"Do
You Know that Sonny Threatened to Kill Me Yesterday?"
Ric:
Oh. Hi.
Alexis:
Hi! I'm glad you're here.
Ric:
Yeah?
Alexis:
I am so glad you're here. I'm taking pictures of the house. Kristina's
already picked out her room.
Ric:
Oh.
Alexis:
She wants the one next to molly and then I thought maybe Sam could
have the room if she wants in the back by those whiterees.
Ric:
Mm-hmm, yeah.
Alexis:
Smile.
Ric:
Hi. The birch trees -- I know. I saw them.
Alexis:
Mm-hmm. I'm so glad that you talked me into doing this.
Ric:
You got it.
Alexis:
I should -- oh, ok.
Ric:
Yeah.
Alexis:
I should -- I'm not very good with this. I should've done this a
long time ago. Our place is so cramped.
Ric:
Do you know who owns this house?
Alexis:
I do -- Skye Quartermaine.
Ric:
Yeah, well, Skye has appointed a representative to sell the place
for her.
Alexis:
I know. I'm not surprised about that, either, because she's pregnant.
Ric:
Alexis, Lorenzo Alcazar is handling the sale. You're the D.A. --
You see a problem here?
Alexis:
I'm not buying it from him. I'm buying it from her.
Ric:
Yes. But you can't afford the appearance of impropriety.
Alexis:
Honey, my buying a house from Lorenzo Alcazar's fiancee pales in
comparison to my giving birth to Sonny corinthos' child.
Ric:
Ok, with one major difference here -- you're buying a house from
a known criminal after you've been appointed the D.A. Do you not
see a conflict of interest?
Alexis:
You don't like this house?
Ric:
So far, I love it.
Alexis:
Then why are you trying to find a problem where it doesn't exist?
Ric:
Because you are taking an enormous step here, both career-wise and
emotionally, to accommodate Sam, which she has made it very clear
that she doesn't want to live with you.
Alexis:
You're the one who's been pushing me for months to get a bigger
house. You, me, kristina, molly, viola -- we're all on top of each
other. And if Sam gets a room out of it that she can use if she
wants to, so much the better.
Ric:
Ok. Sam's a grown woman who's been fending for herself for years
now, so what makes you think she's going to all of a sudden start
relying on you?
Alexis:
I just want her to have the option.
Ric:
You want her to leave Jason?
Alexis:
I want her to find herself.
Ric:
Ok. Point taken. As parents, we all want what's best for our children.
It's part of the job description, Alexis, which is fine if you're
trying to put molly down for a nap or getting kristina to brush
her teeth. You're not going to make -- you're not going to make
Sam stop loving Jason.
Alexis:
I know that. You don't think I know that? I can't make Jason do
something that he doesn't want to do, either. Look, whether Sam
moves in or not, we need a bigger place. The kids are going to have
their own wing when they go to bed. You and I are actually going
to be able to act like married people?
Ric:
Oh, you mean we get to lie around in our bathrobes and watch television?
Alexis:
No. We get to do this. And we get to make a lot of noise when we
do it.
Ric:
Oh, you're a shame-- oh, you're a shameless manipulator, you know
that?
Alexis:
I hope so. Is it working?
Ric:
Yeah, you know what? I'm just -- your motivations are a little suspect,
that's all.
Alexis:
They always are.
Ric:
Mm-hmm.
Alexis:
Now, smile.
Ric:
Yeah.
Alexis:
Hmm -- cheese. I love you. You're not going to regret this.
Ric:
Mm-hmm.
Alexis:
Oh -- take that.
Alexis:
Hi. How you feeling?
Sam:
Oh, I'll feel better when I get out of here.
Alexis:
Ok. Listen, um, I brought this -- oh, there it is. If you scroll
down, you'll see some pictures. You might findt interesting.
Sam:
What is it?
Alexis:
It's the house Ric and I just bought, and -- I think it's the next
one after that. It's -- it's your room if you want it, whenever
you want it. It's got birch trees all out the window. It's really
beautiful out there, and the deck is a lot larger than it looks.
And the lake is beautiful, the view of it.
Sam:
Thank you.
Alexis:
Mm-hmm.
Sam:
I mean, I -- I'll visit when I can, but I'm going home with Jason.
Alexis:
Sam, Jason has told you in every way possible that he doesn't want
you in his life.
Sam:
I'll change his mind.
Alexis:
I -- I don't want to upset you.
Sam:
Then stop trying to convince me that Jason and I are over. We love
each other, we're going to get married, and if that is going to
be a problem for you, then too bad.
Sam:
You want to believe that Jason and I are really over, but I know
better. I was about to get through to him last night when you showed
up at the penthouse.
Alexis:
I heard everything he said to you. He loves you. I know that he
loves you -- there's no question about that -- but his life has
changed and it's not safe for you.
Sam:
You never thought my life with Jason was ever, ever safe.
Alexis:
No, I didn't, but it's gotten worse.
Sam:
I used to think that I was unlucky, that nothing good could ever
last for me, until I met Jason. He makes me happy, he loves me,
he accepts me for who I . I don't care about the danger. I have
been taking risks my entire life.
Alexis:
Is Jason worth losing your life over?
Sam:
That's not going to happen.
Alexis:
It almost did. You're an intelligent woman. You are beautiful, you're
articulate. You can have anything in this world that you choose.
Surely you must want more out of life than waiting inside Jason's
penthouse to see which one of you gets shot first.
Sam:
Is that how you picture my le with Jason?
Alexis:
You don't have to live through him or for him. I just want you to
live for yourself, that's all.
Sam:
And then what? I can be a daughter you could be proud of? I mean,
should that be my goal, an independent career woman like you? I'm
sorry, Alexis. I'm 26. I am way too old for you to mold into your
image. I love Jason, I am proud of the life I have with him, and
I'm getting it back.
Alexis:
I'm sorry. I don't think that I'm helping. Sorry.
Sam:
I hope you and your family enjoy your new home.
Alexis:
I just want you to know if you ever want to, you have a place to
stay.
Sam:
Thank you, but I'm -- I'm going to go to my home -- with Jason.
Alexis:
Hey. Sam is determined to get back with Jason.
Ric:
Does that surprise you?
Alexis:
No. It just frustrates me. It's daunting. It's depressing.
Ric:
Well, you know that Jason is as much family to Sam as you and I
are to kristina or molly.
Alexis:
Why do I get the feeling that you're about to turn on me?
Ric:
No, our family has needed to move out of that apartment for months,
and you wouldn't even consider it until Sam came into the picture.
Now, all of a sudden, you're falling all over yourself to make sure
that she has the perfect home before she gets out of the hospital.
Alexis:
You're exaggerating.
Ric:
I don't think so.
Alexis:
No, I think you are. How many times have I begged you to come home
from Sonny's because whatever crisis he was going through would
take precedence over me and the girls?
Ric:
I thought we were past all of that.
Alexis:
Ok. Then stop providing him with professional assistance.
Ric:
You're being arbitrary.
Alexis:
Compromises my work as District Attorney.
Ric:
Really? But buying a house from Lorenzo Alcazar is much better than
--
Alexis:
Do you know that Sonny threatened to kill
me yesterday?
Alexis:
I went to Sonny's to discuss juan escobar with him. He completely
flipped out. Now, I've seen him in a rage before, but not like this.
He said he didn't care if I was the mother of his kid. If I didn't
shut up and stay out of his business, he would -- among other things
-- make me disappear.
Ric:
Sonny said he'd make you disappear?
Alexis:
And we both know in Sonny's world, that means murder.
