20, 2009 Transcript Mike: Here's a couple of cousins I don't get to see together very often. Nikolas: Well, I offered to take Molly anywhere she wanted to go for breakfast, and... Mike: And you picked Kelly’s? Oh! I am honored. Honored. Please, have a seat. Molly: Thank you. Nikolas: Thanks. Mike: Mmm. Well, are we celebrating, or are we all just relieved that Michael finally emailed and said that he and Kristina were okay? Molly: Actually, I'll be more relieved when they come home, and so far, that's not happening. Mike: They'll be back. Jason and Sam are old hands at rescuing wayward family members, okay? Okay. So, in the meantime, what can I get you two for breakfast? Molly: I'll have the usual, please. Mike: The usual? You got it. Nikolas: Make that 2, please. Mike: Make that 2. I like your good manners. And your coffee will be right out, okay? Nikolas: All right. Thank you. Thank you. Molly: Well, we might as well enjoy our breakfast before my mother arrives, because I'm going to be in some serious trouble. Nikolas: Well, I'll say this-- you were concerned enough about the family to not only sneak out but take a taxi to the docks, take the launch, get past Alfred, all in the middle of the night. I'm actually very impressed. Molly: Thank you. Nikolas: I mean, not that I would recommend you doing it again. Don't worry. I'll put in a good word with your mother, and I apologize again for being so distant in the past few months. I know that, uh, you've been going through a difficult time, and I'll try and be more supportive from now on. Molly: I do have one question about last night. Nikolas: Okay. Ask me anything. Molly: Why were you out on the turret wall talking to Emily when she's dead? Mike: Here we go, blueberry pancakes, bacon on the side, times two. Molly: Mmm. Thank you. Nikolas: Thank you. That looks great. Mike: Well, of course, you have excellent taste in breakfast, young lady. Nikolas: All right. Molly: You know, it isn't fair to put yourself in danger as you did last night. Nikolas: Yeah, you're right. You're absolutely right. Molly: We're all under stress. But what if we all went out to the edge of our roofs and talked to invisible people? [Nikolas laughs] Nikolas: Yeah. Right again. No, you're right. I was being selfish when I should have been thinking about the family, especially you. I know that your father just moved to Los Angeles, your sister just ran away, and your mother is... well, let's just say has some major issues. I'm glad, I'm honored, that you asked for my help. Molly: Mom says everything will be all right if we just don't talk about it. Do you agree? Nikolas: Well, I think there's something to be said for not escalating things. But I want you to feel like that you can talk to me about anything. [Footsteps] Molly: Do you know those people? Nikolas: Do me a favor, will you? Go ask Mike for some more syrup. He's right over there. Molly: Certainly. But just to be clear, we already have plenty of syrup. Dominic: Well, if you ever want to visit your old room, just let me know. My door is always open. Rebecca: Okay. I may take you up on that. Nikolas: Wow. You didn't waste any time, did you? Nikolas: Thank you. Molly: I've seen that guy before. Nikolas: Really? Molly: Yeah. He's some kind of messenger. Nikolas: Where have you seen him? Molly: Around. Is that why you're so upset, 'cause Rebecca's with a messenger? [Nikolas sighs] Molly: Nikolas, you're ruining Mike's pancakes. Nikolas: What? Oh. No. I like them this way. Molly: Really? Nikolas: Mm-hmm. Molly: You seem angry. Nikolas: Nope. I'm fine. Molly: Is it 'cause of Rebecca? It must be uncomfortable seeing someone who looks so much like Emily. Nikolas: So, we excited about going back to school? Molly: You're changing the subject. Nikolas: We should be talking about you, not me. Molly: Actually, I'm dreading school. I enjoy the coursework and all, but the girls in my class are saying terrible things about my mother. Nikolas: Oh. I'm sorry. I know that must be difficult for you to hear. Molly: It is. I wish I could stay home all the time and have a tutor. Nikolas: Oh, well, you know, that's how I was educated. It gets pretty lonely, though. [Door opens] Molly: You know that good word you promised to put in with my mother? Now would be the time. [Nikolas sighs] Alexis: Hello. Very nice. You buy her her favorite breakfast as a consequence for the very naughty thing she did last night? Nikolas: Actually, she was quite helpful last night. She has a gift for putting things into perspective. Rebecca: Am I interrupting? Alexis: Molly, will you please go tell Mike how much you like his pancakes? Molly: You can just tell me to leave, Mom. Don't have to make up an excuse. Alexis: Right. Rebecca: I just wanted to say congratulations. You were right. I lied to Nikolas from the day I arrived at Port Charles. Rebecca: I knew Emily was my sister before you discovered the truth. I came to Port Charles for a share of the money. The plan was to leave town with my accomplice Ethan Lovett. Helena Cassadine did approach me, but nothing came of it. And then, the plan fell apart. Ethan told Lucky the truth. Alexis: When did you find out? Nikolas: Last night. Lucky told me. Rebecca: Look, I'm not proud of what I've done, but it's not like I ran an old lady or a pregnant Woman off the road. As if that gives you a right to judge me. Alexis: You need to stop talking now. Molly: Mom? Alexis: Hmm? Molly: Sorry to bother you, but I have a riding lesson in about an hour. Alexis: Now, do you really think you've earned that privilege? Nikolas: She was just trying to help, Alexis. Alexis: You had no business running out of the house in the middle of the night. Nikolas: Yes, she knows. It's very dangerous. Molly and I have discussed it, and I'm sure it won't happen again, right? Molly: Mm-hmm. Nikolas: But riding horses is even more dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, and taking lessons is the best way to stay safe. You and I, we should go riding sometime. Molly: That would be wonderful. Alexis: Why is it that I get the feeling that I'm being set up? Nikolas: We've all made some questionable choices lately, don't you think? Alexis: Point taken. Are you all right? Nikolas: Yeah. Yeah. I'm fine. I just wish I would have listened to you sooner. See, your mother usually knows exactly what to say, most of the time. Alexis: Gee, thanks. You, let's go. Molly: Okay. Alexis: You, kiss me. Nikolas: Bye. Alexis: Bye. Molly: Bye. Nikolas: Bye. Nikolas: Why are you still here? Rebecca: I'm sorry that I hurt you, Nikolas, and I'm sorry that you hate me. Most of all, I'm just sorry you can't see past it.
