28, 2004 Transcript Ric: This is all ancient history. I'm invested in the future right now, and that includes that unborn child that Sam’s about to bring into this world. The child should not have all the cards stacked against it before it even has a chance to make an appearance. Carly: You're projecting, Ric. This is not about you. This child is Sonny's responsibility. It's for him to obsess and worry about, not you. Ric: You continually surprise me, Carly. Carly: Yeah, well, you are predictable as hell, Ric. Ric: How could you, beyond anybody else, refuse to believe that somebody is capable of change, huh, when you yourself are willing to tell anybody who will listen that you did, right? Sonny recently found forgiveness in his heart. The great oracle Jason, who tells the truth and nothing but, has recently been lying like crazy. But me -- right? -- Me, I'm the only one who's not allowed to change. Carly: What do you think, Alexis? Has Ric changed? Ric: Well, I think I deserve an answer to that. Alexis: I don't have one. Ric: Yeah, right, that's a cop-out. Alexis: What do you want from me, Ric? Ric: Well, not forgiveness, that's for sure. I mean, what I did to Carly was reprehensible. Alexis: What you did to Carly was psychotic. Locking a pregnant woman in a room and trying to take her child is psychotic. Ric: Ok, right, yes, maybe you are right. It was psychotic. I was clearly out of my mind for a little bit. I am not a kidnapper. I am not a murderer. I am a lawyer, for God's sakes. I am a rational, logical, thinking human being. I clearly didn't think Carly’s kidnapping out on any level except for one very, very primal level, and that is grief over losing my child with my wife. There is no way that I could've killed Carly. You have to believe that much. Alexis: I couldn't presume to say. I do, however, know all too well what it's like to overstep one's own boundaries out of fear and desperation. Do I eventually think that you can become the person you used to be? I'd certainly like to.
