"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 don’t.

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 Lansing’s 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 Skye’s 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."
