Docks

Jason: I need to speak to Diego alone.

Brook Lynn: Um -- ok. No problem.

Jason: Hey --

Diego: You know -- ahem -- you can thank me anytime for covering with the cops --

Jason: Shut up. I'm going to make sure you never talk to anyone again.

Jason: You spied on me and Sonny and gave Alcazar information that turned something that should've been simple into a near homicide. You made trouble for the wrong people for the last time, Diego.

Diego: No, no, look, ok? I -- I know I messed up, all right? But I've been loyal, I swear. All right, I messed this up. I'll stay away from you and Sonny, I promise.

Jason: Yeah, you're right.

Diego: Please, man! I'm only 17, all right? Let me live, please! Please, for Courtney, ok? She wouldn't want you to kill me, please! Please let me live, I beg you. Please.

Jason: For Courtney. But if you make any more trouble, you're going to end up dead. Get out of here.

[Diego leaves and Courtney comes out]

Courtney: Thank you.

Courtney: Jason? Were you ever like Diego? You know, reckless and just -- and desperate to prove yourself?

Jason: Oh, you know, Sonny was the first person to really help me and the first person who trusted me.

Courtney: I mean, you couldn't have really known what you were getting into, how hard it was going to be, and, you know, what you stood to lose.

Jason: The work suited me well; it still does.

Courtney: Yeah. No offense, but I want a better life for Diego.

Jason: I'm not offended. He's lucky that -- that you care about him.

[Phone rings]

Courtney: Hello?

Sonny: Meet me at the hospital. It's an emergency.

The hospital

Sonny: I just found out that I'm Kristina Davis' father. I want to be tested as a marrow donor.

Steven: Thanks for coming forward. I'll make the arrangements.

Sonny: You don't seem surprised.

Steven: Ned Ashton’s donor test proved that he isn't the biological father, and I've been urging Ms. Davis to contact the man who is.

Sonny: Alexis didn't tell me. I don't want her to know that I'm here.

Steven: She's been going out of her mind. I just think that it would be important for her --

Sonny: It would only make a bad situation worse.

Steven: Look, I'm sorry, Mr. Corinthos. My medical opinion, given the state that she's --

Sonny: I don't really care about your medical opinion right now, doctor, all right? Alexis has kept a lie from me for almost three years to keep me away from my own child, ok? I don't want her to know I'm here.

Steven: I understand, but she will find out eventually.

Sonny: My father, Courtney, and I will all be marrow donors. We'll all be tested. Do you understand what I'm saying?

Steven: I do.

Sonny: Then I will tell Alexis.

Steven: Excellent.

Sonny: Ok?

Steven: Now, let's get you tested.

[Jason and Courtney arrive]

Sonny: Hey, one more thing -- I'm Kristina’s -- I'm Kristina’s father. I will pay for her medical expenses. >From now on, no decisions about her medical treatment will be made without my input. I am taking full responsibility for my daughter's welfare.

Courtney: What did you just say?

Sonny: Kristina's my daughter.

Mike: You're Kristina’s father?

Sonny: You and Courtney need to be tested for donor compatibility.

Mike: Yeah. Yeah, of course. Whatever Kristina needs. Her -- her nanny brings her into Kelly’s all the time. She's -- whew, she's a sweet girl. She's happy; she's well-mannered, cute as a button. All this time she's been my granddaughter.

Courtney: No wonder Alexis turned against you. She just wanted to push you away so you'd never find out the truth.

Sonny: What about you, Jason? Why are you taking this so calmly?

Jason: Alexis asked to see me after Kristina got sick.

Sonny: Right.

Jason: Ok, and she was, you know, talking about defending me in the original custody fight for Michael and about how being a parent has more to do with love than anything else. She was just rambling, and you know what, it didn't make sense to me at the time.

Sonny: What, you think she was working her way up to try to tell the truth? What?

Jason: She said there was something else she needed to tell me, and, of course, Ric interrupted us and she never got to finish the thought.

Sonny: Well, she probably figured I'd take it better hearing it from you.

Mike: So then she finally decided to tell you herself?

Sonny: Uh -- no. I -- I heard it from Carly. She's known for months that I'm Kristina’s father.

PH4

Courtney: Hey.

Carly: Hey.

Courtney: I -- uh -- just came from the hospital. Sonny wanted me and my dad to be tested for bone marrow.

Carly: Then you know.

Courtney: Yeah. God, Carly, Sonny said Alexis told you he was Kristina’s father the night of the hotel fire.

Carly: Yeah. When we were trapped in the elevator, we didn't think we were going to survive.

Courtney: Oh, my God. Well, why did you keep it a secret?

Carly: Because Alexis begged me to.

Courtney: Come on, Carly, you don't even like Alexis. Why would you care?

Carly: Oh, Courtney, it's complicated.

Courtney: Ok. Did -- did you want to tell Sonny?

Carly: Yeah, he had a right to know!

Courtney: Ok, you knew that in your head, but maybe in your heart you were afraid another child would pull Sonny away from you and the kids.

Carly: God. You know, Alexis said that it would -- it would disrupt all of our lives and that -- and that it would be a huge custody battle, and then we would all be fighting and it would never end, and all of it is true. But, you know most of all, it's like -- Robin told A.J. that he was Michael’s father and blew my life apart, and I did not want to follow in those meddling, holier-than-thou footsteps. God, I just wish Alexis never told me.

Courtney: You know, Sonny was calm when he broke the news to us.

Carly: Hmm.

Courtney: Was that the way he was with you?

Carly: Sonny is focused on Kristina. And as soon as the crisis is over, he'll figure out what to do.

Chapel

Jason: Courtney and Mike have both been tested.

Sonny: All right. Dr. Webber say how long it's going to take to get the results?

Jason: Less than a half an hour.

Sonny: Well, you know, I got to believe my bone marrow is going to save my daughter's life. If not mine, then, you know, Courtney’s, Mike's. If that's not a match, I'm going to have to -- I'm going to have to have Morgan tested.

Jason: Is he old enough?

Sonny: Well -- uh -- Webber says he barely qualifies. You have to be a year old to donate marrow.

Jason: Is he going to be at any kind of risk?

Sonny: It's supposed to be safe. Painful. But he's little, you know, he's not going to be able to understand. Just like Kristina doesn't -- can't question why she's in the hospital, you know, without a father who can hold her, protect her, and all that.

Jason: I know that Ned would be here, but Alexis cut him out of Kristina’s life.

Sonny: It was right in front of me. I refused to see it. Ned was just a smokescreen to keep me out of Alexis' life. It's over, it's over. Anyway, I'm going to get my daughter through this, and then Kristina and I will never be separated again.

PH4

Carly: Listen, I have fought so hard to make things work with Sonny.

Courtney: Carly, please. You have forgiven him so much.

Carly: Yeah. Like him getting Sam pregnant and saying that Jason was the -- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Courtney: No, hey --

Carly: I'm sorry; I know how devastating that is for you.

Courtney: Hey -- we were divorced, ok? I'd already made my choice.

Carly: It doesn't make it any easier.

Courtney: Sam's right across the hall. She is due any day now. You -- you're handling this way better than I ever could.

Carly: That's because I wanted my family to stay together. And I love Sonny enough to forgive him and try and make things work again.

Courtney: Well, now it's Sonny's turn to forgive.

Carly: Huh. If he can.

Courtney: Carly, you did not keep this secret out of anger and spite. Sonny has to realize that.

Carly: You know, I don't know what he realizes. We haven't talked. Look, I do not expect Sonny to agree with my decision, how I handled it, but if he can talk to me about it without losing it, then maybe we do have a chance.

Courtney: Ok. Look, this is huge for him, Carly, and he's probably going to say things he doesn't mean and be emotional.

Carly: Listen, if Sonny loses it, if he calls me a liar and he blames me for betraying him, then it is over, and it should be.

Chapel

Sonny: I couldn't believe it when I heard the words "You're Kristina’s father." I tried -- I tried to absorb it all, but all I could think about was "You knew?" Our whole reunion, the commitment we made? You know, I thought this was going to work. But she lied to me about my child!

Jason: I -- I wonder what her reason --

Sonny: There's no reasons! Nothing justifies that!

Jason: Sonny, I -- you know Carly makes --

Sonny: I have a daughter. Carly kept a secret. Now, my daughter's sick. Kristina could die. I would've never had a chance to hold her, to spend time with her, all because Alexis and Carly made the decision to hide the truth from me.

[Knock on door]

Sonny: Yeah?

Steven: I'm sorry, but you're not a match for Kristina, and neither is your father or your sister.

Sonny: So her only hope for a donor is my son Morgan?
