Skye: Mr. Jacks, I hope you remember me. Skye Chandler-Quartermaine?
Jax: Yes, of course. Edward's unsuitable granddaughter.
Skye: May I come in? I guarantee you'll be interested in what I have to say.
Jax: Well, you seem very confident, Ms. Chandler-Quartermaine.
Skye: Oh, Skye, please. I like to think we're about to become better acquainted. After all, we do have so much in common.
Jax: Do we?
Skye: Well, my grandfather would love to kick us both out of ELQ, and I loathe and despise Sonny Corinthos as much as you do. Perhaps we could pool our resources and see what we can accomplish.
Skye: Sonny owns 15% of ELQ stock, and, well, I'm sure you'd agree that the company would be much more viable without him. Perhaps you and I could even run ELQ together someday.
Jax: Are you suggesting we plot a takeover?
Skye: Well, I'm always open to future possibilities. But at the moment, I'd like to concenrate on getting Sonny's stock. I understand that, that you've known Sonny for quite a long time and that you have a less than an amiable relationship? According to AJ, you became bitter enemies over a woman.
Jax: It's time for you to get to the point. What's in it for me?
Skye: Revenge. I've seen you in the room with Sonny. Clearly there's no love lost between the two of you. So, what's his Achilles' heel? How do I get him? And will you help me do it?
Skye: What do you say? Shall we bring down Mr. Corinthos together?
Jax: You know, you've got guts, Ms. Chandler-Quartermaine, but you're way out of your league. I'm sorry the trip was wasted.
Skye: Oh, on the contrary. I came down here thinking that Jasper Jacks was a good and decent man, but I've learned so much more, that he's powerful and astute.
Jax: Not easily swayed by flattery.
Skye: I'd be disappointed if you were.
Jax: You know, your pitch is entertaining, to say the least. And your packaging...well, it's quite attractive. But so far, nothing you've offered me holds my interest. You're greedy and manipulative, and they're your good qualities. You're not going after Sonny for the love of AJ, you want his stock. He probably insulted you somehow. Actually, if I had to guess, I would say you threw yourself at Sonny and he turned you down. Now, if even Sonny didn't buy your act, then who am I to disagree?
Skye: I'll tell you what you are, you're an arrogant jerk! You know, we could've made an unbeatable team against Sonny, but you're just too stupid and too blind to see it.
Jax: Good night, Ms. Chandler-Quartermaine.
