Nobody Leaves Manor:
Brenda(as she and Jax enter)Well, Jax, was the bridal shower everything 
I told you it wold be.
Jax:That and a whole lot more.
Brenda:Good, I'm going upstairs to bed now. Goodnight.
John(comes out of the living room)Did I just hear right? You went to a 
bridal shower.
Jax:It's all Carly Corinthos' fault. She told me she thought Corinthos 
and Brender were going to meet up somewhere, tonight. So I went along 
when Brender went to this bridal shower at Robin's, tonight, and it was 
the most boring evening I've ever spent in my life. When is Uncle Frank 
going to make his move against Corinthos, anyway.
John:He's got everything in place. He should be putting his plan into 
action any day now.
Jax:Are you sure this will make Corinthos stay away from Brender until I 
have my revenge against her.
John:Corinthos left Brenda at the altar because there was a contract on 
his life and he wanted to protect her. He let her go so she could have a 
happy life without him. What Moreno has in store for Corinthos will make 
him do the same thing all over, again.

The Office, Luke's Club:
Luke(as he enters)Tell me I didn't lock lips with that tarantula for 
nothing. Please don't tell me you didn't find the tape.
Sonny:I didn't find the tape.
Luke:I asked you not to tell me that. Did you search the entire boat?
Sonny:I left no stone unturned. The boudoir was the last place I had 
left to search and I gave it a thorough once-over. I tell you, Luke, 
that's one place you don't want to get caught in. That place is a 
veritable smut palace. I don't know how Dr. Jones can perform in that 
place. Especially with you looking down at him.
Luke:Excuse me? What is that supposed to mean?
Sonny:Oh, you don't know she has a picture of you hanging in her bedroom 
facing the bed.
Luke:You're kidding, right?
Sonny:No, it was real hard to miss.
Luke:I'm almost afraid to ask. Just what kind of picture is it. Describe 
it to me.
Sonny:(makes a face)If you insist. You were wearing on a bearskin rug in 
the buff.
Luke:Please tell me I was laying on my stomach?
Sonny:No, you were laying on your back in a rather suggestive pose. 
Whether or not it was anatomically correct, only you could say for sure. 
I guess she thought it was only fair since you had a nudie picture of 
her hanging on her wall that she'd put one up of you. By the way, is 
there any way she could know your exact proportions?
Luke:No, there isn't. If I ever did her it would rot off.
Sonny:(enjoying teasing him)You know, I can just picture her bouncing up 
and down on her waterbed getting off looking at you.
Luke:Would you stop it, Corinthos, you're giving me the creeps. How'd 
you feel if she had a dirty picture of you hanging on her wall. So you 
didn't find anything while you were searching her yacht.
Sonny:I didn't say that. Does the name Virginia Benson mean anything to 
you?
Luke:That's the name of Carly's adoptive mother, why?
Sonny(pulls out the cancelled checks)Her name is on all these cancelled 
checks I found in her safe.
Luke:Don't you think Helena's going to miss these from her safe.
Sonny:I thought I'd slip them back in before Helena even notices they 
were gone.
Luke:You got off on breaking into Helena's yacht and sneaking around, 
didn't you?
Sonny:It was exciting especially when Helena showed up and she could 
have found me at any moment. I always thought it would be cool to be a 
cat burglar.
Luke(thumbing through the cancelled checks)These things go back for over 
two decades. And they're for the same amount every month.
Sonny:You think it's hush money?
Luke:Yeah, but for what. I met Virginia Benson. A nicer woman you could 
never want to meet. What could she possibly know that Helena wants kept 
quiet. Another thing, this first payment Helena made to Virginia Benson 
coincides with the date Bobbie gave Carly up for adoption to her.
Sonny:I could understand Helena being interested in Bobbie's daughter's 
adoptive mother, but these payments began long before you whacked Mikkos 
Cassadine on that island.
Luke:I know. If these payments Helena made to Virginia Benson had 
something to do with Carly and Bobbie, I don't like what that suggests. 
That means the Cassadines had an interest in the Spencer family long 
before I had my deadly encounter with Mikkos Cassadine.
Sonny:And if that's the case we'd better find out about it and fast.

Helena's Yacht:
Helena(as Bobbie enters)I was surprised when I got your phone call 
asking for us to meet privately to discuss a matter of concern to both 
of us. I assume it involves my husband and your son?
Bobbie:I thought we should get together woman-to-woman without Stefan 
and Tony around to muddy the waters.
Helena:And why would you think that.
Bobbie:Let's be frank with each other, Mrs. Cassadine. You don't really 
want to be raising a small child at your time in life. That was Tony's 
idea, wasn't it?
Helena:And what if it was.
Bobbie:I thought perhaps we should negotiate together for a better deal. 
One that's both satisfying to both of us.
Helena:What sort of deal?
Bobbie:I'll agree to testify for Tony in exchange for you convincing 
Tony not to try to take custody of Lucas away from me.
Helena:And why would I do that. It's already been agreed that you'd 
testify in my husband's behalf.
Bobbie:Yes, but you hadn't heard all of the deal I'm offering you. Until 
tonight I wasn't aware that you wanted back the painting Luke had of you 
hanging in the club.
Helena:As I'm sure you're aware, Luke no longer has it in his 
possession. My son does and he'll never give it to me, willingly.
Bobbie:But I know where he keeps it and I could give it back to you if 
sufficiently motivated.
Helena:And how would I sufficiently motivate you, my dear.
Bobbie:By trading the painting for the tape you have of me and Stefan 
and agreeing not to force me to give up custody of my son to you and 
Tony.
Helena:Stefan will never agree to it.
Bobbie:I'm not asking Stefan to agree. Just like I know Tony won't agree 
to it, either. But, as I said, this deal is just between you and I.
Helena:And what if I don't agree to this.
Bobbie:Then I'm afraid I'll have to go through with Stefan's plan, 
distasteful as I find it.
Helena:And what is Stefan's plan?
Bobbie:For me to convince Tony he still has a chance with me and to 
trick him into betraying you by trying to steal the tape from you.
Helena;And do you think you can succeed?
Bobbie:You tell me, Mrs. Cassadine. Tony is as obsessed with me as 
Stefan was with Laura. If Laura had played Stefan could she have gotten 
him to betray you?
Helena:She did and he did.
Bobbie:Then do we have ourselves a deal?
Helena:Yes, we have a deal. You bring me my painting and I'll consider 
us even. I'll convince Tony that a child's place is with his mother.
Bobbie:(shakes Helena's hand)It's good doing business with you, Mrs. 
Cassadine.
Helena:You'll lose Stefan for this, you know. He'll never forgive you 
for giving me back my painting.
Bobbie:That's a risk I'll just have to take. Right now, Lucas and his 
future is what counts the most to me now.
