00:00We don't know who you are, or where you're from.
00:06But I'm sure of one thing.
00:11It'll matter to someone out there.
00:17Look.
00:24Take the cuffs off him.
00:25Sir.
00:28Why so glum, boss?
00:31Didn't get the good news you were hoping for?
00:34The night is young.
00:37I don't want to talk about it.
00:42I'm more interested in resuming our card game.
00:45You know, we've played dozens of hands. Over a hundred?
00:56Maybe.
00:57And you have yet to lose.
01:00It's amazing.
01:02You think you're amazed?
01:04Well, enjoy while it lasts, because...
01:08...sooner or later you will lose.
01:12And then...
01:14...you die.
01:16Guess I'll just have to keep winning then.
01:21Wish me luck.
01:28Looks like yours just ran out.
01:33Boss.
01:35News from the mine.
01:44Okay.
01:46Well, if today is the day you open your eyes, I want you to see something pretty.
01:54Oh, gosh.
01:56We're all fighting for you, Lulu.
01:59Especially your mom.
02:02She's gone to the other side of the world to find your brother.
02:06And lucky is your best chance for a match.
02:10And if anyone can find him, it's Laura.
02:13So...
02:15...don't worry.
02:18You're gonna be fine.
02:20You know, you just have to keep fighting a little longer.
02:24And then I brought him here to the station where he was booked.
02:27And now he's behind bars, where I hope he rots.
02:31You don't have to include that last bit in your statement.
02:34Yeah, I won't.
02:36Well, now that's done.
02:38May I say, great work.
02:40I mean, you apprehended an assassin.
02:42That's not too shabby for a deputy mayor.
02:47But there's still so much we don't know.
02:49Who our John Doe is.
02:50Why someone would want him dead.
02:52Who this would-be assassin is.
02:55No idea, and he's not talking.
02:57Well, lucky for you, that's where I come in.
02:59And you can return to your life as a civilian.
03:04Well, keep me posted.
03:07Especially if there's anything else I can do.
03:09Well, no more when John Doe wakes up.
03:12And the hospital will alert me, and as soon as I know, you will know.
03:18Okay, bye.
03:32What is it?
03:36Diane, it's Molly.
03:38Call me as soon as you get this.
03:39My mom needs your help.
03:43Hey, Molly.
03:45Michael?
03:47What are you still doing here, and where's mom?
03:50Down at the police station.
03:52What?
03:53She's been taken in for questioning.
03:54Why?
03:56What did they want to question Alexis about?
03:58The murder of John Capes.
04:13What?
04:25Have you come by to gloat?
04:27About what?
04:29Alexis Davis.
04:31Haven't you heard that she's been brought in as a person of interest in Capes' murder?
04:35No, I haven't.
04:37Oh, right. Well, she's being questioned right now.
04:40So, your boss could be off the hook after all.
04:43Well, she wasn't at the quartermaid's last night, was she?
04:46Can I help you with something?
04:48Um, you asked me to come by when we were at Sonny's.
04:52I asked you to come with me, and you didn't.
04:55I was busy.
04:57But now I'm not, and I'm here, so what do you need?
05:04I need to know who I'm dealing with.
05:07Who I've been dealing with.
05:10I thought that we had an alliance of sorts.
05:13We were working together to find out who was running Pikeman, working Capes.
05:20But now I can see that that's all over, so...
05:25You know, never mind.
05:27Wait, hold on, hold on.
05:29What were you just going to say?
05:32I thought we were becoming friends.
05:34I thought we were becoming friends.
05:37If you're surprised by that sentimentality, imagine how I feel.
05:43I mean, we worked well together.
05:46Yeah, for the most part.
05:48I mean, we didn't agree on everything.
05:52But I did give you that extra time that you needed to warn Valentine.
05:58Yeah, but then you told Sonny that, you know, he was running Pikeman.
06:02But I didn't tell him that you helped Valentine get away.
06:07And you tell Sonny everything.
06:10But not this.
06:13It stays between us.
06:19Thank you for coming in.
06:21Hold on, that's it?
06:25What more is there?
06:27You have your job to do, I have mine.
06:30And unless you're here to provide information about Kate's murder, or in some other official capacity, then I have work to do.
06:43Just give me a minute.
06:46I think I've earned that.
06:48We hoped it might be temporary, that we'd just keep digging.
06:52But the geologist and the surveyor, both double and triple checked, they're in agreement.
07:00So what's the recommendation?
07:02It's time to move to a new location.
07:09It's okay. It's okay, you're in the hospital.
07:13Don't try to say anything, I'm gonna let your doctor know you're awake.
07:20Yeah, can you let Dr. Ashford know that our John Doe is awake?
07:26The doctor's on his way.
07:30Where am I?
07:32You're in the hospital in Port Charles, New York.
07:36Port Charles.
07:39Lucky.
07:42Yeah.
07:43That's what you said.
07:45No.
07:46You were brought in without any identification.
07:49Can you tell me your name?
07:52Isaiah Cannon.
07:55Lucky.
07:58Lucky's my friend.
08:01He sent me here.
08:03Do you know him?
08:06Lucky, Lucky Spencer.
08:09How do you know Lucky Spencer?
08:12Miss Baldwin, thank you for the update. They need you at the nurse's station.
08:17Yeah, of course.
08:19I'll be back as soon as I can.
08:21So I got an update from the governor's office, and they are going to go ahead with the special election.
08:26So my opponent and I will be facing off in a couple of weeks, and then again in November.
08:30So even if one of us does finish the term for McConkie, could change in a couple of months.
08:38So that's exciting.
08:40Jordan?
08:42True.
08:44I'm excited.
08:45So that's exciting.
08:47Jordan?
08:49True.
08:51I'm so sorry.
08:53You were in your own little world there. What's on your mind?
08:57Not much.
08:59Just the attempted murder I walked in on.
09:06Why would they think Alexis knows anything about Kate's murder? She wasn't even at the queues last night.
09:11Apparently, she was seen tossing a gun off the bridge over Blackstone Canyon last night.
09:16You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?
09:19You know what? Let's just take a moment and think about this.
09:23What's there to think about?
09:25Well, we all know that Alexis didn't do it, okay? So there's no need to panic.
09:29Oh my God!
09:31What?
09:33I saw that look!
09:35What look?
09:37The look you just gave Christina when I asked about the gun. You were signaling her to shut up.
09:38Hey, look at me. Do not look at him. Look at me.
09:41Hey, there's no need to cross your fingers.
09:43I'm talking to my sister.
09:45I want to know what you were going to say before Michael stopped you.
09:48What do you know about this gun?
09:54Our John Doe is under guard and his would-be assassin is in custody.
10:00Whoa! I mean, I'd ask if you're all right, but you seem great.
10:04Well, I mean, all my old instincts definitely kicked in.
10:08Yeah. Deputy Mayor by day, vigilante warrior by night.
10:12You know, I was thinking about having some business cards made.
10:16Yeah, you should.
10:18Well, I don't plan to make a habit of this, but I was not about to let that go down.
10:22So yeah, I am a little distracted.
10:26Understandably.
10:27You know, I keep going over it in my head.
10:30And, you know, I think that either our John Doe is a dangerous man, in danger, or both.
10:40But whatever the case, I just cannot stop thinking about it.
10:47Elizabeth. Hey, what's up?
10:50Hey, you might want to come down to the hospital.
10:54Um, I'm already here. I'm visiting Lulu. Everything okay?
10:59Well, we had a patient come in as John Doe, and the first thing he said when he woke up was that Lucky sent him.
11:07What?
11:09Here to Port Charles.
11:10Oh my God! I mean, if Lucky sent this guy here...
11:14He might know how to get a hold of him, or at the very least, know where he is.
11:18And if we find Lucky...
11:20We could have a liver donor for Lulu.
11:23Yes! This is amazing! Okay, what floor?
11:26Eighth.
11:28All right, I'm on my way.
11:30Okay, guys. Looks like our prayers are being answered.
11:34Did you run a CT scan when I came in?
11:37Yes, we did.
11:40Any bleeding, or fractures?
11:43Came back all clear.
11:45How about an MRI? If I could catch anything that the CT scan might have missed?
11:49MRI was all clear, too.
11:51MSCBC count?
11:53Yes.
11:55Okay.
11:56So, you're a doctor, huh?
11:58Yeah. What gave it away?
12:00Doctors are the worst patients, and you...
12:03Well, the worst there is.
12:05Definitely top five.
12:07Well, you're getting the best possible care here at GA, so don't worry. You're in great hands.
12:12I'll reserve my judgment for later.
12:14Well, the police are waiting.
12:16Just in case.
12:18Okay.
12:19One minute.
12:21We worked well together, because we left Sonny out of it.
12:26He's now a suspect in the murder of the four children.
12:30He's a big shot.
12:32He's a big shot.
12:34He's a big shot.
12:36He's a big shot.
12:38He's a big shot.
12:40He's a big shot.
12:42He's a big shot.
12:44He's a big shot.
12:46He's a big shot.
12:47He's a suspect...
12:49...in the murder of the federal agent. What are you suggesting? That we put him aside?
12:53You're basing your evidence on a missing registered weapon.
13:01Sonny would never have used a gun he legally owned to murder someone, is that what you're saying?
13:07I'm saying that Sonny's not stupid.
13:10So, it's not possible that he used the missing weapon to kill Kate,
13:14got rid of it because we'd all assume that he would never do that that would
13:18be a stretch
13:21Jason the problem is is that I have been doing this for quite some time and I
13:29trust my gut and my gut is telling me that Sonny did this do I know with
13:35certainty did he kill Cades I don't know but you do you do
13:50Devane oh yes I'll tell them I'll be right over thank you
13:58the John Doe the way the man whose life you saved thank you for that
14:05too okay I I do want to I do want to finish this another time I don't know
14:14anything about a gun then what were you gonna say I was just gonna say that I
14:18think mom really needs both of us to your life for her no I'm not Molly I'm
14:22not an idiot what have you done this time and how have you gotten mom wrapped
14:26up in it I didn't do anything okay so mom just happened to be getting rid of
14:29a gun the same night someone you hated was shot and killed Alexis is only a
14:33person of interest she's not a suspect she hasn't been district attorney I know
14:37the difference between a suspect and a person of interest thank you I'm fine
14:40that you didn't I also know the current those code of silence when I see it so
14:45if you have nothing to hide I would like to know where you were last night and
14:49who you were with I was alone and I was at that the baby's grave of course you
15:01were well that's the truth Molly that's where I was you know mom really would
15:04do anything for you I thought maybe this one time that you could come through for
15:08her I guess not whatever happened last night I am gonna get to the bottom of it
15:15Oh you can panic now
15:26rip
15:31I don't know I got called away we can't wait any longer
15:36we have to find out if this guy knows we're lucky oh wait it's a 9-1-1 I have
15:46to go you can let her in I'll be back
15:56Kyle I'm sorry to bother you are you at the hospital no I'm Carly Spencer I'm
16:04Lucky's cousin I understand you know him sure do why don't you meet his family
16:10well I would be honored if you could tell me where he is it's a matter of
16:14life and death TJ you will not believe what's happened what did Christina do
16:23now she has hit a new low even for her okay I'm raised my mom is at the police
16:33station right now and I think she's about to be arrested for something
16:36Christina did I wouldn't you let me tell Molly she would have believed me I know
16:42she hates me right now but she's still my sister she's also the ADA and what
16:45exactly would you want to tell her that that she stole one of dad's guns if I
16:49told the truth I could get both my parents off the hook a gun that happens
16:52to be the same model as the one that was used in the murder of somebody who you
16:55openly hate and wanted dead and you have no alibi I didn't shoot anyone we can't
17:00prove that you didn't shoot Kate's because there is no gun and there's no
17:03gun because your mother got rid of it how does that sound
17:07dad Oh listen how is our John Doe doing no longer a John Doe his name is Isaiah
17:17Gannon and he might know where lucky is he knows like he said like he sent him
17:23here to Port Charles Carly's in there right now with him trying to get more
17:26information so he's lucid then yeah see for yourself yeah actually I think I'm
17:33gonna need to speak to him on my own that's all right okay sorry yeah no I
17:38understand yeah good luck getting Carly out of there
17:42yeah
17:45Oh
17:54we're extracting smaller and smaller quantities from the ore every day this
18:00mine was supposed to produce 10 pounds weekly we barely got a pound today
18:06how have the numbers become so small so soon
18:10possibly strip the entire area if we want better output numbers we're gonna
18:14have to move someplace else
18:18very well
18:32I'm sorry my head's not in the game you you don't have to apologize to me like
18:38firstly ever secondly after being preoccupied for saving somebody's life
18:43frankly I think it's all kind of great okay I don't think that attempted
18:48murder falls into the great category okay not that part that part is bad but
18:52for saving the day plus you got a little look in your eye look look it's telling
18:58me that you'd rather be at the PD keeping tabs on what's going on which is
19:02fine because I can defend democracy all by myself for one night hey look I said
19:08I'd help you we got a big chunk done right we're good the rest can wait I
19:12think you should go link up with Anna are you sure I'm positive I'm police
19:20commissioner Anna Devane Carly I really need to speak to the patient alone this
19:25is official police business this is also family business and we're racing against
19:30the clock to find lucky I have a few questions for you let's just start with
19:34your name sure again dr. again and how is it that you ended up here at general
19:42hospital where do you want me to start how is it that you know lucky Spencer I
19:52was working overseas providing medical aid relief and international areas of
20:00need lucky was helping to procure supplies for me and other doctors the
20:07risky job you know abductions killings the usual and you know lucky he's not
20:14one to run from danger so what so that danger got up close and personal when I
20:23was abducted by a guy named Sidwell he's a crime boss warlord type no I'm
20:30familiar with the name this it wasn't the mining yeah not the legit kind yeah
20:37you're good anyway mining takes manpower and men in mines working they get sick
20:48hurt and that's when Sidwell wired me to be his doctor
20:57not to mention Sidwell's kind of a hypochondriac was lucky involved with
21:02Sidwell no lucky lucky went to break me out and he had a plan to break us both
21:10out and as far as I know lucky still in civil's compound and yet you managed to
21:19make your way here to Port Charles no lucky said if I can make it to Port
21:24Charles I need to contact the WSB you contact them for me possibly we're kind
21:32of on a time crunch here lucky's life at all where's lucky being held Somalia
21:37near the Chabelle River okay thank you so much Anna I will be in time now where
21:44are you going to get to the person who can get to lucky I know you want to
21:50protect your mom believe me I've been there but you have to think this through
21:55rationally not emotionally okay where do I start with Molly because she's an ADA
22:02because your relationship with her has never been more contentious if you don't
22:05know what she'll do if you confess to her that the same weapon that your mom
22:10disposed of was the one you stole from dad okay look Molly is upset enough with
22:15me to hurt me but to hurt my mom she's blinded right now by by grief and rage
22:21okay she's not thinking clearly right now I won't say anything to Molly but I
22:27have to do something to help my mom don't worry about your mom your mom's
22:30gonna be fine how do you know that because even though you didn't confess
22:34to anything tonight there is no way Molly's gonna let her own mother go down
22:38for murder what did Christina do to land Alexis in police custody my mom is a
22:44person of interest in the murder of agent John Cates because witnesses saw
22:50her disposing of a gun disposing of a gun how apparently she threw it off a
22:55bridge last night the night he was murdered why that doesn't make any sense
23:01until you add Christina to the equation so I was with my mom when police took
23:06her in so I waited for Christina so I could break the news to her myself gauge
23:10her reaction she denied everything of course she did but I can just tell that
23:16she's in this up to her eyeballs and somehow so is Michael Michael the same
23:22guy that gives TED talks whenever someone isn't honest with him about
23:25truth and honesty that Michael Michael you know I'm not surprised because
23:29Christina always has someone to clean up her messes well I am gonna do the exact
23:33opposite I'm gonna figure out exactly how she's involved in this but I have to
23:38do it objectively can't do it as the sister that she's just betrayed I've
23:42got to come at this as an ADA so what does that look like well John Cates had
23:50Christina arrested so she's got motive and she's got no alibi I know this
23:55because my mom and Sam were calling me all night asking me if I knew where
23:58Christina was and now my mom gets rid of a gun presumably for Christina can you
24:04prove that not yet but things that I can prove or at least observed Michael
24:11does not want Christina to talk about everything so far so where does that
24:19leave you thinking as an ADA not a sister it's all circumstantial
24:27it only leads to one place
24:30Christina killed John Cates
24:35tell me how you ended up in a ditch on route 41 that part is still a little bit
24:42hazy I remember flying in but the moment I landed I could tell someone was
24:48following me you think someone was waiting for you yeah I tried to lose him
24:53me so I ditched the car and made a run for it on foot and just as soon as I
24:57thought I got away BAM all I can remember is waking up here okay is that
25:08the man who was following you yeah it's him how'd you know he was caught trying
25:17to inject you with a lethal dose of fentanyl opioid overdose it's a nasty
25:23way to go out thank you for coming to my rescue it wasn't me
25:31who's Port Charles deputy mayor I'm staying you sure I'm not a cop anymore
25:40yes this John Doe has raised questions but I can get answers tomorrow so how
25:45about we defend democracy together I'm all in if you are I am but it's good to
25:53know I still got it
25:57so if I can't tell the truth to keep my mom out of police custody then what can
26:02I do absolutely nothing but if I do nothing then the police will realize
26:06they don't have enough on Alexis and they'll let her go you think I'm no I'm
26:10no lawyer but from where I'm standing that is the likely outcome yes
26:17okay okay
26:24I just have one question now what's that I know I didn't kill Kate's and I know
26:33my mom believes me because she wants to and Molly won't believe me because she
26:38doesn't want to but what about you why do you believe me
26:52hi so what do I have the pleasure I need your help
26:57well I trust this has to do with the pursuit of truth justice and enforcement
27:01of international law it does in that case I'm intrigued I need you to find
27:07the exact location of my cousin lucky Lucas Lorenzo Spencer jr. aka lucky
27:18provider of security for humanitarian aid efforts in East Africa last seen in
27:23the Kenya Somalia border region this I know because I already tracked him for
27:28his mother a few days ago I need you to find Lucky's exact location now
27:37really happy to see you it's been kind of a weird day yeah what's up patient
27:42was found out in the Pine Barrens the other night hit and run yeah I'm the one
27:46who found him nothing coincidence is about that's why I'm here to check up on
27:52him what what coincidences he knows lucky
27:57how I don't know I don't know I keep getting called away well let's go talk
28:03to him no and it's in there with him right now but I'm dying to find out what
28:06he has to say what is it so far to me not so much but whatever he has to say
28:14about lucky it seems pretty urgent
28:20I'm serious why do you believe me I don't know I'm your sister and you love
28:25me blah blah blah but do you have a reason I do I know I know you're not
28:34capable of killing someone
28:39you're right I'm not capable of killing someone even
28:44someone I hated as much as Kate's I just I wanted him gone yeah well there's a
28:52big difference between wanting somebody dead hell even wanting to kill them and
28:55actually going through with it believe me yeah I know you're right I wanted him
29:02gone but I didn't kill him now we just have to make sure that none of us go
29:07down for us yeah yeah Alexis dad you because let's admit that Molly Molly has
29:18her suspicions so it's probably a matter of time before you're brought in for
29:21questioning I was afraid of that but Christina listen to me no matter how
29:30badly you want to help your mom you have to stay quiet I just hate seeing
29:37her like this I get it I understand but just let Diane handle this for your mom
29:42and for you there's too much riding on this okay you cannot say anything to
29:47anyone do you really think that your sister could have killed Kate's I mean
29:54Christina is emotional impulsive reckless but a killer look we're coming
30:04at this objectively can we let's try Christina is a creature of impulse she
30:11acts first thinks later she's led with emotion not reason but putting all
30:17personal feelings and history aside looking at the evidence coming at this
30:22like I would any other case it all points to Christina so what are you
30:28gonna do I'm gonna do whatever I have to do what I'm not gonna do is let my mom
30:34take the fall for something Christina did I'm gonna exonerate my mom and get
30:39Christina to confess of course I'd love to help you but using WSB resources for
30:45personal matters is frowned upon I tried to get lucky once to do it again
30:51might get me in trouble you would know all about that
30:55oh yes I would I've already been busted from director down to station chief one
31:03more screw up and I could be a janitor not exactly the career trajectory I had
31:07in mind when I joined the bureau it's a matter of life or death my cousin is
31:12lying in a hospital bed fighting for her life not shy about tugging at the heart
31:17strings are you well at least I think you have a heart and now it's your
31:21chance to prove it I'll see what I can do I don't know if that was easier or
31:30harder than I thought it was funny I have a difficult time saying no to you
31:33most people do I'm guessing not for the same reason I need you to run an
31:40updated search on Lucas Lorenzo lucky Spencer
31:51all yours Elizabeth thank you so much great thanks thank you if you go in take
32:02credit for your good deed but Anna I really would like to finish our
32:10conversation we did finish I didn't
32:17fine I got first
32:23I appreciate your discretion miss Sonny regarding my role in letting bounty and
32:36getaway I mean what went down when we work together it stays between me and
32:42you just like what Sonny it stays between me and Sonny yeah that's the
32:48problem it was your man of exceptional skills and I believe that you have a
33:00strong sense of integrity now that integrity functions if not outside of
33:07then regardless of the law and I should know because I've been there I know you
33:14have yeah then you also know that I understand more than anyone the position
33:22that you're in and how difficult it is to have your feet both sides of this
33:28boundary it's it's kept you away from your children and from your family for
33:37years at a time it did to me and and I think that's why I've been kind of
33:44encouraging you to take a strong step over that boundary which you now have
33:51just you know not in the direction that I had hoped for
33:59well I'm not gonna abandon Sonny you've made that very clear I don't see why
34:04that should prevent us from from what helping each other I mean if you know
34:14if we need to why would you want to help me because I consider you a friend too
34:28I wish I felt the same still
34:35let me know if that if that changes
34:43I hope it does
34:53come on come on oh okay
35:02bastards so cool right hands skimming off the top and you know what the worst
35:09part is I asked you a question I thought it was rhetorical it wasn't okay well if
35:21I had to guess the worst part isn't his disloyalty I mean you know the kind of
35:27men you're dealing with loyalty has its limits greed has none and and means the
35:36worst part is the son of a bitch was right the mines really are drying up how
35:44do you do it I was just about to shoot and kill you if you got the answer wrong
35:52you win again and here we thought my streak was over but well it will be
35:57soon time to move on couldn't come at a more opportune time how so I've lost
36:05contact with the man who's tracking your friend so I can't keep you here any
36:11longer now do I take you with or do I end this
36:16right now
36:23Oh
36:31you really are the luckiest man alive
36:41as you were
36:46Oh
36:48comfort and get someone to clean this up
36:58don't ever give that guy bad news
37:15Oh
37:22my name is Elizabeth Baldwin I'm the head nurse here at GH I used to be
37:29married to lucky we have a son together Aiden lucky mentioned you he said you
37:38were beautiful and usually exaggerates but in this case I don't think he did
37:42you justice thank you what can you tell me about lucky lucky and I work together
37:52for a few years doing what being a couple of modern-day Robin Hood's I have
38:02a bad feeling Aiden's been trying to get a hold of his
38:07dad for quite some time is he okay I've seen lucky in a lot of difficult
38:15situations over the years but but what I've never seen him in one like this
38:22when I last saw lucky he was still breathing but I don't know if that's
38:28still the case
38:31you
38:33I'm an ex-general hospital and I tempt you with something a little stronger that
38:37could be used against you in Avery's custody case the fact that you just asked
38:41me that tells me everything are you worried that lucky might not come back
38:43what have you done that would make somebody want to kill you I trust your
38:46judgment you ain't seen anything yet
