Ric: Here. Yeah. This used to be an old cannery. Now it's pretty much of a tear-down.

Marianna: It's hard to believe a property in this condition could be worth so much to so many people.

Ric: Oh. Location, sweetie, location. Alcazar's piers and waterfronts run for miles in both directions from here. It's the haunted house listing the port charles waterfront. It was a major hub for underworld activity. Luis and lorenzo alcazar created a legacy of filth, corruption, and death here. From what I understand -- this morning I read in the paper that diego, lorenzo's son that we thought was dead, tried to take one of these warehouses and carry on the family tradition.

Marianna: Oh. The energy in here is very bad. I can feel it.

Ric: I'm not surprised.

Marianna: Oh.

[Marianna chuckles]

Ric: You know, if I sign those papers, I could change all that ugly history. You knowfind some investors and turn this place into something good and profitable, legally speaking. What's the matter? Are you cold?

Marianna: No, I just can't explain it. I just feel something, and it doesn't feel like something bad that's already happened here. It just feels like something bad's just yet to come, you know?

Ric: You know, imagine something new and wonderful here, something unexpected.

Marianna: People smiling?

Ric: Yeah. Have you ever been to seattle?

Marianna: Uh -- no, remember, randy kept me on a very tight leash.

Ric: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, there's this marketplace there.

Marianna: You'd make a grocery store here?

Ric: No, it's more than that. It's like a -- it's a whole experience. You know, there's, like, shops and there's these galleries. There's cafes. You know, the place on the corner is so walled in that you wouldn't even know that it's an old music hall. You know? This could be like a -- I mean, we could be sitting right in the middle of a -- an aquarium. Seattle has one of those, too.

Marianna: Yeah?

Ric: You take this whole miles of darkness and turn it into light, you know? Someplace to come and celebrate life.

Marianna: That could take years.

Ric: Yeah? No more than I've already wasted.

Marianna: Hmm. But what if --

Ric: What?

Marianna: Nothing.

Ric: What?

Marianna: It was a terrible thought.

Ric: Oh, no, no, no.

Marianna: Terrible negativity.

Ric: What, what? What, what, what?

Marianna: Ok. What if people like your brother or father try to stop you?

Ric: Oh. Well, let 'em. You know, there's these -- there's these apartments across the street. They're going through this whole gentrification process. We can find a way to change them up --

[Footsteps]

Trevor: Oh, look who's here. The master builder. What are you doing, making the mother of all surveys? What is it that we're calling you these days?

Ric: You know, you're trespassing.

Trevor: Bravo. Bravo. That means you must have signed the deeds. It's a pipe dream, but it's probably one of the most important things you've ever done in your life.

Ric: As usual, trevor, you're the only one who knows what you're talking about.

Trevor: Richard, down deep inside, you know that you don't have the guts, the vision, or a sense of responsibility to bring this project home to fruition by yourself. So it's just going to sit here and rot. It'll be called, "richard lansing's folly."

Marianna: That's a terrible way to speak to your son.

Trevor: I don't think I've been addressing you at all. Richie, pay attention to that small voice in the back of your head. It keeps whispering, "turn the property over to your father. He is going to make you a very wealthy and powerful human being."

Ric: Right, with zacchara blood mone

Trevor: You judge me? On what moral authority do you speak? Come on, richard, cash in. You can retire to a deserted island with miss third world here, whatever --

Ric: Ok, that's it. That's enough.

Trevor: Hey, hands, richard, hands. I'm your father.

Ric: You know what?

Trevor: I'll smack you!

Ric: You want to talk to me, that's fine.

Marianna: No, don'T.

Ric: No, it's ok. It's ok. It's ok, just -- I won't be long.

Trevor: Boy, I must have hit on a nerve. She probably got more tricks in her repertoire than I thought she did.

Ric: That's enough!

Trevor: Richard -- richard --
