Liz appears and wants to talk to Jason and she tells him that it's really important. He's not real interested in talking to her at the moment. They go inside his penthouse and Liz tells him how much he means to her. She begs him to please don't hurt Zander. Jason says he's the enemy and Liz says she understands but Zander acts now and thinks later and that he's a kind and generous person.

Just say what she wants and he swears to God it's hers. She says she wants all of him but he can't give it. She says she's not blaming him it's just how he is. No matter how good his intentions are he shuts the door to her over and over. It was for a year last time and she begged and pleaded for him to let her in but he wouldn't but all Alexis' had to do was ask. He says he doesn't love Alexis he loves her and wants to be with her. She says responsibility comes first for him and that if Alexis was pregnant with his child, he would have left her. He says no but Carly doesn't believe him. He says he'd never leave her.
