Kristina: Hey!

Molly: Hey!

Taylor: How's it going?

Kristina: How are you?

Alexis: Where's your brother?

Molly: Oh, he's not coming.

Alexis: Oh, good, you guys haven't left yet. You forgot your long underwear. Here.

Molly: That wasn't embarrassing, Mom.

Alexis: You'll thank me when you don't freeze your tush off. Humor me. Wear them. You guys excited?

Taylor: Yeah. It's gonna be great. You should come.

Alexis: Oh, well, somebody has to stay here to work to pay for the very expensive ski trip to Cedar Mountain.

Kristina: Oh, jealous?

Alexis: You know me, honey. I'm a sun, sand, kind of 5-star hotel gal. But if you guys want to put sticks on your feet and risk hypothermia, you have my full support.


Kristina: I'll meet you over there in a second.

Molly: Okay.

Taylor: See you later.

Kristina: Wait, Ali. I'm sorry Michael bailed.

Ali: Krissy, I hate to break it to you, but I didn't come on this trip to spend time with Michael. I'm going to snowboard and hang out and have fun. So relax, o control freak supreme. It's all good.

Kristina: Do you get how frustrating this is? How perfect you would be for Michael if he would just give you a chance.

Ali: Listen carefully. Michael and Ali will not be getting together. Anyway, I'm kind of into this guy at my school.

Kristina: Who?

Ali: I don't know if you know him. His name's Tim Sullivan.

Michael: Hey, Kristina, Ali.

Kristina: Michael! You made it.

Michael: Yeah. Hey, uh, look, I really wanted to apologize for blowing off your party.

Ali: Stop. I just told Krissy, I think you're awesome, as a friend only.

Michael: Yeah.

Ali: Um, besides, I'm kind of seeing this guy at my school.

Michael: That's great! No, that's great. Me, too. I mean, I'm seeing somebody, so friends is good.

Ali: Yay! That's over! Now we can relax and have fun.

Michael: Michael! Molly said you weren't coming.

Michael: I changed my mind.

Michael: Sweet. Now we can do the double back diamonds.

Molly: Did Abby talk you into coming?

Michael: Who's Abby?

Michael: Just a friend. So, are you gonna be skiing or snowboarding?

Michael: One day of each, I think. I want to try the half pipe, but you can go so much faster on the moguls on skis--

Steve: Hey, could I have everyone's attention, please? Guys. It's time to head out to the parking lot. We're gonna stop for dinner on the way. So take whatever you need for the bus because everything is gonna be stowed underneath. Okay? Let's go.

Alexis: Goodbye. Oh, have fun. Have fun, my babies, and--and don't break anything, okay?

Molly: Mom, I can't breathe.

Kristina: Mom, she can't breathe.

Molly: Mom!!

Elizabeth: Okay, now listen to mommy. You be a good boy for Uncle Steven, okay?

Cameron: Okay.

Elizabeth: And you, don't take him on anything too steep.

Steve: Come on, relax, he's a Webber. He can handle it.


Bus driver: It's an easy drive to the lodge. 3 hours at most.

Steve: Great. Thanks.

Bus driver: Mm-hmm.

[Olivia sighs]

Steve: Ready for this?

Olivia: You know I've never skied. Not one day in my life, never.

Steve: Are you really gonna let that stop you?

Olivia: You know, Doc, us tough chicks with hearts of gold, we're up for anything.


Theo: Ah, Ms. Davis. Are you alone?

Alexis: Mr. Hoffman. Are you lost?

Theo: Oh, Theo, please. And I know exactly where I'm going. I do hope you will allow me to buy you lunch one day soon-- purely professional. I would like to alleviate your reservations about my being assigned to the Brenda Barrett case.

Alexis: Actually, I've gone over your record thoroughly. I think you'll provide an excellent defense. And while we have the opportunity, I'd like to make full disclosure. Sonny Corinthos is the father of my second child and the uncle of my third.

Theo: Ms. Miller has already informed me of that.

Alexis: How thorough of her.

Theo: You are all tangled up with each other, aren't you? Be that as it may, if you're so inclined, you could be of assistance to both Sonny and Ms. Barrett, by giving me what I need.


Steve: How are we doing?

Bus driver: We're making better time than if I had stayed on the 10. The 55 is clear all the way to the summit.

Steve: You know best.

[Olivia sighs]

Steve: What are you doing?

Olivia: I'm trying to tempt you.

Steve: Not a chance.

Matt: You ever notice those upscale burger joints where they have the market fresh whatever and organic this, and they call the mayonnaise aioli, you ever notice those places, they're never as good as the roadside place that's been there for 50 years?

Maxie: That's true. But I also think it's about who you're with. I mean, when you go to a fancy place, you're probably focusing on impressing your date. But when you just grab a burger on a ski trip, you're just having fun.

Matt: You having fun?

Molly: Michael? Does it feel weird being out of Port Charles?

Michael: Yeah. Kind of. How'd you know?

Molly: Oh, I was thinking, this is the first time you've got to leave since you've been on parole. Does it feel good to be doing something normal, or do you feel like we're all completely ordinary and you're just pretending to fit in? Kind of like in this book I'm that reading where the hero is actually the vampire, but he pretends to be a regular kid and he goes to school, but it's all just an act.

Michael: I'm enjoying being on this trip. I don't feel like a vampire.

[Ali humming]

Taylor: I think she likes the song.

Kristina: Just a little bit.

Ali: What?

Kristina: No, you tell us.

Ali: Oh, I'm listening to a song Tim sent me. Do you guys know "Hallelujah"?

Taylor: Uh, yeah, I know, like, 531 "Hallelujahs." I'm Catholic.

Ali: No, this is a really cool song.

Olivia: A da da da, hallelujah that one?

Ali: You know it?

Olivia: Yes, young one. A lot of cool music was written before you were born. I know it. How about you?

Steve: What about me?

Olivia: Do you know it, "Hallelujah"? The--the--words?

Steve: Oh, promise me you're not doing what I think you're doing. Please.

Olivia: Yes, I am doing it. Come on! The honor of our generation is at stake here. We gotta show these kids that we got a little bit of cool left in us.

Steve: Okay.

[Playing "Hallelujah"]

I heard there was a secret chord that David played and it pleased the Lord, but you don't really care for music, do you?


Theo: I haven't had the time to do my research on Sonny, but as you've had a close connection to him, you could be of assistance on the case. You could provide context.

Alexis: For example?

Theo: How close are Sonny, Detective Falconeri, and Brenda Barrett to each other? Could they be conspiring to paint a killing as self-defense?

Alexis: Actually, I think you're asking the wrong question, Mr.-- Theo. Sonny is very protective of Brenda, and if the verdict goes against her, he'll be looking to blame somebody. And the defense attorney makes an easy target.


Steve and Olivia:[singing] Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, your faith was strong but you needed proof, you saw her bathing on the roof, her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya, she tied you to a kitchen chair, she broke your throne and cut your hair and from your lips she drew the hallelujah,

All: Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Steve: One more time.

All: Hallelujah, hallelujah


Carly: Oh? Hey, baby. Having fun? Are you there yet?

Michael: No, we're still on the bus. But it's fun so far. I beat one of the kids 3 times in a row at "Wizard Wars."

Carly: Did you stop for dinner?

Michael: Yeah. We ate at this cool old hamburger place called Sandy's. They had the best onion rings.

Carly: Onion rings? And I don't know about this place?

Michael: Maybe Olivia or Steve Webber can tell you how to find it.

Carly: Is Michael having fun?

Michael: Molly's telling him the plot of these books that she likes, and there's 4 in the series, so it's a really long conversation.

Carly: Okay, well, I think it's great that Michael's hanging out with Molly, but can you get him alone and tell him to hang out with kids his own age?

Jason: Carly.

Carly: Jason says hi.

[Rattling, tires squealing]

Michael: Mom?

Bus driver: Oh, God.

[Brakes screeching]

Michael: Mom!

Michael: Hold on!

Carly: Morgan, what's happening?

[Tires screeching]

Steve: Cameron!

[All screaming]

[Cell phone beeping]

Carly: Oh, my God, I just dropped the call.

Jason: What happened?

Carly: I heard screaming, Jason. I think their bus crashed.


[Wind blowing]

["Hallelujah" playing]

Steve: [singing] I heard there was a secret chord, that David played and it pleased the lord, but you don't really care for music, do ya? But it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, the baffled king composing hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
