Quotes 

• Sonny Corinthos : Your boyfriend's waiting.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, I'm not sure I can say the same thing about your girlfriend. Yeah, Sam and I, had a little chat. I told her that - that she means nothing to you, and she now knows that, and that she never will.

• Carly Corinthos : OK. I'm down here. It's your turn.come on.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : Oh, boy.

  Carly Corinthos : Come on, Alexis. You have always thought you were better than me. Now's your change to prove it.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : I never said I was better than you, just smarter and classier. You're clearly a better athlete, and you have much better survival instincts. Kind of like a cockroach.

• Sonny Corinthos : There were times, you know, when I wanted to be with you, and - I wouldn't admit it. Then I got shot, and I couldn't hide from it anymore.

  Carly Corinthos : And that's when I realized without a doubt - I still loved you, and I always will.

  Sonny Corinthos : You know when I woke up and saw you there, I thought I had died.

  Carly Corinthos : Did you think you were in heaven or in hell?

  Sonny Corinthos : I didn't care, you know, as long as you were with me.

  Carly Corinthos : That is an excellent answer.

• Carly Corinthos : There is a strange kind of logic in this, though, that we'd end up here together. You - you were always my rock, my emergency brakes, you know that you are my best friend? Did you ever - do you ever think that we could've been more?

  Jason Morgan : Yeah.

  Carly Corinthos : Was there a possibility?

  Jason Morgan : I can't speak for you.

  Carly Corinthos : I'm not asking you to. You're dodging the question, come on. I just - I just need to know. Did you ever feel - did you ever feel more for me?

  Jason Morgan : Yes, I did.

  Carly Corinthos : Me, too. Why didn't we ever pursue it?

  Jason Morgan : There was always something in the way.

  Carly Corinthos : Now there's nothing in the way, Jason, except imminent death. Jason, kiss me good-bye.

• Felicia Scorpio Jones : Hey, speaking from experience, chasing after other people's problems is never a good idea.

  Carly Corinthos : Listen, Sam McCall is my problem. She has already upset my kids, she slept with my husband, and now she's trying to trap Jason. She has got to go, and the sooner the better.

  Felicia Scorpio Jones : How do you think you're going to cover yourself? Don't you think that Sonny's going to be a little curious about your spur-of-the-moment trip to Bailey's Beach South Carolina?

  Carly Corinthos : Look, he's not even going to know that I was gone, all right? And when I come back, hopefully I'll have proof that Sam's not only a liar and a tramp, but she's also a serious threat to my family.

  Felicia Scorpio Jones : Well, it seems like she's hiding a lot.

  Carly Corinthos : Of course she is. I mean, it's got to be something bad, too, otherwise she would be using it to get Jason's sympathies.

• Mitchell Coleman : So, what's in this for me, aside from like, your everlasting gratitude?

  Carly Corinthos : 10 grand.

  Mitchell Coleman : Come on. A good-looking chick like you can come up with something a little bit more creative than that. Can't you? Huh?

  Carly Corinthos : I think you're about to be a dead man.

  Mitchell Coleman : How do you figure that, hmm?

  Carly Corinthos : Because my husband is standing right behind you.

• Carly Corinthos : I know you are upset, but you have no right to order me out of this house.

  Michael Corinthos : Me and Morgan are staying here with dad. It's your fault that you're getting a divorce, so you leave.

• Carly Corinthos : You know that I wish you had never spoken to me in that evaluator? You told me the one thing that I never really needed to know and I have dreaded this day ever since.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : So have I.

  Carly Corinthos : I could have told Sonny. I could have told him right after the fire. I could have told him so many other times when I thought he would understand, but I didn't. I didn't because of you. Because you begged me. You bullied me, you threatened me. And maybe somehow I thought it could stay a secret. Hey, I should have known better. God, I should have known better. I'm telling Sonny. He needs to know he's Kristina's father.

• Carly Corinthos : He is going to do everything he can to help that little girl.

  Ric Lansing : The only thing I am concerned with is the welfare of that child. Custody issues can wait.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, I get it. I see. So Sonny's going to be allowed to help save Kristina's life, but There's no way you're going to let him be anywhere near her?

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : Can we not talk about this now? Can we just - just try to be reasonable?

  Carly Corinthos : Reasonable, right. Right, reasonable is Alexis-speak for do it my way or else. You thought it was reasonable to deceive Sonny, and then I had to be reasonable and keep your little secret. Well, your little secret is out Alexis. You do not get to decide what's reasonable anymore.

• Alexis Davis Cassadine : I'm hoping that you will find it in your heart to help me. If the time comes, you can help Sonny understand that - that my daughter belongs with me.

  Carly Corinthos : OK, Alexis, you don't get it. Will you listen to yourself? The lies are over, sky's falling, and we're all going to have to deal with it.

• Carly Corinthos : Michael, turn around and take that suitcase back upstairs.

  Michael Corinthos : No.

  Carly Corinthos : Michael, your father and I have talked to you about this already. Running away is not a solution.

  Michael Corinthos : I'm not going anywhere. You are.

• Carly Corinthos : I want you to know something, though. No matter what happens, your dad and I - we love you and Morgan. No matter where we live.

  Michael Corinthos : I love you, too. I just don't want things to, you know, change.

  Carly Corinthos : Sweetie, this is a sad but true fact of life here, ok? Change - it's the only thing that you can count on, and it happens, even when we don't want it to.

• Carly Corinthos : Sonny, I'm not angry at you. I'm not doing this for payback. I cannot live in limbo. I can't. And I'm trying to do what is best for everyone, and that - that's why I'm leaving.

• Carly Corinthos : Michael, listen to me. You're a big boy now, right, and sometimes when you're a big boy you have to put aside what you want to do what is best for the people that you love.

• Steven Lars Webber : Sonny has a lawyer, why don't you call him or her and just be done with.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, because in my opinion lawyers are really overrated.

• Carly Corinthos : What?

  Steven Lars Webber : I've worked with some very analytical minds, and very few of them are as fast as yours.

  Carly Corinthos : I told you we're in a hurry.

• Steven Lars Webber : Carly, what the hell are you doing in Ric Lansing's apartment?

  Carly Corinthos : Did the file cabinet burn?

  Steven Lars Webber : You set the fire? Your trying to burn the evidence that he's got on - Carly, are you out of your mind?

  Carly Corinthos : Yeah, well, some people think so.

  Steven Lars Webber : I'll go get the file.

  Carly Corinthos : No, no, no, Steven! You let it burn!

  Steven Lars Webber : No, that's a bad idea, Carly. And you can't be connected to this fire!

  Carly Corinthos : Steven, it's too dangerous! Steven!

• Samantha McCall : What's with the injured-wife routine? You betrayed your husband with another man, his worst enemy, if I've got my facts straight. Sonny's done with you, he's free. So am I. There is nothing left to say.

  Carly Corinthos : OK, well, I wouldn't get all comfy and cozy with Sonny, if I were you. Has be bothered to mention Brenda yet? Because the two of you look enough alike to be sisters. Same height, same build, same dark hair. Although Brenda's was more stylish, but I'm sure that Sonny did not notice that difference in the dark.

  Samantha McCall : Wow, you are some nasty little bitch.

  Carly Corinthos : No, actually, I'm being pretty nice and I imagine that the resemblance to Brenda was also the hook for Jax.

  Samantha McCall : OK, now you're stretching.

  Carly Corinthos : You'll probably have more time with Sonny than you did Jax because Sonny is a practical man. Brenda's gone. So am I. You'll do for now, but don't think that you're in it for the long haul, because you will lose Sonny just the same way you lost out on Jax.

  Samantha McCall : Oh, yeah? Why is that?

  Carly Corinthos : Because you're not Brenda. No one is. Brenda the illusive ghost she is. She's incandescent. Oh, she unattainable and unforgettable and Sonny and Jax, they have her so high up on a pedestal, you cannot see her until she comes back down and is in your face. And let me tell you something else - she always comes back. Always. So, you may be sharing Sonny's bed right now, but just do yourself a favor and never forget that you are a substitute, and you always will be.

• Carly Corinthos : You know, as we get closer to the baby's due date, you go further and further inside yourself. You're more angry, You're more tense and the nightmares they come every night and I wake up to you either fighting demons in your sleep or your downstairs here in the dark. You think you're alone in this, and that breaks my heart. I'm scared, too, Sonny. Yeah, I almost bled to death when Michael was born. And I need you more now than ever, and you're just pulling further and further away. You're right, Sonny. Bad things do happen, as we know. Yeah, you are right about that.

• Faith Rosco : I have to be honest. I just don't get it.

  Carly Corinthos : Go away.

  Faith Rosco : No, not until you explain the attraction. Now, Sonny and Alcazar are two of the most powerful men in the Northeast, and they're chasing around after a glorified piece of trailer trash. What is your secret?

  Carly Corinthos : I won't tell you again.

  Faith Rosco : Oh, come on, Carly, it's just us girls. Tell me, who do you dream about at the end of the day Sonny or Alcazar? Now, I know it's a tough decision. Yeah, they are both powerful, passionate men. Unfortunately for you, neither one learned to share. Otherwise maybe you could have both of them - you know, say, like alternating nights or three on a mattress. What is your private fantasy, Carly?

• Faith Rosco : The truth hurts, doesn't it? You want Sonny for the main course and Alcazar on the site.

  Carly Corinthos : I'm married to Sonny, Lorenzo means nothing to me.

  Faith Rosco : Well, isn't there something in the scripture about lusting in the heart being just as bas as doing the deed?

  Carly Corinthos : Don't quote the bible, Faith, you may burst into flames.

  Faith Rosco : You're the one that's on fire, buttercup. Lorenzo Alcazar is under your skin, and he knows it. He's not going anywhere, and you don't want him to. Oh, and remember - if I can see it, Sonny will, too.

• Courtney Matthews : I shot Brian in the back, Carly, and walked away. I didn't even check on him. What if he's dead?

  Carly Corinthos : OK, you saved your husband's life tonight.

  Courtney Matthews : OK, so that's how it works - kill or be killed? I just did the very thing that scares me the most about Jason.

  Carly Corinthos : Didn't you shoot Coleman once?

  Courtney Matthews : God, are you kidding me? that was self-defense. This was completely different. I wasn't corned, I wasn't being stalked. I didn't think, I just pulled the trigger.

  Carly Corinthos : OK. OK. You listen to me. I shot Tony Jones once in open court trying to protect Michael. I went to the head of the five familles at a meeting with a baseball bat trying to take care of Sonny. We've all done dangerous things at times.

  Courtney Matthews : Carly, Brian is a good person, and I shot him for doing his job. Jason's right, you know? Once your in this life you can't ever walk away.

• Lorenzo Alcazar : So do you hate me now?

  Carly Corinthos : You know, it'd be a lot easier if I did. But even now, after everything, no. Look, Lorenzo, honestly, I wish you well. I just - why don't you go somewhere else and just start over, start fresh?

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Carly, if I left, now, I'd be running, and I refuse.

  Carly Corinthos : But there's nothing left for you here.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Well, having nothing left can be very liberating. You can pretty much take any risk you want when you have nothing left to lose. But I don't expect you to understand you've got a lot at stake - Your children, your husband, even a father now.

• Samantha McCall : I don't want to fight with you, Carly.

  Carly Corinthos : Too late, I asked you a question. How long have you been sleeping with my husband?

  Samantha McCall : Your husband made it very clear to me that his marriage to you was over.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, did he also make it very clear to you that when he takes you to bed, you are just standing in for someone else?

• Carly Corinthos : Alexis, Hey.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : I'm certainly surprised to hear from you.

  Carly Corinthos : Yeah, well, not as surprised as I was to be making the call, but I need your help. Listen, Sonny is trying to get a restraining order filed against me to keep me away from my kids and I need you to fight him in court.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : Your asking me to represent you?

  Carly Corinthos : Yes.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : No.

  Carly Corinthos : Alexis, would you really want Sonny raising your daughter?

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : No, but I wouldn't want you raising her, either. If you and Sonny are getting divorced - again - find somebody else to represent you. Leave me out of it.

• Alexis Davis Cassadine : The cable's breaking.

  Carly Corinthos : OK. OK, we still have some time. All right, if we - if we can get to the next floor, then maybe we can just...

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : What do you want me to do?

  Carly Corinthos : Try and get out of here and - before the cables snap.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : What do you want me to do?

  Carly Corinthos : Do you know anything about hot-wiring an elevator?

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : OK, I'm a logical person, so I'm sure that there's a logical pattern to the way this is wired, so let's see.

  Carly Corinthos : Too bad it's not voice-activated. You could then lecture us out of here.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : I'm surprised you don't know how to hot-wire an elevator.

• Alexis Davis Cassadine : I don't know if it's ironic symmetry or just a cosmic joke that I should be spending what could be the last moments of my life with you.

  Carly Corinthos : Would you just quite yapping?

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : I don't think confronting my mortality should be considered yapping.

• Carly Corinthos : How's Sonny?

  Courtney Matthews : Well, he tore some ligaments in his knee. He's in pain, but he's holding up OK.

  Carly Corinthos : Do you know what number he got? I'm - I'm 23, and I was hoping that he could fly out sooner so he could be with the boys no matter what happens.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : You're not going to die tonight, Carly. I can promise you that.

  Courtney Matthews : Yeah, you know what? For once I agree with him. Listen, we're all going to get evacuated safely. Just try and think positive, OK?

  Carly Corinthos : What number did you get?

  Courtney Matthews : I got 31. So, it looks like I'm going to be in one of the last groups to go.

• Carly Corinthos : What are you doing here?

  Samantha McCall : Hi, Sonny asked me to give you a message. The boys - They're going to stay with him.

  Carly Corinthos : He's going to kidnap the kids. I knew it. He probably has them in the car already. He's probably leaving town right now.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Lucky, send an officer to check the penthouse.

  Carly Corinthos : No, it is too late for that. You get an A. P. B. out on Sonny and arrest this bitch for conspiracy to kidnap my kids!

• Carly Corinthos : I hired a new lawyer, someone who is very qualified to handle this case.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Who is it?

  Carly Corinthos : Alexis Davis.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : She's a madwoman. She is not the right person to get your children back.

  Carly Corinthos : I disagree.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : She put a knife in my brother's chest and pushed him over a balcony, Carly. If there's any justus she'd be doing life in prison.

  Carly Corinthos : OK, trust me. I do not want to work with Alexis. She is really the last person. But she's the only one that can handle Sonny.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Oh, you're assuming because she represented him one time she'll be able to throw him off balance in court? You can't trust her, Carly. She despises you.

• Carly Corinthos : Sonny and I are parents together, and that's as far as it goes. Anything else is over.

  Courtney Matthews Morgan : Why?

  Carly Corinthos : Let's pull one thing out of the hat - Sam.

  Courtney Matthews Morgan : Oh, come on, Carly, you don't honestly believe that he loves her?

  Carly Corinthos : It's got nothing to do with love, Courtney. It's about keeping score. You know how it works. You disagree with Sonny, five points off. You cross him, ten points off. You do something that he thinks is betrayal, ok, you're out of the game. And right now, Sam's playing the game perfectly, ok? So let her enjoy it. She's keeping her mouth shut. She's doing what she's told. Let her have the fun while it lasts. I'm out of it. I am standing on my own two feet.

• Carly Corinthos : So what is the point of your visit here, Jax? You just want to stir things up between me and Sonny?

  Jasper 'Jax' Jacks : Oh, Carly, you can manage that without any coaching form me. I'm here on a different matter.

  Carly Corinthos : Sam, right?

  Jasper 'Jax' Jacks : It does have something to do with her, yes.

  Carly Corinthos : Mm-hmm, yes? Let me guess - it's got to be driving you crazy that another one of your old flames is with Sonny. It's like déjà vu all over again, except it's a trailer park version of the Brenda saga.

• Carly Corinthos : Sonny, didn't you know that I would be here?

  Sonny Corinthos : Yeah, if you got word, yeah. Just like I'd find you.

  Carly Corinthos : And I know you would find me if I was in trouble.

  Sonny Corinthos : I'd find you. I'd save your life if I had to, If I - I'd die trying. That's just he way it is.

  Carly Corinthos : So we've got the crisis situation down. Sonny, why are we so lousy on the day-to-day?

• Sonny Corinthos : I don't see you for years. You show up on my doorstep asking for a favor.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Guilty as charged. But I have to say it's not like you've gone out of your way to stay in touch with me either, mister.

  Sonny Corinthos : Right, right.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : In fact, last time we spoke I think you were getting married to Carly, which was unexpected, to say the least, but it looks like everything's worked out all right. I understand you had a baby.congratulations.

  Sonny Corinthos : Thank you.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Can I see him?

  Carly Corinthos : No. Morgan's sleeping. Maybe some other time.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Oh. What about that other little tyke?

  Sonny Corinthos : He's across the hall with Jason.

  Carly Corinthos : His name is Michael.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Michael. Right. Yes, A. J. 's son.

  Carly Corinthos : No, he's A. J. 's nothing. Sonny's is Michael's legal adopted father.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Naturally. I never intended to imply otherwise.

  Carly Corinthos : Well, then, maybe you should think before you open your mouth and say things that are offensive.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Ohh. Look at you.

• Carly Corinthos : How rude are you?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Come again?

  Carly Corinthos : Well, Sonny's good enough for you to partner up with when you need his - oh, let me think about this, take a wild guess - capital, and now he just seems to be a little too much baggage to carry?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Pretty much.

  Carly Corinthos : How you could call her a friend, I just don't understand.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Maybe because you haven't had enough experience in that area to understand.

• Carly Corinthos : All right, I'm going to lay it on the table - I am a hypocrite, and anything you've done, I have done much worse.

  Samantha McCall : I - I highly doubt that.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh really? Have you ever stolen your mother's husband out of spite?

  Samantha McCall : You did that?

  Carly Corinthos : Yeah, and then I shot him in open court. It really wasn't one of my better days. Tony Jones got what he deserved, but my mother did not. What about you? Hmm? You close with your mom?

  Samantha McCall : I barely knew her.

  Carly Corinthos : Why is she dead?

  Samantha McCall : I have - I have no idea.

  Carly Corinthos : What about ex-husbands? Hmm? I drugged Michael's biological father and I threw him in an alley and then poured vodka all over him.

  Samantha McCall : Really? Why - why?

  Carly Corinthos : Remember Tony Jones I just mentioned? I was hoping he was Michael's biological father, not A. J. , and I was afraid that A. J. was going to push for a paternity test. I didn't want him to, so I made him think that he needed to be in rehab.

  Samantha McCall : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Jason told me that you married A. J. before Sonny.

  Carly Corinthos : Yeah, I did, and truthfully, I regret marrying A. J. a hell of a lot more than I regret drugging him but at the time, I thought I was doing the right thing.

• Jason Morgan : OK, when the bartender gets back, I want you to distract him.

  Carly Corinthos : OK. How?

  Jason Morgan : Just do something you're good at - lie.

• Ric Lansing : Oh, You know what? It must really get under your skin that Sonny's ex-mistress lives right across the hall. She's almost family now, isn't she? And we all know that you don't like anybody getting in your little clan.

  Carly Corinthos : You got a problem with Sam, Ric, get rid of her yourself.

• Carly Corinthos : You have been shot at again. Jason has lost his mind for some reason over Sam, and I seem to be the only one who cares that she is a murderer and an arsonist. And you are telling me to leave this alone. But my family... it feels to me that my family is being threatened, and every instinct that I have is telling me to fight.

• Deputy Sparks : Look, I need some proof that there's really a problem here. If not, I have orders to move the prisoner tonight.

  Carly Corinthos : Orders? You have orders? Who are your orders from? Are they from Sam's doctors? Are they from your boss? Are they from God? Because I think you're a little out of your jurisdiction here. What the hell gives you the right to put a precious baby's life at risk? Is it your uniform? Because you know what? Sam wouldn't even be in this place if it wasn't for - Oh, I get it. I get it. You are trying to deliberately make Sam miscarry so the jury won't have any sympathy for her. You know what? The reason you came all the way up here from South Carolina is to put this woman at risk. It's to destroy her life, and destroy the life of her unborn child!

  Deputy Sparks : I guess I can wait till morning.

  Carly Corinthos : Yeah, why don't you wait someplace else?

• Carly Corinthos : Deputy Sparks has left the building

  Sonny Corinthos : Oh, That was... Thank you.

  Carly Corinthos : You're welcome. It was kind of fun. I haven't pitched a fit in ages.

• Carly Corinthos : I am suggesting you use whatever influence you have over Ric to keep him from charging Sonny with perjury. Because the day he files those charges is the day that I tell the world that Sonny is Kirstina's father.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : Sonny lied to me, he lied to the court. He made a fool out of everyone so his little pregnant girlfriend can skate on a murder charge. He thinks that he's above the law. He's not. And once he's in Prison, he will have a very difficult time of getting custody of anybody's baby. Go ahead, tell him.

• Mitchell Coleman : Mrs. Corinthos. You're the last person I expected to hear from.

  Carly Corinthos : Yeah, well, um, I need you to do something for me.

  Mitchell Coleman : Let me guess. Well, you - role of happy little housewife ain't cutting it? You got a little itch that needs scratching or something?

  Carly Corinthos : I will never, ever be that desperate. I need you to find someone for me.

• Carly Corinthos : So, what about family? You have a wife? You got kids?

  John Durant : You haven't done your homework, have you?

  Carly Corinthos : Well, you never ask a question if you don't know the answer.

• Carly Corinthos : I just really need some time to think. You know, I need to figure out what to do next. Do I really want to know my father? Do I want to know him badly enough to jeopardize the life that we have, you know, our family, the one that we've made together, just so I can reach out to a stranger? I don't know. And if I don't - you know, if I let this go and I just drop the whole thing, then won't I have regrets?

  Sonny Corinthos : I wish I had all the answer for you, but, you know, all I can tell you is you got to trust yourself.

• Carly Corinthos : You have been wonderful. Thank you.

  Sonny Corinthos : Well, that's part of the job.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, right, because loving me is a job, hmm?

  Sonny Corinthos : No. Just sometimes, you know, but there are great benefits.

• Steven Lars Webber : I am a fully practicing physician. Forensics is just a sideline.

  Carly Corinthos : You're investigating my husband. That's why you've been so nice to me and my kids. That's why you've been so friendly.

  Steven Lars Webber : I had no idea you'd be at the docks. I had no idea you'd be at Jake's, I swear!

  Carly Corinthos : Ric Lansing is my husband's half brother, he is trying to put him in jail!

  Steven Lars Webber : Look, I had no idea!

  Carly Corinthos : It's going to be your job to help him!

  Steven Lars Webber : Carly, it's not like that.

  Carly Corinthos : OK, listen to me - do not approach me ever, ever again. Do not talk to my kids. If you see us on the street, you walk to the other side. We cannot be friends. We can't even be polite. Hello! Look at me!

  Steven Lars Webber : Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  Carly Corinthos : If you are still too drunk to understand what is going on - pay attention to me. You pay attention. I have no use for cops.

• Carly Corinthos : You don't - you don't know how many times I've fantasized about this, about my father holding me. It's like fate is playing a cruel joke on me or something.

  John Durant : Why would you say that, Carly?

  Carly Corinthos : Because I can't be in your life, no matter how much I may want to. We cannot have a relationship. I cannot see you anymore.

• Alexis Davis Cassadine : You need to get a job, Carly. You need to take up knitting, you know, run a marathon, volunteer at the kid's school. Just stop obsessing.

  Carly Corinthos : Hey, don't change the subject.

  Alexis Davis Cassadine : You are the subject. You've whittled your life away to just this one little, narrow focus which happens to be your ex-husband. He's already the center of his own universe. Don't make him the center of yours.

• Sonny Corinthos : My relationship with Sam is none of your business, Carly. Stay away from her.

  Carly Corinthos : You're not having a relationship. You're sleeping with Sam because she's a dead ringer for Brenda.

  Sonny Corinthos : Is that what you told her?

  Carly Corinthos : I felt she had a right to know.

  Sonny Corinthos : Really?

  Carly Corinthos : Mm-hmm.

  Sonny Corinthos : Well, you're wrong, as usual, because when I see Sam, I don't see Brenda. I see a beautiful, passionate woman who doesn't lie about who she is or what she wants. Nice change of pace, isn't it?

  Carly Corinthos : Hmm. Well, if she has any sense she will be gone by the time you get upstairs, and if she is dumb enough to stay, then she deserves the heart-stomping that she will eventually get with you. She's not good enough, Sonny. She's not going to be enough for you, because no one ever is. That hole inside of you is so deep and it is so embedded, no woman could ever hope to fill it up. She isn't going to be good enough. She's not going to be loyal enough, and she certainly will not be strong enough to ease your pain or to fix you in all the ways that you are broken. You are wrecked inside, Sonny, and eventually you wreck everyone around you. But not my children, Sonny. You will not do that to my boys.

  Sonny Corinthos : Forget about them. As of now, you have no children.

  Carly Corinthos : Don't you even try it. Michael and Morgan are mine. I carried them, I gave birth to them, and I love them more than anything in this world. And you...

  Sonny Corinthos : You don't love anybody but yourself and Alcazar.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, you are so full of it.

  Sonny Corinthos : Kids are just something you can...

  Carly Corinthos : You...

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Hey, hey, hey, hey!

  Sonny Corinthos : Do me a favor, Al? Keep your slut away from me.

  Carly Corinthos : Oh, you sick - you sick bastard! let me go! You're sick!

  Sonny Corinthos : Yeah, yeah, yeah, take hold of her.

  Carly Corinthos : Shut up! Pig! Let me go! Let go!
