Zander: Mac, you got nothing to hold me on except for the words from my soon-to-be ex-wife. Why don't you take off the cuffs and let me go?
Mac: Relax, Zander. You know the drill.
Elizabeth: Zander, what's going on?
Zander: Emily had me arrested.
Elizabeth: There has to be some mistake.
Zander: Nope. No mistake. She clubbed me over the head and had the cops take me away.
Elizabeth: Just a minute. Hey, Ric, do you think you could do me a favor? Could you sort this out? There's got to be a mix-up.
Ric: Yeah. Yeah, sure.
Elizabeth: Thanks.
Ric: Officer, take Mr. Smith into Interrogation One. This -- this could take a while so I’ll call you when I know something.
Elizabeth: Okay, thanks.
Emily: Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: Hey.
Emily: Hey. Is Zander here yet?
Elizabeth: Yeah, they just brought him in. He said you had him arrested.
Emily: Yeah, I did, I did.
Elizabeth: Emily, why?
Emily: Take your pick. He's working for Faith Rosco, he beat up Nikolas, and if he's not locked up, he's going to get himself killed.
Elizabeth: Okay, I better go talk to Ric.
Emily: Ric?
Elizabeth: I just told him to help Zander.
Emily: And Ric agreed? He doesn't care you slept with Zander?
Elizabeth: Emily, he doesn't know.
Emily: Hey.
Elizabeth: Hey. Ric says they're processing Zander’s paperwork and they just need you to give a statement and sign it.
Emily: All right, okay.
Elizabeth: You're feeling guilty right now, emotional. That is the wrong time to be making decisions about anything.
Emily: Are we talking about me or you here?
Elizabeth: All right, both of us. But, Emily, listen to me, every day I brace myself to see Ric and tell him that I slept with Zander, and every day I don't do it because I don't want to. I'm stuck. I can't go forward. I can't go back. Don't do this to yourself. You can't save Zander by pressing charges.
Emily: Elizabeth, the alternative is Zander dies and even though I'll never ask and he'll never say it, I'll spend the rest of my life thinking Jason killed him.
Zander: Hey, what's up? You here for old times' sake? Feeling a little nostalgic with the cuffs on?
Emily: Look, I gave my statement and all I have to do is sign it, Zander.
Zander: Well, go ahead, do it.
Emily: I don't want to lock you up.
Zander: Oh, sure you do. Afraid I’m going to hurt your prince? Huh? Is that what it is? Well, you know what, I'd do it again too. Because you know why, it's my job and I love it.
Emily: Oh, great, yeah. You're going to show me. You're going to show me, aren't you, Zander? You're going to die and then I’ll be sorry. And you know what, You're right, I will be. I'll be sorry for the future you threw away!
Zander: That's right.
Emily:I'll be sorry for how you wasted your life!
Zander: That's it. Now you're going to tell me that you had me arrested to save my life. No, Emily, you feel guilty and this is the way you can do it and have me arrested and go away and not feel worse.
Emily: You know what? I made the mistake of thinking that I could save you and you made the mistake of believing it. We were both wrong. It's up to you to save yourself.
Emily: Zander, I care about what happens to you and I'll be sorry if you die, but I won't give you my life, Zander. I won't feel guilty for loving Nikolas. You are not punishing me!
Zander: Okay, Emily --
Emily:You're punishing yourself!
Zander: Let me make this very clear to you. Nothing I am doing is because of you. You don't matter to me at all.
Emily: All right, well, then prove it. Get away from Faith Rosco, find something that matters to you and move on, Zander!
Mac: Emily, your statement's ready. As soon as you sign it, Zander’s free to go.
Emily: What are you -- okay, what are you talking about, Mac? I don't understand. What are you saying?
Mac: Faith Rosco posted his bail.
Emily: I only locked him up to keep him safe.
Zander: Sign the statement and get out of here.
Mac: He walks either way.
Emily: All right, you know what? This was my last try at saving you. You're on your own now. I'm withdrawing my statement. Go ahead, let him go.
