I'm baaaaaaack! Ava/Denise is forced to reveal her true identity in court when confronted with evidence that she is indeed Ava Jerome. At least she can finally be rid of that wig, or sell it to the next person who wants to go incognito from the law. Nathan gets word from the courthouse that Nina has been implicated in Silas's murder. Meanwhile, Dr. Obrecht is nervous about Franco finding out she is indirectly responsible for sending Nina up the river. Alexis and Sam talk about Julian and how much they can trust his moblessness. Sonny confronts Julian and ends up accused of setting Julian up. Liz and Patrick kibitz about each other's relationships.
COURTHOUSE
SCOTT: Lookee here, your honor! I have evidence that Miz DiMuccio and Ava Jerome are one and the same.
JUDGE CHUA: Where does this evidence come from?
SCOTT: I plead the fifth.
JUDGE CHUA: That's not how the fifth works, Mr. Baldwin. I will repeat my question: Where does this evidence come from?
SCOTT: The Stealth DNA Lab at GH, your honor. In this here envelope, you have all the information you need to prove that this so-called hairdresser from Queens is a figment of Miz Jerome's demented imagination.
AVA/"DENISE": I object!
JUDGE CHUA: Do I need to explain how this trial thing works? Witnesses cannot object and attorneys cannot plead the fifth. Got it?
SCOTT: So, AVA, 'fess up already. YOU ARE AVA JEROME!
AVA/"DENISE": I ain't Ava.
SCOTT: Wrong answer. Try again.
AVA/"DENISE": Ava ain't me.
SCOTT: Where's a gong when you need one? Once more, Miz Jerome, with feeling.
AVA/"DENISE": FINE! I AM AVAAAAAAAA!
SCOTT: Ding ding ding!
KIKI AND MORGAN: Say WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

LIZ: Thanks, but no thanks. Can't stand the bitch.

OBRECHT: Sank you, Nurse Vebber. You can srow it away now zat I got vat I vant from it.
LIZ: Okay, whatever.
PATRICK: Are you sure you want to tie the knot with Jake? You still don't know whether or not he was a terrorist or an axe murderer in his previous life.
LIZ: Not to worry. He sold me some Terrorist/Axe Murderer insurance, so we're good.
PATRICK: Okay. Just want to make sure you know what you're getting into.
LIZ: What about you and Sam? When are you going to put a ring on her finger?
PATRICK: Once she gets over Jason's ghost.
LIZ: I wouldn't let a pesky ghost get in the way if I were you.
SONNY'S HOUSE
SONNY: Julian, I've summoned you here to 'fess up to messing with my shipment.
JULIAN: Why would I try to steal your coffee when I could get far superior product at Starbucks?
SONNY: I have a proposition.
JULIAN: We're not in Pentonville anymore, Sonny. I'm no longer your prison wife.
SONNY: If you admit you tampered with my shipment, I'll bump off the guy who ratted you out to the cops.
JULIAN: You do realize that you just admitted to setting me up, you DIRTY ROTTEN BASTARD!
SONNY: Why would I shoot my OWN guys? Maybe you really are out of the business if you've forgotten how the mob works.
JULIAN'S APARTMENT
SAM: Is Dad home?
ALEXIS: Sorry. He's off tangling with Sonny. It's just you and me and a bottle of Cabernet.
SAM: So do you really think Dad's out of the mob?
ALEXIS: Yes, I do. Why? Should I NOT think he's out? Now I'm all confused.
SAM: In Vino Veritas.
ALEXIS: Okay, the Cab says he's fully legit, so we're good.
SAM: Always trust the Cab. I gotta go meet the boyfriend. Tell Dad I believe him because the wine says so.
METROCOURT

Making The Peace
I'm on vaykay, so the blogs will be short or possibly absent this week. Here's a quick one for today's show:
DANTE & LULU'S
LULU: So, Dillon, have you impregnated Valerie yet? Don't look at me like that! I only want to make sure she stays the hell away from Dante. Here's an idea: Why don't you move her into the Q mansion.
DILLON: Insecure much, Lulu? Besides, I don't want to end up paying my kids 500 grand because I missed the first quarter century of their lives.
CARLY'S
VALERIE: Don't mind me. I just ditched the castle on the island to come live here until I can find a vacant hole in the wall over Kelly's.
CARLY: OMG, I totally didn't get the memo because I've been too busy finding a dress for Wedding #5 with Sonny.
MAXIE: Come on, Valerie! Let's play with jewelry. I promise not to call you a homewrecker!
JULIAN'S
OLIVIA: Julian, is it true you're out of the mob? If you are, there's something I need to tell you about our son.
JULIAN: I'm out. Just ask Alexis. She wouldn't sleep with my mobster ass, so she can assure you that my ass is 100% mob-free.
ALEXIS: If I sleep with him while he's in the mob, houses explode.
OLIVIA: Here goes. Baby Leo is...
DANTE & NATHAN: Julian Jerome, you're under arrest for mobbing!
SONNY'S
SONNY: TJ, you need to be nicer to your mama. One day you won't have a mama and you'll wish you had a mama, so go give your mama a hug.
TJ: Will do. Thanks, man!
JORDAN'S OFFICE
TJ: I'm still pissed at you for lying and getting Shawn thrown in the hoosegow, but you got your badass on for the good of all mankind, so I'm kinda proud of you for that.
JORDAN: Music to my ears, Thomas! Move back in with me.
TJ: Whoa whoa whoa, baby steps, Mom. Baby steps.
CARLY'S
MAXIE: I had a sister named Georgie. She died. Now I have a daughter named Georgie.
VALERIE: I'm so sorry about your sister. I had a mom named Patricia. She died too.
MAXIE: I'm so sorry. Now we have something in common and we can be friends and everybody can be happy.
HOSPITAL
LUCAS: What did you do that forced you to marry so you don't have to testify against each other?
BRAD: If we tell you, someone will have to kill you. Can you forgive me anyway?
LUCAS: I guess so.
DANTE & LULU'S
LULU: So, Dillon, have you impregnated Valerie yet? Don't look at me like that! I only want to make sure she stays the hell away from Dante. Here's an idea: Why don't you move her into the Q mansion.

Uncle Leo
This is not a Seinfeld reference, though Uncle Leo was a very memorable character from that show. This Uncle Leo is only 3 months old. And already an uncle to nearly 2 year-old talking Rocco! Yes, Rocco talks now and he's adorable. As for the tiny Uncle Leonardo Falconeri, Olivia is on the fence about bringing him back to the Chuckles. She asks Dante if Julian has really quit the mob, then shows up at Julian's to ask him the same question.
Sonny assures Jordan that the two of them are on the same side as far as TJ is concerned as well as bringing the goons that tampered with his "shipment" to justice. Hayden has a flash of memory of her time at Wyndemere. Brad and Rosalie explain their marriage situation to Lucas. Liz tells Nikolas that Jake and Sam are investigating him. Julian gets emotional thinking about his "dead" son.
DANTE & LULU'S APARTMENT
DANTE: Ma! Great to see you! How's my kid bro?
OLIVIA: Your baby brother is doing great, hon. One of these days, Rocco is going to meet his Uncle Leo.
LULU: (holding Rocco) Uncle Leo! I remember him from Seinfeld. Didn't he steal a book from the library?
OLIVIA: Not THAT Uncle Leo. I'm talking about my baby, Leonardo Falconeri. You know, like DiCaprio and DiVinci.
DANTE: Where is he, by the way?
OLIVIA: He's in Bensonhurst. I came back to make sure Julian was out of the mob. Is he?
DANTE: Maybe, maybe not. Tough to tell. Sonny's shipment got hit recently by two no-necks that used to work with Jerome.
OLIVIA: I don't want to bring Leo back if he won't be safe from mobbery.
JULIAN'S APARTMENT
JULIAN: Unbelievable! Lucas can't marry Brad because Brad is already married! Now my son's all heartbroken. At least this son is still alive. My other son would have been 3 months old today.
ALEXIS: I'm so sorry, Julian.
JULIAN: I kept my trap shut about the baby these past few months because I didn't want to be a burden to you. I left the mob because my baby died. You can be 100% sure I am mob-free.
ALEXIS: Good to know, because those headlines had me worried.
JULIAN: This time, I'm out for realsies. I'm officially an EX-mobster, Alexis.
HOSPITAL
LUCAS: Color me befused and confuddled! Rosalie, if you and Brad are married, why were you trying to pick me up?
ROSALIE: Because I'm straight and you're hot. Besides, I didn't even know Brad worked here. Last I saw him, we were in Miami.
BRAD: We became besties there and I was afraid to come out to my parents, so we tied the knot.
LUCAS: And you didn't tell me about this before you did that Bruno Mars proposal to me at the Nurses' Ball because...
BRAD: It would have been SUPER AWKWARD to tell you I was already married 2 seconds after I popped the musical question?
LUCAS: Hey, Rosalie, what was in this for you?
ROSALIE: I'm such a good friend, I did it for Brad.
LUCAS: And I'm secretly straight. Come on, you two! Why can't you guys just get a divorce?
BRAD: Um...because we're in some ginormous trouble and we have to stay married to avoid testifying against each other in court.
LUCAS: Say WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?
LIZ'S HOUSE
LIZ: (over phone) Heads up, Nikolas: Michael hired Jake and Sam to investigate you. They're on to you and Hayden and they think you know who Jake really is.
NIKOLAS: I'll take care of that.
LIZ: By "take care of" do you mean Le Grand Mort?
NIKOLAS: The less you know, the better. Gotta go!
WYNDEMERE
HAYDEN: Nikolas, I remember smashing that priceless vase to pieces.
NIKOLAS: (to himself) Note to self, consult Grandmother on proper poisoning technique. (to Hayden) It was just a vase. It's not like we don't have another one just like it.
HAYDEN: Another woman was here. She hated my guts and I hated hers. Who was she?
NIKOLAS: Just an old ex of mine.
HAYDEN: Whatever she said made me SUPER PISSED. Pissed enough to destroy a bazillion-year-old family heirloom.
SONNY'S HOUSE
JORDAN: Should I arrest you here or at the station?
SONNY: What did I do now? Steal Baldwin's Happy Hedgehog hair gel?
JORDAN: You know something about those men who "hit" your "shipment" don't you? Or did you off Goon #1 yourself?
SONNY: Those ain't my goons, Commish. Ask Julian.
JORDAN: Been there, done that. Besides, Julian isn't indoctrinating MY SON in the ways of the underworld.
SONNY: I am doing no such thing. Carly and I know what it's like to be disowned by a young, angry, self-righteous son. We uploaded a playlist of nothing but "Let It Go" onto his iTunes account.
LIZ'S HOUSE
LIZ: Confession time: I told Nikolas that you and Sam were investigating him.
JAKE: Aw shucks! He would have probably figured that out himself.
LIZ: You mean you're not pissed off at me for running my mouth to your nemesis?
JAKE: Nah! Nothing you can do could piss me off. I'm in LURVE with you and want you to become Mrs. Jake Doe. How does Uhlizabeth Doe sound to you?
LIZ: Better than Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, or Ti!
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Gag me!
DANTE & LULU'S APARTMENT
LULU: OMG, Rocco is SO SMART now!
ROCCO: (pointing at pictures in a book) Elephant! Cow! Zebra!
DANTE: What do ya know? The kid can talk now! Next thing you know, he'll be able to tell me the batting averages of entire Yankees starting lineup.
LULU: Including his own, right Rocco? Now who is this (points to picture of baby)
ROCCO: Uncle Baby! I mean Uncle Leo.
DANTE: Should we fill in his Mensa application before dinner or after?
Sonny assures Jordan that the two of them are on the same side as far as TJ is concerned as well as bringing the goons that tampered with his "shipment" to justice. Hayden has a flash of memory of her time at Wyndemere. Brad and Rosalie explain their marriage situation to Lucas. Liz tells Nikolas that Jake and Sam are investigating him.

Brad's Secret Wife...
...is Rosalie! That came out of left field! If being secretly married to Brad was Rosalie's BIG HUGE DIRTY LITTLE SECRET that everyone from Nina to Nikolas to Helena held over her head, then color me underwhelmed.
Danny meets Li'l Jake for the first time and the two boys play with --what else?-- toy motorcycles. Jake tells Carly about proposing to Liz. Upon hearing that Hayden's coming back to live at Wyndemere, Valerie packs her bags and moves out. Lulu tells Dante about working with Dillon. Nathan keeps his promise to Dante when Maxie brings up her apology to Valerie. Hayden is released from the hospital.
LIZ'S HOUSE
LI'L JAKE: Hi Danny. I guess you're my little brother. I have another little brother too, and a big brother. And two dads. Dad Lucky is fighting the bad guys in his head and Dad Jason died. I only have one mom, though. My family is really complicated.
DANNY: Wanna play with my little motorcycle?
LI'L JAKE: COOL! I love motorcycles.
DANNY: Me too!
SAM: Aren't they cute? They are definitely Jason's boys. I miss Jason so much! I wish he was alive to see his boys playing motorcycles together. He would be so proud.
LIZ: Yeah, he would be.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Well DUH! Of COURSE he would be if he KNEW HE WAS JASON!
SONNY'S HOUSE
JAKE: Check this out (shows Carly the engagement ring he got for Liz)
CARLY: It's beautiful, but I'm spoken for. I'm marrying Sonny. Again. For the fifth time.
JAKE: It's not for YOU, it's for Uhlizabeth.
CARLY: You still don't know who you are. Should you be getting engaged when you could already be married? Case in point: My brother Lucas. He just found out his fiance is married and it broke his heart.
JAKE: Yeah, well I may never know who I was before I became a speed bump for an SUV, so there's no point in waiting anymore. I love Uhlizabeth and she loves me. Besides, I already proposed and she said yes. I was kinda expecting a little more excitement from my best friend.
CARLY: We're besties? Like for real? Then, CONGRATULATIONS! You picked an awesome best fr--I mean fiancee.
SONNY: Am I interruptin' somethin' here?
CARLY: I was just congratulating my friend on getting engaged to Elizabeth.
JAKE: I gotta go. Got a ring to present.
SONNY: Still hanging out with Danger Boy?
CARLY: Jake is my FRIEND. My BEST FRIEND.
SONNY: Well, just be careful that bestie doesn't get you shot or blown up.
CARLY: I'm marrying a mobster. I know a thing or two about dodging stray bullets.
DANTE AND LULU'S APARTMENT
LULU: I'm going into business with Dillon.
DANTE: That's totally cool with me. I trust you, Lulu, just like you trust me working with Valerie.
LULU: Yay for mutual trust! But I'm still worried about you doing dangerous cop stuff.
DANTE: What cop's wife doesn't?
LULU: Can you at least give me some peace of mind and wrap yourself in bubble wrap?
WYNDEMERE
DILLON: So what made you decide to pack up and leave Castle Greyskull? Wi-fi hard to come by in your remote wing?
VALERIE: Two words: Hayden Barnes. Nikolas is moving her back into Wyndemere and, if it's anything like last time, I couldn't walk two feet without hearing them engaging in The Little French Death somewhere in this castle. Besides, I have a job and I can pay for my own place.
DILLON: Fair point. This place may be creepy, but damn, it would make a killer movie set. If I hadn't already booked the Haunted Star...
VALERIE: You're shooting your movie on the Haunted Star? With Lulu?
DILLON: She's not going to be in it, but yeah, she agreed to let me shoot there. So, what do you think of being my leading lady? Off-screen that is (kisses Valerie)
NIKOLAS: Welcome home, Hayden. This is Valerie. She lives here too.
DILLON: Not anymore. In case you didn't notice the packed bags, Valerie's moving out.
NIKOLAS: I can fix the Wi-Fi, you know.
VALERIE: Thanks for putting me up, Nikolas, but the commute is kind of a killer when you have to take a boat to work.
DILLON: That and you're a thief who spits on my cousin Emily's memory.
HAYDEN: (to herself) OMG, I just remembered something! I smashed a priceless Russian vase in this room.
HOSPITAL
BRAD: Just hear me out, Lucas. It was a marriage of convenience. There was no love whatsoever. We didn't even have sex.
LUCAS: Who is he?
BRAD: Who said it was a he? I have a WIFE!
ROSALIE: Can someone explain this deductible thing to--OMG, Brad?
BRAD: And here she is.
LUCAS: Say WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?
LIZ'S HOUSE
JAKE: Let me try this again, Uhlizabeth. (kneels with ring) Will you marry me?
LIZ: Who did you rob to pay for THAT ring?
JAKE: I'm working for the Quartermaines, Uhlizabeth. I don't have to rob anyone to pay for a lovely ring for my beautiful fiancee.
LIZ: Of course I'll marry you.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Girlfriend, you'd better be ready when it all hits the fan 'cuz it's gonna go FLYIN' right into your face.
DANTE AND LULU'S APARTMENT
OLIVIA: Mama's home! Make room for cannolis!
Danny meets Li'l Jake for the first time and the two boys play with --what else?-- toy motorcycles. Jake tells Carly about proposing to Liz.

LIZ'S HOUSE
JAKE: Let me try this again, Uhlizabeth. (kneels with ring) Will you marry me?
LIZ: Who did you rob to pay for THAT ring?
JAKE: I'm working for the Quartermaines, Uhlizabeth. I don't have to rob anyone to pay for a lovely ring for my beautiful fiancee.
LIZ: Of course I'll marry you.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Girlfriend, you'd better be ready when it all hits the fan 'cuz it's gonna go FLYIN' right into your face.

You DO Have A Motive!
Offscreen, Mrs. Shipley endears herself to her new boss, Ric, by whispering in his ear that Franco had a "heated, murderous argument" with Silas on the day the doc bit the dust. Scott suspects Franco is covering for Nina. Maxie apologizes to Valerie, but that doesn't mean she has let her guard down about Lulu's cuz. Dante and Nathan are unable to get answers out of one of the men accused with "shipment tampering" before the guy dies of his gunshot wound. Jordan isn't buying Julian's innocence. Carly empathizes with Jordan's estrangement from her son. Nina confronts Ava and threatens to expose her. Dillon has a business proposition for Lulu.
PCPD INTERROGATION ROOM
FRANCO: You'd better watch out, Pops. Dr. Obrecht diagnosed me with a highly contagious fish odor disease. And leprosy.
SCOTT: You have to tell me this the day my HAZMAT suit is at the cleaner's! Anyway, I've got some bad news. Mrs. Shipley says you were having a heated and MURDEROUS argument with Silas Clay the day he was offed. Is this true?
FRANCO: Define "murderous argument".
SCOTT: Those were her words, not mine. What were you arguing with Silas about?
FRANCO: Well, things escalated a bit when we got into a debate about tomatoes being a fruit or a vegetable, but nothing to knife a guy in the back over.
SCOTT: Are you sure? Mrs. Shipley heard the name Nina.
FRANCO: So we had a disagreement about what color her hair was once we got tired of arguing about whether the chicken or the egg came first. Big deal!
SCOTT: I think you're covering for someone and that someone is your once and future girlfriend.
JULIAN'S APARTMENT
NINA: I know who you are. You're no Denise DiMuccio. You're Ava Jerome.
AVA/"DENISE": I don't know what yoah tawkin' about. Of coahse I'm Denise DiMuccio. Shouldn't you be in da funny farm oah sumthin?
NINA: Eighty-six the accent Ava. Franco filled me in. I know who you are. I. KNOW. WHO. YOU. ARE. You're Ava and you murdered the man who saved your life. You're going DOWN! DOWN, Ava, DOWN!
AVA: Not so fast, NI-NA! If you turn me in, I'll turn you in. Cell phone cameras are something else, aren't they?
NINA: Gimme that! GIM-ME THAT! (Lunges at Ava and the phone falls to the floor). POOF! The picture's gone! I deleted it. Maybe I should use this here phone to call the cops to update the Ava Jerome Body Count. It's at two now right? Silas Clay and that girlfriend of Sonny's.
AVA: Nice try, but you're no match for THE CLOUD. The internet is forever, Nina.
NINA: Oh, so there's a CLOUD full of pictures in the sky? Come on, Ava! I may have been a coma for two decades, but I wasn't born yesterday. You show that picture to the cops and I'll tell them who you really are behind that wig and phony accent.
JORDAN'S OFFICE
JULIAN: Look, Commish, those guys don't work for me anymore and didn't leave me a forwarding address.
JORDAN: Why am I not convinced that your hands are clean?
ALEXIS: Oh, for crying out loud, Commissioner, what does my client have to do to prove he's not in the business anymore?
JORDAN: He can start by telling me whatever it is he's trying to hide. You don't just "retire" from the mob, Julian. It doesn't work like that.
JULIAN: It does if you're the boss. See you, Commish. Wouldn't wanna be you.
MOTEL ROOM
DANTE & NATHAN: PCPD! OPEN UP!
INJURED MOBSTER: AAAAGGGUUUUHHH
DANTE: Who shot you? Was it Julian? Was it Sonny? You gotta help me here!
NATHAN: Too late. He's toast.
DANTE: CRAP!
PCPD
MAXIE: So, Valerie, I'm sorry for calling you a homewrecking bitch at the MetroCourt. I'm known for being a little, let's call it melodramatic.
VALERIE: I'll say. Lulu's lucky to have you as her guard dog.
MAXIE: Did you just call me a dog? Am I going to have to unapologize?
VALERIE: Overreact much? I meant to say Lulu's lucky that you have her back, but you could dial it down a few notches. (Sees Dante with blood on his shirt) OMG!!!! DANTE!!!!! HAVE YOU BEEN SHOT? ARE YOU DYING? PLEASE DON'T DIE, DANTE!!!!
DANTE: Relax, it's not my blood.
MAXIE: Overreact much?
VALERIE: Touche.
SONNY AND CARLY'S HOUSE
CARLY: I kinda feel sorry for Jordan since TJ hates her and all. I remember when Michael hated me. Thank God that's over with. Still, Jordan's totes annoying.
SONNY: Can't argue with you there. Let's have sex.
CARLY: Not right now. I have to buy a wedding dress.
SONNY: ANOTHER ONE? We're recycling our wedding vows, so how about being green and recycling one of the dresses from the first four times we got hitched?
CARLY: Since when did you care about sustainability, Sonny? Besides, those dresses are full of bad juju because those marriages didn't last.
HAUNTED STAR
DILLON: So, Lulu, wanna go into the movie biz with me? You can play Marjorie.
LULU: Say WHAAAAAAAAAT?
DILLON: Relax! I was kidding about being IN the movie. At least about you acting in it. This boat, however, is another story. I want to shoot my movie here, on the Haunted Star.
LULU: Are you sure? This boat has a Cassadine curse on it. It was almost blown up by my dad when Crazy Evil Grandpa was occupying his body.
DILLON: All the more reason it would make a great movie location. Curses. Explosions. Think of all the symbolism, Lulu! Will you do it?
LULU: When you put it that way, what the hell? Let's do it!

Fish Odor Syndrome
Good one, Dr. O! Liesl scares the cop off by telling him Franco has Trimethylaminuria, or "Fish Odor Syndrome" which cracked me up because that was a diagnosis for a very unfortunate patient on the British series Doc Martin. Meanwhile, Nina plays checkers and hashes out her Franco-Liesl dilemma with a catatonic patient at Shadybrook. Ghost Silas taunts Ava in a way that rivals Ghost Carrrrrrrrlos taunting Anna. And he breaks out into song, but not on the actual show. Only here, on General Hilarity do ghosts sing.
Morgan tries to comfort Kiki before the memorial. Jordan crashes a bonding session between TJ, Sonny, & Carly and Sonny gives her information on who he thinks hijacked his "shipment". Scott learns that Ric has taken his place as D.A. Alexis accompanies Julian when Jordan calls him in for questioning.
PCPD INTERROGATION ROOM
FRANCO: (over phone) Yeah, so I know who killed Silas. It was Ava Jerome.
NINA: Ava killed Silas? Why would Ava kill Silas?
FRANCO: Because she and Morgan Corinthos were going at it like two very horny bunny rabbits.
NINA: That SKANKETY SKANK SKANK! Listen, fellow crazy people at Shadybrook! Ava Jerome is a SKANKY MC SKANKFACE! So, Franco, did you turn her SKANKY ass in?
FRANCO: Not exactly.
NINA: Say WHAAAAAAAAT? But you know she did it and she can get both of us off the hook.
FRANCO: You see, here's the thing. Ava has a picture of you holding the knife over Silas's dead body. That could be a problem. But I've got your Auntie Liesl on it, so don't fret my lovely, innocent Nina who I believe in one thousand percent.
NINA: Auntie Liesl hates me.
FRANCO: But she LOVES me, so she wouldn't do anything to screw ME over now, would she.
OUTSIDE CHAPEL
KIKI: Why did Franco kill my dad? I still can't figure it out.
MORGAN: Hello? Because. He's. Franco. Case closed.
KIKI: He had no motive, Morgan.
MORGAN: Since when does a serial killer need a motive?
KIKI: I want to know exactly what happened and WHY my dad was murdered. I need ANSWERS, Morgan. He was about to tell me something before someone, possibly Franco, BRUTALLY STABBED HIM IN THE BACK AND WATCHED THE LIFE DRAIN OUT OF HIM!
MORGAN: Yeah, maybe he wanted one of those "My Daughter Partied In The Hamptons But All I Got Was This T-Shirt" souvenirs.
KIKI: I'm glad you find my dad's murder so hilarious.
INSIDE CHAPEL
AVA: Oh, Silas. Poor Silas.
GHOST SILAS: Cut the crapola, Ava. If ever I was sorry I saved someone's life...
AVA: But Silas, I LOVED you!
GHOST SILAS: PFFFFFFFFFFT! What says "I love you" like banging your daughter's horndog boyfriend. Congratulations, Mother of the Year!
AVA: I love Kiki and nothing you can say will change that!
GHOST SILAS: You love her so much you're pretending to be her aunt and sexing up her boyfriend. I was going to sing this little ditty I wrote on my way to the Pearly Gates to Morgan but I think I'll sing it to you instead:

Lyin' all the time!
You ain't nothin' but a horn dog
Lyin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a coward and you ain't no friend of mine.
You screwed over Kiki
By sleepin' with her man.
You screwed over Kiki
By sleepin' with her man.
You're the world's worst mother and you ain't much as an aunt.
SONNY AND CARLY'S HOUSE
TJ: Hey, congrats on getting married for the 10,000th time. I admire your determination.
SONNY: Thanks, TJ. You're comin' to the wedding, by the way.
TJ: You sure I won't be in the way?
CARLY: You're family and you're the kind that doesn't murder people and then going around not denying you murdered them.
JORDAN: Over my dead body!
TJ: Nice choice of words, MOM!
SONNY: I have a little something for you, Commish.
JORDAN: I have to say I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping for your head on a silver platter.
SONNY: Why have one head when you can have two? These are the thugs who messed with my shipment.
JORDAN: Ah, yes. Your "shipment". So should I charge these so-called thugs with coffee tampering?
SONNY: Follow the trail straight to Julian Jerome. You want someone's head on a platter, you've got it.
JULIAN'S APARTMENT
ALEXIS: What to we have here? A gift basket courtesy of the father of one of my children. Perfect! I could use some croissants and coffee and since you don't do carbs, I'll just help myself.
JULIAN: What's Sonny doing sending me gift baskets. He's not my prison wife anymore.
ALEXIS: He knows I can't resist the dark roasted.
JULIAN: Yeah, that's it.
ALEXIS: Looks like some Russian mobster bit the dust. Does Serge ring a bell to you?
JULIAN: Back when I was a mobster, I did some business with him.
ALEXIS: Nice to hear you referring to your mobster days in the past tense. It makes sleeping with you that much easier.
RIC'S OFFICE
LIESL OBRECHT: I must see ze D.A. RIGHT NOW!
MRS. SHIPLEY: Who are you?
LIESL OBRECHT: I am ze Chief of Staff at General Hospital. Open ze door NOW!

RIC: Who's son might that be?
LIESL OBRECHT: Mr. Lansing? Vat are you doing here? Vere is Scott Baldwin?
RIC: Being Daddy to his wayward son, who I will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.
PCPD INTERROTATION ROOM
SCOTT: You're looking at your new attorney.
FRANCO: You can do that? D.A. must not mean what it used to.
SCOTT: PFFFFFFT! I quit. They were trying to railroad you and I couldn't let that happen to MY SON!
FRANCO: Did you take all your prized possessions with you, like, I don't know, a flash drive with a most fascinating recording on it?
SCOTT: What do you care? I'm here to keep YOU out of The Big House. So how is it that you had the murder weapon in your possession?
FRANCO: A careless butcher left his knife in my bag. It happens.
SCOTT: Nice try, but that knife was proven by forensics to be the knife used to kill Silas Clay.
FRANCO: I was gonna give it to you. Really, I was. But I had to get the raspberry jelly off of it first.
SHADYBROOK
NINA: So, Heidi, should I trust Auntie Liesl because Franco trusts her? Just between you and me, Liesl thinks I'm a few grapes short of a fruit basket.
HEIDI: (to herself) And you, lady, are like nails on a chalkboard.
NINA: I win! You lose! Good game, Heidi. Let's play again.
HEIDI: (to herself) Let's not. You annoy me.
NINA: I just don't trust Liesl. She has it in for me. Why my boyfriend likes her, I don't know. But Franco believes in me, Heidi. He really does.
HEIDI: Do you not see my blank stare? GO AWAY!
JORDAN'S OFFICE
JORDAN: Recognize these people?
JULIAN: I used to work with them. What's the deal here?
JORDAN: Used to? Are you sure it's all in the past?
JULIAN: How many times do I have to tell you, my mobbing days are over.

The Untilted Dillon Quartermaine Project
That's the working non-title title of Dillon's ubiquitous screenplay, which was the Special Guest Star of today's episode. Paul reads it on the sly and it inspires him to write Dillon a fat check for a half-million bucks. Lulu is moved to tears by the screenplay. The screenplay also reveals Jake Doe's true identity, who killed Silas Clay, and who put Hayden Barnes in a coma, as well as what Dante and Valerie were REALLY up to on the Fourth of July. And in the climactic scene, Rosalie's big HUGE largely-forgotten secret is revealed. Okay, so all of those revelations are a mix of snark and wishful thinking (wishful snarking?).
Liz panics when Jake proposes to her on the hospital balcony. At the chapel, Liz looks for answers and runs into Sam, who, unaware of the secret Liz is keeping from her and Jake, gives Liz a pep talk. At the PCPD, Valerie confides in Jordan about dating Dillon. Nikolas convinces Hayden to move in with him.
Q MANSION
PAUL: Hey there, son. How does 500 grand sound to get your screenplay off the ground? Sure beats one of those crowdfunding websites, doesn't it?
DILLON: I'm not taking a red cent from my deadbeat dad.
DILLON'S SCREENPLAY: TAKE IT, kid. TAKE IT!
PAUL: You know, the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree, son. I took the liberty of reading that screenplay of yours.
DILLON: Oh no you didn't! Only blondes named Lulu are allowed to read these sacred pages! It's strictly off limits to dads who wait over two decades to remember they have a son.
PAUL: So maybe I missed some stuff like all of your childhood and at least half of your twenties. How old are you again? The point is, we both have loved and lost and had to learn how to love again, am I right?
DILLON: Maybe, but I'm still pissed that you read my script.
PAUL: So, seeing anyone?
DILLON: Sort of. This girl Valerie Spencer. She's Lulu's cousin. She's not half bad.
PAUL: Now THAT sounds like true love.
DILLON: We've had exactly one date. Give it time.
PAUL: Hey, the only reason I read your screenplay was to get to know you better. What do you say you let your old man help you out?
DILLON: It's a half million dollars, Dad.
PAUL: Isn't that chump change to you Quartermaines?
DILLON: Fine, I'll take it.
DILLON'S SCREENPLAY: Finally, some sense, dear author. Oscars, here we come!
DANTE & LULU'S APARTMENT
LULU: (reading Dillon's script)OMG, such drama! Such angst! Such relationship destruction!
DANTE: Still thinking about me and Valerie?
LULU: You and Valerie just kissed. Marjorie had wild, passionate SEX with another man. Poor Declan!
DILLON'S SCREENPLAY: Poor Declan? Poor ME! These tears are blurring the carefully-crafted lines!
DANTE'S CONSCIENCE: Sounds familiar. Fourth of July with one Valerie Spencer ringing a bell?
DANTE: Who the hell are Declan and Marjorie anyway?
LULU: The two main characters of Dillon's screenplay.
DANTE: What, did someone die or something?
LULU: Not someone, Dante. SomeTHING. Declan and Marjorie's relationship. Their engagement. All up in smoke because she cheated on him. Let's have sex.
DANTE'S CONSCIENCE: Remember the last time you did the horizontal tango? It wasn't with your wife, buddy.
DANTE: Let's do it.
PCPD
VALERIE: I've moved on from Dante. I'm dating Dillon now.
JORDAN: Do you have a thing for guys whose names begin with D? Or does it have more to do with guys who know your cousin Lulu?
VALERIE: It's not like there are a whole lot of available guys in this town. Nathan is with Maxie and there's no WAY I'm messing with Lulu's vigilante BFF. Michael is with Sabrina. Morgan is with some girl named Kiki. Patrick is with Sam. Jake is with Elizabeth. And Nikolas? He may be a prince, but his castle and all those women he keeps company with seriously creep me out.
JORDAN: When you put it that way, I guess your options are limited.
HOSPITAL
JAKE: Will you marry me, Uhlizabeth?
LIZ: No, no, no, Jake. You're supposed to say "I'm KING OF THE WORLD!"
JAKE: That was last time. This time I'm proposing. Sorry I don't have a ring.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Hello? Dude's already married. To Sam. Put me out of my misery and 'fess up already!
LIZ: Um...uh...I really have to pee. (runs off)
SAM: I have to go to the chapel to pray for Silas's soul. And arrange a memorial. I promised Kiki I'd handle that for her.
PATRICK: I've got to check on a few more brains. Catch you later?
SAM: Later.
NIKOLAS: Move in with me.
HAYDEN: Why? I thought we didn't get along.
NIKOLAS: There's something to be said for letting bygones be bygones. Besides, I've been dabbling in so much darkness I'm starting to feel a little too Cassadiney for my liking. Putting up a hospitalized homeless woman would do my embattled conscience a world of good.
NIKOLAS'S CONSCIENCE: Bravo, my dear prince. Bravo! You are thinking like a true Cassadine. You must keep Hayden under 24 hour surveillance to ensure she does not reveal Jake's true identity.
NIKOLAS: (to self) Why does my conscience have the voice of my grandmother? (to Hayden) Take as many rooms as you want. No strings attached.
HAYDEN: Really? You mean to tell me I won't be your round-the-clock sex slave? That is SO not what I'm about.
NIKOLAS: (laughing hysterically): I have so missed your sense of humor.
CHAPEL
LIZ: Oh, wise one in the sky, what should I do? Jake asked me to marry him. But he's already married. To Sam. Because he's Jason. But he's the man of my dreams. But I am lying to him every day. OMG, I'M SO CONFUSED! HELP ME OH WISE ONE! HEEEEELLLLPPPP MEEEE!
SAM: Looks like I have some company. Whose soul are you praying for, Elizabeth?
LIZ: Jake proposed to me.
SAM: So you're lighting candles in a chapel and crying? Help me out here.
LIZ: He...I...
SAM: Look, I know what happened the last time a guy gave you a ring. All of Port Chuckles knows, and Ric's scummier than scum.
LIZ: But Sam, I...
SAM: If you love Jake, you know what you need to do.
LIZ: But he's...
SAM: He's in love with you. And I'm in love with Patrick. Aren't we lucky to have two great guys in our lives.
LIZ: Thanks, Sam. (leaves)
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Bok bok bok bok BOK!
HOSPITAL
JAKE: Where were you, Uhlizabeth? I'm sorry to spring that marriage proposal on you in such a random way.
LIZ: The answer is yes! I will marry you.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: (bangs head against the wall)
Liz panics when Jake proposes to her on the hospital balcony. At the chapel, Liz looks for answers and runs into Sam, who, unaware of the secret Liz is keeping from her and Jake, gives Liz a pep talk. At the PCPD, Valerie confides in Jordan about dating Dillon. Nikolas convinces Hayden to move in with him.

DANTE: Still thinking about me and Valerie?
LULU: You and Valerie just kissed. Marjorie had wild, passionate SEX with another man. Poor Declan!
DILLON'S SCREENPLAY: Poor Declan? Poor ME! These tears are blurring the carefully-crafted lines!
DANTE'S CONSCIENCE: Sounds familiar. Fourth of July with one Valerie Spencer ringing a bell?
DANTE: Who the hell are Declan and Marjorie anyway?
LULU: The two main characters of Dillon's screenplay.
DANTE: What, did someone die or something?
LULU: Not someone, Dante. SomeTHING. Declan and Marjorie's relationship. Their engagement. All up in smoke because she cheated on him. Let's have sex.
DANTE'S CONSCIENCE: Remember the last time you did the horizontal tango? It wasn't with your wife, buddy.
DANTE: Let's do it.
PCPD
VALERIE: I've moved on from Dante. I'm dating Dillon now.
JORDAN: Do you have a thing for guys whose names begin with D? Or does it have more to do with guys who know your cousin Lulu?
VALERIE: It's not like there are a whole lot of available guys in this town. Nathan is with Maxie and there's no WAY I'm messing with Lulu's vigilante BFF. Michael is with Sabrina. Morgan is with some girl named Kiki. Patrick is with Sam. Jake is with Elizabeth. And Nikolas? He may be a prince, but his castle and all those women he keeps company with seriously creep me out.
JORDAN: When you put it that way, I guess your options are limited.
HOSPITAL
JAKE: Will you marry me, Uhlizabeth?
LIZ: No, no, no, Jake. You're supposed to say "I'm KING OF THE WORLD!"
JAKE: That was last time. This time I'm proposing. Sorry I don't have a ring.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Hello? Dude's already married. To Sam. Put me out of my misery and 'fess up already!
LIZ: Um...uh...I really have to pee. (runs off)
SAM: I have to go to the chapel to pray for Silas's soul. And arrange a memorial. I promised Kiki I'd handle that for her.
PATRICK: I've got to check on a few more brains. Catch you later?
SAM: Later.
NIKOLAS: Move in with me.
HAYDEN: Why? I thought we didn't get along.
NIKOLAS: There's something to be said for letting bygones be bygones. Besides, I've been dabbling in so much darkness I'm starting to feel a little too Cassadiney for my liking. Putting up a hospitalized homeless woman would do my embattled conscience a world of good.
NIKOLAS'S CONSCIENCE: Bravo, my dear prince. Bravo! You are thinking like a true Cassadine. You must keep Hayden under 24 hour surveillance to ensure she does not reveal Jake's true identity.
NIKOLAS: (to self) Why does my conscience have the voice of my grandmother? (to Hayden) Take as many rooms as you want. No strings attached.
HAYDEN: Really? You mean to tell me I won't be your round-the-clock sex slave? That is SO not what I'm about.
NIKOLAS: (laughing hysterically): I have so missed your sense of humor.
CHAPEL
LIZ: Oh, wise one in the sky, what should I do? Jake asked me to marry him. But he's already married. To Sam. Because he's Jason. But he's the man of my dreams. But I am lying to him every day. OMG, I'M SO CONFUSED! HELP ME OH WISE ONE! HEEEEELLLLPPPP MEEEE!
SAM: Looks like I have some company. Whose soul are you praying for, Elizabeth?
LIZ: Jake proposed to me.
SAM: So you're lighting candles in a chapel and crying? Help me out here.
LIZ: He...I...
SAM: Look, I know what happened the last time a guy gave you a ring. All of Port Chuckles knows, and Ric's scummier than scum.
LIZ: But Sam, I...
SAM: If you love Jake, you know what you need to do.
LIZ: But he's...
SAM: He's in love with you. And I'm in love with Patrick. Aren't we lucky to have two great guys in our lives.
LIZ: Thanks, Sam. (leaves)
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: Bok bok bok bok BOK!
HOSPITAL
JAKE: Where were you, Uhlizabeth? I'm sorry to spring that marriage proposal on you in such a random way.
LIZ: The answer is yes! I will marry you.
LIZ'S CONSCIENCE: (bangs head against the wall)
