Emily: Luke wanted to tell you and lucky together, but I -- I talked him out of it because I didn't want to add another piece of awful news. And then i realized I was -- that I was being unfair. I'm so sorry, Nikolas, but Laura's dead. I can hardly believe it myself, you know? Despite her illness and the way she disappeared, I always wanted to believe that your mom was going to come home safe.
Connor: God.
Nikolas: So you smuggled me out of the hospital and left Connor in my place?
Lucky: He'll be on his way to Pentonville by morning.
Nikolas: Oh, no. Lucky, we have to stop this. Connor's crazy. We can't trust him. We got to get out of here.
Lucky: Listen -- [Nikolas groans]
Lucky: You can't do this. We don't have a choice. You let Connor do this, or you're going to spend the rest of your life in prison.
Nikolas: Trusting Connor is not an option. It'll only make things worse.
Lucky: Nikolas, listen to me, he had his scar removed. He even dyed his hair. He's got identical tattoos like you.
Nikolas: Lucky, he's not going to stay in prison. Come on. First chance he gets, he'll give up his true identity, the police will come after me, and then emily gets in trouble.
Lucky: You will both be long gone. You and Emily can start a new life anywhere you want.
Nikolas: Connor -- Connor wants me to suffer for Mary. It's a trap.
Lucky: Nikolas, then connor is an idiot. He's made himself an accomplice.
Nikolas: I don't want any part of it.
Lucky: We're talking about Emily's happiness, too. I'm not going to let you sacrifice that, so -- listen, I'm going to go back to the city and get Emily, okay?
Nikolas: Then I'm going with you.
Lucky: Just -- you stay. You're not strong enough to fight me, Nikolas, so I want you to focus on getting well, okay? When Emily and I get back, we can decide what to do next.
Emily: Laura was trapped in a fire, and i'm not even sure she knew what was happening. You know, maybe she didn't feel fear anymore.
Connor: Yeah, because of her illness.
Emily: Yeah, yeah, after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, she just started slipping away.
Connor: Maybe you're right. She didn't -- you know, she didn't really feel anything.
Emily: Laura Spencer wasn't your mother, Connor. What, do you -- do you think that I wouldn't even know my husband? Nikolas has this beautiful, amazing spirit, and --
Connor: Emily -- Emily, I get that you're worried, all right, but Nikolas is fine. He's with Lucky.
Emily: You expect me to believe that Lucky helped you with this?
Connor: Yeah, he cares a lot about you. So do I.
Emily: I don't trust you. I know that this is just about getting revenge for what happened to Mary.
Connor: Well, if you really feel that way, go ahead and call the cops. Turn me in, but you're sending your husband right to prison.
Doctor: You're healing well, but it's too soon to transfer you to the Pentonville infirmary. So I'm going to recommend we keep you here a few more days.
Connor: Thank you.
Emily: Hmm. Yeah, I have to admit you're thorough. How'd you give yourself an injury just like Nikolas'?
Connor: You sure you want the details?
Emily: No, probably not.
Connor: The point is it worked, all right? If I could fool Nikolas' doctor, I'm sure I could pass for him in prison.
Emily: Nikolas' doctor doesn't really know him.
Connor: Neither does anyone in Pentonville. You didn't say anything to the doc. Does that mean you're going along with the plan?
Emily: Look, Lucky helped you set this up, and I don't want to get him thrown off the police force. That's why I didn't tell the doctor the truth.
Connor: I'm just trying to make up for all the things I did wrong, all right? Why can't you believe that? Huh? You think I want to spend the next few years of my life in prison? No. I have made a lot of mistakes, I know that. It cost me my job, my wife, and now I'm alone. Damn. And helping you and Nikolas feels right. Maybe it'll make up for some of the pain mary and i caused. Will you just let me do this, please?
Lucky: How you feeling?
Emily: Oh, Connor's fine.
Lucky: I figured you'd be onto us by now.
Emily: This is insane, Lucky. You had no right to make this choice for me and Nikolas.
Lucky: You're my oldest friend and Nikolas is my brother. I just wanted the two of you to be happy.
Emily: This isn't the answer.
Lucky: You may not like what Connor and I did, but at least you and Nikolas have a chance. So don't waste it by being too proud to accept help.
Connor: You should listen to him.
Emily: Okay, where's Nikolas now?
Lucky: He's in a cabin resting.
Emily: Alone?
Lucky: He's resting, all right? He is in the mountains and, listen, I came here to take you to him.
Emily: All right, let -- let's go.
Lucky: Okay, wait. You know what? I got to call my dad first because he left me a message and he sounded upset.
Emily: Yeah, you should go to him.
Lucky: I need to take you to Nikolas first, though.
Emily: Well, the police think that he's here, so just go -- go deal with Luke and, you know, we'll -- we'll get Nikolas later.
Lucky: Okay. All right.
Emily: Oh, God -- Nikolas. Nikolas -- Nikolas, please! Nikolas, wake up! Nikolas, wake up, wake up, please! Please! Oh, God. Help!
Nikolas: Emily? Emily?
Emily: We're in a cabin in the mountains.
Nikolas: Connor -- Connor -- Lucky brought me -- Lucky brought me here, left Connor in my place.
Emily: I know. I drove up in the storm, and you were passed out in the doorway and you were covered in snow and you were freezing.
Nikolas: I found some car keys. I wanted to stop Lucky, I wanted to stop Lucky.
Emily: Well, I'm glad you didn't.
Nikolas: Emily, this plan won't work.
Emily: Listen, I thought so, too. But, Nikolas, life is so short, and the love we have is a gift, and --
Nikolas: Yeah, you know I love you, but we can't do this.
Emily: And I love you, too, and that's why I want you to run away with me.
Nikolas: What? Why now?
Emily: I've realized that no one has forever.
Nikolas: What do you mean, "no one"?
Emily: Nikolas, you need to know. Your mother's dead.
Nikolas: What? What?
