Kate: Well, I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited to see how your father's business works.
Michael: Why?
Kate: I -- you know, I'm interested in the way other people do business, right? I know a lot about fashion. I know absolutely nothing about the coffee industry.
Michael: Don't pretend. You and I both know my dad's real job has nothing to do with coffee.
Kristina who was quite for a moment just nodded at her brothers statement
Max: I don't like this, Mr. C. You need a couple of guards around you just as a precaution.
Sonny: Max, tonight is legitimate business. Michael, Kristina, and Kate are going to be there. So what do you want?
Max: Okay, look. I'll be in the background. I'll keep my distance. You won't even know --
Sonny: Max, I appreciate your concern. It's very nice. But you know what I want you to do? Take the night off.
[Knock on door]
Milo: Miss Davis.
Sonny: Let her in.
Alexis: This will only take a moment. I'm sorry.
Max: I'll bring the car around.
Sonny: You know, I don't want to say I'm in a hurry and I gotta go, oh, but I gotta go, so --
Alexis: A dead body was found after the explosion, in the water under the cannery. What do you know about it?
Sonny: Uh, not a thing. But if you got any more questions, can you ask me tomorrow? 'Cause tonight I got important plans with my son and our daughter.
Alexis: you make sure she's safe, got it. I want extra protection at the warehouse.
Sonny: don't worry everything will be safe
Kate: Michael, sometimes you think you know things as facts, and it turns out they're not really true at all. Like when you thought you needed to protect your mother and Morgan, and you decided to buy a gun.
Michael: I'm sorry.
Kate: Okay, Michael. I didn't say it so you'd apologize again, all right? You've already done that, and I believe you. I accept it.
Michael: But it was stupid.
Kate: Well, the instinct to protect your family is a good one. We all want to protect the family that we love, the people that we care about. But I think that we can both agree that you kind of went about it in the wrong way, right? Lying to everyone, including your parents, especially your parents. Hiding a gun.
Michael: I should -- I know I shouldn't have left you. I know I should have called 911. But I looked down and saw all this blood on my hands. I got scared.
Kate: I know, Michael. I know. It's okay, all right? It's okay to be scared. Michael, you're just a boy. Like it or not, there are rules for kids that are different from adults, all right? You can't drink. You can't drive. You can't vote. You can't own a gun. But there is a bright side to everything, I promise you. Because you know what? In the past, your dad's job may have included violence, but that's all gonna change. And you get to be a part of that change.
Alexis: The dead guy was I.D.'d as a Randall Compton. His last address was in Martha's Vineyard, and we have reason to believe that he had connections to Ric's girlfriend, Marianna.
Sonny: Well, that's probably who you need to speak to.
Alexis: No, she's gone. She left town. In a hurry, I might add.
Sonny: I don't know any of these people. I mean, talk to Ric, because I'm sure Ric knows everything, right?
Alexis: Typically, when a dead body is involved, you are, too.
Sonny: Alexis, I don't know Randall whatever, and it's been, you know, a long time since I've been to Martha's Vineyard. Anything that has to do with Ric really doesn't interest me, so...
Alexis: Compton was killed by a blow to his head, which could have been caused by debris from the explosion.
Sonny: It's still not my problem.
Alexis: However, Kate was shot nearby, and the shooter was never found, so is it possible that you got to him first and had him taken out?
Sonny: Shh. I got to say -- there's something I gotta tell you, okay?
Alexis: If this is a confession, you need to call a lawyer.
Sonny: No, this is -- this is not something I would be telling the D.A. The only reason I'm telling you is because you are the mother of one of my children
Alexis: Obviously, this sounds important.
Sonny: Yeah, I want to be able to trust you and confide in you because this is --
Alexis: Just say it, all right? Because when you do this, it makes me really nervous.
Sonny: I don't -- I don't want you to, you know, look, I don't want you acting on this information in a formal capacity. I would not tell the D.A. this. I wouldn't --
Alexis: Okay, you can trust me as our daughter's mother.
Sonny: Michael shot Kate.
Alexis: On purpose?
Sonny: No, no. It was an accident. He -- for whatever reason, he felt that he had to protect Carly and Morgan, and after Emily and Leticia were murdered, he bought a gun off some punk.
Alexis: He bought a gun?
Sonny: Yes, he bought a gun.
Alexis: He's 12.
Sonny: Well, I mean...
Alexis: He's 12. He bought a gun, and he had it in the house with his little brother. Man. Oh.
[Laughs]
Sonny: Okay, you know what? I know why you kept Kristina from me early on, and I know that my life is -- is not great, okay? And I know that it hurt Michael and you're worried that it could hurt Kristina. But I'm telling you, I'm promising you on my children's lives, that I am changing all that.
