Port Charles County Jail:
Ned(stands outside of Jax's cell)Hello, Jax.
Jax:Ned, am I ever glad to see you. Have you come to get me out of here? 
I called Justus, but he hasn't arrived yet.
Ned:(smirking)And he isn't going to. I debated with myself if I should 
leave you in the dark or not. But where would be the fun in that. I want 
you to know whose behind your misery and suffering.
Jax:What are you talking about?
Ned:I set you us, Jax. With a little help from Grandfather and Alan. And 
it was ridiculously easy to do so. But then you're so easy to manipulate 
when it comes to Brenda.
Jax:Brender?
Ned:That's right, Brenda. You see, I planted that stuff...Sonny's 
cologne, hair, cuff link, wallet, you name it...in your bedroom so you'd 
become convinced Sonny and Brenda were having an affair and you bought 
it hook, line and sinker.
Jax:Why would you want to do that?
Ned:Why so you'd end up exactly where you are. In jail.
Jax:You set me up?
Ned:Isn't that what I said.
Jax:Why? What do you have to gain?
Ned:Why everything you own, of course. You see while you're a guest of 
the city, I've already taken over J & J Jacks of Alaska. Poetic justice 
don't you think. Just how many times have you done to somebody what I've 
just done to you.
Jax:You won't get away with this. I'll tell the police you set me up.
Ned:Go ahead. No one will believe you. It'll just seem like the pathetic 
ravings of a guilty man. How does it feel to be helpless, Jax. I imagine 
you're feeling exactly how all those people did when you took over their 
companies. Goodbye, Jax.

Visitor's Room:
Jason(watches as Robin enters)Amazing. You're not even limping. didn't 
you call me and tell me you'd twisted your ankle in the catacombs?
Robin:Jason, I did it for you. Can't you see how happy we'd be if you'd 
only give up the mob?
Jason:The mob is all I know. It's what I want. It makes me happy.
Robin:I could make you happy. I did make you happy. Look at Sonny. He 
didn't think he could make it outside of the mob and he has. You could 
too.
Jason:There's a big difference between Sonny and I. I'm better at the 
mob than he was. Sonny fell into the mob, while I chose it. Deep down 
Sonny was never really cut-out for the mob, but I am.
Robin:You only think that because you  think that's all you know. You 
could learn something else. I could teach you.
Jason:You know what I think. I think you enjoy yourself in the role of 
teacher with me as your obedient student. Sonny was my teacher and he's 
taught me all I need to know. I like the life I have and I don't want 
any other. Look, Robin, I love you and I always will, but if you can't 
accept who I am and what I do, then there can't be anything between us 
in future. I'm not going to let you take me down the way Brenda did 
Sonny.

Jax's Jail Cell:
Jax:Cassadine, what are you doing here? Have you come to gloat?
Stefan:No, I've come to help you.
Jax:Why?
Stefan:Because I have use of you. I'm sure you're aware Michael and 
Isabella are scheduled to marry in a few weeks time. At one time my 
sister had a tendre for you. I want you to sue whatever warm feeling she 
still has for you to seduce her into your bed and to convince her to 
cancel this wedding.
Jax:I love Brender. I can't do that.
Stefan:Look around you, Mr. Jacks. This is where your love for your 
precious Brender has gotten you. And it's where you're going to stay 
unless you agree to my bargain.
Jax:What makes you so sure you can get me off?
Stefan:My cousin Alexis is a brilliant lawyer. She got Kevin Collins off 
and he was guilty. She can do the same for you. But only if I tell her 
to. And I will if you agree to break up my sister and Mr. Corinthos. So 
do we have a deal?

P.C.P.D, Sean's Office:
Sean:Please sit down, Officier Ardanowski.
V:You're going to fire me, aren't you? I swear I have no idea where that 
bloody shirt came from. I would never conceal evidence no matter what my 
feeling for Mr. Jacks were.
Sean:I know. That's not why I asked you here, Miss Ardanowski. I need 
your help. I'm going to entrust you with knowledge only one other person 
in Port Charles knows. My job as police commissioner is just a cover for 
a WSB operation.
V:Why are you telling me this?
Sean:Because for whatever reason, Stefan Cassadine wants you off the 
police force. I believe Mr. Cassadine has some kind of plan for you and 
I need to find out what it is. So I'm going to make it look like I fired 
you. And if he should approach you afterwards, I need you to come to me 
and tell me what he wants from you. Will you do that?
V:Of course, sir, but I can't imagine why Stefan Cassadine would be 
interested in me.
Sean:That's what I'm hoping we'll be able to find out.

Visitor's Room, Port Charles County Jail:
Jason:Nikolas, what are you doing here?
Nikolas:I heard something at Jake's that I thought you should be made 
aware of. My fa...Luke is having a meeting tonight at his club. He's 
invited most of your key people. Speculation around the pool hall is 
he's moving in to take over your business.
Jason:So Sonny was right. Luke isn't wasting any time.
Nikolas:What are you going to do?
Jason:Justus should have me out of here withing the hour. I think I'll 
just show up at Luke's little meeting.
