General Hospital Transcript Tuesday 12/18/07

=====

Mac: Sweetie --

Maxie: Mac, please, you just -- you have to let me see her. Just let me see her, please.

Mac: Hey, you can't, okay? Look, please, take her away from here, please.

Maxie: No, no, no, you can't leave me! You can't leave me! Please --

Mac: Okay. Okay, I won’t. Okay, I'm with you. I'm with you, okay? I'll be with you, let's go.

Lucky: What do you got?

Det. Harper: The murder weapon and the victim's cell phone.

Lucky: There's a text. "Tell your sister to meet me in the park." The guy was waiting for -- for Maxie, and Georgie showed up instead.

Det. Harper: Why would she come to the park alone at night to meet a perfect stranger?

Lucky: Maybe it wasn’t. Maybe Georgie knew the person who killed her.

=====

Robin: Have you heard from Nikolas?

Elizabeth: He's in Switzerland. Patrick called in a favor to get him an appointment with a specialist he's been waiting to see -- Emily put his name on the list months ago.

Robin: But she never gave up hope, did she?

Elizabeth: All she ever wanted was to be with him for as long as possible. She wasn't going to waste a single minute they were given.

Maxie: We have to go back. I want to see my sister. We shouldn't have left her.

Robin: Maxie? What happened? Were they in an accident?

Mac: Uh -- Dr. Winters is waiting, I'll be right back.

Elizabeth: What's going on?

Robin: I don't know, but it's not good.

=====

Lucky: So you were just passing through the park when Georgie was lying in the snow? I need a "yes" or a "no."

Spinelli: Yes.

Lucky: You know what? It's a bad time to start picking up Jason's bad habits, so if you know something, start talking.

Spinelli: Look, I just found my very dear friend lying dead in the snow. Forgive me if I don't feel like making conversation.

Lucky: Listen, I don't care how you feel. Georgie's dead, and you're not leaving here until you tell me who did this to her.

Spinelli: I don't know.

Lucky: I think you do. You didn't find Georgie lying there in the snow. You put her there, didn't you?

Spinelli: What? I could never harm such a kind and generous soul.

Lucky: Then you tell me what you were doing in the park when she died.

Spinelli: I told you, I told you already.

Lucky: Right, it's all just a coincidence, huh?

Det. Harper: Hey, hey, hey. Spinelli, you're free to go. Thanks for the cooperation. What's that about?

Lucky: Spinelli knows more than he's saying.

Det. Harper: The kid is in shock, just cut him some slack.

Lucky: You know what? He's doing exactly what Jason taught him to do -- and Georgie is the one who paid the price.

Sam: Lucky? Lucky!

Lucky: Come in. I thought you were in a production meeting in Manhattan.

Sam: No, the network had to reschedule. What's going on? Oh, my God. Is that Maxie's sister?

Lucky: Yeah, she was killed by the text-message killer.

=====

Lucky: All we know is that Georgie received a text message and she showed up here to meet whoever sent it.

Sam: Does Maxie know?

Lucky: I was the one who told her -- Mac's with her.

Sam: Oh, Lucky, this has got to stop.

Lucky: I know. We're doing everything we can.

Sam: Yeah, I know, but it's not enough. Somebody is out there stalking and killing women.

Lucky: We already released a description of the killer to the media.

Sam: Okay. Well, then maybe I need to take it on my show and ask the public for their help. This happened in a park, somebody has had to have seen something.

Lucky: And you need to be careful. There's no telling who this person could go after next.

Sam: Okay.

Det. Harper: The coroner's here.

Sam: It's okay, I'll be fine.

Lucky: You sure?

Sam: Yeah.

=====

Patrick: Hey -- I was just in the E.R. and Maxie was brought in for shock?

Robin: I know -- from what, though?

Patrick: No idea.

Robin: What about Georgie?

Elizabeth: Robin?

Mac: Georgie's dead.

Robin: What -- how?

Mac: She was strangled in the park.

Robin: Uncle Mac -- oh, I'm so sorry.

Mac: She's gone. Oh, God, my little girl's gone.

=====

Spinelli: Stone Cold -- uh -- the Jackal must speak to you at once. I have news of a most dire nature.

Max: I'll take care of it.

Jason: Okay, get started, thanks. Whew. What's going on?

Spinelli: Wise Georgie has been taken by the text-message killer.

Jason: What -- what do you mean, "taken"?

Spinelli: Um -- I found her lying in the park with a -- the cord. Um -- she suffered the same fate as noble Emily and loyal Leticia.

Jason: I'm sorry.

Spinelli: Yeah, well, I'm the one who's sorry. I -- I failed my faithful friend in life, I can't fail her in death. I must find Cooper Barrett and dispense the swift sort of justice. Will you -- will you help me?

=====

Jason: You did not fail Georgie.

Spinelli: Well, I knew -- I knew how badly she wanted to save her sister, and she tried -- without even a thought to her own safety. You know, according -- according to her phone, she received a text just before her demise, and it was the killer asking to see the bad blond one in the park, and instead of relaying the message, wise Georgie went alone.

Jason: Spinelli -- you -- you couldn't have known she -- she was going to do that. There's no way.

Spinelli: If I had just paid attention to the teachings of my master, I would've been known less for my cyber-skill and more for my protective prowess! Maybe -- I don't know -- maybe she would've -- she would've come to me for help.

[Spinelli coughs]

Jason: Look, I -- I know there's nothing I can say in this situation. We just need to focus on what we do know, okay?

Spinelli: Wise Georgie suspected that her sister was falling in love with the killer cadet, and based on the information I jackaled from the D.O.D.'s mainframe, it appears her suspicions were correct. Cooper Barrett must have known that wise Georgie doubted his clean-cut ways and sought to silence her before the truth came out.

Jason: We have no hard evidence on Cooper.

Spinelli: Well, wise Georgie thought she knew for sure -- and now she's gone. The Jackal lost the one person in his life that thought he was special.

=====

Robin: Dr. Winters gave you a sedative. It should help you sleep.

Maxie: No, I don't -- I don't want to sleep, Robin. I want to see Georgie.

Robin: You can’t.

Maxie: It's not fair. Georgie's the -- she's the good one. She's smart and -- and generous and so good to everybody. It should be me. It should be me. I should be the one lying in the snow, not Georgie. She didn't deserve this!

Robin: Neither do you, Maxie.

Maxie: Yes, I do!

Robin: Listen. She's your sister; she loved you more than anything.

Maxie: I treated her like dirt!

Robin: No, you didn’t.

Maxie: It's true. I was an awful sister. I said so many mean, hurtful things to her, and I'm not going to ever be able to take them back.

=====

Lucky: Mac, you don't have to deal with this.

Mac: I told Felicia that I would take care of her girls. Our girls. How am I ever going to tell her that one of them is gone?

[Mac sighs]

Mac: I'm so sorry, baby. I'm so sorry. This never should've happened to you. Not my sweet, beautiful little girl.

Mac: I love you. I only hope you know -- I only hope you know how much.

=====

Lucky: Anything?

Det. Harper: Well, according to forensics, the guy was wearing gloves, he didn't leave any prints.

Lucky: Not on the body, but he sure as hell did in the snow.

Det. Harper: Forensics has already taken pictures of all the footprints within a 200-yard radius. They're compiling a list to cross-check with all of our guys, then we can compare the remaining prints with whoever we bring into question.

Lucky: Good. We're going to start with Johnny Zacchara.

=====

[Phone chirps]

[Doorknob twists]

Lucky: Sam, it's Lucky. Hey, I forgot my keys. Are you there?

Sam: Hey.

Lucky: Hey -- whoa -- hey, hey, what -- what happened? What happed?

Sam: I got a text from the killer. I'm next.

=====


>> On the next "General Hospital" --

Tracy: You still need a bypass.

Luke: There's no way I'm going back on that table.

Sonny: Enough!

Carly: No! This isn't about Johnny, it's about Kate, and you know it.

Elizabeth: I need to be with you.
