00:00Just stop beating yourself up.
00:02You just keep saying that to make me feel better.
00:04I'm saying it to you because it's the truth,
00:06and you are too close to the situation to see it.
00:09I created this situation.
00:10No, your father created this situation
00:13by letting things spiral out of control with Kate.
00:16You have nothing to be sorry for.
00:19But if he admits that he can't...
00:21Then he is doing the best thing for everyone involved.
00:24Your father got us into this,
00:26and he's the one who has to get us out.
00:30You're dead. Wait.
00:32There's something you should know.
00:35Detective, now is not the time.
00:37Well, I don't think this can wait.
00:39It can wait.
00:40No, no. You've got something to say. Say it.
00:42I don't care. I'd like to know why I am just getting this now.
00:46I just got it myself.
00:48What's going on?
00:49That's what I'd like to know.
00:50Commissioner, you want to explain why I wasn't notified
00:52about your new evidence in the Alexis Davis case?
01:01Okay.
01:08Damn.
01:11Here.
01:13Oh, thank you.
01:15I got a little too ambitious thinking I could carry it all.
01:18That happens to the best of us.
01:20Yeah.
01:25Um, you were great in there.
01:27I know it was your first time as a police witness,
01:29but you seemed like a pro.
01:30I appreciate it.
01:31I'm mostly just glad that it's over.
01:33Yeah. One less thing to worry about.
01:35Guess you can add your mom to that list.
01:37What do you mean?
01:38I just figured you'd be relieved about the new evidence in her case.
01:43What new evidence?
01:50I should have known you the reason I'm here.
01:53What did you get me into this time?
02:00Now, for no mistake, access by Dr. Portia Robinson.
02:10Hey, boss.
02:11What's up?
02:12I was wondering if you found anything new on Heather Weber's test results.
02:22Well, hey, what a nice surprise.
02:24My beautiful wife dropping in,
02:26middle of the day.
02:29Babe, what's wrong?
02:31I didn't listen to you.
02:34You told me to leave Heather Weber's case alone.
02:38And I didn't.
02:56Actually, I may have found something interesting.
03:10Great.
03:11Can you fill me in?
03:13I just want to double check my work first, make sure everything's right before we hand it over.
03:18I'm glad to hear you're being so thorough.
03:21All eyes are on you on this one.
03:23And as I'm sure you know, some people are questioning my decision to hire you back.
03:27Given the way I left, I can't say I'm surprised.
03:30We have a great staff here and I'd hate for anything to cause conflict.
03:35Dr. Robinson is especially unhappy about your return.
03:38She's made that pretty clear.
03:40Well, I have nothing but respect for Portia and her judgment.
03:44So you need to be a perfect employee during your trial and stay on everyone's good side, especially hers.
03:49Yeah, my word. I promise you won't regret giving me this opportunity. I'll work extra hard.
03:54You're going to have to if you want to convince Dr. Robinson to change her mind about you.
03:59I have no doubt I'll be able to get her to come around.
04:04I hope so.
04:20Babe, you changed Heather Webber's test results? How?
04:25I snuck into the lab and I looked at her numbers.
04:30And when I noticed that her cobalt levels had decreased, I altered them.
04:37Babe, what were you thinking?
04:39I don't know. I honestly don't know what I was thinking. I was looking at the numbers.
04:44And I kept thinking to myself, I have to do this for Trina.
04:50That's all I kept thinking over and over in my mind. I have to protect Trina.
04:54I want to protect Trina too, but to do it like this?
04:57I had to make sure that Heather wasn't released from prison, though.
05:02Penny, she's a murderer. She's caused our daughter nothing, nothing but pain.
05:06Not to mention all of the other people she's terrorized, murdered.
05:11I'm not disagreeing with you.
05:13Good, because I am not willing to risk what Heather might do if she is released.
05:19Honey, we would never, ever have a moment of peace knowing that she's wandering Port Charles,
05:24plotting her revenge for Esme's death.
05:29All right, all right, all right, all right.
05:33What's done is done, all right? You were protecting Trina.
05:36You were protecting Trina.
05:38And now I've got to protect you.
05:40What's important is that nobody else knows about what you've done.
05:44That's why I'm here.
05:47The court.
05:50The court ordered the hospital to turn over all of Heather Weber's tests.
05:57So, you know, it's just a matter of time before everybody finds out exactly what I've done.
06:02And my medical career.
06:06It might as well be over.
06:11I haven't heard of any new evidence in my mom's case.
06:14I just assumed because you work with Robert Scorpio in the DA's office that you would have been notified.
06:20Well, I haven't, so spill.
06:22I'm sorry, I probably shouldn't say anything else.
06:26I just wouldn't want to do anything that would jeopardize the case, let alone my job.
06:29Yeah, no, I get it.
06:31Keeping things close to the vest is a big part of my job, too.
06:34Not always easy.
06:36Thank you for understanding.
06:37Yeah.
06:38I'm sure I'll find out soon enough.
06:41It's nice to know we might have some good news coming our way for once.
06:44Your family definitely deserves it.
06:46Yeah.
06:48Oh, I'm wracking my brain and short of Sonny or somebody else confessing to Kate's murder, I can't imagine what it would be.
06:57Don't look at me.
06:59Don't listen in the dark about why we're here as you are.
07:03I had to leave work in the middle of my shift because they said this was urgent.
07:07Well, if I was a betting man, I would say that it's about Alexis and the gun that we saw drop off the bridge.
07:13Why? Why would they need to talk to us about this again? We already told them everything we know.
07:17Look, it'll be fine. Just whatever the cops ask is telling the truth. It's your civic duty.
07:24Hello.
07:25Hi.
07:26Thanks for coming in. I'm sorry for interrupting your workday, but this couldn't wait.
07:30We're getting PCPD calls. We're happy to help.
07:32I appreciate it.
07:33Chase, what is this about?
07:35I would like you both to take a look at this gun and tell me whether you think it was the one Alexis had with her at Blackstone Canyon.
07:42Yeah, anything to help.
07:45Take your time. Look at it carefully.
07:50You need to be sure about your answer.
07:53Yes, that looks like the gun Alexis was holding.
08:00I mean, I don't know. It was a little dark that night in the canyon. I couldn't be sure.
08:06I'd appreciate it if you took another look, Mr. Lansing.
08:10Of course.
08:11Of course.
08:16Mr. Reynolds, you can take Mr. Crenfuss into the interrogation room.
08:20Why don't you and I step up into my office and then we can talk privately?
08:23No, no, no. I'm not going anywhere. Not while you're sitting on top of evidence.
08:27Although my client's case is wide open, and considering it's my job, I'd just like to know a little bit more about it. Like, now.
08:33Okay, we're still investigating the relevance of it, and I think until that process is complete, we have to continue as normal.
08:40Mr. Reynolds wants to speak with Mr. Crenfuss, and we should leave them to it.
08:44No, that's all right, because my lawyer's not here yet, and this sounds like it's very important. I'd like to hear the evidence.
08:54Well, go ahead. Do you want to tell him, or should I?
08:59But the evidence in question is a gun.
09:02It is a gun that was deposited here by, as yet, an unidentified subject, and the timing of it is very suspicious.
09:11So I want to make it clear that we cannot consider it a serious lead until there has been a thorough investigation.
09:17No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You've got to know something already, though.
09:20Like, what caliber weapon is it? Do you know who the gun is registered to?
09:24Well, it's registered to Mr. Crenfuss, and it is similar in appearance to the gun that Alexis Davis was seen disposing of in Blackstone Canyon.
09:33And so I have Detective Chase currently questioning the witnesses to said incident to see if it is, in fact, similar to the gun that they saw.
09:43Well, let's cut to it. What about the ballistics report?
09:46To the test, I'm sure you've already run, but we're just about to mention.
09:52Ballistics confirmed that it's not the gun that was used to kill Agent Case.
10:06This evidence is by no means conclusive. We're still investigating its significance.
10:11Well, well, well, gang's all here. I didn't know I'd be walking into a party.
10:17Detective Falconer, it's good to see you.
10:19Yeah, you too.
10:21You're here a little early.
10:23No, actually, right on time because we got some good news.
10:28Commissioner Devane thinks she may have found the missing gun that could exacerbate the murder.
10:36Commissioner Devane thinks she may have found the missing gun that could exonerate Alexis.
10:43Well, I'm very happy to hear that.
10:45Let's not get ahead of ourselves. There still needs to be further investigating of the weapon.
10:50And we eagerly await those results, which I'm sure you will share as soon as you have them.
10:55You'll be my first call.
10:57Now that Miss Miller is here, we can get started.
10:59Well, that won't be necessary because I only came here to make sure that Alexis didn't receive any unfair treatment from you because of her connection with me.
11:10It's noble of you.
11:11I'm a stand-up guy.
11:13FBI's treatment of my client is beside the point. In light of these developments, I naturally assume you'll be dropping the charges.
11:21Because you found a gun?
11:23Hardly. We have plenty more evidence.
11:26You got nothing, and you know it.
11:29I'll be filing a motion with the judge for a hearing today.
11:33I'm fairly sure he'll grant it to me.
11:41If they find out that Heather's tests were tampered with on the same day that I was in the lab, a place that I rarely go, they'll have reason to investigate me.
11:53Okay, but they have no reason to suspect tampering.
11:57An errand result. That could be a faulty test or a lab mistake.
12:03What? I just go to work and hope that I don't get caught.
12:09Yeah, that's exactly what you do. You're out of options.
12:13Look, the important thing is that we're the only two people who know about this.
12:17So, if we play it cool and we're lucky, it'll stay that way.
12:24Actually, there is one other person who knows.
12:31Who?
12:33Ava.
12:34Ava!
12:39Ava Drummond, you're just not telling me this, babe. This is a huge problem.
12:42Ava is a loose cannon.
12:45Ava wouldn't turn me in because she knows how badly it would hurt Trina.
12:50And she loves Trina. She wouldn't want to hurt her in that way.
12:54That might be our only saving grace.
12:59I'm so happy that you finally know. It's been such a burden.
13:04The secret. It's just been killing me.
13:12We're in this together. I've always got your back.
13:16I know. And I love you so much for that.
13:22And you're not gonna lose your job. And you're not gonna lose your medical license.
13:26You know, if I do, I do. I'll do anything to protect Trina.
13:31That's because you're a great mom.
13:34Now, baby, let's get you to work, okay? Come on.
13:40And you're not gonna worry because something like this is never gonna come up.
13:48Thank you. You always know what to say.
13:55That is exactly what I'm here for.
13:59Okay. And I'll see you at home.
14:02See you at home.
14:10What are you doing?
14:13This looks like the gun Alexis was holding.
14:17Remember, it's our civic duty to tell the police the truth.
14:24Elizabeth is right. This looks exactly like the gun we saw Alexis with.
14:30Good.
14:32Thanks again for your time.
14:35Your ID could really help Alexis.
14:38What is wrong with you?
14:40I told the truth, didn't I?
14:41Not because you wanted to.
14:46I'm sorry. I have to take this.
14:54Hello?
14:55Hey, Rick. It's Curtis Ashford. Would you come over to Aurora Media?
15:00Sure. What's up?
15:02I need to see you in person.
15:04I need to see you as soon as possible.
15:06There's an urgent family matter I need to discuss with you.
15:10I know you've been under a lot of stress lately. How are you doing?
15:14I'm okay.
15:16Better than the other night when we ran into each other at the Brown Dog?
15:20You seemed like you had a lot to get off your chest.
15:23I talked your ear off, huh?
15:25Happy to listen.
15:29Oh my God. I can't believe it.
15:31Oh my God. I can't believe it.
15:34Is everything all right?
15:36It's not that good news you mentioned earlier.
15:39Your dad is not a victim here.
15:42His recklessness in so many areas of his life was bound to catch up with him at some point.
15:50And today is that day.
15:51Yes, because of me.
15:53You have to stop blaming yourself.
15:56We have to go.
15:58Where?
15:59I have a hearing scheduled in two hours. I have to get you to Port Charles.
16:03He didn't. He confessed.
16:06Let's go.
16:09Listen to me.
16:11You have to remember what I said to you.
16:13You are not responsible.
16:16You're not.
16:21I'm so glad you're here.
16:22How are you doing?
16:24You know, I'm worried.
16:25I was visiting my mom when the guard told us about this hearing.
16:31I think our dad is confessing to murdering Kate just to get my mom off the hook.
16:35So we have to do something to stop it. We have to make sure both of them are cleared.
16:38All right, look. Dad knows what he's doing.
16:40You just have to go in there, sit quietly, and let him handle it.
16:43I know. I know that you're right. I do.
16:45But I'm scared for both of them.
16:48Hey, you two.
16:49Hey.
16:50Hi.
16:51Molly texted me about mom's hearing, but she didn't really say what's going on.
16:56What's going on?
16:58I don't really know.
16:59And in a move that will surprise no one, Molly has not texted me.
17:03I haven't even seen her yet.
17:05Okay, well, she's probably in there. We should go.
17:09Everybody.
17:15Molly, hi.
17:16Hi.
17:17Good to see you.
17:22Hi.
17:25Now that we're alone.
17:27Right.
17:28You were the one who dropped the gun off to the PCPD, right?
17:32It wasn't me.
17:35And I don't know who it was.
17:38But I'm glad I found out before I confessed.
17:42Yeah.
17:51If there is non-cursory, you must not have confessed.
17:54Then what's this hearing about?
18:05Everything okay?
18:08Sorry. That was a little louder than it was meant to be.
18:12Don't worry about it. It's just not like you to slam things at work like that.
18:17No, it's not.
18:18It's not.
18:19I am just so mad at something Rick did.
18:22Do you want to talk about it?
18:23No.
18:25You know, every time that man has the opportunity to do the right thing, he always does the opposite.
18:29And I tell myself, he's not going to disappoint me this time, but yet he always does.
18:34Sorry.
18:36It's a terrible feeling.
18:39But do you really think that's why you're so upset?
18:44What else would it be?
18:45If I had to venture a guess, I think your mood has more to do with lucky.
18:53Hi, Dr. Robinson.
18:56Brad?
18:58Can I speak with you? It'll only take a minute.
19:00You know what? Now isn't a good time.
19:03It's too bad. I really wanted to talk to you about this.
19:06I was gathering those test results on Heather Weber, and I found something.
19:12I want to run by you. Are you sure you don't have a minute?
19:17I wanted to talk with you, father to father.
19:23This is about Heather Weber.
19:26The possibility of Heather's case being reopened has hung over my family's head for months now.
19:32Trina doesn't like to talk about it, but I know she's terrified, and I don't like seeing my daughter that way.
19:37Look, Curtis, I can understand where you're coming from.
19:42Can you?
19:44Can you, Rick?
19:46Can you imagine if it was Molly that Heather tried to kill?
19:50I love Molly more than anything in this world, and she's the best thing that I have done in my life.
19:56So, yes, of course, I can understand where you're coming from.
20:00Good.
20:01But I'm also a lawyer, and the great thing about the law is it protects people.
20:05Protects people.
20:06Unfortunately, sometimes it protects people who do bad things.
20:11You get how messed up this is, right?
20:13Yes, I do.
20:15But I think that Heather is a completely different person since she's had the hip implant removed.
20:19Rick, I went to Pentonville, okay?
20:21I met with Heather.
20:23I'll admit she's a changed woman, but it does not mean that she should be let out of prison, okay?
20:28I get that you're worried, but I honestly don't believe that you have anything to worry about with your family anymore as with regards to Heather.
20:35And I think you're wrong, which means we're at an impasse.
20:40So I'm going to need you to be real with me right now.
20:43I need you to tell me the truth about what comes next.
20:46I deserve to know how this is going to play out.
20:51We got interrupted earlier before you got a chance to say whatever it was that you needed to say to Sonny.
21:00Yeah, well, it got a little crazy out there.
21:03What if it hadn't?
21:06I mean, what if it hadn't got crazy and Mr. Reynolds and Martin, they didn't come in?
21:14You know, it looked like it was important, whatever it was that you had to say.
21:18I'm sorry.
21:21I kind of got the feeling that you were going to tell Sonny about the gun.
21:29Sonny didn't confess?
21:31No, no one confessed. There's new evidence.
21:33What kind of evidence?
21:36All rise.
21:44Please be seated.
21:49Court is now in session.
21:50Court is now in session.
21:59This hearing has been called due to a motion made on behalf of the defense.
22:04Mr. Gray, you claim there's new evidence that could impact your client's case?
22:09I do, Your Honor.
22:11The prosecution's case hinges solely on a gun.
22:14And the fact that Alexis Davis was seen disposing of that gun in Blackstone Canyon on the night that John Cates was murdered.
22:22A gun they've alleged to be the murder weapon.
22:25A weapon missing, perhaps gone forever, until now.
22:29Last night, the gun in question was located, Your Honor.
22:34Now, I have sworn affidavits obtained by the PCPD from the witnesses who saw Alexis with the gun that night.
22:42They say this is the same weapon.
22:45In addition, there were traces of river water found in the firearm.
22:49Traces consistent with samples taken from Blackstone Canyon.
22:53The gun's serial number confirms the weapon to be registered to Sonny Corinthos.
22:58And lastly, the PCPD has already run a ballistics test which proves conclusively that this gun,
23:04the gun tied so closely to Alexis Davis, is categorically not the weapon used to kill Agent John Cates.
23:13This is good.
23:15I would like to submit into evidence all photos and affidavits.
23:19And in light of this development, Your Honor, I would like to move the court immediately to dismiss all charges against my client.
23:26Your Honor, my team and I feel confident that we have more than enough evidence to move forward to trial and ensure a conviction.
23:33I'm not going to tell you the thought didn't cross my mind.
23:37Because it did.
23:39And I respect it too much to lie to you.
23:41I appreciate that.
23:43Yeah, you know how it is.
23:45Being Sonny's son, the cop.
23:48Yeah.
23:50It can be hard loving someone whose moral compass isn't quite as well defined as your own.
23:55Yeah, look, I know Sonny's hands aren't clean. They never are.
23:58But he's got that other side to him.
24:02Sure.
24:04I'm not going to deny that both sides exist.
24:10You've always managed to stay neutral in the past.
24:15You know what's so different now that you...
24:18You know what's so different now that you...
24:20Past?
24:23You know what's so different now that you thought you were going to cross the line?
24:29Life.
24:32Life is different.
24:35Lulu's not doing well.
24:38And Rocco and I go and sit by her bedside every day and pray for a miracle.
24:45I used to think how amazing it'll be when I get to tell him the good news that his mother's better and she's coming back to us.
24:53And now all I'm able to think about is how I'm going to give him bad news and have to tell him that she didn't make it.
25:01And in the same breath, I'm going to have to tell him that he's never going to see his grandfather again because he's gone away for a long time.
25:12I'm really sorry.
25:15I'm really sorry that Lucky wasn't a match for Lulu.
25:18I just thought that he was going to be her miracle.
25:24Yeah, we all did.
25:27Everything going on with Lucky right now is weighing on me.
25:31He's been gone a long time. It's only natural you'd have a lot of big feelings about him being back.
25:39But it's more than that.
25:42Lucky loves Lulu so much. She would do anything for her.
25:46And I'm worried that he thought being her donor would just wash away all past sins.
25:52How do you feel about that?
25:54I'm worried. I'm worried that now that he can't be her hero, he's going to think that he's lost his shot at redemption with everybody he loves.
26:06And I'm scared for what that might make him do.
26:09Like what?
26:12The thing that scares me the most is that he'll leave again.
26:19Look, Curtis, we don't know each other very well, but you seem like a stand-up guy who loves his family, so I'm going to tell you the truth.
26:27As much as attorney-client confidentiality will allow me to.
26:31Thanks.
26:33Now, I have had several independent labs test the cobalt levels in Heather's blood, and all the results have been consistent.
26:41All have shown significant decreases except for the results from General Hospital.
26:47So, I have concrete evidence that proves Heather's state of mind and behavior is due to or heavily influenced by the metallosis.
26:57Now, with this new development, she's almost guaranteed to get a hearing so that we can present this information to the judge.
27:07I see.
27:09In fact, I've already filed a motion.
27:11Look, Curtis, I know this is not something you want to hear, but Heather is going to get her day in court.
27:21So, what can I do for you?
27:23You said something about Heather Weber?
27:26Yes, I was pulling her test results like I was told to do when I noticed something strange.
27:33Well, I heard that there was some discrepancy with her tests. It was probably just a faulty result.
27:39Now, if you'll excuse me.
27:41I thought it was a mistake at first too, but the disparity between the numbers on GH's test and the rest of them didn't make sense to me.
27:48So, I opened the accessibility records and I saw the weirdest thing.
27:54And what was that?
27:56Heather's cobalt levels were originally recorded at 1.8 before they were radically altered to be 300.
28:05Well, that sounds like something for Heather's legal team to work out.
28:10I don't think you need to worry about it.
28:12And then I noticed that on the same day, the lab's computer was accessed by, uh...
28:19Oh.
28:23You.
28:25Should I worry about that, Dr. Robinson?
28:30You see what a toll this is taking on you, Dante. You know you're doing the right thing by taking this leave of absence to be with your son.
28:39It is the right thing to do to focus on Rocco.
28:44He's a really good kid.
28:47I just want to be able to tell him something good.
28:52There were years, I mean way too many years, actually, when I wasn't here in Port Charles for Robin.
29:01And I've told you this before, she went through all this stuff. Hard stuff. Without my support.
29:08And I regret that.
29:10No matter what happens with Lily, you and Rocco will be together to see each other through it.
29:19And that's what he will remember.
29:24That's what matters.
29:26It's one thing for Lucky to leave me again. I'm an adult, I can take it.
29:31But you're worried about what it would do to other people.
29:35Especially Aiden.
29:37Even after just that one afternoon together, I could tell how much it meant to him.
29:43He was completely open with Lucky. He was vulnerable. It was so good for my boy.
29:49I bet it was good for Lucky too.
29:51I think so.
29:55Lucky is such a smart man. He has traveled the world and seen things that you and I will only dream of.
30:02But sometimes I wonder how he never learned that time is the one thing he'll never get back.
30:13It's hard to believe, don't you think? That a mistake that big could just happen randomly?
30:20Not really. Testing errors, they happen. They happen all the time.
30:26But why exactly are you bringing this to my attention?
30:28Oh, I just wanted you to see how hard I'm working.
30:33And how I was able to catch such a jarring discrepancy.
30:38You know, as you know, I'm back at GH on a trial period.
30:42So I just wanted to make sure that if you're ever asked about me, that you'll have good things to say.
30:49I see.
30:51I wasn't sure if I should do my due diligence and bring this mistake to the attention of the higher-ups.
30:56But if you think I should forget about it, I'm willing to consider that too.
31:05So tell me, Dr. Robinson, what would get me a more favorable review from you?
31:13Due diligence or discretion?
31:18Your Honor, please, in consideration of this new evidence, it's perfectly obvious the prosecution has no case.
31:26To proceed with a trial would be a waste of the court's time, not to mention a complete miscarriage of justice.
31:32Prosecution disagrees. We have motive, opportunity, and the defendant's vehicle at the scene of the crime,
31:39at the time of death, something she was not forthcoming about initially.
31:42The defendant's vehicle, not the defendant.
31:45Prosecution believes we've presented enough evidence to move forward with the trial.
31:50We feel we can convince the jury Ms. Davis pulled the trigger that night.
31:53Maybe not this trigger, but the murder weapon is still out there and we will find it. You can count on that.
31:59Your Honor, I ask that you consider the entire scope of the evidence,
32:04not just the appearance of a weapon that conveniently happened to show up at the police station under very suspicious circumstances.
32:11And above all, I would like to remind the court that this is a woman who was killed twice before.
32:17Which is completely irrelevant and prejudicial to this proceeding, Your Honor.
32:22I'll need a few moments to evaluate the evidence.
32:26Court will resume shortly.
32:34I've been in a lot of hearings in my life and I can't tell how this one is going to go, so that's not a good sign.
32:41You need to go back in there.
32:43Why?
32:45Because you can end this. You can help mom. If there's anything else you know, you need to go in there and tell the judge.
32:52This is a goal. Then I'll drop the charges against Alexis. I'm going to have to step in and do the right thing.
33:04I'll be honest with you. I was a little skeptical when you first came back to GH.
33:09After, you know, what you did the last time that you were here.
33:13I really screwed up.
33:15Yes. But seeing the hard work that you're putting in, your determination is just amazing and I am impressed.
33:25I thought you might be.
33:27I suggest that you give the police and the legal teams everything that they asked for.
33:33And don't complicate the situation by offering your opinions on the results.
33:39And I'll recommend to Dr. Randolph that you be put on full time.
33:42After your trial period ends.
33:45If not sooner.
33:47Thank you so much, Dr. Robinson.
33:51Oh, for your records.
33:53Don't worry. I have a digital copy.
33:57Did you want the door open or closed?
34:00I'll let you decide.
34:13So tell me what will happen at Heather's hearing.
34:17Well, I will submit the new evidence to the judge.
34:23And then I will argue that the jury came to the verdict without all the facts.
34:28Okay.
34:30And based on how that goes, one of three things can happen.
34:34Heather could get a new trial, which honestly wouldn't be good for anyone.
34:39Definitely not.
34:40Because that means Trina and the other victims would have to relive the trauma all over again.
34:44Right. Exactly. Not ideal.
34:46Now, the second option, Heather gets a reduced sentence, which is what I had planned all along.
34:51Nobody can argue that Heather didn't commit the crimes that she committed.
34:55But the charges would be lowered and it would reduce her prison time.
35:00And the third option?
35:02Well, it's a long shot.
35:04But it's possible that Heather could be offered a plea of manslaughter.
35:08And considering the time that she's already served,
35:14she could be granted an immediate release.
35:18All rise.
35:22Please be seated.
35:28I have reviewed all the evidence and considered the arguments from both sides.
35:34And in light of this new development,
35:35due to insufficient evidence,
35:37I hereby move to dismiss the case against Alexis Davis.
35:41You are free to go, Ms. Davis.
35:44Court dismissed.
35:49I guess I was wrong.
35:51Never doubted it for a minute.
35:53Stay.
35:55I need to have you comfortable.
35:57This is amazing.
35:59I know.
36:01I'm so happy for you.
36:02I'm so happy for you.
36:09I'm guessing now you're glad you didn't confess.
36:16I told you, you didn't have to worry.
36:18I know.
36:20Of course.
36:22Congratulations, Mom.
36:26I'm so happy the charges were dropped.
36:28Thank you so much.
36:30It's amazing.
36:32Yeah.
36:37Looks like you'll be sleeping in your own bed tonight.
36:41I know what you were going to do for me.
36:45I do whatever I can for the people I love, you know?
36:48Yeah.
36:53It's over.
36:55It's finally over.
37:00Hey, hey, hey.
37:02Hold on.
37:04Where are you going?
37:06I had to get out of there.
37:08I mean, I'm happy for my mom, and I will celebrate with her later,
37:11but things never should have even gone this far.
37:14And everything that has happened lately is Christina's fault.
37:17I know everybody seems to have forgiven her
37:19and forgotten about all the terrible things that she's done,
37:22but I can't.
37:24I won't.
37:26I'll be praying for Lily.
37:28And I'll be thinking of you and Rocco.
37:32And if there's anything I can do to help,
37:35you don't hesitate to ask, okay?
37:42Actually, my mom,
37:44she was pretty great getting the word out
37:47about looking for a donor match,
37:49and a bunch of people are getting tested.
37:52We're just waiting for the results.
37:54Oh, good. That's great.
37:56Yeah.
37:57I hope you find one soon.
37:59Yeah, me too.
38:00You'll care for her.
38:02I'd do anything for Lily.
38:05I'd trade my life for hers.
38:08Here you go.
38:10Oh, thank you for getting Heather's test results together.
38:13It was my pleasure.
38:20Oh, I don't believe it.
38:23Something wrong?
38:25No, something's very right.
38:27We found Lily a match.
38:31On the next General Hospital.
38:33Go for it. Whatever it takes.
38:35You just put out a fire with Violet School.
38:37Now you want to start another one?
38:39I thought the only way forward was together.
38:41I got an idea, but I need you to make it work.
38:43I made a promise to him, one that I don't think I can keep.
38:45There's something I need to tell you.
