Detective Rodriguez: Mac!
Mac: Captain?
Detective Rodriguez: Someone's climbed out. Behind the sign.
Mac: One of the hostages?
Lucky: They're all in black wearing a mask.
Mac: It's one of the perps.
Officer: Hold your fire. Hold your fire till you hear my word.
Lucky: Mac, I don't see a weapon.
Mac: Be ready to shoot if he pulls a gun or makes a threatening move.
Mac: It's sam! Hold your fire, hold your fire!
Sam: The lobby's wired to explode. Get everyone out! You got to get everyone out now.
Lucky: Let's go!
Detective Rodriguez: No, wait, wait. They're going to kill everyone in there if we storm the place.
Mac: What's going on here?
Sam: They're going to detonate. Get everyone out now, Mac. Go! Come on.
Mac: Calm down. Hit them with the tear gas. Go on my command.
Lucky: They're going to know we're coming.
Detective Rodriguez: At least they won't be able to see us.
Screams and gunfire.
Patrick: Come on, Mac, do something!
Lucky: We got to get them out of there!
Mac: Go, go, go!
Alarm.
Lucky: Go.
Nikolas: I need help here!
Patrick: Nikolas, here.
Nikolas: I don't know if the ambulance --
Sam: Jason! Has anyone seen Jason? No!
Patrick: I got her, I got her. Nikolas, how is she?
Nikolas: I don't know -- Emily's done everything she can.
Sam: Jason!
Nikolas: Emily? Emily!
Nikolas: Hey.
Elizabeth: Hi, guys! Hi, baby.
Lucky: You were right about St. Petersburg.
Nikolas: I know. Can you believe helena was about to have him baptized?
Mike: Yeah, I can't -- I can't believe she'd do that just to get her own way.
Bobbie: You'd think time would mellow the woman.
Elizabeth: Oh, my gosh.
Bobbie: Oh, he's fabulous!
Emily: He's so great.
Elizabeth: So where is Colleen?
Emily: She's awaiting trial in Colorado.
Mike: Yeah, I'm sure they'll extradite her back to New York. Hey, big guy.
Lulu: They'd better lock her up for the rest of her life.
Bobbie: Oh. Spencer is looking so good. Dr. O'Donnell's just going to come and have a look and just make sure everything's okay.
Nikolas: Okay.
Emily: Okay.
Bobbie: He's Dr. -- Yes, you do.
Emily: Hi.
Dr. O'Donnell: Hey. Let's take a look at your boy. It's been quite an adventure from what I'm told.
Nikolas: Yes, yes.
Emily: Okay.
Nikolas: We'll be -- we'll be back.
Lucky: Okay.
Lulu: Bye.
Elizabeth: Oh, my God. I can't tell you how hard I've been praying for this moment that Spencer would be brought home safely and Nikolas would find some peace.
Lucky: Yeah, I can't think anything more devastating than the idea of losing your child forever.
Nikolas: So, dr. O'Donnell says he's perfectly healthy.
Elizabeth: Yes.
Emily: And just to prove it, Spencer finished his bottle and he fell fast asleep.
Laughter.
Nikolas: Listen, I was hoping that you all could come over to Wyndemere and celebrate his homecoming. I'd like for his -- his family to be around.
Bobbie: That's a lovely idea, Nikolas, thank you.
Lulu: Yeah.
Mike: Hey, I think Spencer deserves a homecoming, as do you two.
Lucky: We wouldn't miss it.
Elizabeth: I just have to finish my shift, and then I'll be there.
Emily: Okay.
Nikolas: Okay. All right.
Mike: Great.
Emily: Listen, I have to clear up a few things here, but I'll meet you back at the house. Is that all right?
Nikolas: Okay. Yeah, okay. Don't be long.
Emily: Bye. I won't.
Nikolas: You ready?
Lulu: Yeah.
Lucky: Let's roll.
Lulu: Let's go.
Mike: All right.
Bobbie: You want to drive together?
Mike: Yeah, yeah. Why not?
Emily: Bye. Hey!
Elizabeth: I am so glad you're home safe. Oh. I can't imagine --
Emily sighs.
Elizabeth: How terrified you must have been.
Emily: Yeah. It was -- it was a nightmare, but I'm so relieved that things are getting back to normal.
Elizabeth: And what's normal going to be?
Emily: Well, as horrible as it was, Nikolas and I knew that we needed to be together through the whole ordeal. So we just counted on each other, and something good came out of it.
Elizabeth: Good.
Emily: Yeah. What about you and Lucky?
Elizabeth: Oh, you know, just tiny baby steps.
Emily: Okay. So I -- I get it. You're not sure if you can count on Lucky for anything right now. But, Elizabeth, he seems so determined to try.
Elizabeth: Emily, it's so much more than that.
Emily: What?
Elizabeth sighs.
Emily: Is it the baby?
Alfred: Welcome home.
Nikolas: Oh.
Alfred: What a joy to see you and your son together agaiN.
Nikolas: Yes.
Alfred: And you, Miss Lulu.
Nikolas: Thank you, Alfred. We are so glad to be here.
Alfred: Hmm. I have tea set out and your Aunt Alexis called and said she would like to stop by later --
Nikolas: Okay.
Alfred: To see you both if she feels up to it.
Nikolas: Yeah, that's -- that's fine. Would you mind taking Spencer upstairs for me? Norma -- she said that she'd have his bath ready.
Alfred: It would be my honor.
Nikolas: Here, go to Alfred. Go to Alfred. There you go.
Alfred: Hello. Ah.
Nikolas: Thank you very much.
Alfred: Yeah. Uh -- hello. Mr. Nikolas, I can't tell you how I regret not seeing Colleen for what she really was. I feel I let you down. If you need to replace me, I'll -- I'll understand.
Nikolas: No, no. Alfred, Alfred, colleen deceived us all, and please don't speak of leaving right now. I couldn't manage without you. Thanks. Bye.
Lulu: Norma?
Nikolas: Norma, Norma, yes. That was Spencer's first nanny -- she worked for Jax.
Lulu: Ah.
Nikolas: And in my arrogance, I let her go, but she's agreed to live here and help me take care of Spencer.
Lulu: Well, stop blaming yourself. No else could've known.
Nikolas: I'll try.
Lulu sighs.
Nikolas: So how are you? You certainly were eager to help me get this afternoon together. Or is there something else going on?
Lulu: Lucky asked Elizabeth to marry him last night.
Nikolas: Oh. It's a bit soon, don't you think, since the divorce just went through?
Lulu: Yeah, well, that's the point, and at the hospital, Elizabeth wasn't wearing the ring that Lucky gave her. What if she turned him down?
Nikolas: That could be a disaster.
Lucky: Why is that? What are you afraid I'll do?
Emily: Lucky asked you to marry him? That's wonderful. Or not.
Elizabeth: I'm not ready to try again. I don't know if I'll ever be ready.
Emily: You know, I -- I heard about what Maxie did, faking her pregnancy. I just -- I thought if anything, it would pull you and Lucky a little closer together.
Elizabeth: There has been so much damage over the past couple of months, I just don't know if I want to let myself trust him again.
Emily: So you said no last night?
Elizabeth: I couldn't, because I'm so afraid he's going to start using again.
Emily: I know. I don't disagree.
Elizabeth: If he has me and the kids in his life, then he has a better chance of staying in recovery.
Emily: Do you love Lucky anymore?
Elizabeth: I will always love him. I just don't -- I don't know what to do right now.
Emily: I can only share what happened to me. I was convinced that Nikolas and I didn't stand a chance, but little by little, I started to let myself trust him again. And one day, I was amazed to realize that I had fallen in love with Nikolas all over again. There is a chance that you could find yourself falling in love with the same man that you've always loved if you just let yourself.
Nikolas: Lulu and I are concerned. You don't need any more heartache in your life, Lucky.
Lucky: Elizabeth didn't say she'd marry me, but she didn't refuse me. She just said she needed more time and I can give that to her.
Lulu: I -- I was just -- I was worried that you were rushing things.
Nikolas: Yeah, taking your time is the right idea. It worked for Emily and me.
Lucky: Yeah, well, Elizabeth and I have a baby on the way. We don't have the time that you did.
Mike: Hey, guys. Let the party begin.
Bobbie: We brought some goodies from Kelly's --
Emily: Hi.
Bobbie: And more friends.
Emily: Hi.
Nikolas: Hey, you made it.
Elizabeth: Hey, of course. I wouldn't miss it.
Lulu: How did you manage it, Elizabeth?
Elizabeth: Oh, I just switched a shift -- an old trick Bobbie taught me.
Laughter.
Lucky: I'm glad you came.
Nikolas: Thank you all for -- for coming tonight. Um -- Spencer and I have been through some shall we say difficult times in his short life? But I believe that all of the love and prayers and support of his family has brought us home. Now, some of you may or may not know --
Spencer fusses.
Nikolas: At the end of our latest adventure, Emily and Spencer and I found ourselves in a Cathedral in St. Petersburg.
Emily: Hmm.
Nikolas: Yes.
Fussing.
Nikolas: But, anyway, we decided to go ahead and have Spencer baptized there. I wish all of our families could have been there, as does Spencer Alexi Nikolayevich cassadine.
Mike: Wow.
Laughter.
Elizabeth: Wow.
Lulu: Nice.
Nikolas: I owe a special debt of gratitude and love to Spencer's Godmother, Emily. She never gave up on any of us.
Bobbie: To Emily.
Lucky: To my brother, who brought his son home safe and sound.
Nikolas: Thanks.
Lucky: Yeah.
Nikolas: Hey. Hey, hey, it's happy time, not crying time.
Emily: I know. That's why I'm crying.
Nikolas: Listen. After all we've been through, there's nothing in this world you have to fear anymore. You know that, don't you?
Emily: Yeah.
Nikolas: Yeah? I'll never let anything tear us apart again. I promise, okay?
Mike: To family.
Bobbie: Oh.
Glasses clink.
Mike: Look at that. Let's get over here.
Bobbie: Hi. Hello.
Music swells.
