Robin's Reunited with Her Mum, Anna
After hearing Robin talking to the maid, Anna [who's holding a picture of a young Robin] has a flashback of reuniting with her daughter in the Asian quarter. Anna drops the picture and goes after Robin, who is leaving after being told Edmund was unavailable. Thinking she's seeing things, Robin collapses in Anna's arms. Anna then escorts her back into the living room of Wildwind.  (June 3, 2001)

Robin (smiling big): "You hug the same."
Anna (also laughing): You smile the same, your nose crinkles up." (She touches Robin's nose)
Robin: "It's like a dream."
Anna: "Robin, I couldn't remember anything."
Robin: "Is that why...
Anna: "Oh yeah, oh my god darling, I would have come for you sooner." (She brushes her tears away)
Robin: "So, when they didn't find your bodies. You and daddy... Oh my god, does that mean daddy's alive too?"
Anna: "I don't know. Oh, there's so much to explain."
Robin: "I can't tell you how much I missed you. So much has happened to me since I lost you. So much has changed."
Anna: "I want to know everything."
Robin: "I cried myself to sleep so many nights, wanting you and daddy back."
Anna: "Oh god...(strokes Robin's hair consolingly, repeatedly) Tell me you weren't all alone."
Robin: "No, but it wasn't the same you know, I needed my parents. Mom, do you think it's possible that daddy could be alive too?"
Anna: "I can't say. I... I really I couldn't say." (They wipe away each others' tears)
Robin: "Okay, so how do you know Edmund Grey?"
Anna: "I want to hear about you." (They laugh)
Robin: "Alright, well I live in Paris..."
Anna: "Yeah, I know that. Edmund told me that."
Robin: "I go to school."
Anna: "Medical school. Wow. It's like, um, oh, you'll find out soon enough, who that's like."
Alex (comes into the room) Anna, did I hear you in here?"
Robin (looking at Alex, first puzzled, then stunned to see a look-alike of her mother): "Oh my god..."

Alex, Robin and Anna sit together on the couch.
Alex: "I feel like I know you already."
Robin: "I can't believe my mom has a twin sister."
Anna: "Alex wanted to come and get you."
Alex: "I did, but I worried that you seeing me after you didn't even know I existed and the loss you were feeling for your mother."
Robin: "I understand. Wow. This is not how I thought the day was going to end when I got on the plane in Paris this morning."
Alex: "A lot of things have happened recently that we didn't anticipate."
Anna: "But we have forever to talk about that. I can't stop looking at you."
Alex: "So Anna, you knew it was Robin in the foyer when you heard her voice?"
Anna: "Oh, it was like a fog lifted and all these memories just started tumbling over each other, bang, bang, bang, it was wonderful. I remember the house that we used to live in, with your father."
Robin (grins): "Uncle Mac still lives there."
Anna: "We used to laugh a lot, didn't we? I don't laugh nearly so much anymore."
Robin: "We can work on that one together." (They clasp each other's hand)
Anna: "God, isn't she fabulous? She goes to medical school!"
Alex: "Oh? (they laugh) Did Edmund come to find you?"
Robin: "Yeah, actually. I think he was just trying to see if I knew anything or if there was something that I could say that would help mom remember. But he told me that he was writing an article about her for his magazine."
Alex: "And you didn't believe him."
Robin: "No! I totally believed him. But I wanted to know why he was asking. I don't know, I just. I couldn't stop thinking about you and I booked the next flight." (She remembers and shows her pearl bracelet to Anna) "And I haven't worn this in years, but I put it on today before I left."
Anna: "I remember this, I do."
Robin: "Yeah, I kept it to remember you by. And I could never really bring myself to wear it. Until today. It's kind of weird. Oh my god, Uncle Mac's going to be so happy. We have to go tell all your friends and everyone in Port Charles. I mean, we have to go! Maybe we can go up there this weekend and see everyone?"
Alex: "Robin that's not possible."
Robin: "Okay, well maybe next week sometime?"
Anna: "We can't go to Port Charles. You can't tell anyone that you've seen me."
