26, 2007 Transcript Nikolas: Alfred, have you noticed Emily acting somewhat suspicious lately? You don't think she knows, do you? Alfred: I couldn't really say, Sir. Nikolas: Because it certainly would be a terrible time for anyone or anything to cause a disruption, don't you think? Jerry: Do I smell French roast? Oh, I've always appreciated Alfred’s lovely cup of coffee. Nikolas: By all means, please pour our guest here a cup. Jerry: Oh, well, that's very hospitable of you. Has Alexis returned? I need to see her on a legal matter. Nikolas: I'll go get her right away. Jerry: Well, that's very kind. Ooh -- ugh! Alfred: Sir -- Jerry: Aah! Alfred: Sir, don't – [Nikolas and Jerry struggle] Alfred: Nikolas, for God's sakes, restrain yourself! Alexis: What the hell is going on here? Nikolas: You get the hell out of my house! Get out of here! Jerry: Your madman of a nephew attacked me! Nikolas: Get out of my house! Alexis: Stop it! Both of you, stop it. This is insane. What happened? Alfred: Nikolas was defending himself -- Jerry: Okay, the loyal servant lies through his teeth -- good dog, Alfred. Nikolas: Get out! Alexis: You need to go, Jerry. [Nikolas sighs] Alexis: What happened? Nikolas: Can you believe that he had the audacity to show up here yet again? Alexis: Calm down. [Alexis sighs] Alexis: Who threatened who first this time? Nikolas: Oh, my -- do you really need to keep asking that question? Let me go through the list with you once again -- shot Robin, poisoned me, held a roomful of people hostage! If that's not threat enough, then I don't know what is! And if you continue to defend him, then I'll throw you the hell out of here, too! Alexis: You invited us here because you thought your cousins would be safer. I volunteered to leave yesterday, you said, "No, don't, stay." So today you want us to leave again? Nikolas: Did -- did you or did you not just defend Jerry in this house? Alexis: I stopped you from attacking him so I didn't have to defend you on felony assault charges. Nikolas: Look, I'm not forcing you and your daughters to leave here, but I am telling you I will not tolerate Jerry Jacks inside my house. Alexis: But if I stay, do I have to tolerate you abusing me and throwing glassware at my head? Nikolas: Oh, do -- do I really have to apologize yet again for "not" throwing a glass at you? Alexis: Just like you didn't throw the first punch at Jerry? Alfred: I really did witness everything. Nikolas: Alfred, it's fine. It's okay, you can go. I'll have my limits, and I expect people to respect those limits. Now, you and your girls are my family, I love you very much, and I want you all safe. But I don't care if Jerry is your client, your friend, hate I do not want him in this house. Alexis: And that justifies a physical attack? Nikolas: Yeah. Alexis: What happens if he does come back here? You going to kill him? Nikolas: You do realize that Jerry's psychotic, don't you? Alexis: It's astonishing what people are capable of when they're not in full control of their emotions. Nikolas: Oh, my God. Obviously, your infatuation with this man is making you lose touch with reality. Alexis: That's insulting. Nikolas: Is it? No, no, what's insulting is my own aunt taking sides against me and defending someone who tried to poison me to death! That's insulting. So maybe you are more Cassadine than you actually realized. Alexis: That's interesting because I was just wondering the same thing about you. I will once again tell Jerry to stay away from Wyndemere. In the meantime, Nikolas, there's something wrong with you, so you need to take a good, long look at your behavior. What Jerry did to you was unjustifiable. But whatever his transgressions, you very clearly are not acting like yourself. Nikolas: I'm sorry; you did hear Alfred say that Jerry threatened me in my own home, right? Alexis: I think that you lost control and threw the first punch, and I think that Alfred covered for you. Alfred: You called for me, Sir? Nikolas: Yes. Alfred, I put a lot of trust in you. Correct? Alfred: Yes, Sir. Nikolas: Is that misplaced? Alfred: No, Sir. Nikolas: Then I need you to be honest with me right now. You told Alexis that I attacked Mr. Jacks because he threatened me. But that's not how it happened, is it? Alfred: No, Sir. Nikolas: So you lied to cover for me? Why? Alfred: You've been experiencing incidents of late. I sensed that you were unaware. Nikolas: What kind of incidents? Alfred: What I would call "disproportionate anger." I didn't want Mr. Jacks taking advantage of you. Nikolas: But it wasn't just this one time, was it, with Mr. Jacks? Do you think there's something wrong with me?
