Patrick:
Here's the chart for the guy from the accident.
Alexis:
I thought all the new records were on digital.
Patrick:
The printers are broken, so we're going back to the old system until
we can fix it.
Alexis:
All right, so is this guy going to be ready to testify by next week?
Patrick:
Absolutely.
Alexis:
Okay, that's it, Dr. Fabulous. Epiphany, all ready for the opening
ceremony?
Epiphany:
This hospital's supposed to be in the business of taking care of
patients, not meeting and greeting. Monica Quartermaine should put
her face up on the monitors in this hospital, say "welcome
back," and leave it at that.
Alexis:
You're not going to celebrate at all?
Epiphany:
Do I need to remind you what happened the last time someone had
a party in this hospital?
Alexis:
Okay. I got your point. I'm still coming back for the ribbon cutting.
Epiphany:
I don't have the records. I don't have anyone's records. This digital
conversion is turning into a disaster.
Nikolas:
That's about it for the tour.
Rebecca:
Well, it's amazing. I'm trying to picture myself actually working
in such a high-tech hospital.
Nikolas:
The design team had some vision, didn't they?
Rebecca:
Well, because they had great leadership.
Alexis:
Nikolas really knows ho to pull together a project like this. He's
obviously been inspired.
Rebecca:
Well, I'm going to clock in and see you at the ceremony.
Nikolas:
Okay. What? Think I'm getting too close, do you?
Alexis:
No comment, but I will say that you are
responsible for a truly astonishing renovation, and I'm
really, really proud of you.
Nikolas:
Well, thank you.
Alexis:
You better be careful. You're going to give the Cassadines a good
name. Love you.
Nikolas:
Yeah.
Nikolas:
Excuse me, everyone, if I could have your attention over here, please.
Monica:
Come on over.
Nikolas:
Thank you. I promise I'll keep this short so you all can go enjoy
a tour. As you know, General Hospital is integral to the health
and wellness of this community. It also boasts a long tradition
of saving people's lives, making the sick better again, as well
as creating jobs for this community. I for one happen to be proud
to be a part of this reopening. I'd like to extend a special thanks
to Carly Jacks, who unfortunately, could not be with us this afternoon.
The pediatric head trauma unit was actually her idea. I'd also like
to thank all the members of the board, specifically Edward Quartermaine
and Jasper Jacks. Thank you. And that's it. I believe that our chief
of staff, Monica Quartermaine, would like to say a few words. Monica?
[Applause]
Monica:
Thank you all. Thank you all for being here for this newly renovated
and much improved facility. I think without further ado --
Epiphany:
Please, get these out of my way.
Monica:
My pleasure. And with deep gratitude to Nikolas Cassadine and everyone
who has made this day a reality. So, I now declare General Hospital
newly reopened.
[Applause]
[Buzzers
sounding]
Tracy:
What was that?
Edward:
Listen, what kind of shoddy construction did you push through on
the building committee? I told you this project was moving --
Patrick:
Listen, everybody, try and stay calm. We don't know if this is a
real emergency or just a glitch in the system.
Tracy:
Okay, all right.
[Audio
feedback]
Helena:
Congratulations. I'm delighted to see General Hospital is back in
business, and didn't my grandson do a fabulous job on the renovations?
I suggest you enjoy it, because it will be his last act of charity.
Nikolas, my darling, everything I have done, as always, is for you.
Until you meet my demands, no good deed of yours shall go unpunished.
