Connor Bishop is also played by Tyler Christopher, who plays Nikolas Cassadine.

Emily: You know, I'm grateful for this storm. It's like our own security blanket keeping us safe from the world.

Nikolas: Not for very long. We're living on borrowed time here. You know that.

Emily: Nikolas, can't we just take whatever time we have and pretend that it's always going to be this way?

Nikolas: There's one thing I'll never have to pretend. No matter what happens, you'll be in my heart forever, I promise, okay?


Emily: Oh, my God, thank God it's you. A patrolman was here earlier and I was afraid that he recognized Nikolas and come back.

Lucky: He did recognize Nikolas. Fortunately, I was the first person he told. I told him I'd handle it, so listen, we don't have a lot of time. If we plan on making any kind of move, we need to do it now, all right? Elizabeth and I, we're willing to do whatever. But, Nikolas, there's something I need to tell you first.

Nikolas: If it's about our mother, Emily already told me.

Lucky: Nikolas, she's gone.

Nikolas: I know. I'm not ready to accept it. But if it is true, then we have to believe that she's in a better place.

Elizabeth: You guys, the storm's starting to let up. Now, all of this doesn't have to be for nothing. All we have to do is just get you guys the last dozen miles to the Canadian border.

Nikolas: The only place that I am going is back to Port Charles, okay, and I don't want any of you trying to change my mind. I have to turn myself in.


Nikolas: We'd always be looking over our shoulders. You know, we couldn't have friends, we, you know, couldn't have any kind of normal life. I don't want that for you. That's why I have to turn myself in.

Elizabeth: Emily? Do you agree with this?

Emily: No, but I know the look in his eyes, and he's made up his mind, so I'm going to try to respect his decision.

Nikolas: I love you.

Emily: I hate this. I hate every minute of it.

Elizabeth: It's going to work out for the best. I don't know how, but we just got to hold on to hope, right?

Nikolas: I'm ready. Are you?

Lucky: If you're sure, Nikolas.

Officer: Nikolas Cassadine, the place is surrounded. Come out with your hands up and nobody gets hurt.


Officer Martin: Emily, wait. There's no contact with the prisoner.

Emily: He's my husband.

Officer Martin: I got my orders. Mr. Cassadine is going into solitary until we transfer him to Pentonville.

Emily: This is a mistake. Nikolas was going to turn himself in.

Mac: It didn't appear that way to the officers I had sent up to that little mountain retreat of yours.

Lucky: It's the truth, Mac.

Mac: Sorry, Lucky, but your reassurances don't mean much these days. Nikolas doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. None of you do. In fact, you're all in a world of trouble.


Emily: Mac, why won't you do something?

Mac: What do you want from me, Emily?

Emily: Nikolas was planning on turning himself in. Doesn't he get any credit for that?

Mac: Well, if that's true, why did he leave the hospital in the first place?

Lucky: He didn't.

Mac: Right, it was all Connor Bishop, right? When in doubt, blame Connor? Do you honestly expect me to believe that Connor orchestrated this whole thing? That he didn't get assistance from Nikolas' wife or his best friend who conveniently happens to be a nurse? Or his brother, the cop? Make that ex-cop.

Elizabeth: Mac, no.

Mac: I want your badge and your gun. You are suspended indefinitely. And be prepared to face criminal charges if proof shows up that aided and abetted.

Luke: Hey, cut the boy some slack, bubba. He's got a lot on his mind.

Lucky: I know about mom.

Luke: No, son, I'm afraid you don't.


Nikolas: I'm sorry. I feel terrible about your suspension. I'm sorry.

Lucky: I knew there was a chance something like this might happen.

Nikolas: You're not going to fight it?

Lucky: No. No. I did what I had to do. I'd do it again.

Nikolas: Well, one bright spot in all this is our mother's still alive and I was around to hear about it. What about Luke? You think he'll be okay?

Lucky: I think so. I saw something, like acceptance in his eyes, you know, for the first time.

Nikolas: Yeah.

Lucky: I'd like to say I get what Bobbie was doing, but --

Nikolas: Yeah, I know. She wanted to -- she wanted to free someone she loved rather than watch them stay tied to a dream that's never going to come true, I suppose. I don't necessarily agree with her methods, but I understand the impulse.


Emily: Alexis is working on the appeal, Nikolas, and something tells me we're going to win. Hey, you just have to promise me that you're not going to give up hope again.

Nikolas: Emily, the only promise I can make to you is that I'll love you no matter where I am.

Officer Murphy: Time's up.

Emily: Wait, so soon?

Officer Murphy: You weren't supposed to be here at all, so please don't give me a hard time.

Nikolas: I love you.

Emily: I'll see you soon, okay?

Nikolas: Okay.

Mouths words.
