General Hospital (1963– )

Ted King: Lorenzo Alcazar, Luis Alcazar

Quotes 

• Lorenzo Alcazar : Carly is irrelevant.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Yeah, and I'm the Queen of England.

• Lois Cerullo-Ashton : My daughter would kill me for being here. She's right. You're dangerous. And I could end up getting killed in the crossfire.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : That's true.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : At the very least, I'll probably end up with a broken heart. But, I can't seem to stop myself. Because I want something with you.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Look, if you're frightened, you should run. You should listen to your instincts.

• Lois Cerullo-Ashton : You scare me, Lorenzo. And not in the violent sense. I'm scared of you - your heart, the look in your eyes, and the way I'm starting to feel.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Look, if I was a good person, I would ask you to leave. I'd freeze you out. You'd be a lot safer that way. And I'm sure, happier in the end. But I think it's obvious by now I'm not a very good person.

• Lorenzo Alcazar : Look, I know you and Sonny are old friends, but this is a long way from Bensonhurst, and he's grown up to be a killer.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : And what are you?

  Lorenzo Alcazar : The same, as I've tried to warn you. Sonny and I can be alike. I guess.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Well, that much you got right. Yeah, you both waste your talent and gifts on a brutal, ugly profession that doesn't get you anything but money and an early death.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : You'd think it would work out that way, wouldn't you? But it's the people around me who keep dying - something else I happen to have in common with Sonny - although he still has some family left.

• 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.

• Lois Cerullo-Ashton : I'm not defending Sonny.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Lois, Don't.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Just hear me out.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : You're going to tell me how Sonny loss his temper, that he didn't mean it, he's really a good guy, and I know you believe that because you're generous enough to believe the same thing about me. You know what? You may be right. There may be some thin veneer of decency in both of us. But Sonny will kill to get his way and I will kill to survive. So at the end of the day, one of us is going to be eliminated.

• 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.

• Justice Ward : There's no way they could've survived that fall. Sonny and Carly are dead.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : That's a lie. Carly's not dead.

  Nikolas Cassidine : Hey, you go and you lose your chance to be evacuated.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : I don't give a damn. I'm going to find Carly. She's alive.

  Justice Ward : Where are you going?

  Ric Lansing : Sonny's my brother, I got to help him.

  Justice Ward : Sonny's dead. Think about it.

  Ric Lansing : We don't know that!

  Justice Ward : You have a wife and a baby on the way. They need you. You don't have the right to risk your life anymore. Sonny wouldn't expect that from you.

  Skye Quartermaine Jacks : The helicopter's landing. We have 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.

• Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Yeah, I know your type, Mr. Lorenzo Alcazar. Beautiful manners, not hard to look at. There is something very fundamentally decent about you that marches hand in hand with something very fundamentally dangerous. Which is what makes gangsters bad boyfriends and even worse business partners.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : I'm not a gangster.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Because even with the best of intentions, which I'm sure yours are, their lives depend on secrecy and lies. They're used to getting whatever they want at any cost. They are basically spoiled, overgrown 6-year-olds running around with guns. And what sensible woman would want any part of that?

  Lorenzo Alcazar : What if I told this sensible woman that I have a master's from oxford?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Well, then I would say congratulation on your intellectual pursuits. But that a well-read gangster is still a gangster. And I have learned something in my life.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Mm-hmm.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Yeah - I don't accept money from shady characters.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : You know, I don't think I've ever been called a shady character before.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Well, then, you're long overdue - no offense.

• Lorenzo Alcazar : Hey, glad you called. Your timing was perfect. My plane just touched down. I had to go to South America on business. This isn't social, is it? What happened?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : You need to brace yourself, Lorenzo.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : OK.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : This isn't going to be easy to say, so I'll just say it. Your niece is dead.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Sage is dead?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Lorenzo, I am so sorry.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Tell me what happened.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Brooke Lynn called me. When that phone rang in the middle of the night, I knew it couldn't be good. Sage was over at the Quartermaine house with Brookie and Dillon and Georgie and their friend Trent, too. They were trapped there because some truck crashed and blocked the main gate. Some maniac got in the house and started killing people. First Sage, then Trent, rest their souls. Apparently, this woman is a total nut job.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Woman?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Someone named Mary Bishop.

• Lorenzo Alcazar : Alexis Davis got away with Luis murder. Mary Bishop is not going to do the same with his daughter's. One way or the other, every person responsible for her death is going to pay.

• Ric Lansing : Don't do it.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : Do what?

  Ric Lansing : You want to avenge your niece.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : I want justice to be served.

  Ric Lansing : Yeah, well, that's my department, Mr. Alcazar, not yours. So I'm only going to warn you once. Stay away from Mary Bishop.

• Lois Cerullo-Ashton : What was I thinking? Showing up at your door, trying to reach out to you, one human being to another in your time of grief?

  Lorenzo Alcazar : You came here because you feel guilty for asking me to sign over the rights to my dead niece's poem before the dirt is even fresh on her grave.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : You really are the heartless bastard that everybody warned me about!

  Lorenzo Alcazar : And all those warnings just made you want to fly closer to the flame. Don't blame me if you got burned.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Why are you doing this? I wanted you, you wanted me back.

  Lorenzo Alcazar : And now I've had you. Let's just say we satisfied our curiosity and just leave it at that, all right?

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Gladly.

• Lorenzo Alcazar : I owe you a profound apology.

  Lois Cerullo-Ashton : Gee, I wonder why. Maybe because you used me for sex and then pitched me out into the night like yesterday's garbage?

• 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!
