Jax:
But it's -- yeah, come in, come in.
Alexis:
Thanks.
Jax:
Um, it's --
Alexis:
I'm sorry that I'm early, but those papers that you sent me -- we
need to talk about this.
Jax:
Ok -- ooh.
Carly:
I have to be kept in the dark while she gets to know everything?
Jax:
No, it's not like -- no, no, no, it's not like -- Carly?
Carly:
I'm out of here.
Jax:
It's not like -- it's --
Carly:
I'm not talking to you right now.
Jax:
Ok, it's not what you think, it's --
[Jax
sighs]
Jax:
Yeah, and you're enjoying this, aren't you?
Alexis:
I didn't say anything.
Jax:
I can see it.
Alexis:
No, I'm thinking it.
Jax:
I can see you thinking.
Alexis:
Do you really want to keep her out of a decision this important?
Jax:
Oh, it's good to see you've got your appetite back.
Alexis:
No?
Jax:
Your hair looks great.
Alexis:
These are extensions. What do you think? I got rid of the wig. It's
gone.
Jax:
It's growing back?
Alexis:
Mm-hmm.
Jax:
That's wonderful.
Alexis:
Now, let's get serious for a minute.
Jax:
Business. Ok.
Alexis:
As your attorney, I feel it's my job to caution you that you're
going to considerable expense and trouble for the sake of sentiment.
Jax:
Well, I'm a sentimental guy. I thought that was one of the things
you loved about me.
Alexis:
It is, it really is one of the things, except in this circum-- never
mind. My opinion on this subject really doesn't matter.
Jax:
Your opinion always matters. It doesn't mean I have to agree with
you.
Alexis:
When are you going to tell Carly?
Jax:
When the time is right.
Alexis:
I don't suppose it would be helpful to tell you that you are avoiding?
Jax:
She's a little on edge right now, and I can't blame her, ok? I didn't
experience, you know, when Jerry took over the -- the lobby, and
the fear is still very real for Carly. And she thinks that Jerry
is just waiting to wreak more havoc, so --
Alexis:
I completely understand that. What he did was horrific. He hurt
a lot of people that we happen to care a lot about. But I also understand
how you feel, because no matter what he did, he's still your brother,
right?
Jax:
Yeah. And if he's in trouble -- and when is he -- when is he not?
-- I want to help him. Of course, Carly disagrees with me, and I
can't blame her.
Alexis:
If it makes you feel any better, I actually saw another side to
him. I was being manipulated at the time, but I did see something
nice about him. In fact, I wouldn't be sitting here if it weren't
for your brother.
[Alexis
sighs]
Alexis:
Does that help?
Jax:
No -- really, no, it just --
Alexis:
No?
Jax:
You know, it makes what Jerry did even more confusing. I mean, how
can he help you right after he terrorized a bunch of people? It
just doesn't really make sense.
Alexis:
Are you wondering if there's still any good to him? All right, for
what it's worth -- and keep in mind that I'm
flypaper for the psychotics -- I still think there is.
