**Kelly's patio**
(Sonny and Jason are sitting at a table, discussing business)
"So, you think I'm the man, Jason?"
"Yes Sonny."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes Sonny."
"Is there anything I should do, you know, differently?"
"No Sonny."
(Sonny smirks) "Let me tell you right now, Hannah thinks I'm the greatest (long pause). She calls me 'her little godfather.'"
(Sonny smiles, but Jason just gazes at him)
"What? Why are you ... looking at me that way?"
Jason (smiles): "I just (sniffs) I just never noticed your dimples before. They go so deep."
Sonny (looks at him): "I guess you just give me a reason, you know, to smile."
(The two men look at each other as Jaxman approaches the door)
Jaxman: "Dammit! Why must they be here? I told Jerry that this was a bad idea! Dammit!"
Sonny (sees Jaxman): "Speedo boy! Is there anything, you know, we can ... do, for you?"
Jaxman: "Be quiet dammit! I am still mad that you are using my precious Brender to be your new girlfriend Hanner. Why does she not notice? I love her dammit!"
Sonny (to Jason): "I don't think (smiles) that he gets it." (Looks at Jaxman) "Listen, her name is Hannah, and you better ... stop talking about her."
Jaxman: "You cannot tell me what to do. I am Jaxman dammit! And I am great!"
Sonny (shakes his head): "I don't know why ... you always just push me too far..." (Sonny stands)
Jaxman: "You want to fight dammit? Bee-cause I will win! I am Jaxman dammit! And I am wearing my Darth Vader speedos!"
Sonny: "Not for long..."
(Sonny goes to give Jaxman a wedgie, but Jason stops him)
Jason: "Wait, let me do that for you."
Sonny: "I can do this by myself Jason! You don't have to help me!"
Jason: "But I want to! Please Sonny!"
Sonny: "I don't need you right now!"
(Sonny gives Jaxman a wedgie, and Jason helps him. As they lift Jaxman off the ground, they look at each other and pause, each gazing into the others eyes, noticing each other for the first time)
**The Outback**
(Word has spread quickly about Sonny and Jason's new relationship. Nikolas was more than ready to pick up the shattered pieces of Robin's heart)
Nikolas (approaching the counter): "Is Robin Scorpio here?"
Bartender: "No, I think she's over at the PCPD, with her uncle."
Nikolas: "Thanks!"
(He rushes out the door for the PCPD, finally feeling hopeful about he and Robin)
**Kelly's**
(Hannah is sitting alone at a table, devastated after being dumped by Sonny. Tammy approaches her table)
Tammy: "Hi! You don't look very happy."
Hannah: "I'm not. Sonny dumped me. Do you think I should call him?"
Tammy: "I don't think that's a good idea..."
Hannah: "But he can't keep shutting me out like this!"
Tammy: "I'll get you a coffee..."
Hannah: "Could you make that a dozen desserts to go? I have somewhere I need to be...Oh, and make sure they're all chocolate."
**The Q Mansion**
(Everyone is digesting the news of Jason and Sonny's relationship)
Edward: "I knew that hanging out with Sonny would be the death of that boy!"
Alan: "Even in my worst drug induced hallucinations, I never dreamed of this!"
(AJ enters, feeling smug)
AJ: "So, I assume we're talking about Jason and Sonny? What a disgrace! At least, finally, you people will love me!"
Monica: "Well, I think it's just great that Jason found someone..."
Edward (Shocked): "What?"
Emily: "Yeah, it's not like anyone here ever listened to what he wanted. Sonny does, and that's true love! Now I have to get going, Juan is hiding in my bedroom..."
Alan: "Goodnight Emily."
AJ: "So let me get this straight. You're all HAPPY about this?"
Lila: "Why yes AJ. I have always been quite fond of Mr. Corinthos, and he makes Jason very happy. At the very least, he makes Jason actually speak!"
AJ: "I don't believe this! I'll NEVER win!" (Suddenly he stops, an idea forming in his head)
"I'll see you later, I have to be somewhere..."
**The Penthouse**
(Hannah arrives at the door, and Johnny is there. She pushes past him)
Hannah: "I'm not letting Johnny announce me only to have you dismiss me."
(Sonny starts to rub his temples, and Hannah notices)
Hannah: "What are you doing? Jason does that!"
Sonny: "He does? I never, never really noticed before, you know ..."
Hannah: "This isn't fair! This shouldn't be happening to you Sonny! You didn't do anything wrong!" (Pauses) "By the way, I brought some desserts over. Chocolate, your favorite."
(Jason emerges from the kitchen)
Hannah (defensively): "I didn't know you had company..."
Jason (defensive): "Well, he does..."
Sonny: "Hannah just brought by some desserts for us..."
(Jason starts sneezing and coughing uncontrollably)
Sonny (to Hannah): "What is in those desserts?"
Hannah: "I don't know, chocolate, vanilla ... I think one has coconut ..."
Sonny (Flustered): "Get those out of here! Didn't you know that Jason is allergic to coconut?"
Hannah (frustrated): "I'm sorry! Maybe it's best if I leave ..."
Sonny: "I think, you know, you should ..."
(Hannah exits and Jason and Sonny look at each other. Sonny is rubbing his eyes)
Sonny: "Now I understand why Carly always gave you a headache." (Pauses) "By the way, I liked the phony allergy thing. I found it strangely exciting..."
Jason (looks at him and smiles): "Thanks. I thought you would..."
**The Hospital**
Jaxman: "I am looking for ... I do not know who I am looking for dammit!"
Amy (gazes at him): "Maybe I can help ... Under one condition."
Jaxman: "What condition dammit?"
Amy (Looks down at his speedos): "Flex your muscle for me."
(She grins at him and he looks at her confused, not knowing what she meant)
** The PCPD**
(Nikolas arrives, out of breath, anxious to see Robin)
Nikolas: "There you are! I've been looking all over for you!"
Robin: "Sorry, I was just visiting ..."
Nikolas (interrupting): "Your uncle, yeah, I know. I just wanted to make sure you were alright, after what happened with Sonny and Jason. The way they betrayed you ..."
Robin: "I'm okay, really." (She smiles at him) "It was sweet of you to come by..."
(Nikolas smiles, excited that finally, Robin will be his. As he extends his hand to her, Taggert comes out of the interrogation room)
Taggert: "Well, well. If it isn't rich boy. To what do we owe this pleasure?"
Nikolas (defensive): "I came to see Robin, I wanted to make sure she was alright."
Taggert (smirks): "She's more than alright. She's with me now. Sorry!"
Robin (turns to Nikolas): "I'll see you soon Nikolas..."
(Taggert and Robin exit hand in hand as Nikolas looks ahead with a shocked expression on his face)
Nikolas: "Why does this keep happening to me? Maybe Jason has the right idea... (pauses)
"I wonder where I could find Juan..."
**Kelly's**
(Hannah is sitting at a table. After the dessert plan didn't work, she went for a 25 mile run. Carly enters the restaurant, and walks immediately toward Hannah, anger in her eyes)
Carly: "You just had to ruin everything, didn't you?"
Hannah: "What are you talking about?"
Carly: "Sonny. What did you do to him anyway?"
Hannah: "What are you talking about?"
Carly: "Come on. One day he's with you, the next he's with Jason. What's up with that?"
Hannah: "I could ask you the same thing..."
Carly: "And what the hell is that supposed to mean?"
Hannah: "Jason chose Sonny over you. And you guys didn't even sleep together? What did you do, turn Jason off of women?"
Carly (getting into Hannah's face): "You have a lot of nerve Little Miss Muffet!"
Hannah (in Carly's face): "The feeling is mutual!"
(Suddenly, the two women gaze into each others eyes. Maybe it was true what they say: The greatest loves can spring from initial hatred)
Hannah (softly): "Little Miss Muffet?"
Carly (softly): "Yeah, I thought it suited you. (Pauses) But if you want me to call you something else..."
Hannah: "No, I like it." (She smiles) "I like it a lot..."
(They sit at the table, exchanging smiles, as Jaxman enters. He was so excited when he heard about Sonny and Jason. Now, he could reclaim his precious Brender. He walked toward Hannah's table)
Jaxman: "Precious Brender! I love you dammit! I told you Corinthos was just using you! Now we can finally be together. Yay dammit! I am so excited!!!"
Carly (standing): "If you want to be with Hannah, you'll have to go through me first."
Jaxman: "What? This cannot be!"
Hannah (standing beside Carly): "It is, so deal with it!"
(Carly and Hannah exit, as Jaxman starts to cry)
Jaxman: "Corinthos is going to pay for this dammit! I will get my precious Brender back! I will dammit!"
**The Hospital**
(AJ has arrived, with a purpose. He sees Bobbie)
AJ: "Bobbie! Is Tony here?"
Bobbie: "I think so. Do you want me to page him?"
AJ: "Yes, please. It's very important."
**The Nurses Station**
(Jaxman arrives at the hospital again, this time looking for anyone to help him with his problem. Again Amy approaches him. She has dyed her hair brown and is wearing a name tag that says "Brender")
Amy: "Can I help you Jaxman?"
Jaxman: "Is that you Amy? I am confused dammit!"
Amy: "Yes, it's me. How do I look?"
Jaxman: "You look like my precious Brender, who now thinks she is someone called Hanner, who is in love with Carly bee-cause Corinthos dumped her. I am going to make him pay dammit!"
(Jaxman hurries away as Amy looks on disappointed. She calls out to him)
Amy: "Didn't you see my name tag?" (Pauses) "What do I have to do to get him to notice me?"
**The Hospital Waiting Area**
(AJ is waiting patiently for Tony to come over. Finally, Tony walks over to where AJ is)
Tony: "I got your page. Is this important?"
AJ: "Very."
Tony: "I'm listening..."
(The two men sit on the couch)
AJ: "You know Tony, ever since we lived across the hall from each other, I've felt this bond between us..."
Tony (confused): "I don't know where you're going with this AJ..."
AJ: "Just let me finish...(pauses) "Look at us: two handsome guys who haven't gotten any in, well, a long time. I'm a drunk, you're crazy..."
Tony (interrupting): "Are you saying you want to be with me?"
AJ: "Only if you feel the same way..."
Tony (looks at AJ): "Yes, I do. I was always so jealous of the time Carly spent with you when we lived across the hall from each other. I wished it was me over there and not her..."
AJ (regretful): "I didn't know..."
Tony: "I was going to come over there and surprise you, but I wasn't sure..."
AJ: "You should have..."
(They gaze at each other)
AJ: "Can you get away for a little while? There's somewhere I need to take you..."
**Wyndemere**
(Nikolas arrives, a look of defeat on his face. Stefan notices and decides to inquire about Nikolas' mood)
Stefan: "My son, why does your facial expression show such sorrow?"
Nikolas: "It's Robin. I thought finally she would love me, but again, she chose another. I don't know what to do father!"
Stefan: "I cannot fathom what Mr's Morgan and Corinthos are envisioning by expressing their affinity for one another at this juncture. It could not only mar their already unstable personal affiliations, but may also impoverish their impending business ventures. Besides Nikolas, I do not believe the Scorpio girl to be worthy of your affections. I always mused regarding what you perceived in her. She is not laudable enough to be a Cassadine."
Nikolas (shaking his head): "I'm going upstairs father. I just can't be around you when you talk this way..."
Stefan (calling out): "But son, I have always verbalized my conceptions in this manner. Of what do you speak?"
**The Q Mansion**
Edward: "Where is tarnation is AJ? We have a very important business meeting today."
Alan: "I've always wondered where tarnation is..." (Monica shakes her head)
Ned (enters the room with Chloe): "Hello everyone! (Looks around) Is junior late again? Figures. Anyway, I decided to bring my fake wife - who also happens to be my cousin - at least I think she is ... Anyway, I decided to bring her to this meeting, if that's okay."
Alan: "Hello Chloe."
Chloe: "Hi. Hey, while I have you all here ... has anyone seen my shoes?"
Monica: "Which ones?"
Chloe: "Not the ones I broke last week, but the ones I lost yesterday."
Emily: "You sure have a lot of shoes (pauses) I have to go now. Juan is waiting for me in his room."
Alan: "Have fun Emily."
(Emily exits and AJ enters, a satisfied grin on his face)
AJ: "Hello everyone! May I please have your attention? (He waits for quiet, then continues) I have an announcement to make. Since you all were so happy about Jason and Sonny, I figured I'd give some good news of my own. Everyone? I've found love!"
Lila: "Oh that is wonderful AJ! Who is the lucky woman?"
AJ (hesitantly): "Well..."
(Tony enters and the family looks around in confusion)
Edward: "What is he doing here? He's not a family member!"
AJ: "Well, he is now. Everyone? I love Tony, and he loves me. We're together!"
(AJ smiles and waits for congratulations, but instead sees unhappy and angry faces)
Edward (angry): "What? Is this some kind of joke?"
Monica (shocked): "What are you doing AJ?"
Alan: "I have never been so disappointed in one of my sons before!"
AJ (confused): "But I thought..."
Edward: "No boy. You didn't think! And it's all because of you Alan. What kind of a father were you?"
Alan: "Don't look at me, I didn't raise him alone!"
Monica: "Fine. Go back to blaming me. Isn't that what you always do?"
(The family continues arguing, leaving AJ in a state of confusion. He tries to yell above the group)
AJ: "But, I bought a new crane! Doesn't anyone care?"
(Defeated and ignored, AJ exits the living room, Tony following close behind)
**The Scorpio House**
(Robin awakes from her nightmare, breathing heavily. Sonny and Jason? AJ and Tony? She and Taggert??? What did she eat last night anyway? She breathed a sigh of relief, happy that it was just a dream. She got out of bed, grabbed a towel, and headed for the bathroom. After a dream like this, she needed a long bath. As she rounded the corner, she saw Taggert before her in only a towel)
Taggert: "Hey babe!"
(Robin shook her head. This couldn't be happening. All of this was only a dream! Or was it???)
