  Johnny: Hey. No sign of Dominic.
  Lulu: Where could he be?
  Carly: No Dominic? Sonny's not here either.
  Jax: Okay, you know what? We're not gonna hold things up any longer. If people aren't here it's too bad for them. Come on, let's go. Come on.
  Lulu: Okay.
  Jax: We're ready.
  Father Coates: Oh, okay, then. We're about to begin.
  Lulu: I don't get it. I saw Dominic an hour ago and he was on his way. What could have stopped him?
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Dominic: You have the right to remain silent--
  Sonny: That's good. You go by the book. You don't want me getting off with a Miranda technicality after all your hard work, Detective.
  Dominic: Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law.
  Sonny: We're not gonna make it that far.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Father Coates: I exorcise thee, every unclean spirit, in the name of God the Father Almighty, in the name of Jesus Christ, his Son, our Lord and judge, and in the power of the Holy Spirit that thou be depart from the creature of God which our God hath deigned to call into his holy temple, that it may be made the temple of the living God.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Dominic: You don't want to do that.
  Sonny: Yeah, I do.
  Dominic: You really want to add cop killer to the list on top of everything else? We're talking first-degree. Once they find my body, you're as dead as I am.
  Sonny: That's the thing-- nobody's gonna find you.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Father Coates: I anoint you, Josslyn Jacks, with the oil of salvation in Christ Jesus our Lord that you may have life everlasting.
  Lulu and Jason: Amen.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sonny: I trusted you. I liked you. In some ways I still do. You got guts, you're smart, you gained acceptance from my family. I was seriously considering making you my successor. Bet you got a good laugh out of that one, didn't you?
  Dominic: I appreciated the irony.
  Sonny: Well, that's too bad, Detective. All that effort was wasted.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Father Coates: Will you be baptized?
  Lulu and Jason: I will.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sonny: Any last words, Detective?
  Dominic: Oh, yeah. You're damn right I got some last words for you. I want you to know... who this was all about. You remember Mr. Poletti? Lieutenant Poletti, from the old neighborhood? Well, you should, because you had him gunned down like he was some worthless bad guy. Except he wasn't a bad guy. In fact, they didn't make them any better than him. Any kids in my neighborhood who were lacking in something, Mr. Poletti came along and tried his best to make up for everything. I was one of those kids, trying to grow up and be a good man in a household with no male role model. Mr. Poletti stepped in. He taught me everything I needed to know and then some. And you had him taken out. You had him taken out, and you went on with your worthless, pathetic life. And chauffeured around in your black limousine, wearing your fancy suits, demanding and receiving respect from everyone. But not from me, Sonny. I don't respect you. I despise you.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Father Coates: I baptize you in the name of the Father... and of the Son... and of the Holy Spirit.
  Lulu and Jason: Amen.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sonny: I don't remember your sainted Lieutenant Poletti. But if I did kill him, believe me...he deserved it.
  Father Coates: May the almighty God, the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath regenerated thee by water and by the Holy Spirit and who hath given thee the remission of all thy sins, may he himself anoint you with the chrism of salvation, in the same Christ Christ Jesus our Lord unto eternal life.
  Lulu and Jason: Amen.
  Father Coates: Peace be with you.
  Lulu and Jason: And with your spirit.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Dominic: I think you should pray, Sonny, not for me but for your kids. You pray they never see you the way I'm seeing you right now. A cold-eyed bastard who'd kill anyone to get whatever the hell he wants.
  Sonny: Good-bye, Detective.
  Father Coates: Go in peace, and may the Lord be with you.
  Lulu and Jason: And with you.
  Congregation: Amen.
  Father Coates: There is no more sacred bond than the bond between parent and child.
  Olivia: No!
  Father Coates: So today let us celebrate that bond, that eternal connection.
  Olivia: Dante!
  Father Coates: Let us honor all the parents who try to keep their children safe from the evils of this world.
  Olivia: My God, Sonny! You just shot your own son! Dante, honey, it's your mother. Now, you just keep breathing. Okay, baby, honey, stay with me. Call 911!
  Sonny: What do you mean, he's your son, Olivia?
  Olivia: His name is Dante. And he's your son, too! Honey, you just keep breathing.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Father Coates: A child is love realized and brought to life. A child is a beginning. So in honor of today's sacred ceremony, I urge you all to make today a new beginning. A renewal of our love and commitment to one another. Make a promise to live a better life. And now, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, please welcome into our church and into our lives, Josslyn John Jacks.
  [Applause]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Olivia: Tell them that he's breathing but his pulse is weak.
  Sonny: 120 Harbor View Road. Gunshot to chest, bleeding heavily--yeah, he's still breathing, but it's bad. Can you just get here?
  Olivia: I need a towel!
  Sonny: I don't know where the towels are.
  Olivia: In the kitchen--a dish towel. I need to keep pressure on the wound. Get it now. It's okay. Baby, it's okay. I just need you to stay with me, okay? Just stay with me and keep breathing.
  Sonny: If he's my son, why didn't you tell me?
  Olivia: To protect him from you.
  Sonny: And you let it get this far? You know what I do to traitors.
  Olivia: Sonny! We just need to keep him alive right now. That's all that matters.
  Sonny: Are you absolutely sure he's my son, Olivia?
  Olivia: Yes! Dante is your son, and he's lying here fighting for his life because you shot him!
  Sonny: Let me help.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Lulu: Hey. Have you heard from Dominic?
  Johnny: No. And I haven't heard anything from Sonny either, and Olivia appears to have slipped out.
  Lulu: Okay, I'm not liking any part of this.
  Johnny: Okay, whatever's going on I don't want you getting mixed up in the middle of it.
  Lulu: But Dante knew how important this christening was to me. He wouldn't have bailed.
  Johnny: Okay, but maybe all along Dominic's plan was to arrest Sonny during the christening and he didn't want you to know about it.
  Lulu: No. No, no, no, no. I--I don't think so. I have a bad feeling.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Luke: Well, we got through a whole ceremony without a shootout. This is some kind of record.
  Tracy: Does that mean we can go home now?
  Lucky: Lulu asked for some extra support. We should probably refrain from stampeding the exits.
  Ethan: Oh, no stampeding here. I thought the ceremony was quite lovely. To think, the idea of having a miniature person who depends on you.
  Tracy: Children are a tremendous responsibility.
  Luke: Yes, but on a day like this, when I've got all 3 of my kids in sight and they're all safe, you know, it's all worth it.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Morgan: I don't know why Dad isn't here yet.
  Michael: I guess something just came up last-minute. You know how it goes.
  Morgan: What about Dominic? He promised he'd be here.
  Michael: Well, I'm sorry. You can't believe a word Dominic says.
  Morgan: I bet they'll show up at the party afterwards, though. I know Dad misses a lot of stuff, but even so, he always knows how to make it right.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sonny: If the ambulance doesn't get here soon, I'm gonna take him to the hospital myself.
  Olivia: No, we wait for the paramedics.
  Sonny: I'm not gonna sit here and watch my son bleed to death on my living room floor. How could you do this to me? How could you let this happen?
  Olivia: It was a mistake! I made several mistakes, okay? Just--just stay with me, okay? All you need to do is keep breathing. The ambulance is on its way and the doctors are gonna fix you right up. I just need you to hold on.
  Sonny: So he's such a dedicated cop that he went against his father? Did you turn him against me?
  Olivia: He doesn't know that you're his father. As far as he's concerned, you're just another thug that needs to be shut down.
  Sonny: Why didn't you just tell me the truth, Olivia? We could have worked something out. I don't care he's a cop. I don't care what he's done. I would never raise a hand against my own child.
  Olivia: Go check and make sure the gates are open. We can't let anything slow the ambulance down.
  Sonny: If they're not here in 3 minutes, I'm taking him.
  Olivia: No! You could make it worse, Sonny. You don't know how much damage the bullet did. He could be bleeding inside.
  Sonny: It makes sense now, the way you stood beside him at that carnival. He almost died trying to save Morgan's life.
  Olivia: If he'd needed a transplant I would have told you.
  Sonny: Yeah, but you didn't. You stood by and watched while he--my son--went undercover to go against me.
  Olivia: Your son is an excellent cop, Sonny. He's dedicated, he's incorruptible, and he never would have stopped until this case was closed.
  Sonny: This is all wrong, Olivia. You should have told me.
  [Sirens]
  Olivia: Thank God, thank God. I'm gonna go let them in here. Don't let him die.
  [Sirens coming closer]
  Sonny: Hey, you gotta understand, this would not have happened if I knew... we're a lot alike in a lot of ways. I mean...you're gonna get through this.
  Paramedic: How do you know this man?
  Olivia: I'm his mother.
  Paramedic: How many times was he shot?
  Olivia: Once.
  Paramedic: Did he hit his head?
  Olivia: Not that I know of. Sonny, did he hit his head?
  Sonny: He just--he just fell from the bullet.
  Paramedic: Does he have any preexisting medical conditions?
  Olivia: Um, a concussion from when he fell on a fire escape when he was 10. Uh, a broken arm in high school. He keeps himself in good shape. He doesn't smoke, social drinker. Um, overall he's very healthy.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Maxie: I think that the--the christening was fine, but the gown was just gorgeous. Hey, Lulu, do you think I could sell Kate on the idea of doing a layout on baby gowns? They're coming back.
  Spinelli: Um, given the sacred intent of the ceremony, I'm not sure that the gown was the most important element.
  Father Coates: Excuse me. Everyone, could I have your attention, please? On behalf of the Jacks family, I'd like to invite you all to a reception at the Jacks home.
  [Applause]
  Alexis: Congratulations.
  Carly: Thanks.
  Alexis: Hi. I'm sorry, I can't make the reception.
  Jax: Oh, that's okay. It must be a pretty important arbitration you're doing.
  Alexis: Well, it is, and I've already asked for a long recess. I don't want to push my luck.
  Jax: Okay. Well, thanks for making it to the ceremony.
  Alexis: That's what we do. I'm so happy for you. Really, I am, and I love you.
  Jax: Aww. Thank you.
  Alexis: Mmm.
  Jax: See you.
  Alexis: Bye. Good-bye.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Molly: Morgan, I need your help. It's important.
  Morgan: We're just about to leave for the party.
  Molly: Come here. It's in the name of true love.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Michael: Hey, where do you think Dominic and Dad are? Did you get the case shut down?
  Jax: I'm still waiting for confirmation, Michael.
  Michael: Okay. You know, I'm really glad you're taking care of this. I know you hate Dad, but you'd never want him to go prison. I mean, it would be terrible for Mom and for me and Morgan. Anyway, I really appreciate your help.
  Jax: No worries.
  Jane: Well, I hope that was not what it looked like--telling a bold-faced lie to your stepson.
  Jax: Mom. It's my job to protect my family, okay, even if that means losing everything. I don't want Josslyn to grow up with fear. I don't want her to go out with bodyguards following her around like Michael and Morgan. I want her to have a good life.
  Jane: Even if her parents are at war? What kind of life is that?
  Jax: You know what? It's done. Sonny's being arrested at any moment now.
  Jane: Well, I'm sure he deserves it, but I--I can't help but feeling sorry for Michael and Morgan, well, for all of you, really.
  Jax: Yeah, thanks. Yeah, Carly's gonna know about my involvement, and Michael's gonna know that I lied to him. So...
  Jane: Well...I hope it's worth it, Jax.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Carly: Thank you for being Josslyn's godfather. You were great.
  Jason: It wasn't that difficult.
  Carly: It was for you. I know you didn't want to do it, but you did it for me, and I love you.
  Jason: You're welcome.
  Carly: You know, I can't believe Sonny didn't come. The boys missed him, and he loves things like this.
  Bobbie: Well, something must have come up.
  Carly: Yeah. Or maybe he decided to keep his distance and let this day be about the future.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Paramedic: All right, 1, 2, 3.
  Olivia: I'm riding with him. I'm his mother.
  Paramedic: Family only, sir.
  Sonny: Okay, wait a minute, okay? I'm his father.
  Paramedic: All right, come on. Let's go.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sam: Hey.
  Jason: You seen Morgan? He said that he wanted to meet me here--
  Sam: Oh, I can't believe this. Molly told me the exact same thing. Molly! Come on, don't make me come looking for you!
  Molly: Sam, making vague threats to your little sister is the exact opposite of romantic.
  Sam: Hey, I can't believe you went along with this.
  Morgan: I can't either. I just want to get home before Mom eats all the cake. You're supposed to give me a ride.
  Jason: Then what are we doing here?
  Sam: Yeah.
  Molly: Just look around. Wouldn't this be a great place for a wedding?
  Jason: Okay, we need to get back to that house.
  Molly: You know, Jason, you're an extremely romantic, if slightly tragic character, but you could be a little more flexible.
  Morgan: He's a guy, not a character.
  Sam: This is none of your business.
  Molly: Look, can't you just picture a lovely, intimate wedding, the organ playing Bach, Maxie, Kristina, and me as bridesmAIDS? And if you want, I could read Byron or Edna St. Vincent Millay.
  Sam: Uh, no, no, no. Jason and I are not getting married.
  Morgan: Can we go to the party now?
  Molly: But, Sam, life is short and filled with peril, especially for you two. So carpe diem--seize the day. Hello! Now's the moment to propose.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Carly: Wow, look at all those Spencers. Someone take a picture.
  Luke: Um, a little heavy on the family bonding there, niece.
  Carly: Jax is opening champagne. There's also, um, sparkling cider, in case anyone's interested.
  Luke: Sparkling cider. Not today, thanks.
  Carly: Well, I blame Elizabeth for all this.
  Luke: Well, you may not be in a position to throw stones, given all the men and marriages with your tire tracks across their back. Now, that's not criticism. It's just a caution not to judge.
  Lulu: Okay, so, the difference is that Carly doesn't claim to be anyone's angel, whereas Elizabeth did.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Monica: Maxie. I understand things are going very well for you. Mac must be proud.
  Maxie: Thank you.
  Spinelli: Maximista is indeed coming into her own.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Milo: We should have heard something by now.
  Max: It's a remote stretch of road. It could take a while to find a car that goes flying off a hairpin curve.
  Michael: You guys heard from Dad? He's not picking up.
  Max: Yeah, yeah, he's fine.
  Milo: Yeah. Go and join the party now.
  [Cell phone rings]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sam: A lot of people are really happy without getting married.
  Molly: Yes, but, what about two hearts beating as one, running across the moors hand in hand, the blessed union of souls? What about fate and destiny, Sam?
  Morgan: What about the party we're missing, Sam?
  Sam: What about, I'm not getting married to Jason or anybody else anytime soon, and if I do, it's gonna be my decision, and I don't need to hear it from my little sister.
  Molly: So you haven't completely ruled out marriage to Jason at some indefinite time in the future?
  Jason: Oh, Molly. You know, we should probably drop this, just to respect what your sister wants, right?
  Molly: Certainly. But I'm still gonna be a bridesmaid, right?
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  [Siren]
  Sonny: If you're making this up to save your son's life, you need to tell me now.
  Olivia: Dante is your son.
  Sonny: Does anyone know? Your parents?
  Olivia: I kept it a secret his entire life to keep him from winding up where he is right now.
  Sonny: By not telling me, you made it happen.
  Olivia: Sonny, if he can hear us right now, he needs to know that he's gonna live, not whose fault it is that he got shot.
  [Beeping]
  Sonny: What's wrong?
  Paramedic: He's in hypovolemic shock.
  [Beeping]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Maxie: Lulu, you're trying to hide it, but I know you're obsessing about Dominic.
  Lulu: He was supposed to be at the christening, and he would not miss this party. He knows how much it means to me. He's not answering his phone.
  Maxie: That's a little unsettling.
  Spinelli: No doubt the audacious one was pulled into last-minute service by Mr. Sir.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Lucky: Ahh. Carly and Jax sure know how to throw a party.
  Ethan: Yeah. Nice ambience. You know, Carly told me that this is her dream house.
  Lucky: Really?
  Ethan: Yeah. I haven't even lifted anything yet, mate. I might be losing my touch.
  Lucky: You know what? Maybe you should be the upstanding Spencer for a while. I'm taking a sabbatical. And I appreciate the fact that you're not trying to stop me.
  Ethan: Yeah, well, as long as you let me drive.
  Lucky: Deal.
  Luke: Are you two going home together?
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Carly: Can I have everyone's attention, please? I just want to thank you all for being here. And it means a lot to me and my family that you guys are here helping us celebrate Josslyn's christening. I think it's really important for my daughter to have a family and friends like this. So thank you for making my life feel full and complete. And it's because of you, Jax, my wonderful husband. Thank you.
  [Applause]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  [Siren]
  Olivia: It's all right, baby. You're doing just fine. You just need to keep breathing. You're almost at the hospital. They're gonna fix you up. You just need to stay with us and keep breathing, okay?
  Steve: Okay, hang 4 units of O-Neg and run them in as fast as you can. Get a CBC, bleeding times, run a CMP, and get him to cubicle 2. Dr. Niles, take it from here.
  Lisa: Okay, let's set him on a dopamine drip, stat.
  Steve: I'm sorry, you're gonna have to stay out here, please. I'll make sure you know what's going on. I'll need to speak with Mr. Pirelli's immediate--
  Olivia: His name is Dante Falconeri, and I'm his mother.
  Sonny: I'm his father.
  [Tray crashes to floor]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Carly: What took you guys so long?
  Sam: I don't think you want to know.
  Carly: I was about to send out a search party.
  Morgan: Did you eat all the cake?
  Carly: No, but it's almost gone. You better go find some.
  Morgan: Ohh!
  Molly: I'm afraid it's my fault. Despite all of my effort, Jason and Sam are determined to remain star-crossed.
  Carly: Ohh...don't you hate when that happens?
  Molly: Uh-huh!
  Carly: Do you know what I think? I think you should enjoy the party, I think you should have tons of cake and tons of soda. I want to make sure you go home with a perfect sugar high.
  Molly: Okay.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Kristina: Isn't Dad supposed to be here?
  Michael: Yeah. I mean, you know how it is.
  Kristina: You didn't say anything to Jason about Dominic, did you? Do you still think he's an undercover cop?
  Michael: I know what I heard, but I didn't tell Jason. I told Jax, like you suggested.
  Kristina: Did he believe you?
  Michael: Yeah. And he promised to close down the case, which means Dad's not gonna get in trouble, and Dominic will be out of the picture for good.
  Kristina: I knew Jax would be able to help.
  Michael: You know, I admit it; I never expected Jax would turn out to be such a cool guy.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  [Monitor beeping]
  Sonny: What does Dante know of his father?
  P.A.: Code blue, ICU. Code blue, ICU.
  Olivia: I told him that it was a wild time in my life.
  Sonny: Yeah, see, that's the same thing you told me.
  Olivia: We broke up, and you started dating my cousin, and I wanted you to think that I didn't care.
  Sonny: Could there be another father?
  Olivia: Nobody.
  Sonny: So all this time you've been just not telling me?
  Olivia: I was protecting Dante. I was protecting Dante.
  Sonny: Well, it makes sense that we're related, because da--you know, we got along from the start, he's ambitious and he's proud of it. Morgan latched on to him.
  Steve: Okay.
  Olivia: How is he?
  Steve: Well, the bullet did major internal damage. It's lodged close to the spine.
  Olivia: Will he be paralyzed?
  Steve: It's too soon to say. I'm a trauma surgeon, Dr. Niles is an orthopedist. We'll be doing his surgery together.
  Sonny: What are his chances?
  Steve: He's lost a great deal of blood, as you know. We can't operate until he stabilizes, but we'll monitor him very, very closely.
  Sonny: You haven't said if he's gonna live, Doctor.
  Steve: Your son will get the best possible care. But the bullet went through the center of his chest. I can't make guarantees.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Lulu: Where are Dominic and Sonny? Why aren't they here?
  Jason: I don't know what's going on with Dominic, but Sonny had some business to take care of.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  [Cell phone rings]
  Robin: Hello?
  Sonny: Is Patrick with you?
  Robin: Sonny?
  Sonny: I have an emergency. I want to know if you guys can come to the hospital right away? Can you keep quiet?
  Olivia: You calling in your own surgeons?
  Sonny: Dr. Niles did--you know, she did a good job on my father, but Robin and Patrick, they do wonders. I've seen it more than once.
  Steve: I have notified police we're treating a gunshot wound. It's hospital policy. But before they get here, can either one of you tell me what happened?
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Carly: Oh, excuse me. Not so fast.
  Monica: Oh. Edward: Oh, Carly, you've, uh, you've thrown a wonderful party, but don't spoil it by forcing us to wear out our welcome.
  Carly: I just want to say thank you. I know it wasn't easy for all of you guys to show up, but I appreciate it.
  Tracy: May we go?
  Luke: Quick, before she changes her mind.
  Carly: Bye.
  Monica: Thank you.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Jax: Do you want me to give you a ride to the hotel?
  Jane: No. You sent a car. That's more than enough.
  Carly: Wait, you're not gonna stay while we open up presents?
  Jane: I'm afraid the jet lag is catching up with me.
  Carly: Then you should stay here. We have plenty of room for you.
  Jax: Oh, I'm sure Mom would be much happier at the hotel.
  Jane: He's right. Good-bye, you two.
  Jax: Bye, Mom.
  Jane: Now, you remember, no matter what happens, how much you love one another.
  Jax: Okay, Mom. Okay.
  Carly: That was a little weird. Wasn't that weird?
  Jax: She just had a little too much to drink. You know? Like everyone.
  [Jax and Carly chuckle]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Spinelli: Um...hi. Could I-- I'm sorry. Can borrow Stone Cold for a minute?
  Sam: Uh--sure.
  Jason: I haven't heard anything from Sonny.
  Spinelli: Well, are you concerned?
  Jason: He'll call if he needs anything.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  [Elevator bell rings]
  Robin: Sonny?
  Sonny: Hey.
  Robin: Hey.
  Sonny: Okay, I know you saved Michael's life. Now you need to save my son's. He got shot, and they just took him to the emergency surgery.
  Robin: We just saw Morgan. He was at Jax's. He's fine.
  Sonny: No, no. Dominic Pirelli, his real name is Dante Falconeri.
  Robin: As in Olivia Falconeri.
  Sonny: She's his mother, I'm his father. I just found out. I need you both involved in, you know, my son's care. Can you do that?
  Patrick: We can do it. We'll do everything we can.
  Sonny: Great. Thank you.
  Robin: Wow. I knew Sonny and Olivia were friends in Bensonhurst, but I... you're acting like you're not surprised.
  Patrick: I knew.
  Robin: You knew? You knew Dominic and Dante were--
  Patrick: I overheard a conversation. Olivia...she asked me not to say anything and she confirmed it.
  Robin: Well, that kind of information isn't covered by medical privilege. You are my husband and Sonny's one of my best friends. Why didn't you tell me?
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Carly: My little girl's sound asleep while we're opening up all her presents. Oh, Molly, this is beautiful.
  Molly: I wanted to get a little sundress with pink flamingoes on it, but Mom said we have to be practical.
  Carly: Oh. Practical's good. But, you know, I think it's really important for little girls to have a sundress with pink flamingoes on it. So we should go shopping, shouldn't we?
  Kristina: Oh, that'll be fun.
  Carly: Yeah, your mom will love it.
  Molly: Kristina's gotten very into shopping lately.
  Carly: Ooh!
  Morgan: What about this one? It has no name on it.
  Carly: Ohh, we'd better open that one, hadn't we?
  [Overlapping conversation]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Jason: Do you think we can leave now?
  Sam: You're the godfather. You have to stay. You have to.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Michael: Just rip it open.
  Kristina: Just rip it off.
  Carly: Ooh! It's a DVD. Hmm. [Laughs]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  [Indistinct P.A. Announcement]
  Olivia: Hi. Oh, I am so proud of you, honey. You are doing so good. You've been so strong. You've made it this far. You are gonna make it all the way. Okay? You're gonna get through that surgery. Honey, you are gonna be just...Fine. My beautiful boy. You are everything that I ever prayed for. Everything. And you need to know... you need to know that any lie that I told, anything that I did, that is on me, honey, that's not you. You can't let that hold you back. You need-- you need to live your life. Every minute. Every minute, honey, to the fullest. And don't make the same mistakes that your father made, okay? This life, uh, this life we're living is not about money and power and revenge. It's about... It's about kids. And baseball games. And being able to look at yourself in the mirror. But you can do that, honey. You are that man, the man that I raised you to be.
  Dante: Ma...
  Olivia: Yeah, honey, I'm right here, honey. What do you need? Can you hear me?
  Dante: Tell... tell Lulu...
  Olivia: Yeah?
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sonny: Our Father... that's what you are, Holy Father who forgives us, protects us, loves us. I'm a father, too, and I love my kids more than anything in the whole world. And I try my... I try my best to do right by them. No, no, no. That's a lie, Father. It's not right to kill. To point a gun... to pull the trigger on someone who saved your life. A brave man, a good man, who turns out to be your son. This is not an accident. It's your judgment on me... for the life that I chose to live... that I would try to kill my own son.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Olivia: Okay. Honey, the doctors are coming soon, and they said that the bullet is lodged close to your spine. And I'm not saying that to scare you, I just think, um, I think you need to know what you're up against. Because I know you. You are a fighter, and the tougher things get, the greater you shine. I am so proud and so honored to be your mother.
  P.A.: Dr. Brown to cardiology. Dr. Brown to cardiology.
  Sonny: Any change?
  Olivia: He woke up for about a split second. He asked for Lulu.
  Steve: Ahem. I have a couple of questions about your son's medical history.
  Olivia: Okay.
  Sonny: Oh, boy. [Sighs] You know that connection you hear about between father and son, I don't know, maybe we... we had it all along. We think alike. You speak your mind, you're not afraid to make a mistake. I respect your stubbornness. How you handle yourself. You did what you had to do. Your job was to... Dismantle my organization, and I... I just about...turned the whole damn thing over to you. That's what I call amazing work. I don't know, I still can't believe you're my son.

  Carly: Guess we'll watch this later.
  Morgan: Don't you want to see what's on it?
  Carly: I know what's on it. It's probably pictures from Jax's mom of when Jax was a baby or the Quartermaines when Michael was a baby.
  Morgan: Ooh, now we really want to see it. Please?
  Carly: Later. We're going to watch that later. Okay? All right, what's next? People don't wrap anymore. Look at that. So cute. Look at that.
  [Conversation continues]

  Molly: We shouldn't be doing this, Morgan.
  Morgan: Mom won't care.
  Molly: She asked us to wait.
  Morgan: Fine. Okay, we waited.
  Molly: Oh, come on. You know that's not what she meant.
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sam: What Molly said at the church, I know it was a little out of line, and if you think--
  Jason: Why was it out of line?
  Sam: Well...
  Jason: I love you.
  Franco: [on DVD] I always knew I was different. I felt nothing. People would laugh or cry. I never understood why. I taught myself to mimic them. I passed for ordinary. I was 18 when I went to prison for a crime I didn't commit. I learned a lot.

  [Cell phone rings]
  [Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring]
  Lulu: No.
  [Ring]
  [SCENE_BREAK]
  Sonny: It's all right. Hey, I'm not--I'm not gonna hurt you. It was all a mistake. I'm--I'm your father.
