"I Think My Lawyer is the Killer"

Alexis and Skye are going over Skye's case in the lounge at the hospital. Alexis sees Dr. Navarro at the nurses' station and gets up to speak with him . She hands Skye some paperwork.

Alexis: You look this over, and I'll be right back.

Skye: Oh, sure. Yeah.

Alexis walks over to the doctor and Skye watches her go.

Suddenly images from the night of the murder flash in her mind. She remembers the woman as she looks at Alexis.

A flash of recognition crosses her face.

She suddenly remembers that it was Alexis in Alcazar's room that night.

Skye is stunned and speaks to herself.

Skye: You?

Felicia comes off the elevator and sees Skye sitting alone in the lounge.

Felicia: Skye, I'm glad I caught you. (Sitting down next to Skye) Have you remembered any more details about the woman you saw the night that Alcazar was murdered? Any details at all?

Skye is very nervous and can't answer Felicia.

Felicia: If her hair was curly, if her hair was straight? Her physique, her build, how big her shoulders were?

Alexis comes up to them.

Alexis: Hi, Felicia. How are you?

Skye is obviously very nervous.

Felicia: I'm fine, thank you. Oh, I don't know if you know, but Jax hired me to find the woman that murdered Alcazar so Skye could be cleared.

Alexis: Any new leads?

Felicia: I'm following up on the woman that Skye saw the night that Alcazar was murdered, and I was just asking her if she remembered anything more.


Alexis is now sitting in the lounge across from Skye and Felicia making Skye very nervous.

Skye: I've told you all that I know. There was a woman -- dark hair, dark coat, jeans -- and I'm sure that that piece of black material the police found is probably from her coat. I've tried to remember more details, but I'm afraid that's the best I can do.

Felicia: All right. Then I'll check the surveillance tapes at the hotel and then crosscheck Alcazar's business contacts.

Skye: Oh, you know, I could help you with that legwork.

Felicia looks over at Alexis and then turns back to Skye.

Felicia: That's all right.

Skye: Oh, Felicia, you must have a ton to do, and I know Alexis would probably rather be here with her baby instead of dealing with all this tedious stuff.

Felicia: I appreciate the offer, but I can handle it.

Felicia gives Alexis a "goodbye" look and then stands up and leaves.

Skye: Ok.

Skye becomes very nervous as Alexis just watches her a moment. She then gets up and sits next to Skye.

Alexis: You let me know if you remember anything else.

Skye: Oh, absolutely, I will.

Skye makes a move to leave and Alexis quickly gets some papers out of her briefcase.

Alexis: We should go over the transcripts. Do you have a minute?

Skye: You know what? I really need to get to an A.A. meeting. Could we maybe do this tomorrow?

Skye smiles and hurries off.


Skye arrives at Kelly's. Felicia is waiting for her at a table.

Skye: Hey, Felicia -- thanks for coming.

She sits down.

Felicia: You wanted me to meet with someone?

Skye: Yeah, me. I have some new information.

Felicia: Ok. What is it?

Skye: Well, I remembered more about that woman who was seen running out of Alcazar's suite, and I think you're not going to believe this, but I think it may have been Alexis.

This stuns Felicia.

Felicia: Did you see her face?

Skye: Well, quickly, in profile.

Felicia: Could you be wrong about this?

Skye: Possibly. But I honestly think that it was her.

Felicia: This just seems incredible.

Skye: Well, maybe not. I mean, Alexis hated Alcazar. She blamed him for the death of her sister.

Felicia: And he left her lying in the snow when she was in labor.

Skye: It makes perfect sense that Alexis would kill Alcazar. I mean, when Jax confessed, she rushed to his side to represent him even though her baby was still in neonatal I.C.U. and then again when Jason and Brenda were charged with the murder, she represented them. And when the guilty verdict came out, she could have been the one that provided that evidence to the police that cleared them without giving herself up.

Felicia: She was the first one to see the body in the alley.

Skye: But now she's agreed to represent me, which is a perfect way for her to keep covering her tracks. I can't believe this, Felicia. I think my lawyer is the killer. What am I going to do?

Felicia: Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Before we implicate Alexis, we have to be sure.


Alexis is waiting by the nurses' station when Cameron arrives.

Alexis: Did you get the test results back?

Cameron: Yeah, I was just with the technician. We went over the scans thoroughly.

Alexis: And?

Cameron: There's no sign of any abnormality in your brain. (Fear crosses her face) In other words, Alexis, there's no physical reason for your behavior.

Alexis: I'll speak to the neurologist myself.

She begins to walk away but stops when Cameron speaks.

Cameron: He'll tell you the same thing.

Alexis: That may be the case, but I would like to speak to him myself. This is not your area of expertise.

Cameron: Alexis, I've seen hundreds of these scans.

Alexis: I understand that.

Cameron: You know, most people would be thrilled to find out that there's nothing wrong with them, but your need to be in control is so strong, you'd actually prefer a physical reason, wouldn't you?

Alexis: Do you really think that this line of therapy is helping me right now? Do you think that speaking to me this way at this particular time is what I need?

Cameron: No, but what you need is to face reality, Alexis. Now, the answer as to why you've been assuming your sister's personality won't be found in an x-ray or any other medical test. If, as I suspect, you have this dissociative disorder, you're going to have to find the courage to face it and go through therapy -- if not for yourself, then for the good of your daughter.


Felicia: Skye is almost certain that Alexis is the woman she saw the night of the murder. You don't seem very surprised by that. (Cameron nods slightly) Do you think that Alexis murdered Alcazar?

Cameron: It's possible, but she may not remember doing it.

Felicia: What's that supposed to mean?

Cameron: Well, I can't tell you.

Felicia: Is Alexis a patient of yours?

Cameron: Let's just say I've been privy to some confidential information.

Felicia: But if this information has proof that Alexis murdered Alcazar, you're going to have to come forward and tell the police about it.

Cameron: No, I don't have any proof. I'm just trying to piece together what happened that night.

Felicia: Well, if there's anything I can do to help you --

Cameron: What about Alexis' childhood? Did she suffer any serious emotional trauma?

Felicia: Probably. After all, she is a Cassadine.

Cameron: Felicia, I need some time. Can you stall the investigation?

Felicia: Stall it?

Cameron: Slow it down until I find out what's going on with Alexis.

Felicia: Well, my obligation is to Skye. I'm supposed to prove that she's innocent.

Cameron: Yeah, I want that, too, but not at the expense of Alexis. This could ruin her life.

Felicia: Well, if she's guilty --

Cameron: If she's guilty, she could lose her child. As a mother yourself, I'm sure you know what that could be like.

Felicia: I didn't commit murder.

Cameron: Felicia, I may be able to help Alexis. Now, I know what it's like to lose a child. I don't want her to suffer the same loss.

Felicia: This sounds personal.

Cameron: Yeah. So if you could just sort of sidetrack the investigation until we're sure, I'd appreciate it. Alexis needs all the time we can give her.
