Quartermaine Mansion:
Lois(enters)Hello, Reggie.
Reginald:Mrs. Corinthos.
Lois:I'm here to pick up Brooke. It's time she came home with me.
Edward:(comes out of the living room)You're not taking that child 
anywhere with you.
Lois:Mr. Q, when I left Brooke here whilie I moved into the penthouse I 
made it clear I was only leaving her here until I got settled there.
Edward:What you mean is you left that innocent child here while you went 
to cohabitate with that degenerate you married.
Lois:I'm not going to argue with you. I'm going upstairs to get 
Brooke.(she heads upstairs)
Ned(appears at the top of the stairs and blocks her way up)You're not 
taking my daughter anywhere.
Lois:Ned, you're back.
Ned:That's right, I'm back.
Edward(wearing a nasty smile)I told Ned about the disgusting display you 
and Corinthos put on last night at the Outback.
Lois:Ned, if you'd just let me explain I could make you understand.
Ned:Oh, I understand perfectly. You've always wanted him, haven't you. 
Ever since you were a kid. You even wanted to name our child after him 
if Brooke had been a boy. Well, I hope he's worth it, because he just 
cost you your child.
Lois:What are you talking about.
Ned:I'm taking you to court and suing you for custody of Brooke and 
until the case is decided, Brooke will remain here with me.

Underground Parking Garage, Harborview Towers:
Jason(comes off the elevator and spots Carly laying on the ground. He 
rushes over to her)Carly? Carly, are you all right? Carly?
Carly(moans as she comes around)Jason? What happened?
Jason:You tell me.
Carly:(sits up)I remember walking to the elevator when someone grabbed 
me from behind and then everything went black.
Jason:(notices a handkerchief laying on the ground next to Carly. He 
picks it up and sniffs it)Chloroform.
Carly:Chloroform! Jason, what are you saying? That someone purposely 
knocked me out.
Jason:It looks that way.
Carly:Why?
Jason:I don't know, but you can be sure somebody's up to no good.
Carly:Maybe it was just a robbery.
Jason:Is anything missing?
Carly:(goes through her purse)No.(she looks down at her wrist)Oh, no!
Jason:What's wrong?
Carly:My bracelet's missing. Virginia Benson gave it to me as a 
graduation present. My name is engraved on it.(she starts looking around 
on the ground for it)Where could it have fallen to. I've got to find it, 
Jason. It's irreplaceable.
Jason(takes Carly by the arm and helps her to her feet)Come on, Carly, 
let's go upstairs.
Carly:What about my bracelet?
Jason:Something tells me it isn't here.

General Hospital:
Alexis(slips into the  supply closet and puts on surgical scrubs and 
ties a mask over her face to conceal her identity. She looks at her 
watch)Stefan said the nurses check on Carla Solieto every hour. I've got 
about five minutes to get to her room.(she slips out of the supply 
closet and heads to Carla's room)

The Brownstone:
Jerry(as Bobbie storms in)So, did Cassadine sign the divorce papers.
Bobbie:No, and he told me he doesn't plan to, either.
Jerry:I hate to say I told you so.
Bobbie:Then don't.
Jerry:What are you going to do?
Bobbie:According to Justus there's nothing much I can do. I can file for 
divorce, but there's no guarantee I can get one if Stefan contests it. 
Still, I told Justus to serve Stefan with divorce papers, anyway, so 
he'll know I'm serious and maybe he'll stop spouting this nonsense about 
Cassadines not divorcing and actually give me a divorce if push comes to 
shove.
Jerry:Do you really that that'll happen?
Bobbie:No.
Jerry:You know what you need, Red? You need a change of scenery. Go and 
pack you things.
Bobbie:And just where are you taking me?
Jerry:To a little country inn I know of. You're going to love it. 
They've got a stable so we can rent horses and go for a ride in the 
country and have a picnic and commune with nature. What do you say?
Bobbie:When do we leave?
Jerry:Do you mean it?
Bobbie:I can be packed and ready to leave in an hour. Does that sound 
like I mean it.
Jerry:All right, you go and pack, and I'll go make the reservations.

Carla's Room, General Hospital:
Alexis(enters. She walks over to Carla's hospital bed. By Carla's head 
she lays Carly's bracelet. Next she pulls the pillow our from under 
Carla's head, then watches the door for the first sign the nurse is 
coming in to check on Carla. A few minutes later the door begins to open 
and Alexis carefully positions the pillow of Carla's face)
Amy(enters)What do you think you're doing? Get away from her. Help! 
Somebody, help!
Alexis(knocks Amy down as she runs out of the room and makes her escape)

Sonny and Lois' Penthouse:
Lois(slams the door behind her as she enters)The dirty no good...
Sonny:What happened? Where's Brooke.
Lois:Ned wouldn't let me take her.
Sonny:Ned's back?
Lois:Yeah, Mr. Q told Ned all about us and to say he isn't pleased is 
the understatement of the year. Ned said he's going to sue me for  
custody. Bensonhurst, what am I going to do? I don't know what I'll do 
if they take my child away from me.
Sonny:Don't you mean what are we going to do? We're in this together. 
And the first thing we've got to do is get Brooke out of that house and 
back with us where she belongs. 
Lois:Just how are we going to do that?
Sonny(smiles)I've got a plan.
