Thursday, February 14, 2001 Transcribed by: Laura S. Skye walks down the stairs of the Quartermaine mansion, wearing a glimmering, shimmering golden, strapless evening gown with a flowing skirt, she stops a few stairs from the bottom as Jax looks up at her dressed in a tuxedo. Jax: (looking up at her with rapturous eyes) I believe I've mentioned you're beautiful. Skye: Once or twice. Jax: Well I was wrong. (Skye appears curious, not sure where he's going with what sounds almost like an insult in the making) You're astonishing Skye. You surpass any woman I've ever known. Edward: If you're referring to vindictiveness and deceit, I'd have to agree. (Skye completes her decent down the stairs and turns to face her accuser, while the camera pans to show Ned, Sonny and Edward all dressed in tuxes opposite Skye and Jax) Ned: You can't seriously be thinking of taking her to the ball? She'll double cross you before you can pass the door. Skye: That's a lie. Sonny: No matter how they dress you up, inside you're what you always were, for sale to the highest bidder. Skye: Jax is different. Sonny: Bigger payoff, but the transaction is basically the same. Jax: Apologize to the lady. Sonny: What lady? All I see is a garden-variety tramp. Jax: Be gone Corinthos. (waves his hand and Sonny vanishes) Ned: What? Edward: Good lord. Skye: (turns to Jax incredulous with wonder at what he's done) How did you do that? Jax: Easy when you have power. You say a command and the world obeys. Skye: Any command? Jax: Try me. Skye: I want Ned to leave me alone. Ned: Huh? Skye: Better yet, I want him to do what I say and to come and go as I please. Ned: I will never take orders from you Skye. Jax: (to Ned) You will now. You are Skye's chauffeur. Ned: (now in a gray chauffeur's uniform with a cap, speaks to her in a servile Irish brogue) Will you be needing the car tonight, miss? Jax: (to Skye) Well, go ahead. Skye: Have the car waiting. Mr. Jax and I will be leaving shortly. Ned: Yes, miss. (walks by them and leaves through the front door) Edward: Now, for pity's sake Skye, this is just ridiculous. Skye: Can you do the same thing to grandfather? Edward: (now worried at what she's going to have done to him) No, now let's don't be hasty. Jax: (standing closely behind her, he asks) Wouldn't you rather do it yourself? Skye: Me? Jax: (now whispering into her ear seductively) You have the power, Skye. I'm sharing it with you. Skye: You mean that? Jax: Go ahead, give it a try. Skye: (to Edward) You're my butler. Edward: (now in a butler's uniform with a covered silver serving tray in his hands, asks her sweetly) Will you be dining at home tonight, miss? Skye: Perhaps a light meal after the ball. Edward: Oh, very good miss. Skye: (waves her hand at him imperiously) That will be all. Jax: (clapping his hands at her performance) Well done. Skye: I can't believe you've given me this power. Jax: Why shouldn't I? Skye: I've lied to you Jax. About so many things. Jax: Don't you think I know that? I saw through you from the start. You're charming and seductive, but it's all a front. Skye: (he takes her hands as she looks surprised at his revelation) It's amazingly effective. (pulls her hands away from his and walks away) Jax: (follows her) It's a waste of time. I know who you are Skye and it's who I want (takes her wrap, which is a long sheer scarf like garment and drapes it over her shoulders) All of you. Your fire, your sweetness, your beauty and your flaws. There's no chance you'll ever lose me, no chance I'll ever change my mind or walk away. I'm a sure thing Skye, all yours. Skye: I'm so afraid. Jax: Yes, of course. Yes, it's terrifying to need someone, but every day the fear will be a little less and the trust will be a little more and before you know it you'll believe in me just as much as I believe in you. You're loved now. Anything you want is yours. Skye: I want you. (Jax pulls her into a passionate clinch, they kiss embrace and he lowers her beyond camera level) [scene ends] Fade into Alexis standing in Sonny's penthouse apartment. She is wearing a black suit, buttoned up to her neck. Her hair is clipped up in back rather severely off of her face and she's picking up her glasses off of a table and putting them on as she prepares to read from the contract in her hands. Alexis: All rights and privileges not directly referenced here are reserved without prejudice to the buy out. Sonny: (in a black Armani suit, the gray shirt underneath it has the top two buttons undone and this is already having a subtle effect on Alexis' reactions) Does this say I own the casino or not? Alexis: It's a detailed contract with several important conditions. Sonny: The paperwork is just a formality. I already stole the casino. Alexis: Please, don't tell me that.
Sonny: Why? You like it when I steal. Alexis: (becoming flustered by his teasing) No, I find it... Sonny: Hot? Alexis: (getting more flustered) What? Sonny: Is it the fact that I'm bad that turns you on? (smiles at her with those soul shatteringly deep dimples) Alexis: (sits down on the couch and tries to steer him back to business) Said contract refers to the transfer of real estate between the party of the first part and...(Sonny takes her glasses off of her face) I need my glasses to read.
Sonny: Yeah, but you know what? You look so much better without them. Alexis: (looking into Sonny's brown eyes) Be that as it may, there's a great deal of fine print. Sonny: You know something? You have beautiful eyes, you shouldn't hide them. You know what I'm saying? Alexis: (smiling slightly at the compliment, she holds the contract at arms length and tries to continue reading it to him out loud) I suppose the text is legible enough. Part of the first part is not? Sonny: You know what, you don't want to read. You want to look at me. (she looks askance at her flirty client) Alexis: Michael J. Corinthos Jr., herein after referred to as buyer in the parties of the second part, Caribbean Partners, Caribbean Partners... Sonny: (interrupting to purr out his instructions in a quick, soft, staccato manner) Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You watch me all the time, don't you? (puts his hand on the back of her neck) You watch my lips and you imagine kissing me. (as he puts his fingers against his lips as if to demonstrate) You watch my hands and you imagine how they'd? Alexis: (she gets up to try and escape his relentless gaze, smile and flirty pursuit, he gets up off the couch and slips off his jacket, letting it fall to the ground behind him) The parties of the second part, herein known as Caribbean Partners... (Sonny rips the contact out of her hand and throws it aside) I need that contract. Sonny: No you don't. Alexis: (thinking to herself that contract is the only thing preventing me from jumping your bones, buddy) Yes I do. (Sonny reaches behind her to take out her hair clip) What are you doing? Sonny: Yeah, that's better. (as he takes strands of her hair in his hands and spreads it out, further loosening it from the confines she had it in)
Alexis: No, no, no, no it really isn't. Sonny: Well I'm the one that's supposed to be the liar, not you. Alexis: I just want you to know that I have principles. I do, I have a lot of principles. Sonny: I know, I know, I know, I know, I know. You have feelings too. You have things you need and things you want. Alexis: No, I don't want or need anything. (Sonny starts unbuttoning her jacket) Please stop that. Sonny: No, I'm not going to stop (he continues to unbutton her jacket) because this is what you want. I'm going to unfasten every single button on this thing and we are going to have a good time. Alexis: Huh?
Sonny: Don't be ashamed of how you feel about me, because I think about you all the time. (licks his lips) Alexis: You do? Sonny: Oh yeah, you should...I think about like... (leans over to the side of Alexis' neck and starts to nuzzle her there) I don't know, I think about doing this... (moves to the other side of her neck to give it equal attention) and I think about doing? (as he rains kisses along her jaw line and neck) Hello. Alexis: Oh, oh, oh please don't do that.
Sonny: You know what? First of all you gotta just let go. You've gotta let it happen. Just breathe. (he kisses her passionately on the mouth, as the camera pans pack to show that Alexis is at a loss as to what to do with her hands, while Sonny is pulling his shirt tail free from his pants) Alexis: Oh. (they pull apart slightly and she looks at him with passion glazed eyes) Could you please do that again? Sonny: Sure. (Alexis grips his shirt by the lapels and pulls him back to her insistently ripping the remainder of the buttons free of his half undone shirt) Oh baby. That's okay.
Alexis: Oh my. (Sonny kisses her, then he pushes her back onto the chair while he continues to embrace and kiss her) Oh God! (she holds onto him as they continue to kiss, nuzzle and embrace each other) Oh! (they slide down to the floor in a passionate clinch) [scene ends] Carly's fantasy Alexis: (she's talking to Sonny as Carly comes down the stairs into the living room, the strains of The Godfather theme can be heard in the background) They're pressing for a response. I've held them off as long as I can, but you need to make a decision soon. Sonny: (just noticing that Carly has entered the room) Carly. Carly: Is everything all right? Sonny: Yeah, everything's fine. Nothing to worry about. Carly: Okay. I'm going to go now. Sonny: Okay. Have a good time. (kisses Carly on the cheek, she walks to the door, looks back at him, purse in hand, then walks out of the penthouse. Johnny gets up and walks to the door and is about to close it when Sonny stops him) Wait, I want my wife. Carly, I need you. Carly: What can I do? Sonny: The opposition's going to make a move against me and I need to decide whether? Alexis: (cuts him off) You can't tell her anymore, she's betrayed you to the Feds. Sonny: Carly is...she's smart, she's loyal and I respect her. If you don't, I suggest you leave the state, no the country. Alexis: I apologize. I meant no disrespect. Sonny: Carly's the one you insulted. Alexis: I apologize Carly. Carly: Okay, then there's no need to discuss it any further. I think you should do what Sonny wants and make a preemptive strike. Alexis: How did you overhear us? Carly: I didn't. I just know what Sonny thinks. Sonny: Then, my decision stands. Call me when the arrangements are complete. Alexis: We still have other matters... Sonny: (yells at Alexis) We're finished! (Alexis leaves the room, obviously not pleased with being dismissed from their presence) Sonny: How important was that errand? Carly: Not very important. Sonny: Well, then you can open this. (he picks up a white box off the desk) Carly: Oh Sonny, you don't have to give me things. Sonny: What if I want to? If you hate it, we can send it back. Carly: (taking the box from him and before she opens it) I love it. Sonny: You haven't even seen it. Carly: It's from you, I know I'll love it. Sonny: Well open it, just in case. Carly: Oh, I told you I'd love it. (she opens the box and takes out a necklace with a charm) Sonny: Read it. Carly: I love you. Sonny: Te amo. Carly: Oh, je t'aime. Sonny: Te quiero. Tu vienas, mi vida canter es a te quiera mi corazon. Carly: Okay. What did you just say? Sonny: I said I will want to see you wearing this necklace and nothing else. Carly: You did not. You said corazon, which means heart. Sonny: You're my heart. Carly: And you're mine. (they kiss) Sonny: Dance with me. Carly: Now? Sonny: Yeah, right now. (music comes up, strobing lights caress them as they dance with each other and melt into a kiss) [scene ends] AJ's fantasy of a Rocky style fight between himself and Sonny in which AJ is the underdog coming from behind to win Alan: (behind the big fight microphone announcing the last round of this grudge match between AJ and Sonny) In a development that no one expected, the challenger has lasted 11 rounds. If AJ Quartermaine can survive another three minutes he'll be the first fighter in history to have survived the champion. (camera pans to Sonny in his corner with Carly and Alexis fussing over him) He's taken an incredible amount of punishment, he has been down three times and no one in this place knows whether he will be able to last through the last round. He has shown a level of determination that Corinthos has never faced before. Edward: No one will think less of you, if I stop this fight. AJ: I'm not giving up. Skye: You're hurt AJ. (she sponges him off) If he gets inside again and works those ribs again, he could do permanent damage. AJ: I refuse to quit. Courtney: (she's dressed up and her long blonde hair is in spiral curls making her look more sophisticated) AJ please, it's not worth it. Sonny's already hurt you too badly. AJ: I can win Courtney. Courtney: You don't have to. I already know that you're better than him. AJ: Everybody else has to. Courtney: I can't watch him knock you down again. AJ: I've got him right where I want him. Ned: (going over to AJ) Last round AJ, (walking over to Sonny) last round champ. Skye: All right. AJ keep moving and watch those ribs. AJ and Sonny proceed to the center of the ring, the bell dings and they start fighting. AJ is getting the worst of it as Sonny proceeds to use AJ as a punching bag. Carly's furiously chewing gum on the side of the ring as she watches. Courtney: (yells out to Sonny) Sonny, stop. (Sonny looks over his shoulder at his sister and AJ clocks him while he's looking away, sending Sonny down for the count) Alan: Down goes Corinthos, down goes Corinthos. The impossible has happened. Ned: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 (the theme from Rocky is turned up) Edward: AJ, I'm so proud of you. Skye: AJ, AJ you're a winner. (AJ gives Courtney a hug, meanwhile Carly and Alexis kneel beside a prone Sonny in the ring) [scene ends] Kristina's fantasy, she's a chanteuse and Ned is her piano player, the scene fades in on Krisitina caressing a picture of Ned in a heart shaped frame. Kristina: (singing)
Dear Mr. Ashton, I am singing this to you
(segues into another song, more well known) You made me love you
Ned: (singing back to her)
Kristina: (continues singing)
I didn't want to tell you
Ned: (sings back to her) I want a love that's true Kristina: (sings back to him) Yes I do Ned: (sings back to her) Indeed I do Both: You know I do
Kristina: (in counterpoint with Ned) You know you made me Ned: (in counterpoint with Kristina) You know you made me Kristina: (in counterpoint with Ned) You know you made me Ned: (in counterpoint with Kristina) You know you made me Both: Love you (they see Alexis wearing a light blue dress behind them, after an accusing look at them she walks away without a word) [scene ends] Sonny's fantasy Sonny is looking towards the open window as the filmy white curtains billow inward. Carly: (Carly dressed in a black negligee with spaghetti straps and a v-neckline, walks over to the window) Are you coming in? Sonny: Are you sure? (Carly walks over to him, pulls off his jacket from behind, then Sonny begins to unbutton his camel colored shirt. He sits down on the bed and she bends down to kiss him on the lips as they caress one another's faces. They look into each other's eyes and Sonny reaches up to grasp the straps of her negligee, pulling them past her shoulders, allowing it to slip to the ground. They kiss and Sonny brings her to the bed where they continue Sonny's fantasy of erotic love play with Carly) Carly: (asking about the scar she finds on his skin) Does it ever hurt? Sonny: It hurts more than you'll ever know. Carly: I read somewhere that scars will ache years after they've healed. It's called phantom pain. Some things are so terrible that the body remembers long after the mind wants to forget. Sonny: Scars are nothing, but a blank spot on my skin. What I feel are your hands, your hair. Sometimes I wake up and I reach for you. Carly: For me? Sonny: Yeah. It aches and I'm reaching. Carly: For what? Sonny: For this. (takes her hand in his) For you. I know it shouldn't matter, but I want it to last forever. Carly: It can. Sonny: Only if I trust you. Carly: You can trust me. (they kiss, embrace and caress one another again as he leans over her, obstructing Carly from view, as Sonny finally comes up for air, we can see that Alexis is now the woman beneath him in his bed, her right hand trails along his chest and then she puts her hand on his back as he leans forward onto his hands which are fisted together)
Alexis: You can trust me, Sonny. [scene ends] Laura's fantasy about Luke has them in a 40's Phillip Marlowe type noir detective scene. [scene ends] Heart Valentine card with the message: May All Your Valentine's Fantasies Come True. [end of episode]
