Sonny and Miranda's Room, Wyndemere: Miranda(and Mike carrying Sonny in his arms enter)Mike, put him down on the bed. Mike(begins to lower Sonny to the bed when Sonny starts clutching at him)Michael, let me go. It's all right. Nobody's going to hurt you.(he turns to Miranda)Is that a good sign that he's coming out of this? Miranda:Mike, I'm sure on some level Sonny's aware of everything that's going on around him, but he's not going to be all right until he gets some medical treatment. Speaking of which, I'd better call Kevin Collins so we can get the ball rolling. Bobbie's Room, General Hospital: Bobbie:(opens her eyes to find Luke sleeping in a chair by her bed and Stefan staring out the window)Stefan, what happened? Stefan:(rushes over to Bobbie's bedside)Barbara, thank God you're awake. How are you feeling? Luke(jerks awake)Baby sister? Bobbie(looks around)Where am I? Luke:The hospital. I brought you here after you came to me at the club. Bobbie(suddenly remembers everything)Helena! I saw her slipping something into the cup of hot chocolate she was going to give me. Then I remembered all the times she'd given me something to eat or drink and I'd realized she'd been poisoning me. When I confronted her, she admitted it. Stefan, you're mother is insane. Stefan:No, Barbara, my mother's not crazy. That implies my mother didn't know what she was doing and isn't responsible for her actions. Helena knew exactly what she was doing. I don't know why people must always label people crazy instead of just accepting the fact that sometimes there are just some people in the world that are just pure evil. Evil people do evil things like poisoning you. Barbara, my mother isn't crazy, my mother is just evil. It's a fact I've lived with since I was little more than a child. Luke:You two need to talk. I'll leave you two alone.(he exits) Bobbie:What's wrong with my big brother? Stefan:He's feeling a modicum of gratitude to me at the moment. But I'm sure by tomorrow he'll have gotten over it. Barbara, when you realized my mother was poisoning you, why didn't you come to me? Why did you use your last ounce of strength to get Luke? Didn't you think I'd help you? Or did you think I was in on it with my mother? Bobbie:Helena made it clear you weren't. That she was going to use my health against you to force you to hand over power of the family to her. Stefan, you don't know what it was like hearing someone tell you they're poisoning you. Eventhough I suspected Helena was poisoning me, I don't think I really believed it until Helena actually admitted it to me. I wasn't thinking clearly. All I could think about was what Luke warned me about was actually happening. And all I could think of was getting to my big brother so he could protect me. Stefan:Well, it's all over now. You'll be completely well soon. Bobbie:How? Stefan:Helena gave us the antidote and it's been given to you. Bobbie:Why would she do that? She told she was was going to let me die unless you handed over power of everything to her. Stefan:Because I gave her what she wanted. Bobbie:What! Why? Stefan:Barbara, I did it for you. I love you. I couldn't let you die when it was within my power to save you. Bobbie:You love me? Stefan:Yes, I do. Don't ask me how long I've loved you or when it happened, because I don't know. Maybe it happened that night I saw this woman crying on her front stoop on her birthday as her birthday party was going on inside her brownstone. I just don't know. I was just so consumed with my obsession for Lasha, which I then transferred to Katherine, so I was completely unaware of my true feelings for you. But the question remains. How do you feel about me? I know you loved me once, but do you still love me? Bobbie:I love you, Stefan. Believe me, there's been times I wished I didn't. I've tried very hard not to love you. You haven't treated me very well and you hurt me badly in the past. Stefan(kisses Bobbie's hand)Well, that's all over, now. It's in the past. From now on we're going to have a happy future. I promise to make up to you for the way I treated you in the past. Bobbie:(smiling)You know, Stefan, for the first time I actually believe that. You gave up everything for me. No man has ever done that for me before. You really do love me. By the way, did the police arrest Helena, yet? I really hope she rotting in some jail cell, as we speak. Stefan:Why would you think my mother was arrested? Bobbie:Because she poisoned me. She tried to kill me. Stefan:Barbara, you have to let this go and put it all behind you. Just concentrate on our future together. Bobbie:Put it all behind me? Let it go? That woman poisoned me. Do you know what I went through. I thought I was dying from some terminal disease. I want her arrested and put behind bars where she can never do to anyone else what she did to me. Stefan:Barbara, my mother is back in power. Do you even comprehend how dangerous she is. Just think about what she did to Laura and Leslie Webber. We just have to let Mother enjoy her victory and not do anything to bring her wrath down upon us. Then when she's off guard, I'll take stage another coup against her. Bobbie:That old witch poisons me and not only am I not expected to see her punished for it, I'm supposed to stand idly by while she profits from it until some mystical day in the future when you can take her down, again? Is that what you're telling me? Stefan:I know you don't like it, but if you try to make Helena pay for what she did to you, she'll come after you and there's no telling what she'll do to you. I may not be able to protect you from her. Hallway outside of Sonny and Miranda's Room, Wyndemere: Kevin(Mike and Miranda exit the room)I've already talked to Sonny's previous doctor and I concur with his opinion that he suffers from bipolar disorder. Miranda:Are you willing to swear to that in a court of law in case Taggert tries to say Sonny's faking this? Kevin:Of course. Mike:Jason called and he told me has has Justus sending for a copy of Michael's medical records so they'll be prepared for when Taggert makes his move against Sonny. Kevin:I think it would be for the best if Sonny's admitted to Mercy Hospital instead of GH. That way it'll take Taggert awhile to track Sonny down. Maybe it'll even be long enough so Justus can go to Dara Jensen and get the charges dropped against Sonny.(Dirk watches as they head downstairs, then slips into Sonny's room) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
