Lucky: I know it's been a night of hell for you, but it might not be over. You need to prepare yourself for the worst.
Emily: Okay, just tell me.
Lucky: The river is about 100 yards away and it's in flood. If Nikolas fell in, he could've drowned.
Emily: All right, that's impossible, all right? You know Nikolas. He's strong.
Lucky: Emily --
Emily: He's out there somewhere. He's probably hurt, just like in the fire. He's not thinking clearly, or he wouldn't have wandered away. We have to find him.
Nikolas: Who are you?
Mary: I'm your wife.
Nikolas: My wife?
Mary: You don't remember?
Nikolas: Not even my name.
Mary: I'm Mary, and you're my husband, Connor Bishop.
Lucky: I've got two teams fanning out from where Nikolas Cassadine’s car was found. I need one of your helicopters down here at the river doing a sweep of the bank, the river -- everything, now.
Emily: Okay, the car's almost completely destroyed. Nikolas couldn't have gone far.
Lucky: Okay, we got a river about 100 yards away from here.
Emily: Okay, let's get some tracking dogs.
Lucky: They're already on the way. I got every man available coming.
Emily: Okay, well, every second matters. I'm not waiting here.
Lucky: Emily --
Emily: Okay, great, we've got a flashlight, first-aid kit --
Lucky: Emily --
Emily: I've got my phone. I'll call you if I find him.
Lucky: Emily, no. There's no way I'm letting you go.
Mary: You saved the lives of three men before you were injured. I could show you the medal and citation you received. You're a hero.
'Connor': Do we have children?
Mary: Not yet, but we decided on four. You thought that was a nice, round number.
'Connor': I don't remember. I don't -- I don't remember.
Mary: Don't push it. Don't push it. It'll come back.
'Connor': Please -- please, help me. Please.
Mary: Okay -- um -- okay, well -- we fell in love when I was 15 -- when I beaned you with a baseball at a picnic. You always say you started seeing stars when you met me, and you never stopped. You joined the marines right out of high school. You always said it was your dream to serve your country. We got married when I graduated, and I -- I moved with you wherever you were posted. You loved the corps, and I was so proud of you, and I tried not to be afraid. And I pretty much convinced myself that you could survive anything. Until a -- a man showed up on my doorstep and said that you had been hurt. It was like I stopped breathing.
'Connor': I'm sorry.
Mary: Doesn't matter now. You've come back to me.
Mary: It doesn't seem to be getting any worse.
'Connor': My head is killing me. How long have I been hurt?
Mary: Not long.
'Connor': If I -- if I've just been released from the hospital, how come I don't remember being there?
Mary: Oh, but -- the doctor warned me that might happen. You've been heavily medicated, and it might affect your short-term memory.
'Connor': Where are we? Is this our home?
Mary: We've been stationed all over, but this is our real home. In fact, we're about a mile away from where your father taught you how to fish.
'Connor': My father? Is he nearby?
Mary: He died a few years ago. Your mom died when you were a boy. My parents are gone, too.
'Connor': It's just us?
Mary: That's always been more than enough.
'Connor': Something about that doesn't feel right to me.
Mary: Well, I'm not saying you didn't love your parents. Oh -- you adored them. That's why this place is so important to us. It's -- it's a connection to them.
'Connor': I have to get to a doctor -- find out how long this will last.
Mary: No, the doctor sent you home to rest. They say you just need to give yourself time to heal.
'Connor': If we're married, where's my wedding ring?
Emily: Look, the more people out there searching for Nikolas, the better.
Lucky: How are you going to help Nikolas if you fall in the river or trip over something and break your leg?
Emily: I'll be careful.
Lucky: No, you're not thinking clearly. I love Nikolas, too. But if we're going to find him, we're going to do it by an organized search. You running off in the darkness getting into some kind of trouble is going to divert rescuers from locating Nikolas. Listen to me. I swear to you, we're doing everything we can possible.
Emily: Okay, Lucky. Look, I just -- I can't stand the thought that he's out there again somewhere needing me and I can't get to him.
Alexis: Emily?
Emily: They think he was dazed or in shock. He's probably collapsed somewhere.
Lucky: We have men searching. We have more coming. Listen, I'm going to go join the rescue party, okay? Can you stay here with Emily?
Alexis: Of course.
Lucky: I swear, the second we find anything, I'll let you know.
Alexis: What happened?
Emily: It could've been an accident, or it could've been Zander.
Emily: Zander wanted the police to shoot him. I tried so hard, Alexis. I tried to help Zander remember the good in him, but in the end, I don't think he could do it. He couldn't see any other -- any other way out.
Alexis: It's okay. He came very close to making a good life for himself.
Emily: Until I stopped loving him.
Alexis: You are not responsible for Zander’s choices.
Emily: He was so angry, Alexis. He kept saying that he'd done something to Nikolas, and then he claimed it was a lie, and I don't know what to believe. You know, it's possible Nikolas' accident was Zander’s doing.
Alexis: We're not going to know anything until we see an accident report. Either way, this is not your fault. None of this is your fault.
Emily: I know.
Alexis: And Nikolas will tell you that when we find him.
Emily: I just want him here with me. I want to hold him in my arms and know that he's safe.
Alexis: You have made a tremendous difference in that kid, I'm telling you. He was a serious boy. Now he laughs, he's happy. He will come back to you. I don't have faith in a lot of things, but I have faith in that.
Mary: They took your wedding ring off when you were in the hospital.
'Connor': Oh -- it's too much.
Mary: I'll get it for you, but first, you have to rest. That's what you need more than anything.
Knock on door.
Mary: Who is it?
Lucky: It's the police. I need to ask you a few questions.
Mary: What's the problem, officer?
Lucky: We're looking for a missing man.
Mary: You're the first person I've seen all night, officer.
Lucky: If you don't mind taking the chain off, I -- I could show you a picture.
Mary: Sure.
Lucky: Thank you. This -- this is a picture of the man.
Mary: Is he dangerous?
Lucky: No, no -- he was in a car accident and he wandered off. His name is Nikolas Cassadine. He's believed to have suffered a head injury, and we're afraid he might fall in the river. If you happen to see anything, please call 911.
Mary: Sure. Of course.
Lucky: Thank you.
Mary: Wait. You forgot this.
Lucky: Thank you. Sorry to disturb you this evening.
Ric: I came as soon as I heard. I wanted to see if there was anything I could do to help.
Alexis: I highly doubt that was your intention.
Ric: I beg your pardon? You can't possibly be blaming me for this.
Alexis: I think it's reasonable to blame you for everything, Ric. You did nothing but pit Nikolas and Zander against each other for your own selfish purposes. Now Zander’s dead, Nikolas is missing. Don't tell me you came here to help.
Emily: I blamed Ric, too, at first, but he couldn't have known what Zander would do.
Alexis: I find it really interesting that you happened to be at the scene when Zander died.
Ric: Look, I don't think that the only -- there's no coincidence here. I'm the district attorney. Zander was a known fugitive who probably set fire to the Port Charles hotel in order to cover up a murder. Now, one minute he says he's going to give himself up. The next, he makes an openly hostile gesture, forcing the police to open fire.
Alexis: And naturally, you gave him what he wanted.
Ric: Yeah, as I said, I was doing my job. Now, the district attorney's office is trying to pick up the slack while the police commissioner is badly injured. You may dislike me, Ms. Davis, but it is still also my job to supervise the search for your nephew.
Emily: They said they were bringing in tracking dogs.
Ric: Yeah, they're on their way. They're going to do everything that's possible, but I think you need to be realistic about this. Judging the condition of the car, Nikolas is probably pretty badly injured. And if he did make it to the river, it's possible he fell in. I just want you to be prepared that Nikolas may be dead.
Emily: Ric, don't you dare say that!
'Connor': Is that my ring?
Mary: It is, but --
'Connor': Let me see it.
'Connor': It's a little loose.
Mary: You've lost some weight since you were injured. Does seeing it jog any memories?
'Connor': I wish it did.
Mary: I remember putting it on your finger. I was so nervous. I was shaking, but you were perfectly steady. You said it felt like it had always been there.
'Connor': I -- I don't -- I wish that I could feel what you're describing to me. I wish I -- I could feel something. I wish I could feel anything, but I can’t. I can’t. I can’t.
Mary: No it -- don't be -- don't be sorry. It must be frustrating not having any sense of who you are, where you came from.
'Connor': It can't be easy for you, either.
Mary: I'm only doing what you'd do for me. We meant what we said in our wedding vows. "In sickness and in health." Now, will you please get back into bed?
'Connor': No, I'm okay, I'm okay. I heard the door close. Where'd you go?
Mary: Out for a walk.
'Connor': What? That doesn't make any sense. I'm hurt. I can't even remember who I am. Why -- why would you leave me? Is there something else going on?
Lucky: Nikolas? Nikolas? Nikolas? Nikolas? Nikolas? Nikolas?
Emily: Did you find something?
Lucky: Emily, what are -- what are you doing here?
Emily: It's Nikolas'. Where'd you find it?
Lucky: I found it by the river.
Emily: Oh, wait -- it's wet. He's in the river!
Lucky: Emily -- Emily!
Emily: No, wait. He's in the water!
Lucky: You can't go.
Emily: I have to get to him! Let me go!
Lucky: No, you can't go in there.
Emily: Wait, I have to go -- Nikolas! Nikolas!
Mary: I was worried about you. We don't have phone service yet, and -- I went to the call box to call your doctor, but it was broken.
'Connor': I thought you said I didn't need to see a doctor.
Mary: I thought I should check in with him.
'Connor': In the middle of the night? That doesn't make any sense.
Mary: You're confused because of the injury.
'Connor': I'm hurt. Why would you bring me into a place with no phone?
Mary: I just haven't had it turned on yet.
'Connor': Yeah -- how long have we been here?
Mary: Not long.
'Connor': I don't -- I don't know you, okay? I don't know you. I don't -- I don't remember knowing you. But I can tell something's wrong. And whatever it is, you have to tell me right now.
Mary: I'm sorry. I've been lying to you about everything.
