Johnny says " This is fucking bad Beth." Elizabeth says " I know why you think I am trying to protect him." Johnny says " I have heard of this family and they make the boogeyman look all cuddly and fuzzy. Even back home in Ireland, they were known there. How the fuck did your family get caught up with them? Because it is a miracle that they are still alive if what I know about them is true." Elizabeth says " What do you know about them?" Johnny says " When I was a child I thought the stories I heard were more like twisted fairytales that your siblings tell you to scare you but when I was 15 years old I saw something that I could never explain. I was stuck on a roof one day and as I was sitting there I saw a man run and leap over sixty feet and then he hopped down a building that had to be at least 55 stories like it was nothing. The next thing I knew I read an article that there was an abandoned warehouse and there were 35 bodies found with no blood left in their bodies it was the abandoned warehouse that was a few buildings over. After that, I never went to that side of town again. It was just me and my two sisters. Our parents abandoned us so we left and came to America.
Based on this journal, your birth mother gave birth to you with your birth father at her side and immediately left because it was not safe. It says that by 22 your transformation would start but because you are pregnant it accelerates the process and your pregnancy." Elizabeth says " The best part is that the family would expect me to marry the father of the child and force him to turn and if he refuses they would force me to kill him. My mother wanted me to have a human life as much as possible and she tried to be a good person but she gave in. She did not want that life for me and these children will be extra special because there are three of them and that is even unheard of in her family. If she would stay around me she would not be able to resist and she would take me to her family and I would have no humanity at all. But she is coming for me and If I want to protect my children then I have to leave them so that she never finds out about them." Johnny says " So when you said you want to leave it was never about taking the children. You are going to leave them with their father and disappear." Elizabeth says " I know that my actions lately may not seem like it but I never stopped loving Jason. I just wanted him to make me his priority and fight for me. I know he is an honorable man and he will do the right thing. I cannot have him sacrifice his life for me. I know he will want to figure out a way out but based on how fast this pregnancy is moving I will give birth in less than two months and I cannot risk her family finding out about these children or Jason. So will you help me?"
Johnny says " I do not like this but children come first and I know that is what you are doing. But if we are going to do this we need Francis' help because he is also familiar with this type of thing. He lost his accent but he is actually from Romania but changed his last name." Elizabeth says " Okay I trust you and Jason can never find out." Jason says " Find out what?" Elizabeth says " Holy fucking shit you are so damn quiet." Jason says " Do not deflect Elizabeth." Elizabeth says " Would you relax? I was actually going to wait until the kids were born and spring it on that Johnny is going to be the Godfather to our little princess." Jason says " Absolutely fucking not. I am not entrusting our little girl to a man who has slept with half of New York." Johnny says " Hey I went on dates with half of New York and that does not mean I slept with all of them. I have some class and I will teach her to look at men like her Daddy." Jason says " Excuse me, O'Brien. I can on my hand the number of women I dated and as her father I will teach her to look out for men like you." Elizabeth says " Okay boys to your corners I will teach her how to have Daddy and her uncles wrapped around her finger."
Johnny gives Jason the finger and says " I am going to my post. Thank you Elizabeth for the honor and Morgan suck it." Elizabeth says " Oh did you bring me gifts because I see bags by the front door." Jason shyly says " I got pregnancy books because I wanted to be prepared for multiples." Elizabeth kisses his cheek and says " Thank you, that is adorable. Ooh name back that is super helpful. I think to be fair, how about you come up with the first names and I come up with the middle names." Jason says " What about the last names?" Elizabeth says " I figured they can have both." She goes and gets a notebook and pen opens the book and starts to hum as flips through the book. Jason comes over and sits next to her and asks " Are we going to address the elephant in the room? " Elizabeth gasps " Did the literal Jason Morgan idiom?" Jason says " Whatever dork I am trying to be serious." She waves him on and says " I want to figure out how we are going to do this." Elizabeth says " Jason you are the one who has to make a choice, not me. I am divorcing Ric and I told you that I am willing to accept your protection for them but we are not going to be one big happy family. You are in love with another woman and I made my peace with that. You are the one who tells her that are having children with another woman and if she forgives you and stays with you then okay. I just want my children to not be treated poorly. I want them to know their siblings and you of course."
" Elizabeth, this is not easy for me. I know I made a choice when I slept with you and even if I weren't pregnant I would still not regret it because I am in love with you." Elizabeth shakes her head " Jason please don't do this okay? I know this is not easy. You are going to have four children by two different women and they are going to be the same age. But I told you that you need to let me go." Jason says " No not unless you tell me that you do not love me." Elizabeth looks down and sniffles " I don't love you, Jason." Jason says " Look me in my eye and say that." Elizabeth you have to do it because if you don't he will search for you if you leave and you have to make him think you don't want your children. You have to be strong and let him go. Before she can respond the phone rings and he mutters damn it. He answers it and his face reveals nothing. He finally hangs up the phone and slowly turns to her. " I just got an interesting phone call from Stan and he told me that you told him not to bother looking into your background. What to tell me why?" Elizabeth says " Because I know the truth now and it is no longer necessary. So drop it." Jason says " What do you not want me to know?" Elizabeth huffs and says " Fine I found out that I am adopted and that my father is my grandfather, my sister is my aunt, my brother is my father, and that my mother is dead. Happy now asshole."
