General Hospital Transcript Monday 2/4/08

=====


Sam: Agh -- get off -- agh! Leave --

Man: Ugh!

=====

Lucky: It's too late for me and Elizabeth. You know, there's always going to be a part of me that will love her. I mean, she was the first girl who made me understand what love could really be. I saw things I never even knew existed, and we were kids.

Lulu: So?

Lucky: So, we grew up. And growing up changes things, even love. Elizabeth and I, we have all this stuff between us now -- the lies and the hurt, affairs, addiction, children by other fathers. I mean, we've been through so much -- I mean, how we even put up with each other -- right now, I just appreciate the fact that she has separated herself away from Jason for the sake of Jake. I don't know how long it's going to last. Lu, it's okay, relax. I know you know that Jason is Jake's father. How could you not?

Lulu: Spinelli told me. I didn't tell anyone, I swear.

Lucky: Because of your loyalty to Jason?

Lulu: Be-- no, because I didn't know what I should or shouldn't do, so I kept my mouth shut. I am so sorry, Lucky. I just kept wondering what Mom would've said.

Lucky: Are you kidding? Mom -- she would've loved if Elizabeth and I were able to work it out. I mean, she was an incurable romantic. A card-carrying optimist -- that's the way she was always.

Lulu: Well, she had to be. She was married to Dad, she had no choice.

Lucky: Yeah, well, she looks past things, even the bad. Looks like I inherited the blinders for that but not the forgiveness.

Lulu: What happened with you and Sam?

Lucky: She did something that I don't know is forgivable.

Lulu: So she did something to you?

Lucky: I just saw the kind of person that she can be.

Lulu: Well, we can all be rotten people under the right circumstances.

Lucky: Or the wrong circumstances.

Lulu: Okay, I am not defending Sam -- I don't even like her. She -- you know, I just want you to be happy, and it seemed like Sam made you happy, kind of.

Lucky: Well, I've lived with enough lies, enough to last a lifetime. And Sam -- not even 10 minutes out that door, she called back and told me something else that wasn't true. And the idiot that I am, I was starting to believe what we had could be -- real.

Lulu: And now?

Lucky: Now? I don't care what happens.

Lulu: I'm going to go to Kelly’s to get some takeout, but brace yourself, because when I get back, I'm going to beg you to let me crash here.

Lucky: You can stay here as long as you want.

Lulu: See -- you do care what happens to people.

Lucky: You're not "people," you're my sister.

Lulu: No, you care what happens to everybody, Lucky, no matter how angry you are. If anything, you are somebody who cares too much, and I think that's what leads you into trouble.

[Lulu sighs]

Lulu: You want to be a good father to Jake to make up for what Dad did or didn't do.

Lucky: I wish it were that easy.

Lulu: I also know that you want to protect Jake from Jason's enemies. If everyone thinks you're his father, then he'll be safe, right?

Lucky: The truth is I want to protect Jake from Jason, too. I know that you have a different take on the guy.

Lulu: I -- I just know how kind he can be.

Lucky: And I know the business that he's in. I'd rather she have a child by anybody else. But I still think that this connection is going to get her into some kind of trouble that there's no getting out of.

>> On the next "General Hospital" --

Jax: Tell me what happened.

Jason: Was it about Sam?

Johnny: Do it.

Lulu: Johnny!

Sonny: You're dead!
