Ric went into Kellie's room.
The sedative had begun to wear off. Kellie twitched as if she was engaged in some kind of struggle. Carly sitting by Kellie's bed.
"How is she?" Ric said.
"Why do you care?" Carly asked.
"Because she's.." Ric started to say and realized Carly didn't know, "Jason and Sonny haven't told you?"
"Told me what, Ric?" Carly asked, "Sonny's in some kind of mood and there's some kind of DNA test no one will bother to explain to me. Jason tells me to mind my own business and now you know what the hell is going on. Could you fill me in?"
"I found Sonny in the chapel," Ric said, "He started saying things that made no sense. He had to fill me in. The DNA test was between Kellie and Morgan."
"She's Sonny's daughter" Carly said, "Did he know?"
Ric shook his head, "My brother can't even find the words to pray right now."
"He's blaming himself isn't he?" Carly asked. Ric nodded. "Do you want to sit with her?"
"Yeah," Ric said, "I'll sit with her for awhile." Carly left.
"We've never met before," Ric said, "I guess I'm your uncle. I really feel like I should say something else, but I don't know what."
"It would help if you'd wake up, use that smart mouth of yours I've heard about," Ric said, "Could you help me out with this conversation."
"The least you could do is wake up to spite my brother," Ric said, "To be honest I'd like to see you give my brother grief. Sonny makes it extremely hard to let people into his life and I have feeling you'd make it difficult to let him into yours."
"Give me a taste of my own medicine," Sonny said, coming into Kellie's room.
"Something like that," Ric said.
"If it means she comes out of this, then I'll have to accept that," Sonny said.
"And when she tells you she wants nothing to do with you," Ric said, "You'll have forgotten we ever had this conversation."
"No," Kellie mumbled. She started thrashing more violently.
"The sedative's wearing off," Ric said.
"No, Ethan, Don't," Kellie said louder.
"Kellie, Ethan can't hurt you," Sonny said, "He's not here."
Kellie's pleads yelling, "Please, don't Ethan, please no, stop." She thrashed more violently as if someone was restraining her
Sonny stepped closer. He tried to grab her arms to keep her from hurting herself. She tried to deck him.
Patrick came in, "We'll have to sedate her again." He took the syringe and tried to give it to her. She thrashed and knocked it out of his hand.
Kellie starts screaming for Ethan to stop. "We'll have restrain her," Patrick said.
"Ric, can you find Carly?" Sonny asked.
"Sure," Ric said, leaving.
Some orderlies came into the room and put restraints on Kellie. Despite the restraints her thrashing seemed to get worse. "Please Ethan just let me go," she sobbed. She screamed.
"I can't watch this," Sonny said leaving the room.
Patrick tried to give her the sedative again, but was unsuccessful. She thrashed more violently with restraints on.
"Oh my god," Carly said.
"We can't sedate her, no one can get close enough to," Patrick said.
"Take the restraints off," Luke said, entering the room.
"She's a danger to herself and anyone around her," Patrick said.
"Is she worse than before you put the restraints on?" Luke asked.
"Yes, but," Patrick said.
"Than take them off," Luke said.
"Why?" Sonny asked, coming back in the room.
"I take it you followed my advice and didn't read the files I gave you," Luke said, "When Slinger was raped, Ethan had kidnapped her and handcuffed her to a bed."
"Are you sure about this, Luke?" Carly said. Luke nodded.
"Take the restraints off," Carly said. Patrick did and the thrashing lessened. Kellie's cries were down to a whimper now.
"How long was she.." Sonny started to ask.
"Three days," Luke said, "Patrick, don't sedate her. Let her come out of it on her own."
"Look, you're not a doctor," Patrick said.
"I was right about the restraints. Now everyone clear the room and leave Slinger alone," Luke said.
"What the hell was that about Spencer?" Sonny asked, "What gives you the right to make medical decisions for my daughter."
"Only my niece has that power, if I recall. If you'd read the file I gave you, you'd know when the cops found her she was in a state similar to this. Ethan kept her heavily sedated when he wasn't there," Luke said, "They threw Slinger into a padded cell until she came out of it."
"I'll kill the bastard," Sonny said.
"Why didn't you tell us Kellie was Sonny's daughter?" Jason asked, coming into the conversation.
"It wasn't my secret to tell," Luke said, "Besides, I wanted to see how long it would take for you two monkeys to figure out she'd pulled one over on you."
"Luke," Sonny started to say.
"It doesn't matter who didn't say what," Ric said, "It won't do Kellie any good right now."
