Jax's Penthouse: Jax(is puzzled when his key won't fit into the lock of the front door)I know this is the right key. Why won't it fit? Ned:(comes up behind him)Because I had the lock changed. I'm evicting you, Jax. Jax:You can't do that. Ned:I already have. When you've found a new place to live, just inform the deak and your things will be sent there at no cost to you. Jax:Do you really think I'm going to let you get away with this? Nobody gets away with doing this to me. Ned:No, I'm sure it's usually you whose the one whose doing this to someone else. If you'd succeeded in taking over ELQ, you would have done the same thing to me and my family what I've just done to you. As for you not letting me get away with this. What can you really do to me? You have no power. I own J&J Jacks of Alaska. I've wiped you and your brother Jerry out. You have nothing left. Why you might even have to resort to getting an allowance from mommy and daddy to tie you over until you can get back on your feet. That's if you don't spend the rest of your life in prison for killing Katherine Bell. Jax:You bastard. Ned:Come on, Jax, haven't you ever heard that what goes around comes around. You've been dishing it out for years, now it's your turn to take it. Backroom at Luke's: Luke:May I get you boys something to drink. Mahoney:Nothing for me. Dougan:I'll take a scotch rocks. Harris:Same for me. Lafferty:I'll have a whiskey straight. Johnson:Nothing for me, either. Mahoney:WHy have you asked us here, Spencer? Luke:I think you know. Dougan:About Morgan's arrest? Luke:It should have never happened. It wouldn't have happened if Frank was in charge. For that matter, sonny wouldn't have done something so stupid, either. Harris:We all know Morgan's a hot-head, especially when it comes to anyone harming Sonny. He's very protective of Sonny. Lafferty:But when Sonny ran-off, Morgan stepped in and kept everything running smoothly. Luke:But for how long, Lafferty. What if someone tries to hurt Sonny, again? Brenda Barrett was Sonny's blindspot and we know how she brought Sonny down. He didn't think when it came to her. And Sonny is Jason's blindspot and Jason doesn't think when it comes to Sonny. Jason(enters)You don't mind if I join you, do you? Since I'm the topic of conversation, I think it's only fair I be given a chance to defend myself. Luke:So they let you out. How did you find out about this meeting? Nikolas:(enters)I told him. Luke:And they say blood is thicker than water. A Room Above Kelly's Diner: Brenda(opens the door to Jax)Jax! Jax:Brender, I've been looking all over town for you. Brenda:So they've let you out. Have they dropped the charges against you? Jax:Not yet. But I'm working on it.(he pulls her into his arms and buries his nose in her hair)Oh, Brender, I'm so sorry about all the things I said to you. I know now you never betrayed me with Sonny. Brenda:You do? Jax:It was Ashton. He was setting me up. But it doesn't matter. Once I get out of this mess I'm going to destroy him. Brenda:Why would Ned want to set you up? Jax:He's taken over J&J Jacks of Alaska. I've lost everything. But that doesn't matter. Not as long as I've got you. Brenda:I figured something was wrong when Ned told me he was throwing us out of the Port Charles Hotel, but I never imagined anything like this. Oh, Jax, darling, what will you do now? Jax:I've made a deal with Cassadine. He's agreed to get me out of this mess if I help him break up Sonny and Mirander before their wedding. Brenda(gets a crafty look in her eye)Oh, really. How do you intend to do that? Jax:I'm going to have to seduce her into my bed. But I swear, Brender, it'll mean absolutely nothing to me. I need to know you'll understand why I have to do this. Brenda:Oh, Jax, darling, of course I understand. You have to do what you have to do. It'll be just business. I know I'm the only one you love and want. You've proven that to me time and again. Jax:Thank you for understanding Brender. But, unfortunately, until this is all over we're going to have to pretend we're on the outs. Do you think you can do that? Brenda:I'll be difficult, Jax, darling, but somehow I'll manage it. V's Apartment: V(answers the door to Stefan)Mr. Cassadine, what can I do for you? Stefan:May I come in? V:Of course. Stefan:What I've come to tell you may come as a shock, but I assure you it's true. V:What is it? Stefan:Miss Ardanowski, you're my sister Natasha. V:(collapses on the couch)That's impossible. Stefan:I assure you it's true. Your mother Kristen had an affair with my father Mikkos and you were the product of that affair. After your mother died, you were sent to live with Asteroid Ardanowski. And now that I've found you, I want you to come home with me and take your rightful place in the Cassadine family. Will you? Wyndemere: Sonny(enters)I stopped by the chapel on my way up and it's almost completely renovated. What do you think the chances are of us moving the wedding date up? Miranda:Slim to none. The invitations have already been sent out. How did things go with Jason? Sonny:He's out on bail and headed to Luke's for a showdown with Luke to see who'll be mob boss. I don't think there'll be any violence, but this meeting will decided if Jason retains his position of power or if Luke succeeds him. Miranda:What do you think the outcome will be? Sonny:It's too close to call. Both Luke and Jason have their strengths and weaknesses. Let's talk about something else. Miranda:All right, where do you want to live after the wedding? Sonny:I thought we'd continue to live here. Miranda:Here? You and Stefan wage a daily war. Wouldn't it be better if we moved some place else. Sonny:I'm not stupid enough to think even after we're married your brother's not going to stop trying to get me out of your life. So I'd prefer to keep an eye on him so I know what he's up to. Miranda:If that's what you want. But I'm not sure if Wyndemere is big enough for the both of you. Sonny:Well, if it isn't, I won't be the one who leaves.(he pulls her into his arms)You know since Luke's is closed tonight I have the whole night free. What are we doing down here when there's a bed upstairs just waiting for us? Miranda:I'll race you up.(as they race towards the stairs they hear someone banging on the front door) Sonny(yells)I'll get it, Mrs. Lansbury.(he opens the door to Jax)What are you doing here, Candyboy. I thought you were in jail. Jax(enters)You can bring them in here.(he instructs an employee from the Port Charles Hotel who sets his luggage down in the foyer) Sonny:What's going on? Jax:I'm moving in, Corinthos. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
