"Are
you and Ms. Davis having an affair?"
In
the elevator at the courthouse
Alexis:
Do you have any idea how much I loathe you?
Ric:
Well, then why have you trapped us both in this elevator?
[Alarm
bell rings]
Alexis:
Go. Go.
You push the button, the elevator should go.
Ric:
You're jamming -- you're jamming the board.
Alexis:
Go!
Ric:
You're jam-- can I get -- can I get in there?
Alexis:
Sure, fine, Mr. Fix-it.
Ric:
If it's all right.
Alexis:
Let's see what you can do. Watch out.
Ric:
What are you doing? Wait, wait, that's my briefcase! Wait! Oh
--
[Alarm
stops]
Ric:
Thank you, Alexis.
Alexis:
At least the alarm has stopped.
Ric:
Yeah. Well, we got that much going for us, but for all you know,
you may have shorted the whole thing out. You may very well have
trapped us in here.
Ric:
You know, you'll do anything to be alone with me, won't you?
Alexis:
I know there's an intercom in here somewhere.
Ric:
Yeah, well, there was one --
Alexis:
Ok.
Ric:
Before you smashed it and had your little temper tantrum.
Alexis:
There we go, it's working. Hello, this is Alexis Davis. I seem to
be trapped in an elevator.
Ric:
Alexis, nobody can hear you.
Alexis:
You don't know that.
Ric:
Yes, I do.
Alexis:
You don't know everything. I am trapped in the elevator with
the district attorney --
Ric:
Alexis, the speaker doesn't work.
Alexis:
Who seems to be having a panic attack right now?
Ric:
No, no, I'm fine, thank you very much!
Alexis:
Please send help immediately.
Ric:
You know, you're wasting your breath.
Alexis:
It's my breath to waste.
Ric:
Look at you -- you destroyed all of my confidential material.
Alexis:
Like confidentiality means anything to you at all.
Ric:
Why couldn't you throw your own briefcase?
Alexis:
Why didn't you take another elevator?
Ric:
Excuse me, these are my papers!
[Alexis
gasps]
Alexis:
Oh -- I knew it! You are obsessive-compulsive.
Ric:
Oh, give -- no. Actually, no, I'm not the one who's obsessive-compulsive,
that's my brother. You wouldn't have noticed that part of him because
you were too busy rolling around in bed with him.
Alexis:
All right, well, that's crass even for you.
Ric:
Yeah, you know what, it is. But it is a fair statement.
Alexis:
Fine. Are you upset because your papers are all messy on the floor?
I'll clean them up. You watch me get down on my knees; put your
papers away one by one because I can see how upsetting it is for
you. I can take responsibility for my own actions. See?
Ric:
You want to call your therapist?
Alexis:
I don't need a therapist. I'm fine. You're the one who's breaking
into a sweat because you're papers are all out of order on the floor.
My only problem is that I have a pediatrician appointment --
Ric:
Your only problem?
Alexis:
That's right -- that took me three months to make, but that's
ok.
Ric:
Oh.
Alexis:
I can handle that because that's life and I can ride with the
tide, I can go with the flow, I can clean up my little corner of
my own little life.
Ric:
Completely out of your mind, that's all.
Alexis:
Stop talking right now! Don't speak! Don't say another word because
I am putting order in your briefcase and order in my life!
Ric:
Ok.
(He
spies the paternity papers on the floor. He grabs Alexis and kisses
her to distract her)
Alexis:
What is wrong with you? Are you out of your mind?
Ric:
I just thought it was the easiest way to get you to shut up.
Alexis:
You expect me to believe that?
Ric:
Well, I can see it didn't work.
Alexis:
Don't you ever, ever do that again. Do you hear me?
Ric:
Ok, I'm just trying to get my papers, that's all.
Alexis:
Just hurry up, all right? Good Lord.
Ric:
Why, do I make you nervous?
Alexis:
You do not.
Ric:
I thought a man at your feet -- you'd love that.
Alexis:
I dont.
Ric:
You have nice legs, though, even for a lawyer. (Alexis almost
stomps down on his hand -- he moves it just in time) Whoa!
Alexis:
You touch my legs, and I will kick you in the teeth.
Ric:
You know what? Do you ever think that maybe -- maybe you just protest
just the tiniest bit too much?
Alexis:
No.
Ric:
No? (He gets up off the floor)
Alexis:
I don't think that.
Ric:
(keeps getting closer) Really?
Alexis:
Really.
Ric:
How about if I just maybe touch your hair or maybe your face?
Alexis:
You think that you are so irresistible, don't you?
Ric:
No, not at all.
Suddenly,
the elevator starts moving again and Alexis and Ric are thrown together.
Just then, the elevator doors open to a bunch of reporters.
Ric:
Look, "No comment" means "No comment."
Reporter:
Are you and Ms. Davis having an affair?
Alexis:
God, no! And you can quote me.
Reporter:
Were you sleeping together during the Skye Quartermaine trial?
Ric:
Look, you obviously have more important things to report other than
Ms. Davis' sex life, such as it is.
Alexis:
For the record, I find District Attorney Lansings comments
unprofessional and inappropriate.
Ric:
You know what? You're right. I apologize. My esteemed colleague
and I were unfortunately trapped in an elevator and we just made
the best of the situation. After all, one of us is irresistible.
Reporter:
Which one?
Ric:
Well, I'll let you figure that out.
Alexis,
Kristina, and Ric are at GH
Alexis:
Come on, sweetie. Good girl. Oh, look who's here. What are you doing
here?
Ric:
You know, the next time we get locked in an elevator together, do
me a favor -- destroy your own briefcase. Hi, Kristina. Can you
help me with this?
Alexis:
Can you say hi to the corrupt district attorney?
Ric:
Very funny.
Alexis:
Uh-huh.
Ric:
The new docket was just posted.
Alexis:
What's the matter, you can't hire a messenger?
Ric:
I just don't think there's going to be that much court time on Skyes
appeal.
Alexis:
Uh-huh. Well, that's because I haven't filed anything yet.
Ric:
You're not really going to file it, are you?
Alexis:
Does this really come as a surprise to you?
Ric:
Well, no, not really, but can't you admit defeat?
Alexis:
My client is innocent.
Ric:
Yeah, not according to the jury.
Sonny:
Hey, Kristina. Huh? Where's your mama? You want to look at the babies?
Come here. Over here, come here. Can you get up over here?
Kristina:
Right here?
Sonny:
Yeah. Can you get up here? I can try to help you. Look at the babies.
Kristina:
Mm-hmm.
Sonny:
Yeah, over here. Look. You got to stand up, though. Yeah, you got
to stand up. Ow. You see that?
Kristina:
See that?
Sonny:
They're all babies, huh?
Alexis:
(realizes Kristina has wandered off) Oh, my God.
Ric:
What's the matter?
Alexis:
Oh, my God -- Kristina?
Kristina:
A baby.
Sonny:
Yeah. You used to be a baby. Now you're all grown up. Which one
do you like the best? Huh?
Kristina:
Baby sleeping?
Sonny:
Yeah, baby's sleeping. She's going to wake up and she's going to
call for her mommy, right?
Kristina:
Her mommy?
Alexis
and Ric come upon them and watch for a moment.
Sonny:
Huh?
Kristina:
Her mommy?
Sonny:
Yeah, her mommy. You probably did that. You probably woke up
and said, "Mommy."
Kristina:
Mommy.
Sonny:
"Mommy, mommy."
