Connor Bishop is also played by Tyler Christopher, who plays Nikolas Cassadine.
Mac: Nikolas? I'm here to ask you some more questions about your grandmother's death.
Connor: I already told you everything I know.
Mac: I'm here to question Emily.
Connor: Mm-hmm.
Emily: Hi, Mac.
Connor: Hey, Em, just in time. The Commissioner -- excuse me -- wants to know a little bit more about the night my grandmother died. I'm going to go make a call.
Emily: Mm-hmm. Hi, Mac. You already questioned me about Helena's death.
Mac: I have reason to believe someone else was on the island that night.
Emily: What does it matter? Nikolas and I saw her fall. We're the only witnesses you need. Helena's death was an accident.
Mac: Connor Bishop might say otherwise.
Emily: Connor?
Mac: I can place him here at the time Helena fell.
Emily: Look, I still don't see why it matters,Mac. Connor didn't kill Helena. She tried to pull me away from Nikolas and she fell.
Mac: There's more to the story. You see, I think you helped connor escape the hospital.
Emily: Oh, come on, why would I do that?
Mac: Maybe Connor really saw what happened to Helena. Maybe the story he's telling is different than the one you were telling.
Emily: I told you the truth. Helena Cassadine caused her own death.
Mac: If you're lying to protect Nikolas, it will only get worse for both of you.
Emily: All right, are we done?
Mac: I'll be in touch.
Emily: Yeah.
Nikolas: That was great.
Emily: Thank you for covering for us.
Connor: We made a deal. I ain't going to break it.
Nikolas: Mac's getting too suspicious. We need to move up our timeline.
Emily: What do you mean?
Nikolas: Connor has to leave for Canada tonight.
Connor: I'm not going nowhere.
Connor: I can't leave yet.
Emily: Mac is circling. He practically knows the truth.
Connor: Then he'll expect me to run. The best thing that I can do is lay low for a little while.
Nikolas: You stay here and we all go to prison.
Emily: Right, but if Mac is just waiting to catch Connor --
Nikolas: Right now -- right now, Mac's working on theory. But he'll keep digging, and when he comes back, he'll have a warrant to search this place. You can't be here when that happens so we can get rid of any evidence of you being here.
Connor: You throwing me out?
Nikolas: Connor, you were only supposed to stay until you were well enough to travel.
Emily: You know, Nikolas is right. I'll help you pack your bags.
Nikolas: I'll arrange for the helicopter. You'll be able to leave within the hour.
Emily: This is best for all of us.
Connor: You told him we kissed, didn't you?
Emily: You kissed me. There was nothing mutual about it.
Connor: Don't get so mad, all right?
Emily: Why not? You asked me to read from Mary's diary. That's what I did. I tried to help you remember the good in her, and then you took advantage of me.
Connor: It's not like I planned it, all right? It just happened.
Emily: No, as far as I'm concerned, we never have to talk about that kiss again.
Connor: Listen, all right, just let me make sure you understand something for a second. Look, Mary's the only woman that I've ever been in love with, okay? And listening to you read from her diary -- it kind of made me feel like she was still here. You know, it made me -- it made me remember the girl that I fell in love with one summer, the girl whose face would light up every time I walked into a room. So for a second, it was like -- it was like you were there to remind me of that. It was like -- it was like you were there to take her place, okay, so I kissed you.
Emily: Listen, I know that it was hard for you losing her.
Connor: Yeah. Yeah, she was my reason for living. But I made a mistake, and I apologize for that.
Emily: Okay. Look, Connor, we need to pack your bags, okay? You're going to need food, water, bandages --
Connor: But if that kiss really meant nothing to you, then why didn't you tell Nikolas about it?
Nikolas: Tell Nikolas about what?
Connor: What happened was my fault.
Nikolas: Okay.
Emily: We don't have time. I'll explain to Nikolas later.
Connor: I'd rather get it over with. Look, Emily showed me Mary's diary and I couldn't handle it, so I asked her to read it to me, and just for a second, it was like -- it was like she was right here with me, and I reached out to her and --
Nikolas: What do you mean, "reached out"?
Connor: I kissed her. She got mad and pushed me away.
Emily: It's not important.
Connor: Yeah, it is to me. And you both have been real good to me, and I took advantage of that and I apologize.
Nikolas: So you were apologizing when I walked in?
Emily: Yeah, you know, apology accepted. All that matters is getting you on a helicopter to Canada before mac shows up here with a search warrant, so you need to pack your bags.
Connor: All right. I'll be gone as soon as I can. Thank you both for your kindness.
Nikolas: You okay?
Emily: I'm fine. Thank you for understanding.
Nikolas: I realize -- I realize that you're trying to give him the benefit of the doubt because you're kind and you're forgiving, but you can't believe a word that's coming out of his mouth, Emily. He knew exactly what he was doing when he kissed you. That was for real.
Emily: When Connor kissed me, we were both wrapped up in Mary's diary.
Nikolas: He used that situation to take advantage of you, Emily.
Emily: He was upset.
Nikolas: He manipulated the entire story just now. And I know you feel sorry for him, but something about Connor Bishop's just broken, okay? We can't trust him at all.
Emily: Okay, it doesn't matter. Connor's leaving for Canada. After tonight, we never have to deal with him again.
Nikolas: I'm telling you that it's not going to be that easy. Connor Bishop isn't going anywhere without a fight.
Connor: I'm ready to go.
Nikolas: The helicopter will be setting down any minute. Then you'll be flown across the border.
Connor: Great. Then what?
Nikolas: There are keys inside, as well as instructions on how to find the car as well as your new I.D. There's also half the money that you asked for. I'll wire the rest to Canada as soon as I get confirmation that you've arrived.
Connor: Thank you. You're making this real easy for me.
Emily: Yeah, we want you to have a good life.
Connor: And I believe that. You two are decent people. I was wrong to blame you for what happened to Mary.
Nikolas: That was no one's fault.
Connor: Yeah.
Emily: So you'll keep your word and not say anything about what happened on the bluff that night?
Connor: As far as I'm concerned, Helena Cassadine died exactly the way you say she did -- by accident.
Nikolas: Have a safe travel, Connor.
Connor: Well -- all right.
Emily: Take care.
Connor: Yep. Oh, man.
Emily: Connor -- Connor, that's blood. You -- you must have reopened your wound or --
Connor: Yeah, I think I popped a stitch or something.
Emily: Okay. He's not going to be able to travel.
