Emily: You have so much to live for, Nikolas. There's -- there's so much ahead of us -- the life you planned and the children we'll have.
Monitor beeps rapidly.
Nurse: He's arresting. He's in V-fib.
Emily: I understand why you ran. Facing a lifetime of prison, you must've felt that -- that our future was gone. But it's not going to be that way. Because the love we share is too strong to be denied, Nikolas, and as -- as long as we're alive, you and I are going to be together. I'll always be with you, and you'll be with me.
Monitor flatlines.
Nurse: Charged.
Doctor: Clear.
Nurse: He's still in V-fib!
Doctor: We're losing him. Give it to me again. Come on!
Nurse: Charged.
Doctor: Clear.
Nurse: No change.
Doctor: One more time. Come on, man.
Nurse: Charged.
Doctor: Clear.
Emily's Voice: I love you, Nikolas. Always.
Emily: Connor, what are you doing here?
Emily: Nikolas tried to run to freedom and got shot by a policeman, and now he's lying in the emergency room in critical condition.
Connor: I'm sorry.
Emily: Spare me the phony sympathy, Connor.
Connor: I didn't know he got shot, all right?
Emily: So why'd you come here?
Connor: Because I heard on the news that he got life in prison --
Emily: And you're here to gloat?
Connor: No!
Emily: Get out. You have done your damage, you've gotten your revenge, and I hope you choke on it.
Connor: Listen to me; I'm here to help you, Emily.
Emily: You're here -- you've already helped enough. Nikolas has got a life sentence because of you. You wanted us to pay for Mary’s death and we are.
Connor: I have a plan if you just --
Emily: Look, get out of this hospital, and get out of Port Charles. I don't want you anywhere near my husband.
Connor: Would you listen to me for a --
Emily: Get out! I hate you. You've ruined our lives. Oh, God. Oh. Oh, dear God, please hear my prayer.
Monitor beeps.
Emily: Please give Nikolas the strength to hear it, too. Fill him with faith and -- and hope. And let him feel my love, and remind him that life is good and he can't give up. His love saved me in the past. Now, dear God, let mine save him.
Doctor: We're taking him to surgery.
Monica: Yeah, is he stable?
Doctor: No, but we can't wait any longer. We're going to try and save him, but it doesn't look good.
Monica: Oh, Em --
Emily: Mom? Hi.
Monica: I came as soon as I got the message. I'm so sorry.
Emily: Nikolas is in the E.R. I have to get to him --
Monica: No, no, he's not. They moved him to O.R.
Emily: What, they got him stabilized?
Monica: Well, they couldn't wait. They had to take him to surgery.
Emily: What happened?
Monica: Well, he had to be revived.
Emily: You mean his -- his heart stopped? What -- what did the doctor say? Is he going to be all right?
Monica: The doctor said he has a chance, okay?
Coleman: Connor Bishop, right? I thought you were long gone, man.
Connor: I was. Now I'm back.
Coleman: What, you didn't want to miss out on our scenic snowstorm?
Connor: My business ain't done here yet.
Lucky: Hey, Coleman, I got a call from one of your neighbors about a noise complaint. What the hell are you doing back in town?
Connor: I heard about Nikolas' sentencing.
Lucky: Oh.
Connor: I thought I could help.
Lucky: So it's not enough that you just come over here and raise a glass to celebrate? It's not bad enough that you ruined the lives of my brother and his wife? You just thought -- hey, you know what? You just had to come back and have one last laugh.
Connor: I'm here to help, Lucky.
Lucky: It's too late. If you even think about stalking Emily just because Nikolas is gone, you better think damn well again.
Connor: Whoa -- he didn't make it?
Lucky: What are you talking about?
Connor: I just saw Emily. She said Nikolas tried to escape and he got shot.
Doctor: Stay ahead four units.
Nurse: Do you want the cell saver brought up?
Doctor: Absolutely. We're going to need it.
Doctor: What do you think you're doing?
Emily: I'm going to hold Nikolas' hand and talk him through the surgery.
Doctor: No one but the surgical team is allowed in.
Emily: Look, Nikolas and I have a special connection. He needs to hear my voice. It's going to help him get through the surgery.
Doctor: I'm sorry, it's impossible. All you can do now for your husband is pray.
Monica: Em? Emily, Emily, it's all right. It's going to be all right. It's going to be all right.
Monica: Em, the surgery could take quite a while.
Emily: Mom --
Monica: Why don't we sit in the lounge? Come on, sweetheart.
Emily: I can't leave him.
Monica: You can't do anything for him right now.
Emily: Listen, he needs me close by. He can feel my presence, mom. Mom, I’m sure of it. He did the same for me that night in the hospital when everyone thought that I was going to die. You and dad, Zander, Elizabeth, Lucky, Jason -- you all -- you all gathered around to say goodbye.
Monica: Yes. We all felt very helpless.
Emily: You thought that when I closed my eyes it was going to be for the very last time. But I fell asleep and I dreamed of Nikolas, and he was in the very next room, mom, dreaming of me, and it -- it was his love that brought me back from the brink of death.
Monica: Now you want to do the same for him.
Emily: I felt his presence when I was praying for him in the chapel, mom, and I'm sure he heard me willing him to survive, and I just need to stay here and will his heart to keep beating.
Nikolas: I have to go now.
Emily: You can't leave.
Nikolas: You have years ahead of you. I want you to have a good life.
Emily: But we belong together.
Nikolas: I'll be waiting for you on the other side.
Emily: No, Nikolas, I won't let you.
Doctor: B.P.?
Nurse: 130/80 and holding.
Lucky: Hey. How's Nikolas?
Monica: Oh, we don't know. They're just finishing the operation.
Doctor: We've done everything humanly possible.
Nurse: What's his prognosis, doctor?
Doctor: Wait until he's settled in I.C.U.
Emily: How did the surgery go?
Doctor: We did our best to repair internal damage --
Emily: Okay?
Doctor: But there's no guarantee.
Lucky: What do you mean, there's no guarantee?
Doctor: Are there other relatives who might want to be contacted?
Emily: What? Are -- are you saying that he's dying?
Doctor: There's always hope. I've seen miracles before. Your husband needs one tonight.
Emily: The doctor said one visitor at a time.
Lucky: You should be first, Emily. You're the voice he needs to hear. You're the person that's got to give him strength and the will to survive.
Emily: Nikolas? The doctors say that you need a miracle, but you already have one. Our love is a miracle. We belong together. Our souls are connected. And some day many years from now, you and I are going to be together in heaven. But it's way too soon for you to leave me now. Nikolas, I need to share a lifetime with you, and you need me, too. You wouldn't let go of me when I was sick, and I have no intention of letting you go now. Nikolas, come back to me. Just hear my voice, Nikolas. Come back to me, please. Hey, baby. Hey. Welcome back.
Connor: I need the laser surgery before the holidays.
Doctor: I'm sorry, my schedule is full.
Connor: This can't wait.
Doctor: Look, I have openings in January.
Connor: This can't wait.
Doctor: You've lived with the scar for years. What difference will a few more weeks make?
Connor: It's personal. This needs to happen now.
