Q Mansion – Den

Tracy tells Luke that if that happens, Lucky will be fine because he’s got Luke. They hug. Far be it from me to mar a scene by pointing out a little error there, but I have to. When Luke “lost” Laura, Lucky was already and adult and Lulu had been SOARSed to the age of 14 and was practically being raised by Lesley so I’m not sure where Luke gets to say his situation is the same as Lucky’s.

Not Starbucks – Office
Kate finishes her phone call. Sonny remembers that she studied French in high school. He asks why she changed her name. Trouble with the law? She says that was his forté. She’s never even had a parking ticket. He remembers when she used to be bad. She tells him his memory is unnerving. He asks her if her magazine is a big deal. She says it is. He says it doesn’t surprise him. She would always memorize what the ladies were wearing when they’d take the subway in to Manhattan and then she’d go to thrift stores and buy designer knock-offs. He asks her again why she changed her name. He says that his ex-wife changed her named from Caroline to Carly. Kate says it speaks volumes about a person who changes from Caroline to Carly. She guesses spandex and animal print. Sonny says Carly’s hot and dresses to reflect it. He asks why she left “Connie” behind. Kate says she legally changed her name before she went to Princeton. Her parents eventually understood. Sonny asks why Kate Howard. Kate says that Katherine Howard was the 5th wife of Henry VIII. The name sounds familiar to people and it projects the image of class and good background. Sonny says the problem is that it’s a lie. It’s not who she is. Kate says it is who she is. Connie no longer exists. He says that Connie was supposed to run away with him, but never showed. Why is that? He waited for her all night, but when she never showed, he went to her house. He said she came out the next morning, looking fine. Kate says that toothpaste and ice are the surefire remedies to deal with puffy-from-crying-all-night eyes. He asks if her parents caught her. She says she caught herself. She ahd a bag packed and had the money but realized that if she ran away, she’d be running away from her dreams and she wasn’t going to do that even for Sonny. He asks why she never told him that. She says that he was all that she could think about and that she was afraid that he’d try to talk her out of it and she’d listen.

Jason can’t because he’s not on the approved family list. Spinelli says not to doubt the Jackal. He knocks on the door. Epiphany comes out and asks what Spinelli wants. Spinelli says Jason’s on the list. Epiphany looks at the list. “Well, look at this. Dr. Ford, who isn’t a pediatrician nor a gynecologist, and who’s never set food in the maternity wing since he started working here, approved Jason to hold the baby.” She gives them both a stern look. Jason has the good grace to look sheepish. Spinelli looks stupidly happy. She lets Jason go in, but she tells Spinelli he better not pull another stunt like this again.

In the nursery, Jason picks up Baby Boy and promises him that he’ll have the best life possible. He says he’ll always love him.
