Sonny: I -- I just saw Bobbie at the Brownstone.
Alexis: How is she?
Sonny: She -- you know, she's fighting it. She's -- she's telling herself it's -- it's a bad dream and she'll wake up. She hasn't told Michael that Carly's gone yet. I mean, he's spending the day with Leticia, and I'm going to have to do it tomorrow. I just don't know -- you know, I don't know how I'm going to do it but -- what I'm going to say, I don't think it's going to matter because he's -- he's not really going to understand.
Alexis: Well, you just need to reassure him that he's not going to lose you, too.
Sonny: That's why I'm here.
Alexis: (goes into lawyer-mode) A.J. is going to attempt to have the adoption revoked, but he's not going to be able to do that because it's legal and it's signed. He did -- he signed away his parental rights. And I'm taking steps now to protect you as the custodial parent.
Sonny: Thanks, but that's not what I meant. I don't handle death well. I basically don't handle it at all, and that's wrong, I know. I mean -- I can't really do it this time, you know? I mean, I hurt the people around me to hurt myself. I push them away and I shut down. I cannot shut down on Michael or on you. You matter to me, and if I ever act like you don't, you need to call me on it, ok? Because at this time I -- I just need you, you know, around, and -- so if -- unless, you know, you decide you don't want me around or something. I don't know. You know what I'm trying to say.
Alexis: That's highly unlikely. Can I get you anything? Do you want some coffee? I mean, I can let you make it.
Sonny: No, no. I got to make some arrangements. I got -- you coming to this funeral?
Alexis: I don't think so. I just don't think it's the right thing to do.
Sonny: I understand. (He walks out the door)
