The Port Charles Hotel. Sierra's room. 12:30 a.m.
Justin: (getting into bed beside Sierra and turning off the light) "I can't believe we have to get up at six in the morning."
Sierra: (snuggling into his arms) "Get over it. You should be happy that Newsweek wants to do a story on ACBA. After they postponed the first time, I didn't think they would ever come back."
Justin: "I just hope that everyone knows the implications of having our personal lives in a national magazine."
Sierra: (laughing) "Justin, you always sound like such a lawyer." She leans over and kisses him. "You're not on the clock right now."
Justin: (whispering) "I know I'm not on the clock, because you always make me want to break the law, and not be such a law abiding citizen." He kisses her passionately. "And what would the people from Newsweek say if they knew that two of the lawyers from ACBA were living in sin together? Or at least, residing on a regular basis in the same hotel room?"
Sierra: "We're not living together, so they can't say anything. And we're not sleeping together either, so chances are that the story would be pretty damn boring."
Justin: "I don't want this to end."
Sierra: "What do you mean?"
Justin: "My apartment will be done in a week and then I'll be moving there. I won't be able to hold you in my arms all night like I have grown accustomed to doing."
Sierra: "I'm sure we can work something out. Two nights here, two nights there..."
Justin: (before he can stop himself) "Or how about every night there?"
Sierra: (sitting up) "What are you talking about?" Justin doesn't say anything. "Justin?"
Justin: (blurting it out) "I want us to live together."
Sierra: "Are you serious? Justin... us living together?"
Justin: (sitting up) "Sierra, I love you. I love you so much I don't know what I am going to going to do if I have to go home to an empty apartment every night and not smell your sweet perfume and..."
Sierra: "Justin, I don't know if... if...." her voice drops to a whisper. "I just don't want you to be something that I have to survive."
Justin: "Do you love me?"
Sierra: "You know that I do."
Justin: "Than trust me when I tell you this. Sierra, I won't be something you have to survive. I am in this for as long as you want me to be."
Sierra: "And what if I want it forever? Then are you going to run away like other men do? Are you going to mumble something about not wanting to make a commitment and when I come home from work, your bags will be packed?"
Justin: (slightly hurt) "Do you take me for the kind of man who would do something like that?" he frowns and starts to get out of the bed. "Sierra, what is it going to take to prove to you that I love you?"
Sierra: "Stay."
Justin: "You seem like you would rather be alone."
Sierra: "Justin, no. I want you to stay here with me."
Justin: (putting on his clothes) "Sierra, I think that you need some time to decide whether you want to have an adult relationship with me, or if you are going to spend your whole life being afraid of love. Don't let what happened to Gwen stop you from what could be the most amazing relationship ever."
Sierra: (close to tears) "Justin, I'm sorry..."
Justin: (opening the door) "I don't want you to be sorry. I want you to be truthful to me. Do you love me enough to let me prove to you that I am not something you will have to survive? When you make your decision, let me know."
He walks out of the room, leaving Sierra staring after him in shock. She lays back down and begins to cry.
Fifteen minutes later.
There is a knock at the door.
Sierra: (under her breath as she gets out of bed) "I knew you couldn't stay mad at me for long."
She walks to the door and begins to open it, calling out her greeting as it opens.
Sierra: "Justin, I'm sorry."
Woman: "Who's Justin?"
Sierra: (her mouth dropping open) "What the hell are you doing here?"
Woman: "Nice greeting, sis."
Sierra: "Gwen... what are you doing here?"
Gwen: (played by Christie Clark-- ex-Carrie, DAYS) "I wanted to come see my favorite big sister. And besides, I need a favor."
Sierra: "I should have known." she looks suspicious. "Where's Quinn?"
Gwen: "Getting something downstairs." she looks pensive. "There is something I need to tell you..."
Sierra: "Am I going to want to hear this?"
Gwen: "I don't know." She is about to say something else when a young man walks around the corner holding a baby.
Sierra: (shocked) "Whose baby is that? Quinn, it had better not be yours!"
Quinn: (amused) "Hi, Aunt Sierra."
Sierra: "Whose baby is that?"
Quinn points at Gwen. Sierra's mouth drops open, as Gwen's face turns pink.
Gwen: "Sierra," she takes the baby from Quinn. "I'd like you to meet your nephew, Julian Andrew Hudson."
Sierra: "What... when.... who..." she glares at her sister. "He looks about eight months old. How come you didn't tell me you had a baby before this?"
Gwen: (offhandedly) "We've been out of touch. Besides, I was working on this movie and I was so busy."
Sierra: (sharply) "Too busy to pick up the phone to call and say 'Hi, Sierra. I had a baby?'"
Gwen: "I..."
Sierra: (shouting) "Gwen... how could you be so irresponsible? Do Mom and Dad even know?"
Gwen shakes her head as the baby yawns.
Sierra: (putting her hands on her hips) "And why do I have the feeling that this surprise visit is along the lines of you want me to be the extended babysitter?"
Gwen: (annoyed) "Why don't you let us come in and I will explain everything."
Sierra: (to Quinn) "Quinn, Sweetie, do you think you could go watch TV in my room? It's the one on the right. I would like to talk to your mother in private."
Quinn: "Sure." he heads off into the bedroom.
Gwen: (sitting down on the couch, conversationally) "Can you believe how tall Quinn has gotten? What happened to my little boy?"
Sierra: (before she can stop herself) "Well, you have a new one to play with now."
Gwen: (hurt) "I didn't want to tell you... the father.... he's someone that you would not approve of. You've met him."
Sierra: "Who?"
Gwen: "Kyle Andrews."
Sierra: (shocked) "Your old professor from NYU? How the hell did that happen?"
Gwen: "Well, we had been keeping in touch... he came to town for the weekend and well, we had one night of incredible sex and.... well, that's how Julian came into the picture."
Sierra: "Gwen, how is it that you continue to be totally irresponsible? Does he even know he has a son?"
Gwen: "As a matter of fact, he does. We're seeing each other." Her tone gets defensive. "He's only twelve years older than me."
Sierra: "I... never mind. I don't want to talk about this. Why are you here, Gwen?"
Gwen: "I have a favor to ask." Sierra opens her mouth to say something but Gwen cuts her off. "You know how I did a film for DreamWorks last year? Well, they want me to be the lead costumer for the new Gibson movie."
Sierra: (despite herself) "That's great, Gwen. Congrats."
Gwen: "Well, they're going to be in Paris shooting for the next month. I need someone to watch the kids."
Sierra: "Gwen, I have a job."
Gwen: "I am willing to pay for a nanny while you're at work. I just need someone to be there for them at night. Especially for Julian."
Sierra: "Gwen, why do you always do this? You come swooping down and interrupt my life in order to make yours easier. Quinn must be out of school for the summer by now. Why don't you take the kids to Paris?"
Gwen: "I'll be working. I don't want to have my kids in some strange city where no one speaks English without me around."
Sierra: "Then maybe you shouldn't have taken on this film."
Gwen: "You have got to be kidding me. Sierra, please?"
Sierra: "Absolutely not."
Six forty the next morning. ACBA.
Gregory: �Remember, work with the crew. Don�t do anything to upset them like sneak off during the shoot or being late or anything like that.�
Scott: (looking at his watch) "Speaking of being late, where is Sierra? The crew is going to be here in twenty minutes." No one says anything. "Justin, where is she?"
Justin: (angry) "Why do you think I'm her keeper? I don't know where Sierra is."
Kimberly: "Okay, Jus. Easy now. Are you okay?"
Justin: "I'm fine."
Jillian: (fake sweet) "Aww, is there trouble in paradise? Did you and Sierra have a fight?"
Justin: "You could say that."
Just then, the door slams shut and there are loud footsteps coming down the hall.
Mackenzie: "Good, I bet that's her. Now we can all calm down."
Sierra walks into the room and everyone's jaw drops.
Standing in the center of the room is Sierra, dressed in a black pants suit, her blonde hair up in an upsweep. She is holding Julian in her arms.
Sierra: "Good morning."
Jillian: "Wow, Sierra. You work fast! Why didn't you tell us that you had a child?"
Sierra: (shifting Julian in her arms) "He's not mine, you dimwit. This is my nephew, Julian.� She looks around. �Let�s not make a big deal about this, okay?�
Mackenzie: (coming over to Sierra) �He�s so cute! Can I hold him?�
Sierra: �Sure.� She hands Julian to Mackenzie. �He�s really a friendly baby.�
Mackenzie: (bouncing Julian) �Hello there, cutie pie! Do you want to accompany me over to get some juice? You do?�
Sierra smiles as Mackenzie walks off with Julian. Her smile quickly fades as Justin walks toward her, a grim look on his face.
Justin: �How long are you babysitting him?�
Sierra: �Them.�
Justin: �Them who?�
Sierra: �I�m babysitting Quinn and Julian for a month.�
Justin: �Sierra, you have got to be kidding me! What about us?�
Sierra: (frostily) �I wasn�t aware that �us� was even still a factor.�
Justin: �Sierra, I�� he stops. �Never mind.�
Just then, the photographers walk in carrying armloads of equipment.
Gregory: (going to shake their hands) �Good morning, you guys.� He turns to his co-workers. �Everyone, this is Grant Brenner and Elizabeth Grant from Newsweek. Grant, Elizabeth, this is Justin Vieira, Sierra Hudson, Mackenzie Cassadine, Scott Baldwin, Kimberly Baldwin, Jillian Garrett and�. wait, we�re missing someone. Where�s Alexis?�
Everyone shrugs. Gregory looks like he is going to pass out.
Meanwhile. The boardroom.
Ned and Alexis are lying across the oak table, making love.
Alexis: (breathing hard) �Ned, I have to�. Have to��
Ned: (in a sexy whisper) �Keep making love to your sexy husband?�
Alexis: (moaning) �I have to� get downstairs.�
Ned: �No you don�t.� He buries his face in her neck. �You want to stay here with me.�
Just then, they hear Mackenzie walk by, calling Alexis� name.
Mackenzie: (calling) �Lex, are you up here? Lex? Alexis, Greg and Scott are having a heart attack, so if you�re sleeping in your office, get your butt downstairs right now!�
Alexis: (as her footsteps are heard walking away) �Ned�. Ned, I have to�.�
Ned: (sighing in defeat) �Fine, put your job before me.�
Alexis: (pulling away from him) �You know that�s not the case, Ned. I am more than willing to stay here with you, but I have to go to the photo��
Ned: (sucking on her neck) �Are you SURE?� he gently kisses her neck. �You�re so beautiful, Lex. And I want to�� his voice drops to a whisper. �Show you how beautiful you are. Come on, Alexis, let me make sweet love to you.� He leans over and kisses her breasts, then her stomach.
Alexis: (moaning) �Ned�don�t� you�re gonna get me in trouble�I knew that you walking me up to my office� was a bad idea.�
Ned: (his eyes filled with desire) �Five more minutes?� Alexis doesn�t say anything. �Lexi, come on, you can tell them you were on the phone.�
Alexis doesn�t answer him. She wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him back on top of her.
Meanwhile. Downstairs.
Scott: (clearing his throat) �Well, why don�t we go ahead without Alexis? She�s probably on the phone or something.�
Grant: �Okay, why don�t we start with a staged meeting in your conference room? Do you have one?�
Gregory: �Yeah, it�s up on the second floor. We can take you up there now so you can have a few minutes to set up.�
Grant: �Great.� He and Elizabeth pick up their gear and follow Gregory up the stairs. Scott, Sierra, Kimberly, Justin, Mackenzie and Jillian follow them.
Gregory opens the door to the conference room. His mouth drops open in shock as he spots Ned and Alexis, who are completely oblivious to him standing there. He slams the door shut before anyone else can see Ned and Alexis.
Gregory: (panicking slightly) �Uh� wait, why don�t we start with the group shots? Or maybe the individual shots or something��
Grant: �I thought you were okay with starting with the meeting. That way Mrs. Ashton can join us when she gets off the phone.�
Gregory: �Well, she may be a while, and I don�t want her to miss out� you know, on� being in the spread��
Scott: (with gritted teeth) �Greg, what�s going on here?�
Jillian: (rolling her eyes) �Don�t tell me you�re camera shy, Greg.� She walks over to the door. �Come on, let�s get this part over with so we can move onto the personal profiles and shots.� She smiles flirtatiously at Grant. �So let�s get to it.� Gregory does not say anything. He continues to stand by the door. �Greg, are you deaf or something?� She marches in front of him and before he can do anything, he pushes the door open. �WHAT THE HELL?�
Alexis and Ned look up from their lovemaking to see the group standing in the doorway with their mouths hanging open in shock. Just then, a camera flash goes off. And again. And again.
Ned: (angry) �Enough with the camera! Get the hell out of here! All of you!�
Jillian: �You know, Alexis, you have an office. That way you don�t have to contaminate the boardroom table with your sweat.�
Alexis: �Get out.�
Jillian: �I mean, really. But at least you�re mostly clothed� although I wouldn�t say that a teddy is��
Alexis: �GET OUT!�
Kimberly: �Let�s give them a few minutes to pull themselves together. Come on everyone.� She grabs Jillian by the arm and pulls her out of the room.
Ned: (as the door closes) �Alexis, I am so�� He stands up and starts getting re-dressed.
Alexis: �Don�t tell me you�re sorry. Now I look like a moron.�
Ned: (getting mad) �Alexis, it�s not like you weren�t a willing participant!�
Alexis: �I never said I wasn�t. But don�t apologize to me! There is no need for you to apologize, even if it WAS your idea.�
Ned: �I can�t believe you�re blaming this on me. Alexis, It takes TWO people to have sex.�
Alexis: �Oh, so now you�re calling it sex? What happened to �sweet lovemaking?��
Ned: �I didn�t mean it like that��
Alexis: (cutting him off) �Well, I agree with you. That WAS sex. I mean, I can�t think of another way to describe screwing half-dressed on top of a table.�
Ned doesn�t say anything. He puts on his suit jacket and walks out.
Alexis watches him leave and then after getting dressed, crosses to the door. She opens it. Standing there is Ned.
Alexis: (whispering) �I�m sorry.� He doesn�t say anything. �Ned, I am so, so sorry. I am a horrible wife, and apparently a bitch too.�
Ned: (softening) �You�re not a bitch, sweetheart. But I don�t understand where this whole Jekell and Hyde thing just came from.�
Alexis: �It�s just� I� I don�t want to lose face with the other lawyers. I� I didn�t tell you this, but I heard Jillian on the phone. She was saying that she heard that the judge is going to come back with a verdict in favor of the plaintiff in my case. Ned, I�m losing my touch.�
Ned: �What do you mean?�
Alexis: �When I first came to Port Charles, all I cared about was my career. Now I have more important things to care about. Like you. Like our family. Like our friends.�
Ned: (understanding) �And you think you�re losing your edge as a lawyer.�
Alexis: (nodding) �I don�t want to lose my reputation in the law field and become discredited because people think that Alexis Davis turning into Alexis Ashton made me into a marshmallow.� She sighs. �And I know I sound selfish, but past of me misses that killer edge I was known for, and lately, as much as I love spending time with our kids, even when I make it clear to Avery and Brooke that I�m working, they still manage to totally distract me and then I lose my focus.� She sighs. �And I am starting a new case next week and we�re talking high profile here. I mean it is probably going to be on the national news. It�s an embezzlement case for an international company.�
Ned: (understandingly) �Lex, if you need time to concentrate on your case, just let me know and I would be more than willing to give you some time alone.�
Alexis: (softly) �Do I sound like a total bitch?�
Ned: �No, Princess, you don�t. You sound like a woman who loves her family and her job and is trying to find a way to balance the two.� He pulls her into his arms and kisses her forehead. �So don�t worry about it. I will help you out, okay, Lex?� he smiles. �And if you need a post-work backrub or me to cook dinner or run you a bubble bath, just say the word.� He pulls away from her and bows deeply. �Your wish is my command.�
Alexis: �I don�t deserve you.�
Ned: �It�s funny, I think the same thing every day about you. Alexis, you�re the best thing that ever happened to me. I hope you know that.�
Alexis: �I love you.�
Ned: �I love you too.� He kisses her softly. �Now get yourself down there so you can become the celebrity that you deserve to be.� He grins. �I can just see it now, Alexis Ashton, national attorney of the year.�
Alexis: (groaning) �Goodbye, Ned.� She kisses him quickly. �I�ll see you tonight.� She is halfway out the door when she stops. �Oh, crap. I�m supposed to pick the girls up from school at eleven and take them to get a birthday present for Serena. I completely forgot that their last day of school is today.�
Ned: �It�s taken care of. I will be waiting in front of the school at eleven.�
Alexis blows him a kiss and runs off down the hall.
Downstairs. Sierra, Mackenzie and Kimberly are chatting as the Newsweek people take individual shots of Scott. Sierra is holding Julian, who is fast asleep.
Kimberly: �So Gwen just dropped the kids off and told you to watch them for a month?�
Sierra: �Well, I talked her into just a week for now, and then she is going to be back here doing some costuming stuff through Wyndhams when they start shooting some scenes here, so she will be taking the kids to the hotel with her, and there is an on-set nanny to take care of Julian. Quinn doesn�t really need a babysitter. He is almost thirteen and pretty independent. Gwen trusts him to take care of himself.�
Meanwhile. Kelly�s Diner.
Morgan and Maxie are sitting outside sipping orange juice and waiting for their food to be delivered when Quinn walks up. He looks around tentatively.
Maxie: �Are you lost?�
Quinn: �No� not really. I�m visiting my aunt and she has no food in her hotel room, so I was looking for a place to eat. Is this place any good?�
Morgan: �Well, they have really great blueberry pancakes if you�re really hungry. The cook makes huge stacks of them and they come with bacon or sausage.�
Quinn: �Great.� He starts to walk inside.
Morgan: �Wait� if you�re alone, you can join us.�
Maxie: (at the same time) �Feel free to join us for a little breakfast.�
Quinn: (amused) �Um� okay. I�ll go in and order.�
ACBA. Kimberly, Mackenzie and Sierra are still chatting.
Mackenzie: �So is Morgan looking forward to her first summer vacation in Port Charles?�
Kimberly: �To celebrate the end of school, she and Maxie are having breakfast at Kelly�s.� she smiles. �They wanted to be �adult� so Felicia said she�d drop them off for a couple hours.� She shakes her head. �Boy was Serena mad. She wanted to go with them but she�s just too young. She�s at Gail and Lee�s house with Olivia.�
Sierra: �Maybe I should have Maxie and Morgan over to meet Quinn, after all, he doesn�t know anyone his age in this town.�
Mackenzie: �Knowing those two, they�ll fall head over heels for Quinn� that is, if he looks anything like my infamous stepson, the �wonderful� Nikolas, who is by far the most highly sought after man by all twelve year olds.�
Sierra: �Well, he doesn�t look anything like Nikolas, but he is pretty cute.� She looks at her watch. �I wonder if he found anything to eat. I should have called room service and had some pancakes or something sent up.�
Mackenzie: �Nah, he�ll probably go down to the hotel gift shop and buy a bunch of candy bars for breakfast. That�s what I used to do.�
Meanwhile. Kelly�s. Quinn has reappeared with a glass of orange juice.
Quinn: (sitting down with the girls) �I took your advice and ordered the blueberry pancakes. I hope they�re good because I am a big pancake fan. My aunt Sierra used to make them for me in the shape of Mickey Mouse�s head.�
Morgan: �You aunt�s name is Sierra? Sierra who?�
Quinn: (grinning proudly) �I forgot to introduce myself properly. I�m Quinn Hudson. My Aunt Sierra lives in this town. She�s a lawyer at Ashton, Cisnaros, Baldwin Associates. Do you by any chance know where it is? I wanted to walk over and say hi.�
Maxie: �Yeah, we know where��
Morgan: (cutting her off) �Sorry, Quinn. I am SO rude! I didn�t introduce myself. I�m Morgan Lavin� actually it�s really Fortino� well� anyway, my mom works there! She�s the �Baldwin� in Ashton, Cisnaros, Baldwin Associates. Actually, so is my stepfather. He works there too� and actually, so does my father.�
Quinn: (raising his eyebrows) �Wow.� He turns to Maxie. �And you are?�
Maxie: �Maxie Jones. My parents don�t work together.�
Quinn smiles at Maxie. She smiles back. Morgan frowns.
Three hours later. ACBA�s conference room. The table and chairs have been cleared out and Grant and Elizabeth, along with the six assistants that have arrived, have set up sheets as a backdrop and a fan is blowing to make the sheets billow out.
The lawyers are set up in a shot that has Scott, Justin and Gregory sitting on chairs with Mackenzie, Alexis and Jillian standing behind them and Sierra and Kimberly sitting on the floor in front of the chairs back to back with one leg bent and that foot on the ground.
Mackenzie: (to Alexis as they take another break so Grant can load his camera) �I didn�t know that being a celebrity was such an arduous process.�
Alexis laughs. Jillian, who is standing on the other side of Alexis, laughs too. Alexis and Mackenzie look at her suspiciously.
Jillian: �I was just thinking the same thing.�
Grant: (clicking away) �Great� Hold that pose� this is beautiful� Scott, tilt your head to the right�Jillian, tilt your chin up� great� this is perfect!� he takes about fifteen more shots and then stops. �Okay, Scott, Gregory and Justin, you can have a break while I do some shots of the girls.�
Meanwhile. Port Charles Elementary School.
Brooke and Avery are waiting outside the school when Ned pulls up in his Jaguar.
Avery: (opening the front door and jumping in before Brooke can) �Hi Daddy!�
Ned: (leaning over to give her a kiss) �Hey, Sweetie. How was the last day of kindergarten?�
Avery: �Good! Next year, in first grade, we have fish! Lots of fish!�
Ned: (laughing) �Well you definitely have something to look forward to.� He looks at Brooke who is sitting silently in the back seat. �Brooke, how was your last day?�
Brooke: �Why isn�t Mommy here? She said she was going to pick us up.�
Ned: �She�s getting her picture taken for the magazine.�
Brooke: (mad) �I hope she�s not having any fun!�
Back at ACBA. Alexis and Kimberly are laughing and making faces at each other as Grant and Elizabeth pose them along with the other female attorneys, in a Charlie�s Angels pose.
Sierra: (under her breath) �What does this have to do with being lawyers?�
Grant: �I heard that. It shows that you are all fun and carefree women who��
Jillian: (drolly) �Happened to be standing around in this pose and you snapped a picture?�
Grant: �Never question art, Jillian.�
Jillian: (rolling her eyes toward Mackenzie, who is crouching on the floor next to her, as Grant walks off to get his camera) �Who died and made him lord of the Kodak moment?�
Mackenzie starts laughing and then Jillian does too.
Grant: (aiming the camera at the two laughing women) �Perfect. Hold that pose.�
Though I've tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start
Justin watches longingly as Sierra puts her hands under her chin and smiles innocently for the camera as Grant photographs it.
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Kimberly blows a kiss at Scott, unaware that Grant sees her and snaps a photo.
Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met?
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
Jillian laughs as Mackenzie loses her footing and falls to the ground.
Jillian: (bitchy) �Good job, clutz.�
Mackenzie: �Gee, I thought you were being nice today. I was wrong. Screw off.�
Jillian: �Make me.�
Mackenzie: (pushing Jillian so she falls over too) �Fine by me!�
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Alexis: �Mackenzie!�
Jillian: (grabbing hold of Alexis� leg to pull herself up) �Damn you, Mackenzie!�
Alexis: �WHOA!� she falls to the ground too, half on top of Jillian, half on top of Mackenzie. �Jillian! You moron!�
I resolved to call her up a thousand times a day
And ask her if she'll mary me in some old fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reach the phone
Long before my tongue has tripped me
Must I always be alone?
Kimberly: (leaning down to pull Alexis up) �Are you okay, Alexis?� she starts laughing despite herself)
Alexis: (pulling on Kimberly�s arm) �Oh, you think this is funny?� she pulls on her, trying to make her fall.
Kimberly shrieks and grabs onto Sierra.
In about ten seconds, all five women are down on the ground in a big pile. They are all yelling at each other.
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Scott, Gregory and Justin watch from the sidelines, laughing so hard they�re crying.
Every little thing she does is magic magic magic�magic magic magic...
Grant: (snapping picture after picture) �This is great! Beautiful!�
The women ignore him as they continue fighting.
Alexis: �Jillian, how dumb can you be? Knocking a pregnant woman over?�
Jillian: �I didn�t do it on purpose. I mean I wouldn�t have even had a need to pull on you if it hadn�t been for Mackenzie!�
Mackenzie: �You started it by calling me a clutz.�
Kimberly: �And how old are WE?�
Mackenzie: �Shut up, Kimberly, you know you would have done the same thing. Or maybe you would have smacked her instead.�
Alexis: �I wouldn�t have, but I know who I want to smack right now!� she looks at Jillian. �I could have been injured.�
Jillian: �Shut up, prima donna. You fell on your BUTT, so the only thing that is going to be injured is your butt muscles, if anything.�
Mackenzie: (nastily) �Speaking of butts, I know you didn�t hurt yours, Jillian! It�s so BIG that nothing could hurt it.�
Jillian: �Why don�t you go eat some Baklava, Cassadine?�
Kimberly: �Aw, Jillian, are you jealous that the way you can get a guy as great as Stefan, or any of our husbands, for that matter, is if you kidnap them and tie them up.�
Jillian: �Please. You�re not even all married. Then again...� She pauses. �Alexis has her aging rock star.�
Alexis: (pissed off) �Die, Jillian.�
Jillian: �Kimberly is still married to Scott, even though from what I heard, he almost got some booty going with Alexis when they found out that Kimberly�s long lost child was with Gregory!�
Kimberly: �Why are you even allowed to live, you bitch?�
Mackenzie: �And then there�s Jillian, the mean and vindictive whore.�
Jillian: (ignoring her) �And Mackenzie is married to that Greek slab of hummus whose family is a Jerry Springer show waiting to happen.�
None of them pay attention to Elizabeth, who is eagerly writing down what they are all saying, especially Jillian.
Sierra: �Jillian, you seriously need to get a life!�
Jillian: �And what do I have to say to you, Sierra? Justin is wasting his time on you, babe! You have that never-gonna-put-out attitude about you so he better have a long sexual waiting time because he is never gonna get it.�
Sierra looks like she has just been slapped.
Justin: (speaking up) �How do you know ANYTHING about me and my girlfriend, Jillian? That�s right, you DON�T! So just shut your damn mouth.� He looks at Elizabeth and Grant. �I am assuming that you have everything you need?�
Grant: (unable to speak after listening to them all) �Yes� I think� we�ll just pack up and be on our way.�
Scott: (seething) �I want to see Mackenzie, Jillian, Sierra, Alexis and Kimberly in my office right now!�
Alexis, Sierra, Kimberly, Mackenzie and Jillian stand up and follow Scott down the hall.
Five minutes later. Outside the ACBA building.
Grant: �So you have enough for a whole story?�
Elizabeth: �Oh yeah. I�m thinking of pitching �the truth behind Ashton, Cisnaros & Baldwin the catfights and backstabbing� as a cover story.�
They both start laughing hysterically as they walk away from the building.
