)I'm really going to have to get rid of him. Jason's Bike Shop: Sonny(storms in)I just had a little chat with Benny. Why did you tell Benny I slept with Brenda? And more importantly how did you know. Jason:I thought he had a right to know since your relationship with Brenda will effect your ability to lead the mob. Sonny:Oh, so that's your game. You think if you can undermine me with Benny and the others they'll turn to you to lead them, again, instead. Jason, that's never going to happen. You sold them out to Moreno. Jason:I was happy to settle for being your righthand, but you wouldn't let me. So now I'm going to take the whole ball of wax. Sonny:Didn't I teach you anything about loyalty? Jason:You've stolen my life. Carly, Michael and the mob belonged to me, first, and you've stolen them from me. Sonny:Jason, you walked away from the mob and you chose Robin. You didn't nonestly think you could have Robin and Michael both, did you? Look, Jason, even if you sabotage me from becoming head of the mob, it won't get you back the position you threw away. I told you before. You've burned all your bridges behind you and for you, there's no going back. The Brownstone: Tony(places a speaker inside the vent in Bobbie's bedroom, then screws the grate back in place and smiles evilly)Now not only can I hear you, Bobbie, you're going to be able to hear me, too. Won't that me fun? Who Will Tell Nik The Truth About His Paternity, First?
