Emily: Hey, I brought you a sandwich.
Nikolas: Look at the -- look at the time here. She was already at the airport before we even left the church.
Emily: Nikolas --
Nikolas: And I stood there. I stood there demanding my grandmother be arrested while Colleen got on a plane with my son.
Lucky: Hey, we're pulling a passenger list for all the women traveling with children. That should give us a good idea of where Colleen was headed.
Nikolas: She could be anywhere by now, Lucky.
Lucky: Okay, Nikolas, we're going to find her.
Nikolas: But how? I mean, she -- she could've changed planes, rented a car. We don't even know if she's in the country anymore.
Lucky: Wherever she goes, it's going to leave us a trail. All it takes is one photo like this to give us our next lead.
Emily: Thank you. All right. It's okay. Hey, Lucky's right. Colleen's going to leave a trail.
Nikolas: You spent months trying to convince me that something was off about Colleen and I just wouldn't listen to you.
Emily: Nikolas, you can't blame yourself.
Nikolas: Oh, the hell I can't. He's my son, it's my job to protect him, to keep him safe.
Emily: There's no way anyone could have predicted what Colleen was going to do.
Nikolas: No, all the signs were there right in front of me. She was possessive of Spencer, jealous of the time I spent with you. I don't know if it was pride or sheer stupidity, but for some reason I just couldn't see -- I couldn't see Colleen for the threat she was, you know? And now my son's paying for it.
Colleen: If I get this job at the daycare center, you'll be able to come to work with me every single day.
Spencer babbles.
Colleen: Yes. So when we go in there, I want you to be the cutest, most well-behaved little boy in the world. Yes. Once those daycare people see how good I am with you, they'll have no choice but to hire me. Hmm. You know, this would be a lot easier if you could just tell them how great I am at taking care of you.
Colleen chuckles.
Colleen: Then again, it's probably better that you haven't started talking yet. By the time you do, you'll have forgotten all about your father and that awful witch Emily.
Spencer coos.
Colleen: Yes. Hmm. You won't remember a time when I wasn't your mommy.
Detective Rodriguez: All right, we ran the nanny's prints through our system and they weren't on file, which means that she hasn't been arrested under the name Colleen mchenry or any other.
Lucky: That's good, that rules out any criminal history.
Emily: Well, what about the background check?
Detective Rodriguez: We were able to verify all the information she gave on her application. She was born in Connecticut, had three jobs in Manhattan, one in Philly --
Nikolas: Listen, we -- we know all this. Is there anything new, something my investigator may have missed?
Detective Rodriguez: No, not yet. Colleen had no living relatives, so we're in the process of finding and interviewing her friends.
Nikolas: What about a -- old boyfriend named Karl? She -- she spoke about him all the time. Karl?
Detective Rodriguez: There was no mention of Karl on any of her records.
Nikolas: Of course. Why would there be? She probably made him up. Who knows what else she's lied about?
Lucky: That's what we're trying to figure out, which is why we need to question you both again. Any little thing that Colleen could've mentioned in passing could help us find Spencer.
Detective Rodriguez: Nikolas, you first.
Emily: This is all going to be over soon, all right? Now that we know that Colleen has Spencer, all we have to do is find them.
Nikolas: Okay.
Detective Rodriguez: Mr. Cassadine, have you heard from your son's nanny since the abduction?
Nikolas: Have -- what? Have I what?
Lucky: Has Colleen made a ransom demand?
Nikolas: If -- if she had, I would've paid it by now, Lucky. Why are you even --
Lucky: Well, in cases like this, parents are often contacted by the kidnapper and warned not to cooperate with the police.
Detective Rodriguez: Now, I can assure you that could be the worst mistake you could make. So if you're stonewalling out of fear, it's not going to help.
Nikolas: Fe-- fear? Oh, I'm -- I'm afraid, Detective, because some psycho took my son. I -- look, I pray that all Colleen wants is money. Because if she -- if she calls and asks for a -- a ransom, I'll give it to her, no questions asked.
Detective Rodriguez: See, that's what she's counting on. So if she's contacted you, you need to let us know.
Nikolas: She -- she hasn't contacted me, and she won't contact me because it's not money that she wants. It's me that she wants. And because I turned her down, because I -- I ruined her delusion of a perfect little family, she took Spencer to start a new one of her own.
Lucky: Okay, you can't jump to conclusions.
Nikolas: Jump -- "conclusions"? You want conclusions? My son is missing and you guys aren't doing enough to find him.
Detective Rodriguez: You need -- you need to calm down. We're trying to help.
Nikolas: You want to -- you want to help? Then go out there and find my son, instead of standing there asking me questions that I already know!
Lucky: Okay --
Emily: Nikolas, are you --
Lucky: I think you should take Nikolas home.
Nikolas: I'm not going anywhere until Colleen McHenry -- whatever the hell her name is -- is in custody. I'm not going anywhere.
Emily: Look, the best thing we can do for Spencer is just to go home and let the police do their job.
Nikolas: You want me to go? Okay, fine -- I'll go find my son on my own.
Emily: Nikolas?
Nikolas: I'm going to have to launch, Emily.
Emily: Nikolas, please wait!
Nikolas: Just -- just go back to the station, tell Lucky you did your duty.
Emily: Okay, you need to calm down.
Nikolas: No -- no, I don't want to calm down. I'm sick of people trying to tell me to calm down. My son is out there somewhere, alone and scared to death, because I couldn't keep him safe.
Emily: No, that is not true.
Nikolas: Yes, it is. Yes, it is! Everyone tried to warn me, Emily -- you, Helena. Even Jax and Carly -- they lied to me for months because they didn't think I could keep him safe, and it turns out they were right. And I was too concerned with claiming what was mine to listen. How could I -- how could I let this happen to my son?
Nikolas: I -- I brought her into my home, Emily. I gave her access to my son. And now he's -- and now he's gone. He's -- he's gone.
Emily: Nikolas, the police are doing everything they can --
Nikolas: But they're not doing enough! I have to do something!
Emily: You want to do something? You start by pulling yourself together
Phone rings.
Nikolas: Hold on. Hello?
Lucky: Hey, I just finished going through the passenger checklist, and I think I found the alias Colleen was traveling under.
Nikolas: Okay, what -- what flight was she on?
Lucky: It was a nonstop to Denver. It took off 30 minutes after Colleen went through Security.
Nikolas: I'll call my pilot, I can leave within the hour.
Lucky: Denver is a hub for a number of different airlines, including this one. Colleen could've easily caught a connecting flight.
Nikolas: Okay. So, what now?
Lucky: Well, we're checking passenger lists for outbound flights with women traveling with children. So, trust me, there's nothing more you can do.
Nikolas: Okay, I'll -- I'll wait to hear from you. But if you don't find out where Colleen took my son, I'm going to go find him myself.
Colleen: You did so good, Spencer. Those daycare people took one look at you and knew I was perfect for the job. Everything is falling right into place. Now that I have this job, I can save up some money. As long as we keep moving, your daddy will never be able to find us. Hmm. Okay.
TV Announcer: As this storm front moves in and makes its way east, the Denver area should see two to three more inches of snowfall in the overnight hours. A travel advisory is in effect for the north-central mountains.
