Lucky: Here we are. Here you go, Cam.
Elizabeth: Thanks.
Nikolas: Hi. Uh -- we got a message from Lulu saying to meet you here.
Lucky: Yeah, she sent us home from Kelly's.
Nikolas: Well, what's it about?
Lucky: Um --
Elizabeth: Hey, do you want to help me get the kids ready for bed?
Emily: Yeah, sure. Sounds great.
Lucky: Yeah, go with Emily.
Nikolas: What -- what is it?
Lucky: Dad -- he tracked Mom down. She's at Roselawn.
Nikolas: Is she all right?
Lucky: Yeah, as far as we know. Well, what are you doing?
Nikolas: Calling Alexis.
Lucky: No, no, hold off.
Nikolas: Why?
Lucky: Dad -- he's going to grab Mom tonight and run. They're going to stop by here in a few minutes and say goodbye.
Nikolas: And we're supposed to be okay with that?
Nikolas: Look, no one wants Baldwin to be Laura's guardian, but we need to allow the appeals process to work here.
Lucky: Yeah, but my dad doesn't trust the legal system for obvious reasons.
Nikolas: Well -- Lucky, Luke runs off with Laura, that's it. There's no appeal, this becomes a criminal case -- that's it.
Lucky: Yeah, my dad doesn't care.
Nikolas: Well, he's not the only player here, Lucky. We need to think about what's best for our mother.
Elizabeth: You told him?
Lucky: Yeah.
Emily: Elizabeth told me.
Nikolas: Well, I think it's a terrible idea.
Lulu: Hey, did I miss Dad and Mom?
Nikolas: No, you didn't, but I can't allow Luke to do this.
Lulu: Why? It's what Mom would want.
Nikolas: Sit down.
Lulu: Uh --
Nikolas: I know this entire experience has been -- it's been terrible for you, and I don't want to make it worse, but let's be honest. Luke hasn't always made the best decisions regarding our mother, and taking her out of what is now a safe environment is a mistake.
Lucky: He blames himself for the shape she's in.
Nikolas: That doesn't give him the right to take her out of the hospital!
Emily: Okay. I think now would be a good time to get some dinner, yeah?
Elizabeth: I agree, yes.
Emily: All right, we won't be long.
Elizabeth: Can you listen for Jake?
Lucky: Yeah, I will.
Lulu: Mom would want Dad to do this.
Nikolas: Then why did she appoint me guardianship instead of him? Because she knew -- because she knew that I would take the safest course.
Lulu: Okay, all right -- you're not getting this, so listen. I'm not going to let Scott Baldwin have any control of our mother no matter what I have to do, so if Dad doesn't take her out of town tonight, it's going to be me. That's your choice -- Dad or me.
Nikolas: Okay, Lulu, then do you know something that we don't?
Luke: I know -- don't ask.
Luke sighs.
Luke: Okay. Your mother's in the car. If you're going to say your goodbyes, do it now.
Nikolas: Luke, I have serious concerns about this, and not just for Laura but for Lulu.
Luke: Well, I've explained all of this to Lulu and she's agreed to it.
Nikolas: Well, where do you plan on taking her?
Luke: Just know that she'll have the best possible care and that I'll bring her back as soon as it's safe.
Lucky: We'll keep fighting things on this end. I'll call you if anything changes.
Luke: I'll keep in touch.
Lulu: Your guys' turn. Be safe, be smart.
Luke: Oh. Yeah, just like when we used to go ice fishing.
Lulu: Yeah, that's what you always said.
Luke: Apparently, you listened.
Lulu: Will you tell Mom that I love her, every day?
Luke: I promise, princess.
Lulu: Well, then you should go, then, before Scott figures it out.
Lulu sighs.
Luke: Lulu? Be safe, be smart.
Lulu: I will.
