Jerry: You are very good at what you do, Dr. Devlin, which is plastic surgery. Stick to it. I could easily find someone just as competent to find me another face just as charming as this one.

Ian: Since when do you balk at murder?

Jerry: When the victim is closely related to my brother and his family. You see, I'd rather disappear again than kill Sonny and have Jax find out.

Alexis: Jerry?

Alexis: I didn't know that you knew Dr. Devlin.


Jerry: I guess I'm -- I'm busted, as you say. I was inquiring about your nephew's condition.

Alexis: Anything you want to know about Nikolas, ask me.

Jerry: Well, that didn't seem very tactful.

Ian: I explained to Mr. Jacks that I couldn't possibly violate doctor-patient confidentiality, which leaves us nothing further to discuss.

Alexis: What could you possibly want to know about Nikolas?

Jerry: Well, I have many reasons, selfish, every one of them. I -- you see, Nikolas is fighting a brain tumor and I'd like to think that the drugs I gave him didn't lead to his condition.

Alexis: Your conscience speaking?

Jerry: Well, call it what you will. It would be a relief if you didn't blame me for your nephew's illness. We might actually stand a chance.


Alexis: You seem to think that there is a relationship that's going to be happening between the two of us and I keep telling you that it's not going to happen.

Jerry: Well, I don't believe in absolutes, you see now. I believe that there's always room for hope.

Alexis: That's -- that's really bizarre coming out of your mouth, being the cynic that you are.

Jerry: Well, you see, romance is something for which I've always been an eternal optimist.

Alexis: Maybe if I just heard one ounce of regret for all the horrible things that you've done.

Jerry: It is what it is. You can't unring the bell.

Alexis: So you have selective optimism. It must be confusing for you.

Jerry: Well, I could point out that as far as the damage goes, it could've been worse. But that would be an excuse and I loath excuses. I'm trying to revisit my priorities. I'm trying to turn my life around and I'd like to hope that there's reason to.

Alexis: That's your call.

Jerry: Well, not entirely. You could help a great deal if you chose to.


Alexis: You've mistaken me for someone that I'm not.

Jerry: Oh, come on. You have compassion and intelligence. I mean, I know you have an open mind and maybe even an open heart.

Alexis: I'm not rescuing any more bad boys, all right? I've done that once. I've done that twice. Oh, God. Here's the truth. You have done a lot of things that you shouldn't have done and now you need to live with the consequences. And one of those consequences is that you and I aren't going to be anything more than attorney/client --

Alexis: At this moment, there is not a lot of room between you and a harassment charge.

Jerry: And that would mean that one of us was not consenting. And it's very clear that you liked it as much as I did.

Alexis: Just because I'm human doesn't make that right.

Jerry: Have it your way. I'm just another bad boy. You're not here to save me. But you can't ignore the fact that you like me perhaps as much as I like you, which is why I can't ignore this.


Claudia: You didn't waste any time, did you?

Jerry: And why are we here?

Claudia: On Friday at 7 P.M., Sonny is expecting a shipment of coffee. He'll be here to sign off on it. It's all very legit.

Jerry: How do you know this?

Claudia: I know.

Ian: He'll have at least two bodyguards.

Claudia: No, the custom inspectors will be here so he can sign off on it in person. He can't risk having guards around.

Ian: I could do this.

Claudia: Good, then we're agreed. Sonny dies on Friday.
