Anna: "S-c-o-r-p--o. Scorpio, like the sign.
Robin. Yes, I told you, she's there with the medical group. What? That's the
number that I just called. They told me that I should try you. Ooh!" (She
screams)
Edmund: "Want me to get you the one from the den?"
Anna: "I don't know."
Edmund: "Still having trouble getting through to Robin? Well, you mind if I give
it a try?"
Anna: "Oh, I don't need you to dial the number for me."
Edmund: "The real trouble is you don't want to call Robin."
Anna: "She's happy, she's busy. She doesn't need her crazy mother calling her to
give her more stress."
Edmund: "Anna, this is the news we've been waiting for. We've all been waiting
for this."
Anna: "I... I know. Ye yes, I've been waiting for this. I've been waiting. And
here it is, all of it, all of it. All of it."
Edmund: "Anna? Hey. Hey. Shh, shh."
Brooke: "Hello?"
Edmund: "Hi, Brooke. Come on in, come on in."
Brooke: "Uh, I have some things from the office, but it certainly can wait. I can
come back."
Anna: "No, please, God, don't leave on my account. I just -- I'm being
self-indulgent."
Edmund: "No, forget it. Listen, you...
both of
you stay, okay? Brooke, uh... Anna just had a major memory breakthrough."
Brooke: "Oh. Oh, Anna, that's... that's wonderful."
Anna: "Well, if you think it's wonderful, you should try making sense of it all."
Brooke: "You mean everything came back to you, all at once?"
Anna: "Yeah."
Brooke: "Oh, my God. I can't even imagine that."
Anna: "I've been waiting for it, you know? But, uh, some of it's a little hard to
handle. I did lose my husband, Brooke."
Brooke: "You remembered how your husband died?"
Anna: "I mean, it was a long time ago, but..."
Edmund: "Everything will sort itself out, Anna."
Brooke: "Of course. You just have to give it some time."
Anna: "Yeah. I have every intention of being all right."
Edmund: "Anna's been trying to reach her daughter."
Anna: "She's here. She's in New York. She's at a medical conference."
Edmund: "You know, there's no reason why you can't visit her there. I could take
care of everything... a car service, plane ticket, whatever you need."
Anna: "I'll work it out, Edmund, thanks."
Edmund: "Well, seriously, I mean, you don't want to accept it from me, I mean,
I'm sure your sister, Alex, would be more than happy..."
Anna: "Stop it. That's all any of you do is help me. And I take, take, take.
Well, that stops now. I'm not an invalid. That's over with."
Brooke: "No one is judging you, Anna."
Anna: "I am!"
Edmund: "Okay. You don't have to decide anything right now."
Anna: "Why not? I can't... I can't stand living like this. I mean, I was trained
to be a... a.. at the very least, self-reliant. When I was married to Robert, I
took care of myself."
Edmund: "Okay, so now you just have people who care about you."
Anna: "You don't know me, Edmund. That's the worst part of all this is seeing
what I've become. Oh. I need to get back to who I was, my old life, now... oh,
now."
Edmund: "Does that mean you want to go back to Port Charles?"
Anna: "Port Charles? I don't know. I'm not sure that there's anything left of my
old life."
Edmund: "Well, whatever you decide, if you want it to be, Wildwind will still be
your home."
Anna: "No. I don't want it to be. You've made a wonderful life here for yourself
and your children, but that's not what I want for me."
Edmund: "You seem so sure."
Anna: "Suddenly, I am."
Edmund: "Suddenly"? Maybe you've known all along."
Anna: "I wasn't strong enough to find something else for myself. But I have to."
Edmund: "And you will. Got a lot of options open now."
Anna: "You're a wonderful, generous man. You've been very good to me."
Edmund: "Anna?"
Anna: "Oh! Oh!"
Edmund: "Anna?"
Brooke: "What's the matter?"
Anna: "This is so stupid."
Jake: "Hey, Edmund."
Edmund: "Hey. Hi."
Jake: "What's wrong?"
Edmund: "Uh, Anna. I'm a little worried about her. Her head is throbbing."
Anna: "No, it's fine. I'm better. It's over."
Edmund: "Look, I'm not taking any chances. She just got her memory back."
Jake: "Well, yeah, you did the right thing. Come with me."
Anna: "No, this is so not necessary."
Jake: "Oh, come on."
Anna: "Please. You don't have to wait."
Edmund: "We'll be here when you get back. Just go."
Anna: "Why?"
Edmund: "Because it's a free country. Go."
Jake: "He's right. Let's go."
Brooke: "Do you think it's serious? I mean, basically she seems
okay."
Edmund: "Yeah, it's just the headaches, you know, they brought on seizures
before."
Brooke: "Well, you know what? They'll find out."
Edmund: "Sure."
Brooke: "I'm going to buy you a cup of coffee. And then we can go over the edits
for your article for next week."
Edmund: "What do you mean, edits?"
Brooke: "I mean edits. Come."
Anna: "You must be done. There isn't anywhere else you could prod on me."
Jake: "You know, I had a patient like you this morning. He squirmed through the
whole examination. He was 7."
Anna: "Well, there's nothing wrong with me. I think these headaches are just
being caused through stress."
Jake: "That'd be my guess."
Anna: "Yeah. Of course they are. I've just been worried about my problems."
Jake: "Well, you just got your memory back after all this time."
Anna: "Mm-hmm."
Jake: "That is a big deal."
Anna: "I'll be fine. In fact, I've decided to go and see my daughter."
Jake: "Yeah, long trip?"
Anna: "New York... and she's a medical student, if that makes you feel more
comfortable."
Jake: "Well, I'm sure she's going to be glad to see you, and you can take off
just as soon as the neurologist gives his okay."
Anna: "What do you mean neurologist? What?"
Jake: "Yeah, yeah, he's going to take a look at the... at all the film that we
took."
Anna: "But I thought you said it was stress."
Jake: "Said that'd be my guess. At these prices, you deserve more than a guess."
Anna: "Oh, how long is it going to take?"
Jake: "It's just going to take a day or so. No big deal. I wanted to keep you
overnight, anyway."
Anna: "What?"
Jake: "Just for observation, just to be sure."
Anna: "No, no, absolutely not. I have spent way too much time in this hospital,
anyway."
Jake: "Anna, look, I think your test results are going to be just fine, but
that's not going to solve everything. You've been dealing with an awful lot."
Anna: "But I'm... I'm..."
Jake: "Too much to do all by yourself." [Anna sighs]
Jake: "I think you should talk to someone about what you're going through."
Anna: "What, you mean a shrink?"
Jake: "Yeah, yeah. I'd like you to talk to a psychiatrist."
Anna: "No, no, no, I can't help you. I'm going home."
Jake: "Anna? Anna? There's no reason to be afraid."
Anna: "I'm not afraid. And you're probably right... if anyone needs mental help,
it's me."
Jake: "No, I'm not suggesting that at all."
Anna: "I just don't have the time, you see? I've lost so many years of my life,
I'm not about to waste seconds of it whining to somebody nodding off behind a
notepad."
Jake: "What about the headaches? They won't just go away."
Anna: "Well, I'll deal with that. I mean, it won't be the first time."
Jake: "Anna..."
Anna: "I have to see my daughter. I need to tell her that her father passed away.
Thank you, and I'll be fine."
David and Anna: "Would you watch where the hell you're going!"
