Emily: What happened?
Connor: Nothing, nothing. Don't worry about it.
Emily: You just blew up, Connor. You threw that plate.
Connor: Just let it go, Emily!
Emily: Well, I can't! You're out of control.
Dillon: Hey, skye. I was kind of hoping you'd come by. Have you talked to Luke?
Skye: He hasn't found Helena yet.
Dillon: Okay, well, I've been dodging Alan and Monica's questions, and they're getting harder. They're really worried about Emily.
Skye: All right, listen, I'll talk to Alan, okay? We just need to give Luke more time.
Dillon: Skye? I'm worried, too.
Skye: Yeah, well, Emily's with Connor. As long as he's with her, Emily should be safe.
Emily: I can't blame you for being frustrated. Ever since you got back from the war, your whole life has been turned upside down.
Connor: And there ain't nothing I can do about that.
Emily: You're on overload, Connor. Your wife died, you were on the run, and then I asked you to impersonate Nikolas to lure Helena out of hiding.
Connor: I chose to help you.
Emily: Okay, no, you chose to go to Canada to start a new life. I'm the one who dragged you all the way back here, got you involved in this whole painful mess. It was selfish.
Connor: Emily, Emily, I wanted to help you. I still do, but you need to start being realistic here.
Emily: What do you mean?
Connor: Nikolas is in prison. We haven't been able to get him out.
Emily: He's going to be exonerated. Helena's alive, and once the police see that, then Nikolas is going to be released.
Connor: He may not be around long enough to get cleared. You know what I'm saying?
Emily: I don't even want to think about Nikolas being hurt in prison.
Connor: Hurt? He could get killed. And then what are you going to do? You going to stay faithful to a ghost, or are you going to move on with who's right in front of you?
Emily: If the worst happened and Nikolas died, I would mourn him and I would move on someday, but not with you.
Connor: You may think that now, you know, but --
Emily: No, Connor, I know it. Just because you look like Nikolas doesn't mean i'm ever going to love you.
Connor: But we're the same, you know? I mean, you taught me to be Nikolas. I even fooled his grandmother.
Emily: You're playing a role.
Connor: So I know how I feel.
Emily: And so do I. And I'm not in love with you. When i look at you, I don't feel anything. When I think about Nikolas, I can almost feel his heart beating against mine. I miss the way he holds me. There's no substitute for that. I don't want to replace it, not ever.
Connor: You're right, I'm sorry. I -- I guess just the pressure of all this is getting to me, you know? Just hiding out, waiting for Helena to find us. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
Emily: Oh, God. Skye. Is there any news about Nikolas?
Skye: Is everything okay here?
Connor: Yeah, yeah. We were hoping for some good news.
Emily: Has Luke found Helena?
Skye: No, not yet, but he has a lead.
Connor: Good.
Emily: Can you give us any details? Is she in the United States?
Skye: Uh, Connor, do you think that you could get me something hot to drink? I could really go for that.
Connor: Sure.
Skye: Emily, are you okay?
Emily: Yeah, we both just want to get out of here as soon as possible.
Skye: Yeah. The family's really starting to worry about you.
Emily: Oh, what have you told them?
Skye: Well, not much. They know you're safe. And poor Dillon is covering like crazy for you.
Emily: Oh, God, I can't thank you guys enough.
Skye: Oh, Emily, please, how could I not help you? I haven't seen true love many times in my life, and you and Nikolas --
Emily: The real thing, huh?
Skye: Yeah. That is why we have to catch Helena. You two deserve to spend a long, happy life together.
Emily: And we will. This is all going to be over soon.
Skye: Well, you know, Connor must be pretty upsetting, though. I mean, he looks exactly like Nikolas.
Emily: Oh, no, no, no, Connor and Nikolas couldn't be less alike.
Skye: Yeah. He seems kind of volatile.
Emily: Yeah, I don't know.
Skye: Emily, you don't feel safe around Connor, do you?
Emily: If it's a choice between getting stuck with Helena or Connor, I'd choose Connor any day.
Skye: That's not very encouraging. Helena's a homicidal maniac.
Emily: Listen, Nikolas is her weakness, and she's not sure who Connor is right now, so it's going to buy us some time.
Skye: Emily, tell me the truth -- is Connor making you feel uncomfortable?
Emily: Uh, you know, we've had some awkward moments.
Skye: Oh, okay, that's it. We're getting you out of here and we're going to hide you guys separately.
Emily: No, wait, Skye, I appreciate your being protective, but I'm okay.
Skye: I wish I believed you.
Emily: Listen, the situation has been hard on all of us. You know, Connor's still grieving for his wife and he's given up his whole identity to impersonate Nikolas. I mean, sometimes he gets frustrated, but how can you blame him?
Skye: So you're just going to grin and bear it?
Emily: Listen, to bring Nikolas back, I'd do just about anything.
Skye: Well, what should I tell the family in the meantime?
Emily: Just tell them that I love them and that i'm trying to prove Nikolas' innocence and tell them that I'm safe and that I'm going to be home soon.
Skye: Okay. Well, until you are, I have something that should make you very happy.
Emily: What?
Skye: This just arrived today.
Emily: Oh, it's from Nikolas.
Nikolas' Voice: "Emily, I can't stop thinking about you and the times we shared together. I remember the time we made love in front of the fire and promised we'd always come back to each other. Then later we ate strawberries dipped in champagne. It was heaven. I can feel you in my arms right now and smell the rose petals in your hair. I miss you so much, Emily. But we're together in these memories, so I hold on to them. Remember with me, Emily."
Connor: Skye leave yet?
Emily: Yes.
Connor: I figured you'd go with her.
Emily: Well, I have to stay here until Luke finds Helena.
Connor: So that means you're stuck with me?
Emily: Listen, I know it's difficult, but what Nikolas is going through is a million times worse. So, I'm going to go rest.
Emily: The strawberries are so sweet.
Connor: I'm glad you like them.
Emily: I like everything about tonight. Make love to me, Connor.
Skye: Listen, all I can tell you is that Emily is safe and that she doesn't want you to worry about her.
Monica: Well, that's easy for you to say.
Alan: Look, Skye, I know that you mean well, but Monica and I would feel better if we spoke to Emily ourselves.
Monica: I mean, she's pregnant. She should be taking care of herself.
Skye: I'm sorry, Monica. Emily's not really pregnant.
Monica: What?
Skye: She was just using it as a lure to get Helena out of hiding.
Alan: Helena's dead.
Skye: No, Helena's alive, and she was at the house the other night. Luke almost captured her.
Alan: How the hell did Luke get involved in this?
Monica: Did Helena try to hurt Emily?
Skye: She didn't have the chance. Now, listen, I know this is hard, but this is the way that Emily wants it.
Monica: Wait a minute. Does anyone else know that Helena is alive?
Skye: No, we're keeping it very quiet until Luke closes in on her.
Monica: Excuse me, but do you expect me to trust my daughter's safety to Luke spencer? She should be under police protection. Her life is in danger!
